[08:50] <stefg> protestingrab: Now and then people were experiencing problems with the updated kernels, one of them being that the sound was 'muted'. Did you check that already?
[08:50] <protestingrab> well
[08:50] <ProN00b> GUARDiAN|nb, i suspect that uses the python client as its backend
[08:50] <protestingrab> I clicked on the sound icon
[08:50] <protestingrab> and put everything to max on volume control
[08:50] <protestingrab> there is a hissing sound comming from my speakers but no sound works
[08:51] <protestingrab> and the master volume is @ 100%
[08:52] <stefg> protestingrab: can you paste the outputs of 'lsmod' and 'dmesg' to http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/
[08:52] <Knag> hi

[08:54] <element`ubuntu> gatekeeper, ah cool, thanks.
[08:54] <arcade> Trying to install Dapper.  Ran into a problem.  I previously installed Breezy, but a 64bit version, so I need to reinstall from scratch to 'upgrade' to Dapper 32bit.  The problem is that although the installer _sees_ my LVM partition, it doesn't let me select'em for filesystems.
[08:54] <gatekeeper> element`ubuntu: yw :-)
[08:54] <PaoloC> does anybody know why if try to update my system I get the following?

[08:55] <frogzoo> protestingrab: turn the vol down, cos you'll blow your ears when it works - then sound -> volume control & disable the mutes, turn up PCM
[08:55] <frogzoo> PaoloC: pastebin dude
[08:55] <PaoloC> sorry, pastebin is not wotking at the moment.
[08:55] <gatekeeper> arcade: tried deleting then recreating the partition?
[08:55] <arcade> frogzoo: Pastebin doesn't accept submissions atm
[08:55] <binary1> trying to install dsniff and i get "error: Berkeley DB with 1.85 compatibility not found", can someone help
[08:55] <arcade> gatekeeper: Uhm .. and losing the data? :D
[08:55] <arcade> gatekeeper: Kind of "not an option" ;)
[08:55] <neighborlee> skavenge, taking out the us. isn't helping at :)
[08:56] <neighborlee> a tal
[08:56] <stefg> pastes could go to #flood in the meantime
[08:56] <neighborlee> at all
[08:56] <fuoco> anyone here ever did capturing video from a camcorder via firewire ?
[08:56] <gatekeeper> arcade: you didn't mention that bit :-)
[08:56] <arcade> gatekeeper: Thought it quite obvious ;)
[08:56] <arcade> gatekeeper: Just wondering if there is a kernel module I need to insmod ;)
[08:56] <neighborlee> skavenge, illl just wait a bit later and likely it will be back up ...
[08:56] <element`ubuntu> gatekeeper, so...just apt;/search+item+here?
[08:57] <PaoloC> anyway, any suggestion? :-)
[08:57] <arcade> gatekeeper: Or is the filesystem incompatible due to some 64bit magic on it? :)
[08:57] <gatekeeper> element`ubuntu: apt;/ press return, web page loads off you go
[08:57] <arcade> gatekeeper: .. in which case I won't be able to reinstall today :-/
[08:58] <gatekeeper> arcade: my guess is yes
[08:58] <arcade> ugh.
[08:58] <arcade> :)
[08:58] <jiSh> is there a way to make applications maximize over a gnome panel??
[08:58] <gatekeeper> arcade: can you backup your data, install then restore?
[08:58] <protestingrab> stefg: i pasted the ouputs on that site
[08:58] <arcade> gatekeeper: backing up 390gigs take a LOOOT of time ;)
[08:59] <FurryNemesis> ehm
[08:59] <FurryNemesis> damn
[08:59] <FurryNemesis> who's upgraded to the new kernel?
[08:59] <stefg> k
[08:59] <gatekeeper> arcade: this is breezy 64bit?
[08:59] <FurryNemesis> it broke all my media keys - anyone else have the same prob with Ubuntu 32bit?
[08:59] <arcade> gatekeeper: Yeps, breezy 64bit, and I want to "upgrade" to Dapper 32bit
[08:59] <nn> FurryNemesis: .15?
[08:59] <arcade> gatekeeper: As I'm tired of not having the mplayer codecs I want :)
[09:00] <FurryNemesis_> the one today
[09:00] <FurryNemesis_> so yes
[09:00] <nn> FurryNemesis: uname -a?
[09:00] <gatekeeper> arcade: can't you install 32bit version of mplayer + codecs?
[09:00] <protestingrab> stefg: what do you want me to do now?
[09:00] <boricua> i just upgrade to php5  i did apache restart but phpinfo still shows php 4?
[09:01] <jiSh> is there a way to make applications maximize over a gnome panel??
[09:01] <gatekeeper> arcade: similar trick to get flash working if Firefox!
[09:01] <protestingrab> frogzoo: i am confused by your instructions, sorry I am new to linux
[09:01] <protestingrab> i double clicked the sound icon in the top right
[09:01] <stefg> protestingrab: that's only dmesg.. so you have i810 audio.. i
[09:01] <arcade> gatekeeper: 32bit version not available in repository, compiling it doesn't work as /usr/lib32/libc.so doesn't exist.
[09:01] <roostishaw> anyone, how do i get flash to work like it does in firefox, in swiftfox?
[09:01] <protestingrab> and made sure nothing was muted
[09:01] <stefg> protestingrab: lsmod, too, please
[09:01] <protestingrab> all right
[09:02] <arcade> gatekeeper: apt-get install mplayer-386 didn't work like a charm, to put it that way :)
[09:02] <arcade> gatekeeper: But maybe, if you walk me through it (just let me reboot the box and get back ;)
[09:02] <Warbo> roostishaw: Try getting the installer from Adobe, since that asks where you want to install it (and give it SwiftFox's plugin folder)
[09:02] <PaoloC> I cannot update the sysytem, I'm gonna post the apt-get output in #flood in a second
[09:02] <roostishaw> Warbo, will do. thanks
[09:02] <nn> PaoloC: us mirrors are temporarily down
[09:02] <nn> the interweb is broken
[09:03] <scifi> billybennett: u still here m8 ?
[09:03] <protestingrab> stefg: all right i posted lsmod also

[09:04] <billybennett> ik
[09:04] <Rei_Enna> anyone know how i might go about installing gv?
[09:04] <PaoloC> nn: that's not the problems, it's a few weeks I'm getting that message
[09:04] <Rei_Enna> it doesn't seem to be in the repositories
[09:04] <protestingrab> stefg: never mind i figured it out
[09:04] <stefg> protestingrab: that looks good... your hardware is up... type alsamixer in a terminal and check carefully for turned down volume or muted channels
[09:05] <nn> PaoloC: oh. then you're doomed :\
[09:05] <protestingrab> stefg: yeah i just selected everything and one thing was muted, thanx for your help you and frogzoo
[09:05] <nn> PaoloC: pastein is your buddy :)
[09:05] <stefg> protestingrab: something was muted,
[09:05] <nn> !pastebin > PaoloC
[09:05] <billybennett> scifi, I havent a clue why its not working now.. the part where it has a negative number is odd to me
[09:05] <arcade> gatekeeper: back. :)  How do I install mplayer-32bit on amd64? :)
[09:05] <scifi> hmm i see
[09:05] <element`ubuntu> gatekeeper, it sends me here.. http://www.aptwebsite.com/
[09:06] <Rieux> hey I cant talk!!!
[09:06] <PaoloC> pastebing is not accepting any post at the moment
[09:06] <Rieux> I can cool
[09:06] <roostishaw> Warbo, it wont let me choose. i have to pick between firefox and opera... :(
[09:06] <digital> where can I find ext2online?
[09:06] <PaoloC> I don't understand this part:  The following packages have been kept back:
   gnome-cups-manager python-netcdf
[09:06] <Wibble-> hey - I having a problem with keyboard layouts.  I've got a standard 105 GB layout, but it doesn't appear to be an option.  It only has this international layout which seems to wait for a further key stroke after I press " for example, so " then a gives ... how can I stop this and just use the keyboard "normally"?
[09:06] <element`ubuntu> gatekeeper, I Still cant figure out how to get universal for my repo tho..
[09:07] <Warbo> I booted up with my RaLink card in, but it didn't log in (made a login noise, but stuck with just a cursor). I could log in to consoles and top told me that iwlist (I think) was taking up about 99%, but sudo didn't work for me to kill it. I managed to boot up by moving iw* out of /sbin temporarily. I want to know how to prevent this in the future
[09:07] <Subhuman> Wibble-, is this during install?
[09:07] <Subhuman> Wibble-, the gb layout is simply called "gb" and works 100% here.
[09:07] <Wibble-> Subhuman: During install I selected the GB layout that worked - after install it had defaulted back to US
[09:07] <arcade> gatekeeper: forget it, found a niiiice howto :)
[09:07] <Warbo> roostishaw: Well admittedly I haven't used the installer for a while. Last time I did it asked for mozilla's location
[09:07] <gatekeeper> element`ubuntu: hang on...
[09:07] <Subhuman> Wibble-, goto system/prefs/keyboard
[09:07] <roostishaw> Warbo... hmm.
[09:07] <Wibble-> I'm there
[09:07] <Subhuman> Wibble-, then "layouts - add
[09:08] <arcade> gatekeeper: .. except that ntnu.no is down at the moment :-( (where the package was located)
[09:08] <Subhuman> Wibble-, then 4th from bottom - united kingdom.
[09:08] <Subhuman> then make sure in the lsit
[09:08] <Subhuman> united states is unticked and uk is ticked, and uk is above us
[09:08] <element`ubuntu> gatekeeper, thx
[09:08] <Wibble-> under "united kingdom" I have two options - dvorak and international with dead keys
[09:08] <gatekeeper> arcade: not sure as I don't have a 64Bit system, others might be able to help, was a bit of lateral thinking from this: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FirefoxAMD64FlashJava
[09:08] <scifi> anyone else use k9copy ?
[09:09] <Subhuman> Wibble-, you dont have to select either - you can jus click the actual "united kingdom" one.
[09:09] <Wibble-> Subhuman: sounds like I'm using a different version of gnome / ubuntu to you - there are no ticks there
[09:09] <Wibble-> OH!!!!!
[09:09] <Wibble-> That was SO not obvious!!!
[09:09] <arcade> gatekeeper: Well, the problem is that mplayer depends on a huge lot of 32bits libraries, which isn't availabe for 64bits ubuntu :-/
[09:09] <Wibble-> thanks Subhuman
[09:09] <jiSh> roostishaw: in terminal, change to your swiftfox directory
[09:09] <gatekeeper> arcade: if you are using the us ones, I think you can try removing .us
[09:09] <Subhuman> Wibble-, i mean once youve selectred it.
[09:09] <arcade> gatekeeper: some guy at ntnu.no has compiled it, but stud.ntnu.no is down at the moment *sigh*
[09:09] <arcade> :-)
[09:09] <roostishaw> jjSh, then run the installer?
[09:09] <capiCrimm> I have a linksys BEFSR41 router, and I can't seem to set my ubuntu machine to a static internal ip adress. :\
[09:09] <arcade> gatekeeper: see: http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=62685
[09:09] <nn> arcade: it seems much of the interweb is down
[09:09] <Subhuman> Wibble-, all good now then?
[09:09] <arcade> gatekeeper: explains it all :)
[09:10] <capiCrimm> I've edited /etc/network/interfaces
[09:10] <jiSh> roostishaw: and then sudo ln -s /usr/lib/mozilla-firefox/plugins/* .
[09:10] <gatekeeper> arcade: realplayer 10 ?
[09:10] <Wibble-> Subhuman: Yes, it works perfectly now.  I was under the impression that because it had sub-items I had to select one of them - thanks for your help
[09:10] <Warbo> Any idea why iwlist hogs the CPU so I can't log in?
[09:10] <nn> what's iwlist?
[09:10] <Subhuman> Wibble-, anytime :)
[09:10] <jiSh> roostishaw: make sure you put that dot that's at the end
[09:10] <nn> Ahh wireless stuff
[09:10] <Subhuman> Warbo, no but why cant you jus kill it?
[09:10] <arcade> nn: It's summertime, we sysadmins aren't as active that time of year ;D
[09:10] <AngryElf> what pdf viewers come with ubuntu other that evince?
[09:10] <Warbo> nn: Something to do with networking. Top said it was taking up 99% processor speed, and GNOME wouldn't log in
[09:10] <roostishaw> jjSh, do that from within /home/roostishaw/.swiftfox ?
[09:10] <Subhuman> Warbo, also for wifi management "network-manager" is a great app.
[09:10] <Warbo> Subhuman: sudo didn't work
[09:10] <A[D] minS> my friend installing Ubuntu rite now
[09:10] <A[D] minS> and he got that erorr
[09:11] <capiCrimm> DHCP works fine, though
[09:11] <Warbo> Subhuman: It is when you can log in
[09:11] <nn> Warbo: it's wireless stuff
[09:11] <A[D] minS> an error was returned while trying to install  the kkernel in to the target system
[09:11] <Subhuman> Warbo, i mean apt-get remove it.
[09:11] <gatekeeper> arcade: got for that when it becomes available :-)
[09:11] <A[D] minS> Kernel package : 'linux-386'
[09:11] <mrbrdo> hello.. how can i find out which driver my wlan card (eth2) is using?
[09:11] <A[D] minS> Check /var/log/syslog or see virtual console 4 for the details
[09:11] <arcade> gatekeeper: Yeps :)  Maybe I can knock someone around when I get to Trondheim tomorrow ;)
[09:11] <nn> arcade: I'm usually coding small amounts but mostly sleeping with my wifey
[09:11] <nn> ;)
[09:11] <A[D] minS> so what he can do to finish installtion?
[09:11] <arcade> gatekeeper: (ntnu is in trondheim/norway :)
[09:11] <element`ubuntu> what's that command again to select a different java?
[09:11] <Warbo> I moved everything beginning with iw out of /sbin and rebooted, now it is fine (I moved them back after), but I don't want to do that after every boot
[09:11] <arcade> nn: hehe :)  my future wifey is far too far away atm :-(
[09:11] <nn> arcade: my wifey is in nyc, im in wv! ha.
[09:12] <nn> but thursday!
[09:12] <mrbrdo> how to check which driver a wlan card is using?
[09:12] <arcade> nn: kind of difficult to sleep with her with that distance?!;D
[09:12] <KrisWood> Hello everyone, I'm doing some routine hardware maintenance on my ubuntu box, and was wondering if it's recommended to upgrade to dapper from breezy if everything is working without problems on breezy.
[09:12] <scifi> billybennett: shud i just try copying title 2 and see what happens ?
[09:12] <arcade> nn: "Come september" I say :)  _Then_! :D
[09:12] <roostishaw> jjSh, do that from within /home/roostishaw/.swiftfox ?
[09:12] <nn> arcade: Yea, she went home tuesday, then i go see her next thursday
[09:12] <billybennett> scifi, copy the large video yes
[09:12] <A[D] minS> helloz
[09:12] <nn> arcade: army keeps me on a short leash
[09:12] <gatekeeper> element`ubuntu: have a look at this: http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Dapper#How_to_add_extra_repositories ohh try apt;/ in konqueor works for me :-)
[09:12] <bbrazil> KrisWood: you only really have to upgrade when security support runs out
[09:12] <skavenge> whats the best NES emulator with a gui? is there one in the repos?
[09:12] <arcade> nn: heh, i live in norway while my fiancee is in the philippines. :-(
[09:13] <nn> ::smile.dk - pink dinosaur:: <- bestest song ever
[09:13] <scifi> billybennett: just tick the video, not the audio as well ?
[09:13] <nn> arcade: Ouch
[09:13] <A[D] minS> any idea with that error in installtion ? an error was returned while trying to install  the kkernel in to the target system  Kernel package : 'linux-386'
[09:13] <nn> but you got a hawt phillipino girl.. so :P
[09:13] <arcade> nn: Damn long distance.  I'm seeing her in september, and if that damned norwegian embassy could just speed up that visa processing...
[09:13] <Warbo> !offtopic
[09:13] <billybennett> scifi, tick video,audio and subtitles if you want it
[09:13] <ubotu> #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[09:13] <KrisWood> bbrazil: Thanks, so there's no real benefit to upgrading aside from that?
[09:13] <arcade> nn: heh ;)
[09:13] <mrbrdo> how can i check which driver is my wlan card using?
[09:13] <arcade> nn: Met her on IRC, actually :D
[09:13] <Warbo> mrbrdo: "lsmod" gives a list of loaded drivers
[09:13] <bbrazil> KrisWood: you'll get newer versions, but some stuff will break. Unless you need a newer version of something, I wouldn't
[09:13] <mrbrdo> ok thanks i'll try
[09:14] <nn> arcade: met mine on the interweb like a decade ago :P
[09:14] <arcade> nn: Kind of nice opening remarks too. :)  She asked "asl?" and I told her "Go away!" whereupon she respondend "Oh, sorry, i know it's a bad opening, but i'm not feeling creative today" or something like that :D
[09:14] <nn> hahah
[09:14] <KrisWood> bbrazil: thanks :) ok off to upgrade some hardware, have a great day
[09:14] <nn> i helped her fix her computer :P
[09:14] <roostishaw> jjSh, perfect! thanks!
[09:14] <arcade> nn: my first words to my fiancee was "Go away!" ;)
[09:14] <scifi> billybennett: i just want to back it up to mh hard-drive for now, so shall i set output to iso  or dvd-r?
[09:14] <nn> arcade: that's pimp
[09:14] <ironfroggy> anyone know when the US repo servers will be back up?
[09:14] <scifi> my*
[09:14] <arcade> nn: heh.
[09:15] <arcade> nn: not really :)
[09:15] <santa99> good evening, I have a problem with my shutdown. My shutdown starts but it goes only to Will now halt.  Any ideas how to fix ?
[09:15] <nn> arcade: omg i found ddr ringtones
[09:15] <arcade> nn: huh!? :)
[09:15] <ironfroggy> santa99: sounds like a lack of ACPI
[09:15] <nn> arcade: dance dance revolution
[09:15] <arcade> nn: ugh
[09:15] <arcade> :)
[09:15] <billybennett> keep the output default.. it will store it in your  /tmp/kde-username dir
[09:16] <billybennett> errr scifi
[09:16] <santa99> ironfroggy, any ideas about a fix for it ?
[09:16] <nn> i have every song by every artist that was on ddr :P
[09:16] <ironfroggy> nope. should be configured by default.
[09:16] <billybennett> scifi, keep the output default.. it will store it in your  /tmp/kde-username dir
[09:16] <scifi> billybennett: default is iso-image
[09:16] <ironfroggy> there arent any major backbones down today, are there?
[09:16] <mrbrdo> my wlan card currently seems to be using the "tg3" driver, but i want it to use wlan-ng.. is it possible?
[09:16] <nn> ironfroggy: i'd think so
[09:16] <nn> everything is wonky
[09:17] <gatekeeper> element`ubuntu: sorted?
[09:17] <billybennett> scifi, 1 sec
[09:17] <element`ubuntu> gatekeeper, mmm what?
[09:17] <ciplogic> Does anyone know where I should set the Sun Java JRE for Eclipse to run?
[09:17] <gatekeeper> element`ubuntu: see the repos I sent you?
[09:17] <element`ubuntu> gatekeeper, nope..I didn't get anything from you
[09:17] <billybennett> scifi, keep default and it will put it in the /tmp/kde-username dir and copy that to somewhere
[09:17] <frogzoo> santa99: see if there's bios update...
[09:18] <farous> ciplogic: sudo update-alternatives --config java
[09:18] <scifi> billybennett: now just hit "copy" ?
[09:18] <gatekeeper> element`ubuntu: apt;/ works in konquror for me, take a look at this: http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Dapper#How_to_add_extra_repositories
[09:18] <digital> is it possable to unmount /var?
[09:18] <ciplogic> farous: thanks
[09:19] <farous> :)
[09:19] <element`ubuntu> gatekeeper, ok...
[09:19] <mrbrdo> my wlan card currently seems to be using the "tg3" driver, but i want it to use wlan-ng.. is it possible?
[09:19] <gatekeeper> element`ubuntu: comment out non-free
[09:19] <frogzoo> digital: not a good idea at best
[09:19] <billybennett> scifi, yes sir
[09:19] <gatekeeper> element`ubuntu: they are no longer available
[09:19] <digital> frogzoo: What about in single user mode
[09:19] <santa99> frogzoo: ok will take a look for it
[09:19] <element`ubuntu> gatekeeper, ok, thanks
[09:19] <frogzoo> digital: single user, not a problem
[09:19] <scifi> billybennett: i get a read error :*(
[09:19] <gatekeeper> element`ubuntu: should give you all you will need

[09:20] <ironfroggy> how can i list my ssh public keys?
[09:20] <scifi> billybennett: maybe explains why i cant preview it, shall i try cleaning the disc ?
[09:20] <gatekeeper> element`ubuntu: > !repos
[09:20] <DJ_KeNnY> hello
[09:20] <billybennett> scifi, yeah I was wondering why it was doing that :P
[09:20] <frogzoo> digital: or lsof /var
[09:21] <DJ_KeNnY> what?
[09:21] <DJ_KeNnY> ?
[09:21] <LimeKMag> so I just did an apt-get dist-upgrade to dapper...
[09:21] <DJ_KeNnY> gaming?
[09:21] <DJ_KeNnY> blablabla
[09:21] <LimeKMag> and about 100 packages have been held back
[09:21] <DJ_KeNnY> ok
[09:21] <LimeKMag> how do I figure out why?
[09:21] <thygrrr> is it possible to import my windows thunderbirt mailboxes into evolution?
[09:22] <scifi> billybennett: k, trying again ....
[09:22] <xange> stefg: you still around? the nvidia drives wasn't as easy as made out to be..
[09:22] <element`ubuntu> gatekeeper, how can I speed up my mouse? it's slow...
[09:22] <ciplogic> LimeKMag: probably you forget the apt-get update !?
[09:22] <xange> gettin API mismatch error
[09:22] <oneeyedelf1> can someone help me, im trying to install build-essential, but when I do apt-get install build-essential, it gives me an error saying package is not available
[09:22] <billybennett> scifi, I gotta go eat lunch bbl
[09:22] <LimeKMag> ciplogic: I did an apt-get update first
[09:22] <Warbo> oneeyedelf1: The US package mirror is down at the moment
[09:23] <gatekeeper> LimeKMag: when I tried that things like open office where not installed, however using update-manager everthing was installed, only problem I had was I had to re-enable the ethernet card
[09:23] <oneeyedelf1> Warbo: so what do I do?
[09:23] <digital> frogzoo: Nothing is using anything in /var but I still get "busy".
[09:23] <frogzoo> oneeyedelf1: us repos are down - use a different repo
[09:23] <interfear> I want to create a 150gb ext2 filesystem, should I use fdisk for this or is there some graphical tool built into ubuntu?
[09:23] <arcade> YAY!  YAY !  YAY!  YAY!  Finally  32 bits mplayer on my Ubuntu!
[09:23] <interfear> just as a dump partition
[09:23] <oneeyedelf1> frogzoo: how do I add other repo?
[09:23] <Warbo> oneeyedelf1: You can keep everything how it is and wait, or you can change your repositories
[09:23] <Warbo> !easysource
[09:23] <ubotu> source-o-matic is a webpage where you can (re)generate your sources.list - http://www.ubuntu-nl.org/source-o-matic
[09:23] <arcade> gatekeeper: Yayy! :)  It wooooorks! :D
[09:24] <frogzoo> digital: must be something - it's not your shell?
[09:24] <interfear> arcade: whats that
[09:24] <gatekeeper> element`ubuntu: try System Settings -> mouse
[09:24] <LimeKMag> hmm... found one place I missed changing breezy to dapper in my apt sources.list
[09:24] <digital> frogzoo: I'm not sshing into the box
[09:24] <gatekeeper> arcade: maplayer 32bit?
[09:24] <digital> frogzoo: Keyboard and mouse
[09:24] <gatekeeper> LimeKMag: ooops :-)
[09:24] <arcade> gatekeeper: Yepsie! :)
[09:25] <digital> frogzoo: I'll have to figure it out later.
[09:25] <arcade> gatekeeper: Now I'll just swear at some missing realvideo things :D
[09:25] <ciplogic> There is an repository in Ubuntu where I can get monodevelop version 0.11 !?
[09:25] <element`ubuntu> gatekeeper, ah there we go! Rock on.  thanks.  nextly...do you have any experience with dual monitors or have time to help me set mine up?  I can't figure it out for the life of me...
[09:25] <digital> frogzoo: All I nreally need to do is give more space to /var/www. I'm using LVM. I'll create another Logical Volume
[09:25] <arcade> gatekeeper: as this thing is *sigh* mplayer pre6, and I've got the codecs for pre8 ;)
[09:25] <digital> Thanks!
[09:25] <ciplogic> I pgrade to edgy but I have the same 0.10 version
[09:25] <stefg> xange: what's teh prob?
[09:25] <ciplogic> And 0.11 appears for around 2 mounths
[09:25] <xange> the nvidia kernal module has the version 1.0-7174, but this X module has the version 1.0-8762 - how can I fix this?
[09:26] <gatekeeper> element`ubuntu: not really with linux sorry
[09:26] <element`ubuntu> gatekeeper, bummer..ok thx
[09:26] <frogzoo> digital: lsof +D /var
[09:26] <gatekeeper> element`ubuntu: I think you need 2 sections with basically the same info
[09:27] <stefg> xange: you already tried to install the nvidia-installer from the nvidia-site, didn't you?
[09:27] <Rei_Enna> i think i just did something very horrible
[09:27] <trev__> does anyone know what repository audacity is in?
[09:27] <knapper> How do I delete something from sessions that is greyed out?
[09:27] <xange> no...
[09:27] <Rei_Enna> ctrl-z'd apt-get update
[09:27] <Rei_Enna> now its broken
[09:27] <interfear> ok so i want to make a 150gb dump partition, anyone know how to go about this.. fdisk? does ubuntu have a gui version?
[09:27] <nn> Rei_Enna: fg! :)
[09:27] <rpedro> Rei_Enna: type 'fg'
[09:27] <gatekeeper> element`ubuntu: you could try dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[09:27] <stefg> xange: what does uname -r tell
[09:27] <Rei_Enna> "no such job"?
[09:27] <mrbrdo> how to make a wlan card use WLAN-NG instead of TG3 driver?
[09:27] <coachJ> are you having trouble getting audacity?
[09:28] <gatekeeper> arcade: excellent :-)
[09:28] <interfear> like the partitioning program used in the ubuntu install, anyone know how to run that within ubuntu?
[09:28] <rpedro> Rei_Enna: you have to type it on the same terminal
[09:28] <Awesome-o2000> dump partition? never heard of that
[09:28] <xange> 2.6.15-26-adm64-generic
[09:28] <Rei_Enna> uh... i've since closed that terminal
[09:28] <Rei_Enna> T.T
[09:28] <interfear> Awesome-o2000: just a big partition to "dump" files, music movies etc
[09:28] <scifi> anyone know a good app for backing up dvds ?
[09:28] <coachJ> knapper: are you having trouble getting audicitty
[09:28] <ciplogic> scifi: there are more: k3b or gnome-backer
[09:28] <gatekeeper> arcade: if you decide to update when I did it using 32Bit using update-manager was more successfull than trying it manually
[09:28] <knapper> coachJ, no, installing xgl/compiz
[09:28] <ciplogic> or even: nautilus
[09:28] <stefg> xange: oh, so the 64-bit driver wasn't properly updated in the repos, i think
[09:29] <Awesome-o2000> interfear, I dont know about the gui tools but the console ones are rather easy...
[09:29] <xange> stefg: so just want for a week or two?
[09:29] <interfear> Awesome-o2000: yeh, what would you use?
[09:29] <xange> s/want/wait/
[09:29] <scifi> ciplogic: really? nautilus can do it ?
[09:29] <gatekeeper> !dual monitor
[09:29] <ubotu> I know nothing about dual monitor - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[09:29] <arcade> gatekeeper: and now realvid works too :)
[09:29] <gatekeeper> element`ubuntu: ^^^
[09:29] <arcade> gatekeeper: Ahh, how everything just works out when you finally find what you need :D
[09:29] <gatekeeper> arcade: on a role :-)
[09:29] <Awesome-o2000> interfear, it depends, personally I'd use ext2fs, since its just a dump partition, but Im unsure about size limits
[09:29] <ciplogic> scifi: it can create ISO
[09:29] <arcade> gatekeeper: Now maybe I can manage to play dvds too :D
[09:29] <ciplogic> scifi: then to write them
[09:29] <FurryNemesis_> !compiz
[09:29] <ubotu> Compiz (compositing (window) manager) and XGL (Xserver architecture layered on top of OpenGL) howto at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/CompositeManager XGL+compiz help in #ubuntu-xgl  See http://tinyurl.com/pw5ez for Kubuntu systems
[09:30] <stefg> xange: you could try to build the nvidia-module yourself ... know module-assistant?
[09:30] <gatekeeper> arcade: you never know
[09:30] <scifi> ciplogic: how do i get it to create an iso ?
[09:30] <FurryNemesis_> !xpi
[09:30] <ubotu> I know nothing about xpi - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[09:30] <element`ubuntu> gatekeeper, should I use nv or nvidia? I have an nvidia card... (also, how do I make sure I have the latest drivers?)
[09:30] <trev__> i prefere audacity from a repository so synaptic can handle it if i need a upgrade or dependency
[09:30] <xange> stefg: I think I've used it before, but I forget...
[09:30] <gatekeeper> arcade: lateral thinking required

[09:30] <arcade> gatekeeper: Btw; how do I TURN OFF ubuntu trying to be user-friendly with things inserted into the dvd-player? :)
[09:30] <Rei_Enna> how do i fix it if i've closed the terminal?
[09:30] <ciplogic> scifi: everthing you write in CD/DVD write section
[09:30] <coachJ> !java
[09:30] <ubotu> java is an object oriented programming language. To install a java compiler/interpreter on Ubuntu, look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java For the runtime Sun Java install sun-java5-jre from the Multiverse repository
[09:31] <ciplogic> scifi: you may write to an ISO
[09:31] <skavenge> arcade: system -> preferences -> removable drives and media
[09:31] <TheAsp> us.archive.u.c down?
[09:31] <gatekeeper> arcade: don't know sorry, one of the oters might :-)
[09:31] <coachJ> yes
[09:31] <ciplogic> scifi: when you have a CD/DVD inserted, you have the option: copy disk
[09:31] <scifi> ciplogic: ok i wonder if xfces file manager thunar, will also do that
[09:31] <arcade> skavenge: ugh, i don't use gnome :)
[09:32] <phil> hello all
[09:32] <gatekeeper> element`ubuntu: not sure, I have so far bottled out of using the latest drivers :-)
[09:32] <arcade> skavenge: which _file_ do I edit? :D
[09:32] <skavenge> no idea then
[09:32] <stefg> xange: sudo apt-get install module-assistant linux-headers-`uname -r`  first
[09:32] <skavenge> *shrug* i do it the easy way ;)
[09:32] <phil> does anyone know if we can make one drive with many little hard disks
[09:32] <arcade> skavenge: ubuntus main disadvantage for me is that it's _overly_ userfriendly ;)
[09:32] <ciplogic> scifi: I don't know so good XFCE but most person I know that use XFCE say that GNOME is bloated (has too many options that user need)
[09:33] <skavenge> arcade: thats the point of the distro
[09:33] <gatekeeper> phil: you mean lots of partitions?
[09:33] <arcade> skavenge: Yeah, but it's so sexy in all the _other_ ways :)
[09:33] <xange> stefg: downloading/installing now
[09:33] <RRubin> does anyone sell laptops with breezy pre-installed where everything works?
[09:33] <Samineru> What programs do you guys suggest for a sort of itunes alternative besides rhythmbox, also for some reason rhythmbox opens at every startup even though it is not on my startup list.
[09:33] <Samineru> which I want to stop
[09:33] <arcade> skavenge: So I prefer it to other distros ;D
[09:33] <FurryNemesis_> amrok?
[09:34] <RRubin> Samineru: you mean you want to buy music? or just a player?
[09:34] <oneeyedelf1> thanks Warbo and frogzoo, I added the Candian repositories
[09:34] <analiser> hi
[09:34] <Samineru> rrubin just a player
[09:35] <analiser> some body use a orinoco gold
[09:35] <RRubin> Samineru: i reccomend beep-media-player
[09:35] <analiser> i cant put the card on monitor mode
[09:35] <Samineru> rrubin thank you
[09:35] <scifi> ciplogic: hmm i think there something wrong, i can read and browse the files fine on the DVD, but i cant seem to play any of the vob files
[09:35] <Rikkimaru> Where can I find a sound driver for my laptop?
[09:35] <gatekeeper> element`ubuntu: I would first try to get dual monitors working with the drivers you are currently using, then install the nvidia drivers at the end
[09:36] <gatekeeper> !nvidia
[09:36] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto
[09:36] <ciplogic> scifi: you need to add restricted formats
[09:36] <gatekeeper> element`ubuntu: ^^^^
[09:36] <analiser> some body use a orinoco gold
[09:36] <Tamale> How can I use firefox in Ubuntu to view the trailers on this page?
[09:36] <Tamale> http://www.apple.com/trailers/wb/teenagemutantninjaturtles/hd/
[09:36] <ciplogic> scifi: you should enable your multiverse repository for doing that
[09:36] <nn> Tamale: Nooooooooooooooooo
[09:36] <Tamale> I can't?
[09:36] <ciplogic> scifi: look here usr/lib/jvm/java-1.5.0-sun-<IP_ADDRESS>/bin/
[09:36] <nn> tmnt == evil
[09:37] <Samineru> rrubin I was looking for something with more of a library function as opposed to just winamp style
[09:37] <ciplogic> Nope :)
[09:37] <xange> ok, while I am not able to use X (err nvidia) can I change the 'resolution' of terminal?
[09:37] <scifi> ciplogic: i think i already enabled multiverse, but what restricted formats do i need to add ?
[09:37] <ciplogic> scifi: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats
[09:37] <Tamale> i don't even want to view it in the browser, i just want to download the video files
[09:37] <ciplogic> scifi: Look at section: Playing encrypted DVDs
[09:38] <Samineru> rrubin also for some reason my computer seems to be unable to play mp3s
[09:38] <xange> stefg: installed
[09:38] <billybennett> scifi, did you get it to read?
[09:38] <stefg> xange: it just came to my mind that if the nvidia-glx isn't matching, probably the source won't either
[09:38] <RRubin> Samineru: if you dont mind doing something complex, check out ampache
[09:38] <scifi> ciplogic: will take a look thnx. what am i also looking for in that java folder ?
[09:38] <analiser> some body can helpme whit a orinoco card on ubuntu
[09:38] <amee2k> hi all
[09:38] <rdemanow> any wireless networking gurus onboard?
[09:38] <RRubin> Samineru: its an apache/php based mp3 library.. so you can stream to anywhere or play local
[09:38] <xange> stefg: :( hehe aight thanks...so just wait for a week or two and give it another try?
[09:38] <ciplogic> scifi: I was another paste in my clipboard
[09:38] <gatekeeper> Tamale: works for me in kaffine, probable need the correct codes
[09:39] <scifi> billybennett: no i think it may be because i dont have some restricted formats installed
[09:39] <scifi> ciplogic: ok lol
[09:39] <stefg> xange but build-essential and headers anyway are the prerequisites for building the driver from nvidia.com
[09:39] <amee2k> has anyone else experienced that nautilus is inherently unstable when dealing with networked resources on x64?
[09:39] <ciplogic> scifi: Take care because restricted formats apply in patent-free countries
[09:39] <ciplogic> scifi: as in Europe :)
[09:39] <Tamale> gatekeeper:  what is kaffine ?
[09:39] <RRubin> amee2k: i have experienced that nautilus is unstable when dealing with networked resourecs period
[09:40] <schmity> where do i go for gnome stuff
[09:40] <cpk2> rdemanow: ask your question and maybe you will find out =)
[09:40] <stefg> xange: so you could get the dribver from the nvidia-site, put it in /usr/src and try if it builds
[09:40] <digital> frogzoo: lsof +D /var = nothing
[09:40] <ciplogic> scifi: never give the fault to me if RIIA will came to me to judge my intention to help you playing a DVD :)
[09:40] <rdemanow> the ubuntu desktop bootable CD recognizes my Linksys WMP55AG wireless card, but won't connect to the network.
[09:40] <amee2k> RRubin: so that's not an x64 connected issue? when is it going to be improved?
[09:40] <billybennett> rdemanow, are you using wpa?
[09:40] <scifi> ciplogic: lol
[09:40] <Samineru> rrubin is ampache in synaptics?
[09:40] <rdemanow> billybennett: WEP 128-bit
[09:40] <Samineru> rrubin cause I cannot find it
[09:41] <billybennett> rdemanow, n/m
[09:41] <gatekeeper> I am using KDE, is a media player, guess gnome has an equivalent
[09:41] <cpk2> kinda embarrasing but whats the command to copy dirs? cp doesnt work heh
[09:41] <xange> brb
[09:41] <Tamale> the buttons don't even show up on apple's pages.. i'm assuming my quicktime plugin for firefox isn't working properly
[09:41] <amee2k> cpk2: cp -r
[09:41] <RRubin> Samineru: no, ampache.org
[09:41] <Samineru> oh
[09:41] <RRubin> some day it will be
[09:41] <cpk2> amee2k: thanks
[09:41] <amee2k> np :)
[09:42] <stefg> xange: http://download.nvidia.com/XFree86/Linux-x86_64/1.0-8762/NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-1.0-8762-pkg2.run

[09:42] <rdemanow> I've used iwconfig to set the key and all that fun stuff, it appears to be attached to the router, but dhclient can't get an address for it
[09:42] <Samineru> rrubin btw I keep getting this whenever I run a package manager type application  http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/18636
[09:42] <omac> what's up with us.archive.ubuntu.com?  I can't seem to install anything today.
[09:42] <nn> omac: it's down, remove us. from your /etc/apt/sources.lst lines and run 'apt-get update' to resolve this until they are back up
[09:42] <cpk2> rdemanow: you go to this page? https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/WirelessNetworking?highlight=%28network%29%7C%28wireless%29
[09:42] <nn> It's a known issue, since apparently half of the interweb is broken today
[09:43] <stefg> xange: ctrl-alt-f1... sudo killall gdm
[09:43] <stefg> see you in console :-)
[09:43] <Samineru> rrubin also i feel a little n00bish to ask, but how does one usually go about installing something from a tarball
[09:43] <gatekeeper> Tamale: got to run, if you are using xine, probable need to install  libxine-extracodecs
[09:43] <Tamale> i'm not using any movie player
[09:44] <Tamale> i just want to download the files.
[09:44] <cpk2> Samineru: untar it then ./configure then make install
[09:44] <mrbrdo> my wlan card currently seems to be using the "tg3" driver, but i want it to use wlan-ng.. is it possible? how can i change it
[09:44] <ciplogic> Tamale: you may install gstreamer-ffmpeg & ffmpeg to play regular movies in Totem, Kaffeine
[09:44] <gatekeeper> element`ubuntu: hope you sort the rest of your problems, got to run. good luck! :-)
[09:44] <analiser> some body can helpme whit a orinoco card on ubuntu
[09:44] <avalost> what can I open ASF vid streams with?
[09:44] <rdemanow> cpk2 yeah, I've done all that, but when I enter the WEP key it just sits there at a DHCP dialog for a long time, then drops back and I'm still not connected to the network
[09:45] <Tamale> ciplogic:  i just want to view webpages built with quicktime, like the apple movie page
[09:45] <Tamale> so i can download the files there.
[09:45] <Awesome-o2000> weak! gaim yahoo isnt signing in
[09:45] <Tamale> i think yahoo is down.
[09:45] <ciplogic> Tamale: I cannot help you
[09:45] <avalost> my yahoo just kicked me off
[09:45] <scifi> ciplogic: grrrrrr, synaptic shows libdvdread3 is already installed, so i typed in the sudo command line to install libdvdcss2. but it still doesnt play :*(
[09:45] <Tamale> ciplogic:  does the apple movie page work for you? :]
[09:45] <avalost> anyone: ASF video streams? KNow what to use to play them?
[09:45] <assasukasse> hi all
[09:45] <assasukasse> what happens if i install a deb package on ubuntu
[09:46] <assasukasse> since the one in the ubuntu repo is a bit oldie
[09:46] <farous> Tamale: i do not know how you can download them (if possible). Mozilla-mplayer will help you watch them though
[09:46] <Tamale> they provide links to download
[09:46] <Tamale> but the "links" are quicktime buttons
[09:46] <ciplogic> Tamale: give to me the link please

[09:46] <stefg> !codecs > avalost
[09:46] <Samineru> rrubin does not seem to be working...
[09:46] <farous> Tamale: i think you need to config firefox to download instead of view in page
[09:46] <Samineru> there is no config file in the folder
[09:46] <avalost> stefg: I have all windows codecs

[09:47] <Tamale> i was considering trying opera anyway
[09:47] <Tamale> hah
[09:47] <frogzoo> assasukasse: things may break in horrible ways
[09:48] <farous> Tamale: opera do not run embeded mplayer unless you recompile mplayer without gtk support
[09:48] <analiser> anyone:i cant put in monitor mode mi orinoco gold card on ubuntu 6.06..
[09:48] <Tamale> so their "buttons" are actually movie files?
[09:48] <stefg> avalost: then your best bet is trying either with mplayer-plugin or get the url extracted manually and try to play it with vlc
[09:48] <Tamale> that must be played?
[09:48] <ciplogic> Tamale: for now there is no QuickTime plugin for Linux
[09:48] <Tamale> ciplogic:  THANK YOU.
[09:49] <Tamale> that's all i really wanted to know lol.
[09:49] <stefg> !info libquicktime
[09:49] <ubotu> Package libquicktime does not exist in dapper
[09:49] <farous> ciplogic: mplayer-plugin will play quitcktime i am using it here
[09:49] <ciplogic> We must stride to convince apple that Ubuntu has the 60% of market share that Apple does
[09:49] <Tamale> in firefox ?
[09:49] <skavenge> yes it will
[09:49] <farous> Tamale: correct
[09:49] <analiser> anyone:i cant put in monitor mode mi orinoco gold card on ubuntu 6.06..

[09:59] <idefix_> Hisham no but I'd like to know how
[09:59] <_marshall_> does anybody know a good howto for a beginner setting up a LAMP server?

[09:59] <xange> stefg: so tell it no that I don't want to try and download one?
[09:59] <idefix_> Hisham how do you know if things are installed from source or from binary on your PC
[09:59] <idefix_> hisham did you just download something from the repos with synaptic packet manager?
[09:59] <Hisham> I dont know
[09:59] <stefg> xange: no, don't try to download
[09:59] <Hisham> no
[09:59] <idefix_> Hisham did you just download something from the repos with synaptic packet manager?
[09:59] <SanketMedhi> MonsieurBon: sorry, never used that. but Firefox extensions work same for all systems afaik.
[09:59] <idefix_> oh sorry
[10:00] <Hisham> i got it from sourceforge
[10:00] <idefix_> Hisham?you don't know?
[10:00] <scifi> ciplogic/billybennett: think were getting somwhere now, i logged back into ubuntu in gnome and dvd playback works. so gonna try to recopy it and preview now

[10:00] <bbrazil> waht's the keystroke to bring up the application menu in gnome?
[10:01] <xange> sick, it worked :) thanks stefg
[10:01] <ciplogic> scifi: I logged on XFCE and I have no sound :)
[10:01] <MonsieurBon> SanketMedhi: What not works is this: It should read a CSS Skin for the page www.hattrick.org from a zip-file in the extension dir. It does not see the zip file. I had FF 1.5 installed in /opt/firefox in breezy as there was only an old FF version from the repo and the extension worked fine.
[10:01] <stefg> xange: now for /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[10:01] <xange> already done :)
[10:01] <scifi> ciplogic/billybennett: hehe dam xfce :P
[10:01] <nvez> can i make xchat display color tags in the topic textbox?

[10:01] <xange> restarted gdm and got the nvidia logo screen when it started up
[10:01] <Raito> I have a Windows program that I can run in wine, only problem is, it only seems to work if the terminal I am in is inside the folder of the binary. I want to make a launcher for it, but is it possible to put two commands when I click the launcher as opposed to one? because then it would work. How would I do this?
[10:01] <stefg> xange: /etc/init.d/gdm restart
[10:02] <SanketMedhi> MonsieurBon: is Firefox detecting the extension first of all?
[10:02] <SanketMedhi> ?
[10:02] <MonsieurBon> SanketMedhi: yes. The extension does a few other tweaks on the page and they all work fine
[10:02] <stefg> xange: glxinfo | grep direct
[10:03] <Hisham> ?
[10:03] <SanketMedhi> MonsieurBon: sorry I don't have enough time to try that extension, you should go to the firefox channel instead of being here
[10:04] <godtvisken> Uhm.. I am trying to compile something through source but I get the error, "bash: make: command not found" But I have gcc and such and have done this before..
[10:04] <xange> stefg: direct rendering: yes
[10:04] <MonsieurBon> SanketMedhi: i think that it's not a FF related problem but an ubuntu-FF related but I'll ask in the FF channel
[10:04] <stefg> xange: and for posing purposes: glxgears -printfps
[10:04] <godtvisken> I get the error even as root

[10:23] <tommy18crowe> I think I have to use 64-bit edition to get it to work
[10:23] <tommy18crowe> yeah
[10:23] <farous> Hisham: depending on the dependenices of the program you are trying to compile
[10:23] <tommy18crowe> I tirps my bios and my computer won't start up
[10:23] <Hisham> ok, what does that mean
[10:23] <scifi> billybennett: u still ere m8 ?
[10:23] <farous> Hisham: easier to search for the package and install from the repos
[10:23] <Hisham> I mean i download stuff, and i need to install them
[10:23] <therabbit> I'm looking for instruction on how to comand line interface in terminal
[10:23] <GlassCasket> skavenge: Because I tried booting my three drives ans got error 15 and 17 :\
[10:23] <Hisham> and they are not in the repos
[10:23] <farous> !cli
[10:23] <ubotu> The linux terminal or command-line interface is very powerful. Open a terminal via applications -> accessories -> terminal (gnome) or kmenu -> system -> konsole (kde). Manuals: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BasicCommands
[10:24] <Jowi> tommy18crowe: define "trips"
[10:24] <billybennett> scifi, yes
[10:24] <tommy18crowe> um
[10:24] <farous> Hisham: what package you are trying to install
[10:24] <tommy18crowe> my mobo doens't work until you pull out the battery
[10:24] <scifi> billybennett: authoring got to 46%, then restarted at 0 % !! :'(
[10:24] <theine> Hi, although the vga16fb is listed in /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist, it is always loaded while booting the system. Does anybody know how to prevent this module from being loaded?
[10:24] <Hisham> kmess
[10:24] <Hisham> but i mean in general
[10:24] <therabbit> thanks

[10:26] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (you can always find it in the channel topic, among other useful things)
[10:26] <farous> Hisham: look at ubotu link
[10:26] <rdemanow> so why won't dhclient get me an addy?
[10:26] <Jowi> rdemanow: pastebin. don't flood the channel please. there are close to 800 people in here
[10:26] <tommy18crowe> Jowi: it not just Ubuntu it all *nix that isn't 64-bit
[10:26] <stiv2k> what driver do atheros-based cars use????? is it wlan-ng ?
[10:26] <stefg> !wifi > stiv2k
[10:26] <Jowi> tommy18crowe: maybe you should see if there is a bios upgrade for your mobo. that is one serious bug
[10:27] <stiv2k> stefg: thanks
[10:27] <tommy18crowe> Jowi: I did that
[10:27] <scifi> billybennett: after searching on the net it has "ARccOS" protection which is not easy to get around
[10:27] <rdemanow> dunno what it is in Linux.  In FreeBSD it's if_ath(4)
[10:27] <farous> Hisham: and you can use kopte for msn instant message
[10:28] <Jowi> tommy18crowe: what modo do you have?
[10:28] <Hisham> kopote sucks
[10:28] <SanketMedhi> lol

[10:29] <stiv2k> stefg: it looks like it's madwifi...does the 6.06 liveCD have it already?  for some reason it seems like my card is *weaker* in linux than windows
[10:29] <stiv2k> stefg: in the sense that i cannot connec to my AP because i'm on the patio and its farther away...and i can't pick up as many other APs as i can in windows
[10:29] <tmccrary> faous
[10:29] <bender_> i have found a bug in the /etc/init.d/ppp script
[10:29] <rdemanow> from what I can see in iwconfig, dhclient *should* be getting me an addy ... works fine in wankers and FreeBSD, but for some reason it won't work in ubuntu :(
[10:29] <tmccrary> farous
[10:29] <farous> Hisham: for kde questions better ask in kubuntu room
[10:30] <Hisham> but i use ubuntu
[10:30] <stefg> stiv2k: don't ask me... i prefer copper over air..
[10:30] <farous> Hisham: so why not use gaim
[10:30] <bender_> were can i submit a bug report and the fix for that ?
[10:30] <stiv2k> stefg: hah ok
[10:30] <skavenge> bender_: launchpad.net

[10:30] <rdemanow> stefg, I don't think my landlord would appreciate me drilling holes in his walls to run copper from down the road ...
[10:30] <skavenge> tommy18crowe: it is
[10:30] <SanketMedhi> Tommyyes it is
[10:30] <tmccrary> stiv2k: You may be able to changes card specific settings and boost power
[10:30] <tommy18crowe> ok
[10:31] <SanketMedhi> tommy18crowe:
[10:31] <SanketMedhi> yes
[10:31] <Hisham> crashes
[10:31] <tommy18crowe> SanketMedhi: yes?
[10:31] <tommy18crowe> ok
[10:31] <farous> Hisham: that is not usual. it never crashed here
[10:31] <stiv2k> tmccrary: how can i do that?
[10:32] <tommy18crowe> now i gotta go reinstall ubuntu with the 64-bit version
[10:32] <tommy18crowe> argh
[10:32] <Hisham> i open it, it auto signs in, then disapears
[10:32] <tommy18crowe> :(
[10:32] <Jowi> tommy18crowe: maybe there is a jumper setting that is wrong or you've got yourself a faulty mobo. google returns nil
[10:32] <tommy18crowe> then dubug it
[10:32] <farous> it should be in your icontray
[10:32] <tommy18crowe> Jowi: I know what it is
[10:32] <tmccrary> stiv2k: using iwpriv
[10:32] <tommy18crowe> Jowi: its my 6600GT
[10:32] <tommy18crowe> :P
[10:32] <Jowi> tommy18crowe: what is 6600GT?
[10:33] <farous> Hisham: did you play with your panels. right click on it and add notification area
[10:33] <tommy18crowe> $175 GPU
[10:33] <stiv2k> tmccrary: oh...is it very straight-forward...i've never used it before...also does it come with the liveCD? it's all i have right now and w/o internet i can't download it
[10:33] <tommy18crowe> !nvidia
[10:33] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto
[10:34] <Hisham> Wow, farous
[10:34] <Hisham> i owe you man
[10:34] <Hisham> :)
[10:34] <tmccrary> stiv2k: It should come as part of the iw package that hp made
[10:34] <Jowi> tommy18crowe: still shouldn't be able to alter cmos. haven't seen that sort of behaviour sine my 486-dx100. a looong time ago
[10:34] <Hisham> thanks a lot
[10:34] <tmccrary> stiv2k: run iwpriv from a terminal to see what ioctls are available
[10:34] <esc_ape> so, what is the difference between the install .iso and the alternate .iso? which one uses espresso?
[10:34] <farous> :)
[10:34] <stiv2k> tmccrary: good, and would you happen to know if madwifi comes in the liveCD aswell
[10:34] <SanketMedhi> esc_ape: that is a mystery
[10:35] <SanketMedhi> :)
[10:35] <billybennett> does the server install have any GUI
[10:35] <SonicvanaJr> Is anyone else having troubles connecting to us.archive.ubuntu.com
[10:35] <tmccrary> if you have an atheros card and it works on the live cd, changes are you have madwifi. You could do: lsmod | grep madwifi and see if it's loaded in the kernel
[10:35] <stefg> esc_ape: install uses espresso, it's a Live CD... alternate is good and proven text-mode installer
[10:35] <esc_ape> mystery?
[10:35] <stiv2k> tmccrary: correct i do have an atheros card
[10:35] <esc_ape> stefg - thanks. I was looking for the text mode installer
[10:35] <SanketMedhi> stefg: thanks :)
[10:35] <skavenge> does epiphany have media\video support?
[10:36] <Panth3r> i cant use the live CD, I cant get my iBook to display the colors properly
[10:36] <stiv2k> tmccrary: ok, im gonna reboot and mess around with iwpriv...are there any settings that i should set to boost the power?

[10:48] <SanketMedhi> blampe1: umm not sure
[10:48] <tNt_CornFlakes> hmm
[10:48] <glatzee> No one knows why I cant login from gdm/kdm?

[10:48] <Jowi> glatzee: what happens?
[10:49] <blampe1> do you know how to change mplayer to the default wmv player for firefox
[10:49] <maxkelley> anyone good with cups?
[10:49] <tNt_CornFlakes> just for interest sake

[10:49] <tNt_CornFlakes> damn
[10:49] <tNt_CornFlakes> :(
[10:49] <maxkelley> at least, I don't think so..
[10:49] <SanketMedhi> tNt_CornFlakes: I have met him :

[10:49] <TristanT06> hey people, when I have my tv connected to the s-video out, my crt monitor gets extremly bright and washed out, what's the problem?
[10:50] <Jowi> glatzee: what wm are you using?
[10:50] <glatzee> Jowi: KDE and Xfce
[10:50] <piwi> hi there, I would like to add a menu in Applications using Alacarte. Radio > then links to Radio France radio's that are using ogg streams. The only thing is that I have to fill this Entry Editor box... I put the URL of the stream in commande but Im not quite sure wether I have to add totem and then pass it the URL as an argument or just leave the URL
[10:50] <Jowi> glatzee: in gdm, make sure one of them is selected instead of default or gnome.
[10:50] <fiznut> I just recently installed Ubuntu, but haven't done anythign to the driver that was installed for my 9800 pro. Should I replace it for better performance or is the driver that comes preinstalled the better?
[10:51] <lophyte> anyone here know anything about remastering the Dapper CD?
[10:51] <glatzee> Jowi: Done that. Whatever I choose it just kicks me back to gdm
[10:51] <jdmpike> did anyone in here follow Kilz howto to setup 32 bit wine on 64 bit dapper
[10:51] <jdmpike> I have some problems...
[10:51] <Jowi> glatzee: if you have added kde or xfce to your .xsession file, you must select "default" in gdm. might be .xsession is exec'ing the wrong file.
[10:51] <SanketMedhi> jdmpike: I have wine on 64 bit
[10:52] <glatzee> Jowi: Where is the .xsession file?
[10:52] <SanketMedhi> jdmpike: all I did was sudo dpkg --force-all wine*.deb
[10:52] <Jowi> glatzee: /home/user/.xsession . if you haven't changed it you should not have to mess with it, so it should be something else that is wrong.
[10:52] <jdmpike> SanketMedhi I followed kilz howto, to do it without a chroot, can't find wine after
[10:53] <Jowi> glatzee: can you log in normally in console?
[10:53] <glatzee> Jowi: The only thing that I know I changed was upgrading kde to latest version. But I should be able to login to xfce even if kde isn't working right?
[10:53] <Jowi> glatzee: right
[10:53] <SanketMedhi> jdmpike: don't use chroot, its too tuff and it sux
[10:53] <Commander|afk> is it up yet?
[10:53] <glatzee> Jowi: yes, I can login normally
[10:53] <themolasses> Hi - could anyone help me with some newbie questions?
[10:54] <glatzee> In console mode
[10:54] <jdmpike> SanketMedhi, I run wine and get 'file or directory not found', I run winecfg and get /usr/bin/winecfg: line 29: /usr/bin/wine: No such file or directory
[10:54] <jdmpike> /usr/bin/winecfg: line 29: /usr/bin/wine: Success
[10:54] <SanketMedhi> is this .thumbnails directory important?
[10:54] <ardchoille> no
[10:54] <ardchoille> it's thumbnail cache
[10:54] <ardchoille> I delete it upon login
[10:54] <themolasses> I'm trying to install dapper to an external usb hard drive
[10:54] <Commander|afk> apt-get isn't up yet is it?
[10:54] <SanketMedhi> ardchoille: thanks taking too much space
[10:54] <ardchoille> SanketMedhi: Yes, you're right.
[10:55] <SanketMedhi> jdmpike: just download the debs for x32 and force installation using dpkg
[10:55] <Jowi> glatzee: you can try to delete your xfce and kde directories in your home dir to see if that does it.
[10:55] <emil> Hi Guys
[10:55] <themolasses> but I'm not sure how to make the external drive bootable
[10:55] <emil> Yesterday someone told me how to solve a sound problem on Flash, it worked, but now i restarted m PC, and it doesn't work anymore
[10:55] <glatzee> Jowi: Okey, brb
[10:55] <Jowi> glatzee: /home/user/.xfce and /home/user/.kde
[10:55] <Panth3r> OMFG
[10:55] <ardchoille> Jowi: The kde devs say to *never* delete ~/.kde
[10:56] <glatzee> Jowi: Same thing
[10:56] <Jowi> ardchoille: i don't mind what they say. it solved it for me a few months back :) (maybe I was just lucky)
[10:56] <glatzee> Jowi: I still get nothing. Could it be something with X?
[10:57] <ardchoille> SanketMedhi: Can I pm you ?
[10:57] <fiznut> Is the default driver for ATI cards fine, or can I get better performance by replacing it with something else?
[10:57] <Jowi> glatzee: if kdm/gdm starts your Xorg should be fine
[10:57] <SanketMedhi> ardchoille: ok
[10:57] <Jowi> glatzee: if you create a new user, can that user log in?
[10:58] <glatzee> Jowi: I'll try, brb
[10:59] <glatzee> Jowi: Nope.
[10:59] <glatzee> Jowi: No luck there either
[10:59] <emil> Yesterday someone told me how to solve a sound problem on Flash, it worked, but now i restarted m PC, and it doesn't work anymore
[10:59] <Jowi> glatzee: then we can rule out that a user config file is wrong at least. how did you upgrade kde?
[11:00] <glatzee> Jowi: With jriddells rep, dist-upgrade
[11:00] <codecaine> when I click on a link on here or on gaim this link comes up all the time http://www.arizona.edu/styleguide/seal.php
[11:00] <codecaine> whys that?
[11:00] <Jerr> hey, whats the package name to compile stuff?
[11:00] <Jowi> glatzee: maybe you should try to downgrade to the official ubuntu one.
[11:00] <skavenge> Jerr: build-essential
[11:00] <Jerr> thanks
[11:00] <glatzee> Jowi: How do I do that?
[11:00] <Jowi> glatzee: no idea :)
[11:01] <wachunei> hi there

[11:02] <wachunei> i need a free one
[11:02] <Emilia-> hey can i make command that runs under some spesific terminal?
[11:02] <Jowi> glatzee: I would apt-get remove the kde i just installed. remove the jriddell repo, apt-get update and apt-get install the kubuntu-desktop package
[11:03] <Emilia-> can i make some script that run some command in some console
[11:03] <Emilia-> that it opens console
[11:03] <jdmpike> SanketMedhi, what am I doing wrong?

[11:03] <Emilia-> in that console
[11:03] <wachunei> ?
[11:03] <Emilia-> like gnome-terminal   ls
[11:03] <Emilia-> so it makes the ls command in gnome-terminal

[11:04] <codecaine> where is the $PATH varible at on ubuntu?
[11:04] <codecaine> where is the varible loaded at
[11:04] <idefix_> do you guys turn your PC's of at night to save electricity or are you afraid your PC will become slower when shutting down and starting up often?
[11:04] <Jowi> glatzee: maybe someone else in here is using that repo...?
[11:04] <jdmpike> SanketMedhi, then I try to run winecfg, nothing...
[11:04] <jdmpike> SanketMedhi, I try to run wine, I get file/directory not found
[11:05] <SanketMedhi> jdmpike: what did you do?
[11:05] <cpk2> idefix_: i enjoy my uptime and as such only reboot when i _have_ to =P
[11:05] <idefix_> cpk2 so you leave your PC on at night then
[11:05] <jdmpike> SanketMedhi, I don't know
[11:05] <tsume> Jowi: 54F here in Homer, Alaska
[11:05] <Dasnipa`> idefix_, computer's power consumption is minimal at best
[11:05] <Lobster> save enegy and money is not goot for a growing enconomy
[11:05] <glatzee> Jowi: Its the official one, so It seems weird that it just crashed my system
[11:06] <bbrazil> idefix_: truning on and off electronics damages them slightly - especially with hard drives
[11:06] <SanketMedhi> jdmpike: what do you mean you don't know
[11:06] <Dasnipa`> similar consumption to running a single lightbulb all day
[11:06] <SanketMedhi> jdmpike: did you install the wine debs?
[11:06] <wachunei> i've tried to run counter strike in wine but it crashes and mada all my desktop crash...
[11:06] <wachunei> *made
[11:06] <rupert> hey, ive modprobed ndiswrapper, i have all the drivers, ndiswrapper tells me its cool, but wlan0 is nowhere to be found, any ideas what i coulda done wrong?
[11:06] <Jowi> tsume: oh how I envy you. 96.8F according to google here.
[11:06] <jdmpike> SanketMedhi, I downloaded the deb, installed with dpkg --force-architecture -i <package name>
[11:06] <tsume> Jowi: where are you at?
[11:06] <emil> Yesterday someone told me how to solve a sound problem on Flash, it worked, but now i restarted m PC, and it doesn't work anymore
[11:07] <jdmpike> SanketMedhi, tried to run wine, and I get a file not found... I do an ls -lrt on /usr/bin/ and wine is there
[11:07] <Jowi> glatzee: the official ubuntu one I meant.
[11:07] <SanketMedhi> jdmpike: you have to install two DEBs, one is wine and the other winelibs
[11:07] <emil> Yesterday someone told me how to solve a sound problem on Flash, it worked, but now i restarted m PC, and it doesn't work anymore
[11:07] <shari> Can someone tell me how to partition a Dell Inspiron for a dual Unbuntu linux boot?  I'm using Windows NT.
[11:07] <emil> Jowi?
[11:08] <dli> shari, boot ubuntu livecd, start gparted
[11:08] <Jowi> tsume: Paris, France. Bloody awful. each summer is the same. My third year and I will never get used to it
[11:08] <emil> Jowi: Weren't you that guy who helped me with the flash sound thing?
[11:08] <jdmpike> SanketMedhi, what are the winelibs?
[11:08] <cpk2> shari: the live cd should ask if you want to resize your existing space to use for linux?
[11:08] <Dasnipa`> "unbuntu" lol i like it
[11:08] <shari> yes
[11:08] <tsume> Jowi: france, almost 100F, you're kidding?
[11:08] <shari> it does
[11:08] <Jowi> emil: perhaps. :)
[11:08] <SanketMedhi> jdmpike: they are the wine libraries
[11:08] <kmag> so... I just had a power flicker during at apt-get dist-upgrade from breezy to dapper...
[11:08] <tsume> Jowi: I never imagined France as a hot country
[11:08] <emil> Jowi: Can you help me again?
[11:09] <Jowi> tsume: must be the smog that raises the temperature.
[11:09] <satempler> my madwifi card stoped working after a update
[11:09] <kmag> and my login is no longer graphical
[11:09] <Jowi> emil: what's your prob?
[11:09] <emil> There was some command, in terminal to activate sound on flash, then i restarted X and it worked..
[11:09] <satempler> not sure what happened
[11:09] <Jowi> tsume: me neither before i moved here
[11:09] <emil> But i restarted my Ubuntu, now it doesn't work anymore
[11:09] <cpk2> shari: you dont want to do that?
[11:09] <emil> You know, the Youtube sound thing
[11:09] <satempler> is there any way to get it back
[11:09] <shari> I am not certain how to configure the partitions
[11:09] <Jowi> emil: ummmm, i think you just symlinked the library... it is explained here
[11:09] <Jowi> !flash
[11:09] <ubotu> For multimedia issues, this page has useful information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats  -  See also http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/common-tasks-chap.html  -  But please use free formats if you can: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeFormats
[11:09] <kmag> how do I enable the graphical login?
[11:10] <Jowi> emil: it is on the restrictedformats page
[11:10] <emil> Ok
[11:10] <shari> i did it once and killed windows
[11:10] <tsume> emil: I recommend turning logging on your irc client. its helpful
[11:10] <dli> shari, resize the ntfs partition, then, use the free space after resizing to install ubuntu
[11:10] <satempler> is the linux-restricted-modules suposed to be updated with the main kernel
[11:10] <RRubin> kmag, if its not enabled, and you didnt disable it, its likely that its failed to start. you could try startingthe 'gdb' service (sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start) but i doubt it will work now if it didnt at boot
[11:10] <Jowi> emil: sudo ln -s /usr/lib/libesd.so.0 /usr/lib/libesd.so.1 (that should be a permanent solution though. not sure why you still have that problem)
[11:11] <shari> let me see what my options are, hang on
[11:11] <analiser> anyone:i cant put in monitor mode mi orinoco gold card on ubuntu 6.06..

[11:12] <[Wiebel] > Hi
[11:12] <[Wiebel] > anyone got networkmanager with vpn support working?
[11:12] <kmag> RRubin: I don't have x-common installed
[11:12] <jdmpike> SanketMedhi, where do you get the 32bit libraries?
[11:12] <RRubin> kmag: huh. apt-get install ubuntu-desktop
[11:12] <kmag> RRubin: is that supposed to happen?
[11:12] <idefix_> Dasnipa` but eight hours of sleep times 50/1000 times 50 cents per kWh is more the money for a new PC/the number of nights of decreased computer length caused by leaving the PC on at night!!
[11:12] <tsume> *sigh*
[11:12] <RRubin> kmap, though it looks like the us archive is down right now, so that might fail
[11:12] <kmag> RRubin: and why is apt-get asking me to insert the breezy CD?
[11:13] <piwi> I opened a .torrent file with Text Editor by doing "open with..." and now default handler for .torrent is text editor, not bittorrent anymore.... how to put bittorrent as the default handler?
[11:13] <kmag> RRubin: I just upgraded to Dapper
[11:13] <tsume> I want a prog which starts with with GNOME, has VPN, Wireless selection, and config support
[11:13] <tsume> everyone's progs just bite :(
[11:13] <RRubin> kmag, um. edit /etc/apt/sources.list and remove the CD from the top (just put a # in front to comment it out)
[11:13] <rupert> anyone wanna help me with ndiswrapper? i cant get it to make wlan0 show up
[11:13] <tsume> and ndis wrapper dconfig :)
[11:14] <SanketMedhi> jdmpike: http://www.winehq.com/site/download-deb
[11:14] <dli> rupert, can you find a native driver?
[11:14] <RRubin> anyone have news on whats up with the us mirror and an ETA?
[11:14] <rupert> no, ive never got one to work natively
[11:14] <rupert> i have the bcm4318 and ndiswrapper is really supposed to be the best option
[11:14] <XVampireX> Hi, I have a somewhat big problem... I installed amarok on ubuntu (Gnome) a while ago , and now for some reason I have kde services running in the background, sometimes taking over the whole system (As if I was running KDE...)
[11:14] <rupert> as far as i know
[11:15] <piwi> How to be able to see thumbnails for JPEG files when browsing in a soft (eg when changing display picture with kopete)?
[11:15] <kmag> hmm... 733 megabytes of stuff to install for ubuntu-destop :-(
[11:15] <dli> rupert, bcm43xx is in stable kernel 2.6.17
[11:15] <kmag> anyway, thanks everyone
[11:15] <tsume> XVampireX: oh, hey ther e:)
[11:15] <XVampireX> hi
[11:15] <Dasnipa`> idefix_, is doesnt end up being much money per year...
[11:15] <Dasnipa`> it*
[11:15] <rupert> no bcm43xx never worked for me
[11:15] <RRubin> rupert: i have a bcm4306, and it works natively in ubuntu 6.06 now. the linux kernel _just_ got support for broadcom cards.
[11:15] <tsume> XVampireX: are you running any Kde apps?
[11:15] <XVampireX> Well, no
[11:15] <Jowi> XVampireX: amarok uses qt so that is normal
[11:15] <XVampireX> I only have amarok installed
[11:15] <husky> http://en.fon.com/
[11:15] <idefix_> Dasnipa` http://www.microsoft.com/smallbusiness/resources/technology/hardware/do_you_need_to_turn_off_your_pc_at_night.mspx says it doesn't matter
[11:15] <rupert> yeah but thats a different model. the bcm4318 does not work natively period
[11:15] <XVampireX> that's related to KDE
[11:16] <RRubin> rupert: bummer :( i havnt tried ndiswrapper in 6.06 since it worked out of the box, sorry
[11:16] <tsume> XVampireX: are you starting amarok? the kdeinit procs will all start
[11:16] <piwi> I opened a .torrent file with Text Editor by doing "open with..." and now default handler for .torrent is text editor, not bittorrent anymore.... how to put bittorrent as the default handler?
[11:16] <Jowi> XVampireX: if I use totem in KDE i will see some gtk backends running
[11:16] <piwi> How to be able to see thumbnails for JPEG files when browsing in a soft (eg when changing display picture with kopete)?
[11:16] <emil> Jowi: I installed aoss and changed something on a line from a file, now it works, thanks
[11:16] <tsume> XVampireX: kdeinit saves memory :)
[11:16] <XVampireX> tsume, no, I don't have amarok running
[11:16] <RRubin> piwi: in firefox?
[11:16] <Jowi> emil: your welcome
[11:16] <jdmpike> SanketMedhi, mine looks for a 64 bit version of the packages, they don't work
[11:16] <tsume> XVampireX: they will still be running when you close amarok
[11:17] <XVampireX> and I'm talking about ALOT of KDE processes
[11:17] <tsume> XVampireX: how much is alot?
[11:17] <piwi> RRubin: both in firefox and in the explorer or whatever its called
[11:17] <XVampireX> some 10
[11:17] <tsume> XVampireX: sounds about right
[11:17] <shari> cpk2:  For partitioning for Ubuntu should I use largest continuous free space or manually edit the partition table?
[11:17] <Jowi> XVampireX: amarok is bound with both video and sound and graphical interface.
[11:18] <shari> I'm in the partitioner now
[11:18] <ironfroggy> is there some way to tell the kernel to use as little swap as possible? im trying to minimize disc access.
[11:18] <tsume> XVampireX: it would not only start kde, but probably artsd as well
[11:18] <tsume> XVampireX: so in reality. you might as well run KDE :)
[11:18] <dli> ironfroggy, disable swap :)
[11:18] <XVampireX> Yeah, but check it out... I'm trying to install mpd and this is what it gives me: serge@serge-desktop:~$ mpd
[11:18] <XVampireX> Creating link /home/serge/.kde/socket-serge-desktop.
[11:18] <XVampireX> can't create mcop directory
[11:18] <RRubin> piwi: right click on the file, select properties. choose the open with tab
[11:18] <chx> anyone has some idea where to find the package called 'orinoco' http://icfpc.plt-scheme.org/INSTALLED shows that there is one
[11:18] <SanketMedhi> jdmpike: sorry wrong link, one min
[11:18] <Bensr20> Can someone help me with mplayer? I changed the video codec family and now i get an error message that says "error opening/initializing the selected video_out (-vo) device." it will not allow me to change it back to none. Anyone know how I can reset it?
[11:18] <ironfroggy> dli: hmm.. i need swap!
[11:18] <analiser> anyone:i cant put in monitor mode mi orinoco gold card on ubuntu 6.06..
[11:19] <husky> http://en.fon.com/
[11:19] <dli> ironfroggy, if you want to minimize disk ops :) I do not use swap on my laptop
[11:19] <piwi> RRubin: will do, cheers!
[11:19] <chx> analiser: we are in the same boots
[11:19] <Dewbie> Bensr20, reinstall
[11:19] <chx> analiser: look at the link I pasted above. we need that package.
[11:19] <analiser> chx lol
[11:19] <Jowi> Bensr20: "mplayer -vo help" will give you a list of videosinks. use "mplayer -vo xv filename.avi" for example
[11:19] <Dewbie> should go back to default
[11:20] <RRubin> Bensr20: most settings are in /home/youruser/.something, so you could try deleting eg /home/youruser/.mplayer
[11:20] <ironfroggy> dli: anyway to dynamically enable it only when im plugged in?
[11:20] <Bensr20> Dewbie i removed it in the add/remove programs but that option stayed the same after the reinstall
[11:20] <Jowi> Bensr20: "none" should not be a valid option anyway :)
[11:20] <XVampireX> tsume
[11:20] <XVampireX> any idea?
[11:20] <dli> ironfroggy, swapon /dev/blah
[11:20] <analiser> hey chx let me see
[11:20] <Bensr20> jowi that is where it was when i first installed it and it worked fine then
[11:21] <piwi> !metacity
[11:21] <ubotu> I know nothing about metacity - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[11:21] <piwi> !xorg
[11:21] <ubotu> x is the X Window System; it's the part of your system that's responsible for graphical output. To restart your X, type this in a console: sudo /etc/init.d/?dm restart  -  To fix screen resolution or other X problems: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/FixVideoResolutionHowto
[11:21] <RRubin> Bensr20: also, you could try apt-get remove packagename --purge (removes all cfg files, too)
[11:21] <raf> hi folks
[11:21] <Jowi> Bensr20: sudo apt-get remove --purge should remove the config files
[11:21] <ironfroggy> dli: yeah i know that command but it doesnt know if im plugged in or not..
[11:21] <Bensr20> thanks everyone

[11:25] <analiser> apt-cache search orinoco

[11:27] <raj> hi guys
[11:27] <Jowi> !lamp
[11:27] <ubotu> lamp is a shortcut for Linux-Apache-Mysql-{PHP,Perl,Python}. To setup a LAMP server on Ubuntu, install the packages libapache2-mod-php5, php5-mysql, and mysql-server-5.0. You can also choose 'install a LAMP server' from the server install cd boot menu. See also https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP
[11:27] <johnm1019> khoda: right now us.archive.ubuntu.com is having DNS issues

[11:27] <Dasnipa`> raj can you join what?
[11:27] <ubotu> The linux terminal or command-line interface is very powerful. Open a terminal via applications -> accessories -> terminal (gnome) or kmenu -> system -> konsole (kde). Manuals: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BasicCommands
[11:27] <khoda> johnm1019: will it continue?
[11:27] <cpk2> khoda: lamp is pretty simple to do if you follow this https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP
[11:28] <khoda> johnm1019: if i keep waiting
[11:28] <XVampireX> tsume: So I guess you have no idea

[11:28] <cpk2> khoda: if you want to use apt-get just delete US in all the entries that have it

[11:29] <zukalk> rupert: i used to use ndiswrapper before Dapper, but it doesn't seem to work anymore. and apparently you have the same kind of wiki card as i do, the Broadcom 43xx. i followed a tutorial similar to this one to get things working: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=1071920&mode=linear
[11:29] <raj> yes via internet
[11:30] <wachunei> you are going to downnload like 700 MB
[11:30] <Jowi> shari: umm those numbers are confusing.  MB or GB?
[11:30] <cpk2> khoda: if you want to install with ap while the us archive is downt though you will need to delete US from all the entries that have it in sources.list
[11:30] <wachunei> sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[11:30] <shari> MB where stated
[11:30] <gatekeeper> raj: probable a good idea to backup data just in case of disaster
[11:30] <analiser> anyone:i cant put in monitor mode mi orinoco gold card on ubuntu 6.06..
[11:30] <raj> gatekeeper,  will do
[11:30] <raj> ty
[11:30] <khoda> cpk2: is it better to wait, then?
[11:30] <dli> c0de, clean up your sources.list, follow easysource
[11:30] <raj> wachunei,  ty
[11:30] <dli> !easysource > c0de
[11:30] <shari> Jowi it's a 40G machine, most of which are on the ntfs
[11:31] <shari> #2 primary
[11:31] <wachunei> raj: did it work?
[11:31] <gatekeeper> wachunei: update-manager seems to be more relaible, don't know why
[11:31] <raj> that is why i never use ntfs
[11:31] <troy1of2> Hey folks! I'm a newbie here and having some problems with permissions on one of my partitions. Anybody have time to help?
[11:31] <rupert> zukalk, i have the bcm 4318
[11:31] <raj> linux still has some issues with ntfs
[11:31] <c0de> dli: Do I just add the links to the end of source.list ?
[11:31] <wachunei> gatekeeper: it is the same :p
[11:31] <cpk2> khoda: it wont hurt to delete the us out, it will just default to the UK i think, you can edit it alter and put us back in if you want once the us.archive comes back up
[11:31] <raj> troy1of2,  plz ask
[11:31] <rupert> zukalk, its a specifically finicky card: It seems that if you get the following string back: Broadcom Corporation BCM4318 [AirForce One 54g]  802.11g Wireless LAN Controller (rev 02) that this guide is VERY unlikly to work for you although it does sometimes, dont ask me why, but basically every "no" vote and "this didnt work for me" post comes from a BCM4318 user....
[11:31] <Jowi> shari: 253MB will not be enough. you need a minimum 3.5GB for a normal ubuntu install - I recommend 6GB for the system and 20-40GB for the /home partition. and then a 512MB SWAP.
[11:32] <gatekeeper> wachunei: if only, when I tried the manual method open office didn't get installed, not sure what else I lost
[11:32] <rupert> zukalk, thanks for your help though, im going to restart and see if something i tried worked
[11:32] <akutz> hi
[11:32] <dli> c0de, no, replace the whole file
[11:32] <raj> wachunei,  i'm backing up data
[11:32] <wachunei> raj: okay :)
[11:32] <Jowi> shari: I would recommend you start up XP and move all you can to one partition to free up some space. then delete that empty partition.
[11:32] <akutz> Would this be the right place to ask questions with regard to compiz+Dapper?
[11:32] <wachunei> Who heres has a parition for /home and other for the system??
[11:33] <troy1of2> Okay, before I installed I read a tutorial on setting up a dual boot system for Windows XP and Linux. On it they said to create a partition and make it FAT32 for sharing data so that both OSs could use it. It seemed like a good idea so that's how I set it up.
[11:33] <Jowi> shari: it is much quicker to move files and delete the partition than it is to resize one.
[11:33] <shari> Jowi:  what's the partitioning utility in XP?  I'm a mac user, normally.
[11:33] <cpk2> khoda: you know how to edit your souces.list file?
[11:33] <raj> troy1of2,  kool i use dual boot too
[11:33] <troy1of2> So anyway, I have this 10Gig partition sitting there and when I boot into XP it recognizes it as a FAT 32, allows me to read, write, create folders, etc.. just fine.
[11:33] <Amaranth> crimsun: let me get the error message, hang on
[11:34] <Jowi> shari: I have no idea.... think it is located at admintools (or something similar) in the control panel.
[11:34] <troy1of2> I boot into Ubuntu and I can see the partition there. It shows the amount of space but at first I can't mount it.
[11:34] <c0de> dli: I don't understand what to do with the site you gave me
[11:34] <shari> Jowi, thank you.  I'll look into that.  Thanks
[11:34] <Jowi> shari: last time I used XP was three years ago :P
[11:34] <wachunei> sudo mkdir /media/docs
[11:34] <wachunei> sudo mount /dev/hda2 /media/docs -t vfat -o gid=1000,umask=0007,fmask=0117,utf8
[11:34] <ringard> what is the adduser syntax to add a current user to a group?
[11:35] <gdb> shari: Start -> Control Panel -> Administrative Tools -> Disk Administrator
[11:35] <dli> c0de, read, then, ask your questions
[11:35] <raj> troy1of2,  r u logged in as root?
[11:35] <analiser> hey chx Grab the drivers at the usual place : http://www.projectiwear.org/~plasmahh/orinoco.html
[11:35] <Amaranth> crimsun: basically vmware says /dev/dsp is busy and lsof says nothing is using it
[11:35] <Broadcast_> Hey, can anyone tell me a good source of hacking software for linux
[11:35] <Broadcast_> ?
[11:35] <ringard> adduser -group groupname username doesn't work
[11:35] <shari> Jowi:  No problem.  I'll try to figure it out.  Thanks for your recommedations; I'll see if I can cobble that together some how
[11:35] <Jowi> shari: gdb is your man :)
[11:35] <DIM> i recive error when i try to boot from cd :( it all starts up fine then after it loads drivers and what not it jumps to a dos window and says the error ima reboot and write it down but from what i seen its says something about i386 try i686
[11:35] <gdb> ringard: Unless the current user is root, you can't add the current user to any groups.
[11:35] <DIM> i run a pentuim d processor
[11:35] <gdb> ringard: You need to be root to add users to groups.
[11:35] <ringard> i sudo first
[11:35] <shari> gdb knows xp?
[11:35] <analiser> Broadcast_, the terminal
[11:36] <Broadcast_> yeah
[11:36] <analiser> hey chx Grab the drivers at the usual place : http://www.projectiwear.org/~plasmahh/orinoco.html
[11:36] <Broadcast_> where can i find tuts
[11:36] <Broadcast_> and stuff
[11:36] <crimsun> Amaranth: what in vmware is attempting to use it?
[11:36] <c0de> dli: I dunno wtf this dapper, breezy stuff is. I just recently got rid of Gentoo and I'm trying Ubuntu..so I'm new to all of this
[11:36] <troy1of2> Now, if I go into System/Adminitration/Disks and go to the Partition tab I can see the partition there, it's recognized as HDA5 but is inaccessible with no mount point. So I hit change, make a folder to use as and access point and I am then able to go in and read it but not write or change anything because I'm not the owner.
[11:36] <jaxB> hello; does anyone know if the apt sources are down?
[11:36] <analiser> Broadcast_, astalavista.box.sk
[11:36] <Amaranth> crimsun: err, i guess the guest OS
[11:36] <c0de> dli: All the stuff in source.list is commented
[11:36] <raj> c0de,  they r just names of new releases
[11:36] <dli> c0de, choose the current stable (dapper)
[11:36] <crimsun> Amaranth: I presume ``lsmod |grep ^snd_pcm_oss'' on the host returns the module?
[11:37] <dli> c0de, read easysource
[11:37] <DIM> can this be installed on a ntfs file system ?
[11:37] <analiser> chx: u read avove
[11:37] <raj> troy1of2,  ok gotcha
[11:37] <jaxB> seems like us.archive.ubuntu.com is down
[11:37] <shari> gdb:  I see above, sorry, missed that.  OK, will do
[11:37] <gatekeeper> jaxB: us ones yes, possible use ca
[11:37] <raj> u will have to login as root
[11:37] <gnomefreak> DIM: i dont think so. AFAIK it can be installed on FAT32
[11:37] <troy1of2> Well, if I go into a terminal as root I can change ownership of the folder and all that but when I go back in under GNOME it still says I can't do anything.
[11:37] <raj> and change permisson
[11:37] <jaxB> gatekeeper thanks will try
[11:37] <c0de> dli: I'm choosing dapper for everything on that site you gave me..
[11:38] <Amaranth> crimsun: yep
[11:38] <c0de> dli: Do I select packages or sources in each section ?
[11:38] <gatekeeper> jaxB: yw :-) everyone seems to be having problems
[11:38] <esc_ape> so, I'm trying to install dapper on my friends computer. the installer (text based alternate iso) keeps getting stuck at "configuring apt - scanning the mirror - 40%" no matter what. any ideas on what I should do?
[11:38] <troy1of2> Okay, so can I do that through a terminal or do I need to reboot and login as root into the GUI?
[11:38] <dli> c0de, you don't need src
[11:39] <c0de> dli: So choose packages for each section ?
[11:39] <dli> c0de, read!
[11:39] <raj> troy1of2,  well u an try from here
[11:39] <raj> open konsole, become a super user
[11:39] <robertj> esc_ape: check to see if the cd is bad
[11:39] <esc_ape> cd is fine. no errors
[11:39] <gatekeeper> esc_ape: us mirrors are down
[11:40] <crimsun> Amaranth: ok, I'm not familiar w/ what vmware's attempting to do
[11:40] <troy1of2> Okay, I have a console window open and am superuser in it.
[11:40] <esc_ape> gatekeeper: thanks. I thought something would be messed up with the mirrors
[11:40] <esc_ape> any idea when they'll be back up?
[11:40] <raj> troy type cat /etc/fstab
[11:40] <raj> do u see ur win partition there?
[11:40] <jaxB> works perfect thanks guys
[11:40] <gatekeeper> esc_ape: if the installer gives you a choice use ca
[11:41] <chx> aside from apt-cache search and google for a binary orinoco driver deb, any better ideas?
[11:41] <Amaranth> crimsun: it's ok, i know of a fix (it's a wrapper that makes vmware use esd) but i was hoping to make it work for real since it's faster that way
[11:41] <cpk2> esc_ape: nope, but it doesnt mean you cant keep installing packages! just remove US from all the entries in sources.list
[11:41] <crimsun> Amaranth: what type of wrapper is it?
[11:41] <Amaranth> crimsun: no idea, it's another binary blob
[11:42] <crimsun> Amaranth: ugh.
[11:42] <c0de> dli: Hmm, do I click every box that says give me a source list, or only click the last one ?
[11:42] <troy1of2> Okay, I did that. I'm seeing HDA4 is ext3, that's where I have ubuntu installed, then I have an HDA6 which is a swap partition, then my CDROM but I don't see the HDA5 here.
[11:42] <raj> troy1of2,  ok u will have to add hda5 settings there
[11:42] <Coffeegrinds> anyone have any recomendations on a vnc server
[11:43] <raj> open that file in gedit
[11:43] <billybennett> tightvnc
[11:43] <raj> gedit /etc/fstab
[11:43] <troy1of2> Okay, doing that now...
[11:43] <gdb> troy1of2: How do you have Ubuntu installed on hda4?  Which partition is your extended?
[11:43] <Coffeegrinds> coo, thanks
[11:43] <gnomefreak> DIMMER80: ask in the channel not in my /notice nor in my PM thank you
[11:44] <troy1of2> Well, it opened, but it said this while opening:
[11:44] <troy1of2> GnomeUI-WARNING **: While connecting to session manager:
[11:44] <troy1of2> Authentication Rejected, reason : None of the authentication protocols specified are supported and host-based authentication failed.
[11:44] <gatekeeper> raj: he will want  sudo gedit /etc/fstab
[11:44] <esc_ape> ok looks like the us mirror is back up...or the installer skipped the mirror scanning. everything is installing now
[11:44] <rudefyet> ok i installed network-manager and it works flawlessy with my WPA  network...but I can't seem to connect to any unsecured networks with it
[11:44] <gnomefreak> DIMMER80: i asked you not to do that
[11:44] <DIMMER80> np gnome i had a notice from you didnt know how ya wanted me to respond
[11:44] <raj> gatekeeper, he is superuser
[11:44] <gatekeeper> raj: ok
[11:45] <analiser> hey chx Grab the drivers at the usual place : http://www.projectiwear.org/~plasmahh/orinoco.html
[11:45] <c0de> dli: Ok nvm. Now that my source.list file is totally new, do I do a apt-get update now ?
[11:45] <raj> troy1of2,  u did open that file as super user ?
[11:45] <dli> c0de, yes
[11:46] <troy1of2> Yes, it's open.
[11:46] <zukalk> is it possible for gstreamer to handle mms:// ? seems there's a gstreamer0.8-mms package, but nothing for GStreamer 0.10. what should i do?
[11:46] <raj> troy1of2,  ok
[11:46] <troy1of2> Not sure what to do next though.
[11:46] <raj> now add the /dev/hda5 partition there
[11:46] <c0de> dli: Ok, this came up at the bottom. Reading package lists... Done
[11:46] <c0de> W: GPG error: ftp://cipherfunk.org breezy Release: The following signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY 4CF19C3233BAC1B3
[11:46] <c0de> W: You may want to run apt-get update to correct these problems
[11:46] <chx> analiser: those are _not_ binary.
[11:47] <chx> analiser: unless i am missing something obvious
[11:47] <raj> /dev/hda5      /mnt/c     vfat    defaults        0       0
[11:47] <gdb> c0de: I thought you said you were selecting dapper respositories?
[11:47] <dli> c0de, use offical ubuntu only :)
[11:47] <raj> replace /mnt/c with whatever mount point u made for ur win partition
[11:47] <c0de> Ok
[11:47] <raj> ok troy?
[11:48] <troy1of2> Okay, working on it.
[11:48] <analiser> a ok sorry
[11:49] <troy1of2> Okay, I ended up with this then. Does it look okay?
[11:49] <troy1of2> Oops.
[11:49] <troy1of2> dev/hda5        /home/troy/shared     vfat    defaults        0       0
[11:49] <raj> it is /dev/hda5
[11:49] <rraphink> vfat doesn't look ok
[11:49] <rraphink> because vfat sucks
[11:49] <c0de> dli: W: GPG error: ftp://cipherfunk.org dapper Release: The following signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY 4CF19C3233BAC1B3
[11:49] <rraphink> and yes as raj says there's a dash missing :)
[11:49] <gatekeeper> troy1of2: got an empty line at the bottom of the file?
[11:50] <Southron> I'm trying to install Edubuntu 6.06 from CD-R onto an HP Pavillion 6636. It boots from the CD and begins the installation, getting through all the language steps, but then complains that it can't find the CD-ROM drive (even thought it obviously has been using it up to that point). Any ideas?
[11:50] <troy1of2> Yes, but when I left the / in for some reason my chat client thought I was sending a command.
[11:50] <Jowi> troy1of2: you might want to add this after defaults ",umask=000" so that all users can write to it.
[11:50] <raj> troy1of2,  oh ok
[11:50] <c0de> dli: Maybe I dont need that, its for like win32 codecs...lemme take that line out and try again
[11:50] <raj> rest is ok, save change , close file, reboot
[11:50] <raj> see if it works
[11:50] <rraphink> troy1of2: you can put a space before quoting, then ;)
[11:50] <raj> good luck
[11:50] <troy1of2> Okay, Jowi, should I leave the quotes in?
[11:50] <rraphink> raj : reboot ???
[11:51] <rraphink> troy1of2: no need to reboot, just `sudo mount -a`
[11:51] <c0de> dli: Ok that worked. Now how do I get gcc or synaptic?
[11:51] <raj> rraphink,  lol , i know it is not necassary
[11:51] <RetroMan> hi, what do I do if a ubuntu apt server seems to be down, and I cant install/update packages?
[11:51] <raj> but bad windows habit
[11:51] <raj> =))
[11:51] <Jowi> troy1of2: "defaults,umask=000" without quotes
[11:51] <rraphink> raj: waste of time mostly
[11:51] <gdb> c0de: to get gcc, "sudo apt-get install build-essential"
[11:51] <rraphink> mount -a takes 10 secones
[11:51] <raj> rraphink, sorry
[11:51] <rraphink> secondes
[11:51] <rraphink> reboot takes 3 minutes
[11:51] <raj> yes i know
[11:52] <c0de> dli: Ok thanks. Now what about synaptic ?
[11:52] <binary1> im having a problem when i use apt-get is says connecting to us.archive.ubuntu.com, but it never connects, can some please help?
[11:52] <troy1of2> Ok, I did the sudo mount -a
[11:52] <gdb> c0de: It's already installed.  System -> Administration -> Synaptic Package Manager
[11:52] <raj> troy1of2,  now chk that folder
[11:53] <RetroMan> binary1 I'm having the same problem
[11:53] <raj> if it is there or not
[11:53] <gatekeeper> binary1: they are down, remove .us in your sources.list
[11:53] <troy1of2> Well, it's letting me in. Still can't create a folder in it though.
[11:53] <cpk2> gatekeeper: its us. =P
[11:53] <c0de> dli: Ok could you help me with 2 more things if you don't mind ?
[11:53] <gatekeeper> binary1: us. sorry
[11:53] <Jowi> troy1of2: ooops, forgot. replace "defaults,umask=000" with "defaults,user,umask=000"
[11:53] <gdb> Is there a status on why they're down and an ETA on when they'll be available again?
[11:54] <gatekeeper> cpk2: ooops sorry
[11:54] <raj> troy1of2,  still cant?
[11:54] <binary1> how do i open my source file again in gedit??
[11:54] <Southron> Is there anyone who might help me with some installation problems?
[11:54] <raj> gatekeeper,  do u think he needs to add rw in fstab for vfat partition?
[11:55] <raj> gatekeeper,  he still cant write
[11:55] <element`ubuntu> what's the command to see what packages need to be updated?
[11:55] <c0de> dli: Could you tell me how to add fvwm-crystal into the gdm menu ?
[11:55] <troy1of2> Still no folder creation.
[11:55] <gatekeeper> raj: possible
[11:55] <Jowi> troy1of2: did you add "user"?
[11:55] <troy1of2> Okay, here's my line in fstab as it looks now:
[11:56] <troy1of2>  /dev/hda5        /home/troy/shared     vfat    defaults,user,umask=000
[11:56] <gatekeeper> raj: http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/fstab.html
[11:56] <dli> c0de, you want to run fvwm with gnome?
[11:56] <c0de> dli: Yeah. I want to be able to pick fvwm from the gdm screen
[11:56] <Jowi> troy1of2: should be "/dev/hda5        /home/troy/shared     vfat    defaults,user,umask=000   0    0"
[11:56] <raj> troy1of2,  it is wrong
[11:56] <troy1of2> ok
[11:57] <gatekeeper> raj: possible now definately :-)
[11:57] <raj> gatekeeper, lol
[11:57] <raj> troy1of2,  add rw too
[11:57] <troy1of2> rw where?
[11:57] <dli> c0de, you mean run fvwm only , or fvwm in gnome?
[11:58] <binary1> i open /etc/apt/sources.lst with gedit and its blank, is that right?
[11:58] <c0de> dli: I want to run fvwm but if I dont like it, I wanna be able to switch back to gnome or fluxbox
[11:58] <gatekeeper> troy1of2 may be you should pastebin when you are done so raj can take a look just an idea guys
[11:58] <Jowi> rw should not be necessary for vfat
[11:58] <Jack_Sparrow> 115meg so far..
[11:58] <Coffeegrinds> ok .. so I have got tightvnc to work, now how can i get it to either display  my 0 session instead of defaulting to session 1, I've tried appending :0 but itells me a vnc services is already running ..
[11:58] <Jack_Sparrow> Sorry
[11:58] <raj> /dev/hda5        /home/troy/shared     vfat    defaults,user,rw,umask=000   0    0
[11:58] <eddie> ..
[11:58] <sysdoc> Anyone else having problems with this server? >http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/
[11:58] <verbose> Coffeegrinds: is vino running?
[11:58] <binary1> yes
[11:59] <dli> c0de, the problem is gnome is DE, not a wm, you can switch, but not simply as switching wms
[11:59] <binary1> i am and im trying to configure the sources file
[11:59] <Coffeegrinds> i don't beleive so .. It shouldn't be
[11:59] <raj> gatekeeper,  it is a  awesome site
[11:59] <c0de> dli: Ah ok. So how do I run fvwm only then?
[11:59] <_Spire_> sysdoc: it's been down since around noon CST
[11:59] <binary1> wanted to know if where i was, was correct
[11:59] <sysdoc> _Spire_, thx
[11:59] <dli> c0de, choose fvwm in gdm before login
[11:59] <Coffeegrinds> not showing in my process list
[11:59] <Hexidigital_> are the US repos down?
[11:59] <dli> c0de, that's the easiest
[11:59] <c0de> dli: Its not in there
[11:59] <troy1of2> Tried that, still not letting me write though for some reason.
[11:59] <_Spire_> Hexidigital_: yup. been down since around noon CST
[12:00] <Hexidigital_> _Spire_::  thanks :)
[12:00] <raj> troy1of2,  u saved changes?
[12:00] <_Spire_> Hexidigital_: at least for me
[12:00] <dli> c0de, install fvwm and restart gdm
[12:00] <shari_> gdb:  Im in the admin tools, the 34GB nfts seems to be my only bet.  I don't see where the files are on this, though
[12:00] <raj> unmount drive
[12:00] <binary1> i open /etc/apt/sources.lst with gedit and its blank, is that right?
[12:00] <raj> remount it again
[12:00] <gatekeeper> sysdoc: yes everyone
[12:00] <gatekeeper> sysdoc: they are down
