I will just have to click on yes/cancel to have the admin rights and the 15 minutes without beeing prompted yes/no or a password [02:32] the website isn't installing the adobe plugin [02:32] james_xxx: after that do this: sudo apt-get -f install && sudo apt-get upgrade [02:32] i can download the actual tar file but not the other ones [02:32] anyone mind showing me how to run through the installation via tar ? [02:33] savvas: still no go [02:33] hm [02:33] Ximal, do aptitude update && sudo aptitude install flashplugin-nonfree [02:33] Ximal, google is your friend D: [02:33] Does anyone know how to get a 360 wireless controller to work in Gusty? [02:33] Ximal, insdtalling what? flash? thats a simple apt-get [02:33] mirak: There are other distros that let you log into X as root (which is very dangerous). I *think* you can enable this on *Ubuntu, someone correct me if I'm wrong here. [02:33] i thought ubuntu handled that with a dialog [02:33] i do wonder if ralink wireless is working in gutsy... === AlinuxOS [n=vsichi@host72-133-dynamic.16-87-r.retail.telecomitalia.it] has left #ubuntu+1 [] === AlinuxOS [n=vsichi@host72-133-dynamic.16-87-r.retail.telecomitalia.it] has joined #ubuntu+1 [02:34] james_xxx: then no idea man, if that didn't work, well.. :\ [02:34] ubuntu-restricted-extras - Commonly used restricted package will install a lot of that stuff. :) java, flash, some others... [02:34] contrast83: I don't want to log in X as root. don't say what I didn't asked [02:34] i'm saying guys .. I'm completely out of my element... what you tell me to do takes me a while to compute.. [02:34] mirak: well consider this: if you use sudo once and not required to do so for 6 hours, then anyone who can login to your system in that period has admin priviledges [02:34] that IS a bad idea [02:34] mirak: I'm not. Just saying that's the closest thing available to what you're asking for, AFAIK. [02:34] i don't know what aptitude update means for example/../ [02:35] savvas: yeah, i have already given up on saving this install. i have not done a fresh installation on this lappy in a long time, so it look like no is the time [02:35] Wait, did somebody say my name? [02:35] ratpoison: yes, but I don't care for my home computer. I don't ask that it's the default. It's just there is not this possibility at all. [02:35] savvas: would you say that installing gutsy beta fresh would be alright? [02:36] Ximal: give me a sec [02:36] Are there any compiz-fusion repositories except the official from canonical?

There are about a million GIT scripts out there that make compiling it a breeze though. :-) [02:37] can we use add/remove to open files we downloaded to assist in package installs ? [02:37] i just thought of that ? [02:37] contrast83: not really, the closest thing is an intermediate between entering the password each time, and having sudo passwordless all the time. the problem with passwordless even actually in ubuntu during 15 minutes, is that any application that you run during this time could trash your computer, since it can acces anything as root. At least a popup that ask yes/cancel is safer than this because it needs a human intervention. [02:37] Ximal: macromedia flash plugin should be there [02:38] you know.. kindof like when mandrake instituted automated rpm install program s? [02:38] Ximal: don't tinker with gnash, it's not done yet :) [02:38] contrast83, ok.. the compiz from conanical isn't working here (kubuntu) :( [02:38] prepending sudo IS human intervention [02:38] savvas : found it.. installing [02:38] i did install gnash but didn't alter it .. [02:38] squidy: Not sure. I compile, no problems here. [02:38] you could just change how long your system remembers your password [02:38] is that ok ? the thing i did with gnash ? === Jordan_U [n=Jordan_U@h-68-165-173-197.snvacaid.dynamic.covad.net] has joined #ubuntu+1 [02:39] contrast83, are you using kubuntu gutsy with compiz working successfully? [02:39] squidy: Want a good how-to for doing that? [02:39] uh oh [02:39] Ximal: I'd suggest that you uncheck and remove it for now, until you get used to playing around with packages [02:39] ratpoison: no it's not. I can do a script with sudo rm -fr / in it and if I run it without knowing it, it's over. [02:39] I"M all happy now.. I got it working ;) [02:39] squidy: Yep [02:39] Ximal: I mean the gnash [02:40] I'll gnash you! (joke.) [02:40] hmm [02:40] ok [02:40] thanks savvy [02:40] heh... i made a funny [02:40] contrast83, have you got a good howto for that? [02:40] It's a generic "I'll you!" [02:40] :) [02:40] well if you run it withouth knowing that and that alone excludes the human intervention [02:40] squidy: one sec... [02:40] thanks [02:40] ratpoison: what ? [02:41] Ximal: go to page http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/welcome/ again, the flash part (not the shockwave part) should be working [02:41] human intervention I think would be "to do an actions willingly, being aware of the concequences" [02:41] squidy: Before you go through the trouble of compiling, what's the exact problem with C-F? [02:41] ratpoison: what I mean is that actually I could run whatever script that come from anywhere and put all the system at stake without even giving this programm root acces intentionnaly. [02:41] Ximal: you have to restart the browser (mozilla firefox) to take effect by the way [02:42] well running a script withouth knowing what it does is a bad idea [02:42] just curious... and yeah i know the restart effects and play thing [02:42] Funny thing in console: [02:42] ratpoison: so you can't use that as an argument to say that a popup asking yes/cancel would be less safer [02:42] sudo something.

Ubuntu 7.10 automatically detects whether the hardware is capable of running compiz; if not, it falls back to normal desktop.

[05:25] doesnt mean i trust him, and doesnt mean that he's not FULL OF CRACK. [05:25] then again he probably didn't base his package on our feisty package [05:25] DanaG: no idea. see the part about me not being a kernel dev [05:25] Oh yeah, and I tried KDE the other day, and noticed the lack of a volume OSD.

[08:08] hm [08:08] cdm10: no package for it in gutsy i had a 3rd party repo in feisty but it never worked for me [08:09] really, the old kernel and l-r-m have even been removed from the archive already [08:09] is there a guide to performance tweaking compiz, specific to nvidia/ati chipset etc? [08:09] snadge: we've already tweaked it [08:09] except for one little part [08:09] good.. thats probably why it just runs quicker now [08:09] which part of the topic was about nvidia? [08:09] newsense_07: That's weird, Feisty had a beryl-plugins-unsupported thingy. [08:09] ppj: the !stages part. [08:09] oh [08:09] snadge: install compizconfig-settings-manager and set your refresh rate to whatever your real refresh rate is, disable autodetection [08:09] !stages [08:09] The Ubuntu Kernel gets updated in stages. If you have the updated kernel, but do not have the corresponding restricted modules, you may be leaving yourself with no X when you reboot. If you have compiled binary versions of your video driver, eg from the nVidia site, you will need to recompile them for the new kernel. This is normal, and not a bug. [08:09] If you read !stages, it mentions binary drivers. [08:10] oh god [08:10] Amaranth: dont you host a 3rd party repo for feisty that includes compiz-fusion packages ? [08:10] Question: Do these stages occur on Feisty as well?

[08:10] yeah except i suspect feisty is going to be dumped in droves once gutsy is released ;) [08:10] That seems quite dangerous. [08:10] cdm10: Yes but only if the kernel ABI changes [08:10] which basically never happens after release [08:11] I think it's happened twice since 2004 [08:11] i dist upgraded with nvidia binary module.. rebooted, everything works better than expected [08:11] Maybe only once [08:11] Amaranth: ABI?

[08:11] cdm10: if it changes the nvidia driver has to be recompiled [08:11] I'm using nvidia 100.14.19, and I fixed my dual-core freezing by installing irqbalance. [08:11] Some of them changed my drive letters! [08:11] Amaranth: whats this one tweak that you didnt mention? :P [08:11] cdm10: but no ABI changes [08:12] cdm10: after feisty release?

Then, a month later, there was an upgrade, and it switched to /dev/hda and no weird clicky noise. Then, another month later or so, it went back. [08:13] Now, in Gutsy, it's /dev/sda but no clicky noise. [08:13] Amaranth: already did that in feisty, it has remembered too [08:13] cdm10: A change like that would not happen after release [08:13] snadge: ok then, it's pretty much as tuned as it gets [08:13] Amaranth: Well, it did, and many people complained about their letters changing in #ubuntu.

[08:17] ppj: i dont even know of a non gui app to do that, sorry [08:18] cdm10: compcomm is the old name so theres probably older plugins there [08:18] usser: Yeah, that would be my guess, but still... why is it in the repos?

[01:13] tech0007: the question should be are you ready for Gutsy? [01:13] stable here. [01:14] I heard there are some kernel issues on laptops? [01:14] tech0007: I did the switch, and I am very happy. But there are tons of upgrades/bug fixing every other day [01:14] I get new problems and solutions with every upgrade [01:14] OldPink: Nvidia drivers do not function any more if installed with apt-get right now [01:14] when will it be released? [01:14] !stages [01:14] The Ubuntu Kernel gets updated in stages. If you have the updated kernel, but do not have the corresponding restricted modules, you may be leaving yourself with no X when you reboot. If you have compiled binary versions of your video driver, eg from the nVidia site, you will need to recompile them for the new kernel. This is normal, and not a bug. [01:14] 10/18 [01:15] tech007 I would wait some days unless you are willing to get your hands dirty :) [01:15] ok..think i'll jst wait...time enough to add more RAM to my system [01:15] hahaha [01:15] luca: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=569535 :) [01:15] I'll go and try entrance with ubuntu :) === claria [n=aem@dslb-084-057-138-192.pools.arcor-ip.net] has joined #ubuntu+1 [01:15] I have to say however that the new kernel rocks in terms of power consumption [01:15] no question.

[01:15] I did gain about 2 hours also using powertop :) [01:15] wow [01:15] OldPink: let me see [01:16] yeah exactly [01:16] only I do not get even the bars [01:16] Interesting [01:16] does gutsy have more support for phone connectivity and legacy usb webcams? [01:16] and yes, gnome apps stopped working...not a big deal, except for tracker :( [01:16] tech0007: no idea really [01:16] no idea.. [01:17] usb webcams patches have been included into the kernel since 7.04 or 6.10 though [01:17] if it functions on linux, then it is already installed in ubuntu, practically :) [01:18] ... gutsy isn't LTS, is it? [01:18] nope [01:18] hardy heron (april) will be [01:18] Yeah, I remember now, thanks. [01:19] For all those that stuck with Dapper, will there be a Dapper > Hardy upgrade? [01:19] From LTS to LTS? [01:19] yeah, it's called ISO [01:19] OldPink: really, no idea, but I think that a sudo apt-get dist-upgrade *might* do the trick in paril [01:19] april [01:20] and ten thousand packages. [01:20] I don't have any Dapper systems, just wondering [01:20] yeah probably [01:20] This is never going to work [01:20] well I dunno but last LTS was WAY different from even feisty [01:21] I'v been in Ubuntu since Dapper, I should know :) I had a lot of problems until Feisty...that edition rocked for me :) [01:22] uhm seems at least that we are in kernel freeze right now [01:22] I started with Dapper, 6.06 === chronographer [n=agl@150.6.233.220.exetel.com.au] has joined #ubuntu+1 [01:22] me too [01:22] Haven't had *any* problems [01:23] On any release [01:23] Feisty was bad for me.

[06:42] gnomefreak, indeed, but i meant his personal settings for some applications, like his bookmarks are in .mozilla in his home folder [06:43] marko-_-, yes, even if they are in the same partition it won't be overwritten [06:43] oh ok then === Bandit12 [n=gavin@84.13.142.28] has joined #ubuntu+1 [06:43] I just did a update and experiencing severe mouse lag, any ideas for a fix ?

[07:40] martalli: im not sure why to keep osx other than for firmware updates [07:41] thompa: Couldn't figure out how to turn it off....and I wouldn't want to do it permanently, but rather an option to turn it off, or have it turn off when an external mouse is present [07:41] Dr_willis: dunno -- to be honest [07:41] I think Dr_willis is right [07:41] mahrellon, you can make the fstab file have a entry for it with 'users' or was it 'user' option. [07:41] mahrellon, or just make a fstab entry for it,. and let it mount at boot. [07:42] martalli: try qsynapics it works here [07:42] thompa, i think i saw a fix for the touchpad somewhere but dont ask me where [07:42] i just git a fix thanks [07:42] i can disable or enable it [07:42] Oh, quoting the wikipedia: "Starting with the Linux 2.6.x series, there is no significance to even or odd numbers, with new feature development going on in the same kernel series. Linus Torvalds has stated that this will be the model for the foreseeable future." [07:42] Dr_willis, Thanks man. I'll use your info and google up some tips'n tricks. I'm sort of a newb to Ubuntu so I'll need someone to hold my hand all the way and It's probably better it's google who'll be doing the handholding so I don't have to bother you guys to much =) [07:42] Dr_willis: however, I think that the 23 will be released as a 24 soonish. actually the 23rd is now downloadable as a rc9...shouldn't be that long anymore, I guess [07:42] thompa: OK, I will try it [07:44] martalli: you may have to edit xorg.conf is all so qsynapics will run [07:46] It says I need the synaptics driver, too, but xorg already notes I have a synaptics trackpad [07:46] Hmm. I will find this in a sec [07:46] I think mepis had qsynaptics installed by default and it had worked great [07:46] martalli: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=493758 === MetaBot [n=metabot@unaffiliated/ljl/bot/metabot] has joined #ubuntu+1 [07:47] cu folks later [07:47] you need to maybe add the touchpad section to xorg.conf [07:47] very easy === Stev [n=steven@ppp-237-170.32-151.iol.it] has joined #ubuntu+1 [07:47] got to go for a while....

[09:05] my laptop makes powersave when i have power cable plugged in and dynamic when power cable is out [09:05] isnt it a little curious? ;) [09:06] the saltydog a lot of stuff is in the home folder so when you reinstall create a new user and then you can migrate yor config about [09:06] Lynoure, if I reinstall, it will reinstall the same buggy kernel. [09:06] Stev: yes. One possibility is that it stopped updating your screen for some reason, while it worked away happily in the background. [09:06] Lynoure: a reinstall is a very windows solution it wont fix the problem for anybody else or tell anybody else how to [09:06] thesaltydog: you can reinstall feisty, if you wish, too. [09:06] Stev: the output you quoted indicates fairly reliably that your system is okay, though. [09:06] soundray: i don't think.. i was in front of my pc while upgrading [09:06] Xbehave: I did not recommend it. [09:06] soundray: uhm ok..:| [09:07] Stev: did it stop at installing scrollkeeper btw? [09:07] i'm unable to open deskbar preferences on gutsy [09:07] thesaltydog: you can run some dpkg commands to list everything you have installed and a copy of /etc will save the configs [09:07] Lynoure, as far as I can reboot with the old feisty kernel, I prefer to wait for a new 2.6.22 [09:07] Xbehave: mostly antirecommended installing on one's main pc without being prepared for this. Especially if there are no backups [09:08] Lynoure, I know, but we are very close to the release, so the testers may expect an almost stable system. [09:08] thesaltydog: oh, I was under the impression you could not get a working system at all. Sorry about the misunderstanding [09:08] soundray: yes scrollkeeper is installed === BHSPitLappy [n=steve-o@unaffiliated/bhspitmonkey] has joined #ubuntu+1 [09:08] Lynoure, no, I have the desktop working now with gutsy but, booting with feisty's kernel. [09:08] Stev: I'm asking: when it stopped progress on the install, was the last package it worked on called scrollkeeper? [09:08] the vcery big problem is on the laptop... no way to boot. [09:08] Has anyone done an update in the last few minutes? [09:09] testers should always expect everything to go wrong, this morning my swap stoped working [09:09] DigitalNinja, doing one right now.....

[09:10] did an upgrade last night and a few things broke [09:10] had to go back a kernel [09:10] thesaltydog whats the probelm, your home is buzy before you mount it? [09:10] Lynoure, for the laptop I will have to reinstall. No way to boot. I have a loop on device-mapper [09:10] soundray: hidd doesn't see it, hditool doesn't see it. lsusb neither, but expected since I don;t think it's a usb device.. the bluetooth is biult-in [09:10] Xbehave, yes. [09:10] Stev: never mind, it's just where I seemed to get a similar problem just now. [09:10] i can't even work on fixing things at this resolution its pissing me off [09:11] Xbehave, but that is on the desktop. On the laptop there is no way to boot.

[09:13] ppj: no [09:13] k [09:13] ppj: you need to wait for the developers to fix things [09:13] i know [09:13] Xbehave, no.. the root is on a plain device [09:13] ppj: I did an update yesterday and it broke X [09:13] i'm just sick of having to run in 640x480, i can't even click on half of the options on my screen [09:13] ppj: I rebooted, selected the previous kernel and everything was fine [09:13] cool i'll see what happens [09:14] I hope it works for you === tim__b [i=tim__b@draws.asciians.info] has joined #ubuntu+1 [09:14] is uninstalling a lvm an option, if so thats the easiest fix, if not im looking for the bug i read it had a fix, either a patch to kernel or you tell lvm to not use any drives the kernel does [09:15] Xbehave: You can't remove LVM [09:15] Xbehave, that's what I was looking for. How can I tell lvm not to bother with my drives? [09:16] if you setup your drives using LVM you are stuck [09:16] DigitalNinja, I swear I NEVER setup my drives with lvm.. [09:17] Okay [09:17] what does fdisk say [09:17] Stev: no, my system is fine after a dpkg --configure -a [09:17] soundray: I seem to recall that the bluetooth showed up under 7.04 .. but I didn't have a bt device to connect at the time.

It is exactly what I have on the laptop [09:20] soundray: also, if it matters: I did a clean install of gutsy on live CD dated sept 25th [09:20] thesaltydog: What is the problem? [09:20] soundray: deskbar, in the panel [09:20] DigitalNinja, sorry I am confusing you, but I have 2 problems. One on the desktop and one on the laptop. [09:20] Let's start with the desktop: [09:20] Oh [09:20] haha.. found a bug [09:20] Which one is the LVM problem [09:20] Stev: what's that for?

I'm going to do a clean reinstall today to make sure everything is setup correctly. (It's true what they say about production machines!)

Anyway I will continue with the old kernel until a good upgrade comes. [09:24] if this frezzes again I'm going to do a reinstall of every package on this machine [09:24] thesaltydog: When was the last time you did an upgrade [09:24] one hour ago [09:24] oh [09:24] well [09:24] erichj: in resources / find file do you have tracker or the old search dialog? if the old search dialog is normal where to open tracker?

[11:15] Viper550: I know, but I want to change so that Konqueror opens when I doubleclick on my hardrive-icon. [11:15] adi_: Yes, I realize that. It shouldn't change anything. [11:15] adi_, what does xml has to do with msttcorefonts? [11:15] on ubuntu I know how to do it [11:15] Don't want Dolphin to be default, I want Konqueror as default. === miki [n=miljenko@dh108-147.xnet.hr] has joined #ubuntu+1 [11:15] adi_: sudo aptitude install msttcorefonts should do it... [11:15] adi_: it automatically configured them for me. [11:15] Put a shortcut to konqueror on your desktop [11:15] really [11:15] ? [11:15] cdm10: sorry a bit slow but this is how it looks for me. http://:81.94.95.51:8080/fish.png [11:15] I followed aome guides and [11:15] adi_: You're not telling me what's happening. I don't know what you mean by "stuck with xml files." [11:15] adi_: yeah... where can't you find them? [11:16] yeah ok [11:16] slackern: Yeah, taht's what it's supposed to look like... [11:16] i installed msttcorefonts from adept [11:16] Dammit I can't type today. [11:16] Damn it, I really don't find it anywhere. [11:16] is there a way to set the default size of a window when i unmaximize it [11:16] guys I did not get the CompizConfig Settings Manager in my gutsy install. also emerald so now I'm not sure what else is missing [11:16] I'm going to try running without my nvidia drivers. [11:16] firefox and gedit end up being the exact same size, which is really annoying [11:16] then i had to extract xml files in to some dir [11:16] freezerburn: do sudo aptitude install emerald compizconfig-settings-manager [11:16] and this is where im stuck [11:17] adi_: You shouldn't have to do that... if you've installed the msttcorefonts package, it should just work. Can you go to your office app and tell me if you see Times New [11:17] damn, Times New Roman [11:17] adi_, msttcorefonts = a font package. after it's installed, it's installed. and that's it. no xml files to mess up with [11:17] realy?? [11:17] adi_, sudo apt-get install msttcorefonts [11:17] and that's just it [11:17] ok im trayin out now [11:17] it's installed [11:17] adi_: Could you just check if the fonts are installed? [11:18] adi_: Like, in an office app? [11:18] ok [11:18] 1 sek [11:18] i wonder where those xml files came from [11:18] hehe [11:18] cdm10: Do you use KDE?

[11:19] LiMaO: Why? [11:19] but its my fallt [11:19] i'm into photography as a hobby too =) [11:19] LiMaO: They're family-only photos :) [11:20] LiMaO: I do black-and-white film photography in school, but my Flickr is mostly just quick snapshots. [11:20] i've unistalled them after I thought the guide was not for me [11:20] im doing it now [11:20] oh ok, sorry for asking =) [11:20] That's ok. [11:20] what was th shell command?? [11:20] adi_: sudo aptitude install msttcorefonts [11:20] ok [11:21] LiMaO: I'd really like to get a DSLR so I can get more into digital photography as art. [11:21] i'm looking forward to buying a canon 40d [11:21] downloading..... [11:21] really want it [11:21] cdm10: I agree I would love the 12Mp DSLRs that are out there [11:21] then I have to reboot the machine [11:21] LiMaO: I think if I get one, I'll get a Nikon. I'm normally a Canon guy, but for some reason I think NIkon is the way to go. [11:22] or just ctrl+alt+canc [11:22] adi_: neither. === bur[n] er [n=burner@unaffiliated/burner] has left #ubuntu+1 [] [11:22] so how im going to see them on apps and in konqueror??? [11:22] Aishiko: I'm not looking for resolution with a DSLR... most DSLRs are about on par resolution-wise with compact cameras. I just like the bigger sensor size and other DSLR-ish things. [11:22] should I set them up?? [11:23] adi_: No, you'll just see them in your word processor in the fonts menu. [11:23] is this just for open office?? [11:23] cdm10: I fixed it =) [11:23] adi_: No, it's for anything. [11:23] x_link: ok :) [11:23] cause I want to use them on all [11:23] ah ok [11:23] cdm10: I just did sudo aptitude purge dolphin =) [11:24] cdm10: I go for everything SLR like, including resolution, compact cameras are annoying to me and way to much of a uni-tasker to me [11:24] x_link: Yeah, that would work :) [11:24] cdm10, i would get a 200D if i went for a nikon, but it's much more expensive [11:24] LiMaO: Yeah :) === miki [n=miljenko@dh108-147.xnet.hr] has left #ubuntu+1 [] [11:24] I'll probably go for the low-end.

And the noise from the tiny sensor means that you can't use shots full-resolution unless you take them in really bright light.

[11:44] that just wiped out all of my settings [11:44] Chri2: your compiz settings?

Ctrl-Alt-F7 will take you back to the graphical interface and you can use System->Preferences->Appearance to disable visual effects [11:53] <_dan_> gutsy u can do a mv /usr/bin/compiz to /usr/bin/compizBAKCUP so compiz wont get executed on startup [11:53] thanks Ng, but when i log normal, the screen becomes white [11:53] <_dan_> in case compiz startup breakes your x for some reason [11:53] gutsy: that's fine, you can do the ctrl-alt-f1 at that point [11:54] thanks _dan_, i'm goingo to try it now [11:54] gutsy: running metacity will stop compiz === cabajgtr [n=mythtv@c-76-102-191-187.hsd1.ca.comcast.net] has joined #ubuntu+1 [11:54] gutsy: please try mine before _dan_'s [11:54] gutsy: Don't do _dan_'s [11:54] it is way less invasive [11:54] ok, one second, i'm in recovery mode :P [11:54] gutsy: or at least do it as a last resort [11:54] <_dan_> yeah pls dont do mine, mine is evil :P [11:55] Can the new resolution manager switch between mirror and xinerama modes?
