[02:37] <ere4si> bobbob1016,  in config editor there is an option to show volumes on the desktop - is that checked?
[02:37] <michael_> backgen: likely it will vomit an error message
[02:37] <backgen> michael: and how right you are...
[02:37] <bobbob1016> ere4si, I'd assume so, my other drives show up on the desktop.
[02:37] <bobbob1016> ere4si, I remember setting it a while ago.
[02:37] <dadehoog> askand: right, you've double-checked your router configuration ?
[02:37] <michael_> backgen: ok, great :)  at least you've learned a little about the command line!  here's what i suggest:
[02:38] <netdemon> how do you log into root?
[02:38] <backgen> michael: Can;t locate Gnome 2 bla bla bla...
[02:38] <macogw> hey who has *just* installed and not changed anything that has to do with synaptic or software sources or anything like that?
[02:38] <Hime> hello all
[02:38] <backgen> indeed i did!!! thanks alot
[02:38] <michael_> backgen: i'll go find one that DOES work, you sit tight, and i'll come back and walk you thru the install.  sound good?
[02:38] <mario> I don't want the Ubuntu help center to start everytime i log into ubuntu! Help, please
[02:38] <macogw> i want to know what a certain file looks like by default
[02:38] <michael_> backgen: (yeah that's the error I got too.)
[02:38] <ere4si> bobbob1016,  add the mount point to the /etc/fstab entry for the volume then
[02:38] <backgen> michael: oh my goodness thank you so much!!!
[02:38] <dadehoog> askand: what ports appear to be open (when coming from the external interface) ?
[02:38] <askand> dadehoog: yep..cant understand why it doesnt work..someone told me the isp might have blocked that port but I have tried several differen..
[02:38] <michael_> backgen: sure, i just got a ton of help from somebody else on this channel, it'll be good karma :)
[02:38] <bobbob1016> ere4si, It's already there
[02:38] <Ar3s> Help me please :'(
[02:38] <michael_> backgen: sit tight, be right back
[02:38] <Hime> anyone how i can get the wireless internet working on my laptop?
[02:38] <NeT_DeMoN> how do you log into root???
[02:39] <backgen> michael: do you think if we suggest this to some people develloping the next upgrade for Ubuntu they'll intergrate it?
[02:39] <dadehoog> askand: it's possible ...
[02:39] <askand> dadehoog: the port that appear ro be open is the port for deluge 6881
[02:39] <dadehoog> !sudo
[02:39] <ubotu> sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[02:39] <robdig> NeT_DeMoN: you don't, use sudo instead
[02:39] <NeT_DeMoN> ok
[02:39] <dadehoog> NeT_DeMoN: !sudo
[02:39] <livingdaylight> dadehoog, the fun with linux is if  you break it yoiu can fix it... although they do say if it aint' broke don't fix it, heh?
[02:39] <Ar3s> Does AnyOne have some time to spend answering a few questions  about is job in computers ...
[02:39] <mario> hime: i have an hp pavilion, if you have that laptop maybe i can help you
[02:39] <ere4si> bobbob1016,  does the volume show up when you browse to it using nautilus?
[02:39] <michael_> backgen: maybe - anything to make the desktop experience more pleasant is a good candidate for getting included :)
[02:39] <macogw> NeT_DeMoN: ubuntu locks the root account.  cant brute force a computer without knowing the user's username too if the root account is locked :)
[02:39] <Hime> mario: aww i have a acer
[02:39] <macogw> Ar3s: whats up?  this isnt really the channel for that
[02:39] <mario> I don't want the Ubuntu help center to start everytime i log into ubuntu! Help, please!
[02:40] <livingdaylight> Ar3s, is english your first language?
[02:40] <dadehoog> askand: right, and is the service on the other port runnign ?
[02:40] <countx> Muse: im still getting nothing :(
[02:40] <mario> hime:sorry and good luck
[02:40] <Ar3s> Which channel should I use ?
[02:40] <livingdaylight> macogw, he's doing market research?
[02:40] <Hime> mario: well can you tell me what you did on yours?
[02:40] <bobbob1016> ere4si, Yes, if I go to /media/HD3 manually, I can see it, add files and whatever.  It isn't on the desktop or sidebar though.
[02:40] <atoponce> Ar3s: #ubuntu-offtopic
[02:40] <macogw> Ar3s: ubuntu-offtopic
[02:40] <askand> dadehoog:  yep
[02:40] <Ar3s> ty all ^^
[02:40] <nickrud> mario, set up the desktop the way you want it to boot, then system->prefs->session, sessions option tab
[02:40] <mario> hime: it was pretty simple
[02:40] <macogw> livingdaylight: *shrug*
[02:40] <ere4si> bobbob1016,  brb
[02:40] <Ar3s> and sorry for bothering
[02:40] <mario> hime: i did not have to do anything
[02:40] <dadehoog> askand: can you run a "netstat -a" from the terminal on your ubuntu machine and post the output to pastebin ?
[02:41] <Hime> mario: oh :|
[02:41] <macogw> has anyone here just installed and not changed anything in their system > administration > software sources yet?
[02:41] <macogw> i want to know what a certain config file looks like by default
[02:41] <countx> anyone help? i cant connect to the internet or LAN or my wireless on ubuntu gutsy
[02:41] <livingdaylight> Ar3s, didn't bother me, but they're very strict about this and other matters in here.... purely business here my friend you know?
[02:41] <bim> macogw: no, but I have a fair idea of what sources.list looks like before fiddling. What's your question?
[02:41] <mario> nickrud: the ubuntu help center does not appear there to be unchecked
[02:41] <reya276> Does anyone know how to fix a user permissions on cedega, I can't install any games due to admin rights
[02:42] <nickrud> mario, like I said, set up the desktop the way you want it to start (ie, close the help center) then save the session
[02:42] <Hime> is there a program that can automatically detect wireless networks?
[02:42] <moon_> hay
[02:42] <moon_> helo
[02:42] <askand> dadehoog: http://pastebin.com/d77c2452f
[02:42] <Ar3s> Yeah I understand no problem ^^
[02:42] <macogw> bim: well that's not the file i'm wondering about ;)  it's just that when popularity contest gets turned on, it's through there.  im wondering if the /etc/popularity-contest.conf 1) exists by default and 2) has the PARTICIPATE="no" line in by default
[02:42] <bim> hime: the network manager will do that by default.
[02:42] <livingdaylight> macogw, which sources list?
[02:42] <Ar3s> Bye all
[02:42] <bim> macogw: oh, well, I fail that test.
[02:42] <ubuntu> Trying to get wireless going on an HP laptop with the Intel 4965 chipset. So far, no love
[02:43] <mario> nickrud, that's the best idea i have heard about it, THANKS a lot, i should have guessed
[02:43] <NeT_DeMoN> can any one help me with my sound driver problems????
[02:43] <bim> except that I doubt that I've changed mine ...
[02:43] <livingdaylight> macogw, lol
[02:43] <ere4si> bobbob1016,  did you  chmod 777 /media/HD3   ?
[02:43] <Fezzler> Any ever chain one 4-port router to another with the first being connected to cable modem?  My laptop will not find IP for VPN when plugged into second router
[02:43] <macogw> bim: i know there's a default config in another dir, and then /etc/popularity-contest.conf overrides it, but i dont know if that file is *created* when you check the box, or if it already exists and just agrees with the default "no"
[02:43] <livingdaylight> LOL @ /etc/popularity-contest.conf
[02:43] <bim> macocg: looks like the answers are 'yes' and 'yes'.
[02:43] <askand> dadehoog:  hrm it doesnt tell me the port is closed really..i get "I could not see your service, connection timed out"
[02:43] <dadehoog> askand: sorry, it scrolled off your buffer ... could you do "netstat -tul" for me ?
[02:44] <macogw> bim: so before checking the box it exists and says no?
[02:44] <dadehoog> askand: that should be a shorter output for pastebin
[02:44] <bim> right. I've never checked the box, and my file exists, and says no.
[02:44] <macogw> bim: thank you
[02:44] <mario> nickrud, see ya dude, greetings from colombia
[02:44] <bim> macogw: no problem. How can anyone follow a conversation in all this traffic?
[02:44] <bobbob1016> ere4si, Didn't work, I chmoded it, and no luck.
[02:45]  * NeT_DeMoN stabs sound card with a virtual knife :P
[02:45] <nickrud> mario, greets from LA :)
[02:45] <askand> dadehoog: here it is, thanks for helping! http://pastebin.com/d280cdd80
[02:45] <ere4si> bobbob1016,  sudo chmod?
[02:45] <bobbob1016> ere4si, Yes.
[02:45] <dadehoog> askand: no worries, right ... so which port is the second service supposed to be listening on ?
[02:45] <r3n0c> hey random question, are there any other built in things like "fortune"
[02:45] <biouser> I'm going to install R and use it, anyone know how to?  or where?
[02:45] <askand> dadehoog: 4444
[02:45] <r3n0c> ya know how you can type "fortune" into terminal and it outputs a random saying
[02:46] <r3n0c> are there any other hidden type things?
[02:46] <ere4si> bobbob1016,  try with sudo chmod -v   to find out why it doesn't work
[02:46] <dadehoog> askand: well, it certainly seems to be listening on port 4444 (tcp) on all interfaces ...
[02:46] <nickrud> bim, what chat client are you running? If it's pidgin, replace it with irssi or xchat. They help a lot
[02:46] <CTho> I'm trying to compile something with -static, but it complains "/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lXaw"
[02:46] <kitche> r3n0c: hmm nope fortune is a program though not built into the shell
[02:46] <bobbob1016> ere4si, I mean it isn't working as in nothing on the desktop.  The chmod was fine.
[02:46] <CTho> it works if I leave out -static
[02:46] <kayce> kind of a wierd problem, more annoying then anything.. but, every time i restart my pc, my panels seem to always rearrange the icons to completely different then how i set them..  any idea how i can stop it?
[02:46] <[Billy]> how do u find a list of ur hardware through the terminal, ie graphics card (linux noob)
[02:46] <ximpul> r3n0c: ddate ;)
[02:46] <r3n0c> lol
[02:46] <capouais> hi, noob question.  I know this is possible.  when I'm ssh'ed into a gutsy server (from a feisty desktop), how can I edit a file with gedit (for example)?  I don't know what terms to search for to figure it out on my own
[02:46] <LjL> [Billy]: lshw
[02:47] <r3n0c> are there any other things that come packaged with ubuntu 7.10 like fortune?
[02:47] <[Billy]> thanks
[02:47] <ere4si> bobbob1016,  is it listed under places?
[02:47] <dadehoog> askand: can you telnet to port 4444 from the ubuntu machine using the network interface ? eg. "telnet <IP_ADDRESS> 4444"
[02:47] <NeT_DeMoN> billy: lspci
[02:47] <kitche> capouais: you can't check out nano though unless you setup X tunneling
[02:47] <SpookyET> Why is ssh faster than SMB and FTP?
[02:47] <ximpul> [Billy]: try lspci
[02:47] <roots_> hello my friend's! (Y)
[02:47] <bobbob1016> ere4si, No.
[02:47] <LjL> NeT_DeMoN, ximpul: that just lists what's on the pci bus though. try lshw
[02:47] <NeT_DeMoN> ljl: ok
[02:47] <roots_> this is ubuntu brasil?
[02:47] <askand> dadehoog:  that gets me connected
[02:48] <LjL> !br | roots_
[02:48] <capouais> kitche: do I need to install X on the server for tunneling?
[02:48] <ubotu> roots_: Por favor use #ubuntu-br ou #ubuntu-pt para ajuda em português. Obrigado.
[02:48] <kitche> capouais: yeah
[02:48] <michael_> backgen: still looking...
[02:48] <dadehoog> dadehoog: ok ... it's looking more and more like a router/firewall issue
[02:48] <roots_> ok! thank's dude... greatz!
[02:48] <roots_> muito obrigado..
[02:48] <dadehoog> askand: what's your network / internet setup look like ?
[02:48] <livingdaylight> dadehoog, you're welcome
[02:48] <capouais> kitche: thanks, I'll do some research on tunneling
[02:48] <biouser> anyone help get me started with R statistical software in ubuntu
[02:48] <biouser> ?
[02:48] <askand> dadehoog: laptop to a wireless router with adsl
[02:48] <ximpul> LjL: oh look at that, seems like my age is getting to me ;) tx
[02:48] <backgen> michael: ok i'm looking to add the idea to the ideapool right now
[02:49] <kitche> capouais: yeha you will have to anyways iscne I don't know how to do it myself without using freenx
[02:49] <ere4si> bobbob1016,  your fstab entry looks something like  /dev/sdc /media/HD3 ext3 defaults 0 0  ?
[02:49] <LjL> ximpul: well, it's pretty ubuntu specific i think, while lspci is certainly to be found on most other distributions as well
[02:49] <dadehoog> askand: yeah ... ubuntu seems correctly configured. It looks most likely to be an issue with your router ...
[02:49] <bobbob1016> ere4si, Yes.
[02:49] <askand> dadehoog: yep : /
[02:50] <Sonja> i'm considering making the switch from winxp to ubuntu, but i need programs for these tasks: convert an avi or other video file to a normal video dvd (like Nero), also need a good equivalent for Dreamweaver with a good code view, and also an equivalent of Winamp and mIrc
[02:50] <ere4si> bobbob1016,  I'm going of this  -  http://www.smorgasbord.net/2007/06/29/how-to-install-second-hard-drive-in-ubuntu-linux/
[02:50] <dadehoog> askand: you've tried ports other than 4444 ?
[02:50] <Sonja> so basically what's the best linux equivalent of Nero, Dreamweaver, winamp and mIrc?
[02:50] <askand> dadehoog: yea..can I have ports with 5 numbers in?
[02:50] <askand> like 23412?
[02:50] <kitche> Sonja: xmms audiacous is pretty close to winamp as your going to get really
[02:50] <LjL> !equivalents > Sonja    (Sonja, see the private message from Ubotu)
[02:50] <SpookyET> is it possible to copy a file from one director to another, interrupt the process then resume?
[02:51] <dadehoog> askand: yep, as long as they're less than around 65000
[02:51] <alteregolio> amarok/ or something
[02:51] <CTho> how can i build or install a static version of libxaw?
[02:51] <NeT_DeMoN> whats the sudo command for the lshw command sudo | lshw???
[02:51] <askand> dadehoog:  ah ok...but if I would try to open another port, what would you recommend it to be? Or it doesnt matter?
[02:51] <marx2k> Is there no decent alternative to KLibido??
[02:51] <LjL> Sonja: Nero, gnomebaker or something is what's installed by default, i believe. dreamweaver, check out kompozer. winamp, well there are many players, ask ubotu about !players. mirc... aren't you on it right now? ;) x-chat is pretty full featured
[02:52] <dadehoog> askand: be selective in the port numbers you select, because 4444 is known as a likely trojan port - so ISPs may well filter traffic on some ports known to be potentially nasty
[02:52] <ere4si> SpookyET,  use "diff" in terminal
[02:52] <dadehoog> askand: use the port recommended by the server program ... otherwise 8888 should be ok ...
[02:52] <bobbob1016> ere4si, Not working.  I tried on ubuntuguide.org, and that didn't work, which is why I asked here.
[02:52] <askand> dadehoog: oh ok.. ill try
[02:52] <LjL> marx2k: pimppa?
[02:52] <marx2k> pimppa, eh? Let me search for that...
[02:53] <LjL> !info pimppa
[02:53] <ubotu> pimppa: powerful tool to loot binaries from newsgroups smartly. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.5.8-0.1 (gutsy), package size 187 kB, installed size 800 kB
[02:53] <dorwardv> i have a bluetooth network adapter, a wireless network adapter and a PCI netword adapter.  each of these adapters connect to different network with different privileges, some websites are block when using one but not on the others, is there anyway to choose which connection i would like to be active without disabling other devices?
[02:53] <KiD_ChAoS> hey guys what application opens .rar again?
[02:53] <SpookyET> ere4si: diff?
[02:53] <LjL> !rar > KiD_ChAoS    (KiD_ChAoS, see the private message from Ubotu)
[02:53] <ere4si> bobbob1016,  can you in terminal   fdisk -l   and paste the result?
[02:53] <marx2k> LjL have you tried it and like it?
[02:53] <LjL> marx2k: no, it's just the only one i can see for GNOME/GTK
[02:53] <ere4si> SpookyET,  type man diff in a terminal
[02:53] <SpookyET> diff is or comparing 2 files
[02:54] <SpookyET> I want to resume a copy
[02:54] <marx2k> oh ok hehehe (Im in KDE, but that's fine... Ill try it out. THanks!)
[02:54] <zylmak> hello, how do we change the screen resolution in ubuntu?
[02:54] <LjL> marx2k: oh. i thought you were asking for an alternative to klibido as in, a non-kde equivalent
[02:54] <askand> dadehoog: in thedirectconnect client..it wants me to fill in three ports; TCP, UDP and TLS
[02:55] <askand> dadehoog: what would tls be?
[02:55] <marx2k> LjL: Well, Im asking for a KDE or Gnome KLibido equivalent that might have the features I am looking for
[02:55] <xe4wv2> the graphics redendered on my machine is pretty poor
[02:55] <xe4wv2> I am using fiesty..
[02:55] <dadehoog> TLS is a secure TCP equivalent
[02:55] <xe4wv2> Intel 865 chipset
[02:56] <bobbob1016> ere4si, sudo fdisk -l gives me http://pastebin.ca/823030 fdisk -l gives me nothing
[02:56] <Filled-void> Hi all Im going to install Ubuntu and Windows XP on my system again the problem s I have one IDE drive and one SATA drive could anyone recommend what would be the proper way to do this? Do I need a /boot partition?
[02:56] <|_ocke> ok so i have my fglrx drivers working, but compiz says i have no composite extension, how can i fix that
[02:57] <LjL> marx2k: well there aren't that many choices anyway, "apt-cache search newsgroup binar" will list them all. nzb is qt4
[02:57] <nickrud> |_ocke, sudo aptitude install xserver-xgl, log out and back in
[02:58] <ere4si> bobbob1016,  where did you get the uuid for the volume?
[02:58] <x9kri> stupids
[02:58] <cafuego> blkid will tell you the uuid.
[02:58] <bobbob1016> ere4si, sudo vol_id -u /dev/sdc1
[02:58] <Murdoc650> im new to linux in general and I need some help
[02:58] <ere4si> k
[02:58] <bobbob1016> ere4si, sudo vol_id -u /dev/sdc gives me nothing
[02:59] <cafuego> bobbob1016: `blkid'
[02:59] <LjL> Murdoc650: ask
[02:59] <Murdoc650> just installed ubuntu 7.10 but everytime i install my graphics drivers and restart it wont boot
[02:59] <marx2k> LjL: pimppa does not start on my machine. crashes with a MySQL error :/
[02:59] <Murdoc650> it makes me reinstall everything all over again
[02:59] <nickrud> bobbob1016, ls /dev/disk-* , choose your poisong
[02:59] <ere4si> bobbob1016,  sdc is the disk - sdc1 is the partition
[03:00] <nickrud> bobbob1016, erm, that is, ls /dev/disk/by-*
[03:00] <bobbob1016> cafuego, The disk doesn't show up in the list when I do blkid
[03:00] <LjL> Murdoc650, how are you trying to install your graphics drivers?
[03:00] <bobbob1016> ere4si, I know sdc vs sdc1, sdc doesn't give me a UUID
[03:01] <ere4si> bobbob1016,  just saying you want to mount partitions not disks
[03:01] <LjL> Murdoc650: which card do you have and which packages did you attempt installing from synaptic?
[03:01] <cafuego> bobbob1016: Correct.
[03:01] <nerbs> i'm having trouble installing ubuntu 7.10 - the installer gets to where it's copying files (with the percent bar) and then it suddenly disappears off the screen without an error message
[03:01] <marx2k> heh nzb seems REALLY light
[03:01] <marx2k> It seems like klibido is the best of them
[03:01] <bobbob1016> ere4si, I know, I am mounting sdc1, not sdc.  I said sdc didn't give me a result in the vol_id, sdc1 did.  I wasn't sure what you were asking.
[03:02] <ere4si> k
[03:02] <nerbs> like it just quits copying.  it has happened anywhere from 30% to 90%
[03:02] <nickrud> nerbs, have you run the disk check routine in the start menu?
[03:03] <ere4si> bobbob1016,  does ls /media/HD3 give a result?
[03:03] <backgen> michael: alright just added the idea to the idea pool forum...i hope it gets some support and we might just see it in heron!
[03:03] <nerbs> yeah.  it says it's okay.  i've tried re-burning it and using different media.  i checked the md5 sum of the iso matches the website.
[03:03] <LjL> Murdoc650, please speak in the channel... i might not be able to help, but other people might. so you're saying that you install the driver for your nvidia 7900GTX card from Synaptic, but when you reboot, you don't see a screen? One thing: why from Synaptic? shouldn't you be using the Restricted Drivers Manager?
[03:03] <michael_> backgen: great
[03:03] <bobbob1016> ere4si, Yes.  The drive mounts fine.  I can't get it to show on the desktop.
[03:04] <michael_> backgen: i spent 15 minutes tailoring a  script that turned out didn't work either...
[03:04] <michael_> still looking.
[03:04] <nickrud> nerbs, you might try the alternate cd, it seems to install on more hardware (I do hope that's not the one you're using :)
[03:04] <Murdoc650> as I said I'm new to linux in general
[03:04] <Hime> hello
[03:04] <Hime> i had one more question
[03:04] <bobbob1016> ere4si, I think it isn't showing up as a drive to Ubuntu, do you know why that would happen?
[03:04] <ere4si> bobbob1016,  if it mounted fine it would show in places
[03:04] <theNewMe> hi all anyone know a current source for w32codec ?
[03:05] <LjL> Murdoc650: i'm trying to understand what's going on. as far as i know, you should be prompted automatically by the Restricted Manager to install drivers, without a need to use Synaptic
[03:05] <LjL> !medibuntu > theNewMe    (theNewMe, see the private message from Ubotu)
[03:05] <ere4si> bobbob1016,  what is the free space in /media/HD3?
[03:05] <bobbob1016> ere4si, I mean it mounted fine as in I can see it, and read/write it, I just can't see it on the desktop or anything.
[03:05] <ogre> i need to kill bonobo-activation-server how would i go about doing that?
[03:05] <nerbs> nickrud, does the alternate cd install everything the normal cd installs?
[03:05] <friedtofu> help with the application title bar  --- i enabled emerald theme - and when it enters, the Title is really small font - after using alt + ctrl + backspace, it becomes larger - img here http://i94.photobucket.com/albums/l105/reachthroughmist/image.png
[03:05] <LjL> nerbs: yes
[03:05] <ere4si> bobbob1016,  you could be just writing to a file in ubuntu
[03:05] <nickrud> nerbs, yes, it just doesn't have a live cd mode
[03:05] <Hime> how can i partition my haddrive so that half has ubuntu and half windows? and then choose at boot screen which i want to run
[03:05] <Murdoc650> it does if I try and change something with my desktop, but other then that it doesn't
[03:06] <LjL> !dualboot > Hime    (Hime, see the private message from Ubotu)
[03:06] <nerbs> thanks, i'll give it a try
[03:06] <bobbob1016> ere4si, The freespace is what it should be, it is a 500gig drive, and it is 435, my main drive has 3gig left, so I know this is the new drive.
[03:06] <backgen> michael: you know what i think we should give up for now
[03:06] <Hime> !dualboot
[03:06] <ubotu> Dual boot instructions: x86/AMD64: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WindowsDualBootHowTo - MACs: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MacBookPro https://wiki.ubuntu.com/YabootConfigurationForMacintoshPowerPCsDualBoot
[03:06] <LjL> Murdoc650: and if you just don't touch anything at all... what's wrong with the driver you get by default?
[03:06] <michael_> backgen: no we should not!  i just found "drapes", a Gnome progra mthat replaces the wallpaper controller but lets you rotate wallpaper.
[03:06] <backgen> michael: hopefully, with any luck, the idea will be taken in and will be in the next upgrade!!
[03:06] <Hime> LjL: thanks :)
[03:07] <michael_> and best yet, it's installed with a single command.
[03:07] <backgen> michael: oh ho!!! sounds promising...is it a download or scripting again?
[03:07] <ubuntu> Trying to dual boot. Installer insists on using the entire HD (VISTA). How can I change that?
[03:07] <keith80403> How many CD's does the 7.10 release use?  Is there a way to download all the ISO's for a complete 7.10 release so that a network is not needed?
[03:07] <Murdoc650> nothing anymore, but when I first intstalled it the screen was offset
[03:07] <ere4si> bobbob1016,  ok - it mounts - I'm a long way away and can't see properly from here :)
[03:07] <ogre> keith80403,  it just uses 1
[03:07] <michael_> give me another minute to verify, and i'll let you know.  it's a one line installation using a program called "apt-get" which Gnome uses to suck down and install packages for you.
[03:07] <Murdoc650> The problem really isn't drivers at this point
[03:08] <csc`> Question
[03:08] <csc`> Does ndiswrapper use wlan0 as the device name by default in ubuntu?
[03:08] <LjL> Murdoc650: if it's a CRT screen, then you should simply adjust the controls
[03:08] <t0ny> .
[03:08] <keith80403> ogre, So, one CD to get a basic system, and everything not on the install CD has to be downloaded, right?
[03:08] <ere4si> bobbob1016,  can you post your fstab pls
[03:08] <ere4si> *paste
[03:08] <Murdoc650> the big problem is that when I turn off my comp and reboot it wont boot from disk and so it goes to the CD and then reinstalls Ubuntu
[03:09] <LjL> Murdoc650... even if you remove the CD?
[03:09] <DG19075> keith80403, there is also a DVD image of Ubuntu...
[03:09] <ogre> keith80403,  well its the complete system seperate packages can be downloaded as you need them
[03:09] <Murdoc650> yes
[03:09] <nickrud> keith80403, there's a dvd release has most stuff http://torrent.ubuntu.com/releases/gutsy/release/dvd/
[03:09] <michael_> backgen: it works!  hooray!
[03:09] <LjL> Murdoc650: well, if it removes the CD, it can't go to the CD. so what happens exactly if you remove the CD and then reboot?
[03:09] <backgen> michael: MARVELOUS!!
[03:09] <keith80403> ogre, DG19075, nickrud, OK thanks for the info, guys.
[03:09] <csc`> =S
[03:09] <csc`> no answer?
[03:09] <nickrud> keith80403, but be aware, a lot of packages have been updated, you'll still need a net to be up to date
[03:10] <backgen> michael: ok i've found drapes, downloaded and extracted it...what next meistro?
[03:10] <Murdoc650> nothing. it will stay at my preboot screen asking me to put in the CD
[03:10] <bobbob1016> ere4si, http://pastebin.ca/823037 I've tried 0 0 and 0 2 and 0 1, none worked.
[03:10] <keith80403> nickrud, Got it - thanks.
[03:10] <osxdude> see yalls
[03:10] <Murdoc650> I've set my boot priority to Hard Disk but it doesn't read anything on it
[03:10] <robdig> csc`: what is your question?
[03:10] <osxdude> i'mma go now
[03:10] <osxdude> awaty
 Does ndiswrapper use wlan0 as the device name by default in ubuntu?
[03:10] <ogre> nautilus is crshed on me i need to kill bonobo-activation-server how do i do that via terminal?
[03:11] <michael_> backgen: hah, you took the long route!  do this instead:
[03:11] <michael_> click on Applications -> Add/Remove.
[03:11] <csc`> ogre: kill -9
[03:11] <osxdude> csc`. No.
[03:11] <michael_> In the top right corner, choose Show: All available Applications.
[03:11] <mafiaboy> exit
[03:11] <nickrud> ogre, killall bonobo-etc
[03:11] <csc`> that works too
[03:11] <michael_> backgen: then type "drapes" into the search box.  it should come up as the only hit.
[03:11] <michael_> backgen: good so far?
[03:11] <nickrud> one less step, no pid to discover
[03:11] <csc`> osxdude: that to me for the question i asked?
[03:11] <ogre> nickrud,  tyvm
[03:11] <osxdude> csc`, if it's internal it'll use eth0 or something
[03:12] <LjL> Murdoc650, this might be a stupid question, but you *did* install Ubuntu? when you said "and then reinstalls Ubuntu"... you're aware that just putting the CD in the drive and then waiting until a desktop comes up does *not* mean Ubuntu is installed, right?
[03:12] <osxdude> yes csc`
[03:12] <backgen> fantastic i'll do that just now
[03:12] <csc`> osxdude: so when ndiswrapper is installed, an alias isnt created to always make it wlan0, correct?
[03:12] <backgen> michael: i'm in love with the add/remove thing in ubuntu
[03:12] <Murdoc650> yeah, I went through the install,
[03:12] <ogre> nickrud,  no luck
[03:12] <cr4> how do I mount nfs share folders ? I'm doing this but it doesn't works "<IP_ADDRESS>:/home/p47 /media/lp47 nfs rw,hard,intr	0	0"
[03:12] <ere4si> bobbob1016,  your cd is /dev/sdc - your new disk will have to be /dev/sdd
[03:12] <cr4> why ?
[03:12] <osxdude> I don't believe so, csc`
[03:13] <michael_> backgen: yeah, tell me about it.  it's the frontend to the command line "apt-get" which is FINALLY an easy-to-use linux installer :)
[03:13] <osxdude> Ok I gtg....see yalls
[03:13] <osxdude> :P
[03:13] <nickrud> ogre, you didnt't type bonobo-etc , right :)
[03:13] <csc`> osxdude: well that just overcomplicates things :|
[03:13] <bobbob1016> ere4si, How would I change it to /dev/sdd?
[03:13] <evan_> i have some applications that just repeatedly crash
[03:13] <backgen> michael: finally?? which version of Ubuntu did it come in?
[03:13] <ere4si> bobbob1016, I don't know - let me check
[03:13] <ghostcube> hi anyone frim with nvidia
[03:13] <ghostcube> ?
[03:13] <nickrud> ogre, ogre if it's still running after killall  bonobo-activation-server , try killall -15
[03:13] <ghostcube> got gf 5700 le and a question
[03:14] <michael_> backgen: i've been playing with linux for several years; before apt-get, "rpm" (red hat package manager) was popular.  but it had issues.
[03:14] <ghostcube> is the one working with 100xx dribver or only by 9xxx
[03:14] <ogre> nickrud, killall bonobo-etc
[03:14] <michael_> and then there was some other one starting with a "y" which i've tried to forget, i can't remember.  anyway, apt-get Just Works, which is great!
[03:14] <nickrud> ogre, the etc was a placeholder for the full name, I didn't want to type the whole thing out ;
[03:14] <Ose> Is there a way to mass delete files?
[03:15] <ogre> ahh thanks
[03:15] <LjL> Murdoc650: it's really time to go to bed for me, and we'd need a pretty lengthy troubleshooting session i fear, as this seems a weird problem. remember though the question you really want to ask is: i have installed Ubuntu, but on rebooting, the BIOS refuses to boot from the HD, and just goes on trying to boot from CD. <- better way to phrase your question
[03:15] <nickrud> Ose, rm *
[03:15] <backgen> michael: hmm except in this case! the installation and everthing went fine but then i go to appplications - Graphics - Drapes and click on it nothing happens!
[03:15] <LjL> which you luck, you'll find me here again tomorrow
[03:15] <bobbob1016> ere4si, I think it might be that I have sata, is it possible the fstab is outdated?
[03:15] <Murdoc650> ok, thanks LjL
[03:15] <michael_> backgen: i thoguth so too at first - but is there a little screen icon near the top right corner of your monitor?
[03:15] <michael_> next to your clock?
[03:15] <Ose> Nickrud: So to remove all text files in a directory (And directories within it) rm /home/ose/*.txt?
[03:15] <backgen> michael: no wait...erase what i just said it does!!!
[03:15] <backgen> michael: haha yeh i just found it
[03:16] <|_ocke> ok, so i have a ati radeon xpress 200, i've installed fglrx, and done all sorts of stuff to my xorg.conf following help on the web, and when i run compiz.real i get "compiz.real (core) - Fatal: GLX_EXT_texture_from_pixmap is missing", but glxinfo | grep "GLX_EXT_texture_from_pixmap" shows it to be there
[03:16] <michael_> backgen: great!  now right click it and choose Preferences, and tell it to start every time, and tell it where to find your files, and yo'ure set!
[03:16] <|_ocke> any ideas?
[03:16] <ader10> I logged in and all of my gnome menu bar applets will not load. Is this common?
[03:16] <nickrud> Ose, that would get files, but not directories ending in *.txt . To get any dir, you would do rm -r *.txt  (-r means recursive)
[03:16] <backgen> michael: hmm that's what i'm doing but the darn thing won't load my pictures...is it working for you?
[03:17] <Ose> Nickrud: I want to keep the directories. It's the files within the directories I want to remove.
[03:17] <bobbob1016> ere4si, I thought sdc1 was different than scd0 and scd1
[03:17] <ader10> The error returned was "The panel encountered a problem while loading "OAFIID:GNOME_MixerApplet". Do you want to delete the applet from your configuration?
[03:17] <ghostcube> |_ocke: #compiz-fusion
[03:17] <dadehoog> askand/askan1: any luck ?
[03:17] <|_ocke> k
[03:17] <ere4si> bobbob1016, just saw that
[03:17] <nickrud> |_ocke, i run that chip (crap) , how did you install fglrx ?
[03:17] <michael_> backgen: hm, not yet, though i don't have any pictures of my own.  gimme a sec.
[03:17] <askan1> dadehoog: yes! it is working now! dont know why really..:)
[03:17] <backgen> michael: hmm it's working for one picture...but why not for the rest?
[03:18] <dadehoog> askan1: which port did you end up using ?
[03:18] <michael_> backgen: like, it only displays one picture, and when you click the Drapes icon it doesn't change?
[03:18] <ere4si> bobbob1016,  add to fstab line -   utf8,umask=007,gid=46
[03:18] <backgen> no in the drapes thing when i click on add, it simply won't add my pictures into the little window...
[03:18] <RioCunliffe> Hi, i hveing a huge problem, i accidently stoped my user from being admin (its my only user) is there a way i can change it back (as sudo wont let me)
[03:18] <backgen> do they need to be JPEG?
[03:18] <askan1> dadehoog: 8888 seemed to do the trick
[03:19] <larson9999> the office is great
[03:19] <ader10> I logged in and all of my gnome menu bar applets will not load. How do I fix it?
[03:19] <dadehoog> askan1: yeah, it sounds as though 4444 was being blocked by your ISP ... 8888 is often used for proxies and webservers, so it's likely to be allowed.
[03:19] <Tore676> anyone here own a blackjack2?
[03:19] <dadehoog> Glad it's fixed.
[03:19] <askan1> dadehoog: thankyou :)
[03:19] <dadehoog> askan1: no worries
[03:19] <backgen> michael: i think thats the problem...they may need to be Jpegs...do you know how to convert pictures into JPG format?
[03:20] <michael_> backgen: not on Ubuntu yet, no
[03:20] <|_ocke> nickrud, i just did sudo apt-get install xserver-xorg-fglrx or whatever it was
[03:20] <michael_> backgen: i can't even get jpegs to work. did you just point Drapes to your pictures folder, and then click on Drapes and it worked?
[03:20] <wy> I want to unintall package A, and I remember when I installed it, I also installed lots of packages that A depends on. So now I want to remove them because they might not be needed by other pacakges. Is there a way to uninstall those packages together with A?
[03:20] <RioCunliffe> backgen: open them up with sothing like gimp, then save as jpeg
[03:20] <|_ocke> in fact, the restricted manager installed it
[03:20] <backgen> michael: hahaha this is so silly!
[03:21] <nickrud> |_ocke, then you logged out, and fglrinfo said you were running ati drivers, not mesa?
[03:21] <michael_> backgen: you'll find that a lot in Linux is...
[03:21] <michael_> :)
[03:21] <|_ocke> nickrud, yeah
[03:21] <backgen> michael: all the images are JPEG's but since i renamed them they lost the .jpg at the end...
[03:21] <|_ocke> fglrx-info shows it
[03:21] <countx> how can i increase the size of my ubuntu partion, im out of space on the partition i installed ubuntu to and weird stuff is happening
[03:21] <backgen> michael: all i had to do was rename them to add the .jpg and it's working fine now
[03:21] <michael_> backgen: hah!  good for you.
[03:21] <nickrud> |_ocke, then all you have to do is install xserver-xgl , and log back out and in. The ubuntu fglrx doesn't have aiglx, so you have to run that special server
[03:21] <speeves> wy: you could try something like : apt-cache showpkg links
[03:22] <d|v> anybody know what changed in the kernel from 2.6.22-14-generic to 2.6.20-16 with the latest kernel speed stepping is disabled with centrino dotham processors
[03:22] <backgen> michael: well my quest is done....thank you so much for all your help michael
[03:22] <michael_> backgen: by the way, did you "Add" them via the main preferences tab, or did you choose "Monitor this folder" on the second prefercenees tab?
[03:22] <RioCunliffe> Hi, im having a huge problem, i accidently stopped my user from being admin (its my only user) is there a way i can change it back (as sudo wont let me)
[03:22] <DG19075> got drapes working here too..awesome!!!!
[03:22] <michael_> backgen: you're very welcome, glad to help!
[03:22] <nickrud> |_ocke, then install compizconfig-settings-manager  and  emerald and you're good to go
[03:22] <backgen> michael: are you a programmer or something?
[03:22] <wy> speeves:  Can't this be automated?
[03:22] <bobbob1016> ere4si, It says wrong FS type, although it is ext3 in gparted
[03:22] <backgen> michael: i added via the main one
[03:22] <michael_> backgen: how'd you guess ;)
[03:23] <|_ocke> i have to run xgl too? oh, all these pages were saying that i shouldnt have to install xgl and that if i did it would negate the benefits of using fglrx
[03:23] <backgen> michael: hahaha, do you code exclusively for linux or mac and windows too?
[03:23] <FullMon-T> Anybody know what dwhelper is?
[03:23] <|_ocke> is that way offbase?
[03:23] <nickrud> |_ocke, get rid of all those extra settings in xorg.conf, the glx , composite , overlay stuff
[03:23] <michael_> backgen: i worked for Google a couple jobs back, which you'd think would make me better at Linux... but at my last job it was Windows, so my linux is a little rusty.
[03:23] <michael_> I haven't done any Mac, though.
[03:23] <|_ocke> get rid of glx?
[03:23] <|_ocke> k
[03:23] <Tore676> can anyone get the blackjack2 modem to work with a laptop
[03:23] <nickrud> |_ocke, ubuntu runs 8.37 , I bet you were reading 8.42 or 8.43 driver instructions
[03:23] <ere4si> bobbob1016,  what says it is wrong file system type?
[03:24] <|_ocke> yeah i have 8.42
[03:24] <|_ocke> or something
[03:24] <|_ocke> or maybe i dont
[03:24] <nickrud> |_ocke, then you didn't install it from ubuntu
[03:24] <|_ocke> i did install through ubuntu
[03:24] <d|v> something in the latest kernel killed stepping with the intel centrino dotham processors
[03:24] <bobbob1016> ere4si, When I mount the drive.
[03:24] <d|v> anybody know what was changed
[03:24] <backgen> michael: Google?! wow, that's impressive!
[03:24] <crdlb> fglrx 8.42 is not in the repos
[03:24] <nickrud> |_ocke, fglrxinfo will tell you for certain
[03:24] <michael_> backgen: thank you! :)
[03:24] <ere4si> bobbob1016,  in fstab cal it ext2 and see if that works
[03:24] <michael_> backgen: what do you do?
[03:25] <|_ocke> nickrud, it doesnt tell me a version
[03:25] <RioCunliffe> Hi, im having a huge problem, i accidently stopped my user from being admin (its my only user) is there a way i can change it back (as sudo wont let me)
[03:25] <backgen> michael: ah i'm a measly student at the moment
[03:25] <speeves> wy: there probably is, but I don't know it off the top of my head
[03:25] <|_ocke> k now xgl will be started automatically on next login apparently
[03:25] <nickrud> |_ocke, I get OpenGL renderer string: ATI Radeon Xpress Series, OpenGL version string: 2.0.6473 (8.37.6)
[03:25] <wers> wow. kernel upgrade :)
[03:25] <tritium> backgen, michael_: can you please stay on topic?  You can /query or /j #ubuntu-offtopic to continue
[03:26] <michael_> tritium: good point, thanks for the reprimand!
[03:26] <michael_> backgen: it's been lovely playing with you.  have a nice night :)
[03:26] <backgen> tritium: alright my apologises
[03:26] <tritium> michael_: no, it's a kind reminder. Thanks!  :)
[03:26] <tritium> no worries, backgen
[03:26] <slliness> anyone here know how to clear a disc on module?
[03:26] <michael_> tritium: yep, no problem!
[03:26] <backgen> michael: same to you micheal
[03:26] <|_ocke> oh lemme see
[03:26] <d|v> Rio
[03:26] <d|v> try sudo su
[03:26] <d|v> to give yourself root access
[03:26] <bobbob1016> ere4si, "wrong fs type, bad superblock" when I do mount -a, which is how I understand it is done on boot, but mount /dev/sdc1 /media/HD3 works fine, nothing on the desktop though
[03:26]  * nickrud notices no one messes with unstable hydrogen
[03:27] <d|v> then change the user settings
[03:27] <Filled-void> I need to install WIndows XP and Ubuntu on an IDE and SATA drive respectively. Whats the right way to do this. Cause I cant get them to work both with the drives correctly without going into the bios and modifying the menu.lst each boot
[03:27] <|_ocke> now it does
[03:27]  * michael_ messes with deuterium, if that counts for anything
[03:27] <|_ocke> 8.37.6
[03:27] <backgen> hey has anyone ever had trouble with You Tube videos? suddenly they only play for 5 seconds and with no sound and then they stop...
[03:27] <|_ocke> should i get rid of glx and dri in xorg.conf?
[03:27] <RioCunliffe> d|v: i have i get no response
[03:28] <Ose> nickrud: I get "No such file or directory" when I try to use the asterisk in removing files.
[03:28] <ere4si> bobbob1016,  try   mount -afv
[03:28] <|_ocke> so i just swapped a celeron 420 1.6ghz 64bit with 512MB DDR2 and onboard intel 950 for a 3.33ghz celeron D with 512 DDR and onboard radeon xpress 200
[03:29] <nickrud> |_ocke, yes; the simplest way to fix that would be sudo dpkg-reconfigure -pcritical xserver-xorg , then edit to add the fglrx driver back
[03:29] <|_ocke> did i just screw myself?
[03:29] <clever> how would i go about finding the difference between linux-image-2.6.20-16-386 and linux-image-2.6.22-14-386 within certain files?
[03:29] <|_ocke> the 1.6 ran REALLY smooth
[03:29] <cr4> how can I mount NFS on fstab ?
[03:29] <|_ocke> but i saw the 3.33 on this and though OOH I NEED IT GAAHHHH
[03:29] <cr4> how can I mount NFS on fstab ?
[03:29] <FullMon-T> Anybody know what dwhelper is?
[03:29] <RioCunliffe> Hi, im having a huge problem, i accidently stopped my user from being admin (its my only user) is there a way i can change it back (as sudo wont let me)
[03:29] <nickrud> Ose, rm *.txt works , it's a standard file glob
[03:30] <bazhang> !nfs | cr4
[03:30] <ubotu> cr4: nfs is the network file system. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SettingUpNFSHowTo for information on installing and configuring NFS.
[03:30] <wy> speeves:  got it! it's apt-get autoremove
[03:30] <clever> RioCunliffe: boot into the recovery console and you can easily readd it(if you know the cmd to do it over cli)
[03:30] <tritium> RioCunliffe: boot into single-user (recovery) mode
[03:30] <nickrud> |_ocke, from my perspective, it was a definite drop in video (I run the 200)
[03:30] <|_ocke> well the video i know
[03:30] <|_ocke> im having doubts because of the bs im having to go through to get compiz working on this thing
[03:30] <RioCunliffe> tritium: Sure, but how?
[03:31] <FullMon-T> Anybody know what dwhelper is, and why it keeps popping up on my desktop?
[03:31] <|_ocke> but thats not really my main concern
[03:31] <Ose> nickrud: I'm typing  rm /home/ose/testdisk-6.8/linux/*.txt  and it gives the error. And yes, I can CD to that directory. There are no texts directly there though, just in folders beneath it.
[03:31] <|_ocke> did i get screwed on the rest
[03:31] <cr4> bazhang, yes, I can mount manualy, but whan I try to mount automatically with fstab it doesn't mount the shared folder
[03:31] <cr4> bazhang, I have this "<IP_ADDRESS>:/home/p47 /media/lp47 nfs rw,hard,intr	0	0"
[03:31] <tritium> RioCunliffe: at boot, hit Esc to get to the grub menu, then select it
[03:31] <|_ocke> should i have took the ghz hit to get a 64bit celeron 420 instead of D, and DDR2 instead of DDR
[03:31] <|_ocke> that one had a 800Mhz FSB, this one is 533
[03:31] <bazhang> cr4: that was the limit of my knowledge :}
[03:32] <|_ocke> is FSB more important than GHz?
[03:32] <crazyrk> no
[03:32] <RioCunliffe> tritium, ive tried this, it dosent seem to work (ie grub menu dosent come up) when *exactly* do i press esc
[03:32] <|_ocke> this one is literally twice the processor speed
[03:32] <|_ocke> i hope that was the right choice
[03:32] <|_ocke> i really liked the RAM performance on that one though
[03:32] <|_ocke> it was silky smooth
[03:32] <tritium> RioCunliffe: right after the machine posts
[03:32] <crazyrk> fsb = 400, ghz = 3  is better than fsb=533, ghz = 2
[03:32] <nickrud> 0se -r is for directories, not recursing down thru the tree, removing files ending in txt
[03:32] <cr4> bazhang, :O couls you help me ?
[03:33] <|_ocke> i never saw a slight stutter the whole time i had it
[03:33] <|_ocke> 2 days
[03:33] <tritium> -2 days?  Wow, negative time...
[03:33] <RioCunliffe> tritium: What as it says "Starting up"??
[03:33] <|_ocke> i paid $50 for the 1.6, and I paid $100 for this 3.3
[03:33] <|_ocke> nono 2 days
[03:33] <root> hi
[03:33] <|_ocke> i gotta restart
[03:33] <nickrud> |_ocke, not sure, I'm not hardware
[03:34] <|_ocke> haha you should really make a user root
[03:34] <Ose> nickrud: I tried rm -r /home/ose/testdisk-6.8/linux/*.txt and still doesn't find a file or directory.
[03:34] <|_ocke> brb
[03:34] <tritium> |_ocke: no, he should not
[03:34] <bobbob1016> ere4si, That doesn't work, it said not mounted the first time, then the second it said mounted, but nothing is in that folder
[03:34] <nickrud> Ose, if the dir is text.txt for example, it would remove that dir and any dirs under it
[03:34] <tritium> RioCunliffe: depends on what your machine displays at boot
[03:34] <ere4si> bobbob1016, this link shows how to recover the superblock - http://edseek.com/archives/2004/02/25/ext3-filesystem-bad-superblock-recovery/
[03:34] <|_ocke> alriiiiiight
[03:34] <|_ocke> I have compiz fusion!
[03:35] <tritium> RioCunliffe: there really should be something that tells you to hit Esc to get to grub menu
[03:35] <|_ocke> and its pretty darn smooth too
[03:35] <Ose> nickrud: Ah, well I want it to remove any texts in the directories (Which aren't named that, but there are like.. Hundreds of directories all under /linux/ How would that be done?
[03:35] <tritium> !enter |_ocke
[03:35] <ubotu> _ocke: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[03:35] <|_ocke> i need to push it to see if its better than the last one
[03:35] <RioCunliffe> tritium: cheers for your help, im going to look the grub menu up further on google :) cya
[03:35] <nickrud> Ose, find . -iname *.txt -exec rm {} \; will recurse down thru dirs, removing files ending in txt
[03:36] <nickrud> Ose, or Txt , the iname makes it case insensitive

[03:40] <ronnie> that is a textmode software

[03:41] <Ose> nickrud: Haha. Well, this will do. I had the GUI deleting them earlier.. After 6 hours it wasn't done. When I stopped it nothing was removed.. Figured terminal would be faster. I'll just let this go all night, thanks.

[03:43] <t2> hello :)
[03:43] <bazhang> hi t2
[03:43] <huey> i have a question, what is the difference between linux alternate and linux live?
[03:43] <wols_> bobbob1016: you cannot replace /dev/zero with anything
[03:43] <huey> excuse me ubuntu live
[03:43] <d|v>  Launchpad bug 132271 in linux-source-2.6.22 "[GUTSY] cpu freq scaling not working anymore" [Low,Won't fix]
[03:44] <d|v> that isn't good
[03:44] <JasonBourne> why would someone use both windows and ubuntu?  why not use just one that fits your needs better an avoid having to switch all the time?
[03:44] <ader10> The panel encountered a problem while loading "OAFIID:GNOME_MixerApplet". How do I fix this?
[03:44] <bazhang> JasonBourne: gaming mostly
[03:44] <ere4si> bobbob1016,  the bottom part  of that link is what I'd use
[03:44] <d|v> yeah linux screws you with gaming
[03:44] <bazhang> huey: the live cd and the alternate cd? is that your question?
[03:44] <t2> run linux use vmware o virtualbox to run winblows

[03:45] <biouser> anyone run citrix?
[03:45] <DG19075> \
[03:45] <bobbob1016> ere4si, /tmp/foo should be /dev/sdc right?  or /dev/sdc1?
[03:45] <huey> yeah
[03:45] <mrdinkles> DG19075: says couldnt find flashplayer
[03:45] <huey> bazhang: that is my question, whats the difference?
[03:45] <wols_> !flash | mrdinkles

[03:46] <ericvw> Is there a way so that when I invoke "rm" that I will be prompted for removing a file?
[03:46] <DG19075> use rm -i
[03:46] <wols_> bobbob1016: /tmp is rarely a full partition. what is the problem you want to solve?
[03:46] <ericvw> DG19075: I want it to be automatic though

[03:46] <AngryElf> other than dell, what are some ubuntu pc manufacturers?
[03:47] <ere4si> bobbob1016,  no - /tmp/foo is a place to store the backup superblock #'s - the line further down uses that to repair the file system
[03:47] <jrib> AngryElf: system76 is one

[03:47] <bazhang> huey: several differences--the live lets you use a graphical installer, the alternate is text-based; the alternate will also do when the live fails (in certain situations), that is it in a small nutshell--there are other differences
[03:47] <ader10> The panel encountered a problem while loading "OAFIID:GNOME_MixerApplet". How do I fix this?

[03:50] <bigal> whats the code that teels you how ur com is runing
[03:50] <wols_> bobbob1016: is sdc1 mentined in your /etc/fstab then and if so, what is the line?

[03:51] <poningru> and just add a volume panel
[03:51] <bazhang> huey: try the live and see if it can recognize all your system (without installing), and if it does well--especially with video and wireless then try it out--might be a good idea to have the alternate on hand though

[03:51] <wols_> bobbob1016: did you comment out all your normal partitons?
[03:52] <Cpudan80> jon_: Fixed?
[03:52] <bazhang> jon_: there is a workaround now, should be very shortly
[03:52] <cr4> wols, I can mount a nfs shared folder but I whena I try to fstab mount that automatically it faild
[03:52] <poningru> ader10: hmm that is weird
[03:52] <Cpudan80> jon_: When did it break?
[03:52] <huey> bazhang: I did the alternate first, and i am having troubles. I will try the live now :) Thanks a bunch. Is there a command that boots into the graphical interface of the OS?
[03:52] <cr4> wols_, could you help me ?
[03:52] <poningru> ader10: it happens everytime on restart?
[03:52] <ader10> poningru: Yes
[03:52] <bobbob1016> wols_, No, those were like that automatically, the UUID is how they are mounted, the commented part is the location
[03:52] <poningru> does sound work?
[03:52] <Ose> huey: gdm
[03:52] <compwiz18> !pastebin > compwiz18
[03:52] <wols_> bobbob1016: sry, my bad
[03:52] <jon_> I don't know when the break happened but I just did a fresh install today so my flash stopped working
[03:53] <wols_> bobbob1016: what does sudo mount /dev/sdc1 say?
[03:53] <wols_> bobbob1016: and you did a mkfs on the /dev/sdc1 right?
[03:53] <bazhang> huey: is this gutsy or feisty you plan on using?
[03:53] <FullMon-T> I have no sound. http://pastebin.ca/822560
[03:53] <huey> feisty
[03:53] <BigTone> I had fiesty fawn. I changed to gutsy, and I've been having problems ever since!
[03:53] <bobbob1016> wols_, I formatted it via gparted, which I'm pretty sure did mkfs
[03:53] <bazhang> huey: any reason not to try gutsy?
[03:53] <wols_> cr4: read the catoid ubotu gave you again, until you get it
[03:54] <FullMon-T> BigTone: try hardy. YEESH!
[03:54] <wols_> bobbob1016: "pretty sure" means you don't know :)
[03:54] <huey> bazhang: None whatsoever, what seperates the two?
[03:54] <bobbob1016> wols_, I looked at the details and it said it was mkfs-ing
[03:54] <wols_> bobbob1016: again, what does the mount command say?
[03:54] <jon_> could one of you link me to the flash workaround?
[03:54] <Fjodor> FullMon-T, BigTone: Hardy is still alpha. Do not try unless properly warned...
[03:55] <bobbob1016> wols_, Mounting it that way worked, it didn't before, but I think some combo of what ere4si told me to do and what we did worked.
[03:55] <FullMon-T> Fjodor: I went in with the best of intentions- "alpha" sounded sexy.
[03:55] <bazhang> huey: more support for modern hardware, faster, more stable (at least here), a number of other features--the livecd means that it will allow you to try before you buy (so to speak), using without installing, you know?
[03:55] <ere4si> cr4: try this - http://www.ubuntugeek.com/nfs-server-and-client-configuration-in-ubuntu.html
[03:55] <wols_> bobbob1016: if it worked, congrats, then it should work when rebooting too considering the options you put in
[03:56] <ader10> The panel encountered a problem while loading "OAFIID:GNOME_MixerApplet". How do I fix this? I've searched Google and none of the answers work for me. Help!
[03:56] <poningru> ader10: does sound work?
[03:56] <bobbob1016> wols_, ere4si everyone who helped me, thanks.
[03:56] <Fjodor> FullMon-T: And good luck with that, but in my opinion it's bad to recommend alpha software to anyone not specifically requesting alpha...
[03:56] <wols_> bobbob1016: ere4si did the work, not me
[03:56] <ader10> poningru: Yes
[03:56] <bobbob1016> wols_, One last thing, there is a lost&found folder, do I need it, or no?
[03:57] <poningru> hmm that is weird
[03:57] <bobbob1016> wols, that is why I thanked you both
[03:57] <Condoulo> what is the artwork channel again
[03:57] <bigal> how do you inatale games or programes
[03:57] <huey> bazhang: ah yes I understand. So gutsy has more support for modern hardware? I will be trying all of this soon. This is the first time I have ever fiddled with linux :)
[03:57] <huey> Thanks a lot!
[03:57] <bobbob1016> ere4si, Thanks for the help
[03:57] <poningru> can you try going into a terminal and running 'alsa-mixer' or something like that
[03:57] <FullMon-T> Fjodor: Aside from the massive sex appeal, /fail, I did learn a lot from the experience.
[03:57] <wols_> bobbob1016: you do need it and you cannot remove it ever when you use ext2/3
[03:57] <Joshooa> Hey I am having network issues. Network Manager is not connecting to my network at boot, and it seems my Latency keeps shooting up INCREDIBLY high! How can I force network manager to connect on boot without replacing network manager with Wicd or something, and where can I look more in depth to network settings besides network-admin?
[03:57] <Condoulo> nvm
[03:57] <ere4si> bobbob1016,  if you remove it the system will make it again
[03:57] <rainwalker> bazhang: actually the weird thing about the live cd with me was that effects didn't work when I tried it but then they did after I actually installed
[03:57] <wols_> bobbob1016: it's where it stores the files it repeaired when doing a fsck for example
[03:57] <ere4si> k
[03:58] <bazhang> huey: and hardy heron (slated for release next april) will be a lts release (long term support) so it will be better even still in that department
[03:58] <ader10> poningru: well, seeing that I don't have alsa mixer installed, nothing will happen :P
[03:58] <Fjodor> FullMon-T: Indeed. Are you willing to accept responsibility for getting a less experienced user into that sort of trouble?
[03:58] <poningru> ader10: that explains it
[03:58] <ader10> poningru: But my sound works fine.
[03:58] <bazhang> rainwalker: aha--the 3d effects? just say no :}
[03:58] <poningru> do a sudo aptitude install alsamixer
[03:58] <rainwalker> bazhang: heheh, too late, I've been in love with 'em since Edgy
[03:58] <ader10> poningru: MPD is working fine, youtube is working fine, the problem is the gnome applets, they all crash
[03:59] <bobbob1016> Thanks again, rebooting now.
[03:59] <ader10> poningru: I have tried to reinstall them about 7 times in the last 30 minutes
[03:59] <FullMon-T> bigal: use the add/remove programs
[03:59] <bazhang> rainwalker: there is a 12 step program for that... :}

[04:00] <cr4> If I create a folder in /home, it appears in on desktop and if I create a file on the desktop it apears in the home directory, why shoul I do ?
[04:00] <Jack_Sparrow> bigal: any game in particular
[04:00] <bigal> wow
[04:01] <huey> bazhang: I have heard of other bistros, but ubuntu seems to be the most common bistro?
[04:01] <Jasnation> !swap
[04:01] <ubotu> swap is used to move unused programs and data out of main memory to make your system faster. It can also be used as extra memory if you don't have enough. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SwapFaq for more info

[04:01] <compwiz18> I have a drive that works immediately after I plug it in for a while, then stops: dmesg output is here: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/48806/ Drive is USB, used to work fine.  Any ideas?
[04:02] <poningru> ader10: they all crash?
[04:02] <wols_> Tux360: I'd get the athlon. P4 are bad, the electricity bill alone compared to the athlon
[04:02] <bazhang> huey: distro, but it does have the best community; there are many others but this one has the best support, channel, documentation and info out there
[04:02] <reaper> ubuntu is the best!
[04:02] <Tux360> ok thanks
[04:02] <ader10> poningru: all
[04:02] <Jack_Sparrow> Tux360: I like the pentium myself, and I think it may have a bit of an edge
[04:02]  * nickrud thinks gentoo has the best docs, but that's just him
[04:02] <cr4> If I create a folder in /home, it appears in desktop and if I create a file on the desktop it apears in the home directory, why shoul I do ?
[04:03] <evan_> id go athlon
[04:03] <poningru> ader10: it sounds like you uninstalled a bunch of stuff
[04:03] <bazhang> well outside of gentoo huey :}
[04:03] <Tux360> i cant seem to find a performance chart comparing the two anywhere

[04:03] <huey> bazhang: haha, distro, my apologies, any sugestions before the install?
[04:03] <bigal> it says cant find mount my not have media drive
[04:03] <poningru> Jasnation: reduce your computers memory?
[04:03] <Jack_Sparrow> Jasnation: it is a good thing...
[04:03] <poningru> I know right
[04:03] <poningru> ...
[04:03] <dapimp532> If I can get that for her I will be able to get rid of stupid Microsoft on this computer!
[04:03] <dapimp532> !aol
[04:03] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about aol - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[04:04] <Jasnation> I have 500 firefoxes and openoffices open and it still isn't using it?
[04:04] <Jack_Sparrow> !pidgin | dapimp532:
[04:04] <evan_> um
[04:04] <bazhang> huey: just try to live cd first; if it seems nice, then reboot into windows and back up everything important (you never know) ;}
[04:04] <poningru> dapimp532: what do you mean aol?
[04:04] <dapimp532> Jack_Sparrow: that is the messanger. She wants the full AOL
[04:04] <poningru> aol is an internet service provider
[04:04] <nickrud> cr4, gconf-editor /apps/nautilus/preferences/desktop_is_home_dir , unset that key
[04:04] <ubotu> dapimp532:: pidgin is the new name for Gaim forced by AOL's legal dept. It is available in Ubuntu 7.10 (Gutsy), but not previous versions. See http://www.pidgin.im/index.php for more info. To install Pidgin please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/InstallPidgin2.0
[04:04] <rainwalker> dapimp532: when you say the AOL software, do you mean the browser?
[04:04] <evan_> question: how to make deluge the default application for torrent files?
[04:05] <cr4> nick thank's
[04:05] <nickrud> cr4, or leave it that way, some people prefer it
[04:05] <Jack_Sparrow> dapimp532: YOU can login to AOL with Firefox right?
[04:05] <poningru> right click on a .torrent file
[04:05] <poningru> and go to properties
[04:05] <poningru> and under open with
[04:05] <dapimp532> she wants the full thing with the channels and everything... not aol instant messanger.... She pays for service every month
[04:05] <david__> poningru: All that does is install ubuntu-desktop and gimp-print, nothing else
[04:05] <evan_> easy thanks
[04:05] <huey> bazhang: that is what i figured. I have already managed to wipeout my 30gigs of music by formatting a portion of the partion. Good thing it is backed up.
[04:05] <poningru> david__: huh?
[04:05] <poningru> what?
[04:05] <david__> poningru: <--ader10
[04:05] <poningru> oh
[04:05] <david__> sorry about the confusion
[04:06] <bazhang> huey: and we will be here if there any linux related disasters :}
[04:06] <david__> I thought I changed my nick to ader10_
[04:06] <poningru> david__: ok well install ubuntu-desktop and gimp-print
[04:06] <cr4> nickrud, it doen't works :(
[04:06] <poningru> and do a sudo aptitude update and then sudo aptitude upgrade
[04:06] <dapimp532> you know the Welcome You've Got Mail thing
[04:06] <poningru> err safe-upgrade
[04:06] <huey> bazhang: Thanks again. I appreciate the extremely educating and helpfull support. Wish me luck
[04:06] <evan_> how would I go about completely disabling the motherboard speak?  (jeez that thing is annoying)
[04:06] <poningru> dapimp532: you are not going to find crap like that on linux
[04:07] <bazhang> huey: bonne chance! :}
[04:07] <Fjodor> evan_: sudo rmmod pcspkr
[04:07] <nickrud> cr4, you'll have to do alt-f2 killall nautilus (it'll restart automatically) Those keys are supposed to be instant apply, I guess that one isn't
[04:07] <rainwalker> dapimp532: what is it about the AOL browser that she likes?
[04:07] <Fjodor> and adding pcspkr to /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist
[04:07] <cr4> nickrud, ok
[04:08] <dapimp532> bummer.... I thought it I could find her that I could get rid of Microsoft. She likes that its all in one. her buddy list, mail, and the channels I guess
[04:08] <Jack_Sparrow> dapimp532: FYI many of us dual boot.....
[04:08] <Sonja> does k3b work on ubuntu, or would it be better on kubuntu?
[04:08] <evan_> ok thanks
[04:08] <jon_> I can't open any nautilus windows for some reason
[04:08] <Jack_Sparrow> Sonja: k3b is fine
[04:08] <Jasnation> what should I do if ubuntu isn't using the swap?
[04:08] <dapimp532> I don't like Microsoft. I like unix/linux but unfortunatly my wife has to use the computer too
[04:09] <Jack_Sparrow> Sonja: remember to add the mp3 addon for k3b if you want to burn those
[04:09] <nickrud> dapimp532, and you could run windows in vmware or virtualbox, have the best of both worlds
[04:09] <evan_> another one: why does gpart crash after rescanning devices?
[04:09] <nickrud> or the best and worst of this world
[04:09] <Sonja> dapimp532 get a dual boot?
[04:09] <Ose> Is there a command to show the pid of processes?
[04:09] <Fjodor> Ose: ps?
[04:09] <david__> Ok, this is terrible. I've ctrl-alt-backspace'd out of X and logged in, now I only have a white screen w/ a mouse
[04:09] <rainwalker> dapimp532: you could either dual boot or run windows with vmware/virtualbox
[04:09] <nickrud> Ose, ps -A
[04:09] <Sonja> Jack_Sparrow does k3b support all kinds of various video files and codecs?
[04:09] <houmala> once i got my wife to u7.10 she wont go back to MS
[04:10] <Ose> nickrud/Fjodor: Thanks.
[04:10] <Sonja> what are the most userfriendly irc clients for linux?
[04:10] <Jack_Sparrow> Sonja: k3b is a burning program. it will not remaster dvd's etc...
[04:10] <Fjodor> Ose: Np
[04:10] <wols_> Sonja: irssi. but I'm biased :)
[04:10] <david__> I'm not getting any help here :<
[04:10] <Sonja> what do you mean by it won't remaster?
[04:10] <dapimp532> the only thing that hangs her up is the AOL thing. I don't know why we even have it. We pay good money for the Comcast Cable internet but we also have to pay for AOL. LOL
[04:10] <nickrud> Sonja, xchat for gnome, konversation for kde are very popular
[04:10] <wols_> Sonja: most people use x-chat
[04:10] <Jack_Sparrow> !best
[04:10] <ubotu> Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task. It's up to you to choose among a number of different applications, depending on your preferences, the features you require, and other factors.
[04:10] <Jasnation> !swap
[04:10] <ubotu> swap is used to move unused programs and data out of main memory to make your system faster. It can also be used as extra memory if you don't have enough. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SwapFaq for more info
[04:11] <wols_> !patience | david__
[04:11] <Sonja> if i have an avi in some weird codec, and i want to burn it to a normal dvd i can play in a normal dvd player
[04:11] <ubotu> david__: The people here are volunteers, your attitude should reflect that. Answers are not always available. See http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines
[04:11] <Sonja> i need more than k3b?
[04:11] <Jasnation> !swap partition
[04:11] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about swap partition - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[04:11] <Quiane> hey everyone
[04:11] <Jack_Sparrow> Sonja: If you want to clone dvd's use k9copy
[04:11] <Quiane> i've got a torrent question to pose to anyone listening
[04:11] <Sonja> what does "clone" mean?
[04:11] <Jack_Sparrow> Sonja: copy
[04:11] <Ttech> Hi
[04:11] <Ttech> How do I set the path for the screenshot app built in Ubuntu?
[04:11] <david__> wols_: the !patience command implies that I'm being rude :S
[04:11] <Ttech> I want it to go to a specific folder?
[04:12] <dapimp532> hmmm. The frostwire installed but its not opening
[04:12] <wols_> david__: no it implies that answers are not always available. since we are volunteers we alos don't know answers to everything
[04:12] <Sonja> i want to convert a bunch of different video files (various codecs) as a normal dvd video, with a little menu so you can pick which one you want to watch, with a nice GUI. is that k3b? or do i need other tools too?
[04:12] <Jack_Sparrow> david__: what did you do before restarting x
[04:12] <Quiane> okay....here is the deal..i'm running gutsy...and deluge.  ports have been forwarded..no firewall is running...i get about 30k/s download..but i should be getting up to 500k
[04:13] <Jack_Sparrow> Sonja: that is remastering and not a feature of k3b
[04:13] <david__> Jack_Sparrow: I did something like sudo aptitude reinstall gnome-applets gnome-applet-data
[04:13] <Quiane> i've read all about port forwarding..i think it's an update of gutsy...
[04:13] <verb3k> Quiane, it depends on the number of seeds and peers
[04:13] <david__> Jack_Sparrow: and then pressed ctrl-alt-backspace
[04:13] <Quiane> but i can't nail it down...
[04:13] <wols_> Sonja: you need something to transcode the clips to mpeg2, then you need something to create a dvd menu and possibly the dvd ISO file.those things are not done in k3b
[04:13] <Fjodor> Sonja: Try scouring fresmeat.net. There are dosens of apps that do just that
[04:13] <Sonja> so i need a program for remastering, then import the result of that to k3b?
[04:13] <Quiane> yeah..i've got too ratio's
[04:13] <Sonja> in windows i just use Nero and it does everything for you really nicely
[04:13] <Quiane> on the same torrent i was getting speeds of 90+ kps...
[04:13] <Sonja> i assume something similar exists for linuxes
[04:13] <Jack_Sparrow> david__: some people.. myself included avoid ctrl-alt-backspace....    I prefer to exit fully
[04:13] <Quiane> then i restarted
[04:14] <Fjodor> Sonja: Mostly frontends for transcode or mplayer
[04:14] <verb3k> Quiane, if there are 100 seeds and 500 peers, it won't be that fast
[04:14] <Quiane> can't break the 40k
[04:14] <Quiane> 10 seeds, 28 peers 24kps
[04:14] <Sonja> a nice gui to create a menu and remaster the files to make the package ready to be burned onto a dvd
[04:14] <david__> Jack_Sparrow: Yes, I logged out the first 5 times instead of the panic key combo
[04:14] <bazhang> !info devede
[04:14] <verb3k> Quiane, should be slow XD
[04:14] <ubotu> devede: program to create video DVDs. In component multiverse, is optional. Version 2.13-0.0 (gutsy), package size 741 kB, installed size 1700 kB
[04:14] <david__> Jack_Sparrow: But since that didn't help I figured that ctrl-alt-backspace couldn't hurt
[04:15] <bazhang> Sonja: try devede
[04:15] <wols_> Sonja: k3b is a simply a burning program. it burns stuff to cd. can up to a point master them but afaik not DVDs
[04:15] <Quiane> hmm..nothing? i know about torrents...these are not the speeds i should be getting
[04:15] <verb3k> Quiane, to know if the problem is from that file or not, try downloading ubuntu torrent and see the difference
[04:15] <bazhang> offtopic Quiane
[04:15] <evan_> screen refresh rate is being set incorrectly to 50Hz, should be 60 Hz, I've already tried changing it in graphical properties and Xorg, not sure what to do
[04:15] <Sonja> devede eh
[04:15] <Sonja> oki
[04:15] <Quiane> ubuntu torrent? like the default bittorrent client?
[04:15] <Jack_Sparrow> david__: I am heading to bed...  someone should be able to help..  sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg  probably wont do any good
[04:15] <bazhang> torrent speeds Quiane
[04:15] <Quiane> i've tried azerus, ktorrent and deluge
[04:15] <wols_> evan_: pastebin your xorg.conf and your xorg logs
[04:16] <nickrud> evan_, if it's an nvidia, I've heard that installing nvidia-settings will help
[04:16] <david__> Jack_Sparrow: Is there any waty to reconfigure gnome applets?
[04:16] <NeT_DeMoN> question, what could have happend if half your system and pidgin logs disappear???
[04:16] <verb3k> Quiane, no no ...I mean download the ubuntu ISO from the official torrent
[04:16] <bazhang> learn about port forwarding and NAT Quiane
[04:16] <wols_> evan_: also, is your monitor a LCD screen?
[04:16] <evan_> yea, its a quadro.  I was also wondering if the quadro can be used to do double buffering of windows and such
[04:16] <evan_> yes, a laptop screen
[04:16] <bazhang> Quiane: that is a router issue, not an ubuntu one
[04:17] <wols_> evan_: then 50Hz is normal and you cannot change it nor you'd want to
[04:17] <Quiane> i have learned about port forwarding and nat..as far as i can tell it's all forwarded..iptables is disabled...the port is open
[04:17] <Quiane> upnp is running
[04:17] <evan_> wols_: Iim not sure what "pastebin" is
[04:17] <Quiane> by all accounts i should have good speeds..that's why i'm in here
[04:17] <evan_> no, 60 Hz is normal
[04:17] <NeT_DeMoN> any one??
[04:17] <wols_> evan_: no need anymore. you cannot go above 50Hz on a LCD
[04:17] <wols_> evan_: LCDs have one exact refresh rate and that's it. usually 50 or 60Hz
[04:17] <bazhang> Quiane: what client?
[04:17] <verb3k> Quiane, just try and see http://releases.ubuntu.com
[04:17] <Quiane> deluge
[04:18] <evan_> all computer lcds afaik have 60 hz refresh rates
[04:18] <Quiane> i'm getting 880kps
[04:18] <evan_> thats what it is in windows too
[04:18] <SpookyET> Has anyone played with powertop? It tells you how much electricity an app uses. It also allows you to turn off stuff. good for laptops
[04:18] <Quiane> dialed back to 200 now
[04:18] <wols_> evan_: not everyhwhere. and I told you, you cannot set any refresh rate with LCDs. just not possible due to the way their work
[04:18] <wols_> evan_: what windosw tells you and what it uses are possibly different things.
[04:19] <Quiane> staying steady between 190-200
[04:19] <evan_> wols_: ok, I guess i should be happy its even working, buy I know full well about refresh rates on both lcds and crts
[04:19] <dapimp532> how can I adjust how many lines it scrolls down when I use my touchpad mouse? It is doing like 5-7 lines and I would like it to be about 3
[04:19] <wers> i forgot the password I set for daap. how do I reset it?
[04:20] <evan_> wols_:thanks though, sounds like I shouldn't mess with it
[04:20] <evan_> or cant, even
[04:20] <boddah82> can someone help me please, i downloaded the 7.1 CD  & burned it and nothing happened, windows says its size is 0bytes, tried burning it at slower speed (as low as 8x) and still the same results
[04:20] <NeT_DeMoN> ok, maybe a different question, why is my mozilla slow when my messenger and here is fast ???
[04:21] <wols_> evan_: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Refresh_rate#LCD_displays
[04:21] <NITA> HAI,BOLEH KENALAN NGGAK.

[04:24] <NeT_NITA> HAI,BOLEH KENALAN NGGAK

[04:24] <bazhang> ugh

[04:24] <crush_groove> NeT_DeMoN,  open a terminal and type "top"

[04:26] <dapimp532> how can I adjust how many lines it scrolls down when I use my touchpad mouse? It is doing like 5-7 lines and I would like it to be about 3
[04:26] <Myrtti> I just had the remove ready
[04:26] <Pici> Myrtti: me too ;)
[04:26] <nickrud> wers, they're kept in the gconf registry , run gconf-editor and navigate the tree to apps/rhythmbox
[04:26] <Sonja> does linux use ttf fonts?
[04:26] <wols_> sysRPL: needs to be clean first
[04:26] <wols_> Sonja: yes
[04:27] <TigranG>  Is there any way to get different wallpapers on each workspace?
[04:27] <NeT_DeMoN> wols_: i have over 170,000k memory left
[04:27] <Sonja> yay fontiness!
[04:27] <wols_> NeT_DeMoN: try another browser, try wget
[04:27] <Quiane> anyone have any ideas for me regarding slow torrent downloads?
[04:27] <NeT_DeMoN> wols_: ok
[04:27] <nickrud> TigranG, there are hacks that try to, but I've never seen one work reliably
[04:27] <wols_> NeT_DeMoN: could be a mandatory proxy for example that's slow
[04:27] <Quiane> ports have been forwarded..upnp is running
[04:27] <Quiane> bit torrent is encrypting the traffic
[04:27] <joegilliam> I need some help...my graphis are really slow.  I have an integrated video card (SIS), and I know I can't get 3-d acceleration, but I'd like to at least play a game like neverball
[04:27] <Quiane> i'm connected to all peers
[04:28] <NeT_DeMoN> wols_: ok
[04:28] <sysRPL> wols: i can't boot to it, shouldn't the force option allow me to mount it even though it wasn;t shutdown correctly? if not how can i "clean" it?
[04:28] <TigranG> nickrud: Why isn't this built into gnome tho? Like KDE
[04:28] <Quiane> can't break 30-40kps
[04:28] <wols_> joegilliam: you using VESA right now? maybe change it to the sis driver
[04:28] <nickrud> TigranG, good question, I've missed it since enlightenment
[04:28] <nickrud> or sawfihs
[04:28] <nickrud> *fish
[04:28] <joegilliam> wols_: how do I check to see what driver I'm using?
[04:28] <sysRPL> wols_: ?
[04:28] <wols_> sysRPL: there is a ntfs fsck program in ntfsprogs or such. but be wary, night not work very well. ntfs isn't well supported in linux at all
[04:29] <wols_> joegilliam: grep Driver /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[04:29] <david__> What's the difference between "GNOME" and "Failsafe GNOME"?
[04:29] <TigranG> nickrud: I really want it :P ...been slaving over this all day, nothing works
[04:29] <boddah82> quiane: surely the fact that the ubuntu torrent downloaded at avg speed of 200k shows its that particular torrent thats slow?
[04:29] <nickrud> TigranG, it's been a wish list bug in nautilus since forever ;(
[04:29] <sysRPL> wols_: isn't there some why to force it to mount? what about the "-o force" option? i don't know much about linux and i figured i typed the command wrong
[04:29] <joegilliam> wols_: I'm using sis driver now
[04:29] <bazhang> Quiane: this is the ubuntu torrent?
[04:30] <wols_> joegilliam: that's all you can do besides getting new hardare then I guess
[04:30] <NeT_DeMoN> wols_: where do i get wget from??
[04:30] <TigranG> nickrud: guess what
[04:30] <Quiane> it shouldn't be downloaded at 28kps consistantly...i usually get over 100k..i typically have to limit my bandwidth to be able to browse
[04:30] <TigranG> nickrud: I think Im gonna burst out laughing
[04:30] <wols_> sysRPL: you didn't tell us what command exactly but imho you're mostly out of luck. use a windows BartPE disk
[04:30] <Quiane> the ubuntu torrent is getting 200k
[04:30] <TigranG> nickrud: I just got it hahaha. it works.
[04:30] <joegilliam> wols_: when I ran winblows on this computer graphics were fine
[04:30] <Quiane> my bit torrent client can't pass 40k
[04:31] <Quiane> 28up 28 down
[04:31] <bazhang> Quiane: contact your isp--not an ubuntu issue
[04:31] <Quiane> it's got to be
[04:31] <sysRPL> wols_: the command was "mount -t ntfs-3g /dev/sda1 /media/disk -o force"
[04:31] <jon_> anyone in here use hellanzb?
[04:31] <wols_> Quiane: you are lying: the ubuntu torrent ran at 200 as you yourself said. proving it's not your end that is the problem
[04:31] <Quiane> i have contacted the isp...it's not on their end
[04:31] <TigranG> nickrud: I was trying to do it with the Cube settings and patched nautilus, but I just tried it with the Wallpaper plugin. works perfectly :)
[04:31] <Quiane> i'm lying? lol
[04:31] <wols_> sysRPL: don't use ntfs-3g, use ntfs and mount it read only
[04:31] <Quiane> 200 k is about half of my transfer capability...
[04:32] <nickrud> TigranG, wallpaper plugin? New to me, point me in the right direction, please
[04:32] <bazhang> offtopic Quiane
[04:32] <wols_> Quiane: stop whining about OT things which are wrong anyways please
[04:32] <Quiane> realistically it should be transfering faster than 200 k...but..that aside..
[04:32] <nickrud> TigranG, ah, you mean in ccm
[04:32] <evan_> Quiane: you dont always get max speed out of torrents
[04:32] <TigranG> nickrud: Yea. Plugin for compiz
[04:32] <sysRPL> wols_: okay, but anyhow the return of the command i last pasted was "fuse: failed to access mountpoint /media/disk: No such file or directory"
[04:32] <david__> :'S Nobody's going to help me.
[04:32] <boddah82> it still shows that you can go well above 28k, and the bad thing about torrents is speed can fluctuate dramatically
[04:32] <wols_> sysRPL: does /media/disk exist?
[04:33] <evan_> Quiane: if you havent already, try limiting your upload speed to ~75% of your max UL speed
[04:33] <Quiane> i know, but i can't pass 40k....with gutsy, before i updated, i was consistanly getting 90 - 200 on the torrents
[04:33] <wols_> david__: if you keep up the whining I sure hope no one does
[04:33] <sysRPL> wols_: i don't know that much about linux to tell you :(

[04:33] <ubotu> Quiane: piracy discussion and other questionably legal practices are not welcome in the Ubuntu channels. Please take this discussion elsewhere or abstain from it altogether. This includes linking to pirated software, music and video. Also see !guidelines and !o4o
[04:33] <wols_> sysRPL: then check?
[04:33] <david__> wols_: You're not helping. Keep your mean comments to yourself.
[04:33] <sysRPL> wols_: i wouldn
[04:33] <Quiane> err?
[04:33] <Quiane> i'm not talking about piracy
[04:33] <NeT_DeMoN> i have bittorrent but it doesnt show up on my apps
[04:33] <Quiane> ?
[04:33] <joegilliam> wols_: there must be some kind of way to get decent graphics, when I ran windows on this computer the graphics were fine
[04:33] <nova> can anyone help me a resolution problem i am experiencing
[04:33] <Quiane> thnx evan
[04:33] <Quiane> i'm trying it now
[04:33] <jekasten> can somebody tell how to connect to another machine on the network using name and password only?
[04:33] <khelll> how can i configure my wireless via console ?
[04:34] <tsukasa__> hi guys
[04:34] <sysRPL> wols_: "ls /media" lists nothing
[04:34] <wols_> khelll: with wireless tools and editing /etc/network/interfaces
[04:34] <crush_groove> nova be specific
[04:34] <bazhang> khelll: iwconfig
[04:34] <wols_> sysRPL: that's the problem
[04:34] <sysRPL> wols_: i wouldn't know where the mount point would be though
[04:34] <kelsin> khelll: iwconfig to set the essid "sudo iwconfig <interface> essid <essid>" then dhclient to get an ip (if you use dhcp) "sudo dhclient <interface>"
[04:34] <wols_> khelll: wireless-tools rather
[04:34] <tsukasa__> im looking for some way of getting ssh access entirely via the web - a web based java client wont do it it needs to be something like a html submit
[04:34] <wols_> sysRPL: it's at /media/disk. at least that's what you specified
[04:34] <jon_> Torrents aren't of questionable practice and I didn't see a link to anything questionable? It is off-topic though
[04:34] <tsukasa__> is there a service i can run that does that?
[04:35] <bazhang> and spam
[04:35] <joegilliam> Quiane: search google for bittorrent over ssh to avoid isp bandwidth throttling.
[04:35] <nova> crush_groove: ok heres my prob, for some reason gutsy will not remember my res, every time i log off my 1920x1200@60 reverts back to 1280x1024@52
[04:35] <Quiane> there is a topic in here?
[04:35] <openros> s
[04:35] <wols_> tsukasa__: there are some that work via cgi. they are awful. truly aweful
[04:35] <sysRPL> wols_: well ... what would be a valid mount point name?
[04:35] <boddah82> :D alcohol seemed to work, thanks :)
[04:35] <nova> cursh_groove: i have tried many things to try and solve it but to no avail
[04:35] <TigranG> nickrud: If you want it, I mostly followed this: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=600909
[04:35] <Quiane> okie..looking
[04:35] <jekasten> can somebody tell how to connect to another machine on the network using name and password only?
[04:35] <crush_groove> anytime boddah82
[04:35] <tsukasa__> wols_, well i need some way of sshing with using html ports so
[04:35] <NeT_DeMoN> ok, even bigger problem, i cant download anything, it starts but then quits, like my download manager freezes
[04:35] <wols_> sysRPL: /media/disk for example. any empty directory will do
[04:35] <TigranG> nickrud: and I have to go, hope it works for you too, bye
[04:35] <tsukasa__> wols_, it might be filtered by packet type too, not sure
[04:35] <kelsin> jekasten: another linux machine? And what do you mean connect exactly?
[04:36] <wols_> tsukasa__: then let ssh listen on port 80 or 443
[04:36] <sysRPL> wols_: that did it
[04:36] <sysRPL> wols_: thank you
[04:37] <sysRPL> wols_: oh, one other thing
[04:37] <kelsin> tsukasa__: you're trying to connect to a machine that's behind this firewall?
[04:37] <khelll> wols_ how to run the wireless-tools ?
[04:37] <sysRPL> wols_: my windows\system32\winlogin.exe file is corrupt preventing windows from starting in any sort of mode
[04:37] <tsukasa__> kelsin, the problem is the internet connection im trying to connect from has massive firewalls / security / etc and they block ssh
[04:37] <wols_> khelll: /usr/share/doc/wireless-tools/
[04:38] <kelsin> tsukasa__: do you have access to this machine at all, the one that's behind this massive firewall?
[04:38] <rosarioarun> h
[04:38] <sysRPL> wols_: how dangerous is to to mount a windows volume in read-write mode?
[04:38] <tsukasa__> kelsin, yeah its the machine im sshing from
[04:38] <wols_> khelll: while you can run iwconfig (part of the wireless tools) for longtime configuration you want to edit your interfaces file or you have to run the commands after every bootup
[04:38] <kelsin> tsukasa__: wow they block outbound?
[04:38] <tsukasa__> kelsin, the machine im sshing to i can control completely
[04:38] <tsukasa__> yes
[04:38] <khelll> wols_ can u guide me what to do exactly
[04:39] <wols_> sysRPL: no one knows. haven't really heard of fs corruption due to it yet but it is reverse engineered so no one will ever give you any guarantees
[04:39] <wols_> khelll: no
[04:39] <Flughafen> does anyone know of a good program for converting video files?
[04:39] <jekasten> well the pc is part of a laser machine with linux  i would like to log in and change some files there. i cant  find a way to see the OS the only thing it provides are network folders tnx
[04:39] <jon_> sysRPL. I have been mounting ntfs partitions in r\w for a long time without problems
[04:39] <rosarioarun> h
[04:39] <kelsin> tsukasa__: wow.... blocking ssh outbound sucks, yeah I would make your ssh server run on port 80 on your machine, then run "ssh -p 80<EMAIL_ADDRESS>when you connect
[04:39] <wols_> kelsin: many companies block outbound except http
[04:39] <caifei> hello
[04:40] <tsukasa__> kelsin, okay ill try that
[04:40] <caifei> daqiu
[04:40] <kelsin> wols_: glad I don't work for one of those :)
[04:40] <nova> anyone know how to make gutsy remember my resolution, every time i log off it reverts back to a lower res
[04:40] <bazhang> Flughafen: converting what to what
[04:40] <sysRPL> wols_: i guess i will copy my files to a usb thumb drive from linux first, then try and write a new winloging.exe to the windows\system32 directory
[04:40] <indu> hi all
[04:40] <indu> for a package to be displayed in the update manager for upgrade, is higher version alone is enough or anything else need to be done in the deb package ?
[04:40] <Flughafen> anything to anything, like .avi to mpeg
[04:40] <wols_> Jesus|Freak: use samba to mount those shares
[04:40] <sysRPL> wols_: thanks for all the help! i really appreciated it
[04:40] <tsukasa__> yeah isnt the point of security to prevent the outside from getting in rather then preventing the inside to getting out
[04:40] <Flughafen> bazhang, anything to anything, like .avi to mpeg
[04:40] <wols_> indu: it needs to be in the repos
[04:40] <NeT_DeMoN> any one know what could be wrong if every time i try to download something my download manager quits responding??

[04:44] <wols_> khelll: if you use madwifi: none of them is
[04:44] <bazhang> eth1 most likely khelll
[04:44] <kelsin> khelll: run "iwconfig" alone, it will tell you, or should
[04:44] <NeT_DeMoN> bazhang: so technically you beat me :P

[04:52] <aeonix> wols_ i dont get it tar isnt unziping it
[04:52] <bazhang> NeT_DeMoN: what are you trying to install from add/remove? the command line is much easier and will give you some error messages as well

[04:54] <khelll_> bazhang what is that?
[04:54] <NeT_DeMoN> bazhang: iceweasel
[04:55] <mint> bazhang: I would go with Opera, if you had to choose one.
[04:55] <HelloWorld> nevermind i found some... of it in key shortcuts
[04:55] <bazhang> mint: not for me but thanks :}
[04:55] <kelsin> HelloWorld: hopefully for the media keys you can just goto the keyboard shortcuts app in System -> Prefs and set them
[04:55] <HelloWorld> will ask again in a bit if i can't find the rest
[04:55] <HelloWorld> kelsin thanks realized that right before you responded :)

[04:57] <mint> AmbienNOD: Good for protecting your porn folder.

[04:58] <aeonix> how do i unpack a .tar.bz2?
[04:58] <HelloWorld> kelsin the lauch buttons was able to configure, thanks
[04:58] <needhelpinstalli> the installer says it needs minimums 2GB
[04:59] <bazhang> NeT_DeMoN: synaptic, not add/remove--you need to enable the non-free repositories
[04:59] <needhelpinstalli> but then it is dying at 73% without a popup
[04:59] <needhelpinstalli> saying disk full
[04:59] <HelloWorld> for the audio wheel, no luck same with the low power/noise mode
[04:59] <needhelpinstalli> and then t installer just disappears
[04:59] <NeT_DeMoN> bazhang: ok
[04:59] <compwiz18> needhelpinstalli: is the disk actually full?
[04:59] <needhelpinstalli> yes

[05:00] <needhelpinstalli> that says that GG does not handle full disks gracefully
[05:00] <needhelpinstalli> and the installer just dies
[05:00] <compwiz18> needhelpinstalli: you can try using the server install cd
[05:00] <compwiz18> needhelpinstalli: do you need a gui?
[05:00] <Jesus|Freak> nick J_F
[05:00] <needhelpinstalli> on earlier versions it seems like you coudl use the command archive-copier/copy=false
[05:00] <Jesus|Freak> J_F
[05:00] <needhelpinstalli> to save space on installation
[05:00] <needhelpinstalli> but now is it only gui install?

[05:01] <osmosis>  error: error accessing /var/log/ntop: No such file or directory
[05:01] <osmosis>  error: ntop:1 glob failed for /var/log/ntop/*.log
[05:01] <Sajes> There's a command to see if 3D acceleration is running correctly. it was something | grep something. Anyone know?
[05:01] <compwiz18> needhelpinstalli: at least then you can clean out the package archives
[05:01] <needhelpinstalli> is there any way for me to use the archive-copier/copy=false command anymore?
[05:01] <osmosis> why is it want an ntop directory?
[05:02] <Eagleray> Goodrow: I don't have web access at the moment (at work), you'll have to count me out I'm afraid
[05:02] <joegilliam> how do I turn on direct rendering
[05:02] <joegilliam> ?
[05:02] <osmosis> /etc/logrotate.d/ntop  found it.
[05:02] <Eagleray> Goodrow: actually.... I might be able to get it - hang on
[05:02] <Flughafen> does anyone here know how to use ffmpeg?
[05:02] <Goodrow> well, i can simplify it: windows can connect to a low wireless signal but ubuntu cannot. ubuntu either loops trying to connect, or doesnt show the network
[05:03] <crush_groove> what is "rendering"?? making ?
[05:03] <Goodrow> Eagleray: it does, however, connect when the signal is strong
[05:03] <cr4> how can I restart nautilus since installation ?
[05:03] <Eagleray> Goodrow: which wireless chipset/driver are you using?
[05:03] <crush_groove> cr4 isnt in panel ?
[05:04] <Goodrow> broadcom, and one i found online through ubuntu support
[05:04] <joegilliam> how do I turn on direct rendering so I can run opengl games?
[05:04] <J_F> How do you recover a lost password for a nick?  Sendpass does not work.
[05:04] <Goodrow> i couldnt get bwcutter working (looking back because i didnt have the developer essentials), so i grabbed one offline
[05:04] <[gquit]bombadil> joegilliam: what kind of video card do you have?
[05:04] <cr4> crush_groove, I have some problems with gnome all the folders on home appears in desktop
[05:04] <jrib> J_F: reset it
[05:05] <cr4> crush_groove, I have move some thing in gconf-editor but it doen't works
[05:05] <J_F> How do you do that
[05:05] <cr4> crush_groove, what shoul I do ?
[05:05] <Eagleray> Goodrow: which kernel do you have, and which broadcom driver? There are two, one for the new stack and one for the old stack
[05:05] <joegilliam> [gquit]bombadil: i have an sis integrated video adapter
[05:05] <jrib> J_F: do you have access to an account that can sudo?
[05:05] <crush_groove> cr4 "cd /bin/usr ./nautilus"
[05:05] <thyrax> Is there an upto date guide for installing USHARE or FUPPES? for ps3 and xbox360???
[05:05] <Eagleray> Goodrow: 'uname -r' will tell you your kernel
[05:05] <needhelpinstalli> are you still there?
[05:05] <J_F> NO
[05:05] <[gquit]bombadil> you'll have to check to make sure opengl is supported in linux with that driver
[05:05] <Goodrow> Eagleray: not on linux right now
[05:05] <[gquit]bombadil> you may have to install a different driver
[05:05] <Goodrow> i'm using gutsy though
[05:06] <[gquit]bombadil> or get a different video card
[05:06] <joegilliam> [gquit]bombadil: vesa?
[05:06] <[gquit]bombadil> vesa is the default driver
[05:06] <[gquit]bombadil> that doesnt support opengl
[05:06] <jrib> J_F: reboot, select "recovery mode" from the grub menu, do the following command: passwd USER.  Where "USER" is your actual username.
[05:06] <Eagleray> Goodrow: I have no idea which kernel gutsy is supposed to have at the mo - I use debian, not ubuntu, and I usually do my own kernels anyway
[05:06] <cr4> crush_groove, it says that it couldn't find urs in bin
[05:06] <jrib> !who | J_F
[05:06] <ubotu> J_F: As you can see, this is a large channel. If you're speaking to someone in particular, please put their nickname in what you say (use !tab), or else messages get lost and it becomes confusing :)
[05:06] <[gquit]bombadil> joegilliam: you'll need to get one more specific to your videocard
[05:06] <Eagleray> Does anyone know which kernel version gutsy uses by default?
[05:06] <joegilliam> [gquit]bombadil: I have the sis driver installed, don't know much about it though
[05:07] <J_F> no I lost my nick password in irc
[05:07] <Flughafen> does anyone here know how to use ffmpeg?
[05:07] <crush_groove> cd /bin/usr then type ./nautilus
[05:07] <needhelpinstalli> Does anyone know how I can follow this advice using a 7.10 install CD, "On your next install, you can try passing the following argument:
[05:07] <needhelpinstalli> archive-copier/copy=false
[05:07] <needhelpinstalli> This argument tells the archive-copier to not copy all the packages onto the hard-drive."
[05:07] <Ttech> Flughafen, Not a clue, I just know it works. :)
[05:07] <needhelpinstalli> it seems like I can only install via a GUI?
[05:07] <Flughafen> Ttech, have you ever used it?
[05:07] <joegilliam> [gquit]bombadil: it's an sis video adapter  (silicon integrated systems)  its integrated into the motherboard
[05:07] <Goodrow> could the driver be the issue? wouldn't it not work at all with the driver for the wrong stack?
[05:07] <Jonathon> Anyone know how to get the NetworkManager to recognise ppp0 as a viable pptp tunnel interface?
[05:07] <jrib> J_F: then you need to speak with a freenode staff member.  See freenode's faq on how to contact one
[05:07] <NeT_DeMoN> bazhang: my synaptic quit responding now
[05:07] <Flughafen> Ttech, I installed it and cant find it
[05:07] <Eagleray> Flughafen: A lot of people know how to use ffmpeg, but until you describe your problem no-one knows if they can help you. Can you explain in more detail please?
[05:08] <CrossKel> wols_ : setxkbmap looks like it is what I have been looking for, once I understand it. Thank you very much!
[05:08] <[gquit]bombadil> joegilliam: that's what i figured, it seems that the driver you have installed doesnt support opengl
[05:08] <The_Doctor2> Flughafen, I'm not sure if that exact thing, but it would probbably be a commadn line app. I know I needed it to decode or help decode dvd's in ubuntu. Or somemthing liek that. :)
[05:08] <Eagleray> Goodrow: possibly, and the linux broadcom driver also doesn't have fully implemented noise filtering yet
[05:08] <Flughafen> I installed ffmpeg and can not find it.   :P
[05:09] <Eagleray> Flughafen: how are you trying to run it? Are you aware that ffmpeg is a commandline program?
[05:09] <Flughafen> Eagleray, no i was not aware
[05:09] <NeT_DeMoN> can any one help me with my download problems, i cant download anything
[05:09] <Flughafen> Eagleray, is there a tutorial or something showing me the commands
[05:09] <Eagleray> Flughafen: it doesn't have a GUI and won't appear on your menu - it's a commandline transcoding tool
[05:09] <Flughafen> Eagleray, yea, thanks
[05:09] <Eagleray> !ffmpeg|Flughafen
[05:09] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ffmpeg - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[05:10] <Flughafen> haha
[05:10] <Goodrow> net, using a browser? a specific program?
[05:10] <Eagleray> Flughafen: hang on, I'll see if I can find you a tutorial - the work people just enabled my net access :D
[05:10] <dbuZer> hi
[05:10] <ahjie> hi

[05:10] <bitsbam_> hello all
[05:10] <stacey> ok i asked this twice but my pidgn doesnt seam to follow on so i lost the reply
[05:10] <Eagleray> Goodrow: just have a play with your driver; if you can, disable powersave mode
[05:10] <crush_groove> ahjie,  just state the question
[05:10] <dbuZer> i have problems with the qemu... the error is... FLOPPY ERROR: fdctrl_write_data: unknown command: 0x2e
[05:11] <Goodrow> eagle, ill try that
[05:11] <Eagleray> Goodrow: also please address your messages, otherwise I miss them
[05:11] <ahjie> i am a new user of ubuntu..and I have installed 6.06. However i do not know is ubutntu6.06 is known as debian ?
[05:11] <Goodrow> Eagleray: haha will do, my mirc exploded so im using cgi irc. lemme go toy with the driver a bit
[05:11] <dbuZer> when i booting win98, the terminal give me this error end freeze...
[05:11] <crush_groove> ahjie,  yes
[05:11] <needhelpinstalli> is there any way for me to delete some files, such as unnecessary software, before installing 7.10 from the LiveCD?  I'm running out of disk space in the installer
[05:11] <cr4> crush_groove, ok I have done but I maked a restar and that folders still there, I mean in desktop
[05:11] <stacey> atheros card worked in feisty but broke in gutsy, i have no alternate internet how do i get it to work?
[05:11] <ahjie> how bout Fedora ?
[05:12] <cr4> crush_groove, that are the same files enside of /home :(
[05:12] <ahjie> what is the differences
[05:12] <Ttech> ahjie, this us Ubntu
[05:12] <dbuZer> how can i disable the floppy access in qemu?
[05:12] <crush_groove> ahjie,  no
[05:12] <dbuZer> how can i disable the floppy access in qemu? (maybe in the bios)
[05:12] <Ttech> ahjie, this us Ubuntu not Fedora.
[05:12] <stacey> needhelpinstalli: i dont think so, use alternate?
[05:12] <Eagleray> Flughafen: take a look at http://swoolley.org/man.cgi/1/ffmpeg (the ffmpeg manpage)
[05:12] <Ttech> dbuZer, I think its sa commadn line option for quemu
[05:12] <Ttech> :)
[05:12] <Flughafen> Eagleray, thanks
[05:12] <ahjie> is it totally different OS?
[05:12] <dbuZer> Ttech: how can i do this?
[05:12] <Eagleray> Flughafen: you can also access this on your system by going to #ffmpeg in konqueror, or typing 'man ffmpeg' into a terminal
[05:13] <Ose> Is there a way to delete all files under a certain size?
[05:13] <bazhang> ahjie: ubuntu is based on debian, it is not debian
[05:13] <bitsbam_> did something happen to flash in ubuntu? flashplugin-nonfree isn't that good anymore
[05:13] <crush_groove> cr4 /home/usrname will have the  some of the stuff on your desktop and vice versa . thats normal
[05:13] <Flughafen> Eagleray, i dont use kubuntu, i dont have konqueror
[05:13] <jrib> Ose: you can use the 'find' command
[05:13] <dbuZer> Ttech: i cant inicialize win98 in the qemu... always give-me this error and freeze...
[05:13] <Pici> !debian | ahjie
[05:13] <ubotu> ahjie: Ubuntu and Debian are closely related. Ubuntu builds on the foundations of Debian architecture and infrastructure, with a different community and release process. See http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/relationship - Remember, !repositories meant for Debian should NOT be used on Ubuntu!
[05:13] <needhelpinstalli> stacey: if I use alternate is it going to be di fficult to get the install into a state that I can use as a desktop without a lot of linux experience?
[05:13] <NeT_DeMoN> bazhang: my synaptic quit respondig when i did that
[05:13] <NeT_DeMoN> responding^^^
[05:13] <Eagleray> Flughafen: then you can view it through the terminal, or online via the link I gave you
[05:14] <ahjie> bcoz i came across an installer which is for Fedora
[05:14] <cr4> crush_groove, no, two ahour ago it was different
[05:14] <dbuZer> can someone help-me with qemu?
[05:14] <Ose> jrib: I'm using the find to look for all files in subsequent directories.. That could be adapted to also find them of a certain size? Less than a size, actually.
[05:14] <cr4> crush_groove, I have had my ubuntu runing really cool 6 months :(
[05:14] <ahjie> when i try to go google. it returns me debian
[05:14] <ahjie> and i thought it refers to same thniog
[05:14] <jrib> Ose: yes
[05:14] <Flughafen> Eagleray, thanks
[05:14] <dbuZer> i cant run win98 in the qemu... the install finished ok, but this don't start... always fail when try to access a floppy
[05:14] <crush_groove>  cr4 . that is al I know to do . maybe sum1 else here can help.
[05:15] <bazhang> ahjie: www.ubuntu.com vs. www.debian.org
[05:15] <jsilverman> i love ubuntu
[05:15] <jsilverman> praise ubuntu
[05:15] <Ttech> Flughafen, all *buntu apps are compatible you can install Konquer in Ubuntu, and X* apps in ubuntu vise versa
[05:15] <ahjie> ohh
[05:15] <Ttech> :P
[05:15] <needhelpinstalli> is there any difference between server install and desktop install other than the lack of GUI at first?
[05:15] <cr4> crush_groove, ok thank's
[05:15] <Ttech> dbuZer, Hmm, I don't know, I use VMWare server which is free and a lot nice. :P
[05:15] <Ttech> Its just not open source
[05:15] <bazhang> jsilverman: nice to know you have a support question?
[05:15] <Ose> jrib: ANy idea what the command w*ould look like?
[05:15] <cr4> sum1 could you help me ?
[05:15] <stacey> needhelpinstalli: i think its doable but ull be missing useful apps, just apt-get *buntu-desktop should give basics but it will give you most of the livecd stuff anyway
[05:15] <Eagleray> dbuZer: have you actually specified the floppy image or device?
[05:16] <Eagleray> dbuZer: what are you trying to do?
[05:16] <needhelpinstalli> is there any way to install from the desktop livecd from the command line so I can pass it options?
[05:16] <indu> wols_, sorry, i was away from my system for a while
[05:16] <jsilverman> bazhang: hell no. i run Shaivist Ubuntu... sm0kin'
[05:16] <indu> wols_, in synaptic the package is marked for upgrade, but in update manager the package is not shown for upgradation
[05:16] <dbuZer> Eagleray: i have a img file... that call win98... i use this to run: #qemu win98
[05:16] <bazhang> offtopic jsilverman
[05:16] <indu> wols_, anything else to be done for my package during the build time ?
[05:17] <Eagleray> dbuZer: you need to specify your floppy there too
[05:17] <stacey> my atheros card worked in feisty but broke in gutsy, i have no alternate internet how do i get it to work?
[05:17] <jsilverman> i'm making a ubuntu distro that is about smokin weed
[05:17] <jrib> Ose: I would have to read the man page.  Just search for "size":  /size<ENTER>  then tap 'n' until you find something interesting
[05:17] <Eagleray> dbuZer: for example, '# qemu -fda /dev/fda win98.img
[05:17] <NeT_DeMoN> jsilverman: try #offtopic
[05:17] <jsilverman> ok
[05:17] <dbuZer> Eagleray: i think the problem is with the floopy, when qemu try to access the floopy in the so, this fail and freeze the screen... theres a way to disable floopy emulation?
[05:17] <Ose> jrib: I'm taking a look at the manual right now. THanks.

[05:22] <dbuZer> its possible?
[05:23] <rkj> stacey did you mean ubuntu can read and write ntfs? I read that is only in 7.10, I have 7.04 installed.  from what I've read, it can read but not write to ntfs.
