[09:36] <AlexC_> Kazol: yeah you can install it that way, or - go to Admin->System->Synaptic and install it that way
[09:36] <easyease> all codecs you'll ever need, type "restrictedformats" into google and theres a how-to
[09:36] <Crane> then you are running as a user
[09:36] <AlexC_> Crane: that doesn't matter when using sudo
[09:36] <motin> I have got a long list of packages I want to install at once - how can I do this?
[09:36] <htedrom> easyease: yea, i have the codecs
[09:36] <AlexC_> Crane: it will display $ if you're using sudo or not,
[09:36] <Flannel> motin: sudo apt-get install [lots of packages separated by spaces]
[09:36] <htedrom> i can play everything, i just find xine sluggish
[09:37] <AlexC_> it will only display # if you logged in as root
[09:37] <abasinisvacant> AlexC_,  how do i log in as root
[09:37] <AlexC_> abasinisvacant: you don't
[09:37] <iltomee> I need one person, who knows bash scripting, i have one simple question
[09:37] <motin> Flannel: that is one way - but can I do it with Synaptic?
[09:37] <Last_Hero> is there someone here who I can question about Ubuntu in the context of thinking about switching to Ubuntu from XP?
[09:37] <easyease> hmmmm amorak can be pretty sluggish anyway
[09:37] <Flannel> motin: sure, by clicking them all
[09:37] <KoRnKiD> fucking hell
[09:37] <AlexC_> iltomee: Last_Hero: ask away,
[09:37] <abasinisvacant> AlexC_, then wha'ts the point
[09:37] <htedrom> easyease: yea, but i find it's better with gstreamer
[09:37] <Flannel> !ask | Last_Hero
[09:37] <ubotu> Last_Hero: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[09:38] <TheVault> Last_Hero: Iv made the switch, what can I help ya with?
[09:38] <htedrom> htedrom: but since switching to ubuntu, i can't seem to get it to work
[09:38] <AlexC_> abasinisvacant: in what?
[09:38] <StucKman> hi all. which is the best way to configure a printer under dapper?
[09:38] <Crane> abasinisvacant, you can enable root user and log in as root. I don't remember how though
[09:38] <htedrom> htedrom: the only amarok-gstreamer engine deb i found was for breezy
[09:38] <abasinisvacant> AlexC_, in there even being a root user
[09:38] <Crane> a search of the forums should something
[09:38] <Flannel> Crane, abasinisvacant, there's absolutely no reason to enable the root account
[09:38] <easyease> yes last hero, but i reckon you should try dual booting xp andf ubuntu a while first
[09:38] <AlexC_> abasinisvacant: so you can do administrive/root tasks
[09:38] <Crane> why are you needing root?
[09:38] <iltomee> AlexC_: let n be a number, how can i get argument number n in a bash script
[09:38] <iltomee> ?
[09:39] <Stormx2> iltomee: $n
[09:39] <Flannel> abasinisvacant: The root account is disabled in ubuntu, so no, there's no point in being root.
[09:39] <pewee> Last_Hero: http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-2369893842637434537&q=dual+boot will help you :)
[09:39] <AlexC_> abasinisvacant: unlike Windows, we don't stay logged in as 'root'
[09:39] <AlexC_> iltomee: I don't know sorry,
[09:39] <mittwochstheke> hey again.
[09:39] <AlexC_> morning,
[09:39] <motin> Flannel: I was kinda hoping there was a mix. I tried adding " install" after each package on each row, but synaptic wouldnt import it
[09:39] <abasinisvacant> Flannel,  it's disabled? even if i type sudo ... ?
[09:39] <mittwochstheke> is it normal, that most of the software is uninstallable because of dependency-problems?
[09:39] <I-m-new> Its mean whatever i'm upgrading online linux is not resume supported.
[09:39] <iltomee> Stormx2: no becase n is another varibale...
[09:39] <Last_Hero> I play games, less than I used to, but still a couple of hours a day, so, are games playable in Wine / Cedaga or is it similar to emulating a PS2?
[09:39] <Stormx2> mittwochstheke: No. What is the error?
[09:39] <Flannel> abasinisvacant: with sudo, you're not using the root account.
[09:39] <Kazol> should I choose the console version, GTK, or QT if I want a regular GUI?
[09:39] <mittwochstheke> and is there a console-based mplayer available?
[09:39] <iltomee> AlexC_: thx 4 ur time anyways
[09:39] <htedrom> Last_Hero: if you play games that much, i recommend you dual boot
[09:40] <abasinisvacant> flannel, then wha'ts the difference between root and sudo
[09:40] <htedrom> Last_Hero:  wine and cedega really aren't competition for running the games natively
[09:40] <Stormx2> iltomee: Ah. Maybe $$n? It might be like $(echo "$n) or something... ask in #bash
[09:40] <Crane> Last_Hero, I did play CoD in wine
[09:40] <Crane> as well al WoW
[09:40] <theacolyte> abasinisvacant: to use the root account, you can do a sudo passwd root, set a password, then it will let you login
[09:40] <Flannel> abasinisvacant: sudo does a specific action as a superuser.
[09:40] <AlexC_> theacolyte: it's best not to advise people to do that
[09:40] <Kazol> Crane: CoD2 is possible?
[09:40] <easyease> yeah games isnt ubuntus strongest point......deffo dual boot
[09:40] <Flannel> theacolyte, abasinisvacant, there's no reason to enable the root account, please don't recommended it
[09:40] <I-m-new> Flannel: I'm upgrading my Linux Online.
[09:40] <Last_Hero> dang, I don't have the hard disk capacity for a duel boot >_<
[09:40] <iltomee> Stormx2: thx, didnt even know there is a bash channel. lol
[09:40] <Stormx2> abasinisvacant: mplayer is console based...
[09:40] <Crane> I never got it working but I did not try real hard.
[09:40] <Muninn> I have a question about "reparing" a Ubuntu install. I installed Ubuntu a couple of days ago, and when I booted that machine up about an hour ago, I got an error in XServer. I'm asking for help in their room as well, just checking if anyone in here has any suggestions about how to a) get around this or b) fix it.
[09:41] <I-m-new> Please tell me its resume supported?
[09:41] <theacolyte> shrug, I don't see any problem with people being able to use their system the way they want to.
[09:41] <Stormx2> !sudo | abasinisvacant
[09:41] <ubotu> abasinisvacant: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[09:41] <mittwochstheke> Stormx2: i'm trying to install mocp on dapper. libmad0 and libid3tag0 are not installable -> thus moc is not installable.
[09:41] <Crane> I was playing alot of Q4 at that time
[09:41] <abasinisvacant> flannel, is there a reason NOT to?
[09:41] <beg1689> strange i never heard of this player before but its the best one iver ever seen!
[09:41] <Kazol> what is the difference betwwen GTK and QT?
[09:41] <easyease> how bigs your hd last hero?
[09:41] <uplinked> is there a good channel to talk about customization? (specifically icons, in search of a good black/red theme)
[09:41] <beg1689> a music player called listen
[09:41] <Crane> abasinisvacant,  why are you needing root?
[09:41] <AlexC_> abasinisvacant: you can destory you're entire system, and it's a security risk
[09:41] <PriceChild> abasinisvacant, sudo is a security feature. root is disabled in ubuntu as a security feature.
[09:41] <Stormx2> mittwochstheke: You insalling mocp from the repos?
[09:41] <ScottLij> is there a reason not to? lol
[09:41] <beg1689> anyone know if there is a website for the listen media player? its impossible to search for one
[09:41] <abasinisvacant> crane, i recently updated dapper to edgy, but something went wrong, nautilus isn't working
[09:41] <PriceChild> abasinisvacant, anyone/any guide that tells you to use a root session instead of sudo is wrong or broken.
[09:41] <Dimensions> guys i know i should not ask it here but how do u uninstall an rpm package ? rpm -r *.rpm ?
[09:41] <mittwochstheke> Stormx2: yes. Multiverse, universe and security is enabled
[09:42] <Stormx2> Dimensions; How did you install it? alien?
[09:42] <I-m-new> Can anyone tell me whatever im upgrading its resume supported or not.
[09:42] <abasinisvacant> pricechild, ok
[09:42] <easyease> try sourceforge , beg1869
[09:42] <Flannel> abasinisvacant: sure.  a) there's no benefit, b) it opens up your machine to crackers, c) you can't use the recovery console without knowing the root account (so when you forget it, you need to use a liveCD), etc, etc.
[09:42] <Stormx2> mittwochstheke: Odd. Have you ran a sudo apt-get update ?
[09:42] <Dimensions> no Stormx2 its on my second system with RH not on this one
[09:42] <StucKman> Kazol: not much. both are very good widget libraries. gtk can run on C and up; qt runs on c++ and up, but has C bindings too
[09:42] <Crane> So what would being root accompish?
[09:42] <AlexC_> a lot, Crane
[09:42] <Crane> Will it run as root?
[09:42] <AlexC_> Crane: it's root, it can do anything - delete you're entire system, if you're not careful
[09:42] <Stormx2> Dimensions: Maybe ask in #fedora or ##linux? check the man page? Not here, thanks.
[09:43] <Stormx2> *sigh*
[09:43] <Stormx2> !root | Crane
[09:43] <ubotu> Crane: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[09:43] <abasinisvacant> flannel, ok.  but how do i fix nautilus?  i recently upgraded from dapper to edgy, and nautilus isn't working properly
[09:43] <Flannel> AlexC_: that hardly 'accomplishes' anything.  You can fix your system with sudo anyway.
[09:43] <Crane> I know I was talking to abasinisvacant
[09:43] <pewee> is there any way to write on ntfs while using ubuntu (ext3)?
[09:43] <Dimensions> geee thanks Stormx2 ...
[09:43] <Kazol> StucKman: which do you recommend? I just want to install nxclock in gui
[09:43] <Flannel> abasinisvacant: What is broken in nautilus?  being root won't fix anything magically.
[09:43] <Stormx2> Dimensions: Please see the topic.
[09:43] <AlexC_> Flannel: you've accomplished destorying you're system,
[09:43] <I-m-new> is there anyone official from Ubuntu to help me out.
[09:43] <Flannel> abasinisvacant: if you want a root shell, `sudo -i` in a console.
[09:43] <Last_Hero> pewee, I think ntfs is a proprietry format that belongs to microsoft
[09:43] <Stormx2> I-m-new: Why would they need to be official?
[09:44] <StucKman> Kazol: I prefer qt because I like kde more that gnome...
[09:44] <Crane> Guys I know what root is and sudo I am aking abasinisvacant what purpose root would help him
[09:44] <AlexC_> Last_Hero: pewee yes it is
[09:44] <Stormx2> Last_Hero: It doesn't "belong" to anyone.
[09:44] <abasinisvacant> flannel, i dont know what is broken, i just know it's not working properly, the background doesn't show
[09:44] <comosicus> what about linux and games......i whant to play heroes and it seems that the archive type is not suported.
[09:44] <Laurence> Does anyone know if it's possible to turn the beep off in Scrot (SCReenshOT)? It's getting annoyign!
[09:44] <comosicus> what can i do
[09:44] <abasinisvacant> Flannel, and there's a popup that tells me somethings wrong
[09:44] <jlee> anyone know where the weather report tool saves its settings?
[09:44] <Stormx2> comosicus: Does it run under linux?
[09:44] <jlee> It keeps using the right city name, but from some other state.
[09:45] <Loevborg> Does synaptic keep track of its updates in a log file somewhere?
[09:45] <AlexC_> comosicus: windows games are coded for Windows, would you expect a Linux program to run in Windows?
[09:45] <Crane> There are certain things sudo cannot do and you can still destroy a system with sudo. But I can't see a need to use root to run nautilus
[09:45] <SnrWhippy> whats the crack with backing up before doing the install from 6.10 to 7.04
[09:45] <Stormx2> jlee: There's one on gdesklets... Maybe its fixed in a new version?
[09:45] <AlexC_> !wine | comosicus
[09:45] <ubotu> comosicus: wine is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine for more information.
[09:45] <Stormx2> SnrWhippy: Define "crack"
[09:45] <comosicus> i have wine
[09:45] <arkanes> Crane: if you want to use nautilus to operate on system directories you need to run it asroot
[09:45] <Stormx2> comosicus: What is the archive type?
[09:45] <GolferX> jlee, right click on the icon and click preferences?
[09:45] <PriceChild> SnrWhippy, 7.04 is not finished. support in #ubuntu+1 keep backups as it is not finished and buggy
[09:45] <SnrWhippy> sorry whats the score
[09:45] <AlexC_> SnrWhippy: how do you mean? You do understand 7.04 is still Beta
[09:45] <uplinked> Is there a good customization channel around? I'm looking for an icon pack.
[09:45] <comosicus> i have many aplications for windows that i run in linux
[09:45] <Kazol> StucKman: Ok, I installed it. How do I run it?
[09:45] <mittwochstheke> Stormx2: yes.
[09:45] <Sloop1> Stormx2: I'm asking from every one that, I'm upgrading my Ubuntu the size is about 256 MB its huge for me because im on dialup. What if i cancel the update at any time. so whatever the upgrade have been downloaded will be upgrade or will start downloading again when i start upgrade next time.
[09:46] <PriceChild> uplinked, gnome-look.org
[09:46] <SnrWhippy> yeah fair enough i might wait
[09:46] <comosicus> but that is my first time when i try games
[09:46] <crooksey> Sloop1, wtf dude?
[09:46] <jlee> Storm: cool, is that the site? gdesklets.com?
[09:46] <StucKman> Kazol: ahm, it's just a library, not a program
[09:46] <PriceChild> Sloop1, it will continue where it left off
[09:46] <Crane> yes but if never mind, stop helping me and help abasinisvacant , I'm not asking questions
[09:46] <SnrWhippy> there needs to be a way to backup your system
[09:46] <lurasa> If I had ubuntu installed to dual boot with windows
[09:46] <uplinked> PriceChild, been browsing all day, thanks, no luck so far.
[09:46] <Flannel> Sloop1: no, I don't believe that will work well..  What you might want to do is download the alternate CD, with a torrent, or something else that uses resume.  Then upgrade that way
[09:46] <AlexC_> comosicus: if most of the applications you use are via Wine ... then why use Linux :S ?
[09:46] <abasinisvacant> crane, who're you talking to? ubotu?
[09:46] <Kazol> StucKman: what am I supposed to do next? How do I overclock?
[09:46] <lurasa> and just used partition magic to remove the partition, am I gonna have trouble rebooting ?
[09:46] <crooksey> omfg
[09:46] <mittwochstheke> Stormx2: oddest thing was, i couldn't use samba because of a missing smbfs right after install. This was because the installer didn't put in the security-repo. :(
[09:46] <SnrWhippy> especially since its very easy to break your system when your learning ubuntu
[09:46] <Stormx2> Sloop1: Yes that's possible. You can stop the upgrade as long as it is downloading. It will resume next time.
[09:47] <comosicus> for viruses
[09:47] <PriceChild> SnrWhippy, not if yo udon't abuse sudo
[09:47] <easyease> sloop1 your better off downloading a install iso and burning a cd than apt dist upgrading
[09:47] <Flannel> Sloop1: I stand corrected
[09:47] <comosicus> but that is not my problem
[09:47] <StucKman> Kazol: overclock? I dunno, and dunno what does it have to do with gtk or qt
[09:47] <Crane> LOL is anyone reading?
[09:47] <Sloop1> Ok Thanks.
[09:47] <Crane> never mind
[09:47] <jlee> Sloop: I beleive it will be fine becuase it runs a md5 sum on the files to check for corupt ones, but you can't quote me on that. I might be wrong.
[09:47] <PriceChild> Crane, use someone's name to direct it at them, hilights it on their screen
[09:47] <easyease> Flannel speaks much truth
[09:47] <Stormx2> jlee: Something like that. google it.
[09:47] <chemikal> Wow, sweet, installed my first application on linux.. Irssi... FUN!
[09:47] <comosicus> i just whant to know if i can play heroes ...........i whant to solve errors
[09:47] <Stormx2> chemikal: hehe. Synaptic?
[09:47] <Crane> I'll just keep quite
[09:48] <Stormx2> comosicus: What error are you having?
[09:48] <Crane> :P
[09:48] <StucKman> comosicus: most likely not
[09:48] <RyanAmos> Has anyone got mod_rewrite working 100% correctly with apache?
[09:48] <StucKman> chech wine's page
[09:48] <SnrWhippy> how do you direct in gaim
[09:48] <comosicus> whay not?
[09:48] <AlexC_> RyanAmos: #apache
[09:48] <Stormx2> Crane: Ah sorry mate... let me have a look
[09:48] <Sloop1> I'm downloading in parts.
[09:48] <chemikal> stormx2 > I have no idea what synaptic even is.. lol this is my 2nd day running linux, I r teh noob. I dude a sudo apt
[09:48] <Stormx2> SnrWhippy: Direct what?
[09:48] <PriceChild> RyanAmos, what problem are you having?
[09:48] <SnrWhippy> converations
[09:48] <StucKman> comosicus: windows games mostly don't run under linux
[09:48] <comosicus> the archive type is not suported
[09:48] <RyanAmos> AlexC_: I see it as being more of a ubuntu issue
[09:48] <StucKman> some can run under wine
[09:48] <chemikal> did*
[09:48] <jlee> Yeah I live in Gadsden AL, and the damn thing keeps pulling weather for Gadsden AZ after an hour of sitting there
[09:48] <Flannel> comosicus: what sort of archive is it?
[09:48] <RyanAmos> It's not passing get variables, it looks like it does Indexes only?
[09:48] <Crane> Stormx2, there is nothing to look at, I did not ask a question
[09:48] <Stormx2> chemikal: Ah yeah, okay. If you want a nice interface, look under System > Administrations > Synaptic
[09:48] <comosicus> i'm looking right now
[09:49] <Stormx2> Crane: Ah okay.
[09:49] <PriceChild> RyanAmos, AlexC_ #apache won't like him going there as ubnntu messes around with the install and puts bits everywhere
[09:49] <chemikal> Stormx2 > ah thanks, I'll check it out.
[09:49] <mittwochstheke> lol.. ubuntu.com crashes konqueror..
[09:49] <RyanAmos> RewriteRule "^/?(view)/[^/] $" view.php?view=$3 [Last]
[09:49] <RyanAmos> That's my rewrite rule
[09:49] <RyanAmos> But it just redirects to view
[09:49] <StucKman> RyanAmos: you have no $3
[09:49] <Muninn> I have a question about "reparing" a Ubuntu install. I installed Ubuntu a couple of days ago, and when I booted that machine up about an hour ago, I got an error in XServer. I'm asking for help in their room as well, just checking if anyone in here has any suggestions about how to a) get around this or b) fix it.
[09:49] <RyanAmos> yea that was me testing it
[09:49] <RyanAmos> RewriteRule "^/?(view)/[^/] $" view.php?view=$1 [Last]
[09:49] <RyanAmos> 2 even
[09:49] <Stormx2> RyanAmos: Try $1
[09:49] <RyanAmos> hah
[09:49] <Flannel> PriceChild, RyanAmos, debian's apache formatting is fine.  It's standard for debian machines.  Heck, it's even documented in apache docs.  You'll need to be aware that some stuff is in different places, but help is the same.
[09:50] <mittwochstheke> lol.. ubuntu.com crashes konqueror HARD
[09:50] <justin420> anybody help or give me a link for a howto on basically usb audio and ubuntu edgy? I have a plantronics dsp-400 and a sound blaster live value 5.1 pci sound card.  when i plug in the usb headset i dont hear any sound coming out of it even after switching the preferences>sound then change all to usb audio and making sure the plantronics headset is the default sound card.
[09:50] <StucKman> RyanAmos: $1 vill have 'view' in it
[09:50] <Stormx2> Its an awful web design anyway.
[09:50] <Crane> Muninn, what error did you get
[09:50] <RyanAmos> Yes, $2 is what I'm after
[09:50] <PriceChild> Flannel, I assumed it was a problem with loading themodule sorry
[09:50] <RyanAmos> I've modified my 000-default files to AllowOverride all
[09:50] <GolferX> when I do an upgrade after having done an update, are new programs installed because of the upgrade or will critical files be updated of programs I originally installed?
[09:50] <Muninn> Crane: http://wiki.x.org/wiki/FAQErrorMessages#head-93b1e0b56f76546d61364f789045e9c745b6cfd4 <-- This one. No devices detected.
[09:50] <StucKman> RyanAmos: ahmmm, I think you don't understand how $n vars are filled...
[09:51] <Phopsy> dyrne: Are you still there?
[09:51] <RyanAmos> StucKman: That's not what the problem is, I know that
[09:51] <Flannel> GolferX: new programs won't be installed (like the new kernel) with an 'upgrade', just newer versions of packages you already have installed.  To install the new dependencies, you need to dist-upgrade
[09:51] <StucKman> RyanAmos: they're filled with the parts that matches the regex parts between ()'s
[09:51] <bonny> hello i need some help with ubuntu, and i keep getting lost in all the info that i find online
[09:51] <jlee> Od, this new firefox won't view some pages unless maximized
[09:52] <RyanAmos> Either way, it should be setting the $_GET variable view empty or non-empty
[09:52] <RyanAmos> It's not even setting it, so I know that's not the issue
[09:52] <Crane> Muninn, what driver are you running
[09:52] <StucKman> so if some url matches ^/?(view)/[^/] $, you'll only get what matches 'view' in $1
[09:52] <CheshireViking> jlee, what pages?
[09:52] <mittwochstheke> I cannot install ANYTHING. mozilla gives a bunch of dependency-errors which traverse through all other included dependencies. Why is that? What did I do wrong? I just installed from cd-rom (6.06)
[09:52] <Muninn> Crane: I don't know. :)
[09:52] <Flannel> !ask | bonny
[09:52] <ubotu> bonny: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[09:52] <GolferX> flannel, good. it's always bothered me, I never knew definitively what was taking place
[09:52] <PriceChild> bonny, what'r eyou having a problem with?
[09:52] <RyanAmos> Exactly, but I want what is after the trailing /
[09:52] <RyanAmos> Which is in $2
[09:52] <jlee> gDesklets.org
[09:53] <Crane> Muninn, Did you change anything when you booted the first time?
[09:53] <Flannel> mittwochstheke: pastebin the errors, and your sources.list please
[09:53] <jlee> I have to minimize and Maximize after every click to see the changed pages
[09:53] <Muninn> Crane: Not that I know to.
[09:53] <Crane> Muninn, What version
[09:53] <Muninn> Crane: 6.10
[09:53] <ubuntuEdgy> how can i use nautillus while on a shh session ?
[09:53] <Stormx2> mittwochstheke: There are some security updates, have you installed all of them?
[09:53] <bonny> I'm taking a computer programming course and need to be able to write and compile simple java programs, and cannot figure out how to do it in ubuntu.
[09:53] <StucKman> RyanAmos: try some RedirectMatch first, or check the logs where is it rewriting too. also, set the RedirectLevel (or something like that) to something usefull
[09:53] <easyease> munnin did you install nvidia driver then upgrade kernel?#
[09:53] <Stormx2> bonny: Do you even compile java? o.o
[09:53] <ubuntuEdgy> i get this all the time cannot open display:
[09:53] <Stormx2> ah i guess you do...
[09:53] <StucKman> RyanAmos: no, it's not in $12
[09:53] <Muninn> easyease: Not as far as I know.
[09:53] <moyogo> bonny: do you have java installed
[09:54] <bonny> yes you do stormx2
[09:54] <mittwochstheke> hmm. i'm trying to upgrade. 121 packages are not yet uptodate
[09:54] <StucKman> you gotta put it between ()'s
[09:54] <zany_zebra> I have already run a script to replace nautillus as the file manager, but the places menu and any icon on the desktop to a place still open nautillus. Is it possible to completely replace nautillus? it seems it only happened in name.
[09:54] <Flannel> !java | bonny
[09:54] <ubotu> bonny: To install a Java compiler/interpreter on Ubuntu, look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java - For the Sun Java runtime install sun-java5-jre from the !Multiverse repository. Enable the backports repository on Edgy to install sun-java6-jre
[09:54] <RyanAmos> I have a feeling it's an issue with this in my 000-default file: Options Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews
[09:54] <PriceChild> mittwochstheke, sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[09:54] <Last_Hero> Stormx2, Java compiles to a "byte code" somewhere between Java and Binary
[09:54] <GolferX> flannel, but actually is it right to think that it's ok to do the dist-upgrade also since it does involve dependencies?
[09:54] <Kazol> I have a file in /usr/bin that I cannot link to. I cannot even copy it to the desktop due to insufficient permissions.
[09:54] <jovani> HOLA
[09:54] <mittwochstheke> (which never posed a problem in debian. I usually have 400-600 not updated packages there for a bunch of weeks)
[09:54] <Flannel> bonny: once you've installed sun's java package, compiling/running is identical to elsewhere
[09:54] <mittwochstheke> PriceChild: dist? Are you sure??
[09:54] <bonny> ahg... i'm lost now ubotu...
[09:55] <PriceChild> mittwochstheke, it won't take you to feisty don't worry ;)
[09:55] <jovani> HELLO
[09:55] <bonny> i'm a beginer and that all looked like garble
[09:55] <StucKman> RyanAmos: try RedirectMatch first
[09:55] <PriceChild> mittwochstheke, its more aggressive and will download new packages if its needed
[09:55] <zany_zebra> bonny: ubotu is a bot.
[09:55] <mittwochstheke> PriceChild: hmm. I wouldn't care, as long as i could install packages afterwards ... :)
[09:55] <bonny> oh
[09:55] <Kazol> why can't I link a file in /usr/bin?
[09:55] <mittwochstheke> PriceChild: ok, as in debian :)
[09:55] <PriceChild> mittwochstheke, yup
[09:55] <zany_zebra> bonny: what do you need help with?
[09:55] <SgtRhoruns> eh... what do i do in the event that Beryl prevents my GUI from coming up.....?
[09:55] <Flannel> GolferX: for new kernels and stuff? yeah.  Or you can type out the packages manually, that's another way.  It's because the stuff you currently have installed (linux-image-arch) has changed dependnecy (to linux-image-new.version.number-arch)
[09:55] <CheshireViking> jlee, seems to be ok for me, i don't need to minimise/maximise between pages
[09:55] <lajnix> is there a swedish ubuntu chan :D
[09:55] <Stormx2> Kazol; Maybe you need to use sudo?
[09:55] <StucKman> Kazol: what command are you using?
[09:55] <Flannel> SgtRhoruns: #ubuntu-effects for Beryl support, thanks
[09:55] <zany_zebra> bonny: i am pretty new, i will try and help you
[09:55] <RyanAmos> Ok, well let me go do some research on it first...  I couldn't get the rewrite log file working last night

[10:19] <ubotu> netsplit is when two IRC servers of the same network (like Freenode) disconnect from each other, so users on one server stop seeing users on the other. If this is happening now, just relax and enjoy the show. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Netsplit

[10:21] <SeveredCross> That leaves you room to create 1 more extended partition, with logical partitions in it if you need to.

[10:25] <Insolit> hi all! i've installed ubuntu into a system with windows vista installed
[10:25] <jds1> I'm on edgy, and that's probably the only thing I have left to fix (finally got Beryl working!)
[10:25] <shodanjr_gr> initially i tried to follow the tutorial on the documentation page whcih tells me to go to the administration -> disks tool, but there is no such tool on my system!!!
[10:26] <Insolit> i can now boot to ubuntu with grub
[10:26] <CheshireViking> brian_faia, certainly odd, could it be something to do with the refresh rates in xorg?
[10:26] <fbc> shodanjr_gr:  use automatix . it has an NTFS autoloader option builtin already.
[10:26] <Insolit> but can't boot into windows vista
[10:26] <FD-Spuddy> Hi im back
[10:26] <FD-Spuddy> No Wireless adapter came up
[10:26] <shodanjr_gr> fbc: automatix = ???
[10:26] <CheshireViking> !automatix
[10:26] <ubotu> automatix is a script that tries to install some software, and often fails and breaks systems. We don't provide support for it, and we strongly discourage its use. Problems caused by Automatix are often hard to track and solve, and it might sometimes be easier to !install a fresh copy of Ubuntu. See also !WorksForMe
[10:26] <Insolit> the system simply restarts with no error
[10:26] <Insolit> could anyone tell me what to do to recover windows vista boot?
[10:26] <shodanjr_gr> how do i use automatix?
[10:26] <fbc> !worksforme
[10:26] <ubotu> Common Sense: Just because you can, does not mean you should. Think before you do. "Works for me" does not mean it is ok. The latest version of everything is not always useful if you aim for stability.
[10:26] <brian_faia> CheshireViking: well, in the wiki, it said to try to manually set those refresh rates. I set it to the manufacturer rate of 60 hz, and it seemed to make the problem even worse.

[10:27] <brian_faia> CheshireViking: this only happens after I restart the entire system. I can restart X server all day long and not have a problem
[10:27] <um_whoa> that works for me was uncalled for, dude
[10:27] <Silent_Chaos> i was editing my xorg, i restarted and got dumped inot a text terminal saying xorg.cong could not load, i have tryed resetting it via "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg", but still get the same errors, anyone know how to fix this?

[10:28] <brian_faia> you are using the nvidia-glx driver, right CheshireViking ? or are you using the legacy driver?
[10:28] <um_whoa> you got to be kidding me

[10:29] <sancho> Noone with bluetooth experience?
[10:29] <CheshireViking> brian_faia, what machine are you running linux on? mine is a dell 8100 laptop, could alway compare xorg files - my nvidia driver is the 9631 version
[10:29] <uplinked> um_whoa, did you mean "you've gotta be kidding me" in relation to exes with wine on linus?
[10:29] <uplinked> linux*

[10:29] <fbc> I've installed wine and I can't figure out how to associate it with EXE's at all..  HELP!
[10:29] <brian_faia> CheshireViking: Running Edgy gnome
[10:29] <brian_faia> CheshireViking: I don't know what version my driver is.
[10:29] <um_whoa> because linux doesn't use exe in fact if doesn
[10:30] <brian_faia> CheshireViking: whatever is the newest in the repos
[10:30] <mogydy> hi, i am trying to install ubuntu edgy on an old mac (g3) but the screen goes into sleep mode (lamp goes orange) halfway the live cd boot, any ideas?
[10:30] <um_whoa> doesn't view things in that way, it sees them as all files some files have an executable bit others don't
[10:30] <um_whoa>  that's why
[10:30] <ubernewb> hey all, if my chroot environment has an ip of x.x.x.1 and my non chroot environment has a chroot of x.x.x.1 will this cause services that are loaded in both environement to barf?
[10:30] <CheshireViking> brian_faia, same here - try clicking Applications, System Tools & Nvidia Settings (if you've got it installed)
[10:30] <Mirth> SOB!!!
[10:30] <brian_faia> CheshireViking: no, that isn't installed . . .
[10:30] <Mirth> I accidentally deleted my top panel.
[10:30] <brian_faia> CheshireViking: what package is that?
[10:30] <Mirth> Is there a way to get it back?
[10:30] <Silent_Chaos> anyone know how to put my xorg.conf back to the standard from the live disk?
[10:31] <screv> can anyone help me get access to a 2nd HD (ntfs)?
[10:31] <um_whoa> how, via rm?
[10:31] <CheshireViking> brian_faia, i'm not sure what the package is, let me check
[10:31] <mogydy> right click on the other panel and select add panel
[10:31] <uplinked> Mirth, if you have no panels open, run (alt+f2) "gnome-panel"
[10:32] <brian_faia> ok, CheshireViking it is the nvidia-settings package, but it asks me to remove the nvidia-glx driver!
[10:32] <sancho> Bluetooth cant scan for any device. Some help available?
[10:32] <brian_faia> CheshireViking: are you using the legacy driver?
[10:32] <ashfaith> werd
[10:32] <thezenmaster> what's the command to delete a folder? (as sudo)
[10:32] <Mirth> Alt + F2 didn't do anything for me uplinked :(
[10:32] <oliver_g> Mirth: if you still have the bottom panel, right-click on it and select Create Panel
[10:32] <uplinked> Mirth, any way of opening a terminal from your screen?
[10:33] <oliver_g> Mirth: this gives you a new panel, but I guess you have to add all the stuff to it manually :-/
[10:33] <uplinked> Mirth, unless you still have a bottom panel, in which case, ignore me and listen to oliver_g
[10:33] <oliver_g> thezenmaster: command is rm -r
[10:33] <cables> Does anyone know where the "default" home folder is stored? Whenever I create a new user, the panels are screwed up.
[10:33] <CheshireViking> brian_faia, i'm using the 9631 driver - installed using Envy because I problems getting 3d working properly
[10:33] <um_whoa> do rm -ir
[10:33] <Mirth> I can access the terminal uplinked
[10:33] <thezenmaster> oliver_g thanks!
[10:33] <pewee> SeveredCross: Partitioning went just fine. Thanks for your help. :)
[10:33] <um_whoa> that way you don't come back saying you killed things you perhaps didn't want to with the recursive bit
[10:34] <uplinked> Mirth, open it, and just type "gnome-panel"
[10:34] <uplinked> you should be fine. i run with mine closed about 90% of the time :)
[10:34] <brian_faia> CheshireViking: I tried Envy first, but it broke my x just like the driver from the repos
[10:34] <pewee> this community does really (how do i put it best...) rock the shit.
[10:34] <oliver_g> um_whoa: good idea, thanks!
[10:34] <psusi> cables, /etc/skel
[10:34] <cables> psusi, thanks
[10:35] <sancho> Noone with tips for bluetooth problem? Please...
[10:35] <CheshireViking> brian_faia, i'm not sure i can help, i can pastebin my xorg that is working if that'll help
[10:35] <um_whoa> really you should set an alias for rm  such as alias rm="rm -i" that way you don't accidently kill things in general
[10:35] <shodanjr_gr> sancho:
[10:35] <shodanjr_gr> sancho: what is the issue?
[10:35] <Mirth> so now I have a blank panel, hehe!
[10:35] <KratoS>
[10:35] <Silent_Chaos>  i was editing my xorg, i restarted and got dumped inot a text terminal saying xorg.cong could not load, i have tryed resetting it via "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg", but still get the same errors, anyone know how to fix this?
[10:35] <uplinked> Mirth, yep, that sucks, but unavoidable. Right Click, Add To Panel, and get crackin' :)
[10:36] <Mirth> Doh, lol
[10:36] <Mirth> I hope they can fix that in Fiesty
[10:36] <Mirth> Last time I deleted my panel, I just reinstalled Ubuntu
[10:36] <cables> psusi, I looked in /etc/skel and all it has is Examples and some .bash-whatever files. Do you know where the default gconf is?
[10:36] <uplinked> Mirth, Nothing to fix- forgive me if I'm mistaken, but it sounds like you clicked "Close Panel", then "Yes, Delete all my settings"
[10:36] <screv> can anyone help me get access to a 2nd HD (ntfs)?
[10:37] <um_whoa> how did you delete your panel and what are you referring to as your panel?

[10:37] <shodanjr_gr> i was very surprised to find out that ubuntu managed to autodetect my laptop's bluetooth module, and all i needed was to download the OBEX file transfer dealie via Synaptic

[10:38] <uplinked> Mirth, if you ever want to close it without deleting, try preferences->sessions->second tab, "remove" gnome panel, then apply. Like I said, I don't leave it open, typically
[10:39] <psusi> does anyone have any idea how xlsfonts and xfontsel can show a font, but applications fail to get the FontStruct and use the font?  it's like it exists, but it doesn't
[10:39] <um_whoa> uplink, what is it that you are referring to as a panel?
[10:39] <uplinked> um_whoa, the panel. gnome-panel.

[10:41] <um_whoa> i guess though that is a great way to see exactally what you are referring to as a panel

[10:42] <uplinked> correct
[10:42] <aalhamad> yes

[10:43] <aalhamad> Mm.. avi?
[10:43] <uplinked> you'll have trouble finding a tool like that for linux, i think, aalhamad since there's a very limited number of linux-compatible flash libraries
[10:43] <Stormx2> nexousNET: Checked the repos?
[10:43] <oliver_g> nexousNET: doesn't apt-get install vim help? :-)
[10:43] <nexousNET> Stormx2: no I haven't

[10:43] <aalhamad> ok..

[10:48] <ninix> hi, do u think have a fresh install can solve my "no 3d accel" problem with my ati ?  my both pc don't want to work. (these two was dapper before)
[10:48] <Stormx2> nexousNET: Why sudo?
[10:48] <pewee> mmmh....anyone using a 8800 and 6.10? :)
[10:48] <Stormx2> !automatix | shodanjr_gr
[10:48] <ubotu> shodanjr_gr: automatix is a script that tries to install some software, and often fails and breaks systems. We don't provide support for it, and we strongly discourage its use.

[10:55] <FD-Spuddy> WIRELESS However
[10:56] <FD-Spuddy> Is peeing me off
[10:56] <ChrisTek> I've never been able to get wifi to work.
[10:56] <FD-Spuddy> I aint a clue where to get wireless stuff
[10:56] <Stormx2> Checked if your card is supported etc?
[10:56] <preaction> rather be peed off than peed on
[10:56] <Stormx2> My wifi works fine with a driver.
[10:56] <FD-Spuddy> Well sombody said
[10:56] <um_whoa> relax, you won't get it fixed if you are all upet
[10:56] <FD-Spuddy> That the Belkin 56g or 128G
[10:56] <FD-Spuddy> And i got the 125mb
[10:56] <Stormx2> Okay
[10:56] <Stormx2> !wireless
[10:56] <FD-Spuddy> And they said it works
[10:56] <ubotu> Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[10:56] <FD-Spuddy> However im murdering it
[10:56] <moonwhisper> So...I just got Ubuntu up and running...sort of.  I'm having problems getting video card drivers installed, wants to run as root.
[10:56] <FD-Spuddy> I BEEN THER
[10:56] <FD-Spuddy> THERE
[10:56] <Stormx2> Checked your card in there?
[10:57] <Stormx2> Also check ubuntuforums.org
[10:57] <Stormx2> FD-Spuddy: Don't shout.
[10:57] <um_whoa> storm, he has seen that !wireless deal like 20 times now
[10:57] <moonwhisper> How do I do run stuff as root?  Barring that, how do I log into root?
[10:57] <FD-Spuddy> I AINT TRYED that NDISWrapper
[10:57] <psusi> moonwhisper, prefix it with sudo
[10:57] <ChrisTek> Just log in, using root, and your admin pass
[10:57] <ikonia> evening all
[10:57] <preaction> !sudo | moonwhisper
[10:57] <ubotu> moonwhisper: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[10:57] <Stormx2> moonwhisper: You don't log in as root.
[10:57] <ChrisTek> Or gksu from command line
[10:57] <ChrisTek> If Im correct
[10:57] <moonwhisper> What command?  I tried sudo and the package name but it didn't work
[10:57] <canarinodaguerr4> salve
[10:58] <psusi> moonwhisper, whatever command you otherwise are running that says it must be run as root
[10:58] <ChrisTek> When I update and things, I do gksu "program-name -switches"
[10:58] <ChrisTek> EG gksu "update-manager -c -d"
[10:58] <FD-Spuddy> Belkin is in there
[10:58] <FD-Spuddy> Belkin F5D7050
[10:58] <ChrisTek> And then it will ask you for the admin pass
[10:58] <psusi> no, it asks you for YOUR pass
[10:58] <craigbass1976> How do I capture streaming mp3 for later listening?
[10:59] <Stormx2> craigbass1976; Theres a package for that... Can't remember its name
[10:59] <uplinked> craigbass1976, i've always had luck with fishing nets *shrugs*
[10:59] <Stormx2> Search in synaptic for "stream" (name only)
[10:59] <sirkism> why can't i get this broadcom driver to work on my hp pavilion?
[10:59] <craigbass1976> fishing nets....
[10:59] <Stormx2> ChrisTek: No it won't. It will ask for your password.
[10:59] <FD-Spuddy> eh
[10:59] <FD-Spuddy> Linux is weird
[10:59] <uplinked> sorry, long day :)
[10:59] <FD-Spuddy> How do i open programs
[10:59] <FD-Spuddy> and like install things :s
[10:59] <Stormx2> *sigh*
[10:59] <ChrisTek> :S
[10:59] <Stormx2> Read the basic guide.
[10:59] <Stormx2> Ya?
[10:59] <craigbass1976> hehe
[11:00] <ChrisTek> What he said.
[11:00] <ChrisTek> :|
[11:00] <FD-Spuddy> Screw Instrctuions
[11:00] <ChrisTek> :|
[11:00] <Stormx2> Installing is mainly System > Administration > Synaptic
[11:00] <ChrisTek> You won't make a good linux user.
[11:00] <moonwhisper> psusi, I don't what command was being used.  I clicked the package and told it to run as terminal.  No idea what command that is
[11:00] <uplinked> Dude, the best we can do in this channel is just give you more instructions
[11:00] <sirkism> embrace your fellow user=x
[11:00] <ChrisTek> Anyone know how to get this Dell/intel wifi integrated wifi working?
[11:00] <uplinked> The difference is that ours will be briefer, less detailed, more prone to error, and more frustrating for everyone, than if you just read the manual
[11:00] <FD-Spuddy> i know i know
[11:00] <FD-Spuddy> But i get thrustrated with Linux
[11:01] <FD-Spuddy> I dont know why
[11:01] <uplinked> ChrisTek, I have my e1505 wireless working just fine. what's up?
[11:01] <FD-Spuddy> Formatting Windows / Fixing windows
[11:01] <FD-Spuddy> I can handel
[11:01] <achandra> Gave up my linux job to work on something different. Chose to teach highschool math in the USA. What was I thinking???
[11:01] <FD-Spuddy> But linux
[11:01] <ChrisTek> I have an OLD inspiron 1150
[11:01] <albacker> how do i install all codecs ? where is the tuto ? [using feisty]  !
[11:01] <um_whoa> spuddy, go take a break and come back to us more calm.
[11:01] <uplinked> ChrisTek, *shivers* have you tried the ndiswrapper guide yet?
[11:01] <Stormx2> FD-Spuddy: Take it one step at a time, k? You don't get fustrated at "linux" because linux is a kernel. I don't mean to get all technical but most of the time its just 1 app.
[11:01] <FD-Spuddy> im carm im eating more food dont you worry me carm now
[11:01] <ChrisTek> No
[11:01] <FD-Spuddy> *choclate*
[11:01] <um_whoa>  because in this state you are just making the room hostile.
[11:01] <ChrisTek> You have a link?
[11:01] <uplinked> Uhh, lemme look
[11:02] <uplinked> !wireless | ChrisTek
[11:02] <ubotu> ChrisTek: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[11:02] <uplinked> not 100% if that was it
[11:02] <ChrisTek> I'm not on the supported list, I don't think
[11:02] <ChrisTek> It's not under "Dell" anyways
[11:02] <ChrisTek> It may be one of the intel cards
[11:02] <achandra> ChrisTek: does either dmesg or lsmod yield messages of "claimed module" driver or errors??
[11:02] <FD-Spuddy> Cant wait to get laptop just wire it to that lol
[11:02] <FD-Spuddy> No wifi

[11:04] <Phopsy> Hiya; getting some strange error message when connecting my camera to USB port in Edgy 6.10 - "An error occurred in the io-library ('Could not claim the USB device'): Could not claim interface 0 (Operation not permitted). Make sure no other program or kernel module (such as sdc2xx, stv680, spca50x) is using the device and you have read/write access to the device."
[11:04] <LjL> albacker: feisty support is in #ubuntu+1, and if you don't know about that, and need to resort to automatix, you shouldn't be using an experimental version such as Feisty. nevertheless -- yes, what the bot said.
[11:04] <ChrisTek> All I'm seeing is [17179592.504000]  bcm43xx: Error: Microcode "bcm43xx_microcode5.fw" not available or load failed.
[11:04] <ChrisTek> [17179592.516000]  bcm43xx: Error: Microcode "bcm43xx_microcode5.fw" not available or load failed.
[11:04] <ChrisTek> But that's my 56k modem, I beleive
[11:04] <uplinked> ChrisTek, http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=31926 worked for my card, best of luck to you :)
[11:04] <LjL> !automatix > albacker    (albacker, see the private message from Ubotu) | also, see this about automatix please.
[11:05] <ChrisTek> I heard Feisty has better support for wifi?
[11:05] <albacker> LjL, ok :)
[11:05] <fogobogo> Hi! could anybody tell me where i can find ~/.Xdefaults? I like to make some permanent settings for rxvt. i had a look but couldnt find it
[11:05] <uplinked> ChrisTek, the bcm43xx is what my Broadcom 1490 B/G adapter (in an Inspiron 6400/e1505) was "auto detected" as, but apparently, that's broken.
[11:05] <achandra> ChrisTek: this is a very common issue due to the fact that native Broadcom drivers are horrible with linux
[11:05] <s22> fogobogo: if it doesn't exist, create it
[11:05] <Phopsy> Hiya; getting some strange error message when connecting my camera to USB port in Edgy 6.10 - "An error occurred in the io-library ('Could not claim the USB device'): Could not claim interface 0 (Operation not permitted). Make sure no other program or kernel module (such as sdc2xx, stv680, spca50x) is using the device and you have read/write access to the device."
[11:05] <uplinked> ChrisTek, using ndiswrapper, you can use the windows drivers under linux, meaning you can get the "right" ones off the dell site, and then just install them.
[11:06] <achandra> ChrisTek: Id suggest using ndiswrapper and then the network-manager tool
[11:06] <fogobogo> where exactly just /home or/home/userxy ? s22
[11:06] <achandra> Christek: this will let you install the proper ndiswrapper windows driver and move on from there
[11:06] <ChrisTek> Tried network manager already.
[11:06] <achandra> Christek: I never did get this working in edgy...in dapper its flawless
[11:06] <s22> fogobogo: yes
[11:06] <ChrisTek> I'm running Edgy :(
[11:06] <yell0w> ChrisTek, i'm running off of ndiswrapper and network manager for bcm 4318
[11:06] <Ulvesang> yeah, i've checked most of those websites, but they don't have my laptop model. toshiba equium l20. basically it has to do with power management issues. even when i tried to add acpi support to older versions, it's still cocked up
[11:07] <achandra> ChrisTek: are u using the fw-cutter method of loading the driver or??
[11:07] <ChrisTek> I'll try the ndiswrapper though.
[11:07] <ChrisTek> I will BRB
[11:07] <albacker> LjL, what should i do, so that i dont get a WARNING like : The following packages cannot be authenticated ?
[11:07] <achandra> yep
[11:07] <ChrisTek> Let me try this :P
[11:07] <s22> fogobogo: /home/userxy
[11:07] <uplinked> ChrisTek, I'm using ndiswrapper on edgy
[11:07] <albacker> !Authentication
[11:07] <Aftermath_> /quit and /part are on a boat. /part jumps off, who's left?

[11:07] <ChrisTek> Cool. Ill try it real quicj
[11:07] <fogobogo> s22 thanks!
[11:07] <s22> np
[11:07] <ph8> can anyone tell me how to find the UUIDs of my external USB drives so I can add them to /etc/fstab to mount by UUID rather than by /dev/sdb1 /dev/sdc5 etc ?
[11:07] <LjL> albacker: add keys for the repositories you're using to your system. however - are you using non-standard repositories? for the standard ones, the keys should already be there.
[11:07] <LjL> !gpgerr > albacker    (albacker, see the private message from Ubotu)
[11:07] <ChrisTek> Would you recommend updating to Feisty?
[11:08] <ChrisTek> Or staying at 6.1
[11:08] <albacker> LjL, k thnx
[11:08] <yell0w> ChrisTek, i'm running dapper and still happy, so it all depends on your needs
[11:08] <LjL> ChrisTek, Feisty is not released, so clearly you're recommended to *not* update, unless you merely want to help testing it, and are OK with a broken system
[11:08] <moonwhisper> ARgh...
[11:09] <tidrion> I love dapper
[11:09] <Phopsy> ph8: I think you can list /dev/drives/ by UUID
[11:09] <ph8> cheers
[11:09] <tidrion> just wish I could get firefox 2 running
[11:09] <achandra> Christek: if you wnat stuff to work...dapper
[11:10] <madhatter349> hey
[11:10] <moonwhisper> So, I'm running Edgy EFT and I know precisely nothing about Linux.  What command would I use to execute a package as root?  Or in general?   What cards are listed?
[11:13] <uplinked> Morris, you kind of have to guess, based on which cards have IPs, etc.
[11:14] <nexous> Hi, How do I apply the syntax highlighter in VIM? I moved php.vim to ~/.vim/syntax/php.vim
[11:14] <Askar> How do I give myself permission to empty trashbin?
[11:14] <madhatter349> anybody have mythtv running on there pc
[11:14] <Morris> well the one with the ip is ath0 .. but doesnt the mac address listen on it belong to the Access point??
[11:14] <SirBob1701_> I was wondering when fiesty goes final will edgy be able to update to it or will we have to reinstall? or just do some command line stuff?
[11:14] <DaveG|> for some reason, when i boot my ubuntu, it just freezes like it did when i was trying it with the live cd... 7.04, and also 6.10 ... .. what the heck is the problem????
[11:15] <uplinked> Morris, nope, the mac address from ifconfig should be the wireless card's own.
[11:15] <Morris> okk thx uplinked
[11:15] <Morris> oh last question
[11:15] <ChrisTek> I must be doing something totally STUPID, but I'm getting errors when trying to run "make" on ndiswrapper-1.39
[11:15] <uplinked> SirBob1701_, I updated from Edgy to Feisty last week, no format necessary.
[11:16] <SirBob1701_> did you download the iso or just do some command line stuff?
[11:16] <Morris> i did "ifconfig ath0 destroy" now ... how can i get ath0 back up so it shows in ifconfig??
[11:16] <uplinked> ChrisTek, do you have all the libraries, etc?
[11:16] <ChrisTek> Ubuntu doesn't come with make...?
[11:16] <uplinked> SirBob1701_, gui, actually, I didn't download an ISO, and I only ran one command line.
[11:16] <uplinked> ChrisTek, it does.
[11:16] <Morris> i did "ifconfig ath0 destroy" now ... how can i get ath0 back up so it shows in ifconfig??...
[11:16] <Flannel> ChrisTek: No.  But it's easy to install.
[11:16] <SirBob1701_> i'll have to look into it
[11:17] <SirBob1701_> tanks
[11:17] <uplinked> Morris, that's new to me. I don't know, actually
[11:17] <ChrisTek> Wow. Okay.

[11:17] <ChrisTek> Is it available in update manager or do I have to go hunt it down?
[11:17] <luke-jr|work> ChrisTek: aptitude install build-essential ?
[11:17] <ChrisTek> Ill try that
[11:17] <uplinked> Morris, what told you to "destroy"? I've never heard of that option before
[11:18] <Flannel> ChrisTek: it's in the repositories, 'build-essential'.  It's also on the CD (both desktop an alternate) if you need it to connect to the interblags

[11:18] <ChrisTek> Comes with EVERYTHING, pretty much.
[11:18] <yell0w> ChrisTek, might wanna grab autoconf and automake as well while you're at it
[11:18] <uplinked> ChrisTek, yeah, I'm used to Gentoo, odd that Ubuntu wouldn't have make with it, to me.
[11:18] <ooglaboogla> how do i play DVD movies on my laptop with Ubuntu 7.04 beta, clean install, says movie is encrypted then exits, gxine, mplayer, etc
[11:19] <ChrisTek> Odd that any distro wouldn't include make
[11:19] <Flannel> uplinked, ChrisTek, there's no real need for most people to compile anything, so make is useless to most.

[11:20] <yell0w> alextj, aptitude show appname
[11:20] <Spliffster> ChrisTek: well lloads of typos you et prolly what i meant if you know debian
[11:20] <alextj> try sudo su
[11:20] <uplinked> Morris, sudo su -
[11:21] <Flannel> Morris: because ubuntu has the root account locked.  use `sudo -i` if you really want a root shell
[11:21] <uplinked> Morris, but that comes with a heavy "i wouldn't do that" recommendation
[11:21] <Flannel> uplinked, alextj, sudo -i, not sudo su
[11:21] <ChrisTek> One of the distros I used gave a "This is STUPID!" error at that :P

[11:22] <jlee> It is a bit of work
[11:23] <jlee> I could pastebin it for you
[11:23] <uplinked> noelferreira, I think you can probably use the edgy beryl install guide on feisty, but I ran into minor trouble when I upgraded from edgy+beryl to feisty, and had to re-do a few steps.
[11:23] <Coralune> Ok, that was odd
[11:23] <nexous> jlee: okay.
[11:23] <Flannel> jlee: You'll want to install the full vim first, since as of Edgy, ubuntu only ships with vim-tiny by default

[11:24] <noelferreira> running beryl-manager fails Flannel
[11:24] <uplinked> noelferreira, Flannel, after upgrading to Feisty, my fglrx drivers got reinstalled and reconfigured. I had to re-remove them (didn't realize they were back), and recompile a few mesa libraries.
[11:24] <Flannel> noelferreira: You'd have to ask in #ubuntu+1 then, that's the channel for Feisty support.
[11:24] <theacolyte> noelferreira: are you running xgl?
[11:24] <whta> why does it take 5 or so minutes for me to log out?
[11:24] <uplinked> noelferreira, Flannel, but that's on an upgrade from edgy to feisty, so that's likely not relavent to her
[11:24] <uplinked> him/her.
[11:25] <alextj> yell0w, thanks
[11:25] <Coralune> Someone was offering some advice on how to install video drivers.  Had this weird port exploit error from IRC
[11:25] <alextj> got it
[11:25] <noelferreira> i still need xgl theacolyte?
[11:25] <cables> Did someone pull a DCC exploit?
[11:25] <theacolyte> noelferreira: yes
[11:25] <noelferreira> :(
[11:25] <jlee> nexous: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/12654/
[11:25] <noelferreira> ok
[11:25] <ooglaboogla> thanks for the info
[11:25] <jlee> nexous: that is my .vimrc file
[11:25] <craigbass1976> Hey guys, I got it.  install streamripper, and streamtuner and you can record streaming mp3.  It even seperates the songs for you!
[11:25] <noelferreira> so edgy howto would work right ? theacolyte
[11:26] <jlee> Can anyone here help me getting psycopg2 installed?
[11:26] <jlee> ubuntuEdgy: yes
[11:26] <jlee> ubuntuEdgy: cd where you want to link to
[11:26] <theacolyte> noelferreira: probably, without taking a look at it
[11:26] <ubuntugrl> i have linux installed on my notebook pc. my computer gets so hot i can hardly keep it on my lap. when i run windows, it never gets this hot. is there a way I can tell if the fan is cooling off the pc when it should?
[11:27] <nexous> jlee: okay, I'll have a look.
[11:27] <jlee> ubuntuEdgy: ln -s /home/user/from_file name_of_to_file
[11:27] <whta> why does it take 5 or so minutes for me to log out?
[11:27] <Flannel> noelferreira: No.  You should ask in #ubuntu+1, that's the Feisty support channel.  Half the Edgy stuff isn't likely to be relevant to Feisty.
[11:27] <jlee> this room is just about to busy...
[11:27] <aragorn> rf
[11:27] <aragorn> ciao
[11:27] <aragorn> hello
[11:27] <madhatter349> anybody here that could help me with mythtv on ubuntu
[11:27] <uplinked> ubuntugrl, I don't have an exact link for you, but it sounds like cpu frequency scaling is off. Google for "ubuntu cpu scaling" + your laptop model, and you'll probably get results.
[11:28] <harry__> Is there a way to upgrade Edgy to Feisty beta using a package manager or something?
[11:28] <jlee> harry__: yes, but I don't know how.
[11:28] <Pricey> !upgrade | harry__ (see pm from ubotu)
[11:28] <noelferreira> they don't anwer my question
[11:28] <__hase> Is there a way I can toggle my mouse on and off with a hotkey?  I have a trackpad and it's really hard to type sometimes
[11:28] <ubotu> harry__ (see pm from ubotu): For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes
[11:28] <Pricey> gah :(
[11:28] <nexous> jlee: is tabstop the same as ts?
[11:28] <jlee> I think so nexous

[11:29] <madhatter349> E: mythtv-database: subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 1
[11:29] <jlee> nexous I also have a .vim dir with tons of sub vim scripts
[11:29] <madhatter349> and E: mythtv: dependency problems - leaving unconfigured
[11:29] <madhatter349> what should i do
[11:29] <whta> why does it take 5 or so minutes for me to log out?
[11:30] <nexous> jlee: any happen to be PHP?
[11:31] <jlee> Maybe
[11:31] <lillrazor> does anyone have a suggestion for an good ftp client with support for ssl? I have tried kftp grabber already but didnt like it :/

[11:33] <Matt101> hello
[11:33] <madhatter349> hey anybody here know naything about mythtv
[11:33] <ompaul> the bot does
[11:34] <ompaul> !mythtv
[11:34] <ubotu> MythTV is a TV framework for Linux - Instructions for using with Ubuntu at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MythTV
[11:34] <sirkism> why can i see my wireless connection, but it won't connect
[11:34] <uplinked> ompaul, think he was asking for help. Sorry, madhatter349, i have no idea how to fix your issues
[11:34] <FunnyLookinHat> Are there any open source utilities to convert a divx file to dvd format for burning?
[11:34] <sirkism> i've tried to use wpa and wep encryption but nothing would pass until i turned it off completely
[11:35] <sirkism> keys would match, I would see it in the network listing
[11:35] <jlee> nexous: http://www.zertis.net/~jlee/vim.tar.gz
[11:35] <sirkism> !install
[11:35] <ubotu> Ubuntu can be installed in lots of ways. Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation for documentation. Problems during install? See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CommonProblemsInstall and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DapperReleaseNotes/UbiquityKnownIssues - See also !automate
[11:35] <ompaul> uplinked, k
[11:35] <Matt101> haveing this problem for the first time
[11:36] <nexous> jlee: forgot to ask you but, where is that file located on my laptop?
[11:36] <jlee> ubuntuEdgy: man scp
[11:36] <whta> anyone around yet that can tell me why it takes so damn long for me to return to the login screen?
[11:36] <theacolyte> !repeat whta
[11:36] <serengeti> hello :) I've just noticed I'm not able to attach a file from a smb share to a gmail message in firefox, has anything been changed in the file open dialog? i'm using feisty
[11:36] <jlee> /home/nexous/.vimrc is the text file
[11:36] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about repeat whta - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[11:36] <Matt101> When I put a Data CD in my CD Rom it says. Unable to mount the selected volume
[11:36] <theacolyte> !repeat | whta
[11:36] <ubotu> whta: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. You can search https://help.ubuntu.com or http://wiki.ubuntu.com while you wait. Also see !patience
[11:36] <madhatter349> ya im getting errors i was already on that page
[11:36] <uplinked> Slightly offtopic, but I was thinking- When Ubuntu hits version 8, how about naming it "Hungry Hungry Hippo"?
[11:36] <jlee> /home/nexous/.vim is the directory that you need to make from that tarball
[11:36] <serengeti> i think network servers used to be listed in the bookmarks list
[11:36] <nexous> okay thanks.
[11:36] <jlee> no problem nexous
[11:36] <um_whoa> !patience
[11:36] <ubotu> The people in this channel are volunteers. Your attitude will determine how fast you are helped. See also http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines
[11:36] <whta> ha ok sorry guys. i can be a bit impatient ;o
[11:36] <serengeti> but they're no longer there..
[11:36] <Matt101> must be superuser to use mount
[11:36] <nexous> jlee: what is included in that direcotyr that i make?
[11:37] <ompaul>  scp user@machine1:/path/to/file otheruserOrTheSameUser@machine2:/target/path/to/file
[11:37] <jlee> everything you extract form the tarball I sent nexous
[11:37] <um_whoa> scp = secure copy?
[11:37] <nexous> jlee: I currently have a directory named syntax in there with my php.vim, but I have.
[11:37] <jlee> to extract it nexous just run the command "tar -xvzf vim.tar.gz"
[11:37] <jlee> um_whoa: yes
[11:38] <ompaul> madhatter349, so you need to tell people (not me as I don't do mythtv) what version of ubuntu and front end back end or whatever other part the compile breaks at
[11:38] <jlee> nexous "in there" "in where???"
[11:38] <madhatter349> im using the newst ubuntu version
[11:38] <nexous> jlee: "syntax" dir is in .vim
[11:39] <madhatter349> and im trying to install mythtv-database threw the Synaptic Package Manager
[11:39] <nexous> jlee: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/12659/ is what I'm gonna use.
[11:39] <nexous> jlee: where do I put all of that?
[11:39] <uplinked> madhatter349, see, "The Newest" doesn't necessarily mean anything. There's "the absolute newest", and "the newest stable version", as well as "the newest Long-Term-Support" version. Dapper, Edgy or Feisty, do you know?
[11:40] <jlee> ok
[11:40] <jlee> they shouldn't affect each other, unless they have the same file name
[11:40] <jlee> nexous the pastebin is a pastebin of my .vimrc file
[11:40] <madhatter349> i dont know
[11:41] <jlee> nexous you can use all of it, if you use my .vim folder, but if you don't , then pick and chose what you want
[11:41] <noelferreira> i have other question. do you know why my ra1 wireless don't connect at start up? i need to open a console and run dhclient ra1 manually every time
[11:41] <nexous> jlee: oh wait, wrong link i think.
[11:41] <jlee> nexous they are all settings you can turn on while using vim, but I have them get turned on by default
[11:41] <dm> anyone here plays tremulous?
[11:41] <jlee> nexous http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/12654/
[11:41] <nexous> jlee: nvm it's right.
[11:41] <jlee> nexous, yeah you did have the wrong link, you had an error I pasted
[11:42] <jlee> make sure you are using http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/12654/ nexous
[11:42] <nexous> jlee: Mines differnet, because i'm going to use php highlighting rather Python
[11:42] <nexous> jlee: Be Right Back.
[11:42] <harry__> are there books I can get that tell me how to use Ubuntu (& Linux in general) from the more basic stuff up to the more advanced UNIX functions like servers etc?
[11:42] <nexous> Back.
[11:42] <jlee> I think mine is smart enough to match the file extention so I have php python sql bash, diff, doesn't matter
[11:43] <nexous> jlee: I'm just wondering the file I posted on pastebin, where am I saving it to?
[11:43] <yell0w> harry__, there is
[11:44] <yell0w> harry__, go to amazon.com, search ubuntu, there should be 2
[11:44] <jlee> The file you pasted? what did you paste nexous?
[11:44] <jlee> I'm sorry nexous, I didn't realize you pasted something, I thought you were talking about what I pasted.
[11:44] <bonthegeek> ubuntu linux for non-geeks is basic but good.
[11:44] <nexous> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/12659/ it is a mix of PEAR Standards vim and PHP Highlighting VIM
[11:44] <Vaske_Car> how to unpack .CAB files?
[11:44] <nexous> The first part is what you gave me.
[11:44] <ada`ubuntu_> Vaske_Car, cabextract I believe
[11:45] <nexous> jlee: nah, something different.
[11:45] <jlee> ah, well to tell you the truth, I don't think you'll need that anymore
[11:45] <jlee> just keep it backed up incase
[11:45] <nexous> jlee: okay, but where am i storing the file?
[11:46] <PiNE_> i use vlc player with nvidia twinview and i like vic a lot but when i switch to fullscreen it always jumps to the first monitor.  how would i get it to fullscreen on whichever monitor i have the player?
[11:46] <jlee> the one I pasted? it becomes your ".vimrc" file in your user home foler, example /home/nexous/.vimrc
[11:46] <nexous> oh okay.
[11:46] <jlee> then right next to it nexous, goes the .vim folder I sent you
[11:47] <jlee> Arf yourslef gord
[11:48] <nexous> jlee: sorry didn't get the vim folder.
[11:48] <ubuntuEdgy> any way to exit a terminal when it dose this ">"
[11:48] <albacker> can i edit .avi/mpg files with kino
[11:48] <PiNE_> is anyone familiar with vlc?
[11:48] <jlee> it was the download I sent
[11:48] <jlee> arg, I'll get it again
[11:49] <nexous> jlee: nevermind it's working.
[11:49] <jlee> nexous:  http://www.zertis.net/~jlee/vim.tar.gz
[11:49] <ada`ubuntu_> What is this 'generic' kernel about? Shall I install 686 for Celeron-M?
[11:49] <jlee> nexous, download that extract it and put it right next to the .vimrc file
[11:49] <nexous> jlee: opkay.
[11:49] <madhatter349> anybody here use mythtv
[11:49] <jlee> nexous so if you were to ls the directory you'd see .vim and .vimrc side by side
[11:49] <nexous> okay.
[11:49] <jlee> brb
[11:50] <jlee> back
