| Stwange | ikonia, I considered contacting the technical support, but then I figured if it's the same connection, same MAC address and same card, they probably wouldn't get any extra details at their end (ie then don't know which OS I'm using), so it was probably a ubuntu issue | 00:00 |
|---|
| ikonia | soundray_: thats plausable but it appears to be some sort of credentials auth thats being offered | 00:00 |
|---|
| ikonia | Stwange: they will get info as they may see things change in their logs | 00:00 |
|---|
| timewriter | im away for a while | 00:00 |
|---|
| soundray_ | Stwange: but really, I think your network support people should know what you need to do. | 00:00 |
|---|
| soundray_ | Stwange: unless they are a stubborn blockhead MS shop, which universities fortunately tend not to be. | 00:01 |
|---|
| Stwange | thanks ikonia and soundray_. I'll try contacting them, but there's usually limited support for linux | 00:01 |
|---|
| Stwange | yeah :) | 00:01 |
|---|
| ikonia | Stwange: it won't matter your OS, your interested in their access logs | 00:01 |
|---|
| ikonia | Stwange: shouldn't matter what OS you have, more a case of what's changing in their logs | 00:01 |
|---|
| soundray_ | Stwange: you just need to find the nerd who's on your side then ;) | 00:01 |

| FireHazard17 | Should I use 64 bit? I am using hardy. flash isn't too neccessary. | 00:02 |
|---|
| FireHazard17 | also I am using gnome. | 00:02 |
|---|
| ikonia | FireHazard17: 1.) why are you using hardy 2.) why do you want 64bit | 00:02 |
|---|
| soundray_ | FireHazard17: if you have to ask that, I would strongly advise against trying hardy | 00:02 |

| slimaq | hi i have intel 3100 and when i strat movie in fullscreen he laginig | 00:02 |

| Zionad_ | FireHazard: 64 bit, is basically a headache, especcially wouldnt try it in hardyy.. | 00:02 |

| FireHazard17 | wow you guys are negative | 00:03 |
|---|
| Stwange | thanks ikonia and soundray_. I've gtg, but if they don't fix it I'll be back Schwarzenegger style ;) | 00:03 |
|---|
| ikonia | FireHazard17: no, we are realistic in offering sound advice | 00:03 |
|---|
| Zionad_ | Exactly | 00:03 |
|---|
| Slart | FireHazard17: 32-bit gutsy would be a more ... pleasurable experience =).. less bumps on the way.. | 00:03 |

|---|
| FireHazard17 | If it wasn't for trying new unstable thing 7/10 of us wouldn't be using linux | 00:03 |
|---|
| soundray_ | FireHazard17: no, we just hear the squeals of people who have burnt themselves with alpha software everyday. So any pre-alpha software will probably be worse. | 00:03 |
|---|
| ikonia | slimaq: is the movie hd | 00:03 |

| n15t0 | timewriter:can u help me out? | 00:04 |
|---|
| FireHazard17 | ok then | 00:04 |
|---|
| Slart | FireHazard17: but if you don't mind tinkering.. compiling.. bug-reporting and such.. go ahead with 64-bit hardy | 00:04 |
|---|
| soundray_ | FireHazard17: unfortunately your question indicates that you're not one of the select few who will negotiate the hurdles successfully. | 00:04 |
|---|
| bulmer | Templar-> you can /etc/init.d/gdm stop? | 00:04 |
|---|
| ikonia | FireHazard17: use what you want, but remember you will get no support for hardy as a user | 00:04 |
|---|
| FireHazard17 | Slart: I love doing those things | 00:04 |
|---|
| ikonia | FireHazard17: you have the warnings and the options, do with it as you will | 00:05 |
|---|
| desertc | FireHazard17: Give it a shot!! Just create a new partition and you can leave an existing partition available for fall-back. | 00:05 |
|---|
| Slart | FireHazard17: then don't let us stop you.. go install 64bit hardy | 00:05 |
|---|
| soundray_ | FireHazard17: go ahead then, and remember the IRC channel is #ubuntu+1 | 00:05 |
|---|
| FireHazard17 | 60% of my software is compiled from source anyway | 00:05 |
|---|
| ikonia | FireHazard17: then you will break your package manager. good luck | 00:05 |
|---|
| Zionad_ | Then you are welcome to try firehazard! | 00:05 |
|---|
| Zionad_ | Haha, oh wow | 00:05 |
|---|
| soundray_ | ikonia: I agree, we are negative ;) | 00:06 |
|---|
| ikonia | having a package manager conflict in a fast changing development release = doom | 00:06 |
|---|
| * IndyGunFreak agrees w/ ikonia | 00:06 |

|---|

| ikonia | dablueman: no, speak in the channel | 00:20 |
|---|
| dablueman | ok wait 30 secs | 00:20 |

| Slart | dablueman: they fix bugs.. they might not fix a specific bug right away.. but eventually they'll get to it.. if you want it fixed, have a go at it yourself.. or if you've got lots of cash hire someone to do it.. | 00:20 |

| whileimhere | Slart how can I check it? | 00:28 |
|---|
| dablueman | a workaround it is then | 00:28 |
|---|
| robr | ikonia: i don't know the default? | 00:29 |
|---|
| ikonia | dablueman: there is already a work around in the bug report | 00:29 |
|---|
| Slart | whileimhere: you can check by running "sudo iptables -L" if there are more than about 3 lines of output it's probably active | 00:29 |
|---|
| ikonia | robr: there is no firewall running by default | 00:29 |
|---|
| dablueman | very well | 00:29 |
|---|
| === Carnage` is now known as Carnage\ |
| robr | ikonia: ok thanks for the info | 00:29 |
|---|
| whileimhere | Slart there are about well 3 lines | 00:29 |
|---|
| dablueman | do ubuntu developers get paid to work on ubuntu | 00:30 |
|---|
| ikonia | dablueman: some do | 00:30 |
|---|
| Slart | whileimhere: then the firewall is just letting everything through.. disabled if you want | 00:30 |
|---|
| dablueman | really | 00:30 |
|---|
| ikonia | dablueman: yes | 00:30 |
|---|
| dablueman | how come they get paid, are they special or something? | 00:30 |
|---|
| ikonia | dablueman: companies sponsor them, but this is offtopic | 00:30 |
|---|
| dablueman | offtopic, its about ubuntu | 00:31 |
|---|
| dablueman | ubuntu support | 00:31 |
|---|
| dablueman | :) | 00:31 |
|---|
| Slart | whileimhere: are you behind some kind of router? perhaps you need to setup some kind of forwarding rule.. | 00:31 |
|---|
| dablueman | I have the feeling that I'm bugging you, so I'll stop talking to you for a while. | 00:31 |
|---|
| ikonia | dablueman: this is a support channel, not a chat channel | 00:32 |
|---|
| dablueman | very well | 00:32 |
|---|
| whileimhere | Slart: I set up the port forwarding just like normal with GTK-GNUTELLA but amule says I am firewalled. I double checked the prefs as well | 00:32 |
|---|
| andre | Hello every body | 00:32 |
|---|
| ikonia | whileimhere: it is probably your router | 00:32 |
|---|
| ping | how do you get your windows to have different effects when they vanish | 00:32 |
|---|
| Paddy_EIRE | is there an mplayer key combo for disabling subtitles | 00:33 |
|---|
| scguy318 | whileimhere: aMule probably uses a different port which you have to forward, or am I misreading your issue? | 00:33 |
|---|
| andre | Do you konw a little bit about alsa and external sound card ? | 00:33 |
|---|
| whileimhere | When I log into the router (aka my DSL modem) I check the firewall settings and they say that the firewall is off and allowing all traffic. | 00:33 |
|---|
| Slart | whileimhere: hmm.. perhaps you forgot some ports? forwarded the wrong ones? didn't apply your changes? what ports are we talking about btw? under 1024? | 00:33 |
|---|
| ikonia | whileimhere: you probably need portforwarding | 00:34 |
|---|
| Extravert | can someone plz hlep me. At random times my sound driver becomes unable to open and unknown | 00:34 |
|---|
| scguy318 | whileimhere: but the forwarding rules still need to be established, else how can your router map outgoing connections to internal endpoints? | 00:34 |
|---|
| whileimhere | Scguy318 no I want to use amule which I set up for port 5000 | 00:34 |
|---|
| scguy318 | whileimhere: *incoming | 00:34 |
|---|
| scguy318 | whileimhere: you probably need to add a forward entry for that port if you haven't already | 00:34 |
|---|
| Slart | ping: you can change this in the compiz settings thingy.. System, preferences, appearance or Advanced Desktop Effects settings | 00:34 |

| ikonia | ubun00b: nope its gone unless it's in your trash bin | 00:35 |

| Slart | tupson: great.. you're welcome.. now stay around and tell the same thing to the next person that asks that question ;) | 00:36 |
|---|
| Pelo | ubun00b, is itstill in the trash can ? | 00:36 |
|---|
| tupson | hehe, i am documenting it now :) | 00:36 |

| heartsblood | Does anybody know if Gutsy can be loaded on the Asus EEE yet? There were problems with the acpi drivers not being GNU compliant and warrenty problems about removing the version of 'Asus linux'. | 00:36 |
|---|
| Pelo | ubun00b, I wasn't aware that the trash in linux had a size limit, it's not lke the recycling bin in windows , | 00:36 |
|---|
| heartsblood | when it was first released anyway | 00:37 |
|---|
| J-_ | how do I theme synaptic? | 00:37 |
|---|
| ikonia | Pelo: 3.$something gig | 00:37 |
|---|
| soundray_ | heartsblood: there is a UK company that sells it with Gutsy preinstalled | 00:37 |
|---|
| Pelo | heartsblood, there was an article about it on diggs a few days ago , I think they did it | 00:37 |
|---|
| ikonia | J-_: its gtk themes | 00:37 |
|---|
| Pelo | ikonia, that sucks | 00:37 |
|---|
| Dr_willis | J-_, its ran as root, so you need to run the theme tools as root... that will set the theme for synatpic | 00:37 |
|---|
| ubun00b | ikonia: i tried to delete the rar files with the command 'rm *.r**' | 00:37 |
|---|
| heartsblood | soundray_, you wouldn't happen to know the name of the company do you? | 00:37 |
|---|
| ikonia | ubun00b: you told me it was an image, not a rar file | 00:37 |
|---|
| ubun00b | ikonia: somehow the image file was deleted in the process | 00:37 |
|---|
| J-_ | ikonia: I have a murrine theme, installed it. I'm using it currently, but synaptic isn't themed proper. | 00:37 |
|---|
| soundray_ | heartsblood: I can look it up | 00:38 |
|---|
| Dr_willis | ubun00b, thats a lot of *'s :) | 00:38 |
|---|
| ikonia | ubun00b: its gone now | 00:38 |
|---|
| ubun00b | ikonia: well, i had extracted the iso file from the multiple rar files | 00:38 |
|---|
| ikonia | J-_: it runs of the same gtk engine as gnome | 00:38 |
|---|
| Pelo | ubun00b, cd to ~/.Trash , see if it is in there , the command is ls | 00:38 |
|---|
| Odd-rationale | I just installed alltray. But i can't figure out how to make it work. | 00:38 |
|---|
| * Dr_willis wonders if ** is different from * in a filetype glob. | 00:38 |
| ikonia | ubun00b: it's gone if its not in the bin | 00:38 |
|---|
| heatmzzr | what are the better distros, other than ubuntu? | 00:38 |
|---|
| soundray_ | heartsblood: http://efficientpc.co.uk/laptops/ | 00:38 |
|---|
| ikonia | heatmzzr: thats personal opinion, and quite argumentative to ask in #ubuntu | 00:38 |
|---|
| Dr_willis | heatmzzr, it depends on your needs. Ive seen very few that are better. | 00:38 |
|---|
| ubun00b | Pelo: i have, it seems it's gone... arg | 00:38 |
|---|
| jrib | Dr_willis: in zsh, **/ will be recursive | 00:39 |
|---|
| Odd-rationale | heatmzzr: I like Puppy Linux | 00:39 |
|---|
| Pelo | heatmzzr, gentoo seems popular, opensuse is also well liked, and there is always debian | 00:39 |
|---|
| BSG75 | how do I turn on highspeed usb for usb2.0 pls?? I am getting about 10MB/sec transfer with my usb hard drive | 00:39 |
|---|
| Dr_willis | PuppyLinux is darn handy. | 00:39 |
|---|
| coccoon55 | anyone especially bored and know their way around usb wireless connecitons? | 00:39 |
|---|
| heartsblood | Pelo: found the article you were talking about, ty. | 00:39 |
|---|
| Pelo | ubun00b, you've been in denail, no you are ready for anger | 00:39 |
|---|
| heartsblood | soundray_, looking at it now | 00:39 |
|---|
| Dr_willis | Pelo, that would of been funnier with out the typos. :) | 00:39 |
|---|
| Pelo | BSG75, it should be turned on by default | 00:40 |
|---|
| whileimhere | Hmm I have port 5000 forwarded on TCP and UDP | 00:40 |
|---|
| Extravert | how do I check whats using my sound card? | 00:40 |
|---|
| Pelo | Dr_willis, most of what I write would be better without typos ;( | 00:40 |
|---|
| Slart | BSG75: that isn't enough? sounds reasonable for a hard drive or something | 00:40 |
|---|
| soundray_ | BSG75: USB HD transfer rates are limited to 30MB/sec, so you're not that far from the optimum | 00:40 |
|---|
| ubun00b | Pelo: denial you mean? i sure am kind of pissed now, yes :-) | 00:40 |
|---|
| ikonia | ubun00b: please watch your language | 00:40 |
|---|
| BSG75 | Pelo: it is doing a real poor job .. hdparm -t -T shows 28MB/sec .. however it is nowhere close to that in RL copy/paste | 00:40 |
|---|
| soundray_ | BSG75: it's a hardware limitation | 00:41 |
|---|
| Pelo | ubun00b, give it a few minutes and you'll be ready for acceptance | 00:41 |
|---|
| thyrax | any site with screenshots of ubuntu running compiz? | 00:41 |
|---|
| ubun00b | ikonia: it was said with a smile... | 00:41 |
|---|
| ikonia | ubun00b: so ? that doesn't make it any less offensive language | 00:41 |
|---|
| Slart | Extravert: I'm not sure about this.. but perhaps lsof will show you something.. don't know if soundcards are files in linux..but perhaps | 00:41 |
|---|
| Extravert | Slart: thanks | 00:41 |
|---|
| Pelo | BSG75, I can't help you get any better, my own usb stuff seems a bit slow on copying to, copying from usb is much quicker | 00:41 |
|---|
| ubun00b | ikonia: well, everything should be viewed in it's context | 00:42 |
|---|
| Pelo | ikonia, give the kid a break, he just lost 4 gig of data | 00:42 |
|---|
| ubun00b | i think anyway | 00:42 |
|---|
| BSG75 | how can it be hardware limit when the same drive on the same machine on winXP gets 27MB/sec?? :( | 00:42 |
|---|
| BSG75 | Pelo: I will try an discrete usb card .. turn off usb onboard | 00:42 |
|---|
| ikonia | ubun00b: I'm not aruging, please just watch your language | 00:42 |
|---|
| BSG75 | X fingers and pray | 00:42 |
|---|
| ubun00b | ikonia: oki | 00:42 |
|---|
| J-_ | what's the program called that themes gtk? I want to gksu the command so th window pops up as root and theme everything, see if that helps. | 00:42 |
|---|
| BSG75 | thanks guys | 00:42 |
|---|
| ikonia | J-_: that won't help. | 00:42 |
|---|
| ikonia | J-_: gnome as a desktop applies the theme | 00:43 |
|---|
| soundray_ | BSG75: 30MB is a hardware limit | 00:43 |
|---|
| kappakappuccino | o/ | 00:43 |
|---|
| Pelo | BSG75, best of luck let me know if you figure things out, also check in the forum for other stuff ppl have treid, www.ubuntuforums.lorg | 00:43 |
|---|
| BSG75 | thanks Pelo.. thanks Soundray | 00:43 |
|---|
| J-_ | ikonia: then how can I make synaptic and other root windows use a theme? | 00:43 |
|---|
| kappakappuccino | .lorg | 00:43 |
|---|
| kappakappuccino | is that new? | 00:43 |
|---|
| ikonia | J-_: I'm surprised they are not | 00:43 |
|---|
| Slart | kappakappuccino: probably just a typo.. .org | 00:44 |
|---|
| kappakappuccino | yeah ;[ | 00:44 |

| J-_ | ikonia: it's happened before, I forget what I did to get them themed. | 00:44 |

|---|
| ikonia | J-_: well done | 00:46 |
|---|
| Slart | Extravert: lsof worked? | 00:46 |
|---|
| soundray_ | Pelo (ikonia): 30 megabytes per second is what I meant. Your arithmetic isn't quite right. | 00:46 |
|---|
| Extravert | Slart: well lsof | grep "alsa" | 00:46 |
|---|
| Extravert | Slart: but my sound is still broken =( | 00:47 |
|---|
| Slart | Extravert: sweeet.. I'll remember that for later... so firefox eats your sound.. flash? | 00:47 |
|---|
| Extravert | Slart: probably | 00:47 |
|---|
| Pelo | soundray_, 30 mB ? ok my arithmetic is 2 gig x 1024 meg / 30 meg/s = 68 sec | 00:47 |
|---|
| Slart | Extravert: any special site? url? | 00:48 |
|---|
| * Pelo is gonna start a flame war with soundray_ over this, I hope he is ready | 00:48 |

| lulu | I just installed ubuntu gutsy but X failed to start with an ATI Radeon X700, I just solved the problem and it is not well documented. who should I report the bug to? | 00:52 |
|---|
| Pelo | rmaj, we are all on the internet here ans we tend to disagre | 00:52 |
|---|
| harking_ | i thought the patch for update-manager was just to allow the removal of evms cleanly | 00:53 |
|---|
| Extravert | Slart: wine takes over the sound | 00:53 |
|---|
| ikonia | harking_: yes, it will as the volume manager controlls the raid gorup | 00:53 |

| Pelo | rmaj, what kind of connection ? | 00:53 |
|---|
| evo7 | Pelo, it is better to teach me how to compile the tar.gz file. | 00:53 |
|---|
| rmaj | my network doest work (routing table is always empty, even after route add default dev eth0) ... simple DHCP network, worked always... anybody can help? | 00:53 |
|---|
| ikonia | evo7: no it's not | 00:53 |
|---|
| junkeR | well the top one is flash but the bottom one is javascript. The javascript performs poorly on my PC | 00:53 |
|---|
| rmaj | ikonia: asking for solution didn't lead to any solution as well so far | 00:53 |
|---|
| IndyGunFreak | evo7: not really... its best to stick w/ whats in the repos, only compile if absolutely necessary, | 00:53 |
|---|

| kappakappuccino | you started it | 00:59 |
|---|
| slimjimflim | rmaj, you should have made a backup | 01:00 |
|---|
| ikonia | harking_: yes, I understand that, there is an issue as you rightly pointed out between evms and udev controlling device nodes, there has been a fix pulled from opensuse from what I've read but that looks like it's been in testing | 01:00 |
|---|
| ikonia | slimjimflim: a backup of what ? | 01:00 |
|---|
| slimjimflim | the hard drive | 01:00 |
|---|
| super-6-1_desk | hello does anyone know why i cant install anything with 7.10 installed? | 01:00 |
|---|
| ikonia | slimjimflim: why ? | 01:00 |
|---|
| ikonia | slimjimflim: what would that do ? | 01:00 |
|---|
| rmaj | slimjimflim: what? | 01:00 |
|---|
| ikonia | super-6-1_desk: can you explain the problem | 01:00 |
|---|
| slimjimflim | it'd undo whatever he just did | 01:00 |
|---|
| ikonia | rmaj: I'll be with you in a minute | 01:01 |
|---|
| ikonia | slimjimflim: how do you know he did anything, dhcp could have died a tthe server ? | 01:01 |
|---|
| rmaj | DHCP server is on router of course, and I did nothing to this box | 01:01 |
|---|
| harking_ | ikonia: thanks for the info, i'll subscribe to the bug. | 01:01 |
|---|
| ikonia | harking_: understood | 01:01 |
|---|
| myusrnm | how do i check mount points? | 01:01 |
|---|
| super-6-1_desk | ikonia: when ever i go to add/remove it always asks to reload and it never stops asking | 01:01 |
|---|
| slimjimflim | rmaj, how are you connected it dhcp is down | 01:01 |
|---|
| ikonia | myusrnm: mount | 01:01 |
|---|
| ikonia | slimjimflim: he's not, thats the problem | 01:02 |
|---|
| MasterShrek | super-6-1_desk, do: sudo apt-get update in a terminal and pastebin the output | 01:02 |
|---|
| ikonia | super-6-1_desk: it keeps asking you to reload ? | 01:02 |
|---|
| rainmakers999 | does anyone know howto access windows shares that were created using the gnome desktop | 01:02 |
|---|
| super-6-1_desk | ikonia: yes | 01:02 |
|---|
| rmaj | slimjimflim: dhcp works fine. ubuntu box even gets the IP from DHCP, but it doesnt set up default route | 01:02 |
|---|
| slimjimflim | rmaj, does the router have a public ip? | 01:02 |
|---|
| super-6-1_desk | lkonia: i think this the bug | 01:02 |
|---|
| ikonia | super-6-1_desk: follow MasterShreks's advice | 01:02 |
|---|
| tomboy64 | hi guys | 01:02 |
|---|
| super-6-1_desk | ikonia: ok | 01:02 |
|---|
| ikonia | rmaj: so dhcp doesn't appear to be offering a default route ? | 01:03 |
|---|
| tomboy64 | what's the standard-package-manager for ubuntu? | 01:03 |
|---|
| MasterShrek | apt | 01:03 |
|---|
| slimjimflim | how do you find out when a package was first installed? | 01:03 |
|---|
| ikonia | tomboy64: dpkg with apt / synaptic front ends | 01:03 |
|---|
| tomboy64 | MasterShrek: is that gui? | 01:03 |
|---|
| rmaj | ikonia: and DHCP works as Im getting IP address, only my ubuntu box doesnt have any routing set up for itself (route command) therefore it is probably softeware problem in ubuntu box | 01:03 |
|---|
| tomboy64 | ahhh, synaptic! | 01:03 |
|---|
| MasterShrek | synaptic is gui tomboy64 | 01:03 |
|---|
| ikonia | rmaj: no, your route should be offered via the dhcp server | 01:03 |
|---|
| MasterShrek | adept for kde | 01:03 |
|---|
| rmaj | ikonia: it is offering, other boxes are using it | 01:03 |
|---|
| tomboy64 | great, thx :-D | 01:03 |

|---|

|---|
| rmaj | yes I do | 01:04 |

| ikonia | rmaj: what ?? don't make random guesses | 01:04 |

| jamey-uk | I am trying to get the Live CD of 7.10 working on my Mac Mini. It's plugged into a 17" TFT TV but it's a bit funny with the resolution detection.

| Tuche_ | noob question, i am downloading torrents, but i would like at the same time be on a low power comsumption profile, if i hibernate my ubuntu, will my torrents continue seeding ? | 01:04 |
|---|

|---|
| Tuche_ | hum | 01:05 |
|---|
| Odd-rationale | How would I add an aptoncd cd to the sources lists from a CLI? Do I need aptoncd installed in order to do this? | 01:05 |
|---|
| Dr_willis | Tuche_, i very much doubt that. | 01:05 |
|---|
| rmaj | ikonia: yes, after "dhclient", the /etc/resolv.conf if (re)generated and contains correct IPs of DNS servers | 01:05 |

| JarG0n | Can anyone help with a DVD burning problem? nautilus-cd-burner gets stuck in a 'calculating' state after dropping some folders for burning. The process status is 'sleeping'. Any idea why this is happening? | 01:05 |

|---|
| Tuche_ | what would then be the best option ? | 01:05 |
|---|
| ikonia | rmaj: excellent, what ip address do you get ? | 01:05 |
|---|
| Tuche_ | shut down monitor only ? | 01:05 |
|---|
| ikonia | rmaj: for your machien, I should say | 01:05 |
|---|
| rmaj | JarG0n: random guess: I would try to use k3b | 01:05 |
|---|
| Pelo | JarG0n, try gnomebaker instead | 01:05 |
|---|
| ikonia | Tuche_: press the power button the on the monitor | 01:05 |
|---|
| Dr_willis | Tuche_, there really is no option.. seeding is accessing the hard drive and so forth.. | 01:05 |
|---|
| rmaj | ikonia: correct IP address, 192.168.44.x where x is fro example 132 the same way it works for other boxes | 01:06 |
|---|
| Tuche_ | Thanks Mates. | 01:06 |
|---|

| ikonia | rmaj: ok, so what is your router address | 01:06 |
|---|
| slimjimflim | Tuche_ all network connections are off when you hibernate | 01:06 |
|---|
| super-6-1_desk | MasterShrek: its ok i got 2 hours any ways | 01:06 |
|---|
| rmaj | JarG0n: I dont think so, but if it doesnt work then perhaps k3b will work for burning | 01:06 |
|---|
| super-6-1_desk | MasterShrek: plus i got m laptop =P | 01:06 |
|---|
| Tuche_ | understood :( | 01:06 |
|---|
| rmaj | ikonia: router is 192.168.44.1 | 01:06 |
|---|
| Pelo | JarG0n, not bad but I never managed it , I found gnomebaker much easier | 01:06 |
|---|
| askand | What is the command used for songswitching in the keyshortcuts settings? | 01:06 |

|---|
| super-6-1_desk | MasterShrek: lol ok | 01:08 |
|---|
| ikonia | rmaj: first things first 1.) assign a static ip address on the network and try to ping the router, lets make sure it can actually get there 2.) plug/unplug the cable with 15 second intervals and see if the syslog reports link/negotiation established | 01:08 |
|---|
| rmaj | Odd-rationale: edit the /etc/apt/sources.list perhaps | 01:08 |
|---|
| no0tic | Odd-rationale, apt-add cdrom | 01:08 |
|---|
| MasterShrek | thanks bulmer | 01:08 |
|---|
| ikonia | rmaj: it is possible your cable is dead and your using cached settings | 01:08 |
|---|
| super-6-1_desk | MasterShrek: you may now who i am im Dark_alex | 01:08 |
|---|
| ikonia | rmaj: or something along those lines | 01:08 |

|---|
| rmaj | ikonia: yes, it is not a hardware problem 100% | 01:09 |
|---|
| super-6-1_desk | MasterShrek: what CFW you have? | 01:09 |
|---|
| ikonia | rmaj: ok, so assign a static address/route and lets see if you can ping it | 01:09 |
|---|
| Odd-rationale | no0tic: Do I type that exactly? | 01:09 |
|---|
| ikonia | rmaj: (I assume icmp is enabled on the rotuer) | 01:09 |

| super-6-1_desk | MasterShrek: i really dont care of you beleave i am but hay im stil working on PSPLinux and it wont be out for a bit pubicly | 01:15 |
|---|
| rmaj | ikonia: people should, yes, but they dont | 01:15 |
|---|
| Wifi-Phreak | I want the disc to play in an in car cd player | 01:15 |
|---|
| MasterShrek | super-6-1_desk, and you are basing it off ubuntu? | 01:16 |
|---|
| rmaj | ikonia: I thought ubuntu aims to stop with the GNU/Nerdy approach "I spend 24/24 with my computer, so you should too - reading manuals" | 01:16 |
|---|
| ikonia | rmaj: it does | 01:16 |
|---|
| Pelo | Wifi-Phreak, ok first you will need to install mp3 support, if it isnt, done already and then you will use Serpentine from the sound/image menu in applications | 01:16 |
|---|
| reaxion | I wonder if anyone can help? My Ubuntu Server has a process running every 20 minutes which places the text "-- MARK --" in my /var/log/messages | 01:16 |
|---|
| super-6-1_desk | MasterShrek: well one version is and one is on YDL | 01:16 |
|---|
| ikonia | reaxion: that is a log check | 01:17 |
|---|
| rmaj | ikonia: in my case, a hint from "route" or "dhclient" that it can not assign route because device is not present, would be very helpfull | 01:17 |
|---|
| reaxion | ikonia, what process might be checking? | 01:17 |
|---|
| rmaj | reaxion: it's normal | 01:17 |
|---|
| Pelo | reaxion, check in crontab | 01:17 |
|---|
| reaxion | I did | 01:17 |
|---|
| ikonia | rml__: you can't account for every possible senario | 01:17 |
|---|
| reaxion | nothing every 20 mins | 01:17 |
|---|
| ikonia | reaxion: log watch I think | 01:17 |
|---|
| reaxion | could it be log rotator? | 01:17 |
|---|
| * rmaj slaps self for not finding this obvious sollution before | 01:17 |
| super-6-1_desk | MasterShrek: fyi dont go down to any other fw if so you well see un normal utilitys on your psp | 01:18 |
|---|
| reaxion | Just filling my log up with the MARK text | 01:18 |
|---|
| wers | is there any multisync user here? may you post a copy of your .multisync/1/localsettings file? :) | 01:18 |
|---|
| * Pelo slaps rmaj just for the hell of it | 01:18 |
| rmaj | reaxion: I thoink its normal.. why not? | 01:18 |
|---|
| MasterShrek | super-6-1_desk, what do you mean? | 01:18 |
|---|
| * rmaj slaps Pelo with vista cd | 01:18 |
| reaxion | I'd just prefer my log had meaningful messages, rather than that every 20 mins | 01:18 |
|---|
| ikonia | reaxion: then do something to generate traffic | 01:19 |
|---|
| * Pelo shows rmaj his @ and tells him not to annoy him any further, he was told earlier to review all the basic stuff | 01:19 |
| rmaj | reaxion: if computer dies, you know it was alive at this time; also it compreses to nothing basicly by logrotate | 01:19 |
|---|
| Wifi-Phreak | Pelo: How d I install mp3 support? | 01:19 |

| super-6-1_desk | MasterShrek: well as i make new CFW i see that the newer updates hold new flashes. and the downgraders dont target these and dont see them so when you do go to a new CFW be sure you upgrade | 01:19 |
|---|
| rmaj | Pelo: I seen this lack of eth0 before, but I thought interfaces entry was needed only for automatic configuration | 01:19 |
|---|
| reaxion | rmaj: I understand it would, just find it a bit annoying. | 01:19 |
|---|
| ikonia | super-6-1_desk: can you take the psp discussion to #ubuntu-offtopic please. | 01:20 |
|---|
| rmaj | ikonia: thanks | 01:20 |
|---|
| ikonia | rmaj: welcome, next time, try a smidgen more manners a tad less critical and we'll get there faster, I promise | 01:20 |
|---|
| super-6-1_desk | ikonia: sorry my bad i didnt mean to get off-topic | 01:20 |
|---|
| ikonia | super-6-1_desk: no biggy | 01:20 |
|---|
| reaxion | Okay folks. Thanks. | 01:20 |
|---|
| wers | yooohooooo... any multisync user out here? :) | 01:20 |

|---|
| ikonia | rmaj: that would mean patching every gnu util for every possible error | 01:21 |
|---|
| ikonia | rmaj: better if you just understand the processes more | 01:21 |
|---|
| ice9_ | original burner ? whats that I use k3b | 01:21 |
|---|
| rmaj | ikonia: sounds like fun; and tech message simply makes learning easier | 01:21 |
|---|
| super-6-1_desk | MasterShrek: im still getting the refreash thing again | 01:21 |
|---|
| ikonia | rmaj: too much effort to do and maintin | 01:21 |
|---|
| ikonia | maintain | 01:22 |
|---|
| rmaj | ikonia: what if I would | 01:22 |
|---|
| lego | any one know if it is possible to remove all panels in gnome ? | 01:22 |
|---|
| MasterShrek | hmm, getting any errors when you do: sudo apt-get update ? | 01:22 |
|---|
| rmaj | then upstream could adapt this even | 01:22 |
|---|
| super-6-1_desk | MasterShrek: ill look | 01:22 |
|---|
| ikonia | rmaj: you're going to maintain every gnu package with hints for every possible error | 01:22 |
|---|
| super-6-1_desk | MasterShrek: the same things | 01:22 |
|---|
| rmaj | not every, but some to start with... and basic tools are rarerlly changed I guess | 01:22 |
|---|
| ikonia | rmaj: its not worth the effort, people who want to tinker, should know, others should use the tools (like network manager) provided by ubuntu | 01:23 |
|---|
| Zionad_ | lego: Yes just right click on them, and remove them! | 01:23 |
|---|
| MasterShrek | super-6-1_desk, and you saved that file with the cdrom line commented out? | 01:23 |
|---|
| timothywcrane__ | any good autoresponders that handle IMAP and follow ups for Ubuntu? | 01:23 |
|---|
| rmaj | ikonia: I even straced route to see if it is accessing any config file (it didn't)... | 01:23 |
|---|
| super-6-1_desk | MasterShrek: there was nothing in there and i put the reps the auto reps gave me | 01:24 |
|---|
| ikonia | rmaj: over kill | 01:24 |
|---|
| lego | Zionad_: but the last one has the "delete this panel" label greyed out | 01:24 |
|---|
| MasterShrek | super-6-1_desk, they didnt give you a cdrom repo did it? | 01:24 |
|---|
| super-6-1_desk | MasterShrek: no | 01:24 |
|---|
| super-6-1_desk | MasterShrek: it was like it was a new file | 01:24 |
|---|
| MasterShrek | but sudo apt-get update is still giving you cdrom errors? | 01:25 |
|---|
| wers | is there any multisync user here? I need to see a /home/user/.multisync/1/localsettings file | 01:25 |
|---|
| Zionad_ | lego: you can always run, killall gnome-panel | 01:25 |
|---|
| Pelo | timothywcrane__, did hyou check in synaptic ? do a search for imap or autoresponder or other related keywords | 01:25 |
|---|
| jv_ | nvidia fx 5500 does not giving me effects? | 01:25 |
|---|
| jv_ | 256mb | 01:25 |
|---|
| super-6-1_desk | MasterShrek: yes | 01:25 |
|---|
| Synx_hm | Trying to install ubuntu for the first time, i set it up on a software raid and had a seperate /boot swap etc... upon first reboot i get grub error 21 | 01:25 |
|---|
| ikonia | jv_: have you enabled desktop effects ? | 01:25 |
|---|
| lego | Zionad_: true.. should have been able to come up with that myself :) | 01:25 |
|---|
| ikonia | Synx_hm: what type of software raid ? | 01:25 |
|---|
| Zionad_ | lego: its ok, we are always here for help! | 01:25 |
|---|
| MasterShrek | that doesnt make any sense super-6-1_desk, pastebin your /etc/apt/sources.list | 01:25 |
|---|
| super-6-1_desk | MasterShrek: ok | 01:25 |
|---|
| telexicon | How come the scripts in if-pre-up.d aren't executed when network interfaces are brought up? | 01:25 |
|---|
| super-6-1_desk | !paste | 01:26 |
|---|
| 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 (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic) | 01:26 |
|---|
| ikonia | telexicon: "pre-up" | 01:26 |
|---|
| Flannel | Synx_hm: You may need to put boot off the RAID. Although I dont know for sure. I know /boot can't be on LVM | 01:26 |
|---|
| Synx_hm | ikonia, i think kernal, i use the text installer to select the physical drive raid then configured software raid | 01:26 |
|---|
| jv_ | using think so..using experimental geubuntu..after rebooting gives error..how in the comand line can I verify if beryl is enabled? | 01:26 |
|---|
| timothywcrane__ | yes, but there is nothing in te repository. Prob have to go 3rd party. Autorespond is really limited and the others avail are simple vacation responders | 01:26 |
|---|
| lego | hmm.. the gnome-panel thingie restarts when killed... damn it is a sticky thing | 01:26 |
|---|
| Synx_hm | Flannel, i configured one drive so that it had 3 partitions one /boot one swap and one for the softraid, so the raid while technically is on both drives, its only on two partitions | 01:26 |
|---|
| telexicon | ikonia, ? | 01:26 |
|---|
| ikonia | Synx_hm: ok, thats a good start, Synx_hm it looks like grub has not installed to the correct disks. Try manually installing grub to your boot sectors of your primary drives | 01:26 |
|---|
| Zionad_ | lego: one sec, i can fix that | 01:26 |
|---|
| ikonia | telexicon: they are executed before the interface is brought up | 01:26 |
|---|
| eyemean | hello, is xgl meant to use so much processing power? | 01:27 |
|---|
| Pelo | timothywcrane__, you can try an look here www.getdeb.net , no garranties , otherwise it's google | 01:27 |
|---|
| ikonia | eyemean: depends on your card/cpu | 01:27 |
|---|
| telexicon | ikonia, right | 01:27 |
|---|
| Synx_hm | ikonia, im back in the text install cd and it wont let me... mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/boot | 01:27 |
|---|
| telexicon | ikonia, thats fine.. thats what i meant | 01:27 |
|---|
| telexicon | ikonia, they arent executed at all | 01:27 |
|---|
| telexicon | ikonia, thats the problem | 01:27 |
|---|
| timothywcrane__ | thanks, been googling all day | 01:27 |
|---|
| ikonia | telexicon: really ? | 01:27 |
|---|
| ikonia | telexicon: what type of card | 01:27 |
|---|
| ikonia | Synx_hm: what does it say | 01:27 |
|---|
| eyemean | ikonia, i got radeon 9550, 1.7 GHz cpu and 1Gig ram | 01:27 |
|---|
| super-6-1_desk | http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/47643/ here MasterShrek | 01:27 |
|---|
| IndyGunFreak | ikonia: lmao... i just want you to know i caught that. | 01:27 |
|---|
| ikonia | eyemean: ahhh ati, I've no idea | 01:27 |
|---|
| telexicon | ikonia, my network works.. its just I made an iptables-restore script.. but it doesnt restore | 01:27 |
|---|
| Pelo | timothywcrane__, doing a search in the forum might also yeild some results, www.ubuntuforums.org | 01:27 |
|---|
| jv_ | ok, compiz is installed... | 01:28 |
|---|
| BSG75 | I got to run at 9MB/s transfer almost on avg | 01:28 |
|---|
| ikonia | IndyGunFreak: caught what ;) | 01:28 |
|---|
| Synx_hm | ikonia, invalid argument, is there a full shell under the install cd? | 01:28 |
|---|
| IndyGunFreak | lol | 01:28 |
|---|
| Pelo | BSG75, waht did you do ? | 01:28 |
|---|
| IndyGunFreak | ikonia: that was pretty subtle though..... but i doubt he got it. | 01:28 |
|---|
| ikonia | telexicon: thats not done in the pre-up scripts | 01:28 |
|---|
| jv_ | do we have a compiz manager like in beryl? | 01:28 |
|---|
| BSG75 | Pelo: I had a setting in my BIOS that said .. disable PCI 2.1 latency compliant | 01:28 |
|---|
| telexicon | ikonia, where is it done? | 01:28 |
|---|
| eyemean | ikonia, yeah tell me about if i knew ati would of been such a problem i would of got Nvidea, hahah | 01:28 |
|---|
| lego | Zionad_: i solved it, thank you.. (this was the needed command 'gnome-session-remove gnome-panel') | 01:28 |
|---|
| smultron | what does it mean when a monitor is "vista compatible"? i thought monitors were operating system independent like hard drives? | 01:28 |
|---|
| ikonia | telexicon: that should be done in an init script | 01:28 |
|---|
| MasterShrek | super-6-1_desk, that first line is supposed to be commented right? also you may have to pastebin the output from sudo apt-get update, this is really puzzling me | 01:29 |
|---|
| ikonia | eyemean: there are a few guys in here that know ati well | 01:29 |
|---|
| Zionad_ | lego: Go to Prefrences -> Sessions then click on current session and remove gnome panel, then go to session options and click remeber currently running applications | 01:29 |
|---|
| ikonia | I'm not one | 01:29 |
|---|
| BSG75 | and I moved to slot 3 pci on my motherboard | 01:29 |
|---|
| Zionad_ | lego:" that will save it everytime | 01:29 |
|---|
| BSG75 | I am not sure which one did it .. but I am not touching it .. just incase :) | 01:29 |
|---|
| lego | thank you very much | 01:29 |
|---|
| Pelo | BSG75, I donT, think I have that one, but I'll check it out later , I think I have full speed and hi speed, kind of ambiguous | 01:29 |
|---|
| super-6-1_desk | MasterShrek: its the same as the last | 01:29 |
|---|
| telexicon | ikonia, how come ubuntu/debian doesnt come with an iptables script by default? It seems like a common thing to have | 01:29 |
|---|
| eyemean | calling all ati user knowledge buffs, hahaha | 01:29 |
|---|
| timothywcrane__ | nothing on get deb or forums, but thank you | 01:29 |
|---|
| lbakalinsky | If I were to get an Emerex PC, could i buy a Nvida graphics to run compiz and emerald running. I really want to get my brother a computer | 01:29 |
|---|
| * IndyGunFreak fixed his ATI card by removing and buying an Nvidia card | 01:29 |
| ikonia | telexicon: its a custom thing to have, there is an init template you can hack to use your own | 01:29 |
|---|
| * nickrud thinks IndyGunFreak is a cheat | 01:29 |
| BSG75 | LOL full speed and high speed .. I like those choices :) | 01:29 |
|---|
| Pelo | BSG75, no pci slots for me , they are onboard | 01:29 |
|---|
| IndyGunFreak | :) | 01:30 |
|---|
| MasterShrek | super-6-1_desk, it cant be, theres no reference to your cdrom in that file, theres no reason it shold be erroring on it | 01:30 |
|---|
| BSG75 | I hope one of those options in the bios will do it for u | 01:30 |
|---|
| super-6-1_desk | MasterShrek: i think its a bug | 01:30 |
|---|

|---|
| lbakalinsky | anyone? | 01:31 |
|---|
| Pelo | BSG75, I'll hav eto look a bit more into it , I think I tried to change it while back and it didn't do much difference so I put it back the way it was, don'T remember what it is at now | 01:31 |
|---|
| Qjimbo | Zionad_: I'm struggling as it is with this VIA onboard stuff | 01:31 |

| jv_ | compiz | 01:33 |
|---|
| jv_ | Xgl not present | 01:33 |

| ubotu | Sorry, I don't know anything about maxima - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi | 01:35 |

| IanLiu | !emacs | 01:35 |

| ikonia | jv_: are you using the nvidia driver (restricted driver manager) | 01:35 |

| ubotu | Text Editors: gedit (GNOME), Kate (KDE), mousepad (Xfce4) | Terminal-based editors: vi/vim, emacs, and nano (user-friendly). | HTML/CSS editors: !html | Programming: !code | 01:35 |
|---|
| Synx_hm | ikonia, thanks ill give that a try | 01:35 |
|---|
| nickrud | jv_, that's a generic response to not having nvidia or another driver that has aiglx in it | 01:35 |
|---|
| Junkie` | Is there a special channel for intel mac support? | 01:35 |
|---|
| ikonia | Junkie`: no | 01:35 |
|---|
| MasterShrek | super-6-1_desk, try going to system > admin > software sources | 01:35 |

| ]RandoM[ | ikonia: ok thank | 01:36 |
|---|
| Junkie` | Okay | 01:36 |
|---|
| IndyGunFreak | Junkie`: intel mac?.. maybe #mac i don't know | 01:36 |
|---|
| Junkie` | Well, it's support with an intel mac with ubuntu | 01:36 |
|---|
| IndyGunFreak | Junkie`: oh, you need help w/ Ubuntu, on an intel mac. | 01:36 |
|---|
| IndyGunFreak | nevermind... i was confused... | 01:36 |
|---|
| Junkie` | Ya :P | 01:36 |
|---|
| ikonia | Junkie`: ask your question | 01:36 |
|---|
| super-6-1_desk | MasterShrek: thats the problem i think i can fix it from here | 01:36 |
|---|
| IndyGunFreak | whats the problem? | 01:36 |
|---|
| MasterShrek | good luck super-6-1_desk | 01:37 |
|---|
| Junkie` | Retardedly, I completely took mac os x off of my macbook and installed ubuntu | 01:37 |
|---|
| Junkie` | which worked fine | 01:37 |
|---|
| IndyGunFreak | Junkie`: lol | 01:37 |
|---|
| ikonia | Junkie`: nothing wrong with that | 01:37 |
|---|
| IndyGunFreak | i bet | 01:37 |
|---|
| super-6-1_desk | MasterShrek: Im not leaveing just yet im chacking it before i go | 01:37 |
|---|
| Junkie` | until i need windows and installed it on a 25 gig partition | 01:37 |
|---|
| Junkie` | now i can't get into a livecd, or into linux | 01:37 |
|---|
| IndyGunFreak | and now grub is hosed. | 01:37 |
|---|
| Junkie` | which i need to do | 01:37 |
|---|
| Junkie` | exactly. | 01:37 |
|---|
| ikonia | Junkie`: there is a keypress to boot from cd | 01:37 |
|---|
| IndyGunFreak | why can't you get into a live CD? | 01:37 |
|---|
| ikonia | Junkie`: it's apple + b or something like that | 01:37 |
|---|
| Junkie` | because the macbook bios settings aren't configurable | 01:38 |
|---|
| IndyGunFreak | oh ok.... | 01:38 |
|---|
| Junkie` | so when i go to press c nothing happends | 01:38 |
|---|
| ikonia | Junkie`: you need a key sequence to force cd boot | 01:38 |
|---|
| superpie | who are all these punks? o.0 | 01:38 |
|---|
| Zionad_ | Junkie: the key press is JUST the letter C | 01:38 |
|---|
| Junkie` | It was 'c' in mac os x to boot from teh cd | 01:38 |
|---|
| jv_ | http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/47646/plain/ | 01:38 |
|---|
| nyce_ | hello | 01:38 |
|---|
| jv_ | this was the compiz command output | 01:38 |
|---|
| ikonia | jv_: why are you showing us that, | 01:39 |
|---|
| Junkie` | Zionad_: I know, but that doesn't do anything | 01:39 |
|---|
| ikonia | jv_: I've told you not to use the compiz command | 01:39 |
|---|
| ikonia | jv_: I've told you what you need to do | 01:39 |
|---|
| Junkie` | It just goes to the windows bootloader | 01:39 |
|---|
| Pelo | g'night folks | 01:39 |
|---|
| jv_ | ah..sorry, didn't saw that | 01:39 |
|---|

| nyce_ | first problem i have is getting wine working | 01:40 |
|---|
| IndyGunFreak | Junkie`: no way to get into the bios? | 01:40 |
|---|
| nyce_ | i dont understand what they want me to do | 01:40 |
|---|
| jv_ | I have the restrcitive driver enabled | 01:40 |
|---|
| Junkie` | So, the first thought I had was to use vmware player to get into a live cd, dump the boot partition thing, using dd, then adding that line to teh boot.ini in windows, but that didn't work. | 01:40 |
|---|
| * nickrud shuts up, he came in late (again) | 01:40 |
| Junkie` | IndyGunFreak: nope | 01:40 |
|---|
| ikonia | nyce_: wine support in in #winehq | 01:40 |
|---|
| super-6-1_desk | nyce_: whats it asking? | 01:40 |
|---|
| super-6-1_desk | nvm | 01:40 |
|---|
| Zionad_ | Ok, You have selected wine in the add remove?, and whats the problem? | 01:40 |
|---|
| IndyGunFreak | hmm | 01:40 |
|---|
| IndyGunFreak | Junkie`: there has to be online instructions to boot a intel mac from CD drivee | 01:41 |
|---|
| nyce_ | i had it installed at first but i couldnt get a program to work so i removed it and tried to install it again but its not working like before | 01:41 |
|---|
| hudyx | if I am dual-booting vista/Ubuntu, is there any way I can save my desktops' states in Ubuntu 7.10 when I shut down and go into Vista? | 01:41 |
|---|
| nyce_ | i dont remember what i did | 01:41 |
|---|
| jv_ | lsmod shows nvidia loaded | 01:41 |
|---|
| Junkie` | IndyGunFreak: Yes, you are supposed to press 'c', but that isn't working | 01:41 |
|---|
| nickrud | hudyx, hibernate | 01:41 |
|---|
| Synx_hm | ikonia, all of a sudden the live cd will not boot, hrm | 01:41 |
|---|
| ikonia | nyce_: wine support in in #winehq | 01:41 |
|---|
| robertj_ | anyone know how to get sound working in java? | 01:41 |
|---|
| super-6-1_desk | !ask | nyce_ | 01:41 |
|---|
| ubotu | nyce_: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :) | 01:41 |
|---|
| ikonia | Synx_hm: thats interesting | 01:41 |
|---|
| jv_ | ikonia, i was only able to see when you asked if I had the restrictive driver enabled...:( | 01:41 |
|---|
| jv_ | answer is yes | 01:42 |
|---|
| nyce_ | i checked winehq | 01:42 |
|---|
| nyce_ | nevermind | 01:42 |
|---|
| superpie | how do i find a bottleneck for an application that takes a long time to load? | 01:42 |
|---|
| nyce_ | i understand | 01:42 |
|---|
| hudyx | nickrud: how do I boot Vista if I only hibernate Ubuntu? Don't I have to shut down/restart to get to the GRUB menu to boot Vista? | 01:42 |
|---|
| nyce_ | sorry | 01:42 |
|---|
| super-6-1_desk | nyce_: whats the others | 01:42 |
|---|
| IndyGunFreak | Junkie`: and changing the boot ini tab didn't work? | 01:42 |
|---|
| jv_ | hudyx: yes you do :) | 01:43 |
|---|
| nickrud | hudyx, if you hibernate, it does shut down. You can then reboot into windows, or linux later | 01:43 |
|---|
| super-6-1_desk | all right thanks everyone for the help | 01:43 |
|---|
| sainzeo | what are the commands that would be the same as going to System - Preferences - Appearance - Disable Compiz or Enable Compiz? | 01:43 |
|---|
| ikonia | sainzeo: use the gui | 01:43 |
|---|
| nickrud | hudyx, hibernate is not suspend | 01:43 |
|---|
| IndyGunFreak | Junkie`: look at #16 http://www.ethicalhack.org/howto/triple_boot_howto.html | 01:43 |
|---|
| Zionad_ | But hibernate saves the current condition, it doesnt run post, or allow you to see the grub bootloaser | 01:43 |
|---|
| sainzeo | ikonia: i would like to create a script to enable/disable compiz more quickly - do you know these commands? | 01:44 |
|---|
| Zionad_ | it goes directly to the saved condition | 01:44 |
|---|
| ikonia | sainzeo: use the gui, it is not practicle to script | 01:44 |
|---|
| sainzeo | ikonia: sorry, but I would like to script this, are you saying then you don' tknow? | 01:44 |
|---|
| jv_ | ikonia, plz tell me again what i need to do to ckeck compiz | 01:44 |
|---|
| ikonia | sainzeo: I'm saying it is possible but not practicle | 01:44 |
|---|
| hudyx | Zionad_: so there is no way to do what I want to do? save the Ubuntu state while I go into Vista? | 01:45 |
|---|
| jv_ | beryl had a beryl manager command that would bring up the interface to control beryl | 01:45 |
|---|
| sainzeo | ikonia: okay fine, it's not practical, what are these commands anyways? | 01:45 |
|---|
| Zionad_ | Hudyx, I do not think that is possible. | 01:45 |
|---|
| ikonia | sainzeo: its not "commands" you'll have to detect states and things like that | 01:45 |
|---|
| ikonia | sainzeo: its just just 2 commands | 01:45 |
|---|
| === u^A is now known as u^A_ |
| zlk | can someone tell me why i cant compile MPlayer with my ubuntu distro? probably has something to do with libc? when i ./configure i get "Error: Cannot find header either inttypes.h or bitypes.h. There is no chance for compilation to succeed." | 01:45 |
|---|
| sainzeo | ikonia: isn't there like metacity --replace and compiz --replace? | 01:45 |
|---|
| majkball | hmm... On one of my harddrives it says root is owner,... so I can't create any folders or do naything on it... how do I add a user to the restrictions? | 01:45 |
|---|
| ikonia | sainzeo: that is just part of it | 01:46 |
|---|
| buddhaboy | piedoggie: are you still there? | 01:46 |
|---|
| ikonia | zlk: why are you compiling mplayer | 01:46 |
|---|
| zlk | because synaptic wont install it | 01:46 |
|---|
| ikonia | zlk: the error message is quite clear that it can't find the headers | 01:46 |
|---|
| sainzeo | ikonia: okay, what else would i need to do in order to successfully script it? | 01:46 |
|---|
| ikonia | sainzeo: I've just said, its not straight forward | 01:46 |
|---|
| sunogbaga | zlk: just sudo apt-get install mplayer | 01:46 |
|---|
| ikonia | sainzeo: its not practicle | 01:46 |
|---|
| buddhaboy | piedoggie: I installed 7.1 with eqmu, and still got the same issue: ubuntu stops at /etc/rc.local | 01:46 |
|---|
| zlk | sunogbaga: E: Broken packages | 01:46 |
|---|
| sainzeo | ikonia: you may not think its practical, and maybe it isn't, but i would like this knowledge, therefore, do you actually know the commands to run or not? | 01:46 |
|---|
| zlk | it says it relies on liartsc0, libfaac0, liblame0, etc. | 01:47 |
|---|
| zlk | and says "but is not installable" | 01:47 |
|---|
| ikonia | sainzeo: why are you not listening, its just just "commands" | 01:47 |
|---|
| buddhaboy | anyone knows why a fresh install will stop booting after /etc/rc.local [OK] ?? | 01:47 |
|---|
| zlk | next to those packages | 01:47 |
|---|
| ikonia | zlk: you'll need to enable additional repo's | 01:47 |
|---|
| zlk | how do i go about doing that? | 01:47 |
|---|
| sainzeo | ikonia: i am listening, but there must be a way to script figuring out states and what not, like you had previously said | 01:47 |
|---|
| ikonia | sainzeo: www.compiz-fusion.org has all the docs | 01:47 |
|---|
| ikonia | sainzeo: had a read through them | 01:47 |
|---|
| sainzeo | ikonia: ok thank you | 01:48 |
|---|
| ikonia | zlk: system --> preferences --> software sources | 01:48 |
|---|
| sainzeo | zlk: its actually system --> administration --> software sources | 01:48 |
|---|
| zlk | im using ubuntu 7.04 feisty. i dont seem to have that option in preferences | 01:48 |
|---|
| ikonia | sainzeo: thank you | 01:48 |
|---|
| ikonia | zlk: did you see that | 01:48 |
|---|
| zlk | ah ta | 01:48 |
|---|
| sainzeo | ikonia: you're welcome | 01:48 |
|---|
| jv_ | what about gutsy? also uses compiz-fusion? | 01:49 |
|---|
| ikonia | jv_: gutsy comes with compiz-fusion already installed | 01:49 |
|---|
| jv_ | I can't figure why compiz won't start.... | 01:49 |
|---|
| buddhaboy | maybe I can get a lower version of ubuntu, where can I get 7.04? | 01:49 |
|---|
| nickrud | Zionad_, just did a hibernate, boot into windows, and then back into my hibernated desktop. Worked as expected | 01:49 |
|---|
| ikonia | buddhaboy: is there a reason you want 7.04 over 7.10 ? | 01:49 |
|---|
| sec_ | where to find pidgin for 6.06? | 01:49 |
|---|
| ikonia | sec_: it doesn't exist | 01:50 |
|---|
| ikonia | sec_: 6.06 uses gaim | 01:50 |
|---|
| buddhaboy | ikonia: yes, i install a fresh boot, and the screen gets stuck on: /etc/rc.local [ok] wont' go further, unless i hit enter | 01:50 |
|---|
| jv_ | what is the module name for compiz? compiz-fusion? | 01:50 |
|---|
| ivx | sec_ i'm sure you could build from sources but it isn't in repos | 01:50 |
|---|
| sec_ | ikonia: yes, i had gaim on 6.06; want to try pidgin | 01:50 |
|---|
| ikonia | buddhaboy: press enter and check your rc.local file | 01:50 |
|---|
| sainzeo | sec_: you may be able to compile it yourself successfully though by downloading the source from www.pidgin.im | 01:50 |
|---|
| sunogbaga | jv_: just system-preferences-desktop-effects | 01:50 |
|---|
| ikonia | sec_: pidgin is not available | 01:50 |
|---|
| _ope_ | i need help with vmware. i only get a display if im running the vm in debug mode | 01:51 |
|---|
| buddhaboy | ikonia: I've been on the forum, I don't have any isues with my rc.local file | 01:51 |
|---|
| ikonia | sainzeo: I don't think it will run due to tls dependencies on 6.0.6 | 01:51 |
|---|
| Zionad_ | nickrud: i have never seen a hibernate do that.. ever.... | 01:51 |
|---|
| ikonia | buddhaboy: what is in it ? | 01:51 |
|---|
| Aztec007 | hello everyone | 01:51 |
|---|
| Zionad_ | I mean, Its not supposed to | 01:51 |
|---|
| sec_ | why ubuntu dislike pidgin? | 01:51 |
|---|
| Zionad_ | its supposrd to save your session | 01:51 |
|---|
| ikonia | sec_: they don't | 01:51 |
|---|
| Aztec007 | what do you guys recommend reiserfs or reiser4? | 01:51 |
|---|
| Zionad_ | and boot into it!, thats why it uses hd space | 01:51 |
|---|
| ikonia | sec_: 6.0.6 was release long before pidgin existed | 01:51 |
|---|
| deniz_ | quick question, how do i mount a .img file on my desktop? | 01:51 |
|---|
| ikonia | Aztec007: resiser FS is a debatable topic for long term support | 01:52 |
|---|
| sainzeo | sec_: i would try compiling it from source first - it may not work, but probably won't hurt to try | 01:52 |
|---|
| marupa | Does anyone know if there's a way to set up VNC to allow me to 'share' my current desktop on a custom port, and like tightvnc for windows, have one password be full-control, and one be view-only? | 01:52 |
|---|
| ikonia | Aztec007: resierfs because of that issue | 01:52 |
|---|
| _ope_ | can anyone help? | 01:52 |
|---|
| sec_ | ikonia: LTS means: not add new software? | 01:52 |
|---|
| buddhaboy | ikonia: it only has "exit 0" | 01:52 |
|---|
| nickrud | Zionad_, it does write to hd, thats the point. The image is there to go back to at any time. | 01:52 |
|---|
| ikonia | sec_: not official, but yes | 01:52 |
|---|
| _ope_ | i also get this error when i try to full screen in vmware | 01:52 |
|---|
| _ope_ | Unable to find an appropriate host video mode. | 01:52 |
|---|
| _ope_ | Adding the guest mode to the 'display' subsection of the 'screen' section of your /etc/X11/XF86Config and restarting X is likely to help. | 01:52 |
|---|
| _ope_ | Failed to switch to full screen SVGA mode. | 01:52 |
|---|
| buddhaboy | ikonia: its a fresh install | 01:52 |
|---|
| ikonia | buddhaboy: ok, so look at the last scripts that excute before that | 01:52 |
|---|
| eido | has anyone installed original enemy territory on ubuntu? | 01:52 |
|---|
| ikonia | buddhaboy: | 01:52 |
|---|
| deniz_ | how do i mount a .img file?? | 01:52 |
|---|
| Aztec007 | ikonia: yeah, thats what I heard I just figured that it may be working now | 01:52 |
|---|
| jv_ | sunogbaga: that's the thing..i have gnome with elive..I go to appearnce and then I turned desktop effects | 01:52 |
|---|
| Zionad_ | nickrud: i see.... thanks for informing me of that! =] | 01:52 |
|---|
| marupa | deniz_, gmountiso | 01:52 |
|---|
| jv_ | told me to reboot which I did | 01:52 |
|---|
| nickrud | Zionad_, the only thing that might be different is I do use a bios password, but don't think that should matter | 01:53 |
|---|
| deniz_ | marupa, its not an iso | 01:53 |
|---|
| sec_ | i don't want to install gcc, *-dev on my only machine desktop | 01:53 |
|---|
| marupa | deniz_, convert it? | 01:53 |
|---|
| jv_ | now it says "desktops effects cannot be enabled" | 01:53 |
|---|
| buddhaboy | ikonia: ok fine. and I do a noshow, and remove quiet from boot to see message start ups, right? | 01:53 |
|---|
| eyemean | anyone find that firefox can sometimes be a hog on ubuntu 7.10? | 01:53 |
|---|
| ikonia | Aztec007: nope, not while the owner is being prosicuted for murder | 01:53 |
|---|
| eltux | I'm having some compiz problems again | 01:53 |
|---|
| deniz_ | how or with wat? | 01:53 |
|---|
| buddhaboy | ikonia: where would I see in the logs? what log file? | 01:53 |
|---|
| nickrud | Zionad_, eh, I can be obtuse and assuming about knowledge, don't mind me | 01:53 |
|---|
| ikonia | buddhaboy: thats an excellent idea | 01:53 |
|---|
| meticulo | yeah | 01:53 |
|---|
| deniz_ | marupa, how or with wat? | 01:53 |
|---|
| jv_ | I have glx | 01:53 |
|---|
| ikonia | buddhaboy: remove the splash image from the boot options in /boot/grub/menu.lst | 01:53 |
|---|
| Synx_hm | ikonia, hrm i did something lol, now no grub at all, my mobo is trying to boot over the network now doh! | 01:53 |
|---|
| IanLiu | How do I set Maxima package for TeXMacs? | 01:53 |
|---|
| Zionad_ | nickrud: hahah its fine | 01:53 |
|---|
| buddhaboy | ikonia: I already did the nosplash, and remove the quiet | 01:53 |
|---|
| sec_ | so, anyone has that deb for pidgin? | 01:53 |
|---|
| marupa | deniz_, That I cannot remember, unfortunately. I recall that I found the howto on google though. | 01:53 |
|---|
| jv_ | 267.888 | 01:53 |
|---|
| buddhaboy | ikonia: everything was "ok" before that | 01:53 |
|---|
| Aztec007 | ikonia: who's the owner? | 01:53 |
|---|
| deniz_ | any specific app? | 01:53 |
|---|
| deniz_ | marupa, any specific app? | 01:54 |
|---|
| ikonia | sec_: I've told you "it doesn't exist" | 01:54 |
|---|
| buddhaboy | ikonia: its like everything just stops: so maybe there is a log file? | 01:54 |
|---|
| ikonia | buddhaboy: no boot log | 01:54 |
|---|
| marupa | deniz_, Nope. Just look for 'img to iso convert ubuntu' or somesuch. | 01:54 |
|---|
| buddhaboy | ikonia: hmmm :$ | 01:54 |
|---|
| deniz_ | k, ill do so later | 01:54 |
|---|
| evo7 | How to setup a start up? I mean some program will run automatically once I log in. | 01:54 |
|---|
| deniz_ | thx | 01:54 |
|---|
| sunogbaga | jv_: probably haven't installed restricted drivers | 01:54 |
|---|
| nickrud | evo7, system->prefs->session | 01:54 |
|---|
| sec_ | ikonia: i see, it's not in official. | 01:54 |
|---|
| eltux | compiz won't allow me to select extra or anything else it gives me the error: The composite extension is not available | 01:54 |
|---|
| buddhaboy | ikonia: nope nothing is in it | 01:54 |
|---|

| talcite | any ideas why this might be? | 01:56 |

| sec_ | sainzeo: got my reply pm? | 01:56 |

| buddhaboy | ikonia: yep. i thought so, so i said ok, maybe vmware has an issue, but then i tried qemu | 01:56 |
|---|
| buddhaboy | ikonia: same thing.. | 01:56 |
|---|
| glen | my computer just locked up and crashed so I had to restart, how can I check system logs to see what caused it? | 01:56 |
|---|
| ikonia | buddhaboy: still virtualisation | 01:56 |
|---|
| marupa | talcite, could be proxy, dns, or relay issue. | 01:57 |

| IndyGunFreak | Junkie`: i really don't know... sorry. | 01:57 |

| buddhaboy | ikonia: thank for the time though! | 01:57 |
|---|
| marupa | talcite from the one that works, ping it, and try connecting to the IP. | 01:57 |
|---|
| ikonia | evo7: there is only one, the adobe one, but the package is currently broke | 01:57 |
|---|
| talcite | marupa: does ubuntu server use dhcpcd? | 01:58 |
|---|
| ikonia | talcite: its up to you if it does | 01:58 |
|---|
| jv_ | that's fine..tx | 01:58 |
|---|
| marupa | talcite, most probably. | 01:58 |
|---|
| ikonia | talcite: depends how you set it up | 01:58 |
|---|
| lulu | glen, System -> Administration -> System logs | 01:58 |
|---|
| talcite | ikonia: I see... hmm I can't remember what I selected for options =P | 01:58 |

| ikonia | talcite: then look | 01:58 |
|---|
| talcite | marupa: let me give it a shot, brb | 01:58 |
|---|
| evo7 | ikonia: so how to download? how about gnash? I tried but it not performs the best. :( | 01:58 |
|---|
| glen | lulu: hmm on xubuntu guess I'll try gnome-system-log instead | 01:58 |
|---|
| ikonia | evo7: gnash is still in early development | 01:59 |

| Alp- | i installed ubuntu on one 10gb partition. now i created a second partition which has to contain my /home directory. how can i setup that without reinstalling ubuntu? | 01:59 |
|---|
| Junkie` | IndyGunFreak: I added it and when i select it i get an error saying it didn't have access to the harddisk | 01:59 |
|---|
| talcite | marupa: hmm it might be DNS... there's no response to pings | 01:59 |
|---|
| ikonia | Alp-: copy the data from /home to the partition then mount your new partition on /home | 01:59 |
|---|
| evo7 | ikonia: so now I cant download any flash plugin for firefox? | 01:59 |
|---|
| lulu | glen, you can always check logs looking at files in /var/log | 01:59 |
|---|
| Junkie` | To the boot.ini, that is | 01:59 |
|---|
| IndyGunFreak | Junkie`: i don't have the first idea.. sorry | 01:59 |
|---|
| ikonia | evo7: not at this exact second | 01:59 |
|---|
| Junkie` | no worries | 01:59 |
|---|
| Junkie` | thanks anyway | 01:59 |

| Synx_hm | ikonia, ive tried a number of things doing the manual grub install, using /sbin/grub-install /dev/sda1 and none work, i have no mbr i think because it keeps going directly to network booting | 02:00 |

|---|
| evo7 | ikonia: ok thank you. | 02:00 |

| Synx_hm | ikonia, ill do that one more time because i think the dvd drive might be hd0 | 02:00 |
|---|
| jv_ | dhclient? | 02:00 |
|---|
| ikonia | talcite: thats a server, you'd be using dhclient | 02:00 |
|---|
| Alp- | ikonia: it's that easy? just adding a line to fstab? | 02:00 |
|---|
| nickrud | Alp-, add a line like /dev/hda8 /home ext3 defaults 0 1 to your /etc/fstab | 02:00 |

| sunogbaga | evo7: are you trying to install flashplayer for firefox? | 02:02 |
|---|
| ikonia | Alp-: copy the data over then delete it | 02:02 |

| ikonia | talcite: no, thats dhcp | 02:02 |

|---|
| ikonia | nickrud: on gutsy | 02:03 |
|---|
| nickrud | ikonia, yes | 02:03 |

| ikonia | eyemean: that restarts the xserver | 02:03 |
|---|
| ikonia | nickrud: I need to investigate that as you shouldn't get it | 02:03 |
|---|
| nickrud | ikonia, now you make me wonder if my swap was working on that one :) | 02:03 |
|---|
| ikonia | nickrud: thats a good question | 02:03 |

In Administration- Printing I DO have it set to share and to not restrict any users. Is there something else I need to do? | 02:04 |
|---|
| ikonia | eyemean: the xserver is your "gui" | 02:04 |
|---|
| eyemean | ikonia, oh right, so basically if pc ubuntu getting slow, have to do full reboot? | 02:05 |
|---|
| ikonia | eyemean: it shouldn't get slow | 02:05 |

| teknoprep | ever | 02:05 |

| evo7 | sunogbaga: yes. I want to install flash plugin for firefox. :) | 02:05 |
|---|
| teknoprep | evo7 is pretty easy | 02:06 |
|---|
| Alp- | how can i get the uuid of my partition? | 02:06 |
|---|
| eyemean | ikonia, it does someties, like now for instance the cpu is working flat out, it didnt used to be like this | 02:06 |
|---|
| ikonia | Alp-: blkid | 02:06 |
|---|
| ikonia | eyemean: are you running froma livecd or a hard disk insall | 02:06 |
|---|
| ikonia | install | 02:06 |
|---|
| eyemean | ikonia, hd | 02:06 |
|---|
| teknoprep | eyemean, what process is taking up that much cpu usage? | 02:06 |
|---|
| sunogbaga | evo7: just sudo-apt get install flashplugin-nonfree | 02:06 |
|---|
| ikonia | eyemean: use top to see what is eating your cpu | 02:06 |
|---|
| ikonia | sunogbaga: the flash package is currently broke | 02:06 |
|---|
| teknoprep | eyemean, if you open up a console and type ' top ' into it | 02:07 |
|---|
| marupa | Can anyone point me to a howto to get tightvnc to work (or some method to share a current desktop session, not create a new one) | 02:07 |
|---|
| ikonia | eyemean: do not do that command yet | 02:07 |
|---|
| kkathman | Sigh, I figured that question might be above the help level here :( | 02:07 |
|---|
| Synx_hm | ikonia, nada, ive got the drives setup as follows... /dev/sda1 (boot) /dev/sda2 (swap) /dev/sda3 (software raid) /dev/sdb1 (software raid) /dev/md0 (raid 0 with sda3 and sdb1) | 02:07 |
|---|
| teknoprep | eyemean, it will show you what processes are using so much cpu time | 02:07 |
|---|
| ikonia | kkathman: as your question | 02:07 |
|---|
| ikonia | Synx_hm: raid 0 ! | 02:07 |
|---|
| kkathman | ? | 02:07 |
|---|
| ikonia | Synx_hm: I thought you said raid 1 | 02:07 |
|---|
| ikonia | kkathman: I didn't see your question | 02:07 |
|---|
| eyemean | ikonia, forefox at the moment, it hits 70 at times | 02:07 |
|---|
| evo7 | sunogbaga: ok I try | 02:07 |
|---|
| kkathman | k | 02:07 |
|---|
| ikonia | evo7: don't | 02:07 |
|---|
| ikonia | evo7: the package is currently broke | 02:08 |
|---|
| teknoprep | eyemean, what cpu do you have? | 02:08 |
|---|
| sunogbaga | ow | 02:08 |
|---|
| Alp- | ikonia: that doesnt show me the new partition | 02:08 |
|---|
| Synx_hm | ikonia, i dont think so but i might have | 02:08 |
|---|
| ikonia | Synx_hm: I may have miss-read | 02:08 |
|---|
| eyemean | ikonia, athlon xp200+ - 1.7Ghz | 02:08 |
|---|
| ikonia | Synx_hm: is /boot on a raid partition | 02:08 |
|---|
| teknoprep | eyemean, that would probably be why | 02:08 |
|---|
| teknoprep | eyemean, i mean that cpu is getting older | 02:08 |

| burnninator | can someone recommend some software like jinzora, but will play the music via the web browser ? | 02:08 |
|---|
| burnninator | kinda like pandora | 02:08 |
|---|
| teknoprep | eyemean, they don't have alot cache on them either | 02:08 |
|---|
| Synx_hm | ikonia, its own partition | 02:08 |
|---|
| ikonia | Alp-: man uuidgen | 02:09 |
|---|
| eyemean | teknoprep, but i didnt have this problem last week | 02:09 |
|---|
| sunogbaga | ikonia: what happens when u do? | 02:09 |
|---|
| ikonia | Synx_hm: ok, this is going to get complex, | 02:09 |
|---|
| teknoprep | eyemean, what did you change? | 02:09 |
|---|
| macandcheese | hi all | 02:09 |
|---|
| ikonia | Synx_hm: basiclly you'll need to update you initrd to include support for raid0 | 02:09 |
|---|
| eyemean | teknoprep, nothing, lol | 02:09 |
|---|
| ikonia | sunogbaga: it installs the meta package, but not the actual plug | 02:09 |
|---|
| ikonia | plugin | 02:09 |
|---|
| Synx_hm | ikonia, i used the text based install to do the software raid setup | 02:09 |
|---|
| macandcheese | anyone know how to set up an asus eas1600 silent video card with ubuntu? | 02:09 |
|---|
| teknoprep | eyemean, thats impossible.. things don't change unless you tell them too | 02:09 |
|---|
| teknoprep | eyemean, unless you have a hardware problem | 02:09 |
|---|
| macandcheese | i can't get any driver to make it work | 02:10 |
|---|
| teknoprep | macandcheese, modules not drivers | 02:10 |
|---|
| inanna | eso te pasa por estar enamorante a distancia en internet , no aprendes , | 02:10 |
|---|
| eyemean | teknoprep, it look slike firefox is the problem, its use alot of cpu at times | 02:10 |
|---|
| teknoprep | eyemean, try purging it then reinstalling it... see if it does the same thing | 02:10 |
|---|
| teknoprep | eyemean, you can try this ' apt-get purge firefox ' | 02:10 |
|---|
| ikonia | why ? | 02:11 |
|---|
| ikonia | why re-install something for no reason ? | 02:11 |
|---|
| teknoprep | why what | 02:11 |
|---|
| eyemean | teknoprep, im new to linux, but im sure i havent changed any settings | 02:11 |
|---|
| teknoprep | ikonia, well if he thinks its the problem why not | 02:11 |
|---|
| ikonia | because it's pointless | 02:11 |
|---|
| nickrud | ikonia, I just did a test here, and /dev/hda8 /media/i386-home ext3 defaults 0 2 works as expected | 02:11 |
|---|
| eyemean | teknoprep, is it best to save my favourites first? | 02:11 |
|---|
| Synx_hm | ikonia, the key problem is anyways that grub is not installing on the mbr at all... | 02:11 |
|---|
| ikonia | nickrud: I'll look into that, thank you | 02:11 |
|---|
| MasterShrek | eyemean, have you installed and extensions that may be causing firefox to do that? | 02:11 |
|---|
| teknoprep | eyemean, you should use google browser sync | 02:11 |
|---|
| ikonia | Synx_hm: thats easy to fix, the root file system problem is not | 02:11 |
|---|
| teknoprep | eyemean, but yes you would have to fix it | 02:12 |
|---|
| eyemean | mastershrek, i do have extensions installed on firefox, but havent installed any for ages | 02:12 |
|---|
| Synx_hm | ikonia, ive got two 400gb sata drives, one had 3 partitons on it, one boot one swap and one for the raid, the other drive is one partition all for the raid, i used the text alternate install cd to set it up and it seemed to work just fine, i assume it would have setup with kernel software raid (not fakeraid) support | 02:12 |
|---|
| ikonia | eyemean: you probably just have too much running, too many tabs, busy website with flash etc | 02:13 |
|---|
| teknoprep | eyemean, what exactly is the problem tho? | 02:13 |
|---|
| eyemean | teknoprep, what is google browser sync for? | 02:13 |
|---|
| ikonia | Synx_hm: yes, thats right | 02:13 |
|---|
| teknoprep | eyemean, it syncs your browser to your gmail account.. that way you never loose your bookmarks / whatever else firefox saves | 02:13 |
|---|
| ikonia | Synx_hm: did you not understand what I said about having raid 0 as your root file system | 02:13 |
|---|
| Synx_hm | ikonia, any ideas why grub wont install then, ive tried both manual and automatic modes | 02:13 |
|---|
| eyemean | teknoprep, high cpu usage of firefox, i cant watch tv properly on pc now without it screen slowing down from tv | 02:13 |
|---|
| ikonia | Synx_hm: your not using the correct grub options, or your motherboard is not booting off the right disk | 02:14 |
|---|
| teknoprep | eyemean, things don't just happen tho man.. you had to have done something | 02:14 |
|---|
| eyemean | teknoprep, that sounds cool , neverknew about that | 02:14 |
|---|
| eido | how do i change folder permission to all | 02:14 |
|---|
| Synx_hm | ikonia, ya i do, but my understanding of software raid and not fakeraid (bios software raid) was that kernel support was automatic | 02:14 |
|---|
| ikonia | Synx_hm: kernel support IS, initrd is NOT | 02:14 |
|---|
| eyemean | teknoprep, well i havent been brave enough to do anything new or weird incase i messed up ubuntu | 02:15 |
|---|
| Synx_hm | ikonia, ahh so the install cd will not set that up for you if you select software raid as the partition for / | 02:15 |
|---|
| ikonia | Synx_hm: I don't believe so | 02:15 |
|---|
| Synx_hm | ikonia, sorry this is all a bit new to me | 02:15 |

| ikonia | Synx_hm: thats fine, raid 1 = yes, raid 0 I don't know, nor do I think so | 02:15 |
|---|
| teknoprep | eyemean, i purposely skrew things up so i learn how to fix it | 02:15 |
|---|
| teknoprep | eyemean, took me awhile but i figured out why my laptop's hibernate doesn't work after i do an update with ubuntu | 02:15 |
|---|
| teknoprep | eyemean, and it was worth it to do this too | 02:16 |
|---|
| cizarr | what's the shortcut key for the terminal console? | 02:16 |
|---|
| kkathman | ok I figured it out | 02:16 |
|---|
| teknoprep | eyemean, simple things you skrew up... will help you in the future.. now i have a better grasp on how acpi is implemented into linux | 02:16 |
|---|
| MasterShrek | cizarr, ctrl+alt+f1-f6 ctrl+alt+f7 to get back to your gui | 02:16 |
|---|
| eyemean | teknoprep, i havent been on ubuntu for long so i wont risk it, plus i dont have time to do that at the moment | 02:16 |
|---|
| teknoprep | eyemean, you still have a large learning curve.. sure you can enjoy ubunut.. but you should still learn it | 02:17 |
|---|
| teknoprep | eyemean, linux has stupid amount of options | 02:17 |
|---|
| cizarr | thanks MasterShrek | 02:17 |
|---|
| eyemean | teknoprep, ur right though, its the only way to learn, but when i have more time, i got too much diy to do these days at home, hahaha | 02:17 |
|---|
| Synx_hm | ikonia, well the bios is not finding any mbr at all so i at least need to fix grub first and then see what happenes from there | 02:18 |
|---|
| Synx_hm | ikonia, i did root (hd0,0) which should be /dev/sda1 and setup (hd0) | 02:18 |
|---|
| ikonia | Synx_hm: you know what happens, it was failing last time | 02:18 |

| Synx_hm | ikonia, i figured it was an actual mbr error | 02:19 |
|---|
| MasterShrek | Synx_hm, maybe try sd0,0 | 02:19 |

| danc3 | david_J: html *is* text | 02:19 |

| MasterShrek | ikonia, sorry, i didnt think of it as nonsense, im not using grub but i thought i remembered doing that once... | 02:19 |

| ikonia | MasterShrek: you've never dont that, that option doesn't exist | 02:19 |
|---|
| david_J | forget it bye | 02:19 |
|---|
| ikonia | Synx_hm: that option doesn't exist | 02:20 |
|---|
| Synx_hm | i didn't think so hehe | 02:20 |
|---|
| MasterShrek | ok ikonia, my mistake | 02:20 |
|---|
| teknoprep | eyemean, just goto www.google.com and search for google browser sync | 02:20 |
|---|
| ikonia | MasterShrek: no problem | 02:20 |
|---|
| Synx_hm | ikonia, find /boot/grub/stage1 doesn't work btw | 02:20 |
|---|
| Synx_hm | ikonia, but i am able to see /boot and all thats on the /dev/sda1 partition | 02:20 |
|---|
| ikonia | Synx_hm: hang on, so your /boot partition is sd1 ? yes/no | 02:20 |
|---|
| Synx_hm | ikonia, yes | 02:20 |
|---|
| talcite | man this is ridiculous | 02:20 |
|---|
| teknoprep | talcite, what is? | 02:21 |
|---|
| ikonia | Synx_hm: ok, so your root option is (hd0,0) and your setup option is (hd0) is that what you are using ? | 02:21 |
|---|
| talcite | teknoprep: I got the DNS servers working and the NTP servers kicked in | 02:21 |
|---|
| Synx_hm | ikonia, yup | 02:21 |
|---|
| talcite | teknoprep: I'm now locked out of sudo | 02:21 |
|---|
| ezzieyguywuf | I'm trying to report a bug. when they ask you to add the output of uname -a, sudo lspci -wnn and sudo dmidecode, how do i get those in the form of a file instead of just in the terminal | 02:21 |
|---|
| ikonia | Synx_hm: and in your /boot/grub/device.map that is the correct mapping hd0 is sda ? | 02:21 |
|---|
| talcite | teknoprep: the time stamps are too far in the future, I can't kill sudo, I can't validate it either | 02:21 |
|---|
| Synx_hm | ikonia, let me check | 02:21 |
|---|
| danc3 | Synx_hm: s/sda/hda | 02:21 |
|---|
| teknoprep | talcite, you have to update all of your files | 02:21 |
|---|
| ezzieyguywuf | when i type sudo dmidecode, for example, the output appears to be too large for the terminal and i don't even get all of it, just the end | 02:21 |
|---|
| jrib | ezzieyguywuf: COMMAND > /path/to/file | 02:21 |
|---|
| talcite | teknoprep: I tried logging out but it didn't work. I can't shutdown or reboot because I need to be root | 02:22 |
|---|
| teknoprep | talcite, i forget what it is brb | 02:22 |
|---|
| talcite | teknoprep: what do you mean? | 02:22 |
|---|
| ezzieyguywuf | jrib: thank you | 02:22 |
|---|
| talcite | teknoprep: sure | 02:22 |
|---|
| jrib | ezzieyguywuf: that will overwrite anything in /path/to/file if it already exists by the way | 02:22 |
|---|
| ChrisUFO | xlcfg -g or xlcfg -gtk | 02:22 |
|---|
| myusrnm | upon opening azures, it closes | 02:22 |
|---|
| ChrisUFO | myusrnm: I have the same problem actually! | 02:23 |
|---|
| Synx_hm | ikonia, ohh ... (hd0) is /dev/hdb (my dvd drive) doh and hd1 is the /dev/sda ill try that | 02:23 |
|---|
| ezzieyguywuf | jrib: do i specify a file type, ie .txt? | 02:23 |
|---|
| ikonia | Synx_hm: there you go | 02:23 |
|---|
| ikonia | so you want hd1,0 | 02:23 |
|---|
| Nighthawk420 | hey howcome bittorent, ktorrent, and bittornado all do a horrible job of dowloading my torrents, like uber s low, and i used to be able to dl them real fast on windows... is it something with my ports/ | 02:23 |
|---|
| ikonia | and hd1 as a setup | 02:23 |
|---|
| Synx_hm | ikonia, however grub seems to be confused, because when i do root (hd0, <tab> it lists all the partitions on sda1 | 02:23 |
|---|
| eyemean | after pruging firefox should i restart then install again? | 02:23 |
|---|
| sunogbaga | Nighthawk420: might be | 02:23 |
|---|
| myusrnm | i need help with my azureus problem, upon opening azureus it closes. Has anybody heard of this problem and know what the cause / solution might be | 02:24 |
|---|
| ikonia | Synx_hm: because sda1 is correct | 02:24 |
|---|
| myusrnm | ? | 02:24 |
|---|
| sunogbaga | Nighthawk420: under nat maybe... | 02:24 |
|---|
| ikonia | Synx_hm: but grub wants hd1,0 and hd1 | 02:24 |
|---|
| Nighthawk420 | should it be under nat or not on nat? | 02:24 |
|---|
| Synx_hm | ikonia, ya but im saying grub thinks sda1 is hd0 when it is infact hd1, no? | 02:24 |
|---|
| eyemean | <teknoprep, after pruging firefox should i restart then install again? | 02:24 |
|---|
| sunogbaga | Nighthawk420: if youre under nat, should probably try port forwarding | 02:24 |
|---|
| ikonia | Synx_hm: because the device map is overriding | 02:24 |
|---|
| evo7 | I want to add gDesklet in start up but I do not know the application name to put. How to check it? | 02:25 |
|---|
| Nighthawk420 | sunogbaga, cant i just as easily disable nat settings | 02:25 |
|---|
| Synx_hm | ikonia, so what do i need to edit? | 02:25 |
|---|
| evo7 | I tried gDesklets but it didnt work. | 02:25 |
|---|
| ikonia | Synx_hm: I've told you, re-install grub to root hd1,0 and setup hd1 | 02:25 |
|---|
| sunogbaga | evo7: system preferences sessions | 02:25 |
|---|
| Synx_hm | ikonia, because it wont install to hd1... setup (hd1) Error 17: Cannot mount selected partition | 02:25 |
|---|
| myusrnm | Nvm, apparently deleting .azureus seemed to work | 02:26 |
|---|
| ikonia | Synx_hm: exactly what commands are you using ? | 02:26 |
|---|
| evo7 | sunogbaga: yes I know it. But we need to put the name of application inside. I do not know the name of it | 02:26 |
|---|
| Synx_hm | ikonia, root (hd1,0)... setup (hd1) | 02:26 |
|---|
| sunogbaga | put any name, just put the right command | 02:26 |
|---|
| ikonia | Synx_hm: in the grub shell ? | 02:26 |
|---|
| Synx_hm | ikonia, yes | 02:26 |
|---|
| evo7 | sunogbaga: I do not the the command for gDesklets. I tried put gDesklet but dint work. | 02:27 |
|---|
| talcite | wow I discovered a bug in ubuntu... first time ever =D | 02:27 |
|---|
| ikonia | Synx_hm: something is very wrong here | 02:27 |
|---|
| Synx_hm | ikonia, also tried 'sudo /usr/sbin/grub-install /dev/sda1 | 02:27 |
|---|
| Synx_hm | ikonia, i agree hehe | 02:27 |
|---|
| sunogbaga | haven't install gdesklet yet, try gdesklets .. no caps | 02:28 |
|---|
| ikonia | Synx_hm: I can only think your raid config has messed up your drive layouts | 02:28 |
|---|
| sunogbaga | evo7: try it on the terminal first | 02:28 |
|---|
| evo7 | sunogbaga: ok. I try. | 02:28 |
|---|
| Synx_hm | ikonia, heres what fdisk -l has to say... /dev/sda1 bootable (/boot) /dev/sda2 swap /dev/sda3 Linux raid autodetect /dev/sdb1 Linux raid autodetect | 02:29 |
|---|
| evo7 | sunogbaga: yes. it's working. | 02:29 |
|---|
| evo7 | sunogbaga: Thank you man. | 02:29 |
|---|
| teknoprep | i guess the timestamp is to far into the future | 02:29 |
|---|
| Evilx | does the live cd have the RT8187 drivers on it? | 02:29 |
|---|
| ikonia | Synx_hm: I'm afraid its bed time for me | 02:29 |
|---|
| ikonia | Synx_hm: but that all looks normal | 02:29 |
|---|
| talcite | ahh thank goodness for tty... | 02:30 |
|---|
| talcite | I'd be boned without it | 02:30 |
|---|
| Synx_hm | ikonia, cool thanks for your help though :) ill figure this ish out hehe | 02:30 |
|---|
| talcite | atleast for an hour anyways | 02:30 |
|---|
| sunogbaga | evo7: no problem | 02:30 |
|---|
| ikonia | Synx_hm: you may want to correct your device.map to make things easier | 02:30 |
|---|
| Synx_hm | ikonia, will do thanks | 02:30 |
|---|
| ikonia | Synx_hm: ahhhh | 02:30 |
|---|
| ikonia | Synx_hm: its just hit me | 02:30 |
|---|
| ikonia | Synx_hm: got it | 02:30 |
|---|
| ikonia | sorry, I was being slow | 02:30 |
|---|
| Synx_hm | huh? | 02:30 |
|---|
| ikonia | Synx_hm: your doing this from the livecd yes/no | 02:30 |
|---|
| Synx_hm | yes | 02:31 |
|---|
| daks | !device.map | 02:31 |
|---|
| ubotu | Sorry, I don't know anything about device.map - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi | 02:31 |
|---|
| ikonia | Synx_hm: ok, stop me if I confuse you | 02:31 |
|---|
| teknoprep | hey talcite | 02:31 |
|---|
| teknoprep | talcite, you still there | 02:31 |
|---|
| ikonia | Synx_hm: the livecd has "probed" your disk, so /dev/sda IS hd0 on the livecd, which is why you can't install to hd1 | 02:31 |
|---|
| teknoprep | talcite, do this... ' sudo -k ; sudo -K ' | 02:31 |
|---|
| daks | ikonia: what is device.map? | 02:31 |
|---|
| ikonia | Synx_hm: follow so far | 02:31 |
|---|
| ikonia | daks: I'll get back to you | 02:31 |
|---|
| Synx_hm | ikonia, ikonia ya | 02:31 |
|---|
| lovedeatm | can anybody help me wit an ipod issue..or am in the wrong place | 02:32 |
|---|
| talcite | teknoprep: yup, I'm here | 02:32 |
|---|
| ikonia | Synx_hm: however when you boot from your hard disk the device.map is probed to get the disk layout which says sda = hd1 not hd0, so menu.lst can't be found so grub won't init | 02:32 |
|---|
| talcite | teknoprep: believe it or not, it was a bug in ubuntu 0.o | 02:32 |
|---|
| ikonia | Synx_hm: make sense ? | 02:32 |
|---|
| teknoprep | talcite, did you fix it? | 02:32 |
|---|
| Synx_hm | ikonia, ya | 02:32 |
|---|
| talcite | teknoprep: I had to log into tty2 and delete the sudo file for tty1 | 02:32 |
|---|
| _patbam | hi, is it normal for apt-get to ask me to put in my gutsy cd when i try to install things? | 02:32 |
|---|
| talcite | teknoprep: yup =D | 02:32 |
|---|
| Synx_hm | ikonia, i figured something like that was happening | 02:32 |
|---|
| ikonia | Synx_hm: fix your device.map on your disk, and re-install grub onto hd0 on the livecd and you'll be fine | 02:32 |
|---|
| talcite | teknoprep: thanks =D | 02:32 |
|---|
| ikonia | Synx_hm: sorry, took me a moment for that to click | 02:33 |
|---|
| talcite | hey guys, how do you perform a dist-upgrade on ubuntu server? | 02:33 |
|---|
| Synx_hm | ikonia, ok ill do that, thanks! | 02:33 |
|---|
| ikonia | _patbam: remove the cd source line from /etc/sources.list | 02:33 |
|---|
| talcite | I'm still running feisty | 02:33 |
|---|
| ikonia | _patbam: /etc/apt/sources.list | 02:33 |
|---|
| ikonia | Synx_hm: sorry, I was missing the ovious | 02:33 |
|---|
| ikonia | obvious | 02:33 |
|---|
| ikonia | daks: device.map is a grub file used to map physical disks to grub device identifiers | 02:33 |
|---|
| _patbam | ikonia: thanks. | 02:33 |
|---|
| lovedeatm | how do you enable repos via konsole | 02:34 |

| ikonia | Synx_hm: remount read/write | 02:34 |
|---|
| patbam | ikonia: don't ih ave to do an apt-get update or some such after editing that file? | 02:34 |
|---|
| teknoprep | lovedeatm, but you want to doit from the console... sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list | 02:34 |
|---|
| ikonia | patbam: you do | 02:34 |

| nadine | hello. i've been using various versions of ubuntu for about two years now, but still can't get samba working consistently for the life of me. it seems to work for about a day every two months, but then its back to not being able to connect (btwn two ubuntu systems; i use samba cuz sometimes there's a winpc on the network). anyone have any pointers? | 02:42 |
|---|
| talcite | hmm... does anyone know if systems with non-matching times would affect SSH logins with RSA keys? | 02:42 |

| SpookyET | account | 02:42 |

| Iggz | I'm finding 7.10 very buggy on my rig - I am aware that there have been issues for some and it appears that I am one of them. However, I do like the OS and want to stay with it. While waiting on hardy I'd like to stay with ubuntu. So, which version would you suggst - 7.4 or 6.10? | 02:43 |
|---|
| evo7 | i download cpu meter for gdesklets .. how to install it? .. i tried in /usr/share/gdesklets/display but i din work. | 02:43 |
|---|
| teknoprep | SpookyET, also imap only caches on your localhost... your going to have to get your emails downloaded again no matter what | 02:43 |
|---|
| IdleOne | Iggz: try 6.10 if it works well then !upgrade to 7.04 | 02:44 |
|---|
| yan_ | how do i find the size of each installed program? | 02:44 |
|---|
| SpookyET | teknoprep: not if you make it sync and download everything. | 02:44 |
|---|
| yan_ | my /root folder is being used up | 02:44 |
|---|
| SirBob1701 | anyone know status on new nvidia drivers? | 02:44 |
|---|
| engla_ | yan_: in synaptic you can see sizes of installed programs | 02:45 |
|---|
| Iggz | IdelOne: Thank you sounds a good idea. Can you do a download upgrade by the way otr is it a fresh installll everytime? | 02:45 |
|---|
| === sabayonuser is now known as sabaya |
| teknoprep | SirBob1701, why do you want new drivers? | 02:45 |
|---|
| engla_ | yan_: however, there are no installed programs in /root | 02:45 |
|---|
| yan_ | I mean in the root partition | 02:45 |
|---|
| SirBob1701 | teknoprep: the current ones crash on video files sometimes and require a restart to play correctly. | 02:45 |
|---|
| engla_ | well open synaptic, go to settings and make sure the column for installed size is enabled, then go to installed packages, and sort by installed size | 02:46 |
|---|
| engla_ | that's the recipe :) | 02:46 |
|---|
| teknoprep | SirBob1701, you sure thats nv drivers and not just your divx / decoder ? | 02:46 |
|---|
| SirBob1701 | teknoprep: reinstalled them several times already to see if it was them | 02:46 |

| talcite | hey guys, where's the NTP server file kept? | 02:46 |

|---|
| teknoprep | talcite, do this ' sudo updatedb ' | 02:47 |
|---|
| teknoprep | talcite, after that finishs do this ' sudo locate ntp | grep conf | 02:47 |

| SteveScum | is there a way i can view/edit upnp devices on my network, like my router? | 02:48 |
|---|
| * nickrud boggles at hardy now | 02:48 |
| IdleOne | nickrud: that good or bad? | 02:49 |
|---|
| teknoprep | SteveScum, there are programs that use upnp to open ports on routers but the best way to update your router configs is best through the web configuration | 02:49 |
|---|
| nickrud | IdleOne, I grew up in linux running debian unstable, but ubuntu betas more than a month or so before release? I like to get things done :) | 02:49 |
|---|
| teknoprep | SteveScum, most torrent programs have a upnp plugin tha tworks with upnp enabled routers | 02:50 |
|---|
| SteveScum | yeah, its not for my router, and the only way i can access it for the first time is upnp, but i dont know a program to access upnp | 02:50 |
|---|
| SteveScum | its another device i mean | 02:51 |
|---|
| teknoprep | what is it? | 02:51 |
|---|
| teknoprep | sounds like a shitty device | 02:51 |

| MiLK | hi guys. i'm trying to install ubuntu onto a partition that I have already created under windows. i have chosen the 'manual' option, and when i select my partition and click forward it says 'no root file system specified'. what am i doing wrong? | 02:52 |
|---|
| MasterShrek | MiLK, make the mount point / | 02:53 |
|---|
| MasterShrek | MiLK, also youll prolly want a swap partition | 02:53 |
|---|
| nickrud | ohioguy, I have a couple of one liners I used to use, no error checking but they work, I'll put them on a pastebin | 02:53 |

| Elizabeth | hello, has anyone had a problem with 64-bit OS livecds like ubuntu and leopard kernel panicking | 02:54 |
|---|
| makuseru | are there any other audio recording/editing programs that are free, besides audacity? | 02:54 |
|---|
| MiLK | do i do it via 'edit partition'? | 02:54 |
|---|
| MasterShrek | MiLK, generally you want to make the swap partition of size equal to the amount of ram you have, although i cannot exactly tell you how to do it (since i dont have the installer right in front of me) it shold be pretty straight forward | 02:54 |
|---|
| Elizabeth | i have a ecs board with intel core 2 duo i think 1.86Ghz | 02:54 |
|---|
| F0o | ohioguy 50 miles closer waiting, hmm i think the later advice was better dont update | 02:54 |

| MiLK | ok thx | 02:54 |

| modoc | Is there a utility for watching a directory for changes (add/remove files, etc)? | 02:55 |
|---|
| nickrud | ohioguy, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/47649/ , I'd run these overnight, the first if I wasn't already on line, the second if I was | 02:55 |
|---|
| ohioguy | but I don't like the idae of not getting security updates , | 02:55 |
|---|
| MiLK | what format should the swap partition be MasterShrek? | 02:55 |
|---|
| HoboBen | Anyone else got a regularly-broken back button in swiftfox 3.0b2pre? | 02:55 |
|---|
| k1dugar | can someone help me out with "seahorse-agent" | 02:55 |
|---|
| MasterShrek | MiLK, it shold be swap or maybe its called linux-swap | 02:55 |
|---|
| modoc | MiLK: the type/format is swap | 02:55 |
|---|
| MiLK | ah, im hguessing 'swap' lol | 02:56 |
|---|
| MiLK | yes | 02:56 |

| bbardlbradd | Hey, I'm partitioning for 7.10, should this be logical or primary? Also, the mount point should be just "/" (without quotation) right? | 02:56 |
|---|
| MiLK | my bad :P | 02:56 |
|---|
| jaypro | anyone know what to do? | 02:56 |
|---|
| MasterShrek | !medibuntu | jaypro | 02:56 |

| modoc | jrib: will do, thanks | 02:56 |
|---|
| nickrud | ohioguy, you can drop the y from the -dy options if you don't want to manually do the actual upgrade install | 02:56 |
|---|
| nickrud | ohioguy, I mean do want to | 02:56 |
|---|
| bbardlbradd | I'm setting it up to Dual boot Vista/7.10 | 02:56 |
|---|
| MasterShrek | bbardlbradd, primary | 02:56 |
|---|
| jaypro | that was quick... thanks for the link MasterShrek | 02:56 |
|---|
| MasterShrek | bbardlbradd, coorect, just a / no quotes | 02:57 |
|---|
| MasterShrek | np jaypro | 02:57 |
|---|
| Elizabeth | yeah is there any good reason to use anything but primary these days | 02:57 |
|---|
| MiLK | what format should my main linux drive be? | 02:57 |
|---|
| MasterShrek | if you want more than 4 partitions | 02:57 |
|---|
| MasterShrek | ext3 MiLK | 02:57 |

| ArrPirate | Hello. I have a friend who is blind. She has very little vision. Is there an Ubuntu setup that she can download that is already set up for the blind or will I have to customize one for her? | 02:57 |

| k1dugar | I can't create SSH keys via "Seahorse", its missing. I can only create "PGP keys". Does anyone know the fix?? | 02:57 |
|---|
| MasterShrek | bbardlbradd, it depends on alot of factors, are you worried about how much ram you have? | 02:58 |
|---|
| jrib | modoc: just read about incron, but depends on what you want to do | 02:58 |
|---|
| bbardlbradd | MasterShrek, I have only 1Gb of memory and GPU shares it. | 02:58 |
|---|
| * stemount pokes kbrooks | 02:58 |
| stemount | :0 | 02:58 |

| MasterShrek | bbardlbradd, youll be just fine, thats how my machine is set up | 02:59 |
|---|
| modoc | jrib: I'd like to have something watches a directory periodicly and updates a playlist. | 02:59 |
|---|
| k1dugar | can someone help me out?? | 02:59 |
|---|
| HoboBen | bbardlbradd - with 2gb of RAM, ubuntu uses none of my swap here. With 512MB it uses something like 30MB | 02:59 |
|---|
| ohioguy | nickrud , thanks for the info ,, I'll try that , | 02:59 |
|---|
| jrib | modoc: yep, you can do that with any of the three. incron works like cron though | 02:59 |
|---|
| bbardlbradd | I have 36Gb @ my disposal, I plan on putting Leopard on the smallest patrician... just b/c i know it'll be a while before I work it all out right... | 02:59 |
|---|
| Elizabeth | bbardlbradd unless you are gaming or running compiz with all the perks up high the gpu shouldn't use much, it kind of depends on what programs you are going to be running | 02:59 |
|---|
| bbardlbradd | HoboBen, orly? interesting. | 03:00 |
|---|
| ArrPirate | so, does anyone know if there's a blind-friendly ubuntu already set up? | 03:00 |
|---|
| peepsalot | anyone have a laptop with nvidia card that is capable of suspend? | 03:00 |
|---|
| lbakalinsky | kidugar, what do u need? | 03:00 |
|---|
| SteveScum | i have a gig of ram in this one im on and ubuntu uses none of my swap | 03:00 |
|---|
| nickrud | ohioguy, looking at that, I used the old method of getting a ppp connection, you'll also want to set up your dialup with pppconfig , it can coexist with the networkmanager version | 03:00 |
|---|
| MiLK | should a swap partition be logical yeah? | 03:00 |
|---|
| MasterShrek | nah | 03:00 |
|---|
| bbardlbradd | Elizabeth, I won't be doing much w/ it... Just internet things and typing... basic sh*t | 03:00 |
|---|
| k1dugar | lbakalinsky: I can't create SSH keys via "Seahorse", its missing. I can only create "PGP keys". | 03:00 |
|---|
| MasterShrek | make it primary MiLK | 03:00 |
|---|
| SteveScum | but i have 2 gig swap | 03:00 |
|---|
| MiLK | primary? | 03:00 |
|---|
| MiLK | ok | 03:00 |
|---|
| modoc | jrib: I see gamin and incron in the repos so I'll start there. | 03:01 |
|---|
| MiLK | and the location should be beginning or end? | 03:01 |
|---|
| MasterShrek | MiLK, doesnt matter, i usually put the swap at the end | 03:01 |
|---|
| MiLK | ok cool | 03:01 |
|---|
| andruk | i resumed my comp from hibernate and now the screen just flickers the cursor (nothing else) when i move the mouse | 03:01 |
|---|
| HoboBen | MiLK - end is faster, as it physically spins faster on the disk | 03:01 |
|---|
| peepsalot | what are the open source nvidia drivers called? | 03:01 |
|---|
| nickrud | peepsalot, nv | 03:02 |
|---|
| modoc | jrib: I'm thinking of creating an audacious plugin with this. | 03:02 |
|---|
| MiLK | cool HoboBen | 03:02 |
|---|
| SteveScum | milk, i usialy put swap on the end, because thats the fastest part of the drive | 03:02 |
|---|
| ohioguy | nickrud ,,, I don't dial out from ubuntu , at the moment I'm dialing out with winxp (with int connection shareing ,) then through a linux router to my home network | 03:02 |
|---|
| jrib | modoc: then yeah, you want gamin or inotify | 03:02 |
|---|
| Elizabeth | i can't find anything online why 64bit OSes all crash, but not 32 bit, i know my board/processor support them, can anyone think of a reason | 03:02 |
|---|
| k1dugar | lbakalinsky: I'm running seahorse 2.21.3 | 03:02 |
|---|
| bbardlbradd | Now it's asking me about swap space, it doesn't do this automatically I guess... should I make a new partition specifically for swap? How much should I dedicate to swap, like 2Gb? | 03:02 |
|---|
| kevinkokesh | can anyone tell me how to install firefox 2? i downloaded and extracted the tar gz folder.. do i need to use the tar in synaptic? or use the extracted folder somehow | 03:03 |
|---|
| MiLK | and does the swap partition need a mount point specified? | 03:03 |
|---|
| Elizabeth | could it be my geforce or sound card, like it won't work if they are even installed | 03:03 |
|---|
| SteveScum | milk, no | 03:03 |
|---|
| MasterShrek | bbardlbradd, 1 gig, if thats how much ram you got | 03:03 |
|---|
| MiLK | ok thx steve | 03:03 |
|---|
| IdleOne | bbardlbradd: 2x ram | 03:03 |
|---|
| HoboBen | Elizabeth - apparently it's because a lot of the drivers aren't 64bit. Something like that, I heard | 03:03 |
|---|
| nickrud | kevinkokesh, why not just use the firefox that comes with ubuntu? It gets security updates regularly | 03:03 |
|---|
| MasterShrek | bbardlbradd, and yes, create one for it | 03:03 |
|---|
| jared | I just did a fresh install of Gutsy, and now flash seems to be not working. I installed it through firefox, (flashplugin-nonfree or whatever the package is called) but websites say that I need to install flash, also the missing plugin thing pops up in firefox still. Any suggestions on how to get flash to work would be appreciated | 03:03 |
|---|
| kevinkokesh | nickrud: i am using ubuntu 5.1 and my updater thinger doesn't work?? | 03:03 |
|---|
| andruk | kevinkokesh: i believe the firefox that comes with ubuntu is ff 2 | 03:03 |
|---|
| kevinkokesh | andruk: i have ff 1.0.5 , im on ubuntu 5.1 | 03:04 |
|---|
| nickrud | kevinkokesh, oh, that would be a good reason. The issue of security remains, though. just cd to the firefox folder, and type ./firefox in the terminal | 03:04 |
|---|
| andruk | jared: have you restarted firefox after installing flash? | 03:04 |
|---|
| lbakalinsky | Kidugar, i've sent you a message via a private window | 03:04 |

|---|
| LimCore | I installed GNASH, then kicked it out amd installed real flash player (adobe), firefox always tells me that Flash plugin is missing, then offers me to install it, and then always says that flash-nonfree is already installed and still doesnt play movies (after reboot)? | 03:21 |
|---|
| MasterShrek | LimCore, sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree | 03:21 |
|---|
| LimCore | MasterShrek: ^ | 03:21 |
|---|
| MasterShrek | a reboot wont help you for this | 03:21 |
|---|
| LimCore | MasterShrek: what more is needed then installing flash and flash plugins | 03:21 |
|---|
| MasterShrek | ideally, you only ever need to reboot when your kernel gets upgraded | 03:21 |
|---|
| MasterShrek | LimCore, that should be it i believe, are you using 64 bit ubuntu by chance? | 03:22 |
|---|
| LimCore | MasterShrek: yes | 03:22 |
|---|
| MasterShrek | sudo apt-get install nspluginwrapper | 03:22 |
|---|
| MasterShrek | flash is not supported in 64 bit, so nspluginwrapper uses the 32 bit plugin | 03:23 |

| esoterik | has anyone here had success installing the 1.5.x lighttpd from source on gutsy? | 03:23 |
|---|
| MasterShrek | esoterik, why not just use apache? | 03:24 |
|---|
| LimCore | do I have to use firefox32 ? | 03:24 |
|---|
| esoterik | MasterShrek: looking to play around with some lighttpd modules and use something in a smaller footprint | 03:24 |
|---|
| MasterShrek | LimCore, no, but you can | 03:24 |
|---|
| Bawbatos | any other gui's for iptables besides firestarter. firestarter does not seem to support 3 nics | 03:24 |
|---|
| MasterShrek | esoterik, having problems compiling it or what? | 03:24 |
|---|
| MasterShrek | Bawbatos, i have not heard of one | 03:25 |
|---|
| Bawbatos | uhg. | 03:25 |
|---|
| Bawbatos | 3 nics. it is so basic. | 03:25 |
|---|
| MasterShrek | doesnt mean there isnt one | 03:25 |

| MasterShrek | !firewall | 03:25 |
|---|
| ubotu | Ubuntu, like any other linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'iptables' command (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo), or GUI applications such as Firestarter (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE). | 03:25 |
|---|
| esoterik | the compile process seems to go fine (new to it though, no major errors) but adding it to runit gives me errors, so I'm having trouble getting it to start | 03:25 |
|---|
| LimCore | I have nspluginwrapper, and flash adobe packages... what more? | 03:25 |
|---|
| lbakalinsky | i could of sworn i logged in | 03:25 |
|---|
| Bawbatos | thanks. | 03:25 |
|---|
| macandcheese | hello all | 03:25 |
|---|
| MasterShrek | esoterik, add a command to start it to /etc/rc.local | 03:25 |
|---|
| Bawbatos | i hate iptables - i am moving a box from openbsd cuzi need some hardware support that is not there and iptables is driving me nuts | 03:25 |

|---|
| macandcheese | does anyone know how I can get my asus eax1600 silent video card to work fully with ubuntu? where can i find a working module | 03:28 |
|---|
| drgeb | MasterShrek only strangeness I see is "(WW) NVIDIA(GPU-0): Unable to read EDID for display device CRT-1" | 03:28 |
|---|
| LimCore | MasterShrek: yes. reinstalled flashplugin-nonfree reinstalled the wrapper, restarted ffox, still doesnt work | 03:28 |
|---|
| MasterShrek | drgeb, but thats not whats causing the error i dont think, it would be (EE) not (WW) | 03:29 |

| tehdave | So, I got my bluetooth dongle to work (read: power surge in the house, computer reset, dongle magically works), and I was wondering if anyone knows another place to get the WMD driver for the Wiimote, as www.forthewiin.org seems to be down | 03:29 |
|---|
| groovy2shoes | hey, guys | 03:29 |
|---|
| yan_ | when I boot I still see some messages rolling through the screen before the ubuntu splash screen comes up, how can I get rid of these messages? | 03:29 |
|---|
| groovy2shoes | I'm having trouble installing drivers for nvidia on Feisty | 03:30 |
|---|
| macandcheese | does anyone know how I can get my asus eax1600 silent video card to work fully with ubuntu? where can i find a working module? can anyone help me out? | 03:30 |
|---|
| drgeb | Mastershrek for some reason I feel the info logges on CTRL-ALT Terminals is not captured inside my dmesg or messages or syslog files | 03:30 |
|---|
| Burlynn | tehdave: you can use the wiimote on your pc? | 03:30 |
|---|
| esoterik | groovy: have you tried envy? | 03:30 |
|---|
| MasterShrek | LimCore, not really sure, i havent set up nspluginwrapper in awhile, and i dont really remember how to | 03:30 |
|---|
| marx2k | Has anyone seen the following message when running smbtree: "Server requested plaintext password but 'client use plaintext auth' is disabled" | 03:30 |
|---|
| groovy2shoes | esoterik, I'm just trying this out... my friend gave me a CD | 03:30 |
|---|
| MasterShrek | drgeb, that info should be logged somewhere though | 03:30 |
|---|
| tehdave | Burlynn: The Wiimote is a bluetooth device, so yes, yes you can XD | 03:30 |
|---|
| bbardlbradd | How do I set Vista as first on GRUB list??? | 03:31 |
|---|
| earlmred | okay, i'm using the rescue cd to boot off of the install, my screen goes blank, there's hard drive activity, and i can't seem to change out to a different vtty? ideas? i have an 8800gts ... | 03:31 |
|---|
| Burlynn | tehdave: for your mouse huh? thats crazy. gotta look into that | 03:31 |
|---|
| LimCore | bbardlbradd: chainloader | 03:31 |
|---|
| DeMoNSeEd | we hope you like it groovy2shoes | 03:31 |
|---|
| MasterShrek | bbardlbradd, move the vista section to the top of the list in /boot/grub/menu.list | 03:31 |
|---|
| bbardlbradd | LimCore, what's that? | 03:31 |
|---|
| nickrud | what version of fglrx does gutsy come with? | 03:31 |
|---|
| esoterik | groovy: either download the new ubuntu live cd (gutsy) as nvidia worked flawlessly out of the box, otherwise google 'envy ubuntu' and download the script. it will auto setup the drivers for you in feisty, but requires an installed system i believe. | 03:31 |
|---|
| bbardlbradd | MasterShrek, that's it? | 03:31 |
|---|
| marx2k | !info fglrx | 03:32 |
|---|
| ubotu | Package fglrx does not exist in gutsy | 03:32 |
|---|
| groovy2shoes | thanks, esoterik :) | 03:32 |
|---|
| MasterShrek | bbardlbradd, yeap, dont move it to the top of the file though, just put it above the first ubuntu entry | 03:32 |
|---|
| tehdave | Burlynn: there's a few different things I've found, but what seems to make the most sense for me is something called WMD, which is actually a python script...but noone seems to have a mirror of it, just the main site (which is down) | 03:32 |
|---|
| MasterShrek | tehdave, see if you can get to it using google's cache feature, they may have mirrors on there | 03:32 |
|---|
| bbardlbradd | MasterShrek, ok... if I'll look into it in a min. If it's not apparent, I'll ask more. | 03:32 |
|---|
| earlmred | okay, i'm using the rescue cd to boot off of the install, my screen goes blank, there's hard drive activity, and i can't seem to change out to a different vtty? ideas? i have an 8800gts ... | 03:33 |
|---|
| drgeb | Mastershrek is there away to force all messages to tty's to be pushed into a file ? | 03:33 |
|---|
| floydian | anybody to help me please? | 03:33 |
|---|
| MasterShrek | drgeb, maybe, i wouldnt know how to though | 03:33 |
|---|
| esoterik | floydian: whats up? | 03:33 |
|---|
| macandcheese | does anyone know how I can get my asus eax1600 silent video card to work fully with ubuntu? where can i find a working module? can anyone help me out? | 03:33 |

|---|
| macandcheese | basically i can't get it to full res without freezing | 03:34 |
|---|
| esoterik | macandcheese: what type of card is it, ati or nvidia | 03:34 |
|---|
| tehdave | MasterShrek: Is there a way to go directly to a cached page through google? it's not coming up with the site when I search for the URL directly -_- | 03:34 |
|---|
| macandcheese | ati | 03:34 |
|---|
| Bawbatos | anyway to stop dhcp from changed the resolv.conf | 03:35 |
|---|
| esoterik | macandcheese: and your running gutsy? | 03:35 |
|---|
| intelikey | drgeb cat /dev/tty<#> > filename maybe unless you mean all tty's | 03:35 |
|---|
| LimCore | sudoers seems like written by nerds for nerds, is there any gui to it? | 03:35 |
|---|
| drgeb | MasterShrek cause I can clearly see that when I grep for certain statements on tty's that they are not to be found in any files located inside /var/log | 03:35 |
|---|
| macandcheese | yes | 03:35 |
|---|
| macandcheese | ubuntu 7.10 | 03:35 |
|---|
| Cpudan80 | Hrm | 03:35 |
|---|
| macogw | LimCore: system > admin > users and groups | 03:35 |
|---|
| macandcheese | it works right out of the install, but i can't gewt full res or 3d full speed | 03:35 |
|---|
| Cpudan80 | I still can't get any movies to play -- after following the instructions at !divx | 03:36 |
|---|
| macogw | LimCore: just add them to the sudoers group | 03:36 |
|---|
| Cpudan80 | I've tried VLC & Totem... but no luck | 03:36 |
|---|
| Cpudan80 | Lots of sound, no picture | 03:36 |
|---|
| macandcheese | and for some reason i can't get any desktop enhancements at all | 03:36 |
|---|
| nickrud | macogw, you mean the admin group? | 03:36 |
|---|
| LimCore | macogw: NO | 03:36 |
|---|
| Cpudan80 | DivX MS-MPEG-4 Version 3 is what the file info says | 03:36 |
|---|
| TheFishy | whats a good browser for kde mint | 03:36 |
|---|
| LimCore | macogw: I want the user to be needed to authenticate using root password, not own password | 03:36 |
|---|
| intelikey | LimCore sudoers can be simple. username ALL=(ALL) :commands ,you want ,user to be able to run ,here | 03:36 |
|---|
| earlmred | how do i install grub on the mbr? | 03:36 |
|---|
| macogw | LimCore: there is no root password | 03:36 |
|---|
| floydian | i've got problem with wine and probably combiz as well.. i'm noob in linux, but everytime i lunch WoW trough Wine it freez the game every 2-15 minutes random. Any sugestions? | 03:36 |
|---|
| TheFishy | i dont want anything firefox, that stuff is lame... | 03:36 |
|---|
| macogw | LimCore: the root account is locked | 03:37 |
|---|
| HoboBen | Cpudan80 - if you haven't tried this already, look for packages like "restricted extras" inside Applications > Add/Remove | 03:37 |
|---|
| Cpudan80 | If anyone has any suggestions... I'd appreciate it | 03:37 |
|---|
| LimCore | macogw: there is, I de-noobified ubuntu by sudo passwd root | 03:37 |
|---|
| drgeb | does ubuntu have concept of bootlogd for gutsy version that is | 03:37 |
|---|
| Cpudan80 | HoboBen: Got that one | 03:37 |
|---|
| macogw | LimCore: you'd want the person to not be a sudoer then and just let them type su | 03:37 |
|---|
| nickrud | LimCore, ah, that's not something sudo can do, it always auths against user password | 03:37 |
|---|
| LimCore | nickrud: huh? I want simply to allow user to type sudo foo and then type ROOT password (not user password) | 03:37 |
|---|
| * nickrud is hurt, he's used sudo since 2002 | 03:37 |
| bbardlbradd | Does anyone know if the Belkin Wifi cards work in 7.10? It's detecting networks and asking for keys, but it's not connecting... is this common? | 03:38 |
|---|
| macogw | LimCore: thats not what sudo is for | 03:38 |
|---|
| nickrud | LimCore, precisely, you can't | 03:38 |
|---|
| LimCore | this sucks | 03:38 |
|---|
| macogw | LimCore: you'd have to have them just use su | 03:38 |
|---|
| macogw | LimCore: thats how sudo always works | 03:38 |
|---|
| LimCore | was sudo written by microsoft or what | 03:38 |
|---|
| CaRtz | just installed ubuntu the other day and im wondering why we have to update the kernel? | 03:38 |
|---|
| macogw | LimCore: no it was written in 1985 | 03:38 |
|---|
| jrib | LimCore: the sudoers man page explains the option you want, but I'm really curious as to what the purpose is? | 03:38 |
|---|
| HoboBen | Cpudan80, sorry then - I can't remember what to do. It's ages since I configured my other distros with multimedia stuff | 03:38 |
|---|
| LimCore | by nerds? | 03:38 |
|---|
| intelikey | LimCore sudo doesn't use root password unless root is the one calling and that would be redundant | 03:38 |
|---|
| Cpudan80 | It's ok | 03:38 |
|---|
| macogw | CaRtz: adds & updates drivers and gets rid of security vulnerabilities | 03:38 |
|---|
| Cpudan80 | maybe someone else has an idea? | 03:38 |
|---|
| nickrud | LimCore, sudo is designed to give users some root privs, if someone knows the root password, why use sudo? | 03:38 |
|---|
| macandcheese | ??? | 03:39 |
|---|
| CaRtz | macogw: so that's why. thank you. | 03:39 |
|---|
| LimCore | the problem is, that entire ubuntu is using gsudo and shit, and I need this to ask root password, since asking user password is horribly insercure | 03:39 |
|---|
| macogw | LimCore: why would you want to give them the root password anyway? | 03:39 |
|---|
| LimCore | it's so insecure like vista | 03:39 |
|---|
| macogw | LimCore: no. opposite | 03:39 |
|---|
| LimCore | macogw: nope | 03:39 |
|---|
| macogw | LimCore: the reason we lock root is so that someone can't know "root" then brute force the password. they need to know the usrname too | 03:39 |
|---|
| jrib | LimCore: only users in the "admin" group can use sudo | 03:39 |
|---|
| elband | balikpapan | 03:39 |
|---|
| MasterShrek | LimCore, only users that are allowed to use sudo are allowed to do that | 03:39 |
|---|
| macogw | LimCore: then add on that you can see WHICH user did the stupid thing that broke it | 03:40 |
|---|
| nickrud | LimCore, so don't add a user to the admin group, voila, no gksudo | 03:40 |
|---|
| intelikey | LimCore giving users the root password is just as insecure | 03:40 |
|---|
| LimCore | macogw: user X clicked FireFox install flash plugin; now what is more secure: a) he have to input own password and then he can change system -or- b) he have to call admin to have root password | 03:40 |
|---|
| bbardlbradd | Does anyone know if the Belkin Wifi cards work in 7.10? It's detecting networks and asking for keys, but it's not connecting... is this common? | 03:40 |
|---|
| macogw | LimCore: and that you dont have to find some way to make a user forget the root password | 03:40 |
|---|
| elband | oioi | 03:40 |
|---|
| elband | balikpapan | 03:40 |
|---|
| nickrud | LimCore, see my last, that's how you secure sudo. | 03:40 |
|---|
| bbardlbradd | elband, me? | 03:40 |
|---|
| kappakappuccino | holy cow! pidgin is using 54k in memory right now | 03:41 |
|---|
| earlmred | kappakappuccino what a hog. | 03:41 |
|---|
| kappakappuccino | this can't be right | 03:41 |
|---|
| macogw | LimCore: to revoke a users sudo rights does not require that things change for anyone else. if you want someone to not be able to touch the system after they know the root password, you either need to make them forget the password (yeah, thatll work) or change it and make everyone else go memorize yet another password | 03:41 |
|---|
| MasterShrek | 54k? why wouldnt that be right? | 03:41 |
|---|
| LimCore | nickrud: but if user clicks firefox install p;ugin (that runs gksudo) and he calls admin, and admin inputs password for him, then its what I need also | 03:41 |
|---|
| drafael | bbardlbradd: this laptop has a belkin in it right now | 03:41 |
|---|
| MasterShrek | doesnt sound too out of the ordinary, 64m maybe | 03:41 |
|---|
| Khisanth | the root pass is all or nothing, sudo allows you to go somewhere in between | 03:41 |
|---|
| LimCore | macogw: or admin type it for user | 03:41 |
|---|
| DarkMageZ | hi, i'm missing my firefox menu entry in gnome. the .desktop file is still in /usr/share/applications/ . any ideas? | 03:41 |
|---|
| nickrud | LimCore, ah, well, I'd expect the admin to set up the machine ahead of time | 03:42 |
|---|
| kappakappuccino | well firefox is using 83,xxx k right now | 03:42 |
|---|
| bbardlbradd | drafael, thanks for the reply, I got it working. Sorry for the waste. | 03:42 |
|---|
| kappakappuccino | and pidgin close 2nd at 54,xxx k | 03:42 |
|---|
| LimCore | nickrud: its not my |
