[14:43] <danny_> hello people, what does the trocker search tool does? it is useful?
[14:43] <danny_> tracker*
[14:43] <drash> sure, paste away
[14:44] <Pici> KindOne: 32bit, Pentium 2s are not 64bit processors
[14:44] <noob-africa_> Dr_willis: there is a USB flash disk that has a lot of windows viruses, which i want to clean out... i havent tried clamav, yet, but isnt there a way to delete these manually from Nautilus?
[14:44] <Philh> bridean, if anti-aliasing worries you so much just switch it off completely, things will look horrible but at least there's no "blurry"
[14:44] <KindOne> pici, thank you =) \
[14:44] <PCDJ> stbain, all i want to do is share 2 drives with the other XP computer
[14:44] <stbain> PCDJ: ahh ok
[14:44] <Rippofunk> anyone? mod_php4 on hardy heron
[14:44] <Rippofunk> ?
[14:44] <CLEARviewF> hi, do anybody know why can i not see my Genre icon on mi Collection in Amarok over Ubuntu Gnome? i installed kdebase-data but, after that i just can see Artist and Album icon but still not the Genre icon.
[14:44] <Dr_willis> noob-africa_,  delete viruses?  you need a virus tool for that.
[14:45] <babolat> http://paste.ubuntu.com/12236/ drash
[14:45] <danny_> is the tracker search tool not the same as deskbar applet?
[14:45] <aMuleAduGuest215> hi all i have downloaded a windows program (band in a box) that i know works very well with wine. The file is a rar with 2 parts (part1iso.bin e part2iso.bin) anyone knows how to mount them and install? thank u quite alot :D
[14:45] <drash> thx, i'll take a look, brb
[14:45] <danny_> what does tracker search exactly does?
[14:45] <stbain> Rippofunk: PHP4 is no longer supported by the PHP team. End of life was December of last year.
[14:45] <TimothyP> upstart:   on started mysql does not work on ubuntu?
[14:45] <noob-africa_> Dr_willis: i installed (get-apt install) clamav, it is in the /etc/clamav/ directory...
[14:46] <bazhang> !info tracker
[14:46] <PCDJ> stbain, is there a way to share folders through network without samba?
[14:46] <noob-africa_> Dr_willis: but the ls shows only the following files... clamd.conf  freshclam.conf  onerrorexecute.d  onupdateexecute.d
[14:46] <Philh> danny_, i wouldn't be surprised if they both consult the same database for their indexes
[14:46] <adam7> PCDJ: yeah, you can use sshfs, or NFS, I think
[14:46] <Philh> indices, sorry
[14:46] <bridean> Philh:  Anti-aliasing?
[14:46] <noob-africa_> Dr_willis: what is the command syntax to run it?
[14:46] <Rippofunk> stbain you must mean ubuntu php team?
[14:47] <stbain> PCDJ: for sharing with Windows boxes, Samba is probably your best bet.
[14:47] <Philh> bridean, the smudgy smooth edges you're experiencing around onscreen fonts is as a result of anti-aliasing, it's intended to make text more pleasant to read at low resolutions
[14:47] <Rippofunk> stbain: you must mean ubuntu php team?
[14:47] <stbain> Rippofunk: No, the PHP team at php.net. Give me a sec and let me see if I can find the announcement.
[14:47] <PCDJ> stbain, but it doesn't work lol just my luck too
[14:47] <swirl> disconnect
[14:47] <kakoonia> im trying to figure out something, and i hope one of you can help me out, i got two screens, 1: Laptop screen with 1280x800 preferred resolution , 2: Philips 22" LCD screen with 1600x1050 preferred resolution, im trying to set a twin view that each one of my two screens will be set in its own resolution 1600x1050 and 1280x800 but still that ill see the whole screen on the smaller screen, anyone got me? and know what to do maybe?
[14:47] <swirl> woops
[14:48] <adam7> stbain: Rippofunk: the release chart on wikipedia has it: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PHP
[14:48] <PCDJ> i installed ssfhs
[14:48] <drash> babolat, what setting are you using in totem for the encoding scheme ?
[14:48] <Rippofunk> stbain: i see announcement on the front page of an update jan 2008 4.4.8
[14:48] <PCDJ> stbain, i installed the sshshs or whatever initials are lol
[14:48] <bridean> Philh:  Ok, how do I turn it off?  I assume that I can turn it back on if that doesn't fix the problem?
[14:48] <stbain> Rippofunk: security releases only
[14:48] <aku> co_dezta
[14:49] <babolat> drash: i don't remember setting anything
[14:49] <Pici> Rippofunk: stbain: http://www.phpdeveloper.org/news/8235
[14:49] <Philh> bridean, oh, i seem to recall someone already mentioning using the monochrome setting, that turns it off
[14:49] <gangsterlicious> anyone here know if 8.04 would work with PERC controllers?
[14:49] <drash> babolat, try "utf-8" or one of the other western types in the dropdown menu
[14:49] <stbain> that's the one
[14:49] <sakuramboo> update manager crashes when i try to view the preferences
[14:49] <bridean> Philh:  Ok
[14:50] <davelee> Hi all. Hey, does xorg support 32 bit colour? and if so, how can i change my xorg.conf to make it happy with my Nvidia GTS 8800 at 1600x res ?
[14:50] <babolat> drash: i just checked. it's currently in Unicode UTF-8
[14:50] <davelee> sorry, googling ..
[14:51] <wols_> davelee: 32bit usually means 24bit actual color and 32bit used for mem usage only (easier to program)
[14:51] <bridean> That really is an annoying problem.  Is there anybody that actually likes the grey on white color for reading?
[14:51] <davelee> trying to run games and 24 bit doesnt quite cut it
[14:51] <PCDJ> hey the folder shared wooohooo
[14:51] <stbain> Rippofunk: that article Pici linked... as you can see, 4.4 will be getting critical security updates only, but that will be going away in three months. I would look to migrate to php5 as quickly as possible.
[14:51] <bridean> Here's what it looks like now.   [URL=http://img185.imageshack.us/my.php?image=screenshot2qr9.png][IMG]http://img185.imageshack.us/img185/4526/screenshot2qr9.th.png[/IMG][/URL]
[14:51] <davelee> wols - well it looks crap. you know if i can change it ?
[14:51] <drash> oké babolat, it's a wild guess, but try setting it to western(iso-8859-1)
[14:51] <Rippofunk> stbain: thanks, I guess i will have to change distros to one that supports 4
[14:52] <Pici> Rippofunk: PHP itself doesnt support 4 anymore.
[14:52] <PCDJ> stbain, TY now i have to boot the other gates infected PC and see if it shared
[14:52] <babolat> i did that drash but still no change.. i think i'm just gonna go with MPlayer
[14:52] <bridean> Also, is it worthwhile for me to try upgrading to 8.04?  I am running 7.10
[14:52] <davelee> wol - the greater problem is i'm trying to run eve online
[14:52] <wols_> davelee: ALL games on all platforms use 24bit only
[14:52] <stbain> Rippofunk: only if you want your PHP application to be open to any hacker in the world who manages to find a vulnerability after August 8th.
[14:52] <Rippofunk> i am getting paid to develop on php4 not 5, and obviously have no controlon update
[14:52] <drash> all the best babolat
[14:52] <davelee> and it works fine but looks a bit gradienty
[14:52] <Rippofunk> belive i know
[14:52] <babolat> thanks anyway drash
[14:52] <davelee> if you know what i mean ... banded
[14:53] <kakoonia> anyone knows what to do about my screens problem?
[14:53] <adam7> Rippofunk: try Dapper, it might have PHP4...
[14:53] <wols_> some high end graphics stuff uses more (10 bit per color usually) but normally you monitor cannot display more than 24bit
[14:53] <Rippofunk> stbain: belive me i know!!!
[14:53] <davelee> wols - so it's not a color depth issue?
[14:53] <stbain> Rippofunk: Yes, Dapper has v4 and is supported for another 3 years
[14:53] <adam7> bridean: beautiful :) I'd suggest you undo whatever that change as :P
[14:53] <adam7> s/as/was/
[14:53] <wols_> davelee: 24bit you only see banding in gradients in blue and green. maybe
[14:53] <davelee> wols - i found some other guys on the intertubes saying exactly what you are, on forum threads etc, so i expect you're right
[14:53] <Rippofunk> stbain: I use GEntoo on my laptop and that worksfine with php4, but they gave me an old desktop that would take years to install gentoo
[14:53] <wols_> Rippofunk: php4 is officially deal and buried
[14:54] <davelee> but i still think it looks funny
[14:54] <wols_> davelee: you sure it's using 24bit?
[14:54] <Rippofunk> stbain: thanks for the help
[14:54] <wols_> *dead
[14:54] <kakoonia> im trying to figure out something, and i hope one of you can help me out, i got two screens, 1: Laptop screen with 1280x800 preferred resolution , 2: Philips 22" LCD screen with 1600x1050 preferred resolution, im trying to set a twin view that each one of my two screens will be set in its own resolution 1600x1050 and 1280x800 but still that ill see the whole screen on the smaller screen, anyone got me? and know what to do maybe?
[14:54] <stbain> Rippofunk: no problem. As a CTO who is in the middle of migrating an entire PHP4 application stack to another platform, I feel your pain.
[14:55] <bridean> I am running Ubuntu on an HP Pavillion dv6446us laptop.  Runs a hell of a lot better than the Windows Vista home edition that was preinstalled
[14:55] <adam7> kakoonia: good luck -- what card are you using in your laptop? (and what version of Ubuntu?)
[14:55] <Rippofunk> stbain: like i said if it was up to me i would migrate, but their servers are slackware and they are old skool, so no hope
[14:56] <wols_> Rippofunk: soon they will have no choice, slack won't be supported forever there
[14:56] <stbain> Rippofunk: Do what I do... make them sign a disclaimer.
[14:56] <wols_> and neither will be php4
[14:56] <Rippofunk> stbain: diclaimer??
[14:56] <stbain> Rippofunk: Reads something along the lines of "PHP4 is no longer supported, Rippofunk is in no way liable for the security of the application."
[14:56] <bridean> OSUKid:  I used to work near OSU in Columbus Ohio.
[14:56] <stbain> Rippofunk: Basically, it makes them wake up and smell the coffee and protects you
[14:56] <wols_> a disclaimer that it'S not your fault they insist on php4 and might soon have owned servers
[14:57] <bridean> OSUKid:  Now, I live nowhere near Ohio
[14:57] <OSUKid7> bridean: ah nice, yeah I'm from Columbus
[14:57] <bazhang> !ot
[14:57] <Rippofunk> stabin: yeah
[14:57] <legend2440> !paste
[14:57] <Rippofunk> stbain: yeah
[14:57] <bridean> Adam7:  Are there any other settings I can play with that would effect the font?
[14:57] <PCDJ> stbain, it share but other PC does not see this one
[14:57] <kakoonia> adam7: im using nvidia Geforce GO 7300 and im on ubuntu Hardy..
[14:58] <adam7> bridean: not that I know of :/
[14:58] <adam7> !font | bridean
[14:58] <OSUKid7> so... anyone familiar with the "SSH VPN"/ssh tunnel setup? I had it working last week, but now whenver I try, I get "Tunnel device open failed." and "Could not request tunnel forwarding." errors
[14:58] <stbain> PCDJ: I think there's a #samba channel... they'd be able to get you on track in no time flat
[14:58] <ubuntunoob> no people is chatting in #ubuntu-offtopic
[14:58] <PCDJ> stbain, TY
[14:58] <Rippofunk> stbain: it seems like you are keeping this whole channel alive! thanks agian
[14:59] <stbain> PCDJ: Sorry I couldn't be of more help. I haven't really had to deal with Samba (or Windows for that matter) for years
[14:59] <legend2440> can someone look at this and tell me if they have same problem with hardy? http://paste.ubuntu.com/12238/
[14:59] <stbain> Rippofunk: Nah... I just type really really fast
[14:59] <Rippofunk> stbain: haha laters
[14:59] <bridean> Adam7:  Is Ubuntu 8.04 any improvement over 7.10?
[14:59] <wols_> legend2440: is this usb?
[14:59] <erUSUL> OSUKid7: have you read about the debian/ubuntu openssh security bug/exploit ???
[14:59] <PCDJ> stbain, only my daughter's PC has microcsucks windows i am 100% linux
[15:00] <Philh> bridean, oh, so you're trying to turn AA off within freeciv?
[15:00] <adam7> bridean: yeah, but if you're happy with 7.10, you don't have to upgrade :)
[15:00] <OSUKid7> erUSUL: the one from a couple days ago? yes, and it has been patched, afaik
[15:00] <legend2440> wols_: no western digital ide. the drive i have ubintu on
[15:00] <erUSUL> OSUKid7: you may need to first upgrade your system(s) and maybe regenerate your keys vpn set ups
[15:00] <ubuntunoob> i am only not happy with firefox in gutsy
[15:00] <ubuntunoob> flash always crash
[15:00] <stbain> PCDJ: I have a pretty even mix of Linux, Windows, Mac at home and here in my office, but the core stuff is all Linux
[15:00] <erUSUL> OSUKid7: if i read it correctly it affects vpn set ups too
[15:00] <bridean> Adam7:  Well, I have all the applications and stuff I want set up in 7.10.  How is 8.04 an improvement?
[15:01] <OSUKid7> erUSUL: hmm, I've done dist-upgrade on both systems and believe they both re-generated the keys... and also, this isn't a true vpn setup - it just uses SSH (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SSH_VPN)
[15:01] <douye> Where can i find the default download folder of hellanzb ?
[15:01] <adam7> bridean: well, more recent versions of some apps, and pulse audio, if you consider that an improvement (I do :D), and Firefox 3 beta 5, and LTS support
[15:01] <hydrogen> ho hum
[15:01] <Andycas> How to delete rythbox music list under "music"???
[15:01] <hydrogen> theres a bot joinspamming people
[15:01] <hydrogen> where are the ops!
[15:02] <bazhang> hydrogen, which one
[15:02] <pinnerup> I converted from Window to Ubuntu (8.04) two days ago, but my new Ubuntu has given me any number of error messages and crashes. Suddenly sound won't play, programs won't close or grey out, menu's don't work, I can't start up gnome-terminal etc.
[15:02] <hydrogen> bazhang: CAP5050:
[15:02] <erUSUL> OSUKid7: the server keys are regenerated but maybe you have to regenerate personal keys??? use "sudo ssh-vulnkey -a" to check all keys on a system
[15:02] <pinnerup> It's usually ok after I reboot - for a couple of hours. Then it starts again.
[15:02] <hydrogen> bazhang: they seem not to respond to /cycle
[15:02] <Philh> bridean, is the text you're seeing still fuzzy even outside of the freeciv window?
[15:02] <adam7> hydrogen: you can join #ubuntu-ops, I think to get some help (or do !ops, but be careful with that, it makes people unhappy if it isn't needed)
[15:02] <bridean> Adam7:  Actually, I might be interested because I was experimenting with a program called rosegarden for writing music.  But it has trouble with how MIDI is handled under Ubuntu.  Maybe it would have less trouble under Ubuntu 8.04
[15:02] <OSUKid7> erUSUL: all are listed as "Not blacklisted"
[15:03] <adam7> bridean: no idea, I don't use MIDI, sorry
[15:03] <hydrogen> adam7: right, thats why I didn't invoke the operator gods :)
[15:03] <bridean> philh:  Yeah a little bit
[15:03] <adam7> hydrogen: yep :) I've seen people who angered the gods, and ... *poof* :P
[15:03] <Lynet> pinnerup: Are these consistent errors (i.e., application A always hangs audio) or are they random? If random, it might be hardware issues.
[15:03] <adam7> just like that.
[15:03] <Philh> bridean, for me that text is almost unreadable because of the lack of anti-aliasing, if it's fuzzy for you i wonder if you're driving your laptop's panel at the correct resolution
[15:03] <erUSUL> OSUKid7: ok; then if all your systems/keys are ok then i dunno ....
[15:03] <Andycas> How to delete rythmbox music list under "music"???
[15:04] <adam7> Philh: its fuzzy in the screenshots too
[15:04] <douye> Where is the default download folder of hellanzb ?
[15:04] <bridean> Philh:  Not "all" of the text is fuzzy
[15:04] <Philh> bridean, so the normal text is sharp and horrible but in the game it's fuzzy?
[15:05] <bridean> Philh:  Also, it's possible that imageshack might have made the images fuzzy from compression
[15:05] <Philh> adam7, i'm asking about the desktop in general, not the freeciv window
[15:05] <kissdb> 有说汉语的吗
[15:05] <bridean> Philh:  Yeah, that's pretty much right
[15:05] <spaceninja> When I tried to boot ubuntu right after the installation, I got a error 17 by grub. What to do_
[15:05] <bazhang> !cn | kissdb
[15:05] <pinnerup> Lynet: I haven't been able to find one program that'll always trigger them.
[15:05] <Philh> bridean, it's a PNG and i've gone to the image url, not the scaled version presented at the url you gave
[15:05] <pinnerup> Lynet: But it's a fairly new computer.
[15:05] <kissdb> ok
[15:05] <haochela> Carolyn Davis can't print from pcp5055 in es to a printer in infusion. I changed her local printer over to an identical printer on another print server at ermc and jobs started going through.
[15:06] <spaceninja> I got a windows hard drive as my IDE slave, and a SATA hard drive
[15:06] <Philh> bridean, and you actually find the unreadable jagged look of the text outside of the freeciv window more pleasant than anti-aliased text?
[15:07] <bridean> Philh:  It's an improvment over the gray vs. white stuff I had earlier
[15:07] <bridean> Philh:  At least this is black vs. white
[15:07] <Helios> Well all i wanna know, wat's ubuntu for??? i currently use kubuntu...
[15:07] <bridean> Philh:  How do I turn anti-aliasing off?
[15:07] <Helios> i wanna try ubuntu
[15:07] <Helios> got any tips?
[15:07] <noob-africa_> folks... i need some help here... i installed VLC, but it is failing to play a SVCD disk of mine... there is a support page that says VLC supports SVCD media on Linux
[15:07] <bazhang> Helios, install ubuntu-desktop
[15:07] <Lynet> pinnerup: I'd try running memtest over night, if that finds no errors I'd make a post on ubuntu forums detailing your hardware and any suspicious messages you find in /var/log/
[15:07] <noob-africa_> what could be wrong?
[15:07] <pinnerup> Lynet: I have som suspicion that it could be linked to the Nvidia proprietary driver, but I'm not sure.
[15:08] <jarray> s
[15:08] <pinnerup> Lynet: I tried running memtest for some three hours. It went three passes without finding anything.
[15:08] <Helios> hmmmm well this is the difference in the Look and interface..
[15:08] <Helios> i wanna know about the features...
[15:08] <noob-africa_> !SVCD
[15:08] <Philh> bridean, the greys, or indeed the slight colours if using subpixel AA, are there to make the text more readable, it's not worth turning off unless you're running at some insanely high resolution
[15:08] <douye> Where is the default hellanzb download folder ?
[15:08] <bazhang> Helios, this is not the channel for that; you can check www.distrowatch.com for more info and screenshots
[15:09] <RainCT> Hi
[15:09] <OSUKid7> erUSUL: yeah, re-did aptitude upgrades on both systems and I'm still getting the same errors when I try sudo ssh -w 0:0 the.remote.host
[15:09] <pinnerup> Lynet: Now it makes an error when I go to System | Preferences | Screen Resolution, it says: "The X Server does not support the XRandR extension.  Runtime resolution changes to the display size are not available."
[15:09] <bridean> Philh:  Sorry, but for me gray on white is damn hard to read.  It may be because I am color blind, but it really should be black on white.
[15:09] <no7up4u2> hi all
[15:10] <pinnerup> Lynet: Also, I find that it will run my display no higher than 1280*1024, even though I could easily run much more on Windows.
[15:10] <EugenA> hi, how do i upgrade a package from console?
[15:10] <Squirrel> hello tt le monde j'ai besoin d'aide pour l'installation de drivers plz?
[15:10] <Philh> bridean, anyway, it looks like you need to find a setting inside freeciv to turn that anti-aliasing off, it doesn't take any notice of the gnome settings
[15:10] <bazhang> !fr | Squirrel
[15:10] <Ollie> Hey, does anybody know why my 8.04 refuses to power off my laptop? After a shutdown, I just get a white screen which goes all psychedelic and I have to power off manually???
[15:10] <Lynet> pinnerup: Sounds like a snafu'd install of the nvidia driver. Dunno why it would mess up sound though.
[15:10] <bridean> Philh:  In general, how do I turn anti-aliasing off?
[15:10] <Philh> bridean, in general you already have
[15:10]  * vagothcpp has gone: Away from Keyboard.
[15:10] <Helios> thanks
[15:11] <Philh> and it's horrible
[15:11] <Andycas> I have a weird problem, i can only play one single stream of sound, if i try to play a video file and then open rhythmbox, it wont play rhythmbox stream, when i close both of them and reopen rhythmbox - it plays?
[15:11] <Lynet> !nvidia | pinnerup
[15:11] <bazhang> !away > vagothcpp
[15:11] <ropel> Hi, I'm having some troubles with the new Ubuntu and my network configuration.
[15:11] <bridean> Philh:  You really think grey on white was better?
[15:11] <Philh> bridean, you might want to try bumping your font sizes up a little if you're turning AA off, it'll make things less garbled
[15:11] <pinnerup> Lynet: I have done that. Immediately when I booted up, it asked if I wanted to enable Nvidia proprietary driver. I did.
[15:12] <vagothcpp> I did not change my nick, now I am afk
[15:12] <zaggy-nl|cpts600> how is software sound acceleration in ubuntu nowadays? ie: playing multiple things at once
[15:12] <bazhang> !elaborate | ropel
[15:12] <pinnerup> Then I turned on fancy graphics and things came crashing down.
[15:12] <no7up4u2> anyone knows how to open / decompile a .MEM file?
[15:12] <ropel> I cannot get an IP address, and network tools doesn't seem to recognize my interfaces anymore...
[15:13] <ropel> I have networkmanager in use
[15:13] <adam7> zaggy-nl|cpts600: much better then it was with Breezy :)
[15:13] <EugenA> is it possible to upgrade only a single package with apt-get?
[15:13] <drash> pulseaudio is great zaggy-nl|cpts600
[15:13] <ropel> I would like to verify my configuration: interfaces / hosts etc...
[15:13] <pinnerup> Lynet: It also seems to be related to certain KDE-applications.
[15:14] <adam7> EugenA: sudo apt-get install the-upgrade-package
[15:14] <no7up4u2> .MEM file anyone? how u decompile /open it?
[15:14] <zaggy-nl|cpts600> adam7: good to hear
[15:14] <PCDJ> <---samba installing lol
[15:14] <janson999> Hello. How can I downgrade firefox 3 beta , to the stable version 2.somthing? I'm using the newest ubuntu, and this firefox stucks my computer
[15:14] <zaggy-nl|cpts600> what about DVD burning? I managed to get only slow speeds with k3b last time I tried
[15:14] <pinnerup> Lynet: I'm running a standard HH (i.e. gnome), but I've installed "Krusader" and some other apps through Add/Remove. And Krusader in particular likes to spit out error messages.

[15:15] <bridean> Philh:  I tried bumping up all of the font sizes to 12.  No effect
[15:15] <Lynet> pinnerup: Hard to figure out without more information. I.e., /etc/X11/xorg.conf, /var/log/dmesg|messages|Xorg.0.log|syslog and any error messages output by programs that go crashy.

[15:17] <ropel> anyone know why network manager seems to connect, but IP remains <IP_ADDRESS> and no real connection is established?
[15:17] <AngryElf> okay -- other than including a beta webbrowser as default (lame) upgrade went okay, except for the fact that my computer hangs up when rebooting -- and leaves me with "[211.12354124] Rebooting computer" er something similar at the bottom of the screen -- this happens after it's killed everything off, it seems to me like the last thing before a reboot, but it never goes through, any ideas why that may be?

[15:34] <RyanPrior> Hammer89: that's not a very good way to ask the question. Better: "I'm trying to mount my SuperAwesomeTek mp3 Player (iForest iPlay iMusic Greenie Edition) to mount but it has an error saying 'cannot read filesystem', how do I fix this?"
[15:34] <BVBBQ> hey all. for some reason my xrandr extention isnt working properly and i cant adjust my resolution or refresh rate

[15:38] <Radi1> bazhang: totem can't play wav files?
[15:38] <kreeper> hello
[15:38] <RainCT> is any Savage player around?
[15:39] <bazhang> Radi1, what did you try so far
[15:39] <noob-africa_> bazhang: i even tried the SVCD discs on my iMac... didnt play... they only play on a commercial home theatre system
[15:39] <scoopex_> ok, i got this panel at my right side of desktop, but how may i get more stuff on it? its just boring shortcuts i can put on
[15:39] <bazhang> noob-africa_, sounds like they have some weird anti-computer drm on them then
[15:39] <danny_> does anyone know if is possible to run camfrog on linux?
[15:39] <overdose> thiebaude,  theres actually an option to delete the panel
[15:39] <Combatjuan> When a process runs in linux, does it always run with the permissions of the user who told it to run?
[15:40] <overdose> which im gonna do right now
[15:40] <MidasWS> hi, in terminal how do i add "overwrite files if existing" to this? cp -R source.com/ target.com/
[15:40] <Radi1> i tried playing wav file by double clicking it, it brings totem, but totem doesnt play them
[15:40] <noob-africa_> bazhang: what's drm?
[15:40] <bazhang> Radi1, try some others first
[15:40] <fent> I noticed my computer rebooted at during the night. I didn't reboot it, and no one has any legitimate access to the machine. Is there any possibility this doesnt indicate a compromise? (recent ssh vuln makes me believe this scenario isnt unlikely)
[15:40] <bazhang> noob-africa_, digital restriction s management
[15:40] <mgolisch> Radi1: whats the error?
[15:40] <noob-africa_> bazhang: ah...
[15:40] <Radi1> bazhang: i already tried, i download the wav files from gnome-look.org
[15:41] <Hammer89> fent: odd... my laptop did the same yesterday
[15:41] <bazhang> Radi1, try vlc among others
[15:41] <mgolisch> Radi1: and are those realy wav files? did you install the needed gstreamer plugins?
[15:41] <mgolisch> just install all to be sure
[15:41] <noob-africa_> bazhang: but the SVCD is my own... i created it using Adobe Premiere Pro 1.5 (Windows) way back in 2006!
[15:41] <fent> Hammer89 hm, sorta worrying
[15:41] <Hammer89> fent: no joke
[15:41] <BonezAU> AHH HAH
[15:41] <bazhang> noob-africa_, really no idea apart from asking you to try some different players
[15:41] <mgolisch> noob-africa_: mplayer and vlc doesnt play it?
[15:42] <BonezAU> ahhaha
[15:42] <Radi1> mgolisch: yes, i installed gstreamer plugin the first time i played an mp3 file, then totem ask me to download gstreamer, which i then downloaded
[15:42] <noob-africa_> mgolisch: am downloading mplayer right now... will find out soon
[15:42] <fent> I don't see anything suspicious in the .bash_history.
[15:42] <bazhang> BonezAU, you have a support question?
[15:42] <Radi1> mgolisch: i can play mp3 but not wav files
[15:42] <BonezAU> bazhang, yes, look above
[15:42] <noob-africa_> mgolisch: vlc recognises the disc, but it doesnt play it
[15:42] <mgolisch> Radi1: yeah you may not have installed the needed gstreamer plugin
[15:42] <mgolisch> for that
[15:42] <bazhang> fent, they still on your machine? type who in terminal to see
[15:42] <BonezAU> aha
[15:42] <drash> it can Radi, install the gstreamer-0.10-plugins-good for wav support
[15:43] <danny_> does anyone know if possible to run camfrog on linux?
[15:43] <Radi1> mgolisch: can you tell me how to do this?
[15:43] <bloody_> got a question: is it normal that gparted needs 4 hours to shrink a ntfs part. 100gb to 90gb and sets the blocksize from normally 512 to 256?
[15:43] <bazhang> BonezAU, please repeat it I missed it
[15:43] <fent> bazhang nope, only me, I assume they rebooted to cover their tracks
[15:43] <mgolisch> Radi1: do what drash  said
[15:43] <mumrah> I am having difficulty extending my desktop to a second monitor. I am using 8.04 and the new Xorg Screen Resolution utility. Any attempts to modify xorg.conf (like I have done previously) have resulted in a broken X
[15:43] <BonezAU> bazhang, Are there any other GUI's available for PPTP VPN connections than NetworkManager?
[15:43] <noob-africa_> Question: Wouldnt it be much easier to port Adobe Illustrator (any CS version) to Linux, rather than run it in Wine?
[15:43] <BonezAU> ahaha
[15:43] <Radi1> drash: can you tell me how to do that?
[15:43] <fent> bazhang: so, this really must mean someone else was on the machine right? I don't know anything that can restart your machine without user intervention
[15:43] <Terrasque> bloody_: well, changing block size likely means that it have to twiddle every bit on the disk, so yea.. I guess so
[15:43] <mgolisch> noob-africa_: no its closed source, how would you port it?
[15:44] <bloody_> ok then i hope all will be fine
[15:44] <Hammer89> fent: You're sure it rebooted and GDM didn't just crash or something?
[15:44] <drash> Radi1 i'm on xubuntu as it happens, but do you know you're way around Synaptic ?
[15:44] <BonezAU> Ah Hah
[15:44] <coldlook> .join
[15:44] <Radi1> drash: yes
[15:44] <BonezAU> coldlook, #
[15:44]  * zSoilworker Hallo.
[15:44] <bazhang> fent, unless it was scheduled by you; who else had access to the machine and knew your pass
[15:44] <BonezAU> zSoilworker, hello, AHH HAH
[15:45] <RyanPrior> drash: Synaptic is the same as apt-get and aptitude and so on -- all the same system.
[15:45] <noob-africa_> mgolisch: reverse engineering?
[15:45] <mgolisch> noob-africa_: lol?
[15:45] <noob-africa_> mgolisch: data to data? is it possible?
[15:45] <drash> well, look for that particular package Radi1 and it should install fine, did it this morning
[15:45] <BonezAU> mgolisch, yes, it is possible
[15:45] <mumrah> so can anyone help my with my second monitor issue?
[15:45] <BonezAU> mumrah, sure
[15:45] <Radi1> drash: can you tell me which one is it?
[15:45] <mumrah> bonezAU: I am having difficulty extending my desktop to a second monitor. I am using 8.04 and the new Xorg Screen Resolution utility. Any attempts to modify xorg.conf (like I have done previously) have resulted in a broken X
[15:45] <mgolisch> noob-africa_: maybe, but why? just run it in windows
[15:45] <Hammer89> bazhang: there were some vulnerabilities weren't there? with ssh and ssl... coulda just been a brute force attack... though it doesn't really seem all that likely
[15:45] <douye> how can i check the status of hellanzb in the terminal ?
[15:46] <Radi1> drash: there are alot of gstreamer
[15:46] <drash> gstreamer-0.10-plugins-good Radi1
[15:46] <BonezAU> mumrah, do you have an Nvidia, ATI or other graphics card?
[15:46] <noob-africa_> btw, i have 7.10 on my laptop... it is a HP Compaq nx6110 (which i was told is a write-off, but works fine under linux, not windows)... how do i use the external video out for preentations?
[15:46] <RyanPrior> douye: cat /home/hellanzv/.plan ?
[15:46] <BonezAU> ahhhahaa
[15:46] <noob-africa_> mgolisch: i hate windows! lol
[15:46] <bazhang> BonezAU, please stop with the ahahah
[15:47] <BonezAU> bazhang, AHH HAH
[15:47] <cheike123> I have a huge issue with evolution
[15:47] <douye> ryanprior:  No such file or directory
[15:47] <Radi1> drash: it's already installed
[15:47] <mumrah> bonezau: intel, it is a dell laptop
[15:47] <EEE900Tinkering> was wondering if there was a way to set up a bootable usb drive w/ ubuntu on it that didn't require disconnecting my hard drives (since i only have laptops and don't feel comfortable ripping them up) or even perhaps imaging, copying and adapting my current install on another machine?
[15:47] <RyanPrior> douye: Perhaps I don't understand what you mean. Is hellenzb a user?
[15:47] <cheike123> I just deleted all of my old trash and it overwrote my inbox
[15:47] <drash> just a second Radi1, i'm on the phone, brb ok
[15:47] <douye> ryanprior: hellanzb is a usenet download program :P
[15:47] <RyanPrior> EEE900Tinkering: It is possible, yes.
[15:48] <laeg> ipconfig >>> what is the ubuntu equivalent? ifconfig, lshw -class network and sudo mii-tool will not bring up my default gateway - what will please?
[15:48] <RyanPrior> douye: Ah, my previous suggestion made 0 sense then.
[15:48] <mumrah> bonezau: i am using a second monitor presently, but it is only a clone of my desktop - i want to be able to extend my desktop across my laptop screen and this monitor
[15:48] <douye> ryanprior: :P
[15:48] <BonezAU> mumrah, hmm ok, that makes it a little more difficult. I know there are utilities available for Nvidia cards that allow you to configure it all from the GUI. Unfortunately i'm not too clued up on the INtel cards. AHH HAHAHA
[15:48] <Radi1> drash: ok..
[15:48] <RyanPrior> douye: You'll have to read its man pages and figure out how to check its status.
[15:48] <noob-africa_> just tried running mplayer... doesnt work either
[15:48] <Andycas> Is there a way to have 2 apps playing different audio on same device? Right now it says, that the device is busy....
[15:48] <nikoboy> has anyone use VirtualBox box before?
[15:48] <RyanPrior> Andycas: Yes, that's what PulseAudio in Ubuntu 8.04 is designed to do.
[15:48] <RyanPrior> !anyone | nikoboy
[15:49] <BonezAU> mumrah, yes, I understand. I have an IBM Thinkpad at work and I have only been able to get the clone working. I've never tried anything else as I have a 22" widescreen on my desk, so I just close the lid on my laptop. It also has an intel graphics card. hahahaahhaaaaaaaaaah
[15:49] <noob-africa_> nikoboy: i installed it, tried to run it, didnt understand it, postponed it for later
[15:49] <hummesse> hey everybody. What is the best way to use msn webcam under ubuntu?
[15:49] <Andycas> RyanPrior: but as ive understood, some apps dont support pulseaudio? Is there a way to make it default?
[15:49] <mumrah> bonezau: *sigh*
[15:49] <noob-africa_> RyanPrior: lol
[15:49] <RyanPrior> Andycas: some apps do not support PulseAudio, but I am told that there is a way to redirect their audio to the PA system. Couldn't tell you how though.
[15:49] <RyanPrior> !lol | noob-africa_
[15:49] <faemir> Can someone tell me whether ubuntu 8.04 has the latest version of stuff to manage the latest ipods?
[15:50] <BonezAU> mumrah, sorry I can't be of much help (and excuse my teretts syndrome) ahaha
[15:50] <PPKuma> hi, i'm need help with c programming, can somebody recommend me a channel where i can get it?
[15:50] <laeg> ubottu: lol
[15:50] <bazhang> BonezAU, please stop
[15:50] <RyanPrior> PPKuma: ##c
[15:50] <BonezAU> bazhang, sorry, I sometimes have outbursts and I can not help it
[15:50] <PPKuma> RyanPrior thanks
[15:51] <nikoboy> it is really that hard noob-africa? it seems you can install a virtual-windows there and run all the programs better than wine does
[15:51] <arvind_khadri> hi , am not able to view the other person's cam in kopete,the other person is using windows..Kopete just crashes as i accept the request to view it
[15:51] <nikoboy> i read that
[15:51] <nikoboy> but im not sure
[15:51] <BonezAU> bazhang, I am here to help others and to learn myself, but I can not cure my personal problems AHAHA
[15:51] <mgolisch> noob-africa_: how exactly do you play that thing? opening the mpegavsomething file from the mounted cd? or what?
[15:51] <laeg> ipconfig >>> what is the ubuntu equivalent? ifconfig, lshw -class network and sudo mii-tool will not bring up my default gateway - what will please?
[15:51] <RyanPrior> BonezAU: you are welcome to outburst in #ubuntu-offtopic if you'd like. However, it is not appropriate for this channel and it wont' be tolerated on an ongoing basis.
[15:51] <BonezAU> RyanPrior, I have a disease which I can not control. Please don't discriminate against me
[15:52] <Radi1> I just checked, now i cant play mp3s!
[15:52] <bazhang> BonezAU, this is a busy channel; please take it to #ubuntu-offtopic
[15:52] <arvind_khadri> any help??
[15:52] <RyanPrior> !helpme | arvind_khadri
[15:52] <BonezAU> bazhang, I have nothing off-topic to discuss, as I said, i'm here to help others and learn about things myself ahah
[15:53] <BonezAU> Pici, I am not a troll.
[15:54] <drash> Radi1: do you use the totem gstreamer version ? forgot to ask .. cause that throws up the question to download and install the needed codecs as you go, no more than confirming ...
[15:54] <arakthor> can you use variables in cron scripts?
[15:54] <fent> bazhang: no one else has access. I looked through auth.log, and syslog. I don't see anything obviously wrong :-/.
[15:55] <RyanPrior> Radi1: totem uses Gstreamer by default.
[15:55] <bazhang> fent when did you see it restarted? could it have been a power spike?
[15:55] <kreeper> is it cool to ask noob ?s here
[15:55] <RyanPrior> kreeper: We love noob questions.
[15:55] <fent> Hammer89: yes it was a restart - /var/log/syslog.log shows a restart at 7:50am today :-/ I wasn't up yet. I don't see any other restarts in the log for weeks back (so it's not something that was scheduled)
[15:55] <bazhang> kreeper, sure
[15:55] <howbag> Someone must tell me how to make a wlan device fetch an ip adress from DHCP within a terminal please! iwlist scan shows networks unencrypted but it doesnt connect :/
[15:55] <bazhang> !away > doogersAway
[15:56] <Radi1> drash: I'm sorry i don't understand what you mean, but i installed gstreamer when i played mp3 for the first time with totem, and i checked synaptics that i have gstreamer0.10-plugins-good installed
[15:56] <fent> bazhang: this morning, could a power spike have triggered a soft restart? The OS detect the power spike the restart on its own, or is that not likely?
[15:56] <bazhang> howbag, sudo dhclient wlan0
[15:56] <douye> Is there some way to see easily and fast how much space a folder uses ?
[15:57] <bazhang> fent just trying to cover all possibilities
[15:57] <Hammer89> fent: hrm... disturbing... I just installed the upgrades though so hopefully that's a long-gone issue :P
[15:57] <bloody_> give ncdu a try!
[15:57] <RyanPrior> douye: I know there is, but I always forget it because I like the graphical tool.
[15:57] <howbag> bazhang: *kisses*
[15:57] <howbag> thanks!
[15:57] <Pici> douye: du /parent/folder -h
[15:57] <Radi1> drash: maybe rebooting will solve the problem?
 ncdu
[15:57] <ovidiu> is there any way to check a ntfs partition for errors
[15:57] <ovidiu> in ubuntu?
[15:58] <d[X_X]b> anyone tried ddclient
[15:58] <fent> bazhang: yep thanks. I'm not sure what the appropriate response is here... reinstall OS? What steps can i take to check whether there was really a compromise (or is the restart itself enough evidence?)
[15:58] <dakira> has anyone tried out flash10, yet? what is it with the so-called Ubuntu support?
[15:58] <drash> Radi1: it shouldn't be necessary, but it wouldn't hurt ..
[15:59] <Radi1> drash: i will try rebooting.. hope it works, thanks for helping
[15:59] <Radi1> :-)
[15:59] <drash> have to go Radi1, will be back in an hour or so, hope you can get it going
[16:00] <bazhang> fent that seems over much; do you use ssh-server?
[16:00] <nikoboy> hi, where can i get the latest wine RPM packages for ubuntu?
[16:00] <douye> ryanprior: what tool do you use then?
[16:00] <vlt> Hello. I had Windows XP on the first (and only) partition. After having resized the NTFS file system (using the Ubuntu install CD) Windows still boots fine.
[16:00] <fent> bazhang: yep, and i had it unpached for about 8 hours on Tuesday
[16:00] <hrcguy> is wine very stable or is it still not good for windows games
[16:00] <vlt> But when I create a 2nd partition for Ubuntu in the space now available behind NTFS I get "Can't read media. Press Ctrl+Alt+Del to restart" (translated) from NTLDR. Deleting the 2nd partition and restoring the first one fixes this.
[16:00] <RyanPrior> douye: Applications -> Accessories -> Disk Usage Analyzer (or baobob on cli)
[16:00] <bazhang> fent well get the updates, generate some new keys first off
[16:01] <fent> bazhang: done and done =)
[16:01] <vlt> Any idea how to make Windows start when there is a Ubuntu  partition on the hard disk?
[16:01] <drash> nikoboy, ubuntu has wine in Synaptic package manager, no need to go thr rpm stuff ;)
[16:02] <drash> wine in a manager, it sounds off -topic i know, buit it works
[16:02] <bazhang> nikoboy, get from apt-get forget rpm :)
[16:02] <designerman> how can I get the gnucompiler and my kernel headers - just installed ubuntu
[16:02] <chrissy-> Hey, I have a problem with my desktop resolutions. I've edited my xorg.conf to add my resolution (1280x1024) but xfce still wants to use 800x600 even after an X restart.  Any ideas?
[16:02] <ttkeppi> vly: try to defrag hdd at windows. preferrably so that all data is consistent, and at the beginning of the hdd
[16:03] <RyanPrior> designerman: install the build-essential package and the kernel-headers-whatever-numbersnstuff packages.
[16:03] <hrcguy> any one got a good html editor for us that dont hand write code
[16:03] <designerman> chrissy-: dkpg-reconfigure xserver-xfree86
[16:03] <douye> ryanprior: nice prog! thx :)
[16:03] <RyanPrior> designerman: or maybe it's linux-headers-numbers
[16:03] <drash> bye all, happy buntu-ing
[16:03] <bazhang> !html | hrcguy
[16:03] <designerman> designerman: is there a package manager on ubuntu
[16:03] <bloody_> synaptic
[16:04] <designerman> RyanPrior: is there a package manager?
[16:04] <bazhang> !apt | designerman
[16:04] <arvind_khadri> hi , am not able to view the other person's cam in kopete,the other person is using windows..Kopete just crashes as i accept the request to view it
[16:04] <designerman> bazhang: thank you
[16:04] <chrissy-> designerman: Is that any different than using the xorg configurator? I tried that one and it didn't give me any options to select resolutions
[16:04] <bloody_> !synaptic
[16:04] <bazhang> ;)
[16:04] <vlt> ttkeppi: You mean there might be data belonging to the downsized NTFS behind the end of the new smaller partition hda1?
[16:04] <Virtue> can someone dccsend me vmlinuz-<IP_ADDRESS>-generic please ? (who has ubuntu 8.04), or tell where can I download it (can't find it)
[16:06] <ttkeppi> vlt: yes.. since you do make new partition to the hdd, all data on those sectors will be unusable at windblows
[16:06] <vlt> ttkeppi: Ok, what does the Ubuntu installer do additionally to `ntfsresize`?
[16:07] <ttkeppi> vlt: sry, no idea
[16:07] <Radit> Drash: rebooting solved the problem, thanks
[16:07] <guille> Problem trying kubuntu 8.04 installer. After loading, livecd crashes showing something like a "X" at the middle-screen. I cannot reinstall
[16:07] <ackstorm> Virtuall, vmlinuz is your kernel, it's probably not best to download it from someone else
[16:07] <Holyhandgrenade> hey people , whats the command to port scan http://www.this-adress.com in kubuntu (per cli)
[16:08] <b12> is it possible to have both gnome and xfce as a desktop environment

How do I change this to have the resoltution stay at 1920x1200 everytime I boot up?
[16:11] <hiptobecubic> I'm trying to make it so that rhythm box doesn't automatically open when I plug my ipod in?
[16:11] <fent> bazhang : ok, i think i may have jumped the gun. It was actually gdm that restarted (potentially crashed?), the machine did /not/ reboot. The restart I was looking at the syslogd daemon restarting =)

[16:14] <mateusz_g> hi
[16:14] <mateusz_g> just checking irc support in pidgin
[16:14] <mateusz_g> it's little weak i suppose
[16:14] <RyanPrior> mateusz_g: It's pretty basic.
[16:14] <urthmover> I heard Napster is the developing force behind Microsoft Mesh
[16:14] <RyanPrior> mateusz_g: I like Chatzilla bvest personaly.
[16:14] <mateusz_g> i see

[16:16] <euklidis> Ice i answered to you in prive room
[16:16] <hiptobecubic> IcE_^, you're question is pretty vague
[16:16] <rgravener> euklidis: i just want the output of ps -eaf to go into somefile.txt
[16:16] <arakthor> can you use variables in cron scripts?
[16:16] <hiptobecubic> your*
[16:16] <RyanPrior> IcE_^: You asked a question with no obvious answer.
[16:16] <halphaz> if I install wicd on gnome, what will kde use? wicd or networkmanager?

[16:17] <r00723r0> What do I do?
[16:17] <RyanPrior> nikoboy: If there's support for it great, I thought they used a Windows-only DRM though.
[16:17] <hiptobecubic> IcE_^, no, you asked a philosophical conundrum
[16:17] <Trae> http://pastebin.com/m3a69d09
[16:17] <RyanPrior> IcE_^: We can answer questions like "what package to I install to allow mp3 playback" or "how do I install virtualbox", but "what packages do I install?" is too vague.
[16:17] <bazhang> !ot | IcE_^
[16:18] <IcE_^> hiptobecubic: I made my question clear according to the channel rules.. go read my question, if you're able to answer it then plz do, else.. I don't need your lectures
[16:18] <mateusz_g> you know, localized.
[16:18] <euklidis> who asked about the ps eaf?

[16:24] <mateusz_g> dury: cannot install it?

[16:24] <dury> mateusz_g
[16:24] <Pici> dury: xmms is no longer being developed, use audacious instead.
[16:25] <RyanPrior> dury: You probably don't want XMMS, but is that the only thing that's broken?
[16:25] <IcE_^> Pici: thanks, thats all i was asking about! and thats where our argument went for
[16:25] <r00723r0> Whatever happened to BMP?
[16:25] <RyanPrior> r00723r0: Still around if you want it.
[16:25] <r00723r0> RyanPrior, actively developed?
[16:25] <r00723r0> I don't hear much talk about it.
[16:25] <dury> xmms it's great
[16:25] <RyanPrior> r00723r0: No clue.
[16:25] <mateusz_g> dury: what?
[16:26] <arakthor> dury: I believe you may be able to download and compile xmms from somewhere like freshmeat or sourceforge. you may have to look around abit

[16:28] <madrazr> Hi all, I get this error when I setup a virtual host *You don't have permission to access / on this server.* in Hardy, the same setup used to work fine in Gutsy
[16:28] <madrazr> help me please
[16:28] <dury> yeah Sinaptic
[16:28] <hiptobecubic> lol synaptic
[16:28] <grass0101> Can I get some advice on a backup solution?  I've just made the jump to Ubuntu from Winblows, and now I need to create a backup.  I want to backup my /home to a SAMBA server.  I used to use SyncToy in Windows, which would allow me to "sync" files from my laptop to the SAMBA server.  Will rsync do this for me?
[16:29] <bazhang> dury launch from terminal but spell it right :)
[16:29] <dury> sorry Synaptic
[16:29] <jerbear> grass0101: i would say rsync, but i don't think it syncs well with fat partitions
[16:29] <hiptobecubic> dury, sudo synaptic
[16:29] <Moppa^> hi, my networkspeed has dropped to a very low rate the last couple of days. won't go over 80kb/s and it doesnt matter wheter i download files from ftp locally or external http.
[16:29] <Pici> dury: gksudo synaptic
[16:30] <MidasWS> hello
[16:30] <MidasWS> how do i add "overwrite files if existing" to this? cp -R source.com/ target.com/
[16:30] <arakthor> there's a package for scanning ssh logs and black/grey listing IPs based on access attempts - does anyone know what it is called? I have forgotten :(
[16:30] <jerbear> MidasWS: -f
[16:30] <grass0101> jerbear: the samba server is running ubuntu as well, should I set up NFS between the two machines?  I was going to use SBACKUP, but I have "@" symbols in my passord which broke it's login string for scp
[16:30] <jerbear> arakthor: denyhosts
[16:31] <arakthor> jerbear: thanks
[16:31] <dury> xmms it's available but not in the databse
[16:31] <mateusz_g> bye
[16:31] <krulle> iooo
[16:31] <dury> gess
[16:31] <MatBoy> damn why the hack are my windows opened on the wrong screen ?
[16:31] <Intangir> grass0101: nfs is faster, but you have to make sure the username/group settings are set correctly across both machines
[16:31] <dury> wanna xmms
[16:31] <jerbear> grass0101: i think rsync works best over ssh... it's what i use for backups. if you don't use windows, stay away from samba
[16:31] <hiptobecubic> What is the point of gksu over sudo? i just tried them both and gksu is even a tad slower
[16:32] <Moppa^> hi, my networkspeed has dropped to a very low rate the last couple of days. won't go over 80kb/s and it doesnt matter wheter i download files from ftp locally or external http. Anyone got an idea?
[16:32] <Intangir> dury: ?
[16:32] <CShadowRun> Is there any way to make terminal have timestamps?
[16:32] <shoonya> there is a nice launch effect provided when an application is launched in hardy, which tool provides this effect ?
[16:32] <jerbear> CShadowRun: what do you mean?
[16:32] <dury> it was really fashion and reliable
[16:32] <spaceninja> is there a graphical app to configure fstab?
[16:32] <bazhang> dury either compile yourself or get audacious
[16:32] <Intangir> dury: you can still install it
[16:32] <jerbear> spaceninja: gvim ;)
[16:32] <CShadowRun> jerbear i mean like, so when something is printed out or something is outputted, it shows the time next to it
[16:32] <Intangir> dury: you can get the package, ill link it just a sec
[16:32] <CShadowRun> So you can work out a timescale on errors being produced
[16:32] <jerbear> CShadowRun: ls -l
[16:32] <Intangir> dury: ya and screw audacious
[16:32] <Intangir> it sucks
[16:32] <dury> ok
[16:32] <MidasWS> When I'm in a dir how do I remove all the subdirs and files in it:  rm -fvx *.*   ?
[16:33] <spaceninja> jerbear: there should be a app for fstab
[16:33] <jerbear> MidasWS: -r
[16:33] <CShadowRun> jerbear how does ... outputting the contents of a folder help me? >.>
[16:33] <jerbear> spaceninja: it's a simple text file
[16:33] <jerbear> CShadowRun: i don't understand what you're asking
[16:34] <arakthor> CShadowRun, jerbear: Do you mean having it display the time whnever you get a prompt in a terminal?
[16:34] <CShadowRun> jerbear you use IRC, you know what a time stamp is right?
[16:34] <designerman> How can I view my ip address etc?
[16:34] <CShadowRun> When someone types, it's prefixed with the time that the typed it.
[16:34] <krulle> hellow $µ
[16:34] <jerbear> CShadowRun: yes
[16:34] <CShadowRun> this is a timestamp --> [16:34:19] [CShadowRun] When someone types, it's prefixed with the time that the typed it.
[16:34] <MidasWS> ty jerbear
[16:34] <krulle> beryl voor de nieuwe linux
[16:34] <CShadowRun> I want timestamps in the terminal.
[16:34] <krulle> hoe heet dat ??
[16:34] <jerbear> CShadowRun: you said you wanted to see the times when you listed files
[16:34] <spaceninja> jerbear: yes, but I want to do everything with graphical apps
[16:34] <spaceninja> but I guess there isn't one
[16:34] <douye> krulle, compiz ?
[16:34] <jerbear> CShadowRun: what shell are you using?

[16:37] <jerbear> spaceninja: ubuntu is about as close as you get, but as you get more into your system, the more you'll have to do in the command line
[16:37] <spaceninja> jerbear: yes, but linux wont beat windows until everything has rock solid graphical gui configuration

[16:37] <grass0101> jerbear: thanks I'll give that a try
[16:37] <octoberdan> How would I take the output of ls and display only the text between "foo" and "bar" between for each line?

[16:38] <Moppa^> np
[16:38] <edmond> mic problem any 1 can help ?
[16:38] <octoberdan> spaceninja: Despite the goal of windows to beat Gnu/Linux and MacOS
[16:38] <octoberdan> I'm sorry, *Microsoft ;-)
[16:38] <jerbear> spaceninja: it's already a better OS, it just has a higher learning curve
[16:38] <punzada> ^^
[16:38] <punzada> well said.
[16:38] <punzada> :)
[16:38] <punzada> and again, 'better' is subjective
[16:38] <douye> I just installed firefox <IP_ADDRESS> on my hardy, but now it wont auto start when i order other programs to do it.. how can i fix that ?
[16:38] <bazhang> !ot
[16:39] <jerbear> spaceninja: when i say 'better', i don't mean your grandparents can admin it... that's just ridiculous
[16:39] <Moppa^> hi, my networkspeed has dropped to a very low rate the last couple of days. won't go over 80kb/s and it doesnt matter wheter i download files from ftp locally or external http. Anyone got an idea?
[16:39] <dury> it's not bad audacious
[16:40] <gordonjcp> spaceninja: why should everything have graphical admin?
[16:40] <spaceninja> the thing is that I've used a distro which everything is configured through the terminal by editing config files. Now I just wanted to see if there is a distro that does EVERYTHING through graphical apps
[16:40] <octoberdan> bazhang: And #ubuntuforum is also for random chatter ;-)
[16:40] <gordonjcp> spaceninja: that would make it really hard to use
[16:40] <Hali_303> hi!
[16:40] <Intangir> xmms is better than audacious
[16:40] <bazhang> spaceninja, please stay on topic here thanks

[16:41] <rsk> Radit: wtf?
[16:41] <Radit> does hardy heron not use gnome splash screens?
[16:41] <Trae> But when I try and switch between  "None Normal and Extra" I get "Desktop effects could not be enabled."
[16:41] <john__> 3~
[16:41] <rsk> Radit: it does use it by default.
[16:41] <rsk> Radit: but you can disable it.
[16:41] <Pici> Trae: What video card do you have?
[16:42] <octoberdan> dury: set it up as a "preffered application" I believe. I'm not using Gnome so I can't double check
[16:42] <octoberdan> dury: But it should be something like that in the settings
[16:42] <hockeymachine> does anyone have a recomendation for a wireless utility... networkmanager seems to disconnect/reconnect to the wrong one alot

[16:43] <Pici> Trae: nevermind,  I didnt see the first part of the question
[16:43] <benovic> Auto BCC does not work in Evolution Ubuntu (Hardy). is there a solution for this bug?
[16:43] <gordonjcp> hockeymachine: that sounds more like a problem with your connection than networkmanager

[16:46] <Moppa^> hiptobecubic - don't know actually.
[16:46] <Intangir> xmms should be a part of ubuntu. period.. the reason its not been updated in so long is cause it hasnt needed it!. the plugin system allowed any new systems to be supported without having to touch it

[16:57] <livingdaylight> gordonjcp: with xp it picks it up right away but only every time... the problem lies with Ubuntu i'm afraid to say

[16:58] <TrioTorus> why are certain packages kept back? Is there an apt command that tells me more?
[16:58] <pwolfe> is there a better channel I should ask this question?

[16:59] <Trae> did I join the wrong channel?
[16:59] <pwolfe> i configured another machine the same way, but ubuntu 7.04.  now this 8.04 box freezes. I have a thread open in the networking section of the ubuntu forums that explains it a bit better
[17:00] <Kl4m> Trae: this is a weird filename but it's valid. You'll need a lot of \ to refer to it on a command line
[17:00] <arakthor> eh, Pici, sorry to bother, but I'm reading the man page for dash - if I use variables (eg.  home=/place) it's unclear whether dash expects $home or ${home} to retrieve the value later on - do you know?
[17:00] <enixar> could some one tell me the shortcut to expand my desktop?
[17:01] <Pici> arakthor: I dont. Sorry.  You can change the symlink for /bin/sh to point to /bin/bash instead of dash if you really like

[17:01] <Dr_willis> Pici, theres a better way to change the default shell from dash to bash.
[17:01] <Pici> christoz: is there?
[17:01] <Pici> er, Dr_willis ?
[17:01] <Dr_willis> Pici,  i think its 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure bash' (or was it sh, or dash)
[17:01] <dury> spaceninja: its future
[17:01] <Pici> christoz: Did something wrong happen when doing the upgrade?
[17:01] <W8TAH> hey folks -- given the recent publication of a vunerability in the ssh keys -- how do i (a) patch to correct and (b) regenerate my keys to secure my systems again?

[17:02] <dimedo> is it normal, that firefox does not trust the CA which i have enabled through installation of the ca-certificates packet? (for example CAcert class 3)

[17:14] <arakthor> ipei: is there a howto for that in the forum or did you finaggle it yourself?
[17:15] <livingdaylight> gordonjcp: by the way my signal is perfectly good

[17:20] <dury> hey guys?
[17:20] <livingdaylight> gordonjcp: i know... and sometimes it works right away and other times it doesn't (in Ubuntu) with XP it works right away everytime, so i know its not the signal. Ubuntu has issues with networking. Don't you believe it?
[17:20] <gordonjcp> livingdaylight: all OSes have issues with networking
[17:20] <PaRaSiTe2> gordonjcp: Well, it works perfectly on Windows.
[17:20] <PaRaSiTe2> Just not Ubuntu.
[17:20] <dury> how do I install this -> xmms_1.2.10+20070601.orig.tar.gz
[17:20] <gordonjcp> PaRaSiTe2: is it a software modem?
[17:21] <PaRaSiTe2> gordonjcp: Yeah.
[17:21] <PaRaSiTe2> But I got working drivers.
[17:21] <arakthor> dury: you unpack it (double click on it or use tar -xvvzf xmms* ) and then there should be a file called INSTALL or README that will give directions
[17:21] <FuzzyFox0> hey all

[17:26] <Pici> Gin: Because Gutsy has already been released.  Supported releases do not mean that the packages will be kept up to date, only means that security patches will be released.

[17:26] <ramukmar> hiptobecubic: you can stop rhythmbox from launching when you connect an ipod, not sure if that's exactly what you want
[17:27] <gordonjcp> FuzzyFox0: adjust the screen resolution to suit your monitor, and enable your wifi
[17:27] <FuzzyFox0> it not working
[17:27] <hiptobecubic> gordonjcp, if it's open and i mount my ipod rhythmbox tries to search it for playable files and finds all kinds of things because i use rockbox instead of itunes

[17:28] <Gin> but yet, there is no update from ff3-b4 to ff3-b5
[17:28] <Pici> Gin: Then that package has not been updated in backports.
[17:28] <hiptobecubic> gordonjcp, or is there a way i can rebuild the itunes style database so it doesn't take forever searching everything?
[17:28] <douye> dury: it just wont start or do you get a error ?
[17:28] <FuzzyFox0> gnubie: and the wireless?
[17:28] <hiptobecubic> gordonjcp, just the database files
[17:28] <ramukmar> hiptobecubic: you can disable the ipod plugin in rhythmbox...that should stop it i guess
[17:28] <gordonjcp> hiptobecubic: you can stop rhythmbox launching when you plug an ipod in
[17:28] <gordonjcp> ramukmar: yea, that too
[17:28] <hiptobecubic> ramukmar, i tried that and it had no effect on anything.

[17:29] <hiptobecubic> gordonjcp, yeah i did that and now it doesn't open. which is good. but if it is open and there is an ipod it starts searching
[17:29] <ramukmar> hiptobecubic: starts searching even after you disable the plugin? weird

[17:30] <douye> gordonjcp: if he wants to use xmms, let him it works fine here
[17:30] <gordonjcp> dury: sorry, audacious

[17:35] <vlt> Hello. I installed Ubuntu using the CD installer. I chose the suggested option "shrinks existing NTFS on /dev/hda1". GRUB installed fine and I can boot Ubuntu (from hda5/hd(0,4)). But when I select "Windows XP" I get "Can't read ... Press Ctrl+Alt+Del" from NTLDR.
[17:35] <vlt> When I restore the first 63 sectors bytes of hda (everything before hda1) Windows boots. But as soon as I create a 2nd partition (even without installing GRUB) Windows boot fails. Any idea what went wrong and how to fix it?

[17:37] <sshock> Anyone know how to set get a public IP on my ubuntu server?  I've done it before with Comcast but now I have DSL.
[17:37] <arakthor> sshock: wget http://checkip.dyndns.com
[17:37] <sshock> I read something about changing my router to bridge mode, but I'm kinda lost.
[17:37] <arakthor> or something like that
[17:37] <gordonjcp> sshock: What exactly are you trying to do?
[17:38] <sshock> I want my linux box to be my firewall / router.
[17:38] <arakthor> sshock: use my method, dyndns will report the ip that you are connected through (your 'public' ip)
[17:38] <sshock> It will be doing site-to-site vpn, among other things.
[17:38] <vlt> gordonjcp: Yes, I completely restored the first 63 sectors, so the partition table was restored, too. There's only hda1 now and Windows boots. The size of the NTFS is actually half, so at least this part of the partitioning process worked. Now I tried to create the 2nd partition for Ubuntu manually (not touching anything else in the boot area), but Windows doens't boot. Any idea?
[17:38] <Nostahl> anyone here using ubuntu 64
[17:38] <sshock> arakthor: not sure if that's going to be good enough
[17:38] <AtomicMongoose> iptables - strongswan    Easy.  I use Slackware for my firewalls.
[17:39] <sshock> I've already got a working setup with ipsec racoon
[17:39] <PKBoo> hey, I'm fairly new to Ubuntu, and I was wondering if anyone could tell me if I set up my partitions correctly?
[17:39] <sshock> The problem is simply I need to connect directly to the Internet which is normal with Comcast but not Qwest.
[17:40] <AtomicMongoose> I had trouble with Racoon connecting to non linux  VPNs.  Cisco, Watchguard, etc. etc don't seem to work well with it.
[17:40] <AtomicMongoose> I have qwest setup in many client locations connected directly
[17:40] <sshock> I'm actually connecting to cisco vpn, and it works believe it or not :)
[17:40] <AtomicMongoose> you need to configure the actiontec or whatever you use for a static ip arrangement,  shutdown DHCP/NAT and you are good to go
[17:41] <sshock> It's 2wire
[17:41] <AtomicMongoose> there's extensive documention on qwests site for that.
[17:41] <gordonjcp> vlt: not really, but restoring the first 63 sectors will splat your newly-created partition table ;-)
[17:41] <sshock> I found a page that tells how to make it work in "bridge" mode, which I think is what I need to do, but then after that I'm lost.

[17:43] <vlt> gordonjcp: Yes, sure. Now windows boots and uses the smaller NTFS on the full size hda1. I wanted to create hda2 to access the installed Ubuntu again, but then windows doesn't boot anymore.

[17:44] <AtomicMongoose> I have shrunk many an NTFS partition but not in the ubuntu setup,  you might try using knoppix and qparted or parted to do that

[17:44] <Kl4m> AtomicMongoose: xmms --> audacious
[17:45] <douye> vlt: i have kinda, i just made a free space thing and did the standard partition option after it
[17:45] <sshock> hmm, I could buy an ATM card?  That sounds harder though...
[17:45] <Zombocom> vlt yes, the GRUB bootloader allows you to select it on startup, I reccomend shrinking the volume in windows to prevent damage to the ntfs partition though
[17:45] <vlt> douye, Zombocom: Hmmmm, my Windows won't start anymore. Only if I restore the original partiton table.
[17:46] <douye> vlt, then you must have done something wrong.. :/ as mine still boots perfectly
[17:46] <Zombocom> douye did you edit the partition table in linux or windows
[17:46] <Zombocom> and vlt do you have grub installed
[17:46] <douye> zombocom, vlt: in the linux installer
[17:46] <ben__> anyone know how to add a network on x-chat
[17:47] <AtomicMongoose> x-chat  network list
[17:47] <ben__> wwhere
[17:47] <Eulex> perhaps the "Add" button?
[17:47] <Zombocom> I seriously need help guys
[17:47] <AtomicMongoose> ctrl-s works too Ben
[17:47] <Eulex> (in the network list)
[17:47] <Zombocom> the package list is broken
[17:47] <Zombocom> like synaptic updated the list of packages to nothing
[17:47] <AtomicMongoose> click add,.  rename  the New Network
[17:47] <AtomicMongoose> fill i the blanks
[17:47] <vlt> Zombocom: I had it installed, saw the boot menu. Ubuntu started fine, but Windows not. After restoring the first 63 sectors of the hd (erasing GRUB and the other partitions from the table) Windows boots.
[17:47] <ben__> i see the network list but the network i want (irc.gnome.org) isnt there
[17:47] <sshoc1> hmm, I just switched my router to PPPoE and it's still working.
[17:47] <ben__> i cant find any way to add one
[17:48] <sshoc1> So do I switch my router to bridge mode, then on my linux box I run pppoe client or something?
[17:48] <AtomicMongoose> the interface is sort of.. stupid.  it don't save changes unless you tab through everything
[17:48] <Zombocom> ah vlt there is a chance when editing the ntfs partition that it gets damaged
[17:48] <Kl4m> Zombocom: did you filter the package list?
[17:48] <AtomicMongoose> look for something call  New Network in the networks list, I bet your setup is there
[17:48] <Zombocom> Kl4m no clue what that means
[17:49] <douye> zombocom: you checked your settings of the synaptic ?
[17:49] <Zombocom> douye hold on
[17:49] <Kl4m> Zombocom: in synaptic there are buttons bottom left to filter the packages by state
[17:49] <vlt> Zombocom: But it doesn't seem to be damaged. When I recreate hda1 as the only (large) partition, Windows runs fine.
[17:49] <ringer> can anyone suggest a good icon set? something that would go well with an all white theme
[17:49] <TheOV> i have this problem: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=4964937
[17:50] <Zombocom> oh poo
[17:50] <Zombocom> hold on
[17:50] <sshoc1> When I use pppoe is my interface going to be called something like ppp0, or will it still be eth0 ?
[17:50] <Zombocom> lemme get a pastebin for the error message I just recieved
[17:50] <dury> anyway
[17:50] <hiptobecubic> i'm trying to install pygtk but failing, can anyone walk  me through it?
[17:50] <AtomicMongoose> ppp should give you a ppp0 type interface
[17:51] <sshoc1> ok, thx
[17:51] <Zombocom> Kl4m, douye: this is the error message I recieve when trying to update the package list: http://pastebin.ca/1019187
[17:51] <pdlnhrd> whast is the best way to update 6.04 to 8.04?   do i need to go through all the upgrades to get there?
[17:51] <TheOV> My ADSL connection used to work in Ubuntu no problem, but now it's not working at all. My network adapter connects directly to the ADSL modem (no router). Even the live CD doesn't connect, so I don't think it's a problem with my configuration. I have openSuSE and Windows XP installed as well as Ubuntu, and they both connect no problem. Sometimes in Ubuntu it spontaneously connects, but normally it doesn't. I try dhclient, but it always ends without co
[17:52] <dury> in 7.04 it was the cube desktop running in 8.04 it's different and now does't run. anyone can walk me through, please
[17:52] <needbeer> http://www.dasdeutschlandspiel.de/index.php?page=beg.php&id=4410
[17:52] <douye> dury: you mean the beryl/compiz-fusion ?
[17:53] <Kl4m> Zombocom: Maybe synaptic/apt uses a proxy. Check the network tab in preferences if you want to connect directly
[17:53] <dury> douye : compiz-fusion
[17:53] <ben345> anyone know of a gtk irc channel
[17:53] <ben345> or development
[17:53] <Eulex> ben345, it's on irc.gnome.org, #gtk+ I believe
[17:53] <ben345> gtk+ ah
[17:53] <Aspirino> sera a tutti, ho un piccolissimo problema. Con Compiz-Fusion attivo, quando ridimensione le finestre, resta sui bordi una riga blu (il colore che assume la finestra durante il ridimensionamento).
[17:53] <Eulex> !it
[17:54] <Zombocom> Kl4m it says direct connection, I can take a screenshot and everything
[17:54] <TheOV> ben345: there's #gtk+ here on freenode as well
[17:54] <Eulex> but it's much smaller.
[17:54] <needbeer> http://www.dasdeutschlandspiel.de/index.php?page=beg.php&id=4410
[17:54] <pdlnhrd> can anyone give advice on upgrading 6.04 to 8.04 ?
[17:54] <douye> dury: you selected the effects at system->preferences->visual settings or something? (dunno the english options as i got dutch :P)
[17:54] <TheOV> pdlnhrd: use update-manager
[17:54] <pdlnhrd> TheOV:  it failes
[17:55] <TheOV> is it 6.04 or 6.06?
[17:55] <Zombocom> Kl4m this happened last time I tried to install anon-proxy too
[17:55] <Kl4m> pdlnhrd: first upgrade 6.04 to 6.10 then 6.10 to 8.04, using those instructions:
[17:55] <Kl4m> !upgrade
[17:55] <vlt> Kl4m: There's no 6.04
[17:55] <pdlnhrd> The error i am getting is that it could not initiate dbus
[17:55] <Zombocom> Kl4m anon-proxy changes some setting somewhere where I don't know where it is to direct apt through localhost, then the program just doesn't work, I just tried uninstalling it to restore the original settings but nothing was fixed and I think I'm in a worse situation as a result
[17:55] <Kl4m> vlt, pdlnhrd, 6.06 that is
[17:56] <pdlnhrd> Kl4m:  yes i just realized that
[17:56] <vlt> I thought upgrading LTS->LTS was possible ...
[17:56] <sportman1280_> i was just curious as to why apport was disabled by default in hardy
[17:56] <TheOV> Zombocom: try apt-get remove [package] --purge
[17:57] <fbc> What is the easiest way to setup and encrypted filesystem? What package should I use?
[17:57] <Arrick> hey all, anyone know of a mirror that downloads faster then 54kbps?
[17:57] <nullie> vlt, it is not possible?
[17:57] <pdlnhrd> it doesn't doesn't get me past the dbus error
[17:57] <fbc> ls
[17:57] <gordonjcp> Arrick: if you poke about in the settings for synaptic, it will give you the option to find the best mirror
[17:57] <TheOV> Arrick: go to administration -> software sources -> select server
[17:57] <gordonjcp> TheOV: that's the one
[17:57] <Arrick> gordonjcp, im talking about downloading the install disk, not updates
[17:58] <gordonjcp> Arrick: ah
[17:58] <dury> douye : it's System > Preferences > Advanced Desktop Effects Settings
[17:58] <gordonjcp> Arrick: then pick one that's geographically closest
[17:58] <douye> dury: ah k :) changed it there ?
[17:58] <gordonjcp> Arrick: if you see one that's associated with your ISP, that's the one to go for
[17:58] <Arrick> gordonjcp, the closest ones are all -12kbps
[17:58] <Zombocom> TheOV it removed all related packages but nothing changed, I'm still without a package list
[17:58] <Arrick> 24.5 hours to download a 599mb cd
[17:58] <gordonjcp> Arrick: maybe you're just on a rubbish connection
[17:58] <Arrick> not where I am
[17:59] <slackpipe> Arrick: can you not use the torrent?
[17:59] <Arrick> slackd00d, I didnt see one available
[17:59] <Kl4m> Zombocom: would you have a file in /etc/apt/apt.conf.d related to your whatever proxy?
[17:59] <needbeer> http://www.dasdeutschlandspiel.de/index.php?page=beg.php&id=4410
[17:59] <slackpipe> arrick: i think they are at the bottom of the download page...sec i'll get a link
[18:00] <TheOV> Kl4m: that didn't work last time i tried
[18:00] <ubud> !xsane
[18:00] <Zombocom> Kl4m I don't see anything with the word proxy in it in /etc/apt/apt.conf.d
[18:01] <TheOV> Zombocom: i wasn't able to before either
[18:01] <slackpipe> arrick: http://releases.ubuntu.com/8.04/ on the bottom of the page
[18:01] <Morph3us> hi.. i need support.. i have ubuntu hardy.. my graphical session has closed several times.. how can i detect the error?
[18:01] <TheOV> Zombocom: try sudo dpkg-reconfigure apt-get
[18:01] <nullie> Morph3us, read /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[18:01] <Zombocom> TheOV thanks
[18:01] <TheOV> and sudo apt-get autoremove --purge anon-proxy
[18:02] <TheOV> can anyone help with my problem?
[18:02] <Zombocom> TheOV what's your problem?
[18:02] <nate_> anyone familiar with compiz-fuzion and emerald?
[18:02] <TheOV> My ADSL connection used to work in Ubuntu no problem, but now it's not working at all. My network adapter connects directly to the ADSL modem (no router). Even the live CD doesn't connect, so I don't think it's a problem with my configuration. I have openSuSE and Windows XP installed as well as Ubuntu, and they both connect no problem.

[18:03] <Rippofunk> stbain: I compiled php4 from source and it seems to work, it was a pain in the a#$ but it works
[18:03] <Kl4m> #compiz-fusion
[18:03] <stbain> Rippofunk: nice
[18:03] <sa125> need help - my hardy freezes after the login screen. How can I see what's causing the problem?
[18:03] <Rippofunk> stbain: again though thanks for your help
[18:04] <stbain> Rippofunk: glad I could be of assistance. Don't forget to write up your disclaimer/release of liability.
[18:04] <Rippofunk> stbain: I will consider it if their business model seems to need it, ie they blame everyone else
[18:04] <Arrick> thanks slackpipe thats the quickest connection, although I dont see how the iso went from 599 mb to 425 just by using a torrent
[18:05] <nate_> compiz 0.6.1
[18:05] <ENeGMA> are there any reports/solutions about crashing issues with 8.04?
[18:05] <stbain> Rippofunk: if nothing else, use it as a tool drive home the fact that their beloved PHP4 is no longer a viable solution.
[18:05] <ENeGMA> ever since I've upgraded from 7.10 my computer has been locking up constantly
[18:05] <Xsploit_> hey
[18:06] <Xsploit_> so im using wubi, can i access my windows files ?
[18:06] <slackpipe> ENeGMA: does firefox crap out first and stop opening, and then terminal and then a total system freeze?
[18:06] <MindSpark> why doesn't chmod a-w work on ubuntu ?
[18:06] <ENeGMA> sometimes
[18:06] <ENeGMA> but not as often recently
[18:06] <Zombocom> TheOV, Kl4m: didn't work and TheOV I have no idea about your problem, sorry
[18:06] <ENeGMA> and not always
[18:06] <MindSpark> I tried writing a new /etc/resolv.conf and it keeps being changed by dhcp I am guessing
[18:06] <gordonjcp> !wubi
[18:06] <ENeGMA> sometimes it just freezes when left idle for a while
[18:06] <Rippofunk> stbain: yeah i hope so, it would be a fun project to migrate
[18:07] <nate_> I'm having a problem with Emerald, and i've been researching for this a while... anytime I maximize a window, the titlebar becomes a solid white
[18:07] <gordonjcp> Rippofunk: no-one should be using php4 any more
[18:07] <gordonjcp> Rippofunk: come to that, no-one should be using php any more
[18:07] <gordonjcp> ;-)
[18:07] <koheleth> how do I change to the slab menu?
[18:07] <Zombocom> !proxy
[18:08] <koheleth> !slab

[18:08] <koheleth> how do I change to the slab menu?
[18:09] <Zombocom> koheleth what is this slab menu you speak of
[18:09] <Zombocom> where is the slab
[18:09] <koheleth> the slab menu, what else would you call it
[18:09] <koheleth> for choosing apps
[18:10] <Zombocom> ah

[18:10] <Morph3us> nullie, while i was looking my xorg.log the xorg restarted itself again.. i am using an ATI Radeon X1270
[18:11] <sadiel> Hello guys. I have just installed a Creative Audigy SE in my Ubuntu 8.04 box. I have already disabled the integretad sound chip in my motherboard, but I can't get no sound yet. What should I do in order to have ubuntu use my newly installed sound card?
[18:11] <koheleth> http://news.opensuse.org/wp-content/uploads/2007/09/gnome-slab.png  this
[18:11] <nullie> Morph3us, try doing that from console
[18:11] <Morph3us> nullie, i was doing that from console
[18:11] <TheOV> sadiel: i have an audigy se too
[18:12] <nullie> Morph3us, and?
[18:12] <tim167> hi, can anyone help me install ubuntu to boot from a usb key, I get the login window, but after that it hangs at an empty desktop...any ideas ?
[18:12] <nullie> Morph3us, what's wrong?
[18:12] <TheOV> go in to system -> preferences  -> sound
[18:12] <European-African> hey, I downloaded the 7.10 alternative iso, but my cd burner is broken. Does anyone know of a method of mounting the iso and then booting into it as if it where running of a cd?
[18:12] <Daisuke_Laptop> no can do
[18:12] <Morph3us> nullie, i don't know what's wrong.. (i am newbie)
[18:12] <Slart> European-African: I don't think it's possible
[18:12] <koheleth> does no one know how to get the slab menu as stadard then?
[18:12] <koheleth> must be there somewhere
[18:13] <gordonjcp> European-African: dd it to a USB stick?
[18:13] <tim167> what does "kinit: no resume image, doing normal boot" mean ?
[18:13] <TheOV> sadiel: in system -> preferences -> sound, and it should show up as CA0106 or something
[18:13] <gordonjcp> koheleth: what's a "slab menu"?
[18:13] <koheleth> http://news.opensuse.org/wp-content/uploads/2007/09/gnome-slab.png
[18:13] <koheleth> that
[18:13] <European-African>  gordonjcp: what, the contents of the iso?
[18:13] <gordonjcp> tim167: it means just what it says
[18:13] <Philh> tim167, it means the machine wasn't hibernated and it's booting normally
[18:13] <gordonjcp> European-African: the actual iso itself
[18:13] <European-African> and then
[18:14] <sadiel> TheOV: thanks, gonna tweak with that!
[18:14] <piju_> hello, can i ask something ?
[18:14] <Ali_ix> koheleth: install gimmie package, and add it to gnoem-bar
[18:14] <Tyczek> can you tell me which version of rtorrent is in hardy?
[18:14] <Philh> piju_, no
[18:14] <European-African> gordonjcp: and then
[18:14] <gordonjcp> tim167: there isn't a resume image, so the kernel is booting normally
[18:14] <TheOV> sadiel: also, you can apt-get install alsaconf-gtk, and then it will show up in the preferences menu as "Default Sound Card", and then you can select the card from a dropdown menu
[18:14] <gordonjcp> European-African: and then boot off it
[18:14] <tim167>  Philh: but it doesnt load the desktop, it stays empty
[18:14] <gordonjcp> !ask | piju_
[18:14] <vandeilson> oii
[18:14] <piju_> Philh; ok
[18:14] <Ali_ix> koheleth: it is similar: http://beatniksoftware.com/gimmie/Main_Page
[18:14] <sadiel> Thanks a lot TheOV
[18:14] <tim167> gordonjcp: its not booting really, the desktop doesnt load...
[18:14] <gordonjcp> European-African: might not work, but it might be worth a shot
[18:14] <Philh> tim167, that's probably unrelated to the message you're reporting
[18:14] <koheleth> Ali_ix, thanks
[18:15] <ramukmar> koheleth: you'll want to install gnome-main-menu, gimmie is similar but not the slab menu you're looking for
[18:15] <piju_> ok, i see the difference between gutsy and hardy ?
[18:15] <gordonjcp> tim167: the desktop not loading isn't the same as not booting
[18:15] <European-African> ok
[18:15] <piju_> why hardy use pulseaudio ?
[18:15] <Morph3us> nullie, here is my xorg.0.log http://www.pastebin.ca/1019209
[18:15] <koheleth> ramukmar, is it not in ubuntu then?
[18:15] <ramukmar> koheleth: it is in the repos
[18:15] <Morph3us> piju_, yes, hardy uses pulseaudio
[18:15]  * Linxster-brb- Hi all i need help i am running Ubunt desk top on my server box i never used linux of any kind at all i need help getting php my sql apache plus a
[18:15]  * Linxster-brb- t like a pc no ftp at all as of yet
[18:15] <tim167> gordonjcp, ok, any idea how i can get the desktop to load ?
[18:15] <koheleth> ok
[18:16] <European-African> gordonjcp: how about mounting the iso and then copying the contents to the usb, then booting from it?
[18:16] <piju_> Morph3us; why pulseaudio ? why not alsa ?
[18:16] <Pici> Linxster-brb-: Please dont send your questions as /me actions
[18:16]  * Linxster-brb- i didn't use /me sorry
[18:16] <Morph3us> piju_, i don't know exactly why, i head that pulseaudio is more advanced that alsa..
[18:17] <Ali_ix> Linxster-brb-:  you are using that already
[18:17] <gordonjcp> European-African: you'd need to make it bootable, but that would work
[18:17] <grumpygramps> Linxster-brb-: Goto System > Administration > Synaptic Package Manager, then go to Edit > Mark Packages by Task, and check on LAMP server, then click okay, and then apply
[18:17] <piju_> Morph3us; means uses more memory than alsa ?
[18:17] <TheOV> Morph3us: pulseaudio uses alsa
[18:17] <European-African> gordonjcp: ok thanx
[18:17] <Morph3us> thanks TheOV
[18:18] <TheOV> Morph3us: pulseaudio takes care of all (or most) sound streams, and outputs them through ASLA
[18:18] <TheOV> *ALSA
[18:18] <TheOV> it allows multiple streams, etc.
[18:18] <Xsploit> so using wubi, is there a way to get my files from windows onto ubuntu ?
[18:18] <teleyinex> hi, everyone
[18:18] <Morph3us> somebody here has ATI Radeon? i am having troubles with Hardy that i don't get in Gutsy

[18:19] <Pici> teleyinex: Try asking in #ubuntu-offtopic, your question isnt related to Ubuntu support.
