[09:08] <tarelerulz> I have read of gizmo  as being a sip/im client ,but it don't have any Ubuntu package nor does it post the source on there page.  Read that Pidgin will do gtalk soon and Kopete does it with a patch . Is there a client that does it all ready ?
[09:08] <damo22> archman: sudo fdisk -l   to pastebin and i can take a quick look
[09:09] <madmanwoo> I have checked to make sure the video card drivers are still enabled but they are. Does anyone know what could be causing this.
[09:09] <archman> damo22: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/61205/
[09:09] <seamus7> madmanwoo: try restarting X ... CTRL-ALT-BKSPC
[09:09] <friedtofu> hm. anyone know when ff 3.0 is coming out?
[09:09] <madmanwoo> ok
[09:09] <Wiseguy> hey guys, for some reason my cameras memory card wont show up when i plug my camera into the usb port... when i check dmesg it says that a new USB device was detected and everything, but it doesnt seem to assign the memory card to a device so i can browse the pics... anyone know whats up?
[09:10] <seamus7> Wiseguy: can you find the memory card in Nautilus?
[09:11] <damo22> archman: how wierd, partition 4 and 5 are the wrong way around in the list
[09:11] <brock> help me plze
[09:11] <archman> damo22: you mean sda4 sda5?
[09:11] <Wiseguy> seamus7, ahh it did actually..
[09:11] <Wiseguy> thanks
[09:12] <damo22> archman: yeah
[09:12] <friedtofu> no.. i get a text saying ... Partition table entries are not in disk order when i do that command
[09:12] <damo22> sda5 uses 3368-3441 and sda4 uses 3442-...
[09:12] <seamus7> Wiseguy: if you want it to show up on your desktop you probably just to enable that in gconf-editor or Removable Drives & Media ... something like that
[09:13] <archman> damo22: it will definitely be the most secure to do my version...the only thing i worry about is that flag for ntfs: boot. What's with that?
[09:14] <damo22> archman: i am assuming sda1 contains the xp system that you want to wipe
[09:14] <tarelerulz> What does Platform-Independent Source
[09:14] <_rootborn> I remove my grub and delete /boot/grub/files, how to put it back ?
[09:15] <archman> damo22: yeah, sda1 is xp, sda2 ubuntu, sda4 HAS to be left, and sda5 swap...
[09:15] <archman> damo22: so i thought of removing sda1, sda2...
[09:15] <archman> damo22: but that flag gets on my way...
[09:15] <damo22> archman: yeah why not remove sda1 and sda2 and make a new sda1
[09:16] <agent> oh YEAH this desktop cube thing is faaaaaancy
[09:16] <archman> damo22: i will remove sda1 and sda2 and in ubuntu installer i will tell to install on largest free space
[09:16] <archman> damo22: so he will create what he needs, i just need sda4 to be intact!
[09:17] <archman> damo22: and to be able to mount on new ubuntu, ofcourse...
[09:17] <mac^> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h4iyksLeo7w&feature=bz301
[09:17] <damo22> archman: you can even remove sda3 and sda5 and make a new sda3
[09:17] <_rootborn> I remove my grub and delete /boot/grub/files, i use ubuntu, how can I reinstall my grub back ?
[09:18] <tarelerulz> What does Platform-Independent  Source mean? that mean it will run on 32 bit as well as 64 bit maybe ?
[09:18] <mac^> tarel: the complete opposite
[09:18] <tarelerulz> Mac what could it mean?
[09:18] <archman> damo22: yeah, remove everything except sda4; but btw: what is sda3?
[09:19] <mac^> tarelerulz: only for a specific arch
[09:19] <archman> damo22: LBA?? part of something?
[09:19] <damo22> archman: you made an extended partition called sda3 with just enough room for sda5 to fit inside it
[09:19] <damo22> archman its pointless
[09:19] <agent> ok... so can i have a 3d space where i can arbitrarily place windows as 3d objects (firefox and terminals and things)
[09:19] <agent> ?
[09:20] <mac^> tarelerulz: preety much what ever it is specified for
[09:20] <agent> kinda like a mindmap is what im thinking
[09:20] <archman> damo22: should i definitely wipe it all of?
[09:20] <damo22> archman: yeah wipe sda1 sda2 sda3 and sda5
[09:20] <DistroJockey> archman: I would backup sda4 if you can :)
[09:21] <archman> damo22: then the installer will do the rest...
[09:21] <tarelerulz> mac^ The reason I ask is I read that all the time and I really don't understand what it mean or could mean as fare as if I could install that program or library
[09:21] <archman> DistroJockey: it's 30gigs, i will try...tnx
[09:21] <DistroJockey> archman: your partition table looks a little messy
[09:21] <damo22> DistroJockey: thats for sure
[09:22] <archman> DistroJockey: if i erase sda1, which is boot flaged, will there be problems later?
[09:22] <ubuntu> what up
[09:22] <icesword> !info lumaqq
[09:22] <DistroJockey> archman: In the long run it would be better to wipe the lot and start fresh :)
[09:22] <mac^> ubuntu: sup
[09:22] <DistroJockey> archman: shouldn't be
[09:22] <damo22> archman: boot flag is only for xp dont worry about it
[09:22] <mac^> tarelerulz: url for the program?
[09:22] <icesword> ubotu, you there
[09:22] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about you there - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[09:22] <archman> damo22: ok guys!

[09:23] <Wiseguy> does anyone know how i can resize a window that im not able to get at with the mouse? and when i right click on the window and try and resize or move it doesnt actually let me do anything
[09:23] <DistroJockey> archman: using fdisk you can toggle the boot flag on and off using " a "
[09:23] <archman> DistroJockey: it doesn't mean much to me, don't understand this flags...
[09:24] <tarelerulz> mac^  here is the program download page http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=146406
[09:24] <archman> DistroJockey: what is this boot flag used for?
[09:24] <DistroJockey> archman: just means that that's the partition that gets booted by the MBR
[09:24] <archman> archman:hhmmm.
[09:24] <archman> ups
[09:24] <Jemt> Greetz. May I ask what icon set people in here prefer?  http://powerzone.dk/Screenshot11.png  vs.  http://powerzone.dk/Screenshot22.png
[09:24] <DistroJockey> archman: I think ;)
[09:25] <mac^> ok hang on
[09:26] <archman> DistroJockey: im gonna erase everything except sda4; there really shouldn't be any problems; the partition can't disappear just like that...no? hehe
[09:26] <damo22> archman: good plan ... make sure you dont have stuff saved in /home because you'll lose that data
[09:26] <DistroJockey> archman: not sure what the affect of those boundary issues have
[09:27] <mac^> tarelerulz: that's fine you can use it
[09:27] <archman> damo22: remastersys made it all backed up on one dvd...i recommend that tool to everyone!
[09:27] <DistroJockey> archman: but you have the fdisk data in the pastebin, so even if something happens to it, it can be rebuilt
[09:27] <tarelerulz> mac^ for 64 bit Ubuntu maybe ?
[09:28] <Tengu> hello
[09:28] <fragged> Mhm, can anyone recommend a good grub bootdisk? I cant boot this laptop on its own yet :(

[09:28] <Imaginal> What is the difference between "sessions" and "services?"

[09:40] <whadar> I am running debian now, and I want to install Ubuntu 8.04... Do I have to download and burn the whole 700MB or there something smaller?
[09:40] <friedtofu> i was looking... i doubt it...
[09:40] <whadar> maybe I can install the installer package or something?
[09:41] <recoy^> a
[09:41] <seamus7> whadar: how is debian compared to gutsy?
[09:42] <whadar> seamus: debian is awesome but I want to try gusty
[09:42] <hi365> my ubuntu system seems to go in to standby after about an hour of inactivity, how can I disable that?
[09:42] <whadar> is there any installer package?
[09:42] <mickpc> does anyone n
[09:42] <mark__> For Ubuntu?
[09:42] <seamus7> whadar: Ubuntu 8.04 is Hardy Heron ... Ubuntu Gutsy Gibbon is 7.10
[09:43] <seamus7> whadar: you want an installer that overwrites debian?
[09:43] <icesword> seamus7, whatyouwant to know
[09:43] <mickpc> does anyone know how to get a usb hard drive (not pen drive) working?
[09:43] <seamus7> icesword: about debian?
[09:43] <icesword> you said how is compared to
[09:44] <icesword> mickpc, link it,sudo mount -a
[09:44] <icesword> ?
[09:44] <whadar> seamus7: yes sorry
[09:44] <seamus7> icesword: I'm just curious how the user experience compares between Ubuntu and Debian .... the same more or less  or one is more difficutl?
[09:44] <seamus7> whadar: hmmm let me check
[09:44] <icesword> that depends!
[09:44] <whadar> same almost :)
[09:44] <mickpc> thanks
[09:45] <icesword> you know debian is stable ,ubuntu is based on debian,ohhhh,come on,this is not good place to discuss which is better
[09:46] <friedtofu> eh.. debian sid -> debian testing -> debian stable...
[09:46] <ibou> zoo
[09:46] <friedtofu> they're basically the same... debian just takes more work
[09:46] <seamus7> friedtofu: what makes it take more work?
[09:47] <friedtofu> i remember trying out debian sarge 3.0 like a year or two back...
[09:47] <whadar> it's ironic that one can install ubuntu installer in windows and not on linux :)
[09:47] <whadar> or am I wrong?

[09:48] <sunbird> anyone help me out with manual partitioning of a dual-boot cryp setup in gutsy?

[09:57] <seamus7> madmanwoo: is your computer powerful enough ... they won't activate on a system with inadequate resources
[09:57] <Svenstaro> madmanwoo, they will only work after installing your graphics card drivers

[10:06] <seamus7> madmanwoo: does it stay active?
[10:06] <Jemt> Gaim is just an older version of Pidgin

[10:06] <HinHin> friedtofu, so true
[10:06] <madmanwoo> it removes all the programs sits on the desktop thinking for a while then just goes back to none and says can't enable visual effects
[10:07] <seamus7> I'm using Pidgin right now to access this IRC channel
[10:07] <friedtofu> xchat > pidgin for irc...
[10:07] <Jemt> oded: So what's the problem ?
[10:07] <seamus7> friedtofu: to do what specifically?
[10:07] <oded> Jemt
[10:07] <friedtofu> i just like they layout better
[10:07] <Jemt> oded: You describe two scenaries that both work
[10:07] <Jemt> described*
[10:08] <Jemt> scenarios*
[10:08] <friedtofu> it has the list of servers to the side, not in your cram'ed pidgin screen..
[10:08] <seamus7> friedtofu: oh I like the integration with Pidgin and having fewer programs running better.
[10:08] <oded> Jemt: sorry fix :  i just installed Ubuntu 7.10 gusty , and i found some bug... when i turn on my computer with the network cable plugged in , the ubuntu cant recognize my network card and i dont have network access  , and when i turn on my computer without the network cable its working fine , and i can connect my cable and start surfing on the net ? does it possible to fix this bug ?
[10:08] <friedtofu> haha ok.
[10:08] <jimqode> Wobbo, "cheese" does that, but i think it does it in software
[10:08] <Jemt> oded: Do you have multiple network adapters installed ?
[10:09] <bullgard4> Some days ago I deselected the service 'apache2' using rcconf. I restarted the computer. Now px auxf shows that apache2 has been started again. What did I do wrongly?
[10:09] <Jemt> oded: And are you using the Network Manager Applet for Gnome ?
[10:09] <Wobbo> jimqode, true
[10:09] <oded> Jemt: no , just 1 network card installed built-in on the motherboard

[10:09] <mark__> I need a jabber server with an irc transport
[10:09] <oded> Jemt: what is Network Manager Applet ? (i am new to Ubuntu)
[10:10] <madmanwoo> 128 video 1000mhz P4 306mb RAM
[10:10] <sunbird> i'm really stuck with this install.
[10:10] <Jemt> oded: What happens if you start your computer with the cable plugged in, start a console and type  'sudo /etc/init.d/network restart' ?
[10:10] <madmanwoo> like I said before it was working fine before i turn them off now I just can't turn them back on
[10:10] <Jemt> oded: That's a small tool in your system tray that enables you to connect to found networks (wired, wireless, mobile devices etc)
[10:10] <oded> Jemt: i get error eth0 .. cant find card ... someting like that
[10:11] <seamus7> madmanwoo: did you use the normal setting or the custom configuration setting previously?
[10:11] <Jemt> oded: "something like that" is useless. Provide me with the exact error message
[10:11] <madmanwoo> custom setting
[10:11] <oded> ok , i will checked it out
[10:11] <Jemt> oded: Also, what network card do you have ? (What chipset ) ?

[10:24] <earthling> nonewmsgs, fragged: cannot create regular file `/media/disk/moiht.txt': Read-only file system ; thats the error
[10:25] <bovineck> earthling some usb disks have a read only switch - does yours?
[10:25] <mattik> I need it for my school lesson
[10:25] <earthling> bovineck: no, it doesnt have one
[10:25] <bovineck> earthling try eject and remount
[10:26] <earthling> bovineck: tried that , not working
[10:27] <bovineck> earthling what about save on harddrive, then reboot and remount?
[10:27] <mark__> Are there no jabber servers that do irc?
[10:27] <earthling> bovineck:  ?
[10:27] <nonewmsgs> earthling what does command "mount" say
[10:28] <co_jomblo> hi
[10:28] <earthling> nonewmsgs: its auto mounting when i plug it in. no problem there, but nothing is happing when i try to copy things into it
[10:28] <nonewmsgs> earthling, mount command gives info about how it is mounting
[10:29] <bovineck> earthling make sure file is saved locally, then reboot and retry (usb drivers can be flaky).  I'd also try a save via a terminal (e.g. cp this_my_file /media/disk)
[10:29] <earthling> nonewmsgs: k,trying
[10:31] <swilky> hey all =)
[10:31] <swilky> can someone tell me why
[10:32] <earthling> nonewmsgs, bovineck : mounted it, then unounted it. after mounting tried writing into it, like cat filename. it says cant write . write protected
[10:32] <swilky> when i tar -zvf a file it says Cannot open: No such file or directory
[10:33] <nonewmsgs> swilky make sure that it is the same upper/lowercase
[10:33] <swilky> i just press tab
[10:33] <bovineck> earthling could be a fried usb - i lost one like that recently - have you tried it with another system?
[10:33] <swilky> and ot wrotes it automaticly
[10:33] <bovineck> earthling do you have another usb?
[10:34] <earthling> bovineck : doesnt work on widows, or anything else. other usb's work fine
[10:35] <yacc> Any docs how to recreate the initrd on the install CDs? Unpacking is easy, it's a cpio archive, but recreating the archive even with -H newc makes the kernel panic.
[10:35] <mark__> Is there a jabber conference room version of this channel?
[10:35] <bovineck> earthling sounds like it could be fried - is there anything on it that needs to be backed up?  Copy it off and then dump the usb.  They have a limited life span...
[10:35] <tarelerulz> Any of you use kopete with gtalk voice support ?
[10:37] <mark__> No. I use Gajim
[10:37] <swilky> tar -zxvf syslinux-3.62.tar.gz
[10:37] <earthling> bovineck : earlier it showed a wierd file partition, then i fdisk it to vfat, it worked on my comp fine then. then my friend took it his comp to see if it worked(windows) and it started giving this error
[10:37] <swilky> it lists all the files
[10:37] <mark__> Someone start a jabber conference room
[10:37] <swilky> and says
[10:37] <earthling> bovineck : do you know anything about setting read only flags on pendrives
[10:38] <bovineck> earthling well it was windows 2000 machine that fried mine - i haven't forgiven Bill yet :)
[10:38] <jaffarkelshac> hey ppl. i want to know if i can upgrade from dapper to gutsy
[10:38] <swilky> ahhh so stupid
[10:38] <earthling> bovineck : :)
[10:38] <swilky> i wasnt sudo
[10:38] <odder> jaffarkelshac: yep, you can
[10:38] <bovineck> earthling I did try to set manually but the drive was broken
[10:39] <hi365> help! my pc is going in to stabdby after about half an hour. all the gui steeing are diaabled. where is this set???
[10:39] <jaffarkelshac> odder can you point me in the dirrection to how
[10:39] <odder> jaffarkelshac: well, I have never done that, but apt-get upgrade should work for you, I hope
[10:40] <earthling> bovineck : i think i will give it some more time before i declare mine dead.. :)
[10:40] <odder> jaffarkelshac: there is a lot of tutorials on the Internet, try http://tinyurl.com/28kvu4
[10:40] <jaffarkelshac> odder, not quiet. I will just wait for the next one to see if that will install from cd
[10:41] <bovineck> earthling you need to let go sometime (having said that I am still freezing/heating mine and next its the magnet treatment!)
[10:41] <earthling> bovineck : :) . lol
[10:43] <odder> jaffarkelshac: well, honestly, I would suggest doing a fresh install of gutsy, upgrading from dapper to gutsy (that means 3 releases) could be *really* painful
[10:44] <Gatestone> Anyone guess why this http://pastebin.com/m132a4556 first time prints garbage, later right remote addresses in a sequnce of incoming connection?

[11:45] <kandinski> also, is there a good pdf reader for the console_
[11:45] <kandinski> ?
[11:45] <Mzalendo> erUSUL: thank u... can i ask u something?  i have a problem with my Ubuntu 7.10 (Gutsy) installation...
[11:45] <kandinski> I need to read pdfs in a computer that has no X (weird, I know)
[11:45] <hasrolhafiz> erUSUL : i cant resolve connection to internet
[11:45] <draicone> I'm trying to shrink my Ubuntu partition from within Ubuntu
[11:45] <draicone> What are my options?
[11:45] <hasrolhafiz> i means cant get connection to my internet connection
[11:46] <bastid_raZor> draicone; you can't do that the way you're trying.. you'll need the liveCD to unmount your partition
[11:46] <draicone> I couldn't work out how to use parted, gparted was used a different version of various libs, qtparted failed (i'm using gnome/ubuntu) and I don't have a live cd of gparted
[11:46] <yacc> Ah, a netboot.iso that does not start the installer, instead it starts dropbear :)
[11:46] <Mzalendo> erUSUL: i installed Ubuntu on an old PC... Dell Dimension XPS Generation 4... which is a 2002-3 release...
[11:46] <draicone> bastid_raZor: If I burn the desktop 7.04 iso (7.04 installed, passed on the cd) will that resize my partitions?
[11:46] <Mzalendo> erUSUL: i did the install in safe graphics mode...
[11:46] <erUSUL> !ask | Mzalendo
[11:47] <ubotu> Mzalendo: Please don't ask to ask a question, ask the question (all on ONE line, so others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely answer. :-)
[11:47] <jtravnick> draicone, do you have a live cd of ubuntu? gparted is on there
[11:47] <Mzalendo> erUSUL: then later, after changing the software sources and updating, the display came up messed up... i'm seeing gibberish...
[11:47] <erUSUL> hasrolhafiz: details please; what type of connection?
[11:47] <bastid_raZor> draicone; you can resize it from that liveCD yes.
[11:47] <draicone> jtravnick: I've got the ISO, I can burn it to media.
[11:47] <erUSUL> Mzalendo: your best bet is to boot in recovery mode (no X) and try 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg'
[11:48] <draicone> bastid_raZor: Will the live cd mount my filesystems?
[11:48] <draicone> (can I unmount them if it does?)
[11:48] <Mzalendo> erUSUL: it seems to be that the update added stuff that is newer than what the graphics card can support... Invidia GeForce... i dont remember the model number
[11:48] <bastid_raZor> draicone; you can unmount if so..
[11:48] <Mzalendo> erUSUL: what will that do? fix everything?
[11:48] <draicone> Great, thanks bastid_raZor, jtravnick.
[11:48] <hasrolhafiz> erUSUL : sorry the problem is while im booting the problem is  pci cannot allocate and the error come with im pasted before
[11:48] <Filled-Void> Mzalendo, It willt ry to reconfigure your display settings
[11:49] <erUSUL> Mzalendo: no give you a new X configuration that works (hopefully)

[11:52] <Lamego> ops, postfix
[11:52] <Lamego> then you can use mail, sendmail or mailx

[11:54] <the_alamo> i have been attempting to install banshee alpha 2 but i get a warning saying that gnome-vfs-2.0 isn't installed.  if i try to install it it doesn't seem to exist... what should i do?
[11:54] <algyz> the_alamo:  sudo apt-get install libgnome2-vfs-perl
[11:54] <erUSUL> Mzalendo: o sorry i confused you with the other person i was helping hasrolhafiz
[11:55] <jtravnick> clinton, what part of mi. you located?
[11:55] <Mzalendo> oh, ok
[11:55] <negge> i was thinking of trying out the new hardy heron beta... can i install it in vmware without running into any problems (i tried to install debian but it never worked)
[11:55] <erUSUL> Mzalendo: 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg' will fix the xorg configuration ; yes
[11:55] <clinton> jtravnick: metro detroit
[11:55] <the_alamo> algyz, okay i will give that a try... there is a chance i have that installed already.
[11:55] <bastid_raZor> negge; i actually just updated hardy in VMware.. so far it is running smoothly
[11:55] <simplyubuntu> can anyone help me configure a modem in ubuntu... finding it difficult
[11:56] <negge> bastid_raZor okay, i guess I'll try it when i get home from work
[11:56] <jtravnick> clinton, oh ok was kinda hoping to find somebody up in the u.p
[11:56] <Mzalendo> erUSUL: so i start in recovery mode and run that command? do i need to be connected to the Net or i can run it offline?
[11:56] <DistroJockey> simplyubuntu: USB or serial? Using wvdial?
[11:56] <the_alamo> algyz, yep, it says that it is already the newest version
[11:57] <negge> i checked out some screenshots and it looked pretty good, i've only been using KDE so far so i thought it might be a good idea to check out gnome aswell
[11:57] <simplyubuntu> Distrojockey, its a pci modem... using wvdial...
[11:57] <Baba-B00ie> i'm running ubuntu 7.10. but i want kernel information.. wanted to know if i run 32bit or 64bit version. what is that command
[11:57]  * shay pokes kate_mins
[11:57] <negge> bastid_raZor  'uname -a'
[11:57] <simplyubuntu> it says modem initialized, but tells me i have an invalid ph number no matter whati put in there....!
[11:57] <DistroJockey> simplyubuntu: what error/problem are you getting?
[11:57] <Filled-Void> uname -a?
[11:58] <Lamego> Baba-B00ie, on the terminal, uname -m
[11:58] <Filled-Void> eep late :(
[11:58] <Baba-B00ie> ty
[11:58] <bastid_raZor> negge; i'm partial to the split toolbars of which i removed the bottom one and installed AWN.. i like the dock .. for me KDE seems too much like a windows feel.
[11:58] <negge> hehe
[11:58]  * kate_mins slap shay
[11:58] <DistroJockey> simplyubuntu: hmm
[11:58] <erUSUL> Mzalendo: you can run it offline (you can run it on safe graphics mode if you can)
[11:59] <negge> bastid_raZor yeah, when using KDE i pop into some weird bugs every now and then, i hope the situation is better with gnome
[11:59] <Baba-B00ie> uname -a tells me kernel info but not if it's 64bit and uname -m tells me i686
[11:59] <kandinski> thanks clinton
[11:59] <bastid_raZor> negge; you're on KDE4 by now right?
[11:59] <Mzalendo> erUSUL: well, i have three options with GRUB... generic, recovery and memtest... so i guess i am going to try and run it via recovery
[11:59] <jrib> Baba-B00ie: then you are on 32bit
[11:59] <bastid_raZor> Baba-B00ie; then you're not on 64 bit with i686
[11:59] <Mzalendo> erUSUL: since u r obviously an expert, maybe u can assist me, step by step, via Pidgin IM?
[11:59] <negge> bastid_raZor no i'm still using 3.5.4, i installed KDE4 a couple of days ago but it was such a big chance I decided to remove it right away
[12:00] <Baba-B00ie> ok thanks.. i couldn't remember if i installed 32 or 64 last time around
[12:00] <simplyubuntu> Distrojockey any ideas?
[12:00] <Mzalendo> erUSUL: if u dont mind, i could add u... or u can add me, then we can have a more realtime guided session?
[12:00]  * kate_mins kiss shay
[12:00] <kestaz> How to set color to 256 with vncviewer from command line ?
[12:00] <Baba-B00ie> what would it have said if it was 64 bit?
[12:00] <kestaz> Or using .vnc config ?
[12:00] <DistroJockey> simplyubuntu: can you pastebin the output from wvdial and /etc/wvdial.conf (edit out personal details) ?
[12:01] <DistroJockey> simplyubuntu: it's been a while, but I may spot something :)

[12:01] <negge> Baba-B00ie if you have an AMD CPU i think it should say amd64

[12:02] <Mzalendo> erUSUL: ok... no problem... i will stay connected... am powering up the old desktop... lol
[12:02] <Baba-B00ie> negge, i do have an amd 64 and ty
[12:02] <OwNsYa> hey, im ssh'd into my ubuntu machine, trying to do a python command but it needs root administrations, how do i do it? (when i installed ubuntu, i never had a root password?) and when i try sudo it on my user it dosent work?
[12:02] <Liz_Tayly> pria_tak_ada: join ubuntu-my for malaysia
[12:02] <Pici> !sudo | OwNsYa please read :)
[12:02] <ubotu> OwNsYa please read :): sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more information.
[12:02] <bastid_raZor> OwNsYa; use sudo Luke
[12:02] <DistroJockey> legend2440: good link :)
[12:04] <OwNsYa> sudo: Luke: command not found
[12:04] <OwNsYa> ...
[12:04] <OwNsYa> oh
[12:04] <OwNsYa> luke = pass, you mean?
[12:04] <hasrolhafiz> anyone i cant allocate pci i done "sudo update-pciids" , but nothing changed
[12:04] <Pici> OwNsYa: hes making an allusion to Star Wars.  Just use sudo before your command.
[12:04] <OwNsYa> i do
[12:05] <OwNsYa> but it wont work :P
[12:05] <Rengar> Hi, I'm new to ubuntu, formerly I used SuSE and Gentoo... all from a commandline prompt only... I just installed last night, and need help getting gcc set up.. .can anyone point me to a web page/FAQ?
[12:05] <erUSUL> hasrolhafiz: as i said that is only cosmetic thing know lspci will report the actual name of the device instead of unknown device
[12:05] <Pici> OwNsYa: Is your user the same first user that was created when you installed Ubuntu?
[12:05] <jrib> !compile > rengar (read the private message from ubotu)
[12:05] <rausb0> Rengar: sudo apt-get install build-essential
[12:05] <OwNsYa> yeah

[12:05] <simplyubuntu> legend2440 nice ;)
[12:06] <Mzalendo> erUSUL: i ran the command, and got the dialog to select the screen size... i use 1280 x 768
[12:06] <simplyubuntu> Distrojockey, legend2440, how would i tell wvdial to insert a prefix before dialling? (on a pabx exchange)
[12:06] <DistroJockey> OwNsYa: try: sudo su   enter password, then run the commands
[12:06] <Mzalendo> erUSUL: then there was a warning message, and the result is...
[12:06] <yacc> Somehow I've got the feeling that the debian installer is not meant to be running via network :(
[12:06] <Pici> OwNsYa: ah.
[12:07] <DistroJockey> simplyubuntu: just stick the number infront of the number?
[12:07] <Mzalendo> xserver-org postinst warning: overwriting possibly-customised configuration file: backup in /etc/x11/xorg.conf.20080327150513
[12:07] <Mzalendo> what next?
[12:07] <jrib> DistroJockey: it's better to use 'sudo -i' instead of 'sudo su' as it resets the environment.  (sudo -i is like su - and sudo -s is like regular su)
[12:07] <erUSUL> Mzalendo: know reboot to noermal mode and see if you have good graphics
[12:07] <DistroJockey> jrib: ahh, cool. Cheers :)
[12:08] <Mzalendo> erUSUL: will the command exit work? or what command should i enter to do that? am not really sure
[12:08] <simplyubuntu> Distrojockey, but the exchange requires you to wait after dialling the prefix.... ill try it anyway though..
[12:08] <Coudy> Hi, my Ubuntu freeze after login. I have Nvidia GeForce MX440. Freze version 7.04, 7.10, 8.04. i have tried nv and nvidia drivers. Disabled powernowd. I can't find any solution with google, or lookoing on ubuntuforums.org
[12:08] <Pici> OwNsYa: sudo is not preserved past bash IO redirection operators.  you can do this though: sudo python rtorstat.py /opt/bittorrent/sessiondata/ | sudo tee /var/www/index.html    or use sudo -i to get an interative root shell and just run the command normally.. and I think theres another way to run multiple sudo commands on one line, but I forget the sudo argument.
[12:09] <unop_> OwNsYa, python blah | sudo tee -a index.html  or sudo sh -c "python blah > index.html"
[12:09] <DistroJockey> simplyubuntu: there should be a way to make it wait (looking at man wvdial)
[12:10] <bastid_raZor> DistroJockey; simplyubuntu adding a comma to the dialing sequence should add a two second delay
[12:10] <legend2440> simplyubuntu: i think commas add pauses between prefix and number the more commas the more pauses
[12:10] <DistroJockey> bastid_raZor: nice, cheers :)
[12:10] <simplyubuntu> already thought of that
[12:11] <simplyubuntu> tred with one comma... not more though.. will do
[12:11] <Mzalendo> erUSUL: i typed exit, now i have a worse display... it's pretty bad

[12:23] <Mzalendo> i guess the sudo rpkg command didnt really do the job
[12:23] <moDumass> but the 500giger is a mystery
[12:23] <Mzalendo> how do i reconfigure my display?
[12:23] <jrib> sploutchy: ##javascript

[12:25] <DistroJockey> Mzalendo: try:    sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg
[12:26] <Mzalendo> DistroJockey: that's what i did, and reset my screen size to 1068 x 768.... after that it is a gibberish flashing screen... no login screen

[12:27] <Mzalendo> all the icons were displayed in triplicate... as if the display was multiplied three times over...
[12:27] <Mzalendo> even the cursor was tripled, but it was all gibberish

[12:42] <unop_> kandinski, sudo dpkg-reconfigure -plow xserver-xorg
[12:42] <Mzalendo_> DistroJockey: i cant... since it's not connected to this laptop...
[12:42] <DistroJockey> Mzalendo_: k
[12:43] <kandinski> plow, plow, plow your boat!
[12:43] <Mzalendo_> DistroJockey: does recovery mode have a way to access IRC? maybe i could send u the file...
[12:43] <DistroJockey> Mzalendo_:  Section "Device"
[12:43] <Jemt> Moppa: And <IP_ADDRESS> is YOUR ip, right ? Not some redirector, dyndns or what ever
[12:43] <DistroJockey> Mzalendo_: not sure
[12:43] <Mzalendo_> can someone remove the "Mzalendo" nickname for me? i am being reminded to pick a new one
[12:43] <Moppa> Jemt - Nope, that's the ip to my router.
[12:43] <Mzalendo_> Section "Device"
[12:44] <Jemt> Moppa: Okay, seems that port 80 is not open
[12:44] <Pici> !ghost | Mzalendo_
[12:44] <ubotu> Mzalendo_: On IRC, if you own a nick that is currently being used, you can make it quit by typing: /msg nickserv GHOST <username> <password>
[12:44] <DistroJockey> Mzalendo_: Driver  line
[12:44] <Moppa> Jemt - check now?
[12:44] <Jemt> Moppa: Unfortunately I'm not currently on a Linux box - but have someone do a port scan on your router
[12:44] <Jemt> Moppa: Ok
[12:44] <Mzalendo_> Identifier "nVidia Corporation NV41.1 [GeForce 6800]"
[12:44] <Jemt> Moppa: There!
[12:44] <Mzalendo_> Driver "nv"
[12:44] <Moppa> Jemt - i disabled it for a while to reenable it correctly.
[12:44] <Jemt> Moppa: I'm prompted for password
[12:44] <Moppa> Jemt - YAAAAY :D
[12:44] <Mzalendo_> BusID "PCI:1:0:0"
[12:45] <Jemt> Moppa: Ready for take off. Enjoy your server - I will get back to work :)
[12:45] <DistroJockey> Mzalendo_: make a copy of your xorg.conf file (just incase) and change the Driver "nv" to Driver "vesa"
[12:45] <Moppa> Jemt - Then it WAS a router problem :P. Damn D-links ;). Apparently the built-in firewall rule for port 80 didn't work, so i made one myself, and it worked.
[12:45] <Moppa> Jemt - thanks :(
[12:45] <Moppa> :)*
[12:46] <DistroJockey> Mzalendo_: then try and start/restart X
[12:46] <Mzalendo_> DistroJockey: in recovery mode how do i make a copy?
[12:46] <Mzalendo_> i first have to cd /etc/X11/ ?
[12:46] <Jemt> Moppa: Hehe, routers tend to do weird stuff some times :)  And you are welcome .)
[12:46] <DistroJockey> Mzalendo_: cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.backup
[12:46] <RioMerc> Mzalendo: Don't forget sudo :P
[12:46] <DistroJockey> Mzalendo_: sudo infrount of that
[12:46] <DistroJockey> hehe
[12:47] <RioMerc> Heh
[12:47] <DistroJockey> RioMerc: it's getting late and I have had many beers :)
[12:47] <RioMerc> :P
[12:47] <RioMerc> I'll cover your mistakes ^^
[12:48] <DistroJockey> RioMerc: cheers :)
[12:48] <RioMerc> What did Mzalendo_ do?
[12:48] <anaoum> Coudy: im back
[12:48] <Mzalendo_> ok, now how do i change/edit the file?
[12:48] <Viden> good morning all.  Can anyone help me with a wireless issue with the broadcom chipset only allowing 1mb connection?
[12:48] <RioMerc> Mzalendo_: sudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[12:48] <DistroJockey> RioMerc: an upgrade and has a broken X
[12:48] <RioMerc> Ah
[12:48] <RioMerc> GDM Broked?
[12:48] <DistroJockey> RioMerc: flashing screen with artifacts I belive
[12:49] <Mzalendo_> cannot open display
[12:49] <RioMerc> Ouch
[12:49] <RioMerc> Driver issues
[12:49] <Jack_Sparrow> RioMerc, Please note.. gksudo for gui apps so it would be gksudo gedit   or sudo nano for cli
[12:49] <RioMerc> Ah
[12:49] <RioMerc> Good point
[12:49] <Mzalendo_> yea
[12:49] <DistroJockey> RioMerc: yup, hence me thinking to try vesa
[12:49] <RioMerc> I was going to reccomend nano
[12:49] <RioMerc> Yeah, that's a good idea
[12:49] <Mzalendo_> it's a 2003 machine
[12:49] <RioMerc> :P
[12:49] <chazco> Hi... is anyone using the latest Truecrypt on Gusty? How well does it handle saving large files (multiple GB) as it used to stall?
[12:49] <tparcina> hi channel!
[12:50] <RioMerc> Hi tparcina!
[12:50] <RioMerc> Say
[12:50] <tparcina> how can I find out what codecs can I use in ffmpeg?
[12:50] <Pralou> i bought a Linksys WRT54GL router to use on my computer.. but how do i install it on ubuntu? it's clearly stated that i should run the cd before i connect the cables
[12:50] <RioMerc> While I'm here, why the hell has my cursor just gone ker-flooey?
[12:50] <RioMerc> Buffer issues?
[12:50] <Mzalendo_> DistroJockey: gedit didnt work... i got error message cannot open display
[12:50] <chazco> tparcina - "ffmpeg -formats" iirc
[12:50] <RioMerc> ffmpeg is a standalone program? Odd, I could have sworn it was a codec only
[12:50] <choward> Pralou plug it all up and just open Firefox to <IP_ADDRESS>
[12:51] <DistroJockey> Mzalendo_: use nano or pico or vim :)
[12:51] <RioMerc> Mzalendo: try gksudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[12:51] <Jack_Sparrow> Mzalendo_, sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[12:51] <RioMerc> if that doesn't work
[12:51] <Pralou> k
[12:51] <Coudy> anaoum: i don't know if LiveCD is working, because  I have installed it from alternate CD
[12:51] <RioMerc> Yep, what Jack_Sparrow said :P
[12:51] <DistroJockey> *nods*
[12:51] <choward> The CD that comes with the router also works fine in wine..
[12:51] <RioMerc> Is there a way to install a Livecd onto a HD?
[12:51] <RioMerc> Like, as an alternate kernel in the GRUB?
[12:51] <tparcina> chazco: thank you! :)
[12:52] <chazco> tparcina - Np :)
[12:52] <Pralou> ok i'll try, thanks choward
[12:52] <Mzalendo_> nano works
[12:52] <choward> Pralou if this is the first Linksys router you have set up, I would make sure you have wine installed and just run the CD.
[12:52] <Mzalendo_> how do i save the file? what command?
[12:52] <Moppa> can i put a * sign in adresses in my /etc/hosts?
[12:52] <Pralou> ok
[12:52] <Moppa> IE: *.moppa.se
[12:52] <Jack_Sparrow> RioMerc, Please explain or rephrase what you are trying to do.. .. and Coudy alternatecd is not a livecd it is a text only installer
[12:53] <chazco> Hi... is anyone using the latest Truecrypt on Gusty? How well does it handle saving large files (multiple GB) as it used to stall?
[12:53] <tparcina> chazco: what does DAVSDT in front of codec means?
[12:53] <unop_> Moppa, errm no
[12:53] <unop_> Moppa, what are you trying to do?
[12:53] <tparcina> I guess D - decode, E  -encode, A - audio, V-video, but what other D and S and T stands for?
[12:53] <jeremy_reid> !register
[12:53] <ubotu> By default, only registered users can send private messages - Information about registering your nickname: http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#userregistration - Type ยซ /nick <nickname> ยป to select your nickname.
[12:54] <RioMerc> Jack_Sparrow: Not trying to do, just a theory. I'm wondering if one could theoretically take the kernel of a Livecd and put it onto a HD, then make it bootable as an alternate OS in the GRUB menu
[12:54] <Mzalendo_> Jack_Sparrow: am very new to  this, so bear with me... i managed to edit the file, how do i save it? and exit the program?
[12:54] <swilky> SIGH
[12:54] <Saudi> ุธ
[12:54] <Jack_Sparrow> Mzalendo_, ctrk o or w   cant remember
[12:54] <RioMerc> Mzalendo_: If you're using nano, Ctrl+O, Ctrl+X (O = Save, X = Exit)
[12:54] <DistroJockey> Mzalendo_: there should be a list of ctrl command at the bottom
[12:55] <Jack_Sparrow> thanks rio
[12:55] <Pralou> choward: hmm.. i cant open the setup.exe with wine
[12:55] <RioMerc> DistroJockey: it's pretty hard to understand that ^ means ctrl
[12:55] <swilky> can any one tell me why my ubuntu installation is haning at the scanning mirror screen (its not a network problem)
[12:55] <RioMerc> Pralou, you might want #winehq
[12:55] <DistroJockey> Mzalendo_: true, that's why I said it :)
[12:55] <Mzalendo_> thanks
[12:55] <Jack_Sparrow> tparcina, if you are playing with ff google up winff  they have a deb package..
[12:55] <choward> Pralou did you right click the setup.exe and select "Open with Wine"
[12:56] <Pralou> yes
[12:56] <RioMerc> :O!
[12:56] <pbne04> hey..can anyone tell me where to find the source code for iwlist?
[12:56] <RioMerc> Wine has a shell extension?
[12:56] <Pralou> no error msgs, but nada happens
[12:56] <tparcina> Jack_Sparrow: ok, I'll search for it. Thank you.
[12:56] <Moppa> unop_ - My D-Link router only shows me it's loginpage when i enter my server adress locally, but outside the router portforwards the connection correctly to my webserver. Read here: http://whirlpool.net.au/forum-replies-archive.cfm/706914.html that i could fix this by editing my /etc/hosts and entering my domainname (www.moppa.se), but i have subdomains there and i want all of them to be redirected locally. But i guess i have to add them
[12:56] <Moppa>  separately.
[12:57] <Jack_Sparrow> RioMerc, you could look at the alternate ways we can install Ubuntu  or look at this for hints..Make an iso on usb bootable http://jak-linux.org/tmp/iso2usb.sh
[12:57] <unop_> pbne04, download the wireless-tools source package
[12:57] <Mzalendo_> thank u all so much
[12:57] <Mzalendo_> it works
[12:57] <choward> Pralou: strange.  Works for me when using the cd to reset misbehaving routers. hehe. Just open a browser to <IP_ADDRESS>(defalut for linksys routers) and you should have a setup page.
[12:57] <Mzalendo_> even my ntfs drive can be seen
[12:57] <Mzalendo_> wow! you people are great!
[12:57] <Jack_Sparrow> :)
[12:58] <DistroJockey> Mzalendo_: :)
[12:58] <Mzalendo_> whenever i get stuck i will be coming here
[12:58] <DistroJockey> Mzalendo_: excellent
[12:58] <RioMerc> Jack_Sparrow, thanks
[12:58] <Jack_Sparrow> np rio..
[12:58] <Mark76> I think I prefer gajim to pidgin
[12:58] <RioMerc> :P
[12:58] <pbne04> unop_: its installed but im unable to find the actual source file once its installed
[12:58] <Pralou> choward: ok, i'll try it out
[12:58] <Pralou> ty
[12:58] <tparcina> Jack_Sparrow: from what repository can I download winff?
[12:58] <pbne04> I can only find the source files for iwconfig
[12:58] <RioMerc> Probably a foolish question, but what's the difference between GAIM and Pidgin?
[12:58] <boris_> hello. i found out my system cant keep up with the graphics card. its as loud as when i play hardware-demanding game
[12:59] <boris_> what now ?
[12:59] <RioMerc> As far as I know, Pidgin is basically Gaim with a name change
[12:59] <unop_> Moppa, it's quite simple to do really -- if you have a list of subdomains --  for i in s1 s2 s3; do echo ip.add.re.ss $i.mydomain.local > /etc/hosts; done
[12:59] <Jack_Sparrow> tparcina, It is not in the repos.  but it is a deb that you can double click to install..
[12:59] <RioMerc> boris_ Er. What?
[12:59] <DistroJockey> Mzalendo_: so you went to vesa from nv, it's not ideal but if it works ... :)
[12:59] <pteague> what's a good desktop recording program?
[12:59] <tparcina> Jack_Sparrow: ok, thank you for info
[12:59] <unop_> Moppa, the right way to do that is to have bind (dns server) register and manage subdomains
[12:59] <RioMerc> Mzalendo_: NVidia card?
[12:59] <bastid_raZor> pteague; recordmydesktop
[12:59] <Viden> Can anyone help with a wireless issue using the broadcom chipset where the card is locked to 1mb?
[13:00] <boris_> RioMerc: ive got a new sound card (ATI HD2600PRO) and my system is so loud, but i didnt play a game or something, so i dont know why
[13:00] <Moppa> unop_ - say i only wan't www.moppa.se to work at first, what will the command be?
[13:00] <RioMerc> I didn't know ATI Made Sound Cards
[13:00] <bastid_raZor> pteague; uh..hang on i'll get you the package name..
[13:00] <Mzalendo_> DistroJockey: i didnt change that... the Synaptic Update did it
[13:00] <boris_> RioMerc: ive got 3D on, but my older graphics card, Radeon9550 didnt cause the system to be so loud
[13:00] <pteague> bastid_raZor> cool, thanks
[13:00] <DistroJockey> Mzalendo_: ahh
[13:00] <boris_> RioMerc: graphics card
[13:00] <unop_> Moppa, actually serious mistake with the last command -- it should be >> instead of >
[13:00] <RioMerc> boris_: Define loud
[13:00] <pteague> bastid_raZor> it's recordmydesktop :)
[13:00] <RioMerc> You mean, in volume?
[13:00] <DistroJockey> Mzalendo_: but you just edited xorg.conf right?
[13:00] <boris_> RioMerc: what ?
[13:00] <bastid_raZor> pteague; cool, i thought there was a - in there somewhere
[13:00] <Mzalendo_> DistroJockey: i had problems with my Rhythmbox playing MP3 files also... saying they could not be understood due to the GStreamer codec being missing
[13:01] <boris_> RioMerc: the system itself is loud
[13:01] <Mzalendo_> or something like that
[13:01] <unop_> Moppa, echo "ip.add.re.ss www.moppa.se" >> /etc/hosts
[13:01] <RioMerc> boris_: You mean, Audio?
[13:01] <Moppa> unop_ - it says <IP_ADDRESS> www.moppa.se in my /etc/hosts
[13:01] <boris_> RioMerc: no
[13:01] <Mzalendo_> DistroJockey: yes, i just did... i set it back to "vesa"
[13:01] <RioMerc> what's this recordmydesktop I hear of?
[13:01] <Moppa> but still doesn't work
[13:01] <CJS3141> My sound has been working perfectly fine, but when I booted my computer this morning, it no longer works: when trying to play a sound file, any sound player program I use will either hang or simply act like the sound file can't be played. Any ideas? I could sure use some help.
[13:01] <Mzalendo_> works fine
[13:01] <DistroJockey> Mzalendo_: *nods*
[13:01] <RioMerc> boris_: Then what is loud?
[13:01] <RioMerc> I'm confused :P
[13:01] <boris_> RioMerc: the computer itself
[13:01] <unop_> Moppa, so whats the problem then?
[13:01] <Moppa> unop_ - it doesn't work.
[13:01] <bastid_raZor> boris_; how is this a ubuntu problem? you have a noisy fan?
[13:01] <RioMerc> boris_: OH!! I'm guessing the new card just has a bitchin' fan in it
[13:01] <nabarro72> alguem do brasil ai?
[13:01] <pteague> anybody have any ideas as to why gnome suddenly won't let me select anything on the desktop?
[13:01] <boris_> RioMerc: it usually happens when i play a game that requires lots of sys resources, but this time i didnt
[13:02] <RioMerc> boris_: Overclocking?
[13:02] <nabarro72> alquem que fale portugues?
[13:02] <boris_> no
[13:02] <RioMerc> Hmm
[13:02] <bastid_raZor> RioMerc; recordmydesktop does just what its name implies.. works very well.. video and sound
[13:02] <DistroJockey> Mzalendo_: hopefully you will be able to get it back to nv or nvidia one day as vesa is limited
[13:02] <RioMerc> boris_ I'm just guessing that the new card has a more powerful fan, so when you actually play a game, it might go even faster
[13:02] <RioMerc> bastid_raZor: How do I go about obtaining this program?
[13:03] <RioMerc> I'm guessing it's not in the repository?
[13:03] <choward> boris_ those cards are loud...
[13:03] <Mzalendo_> how do i get the GStreamer plugins for Rhythmbox?
[13:03] <Jack_Sparrow> tparcina, http://www.winff.org/index.php?option=com_content&view=category&layout=blog&id=34&Itemid=60
[13:03] <Moppa> unop_ - and i have restarted my network
[13:03] <boris_> RioMerc: i belive its not the graphics card fan's problem. i heard that sound before, when i didnt have this card
[13:03] <Mzalendo_> DistroJockey: i can use "nvidia" as the driver?
[13:03] <dgjones> !pt | nabarro72
[13:03] <ubotu> nabarro72: Por favor use #ubuntu-br ou #ubuntu-pt para ajuda em portuguรชs. Obrigado.
[13:03] <bastid_raZor> RioMerc; apt-get install recordmydesktop
[13:03] <DistroJockey> Mzalendo_: using restricted drivers
[13:03] <RioMerc> boris_: Perhaps the graphics card is demanding more voltage from your PSU, thusly making it's fan spin faster?
[13:03] <unop__> Moppa, sorry, i got disconnected, can you repeat your last posts since i asked you what was wrong
[13:03] <boris_> RioMerc: hm
[13:03] <unop__> ?
[13:03] <boris_> RioMerc: could be
[13:03] <Mzalendo_> DistroJockey: in the software sources?
[13:04] <DistroJockey> !nvidia | Mzalendo
[13:04] <ubotu> Mzalendo: For Ati/NVidia/Matrox video cards, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[13:04] <bastid_raZor> boris_; could be the power supply fan or processor fan.
[13:04] <Moppa> unop_  - it still doesn't work. and i have restarted my network
[13:04] <boris_> RioMerc: will everything, besides sound, be ok ?
[13:04] <choward> boris_ open your case and try to figure out which fan is making the noise... if it is your CPU fan then the setting that controls fan speed in your Bios has been reset.
[13:04] <RioMerc> Already said it :P
[13:04] <RioMerc> boris_: Probably, but I would consider getting a more powerful PSU. What's the wattage on your current one>?
[13:04] <DistroJockey> Mzalendo_: should be
[13:04] <boris_> RioMerc: no idea. how do i check?
[13:04] <unop__> Moppa,  what happens when you type this command -- host www.moppa.se
[13:05] <RioMerc> boris_: It should be written on the side of the PSU itself
[13:05] <DistroJockey> Mzalendo_: search for nvidia in Synaptic
[13:05] <Mzalendo_> ok... thanks
[13:05] <Jack_Sparrow> boris_, there are online sites that will let you calculate what wattage ps you need to have..
[13:05] <RioMerc> It's usually in small lettering
[13:05] <DistroJockey> Mzalendo_: no problem
[13:05] <RioMerc> Mine is at 450W!
[13:05] <choward> Rated...
[13:05] <RioMerc> Pretty weak.
[13:05] <choward> ...not really
[13:06] <boris_> RioMerc: input : 230V, output : 7.5 V
[13:06] <Jack_Sparrow> 450 is fine for most systems
[13:06] <DistroJockey> Think I'll crash. Later all.
[13:06] <RioMerc> :P
[13:06] <Pici> Please join ##hardware for Hardware discussion and support, thank you/
[13:06] <boris_> RioMerc: is that what you've been looking for ?
[13:06] <Mzalendo_> DistroJockey: and what about the sound card? how do i upgrade the driver? i have a Creative Soundblaster Audigy 2 ZS
[13:06] <RioMerc> boris_: No, It should be a number like 450 or 500 followed by a W
[13:06] <choward> I run systems with nv8800GTS and 300W PSU
[13:06] <Moppa> unop_ - www.moppa.se is an alias for hackback.servebeer.com. and then my externat ip-adress. I'm guessing i shall enter hackback.servebeer.com as host?
[13:06] <Jack_Sparrow> boris_, what cpu, soundcard number of drives etc?
[13:06] <NIKA_> miiiiiii
[13:06] <boris_> Jack_Sparrow: 3.0 GHz intel pentium 4
[13:07] <boris_> Jack_Sparrow: 02:0a.0 Multimedia audio controller: Creative Labs SB Audigy LS
[13:07] <Moppa> unop_ - nope, still routerlogin
[13:07] <choward> rule of thumb small fan=loud big fan=quiet.  if your new card has a smaller fan then it is going to be louder...
[13:07] <boris_> Jack_Sparrow: just 1 hard drive, 80 GB, 2 GB of ram
[13:07] <unop__> Moppa, what does "host www.moppa.se" say?
[13:07] <Jack_Sparrow> boris, I think there is a different issue with that fan noise, but I cant remember the fix..  perhaps a driver or power monitor app..  and for a 3.0.. that is not enough of a ps, you are putting your components at risk
[13:08] <Jemt> Moppa: Having problems accessing your site from within your network using the domain name ?
[13:08] <boris_> Jack_Sparrow: 1 core, not 2
[13:08] <Moppa> unop_ - www.moppa.se is an alias for hackback.servebeer.com. hackback.servebeer.com has adress <IP_ADDRESS>
[13:08] <Moppa> Jemt - yepp,
[13:08] <boris_> Jack_Sparrow: ive got fglrx
[13:08] <Moppa> unop__  - www.moppa.se is an alias for hackback.servebeer.com. hackback.servebeer.com has adress <IP_ADDRESS>
[13:08] <Xman> can anyone tell me is there aby software package to change my MAC address besides macchanger????
[13:08] <Jack_Sparrow> boris_, use the online sites, figure out what is needed, add 20% and replace it
[13:09] <boris_> Jack_Sparrow: what online sites ?
[13:09] <boris_> link please
[13:09] <Jemt> Moppa: Just edit /etc/hosts and add the following entry:   serverip moppa.se www.moppa.se mail.moppa.se subx.moppa.se suby.moppa
[13:09] <Jack_Sparrow> let me see if I have a link
[13:09] <Jemt> Moppa: Save the file and make SURE you restart applications that is trying to access the domain (browsers, mail client etc)
[13:09] <Moppa> Jemt - ok
[13:09] <unop__> Moppa, i suspect you haven't got the right entry in /etc/hosts
[13:10] <pteague> ok, that's cool... it seems as though recordmydesktop get's at least half of my 2nd monitor (better than taking a screenshot, screenshot makes my second monitor a large transparent section)... guess i'll have to do some reading on capturing specific sections or something
[13:10] <Jemt> Moppa: And server ip is the IP on your network
[13:10] <Jemt> Moppa: .. not the public IP :)
[13:10] <mat__> hi there
[13:10] <terminal> how i open  files windows sharing pc
[13:10] <Moppa> Jemt - i entered my local ip :).
[13:10] <mat__> is this the right spot to get some help with ubuntu?
[13:10] <boris_> Jack_Sparrow: is it safe if i play a game ? btw, i think i didnt have this problem in Windows
[13:10] <Xman> can anyone tell me is there aby software package to change my MAC address besides macchanger????
[13:10] <RioMerc> pteague: Where does recordmydesktop place it's files?
[13:10] <choward> Xman you should not be changing your MAC.
[13:10] <jake2point0> im trying to figure out what exactly is causing my ubuntu to screw up.  if i leave my pc on all night long, in the morning i imove my mouse to click the quit button but the mouse moves around but the screensaver dont go away.  the screensaver is frozen.  where do i start troubleshooting?
[13:10] <bastid_raZor> RioMerc; it gives you the option of where to save.
[13:10] <boris_> Jack_Sparrow: i dont have windoze now, but i changed the sound card recently
[13:11] <RioMerc> :O!
[13:11] <RioMerc> WHO'S CHANGING THEIR MAC?
[13:11] <RioMerc> Sorry lambrini.
[13:11] <RioMerc> Er
[13:11] <unop__> Moppa, what does this return - grep -i moppa /etc/hosts
[13:11] <Rando> Is there a way to stream video & audio files from Ubuntu to an xbox 360?
[13:11] <terminal> how i open  files windows sharing pc
[13:11] <Xman> choward: do you any package
[13:11] <RioMerc> Wtf, Lambrini is deopped?
[13:11] <Jemt> Moppa: And remember to add a hash (#) in front of the line if you use your computer on another network - otherwise your domain won't be accessible. What /etc/hosts do, is pointing a domain to a specific IP address - and obviously your locale IP won't be accessible from another network
[13:11] <Xman> choward: do you know any package
[13:11] <Christoz> Jack_Sparrow hey Captain how is the ocean...i have a problem on uninstalling source based apps
[13:11] <Mzalendo_> thanks everyone
[13:11] <Mzalendo_> i will be back
[13:11] <Pici> Xman: What is wrong with macchanger?
[13:11] <Jack_Sparrow> boris_, http://www.journeysystems.com/?powercalc    your power supply issue didnt change with the os, although Ubuntu can make your hardware work hard, especially when gaming, 3d grpahics and such
[13:11] <Jemt> Moppa: Let me know if it solved your problem :)
[13:11] <negge> Rando it should be possible
[13:11] <choward> Why does Xman want to change/spoof your MAC
[13:11] <Xman> Pici: its not working well
[13:12] <mat__> ok i have a prob... im trying to get flash working... i have tried installing any and all codecs gstreamer and adobe flash... and all i get is a few secs of video and no sound... pls help
[13:12] <Christoz> Jack_Sparrow I'm typing sudo make uninstall and saus that there is nthing to uninstall
[13:12] <RioMerc> pteague:         -width N                Width of recorded window.
[13:12] <bastid_raZor> heh.. Ubuntu works my computer unlike windows that just lays on the couch
[13:12] <Xman> choward: i ned to chang it
[13:12] <negge> one way I could think of doing it is sharing a folder between the Xbox and your PC. then you just put the video you want to stream in that folder and use VLC on the xbox to stream it
[13:12] <RioMerc> Use that variable and you may be able to get the entire 2nd screen too
[13:12] <Moppa> unop__ - <IP_ADDRESS> moppa.se mail.moppa.se wargame.moppa.se phpmyadmin.moppa.se
[13:12] <Rando> negge - any idea how one would go about doing that? I'm moving from WinXP to Ubuntu as my day to day OS
[13:12] <choward> mat__ What version of Ubuntu and what site are you having issues with.
[13:12] <Rando> and that's one of the last hurldes that is in place
[13:12] <ce_chinnese> ss
[13:12] <Pici> Xman: I dont see any other packages (except macchanger-gtk) to do that.
[13:12] <bastid_raZor> Christoz; normally in the src directory there is an uninstall script.
[13:12] <jake2point0> im trying to figure out what exactly is causing my ubuntu to screw up.  if i leave my pc on all night long, in the morning i imove my mouse to click the quit button but the mouse moves around but the screensaver dont go away.  the screensaver is frozen.  where do i start troubleshooting?
[13:12] <negge> Rando do you have linux installed on your xbox?
[13:13] <Christoz> bastiz_raZor yes there is but i can't run this script
[13:13] <Jack_Sparrow> Christoz, Sorry, I doubt I will be here long enough to help with that.
[13:13] <unop> choward, some ISPs require that your use a specific MAC address, maybe his does
[13:13] <RioMerc> pteague: How do you stop recording?
[13:13] <Rando> negge - I didn't know that linux could be installed on an xbox.... i have no mods or hacks or anything on the xbox. It is 100% untouched
[13:13] <choward> jake2point0 use a diff screensaver or none at all.. screensavers are good for only one thing... crashing.
[13:13] <Christoz> Jack_Sparrow np captain
[13:13] <Jemt> jake2point0: Did you try clicking the mouse? The screensaver might be configured so it is only interupted on key presses or mouse click
[13:13] <smokeyd> hey people. What is the best method to create a backup image of an ubuntu partition?
[13:13] <terminal> in windows when we click on view workgroup computer then all pc having same workgroup will be showed how i open same workgrp pc frm ubuntu linux gutsy
[13:13] <mat__> it's from any video site and 8.2
[13:13] <pteague> RioMerc> ctrl+c
[13:14] <RioMerc> Thanks :P
[13:14] <bastid_raZor> Christoz; if you can't run the uninstall script ... uh.. then how did you install it.. you have to have the same permission to install as uninstall
[13:14] <Moppa> Jemt - <IP_ADDRESS> moppa.se mail.moppa.se wargame.moppa.se phpmyadmin.moppa.se int /etc/hosts and then restarting network didn't work.
[13:14] <unop> terminal, in nautilus -- browse to smb://workgroup
[13:14] <jake2point0> ya i clicked my mouse but it didnt go away.  mouse still moves freely though
[13:14] <Moppa> Jemt - shall i restart apache and all other?
[13:14] <negge> Rando if it's unmodded I don't think it's possible
[13:14] <Jemt> Moppa: You don't have to restart the network - just the applications like your browser
[13:14] <Jemt> Moppa: Nope
[13:14] <negge> if you mod your xbox there's a special version of Ubuntu that installs on Xboxes
[13:14] <jake2point0> you think its the screensaver?
[13:14] <Jemt> Moppa: Do a "killall firefox-bin" and then start firefox again
[13:14] <Rando> That's too bad
[13:15] <brap> does any one know an opensource instant messenger that works with msn video and voice?
[13:15] <choward> jake2point0 yup.
[13:15] <Christoz> bastiz_razor hmm...can you remind me how to pastebin via console...i'll paste the console errors and the directory
[13:15] <RioMerc> negge: What's in these days? Hardware or Software hacking on the old 'box?
[13:15] <jake2point0> i already had a problem with acpi
[13:15] <terminal> unop: how to reach on nautilus
[13:15] <bastid_raZor> RioMerc; it also puts an icon in the toolbar you can click and it will stop recording
[13:15] <Moppa> Jemt - no process terminated. wan't running
[13:15] <Jemt> brap: You might be able to use amsn - don't know how much functionality they have implemented yet
[13:15] <unop> terminal, nautilus is the file browser
[13:15] <RioMerc> Christoz: var <Filename or command> | pastebinit
[13:15] <negge> RioMerc I'm not that familiar with Xboxes but last time I checked the only mods available for the old Xbox are hardware mods
[13:15] <RioMerc> Kay
[13:15] <Moppa> Jemt - still no luck
[13:15] <negge> RioMerc but atleast you don't have to solder anything anymore
[13:15] <Jemt> That's odd. Please pastebin all the content of your /etc/hosts file
[13:16] <RioMerc> negge: I remember that one of the MechWarrior games and I think a 007 game had a memory exploit that was used
[13:16] <Pici> !offtopic
[13:16] <ubotu> #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[13:16] <brap> Jemt, thanks :-)
[13:16] <Jemt> brap: My pleasure :)
[13:16] <negge> RioMerc could be, never heard of it though
[13:16] <negge> I'm not very much into gaming
[13:16] <terminal> unop: i hav to install it or it is already installed
[13:16] <RioMerc> Heh
[13:17] <choward> Xman .. no but most routers have an option to allow you to spoof a MAC address.  I would start there.. you really shouldn't need to change your MAC of a network card for any normal activity.
[13:17] <RioMerc> choward: Why does he even need to change his MAC?
[13:17] <unop> terminal, this is nautilus, http://www.marcelgagne.com/images/cwl2004/nautilus_smb.jpg
[13:17] <pteague> hmm... ok, so what key combo creates a sigterm?
[13:17] <Moppa> Jemt - http://pastebin.com/d357be87e
[13:17] <kate_mins> Hello, does it possible to use scp to copy folder with sub-folders ?
[13:17] <mat__> ok i have a prob... im trying to get flash working... i have tried installing any and all codecs gstreamer and adobe flash... and all i get is a few secs of video and no sound... it's with any video site and i have 8.2 pls help
[13:18] <RioMerc> Odd
[13:18] <Pici> mat__: What version of Ubuntu are you running?
[13:18] <Jemt> Moppa: What happens if you ping "moppa.se" now ?
[13:18] <choward> RioMerc Who knows... :) I can't think of  a good reason to ever change the MAC of a network card.  Unless you are spoofing or hacking.
[13:18] <RioMerc> 'Zacktly
[13:18] <unop> kate_mins, scp -r ...
[13:18] <Jemt> Moppa: What IP does 'ping' show ?
[13:18] <pteague> bastid_raZor> what program would you suggest for editing the video created by recordmydesktop? :)
[13:18] <RioMerc> pteague, try VirtualDub, if there's a linux Version
[13:19] <Christoz> bastiz_razor
[13:19] <Christoz> bastiz_razor http://www.pastebin.ca/959432
[13:19] <bastid_raZor> pteague; that i don't know. i've never edited it before
[13:19] <choward> pteague you could use avimux
[13:19] <Moppa> Jemt - from my machine?
[13:19] <RioMerc> Nvm what I said, VirtualDub is 'doze only
[13:19] <unop> choward, RioMerc some ISPs require you use a specific MAC address on connections, it's to do with access control and switching
[13:19] <RioMerc> Oh
[13:19] <pteague> choward> does that use a GUI?
[13:19] <Moppa> Jemt - shows my external ip
[13:19] <bastid_raZor> Christoz; you have to spell uninstall correctly.
[13:19] <pteague> RioMerc> does that edit ogg files?
[13:19] <mat__> pici i have the latest verson of ubuntu
[13:20] <Jemt> Moppa: Yes, from your workstation
[13:20] <Pici> mat__: What version? 7.10? 8.04?
[13:20] <RioMerc> pteague: Probably, but It's 'doze only
[13:20] <bastid_raZor> Christoz; and that is wrong too.. try sudo ./uninstall
[13:20] <Jemt> Moppa: You modified the /etc/hosts file on  your WORKSTATION, right? Not the server
[13:20] <Christoz> RioMerc oops
[13:20] <choward> Avidemux is a free video editor designed for simple cutting, filtering and
[13:20] <choward> encoding tasks. It supports many file types, including AVI, DVD compatible
[13:20] <choward> MPEG files, MP4 and ASF, using a variety of codecs. Tasks can be automated
[13:20] <choward> using projects, job queue and powerful scripting capabilities.
[13:20] <Moppa> Jemt - hahahaha, no, my server :P
[13:20] <terminal> unop: how i open nautilus
[13:20] <Moppa> Jemt - will change (in shame :P)
[13:20] <RioMerc> You're lucky Lambrini isn't here, choward
[13:20] <choward> Whoops. :-0
[13:20] <Pici> !version | mat__
[13:20] <Jemt> Moppa: LOL, okay. The modification should be done on your workstation :)
[13:20] <ubotu> mat__: To find out what version of Ubuntu you have, type ยซ lsb_release -a ยป in a !shell
[13:20] <RioMerc> Furthermore, It doesn't support ogg
[13:20] <mat__> 8.04
[13:20] <archman> guys i decided to erase entire hd and install my backed up ubuntu from scratch; i want two ext3 partitions; so i have to go manual mode in installer and create one ext3 with / mount point and another ext3; logical or extended?
[13:21] <Jemt> Moppa: That's okay - guess I wasn't so clear about that :)
[13:21] <pteague> RioMerc> if it's built correctly it could run under wine...  i run ies4linux, WoW, etc under wine just fine
[13:21] <Moppa> Jemt - Yes, i can see tha now :P
[13:21] <Pici> |: Please join #ubuntu+1 for Hardy/8.04 support/discussion.
[13:21] <Christoz> RioMerc chemical@chemical:~/coldwar_demo$ sudo ./uninstall

[13:22] <choward> Yeah pteague Avidemux has a gui and is kinda neat.. just search for it with Synaptic or apt-get install avidemux
[13:22] <RioMerc> Lol
[13:22] <Moppa> Jemt - Thanks alot
[13:23] <Christoz> bastid_raZor how should i know?
[13:23] <Moppa> This Ubuntu community realy helps its users
[13:23] <pteague> hehe - avidemux requires lame & toolame ...  why would you label something lame?
[13:23] <Jemt> Moppa: Welcome. Only thing is, you have to uncomment the line in /etc/hosts if you move your computer to another network - as I explained earlier :)
[13:23] <Jemt> Moppa: Funny thing is; I'm using Debian :p
[13:23] <Jemt> Moppa: Just like Ubuntu too :)
[13:23] <choward> Lame is Another MP3 Encoder
[13:23] <bastid_raZor> Christoz; i don't know either :\
[13:23] <archman> Guys how do i create two partitions using gutsy installer? Which has to be extended/logical? Will automated formatting ask me for the number of partitions?
[13:23] <Moppa> Jemt - I understand :). Well, i have fallen for ubuntu now and thrown out xp from my laptop :)
[13:24] <pteague> choward> yeah i know... just a funny name
[13:24] <Christoz> bastid_raZor i'll do some googling
[13:24] <Jemt> Moppa: Good for you! Ubuntu is a great OS. I started using Ubuntu some years ago and after a year I moved to a clean Debian installation. Thank God I'm no longer using Windows :)
[13:25] <pteague> bah - avidemux - "Attempt to open ..../out.ogg failed!"
[13:25] <RioMerc> Lalme
[13:25] <Jemt> Moppa: (Ubuntu is a variation of Debian if you didn't know)
[13:25] <choward> pteagrue you want to see a funny program name check out http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=674664
[13:25] <zack1> I installed the 8.04 beta on my laptop and now my wireless card no longer works. it is listed in lshw but there is logical name. I tried modprobe -r airo to remove the drive but nothing happens, it just sits there. Why is it sitting there doing nothing?
[13:25] <RioMerc> Lame is another lame MP3 encoder

[13:26] <RioMerc> Lol, choward
[13:26] <Jemt> Moppa: Yeah, that's nice. I like when things are set up exactly how I want them :)
[13:27] <Jemt> Moppa: I'd better head back to work so I'm away again :)

[13:29] <RioMerc> Aw, take it easy
[13:29] <archman> choward: can i ask something about partitioning?
[13:29] <pteague> choward> hehe, it's just that i'm only getting 3.2 of 4g ram & the other day i discovered i was using swap space...  firefox was over 600 mb ram, konqueror was about 400 mb, thunderbird was around 300mb i think & it dropped drastically from there
[13:29] <RioMerc> It was a joke. A good one too
[13:29] <choward> but it is funnier when the letters are big and scarry..
[13:30] <choward> archman you don't need to ask to ask... just ask. heheh.
[13:30] <RioMerc> :P
[13:30] <RioMerc> Wait, it's better if...
[13:30] <zack1> Why would a modprobe command do nothing? I typed in "sudo modprobe -r airo" but nothing happens
[13:30] <pteague> can i ask to ask? :)
[13:31] <choward> if you get nothing it probably worked zack1 ..
[13:31] <archman> choward: i want to start ubuntu from scratch; but i want 2 partitions; how to do that? which one has to be logical, which one primary or what?

[13:32] <dijenerate> hi all
[13:32] <choward> Primary is a logical partition... confusing I know.
[13:32] <RioMerc> OonSuomesta: Possibly because the cooling device wasn't able to be turned on?
[13:33] <RioMerc> Unless you don't have one, which would be confusing
[13:33] <dijenerate> anyone here an expert on PS/2 devicces?
[13:33] <dijenerate> I need a little help
[13:33] <RioMerc> So di I
[13:33] <archman> choward: os can you explain how should i do it?
[13:33] <OonSuomesta> RioMerc: It IS on, but still that message keeps on spamming the log every 8 seconds
[13:33] <archman> please?
[13:33] <RioMerc> *do I
[13:33] <RioMerc> Hmm
[13:33] <zack1> Also when I type "sudo modprobe snd-intel8x0" it just waits, nothing happens
[13:33] <RioMerc> OonSuomesta: Maybe it's just poorly supported on Ubuntu/Linux?
[13:34] <Matthai> hi people, I would like to translate boot menu on livecd to slovenian language - in hardy it is only partial translated. How to do that?
[13:34] <dijenerate> question in the open... if you have a laptop which has a PS/2 touchpad and a PS/2 trackstick with mouse buttons on the same bus... how do you get ubuntu to see both when it usually sees only the touchpad?
[13:34] <RioMerc> Damnit, Ubuntu needs a HardwareDB
[13:34] <OonSuomesta> maybe, but is there any way I could stop it from coming? Sometimes when I actually need to get some real infomation, its stupid to have to search for it from a mass of those messages
[13:34] <RioMerc> dijenerate: I think there's ##hardware for that
[13:34] <Pici> !hcl | RioMerc
[13:34] <ubotu> RioMerc: For lists of supported hardware on Ubuntu see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupport - To help debugging and improving hardware detection, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingHardwareDetection
[13:34] <zack1> dijenerate i would guess you have to have it added in your xorg.conf
[13:34] <RioMerc> Lol
[13:34] <RioMerc> Thanks, Pici
[13:34] <Pici> RioMerc: sure thing
[13:34] <RioMerc> Bookmarked

[13:34] <choward> archman run the Ubuntu Live/Install CD and when it gets to the disk partitionar select manual. Then create three partions, two for Ubuntu and one for swap
[13:35] <Jahromeo> guys quick question does xubuntu have same repos as ubuntu?
[13:35] <RioMerc> Jack_Sparrow, Is that keybound? :P
[13:35] <DuperMan> Jahromeo - they all do
[13:35] <dijenerate> zackl: both? even tho' dmesg only reports one at boot time?
[13:35] <archman> choward: i know that; what i dont know is the mount point
[13:35] <choward> I take it archman you want two partitions for Ubuntu or are you dual-booting with windows?
[13:36] <archman> choward: i want clean ubuntu machine
[13:36] <choward> archman one of the mount points has to be \
[13:36] <DuperMan> x k n' edu
[13:36] <OonSuomesta> Jahromeo: Most of them are the same, but xubuntu is just pretty much more stripped, so it has the same "repos", but much less
[13:36] <archman> choward: maybe / ? you mean?
[13:36] <Jahromeo> thanks
[13:36] <RioMerc> Well gents
[13:36] <RioMerc> I'm AFK
[13:36] <spydon> can someone try if "ssh spydon.is-a-geek.net" works?
[13:36] <Jahromeo> also is mythtv supported in ubuntu repos?
[13:36] <DuperMan> yeah
[13:36] <Jahromeo> or what would a good tv solution be for an old pc i want to make into a tv machine
[13:37] <DuperMan> there's actually a mythbuntu
[13:37] <choward> I'd make the other partition /home... yes /  been working on Windows server 2003 all week.
[13:37] <DuperMan> how old?
[13:37] <DuperMan> plan to pvr?
[13:37] <archman> choward: so one is / and the other is...?
[13:37] <Jahromeo> its an old 550 mhz box - its just gonna run an old flyvideo card, no recording
[13:37] <Jahromeo> just pure and simple a tv
[13:37] <archman> choward: maybe /media  ?
[13:37] <choward> I get muh slashes mixed up when RDCing into a Windows server from my Ubuntu desktop.
[13:38] <DuperMan> cool
[13:38] <skarface> spydon: works
[13:38] <Jahromeo> i just need to check if my old lifeview card is supported in mythtv - is that the recommended program to use?
[13:38] <spydon> thx skarface
[13:38] <Pici> !tv | Jahromeo check here
[13:38] <ubotu> Jahromeo check here: http://www.linuxtv.org/ has extensive information about using TV cards under Linux. Available viewers for analog cards: Zapping, tvtime (GTK/GNOME), kdetv (KDE), xawtv, motv. For digital cards: Klear (KDE), dvb-utils. For both analog and digital cards, !MythTV is a powerful framework. Your card may work the !IVTV drivers. See also !TV-Out
[13:38] <Jahromeo> havnt run a linux tv box b4
[13:38] <choward> archman no do not use /media  Ubuntu uses this mount point for removable devices.
[13:38] <DuperMan> dunno mythtv well enough, but it should do
[13:38] <choward> What do you want the other mount point for archman?
[13:38] <dijenerate> zackl: cat /dev/psaux only reports something when the trackpad is touched, not the trackstick or mouse buttons
[13:39] <anox> archman: / would be your root mount point, where /home stores the user files
[13:39] <Jahromeo> thanks guys
[13:39] <anox> i would suggest 10GB for / and rest for /home
[13:39] <archman> choward: i want two partitions, ext3...
[13:39] <DuperMan> archman: i'd recommend a root ( / ) and a /home
[13:39] <DuperMan> lol@anox
[13:39] <sp> dijenerate: if you are looking for a (combined) mouse device you should have a look at /dev/input/mice
[13:40] <sp> dijenerate: event generated by *all* connected mice should end up there
[13:40] <archman> DuperMan: so i create one /, one /home, and one for swap? that's it?
[13:40] <DuperMan> yeah
[13:40] <dijenerate> sp: did that too only reports for trackpad
[13:40] <anox> make /swap = size of your RAM
[13:40] <anox> DuperMan: why lol ?
[13:40] <choward> archman make /swap 1.5-2x RAM
[13:40] <archman> DuperMan: will /home be automatically mounted the first time i enter ubuntu?
[13:40] <anox> choward: even better
[13:40] <DuperMan> i've been writing the same forever anon
[13:41] <dijenerate> sp: problem is they are both on the same bus, so I don't know how to get them both seen
[13:41] <archman> choward: it has to be 0.5 RAM...
[13:41] <DuperMan> and you beat me to it
[13:41] <DuperMan> stupid umpc kb:P
[13:41] <LawrenceDJ> me fucky fucky Fatima Zahra (prophet Muhammad's daughter)
[13:41] <hwilde> swap has to be atleast the size of the ram
[13:41] <LawrenceDJ> me so horny
[13:41] <LawrenceDJ> me fucky fucky Fatima Zahra (prophet Muhammad's daughter)
[13:41] <archman> choward: 0.5 %
[13:41] <sp> dijenerate: that sounds weird... /dev/input/mice should report back for all mice, as its name suggests
[13:41] <DuperMan> yes. /home will serve as home "folder"
[13:41] <choward> archman if you have 2GB RAM you want your /swap partition to be 2-4GB
[13:42] <dijenerate> sp: I know... hence my seeking expert help
[13:42] <DuperMan> also nicer to have old disc for swap
[13:42] <dijenerate> sp: This is on the Flipstart E1001S btw, http://www.flipstartpc.com
[13:42] <anox> this is dull, why not just google "ubuntu installation" :D
[13:42] <choward> . /swap is not like the windows swap file.  it is its own partition and linux uses it well...
[13:42] <archman> choward: i have 1.2 gigs now, and swap is 500; it no problem; i always though swap is half the ram...goood...:-(
[13:43] <sp> dijenerate: how are both devices connected to the system?
[13:43] <Pici> Swap should be larger than the ram you have if you ever plan on hibernating your system.
[13:43] <turdega> archman, please refer to https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SwapFaq
[13:43] <DuperMan> anyone ever tried setting swap to sdhc/dok?
[13:44] <anox> swap must not be larger than your RAM
[13:44] <Pici> anox: Excuse me? Why not?
[13:44] <anox> its a good to have features in case you upgrade
[13:44] <archman> turdega: so i see....sorry
[13:44] <anox> *feature
[13:44] <dijenerate> sp: on the same internal PS/2 port (like a barcode reader and mouse sharing the same PS/2 port)
[13:44] <archman> anox: wtf?????now????
[13:44] <Mmee1> if i want to make vfat partition mounted as READ ONLY what do i put for mount options?
[13:44] <DuperMan> hmmm,,, swap can be bigger
[13:44] <anox> swap has to be at least the size of your RAM if you want to hibernate
[13:45] <turdega> archman, no problem, this will tell you about how to size and create your swap partition to your needs.  personally I go with RAM * 2
[13:45] <zack1__> jack_sparrow Ok I did what you except how do I provide a link to the uploaded file? do you mean the one I downloaded and that was supposively uploaded?
[13:45] <sp> dijenerate: ok, that sounds weird, but I just noticed that I am not receiving events from my touchpad via /dev/input/mice either
[13:45]  * DuperMan is ir-seasick
[13:45] <Pici> anox: I just said that, you said it needed to be *smaller*
[13:45] <anox> Pici: i did not say that
[13:45] <sp> dijenerate: what does "dmesg | grep -i mouse" say? does it give you a hint at one /class/input/inputN device?
[13:45] <Jack_Sparrow> zack1__, PLease read what you wrote and re-phrase it?
[13:45] <Pici> anox:  <?anox> swap must not be larger than your RAM
[13:45] <archman> i think im going to make one ntfs, and one ext3 and swap....
[13:45] <DuperMan> set it to twice the ram
[13:46] <choward> " <anox> swap must not be larger than your RAM"
[13:46] <dijenerate> sp: windows has a driver that creates a virtual controller device for the trackstick so it can differentiate
[13:46] <DuperMan> no case not to with current discs
[13:46] <archman> can i exclude files with remastersys backup tool?
[13:46] <anox> "not larger" does not mean smaller..
[13:46] <Mmee1> if i want to make vfat partition mounted as READ ONLY what do i put for mount options?
[13:46] <dijenerate> sp: I'll tell u in a bit.. re-installing studio 8.04 beta now
[13:46] <choward> anox tell that to my girlfriend.
[13:47] <anox> hehe
[13:47] <DuperMan> anox: it means 'smaller or equal'
[13:47] <pteague> is there a tool for measuring pixels on the desktop?
[13:47] <anox> ok i meant equal
[13:47] <zack1__> Jack, sorry I wasn't paying attention. I did what you said to do about my sound except I have not posted on #alsa yet because you said I needed to post a link to the uploaded file. Which uploaded file are you referring to?
[13:47] <sp> dijenerate: also, there might be multiple /dev/input/mouseN devices
[13:47] <DuperMan> a ruler
[13:47] <DuperMan> :P
[13:47] <archman> guys can i exclude the whole folders with remastersys??
[13:47] <sp> dijenerate: you can have a look at that whilst installing actually
[13:47] <choward> <--has never used remastersys
[13:47] <napi> not really ubuntu related but what the hey- any one here experienced ruby users?
[13:47] <Jahromeo> what can i use for tv if i dont need pvr, myth and mythbuntu both seem to be for faster machines than i have in mind
[13:47] <DuperMan> sorry napi
[13:47] <Jahromeo> what is a basic tv client
[13:47] <pteague> DuperMan> thanks - kruler was what i was looking for :)
[13:48] <Pici> napi: Try #ruby
[13:48] <Jack_Sparrow> zack1__, when you run that script.. it returns a link to the pastebin. that is what you give to the people in #Alsa
[13:48] <DuperMan> wish i was:)
[13:48] <DuperMan> wish i was:)
[13:48] <napi> Pici trying it... loads of people, no one says anything... ever :o
[13:48] <zack1__> jack, where do i find this link?
[13:48] <DuperMan> lol@pteague - was joking, glad it existed
[13:48] <dijenerate> sp: installing via console, not gui
[13:48] <Pici> napi: try #ruby-lang instead then
[13:49] <napi> ah nice. thanks pici
[13:49] <dijenerate> sp: I have gui installs, livecds are too slow

[13:52] <navaburo_> I did a (failed) custom install of an ipw3945 driver. How can I restore to the default driver?
[13:52] <zack1__> jack, oh it didnt work before because I typed "yes" instead of "y" thank you for your help!
[13:52] <Jack_Sparrow> |shinoj|, At start or install press F6 and remove Quiet and Splash from the command line. If it still fails.. Repeat and after removing quiet and splash add noapic acpi=off before the "--"
[13:52] <|shinoj|> i have on nvdia card
[13:52] <ephesius> if i setup a software raid can i add new disks to it as i get them
[13:52] <new> hello, i need some help... i installed gutsy to a pc of a friend. all is working fine, except this: he needed emacs, i installed it, it works as expected, he saves his work as in windows with a .c extension, but when he treis to run it with "gcc <filename>" it doesn;t work as in windows. instead it displays some error message.
[13:52] <|shinoj|> is it because of this card?
[13:52] <choward> |shinoij| Ubuntu didnt like your monitior..
[13:53] <sp> dijenerate: mhh, true... both should work via the same /dev/psaux device
[13:53] <TheLittlePrince> If I open a terminal, the following message is displayed. "declare -x USER=... declare -x PWD=... declare -x LOGNAME=... ~~~" what's wrong? I don't wanna see it. What should I do?
 what is the error message
[13:53] <Pici> new: We'd need to know what the error message is
[13:53] <sp> dijenerate: are you sure there is nothing like a switch on the laptop that switches one off and the other on?
 also did you install the build-essentials package
[13:54] <sp> dijenerate: any other way I would guess that the device that is not working expects some kind of initialization code
[13:54] <new> it says an error in some line. i.e. in the code he had written. but with exactly the same code as in windows, where it wasn't displayed.
[13:54] <dijenerate> sp: no switch, I wish, it would make life much easier
[13:54] <marianom> hi everyone.
[13:54] <new> i can't prvd the code at the moment, i'm on another pc
[13:54] <marianom> I know this guy who tried to resize a disk he has
[13:54] <Pici> new: Linux does not use the same exact c++ headers that Windows does.  I suspect that something like this is happening.
[13:55] <new> does it have to do with the gcc version?
[13:55] <marianom> but instead it seems he erased the partition table
[13:55] <dijenerate> sp: that would be design overkill for a pointing device so I'm hoping not
[13:55] <marianom> losing 4 partitions in the process
[13:55] <Jack_Sparrow> marianom, Please keep the question all on one line.. It makes it so much easier to read
[13:55] <Pici> new: No, it has to do that you are running Linux, not Windows.  Further help in ##C++
[13:55] <new> ok thanx
[13:55] <marianom> ok, Jack_Sparrow, thanks for the tip
[13:55] <Jack_Sparrow> np
 thanks
[13:56] <Jack_Sparrow> |shinoj|, hope that helped
[13:56] <marianom> I know this guy who tried to resize a disk he has but instead it seems he erased the partition table losing 4 partitions in the process I recommended him parted and he run a rescue start end and successfully recovered the first partition but he cannot find the last three can you guys recomend a suitable method for recovering the missing partitions?

[14:07] <jaro> Hi guys... can someone help, I don't know how to use em2880 for analog TV output....
[14:08] <jaro> i always used dvb.. but that's not possible anymore
[14:09] <ere4si> Rando: at login click options - sessions and it should be listed
[14:09] <InSaN3> hi
[14:09] <jaro> hi
[14:09] <agile> any of you successfully done a server install from a usb stick?
[14:09] <jaro> i need to switch from dvbt to analog tv with em28xx
[14:09] <InSaN3> dose anyone no how to hide your ip?
[14:09] <Rando> ere4si - I'm not sure if I"m maybe asking for the wrong thing.... I thought BitchX was an IRC client
[14:09] <navaburo> InSaN3, in IRC?
[14:09] <InSaN3> yes
[14:09] <Odd-rationale> InSaN3: Try using tor+privoxy
[14:09] <Odd-rationale> !info tor | InSaN3
[14:09] <navaburo> or by using a vhost
[14:10] <InSaN3> were do i get it?
[14:10] <InSaN3> vhost?
[14:10] <zack1__> My wireless card is detected by my system and it says it has a driver, but iwconfig says I have no wireless extentions and the wireless card (eth1) is not even on the list. Do I need to remove the driver?

[14:10] <ere4si> Rando: nope my mistake - type Bitchx in a terminal
[14:10] <ubotu> InSaN3: Many Ubuntu IRC channels prohibit access from !proxies such as !TOR due to a high level of abuse. You can however obtain a hostmask cloak: see http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#cloaks

[14:12] <sjovan> bazhang: maby you should read the articel....
[14:12] <Rando> typing bitchx-gtk at a terminal prompt doesn't run.... shouldn't there be a menu item for it somewhere if it's a gui frontend for bitchX?
