[05:25] <ghata1> What is the purpose of lost+found folder ?
[05:25] <soundray> mariano: thanks.
[05:25] <sylpheedClaws> ...that entry needs an update... desperately...
[05:25] <Pici> ghata1: Its wehere all my lost socks go
[05:26] <sylpheedClaws> AX is used so widely, there are forks of Ubuntu that come with it built-in
[05:26] <mariano> ghata1: for filesystem maintainence
[05:26] <ghata1> Pici: you need to get a girl friend
[05:26] <yell0w> heh Pici
[05:26] <ardchoille> Pici: So _that's_ where they went, lol
[05:26] <idefix_> how can you tell if your DVDrom-controller is broken?
[05:26] <mariano> when your disk dies, you'll find useful stuff there
[05:26] <ghata1> mariano: right, so no need to touch it
[05:26] <Pici> sylpheedClaws: Not official forks
[05:26] <mariano> ghata1: nope
[05:26] <skelter> hey - can anyone tell me a command line to mount my usb flash driv?
[05:26] <sylpheedClaws> Pioneer?
[05:26] <skelter> +e
[05:27] <Yaseax> !worksforme
[05:27] <ubotu> Common Sense: Just because you can, does not mean you should. Think before you do. "Works for me" does not mean it is ok. The latest version of everything is not always useful if you aim for stability.
[05:27] <soundray> skelter: 'sudo mount /dev/sda1 /mnt' (substitute /dev/sda1 with your real device name)
[05:27] <skelter> sda1 is a sata hard dist for me
[05:27] <skelter> so i don't know which one it would be
[05:27] <dmb062082> how does apache run in ubuntu?
[05:28] <UbuntuN00B_HBG> sudo apt-get remove ubotu
[05:28] <ubuntu_> skelter: Try looking at the end of the output of "dmesg".
[05:28] <soundray> skelter: it's probably one of /dev/sdb1, /dev/sdc1, /dev/sdd1...
[05:28] <Pici> skelter: Run dmesg right after you put your flash drive in and see what device it reports
[05:28] <skelter>  ehci_hcd looks ok?
[05:28] <space_ninja> why do ubunut have gnome as the desktop maanger_
[05:28] <space_ninja> their
[05:28] <skelter> [643639.054686]  usb 1-9: new high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 4
[05:28] <ardchoille> space_ninja: You'll have to ask the devs.
[05:28] <skelter> the last line from that
[05:29] <sylpheedClaws> space_ninja: if you don't like it...
[05:29] <idefix_> defrysk?
[05:29] <sylpheedClaws> !kubuntu | space_ninja
[05:29] <ubotu> space_ninja: Kubuntu is Ubuntu with KDE, the K Desktop Environment, instead of Gnome. See http://kubuntu.org for more information - For support: #kubuntu - See also !KDE
[05:29] <Parmenides> space_ninja: you can always use Kubuntu for kde
[05:29] <sylpheedClaws> or...
[05:29] <sylpheedClaws> !xubuntu | space_ninja
[05:29] <ubotu> space_ninja: xubuntu is Ubuntu with Xfce instead of Gnome. For more info, see http://www.xubuntu.org and http://wiki.ubuntu.com/Xubuntu/ - To install from Ubuntu: "sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop". | For support, see #xubuntu | See also: !ubuntu and !xubuntu-channels
[05:29] <soundray> Parmenides: were you able to use the information?
[05:29] <idefix_> is ubuntu/linux fundamentally different from good old DOS?
[05:30] <sylpheedClaws> there's a *buntu for most desktops
[05:30] <exs> does anyone use 'plesk' ?.. if so, where do I access the control panel?.. for example, a domain such as www.phones.com, would plesk be in plesk.phones.com ?
[05:30] <space_ninja> ok
[05:30] <sylpheedClaws> idefix_: clearly
[05:30] <soundray> idefix_: only in minor ways ;)
[05:30] <sylpheedClaws> minor things, like X and GNOME
[05:30] <Parmenides> soundray: it is the right file, but I have to change permissions before I can edit it
[05:30] <sylpheedClaws> ;)
[05:30] <space_ninja> but what's the difference between ubuntu and debian?
[05:30] <sylpheedClaws> packaging
[05:30] <soundray> idefix_: like humans from monkeys
[05:30] <sylpheedClaws> Automatix
[05:30] <sylpheedClaws> lots of differences
[05:30] <Pici> idefix_: DOS is a completely different operating system than Linux
[05:30] <sylpheedClaws> also, Ubuntu's a ton frendlier
[05:31] <sylpheedClaws> IMO
[05:31] <squirrelpimp> flashplayer-nonfree's update-script is broken?
[05:31] <soundray> Parmenides: try 'sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list'
[05:31] <squirrelpimp> can one confirm that?
[05:31] <mindstate> i like dos :)
[05:31] <idefix_> than am I stupid to switch to linux after using DOS as a child?
[05:31] <idefix_> then*
[05:31] <sylpheedClaws> nope
[05:31] <soundray> idefix_: no
[05:31] <sylpheedClaws> idefix_: some commands are similar in Unix and DOS
[05:31] <Pici> idefix_: Stupid? I didnt say that. I used dos as a kid and I love Linux.
[05:31] <sylpheedClaws> likewise
[05:31] <soundray> idefix_: I used DOS as a child, and I switched
[05:31] <j^2> hey all
[05:31] <idefix_> ok cool
[05:32] <mindstate> idefix_, so did i
[05:32] <jrib> squirrelpimp: what error are you getting?
[05:32] <CheshireViking> idefix_, anybody switching to Linux couldn't be called stupid :)
[05:32] <zyth> soundray, www.freedos.org
[05:32] <zyth> ;)
[05:32] <j^2> i messed up my install with a bunch of pkgs that i dont want, is there a way to get rid of most of them?
[05:32] <j^2> ie
[05:32] <squirrelpimp> jrib: a downloading error telling me there's some repo-error...
[05:32] <sylpheedClaws> j^2: nope
[05:32] <FunnyLookinHat> hey does Amarok support accessing (i.e. adding to media library) samba shares?
[05:32] <j^2> i installed ejabber, and i dont want it anymore
[05:32] <Parmenides> soundray: tx! gr8 tip! now if I can only remember it...
[05:32] <sylpheedClaws> oh...
[05:32] <j^2> and the deps
[05:32] <sylpheedClaws> just remove them
[05:32] <j^2> sylpheedClaws: oh
[05:32] <squirrelpimp> looking into the script it reveals that it tries to download version7 from several pages which all seem to fail
[05:32] <sylpheedClaws> if they didn't break anything
[05:32] <soundray> j^2: 'apt-get --purge remove packagename'
[05:32] <j^2> is there a way to see what pkgs i have installed?
[05:32] <squirrelpimp> i didn't check the urls...
[05:33] <jrib> squirrelpimp: it's probably because adobe moved the location of the flash tarball.  What version of flashplugin-nonfree are you using?
[05:33] <squirrelpimp> jrib: latest from edgy
[05:33] <Pici> j^2: Run synaptic, it should been in your administration menu
[05:33] <jrib> squirrelpimp: apt-cache policy flashplugin-nonfree
[05:33] <squirrelpimp> i just downloaded the 9 tarball and perform a manual install
[05:33] <j^2> Pici: it's a server
[05:33] <soundray> j^2: dpkg --get-selections
[05:33] <squirrelpimp> 7.0.68~ubuntu3
[05:33] <j^2> nice thx guys
[05:34] <jrib> squirrelpimp: yeah, you are better off using 9 which is in backports
[05:34] <Pici> j^2: Theres dselect, its a console gui application, but the interface is a little confusing
[05:35] <soundray> Pici: I would *always* recommend aptitude over dselect
[05:35] <squirrelpimp> is it safe to enable backports for all pkgs? or should one only selectively enable bp?
[05:35] <Pici> soundray: I'll keep that in mind. I personally dont use either, so I just picked one off the top of my head
[05:35] <soundray> squirrelpimp: it depends on how much you trust the backports team. I personally have no trouble whatsoever in that respect.
[05:36] <squirrelpimp> k, thx
[05:36] <Pici> soundray: Its safe to enable for all packages
[05:36] <soundray> Pici: nothing is ever safe ;)
[05:36] <sylpheedClaws> !backports
[05:36] <ubotu> If new updated Ubuntu packages are built for an application, then they go into Ubuntu Backports. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuBackports
[05:36] <mindstate> lol
[05:36] <zyth> !forwardports
[05:36] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about forwardports - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:36] <zyth> aww :(
[05:36] <sylpheedClaws> hmmm... thought it would say something about their stability
[05:36] <Pici> soundray: Its about as safe as trusting anything from the repos
[05:37] <sylpheedClaws> it's like upgrading to Debian Sid
[05:37] <soundray> sylpheedClaws: listen to Pici ^
[05:37] <soundray> sylpheedClaws: not at all
[05:37] <sylpheedClaws> it's usually safe, but not completely ironed out
[05:37] <zyth> build it all yourself! from source you audit!
[05:37] <zyth> take the power in YOUR HANDS!
[05:37] <sylpheedClaws> but then again... neither was Etch
[05:37] <soundray> sylpheedClaws: not at all
[05:37] <zyth> oh wait.  this isnt #gentoo
[05:37] <sylpheedClaws> zyth: lol
[05:38] <soundray> sylpheedClaws: backports are very much ironed-out ;)
[05:38] <Pici> zyth: I was going to suggest you move there ;p
[05:38] <Yaseax> can anybody tell me y xscreensaver laggs every few seconds on edgy/nvidia 6600gt (nvidia proprietary driver)?
[05:38] <ardchoille> I run 11 computer, five of which are servers, I only use main, multiverse, universe and backports, and I have never had any big problems in Ubuntu :)
[05:38] <sylpheedClaws> Yaseax: type "cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf"
[05:38] <steff_> ok I'm back
[05:38] <sylpheedClaws> and send us the resuts via Pastebin
[05:38] <ardchoille> I think the biggest problem I eve had was how to change the menu icon.
[05:38] <Yaseax> ok..
[05:38] <sylpheedClaws> !pastebin | Yaseax
[05:38] <ubotu> Yaseax: pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (be sure to give the URL of your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[05:38] <soundray> ardchoille: I worry about your co2 footprint ;)
[05:39] <ardchoille> soundray: You worry too much ;)
[05:39] <steff_> so now  i have started ubuntu
[05:39] <amaia_> hi
[05:39] <Pici> steff_: Congrats
[05:39] <steff_> thanks :)
[05:39] <steff_> but now how to install it
[05:40] <vivh349> do you know a freeware for testing the memory leak in c++
[05:40] <soundray> steff_: did it find your hard disk now?
[05:40] <steff_> no
[05:40] <soundray> steff_: what kind of drive(s) do you have, and how are they connected?
[05:40] <steff_> sata
[05:41] <amaia_> hi, my monitor is not working, what should I do?
[05:41] <defrysk> buy a new one ?
[05:41] <Yaseax> sylpheedclaws: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/7050/           .... it's a dualhead config with xinerama..
[05:41] <Nalleman> How can I get a desktop shortcut to a folder on a FAT32 disk?
[05:41] <soundray> steff_: is it an onboard controller? What's the chipset, and what ubuntu version are you trying?
[05:41] <vivh349> help me please !
[05:41] <jrib> !helpme | vivh349
[05:42] <ubotu> vivh349: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[05:42] <mindstate> Nalleman, nautilus /dir/fat/ i think would work
[05:42] <soundray> Nalleman: ln -s /target/folder $HOME/Desktop/linkname (haven't I told you this?)
[05:42] <steff_> Ubuntu Linux 6.10
[05:42] <Nalleman> soundray, yes. but I restarted X :]
[05:42] <sylpheedClaws> Yaseax: no idea... thought you were using nv instead of nvidia
[05:42] <vivh349> do you know a freeware for testing the memory leak in c++
[05:43] <jrib> vivh349: why not try the c++ channel?
[05:43] <Yaseax> sylpheedclaws: since i put a ''#'' in front of ''Option "AddARGBGLXVisuals" "True"'' gnome-terminal doesn't run too..
[05:43] <[R] eaper> help!!! my ati card doesn't work right :( http://img463.imageshack.us/img463/4847/atix1600qt6.jpg

[05:45] <bauer77> what happens when you type fglxrinfo
[05:45] <[R] eaper> i use the binaryhowto ati guide
[05:46] <[R] eaper> fglrxinfo says direct rendering yes
[05:46] <steff_> but just this messg. "Error! No hard disks were found for the installation. Please check your hardware!"
[05:46] <ghata1> I have just got a USB drive, how do I attached it to my system and automount it when attached. any help ?
[05:46] <soundray> steff_: I will try to help you , but you *have to* answer my questions
[05:46] <jrib> ghata1: have you tried plugging it in?
[05:46] <ghata1> jrib: yes I did. nothing happed

[05:48] <jrib> ghata1: type 'dmesg', plug in usb hard drive, type 'dmesg'
[05:48] <soundray> steff_: I haven't asked for that. You need to find out what SATA chipset you have, and whether it is onboard or a PCI card.
[05:48] <Cdeszaq> anyone in here have experience with LIRC and ubuntu?
[05:48] <steff_> oh okay. sry. where i can find that?

[05:49] <OpenProjects> Can somebody help me with gforge installation? I have some questions.
[05:49] <jrib> ghata1: ok, so do you have /dev/sd*  that corresponds to it then?
[05:49] <jrib> ghata1: oh it said sda, so you should have /dev/sda.  Can you mount that?
[05:49] <old_cymuHep>  !
[05:49] <ghata1> jrib: yes it is there
[05:50] <juancg> hola
[05:50] <jrib> ghata1: what version of ubuntu by the way?
[05:50] <soundray> steff_: from your computer's hardware documentation
[05:50] <OpenProjects> Edgy
[05:50] <old_cymuHep> how to get my php understand russian because my web and forum is in russian....???
[05:50] <OpenProjects> I would like install the gforge 4.5 version
[05:50] <old_cymuHep> i am using ubuntu-server
[05:50] <dmb062082> is there a way to open the file browser with root access?
[05:51] <soundray> dmb062082: 'gksudo nautilus'
[05:51] <ardchoille> dmb062082: gksudo nautilus
[05:51] <defrysk> gksu <filebrowser>
[05:51] <jrib> dmb062082: gksudo nautilus,  this shouldn't really be necessary...
[05:51] <Lice> is there a file where you can see the users rights and so on?
[05:51] <steff_> mom i have to look it up
[05:51] <defrysk> gksudo
[05:51] <defrysk> *
[05:51] <Nalleman> soundray, thanks for the ln -s thingie. Sorry for being such a n00b... :)
[05:51] <Lice> or where is the file
[05:51] <ghata1> jrib: yes I can mount it. I am using edgy

[05:51] <ubotu> LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP. However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL. For help with setting up LAMP on Ubuntu, see  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP - See also the Server CD installation process (different in Edgy+)
[05:51] <soundray> Nalleman: not to worry. You'll be an expert in no time, and then you'll help out others here
[05:52] <soundray> (I hope)
[05:52] <dmb062082> jrib well i want to play around with the files in var/www/ ...my apache server and its a pita with out root axs
[05:52] <soundray> :)
[05:52] <Nalleman> soundray, sure thing!
[05:52] <mindstate> ardchoille, i couldnt imagine guys like u and soundray being newbies lol
[05:52] <jrib> dmb062082: give /var/www better permissions, for example create a www-editors groups or soemthing
[05:52] <nnliu> hi is anyone here familiar with g15daemon?
[05:52] <dmb062082> jrib eh tell me more please
[05:52] <jrib> !permissions | dmb062082
[05:52] <ubotu> dmb062082: The files and directories on an Ubuntu system are organized according to a standard, see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Filesystem_Hierarchy_Standard - file permissions are explained at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FilePermissions - All filenames and directory names (and many other things) are case sensitive in Linux
[05:52] <Pici> old_cymuHep: I think you need to change the page encoding to somthing that supports cyrillic characters.  I'm not sure how to do that but perhaps the folks in #ubuntu-ru
[05:53] <Pici> old_cymuHep: might be able to help
[05:53] <zoli2k> how can I mount .daa image file/
[05:53] <zoli2k> ?
[05:53] <Zaggynl> I think you'll have to convert first, try kiso for that
[05:53] <soundray> mindstate: I got really good over the years at pretending not to be a newbie
[05:53] <jrib> ghata1: k well strange that it doesn't get automounted.  Is gnome-volume-manager running?
[05:54] <ardchoille> soundray: hehe
[05:54] <mindstate> soundray, i try to do the same lol
[05:54] <ardchoille> mindstate: Almost everything I know about Ubuntu, I learned from sitting in this channel and watching others.
[05:55] <mindstate> ardchoille, thats wut i do too...i just sit here..and read what u guys say...even save some stuff..it helps alot
[05:55] <ghata1> jrib: nope it is not, I am not using gnome, I am using fluxbox on X
[05:55] <soundray> I've got a newbie question, though: when you mount a network share via fstab, and the host with the share is down, the client hangs for a long time. How can I make it continue booting quickly, even if the share host is down?
[05:56] <ardchoille> jrib: I thought that daemon ran in xfce too
[05:56] <jrib> ghata1: ok, I guess you can write a udev rule (google for "writing udev rules") or run gnome-volume-manager then
[05:56] <mindstate> is there a channel save here? like a channel save link?
[05:56] <defrysk> soundray, I believe its ctrl-d during boot to skip
[05:56] <jrib> ardchoille: doesn't really matter since he's in fluxbox :P
[05:56] <defrysk> soundray, but not truly sure
[05:56] <ardchoille> jrib: D'oh!
[05:56] <dmb062082> how do i add one more group to the directory
[05:57] <muuhBDXi> hey any one using the satanic edition ?
[05:57] <ardchoille> muuhBDXi: Careful
[05:57] <soundray> defrysk: that's helpful -- but I was thinking there must be some sort of mount option, or an alternative method that doesn't use fstab?
[05:57] <defrysk> soundray, sorry
[05:57] <muuhBDXi> ardchoille:  ?
[05:57] <yomm>    soundray : i'm a newb , but you can set some "on error" flags as well , e.g "on error , remount ro" ,perhaps there is an option to skip mount on error ..
[05:57] <muuhBDXi> why ?
[05:58] <muuhBDXi> should i be carefull using the satanic edition ?
[05:58] <soundray> defrysk: what for? I appreciate it.
[05:58] <ahon> Witam
[05:58] <muuhBDXi> is that what you meant ardchoille ?
[05:58] <defrysk> soundray, sorry not sure about changing settings in fstab I ment ;)
[05:58] <muuhBDXi> is it a trojan ?
[05:58] <soundray> yomm: thanks, I'll check it out
[05:59] <mindstate> what is the satanic edition?
[05:59] <defrysk> muuhBDXi, no its a genuine ubuntu version but not supported by ubuntu
[05:59] <mindstate> sounds bad
[05:59] <DJ_Gentoo> muuhBDXi: nope!
[05:59] <mindstate> lol
[05:59] <muuhBDXi> ubuntu satanic edition
[05:59] <DJ_Gentoo> just a collection of themes
[05:59] <Pici> mindstate: muuhBDXi : Its just some themes, its not a different edition
[05:59] <DJ_Gentoo> it's harmless
[05:59] <defrysk> something like that yes

[06:03] <ardchoille> mindstate: I like irssi in a screen session so I can log in and out of different window managers for testing.. I go to vt1 for chatting.

[06:04] <ardchoille> Mediawiki is quite nice :)
[06:04] <dmb062082> because the install new apps app does not have that section listed for easy browsing

[06:09] <Pici> jaycie-: 4.10?
[06:09] <imontoro> hi everybody
[06:09] <soundray> DJ_Gentoo: it's got to be -printfps, not --print-fps
[06:09] <jaycie-> yup
[06:09] <DJ_Gentoo> okay, then...
[06:09] <DJ_Gentoo> twager: "glxgears -printfps" shows FPS
[06:09] <ardchoille> glxgears --print-fps doesn't seem to work in Dapper
[06:09] <soundray> DJ_Gentoo: and for educational reasons, please suggest -iacknowledgethatthistoolisnotabenchmark
[06:09] <jaycie-> Pici ubuntu 4.10
[06:10] <imontoro> can anybody help me with an ipod not auto-mounting?
[06:10] <jaycie-> warty i think they call it
[06:10] <Quintin> Anyone here use nvu?
[06:10] <DJ_Gentoo> lol... good one
[06:10] <dmb062082> why wouldnt mediawiki install in /var/www/ by default, how can i locate it?
[06:10] <mindstate> dmb062082, whereis mediawiki ?
[06:10] <Quintin> dmb062082: man locate man whereis
[06:11] <soundray> dmb062082: generally, you find out where files install with dpkg -L packagename
[06:11] <ardchoille> 1685.617 FPS  Any good?
[06:11] <Quintin> ardchoille:  ???
[06:11] <scope006> for glxgears?
[06:11] <Quintin> imontoro: what does dmesg say?  ipod is just a usb device
[06:11] <ardchoille> yeah
[06:11] <twager> DJ_Gentoo,  Ta very much
[06:11] <soundray> ardchoille: what part of "it's not a benchmark" don't you understand?
[06:11] <Zaggynl> During upgrade to Edgy I'm asked if the customized config file /etc/login.defs should be kept or replaced, what should I do>
[06:11] <Quintin> that's not a frikking benchmark
[06:11] <Quintin> idiots
[06:11] <ardchoille> soundray: Touche :)
[06:11] <soundray> ardchoille: but yeah, it's pretty good ;)
[06:11] <Pici> jaycie-: The easiest way would be to install a distribution thats not 3 years old
[06:11] <dmb062082> yuck it installed in: mediawiki: /etc/mediawiki1.5 /usr/share/mediawiki1.5 how can i change this to install in a diff directory for future refrence?
[06:11] <Quintin> I've seen nvidia cards that get 16k fps
[06:11] <ardchoille> Pici: hahahaha
[06:12] <imontoro> Quintin, dmesg detects ipod, it's /dev/sdb2, but gnome-volume-manager has stopped automounting it :(
[06:12] <soundray> dmb062082: you can't (and you shouldn't)
[06:12] <bluffer_> ok im back leeched the iso and loaded it in vpc with 128 mb ram and i get a kernel panic will some one talk about it here ?
[06:12] <dmb062082> soundray why do you say that?
[06:12] <soundray> dmb062082: either stick with the default locations, or manage your own by not installing from a .deb
[06:12] <jaycie-> i have looked on forums and don't found what i need...yeah pici but what if u have tried for 2 days the iso for 6.10 and it will NOT install
[06:12] <bluffer_> here is the screen shot
[06:12] <bluffer_> http://img408.imageshack.us/my.php?image=ubuntuyd3.png
[06:12] <dmb062082> ok soundray that would work well
[06:13] <DJ_Gentoo> twager: yw
[06:13] <Cdeszaq> anyone here have experience using LIRC?
[06:13] <soundray> dmb062082: you can always setup symlinks.
[06:13] <Amon-san> what do i need to emerge to have locate available?
[06:13] <soundray> Cdeszaq: is this a survey?
[06:13] <Prez_> someone running edgy with <IP_ADDRESS> kernel and intel 3945 wifi chipset?  i cannot seem to compile ipw3945 modules...
[06:13] <meloka> ola

[06:15] <britt> anybody know when adobe will get on the ball and make flash for PPC?
[06:15] <Cdeszaq> soundray: Well, I installed lirc using apt-get, and it told me to configure my remote using irrecord
[06:15] <imontoro> anybody knows how to configure gnome-volume-manager to automount a ipod? it suddenly stopped automounting it :(
[06:15] <mindstate> which version of ubuntu is more stable..dapper or edgy?
[06:15] <ardchoille> soundray: I'm curious.. if the output of an app is not reliable, why was glxgears written? Why is it distributed in distros?
[06:15] <ardchoille> mindstate: I say Dapper.
[06:15] <Cdeszaq> soundray: I have a Windows MCE Remote
[06:16] <mindstate> ardchoille, would a downgrade from edgy to dapper be possible? and if so is it safe?
[06:16] <soundray> ardchoille: you can compare frame rates under certain circumstances. For example when you use two different drivers on the same hardware.
[06:16] <jaycie-> Pici i have tried 6.06.1 server and regular and 6.10 it will NOT install over 4.10..any thots?
[06:16] <ardchoille> soundray: Ah, ok.
[06:17] <ardchoille> mindstate: I don't know anyting about upgrades. My way of upgrading is to install from CD on an empty hd.
[06:17] <soundray> Cdeszaq: have you found any info on the web that says that your remote is compatible with LIRC?
[06:17] <Cdeszaq> soundray: The problem is that when I try to run irrecord, it says that it "could not init hardware"
[06:17] <Prez_> hello again..
[06:17] <mindstate> ardchoille, lol
[06:17] <Cdeszaq> soundray: Yes, it says it is supposed to be
[06:17] <jaycie-> ardchoille do u do that with an iso cd? thats waht i have
[06:17] <Juhaz> ardchoille, it wasn't written as a benchmark, it's just a toy.
[06:18] <ardchoille> Juhaz: Yeah, thought so
[06:18] <ardchoille> jaycie-: yes
[06:18] <dyrne> jaycie-: can you distupgrade one stetp at a time? warty-->hoary-->breezy?
[06:18] <soundray> ardchoille: even then, you have to make sure that CPU load is roughly the same during both tests
[06:18] <soundray> Cdeszaq: how is the receiver connected? Serial?
[06:18] <ardchoille> soundray: I'm not "guru" enough for that yet, lol
[06:18] <jaycie-> ardchoille how do i wipe off hd with ubuntu on it now?
[06:18] <Cdeszaq> soundray: It is connected via usb
[06:19] <ardchoille> jaycie-: Just install from the cd and have the installer use the hd but erase all partitions. Be aware that you will lose all data, though, so make backups of anything you want to save.
[06:19] <shriphani> can somone please tell me why mc has 2 columns both displaying directories ?
[06:19] <Lunar_Lamp> !usenet
[06:19] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about usenet - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[06:19] <soundray> Cdeszaq: run 'tail -f  /var/log/syslog' and check for error messages as you plug the receiver in.
[06:19] <cherva> how to prevent GKrellM from minimizing with minimize all short cut ?
[06:19] <cherva> shortcut*
[06:19] <jussi01>  I need an equivalent program to this one: http://mac.softpedia.com/get/Math-Scientific/Plot.shtml -----can someone help?
[06:20] <jaycie-> i don't need backups but i put in 6.10 and click the install icon and it freezes up every time.. shoud i wait for the cd i bot to get to me?
[06:20] <imontoro> anybody can help me to debug an ipod with udev/gnome-volume-manager? it does not automount :(
[06:20] <drake> Hello, Is there a way to monitor my Graphics card's temperatures?
[06:20] <Rawr> For some reason I cannot get audio playback from dvds.
[06:20] <Rawr> Any suggestions?
[06:20] <dyrne> imontoro: wouldnt it be easier to just put a mount script on desktop and click when you plug it in?
[06:21] <ardchoille> jaycie-: Not sure, I never had anything freeze on me.
[06:21] <jaycie-> ardchoille thanks for the help.. if i can wipe off the hd i would try that. i have 6.10 on a diff pc and it works fine
[06:21] <cherva> how to prevent GKrellM from minimizing with minimize all shortcut ?
[06:21] <imontoro> dyrne: yep, or modify fstab, but I want to know why it does not appear as another USB flash disk like the rest of them
[06:21] <jussi01> Rawr: Have you checked in alsa that all the volumes are up?
[06:22] <Rawr> yeah
[06:22] <jaycie-> ardchoille is there a way to wipe off hd so i can put in 6.10?
[06:22] <imontoro> dyrne: and besides, automounting is a lot easier for my not-having-sudo-priviledges-users ;)
[06:22] <pfein> how can I install edgy next (ie, different partition) to dapper w/o booting from CD?
[06:22] <ardchoille> I didn't do so well with this keyboard, though. It prints what I type, not what I want, lol
[06:22] <jussi01> Rawr: nd I assume you have all the restricted format stuff...
[06:23] <Rawr> obviously
[06:23] <Rawr> I'm using vlc
[06:23] <ardchoille> jaycie-: If the ISO cd is freezing, I seriously doubt it has anything to do with the current content of the hd. Likely hardware issues or a bad burn.
[06:23] <RainCT> Hi
[06:23] <treeform> can i make my password change every hour to some thing like "password{hour}" ?
[06:23] <Rawr> what media player should I use?
[06:23] <Quintin> treeform: yes
[06:23] <Quintin> Rawr: mplayer.  duh
[06:23] <jussi01> Rawr: have you tried Deeveedee??
[06:23] <Quintin> Rawr: vlc is good too
[06:23] <jaycie-> i put 6.10 cd in then reboot? i have about 3 diff cds i have tried and 4.10 works ok... hm
[06:24] <Rawr> sound still doesn't work, I'll try reinstalling the codecs
[06:24] <shriphani> Rawr, i had problems getting h264 play well in vlc
[06:24] <shriphani> so i used gxine
[06:24] <drake> Is there a way to monitor GPU temp on radeon X1900?
[06:25] <jaycie-> ardchoille i have not been rebooting with cd in.. but shut down then restart.. maybe thats an issue?
[06:25] <krantix> i'm unable to use a smb printer shared under a windows machine.... can anybody help? cups always fails... and puts the jobs on hold, even if it says printer ready...
[06:25] <treeform> Quintin: do you know how?
[06:25] <dyrne> imontoro: understandable. i still havent messed with udev though. dont really see what the problem was with a old dev stucture
[06:26] <superbear> how to kill an daemon, with the pid file?
[06:26] <imontoro> dyrne: neither do I, but I think is something between udev and gnome-volume-manager...
[06:26] <RainCT> I've a little question... On https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuBots its says "They are the only interactive bots allowed on the Ubuntu channels.". Does this refer to ALL ubuntu channels (including that one from LoCo's, like #ubuntu-cat), or only #ubuntu/#kubuntu?
[06:26] <Quintin> treeform: know what?
[06:26] <krantix> can anybody help me with ubuntu and smb printers? thanks! :-)
[06:27] <jrib> RainCT: maybe ask #ubuntu-ops?
[06:27] <superbear> my daemon (openvpn) creates a file with the pid of the daemon. now i want to write a script to kill the process
[06:27] <drake> kill -9 pid
[06:27] <RainCT> jrib ok thanks
[06:27] <soundray> superbear: 'kill $(cat /path/to/pidfile)'
[06:27] <superbear> thx
[06:27] <Pici> I'd avoid using the -9 unless you need to
[06:27] <Rawr> what audio channel should I use with gxine?
[06:28] <Cdeszaq> soundray: There were no errors as I plugged it in
[06:28] <Quintin> drake: ... kill is much better.
[06:28] <soundray> Cdeszaq: were there any messages relating to the plug event at all?
[06:28] <soundray> Cdeszaq: (no pasting here please, in case you were tempted)
[06:28] <Cdeszaq> soundray: Yes
[06:29] <Pici> !paste

[06:29] <Rawr> Damnit, still no sound
[06:29] <Nesco> Hmm...GAIM keeps closing for no reason..anybody got a solution?
[06:29] <soundray> Cdeszaq: so it loaded a driver?
[06:29] <krantix> can anybody help me with a samba printer? it says ready but does not print...
[06:29] <guille> Hi, does anybody knows what's the gtk-engine for the default theme called human?
[06:30] <WaZ_> Rawr: try unmuting PCM in sound countrol
[06:30] <Rawr> I did
[06:30] <Rawr> It wasn't muted.
[06:30] <Pici> guille: I think its clearlooks, but I could be wrong
[06:30] <WaZ_> Rawr: ok then, had the ptoblem that's why ;-)
[06:30] <Cdeszaq> soundray: Here is the output from the plugging in: http://pastebin.ca/367868
[06:30] <superbear> soundray: but kill don't want to read the correct PID it sais: "kill: 1: No such process" but the content of my file is 1899
[06:30] <imontoro> how can I debug a ipod not automounting un ubuntu?
[06:31] <Lunar_Lamp> Could someone recommend me a decent usenet client?
[06:31] <Rawr> wow
[06:31] <Rawr> mp3s are playing anymore either.
[06:31] <Pici> Lunar_Lamp: pan
[06:31] <jrib> guille: /usr/share/themes/Human/gtk-2.0/gtkrc  seems to say "ubuntulooks", but I don't know too many details about themes...
[06:31] <sharperguy> what is the package for the zope interface? I tried zome3 and zope2.9 and zope-common but poker3d still says i need zope interface
[06:31] <guille> Pici, but clearlooks is a theme not an engine isn't it?
[06:32] <Lunar_Lamp> Pici, thanks, I'll take a look - is it GUI or CLI?
[06:32] <Pici> Lunar_Lamp: GUI
[06:32] <krantix> can anybody help me with ubuntu and CUPS? thanks!!!
[06:32] <soundray> Cdeszaq: it sees the device, but it doesn't load a driver for it. You will have to search the web for hints as to where to go from here.
[06:32] <delphiuk> can anyone help me with an Apache starting problem on Ubuntu please?
[06:32] <Cdeszaq> soundray: Ok, thanks
[06:33] <soundray> Cdeszaq: a good starting point would be to look at the output of 'lsusb', identify the line that corresponds to the receiver, and search for the name or the USB ID.
[06:33] <soundray> Cdeszaq: I've only ever used a very simple serial receiver with LIRC.
[06:33] <Lunar_Lamp> Pici, is it possible to use port-forwarding to use usenet groups etc?  That is, tunnel my traffic?
[06:34] <michal_> pls some mp3 player for 5.1 play
[06:34] <michal_> do you know?
[06:34] <Tomcat_> michal_: MP3s are only stereo.
[06:34] <Pici> guille: Yes it is an engine and a theme
[06:34] <dyrne> !anybody| Just post the problem or error message
[06:34] <ubotu> Just post the problem or error message: 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?

[06:34] <Z1nhow_> teste
[06:34] <muuhBDXi> MP3s are only stereo ?
[06:35] <Pici> Lunar_Lamp: I would assume that its possible, but I honestly don't know how to do ti
[06:35] <Lunar_Lamp> Pici, ok, thanks.
[06:35] <delphiuk> apache won't start, and there doesn't seem to be anything in the log explaining why. where would the log be?
[06:35] <muuhBDXi> too manu y peeps
[06:35] <nnliu> hi is anyone here familiar with g15daemon?

[06:37] <Dextorion> mwhahha
[06:37] <muuhBDXi> eat me !
[06:37] <Dextorion> :)
[06:37] <mjrclark> delphiuk: check the init stuff, should be script in /etc/init.d or something, and a llink to that in some other .d folder in /etc/
[06:37] <delphiuk> can't find a /etc/apache2/log directory
[06:38] <royel> delphiuk: sudo /etc/init.d/apache start   <-- try that an you should see a message showing where logs are being stored
[06:39] <Dextorion> muuhBDXi: i so know how you feel. But like royel said, it wont help you :)
[06:39] <delphiuk> oh, royel , spot on, thanks I now have a description as to the problem ;)

[07:20] <stockfisch> do you know which config it modifies?
[07:20] <delphiuk> mjrclark: I have worked out that it is something to do with me trying to configure virtual hosts. I am just reading a howto now
[07:21] <enrique> you know how you can press "ctrl + F#" to get the black screen? well i have huge fonts and would like to change them to tiny
[07:21] <Xzenome> I think Ubuntu only knows about one of the cores of my dual core processor, how can I test to see if it does know about the 2nd core (Windows XP does) and if it isn't using the 2nd core, how can I rectify the situation?
[07:21] <enrique> please help
[07:21] <cables> Xzenome, are you using edgy or dapper?

[07:21] <enrique> you know how you can press "ctrl + F#" to get the black screen? well i have huge fonts and would like to change them to tiny
[07:22] <sjust1216> Anyone know where I could get help writing a bash script using festival
[07:22] <igor> Seveas: I will shoot. I want do a default ubuntu install (ok), then install some addictional packages (i will do this using FAI) (ok). But I want to do some configurations. As: Change GDM background color. Set default user fonts. Set default user background. Configure browser. (I know that I can do this using gconf/mandatory). Right now what I do: I create a package called mydesktop-1.0. this package depends everything that I want install. Inside this package
[07:22] <igor> I have a couple of files (as gdm.custom or /etc/rc.local) that I overwrite over the defaults ones (bad cause I keep recieving that "You want overwrite or keep local settings", I want avoid this). And bad too cause a update can mess with all my configs. and Gconf keys I activate in postinst scripts. This is a good practice? There is better ways to do it? If so. There is somewhere to read about this?
[07:22] <Xzenome> cables: Edgy
[07:22] <mjrclark> enrique: do not repeat your question. I think the cmmand is "resize -s cols rows" , otherwise no idea.
[07:22] <cables> Xzenome, not sure then...
[07:22] <mwe> enrique: you need to change resolution for the frame buffer at boot time
[07:22] <royel> old_cymuHep: this might help http://www.phpbuilder.com/manual/en/configure.php
[07:22] <Xzenome> damn. Any ideas how I could test to see if is using both?
[07:22] <enrique> but which file do i have to modify?
[07:23] <mwe> enrique: /boot/grub/menu.lst but you need some directions and will probably loose the boot splash
[07:23] <Zaggynl> I can't finish upgrading to edgy, 'sudo aptitude dist-upgrade -f' ends with the following error:  'Removing listswt3.1-gtk-gcj \n cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory'
[07:23] <Zaggynl> I'm completely clueless on what to do
[07:24] <ardchoille> enrique: I did it this way: gksudo /boot/grub/menu.lst, go to the lines that start with "kernel" and put "vga=791" (without the quotes) on the end of those kernel lines and reboot. That made the fonts in my vt1-6 smaller.
[07:24] <Zaggynl> It tried the 'howto fix broken depedencies' topic in the forum, but I keep getting the above error
[07:24] <enrique> so do i have to read the man file for grub?
[07:24] <Cdeszaq> How do I kill a process?
[07:24] <Toast> confidential
[07:24] <Zaggynl> Cdeszaq, killall processname
[07:24] <enrique> ok
[07:24] <mwe> ardchoille: but you lost the boot splash too?
[07:24] <enrique> thanks ardchoille
[07:24] <ardchoille> enrique: I meant gksudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst
[07:24] <Xzenome> Zaggynl  try sudo apt-get update? Then try it again
[07:24] <Zaggynl> will try
[07:25] <enrique> ardchoille,  but are there different sizes?
[07:25] <ardchoille> mwe: I don't know, the boot splash is one of the first things I rip out.
[07:25] <mwe> ardchoille: I think you do, though
[07:25] <Zaggynl> Xzenome, the same happens
[07:25] <ardchoille> enrique: Ignore what I said, it's probably bad advice.
[07:25] <enrique> i don't know
[07:25] <enrique> lol
[07:26] <mjrclark> mwe: I looked in my menu.lst and I find no font info, and it is the config for grub, not the shell- so I think it unlikely to contain that option.
[07:26] <mwe> ardchoille: it's not bad advice he can change it back to get the splash if it's lost
[07:26] <Xzenome> Zaggynl, you could always try "sudo update-manager --dist-upgrade"
[07:26] <mwe> mjrclark: you're wrong
[07:26] <enrique> ok, another question then, is there a way to have ubuntu boot to command line instead of the gui login screen?
[07:26] <mwe> mjrclark: changing the resolution for the frame buffer will decrease the font size
[07:26] <ehc> im having trouble installing video codecs. my sources.list is http://dpaste.com/5977/
[07:27] <Zaggynl> Xzenome, 'update-manager: error: no such option: --dist-upgrade'
[07:27] <ehc> any ideas?
[07:27] <ardchoille> mwe: Ah, ok
[07:27] <Dr_willis> !upgrade
[07:27] <ubotu> For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes
[07:27] <Xzenome> Zaggynl, are you still on Dapper?
[07:27] <swarog> hello
[07:27] <mwe> enrique: yes. install rcconf and run sudo rcconf and disable gdm
[07:27] <Zaggynl> Xzenome, no clue
[07:27] <enrique> how do i set ubuntu to start at the command window instead of gui!!!!!!!!!!, lol
[07:27] <Zaggynl> Xzenome, how do I tell?
[07:28] <Dr_willis> enrique,  disable the gdm/kdm/xdm service
[07:28] <enrique> oh, ok, i'll try
[07:28] <Xzenome> Zaggynl, try sudo update-manager -c
[07:28] <mwe> enrique: then run startx or sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start to run X
[07:28] <Zaggynl> Xzenome, 'Software index is broken'
[07:29] <Xzenome> Zaggynl. Do you have a CD to install Ubuntu? If so I suggest you go for a clean install. Even better download and burn a CD for Ubuntu Edgy Eft and install that.
[07:29] <Zaggynl> sigh
[07:29] <Zaggynl> I guess I'll put my dapper backup and wait for Feisty
[07:29] <enrique> do i have to install rconf?
[07:29] <enrique> or do i have to modify the file rconf?
[07:30] <Xzenome> Zaggynl, sorry I couldn't be of more help.
[07:30] <Zaggynl> That's okayt
[07:30] <lorena> ola
[07:30] <kmarius> anyone know what process is blanking my display after 10min or so of idleness? (gnome-screensaver, xscreensaver, gnome-power-manager are off)
[07:30] <Zaggynl> Thanks for the help so far :)
[07:30] <mwe> enrique: rcconf or use update-rc.d but it wont allow you to add it back easily
[07:30] <lorena> k pasa
[07:31] <Xzenome> Zaggynl, do you have backup of your sources.list?
[07:31] <ardchoille> I love Ubuntu, and Dapper is the most rock-solid distro I have ever seen. But, why does Edgy have so many problems? Was it rushed? No offense to anyone, just curious.
[07:31] <Zaggynl> Said that before ;-)
[07:31] <WaZ_> !pastebin >WaZ_
[07:31] <Zaggynl> yep
[07:31] <apokryphos> ardchoille: it was rushed.
[07:31] <ardchoille> apokryphos: I thought so.
[07:31] <apokryphos> ardchoille: 4 month release-cycle
[07:31] <steel_lady> easy question: I have a font that I wanto to install on the system. what should I do. I went to system preferences to folder font and i see all fonts but not the path to it. how should I put it in?
[07:31] <Zaggynl> Xzenome, in fact, I have a backup of my whole linux hdd
[07:31] <ardchoille> apokryphos: Ah, ok.
[07:33] <Xzenome> Zaggynl, I suggest you just revert to that then. It is probably the easiest way. Next time you might want to upgrade via "sudo update-manager -c".
[07:33] <Zaggynl> Xzenome, well this second time I did so
[07:33] <Zaggynl> I keep getting this:  'Removing listswt3.1-gtk-gcj \n cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory'
[07:34] <xerophyte> does anybody know why do i get this error agetty[5306] : /dev/ttyS0: No such file or directory ?
[07:35] <Jeeves_Moss> does anyone know how to take that annoying "ubuntu" spash screen off of the boot?  I love seeing everything scroll by when it boots
[07:35] <ardchoille> Jeeves_Moss: Yes.
[07:35] <enrique> yeah me too
[07:35] <enrique> lol
[07:35] <Dr_willis> 'nosplash' option in the grub setttings :)
[07:35] <Dr_willis> disables it totally
[07:35] <enrique> although i don't understand what's going on
[07:35] <enrique> lol
[07:35] <Jeeves_Moss> Dr_Willis:  I tried doing that, but it keeps reverting back to the old settings.
[07:35] <ardchoille> Jeeves_Moss: gksudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst  <-- open that and remove the word "splash" from the kernel lines.
[07:36] <enrique> in the grub settings, is there a way to set the size of the fonts of the console?
[07:36] <Jeeves_Moss> Dr_Willis:  I don't really want to play with GRUB.  I'm afraid I'll kill it.  this is my work/personal laptop, and I think I'll screw it up!!
[07:36] <RkyRaccoon55> can somebody help me get my drivers running for my radeon x1950 pro?
[07:37] <ardchoille> Jeeves_Moss: If you find you like it that way, also take the word "splash" our of the line that starts with: # defoptions
[07:37] <Jeeves_Moss> ardchoille:  ok, thnaks.  I'll have a look when I boot into Ubuntu.  I'm stuck in M$ right now.
[07:37] <Zaggynl> Anyone willing to help me through updating my dapper->edgy? I have a backup and today and tomorrow for it
[07:37] <ardchoille> Jeeves_Moss: eeewwww
[07:38] <enrique> ardchoille, thanks for your help
[07:38] <Zaggynl> I tried twice so far and failed
[07:38] <ardchoille> lol
[07:38] <ardchoille> enrique: You're welcome :)
[07:38] <RkyRaccoon55> can anyone help me with installing ati drivers that work with the x1950 pro?

[07:41] <RkyRaccoon55> anyone here know how to install drivers for the radeon x1950 pro?
[07:41] <qnull_> anybody has experience in installing ubuntu on a virtual pc?
[07:42] <Jeeves_Moss> qnull_:  what virtual PC system are you installing it on?
[07:43] <qnull_> I have to use Microsoft VPC 2007 at work
[07:43] <CPUnerd> if he mentionned virtual pc it's probably the miscrosoft one otherwise he would mention vmplaer :P
[07:43] <Jeeves_Moss> qnull_: never installed it on that.  I'm not lucky enough to have that much $$ floating.  I know how to do it in VMWare.
[07:44] <CPUnerd> :P same here.
[07:44] <Jeeves_Moss> qnull_:  I'm acully updating my v-install of it in VMWare right this second.
[07:44] <RkyRaccoon55> can someone please help me? I have ubuntu running but i need some video drivers for an ati radeon x1950 pro.  Can someone please help?
[07:44] <CPUnerd> haha :)
[07:44] <CPUnerd> i'm apt-get upgrade'ing now :)
[07:44] <CPUnerd> trying to install nvidia driver
[07:45] <qnull_> Jeeves_Moss: yes that easy: just download a vmWare image
[07:45] <rb007> is there a way to force ubuntu to maintain my custom DNS?  It keeps switching back to the ultra-slow default when I want it to use openDNS...
[07:45] <ramonsa> hello!
[07:45] <Jeeves_Moss> qnull:  no actully, I just d-loaded the ISO for ubuntu, mounted the virtual CD to the ISO, and fired it up.  it runs the install the same way it would on a regular PC
[07:45] <sebrock> when I try "arecord -d cd -t wav foobar.wav" the file does not get bigger... so no information is stored in it? How can I record the microphone?
[07:45] <gabi> hi
[07:46] <Jeeves_Moss> gabi:  hi
[07:46] <qnull_> Jeeves_Moss: to download is the way you have to do it if you only have the vmware player
[07:46] <CPUnerd> that's it.. totally busted my thing.
[07:47] <ramonsa> Question: I am using Ubuntu 6.06 LTS and my ipod is not detected when connected to USB port. Any suggestions?
[07:47] <Jeeves_Moss> qnull:  I actully have VMWare workstation 5.5.3
[07:47] <CPUnerd> ramonsa, look at hmm what's the name yet.
[07:47] <Jeeves_Moss> qnull_: I just saved the Ubuntu ISO to another directory on my M$ box, then mapped the v-CD to the ISO
[07:47] <CPUnerd> google, or http://www.ubuntux.org/how-to-use-an-ipod-with-ubuntu

[07:50] <kevin> Greetings, the computer I borrowed from work used to be on a proxy server. Currently export http_proxy and ftp_proxy are set, I type: export http_proxy='' to unset http and ftp, it works until I log back in again and then they revert back to the old proxy settings. I also cannot install the updates it says are available because that is trying to use the proxy settings as well. How can I update?
[07:50] <ramonsa> CPUnerd: Thanks for the tip, I will check it out.
[07:50] <royel> trusting anything in this world is risky .. sadly
[07:51] <kevin> how do I change the proxy settings for update manager?
[07:51] <Jeeves_Moss> ardchoille:  in Gates we trust?  naaa, let's keep him OUT of the whitehouse!
[07:52] <yomm>  vmware rules absolutely over VPC
[07:52] <numist> that's a fact
[07:52] <yomm> no doubt
[07:52] <Jeeves_Moss> qnull_:  you have to question who will be faster.  True, M$'s excuse is built in, but VMWare is small and fast.
[07:53] <yomm> and you can get vmware ( player & server ) for free !
[07:53] <steel_lady> easy question: I have a font that I wanto to install on the system. what should I do. I went to system preferences to folder font and i see all fonts but not the path to it. how should I put it in?
[07:53] <Jeeves_Moss> yomm:  amen to that one!
[07:53] <sebrock> is it a common problem that sound recorder hangs?
[07:53] <igor> steel_lady: go to ~/.fonts folder

[07:54] <igor> steel_lady: put your font there.. and voila
[07:54] <Kayin> I have a bit of a problem, I've got a Vaio laptop with Ubuntu Edgy on it and there's a VGA port for an external monitor on the back which I plan to use to display my presentation on a big screen on Monday, but I can't get it to work.
[07:54] <igor> steel_lady: if this dir didn't exist. .Create it. Open your home folder with nautilus and create a FOLDER called .fonts (with the DOT)
[07:54] <asti> tim167: you need to use an offline browser, like HTTrack for that
[07:55] <Kayin> Help would be very much appreciated.
[07:55] <eltese> anyone who can help me make vmware workstation play up and install .iso's?
[07:55] <steel_lady> igor, there is some folder for fonts but I can't see path to it
[07:55] <yomm> :Jeeves : as if there was any competition between the two :)
[07:56] <igor> steel_lady: there is 2 fonts folders: System and user. Put in your user folder the path is ~/.folder
[07:56] <tim167> asti: but i have FlashGot plugin for Firefox, that should be able to do this no? (using Aria or something similar) anyway I'll look at HTTrack, thank you

[07:59] <Dead-Locked> igor: They need to be rars.

[08:05] <igor> Dead-Locked: explain exactly what you wanna do?
[08:05] <Jeeves_Moss> rb007:  it means my DHCP server looks @ the server's MAC address, then asigns the corect addresses, etc to it.  that way, if I swap out a server, I just yank the card, no need to fiddle with the IP settings.
[08:05] <Dr_willis> halkonst,  fglrx is not compiled inmto the kernel.. if rmmod dont remove it - its because its in use.

[08:06] <Jeeves_Moss> rb007:  I'm googling it, but I can't find what I'm looking for.  try looking in the Ubuntu forums.  and once you staticly map things, Ubuntu should be smart enough not to overwrite it.  I stress SHOULD be.
[08:07] <igor> Dead-Locked: you should learn bash programming.. but today im on good mood ;-)
[08:07] <rb007> Jeeves_Moss: thanks, I will look at the forums
[08:07] <chuckf> Dead-Locked, off hand I'd do a spreadsheet with the first col rar, second column options, third column file name (from ls >files.txt)
[08:07] <Kayin> I have a bit of a problem, I've got a Vaio laptop with Ubuntu Edgy on it and there's a VGA port for an external monitor on the back which I plan to use to display my presentation on a big screen on Monday, but I can't get it to work. Help would be very much appreciated.
[08:07] <chuckf> Dead-Locked, then output as txt and make it an executable
[08:07] <chuckf> script
[08:07] <ardchoille> Dead-Locked: What is the rar command to rar a file?
[08:07] <Jeeves_Moss> rb007:  as for my mapping issues, as I said, the onyl reason why I did it that was was for making things simple.  I'm lazy, so I normaly just yank the card, and stuff it onto the new server.  Then network boot it.
[08:08] <Squee> I'm having trouble with setting up an encrypted filesystem (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EncryptedFilesystemHowto4).  Can anyone see anything wrong with the last 4 lines of step 6?  That is where i'm stuck.  It tells me "device-mapper: create ioctl failed: device or resource busy"
[08:08] <Dead-Locked> Trying to find the rar command
[08:08] <Dead-Locked> 1 sec
[08:08] <RkyRaccoon55> can someone please help me with my video drivers?
[08:08] <rb007> Jeeves_Moss: lazy is the way to go... no need to make more configuration work
[08:08] <igor> Dead-Locked: for FILE in PUTDIRNAMEHERE/* ; do rar a ${FILE}.rar ${FILE}; done
[08:08] <Hasrat_Usa> what's wrong with video drivers RkyRaccoon55?
[08:08] <ardchoille> Dead-Locked: Sounds like it'd be easy to do a "for" command for those 30 files.
[08:09] <gumpish> what happens if I remove the ubuntu-desktop package?
[08:09] <rb007> gumpish: why?
[08:09] <zcat[1] > gumpish: very little.
[08:09] <RkyRaccoon55> i cant get them running.  I have a radeon x1950 pro and have tried so many things to get them running and all that happens is that ubuntu wont lanuch so I gotta re-install
[08:09] <Jeeves_Moss> rb007:  the orignal idea was to network boot the servers, then have them auto add to the cluster, but I never got that far before I moved.
[08:09] <igor> ardchoille: here is the "FOR" ;-)
[08:09] <rb007> nice
[08:09] <zcat[1] > gumpish: It will make upgrades difficult in future though
[08:09] <ardchoille> igor: lol
[08:10] <gumpish> because my update alert is saying I have some VOIP client installed (ekiga) which I don't need, but apt-get says if I remove it, it'll remove ubuntu-desktop as well.
[08:10] <Dead-Locked> Igor: like this "for FILE in MEDIA/* ; do rar a ${FILE}.rar ${FILE}; done"
[08:10] <Dead-Locked> What if i'm in the directory already?
[08:10] <Hasrat_Usa> RkyRaccoon55 what's the problem actually? are you suspecting that your video card drivers aren't installed properly? didn't you boot the pc off the LiveCD?
[08:10] <igor> Dead-Locked: like this..
[08:10] <ardchoille> Dead-Locked: for i in .
[08:10] <xadloki> hello, anyone know where to calibrate a monitor in ubuntu ? I have this icc profile for this display im using and I would like to apply it... Also I use a Eye-one Colormatch device to calibrate displays ? is there anyway to use this in linux ?
[08:10] <RkyRaccoon55> i cant install my drivers, right now im running from a fresh install of ubuntu
[08:10] <igor> ardchoille: will not work AFAIK
[08:11] <RkyRaccoon55> every time i try to install them i screw something up and cant launch ubuntu and have to re-install
[08:11] <igor> ardchoille: yeah.. didn't work.
[08:11] <ardchoille> igor: Hmm.. works with ls
[08:11] <ardchoille> I thought it would work with rar
[08:11] <igor> Dead-Locked: use your imagination. ;-) Should be a good exercise 4 your new life in shell
[08:11] <Squee> I'm having trouble with setting up an encrypted filesystem (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EncryptedFilesystemHowto4).  Can anyone see anything wrong with the last 4 lines of step 6?  That is where i'm stuck.  It tells me "device-mapper: create ioctl failed: device or resource busy"
[08:11] <Jeeves_Moss> igor:  when you get a sec, can you walk rb007 through that configuration?
[08:12] <igor> ardchoille: will not work with for.. you should learn a little more about SHELL expansion.
[08:12] <halkonst> RkyRaccoon55: what drivers are you trying to install and which version of ubuntu are you running?
[08:12] <jacek> heloo all
[08:12] <Jeeves_Moss> igor:  shell rocks, and confuses most M$ guys!!
[08:12] <RkyRaccoon55> im running edgy and have tried to install both the fglrx drivers and the drivers from ati
[08:12] <RkyRaccoon55> i want any driver that will work
[08:12] <Squee> Has anyone here set up an encrypted root in ubuntu?
[08:13] <igor> Jeeves_Moss: rb007 ask again, cause read everything  before is really crazy.
[08:13] <ardchoille> Dead-Locked: try this: for i in .; do rar $i.rar $i; done
[08:13] <igor> ardchoille: will not work
[08:13] <halkonst> how did you install the fglrx? through repos or by compiling it yourself?
[08:13] <igor> ardchoille: a good thest for i in . ; do echo $i;  done
[08:13] <Jeeves_Moss> igor:  Rb007 just needs help staticly mapping a DNS server.  I can't remember how to do it.  I don't do static files on my servers.
[08:13] <ardchoille> igor: I wonder why ls works with for
[08:13] <danbar> hello
[08:13] <igor> Jeeves_Moss: /etc/resolv.conf ?
[08:14] <igor> Jeeves_Moss: or using interfaces file?
[08:14] <dafart> Hi there, is there anyone who can tell me how to mount hfs+ rw from ubuntu live cd?
[08:14] <ardchoille> igor: Why does this work? for i in .; do ls $i; done
[08:14] <Jeeves_Moss> igor:  he's on a corp network, and his laptop (I'm guessing) is defaulting to some slow DNS server.
[08:14] <igor> ardchoille: cause ls do this.
[08:14] <ardchoille> igor: Ah, ok.
[08:15] <igor> Jeeves_Moss: to overide DHCP settings try to do this.
[08:15] <halkonst> RkyRaccoon55: did you install the fglrx drivers available from the repos or did you do it by downloading them from ati's website and compiling them yourself?
[08:15] <RkyRaccoon55> i didnt dl them from ati, i used the repos
[08:15] <Jeeves_Moss> igor:  tell rb007, not me.  as I said, I have everything MAC resolved.  then the units net boot to be added to the HTTP cluster.  that way I don't have to do anything other than add the MAC to the DHCP server.
[08:16] <RkyRaccoon55> halkonst: ive googled everything i could think of to find an answer before coming here
[08:16] <igor> rb007: try to add this entry to /etc/network/interfaces:  dns-nameservers DNSIPHERE
[08:16] <RkyRaccoon55> halkonst: is it possible that ubuntu doesnt support x1950 pro?
[08:16] <halkonst> RkyRaccoon55: so I guess you've seen this guide: http://wiki.cchtml.com/index.php/Ubuntu_Edgy_Installation_Guide ?
[08:16] <igor> rb007: put somewhere in the interface declaration
[08:16] <xadloki> So is there no way to color profile displays in ubuntu ?
[08:17] <halkonst> RkyRaccoon55: and the one in the ubuntu documentation
[08:17] <RkyRaccoon55> halkonst: yea, ive basically memorized that page from trying it so many times
[08:17] <halkonst> RkyRaccoon55: check the release notes on ati.com to see if your card is supported
[08:18] <igor> rb007: btw if you do: echo nameserver IPHERE > /etc/resolv.conf  will do the job.. but if resolvconf package is installed.. will reset your config on reboot. (the first solution is the right one to systems with resolvconf package, as ubuntu edgy)
[08:18] <RkyRaccoon55> halkonst: i will gladly try it again.  Is there any way to keep from messing up ubuntu when i try?
[08:18] <RkyRaccoon55> halkonst: so i dont need to re-install?
[08:18] <Dead-Locked> That didnt work. Where's the best place to begin learning bash
[08:18] <igor> rb007: remeber only root can do it. If you aren't root. try su or sudo .
[08:18] <halkonst> RkyRaccoon55: ubuntu will sometimes tell you it is when in fact it is not, atleast thats true for my 9200SE
[08:18] <henriw156> I have a question could someone awenser it?
[08:18] <Alonea> When I try to shut down or restart it just goes to a black screen, but my computer does not turn off.
[08:18] <igor> Dead-Locked: worked here
[08:18] <halkonst> RkyRaccoon55: keep a backup of your working xorg.conf
[08:19] <Pici> !ask | henriw156
[08:19] <ubotu> henriw156: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[08:19] <dxdemetriou> for making a tap0 must be in the range from my network 192.168.1.x?
[08:19] <Assid> err.. is berly project supported in ubuntu 6.06 lts ?
[08:19] <halkonst> RkyRaccoon55: if somethings gets fucked up, boot in recovery mode and do a $ sudo rm xorg.conf && sudo cp xortg.conf.bak xorg.conf
[08:19] <ramonsa> CPUnerd I have checked www.ubuntux.org/how-to-use-an-ipod-with-ubuntu and hit a stumbling block in gtkpod: '/media/iPod/iPod_Control/iTunes/iTunesDB' does not exist. Import aborted.
[08:19] <royel> RkyRaccoon55: just did a search on ubuntu forums, seen your post an countless more, seems to be a pretty widespread problem trying to get that card to work.
[08:19] <Alonea> I think this started after I got my video card working (the fglrx how to for ati cards so you can have 3d acceleration)
[08:20] <henriw156> Pici: when i turn off my PC the ubuntu logo is corrupted but when i turn on the PC its fine. Is this normal?
[08:20] <RkyRaccoon55> royel: yea, i noticed that too
[08:20] <royel> RkyRaccoon55: did you read thru all the threads on the ubuntu forums, there is a couple that claim to have got it working do the xorg.conf manually
[08:20] <igor> Dead-Locked: for x in *; do rar a ${x}.rar $x ; done (created 40 rar files with FILENAME.rar extension on my dir)

[08:21] <henriw156> Pici:??????
[08:21] <gizmo_the_great1> Hi. I am having trouble using configure, make and install. Configure goes OK, but make fails. It gives the following putput : http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/7074/ Can anyone help me?

[08:21] <igor> gizmo_the_great1: what are you making?
[08:21] <henriw156> Pici: how did you know?
[08:22] <igor> ardchoille: isn't a rar issue..
[08:22] <gizmo_the_great1> igor: the name of the app you mean?

[08:22] <igor> gizmo_the_great1: maybe ;-)
[08:22] <Pici> henriw156: I'm assuming.  Do you get corrupted graphics when you press ctrl-alt-f1?
[08:22] <valehru> ok, i have mpd installed on a server.  I can access the mpd server from my laptop and I can control it.  Is there anyway for me to stream this audio onto my laptop as currently it only plays from the servers speakers....
[08:22] <Dead-Locked> That'd probaly work
[08:22] <RkyRaccoon55> halkonst: thanks thats gonna save me some time
[08:22] <ardchoille> igor: What was it? He wanted to rar 30 files each in its own rar
[08:22] <gizmo_the_great1> igor: http://www.afflib.org/
[08:22] <henriw156> wait

[08:23] <gizmo_the_great1> igor47: does that give you any ideas?
[08:23] <igor> Dead-Locked: both shoul work... you have just to learn what this line mean.
[08:24] <Alonea> anyone have any idea what I can do to get my computer to shut down without me having to turn it off by holding my power button down?
[08:24] <royel> RkyRaccoon55: Method 2
[08:24] <chuckf> Dead-Locked, what is the reason that it must be rar'd?
[08:24] <gizmo_the_great1> Alonea: sudo shutdown -h now
[08:24] <igor> gizmo_the_great1: you have to install curl and expat dev packages
[08:24] <alex_spaz> alonea are you using visual interface?
[08:24] <Alonea> that works, but how do I shut down with the logout button like I did before? It used to work.
[08:24] <gizmo_the_great1> igor47: cool. how did you know that?

Technically, I was thinking that you had a framebuffer issue, which can cause screen corruption in the TTY (fullscreen terminal) sessions as well.

[08:36] <halkonst> I'm trying to get fglrx working with a 9200SE on feisty (kernel 2.6.20-8-generic), I installed the 8.28.8 version of fglrx because that is the latest version supported by my video card. It's working ok but I have no DRI and a few errors in my /var/log/Xorg.0.log. According to that log my Kernel Module Version is 8.33.8 which does *not* match my driver which is of version 8.28.8. Does anyone know how replace the Kernel Module?
[08:36] <kane77> henriw156, then you'll do fine with jre
[08:36] <gizmo_the_great1> igor: OK. Thanks. I will give up on it then. As long as I know it's not me making the mistake. Thanks again

[08:37] <igor> gizmo_the_great1: universe repository
[08:37] <SPACE_NINJA> I was wondering if I could get the latest version of ubuntu when I use and old installation CD.
[08:37] <igor> gizmo_the_great1: add it 2 your sources.list
[08:38] <royel> Squee_: I'm no expert there, but it looks to me like your trying to change somethign that is mounted.. perhaps you should try umount the device first
[08:38] <Alonea> alex_spaz: there is a how to somewhere. If you get a black screen trying it the automatic way, then do it the manual way.
[08:38] <igor> SPACE_NINJA: yes you can.. but download the newest version. will be easier, better and smoother
[08:38] <Squee_> royel: i thought about that but I just wiped the drives so I'm not sure how that works
[08:38] <alex_spaz> got a card that supports 3d but seems that 3d acceleration if turned off can someone help me utrn it on
[08:38] <SPACE_NINJA> but I don't have the cd
[08:38] <Squee_> is there a way i can see all places a device is mounted?
[08:38] <SPACE_NINJA> no cd
[08:38] <igor> SPACE_NINJA: download it.
[08:38] <SPACE_NINJA> empty
[08:38] <royel> Squee_: sudo mount
[08:39] <cables> Where are my screensaver hacks stored?
[08:39] <igor> SPACE_NINJA: with less than 1 us$ you can get one near your home..
[08:39] <igor> SPACE_NINJA: btw. you can . ;-)
[08:39] <Squee_> royel: yea they aren't mounted
[08:40] <royel> Squee_: whats the exact command your giving?
[08:40] <Alonea> alex_spaz: whats your card?
[08:40] <SPACE_NINJA> yes but it's too late
[08:40] <Squee_> echo "0 `blockdev --getsize /dev/sda2` crypt aec-cbc-essiv:sha256 $SWAPKEY 0 /dev/sda2 0" |dmsetup create swap

[08:41] <JONES3700> eh finally got it working, reconfigured xorg.conf once more, rebooted... and everything is fine now
[08:41] <alex_spaz> my card is a trident cyberaladdin p-4
[08:41] <royel> Squee_: you try to mount it as well?
[08:42] <royel> Squee_: are you 'root' user?
[08:42] <cables> Hey, does anyone know where my screensaver hacks are stored?
[08:42] <Alonea> alex_spaz: never even heard of that company. If it was nvidia or ati, I might be able to help you. Sorry. Good luck
[08:43] <kane77> !iso
[08:43] <ubotu> To mount an ISO disc image, type "sudo mount -o loop my.iso <mountpoint>" There is a list of useful cd image conversion tools at http://wiki.linuxquestions.org/wiki/CD_Image_Conversion Always verify the ISO using !MD5 before burning. Burning .iso files: see !burn
[08:43] <linxeh> alex_spaz: i didn't realise trident were still around :)
[08:43] <gizmo_the_great1> igor: forgive me. I have my sources.list open. But I am trying to work out (having never done it) what I am supposed to add to it to get afflib in there using the universe repo?
[08:43] <linxeh> Alonea: trident are from days gone by :)
[08:44] <Alonea> linxeh: ah, that sounds about right. Would those cards even be supported any more? I really would not know.
[08:44] <igor> gizmo_the_great1: somewhere there is a commented line talking about universe. uncoment it. You can also use synaptic to do this (better 4 you AFAIK)
[08:44] <alex_spaz> its uses the trident driver for ubuntu
[08:45] <linxeh> Alonea: its a current card though this time
[08:45] <orangefly> how do i do the cube thing with beryl....???....
[08:45] <gizmo_the_great1> igor: this is my sources.list : http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/7078/
[08:45] <linxeh> orangefly: render 4 desktops, project them onto a cube, zoom out, then rotate the virtual cube, rendering the rotation to the screen
[08:46] <Alonea> linxeh: ah. well, I hope he figures it out.
[08:46] <kane77> ehm.. a basic question.. How do I "cd" into a directory that has spaces in name?
[08:46] <linxeh> kane77: cd "put quotes around the directory"
[08:46] <Ribs> cd "quote it"
[08:47] <Pici> kane77: escape the spaces with \
[08:47] <linxeh> kane77: or cd put\ a\ slash\ in\ front\ of\ spaces
[08:47] <barktpolar> Hello, Does Ubuntu Dapper Drake atuomatically detect Wireless Adapters for when the system is on?
[08:47] <base_slash> hello i need help
[08:47] <base_slash> hello?
[08:47] <linxeh> base_slash: ask away
[08:47] <linxeh> you dont need to ask to ask
[08:47] <kane77> linxeh, Pici thx
[08:47] <clearzen> barktpolar:Sometimes not always
[08:47] <orangefly> ok....nevermind....no idea what you mean by projecting onto a cube and rendering....
[08:48] <linxeh> alex_spaz: what's the problem with your card ?
[08:48] <base_slash> ok i am having trouble installing ubuntu on my laptop
[08:48] <kelsin> orangefly: beryl shoudl install with it's settings manager, you can look up there what the keybindings are, or set them yourself
[08:48] <linxeh> orangefly: 3d projection
[08:48] <barktpolar> OK, because as soon as I buy one, I was going to use Wi-Fi on Ubuntu
[08:48] <Ribs> orangefly, Is beryl running now?
[08:48] <orangefly> yes it's working fine....
[08:48] <Ribs> orangefly, If so, just Ctrl+Alt, click (and hold) the mouse on the desktop, and move the mouse around
[08:48] <linxeh> orangefly: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/3D_computer_graphics#Projection
[08:48] <SPACE_NINJA> I want to make programs, I tried qt but what do I have to program if I use ubuntu?
[08:48] <orangefly> going from desktop to desktop it does that effect....
[08:49] <yotux> can any one offer some advice on efax and how to set it up?
[08:49] <clearzen> barktpolar:It depends on the chip set. If I where you I would find a list of supported cards before you bought something
[08:49] <kelsin> SPACE_NINJA: you can use whatever you want. Ubuntu by default uses Gnome as a desktop which uses GTK as a gui toolkit
[08:49] <SPACE_NINJA> is GTK easy to learn?
[08:49] <orangefly> cool....thanks....

[08:50] <SPACE_NINJA> kelsin, is it c or c++?
[08:50] <kelsin> SPACE_NINJA: that's a very relative question, it's C, but their are bindings for python, ruby, lisp, java you-name-it

[08:51] <Dead-Locked> I need beginer bas-scripting first!
[08:51] <kelsin> SPACE_NINJA: you can find this stuff out on your own, just use google and goto the gtk homepage, base GTK is in C so of course no classes, the other language bindings can use classes
[08:51] <Pici> Dead-Locked: "This tutorial assumes no previous knowledge of scripting or programming"
[08:51] <Dead-Locked> Pici: Thanks!

[09:08] <ubotu> RkyRaccoon55: pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (be sure to give the URL of your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[09:08] <igor> Enselic: undo it ;-)
[09:08] <phaded> lintux: it's under system settings
[09:08] <royel> RkyRaccoon55: send me the paste of ls -l
[09:08] <KirG0FF> BTW, has anybody updated proprietary ATI to 8.34.8 ?
[09:08] <Assid> err.. can i change the number of simultanous downloads used in apt/package updates?
[09:09] <igor> Enselic: I will save in my good scripts dir..
[09:09] <LinTux> phaded: I can find it here, I just installed KDE via apt-get, might something be missing
[09:09] <Ruidoso_Silencio> hello. Is there a way to decompress .ace files??
[09:09] <igor> Enselic: to do the same task I do shell black magic with readline and ls -1 *
[09:10] <joerack> guys , can you recommend me some imaging software please?
[09:10] <Enselic> joerack: GIMP
[09:10] <joerack> i mean to make ghost images of the O.S
[09:10] <igor> Enselic: fast as a netsplit ..
[09:10] <igor> LOL!!!!
[09:10] <Enselic> igor: I'm a gimper, what can I do ;)
[09:11] <Enselic> igor: it's like autoreply
[09:11] <KirG0FF> I had trouble resuming from sleep mode with the previous version. I could only see the blank screen after resuming from sleep. ATI claimed they have fixed that issue, but I'm still facing the problem :(
[09:11] <igor> joerack: there is a good GIMP filter to do ghost images ;-) maybe blur should help you
[09:11] <igor> joerack: ;-)
[09:11] <RkyRaccoon55> royel: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/7081/
[09:11] <joerack> meh
[09:11] <igor> joerack: systemimager
[09:11] <Enselic> joerack: what's a ghostfilter?
[09:12] <LinTux> I just used sudo apt-get install kde, is something missing, is that why I can't adjust the screen res?
[09:12] <joerack> thx igor
[09:12] <igor> joerack: mondo backup

[09:13] <Ruidoso_Silencio> hello. Is there a way to decompress .ace files??
[09:13] <abarbaccia> hello all - what does "parser not found for codec" mean?
[09:13] <igor> Enselic: a gimp filter to make images seems like ghosts..
