[09:41] <jrib> crazy_: what isn't clear?
[09:42] <pboyce> profanephobia: now to install windows on to other drive, is it gonna be hard to get it to work with grub ? i have xp sp2
[09:42] <BleSS> I've my doubts about owner on 'at' directories- http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/32270/ what do you think?
[09:42] <profanephobia> pboyce great but if you were also wanting to have windows you needed to install it first
[09:42] <CITguy> fubar: ok, now you need to run the following as root:
[09:42] <pboyce> crap
[09:42] <crazy_> jrib: I am new to linux, so dun know what is "chmod +x file.bin"
[09:42] <CITguy> cat /etc/passwd | mksmbpasswd > /etc/samba/smbpasswd
[09:42] <profanephobia> pboyce if you install windows (on master) then youll have to reinstall grub
[09:43] <profanephobia> so all isnt lost
[09:43] <CITguy> or you can do the following:
[09:43] <CITguy> pdbedit -a -u <your user name>
[09:43] <CITguy> (this will add your user name to the samba password database), then sudo /etc/init.d/samba restart
[09:43] <jrib> crazy_: oh, it's just a command you run in the terminal.  DO you know how to navigate to the directory where your file is located in the terminal?
[09:44] <pboyce> profanephobia: ok geuss ill do it again i have a ques for u i installed a pakage for my nvidia card, how do i use it? it was the one to see the temp and other settings

[09:50] <fubar6760> any ideas?
[09:50] <Eclipsor> the only problem is that the / partition is in an lvm volume
[09:50] <Eclipsor> and grub says the file isnt found
[09:50] <CITguy> fubar6760: you need to have the folowing line configured with your users
[09:50] <CITguy> "valid users = <list of users to give access to the share>"
[09:50] <banlieue> welcome back, banlieue

[09:51] <fubar6760> o i see it
[09:51] <ThanatosDrive> I'm trying to install Homeworld via WINE, but it's giving me errors stating that I need to change my sound to 16-bit stereo. How would I go about doing that?
[09:52] <animos1ty> I need some help installing nvidia driver
[09:52] <crazyman85> http://pastebin.com/m68a67797
[09:52] <crazyman85> can anyone take a look at that
[09:52] <crazyman85> and let me know why i cant install my rt2500?
[09:52] <badders> ThanatosDrive: all the sound related stuff can be toyed with by running "winecfg"
[09:52] <CITguy> animos1ty: http://www.albertomilone.com/nvidia_scripts1.html
[09:53] <crdlb> animos1ty, system>administration>restricted drivers manager
[09:53] <ThanatosDrive> badders: Are there parameters I need to enter?
[09:53] <profanephobia> later everyone good luck
[09:54] <bulmer> crazyman85: linux/config.h: No such file or directory <--- try to install all the required headers
[09:54] <animos1ty> thanks CITguy
[09:54] <animos1ty> i'll give it a go
[09:54] <badders> ThanatosDrive: No idea, dont even know if its possible, but youll find it there if it is
[09:54] <jrib> animos1ty: use the restricted drivers manager
[09:54] <crdlb> animos1ty, use the restricted manager unless you have an 8000 series nvidia
[09:54] <kperez> bulmer.. what package hast that one?
[09:54] <crdlb> animos1ty, and if it doesn't work, you can always use envy as a last resort
[09:55] <CITguy> the restricted drivers manager doesn't work as well as the official drivers from NVIDIA
[09:55] <crdlb> (not that it would help)
[09:55] <crdlb> CITguy, it's the same driver
[09:55] <animos1ty> crdlb: im not sure how to use that... i just installed ubuntu for the first time yesterday. im a nub
[09:55] <crdlb> animos1ty, system>administration>restricted drivers manager
[09:55] <bulmer> kperez  maybe build-essential
[09:55] <Number_6> I just installed Ubuntu on my laptop to dual-boot with windows. I'm liking it so far, but I could use a little help...
[09:56] <kperez> yea i just installed it.. ima try it again
[09:56] <kperez> i mean ive had it installed..
[09:56] <zezator74> can anyone help me !!! please contact me if you instaled CS 16 in Ubuntu !!! Thanks
[09:57] <Number_6> Specifically, I need to know how to log in as root.
[09:57] <CITguy> animos1ty: try the restricted drivers manager first to see if it solves your problem and use envy as a backup
[09:57] <CITguy> I've personally had problems with my card using the restricted drivers manager, so give it a whirl to see if it works for you.
[09:57] <ritzcracker> to do things as root
[09:57] <ritzcracker> just type sudo
[09:57] <ritzcracker> before the cmmand
[09:57] <bulmer> !root > Number_6
[09:58] <zezator74> can anyone help me !!! please contact me if you instaled CS 16 in Ubuntu !!! Thanks
[09:58] <ThanatosDrive> badders: No luck. Same error. It's quite alright, I'll google up something. Hopefully.
[09:58] <oomph_> im having a dependancy issue installing FREENX
[09:58] <Number_6> And from the desktop? I had my fill of the console fixing the xserver earlier
[09:59] <ritzcracker> zezator74: are you trying to install the sever or the actual game so you can play it
[09:59] <oomph_> i followed these instruction
[09:59] <severi> hi
[09:59] <oomph_> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeNX
[09:59] <oomph_> he following packages have unmet dependencies:
[09:59] <oomph_>   freenx: Depends: nxagent (>= 1.4.92+1.5.0) but it is not installable
[09:59] <animos1ty> thx
[10:00] <niuq> i am using gftp and filezilla, i am trying to upload files to a ftp server, the problem is the connection get stalled to often, i am not sure if that can be a problem with my ISP or with the hosting or with my ftp client
[10:00] <oomph_> anyone experienced this before?
[10:00] <unagi> how would i rename a bunch of files from 000001.tga 0000002.tga to cold.001.tga and cold.002.tga and so on
[10:00] <corpulunt> I have a question, a bash script of mine shows escape characters perfectly on an old Mandrake 9.2 box from console, on Ubuntu does not.
[10:00] <corpulunt> what could be causing this?
[10:00] <CITguy> Number_6: Ubuntu doesn't allow you to log in as root from the login screen. If you want a root GUI you'll have to switch to a virtual terminal (CTRL+ALT+Fn), log in as root, and run startx
[10:00] <Number_6> Okay, thanks
[10:00] <animos1ty> how do i exit X server and log into root???
[10:00] <badders> ThanatosDrive: Ok, i just ran winecfg myself, and at least with the alsa driver (which is what i use) there is an option for setting the default bits per sample to 16, but if thats what you tried then i have no idea
[10:00] <BleSS> I've my doubts about owner on 'at' directories- http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/32270/
[10:00] <CITguy> animos1ty: which method are you using?
[10:01] <Number_6> Is there a default password for it?
[10:01] <corpulunt> could someone help me?
[10:01] <ThanatosDrive> badders: I did change that, but I still got the error. Thanks though!
[10:01] <TheInfinity> hello ... one question - how can i change the order of mountings in beginning?
[10:01] <CITguy> Number_6: you have to set up the password for root using "sudo passwd root"
[10:01] <TheInfinity> because nfs volumes are mounted BEFORE local volumes on many pcs here
[10:01] <TheInfinity> and thats quite strange
[10:01] <Number_6> Thanks!
[10:01] <animos1ty> CITguy: i have the drivers downloaded for linux on my desktop and i read a tutorial on how to install them. neither way actually.
[10:01] <niuq> i am using gftp and filezilla, i am trying to upload files to a ftp server, the problem is the connection get stalled to often, i am not sure if that can be a problem with my ISP or with the hosting or with my ftp client
[10:02] <CITguy> animos1ty: Okay, do you mind switching to a one-on-one?
[10:02] <rlount> TheInfinity, nfs might mount first because the os might be looking for networked home and root partitions.
[10:02] <Scott__> is this support for ubuntu?
[10:02] <animos1ty> CITguy: not at all, i pmed you but you didnt respond
[10:02] <ritzcracker> Scott_: yes
[10:02] <TheInfinity> rlount: and how do i change this? :)
[10:02] <TheInfinity> home is mounted at last
[10:02] <ThanatosDrive> badders: Ahhh, I solved it. Apparently I was on OSS, which didn't work, even in 16-bit for some reason, although switching to ALSA fixed it. Odd. Thanks for all your help! I asked yesterday night and nobody could solve it.
[10:02] <zezator74> Who plays counter strike at Ubuntu ????
[10:02] <Scott__> GOOD! i think i have to reinstall.... i did something dumb
[10:02] <rlount> TheInfinity, good question =) one sec.
[10:02] <unagi> how would i rename a bunch of files from 000001.tga 0000002.tga to cold.001.tga and cold.002.tga and so on
[10:02] <dxdt> I used to play.  I don't anymore.
[10:02] <ritzcracker> zezator74: i asked you a question if you want help anserw
[10:03] <TheInfinity> and i want to mount an nfs dir in /home/foo
[10:03] <badders> ThanatosDrive: glad that worked for you
[10:03] <TheInfinity> which is impossilble if home is not mounted yes
[10:03] <zezator74> ok i will invite you i didnt see... so many people.... !!!
[10:03] <ritzcracker> zezator74:  are you trying to install the steam server or trying to okay counter strike on ubuntu. If you want to play counter strike you need to install wine
[10:03] <ritzcracker> which will allow you to run .exe on linux
[10:04] <animos1ty> CITguy: no respond?...
[10:04] <Billy> !roll
[10:04] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about roll - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[10:04] <zezator74> I have win
[10:04] <Billy> !random
[10:04] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about random - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[10:04] <CITguy> okay, I don't know how to respond in IRC

[10:04] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about links 20 - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[10:04] <zezator74> I have instaled non steam
[10:04] <ritzcracker> you have Wine installed?
[10:04] <zezator74> but there are no fonts... no letters when I start CS
[10:04] <CITguy> all i know how to do in IRC is send messages
[10:04] <CITguy> so what do I have to do?
[10:04] <zezator74> Ritz yes i have wine and instaled CS
[10:04] <zezator74> non steam
[10:05] <ritzcracker> zezator74: in wine did you install the win32 fonts
[10:05] <rlount> TheInfinity, looking briefly reveals not much, off hand I would say to re prioritize the init order in which nfs comes up. make it start later.
[10:05] <zezator74> no
[10:05] <george_> zezator74 I suggest you get wine doors (google it) ,install it, and install all the fonts that it provides :)
[10:05] <animos1ty> look at the top of your irc window and see my name blinking? its in a tab
[10:05] <zezator74> ritz how to instal???
[10:05] <ritzcracker> okay one second
[10:05] <CITguy> um, no
[10:05] <TheInfinity> rlount: i can give nfs S99 in rcS - that does not help ...
[10:05] <zezator74> ok
[10:05] <Ayabara_> anyone running ubuntu on a macbook pro ?
[10:05] <animos1ty> hmm.... im not that great with IRC either but i PMed you.
[10:06] <rlount> TheInfinity, that sucks.
[10:06] <TheInfinity> Ayabara_: here :)
[10:06] <animos1ty> do you have an aim sn?
[10:06] <preaction> Ayabara_, i had it working before, but asking "anyone" questions is not productive
[10:06] <TheInfinity> rlount: yes
[10:06] <zezator74> Does private chat works in here????
[10:06] <CITguy> yes "Xxnonconformist"
[10:06] <Sciri> Ayabara_: We've got a few Mac Pros and Macbook Pros running Ubuntu in Parallels, but not natively.
[10:06] <animos1ty> i dont think private chat works...
[10:06] <linxeh> zezator74: yes, if you are registered with nickserv
[10:06] <preaction> zezator74, yes. you must register. and it's rude to private message without asking first
[10:06] <animos1ty> maybe thats it...
[10:06] <rlount> TheInfinity, I am where you are at =) maybe someone here will have more foo than I.
[10:06] <Ayabara_> preaction: I agree. will do better :-)
[10:07] <CITguy> yeah, probably. I'm not registered with nickserv.
[10:07] <TheInfinity> anyone else who knows? :/
[10:07] <zezator74> Am I registered and where to register?
[10:07] <preaction> Ayabara_, only hangup i had installing it was the ATI drivers. i had to boot the live CD to console, apt-get install the drivers and then when i installed everything worked fine. but ymmv
[10:07] <dobey> holy crap there are a lot of people in here
[10:07] <linxeh> zezator74: /msg nickserv help
[10:07] <ritzcracker> zezator74:
[10:07] <Ayabara_> TheInfinity, Sciri , I miss my Ubuntu so I need to install it on my mac. Just wanted to know if you would recommend boot camp, vmware or parallels
[10:07] <ritzcracker> type wine control
[10:08] <ritzcracker> in command prompt
[10:08] <Ayabara_> preaction: ok
[10:08] <ritzcracker> bah

[10:08] <TheInfinity> thanks art all rlount :)
[10:08] <nanoteker> linux n00b needs help with lilo/grub, basics
[10:08] <zezator74> ritz Iknow
[10:08] <TheInfinity> Ayabara_: i have it native and in vmware
[10:08] <preaction> Ayabara_, i used boot camp to make space. you still want OSX in case of firmware updates, there's a nice thread on the forums about how to do it properly
[10:08] <oomph_> has anyone here installed Freenx on Dapper before?
[10:08] <ritzcracker> you can install the fonts through there
[10:08] <ritzcracker> brb
[10:08] <nanoteker> anyone here willing to help?
[10:08] <TheInfinity> native it works very poor on latest mac book pro
[10:08] <oomph_> having a bit of a dependancy issue with it and could use some advice
[10:08] <TheInfinity> in vmware it works excellent
[10:08] <dobey> hrmm
[10:08] <boyam> !ask | nanoteker
[10:08] <ubotu> nanoteker: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[10:09] <banlieue> lol
[10:09] <Ayabara_> preaction: ok. Ill google it.
[10:09] <banlieue> buying a macbook to run ubuntu on it? ;/
[10:09] <Sciri> Ayabara_: Feisty and Gutsy Tribe 3 both installed fine under Parallels for me; both work fine on my Mac Pro and Macbook Pro, but my Xserve had issues with Feisty coming up with X...
[10:09] <Ayabara_> banlieue: I know :-)
[10:09] <TheInfinity> you have to use latest gutsy alpha to get xorg on latest mac book pro
[10:09] <nanoteker> ok...i just installed the lilo package...and can't find where the file is
[10:09] <nanoteker> :(
[10:09] <zezator74> so that is all ritz???
[10:09] <banlieue> Ayabara_: more power to ye, though ;)
[10:09] <zezator74> wine control?
[10:10] <nanoteker> norm /etc/lilo?
[10:10] <Sciri> Ayabara_: Rephrase, my Xserve had problems supporting Feisty and X under Parallels...
[10:10] <Ayabara_> TheInfinity: Ill try out the vmware alternative first, since that one still is in beta and free :-)
[10:10] <TheInfinity> Ayabara_: if gutsy is final it will work good i think
[10:10] <nanoteker> so lilo.conf isn't there...
[10:10] <nanoteker> then i tryed looking for grub...
[10:10] <TheInfinity> bluetooth for example works instant
[10:11] <nanoteker> i see a dir...
[10:11] <zezator74> where does Pidgin puts log files?
[10:11] <chaosmachine> nanoteker I would venture to guess its in /etc somewhere.
[10:11] <Daenyth> what kernel is 7.04?
[10:11] <nanoteker> however i don't know how to launch vi to edit it
[10:12] <banlieue> zig ziggidy damdamdur
[10:12] <chaosmachine> nanoteker sudo gedit <filename>
[10:12] <boyam> nanoteker: sudo vi /path/to/file/filename
[10:12] <zezator74> register zezator74
[10:12] <Piddy> Hey, what is the Super key?
[10:12] <zezator74> ?!
[10:12] <chaosmachine> boyam except vi is annoying. D:
[10:12] <Piddy> Which key is it?
[10:12] <fsckr> !gutsy
[10:12] <ubotu> Gutsy Gibbon is the code name for the next release of Ubuntu (7.10). See https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-devel-announce/2007-April/000276.html and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/GutsyReleaseSchedule - Roadmap and specifications: https://blueprints.launchpad.net/ubuntu/gutsy - Support in #ubuntu+1
[10:12] <nanoteker> alllright....
[10:13] <boyam> chaosmachine: yea..he asked for it...hehe
[10:13] <Piddy> Anyone? Where is the Super key?
[10:13] <dxdt> Piddy: super key is the windows key on most keyboards
[10:13] <Piddy> dxdt ah thanks=D
[10:13] <xtreon_> I have a serious problem, It seams as if the firestarter firewall has not ben runnig the latest time, now it is and I can't even ping my local server :S "ping: sendmsg: Operation not permitted", What to do?
[10:14] <Daenyth> I'm trying to help my friend install fiesty, and we're having some trouble. When he tries to boot the livecd, it oopses with stuff about apic. We tried booting with the "noapic no lapic" flags, and now it oppses about agpgart

[10:14] <Daenyth> can someone help?
[10:14] <Yulquen> when installing ubuntu at the free area of a hard disk with xp on, does the installer put a boot selector at the beginning of the disk?
[10:14] <chaosmachine> Yulquen Yes, one called 'grub'
[10:14] <stuart-> i wanna experiment with other distro's. is it possible to install another distro through HD without having to burn their .iso's just like debian's no cd install?
[10:15] <Sciri> Frostshoc: On Mac OS X it's called The Dock. If there's an Ubuntu equivalent I don't know what it's called...
[10:15] <chaosmachine> Yulquen as far as I know, its entire setup is automatic in ubuntu.
[10:16] <xtreon_> Please? Firestarter is blocking everything even in my local lan, ping, ssh etc. what to do?
[10:16] <chaosmachine> stuart- I know ubuntu has a no CD install, but I dont know anything about it :p ubuntu.com has information, I belive its most detailed somewhere in documentation.
[10:16] <Frostshoc> anyone?
[10:16] <Yulquen_> when installing ubuntu at the free area of a hard disk with xp on, does the installer put a boot selector at the beginning of the disk?
[10:16] <eldkraft> I seem to have lost the colour in CLI, anyone here know how to get it back? files used to be blue and dir's in some other colour.
[10:16] <zezator74> I can't register myself ???!!!???!!!
[10:16] <zezator74> It doesn't work
[10:17] <chaosmachine> Yulquen_ yes...its called grub and its automatic.. >.>
[10:17] <Daenyth> eldkraft: alias ls="ls --color=auto"
[10:17] <Daenyth> eldkraft: alias ls="ls --color=auto"
[10:17] <xtreon_> Is it normal for firestarter to block everything, like ping, ssh etc? outgoing that is
[10:17] <zezator74> register zezator74
[10:17] <zezator74> ?register
[10:17] <blitz-red> hey, how do i make a quick launch from a shell script?
[10:18] <chaosmachine> xtreon_ Probably, your most likely going to have to add or change rules to allow those kinds of services.
[10:18] <eldkraft> thank you daenyth!
[10:18] <idefix> what exactly is the difference between installing through synaptic or executing some extracted script from the downloaded package?
[10:19] <Rayyan> anyone knows anything about tv out? how to do it? and is it possible on live cd?
[10:19] <Yulquen_> chaosmachine: ok.if i add that there is a suse installation there now (on the xp disk), with a suse bootselector, which i intend to overwrite with ubuntu, will it still cope?
[10:19] <Daenyth> eldkraft: add it to your .bashrc
[10:19] <redwullf> Howdy.
[10:19] <redwullf> /who
[10:20] <chaosmachine> Yulquen_ was suse or XP installed first? and do you know if the selector is on MBR or root?
[10:20] <SunRaycer> hiya...
[10:20] <redwullf> Can someone help me with a question about the Ubuntu LiveCD?
[10:20] <Music_Shuffle> !hi | SunRaycer redwullf
[10:20] <ubotu> SunRaycer redwullf: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[10:20] <redwullf> Thank you.
[10:20] <Music_Shuffle> ^_^
[10:20] <crazy_> using X-Chat Gnome, it auto connects to #ubuntu channel everytimes it starts, how to add more channels for auto starts
[10:20] <chaosmachine> redwullf dont ask to ask, just ask the question. ;p
[10:21] <redwullf> Fair enough. ;)
[10:21] <blitz-red> can anyone tell me how to make a quick launch item ,in the applications menu, from a shell script?
[10:21] <Yulquen_> chaosmachine: xp was there first, then i installed suse which did not suit me.not sure if it is on mbr or root.
[10:21] <xtreon_> Do I need the crappy firestarter thats blocking everything??
[10:21] <redwullf> So, I've downloaded the LiveCD and I've installed and have Ubuntu up and running via VMWare Fusion on my iMac.
[10:21] <Music_Shuffle> crazy_, XChat --> Network List, and tell me when you're there.
[10:21] <gordonjcp> xtreon_: not really
[10:21] <chaosmachine> crazy_ uh, I belive its where file should be and there should be a server list somewhere. I'm not looking at it now..so.
[10:21] <redwullf> Now it's time to turn my mother onto the power of Linux. How can I use the LiveCD I've already installed to get Ubuntu onto her PC laptop?
[10:21] <eldkraft> deanyth: done. any clue why it gave up on me in the first place?
[10:22] <xtreon_> gordonjcp, its killing me, can't understand why It would block outgoing ssh etc =/
[10:22] <chaosmachine> xtreon_ As a genral rule, firewalls block everything, its more secure. As a second genral rule they block network services. esspially ping and such, they are insecure. and thirdly, useing a firewall you dont understand is a bad idea.
[10:22] <redwullf> Do I have to burn it to a physical CD somehow? Or, can I move the image file to her laptop and launch from there, without using a physical CD? She's running WinXP.
[10:23] <stefg> !install
[10:23] <ubotu> Ubuntu can be installed in lots of ways. Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation for documentation. Problems during install? See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CommonProblemsInstall and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DapperReleaseNotes/UbiquityKnownIssues - See also !automate
[10:23] <redwullf> Looks like a node dump, eh?
[10:23] <crazy_> Music_Shuffle and chaosmachine: channel list
[10:23] <clearze4> redwullf: easiest way would be to burn it to a cd.
[10:23] <Music_Shuffle> crazy_, see on Network list where it says Ubuntu servers?
[10:23] <SunRaycer> I'm looking for CD booting help.  The problem is it won't.  I just got 7.04 desktop i386 and burned a CD.  The .iso MD5 is fine, as are all the MD5s of the files on the resulting CD.  On boot, I get the menu, and memtest86 works fine, but the CD integrity check and standard boot both fail, dropping me to an ash prompt, claiming "no tty"
[10:23] <clearze4> !split
[10:23] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about split - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[10:24] <xtreon_> chaosmachine, so you to think its a good ide to trow away firestarter?
[10:24] <Music_Shuffle> !netsplit
[10:24] <ubotu> netsplit is when two IRC servers of the same network (like Freenode) disconnect from each other, so users on one server stop seeing users on the other. If this is happening now, just relax and enjoy the show. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Netsplit
[10:24] <boyam> redwullf: burn it and boot it from  cd so it doesn't screw with windoze
[10:24] <blitz-red> its probly best to burn to an actual CD because i believe that for your best results, u should launch livecd from boot
[10:24] <redwullf> How do I take the image I have and make a bootable CD out of it.
[10:24] <chaosmachine> yulequen_ if suse was second, it is a fair possibility that it is on MBR, and since ubuntu installs grub automatically, all we can do is hope it over rights it, so I'd install it and see how it goes. if it just boots strait to windows, your going to need to try and do something about your MBR. (Cross that bridge when you get there to save you some headaches.)
[10:24] <clearze4> redwullf: Just burn it and set the cd-rom as the first boot device
[10:25] <Music_Shuffle> redwullf, burn it as in iso
[10:25] <blitz-red> ussually right click the image, and click write to cd
[10:25] <OConnor> noob question: how can i close the X server? need to do so to install my nvidia drivers
[10:25] <chaosmachine> xtreon_ I do, if you are behind a router it should provide enough protection for an average home user, if you really want more protection try and find an iptables script to fit your needs.
[10:25] <blitz-red> or extract to cd
[10:25] <Music_Shuffle> OConnor, you need to restart the xserver?
[10:25] <OConnor> no, shut it down
[10:25] <nanoteker> ok...more n00bish questions
[10:25] <blitz-red> im not sure, but the burn option may just copy the iso image to the cd, not write it
[10:25] <redwullf> I'll give it a go, thanks for the tips.
[10:25] <Music_Shuffle> redwullf, good luck
[10:25] <nanoteker> grub...where is the file i want to vi to chainload winxp from my other hdd?
[10:25] <blitz-red> its happened to me before
[10:25] <stefg> OConnor: you should use the one from the repositories
[10:26] <chaosmachine> xtreon_ or possibly a more graphical firewall thats easier to understand. (Wich i wouldnt know about. try searching freshmeat.)
[10:26] <Music_Shuffle> nanoteker, ask on
[10:26] <crazy_> Music_Shuffle: have channel listing but not server listing
[10:26] <nanoteker> is it only one file?
[10:26] <nanoteker> in /sbin?

[10:29] <nanoteker> ok!

[10:29] <chaosmachine> m0u5e the equivalent to "network places" would be smb4k I belive, run that from a terminal. its samba and its designed to share files over a windows network.
[10:29] <boyam> nanoteker, this is a busy channel..all info on one line makes it easier to follow...

[10:45] <AD7six> stefg: can you clarify what you mean by a fresh profile.
[10:45] <stefg> !root | riaal
[10:45] <univremonster> riaal:  you are correct
[10:45] <ubotu> riaal: do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth.. there is no root password. Then you will see that it is sudo that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo
[10:45] <Daenyth> !kernel
[10:45] <ubotu> kernel is the core of the Ubuntu Operating System (named 'Linux') - see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel.  You shouldn't have to compile one, but if you're convinced you do, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelCustomBuild
[10:46] <ConstyXIV> what is the python gtkglext package called?
[10:46] <zezator74> Who plays CS in here ? 1.6...
[10:46] <jajadavid> hello. i have a .img image file of a floppy. How can i burn it to a floppy?
[10:46] <Xenoie> the_giver, you would need to set up a chrooted file system for them. They will need to access the binaries which are located outside of their home directory to do anything functional
[10:46] <riaal> univremonster, stefg is that a security risk? chall I change it?
[10:46] <stefg> AD7six: run firefox -profilemanager and add a new profile. most likely one of your skins/extensions is misbehaving
[10:46] <grigora> how can i convert a real player file into an mp3 file on linux? thanks
[10:46] <pike__> jajadavid: id google for a dd example
[10:46] <the_giver> yeah.. sigh
[10:46] <zezator74> Counter Strike who plays?
[10:46] <jajadavid> pike_ sorry?
[10:47] <ConstyXIV> jajadavid: cat imagefile.img > /dev/floppy
[10:47] <stefg> riaal: you should use a good password, hat's all
[10:47] <univremonster> riaal:  I don't think it's much of a security risk, you're only 'root' in the traditional sense when you use sudo
[10:47] <jajadavid> i change dev/floppy, right?
[10:48] <Daenyth> what version of the kernel does ubuntu run? the wiki just says "The latest version of 2.6"
[10:48] <Daenyth> which version is it?
[10:48] <riaal> univremonster, so you for example have the same password for the user you are loged in to now as the sudoroot?
[10:48] <ConstyXIV> jajadavid: /dev/floppy should be your floppy drive, imagefile.img should be your image file (whatever it's called)
[10:48] <pike__> jajadavid: im not on ubuntu but i guess /dev/floppy might be a link to /dev/fd0 either would work
[10:48] <the_giver> Xenoie what kind of chroot is this?
[10:48] <stefg> !info linux-image | Daenyth
[10:48] <the_giver> is it called chroot for ssh?
[10:48] <ubotu> daenyth: Package linux-image does not exist in feisty, feisty-seveas
[10:49] <stefg> !info linux-image-generic | Daenyth
[10:49] <ubotu> daenyth: linux-image-generic: Generic Linux kernel image. In component main, is optional. Version <IP_ADDRESS>.28.1 (feisty), package size 23 kB, installed size 52 kB
[10:49] <Daenyth> ty
[10:49] <AD7six> stefg: game on. Thxs. I would have thought complete removal removed the profile files
[10:49] <mindframe> can anyone recommend a good true-hardware-based raid controller that works well in linux?
[10:49] <Xenoie> the_giver,  that is just a term. chroot is a command which will change the top level root for your shell instance.
[10:49] <jajadavid> pike_: i think i have only read acess to fd0, how can i fix that?
[10:49] <univremonster> riaal:  normally, you are just a user.  When you want to do anything as root you use Synaptec or the terminal using sudo.  There is really no way to "log in" as root and stay that way.  There are ways, but none of them are particularly recommended by any Ubuntu staff
[10:49] <zezator74> Does anyone plays Counter Strike in Ubuntu?
[10:49] <the_giver> hmm
[10:49] <ConstyXIV> what do you do to get 3d chess work in 3d?
[10:50] <jajadavid> zezator74: in cedega?
[10:50] <zezator74> jaja ... in wine...
[10:50] <m0u5e> im using pyneighborhood, anyone used it before (and can help me with it?) :X
[10:50] <univremonster> riall:  as the system admin, your password should be the same as 'root'.  But notice that "sudo" sounds much the same as "pseudo"...
[10:50] <pike__> jajadavid: maybe there is a floppy group you need to add yourself to
[10:50] <jajadavid> zezator74: does it work well?
[10:50] <riaal> univremonster, okey, It feel stupid to login whit the same password that is used for managing the system, thats all
[10:50] <pike__> jajadavid: do 'groups' command
[10:50] <x_> univremonster   thanks ... i get it ... gonna check it working on stream radio channels or not .. thanks for help :-)
[10:50] <Xenoie> the_giver, you would need to have a chroot command executed for their login as well as commands to mount the public directories where applications are located such as /bin /usr/bin /etc for config files they will need to have access to, and many other things.
[10:50] <jajadavid> pike_: think of me as a dog, tell me what to do
[10:50] <zezator74> jajadavid : I dont know how to instal win32 fonts in Wine
[10:51] <riaal> when I use netstat -A inet I get something strange: "tcp        0      0 esk-235-64:microsoft-ds abwi41.neoplus.ad:42534 SYN_RECV" anyone know what this is??
[10:51] <univremonster> x_: no problem, that's one of my favorite programs so I enjoy spreading it around
[10:51] <x_> banlieue   thanks for help .. i going to check it working or not  :)
[10:51] <erf3d> Hi everybody
[10:51] <the_giver> Xenoie sounds complicated =-/
[10:51] <the_giver> thankst ho
[10:52] <the_giver> tho*
[10:52] <chaosmachine> riaal uh, if I'm not mistaken thats a network broadcast?
[10:52] <Xenoie> the_giver,  there is a sytem called jailshell which is a replacement for bash which would do what you are talking about
[10:52] <riaal> chohmann, sounds reasonable
[10:52] <riaal> chaosmachine,  sounds reasonable
[10:52] <riaal> chaosmachine,  nothing to worry about
[10:52] <riaal> ?
[10:53] <erf3d> I am a new Ubuntu user and my /var is full whereas only 600Mo are used. Could you help me ?
[10:53] <univremonster> riaal:  here's a solution.  In terminal, type sudo passwd root
[10:53] <neverblue> erf3d, with what?
[10:53] <chaosmachine> riaal I'm not looking at it. but anything addressed to 0 is a network broadcast. so no, nothing to worry about.
[10:53] <Xenoie> you would basically set their shell to /bin/jailshell rather then bash and it will place them in a chroot where they will not be able to see past their home dir
[10:53] <neverblue> !ask | erf3d
[10:53] <ubotu> erf3d: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[10:53] <modesto> alguem do brasil aqui?

[10:54] <riaal> univremonster, that changes the root password?
[10:54] <riaal> "root" =)
[10:54] <univremonster> riaal: yep
[10:54] <riaal> univremonster, that just can't be a bad ide? To have different passwords for the normal user and the "root"?
[10:55] <erf3d> I cannot understand why my /var is full
[10:55] <univremonster> riaal:  It's kind of contrary to the basic setup of Ubuntu.  It's more of a security risk to be able to login as root than to do sudo and have the privledges for 5 min
[10:55] <cdehaan> Hello! Can anyone tell me how I can have a script in cron.monthly log all of its output?
[10:55] <Lok1> Is there an easy way to change a 64bit install to a 32bit one without wiping the HDD? Can a 32bit kernel work with 64bit binaries (if the processor is 64 bit?)
[10:56] <RichiH> !paste
[10:56] <ubotu> 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 (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[10:56] <dody> ei dark tux problema risolto per il cubo con compiz fusion
[10:56] <riaal> univremonster, thats true but different passwords for the "sudo command" and the normal login, must be a good ide?
[10:56] <dxdt> Lok1: why the change?  Program you want not working in 64 bit or something like that?
[10:56] <ThanatosDrive> Bah. '&' on the terminal requires an escape slash.
[10:56] <Xenoie> riaal: the root account can not be logged into directly so they would need your password or another user's password to get anywhere close to root access on the machine
[10:56] <xd_> how can i join to other channel?
[10:57] <ThanatosDrive> I feel so dumb using Ubuntu sometimes.
[10:57] <ThanatosDrive> xd_ Use /join
[10:57] <xd_> using x-chat for gnome
[10:57] <Walker>  /join #channel
[10:57] <grigora> anyone knows how to convert a RealPlayer file into an mp3 file?
[10:57] <RichiH> i just had a rater nasty error when doing a dist-upgrade on a release-version feisty to a current feisty. i don't have much time, but i will pastebin the backtrace along with the full isntall log
[10:57] <xd_> thx
[10:57] <neverblue> xd_, u should probably switch to using just xchat
[10:57] <univremonster> riaal:  you may want to refer to http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=515601&highlight=root+password, the comment made by Seisen
[10:57] <Lok1> yes, vmware server is having issues with the latest 64bit kernel (which i need)
[10:57] <neverblue> its much better :)
[10:57] <pike__> jajadavid: sorry i was away you still need help?
[10:57] <Negatifzeo> Hi all, I cannot for the life of me get utorrent to show up when I click the icon..... Im running utorrent in wine of course and had no problems initially, but now it just starts minimized and I cant see the window... Any help?
[10:57] <grigora> anyone?
[10:58] <riaal> Xenoie, well, this is an example. if a friend wants to use my computer, he will ask for a login and a password, I say my usual login and password and BOOM he has root access whit the sudo command, is that how its supose to be? :S
[10:58] <pike__> Negatifzeo: i have same problem. what i do is click on the gnome panel and i get a window border with no window inside then i doubleclick on the utorrent icon and it fills the window
[10:58] <ConstyXIV> can you easily get compiz-fusion in feisty?

[10:59] <neverblue> ConstyXIV, try #ubuntu-effects
[10:59] <stuart-> i just installed DSL on my 2nd hd. how do i configure grub to notice it?
[10:59] <Walker> yea.. search at ubuntuforums.org > vorian compiz fusion
[10:59] <Lok1> when I way need, I mean I need the latest kernel, 32bit is fine :)
[10:59] <nanoteker> in vi, how does one exit the "insert mode" (if i remember that's what it's called) and get to the saving and writing to file? is it esc, then :w! ?
[10:59] <RichiH> ompaul, nalioth: you might want to follow it up, i need to run
[10:59] <dxdt> nanoteker: press escape
[10:59] <riaal> univremonster, ofc. I have a good clue what Im doing, as Im use to linux (redhat) whit root acount Im a bit confued =)
[10:59] <weston> Whats a good music downloader for ubuntu??
[11:00] <ompaul> RichiH, ?
[11:00] <Music_Shuffle> weston, Frostwire.  or ktorrent, or Streamtuner or Tunapie if you would like to record streams.
[11:00] <univremonster> riaal:  I didn't mean to offend.  But if you created the second account your guest would not be able to run any sudo commands.
[11:00] <ompaul> RichiH, got it
[11:01] <riaal> univremonster, none taken =) that is true, doing it now
[11:01] <lhoerste> My iPod keeps mounting as read only. Does anyone know how to fix this?
[11:02] <madman91> lhoerste: how do you mount it
[11:02] <lhoerste> madman91: gvm
[11:02] <elYase> im installing a software but when i run ./configure it doesnt see glib-2.0, im sure it is installed, what can i do?
[11:02] <banlieue> can someone point out why a piece of text I copy in firefox is lost (is not under ctrl+v anymore) once I close firefox?
[11:02] <nanoteker> just to double check my memory...a second HDD, a ide HDD, is hd0,1?
[11:02] <banlieue> and perhaps more importantly, how I can change this behaviour
[11:03] <stefg> riaal: the ubuntu philosophy is like OSX. Discourage the continous use of a root account, and have an 'admin'-group for all users with administrator privileges
[11:03] <mattpker> dose it happen when you are using vi?
[11:03] <khelll> am working on ubuntu and i made a folder called log with permission 0666 and mongrel server keep giving accees error to write in that folder

[11:04] <boarder-winterma> i have a problem with my xserver

[11:04] <madman91> lhoerste: mount :-)
[11:04] <madman91> lhoerste: its a cli program
[11:04] <boarder-winterma> the xorg process needs 70% cpu
[11:04] <boarder-winterma> and so the system laggs
[11:04] <lhoerste> madman91: do you modprobe sbp2 then?

[11:05] <lhoerste> My iPod keeps mounting as read only with gnome-volume-manager. Does anyone know how to fix this?

[11:05] <su-hoens`rZ> anyone know why the kubuntu alt cd installer doesn't locate 3 of my 4 sata drives even though the bios and the main cd find them fine? :(
[11:06] <banlieue> i'm guessing it's because the x server clipboard is used, and is emptied upon application close
[11:06] <stuart-> how can i configure grub to detect a 2nd distro on my 2nd hd?

[11:10] <d3spis3m3> jajadavid: How big is the .img?
[11:10] <stefg> sjdurfey: lol.. /you/ have to 'sudo apt-get install 915resolution'. that was just the bot-trigger
[11:11] <riotkittie> there's like. some driver or something. that i can compile but tha proved to be a pain when i tried it earlier.  maybe i can go the ndiswrapper route :|

[11:24] <Xenoie> what type of device it is?
[11:24] <hendrixski> I tried restarting dbus, umount -a mount -a  no go
[11:24] <hendrixski> Xenoie, it's a USB flash drive
[11:24] <hendrixski> 1 gig
[11:24] <guardian> is there a way to relaunch gnome-settings-daemon ???
[11:25] <Xenoie> and you can mount it manually?
[11:25] <eldkraft> hendrix: got the same problem here. I have a USB HDdrive and it won't unmount
[11:25] <mrmonday> for someone dual booting xp and ubuntu which option do they need?
[11:25] <Xenoie> directly, not using mount -a
[11:25] <hendrixski> Xenoie, how can i do it manually?

[11:26] <hendrixski> mrmonday, guided using freespace is probably easier
[11:27] <hendrixski> Xenoie, you mean I have to find if a new sda device pops up in /dev/ and then try mount /dev/thatdevice?
[11:27] <mrmonday> thanks hendrixski
[11:27] <Xenoie> yes
[11:27] <HO1> rythmbox just doesnt cut it for me
[11:27] <hendrixski> Xenoie, I don't think I saw any new things appear in there but I can try it again
[11:27] <Pelo> HO1,  try songbird, you'll have to dl it from the site and probably compile it yourself
[11:27] <stefg> HO1: try exaile or amarok
[11:27] <Xenoie> try looking in dmesg for the last sdX device
[11:28] <HO1> songbird it is
[11:28] <bootstrap_dude> hello, I'm having a problem booting, /proc/partitions don't list the hdb1,2,3 only hdb and thus some partitions can't mount
[11:28] <aricz> Hi, I just installed without the desktop.. what's the smallest and fastest X-server ? or windowsmanager.. :) just wondering which packages to grab
[11:29] <bootstrap_dude> aricz: Fluxbox? Openbox? Enlightenment?
[11:29] <Gossamer> How do i set the mouse middle click to enter a mode where you scroll by moving the mouse up or down?

[11:29] <aricz> bootstrap_dude : thanks
[11:29] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about dmesg - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[11:29] <Xenoie> type dmesg in a terminal
[11:29] <Pelo> bootstrap_dude,  /proc/partition ? what are you playing with ?
[11:30] <bootstrap_dude> Both Gentoo and Ubuntu LiveCDs see them without any problem, fdisk -l /dev/hdb should the 1,2,3's but the're not in /dev
[11:30] <aricz> bootstrap_dude : fluxbox is the windowmanager?
[11:30] <bootstrap_dude> s/should/shows
[11:30] <Redhammer_the_Ol> hi short question: I have a long list of items in the System--> Preferences Menu, I would like to put some into a sub folder, I have managed to make the folder and drag 1 item in all the other items I am trying to move are sticking to the Preferences menu, any idea how I can change this they are the Java control icons
[11:30] <bootstrap_dude> aricz: Yes
[11:30] <hendrixski> Xenoie, that's a lot of output... I should grep that by sdX you say?
[11:30] <stefg> bootstrap_dude: ubuntu uses libata now, so it's more likely /dev/sdb
[11:31] <stefg> !uuid | bootstrap_dude
[11:31] <ubotu> bootstrap_dude: To see a list of your devices/partitions and their corresponding UUID's, run this command in a !shell:  blkid  (see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LibAtaForAtaDisks for the rationale behind the transition to UUID)
[11:31] <Xenoie> if you just plugged in it then it should be the last few lines
[11:31] <aricz> bootstrap_dude : What more do I need to get X running? I grabbed fluxbox now (15mb) ..
[11:31] <bootstrap_dude> stefg: Don't have any /dev/sd*
[11:31] <Roge> is there a got key in ubuntu for switching workspaces ?
[11:31] <Roge> hot*
[11:31] <hendrixski> Xenoie, dmesg | grep sd   is empty
[11:32] <unagi> stefg i have wifi-radar but i havent seen it connect to anythign
[11:32] <jason_> thanx again guys
[11:32] <jason_> got gnutella to work
[11:32] <Pelo> Redhammer_the_Ol, drag dropping the folder should do it , might end up opening as a folder however,  I think there is an "extended gnome menu" package somewhere you can use if that isn't enough but I donT' think you need it
[11:32] <bootstrap_dude> aricz: X11 should have been pulled in when you fist installed
[11:32] <Gossamer> How do i set the mouse middle click to enter a mode where you scroll by moving the mouse up or down?
[11:32] <hendrixski> Xenoie, oh... it's how many seconds of logs?  lol... lemme try unplugging and repluggin :-)

[11:33] <Redhammer_the_Ol> Pelo I tried dragging and all that happens is the "offending" items snap back to the top menu
[11:33] <Piddy> Does anyone know where I can get a cool skydome, and theme?
[11:33] <Xenoie> hendrixski, you can clear dmesg with dmesg -c, unplug and replugin the device and look to see if anything is logged there for it
[11:33] <bootstrap_dude> And the strangesd thing is, "$ dmesg | grep hda" and "$ dmesg | grep hdb" look axactly alike(they are two identical disks), so I'm clueless on what the problem is
[11:34] <Pelo> Redhammer_the_Ol,  I think it originaly just copies, and you have to delete the extra entry afterward, you may have to restart the pannel for the change to take effect
[11:34] <Walker> Piddy, try searching skydome @ ubuntuforums.org
[11:34] <skeet> ok i need someone to help me
[11:34] <Walker> i've seen several threads
[11:34] <aricz> bootstrap_dude : I installed without the desktop.. core system only (virtual console)
[11:34] <Redhammer_the_Ol> Pelo, no luck does nothing
[11:34] <Pelo> skeet,  what with ?
[11:34] <_Flatline> hi
[11:34] <skeet> whenever i try to start beryl i just get a black screen
[11:35] <Redhammer_the_Ol> Pelo, does not even copy only jumps back
[11:35] <bootstrap_dude> aricz: $ apt-get install xorg?
[11:35] <Eclipsor> when I boot ubuntu it hangs at Running local boot scripts :\ is there any way to get around that?
[11:35] <jason_> what's a good movie plaer
[11:35] <jason_> player*
[11:35] <Pelo> Redhammer_the_Ol,  hmm, try it this way,  select the main menu so thtat your java folder appears as an item in the right portiton of the dialog,  then move that to the preference folder int the left section
[11:35] <aricz> bootstrap_dude : ok, thanks for the help, will not bother anymore :)
[11:35] <hendrixski> Xenoie, I did dmesg -c then plugged it in and ran dmesg and it's blank
[11:35] <bootstrap_dude> jason_: mplayer? vlc? totem?
[11:35] <Kasle> do anyone know a video editing program that is easy to use (don't have to be a freeware)
[11:35] <jason_> mplayer
[11:35] <jason_> o.k.
[11:35] <jrib> Kasle: kino or pitivi
[11:35] <Xenoie> it's not seeing it then it sounds like
[11:35] <m0u5e> how do i add medibuntu into repos again?
[11:35] <Xenoie> you said it mounts if you reboot?
[11:36] <m0u5e> i forget the website -_-;
[11:36] <Redhammer_the_Ol> Pelo, does nothing
[11:36] <jrib> !medibuntu > m0u5e (see the private message from ubotu)
[11:36] <jason_> thanx
[11:36] <hendrixski> Xenoie,  yeah sounds like it.... it does mount when I reboot.. it's very strange
[11:36] <Pelo> Redhammer_the_Ol,  the menu txt files are located in  ~/.config/menu   see if you can edit one manualy to put stuff where you want it to be
[11:37] <avarner> man have you guys ever tried running civ4 through wine?
[11:37] <Redhammer_the_Ol> Pelo, thanks that is what I was looking for
[11:37] <jrib> avarner: yes, and succeeded after several headaches!
[11:37] <Xenoie> hendrixski, you could reboot and let it mount to see what it is being mounted as
[11:37] <avarner> yeah i've got it going, but it sso slow it hurts
[11:37] <bootstrap_dude> Anyone?
[11:37] <avarner> crazy crazy slow
[11:38] <jrib> !please > bootstrap_dude (see the private message from ubotu)
[11:38] <hendrixski> Xenoie, when it mounts it gets the name I gave the drive:  "NAKED"  :-p
[11:38] <Xenoie> it will still have a /dev/something device
[11:39] <Pelo> bootstrap_dude, when you boot, do you get an error msg ?
[11:39] <Xenoie> reboot, open a terminal and type mount
[11:39] <Xenoie> it will list all the file systems mounted
[11:39] <Xenoie> that way you can see what device it is using
[11:39] <ribando> does anyone knows what windows programs can u run in wine?
[11:39] <IceLink> hey
[11:39] <Pelo> ribando, there is a db of progs on the wine site    www.winehq.org
[11:39] <IceLink> how can i access a ftp-server with nautilus if possible
[11:40] <Xenoie> for instance i just plugged in a USB external drive and it was mounted. When i type mount i see it in the list as:
[11:40] <Xenoie> /dev/sdc1 on /media/disk-1 type ntfs (rw,nosuid,nodev,umask=222,utf8)
[11:40] <jrib> IceLink: file -> connect to server  or similar
[11:40] <Xenoie> it is /dev/sdc1 mounted to /media/disk-1
[11:40] <riaal> Anyone know how to change the resolution of the loginscreen? My monitor won't show the current one =/
[11:40] <JesusOnStilts> icelink most ftps are accessible through default way ftp://LOGIN:PASS@IPorADDRESS:PORT
[11:40] <IceLink> thanks you two
[11:41] <Pelo> IceLink,  you can mount your ftp server as a folder with  menu > places > network folder or server thingy  and it will then be accessible as a folder on your computer
[11:41] <tunedout> hey guys I googled how to change a file name. but I cant find anything whats the command to change a file name in the terminal
[11:41] <hendrixski> Xenoie, Ok... so when I reboot I'll look at that.. then when I know what it actually mounts at .... then when I come across this problem again I'll just try mount /dev/whever/it/mounted/last/time
[11:41] <Anlar> tunedout: mv
[11:41] <riaal> How do I change the resolution of the login screen?
[11:41] <ribando> Pelo lol...I for what I saw there, its only very very very few programs that u can run in wine :o
[11:41] <tunedout> Anlar that's not the move command ?
[11:41] <Pelo> riaal,  not sure have a look in menu > system > admn> login screen
[11:41] <jrib> !cli > tunedout (see the private message from ubotu)
[11:42] <hendrixski> Xenoie, thanks
[11:42] <Xenoie> that should work, but since it is USB it can change if you unplug it and/or plug in something else
[11:42] <ribando> Pelo it doesnt even say anything about Photoshop, at least under APPLICATIONS.or am I looking at the wrong place?
[11:42] <Pelo> ribando,  you can ask in #winehq for more info,  but there are hundreds in the db on the wine site
[11:42] <Xenoie> the /dev/name can change
[11:42] <jason_> hey huys
[11:42] <Pelo> ribando,  I guess you were looking in the wrong place
[11:42] <Xenoie> but it would be similar in any case, if it was /dev/sdX it would still have a similar dev name
[11:42] <jason_> i just id=stalled mplayer and it's crashing
[11:42] <jrib> jason_: how did you install it?
[11:42] <jason_> installed*
[11:42] <banlieue> good quit message
[11:43] <Anlar> tunedout: yes it is
[11:43] <hendrixski> Xenoie, you know what I think it is... I think this happens only after I hibernate
[11:43] <su-hoens`rZ> anyone know why the kubuntu alt cd installer doesn't locate 3 of my 4 sata drives even though the bios and the main cd find them fine? :(
[11:43] <jason_> any other suggested video players
[11:43] <jason_> apt-get
[11:43] <Pelo> jason_, crashing how ?
[11:43] <Xenoie> that is a possibility
[11:43] <Pelo> su-hoens`rZ,  try asking in #kubuntu
[11:43] <ribando> Pelo can u tell me where to look then? :s
[11:43] <Xenoie> you would have to test that theory though ;)
[11:43] <su-hoens`rZ> Pelo did :)
[11:43] <IceLink> connect to serveri n nautilus, what to fill in into "directory"?
[11:44] <hendrixski> Xenoie, it could be that the usb is just not waking up... do you know if there's a way to test that theory?
[11:44] <Xenoie> sure
[11:44] <Xenoie> do a fresh reboot or shutdown
[11:44] <su-hoens`rZ> Pelo it makes it hard to install a softraid when this doesn't work :)
[11:44] <Xenoie> start er up and plug it in
[11:44] <Xenoie> see if it mounts it
[11:44] <Pelo> su-hoens`rZ,  might have to do with the number of partitions ? I know htere is a limite of 4 primary ones, you might need to make some of them logical
[11:44] <Xenoie> it should auto mount it
[11:44] <hendrixski> Xenoie, oh... right.. lol
[11:44] <su-hoens`rZ> Pelo it doesn't find the drives... they are currently unformatted
[11:45] <hendrixski> Xenoie, so assuming that is the case... is there a way to wake it up manually if it didn't wake up from hybernate?
[11:45] <Pelo> ribando,  basicaly you expect me to do the work for you is that it ?
[11:45] <JesusOnStilts> they are raw drive su-hoens??
[11:45] <JesusOnStilts> what kind of partition is on them
[11:45] <jason_> Error opening/initializing the selected video_out (-vo) device
[11:45] <su-hoens`rZ> JesusOnStilts yeah... they don't have any partitions at all
[11:45] <jason_> that's the error i'm getting from mplayer
[11:45] <JesusOnStilts> have you looked in gparted
[11:45] <su-hoens`rZ> JesusOnStilts and the main cd and bios say they're there, just the alt cd that's having problems
[11:45] <Dj-avu> hi, is ubuntu support freevps example: openvz? how to install and how to configure? thanks for answer.
[11:45] <JesusOnStilts> to see if you can mount inthere
[11:46] <su-hoens`rZ> JesusOnStilts no
[11:46] <jrib> jason_: try 'mplayer -vo x11 /path/to/some/video/file'
[11:46] <JesusOnStilts> yo meant Live Boot style?

[11:46] <su-hoens`rZ> JesusOnStilts excuse me?
[11:46] <ribando> Pelo humn...basically I'm asking u a question because usually that's what people do in this website, and noone has ever argued about it, if u dont want to help, or can't be bothered to, you dont have to...anyway, thanks anyway
[11:46] <JesusOnStilts> you said "just the alt cd having problems"
[11:46] <jason_> hey
[11:46] <Xenoie> hendrixski,  the only think i can think of would be to reload the kernel module that is providing support for your USB chip
[11:47] <jason_> can anyone gimme a hand heree
[11:47] <su-hoens`rZ> JesusOnStilts yeah the alternate install cd.... cause i want to have softraid and you need the alt cd for that
[11:47] <jason_> plz
[11:47] <JesusOnStilts> oooh

[11:47] <jason_> Error opening/initializing the selected video_out (-vo) device
[11:47] <jason_> that's the msg
[11:47] <JesusOnStilts> i can help mount them but i am still too new to do raid
[11:47] <JesusOnStilts> haha
[11:47] <su-hoens`rZ> JesusOnStilts well it's not the raid that's the problem.... it's the fact that the disks don't show up :)
[11:47] <JesusOnStilts> i got one sata drive, it does alright
[11:47] <Xenoie> also not really guaranteed to work
[11:47] <JesusOnStilts> well have you done anything in gparted???
[11:48] <hendrixski> Xenoie, Ok.  well, I'll test out the hybernation theory, and I'll look at where it mounts
[11:48] <JesusOnStilts> or qequivilent software
[11:48] <jason_> ?
[11:48] <hendrixski> Xenoie, thanks :-)
[11:48] <Pelo> jason_, start mplayer from the menu ,  rightclick ,  properties,  or preferencers,   video,  play around with the video renderer selection
[11:48] <Xenoie> no problem
[11:48] <su-hoens`rZ> JesusOnStilts no... i've just tried to fdisk the other 3 drives to no avail
[11:48] <level1> Hi, if I set up hardware raid, why does qtparted just recognize 4 hard drives instead of one raid volume?  What do I have to do to get hardware raid
[11:48] <jason_> 'k
[11:48] <JesusOnStilts> ye su-hoens
[11:48] <JesusOnStilts> go to synpatic and search for gparted
[11:48] <JesusOnStilts> you probably already have it
[11:48] <Pelo> jason_,  x11 opengl is the one that works for me

[11:49] <drake> jason_ instal all your codecs
[11:49] <Pelo> tingle,  did you do a search in synaptic ?
[11:49] <jason_> how drake
[11:49] <jason_> ?
[11:49] <Pelo> drake,  that's not it
[11:49] <tingle> yeah but i think ther all whit a gui
[11:49] <JesusOnStilts> su-hoens
[11:49] <RickH> Okay, I have a desktop machine and a notebook machine.  They're both running 32-bit Feisty w/Gnome.  How can I get them to talk to each other over network?
[11:49] <JesusOnStilts> by default the live cd is not going to show those kinds of drives
[11:49] <norbini> could anyone please help me out... it seems that my machine thinks that when i press my control key i'm also pressing shift - and the other way around.
[11:49] <JesusOnStilts> i remember my sata problem like that
[11:49] <su-hoens`rZ> JesusOnStilts ?
[11:49] <su-hoens`rZ> JesusOnStilts ok so how do i get all 4 to be recognized?
[11:49] <JesusOnStilts> you got to get gparted then mount manually
[11:49] <JesusOnStilts> ok?
[11:50] <tingle> !nzb > tingle
[11:50] <dxdt> RickH: depends on what you want them to do.  You could do SSH SCP Samba, NFS, etc etc
[11:50] <Pelo> RickH,  I think that is a samba thing
[11:50] <su-hoens`rZ> JesusOnStilts ok how do i get gparted then?
[11:50] <JesusOnStilts> synaptic package manager
[11:50] <RickH> dxdt:  I want to share files between them, and the printer resource on one.
[11:50] <su-hoens`rZ> bleh
[11:50] <su-hoens`rZ> it's not networked yet
[11:50] <su-hoens`rZ> need to get the cables out i guess
 git: GNU Interactive Tools, a file browser/viewer and process viewer/killer. In component universe, is optional. Version 4.3.20-10 (feisty), package size 255 kB, installed size 972 kB
[11:50] <JesusOnStilts> su-hoens these are drives on a network also?
[11:50] <JesusOnStilts> haha
[11:50] <Walker> su-hoens`rZ, getdeb.net has a package for gparted
[11:50] <su-hoens`rZ> JesusOnStilts no
[11:51] <JesusOnStilts> you are confusing me =P hehe j/k
[11:51] <JesusOnStilts> brb
[11:51] <su-hoens`rZ> JesusOnStilts the computer isn't on a network at all, so i need to actually plug it in to get gparted i assume since it's not on the livecd
[11:51] <norbini> last week pressing caps-lock also turned the volume down on the sound card in X. however, that problem just went away. it's all very odd.
[11:52] <RickH> norbini:  gremlins!
[11:52] <desertc> I think there is a really problem with Ubuntu that the default Totem & gstreamer will not play copy-protection-less DVDs.  DVDs are the default format for portable video media, having Ubuntu not able to play them without installation of potentially illegal codecs is very much unacceptable for many users.
[11:52] <jason_> aye Pelo
[11:52] <RickH> Anyone know when that annoying bug about the CTRL+[numpad arrows]  aren't recognized in gedit, evolution and a few others?
[11:52] <jason_> i got that shite to work
[11:52] <jason_> thanx
[11:52] <funkmaster> anyone care to explain me this error? i'm having problems with recording sound, Bad key or directory name: "/apps/gnome-alsamixer/display_toggles/Realtek_ALC200,200P_rev_0-Mic_Select": `,' is an invalid character in key/directory names
[11:52] <JesusOnStilts> su-hoenz did you try to get it anyway?
[11:52] <Pelo> norbini, it's a new featur in linux,  doens't mater what key you press  , linux will detect what yiou are trying to do and perform the correct function
[11:52] <JesusOnStilts> i'm not sure it's only on the net but i amay be mistaken
[11:52] <RickH> funkmaster:  You can't have a "," in a file name... pretty straight-forward. :P
[11:53] <Pelo> jason_,  you may also encounter a similar problem with the audio,  same basic solution
[11:53] <su-hoens`rZ> JesusOnStilts apt-get what?
[11:53] <su-hoens`rZ> JesusOnStilts apt-get gparted?
[11:53] <JesusOnStilts> and how are you connected to IRC but not able to get file from synaptic
[11:53] <JesusOnStilts> i guesss man
[11:53] <su-hoens`rZ> cause I have 2 computers :>
[11:53] <JesusOnStilts> i use synaptic i'm not good with commands
[11:53] <funkmaster> RickH: but how do i get rid of that, just installed it through synaptic and wanted to use it
[11:53] <norbini> rickh. it's really weird/annoying. i have to use caps-lock to type any capitals - and i can't type exclaimation mark - or emoticons
[11:53] <jason_> 'k
[11:53] <jason_> thanx
[11:53] <su-hoens`rZ> i'm trying to install kubuntu on the other computer... but it's hard to when the stuff just doesn't work :(

[11:53] <jason_> mistake
[11:53] <jason_> sorrk

[11:54] <jason_> sorry\
[11:54] <RickH> funkmaster:  Someone knows...
[11:54] <RickH> funkmaster:  Just not me. :P

[11:56] <ribando> can someone help me out...I've installed wine... how do I run programs on it?I've never used wine before
[11:56] <RickH> So, how do I get my two Ubuntu machines (desktop + notebook) to share files and a printer resource?  I have them both hooked up to my router.  Both can access the shared internet through the router.  But, they don't know each other.
[11:56] <RickH> I can ping them.
[11:56] <Xenoie> ribando, you will need to run winecfg fist
[11:57] <Xenoie> first^
[11:57] <Pelo> ribando, check in the menus there should have an wine installer and a wine applications submenu
[11:57] <norbini> rickh, you could use samba
[11:57] <RickH> norbini:  Just install samba on both machines?
[11:58] <JesusOnStilts> RickH haha there is a Detect LAN Printer option
[11:58] <RickH> norbini:  BTW, "norbini" sounds cool.  Is it Italian? :P
[11:58] <JesusOnStilts> in the printer window
[11:58] <Cyber34> I'm having this annoying rebooting issue in Ubuntu, it often takes me 6-10 attempts to log on, I either keep getting punted back to the login screen
[11:58] <JesusOnStilts> in your aministative options
[11:58] <Cyber34> or the system just freezes up and forces me to reboot
[11:58] <JesusOnStilts> also a "Share Printers" option rickh
[11:58] <Pelo> Cyber34,  password issue ? login name ?  is caplock enable ?
[11:58] <RickH> JesusOnStilts:  Okay, and the file sharing?
[11:58] <ribando> Pelo Xenoie thanks
[11:58] <ndo> hey, guys! ;) euhm, i have a question. If u install fresh Ubuntu 7.04, and dubble click on mp3 file there is automatic codecs download. Video hardware autodetection is also nice. So.. Does Debian also have this feature? or is it unique for Ubuntu?:)
[11:59] <norbini> rickh, i've installed it on one machine - for filesharing between machines, i've never used printer but i think it's meant to work...
[11:59] <Cyber34> No, the login actually gets me in, it loads a bit, I see my wallpaper but then get punted back
[11:59] <LadyNikon> ndo: might wanna ask the people in #debian..
[11:59] <LadyNikon> since this is an ubuntu channel and all.
[11:59] <Pelo> ndo,  could be in debian , we don'T realy know , I think it's a ubuntu thing
[11:59] <JesusOnStilts> i nly have one PC going right now on my network
[12:00] <JesusOnStilts> sorry but i can not tell you an easier way
[12:00] <norbini> rickh, thanks. 'norbini' is just a slight modification of 'norb', my name whilst learning german at school
[12:00] <JesusOnStilts> or any way at all really
[12:00] <ndo> LadyNikon: okay, ill do it :)
[12:00] <Eclipsor> where can I find actual .deb's?
[12:00] <Eclipsor> I'm looking for wifi radar specifically
[12:00] <Cyber34> might be related, also trying to load a webpage in Firefox <IP_ADDRESS> for AMD64 with Flash freezes my system
[12:00] <JesusOnStilts> ubuntu has wifi applications liek that already
[12:00] <ndo> Pelo: hehe, im also thinking its Ubuntu thing, just intresting :P
[12:00] <JesusOnStilts> search synpaptic package manager
[12:00] <Cyber34> can't Ctrl+Alt+Backspace out of the freezes
[12:00] <Eclipsor> JesusOnStilts: no internet access
[12:01] <Eclipsor> :)
[12:01] <JesusOnStilts> obviously...
[12:01] <JesusOnStilts> =P


[16:38] <rrichmon> Hey all, I am looking for a way to write into ubuntu to have automatic keys for the zoom function. at the current time I am using compiz config manager, but it is a pain to repeat the process everyday. Does anyone know how to automate this?
