[03:28] <Kamping_Kaiser> jordo23: your apache config file is screwed
[03:29] <Kamping_Kaiser> and can i sugest using dist-upgrade?
[03:29] <Kritical> Killgore & soonindallas: Thankyou very much =)
[03:29] <soonindallas> Kritical: mac addresses are listed as HWaddr
[03:29] <jordo23> Kamping_Kaiser: I don't even need apache on this machine, should I remove it too?
[03:30] <Kamping_Kaiser> jordo23: i asume it's needed for phpldadmin
[03:30] <fiendskull9> foureight84, you can also do System | admin | Disks, and set the HDD/partition acsess to your preferred space.
[03:30] <GNU_Style> Sqwishy, I just moved my ubuntu installation to another logical partition. how do I reinstall grub?
[03:30] <jordo23> Kamping_Kaiser: I am trying to remove phpldapadmin but it will not let me
[03:30] <Killgore> GNU_Style: no need
[03:30] <Killgore> GNU_Style: just have to edit grub.conf
[03:30] <fiendskull9> Killgore, hell have to edit his menu.lst for grub to detect it
[03:30] <GNU_Style> Sqwishy, and tell  it to find /boot/menu/list on /dev/sda8 instead of /dev/hda1
[03:31] <fiendskull9> Killgore, and menu.lst, and set the kernel launch to a diff HD partition.
[03:31] <Kamping_Kaiser> jordo23: sudo apt-get --purge remove apache2 phpldapadmin < - should do it
[03:31] <Killgore> fiendskull9: yep
[03:31] <SithPottsy-0x80> where do i talk about xgl?
[03:31] <Sqwishy> GNU_Style: just a sec my brain (smart brother) left for a second
[03:31] <foureight84> yea i mounted the thing
[03:31] <fiendskull9> SithPottsy-0x80, here i gues ?
[03:31] <foureight84> it works
[03:31] <GNU_Style> Killgore, I have to cuz the bootloader on /dev/sda1 is winxp default so I have to ovewrite it to GRUB, how do I do that?
[03:31] <Frogzoo> SithPottsy-0x80: #ubuntu+1 might be able to help
[03:31] <jordo23> Kamping_Kaiser: Why dist upgrade?
[03:32] <SithPottsy-0x80> i thought there was ubuntu-xgl ?
[03:32] <fiendskull9> SithPottsy-0x80, no, only in dapper
[03:32] <Kamping_Kaiser> jordo23: it tryies to resolv dependancies better then upgrade
[03:32] <SithPottsy-0x80> im dapper
[03:32] <jordo23> Kamping_Kaiser:   Thanks
[03:32] <Kamping_Kaiser> np
[03:33] <fiendskull9> that numnut left
[03:33] <Khamael> will upgrading from breezy to dapper be a pain? or just a matter of apt-get dist-upgrade?
[03:33] <fiendskull9> Khamael, from what ive heard it takes awhile.
[03:33] <Killgore> GNU_Style: sudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst
[03:33] <_jason> Khamael: the latter
[03:33] <Kamping_Kaiser> Khamael: shoudl be easy, but the odd thing might go a bit worng
[03:33] <phenex> a painfully long apt-get dist-upgrade :)
[03:34] <fiendskull9> phenex, well, it didnt take long on my other box as i have t1 :) and linux really pushes t1 to its peak.
[03:34] <phenex> i guess long is a relative term...
[03:34] <Khamael> a long apt-get dist-upgrade is ok, as long as it works
[03:34] <GNU_Style> Killgore, I mean I have to install GRUB to /dev/sda how to do that?
[03:36] <fiendskull9> creepy silence
[03:36] <Kamping_Kaiser> *mwahahaha*
[03:37] <Killgore> oh
[03:37] <Killgore> umm hang on GNU_Style
[03:37] <Kamping_Kaiser> fiendskull9: I'm not an assasin, I'm just evil :D
[03:37] <fiendskull9> Kamping_Kaiser, :P
[03:37] <foureight84> okay
[03:37] <GNU_Style> Killgore, okies
[03:37] <foureight84> i can't figure it out
[03:37] <Kamping_Kaiser> :P
[03:37] <IdleOne> fiendskull9, what the language and please take offtopic discussion to #ubuntu-offtopic
[03:38] <Killgore> GNU_Style: sudo grub-install --no-floppy /dev/sda
[03:38] <Sqwishy> yeah
[03:38] <foureight84> like when i click on the the "computer" icon on my desktop, there is a floppy disk, cd rom, dvd burner... that sort of thing. now i mounted hda1 and hdb1 to /mnt/C and /mnt/D, how do i make a drive icon linking to that?
[03:38] <Sqwishy> that sounds right
[03:39] <Killgore> doesnt ubuntu like things mounted in /media or it doesnt matter
[03:39] <foureight84> that doesn't matter
[03:39] <foureight84> you can mount it anywhere
[03:40] <Kamping_Kaiser> Killgore: if someone made it that i had to mount paritions in /media i would go and disembowl them
[03:40] <Killgore> oookay then
[03:40] <foureight84> lol
[03:40] <GNU_Style> Killgore, ok will try
[03:40] <Killgore> can i mount it in /home?
[03:40] <foureight84> yea
[03:40] <BludY> hey guys, where i can find MAN-IPTABLES?
[03:40] <Kamping_Kaiser> BludY: tried 'man iptables' in a terminal?
[03:41] <BludY> mmm
[03:41] <BludY> wait
[03:41] <Nabiki> :P How many windows manages/desktop environments can I have safely installed? :P
[03:41] <BludY> no
[03:41] <Killgore> unlmited
[03:41] <BludY> dont work
[03:41] <Killgore> Nabiki: as many as you want or need
[03:41] <GNU_Style> Killgore, before I overwrite my windows mbr can I back it up 1st?
[03:41] <GNU_Style> Killgore, how?
[03:41] <Killgore> yep
[03:41] <BludY> uff
[03:42] <foureight84> killgore
[03:42] <Killgore> GNU_Style: ooh thats a tough one
[03:42] <Zoroaster> good day everyone
[03:42] <GNU_Style> Killgore, its hard?
[03:42] <fiendskull9> Mornin Zoroaster
[03:42] <foureight84> Killgore: how do i add hdd link to my mount in the "computer" folder?
[03:42] <Zoroaster> does ubuntu have a putty style client?
[03:42] <Nabiki> :P I used sudo apt-get install kde, and it said that it couldn't install it because it couldn't find kdesk. ^^;;
[03:43] <_jason> Zoroaster: the terminal
[03:43] <GNU_Style> how can I backup my windows MBR before overwriting it with grub
[03:43] <foureight84> Killgore: lol too many questions all at once
[03:43] <foureight84> you don't need to back it up GNU_style
[03:43] <fiendskull9> Nabiki, are u just wanting kde enviroment?
[03:43] <foureight84> just overwrite it
[03:43] <fiendskull9> Nabiki, or all its programs
[03:43] <foureight84> and when you need to restore it
[03:43] <Khamael> is it possible to use xgl in breezy?
[03:43] <foureight84> pop in the windows disk
[03:43] <_jason> Zoroaster: install openssh-client and just do 'ssh user@host'
[03:43] <foureight84> and go into rescue mode and type fixmbr
[03:43] <Zoroaster> _jason, ok, thanks will try that
[03:43] <Nabiki> kde environment for the moment.
[03:43] <redguy> Killgore: dd if=/dev/hda of=mbr_backup bs=512 count=1
[03:43] <Killgore> foureight84: im not sure i always wanted that
[03:43] <GNU_Style> foureight84, can I safely overwrite and restor if anything goes wrong?
[03:44] <Killgore> redguy: doi how could i forget that
[03:44] <redguy> Killgore: if hda is the drive which mbr you want to backup
[03:44] <fiendskull9> Nabiki, sudo apt-get install kde-base
[03:44] <foureight84> GNU_Style, fixmbr restores it
[03:44] <fiendskull9> GNU_Style, get a fdisk dos boot disk (for free) (or just a dos boot disk) and do fdisk mbr
[03:44] <fiendskull9> itll clear it
[03:44] <Nabiki> Is there a reason it could not find kdesk though?  Is it not in the standard repository?
[03:44] <redguy> erm, that was for you GNU_Style ..
[03:44] <_jason> Nabiki: I'd recommend aptitude instead of apt-get for installing that so you can easily remove it
[03:44] <fiendskull9> Nabiki, i dunno
[03:45] <Nabiki> That is odd. ^^;;
[03:45] <GNU_Style> redguy, MBR of /dev/sda
[03:45] <fiendskull9> _jason, sudo apt-get remove kde-base
[03:45] <foureight84> i'll post my question on the forums or search for it on the net
[03:45] <foureight84> killgore; thanks though
[03:45] <_jason> !info kde-base
[03:46] <_jason> fiendskull9: that package doesn't even exist it seems
[03:46] <Killgore> GNU_Style: that dd command will back up the first 512 bytes of the drive which is where the bootloader is stored
[03:46] <fiendskull9> _jason, yeah, i realized. it did before
[03:46] <fiendskull9> _jason, hmmm
[03:46] <GNU_Style> ic.. dd go it
[03:46] <redguy> GNU_Style: dd if=/dev/sda of=mbr_backup bs=512 count=1
[03:46] <fiendskull9> _jason & Nabiki: its kdebase
[03:46] <GNU_Style> redguy, how do I restore?
[03:47] <fiendskull9> GNU_Style, get a fdisk dos boot floppy!
[03:47] <fiendskull9> GNU_Style, and type fdisk mbr
[03:47] <_jason> fiendskull9: ok back to the discussion though, it's just a metapackage, so apt-get remove kdebase won't actually remove its dependencies
[03:47] <Nabiki> It can't find KDE base either. O.o;;
[03:47] <redguy> what fiendskull9 is also correct, but I am telling you about the linux way
[03:47] <fiendskull9> _jason, it should, it worked for me, same with other window manangers
[03:47] <Nabiki> Oh! Thanks. (just read the scroll(
[03:47] <redguy> GNU_Style: ^^
[03:47] <fiendskull9> redguy, OK
[03:47] <fiendskull9> redguy, lol
[03:48] <Healot> why the the command can't be easier? for example "strip 512 /dev/sda file=mbr" :)
[03:48] <_jason> fiendskull9: did it get rid of kate for example?
[03:48] <redguy> GNU_Style: to restore you would just dd if=mbr_backup of=/dev/sda
[03:48] <joan> hola mi nombre es JOan
[03:48] <joan> Joan
[03:48] <foureight84> Killgore: oooo!!! i get it, if i mount it under /media then it automatically shows up
[03:48] <_jason> !es
[03:48] <ubotu> Hispanohablantes: Por favor usen #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, alli obtendran mas ayuda.
[03:48] <fiendskull9> _jason, i dunno, i didnt much pay attention.
[03:48] <GNU_Style> redguy, can I just create an image of my logical drive and copy it to c:\ so that windows's bootloader can load linux?
[03:48] <foureight84> Killgore: lol so simple... hahaha
[03:49] <fiendskull9> _jason, you can also remove the entire kde folder from your system if apt-get remove doesnt worjk
[03:49] <Nabiki> :P  You can use lilo to fix the mbr ^^
[03:49] <fiendskull9> Nabiki, ewwwwwwwwww
[03:49] <Rdde> Hey, i just added a 200bg sata disk to my system.. its found in bios and had 2 ntfs partions on it.. how do i mount it to share whit samba? (looked in all my books, seem to be 2 simple =))
[03:49] <redguy> GNU_Style: you can do that with dd as well
[03:49] <fiendskull9> Nabiki, i hate lilo
[03:49] <GNU_Style> redguy, syntax?
[03:49] <_jason> fiendskull9: well that doesn't really sound like the right way to do it :P
[03:49] <[Wiebel] > Li...
[03:49] <[Wiebel] > :
[03:49] <Nabiki> fiendskull9, If he is using XP it will work better than trying to use fdisk ^^;;
[03:49] <[Wiebel] > :>
[03:49] <fiendskull9> _jason, ill ductape KDE to the system :D
[03:49] <redguy> GNU_Style: erm, no, you can make windows bootloader to boostrap grub or lilo
[03:50] <redguy> GNU_Style: you would have to install grub in the partition's boot record
[03:50] <Killgore> foureight84: sorry i knew the answer to that :(
[03:50] <redguy> GNU_Style: windows' boot loader sucks big time compared to GRUB for example
[03:50] <fiendskull9> Nabiki, but XP doesnt come with most old dos programs (like fdisk)
[03:50] <Rdde> can anyone help me plz?
[03:50] <GNU_Style> so ill just install GRUB to /dev/sda8 (which is safer) and use dd copy grub and load it  from windows?
[03:50] <martin__> asfhggfka
[03:50] <Killgore> Rdde: you will have to mount it
[03:50] <fiendskull9> Nabiki, and i didnt know xp had a mbr wiper
[03:50] <martin__> itsoooooooooooooooo
[03:50] <martin__> .xkckja
[03:50] <martin__> jzurye
[03:50] <Killgore> Rdde: have u ever mounted anyhting beofre?
[03:50] <martin__> zyv
[03:50] <Frogzoo> !tell Rdde about helpme
[03:51] <Rdde> Killgore, long time a go
[03:51] <Zoroaster> from the terminal, how would I list all users that are setup in ubuntu 5.10?
[03:51] <Kritical> Can you have 2 subnets/ips with 1 ethernet adapter?
[03:51] <Zoroaster> is there a list users command
[03:51] <Frogzoo> Kritical: eth0.0 etc
[03:51] <Healot> Kritical: : yes... with aliases
[03:51] <Killgore> Rdde: first make a folder sudo mkdir /media/SATA1
[03:51] <Frogzoo> Kritical: my bad, eth0:0
[03:52] <Killgore> Rdde: r u in linux now
[03:52] <Nabiki> fiendskull9, It does, but you have to install the recover console options to get to it.. And if you have updated the WinXP kernel since installing windows, then it won't let you install the recovery console. ^^;;
[03:52] <arrick> morning all
[03:52] <Fawzib> hello, I have a question about building packages. I created a package using dpkg-buildpackage what files do I need to add in the repository? I know I need the .deb, but I have other files (.dsc , .diff.gz, .changes, .orig.tar.gz) which ones do I need?
[03:52] <redguy> GNU_Style: http://www.tprthai.net/bootmgr.htm
[03:52] <Nabiki> Meaning you HAVE to install it right from the start to really get access to it.
[03:52] <redguy> GNU_Style: but I really recommend using GRUB
[03:52] <arrick> Hi all, How do I turn on my usb ports?
[03:52] <Healot> Kritical:  "man interfaces" on how to create subinterfaces
[03:52] <GNU_Style> redguy, im afraid overwriting my mbr of /dev/sda, maybe it will cause windows to be unbotable
[03:53] <fiendskull9> arrick, hey man! they should be on all ready :-/
[03:53] <Rdde> Killgore, yep, done
[03:53] <Killgore> GNU_Style: not if you save it first
[03:53] <fiendskull9> GNU_Style, no, grub will detect it
[03:53] <Frogzoo> arrick: they should be 'on' by default, (hotplug will detect them)
[03:53] <fiendskull9> GNU_Style, you can also make a windows xp boot disk
[03:53] <Killgore> Rdde: now run sudo fdisk -l and paste the results in the channel #flood
[03:53] <fiendskull9> GNU_Style, so you can just pop in the floppy, and itll find your windows partition and boot it
[03:53] <arrick> freidnskull9: Frogzoo: somehow I am unable to contact my printer
[03:54] <fiendskull9> arrick, fie <tab>
[03:54] <rapha> Hi all!
[03:54] <tanuki> can someone tell me how to add a 'trashcan' item to my desktop?
[03:54] <laffer> http://pastebin.com/624956 when I type make it returns this. what do I do?
[03:54] <Frogzoo> arrick: disconnect the usb, 'tail -f /var/log/messages' plug back in -what msg do you get?
[03:54] <arrick> fie <tab>
[03:54] <arrick> hang on
[03:54] <_jason> Zoroaster: maybe cut -d : -f 1 /etc/passwd
[03:54] <rapha> Does anybody else have problems with the Flight 5 .iso? Whenever I burn it and try to MD5sum the CD, I get I/O errors.
[03:54] <Rdde> Killgore, how do i copy from terminal window?
[03:54] <Frogzoo> rapha: burn slower
[03:54] <fiendskull9> arrick, its not a command :D its how to get my name right here.
[03:54] <redguy> GNU_Style: doubtfull. as fiendskull9 said you can always bring the windows' MBR code back with a floppy or dd it as I told you
[03:54] <Rdde> Killgore, got it
[03:55] <foureight84> killgore: i did sudo rm -rf /mnt/C on accident. i was trying to do rm -f. it tried to delete a bunch of stuff.... anychance i screwed something up?
[03:55] <engla> foureight84: there is a big chance you deleted lots of files
[03:55] <Killgore> lol
[03:55] <Killgore> a huge chance
[03:55] <foureight84> lol damn it
[03:55] <fiendskull9> tanuki, why do you need one on your desktop? there is one in the bottom right corner]
[03:55] <rapha> Frogzoo: How? There is no setting for that in Ubuntu, or is there?
[03:55] <Killgore> dl mate
[03:55] <foureight84> ugh uh
[03:55] <tanuki> i would prefer to have it on the desktop
[03:55] <Killgore> what was in C
[03:55] <GNU_Style> redguy, ill go with GRUB then, will grub automatically find menu.list in /dev/sda8/boot/GRUB?
[03:55] <foureight84> nothing was in C
[03:55] <foureight84> but it was trying to delete stuff outside of C
[03:55] <Killgore> oh
[03:55] <rapha> Frogzoo: well, it's grayed out anyway and says "Max possible,"
[03:56] <Frogzoo> rapha: burn with k3b - it will let you set burn speed for sure
[03:56] <laffer> can someone help me? with this laffer@golias:~/ez-ipupdate-3.0.11b7$ make
[03:56] <Killgore> put some of it in flood
[03:56] <foureight84> oh nvm
[03:56] <laffer> sory
[03:56] <Killgore> k
[03:56] <GNU_Style> redguy, note that I just copied my entire /dev/hda1 to /dev/sda8
[03:56] <engla> foureight84: it can't delete anything outside /mnt/C if the command was exactly that
[03:56] <laffer> with laffer@golias:~/ez-ipupdate-3.0.11b7$ make
[03:56] <laffer> sorry again
[03:56] <foureight84> whew!! it was mounted as read only
[03:56] <engla> foureight84: but look around and gauge the damage
[03:56] <foureight84> yea you're right
[03:56] <rapha> Frogzoo: isn't there something that doesn't require all the KDE dependancies?
[03:56] <Rdde> Killgore,  pasted it in private
[03:56] <fiendskull9> foureight84, if its ntfs itll be ready only
[03:56] <laffer> http://pastebin.com/624956 < with this
[03:56] <foureight84> it's recursive inside
[03:56] <foureight84> whew
[03:56] <foureight84> it was
[03:56] <foureight84> lol
[03:56] <GNU_Style> means that GRUB will look for menu.list in /dev/hda1/Boot/grub
[03:56] <foureight84> i changed it to rw just right now
[03:57] <foureight84> it was in read only before
[03:57] <fiendskull9> lol
[03:57] <engla> foureight84: and if that is a windows ntfs disk, don't try to rw or write anything to it
[03:57] <Frogzoo> rapha: you can set drive speed with hdparm -E ...
[03:57] <arrick> fiendskull9: thanks
[03:57] <foureight84> awh it can't?
[03:57] <tanuki> can someone tell me how to add a trashcan item to my desktop?
[03:57] <foureight84> i thought ntfs was fully supported by now
[03:57] <fiendskull9> foureight84, you can screw siomething up trying to write to ntfs
[03:57] <engla> foureight84: it can write to ntfs disks, but I think it's very risky
[03:57] <rapha> Frogzoo: cool, thanks!
[03:57] <fiendskull9> engla, yeah
[03:57] <engla> !ntfs
[03:57] <_jason> !desktop-icons
[03:57] <ubotu> [ntfs]  the filesystem used in Windows NT and newer; to automatically mount your NTFS partition: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AutomaticallyMountMSWindowsPartitions
[03:57] <ubotu> To have icons for drives and the trashcan on your Gnome desktop, run the GConf Editor (Applications -> System Tools -> Configuration Editor) and edit the keys in /apps/nautilus/desktop and/or /apps/nautilus/general
[03:57] <foureight84> ah i see
[03:57] <arrick> Frogzoo: It shows up , why does it lose communication?
[03:57] <redguy> GNU_Style: hmmmm, not sure how grub finds sata drives, but I would suggest that you change every occurance of (hd0,0) to (hd0,7) in your menu.lst
[03:57] <Healot> by default, the linux ntfs driver cannot wite to ntfs disks, even with the option "rw"
[03:57] <_jason> tanuki: see what ubotu said above about icons ^
[03:57] <Frogzoo> arrick: wrong driver?
[03:57] <NoOnEx> can anyone tell me the command to check what version of a package I have installed?
[03:58] <Rdde> Killgore, did you get it?
[03:58] <Killgore> Rdde: yer
[03:58] <Frogzoo> NoOnEx: dpkg -l
[03:58] <foureight84> LOL well this is some lighted humor for you guys who have been busy for the last few hours trying to help peopel
[03:58] <_jason> NoOnEx: or apt-cache policy packagename
[03:58] <GNU_Style> (hd0,0) maybe (sd0,0)?
[03:58] <arrick> Frogzoo, its the one that all the wiki adn linuxprintning say to use with the printer.?
[03:59] <redguy> GNU_Style: I have to go, somebody else here might help you out more, or you could ask in #grub
[03:59] <NoOnEx> Thank you !
[03:59] <Killgore> Rdde: next command - sudo mount -t ntfs /media/SATA1 /dev/sda1
[03:59] <arrick> frogzoo, any suggestions?
[03:59] <GNU_Style> redguy, thanks for the time
[03:59] <laffer> can anyone tell me why http://pastebin.com/624956 happens?
[03:59] <Frogzoo> arrick: well then your printer clearly is supported - hmm...
[04:00] <Healot> laffer: can you do C?
[04:00] <Frogzoo> arrick: what exactly is the problem?
[04:00] <fiendskull9> i g2g
[04:00] <foureight84> lol okay i'm gonna boot into windows to see if anything acutally happened out of my stupidity
[04:00] <fiendskull9> have a good day all
[04:00] <juavare> hola a todos
[04:00] <laffer> Healot no
[04:00] <_jason> !es
[04:00] <ubotu> Hispanohablantes: Por favor usen #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, alli obtendran mas ayuda.
[04:00] <laffer> Healot why?
[04:00] <Healot> there's simply a silly mistake on that code
[04:00] <Healot> you need to change it yourself
[04:01] <arrick> I try to print a testpage and it gives me the following
[04:01] <Rdde> Killgore,  doesn't work.. something about isnt a block drive
[04:01] <juavare> que es eso
[04:01] <laffer> Healot what is it?
[04:01] <Frogzoo> arrick: !pastebin
[04:01] <_jason> juavare: /join #ubuntu-es
[04:01] <arrick> Frogzoo, nah, its short, gotta get it up though
[04:01] <juavare> vale
[04:02] <Frogzoo> arrick: be sure to check /var/log/cups/error_log
[04:03] <laffer> Healot how can I fix it?
[04:03] <Rdde> Killgore, the folder in media i just created isnt a block unit or something
[04:03] <Killgore> can i have the message?
[04:04] <Healot> it is explained on the error message itself, "/home/laffer/ez-ipupdate-3.0.11b7/conf_file.c:88: undefined reference to `errno'"
[04:04] <Healot> this is why you must know how to read/write C programs...
[04:04] <rapha> Frogzoo: hey, that seems to have helped! :-)
[04:04] <Frogzoo> rapha: cool :)
[04:04] <laffer> Healot I don't know neither of them, read or write.. can I still fix it?
[04:04] <arrick> Frogzoo, '"Communication was lost. Please check printer and connections." '
[04:04] <arrick> is what i get
[04:05] <Frogzoo> erk..
[04:05] <gorduxxo> hello all... does anyone know a good comedy podcast ?
[04:05] <kleinlappies> hi there
[04:05] <Healot> then nay... get help from someone who is excellent in C
[04:05] <nismo> im having trouble connecting my mp3 player to ubuntu. I have a nomad jukebox zen xtra and ive downloaded gnomad 2 but when i go to open gnomad 2, it says "Could not open jukebox: usb_set_configuration: Operation not permitted"  please help!
[04:05] <kleinlappies> what is a good bluetooth program
[04:05] <rapha> Healot: there's the excellenct #c channel!
[04:05] <Healot> tell that to laffer, rapha!
[04:05] <Frogzoo> arrick: check /var/log/messages & /var/log/cups/error_log for likely error messages
[04:05] <Rdde> Killgore, you still here mate?
[04:06] <nismo> any ideas?
[04:06] <kleinlappies> i want to put in the bluetooth dongle into my pc and then use my nokia 6680 to remote control my pc
[04:06] <rapha> Healot: woops, sorry. laffer: try #c, used to be an excellent channel for me when I was doing C.
[04:07] <arrick> ok
[04:07] <nismo> no1 wants to help?
[04:08] <tanuki> can someone tell me why rhythymbox will not recognise my mp3 files?
[04:08] <_jason> tanuki: did you install gstreamer0.8-mad?
[04:08] <tanuki> yes
[04:08] <Healot> and libmad?
[04:09] <_jason> tanuki: close rhythmbox, run gst-register-0.8, and try rhythmbox again
[04:09] <Frogzoo> nismo: no idea, soz - maybe try google on that error msg
[04:09] <Killgore> Rdde: yer
[04:09] <arrick> !pastebin
[04:09] <ubotu> I guess pastebin is a site where you can post large texts and screenshots so you don't flood the channel. You can find it at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org - Install webboard for easy pasting from the gnome taskbar ,
[04:09] <nismo> k
[04:09] <Killgore> Rdde: sorry
[04:09] <nismo> :(
[04:09] <arrick> brb
[04:09] <Healot> nismo read gnomad FAQ/documentation first, I don't think they leave users hanging to nowhere :)
[04:10] <Rdde> Killgore, np mate, you know whats wrong?
[04:11] <tanuki> _jason, k, i got it to work
[04:11] <_jason> tanuki: great
[04:11] <tanuki> is there a way to play .wma and .m4a files in ubuntu?
[04:12] <wickedpuppy> vlc
[04:12] <Thralas> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats
[04:12] <Thralas> Maybe?
[04:12] <wickedpuppy> actually thats a great way to play those files in windows too
[04:12] <wickedpuppy> !vlc
[04:12] <ubotu> rumour has it, vlc is a video/audio player that supports almost everything - See http://www.videolan.org/ for more information (VLC is in the repos)
[04:13] <Rdde> Can anyone help me mount a sata ntfs disk?
[04:14] <Killgore> Rdde: yer try this
[04:14] <Killgore> Rdde: next command - sudo mount -t ntfs /media/SATA1 /dev/sda5
[04:14] <gen> hello
[04:15] <wietse> hiya, could someone try and help me install skype in my Ubuntu???
[04:15] <Rdde> Killgore,  you know the first one didnt work?
[04:15] <Killgore> Rdde: try that and if it gives an error message put it in here
[04:15] <Healot> Killgore: that will not work
[04:15] <Frogzoo> wietse: get the skype pkg from the seveas repo
[04:15] <Frogzoo> !tell wietse about seveas
[04:15] <gen> wietse : at which step are you?
[04:16] <wietse> i've downloaded it and it asks me to do some commands in the console
[04:16] <wietse> which i don't know about
[04:16] <Killgore> Healot: what have i done wrong
[04:17] <gen> wietse : what commands exactly? I dont remember it asking for special commands
[04:17] <arrick> Frogzoo, check pastebin
[04:17] <Rdde> Killgore, it keep saying that /media/SATA1 isnt a block unit or something
[04:17] <Healot> wrong param position, device first, then mount point/// yet that device may not exist
[04:17] <wietse> ah, no sorry i'll give it a try
[04:18] <gen> wietse : it must be a graphical interface
[04:18] <wietse> thats for RPM version
[04:18] <Healot> Rdde: try this instead, are you using GNOME right now?
[04:19] <Frogzoo> wietse: if you just install the seveas pkg, it just works...
[04:19] <dockane> is there anybody who installed successfully the perl version of mapivi ?  http://mapivi.sourceforge.net/mapivi.shtml#install
[04:20] <Rdde> Healot,  GNOME? :P sorry that im really new on this =P
[04:20] <Healot> nay
[04:20] <Healot> Rdde: then stay new, and learn :)
[04:21] <wietse> Frogzoo: sorry but I haven't got a clue what you're on about. What does this have to do with me installing Skype?
[04:21] <Rdde> Healot,  im in the "xwin" if it was what you ment?
[04:21] <gen> wietse : if you select the good installer, you will have a graphical interface to install it and its done very easy.
[04:22] <wietse> cheers
[04:22] <Thralas> I'm having troubles with Cedega, apparantly I'm missing some X truetype fonts, err:font:ReadFontDir Can't open directory "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/truetype/"
[04:22] <Thralas> . Is there a package containing those fonts?
[04:23] <andriijas> what am i doing in this channel?
[04:23] <oskude> Therion, its a directory where its pointing...
[04:23] <Frogzoo> wietse: check the message from ubotu. Add the seveas repo. 'sudo apt-get install skype' & you're done
[04:23] <Killgore> Rdde: did u instal ubuntu or kubuntu on the install disc
[04:23] <Killgore> Healot: what were you thinking of doing? im pretty sure hes on GNOME
[04:24] <Healot> he said "xwin" :)
[04:24] <oskude> Therion, i found "/usr/share/fonts/truetype/" on my breezy
[04:24] <Therion> oskude: Great!
[04:25] <gen> does anyone use Steam with the recent Wine release ( > 0.9.7 ) ???
[04:25] <Thralas> Therion? Thralas?
[04:25] <Kritical> Before I even attempt this can someone tell me if this is possible: I run Ubuntu Linux.. I want to install Qemu and then run a dedicated Gateway server from it (SME Server). Using Tup Qemu/SMEServer should be able to host the entire lan?
[04:25] <Thralas> oskude, I realized that, but I don't have it. Supposing it's some pkg, I'm in need the the name
[04:26] <Killgore> Healot: xwin?
[04:26] <Rdde> Killgore, ubuntu i think?
[04:26] <oskude> Thralas, yeah ment you, not Therion , damn tab :)
[04:26] <Killgore> Healot: see it is most likely GNOME
[04:28] <wietse> gen: it opens the files in archive manager
[04:28] <bjerkkur> how do I install the Opera webbrowser
[04:28] <oskude> Thralas, your using breezy ? did you do normal install ? atleast some ttf fonts should be there...
[04:28] <Rdde> Killgore, what do you think the problem is
[04:28] <bjerkkur> I have the .deb-package, but what next, then ?
[04:29] <Killgore> Rdde: have u got the exact message?
[04:29] <gen> wietse : okay. open a console window and go where is the installer you downloaded
[04:29] <wietse> how do i do that? it's on the desktop
[04:29] <Frogzoo> Kritical: first - best use kqemu instead - 2nd, getting the networking working will likely take a bit of work
[04:29] <gen> Application > Accessorie > Terminal
[04:30] <wietse> ok got it
[04:30] <gen> then chande directory to Desktop
[04:30] <gen> cd Desktop
[04:30] <gen> is the command
[04:30] <pachules> e
[04:30] <bjerkkur> quit
[04:30] <Rdde> Killgore,  the problem is it is in swedish.. but exactly tanslated it is mount: /media/SATA1/ is not a blockunit
[04:30] <wietse> ok done
[04:31] <gen> okay
[04:31] <gen> now, type " ls "
[04:31] <arrick> anybody got a better driver for a Lexmark X6170 than the z600?
[04:31] <gen> and you should see somewhere in the middle of the items you got on your desktop, the name of the installer
[04:31] <wietse> ok it shows the file - it's the only thing thats on the desktop
[04:31] <haha> does any one know how to configure apache2? i dont like the 404 page i wanted to change that!
[04:31] <gen> ok
[04:32] <gen> is it green?
[04:32] <wietse> no
[04:32] <Killgore> Rdde: im really sorry but im not sure what your problem is. Ive never come across any errors like that before. You could try googling it
[04:32] <gen> k to be sure type "chmod 777 installer_name"  replace installer name with the right name
[04:32] <caglar> is there a program which can load a textfile to my clipboard? Or which can load stdout into my clipboard?
[04:32] <Kritical> Frogzoo: Hmm I think you're right about the networking part.. I think I'm going to give it a go still =)
[04:32] <Killgore> use autocomplete
[04:32] <gen> remember to use tab to autocomplete
[04:33] <Killgore> beat ya gen
[04:33] <gen> done? ;P
[04:33] <Rdde> Killgore,  can i mount the driver in any folder? like just /SATA ?
[04:33] <wietse> no
[04:33] <gen> I go into more explanation Killgore ^^
[04:33] <wietse> what you mean by replacing installer name with the right name?
[04:33] <Frogzoo> Killgore: there's a daemon for running a pseudo lan that might be the best approach - haven't used it though - half a sec while I find a link
[04:33] <gen> I mean you type "chmod 777 Skype_Setup"
[04:34] <wietse> ok just a sec
[04:34] <gen> then you will have to type    "   ./Skype_Setup    "
[04:34] <Killgore> Rdde: you can mount it anywhere there is an empty folder but /media will make it show up on the desktop
[04:34] <carbo> how do i change the owner of /dev/sda3, which is mounted to /windows? I've tried using nautilus as root but it says i don't have permissions even though the owner is root..
[04:34] <gen> i gotta go
[04:34] <gen> maybe Killgore can help you
[04:34] <gen> gotta grab a train
[04:34] <gen> ;)
[04:34] <gen> cya later
[04:34] <Killgore> Frogzoo: u mean like vnc?
[04:34] <Killgore> oh no more people to help ;)
[04:35] <Toma-> carbo: you might want to change the options in fstab
[04:35] <gen> i'll be back
[04:35] <wietse> ok
[04:35] <Frogzoo> Killgore: I mean like http://vde.sourceforge.net/
[04:35] <remote> anyone in here a perl expert?
[04:35] <carbo> Toma-: okay I'll look into it... first have to find fstab :x
[04:35] <Frogzoo> Kritical: http://vde.sourceforge.net/ 'Virtual Distributed Ethernet'
[04:35] <gen> brb
[04:35] <Toma-> !fstab
[04:35] <ubotu> the /etc/fstab  file lists all drives and partitions but can be easily configured automatically with the diskmounter file found here http://www.ubuntulinux.nl/files/diskmounter  See <partitions>.
[04:36] <dockane> remote, i know how to use cpan ;)
[04:36] <oskude> caglar, "dragbox" could be usefull http://www.student.lu.se/~cif04usv/Apps.html
[04:36] <remote> dockane, what is cpan?
[04:36] <oskude> caglar, the developer is sometimes here :)
[04:37] <caglar> cool, thanks oskude
[04:37] <dockane> remote, http://www.cpan.org/
[04:37] <oskude> caglar, the deb works on breezy
[04:37] <Killgore> Frogzoo: i can do the same things with SSH
[04:38] <lafferpt> on the configuration of ddclient for DynDns what do I put under: Interface used for dynamic DNS service?
[04:38] <arrick> Frogzoo, you think I might have a driver problem here?
[04:38] <gert>  irc.freenode.org
[04:39] <oskude> caglar, piping stdout from program to dragbox would be like "ps | dragbox"
[04:39] <Killgore> how did i find nubuntu? did some one post a link in here?
[04:40] <oskude> caglar, then if you click the text in dragbox, its in gnomes clipboard, or you can drag and drop it (and to it)
[04:41] <Kritical> Frogzoo: Wow.. looks like what I need.. looks a little under-developed however if it works it could make life a lot easier, thanks heaps!
[04:42] <carbo> okay after i change /etc/fstab do i have to restart or what
[04:43] <gnomefreak> carbo: im thinking restarting would be good idea
[04:43] <lafferpt> on the configuration of ddclient for DynDns what do I put under: Interface used for dynamic DNS service?
[04:43] <carbo> gnomefreak: alright thanks

[04:53] <rambo3> :S
[04:54] <rambo3> why are you mounting on dektop?
[04:54] <oskude> ecen, i think that could be (hd2), if hd0 = hda, hd1 = hdb, hd2 = hdc...
[04:55] <oskude> ecen, but you will get the bootloader after reboot where bios is pointing, mostly hd0...
[04:55] <rambo3> hd2,0

[04:56] <Killgore> yes
[04:57] <oskude> my pcs are ~5 years old, and they can only ide 1 master...
[04:57] <Killgore> in fact its easier in newer bios's (these days)
[04:57] <Killgore> yer my bios is crap
[04:57] <Frogzoo> Zeias: just state your problem & someone will help if they can

[05:02] <bajek> in 5.10 this file was /etc/locale.gen but in 6.04 i haven;t this file
[05:02] <Kamping_Kaiser> Tiberian: :D
[05:03] <patrick52222> can some look at this for http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/10914 and tell what the problem might be
[05:03] <Tiberian> Kamping_Kaiser, ? :)
[05:03] <Killgore> lates all
[05:03] <_jason> Tiberian: right click on the panel, add to panel, window list.  try that
[05:03] <Kamping_Kaiser> Tiberian: check you have the windowlist installed
[05:03] <niki> how do i change the behavior of my title bars, so when i double click them, they shade, instead of maximizing?
[05:03] <patrick52222> can someone look at this for me as im having problems http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/10914 and tell what the problem might be
[05:03] <sorush21> can I install xp to an extended partition?

[05:03] <Tiberian> Kamping_Kaiser & _jason thanks a bunch :*
[05:04] <niki> _jason, that would be it, thx :)
[05:04] <sorush21> patrick52222: try sudo apt-get -f install
[05:04] <Frogzoo> sorush21: yes
[05:04] <Frogzoo> sorush21: just be sure you enable LBA in the bios
[05:05] <sorush21> Frogzoo: and then i have to get the grub fixed up using the live cd right?
[05:05] <patrick52222> sudo apt-get -f install and this istalls amsn right
[05:05] <Frogzoo> sorush21: yup
[05:05] <dark26435> when i start Totem, I get an error that says it can not startup because a resourse busy or not availible
[05:05] <Kamping_Kaiser> dark26435: what device?
[05:05] <sorush21> patrick52222: that will try to fix apt-get ... no install any thing.. -f means fix
[05:05] <Kamping_Kaiser> *resource
[05:06] <Kamping_Kaiser> sorush21: it installs what it needs to match your package selections
[05:06] <dark26435> video device?
[05:06] <sorush21> Frogzoo: are you talking about my bios on my Motherboard, I have been there but there is no signs of my partitions.. do you mean the HDD it self?
[05:07] <patrick52222> sorush21: does nt do anything
[05:07] <Frogzoo> dark26435: me thinks you need: system -> prefs -> multimedia selector -> video - try either SDL or Xwindows (No xv)
[05:08] <sorush21> patrick52222: I would recommend that you use kopete.. rather than amsn.. you can have video chat and voice chat in kopete , it also fully supports yahoo..
[05:08] <sorush21> patrick52222: but where is this package comming form..

[05:12] <sfar-ubu> Frogzoo, i bet if you wait the question will come right at you
[05:13] <Heroin> I currently have WindowsXP(sp1) installed on D:\, and i want to install Ubuntu5.04 to C:\, however C:\ is 33GB and i want it to become 15GB and then add another 10GB to D:\, and create a filesharing partition with fat32 of 5GB... now what is the best way to do this?
[05:13] <Heroin> (C:\ and D:\ are all 1 Harddrive just partitions)
[05:14] <Newbieee> Heloo Who can help me to set up my wireless...From tutorials I barely Understand
[05:14] <patrick52222> how good is the kubuntu to the one i have already got
[05:14] <orangehaw> Heroin: what have you tried thus far
[05:14] <Frogzoo> Heroin: use the live cd to run gparted & shrink the first partition etc
[05:15] <Heroin> Kubuntu is a difrent GUI.. its a but more further ahead of Gnome which is standert on ubuntu
[05:15] <Rdde> What dose this mean? rdde@Filserver:/media# chgrp rdde SATA1/
[05:15] <Rdde> chgrp: changing group of `SATA1/': Read-only file system
[05:15] <Heroin> Frogzoo, i cant do it during my debian install?
[05:15] <patrick52222> ok thanks
[05:15] <Frogzoo> Heroin: just be sure to get the data off c: before you install ubuntu to it
[05:15] <Heroin> i mean during ubuntu install
[05:15] <Heroin> yes :) i backed it up
[05:15] <tristanmike> Heroin: if you don't want to reinstall everything from scratch, the best would be using something like Partition Magic to resize the XP drive(remember to back up your data)
[05:15] <Heroin> i have partition magic aswell
[05:15] <jenda> Is there a way to greate my own context hightlighting mode in gedit?
[05:16] <Newbieee> Heloo Who can help me to set up my wireless...From tutorials I barely Understand

[05:16] <Heroin> Newbieee spamming is not the answer... just wait for some one to help
[05:16] <niki> Newbieee, is it on a pc or laptop?
[05:16] <c0llin> how would i get ndiswrapper?
[05:16] <Newbieee> Laptop
[05:16] <Frogzoo> Heroin: just resize the partition from the installer, you can create the additional partition under xp later

[06:11] <pasman> How do I change the status of a installed service (e.g apache2) to not be be started at boot, to only be started when I want to (e.g by using apache2ctl) ?
[06:11] <Blippe> jager, yes and in synaptic (that is the thing you get when you choose advanced in the add/remove thingie)
[06:11] <nook> I want to build wine from sources, but it takes a lot of free space on drive. On my linux partition I have only 1GB space, and it's way to little. Can I download sources and build it on say /media/hda5 ? Can I delete these files after I run dpkg -i wine.deb or they'll be required to running wine?
[06:11] <Blippe> pasman, i am not sure, but i think apache is started with inet check in your /etc/ folder
[06:12] <oskude> jager, yup, synaptic or apt-get from terminal
[06:12] <Blippe> nook, yes on all accounts. you can remove them
[06:12] <remote> what is the room for dapper chat?
[06:12] <jenda> Blippe: way too complicated for me :)
[06:12] <remote> gnomefreak, do you know the room for Dapper chat?
[06:12] <pasman> Blippe: There is nor GUI to use to enable a service at boot or not ?
[06:12] <Frogzoo> #ubuntu+1
[06:12] <gnomefreak> #ubuntu+1 remote
[06:12] <Blippe> nook, you could try to run "apt-get clean" too!
[06:13] <remote> gnomefreak, thanks mate
[06:13] <nook> Blipe: after I download sources they takes about 900MB of free space. What do You think, how much space do I need to compile it?
[06:13] <gnomefreak> yw remote
[06:13] <jager> well how does the apt-get work?
[06:14] <Blippe> nook, youe looked in system -administration - services?
[06:14] <jager> i tried it some but didnt really work out the way i wanted it to
[06:14] <gnomefreak> ubotu tell jager about apt
[06:14] <nook> Blippe: no, what's that?
[06:14] <Blippe> jager, it downloads prepackaged programs and libraries from the ubuntu servers!
[06:14] <nook> Blippe: I have. Only needed stuff.
[06:15] <jager> blippe: but not all software will be there..?
[06:15] <Blippe> nook, apache aint in there?
[06:15] <oskude> jager, "apt-cache search blah" would search for packages or programs or descriptions you can install, like "apt-cache search text editor" "apt-cache search nano"
[06:15] <nook> Blippe: I use apache. So..?
[06:15] <Blippe> nook, my apache is in there!
[06:15] <jager> oskude: alrite
[06:15] <nook> Blippe: I didn't take your apache
[06:16] <flavia> hello! what is the name of a good cd burning program? I tryed Graveman, K3B and Gnomebake but they all seems to need the su privilge to work
[06:16] <oskude> jager, "apt-get install nano" would install a package named "nano" (you need "sudo" in front of that command)
[06:16] <Blippe> nook, it is for services that is active, uncheck apache and it is unactive, but still installed on your system!
[06:16] <oskude> jager, "apt-cache show nano" would show more information about the package named "nano"
[06:16] <nook> Blippe: I do use apache.
[06:16] <Heroin> how long does it take for a new ubuntu 5.04 to update itself.. its taking forever :|
[06:17] <nook> nook: I haven't mentiont about apache. I have just asked how many free space does it take to compile about 900MB sources.
[06:17] <Heroin> nano is crap vi for me :P
[06:17] <Blippe> nook, good for you. didn't you want it to not run at boot?
[06:17] <Dr_Willis> vi owns You. :P
[06:17] <Heroin> yes it does :P i dont like nano
[06:17] <nook> Blippe: apache isn't the point. Whatever.
[06:17] <oskude> jager, and "synaptic" is (more or less) a graphical front end to apt-get
[06:17] <Heroin> apache isnt 900MB!
[06:18] <Heroin> my webserver with everything on it (debian net install) is 700mb
[06:18] <Blippe> Heroin, sorry nook, mmixed you with someone else, sorry...
[06:18] <graveson> does anyone have experience with a maxtor RAID 0 device
[06:18] <Heroin> incl apache + modules + mysql + proftpd + mailserv
[06:18] <nook> Blippe: np
[06:18] <oskude> jager, and theres allso "aptitude" that has a text mode "gui", and allso command line like "sudo aptitude install nano"
[06:19] <oskude> jager, but im used to "apt-get", so thats what i use first...
[06:19] <jager> oskude: how long have you been using linux?
[06:19] <Dr_Willis> ive heard that 'aptitude install ....' is better in many ways then 'apt-get install' (not sure why however)
[06:19] <oskude> jager, as main os, 4 years or so...
[06:20] <jager> oskude: it seems so.... clean in a way
[06:20] <Blippe> jenda, don't try to create a new one, look up the ones you've got, copy one of them (preferably the smallest one) and edit it to your liking
[06:20] <Heroin> aptitude tracks what u installed and stuff
[06:20] <jenda> Blippe: OK... i'll try that.
[06:20] <Dr_Willis> Heroin,  yea - somthing like that
[06:21] <Heroin> its apt-get but then wanne b more advanced IMHO, iam not the most exp. linux user
[06:21] <jager> oskude: i got about 2-3 months before i start in a job where im gonna use this daily also program in ruby on rails
[06:21] <Blippe> Dr_Willis, aptitude allows you to remove metapackages dependencies too, like to remove all of kde if you installed it with aptitude and then tried to remove it with aptitude
[06:21] <jager> oskude you know ruby?
[06:21] <Tiberian> !kpackage
[06:21] <ubotu> Tiberian: Huh? Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[06:21] <Tiberian> Huh uh? bah!
[06:21] <oskude> jager, know, but havent learned it (yet)
[06:21] <Tiberian> >.<
[06:22] <jager> oskude alrite well it aint that hard really, ruby at least
[06:22] <jager> dunno about rails though
[06:22] <jenda> Blippe: But I need a little explaining. It seems to me that it has nothing to do with gedit, right? What is gtksourceview?
[06:22] <arrick> how do I search for a file in ubuntu?
[06:23] <jager> synaptic was a great help seems like i can find what i need now, thanks guys ;)
[06:23] <Frogzoo> arrick: locate filename

[06:27] <Frogzoo> arrick: wget URL
[06:27] <arrick> thanks
[06:28] <Dr_Willis> arrick,  wget, or curl are commands for that.
[06:28] <Frogzoo> arrick: probly need to install wget though
[06:29] <oskude> arrick, "locate" searches in a database, so if you database is not uptodate (will be made daily) do "sudo updatedb"
[06:29] <matt_> is there somebody who wants to help me routing internet through Ubuntu (2 network cards, 1 connected to the internet, other needs to be connected to the internet)
[06:30] <void^> use firestarter
[06:31] <Dr_Willis> matt_,   i think firestarter makes that a few clicks and its done..
[06:32] <matt_> oke
[06:32] <Dr_Willis> matt_,  you may want to read the ip masquerading howto also.
[06:32] <matt_> there isn't a way to do it without additional programs?
[06:32] <Dr_Willis> matt_,  read the ip masquerading howto.  :)
[06:33] <matt_> oke :) tnx Dr_Willis
[06:33] <Dr_Willis> its a simple thing with 'lots' of details.
[06:33] <Dr_Willis> ubuntu wiki/forums may have some guides also

[06:34] <jenda> Blippe: Could you please point me the right way? I'm not sure what it is you linked me to. I don't know what gtksourceview is (I know what gtk is), and I don't know where to find the one file I want to overwrite to suit my needs.
[06:35] <mouldy> harm_ check out linux-gamers.org
[06:35] <mouldy> itay: I'm not entirely sure, but you need to install a 32 bit browser
[06:35] <arrick> what is wrong with this picture?
[06:35] <mouldy> what picture?
[06:36] <jenda> Blippe: Actually, I just got it - but, where do I find gedit's language defining files?
[06:36] <arrick> 'mv ./x125-drv-0.2.3.tar.gz ./prndriver/x125-drv-0.2.3.tar.gz' ?
[06:36] <mouldy> hey all, how do i change the image that ubuntu logo next to the applications menu?
[06:36] <arrick> what is wrong with this picture?
[06:36] <arrick> 'mv ./x125-drv-0.2.3.tar.gz ./prndriver/x125-drv-0.2.3.tar.gz' ?

[06:37] <harm_> thank you mouldy looks good
[06:37] <mouldy> harm_: no prob =)
[06:37] <itay> moudly: I figured it out but whern I type "sudo apt-get install ia32-libs ia32-libs-gtk linux 32" i get "E: couldnot find package linux32
[06:37] <Blippe> jenda, i don't know, search for xml and gedit on your computer!
[06:37] <arrick> itay, try using synaptic
[06:38] <Blippe> and don't overwrite the old ones...
[06:38] <mouldy> itay: Sorry I'm not more use to you, I have a 64bit CPU but installed 32bit linux to save the hassle
[06:38] <mouldy> arrick: are you talking to me?
[06:38] <arrick> mouldy, nope
[06:38] <itay> arrick: sorry about the dum question, but what is synaptic? Very new to Linux....
[06:39] <arrick> do you haev gnome?
[06:39] <arrick> itay, do you have gnome installed?
[06:39] <Dr_Willis> synaptic is a front end to apt-get
[06:39] <mouldy> arrick: ok, soryr, getting muddled up a bit :p
[06:39] <itay> moudly: will it run ok? 32 bit installation I mean?
[06:39] <mouldy> yeah
[06:39] <itay> arrick: yea, I have it
[06:39] <mouldy> works 100% fine here
[06:40] <arrick> to get to synaptic, go to system>admin>synaptic
[06:40] <arrick> then look for the file
[06:41] <thenetduck> join /#ubuntu-utah
[06:41] <itay> arrick: you mean "linux32" right?
[06:41] <arrick> yeah
[06:42] <itay> found it. but what should i do now?
[06:42] <arrick> Mark for istall
[06:42] <arrick> by right clicking
[06:42] <arrick> !synaptic
[06:42] <ubotu> synaptic is probably https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SynapticHowto
[06:43] <kenas> how can i access as a root user ?
[06:43] <arrick> you dont wnat too
[06:43] <jenda> Blippe OK...
[06:43] <itay> where do i type !synaptic
[06:44] <Dr_Willis> !root
[06:44] <ubotu> By default, the root password is locked in Ubuntu. Look at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/RootSudo for all information.
[06:44] <arrick> thats a tutorial right below that , that you can use to help you with synaptic
[06:44] <arrick> !synaptic
[06:44] <ubotu> synaptic is probably https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SynapticHowto
[06:44] <arrick> go to that page, and read up on it
[06:45] <arrick> I foudn it worthwhile for me last noght
[06:45] <itay> ok, thank u very much :)
[06:45] <arrick> np:
[06:46] <arrick> I'm currently in terminal at Desktop/prndriver directory, how do I return to Desktop dir?
[06:46] <arrick> I know to use cd
[06:46] <arrick> but where to from there
[06:46] <oskude> arrick, cd ..
[06:47] <arrick> thanks
[06:47] <arrick> I forgot
[06:47] <oskude> "cd" brings you home, "cd .." one directory up, "cd -" to the directory you where before the last cd command
[06:49] <arrick> if a file is listed under '*@linux:~$' How do I move it to '/Desktop/prndriver' ?
[06:50] <arrick> never mind, I had a typo
[06:52] <oskude> arrick, that "$" in your prompt means its your home, you can access home with "~" or is mostly at "/home/yourusername", so "cp ~/myfile ./newpath/" would be same as "cp /home/myusername/myfile ./newpath/"
[06:52] <arrick> how to unzip 'X125-drv-0.2.3.tar.gz

[07:13] <kling0n> i have a question regarding dpkg-buildpackage
[07:13] <arrick> oskude, I downloaded it agina dn it still syas the same thing
[07:13] <XVampireX> Uhm, weird... the desktop isn't centered even though it's running at optimal resolution
[07:13] <arrick> xvampire, neither is mine
[07:14] <kling0n> i get this error trying to build a package
[07:14] <kling0n> checking for C compiler default output file name... configure: error: C compiler cannot create executables
[07:14] <mark_> I have two desktops and a laptop
[07:14] <kling0n> does not occur when building as root
[07:14] <mark_> and I would like to sync my tomboy notes between them
[07:14] <XVampireX> arrick: How come? Is it supposed to be like that?
[07:14] <arrick> mine is too big for the screen at 600X800

[07:15] <XVampireX> Can I center the desktop somehow?
[07:15] <tamale> can VLC or M player open files on a network?    Server aborting." when trying to start xorg on a radeon xpress 200m ?
[07:17] <kling0n> theres a difference between accessing smb shares and mounting them
[07:17] <arrick> Klingon, what do the uss enterprize and toilet paper haev in common?
[07:17] <tamale> i wouldn't be able to see the windows folders already without it, correct?
[07:17] <tamale> OH!
[07:17] <tamale> I gotcha
[07:17] <tamale> mounting them will let me access them starting with  /  instead of   smb:///blah blah blah
[07:17] <tamale> right?
[07:17] <niki> valberg, did you try reconfigurinjg?
[07:17] <kling0n> still, any debian package maintainers online?
[07:18] <kling0n> 'tis an annoying issue
[07:18] <kling0n> aww heck... ill build it as root in stead
[07:18] <kling0n> :)
[07:18] <valberg_> niki: aye i tried alot... but a strange thing is that when i change the driver into vesa it just says "no screens found"
[07:18] <tamale> klingon, is that correct ?
[07:18] <linuxshop> does any one know how to change the 404 page in apache?? please i dont ppl seeing what port my server is running
[07:18] <arrick> Sorry kling0n
[07:19] <straylite> linuxshop: yeah: ErrorDocument 404 /file.html
[07:19] <niki> valberg, dunno, sorry...reconfiguring was all i could think of...i just saw you repeating yourself and thought i'd throw it out there :P
[07:19] <tamale> also, how can I tell what driver my video card is currently using ?
[07:19] <valberg_> niki: heh heh okey then ;) thnx anyway
[07:19] <niki> valberg, np :)
[07:19] <pokerface> thanks straylite but what would the directory be /var or /etc or ???
[07:19] <arrick> !fileroller
[07:19] <ubotu> Did you get hit by a windmill? Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, arrick
[07:20] <jackie> Hello people! A friend om mine runs warty.. Can he just upgrade to hoary? I.e can I give him a new sources.list?
[07:20] <XVampireX> Hello?
[07:20] <arrick> yeha
[07:20] <harm_> jackie yes
[07:20] <harm_> iam doing the same thing right now
[07:20] <kling0n> tamale,  yes
[07:20] <niki> hello!
[07:20] <XVampireX> Can anyone tell me how to center the desktop because it goes slightly to the right?
[07:20] <jackie> harm_ like this one? http://ubuntuguide.org/#extrarepositories
[07:20] <harm_> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BreezyUpgrade
[07:20] <harm_> iam using that one jackie
[07:20] <niki> XVampireX, use your monitor buttons?
[07:20] <tamale> Vampire, are you sure it's not your monitor ?
[07:21] <harm_> iam upgrading via Apt-Get
[07:21] <XVampireX> Other than the monitor buttons? :P
[07:21] <tamale> well, do the monitor buttons fix the problem?
[07:21] <XVampireX> Cause I use this resolution on windows and it works fine
[07:21] <tamale> it could be a differen tmode
[07:22] <XVampireX> I can do it, but I wanna see if I can do it through some program in this distro
[07:22] <tamale> different refresh rates even on the same resolution will make your monitor forget its programming
[07:22] <kling0n> XVampireX, xvidtune
[07:22] <niki> XVampireX, i don't think you can....you'll probably have to use the monitor buttons
[07:22] <niki> god forbid...lol
[07:22] <XVampireX> Oh, alright, thanks anyways
[07:22] <tamale> no, it's a good question
[07:22] <arrick> if he changes it with the monitor buttons, he'll have to change it for windows when he boots there
[07:22] <kling0n> XVampireX, use xvidtune
[07:22] <tamale> took me a while to figure that out
[07:22] <arrick> XVampireX, hang on
[07:22] <kling0n> XVampireX, it will let yo udo it
[07:22] <abre> are nfs shares significantly better than samba
[07:22] <ScreaminIke> lets say that i have a folder filled with files titled "Blah_Blah_blah_<whatever>.mp3" and i just want them to be named "<whatever>.mp3"
[07:22] <ScreaminIke> how do i do that?
[07:22] <tamale> aaric, no, it will save settings for each 'mode' most likely
[07:23] <niki> XVampireX, oh...didn't realize you were dual booting :P
[07:23] <pokerface> thanks straylite but what would the directory be /var or /etc or ???
[07:23] <jackie> har
[07:23] <CrazyDoode> hi, could someone please give me the kernel version of Ubuntu current.
[07:23] <kling0n> abre, some would say that you get better performance, but nfs i vulnerable to connection los
[07:23] <XVampireX> niki: Live CD
[07:23] <jackie> harm_ ok! I'l try! thnx
[07:23] <kling0n> loss
[07:23] <arrick> XVampireX, I was given a lnk for screen resolution last night, can remember what it was though
[07:23] <arrick> !screen resolution
[07:23] <ubotu> arrick: What? Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[07:23] <XVampireX> I will be doing clean install when I'm done with windows tasks
[07:23] <niki> XVampireX, ah
[07:23] <arrick> !screen
[07:23] <ubotu> hmm... screen is a terminal multiplexer http://www.kuro5hin.org/story/2004/3/9/16838/14935 and http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GNU_Screen AND http://www.macworld.com/weblogs/macgems/
[07:23] <niki> lol
[07:24] <arrick> !display
[07:24] <ubotu> hmm... display is http://www.ubuntulinux.org/wiki/FixVideoResolutionHowto or ask !Resolution
[07:24] <arrick> there you go
[07:24] <arrick> check that out
[07:24] <PseudoPlacebo> Yay! I have photoshop again! Yaaaaay!
[07:24] <tamale> i still say he doesn't need to go through all that trouble.. most CRT's remember settings for many different resolution / refresh rate combinations
[07:24] <arrick> XVampireX, follow my last link
[07:24] <kling0n> ScreaminIke, "for i in `ls *.mp3`; do name=`echo $i | sed -r 's/Blah_blah_blah//g'`;mv "$i" "$name";done
[07:24] <tamale> most likely his windows and linux refresh rates are just different
[07:25] <XVampireX> thanks
[07:25] <arrick> tomale, not according to those pages
[07:25] <arrick> ok
[07:25] <tamale> those pages are talking about software changes
[07:25] <tamale> i'm talking about the monitor's built-in memory
[07:25] <abre> kling0n, how better is the performance
[07:26] <kling0n> abre,  no clue.. i use samba/CIFS
[07:26] <imc_> Xorg hell with new Breezy install: Insufficient memory for mode. It seems to be trying lots of high res settings I specifically deactivated in the config. Any help?
[07:26] <ScreaminIke> klingon, is that bash?
[07:26] <abre> kling0n, fair enough
[07:27] <sfar-ubu> how to search in terminal for packets that are installed?
[07:27] <tamale> does anyone know how I can tell what driver is currently being used for my video card?
[07:27] <pokerface> how am i suppose to find the 404 page for apache
[07:27] <imc_> I have an ATI radeon 200, and it was working under Dapper ....
[07:27] <elijah> hi all..im a newbie:)
[07:28] <imc_> pokerface what are you asking?
[07:28] <tamale> pokerface:  have you looked at the doc pages for apache yet?  I think it's pretty well documents
[07:28] <tamale> *documented
[07:28] <kling0n> ScreaminIke, yes... bash and sed
[07:28] <pokerface> i did but i cant find how to change the 404 error page
[07:28] <kling0n> ScreaminIke, for csh, use "foreach i (`ls *,mp3`)
[07:28] <pokerface> i dont want others to know im running apache
[07:28] <imc_> .htaccess specify it there
[07:28] <imc_> pokerface
[07:28] <imc_> or in the apache config....
[07:28] <tamale> you probably don't have hidden folders turned on
[07:28] <pokerface> looked
[07:29] <tamale> .htaccess is a hidden folder
[07:29] <kling0n> .htaccess is a file :)
[07:29] <tamale> hidden file  ;)
[07:29] <kling0n> yup
[07:29] <tamale> hehe
[07:29] <tamale> my bad.
[07:29] <elijah> no one said hi to me:(
[07:29] <pokerface> hhow do u turn on hidden file?
[07:29] <kling0n> until the l33t uz3r discovers ls -al
[07:29] <tamale> well, ls -a  will show it
[07:29] <tamale> (a for 'all' )
[07:29] <azurehuesofblue> I have a GeForce 5500 video card with dual head display, I can't config the xorg.config right... I've tried SO HARD... anyone know anything?
[07:29] <imc_> elijah, Hi. What can we do for you
[07:30] <tamale> haha azure, I'm wrestling with that myself... I wish I knew how to help you
[07:30] <tamale> ubuntu seriously needs a simple dual display manager like windows'
[07:30] <azurehuesofblue> tamale yeah, we talked yesterday... it's frickin impossible lol... I'll be so happy when I get it.
[07:31] <XVampireX> How do I open up the console?
[07:31] <pokerface> htaccess isnt what i want thoug! or i think it isnt
[07:31] <imc_> pokerface, try the apache chat room
[07:31] <pokerface> where that at?
[07:32] <niki> pokerface, /j #apache
[07:32] <XVampireX> nevermind my question
[07:32] <pokerface> ty
[07:33] <kling0n> tamale and azure: there is a setting in the settings manager for dual displays
[07:33] <tamale> 'settings manager'  ?
[07:33] <kling0n> dont use udal-head myself atm though
[07:33] <imc_> Okay xorg conf hell: doing sudo dpkg-reconfigure sxerver-xorg under breezy I set everything right, but still getting twazz-outs every time I start x, with tons of monitor resolutions being tried and failing despite configuration.
[07:33] <kling0n> are you using ubuntu or kubuntu?
[07:33] <imc_> ubuntu
[07:33] <tamale> ubuntu
[07:33] <kling0n> bleh.. are you using kde?
[07:33] <azurehuesofblue> me too
[07:33] <kling0n> hmm try installling the kde-desktop package
[07:33] <tamale> ubuntu is gnome, no ?
[07:33] <imc_> Sorr, kling0n, thought you meant me ;)
[07:34] <kling0n> ive never worked with gnome
[07:34] <kling0n> but the kde package has a nice settings manager
[07:34] <tamale> imc_: you're having the same problem as my bro... he's got SLI'd 6600 gt's and can't get a screen to come up in X
[07:34] <kling0n> but you should be able to hack it into place in the xorg.conf
[07:34] <[Ag0ny] > can anyone help me with getting recognition of an unknown device?
[07:34] <[FR33_B33R] > !beer
[07:35] <green_earz> azurehuesofblue: have a look at > http://kmuto.jp/debian/hcl/index.cgi    you should be able to find out what the module name for your video card there, it may be of some use
[07:35] <tamale> the problem is my two monitors have different resolutions
[07:35] <kling0n> or just check this: http://www.wahlau.org/ubuntu_hoary_thinkpad_t43_and_xorg_dual_head_display
[07:35] <azurehuesofblue> green_earz... OK.
[07:35] <[FR33_B33R] > hey... heres my problem... both ROSEGARDEN and HYDROGEN cant locate my ALSA sequencer
[07:35] <spy5> supppp all
[07:35] <kling0n> always better to do xorgs mods yourself
[07:35] <green_earz> azurehuesofblue: just in case it the wrong module thats being install ?
[07:36] <azurehuesofblue> Kling0n ok, I will I don't mind installing kde
[07:36] <kling0n> [FR33_B33R] , log output?
[07:36] <elijah> hey when will ubuntu dapper release plz say? in april or after that?
[07:36] <jackie> harm_ Hi.. uhmm I replaced the sources.list.. can I just ran apt-get update && dist-upgrade..
[07:36] <trappist> green_earz: holy crap that's a great link
[07:36] <green_earz> thanks
[07:36] <kling0n> elijah, you can use the release candidate
[07:36] <[FR33_B33R] > kling0n, [ERROR]      AlsaMidiDriver      Error opening ALSA sequencer
[07:36] <[FR33_B33R] > [ERROR]      AlsaAudioDriver     Can't set realtime scheduling for ALSA Driver
[07:36] <spy5> allo
[07:36] <tamale> kling0n:  modifying the xorg.conf file is a real pain if you've never done it before though.. it's like learning an entirely new programming language
[07:37] <tamale> it's inexcusable to be asked to learn how to program something like that just to get something like dual monitors working  ;)
[07:37] <green_earz> trappist: its handy to for getting the module names for the pci cards
[07:37] <kling0n> remember to backup, kill the kdm and use startx to check if it works
[07:37] <matt_> are there updates for Ubuntu, just like windows-update for windows?
[07:37] <kling0n> or just use the nice, kde-.provided dual head manager :)
[07:38] <tamale> i'll give that a shot.  do you know if it offers different resolutions for each display?
[07:38] <[FR33_B33R] > how do i restart ALSA?
[07:38] <kling0n> matt_,  yes.. only lots easier and its not supposed to break every week or so
[07:38] <torque> #freenode-antisocial
[07:38] <matt_> kling0n, how can I update my Ubuntu? :)
[07:38] <kling0n> [FR33_B33R] , /etc/init.d/alsa-utils restart
[07:38] <kling0n> matt use adept
[07:39] <tamale> also, sorry if i missed an initial response, but I still don't know how to get info about my current video drivers that are being used
[07:39] <tamale> if anyone knows how to do that i'd sure like to know  :)
[07:39] <Dr_Willis> tamale,  check the xorg.conf file and see what its using.
[07:39] <Dr_Willis> tamale,  what card ya got?
[07:39] <tamale> just says "nvidia"
[07:39] <matt_> kling0n, when I say 'adept' in the shell, it says 'command not found' ?
[07:39] <mark__> is there anywhere I can get the essential codecs in .deb form?
[07:40] <chrisn`> mark__, sudo apt-get install w32codecs
[07:40] <tamale> on my desktop, a 7800 GT.   i'm positive it's using the current drivers though.   on my laptop, i have a dedicated 5200 GO, but I don't think it's accelerated yet  (the lcd looks like it's not scanning at the most appropriate refresh rate)
[07:40] <Dr_Willis> tamale,  you are using the nvidia drivers then. :P
[07:40] <mark_> chrisn`, ?
[07:40] <kling0n> tamale check Xorg.0.log
[07:40] <kling0n> /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[07:40] <mark__> did that one and still no luck with movie streams from websites
[07:40] <Dr_Willis> tamale,  a lcd is at 60mhz pretty much.. it cant   do anything more/less (i think)
[07:41] <chrisn`> Not sure about .deb file, but apt-get works fine. (Or synaptic. Whichever you're comfortable with)
[07:41] <mark_> oh, help, someone else using the same nick
[07:41] <mark__> lol
[07:41] <kling0n> tamale are you using nvidia?
[07:41] <chrisn`> whoops
[07:41] <kling0n> hmm
[07:41] <tamale> Dr. Willis:  That's what I thought, but I assure you the quality of the display is better in windows.. it doesn't "shake" at all, but in ubuntu it's got the faintest hint of lines
[07:41] <looksaus> mark__, better like this...
[07:41] <tamale> (this is on my laptop)
[07:42] <tamale> the resolution is at least matched though
[07:42] <zebragirl> hi
[07:42] <kling0n> tamale,  thats your sycn settings... look up the tech info on your screen
[07:42] <kling0n> sync even
[07:42] <tamale> i could probably get it from windows too, aye?
[07:42] <tamale> hah
[07:42] <kling0n> for correct vertical and horizontal sync settings
[07:42] <kling0n> or use a proper laptop :)
[07:42] <tamale> i'll look more at it later before asking more questions  :)
[07:42] <tamale> it's a great laptop
[07:42] <kling0n> :P
[07:43] <tamale> toshiba satellite pro
[07:43] <zebragirl> i am VERY new to ubuntu and need some help
[07:43] <tamale> i'm amazed how much of my hardware was detected properly right off the bat.. even the brightness control functions
[07:43] <looksaus> zebragirl, just asking your question will do
[07:43] <zebragirl> i am about to install ubuntu and reformat my drive
[07:43] <tamale> I just wish I knew how to get a wireless network manager
[07:43] <zebragirl> should i use LVM?
[07:43] <matt_> kling0n, it worked when I said 'sudo apt-get update' :)
[07:43] <kling0n> tamale, kismet
[07:43] <tamale> clicking on the network icon helps practically none
[07:43] <kling0n> :D
[07:43] <looksaus> zebragirl, for a desktop install?
[07:44] <tamale> kismet  ?
[07:44] <green_earz> tamale: do a google on for your monitors' refresh rate , horivontal and vertical
[07:44] <zebragirl> no, cd
[07:44] <kling0n> or kwifimanagger
[07:44] <kling0n> manager
[07:44] <tamale> sounds like KDE stuff again
[07:44] <tamale> lol
[07:44] <imc_> zebragirl okay just ask the questions and be as specific as possible
[07:44] <kling0n> or better yet, just configure your wireless card
[07:44] <kling0n> are you using WEP or WPA?
[07:44] <tamale> i move around constantly
[07:44] <looksaus> zebragirl, for a home use computer (desktop or laptop)-> you don't need to
[07:44] <tamale> 7+ wireless networks
[07:44] <imc_> Sorry Zebragirl that was in memory and I didn't mean to send it again!
[07:44] <kling0n> wpa_supplicant client configurations is very user-friendly
[07:45] <tamale> is that a gnome package?
[07:45] <kling0n> no
[07:45] <kling0n> i think its in the restricted repository though
[07:45] <tamale> does it save settings for multiple networks?
[07:45] <kling0n> yes
[07:45] <looksaus> your installation is a little simpler if you don't
[07:45] <zebragirl> ok,  im a windows user, but wont be after today so please be patient with my lack of knowlege
[07:45] <tamale> cool, thanks.. i'll give it a look
[07:45] <looksaus> zebragirl, no problem, this channel is here so we can help you
[07:45] <[FR33_B33R] > kling0n, is the sequencer a part of alsa o do i have to obtain it seperately?
[07:45] <kling0n> tamale, its a console tool
[07:46] <tamale> oh
[07:46] <tamale> lol
[07:46] <babo> Hi guys ... what' the equivalent of the otool on the mac ... for a linux box ?
[07:46] <zebragirl> what info do i need to have when i install ubuntu - i am getting rid of windows for good
[07:46] <kling0n> [FR33_B33R] , dont know... its a MIDI sequencer i presume?
[07:46] <tamale> in case you haven't noticed, i'm not a fan of console tools haha
[07:46] <zebragirl> i thought i should use lvm, but you say no, why?
[07:46] <babo> I want to dissect some of my ELF exectuables
[07:46] <kling0n> zebragirl, just get a backup of your files and run the install :)
[07:46] <skilletsteak> Yo guys, a backup utility for Amazon's S3 just came out
[07:46] <looksaus> zebragirl, know what lvm is?
[07:46] <skilletsteak> http://digg.com/software/Backup_your_files_to_Amazon_s_S3_with_S3backup
[07:46] <[FR33_B33R] > kling0n, yes, illl try looking for it on the forums
[07:47] <zebragirl> sort of
[07:47] <zebragirl> souds like it would be good for me to have down the road when i know more aobut partitioning
[07:47] <looksaus> down the road, yes
[07:47] <looksaus> now: no
[07:48] <zebragirl> so i can change it later with or without reinstalling
[07:48] <elijah> i asked when dapper final will release?:(
[07:48] <looksaus> zebragirl, as a new user, I would go for one big partition plus swap
[07:49] <kling0n> elijah, http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/releases?highlight=%28dapper%29
[07:49] <looksaus> don't make things more difficult to start than you have to
[07:49] <kling0n> elijah, learn to use google :)
[07:49] <zebragirl> dumb question, but will my network still work when windows is gone...i saw somewhere on my system that i have a windows network
[07:49] <zebragirl> also, i saw online that i need to nic cards on my gateway?
[07:49] <looksaus> zebragirl, what hardware are you using to connect to the internet?
[07:50] <zebragirl> cable modem
[07:50] <babo> I want to examine some of my ELF binaries ... which tool ... ????
[07:50] <looksaus> wired? wireless?
[07:50] <zebragirl> both
[07:50] <kling0n> babo, what do you want to do with them?
[07:50] <looksaus> what networking hardware in your computer?
[07:50] <looksaus> the wireless might be really difficult to get working
[07:51] <zebragirl> oh, sorry, not sure
[07:51] <zebragirl> how can i find out
[07:51] <kling0n> zebragirl, are you using WEP or WPA on your wireless network?
[07:51] <looksaus> because many vendors refuse to give free software developers enough info on devices they create
[07:51] <azurehuesofblue> Ok, I wrote down every single peice of advice regarding dual head display GeForce 5500, I'll try it ALL and report back!  What's the easiest way to install kde?  and after it is installed I just use the session chooser to use it right?
[07:51] <kling0n> looksaus, but most wireless cards are either prism or atheros chipsets
[07:52] <kling0n> both of which are well supported
[07:52] <nto> s
[07:52] <babo> kling0n: nothing much really ... I'm just reading an interesting article off slashdot about MachO executables and I want to see the ELF format comparison ... so basically view the various parts of the ELF binaries ... header, load, raw segment
[07:52] <looksaus> kling0n, we're trying to find out what hardware she has there, right...
[07:52] <karat> how do you upgrade to a newer kernel
[07:52] <looksaus> zebragirl, are you using a laptop or a desktop?
[07:53] <kling0n> azurehuesofblue, id recommend backing up your /etc/X11/xorg.conf, running /etc/init.d/gdm stop and trying to edit your config and running startx to check
[07:53] <zebragirl> well, i believe it is WEP
[07:53] <kling0n> zebragirl, ok that the encryption standard you're using
[07:53] <kling0n> that is generally pretty well-supported
[07:54] <zebragirl> i'm not very good at finding this stuff in yet
[07:54] <kling0n> 'can you get the HEX key from your wireless router?
[07:54] <azurehuesofblue> Kling0n: yeah, I mean I'm pretty much a n00b, but that's what I've been doing, making backups and trying different things.
[07:54] <graveson> i am really having problems with a maxtor RAID 0 drive .for the 10th time is there anyone that can help me or point me in a direction where i can get help
[07:54] <kling0n> since password conversion can be flaky
[07:54] <looksaus> zebragirl, unfortunately, it's been about eight years since I used windows
[07:54] <kling0n> graveson what problem?
[07:54] <oskude> back, sry i had a important call... forgot who i was helping here...
[07:54] <looksaus> but have a look at Control panel-> network blah
[07:55] <zebragirl> i'm concerned that once i get rid of windows of my systme that somehow my network may not function in ubuntu anymore
[07:55] <looksaus> the wired access should not be a problem
[07:55] <looksaus> but that's what we're trying to find out
[07:55] <kling0n> zebragirl, its called "network connections" if you choose "detailed view" you can see the type of hardware in the "description" field
[07:55] <zebragirl> i have to go to my other system to do that, brb
[07:56] <kling0n> azurehuesofblue, the best way to learn it :)
[07:56] <XVampireX> I know how to tell if KDE or Gnome is better.... Take statistics of all users of KDE and Gnome and compare which desktop enviorment is used more
[07:56] <looksaus> kling0n, isn't there the live CD for her to test these things?
[07:56] <looksaus> XVampireX, :)
[07:56] <zebragirl> i am using linux right now
[07:56] <XVampireX> It won't show what's better but what is used more which is somewhat like what is better
[07:56] <graveson> kling0n: i will  paste the screenshot on pastebin for you.Basically i create a partition on this 600GB drive and it shows up in nautilus places as 2 x600GB .one mountable and the other not.there is als a kb file that i have no idea what that s all about
[07:56] <azurehuesofblue> I'll get it, SOME DAY lol
[07:56] <looksaus> ah, then it's easy
[07:56] <kling0n> babo,you might want to check out bsdiff
[07:56] <looksaus> zebragirl, which version?
[07:57] <zebragirl> so i know it works now, but like i said, somewhere in linux, don't remeber where, it said i had  a windows network
[07:57] <babo> kling0n: thnaks
[07:57] <looksaus> zebragirl, that's something else they're talking about
[07:57] <kling0n> looksaus,  i think so
[07:57] <looksaus> don't worry about that...
[07:58] <zebragirl> oh, sorry, chats wig me a little ADD here
[07:58] <kling0n> graveson, are you using software raid or hardware raid?
[07:58] <kling0n> and do you, in fact have two of these disks?
[07:59] <twirpie> good morning everyone :)
[07:59] <gandm> hi there
[07:59] <M_A_K> I have been going crazy with flash.  I teach a class and some of the e-labs we do are in flash.  I have it working fine on my laptop under ubuntu.  On the workstations in my classroom, I am running the same version of ubuntu.  When I load the e-labs, they are not working properly.  I installed a version of Gentoo linux on one of the workstations and the labs worked fine. I like Ubuntu better and would like to get it working.  What else can a linux newbi
[08:00] <graveson> klingon: it is a RAID 0 drive ,so i do is create a linux lable (82) for the 600GB partition . there is no software RAID configured
[08:00] <graveson> klingon: the screenshots are uploaded
[08:00] <twirpie> i have i tiny question, does ubuntu tell me when it needs to be updated, and when those packs installed on my system need to be upgraded?
[08:01] <M_A_K> twirpie : yes
[08:01] <twirpie> yes for both?
[08:01] <sexcopter8000m> hi, i'm trying to compile a program from source, and i get this during the ./configure process: (just took out the relevant bit) http://ubuntu.pastebin.ca/47186 any ideas?
[08:01] <M_A_K> Yep.
[08:01] <twirpie> sweet! thanks man
[08:01] <harm_> twirpie normally a icon left of your clock shows you about updates
[08:01] <twirpie> yay :)
[08:02] <kling0n> graveson do you have a link?
[08:02] <graveson> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/10923 and http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/10922
[08:02] <pont> Hey, does anyone know of any new PPC debs for compiz ?
[08:03] <zebragirl> also, how the heck do i get the the command line?
[08:03] <twirpie> is there an ubuntu news area that i should keep in check for lastest ubuntu news?
[08:04] <kling0n> graveson, i'd start with a cfdisk check on the disk
[08:04] <kling0n> in stead of all these graphical tools
[08:04] <mds\> anyone here using krfb with an smp kernel?
[08:04] <gandm> has someone an idea about why xmms doesn't play my songs? I've libmad installed and totem works finde with my mp3s, but whenever i add a song to my xmms playlist it just doesn't do anything. no error, no nothing when I hit play.
[08:04] <kling0n> also easier to paste the output :9
[08:04] <looksaus> zebragirl, Ctrl-Alt-F1
[08:04] <zebragirl> thanks
[08:05] <looksaus> (or you can open a graphical terminal from the menu system)
[08:05] <XVampireX> Can I view my videos from this Live CD version?
[08:05] <twirpie> is there an ubuntu news area that i should keep in check for lastest ubuntu news?
[08:05] <XVampireX> on my NTFS windows XP
[08:05] <kling0n> XVampireX, probably
[08:05] <XVampireX> Err, I meant the other way around
[08:05] <kling0n> XVampireX,  do you know which partition if your ntfs partition?
[08:05] <mwe> I dont think the live cd has w32codecs
[08:06] <XVampireX> I know they are partitions C and D
[08:06] <frank23> sexcopter8000m: install libgtk2.0-dev
[08:06] <kling0n> XVampireX, sudo mkdir /mnt/win; sudo mount /dev/hda1 /mnt/win
[08:06] <zebragirl> so, can i just go on and reinstall ubuntu and format w/o lvm? what's the diff btwn lvm and not using it?
[08:06] <[FR33_B33R] > kling0n, i get the same error even with JACK ... i have to clue where to start fixing this sequencer thing
[08:06] <anders_> where is Xserver-6.6.1 located?
[08:06] <kling0n> might be sda1 for a sata drive
[08:06] <kling0n> [FR33_B33R] , im not much into audio sequencing
[08:06] <XVampireX> is that what I'm supposed to type into the console?
[08:07] <oskude> twirpie, http://fridge.ubuntu.com/ :)
[08:07] <kling0n> XVampireX, yup

[08:08] <twirpie> what's the diff btwn lvm partition and not using it?
[08:08] <XVampireX> says: mount: you must specify the filesystem type
[08:08] <sexcopter8000m> thanks frank23!
[08:09] <anders_> how would i get [Xserver-6.6.1]  on my comp?
[08:09] <kling0n> doh.keyboard repeat died...help++
[08:11] <anders_> sooo i have a questioin
[08:12] <[FR33_B33R] > !timidity
[08:12] <ubotu> [FR33_B33R] : I give up. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[08:13] <twirpie> what's the diff btwn lvm partition and not using it?
[08:13] <anders_> how would i get Xserver 6.6.1 on my compter or find where it is
[08:13] <babo> What is the relationship between symbols and libraries ... ? ... what exactly are symbols ? why does a process need them to run ?
[08:14] <rebelguys6> twirpie, lvm provides dynamic resizng of partitions and spanning across multiple drives, for most setups its not needed
[08:14] <twirpie> ohhh ok
[08:14] <twirpie> thanks
[08:14] <anders_> ie. raid
[08:15] <dnh> Can anyone help? Running i386 5.1 live CD  or AMD64 install, I encounter the same problem: after gdm login, a low beep and an empty desktop.
[08:15] <gandm> has someone an idea about why xmms doesn't play my songs? I've libmad installed and totem works finde with my mp3s, but whenever i add a song to my xmms playlist it just doesn't do anything. no error, no nothing when I hit play. If knew more I'd provide you with the infos, but since theres no error msg, it's kind of hard to explain
[08:15] <matt_> is there a firewall built in Ubuntu?
[08:15] <oskude> twirpie, i newer used lvm, so i maybe that im wrong: with lvm you can use more than 1 harddisk as 1 partition...
[08:16] <gandm> no matt
[08:16] <batman> anyone here willing to help me out with ndiswrapper?
[08:16] <martin__> matt_ install FireStarter, that's a good one
[08:16] <gandm> you might want to get firestarter to have a firestarter gui
[08:16] <gandm> firewall-gui
[08:16] <harm_> doesnt ubuntu come with an IP-table?
[08:16] <dnh> I'm new to Ubuntu and not sure where to look for logs/errors. Can anybody tell me why gnome might fail  to initialize on a default install?
[08:17] <matt_> I'm using Ubuntu server, so no gui
[08:17] <anders_> matt what is your desktop?
[08:17] <rebelguys6> dnh, you might want to check /var/log/messages and /var/log/Xorg.0.log if its an X problem
[08:17] <[FR33_B33R] > !alsa
[08:17] <ubotu> from memory, alsa is http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=32063, see also !dmix
[08:18] <matt_> anders_, I don't have a desktop, I'm using Ubuntu server, just a console
[08:18] <tristanmike> dnh: look for error logs in /var/log but to as why gnome failed...did anything fail upon instalation? try 'startx' at a prompt
[08:18] <polpak> matt_, you just need to set the proper iptable rules, and configure those rules to be configured when the system boots (via an init script)
[08:18] <dnh> thx. I'll have a look at the X log. I can start X apps fine from the console, but no gnome stuff or menus show up.
[08:18] <anders_> matt wate wate wate right now and how about when you get home?
[08:18] <batman> will someone please help me out with ndiswrapper?
[08:18] <tristanmike> dnh: does 'startx' bring it up ?
[08:19] <anders_> did you try google batman
[08:19] <dnh> I'll have to check... am reinstalling now.
[08:19] <tristanmike> dnh: or try 'sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop'
[08:19] <batman> anders_ yes
[08:19] <tristanmike> dnh: ok, fair enough :)
[08:19] <rebelguys6> matt_, you may want to look into just a basic firewall using iptables
[08:19] <matt_> polpak, you know a tutorial about how to set iptables?
[08:19] <dnh> Thanks. I'll try just the "ubuntu-desktop" package if still stuck.
[08:19] <martin__> or sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop ;)
[08:20] <dnh> ?
[08:20] <martin__> That is if you want XFCE instead of GNOME as your window manager
[08:20] <anders_> martin it is that easy
[08:20] <batman> it says the driver is present etc.. i did a ndiswrapper -m and do a lsmod and its not showing up in the list
[08:20] <polpak> matt_,  this thead has a script for saving/restoring iptable rules on boot http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=94513&highlight=iptables
[08:20] <matt_> tnx polpak
[08:20] <Induane> On the amd64 version of ubuntu lib3ds-dev is not compiled with -FPIC for some reason, and thus many builds fail that require lib3ds.  How can I reinstall it from apt using the source repository and with -fPIC
[08:21] <tristanmike> dnh: you can install XFCE or Gnome or KDE, by 'sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop' ubuntu-desktop or kubuntu-desktop respectively
[08:21] <davidmoore83> anyone in here from the UK and using DAPPER?
[08:21] <tristanmike> !dapper
[08:21] <ubotu> Dapper Drake will be the next release of Ubuntu - due June 1 (see: http://tinyurl.com/qyrkq). Join channel #ubuntu+1 for discussion :)
[08:21] <polpak> matt_, as for how to set them in the first place.... http://www.linuxgrill.com/anonymous/fire/netfilter/iptables-HOWTO.html
[08:21] <KawikaCornell> hi, i'm in the us using dapper
[08:21] <polpak> !dapper
[08:21] <sfar-ubu> how to search in terminal for packets that are installed?
[08:21] <KawikaCornell> and i have a very important question
[08:21] <KawikaCornell> why does the installer not ask for a root password
[08:21] <tristanmike> davidmoore83: you'd probably have more luck in #ubuntu+1
[08:21] <rebelguys6> here's another good intro matt_ http://www.siliconvalleyccie.com/linux-hn/iptables-intro.htm
[08:22] <polpak> !tell KawikaCornell about root
[08:22] <KawikaCornell> i feel crippled now
[08:22] <polpak> !tell KawikaCornell about dapper
[08:22] <rebelguys6> except its a bit redhat-specific

[08:22] <thegladiator> what id mockup ? (gnome-look.org) , please see this http://www.gnome-look.org/content/show.php?content=31128
[08:22] <twirpie> is there any chance of a linux system becoming rooted?
[08:22] <anders_> KawikaCornell: are you root right now?
[08:22] <thegladiator> I wonder if it possible for me to giev a similar look to my PC
[08:22] <KawikaCornell> nope
[08:22] <babo> What's a symbol exactly ?
[08:22] <tristanmike> twirpie: do you mean from an outside source?
[08:23] <KawikaCornell> i'm going to read about how root is locked automatically
[08:23] <twirpie> i mean rootkit like radmin sql and such

[08:23] <hawaisurf> hi my internet downloading is going extremly slowly anybody knows what is the possible reason? thx
[08:23] <tristanmike> twirpie: I'm not a dev, but I'd have to say no, they won't be able to access anything outside your home folder without the superuser password
[08:24] <KawikaCornell> i'm trying to get WPA to work with ipw2200 as well
[08:24] <tore_> hawaisurf, cable? wireless? pppoe?
[08:24] <twirpie> good stuff :)
[08:24] <hawaisurf> cable 10Mb/s
[08:24] <tristanmike> twirpie: I'd confirm for you're own sake, but I'd personally have to say no
[08:24] <twirpie> k
[08:25] <tore_> do a traceroute, fetch a large iso from a local non-loaded ftp (like ubuntu or something). check when your the only on using the net
[08:25] <rebelguys6> try just blank for the password tore_
[08:25] <thegladiator> what is  mockup ? i was going through gnome-look.org , please see this http://www.gnome-look.org/content/show.php?content=31128  ...is it possible that I get a simillar look ?

[08:25] <hawaisurf> tore: ok..
[08:26] <niki> can someone suggest a good game that i can get from synaptic, besides supertux and tuxracer and xjump?
[08:26] <ortner> Is it hard to change from gnome to kde?
[08:26] <Riddell> ortner: no
[08:26] <Riddell> niki: xbill
[08:27] <rebelguys6> niki, frozen-bubble
[08:27] <oskude> thegladiator, mockup ~= fake
[08:27] <eizesus> why does firefox does not open ASP files? just lets me download them?
[08:27] <ortner> Riddell: just to install it via synaptic?
[08:27] <tore_> frozen-bubble equals COOL
[08:27] <niki> thanks Riddell
[08:27] <niki> rebelguys6, already got that one lol
[08:27] <thegladiator> oskude, that means it can be made to look that way ?
[08:27] <rebelguys6> hehe
[08:27] <tore_> eizesus, its a server problem, not a client problem, i think
[08:27] <thegladiator> wallpaper too is kewl
[08:27] <bajek> what replaced /etc/locale.def in drapper ?
[08:27] <oskude> thegladiator, mockup means, he did that "screenshot" with an image editor...
[08:28] <thegladiator> Ah thank you
[08:28] <eizesus> oh, i just installed a CITRIX ICA client... strange...
[08:28] <CrocoJet> hi all
[08:29] <tore_> hawaisurf, also, check that your running full duplex
[08:29] <CrocoJet> Ihave one NIC "ENL832-TX-ICNT", but when making install .. not recognize ... any idea to solve that ?
[08:29] <tore_> rebelguys6, signs... it worked with no pass
[08:29] <hawaisurf> tore_= aha...how I can check it?
[08:29] <tore_> hawaisurf, i would guess ifconfig
[08:29] <Cyr4x> hi
[08:29] <Riddell> ortner: install kubuntu-desktop
[08:29] <XVampireX> So uhm.... I could never realize how to mount an NTFS partition
[08:30] <hawaisurf> tore_= mm ok..thx
[08:30] <Cyr4x> do you know any software to convert wav to amr?
[08:30] <jenda> I'm having trouble with my gnome-panel. It does unexpected thing without any reason. These are: hide completely without being able to come back out (and if I try to change the orientation top/bottom, it simply snaps back to where it was). i have autohide set to 0 pixels and the timeout for 0 ms. And sometimes it simply hops from bottom to top _without reason_ and I have to drag it back. It happens about... say once a week.
[08:30] <eizesus> bout NTFS, you can not edit files also...
[08:30] <ortner> Riddell: thanks :)
[08:30] <XVampireX> I don't need to edit files
[08:30] <XVampireX> All I need is access so I could at least read
[08:30] <eizesus> jenda: video card...
[08:30] <jenda> It's hidden right now, and the only way to get it back is a kill...
[08:30] <tristanmike> !tell XVampireX about ntfs
[08:30] <eizesus> on which machine?
[08:30] <tore_> XVampireX, start nautilius as root
[08:31] <XVampireX> thanks
[08:31] <jenda> eizesus: what about it? GeForce2, installed properly...
[08:31] <tristanmike> XVampireX: np
[08:31] <XVampireX> tore: am on a live cd boot
[08:31] <eizesus> jenda: strange, same as mine
[08:31] <tristanmike> XVampireX: don't listen to that, no need to start as root, use sudo for everything
[08:31] <tore_> XVampireX, should be under Apps. -> Sys tools
[08:32] <tore_> tristanmike, or start with sudo, either way;)
[08:33] <tristanmike> tore_: it just can be dangerous to advise to start in root, especially for new users, Ubuntu has chosen to "drop" the root thing, so we shouldn't convince users that's the way to go, sorry if I intruded
[08:33] <tore_> no thats true what your saying
[08:33] <tore_> so kinda my bad
[08:33] <tore_> im a freebsd user so im used to go to root
[08:33] <tristanmike> tore_: that's a big question in here "where's my root"
[08:34] <twirpie> ok i think im using the root login at the moment how do i add users, and is it difficult?
[08:34] <tristanmike> twirpie: you shouldn't use root login, use "sudo" for everything
[08:34] <tore-> sudo adduser? or use gui tools included in ubuntu
[08:35] <twirpie> ya i just found that out lol :)
[08:35] <tristanmike> !tell twirpie about rootsudo
[08:35] <twirpie> thanks.

[08:35] <tristanmike> Thralas: try "sudo apt-get install gstreamer0.8-mad"
[08:36] <chomskyrocks> Hi
[08:36] <Thralas> It came with gstreamer I think

[08:36] <biberao> hey

[08:36] <tore-> chomskyrocks, just ask
[08:36] <tristanmike> Thralas: yes, but I don't think -mad, gstreamer has tons of different 'plugins' for lack of a better term
[08:36] <tristanmike> !tell Thralas about restricted
[08:37] <Thralas> You're right. Lets see what it does
[08:37] <chomskyrocks> trying to get Wpa support with my orinoco card
[08:37] <chomskyrocks> having no luck with the wpa supplicant
[08:37] <tristanmike> Thralas: if you haven't already, read up on the pm ubotu just sent you
[08:37] <tore-> chomskyrocks, could check this one: http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=125150&highlight=network+manager
[08:37] <mds\> does anyone know about a documented issue with kde desktop sharing (krfb) and an smp kernel?
[08:37] <[FR33_B33R] > once again... how do i restart alsa?
[08:37] <tristanmike> !wpa
[08:37] <ubotu> wpa is probably enable the universe repository, then "sudo apt-get update", and then "sudo apt-get install wpasupplicant".  See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WPAHowto for more details
[08:37] <Thralas> Yes I noticed
[08:37] <Thralas> And thanks it works fine now
[08:38] <chomskyrocks> will network manager work with older versions of ubuntu

[08:39] <XVampireX> thanks :P
[08:39] <tristanmike> !tell XVampireX about restricted
[08:39] <anders_> how do you find out what version you have?
[08:40] <tristanmike> XVampireX: read up on restricted when you have a chance
[08:40] <tristanmike> anders_: it should be in 'About Ubuntu'
[08:40] <chomskyrocks> and also the wpasupplicant does not seem to support hermes/orinoco, u have to compile the version that comes with the drivers, those dont compile properly
[08:40] <chomskyrocks> get lots of errors

[08:45] <kleinlappies_> hi there
[08:45] <polpak> !itunes
[08:45] <ubotu> itunes is, like, totally, a Mac OS/Windows app, but you can use SharpMusique in Linux instead (sudo apt-get install sharpmusique), and it works for all of the same things with the iTunes music store, libraries, etc.
[08:45] <Karlprof> Thanks, Erez.
[08:46] <tristanmike> anders_: 5.10 is Breezy Ubuntu

[08:54] <abisen> could i just use a global proxy settings that all the applications would transparently use ... and no application would come to know about their existance
