[10:42] <SkyBlader> did that work for you, Cew27?
[10:42] <anonA1> If so, I shall leave again :(
[10:43] <SkyBlader> there was an unwritten rule like such? I thought it was just people trying to make things easier for newbies like me...
[10:43] <c1|freaky> is someone using openfire and knows how to recover a forgotten password
[10:43] <c1|freaky> ?
[10:43] <chazco> anonA1 - Where abouts in the CD would they go?
[10:43] <SkyBlader> and I was very happy to know that....
[10:43] <anonA1> SkyBlader well, when I first started helping out here a couple years ago that was the rule
[10:43] <biouser> I really need a little command line program o convert .ps to .png
[10:43] <anonA1> chazco ah, well that is an exercise left up to the reader
[10:44] <chazco> heh, they dont appear to be anywhere obvious
[10:44] <anonA1> chazco you would have to replace the old packages with the updated packages
[10:44] <SkyBlader> anonA1: thing is most of the stuff on the wiki and the such is commandline... I'd rather not have to deal with that, personally...
[10:44] <chazco> Yep... need to find them first :)
[10:44] <biouser> hehe, nevermind, I'm good
[10:44] <z0man> How easy is it to setup wifi nowadays?
[10:44] <Cew27> SkyBlader:yes but i cant see the gdesklets process and i know its running
[10:45] <Jezz> so ubuntu is the easiest distro to learn linux?
[10:45] <RingTailedFox> (in a network where some clients are linux and some windows, server is linux) what are the ways by which i can restrict any pc to boot or login unless its authenticated from the server. and the uptime for each pc or login/logof time is recored too. 2. no other computer can access internet that is not in the server list?
[10:45] <anonA1> SkyBlader don't be afraid of learning how to use the command line. Once you do, you'll see how easy it really is
[10:45] <anonA1> Jezz at present, yes
[10:45] <z0man> Believe so Jezz
[10:45] <bulkah> anyone here know  which package must install for my hp dv6385eu .my graphic card is geforce go 7200
[10:45] <chazco> Ah... think i may have found it
[10:45] <|thunder> Jezz; yep
[10:45] <unenough> Starnestommy, ok good. now how do i view a list of held-back packages?
[10:45] <anonA1> chazco excellent
[10:45] <anonA1> saves me typing
[10:45] <z0man> Slackware is an alternative possibly.
[10:45] <SkyBlader> anonA1: I'm not afraid of using it. I'm afraid I might end up screwing up my system that way actually
[10:45] <Jezz> better than opensuse?
[10:45] <SkyBlader> Its like using a root login
[10:45] <z0man> But stick with Ubuntu :)
[10:45] <z0man> Yes better than!
[10:45] <Jezz> ok :D
[10:46] <z0man> One time, Suse had the winning distro.
[10:46] <z0man> But then came Ubuntu
[10:46] <Jezz> yeah on my main pc my vista crashed and i cant install xp coz i dont have a floppy drive and need sata drivers
[10:46] <anonA1> SkyBlader well only if you are root, or prefacing commands with "su" ... and besides, you need to accept that while learning you'll screw something up
[10:46] <Jezz> and i dont have a vista cd, i eh borrowed one lol
[10:46] <Jezz> for installing it
[10:46] <z0man> Redhat had the almighty first but then Suse came....
[10:46] <anonA1> SkyBlader luckily all the packages and OS are free, and easy to install ;)
[10:46] <Cew27> SkyBlader: why cant i see the gdesklets command ?
[10:46] <Jezz> so the only OS that  i can install now is linux -.-
[10:46] <z0man> Not nessarcy Jezz
[10:46] <z0man> U can dual boot
[10:47] <z0man> U can install VMWARE :)
[10:47] <Jezz> :D
[10:47] <Jezz> cool
[10:47] <bahr> Jezz: that's a blessing :)
[10:47] <SkyBlader> Cew27: sorry, but I don't really know what a gdesklet is...
[10:47] <Jezz> lol
[10:47] <Jezz> is it
[10:47] <z0man> Vmware can be a little tricky....So try having a dual boot.
[10:47] <Jezz> good that i also have a mac :)
[10:48] <z0man> Then if u feel adventurous go shove VMWare on both Vista and Ubuntu
[10:48] <adam> can i run mac os leopard on vmware?
[10:48] <bahr> why using M$ when you can use ubuntu :D
[10:48] <anonA1> hmm vmware is fairly straight forward except on VIsta atm
[10:48] <SkyBlader> anonA1: my problem stems from configuring stuff rather than installing them, mostly.
[10:48] <Jezz> no my vista crashed lol
[10:48] <Cew27> SkyBlader: its just a widget on the desktop, i havet he app running and i can see the widgets btu i cant see the process
[10:48] <Jezz> cant even load in safe mode
[10:48] <Jezz> so i reformatted but cant install xp
[10:48] <z0man> I use M$ windows as a gaming machine :P And if any other software that don't run on Wine
[10:48] <Jezz> so now im stuck
[10:48] <anonA1> SkyBlader yeah, the command line and vi rocks for configs. But that is just my opinion. Others for some strange reason prefer emacs *shudder*
[10:48] <anonA1> No editor holy wars!
[10:48] <z0man> Wine is also a solution :)
[10:48] <z0man> !wine
[10:48] <ubotu> WINE is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine for more information, and see !AppDB for application compatibility.
[10:48] <Yashy> Is there a place to get a legal vmware for ubuntu withour giving out the address of your firstborn?
[10:49] <z0man> Vmware server :) Is free for personal use
[10:49] <Jezz> and vmware for linux is free?
[10:49] <Quambo> yo... does the ubuntu livecd come with an init script for ssh? I'm installing gentoo, but of course their livecd won't work, so I need to do it in a chroot from this disk.
[10:49] <anonA1> Yashy what is this 'legal' you refer to?
[10:49] <Yashy> M$ office work easy/well out of wine?
[10:49]  * Quambo knows nothing about ubuntu init.
[10:49] <SkyBlader> for example right now I've got this issue where I need to login(I don't even know what the login is) if I want to access my shared from a windows pc
[10:49] <z0man> VMWare is FREE for personal use
[10:49] <bulkah> please help
[10:49] <Jezz> but i have ubuntu 7.04 cd and opensuse 10.2, which one should i try?
[10:49] <z0man> Go register and get your keys
[10:49] <SkyBlader> I just want to know the login/perhaps change it to something easy.
[10:49] <anonA1> Jezz ubuntu
[10:49] <z0man> UBUNTU!
[10:49] <Yashy> Jezz: you're in #ubuntu?
[10:49] <anonA1> Jezz then do the update
[10:49] <bulkah>  anyone here know  which package i  must install for my hp dv6385eu .my graphic card is geforce go 7200
[10:50] <Jezz> cant d/l another coz teh mac doesnt have a burner
[10:50] <anonA1> SkyBlader you've installed samba?
[10:50] <Jezz> and my pc doesnt have a os right now
[10:50] <Jezz> lol
[10:50] <anonA1> Jezz install ubuntu then update
[10:50] <z0man> Bulkah.....[Restricted Hardware] :)
[10:50] <anonA1> Jezz now!
[10:50] <z0man> Use that one
[10:50] <Jezz> ok so i can update to 7.10 from 7.04?
[10:50] <z0man> infact go........>System->Admin->Restricted Hardware
[10:50] <anonA1> Jezz not exactly, but for your purposes you'll be fine
[10:50] <Jezz> ok
[10:51] <Jezz> then ima install ubuntu
[10:51] <anonA1> Jezz you'll get the latest kernel when you update, and the updated/upgraded packages
[10:51] <crash89> ciao a tutti
[10:51] <anonA1> Jezz well get to it!
[10:51]  * z0man pats Jezz on the back
[10:51] <Jezz> :)
[10:51] <z0man> Make sure DEFRAG FIRST!
[10:51] <SkyBlader> anonA1: I think I have.
[10:51] <Jezz> ok brb, hopefully on ubuntu :)
[10:51] <bulkah> anyone here know  which package i  must install for my hp dv6385eu .my graphic card is nvidia geforce go 7200
[10:51] <z0man> So you don't end up corrupting your windows
[10:51] <SkyBlader> I can access windows shares from my ubuntu pc, but they can't access mine
[10:51] <emja> anyone know of a faq to get wifi working during boot (rather than after the user has logged on)?
[10:51] <Yashy> From a fresh install I have 3 issues (xubuntu 64bit nvidia). 1) usb keyboard and/or mouse freeze a few minutes into using the OS
[10:52] <adam> is there a channel specifically for vmware?
[10:52] <z0man> hehe
[10:52] <anonA1> SkyBlader ah well you've got samba installed then
[10:52] <z0man> #vmware
[10:52] <adam> thanks
[10:52] <Yashy> Also, fan is on continous which it wasn't in M$. I'm assuming GPU or HDD fan
[10:52] <IppatsuMan> aloha
[10:52] <SkyBlader> yeah, from their pc when they try to access mine they get asked for some login or something
[10:52] <chocolatewithmin> hello, does anybody know why sometimes ubuntu restart x when I try to use a fullscreen application as a game?
[10:52] <SkyBlader> its weird
[10:53] <bulkah> z0man: what can i do it
[10:53] <z0man> what can i do it?! huh?
[10:53] <anonA1> SkyBlader then samba isn't set  up properly. This is where you'll have to edit config files
[10:53] <z0man> oh your hardware
[10:53] <anonA1> chocolatewithmin resolution probs
[10:53] <SkyBlader> :(
[10:54] <anonA1> SkyBlader there are many guides available though. It is fairly easy
[10:54] <anonA1> SkyBlader google it. Just make sure you can use some editor (use the GUI one, I can't remember what it is)
[10:54] <SkyBlader> gedit?
[10:54] <anonA1> SkyBlader this is a common problem
[10:54] <z0man> Did you manage to install the Nvidia driver via the system/admin/Restricted Hardware?
[10:54] <anonA1> yeah that one
[10:54] <chocolatewithmin> anonA1: probs=problem? (sorry, i'm spanish)
[10:54] <anonA1> chocolatewithmin yes (sorry, i'm australian :))
[10:54] <SkyBlader> anonA1: well its because theres no real option available on the shared folders gui
[10:55] <xnos> yop all
[10:55] <anonA1> SkyBlader these are networked windows shares? Not on the same computer, right?
[10:55] <Andycass1> Is there a way to see all the cronjobs/startup commands that are executed when my ubuntu boots?
[10:56] <z0man> CTRL+ALT F1
[10:56] <z0man> during boot, log in
[10:56] <mildner> please any help to connect 2 pc via network
[10:56] <chocolatewithmin> anonA1: :p, but 1024x768 is an high resolution, depth is set as 24 bits, but i don't understand waht is 70hz, 60 hz (refresh rate?), maybe the problem is i have to change the hz rate?
[10:56] <m8ram> Andycassl: have a look at /etc/rcX.D
[10:56] <m8ram> where X is the runlevel you boot
[10:56] <Kate_mins> hello, i installed on my ubuntu an apache server & i have folder with mp3 files with hebrew filenames , but still with the browser i cant see the names well , does apache have some enconding configuration file ?
[10:56] <z0man> to get back to GUI mode, press CTRL+ALT+F7
[10:56] <m8ram> this shows all the init scripts that are run when you boot
[10:57] <SkyBlader> nope, one's on a laptop connected via wifi, and another's on another pc. All connected via the same wireless router(the pcs are connected via a wired connection though)
[10:57] <bulkah> yes but . it does't  right work
[10:57] <z0man> Does work right....Hmmm Then it might be wise to compile manually...[Don't be scared :)]
[10:57] <z0man> Follow this....../me looks
[10:58] <anonA1> chocolatewithmin your xorg.conf file needs to have the proper entries. In particular it'll need an entry for 60 hz, which lots of games use in fullscreen mode
[10:58] <m8ram> hi, I upgraded from feisty to gutsy yesterday and my Xorg config is all messed up
[10:58] <SkyBlader> chocolatewithmin: Hz-> higher = better
[10:58] <SkyBlader> unless its an lcd monitor(still I choose higher when on one)
[10:58] <erikja> !mythtv

[10:58] <z0man> #nvidia
[10:58] <m8ram> can somebody help me to get X (and GDM) back to a working config?
[10:59] <anonA1> SkyBlader well you can try mount it manually first
[10:59] <DVDmannen>  /msg ubotu etiquette
[10:59] <z0man> Check those guys along theway :)
[10:59] <z0man> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/Nvidia?highlight=%28nvidia%29
[10:59] <SkyBlader> anonA1: the problem is when accessing my share on windows...
[10:59] <chocolatewithmin> SkyBlader, AnonA1: to ensure game compatibility what i should choose?, and Skyblader, yes, i have lcd
[10:59] <z0man> First step i can you is, download the driver from Nvidia....I32 one
[10:59] <anonA1> SkyBlader like "mkdir -p /mnt/winshare" "mount -t smbfs -o username=user,password=mypassword //windowsserver/sharename /mnt/winshare"
[10:59] <SkyBlader> I can access it via network on my own pc...
[10:59] <SkyBlader> hmm
[11:00] <xnos> ya des Fr ici?
[11:00] <anonA1> of course you can mount on whatever directory you want
[11:00] <mildner> any help to connect ubuntu to windows pc
[11:00] <DVDmannen> Finns det någon svensk här?
[11:00] <xnos> hishoire que je me face pas chier
[11:00] <anonA1> mildner samba
[11:00] <Zedde> Anyone has any idea ?  When I'm in terminal session ( in x )  and press alt+arrow  I get 3C3A3C3D3B3D3A3C3B3D  any settings I nee dto change ?
[11:00] <anonA1> !samba

[11:00] <unenough> how do i view a list of held-back packages?
[11:00] <z0man> Then read the INSTALL, which will probably saying someting like..."./configure" -> "make" -> "make install"
[11:00] <DVDmannen> !nfs
[11:00] <ubotu> nfs is the network file system. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SettingUpNFSHowTo for information on installing and configuring NFS.
[11:00] <z0man> But any further help is best from #nvidia ppl
[11:00] <SkyBlader> chocolatewithmin: Hz is not an issue IIRC
[11:00] <DVDmannen> !css
[11:00] <ubotu> For playing DVD, see http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/video.html - "libdvdcss2" can be found at !Medibuntu or (for Feisty and earlier) http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages - Try k9copy (available in !Universe) for backing up DVDs
[11:00] <mildner> anonA1: how do I start samba....sorry
[11:01] <Andycass1> Where can i see the pureftpd start script?
[11:01] <z0man> I wish you the best of luck :)
[11:01] <m8ram> Andycass1: in /etc/init.d probably
[11:01] <z0man> I've had my fair share of video driver trouble.
[11:01] <z0man> They do get better :)
[11:01] <anonA1> mildner um, there is a gui tool ... i'll have to ask. I'm a command line nazi
[11:01] <DVDmannen> !Universe
[11:01] <ubotu> The packages in Ubuntu are divided into several sections. More information at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories and http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/components - See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RecommendedSources for the recommended way to set up your repositories
[11:02] <SkyBlader> anonA1: I think I'll deal with it later though...
[11:02] <anonA1> mildner i mean you'll have to ask, pappy
[11:02] <Andycass1> m8ram: /etc/init.d/pure-ftpd is a empty file, though i can restart/stop/start it from command line??
[11:02] <chocolatewithmin> SkyBlader: issue IIRC? I don't understand
[11:02] <chocolatewithmin> sorry
[11:02] <unenough> when trying to dist-upgrade, it says "the following packages have been kept back"
[11:02] <DVDmannen> !macrovision
[11:02] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about macrovision - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[11:02] <SkyBlader> reading right now... *has a heaadache*
[11:02] <unenough> how do i mark them for upgrade?
[11:02] <m8ram> Andycass1: you can also check the output of dpkg -L pureftpd
[11:02] <SkyBlader> chocolatewithmin: IIRC = if I remember correctly.
[11:02] <anonA1> Andycass1 do you mean the config file, or the init file?
[11:02] <m8ram> it will list all files in this package
[11:02] <Andycass1> anonA1: init
[11:02] <chocolatewithmin> SkyBlader: ok,:)
[11:02] <biouser> y'=y(1-y)
[11:03] <anonA1> anyway, i didn't come here to help :(
[11:03] <biouser> oops
[11:03] <m8ram> Andycass1: seems strange that it would be empty
[11:03] <m8ram> could something have corrupted it?
[11:03]  * z0man wishes someone answer his question
[11:04] <anonA1> well it's init.d
[11:04] <anonA1> for one thing
[11:04] <myxb> hi! i tried to install latest alsa drivers but it wont install properly. tried to fall back to version .16 and lost all sounds in the system. any help?
[11:04] <Andycass1> m8ram: it displays the same /etc/init.d/pure-ftpd path.
[11:04] <LoLLo> does someone have installed internet explorer SEVEN on ubuntu ? ? ?
[11:04] <Slue_Gniffer> What's a good video editing program?   I just joined...
[11:05] <anonA1> LoLLo you might be a sexual pervert, so no :(
[11:06] <LoLLo> Oo ??????
[11:06] <Marbug> hi, the updater said that there was a new version of amsn, so I installed it, but after the installation I couldn't install the previous version, and it saiuys it conflicts with libc6, but I can't install that neither because it conflicts with tzdata, what should I do? :s
[11:06] <up_the_irons> i just set up my Canon i70 printer on Ubuntu 7.10, it prints fine, but what it prints is too small (looks like a scaled down page).  Any tips?
[11:06] <anonA1> my pappy said never trust italians
[11:06] <Andycass1> m8ram: uhm, it seems that i cant use the stop/start arguments on it either, im thinking its using some other way to start
[11:06] <LoLLo> omg ... however ... how can i get installation file of ie7 ?
[11:06] <anonA1> Andycass1 reinstall it
[11:06] <anonA1> LoLLo short answer is you can't
[11:06] <LoLLo> auauauauauaua how did u know it ?
[11:06] <anonA1> ie7 has many hooks into the WinAPI
[11:07] <LoLLo> hmmmmmm OKZ
[11:07] <m8ram> Andycass1: if it's empty it can't do anything, that's why I'm suspecting it's corrupt...
[11:07] <anonA1> you could try with Wine or VMware though obviously
[11:07] <anonA1> Andycass1 reinstall it ffs!!!!!!!!! you are making m8ram angry :(
[11:07] <anonA1> it's not like it's going to cost you anything
[11:07] <LoLLo> ok but i must have an installation file that would be runned with wine .....
[11:07] <anonA1> LoLLo ciao bella
[11:07] <Marbug> is it possible tot make the interface of gnome like kde ?
[11:07] <LoLLo> ciao cara
[11:08] <m8ram> annonA1: no I'm not angry at Andycass1, just at what the upgrade did to my system...
[11:08] <anonA1> puta
[11:08] <LoLLo> listen to meeeeee
[11:08] <LoLLo> ok but i must have an installation file that would be runned with wine .....
[11:08] <anonA1> m8ram yeah i understand
[11:08] <Sarve> how can we see list of other channel?
[11:08] <anonA1> LoLLo why the hell do you want to run ie7 anyway?
[11:08] <jesse> vlc, mplayer and totem all crash within seconds of opening avis
[11:09] <anonA1> anyway, i'm not a big fan of pureftpd
[11:09] <LoLLo> 'cause an english course to be installed needs a ie version higher than 6 ...
[11:09] <LoLLo> hihihi
[11:09] <jesse> running gutsy, and it all used to work
[11:09] <jesse> sigh
[11:09] <faileas> LoLLo: firefox+user agent switcher
[11:09] <bulkah> z0man: i m using ubuntu language- tr package. is this problem restricted driver. what do you mean ?
[11:09] <faileas> opera comes with one built in otherwise
[11:09] <LoLLo> uhuhuhuhuh what is user agent switcher ? ? ?
[11:09] <chocolatewithmin> it's possible to install word 2000 on wine, because i can't, and wine db say it's possible
[11:10] <Andycass1> m8ram: It does not use init.d to launch itself, it is running fine - just have to figure out where does it launch from
[11:10] <jesse> bulkah -merhaba
[11:10] <anonA1> LoLLo ah ok. Well even with everything you can do, it still might not work properly. Sadly the best advice is to boot windows :(
[11:10] <anonA1> I like vsftpd, but don't get angry if you don't
[11:11] <bulkah> merhaba jesse
[11:11] <faileas> LoLLo: it basically is a extention that tells your browser to pretend to be another one
[11:11] <unenough> wwhen doing a "dist-upgrade", it says that 3 packages are "kept back". how do i mark them for upgrade?
[11:11] <anonA1> Andycass1 well do a "dpkg -L pureftpd"
[11:11] <anonA1> Andycass1 find what files are installed
[11:12] <LoLLo> anon yep ... i type that in the terminal .... $: wget http://www.tatanka.com.br/ies4linux/downloads/ies4linux-2.5beta2.tar.gz            $: tar zxf ies4linux-2.5beta2.tar.gz                       $: cd ies4linux-*                        $: ./ies4linux --beta-install-ie7
[11:12] <gold44> how to tell machine wireless software to join a "network name" upon gnome start up?
[11:12] <m8ram> Andycass1: I just installed pure-ftpd on this system and the init script is far from empty: wc -l /etc/init.d/pure-ftpd
[11:12] <m8ram>      100 /etc/init.d/pure-ftpd
[11:12] <anonA1> LoLLo that wouldn't help you anyway
[11:12] <LoLLo> but with the last string it says that there's an error with the downloading
[11:12] <anonA1> the pure-ftpd init.d script is one of the worst btw
[11:12] <m8ram> Andycass1: and I can't think of a way (other than manually starting) how it could be running after a reboot without an init script...
[11:13] <anonA1> LoLLo can't you boot windows, or you are stuck with linux?
[11:13] <LoLLo> so even if i install ie7 the installation won't run ?
[11:13] <Andycass1> m8ram: it would take me another day to set up virtual users, i think ill rather find it by hand
[11:13] <Andycass1> m8ram: reinstall is not always the best option :P
[11:13] <anonA1> Andycass1 you probably aren't reinstalling properly .. you have to get it to overwrite the old files. Can't remember the command
[11:13] <LoLLo> i've left windows 2 mounths ago and i won't return !!!
[11:13] <anonA1> LoLLo there is a very good chance it wont
[11:14] <faileas> LoLLo: i already gave you a solution ;p
[11:14] <Jezz`> lo
[11:14] <anonA1> LoLLo many of the things are dependant on ActiveX
[11:14] <LoLLo> ok np , it was an english course .... my english is good anyway hihihihi
[11:14] <Jezz`> lollo on what distro are you now then?
[11:14] <anonA1> Jezz` did you install ubuntu?
[11:14] <LoLLo> UBUNTU
[11:14] <m8ram> Andycass1: ??? I don't know pure-ftpd but I guess you could move the file/db whatever that holds the users and restore it after reinstalling?  I agree that reinstalling isn't the best solution but it looks like your installation is corrupt
[11:14] <Jezz`> i mean version
[11:14] <Jezz`> 7.10?
[11:14] <LoLLo> 7.10
[11:14] <Jezz`> ok 7.04 install almost done
[11:15] <anonA1> Andycass1 first purge the old installation. Then install a new one
[11:15] <Jezz`> then ima gonna connect that pc to this monitor and hope you help me install nvidia drivers lol
[11:15] <m8ram> Andycass1: another option would be to replace the init script with a working version: but if you don't know how it got corrupt in the first place there might be other files missing...
[11:15] <anonA1> what problem do you have with that
[11:15] <DB44> hi, i'm still having trouble connecting to my wi-fi on my laptop (it's WPA protected), why is that ? (ubuntu 7.10 using wicd, on windows xp it works perfectly) ?
[11:15] <m8ram> Andycass1: perhaps the disk was filled at some point?
[11:15] <anonA1> don't replace the init script
[11:15] <anonA1> Jezz` not to hard to install the nvidia drivers
[11:16] <anonA1> DB44 hmm, well there is a fair chance that linux just hates you
[11:16] <anonA1> DB44 that sometimes happens
[11:16] <bulkah> jesse where u from
[11:16] <DB44> anonA1, well it's been lots of years of tough love, but still
[11:16] <LoLLo> IS THERE A PROGRAM THat check the useless folders/system files and removes it ? like CCleaner for WinZoZ ? ? ? ? ?
[11:16] <anonA1> DB44 anyway, can't help, not using wi-fi
[11:16] <anonA1> !wi-fi
[11:16] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about wi-fi - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[11:16] <DB44> any tips on getting my wifi to work properly with encrypted networks ?
[11:17] <anonA1> !wifi
[11:17] <ubotu> Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[11:17] <anonA1> ^^
[11:17] <z0man> Aw I'm sorry Bulkah, I thought u had trouble installing an Nvidia driver :P
[11:17] <anonA1> LoLLo yeah, there is ... one sec, i'll try to remember it
[11:17] <anonA1> it's a good 'un
[11:17] <LoLLo> yeeeee thx
[11:17] <anonA1> like deborphan or something ... one sec
[11:17] <faileas> DB44: mine just seems to work... so no help there
[11:18] <DB44> i moved from network manager to wicd, it helped
[11:18] <m8ram> Andycass1: you might also want to install debsums and see if other files are corrupt...
[11:18] <DB44> but it's still very flaky
[11:18] <anonA1> it is deborphan
[11:19] <DB44> well i'm gonna read those docs
[11:19] <anonA1> LoLLo or even better for you ...http://www.ubuntugeek.com/cleaning-up-all-unnecessary-junk-files-in-ubuntu.html
[11:19] <LoLLo> ok thx !!! are there other programs for the safety of the system to install ?
[11:19] <DB44> laters
[11:19] <anonA1> LoLLo yes. BUt you'll have to find them yourself ;)
[11:20] <z0man> LoLLo can you answer me::::: :)
[11:20] <LoLLo> uhuhuhuh thx ... but ... right now i'm safe from viruses right ?
[11:20] <z0man> question is.......
[11:20] <anonA1> LoLLo sure
[11:20] <LoLLo> uhm ...
[11:20] <z0man> Question is :"How easy is wifi setups on Ubuntu"?
[11:20] <anonA1> !wifi
[11:20] <ubotu> Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[11:20] <anonA1> z0man see?
[11:21] <Steve176> z0man I've been trying for 3 days and have had no luck!!!
[11:21] <LoLLo> OO i don't know ... i'm a questioner too
[11:21] <anonA1> can i pipe these puppies?
[11:21] <anonA1> !wifi | z0man
[11:21] <ubotu> z0man: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs

[11:21] <anonA1> ewwwww
[11:22] <burofab> Hi everybody i'm facing with some troubles installing ubuntu on my laptop can i get some help?
[11:22] <Steve176> People keep saying all you do is allow restricted drivers and all sources but it hasn't worked
[11:22] <z0man> Guess it hasn't changed much then :P
[11:22] <z0man> Wifi still new in the kernel area
[11:22] <Zedde> Hmmm
[11:22] <Steve176> native drivers didnt work
[11:22] <z0man> Well sorry no ....:P
[11:22] <z0man> just the setup systems aren't
[11:22] <anonA1> Steve176 well have you allowed the restricted drivers and all sources?
[11:22] <Steve176> still struggling with ndiswrapper and trying to find a good driver
[11:22] <Steve176> afaik
[11:23] <anonA1> then installed the drivers?
[11:23] <anonA1> because they aren't in the 'normal' repositories
[11:23] <m8ram> anybody know a good ATI forum I might get help for my Xorg troubles?
[11:23] <Steve176> just go into synaptic and check everything
[11:23] <bullgard4> What is a 'software bus'? (http://linux.slashdot.org/linux/08/02/02/2219233.shtml)
[11:23] <anonA1> hmm, well sometimes slapping your box violently will work. Of course, I accept no responsibility for any damage or loss of data
[11:24] <Steve176> then searched synaptic for the bcm stuff and applied
[11:24] <Steve176> lol
[11:24] <burofab> Is there a kernel option to disable wireless card recognition?
[11:24] <anonA1> burofab probably
[11:24] <anonA1> burofab in fact, yes
[11:24] <anonA1> you can disable whatever you like, but you'll have to rebuild the kernel
[11:24] <Steve176> anonA1 is there another way to "install the drivers"?
[11:24] <anonA1> and if that kernel pops ... well you don't want to know
[11:24] <anonA1> Steve176 um, manually
[11:25] <anonA1> Steve176 but sorry, i don't use wifi for a whole bunch o' reasons
[11:25] <anonA1> i actually like to slap ppl who do
[11:25] <anonA1> packet loss ain't my bag, pappy
[11:25] <burofab> but  i did not install ubuntu yet...i'm booting from cd
[11:25] <burofab> in order to install it but it gets stucked because of my broken wireless card
[11:26] <anonA1> burofab what is your real question? (and don't make it "what is it like to be a woman?")
[11:26] <Steve176> anonA1 I find the eth cable trips people up in starbucks ;)
[11:26] <anonA1> burofab take it out?
[11:26] <anonA1> Steve176 lol, i getcha
[11:26] <anonA1> burofab or disable it in bios
[11:27] <DB44> ok, i've figured to fix my wifi i need to do https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/iwlwifi_Intel_3945_4965/gutsy?highlight=%28WifiDocs%2FDriver%29
[11:27] <burofab> can i disable wireless card recognition during live cd start?
[11:27] <anonA1> Steve176 i connect through my cellphone, so sorry, can't help
[11:27] <DB44> but http://wiki.debian.org/iwlwifi tells me to install package "firmware-iwlwifi" where do i get it ?
[11:27] <anonA1> burofab probably not. You can probably disable it in bios, if that doesn't scare you
[11:28] <anonA1> apt-get intstall firmware-iwlwifi?
[11:28] <DB44> doesn't exist
[11:28] <burofab> is that the only way ?
[11:28] <anonA1> burofab it is the easiest/best way
[11:28] <Squawk> hey fellas, anyone know why my usb keyboard would not be detected after booting, but works if I unplug my mouse (also usb)?
[11:28] <DB44> i think it exists only in debianunstable resp ?
[11:28] <DB44> how do i check / get it from there ?
[11:28] <burofab> ok, thanks
[11:29] <anonA1> DB44 have you enabled all repositories?
[11:29] <DB44> anonA1, all ubuntu ones
[11:30] <anonA1> DB44 do a "apt-cache search iwlwifi"
[11:30] <DB44> i dont want to enable debian unstable
[11:30] <DB44> i already did, got nothing
[11:30] <DB44> (remember this is from the debian wiki, not ubuntu)
[11:30] <anonA1> you'll do as your told, young man!
[11:30] <DB44> i did
[11:30] <anonA1> well, did you do the apt search?
[11:31] <anonA1> and?
 i already did, got nothing
[11:31] <anonA1> oh
[11:31] <anonA1> sorry, i'm getting used to ignoring you
[11:31] <anonA1> well that sucks
[11:31] <anonA1> ah, as you said you didn't enable all repositories?
[11:31] <anonA1> becasue unfortunately it may be in unstable
[11:32] <Zedde> Hmm anyone seen that problem before, tried to google it and the ubunu wiki page with no luck
[11:32] <anonA1> i can't check myself, because i'm using the unholy
[11:32] <DB44> enabled propsed and backports, dont have it as well
[11:32] <Squawk> Zedde, post the problem again, cant see it
[11:33] <Zedde> Anyone has any idea ?  When I'm in terminal session ( in x )  and press alt+arrow  I get 3C3A3C3D3B3D3A3C3B3D  any settings I need to change ?
[11:33] <anonA1> DB44 well it's in debian packages ...
[11:33] <DB44> can i add it temp for one operation via a command ilne ?
[11:33] <Squawk> Zedde. maybe a key binding?
[11:33] <anonA1> ah you want to get 3C3A3C3D3B3D3A3C3B3DE instead?
[11:34] <anonA1> DB44 you could, but i couldn't tell you how
[11:34] <Zedde> no When I'm runninr irssi you shift window with alt+error
[11:34] <Zedde> arrow
[11:34] <DB44> anonal, which resp to add ?
[11:34] <anonA1> i thought it was alt-number
[11:34] <anonA1> DB44 i dunno
[11:34] <Squawk> Zedde, check the gnome key bindings. though personaly I use alt-number to change with irssi
[11:34] <DB44> so how do you know it's in deb
[11:34] <Zedde> no alt+"arrow key"
[11:35] <anonA1> DB44 because i can use the google
[11:35] <DB44> tnx...
[11:35] <anonA1> http://packages.debian.org/firmware-iwlwifi
[11:35] <anonA1> as you can see, it's unstable
[11:36] <anonA1> them's the breaks until the next ubuntu release, i believ
[11:36] <anonA1> e
[11:36] <Zedde> Squawk: alt+number works if I don't use tabs ( know it's a short key thing need to be changed ) but when I over 15 windows
[11:36] <DB44> hopefully it works
[11:36] <DB44> i already manually d/led alsa and compiled it to get my sound card working
[11:36] <anonA1> DB44 it seems that it's working for others
[11:36] <Zedde> it works if I use windows and use putty into my ubuntu system
[11:36] <Squawk> Zedde, alt-a is window 11, alt-w is windows 12
[11:36] <DB44> they dont have my wifi card
[11:36] <DB44> what a troll...
[11:36] <anonA1> hopefully you won't get caught into dependency hell
[11:36] <Squawk> Zedde, its gnome keybindings
[11:37] <anonA1> DB44 who's the troll, pappy?
[11:37] <Squawk> Zedde, "system, preferences, keyboard shortcuts"
[11:37] <ian2> just gonna ask where can i find themes for gfxboot, BESIDES gnome-look.org and gnome art
[11:37] <ian2> good day
[11:37] <ian2> :)
[11:37] <DB44> well, here goes nothing
[11:38] <XeNix> Hello al i have problemes with grub who can help me pliz
[11:38] <anonA1> DB44 well if your card isn't listed, i don't like your chances :(
[11:38] <Squawk> XeNix, just ask the qeustion
[11:38] <anonA1> ian2 i doubt if anyone is going to answer that
[11:38] <DB44> we'll see soon
[11:38] <ian2> why?
[11:38] <XeNix> when i hit ubuntu partition they said enable to mount the partition
[11:38] <anonA1> except me, of course
[11:38] <Andycass1> Where can i see which commands are launched when my ubuntu boots?
[11:38] <anonA1> DB44 well if it does, add it to the list :)
[11:38] <ian2> are they afraid? eheheh
[11:38] <Squawk> XeNix, hit?
[11:38] <anonA1> Andycass1 you mean what services are started?
[11:39] <Cromag> !ma
[11:39] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ma - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[11:39] <ian2> how about you anon1?
[11:39] <XeNix> cause i had create a new partition and when i rebooted it make grub loading error 64 so i boot with the live cd and i do grub -recheck
[11:39] <blahbo> hey all
[11:39] <Andycass1> anonA1: something like that, plus cronjobs etc...
[11:39] <Squawk> XeNix, what is the new partition?
[11:39] <XeNix> Squawk : i mean i choose
[11:39] <iositd> Andycass1, system-->Preferences-->Session
[11:39] <anonA1> Andycass1 well cronjobs will be in the crontab
[11:39] <anonA1> and ... too late iositd told you the GUI way
[11:40] <XeNix> i hqd just delete /dev/sda1
[11:40] <ian2> does anyone know where to find good gfxboot themes?
[11:40] <iositd> anonA1, sorry :p
[11:40] <blahbo> my system behaves weird after upgrading to 7.10 -- firefox takes about 1 minute to come up... and when i click the shutdown butten on the upper right corner, the system just freezes up. generally, there are lags everywhere, also doing basic stuff like 'ls' in shell
[11:40] <chazco> Hi... is runnign apt-get upgrade the same as letting Update manager run?
[11:40] <Squawk> XeNix, have you removed your ubuntu install?
[11:40] <iositd> !themes | ian2
[11:40] <ubotu> ian2: Find your themes at: http://www.gnome-look.org - http://art.gnome.org - http://www.kde-look.org - http://kubuntu-art.org - http://themes.freshmeat.net/browse/58/ - http://www.guistyles.com - https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Artwork/ - Also see !changethemes and https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuEyeCandy
[11:40] <blahbo> any ideas what could be wrong?
[11:40] <anonA1> you could use BUM of course
[11:40] <XeNix> no
[11:40] <anonA1> cool name
[11:40] <XeNix> Squawk : no lol
[11:40] <m8ram> Andycass1: if you enabled bootlod in /etc/default/bootlogd you should also get the output in /var/log/boot.log
[11:40] <anonA1> iositd don't apologise , I was going to lead him to the evil CLI way
[11:40] <Squawk> XeNix, re-install grub?
[11:40] <floppyshuriken> when I boot ubuntu, the screen is so magnified, that I can't seen the ubuntu booting image
[11:40] <ian2> iosidt: what do mean !themes?
[11:41] <floppyshuriken> what should I do?
[11:41] <iositd> ian2, look what ubotu said after me
[11:41] <Squawk> XeNix, if you did something to /dev/sda1 mabye you destroyed your mbr
[11:41] <ian2> oh ok
[11:41] <iositd> anonA1, ah right ... don't even know that way myself
[11:41] <anonA1> XeNix and that could be exciting!
[11:41] <ian2> ive been most of the sites, gonna try whats left , thanks guts
[11:41] <ian2> guts - guys
[11:41] <Andycass1> anonA1: Well, theres no trace of pureftp, although i did find out that it uses /usr/sbin/pure-ftpd & to start. I have to find out where does it get its arguments like -j and so on...
[11:42] <XeNix> Squawk : im on slackware fine now
[11:42] <Bluesoul> hello
[11:42] <Bluesoul> guys
[11:42] <XeNix> ubuntu say enable to mount the partition
[11:42] <blahbo> after 7.10 upgrade: firefox start-up takes 1min and freezes X... clicking on shutdown icon freezes X.. any ideas?
[11:42] <m8ram> oops, quite more than I intended...
[11:42] <anonA1> Andycass1 i know it's not the default install, but try vsftpd
[11:42] <Bluesoul> any chinese
[11:42] <Squawk> XeNix, enable or unable?
[11:42] <anonA1> Andycass1 just don't tell anyone i told you
[11:42] <ian2> another thing, is there such a thing in linux, like norton utilities?
[11:42] <Enselic> Could anyone see what  the default for scroll history is on gnome-terminal?
[11:42] <XeNix> unable Lol :s
[11:42] <iositd> blahbo, try running firefxo from a console and see if it gives you any other information
[11:43] <Squawk> XeNix, wrong partition type in fstab?
[11:43] <anonA1> ian2 um, what specific thing did you want to do?
[11:43] <blahbo> iositd okay, let me check
[11:43] <anonA1> ian2 there are many ways to achieve what norton utilities do
[11:43] <m8ram> ian2: is that a virus scanner you are looking for? or does that include more?
[11:43] <Squawk> XeNix, can you mount the parition from slackware?
[11:43] <ian2> or anything that fixes or optimize my system
[11:43] <XeNix> no
[11:43] <XeNix> wait
[11:43] <ian2> more like tuneup utilities in windows
[11:43] <m8ram> ian2: what do you want to fix or optimize?
[11:44] <m8ram> ian2: I don't believe there's anything generic
[11:44] <anonA1> Andycass1 anyway, i like update-rc.d
[11:44] <anonA1> but it's evil i tells ya! evil!
[11:44] <anonA1> ian2 is there anything specific you want to do?
[11:44] <blahbo> iositd: just figured that running firefox as root is really quick. however, running firefox as a user, it just hangs in there
[11:44] <XeNix> Squawk : no  :s
[11:44] <anonA1> ian2 speak now or forever hold your tongue
[11:44] <z0man> Gee thx AnonA1 :P
[11:45] <XeNix> Squawk : on fdisk i have them all on i mounted the partition when i had boot with ubuntu live cd
[11:45] <Squawk> XeNix, if slackware cant mount it then there is obviously something wrong with it
[11:45] <ian2> cause i've been installing and uninstalling stuff in my pc
[11:45] <z0man> LoLLo already showed me that:P
[11:45] <iositd> m8ram, afaik you don't have to optimize your system. There is no registry which you have to clean out, the apt system takes care of it's self and it doesn't get fragmented due to superior file system :-)
[11:45] <anonA1> z0man you're welcome, i don't know what for, but you're very welcome
[11:45] <twosouls82> how can I list packages I installed from the "hardy" repo? (am using gutsy)
[11:45] <Eds> So should I be installing 7.10 or Hardy?
[11:45] <LoLLo> Oo ?? ?? ??
[11:45] <Squawk> XeNix, pm me the command you used to mount it
[11:45] <m8ram> blahbo: try creating a new profile for your user it might be a problem with your profile
[11:45] <compwiz18> !hardy | Eds
[11:45] <ubotu> Eds: Hardy Heron is the code name for the next release of Ubuntu (8.04-LTS), due April 2008 - For more info, see: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardyHeron - CONSIDER IT TO BE PRE BETA (ALPHA) SOFTWARE - Discussion and support in #ubuntu+1, NOT #ubuntu
[11:45] <ian2> in windows when you do something like that it slows down the system
[11:45] <anonA1> ian2 not something you have to worry about in *nix
[11:46] <compwiz18> ian2: installing/uninstalling won't significantly impace the speed in Ubuntu :)
[11:46] <anonA1> ian2 in that respect, anyway
[11:46] <ian2> i hope it makes is SOMEWHAT clearer :P
[11:46] <blahbo> m8ram okay, thanks....... will try
[11:46] <compwiz18> impace? impact ;)
[11:46] <anonA1> ian2 you see, it doesn't have that nasty registry thing :)
[11:46] <iositd> blahbo, i don't really know why it hangs. You can try to reinstall it from synaptic and see if it helps as it can be corrupted/missing user files
[11:46] <ian2> oh ok
[11:46] <m8ram> iositd: well it appears that it isn't true that the filesystem doesn't get fragmented, but the impact on performance is a *LOT* smaller
[11:46] <blahbo> iositd okay, thanks will do that too
[11:46] <anonA1> the registry is evil i tells ya! evil!
[11:46] <ian2> so linux doesn't need one in the first place?
[11:46] <ian2> am i right?
[11:46] <compwiz18> ian2: yep
[11:46] <anonA1> ian2 whole different system
[11:46] <Cew27> hi everyone i just looked on the nvidia website and they only appear to have their driver for 8800 ultra on 64 bit amd do they do a 6 bit intel one ?
[11:46] <iositd> m8ram, ok it gets fragmented a whole lot less :-)
[11:46] <Squawk> ian2, antivirus? forget it in linux
[11:47] <anonA1> doesn't rely on some weird assed pseudo-database
[11:47] <LKC> guys qucik question. human is a theme for what? Metacity?
[11:47] <compwiz18> LKC: I think so
[11:47] <iositd> LKC, what ext? link?
[11:47] <ian2> i know virus isnt a thing in linux, that's why i am migrating
[11:47] <ian2> to linux
[11:47] <iositd> sidenote: someone's hitting the wall here with a hammer or so :S i live in a flat and it's annoying!
[11:47] <anonA1> well, there are viruses, and exploits and bugs etc
[11:47] <m8ram> iositd: probably, not my strongest point anyway, haven't bothered to look into it because as you said it's a whole different system :)
[11:47] <Bluesoul> but some software cant run inlinux
[11:47] <anonA1> iositd i hate that
[11:47] <Andycass1> Whats equipotent to /etc/rc.d/rc.local in ubuntu?
[11:48] <m8ram> Squawk: not if you also have WIN boxes on your lan!
[11:48] <Squawk> virus's do exist, but the damnage they can do is minimal unless you run everything as root, and you have to work damn hard
[11:48] <iositd> m8ram, it doesn't even matter which file system you choose, they are all better compared to windows :p
[11:48] <LKC> iositd human is the deful them installed for ubuntu and im wanting top change it im just wanting to confirm if its a metacity theme or not
[11:48] <filthpig> hi, I can't boot linux isos in qemu.. They either complain about no cdrom or just throws me into some shell purgatory.. Seems nobody's awake @ #qemu :(
[11:48] <iositd> anonA1, tell me about it =,=
[11:48] <ian2> bluesoul: that's the only downside to linux, but hey
[11:48] <Cew27> hi everyone i just looked on the nvidia website and they only appear to have their driver for 8800 ultra on 64 bit amd do they do a 6 bit intel one ?
[11:48] <Squawk> m8ram, i run clamscan under gentoo to check the samba share from my xp box
[11:48] <ian2> if i learn photoshop, i can learn gimp also
[11:48] <ian2> :)
[11:48] <iositd> Cew27, you can't use the default restricted drivers?
[11:48] <m8ram> iositd: I agree, most stuff is better than in Linux, just spend last night trying to write a DVD n a friends Win XP box, when I left the disk was written but couldn't be read....
[11:49] <iositd> LKC, i'm not sure ...
[11:49] <anonA1> Andycass1 well it's /etc/init.d
[11:49] <Zedde> Squawk: Hmm can't finde anything
[11:49] <m8ram> but that doesn't help me with the fact that I now no longer have a working X anymore...
[11:49] <Cew27> iositd: i havent finished my system yet im waiting on mobo im just wonderig if i can run 64 bit with my set up
[11:49] <iositd> m8ram, dvd burning from iso is just double click the iso on a clean system ... and install k3b (yeah ... just a single command for that) to burn it :-)
[11:49] <ian2> goodbye to everyone, thanks for the help
[11:49] <anonA1> Andycass1 but you've already been poking around in there
[11:49] <Zedde>
[11:50] <Squawk> Zedde, other than gnome keybindings not sure, maybe have a look at your xorg conf?
[11:50] <XeNix> Squawk: so ???
[11:50] <iositd> Cew27, afaik it is supported as someone else i know also has that
[11:50] <Zedde> Squawk: I can take a peek there
[11:50] <m8ram> iositd: well we wer trying to write a huge bunch of images to a DVD, Win doesn't know much about isos....
[11:50] <anonA1> Zedde don't take a pee in there!
[11:50] <anonA1> oh, peek
[11:50] <m8ram> iositd: and I like the command line more...
[11:50] <iositd> m8ram, if you have 2 drives, even the live cd can do it faster ... :p
[11:50] <Zedde> anonA1: haha
[11:50] <anonA1> m8ram good man
[11:50] <Cew27> iositd: whata afaik?
[11:51] <iositd> Cew27, afaik = as far as i know
[11:51] <m8ram> anon1: thx

[11:52] <Zedde> I tried to install the putty simmulation, it works well there but I can't change the size of the text area. The window it salef I can change ( there problem seom settings but no menus )
[11:52] <anonA1> iositd that's what i do
[11:52] <anonA1> why would you install putty on *nix?
[11:53] <anonA1> the whole damn thing is a putty
[11:53] <Zedde> just testing diffrent terminals
[11:53] <Squawk> Zedde, tbh im guessing at the location as gentoo is my main os (installed ubuntu yesterday as a test), but probably /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[11:54] <iositd> anonA1, eluveitie good enough? :P
[11:54] <rjune> dpkg runs a script to configure ldap when slapd gets installed, where can I find that script?
[11:54] <anonA1> iositd sounds a little ... european
[11:55] <iositd> anonA1, idk where they come from ....
[11:55] <anonA1> I just use Chemical Bros. Crystal Method and a little bit of Dizzee Rascal mixed in for annoyance
[11:55] <clarezoe> my sound recorder doesn't work, but I can call in skype, can anyone help me?
[11:55] <anonA1> it's the deep bass you see ... the frequency travels nicely through the walls and floor

[11:56] <pequatre_> hi. i need some help. I'm using the webui and i can't find where you set the ports for emule (i.e 4662 and 4672)
[11:56] <Dr_willis> webui for emule?
[11:57] <anonA1> I had to google eluveitie but liked what I read "Celtic pagan folk metal with melodic death metal influences" lol
[11:57] <pequatre_> Dr_willis: yes
[11:57] <iositd> anonA1, folk metal seems to travel quite well through walls etc on my volume ...
[11:57] <pequatre_> Dr_willis: no i mean mldonkey
[11:57] <anonA1> I will illegally download some immediately!
[11:57] <anonA1> i mean legally!
[11:57] <anonA1> legally!!
[11:57] <Lettuc3> how do i connect my nokia 3110c phone via bluetooth in wammu?
[11:58] <iositd> anonA1, i love folk metal <3
[11:58] <pequatre_> Where do i set the networks ports in mldonkey (linux) ?
[11:58] <iositd> anonA1, oh no wait! we're talking offtopic here! that's not what this channel is for!
[11:58] <anonA1> iositd i know.  Is this an appropriate to place to beg for help with a Ubuntu desktop bug/issue/problem/misconfiguration/me just being daft?

[12:00] <iositd> !ask | rachel84
[12:00] <ubotu> rachel84: Please don't ask to ask a question, ask the question (all on ONE line, so others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely answer. :-)
[12:00] <Turgon> Hello. I have tried to load the module gspca to be able to use my usb webcam, as I was in Feisty, but I get this error message: "FATAL: Error inserting gspca (/lib/modules/2.6.22-14-generic/kernel/drivers/usb/media/gspca.ko): Unknown symbol in module, or unknown parameter (see dmesg)" The pertinent dmesg output can be seen here: http://pastebin.com/m2a306081 .  First I tried the module which came with Gutsy, and then I downloaded and compiled the one
[12:00] <Turgon>  from the driver's home page: http://mxhaard.free.fr/spca5xx.html ; but the error stayed the same. What am I doing wrong? Thanks a lot for your time and work.
[12:00] <anonA1> iositd well depending on how much I like eluveitie, you may have made my day too
[12:00] <anonA1> rachel84 just ask
[12:01] <iositd> anonA1, imho they're the best folk metal band i know off
[12:02] <rachel84> Right! Will do! I've got a problem with user switching. When I try to switch user I just get a blank screen. Sometimes I get the black screen when I first switch, sometimes the first switch works and get a black screen when I try to switch back to the first user. I'm running Gnome with Compiz on an Intel 910GL card. Trouble is, I'm not really sure where to look to start diagnosing the thing.
[12:03] <iositd> we've kind of put the channel offtopic it seems. ... back to helping oflks!
[12:03] <iositd> rachel84, is there any kind of error message? can you switch to a terminal when the screen goes blank?
[12:04] <rachel84> Oh... and when I get the black screen I can here the log-in box appear and type a password and hear the Ubuntu log-in music. I can ctrl-Alt-F1 to get a terminal, but I can't see any error messages anywhere (probably not looking in the right place, though)
[12:05] <iositd> rachel84, have you tried to go back to the terminal you're having the login screen on? (usually it's the 7th one)
[12:05] <Squawk> rachel84, dmesg or have a look in /var/log/somethingorother.log
[12:05] <rachel84> Yep.  (I'll probably disconnect from here in the process, but I'll be back.)
[12:07] <killer> Squawk : can u help me pliz ?
[12:07] <Squawk> killer, no idea, what do you need help with?
[12:07] <iositd> rachel84, ps aux | grep compiz --> kill the one with the highest mem usage (mine is for example around 40 meg)
[12:07] <iositd> !ask | killer
[12:07] <ubotu> killer: Please don't ask to ask a question, ask the question (all on ONE line, so others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely answer. :-)
[12:07] <killer> how to recover that
[12:07] <killer> :s
[12:07] <anonA1> ah, iptables ... the deal breaker with me and ubuntu :(
[12:07] <timucin> I have 4 servers on local ip and one ubuntu server with 13 puplic ip and one local ip on second nic. I need to make the routing for the web and database servers on this ubuntu server.
[12:08] <iositd> killer, define "that"
[12:09] <Squawk> timucin, 13 public ip's. Wow. Ok do you understand iptables and just need pointers, or need help with a total solution?
[12:10] <timucin> a total solution will be asking too much. but after googling for one week and a deadline for tomorrow, a small example solution that I can edit for my setup will be excellent.
[12:10] <aca_> hello
[12:10] <Squawk> timucin, have you ever set up iptables rules before?
[12:10] <iositd> anonA1, difference between ubuntu and windows on a laptop: windows: 2 hours top, uses swap because 3gb ram does get full, hd got full just after installing a few programs ...
[12:10] <Squawk> timucin, just so I know where im starting
[12:10] <killer> i had delete a partition /dev/sda1 and when i had reboot / grub block "error 64"/ i had reboot with live CD and i had do grub --recheck " after when i choose ubuntu parition it say unable to mount parition .
[12:11] <Squawk> killer, I told you before (I got you now), can you mount it with slackware? if you cant then the partition is borked
[12:11] <timucin> no, I have no experience with iptables before.
[12:11] <iositd> anonA1, linux: 3 hours usage, hardly uses mroe then 500meg ram, and after isntalling a lot of programs it uses a total of .... *wait for it*
[12:11] <iositd> 26gb ^_^
[12:11] <timucin> currently, I'm using ipcop but I had to put an ubuntu server instead.
[12:12] <Squawk> timucin, ok then I dont have the hour or two spare to get you right through it, however I can give you some pointers. il pm you
[12:12] <timucin> I wrote the details on ubuntu forums : http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=706113
[12:12] <rachel84> I'm back. Killing compiz while the screen was black had no efect
[12:12] <sofiankr1> how do I know which video card I'm using?
[12:12] <iositd> rachel84, have you tried to restart gdm/kdm (whichever one you use)
[12:13] <anonA1> iositd 26GB of ram?
[12:13] <killer> Squawk : what i can do now ?
[12:13] <CorruptTerrorist> !md5
[12:13] <ubotu> To verify your Ubuntu ISO image (or other files for which an MD5 checksum is provided), see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/VerifyIsoHowto or http://www.linuxquestions.org/linux/answers/LQ_ISO/Checking_the_md5sum_in_Windows
[12:13] <rachel84> Yeah, ctrl-alt-backspace flickers the screen for a bit but it then settles to black again.
[12:13] <sofiankr1> how do I know which video card I'm using?
[12:13] <sofiankr1> and where can I get the drivers?
[12:13] <iositd> anonA1, no :p hardly uses more then 500 meg of ram, the hd uses 26gb after isntalling all the programs i need and more
[12:13] <anonA1> sofiankr1 dmesg and look hard
[12:14] <Squawk> killer, if you cant mount the partition with slackware, then reformat the partition (have you actualy formatted it?)
[12:14] <anonA1> iositd oh lol, i was confused for a sec :)
[12:14] <anonA1> that's a lot of progs
[12:14] <killer> Squawk: no i cant mount with slackware
[12:14] <iositd> rachel84, sudo /etc/init.d/?dm restart if i'm right *looks at anonA1*
[12:14] <killer> reformat i will delete all data on it
[12:14] <killer> :s
[12:15] <Dr_willis> use gdm or kdm  - not ?dm :)
[12:15] <iositd> anonA1, oh yeah, and a few movies _legally_ downloaded and some music also legally downloaded
[12:15] <sofiankr1> anonA1: there are too many options!
[12:15] <Squawk> killer, you already said you altered the partition, so you probably borked it anyway
[12:15] <anonA1> sofiankr1 ok, dmesg|grep ideo
[12:15] <iositd> Dr_willis, ? substitutes for a single letter, thus it will replace it with g when using gdm and k when using kdm
[12:15] <CorruptTerrorist> where can i download the alpha5 md5's?
[12:15] <Squawk> timucin, I pm'd you a bit of info
[12:15] <killer> Squawk ; i had delete another partition not ubuntu parition :s
[12:15] <linuxuser> hello.can i use enlightment with KDE?
[12:16] <CorruptTerrorist> oops. wrong chan
[12:16] <Dr_willis> iositd,  i have BOTH kdm and gdm installed...
[12:16] <killer> and when i had boot with live CD i had access to the parition :s
[12:16] <iositd> Dr_willis i c
[12:16] <sofiankr1> anonA1: I got three
[12:16] <Squawk> killer, you didnt mention another partition, you said the partition you changed was /dev/sda1, and that ubuntu now cant mount that partition. That means that partition is scrweed
[12:16] <anonA1> sofiankr1 ok, what about lspci|grep media
[12:17] <Lettuc3> how do i connect my nokia 3110c phone via bluetooth in wammu?
[12:17] <killer> Squawk: look on pm
[12:17] <iositd> Lettuc3, is bluetooth working in general?
[12:17] <anonA1> sofiankr1 you should be able to figure it out from that ... or pastebin the outputs for me, and i'll look
[12:17] <sofiankr1> anonA1: I got nothing
[12:17] <Lettuc3> iositd yes, i can browse the phone in gnome, but what i want is to retrieve my SMS messages from it.
[12:17] <anonA1> sofiankr1 ok, pastebin your whole dmesg for me
[12:17] <anonA1> !pastebin | sofiankr1
[12:17] <ubotu> sofiankr1: pastebin is a service to post multiple-lines texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the channel topic)
[12:18] <Squawk> killer, I got no pm from you
[12:18] <iositd> Lettuc3, i'm not sure wether that's possible without special software which i don't know :(
[12:18] <Squawk> killer, dont dcc pm me, go with /query
[12:18] <lyes> i've a simple question about a little problem
[12:18] <Lettuc3> iositd hence wammu. but it does not want to connect.
[12:18] <anonA1> lyes ask pappy, ask
[12:18] <iositd> lyes: don't ask to ask, just ask :-)
[12:19] <anonA1> sofiankr1 you done the pastebin yet?
[12:19] <sofiankr1> anonA1: almost
[12:19] <Gigahertz> bonjour tout le monde
[12:19] <blahbo> hi all. after upgrading to 7.10, i found that my HDD performance is REALLY slow. plus, there are instanced of md5sum processes taking up most of my CPU
[12:19] <anonA1> Gigahertz allo, parle anglais
[12:19] <Gigahertz> because you are english ?
[12:19] <lyes> okay, when I try to use Sound Recorder on Gnome it tells me my audio capture settings are invalid
[12:19] <anonA1> because that's the channel language
[12:20] <iositd> !fr | Gigahertz
[12:20] <ubotu> Gigahertz: Allez a #ubuntu-fr ou #kubuntu-fr pour de l'aide et de la discussion en francais.
[12:20] <sofiankr1> anonA1: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/57176/
[12:20] <Gigahertz> ah ok anon1
[12:20] <anonA1> ^^
[12:20] <CorruptTerrorist> crap
[12:20] <blahbo> any ideas why my HDD performance is really bad afte rupgrading to 7.10? it took my about 3 mins to copy a 2GB file locally
[12:20] <Gigahertz> tell me, you use ubuntu too ?
[12:21] <iositd> blahbo, depends what you call slow. What sort of HD do you have? depending on which one, 11 meg a second isn't bad
[12:21] <blahbo> iositd it just feels a lot slower. i'm running a toshiba laptpo with a core 2 duo proc.. sata disk of any kind
[12:21] <CorruptTerrorist> hardy-desktop-i386.iso: FAILED MD5
[12:22] <rachel84> (08:14:33 PM) iositd: rachel84, sudo /etc/init.d/?dm restart if i'm right *looks at anonA1*  <-- okay, that restarted the display manager and got rid of the black screen -- which is better than having to restart the whole computer.
[12:22] <CorruptTerrorist> does it mean i have to download it again?
[12:22] <blahbo> iositd any idea of where those md5sum processes come from? i disabled indexing in the user profile...
[12:22] <jpatrick> CorruptTerrorist: yes
[12:22] <faileas> CorruptTerrorist: yeah
[12:22] <ehsan_> I want change /media/cdrom1 to cdrom0+ubuntu
[12:22] <ehsan_>  please help me
[12:22] <CorruptTerrorist> oh teh noes... 2hr 15mins to wait then
[12:22] <anonA1> sofiankr1 ah, looks like with your chipset (Intel 945GM) it's onboard video
[12:22] <rachel84> But does it give any clues as to what the problem is?
[12:22] <iositd> blahbo, md5 processes are not related to indexing afaik
[12:22] <iositd> blahbo, give me a sec while i look it up
[12:22] <faileas> ehsan_: you mean mountpoints?
[12:23] <cafka> hi!! i have broadcom 4311 card and somethimes i get this error Ndiswrapper doesn't support monitor mode. :S  can i fix it???
[12:23] <anonA1> sofiankr1 and it's using 8Meg of memory (pretty low)
[12:23] <blahbo> iositd it's really strange.. there's an md5sum process that keeps trying to index a 2GB truecrypt file
[12:23] <sofiankr1> anonA1: where can I get the drivers?
[12:24] <lyes> can somebody help me to fix my problem
[12:24] <Gigahertz> why don't you answer me ?
[12:24] <sofiankr1> anonA1: some games are working, but pretty badly
[12:24] <floppyshuriken> 5 min boot here...
[12:24] <sofiankr1> anonA1: compiz is working great, however
[12:24] <ehsan_> faileas: my cdroms mount but doesnt add cdrom1(my dvd rom) ass apt source package
[12:25] <iositd> blahbo, there is a command that can limit programs to a maximum amount of cpu usage ... it isn't ideal but it would help you for now at least ... though i lost that name as well
[12:25] <faileas> ahh
[12:25] <anonA1> sofiankr1 i'm not surprised with that amount of Ram allocated ... it seems it uses Intel Graphics Media Accelerator 950
[12:25] <rachel84> Anyone else got any ideas about my user switching issue?
[12:25] <blahbo> iositd yep, i know what you mean..... still, this is really weird.
[12:25] <sofiankr1> does anyone know of a good database management system, asides from OOo, for beginners?
[12:25] <sofiankr1> anonA1: that's bad?
[12:25] <faileas> ehsan_: ahh.. tried editing sources.lst manually?
[12:26] <blahbo> iositd it seems that md5sum is invoked when i start up firefox
[12:26] <ehsan_> yes
[12:26] <faileas> (after reading and understanding the man page)
[12:26] <anonA1> sofiankr1 well from my initial googling, many ppl with this chipset/graphics combination have a problem with slowness
[12:26] <srttsd> padang
[12:27] <sofiankr1> anonA1: not at all. compiz is running as smooth as silk, but the games have these blinking black spots or squares
[12:27] <iositd> blahbo, i agree, it's a wierd situation ...
[12:28] <anonA1> sofiankr1 well all i can say is google "ubuntu Intel 945GM"
[12:28] <sofiankr1> ok
[12:28] <sofiankr1> thanks
[12:28] <anonA1> as that's all i can do in this situation
[12:28] <sofiankr1> rachel84: what is the problem?
[12:29] <bullgard4> What is a 'software bus'? (http://linux.slashdot.org/linux/08/02/02/2219233.shtml)
[12:29] <anonA1> sofiankr1 check this page; http://linux.dell.com/wiki/index.php/Ubuntu_7.04/Issues/Intel_945GM_video_issues
[12:29] <blahbo> anybody else has an idea which process could trigger md5sum indexing?
[12:29] <sofiankr1> anonA1: thanks
[12:29] <anonA1> thank me after your games are blazing ;)
[12:30] <rachel84> When I switch users I get a black screen.
[12:30] <rachel84> I can still hear that the other user using is logging in, but the screen remains black.
[12:30] <anonA1> sofiankr1 don't worry about the Gnome specific stuff on that page (of course)
[12:30] <sofiankr1> rachel84: can you switch users in the terminal?
[12:31] <rachel84> I can ctrl-alt-f1 to a terminal and log in. When I ctrl-alt-f7 back, the screen is still black, though.
[12:31] <ehsan_> faileas: yes
[12:31] <DuClare> And what if it isn't F7?
[12:31] <x-fak> hi
[12:31] <rachel84> I tired, the other numbers just in case. :-)
[12:32] <sofiankr1> rachel84: are you using any graphical effects on your computer/
[12:32] <x-fak> i'm trying to play 5.1 sound with vlc, but's it's defaulted to 2.0 stereo do you know why?
[12:32] <Chepra> Hello! Does anyone have a short installation guide for imagemagick 6.3.x for gutsy? :)
[12:32] <rachel84> Yeah, Compiz, with Deskop cube and anything else I could find that looked col.
[12:32] <faileas> ehsan_: dang... not sure then
[12:32] <ehsan_> faileas: but doesnt solve my problem
[12:32] <sofiankr1> rachel84: maybe it's too much for your hardware? happened with me once in mandriva
[12:33] <rachel84> The hardware handles it fine. It is just user switching that has a problem.
[12:33] <rachel84> It is slike something isn't getting re-innited on a user switch or something.
[12:33] <Jezz> so yay, ubuntu 7.04 install successfull
[12:33] <Jezz> can i upgrade to 7.10 now?
[12:33] <iositd> anonA1, you've heard eluveitie yet btw?
[12:34] <ehsan_> faieas: i change all cdrom to cdrom1 and cdrom1 to cdrom
[12:34] <Jezz> and how do i install graphic drivers?
[12:34] <anonA1> iositd i have downloaded some, but can't listen to it here (at work ;) )

[12:35] <iositd> anonA1, you're doin this while at work? lol nice ...
[12:35] <sofiankr1> rachel84: do all the users have the same compiz settings?
[12:35] <anonA1> iositd haha yeah
[12:35] <Jezz> ok back
[12:35] <Kutag1> Hey all. I got a problem I think.....
[12:35] <anonA1> hey does ubuntu come with glxgears installed in the default install?
[12:35] <sofiankr1> anonA1: thanks! I've managed to install the driver
[12:35] <Jezz> how can i upgrade to 7.10?
[12:35] <Kutag1> I got a nvidia Geforce FX5500 graphics card
[12:35] <iositd> anonA1, yeah it does for me ... but let me check
[12:35] <Jezz> i have 7.04 now
[12:35] <anonA1> sofiankr1 that should make a difference
[12:35] <iositd> yush
[12:35] <Jezz> and i also need to install graphic drivers
[12:35] <sofiankr1> anonA1: hopefully
[12:35] <bullgard4> aLeSD: You will probably get more satisfactory answers in #kubuntu.
[12:35] <Kutag1> but when looking at Screen and Graphics it shows that I use the drivers for Nvidia geforce 4
[12:35] <rachel84> I have just created the second user - the one I am trying to switch to -- so they will have whatever the default is. Not sure.
[12:36] <anonA1> iositd don't worry. I was going to ask sofiankr1 to do a glxgears FPS check before and after installing and configuring the drivers to see the difference
[12:36] <aLeSD> bullgard4 :)
[12:36] <x-fak> do you know why i have some horizontal tearint while playing videos (8600 gts ubutnu 7.10 proprietary drivers) ?
[12:36] <iositd> anonA1, it does have it installed by default :-)
[12:36] <anonA1> iositd ah excellent
[12:37] <aLeSD> bullgard4: the problem is that I'm usint from ubuntu based system ... I won't install kde
[12:37] <Kutag1> Hey ppl, I think I got a problem.
[12:37] <Kutag1> I got a nvidia Geforce FX5500 graphics card but when going to System-Administration-Screen and Graphics at the graphics card drivers tab, I see that it has the nvidia Geforce 4 drivers.....
[12:37] <CorruptTerrorist> 12% of 694MB with 1hr 59mins...
[12:38] <Kutag1> by manually changing it, it stays at nvidia Geforce 4 (generic) drivers
[12:38] <Kutag1> anyone got an idea?
[12:38] <sofiankr1> rachel84: my best guess is... there's something corrupt about the partition. try reformatting it
[12:38] <iositd> !anyone | Kutag1
[12:38] <ubotu> Kutag1: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[12:38] <x-fak> do you know if i can enable v-sync for playing videos with nvidia?
[12:38] <iositd> Kutag1, try the ones from the nvidia site
[12:38] <bardyr> Kutag1, sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx
[12:38] <Kutag1> Ok ty bardyr, Ill try out your command
[12:39] <bardyr> Kutag1, dont try them from nvidia.com unless you know what you are doing, it will break your system
[12:39] <Kutag1> never intended to do so
[12:39] <Kutag1> couldnt find linux drivers anyway
[12:39] <Kutag1> downloading the drivers...
[12:40] <bullgard4> aLeSD:  Synaptic: "A versatile and easy to use audio player for KDE."
[12:40] <Kutag1> anything special that I have to do after having the drivers installed to doublecheck that I got the correct drivers?
[12:40] <bardyr> x-fak, you can do it with nvidia-settings
[12:40] <anonA1> Kutag1 you might be better off doing "sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx nvidia-kernel-common" then "sudo nvidia-glx-config enable"
[12:41] <Kutag1> ok ill try that one then now
[12:42] <x-fak> bardyr, ok i need nvidia-settings
[12:42] <Kutag1> ok I'll restart my PC now
[12:42] <Kutag1> be right back
[12:42] <bardyr> x-fak, if you use the binary gfx drivers you already have them
[12:42] <bardyr> s/them/it
[12:43] <anonA1> heh, his next question will be how to disable the nvidia splash screen ;)
[12:43] <x-fak> bardyr, do you know how to check this setting?
[12:43] <iositd> anonA1, thank goodness it doesn't show for me
[12:43] <anonA1> ah maybe it writes the "nologo" into xorg.conf now
[12:44] <wookienz> hi, just intsalled ubuntu and basic lamp. i have a group called ftp and a user assigned to the group. in the .ini for proftpd i have the user and group stipulated. however it wont let me use my ftp program to write to anything other that the users home dir. have do i change permissions such that the user can write to the /var/www dir?
[12:44] <cambazz> hello anyone using the nvidia driver
[12:44] <cambazz> I can not figure out how to use dual screen
[12:44] <bardyr> x-fak, in nvidia-settings go to X server Xvideo settings
[12:44] <x-fak> i'm using it but i dont know how to configure it, i'm new
[12:44] <bardyr> cambazz, nvidia-settings
[12:45] <bardyr> x-fak, alt + f2 and type in nvidia-settings and hit enter
[12:45] <anonA1> cambazz yeah, and it's easy from there
[12:45] <x-fak> bardyr, thanks a lot for help i'll try this
[12:45] <cambazz> ok
[12:46] <cambazz> I need to restart x now
[12:48] <chazco> Hi... i just built ffmpeg and am hoping to make a .deb using checkinstall. How can I find out the depends for the build?
[12:48] <wookienz> how do i change what permission a user has to a certain dir?
[12:48] <Kutag1> Oh another question: When starting up my PC with Ubuntu, I get the following: "Kinit: trying to resume from (some folders)" then on following line "Kinit: No resume Image" and a bit later an error with "request region 4300-433F" problem..... What is wrong here? :S
[12:49] <anonA1> Kutag1 that's for kerberos ...
[12:49] <artti> Is sda1 same as hda1?
[12:49] <iositd> artti, no
[12:49] <CorruptTerrorist> can you download the iso's via torrent?
[12:49] <Kutag1> AnonA1, would you mind explaining me what Kerberos is?
[12:49] <Kutag1> CorruptTerrorist, yeah you can
[12:49] <iositd> CorruptTerrorist, yes
[12:49] <faileas> artti: HDA= IDE SDA is IDE for the new kernels, SCSI for everything
[12:49] <Kutag1> You need BitTorrent client for that
[12:50] <Kutag1> BitTorrent is somewhere in the add/remove software section....
[12:50] <artti> I wanted to do performance boost using tutorial.
[12:50] <anonA1> Kutag1 well it's related to authentication and logins etc ... if you don't know what it is you probably don't need to know :)
[12:51] <CorruptTerrorist> i need the iso so i can install linux :P . i use uTorrent constantly
[12:51] <anonA1> Kutag1 it must be related to KDEs login? I'm guessing here
[12:51] <Kutag1> Well, I want to know whether it is a problem or not. The error related to request region 4300-433F?
[12:51] <Kutag1> I'm using the plain Ubuntu, with GNOME
[12:51] <pale-yaf1> hi, how to enable mod_userdir?
[12:52] <Jezz> hello, can someone help me?
[12:52] <iositd> Jezz, just ask
[12:52] <Jezz> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=706188
[12:52] <Jezz> i made a thread
[12:52] <Jezz> how do you install graphic drivers?
[12:52] <Jezz> i have installed ubuntu 7.04
[12:52] <Jezz> do i need to upgrade to 7.10?
[12:53] <anonA1> Kutag1 doesn't really look like it, but look here if you are concerned; https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/103148
[12:53] <Kutag1> Jezz, it is always a good idea to stay up to date :P
[12:53] <iositd> Jezz, you can install the graphics drivers via system->adminstration->restricted drivers (i lost that command that was give before)
[12:53] <Jezz> okay
[12:53] <Kutag1> ok ty anonA1, I'll have a look
[12:53] <x-fak> is there a way to bind a sound when an usb peripheral is plugged in just like into windows?
[12:53] <kane77> how can I view the boot output after I log in?
[12:54] <anonA1> Kutag1 kerberos is used with samba sometimes (depending on your configuration)
[12:54] <iositd> Jezz, and iso's can be burned by double clicking them. It might not look like much, but the program works like a charm
[12:54] <Jezz> "Your hardware does not need any restricted drivers"
[12:54] <Jezz> ok cool
[12:54] <iositd> Jezz, then you don't need the restricted drivers :-)
[12:54] <linux__> hi ppl
[12:54] <Jezz> oh but my resolution looks pretty weird now?
[12:54] <linux__> need some help :P:D
[12:54] <linux__> whit steam ;))
[12:55] <iositd> Jezz, for just data burning you can use k3b (system->administration->synaptic->search for it, or type sudo apt-get install k3b in console)
[12:55] <Kutag1> Steam huh.... I hate Steam :P
[12:55] <linux__> i have instaled cedega 5.2.9
[12:55] <linux__> after installed steam whit cedega
[12:55] <Jezz> thnx
[12:55] <anonA1> steam made me stop playing games online
[12:55] <linux__> but when i whana open steam shis sayng to me another process in use
[12:56] <frold> Whats the .daa format? A windows format or?
[12:56] <iositd> frold, it's a poweriso format yes
[12:56] <linux__> windows format i tink
[12:56] <faileas> erf
[12:56] <Jezz> daa is poweriso
[12:56] <linux__> mai instalation kit is .exe
[12:56] <faileas> its a disk image format supported by a single programme
[12:56]  * faileas wonders whats wrong with ISOs
[12:56] <Jezz> how can i change desktop resolution?
[12:56] <iositd> faileas, not just a single program, i think that the total comes to a whole total of 3 programs (2 of those are convertors)
[12:56] <frold> hmmmm - crapy download then :D
[12:57] <iositd> Jezz, system->preferences->resolution
[12:57] <Jezz> thnx
[12:57] <Kutag1> What the heck, now when trying to run Terminal it just shows a blank window (no window borders or whatever :S )
[12:57] <Jezz> cool
[12:57]  * Kutag1 sighs
[12:57] <Jezz> wow i kinda like this
[12:57] <faileas> iositd: i mean, nothing but that opens it ;p
[12:57] <Jezz> everything works out of the box, no av needed etc.
[12:57] <linux__> now i will try open whit cross :P:D
[12:57] <Jezz> maybe i dont install windows again XD
[12:58] <linux__> maiby it will work
[12:58] <faileas> lol
[12:58] <Jezz> but then i need office, is there office for linux?
[12:58] <linux__> jezz xp sucks >:P
[12:58] <Kutag1> Jezz, I would install windows on a seperate partition, just for the games :P
[12:58] <Kutag1> Jezz, ti is pre-installed for Ubuntu
[12:58] <Jezz> well i dont game
[12:58] <Kutag1> Applications-->Office
[12:58] <iositd> faileas, well the convertors open it 2 :p but they write an iso from it immediately, so yeah i get your point :-)
[12:58] <Jezz> ah
[12:58] <Jezz> great
[12:58] <Kutag1> :)
[12:58] <Kutag1> Well Jezz, then it doesn't seem you need Windows anymore :P
[12:59] <Jezz> one question then, can i upgrade to 7.10?
[12:59] <Kutag1> For 99% of the tasks, there is a linux tool
[12:59] <Swian> or you can create a virtual machine and run windows on that
[12:59] <Kutag1> Yeah I thought there was an upgrader... let me check
[12:59] <Jezz> or do i need a new installation?
[12:59] <Swian> there is
[12:59] <iositd> Kutag1, 99? in my case that's 100% ;-)
[12:59] <Swian> you can go to update manager
[12:59] <linux__> is an updrage from feisty to gusty ?
[12:59] <CorruptTerrorist> are the torrents as fast as the mirrors?
[12:59] <Jezz> ok so there is bittorent, usenet clients for linux?
[12:59] <Swian> and it should let you upgrade from there
[12:59] <Kutag1> btw it is Kutagh not Kutag1 :P and I know 1 thing that you dont need in Linux... anti-virus :P
[13:00] <Swian> bittornado client
[13:00] <iositd> Jezz, if you need a program, you can search for them in synaptic :-) sometimes that's even faster then asking :p
[13:00] <linux__> fuck antivirus for wat :D
[13:00] <kane77> Jezz, the best torrent client imo is ktorrent
[13:00] <Jezz> cool
[13:00] <auntieNeo> ugh... I've broken my fonts... I was messing with .fonts.config and friends and now all my apps use wierd fonts. How do I revert the fonts to the way they were when I installed kubuntu? I already tried removing .font*, but it's still messed up
[13:00] <Jezz> thnx gonna look there
[13:00] <jussi01> !ohmy | linux__
[13:00] <ubotu> linux__: Please watch your language and topic to help keep this channel family friendly.
[13:00] <Kutag1> AuntieNeo, I believe you can do it somewhere in your appearance location. Let me look
[13:00] <linux__> a
[13:00] <linux__> sry :P:D
[13:00] <iositd> oh come on. .. that's just normal language imo
[13:01] <Kutag1> System-->Preferences-->Appearance
[13:01] <Kutag1> go to the Font tab
[13:01] <Jezz> actually, this is almost easier then windows hehee
[13:01] <Kutag1> Now you should be able to change the fonts
[13:01] <cambazz_> hello is there a way to .install ubuntu so that it asks for which packages to install
[13:01] <Jezz> just need to learn some terminal commands
[13:01] <Kutag1> Jezz, indeed ;)
[13:01] <Kutag1> Or maybe not at all...
[13:01] <toogreen> Hi everyone, have a prob, I chose not to install grub at install cuz i didnt want it to overwrite my original partition on my EeePC, but now I'd like to install it, but to (HD1,1) - how can i do this from the live cd?
[13:01] <cambazz_> I changed the ip address to static and now it is majorly screwed up
[13:01] <Jezz> wow no sound drivers, video drivers needed :D everything just works
[13:02] <cambazz_> I can login but then I am getting black screen
[13:02] <Kutag1> haha yeah long live Ubuntu :)
[13:02] <anonA1> oops, gotta dash
[13:02] <anonA1> ciao
[13:02] <iositd> ciao honey
[13:02] <Kutag1> Im also fond of Ubuntu right after using it
[13:02] <KemrinH> Hey everyone
[13:02] <cambazz_> well ctrl alt F1
[13:02] <cambazz_> does not work as well
[13:02] <Jezz> ah i can even acces my ntsf drives
[13:02] <Kutag1> I especially like the Cube feature with my skydome
[13:02] <Squawk> Hey chaps, no reason not to just remove all the UUID entries in fstab and replace with the actual devices (eg /dev/sda1) is there? uuid's are just confusing
[13:02] <cambazz_> my computer has gone blind
[13:02] <mohbana> is adobee reader on the repos?
[13:02] <KemrinH> Has anyone here interacted much with the phone service known as GrandCentral?
[13:03] <Kutag1> Mohbana, you don't need Adobe Reader
[13:03] <EnvoyRising> cambazz_ did you do a ctrl alt f7 afterwards?
[13:03] <CorruptTerrorist> are the torrents as fast as the mirrors? sorry, no nick highlighting
[13:03] <mohbana> Kutag1, i think i do evince doesn't render fonts that good
[13:03] <Kutag1> CorruptTerrorist, nope usually the torrents are slower
[13:03] <chazco> !medibuntu
[13:03] <ubotu> medibuntu is a repository of packages that cannot be included into the Ubuntu distribution for legal reasons - See http://www.medibuntu.org
[13:03] <iositd> CorruptTerrorist, they are sometimes faster, sometimes slower, but they have the advantage that you can resume them later
[13:03] <Kutag1> Well, then I would look around
[13:04] <Kutag1> Torrents are not downloading from a server but from other users
[13:04] <EnvoyRising> mohbana:: unless you need to work with pdf files that have form entries
[13:04] <faileas> in my experience torrents are slower but more reliable
[13:04] <CorruptTerrorist> considering the fact that i have a slow conection anyways... is it not worth it being able to resume later?
[13:04] <iositd> faileas, i usually get rather high speeds on torrents (as in 500+)
[13:04] <Kutag1> I usually use torrents when I need to download large files
[13:05] <chazco> Is it safe to use the Medibuntu repo to install ffmpeg?
[13:05] <Kutag1> CorruptTerrorist, it is actually worth it if you got a slow connection
[13:05] <EnvoyRising> chazco: thats what i always used back in the day
[13:05] <faileas> iositd: the best i got was 200 kbps ;p
[13:05] <gopp> !webmin
[13:05] <ubotu> webmin is no longer supported in Debian and Ubuntu. It is not compatible with the way that Ubuntu packages handle configuration files, and is likely to cause unexpected issues with your system. See !ebox instead.
[13:05] <EnvoyRising> chazco: but thats been forever, so i don't know if they've changed at all
[13:05] <Jezz> and how do you get those effects?
[13:05] <CorruptTerrorist> Kutag1, is it worth waiting 10 weeks for a cd?
[13:05] <iositd> faileas, the best i had so far was 2 meg a second on a torrent .... which wasn't a peak because it kept it there the whole time :-)
[13:05] <chazco> EnvoyRising - Ok... i compiled it myself but i reinstall Ubuntu about once a week, and solving the ffmpeg deps can be chaos
[13:06] <Jezz> berryl? or i dunno what it is called
[13:06] <CorruptTerrorist> !ebox
[13:06] <ubotu> ebox is a web-based GUI interface for administering a server. It is designed to work with Ubuntu/Debian style configuration management. See the plans for Hardy at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/EboxSpec
[13:06] <Jezz> but i saw it on YT
[13:06] <iositd> Jezz, compiz :-)
[13:06] <Jezz> oh
[13:06] <Kutag1> CorruptTerrorist, I just let my PC on overnight and downloaded it then xD
[13:06] <faileas> CorruptTerrorist: i keep the CDs handy for others ;p
[13:06] <Kutag1> then burned the CD to my HD
[13:06] <mad_max02> Jezz, if u installed ubuntu and video card drivers just start compiz :D
[13:06] <Kutag1> I mean the iso to my CD
[13:06] <Jezz> how?
[13:06] <iositd> EnvoyRising, i've got it all running now, video, wireless and sound ;-)
[13:06]  * faileas should have brought it for the LUG
[13:06] <EnvoyRising> chazco: i wish i had that kind of time on my hands. not to mention, without a lan connection, doing anything linux related can be a hastle
[13:06] <thesaint4444> hi guys, anyone familiar with the ubuntu style apache 2.2 vhost setup? how do the virtual.conf file, default vhost and site vhost files fit together? I am having some trouble getting it to work...
[13:06] <Kutag1> Jezz, "sudo apt-get install compiz" I think
[13:07] <Jezz> ok
[13:07] <EnvoyRising> (as opposed to wifi..which is a nightmare)
[13:07] <Kutag1> or just go to System-Administration-Synaptic
[13:07] <tanath> last update broke amsn: http://pastebin.ca/916219
[13:07] <mad_max02> Kutag1, compiz is installed in ubuntu
[13:07] <gothy> EnvoyRising, no way, once i knew what to do, it was a charm :P
[13:07] <Kutag1> and search for Compiz
[13:07] <mad_max02> no need to install compiz
[13:07] <Kutag1> mad_max02 I still had to enable it
[13:07] <chazco> EnvoyRising - Building it took about 10 minutes... if you mean the reinstalls i often dont have much choice :)
[13:07] <mad_max02> its already installed
[13:07] <Jezz> compiz is already the newest version.
[13:07] <Jezz> 0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 186 not upgraded.
[13:07] <Jezz> so how do i start it now?
[13:07] <bardyr> EnvoyRising, wifi is easy!
[13:07] <Kutag1> Hmmm.....
[13:07] <gothy> Kutag1, most systems just miss xserver-xgl :-)
[13:07] <tanath> can anyone help?
[13:08] <Kutag1> Then it should be probably xserver-xgl to be installed yet
[13:08] <gothy> bardyr, it can be a real pain if it doesnt work (take my atheros 5007 eg for example)
[13:08] <bardyr> !anyone

[13:08] <Jezz> 7.04
[13:08] <mad_max02> Jezz, just type compiz ffs
[13:08] <bardyr> gothy, ndiswrapper fixes everything :)
[13:08] <EnvoyRising> bardyr: wifi is easy on ubuntu assuming your hardware...im working with the intel wifi iwl4965..if you know anything, you know that the iwlwifi module is a bit buggy at the moment
[13:08] <mad_max02> Jezz, open terminal and type compiz
[13:08] <Jezz> oooh
[13:08] <Jezz> ok
[13:08] <Jezz> lol
[13:08] <Kutag1> Jezz, you got in system-preferences-advanced desktop effects settings?
[13:08] <Jezz> eh
[13:08] <tanath> bardyr, if that was directed at me, i already stated the problem
[13:08] <gothy> bardyr, sometimes it does ... but i got it to work with madwifi and it works perfectly now :-)
[13:08] <tanath> last update broke amsn: http://pastebin.ca/916219

[13:11] <hc> phw, nautilus can browse ftp by default (it's the default file browser)
[13:11] <hc> tanath, please explain the problem here?
[13:11] <phw> Kutag: no i want to access my imap directory on my providers server
[13:11] <Floris> Hello. I'm having a problem with Ubuntu 6.06 on a SuperMicro server with two Intel 82573E Gigabit Ethernet Controllers. I've described my problem at http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=702209
[13:12] <Avernos> i have reinstalled windows and tried to fix grub, grub recognice the old windows that is gone now and doenst load the partition, can anyone help me
[13:12] <tanath> hc, the problem is, i updated, and it doesn't run anymore. i ran it from the terminal and got that output
[13:12] <mad_max02> tanath, just reinstall the package
[13:12] <Floris> Anyone willing to have a look at that thread?
[13:12] <EnvoyRising> hc: ever get your wifi and video playing nicely?
[13:12] <tanath> mad_max02, trying that now
[13:12] <hc> EnvoyRising, yeah, just perfectly
[13:12] <hc> EnvoyRising, with madwifi :p
[13:13] <hc> tanath, you can grab their source and recompile it
[13:13] <EnvoyRising> hc: good to hear that I at least pointed you in the right direction..somewhat, lol
[13:13] <hc> EnvoyRising, yeah you did :-)
[13:13] <tomasso> what happens with libgdk libpango and libpng ? to make openoffice or firefox work I have to downgrade, and if I downgrade the icons are not shown :S im stuck on this
[13:13] <Kutag1> phw, go to Places-Connect
[13:13] <Jezz> woah i got a white screen
[13:13] <Jezz> i had to reboot
[13:13] <tanath> hc, well, i'm using the package in the repo... shouldn't need to compile it
[13:13] <Kutag1> and select then FTP and insert something
[13:13] <Jezz> i could alt tab then i saw something but something is wrong
[13:13] <tomasso> when I run those i get stuff like libgdk-x11-2.0.so.0: undefined symbol
[13:13] <hc> tanath, the package in the repo isn't the latest version which it will tell you on start up
[13:13] <Jezz> i need vid card drivers i think
[13:14] <Kutag1> Jezz, did you try "compiz --replace"?
[13:14] <Jezz> yes
[13:14] <hc> Jezz, what video card do you have?
[13:14] <Jezz> 8600gt
[13:14] <phw> Kutag: i do _not_ need an ftp-tool. I need to access my imap directory via the imap protocoll
[13:14] <tanath> hc, it did before, but it just updated again this morning. i thought it might be now... only it's broken
[13:14] <mad_max02> Jezz, did u install video card drivers properly ?
[13:14] <Jezz> and it reacts kinda slow i think it doesnt have drivers yet
[13:14] <phw> to the public: is there a tool to browse IMAP directories _like_ an FTP program?
[13:14] <Jezz> i didnt install anything lol
[13:14] <tanath> hc, mad_max02, it's still not working
[13:14] <mad_max02> LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL
[13:15] <Kutag1> Jezz, did you try "sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx" to get nvidia drivers?
[13:15] <tanath> after a reinstall that is
[13:15] <mad_max02> Jezz, dude u gotta install video card drivers properly
[13:15] <Jezz> oh
[13:15] <hc> tanath, it might've been updated, but the latest version is on their site. Also, by recompiling you rule out that it is corrupted or anything else wrong with it
[13:15] <Jezz> ok kutagl gonna try that
[13:15] <mad_max02> tanath, dude remove the package with synaptics (complete removal) and then install it again
[13:15] <tanath> hc, well, it was working fine before the update, so obviously there's a bug
[13:16] <lilleman> I am trying to get my Benq 19" FP92W monitor to work as a secondary monitor to my Macbook pro. But it is just blank. I got the extra wide desktop and everything, but the modeline or something is wrong.
[13:16] <mad_max02> Jezz, do you have nvidia video card ?
[13:16] <Avernos> how can i reload the script of ubuntu that searches for the partitions and set them up in grub? i tried with the installed, but doenst allow me because i am not formatting the / partition
[13:16] <hc> mad_max02, he said he has an nvidia geforce 8600 GT
[13:16] <Jezz> yes
[13:16] <mad_max02> hm
[13:16] <tanath> mad_max02, i'm hesitant to do that because i'm not sure how many settings & such would be removed in a purge
[13:16] <mad_max02> some users reported problems with that card
[13:16] <Jezz> but i tried kutagls command and now its downloading someting
[13:16] <hc> tanath, does it matter wether settings go lost when you can't even start it now?
[13:16] <EnvoyRising> reason number 14323 why I prefer ubuntu irc over microsoft live chat help: technicians use words like "dude" "bro" "thingy" "cool" "winblowz" etc
[13:16] <mad_max02> tanath, I think that ur settings are stored in /home/user/.amsn
[13:16] <Kutag1> Jezz, it is downloading nvidia drivers ;)
[13:17] <Floris> Hello. I'm having a problem with Ubuntu 6.06 on a SuperMicro server with two Intel 82573E Gigabit Ethernet Controllers. I've described my problem at http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=702209  ---  Anyone willing to have a look at that thread and help me out with this?
[13:17] <Jezz> :D
[13:17] <hc> EnvoyRising, i don't think that's reason number 14323, that one is 13423 ;-)
[13:17] <Jezz> ok and now its done
[13:17] <tanath> hc, it does when lots of things are tweaked, and i can't remember everything, and i don't want to lose logs or anything
[13:17] <EnvoyRising> hc: typo, sorry
[13:17] <mad_max02> tanath, just backup ur .amsn directory
[13:17] <Jezz> so now its downloaded, do i need to install it?
[13:17] <tanath> mad_max02, purging won't affect that? maybe i should... yeah
[13:17] <hc> 14323 was that it all will work in the end, no matter how difficult it might seem at first
[13:17] <Kutag1> ok Jezz, try again "compiz --replace"
[13:17] <tanath> k
[13:18] <Jezz> you sure its installed?
[13:18] <Kutag1> you already installed it automatically
[13:18] <hc> Jezz, apt-get install installs it after it downloads it by itself
[13:18] <Jezz> coz i dont see diffirence
[13:18] <EnvoyRising> hc: guess i should have copied directly over from the "linux pwns" database instead of trying to touch type it
[13:18] <hc> lol
[13:18] <Kutag1> I think that Jezz is going to restart his PC :P
[13:18] <mad_max02> Jezz, dude :D you need to reboot after install :D
[13:18] <faileas> EnvoyRising: not everyone here hates windows ;p
[13:18] <Jezz> oh
[13:18] <Jezz> ok lol
[13:18] <Jezz> ok brb then
[13:18] <hc> faileas, what? you sure?
[13:18] <mad_max02> hehehe
[13:18] <faileas> hc: i don't ;p
[13:19] <Kutag1> too bad, wanted him to get the white screen as a last reminder ;P
[13:19] <mad_max02> faileas, I dont hate windows I just stopped using it
[13:19] <faileas> mad_max02: i use it less than i did before ;p
[13:19] <lilleman> I need some xorg.conf-master to get my 19" benq FP92W working... plz :)
[13:19] <faileas> but as things are, its more, it dosen't matter what OS i'm on, it does what i want it to
[13:19] <EnvoyRising> faileas: i don't hate windows (though, i DO hate vista), i just hate their customer support, lol
[13:19] <mad_max02> faileas, gave me so much sh*t in the past 15 years that I finally decided to get over it :
[13:19] <Kutag1> btw mad_max02, the terminal is acting kinda weird...when trying to launch it, I just get a white screen without borders on the location of where the terminal would be
[13:19] <mad_max02> :D
[13:20] <Kutag1> I think that my drivers are kinda %&*@%*&
[13:20] <faileas> EnvoyRising: i don't use the costomer support.i use IRC ;p
[13:20] <mad_max02> Kutag1, u cant run it at all ??
[13:20] <faileas> mad_max02: wierdly i
[13:20] <EnvoyRising> faileas: touche
[13:20] <mad_max02> Kutag1, try setting ur desktop effects to normal and then run it
[13:20] <faileas> 've never had any non user stupidty caused problems ;p
[13:20] <Kutag1> mad_max02, it just doesnt want to appear properly. I get a white screen the size of the terminal
[13:20] <mad_max02> Kutag1, then run glxgears
[13:20] <Jezz> well i dont see no diffirence
[13:21] <hc> EnvoyRising, another one is that techs from linux world can admit there's a bug in their software, where m$ techs just say "no that ain't a bug, that's a feature"
[13:21] <mad_max02> I get about 20.000fps with glxgears so I'm sure that drivers are working properly
[13:21] <Jezz> but doesnt ubuntu has something like device manager?
[13:21] <Kutag1> gah now it is removing nvidia-glx
[13:21] <Kutag1> :S
[13:21] <Kutag1> and installed nvidia-glx-new
[13:21] <Jezz> so how do i see if its installed now
[13:21] <Jezz> i dont see no diffirence
[13:22] <Kutag1> but that fixed the issue
[13:22] <hc> Jezz, run compiz --replace again
[13:22] <Squawk> jezz, what exactly is it you want to do with "device manage"?
[13:22] <EnvoyRising> hc: more like "yeah, its a bug, but lets just call it a feature. Example, AVN locking in position if you exit from the right instead of above, and im-switch locking keyboard input unless you tweak dead keys)
[13:22] <Jezz> hm and then restart pc again 0.0
[13:22] <Kutag1> 2375+ I'm getting
[13:22] <Jezz> em checking if all the drivers are installed
[13:22] <hc> EnvoyRising, yeah sort of like that
[13:22] <mad_max02> Kutag1, I'm using nvidia driver for the repos
[13:22] <tanath> mad_max02, purging it had no effect
[13:23] <mad_max02> its the most stable driver
[13:23] <hc> EnvoyRising, the only thing that i'm using windows for is for games, since they still run better on it
[13:23] <Jezz> allright if i quit the drivers are NOT installed lol
[13:23] <EnvoyRising> hc: good thing is, at least as far as i've seen, there is usually a discussion before they leave a bug and relabel it as a feature
[13:23] <gold44> is there an utility that can start and stop a hole bunch of services with easy to use menu , like sysvconfig >
[13:23] <gold44> ?
[13:23] <wu47345> FlorisNL: maybe this one will help you: http://agenda.clustermonkey.net/index.php/Tuning_Intel_e1000_NICs
[13:23] <Kutag1> and while running glxgears it says "Error: API mismatch: this NVIDIA driver component has version 100.14.19, but the kernel module's version does not match. Please make sure tha tthe kernel module and all NVIDIA driver components have the same version
[13:23] <Kutag1> and im getting an average of 5k DPS now
[13:23] <EnvoyRising> hc: that was me until i realized that a) i don't play games too much any more (not enough time) and two, i've fallin in love with a few open source games
[13:23] <Jezz> Xlib:  extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0".
[13:23] <mad_max02> well that kinda low

[13:24] <FlorisNL> Thanks wu47345, I'll have a look.
[13:24] <userwald0> is xfs a recommended file system for a raid lms install?
[13:24] <Kutag1> mad_max02 I got a geforce FX5500
[13:24] <userwald0> or is ext3 better?
[13:24] <Jezz> something wrong i guess
[13:24] <EnvoyRising> hc: something about playing a game, being pissed because something doesn't work right, then complaining to the devs to have them address it immediately. that or submitting the patch myself :P
[13:24] <Kutag1> I hit a max of 61XX FPS
[13:25] <Kutag1> lowest was in the upper 3XXX region
[13:25] <Kutag1> highest now 63XX
[13:25] <mad_max02> what drivers are you using atm ?
[13:25] <Kutag1> when setting the desktop effects to normal, it downloaded nvidia-glx-new
[13:25] <frold> howto run a .iso file without burning it?
[13:25] <Kutag1> so I guess nvidia-glx-new
[13:25] <unholymarriage> could someone recommend a good gui frontend to the shred command or some similar type utility ??
[13:26] <FlorisNL> wu47345, where would the modprobe.conf file be located?
[13:26] <Kutag1> Frold, you cant install Ubuntu by running it
[13:26] <lilleman> Please, I am so close to get this second screen working. I just cant see the problem in my xorg.conf.
[13:26] <EnvoyRising> frold: mount it
[13:26] <hc> EnvoyRising, yeah that's great :-)
[13:26] <CorruptTerrorist> frold, you have to burn it... no ther option
[13:26] <hc> EnvoyRising, though i'm a dev of a game that's a mod of hl2dm :(
[13:26] <frold> its not ubuntu I have as a iso
[13:26] <Kutag1> CorruptTerrorist, it depends on the iso
[13:26] <EnvoyRising> hc: i guess being on the dev team itself helps. what mod are you on?
[13:26] <Kutag1> cant Ubuntu mount it automatically?
[13:27] <hc> EnvoyRising, sourceforts :-)
[13:27] <Kutag1> try doubleclicking it
[13:27] <EnvoyRising> hc: checking it out right...now
[13:27] <Jezz> so when i type that compiz command i get this:
[13:27] <mad_max02> Kutag1, I'm using extra desktop effects and nvidia drivers from repos
[13:27] <Jezz> Xlib:  extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0".

[13:27] <hc> EnvoyRising, www.sourcefortsmod.com
[13:27] <frold> okay Kutag1, EnvoyRising, CorruptTerrorist In XP I had a deamon tool you dont have that to ubuntu...
[13:27] <m0u5e> anyone know how to change the ugly peach colored wallpaper that ubuntu gutsy has by default whenever booting up?
[13:27] <hc> !themes | m0u5e
[13:27] <Jezz> oh soryr lol
[13:27] <laughzilla> hi :) i tried to install all the files that seemed relevant to play .swf files in ubuntu ... yet my Movie Player still says i have a general error to play the file with GStream. what should i be sure to install to play .swf in ubuntu ? :)
[13:27] <m0u5e> hc: no matterh what it always appears prior to my wallpaper loading
[13:28] <EnvoyRising> frold: you talking about daemon tools? good stuff. anyways ,linux comes with that built in
[13:28] <gopp> any one here use ebox
[13:28] <unholymarriage> you can run a iso in a virtual machine..i use virtualbox...but it wont work to install it
[13:28] <wu47345> FlorisNL: oh, in ubuntu it's /etc/modprobe.d/options
[13:28] <m0u5e> hc, i'm talking about that peach colored default wallpaper you see before everything loads
[13:28] <userwald0> frold, you can either mount it, or you can use a cdrom emumaltor, just search for "linux mounting an iso" in google and you'll get a bunch of hits
[13:28] <ubotu> m0u5e: Find your themes at: http://www.gnome-look.org - http://art.gnome.org - http://www.kde-look.org - http://kubuntu-art.org - http://themes.freshmeat.net/browse/58/ - http://www.guistyles.com - https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Artwork/ - Also see !changethemes and https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuEyeCandy
[13:28] <hc> m0u5e, you can change the screen before your wallpaper as well, it might be a little bit of searching but tis' there
[13:28] <EnvoyRising> not sure if this will work, but i'm going to try...
[13:28] <m0u5e> hc: is it related to the theme? I already tried to change it with gconf-editor
[13:28] <hc> m0u5e, themes aren ot just wallpapers, they govern the whole system of graphical stuff
[13:28] <Kutag1> Well the terminal appears normal now
[13:28] <Jezz> so how do install the nvidia drivers properly now?
[13:29] <mad_max02> good
[13:29] <Kutag1> and agian not
[13:29] <m0u5e> hc: i've tried different themes, but no matter what that peach color is always there :X
[13:29] <mad_max02> Jezz, go to Restricted drivers manager and install it :D
[13:29] <EnvoyRising> !mount | frold
[13:29] <ubotu> frold: Partitioning programs: !GParted or QTParted (also "man mkfs" for formatting) - Mounting partitions in !GNOME under !Dapper: System -> Administration -> Disks - For !Edgy and later, see !fstab and !DiskMounter
[13:29] <EnvoyRising> i guess it does work :P
[13:29] <Kutag1> mad_max02, after enabling extra desktop effects terminal is again white
[13:29] <EnvoyRising> just not exactly what i wanted to refer you to
[13:30] <mad_max02> did u restart after driver change ?
[13:30] <userwald0> frold, there is a similar tool to the daemon tool that i have used on other distros called cdemu
[13:30] <mad_max02> ctrl+alt+backspace
[13:30] <hc> m0u5e, i've found it to work when i looked for themes ... it's not the theme, but one of the other optinos ....
[13:30] <hc> gimme a sec while i look
[13:30] <Kutag1> mad_max02, not yet
[13:30] <mad_max02> :)
[13:30] <mad_max02> I'm off to lunch
[13:30] <m0u5e> hc, thx
[13:30] <Kutag1> but I restarted after "sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx"
[13:31] <Kutag1> and then the terminal became bugged
[13:31] <crzedmonk> hi
[13:31] <phaylontis> yo
[13:31] <Kutag1> so I dont think that that is the problem IMO
[13:31] <EnvoyRising> frold: you still around?
[13:31] <Jezz> yay i had my first system freeze :O
[13:31] <Kutag1> LOL Jezz.. xD
[13:31] <Kutag1> restarting PC again
[13:31] <frold> yep yep.. searching for more about cdemu...
[13:31] <frold> that mounting seems very advance....
[13:31] <hc> m0u5e, if i'm correct, go to http://www.gnome-look.org and look under splash screens :-)
[13:32] <m0u5e> hc, alright thx ill try that
[13:32] <jtravnick> can somebody help me get my network running? or at least point me to a good howto?
[13:32] <hc> jtravnick, what' sup with your network?
[13:33] <EnvoyRising> i guess not. i found a script that lets you mount images from nautilus context menu
[13:33] <encrypt3d> Does anyone have a spare moment to help me with an annoying problem.  99% of the time when rebooting Gusty on my Dell XP@410 it will hang on the Ubuntu Splash screen.  Any ideas how to fix this?  Thanks
[13:33] <EnvoyRising> hc: whats your dev name on that mod?
[13:33] <Jezz> hoooooow do you install nvidia drivers
[13:33] <hc> EnvoyRising, HisChild
[13:33] <hc> EnvoyRising, now guess where this one comes from :p
[13:33] <Jezz> or i need windows :O
[13:34] <EnvoyRising> hc: castles? lol
[13:34] <jtravnick> hc have three systems two running fedora and than my desktop running ubuntu the only system anyone can see is my laptop cant see eather desktops
[13:34] <hc> EnvoyRising, hahaha :(
[13:34] <hc> EnvoyRising,  no :P
[13:34] <frold> userwald0: which one to download: http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=93175&package_id=256719&release_id=563855 couldnt find it in add programs
[13:34] <mohbana> this is lame, adobe have made a repo for yum but didn't make one for apt
[13:34] <hc> jtravnick, can you get online with all three of them? do you use the same hub/switch/router for all of them? are they on the same network?
[13:35] <jtravnick> when I go to network the laptop shows up as "SFTP File Transfer on localhost
[13:35] <_Andrew> mohbana, You can use alien to make a deb file
[13:35] <jtravnick> hc yes all three can get on the internet are concected to a router
[13:35] <EnvoyRising> hc: i don't think i'm a big enough game junky to guess. reminds me of cube only because you can build stuff
[13:36] <tanath> hc, i installed the amsn package from the site, and now i get a popup error that says 'tkcximage failed to load'. i've seen that error before, but forgot how it was fixed
[13:36] <DB42> how do i check if i have any ports opened ?
[13:36] <EnvoyRising> hc: do envy you. wish i was on a mod/ dev team.. my green thumb is itching for a bit of coding
[13:36] <hc> tanath, you probably have to install that package yourself afterwards
[13:36] <Jezz> why does restricted driver manager i dont need drivers
[13:36] <hc> EnvoyRising, if you apply i can probably give you a good word in there :p
[13:36] <Jezz> i dont have nvidia drivers yet
[13:36] <EnvoyRising> mohbana, they did make one for apt
[13:37] <jtravnick> hc ive tried NFS and Samba but can never get to my desktop off anything else
[13:37] <mohbana> EnvoyRising, where is it?
[13:37] <hc> EnvoyRising, do you happen to know about networking fedora and ubuntu together? *points at jtravnick*
[13:37] <tanath> hc, apparently... didn't seem to have checked for that dependency.
[13:37] <mohbana> http://www.adobeforums.com/webx/.3bc38853, look at the last post
[13:37] <EnvoyRising> hc: seems a bit vague... i thought networking was os agnostic?
[13:37] <DB42> is the default 7.10 kernel tick-less ??
[13:37] <jtravnick> the laptop is running fedora6 and have no idea what i did back than to make it work
[13:38] <hc> EnvoyRising, yeah ... he wants  his 3 systems linked together ... but i haven't done that yet in linux :p
[13:38] <hc> tanath, that happens more when compiling programs (lives holds my current record with 10+ packages missing)
[13:38] <hc> jtravnick, second ... i'm not that well with networking so someone else will have to do that one for you
[13:38] <frold> ill fucking burn that iso - seems much easier :D
[13:39] <floppyshuriken> 4 min boot up time is unacceptable, what can I do?
[13:39] <tanath> hc, still not working :/
[13:39] <tanath> hc, same error
[13:39] <jtravnick> hc k thanks anyway
[13:39] <EnvoyRising> mohbana: just a sec, net connection being slow. think you need to ad a reop
[13:39] <EnvoyRising> repo*
[13:39] <DB42> anybody here know if the 7.10 default kernel is tick-less ?
[13:40] <hc> frold, you can just do something like sudo mkdir *insert mountpoint here* mount -o loop *insert iso file name* *insert mount point*
[13:40] <tanath> hc, this person had the same problem. no help: http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-software-2/amsn-failed-to-load-tkcximage-615431/
[13:40] <EnvoyRising> mohbana: ah, its in the medibuntu repo..
[13:40] <hc> frold: wait ... missing an && between here* && mount -o
[13:40] <EnvoyRising> mohbana: http://www.ubuntugeek.com/how-to-install-adobe-pdf-reader-811-with-plug-in-for-mozilla-firefox-in-gutsy-gibbon.html then just sudo apt-get acroread
[13:41] <frold> hc; thank you but I burn it....
[13:41] <mohbana> EnvoyRising, ok but what i was getting to was adobe are hosting adobe reader on their servers
[13:41] <hc> frold, ok :-)
[13:41] <mohbana> thanks tho

[13:41] <EnvoyRising> mohbana: you mean fedora is hosting adobe reader on the servers?
[13:41] <CorruptTerrorist> ubuntu now uses a light diarrhoea-brown as it's main color
[13:41] <frold> hc: its over my Im new to Ubuntu/linux desktop level :D
[13:42] <grub> hey
[13:42] <hc> frold, hmm? sorry ain't really getting it
[13:42] <mohbana> EnvoyRising, i mean adobe is hosting it on their servers
[13:42] <floppyshuriken> im configuring grub, should I remove quiet splash if I want to see the ubuntu logo when I boot?
[13:42] <frold> hc: its over my noob level... to start mounting things...
[13:42] <EnvoyRising> mohbana: sorry, a bit slow right now. i see what you'er saying. teh rpm is on the adobe site
[13:42] <hc> frold, ah i see :-)
[13:42] <EnvoyRising> frold: did you ever sort out your iso issue?
[13:42] <hc> tanath, what package were you missing?
[13:42] <brobostigon> good afternoon
[13:43] <frold> EnvoyRising: yep, by burning it....
[13:43] <tanath> hc, tk8.5
[13:43] <EnvoyRising> frold: you didn't have to burn it :|
[13:43] <tanath> hc, and the snack library
[13:43] <Kutag1> here I am again
[13:43] <mohbana> EnvoyRising, yes! ubuntu is very popular i am surprised they didn't include a .deb package
[13:43] <EnvoyRising> frold: could have saved you a disc :-\
[13:43] <tanath> hc, those were removed when i uninstalled the repo version
[13:43] <tanath> hc, i installed them again, but no go
[13:43] <EnvoyRising> mohbana: maybe its a redhat thing
[13:43] <hc> tanath, you might have to compile it with the -dev versions of those as well
[13:43] <frold> I know - but mounting and cdemu EnvoyRising was over my level - Im proud Im even was able to convert the .daa file to .iso using poweriso
[13:44] <tanath> hc, well, i'm using their package actually
[13:44] <hc> tanath, "their" package?
[13:44] <EnvoyRising> frold: no. i found a "dee dee dee" method.. that would have allowed you to right click and select mount, lol
[13:44] <tanath> hc, i really shouldn't need to compile. i've found that leads to unnecessary problems at times
[13:44] <EnvoyRising> for the record. I apologize if me saying "dee dee dee method" offended anyone
[13:44] <tanath> hc, the official amsn package
[13:44] <frold> EnvoyRising: too late, but thanks :D
[13:44] <markit> hi, I do need to install an older version of the kernel and related headers, but with aptitude search I can't find it anymore (only last version), how could I do?
[13:44] <orionjoe> can anyone help me install a phillips webcam sic4700/37 ?
[13:45] <Kutag1> Ok guys, I got a Geforce FX5500 and on Windows, a game runs very smoothly. Now I installed the same game under Linux and it appears that the graphics drivers doesn't work properly for it as even the menu us very choppy. Is there a way to force a good driver for my Geforce FX5500? sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx didnt help much
[13:45] <hc> tanath, i've found it easier to compile a package then to use preinstalled packages ...
[13:45] <luigi_> !it
[13:45] <ubotu> Vai su #ubuntu-it se vuoi parlare in italiano, in questo canale usiamo solo l'inglese. Grazie!
[13:45] <EnvoyRising> @ orionjoe's issue: 1, 2, 3, not it!
[13:45] <orionjoe> :(
[13:45] <gopp> any one here use ebox
[13:45] <hc> lol'd ... sorry :p
[13:45] <tanath> hc, you know, the bug in the repo version is probaby something simple enough to fix, if anyone knows how...
[13:45] <hc> orionjoe, please explain your issue so people here might be able to help you better
[13:45] <EnvoyRising> sorry orionjoe. its just that I cried the last time i tried to mess with a webcam
[13:46] <hc> tanath, i don't see a bug in there, it's working fine for me
[13:46] <Kutag1> Ok guys, I got a Geforce FX5500 and on Windows, a game runs very smoothly.

[13:46] <orionjoe> I just downloaded skype and I'd like to use a usb cam
[13:46] <hc> EnvoyRising, why? you still have that post traumatic stress symdrom for wireless?
[13:46] <orionjoe> I'll try not to make you cry :)
[13:46] <tanath> hc, well i was running it before i updated, then when i ran it after the update this morning it stopped working
[13:46] <tanath> hc, did you see the output?

[13:47] <bulkah> my boot screen is dirty ..shows 4 screen whats the problem
[13:47] <orionjoe> or if anyone could just point me in the direction of a website, google wasn't any help
[13:47] <EnvoyRising> its a combined issue hc. its like the apocolyps 12 days of pain
[13:47] <tanath> hc, and, aren't you using a compiled version?
[13:47] <FlorisNL> wu47345: I've just added options e1000 InterruptThrottleRate=0,0,0,0 to /etc/modprobe.d/options and rebooted the machine. However, the problem still exists.
[13:47] <orionjoe> perfect, that's all i think i need
[13:47] <orionjoe> thank you
[13:47] <hc> tanath, no, i compiled it
[13:47] <EnvoyRising> first with wireless, then with webcams...and mouses (or is it mice) with more than 3 buttons (logitec g5)
[13:47] <Kutag1> Ok guys, I got a Geforce FX5500 and on Windows, a game runs very smoothly. Now I installed the same game under Linux and it appears that the graphics drivers doesn't work properly for it as even the menu us very choppy. Is there a way to force a good driver for my Geforce FX5500? sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx didnt help much
[13:47] <tanath> hc, exactly. i'm talking about a bug in the repo version
[13:47] <ilLorenz> hi! can somebody help me install lrmi in order to use vbetest? thanks?
[13:47] <wu47345> FlorisNL: maybe the e1000 driver is already loaded in the initrd, so the option setting has no effect
[13:48] <Kutag1> EnvoyRising, I could connect to my wireless network so easily :S
[13:48] <hc> tanath, that's why i'm suggesting to just compile it from their source ...
[13:48] <tanath> hc, hmm... synaptic says amsn is not installed :/
[13:48] <EnvoyRising> Kutag1: i could too under ubuntu
[13:48] <frederific> Kutag1: are you using the nv driver? Check at System > Admin > Restricted Drivers Manager
[13:48] <hc> tanath, correct since you compiled it from source
[13:48] <tanath> hc, again, no i didn't
[13:48] <EnvoyRising> try doing it with a distro that doesn't have autohardware detection
[13:48] <Kutag1> Frederific, yeah i enabled that one earlier
[13:48] <tanath> hc, for the 3rd time, i used the official package
[13:48] <Kutag1> but I think that it is a wrong detection
[13:48] <hc> tanath, you just said you didnt ... and got that other message
[13:48] <frederific> Kutag1: oh, sorry, can't help then :(
[13:48] <tanath> hc, hm?
[13:49] <Kutag1> I appreciate your try to help me :)
[13:49] <dogfishguzzler> t
[13:49] <bazhang> sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg try this in a terminal Kutag1
[13:49] <tanath> hc, i was originally using the version from the ubuntu repository, which worked until i updated this morning. now i'm using the package from the amsn site
[13:49] <FlorisNL> wu47345: how would I check that?
[13:50] <hc> tanath, which means you didn't compile from source but not installed from the repo?
[13:50] <tanath> hc, the new repo version gave me the pastebin output. the package from the site gave me the tkxcimage error
[13:50] <Kutag1> Bazhang, should I go for nv or nvidia?
[13:50] <jtravnick> kutag1 are you using any visual effects?
[13:50] <EnvoyRising> hc: when you get a moment, check out your pm
[13:50] <Kutag1> jtravnick, I don't think that that is the issue
[13:50] <hc> EnvoyRising, been there, done that, replied
[13:51] <Kutag1> but yeah, I have the desktop Cube enabled
[13:51] <EnvoyRising> hc: i didn't get a reply
[13:51] <hc> oh =,= stupid thing ...
[13:51] <wu47345> wu47345: go to an empty directory and uncompress your initrd there: gzip -cd /boot/initrd.img-`uname -r` | cpio --extract --make-directories
[13:51] <EnvoyRising> are they blocked by default? pms that is?
[13:51] <hc> EnvoyRising, well i said: it's c++ originally, but valve has added a lot of stuff it's just fun to see it all happen
[13:52] <jtravnick> kutag1 I have the same card and if i run any effects i noticed problems with one of my games doom3 to be exact
[13:52] <EnvoyRising> hc: oh ok
[13:52] <akira957> hola a todos
[13:52] <EnvoyRising> well, i guess i have my own issues now: anyone know what would cause me to be allowed to send but not receive pms?
[13:52] <FlorisNL> wu47345: Ok, I've done that.
[13:52] <hc> EnvoyRising, yeah i do
[13:53] <hc> EnvoyRising, i'm not auth'd to the system thus i can't send pms
[13:53] <Kutag1> ah jtravnick, well so what do you recommend?
[13:53] <wu47345> FlorisNL: now do this in the directory: find . -name e1000.ko
[13:53] <EnvoyRising> hc: oh, you didn't register. well register dammit
[13:53] <hc> EnvoyRising, nick in use =,= and the one i DID register i lost the pass to
[13:53] <kazim59> How do we control the permissions on a vfat mounted filesystem? The partition is mounted, but some directories are not readable for my user. For root, they are accessible. chmod & chown don't work.
[13:53] <jtravnick> Kutag1, first thing i would do is run with  out efects and see if that helps also what reselution are you running?
[13:53] <FlorisNL> wu47345: ./lib/modules/2.6.15-26-server/kernel/drivers/net/e1000/e1000.ko
[13:54] <bazhang> Kutag1: nvidia
[13:54] <EnvoyRising> hc: could always spell it out then, HisChild that is
[13:54] <hischild> oh yeah
[13:54] <larson9999> i'm getting an error i haven't seen before.  one of my machines boots but lots of things aren't working.  there's a message that says something like binfmts-misc couldn't be found(loaded?).   the mouse light is on but the mouse doesn't work, ethernet card doesn't connect to the net.  what could i have dorked up?  i haven't installed anything on that machine in a couple months other than the normal updates that the update manager tel
[13:54] <larson9999> ls me about.
[13:54] <hischild> good point
[13:54] <EnvoyRising> kazim59: and you did sudo chmod right?
[13:54] <CorruptTerrorist> omg #ubuntu+1 is NO help
[13:54] <EnvoyRising> or just chmod by itself?
[13:54] <Kutag1> I am using 1280 by 1024
[13:54] <Kutag1> and the game, based on Q3 engine, runs fine on windows with 1024 by 768
[13:55] <wu47345> FlorisNL: so you need to rebuild your initrd with e1000 module blacklisted. but i don't know how to do that.
[13:55] <bazhang> CorruptTerrorist: well it is still only Alpha5--best be patient ;]
[13:55] <kazim59> EnvoyRising: yes
[13:56] <FlorisNL> wu47345: Ok. What exactly would that do, rebuilding initrd with e1000 blacklisted?
[13:56] <EnvoyRising> kazim59: maybe you could change permissions for the user instead of the file?
[13:56] <markit> is there something like  snapshot.debian.net for ubuntu? I need older version of some packages
[13:56] <wu47345> FlorisNL: do you know what a initrd is good for?
[13:56] <kazim59> EnvoyRising: I did sudo chmod. But it says Operation not permitted. I told you its vfat not ext3.
[13:56] <EnvoyRising> markit: backports?
[13:56] <jtravnick> Kutag1, ok thats the same res im running so yea i would try shuting off your effects and see if that helps any
[13:57] <FlorisNL> wu47345: not really, actually. Is it the image that gets loaded when the machine boots?
[13:57] <markit> EnvoyRising: mmm don't know, backports sound to be a different story... but url?
[13:57] <crush_groove> I rebooted last night and now I have what looks like another panel at the bottom of my screen that has never been there .. http://www.picpaste.de/Screenshot_9.png Look like maybe my wallpaper changes dimensions any Ideas
[13:57] <EnvoyRising> kazim59: oh ok. did you do a clean logout of windows? i know if i suspended windows or didn't shutdown properly i was forced out of that partition entirely
[13:57] <Kutag1> Ok jtravnick, going to try it
[13:57] <wu47345> FlorisNL: its an _optional_ image. the image which _must_ be loaded is the kernel image.
[13:57] <kazim59> EnvoyRising: I didn't boot to windows for a month or so. And I don't remember how was the logout :(
[13:58] <jtravnick> Kutag1, cant hurt and can always turn them back on if that dont work
[13:58] <FlorisNL> wu47345: so this is like a fail-safe image?
[13:58] <kazim59> EnvoyRising: the owner of those files is root, and group is plugdev
[13:58] <wu47345> FlorisNL: an initrd serves as a preliminary root filesystem. so kernel modules can be loaded before mounting the actual root filesystem
[13:58] <wu47345> FlorisNL: no, there is no fail safe image
[13:58] <FlorisNL> wu47345: Ah ok
[13:58] <malocite> Morning all, does anyone have experience solving the problem of the ubuntu slowdown?  My system seems to be getting slower by the week with ubuntu and I don't know why
[13:58] <mohbana> has anyone tried this guide out? http://www.howtoforge.com/sharp_fonts_gnome?
[13:58] <wu47345> FlorisNL: fail safe is just a different booting method
[13:59] <EnvoyRising> kazim59: like i was saying, instead of trying to chmod the file, try changing the groups you are in (via system > admin > users and groups
[13:59] <zulerdongle> hi everyone. Im just having some trouble getting my wifi to work in ubuntu. I have guts 7.10 on my desktop and my dwl-g122 rev. C1 (rt73 chipset) works fine. All i have to do is select my wifi network on the top right corner of my screen and put my password and it connects just fine. However on my laptop which has ubuntu 7.04, when i do the same thing it tries to connect but never does. Anyone have any idea as to what could be the problem and how to
[13:59] <zulerdongle>  fix it? Thanks in advance im desperate to get wifi on my laptop since I can only keep it connected with an ethernet cable while its on the floor..
[13:59] <EnvoyRising> kazim59: or sudo su instead of sudo chmod
[13:59] <FlorisNL> wu47345: Ok, so the initrd gets replaced by the actual root filesystem once its mounted?
[13:59] <EnvoyRising> other than that, i'm out of ideas
[14:00] <filthpig> I'm trying to install a game through Cedega, but installation stops, claiming my hard drive is full. Ubuntu also notified me about this, but they're talking about / ... does Cedega use some temp dir on / during install? my /home has 74 gb free space...
[14:00] <kazim59> EnvoyRising: Got it. Thanks. I'll try adding myself to plugdev group.
[14:00] <EnvoyRising> hischild: i like the long name better..so much more tab completion friendly
[14:00] <wu47345> FlorisNL: yes. the tools in the initrd load the appropriate driver modules like ide and ext3, search for the actual root filesystem (by its uuid) and then mount it
[14:01] <hischild> EnvoyRising, yeah i'll stick with it then :p
[14:01] <FlorisNL> wu47345: Ok. Interesting.
[14:01] <hischild> it's also registered and i remember the pass this time :p
[14:01] <Kutag1> jtravnick, it appears that the lag was caused by the desktop effects
[14:01] <FlorisNL> wu47345: So why would I need to blacklist e1000.ko then? Is loaded from the initrd instead of the e1000.ko on the root filesystem?
[14:01] <EnvoyRising> hischild: and maybe i could always run tech help for your mod's irc channel :P
[14:01] <malocite> Morning all, does anyone have experience solving the problem of the ubuntu slowdown?  My system seems to be getting slower by the week with ubuntu and I don't know why
[14:02] <Kutag1> Is there any method to easily switch desktop effects from none to custom with desktop cube etc?
[14:02] <FlorisNL> wu47345: When I look at lsmod, I do seem to have the new e1000.ko file.
[14:02] <hischild> EnvoyRising, we don't really have tech support ... other then on the forums, which basically always comes down to a few steps which end up in "reinstall steam"
[14:02] <EnvoyRising> hischild: i hate steam

[14:02] <Kutag1> EnvoyRising, steam sucks anyway :P
[14:02] <Kutag1> Jtravnick, yeah it works
[14:02] <wu47345> FlorisNL: dont paste in here
[14:02] <EnvoyRising> Kutag1: i think there is an applet or something. exactly why are you needing to turn them on/off?
[14:03] <hischild> EnvoyRising, Kutag1 nothing against steam :p my mod runs on it
[14:03] <FlorisNL> wu47345: Sorry for that. I pushed enter to soon.

[14:04] <FlorisNL> wu47345: One strange thing. I've just rebooted the machine and can't login to it using its public IP. However, trough the second NIC, I am able to connect to it on the internal LAN.
[14:04] <wu47345> FlorisNL: the initrd has its own copy of /etc/modprobe.d/options, so changing that file on the actual root filesystem has no effect
[14:04] <FlorisNL> wu47345: This behavious happened before.

[14:06] <Oli```> My keyboard keeps locking up when I use some apps that steal the keypresses (VMware and Wine, mainly but also native games). This usually means the keyboard thinks I'm holding that key down and unfortunately that makes the system almost unusable. Logging out and in again or restarting X (same thing?) fixes this issue but is very destructive to my workflow. Is there another way to fix it? Like resetting the keyboard?
[14:06] <EnvoyRising> knowbot: no. to find where any program is installed, just use the "which" command in terminal
[14:06] <knowbot> so i run it
[14:06] <FlorisNL> wu47345: What do you mean?
[14:06] <wu47345> FlorisNL: if you log in from the private ip range, you have to use the private ip
