| Yabber | ok chaps, I think this might be a bug. I am testing various linux distros open-iscsi initiator to an iscsi target, if I install the open-iscsi package in gutsy, all works, but even though I discover a target it never connects to the target. On further investigation I have noticed that even if I delete the iscsi.conf file that ubuntu is meant to be using it makes no difference and ubuntu does not even complain the file is missing... | 00:22 |
| Yabber | ..IE I think there is a init.d script error.......not using any of the settings in iscsi.conf....any ideas? | 00:22 |
| erUSUL | |DuReX|: sorry i dunno what may be wrong.... | 00:22 |
| lockd | Yabber: I had a minor problem like that, totally ignoring the apt.conf | 00:23 |
| kitche | Yabber: the iscsi.conf might be there for settings but doesn't mean it needs to be used but last tiem I knew iscsi is tricky on *nix anyways but would file a report anyhow | 00:23 |
| NoirFluo | where do I activate Compize Fusion ? | 00:23 |
| lockd | NoirFluo: install compiz-fusion | 00:23 |
| NoirFluo | it is installed | 00:24 |
| |DuReX| | erUSUL: it seems like it doesn't create uuid symlinks for dmraid devices | 00:24 |
| tehcheez | @NoirFluo: compiz --replace ccsm | 00:24 |
| kitche | NoirFluo: it's enabled by default actually if you use a restricted driver | 00:24 |
| NoirFluo | TehBrandon, thanks | 00:24 |
| lockd | NoirFluo: also add compiz to your session or default session if you don't use a restricted driver | 00:25 |
| lockd | btw, is there a way to have 2 separate xubuntu menus? One is in a chroot jail of another distro, but my home directory is bound into the chroot | 00:25 |
| rkj | Ace2016: I've been through all that and have got it to be pretty close, I should think - have Device, Monitor, screen and serverLayout sections defined in xorg.conf - managed to crash X several times but it's not crashing now - but still not working either | 00:26 |
| lockd | everything besides that is working perfectly | 00:26 |
| Ace2016 | chroot gail? that sounds interesting, how do i do that? | 00:26 |
| liquidengineer | hello | 00:26 |
| Ace2016 | Hi | 00:26 |
| RazzoRz | hey folks | 00:27 |
| liquidengineer | When will the livecd installer ask if I would like to install grub? I wanna do this right this time. :D | 00:27 |
| kitche | Ace2016: gail do you mean jail chroot is what you want there is no such thing really as jails in Linux | 00:27 |
| Ace2016 | yea jail | 00:27 |
| Yabber | kitche, thanks, when you say tricky on *nix do you mean buggy | 00:28 |
| lockd | what's missing in Linux jails? | 00:28 |
| tehcheez | Windows :) | 00:28 |
| Ace2016 | prison guards | 00:28 |
| kitche | Yabber: yeah needs a lot of work | 00:28 |
| kitche | lockd: it's not the same as a jail | 00:28 |
| RazzoRz | can someone explain to me how one uploads a video of my desktop ( usieng ) sessions recorder.... it records it as a OGG file format... can one conver that to a avi or mgeg??? | 00:28 |
| Ace2016 | i mean you don't have any outbout firewalls to block certain apps | 00:28 |
| mige0 | asdff | 00:28 |
| lockd | kitche: so in BSD you don't have to forward the /dev and all that/ | 00:28 |
| __mikem | Linux Jails are where microsoft sends their employees if they are caught running linux | 00:28 |
| __mikem | :) | 00:28 |
| kitche | lockd: you can mount /dev and other things inside the jail | 00:29 |
| lockd | kitche: or "bind" | 00:29 |
| tehcheez | Windows should be in Linux gaol :) | 00:29 |
| Ktravaglini | Hey, my friend is a rather new linux user, hence ubuntu, and is having trouble with playing .wmv files, I tried to get him tell me his hardware configurations but it didnt work...Any ideas? | 00:29 |
| lordmorgoth | hey guys. my totem (even mplayer) are running videos with nothing to display, only the sound. any idea how to solve this ? | 00:29 |
| Ace2016 | lockd: if you don't have /dev how do you mount stuff? or do dd if=/dev/ ... | 00:29 |
| user5435 | ktravaglini, try vlc | 00:29 |
| user5435 | vlc plays almost anything | 00:29 |
| tehcheez | lordmorgoth, do you have the required codecs? | 00:29 |
| user5435 | sudo apt-get install vlc | 00:30 |
| Ktravaglini | Thanks. | 00:30 |
| Jack_Sparrow | !wmv > Ktravaglini | 00:30 |
| BehiiMehii | user5435 that didn't work | 00:30 |
| nickrud | Ktravaglini, and remember that if the wmv is drm protected, it won't play on ubuntu | 00:30 |
| kitche | lockd: but a jail is really a whole another system why a chroot is a "half" system since it doesn't have it's own ip address | 00:30 |
| user5435 | what didn't work? | 00:30 |
| kitche | lockd: among some other things | 00:30 |
| Ktravaglini | Thanks Jack_Sparrow?!? | 00:30 |
| Jack_Sparrow | np | 00:30 |

| kitche | Yabber: it is but I just know only professionals that build systems themselves got it working really haven't seen a user get one up and running so far | 00:32 |
| lordmorgoth | anyone ??? | 00:32 |
| bruenig | LeviathNL, are you talking about scripting? | 00:32 |
| kitche | Yabber: might want to do some searches though | 00:32 |
| nickrud | lordmorgoth, you running compiz? | 00:32 |
| bobgill | if I want to remote desktop to a friend's windows xp box and he uses a router, can I just enter his IP to get in ? | 00:32 |
| lordmorgoth | nickrud, yeah i though of it, know how to fix it ? | 00:32 |
| rkj | I need help configuring a second monitor - can somebody help? | 00:33 |
| Yabber | kitche, I am not building the target, I am using a san/nas for that, just trying to get a client initiator to connect to the target, its just not connecting under ubuntu..under centos, and redhat works like a dream! | 00:33 |
| nickrud | lordmorgoth, the xv output doesn't work well with compiz, I've been able to get x11 to work. | 00:33 |
| tehcheez | bobgill: Are you connected to that router? | 00:33 |
| LeviathNL | bruenig, I want to make a symlink to a program, but if I do ln /path/to/program and execute the link i get errors in the program i can't find files (using relative paths it seems) | 00:34 |
| bobgill | tehcheez: NO | 00:34 |
| bobgill | oh sorry caps | 00:34 |
| bobgill | lol | 00:34 |
| RazzoRz | can someone explain to me how one uploads a video of my desktop ( usieng ) sessions recorder.... it records it as a OGG file format... can one conver that to a avi or mgeg??? | 00:34 |
| bobgill | mp o | 00:34 |
| bobgill | no i'm not | 00:34 |
| lordmorgoth | nickrud, xv ? i didn't understood what u mean | 00:34 |
| nn-away | Ok I fixed that problem; Can some one please help me with the content now; Original Message : Im trying to make linuxmain.net into linux's main sosial networking site. But I need some help whith the content that will eventually attaract the users that will make it run. Im really Trying to get it running quick as possable but there are a trillian settings I need a assistants to help and point out what needs fixing and add content like pages howto links to | 00:34 |
| bruenig | LeviathNL, you are trying to link what to what | 00:34 |
| tehcheez | bobgill: Then no. | 00:34 |
| nickrud | lordmorgoth, there're different outputs that display on the screen. Try mplayer -vo x11 <file> , see if you can see it | 00:35 |
| bobgill | tehcheez: no possible way ? | 00:35 |
| LeviathNL | a game called teewars i copied to /usr/local/share/games/teewars, now I want to make a link in /usr/local/bin | 00:35 |
| TheEagle | should i learn how to program before learning any languages, or should i just get stuck in learning a language? | 00:35 |
| bruenig | LeviathNL, ln -s /usr/local/share/games/teewars /usr/local/bin/teewars | 00:35 |
| nickrud | TheEagle, unless you learn a language, you won't learn to code. pseudocode only gets you so far | 00:36 |
| tinin | Can I download a 4.7GB torrent file to a FAT32 partition? | 00:36 |
| nickrud | tinin, no | 00:36 |
| TheEagle | so what should i learn first in the way of a programming language? | 00:37 |
| tinin | any solution to this? | 00:37 |
| dcesiel_ | Hey guys I'm having a problem connecting to internet | 00:37 |
| batis610 | Need to encode my dvd(contains serie episodes) to an avi with multiple audio tracks and subtitles..... how? | 00:37 |
| nickrud | TheEagle, haven't we had this conversation before :) | 00:37 |
| bruenig | TheEagle, learn bash, that will get you through simple concepts like if, while, for, switch/case, etc. | 00:37 |
| heatmzzr | anyone know how to get my HP x4270 to work with ubuntu? | 00:37 |
| dcesiel_ | Could someone help me out I'm not sure what to do I got a new router and now nothing works | 00:37 |
| dcesiel_ | I just can't connect | 00:37 |
| nickrud | TheEagle, bash would be good, you'd also get stuff you can use right now | 00:37 |
| TheEagle | yes, nickrud, i ask every day to see if the same reccomendations appear - so don't repeat yours at the moment | 00:37 |
| lordmorgoth | nickrud, great it works from the comand line, anyway to fix it permanently ? | 00:37 |
| * nickrud feels hurt | 00:37 |
| bruenig | getting stuff you can use has always been necessary to keep me interested | 00:37 |
| tehcheez | bobgill: Unless he/she/it has forwarded ports, no. | 00:38 |
| LeviathNL | bruenig, same error, teewars is an executable in a folder in .../games/, and it uses files from that folder which it can't reach it seems | 00:38 |
| nickrud | lordmorgoth, add vo=x11 to ~/.mplayer/config . The problem with x11 is it won't scale up. | 00:38 |
| LeviathNL | [4776e815][game/png]: failed to open file. filename='data/big_font.png' etc | 00:38 |
| bruenig | learning how to conver fahrenheit to celsius in every language only gets you so far before you get disinterested | 00:38 |
| TheEagle | bash is strictly linux isnt it? | 00:38 |
| bruenig | TheEagle, no | 00:38 |
| TheEagle | well | 00:38 |
| Jack_Sparrow | TheEagle: This isnt the place to ask that question in the first place . .. Much less every day | 00:38 |
| lordmorgoth | nickrud, thanks m8 ! | 00:38 |
| lockd | TheEagle: Ruby is a good introductory programming language | 00:39 |
| bruenig | LeviathNL, it should be able to, can you execute the binary directly | 00:39 |
| nickrud | lordmorgoth, np | 00:39 |
| * TheEagle is p*ssed off with such strict rules in irc channels | 00:39 |
| Jack_Sparrow | TheEagle: Enough with the comment messages too.. If you dont like the rules there are other channels | 00:40 |
| dcesiel_ | Hey guys I'm connected through ethernet I got a new router and now I can no longer get online, but the router says I am connected. Does anyone know what could be going wrong? | 00:40 |
| LeviathNL | bruenig, if I cd to /usr/local/share/games/teewars and do ./teewars it runs correctly | 00:40 |
| matkix | Does anyone here know of any remote os installation / backup tool? I've found one, but its just in a really early beta stage. Anyone know of a good system to do this? | 00:40 |
| * TheEagle doesn't see what harm it does posting a message in the wrong place | 00:40 |
| Lagginator | when i turn on my computer, it goes to some grub command line thing | 00:40 |
| lockd | matkix: rsync | 00:41 |
| matkix | Rsync can install an os? | 00:41 |
| nickrud | Lagginator, that's the boot loader, it loads the various os's you have on your machine | 00:41 |
| bruenig | LeviathNL, oh I see, well what I would do is write a short bash script and put it in /usr/local/bin, have that bash script cd into the directory and run ./teewars | 00:41 |
| Jack_Sparrow | TheEagle: With 1200 uses here for one purpose. We do not need your comments and interruptions | 00:41 |
| lockd | matkix: it can back it up | 00:42 |
| Lagginator | nickrud, I don't know what to do, it prompts for a command | 00:42 |
| nickrud | Lagginator, oh. You don't get a list of possible os's to load in a box? | 00:42 |
| Lagginator | nickrud: no, it just says something abotu minimal bash liek editing supported and grub> | 00:42 |
| * TheEagle thinks that it is just the pirate who doesn't need my comments and interruptions as it is just him that is complaining (and there is 1162 users not 1200 hehe ) | 00:43 |
| nickrud | Lagginator, you need a grub expert. Ask for help, saying your install is dropping you to the grub command line, and doesn't boot ubunut | 00:43 |
| Lagginator | cool, I screwed up my comp! | 00:43 |
| user5435 | awesome | 00:43 |
| * nickrud thinks Jack_Sparrow is being kind to TheEagle | 00:43 |
| * TheEagle is going to shut up before i do something stupid and start a massive argument | 00:44 |

| reaper-x | ty jordan_u... do I type that in terminal? | 01:02 |

| erUSUL | michael__: sudo apt-get install mplayer | 01:05 |
| ChrisULM | michael__ you could compile it | 01:05 |
| nickrud | santos_luis, I agree. But if I used that, I'd have to spend a couple thousand on windows software instead of using the business's site licenses. Not likely | 01:05 |

I find using rdesktop distracting to use in a window, and would like it full screen. my problem is this: toggle full screen hotkey (ctl + alt + enter) is already used by VMware player, so I cannot toggle rdesktop. In addition, rdestop in fullscreen does not contain itself to one gnome workspace, so I have no way to exit rdesko | 01:17 |

| jvargas | but the modules is not installed | 01:24 |
| wols_ | justin_: ubotu just gave you some help. read the url | 01:24 |
| jvargas | although apt-get install libapache2-mod-mono works | 01:24 |
| justin_ | ok thanks | 01:24 |
| wols_ | huff3r: and learn. it's good to know | 01:24 |
| lukasz | You guys should update add/remove cause I installed Amarok or Exaile from there and it crashed | 01:25 |
| jvargas | there is no mod_mono module in /etc/apache2/mods-available | 01:25 |
| wy | Anyone has encountered sound problem with snd_hda_intel? My AD198x doesn't work | 01:25 |
| lukasz | I downloaded the new version of Exaile and it is fine :) | 01:25 |
| wols_ | jvargas: sudo a2enmod <modulename> then restart apache2 | 01:25 |
| lukasz | Everything else works fine except my notebook webcam waaaaaaaa | 01:26 |
| jvargas | wols_: there is no mono in a2enmod listing of modules | 01:26 |
| wols_ | jvargas: dpkg -L the nstalled package then | 01:26 |
| aeGIs | http://youtube.com/watch?v=2T-iJKwskH4 | 01:26 |
| jvargas | it removed it by accident, and then tried reinstalling, and now it does not install it | 01:26 |
| wols_ | jvargas: check what files/modules there are in there | 01:26 |
| lukasz | I did gstreamer-properties and didn't help waaaaaaaa | 01:26 |
| wols_ | jvargas: purge it and reinstall is the other option | 01:27 |
| jvargas | ok | 01:27 |
| osmosis | how do I get ride of the apache2: apr_sockaddr_info_get() failed when I do sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 restart | 01:27 |
| soulrider | !adeptfix | 01:27 |

| jvargas | wols_: i just tried, uninstalled the module, but dpkg -L still says the module is installed in /etc/apache2/mods-available/, which is not true | 01:29 |
| lukasz | I got alsa mixer :) | 01:29 |
| jvargas | wols_: is there a way to force the removal of those file entries? | 01:29 |
| Lagginator | WHAT THE **** IS WRONG WITH UBUNTU? | 01:29 |
| Lagginator | it's inconsistant for me | 01:29 |
| Lagginator | it seems to only do things after I've tried a few times... | 01:30 |
| lukasz | Ubuntu works for me :p | 01:30 |
| tehcheez | UNIX is hard. Let's go shopping! | 01:30 |
| wols_ | jvargas: dpkg -l |grep mono. pastebin it | 01:30 |
| lukasz | I got aac+ working | 01:30 |
| bio | Lagginator, as opposed to what? | 01:31 |
| Lagginator | ;_; Ubuntu decided it wouldn't show the boot menu the first time i restarted it, so i started messign around with stuff | 01:31 |
| lukasz | get new version of exaile | 01:31 |
| lukasz | There are older version of add/remove which do not work :( | 01:31 |
| Lagginator | then when i messed around with stuff, I somehow made it boot to the grub command line | 01:31 |
| * bio downloading the new version of sage | 01:31 |
| reaper-x | could someone please tell me how to install linux-restricted-modules-2.6.22-14-server on gutsy 7.10 server... it isn't in snyaptic list even with the restricted repositories selected | 01:31 |

| uzerzero | !John | 01:32 |

| reaper-x | could someone please tell me how to install linux-restricted-modules-2.6.22-14-server on gutsy 7.10 server... it isn't in snyaptic list even with the restricted repositories selected | 01:33 |
| arve | hello, anybody her running 7.10? | 01:33 |
| lukasz | I am | 01:33 |
| arve | on a laptop? | 01:33 |
| wols_ | jvargas: I told you to purge them. why didn't you do it? | 01:33 |
| lukasz | yeah | 01:33 |
| lukasz | USB | 01:33 |
| arve | okei, have u got hibernation up and working? | 01:33 |
| lukasz | no sry arve :( | 01:33 |
| bio | ∗± ∗ κlpt θ | 01:33 |

| HighLife | ok guys I can connect to the internet through my vmware server but not through the ubuntu host. Can anyone help me? | 01:34 |
| Lagginator | wols: the commands I found worked, but not the first time I tried them. | 01:34 |
| wols_ | HighLife: what kind of internet connection? | 01:34 |
| jvargas | wols_: ok, brb | 01:34 |
| HighLife | ethernet | 01:34 |
| arve | neither suspend nor hibernate works here :-( | 01:34 |
| HighLife | eth0 | 01:34 |
| wols_ | Lagginator: you can complain a lot of things in linux but not that it's not consistent | 01:34 |
| lukasz | I tried hibernating arve and then it wouldn't start up maybe its cause of that it is External USB | 01:34 |
| wols_ | HighLife: what network chip? dsl, pppoe, dhcp to a router? what? | 01:34 |
| reaper-x | could someone please tell me how to install linux-restricted-modules-2.6.22-14-server on gutsy 7.10 server... it isn't in snyaptic list even with the restricted repositories selected | 01:35 |
| lukasz | thats why harbernation won't work since on Ubuntu is on USB | 01:35 |
| arve | same thing happened to me, I googled some newgroups and found that many others out there have the same problem, but noone have the solution to it.. | 01:35 |
| jvargas | wols_: purged and reinstalled, thanks a lot wols_ | 01:35 |
| wols_ | reaper-x: pastebin your sources.list | 01:35 |
| wols_ | jvargas: does it work now? | 01:35 |
| lukasz | hmm wierd problem arve isn't it hehe :p | 01:35 |
| arve | If I do suspend, the screen turns black and calms down, but I can't get it back again.. | 01:35 |
| HighLife | wols_: its integrated on my biostar board | 01:35 |
| arve | same thing with hibernation | 01:35 |
| lukasz | same here arve :p | 01:35 |
| wols_ | HighLife: that's not answer to my question | 01:35 |
| HighLife | I was using roaming mode, whatever that is | 01:35 |
| arve | yes lukasz, | 01:35 |
| jvargas | wols_: yep, it seems the apt-get's purge does not purge as 'dpkg --purge'... | 01:36 |
| arve | but it's quite essential for a laptop to have such things | 01:36 |
| HighLife | wols_ does that help? | 01:36 |
| lukasz | Yes it is arve | 01:36 |
| wols_ | jvargas: it does | 01:36 |
| HighLife | I guess I'm not ttly sure | 01:36 |
| arve | hopefully the ubuntu guys can get it working | 01:36 |
| reaper-x | !pastebin | 01:36 |
| larson9999 | i'll treat hibernation like i used to treat midi joysticks: wait until usb models come out:) | 01:36 |
| lukasz | Yup hopefully :) | 01:36 |
| EADG_ | Evening all. What file would I edit to NOT have GDM start at boot in 7.10? I want to stay in CLI. | 01:36 |
| wols_ | HighLife: lcpci in pastebin. and answer the other questions too | 01:36 |
| reaper-x | ! pastebin | 01:36 |
| 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) | 01:36 |
| arve | otherwise it's a great system | 01:36 |

| ardchoille | c0nka16: Help with what? | 01:37 |
| wols_ | ardchoille: with teaching how to ask proper questions on irc obviously | 01:37 |
| arve | I've been trying mandrake and mandriva for 5-6 years, and everytime it screws up my harddrive. but Ubuntu seems rock steady | 01:37 |
| wols_ | ardchoille: lesson one: never ask if someone can help you, just state your problem instead | 01:37 |
| c0nka16 | i installed ubuntu without any problems and when it reboots the loading screen comes up then it just goes on to a black screen ?¿ | 01:37 |

| lukasz | yeah Mandriva and mandrake are bad they screw it up for me 2 | 01:38 |
| HighLife | command not found | 01:38 |

| reaper-x | wols: how do I copy & paste synaptic list? | 01:38 |

| wols_ | reaper-x: depends where you see it | 01:38 |
| c0nka16 | ?? | 01:39 |
| ardchoille | pteague: Part of the nvidia driver package | 01:39 |
| pteague | ardchoille> ah, ok... maybe it just didn't pick up on the fact that i had dual monitors on my first install | 01:39 |
| wols_ | c0nka16: the bootmenu comes and after that it'S just blank? | 01:39 |
| arve | btw, do u know if shockwave will be released for ubuntu soon? | 01:39 |
| c0nka16 | yeah | 01:39 |
| c0nka16 | it comes up loading screen and then just blank | 01:39 |
| reaper-x | wols: when I open synaptic I see it but how to I highlite all the choices to copy & paste? | 01:39 |
| wols_ | c0nka16: you will need to edit your menu.lst to see where it hangs. remove the "quiet" in the "kernel" lines | 01:40 |
| pteague | ardchoille> do you know if it's supposed to add an item to the menu? | 01:40 |
| c0nka16 | ok ill have a look | 01:40 |
| wols_ | reaper-x: left mouse button and drag to select stuff | 01:40 |
| lukasz | http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=4037620#post4037620 | 01:40 |

| ardchoille | pteague: And I only installed nvidia-glx | 01:41 |
| MikeH | Apparently xscreensaver is the default screensaver under ubuntu? yet my config is for gnome-screensaver? How is xscreensaver configurable | 01:41 |

| lukasz | First follow instructions from Ubuntu then use alternate graphics instasller | 01:45 |

| tritium | v507: for alt-tab to work, you have to have at least 2 windows open | 01:55 |
| Leggazoid | dfgas: If you already have windows, try xubuntu live cd. If you like what it does you can get it to dual boot windows if you have enough free hard drive space. | 01:55 |
| lukasz | Linux is the best :) | 01:55 |
| Brady | yeah | 01:55 |

| RedHeron | Okay... just had an interesting issue... and a BIG puzzle. Computer locked, as in the mouse no longer moved, and there was no sign of disk activity, and this continued for 2 minutes. There was no core dump. There was a data file that was corrupted beyond repair, and now I'm working on trying to trace down what happened (preferably without actually locking the system again). | 02:20 |
| RedHeron | Any help? | 02:20 |

| RealGateHead | has anyone successfully upgraded from 7.04 to 7.10? If so can you help me? | 02:47 |
| Administrator_ | dorthnagoth, you can download easyrecovery | 02:47 |
| IndyGunFreak | RealGateHead: state your problem | 02:47 |
| ketrox | RealGateHead, what's the issue ? | 02:47 |
| TigranG | ketrox: I said before that I loaded a keyboard profile that was already there - but its a different model than my computer (same manufacture tho) | 02:47 |
| relic | nuGzthk: start synaptic package manager | 02:47 |
| nuGzthk | k | 02:47 |
| demonspork | nuGzthk, yes you will have the nvidia-settings | 02:47 |
| ramza3 | RealGateHead, it took me one click. Go to upgrade manager and select upgrade distor | 02:47 |
| jack_ | I created a second user. How do I copy the settings and setup for that user to the new user | 02:47 |
| Boohbah | dorthnagoth: i had my /home from my gentoo install on a separate partition and the ubuntu install didn't do anything to it | 02:47 |
| stephans | does anyone know if there is a decent sidebar for linux? | 02:48 |
| RealGateHead | I did what the wiki said by upgrading and it does not show that there is an upgrade available | 02:48 |
| relic | RealGateHead: sudo do-release-upgrade ? | 02:48 |
| RealGateHead | i just tried that | 02:48 |
| KiD_ChAoS | why can't i format an unallocated flash-drive to ntfs using gparted? | 02:48 |
| dorthnagoth | Well, there's the problem ... | 02:48 |
| RealGateHead | jay@jay-laptop:~$ sudo do-release-upgrade | 02:48 |
| RealGateHead | Checking for a new ubuntu release | 02:48 |
| RealGateHead | No new release found | 02:48 |
| ketrox | TigranG, you shoould create your own with keytouch-editor and the load it wiht keytouch | 02:48 |
| dorthnagoth | It, er, was an ubuntu-only installation. | 02:48 |
| byonix | my firefox web browser won't connect to the internet (won't browse) the message is "the proxy server is refusing connections" i installed epiphany web browser still the same, when i go to edit > preferences > advance > network > settings > connections settings, i could not choose "the configure proxies to the internet", help me out dude | 02:48 |
| c0nka16 | ????????? | 02:48 |
| relic | KiD_ChAoS: i dont think flash drives are ntfs-capable | 02:48 |
| c0nka16 | anyone | 02:49 |
| dorthnagoth | I had to reinstall because, well, I had more than a few irrecoverable errors going on. | 02:49 |
| relic | KiD_ChAoS: how big is it | 02:49 |
| Administrator_ | dorthnagoth, did you know www.baidu.com try to use it search easyrecovery | 02:49 |
| dorthnagoth | The installation didn't ask for any importing re: files, and, er, it sort of ... overwrote everything. | 02:49 |
| TigranG | ketrox: Ive tried that too, and I've tried all the events listed, when I press the play/stop prev next button it doesn't recognize it | 02:49 |
| RealGateHead | i would uninstall 7.04 and start fresh with 7.10 but I barely got this one up and running | 02:49 |
| relic | RealGateHead: you got the updates installed before you tried do-release-upgrade? | 02:49 |
| RealGateHead | as far as i know | 02:50 |
| dorthnagoth | Photorec's found about 2000 of roughly 10000 music samples I had for video editing, and most of the .txt files from the old install ... | 02:50 |
| RealGateHead | maybe i am missing a step | 02:50 |
| byonix | my firefox web browser won't connect to the internet (won't browse) the message is "the proxy server is refusing connections" i installed epiphany web browser still the same, when i go to edit > preferences > advance > network > settings > connections settings, i could not choose "the configure proxies to the internet", help me out dude | 02:50 |
| dorthnagoth | But, er, there's a LOT of stuff I wanted to keep. | 02:50 |
| relic | yeah you gotta be updated before you do release upgrade | 02:50 |
| c0nka16 | please | 02:50 |
| RealGateHead | how do i make sure i did that | 02:50 |
| tritium | dorthnagoth: what are you talking about? The installer doesn't overwrite existing partitions unless you let it. | 02:50 |
| KiD_ChAoS | relic, yes they are, i don't mean compact flash.... im talking about a jump drive | 02:50 |
| Administrator_ | dorthnagoth, did you see what i said | 02:50 |
| ketrox | TigranG, try it again because there is no logical way that it appears in dmesg and not in keytouch | 02:50 |
| deadlock | Is there a task manager for linux | 02:50 |
| TigranG | ketrox: Ok | 02:50 |
| kittentamer | Hi, I'm having trouble with a fresh install of the newest Ubuntu on a computer with no prior OS. The CD is asking for a password before it will let me even start to install. | 02:50 |
| ketrox | kittentamer, try ubuntu ubuntu | 02:51 |
| Administrator_ | kittentamer, usually root | 02:51 |
| relic | KiD_ChAoS: ok. i havent messed with gparted enough.. it may be wise to do that under xp instead. | 02:51 |
| byonix | somebody tell me how to solve the problem, please | 02:51 |
| l21logan99 | Boohbah:i tried ipconfig again and i do have an IP address | 02:51 |
| dorthnagoth | Tritium, in the past the installer GUI's had a prompt asking if there were any files that the user wanted to move over. | 02:51 |
| tritium | deadlock: add the system monitor applet to one of your panels | 02:51 |
| IndyGunFreak | kittentamer: are you sure thats an ubuntu cd?... never ehard that one | 02:51 |
| kittentamer | Just type in root, no password? | 02:51 |
| KiD_ChAoS | relic screw that | 02:51 |
| RealGateHead | relic, it says my system is up to date | 02:51 |
| kittentamer | I downloaded it straight from the site. | 02:51 |
| justin_ | ok how do i install gparted? | 02:52 |
| tritium | kittentamer: there is no password required. What screen are you at? | 02:52 |
| IndyGunFreak | justin_: sudo apt-get install gparted | 02:52 |
| relic | RealGateHead: well if youre barely running, just go ahead and fresh install of 7.10 | 02:52 |
| justin_ | that is so much easier than wat i was doing | 02:52 |
| kittentamer | It looks like a command prompt | 02:52 |
| tritium | justin_: you can also install it from the gui (synaptic) | 02:52 |
| dorthnagoth | In retrospect it didn't do it this time; it wasn't until I'd walked back to the computer and the partitioning was DONE that I realized I hadn't imported or back up many files (I couldn't, mind). | 02:52 |
| RealGateHead | i would but I am not sure i am skilled enough to do it...lol | 02:52 |
| relic | its pretty easy | 02:52 |
| Boohbah | l21logan99: ok, how bout resolv.conf? does it list a namserver? | 02:52 |
| relic | you got just one drive right? | 02:52 |
| IndyGunFreak | justin_: but gparted is fairly wonky in gutsy... works great in feisty... if its something you absolutely need and cant get it to work in Gutsy,l google "Gparted Live CD".. thats what I use.. | 02:53 |
| tritium | kittentamer: which CD are you using? Alternate installer? | 02:53 |
| l21logan99 | yes | 02:53 |
| RealGateHead | come to my house and hook a brother up...lol | 02:53 |
| etfb | Here's an odd MySQL/PHP4 bug. I can mysql_connect() to '127.0.0.1', but not to 'localhost'. WTF? It behaves as if the mysql server isn't even running if I try localhost. Google has no clue. Any guesses as to why? | 02:53 |
| IndyGunFreak | justin_: so what *were* you trying?... compiling source code?..lol | 02:53 |
| eightbit | hello | 02:53 |

| relic | KiD_ChAoS: no | 02:53 |
| steve36 | is anyone having issues with how touchy the HP touchpad is | 02:53 |
| tritium | kittentamer: the live CD should boot into a graphical desktop | 02:53 |

| Moshen212 | plz help me 4 install KDE4 | 02:54 |

| justin_ | ok i did it and this is wat it says | 02:54 |
| tritium | Moshen212: it's not released yet, or packaged for ubuntu | 02:54 |
| etfb | relic: The #mysql channel covers a lot of territory. This really feels like an issue with the Ubuntu apt installation of Mysql. | 02:54 |
| KiD_ChAoS | relic, but it can read them just fine | 02:54 |
| relic | KiD_ChAoS: i havent trusted it for ntfs | 02:54 |

| tritium | justin_: yes, and please don't install | 02:54 |
| etfb | notgod, relic: Fair enough; I'll ask there. Thanks. | 02:55 |
| justin_ | ok if its already installed where is it? | 02:55 |

| tritium | justin_: FYI: dpkg -L <packagename> lists the files in a package | 02:56 |
| Boohbah | l21logan99: can you ping your default gateway? can you ping 64.233.167.99? | 02:56 |
| IndyGunFreak | justin_: thast likely because the partition in use, but iv'e never tried it, so i don't know. | 02:57 |

| nickrud | kittentamer, can you take a photo of the screen and put it on the net? | 02:57 |
| astro76 | justin_, you can't modify mounted partitions, so if it's your running system's partition you will have to use a livecd | 02:57 |
| RealGateHead | since i cant figure this out how can i delete linux from my computer? | 02:57 |

| astro76 | reaper-x, cd ~/Desktop | 02:57 |
| IndyGunFreak | justin_: or if you have an Ubuntu Live CD boot it, instal Gparted, and use it. | 02:57 |
| nickrud | kittentamer, cuz not a single person here knows what you're talking about :) | 02:57 |
| Boohbah | RealGateHead: do you want to install something else over it, or wipe the disk? | 02:57 |

| scguy318 | cheatersrealm: well, I'm headed to my games so have a good night | 03:30 |
| nsegative | actually this may be wrong. I added this to rc.local : cd /root/r2 | 03:31 |
| nsegative | for it to go into that folder | 03:31 |
| zenrium | ya thats wrong | 03:31 |
| nsegative | ah | 03:31 |
| nsegative | teach me master | 03:31 |
| nsegative | :D | 03:31 |
| KlrSpz | flexgrip: what is it you're trying to do? | 03:32 |
| zenrium | just copy the file thats in /root/r2 that runs the wifii into /etc/rc.local | 03:32 |
| zenrium | and it'll run on boot | 03:32 |
| Nutubuntu | With an Athlon A64 X2 would I be better advised to install a64 or i360 ? | 03:32 |
| nsegative | ohhh | 03:32 |
| zenrium | actually sorry | 03:32 |
| zenrium | its /etc/init.d | 03:32 |
| KlrSpz | flexgrip: bridging has not been all that comprimising for me, but i have however set up forwarding easily | 03:32 |
| zenrium | and clean the entry you made in rc.local | 03:32 |
| cav3man | flexgrip, iptables forwarding possibly | 03:33 |

| MenZa | tritium, for the latest version. | 03:43 |
| nickrud | nsegative, yeah, that should work | 03:43 |
| MenZa | KlrSpz, It must be looking elsewhere and finding a symbolic link. | 03:43 |
| nickrud | nsegative, no, sorry, /home/mike/r2 | 03:43 |
| yoface | i installed gutsy then the vista boot stopped working | 03:43 |
| nsegative | what about the acutal command | 03:43 |
| KlrSpz | MenZa: type "which irssi" if that's wrong, you might need to log out and back in to get an updated path, or manually call the binary out such as /bin/irssi | 03:43 |
| nsegative | just ./wlan0up ? | 03:43 |
| MenZa | /usr/bin/irssi can be called. | 03:43 |
| nickrud | nsegative, in place of sudo <command> , just <command> | 03:43 |
| KlrSpz | MenZa: ehh it's a possibility | 03:43 |
| nickrud | nsegative, yes | 03:43 |
| nsegative | ah | 03:43 |

| yoface | then it tells me that there is no suitable drive anymore | 03:46 |
| Dr_willis | wit_273, i would try disabling the console framebuffer, for a start. (in the menu.lst, or edit the boot line in grub, as a test) | 03:46 |
| zenrium | theres a decent set of instructions for fixing that yoface | 03:46 |
| wit_273 | No, I have been running gutsy since it was alpha and kept all updates. It just started to my knowledge tonigh | 03:47 |
| yoface | zen, i checked the forums, else i wouldn't have gone to you experts... | 03:47 |

| renato | Hi... Ubuntu's update notifier just reported me that there are 3 updates available (libgdl-1-0, libgdl-1-common and libgdl-gnome-1-0). When I click on "Install Updates" on Update Manager, it tells me these 3 packages are NOT AUTHENTICATED. Since this was the first time it happens I chose to wait a little more before doing the update.. Anyone else had this issue ? That's under Ubuntu 7.10 | 03:49 |

| nickrud | renato, update your repos, they're just a bit stale is all | 03:50 |
| super-6-2 | preaction, im not sure all i did was do all i can do | 03:50 |
| yoface | nickrud, what does that do? | 03:50 |
| yoface | i don't have fdisk installed | 03:50 |

| super-6-2 | preaction, umm to much to say | 03:50 |
| super-6-2 | preaction, we can start of from scratch | 03:51 |
| jamestabbler | i fixed it with asoundconf set-default-card | 03:51 |
| preaction | super-6-2, if you don't tell me what you did, we're going to go over all of it again. so to save us both time, tell me what you did and what happened when you did it | 03:51 |
| nickrud | yoface, it will tell you some info about your drive. and it is on your system. The reason I mention it is I had similar issues, I could use every existing partition but could not do any changes (like make an ntfs to reinstall vista) Had to reformat everything from scratch | 03:51 |
| jamestabbler | i found the card name with asoundcard list | 03:51 |
| nsegative | damn still no luck, i hate my friends laptop | 03:51 |
| yoface | nickrud, okay, well, let me find out how to install fdisk and then run it | 03:52 |
| nickrud | yoface, fdisk is already on your system. It is there by default on any ubuntu install | 03:52 |
| super-6-2 | preaction, ok to summarize everything. Me and a few people tryed to get this thing to work. From what we are seeing the HDD is in NTFS format and it conflicting with something. i dont know what tho | 03:52 |
| preaction | super-6-2, what did you do to see that? give me exactly what you did | 03:52 |
| wit_273 | Dr_Willis I looked at the menu.lst and I do not see anything about console frame buffer. But I did notice that a backup was created for menu.lst yesterday. I do recall doing any updates though. I am going to try to revert to the backup and see if that resolves the issue | 03:52 |
| zenrium | well I installed ubuntu on hd0,0 and then installed xp on hd0,2 and had to reinstall grub to get ubuntu working again and then had to edit the grubs boot.lst file to add in the xp option and initially I thought hd0,1 was correct but had forgotten about the swap part so changing to hd0,2 made my xp work again from grub. | 03:52 |
| wirechief | yoface check this http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/windows-vista/using-gparted-to-resize-your-windows-vista-partition/ | 03:53 |
| super-6-2 | preaction, i can try i lost most of it from pc restart | 03:53 |
| yoface | nickrud, oh... it gave me a weird error when i tried last | 03:53 |
| yoface | let me try again | 03:53 |
| preaction | super-6-2, if you did nothing, tell me that. if you did mount -tntfs, tell me that. what do you mean you lost it from pc restart? | 03:53 |
| nickrud | yoface, yah, that's what I was afraid of | 03:53 |
| ramza3 | is there a way to get list the "deb" file URL through apt? | 03:53 |
| ramza3 | of a package | 03:53 |
| nickrud | ramza3, apt-cache madison <package> | 03:54 |
| renato | nickrud, I did an apt-get update and tried running the update manager again.. got the same message warning about NOT AUTHENTICATED packages... | 03:54 |
| heatmzzr | anyone know how to get a printer going? hp x4270 if that matters,, | 03:54 |
| nickrud | renato, do you have any 3d party repos? | 03:54 |
| ramza3 | nickrud, madison, werid | 03:54 |
| super-6-2 | preaction, ok make things short we need to do everything again | 03:54 |
| scguy318 | renato: add any repos? | 03:54 |
| KlrSpz | don't worry about the not authenitcated packages, they're fine to install most the time | 03:54 |
| scguy318 | renato: you may need to re-add the GPG keys as detailed by the source-o-matic page | 03:54 |
| renato | nickrud, I do... | 03:55 |
| nickrud | renato, those are probably the problem then. You haven't added their security key to apt | 03:55 |
| preaction | super-6-2, look, seriously, BS doesn't fly around here. either you know what you did or you don't. if you want to remember what you did, look at your ~/.bash_history, but that is not going to say what happened when you did that | 03:55 |
| preaction | there were error messages, what were they? | 03:55 |
| renato | nickrud, I see.. will try to remove them... | 03:56 |
| yoface | nickrud, see pm | 03:56 |
| scguy318 | yoface: you're not registered, so nickrud did not receive your PM | 03:56 |

| nickrud | yoface, didn't you see the thing scguy318 gave you above? bet you're using pidgin | 03:58 |
| renato | CW, apache is already running.... | 03:58 |
| wit_273 | Dr_Willis thanks for pointing me to menu.lst. I reverted to the backup made yesterday and I can now get to my terminal screens. I will compare the too later to see if there were any important differences | 03:58 |
| renato | CW, or there's something else running on port 80.. | 03:58 |
| yoface | anyways, i tried sudo apt-get install gnu-fdisk, then it gave me ... The following packages have unmet dependencies: | 03:58 |
| yoface | flashplugin-nonfree: Depends: nspluginwrapper (>= 0.9.91.4-2ubuntu1) but 0.9.91.2-2 is to be installed | 03:58 |
| yoface | E: Unmet dependencies. Try 'apt-get -f install' with no packages (or specify a solution). | 03:58 |
| scguy318 | nickrud: from his whois he is indeed using Pidgin :) | 03:59 |
| nsegative | but yeah. This driver i unpacked is a hacked driver so no exetucibles are copied out of the folder. each time to activate wireless i browse to folder and run ./wlan0up | 03:59 |
| Dr_willis | wit_273, i always disable the framebuffer, some times it and the X video card drivers can fight. | 03:59 |
| preaction | super-6-2, nothing resembling /dev/anything? try doing "dmesg | less" in a terminal, look for the string you just gave me. it should have a /dev/something near it | 03:59 |
| nickrud | scguy318, I'm not that nosy ;-p | 03:59 |
| CW | renato, ok mind if i pm you to ask you some more ?'s | 03:59 |
| mattholimea1 | what's wrong with pidgen? | 03:59 |
| nsegative | maybe i dont need to have ./wlan0up in the etc but instead just wlan0up | 03:59 |
| Dr_willis | wit_273, also.. do you have a TV plugged in/tv out? i had once where the console defaulted to the tv out.. | 03:59 |
| super-6-2 | preaction, ok ill look | 03:59 |
