[17:58] <maxlinux> i am installed bittorrent on my desktop but i don't see it on my menu
[17:58] <Dr_willis> bullgard4,  fire up synaptic and search for  fat32 perhaps.  heck the old mtools may do it.
[17:58] <Dr_willis> !info mtools

[18:01] <jussio1> !freedom | narothepharoh
[18:01] <ubotu> narothepharoh: freedom is important. Ubuntu is as free as we can make it, which means mostly free software. See http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/free-sw.html and http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/licensing
[18:01] <sandaru1> harry_: type gnome-panel in the terminal.. Alt+F2 gnome-panel

[18:02] <AquaFox|Laptop> I need help: When I type lsusb I get no output!
[18:02] <sandaru1> harry_: the above answer is assuming you are talking about the gnome panel aka menu bar/time/tray icons
[18:02] <narothepharoh> It was accident sorry
[18:02] <Pici> harry_: if you are using KDE, please ask in #kubuntu.  Thanks.
[18:02] <Dr_willis> narothepharoh,  linux is legally free..    its not about 'getting around' windows.   its a tool.
[18:02] <vectorx> for the last few days my update manager has displayed 3 smbclient updates that are 404 or 403 on the server it's trying to receive them from
[18:03] <harry_> sorry Pici I forget how to get there
[18:03] <narothepharoh> like a wga tool
[18:03] <jussio1> harry_: /join #kubuntu
[18:03] <Pici> harry_: just type /j #kubuntu  (no space in front)
[18:03] <narothepharoh> they are all tools to work aroung
[18:03] <narothepharoh> around

[18:04] <ikonia> AquaFox|Laptop: do you have any usb devices plugged in
[18:04] <Pici> captine: I really don't know enough about multiple monters to help you, sorry.
[18:04] <Dr_willis> narothepharoh,  a lot of the 'tools' where around befor windows. So whatever...
[18:04] <sandaru1> AquaFox|Laptop: nothing at all?
[18:04] <AquaFox|Laptop> ikonia, the ones inside my laptop are plugged in (webcam etc)
[18:04] <AquaFox|Laptop> sandaru1, nothing at all
[18:04] <captine> pici, np.  thnx  will ask on wkend when have time.
[18:04] <Pici> jd_: I've heard people being able to run it fine, but others not.  Try asking in #winehq :)
[18:04] <AquaFox|Laptop> The terminal freezes.
[18:04] <ikonia> AquaFox|Laptop: they are not usb
[18:04] <AquaFox|Laptop> ikonia, lsusb returned them before.
[18:04] <jd_> thanks pici
[18:04] <ikonia> AquaFox|Laptop: really ?
[18:04] <f22varer> exit
[18:04] <AquaFox|Laptop> Yes.
[18:04] <narothepharoh> not trying to fight just trying to make a point i do understand yours though
[18:05] <f22varer> \exit
[18:05] <Burlynn> AquaFox|Laptop: you sure it wasnt lspci
[18:05] <narothepharoh> I believe in freedom as well
[18:05] <massada> if the video card supports it it will load for nVidia with the restricted drivers - worked this way for me and worked fine :)
[18:05] <massada> for dual monitors
[18:06] <AquaFox|Laptop> Burlynn, and everyone else stop treating me like a n00b.. lsusb is supposed to output something.. it doesn't even exist and YES I am sure it wasn't lspci.
[18:06] <sandaru1> AquaFox|Laptop : try " lsusb >& file && cat file"  <-- that's a long shot
[18:06] <AquaFox|Laptop> *it doesn't even exit
[18:06] <ikonia> !attitude >AquaFox|laptop
[18:06] <ssper> hey everyone. just fresh install 7.10 on my desktop and am having problems getting my wireless network card connected to my network.
[18:07] <AquaFox|Laptop> sandaru1, lsusb doesn't exit.
[18:07] <massada> ssper are you using vmware ?
[18:07] <AquaFox|Laptop> It freezes.
[18:07] <ssper> when i first booted up, i had a list of the networks around me that i could connect to, so i selected mine, input the wep password, and it wouldn't connect.
[18:07] <Dr_willis> which lsusb --- > /usr/sbin/lsusb       Your PATH may not include sbin
[18:07] <captine> ssper, am having the same problem
[18:07] <captine> on laptop
[18:07] <ssper> massada: nope
[18:08] <ssper> so after trying to connect the default ubuntu way, i started trying to set it up using iwconfig
[18:08] <massada> okay i had the problem on my vmware install with 7.10 and had to use nat to get it to work here on the lappy it never saw the wireless network
[18:08] <AquaFox|Laptop> Dr_willis, I run some lsusb so it is in my PATH and it freezes and outputs nothing.
[18:08] <ssper> which also doesn't work ;). and now my network settings are all whack
[18:08] <captine> ssper, did you have to use ndiswrapper?
[18:08] <ssper> massada: it could see the network just fine
[18:08] <ssper> captine: i'm unsure
[18:08] <sandaru1> AquaFox|Laptop: did you change your kernel recently? or kernel modules?
[18:08] <ssper> captine: i don't think i did
[18:09] <lonran> I am running xgl and when mplayer is fullscreen, playback becomes very slow. Is there any way to solve this?
[18:09] <AquaFox|Laptop> sandaru1, no..?
[18:09] <AquaFox|Laptop> I changed noapic nolapic out of my grub boot.
[18:09] <AquaFox|Laptop> I took it off.
[18:09] <sandaru1> AquaFox|Laptop: may be usb kernel modules are not loaded that's why.. to be sure, try "modprobe usbcore" and try lsusb
[18:09] <bcardarella> If I attach a digital camera to my computer where does it mount to? I've checked in /mnt and /media
[18:09] <captine> ssper, what app u use to search for wireless networks.  I dont seem to have any gui?
[18:10] <sidlet> capgadget, WirelessRadar is a good one
[18:10] <ssper> captine: it came up in my menu bar at the top of the screen
[18:10] <ssper> and now it says "no network devices have been found"
[18:10] <sidlet> capgadget, er, wifiradar rather.
[18:10] <AquaFox|Laptop> still doesn't work sandaru1
[18:10] <ssper> when i try to open the network settings, it takes forever and doesn't really work
[18:10] <ssper> so i'm confused
[18:10] <sandaru1> bcardarella : /dev/videoX
[18:10] <captine> ssper, join the club.. ;)
[18:11] <albech> anyone else experience gnome freeze when scrolling vertical in firefox?
[18:11] <captine> am still struggling as every time i try wireless, my wired con seems to die or something, then must reconnect and search for help etc
[18:11] <captine> lol
[18:11] <sidlet> albech, you using gutsy?
[18:11] <albech> 7.10?
[18:12] <sidlet> albech, yeah, 7.10 = gutsy
[18:12] <albech> sidlet: yes
[18:12] <AquaFox|Laptop> I need help: When I run lsusb it freezes and no output. Any ideas?
[18:12] <sidlet> albech, thats a common problem. last i heard firefox  in gutsy was acting strange all around
[18:12] <g-e> hey, is there a command, that shows the name of the mainboard inside a computer?
[18:12] <Pici> g-e: it might show in `sudo lshw`
[18:12] <no0tic> hi, I can't listen to realmedia streams with amarok, I installed w32codecs and checked .xine/config for realmedia codecs path and it is ok. Amarok continues to tell me that it can't load cook.so
[18:12] <bcardarella> sandaru1: thanks
[18:13] <albech> sidlet: ok, so i should just throw my computer out the window and look TV instead? ;)
[18:13] <sidlet> albech, thats one option ;)
[18:13] <sandaru1> AquaFox|Laptop: may be you can try with a different kernel.. there was some kernel modules in gusty upgrades.. about two days ago.. those modules may be causing some problems
[18:14] <sandaru1> AquaFox|Laptop: i hope you still have some commented out old kernels in your grub list!
[18:14] <sidlet> I'm so happy i use feisty. Gutsy seems to have more issues than I care to work with :P
[18:14] <albech> sidlet: guess i can go back to gentoo, but i really liked ubuntu :(
[18:14] <AquaFox|Laptop> What is latest kernel in repos sandaru1 ?
[18:14] <sidlet> albech, I'm using feisty with no problems. Why reinstall your distro because one or two apps are being buggy?
[18:14] <sandaru1> AquaFox|Laptop : 2.6.22-14
[18:15] <ssper> yay! internet works
[18:15] <ssper> for anyone who was wondering... i just restarted the computer ;)
[18:15] <Tarkus> are gtk themes (gtkrc) similar to css in how the code works?
[18:15] <albech> sidlet: im comming from a gentoo install.. but wanted to try out ubuntu and was very suprised to see how well it worked
[18:15] <sandaru1> AquaFox|Laptop : you may try with a bit older one.. 2.6.20-16 would be fine
[18:15] <sidlet> albech, gentoo = compile farm :P
[18:15] <perritito> hola
[18:15] <albech> sidlet: exactly
[18:15] <massada> gutsy does not see  my wireless at all here from a live boot CD using Intel 3945ABG wireless card
[18:15] <sidlet> albech, ubuntu is much more sane in my opinion
[18:16] <albech> sidlet: im running gentoo on all my servers, but ubuntu just seems a lot more sensible on a workstation
[18:16] <albech> sidlet: guess i should try 7.04
[18:16] <sidlet> albech, sounds like a plan to me. Until the firefox bug in gutsy is fixed, why not try another browser?
[18:17] <sidlet> albech, or you can downgrade to feisty. Its what i'm using and its rock solid.
[18:17] <Pici> !downgrade | sidlet albech
[18:17] <ubotu> sidlet albech: Attempting to downgrade to an older Ubuntu version is explicitly not supported, and may break your system.
[18:17] <sidlet> i still dont see the need to re-install if all your having is one isue tho.
[18:17] <zeroflag> what is trackerd? because it's going haywire on my system and my hdd...
[18:17] <Dark> Hey :D
[18:17] <alexou> hello what is the command to see what is my screen Hz ?
[18:18] <massada> 7.04 is better - seems to see more hardware on install
[18:18] <albech> sidlet: its causing the system to lock up fairly often though and i cant live with that
[18:18] <smartass> alexou: perhaps use grandr
[18:18] <sidlet> albech, try opera until its fixed? :P
[18:18] <albech> sidlet: there is nothing but a hard reboot
[18:18] <Dark> Can someone tell me 5 reasons to get Ubuntu?
[18:18] <AquaFox|Laptop> What are the backport modules??
[18:18] <albech> sidlet: yes i might do that

[18:19] <perritito> hola sanda
[18:19] <Dark> I still don't feel sure about changing..
[18:19] <sidlet> Dark, or rather, are you afriad of looking at something that looks like DOS? (assuming your coming from windows)

[18:20] <kinroad> dark: ubuntu is 1: secure 2: fast 3: doesn't BSOD 4: doesnt need re-installing every year like windows 5: almost easiest linux distro to use
[18:20] <sidlet> You know, with the introduction of the LIVECD your right
[18:20] <sidlet> i still choose to do much of my sysadmin in the console, but hey, thats a personal opinion. If i break stuff i *could* use the LIVE CD
[18:20] <Dark> Does the free CD ships to Mexico?
[18:20] <Dark> :P
[18:21] <albech> Dark: you dont have to restart every time you change something like your wallpaper ;)
[18:21] <massada> Dark, synaptics makes installing new progs a snap - great gui - fast install on 7.04 - works with vmware - kind of the best of 2 worlds for those learning the terminal - you can see how it works with your hardware from the live install
[18:21] <Stonekeeper> Does anyone have any experience adding a second VGA card to an existing gutsy install?
[18:21] <kinroad> in linux you have to restart only when you update your kernel or drivers
[18:22] <albech> kinroad: and that can be worked around too
[18:22] <Dark> Okay then, i'll search a bit more and decide.
[18:22] <Dark> Thank you lots :D

[18:23] <albech> kinroad: i havent tried it, but there is some tool that let you reload kernels without rebooting.. someone here might know about it
[18:24] <alexou_> sandaru1, i have a list, which is mine ?
[18:24] <ZePe> Hi, I have a problem with my Ubuntu 7.04 , I cant conect to my network with Wireless connection, I have WPA and in my ubuntu only apears WEP what can I do ?
[18:25] <dury> hi there channel .... :)

[18:25] <tyronepolleri> hello everyone I have a problem I installed already the w32codecs and some others that I don't remember and still I can not play *.wmv files
[18:25] <Stonekeeper> Pici: does gutsy support xinerama well? I don't really wanna be editing xorg.conf etc.
[18:25] <Pici> Stonekeeper: I really don't know, sorry.
[18:25] <sidlet> tyronepolleri, try using vlc player
[18:25] <Stonekeeper> np
[18:26] <sidlet> tyronepolleri, it supports everything under the sun
[18:26] <tyronepolleri> sidlet: can i use vlc player for online videos?
[18:26] <albech> kinroad: check kexec
[18:26] <Stonekeeper> I wish i had a DVI->VGA connector, that'd make it easy
[18:26] <sidlet> tyronepolleri, it supports streaming as well as a firefox plugin

[18:29] <keiserr> hi
[18:29] <tyronepolleri> sidlet: how can i select the aplication i want to use with firefox?
[18:29] <Scunizi> If I change my /home referance in fstab to a different partition and don't rename the current default /home to a different name (ie oldhome), will there be any conflicts between the two directories?
[18:29] <alexou_> sandaru1, thanks for your help, i think it's good :)
[18:29] <Patchak> sandaru1, does filezilla tranfer in ssh ??
[18:29] <sidlet> tyronepolleri, i removed the mplayer and totem firefox plugins. it defaulted to vlc
[18:29] <sandaru1> Patchak: yes
[18:29] <Patchak> oh great
[18:29] <Patchak> thanks
[18:30] <keiserr> I have an installed Feisty Fawn box (used the alternate CD), now i got a Gutsy Gibbon CD, can i upgrade that?
[18:30] <alexou_> Patchak, you can use gftp
[18:30] <astro76> Scunizi, not really, but when the new home is mounted to /home, any files that are there will be unaccessible... really the old /home should be emptied
[18:30] <keiserr> i mean, is there an easy way to upgrade feisty to gibbon?
[18:30] <Patchak> alexou_, I did, but I try to tranfer my site and each time the program just crashed
[18:30] <Pici> !upgrade | keiserr
[18:30] <ubotu> keiserr: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes
[18:30] <tyronepolleri> sidlet: vlc is not working either
[18:30] <alexou_> Patchak, filezilla can, select SFTP
[18:31] <sidlet> tyronepolleri, what error message is it giving you?
[18:31] <sandaru1> keiserr : do you have the gusty alternative CD?
[18:31] <sandaru1> keiserr : or live CD?
[18:31] <sorto> if I change /etc/hostname do I have to reboot for it to take effect?
[18:31] <Patchak> alexou_, alright... any idea why gftp would crash like that on each attemp,... no errors at all, wrong install or something?
[18:31] <keiserr> sandaru1: no, i have the gusty ordinary desktop CD
[18:31] <alexou_> Patchak, there is inought free space on the server ?
[18:32] <keiserr> sandaru1: Yes the live CD
[18:32] <ailean> When watching vids with Totem, it doesn't override the screensaver/power saving settings.  Has anyone else got this problem / know how to solve it?
[18:32] <Patchak> yes I'm actually importing the files on my comp
[18:32] <stefg> sorto: make sure to change /etc/hosts accordingly. and yes, you have zo reboot
[18:32] <astro76> ailean, it should if totem is full screen
[18:32] <sandaru1> keiserr: then you can't use that to upgrade to gusty.. you'll have to use dist-upgrade.. if you want to upgrade from the Cd, you'll have to download the alternative CD
[18:32] <Patchak> alexou_, the program just closes
[18:32] <Scunizi> astro76, it was kind of a post-facto question. The original /home was the default install, the new /home was my Dapper's orig. /home.  But I noticed that one of my directories has disappeared, Photos (emptied) & Pics (removed/disappeared).
[18:32] <vcool> hi all
[18:32] <ailean> astro76, it is in fs, but still no joy
[18:32] <sandaru1> vcool: hi
[18:32] <vcool> im using Intel(R) Celeron(R) M CPU        520  @ 1.60GHz
[18:33] <vcool> which ubuntu version should i use ?
[18:33] <Cpudan80> vcool: and...?
[18:33] <vcool> 64 bit ? 32 bit ?
[18:33] <Cpudan80> vcool: 32
[18:33] <blkorpheus> how do I reset gnome-appearances-properties?
[18:33] <keiserr> damned, y don't they ship Alternate CDs also
[18:33] <vcool> why ?
[18:33] <astro76> vcool, because that is a 32bit processor
[18:33] <Cpudan80> vcool: Because your processor doesn't support 64
[18:33] <Patchak> alexou_ I think it's still pretty weird that the program just crashes on my install...
[18:34] <vcool> ouuh .. but i can run vista ultimate edition ??
[18:34] <Patchak> any way to make a diagnostic of my drive??
[18:34] <Cpudan80> vcool: Vista ultimate is 32 bit, don't be an idiot

[18:34] <Myrtti> !paste | tyronepolleri
[18:34] <ubotu> tyronepolleri: pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[18:34] <tyronepolleri> sidlet: that the error
[18:34] <Patchak> alexou_, installing now
[18:34] <Myrtti> thank you
[18:34] <vcool> ok then thx
[18:34] <Cpudan80> np
[18:35] <sidlet> tyronepolleri, Err. Okay. Never seen that error before. Sounds like it ran out of RAM for the request? I could be wrong tho
[18:35] <ailean> guys, can someone please help?  The screen keeps switching off while watching movies with totem - it's not overriding the power saving / screen saver settings
[18:35] <stefg> keiserr: don't be too optimistic. upgrades have a certain chance to break your box, and you might run into some of gutsy's regression problems. so make a backup, and reinstall gutsy from scratch. in case you don't like it you can revert to feisty then
[18:35] <sandaru1> Patchak: the best way to check why program crashes is to run the program within the terminal.. go to terminal and type "gftp".. then if you are lucky you'll see some error messages
[18:35] <tyronepolleri> sidlet: i have two GB of ram
[18:35] <AquaFox|Laptop> what is the gpg key for gutsy backports?
[18:35] <AquaFox|Laptop> I don't have it!
[18:35] <alexou_> Patchak, to be sure and to have an error message you can use your console with the command "scp"
[18:35] <dury> I'm in desktop/live cd. I've opened the terminal... how to became as root?
[18:35] <astro76> !sudo | dury
[18:35] <ubotu> dury: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[18:35] <sidlet> How odd
[18:35] <snkmad> how do i restart the audio module? sometimes wine breaks it and i have to reboot ubuntu
[18:35] <kinroad> dury: sudo su
[18:35] <sidlet> you using feisty or gutsy?
[18:35] <Myrtti> dury: sudo -i
[18:36] <sandaru1> tyronepolleri: are you running compiz?
[18:36] <Myrtti> kinroad: tut-tut
[18:36] <vcool> so if im using core 2 duo , can i use 64 bit version ?
[18:36] <tyronepolleri> sandarul: yes
[18:36] <sanguisdex> is there a way to listent to overdrive meda (.odm) files in linux?
[18:36] <Cpudan80> vcool: yep
[18:36] <tyronepolleri> sidlet: gutsy
[18:36] <sandaru1> tyronepolleri: then try "metacity --replace" to disable compiz.. then play the video
[18:36] <drayveal> does anyone know any tweaks for an 8800 GTS in gutsy
[18:36] <drayveal> ?
[18:36] <Pici> vcool: you could, but it will make using some proprietary apps, such as flash, java and sometimes wine a bit of a hassle
[18:37] <mosibfu> drayveal depends what kind of tweaks..
[18:37] <imbecile> #gimp
[18:37] <sandaru1> tyronepolleri: or go to VLC settings to set the rendering type to x11.. then it'll work with compiz
[18:37] <keiserr> sandaru1: i used the update-manager -c and it detected gutsy is available, do you think it is safe to upgrade?
[18:37] <AquaFox|Laptop> what is the gpg key for gutsy backports?
[18:37] <AquaFox|Laptop> I don't have it!
[18:37] <imbecile> oops
[18:37]  * sidlet hugs his AMD X2
[18:37] <keiserr> sandaru1: note thati am runnign alternate
[18:37] <mosibfu> drayveal: i have my 8500GT's tweaked to the max, want my xorg.conf?
[18:37] <tyronepolleri> sandarul: it works with compiz off why?
[18:38] <sandaru1> keiserr: it should work
[18:38] <knoppix> hi all
[18:38] <Patchak> alexou_ you,re sure I can use sftp with filezilla?? I can,t connect to the server at this point, where do I change it??
[18:38] <alexou_> Patchak, $scp -r folder user@host:
[18:38] <drayveal> Mosibfu: Will that xorg.conf work with mine??
[18:38] <fxr_> i cant for the life of me find any help getting my btc9116urf wireless keyboard to recognise keystrokes properly , can anyone help or point me in the right direction, pls and thankyou.. m on feisty
[18:38] <sandaru1> tyronepolleri: look at my last message for you.. VLC settings
[18:38] <Patchak> alexou_, what's that?
[18:38] <mosibfu> drayveal the xorg.conf itself wont, i run SLI, but you can copy the tweaks to your device section ;)
[18:38] <vcool> someone send me an email that gutsy is killing your hdd , is that true ? im using it as my only OS now ...
[18:38] <Cpudan80> !harddrive
[18:38] <keiserr> lol
[18:38] <alexou_> Patchak, you shoul do it whit that command in a shell
[18:38] <ubotu> Partitioning programs: !GParted or QTParted (also "man mkfs" for formatting) - Mounting partitions in Gnome under Dapper: System -> Administration -> Disks - For Edgy, see !fstab and !DiskMounter
[18:39] <Cpudan80> hrm...
[18:39] <sidlet> sandaru1, Resident guru :P thnx for wrapping that vlc issue up for me. i was on google already searching :P
[18:39] <drayveal> Mosibfu will you walk me through it? I'm brand spankin new to ubuntu
[18:39] <ptn107> AquaFox|Laptop: gutsy backports gpg    http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/gutsy-backports/Release.gpg
[18:39] <alexou_> Patchak, you want to copy a folder or a file in the server ?
[18:39] <sandaru1> sidlet: you are welcome :)
[18:39] <tyronepolleri> sandarul: where do i change that? i can not find it
[18:39] <Patchak> alexou_, well I just want to grab a folder and to download it on my comp
[18:40] <Patchak> I just like the GUI like on winscp but I don,t get why gftp crashes every time
[18:40] <ehird`> can anyone hear me?
[18:40] <mosibfu> drayveal: tweaking is kind of hard, but xorg.conf is a text file (sudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf) then you can just copy the tweaks, not that hard
[18:40] <keiserr> Amsn also crashes :p, gui are evil
[18:40] <genii> ehird`: yes you are alive
[18:40] <Cpudan80> That's actually a good question vcool
[18:40] <mosibfu> drayveal: http://pastebin.ca/777825
[18:40] <drayveal> aight
[18:40] <sandaru1> tyronepolleri : preferences -> Video -> Output Modules (Select the advance options at bottom).. then select X11 output module as the output module
[18:40] <ehird`> genii: good, good
[18:41] <ehird`> genii: my internet died
[18:41] <alexou_> Patchak, so use the command whith your server information : scp -r user@severName:/pathOftheFolder .
[18:41] <mosibfu> drayveal: look for Section "Device" and copy all options ;)
[18:41] <Cpudan80> If you're running Gutsy on a laptop, should you fix that HDD problem?
[18:41] <genii> No, K-lined
[18:41] <drayveal> will do
[18:41] <tyronepolleri> sandarul: thank you
[18:41] <keiserr> thanks
[18:41] <keiserr> cya
[18:41] <Patchak> alexou_, hummm I'll try that
[18:41] <mosibfu> drayveal: something like this: Option    "AddARGBVisuals"  "True".... so everything with Option in front from the device section will do
[18:41] <Rageon> how do i connect to a shared folder on a XP machine on my network?
[18:42] <ailean> guys, can someone please help?  The screen keeps switching off while watching movies with totem - it's not overriding the power saving / screen saver settings
[18:42] <cubedsi> is it possible to run dualhead and SLI, every xorg configuration i do doesn't allow it :(
[18:42] <Patchak> it's just frustrating to see that gftp crashes, I think there might be a problem on my end
[18:42] <Rageon> how do i connect to a shared folder on a XP machine on my network?
[18:42] <mosibfu> cubedsi: i have only SLI running, not dual head, so i dont know
[18:42] <vcool> im not sure gutsy killin my hdd, i hear no sound from my hdd, but just a little bit ...
[18:42] <Cpudan80> Rageon: Places --> Network --> Goto (I think?) type smb://server/share
[18:42] <alexou_> Patchak, with filezilla 3.0.0-beta2 i can do sftp
[18:42] <sandaru1> Patchak: did you try running it from terminal and checked for any error messages?
[18:42] <vcool> and how to find out if gutsy killin my hdd
[18:43] <cubedsi> mosibfu: did you just add the SLI auto code or was there more too it, bc my output says interlacing is on when i do that so i think SLI runs with just that code
[18:43] <Patchak> sandaru1, no, just with the visual thing... I'm a new user just passed from win...
[18:43] <Patchak> so command line and alll... ;)
[18:43] <vcool> i luv my laptop more my GF heuheue ...
[18:43] <bslote> General linux question.. Is there a way to get find to ignore binary files?
[18:43] <vcool> more than ...
[18:43] <sidlet> vcool, Dangerous :P
[18:43] <Rageon> its asking me to login... what do i do CpuDan80
[18:43] <vcool> dangerous ?
[18:44] <Cpudan80> Rageon: Type the login info, username is SERVERNAME\user
[18:44] <mosibfu> cubedsi: i first checked both my cards ran the nvidia driver, then i added         Option    "SLI" "SFR" to my Screen section, AFR seems to dislike compiz
[18:44] <sandaru1> Patchak: Applications -> Accessories -> Terminal.. then, type "gtfp".. then, paste the output to pastebin (if there is any output)
[18:44] <cubedsi> mosibfu: what does SFR do?
[18:44] <sandaru1> !pastbin | Patchak
[18:44] <Rageon> what do u mean servername/user dude?
[18:44] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about pastbin - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi

[18:45] <LazyPower> 3rd times a char sandaru1
[18:45] <LazyPower> :)
[18:45] <Stonekeeper> hi. I have 2 soundcards. Each time i boot, it's random which one is the default card. How can i fix this?
[18:45] <genii> ailean: Maybe try this: http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-442150.html
[18:45] <mosibfu> cubedsi: SFR is split frame rendering, AFR is alternate frame rendering, SFR makes every card render half the frame, AFR makes every card run 1 frame at a time, swithcing cards every frame
[18:45] <sandaru1> LazyPower: :P
[18:45] <drayveal> Mosibfu: I have all the options up on that pastebin ... copied, but there are 2 devices... Do I want to use the 8500 device?
[18:45] <LazyPower> hah speaking of typos
[18:45] <snkmad> how do i restart the audio module? sometimes wine breaks it and i have to reboot ubuntu to make it work again....
[18:46] <cubedsi> mosibfu: oh sounds interesting i will try it right now
[18:46] <mosibfu> drayveal: just use the Option stuff, the device sections itself is because i run SLI (2 cards)
[18:46] <Patchak> sandaru1, hummm no error
[18:46] <mosibfu> cubedsi: check http://pastebin.ca/777825 for my SLI xorg.conf
[18:46] <atlfalcons866> i installed pclinux os but i cant boot to it only grub appears with ubuntu
[18:46] <narothepharoh> what are some cool games for kubuntu?
[18:46] <cubedsi> thanks i will check it out
[18:46] <sandaru1> Patchak: it just crashes.. nothing in the terminal?
[18:46] <genii> tuxracer
[18:47] <genii> Also all the quake stuff o course :)
[18:47] <Patchak> hummm when I use the GUI it just crashes but I never use it with the terminal oen
[18:47] <Patchak> open
[18:47] <drayveal> alrighty I have that stuff posted in there
[18:47] <Patchak> sandaru1, Is that what I need to do?? Try and use it while the terminal window is opened???
[18:47] <Patchak> I just type gftp and then use the gui??
[18:48] <sandaru1> narothepharoh : http://linuxgames07.blogspot.com/2007/11/top-ubuntu-linux-games.html
[18:48] <drayveal> Now I have a question for you mosibfu...  are you running gutsy AMD64 by chance?
[18:48] <Patchak> I'll just go with the comand line I guess...
[18:48] <mosibfu> drayveal: i run 32bit gutsy, on an amd 64 bit, dual core cpu
[18:48] <sandaru1> Patchak: you have to type "gftp" in the command line.. then you'll see the gui.. play around it.. when it crashes, if you are lucky.. you'll see some error messages
[18:49] <mosibfu> drayveal: i like 32bit better to start with, less tweaking needed
[18:49] <drayveal> ah ok.... I can't get my splash screen to work at all
[18:49] <sandaru1> Patchak: error messages in the terminal window
[18:49] <atlfalcons866> i reinstalled ubuntu but it didnt detect pclinuxos
[18:49] <lwizardl> what would be a linux replacement for nero?
[18:49] <Patchak> sandaru1, : ok I typed gftp and nothing happened
[18:49] <lwizardl> besides k3b
[18:49] <Pici> !burning | lwizardl
[18:49] <ubotu> lwizardl: CD/DVD Burning software: K3b (KDE), gnomebaker, serpentine, graveman, Nautilus cd burner (Gnome), gtoaster, xcdroast, cdrecord (terminal-based). Burning .iso files: see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BurningIsoHowto
[18:49] <blkorpheus> Any idea as to why compiz from gnome-appearances-properties from menu, claims desktop effects can not be enabled, when there can be enabled, via CLI with either "compiz --replace"' or "gnome-appearances-properties"?
[18:49] <micky82> list
[18:49] <mosibfu> lwizardl: nero has a linux versions nowadays
[18:49] <sandaru1> Patchak: gtfp is running?
[18:49] <Patchak> sandaru1, ok I'll try that and tell ya if I get any errors
[18:49] <Patchak> sandaru1, yeah now it is
[18:50] <lwizardl> mosibfu, i wonder if my legal serial code will work
[18:50] <toresn> by using the terminal, how can i find out what version i'm running of a specific software?
[18:50] <genii> lwizardl: If you like nero why don't you just get the linux nero version?
[18:50] <drayveal> mosibfu: my system turns on, I see the GRUB starting, then I see "Kernal Alive", then the screen blacks out for about 30 seconds, video completely stops going to my monitor, then it will suddenly appear at the login screen
[18:50] <lwizardl> genii, didn't know they had one
[18:50] <drayveal> do you know how to get the splash screen to come up?'
[18:50] <mosibfu> lwizardl: i wouldnt know, but you could always mail nero that u use windows instead of windows, and if u can change the serial for linux one
[18:51] <mosibfu> drayveal: seems like some slight bug with the loading screen, never had that tho
[18:51] <sandaru1> drayveal: did you change any kernel parameters in grub? something like vga=792
[18:51] <toresn> by using the terminal, how can i find out what version i'm running of a specific software?
[18:51] <genii> lwizardl: http://www.nero.com/eng/linux3.html
[18:52] <lwizardl> already downloading it thanks
[18:52] <drayveal> sandaru1: negative... Last time I screwed with the GRUB it hit my OS in the face with a sledge hammer
[18:52] <drayveal> both of them that is
[18:52] <Niculittu> hello, i have a problem: no sound in my acer aspire 9302...can someone help me?
[18:52] <erUSUL> !sound
[18:52] <ubotu> If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3
[18:52] <toresn> nevermind
[18:52] <lwizardl> genii, I'm tired of K3B always reading one blank disc and then me forcing it closed with xkill
[18:53] <Niculittu> thank you, now i try...
[18:53] <sandaru1> drayveal: you may try removing "splash" from the kernel parameters.. then, if you are supposed to see the text.. then, you'll surely it's something to do with framebuffer/vesa drivers
[18:53] <sandaru1> drayveal: not vesa.. vesafb
[18:53] <snkmad> how do i restart the audio module? sometimes wine breaks it and i have to reboot ubuntu to make it work again....
[18:54] <totherdave> lol was about to ask a question but dinner's ready brb :)
[18:54] <drayveal> where do I remove that from? Where is the kernel parameters located? within GRUB?
[18:54] <SpeCon> hey all, WHEN in the MAN page how can i exit there?
[18:54] <SpeCon> ctrl +X doesn't work
[18:55] <Pici> SpeCon: press q
[18:55] <SpeCon> ok pici
[18:55] <drayveal> btw... it does the same thing with the Live CD
[18:55] <sandaru1> drayveal: /boot/grub/menu.lst
[18:55] <karagal> Witam
[18:55] <sandaru1> drayveal: then your vga doesn't support framebuffer.. frankly that's quite strange
[18:55] <SpeCon> i install python-msn package but when i do FIND python-msn it gives me no results WHY
[18:56] <lwizardl> how do i set the auto numlock on
[18:56]  * ArthurArchnix is on his lunch break and thought he'd drop by.
[18:56] <LazyPower> Allo arthur
[18:56] <drayveal> wait a second
[18:56] <sandaru1> SpeCon: python-msn is library rather than an application, isn't it?
[18:56] <Pici> SpeCon: you do know that python-msn isnt a program, right?
[18:56] <SpeCon> sandaru1, yes
[18:56] <drayveal> the Kernel line is like so
[18:56] <SpeCon> dunno
[18:56] <SpeCon> i didn't know that
[18:56] <SpeCon> i tought it was a program
[18:56] <ArthurArchnix> what's the off-topic channel again?
[18:57] <Pici> ArthurArchnix: #ubuntu-offtopic
[18:57] <drayveal> kernel     /vmlinux root=/dev/hda2 ro
[18:57] <Pici> SpeCon: python-msn is a Python client library for the MSN protocol.
[18:57] <ArthurArchnix> Pici: Thanks.
[18:57] <drayveal> shouldn't it include splash at the end of that line?
[18:57] <sandaru1> drayveal: it should by default
[18:57] <SpeCon> Pici, so why would people install that ?
[18:57] <SpeCon> a library what is that exactly
[18:57] <drayveal> well it doesn't by default with me...
[18:58] <dury> I'm in desktop/live cd. I've opened the terminal... I typed as root find /boot/grub/stage1    I got    (hd1,2)   what 's that?
[18:58] <drayveal> if I add that, will it allow the splash screen to show?
[18:58] <SpeCon> when i see Python client msn blabla people would think its a program
[18:58] <Pici> SpeCon: If either a python program that they were using required it (i.e. to connect to msn) or if they were programming something in python to connect to msn.
[18:58] <sandaru1> SpeCon: the applications use functions specified on those
[18:58] <SpeCon> oh pici okay
[18:58] <SpeCon> k sandaru1
[18:58] <SpeCon> the thing is i want MSN messenger but more grapical
[18:58] <sandaru1> drayveal: trail and error :)
[18:58] <toresn> what program could i use to make fetchmail run at set time intervals?
[18:58] <SpeCon> aMSN just sucks from vieuw
[18:58] <SpeCon> view
[18:59] <cox> does anyone know the command to show smb shares on a network?
[18:59] <sandaru1> SpeCon: emesene
[18:59] <SpeCon> sandaru1,  okay lemme see
[18:59] <drayveal> sandaru1 ok, looks like I try... and just to make sure before I do this....
[18:59] <sandaru1> cox: smbclient -L ip
[19:00] <drayveal> should I edit it under the Start Default Options?
[19:00] <cox> sandaru1: i'm sure there is a way to show all shares
[19:00] <drayveal> wait... that last one I posted was an exampe
[19:00] <SpeCon> sandaru1, for example. If i do not use apt-get install because it doesn't find the package. And i want to install it manualy. For example i download it from the web. Is it possible then to install this program (package) from the ubuntu desktop and not with terminal
[19:00] <genii> toresn: cron
[19:00] <SpeCon> if yes explain me how and tell me wich format .gz .tar blabla i need to download
[19:01] <SpeCon> explain me wich is a package so i know that
[19:01] <drayveal> Where in menu.lst do I look for the kernel to change it to splash or off of quiet splash (which some are set to)
[19:01] <sandaru1> SpeCon: if there is a deb file.. then you double click that and install.. if there is a tar/gz/zip file.. most likely you'll have to compile it
[19:01] <SpeCon> sandaru1,  okay very good
[19:02] <SpeCon> so i open a DEB file
[19:02] <SpeCon> and it will install automaticly ?
[19:02] <SpeCon> or i need to click on an INSTALL icon?
[19:02] <toresn> genii: crontab?
[19:02] <sandaru1> SpeCon: you'll see when you open it
[19:02] <SpeCon> okay sandaru1  :)
[19:02] <genii> toresn: Yes, just make an entry that runs the fetchmail command
[19:02] <SpeCon> does ubuntu use GNOME as default because i didn' tsee  kde in the install thing
[19:02] <SpeCon> when i was installing ubuntu
[19:03] <toresn> genii: ok, ty
[19:03] <abhi> how to play the dvd with menu?
[19:03] <genii> toresn: np
[19:03] <sandaru1> SpeCon: but if you are going to keep using ubuntu.. get your hand dirty in the terminal :)
[19:03] <SpeCon> sandaru1,  okay
[19:03] <SpeCon> sandaru1,  the problem is mostly it is a tar.gz file
[19:03] <SpeCon> i know how to install this
[19:04] <SpeCon> tar zxvf file
[19:04] <SpeCon> then make and make install
[19:04] <SpeCon> but then, what do i have to do when a program is installed
[19:04] <SpeCon> and its not in the menu folder
[19:04] <sandaru1> SpeCon: you missed the "./configure"
[19:04] <SpeCon> of my desktop
[19:04] <SpeCon> yeah configure to sorry
[19:04] <SpeCon> :)
[19:04] <SpeCon> how do you use this thenµ
[19:04] <abhi> how to play the dvd with menu?
[19:04] <SpeCon> for example i install emesene for my girl. But she wants an incon on the desktop
[19:04] <drayveal> sandaru1: my Start Default Opens are set as so... ##      kopt_2_6_8=root=/dev/hdc1 ro

[19:04] <drayveal> # kopt=root=UUID=6cc5a988-8f5c-4c30-a814-b02e555905d0 ro
[19:04] <SpeCon> when i install this manualy its not possible for her to understand

[19:11] <ceil420> cheers
[19:11] <sandaru1> aladinsane: that means you just mounted.. there are some mount options.. gmask, umask.. check those
[19:11] <ro3> I just "upgraded" to Gutsy, all fonts are blurry (also happened at last upgrade), how do I "fix" it?
[19:11] <ceil420> for some reason i thought 'dw', but that ain't a command :x

[19:12] <SpeCon> sandaru1,  thats the url
[19:12] <ro3> HELP!
[19:12] <ro3> I just "upgraded" to Gutsy, all fonts are blurry (also happened at last upgrade), how do I "fix" it?
[19:13] <sandaru1> drayveal: try removing both
[19:13] <Kibble> Pici could you join #kibble to give me some pointers?
[19:13] <drayveal> sandaru1: and that will give me an actual splash screen? Theoretically
[19:13] <Tarkus> anyone know whats the fastest, best way for me to refresh my gtk theme after i make changes to the gtkrc file??
[19:13] <SpeCon> sandaru1,  got the url ?
[19:13] <sandaru1> SpeCon: run that as a normal user
[19:13] <SpeCon> i did
[19:13] <SpeCon> doesn't work either
[19:14] <SpeCon> [Errno 13] Permission denied: '/usr/bin/emesene'. Probably you must be root to execute this operation.
[19:14] <sandaru1> drayveal: no that will remove your splash screen..and show you some text... then you'll be able to make sure it's something wrong with your framebuffer drivers..at least that's better than the blank screen :)

[19:17] <drayveal> lemme try with sudo
[19:17] <Exry> Hi! Who can help me with a wierd (for me) problem? Some processes dies suddenly (Eg Firefox, and I may not start it again...) And i can't uppgrade the system. The updater just dissapears or teh uppdationg screen went no text and hangs there for ever... :X Can't see theat something happens...
[19:18] <palbuddy> sorry newbie question again.....any websites that can tell me how to format an external hard drive to ntfs in linux?
[19:18] <drayveal> sandaru1: thanx... Hopefully I will brb and we can further troubleshoot my splash screen
[19:18] <usr13> Exry: You might want to do a memory test.
[19:19] <Exry> usr13:  Ok... how, I haven't doen that in Linux...
[19:19] <aladinsane> sandaru1, yes in my fstab only the drive with xubuntu on it shows up.
[19:19] <aladinsane> isn't there a easy way of just changing the permissions to my other hdd?
[19:19] <aladinsane> do i have to add it in fstab?
[19:19] <ceil420> what's the gnome version of nano? simple shell text editor that's not vim
[19:19] <usr13> Exry: You can update the system from command line:  sudo apt-get update
[19:19] <AceMan> palbuddy: mkfs.ntfs /dev/xxx
[19:19] <palbuddy> in terminal aceman?
[19:20] <Exry> usr13:  Ok, I'll test that. But how can I close the little window with the chugging update? (Thats have hung?) I don't know what process that is ^
[19:20] <Pici> !away > m1ke_outTOlunch (Please see the private messsage from ubotu)
[19:20] <AceMan> palbuddy: yes. need sudo too
[19:20] <palbuddy> thank you, I'll try it right now
[19:21] <ro3> TAKE A LOOK AT THIS, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=3801087
[19:21] <SpeCon> emesene is realy great
[19:21] <SpeCon> grapical :)
[19:21] <SpeCon> tnx guy''''''ssssss :)
[19:21] <AceMan> palbuddy: add -f switch for quick format (i think!)
[19:21] <sandaru1> aladinsane: if you are just mounting the drive.. then try mount options, umask and gid
[19:21] <ArthurArchnix> ceil420: Ubuntu comes with nano installed. It uses gedit as a text editor.
[19:21] <palbuddy> sorry....newbie so 'sudo mkfs.ntfs/dev/whatever -f'?
[19:21] <ceil420> ArthurArchnix, cheers
[19:22] <AceMan> palbuddy: sudo mkfs.ntfs -f /dev/whatever
[19:22] <AQUAg33k> how do you open gparted?
[19:22] <palbuddy> thanks!
[19:22] <AceMan> np
[19:22] <aladinsane> sandaru1: im not sure what u meant with "just mounting", this is a drive that sits in my computer and will stay there till the end of times, and i just want to be able to write to it
[19:22] <usr13> Exry: I don't konw about "chugging update" but you could just restart the Xserver:  Ctrl-Alt-Backspace
[19:23] <AQUAg33k> I know this is a dumb question
[19:23] <sandaru1> aladinsane: can you read the files in that drive somewhere?
[19:23] <ArthurArchnix> AQUAg33k: Assuming its installed, you should be able to find it in your menu.
[19:23] <sandaru1> aladinsane: /media/something?
[19:24] <AQUAg33k> Is it under system?
[19:24] <vja2> Can anyone help with a network card issue?
[19:24] <sandaru1> !ask | vjay2
[19:24] <ubotu> vjay2: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[19:24] <aladinsane> sandaru1: theres no files on t, i just formated/partitioned it with gparted to ext3 from ntfs
[19:24] <marcello> #slip
[19:24] <h4x0r7h1s> umit
[19:24] <AQUAg33k> Im using gnome dosent gnome automaticaly have gparted?
[19:25] <ArthurArchnix> AQUAg33k: I don't have it installed, but it might be there. You can also check under system tools under applications. Hitting Alt+F2 and typing gparted might work as well.
[19:25] <aladinsane> sandaru1: it shows up in nautilus and thunar though, but i cant write to it, it says that i do not have the permissions
[19:25] <ipei> usr13:  Yay, that was a fast and easy way. With chugging  just meant hung process that i couldn't find a english word for ^^
[19:25] <Scunizi> AQUA
[19:25] <Scunizi> AQUAg33k, try sudo apt-get install gparted .. it will either install or say it's installed.
[19:25] <vja2> gotcha: I've got a fairly new Asus A8V-XE with an integrated Rhine-II network card (VIA VT6102). After heavy network activity, it gives the following error: NETDEV WATCHDOG: eth0: transmit timed out
[19:25] <sandaru1> aladinsane: are you going to use that drive everyday or is it for just now?
[19:25] <vja2> followed by "eth0: Transmit timed out, status 0002, PHY status 786d, resetting..." repeatedly
[19:25] <aladinsane> sandaru1: till i die
[19:26] <ubuntu-live> hello
[19:26] <vja2> I filed a bug at the beginning of the month, but there hasn't been any activity on it (it's still labeled "new")
[19:26] <DarkSpirit221> Hi, is there any good screen recording softwaer for ubuntu?
[19:26] <sandaru1> aladinsane: a quick solution would be to go to terminal.. sudo nautilus /media/sdXX
[19:26] <DarkSpirit221> software*
[19:26] <AQUAg33k> :o....i didnt have it installed. ...*slaps self*
[19:26] <ericz> hrm.. i just updated mplayer from update-manager [thnk it was in backports] on 7.04 and now when i right click > open with> mplayer movie player in thunar on xfce, it gives me "Failed to open <file-location>". but if i run gmplayer <file-location> in terminal, it's fine
[19:27] <akincer> vja2: What network device do you have this plugged into?
[19:27] <jeroensurft> is it possible to ignore harddisks at bootup?
[19:27] <sandaru1> aladinsane: anyhow if you are going to use that frequently.. you'll have to add that to fstab
[19:27] <vja2> akincer: it's a linksys wireless
[19:27] <mikebeecham> hi guys
[19:27] <akincer> vja2: Thought so
[19:27] <mikebeecham> can someone help me with installing corerect nvidia drivers?
[19:27] <akincer> vja2: make sure you have the latest firmware. I've seen bizarre behavior on older firmwares that often kick in with heavy loads
[19:27] <usr13> Exry: Actually, if it happens again, I think the process name is update-manager.desktop  You can porbably kill it with  sudo pkill update-manager.desktop
[19:28] <vja2> akincer: I'm using a 3rd party firmware; recommend going back to stock?
[19:28] <sandaru1> aladinsane: if sudo nautilus can't write in that drive.. then that means your drivers doesn't support writing.. install ntfs-3g.. sudo apt-get install ntfs-3g
[19:28] <akincer> vja2: I'm not saying it is the router, but I've seen issues there.
[19:28] <mikebeecham> I'm confused because when I boot up my machine, the nvidia splash pops up.  However, when I go into xorg.conf, it lists my card as a generic card, so I cant change twinview!
[19:28] <Exry> usr13: Ok, it happens every time i thry to use it... But can you please write the update command again? I lost it due I used ctrl+alt+backspace
[19:28] <akincer> vja2: It was stock firmware I saw the problem, not third party though
[19:28] <mikebeecham> any help would be great
[19:29] <akincer> vja2: If it isn't too much trouble, I would suggest that to rule the router out
[19:29] <usr13> Exry: I'm sorry, it's just update-manager  sudo pkill update-manager
[19:29] <vja2> akincer: fair enough. If it's *not* the router, any other ideas? (for instance, I only see the problem with this network card, and I have other machines wired & wireless on the network)
[19:29] <jeroensurft> could somebody help me whit bootup config or something like that ?
[19:29] <Cpudan80> Hello all
[19:29] <Cpudan80> I'm going to install Gutsy on my IBM T42
[19:29] <vja2> it's not; I'll definitely try that as a troubleshooting step
[19:30] <mikebeecham> anyone be able to help?
[19:30] <Cpudan80> Should I do the HDD fix that's been posted on line? To prevent excessive wear and tear on the drive?
[19:30] <magnetron> !anyone | mikebeecham
[19:30] <akincer> vja2: I would suggest putting in another well known and inexpensive card to rule out some other component so you KNOW it is the network card
[19:30] <AQUAg33k> Would a drive show up in gparted if it is unmounted?
[19:30] <Exry> usr13:  I just ment that you said I should try to upgrade thou the terminal... I confuse my self.-.
[19:30] <ubotu> mikebeecham: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[19:30] <Tarkus> anyone know how i can call a color chooser application window?
[19:31] <magnetron> AQUAg33k: yes
[19:31] <akincer> vja2: after that, I would suggest taking issue with the manufacturer
[19:31] <akincer> vja2: It might not be a driver issue
[19:31] <usr13> Exry: sudo apt-get upgrade  apt-get update-manager
[19:31] <aladinsane> sandaru1: why should i install anything with ntfs? i just removed nfts from it and am now running ext3, and how do i add it to fstab. I mean the drive is totally empty right now, i can do whatever necceassary to get it to work, and as i said this is a drive that will forever be a part of my system

I once hit my PC due to it's noise, and from that day I had to replug the keyboard every time after booting. But now it refuses to work even after replugging it - in recovery mode too. Does anyone have any ideas about it?
[19:32] <usr13> Exry: Is it a pretty primitave system? or...?
[19:32] <vja2> There was a bug opened on the kernel bug tracker with identical symptoms, but it was closed as REJECTED/INVALID. I e-mailed the contact about it
[19:32] <Ahmad_> anticonstitution , xubuntu-fr

[19:34] <mikebeecham> ubotu: sorry about that...ok.  I want to be able to enable twinview through the nvidia drivers.  I have enabled restricted drivers, but when I go into xorg.conf, it lists my card as a generic card, with no nvidia or twinview options....what am I doing wrong?
[19:34] <ShanghaiScott> anyone able to run vmware server 1.0.4 on ubuntu 7.10?
[19:34] <mosibfu> mikebeecham: ubotu is a bot lol
[19:34] <Tarkus> anyone know how i can call a color chooser application window?
[19:34] <mikebeecham> :S
[19:34] <ShanghaiScott> vmware server installs fine, but then won't run
[19:34] <tussey> are there any linux apps that can read DAAP (shared itunes music) in iTunes 7?
[19:34] <Exry> usr13:  tested again, and it didn't get that error... Wierd :/
[19:34] <ShanghaiScott> always says I need to run vmware-config.pl
[19:34] <vja2> I think I can rule out bad cable & bad port in router. other devices have no problems in the same port.
[19:34] <Myrtti> tussey: sure
[19:35] <mikebeecham> mosibfu: : sorry about that...ok.  I want to be able to enable twinview through the nvidia drivers.  I have enabled restricted drivers, but when I go into xorg.conf, it lists my card as a generic card, with no nvidia or twinview options....what am I doing wrong?
[19:35] <mikebeecham> :)
[19:35] <tussey> itunes 7, not itunes 6

[19:35] <leku> hey
[19:35] <leku> how do I add my windows xp partition to grub?
[19:35] <mosibfu> mikebeecham: you will need to add those options, and the nvidia driver
[19:35] <mosibfu> !nvidia
[19:35] <leku> after i installed ubuntu it didn't add it automatically
[19:35] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[19:35] <vja2> I'm leaning towards weird NIC/router interaction. I'll likely try stock firmware & a PCI network card.
[19:35] <akincer> vja2: If the symptom is heavy load and you don't see the problem with other devices, the problem would seem to lean towards the computer. If you see the symptom with other devices, it obviously points to the router
[19:36] <mikebeecham> mosibfu: but when I boot up my machine, I have the nvidia splash screen appear
[19:37] <AQUAg33k> never mind I found it in gparted. I was looking under the wrong tab
[19:37] <mosibfu> mikebeecham: then the nvidia driver is installed fine, now just the twinview stuff, wich is also on a ubuntu wiki

[19:51] <aladinsane> I just changed the file system on one of my drive from Ntfs to Ext3 with Gparted, and now i want to be able to use this drive in Xubuntu but Thunar says i do not have the permissions to write to it, how do i change these permissions?
[19:51] <aladinsane> I can see it in Thunar and in Nautilus..
[19:51] <aladinsane> And this is a drive that will forever be in the system, NOT just a temporary mount.

[19:52] <cedar> anyone know of a 100/1000 usb card supported in the ubuntu livecd? please? :-)
[19:52] <thruxton`> tuxix: should be in the man page, -key-fifo-size or something
[19:53] <Kl4m> aladinsane: you mean you don't have permission to write to the mount point?
[19:53] <Kl4m> Or the files on it if there are some
[19:54] <staar2> huh what program should i use for CanonScan LIDE 20 ? under KDE
[19:55] <zimon> staar2, try kooka
[19:56] <Grozo> hello
[19:56] <staar2> Kooka is best for scanning ?
[19:56] <zimon> staar2, maybe you're lucky .. i never got my canon scanner to work
[19:56] <levander> Does anyone know where the doc's are on how to configure xorg.conf for the open source nvidia driver?
[19:57] <zimon> staar2, if you don't like it, use xsane instead .. none of them is "best", cause they both use sane
[19:57] <Grozo> is it possible to ignore a hard disk /dev/hda1 ? because of my raid 0 ?
[19:57] <aladinsane> Kl4m: In Thunar and Nautilus the options to create new file/folder is grayed out, and when i try to copy a file to it it gives me this: The path "/home/lewoin/todo" does not refer to a directory. That is i can see the drive in both Tunar and Nautilus but i cant use it, It's also empty after the formatting so i do not know if i can read a file from it. But nevertheless i just want the permissions to it as i have to my other drive with Xubunt
[19:57] <tuxix> thruxton`: thanks for your help, i just quickly read the manpage and i found it's a configuration file to edit
[19:58] <thruxton`> tuxix: cool!

[19:59] <tabber> hi, i have beryl+compiz working properly, the only thing now is that whenever i choose the "window picker" effect, beep media player shows as 3 separate windows instead of 1. anyone knows how to fix this?
[19:59] <tabber> i tried xmms with the same result
[19:59] <eichenwald> tabber: are you using xmms
[20:00] <Kl4m> aladinsane: OK how is your partition mounted? Using which GUI tools / console command(s)?
[20:00] <tabber> eichenwald: I was and i thought it happened because xmms is written on GTK+1 but with bmp the same thinkg happens
[20:01] <Grozo> could somebody help me ? with ignoring a RAID array on my harddisk ?

[20:01] <nananuu> hi can U say me how can i get back my Desktop panel?
[20:01] <eichenwald> tabber: well the playlist and equalizer are sort of additional windows, I know what you are talking about, I don't know how to fix this though
[20:02] <tabber> eichenwald: :( it's kind of annoying i'll see if I can find a solution for it, thanks anyways
[20:03] <chill> How can i backup my banshee library? i dont want to lose the ratings or played count
[20:03] <aladinsane> Kl4m: good question, i have absolutely no idea, this drive, as i said earlier, had NTFS on it earlier, which worked out great, i could access it from Xubuntu with no problem. All i did just now was to use Gparted to replace Ntfs with Ext3, and after that i couldnt write to it anymore, i can still see it though. I have done absolutely nothing else
[20:03] <Sajes> I need a little help; http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/45144/ . But if I use 'sudo apt-get install irssi', it says irssi isn't found. Or some error.
[20:03] <self_up> hey all - current goal is freezing to edge rails, so i believe i need subversion first - is that much correct?
[20:04] <RoAkSoAx> Sajes try: apt-cache search irssi
[20:04] <ikonia> self_up: what are you talking about ?
[20:04] <self_up> oh dear
[20:04] <fxr_> hi where can i find the php5 exectuable path?
[20:04] <self_up> i'm installing ruby on rails on a fresh install of ubuntu
[20:04] <ikonia> ok and ?
[20:04] <Sajes> RoAkSoAx: I did. It just took me to a next line as if I pressed enter without typing anything. So I guess it didn't find anything.
[20:05] <Fishfoot> anyone know of burning software, or a simple way (maybe a script?) to queue up multiple discs (with different files) to be burned?
[20:05] <freepenguin> hello everybody
[20:05] <Sajes> RoAkSoAx: It's trying to get it's updates from CD I think.
[20:05] <pipelineaudio> hey paranoid nutjobs, whats with all the kicking to change ports and whatever?
[20:05] <pipelineaudio> everytime I go to ubuntu ops it says Im ok
[20:05] <usr13> Fishfoot: I use k3b
[20:05] <Fishfoot> something where I just tell it all the files to be burned and it does it, asking for new discs as needed, would be nice
[20:05] <ikonia> Sajes: remove the cdrom from your source.list
[20:05] <Kibble_> pici you there?
[20:05] <self_up> and, like i said, i want to freeze to edge rails, like so   rake rails:freeze:edge revision=8129
[20:05] <RoAkSoAx> Sajes: try editing /etc/apt/sources.list and remove cdrom from there
[20:05] <Weems> IKm having trouble with ym dvd drive, I put in a dvd but nothing shows up in the file manager
[20:05] <Weems> im*

[20:06] <Fishfoot> DVD-R

[20:06] <Weems> well its a dvd
[20:06] <Weems> yeah
[20:06] <Weems> ive tried a cd too
[20:06] <Fishfoot> oh, not me ;)

[20:06] <nananuu> how can I get bac my Desktop bars these two who are on Desktop?
[20:06] <kane77> how do I remove grub from the boot sector of a disk?
[20:06] <usr13> Weems: Weems You get the same behaviour from a data CD?
[20:06] <ikonia> kane77: over write it
[20:06] <Weems> yeah
[20:06] <Oggu> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/45142/ It seams that i dont have locales. It is a "mini" version of ubuntu on a VPS
[20:06] <self_up> of course i'm there too, just poking around for any ubuntu specifics, but thanks, i'll try there
[20:07] <kane77> ikonia, with what?
[20:07] <usr13> Weems: What version are you on?
[20:07] <ikonia> kane77: what ever you want
[20:07] <ikonia> kane77: a disk with out a boot sector is pointless, so "something" has to go on there
[20:07] <Weems> 7.10
[20:07] <ikonia> like an XP bootloader, or lilo or a boot loader of your choice
[20:07] <ader10> Does anybody have an aero theme for gtk-window-decorator that works with compiz?
[20:08] <ian|> Is there any manual install howto? (Using debootstrap)?
[20:08] <usr13> Weems: And it's fully updated?
[20:08] <ikonia> ian|: manual install for what ?
[20:08] <Weems> pretty sure
[20:08] <ian|> for an ubuntu system
[20:08] <ian|> ubuntu server
[20:08] <jcg> I'm using Ubuntu AMD64 and Firefox tends to crash when using Flash. Anyone know if there's a fix for this?
[20:08] <ikonia> ian|: thats quite a long process, I'm not aware of a guide
[20:09] <Weems> 0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.
[20:09] <ikonia> jcg: no, flash doesn't work on amd64 and gnash the 64bit open source alternative is still in development
[20:09] <Sajes> Hmm. I figured it out. None of the repositories were enabled except the cdrom ones. Now It's updating and working. Thanks guys :)
[20:09] <ian|> ikonia: Using debootstrap was quite simple, but only the most important packages were installed.
[20:09] <nananuu> plzzz help I lost my bars on the Desktop... how to get them back?
[20:09] <aladinsane> Trying again,
[20:09] <aladinsane> I just changed the file system on one of my drive from Ntfs to Ext3 with Gparted, and now i want to be able to use this drive in Xubuntu but Thunar says i do not have the permissions to write to it, how do i change these permissions?I can see it in Thunar and in Nautilus..And this is a drive that will forever be in the system, NOT just a temporary mount.
[20:09] <ikonia> aladinsane: chown or chmod it to the correct users/groups/permissions
[20:09] <ian|> And i think a lot of configuration work has not been done and must be started manually.
[20:09] <ikonia> aladinsane: use sudo to act as root
[20:09] <ader10> Does anybody have an aero theme for gtk-window-decorator that works with compiz?
[20:10] <ikonia> ian|: thats a fair assumption
[20:10] <usr13> Weems: If it's a Movie or Music CD, that is normal, (nothing will show in the file manager), but try a data CD, (like the Ubuntu CD), and see what happens.
[20:10] <jcg> ikonia, Flash works using Nspluginwrapper on 64-bit Ubuntu.
[20:10] <Weems> ok
[20:10] <mindframe-> how do i flush the dns cache?
[20:10] <Oggu> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/45142/ It seams that i dont have locales. It is a "mini" version of ubuntu on a VPS
[20:10] <ikonia> jcg: thats still a fudge that can cause bugs
[20:10] <ikonia> jcg: ndis is not a solution for flash, drivers, plugins anything
[20:10] <ian|> ikonia: Something like a check list would be nice - but google for "debootstrap ubuntu howto" (or similar) does not gain a lot of useful results
[20:11] <usr13>  mindframe- Server's dns cache?
[20:11] <kane77> ikonia, I only ask because last when I installed ubuntu and the bootsector had already grub something got messed up and windows didn't boot...
[20:11] <ikonia> ian|: I'm not aware of a guide
[20:11] <ikonia> kane77: most likley the menu.lst
[20:11] <jcg> ikonia, Can I install 32-bit Firefox and use the Flash without Nspluginwrapper?
[20:11] <ader10> Does anybody have an aero theme for gtk-window-decorator that works with compiz?
[20:11] <ikonia> jcg: you can but thats a large ammount of work and effort, may as well just use 32bit ubuntu unless you have a genuine reason to use 64bit
[20:12] <aladinsane> ikonia: ok sounds like a soultion i want, could u give me a hint? my drive is: dev/sdc1 Mountpoint: media/disk-1
[20:12] <ikonia> ader10: you may find better help asking on the forum than posting every 30 seconds

[20:14] <usr13> Weems, Ok, run gxine

[20:15] <shaka1> Anybody here, know how to help me install a broadcomm chipset w-lan card?
[20:15] <zimon> ian|, why don't you just unplug the other drives and install ubuntu server?
[20:15] <sy135> that means, is there a difference if you want to use the configuration of ubuntu studio in ubuntu in the way off the install order?

[20:16] <Weems> usr13: yeah doing that now
[20:16] <jcg> ikonia, I don't why it won't boot, I tried using the "noapic nolapic vga=792" and still nothing.

[20:20] <mborges> alguem conhece sobre zend guard
[20:20] <jimjam> ian| Ah, right, fstab, too
[20:20] <EdgEy_> what package is Xlib.h contained in ?
[20:20] <shaka1> Could somebody possibly help me setup a w-lan card based on a broadcomm chipset
[20:20] <EdgEy_> tried installing xserver-xorg-dev

[20:21] <thingummywut> hi. i'm using a ssh connection and it the char encoding isn't working properly. what can i do?
[20:21] <ian|> jimjam: However, I you forget it, you will end in a rescue shell after init where it is also quite easy to change the fstab. (Just do a 'mount -o remount -rw /')
[20:21] <thingummywut> my PC uses UTF-8, the other uses Latin-1
[20:22] <jimjam> ian| You certainly sound knowledgeable :P
[20:22] <stroyan> EdgEy_:  libx11-dev contains usr/include/X11/Xlib.h    In general, you can use the apt-file package and "apt-file search file"  for finding a package that contains a file name.  (You need to update to get fresh data.)

[20:32] <poningru_> yes
[20:32] <poningru_> usr13, yes
[20:32] <stroyan> kakoonia:  You don't really want to force low memory usage.  Run the 'free' command and see how much memory is used for "cache".  That is file data cached in otherwise free memory.  You should be happy to have it.

[20:36] <kakoonia> stroyan : where is the cached data? /tmp?
[20:36] <usr13> ExryWin: Have you tried that?
[20:36] <stroyan> kakoonia:  The file system cache is holding data from all sorts of files that you have written or read.  It is not in a particular part of your filesystem.  You can use writes to /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches to make recent kernels flush the cached data.  But you normally don't want to do that.
[20:37] <usr13> ExryWin: DO:  top
[20:37] <poningru_> brandon_, make sure opera is using the direct connect and no proxy
[20:37] <MartinW> Can I use the Debain lenny cd's as a repo for Ubuntu? Or will things break?
[20:37] <poningru_> brandon_, or whatever connection you are using
[20:37] <stroyan> kakoonia:  See "man 5 proc" for some documentation of /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches.
[20:37] <ExryWin> usr13: No, I can't. I waited about 20min
[20:37] <usr13> ExryWin: and see if you are simply running out of system resources.

[20:38] <sparr_w> after upgrade to gutsy i have printing problems.  i have added my printer anew, and when i print the test page (successfully) i get the following in my cups logs, no other apps will print at all, they seem to work but nothing comes out of the printer.  http://rafb.net/p/4KJ4J869.html
[20:38] <ompaul> MilitantPotato,  which is CTRL + D
[20:38] <stroyan> kakoonia:  It is reasonable to use memory to cache data.  It is much faster to access than a file system or swap device.
[20:38] <amonkey> poningru, where can i find the definitions of all the different governors
[20:39] <shaka1> how come windows isn't being found
[20:39] <Em3raldMcSquizzy> Where do I find the scripts folder in Nautilus?  I thought it was ~/.nautilus or something.
[20:39] <shaka1> for bootup?
[20:39] <stroyan> kakoonia:  Page cache memory is first on the list of places to get more memory from if free memory runs really low.  If the page is 'clean' meaning that it does not need to be written to disk, then it is very quick to release and reuse.

[20:43] <shaka1> Em3raldMcSquizzy, : Doesn't show all my drives
[20:44] <Samaseon> another question: how do i find out the ubuntu version in a running system?
[20:44] <Arelis___> Guys, i prefer KDE over GNOME, but Ubuntu... just has more "support" for GNOME. The list of applications, the bugfixes (adept oftenly crashes, and compiz-fusion shows white lines around everything (kde-window-decorator), and the devteam for Ubuntu is bigger, much bigger.. but, KDE 4 comes out next year and i'm kinda 'worried' (not really) that when i use it, it's not stable at all. Although i really prefer KDE. so which should i choose? Oh,
[20:44] <Arelis___> and, i've noticed that in my previous install, when i boot up gnome it sometimes looks like it takes a minute, but i'd say 15 seconds or so. And applications open slowly too. I don't want that to happen with the new install. And, for a 3 year old (or so) computer, what applications should i use instead of Openoffice, firefox, and the whole bunch? And, if i install such a custom desktop, what will happen if i try to upgrade to Hardy (when
[20:44] <Arelis___> it's released) and will i have to install ubuntu-desktop, thus installing GNOME in the process?
[20:44] <Samaseon> (e.g. 6.06 or 7.10)
[20:44] <shaka1> shows my external hard drive
[20:44] <Em3raldMcSquizzy> shaka1: that's strange indeed. ... /me ponders for a minute
[20:44] <Enselic> Samaseon: System -> About Ubuntu

[20:44] <ExryWin> usr13: Ok, hold on, I try to do what u said. I'll be back soon
[20:45] <usr13> ExryWin: Ctrl-Alt-F1
[20:45] <usr13> ExryWin: sudo pkill gdm  and then sudo pkill X  and then  sudo apt-get upgrade
[20:45] <stroyan> kakoonia:  So only about 300MB of your ram is 'used', and 260MB 'cached', and 43% is useless 'free' RAM.  It don't really see a problem.  Using RAM isn't an issue unless the system is slowed down by swapping, or when allocations actually fail.
[20:45] <Ore4444> Hi there. How do I start Compiz on the Ubuntu live CD?
[20:45] <Em3raldMcSquizzy> shaka1: typically we try to avoid that because others need to learn.  Unfortunately, I have to go to the bank for a meeting in 15 minutes.  However, there are tutorials on the 'net that are easy to follow.  Try googling something like GRUB manual windows help ... sorry I couldn't stay ...
[20:45] <whabo>  helppppp i deleted the panel for my minimized applications..... HOW do i get it back? for make my main panel with teh APPLICations>places etc... be my main panel with the minimized applications....... thx
[20:45] <void^> kakoonia: cached ram is equal to free ram, truly free ram is a waste of money. windows does the same, just doesn't make it all that obvious.

[20:48] <Enselic> jimbo8543: oh misread your question
[20:49] <taz_> im wondering it will work ?/ remote desktop enter to xp win ?? because my friend need help. so how i can enter his pc ??
[20:49] <Enselic> @ Jimmy
[20:49] <usr13> Jimmey: cp -ar /home/james/ /media/hdd1/blends/
[20:49] <Enselic> usr13: um no
[20:49] <usr13> Jimmey: r is for recusive
[20:49] <usr13> Enselic: ?
[20:49] <evil_tech> does the live cd have a username and password?
[20:49] <Enselic> usr13: that will copy his whole home dir
[20:49] <Jimmey> Sorry, I temporarily left, can you repeat usr13?
[20:49] <Ghotler> is there any hungarian ?? van itt magyar?
[20:50] <usr13> Enselic: Isn't that what he wanted to do?
[20:50] <Myrtti> !hu
[20:50] <ubotu> Magyar nyelvű segítséget az #ubuntu-hu csatornán talál
[20:50] <Enselic> usr13: nope
[20:50] <kazol3> Can someone help me with lm-sensors?
[20:50] <Ghotler> ködzönöm
[20:50] <Enselic> Jimmey: cp /home/jimmy/*.blend /media/hdd1/blends
[20:51] <amonkey> so i installed cpufreq to try and configure my cpu throttling, and now my cpu has *stopped* throttlign at all. i removed the package and its still stuck at max, any ideas?
[20:51] <kaosah> Any help on Realtek hd audio drivers?  It's the only thing that didn't work after the most recent install of ubuntu.
[20:51] <usr13> Enselic: Oh, I see... sorry
[20:51] <Jimmey> Enselic, the .blend files are all in separate folders, and I don't know which ones.
[20:51] <stroyan> kakoonia:  I will confess that there are a couple of corner cases where cached ram is actually not available to be freed.  System V shared memory objects and tmpfs file system data are reported as part of the 'cached' memory values.  Those actually need to be swapped out to a swap device to be reclaimed.  It is a rare corner case that those would be a real issue.
[20:51] <Enselic> Jimmey: cp `find . -name '*.blend'` /media/hdd1/blender
[20:51] <Enselic> Jimmey: cp `find ~ -name '*.blend'` /media/hdd1/blender
[20:51] <Enselic> sorry
[20:52] <Enselic> Jimmey: you can run    find ~ -name '*.blend'   to see that it gets the right files
[20:52] <Enselic> before letting cp loose on the output
[20:53] <usr13> Jimmey: cp -ar /home/james/*.blend* /media/hdd1/blends/
[20:53] <beeja1> welcome
[20:53] <lastelement0> hey everyone, is there a way to restore the default panel on the bottom of the screen?
[20:53] <blagster> hi all
[20:53] <Enselic> lastelement0: rightclick on the top one and pick New Panel
[20:54] <beeja1> is it posisible to find help with wifi and networmanager?
[20:54] <Enselic> beeja1: not unless you tell us the problem :)
[20:54] <lastelement0> Enselic, how can i set it as the default one when first installed?
[20:54] <blagster> dvgrab keeps sending me "Error: no camera exists"
[20:54] <lastelement0> like having the default options on it
[20:55] <Jimmey> usr13, Enselic, sorry, I should elaborate - I've just run a filesystem recovery which has created several folders in my /home/ that are only readable as root. In these folders are my .blend files, but I don't know which folders they're in, I'm pretty sure it's random.
[20:55] <blagster> modules *1394 loaded, rights ok, but nothing happens. Any clue ?
[20:55] <kakoonia> stroyan: i see.. well.. i dont know why i gave my swap partition such big space.. (not that big, but still) 2gb.. i cant see it uses it. and i was wondering if there are cases which swap space is preferable over RAM.. ..
[20:55] <Enselic> Jimmey: well run find as root then
[20:55] <Ahmad> lastelement0 . which options r u serching for ! u can just add them to the pannel
[20:56] <kazol3> How do I search for installed packages? Is it dpkg ...something?
[20:56] <zimon> amonkey, after the install the governor is set to performance
[20:56] <Enselic> lastelement0: http://www.celsius1414.com/node/878
[20:56] <Jimmey> Enselic, running find as root only produces the quit.blend in the /root/ directory :-(
[20:56] <Enselic> Jimmey: replace ~ with /home/jimmy
[20:56] <kane77> how do I make conky start at startup?
[20:56] <lastelement0> Ahmad id like to have the options that were default for the bottom panel
[20:56] <Enselic> kane77: look into System -> Preferences -> Sessions
[20:56] <Jimmey> Enselic, genius.
[20:57] <Enselic> Jimmey: :)
[20:57] <beeja1> enselic: when i strat ubuntu my wifi does not start, i go to /etc/network/interfaces and unhash settings, then ifup wlan0, my network starts, but i can see nothing in networkmanager; then i hash wlan0 setting in /etc/network/interfaces and network manager is working ok
[20:57] <stroyan> kakoonia:  The only situation where swap is preferable is when you have too much data to afford the RAM to hold it.  (Or you just can't fit that much RAM in a system.)  But swap is only  practical if most of you data goes unaccessed for long periods of time.  Actively using swap is very slow.
[20:57] <kane77> Enselic, well.. yes, I did, but it doesn't display.. I guess it needs to be executed later...
[20:57] <marcioapf> if i put some mp3 files into burn:/// , will they be burnt so that i can listen to them on any cd player?
[20:57] <Enselic> beeja1: you can   sudo pkill NetworkManager   and then   sudo NetworkManager --no-daemon   to get clues
[20:58] <kane77> Enselic, like wait for all the stuff to start and to be run only then...
[20:58] <Enselic> kazol3: Synaptic can do it no?
[20:59] <Enselic> kane77: sorry but I lost context, what am I helping you with?
[20:59] <kazol3> Enselic: Using the terminal.
[20:59] <kane77> Enselic, conky on startup
[20:59] <Enselic> ah right
[20:59] <kazol3> I hate using the GUI.
[20:59] <ata4ix> can i setup xnview program to ubuntu amd64?
[21:00] <kane77> Enselic, I had the same problem with screenlets.. when I had all of them start at the same time some of them didn't start...
[21:00] <kakoonia> stroyan: so the system determines which of my data is unaccessed for a long period of time, and by that.. it throws it to the Swap?
[21:00] <lastelement0> Thanks Enselic that worked
[21:00] <Ongaku> how do you mount .iso files in this? I´m installing Oblivion on here
[21:00] <Enselic> kane77: then make a script that execute the dependent-sensitive ones in the right order
[21:00] <Ahmad> lastelement0 . after u added the new panel , right click the panel and select add  tp panel
[21:01] <Enselic> !iso > Ongaku
[21:01] <Enselic> !iso > Ensellic
[21:01] <Enselic> !iso > Enselic
[21:01] <lastelement0> Ahmad, thanks but Enselic gave me the fix i needed
[21:01] <Ongaku> enselic: thx
[21:01] <stroyan> kakoonia:  If there isn't any free RAM or freeable cache, then something will be pushed out  to swap.  The OS has algorithms that try to select 'least recently used' memory for swapping out.
[21:01] <Ongaku> lol now the only problem is getting to run properly :P
[21:01] <hooded> os[Linux 2.6.22-14-generic i686] distro[Debian lenny/sid] cpu[1 x Intel(R) Pentium(R) 4 CPU 1.60GHz @ 1.61GHz] mem[Physical : 1011MB, 69.0% free] disk[Total : 945.76GB, 66.60% Free] video[nVidia Corporation NV44A [GeForce 6200]] sound[]
[21:02] <Enselic> Ongaku: have you checked out appdb.winehq.org?
[21:02] <beeja1> Enselic: when in interfaces file settings are hashed - then nm does not see wlan0 at all; thena i start manually wlan0; and nm sees wlan0 when i hash setting in interfaces
[21:02] <Ongaku> enselic: yeah, but Oblivion has alot of issues playing in Wine...just will have to work around it
[21:02] <whabo> guys i have a question...... how do you add a trash can and ur computer folder and everything u regularly use on ur desktop ... thank you
[21:02] <kane77> Enselic, something like sleep 10; conky?
[21:02] <demon_spork> I have accidentally messed up the MBR of a hard drive and I would like to recover the NTFS partition on the drive.  What utility could I use from the livecd to accomplish this goal?
[21:02] <kakoonia> stroyan: alrighty then! thanks alot bro.. appriciate it.
[21:02] <Ongaku> enselic: sound etc...which is the best part of the game lol...but I guess thats what I get for having onboard sound :P
[21:03] <tester__> how can I install vista drivers?
[21:03] <MilitantPotato> Any Kubuntu ops in here? Tester was spamming
[21:03] <Ongaku> tester_ : go back to XP lol drivers are a pain with Vista :p
[21:03] <Myrtti> MilitantPotato: try -ops
[21:04] <kakoonia> now, someone knows how do i install avant-window-navigator?
[21:04] <beeja1> enselic: this do not work for mee -at the begginig nm does not know that wlan0 existt
[21:04] <Enselic> kane77: for example
[21:04] <MilitantPotato> Myrtti: in what context?
[21:05] <kakoonia> now, someone knows how do i install avant-window-navigator? or knows about a good wiki ? cause i tried to install it, and when i tried to run it --> ("Segmentation fault: (core dumped)")
[21:05] <Myrtti> MilitantPotato: irc channel
[21:05] <MilitantPotato> i did, it didn't output anything
[21:06] <Myrtti> MilitantPotato: nvm, I'm tooo tired
[21:07] <MilitantPotato> Myrtti: sorry to be a pain :)
[21:07] <Myrtti> MilitantPotato:  it's just me ;-)
[21:08] <Myrtti> It's 11pm here, way past my bed time
[21:08] <chimp> I installed ubuntu on a ibm T41 laptop yesterday, and it has a few issues, firstly When it boots, it takes about 5-6mins and doesnt show any loading screen, after you see the grub load it just is totally black until the login screen just apears
[21:08] <Maenad> is it really easy to use Xubuntu as a web/file/DNS server?
[21:09] <tester__> yes Maenad
[21:09] <Enselic> Maenad: just as easy as Ubuntu
[21:09] <Myrtti> Maenad: fairly easy yes
[21:09] <Enselic> Maenad: i.e peace of cake
[21:09] <Myrtti> Maenad: ^
[21:09] <Enselic> haha, peace of cake
[21:09] <Enselic> hilarous
[21:09] <MilitantPotato> xfce is a great DTM
[21:10] <Maenad> dtm?
[21:10] <Maenad> oh
[21:11] <kakoonia> avant-window-navigator anybody?
[21:11] <MilitantPotato> desktop manager
[21:11] <MilitantPotato> maybe they're called X managers?
[21:11] <tester__> Kakoonia: not for me.
[21:12] <Ragewarp> does anyone know how to enable direct rendering
[21:12] <Niteye> how can i have some commands run at boot (i have a small script that sets my iptables rules and the motd and i want it to be run as root a few seconds after boot time, automatically)
[21:12] <MilitantPotato> Ragewarp: what card and drivers?
[21:13] <Ragewarp> ive got 2 nvidia 7600gs cards with whatever restricted driver came with ubntu when i installed
[21:13] <Ragewarp> what command do i use to check my driver
[21:13] <MilitantPotato> Niteye: /etc/init.d/ i believe
[21:13] <MilitantPotato> Ragewarp: glxinfo | grep vender
[21:14] <MilitantPotato> glxinfo | grep vendor
[21:14] <Maenad> is there a guide to set up Xubuntu as a web/file/DNS server?
[21:14] <tyler_2> ssh error reads: WinSCP: this is end-of-file:0
[21:14] <Ragewarp> nothing happened when i typed glxinfo | grep vender in the terminal
[21:14] <usr13> Ragewarp: grep Nvidia /etc/X11/xorg.conf  ;  grep nv /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[21:14] <MilitantPotato> yea i made a type-o
[21:14] <MilitantPotato> glxinfo | grep vendor
[21:14] <MilitantPotato> glxinfo | grep version
[21:15] <MilitantPotato> to see if you'r using direct rendering do glxinfo | grep direct
[21:15] <Ragewarp> i get this
[21:15] <Ragewarp> server glx version string: 1.4
[21:15] <Ragewarp> client glx version string: 1.4
[21:15] <Ragewarp> GLX version: 1.4
[21:15] <Ragewarp> OpenGL version string: 1.4 (2.1.1 NVIDIA 100.14.19)
[21:15] <MilitantPotato> you're using nvidia drivers :)
[21:15] <MilitantPotato> what does glxinfo | grep direct
[21:16] <usr13> Ragewarp: grep Nvidia /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[21:16] <Ragewarp> it just says direct rendering : no
[21:16] <MilitantPotato> I take it you're using Compiz Fusion then
[21:16] <usr13> Ragewarp: grep nv /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[21:17] <Ragewarp> nothing comes up when i type that usr13
[21:17] <Ragewarp> and yes im using compiz
[21:17] <MilitantPotato> Compiz sets indrect
[21:17] <Ragewarp> let me guess, thats a problem?
[21:17] <usr13> Ragewarp: which one?:  nv or Nvidia ?
[21:17] <MilitantPotato> If you disable desktop effects and re-login
[21:17] <MilitantPotato> you'll have direct rendering
[21:18] <MilitantPotato> well, ctrl+alt+backspace
[21:18] <usr13> Ragewarp: grep nv /etc/X11/xorg.conf     [what does that say?]
[21:18] <tester__> vista is better than ubuntu?
[21:18] <albech> tester__: no
[21:18] <albech> tester__: its A LOT better
[21:18] <albech> tester__: and apples taste better than oranges
[21:19] <tester__> i like bananas
[21:19] <albech> tester__: but bananas are like DOS
[21:19] <albech> tester__: for monkeys
[21:20] <tester__> albech is mean...
[21:20] <britt_> hello... in gutsy, whenever I insert any CD, i must manually mount it through the terminal. In previous versions, it would do this autmatically. Is this a permissions issue?
[21:20] <tester__> yes
[21:21] <tester__> better buy vista. no problem with CD
[21:21] <Matt2> Anyone able to help with a usb problem? I have a usb headset that is not being detected.
[21:21] <britt_> tester__: thanks for sarcasm. I use and work with linux everyday, but i still have questions.
[21:22] <dajhorn> britt_: Check that your /dev/cdrom symlink is pointing to the right device node.
[21:22] <albech> britt_: do you have Removable Drives and Media installed?
[21:22] <sn00zer> why is there a AMD and Intel cpu temp on this? http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/45152/
[21:23] <dajhorn> britt_:  Also check that the /etc/fstab file has a sensible /media/cdrom entry.
[21:23] <britt_> dajhorn: symlink is ok.
[21:24] <usr13> Ragewarp: grep Identifier /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[21:24] <dajhorn> britt_: (My problem with upgrades to Gutsy was /dev/hda changing to /dev/scd0 is some circumstances.)
[21:25] <Grozo> is it posible to ignore a harddisk? (not a mount point).... because its not likeing my RAID 0 array
[21:25] <Matt2> USB headset is not listed in 'lsusb' any tips?
[21:25] <MilitantPotato> sn00zer: My wife's does that aswell, I just ignored it.
[21:25] <MilitantPotato> sn00zer: I believe it just labels it wrong, is yours a dual core?
[21:25] <britt_> dajhorn: it was pointing to /media/cdrom0, i changed it to /media/cdrom...we'll see if anything changes
[21:26] <sn00zer> MilitantPotato: no its an asus a7n8xe deluxe mb with a athlon xp 2800+
[21:26] <britt_> albech: Removable Drives and Media? A Package? I mean thesystem sees a dvd-rw drive
[21:26] <MilitantPotato> sn00zer: do both increase when you load your CPU?
[21:27] <albech> britt_: yes, a gnome package
[21:27] <britt_> albech: know the package name?
[21:28] <albech> britt_: search for 'mount' and it will show
[21:28] <sn00zer> MilitantPotato: all temps stay steady regardless of load
[21:28] <shawn_selig29> hi guys
[21:28] <drayveal> heya! can someone help me with installing WoW please?
[21:29] <shawn_selig29> i booted up ubuntu and it said there where 6 updates avvible....i clciked ot install them....
[21:29] <bmk789> is there a way to custom make a glabels 3-UP template?
[21:29] <shawn_selig29> now it syas
[21:29] <shawn_selig29> You have 1 broken package on your system!
[21:29] <albech> britt_: you find it?
[21:29] <MilitantPotato> sn00zer: that's not good
[21:29] <shawn_selig29> and it says to use some borken flter to repair it
[21:29] <Grozo> is it posible to ignore a harddisk? (not a mount point).... because its not likeing my RAID 0 array
[21:29] <britt_> albech: there's 256 packages to look thru, i'm looking
[21:30] <shadeofgrey> okay folks
[21:30] <shawn_selig29> any idea or fixing it?
[21:30] <MilitantPotato> sn00zer: run glxgears and see if any rise (you'll need to re-enter sensors into terminal to get updated stats)
[21:30] <shadeofgrey> wheres the best place to get screenshots of the default ubuntu install of 7.10
[21:30] <dajhorn> britt_: Change the "show" pulldown menu to "Supported applications" and you'll get three hits.
[21:30] <albech> huh? through the gnome installation software? (Add/Remove Programs)??
[21:30] <sn00zer> MilitantPotato: ok, but i've had problems with glxinfo crashing X before so if i might disappear for a minute
[21:31] <drayveal> shadeofgrey: use the LiveCD of Ubuntu 7.10 and take screen shots within that
[21:32] <drayveal> shadeofgrey: then do Applications > Take Screenshot
[21:32] <drayveal> save it to your hard drive and BLAM!
[21:32] <chimp> im trying to connect to a wireless network in gutsy but it is not working, it see's the network and i enter the ssid but it fails without giving an error
[21:32] <dajhorn> britt_: If you prefer the prompt, then `sudo apt-get install gnome-volume-manager` will get the same result.
[21:32] <chimp> is there a way to connect via the terminal so as to give the error?
[21:33] <britt_> albech: im in synaptic....
[21:33] <drayveal> Chimp: if it sees the network  you don't have to add the SSID unless you are not broadcasting it
[21:33] <chimp> oops
[21:33] <albech> britt_: use the command dajhorn just wrote
[21:33] <chimp> sorry i always say the wrong things :P

[21:33] <ubotu> Deutschsprachige Hilfe fuer Probleme mit Ubuntu, Kubuntu und Edubuntu finden Sie in den Kanaelen #ubuntu-de, #kubuntu-de, #xubuntu-de und #edubuntu-de
[21:33] <multidex> how do I mount sdb1 ?
[21:33] <chimp> i mean the wpa code
[21:33] <chimp> not the SSID name
[21:33] <drayveal> Chimp: and you are 100% sure its WPA and not WEP
[21:33] <chimp> yep
[21:34] <chimp> infact it worked on this laptop yesterday
[21:34] <chimp> then decided to stop working for no reason i can ascertain
[21:34] <dajhorn> chimp: If the Network Manager is inadequate, then you can use the `wpa_cli` and `wpa_supplicant` utilities at the terminal command line.
[21:34] <Grozo> is it posible to ignore a harddisk? (not a mount point).... because its not likeing my RAID 0 array
[21:34] <britt_> dajhorn: lol. apparently i already have it.
[21:34] <britt_> i just woke up, so im not running at 100% yet
[21:35] <drayveal> Chimp: what dajhorn said
[21:35] <mehevi> hey guys what are the commandline flags to set Onboard size and window geometry?  It's an on screen keyboard
[21:35] <dajhorn> britt_: Weird.  Try adding your regular user to the cdrom group next.
[21:35] <chimp> cheers
[21:35] <sn00zer> MilitantPotato: M/B Temp went up 1 degree the others stayed the same
[21:35] <britt_> dajhorn: thats what i was thinking
[21:35] <drayveal> Can someone help me with installing World of Warcraft?  I need to get Burning Crusade installed, but its not picking up the original installation of World of Warcraft
[21:35] <britt_> dajhorn: mounts fine when i mount it with sudo
[21:35] <shawn_selig29> is there anyway to stop ubuntu from using the system speaker when i press a invlaid button...like press backspace when evetyhing is already dleted?
[21:36] <multidex> what would the command syntax be to mount a sata drive of type ext3 that was seen by installation as sdb1?
[21:36] <dajhorn> britt_: The mount command should work without sudo if you are part of the cdrom group.  Notice that /dev/hd? is has ownership root:cdrom.
[21:36] <Matt2> my usb headset doesn't seem to be detected when i plug it in. it doesn't show up in the device manager or in 'lsusb'. any tips?
[21:37] <mehevi> multidex mount -t ext3 /dev/sdb1
[21:37] <dajhorn> Grozo: You can do it at the boot prompt by passing a kernel command line parameter, but I don't remember the syntax.
[21:37] <britt_> dajhorn: yeah, i would say its odd that it didnt do this when i did a fresh install, but i work with redhat 7 at work and it does crazy stuff too
[21:37] <dajhorn> britt_: *shrug* I've had lots of breakage with Gutsy upgrades.
