[17:45] <dusko> Hello guys, I have just installed unbuntu 8.10,  and have Never used it before. I have downloaded a program called hellanzb and "installed it" but I can`t find it. I am used to vista and exe files... :) can some one help???
[17:46] <zipper> On a fresh install i'm having trouble installing the ATI restricted drivers. The download never gets further than 0%, no errors given. The restricted drivers for b43 installed without problems tho. Any ideas?

[17:47] <whut> lithixium: Thanks a lot, as for KDE4.2, I've been already advised at #kubuntu
[17:47] <zipper> innociv: there is an app called baeboa or something like that. Try google for "linux disk usage analyser"

[17:48] <dusko> Hello guys, I have just installed unbuntu 8.10,  and have Never used it before. I have downloaded a program called hellanzb and "installed it" but I can`t find it. I am used to vista and exe files... :) can some one help??? PLEASE!!!
[17:48] <zipper> innociv: There is a gui, but i *think* there is a console version as well. Not sure, never used it myself
[17:48] <skeebo> Does anyone know if it is safe to defrag my FAT32 external drive on my Windows XP VM? I want to make sure before I do it. Any help is much appreciated, thanks.
[17:48] <platypus_> Scunizi, I updated the driver, we'll see if that works
[17:48] <platypus_> thanks for the heads up on the new revision
[17:49] <platypus_> looks like there's quite a bit of bug fixes in the changelog though none that apply to my specific problem
[17:49] <dusko> I have did`t in vista, no problem
[17:49] <zipper> innociv: if you haven't tried already, there might be an argument to 'du' to show only folders without subfolders
[17:49] <innociv> ahh yeah du that's it
[17:49] <skeebo> or is there an appropriate channel to ask my question besides here?
[17:49] <Pici> dusko: That is a command line interface application. Just run hellanzb from a terminal.
[17:49] <platypus_> skeebo, what's the question
[17:50] <skeebo>  Does anyone know if it is safe to defrag my FAT32 external drive on my Windows XP VM? I want to make sure before I do it. Any help is much appreciated, thanks.
[17:50] <platypus_> what do you want to defrag it for?
[17:50] <zipper> On a fresh install i'm having trouble installing the ATI restricted drivers. The download never gets further than 0%, no errors given. The restricted drivers for b43 installed without problems tho. Any ideas?
[17:50] <hbit> Hello guys, I compiled an application and now there's a new version wich I want to upgrade to. Should I uninstall the old version first? if so how? is there a way to just upgrade the new code?
[17:50] <platypus_> zipper, are you behind a proxy?
[17:51] <skeebo> because its a FAT32 FS on my external drive, and I'm constantly adding and moving large files
[17:51] <skeebo> platypus_:
[17:51] <zipper> platypus_: no
[17:51] <platypus_> sorry skeebo i think it'd be ok but im not a windows guy so i hesitate to give bad advice
[17:51] <c0p3rn1c> does anyone know a great tool to create business diagrams ?
[17:51] <platypus_> zipper, have you tried adding different mirrors to your apt sources
[17:51] <dusko> oki, I`am new :) I don`t know what to write :)
[17:51] <zcat[1]> c0p3rn1c, dia ?
[17:52] <platypus_> zipper, are you using a gui package manager or the cli
[17:52] <zcat[1]> !info dia
[17:52] <skeebo> platypus_: dont like windows myself, just have it running on a virtual machine and was hoping its safe to defrag external drives mounted to it is all
[17:52] <skeebo> ty though
[17:52] <zipper> platypus_: the restricted (multiverse,universe?) repos should be enabled
[17:52] <platypus_> zipper, perhaps the repo you're using is having an issue
[17:53] <zipper> platypus_: i'm using the hardware driver gui thingie. Couldn't figure out which package its trying to fetch
[17:53] <zipper> if you know, i might get a proper error message from the cli
[17:54] <Scunizi> platypus_: I just installed the latest driver and it's much snappyier than the .22 driver
[17:54] <platypus_> zipper, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/ATI#Instructions%20for%20Ubuntu%208.04%20(Hardy)%20with%20ATi%208.443.1-1%20and%20above%20binary%20drivers
[17:54] <platypus_> try that
[17:54] <platypus_> its a manual way outside the repo
[17:54] <platypus_> it might help you narrow down your problem
[17:55] <platypus_> Scunizi, it seems to draw windows much better, you are correct
[17:55] <bpatterson_> I'm running nfs-user-server in Ubuntu 8.10 (i386) and trying to mount a share on an ubuntu 8.04 (x64) server.   I get an access denied error.  Relevant files: http://paste.ubuntu.com/117353/
[17:55] <platypus_> there is not as much of a lag when dragging windows either
[17:55] <zcat[1]> Just a quick question about deb packages (I know, I should probably research this but it's only a quick question) .. they contain 'pre-install/post-install' scripts, right? And they're run as root. If someone were to make a 'malicious' package and convince another user to install it, is there anything in the package management that prevents these scripts from doing 'malicious' actions?
[17:55] <alesan> hi where can I ask about the Ubuntu for ARM?
[17:56] <uni4dfx> why doesn't this command execute if i put it in /etc/rc.local:     echo -en "\xf0\x00\x20\x21\x61\x00\x00\x00\x7f\x00\xf7" > /dev/snd/midiC0D1
[17:56] <Scunizi> platypus_: that's what I notice,  for me almost doubled the screen writes.. performance now is close to what I expect on a mid level dual core w/ 4 gigs of ram
[17:56] <mgolisch> zcat[1]: dont think so
[17:56] <platypus_> Scunizi, i'm just on this default issued craptacular work workstation and it's noticeably better, i hate this video card too
[17:56] <mgolisch> zcat[1]: basicaly those are just shellscripts
[17:57] <Scunizi> zcat[1]: nope.. because you authorized it with sudo
[17:57] <zipper> platypus_: i went to that guide already, and it doesnt really explain which package the hardware driver tool is trying to get. I'd prefer to use the repos for this as i dont need great performance or bleeding edge functionality
[17:57] <fomder> Hi everyone. Im having a lot of trouble. I use ubuntu 8.10 and just uninstalled firestarter firewall and then reboot my pc. Now my ineternet connection doesnt work. ifconfig shows i have a valid ip but no data transfer works, firefox, im applications, voip apps, etc. Could anyone please help ? thanks
[17:57] <Scunizi> platypus_: which card do you have?
[17:57] <platypus_> zipper, well unfortunately the gui isnt showing you what is going wrong
[17:58] <platypus_> Scunizi, some nvidia quadro fx series with the proprietary dongle that has two monitor outs
[17:58] <mgolisch> fomder: does iptables --list output anything interesting?
[17:59] <whut> I was installing a package using sudo apt-get install <name>, but the downloading was interrupted. Now, every time I try to do sudo apt-get install <name>, it uses that faulty .deb package. How can I force apt-get to re-download the package?
[17:59] <platypus_> zipper, what kind of card do you get
[17:59] <platypus_> get = have
[17:59] <uni4dfx> anyone know why echo commands won't execute from rc.local ?
[17:59] <JoelDrapper> Hey, Can someone help me with a wireless problem?
[17:59] <Scunizi> platypus_: ah.. I have a board with the nvidia 8200 chipset and onboard video.. with 177 driver I could have beat screen writes with a 7 year old celeron, 180.11 got better and .22 better still.. .29 well you see the difference.  well worth installing.
[17:59] <fomder> mgolische, ill paste it somewhere, thanks
[17:59] <platypus_> cool
[18:00] <zipper> platypus_: radeon 200M, laptop card
[18:00] <mgolisch> whut: delete it from the package download cache.. should be /var/cache/apt/something
[18:00] <JoelDrapper> I'm very new to ubuntu, I've installed the hardware drivers, but it keeps asking me for a password, and then not accepting it.
[18:00] <mgolisch> JoelDrapper: what password?
[18:00] <JoelDrapper> for the wireless network
[18:01] <JoelDrapper> Even after I disabled the wep password on the network
[18:01] <mgolisch> JoelDrapper: probably you entered it wrong or selected the wrong encryption/key type
[18:01] <fomder> mgolisch http://pastebin.com/d355bdbb5
[18:01] <absynth> whut: try #apt-get -f install     this should fix brocken packages and stuff
[18:01] <platypus_> zipper, what ati card do you have
[18:01] <DarthPidgin> JoelDrapper,  you can add yourt username to the sudoers list when you log in as root
[18:01] <mgolisch> fomder: try sudo iptables -F and see if iptables --list looks different after that
[18:02] <mgolisch> fomder: id it does try if your internets works then
[18:02] <zipper> platypus_: a radeon 200M, a laptop card
[18:02] <whut> absynth: Thanks.
[18:03] <JoelDrapper> Why would it still ask for a password even if there wasn't one?
[18:03] <JoelDrapper> And the light won't turn on at the front of my computer.
[18:03] <mgolisch> JoelDrapper: it probably didnt detect that change yet
[18:03] <tARrAScH> Hello, Is there any good reason that the latest verson of OO.org isn't in the repos? I can understand we waited for 3.0.1. But what's the delay now? Is it a good idea to upgrade manually?
[18:03] <JoelDrapper> I've restarted, and tried this several times
[18:03] <PMEDUB> Need Ndiswrapper help. can anyone help me find the windows driver for my card?  I am going crazy ;(
[18:03] <mgolisch> PMEDUB: look at their wiki
[18:04] <fomder> mgolisch, cleared ip tables, still no luck though
[18:04] <lithixium> tARrAScH, I doubt there are any *good* reasons
[18:04] <fomder> is a reboot necessary mgolisch
[18:04] <uni4dfx> right, i'll just go spam the forum then
[18:04] <mgolisch> JoelDrapper: see if networkmanager saved a profile for that network and delete it
[18:04] <mgolisch> fomder: what doesnt work?
[18:05] <platypus_> zipper_, apparently there is a big following on the net for support for the 200m
[18:05] <mgolisch> fomder: check if its name resolution or realy the connections beeing blocked
[18:05] <JoelDrapper> I went into the wireless troubleshooting guide in the help files, and when I do this command, sudo lshw -C network, it doesn't show any status of the wireless driver.
[18:05] <tARrAScH> lithixium: Ok, it's both upparts and downparts. But do you think the repos will be updated soon anyway?
[18:05] <mib> anyone can suggest me a good messenger which i could use for chatting+viewing webcam + sending file on ubuntu
[18:05] <platypus_> as the only people who have gotten it to work are using non supported drivers for that card
[18:05] <fomder> mgolisch my internet.. Sorry i didnt understand what i should do /check next?
[18:05] <zipper_> platypus_: sorry bout that, got disconnected. Wierd, b43 was pretty stable under arch. Its a radeon 200m.
[18:05] <JoelDrapper> mgolisch: I'll try that
[18:05] <DarthPidgin> mib, pidgin!
[18:05] <mib> DarthPidgin
[18:06] <mib> i used pidgin but it can only support chatting at the moment
[18:06] <zipper_> platypus_: cool, thats good to know. I'll try another repo first, might be as simple as the repo being offline (as you said earlier)
[18:06] <JoelDrapper> I can't find the network manager now
[18:06] <JoelDrapper> is there a way to run it again?
[18:06] <lithixium> tARrAScH, It'll probably go into backports eventually, but I would say it's low priority
[18:06] <i0n_696> Has anyone messed with the Asus Netbooks?
[18:06] <DarthPidgin> mib, cam sorry didn't read well. Euh... don't really dare to say it here... skype
[18:06] <mgolisch> fomder: try ping google.com, does it resolve to an ip address? if not try telnet <IP_ADDRESS> 80 and see if that connects
[18:06] <alexxandros> heloo
[18:06] <lithixium> especially when there's a PPA available with the packages in
[18:07] <platypus_> zipper_, you might read this too
[18:07] <unanxbt> The volume in ubuntu 8.10 is too low, is this bug or something else

[18:07] <spych3r> how do i upgrade to kde 4.2 from kde 4.1 in ubuntu?
[18:07] <JesperHa> Hello, how do I find out which packages I have upgrades today? The system froze up while upgrading some packages and now the network manager wont show up because of missing default settings.
[18:08] <lithixium> spych3r, Add the KDE repo and dist-upgrade

[18:10] <DarthPidgin> mib, i mean the older versions
[18:10] <JoelDrapper> Why would the wireless light on the front of my laptop not go on?
[18:10] <mib> which version ?
[18:10] <kinley> alexcandros: faad -o - input.m4a | lame - output.mp3
[18:10] <zipper_> platypus_: hmm. I dont believe the problem is with hardware support as i had it running in 8.04 with the driver in the repo, and in arch linux with the binary blob from ati.com
[18:10] <platypus_> ah
[18:11] <platypus_> these posts are older so perhaps it has been fixed
[18:11] <alexxandros> what do u mean?? sry..
[18:11] <platypus_> this was back with FC4/5 era
[18:11] <zipper_> dunno if thats a long time agro, never tried fedora =)
[18:11] <DarthPidgin> I don't know. It's a long time ago since iI used it, and I don't know what was supported
[18:11] <platypus_> yeah it is awhile ago :P
[18:12] <platypus_> off for now, good luck zipper_
[18:12] <mib> so you mean it supported all i mentioned
[18:12] <kinley> alexxandros: for more than one file : use in terminal: for file in *.m4a; do faad -o - "$file" | lame -V2 - "$(basename "$file" .m4a).mp3"; rm "$file"; done
[18:13] <unanxbt> JesperHa, mixers are at their top!
[18:13] <DarthPidgin> mib, I don't remember the cam
[18:13] <mib> oh
[18:13] <mgolisch> fomder: still there?
[18:14] <JesperHa> unanxbt, ok
[18:14] <kinley> alexxandros: if you want to keep yout mp4 files use : alexxandros: for more than one file : use in terminal: for file in *.m4a; do faad -o - "$file" | lame -V2 - "$(basename "$file" .m4a).mp3";  done
[18:16] <DarthPidgin> mib, you can try a couple of these: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_XMPP_client_software. that's as far as I can help
[18:17] <jomder> Hi everyone. Im having some huge problems. I just uninstalled firestarter firewall and then reboot my 8.10 pc. now my internet connection does not work. ifconfig shows i have a valid ip but nothing internet related works. What can i do Thanks.
[18:17] <Myrtti> jomder: firestarter is a frontend to iptables
[18:17] <sathyrion> jomder, remove firestarter :)
[18:17] <Myrtti> jomder: check what rules firestarter left behind
[18:18] <jomder> myrtii how can i do that ? im pretty sure i deleted my iptables...
[18:18] <Myrtti> jomder: you mean you deleted your iptables rules?
[18:18] <jomder> myrtti i believe i did so manual, yes
[18:18] <DarthPidgin> jomder, remove firestarter install guarddog :)
[18:19] <Myrtti> jomder: check what output you get when you do "sudo iptables -L"

[18:22] <Anonymous1> ubuntu-desktop is a metapackage

[18:26] <lore20> hello
[18:27] <tom___> danbhfive: Well, it sort of is support.
[18:27] <Anonymous1> I have a GTX 260 on ubuntu 8.10 with a westinghouse monitor, and the monitor's colours are horrendous, accompanied by a crackling noise. This only occurs with the proprietary driver. Anyone know what to do?
[18:27] <lore20> how to use a bluetooth headphone with intrepid?
[18:27] <tom___> diginux: Distributed binaries without distributing the source is infringing GPL right?
[18:27] <diginux> tom___: as long as the source is available it is ok
[18:27] <tom___> diginux: And, say, 8.04-amd64-desktop.iso contains binaries.
[18:27] <jussel> My soundcard isn't working as I want to. I do have sound out my Laptop boxes, but not through my Headphone. Enabled everything on the mixer... Ubuntu version: 8.04 Desktop // Soundcard: Realtek ALC660-VD     -- Anyone knows the solution?
[18:27] <anthiste> wow how many idlers are there (O.o)
[18:28] <ailean> hi, i can't get my software sources to appear in synaptic. can someone help?
[18:28] <Anonymous1> Did you try looking through volume preferences?
[18:28] <tom___> diginux: I think they have to be equally accessible, meaning there has to be a source torrent. I'm guessing Cononical lawyers have considered this though.
[18:28] <mib> how could i check the path of the drive tht i want to mount ?
[18:28] <Anonymous1> ailean: try a different server in Administration/Software Sources
[18:28] <danbhfive> tom___: come on, no it isn't.  If you want the source, just get it with apt-source.  If you want to speculate about legal issues, you should take it to offtopic
[18:28] <Anonymous1> I use rafal
[18:28] <ailean> Anonymous1, it won't load
[18:29] <ge0rge007> hello!
[18:29] <ailean> Anonymous1, thatś what i want to do
[18:29] <anthiste> bleh any1 here got a moment
[18:29] <Anonymous1> And you can't?
[18:29] <diginux> tom___: all canonical has to do is have a written offer that they will make the source code available on a cd for a fee that covers the distribution costs
[18:29] <Anonymous1> Try running gksudo software-sources in terminal
[18:29] <arvind_khadri> !ask | anthiste
[18:29] <Anonymous1> I think that's the command, at work right now
[18:29] <jussel> Anonymous1: Yep, I did.
[18:30] <mib> how can i check the partition that i wanted to mount ?
[18:30] <anthiste> thanks :) do you know how to get wubi going with vista
[18:30] <wisnut> lithixium: thx again - got my 8.04.1 with matching md5's - have a fantastic day!
[18:30] <Anonymous1> Hm, what's the output jussel
[18:30] <arvind_khadri> !wubi | anthiste
[18:30] <tom___> diginux: I don't think that's true. And even if it is, then it still infringes on the privacy. People may not want to give their address.
[18:30] <lithixium> wisnut, no probs, happy bug hunting :D
[18:30] <jussel> Anonymous1: Just a normal one, like a headphone one. Don't know the exact name

[18:32] <Spellweaver> http://www.alsa-project.org
[18:32] <intmed> any good download manager, it should itegrate with Firefox 3
[18:32] <tom___> diginux: GPLv2, let's say.
[18:32] <Spellweaver> Do you have experience compiling?
[18:32] <diginux> tom___: then you are right

[18:33] <neoblackdragon> salve a tutti? ho un problemino posso?
[18:33] <dayo2> Spellweaver: i've disabled pulseaudio, rather than installing. one things i've noticed, and reproduced partially just now, was this: after using rhythmbox, when i come back out of Suspend, rbox crashes
[18:33] <Jussel> Not really, I'm pretty new to Ubuntu
[18:33] <arvind_khadri> mib... what do you want to do?
[18:33] <Jussel> Since Spellweaver left, here my question again.
[18:33] <neoblackdragon> italian?
[18:33] <Jussel> My soundcard isn't working as I want to. I do have sound out my Laptop boxes, but not through my Headphone. Enabled everything on the mixer... Ubuntu version: 8.04 Desktop // Soundcard: Realtek ALC660-VD     -- Anyone knows the solution?
[18:33] <dayo2> Spellweaver: as a matter of fact *all* sound is gone. force-quitting rbox and restarting doesn't help.
[18:33] <wikkedfin> Does any know if Ubuntu comes with an App to make Greeting Cards?
[18:34] <lore20> neoblackdragon: ==> #ubuntu-it
[18:34] <mib> arvind, i have an extra partition to be mounted as a drive .previously i did edit the fstab but upon restarting my pc, i couldnt access to that drive.
[18:34] <Jussel> Anyone? =l
[18:34] <mib> now i cant recall how to check the exact path of the partition that i wanted to mount to
[18:34] <dayo2> Spellweaver: but now after disabling pulse and setting to alsa, coming back from Suspend still finds a crashed rbox, but restarting rbox helps, and other sounds are still available.
[18:34] <dayo2> wikkedfin: gimp
[18:34] <taz> ???
[18:34] <whut> apt-get install keeps using the package that was only partially downloaded. =(
[18:35] <arvind_khadri> whut: sudo apt-get install -f
[18:35] <arvind_khadri> !appdb | taz
[18:35] <mustangg> I was (still :) ) wondering if anyone could tell me from where does the installer grab the hostname for the network configuration stage of install.
[18:35] <jiffe92> I have a program I want to make a package of, it is a commercial program that has an install process, I'll need to be able to track what files are created, anyone know a good way to do this?
[18:36] <Jussel> My soundcard isn't working as I want to. I do have sound out my Laptop boxes, but not through my Headphone. Enabled everything on the mixer... Ubuntu version: 8.04 Desktop // Soundcard: Realtek ALC660-VD     -- Anyone knows the solution?
[18:36] <wikkedfin> hehe
[18:36] <diginux> Jussel: did the headphones work before?
[18:36] <anouar_> hello
[18:36] <jiffe92> this isn't a package for distribution, just ease of installation
[18:36] <ge0rge007> is there any way to solve the problem with amdpcsdb.default?
[18:36] <lithixium> whut, do an apt-get clean then dist-upgrade
[18:36] <arvind_khadri> !pm | taz

[18:37] <anouar_> hello
[18:37] <naxa> i am trying to install hungarian language files but when generating hu_HU.UTF-8 it allways says segmentation fault. Other charsets says "up-to-date" and this is the last one, exits with segfault. this is also the case with locale-gen
[18:37] <oCean_> mib: what partition, what filesystem, what's the entry in fstab?
[18:37] <diginux> Jussel: i meant, has the headphone jack worked on your laptop before?
[18:37] <Jussel> diginux: Yup, they do work on Windows 7 / Vista / XP etc.
[18:38] <diginux> Jussel: what kind of soundcard is it again?
[18:38] <neoblackdragon> ci sono italiani?

[18:38] <oCean_> mustangg: at what point you see that the installer has found a hostname? In the who-are-you screen?
[18:38] <mib> Ocean, i created an extra partition and previousl entry in fstab is /dev/sda2    /media/storage    ext3    users,exec,rw,umask=000 0 0
[18:39] <aitux> hi all
[18:39] <lore20> fabio: neoblackdragon: fatela finita di fare figure di ***** in sto canale e andate su #ubuntu-it o #ubuntu-it-chat
[18:39] <diginux> Jussel: so in alsa do you have a thing labeled headphones? if so, is it a volume bar, or just a little square box and says under Item: Headphone Jack Sense
[18:39] <whut> apt-get -f doesn't help.
[18:39] <whut> apt-get clean doesn't help.

[18:42] <^hashbang^> hi jussel
[18:42] <Jussel> diginux: thanks, I'll try it
[18:42] <oCean_> mib: make sure what filesystem is on /dev/sda2 "sudo fdisk -l /dev/sda"
[18:42] <Jussel> diginux: bash: /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base: Permission denied
[18:42] <oCean_> Mba7eth: sure, np
[18:42] <diginux> Jussel: sudo nano -w /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base
[18:44] <mib> oCean: it shows Linux system
[18:44] <LeoWei> is it possible if installation done by copying the files in ubuntu?
[18:44] <LeoWei> am using ubuntu 8.04
[18:45] <Jussel> diginux: done, Reboot now, I guess?
[18:45] <mib> http://pastebin.ca/1335044
[18:45] <oCean_> mib: you know it's ext3?
[18:45] <fosco__> LeoWei, not sure to understand, but you can not install ubuntu by just copying the installation files
[18:45] <diginux> Jussel: yeah, there might be a way to have it take effect without reboot, but i dont know how
[18:45] <Cruster> hi all, I have a problem with  ac adapter not being recognized as plugged in (ac adapter folder empty in /proc/acpi)
[18:45] <mib> Ocean_ : so what should i do next
[18:45] <Jussel> diginux: No problem, I'll reboot it, and brb in the channel, thanks ;)
[18:46] <^hashbang^> what config file in ubuntu manages the init runlevels?
[18:46] <oCean_> mib: what does "sudo mount -t ext3 /dev/sda2 /media/storage" say? What is the exact error?
[18:46] <whut> Please, can someone help me?
[18:46] <ramontayag> can you update an attribute and skip filters?
[18:46] <fabio> /etc/inittab i think
[18:46] <^hashbang^> fabio: nope, I thought that tooo.
[18:46] <ramontayag> gah sorry wrong room
[18:47] <mib> Ocean: no error seen when i did sudo mount -t ext3 /dev/sda2 /media/storage
[18:47] <^hashbang^> oh fedora/redhat it its /etc/inittab but I don't find that on ubuntu
[18:47] <fabio> there is boot-up manager
[18:47] <oCean_> mib: oke, so it's mounted atm? Then there might be a typo in fstab?
[18:47] <LeoWei> fosco__ : what i mean is installing programs such as ip detects
[18:47] <_2> mib "ls /media/storage -ld
[18:47] <mib> now its mounted atm..
[18:47] <fabio> it's named bum
[18:48] <mib> drwxr-xr-x 5 mib mib 4096 2009-02-06 00:31 /media/storage/
[18:48] <Pici> ^hashbang^: Thats because we use upstart, see http://upstart.ubuntu.com/
[18:48] <_2> mib ok looks like you own it.
[18:48] <fabio> i know: /etc/event.d
[18:48] <^hashbang^> Pici: cool, thank you. Fabio: awasome thanks
[18:48] <abhinay> ^hashbang^, hello hashbang :)
[18:48] <abhinay> what's up?
[18:48] <mib> so how should i ensure its mounted all the time?
[18:49] <diginux> jussel: any luck?
[18:49] <jussel> diginux: It didn't work. I Rebooted my PC, And the headphone is still not working.
[18:49] <oCean_> mib: I checked your fstab entry again. Weird... that really seems ok
[18:49] <^hashbang^> hi there abhinay
[18:49] <diginux> jussel: ok, replace that line i had you put in with tehse two lines: options snd-hda-intel enable=1 index=0 model=lenovo
[18:49] <diginux> alias snd-card-0 snd-hda-intel
[18:49] <fosco__> LeoWei, still don't understand, to install programas in ubuntu just use the package manager (apt-get, aptitude, synaptic or adept)
[18:49] <mib> Ocean_ : what goes wrong actually
[18:49] <dremits> hey how can i configure grub to load windows xp by default instead of ubuntu
[18:49] <jussel> diginux: thanks, I'll try it.
[18:49] <_2> mib add a line in fstab "/dev/sda2 /media/storage ext3 defaults 0 0"
[18:49] <oCean_> mib: That's what we've to find out
[18:49] <diginux> jussel: you using 32-bit or 64-bit ubuntu?
[18:49] <LeoWei> very hard..
[18:50] <oCean_> mib: unmount the drive "sudo umount /media/storage"
[18:50] <mib> Ocean: should i remove the last line previously before replacing the new one?
[18:50] <LeoWei> the programs is in tar.bz archive
[18:50] <oCean_> mib: than modify your line in /etc/fstab
[18:50] <jussel> diginux: 32-bit // 8.04 Desktop edition // Completely updated, i386 Version thing :)
[18:50] <oCean_> mib: what do you mean? removing line?
[18:50] <fosco__> LeoWei, so, read the README and or INSTALL files
[18:50] <_2> oCean_ where is his fstab posted?
[18:50] <diginux> jussel: ok, so try those two lines, reboot, and lets se what happens
[18:50] <fabio> Completely updated -> outdated
[18:51] <oCean_> _2: scroll back
[18:51] <jussel> diginux: Two lines? Copy/pasted your line, and it does appear as one line.
[18:51] <_2> oCean_ just got here.  you scroll back
[18:51] <mib> Oceah: i mean do i add this extra line or removing the previouly last line with /dev/sda2    /media/storage    ext3    users,exec,rw,umask=000 0 0?
[18:51] <jussel> diginux: options snd-hda-intel enable=1 index=0 model=lenovo   only?
[18:51] <oCean_> mib: you cannot have duplicate entries in /etc/fstab.
[18:51] <oCean_> mib: change your options in that line. change 'users ... 000' in 'defaults'
[18:52] <diginux> jussel: remove the line i had you put before, then add this line: options snd-hda-intel enable=1 index=0 model=lenovo
[18:52] <oCean_> _2: well, I did not mean to offend. The fstab line was pasted a couple of lines back
[18:52] <diginux> jussel: right after that, put this 2nd line: alias snd-card-0 snd-hda-intel
[18:52] <LeoWei> fosco__ dont have too...this one so complicated.. download the files from freedns.afraid.org
[18:52] <mib> ocean.i removed the /dev/sda2    /media/storage    ext3    users,exec,rw,umask=000 0 0 anf replace with /dev/sda2 /media/storage ext3 defaults 0 0
[18:52] <jussel> diginux: on a new line?
[18:52] <mib> the probvlem still persist
[18:52] <diginux> jussel: yes
[18:52] <diginux> jussel: 2 lines total
[18:52] <dremits> hey how can i configure grub to load windows xp by default instead of ubuntu
[18:52] <oCean_> mib: have you unmounted the /media/storage atm?
[18:52] <fosco__> LeoWei, no README file? then just delete that file
[18:52] <jussel> diginux:  [ Wrote 2 lines ]
[18:52] <jussel> diginux: reboot now?
[18:52] <burkmat> dremits, Edit the default option in /boot/grub/menu.lst
[18:53] <mib> yeah
[18:53] <DoYouKnow> how do I use vinagre (remote desktop) through NAT? I only see an ipv6 address on both sides, and I can't connect
[18:53] <ZummiG777> Question: I'm running Ubuntu 8.04 on a Dell Precision M6300.  This morning my nvidia driver went all funky (green and black checkerboard in the background).  Is this a known issue or am I just a regular idiot?
[18:53] <intmed> does wine support games for windows like GTA San Andreas
[18:53] <mib> i have unmounted them
[18:53] <Cruster> why isn't my ac adapter recognized when plugged-in or unlugged in ubuntu, but in mandriva i.e. works fine?
[18:53] <oCean_> mib: ok, clear. And mount -a failed again. Same error?
[18:53] <OriWB> absyth: hey, could you help me finish with the internet connection?
[18:53] <dremits> thanks
[18:53] <jussel> diginux: thanks again, I'll be right back ^^ Rebooting again
[18:53] <mib> Ocean.mount -a doesnt give me any error
[18:53] <OriWB> absynth: hey, could you help me finish with the internet connection?
[18:54] <oCean_> mib: oke :)
[18:54] <mib> then?
[18:54] <oCean_> mib: than it's mounted, right
[18:54] <_2> mib   no error, means 'no error'
[18:54] <mib> i still cant access to the mounted
[18:54] <absynth> OriWB: yea, but wait 10-15 min...telephone
[18:54] <OriWB> absynth: no prob. thanx
[18:54] <oCean_> mib: does the mounted drive show up in "mount" command?
[18:54] <mp3guy> hi, what's the easiest way to display a simple gnome message box at a specified time?
[18:54] <mib> okie
[18:55] <mib> it only works when i close the explorer and reopen again the drive
[18:55] <lechon> mp3guy, look into crontab
[18:55] <oCean_> mib: aha.
[18:55] <mib> ocean: so you mean previous entry in fstab has problem
[18:55] <mib> ?
[18:55] <DoYouKnow> so any ideas on how I can connect to a host attached via nat through vinagre?
[18:55] <mib> instead of having users,exec... we use defaults
[18:55] <lechon> intmed, just google for "wine + game title", you'll have better luck
[18:56] <burkmat> DoYouKnow, You're probably going to need port forwarding (vinagre is a VNC Client, right?)
[18:56] <_2> mib your line in fstab should look like this "/dev/sda2 /media/storage ext3 defaults 0 0"
[18:56] <whut> apt-get would install a package that is corrupt (aborted download) no matter what I do. I tried so far apt-get clean, apt-get --purge remove <packagename>, apt-get autoclean. Nothing works. What should I do?
[18:56] <jussel> diginux: Guess it isn't working.
[18:56] <mib> what is the difference of defaults and users,exec,rw,umask=000 ?
[18:56] <LeoWei> fosco_ haha.. okok..
[18:56] <oCean_> mib: yep. the 'umask' thing is for vfat etc
[18:56] <mikeyyy> hi guys, i got a problem here. need ur help. i installed cedega and launch the program. Cedega try to connect to internet to find the update but it failed because im behind proxy. how can i configure my ubuntu so that all the applications will connect through a proxy? Need help. Plzzzzzzz
[18:57] <DoYouKnow> burkmat, yes
[18:57] <oCean_> mib: so you're rockin' now right? :-)
[18:57] <DoYouKnow> burkmat, I'll try that
[18:57] <mib> yeah
[18:57] <diginux> jussel: what is the model of your computer again?
[18:57] <mib> i just cant u/s why users and defaults make difference
[18:57] <tharis20> people, I'm trying to install mono here, but when I type apt-get mono it says: "install the Windows version of Mono to run .NET executables"
[18:57] <oCean_> mib:  it's the umask thing
[18:57] <jussel> diginux: Asus X53S
[18:57] <_2> mib first of all "?mask"  is M# specific.  it will not work with other file system,  namely those that actually have permissions bits.
[18:57] <tharis20> I've installed a bunch of mono-something packs and used synaptic for others and nothing...
[18:57] <mib> oh
[18:57] <jussel> diginux: or a Asus X53   (same model, but another name for it :P )
[18:57] <oCean_> mib: that's for ntfs/vfat
[18:58] <mib> so umask doesnt work with ext3 in this case
[18:58] <oCean_> mib: indeed
[18:58] <_2> mib not in any case
[18:58] <naxa> hi... can someone help me what locale -a writes as output for me?
[18:58] <mib> i see..dint aware of.
[18:58] <diginux> jussel: im not sure what else to try at this point, have the headphones ever worked in linux?
[18:58] <DoYouKnow> burkmat, know of any good links?
[18:58] <AwaDoV> hi there
[18:58] <mikeyyy> hi guys, i got a problem here. need ur help. i installed cedega and launch the program. Cedega try to connect to internet to find the update but it failed because im behind proxy. how can i configure my ubuntu so that all the applications will connect through a proxy? Need help. Plzzzzzz
[18:59] <taz> hello how i will know what Wine version  ?? where i can find it ??
[18:59] <Gnea> naxa: only you can determine that
[18:59] <DoYouKnow> burkmat, I tried uncommenting out the line in sysctl for NAT, that says something like ip forward
[18:59] <jussel> dixinux: Actually I never tried that. I knew that my sound wasn't working, so I thought lets try my headphones, but no luck.
[18:59] <mikeyyy> taz: type wine --version
[18:59] <jussel> diginux: The strange thing is that my normal boxes on my laptop are working, just the headphone isn't.
[18:59] <tharis20> hey, can somebody help me?
[18:59] <jussel> diginux: and the sound of my normal boxes are crap, so that why I want to use a headphone
[18:59] <burkmat> DoYouKnow, Uhm... Am I understanding you correctly that you're trying to connect to a host which is located behind a NATed router?
[18:59] <DoYouKnow> burkmat, the link I was reading said it was for nat, anyway. that's what spawned this weird issue where I can access http internet sites but not the local vnc
[18:59] <taz> where i will tpye wine -- version ??
[18:59] <DoYouKnow> burkmat, yes
[19:00] <DoYouKnow> a router running ubuntu
[19:00] <tharis20> taz, in the console
[19:00] <mib> thanks anyway Ocean and 2_
[19:00] <mikeyyy> taz: press alt+F2, type xterm. In xterm, type wine --version
[19:00] <erUSUL> !ask | tharis20
[19:00] <_2> mib welcome
[19:00] <taz>  ok stand by  and will try
[19:00] <Mba7eth> how can i extract default gateway showed by I have issue route -n command on ubuntu .... but i want to extract default gateway using awk ? how to do that ?
[19:00] <naxa> Gnea: i mean i want to know how would locale -a know what to answer. to me it seems that these are some files on my hard disk or some text in config files. i would like to know how it gets the answer for me, not what is the answer, what i know of course
[19:00] <tharis20> erUSUL, I asked the question
[19:00] <DoYouKnow> burkmat, I just want my lan routed to my ethernet, so I can plug both my ethernet and a pc into a hub
[19:00] <tharis20> nobody replied me
[19:01] <DoYouKnow> *wlan
[19:01] <erUSUL> tharis20: i see it know ;P
[19:01] <diginux> jussel: one more idea
[19:01] <jussel> diginux: Yeh? :)
[19:01] <absynth> OriWB: ok, im ready :)
[19:01] <diginux> jussel: you know how to use synaptic?
[19:01] <Gnea> naxa: aah, the best way to do that is to examine the source
[19:02] <jussel> diginux: I'm pretty new to Ubuntu. so not really
[19:02] <taz> mikeyyy  it appear with run application.. then what i will do type in ???
[19:02] <burkmat> DoYouKnow, Using IPTables?
[19:02] <diginux> jussel: ok, hold on then
[19:02] <erUSUL> tharis20: mono should be installed banshee and tomboy need it to run
[19:02] <jussel> diginux: thanks =}
[19:02] <OriWB> absynth: ok, so we were getting me connected manually
[19:02] <naxa> Gnea: thanks for the idaea, but i am sure that someon will know this :)
[19:02] <LeoWei> !ebox
[19:02] <mikeyyy> in run application, type xterm.
[19:02] <DoYouKnow> burkmat, so far I have just uncommented net.ipv4.ip_forward=1
[19:02] <Gnea> naxa: if you have deb-src identified in your sources.list, just:  sudo apt-get source belocs-locales-bin
[19:02] <Gnea> naxa: perhaps I misunderstood your question again :)
[19:03] <DoYouKnow> burkmat, will that not work?
[19:03] <naxa> will try it
[19:03] <burkmat> DoYouKnow, That's a bad idea... Means you won't be forwarding any traffic through the router. ^^
[19:03] <OriWB> absynth: but i made a discovery.My internet only really gets wierdly disconnected when I'm downloading movies
[19:03] <tharis20> erUSUL, so, I'm trying to run a Win app with wine, but it replies what I said...
[19:03] <absynth> OriWB: hmm
[19:03] <erUSUL> tharis20: well if its under wine... you will have to install the windows version of mono in wine
[19:03] <absynth> OriWB: is your signal strength good ?
[19:03] <naxa> Gnea: i would like to understand the basics of the "locale" system: what files does locale use and what config files it has and what's it's main 3 export LC_ALL and so for?
[19:04] <tharis20> erUSUL, oh, stupid, of course
[19:04] <erUSUL> tharis20: dunno if it works or not
[19:04] <burkmat> DoYouKnow, Take a look here: http://tinyurl.com/3jc2sp  Shows you how to forward a connection through the NAT box.
[19:04] <tharis20> xD
[19:04] <OriWB> absynth: eah
[19:04] <taz> mikeyyy .. seem  not work
[19:04] <OriWB> absynth: yeah
[19:04] <erUSUL> !appdb | tharis20
[19:04] <burkmat> DoYouKnow, Gotta run now, sorry. Will be back in a while though. Good luck.
[19:04] <diginux> jussel: try this, sudo apt-get install linux-backports-modules-2.6.24-16-386
[19:04] <absynth> OriWB: just put mouseicon above wlan-networkmanager icon and wait
[19:04] <mikeyyy> taz: Have you installed wine?
[19:04] <taz> yes
[19:04] <Gnea> naxa: ah okay, then yes, the source will explain and show you how all of it works
[19:04] <taz> in applications
[19:04] <OriWB> absynth: i dont understand
[19:04] <jussel> diginux: Doing that right now, thanks =)
[19:04] <absynth> OriWB: it should give you the name and behind it in brackets, the signal strength in percent
[19:04] <diginux> jussel: after its done installing, reboot again, and let me know
[19:05] <naxa> Gnea: well, if i can understand the source :)
[19:05] <jussel> diginux: Thanks, I will =)
[19:05] <taz> miketyyy yes it from add and remove
[19:05] <OriWB> absynth: ok
[19:05] <absynth> OriWB: move your mouse on the internet icon
[19:05] <OriWB> absynth: ok
[19:05] <Gnea> naxa: look for readme's and .c and .h files :) they usually have comments in them that explain, more or less, what they do
[19:05] <absynth> OriWB: and wait
[19:05] <OriWB> absynth: ok
[19:05] <DoYouKnow> burkmat, ok, I found a site. thanks
[19:05] <naxa> Gnea: I see thanks :)
[19:05] <mikeyyy> taz: You want to know what version of wine you currently used right?
[19:06] <absynth> OriWB: it should report you your connection and the signal strength
[19:06] <taz> mikeyyy  yes
[19:06] <Gnea> naxa: for instance:  less belocs-locales-bin-2.4/locale/programs/locale.c
[19:06] <OriWB> absynth: yeah it is
[19:06] <jussel> diginux: Rebooting now ;) brb.
[19:06] <absynth> OriWB: the problem is, under 60% , it could be possible that u loose the connection sometimes
[19:06] <OriWB> absynth: no its 92
[19:06] <absynth> OriWB: hmm good, better then mine ^^
[19:07] <OriWB> absynth: lol we were getting me manually connected
[19:07] <_2> any way to connect the keyboard and mouse of one box to the xserver of another box ?
[19:07] <Gnea> naxa: it might not make a whole lot of sense right away, but if you can follow and understand the comments, you should be able to figure it out :)
[19:07] <naxa> i hope so :)
[19:07] <mikeyyy> taz: go to applications --> terminal --> and type wine --version in terminal. Tell me what it says
[19:07] <absynth> OriWB:yep, but i think this doesnt make it better
[19:07] <Gnea> _2: physically, in the same room, or remotely?
[19:07] <OriWB> absynth: ok
[19:07] <OriWB> absynth: so heres another question
[19:07] <taz> ok stand by
[19:07] <naxa> now i have to go couse it is late here and i am tired
[19:07] <naxa> thanks for help!
[19:07] <naxa> bye!
[19:08] <OriWB> absynth: how do i download without risking losing my connection?
[19:08] <_2> Gnea dmz lan    and i can see the display of the other box from where i am
[19:08] <absynth> OriWB: when i understand you right, you have a connection with your AP and you have internet
[19:08] <OriWB> absynth: whats ap?
[19:08] <Gnea> _2: i would suggest either a KVM or freenx
[19:08] <absynth> OriWB: hmm i try to think, wich problem could cause this problem
[19:08] <mib> hi, if i wrre to use/install Wine, can it be installable on my ext3 drive?
[19:08] <SunnyDP> access-point
[19:09] <SunnyDP> wi-fi router !
[19:09] <taz> i found  it said 1.0.1
[19:09] <_2> Gnea i'm not wanting to put the display of the other box on this one, just control that one from here
[19:09] <absynth> OriWB: Access Point
[19:09] <absynth> OriWB: your wlan router
[19:09] <OriWB> absynth: yeah i have both
[19:09] <mikeyyy> taz: yup.  that's the version you currently use
[19:09] <Gnea> !freenx | _2
[19:09] <mikeyyy> taz: it's the latest stable version of wine
[19:09] <_2> Gnea ;/
[19:09] <jussel> diginux: I think that it isn't working.
[19:09] <Gnea> _2: it can be a bit tricky to setup, but it works
[19:09] <Gnea> _2: what?
[19:10] <intmed> what is ubuntu repository
[19:10] <taz> that mean old verson or new ??
[19:10] <OriWB> absynth: someone told me that i get disconnected if there are too many connections, and mentioned bittorent
[19:10] <jussel> diginux: But I got a application named 'PulseAudio Device Chooser' now.
[19:10] <absynth> OriWB: so, you have internet, and when you want to download large files, your connection brakes
[19:10] <jussel> diginux: Maybe I can something with that?
[19:10] <OriWB> absynth: exactly
[19:10] <mikeyyy> taz: The newest version. Currently 1.1.4 is in development
[19:10] <diginux> jussel: hmm, could be, see what it does :)
[19:10] <Gnea> _2: you said you want to control the remote display
[19:10] <taz> how i can upgrade ??
[19:10] <diginux> jussel: my next suggestion is to upgrade to ububtu 8.10
[19:10] <absynth> OriWB: what do you mean with too many connections?
[19:11] <jussel> diginux: how? :P
[19:11] <_2> Gnea without piping it to this display
[19:11] <OriWB> absynth: i can sheck exactly what he wrote me, just a sec
[19:11] <mikeyyy> taz: it's the latest version. You can't update it unless 1.1.4 (stable) came up
[19:11] <absynth> OriWB: ok
[19:11] <Gnea> _2: then use a KVM.
[19:11] <taz> ok it will itself upgrade ??
[19:11] <_2> k
[19:12] <diginux> jussel: hold on
[19:12] <jussel> diginux: thanks again :)
[19:12] <mikeyyy> taz: No
[19:12] <Gnea> _2: next time, please be more specific when you ask :)
[19:12] <OriWB> abzynth: "and it only happens when I have too many connections at one time (hint: bittorrent)"
[19:13] <diginux> jussel: http://www.ubuntugeek.com/upgrade-ubuntu-804-hardy-heron-to-ubuntu-810-intrepid-ibix.html
[19:13] <jussel> diginux: Thanks
[19:13] <OriWB> absynth: "and it only happens when I have too many connections at one time (hint: bittorrent)"
[19:14] <mikeyyy> hi guys, i got a problem here. need ur help. i installed cedega and launch the program. Cedega try to connect to internet to find the update but it failed because im behind proxy. how can i configure my ubuntu so that all the applications will connect through a proxy? Need help. Plzzzzzzz
[19:14] <_2> "any way to connect the keyboard and mouse of one box to the xserver of another box ?"  <<< i should have added "without exporting the vidio of the remote box"  i susssssposes
[19:14] <OriWB> absynth: does that help at all?
[19:15] <taz> mikeyyy  i read in website http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=application&iId=6131
[19:15] <taz> look at verison
[19:15] <absynth> OriWB: I dont see, why bittorent and other stuff like that could effect your wlan connection, it makes no sense (to me)
[19:15] <MonsieurY> want to test ekiga<EMAIL_ADDRESS>[19:15] <jussel> diginux: It's updating now :-)
[19:15] <Absorto> hello! how do I upgrade a server installation of feisty to the latest release?
[19:15] <gwennn> Hi! I have a problem with compiz ... I must run it manually when I login  "sudo compiz" and then everything runs fine.How can I enable compiz?
[19:15] <OriWB> absynth: too many connections doesnt make sense?
[19:16] <_2> absynth unless the host is setup to drop connections that use torrents
[19:16] <OriWB> absynth: oh, he also said "you on bittorrent? I think you're router has a built-in setting that disconnects you when you have too many connection"
[19:16] <intmed> gwennn: i have also that problem
[19:16] <diginux> jussel: very good, hopefully in the newer version it works!
[19:16] <gwennn> intmed : jaunty?
[19:16] <jussel> Would be great :)
[19:17] <absynth> OriWB: You have only 1 connection with your AP, when you load files from different places, then the datapackges are queued
[19:17] <absynth> OriWB: Ok , that could be possible
[19:17] <OriWB> absynth: do you know how i can check?
[19:17] <absynth> OriWB: that your router disables your connection
[19:17] <mikeyyy> taz: yes.. it is list of cross loop version. Why?
[19:18] <MonsieurY> nobody want to to test ekiga ?
[19:18] <absynth> OriWB: do you know your gateway address?
[19:18] <OriWB> yeah
[19:18] <MonsieurY> is there any directory of this ?
[19:18] <OriWB> absynth: yeah
[19:18] <taz> mine is 1.0.1
[19:18] <_2> MonsieurY i don't test anything i can't pronounce
[19:18] <absynth> ok, just type the gateway address in your browser
[19:18] <OriWB> absynth: im in
[19:18] <mikeyyy> taz: it 'cross loop' version. not 'wine'..
[19:19] <MonsieurY> _2: why it's integrate in your os ubuntu ?
[19:19] <MonsieurY> ekiga
[19:19] <MonsieurY> :D
[19:19] <OriWB> absynth: its a siemens, if that helps
[19:19] <absynth> OriWB: ok, then , just look, after an option, that looks like our problem :D
[19:19] <absynth> OriWB: never had one :( , only fritzbox and orangef things
[19:20] <Taure> Hiya, I'm looking for help with playing DVDs. I've got the restricted extras, and have used sudo /usr/share/doc/libdvdread3/install-css.sh to allow for encrypted DVDs, but when they play they flicker. I've tried this in both totem and VLC. I've also used the dmesg | grep ata command to check my DMA - it's enabled. Any tips?
[19:20] <Taure> (I'm a noob - only installed on tuesday)
[19:20] <absynth> OriWB: maybe goolge after it
[19:20] <absynth> OriWB: google*
[19:20] <OriWB> absynth: ok
[19:21] <OriWB> absynth: thanx alot, i'll let you know if it works. Or you'll know it didnt if i sign off ;)
[19:21] <absynth> OriWB: but, if this is really your problem, then you should be connected to your AP all the time, you just have no internet connection sometimes
[19:21] <mzz> Taure: do only dvds flicker or does other stuff you play in totem do the same thing?
[19:21] <Taure> I'll test
[19:21] <absynth> OriWB: ok
[19:21] <absynth> OriWB: :)
[19:21] <mzz> Taure: also, what video card do you have and are desktop effects enabled?
[19:21] <OriWB> absynth: i think thats what happens, its beginning to make sense now
[19:22] <OriWB> absynth: talk to you later ;)
[19:22] <absynth> OriWB: good :) the solution is near, i can feel it :D
[19:22] <absynth> OriWB: ok
[19:22] <MonsieurY><EMAIL_ADDRESS>[19:23] <Taure> Only DVDs, yeah
[19:23] <Taure> I have ATI HD 2400
[19:23] <Taure> And I've got compiz running
[19:23] <mzz> Taure: which drivers is that using, the binary (fglrx) ones or the open (radeon) ones? There are some known problems with fglrx and xv video
[19:24] <Taure> fglrx
[19:24] <derjoerg> Hi everybody, can somebody explain me what "kernel: Cannot read proc file system: 9 - Bad file descriptor" in kern.log means?
[19:24] <Slart> Hello everyone.. I have some text files edited on a windows computer and I need to make them work nicely on my ubuntu machine.. some of the international characters isn't the same but linefeeds and newlines are still working.. there has to be some kind of converter I can use.. any hints?
[19:24] <thrashold> Is there any image viewer for Ubuntu supporting jpeg2k?
[19:24] <mzz> Taure: if that's your problem I'd expect it to happen for pretty much everything you play with vlc or mplayer unless you either switch to the radeon driver, disable compiz or switch from xv to x11/xshm for video playback (slow)
[19:24] <Taure> I'll disable compiz and see if that helps
[19:25] <mzz> Slart: many of them, and do you know the encoding they're currently using?
[19:25] <mzz> Slart: gedit actually has a "Character Coding" option in its load and save dialogs. Or you can use something like iconv if you prefer the command line.
[19:26] <Slart> mzz: what windows xp create by default =).. I can see if enca has anything wise to say about it
[19:26] <thrashold> How do you disable compiz in Ubuntu?
[19:26] <Taure> Haha I was just thinking that
[19:26] <intmed> me too
[19:26] <mzz> disable desktop effects in the "appearance" preferences applet
[19:26] <fosco__> thrashold, go to desktop effects and select none
[19:26] <voed22cj> Hi everyone. One question: I have ubuntu installed on my laptop and I have a problem regarding the SOUND. When I plug the headphones in, still, the sound comes out through the laptop speakers as well. This didn't happen in Windows. Does anyone know how to fix it? Thanks
[19:26] <thrashold> fosco_: Where is this? Could find it
[19:27] <thrashold> s/Could/Couldn't/
[19:27] <fosco__> system - preferences - appearance
[19:27] <Taure> Success!
[19:27] <Taure> Disabling effects makes it work
[19:27] <Slart> mzz: enca didn't recognize it.. file says it's a "Non-ISO extended-ASCII text, with CRLF line terminators"
[19:27] <Taure> Thanks
[19:27] <SiDi> Hello voed22cj, what audio card do you have ? if you have an HDA intel you'll just have to add a line in a conf and it shall be fixed ;)
[19:27] <Slart> mzz: I'll give gedit a try, thanks
[19:27] <gautada> Help a weird key combination just made gnome go from gray to a black.  This is just the gnome panel my background is still the same.  It looks like film negative.  The keys were some combination of <Ctrl>, <Super>, <Alt>, <Space>, <V>, and/or <B>.  How do I get gnome back to normal?
[19:27] <yoophglup> hello
[19:28] <KaptenRodSkagg> voed22cj, if you mute system sound the music player should sound in the headphones only...
[19:28] <SiDi> voed22cj: may you type '      lspci | grep -i "audio"       ' in a terminal and paste the output ?
[19:28] <mzz> Slart: what windows (notepad?) saved it as may depend on what locale windows thinks you're in
[19:28] <Slart> mzz: it's actually matlab .. but I guess that editor is as smart as notepad
[19:28] <Cpudan80> Hello all
[19:28] <Cpudan80> Is there some way to download the deb out of apt-get?
[19:28] <hatten> how do you make so that you hear sounds from both the speakers and the headphones plugged in into the front?
[19:28] <mzz> Slart: and it's pretty much impossible for tools (like file) to reliably detect the encoding if it's one of the one-byte-per-codepoint ones
[19:28] <zupb> hi, gusy. i try to mount my MMC flash card to my ubuntu... what device in /dev i must use for it?
[19:29] <voed22cj> sure
[19:29] <SiDi> Cpudan80: on packages.ubuntu.com there are every packages of the repo
[19:29] <gwennn> I must run compiz manually ...sudo compiz   at login How can I enable it automatically?
[19:29] <SiDi> Cpudan80: there also are a lot of packages on launchpad.net's PPA, and some websites provide deb packages for their soft (such as winehq)
[19:29] <Slart> mzz: yup.. I know
[19:29] <hatten> system>preferences>sessions, gwenn
[19:30] <fosco__> gwennn, install fusion-icon and add it to the session manager

[19:30] <yoophglup> Hey,  I am trying to reconfigure my audio ports so the mic and the line in are used as line outs.  I can do this in windows but having trouble getting it to work with ubuntu??? any ideas?
[19:30] <gwennn> hatten; I have jaunty
[19:30] <SiDi> gwennn: go to System -> Administration -> Sessions and add "compiz --replace &" but it should actually start up on its own if you enable it once
[19:30] <gwennn> it did't work
[19:30] <KaptenRodSkagg> hatten,  just plug in the headphones... and you have sound in both...  or shuld have
[19:30] <hatten> oh, nvm then
[19:30] <hatten> no
[19:30] <hatten> the sound stops in my speakers when i plug in my headphones
[19:30] <gwennn> thanks
[19:30] <SiDi> ok voed22cj give me a second to find the tutorial again. By the way, type my name when you type a message so i can spot it more easily
[19:30] <gwennn> I'll try
[19:30] <mzz> gwennn: "sudo compiz" does not make much sense. Is it not working as "you" even when you run it manually? If yes the problem may be with your user's compiz configuration, not with how it is started.
[19:31] <voed22cj> Sisi: Sure
[19:31] <voed22cj> Sidi: Sure
[19:31] <burkmat> hatten, You want sound from both?
[19:31] <hatten> yeah
[19:31] <SiDi> voed22cj: may you also tell me the exact model of your laptop ?
[19:31] <Slart> mzz: thanks for your help
[19:31] <gautada> solved my problem by changing the visual effects...
[19:31] <mzz> Slart: hope you can figure out what encoding it is actually in...
[19:31] <ubuntan> Greetings all. My ubuntu desktop got corrupted and I wanted to recover that. Now it is not starting the X server. Is there any way to reset the X server?
[19:31] <burkmat> hatten, Well... I know that in my Ubuntu 8.04 double clicking the volume control in GNOME and selecting the "Switches" tab lets me toggle it.
[19:32] <voed22cj> sony vaio
[19:32] <voed22cj> sidi: sony vio
[19:32] <voed22cj> sidi: sony vaio
[19:32] <SiDi> voed22cj: be as accurate as you can. there are a lot of sony and all of them don't have the same version of the audio chipset you're using ;)
[19:33] <yoophglup> so no one knows how to reconfigure an audio port??
[19:33] <voed22cj> sidi: found it: vaio VGN-Nr11M/S
[19:33] <zertyuio> hi there
[19:33] <SiDi> ok voed22cj give me a second :)
[19:33] <zertyuio> how to delete a folder and a sub folder in one command line ?
[19:33] <ubuntan> Now when I give startx, it gives me the error "The GNOME session manager cannot start properly. cannot establish any listening sockets. Try using failsafe session.
[19:33] <zertyuio> i forgot the command line
[19:33] <voed22cj> SiDi: sure, thanks
[19:34] <burkmat> zertyuio, You can recursively delete using -r.
[19:34] <zertyuio> using -r ?
[19:34] <maxime_> hi everyone
[19:34] <burkmat> zertyuio, Well, rm -r /tacos would delete /tacos and everything in it.
[19:34] <zertyuio> mkdir -Rf ?
[19:34] <hatten> burkmat ; thanks
[19:34] <burkmat> hatten, No problems. :)
[19:34] <hatten> just gotta check how to change the volume a bit now

[19:36] <^hashbang^> irssi rules =)
[19:36] <maxime_> what the
[19:37] <zertyuio> it's like linux
[19:37] <burkmat> zertyuio, I actually don't know if you can recursively delete over FTP...
[19:37] <hatten> hey guys, the sound volume in my earplugs are way too loud compared to my speakers
[19:37] <zertyuio> no u can't
[19:37] <hatten> i have the speakers at max
[19:37] <zertyuio> i confirm u
[19:37] <zertyuio> it's not working for me
[19:37] <zertyuio> on ftp
[19:37] <hatten> and no volume control at the plugs
[19:37] <yoophglup> no one in heres knows how to reconfigure an audio port from output to input!!!!!????? or at least what file I can study to figure it out myself???
[19:38] <hatten> i have both enabled at the same time
[19:38] <zertyuio> is there any here knows ?
[19:38] <Kino_> #ubuntu-pt
[19:38] <maxime_> yoophglup: what the hell man, google it, god damn it
[19:38] <^hashbang^> maxime_: please watch your language..
[19:38] <burkmat> yoophglup, If we knew we'd tell you, I promise. Also, people might be more willing to help if you dropped a couple of ?'s and !'s... 1 is enough.
[19:38] <SiDi> voed22cj: a last command, sorry  : cat /proc/asound/card0/codec\#* | grep Codec
[19:38] <yoophglup> damn to u a response from anyone would be polite i am out of here
[19:39] <rakudave> Kino_: syntax is "/join #something"
[19:39] <voed22cj> SiDi: to type it in terminal?
[19:39] <Brad777> if i'm using kubuntu atm can i just do sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop then sudo apt-get remove kubuntu-desktop to switch to gnome?
[19:39] <maxime_> yoophglup: be polite yourself, in the first place, imbecile, you dont deserve any help, according to myself , of course :)
[19:39] <^hashbang^> !pat | yoophglup
[19:39] <^hashbang^> !patience | yoophglup
[19:39] <gwennn> compiz works fine now ...Thanks everybody!
[19:39] <SiDi> voed22cj: yes. it's to know the exact version of the audio chipset. all the vaio's don't use the same
[19:40] <vigo> yoohglup: nope/\
[19:40] <jimdb> how many ppl in here have looked at kde 4.2?
[19:40] <maxime_> im out guys, ill come back from my other irc client
[19:40] <voed22cj> SiDi: here it is Codec: Realtek ALC262
[19:40] <voed22cj> Codec: Conexant ID 2c06
[19:40] <Brad777> jimdb: i have
[19:40] <SiDi> voed22cj: okies
[19:40] <^hashbang^> jimdb: I have... for about 5 mins... then switched back =)
[19:40] <int256> where can i find applictaion for linux (ubuntu 8.10)
[19:41] <jimdb> brad, what did you think of it?
[19:41] <^hashbang^> int256: what application?
[19:41] <SiDi> voed22cj: type the command "gksudo gedit /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base" in order to edit the alsa config file
[19:41] <mitch_ux> hi there, do anyone plays wolfenstein enemy territory? I have some problem
[19:42] <maxime_> int256 go to terminal and type fpkg --configure -a  (is it kpfg ? )
[19:42] <SiDi> voed22cj: at the end of the line, add :       options snd-hda-intel model=sony-assamd
[19:42] <^hashbang^> mitch_ux: this is a ubuntu support channel, not a wolfenstein support channel.
[19:42] <int256> ^hashbang^: like download manager, a fast one.
[19:42] <Brad777> jimdb: well I think it looks great but it can be pretty unstable
[19:42] <SiDi> voed22cj: then you can reboot and enjoy :) if it doesn't work (or if the whole sound disappears :P) we'll try another model
[19:42] <Brad777> if i'm using kubuntu atm can i just do sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop then sudo apt-get remove kubuntu-desktop to switch to gnome?
[19:42] <SiDi> mitch_ux: what kind of problem ?
[19:42] <voed22cj> SiDi: done, thanks. rebooting
[19:43] <^hashbang^> int256: there are tons.... open: System-Administration->Synaptic Package Manager and search for download manager
[19:43] <int256> ^hashbang^: any sugessions
[19:44] <jimdb> sudo -i
[19:44] <jimdb> echo "et.x86 0 0 direct" > /proc/asound/card0/pcm0p/oss
[19:44] <^hashbang^> int256: naw, I don't use themmm
[19:44] <jimdb> mitch_ux:  does that address your issue?
[19:44] <^hashbang^> int256: s/themmm/them/
[19:45] <gwennn> maxime : dpkg --configure -a
[19:45] <int256> ^hashbang^: will applications for KDE will on ubuntu
[19:45] <fosco__> !uuid
[19:45] <^hashbang^> int256: use the package manager for ubuntu, there are tons of software packages out there
[19:45] <hatten> most kde apps work on ubuntu
[19:46] <jimdb> brad777:  i have been using it and have resolved many issues and it seems to be much more stable now.  i'm actually quite impressed.
[19:46] <int256> hatten: ok
[19:46] <hatten> brb, change nick
[19:46] <jimdb> mitch_ux:  are you there?
[19:46] <zertyuio> over ftp how to delete a folder and his sub folder ?
[19:47] <hatten> back
[19:47] <int256> ^hashbang^: will all the application showing in Synaptic Package Manager is compatible with ubuntu that i am using
[19:47] <Brad777> jimdb: how did u fix it? I am all the way up to date atm and I have this weird glitch when i login where if i don't click while it loadsthen the screen turns white and just sits like that
[19:47] <^hashbang^> zertyuio: usually you need to cd to the sub foler and remove it... then cd .. and remove the top level folder
[19:48] <^hashbang^> int356: yes
[19:48] <burkmat> zertyuio, You're either going to need a FTP client that supports recursive deletion or a customized FTP server... Suggest you Google for: "ftp recursive delete"
[19:48] <^hashbang^> int256: yes
[19:48] <jimdb> brad777:  which kde 4.2 did you install?  neon kde nightly?
[19:48] <zertyuio> i got thousand of folder
[19:48] <voed22cj> SiDi: Wow, thanks. it works
[19:48] <zertyuio> that's not pratical for me
[19:48] <burkmat> zertyuio, Then I suggest you try one of the clients that support it.
[19:48] <^hashbang^> zertyuio: ok try using fireftp (firefox plugin) or gftp (gnome ftp client)
[19:48] <burkmat> zertyuio, You don't really seem to be listening what I'm saying, so I'm just going to back off...
[19:48] <zertyuio> ok
[19:48] <SiDi> voed22cj: you're welcome :) may you remind me your model so that i add it to the french doc's database, please ?
[19:49] <zertyuio> ok thx to all
[19:49] <^hashbang^> zertyuio:np
[19:49] <voed22cj> SiDi: Sony Vaio: VGN-NR11M/S
[19:49] <SiDi> voed22cj: nevermind found it back :)
[19:49] <SiDi> voed22cj: well thanks :D
[19:50] <voed22cj> :P
[19:51] <SiDi> voed22cj: by the way when you buy a laptop, always try to get one with an HDA intel :) it works just well with the good model
[19:51] <Travis-42> is there a good, cheap way to backup files online with linux?  I have previously used mozy (unlimited $5/month) but they don't have a linux client.  Amazon S3 sounds like a nice option, but it'll cost more like $30-40/month.
[19:51] <jimdb> brad777:  you there?
[19:51] <dayo2> does anyone know how i can get the dock in this screenshot to show? http://francois.vogelweith.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=30:theme-gnome-qstep-into-freedomq&catid=18:themes&Itemid=23
[19:51] <LaUd> ? installing nautilus scipts --> do i just extract files to this folder ~/.gnome2/nautilus-scripts and i'm good to go?
[19:51] <prone> hello gais
[19:51] <SiDi> Travis-42: did you try through Wine by chance ?
[19:51] <Brad777> jimdb: i'm not sure whatever came on my kubuntu livecd
[19:51] <prone> can anyone of you tell a girl how to install glibc 2.3.2?
[19:51] <voed22cj> SiDi: thanks for the tip. I was planning to change this one anyway in the near future
[19:51] <prone> seem like I need it
[19:52] <^hashbang^> day02: try installing avant
[19:52] <SiDi> dayo2: probably avant-window-navigator
[19:52] <prone> for this blender 3d software
[19:52] <int256> ^hashbang^: hot to monitor internet usage.
[19:52] <burkmat> prone, If only you had been a boy I would've known, but girls? Sorry, don't know how to help you install glibc.
[19:52] <dayo2> prone: sudo aptitude install glibc-2.3.2
[19:52] <Travis-42> SiDi: yea.  I can't get it to work.  It's also reported "garbage" in wine app db.
[19:52] <dayo2> prone: what ubuntu version?
[19:52] <jimdb> brad777:  look up "how to install kde 4.2 on ubuntu" in google and find the one that gives you the link to install the kde nightly.
[19:53] <dayo2> SiDi: av-who?
[19:53] <jimdb> that dock app is avant window navigator.
[19:53] <jimdb> there's a version you can install from synaptic.
[19:53] <SiDi> dayo2: the name of the dock is "awn" "avant-window-navigator" (well, i think it is :p)
[19:53] <Brad777> jimdb: okay
[19:53] <int256> ^hashbang^: not'hot' its How
[19:53] <^hashbang^> int256: you want an app to montior internet usage? hmm, there are a ton! try installing iftop
[19:53] <SiDi> dayo2: there also are other docks such as cairo-dock
[19:53] <prone> dayo2: "Couldn't find any package whose name or description matched "glibc-2.3.2""
[19:53] <dayo2> SiDi, jimdb: ok
[19:53] <jimdb> brad777:  seriously, this is a better installation than the experimental one they have for kubuntu users.
[19:54] <prone> dayo2: 8.10
[19:54] <int256> ^hashbang^: ok, how to install. i am new to ubuntu. (new to linux)
[19:54] <^hashbang^> int256: or if you want a little widget, you can install "screenlets" and then go and search for "netmonscreelet" and install it
[19:54] <dayo2> prone: try sudo aptitude install glibc-  and then press Tab twice
[19:54] <^hashbang^> int256: almost all the software you will ever need to install can and should be done from "Synaptic"
[19:54] <SiDi> Travis-42: don't know then :( the appdb entries are not really looking like there's a chance to make it run :(
[19:55] <int256> ^hashbang^: ok
[19:55] <jimdb> brad777: once you install it, you should change your session to the neon kde 4.2 rather than the kubuntu version which will also be listed.
[19:55] <prone> dayo2: glibc-doc glibc-doc-reference  glibc-pic glibc-source
[19:55] <jimdb> brad777:  and it takes only a few minutes to install via broadband.
[19:55] <int256> ^hashbang^: where is it
[19:55] <^hashbang^> int256: where is what?
[19:55] <dayo2> prone: hmm. that's weird. i think. i've got 8.04, and it offers me glibc-2.7.1
[19:56] <prone> dayo2: hmmm really strange. I miss some repository sources??
[19:56] <dayo2> prone: hang on
[19:56] <burkmat> prone, `sudo apt-get update` perhaps? I get offered glibc-2.7.1 too.
[19:56] <int256> ^hashbang^: i got it. but i cannot find iftop in Synaptic
[19:56] <dayo2> prone: yes i think so. try what burkmat said
[19:56] <int256> ^hashbang^: i searched but not found
[19:57] <^hashbang^> int256: try hitting "reload"
[19:58] <dayo2> prone: after the update, try the double-Tab thing again, and see if it doesn't show glibc-2.7.1
[19:58] <int256> ^hashbang^: reloaded, still cannot find
[19:59] <eike_> hi, i have a ShareCentral from Kensington (http://de.kensington.com/html/15960.html), but it won't work with ubuntu intrepid. does anybody know a way to use it with intrepid?
[19:59] <prone> dayo2: yep. now it shows 2.7.1
[19:59] <gwennn> dayo; Try also cairo dock and gnome-docky
[19:59] <^hashbang^> int256: hmm
[19:59] <Like> hi and
[20:00] <^hashbang^> !apt > ^hashbang^
[20:00] <prone> dayo2: "0 packages upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 5 not upgraded."
[20:00] <^hashbang^> !apt | int256
[20:01] <^hashbang^> int256: check that out..
[20:01] <Improv> Where can I get more information about how Ubuntu's init works?
[20:01] <dayo2> prone: did u do `sudo aptitude update` or was it `sudo aptitude upgrade`   ?
[20:02] <int256> ^hashbang^: i got screenlets, from Applications > Add/Remove...
[20:02] <SiDi> Improv: what do you need to know? the question is vague
[20:02] <^hashbang^> Improv: check out http://upstart.ubuntu.com/
[20:02] <uldtot> Hello, Anyone who can help me setup on ubuntu server (mail, http, sql and ftp) i recently lost my windows server and ubuntu or any other free i cannot work with...
[20:02] <prone> dayo2: no i did install glibc2-7 or whatever it was called
[20:02] <Improv> hashbang: Thanks!
[20:03] <^hashbang^> Improv: np, had that same question about 20 mins ago
[20:03] <dayo2> prone: first do this: `sudo aptitude update`
[20:03] <prone> dayo2: :)
[20:03] <prone> dayo2: I'm on it!
[20:03] <prone> dayo2: done
[20:03] <^hashbang^> int256: cool..
[20:03] <dayo2> prone: after that: `sudo aptitude install glibc-2.7.1`
[20:04] <SiDi> uldtot : with the server install cd you can install lamp ftp ssh and such stuff with only a few clicks
[20:04] <uldtot> did install them. but i cant find any softrware so i can manage users or sertup accounts..
[20:04] <uldtot> SiDi*
[20:04] <prone> dayo2: no change,. maybe it's allready installed?
[20:04] <SiDi> uldtot useradd and usermod commands i think :)
[20:05] <SiDi> uldtot you were not using your windows server in command line, i suppose ? :P
[20:05] <dayo2> prone: ok, maybe. do: `sudo aptitude show glibc-2.7.1`
[20:05] <uldtot> no. GUI :D
[20:05] <a555> I am trying to watch a you tube video and it says i need java, i tried sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree and it installed flash, but cant find the sudo for java..
[20:05] <^hashbang^> a555: are you running amd64?
[20:05] <burkmat> Would be an interesting video seeing someone actually try to set up AD in CLI... :P
[20:06] <a555> yes
[20:06] <uldtot> i try adduser :) brb :D
[20:06] <prone> dayo2: hmm... says it's unable to locate it
[20:06] <a555> ^hashbang^: yes
[20:06] <invisibleNinja> I wonder why on earth Synaptic decided to download and install Eclipse version 3.2, when the latest is 3.4!
[20:06] <dayo2> prone: it actually says glibc-2.7.1 is not a real package, it's provided by libc6
[20:06] <^hashbang^> a555: try this http://download.macromedia.com/pub/labs/flashplayer10/libflashplayer-10.0.d21.1.linux-x86_64.so.tar.gz
[20:06] <prone> dayo2: yes
[20:06] <dayo2> prone: try this: `sudo aptitude install libc6`
[20:07] <^hashbang^> a555: it's the only thing that worked for me
[20:07] <gwennn> uldtot: man adduser
[20:07] <a555> ^hashbang^: do you have a good link on how to unpack .tar.gz and install everything from the command line? I am a linux noob
[20:07] <a555> ^hashbang^: or even from the GUI would be better
[20:07] <LePHiSTO> a555: tar xfzv <archivename>
[20:07] <^hashbang^> a555: tar xvfz "filename"
[20:08] <dayo2> prone: if i'm not mistaken, then you can in fact just do: `sudo aptitude install build-essential`. but try the first option
[20:08] <^hashbang^> a555: cd "new dir from package"
[20:08] <LePHiSTO> wattatt?
[20:08] <LePHiSTO> ww
[20:08] <prone> dayo2: ah, it runs the isntallation process saying 0 stuff installed
[20:08] <prone> dayo2: ah

[20:10] <dayo2> prone: ok, let see if it covers glibc-2.7.1

[20:12] <dayo2> prone: ok, cool. so u should now have glibc-2.7.1
[20:12] <dayo2> prone: what did u need it for, anyway?

[20:14] <nanotube> sara_: then recordmydesktop it is :)
[20:14] <Baatti> I've downloaded java-6u12-linux-x64.bin....
[20:14] <prone> dayo2: blender 3d
[20:14] <nanotube> dayo2: well, it /is/ a viable alternative, so i figured i'd mention it for completeness. or something  like that :)
[20:14] <FreshPrince__> where can i select new GDM themes?
[20:14] <Baatti> I've moved it to my java folder, chmoded it...extracted it, but it WON'T WORK on my browser!

[20:15] <serfers> Hey everyone. Im having a bit of trouble. im trying to make an app listen on a certain port for connections. However, when i open the app, it says that tht port is already in use. Is there any way i can see whats using it and kill it or delete an iptabl rule or somthing? thanks
[20:15] <nanotube> prone: then install the libstdc++5 package from the repos.
[20:16] <adaptr> serfers: first you'd need to know what is using it: netstat -plnt |grep portnumber
[20:16] <nanotube> serfers: "sudo netstat -plantu" will show you all processes listening on ports
[20:16] <dayo2> prone: are u installing blender from source?
[20:17] <fedormorozov> hello
[20:17] <burkmat> Hello fedormorozov.
[20:17] <serfers> adaptr and nanotube thanks a lot. the process is vmnet-natd
[20:17] <serfers> can i just kill it with the system monitor?
[20:17] <alex87> hey guys, i just installed the virtualbox version from their website, but now i don't seem to have it installed at all, any ideas?
[20:17] <fedormorozov> please, if someone could help me, I installed Ubuntu 7.10 and my wireless does not connect to any wifi. It detects it, but does not connects.
[20:18] <serfers> adaptr and nanotube, i cant see vmnet-natd in the system monitor...
[20:18] <nanotube> serfers: it seems to be a vmware process that is uses for nat networking... sure you can kill it, assuming you don't need network in vmware at the time...
[20:18] <adaptr> serfers: you would kill vmware networking on any runnin gvmware guests
[20:18] <prone> dayo2: hmm... from a CD that came with a book about the program.
[20:18] <invisibleNinja> alex87, type sudo VirtualBox
[20:18] <dayo2> prone: try this instead: `sudo aptitude install blender`
[20:18] <serfers> adaptr, thats ok for now, i just dont know how to kill it if i dont see it in the system monitor
[20:18] <prone> dayo2: I just unpacked it and started  from terminal
[20:18] <mustangg> uck - sorry I need to ask again... but: where does the installer grab the hostname for the network configuration stage of install.
[20:18] <invisibleNinja> do may have to do a restart to see it in the application list
[20:18] <nanotube> serfers: in system monitor, make sure to select "show all processes"
[20:19] <nanotube> serfers: or kill it from the terminal using pkill or kill
[20:19] <adaptr> serfers: killall vmnet-natd
[20:19] <sara_> lmao i love the facebook addon for pidgin you can collect really personal infomation on people
[20:19] <fedormorozov> anybody knows why could happen that? It worked perfectly in the previous version of ubuntu
[20:19] <dayo2> prone: it's always better to use apt and avoid installing from source. apt takes care of the dependencies for u
[20:19] <prone> dayo2: cool, thanks
[20:20] <alex87> invisibleNinja: thanks! your a lifesaver
[20:20] <nanotube> fedormorozov: well, first an easy question - try the latest release of ubuntu (8.10) ?
[20:20] <decembre> hello
[20:20] <fedormorozov> yes, sorry, it is 8.10 not 7.10
[20:20] <dayo2> prone: you're welcome. it worked?
[20:21] <alex87> *you're
[20:21] <jussel> diginux: Hey Diginux, 're you there?
[20:21] <decembre> anyone knows really advantages of LTS ?
[20:21] <fedormorozov> it worked with 8.04 lts
[20:21] <soreau> ! lts | decembre
[20:22] <decembre> ubottu : yes I know, I would like to know more !
[20:22] <invisibleNinja> anytime alex87
[20:22] <int256> ^hashbang^: thanks for helping me to solve my problems.
[20:22] <decembre> I have a small server for me only
[20:22] <serfers> adaptr and nanotube thanks a million, its all good now
[20:22] <decembre> should I keep it in LTS or upgrade ?
[20:23] <decembre> whereas I have bugs in 8.04 !
[20:23] <mzz> if you're hitting bugs in 8.04 that you know are fixed in 8.10 you could upgrade
[20:24] <decembre> mzz : in fact lts doesn't give much more stability for simple use ?
[20:24] <tom1234> hi
[20:24] <int256> i found 8 bugs that is not mentioned any where else
[20:24] <decembre> like family server ?
[20:24] <mustangg> sorry I need to ask again... but: where does the installer grab the hostname for the network configuration stage of install.
[20:24] <dayo2> int256: u should report them
[20:24] <int256> yes i will.
[20:24] <dayo2> mustangg: /etc/hostname  ?
[20:25] <mzz> decembre: it has new versions of lots of stuff. So you may want to upgrade for the features in those new versions. I wouldn't upgrade in an attempt to get rid of problems in 8.04 without first checking those problems are known to be fixed in 8.10
[20:25] <dayo2> mustangg: or /etc/dhcp3/dhcpd.conf
[20:25] <mzz> decembre: that's just me though.
[20:25] <soreau> mzz: Still at it? :)
[20:25] <mustangg> dayo2:  during a fresh install?
[20:25] <int256> i will make a video showing the bug. so that deelopers can understand well.
[20:25] <mzz> soreau: eh, answering basics like this doesn't take much attention
[20:25] <dayo2> mustangg: install from CD?
[20:25] <ramiro> hi
[20:25] <int256> bye
[20:26] <Aladin> und jetzt
[20:26] <mustangg> dayo2: yeah, the alt iso.
[20:26] <dayo2> mustangg: wouldn't there be a moment during the install, where it prompts you for the hostname?
[20:26] <decembre> mzz : thanks
[20:26] <mustangg> dayo2: right. where does that name come from, when it self populates?
[20:27] <decembre> nobody give me reasons to keep lts
[20:27] <decembre> I think I will upgrade
[20:27] <dayo2> mustangg: i'm guessing from the CD. never checked, but it probably has a default hostname file on CD, where the hostname defaults to "ubuntu:
[20:27] <dayo2> "ubuntu"
[20:28] <usaurio> yo
[20:28] <usaurio> sadd
[20:28] <mustangg> decembre: if I've learned anything about linux, it is that the less upgrading needed means more stability. Upgrades are as needed only.
[20:28] <Aladin> habe sowas noch nie cht
[20:28] <fedormorozov> I would like to specify: when I turn my wireless card on, the light flishes 1 time and then nothing else... It detects wifi and asks for password in protected networks, tries to connect but doesn't (neither to unprotected networks)
[20:28] <fedormorozov> sorry, flashes
[20:29] <mustangg> dayo2: that was my expectation but I asked because I've tried a few fresh installs and each time the installer finds my previous hostname. Even after I dd'd my hard drives from sec 0 to sec max.
[20:29] <csaba198> Hi! I' m running now ubuntu liveCD edition, and i' ve a hard drive containing 21 partitions, but in the /dev/ directory it' s counted only till sda15, but i' d like to mount sda16. What can i do? I tried mknod /dev/sda16 b 8 16, but then mount says "/dev/sda16 is not a valid block device".
[20:30] <joshjtl> hi, I'm about to upgrade from 2gb to 4gb ram... do I need to have ubuntu x86-64 installed to be able take advantage of all 4gb?
[20:30] <jim_p> joshjtl, yes
[20:30] <dayo2> mustangg: are u connected to a dhcp server?
[20:31] <joshjtl> jim_p: definitely?
[20:31] <MadsRH> Does anyone know if Compiz 0.8 will make it into Jaunty?
[20:31] <mustangg> dayo2:  yeah, and that nic does have a reserved ip. Could it be grabbing the info because that's the name associated with the mac on the dhcp server?
[20:31] <jado> hi, i'm trying to launch a file.jar with java -jar file.jar but i've got this : "No X11 DISPLAY variable was set, but this program performed an operation which requires it."
[20:32] <jim_p> joshjtl, yea as in all 32bit oses, the os will "see" less ram that the one that it runs on
[20:32] <clayg> whenever i try to shutdown or access any of the parts there, even lock screen or logout, it takes 30 seconds or so and freezes the computer while it waits.  I can still shutdown through command line with no delay but I want ot be able to lock screen if i need to walk out of the room without waiting 30 seconds and basically telling my coworker i dont trust him
[20:32] <dayo2> mustangg: yes. check /etc/dhcp3/dhcpd.conf and find your hostname in there, along with the mac addr and reserved IP
[20:32] <joshjtl> okay thanks jim_p
[20:33] <ramiro> (sorry for cross-asking for whoever is in #vbox as well, but I think it's good to ask it here)
[20:33] <ramiro> I need to run a vbox as another user when ubuntu starts up. no problem placing it in /etc/rc.d and such, but what command must I run? I usually "su - username", type in password, then "VBoxHeadless <...> & exit". how do I automate this? (including the password)
[20:33] <mustangg> dayo2: well I don't have such an animal during the fresh install, but at least you've helped my peace-of-mind. I'd spent a good amount of time fighting problems with fakeraid+ LVM and that seemed like yet another problem to fix...
[20:34] <jim_p> does anyone know how to use quassel?
[20:34] <dayo2> mustangg: something like: host mustanggsbox { hardware ethernet 00:d3:24:f7:82 ; fixed-address <IP_ADDRESS> ; }
[20:34] <jim_p> i want to get the !@#$%^ timestamp away
[20:35] <burkmat> What would dhcpd do if it received a request with the entire range already leased?
[20:35] <dayo2> mustangg: you could try deleting that entry from your dhcpd.conf, then restart dhcp3-server before installing again
[20:35] <mustangg> dayo2:  my dhcp box is a linux router.
[20:36] <chmac> Anyone using Rhythmbox with the last.fm plugin? I can't seem to play music, not sure where to start...
[20:36] <clayg> whenever i try to shutdown or access any of the parts there, even lock screen or logout, it takes 30 seconds or so and freezes the computer while it waits.  I can still shutdown through command line with no delay but I want ot be able to lock screen if i need to walk out of the room without waiting 30 seconds and basically telling my coworker i dont trust him
[20:36] <mustangg> dayo2: so I guess I'd mistaken assumed (!) that I would be able to find info on this in faq/docs or whereever. :)
[20:37] <jado> hi, i'm trying to launch a file.jar with java -jar file.jar but i've got this : "No X11 DISPLAY variable was set, but this program performed an operation which requires it."
[20:37] <dayo2> mustangg: i see
[20:37] <khunt> is network manager the only prog for 3g?
[20:37] <jim_p> khunt, i hope not! any app that can do dialing and wireless will do
[20:38] <chmac> Ok, so it seems that I need to have a last.fm client installed...
[20:38] <mike12> hey anyone here kno how to remotly open a disc drive on a a computer....its my dads and i want to play a trick  on him since he grounded me
[20:38] <dayo2> mustangg: u could also check #ubuntu-server for more info on this subject
[20:38] <mzz> mike12: if you can ssh in the "eject" commandline utility will probably do the trick
[20:38] <jim_p> mike12, do you have ssh access on that pc?
[20:39] <mike12> no
[20:39] <mzz> mike12: ("man eject")
[20:39] <dayo2> mike12: u're courting more ground-time
[20:39] <khunt> jim_p, you know of one that is lightweight and easy to configure preferably with a data counter. google is not my friend today
[20:39] <mzz> mike12: if you don't have ssh access it's unlikely you can do anything
[20:39] <mike12> o ok
[20:39] <jim_p> mike12, then he is fortified in there
[20:39] <mike12> thaanks anyway
[20:39] <mzz> mike12: (think about it, being able to do that without ssh or equivalent access would be a bug)
[20:39] <jim_p> khunt, network-config maybe?
[20:39] <khunt> hmm
[20:39] <jim_p> khunt, its been some time since i last used it
[20:40] <jim_p> khunt, and wicd may do it too
[20:40] <khunt> or maybe i should install network-manager
[20:40] <Pilot_51> Is there any way to reinstall Ubuntu without formatting?
[20:40] <khunt> and just launch it on demand
[20:41] <jim_p> khunt, dunno. i am against nm use. the counter that you ask for makes things a bit more complex
[20:41] <Pilot_51> I ran into some trouble during upgrade from Hardy to Intrepid (system crash) and even though I can run it it's pretty screwed up
[20:41] <jim_p> Pilot_51, what exactrly is screwed up? xorg?
[20:42] <timposey> on ubuntu install 8.10 I am getting message crc error system halted
[20:42] <khunt> i am using wcid
[20:42] <mustangg> dayo2: thank you for the info. I  think I will do just that when I have a chance.
[20:42] <khunt> but that only does wireless
[20:42] <burkmat> Pilot_51, Well... I guess you could either just install on top of your current installation (would probably be bad), or run `sudo rm -rf /` to delete everything you have and then install on the "clean" partition? oO
[20:42] <dayo2> mustangg: u're welcome :-)
[20:42] <Pilot_51> well for one the quick search in synaptic is grayed
[20:42] <Pilot_51> bunch of errors in log
[20:42] <jim_p> khunt, i am out of ideas then
[20:43] <khunt> thing is i know network-manager works with no config
[20:43] <khunt> just plug it in
[20:43] <khunt> et voila
[20:44] <chumbo> Any one here knows how host a site with Xampp?
[20:44] <kristofer> hello. Does anyone know anything regarding adobe flash 10 and hardware acceleration issues? I'm getting really crappy performance when I go fullscreen. There isnt any difference if I use the "use hardware accell" option or not in the player applet.
[20:44] <Pilot_51> I don't think the update manager is finding updates either
[20:44] <burkmat> chumbo, Just start it up and it's ready to run? It's very plug'n play. :)
[20:45] <chumbo> burkmat, yes its runnig good the problem is any one cant access it.. just me and ppl in my lan
[20:45] <dayo2> see u guys later
[20:45] <Pilot_51> When I boot from the install CD and try to repair packages, it says the system is up-to-date and then asks if I want to proceed with the update
[20:45] <burkmat> chumbo, I'd suspect your problem is NAT. You're behind a router, right?
[20:46] <Pilot_51> When I proceed, it downloads a bunch of packages and then says nothing was updated
[20:46] <mikkelgj> Im curious about the minimal CD. Does that only install a very very limited basic install (which i want), or does it just download the whole default ubuntu installation?
[20:47] <stringchopper> I got a linux kernel from kernel.org.  I imported their key.    Do I create the sign. file myself with their key?
[20:47] <clayg> whenever i try to shutdown or access any of the parts there, even lock screen or logout, it takes 30 seconds or so and freezes the computer while it waits.  I can still shutdown through command line with no delay but I want ot be able to lock screen if i need to walk out of the room without waiting 30 seconds and basically telling my coworker i dont trust him
[20:48] <zand3r> Hi all... I've performed a CLI install using the Alternative CD and subsequently installed xorg and openbox however there's no xorg.conf being generated. The following URL implies that people suspect this is an error but I'm wondering if there is some way to automatically generate this? http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1043277
[20:48] <Pilot_51> So... Any way to reinstall over an existing installation as with Windows or is a format absolutely necessary?
[20:49] <z1pp3r> Im curious about the minimal CD. Does it only install a very very limited basic install (which i want), or does it just download the whole default ubuntu installation? The minimalCD page isnt very clear
[20:49] <shinagalated> anyone know what's going on with the new notification system in Jaunty?  Is that still going to be in Jaunty
[20:49] <bmorris> I have a network drive mounted using samba but I'm running into problems.. I get a permission denied error  every time I try and save a file.  I can open them fine though.  When I do an ls -l in the directory it says that I have all the correct permissions.. Does anybody know what could be going on?
[20:50] <kristofer> hmm... From googling it seems everyone seems to have bad performance in flash full screen unless they are equipped with a really fast computer. :(
[20:50] <z1pp3r> bmorris, maybe the samba server doesn't allow anyone write access to the share?
[20:51] <r00tintheb0x> Anyone have any experience w/Oracle ODBC?
[20:51] <bmorris> z1pp3r, how would I check that?  I have ssh access to the server
[20:52] <diginux> bmorris: is the share mounted as read only?
[20:53] <rakudave> !ot | r00tintheb0x
[20:53] <z1pp3r> bmorris, i haven't played around with samba for quite some time, but i believe its specified in the config file where you specified the share in the first place.
[20:53] <OsamaK> Hello, how can I build an up-to-date language for Ubuntu? I googled for that, and found nothing.
[20:53] <diginux> Jussel: whats up?
[20:53] <bmorris> diginux, I don't believe so
[20:53] <diginux> bmorris: can you creat a new file on the share?
[20:53] <Jussel> diginux: hey :)
[20:54] <Jussel> diginux: Updated Ubuntu to 8.10
[20:54] <adaptr> bmorris: read only  = yes/true/1
[20:54] <kristofer> Ok.. the solution for good fullscreen flash performance is... virtualbox.. that is insane. :)
[20:54] <Jussel> diginux: But still no sound through my Headphone
[20:54] <bmorris> diginux, no
[20:54] <z1pp3r> lol kristofer =)
[20:55] <kristofer> right...
[20:55] <diginux> Jussel: ugghhh, I am out of ideas then :( try posting to the forums, make sure to include the output of lspci
[20:55] <Jussel> diginux: ok thanks for your time / help :)
[20:55] <kristofer> Maybe it would work to do a WINE container for a windows firefox plugin ...
[20:55] <diginux> bmorris: did you mount from the command line or use somethign like thunar?
[20:55] <Xintruder> which command shows me how much ram is consumed?
[20:56] <^hashbang^> free
[20:56] <z1pp3r> kristofer, worth a try, now you know what to spend your weekend on =)
[20:56] <diginux> kristofer: i remember the einstein@home windows binary under wine ran faster than the native linux binary
[20:56] <bmorris> diginux, I have it in my fstab
[20:56] <anisfarhana> greetings
[20:56] <diginux> Xintruder: sudo apt-get install htop
[20:56] <z1pp3r> Xintruder, you can use htop
[20:56] <kristofer> diginux: which gcc version did you use?
[20:56] <bmorris> I'm looking at the share in my smb.conf file and it says that it's public and writeable
[20:56] <diginux> bmorris: copy and paste the line
[20:56] <dmphotography> Does anyone know of a program that does a more detailed report of Network History like System Monitor?
[20:56] <Xintruder> isn't there a default installed program to do so?
[20:57] <diginux> kristofer: it was a non opensource binary
[20:57] <anisfarhana> i have ispconfig installed with ubuntu , anyone can tell me where is server stored the incoming/outgoing mail from the server ?
[20:57] <bmorris> diginux, //<IP_ADDRESS>/workspace  /home/bmorris/workspace  cifs users,gid=1000,uid=1000,username=bmorris,password=password
[20:57] <z1pp3r> Xintruder, think "top" is installed by default, but it doesnt have pretty fancy colors like htop =P
[20:57] <dmphotography> Mainly that keeps track of daily bandwidth ussage for a web server.
[20:57] <diginux> bmorris: and those gid and uids are those of bmorris?
[20:57] <rakudave> Xintruder: "free -m"
[20:57] <Xintruder> does top show me how much ram is free, and how much is used?
[20:57] <kristofer> diginux: I suppose gcc doesn't optimize as well as visual c++ does out of the box. a poor built might suck.
[20:57] <bmorris> yep
[20:57] <dkg> Is there a difference in installing Intrepid from cd or upgrading from hardy?
[20:58] <dayo2> dmphotography: munin
[20:58] <z1pp3r> Xintruder, as rakudave said, "free -m" is probably better for just seeing ram usage
[20:58] <kristofer> diginux: Suns (non gcc-compatible) compiler is said to do great code though (even for linux).
[20:58] <diginux> bmorris: what are the perms on /home/bmorris/workspace?
[20:58] <dmphotography> dayo2: Thanks!
[20:58] <nomasteryoda|w> dkg, speed of installing is much faster
[20:58] <nomasteryoda|w> in my experience
[20:58] <dayo2> dmphotography: u're welcome. :-)
[20:59] <bmorris> diginux, full read/write/execute
[20:59] <Xintruder> htop, does it give me results once like top, or keep monitoring untill i stop it?
[20:59] <Guest18209> salve a tutti
[20:59] <thehook> got network issues anyone? http://www.snotr.com/video/1084
[20:59] <diginux> bmorris: so its 777 ?
[20:59] <bmorris> yeah
[20:59] <z1pp3r> Im curious about the minimal CD. Does it only install a very very limited basic install (which i want), or does it just download the whole default ubuntu installation? The minimalCD page isnt very clear
[20:59] <diginux> bmorris: have you tried chmod -R 777 /home/bmorris/workspace just to make sure?
[20:59] <carpeliam|pidgin> !sound
[21:00] <dkg> nomasteryoda: other than that, is it just as safe to install hardy then upgrade? I've tried to burn intrepid 3 times, with no joy...  I'd prefer a "clean" install but is an upgrade prety much the same? (any disadvantages?)
[21:00] <diginux> dkg: i do upgrade all the time, never have a problem
[21:01] <bmorris> diginux, hmm I can create a file from the command line
[21:01] <dkg> diginux: thanks. That's what I'll do :)
[21:01] <bmorris> When I try and save one in eclipse I get permission denied though
[21:01] <r00tintheb0x> rakudave I mean installing ODBC on Ubuntu to connect to an Oracle Database.
[21:01] <diginux> bmorris: are you running eclipse as a normal user? can you edit a newly created file from the command line using a text editor liek nano?
[21:01] <r00tintheb0x> That does have to do with Ubuntu
[21:01] <thehook> z1pp3r: i have no idea my self, but can i please have the link for the page?
[21:01] <diginux> dkg: enjoy
[21:02] <rakudave> r00tintheb0x: sorry ^^
[21:02] <z1pp3r> thehook, sure, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD
[21:02] <bmorris> diginux, I can edit/save a file using nano/vim/whatever but if I open up the file in gedit or eclipse I can't save
[21:02] <diginux> bmorris: so you can edit *already existing* files using nano ?
[21:03] <z1pp3r> thehook, maybe it's more clear to you than me...
[21:03] <bmorris> diginux, I can create them using nano as well
[21:03] <thehook> z1pp3r: no its not :s but i'm afraid it looks like it just downloads everything..
[21:03] <rakudave> !oracle | r00tintheb0x, ok then
[21:03] <thehook> but someone here shuld now
[21:03] <z1pp3r> ugh
[21:03] <z1pp3r> hehe yeah, thats what i figured
[21:03] <z1pp3r> not much luck yet though =/
[21:04] <diginux> bmorris: but you can edit already existing files from the command line, right?
[21:04] <thehook> z1pp3r: you know, if noone knows I just gonna test it :P
[21:04] <bmorris> umm let me check
[21:04] <r00tintheb0x> rakudave, its okay.
[21:05] <thehook> give me a couple of minutes ok z1pp3r ?
[21:05] <bmorris> diginux, actually no that gives me an error as well
[21:05] <z1pp3r> thehook, that would be pretty cool =). I probably could do that as well, but then i'd have to backup stuff and i'm too lazy to do all that for nothing =)
[21:05] <hamdi> dy
[21:05] <z1pp3r> thehook, sure thing
[21:05] <hamdi> hi
[21:05] <diginux> bmorris: ok, sounds like you have uid/guid mismatch
[21:05] <Jerusalem420> !seen hashbang
[21:05] <Jerusalem420> ^hashbang you around?
[21:05] <diginux> bmorris: id do an ls -l and look at the perms and ownership diff between already existing files and files you just crated
[21:06] <bmorris> diginux, here are the two lines from my ls -l  test33.txt I just created and web was already there -rwxrw-rw- 1 bmorris bmorris   5 2009-02-12 16:00 test33.txt
[21:06] <bmorris> drwxrwxrwx 7 bmorris bmorris   0 2009-02-02 09:53 web
[21:07] <meshuggah> anybody know an easy and great way to add a 3rd harddisk in a computer case that only have 2 slots for them?
[21:07] <diginux> bmorris: web is a dir not a file
[21:07] <bmorris> woops one moment
[21:08] <diginux> bmorris: is this samba server running on linux or windows?
[21:08] <guntbert> meshuggah: please ask in #hardware
[21:08] <bmorris> diginux, ubuntu 8.10
[21:08] <dury> hi there all :) how is it going?
[21:08] <bantu_> hey peeps, Ok. I need help with the mknod command
[21:08] <diginux> bmorris: why not just use nfs?
[21:08] <dury> tomorrow I'm going to buy a new box which motherboard you suggest guys 32 or 64 bit
[21:09] <thehook> z1pp3r: its installing now, obviously its a lot more to download so i dont know anything yet :P but what are you gonna use it for if i may ask
[21:09] <meshuggah> guntbert : thank
[21:09] <guntbert> !#ubuntu | dury
[21:09] <morfdor> Hi everyone. Ive been happily using ubuntu for a year now but decided its time to format and reinstall.. I have my home and / root in different partitions. How can i install ubuntu on the same root partition and keep on using my same home partition without deleting its files? Thanks
[21:09] <bantu_> My live c.d. doesn't create the eth0 device node
[21:09] <guntbert> meshuggah: good luck :)
[21:09] <bmorris> diginux, the little I know about samba is more than I know about nfs :P
[21:09] <bmorris> ohh I think I got it
[21:10] <bantu_> I can't get the major minor part
[21:10] <Blatz> Hello, when I try to get some updates with the update manager, I get "Could not download all repository indexes" here is more specific error:  http://paste.ubuntu.com/117441/
[21:10] <bmorris> stupid of me.. the actual files were only readable and I didn't see that because everything in the top level directory that I was looking at were directories
[21:10] <bantu_> Here's the command I write
[21:10] <thehook> morfdor: Hi, that would be no problem at all.. In the installer you just choose to format the /root partition and make sure it does not format the /home
[21:10] <diginux> bmorris: samba can be a pain, nfs is super easy
[21:10] <cosset> руские?
[21:10] <bmorris> thanks a lot for all of your help!
[21:10] <bantu_> mknod -c /dev/eth0
[21:10] <bmorris> works perfectly now
[21:11] <bantu_> Help please?
[21:11] <thehook> morfdor: should be pretty straight forward, just download the desktop iso and burn it, then boot from it, then choose manual partitioning
[21:11] <morfdor> thehook so i can keep on using my same home parition or will another one have to be created and ill have to transfer over the files from the old home parition? thanks
[21:12] <thehook> you can keep the same partition yes :)
[21:13] <thehook> morfdor: yes, but i would recommend to use a different username on the second install just to make sure none of the setting are kept from the last install
[21:13] <guntbert> Blatz: are you on 8.04 or on 8.10?
[21:13] <linux_guy> can i 'restart' the panel?  only bits and pieces are showing up correctly
[21:13] <cambazz> hello. how do I set which modules to load at boot - or which modules not to?
[21:13] <cambazz> I dont want to load the pci_hotplug module
[21:14] <cambazz> but /lib/modules file has no reference to it
[21:14] <clayg> whenever i try to shutdown or access any of the parts there, even lock screen or logout, it takes 30 seconds or so and freezes the computer while it waits.  I can still shutdown through command line with no delay but I want ot be able to lock screen if i need to walk out of the room without waiting 30 seconds and basically telling my coworker i dont trust him
[21:14] <Blatz> guntbert: 8.04
[21:15] <mcstinky> hey all, how do I install a package with a dependency error; the installed version I have is too new, it requires an older one
[21:15] <smultron> can you only have 1 extended partition? can you setup all 4 to be 'extended'?
[21:15] <z1pp3r> thehook, okay. Well, my laptop is kindda old and the default installation is too beefy to run smoothly. I love the dpkg package system, but i'm not very fond of debian anymore. So i was hoping i could customize my ubuntu install to only include the bare minimum
[21:16] <thehook> z1pp3r: i understand! i love it too :) hope it is just installing the bare minimum now, cause i've been considering to install a "customized" version my self :)
[21:16] <guntbert> Blatz: it seems, you tried to add a "wrong" CD to your sources.lst. Do you need the CD?
[21:16] <meshuggah> why when I install packages, i dont get a beautiful icon in the menu? i dont even know where they install
[21:17] <z1pp3r> thehook, yeah, that would be great if that was possible
[21:18] <Blatz> guntbert: I don't really know what "wrong" CD addtion would be.  No I guess I don't need the CD
[21:18] <thehook> z1pp3r: what I did on the very early versions of ubuntu was using the server iso, but now its pretty different kernels and stuff..
[21:18] <guntbert> meshuggah: for the simple cases you can use Applications/Add-Remove..., that tells you what and where...
[21:18] <thehook> z1pp3r: 96% of installing the base system it says
[21:19] <z1pp3r> must be pretty minimal, or you have an awesome internet connection =P
[21:19] <meshuggah> like : i installed angband, zangband, cpuid, any many many others, but they arent on the menu
[21:19] <meshuggah> i know they locate i think in /usr
[21:19] <nsadmin> can I do things with upstart like say "sometimes I have no network on boot, when that happens don't start things that need it"
[21:19] <Blatz> guntbert: what should I do to resolve the issue?
[21:19] <dury> I know >	[#ubuntu] dury: Ubuntu is a complete Linux-based operating system, freely available with both community and professional support. It is developed by a large community and we invite you to participate too! - Also see http://www.ubuntu.com
[21:19] <Blatz> guntbert: edit souces.list?
[21:19] <Digitalhighway> I can't edit my sources.list file
[21:20] <thehook> z1pp3r: just a regular 4mbps
[21:20] <guntbert> Blatz: if you don't need it you can disable it in System/Adminstration/SoftwareSources (If I remember correctly)
[21:20] <dury> just want an opinion that's all
[21:20] <dmphotography> I formated an external harddrive to ext3, which is showing to be /dev/sdc1 . . how do I access it to add files?
[21:20] <nsadmin> donuts are good! want another opinion?
[21:20] <guntbert> dury: ask in #ubuntu-offtopic please
[21:21] <Blatz> guntbert: Is this error keeping me from online updates?
[21:21] <Digitalhighway> how do you chance the permission of a source.list file???
[21:21] <guntbert> Blatz: I don't know, sorry
[21:21] <Digitalhighway> I am using pico in ubuntu 8.04
[21:21] <nsadmin> in what way? you use chmod (info coreutils, look at file permissions)
[21:22] <z1pp3r> thehook, you were never asked which packages you wanted? What do you think would happen if it did not have internet connection, would it even complete?
[21:22] <guntbert> !who | nsadmin ;-)
[21:22] <thehook> z1pp3r: yep, seems to be what we want ;) i got a list of things i want to install now debian style, but unfortunately i cant use the arrow keys in the vm, but i can see different server stuff and edubuntu desktop :P
[21:22] <thehook> z1pp3r: and kde desktop
[21:22] <z1pp3r> uuuh
[21:22] <nsadmin> ok...
[21:22] <z1pp3r> that sounds very nice
[21:23] <thehook> z1pp3r: i agree!

[21:23] <ExAstris> Hi all. I'm having some issues with Madwifi drivers. I built madwifi-hal (10.5.6), latest build, and set it up. It was working yestarday. I have a Macbook Pro, with a built in Altheros wireless card. The wireless device shows up in dmesg | grep ath and lsmod | grep ath.
[21:23] <meshuggah> guntbert : do you know a program for ubuntu that is like cpu-z?
[21:23] <ExAstris> However, the wireless card does not appear in iwconfig, and I cannot use it.
[21:23] <ExAstris> Any ideas on why?
[21:24] <Digitalhighway> sudo do exactly?
[21:24] <nsadmin> Digitalhighway what user are you logged in as?
[21:24] <nsadmin> perhaps the user cannot edit the file because it doesn't own it
[21:24] <yomm> I replaced my 4 300gig SATA driver with four 1TB drives , and ubuntu only recognizes 2 out of four drives , fdisk gives strange 'sd' output and gparted doesn't see the drives either , I have multiple '/dev/sd*'s but i cannot access those 2 drives ...
[21:24] <Digitalhighway> i am assuming root
[21:24] <z1pp3r> Digitalhighway, 'sudo' = do something as super user (root)
[21:24] <Digitalhighway> ok
[21:24] <guntbert> meshuggah: sorry, what does cpu-z do?
[21:24] <ExAstris> Additionally, there's a wlan module active, which I cannot remove - it says it is in use when I do a modprobe -r
[21:25] <Digitalhighway> i will try the sudo command thanks
[21:25] <thehook> Digitalhighway: gksudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list
[21:25] <meshuggah> guntbert : it say everything you have in your computer : cpu, motherboard, ram
[21:25] <Digitalhighway> gk?
[21:26] <nsadmin> Digitalhighway what editor do you like to use?

[21:26] <meshuggah> guntbert : bios, every material things
[21:26] <pisecx> How can I make this folder 774, for example?
[21:26] <ExAstris> Can anyone help me?
[21:26] <nsadmin> perhaps you can sudo (that editor) /etc/apt/sources.list
[21:26] <pisecx> even chmod don't work
[21:26] <Digitalhighway> pico
[21:26] <guntbert> meshuggah: you want sysinfo
[21:26] <nsadmin> pisecx why doesn't it work?
[21:26] <pisecx> seems like I have to edit fstab, but has no idea what option should I add/change
[21:26] <guntbert> !info sysinfo | meshuggah
[21:27] <djhash> yomm: does bios see all four drives?
[21:27] <pisecx> nsadmin: it works, but apache has no access to it
[21:27] <meshuggah> guntbert : ok, thank you :)
[21:27] <lyhana8> hi, why when i try to do `kate ./myfile` as root i got this error :
[21:27] <lyhana8> kate: cannot connect to X server :0
[21:27] <guntbert> meshuggah: np :)
[21:27] <pisecx> nsadmin: apache manual says it need access for All
[21:27] <pisecx> nsadmin: in terms of file system permissions
[21:27] <Digitalhighway> it worked
[21:27] <pisecx> nsadmin: but folder has access 770
[21:27] <Digitalhighway> thanks
[21:27] <nsadmin> lyhana8: try ssh root@localhost
[21:27] <nsadmin> instead of su
[21:28] <guntbert> meshuggah: you will find it in applications/system tools :)
[21:28] <meshuggah> guntbert : because i want to know which kind of rambus I have, rdram800 but i am not sure.....i need more than 256mb!! :)
[21:28] <z1pp3r> 256mb should be enough for everybody
[21:28] <z1pp3r> =P
[21:28] <lyhana8> nsadmin: do a ssh on my own laptop o_O ?
[21:28] <meshuggah> it is not enough here
[21:28] <meshuggah> :)
[21:28] <pisecx> nsadmin: maybe umask? it is not 007
[21:29] <mcstinky> can anybody here tell me if wine will run under the UNR?

[21:30] <thehook> yes it will :)
[21:30] <waltao> OI
[21:30] <mcstinky> great, thanks
[21:30] <nsadmin> lyhana8 yes, the ssh connection forwards x (at least it does under debian) then you can use gui thingys
[21:30] <thehook> np
[21:30] <Hieronymus> Hoi.
[21:30] <ExAstris> I would appreciate some help...
[21:30] <Hieronymus> Hallo?
[21:30] <Oni> Does BSD work on Ubuntu yet?
[21:31] <nsadmin> the important part is that the process that runs the x server is wrapped in a ssh-agent
[21:31] <z1pp3r> Oni, ehhh?
[21:31] <meshuggah> guntbert : i am installing it now....so i have another question again
[21:31] <Hieronymus> I just entered a different room. I tried to type there.
[21:31] <Hieronymus> And it appeared here.
[21:31] <Oni> FreeBSD, does it work on Ubuntu yet?
[21:31] <lyhana8> Oni: BSD as FreeBSD ?
[21:31] <meshuggah> guntbert : do you know a program like acid music, but for ubuntu?
[21:31] <Hieronymus> How's that.
[21:31] <lyhana8> Oni: it's an OS by himself
[21:31] <z1pp3r> Oni, Ubuntu is an OS. FreeBSD is an OS. None of them work on one another
[21:31] <Oni> Yeah but does it work on Unbuntu
[21:31] <^hashbang^> Oni: http://www.freesoftwaremagazine.com/articles/comparing_linux_and_freebsd?page=0%2C0
[21:32] <z1pp3r> except for maybe through a VM like virtualbox
[21:32] <z1pp3r> Oni, you're not making any sense
[21:32] <Oni> Can i use WINE to install BSD on Ubuntu
[21:32] <z1pp3r> no
[21:32] <Oni> Or do I have to use WUBI?
[21:32] <meshuggah> oni : ??
[21:32] <lyhana8> Oni: try virtualbox
[21:32] <ExAstris> Oni, freeBSD is an operating system. It runs your computer for you. Ubuntu is an operating system as well. You can't have both at the same time.
[21:32] <thehook> hehehe, have you tried running windows in linux? natively of course :p
[21:32] <^hashbang^> Oni. Dude, your joking right? wine = windows, BSD = unix, and ubuntu = linux
[21:32] <ExAstris> (at least, not booted at the same time, except via VM)
[21:32] <Necrogamemaster> I've already registered why am I still here?
[21:32] <Oni> yeah I'm joking :(
[21:33] <guntbert> meshuggah: have you synaptic installed? it has a comprehensive search, several categories...

[21:33] <Pinkopf> Hey!   I've looks at forums and usually that helps, but I can't seem to get this ALSA or PulseAudio thing to work
[21:33] <meshuggah> guntbert : lol...yeah...but i prefer direct comment/opinion/suggestion directly from the keyboard  of a living animal
[21:34] <eeyore> hi all
[21:34] <^hashbang^> djhash: =)~
[21:34] <thehook> Oni: can you please explain what youre meaning?
[21:34] <Oni> I was joking lol
[21:34] <Guest79574> hiya
[21:34] <z1pp3r> thehook, i think he was kidding =)
[21:34] <ZummiG777> Question: I'm running Ubuntu 8.04 and I'm using the distributed nvidia drivers - however, I'm getting a greenish checkerboard effect across the screen almost as a secondary layer - does anybody know what could be causing this?
[21:34] <thehook> Oni: thats good i was starting to be worried there for a while :P
[21:34] <z1pp3r> thehook, btw thx for testing out the minimal cd, i'll give it a go during the weekend
[21:34] <guntbert> meshuggah: understandable, but this is a *very* busy support channel, try it in #ubuntu-offtopic   :)
[21:34] <Oni> Ubuntu is Lunix in my opinion anyway
[21:34] <ExAstris> I would appreciate someone helping me with my wifi issue. I have a Macbook Pro, bout a year and a half old, and have switched to madwifi as the ath9k drivers were incredibly slow. It was working yestarday, after I built and configured the madwifi modules, but today it is not. THe devices appear under lsmod and dmesg, but not under iwconfig. Any ideas?
[21:34] <clayg> whenever i try to shutdown or access any of the parts there, even lock screen or logout, it takes 30 seconds or so and freezes the computer while it waits.  I can still shutdown through command line with no delay but I want ot be able to lock screen if i need to walk out of the room without waiting 30 seconds and basically telling my coworker i dont trust him
[21:35] <thehook> z1pp3r: no problem ;)
[21:35] <^hashbang^> Oni: I said that already =)
[21:35] <Oni> haha
[21:35] <^hashbang^> Oni.  Just stay on topic, please
[21:38] <ExAstris> Ah, it appears to be working nao. No clue what I did, though x.x I hope I don't have this issue when I reboot again

[21:44] <yoyit2> guntbert: thx
[21:44] <unop> serge48876, depends on what you want to do.. 128MB at the very minimum is what i would guess
[21:44] <serge48876> how much videoram is required for running ubuntu?
[21:44] <Pinkopf> I have an Asus P5Q-Deluxe. Asus support says Realtek ALC1200
[21:44] <Pinkopf> So... I have that. :P

[21:45] <korogiannos> What can I use to resize my ntfs partition from within a hardy live cd boot? (Tried gparted, and despite having the option to do so, doesn't)
[21:45] <nsadmin> korogiannos perhaps it would be easier to resize it from windows?
[21:45] <korogiannos> it's XP, not vista :(
[21:45] <yoyit2> guntbert: theres like no one on that channel
[21:46] <nsadmin> still you should be able to resize it
[21:46] <korogiannos> nsadmin: or are there other, free, tools to do that in XP?

[21:46] <jove> thehook, after upgrade xml from synaptic, where should I launch it ?
[21:46] <Pinkopf> Ubuntu has detected a bunch of devices though, so I guess it has the drivers down
[21:46] <nsadmin> but you could go for the gusto and back up the whole partition, delete, make new (smaller), restore
[21:47] <Pinkopf> It's just that I'm limited to using OSS
[21:47] <Improv> If I accidentally remove something in /etc/init.d/ how do I get it back?
[21:47] <korogiannos> nsadmin: any other options (from within linux)?
[21:47] <diginux> Improv: reinstall the program you deleted
[21:48] <Improv> diginux: I already tried removing and reinstalling openvpn, and the init script did not come back.
[21:48] <titan_ark> hey :)
[21:48] <nsadmin> korogiannos I dunno what can do it
[21:48] <serge48876> yoyo clickme
[21:48] <diginux> Improv: apt-get reconfigure openvpn maybe?
