[01:45] <oskude> Teh_wrk1n|Dog: i have no idea, all programs that ive compiled and needed tcl library found it automaticly with ./configure...
[01:45] <Jimmey> What's the problem?
[01:46] <Teh_wrk1n|Dog> oskude: thats weird cause it specifically wants libtcl.so :/

[01:50] <Ky0n0> i tried but i have some trubles
[01:51] <mjr> bhrobinson, you have it installed by default
[01:51] <ShoeUnited> lol np NineTeen67Comet. ^_^
[01:51] <Ky0n0> it has no effects

[01:51] <dodijk> Hi! I wonder if someone can help me with an Xgl related issue. When starting gdm using the Xgl server I see nothing but the outline and background of the login screen. This used to work fine and works fine with the regular Xorg server. After logging in the problem is still there. I see only a couple of rectangular shapes like the keyring popping up. Thanks!
[01:52] <oskude> !compiling > bhrobinson
[01:52] <oskude> bhrobinson: if youre compiling you should know that you mostly need *-dev packages...
[01:52] <ShoeUnited> Welp, here's to hoping that I can smack my bios around with this hammer, so that it works.  lol
[01:52] <bhrobinson> thanks.. that is alot easier than selecting them one by one
[01:53] <ShoeUnited> Thanks for the help guys.  This is the best support I've ever recieved. ^_^
[01:53] <bhrobinson> oskude, yeah I know... but trying to get used to all of it... thank you though

[02:02] <khtw> hmmm... no-one know of a low RAM required rescue LINUX CD for PowerPC?
[02:02] <bhrobinson> oskude, you indicated it is required... is that for shell as well?
[02:02] <oskude> bhrobinson: did you install build-essential ?
[02:02] <bhrobinson> oskude, yes

[02:04] <habeeb> I can find the "Budget Cards" and the other one, but not the two last.
[02:05] <fallingdutch> hi all!
[02:05] <bhrobinson> oskude, installing a component through aptitude is to be supported by the software package?
[02:05] <oskude> bhrobinson: what ?
[02:05] <bhrobinson> oskude, why can I not install the virtual package with aptitiude
[02:05] <fallingdutch> how can i add a special device to the partitions i want to install ubuntu on? it just gives me some devices, but i want to add another one
[02:05] <oskude> bhrobinson: what "virtual?" package ?
[02:05] <sana> i just installed ubuntu server for i386 and i can't login as root cuz i didn't set a password...how can i set it ?
[02:06] <oskude> !sudo > sana
[02:06] <fallingdutch> sana, sudo -s -H
[02:06] <bhrobinson> oskude, glibc-2.3.5-0ubuntu1
[02:07] <sana> well i have been using linux platform for 3 months on mandrake 10 , it's ubuntu good for me or i should try something easier ?
[02:07] <oskude> bhrobinson: is that a package name in reposity, or is that a .deb file that you downloaded from somewhere ?
[02:07] <Quackinator> Can anyone see what im typing? or am I just getting ignored?
[02:07] <bhrobinson> sana, they told me not to, but you can easily reset your password by sudo passwd and then log in as root at anytime
[02:07] <PingunZ> Quackinator: Just ignored.
[02:07] <Bogaurd> is there a way i can get a rough idea of where the bulk of the drive on my system is being used up?
[02:07] <bhrobinson> oskude, if you simply run aptitude and scroll through the packages, you will see it located
[02:08] <Quackinator> -_-
[02:08] <fallingdutch> bhrobinson, sana: dont log in as root
[02:08] <Bogaurd> cause my drive is reporting 75% used, but i cant imagine why =\
[02:08] <Bogaurd> i'd imagine more like 30%
[02:08] <oskude> bhrobinson: hmm... i dont use aptitude...
[02:08] <bhrobinson> oskude, I can only assume it is a restricted package...
[02:08] <oskude> bhrobinson: and i cant a package with that name under apt-cache search glibc...
[02:09] <oskude> *find
[02:09] <fallingdutch> does anyone know where i can change the partitions ubuntu will install on?
[02:09] <LoPMX> hi
[02:09] <oskude> fallingdutch: in the installer
[02:09] <bhrobinson> oskude, on desktop install I can simply remove the restriction... not sure how to do it on the shell
[02:09] <LoPMX> when doing anything at command line i get eg:
[02:09] <LoPMX> svn: warning: cannot set LC_CTYPE locale
[02:09] <LoPMX> svn: warning: environment variable LANG is pl_PL.UTF-8
[02:09] <LoPMX> svn: warning: please check that your locale name is correct
[02:09] <fallingdutch> oskude, sure, but i cant select a special device there :-)
[02:09] <LoPMX> how do i fix it? or... how do i install utf8 locale for pl?
[02:10] <oskude> fallingdutch: special device ?
[02:10] <bhrobinson> fallingdutch, why do you not recommend using root at all?
[02:10] <oskude> bhrobinson: do you have non "official" repos activated ?
[02:10] <fallingdutch> bhrobinson, it's a security risk - like working as admin on windows all the time ... if any program you use has a bug or backdor etc the attacker would have full access to your system
[02:11] <bhrobinson> oskude, not on this system...
[02:11] <fallingdutch> oskude, yes a /dev/mapper device
[02:11] <earthian> why my ubuntu gnome based partition manager does not see my NTFS drive partitions ??? i want to remove ONE partition not all of them and install ubintu there
[02:11] <earthian> could anybody help me regarding this issue?/
[02:12] <earthian> where should i start checking system settings?
[02:12] <oskude> fallingdutch: sorry, dunno what that is, raid or lvm ?
[02:12] <earthian> or something?
[02:12] <fallingdutch> oskude, it will be an encrypted root fs
[02:12] <bhrobinson> fallingdutch, then can you point me to a decent instructions set to get a NIS up and running? I currently run 5 FC5 and now 3 ubuntu installs
[02:12] <oskude> fallingdutch: ah. never done that...
[02:13] <earthian> <<
[02:13] <domster> is there a way, other than with a ~/.xprofile, to run an application every time X/gdm starts (and am I right in assuming a ~/.xprofile will only run once a
[02:13] <domster> user logs in)
[02:13] <oskude> bhrobinson: btw. what are you trying to compile ?
[02:13] <Zambezi> Is proftpd a good option for a FTP (and addon for SSL)? I got to be quick, easy and encrypted.
[02:13] <bhrobinson> oskude, midnight commander
[02:13] <oskude> bhrobinson: hmm, isnt that in the repos ?
[02:13] <fallingdutch> bhrobinson, if you need root just call the app with a sudo in front of it then type in your password and it will run as root, but you dont need to login as root
[02:14] <oskude> bhrobinson: mc - midnight commander - a powerful file manager
[02:14] <bhrobinson> oskude, I keep getting told that it cannot find it
[02:14] <richard> does anyone know of a package that has similar abilities as excel web queries??
[02:14] <oskude> !info mc

[02:14] <hs_125> please help me with this error http://pastebin.com/777844
[02:15] <oskude> bhrobinson: got universe repo activared ?
[02:15] <Justin_> Where does Ubuntu store all the extra package data it keeps cached?
[02:15] <bhrobinson> oskude, that was what I was asking earlier... from the gui that is easy... where is it in the shell?
[02:16] <Justin_> I believe synaptic caches data right?, since when I re-install programs I had earlier, even after reboot - it does not need to refetch them from the servers
[02:16] <oskude> bhrobinson: ah. sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list
[02:16] <oskude> Justin_: see: ls /var/cache/apt/archives
[02:17] <oskude> Justin_: sudo apt-get clean (cleans that)
[02:17] <bhrobinson> fallingdutch, I typically just su to do all the changes.. that way I am not constatnly entering the password
[02:17] <fallingdutch> bhrobinson, then do a sudo -s -H so you dont need a root password to be set
[02:18] <Justin_> Wow I have a lot of stuff in there - "cleaning" it will not affect my installed programs I hope?
[02:18] <fallingdutch> Justin_, no, shouldnt :-)
[02:18] <oskude> hs_125: java has firefox ? trying to overwrite `/usr/lib/mozilla-firefox', which is also in package j2re1.4
[02:19] <bhrobinson> oskude, still cannot find mc
[02:19] <Justin_> ;D nice
[02:19] <oskude> bhrobinson: did you do: sudo apt-get update ?
[02:19] <sivanicon> Anyone know of a good bandwidth testing software?
[02:19] <bhrobinson> fallingdutch, so where does the default root password get defined?
[02:19] <bhrobinson> oskude, no... trying now
[02:19] <fallingdutch> bhrobinson, afaik never, because you are listed as sudoer, so root password doesnt need to be set at all
[02:19] <oskude> sivanicon: dunno what you mean, but "iptraf" could help
[02:20] <bhrobinson> oskude, still cannot find mc
[02:20] <sivanicon> oskude: i want to test a t1 line from one office to the other, just want to see if were getting what we paid for.
[02:20] <oskude> bhrobinson: hmm, then somethings wrong...
[02:20] <bhrobinson> fallingdutch, does there not have to be a default root that is just not known? I thought the subsystem required that
[02:21] <fallingdutch> bhrobinson, in shadow there is no root password set
[02:21] <oskude> sivanicon: iptraf shows the traffic atm, then just upload a file from a to b
[02:21] <bhrobinson> oskude, that was the same issue I had on the desktop edition. I installed and compiled the mc and then did the deb package update
[02:21] <bhrobinson> good morning
[02:21] <sivanicon> oskude: thanks
[02:21] <bhrobinson> wrong window sorry
[02:22] <oskude> bhrobinson: when you do "sudo apt-get update" do you see "Hit http://archive.ubuntu.com dapper/universe Packages" in the output ?
[02:22] <bhrobinson> oskude, yes
[02:23] <fallingdutch> bhrobinson, why should the subsystem require a root password to be set?
[02:23] <oskude> bhrobinson: and "sudo apt-get install mc" doesnt work ?
[02:23] <bhrobinson> oskude, nope....
[02:23] <bhrobinson> fallingdutch, I just thought it was a required setting
[02:24] <oskude> bhrobinson: well, i can do "sudo apt-get install mc" here...
[02:24] <lastnode> i want to dd my whole disk. what does the bs= option do? if i do bs=512, it will write 512 bytes at a time, correct?
[02:24] <zxc> Is there anyway of finding apps quickly that you've installed?...like I've installed Beagle and I can't find it...
[02:25] <oskude> lastnode: i think so...
[02:25] <lastnode> oskude, or is it obs= (which the manpage says is bytes at a time), the man page is rather ambigious
[02:26] <Rambo3> how long should one wait for this new installers partition tool to start
[02:26] <fallingdutch> how can i change the device i want to install ubuntu on? i want to install it on an encrypted device so i would have to set / to something similar like /dev/mapper/secret
[02:26] <oskude> lastnode: "bs=BYTES  force ibs=BYTES and obs=BYTES" seems bs does the both
[02:26] <Kaja> Rambo3, by using the Alternate install CD you can avoid waiting...
[02:26] <ShoeUnited> Hi there back again, I think I found a fix.  lol
[02:27] <oskude> lastnode: i read that so that bs sets ibs AND obs
[02:27] <Rambo3> thanks for irelativity
[02:28] <oskude> fallingdutch: and how do you decrypt it before install ? im just quessing you set that encrypting after install...
[02:28] <ShoeUnited> For those who are unaware, I kept getting "Missing operating system" when the larger 160gb drive had ntfs (no os primary slave) and my 60 gb (Primary master Ubunutu) they were on CS, I set them to their respective drive orders on the jumpers, but experienced the same problem.
[02:28] <babis85> hello, how could i stop system firewall starting at boot time?
[02:28] <ShoeUnited> The BIOS refused to boot the Primary, since it didn't seem to be a windows file system.
[02:28] <ShoeUnited> I'm thinking XP had something to do with this.
[02:28] <ShoeUnited> The machine is an HP 533w.
[02:28] <Rambo3> rm /etc/rc5/XXFirestarter
[02:28] <ShoeUnited> But I figured out the fix:
[02:28] <oskude> Rambo3: you know that depends on your hardware ?
[02:29] <oskude> Rambo3: but shouldnt be "long" ;)
[02:29] <AustLaw> which vnc is designed for graphical interface?
[02:29] <ShoeUnited> disable the drive in BIOS.  *nix finds the drive anyway.  grub now loads, nix now loads. and it detects the drive.  All is good ^_^
[02:29] <hs_125> please help me with this error http://pastebin.com/777844
[02:29] <babis85> Rambo3: and if i haven't got Firestarter?
[02:30] <Teh_wrk1n|Dog> Hi! all Im a nervous wreck and i have 5 weeks to prepare for an lpi exam 102 & 101. do you think its possible for a newbie to be fully prepared by then?
[02:31] <AustLaw> looks like it is already installed, does the vnc server run by default or must I enable it?
[02:31] <Rambo3> babis85 if you dont have it then install it and remove it.. or if you are thinking of iptables then i would guess it has got to do with building your own kernel
[02:31] <Cine> is there some weird bug with Dapper that I need to fix to get Open Office running?
[02:32] <Rambo3> Cine search ubuntu launchpad  for open office
[02:32] <Rambo3> !bug
[02:32] <ubotu> If you find a bug in Ubuntu, please report it at http://bugs.ubuntu.com
[02:32] <babis85> Rambo3: so, if Firestarter is installed then the firewall is loaded only by that script?
[02:32] <Rambo3> its configuration tool
[02:32] <Cine> <---- dummy... launch pad?
[02:33] <RePete> b'bye...
[02:33] <fallingdutch> oskude i decrypt it with "cryptsetup luksOpen" and map it to /dev/mapper/verysecret and then install it into it
[02:33] <AustLaw> does the vnc server start running by default on ubuntu desktop?--which ports does it use?
[02:34] <Rambo3> Cine https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+bugs?
[02:34] <Cine> thanks rambo... just found it... :)
[02:34] <Jimmey> !nvidia
[02:34] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[02:34] <fallingdutch> AustLaw, no, it doesn't system->settings->remote desktop
[02:35] <trygg> Whats the difference between vmware and win4lin?
[02:35] <babis85> Rambo3: i know that, i am asking if it is the only one that loads firewall, because if only remove it's script then the firewall will be loaded again
[02:35] <oskude> trygg: the name ? :P
[02:35] <babis85> by another script maybe...
[02:35] <Rambo3> !iptables
[02:35] <ubotu> Ubuntu, like any other linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed with iptables (in the command line) or firestarter (gui, can also setup connection sharing)
[02:36] <trygg> oskude: heh, nothing more? ;p
[02:36] <AustLaw> what ports does vnc use?
[02:36] <oskude> trygg: no idea. those aint "ubuntu related"...
[02:36] <sana> well i have serious problems :-s
[02:37] <sana> i just installed unbuntu server for i386 and i can do almost nothing using the console
[02:37] <fallingdutch> AustLaw, google tells me 5500
[02:37] <oskude> sana: you _can_ do "everything" from the console :)
[02:38] <morten> ive switched graphics card from ati 9800 pro to geforce 2 - replaced "ati" in xorg.conf with "vesa" , but now max resolution of screen is 1024 , anyone know a solution?
[02:38] <corndog_> trygg, one difference (im assuming) is win4lin allows you to run windows inside of linux and vmware is a complete virtual machine... allowing you to run any operating system
[02:38] <sana> i tryied sudo apt -get install x-windows-system-core kde-core kdm to install a graphical enviroment
[02:38] <fallingdutch> lol oskude
[02:38] <sana> but it tells me that the patch does not exist
[02:38] <fallingdutch> sana, thats not what you should install on a server
[02:38] <Rambo3> morten vesa is the problem
[02:38] <oskude> sana: thats apt-get, not apt -get

[02:40] <sana> on fiberlink
[02:41] <corndog_> sana, isnt that a wi-fi service? anyways your best bet is messing with ifconfig
[02:41] <oskude> sana: could be that you need "pppoeconf - configures PPPoE/ADSL connections", but i allways had a router that did that for me, so dunno how that goes...
[02:41] <fallingdutch> sana, guess you use pppoe, try to ask your fav. search machine for it

[02:48] <BigToe> cause atm I'm just dragging random folders onto a CD-R
[02:48] <BigToe> D:
[02:48] <ShoeUnited> Earthian how much free space is on your drive?
[02:48] <earthian> Kingfield just ask
[02:48] <shawnr_> !ask
[02:48] <ubotu> Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[02:48] <Kingfield> okay
[02:48] <Kingfield> thanks
[02:48] <earthian> i have like 20gb free space on drive C
[02:48] <Kingfield> i got this prob with libqt3c102-mt
[02:48] <earthian> and ~1gb on drive D
[02:48] <Kingfield> you know when the faulty upgrade came out?
[02:48] <earthian> 20gb out of 20gb
[02:48] <earthian> ^
[02:49] <Kingfield> and when u tried to log in there was a problem with X graphical interface or something?
[02:49] <Rambo3> !infor libqt3.1
[02:49] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about infor libqt3.1 - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[02:49] <ShoeUnited> Earthian: Which os are you running?
[02:49] <Rambo3> !info libqt3.1
[02:49] <ubotu> Package libqt3.1 does not exist in any distro I know
[02:49] <shawnr_> Kingfield, what about it
[02:49] <earthian> so my situation is that i want to use one partition of my drive for linux and leave another one for files
[02:49] <Kingfield> i reinstalled linux
[02:49] <shawnr_> Kingfield, that was fixed the day of
[02:49] <Franquito> bonjour a tous
[02:49] <Kingfield> cuz i thought i screwed up
[02:49] <Kingfield> i reinstalled ubuntu
[02:49] <earthian> i use windows server 2003 enterprise x64 R2
[02:49] <shawnr_> Kingfield, LOL why the hell would you do that
[02:49] <Kingfield> i thought it screwed
[02:49] <BigToe> talking of upgrades, anyone know when flash 9's coming out :P
[02:49] <Kingfield> ><
[02:49] <earthian> trial ^
[02:49] <Kingfield> anyways
[02:50] <earthian> :/
[02:50] <Kingfield> now whenever i try to compile something this error about libqt3c102-mt comes out
[02:50] <Rambo3> Kingfield: yeah i had that upgrade problem , it was something like wrong package name there
[02:50] <ShoeUnited> Earthian: If you have 20 gb of free space, format that 20gb and install ubuntu there.
[02:50] <ShoeUnited> ^_^
[02:50] <shawnr_> BigToe, there is a cheat to make websites think your running flash 9 or 8.
[02:50] <earthian> ShoeUnited problem is that ubuntu does not see it
[02:50] <Kingfield> actually its just libqt3 i cant compile stuff anymore
[02:50] <earthian> it does not see any of my partitions
[02:50] <earthian> :(
[02:50] <Kingfield> or anything
[02:50] <shawnr_> BigToe, most flash 8 sites work fine with it too
[02:51] <BigToe> shawnr_, but I don't want that, I want flash 9 :P
[02:51] <Kingfield> can anyone hellp?
[02:51] <ShoeUnited> Earthian: Which FS is 2003 under?
[02:51] <earthian> NTFS
[02:51] <shawnr_> BigToe, then wait like the rest of us
[02:51] <earthian> i think its NTFS 3.1
[02:51] <BigToe> because some flash games don't work :(
[02:51] <BigToe> heh
[02:51] <earthian> like xp
[02:51] <shawnr_> BigToe, then wait like the rest of us
[02:51] <Kingfield> can anyone hellp?
[02:51] <BigToe> I don't like waiting :S
[02:51] <Kingfield> libqt3 i cant compile stuff anymore
[02:51] <corndog_> BigToe, but if u want the link to trick firefox go here http://xubuntu.wordpress.com/2006/08/14/flash-9-for-xubuntu/
[02:51] <shawnr_> Kingfield, install build-essentials
[02:51] <ShoeUnited> Earthian: If they are compressed, it won't detect them.  and you have to take that 20 gb in MS and fdisk it as either blank or fat 32
[02:51] <earthian> erm that windows is under drive C (there are 2 partitions drive C and drive D)
[02:51] <BigToe> corndog_, thanks
[02:52] <earthian> aha
[02:52] <earthian> compressed
[02:52] <earthian> ^
[02:52] <shawnr_> Kingfield, sudo apt-get install build-essentials
[02:52] <whitehorseNtiger> How many on here using 64bit?
[02:52] <shawnr_> whitehorseNtiger, i did but came back to 32
[02:52] <corndog_> im sticking it out
[02:52] <earthian> no its not compressed :(
[02:52] <shawnr_> whitehorseNtiger, if you don't mind taking the extra time to work out a few kinks, i say def go for the 64-bit
[02:53] <Cillian> I just installed ubuntu using the custom debootstrap method, and when I login through gdm, it sits there with a blank brown screen for about 4 minutes before gnome starts loading
[02:53] <Cillian> Anybody know whats up?
[02:53] <shawnr_> whitehorseNtiger, i didn't have the time to mess with it... this is also my work computer
[02:53] <whitehorseNtiger> I haven't had any kinks.
[02:53] <corndog_> whitehorseNtiger, lots of issues around video, java, and flash mostly
[02:53] <oskude> earthian: you know that you wont be able to write (with out problems) to ntfs partition from linux ?
[02:53] <mb89> hey can anyone help me out, I seem to have deleted the menu.lst file from /boot/grub/ and now i have a grub command TOTALLY LOST!
[02:53] <Kingfield> but it says couldnt find package build essentials
[02:53] <Kingfield> but it says couldnt find package build essentials
[02:53] <Jack_Sparrow> Cillian: what hardware are you running?
[02:53] <corndog_> whitehorseNtiger, especially win32 codecs gave me an issue
[02:53] <shawnr_> Kingfield, 'build-essentials' not build essentials'
[02:53] <Kingfield> yeah
[02:53] <oskude> Kingfield: its build-essential
[02:53] <Kingfield> says it couldnt find it
[02:53] <whitehorseNtiger> I don't care about Java.  Flash I installed without much trouble
[02:54] <Kingfield> oh
[02:54] <shawnr_> Kingfield, did you enable repositories?
[02:54] <Cillian> Jack_Sparrow: Intel pentium M, 900MHz, 512 megs ram, though I had an identical problem when I installed with the same method on my faster workstation
[02:54] <Kingfield> uhhh
[02:54] <Kingfield> i dunno
[02:54] <Kingfield> how do u do that
[02:54] <whitehorseNtiger> I am having more trouble with Korean imput.
[02:54] <Cillian> When I ps -A when it's loading, I see xrdb at the bottom is <defunct>
[02:54] <shawnr_> Kingfield, how did you do it before you formated ;p
[02:54] <corndog_> whitehorseNtiger, cant help you there :( im not korean

[02:54] <Kingfield> i just installed it
[02:54] <Kingfield> thats all
[02:54] <Kingfield> by the way
[02:54] <Jack_Sparrow> Cillian: The normal install didnt work for you?
[02:54] <oskude> !enter
[02:54] <ubotu> Please don't use the "enter" key as punctuation! It spams the channel and can be annoying.
[02:54] <Cillian> Jack_Sparrow: I don't have any 700 meg CDs to burn the full install CDs onto :/
[02:55] <Kingfield> i tried installing the qt3 thingy and it said i couldnt cuz i had a newer version already
[02:55] <whitehorseNtiger> I installed 64bit.  Needed to reinstall my whole web infrastructure I had on 32bit.
[02:55] <Jack_Sparrow> Cillian: have you tried regular cd's
[02:55] <shawnr_> Kingfield, http://easylinux.info/wiki/Ubuntu_dapper
[02:55] <Cillian> Jack_Sparrow: Hmm?
[02:55] <Cillian> 650 meg ones?
[02:55] <shawnr_> Im looking for a program that will oragnize my photo's by using the date taken from the exif data, not just organize in the program.. i mean physically move files into proper folders on the disk by month or month/date. anyone know of any good ones out there that i can trust with my 3 gigs of photos ?
[02:55] <Jack_Sparrow> Cillian: I know the image is larger than that.. but part of that is because it is an image
[02:56] <RvGaTe> Shit, i think i made a typo at the installation... i cant login :P
[02:56] <Cillian> Jack_Sparrow: Err, so I could try burning a 700 meg image onto a 650 disc and hopefully the bit it misses off the end isn't important...?
[02:56] <Jack_Sparrow> Cillian: It may not miss anything
[02:56] <Kingfield> i cant get it please help
[02:56] <Cillian> Jack_Sparrow: Err... ok, I'll try it.
[02:56] <mb89> hey can anyone help me out, I seem to have deleted the menu.lst file from /boot/grub/ and now i have a grub command TOTALLY LOST!
[02:56] <shawnr_> Kingfield, what are you typing in the terminal, exactly
[02:56] <Cillian> mb89: You said

[02:59] <Kingfield> what am i meant to do now
[02:59] <Cillian> whitehorseNtiger: Err, you can mount a folder to a ramdrive, I think, and it uses up ram as you store more files on it
[02:59] <oskude> Kingfield: build-essential is in main. it should work
[02:59] <whitehorseNtiger> NOT like my 64bit computer is SLOW...just wondering if there is any RAM DRIVE available for ubuntu/debian.
[02:59] <shawnr_> Kingfield,  sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install build-essential
[02:59] <Jack_Sparrow> Cillian: IF that does not work .. get a 700meg cd.  Around here they are at every grocery store and 7-11

[03:12] <Kingfield> libqt3c102-mt - when i try to install it, it says that i have an earlier version installed
[03:12] <silverman> IndyBC: use amsn
[03:12] <Kingfield> i mean newer version installed
[03:12] <Kingfield> so i cant install it
[03:12] <IndyBC> poningru: But with which program will I use webcam ?
[03:12] <shawnr_> Kingfield, what is f41 ?
[03:12] <Cillian> Kingfield: Weird, are you telling me on ubuntu you can't have Qt 3 and 4 at the same time!?
[03:12] <Kingfield> no
[03:12] <Kingfield> i dont know
[03:13] <poningru> IndyBC: you can use ekiga iirc
[03:13] <Kingfield> i DO have qt3
[03:13] <Kingfield> the folder is NAMED qt3
[03:13] <poningru> IndyBC: you can use vlc to just record
[03:13] <camer0ff> when you mount a networked computer, how do you change the ownership of the files from root?
[03:13] <IndyBC> poningru: ok
[03:13] <Kingfield> shawnr f4l is flash for linux
[03:13] <valen> anyone know of any current issues regarding DNS? I can't seem to resolve addresses correctly
[03:13] <Cillian> camer0ff: -o uid=user
[03:14] <oskude> Kingfield: fyi: their release at sf.net is 1year old!
[03:14] <camer0ff> how do you mount the network then Cillian ?
[03:14] <Kingfield> i know
[03:14] <Kingfield> but it worked before
[03:14] <camer0ff> i have just been using the gui
[03:14] <Kingfield> at least i could compile it
[03:14] <oskude> !enter
[03:14] <ubotu> Please don't use the "enter" key as punctuation! It spams the channel and can be annoying.
[03:14] <Kingfield> now i cant compile anything
[03:14] <Cillian> camer0ff: Err, what type of network FS?  samba, ftp, nfs?
[03:14] <camer0ff> Cillian, samba
[03:15] <Cillian> camer0ff: mount -t smbfs //server/share -o user=serverusername,uid=localusertoownfiles
[03:15] <Kingfield> can anyone help me please
[03:15] <Cillian>  /mnt/mountpoint
[03:15] <camer0ff> cool

[03:16] <IndyBC> poningru: So, neither Gaim nor Skype support webcam? :-(
[03:16] <Kingfield> Im using Ubuntu 6.06 Dapper drake, right, and then you know when that faulty upgrade came out, and gave a problem with X graphical interface or something? anyways, i thought i screwed up so i reinstalled Ubuntu. Now i have this problem with libqt3c102-mt every single time i try to compile something. When i tried to install it, it said i had a newer version of that so i couldnt install it. Anyone help please?
[03:16] <Cillian> Kingfield: Try uninstalling qt 4
[03:17] <Kingfield> but i dont think i HAVE qt 4 installed
[03:17] <poningru> IndyBC: skype does iirc but gaim not yet
[03:17] <zeronenorez> hey ,please help me
[03:17] <poningru> IndyBC: well actually there is gaimvv
[03:17] <mcscruff> how can i see what mobo i have in my pc
[03:17] <fyrestrtr> Kingfield: from a terminal, sudo apt-get update, then sudo apt-get dist-upgrade -- that should fix it.
[03:17] <kyja> when I go to quit from menu... I log out. how can I get that logout switchuser shutdown restart bla bla back :-(
[03:17] <poningru> but its not so stable and it can crash etc.
[03:17] <valen> I keep getting an error message whenever I try and resolve an address, making web browsing or any internet based stuff a pain in the ass
[03:18] <valen> anyone know of a fix?
[03:18] <Cillian> valen: Err, what's in your /etc/resolv.conf ?
[03:18] <camer0ff> Cillian, it is coming up with an error about "wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock"

[03:18] <Cillian> camer0ff: Urgh, sure you got the server and sharename right?
[03:18] <IndyBC> poningru: I have Gaim and Skype. What can I do, in order to talk via a web camera?
[03:18] <deep> how can i get a list of harddrives and the use of its space?
[03:18] <Cillian> camer0ff: And no firewall etc. in the way
[03:18] <valen> my router is in resolv.conf, it's dhcp. <IP_ADDRESS>

[03:19] <valen> the router is just pure nat

[03:20] <valen> I can ping anything
[03:20] <Cillian> valen: But just your browser is messed up?
[03:20] <camer0ff> Cillian, can connect to it from this machine.. might have the command incorrect :S
[03:20] <oskude> zeronenorez: i dont use it, but i have it installed ;)
[03:20] <valen> and apt, and ping, and netcat, and any other tcp/udp based app
[03:20] <Cillian> camer0ff: Yeh... in the command, make sure user=... is the username to connect as, and uid= is the local user to own the files
[03:20] <camer0ff> can i message you with the command or keep it public?

[03:21] <fyrestrtr> Kingfield: what happens with sudo apt-get install -f ?
[03:22] <Cillian> valen: Weird, might be because after the ping the host is cached or something somewhere

[03:25] <valen> can anyone google for me <IP_ADDRESS>? I can't google whatsoever at the moment, it's being a pita.
[03:25] <poningru> IndyBC: yes... but I think you should use kopete
[03:26] <poningru> then you can use msn video
[03:26] <kyle_> hi, is there a way stop the "disable Sticky Keys" and "enable slow keys" dialogs from popping up while having Sticky Keys enabled (in accessibility)?
[03:26] <poningru> or amsn
[03:26] <IndyBC> poningru: oh, ok
[03:26] <IndyBC> poningru: so, you recommend me kopete? (I have Gnome)
[03:27] <kyle_> anyone? they pop up a couple of times per day
[03:27] <Led_Zeppelin> how do I extract an UHA file?
[03:27] <don_jr> Anyone have any other forum like setups I may be able to use in ubuntu/apache2 other than phpbb2?
[03:27] <poningru> IndyBC: try amsn first if you only plan on using msn video
[03:28] <oskude> Led_Zeppelin: whats an UHA file ?
[03:28] <IndyBC> poningru: ok :-)
[03:28] <Led_Zeppelin> oskude: type of format
[03:28] <Led_Zeppelin> compressed format
[03:28] <oskude> Led_Zeppelin: never heard, gotta wikipedia that...
[03:28] <Led_Zeppelin> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UHarc
[03:28] <oskude> Led_Zeppelin: ok, "It was used a lot in the earlier warez scene, now having been largely replaced by WinRAR."  When i try to run the downloaded file it complains that i don't have the path to gcc
[03:30] <oskude> Led_Zeppelin: apt-cache search uha ( doesnt find anything)
[03:30] <Cillian> 20% of the install CD....
[03:30] <oskude> Bastiq: sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx
[03:30] <Bastiq> oskude, that's not the latest
[03:30] <oskude> Bastiq: ok ...
[03:30] <lassegs> hi. with beagle installed and good to go, i cant add the beagle panel applet. i just doesnt show up in "add to panel". Anyone knows what this is all about?
[03:32] <wweasel> Hey guys. I am using Kopete and when I receive a message my taskbar starts flashing even if I am already in the chat window. I really need to know how to fix this.
[03:33] <lassegs> it is supposed to show up in the "add to panel" menu right?
[03:34] <oskude> lassegs: apt-cache show beagle doesnt mention anything about panel, what did you install ?
[03:34] <lassegs> just the beagle package
[03:34] <lassegs> oskude, sudo apt-get install beagle
[03:35] <oskude> lassegs: if its supposed to be addable in the panel, i think it would say so...
[03:35] <wweasel> lassegs: Maybe he needs to add universe and multiverse to his repositories?
[03:35] <lassegs> oskude, i looked at some screenshots and I saw a cute doggie icon in the corner. thought it would be handy
[03:36] <oskude> lassegs: you can add "icons" with "application launcher"
[03:36] <lassegs> oskude, then i googled "install configure beagle" and found lots of stuff on how to install beagle, but noone mentions the applet, even though illustrations to the text shows an applet
[03:37] <oskude> lassegs: show me a screenshot with beagle applet
[03:37] <lassegs> oskude, http://cc.cpe.ku.ac.th/~b4405610/image/beagle.png
[03:38] <oskude> lassegs: thats no applet, thats just "application launcher"...
[03:38] <internat> ok im having issues with sound. now i think part of it is because i have a dvb card that has audio out on it as well, but ive set the cmedia card to be the default in sound preferences, and it worked when i installed ubuntu, but i dont think ive changed anything and now its not working.. any suggestions/checklists of stuff to look at?
[03:38] <lassegs> oskude, ive been fooled
[03:38] <lassegs> oskude, thx though
[03:39] <kyle_> internat, have you tried to kill esd?
[03:39] <oskude> lassegs: you have "application launcher" in "add to panel" (top of the icons)
[03:39] <internat> kyle_, ive restarted a couple of tim4e
[03:39] <lassegs> oskude, i know.. thx anyways
[03:39] <oskude> lassegs: roger
[03:39] <lonran> hallo
[03:40] <kyle_> i mean killing the esd sound demon? this helped for me a number of times
[03:40] <lonran> anybody know which tags reads amarok by default?
[03:40] <internat> yeah but ive restarted so the daeomon would have been killed
[03:40] <oskude> lassegs: but you could look this http://raphael.slinckx.net/deskbar/
[03:40] <internat> ive treid restarting alsa
[03:40] <Talisker[w] > http://xkcd.com/c149.html
[03:41] <kyle_> can you see it running in the process list?
[03:41] <oskude> lassegs: seems like deskbar can use beagle as backend...
[03:41] <lassegs> oskude, yeah i saw that.. trying to make it work now
[03:42] <oskude> lassegs: i assume you can set in the deskbar setting what backend to use...
[03:43] <lassegs> oskude, which setting? gconf-editor?
[03:43] <oskude> lassegs: right click on deskbar (on the magnifier icon) -> settings
[03:44] <lassegs> oskude, you cant configure back ends there, can you?
[03:44] <oskude> lassegs: no idea, just quessing...
[03:44] <lassegs> oskude, no it doesnt work
[03:45] <oskude> lassegs: well, they say "Simple static backends like 'Search xx with yy' where yy can be beagle, gnome-dict, gnome-search-tool,.."
[03:46] <oskude> lassegs: so maybe you have to type "search blah with beagle" ?
[03:46] <lassegs> oskude, you really arent as dumb as you look
[03:46] <lassegs> oskude, thanks
[03:46] <holotone> is there a quick and dirty way to get basic system specs (RAM, CPU speed, etc...) from the shell?
[03:46] <oskude> lassegs: and they allso write "With libbeagle, show a small selection of beagle result for typed word"
[03:47] <Chopp> Anyone can help me getting my X to work? :(
[03:48] <oskude> holotone: maybe "sudo lshw"
[03:48] <holotone> oskude: Whoa, perfect
[03:48] <holotone> Thanks!
[03:49] <oskude> lassegs: im trying python-beagle ;)
[03:49] <lassegs> oskude, whats that?
[03:49] <oskude> lassegs: python binding to beagle, ill try if that quick search works then...
[03:49] <internat> is there a good dvb player for ubuntu other then mythtv and kaffeine?
[03:50] <azathoth> what's the app that picks up window messages?
[03:50] <oskude> internat: zapping,tvtime... if those support dvb
[03:51] <oskude> lassegs: yup, now i have to beagle "extensions" in deskbar
[03:51] <oskude> * too
[03:51] <oskude> eh, *two (2) :/
[03:52] <oskude> oh no, not another daemon, sudo apt-get remove ;)
[03:52] <fallingdutch> how do i change the initrd? want to add a binary to the rd and run a skript
[03:53] <StephenL> I just updated my xorg i810 driver and now I have no title bars on any of my windows.
[03:53] <nox-Hand> StephenL, in terminal, try typing gnome-window-decorator --replace &
[03:53] <nox-Hand> MIght not work, but worth a shot
[03:54] <nox-Hand> IF you are in GNOME*
[03:54] <StephenL> OK.  Trying...
[03:55] <StephenL> Nope.  Didn't work.
[03:55] <nox-Hand> StephenL, XGL or regular X?
[03:55] <StephenL> aigl
[03:55] <nox-Hand> Ah
[03:55] <nox-Hand> With compiz?
[03:55] <StephenL> yes
[03:56] <nox-Hand> try startcompiz or compiz-start in a terminal IN your X session
[03:56] <kyja> when I go to quit from menu... I log out. how can I get that logout switchuser shutdown restart bla bla back :-(
[03:56] <StephenL> ok
[03:56] <nox-Hand> i.e. gnome-terminal or something
[03:56] <nils_> Hi all, following this howto to rebuild the debian installer : http://dsplabs.utt.ro/~juve/blog/index.cgi/01147559232
[03:56] <nox-Hand> kyja, Do you use GDM?
[03:56] <kyja> nox-Hand, gnome
[03:56] <nils_> I'm stuck at 6.2 and i've not idea what he's trying to tell me...
[03:56] <nox-Hand> kyja, Yes, but do you log in through GNOME DISPLAY MANAGER (( GDM )) ?
[03:57] <nox-Hand> It's that or startx or gnome-session or something, kyja
[03:57] <StephenL> Nope that didn't work either.  I'm never doing another update that has to do with X.
[03:57] <kyja> nox-Hand, I had installed a user switcher applet yesturday and did not like it and I think that disabled ithe ither.
[03:57] <StephenL> Everytime I do one something breaks.
[03:57] <kyja> nox-Hand, yeah I have it doing a theme loginin user picker
[03:57] <nox-Hand> kyja, You know of what I speak when I say GDM, yeah? The Ubuntu login thing, where drums play some stuff
[03:58] <kyja> nox-Hand, yes it does play drums and waits for user and pass
[03:59] <sls_583> Could someone tell me if the Dapper install CD can None destructivly resize NTFS partitions?
[03:59] <StephenL> sls_583:  Yes, it can.
[04:00] <fallingdutch> kyja, are you logged in? if so start a terminal and run "ps ax | grep gdm" if it says something like "/usr/sbin/gdm" you are running gdm
[04:00] <nox-Hand> kyja, That's odd then :/
[04:00] <sls_583> Thanks
[04:00] <nox-Hand> fallingdutch, She is running GDM, she says she gets the drums
[04:00] <nox-Hand> StephenL, You have ANY start compiz script at all?
[04:00] <nox-Hand> You should have
[04:01] <StephenL> Is there a log to see what updates I installed.
[04:01] <StephenL> nox-Hand:  Yes I do.
[04:01] <nostGONE> i'm running ubuntu server (6.06 iirc) with 2 raid5 arrays. every now and then, one of the disks in my sata raid5 array throws dmesg errors about status=0x50 DriveReady, SeekComplete and something about No Sense -- does that ring a bell for anyone ?
[04:01] <nox-Hand> StephenL, Hmn, and they dont work?
[04:01] <Xriubuntu> I've just installed ubuntu, and have spend about 10 minutes looking for my trash can...where is it??
[04:01] <kyja> nox-Hand, yes
[04:01] <nox-Hand> Upgraded kernel, StephenL? Or drivers?
[04:01] <the_Cat> I dont get it.. what's the difference between Ubuntu Dapper and "normal" (?) Ubuntu? :E
[04:01] <StephenL> Everything is working fine.  I just don't have the window borders or the title bar.
[04:01] <fallingdutch> Xriubuntu, right down
[04:02] <nox-Hand> the_Cat, Dapper is the version
[04:02] <nox-Hand> It's the current
[04:02] <nostGONE> the_Cat, "dapper" is the name of a specific version
[04:02] <nox-Hand> Before it was Hoary
[04:02] <the_Cat> Oh.
[04:02] <the_Cat> :$
[04:02] <Xriubuntu> fallingdutch: Found it; im a moron
[04:02] <nox-Hand> Now normal is Dapper :)
[04:02] <the_Cat> Thank you. ;>
[04:02] <fallingdutch> Xriubuntu, have fun with your trash can ;-)
[04:02] <ThJ> how do you reconstruct what was in /dev/.static/ at install time, if there was anything there?
[04:02] <StephenL> nox-Hand:  I had 3 updates, one was the xorg-i810 driver and I can't remember what the other 2 were.  Not kernel updates though.
[04:03] <StephenL> Is there a log of what updates are done?
[04:03] <nox-Hand> StephenL, It's gotta be the driver
[04:03] <Xriubuntu> ok, everything is going really slow, this speeds up when I install, rather than running on disk right? It look me like a minutes to just boot up :/
[04:03] <nox-Hand> I think anywho
[04:03] <StephenL> nox-Hand:  That's what I'm thinking.  Is there an easy way to roll back the driver?
[04:03] <nox-Hand> Most X errors with updates are drivers
[04:03] <ThJ> that question was for everyone btw :B
[04:03] <nox-Hand> StephenL, Probably. Which did you use?
[04:04] <StephenL> I just updated using the update manager.  I'm not sure which it installed.
[04:04] <Anon5935> when I go to 'switch users' the monitor just turns off.
[04:04] <Anon5935> I assume this is not suppose to happen?
[04:04] <nox-Hand> ThJ, Recovering files in UNIX-based systems is a right pain - hex editors etc. Unless this is life-or-death, you should go cry or make a new file afaik
[04:04] <nox-Hand> I have no other ideas - I may be wrong
[04:05] <azathoth> anyone know how i can monitor system messages? so i can pick up window messages or mouse input?
[04:05] <azathoth> there's an app i was using, but i forget the name
[04:05] <fallingdutch> Xriubuntu, yes, liveCD is very slow here, too but when installed pretty fast :-)
[04:05] <nox-Hand> StephenL, less /var/log/dpkg.log
[04:05] <ThJ> nox-Hand: i know it contained devices and things work fine if i just make a copy of /dev and put it in /dev/.static/dev, it's apparently the version of /dev used before udev is loaded.
[04:05] <nox-Hand> Will say at bottom what you installed
[04:06] <ThJ> nox-Hand: i want to know the commands the ubuntu installer used to make it, cause it obviously isnt MAKEDEV generic.
[04:06] <nox-Hand> ThJ, Tricky :/ I cant help there. Would a version of /dev/.static/dev from someone like me work?
[04:06] <ThJ> nox-Hand: i think it would
[04:06] <nox-Hand> ThJ, Woooow, that's complicated, that :P
[04:06] <fulat2k> hi folks, how do you config kde look and feel? i've got qt3 config, but i read that there's another tool more specific to kde.
[04:07] <ThJ> nox-Hand: i sense sarcasm
[04:07] <chuckyp> Does anyone know if there is a way to fix the gnome menus after installing kubuntu.  I'd like to have both but want my menus to stay the same.
[04:07] <nox-Hand> ThJ, It is.
[04:07] <Anon5935> any idea what would cause the monitor to turn off when I 'switch users'?
[04:07] <nox-Hand> Too big for me
[04:07] <nox-Hand> ThJ, I would go ask in #ubuntu-devel - I know you aint supposed to ask there, but ask for someone who was an installer developer
[04:07] <faeldray> i just installed ubuntu on a really old computer. when i boot up, everything is fine until i get to the login screen. then the screen gets really screwed up. i think the monitor is the problem. anyone have any ideas?
[04:07] <nox-Hand> Anon5935, Wrong res?
[04:08] <ThJ> nox-Hand: could you check your /dev/.static/ directory for me?
[04:08] <fallingdutch> nox-Hand, do you know how to change the initial ramdisk?
[04:08] <fallingdutch> with the ubuntu/debian tools?
[04:08] <Anon5935> well it does not say 'signal out of bounds' which is what it normally says if I set a bad res
[04:08] <ThJ> nox-Hand: it's static so i presumably only need a copy of the default device files.

[04:12] <ThJ> nox-Hand: i'm guessing that's it. do you recognize any of the device files as devices you have, or does it look generic to you?

[04:20] <wweasel> Jack_Sparrow: Think you could help me with Grip?
[04:20] <ianthepetrock> Im trying to install the kernel from the synaptic package manager using the linux-image's, which package should i select if im using an AMD athlon xp?
[04:21] <fyrestrtr> ianthepetrock: linux-686
[04:21] <wweasel> Jack_Sparrow: Grip is ripping CDs fine, but it won't play a track. Sound Juicer and Amarok both play Audio CDs fine.
[04:21] <ianthepetrock> fyrestrtr ok thanks
[04:21] <nox-Hand> In the liveCD, when nothing works - and you think its all loaded, type ALT+F1 on your keyboard. It should go to a text-based client. In that, type "sudo su" then type dpkg-reconfigure xorg - it will ask some questions. Then when done, type /etc/init.d/gdm restart
[04:21] <wweasel> fyrestrtr: Are you sure A-XP isn't k7? I know my A64 is
[04:22] <nox-Hand> If X boots, it's good. If not, check whether you did the dpkg-reconfigure xorg right. If that doesnt work - I cannot help.
[04:22] <nox-Hand> Anaski, Ask about, I must go now
[04:22] <fyrestrtr> wweasel: its not 64 bit afaik.
[04:22] <Jack_Sparrow> wweasel: I dont have an answer for that.
[04:22] <Jack_Sparrow> I am trying to get some work done while lurking here
[04:23] <wweasel> fyrestrtr: No, I wasn't suggesting it was. I was suggesting it might be the 32 bit k7 kernel
[04:23] <ianthepetrock> fyrestrtr and wweasel, i just tried 686 and it broke my x server kind of
[04:23] <ianthepetrock> if that means anything
[04:23] <Anaski> okay
[04:24] <kaot> hey folks using ndiswrapper - Are any of you using wpa/wpa2?  I'm a bit unclear as to whether or not they're compatible.
[04:24] <fyrestrtr> ianthepetrock: were you using binary drivers? that's probably why it 'broke'
[04:24] <ReOli> bom dia pessoal, algum sabe com carregar na mo a /dev/video0 ?
[04:24] <wweasel> ianthepetrock: Yeah, it means that 686 is wrong for you. As I thought
[04:24] <wweasel> ianthepetrock: You need the k7 kernel.
[04:24] <fyrestrtr> no he doesn't.

[04:27] <cybercop> doing it now
[04:27] <kaot> cybercop: I've got the same chipset, with good speeds, but I'm using ndiswrapper and not the kernel drivers, fyi
[04:27] <cybercop> now on ch 3 still doing it
[04:28] <cybercop> i tried ndis first,  got it to install it through ndis, but couldnt figure out how to use it
[04:29] <kaot> cybercop: how to use what?
[04:29] <Jack_Sparrow> Do you know how to use dpkg to create a list of installed packages that I can move to another machine and have that machine install those same packages
[04:29] <nostGONE> i'm running ubuntu server (6.06 iirc) with 2 raid5 arrays. every now and then, one of the disks in my sata raid5 array throws dmesg errors about status=0x50 DriveReady, SeekComplete and something about No Sense -- does that ring a bell for anyone ?
[04:29] <Russel> hiho
[04:29] <Russel> where can i find the xvmc library? locate doesn't find it, but aptitude tells me, it is installed
[04:30] <kaot> nostGONE: have you tried sticking the exact error message (perhaps truncated a bit) into google?
[04:30] <StephenL> Russel:  Did you run an updatedb before using locate?
[04:30] <nostGONE> yea, but nothing useful
[04:30] <cybercop> couldn't figure out how to make ubuntu add it as a network. Ndiswrapper said it was there fine, but didnt give it  an eth number
[04:30] <Russel> StephenL: jep
[04:30] <nostGONE> a bunch of forum posts on various distro boards but no real explanation or solution
[04:31] <bhrobinson> has anyone installed midnight commander?
[04:31] <kaot> cybercop: ndiswrapper will typically identify a card as wlan0 instead of eth[n] .  also, in addition to giving ndiswrapper the drivers to use you have to modprobe ndiswrapper to put ndiswrapper into the kernel
[04:31] <Russel> StephenL: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/21884
[04:32] <wonea> go the error, C compiler cannot create executables, when running ./configure   ?

[04:34] <StephenL> what was it russel?
[04:34] <kaot> cybercop: network manager isn't always very bright, I've found, although that isn't necessarily what your problem was.  Could be you just had the wrong drivers.  I had a tough time finding the ones that would work with my card + ndiswrapper --
[04:35] <kaot> the ones on the card's driver & software disk didn't work, neither did most of the others I found via searching forums and whatnot.
[04:35] <cybercop> would like to get this xp home off of this new laptop.  most of my other cards were prism2, never had to mess with them

[04:35] <kaot> cybercop: but anyway your speed problem might not even be caused by driver issues, could just be a signal thing.  STill i wouldn't rule out driver problems, either.  Fun!

[04:42] <Jack_Sparrow> oskude: yea, I get the list but how do I get the other system to read that list and install the packages
[04:42] <cybercop> mine is internal, no lights to worry about
[04:42] <kaot> cybercop: well, if you're judging by this download, keep in mind this is coming off my cable modem connection, which has poor upstream
[04:42] <kaot> cybercop: so it will be slow.
[04:42] <Jack_Sparrow> oskude: dpkg --get-selections < myprog.txt only sets the list.. it does not install them

[04:42] <cybercop> makes sense. i was going by that
[04:42] <oskude> Jack_Sparrow: you need apt-get or aptitude for that, iirc

[04:45] <Jack_Sparrow> thakns will lookj

[04:46] <kaot> cybercop: sudo gedit /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist, add a line "bcm43xx"
[04:46] <bavalde> the mouse works ok on other systems and (ahemm...) XP on the same machine if booting up that mess...:-)

[04:57] <Tomtheman70> oskude, when I have internet of course.
[04:57] <bignose_> apt-get install postgresql-8.1 seems to set some authentication options i wouldn't expect. is there a way to see the documentation for the default setup of it ? as typically pg_hba.conf is less restrictive.
[04:57] <Jack_Sparrow> Tomtheman70: LAptops by nature are portable, why not walk it to a freind with internet access
[04:57] <oskude> Tomtheman70: yes, if you have internet access. but you may need to change the driver in /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[04:57] <Tomtheman70> Jack_Sparrow, I haven't set up my wireless card on the laptop yet.
[04:58] <Jack_Sparrow> ah
[04:58] <acersales> hi i have my lampp installed in /opt folderbut my user cannot write in that folder how to all user to write in that folder
[04:58] <Jack_Sparrow> Tomtheman70: wouldnt that be a better place to start?
[04:58] <SanketMedhi> acersales: use sudo before the command
[04:58] <Jack_Sparrow> Tomtheman70: NOt trying to be a smart alex
[04:58] <Tomtheman70> Jack_sparrow, I have yet to read up on how to set up the WPC54GV2 card
[04:59] <acersales> SanketMedhi, i am using php editor to write my files there
[04:59] <oskude> Tomtheman70: so you install that driver with "sudo apt-get install xorg-driver-fglrx" and edit with this "sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf" and change "Driver          "ati"" to "Driver "fglrx" then restart gnome
[04:59] <Tomtheman70> Jack_Sparrow, I had it hard wired in but now my desktop is using that cable.
[04:59] <SanketMedhi> acersales: change the perms of that dir to which you are writing
[04:59] <nostGONE> i'm running ubuntu server (6.06 iirc) with 2 raid5 arrays. every now and then, one of the disks in my sata raid5 array throws dmesg errors about status=0x50 DriveReady, SeekComplete and something about No Sense -- does that ring a bell for anyone ?
[04:59] <acersales> SanketMedhi, how to change that ?
[04:59] <Tomtheman70> oskude, thank you very much
[04:59] <wweasel> kopete
[04:59] <Jack_Sparrow> Tomtheman70: switches and routers are cheap.
[04:59] <acersales> SanketMedhi,  from where ? chmod is not working
[04:59] <SanketMedhi> acersales: sudo chown -R user.group /path/to/directory
[05:00] <Tomtheman70> Jack_Sparrow, I'm cheap :P
[05:00] <SanketMedhi> acersales: orgo to Applications >> System Tools >> File Browser (root) and then change perms
[05:00] <CyberMad> when i did ./configure i got this error:  configure: error: You MUST have the libxml2 (aka gnome-xml) library installed, and then i tried apt-get install libxml2 but the libxml2 is already the newest version. What's wrong?  I already tried to in development version, but i got same error.. the package is kannel for SMS Gateway.
[05:00] <Jack_Sparrow> nostGONE: Only thought is that your raid bus is sharing an interrupt in the bios/cmos
[05:01] <Tomtheman70> Jack_Sparrow, so can you help me install my wireless card?
[05:01] <nostGONE> Jack_Sparrow, currently i'm hosting it on an extremely crappy mobo, so that would be possible. is it dangerous?
[05:01] <oskude> CyberMad: i think !compiling would have said that you need *-dev packages for compiling...
[05:01] <nostGONE> Jack_Sparrow, i'm looking to buy new equipment in a month, maybe 2
[05:01] <Tomtheman70> !WPC54G
[05:01] <Jack_Sparrow> nostGONE: Reformatting is easy  :(
[05:01] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about WPC54G - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:01] <Jack_Sparrow> !broadcom
[05:01] <ubotu> Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[05:01] <CyberMad> oskude ok :)
[05:01] <nostGONE> Jack_Sparrow, it's a 1.1TB raid5 array filled with data... reformatting is not an option
[05:01] <nostGONE> (they're not my system disks)
[05:02] <nostGONE> i'm just wondering if if it's an atual error/warning or just an info msg
[05:02] <nostGONE> *actual
[05:02] <acersales> SanketMedhi, it worked by chown thanks man :D takecare
[05:02] <Jack_Sparrow> nostGONE: If you do nothing you will probably end up with a corrupt disk.. Just my opinion..
[05:02] <nostGONE> ok, so i better start looking for new equip sooner than expected :)
[05:03] <Tomtheman70> Can someone please help me set up my WPC54G wireless card?
[05:04] <kitche> Tomtheman70: what's the chipset do you know?
[05:04] <oskude> Tomtheman70: maybe this could help https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/LinksysWPC54G
[05:04] <Jack_Sparrow> nostGONE: A possible thought is to use pnpbios=off in your boot config to try and stop the sharing.. if there is sharing..  You are in a very grey area with few hard answers
[05:04] <Bastiq> when will there be a package for the latest nvidia driver?
[05:04] <kaot> whoa no wheel group in ubuntu??  Golly.
[05:04] <CyberMad> !compiling
[05:04] <ubotu> Compiling software from source? Read the tips at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompilingSoftware (But remember to search for pre-built !packages first: not all !repositories are enabled by default!)
[05:04] <Tomtheman70> kitche, chipset on the laptop? All I know is that its a Pentium 2
[05:04] <SanketMedhi> kaot: admin group
[05:04] <nostGONE> Jack_Sparrow, i noticed :) the mobo is a lame ECS board with via chipsets.. 3 pci slots, 2 of which are used by sata/ide controllers
[05:05] <kaot> SanketMedhi: yeh I'd guessed.  Just not used to seeing that.
[05:05] <sorush20> where are the linux printing quota stored for each user in cups?
[05:05] <oskude> Bastiq: if theres something not working with the current version, maybe you can do a bug report... at nvidia ;)
[05:05] <nostGONE> if i plug a 3rd one (NIC) the system goes bzrk
[05:05] <ucordes_> can anyone tell me how to get rid of vmware server? i had to compile myself so it's not in synaptic...
[05:05] <Bastiq> oskude: I don't know why but i get poor performance in games and there's something wrong with some textures.
[05:05] <Jack_Sparrow> nostGONE: Scary...
[05:05] <nostGONE> very much
[05:05] <SanketMedhi> kaot: ok
[05:05] <oskude> Bastiq: and youre sure its a driver issue ? are those "pure" linux games ?
[05:06] <neutrinomass> ucordes_: Unpack the source archive. Then do "./configure" and then "make uninstall"
[05:06] <shawnr_> sorush20, you should be able to log into the cups web interface as root. don't know if it will show what your looking for
[05:06] <ucordes_> neutrinomass: thanks a lot
[05:06] <CyberMad> oskude i already install the build-essential
[05:06] <Bastiq> oskude: Native linux games, yes. I'm not sure it's the driver but that's what i'm trying atm. I've tried NwN and UT2004 and both are the same.
[05:06] <Guard] [an> hi
[05:07] <Kaeles> What are the minimum reqs for an xubuntu box
[05:07] <Kaeles> or is there a lighter version than even xubuntu?
[05:07] <Guard] [an> please, i have no RS232 port on my laptop but found an USB/RS232 cable on a desk. do you think i need drivers for this ?
[05:07] <linuchsan>  ucordes_:look for vmware-uninstall
[05:07] <Tomtheman70> Kaeles, someone suggested to me to use Damn Small Linux.
[05:07] <oskude> Bastiq: hmm... maybe looking on ut2004 forums with your card and linux... or google...
[05:07] <Bastiq> I have.
[05:08] <Kaeles> Well, the reason I'm asking is because I was thinking about giving away some old boxes I have, and wanted an easy to use distro on them.
[05:08] <kitche> Tomtheman70: since it's easier to set up the network card if you know the chipset
[05:08] <SanketMedhi> Kaeles: xubuntu is good
[05:08] <shawnr_> Kaeles, i'll take em ;p
[05:08] <oskude> CyberMad: and the -dev package of the needed library ?
[05:08] <Kaeles> Would a k6-233 with 64mb of ram run it ok?
[05:08] <Jack_Sparrow> no
[05:08] <Kaeles> lol
[05:09] <Tomtheman70> kitche, well, first off, I can't have internet and have the card plugged in at the same time. The Ethernet card takes up both PCI slots, and I can't have the wireless and internet at the same time.
[05:09] <SanketMedhi> Kaeles: what is a k6-233? 233 MHZ?
[05:09] <Wanderer> anyone know any neat tricks about the ati glx on a laptop?  the page from '!ati" didn't help
[05:09] <oskude> Kaeles: im pretty sure it should work, i got a debian with xubuntu on 233mhz 63mb
[05:09] <ucordes_> anyone knows a way to run vmware while on xgl host?
[05:09] <Kaeles> SanketMedhi: yea its a amd k6- 233mhz
[05:09] <SanketMedhi> ok
[05:09] <shawnr_> Kaeles, you might be able to get away with the alternate cd install of xubuntu with 64m of ram... but i wouldn't recommened it. it wouldn't be very productive at all
[05:09] <Kaeles> hmm.
[05:09] <jman8888> How can i allow root to login to ftp?
[05:09] <oskude> Kaeles: downt believe the flames, just try it out !
[05:09] <SanketMedhi> Kaeles: its worth giving a try
[05:10] <shawnr_> Kaeles, i would go base debian sarge install with blackbox or fluxbox
[05:10] <Kaeles> ok
[05:10] <Bastiq> oskude: You'r free to try. It's a 6600GT.
[05:10] <Gagatan> hi
[05:10] <Jack_Sparrow> Kaeles: I throw away anything under 500 and give away anything under 1ghz
[05:10] <Killer_Demon> xubuntu works very well too on my amd k6-2 400 mhz with 32 mb RAM
[05:10] <JoelMax> the x-fi ellite pro sound card working ok on ubuntu?
[05:10] <oskude> Bastiq: free to try what ?
[05:10] <shawnr_> Killer_Demon, yea but lets be reasonable...
[05:10] <Jack_Sparrow> nvidia 6600 here as well
[05:10] <Kaeles> well that explain alot Jack_Sparrow... I have a cluster of 25 k6-233's and 10 p2-400's and it makes my kernel compiles go about 10x faster than on my amd64.
[05:10] <Gagatan> how do I get ubuntu to be more verbose when booting from cd? It's hanging on "loading hardware drivers" right now, and I'd like to figure out why
[05:10] <Bastiq> oskude: Find someone else who had that problem and solved it.
[05:10] <Killer_Demon> shawnr_, its for my sister to be on msn and browse sites
[05:11] <shawnr_> Kaeles, I have base debian sarge with black box on an old pentium with 16 megs of ram
[05:11] <shawnr_> ;p
[05:11] <oskude> Bastiq: hmm, that doesnt have anything to do with ubuntu, so i was just being kind...
[05:11] <shawnr_> and it actually runs... go figure
[05:11] <Kaeles> Yea, but do you think a person who has never used linux could use that shawnr_?
[05:11] <shawnr_> takes 3 years to boot
[05:11] <Bastiq> oskude: Well, i was asking when there will be a packade for the latest driver...
[05:11] <jman8888> Hello how can i allow root to login to ftp? (I think i need to allow it in gdm but i only have terminal)
[05:11] <Killer_Demon> Kaeles my sister is 9 year old and she likes xubuntu more then windows
[05:11] <shawnr_> Kaeles, if you set it up... all the menus in black box with a file manager... probably
[05:11] <Bastiq> package*
[05:12] <oskude> Bastiq: "when its ready" (tm) ;)
[05:12] <niklaus> how to check if the machine has got SDRAM or DDR on it .
[05:12] <Wanderer> DRI is not supported on Radeon 9000/9100 IGP (RS300/RS350) hardware.
[05:12] <SanketMedhi> jman8888: root through ftp is not recommended
[05:12] <kitche> Tomtheman70: ok it's a broadcom card
[05:12] <Kaeles> hmmm, we'll see, I might make a script that does that.
[05:12] <Wanderer> I take it that means no Direct Rendering
[05:12] <shawnr_> Kaeles, just try xubuntu first... see how it runs
[05:12] <Tomtheman70> How would I go about isntalling xchat on my xubuntu box? I have the file on my desktop (xhat_2.6.6-0ubuntu1_i386.deb) but the built in package installer says "Dependency is not satisfiable"
[05:12] <Kaeles> kk
[05:12] <Bastiq> oskude: :P
[05:12] <Jack_Sparrow> Gagatan: Try F6 at the first menu "Start or install" and try a few of these options  Grub Boot Options ide=nodma vga=normal nomce acpi=off pnpbios=off xdrvr=vesa xres=800x600 apm=off
[05:12] <jman8888> SanketMedhi, Well how can i allow a user to be able to do everything to /var/www ?
[05:12] <kitche> Tomtheman70: I know about those real well well first you need the firmware cutter for bcm43xxx
[05:12] <Killer_Demon> Tomtheman70, install the dependency
[05:12] <jman8888> SanketMedhi, Root seemed like a good idea.
[05:13] <SanketMedhi> jman8888: ssh
[05:13] <shawnr_> Toemthem, 'sudo apt-get install xchat'
[05:13] <Paradoxx> I tried to hibernate my laptop, and now it will only start safemode, how do i correct this?
[05:13] <jman8888> SanketMedhi, Yeah but my phpbb mod wants ftp. I normally use ssh but its not a option
[05:13] <Tomtheman70> so, wait, how does linux know to install xchat with that command?
[05:13] <shawnr_> Tomtheman70, 'sudo apt-get install xchat'
[05:14] <Gagatan> Jack_Sparrow: thanks.. will try
[05:14] <Tomtheman70> shawnr_, and it didn't work.
[05:14] <Killer_Demon> Paradoxx, i had it too, then i booted a older kernel, restarted the pc and now the new kernel works again
[05:14] <oskude> !xchat
[05:14] <SanketMedhi> jman8888: which/where is the ftp server?
[05:14] <ubotu> xchat: IRC client for X similar to AmIRC. In component universe, is optional. Version 2.6.1-0ubuntu2 (dapper), package size 254 kB, installed size 720 kB
[05:14] <shawnr_> Tomtheman70, it might be xchat2
[05:14] <Kaeles> Tomtheman70: try apt-cache search xchat
[05:14] <Paradoxx> Killer_Demon: kk i will try that
[05:14] <Paradoxx> shawnr_: isn't it chat-gnome
[05:14] <oskude> Tomtheman70: it seems to be in universe repo
[05:14] <Paradoxx> shawnr_: isn't it xchat-gnome**
[05:14] <shawnr_> Paradoxx, no it isn't
[05:14] <Kaeles> Tomtheman70: then type apt-get install whateverThePackageNameIs
[05:14] <shawnr_> Paradoxx, Thats different
[05:14] <Killer_Demon> Paradoxx, if it still crashes, reinstall the kernel
[05:14] <JoelMax> the x-fi ellite pro sound card working on ubuntu?
[05:14] <Tomtheman70> its xchat-gnome.
[05:14] <Paradoxx> Killer_Demon: hwo do i go about doing that?
[05:15] <Kaeles> Tomtheman70: then apt-get install xchat-gnome
[05:15] <Kaeles> :P
[05:15] <Bastiq> I prefer issri...
[05:15] <Bastiq> irssi*
[05:15] <Killer_Demon> with the package installer program
[05:15] <Killer_Demon> synaptic program manager or so
[05:15] <shawnr_> NO NO NO
[05:15] <Jack_Sparrow> JoelMax: HAve you looked to see if it supported in the hardware list
[05:15] <Tomtheman70> Kaeles, thank you, its installing, but its asking for the xbunutu disc.. why?
[05:15] <Jack_Sparrow> !hardware
[05:15] <ubotu> For lists of supported hardware on Ubuntu see: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupport
[05:15] <Paradoxx> Killer_Demon: so just search for kernel headers?
[05:15] <Killer_Demon> Paradoxx
[05:15] <shawnr_> Tomtheman70, xchat-gnome is NOT xchat
[05:15] <shawnr_> Tomtheman70, its different
[05:16] <SanketMedhi> Tomtheman70: xchat is CLI I think
[05:16] <Killer_Demon> Paladine search for your kernel and click  mark for reinstall
[05:16] <Tomtheman70> shawnr_, well, I just want an application that'll run IRC
[05:16] <shawnr_> Tomtheman70, its gnome's version and its horrible
[05:16] <Arafangi1n> Is it possible to change the position of window decorations?
[05:16] <Paradoxx> shawnr_: xchat-gnome is just xchat using gtk gui
[05:16] <niklaus> i have a remote machine to which i have root access, how to check if it has SDRAM or DDR
[05:16] <Bastiq> Tomtheman70: type irc in console
[05:16] <Kaeles> Tomtheman70: are you wanting the xchat on the command line or in the GUI system?
[05:16] <Paradoxx> shawnr_: what problems do you have it it, i actually prefer it...
[05:16] <Killer_Demon> [17:16]  <Killer_Demon> Paradoxx search for your kernel and click  mark for reinstall
[05:16] <Arafangi1n> Specifically, I want to either hide the decorations, or put them on the _side_.
[05:16] <shawnr_> Paradoxx, the lack of functionality is horrible
[05:16] <Paradoxx> Killer_Demon: kk, will do...
[05:16] <Tomtheman70> Kaeles, I have no idea.
[05:16] <JoelMax> Jack_Sparrow, Thanks
[05:16] <Paradoxx> shawnr_: such as?
[05:17] <Arafangi1n> (To maximize vertical space utilization)
[05:17] <Jack_Sparrow> morning gnomefreak
[05:17] <Kaeles> Tomtheman70: I mean, in the windows system or in the text-based-command line thing?
[05:17] <Jack_Sparrow> good luck JoelMax
[05:17] <shawnr_> let me install it and tell you i forget
[05:17] <gnomefreak> morning
[05:17] <Tomtheman70> Kaeles, I'm using the terminal to install it because the GUI way won't work.
[05:17] <Paradoxx> shawnr_: kk, brb, i'm gonna trty and get my machine back up
[05:17] <Killer_Demon> i'm now reinstalling xubuntu because the voodoo3 drivers crashed X, and without it it only goes to 640x480,  anyone can help?
[05:17] <JoelMax> Jack_Sparrow, i dont see that card in the list
[05:17] <Jack_Sparrow> Tag me I'm outa here.  Gotta get my honey do's done.. back later.  Good luck all.
[05:18] <Kaeles> Tomtheman70: thats because you have to be root to install things, your user account doesn't have the privelage to do so.
[05:18] <neutrinomass> !fixres > Killer_Demon
[05:18] <Jack_Sparrow> JoelMax: In your manual is it compatable with anything like soundblaser?
[05:18] <Kaeles> Tomtheman70: thats why you type sudo, it runs whatever is after sudo as the root.
[05:18] <neutrinomass> Killer_Demon: Follow the instructions there to fix your resolution :-)
[05:18] <Tomtheman70> Kaeles, so I just pretty much need to use sudo before each command?
[05:19] <Kaeles> Tomtheman70: no
[05:19] <Kaeles> Tomtheman70: only to use Apt-get
[05:19] <Jack_Sparrow> gksudo before running a gui app
[05:19] <Jack_Sparrow> later...
[05:19] <Tomtheman70> Kaeles, ok. I just got linux like 4 hours ago and I've been really lost since.
[05:19] <fallingdutch> trying to install ubuntu by hand and get an error when installung ubuntu-desktop: "gimp-svg: Depends: gimp (=2.2.11-1ubuntu3) but 2.2.11-1ubuntu3.1 is to be installed" how can i get rid of this error?
[05:19] <Kaeles> Tomtheman70: or any program like a server.
[05:19] <Kaeles> Tomtheman70: you have used windows?
[05:19] <Tomtheman70> Kaeles, thats what I'm on right now.
[05:19] <JoelMax> Jack_Sparrow, http://www.alsa-project.org/alsa-doc/index.php?vendor=vendor-Creative_Labs#matrix
[05:19] <Killer_Demon> neutrinomass, i'm allready reinstalling, but the problem is a pure 3dfx-on-ubuntu issue
[05:19] <oskude> fallingdutch: lol, that seems like bug :/
[05:20] <MeusH> hello
[05:20] <Tomtheman70> Kaeles, my xubuntu laptop is right next to me.
[05:20] <Kaeles> Tomtheman70: ok, the Root account is alot like the Administrator account in windows
[05:20] <Tomtheman70> Kaeles, well, I get that. :D
[05:20] <jman8888> SanketMedhi, Its on <IP_ADDRESS> /var/www
[05:20] <fallingdutch> oskude, what i thought but not wanted to hear :(
[05:20] <oskude> fallingdutch: are you using "official" ubuntu repos ?
[05:20] <Arafangi1n> Tomtheman70: I feel lost on windows :)
[05:20] <Anon5935> any idea why I would lose video signal when 'switching users'?
[05:21] <Killer_Demon> fallingdutch, wat is het probleem?
[05:21] <ompaul> !nl
[05:21] <ubotu> Nederlandstalige ondersteuning voor Ubuntu (en vers gezette koffie) is te vinden in #ubuntu-nl
[05:21] <fallingdutch> oskude, yes
[05:21] <oskude> fallingdutch: as i dont have 2.2.11-ubuntu3.1
[05:21] <fallingdutch> archive.ubuntu.com
[05:22] <oskude> fallingdutch: hmm... maybe they are updating atm...
[05:22] <ompaul> fallingdutch, are you trying to install edgy?
[05:22] <fallingdutch> ompaul, dapper
[05:22] <wweasel> Does anyone here know how I can prevent a focused window from flashing on the taskbar? I don't mind it when unfocused windows do it, but Kopete seems to flash sometimes even when it's in focus.
[05:22] <bengoodger> wweasel, that's kopete's fault
[05:23] <bengoodger> it's probably configurable
[05:23] <Killer_Demon> fallingdutch, kom naar #ubuntu-nl  als je nederlandse hulp wilt :)
[05:23] <bengoodger> gaim has an option to stop drawing attention to itself when it's clicked, for instance
[05:23] <ompaul> falling okay do this sudo apt-get update and try again
[05:23] <oskude> fallingdutch: oh, i see 3.1 in packages.ubuntu.com... but fi.archive doesnt have it yet...
[05:23] <ompaul> fallingdutch,  okay do this sudo apt-get update and try again
[05:24] <fallingdutch> ompaul, already made an update
[05:24] <Gagatan> Jack_Sparrow: that helped a bit.. I now can see it hangs after loading networkdriver (tg3), but I don't know which drivers it hangs on - no errormessage
[05:24] <oskude> fallingdutch: upgrade
[05:24] <wweasel> bengoodger: It's doesn't seem to be Kopete's. I've been experimenting with a friend on 2 different systems. We tried KMess, Kopete, Gaim and Konversation on my system and his.  They all work properly in KDE, but Kopete and Konversation both flash in the taskbar when focused in Gnome.
[05:24] <SanketMedhi> jman8888: sorry to be replying late. but I don't understand, you can edit the conf file to allow root and you can't change the perms directly on that machine or through ssh?
[05:24] <Paddy_EIRE> Is there any Linux courses that I can take online to gain a recognised qualification
[05:24] <wweasel> bengoodger: And it seems that KMess and Kopete call attention to themselves in the same way.
[05:24] <bengoodger> wweasel: hmm
[05:24] <fallingdutch> oskude, upgrade, too
[05:24] <ompaul> fallingdutch, then do this >> sudo apt-get upgrade << it just brings your other base packages into line with each other
[05:25] <Paddy_EIRE> Specifically Ubuntu Courses
[05:25] <oskude> fallingdutch: ment, try sudo apt-get upgrade (or is that the point where it hangs?)
[05:25] <sorush20> I would like to have a printer management system is there one that you could recommend?
[05:25] <Gagatan> Paddy_EIRE: redhat certified profesional afaik
[05:25] <bengoodger> wweasel: they all use freedesktop-defined standard wm calls
[05:25] <jman8888> Im trying to install easymod. It needs accsess to the forums folder to install mods. So i need to know how to do that..
[05:25] <bengoodger> wweasel: I'd file a bug in kopete
[05:25] <bengoodger> anyone who can code in C or C++ and who can write a program for a company (payment possible) please join me in #fles
 Does this have to be paid for or is there a site that I can look at available courses
[05:26] <fallingdutch> ompaul, oskude, done a "aptitude update" and then a "aptitude upgrade" then the "aptitude install ubuntu-desktop" and then i get the above error
[05:26] <Gagatan> Paddy_EIRE: redhat.com .. for ubuntu look at ubuntu.com
[05:26] <fallingdutch> Killer_Demon, dank je, maar mijn nederlands is niet echt goed
[05:27] <bengoodger> ech, red hat
[05:27] <bengoodger> fallingdutch: is that actual dutch?
[05:27] <ompaul> bengoodger, he thanked someone that offered to talk with him in dutch and said that his dutch was not so good :)
[05:28] <bengoodger> I know what he said, ompaul
[05:28] <bengoodger> it's blatantly obvious because it's exactly the same as english
[05:28] <bengoodger> ho hum
[05:28] <bengoodger> anyone who can code in C or C++ and who can write a program for a company (payment possible) please join me in #fles
[05:28] <ompaul> bengoodger, I think it is closer german myself but then I would :)
[05:28] <richard> KfileReplace is an awesome program!!! SOOO greatful to you guys
[05:29] <fallingdutch> ompaul, an idea what to do now?
[05:29] <bengoodger> ompaul: feh
[05:29] <McFlyMarty> hi
[05:29] <fallingdutch> oskude, do you have an idea how i can continue with my install?
[05:29] <ompaul> bengoodger, this is way off topic so it is my final comment on it, olde english is actually derived from saxon amoung other places and it is like a local dialect in northern holland today :)
[05:30] <Psych0tiC> During boot the system displays the following message: "Kernel panic - not syncing: Attempted to kill init!
[05:30] <bengoodger> ompaul: I know english's etymological history
[05:30] <bengoodger> anyone who can code in C or C++ and who can write a program for a company (payment possible) please join me in #fles
[05:30] <McFlyMarty> I'm trying to install gpass but after running ./configure I get an error that says I need glib-2.0, gthread, gmodule and gobject
[05:30] <bengoodger> McFlyMarty: install them, then...?
[05:31] <SanketMedhi> Psych0tiC: did you mess with your system?
[05:31] <McFlyMarty> i cant find them on ubuntu
[05:31] <McFlyMarty> otherwise id do that already
[05:31] <Psych0tiC> no.. I did not mess with my system, I installed it last night and it worked fine...
[05:31] <Psych0tiC> this morning - it didn't
[05:31] <SanketMedhi> Psych0tiC: did you change any hardware settings?
[05:31] <Psych0tiC> but I did remove a cd drive (could that have caused  it?
[05:31] <bengoodger> McFlyMarty: I'll see if it's buries anywhere
[05:31] <SanketMedhi> Psych0tiC: yes
[05:32] <SanketMedhi> Psych0tiC: did you also move your HDD position?
[05:32] <Psych0tiC> nope
[05:32] <McFlyMarty> bengoodger: ok, thx
[05:32] <Psych0tiC> I only removed the CD drive...
[05:32] <neutrinomass> McFlyMarty: libglib2.0-dev is the package you are looking for ..
[05:32] <ompaul> fallingdutch, paste your /etc/apt/sources.list in the paste.ubuntu-nl.org and give us the url maybe it will be obvious from that
[05:32] <oskude> fallingdutch: sorry was afk, hmm...
[05:32] <McFlyMarty> Im gonna check right know
[05:32] <Psych0tiC> so if I put the cd drive back in... would that fix it ?
[05:32] <neutrinomass> McFlyMarty: Maybe it's pthread and not gthread ?
[05:32] <bengoodger> McFlyMarty: glib-2.0 is libglib2.0-0
[05:32] <SanketMedhi> Psych0tiC: maybe, but you can do it otherwise too
[05:33] <wweasel> Is there a way to make Gnome prevent taskbar windows from flashign if they have focus?
[05:33] <Psych0tiC> how ?
[05:33] <oskude> fallingdutch: yup, we need more info... and ompaul knows alot ;)
[05:33] <Paradoxx> For multicore processors, i need to install linux686-smp?
[05:33] <Paradoxx> !smp
[05:33] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about smp - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:33] <linuchsan>  Psych0tiC: did you pull a pci card with it as well
[05:33] <Psych0tiC> no...
[05:33] <Paradoxx> For multicore processors, i need to install linux686-smp?
[05:33] <neutrinomass> McFlyMarty: Actually, grab "gnome-core-devel" and you'll be OK with most dependencies ...
[05:34] <SanketMedhi> Paradoxx: yes
[05:34] <ompaul> oskude, why thank you :-)
[05:34] <bengoodger> McFlyMarty: I can't find any others, I'm afraid
[05:34] <McFlyMarty> thx
[05:34] <bengoodger> McFlyMarty: welcome to dependency hell. have a nice day... you'll need to install each of them from source
[05:34] <McFlyMarty> i dont have installed libglib-2 dev
[05:35] <bengoodger> McFlyMarty: install libglib2.0-2-dev and then do the rest from source, methinks
[05:35] <Paradoxx> SanketMedhi: whats the difference between linux386 and linux686?
[05:35] <neutrinomass> McFlyMarty: Just install 'gnome-core-devel' - it will install most gnome devel packages that you will need ...
[05:35] <McFlyMarty> im gonna try installing libglib 2 like u say
[05:35] <oskude> Paradoxx: the supported/optimized processor
[05:35] <McFlyMarty> i tell u then what happened
[05:35] <McFlyMarty> :P
[05:35] <bengoodger> Paradoxx: 386 is for 386 processors, 686 is for pentium 2 or better
[05:35] <Psych0tiC> so how do I fix the kernel panic rpoblem ?
[05:36] <Paradoxx> bengoodger i have 386 and 686 installed atm, should in uninstall 386?
[05:36] <fallingdutch> ompaul, paste.ubuntu-nl.org/21887
[05:36] <SanketMedhi> Paradoxx: no
[05:36] <Paradoxx> SanketMedhi: kk
[05:36] <SanketMedhi> Paradoxx: it doesn't matter
[05:36] <bengoodger> Paradoxx: only if you want to. you can keep it without harming the system
[05:36] <Paddy_EIRE> jeeze it is difficult to choose a password for linux.org
[05:36] <Paradoxx> bengoodger: kk, thx
[05:36] <Paradoxx> brb, gonna reinstall headers
[05:36] <Killer_Demon> Paradoxx what cpu do you have
[05:36] <mlehrer> Paradoxx: run uname -a
[05:36] <bengoodger> Paradoxx: it's the one you choose on boot that matters
[05:36] <mlehrer> Paradoxx: to make sure you boot on the proper kernel
[05:37] <Paradoxx> Killer_Demon: i have an amd x2 turion proc
[05:37] <ompaul> fallingdutch, leave out the word sudo but you seem to be anyway ,,,,
[05:37] <Killer_Demon> lol
[05:37] <mlehrer> Paradoxx: 686 is best for that
[05:37] <bengoodger> Paradoxx: is that a 64-bit one?
[05:37] <mlehrer> i have a couple of those too
[05:37] <Paradoxx> bengoodger: yep
[05:37] <oskude> fallingdutch: i have / after ubuntu, like this "deb http://fi.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ dapper main" but dunno if thats a problem...
[05:37] <mlehrer> Real Nice
[05:37] <don_jr> Is it possible to install an HP printer in ubuntu?
[05:38] <bengoodger> Paradoxx: K8 then, very probably
[05:38] <Paradoxx> bengoodger: but i'm using the 32bit ubuntu, for less stress
[05:38] <Killer_Demon> i have a k7 athlon xp and the k7 kernel works very nice for me
[05:38] <mlehrer> Paradoxx: use 686
[05:38] <Psych0tiC> SanketMedhi, do you know how I can fix it without puttin the hard drive back in ?
[05:38] <bengoodger> Paradoxx: try and see if you can find a k8 kernel
[05:38] <Paddy_EIRE> is there a password generator out there for ubuntu
[05:38] <Paradoxx> bengoodger: kk, will do
[05:38] <NemesisUK> don_jr, yeah it is,use the add printer wizard for you model
[05:38] <fallingdutch> oskude, i have them copied from the liveCD
[05:38] <mlehrer> k8 isn't built for 32 bit unless you compile your own
[05:38] <SanketMedhi> Psych0tiC: do you know whether your HDD is primary/secondary master/slave?
[05:38] <bengoodger> Paradoxx: it'll be far faster than the i386 or i686 one
[05:38] <mlehrer> Paradoxx: don't waste your time
[05:38] <fallingdutch> ompaul, yes, i am working as root
[05:38] <Psych0tiC> primary master
[05:39] <don_jr> NemesisUK add printer wizard?  I'll look for it, thanx
[05:39] <fallingdutch> ompaul, and i know when to type sudo when not :-)
[05:39] <abd> hello
[05:39] <bengoodger> anyone who can code in C or C++ and who can write a program for a company (payment possible) please join me in #fles
[05:39] <NemesisUK> don_jr, its in administration
[05:39] <Killer_Demon> Paradoxx the 686 doesnt use the extra k8 instructions, so with the matching kernel it should be much better
[05:39] <oskude> fallingdutch: do a pastebin of the command uprgade and its error...
[05:39] <oskude> fallingdutch: and do (again) sudo apt-get update before that :)
[05:39] <Anon5935> is the 64 bit required for 64 bit amd?
[05:39] <don_jr> think I got it.  clicked 'new printer' in the 'printer' menu
[05:39] <mlehrer> Anon5935: no
[05:39] <Paradoxx> mlehrer: y do yousay that?
[05:39] <bengoodger> Anon5935: nope, you can run a 32-bit version
[05:40] <abd> how to recover an openoffice password ?
[05:40] <bengoodger> Anon5935: probably best to do so, in fact
[05:40] <mlehrer> Paradoxx: use k8 if you use 64 bit, 686 if you use 32
[05:40] <kitche> Anon5935: amd64 isn't true 64bit it's x86_64
[05:40] <Paradoxx> mlehrer: kk
[05:40] <bengoodger> Anon5935: but you can still use a k8 kernel if you're using an AMD 64-bit processor
[05:40] <Anon5935> I installed 64 bit couple days ago, at least I think I did -- should I of installed 32?
[05:41] <Paradoxx> brb, restarting machine to see it if comes up now...
[05:41] <ndlovu> does anyone know how to create a backtrace with gdb if the program has *frozen* rather than crashed?
[05:41] <Psych0tiC> SanketMedhi, it's a primary master...
[05:41] <bengoodger> Anon5935: it might have been best to do so, because there are more packages on x86
[05:41] <NemesisUK> Anon5935, you can install either
[05:41] <mlehrer> Anon5935: depends what you're doing, i would try 64 bit unless you are doing media or wine
[05:41] <kitche> ndlovu: you can use gdb while running the program if it freezes a lot but it's mostly used to look at cores
[05:41] <mlehrer> video codecs suck hard on 64 bit
[05:42] <CyberMad> i read the https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompilingSoftware but i don't understand how to install from *dev ?
[05:42] <mlehrer> in my experience
[05:42] <CVirus> how can I make the lo interface start automatically on boot ?
[05:42] <bengoodger> Anon5935: no flash player on 64 bit
[05:42] <mlehrer> and the nvidia drivers aren't too hot either
[05:42] <bengoodger> etc
[05:42] <hydromet> aloha
[05:42] <SanketMedhi> Psych0tiC: are you sure?
[05:42] <Killer_Demon> much 64bit bugs
[05:42] <Anon5935> the 64 bit does not support 32 bit applications?
[05:42] <Paddy_EIRE> Is there a password generator i can get via "apt-get install" out there for ubuntu
[05:42] <SanketMedhi> Psych0tiC: is it primary master even after removing your cdrom?
[05:42] <ndlovu> kitche: the program is frozen, but if I kill it, gdb doesn't seem to be able to get any useful information from it
[05:42] <Killer_Demon> and intel conroe has 64bit performance drops too
[05:42] <abd> how to recover an openoffice password ?
[05:42] <Psych0tiC> SanketMedhi, I'm sure because I put it in that place :)
[05:42] <SanketMedhi> Anon5935: no
[05:42] <kitche> Anon5935: only if you install the 32bit libs or use a chroot
[05:42] <bengoodger> Anon5935: the 64 bit version of ubuntu doesn't include 32-bit programs, and making it work with them is difficult
[05:42] <Psych0tiC> SanketMedhi, yes, the cd drive was secondary master
[05:43] <hydromet> I am wondering, is it possible to mount an HFSX disc volume (built with Mac OS X Tiger) to a Ubuntu system (either Ubuntu for Intel or Ubuntu for PowerPC)?
[05:43] <oskude> CyberMad: its normally like the "normal" package name, but with -dev. it contains the headers of the program, those are mostly needed when comiling
[05:43] <ndlovu> kitche, but I don't know how to tell gdb to run a backtrace in its current (frozen) state?
[05:43] <bengoodger> Anon5935: the 32-bit one works fine on 64-bit
[05:43] <mlehrer> we use 64 bit on DB & http servers, it works pretty well
[05:43] <matthewf> ok so ive transfered about 2k in mp3s from my mac to the ubuntu box today via NFS, but none of them are playing on the ubunti box at all ... its like the files are corrupt as playback starts but then stops a second later ... anyone have any ideas ?
[05:43] <bengoodger> anyone who can code in C or C++ and who can write a program for a company (payment possible) please join me in #fles
[05:43] <Killer_Demon> hydromet, look for a support package?
[05:43] <gnomefreak> bengoodger: please dont spam in here
[05:43] <oskude> CyberMad: you can search with "apt-cache search foo dev" if youre looking for the development (header) files of programm/pakage foo
[05:43] <fallingdutch> ompaul, oskude brb
 u do have mp3 support dont u
[05:43] <SanketMedhi> Psych0tiC: cat /etc/fstab | grep "/ "
[05:43] <linuchsan> CVirus: in /etc/network/interfaces
[05:44] <bengoodger> gnomefreak: I'm not spamming, I'm merely repeating my plea to the new people
[05:44] <SanketMedhi> Psych0tiC: there is a space after /
[05:44] <matthewf> Paddy_EIRE: i have the xine engine installed
[05:44] <don_jr> I sit possible to get/use sudo in gnome?
[05:44] <Paradoxx> kk, woot..
[05:44] <gnomefreak> bengoodger: this is not the channel for it at all
[05:44] <Paradoxx> its back up to normal
[05:44] <Anon5935> good chance I will switch to x86
[05:44] <ompaul> don_jr, better to use gksudo
[05:44] <bengoodger> gnomefreak: it's the channel about ubuntu, yes?
[05:44] <gnomefreak> bengoodger: this is a support channel only. your tryingt o get people to do a job that is spam
[05:44] <CVirus> linuchsan: what exactly should I add ?
[05:44] <Psych0tiC> but I can't type anything...
 have you tried ripping an audio track from cd to mp3 then playing it
[05:44] <Anon5935> is anything different needed for dual core?
[05:44] <Paradoxx> install smp kernel headers now
[05:44] <Psych0tiC> I get this error during boot
[05:44] <don_jr> ompaul how's that work?  I'm very new to nix/ubuntu and not sure where to find stuff outside of the gui right now
[05:45] <bengoodger> gnomefreak: where do people go to talk about ubuntu, then? and grammar helps
[05:45] <linuchsan> CVirus: what you have now?
[05:45] <SanketMedhi> Psych0tiC: you will need to boot in rescue mode
[05:45] <matthewf> Paddy_EIRE: ive tryed playback in amarok and xfmedia .. nothing happens
[05:45] <CyberMad> thanks oskude i will try it
[05:45] <CVirus> linuchsan: its empty
[05:45] <gnomefreak> bengoodger: try #ubuntu-offtopic?
[05:45] <Psych0tiC> rescue mode? recovery mode ?
[05:45] <Paradoxx> shawarma:  what was the functionality you said was missing?
[05:45] <niklas_e> is there any flash 8 player for ubuntu that works with firefox?
[05:45] <kitche> bengooder: your spam has nothing to do with ubuntu really
[05:45] <gnomefreak> niklas_e: no
[05:45] <SanketMedhi> Psych0tiC: include my nick in your message, else I won't know who you are talking to
[05:45] <SanketMedhi> Psych0tiC: same thing
[05:45] <oskude> CyberMad: what library headers do you need ? and what are you compiling ?
[05:45] <npster> What were the restricted music extentions libs ?
[05:45] <don_jr> niklas_e search in synoptic for flash media player.  They ahve it there, I've got and used it
[05:45] <Psych0tiC> SanketMedhi, ok
[05:45] <linuchsan> CVirus: that's boring
[05:46] <gnomefreak> npster: like mp3?
[05:46] <npster> yeah
[05:46] <ompaul> don_jr, if something needs sudo it will as for the password and invoke gksudo so I would not worry about it - that is how you would invoke it from the command line
[05:46] <Paradoxx> should i notice a large difference with the smp kernel headers installed?
[05:46] <gnomefreak> !mp3 > npster
[05:46] <bengoodger> kitche: my spam is about writing a program to add a much-needed feature to APT and improve edubuntu's "enterprise school" compatibility
 i mean have you tried playing an mp3 that hasnt been transfered over from your mac, e.g. a download or one ripped from disc straight to ubuntu box just to confirm that your machine does play mp3
[05:46] <don_jr> ompaul I want to remove a printer, but the 'remove' option is greyed out.  How can I get it to come up if I'm not admin?
[05:46] <linuchsan> CVirus: ifconfig will give you nothing
[05:46] <npster> gnomefreak: Yeah, I have some internet troubles so can you just tell me the name of the lib ?
[05:46] <Psych0tiC> SanketMedhi, when I choose recovery mode it tries to boot and then gives me the same error
[05:47] <kitche> bengoodger: well join #edubuntu
[05:47] <gnomefreak> npster: there isnt just one
[05:47] <ompaul> don_jr, you need to click on system administration pronting
[05:47] <CVirus> linuchsan: ifconfig is giving me the eth0 and ra0
[05:47] <matthewf> Paddy_EIRE: ive installed zine engine,amarok and gzine and thats it... do i need something spesificly for mp3 that is not in those packages ?
[05:47] <bengoodger> kitche: I shall do so.
[05:47] <don_jr> ompaul I found it, thank you
[05:47] <Paradoxx> should i notice a large difference with the smp kernel headers installed?
[05:47] <oskude> Paradoxx: i doubt (but i never used smp)
[05:47] <npster> gnomefreak: I know it is like this lib<something>-<something> that one
[05:47] <ompaul> bengoodger, as for getting a change into apt - you would need to write a spec and have it accepted before you would get it accepted into the main distro
[05:47] <CyberMad> oskude i compiling "kannel" (without "") and i got this error:  configure: error: You MUST have the libxml2 (aka gnome-xml) library installed.
[05:47] <gnomefreak> npster: there are many libs for restricted music formats
[05:47] <Paradoxx> oskude: kk
[05:48] <gnomefreak> npster: not all some are gstreamer
[05:48] <SanketMedhi> Psych0tiC: then use a live CD, mount the root partition and change /etc/fstab
[05:48] <npster> gnomefreak: I need only mp3 and mpeg files
[05:48] <Paradoxx> How do i go about installing the latest nvidia drivers?
[05:48] <SanketMedhi> Psych0tiC: login to IRC from the live cd
[05:48] <ompaul> bengoodger, poke around on wiki.ubuntu.com for spec and on launchpad for spec before you go getting someone to do any coding
[05:48] <gnomefreak> npster: for what player and what engine?
[05:48] <gnomefreak> ompaul: hes gone
[05:48] <oskude> CyberMad: is it this ? http://packages.ubuntu.com/cgi-bin/search_packages.pl?keywords=kannel&searchon=names&subword=1&version=dapper&release=all
[05:48] <Spec> don't search for me :-/
[05:48] <Spec> i can't code
[05:48] <CyberMad> oskude when i tried apt-get install libxml2  but it said the libxml2 alrady installed :(
 i would think you have everything but maybe they are faulty, try ripping one track from disc to your ubuntu then convert to mp3 then play it...if it doesnt work then you do have a pro with those engines and may need to re-install those
[05:48] <Psych0tiC> ok... now I need to download a live CD, I only have a CL version...
[05:48] <ompaul> gnomefreak, so obviously I type names I did not know that :)
[05:49] <Paradoxx> How do i go about installing the latest nvidia drivers?
[05:49] <don_jr> it says it's printing a test page but printer is doing nothing....
[05:49] <CyberMad> oskude wait.. i look on it
[05:49] <npster> gnomefreak: Ubuntu Dapper 6.06 LTS Rythmbox Music Player
[05:49] <SanketMedhi> Psych0tiC: which CD do you have?
[05:49] <Psych0tiC> Slax Frodo edition
[05:49] <gnomefreak> npster: i really suggest reading that link ubotu gave you depending on the file format and player you can install 30 or so codecs
[05:49] <npster> ok
[05:49] <NemesisUK> Paradoxx, >!nvidia
[05:49] <npster> I'll try
[05:49] <Psych0tiC> SanketMedhi, Slax Frodo Edition
[05:49] <Paradoxx> !nvidia
[05:49] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
it will save you transfering all those tracks over again!!
[05:50] <oskude> CyberMad: and what did i said before ? ... "apt-cache search libxml2 dev" would have given you (among others) "libxml2-dev - Development files for the GNOME XML library" thats what you would need, but please install from repo if its what youre trying to compile...
[05:50] <SanketMedhi> Psych0tiC: its ok, you can use that too
[05:50] <CyberMad> oskude yes, that's what i want ;) thnaks
[05:50] <Psych0tiC> but it is only a command line, so I can't go into irc
