[16:26] <Daisuke-Laptop> eclipse23: you're being incredibly annoying, that's probably why you aren't getting much help.  slow down, take a breath, and ask clearly
[16:26] <abutcher> eclipse23: Try envy http://www.albertomilone.com/nvidia_scripts1.html
[16:26] <eclipse23> sorry bro
[16:26] <ikonia> abutcher: don't recommend envy

[16:27] <ikonia> !envy | abutcher
[16:27] <Pici> xif: Theres rsibreak, it seems to be more oriented to KDE, it should work in Gnome.  Theres another one, but I cant remember the name off the top of my head.
[16:27] <Daisuke-Laptop> abutcher: no.  envy is not a recommended way of installing drivers, please do not do that
[16:27] <Lunarizing> Did I ask clearly or was it just lost in the mayhem?
[16:27] <Daisuke-Laptop> samba issue, right?
[16:27] <jansen> can i configure console*(terminal) to open with control+shift+C??
[16:27] <jansen> or not?
[16:27] <Daisuke-Laptop> it was clear, but i eventually stopped using samba
[16:28] <xif> Pici: thanks, found it http://ubuntu.wordpress.com/2007/06/04/typing-break-and-workrave-keep-rsi-at-bay/
[16:28] <ikonia> jansen: don't see why not
[16:28] <`Kermudge> Silly question if I may?  Is there a better irc client something on the order of Mirc?

[16:28] <ikonia> oops
[16:28] <ikonia> `Kermudge: try xchat
[16:28] <Daisuke-Laptop> jansen: should be able to.  system > preferences > keyboard shortcuts

[16:28] <`Kermudge> Thanks ikonia
[16:28] <fwaokda> Which version of Ubuntu 8.04 should I download?  My laptop is a "HP dv6436nr" chip is a AMD Turion 64x2
[16:28] <Lunarizing> Thats cool.  Is there a network channel????
[16:29] <ikonia> fwaokda: just use the desktop 32bit install
[16:29] <ikonia> fwaokda: unless you have specific reasons for 64bit
[16:29] <Lunarizing> I'll go looking.  Thanks anyway people.  keep up the good fight.
[16:29] <fwaokda> k alternate or regular?
[16:29] <ikonia> fwaokda: regular should be fine
[16:29] <jansen> daisuke.. can you tell the temrinal commando for that?
[16:29] <ikonia> jansen: there isn't one

[16:29] <Ontolog> anyone know when Perl 5.10 is coming to Ubuntu?
[16:30] <Ontolog> Perl 5.10 is Balls Mahoney from what I hear
[16:30] <eclipse23> im using geforce2 go...problem is cannot get the screen to load on my laptop monitor, plus i cant get the visual effects running. tried the solution on ubuntuforum but didnt work
[16:30] <ikonia> Ontolog: it's not in the development repo - so I do'nt expect anything soon
[16:30] <Ontolog> ikonia: aww shucks :(
[16:30] <Daisuke-Laptop> jansen: it's just in the menus, system > preferences > kayboard shortcuts.  there's already an entry for terminal, but it's disabled by default.  just select the disabled, give it your key combo, and you should be set
[16:30] <ikonia> Ontolog: don't quote me on that, but it doesn't look like anytime soon
[16:31] <jansen> i know.. but i want to add my personal folder to control+ALt+w... the terminal i just got it.. =[[ does it have a way?
[16:31] <spitz> any idea how i can print a "powered by" notebook sticker ? i have svg graphics. shall i enter the dimensions manually or the can be printed somehow "automatically" ?
[16:31] <Ontolog> ikonia: looks like I'll have to install from build and install it myself but I hate having multiple versions of a programming language on my computer
[16:31] <ikonia> Ontolog: thats understanable

[16:34] <ikonia> eclipse23: that card is quite old and probably won't run visual effects
[16:34] <Byron1> eclipse are you using restricted driver?
[16:35] <ikonia> eclipse23: you also need the legacy package for that card, rather than the current
[16:35] <eclipse23> yes...i tried installing using restricted driver
[16:35] <jonaskoelker> question: I hear that .XCompose uses the adobe standardised glyph names.  However, "<Multi_key> <O> <O>: circleplus" seems to have no effect.  Does the circelus characters exist?  I want to produce the equivalent of \oplus, how can I do that?
[16:36] <kaze> no it doesn't
[16:36] <jonaskoelker> ... because logic is the \lor of the \land ;)
[16:36] <eclipse23> i downloaded the driver for my card. its not listed under legacy.
[16:36] <ikonia> eclipse23: really, I would have expected the Gf2 card to be as some of the GF4 cards are
[16:37] <BLACKthroat> can anyone help me get my remote working with mythtv?
[16:37] <ikonia> eclipse23: I'd still expect that card to be a bit old to deal with visual effects very well
[16:37] <sipior> jonaskoelker: may be that the character doesn't exist in the font you are using
[16:38] <eclipse23> i suspected that the card is too slow for visual effects. but what about the screen output?
[16:38] <matt_> can anyone help me, i don't know how to install .tar.gz files
[16:38] <ikonia> matt_: what software do you want to install

[16:39] <ikonia> eclipse23: can you explain that a little better please.

[16:41] <ikonia> sakuramboo: don't compile it - use the version in the repo
[16:41] <Jack_Sparrow> sakuramboo Please post a description of a problem when posting a link.
[16:41] <jonaskoelker> .. in particular in xterm, but gedit (or other programs) will do
[16:41] <sakuramboo> ikonia, im trying to develop it, i HAVE to compile it
[16:41] <bosanac> Hello people i need MSN Messenger for Linux Ubuntu 7.10 can some1  help me ?
[16:41] <mgolisch> matt_: extract it using tar or gnomes archiver(file-roller)
[16:41] <Byron1> eclipse23 what happens when you only use laptop?
[16:42] <ikonia> sakuramboo: then the error output should be quite straight forward
[16:42] <sakuramboo> Jack_Sparrow, my problem is the same exact problem
[16:42] <matt_> ok, what now?
[16:42] <mgolisch> matt_: then downlaod the vmware any-any patch to make it compile against your kernel then follow the usualy installation instructions
[16:42] <eclipse23> if i only use laptop it doesnt appear. if i log off its appears
[16:42] <rouini> ikonia:i use anther one but of motherboard not work
[16:42] <ikonia> Ronie: what makes you think it doesn't work, can you see it in network manager
[16:42] <Jack_Sparrow> sakuramboo Did you post a description of the problem referenced by your link?
[16:43] <bosanac> faggots !
[16:43] <bosanac> i need a msn!
[16:43] <mgolisch> matt_: so you donwload the any-any patch read its install description, i think its only one perl script you have to run, after that just start the vmware installation
[16:43] <sakuramboo> ikonia, but, all the code is right, it compiled perfectly fine in fedora
[16:43] <Byron1> eclipse23 when only using laptop do you get to logon screen?
[16:43] <sakuramboo> when i copied the source to ubuntu and compiled, i got that

[16:44] <eclipse23> Byron1:i do get to logon. but nothing appears. if i connect a monitor the screen appears on the ext.monitor

[16:44] <ikonia> sakuramboo: as I said if your developing it, this should be reasonably staight forward

[16:45] <hwilde> i'm trying to make a custom motd, is there something that resets it to default?
[16:45] <sipior> jonaskoelker: you'd need to install a font viewer. have a look in the package archives and see what turns up. i'm almost positive that circleplus won't be in the default terminal font.

[16:46] <hwilde> ikonia, /etc/motd and /etc/motd.tail
[16:46] <Pici> hwilde: You just need to edit motd.tail
[16:46] <hwilde> Pici, I did that and now it's back to default ubuntu disclaimer!
[16:46] <ikonia> hwilde: the bootmisc.sh script updates it on each boot
[16:46] <Byron1> eclipse23 have you looked at screens and graphics?
[16:47] <Tyczek> hi, mpd stops playing after X restart, it should play?
[16:47] <weix> hey i just 'sudo aptitude install phpmyadmin' and i really dont know where it installed it to how do i find its url on my server because i've tried http://localhost/phpmyadmin and i cant find it.
[16:48] <ikonia> weix: what happens if you visit http://localhost
[16:48] <jonaskoelker> sipior: ... well, logicalor and logicaland are in `fixed' (the xterm font)
[16:48] <sakuramboo> ikonia, all the deps check out, and i only started developing it not too long ago, actually, im forking it because the original developer quit
[16:48] <weix> ikonia, hey again,  i get an "It Works!" page
[16:48] <ikonia> sakuramboo: didn't' say it was a dep, look at the libglade versions
[16:48] <eclipse23> byron1:screens and graphics, i tried that. doesnt seem to work. i mean isnt the primary display suppose to be on my laptop rather than the ext monitor. anyway i tried that and restarted but the screen does not appear in my laptop by default
[16:49] <sakuramboo> that is a dep, and yes, 2.0, its good
[16:49] <ikonia> weix: ok, so it should be http://localhost/phpmyadmin or http://myphpadmin, whatever the url is
[16:49] <weix> ikonia, i can get to my ebox page but that doesent do phpmyadmin
[16:49] <ikonia> sakuramboo: the de is met - not "good"

[16:50] <hwilde> Pici, ikonia, what about X11 forwarding,  it gives me    "Error: no display specified"
[16:50] <weix> ikonia, i have this happen every once in a while neither url works but apt says its installed (I just threw in localhost rather than the localip kus its simpler)
[16:50] <ikonia> sakuramboo: again - look at the version it installs from the repo, look at the version it's linked against, and look at the version you've downloaded and developing against
[16:50] <ikonia> must dash
[16:51] <Byron1> eclipse23 Is the secondary screen button accessible?
[16:51] <weix> ikonia, is there a way i could find out where the install went and put it?
[16:52] <hwilde> X11 forwarding help     Error: no display specified

[16:56] <Ganandorf> it keeps rebooting when i try to re install it
[16:57] <hwilde> Ganandorf, at the end of hte install you have to take the cd out and it reboots
[16:57] <Speedy> Ganandorf,  are you booting to the cd?
[16:57] <weix> hwilde, but when i type in http://url.com/phpmyadmin it doesent return anything besides a 404
[16:57] <bazhang> Ganandorf, you want to reinstall? boot from the cd not the hdd
[16:57] <enigma22> bazhang, vmware server, rdesktop and seamlessrdp
[16:57] <Speedy> weix,  phpmyadmin needs to be in the webroot
[16:57] <Speedy> like localhost/phpmyadmin
[16:57] <bazhang> enigma22, you are matt?
[16:57] <hwilde> weix, does http://url.com  work ?
[16:57] <enigma22> yes
[16:57] <bazhang> enigma22, I just gave you three links
[16:57] <weix> hwilde, yep i get the default it works page from apache2
[16:57] <Speedy> hwilde,  his problem is that phpmyadmin isnt in the webroot
[16:58] <enigma22> none of them helped really
[16:58] <hwilde> weix, put phpmyadmin one level above that
[16:58] <weix> Speedy, so should i just copy that file thats in /var/lib/phpmyadmin???
[16:58] <Ganandorf> i boot from cd and choose install then the orange thing moves side to side for a while then the computer reboots and it boots from cd again
[16:58] <bazhang> enigma22, what errors did you get when using those links--please specify
[16:58] <hwilde> Ganandorf, check cd for defects
[16:58] <Ganandorf> its not even running from the live cd when i choose tryout with out any change to system
[16:58] <Speedy> weix,  i'd copy phpmyadmin into your www folder
[16:58] <Ganandorf> ok
[16:58] <enigma22> they didnt tell me how to install files pcked like this
[16:58] <hwilde> Speedy, he's going to need to install it the right way or al the paths will be off
[16:59] <Speedy> hwilde,  not true
[16:59] <weix> Speedy, ill give that a try ill just cp it so it leaves a copy in the other dir..
[16:59] <bazhang> enigma22, you need to pay close attention
[16:59] <Ganandorf> well the reason i want to reboot is i get this error message now This is a major failure of your software management system. Please check for broken packages with synaptic, check the file permissions and correctness of the file '/etc/apt/sources.list' and reload the software information with: 'sudo apt-get update' and 'sudo apt-get install -f'.

[16:59] <enigma22> bazhang, i dont understand though

[17:09] <Lunarizing> I've tried installing Samba, but it'll crash every time I try to run it.
[17:09] <benpicco_> Hi, is there some way to skip the mirror-server search during the alternative (server) installatoion?
[17:09] <jonaskoelker> Lunarizing: visudo is the wrong thing, use "gksudo gedit /etc/smb.conf"
[17:09] <Jack_Sparrow> benpicco_ unplug network connection
[17:10] <Lunarizing> That brings up an empty file.
[17:10] <benpicco_> Jack_Sparrow: still no change
[17:10] <jonaskoelker> Lunarizing: please paste the output of "ls -l /etc/smb.conf" (it should only be one line)
[17:11] <kitche> jonaskoelker: isn't it /etc/samba/smb.conf or no since ubuntu splits config files up
[17:11] <Jezz> how can i use apt-get install trough a proxy?
[17:11] <Jack_Sparrow> benpicco_ no change to what?
[17:11] <Lunarizing> is that an i or an L?
[17:11] <jonaskoelker> kitche: probably, that's why I'm polling (again) for an ls :)
[17:11] <matrix> anyone have problem with wifi after upgrading to 8.04
[17:11] <jonaskoelker> Lunarizing: try gksudo gedit /etc/samba/smb.conf
[17:11] <bazhang> matrix, which card
[17:11] <Jezz> internet works but synaptic and apt-get dont tru proxy
[17:11] <jonaskoelker> Lunarizing: are you reading some tutorial or such that instructs you to edit the file?  If so, please give a link
[17:11] <matrix> hawking dish
[17:11] <benpicco_> Jack_Sparrow: it had no internet connection when it started, as it lasted that long i finally connected it and entered namesever in resolv.conf - i get wget google and stuff, but install is stuck in trying to acces the mirror server
[17:12] <matrix> z1211
[17:12] <bazhang> matrix, check the chipset on that
[17:12] <Ayabara> I have only Ubuntu on my laptop atm, but I'm installing Vista and running dual boot. Can I expect grub and stuff to work like it should after installing, or will Vista overwrite stuff?
[17:12] <jonaskoelker> Jack_Sparrow: so the only difference is that gksudo sets HOME=/root?  Then I'd actually recommend using sudo---it works better with emacs :D
[17:12] <bazhang> Ayabara, the second
[17:12] <Lunarizing> That worked Jonaskoelker.  THANK YOU ALL.
[17:13] <Jack_Sparrow> jonaskoelker THere is more of a difference than that, and sudo for gui is NEVER a good idea
[17:13] <gligan> hi all
[17:13] <jonaskoelker> Lunarizing: you're welcome.  Enjoy hacking your samba config ;)
[17:13] <matrix> ok thanks bazhang
[17:13] <Flannel> jonaskoelker: Using sudo with graphical programs can lead to a situation where the user in unable to login due to permission problems
[17:13] <Ayabara> bazhang, hm. and how long and painful is the way back to a working grub?
[17:13] <jonaskoelker> ah..
[17:13] <Lunarizing> I can handle the config.  I've done it on my Fedora box.  It's FUN FUN FUN.
[17:13] <bazhang> Ayabara, not very
[17:14] <Jezz> how can i use apt-get trough proxy?
[17:14] <matrix> 7.1 i had no problems after upgrade 8.04 did not see card
[17:14] <jonaskoelker> Jezz: what kind of proxy?
[17:14] <Jezz> isa

[17:25] <jean-francois219> it write few megabyte then some kind of system freeze, 15 sec everything ok, then contine
[17:26] <weix> Speedy, turns out phpmyadmin wasnt included in the /etc/apache/apache.conf file
[17:26] <puma1> but if i add and alias then nothing happens and ndiswrapper must be started manualy
[17:26] <weix> ikonia, turns out phpmyadmin wasnt included in the /etc/apache/apache.conf file
[17:26] <Speedy> weix,  doesnt need to be
[17:26] <Speedy> weix,  unless your using it outside of the webroot
[17:27] <Speedy> which i wouldnt do for security reasons
[17:27] <sipior> Rachel84: it's probably safe to ignore the error to finish the fsck, but i'd make sure my backups were current :-) might try re-running fsck to see if it persists, and keep an eye on the filesystem to see if other strangeness develops.
[17:27] <weix> Speedy, its the way ubuntu try's to install it (outside webroot)
[17:28] <weix> Speedy, i dont really know why but its kinda nice it keeps my webroot clean.

[17:30] <matrix> ok
[17:30] <hey_joe> no its the stock G4 ATI TNT card
[17:30] <keith_> dissent: there is also su, or if you are dead set on enabling it, there is a setting you can edit in a file (I forget which) to allow root to sign in. This is NOT recommended though.
[17:30] <The-Compiler> I need a INF for the Netgear PCI Adapter WG311v3 (for ndiswrapper), but the setup doesn't finish properly under wine, and cabextract does extract some WG311V2.INF files (.INF, .INF2, and so on), but they are all 0 bytes. So how can I get this inf?

[17:35] <sipior> ubottu is getting cleverer when dealing with repeated factoids...
[17:35] <Flannel> keith_: Because there are reasons Ubuntu does not use the root password; sudo accomplishes everything that root could.  And most people who think they want to use the root account are doing so because they don't know any better.
[17:35] <seanumen> ？
[17:35] <trakinas> but i think you can use sudo su to gain root privileges, right?

[17:36] <keith_> hwilde, Flannel: I am very aware of what sudo does. Having no root password is actually less secure isn't it? It allows single user sign on with no password.

[17:37] <bazhang> kermudge where did you get it from
[17:37] <hwilde> keith_, if you set the root password then someone can hack it.
[17:37] <jean-francois219> someone know why loop device lag while writing?
[17:38] <hwilde> keith_, if you don't set the root password then people have to use sudo which requires interactive login which is harder to hack
[17:38] <dury> hi there channel :)
[17:38] <sipior> hwilde: as opposed to your user account password, which defaults to allowing sudo for everything?
[17:38] <Flannel> keith_: If you're referring to single user mode, there's no way to properly protect a system from someone with physical access.  If you want to restrict that, you can set a grub password on those entries.  There are benefits to using sudo, and some drawbacks to using root.  And all the support in this channel is designed with a locked root account in mind.  Having one just causes problems with the support
[17:38] <dury> someone has skype installed
[17:38] <HexTasy> I need some help with a PowerPC install.
[17:38] <hwilde> keith_, sipior, i'm not going to argue the philosophy of sudo and root.  read the bot links

[17:38] <bazhang> HexTasy, what is the issue
[17:39] <sipior> hwilde: read it already, thanks.
[17:39] <hwilde> sipior, the point is it's harder to hack interactive sudo login than ssh root@yourip
[17:39] <dirtyhand> if I dont have sudo access to a VM and have only write rights in my home dir, what should I set the --prefix too when I compile binaries? (like ruby)

[17:39] <ramiel77> if i want to get a new computer and run ubuntu on it, what's the best kind of computer to run ubuntu on?
[17:40] <keith_> Flannel: understandable. I'll keep that in mind in the future.
[17:40] <HexTasy> well, I let it install however it wants.  use full disk and everything.  it's a SCSI machine btw.  So anyways, after the install, it just doesn't do anything.  I tell it to boot from the linux partition and it just hangs at bootstraping process 1 :(
[17:40] <hwilde> ramiel77,  www.dell.com/open     ubuntu preinstalled!!

[17:41] <Budi_cakep_fz> hai lucky
[17:42] <hey_joe> for some reason I CANNOT get my ATI TNT card to work with 8.04 on powerpc... i mean it works, but i can't install any drivers that will work, and i cannot change the screen resolution at all.. even after editing xorg.conf SEVERAL times.. is there some sort of default generic driver i can use for ppc that will allow me to switch to 1280x1024?
[17:42] <sewmyheadon> thanks hwilde - trying it now . . .
[17:42] <diaz1983> hallo leutz...
[17:42] <hwilde> !fglrx | hey_joe
[17:42] <HexTasy> no ideas? :(
[17:42] <kitche> hwilde: umm yeah to bad it's a TNT card which ati does not support anymore so that will not work
[17:42] <akka-chilla> i have a really strange problem with my ubuntu 8.04 . my sound configuration is OK but when I start an mp3 with any player (i have tried Amarok, Banshee, Rhytmbox already) i dont get any sound
[17:42] <hwilde> !fixgrub | HexTasy
[17:43] <hey_joe> hwilde... stop fucking doing that.. you obviously have no idea what the fuck you are doing... its PPC.. none of the binary drivers work on our architecture.
[17:43] <hwilde> !attitude | hey_joe
[17:43] <hey_joe> if you don't have an answer..
[17:43] <bazhang> hey_joe, watch the language
[17:43] <hey_joe> then don't answer.
[17:43] <hwilde> hey_joe, buy a supported card and move on quit wasting our time repeating yourself
[17:43] <keith_> Flannel: so are we resolved that "sudo bash" is the best alternative without setting a password or enabling root access if sudo isn't doing the job? lol
[17:43] <sewmyheadon> hwilde "ps -ef | grep wpa"  returns "eric     16503 15408  0 09:42 pts/3    00:00:00 grep wpa" what does that tell me
[17:43] <`Kermudge> ok got it here xhat-gnome.nav1.cx/
[17:43] <kitche> hwilde: looks like you didn't even pay attention to what he said it's PPC
[17:43] <akka-chilla> i am a noob in Linux and i have a really strange problem with my ubuntu 8.04 . my sound configuration is OK but when I start an mp3 with any player (i have tried Amarok, Banshee, Rhytmbox already) i dont get any sound. Please HelP!
[17:44] <bazhang> `Kermudge, delete it
[17:44] <hwilde> kitche, he's been saying it over and over for the last three hours
[17:44] <`Kermudge> ok
[17:44] <hwilde> sewmyheadon, that tells you wpa supplicant is not running
[17:44] <bazhang> `Kermudge, open a terminal
[17:44] <Flannel> keith_: No.  `sudo -i` is how you get a root prompt should you want one.
[17:44] <kitche> hwilde: and yet you kept pointing him to fglrx which does not work on PPC architure
[17:44] <lartza_> How do I get ET to work? It wont download maps or mods.
[17:44] <bazhang> `Kermudge, type this: sudo apt-get install xchat
[17:44] <`Kermudge> terminal server client now open
[17:45] <HexTasy> uhh, I don't think ubuntu uses grub for PPC
[17:45] <sewmyheadon> hwilde - thanks do you know the command to manually run it?  I'm trying to confirm a frustrating bug in Hardy with my wireless?
[17:45] <HexTasy> that'd be kinda dumb
[17:45] <lartza_> And in terminal it says ^5PunkBuster Client: Not Connected to a Server
[17:45] <bazhang> `Kermudge, that will install it
[17:45] <lartza_> M yinternet won't work!
[17:45] <keith_> Flannel: So it has a similar effect, but actually simulates a login?
[17:45] <lartza_> Help me please.
[17:46] <`Kermudge> brb dog wants out
[17:46] <lartza_> After closing Enemy territory
[17:46] <Jack_Sparrow> keith_ did you ever get that drive to mount?
[17:46] <hwilde> sewmyheadon,  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/WPAHowTo   towards the bottom it shows you the command  "  /sbin/wpa_supplicant -Bw -iath1 -Dmadwifi -c/etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf"
[17:46] <Flannel> keith_: right, if you don't want that, `sudo -s` will.  sudo -s is similar to sudo su, sudo -i is sudo su -, if my memory serves me.
[17:46] <sewmyheadon> Thanks hwilde.  I'll give it a shot.  I appreciate your time
[17:47] <HexTasy> so nobody knows much about PPC ubuntu I take it?
[17:47] <jean-francois219> why my loop device stop writing for about 15sec then keep going for few meg then again? anyone have an idea?
[17:47] <keith_> Jack_Sparrow: I'm going to mess with it when I get home.
[17:47] <bazhang> HexTasy, a bit; what is the question
[17:47] <sipior> HexTasy: i was under the impression that PPC ubuntu had been discontinued. is that not the case?
[17:47] <bazhang> sipior, nay
[17:47] <HexTasy> it's  not discontinued, it's just not under LTS
[17:47] <HexTasy> it's community now
[17:47] <Flannel> sipior, HexTasy, its not officially supported, but the community supported version is still alive and kicking
[17:48] <HexTasy> im aware.
[17:48] <bazhang> HexTasy, waiting for a question
[17:48] <sipior> that's good to know, i've got this mac mini sitting around somewhere...
[17:48] <Jack_Sparrow> keith_ k..  I added lines for all your other partitions in case you want to mount those, just sudo mkdir for each (matching what is in the mount point of fstab)
[17:48] <hwilde> Ubuntu 6.10 was the last officially supported PowerPC version of Ubuntu
[17:48] <HexTasy> but it won't boot after install. lol.  it just chills at the boot screen
[17:48] <bazhang> HexTasy, put my nick in your answer if you want help
[17:48] <faileas>  sipior: i thought nearly all mac minis were intel?
[17:48] <hwilde> HexTasy, did you try irqpoll option in grub
[17:48] <HexTasy> if I go to the OF boot menu and tell it to boot the linux partition, it just hangs at bootstrap phase 1/2
[17:48] <sysadmin> anybody: i have a message saying printer is disabled, how do i re-enable?
[17:48] <sipior> faileas: no, the first two generations were PPC
[17:49] <hwilde> !cups | sysadmin
[17:50] <keith_> Jack_Sparrow: I noticed that, thanks. Why does hardy/gnome not mount automatically anymore?
[17:50] <Flannel> hwilde: I imagine you have, but have you checked the yabootstuff on the wiki? https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PowerPCFAQ#head-7e0d9b980507337bf9c80768cabb8396a552335c and  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/YabootConfigurationForMacintoshPowerPCsDualBoot
[17:50] <keith_> Why is there still not a good, easy way to edit fstab without opening it manually?
[17:50] <hwilde> keith_, it will automount if you put it in fstab
[17:50] <Jack_Sparrow> keith_ I dont know what happened in your setup.. Just how to fix it
[17:51] <HexTasy> baking: if I go to the OF boot menu and tell it to boot the linux partition, it just hangs at bootstrap phase 1/2
[17:51] <hwilde> Flannel, I would look but that would give me nightmares
[17:51] <Jack_Sparrow> keith_ gksudo gedit /etc/fstab just isnt that hard
[17:51] <keith_> Jack_Sparrow, hwilde: The problem is not unique to me.
[17:51] <`Kermudge> ok bazhang back.
[17:51] <unimatrix9> hi there you all
[17:51] <jean-francois219> ok ill see with linux guys as nobody seem to know about loop ;-)
[17:51] <hwilde> keith_, if the drives were there when you installed ubuntu from the cd they would be automounted.   if you would add them to fstab they would be automounted
[17:52] <bazhang> `Kermudge, type in terminal sudo apt-get install xchat
[17:52] <HexTasy> bazhang: if I go to the OF boot menu and tell it to boot the linux partition, it just hangs at bootstrap phase 1/2
[17:52] <unimatrix9> where can i find the jpeg of the front of the 8.04 cdrom?
[17:52] <keith_> hwilde: They were there when I installed.
[17:52] <`Kermudge> under what programs?
[17:52] <bazhang> HexTasy, this is using yaboot?
[17:52] <unimatrix9> for a presention
[17:52] <bazhang> `Kermudge, in gnome-terminal
[17:52] <hwilde> unimatrix9, I like this image   http://feeblemind.tuxfamily.org/galerie/final/ubuntu-wallpaper/ubuntu-1280x1024.png
[17:53] <HexTasy> bazhang: I would assume so, from the PPC 8.04 live CD
[17:53] <`Kermudge> This thing says terminal server client?
[17:53] <unimatrix9> you know the circle of happy ubuntu users
[17:53] <bazhang> HexTasy, you md5 that iso?
[17:53] <HexTasy> aye

[17:55] <bazhang> AaronMT, getdeb.net maybe
[17:55] <dury> ddrriissee: do you know how to reconfigure skype in ubuntu

[17:57] <cypha> aaronMT = aaronH?
[17:57] <dury> gessss

[17:58] <bazhang> `Kermudge, in search type xchat
[17:58] <`Kermudge> found xchat
[17:58] <bazhang> `Kermudge, dont get xchat-gnome
[17:59] <fwaokda> can i use this setup for partitioning free space to install my ubuntu?:   Type for the new partition: Primary;  Location for the new partition: Beginning;  Use as: Ext3 journaling file system;  Mount point:  /home    ???
[17:59] <bazhang> `Kermudge, right click install; then apply changes
[17:59] <saint_> Question! I can't figure this out, is it even possible lol. But I want to take this command  ps -A | grep \b*.exe$ and take it a notch further by killing the processes that it results.
[17:59] <rootyrootyrooty> Did chan just freeze?
[18:00] <bazhang> rootyrootyrooty, nay
[18:00] <cypha> ok, nevermind

[18:00] <rootyrooty> h0ax: I don't want cmd line app, gui app, as I had before upgrade pls
[18:00] <rootyrootyrooty> oh
[18:00] <Award> Oops, had to ghost my nick back.  Question re-asked: Is it normal for hard links to work in the same directory, but fail across directories on a mounted nfs share?

[18:00] <trakinas> this is my cupsd.conf: http://pastebin.us/?show=d2e1b0308
[18:00] <bazhang> rootyrootyrooty, then audacious
[18:00] <rootyrootyrooty> Hi, how do I launch xmms2? When I type xmms2 into cmd line, it gives me a CLI not the GUI.
[18:00] <bazhang> `Kermudge, just xchat (not gnome)
[18:00] <rootyrootyrooty> bazhang? audacious I'm looking
[18:00] <`Kermudge> xcht   xchat common xchat guile what?
[18:01] <marion> How anyone had trouble with slow video after upgrading to Hardy?
[18:01] <bazhang> `Kermudge, xchat
[18:01] <fwaokda> Can someone plz help me with partitioning during my ubuntu 8.04 installation :(  ???
[18:01] <`Kermudge> Ok got yah
[18:01] <AaronMT> !partition
[18:01] <cypha> marion, i did, but it fixed itself after i had restarted
[18:01]  * LinuxKid is away:  What the hell do you want ? Go AwaY
[18:01] <bazhang> `Kermudge, right click install then apply changes
[18:01] <bazhang> !away > LinuxKid
[18:01] <rootyrootyrooty> marion: it's not compiz that's slowing everything down is it? For high-def vids, I watch them in nautilus/metacity, not compiz
[18:02] <fwaokda> ubottu, I don't need a partitioning program.  Its the step during the installation process.  I have vista on 60% of the hdd and I want to install ubuntu on the other 40% of free space
[18:02] <fwaokda> :(
[18:02] <marion> rootyrootyrooty: I am not using compiz
[18:03] <sipior> fwaokda: you'll need at least two partitions. one for the root filesystem, the other for swap
[18:03] <bazhang> fwaokda, then do it; the installer will handle it for you
[18:03] <sipior> fwaokda: i like to add another for /home, maybe one more for /boot, depending
[18:03] <soundray> fwaokda: have you already freed that 40%?
[18:03] <g0th> hi
[18:03] <bazhang> marion, what app
[18:03] <fwaokda> bazhang, I dont know what to put in some of the fields
[18:03] <fwaokda> soundray, yes
[18:03] <rootyrootyrooty> marion: k, then I have no advice to give, my tap is dry. just keep asking
[18:03] <g0th> I get a totally buggy behaviour if I try to access / mount / umount cifs shares
[18:03] <bazhang> fwaokda, which ones
[18:03] <g0th> if I access them using nautilus it works fine
[18:04] <g0th> who does nautilus access them and what could be a reason that mount.cifs fails?
[18:04] <fwaokda> bazhang, Type for new partition, location for the new partition, use as, and mount point
[18:04] <soundray> fwaokda: in that case, you can tell the installer to use the "Largest free contiguous space" and it'll partition it for you.
[18:04] <surajit> #scribus
[18:04] <bazhang> fwaokda, why not use the guided if that is hard for you
[18:04] <marion> bazhang: It is MPlayer when I am watching WMV or MPEG. Plays fine once, then I have to shut down and restart to play a second video.
[18:04] <fwaokda> bazhang, i musta missed that im backing up now to see sry
[18:05] <bazhang> marion, try vlc and see if that is slow too
[18:05] <fwaokda> ok found it thanks
[18:05] <marion> bazhang: What is vlc?
[18:05] <bazhang> np :)
[18:05] <unimatrix9> mplayer also has settings you could try , in preferences for video output
[18:05] <bazhang> sudo apt-get install vlc marion
[18:06] <unimatrix9> mplayer is maybe using the wrong output there
[18:06] <marion> bazhang: Installing vlc now.
[18:06] <`Kermudge> Thanks Baz Now to just set it up.  Really appreciate the help.  :)
[18:07] <bazhang> `Kermudge, give a yell if you need help
[18:07] <`Kermudge> Ok will do.
[18:07] <bazhang> :)
[18:07] <sewmyheadon> anybody using wicd on Hardy with an IPW2200 network interface?
[18:07] <Ovispain> hi everyone
[18:07] <g0th> How do I install an older version of mount.cifs?
[18:07] <g0th> in ubuntu hardy
[18:07] <sysadmin> anyone: i have a disabled printer, how can i restart? cupsenable asks for a password i can't seem to set...
[18:07] <bazhang> sewmyheadon, why not just nm? or cli
[18:08] <bazhang> g0th, not a good idea..but if that is what you want
[18:08] <g0th> bazhang: I want to check if maybe mount.cifs is buggy
[18:08] <bazhang> packages.ubuntu.com g0th
[18:08] <gaukas> hi, is there any autominer / autoclicker for ubuntu? My father has installed ubuntu on my laptop - and now I can't use autominer
[18:08] <g0th> since I get all kinds of errors with mounted cifs volumes but it works for nautilus
[18:08] <LaZerSaInT> Where's a good place to read about regular expressions?
[18:09] <sewmyheadon> bazhang: network manager didn't work well for me in Gutsy so I used wicd.  After the upgrade to Hardy, I'm having loads of wireless problems and I've read a ton, but am quite lost.
[18:09] <bazhang> #bash
[18:09] <bazhang> sewmyheadon, cli is better and faster
[18:09] <rootyrootyrooty> bazhang Thanks! Audalicious is working exactly. :D
[18:09] <marion> bazhang: I need to reboot. I will be back.
[18:09] <bazhang> :)
[18:09] <gaukas> hi, is there any autominer / autoclicker for ubuntu? My father has installed ubuntu on my laptop - and now I can't use autominer
[18:09] <bazhang> gaukas, what is that
[18:10] <gaukas> a programme which do automatic clicking
[18:10] <sewmyheadon> bazhang - I'd agree, although I'm not as comfy with it, especially when traveling.
[18:10] <bazhang> gaukas, for what purpose
[18:10] <corrosione> someone take a look at this..http://pastebin.com/m33aad67
[18:10] <soundray> LaZerSaInT: man grep has a good starter text. There is also a man regex
[18:10] <bazhang> sewmyheadon, what is the ap; open wep or what
[18:11] <gaukas> to do boring operation like clicking on one item one thousand times, to adnvance one level
[18:11] <sewmyheadon> bazhang: I'm connecting to a Linksys WRT54G using WPA Personal
[18:11] <Vlet> corrosione: is another window manager running?
[18:11] <gaukas> on a game called frugoscape
[18:11] <bazhang> gaukas, like a level editor? :)
[18:11] <Vlet> corrosione: try "sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop" first
[18:11] <corrosione> Vlet im using putty with xming to try to start icevm
[18:11] <soundray> LaZerSaInT: I agree with bazhang, too: #bash has great links in the topic
[18:11] <LaZerSaInT> How about this one... sudo find /media/sda1/* | grep \b*.jpg$ | xargs copy (what do I put here?)
[18:11] <bazhang> sewmyheadon, let me get you a decent cli guide
[18:11] <gaukas> don't know what a level editor is
[18:11] <sewmyheadon> I think I'm experiencing a bug where WPA supplicant won't load reliably on boot.
[18:12] <bazhang> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=571188 sewmyheadon
[18:12] <gaukas> but it does the boring things for me - like clicking on the same place several times - for instalnce while I'm a sleep
[18:12] <g0th> bazhang: hmm it depends on an earlier version of samba common, how can I automatically downgrade all packages such that it installs?
[18:12] <peterkls> hello, has anyone had any troubles with wireless network cards in ubuntu 8.04, 64 and/or 32 bit?
[18:12] <LaZerSaInT> I see how you do xargs with results that don't require focus, but how do I do it.. where cp requires a filename?
[18:12] <sewmyheadon> Thanks bazhang - looking at it now.
[18:12] <corrosione> vlet sudo: /etc/init.d/gdm: command not found
[18:12] <MaxGQC> does anyone knows how to prevent xserver-xgl to use Mesa drivers instead of Ati ?
[18:13] <bazhang> g0th, without irretrievably breaking things?
[18:13] <sewmyheadon> peterkis: yes, yes, yes.  IPW2200 giving me fits
[18:13] <eduard> what is .sh files?
[18:13] <g0th> bazhang: hmm what would you suggest I do?
[18:13] <eduard> how can i install it/
[18:13] <bazhang> eduard, which file
[18:13] <gaukas> peterkls, when I installed hardy on my laptop compaq 6910 p everything worked out of the box for the first time ever
[18:13] <peterkls> i have problems with all wireless cards. i can see my network but will not connect :|
[18:13] <g0th> bazhang: it seems to work fine over nautilus / gnomevfs
[18:13] <gaukas> peterkls, Have you isntalled hardy or just upgraded?
[18:14] <peterkls> gaukas yeah thats good. maybe im missing something.
[18:14] <eduard> bazhang, jdk?
[18:14] <peterkls> gaukas hardy full install
[18:14] <bazhang> eduard, do it via synaptic
[18:14] <g0th> bazhang: but if I use mount.cifs I get strange error messages, segfaults and also complete system freezes
[18:14] <peterkls> gaukas are you using 32 bit?
[18:14] <eduard> bazhang, k i'll try
[18:14] <bazhang> g0th, is it a bug? you checked launchpad yet?
[18:14] <gaukas> yes
[18:14] <eduard> bazhang, thanks
[18:14] <g0th> what is launchpad?
[18:15] <bazhang> eduard, :)
[18:15] <bazhang> !bugs | g0th
[18:15] <slackpipe> i just read something about a bug mounting cifs because of the new gnome
[18:15] <Vlet> corrosione: are you running ubuntu desktop?
[18:15] <bazhang> g0th, sounds like it might be a bug then
[18:15] <gaukas> yes, but I'm not experienced in troubleshooting - when I have had problems with wireless, I have gotten external help
[18:15] <peterkls> gaukas ive been using 64 bit, maybe i will try 32 just for the hck of it
[18:15] <g0th> hmm I still get the same error message:
[18:16] <peterkls> everything else in hardy works great, i love it
[18:16] <g0th> after I mount a lot of shares I suddenly get the message:
[18:16] <g0th> mount error 127 = Key has expired
[18:16] <g0th> Refer to the mount.cifs(8) manual page (e.g.man mount.cifs)
[18:16] <eduard> bazhang, my synaptic not working
[18:16] <askand> Hi! I frined of mine installed hardy on his laptop a while ago, and sometimes it completly freezes, ideas on what this could be?
[18:16] <gaukas> peterkls, Yes, 64-bit is not as plug and play as 32 bit - I installed 32 bit on an amd-prosesor - worked nice
[18:16] <bazhang> eduard, close add/remove first
[18:16] <corrosione> vlet server
[18:16] <QuickGold> what is the command line command to sync the box's system time?
[18:16] <peterkls> gaukas ok, i will try 32 and see how it goes. all my systems are amd chips
[18:16] <Vlet> corrosione: and do you have an X server on it?
[18:17] <Blinkiz> askand: You gotta explain more when it freezes
[18:17] <Blinkiz> askand: You gotta tell us your hardware setup
[18:17] <corrosione> vlet i have icewm
[18:17] <gaukas> peterkls, good luck
[18:17] <jbroome> amd makes both 32 and 64 bit chips
[18:17] <eduard> bazhang, it says dpkg is interrupted
[18:17] <garrett__> Hm.  I'm having a bit of trouble getting X to come up.  It was really garbled with the default 8.04 installer; it's a bit better now that I've set vga=791 (which also fixed some tty issues), but I can't seem to get it to display correctly.  The modelines I set in my xorg.conf (gdm -c /tmp/xorg.conf) don't seem to have any effect.
[18:17] <corrosione> Vlet i can run startx locally and it loads x
[18:17] <MaxGQC> does anyone knows how to prevent xserver-xgl to use Mesa drivers instead of Ati ?
[18:17] <QuickGold> what is the command line command to sync the system time?
[18:17] <Vlet> corrosione: well, be sure to kill X beforehand I suppose
[18:18] <jbroome> man ntp
[18:18] <bazhang> eduard, you want java right?
[18:18] <garrett__> I'm running a geforce4 440go and using the VGA out on my laptop to connect to an external LCD (bad CFL inverter in my laptop's panel)
[18:18] <eduard> bazhang, yeah
[18:18] <blue|palm> how do i turn on the bytecode interpreter for font anti-aliasing in hardy?
[18:18] <bazhang> eduard, close synaptic and open a terminal and type apt-cache search java
[18:18] <corrosione> Vlet when i log onto my server via putty and run 'sudo shutdown -r now' when i re-putty back in...all windows(x's) should be killed right?
[18:19] <marion> bazhang: Thank you. That fixed it!
[18:19] <bazhang> marion, :)
[18:19] <jbroome> corrosione: that will shut down your server
[18:19] <askand> Blinkiz: D-Link DWL-122 wireless card, integrated ATI IGP 340
[18:19] <corrosione> jbroome i know that, thats what i am saying...that will insure that no x's are running right?
[18:19] <Vlet> corrosione: not necessarily; X could be set to start at boot
[18:19] <eduard> bazhang, done
[18:19] <eduard> bazhang, then?
[18:20] <bazhang> eduard, you see the package you want?
[18:20] <corrosione> Vlet hmm, so in other words i should  run what to verify
[18:21] <Vlet> corrosione: ps aux | grep xorg

[18:21] <tripps> does anyone else have problems upgrading skype in ubuntu? the packages seems to be broken

[18:21] <eduard> bazhang, please
[18:21] <cypha> will ubuntu detect when i have my second monitor plugged in and not?
[18:21] <Blinkiz> askand: Related to the freezes I mean

[18:22] <askand> Blinkiz: I do not know, you told me to say my hardwaresetup..
[18:22] <Vlet> corrosione: yeap :-/
[18:22] <corrosione> Vlet would this be a bug?
[18:22] <tripps> bazhang, is there a fix? remove and reinstall?
[18:22] <Ayabara> anyone have a recipe for restoring grub after installing vista (dual boot)
[18:22] <Blinkiz> askand: I can't help you saying just "it freezes". You gotta be more specific.
[18:22] <bazhang> tripps, not sure, hang on a sec is this hardy
[18:22] <tripps> bazhang, or is there a way to force the png file that wants to overwrite skype-common from synaptic or apt-get?

[18:30] <Oli``> Blinkiz: I think it's Flash related - but I'm not certain
[18:30] <bgd_> Ikonz: 8.04, yes. Thank you
[18:30] <corrosione> what do you suggest
[18:30] <Pici> fyrfry: But if thats a theme, you usually dont have to uncompress it, you can just drag it onto the themes window.
[18:30] <Ikonz> you're welcome :P
[18:30] <Oli``> Blinkiz: possibly some sort of nvidia/compiz/flash mix

[18:36] <wysiwyg> @suthesan the fonts are configurable in system->preferences->appereance

[18:36] <Oli``> LaZerSaInT: it's a compressed HTML set... like a whole website in a single file - but it's a MS invention
[18:36] <mazzid> Random question and I thought maybe somebody in here could point me in the right direction.  Are there any self-employed swiss people in here?
[18:36] <levander> suthesan: 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg' will let you reconfigure X.  If you put the '-phigh' option (i think) on the end, it will try to automatically give you an optimal configuration for your hardware.
[18:36] <LaZerSaInT> Oli``: What's my chances of getting linux to see it?
[18:36] <j4w4> jack_Sparrow im linux ubnuntu noob, i clicked on the link you posted but not sure what to do now?

[18:36] <levander> suthesan: Without -phigh, it shows you step by step what it detected and lets you override what it found.
[18:36] <Jack_Sparrow> j4w4 Look at the changes I made and my notes about what to do
[18:37] <Oli``> LaZerSaInT: high, i'd imagine - just look for a chm reader - they're bound to exist
[18:37] <riotkittie> does ndiswrapper.ko not exist in /lib/modules/... until ndiswrapper is installed?
[18:37] <LaZerSaInT> Oli``: Ok I'm looking.

[18:38] <Swish> so I setup ubuntu 8.04 server with a very fancy shmancy RAID1 configuration.  I want to know if there are any downsides to this setup!  I had two physical hard drives and setup RAID1 using the debian manual partitioner/configurator during ubuntu installation:  created a 100MB RAID1'd /boot partition as /dev/md0, then the rest of the drives as /dev/md1 (also RAID1)

[18:39] <Jack_Sparrow> nixnoob there were some howto's on the web on how to spook IE to get it working
[18:39] <Jack_Sparrow> spoof
[18:39] <fwaokda> how do i do a apt search?
[18:39] <Swish> then I setup LVM on /dev/md1, and split that into three logical volumes.  2GB logical volume later formatted to ext3 for / filesystem.  1GB lv as swap.  rest of the drive (many gigabytes) as ext3 for /home

[18:40] <masterjamie> Hi, I'm struggling to get my ASUS card (possibly a WL-138gE or a WL-138G V2) to work with Ubuntu. I can use ndiswrapper just fine, but the issue comes when it tries to fetch the firmware. It aborts with error code 1.
[18:40] <Ociro> hola
[18:40] <corrosione> vlet http://pastebin.com/m66908c7
[18:40] <Darlok_Williams> I'm running Ubuntu 8.04 and whenever I try to logoff (either through System->Quit or with the panel applet) it takes a full minute or two before the logout dialog appears.  During that time, nothing else is usable; the system effectively locks up until then.  This only happens with my username; it responds immediately for other users.
[18:40] <suthesan> wysiwyg:
[18:40] <suthesan> xserver-xorg postinst warning: overwriting possibly-customised configuration
[18:40] <suthesan>    file; backup in /etc/X11/xorg.conf.20080520013845
[18:40] <spike42> hey, i'm trying to get lilo not to do a bios check every time i boot up
[18:40] <suthesan> why this?
[18:41] <frojnd> I've installed nvidia-glx-new package (since I have fx 5500) and when I run glxinfo I get: http:frojnd.no-ip.org/output/4.txt what is wrong with my X ?
[18:41] <levander> Darlok_Williams: I bet you got an errant process that can't be killed.  When you logout, the system tries to kill all your user processes.  I bet it's having trouble killing one.
[18:41] <fwaokda> When I try: "sudo apt-get install ndiswrapper-utils-1.9"  it tells me the package can't be found.  How can i "Find" the package?
[18:41] <spike42> fwaokda:
[18:42] <geek> fwaokda: just look for ndis wrapper stuff
[18:42] <spike42> try enabling multiverse repos
[18:42] <illustrissim> fwaokda, the command is apt-cache search <package>
[18:42] <geek> erm
[18:42] <cirkit> fwaokda: apt-cache search ndiswrapper
[18:42] <geek> even apt-cache search ndiswrapper
[18:42] <levander> fwaokda: Do you have the online repositories disabled in sources.list?
[18:42] <geek> opps ;p
[18:42] <geek> *oops.. damn
[18:42] <Darlok_Williams> levander: Well, this is happening before I even choose to logout.  I click "Quit" and nothing happens (the dialog asking whether I want to Logout, Switch Users, Restart, etc. doesn't show up for a good minute or two).  So this problem is occurring before any processes should be terminated.
[18:42] <rahim123> hi there, I'd like to know how to configure the programs that dbus launches when it starts

 !it giuseppe

[18:43] <levander> Darlok_Williams: You're not running out of RAM and having to use swap space when you are trying this are you?
[18:43] <Darlok_Williams> spike42: Ubuntu uses Grub by default... you may want to try asking in #lilo or another distro's channel that uses Lilo.
[18:43] <cirkit> spike42: I'm sure lots of people in here do. Ask.
[18:43] <garrett__> Hm.  If my external panel's working fine, why would it turn pink as soon as X starts?  mode issue?  or a driver issue?
[18:43] <spike42> i just want it to stop doing the bios check
[18:43] <ron> any one here setup a x10 mouse remote
[18:43] <suthesan> anyone help me with resolution
[18:44] <Darlok_Williams> levander: Not a chance.  I could have absolutely no open applications and it acts the same.
[18:44] <spike42> it takes forever
[18:44] <^ras-away> my keyboard keeps going out on me , it will be working fine then all of a sudden all the letter keys are either "ctrl" or "enter".  numpad keys seem to work ok
[18:44] <garrett__> I'm sitting in a 1024x768 fb terminal trying to get into X to finish off this install
[18:44] <spike42> and theres no #lilo
[18:44] <Darlok_Williams> suthesan: What is the problem?
[18:44] <rahim123> i am trying to stop system-tools-backends from loading, and it gets loaded by either /etc/init.d/dbus or /etc/init.d/hal
[18:44] <levander> Darlok_Williams: I'm out of guesses, have you checked syslog?
[18:44] <Darlok_Williams> spike42: I guessed... I don't know where you can get that support.
[18:44] <Ociro> but they speak English
[18:44] <Darlok_Williams> levander: How do I do that?
[18:44] <spike42> do you have any idea
[18:44] <Ociro> if not here that haria
[18:44] <matthew_> hey, now that I updated to hardy heron, I seem to be getting these random deadlocks, not often, but often enough to be annoying, anyone got any ideas?
[18:44] <spike42> ?
[18:44] <rajiv_nair> Ever since i installed hardy the system becomes really slow when a copy operation is being performed. This is true for both konqueror and nautilus Any ideas?
[18:44] <levander> Darlok_Williams: System -> Administration -> System Log
[18:45] <spike42> because theres suprisngly little help out there
[18:45] <levander> Darlok_Williams: or, in a terminal: 'less /var/log/syslog'
[18:45] <Ociro> yes
[18:45] <Darlok_Williams> levander: Ah... thank you.
[18:45] <frojnd> I've installed nvidia-glx-new package but my xorg is weired a little too small: http://frojnd.no-ip.org/output/5.txt
[18:45] <ras> anyone ever heard of that keyboard issue
[18:45] <frojnd> what could be wrong ?
[18:45] <Darlok_Williams> spike42: Well, I do believe that Grub is more widely used and therefore more widely supported.
[18:46] <levander> frojnd: I think xrandr is for situations like that.  Been a long time since I've had to tackle it.
[18:46] <bgd_> Does anyone know how to help me?
[18:46] <spike42> and grub is much better
[18:46] <erUSUL> !ask | bgd_

[18:47] <Scunizi> I seem to be able to open .docx files in Openoffice on Ubuntu but not on Windows using OO. Anyone know why? (other than the standard.. winblows stuff)
[18:47] <frojnd> levander: xandr ?
[18:47] <spike42> scunsi
[18:47] <Pici> Scunizi: Try #openoffice.org-users
[18:47] <spike42> its because ubuntu has a newer version of oo.o
[18:47] <sandsmark> how does ubuntu provide a pre-compiled nvidia-kernel-module? is it legal?
[18:47] <fwaokda> levander, some items are commented out in the sources.list
[18:47] <levander> frojnd: xrandr
[18:47] <Scunizi> Pici: thanks.. I'm on #openoffice.org now .. it's dead
[18:47] <frojnd> levander: what is this ?
[18:47] <levander> fwaokda: paste it
[18:48] <fwaokda> k 1 second
[18:48] <Darlok_Williams> levander: This is all I found for about the last time that I tried to logout:  http://paste.ubuntu.com/13326/
[18:48] <levander> frojnd: i think that's what you need, go read about it, i'm not sure
[18:48] <ras> i can get my keyboard to work again by deleting the /.gconf/desktop/gnome/accessibility directory and restarting , but its super annoying
[18:48] <TTTT31> pleas tell me , what;s  antivirus software you used for cubuntu?
[18:48] <Pici> TTTT31: None.
[18:48] <frojnd> levander: http://frojnd.no-ip.org/output/6.txt output of xrandr
[18:48] <Pici> !virus | TTTT31
[18:48] <ras> i'm not doing anything strange when the keyboard goes out
[18:48] <karl> is anyone familiar with a web based samba management tool? (and not SWAT)
[18:48] <Darlok_Williams> TTTT31: Ubuntu does not include any antivirus software by default...it is unnecessary :P
[18:48] <Scunizi> Pici: it's actually #openoffice.org  without the -users at the end.. .. Just FYI
[18:49] <j4w4> Jack_Sparrow if your still there, i still need help man, im a windows xp user, i dont know what this file is or what I am supposed to do with it, i looked at the pastebin and i executed the GEDIT and it opened the file up but still dont know what to change in it?
[18:49] <levander> frojnd: i don't know xrandr, it was just a suggestion, xvidtune is another program like that
[18:49] <Purplemess> Can anyone help me? I accidentially did a sudo shutdown -h 5 and forcily shut down the pc (removed the power supply). Now it gives me a "system will halt in 4 minutes" error when I try to log in and locks up when I try to reboot. The error keeps occuring, even after waiting a while.
[18:49] <Steve-cal> Does anyone know a good reference for finding out about core linux/ubuntu processes? I could google each process I'm interested in, but was wondering if anyone knows of a better way.
[18:49] <ras> it s just all of a sudden typing << or return
[18:49] <Pici> Scunizi: ah, maybe its #users.openoffice.org that I'm thinking of.
[18:49] <TTTT31> clamav?
[18:49] <ras> instead of letters
[18:49] <Purplemess> btw, I'm running hardy
[18:49] <spike42> jp, i can probably help yo

[18:50] <cannonball> Hi, I'm trying to rebuild a mutt deb from the mutt src deb with one of the patches that already exists in the debian/patches/mutt-patched directory.  I already used dch -i to increment the release number, now how do I tell dpkg-buildpackage to also apply that specific patch I want in there?
[18:50] <ras> anyone?
[18:50] <ras> keyboard help?
[18:50] <levander> fwaokda: You've got the online repositories enabled.  So, that's not the problem.  What happens when you do a 'apt-cache search ndis'?
[18:51] <Darlok_Williams> !patience | ras
[18:51] <s3a> is there a calculator i can download that can help me simplify fractions?
[18:51] <j4w4> i changed the properties of one of my windows xp partitions from FAT32 to NTFS and now ubuntu wont mount the partition anymore, I get the FSTAB in GEDIT right now, but dont know what to change?
[18:51] <ras> sorry np
[18:51] <Darlok_Williams> Wow... that's a rather rude ubottu factoid....
[18:51] <fwaokda> levander, it lists linux-ubuntu-modules-2.6.24-16-generic
[18:51] <InvisiblePinkUni> When I try to "mount a partition" it asks me a password, and below that there is a "Remember authorization" selected by default. How do I make it not selected by default?
[18:51] <SomeGuy9> umm, I just wanted to know, and I'd assume this is the case, but is ubuntu 8.04's firefox browser going to eventually get updated to the final 3.0 version when it's released?
[18:51] <SomeGuy9> I'm asking because I noticed RC1 was out for windows, but I don't have it in update manager yet
[18:51] <Darlok_Williams> j4w4: Pastebin your fstab... http://paste.ubuntu.com/

[18:52] <matthew_>  hey, now that I updated to hardy heron, I seem to be getting these random deadlocks, not often, but often enough to be annoying, anyone got any ideas?
[18:52] <levander> Darlok_Williams: Nah, people in this channel are just way over-sensitive.
[18:52] <jburd> SomeGuy9:  Yes, it will be.
[18:52] <Darlok_Williams> SomeGuy9: Yes, it will be.
[18:52] <SomeGuy9> ok
[18:52] <jburd> Darlok_Williams: Copycat.
[18:52] <SomeGuy9> thanks.

[18:52] <Darlok_Williams> jburd: Great minds... :)
[18:52] <s3a> can sum1 teach me to compile?

[18:52] <Darlok_Williams> !compile | s3a
[18:52] <ras> didn't mean to sound so impatient i asked last night in here and got no response , so didn't know if i was being noticed
[18:52] <Jack_Sparrow> j4w4 What part of the fstab I edited for you do you not understand
[18:52] <jburd> Great minds are copycats.  :P
[18:52] <fwaokda> levander, ok thats doing something

[18:53] <levander> fwaokda: There's a list of all the packages available to you stored on your system.  'apt-get update' is going out and seeing what packages are available.
[18:53] <Jack_Sparrow> j4w4 Replace yours with the one I wrote and mkdir like I said earlier

[18:54] <Darlok_Williams> InvisiblePinkUni: Are you using Ubuntu?
[18:54] <InvisiblePinkUni> Darlok_Williams: Sort of,

[18:57] <InvisiblePinkUni> Darlok_Williams: Ok, if in Ubuntu, I wanted to change the default behaviour, where do I look for the documentation.
[18:58] <InvisiblePinkUni> Darlok_Williams: Is it related to policy kit?
[18:58] <Darlok_Williams> InvisiblePinkUni: I already told you.... that has nothing to do with Ubuntu.  Ubuntu does not include that kind of behavior, default or not.  It was added by gNS and only they can help you change it.

[19:01] <matthew_> Ayabara: yes
[19:01] <j4w4> i just want to watch what 2 people are saying in channel, no one else :)
[19:01] <Pici> InvisiblePinkUni: Its been busy since Hardy's release.
[19:01] <erUSUL> j4w4: who are the people that knows what they're doing ??
[19:01] <soundray> mad_max02: it's the sensible choice, given that most graphics hardware won't display more, even in 32bit mod
[19:01] <soundray> mode
[19:01] <Darlok_Williams> ame: When running Vbox, it will be considered as /dev/hda
[19:01] <Darlok_Williams> I believe

[19:03] <mad_max02> soundray, I have a problem switching workspaces when playing warcraft in wine and in the output it says something about color depth

[19:04] <Ayabara> when the installer asks if I want to import settings, can I import a home folder from an external disk?
[19:04] <Radit> it just logged me back out again!

[19:04] <Jos_> I want to copy my thunderbird-profile from windows to ubuntu but I don't know where I have to put the files in ubuntu, can somebody help me plz? :)
[19:04] <Darlok_Williams> Radit: What are you doing JUST before it logs you out?
[19:04] <Pici> Radit: You need to provide more information or we cannot help you. We are not psychic.
[19:05] <j4w4> jack_sparrow I got the file open, ,how do i pastebin the file to you?
[19:05] <soundray> mad_max02: if you have graphics-switching related problems, I would try switching down to 16 rather than up to 32
[19:05] <Darlok_Williams> Pici: Speak for yourself :)
[19:05] <mad_max02> soundray, yeah but game works in 32bit. maybe I'll try 16 just for a change
[19:05] <Jack_Sparrow> j4w4 I have seen it, I have edited it.. replace yours with the one in the pastebin that I reworked for you earlier
[19:05] <Radit> the first time it logs out i ran pidgin, from then on it logs out automatically
 piuppp
[19:05] <j4w4> jack_Sparrow ok, ,will give a shot, thanks
[19:05] <Darlok_Williams> Radit: Is it immediately after logging in or after some time?
 e falso
[19:06] <Ayabara> if I copy all the contents of my home folder to an external drive, reinstall ubuntu, then copy it back, will I have permission problems (uid and stuff)?
[19:06] <soundray> mad_max02: by all means, try it all out. Just add a line    DefaultDepth 32   in /etc/X11/xorg.conf , section Screen
[19:06] <Radit> Darlok_Williams: after sometime, randomly, about 4 hours ago
[19:06] <AFarris01> Darlok_Williams: sorry about leaving before...  the trouble im having is launching apps from the applications> games menu...whenever I launch them from that menu or the shortcut toolbar, they have no sound, but if I launch them from the terminal or a desktop shortcut, sound works fine.... any suggestions?

[19:07] <Ayabara> Darlok_Williams, ok. but a copy followed by a recursive chmod to the new user _should_ do the trick?
[19:07] <jburd> cypha:  Yes.  One way is to use version control.

[19:08] <Darlok_Williams> Ayabara: After copying just running 'sudo chmod -R [username] [top-level path]' should do it.

[19:09] <mad_max02> so I'll search further
[19:09] <Ayabara> Darlok_Williams, ok
[19:09] <bullium> cypha: sudo cat /var/log/apt/term.log
[19:09] <Radit> i checked in terminal doing: last | less, the output user is my log-in name and reboot. could this be a virus?
[19:09] <cypha> what will that do bullium?
[19:09] <cypha> what's cat?
[19:09] <Darlok_Williams> Radit: It's not a virus.
[19:10] <cypha> concatenate?
[19:10] <lartza_>  Wolfenstein: Enemy Territory won't autodownload maps/mods and internet stops working for some time after using ET.
[19:10] <cypha> the hell does that mean
[19:10] <cypha> lol
[19:10] <bullium> basically echos the file to stdout (the screen)
[19:10] <matthew_> ayabara: is the external drive ext3, or is it an nfts drive? Cause with nfts, you don't need to worry about the permissions
[19:10] <Radit> then, why does it lot out randomly?
[19:10] <cypha> stdout is what the config files refer to as the screen?
[19:10] <jburd> cypha:   For a start you can do this, as a privileged user, in the terminal:   `git init .`    in the /etc directory.  Install the packages, and then do this in the terminal:    git diff
[19:10] <Pici> Radit: Have you made any changes recently, or let other people have access to your computer?
[19:10] <bullium> cypha: basically it displays the file on screen...scrolls to the end of the file
[19:10] <Darlok_Williams> Radit: Check your syslog (System -> Administration -> System Log)
[19:10] <burundi> have you got any page that talks about viruses in linux?
[19:10] <bullium> cypha: in your case it will be the apt log
[19:10] <Darlok_Williams> !virus | burundi
[19:10] <Pici> !virus | bullium
[19:11] <Ayabara> matthew_, it's ext3, but thanks for the thought :-)
[19:11] <Jack_Sparrow> !virus
[19:11] <jburd> Oh, and before you install the packages, do this too  git add .; git commit -m "initial commit"
[19:11] <Pici> bullium: sorry, mis-tab compelted.
[19:11] <cypha> bullium, u mean term.log?
[19:11] <jburd>  @ cypha
[19:11] <Darlok_Williams> Pici: I got the right name at least ;)
[19:11] <burundi> thanks
[19:11] <Radit> Darlok_Williums: allright, i'll check it
[19:11] <ringer> hi, just wondering how i get different wallpapers on different workspaces
[19:11] <bullium> cypha: yep
[19:11] <Darlok_Williams> Oh wait... no I didn't
[19:11] <bullium> cypha: sudo cat /var/log/apt/term.log | less
[19:11] <cypha> k, jburd
[19:11] <Jack_Sparrow> ringer /join #Compiz
[19:11] <Darlok_Williams> Yes, I did.... grr.
[19:11] <bullium> cypha: that will let you thumb through it...
[19:11] <Jos_> I'm not able to mount my windows partition in ubuntu, can somebody help me plz? :)
[19:11] <cypha> what's less do?
[19:11] <cypha> k
[19:11] <cypha> i see
[19:11] <cypha> cool
[19:11] <ringer> Jack_Sparrow: going there now thanks
[19:11] <Pici> cypha: Please don't use enter as punctuation.
[19:11] <Darlok_Williams> Jos_: What do you mean by "not able to?"  Are there errors?
[19:11] <Jos_> "you are not priviliged" he says
[19:12] <Radit> Dark_Williams: what do i look for?
[19:12] <bullium> cypha: I think that was my response the first time I did it too :)
[19:12] <Jack_Sparrow> k
[19:12] <cypha> =)
[19:12] <soundray> Jos_: use 'sudo mount ...'
[19:12] <Darlok_Williams> Jos_: Trying to mount from the terminal?  You need to use 'sudo' to do that.
[19:12] <phiqtion> !mythtv
[19:12] <bullium> cypha: did that answer your question?
[19:12] <jburd> lack of speel.   cypha:  git init;  git add .; git commit -m "Initial commit"; <install your packages here>; git diff
[19:12] <Jos_> how do I open terminal?
[19:12] <Jos_> (yes, I'm a noob :])
[19:12] <enterusername> damnit i didnt want to update mys ystem and apt-get install kde-devel is making me update crap :)
[19:12] <s_> 432645548
[19:13] <jburd> Jos_:  Main menu > Applications > Accessories > Terminal
[19:13] <matthew_> !terminal | Jos_
[19:13] <soundray> Jos_: Applications-Accessories-Terminal
[19:13] <shellclear> ola
[19:13] <Flannel> Jos_: either accessories > terminal, or alt-f2 then type 'gnome-terminal'
[19:13] <Darlok_Williams> Jos_: Applications -> Accessories -> Terminal
[19:13] <Darlok_Williams> yeah, what jburd said.
[19:13] <soundray> arrgh
[19:13] <cypha> jburd, what's the difference between what you are saying and what bullium is saying?
[19:13] <cypha> what's this term.log?
[19:13] <cypha> and what's the plugin u want me to download?
[19:13] <Darlok_Williams> Flannel: You know, now that you mention that, since I installed Hardy, Alt-F2 does nothing anymore.
[19:13] <matthew_> !sudo | jos_
[19:13] <jburd> cypha:  What bullium said will show you a log of whatever apt has been doing.  What I said will show you exactly which lines were changed and how in which files.
[19:13] <Radit> Dark_Williams: what should i look for?
[19:13] <Lr5> Vlet: do you use a fully upgraded Ubuntu 8.04?
[19:13] <soundray> enterusername: please use professional language in here
[19:13] <Flannel> Darlok_Williams: You should look into that, since it does work
[19:13] <ThRixXx> what's the "uiverse repostory's address ?
[19:13] <cypha> ahhh
[19:14] <cypha> cool
[19:14] <fwaokda> my wireless is asking for a passphrase... but I've checked in my wireless setup on the router and all it contains are keys and no passphrases.  How do i get around this?
[19:14] <Darlok_Williams> Radit: Any errors around the times when it logs you out.
[19:14] <balachmar> Does anybody know why I am still asked for my password if I want to run a sudo command even if I have put it into the sudoers file with NOPASSWD
[19:14] <cypha> k, let me scroll up and run those commands
[19:14] <cypha> one sec
[19:14] <Darlok_Williams> Flannel: I have a LOT of minor Hardy issues to look into lol
[19:14] <fwaokda> nvrmind I found a way around it '(
[19:14] <jburd> cypha:  Don't run them until you've learned about them.  :-)
[19:14] <matthew_> now that I updated to hardy, I seem to be getting these random deadlocks, and looking at syslog, I see: May 19 11:39:04 matthew kernel: [ 5485.687820] BUG: soft lockup - CPU#3 stuck for 11s! [events/3:18]
[19:14] <matthew_> This occurs a  few times, and I get a call trace after each one, I can pastebin one if anyone knows how to read it
[19:14] <soundray> ThRixXx: there isn't really such a thing. What are you trying to do?
[19:14] <Flannel> ThRixXx: same one as the main, but instead of "main" it's "universe" (there should be examples in your sources.list, and it may already be enabled)
[19:14] <jburd> cypha:  Learn a bit about git using the tutorial here: http://git.or.cz  first.  Then do it.
[19:14] <ThRixXx> trying to add the universe repostory!
[19:14] <Vlet> Lr5: sorry, was afk; no, I use a clean install
[19:15] <ThRixXx> to install ntfs-3g
[19:15] <Flannel> ThRixXx: Just go to software sources and check the box
[19:15] <Arcanedeath> I leik tried to get Ubuntu running on a dell laptop but it leik didn't support the wireless card and ndiswrapper didn't leik work.
[19:15] <Darlok_Williams> ThRixXx: You can do so easily with System > Administration > Software Sources
[19:15] <soundray> ThRixXx: tried System-Administration-Software sources?
[19:15] <ThRixXx> Uhmm see thats the problem.. im on kubuntu
[19:15] <soundray> !universe | ThRixXx
[19:15] <Lr5> Vlet: I have an upgraded version, with all the latest updates
[19:15] <Darlok_Williams> ThRixXx: Ask in #kubuntu
[19:16] <Flannel> ThRixXx: there's something similar on Kubuntu, it might be a menu inside of adept
[19:16] <Lr5> is there an x server error log somewhere?
[19:16] <marko-_-> how do i get the files from trash into the directories they were ?
[19:16] <Darlok_Williams> Flannel: Ahh... it is, I remember that.
[19:16] <ThRixXx> well im on a live cd
[19:16] <soundray> Lr5: /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[19:16] <Jos_> 'sudo mount windows' doesn't work
[19:16] <Flannel> ThRixXx: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories/Kubuntu
[19:16] <cypha> jburd, i did sudo apt-get install git-core
[19:16] <Darlok_Williams> ThRixXx: If you open up Adept, it's in one of the menus... Software Sources.
[19:16] <Jos_> where is my windows partition for terminal?
[19:17] <cypha> and then git init .
[19:17] <AJC_Z0> I'm looking for a simple CDDB update tool to update FreeDB. I've searched the list of apps on FreeDB, the package list (and tried a few with no success), the web for hints and have come up empty handed. Recommendations?
[19:17] <phiqtion> what is the best program to stream audio files to my xbox 360?
[19:17] <Jos_> it's not under / is it?
[19:17] <cypha> which just gave me some choices...and then i did git diff....and nothing happened
[19:17] <Vlet> Jos_: /media
[19:17] <Lr5> strange, nothing there
[19:17] <Darlok_Williams> Jos_: It will be under /dev/
[19:17] <MachinTrucChose> !p2p
[19:17] <soundray> Jos_: probably /dev/sda1 -- you need to mount it to a mountpoint
[19:17] <Jos_> thx
[19:17] <MachinTrucChose> !SoulSeek
[19:17] <jburd> cypha:  Read about git FIRST!
[19:17] <Radit> Darlok_Williams: how about this: CRON[12267]: PAM unable to dlopen(/lib/security/pam_smbpass.so)
[19:17] <marko-_-> does someone know ? ti's an emergency
[19:17] <soundray> !ntfs | Jos_
[19:17] <Radit> PAM [error: /lib/security/pam_smbpass.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory]
[19:17] <jburd> cypha: Don't just go executing commands.
[19:17] <Darlok_Williams> Radit: Sadly, I don't know much about the errors in syslog.... but it may give you a place to start.
[19:18] <tobi> hi
[19:18] <Flannel> phiqtion: check out icecast, in conjunction with mpd (or any other source client)
[19:18] <kaza_lite> now another problem...this time about connection to internet:D im running ubuntu on vmware and windows is my host OS. DHCP has been disabled in my router. and ubuntu has been given direct access to hardware for ethernet.
[19:18]  * soundray misses ubotu
[19:18] <cypha> i know, but i had already apt-gotten it
[19:18] <phiqtion> !icecast
[19:18] <Radit> Darlok_Williams: Thanks for your help..
[19:18] <tobi> how can i modify my resolution .. it only let's me choose between 800*600 and less
[19:18] <Vlet> !resolution | tobi
[19:18] <Darlok_Williams> tobi: Have you installed your binary drivers?
[19:19] <tobi> i installed the fglrx
[19:19] <Dvyjones> !broadcom > dvyjones
[19:19] <marko-_-> how do i get the files from trash into the directories they were ?
[19:19] <ThRixXx> there are 4 repostories
[19:19] <Radit> Darklok_Williams: sh*t!!!! When i searched google you know what came up? http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=791157
[19:19] <ThRixXx> no universe one
[19:19] <Jos_> thx for the help!
[19:19] <kaza_lite> ip of my windows is <IP_ADDRESS> and of router is <IP_ADDRESS>...so my dns+gateway is <IP_ADDRESS>. i've fixed added "nameserver <IP_ADDRESS>" in /etc/resolve.conf and set static ip and gateway in /etc/network/interfaces
[19:19] <Flannel> phiqtion: the package is icecast2, I don't believe we have a wiki page for it, so you'll just have to google around for using icecast with mpd.  There may be a tutorial on the forums
[19:20] <kaza_lite> but still cannot connect to internet...is there something else as well to configure?
[19:20] <tobi> ah thank you very much.. i think the link helps me .)
[19:20] <phiqtion> Flannel: thx
[19:20] <marko-_-> i found all my music map in the trash... like wtf
[19:20] <kaza_lite> with same congis...windows works fine
[19:20] <movedx> How do I modify the services running on a Ubuntu system from the console?
[19:20] <Flannel> !bum | movedx
[19:20] <Flannel> ThRixXx: What options are you given under the "third party" tab?
[19:21] <olskolirc> hey guys what program can i use to emulate a dvd burner on Gutsy please?
[19:21] <newbie> hello
[19:21] <movedx> olskolirc: emulate?
[19:21] <Flannel> ThRixXx: oh, thats where you add extra ones.  What options are you given under the "Kubuntu Software" tab?
[19:21] <newbie> could anyone help me?
[19:21] <movedx> olskolirc: K3B can "emulate" a burn.
[19:21] <newbie> since 5 weeks i use ubuntu 8.04 with gnome on my laptop and when i work my laptop freeze every 10-15min
[19:21] <bullium> is it possible to reset the keyboard without restarting the entire x session?
[19:21] <olskolirc> a virtual disk drive movedx like daemon tools for windoes
[19:21] <CoolAcid> Anyone from the kernel group online?
[19:22] <ThRixXx> ok now there is a dapper universe repostories, but when I search for ntfs-3g it doesnt find anything ?
[19:22] <movedx> olskolirc: interesting question
[19:22] <Flannel> ThRixXx: ah, this is dapper?
[19:22] <kaza_lite> any suggestions?
[19:22] <fyrfry> I am having a really tough time getting the theme found at <http://www.gnome-look.org/content/show.php/Monochromatic-black?content=70364> to be recognized.  What do I do?
[19:22] <ThRixXx> yes!!
[19:22] <erUSUL> movedx: you can install rcconf or use update-rc.d from comman line
[19:22] <amenado> ThRixXx-> i dont think ntfs-3g is supported in dapper
[19:22] <Pici> ThRixXx: ntfs-3g wasn't in dapper i believe.
[19:23] <matthew_>  now that I updated to hardy, I seem to be getting these random deadlocks, and looking at syslog, I see: May 19 11:39:04 matthew kernel: [ 5485.687820] BUG: soft lockup - CPU#3 stuck for 11s! [events/3:18]
[19:23] <matthew_>  This occurs a  few times, and I get a call trace after each one, I can pastebin one if anyone knows how to read it
[19:23] <ThRixXx> well I need to find a way to add it.
[19:23] <Flannel> ThRixXx: ntfs-3g didn't happen until feisty I believe.  Dapper does not have it.  Have you considered upgrading to Hardy?
[19:23] <Toluus> how can i make flashes to run smooth on ubuntu?
[19:23]  * soundray hears the souls shouting at ThRixXx from the depth: upgrade! upgraade!
[19:23] <Pici> ThRixXx: See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions/ThirdPartyNTFS3G
[19:23] <Lr5> Is there some way I could find out what causes the problem?
[19:23] <Shimatta> Afternoon...got a weird problem
[19:23] <broonsparrow> for some reason links in emails in Thunderbird no longer open in Firefox - I've just upgraded to 8.04. any ideas?
[19:23] <Flannel> ThRixXx: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions/ThirdPartyNTFS3G is how you can do it in Dapper
[19:23] <code4> hi
[19:23] <code4> hi
[19:23] <code4> hi
[19:23] <code4> hi
[19:23] <code4> hi
[19:23] <ThRixXx> see, i used ubuntu
[19:24] <code4> sorry
[19:24] <regeya> !ask | code4
[19:24] <ThRixXx> can't find cd, only found one with dapper kubuntu on
[19:24] <Flannel> ThRixXx: You can upgrade straight from Dapper to Hardy
[19:24] <harushimo> does ubuntu support dual monitors?
[19:24] <movedx> erUSUL: rcconf did it nicely, thank you.
[19:24] <jbroome> harushimo: yes
[19:24] <ThRixXx> im trying to copy protected files from windows to another windows partition
[19:24] <harushimo> I should I have no problem hooking up the second monitor? it should auto-detect?
[19:24] <ThRixXx> so im on a live cd
[19:25] <Shimatta> I installed Ubuntu 7.10 to an external drive to use as a test bed, then later installed it on my internal drive.  Now, when I boot from the external drive, it's drawing the user settings from the internal drive (different computer name, background, etc from the external drive).
[19:25] <fyrfry> I am having a really tough time getting the theme found at <http://www.gnome-look.org/content/show.php/Monochromatic-black?content=70364> to be recognized.  I have downloaded it, unpacked it into my ~/.themes but it's not in my "Change Desktop Background" thing.
[19:25] <tripps> about to commit to upgrade to hardy from gutsy . . . is there a way to "undo" and "save state" to rollback upgrade if something goes horribly wrong?
[19:25] <Flannel> ThRixXx: Alright, well, use that guide to install it, but be aware that its probably an older version of ntfs-3g, while it was still beta
[19:25] <harushimo> !dual monitor
[19:25] <Iraklis> hi, i have install iproute from sources how can i uninstall it now??
[19:25] <Flannel> !dualhead | harushimo
[19:25] <Myrtti> fyrfry: the two are unrelated
[19:26] <amenado> Shimatta-> look at your /etc/fstab file to see how it mounted /home if /home was a separate partitions and such
[19:26] <Maxi002> hi
[19:26] <soundray> harushimo: I think that factoid ^^ is outdated
[19:26] <Myrtti> fyrfry: you have to set the wallpaper separately
[19:26] <harushimo> okay
[19:26] <soundray> harushimo: are you on hardy?
[19:26] <esteth_> tripps, Backing up is really the only way to recover from a broken upgrade
[19:26] <fyrfry> myrtti no, I know that
[19:26] <harushimo> I'm gutsy gibbon right now but I'll reinstall Hardy
[19:26] <harushimo> it didn't work last time
[19:26] <fyrfry> myrtti change desktop background, then Themes, it's not there
[19:26] <tripps> esteth_, what is the best way to backup everything then to NAS?
[19:26] <Shimatta> amenado: I thought I had it on the same partition
[19:26] <ThRixXx> ok i will try thanks! you are extremely clever
[19:26] <fyrfry> myrtti it's not there with Human and Human-murrine, etc
[19:27] <Iraklis> hi, i have install iproute from sources how can i uninstall it now??
[19:27] <Lr5> Strange, it works on Firefox 2 so it has something to do with firefox 3
[19:27] <Maxi002> What is the name of the GAME in which a penguin surfs down a slope (down on the snow & ice) and tries to catch as many fish as possible?
[19:27] <soundray> harushimo: in hardy, you get a tool for configuring dualhead under System-Preferences-Screen Resolution
[19:27] <Jaymac> can someone please tell me how I change the paper size on firefox to A4?  Why is it US letter anyway?  Surely it should be A4 by default as there is only one country in the world that doesn't conform to international standards on paper sizes
[19:27] <Myrtti> fyrfry: chech that the directory structure is.themes/<themename>/gtk2.0
[19:27] <amenado> Shimata i gave you an advise to check and verify
[19:27] <Myrtti> Jaymac: it's dependant on your locale
[19:27] <esteth_> tripps, There's no "best" way to do anything really, but personally i'd probably just do a recursive copy of the whole filesystem to the NAS drive
[19:27] <harushimo> thanks soundray
[19:27] <Jaymac> In page setup if I change it to A4 and then print, it still prints in US letter format.... if I change it to A4, restart firefox and print, it is still in US letter
[19:27] <harushimo> thanks a lot everyone
[19:27] <Myrtti> Jaymac: if you set it to be US when you installed, then you have to do some magic to change it
[19:27] <Jaymac> Myrtti: I am in England, so it obviously isn't
[19:27] <Shimatta> amenado: sorry, currently have the internal drive out while the external is doing the upgrade.
[19:27] <Jack_Sparrow> fyrfry I usually drop the tar onto the theme manager , I dount manually unpack them
[19:28] <soundray> Jaymac: no rants please. Just 'echo a4 | sudo tee /etc/papersize'
[19:28] <esteth_> tripps, where "whole filesystem" excludes your any mounted media, like the NAS drive itself
[19:28] <fyrfry> myrtti it's .themes/themename/gtk-2.0 does that matter?
[19:28] <Iraklis> hi, i have install iproute from sources how can i uninstall it now??
[19:28] <tripps> esteth_, rgr
[19:28] <Jaymac> soundray: will that fix firefox?  every other application prints A4 fine
[19:28] <Myrtti> fyrfry: then it should work
[19:28] <fyrfry> jack_sparrow what do you mean?
[19:28] <DaveM_> what is the best way to programmatically remove an entry from the sources.list file (the CD/DVD ROM entry to be exact)?
[19:28] <amenado> Shimatta-> ask later when you have your setup ready, hard to keep guessing
[19:28] <ras> can someone tell me why /.gconf/desktop/gnome/accessibility/%gconf.xml is also located in /.gconf/desktop/gnome/  and /.gconf/desktop/gnome/accessibility/desktop/%gconf.xml ? why it begins with "%"
[19:28] <soundray> Jaymac: ah, so your original information was misleading
[19:28] <Flannel> DaveM_: Do you really need to do it programatically?
[19:29] <Jack_Sparrow> fyrfry To install a theme I darg the tar and drop it onto the open theme manager
[19:29] <Jaymac> soundray: no it wasn't I said that it was a firefox issue
