Comments:

<0> if you can switch, try Ctrol-Alt-Fx (I do not remember exact console number, try F4 or F3) - and look if there is anything 'interesting' at the end of log
<1> hastesaver: e.g. mount-iso ~/my_cd.iso
<2> "hangs" means it just displays "loading hardware drivers" "failed" and nothing works until I reset
<3> hey can someone tell me the easiest way it is to install ubuntu from a samba or nfs share? i have this laptop which keeps having problems reading from cd's, it can boot ok from them and function most of the time (slowly) but the cdrom is flaky and i'd rather do it over the lan
<4> kallei: I guess you need to set the clock speed right, don't know how though. Thru the bios I guess
<5> IvanDragomilov, it would be 5.10
<6> Samus_Aran: I found a script somewhere that when you right click on an iso, it says "mount ISO image"
<5> !mountiso
<7> To mount an ISO image file, you can use "sudo mount -o loop <image-file> <mount-point>" from a shell (for example, "sudo mount -o loop Ubuntu.iso /mnt/loop", if /mnt/loop exists)
<8> thx
<1> ompaul: the alias I made up does not require root permissions, as it is set up using a symlink and an entry in /etc/fstab
<9> Warbo, you mean this? http://ubuntu.wordpress.com/2005/10/24/nautilus-script-to-mount-iso-files/
<5> Samus_Aran, fstab requires mount which requires root
<6> Morden: Probably the same, but the page I found wasn't Ubuntu specific
<0> timmyp3: what about livecd, does it start?
<9> warbo: ok ^^



<5> Samus_Aran, or should I say sudo ;-)
<10> cool
<10> maybe this is a good sign
<2> xpil: let me check
<10> now it says Scanning CD-rom
<1> ompaul: I mean it is a one-time setup of /etc/fstab, and from then on the regular user can mount any image they want
<11> ompaul: there?
<12> Hello. I'm having som troubles. I am following https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FakeRaidHowto?highlight=%28dmraid%29#head-49fd6b645bc69ef6a6f4b12830dfa0b8d7b2cba5 But I get the following error invoke-rc.d: initscript dmraid, action "start" failed. What to do now?
<5> Samus_Aran, makes sense, so ehh never thought of the world like that before
<6> Samus_Aran: The best way for user-level mounting would be to somehow tell gnome-vulume-manager about the image
<1> in my /etc/fstab I have a line like this: /tmp/temp.iso udf,iso9660 loop,ro,unhide,user,noauto,uid=1000,gid=0 0 0
<11> ompaul: the mouse works fine with debian
<1> oops, forgot the second part: /tmp/temp.iso /mnt/cd_image
<13> akudewan: its right in the bios ...
<5> viyyer, looks like the fs got a fright alright - you could try sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg to have it check for the mouse again
<11> ompaul: there should be some way to get it working with ubuntu??
<1> and the alias symlinks the file you give it to /tmp/temp.iso and then mounts it loopback
<11> ompaul: strange but true.. but dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg doesn't ask me a question about the type of mouse.
<1> Warbo: I am unfamiliar with gnome-volume-manager, but being that I am very often on the command line and still wanting things to work .. [without X]
<14> has anyone managed to get a sony vaio memorystick reader working in their laptop ?
<6> viyyer: Should ask "PS/2 or ImPS/2"
<11> ompaul: there is no file of name /dev/psaux
<11> Warbo: it doesn't
<0> is there anybody that has properly installed php with ibm iseries odbc drivers? I would like to switch from Win32 XAMPP to dapper LAMPP, but I can't find out how to query database from php code. I can run queries from the commandline, so I presume that mu oDBC drivers are configured properly, but I can't run queries from inside php
<5> viyyer, ehh it does on my machines - and ehh it looks like your fs took a hammering :-(
<6> viyyer: You can edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf with an example file open and put a mouse entry in it
<11> ompaul: XFS is usually pretty stable.. I used it at my previous office servers.. where the ups failed
<11> not too rarely
<11> Warbo: which mouse do I add
<6> viyyer: XFS is good for HUGE files
<11> as there is no /dev/psaux ??
<6> viyyer: I think mine is set to /dev/mouse, I will check
<1> viyyer: just use /dev/input/mice and it will use all available mice
<11> Warbo: there is no /dev/mouse
<6> viyyer: It is /dev/input/mice
<5> viyyer, well look at the evidence - something is wrong - pop the drive into your brothers PC and see if it works there - maybe the motherboard took a hammering but it does not seem likely, there is some little nasty there - I would be looking at a reinstall - but that is just me
<11> Warbo: no /dev/input/mouse
<6> viyyer: mice
<4> kallei: I might be wrong about "cat /proc/cpuinfo"
<11> ompaul: as I said.. as the mouse works fine on my debian boot.. MoBo issue can be ruled out
<5> viyyer, crw-rw---- 1 root root 13, 63 2006-06-11 09:19 /dev/input/mice devfs is not udev by a long chalk lots of things have moved around
<11> Warbo: not /dev/input :)
<1> viyyer: /dev/input/mice is a special device which combines all mice into a single device. this way if you plug a USB mouse in while in X, it will just appear onscreen immediately, no restart needed
<15> ive got an odd little error, i had the nvidia-glx driver installed but its broken for savage. SO, i installed official nvidia drivers and now i get an API mismatch error with nvidia driver version 7174?! crazy. any ideas? only way to get the b**tard to work is to 'sudo rmmod nvidia && sudo modprobe nvidia' after it fails to load...
<2> xpil: when I try to boot using the LiveCD I get "OK, booting the kernel. ACPI: Unable to locate RSDP."
<15> also, /etc/init.d/nvidia isnt getting run
<6> viyyer: Well /dev/input/mice works for me (but I am trying to fiddle with it so that my graphics tablet is handled seperately)
<5> viyyer, then you have said it yourself, it used to work, it stopped working on a hard power off - the fs needs a good checking and may be damaged
<5> viyyer, who knows what happens to a disk in a power off write wait state
<11> ompaul: but.. I just booted it just now on the debian partition to check ... and X works there
<5> viyyer, your ubuntu partition seems to be damaged
<11> ompaul: alrite.. lemme go to init one and xfs check it :)
<3> could someone tell me how to verify packages with apt? cheers
<3> like all packages on the system
<6> Toma-: Remove every nvidia driver you have (packages and "official" .run file) and start from scratch. It is a bad idea to install a different method when you have bits of the old one lying around
<15> Warbo: i already did that
<11> ompaul: Warbo thanks.. I'll be back :) hopefully not
<15> the strange thing is, ive never had 7174 version installed
<5> viyyer, I do not believe that the fsck is going to help
<5> viyyer, overwrite a file and bingo
<11> ompaul: overwrite which file ??



<6> Toma-: Did you remove nvidia-glx, linux-restricted-modules-<kernelversion>, nvidia-kernel-<kernelversion> and nvidia-kernel-source ?
<15> oh! restricted modules?
<6> Toma-: Well, if you don't need them for anything else (MadWifi, etc.)
<15> nope!~ :D
<16> how can I make a screen capture of xgl/compiz? Want to show off the effects to a friend.. I'm using amd64.
<5> viyyer, think about it for a moment some random part of your FS that deals with /dev or the mouse or hal or something -- who knows you had a power cut you don't know what happened in the last few milliseconds before the lights went out
<17> How do I set my console to use 1600x1200? I have tried with vga=795, but it tells me that is an invalid value on bootup.
<15> Warbo: linux-386 is a meta-package right?
<6> snoops: The best method is Istanbul, but that still uses gstreamer0.8 and is broken in Dapper. Next best is xscreencap
<6> Toma-: Yes
<15> ok thx
<16> will xscreencap give me fluid video?
<6> snoops: As long as your computer is fast enough (AMD64 probably is)
<2> Any one have an idea as the cause of a message of "Unable to locate RSDP" while attempting to install Dapper?
<16> yeah a 4400+
<18> Warbo, what is xscreencap? it isn't in the repos. (And why is istanbul broken? )
<1> Toma-: the nVIDIA official files have an uninstall option which is useful for cleaning up
<1> Toma-: and then force-reinstall the Ubuntu ones
<6> snoops: Errr..... No, it won't work. You could try it on my computer, want to swap? :)
<11> ompaul: what do you think is the solution... ?
<15> Samus_Aran: i think ive got it covered :D thanks
<6> snoops: (joke)
<11> ompaul: you mean re-install ?
<5> viyyer, glad you see it my way, it is not trustworthy the way it is
<11> ompaul: comeon... all my cutomization... and.. all my packes to be downloaded again
<6> hastesaver: xvidcap may be in the repos. Istanbul uses gstreamer0.8 but I don't know if that is why it is broken (it worked for me in Breezy, but not Dapper)
<16> haha ;)
<5> viyyer, trust the filesystem them
<19> salut
<20> i've a big ogg file and i should see the first 10 mb of it, i've ssh access, is there a way to copy in a new file only 10M of this big file?
<21> "-add "/usr/bin/startcompiz" to gnome session startup programs" --> what that thing means? and how to do that? is it possible to do that in terminal?
<11> ompaul: come on.. The power situation is not gonna be beter in india eitherways
<16> where do I get xscreencap from?
<11> ompaul: I could go crazy :(
<15> ok rebooting! thanks Warbo
<6> Hattori: You can add that line to a file called ".gnomerc" in your home folder (it will be a new file)
<5> viyyer, your got by catch 22, you don't know nor do I what is wrong with that disk - but we both know one thing, it is not stable at this time
<6> ompaul: Catch22 would be: The disk has failed, the solution to fix it is on the disk :)
<21> Warbo: "sudo pico /home/me/.gnomerc" and paste "/usr/bin/startcompiz"?
<11> ompaul: true...lemme do a xfs_check and lemme take it from there
<6> Hattori: Yes
<21> k thx
<22> how do you set gnome to use p***ive ftp in nautilus?
<6> Hattori: Depending on what is in that startcompiz script you may want to put "/usr/bin/startcompiz &"
<1> anyone know any pretty games from multiverse ? there are a billion of them in there, feel like trying something
<18> viyyer, what about the power situation in India? :) (Let me guess, you dared to use a computer without a UPS?) ;)
<11> hastesaver: no the voltage fluctuated enough to conk the UPS..
<18> Samus_Aran, frozen bubble, supertux, enigma are my favourite, but they're all silly games :)
<15> works great! thx again Warbo :)
<6> Samus_Aran: sudo apt-get install beneath-a-steel-sky
<0> timmyp3: have you tried to find this message on google? I'm afraid I won't help you anymore, because I've never sesn such message before
<21> Warbo: http://rafb.net/paste/results/OQ4x1i58.html
<11> here... even line conditioner fail sometimes
<15> Samus_Aran: what kind of game u after?
<18> viyyer, whoa. The UPS is supposed to take care of any possible voltage fluctuation; sorry to hear that
<11> hastesaver: the worst and most expensive UPS in india is APC
<6> Hattori: OK, you don't need the & (because it is in that script)
<23> anyone succesfully compile otrproxy and could possibly point me to some hints?
<24> A lot of my preferences have been reset (gnome panel, gaim, xchat....) why would that be?
<22> APC make very decent UPS -- I have one at the office; and it has saved my butt so many times.
<11> hastesaver: they sell you a UPS with is ghastly expensive and as you to buy a line conditioner as comparable by expense
<15> rixth: new /home folder?
<24> Toma-, nope. I just logged in and they had gone
<11> fyrestrtr: depends on the kind of power lines you have
<11> anyways..
<15> rixth: have you got /home on a different partition?
<24> Yes
<16> Warbo where would I get xscreencap?
<15> partition mounted?
<24> Not all of my preferences have been reest though, not all of them.
<25> anybody here who's using dell 510m?
<18> fyrestrtr, you don't live in India. I heard from someone (may be a joke, though) that the strongest UPSes are made in India; because western countries don't know how bad voltage fluctations can be :)
<16> google for xscreencap only returns 3 results :(
<6> snoops: Wait a minute... I think it is actually called xvidcap :)
