[17:18] <arvind_khadri> windio00, yes and no ... as far as i can understand
[17:18] <n8tuserf> GratuitousEsq -> well perhaps it is an ethernet card, and not a wifi type of card
[17:18] <f_newton> you want the root path anonusing1 so you can find all the folders
[17:19] <f_newton> but if you have deleted your z  drive and your c drive it should be gone
[17:19] <anonusing1> f_newton, it says it can't execute the binary
[17:19] <n8tuserf> wiijii -> modprobe command looks in a specific dir i believe, lest you provide full path
[17:19]  * zelda hums the, "Memory Remains"
[17:19] <timahvo1> !wine
[17:19] <f_newton> what binary?
[17:19] <abc2xyz> n8tuserf>>> first priority is USB HDD. but whenever try to boot with the USB stick connected, the screen wont go past the acer logo and esc, f12, f2 nothing works
[17:19] <anonusing1> i will paste bin
[17:19] <wiijii> Hmm if I copy it, it still finds the version in updates
[17:19] <wiijii> I'll try an absolute path
[17:19] <zelda> incompatible hardware?
[17:19] <windio00> arvind_khadri, because i see that there are also "christian" and "muslim" editions of ubuntu that claim to be distros when all it is is a different background and different applications installed
[17:19] <GratuitousEsq> n8tuserf -> No, the ethernet adaptor is there and claimed, plus the product reads AE2413 802.1bg NIC
[17:20] <f_newton> wine... an unstable and seriously behind, but noble, attempt to make windows apps run in linux.... I mean really... why?
[17:20] <GratuitousEsq> sorry, 802.11bg
[17:20] <arvind_khadri> windio00, ya exactly...
[17:20] <n8tuserf> abc2xyz -> its probably not set to boot?  when you format a drive, it has a setting to be bootable?
[17:20] <f_newton> vmware yes.... whine  no
[17:20] <zelda> amen
[17:21] <wiijii> Hmmm if I use modprobe /path/to/module it says 'module not found'
[17:21] <f_newton> then it aint there
[17:21] <windio00> arvind_khadri, i looked to see if there was a jewish one too but i think it is a joke perhaps "jubuntu"?
[17:21] <n8tuserf> GratuitousEsq -> for one, dont have two nics connected to same subnet, lest you know how to make your route table correct, so have one at a time, ethernet or wireles, only one, not both at same time
[17:21] <wiijii> If I use insmod it says 'unknown symbol in module'
[17:21] <anonusing1> f_newton, i haven't been able to get the usability i need out of gimp. http://pastebin.com/m74c16f12
[17:21] <zelda> LOL! windiio009
[17:21] <arvind_khadri> windio00, no idea am sorry :)
[17:21] <Pantung> hey i have a problem, i cannopt setup gui on an ubuntuserver destop edition, i connect with putty
[17:21] <zelda> we windio00
[17:21] <zelda> er
[17:21] <zelda> thats hilarious
[17:22] <n8tuserf> wiijii -> yeah you have to man insmod and modprobe to get the correct syntax and where it looks for these modules
[17:22] <abc2xyz> n8tuserf>> can u exlain how can i check if its set to boot? sorry i m a newbie. i managed to boot from the same usb stick in a desktop machine
[17:22] <f_newton> anonusing1, well you can learn how to use gimp or you can dual boot and keep cs3 on your windows partition but wine is a lot better then it used to be but it still sux
[17:22] <wiijii> n8tuserf it is finding the modules, just not loading them
[17:22] <n8tuserf> abc2xyz -> same usbdisk is bootable on your desktop?
[17:22] <anonusing1> f_newton, okay thanks
[17:22] <Pantung> hey i have a problem, i cannopt setup gui on an ubuntuserver destop edition, i connect with putty
[17:22] <abc2xyz> n8tuserf>>>yes
[17:22] <zelda> windio00: that would be jewish.
[17:22] <n8tuserf> wiijii -> if i recall, ath9k is the recommended one, but you have to google for the excerpts of these,
[17:23] <anonusing1> do u guys think that gimp can ultimately do the same as photoshop?
[17:23] <GratuitousEsq> n8tuserf -> They're not on the same subnet, the ethernet isnt plugged in
[17:23] <anonusing1> as it stands today
[17:23] <XeKtRuM> how could I revert the changes that remote desktop did yesterday ?
[17:23] <n8tuserf> abc2xyz -> then your laptop is not reading that usbdongle correctly eh?
[17:23] <windio00> zelda, yes but i cant tell if it is also a serious project or a joke since people seriously created christian and muslim distros of ubuntu
[17:23] <zelda> anon: comparible, but doesnt beat:
[17:23] <arvind_khadri> anonusing1, it may not have all the tools that photoshop has, but ya it can
[17:23] <f_newton> anonusing1, try to understand that cs3 is very very cpu intensive and wine is as well... its just not a good application of your energy.   if you have a powerful enough machine run a vm w/ windows on it or something but wine will just give you heartache if you try to run something as complex as adobe photoshop on it
[17:23] <wiijii> n8tuserf I haven't been using ah9k until recently, it just got updated. it does not support packet injection and I need that feature for some work I'm doing
[17:23] <abc2xyz> n8tuserf>>exactly
[17:23] <n8tuserf> GratuitousEsq -> okay, make sure the correct driver is loaded
[17:24] <pjsturgeon> Anyone know of a command line script / bash script / application that will automatically sort TV into show -> season -> episode number?
[17:24] <ScottG489> I have been having problems connecting to one of the repositories for a few days now: " Failed to fetch http://ddebs.ubuntu.com/dists/intrepid-security/Release"
[17:24] <windio00> zelda, i think it is for real
[17:24] <zelda> windio00: IDK, havent thought about that.. but that is hilarious.
[17:24] <ScottG489> I noticed someone else had that problem yesterday too
[17:24] <anonusing1> f_newton, will i can't even if i wanted to. i've run out of ideas on how ot get it to work...
[17:24] <gnutron> wiijii: to load a module at boot time insert it in /etc/modules file.
[17:24] <anonusing1> well*
[17:24] <n8tuserf> abc2xyz -> i cant do anything if your laptop does not read it .. look in the bios - there maybe settings you can fiddle with?
[17:24] <arvind_khadri> ScottG489, which repo is that
[17:24] <wiijii> gnutron I don't want to load it at boot, I just want to load it.
[17:24] <ftrdtd> hi anyone here have ebooks about kubuntu
[17:25] <n3rd4i> anyone here can aswer me one question ?
[17:25] <wiijii> gnutron I'm getting an unknown symbol error
[17:25] <f_newton> anonusing1, thats not your fault... remember to put your photoshop on its own partition in windows....
[17:25] <zelda> windio00: that made my day man.
[17:25] <anonusing1> i've been using gimp for some time but, just find that it lacks a lot of support as far tutorials and such...
[17:25] <abc2xyz> n8tuserf>>> thats wht i m trying now. wonder if its something specific to acer aspire one machine
[17:25] <anonusing1> ya, i lost my serial key for windows >_<
[17:25] <gnutron> wiijii: a modprode module-name should work, lsmod to list the loaded ones
[17:25] <n8tuserf> wiijii -> not all wifi drivers support all the features, so yeah you have to go hunting for drivers that meets your needs
[17:25] <zelda> Anon: you will find that a lot with some linux programs.
[17:25] <windio00> zelda, you might want to check it out https://launchpad.net/jubuntu
[17:25] <f_newton> anonusing1, there are gimp support rooms and if you visit gimp site you will find a lot of tutorials etc plus you can ask other users
[17:25] <anonusing1> i actually threw it away when i took apart my case >_<
[17:25] <wiijii> gnutron No, that's not what the problem is
[17:26] <f_newton> anonusing1, honestly though I much prefer adobe
[17:26] <wiijii> n8tuserf This is the correct driver, hence me trying to get it to work
[17:26] <anonusing1> lol
[17:26] <n8tuserf> abc2xyz -> i dont know, could be?
[17:26] <GratuitousEsq> n8tuserf -> Well, I think I tried both Atheros drivers, but it didnt really fix my problem
[17:26] <zelda> windio00: yeah I'll google it
[17:26] <pranith> where do I get info about the ubuntu backport testers??
[17:26] <f_newton> anonusing1, I use audition 3
[17:26] <anonusing1> right
[17:26] <pranith> how do I talk to someone on that team?
[17:26] <n3rd4i> guys anyone can hear me here?
[17:26] <ScottG489> arvind_khadri: I'm not sure how to know that. But if I do "sudo apt-get update it hits a bunch of http's like usuall then ends with this: "W: Failed to fetch http://ddebs.ubuntu.com/dists/intrepid-security/Release  Unable to find expected entry  multivers/binary-amd64/Packages in Meta-index file (malformed Release file?)E: Some index files failed to download, they have been ignored, or old ones used instead."
[17:26] <n3rd4i> lol
[17:26] <zelda> n3rd4i: no, we can read you though
[17:26] <n8tuserf> wiijii -> i forget now, what is your chip? is its same as GratuitousEsq ? you guys have same chip?
[17:26] <zelda> :)
[17:27] <n3rd4i> i need some mini help
[17:27] <anonusing1> f_newton, i have just been using the trail versions but, also used to use it growing up.. like 7 years ago
[17:27] <GratuitousEsq> n8tuserf -> The problem fixed when I changed drivers then changed back, but on restart it didnt work again.
[17:27] <n3rd4i> how can i make a live CD with my settings
[17:27] <anonusing1> trail versions lately*
[17:27] <f_newton> maybe one day adobe will produce a linux equivalent
[17:27] <n3rd4i> and my applications?
[17:27] <n8tuserf> GratuitousEsq -> not getting loaded at boot?
[17:27] <n3rd4i> i mean
[17:27] <wiijii> n8tuserf I have no idea. The module I need is ath5k, definitely. It worked previously
[17:27] <anonusing1> THANKS everyone!
[17:27] <strk> php/sqlite problem: cli seems to be loading the sqlite module, apache2 not
[17:27] <n3rd4i> i wanna ripp the included ones and get myself others
[17:27] <wiijii> It's an atheros chipset of some sort
[17:27] <f_newton> anonusing1, I use it in a professional capacity and in conjunction with pro tools and cubase it works wonders
[17:27] <Pantung> hey witch program should i use to connect to a remote server if i want to se gui?
[17:27] <n3rd4i> that i want
[17:27] <zelda> n3re4i: use an imagining program
[17:27] <strk> phpinfo() from webpage shows conf.d/sqlite.ini (and pdo_sqlite.ini) isn't loaded
[17:28] <n3rd4i> anyidea?
[17:28] <zelda> sorry. :(
[17:28] <abc2xyz> n8tuserf>>>usbcore.autosuspend =1....i get this msg everytime the machine starts. do u think this could be the problem?
[17:28] <arvind_khadri> ScottG489, becuase the line isnt correct it should be "deb http://.......... "
[17:28] <mereo> *sigh*, time to fill out the taxes in Canada... any good Linux tax softwares?
[17:28] <strk> Ubuntu 8.10 (sqlite php module load failure)
[17:28] <n8tuserf> abc2xyz -> possibly  is that setting in the bios?
[17:28] <GratuitousEsq> n8tuserf -> I'm not sure, in System>Administration>Hardware Drivers, it says that its active, but it still doesnt work, and deactivating it and reactivating it doesnt fix it.
[17:28] <anonusing1> f_newton, yes, it has a lot of advantages that i just haven't found in gimp
[17:28] <Pantung> hey witch program should i use to connect to a remote server if i want to se gui?
[17:28] <RussM> Pantung, From what platform, to what platform, over what speed link?
[17:29] <jtaji> Pantung: applications > internet > terminal server client for windows, and > remote desktop viewer for Ubuntu/Linux/any VNC server
[17:29] <abc2xyz> n8tuserf>>>no i think its related to kernel
[17:29] <ScottG489> arvind_khadri: How do I edit the file to correct that?
[17:29] <ScottG489> arvind_khadri: Or rather, WHAT file do I correct?
[17:29] <n8tuserf> abc2xyz -> i dont know then..sorry
[17:29] <anonusing1> f_newton, gimp works well for something but, ya i am trying to use it professionally now. well, will just have to find a way to make do
[17:29] <f_newton> anonusing1, no gimp has what you need but its a lot harder to learn.  Adobe has spent millions making it work right where gimp is the generous efforts of very hard working volunteers
[17:29] <arvind_khadri> ScottG489, gksu gedit /etc/apt/sources.list
[17:29] <anonusing1> THANKS again
[17:29] <n8tuserf> GratuitousEsq -> did you ever post the requested   /etc/network/interfaces file for me to see?
[17:29] <zelda> anon: hence the reason there isnt a good manual
[17:29] <Pantung> its from ubuntu to ubuntu RussM jtaji
[17:29] <anonusing1> f_newton, well, i can do harder if it will work well
[17:29] <azuke> hey guys. I'm using 8.10 desktop. I'm getting empty core dump files when running an app of mine. What do I do so that dump file isn't empty?
[17:30] <f_newton> it will anonusing1 but you are definitely going to have to work at it
[17:30] <GratuitousEsq> n8tuserf -> The what? I dont remember you asking me to do that. I'll do it now though
[17:30] <gnutron> azuke: man gdb
[17:30] <anonusing1> ya, i definitely appreciate the open source nature of gimp
[17:30] <RussM> Pantung, I use VNC. But if you're on a LAN, you could just use X, changing your DISPLAY variable. That's not as good when on a slow link, though.
[17:31] <anonusing1> but get started then :)
[17:31] <Pantung> Russ i'm not on lan its a server in holland and i'm den denmark :)
[17:31] <anonusing1> thanks again
[17:31] <J2daosh> n8tuserf: i cant get it to copy to my flash drive anymore
[17:31] <abc2xyz> can anyone suggest me which brand laptop works best with ubuntu?
[17:31] <abc2xyz> n8tuserf
[17:31] <GratuitousEsq> n8tuserf -> this is all it shows "auto lo iface lo inet loopback"
[17:31] <zelda> its not the brand, its the hardware man.
[17:32] <ScottG489> arvind_khadri: So I basically should just change all the "ddebs" to "deb" ?
[17:32] <Pantung> RussM, then how do i install vnc on the server?
[17:32] <zelda> abc > that was at you
[17:32] <codeshah> hey guys, I am trying to connect to my university network using Ubuntu, and it is LEAP certificate authentication or something. I found a tutorial online that says to clikc on network manager and say "connect to other wireless network" but I don't see this option
[17:32] <test34> Which firewall is the Ubuntu standard ?
[17:32] <azuke> gnutron: how is this related to gdb? the core file being created is 0kb. gdb can't read the file
[17:32] <zelda> abc2xyz: its not the brand, its really if the hardware is compatible
[17:33] <arvind_khadri> ScottG489, ya and the line is generally security.ubuntu.com for security releases... your whole line is malformed i gues

[17:33] <islan> in normal graphical settings, is compiz off?
[17:33] <test34> abc2xyz, any laptop that comes pre-installed with linux should work fine with ubuntu
[17:34] <abc2xyz> zelda >> most of the laptops come with their own config. can u suggest any which is good to run ubuntu
[17:34] <azuke> gnutron: I did. I've edited limits.conf and ran ulimit -c ulimited. still not working
[17:34] <J2daosh> n8tuserf: http://pastebin.com/mdaa0cb8
[17:34] <zelda> test34: who pre-installs linux?

[17:34] <abc2xyz> test34>> as far as i know only dell does it
[17:34] <zelda> p.o.s's
[17:34] <gnutron> azuke: what causes the core dump, any idea?
[17:34] <test34> http://tuxmobil.org/reseller.html
[17:34] <azuke> my app has a segmentation fault
[17:35] <azuke> gnutron:  my app has a segmentation fault
[17:35] <ScottG489> arvind_khadri: Ok so these are the bad lines, what do I change them to? http://pastebin.com/d3fe1a0b4
[17:36] <zelda> overshard: you going to check your pants?
[17:36] <zelda> :)
[17:36] <gnutron> azuke: there seems to be alot of that happening however i rarely if ever get a seg fault. it is likely the app. google is the best bet.
[17:36] <arvind_khadri> ScottG489, had you copied them from somewhere?
[17:36] <J2daosh> i cant do ifdown on my wlan because its not a recognized interface
[17:37] <tea_ovedose> Hi, can someone please help me set up a iptable ?
[17:37] <ScottG489> arvind_khadri: No, i have not edited my source.list file directly in a long tiem
[17:37] <zelda> !iptable
[17:37] <gnutron> ScottG489: have you tried setting synaptic to use a better repo, it will re-write the sources.list for you.
[17:37] <tea_ovedose> !iptables
[17:38] <arvind_khadri> ScottG489, hmmm then how come these lines? can you please paste the whole file?
[17:38] <zelda> wth? Jubuntu?
[17:38] <ScottG489> arvind_khadri: Wait a sec, im seeing those lines in my third-party software tab in Software Source
[17:38] <arvind_khadri> ScottG489, ok
[17:38] <Orgazmo> I'm trying to recompile my wireless driver to enable promiscuous mode and i get /orinoco-0.15/Kbuild:34: *** Wireless extensions are not enabled.  Stop.

[17:38] <Orgazmo>  Any ideas?
[17:38] <n8tuserf> J2daosh -> it is not associated to your AP
[17:39] <ScottG489> arvind_khadri: Hm, i cant remember what i added them for
[17:39] <arvind_khadri> ScottG489, comment them out :)
[17:39] <gnutron> tea_ovedose: iptables via cli isn't the easiest way, try a front-end like firestarter, or a simple one such as lokkit.
[17:39] <ScottG489> arvind_khadri: ok yea
[17:39] <n8tuserf> GratuitousEsq -> you need to modify that interfaces file..  add    iface wlan0 inet dhcp;  auto dhcp    two lines here okay?
[17:40] <XeKtRuM> ns identify chksumsu
[17:40] <gnutron> ScottG489: ubuntu doc pages on the web have proper source file examples.
[17:40] <XeKtRuM> damn!
[17:40] <XeKtRuM> xD
[17:40] <rocko> is burnfree the same thing as burnproof?
[17:40] <tea_ovedose> gnutron: thx... yeah, I've been strucggling with the iptable...
[17:41] <ScottG489> gnutron: Well I must have added them in to allow a third party update. I cant remember what it was for though
[17:41] <ScottG489> works good now
[17:41] <GratuitousEsq> n8tuserf -> Ok, will do
[17:41] <alexis> hey
[17:41] <J2daosh> n8tuserf: ..... yeah... the wireless is disabled remember...
[17:41] <gnutron> ScottG489: just comment out the ddebs ones for starters.
[17:41] <abc2xyz> any idea where i can ask question specific to acer aspire one?:-S
[17:41] <alexis> im french ^^

[17:42] <abc2xyz> thanks dudus
[17:42] <Huufarted> Davedan: search file names or file contents?
[17:42] <n8tuserf> J2daosh ->  you need to modify that interfaces file..  add    iface wlan0 inet dhcp;  auto dhcp    two lines here okay?
[17:42] <J2daosh> abc2xyz: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AspireOne
[17:42] <XeKtRuM> Izinucs, i got the soluttion

[17:43] <gnutron> Davedan: fgrep, grep, check out a tutorial.
[17:43] <n8tuserf> J2daosh -> and  GratuitousEsq you seem to have both same issues, so listen up to what i tell the other, okay?
[17:43] <Huufarted> Davedan: cd /directory_name      then:  grep "search_string" file_mask*
[17:44] <dudus> what's the name of the ubuntu installer
[17:44] <Davedan>  Huufarted: what is file_mask* ?
[17:44] <dudus> ?
[17:44] <Huufarted> just use *
[17:44] <Davedan>  Huufarted: do I need to tell it to be recursive?
[17:44] <Serva> Hi. Does Rational Clearcase runs on Ubuntu also?
[17:44] <mikebeecham> hi guys...I've downloaded a gtk theme, and now the menubar does not seem to 'fit' correctly onto it.  I've tried changing the font size and the height of the panel, but nothing makes the menubar fits....can anyone else suggest anyting?
[17:44] <Huufarted> if you want recursive, then add -R as the first argument...
[17:44] <arvind_khadri> dudus, ubiquity i guess
[17:44] <Huufarted> I think.
[17:44] <wolter> what does "device 5-1 failed to restore" during waking up mean?
[17:44] <abc2xyz> dudus who r u talking to?

[17:45] <arvind_khadri> dudus, :)
[17:45] <gnutron> gletob: use scp, its secure copy using the ssh protocol.
[17:45] <dudus> I wasn't talking to anyone specifically.... just asked a question
[17:46] <Serva> Rational Clearcase on Ubuntu ... anyone?

[17:47] <chills> hey guys is there any graphical vpn client ?
[17:47] <mr_boo> Huufarted: i do have problems
[17:47] <Huufarted> mr_boo, such as?
[17:47] <chills> i installed vpnc its asking me for a ipsec secret, and the profile that the university vpn gave me has no secret , iam not even sure what it is
[17:48] <mr_boo> Huufarted: can't play any dvds with any app except vlc and on vlc the menu stays even when playing movie
[17:48] <mib_m0c36w9v> I am looking for help installing intrepid, can anyone assist me?
[17:48] <qs> hi, how can i route output from pulseaudio to a file?
[17:48] <Davedan>  Huufarted: thanks
[17:48] <Huufarted> mr_boo if you are seeing the DVD at all, then it is most likely not a hardware issue
[17:49] <mikebeecham> hi guys...I've downloaded a gtk theme, and now the menubar does not seem to 'fit' correctly onto it.  I've tried changing the font size and the height of the panel, but nothing makes the menubar fits....can anyone else suggest anyting?
[17:49] <guilhermeblanco> hi guys... yesterday I spend a lot of time trying to get rid of svn to work with HTTPS. After some time, I found that libneon is buggy. I had to manually install svn 1.4.6 +libneon 0.25.5 in order to work. Who and where should I notify this issue?
[17:49] <mr_boo> Huufarted: seems like some people have /dev/dvd rather than /dev/cdrom
[17:49] <Huufarted> mr_boo, you didn't say /dev/cdrom.  you said cd0
[17:49] <Huufarted> mr_boo, correction you said scd0
[17:50] <mr_boo> Huufarted: true
[17:50] <_VIM_> !bugs | guilhermeblanco
[17:51] <guilhermeblanco> _VIM_: thanks
[17:51] <tv7497> my sound is broken ! i have even reported a bug regarding this but still of no use https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pulseaudio/+bug/329153  any idea whats wrong guys
[17:51] <n8tuserf> J2daosh -> corrected yet? am leaving very soon
[17:52] <J2daosh> nope
[17:53] <mib_m0c36w9v> When I try to install Intrepid on an MA78GM-S2H motherboard it reboots after the splash screen.  Is there anyone that can assist me in troubleshooting this install?
[17:53] <J2daosh> n8tuserf: nope, adding the 2 lines made it worse
[17:53] <n8tuserf> J2daosh -> have you added the two lines?
[17:53] <J2daosh> n8tuserf: now it tells me that my wireless is unmanaged and i cant get any signal or browse any networks
[17:53] <n8tuserf> J2daosh -> post the interfaces after you have added
[17:54] <KomiaPoika> how can i mount read/write a ntfs hard drive?
[17:54] <J2daosh> auto lo;iface lo inet loopback;iface wlan0 inet dhcp;auto dhcp
[17:54] <J2daosh> ; = \n
[17:54] <clairvoyant> KomiPoika: yes you can
[17:54] <n8tuserf> J2daosh -> sudo ifdown wlan0; sudo ifup wlan0
[17:55] <gustaveh> oi
[17:55] <_VIM_> clairvoyant: i think he asked HOW ;)
[17:55] <n8tuserf> J2daosh -> oops forgot you have to add  this line   wireless-essid xxxxx    xxxxx as your AP essid
[17:55] <vuroth> Anyone have an idea why, during upgrade from heron to ibex, I would fail on kernel panic: no root (or something like that), and ibex liveCd would see my root partition no problem but INSTALL only offers me to reformat entire HD, NOT SHOWING existing partitions (GPartEd does not show existing partitions either ,but Vista does)
[17:55] <J2daosh> network is down, resource temporarily unavailable
[17:56] <J2daosh> n8tuserf: add to what file?
[17:56] <n8tuserf> J2daosh -> interfaces
[17:56] <n8tuserf> in between iface wlan0... and auto wlan0
[17:56] <clairvoyant> KomiPoika: the command is "sudo mount -t ntfs /dev/sdax /where/you/want"
[17:56] <J2daosh> you mean auto dhcp?
[17:57] <NigelS> I thought ntfs-3g was now the default?
[17:57] <J2daosh> n8tuserf: you mean between iface wlan0 and auto dhcp?
[17:57] <n8tuserf> J2daosh -> no its not auto dhcp   its auto wlan0
[17:57] <n8tuserf> my typo earlier,
	[#ubuntu] J2daosh -> you need to modify that interfaces file.. add iface wlan0 inet dhcp; auto dhcp two lines here okay?
[17:57] <n8tuserf> my typo earlier,
[17:58] <J2daosh> ok, ill change to auto wlan0
[17:58] <n8tuserf> ok
[17:58] <strange> hey guys
[17:58] <strange> error while loading shared libraries: libtcl8.4.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
[17:58] <J2daosh> n8tuserf: do the ifdown and up or /etc/init.d/networking restart?
[17:58] <strange> i have tcl8.4 and tcl8.4 dev installed
[17:58] <strange> anyone knows which package im lacking?
[17:58] <ortsvorsteher> !enter | strange
[17:59] <n8tuserf> J2daosh -> sudo ifdown wlan0;  sudo ifup wlan0
[17:59] <J2daosh> n8tuserf: unknown harware address error and then back to the resource unavailable/network is down errors
[17:59] <J2daosh> n8tuserf: the second set of xxxx in your wireless-essid line, is that where the wep password goes?
[18:00] <chester_m> anyone knows how make itunes working normally on Linux by wine (it's very slow)?
[18:00] <n8tuserf> J2daosh -> repost your current result of   sudo lshw -C network   again
[18:00] <J2daosh> yeah
[18:00] <fearful> chester_m: It will never run normally since wine is only an emulator.
[18:00] <Huufarted> chester_m, make sure iTunes isn't 'Determining Gapless Playback'
[18:00] <skylite> hello all :)
[18:00] <n8tuserf> J2daosh -> dont mess with encrypted ones for now, make it in the clear first before going encrypted
[18:00] <mikewu> strange: it should be in tcl8.4, try removing it and reinstalling
[18:00] <Huufarted> fearful, Wine is NOT an emulator
[18:00] <Ferchault> I've got problems with my WLAN. According to the webinterface of the router and the output of iwconfig the connection is established. But I can't send any packets to any computer in my LAN. Any ideas what's going wrong? (details at http://pastebin.com/m6db60d3b)
[18:01] <fearful> Huufarted: Its not? I coulda sworn it was
[18:01] <n8tuserf> Ferchault -> route table okay?
[18:01] <chester_m> Huufarted, it is, but i cancel that and it works slow at the same
[18:01] <Huufarted> fearful, you coulda sworn wrong.  It does not emulate anything.  It replaces the standard Windows APIs  with open source ones.  It is a windows replacement, it doesn't emulate anything.
[18:01] <Ferchault> n8tuserf: I think so (route -n is shown at http://pastebin.com/m6db60d3b)
[18:02] <n8tuserf> Ferchault -> you cant ping yourself?
[18:02] <J2daosh> n8tuserf: http://pastebin.com/m329eb9b7
[18:02] <Huufarted> feaful, if anything it can be called a wrapper
[18:02] <Huufarted> fearful, sorry I mistyped your name.
[18:02] <brel> so, I know people have had issues w/ Intrepid's desktop resolution settings. I know that the monitor+GPU combo that I have is capable of 1600x1200(been there in Windows) however, in 8.10 i am stuck with 640x480. I've tried editing /etc/X11/xorg.conf but to no avail. any suggestions?
[18:02] <Ferchault> n8tuserf: no, I can ping myself
[18:03] <dakira> hi.. my roomie just rebooted his Ubuntu box and without any changes (at least as far as I can see) the resolution changed from 1280x1024 to 1024x768. With no way to get back the old resolution. His xorg.conf is pretty much empty (since x.org should get everything automatically).
[18:03] <Orgazmo> can someone hold my hand through a driver recompile?
[18:03] <n8tuserf> J2daosh -> does  lsmod |grep ath   shows your ath5k ?
[18:03] <J2daosh> n8tuserf: ok
[18:03] <fearful> Huufarted, I see
[18:03] <dakira> The funny thing is, everything worked perfectly up until an hour ago
[18:03] <n8tuserf> Ferchault -> can you ping localhost?
[18:04] <J2daosh> n8tuserf: yes
[18:04] <Ferchault> n8tuserf: yes
[18:04] <Huufarted> fearful, this is offtopic, so this is the last I'll talk about it here in #ubuntu, but for example a program will attempt to write to C:\program files\program_dir and Wine will grab that call and instead write it to /home/user/.programdir/filesettings.cfg
[18:04] <n8tuserf> Ferchault -> id shutdown, and reseat your pci card or wireless card
[18:05] <pjsturgeon> anyone found a good guide for transmissioncli setup?
[18:05] <Ferchault> n8tuserf: that's not an option - it's a notebook
[18:05] <fearful> Huufarted, thats good to know, I thought it worked differently.
[18:05] <n8tuserf> J2daosh -> it seems your ath5k is not working well with your chip, i dont know what to tell you other than seen another driver
[18:05] <J2daosh> n8tuserf: im getting hardware 801 errors, im gonna google them and see what i come up with
[18:05] <J2daosh> thanks for tying to help out
[18:05] <Huufarted> fearful, I'd consider installing it just to toy with it so you get to understand it.  It's a pretty cool ap.
[18:05] <n8tuserf> Ferchault -> you seemed to have either bad nic card, as you can not ping your self
[18:05] <Huufarted> app*
[18:06] <n8tuserf> Ferchault -> how did you set these ip addresses?
[18:06] <Ferchault> n8tuserf: but I can ping myself...
[18:06] <Ferchault> n8tuserf: I used NetworkManager
[18:06] <n8tuserf> Ferchault -> answer my question, how did you set these?
[18:07] <jeff-01> Hi All, I am looking for the 3D Desktop for Ubuntu 8.04. Could you please tell me what to install/configure for this to work ?
[18:07] <GratuitousEsq> n8tuserf -> Uh, I did that and it seemed to just bugger the Netgear dongle I'm using instead
[18:07] <Ferchault> n8tuserf: I used NetworkManager - shall I give iwconfig a try?
[18:07] <fearful> Huufarted, I do have it installed, but I haven't really ever needed the use of it, I found everything better with Ubuntu :p
[18:07] <jeff-01> Actually it looks like compiz is already installed and working.
[18:07] <ech0s7> hi
[18:07] <n8tuserf> GratuitousEsq -> i made a typo too, instead of  auto dhcp, it should have been  auto wlan0
[18:07] <Lasivian> compiz screws up my windows when I try to load it, how can I reinstall it?
[18:07] <Huufarted> fearful, that's very true, as have I.  touche, good sir.  Touche.
[18:07] <ech0s7> anyone have tried the new catalyst 9.2 ?
[18:07] <n8tuserf> Ferchault -> answer my question, how did you set these?
[18:07] <nibbler> jeff-01: just activate it: system->preferences->appearence, 3rd tab
[18:07] <jeff-01> thx ;)
[18:07] <dakira> can anyone help me with my screen resolution problem?
[18:08] <steve``> anyone know why i'd lose a color (yellow) in the console (ctrl-alt-f[1-6]) ?  ansi codes can change all other colours except that one... it's there when i boot into single-user mode, but not when i full boot... looks like i lose it when X starts up and i switch back to tty
[18:08] <n8tuserf> Ferchault -> how did your nic get its ip address?  post your /etc/network/interfaces file
[18:08] <Ferchault> n8tuserf: there's an icon next to the clock...NetworkManager...with a list of networks -> clicked -> typed WPA-PW
[18:09] <n8tuserf> Ferchault -> forget about using encrypted .. can you try without the encryption first?
[18:09] <Ferchault> n8tuserf: yes - moment please
[18:09] <n8tuserf> Ferchault -> you have to disable both in your client(host) and the AP  okay?
[18:10] <frankS2> Hi guys, I installed "kubuntu" and i want "ubuntu" is it possible to do that with dist-upgrade or do i have to format and reinstall?
[18:10] <GratuitousEsq> n8tuserf -> Ah, ok. I'll give it a go
[18:10] <Huufarted> frankS2: just install  Gnome.  That's the only difference as far as I know
[18:10] <n8tuserf> GratuitousEsq -> you have to hurry up, am leaving very soon
[18:10] <mastacontrola> need some help if anyone is able to
[18:11] <n8tuserf> or else those people am having convo have to wait later...
[18:11] <mastacontrola> please
[18:11] <Myrtti> !anyone | mastacontrola
[18:11] <Huufarted> !ask | mastacontrola
[18:11]  * n8tuserf_afk leaving for now.. be back soonest
[18:12] <milos_> is it posible to have file and directory with same name in one directory and how?
[18:12] <Myrtti> ubottu: tell n8tuserf_afk about away
[18:12] <mastacontrola> I used the dd command to copy data from a 40 gb XP based system to a 250gb hard drive but only copied the NTFS partition after formatting the partition on the new drive.
[18:12] <jeff-01> Is 3D desktop compiz "Fusion" ?
[18:13] <jeff-01> Is it installed by default or needed in addition ?
[18:13] <fosco_> jeff-01: yes
[18:13] <mastacontrola> now Windows boots.  That is good, however it cannot access the full 250gb of the hard drive even though diskmgmt.msc sees it
[18:13] <mastacontrola> it still reads it as the old 40 gb
[18:13] <Huufarted> mastacontrola, that is offtopic. I am sending you a message to tell you how to fix this
[18:13] <steve``> mastacontrola, that's because dd copies EVERYTHING (including the part that says how big the drive is)
[18:13] <madmike> #conky
[18:13] <jeff-01> thx Fosco. Is Compiz Fusion an add on or it is already in the default ?
[18:13] <madmike> whoops
[18:13] <mikebeecham> hi guys...does anyone have a possible answer to this: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1076500
[18:13] <xSkApOnEx> hey guys I have a Toshiba Satellite L305-S5884 and my DVD-RW drive has stopped recognizing cd's. It reads and burns DVD's just fine, but I have been unable to get it to recognize cd's. I have searched the forums along with google and have been unlucky to find a solution. Do you think my drive might have crapped out on me? If so, a warranty would cover that right? It's a brand new lappy and this shouldn't happen.
[18:14] <usser> mastacontrola, you have to resize the partition after you dd it
[18:14] <zelda> what does that have to do with ubuntu xskaponex
[18:14] <zelda> ?
[18:14] <GratuitousEsq_> n8tuserf -> Huh, that seemed to work, thanks.
[18:14] <fosco_> jeff-01: compiz is installed when you activate desktop effects, not enabled by default
[18:15] <zelda> xSskApOnEx: I think you should call Toshiba.
[18:15] <jeff-01> I don't find the 3D ?
[18:15] <usser> jeff-01, starting with hardy compiz is installed by default and enabled by default if your card supports it
[18:15] <jeff-01> fusion also ?
[18:16] <shang> md
[18:16] <shang> xiaogoushi

[18:16] <shang> fc
[18:17] <ech0s7> anyone have tried the new catalyst 9.2 ?
[18:17] <xSkApOnEx> so it wouldn't have anything to do with drivers failing in ubuntu? i'm just asking. thanks for the "help"
[18:18] <madmike> anyone know why when I logon, conky opens in it's own window and covers whatever toolbars and panels happen to be under it?  I switched own_window to "no" in the config, and then it doesn't load at all at logon.  I have to open it manually to get it to work right
[18:18] <Richaee> madmike: wat command are u autostarting conky with?
[18:19] <dr_Willis> madmike,  conky has a lot of tweaks and things that may be needed depending on the window manager. check the conky homepage and the faq. they mention the proper settings for gnome and kde.
[18:19] <racecar56> hi, i'm thinking about switching to 8.04 LTS from 8.10 because i'm dying to have KDE3, and i have it on ibex too but its buggy, so i'm switching
[18:20] <madmike> Richaee:  in the sessions thing I added "conky" to startup
[18:20] <racecar56> but the thing is... will filezilla latest come to hardy ever?
[18:20] <_VIM_> filezilla has been on hardy
[18:20] <racecar56> i mean v3.2.1
[18:20] <racecar56> like on intrepid
[18:20] <Orgazmo> I've just fixed what I think was a problem in /usr/src/linux/driver/blabla/device.c  In slackware, i'd just recompile the kernel, but their website is telling me not to. How do i get this driver recompiled and used?
[18:20] <alanbshepard70> When I boot with "quiet splash" enabled my system spits an error the quickly vanishes and halts, if I remove "quiet splash" the system boots into Ubuntu just fine. How can I determine what's causing the issue?
[18:20] <Richaee> madmike: Wel probably wont make anydiffernce but try it wit /usr/bin/conky its wat i hav and mine works perfectly
[18:20] <madmike> dr_Willis: if it means anything, I'm still using whatever came on the live cd
[18:20] <racecar56> i noticed getdeb.net has 3.1.6 for hardy and latest (3.2.1) for intrepid
[18:21] <_VIM_> racecar56: hmmm have you tried !Backports or PPA's?
[18:21] <pmdrev> hello all!
[18:21] <madmike> alright thanks Richaee
[18:21] <racecar56> ok... ill look into that in a bit
[18:21] <dr_Willis> madmike,  then you are usiong the default conky config proberly is not using the proper settings..  the homepage has tons of config tips and info
[18:21] <IndyGunFreak> racecar56: what are you trying to installt hat youd need getdeb.net?.. most of that stuff is in the repos.
[18:21] <racecar56> ill be offline for quite a while so bye
[18:21] <racecar56> ill come back with hardy :>
[18:21] <racecar56> (i dont like upgrading)
[18:21] <Spirit> \o
[18:22] <madmike> alright, thanks also dr_willis
[18:22] <madmike> If I don't come back, then I fixed it :)
[18:23] <shavin> can i install and run cisco vpn client with wine on ubuntu?
[18:23] <Rapscallion> Is there a way to enable/disable my usb/s-video/vga ports in Ibex?
[18:24] <arvind_khadri> !appdb > shavin
[18:24] <Arceus_> hello, can someone tell me how to clone my output to my TV. iam using my VGA port, its a laptop
[18:24] <Richaee> shavin: did u check appdb
[18:24] <kristian1> If I go to System - Administration - Hardware Drivers, it does a search for appropriate drivers. It comes up with a list, is this all the drivers I need to make Ubuntu 100% compatable with my system or might it be missing some of the drivers I need to make it compatable? Thanks! :)
[18:25] <pjsturgeon> "locate .config | grep transmission" anyone?
[18:26] <geirha> shavin: There's a cisco compatible vpn client in the repositories ...
[18:26] <shavin> geirha: i am struggling with the linux vpn client but the rouble is i am no expert and i am getting lost :-)
[18:27] <geirha> !info network-manager-vpnc | shavin
[18:27] <shavin> I was thinking maybe i should just install the windows version on wine and imitate the steps form windows. i have a pdf guide for that
[18:28] <geirha> shavin: Installing that package should allow you to set up vpn connection from network-manager
[18:29] <shavin> i have installed it already but the problem is of configuration. I dont have enough knowledge. But i shall try a bit further again. I ll ask for help again later. thank you guys.
[18:29] <usser> shavin, wine likely wouldnt work, i dont think its capable of emulating windows network stack, bridging, vpn
[18:29] <Guest89879> install not properly responding to update, err msg: Failed to fetch Ubuntu 8.10, use apt-cdrom, and when I do, it says command 'add' is Command Not Found, and many times, I receive [13 Permission Denied], and similar denials ad infinitum all over my programs...
[18:30] <Ibrish> hi
[18:30] <btl> anybody have experience using elisa on ubuntu 8.10 (intrepid)? it's so slow it's absolutely unusable. i don't have compiz installed.
[18:30] <_VIM_> Hypothetical question: If you encrypt the /home folder... and something goes wrong, can mount it using a LiveCD/Rescue CD? And work with it like an unencrypted partition?
[18:31] <pete_uk> yeah shavin, wine and the Cisco deterministic network driver won't work
[18:31] <pete_uk> have you thought about using a windows Virtual machine?
[18:31] <Decepticon> jrib i got free | awk '/^-/{used=$3} /^Mem/{total=$2} END{printf "%d%%\n",used*100/total}'
[18:31] <shavin> hm. that means i shall have to learn the vpn stuff more and make it work
[18:32] <Decepticon> jrib but this hovers around 25% all the time, is that true
[18:32] <usser> _VIM_, you'd have to jump through some hoops with livecd, ie getting your public key on a usb stick and decrypting partition, it'll be scrambled if you try to mount it as is
[18:32] <shavin> pete_uk: windows virtual machine? no. is that different from wine?
[18:32] <hendrixski> HELP!  all my password management is complete fubar!
[18:32] <hendrixski> I had deleted a password from the keyring to try to have something prompt me for it again
[18:32] <_VIM_> usser: Ah ok thanks, that's what I was thinking. But wasn't positive. :)
[18:32] <pete_uk> yeah, using VirtualBox or VMware Server, you'd have a copy of windows running ontop of your linux install
[18:32] <Decepticon> what can i use to take up a lot of ram, on cli
[18:32] <hendrixski> and now when I get prompted for a password it never lets me in
[18:33] <usser> Decepticon, fork bomb
[18:33] <Decepticon> usser those arent exitable from are they?
[18:33] <danl> I have a stupid question about links, I made a symbolic link from my home directory to /var/www, but it didn't work the way I expected, I can't navigate into the folder when I ftp in from remote
[18:33] <danl> what would be a better solution?
[18:33] <shavin> okay thanks i shall explore that
[18:33] <Decepticon> usser is it possible to ctrl-c safely out of a fork bomb
[18:33] <_VIM_> Decepticon: Firefox with like 100 tabs open would do the trick too
[18:33] <Decepticon> _VIM_ maybe, but i dont have a gui
[18:34] <bman_> virtual dirs in your ftpd config danl
[18:34] <_VIM_> doh
[18:34] <usser> Decepticon, no but you can kill it, if you set appropriate limits on number of processes user is allowed to run
[18:34] <pete_uk> VirtualBox may be an easy first step for you
[18:34] <danl> bman_: why didn't I think of that
[18:34] <danl> thanks
[18:34] <Decepticon> usser i dont want to have to restart my machine...
[18:34]  * bman_ nods
[18:35] <hendrixski> oh, nevermind,  I got it
[18:35] <usser> Decepticon, you wont have to just adjust /etc/security/limits to allow say 500 processes, that should take up a chunk of ram but shouldnt lock computer completely
[18:35] <hendrixski> wheh, that was a close one... turns out easy to fix
[18:35] <hendrixski> cheers
[18:35] <Decepticon> usser is there a better way to temporarily eat ram
[18:36] <Decepticon> is there super pi or something
[18:36] <Decepticon> or is ithat just cpu usage
[18:36] <usser> Decepticon, thats just cpu,
[18:36] <geirha> Decepticon: You could make a small c program that mallocs a few gigabytes

[18:38] <tensei> Can someone help?  I want to create a shared folder on 1 ubuntu 8.04 desktop that I can access from another ubuntu 8.04 desktop.  I read a turorial on sharing, which seems easy enough.  In windows you can map a folder as a network drive, do you do the same thing on the client desktop??
[18:38] <geirha> Decepticon: that will create a binary, a.out, running it will allocate 1 gig memory
[18:38] <Decepticon> im more inclined to use geirha's method

[18:42] <orgthingy> I mean, flash did have "problems" with AOSS but, hmm, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=255422 fixed it (always did, it even fixes it on debian!)

[18:56] <jatt> are there any dissadvantages in using System->Quit->Hibernate instead of System->Quit->Shut Down? Hibernate is working great with my laptop, but I'm not sure if it has dissadvantages over shutdown...

[18:56] <racecar56> i don't have hardy yet, but kubuntu hardy is dying this october?
[18:57] <zonyl> jatt: Sometimes my hardware doesnt get re-initialized all the time (using a tablet with Wacom drivers for instance)
[18:57] <Jack_Sparrow> !releases
[18:57] <usser> racecar56, hardy will be supported until 2011
[18:57] <usser> Decepticon, just try fork bomb :)
[18:58] <computer> nikola tesla rules!
[18:58] <racecar56> why does kubuntu.org say "Kubuntu 8.04 - Featuring the mature KDE 3 and maintained until October 2009"
[18:58] <usser> racecar56, that doesnt seem right
[18:58] <jatt> zonyl: thanks for your reply. I see, yes I was thinking in hardware problems too, for example that hibernate would stress some hardware, but is just speculation from my part. If it doesn't have dissadvantages I will use Hibernate instead shutdown always :)
[18:59] <Jack_Sparrow> racecar56 Where did it say that?
[18:59] <yoshi_> does ubuntu have a problem with usb mice?
[18:59] <racecar56> kubuntu.org's download site
[18:59] <racecar56> http://www.kubuntu.org/getkubuntu/download
[18:59] <_VIM_> yoshi_: not usually
[18:59] <zonyl> jatt: Just try and see if you have problems.  My tablet is russian roulette with hibernate.  Sometimes everything works, sometimes not.
[18:59] <Jack_Sparrow> racecar56 is that a date that JDE dies?

[19:12] <usser> austin_, xvideo is called xv in mplayer
[19:12] <iaindalton> zonyl: that works, which is funny, because /etc/init.d/pulseaudio stop didn't
[19:12] <zonyl> unop: I have a distaste for pulseaudio and sometimes it refuses to go away nicely
[19:12] <Com3> Hi guys,,
[19:12] <danes> fearful, thank you, I was reading the website and was looking for that
[19:13] <not-a-cat> c0vert: hm....I can't seem to locate it
[19:13] <zonyl> iaindalton: Pulse for me is flakey.  That init script is useless most of the time
[19:13] <unop> zonyl, still .. killing it that way doesn't let it clean up after itself
[19:13] <iaindalton> zonyl: And you can tab-complete a name in most irc clients
[19:13] <treeoon> we need jackd 1.9.1 and ffado 2.0rc1 in jaunty!
[19:13] <fearful> danes, your welcome
[19:13] <treeoon> who do i talk to about this?
[19:13] <eseven73> yowshi: _VIM_ is right here, (i had to log off) I wasn't aware you needed me for anything else, but if you tell me the make/model again ill see what I can find :)
[19:13] <danes> anyone knows  how can I program a atmega32 microchip under ubuntu?
[19:13] <c0vert> not-a-cat,  when you right click the networking icon at the top it does say wireless is enabled right
[19:13] <zonyl> iaindalton: ;) Thanks for the tip!
[19:13] <not-a-cat> c0vert: that it does
[19:14] <felixsulla> What is the best place to get a .vdi for the newest ubuntu?
[19:14] <Lasivian> I tried to enable cube in compiz but now I can;t change workspaces at all.. *grovel*
[19:14] <not-a-cat> c0vert: but I was unable to connect with any kind of configuration (wep, open, etc..)
[19:14] <Com3> im having trouble with my Trident CyberBlade XP card, it wont load in any graphics mode in 8.04. you can go to qik.com/comthre3 to see what im talking about, all i get is a smokey screen i tried editing the xorg.conf without any suceess can someone help me? i can settup a live stream on what im doing and see if someone could help me
[19:14] <btl> Has anyone in here gotten elisa to run on Intrepid?
[19:14] <geirha> treeoon: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuDevelopment/NewPackages
[19:14] <c0vert> not-a-cat,  but it lists the networks?
[19:14] <yowshi> eseven73: i solved the problem myself when i found the locomo logitech usb mouse driver in synatpic
[19:14] <not-a-cat> c0vert: no...and that's what's bugging me
[19:14] <iaindalton> OK, so when sound stops working, kill pulseaudio with extreme prejudice ;-)
[19:15] <not-a-cat> c0vert: my windows mashine has like 10 of them (not including mine)
[19:15] <austin_> usser: they work ful screen, but it flickers in windowed, or if i open up a menu
[19:15]  * iaindalton wishes sound in ubuntu 8.10 worked as well is in windows 95...or system 7 :P
[19:15] <treeoon> thanks geirha
[19:15] <eseven73> yowshi: ok , well at least you got it going :)
[19:15] <treeoon> iaindalton: it does
[19:15] <c0vert> not-a-cat,  so it's obviously not finding your wifi card, do you know the exact model of it?
[19:15] <treeoon> theres too many ways to configure it tho ;)
[19:15] <ldlework> How do I run the system administration stuff as root from the menu?
[19:15] <yowshi> eseven73: i was just saying if your going to say ubuntu doesnt normally have problems with usb mice you might want to mention that there is a driver you may be lacking
[19:15] <austin_> usser: a friend of mine recommneded to get rid of compositing
[19:16] <austin_> usser: how do i do that
[19:16] <yowshi> eseven73: :)
[19:16] <usser> austin_, yea that may be one thing, ati doesnt play nice with compiz still to this day
[19:16] <eseven73> yowshi: my computer is giving me fits (with KDE4.2 ) so I probably wasn't pay attention , my bad
[19:16] <ldlework> Anyone know how to run something like Users and Groups as root from the menu?
[19:16] <not-a-cat> c0vert: just name the command :)
[19:16] <usser> austin_, you're using gnome right?
[19:16] <austin_> usser: no, kde
[19:16] <yowshi> eseven73: ah i was thinking of installing and trying out the new kde today
[19:16] <c0vert> not-a-cat,  i was asking if you knew the model name of your wifi card
[19:16] <not-a-cat> c0vert: iwconfig?
[19:16] <usser> austin_, alt+f2 and type kwin --replace
[19:16] <Lasivian> ctral-alt-down is supposed to load cube, right?
[19:16] <not-a-cat> c0vert: no, not really, just bought the thing today
[19:16] <unop> ldlework, you should be prompted for the root password if you launched that item.
[19:17] <eseven73> yowshi: the new kde is just fine, it's opensuse's KDE 4.2 Factory edition that is the prob
[19:17] <austin_> usser: then what?
[19:17] <usser> austin_, also update your driver if u installed with ubuntu's restricted manager tool
[19:17] <eseven73> i didnt wanna mention what os i was on ;)
[19:17] <austin_> usser: how do i update that as well?
[19:17] <usser> austin_, nothing kwin --replace should disable compiz
[19:17] <ldlework> unop, nope and all the groups are inactive so I can't manipulate them (Intrepid)
[19:17] <austin_> and oh ok
[19:17] <iaindalton> treeoon: it does for you, but as for me, I never had sound suddenly stop working in another OS.  Either sound just worked, or you had to find drivers, but once it worked, it didn't quit.
[19:17] <Com3> anyone?
[19:17] <unop> ldlework, i would do this, if that didn't work.   gksu users-admin  or  gksu user-admin  # can't remember which is the correct one
[19:17] <ldlework> thanks
[19:18] <danes> THANK YOU ALL GUYS TO KEEP UBUNTU UP AND RUNNING!!! :D
[19:18] <usser> austin_, but if you're on kde 4, it has its own effects, doesnt rely on compiz so you may need to turn it off as well, i dont remember where it is though, should be in system-settings appearance
[19:18] <Decepticon> how can i make this a alias, so i can refer back to it, in .bashrc .. the single quotes are messing up echo, and i cannot directly place it as a alias because $a or whatever takes on program names for some reason
[19:18] <not-a-cat> c0vert: I do know it's Intel, but I'm unsure of the exact version
[19:18] <Decepticon> how can i make this a alias, so i can refer back to it, in .bashrc .. the single quotes are messing up echo, and i cannot directly place it as a alias because $a or whatever takes on program names for some reason ### i want to set this to alias eatram ### perl -e 'my @a; do { for (0..2**25){$a[$_]=$_} } while 1'
[19:18] <felixsulla> Does anyone know where to get the Ubuntu 8.10 .vdi for Virtualbox?
[19:18] <c0vert> not-a-cat,  ok one sec
[19:18] <zonyl> iaindalton: It was a lot more stable in Hardy.  Ibex audio was the first time I have had real odd audio problems with Linux once driver was installed
[19:18] <unop> Decepticon, use a function instead.   function eat_some_mem() {  perl -e '...' ; }
[19:19] <usser> austin_, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/ATI scroll down to install from ati(latest version of drivers)
[19:19] <usser> austin_, they really fixed a lot of stuff in their latest release
[19:19] <Decepticon> unop how so?
[19:19] <c0vert> not-a-cat,  open up a terminal and type the command 'lspci' and look for the make there..
[19:19] <ldlework> unop, interestingly the groups are still inactive so I cannot manipulate them
[19:19]  * iaindalton waits patiently for 9.04
[19:19] <Decepticon> unop this is talkinga bout .bashrc still?
[19:20] <unop> Decepticon, right.  just that you use a function instead of an alias to the same effect
[19:20] <usser> austin_, in the instructions just change the name of the driver to whatever's current, they used 8.443.1-1 as an example
[19:20] <yowshi> eseven73: grrr i cant seem to install kde on my system some dependencies cant be met :(
[19:20] <c0vert> not-a-cat,  you're looking for WLAN
[19:20] <unop> ldlework, hmm, that's odd.  not sure then ... as i don't use gnome
[19:20] <geirha> Decepticon: it's possible to use an alias, but you'll need to escape special characters, so the function approach is easier
[19:20] <Decepticon> geirha i see
[19:20] <austin_> usser: i do not have a 9xxx card though
[19:21] <ehird> How can I use a wireless apple keyboard? I tried using a guide but it used `hidd`, which I don't have.
[19:21] <not-a-cat> c0vert: Intel Corporation Wireless WiFi Link 5100
[19:21]  * Lasivian would like to figure out why cube isn;t working but she doesn't know enough :P
[19:21] <Decepticon> unop thanks for that idea
[19:21] <usser> austin_, what card do you have?
[19:21] <unop> Decepticon, np
[19:21] <Decepticon> its working
[19:21] <TriBeCa99> hi guys, I'm having trouble setting up samba. I'm try to get it so I can mount shares as drives from windows, but it's tellin me bad login/password.
[19:21] <usser> austin_, ati site lets you pick appropriate driver for your card
[19:21] <TriBeCa99> on 8.10
[19:21] <iaindalton> ehird: install it
[19:21] <not-a-cat> c0vert: I have found the button/indicator for wireless, but it's not lit.. :(
[19:22] <c0vert> not-a-cat,  ok
[19:22] <LinkinX64> TriBeCa99,  did u do smbpasswd -u user?
[19:22] <ehird> iaindalton: and which package would this be?
[19:22] <TriBeCa99> LinkinX64: no, will do one sec
[19:22] <LinkinX64> TriBeCa99,  u need it
[19:22] <iaindalton> ehird, if you try to run a program you don't have but a repository provides, bash will tell you the name of the package
[19:22] <rapha> Hi!
[19:22] <iaindalton> so type `hidd' in a terminal
[19:23] <ehird> iaindalton: I did that and it does not tell me. I know this...
[19:23] <ehird> I think it's from an older version of a package.
[19:23] <austin_> usser: they don't have a driver for my card though
[19:23] <burkmat> !hi | rapha
[19:23] <rapha> What's the difference between "NVIDIA accelerated graphics driver (version 96)", "173" and "177"? How do I know which one to use?
[19:23] <usser> austin_, whats the card?
[19:23] <iaindalton> ehird: what do you get when you type hidd?
[19:23] <ehird> bash: hidd: command not found
[19:23] <austin_> usser:4850 i beleave
[19:24] <c0vert> not-a-cat,  are you using ubuntu 8.10?
[19:24] <not-a-cat> c0vert: yes, fresh install
[19:24] <usser> austin_, can you paste the results of lspci | grep VGA
[19:24] <iaindalton> hmm, maybe your bash is set up differently.  mine reports bluez-compat as having it
[19:24] <felixsulla> Is 8.04 or 8.10 better to ruN?
[19:24] <ehird> hmm ok
[19:24] <c0vert> not-a-cat, the wifi switch on the laptop, is switched on right? lol
[19:24] <rapha> felixsulla: depends on what to run it for?
[19:24]  * ehird installs bluez-compat
[19:25] <felixsulla> A virtual box with the most up to date features. Trying to learn Linux
[19:25] <TriBeCa99> LinkinX64: it gives me 'could not connect to machine <IP_ADDRESS> failed to change password blah blah"
[19:25] <not-a-cat> c0vert: hehe..that's a tricky one
[19:25] <LinkinX64> TriBeCa99,  weird....http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=202605
[19:25] <usser> austin_, its probably radeon 4800 hd series
[19:25] <rapha> felixsulla: in that case, definitely 8.10, as it has much more up-to-date features than 8.04 obviously.
[19:25] <c0vert> not-a-cat,  apparently that card is supposed to work out of the box so the switch might be off..
[19:25] <LinkinX64> TriBeCa99,  i asume u installed samba

[19:26] <MTecknology> I have this little bluetooth usb dongle that I have no idea how to use. bluetooth-browse isn't seeing it either. It shows up under lsusb as Bus 004 Device 002: ID 0a12:0001 Cambridge Silicon Radio, Ltd Bluetooth Dongle (HCI mode)
[19:26] <not-a-cat> c0vert: I'll try again and report
[19:26] <usser> austin_, yea its this one ati radeon hd4800 series
[19:26] <rapha> felixsulla: Once you've become comfortable with it, you may also want to try out the Alpha 4 release of 9.04.
[19:26] <rapha> Anyone, what's the difference between "NVIDIA accelerated graphics driver (version 96)", "173" and "177"? How do I know which one to use?
[19:26] <arooni> looking for a stopwatch program for ubuntu ibex... both karm and stopwatch packages dont seem to load.
[19:26] <austin_> usser: i just isntalled w.e the restriced drivers gave me
[19:27] <usser> rapha, i think they are for compatibility 96 is for quadro 173 is for some older cards like geforce mx200/400 etc and 173 is the for everything else,recent cards like 8000 series 9000
[19:27] <austin_> usser: how do i chck which one i have installed
[19:27] <usser> austin_, which one what?
[19:28] <usser> austin_, which version of the driver?
[19:28] <felixsulla> 8.10 comes with Firefox 3 by default, right?
[19:28] <rapha> usser: So with a GeForce 6600 LE I'd use version 177?
[19:28] <fearful> felixsulla, correct
[19:28] <rapha> felixsulla: yes
[19:28] <usser> rapha, yea
[19:28] <rapha> Okay, thanks usser!
[19:28] <Lasivian> does anyone know the key combo to show the cube in that compiz plugin?
[19:28] <austin_> usser: yes
[19:28] <Lasivian> ctrl-alt-down isn;t doing anything
[19:28] <fearful> Lasivian, make sure the plugin is enabled and check inside the preferences
[19:29] <rapha> felixsulla: if you're interested in OpenOffice.org 3.0 though, you'll have install that yourself as 8.10 comes with OOo 2.something
[19:29] <Lasivian> fearful: it is enabled, desktops is set to 4/1/1
[19:29] <iaindalton> Lasivian: doesn't compiz stupidly use mod4 instead of ctl-alt?
[19:29] <felixsulla> Is OO 3 in synpatic?
[19:29] <fearful> Lasivian, then I don't know I don't use desktop cube
[19:29] <Lasivian> iaindalton: sorry, I don;t know what mod4 is
[19:29] <felixsulla> I have been messing around with 7.10, but I think I need to go to 8.10
[19:29] <rapha> felixsulla: If you add an extra repository, yes.
[19:29] <magnetron> Lasivian→ what key combo is listed in your Compiz settings?
[19:29] <usser> austin_, hm im not sure, try modinfo fglrx
[19:29] <iaindalton> If you have a windows keyboard, it's the windows key.  On a mac, I dunno.
[19:30] <felixsulla> rapha, ok stupid question, what does add a repository mean?
[19:30] <Lasivian> ctrl-alt-down to open the cube just "space" to rotate
[19:30] <Lasivian> which makes NO sense
[19:30] <felixsulla> I've been a windows user too long ;(
[19:30] <bertolo> me too
[19:30] <usser> austin_, there should be ati utility that lists various info, or glxinfo should provide some info
[19:30] <hmw> is there a composing program in the style of an "old school" tracker? (like on the amiga or FT2)
[19:30] <bertolo> how can i configure my nvidia settings ?
[19:30] <magnetron> felixsulla→ ubuntu software consists of packages, stored online on servers known as "repositories"
[19:31] <fearful> felixsulla, this might be of help http://news.softpedia.com/news/How-To-Install-OpenOffice-org-3-0-in-Ubuntu-8-10-96449.shtml
[19:31] <bertolo> my nvidia settings are mad!!! HELP
[19:31] <rapha> felixsulla: It means, open Synaptic, click "Settings" in the menu, then "Package Sources" (or so, I'm not running an English Ubuntu) and add a repo there
[19:31] <iaindalton> felixsulla: when you type something like apt-get install firefox, apt-get searches through the repositories it knows of for a package named firefox, and if it finds it, it dls and installs it
[19:31] <tensei> how do I view a shared folder on an ubuntu desktop from another ubuntu computer?
[19:31] <felixsulla> And Synpatic is basically just the GUI version of apt-get command line right?
[19:31] <arooni> looking for a stopwatch program for ubuntu ibex... both karm and stopwatch packages dont seem to load.  dieas?
[19:31] <rapha> felixsulla: the repository you'll want to add under Third-Party is http://ppa.launchpad.net/openoffice-pkgs/ubuntu
[19:32] <iaindalton> pretty much
[19:32] <unop> felixsulla, synaptic and apt-get are both frontends to APT itself
[19:32] <zleap> it cna do other stuff, so you can search for packages, which is like apt-cache search <package>
[19:32] <zleap> can
[19:32] <rapha> Sorry felixsulla, "http://ppa.launchpad.net/openoffice-pkgs/ubuntu intrepid main" is the full line

[19:32] <ldlework> OH CRAP, I did usermod -G and added myself to some groups but it removed me from all the standard groups and now I can't sudo or su, help!!!!
[19:32] <fearful> rapha, felixsulla, I'm pretty sure you need a key to install it out of that repository the link I provided shows you to install the key too
[19:33] <unop> ldlework, you'll need too boot into the recovery mode and put yourself back in the right groups
[19:33] <iaindalton> felixsulla: although if you like the command line, aptitude is better than apt-get.  if it has to install some packages only because the one you wanted to install depends on them, it will remember that and if you ever uninstall the package, it will uninstall the dependencies too.  apt-get and synaptic don't AFAIK
[19:33] <ldlework> omg.. unop do you know the list of groups?
[19:33] <Vorodie> hi
[19:33] <rapha> fearful: felixsulla: That's right. It would work without the key, but you'd get a warning.
[19:33] <usser> iaindalton, apt-get autoremove :)
[19:33] <bertolo> my nvidia settings are mad
[19:33] <bertolo> plz help
[19:33] <abc2xyz> where can i get list of ubuntu channels?
[19:33] <unop> ldlework, unfortunately no .. i've changed things around quite a bit on my machine.  ask someone else
[19:33] <rapha> bertolo: be more specific, pls
[19:33] <felixsulla> iaindalton: Do you use aptitude the same way? IE "aptitude get <whatever>"
[19:34] <iaindalton> usser: how's that work?
[19:34] <rapha> felixsulla: not get; install. But basically, yes.
[19:34] <ldlework> Can anyone tell me the groups that their main user has by default please?!
[19:34] <unop> ldlework, actually .. here you go http://ccollins.wordpress.com/2007/07/02/restore-default-ubuntu-groups/

[19:39] <MTecknology> magnetron: I tried from both. I set the bluetoothpreferences to always visible too
[19:39] <iaindalton> is there a way to see why an apt upgrade wants to install gedit?
[19:39] <n2diy> rapha: thanks.
[19:39] <usser> rapha, cool, probably want to preserve permissions too
[19:39] <magnetron> MTecknology→ yes, but HOW
[19:39] <harald> any help with ath5k wireless driver for 2.6.27-12-generic?
[19:39] <fearful> Shininggg, not really if your just looking for packages under a certain name, like if I wanted to see all the packages that have soemthing to do with firefox in my repos I would do apt-cache search firefox*
[19:39] <rapha> usser: n2diy: I would use tar exactly because of the permissions.
[19:39] <Wolong> wimpies: 9
[19:40] <MTecknology> magnetron: using bluetooth-applet
[19:40] <magnetron> harald→ just ask your question
[19:40] <ArthurD> hi people. How to uninstall SAVAGE2?
[19:40] <amathis> hello, I just installed the MS fonts package, and I need to access them using gimp.. how can I do this?
[19:40] <magnetron> MTecknology→ i remember installing gnome-vfs-bluetooth
[19:40] <rapha> usser: n2diy: note that "tar backup.tar /home/user/*" would NOT add hidden files or directories tho! It would have to be "tar backup.tar /home/user" at least.
[19:40] <bertolo> rapha lol i s easy...just use envy :)
[19:40] <rapha> amathis: They should already be available.
[19:40] <aGe> i have a problem. when i type my dpkg comman,age@aGeDesktop:~$ dpkg --configure -a
[19:40] <aGe> dpkg: requested operation requires superuser privilege
[19:40] <Shininggg> fearful, exactly what i'm looking for thx a lot.
[19:41] <rapha> bertolo: Good then :) (never used it myself)
[19:41] <fearful> Shininggg, no problem.
[19:41] <harald> 2.6.27-12-generic contains ath5k 0.6.0 -- however, it fails to work with the ath5k in eeepc 901go.
[19:41] <amathis> rapha, well, I am trying to use 'Helvecta' in gimp.. and I refersh the fonts but I canot find it
[19:41] <tensei> if figured out how to mount a network place... but it put the folder on my desktop.  Is there anyway to have the folder mount somewhere other than the desktop?
[19:41] <rapha> amathis: did you restart GIMP after installing msttcorefonts?
[19:41] <iaindalton> aGe: stick sudo in front of that sucker
[19:41] <Aspekt> åñòü ðóññêèå?
[19:41] <amathis> rapha, yeah, and I tried refreshing the fonts in the gimp window as well..
[19:42] <rapha> tensei: It's not really mounted on the desktop; it just appears there as a symbol. The real mounting place is under /media.
[19:42] <rapha> amathis: Sorry, no idea then. Maybe the folks in irc.gimp.net#gimp can be of further help...?
[19:42] <Aspekt> àìåðåêîñû ïèäàðû ãíîéíûå!
[19:42] <fearful> tensei, ubuntu shows whats mounted on your desktop by default, you have to change the configuration to not to show any mounted on desktop
[19:42] <Aspekt> ë î õ è
[19:42] <rapha> Aspekt: Priviat. If you want help you should probably write in English...
[19:42] <iaindalton> amathis: do other gnome apps show the fonts?
[19:43] <aGe> iaindalton: thanks
[19:43] <amathis> iaindalton, I don't know... lemme think of an app to try
[19:43] <Aspekt> rapha >> ñîñè, ñàì ïèøè íà ðóññêîì
[19:43] <iaindalton> amathis: gedit, or appearance settings
[19:43] <magnetron> !ru | Aspekt
[19:44] <tensei> rapha: i went to /media and it's not there
[19:44] <rapha> Aspekt: There's also a Russian support channel, it's called "ubuntu-ru". Unfortunately I don't speak Russian myself and can't even read your Unicode characters..
[19:44] <unop> n2diy, you could use copy-by-pass.   (cd /somewhere && tar cpf - .) | ssh you@otherhost '(cd /elsewhere && tar xpf -)
[19:44] <evilGUI> How can I copy paste public key authentication passphrases?
[19:44] <amathis> iaindalton, no, apperance settings doesn't see it
[19:44] <harald> ath5k ... /var/log/messages says support for AR2425 chip is under development -- yet ath5k 0.5.0 delivered from array.org for 2.6.27-11-eeepc does work without problems
[19:44] <magnetron> rapha→ that wasn't unicode
[19:44] <Aspekt> à íàõ âàñ íåïîñëàòü?
[19:44] <evilGUI> ctrl+v = no go
[19:44] <iaindalton> amathis: log out then in
[19:44] <rapha> tensei: try the command "mount" on the console and see what it says...
[19:44] <amathis> ok
[19:44] <tensei> fearful: thank you... is there anyway to have it show up somewhere else??  how would I go about configuring that.. IE a "mounted" folder in a home directory
[19:44] <unop> n2diy,  i missed a ' at the end of that
[19:44] <iaindalton> amathis: or restart the font server
[19:44] <rapha> magnetron: whatever it is, I can't read it ;)
[19:44] <iaindalton> amathis: but I dunno how :|

[19:47] <iaindalton> amathis: Oh, no, it doesn't. :D

[19:50] <_niko> hey guys what ports do i open for irc using iptables i ahve 133 and 6667 but when ever i put a drop all rule at the end of the list irc disconnects
[19:50] <amathis> harald, yes, helvecta
[19:50] <rapha> n2diy: you probably didnt give the entire path to it then
[19:50] <paragonc> i saw something about session manager - but i dont see anything equivilant in 8.10
[19:50] <n2diy> rapha: ok
[19:50] <unop> n2diy, try this.   (cd /somewhere && tar cpf - .) | ssh you@otherhost '(cd /elsewhere && tar xpf -)
[19:50] <iaindalton> amathis: I think you're misspelling it
[19:50] <Myrtti> iaindalton: it's probably russian but with a different charset than UTF8
[19:51] <amathis> ok 'helvetica'
[19:51] <iaindalton> Myrtti: I can see the characters and it's not russian.  It's just all the vowels with all the different accents
[19:51] <hmw> _niko - in case you dont find a better solution, install wireshark, open the firewall and look, what ports are used
[19:51] <iaindalton> he was just spamming
[19:51] <harald> then it's commercial -- you can get them from one of the big foundries
[19:51] <MTecknology> magnetron: I'm still not getting anything to be seen
[19:51] <hmw> _niko - if you want me to examine your firewall script, pastebin it
[19:51] <Myrtti> iaindalton: which probably is russian cyrilic letters in non-UTF8 charset.
[19:52] <iaindalton> amathis: do you own a mac?
[19:52] <paragonc_> whats the best method to add a program to startup under Ubuntu 8.10
[19:52] <amathis> nope :)
[19:52] <unop> !boot > paragonc
[19:52] <hmw> !boot > hmw
[19:52] <_niko> hmw: ok i will pastebin it
[19:52] <kinja-sheep> I'm curious.  How do you update/upgrade the packages (as same as to GUI upgrade).  sudo aptitude safe-upgrade or sudo aptitude full-upgrade?
[19:52] <iaindalton> amathis: for print purposes Nimbus Sans L is Helvetica, but it's unhinted and looks like dog shit on screen.
[19:52] <MTecknology> magnetron: I tried using "hcitool scan" as described in the wiki but I got nothing
[19:52] <magnetron> MTecknology→ you're aware that you need to pair the PC and the phone before you can do anything, right?
[19:53] <MTecknology> magnetron: that's what I'm trying to do
[19:53] <Myrtti> iaindalton: mind the language, we've got underaged kids here
[19:53] <harald> iaindalton: what about "DejaVue Sans"?
[19:53] <iaindalton> Myrtti: sorry.
[19:53] <MTecknology> magnetron: I assumed hcitool scan would list devices I can try to pair with
[19:53] <amathis> iaindalton, well, it is for a graphic that wil be on a website so.. :P
[19:53] <iaindalton> harald: That's a different font.  Doesn't look anything like Helvetica.
[19:53] <unop> !startup > paragonc ( sorry !boot does not have a guide to user startup options anymore )
[19:53] <iaindalton> It's a nice font and all
[19:54] <paragonc> k
[19:54] <MTecknology> magnetron: and I also assumed setting my bluetooth settings to never hide itself would mean that I could try to pair with it
[19:54] <iaindalton> amathis: if it's big, hinting doesn't matter.  24+ points?
[19:54] <MTecknology> magnetron: I'm gonna try a restart and see if that fixes any headaches
[19:54] <paragonc> thanks

[20:02] <Tecna> iaindalton: There shouldn't be, because I copied and pasted someone else's command.
[20:02] <dr_Willis> MARKMYERS,  ive seen such things.. but i think it was actually 1 card + a hub/switch built in..   never did actyally buy one. :)
[20:02] <iaindalton> Tecna: I see that unicode char in what you just said, too
[20:02] <iaindalton> It's between these quotes: ''

[20:10] <bertolo> can i update my ubuntu 8.04 to 8.10 using a 8.10 cd ?
[20:10] <slipstenen> linoge: yeah, go for the clone instead.
[20:10] <jeff-01> Ok thanks a lot ... !!
[20:10] <dr_Willis> toader,  i dont think theres an easy way to do it. theres too many sercvices needed  - you could manually stoip the services you dont want running perhaps
[20:10] <IOS|warlock> magnetron: yes I was running a web serverr, but not sharing ownerships between ftpuser and www-data
[20:10] <toader> Scunizi_: no gui, no any service
[20:10] <marat> Hi all! where I could find Feisty 7.04 repos? It seems that all of them are gone
[20:10] <marctw> my ubuntu is running slow and i hear that kubuntu and xubuntu is much faster
[20:10] <slipstenen> unop: ty, learned something new today as well
[20:11] <toader> dr_Willis: could u tell me how to
[20:11] <thiebaude1> bertolo: no, not to keep the programs you already have on 8.04
[20:11] <dr_Willis> toader,  xdm/kdm/gdm will stop the GUI. but theres a lot of services that are needed for normal operatuion - You could try the 'single user mode' i guess.
[20:11] <marat> marctw: kubuntu isn't.
[20:11] <fearful> marctw, sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop or xubuntu-desktop, this will give you the choice to login using KDE or xfce then go pure on whichever you you prefer
[20:11] <dr_Willis> toader,  sudo service WHATEVER stop
[20:11] <unop> slipstenen, yea, your way would invoke apt-get for each package too .. and that might not solve all dependencies
[20:11] <thiebaude1> bertolo: you can do update manager -s
[20:11] <magnetron> IOS|warlock→ but that's exactly you were asking about. instead, i recommend using SSH-server, it's much easier to do that using SSH/SFTP
[20:11] <toader> dr_Willis: how to start to single user moder
[20:11] <rakudave> !ccsm | jeff-01
[20:11] <IOS|warlock> magnetron: I want to run this setup, I didn't ask for your opinion about my setup
[20:11] <toader> dr_Willis: how to start to single user mode?
[20:12] <dr_Willis> toader,  append 'single' to the end of the grub boot line, or try the rescue/recovery mode optuion. its about the same thing
[20:12] <magnetron> IOS|warlock→ i already told you what to do
[20:12] <IOS|warlock> Yes, and I asked you if you knew the command for it
[20:12] <marctw> fearful: i tried that but all it changed was my login screen and it still booted the gnome splash screen
[20:12] <numpszi> Hello! If i make a release of a program, is it a good idea to put all of the binaries into a tar.gz file and publish it on the internet?
[20:13] <bertolo> thiebaude1: i have no internet
[20:13] <thiebaude1> oh, ok
[20:13] <fearful> marctw, you have to change the session, in the loging screen click the sessions and it will give you the choice on xfce or kde whichever you installed
[20:13] <hmw> _niko this chart might help you, too: http://www.64-bit.de/dokumentationen/netzwerk/e/002/nfk-traversal.png
[20:13] <squarebracket> i have a mythbuntu server and i want to launch ktorrent on startup, where should i put that?
[20:13] <IOS|warlock> magnetron: figured it out, thanks for your opinions though.
[20:14] <marctw> i dont know why my ubuntu runs bad my vista flys compared to ubuntu what would cause this?
[20:14] <slipstenen> numpszi: I guess it is better to do a repository if you want to distribute compiled files. archive would be ok for source though.
[20:15] <Scunizi_> marctw: the video driver.. do you have an nvidia card if so which one?
[20:15] <warty> hello mens
[20:15] <Pupeno> Any ideas what to do with a machine that overheats whenever it's running the android emulator? can ubuntu slow it down if it's running too hot instead of shutting it down?
[20:15] <magnetron> IOS|warlock→ good luck
[20:16] <marctw> no i have a ati radeon x200m, this is my laptop
[20:16] <magnetron> Pupeno→ what kind of CPU do you have?
[20:16] <dr_Willis> x200m here - used the fglrx drivers. it wasent a fast laptop i had.. but it worked. :)
[20:17] <Pupeno> magnetron: Intel Core 2 Duo 1.83GHz.
[20:17] <marctw> dr_Willis: isnt that the driver it uses by default?
[20:17] <dr_Willis> marctw,  No.. 'ati' driver is the OSS default driver.. fglrx = one from ati you install
[20:17] <Tecna> Does anyone know how to change the default read/write permissions on a usb drive that automatically mounts?
[20:18] <yowshi> ok this is wierd. lsusb lists the mouse as a logitech scrollmouse but lomoco sees it as an unsupported logitech device. can someone please help me with this
[20:18] <fearful> Tecna, sudo chmod 755 /media/<Name>
[20:18] <hmw> marctw - 1) you might need different drivers for your graphics adapter 2) you might have to less RAM (1.2GB minimum for acceptable performance) 3) you might not yet have discovered, in which way ubuntu is different in being slow compared to windows - each of them can be slow, but in different situations - use ubuntu for at least 10 days and you will discover the pattern, i mean.
[20:18] <numpszi> ok, thanks
[20:19] <magnetron> Pupeno→ i'm surprised to hear that such a CPU would overheat. i suggest fixing your hardware problem, by installing proper cooling. you *can* slow software down with the nice/renice commands, but no software will overheat a proper cooled hardware.
[20:19] <Tecna> hmw: I don't completely understand what to do with that command.
[20:19] <JPSman> how do I edit my grub from a LiveCD session?
[20:19] <marctw> im just tired of waiting 20 seconds for my file manager to open when vista opens explorer in about 2 sec
[20:19] <Pupeno> magnetron: it's a laptop.
[20:20] <eper3z> OK DUDES, so im using fglrx as my graphics card driver and i got dual view/screen running from the ati catalyst control center and everything works fine except upon restart the computer goes back to TWINVIEW and i have to manually switch to dualview every LOGON!? help! thanks in advance
[20:20] <hmw> Tecna - huh? what command? (sorry i am somewhat distracted, maybe i forgot, that i talked to you)
[20:20] <fearful> Tecna, do you know where your USB is mounted at?
[20:20] <magnetron> Pupeno→ make sure that cpu frequency scaling is enabled.
[20:20] <Pupeno> magnetron: I don't mean nice/renice, shouldn't Ubuntu lower the CPU freq when it's running too hot?
[20:20] <Tecna> fearful: yes
[20:20] <MoTec> marctw: are you running from the live cd or did you do an install?
[20:20] <fearful> Tecna, ok so in the terminal type sudo chmod 755 /<where your USB is mounted>
[20:21] <burkmat> JPSman, You mean edit your menu.lst file?
[20:21] <Tecna> but what exactly does that do?
[20:21] <usser> Pupeno, it should if cpu supports it
[20:21] <fearful> Tecna, it changes the permissions so you can read/write
[20:21] <usser> Pupeno, i know my celeron doesnt have cpu scaling
[20:21] <Jack_Sparrow> JPSman we need more info, how did you lose grub?  Reinstalling windows
[20:21] <hmw> marctw - disabling some unneeded services might help a little, too.
[20:21] <dr_Willis> fearful,  if its a ntfs or vfat usb drive.. that wont work... he may wan tto run the ntfs-config command and check the 'allow users'  features
[20:22] <JPSman> I reinstalled windows and it removed grub from starting at the begining
[20:22] <Tecna> fearful: will that be preserved for future mounts, or will I have to do that again?
[20:22] <Jack_Sparrow> JPSman no prob..
[20:22] <burkmat> !grub | JPSman
[20:22] <Jack_Sparrow> JPSman single or dual hard drives
[20:22] <JPSman> thank you thank you
[20:22] <fearful> Tecna, yea I think dr_Willis is right first check what type of file system it is.
[20:22] <Pupeno> usser: well, cat /proc/cpu is showing cpu MHz : 1000, so it's not even running at full throtle now.
[20:23] <usser> Pupeno, then scaling works, the problem is with cooling
[20:23] <dr_Willis> ext2/3/linux filesystems - that may work..  vfat/ntfs   filesystems the permissions MUST be set by how they are mounted
[20:23] <Tecna> it's vfat iirc
[20:24] <dr_Willis> Tecna,  install./run the ntfs-config tool and  it has some check box options that may get it gouing right
[20:25] <Huufarted> Pupeno: I had this problem once.  Come to find out, the heatsink on the CPU was crap and the blades were so close together, it was acting as a FILTER and was collecting any dust going through the fans
[20:25] <Tecna> dr_Willis: I don't know how to do that.  *pictures you facepalming*
[20:25] <Pupeno> Huufarted: in a laptop?
[20:25] <Huufarted> yessir
[20:25] <constantine> hi, which VPN prgram for intrepid would you suggest for accessing an unsecured wifi zone like a coffee house?
[20:25] <Discipulus> So my Atheros Wireless Card is failing to pick up any wireless network and I'm 2 inches from the wireless router and the other laptop in the house picks it up
[20:25] <Pupeno> Huufarted: dell?
[20:25] <Discipulus> What is the issue
[20:26] <Discipulus> ???
[20:26] <eper3z> OK DUDES, so im using fglrx as my graphics card driver and i got dual view/screen running from the ati catalyst control center and everything works fine except upon restart the computer goes back to TWINVIEW and i have to manually switch to dualview every LOGON!? help! thanks in advance
[20:26] <Huufarted> No, it all depends on the heat sink for the issue I was having, Pupeno.
[20:26] <_niko> hmv: Thanks again that chartd does make a few things make more sence
[20:26] <Discipulus> Has anyone had this problem before?
[20:26] <Discipulus> or know how to fix the problem?
[20:26] <pop79> hello everybody
[20:26] <Pupeno> Huufarted: yes, I know, just checking. I'll open it before sending it to dell.
[20:27] <Huufarted> Pupeno: frequently in laptops, the fans are used to drag air through the heat sinks.  My situation had the heat sink blades collecting the dust.  After a year or so, there was so much dust, it was CAKED on there and I had to pick it out with tiny pliers
[20:28] <Discipulus> I'm having a wireless situation does anyone know how to help me through my issue?
[20:28] <Tecna> dr_Willis?
[20:28] <dr_Willis> hm,m
[20:28] <Pupeno> Huufarted: I'm starting to open it as we speak, err, chat.
[20:28] <dr_Willis> Tecna,  install and run 'ntfs-config' its a tool to tweak that stuff..
[20:29] <n2diy> rapha: unop, thanks, so far so good, I got all my files moved, but some system settings didn't make the trip. Items in my menus need to be copied now, what file(s) might that info be in?
[20:30] <Tecna> it's not ntfs.  it's vfat
[20:30] <Peddy> How do I check file permissions through command line?
[20:30] <Huufarted> Peddy, ls -l
[20:30] <Peddy> thank you Huufarted
[20:30] <n2diy> Peddy: ls -al
[20:31] <morla> does somebody know the nForce 750a SLI chipset, or the ASUS M3N-HD board?
[20:31] <Huufarted> yeah, Peddy.  add the 'a' on there to list even hidden files (files starting with .)
[20:31] <Peddy> ok :)
[20:31] <Peddy> thanks Huufarted and n2diy

[20:45] <quagmire> jeff-01, and also rotate cube i guess
[20:45] <Plugh> olleorama: you could try imagemagick. Not sure if it has a simple way to ensure output file names are in lower case.
[20:45] <Chousuke> fearful: find it from the internet.
[20:45] <jeff-01> Cube activated
[20:45] <jeffwheeler> I'm not really sure where to report this, but Launchpad has been trying every three hours for the past three weeks to run an svn import on the Lyx package, and it fails every time.
[20:46] <jeff-01> But it's flat showing only 2 desktops
[20:46] <kristian2> Does Ubuntu make any money when I use http://start.ubuntu.com/8.10/ too google with instead of google.com? If not, then I will change to google.com, but if they make any money if I use it too search on google, then I will keep it.
[20:46] <jeffwheeler> I think it has to do with Unicode encoding . . .
[20:46] <olleorama> plugh, yeah, I thought so.. well, might try it now, thx everybody for suggestions
[20:46] <quagmire> jeff-01, rotate cube also enabled ?
[20:46] <fearful> Chousuke, thanks
[20:46] <jeff-01> OK i found out
