| matthias | the file is still in the desktop ? | 00:25 |
| androver | pr4bh: what i'm suggesting is that you run winodws in a virtual environment like vmware or virtualbox | 00:25 |
| Some_Person | !wine | ProGzZz | 00:25 |
| ubotu | ProGzZz: WINE is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine for more information, and see !AppDB for application compatibility. | 00:25 |
| DB42 | if i want a simple wiki / file sharing / svn machine does it really matter if it's ubuntu-desktop or ubuntu-server ? | 00:25 |
| androver | InfernoX222: cool good luck :) | 00:26 |
| gnomefreak | CypherX1389: sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.config and replace the driver name with vesa | 00:26 |
| Havnfun | Is FAT32 best way to move files between windows and Ubuntu? | 00:26 |
| gnomefreak | CypherX1389: its under device it hink | 00:26 |
| Gerinych | alright another question | 00:26 |
| unop | DB42, it shouldnt matter, as long as all the packages supporting the application are installed | 00:26 |
| gnomefreak | think | 00:26 |
| crc32 | umm that was a man page quote showing that dpkg -S can only search for file files that in already installed packages. | 00:26 |
| matthias | bagelong: this is something basic with movement of files that faild ... | 00:26 |
| bagelong | matthias: When I go to place -> homefolder, it is there | 00:26 |
| Pelo | DB42, you c an remove the desktop stuff aftet the install and instal the sever packages you need , it doesn't realy mattter, it'sthe same bones | 00:26 |
| Gerinych | how do you dualboot ubuntu and vista with vista installed first | 00:26 |

| pr4bh | androver: hmm, but i cant actually INSTALL windows that way can i? | 00:26 |
| Some_Person | ProGzZz: you might be better off running windows in a vm | 00:26 |
| androver | pr4bh: yup, you definitely can! http://www.blog.arun-prabha.com/2007/05/07/installing-virtualbox-and-windows-using-virtualbox-in-ubuntu/ | 00:27 |

| Some_Person | !vm | ProGzZz | 00:27 |
| ubotu | ProGzZz: There are several solutions for running other operating systems (or their programs) inside Ubuntu, while using the native CPU as much as possible: !QEmu (with !KQemu), !VirtualBox, !VMWare, as well as !WINE and !Cedega for Windows applications | 00:27 |
| matthias | bagelong: okey do unzip dell file ... | 00:27 |
| NeT_DeMoN | Gerinych, just stick in the live CD | 00:27 |
| Stormx2 | digital_poet: That's always a bummer. | 00:27 |

| NeT_DeMoN | Gerinych, it will partition your hard drive for you without you loosing your files | 00:27 |
| bagelong | matthias: yes. the terminal code is unzip dell file? | 00:27 |
| unop | crc32, in my experience a package does not need to be installed, i've found it to work otherwise (but not always) -- but as i said, it does not always succeed and when it doesn't use packages.ubuntu.com | 00:27 |
| DB42 | if i want a simple wiki / file sharing / svn machine does it really matter if it's ubuntu-desktop or ubuntu-server ? | 00:27 |
| Gerinych | no | 00:27 |

| Angel-SL | i installed the java6 JRE | 00:29 |
| NeT_DeMoN | Gerinych, your trying to restore vista with your live CD? | 00:29 |
| crc32 | http://pastebin.com/m2f19ed70 <-- cryptmount-setup is not there even though http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?searchon=contents&keywords=cryptmount-setup&mode=exactfilename&suite=hardy&arch=any says it is | 00:29 |
| Angel-SL | i need to find out where to install a plugin | 00:29 |
| matthias | bagelong: unzip than follow the name of the windows drivers name ending with .exe | 00:29 |
| crc32 | this is gutsy | 00:29 |
| Gerinych | NeT_DeMoN: no, i installed ubuntu already | 00:29 |
| CypherX1389 | gnomefreak: Thanks a bunch for all your help. | 00:29 |
| pr4bh | androver: just one more question (sorry for being such an ass btw): using virtualbox, would i be able to dualboot into windows as well via grub menu? | 00:29 |
| gnomefreak | CypherX1389: yw | 00:29 |
| MrGnu | Greetings all, I am now in the Hardy ZONE WOOT | 00:29 |
| androver | InfernoX222: gotcha. ok, so the expresscard isn't showing up there. take it out, then put it back in, wait a few seconds, then type "dmesg" and paste a few screens from the bottom into a pastebin. | 00:29 |
| NeT_DeMoN | Gerinych, explain to me with more details on what your trying to do | 00:29 |
| androver | pr4bh: nope, you'd have to run ubuntu first, then open up virtualbox, and run windows from within it. | 00:30 |
| Angel-SL | hi. I installed the java6 JRE using synaptic; where would i install a plugin? | 00:30 |
| androver | pr4bh: there are ways around that, but it's complicated :) | 00:30 |
| dupin | It look like everything is O.K. now | 00:30 |
| IndyGunFreak | Angel-SL: thejava6 plugin is in synaptic also | 00:31 |
| matthias | bagelong: wit h the tab key you can do a lot ... | 00:31 |
| Jambon | can anyone tell me what to do about grub and xfs? | 00:31 |
| CJS3141 | SeaPhor: have you had your wireless card working on the computer in any other OS or in a previous version of Ubuntu? | 00:31 |
| pr4bh | androver: if you can point me to any good links, id appreciate? | 00:31 |
| bagelong | matthias: I know have this file extracted to the desktop: bcmwl5.inf | 00:31 |
| Gerinych | NeT_DeMoN: i installed xp along with vista but the xp bootloader got screwed up and i am trying to fix the vista bootloader with ubuntu somehow | 00:31 |
| bagelong | matthias: This is the driver file. by the way, it is the same file I have already tried to use. | 00:31 |
| IndyGunFreak | Gerinych: lol, good luck w/ that.. boot a boot disk and run fixmbr and that should do it. | 00:31 |
| Kranklin | Hey guys, i have a problem (bug?). I just installed Ubuntu 8.04. Everything works except when i leave my computer for a while, when i come back, the screen is black and the only way I can fix it is by pressing ctrl+alt+f2 and then ctrl+alt+f7 or buy pressing ctrl+shift+backspace. also, when i normally go to another console with ctrl+alt+f*, the screen goes black and i see blue lines go down the screen, and the screen gets brighter and bright | 00:31 |
| androver | pr4bh: well, the trick for you would be getting windows installed without a dvd drive. that's not really an ubuntu problem; it's just a general "installing windows" problem. is there no way you could just borrow an external DVD drive or something? | 00:32 |
| matthias | bagelong: okey the extraction worked ? | 00:32 |
| InfernoX222 | androver: how far from the bottem? start at a wan0 or where it mentions ndiswrapper? | 00:32 |
| androver | InfernoX222: hard to say, paste as much as you think matters | 00:32 |
| david_-_- | here is what i get after removing wine and reinstalling it http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/64600/ then i did dmesg in the term after the errors and this is what i get http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/64601/ | 00:32 |

| Darkchef | i typed this but it disagreed with me for some reason .... "sudo cp -r ./WinMSN7/ /usr/share/amsn/skins/" | 00:33 |
| Darkchef | " | 00:33 |
| matthias | bagelong: okey that is okey now hold on let me see where to enter it again , this is the windows version that worked for me as well, let me see, we are comming to and ned ... | 00:33 |
| androver | pr4bh: i've looked into that; i really don't think it's possible :( | 00:33 |
| crc32 | or do I need to reinstall now? :| | 00:33 |
| pr4bh | androver: ah ok :( stuck with ubuntu then! :s | 00:33 |
| androver | Darkchef: what's the problem with that command? | 00:34 |
| CJS3141 | SeaPhor: OK, start by going to http://linux-wless.passys.nl/ and see if your card is compatible with Linux, otherwise you have to use ndiswrapper. | 00:34 |
| androver | pr4bh: ah well, not so bad :) | 00:34 |
| matthias | bagelong: go system->administration->windows wireless driver | 00:34 |
| crc32 | can I migrate from 7.1 to 8.04 with out a reinstall? | 00:34 |

| isuka_ | Good evening. I was wondering if anyone could help me configure a synaptics touchpad, or lead me to some documentation on doing so? I'm having trouble with the calibration of the device. In windows, the left 80% of the pad is used for movement, and the right 20% is for scrolling. | 00:46 |
| Ntemis | but as i run system hardware check that came with hardy i have also green screen thwere is says something like must show bars | 00:46 |
| Twim4 | androver the other one has no connection to inet(router) | 00:46 |
| Darkchef | azuki - yeah thats correct | 00:46 |
| androver | Twim4: if you put it in eth0 does it work? if so, it'd be easier if you were able to get on the net using eth0 and then we can diagnose using copy/paste | 00:46 |
| Darkchef | i had to break it with ctrl + c | 00:46 |
| unop | zcat[1], some software adds zero-padding to the ISO when burning it, so when you md5sum the device, you get a different result | 00:46 |

| azuki | Darkchef: normally the SUDO command should ask for your password.. and after that it will start copying your files.. this could take a while (obviously) depending on the size ... | 00:46 |
| androver | Ntemis: it might be enough for someone but i have no idea about unichrome pro cards :( | 00:47 |
| azuki | Darkchef: did it ask for the password? | 00:47 |
| Twim4 | androver, it works for me in the morning and after the dist upgrade it doesnt work anymore | 00:47 |
| zcat[1] | unop: ahhh, that makes sense.. but why would k3b do that and then fail on it's own self-check of the disk immediately after.. surely that is a bug! | 00:47 |
| Darkchef | azuki - ok , well it never asked for the pass | 00:47 |
| CJS3141 | SeaPhor: you say it has linux drivers that came with it? | 00:47 |

| cky | rdavis: What trouble are you having? Are you installing themes using .debs or by hand? I'm about to try doing one by hand, it'll be interesting to see if I run into issues.... | 01:01 |
| hydrogen | hmm, okay, that was a silly question | 01:01 |
| InfernoX222 | unop: this is what i get when i type make in the cowpatty directory http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/64618/ | 01:01 |
| hydrogen | as I have flash 9 | 01:01 |
| * hydrogen wonders why mlb.com doesn't believe him | 01:01 | |
| mrbuntuman | anyone knows how to fix this error (ur linked kernel source doesnt match ur running version 2.6.24.3 vs 2.6.24-16-generic ) | 01:02 |
| panfist | where's the proper place to put a script so it's in the $path? where's the $path defined by default? it's not in ~/.bashrc | 01:02 |
| unop | InfernoX222, did you run ./configure first? | 01:02 |
| crimsun | mrbuntuman: edit the top-level Makefile to change EXTRAVERSION as appropriate | 01:02 |
| djlenoir | cky, thanks. so GRUB does not recognize the drives in the same order as BIOS? maybe if I changed the menu.lst file that might help? | 01:02 |
| cky | panfist: It's in ~/.profile, in 8.04. | 01:02 |
| rdavis | cky: the normal, System/Preference/Appearance and then drag+drop the theme isn't working. It says "New Theme Installed" and then ever switched, or displays it is an available option. | 01:02 |
| mechdave | panfist, you can put local scripts in ~/bin | 01:02 |
| crimsun | mrbuntuman: (i.e., change the .3 to -16-generic) | 01:02 |
| panfist | mechdave and cky thank you | 01:02 |
| rdavis | Never switches, that is. | 01:02 |
| mechdave | panfist, or you can use /usr/local/bin | 01:02 |
| unop | InfernoX222, actually, you really ought to be following the instructions in the README/INSTALL file .. there might be any number of things you need to do before running make, it really depends on the source package | 01:02 |
| cky | djlenoir: That's one idea, but if you want consistent behaviour for both PATA connected and not connected, then editing menu.lst is only going to make it not work when your PATA drives are disconnected. | 01:03 |
| IntangibleLiquid | is there a way to install IE in Ubuntu? | 01:03 |
| Black_Magic | also to run Java Applets if i exit firefox i have to disable then enable java twice to get it to work | 01:03 |
| akonkwa | Does anyone know where I can find a Source.list file for my hardy release ? | 01:03 |
| danbhfive | IntangibleLiquid: yes | 01:03 |
| IntangibleLiquid | <danbhfive>: how to? | 01:04 |
| unop | InfernoX222, and it looks like you might need to install this package too. sudo aptitude install libssl-dev | 01:04 |
| danbhfive | IntangibleLiquid: IES4linux or something | 01:04 |
| josho | Are there any utilities I can use for XML parsing available via the shell in my vanilla hardy install? | 01:04 |
| josho | I want to download some files based on entries in an XML config file | 01:04 |
| unop | josho, the python ooxml i believe | 01:04 |
| absnt | Since I can't seem to figure out how to view/control my CURRENT session from another computer then can someone tell me how to copy all my startup/config/settings to the new user account i created? | 01:04 |
| cky | rdavis: Okay. I'll have a quick scan of the docs to see if I run into any obvious issues, but I don't usually install themes that way and can't help very much. :-( | 01:04 |
| akonkwa | Does anyone know where I can find a Source.list file for my hardy release ? | 01:04 |
| IntangibleLiquid | <danbhfive>: thanks | 01:05 |
| Laser88 | akonkwa: take your old sources.list and replace gutsy(?) through hardy... | 01:05 |
| josho | unop: I considered Perl or Python but I don't know either of them, and I want to do it purely via shell | 01:05 |
| unop | akonkwa, you really ought to just do this. sudo do-release-upgrade | 01:05 |
| josho | Unless someone wants to hack together a python script for me? | 01:05 |
| uyann | where are the ubuntu installation logs located? | 01:05 |
| josho | absnt: cp ~/* /home/username/ ? | 01:05 |
| unop | josho, no what i mean is, there is a python utility called ooxml that can be used with shell scripts to deparse xml | 01:05 |
| mechdave | uyann, usually in /root | 01:05 |
| icesword | !info miranda | 01:06 |
| ubotu | Package miranda does not exist in hardy | 01:06 |
| rdavis | akonkwa: I think this is what you're talking about. It's located at: /etc/apt/sources.list | 01:06 |
| icesword | !info miranda-im | 01:06 |
| ubotu | Package miranda-im does not exist in hardy | 01:06 |
| chumii | hi! i have hardy beta installed and want to update to full release version.. can anyone tell me what i have to do to keep the 2.6.24-12 kernel? | 01:06 |
| akonkwa | thanx! | 01:06 |
| josho | unop: Ah, right. Sure it's called ooxml? All the results I find for that are the MS format >_> | 01:06 |
| mirdin76 | ls | 01:06 |
| iobelix | can anybody please help me share a reiserfs external harddrive over a wireless network (both computers are linux, no windows involved) | 01:06 |
| unop | josho, quoting greybot from #bash - You can't realistically parse XML with bash or line-based tools like grep/sed/cut. Try xmlstarlet|xmlgawk|xpath or switch to another language. :) | 01:07 |
| mirdin76 | does anyone know if there are changes in fstab that make my auto mounts not open? | 01:07 |
| mechdave | iobelix, try looking up nfs howto o http://tldp.org | 01:07 |
| Laser88 | iobelix: search the wiki for nfs | 01:07 |
| unop | josho, xmlstarlet perhaps | 01:07 |
| iobelix | mechdave, laser88 thank you! | 01:08 |
| mirdin76 | does anyone know if there are changes in fstab in Hardy upgrade that make my auto mounts not open? | 01:08 |
| josho | unop: Hmm... maybe I'll just do it in C =S XMLstarlet looks cool but more trouble than its worth. Anyway, thanks for your help! | 01:08 |
| unop | josho, are you kidding me? | 01:08 |
| absnt | is the ubuntu X server a XFree86 version 4 server? | 01:08 |
| cky | djlenoir: Reading the GRUB documentation, there is a way you can edit the menu.lst to make this work. | 01:08 |
| InfernoX222 | unop: i ran the command just listed and it worked - retried the make command and got this output http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/64620/ - the install file only says http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/64621/ | 01:08 |
| Jambon | so someone recommend which filesystem to use? I've always used ext3, but am wondering if there are anyone noticeable advantages to the others. XFS won't install (hangs on grub install), so unless someone knows how to get around that, what about reiserfs? | 01:09 |
| UBUNTUJAY123 | was there more people downloading ubuntu this time | 01:09 |
| teicah | why would I stop receiving the mailing list messages (ubuntu-users)? My other lists keep on coming. | 01:09 |
| Laser88 | mirdin76: perhaps changing hda to sda - don't know, made a fresh install... | 01:09 |
| cky | djlenoir: I'm just reading through the menu.lst file to see if there is a way to integrate it with Ubuntu's update-grub facility, so that you don't have any extra work to do when you upgrade your kernel. | 01:10 |
| ubuntu | Hola a todos! | 01:10 |
| ubuntu | Hello everyone! | 01:10 |
| SpAssY | hello | 01:10 |
| UBUNTUJAY123 | hi | 01:10 |
| J-_ | !hi | ubuntu | 01:10 |
| ubotu | ubuntu: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu! | 01:10 |
| ubuntu | how r you? | 01:10 |
| josho | unop: Well, I don't have much scripting experience, so I might as well do it in C | 01:10 |
| josho | unop: I mean, I've done a bit of PHP | 01:10 |
| unop | InfernoX222, ok, pay attention to the error messages you get.. you see line #2 of make .. "pcap.h not found" .. that means you need to install the package that contains pcap.h .. use http://packages.ubuntu.com to find out which package that is | 01:11 |
| * josho pokes ubuntu. | 01:11 | |
| rdavis | Is anyone else having trouble installing themes and/or icon sets in 8.04? | 01:11 |
| Laser88 | InfernoX222: configure already failed... | 01:11 |
| InfernoX222 | unop: alright will do... sorry new to linux and seem to get trouble with ever command >.< | 01:11 |
| InfernoX222 | laser88: configure was not recognized | 01:12 |
| unop | josho, really, writing parsers for html and xml is _not_ easy .. plenty of people don't understand just how hard it is, why reinvent the wheel when there are plenty of libraries/utilities out there that do the job and do it well ? | 01:12 |
| InfernoX222 | laser88: it hasnt been recognized in any of the files i have tired it in | 01:12 |
| josho | unop: Like, I'd use a C library | 01:12 |
| cky | djlenoir: For the record, GRUB does seem to use BIOS order for drives: http://www.gnu.org/software/grub/manual/html_node/Device-syntax.html | 01:12 |
| josho | unop: I'm not writing a complete SGML parser | 01:12 |
| unop | josho, there are php xml libraries too if you prefer to use php -- just don't attempt to rewrite a parser :) | 01:12 |
| cky | djlenoir: But for some reason the BIOS decides to like putting PATA drives ahead of SATA drives? *shrug* | 01:12 |
| nickrud | unop, we'd have never had inflatables with your attitude ;) | 01:12 |
| josho | unop: I just want to extract the data from a particular set of tags | 01:12 |
| unop | josho, xmlstarlet is perfect for that :) | 01:13 |
| josho | unop: Heck, if I didn't expect it to increase in complexity I could just use regular expressions | 01:13 |
| unop | josho, err, another mistake -- using regexes to parse xml | 01:13 |
| Laser88 | InfernoX222: cowpatty is the unpacked folder of the package? | 01:14 |
| Dekkard | looks like clean install is the way to go eh? | 01:14 |
| djlenoir | cky, I was thinking that was the problem. I am wondering if there is a way to change that. Otherwise, I guess I could try installing Ubuntu to the first PATA drive instead of the first SATA (even though the first SATA is reported first by BIOS). | 01:14 |
| wesley | freq_table 5536 2 cpufreq_stats,cpufreq_ondemand wat does this mean guys | 01:14 |
| unop | nickrud, you mean bloatware? :) | 01:14 |
| tokyoahead | hi guys... I just upgraded to 8.04 and now my laptop touchpad is basically broken. it seems the cursor jumps to the relative screen position each time I touch the touchboard, but its off by 50% to the top right, so I can never reach the lower-left corner... except with a usb mouse... | 01:15 |
| josho | unop: I'm not suggesting using regexes to parse XML, just using regexes to extract the content of a particular set of tags in a file which I've mostly written by hand and have total control over | 01:15 |
| brunner | how can I get information about the physical disks in my machine? | 01:15 |
| brunner | (it's a server, I have no GUI access) | 01:15 |
| teicah | df | 01:15 |
| unop | josho, same thing, paring xml, extracting content from xml - regexes are just not the right tools for either job. | 01:15 |
| Cpudan80 | du -sh * | 01:15 |
| josho | unop: /<tagname>([^<]+)</tagname>/ -- nothing wrong with that? | 01:15 |
| brunner | Cpudan80: wouldn't that only show mounted disks? | 01:16 |
| josho | If they get the job done in one tenth of the time, I honestly couldn't care. | 01:16 |
| unop | josho, head to perl, and ask them what is wrong with that, they'll give you 200 good reasons why that will break. | 01:16 |
| Cpudan80 | brunner: It shows the relative sizes of folders | 01:16 |
| InfernoX222 | laser88: i ran a 'tar xvvofp cowpatty-2.0.tgz' which made the cowpatty folder from there i did a 'cd cowpatty' to enter the folder and proceeded to try ./configure make ect | 01:16 |
| josho | I'm avoiding using them because this xml file will get slightly more complicated later | 01:16 |
| Danikar | When I try to install XMMS from Symnaptic it says the package is list but not there. or something. | 01:16 |
| MachinTrucChose | It may sound like a stupid question, but if I have Ubuntu, and I decide I want to use Konqueror (KDE file browser), will it use a bit more RAM (compared to a "pure" distro) because it will have the "QT framework" loaded at all times for Konqueror | 01:16 |
| Havnfun | Hi - Installed QtPatrted - When run program got following error "Could not launch menu item - Failed to execute child process "qtparted-root" (No such file or directory)" Any idea's on how to fix? | 01:16 |
| djlenoir | cky, I have already installed Ubuntu 5 times, what is one more time. :) I will go ahead and reinstall on hd2 instead of hd0 this time (hd2 is first PATA hdd) and see if the problem goes away. | 01:16 |
| josho | unop: This from the people who split their community in half over a new interpreter release. | 01:16 |
| Cpudan80 | fdisk -l would also do it | 01:16 |
| alanbshepard70 | I'm a bit nervous. I'm running 8.04 and browse the net with the included version of Firefox with the noscript add-on installed. I just visited a website and after I noticed a new launcher icon. While at the site I clicked nothing and did not give the site permission to run js. How in the heck did the launcher get there? | 01:17 |
| artint | as;l;sjdf; | 01:17 |
| brunner | I'm wanting to find out about unmounted disks as well | 01:17 |
| cky | djlenoir: Maybe. But.... | 01:17 |
| cky | djlenoir: Are your PATA and SATA drives always always going to be plugged in? | 01:17 |
| Laser88 | InfernoX222: /me is confused | 01:17 |
| Jambon | JFS, EXT3, or XFS? Anyone have an opinion? | 01:17 |
| cky | djlenoir: If so, I have a much better solution for you. | 01:17 |
| unop | josho, now you're getting personal .. | 01:17 |
| djlenoir | cky, yes, they are all internal. The computer is only for Ubuntu. | 01:17 |
| brunner | how can I tell if I have hardware RAID? | 01:18 |
| josho | unop: I'm trying not to, but I started out looking for a simple command line tool or anything with the tools I'm familiar with so that I can get my job done. | 01:18 |
| DG19075 | Has anyone experienced problems with Audacity 1.3.4 not being able to open the sound device? Backing up to 1.3.3 cures the problem, though | 01:18 |
| djlenoir | cky, I am willing to try anything you have to suggest. | 01:18 |
| MachinTrucChose | djlenoir, what's the problem? | 01:18 |
| Havnfun | Having problem running QtParted - getting error when run program? | 01:18 |
| unop | josho, xmlstarlet, xpath, xmlawk, xmlgawk, etc, etc | 01:19 |
| Shadow420 | !java | 01:19 |
| ubotu | To install a Java runtime/interpreter on Ubuntu, look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java - For the Sun Java runtime install sun-java6-jre from the !Multiverse repository (in !Backports for !Edgy) | 01:19 |
| MachinTrucChose | I just joined | 01:19 |
| cky | djlenoir: Edit /boot/grub/device.map and change it so that (hd2) maps to /dev/sda (which is your SATA drive, right?). | 01:19 |
| djlenoir | MachinTrucChose, My mixed SATA/PATA hdd computer apparently throws GRUB off. Error 22. | 01:19 |
| wesley | freq_table 5536 2 cpufreq_stats,cpufreq_ondemand can some one tell mer what this means ? | 01:19 |
| cky | djlenoir: Then edit menu.lst, change the groot to (hd2,0), and run update-grub. | 01:19 |
| DG19075 | Has anyone experienced problems with Audacity 1.3.4 not being able to open the sound device? Backing up to 1.3.3 cures the problem, though | 01:20 |
| josho | unop: I'm avoiding learning a new language, especially Python or Perl (fanboys...), and it just so happens regexes would do just fine at the moment. I'm actually experimenting with a PHP script at the moment, and foreach ($xml->config->network as $name) `wget http://example.com/$name`; is sufficient and good. | 01:20 |
| djlenoir | cky, Yes. sda is the first SATA drive that Ubuntu is currently isntalled to | 01:20 |
| Shadow420 | djenoir it's sudo update-grub | 01:20 |
| cky | MachinTrucChose: djlenoir is trying to boot a system with 2 SATA drives and 2 PATA drives. GRUB has a different notion of drive order from Linux, and quite possibly the BIOS too. | 01:20 |
| Byan | does anyone know what the program that tells you in the notification area when the package database is in use is called | 01:20 |
| MachinTrucChose | djlenoir: that error happened to me before but I can't guarantee it's for the same reasons...how old is your computer? | 01:20 |
| arvind_khadri | Byan, update-manager | 01:21 |
| MrDoug | hey im having a problem installing ubuntu mabye you can help, I got a live cd and it works and even passes the errror check, but it just will not install. I always get an input output error | 01:21 |
| djlenoir | MachinTrucChose, It is an older system by today's standards. Abit A7N8X running Athlong 3200+. | 01:21 |
| MrDoug | btw this is 8.04 AMD64 | 01:21 |
| cky | djlenoir: My hope is that my guess is right and GRUB is seeing your SATA drive as (hd2). In which case this should work. Fingers crossed. | 01:21 |
| DG19075 | Has anyone experienced problems with Audacity 1.3.4 not being able to open the sound device? Backing up to 1.3.3 cures the problem, though | 01:21 |
| MachinTrucChose | cky: perhaps his BIOS will let him change the order of drives when booting, too | 01:22 |
| Byan | arvind_khadri: alright, removed =) | 01:22 |
| cky | MachinTrucChose: I certainly hope so, that would make life a lot simpler. :-) | 01:22 |
| cg91 | hey i have a dell 1450 wireless usb adaptor and cant' get my internet working.. caN anyone help me? i'm using ubuntu 8.4 | 01:22 |
| Shadow420 | MrDoug what type of coumputer u have Intel Core 2 or is it an older amd64 processor | 01:22 |
| MrDoug | amd64 | 01:22 |
| arvind_khadri | Byan, what did you remove??? | 01:22 |
| CJS3141 | DG19075: Yes, I've had lots of problems with Audacity 1.3.4 and had to move back to the stable 1.2.5 (or something like that) version. | 01:22 |
| jrabbit | I'm having issues installing ubuntu in Vmware | 01:22 |
| Byan | arvind_khadri: update-managere | 01:22 |
| djlenoir | MachinTrucChose, I will check to see what the boot order options are in bios first. brb | 01:22 |
| MrDoug | jrabbit: just use wubi | 01:23 |
| arvind_khadri | Byan, remove as in uninstall | 01:23 |
| Byan | arvind_khadri: .. yes | 01:23 |
| jrabbit | MrDoug: LOL | 01:23 |
| LainIwakura | Hello, can someone tell me where my files paths are stored? It's not in xorg.conf | 01:23 |
| hotmonkeyluv | is xmms not supported on hardy x64? | 01:23 |
| arvind_khadri | Byan, how did you do that?? | 01:23 |
| jrabbit | MrDoug: I'd jsut do a proper install | 01:23 |
| LainIwakura | sorry i meant *FONT PATHS | 01:23 |
| cg91 | when i check using the console, my wlan0 says that the "ESSID: off/any" | 01:23 |
| jrabbit | I can't seem to get the netowrking to work anyone gotten it to run? | 01:23 |
| Byan | arvind_khadri: sudo apt-get remove update-manager | 01:23 |
| cg91 | when i check using the console, my wlan0 says that the "ESSID: off/any" what does this mean and how do i fix it? | 01:23 |
| MachinTrucChose | I know in my case after installing Ubuntu, the computer wouldn't boot even though the drive it was installed on was first in the order list. I had to put it last, and then it finally booted. Oh, Gigabyte and your buggy BIOS:/ | 01:23 |
| arvind_khadri | Byan, ok so you want to get it back?? | 01:23 |
| Laser88 | hotmonkeyluv: xmms is not in hardy anymore | 01:23 |
| wesley | freq_table 5536 2 cpufreq_stats,cpufreq_ondemand can some one tell mer what this means ? | 01:23 |
| Byan | arvind_khadri: ... no.. nvm.. | 01:23 |
| LainIwakura | When I type "xset q" it tells me that config file is in/etc/X11/xorg.conf, yet there are no font paths in that file? | 01:24 |
| hotmonkeyluv | Laser88: Do you know why not? | 01:24 |
| arvind_khadri | Byan, ok | 01:24 |
| Shadow420 | MrDoug hmm I don't know that much about 64-bit the I/O error could be anything | 01:24 |
| cg91 | can someone PLEASE help me get my networking set up? I can't use my computer until it works.. i wiped windows | 01:24 |
| cg91 | when i check using the console, my wlan0 says that the "ESSID: off/any" what does this mean and how do i fix it? | 01:24 |
| Laser88 | hotmonkeyluv: diffeerent reasons, but u can install it anyway | 01:24 |
| cky | LainIwakura: It sounds like some of it is built in to the X server, it seems to appear when you run strings on the X server. | 01:24 |
| fouad | Laser88 , I use to love xmms ...any suggestion to replace it ? | 01:24 |
| cky | LainIwakura: I agree it's most odd though. | 01:24 |
| Havnfun | When I run a program from Alt-F2 - how can I run it as sudo - place sudo before name of program? | 01:24 |
| MrDoug | shadow: im downloading the alternative disc now any chance that will make a diffrence | 01:24 |
| hotmonkeyluv | Laser88: compile and all that fun stuff? | 01:24 |
| Shadow420 | Havefun yes | 01:25 |
| cg91 | can ANYONE help with networking? | 01:25 |
| cky | LainIwakura: Actually this behaviour is documented in xorg.conf(5). Heh. | 01:25 |
| cg91 | (wireless) | 01:25 |
| Shadow420 | MrDoug it might | 01:25 |
| Laser88 | fouad: hotmonkeyluv: u have to add a foreign source to your sources.list | 01:25 |
| LainIwakura | cky: I just added some fonts in .font. Where can I add this font path permanently into the X server's XF86 file? | 01:25 |
| cky | LainIwakura: Namely that if there are no FontPath lines, a built-in list of defaults is used. | 01:25 |
| danbhfive | cg91: I can try, erm, why dont you set the essid? | 01:25 |
| fouad | oh I see | 01:25 |
| robert__ | does anyone know how to make vlc the default dvd player in ubuntu hardy heron? | 01:25 |
| fouad | thnx | 01:25 |
| cg91 | how do i do that danbhfive, and thank you? | 01:25 |
| LainIwakura | cky: But 'xset q" does list a set of font paths, or are those defaults? | 01:26 |
| cky | LainIwakura: Just add a section called "Files", then put FontPath lines into it. | 01:26 |
| cky | LainIwakura: Those are defaults. | 01:26 |
| LainIwakura | cky: Into xorg.conf? | 01:26 |
| danbhfive | cg91: iwconfig -essid xxxxxxx I think | 01:26 |
| cky | LainIwakura: Yes. | 01:26 |
| Laser88 | fouad: hotmonkeyluv: deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/punischdude/ubuntu hardy main deb-src http://ppa.launchpad.net/punischdude/ubuntu hardy main | 01:26 |
| MrDoug | Shadow: also, wine wont install is that just cause im using livecd or might it be somthing else | 01:26 |
| LainIwakura | cky: Now do I also need to include the default paths? THanks for your help. | 01:26 |
| cg91 | i'll try that and then come back. i think itll give an error | 01:26 |
| cky | LainIwakura: Save your current FontPath list for reference, but I do think you need to add them in your xorg.conf too. Try and see. | 01:27 |
| InfernoX222 | unop: i sent you a pm | 01:27 |
| unop | LainIwakura, you can add font paths using xset fp .. there really is no need to edit files | 01:27 |
| Shadow420 | MrDoug or your live cd iso could have went bad during download it's possible | 01:27 |

| unop | cky, it sure is a matter of personal preference, i tend to prefer doing something that does not require you make changes to the system or things that affect all users, that way, if something should go wrong, it's easier to troubleshoot and repair being logged on as another user | 01:31 |

| Laser88 | hotmonkeyluv: yeah - still winamp a hundred years ago :-) | 01:31 |
| djlenoir | MachinTrucChose, Checked my BIOS and tested changing a couple of settings. Neither worked. One was boot order for SCSI/SATA. Have it set to SATA first, then SCSI. I also tried changing boot first device from HDD-0 to HDD-2 without success. | 01:32 |
| hotmonkeyluv | Laser88: lol | 01:32 |
| cg91 | danbhfive: do u know the syntax? | 01:32 |

| bigtimer121 | IndyGunFreak: I have to install a wireless driver. how do i do that? | 01:32 |
| Shadow420 | MrDoug are you running a windows install as well? | 01:32 |

| IndyGunFreak | bigtimer121: i have no experience w/ broadcom, other than i know its a pain | 01:33 |

| ashbringer | I just upgraded to Hardy, but to do so I had to remove nvidia-glx-new. After the upgrade, when I tried to enable the driver again, X threw a fit about the kernel API not matching the driver. Apparently I have the kernel module for nvidia-glx-legacy, but nothing I've done seems to change that, and now I can't even get into an nv setup. Could anyone assist me? | 01:34 |
| unop | donkeyofdimness, that's a subjective view and doesn't really help. | 01:34 |
| djlenoir | cky, If you do not mind helping still, I would like to try out your idea. I have all the BIOS settings back to their original settings now. I temporarily disabled the two PATA drives in BIOS so I can boot into Ubuntu. | 01:34 |
| bulazeem | anyone know what i can do for my external hard drive? it stays powered up when i shut down my pc. the only way to turn it off is to remove the power cord and that is hard the way that my desk is :( | 01:34 |

| Laser88 | littlerhody: no, i can't, but just ask | 01:34 |

| shree_ | shane2peru, freeswitch and telepathy gabble are only the framework, | 01:51 |
| cky | djlenoir: But, wait, it did work with no PATA drives. Let me rethink that. | 01:51 |
| salcho | i'm installing ubuntu 7.04 but it can't install grub con hd0. my HD is mounted on /dev/sda, shall I install it in (sda) then? (the grub) | 01:51 |
| aphan9 | wow, thanks for the help everyone, didnt know i would get this much help; however, the problem is i'm trying to connect to the internet on my computer, however it can only do it via wireless | 01:51 |
| Laser88 | bulazeem: when the pc is shutdown, the usb devices are not mounted - u can remove them | 01:51 |
| djlenoir | cky: It recognizes the drives fine. I had 7.10 running on this same system for months. It appears that 8.04 does not like it as much though. | 01:51 |
| erealz | yea | 01:51 |
| shree_ | shane2peru, jabbin doesnt support amd64 | 01:51 |

| shane2peru | shree_, I really don't know much about google talk, I don't use it, I was just surprised there was such a thing | 01:51 |
| adam_ | #maemo | 01:52 |
| aphan9 | its too far away from router for a cable to reach to it | 01:52 |
| erealz | I mean I can see it locally on my box | 01:52 |
| shree_ | shane2peru, hmmm | 01:52 |
| cky | bigtimer121: No, sorry. I wish you good luck, but from the sounds of things the system did not detect your wireless at all. Just for my curiosity, which model of laptop do you have? It sounds like an HP/Compaq model where you had to use noapic. | 01:52 |
| nith | salcho: grub needs to be on your master drive, if sda is your master drive, then yes | 01:52 |
| bulazeem | Laser88 my hard drive stays on and it's in a really hard spot to remove. would it cause any harm to just leave it on all the time? | 01:52 |
| erealz | according to nmap aport 80 is open | 01:52 |
| cky | djlenoir: Ah!! | 01:52 |
| SpookyET | How do you make Hardy look like Gutsy to the update manager to force it to update again? | 01:52 |
| LainIwakura | unop: I don't have a .bash_profile nor do I know how to add an xset command. Is there an easier way to have my session from xset fp+ everytime I restart X? | 01:52 |
| salcho | bulazeem: thx, i'll try it now | 01:52 |
| arvind_khadri | salcho, are you having winodws too | 01:52 |
| DistroJockey | djlenoir: does your /etc/fstab list those PATA drives? If so, comment them out. (should help) | 01:52 |
| amenado | aphan9-> can you elaborate on your network layout? | 01:52 |
| shree_ | shane2peru, A quick question,Do you type out my name everytime you reply to me | 01:52 |
| danbhfive | SpookyET: I can through some commands at ya | 01:53 |
| salcho | sorry, not bulazeem but nith | 01:53 |
| unop | LainIwakura, use ~/.bashrc | 01:53 |
| salcho | xD | 01:53 |
| black_13 | is there a graphical tool to configure eth0 | 01:53 |
| djlenoir | DistroJockey: I will check and try that | 01:53 |
| bigtimer121 | cky: you have guessed right. its a shitty compaq presario v6000 | 01:53 |
| shane2peru | shree_, first three letters then tab. :) | 01:53 |
| nith | SpookyET: the answer is /etc/apt/sources.list but I'd heavily advise against it | 01:53 |
| thenetduck | can anyone here help me get my mic working/ | 01:53 |

| ole | Hi. I have been trying to figure out how to automate the answer of the Ubuntu 8.04 installation without success. Is it possible to automate these questions with preseed files? | 01:53 |
| thenetduck | working? | 01:53 |
| unop | LainIwakura, or ~/.profile ( you can create these it if it doesn't exist ) | 01:53 |
| shree_ | shane2peru: cool | 01:53 |
| erealz | my router alredy had an http service forwarding in the menue so I I dout it the router | 01:53 |
| bigtimer121 | cky: :( | 01:53 |
| SpookyET | danbhfive: i modified lsb-release and the meta stuff | 01:53 |
| bmk789_ | is there any reasonable way to setup a compute cluster in ubuntu? | 01:53 |
| SpookyET | nith: broken update | 01:53 |
| shree_ | shane2peru: i have been trynig all day long | 01:53 |
| cky | djlenoir: Hey, did you get around to rerunning grub-install? I think from the error message it can't even find menu.lst yet.... | 01:53 |
| amenado | !who | 01:53 |

| cky | bigtimer121: Bummer. :-( | 01:53 |
| LainIwakura | unop: Do I simply add the line "xset fp+ $HOME/.fonts" anywhere? | 01:53 |
| shree_ | shane2peru: never caught up with a solution | 01:53 |
| danbhfive | SpookyET: well, thats over my head, I was going to suggest some apt-get commands | 01:54 |
| unop | LainIwakura, sure, on a line of it's own tho | 01:54 |
| shree_ | shane2peru: there is actually solution for GNOME | 01:54 |
| Laser88 | bulazeem: normally it doesn't harm a hard drive - anyway better than turning on and off a lot of times. But there should be a solution *thinking* | 01:54 |
| xyzpaw | i still cant get my bluetooth mouse connected. Keeps giving me the error: Couldn't display "obex:/ | 01:54 |
| LainIwakura | unop: Thank you. | 01:54 |
| shree_ | shane2peru: but i dont want to install gnome too | 01:54 |
| nith | SpookyET: good luck. the update managers all use /etc/apt/sources.list where to look. then do a "sudo aptitude update" to grab the newest list | 01:54 |
| frankg | just installed off of cd -- then did sudo apt-get upgrade -- it didn't download anything - does that sound right? | 01:54 |
| the_darkside_986 | is anyone else using single-core processor with Hardy and noticing a crippling lag of everything in the system? | 01:54 |
| shane2peru | shree_, for googletalk, hmm, sorry as I said, I really don't know anything about it, and I"m a gnomer. :) | 01:54 |
| xyzpaw | i still cant get my bluetooth mouse connected. It keeps giving me the error: Couldn't display "obex:/ | 01:54 |
| aphan9 | i have a two computers, one(XP) next to router downstairs and one(Ubuntu) in my bedroom upstairs plus a laptop | 01:54 |
| shree_ | shane2peru: do you have any idea how i can install the gnome app in kde | 01:54 |
| SpookyET | ninth: they use more than that | 01:54 |
| thenetduck | any takers? | 01:55 |
| SpookyET | nith: I'll need the old one | 01:55 |
| aphan9 | amenado, i have a two computers, one(XP) next to router downstairs and one(Ubuntu) in my bedroom upstairs plus a laptop | 01:55 |
| arvind_khadri | shree_, for google talk use pidgin :) | 01:55 |
| shane2peru | I think using adept you should be able to install them, using gnome apps in KDE and vice versa is fine. | 01:55 |
| nith | SpookyET: I don't understand | 01:55 |
| shree_ | shane2peru: well, that supports only IM | 01:55 |
| cky | shree_: You need to install the GNOME libraries to run GNOME apps. But you don't need to install GNOME. :-P It's like needing to install KDE libraries to run KDE apps, without having to install KDE in its entirety. | 01:55 |
| shree_ | shane2peru: that wsa my prev try | 01:55 |
| xyzpaw | ive upgraded to 8.04 i still cant get my bluetooth mouse connected. It keeps giving me the error: Couldn't display "obex:/ | 01:55 |
| thenetduck | just one mic .. . | 01:55 |
| chdst | When installing Hardy using the amd64 alternate CD, CD Verification fails. I've burnt two for good measure, each from an md5sum verified iso. I am unable to install as a result. | 01:55 |
| arvind_khadri | shree_, for installing kde apps jus enable universe and sudo apt-get install appname | 01:55 |
| Laser88 | bulazeem: butz never thought of that, as I'm using a multiple plug that disconnects all power when the PC is shutdown (excuse my English) | 01:55 |
| thenetduck | I need to get my mic working.. I am using a lenovo think pad | 01:56 |
| tgm4883_laptop | can anyone help me get the ati driver (open source) to do an external monitor | 01:56 |
| shane2peru | shree_, hmm, not sure that I can be of much help. sorry. | 01:56 |
| djlenoir | cky: I did not run grub-install. | 01:56 |
| SpookyET | nith: Upgrade failed. I need to run the update-manager again. Therefore I need it to think it's gutsy running. | 01:56 |
| cky | chdst: Did you MD5 verify the burnt CD afterwards? | 01:56 |
| thenetduck | does anyone know or have a mic and know how I can get this working | 01:56 |
| xyzpaw | ive upgraded to 8.04 i still cant get my bluetooth mouse connected. It keeps giving me the error: "Couldn't display "obex:/" | 01:56 |
| LainIwakura | f/exit | 01:56 |
| chdst | cky: Yep | 01:56 |
| chdst | cky: Both of them, in fact. :) | 01:56 |
| cky | djlenoir: It's worth a try, But, pastebin me the contents of your device.map, first. | 01:56 |
| danbhfive | SpookyET: well, I think I'm gona sign off actually, unless you want my help, Im off | 01:56 |
| shree_ | shane2peru: someone else ont this channel should me help me get that gnome appl,ication installed on my kde | 01:56 |
| xyzpaw | ive upgraded to 8.04 i still cant get my bluetooth mouse connected. It keeps giving me the error: "Couldn't display "obex:/" | 01:56 |
| djlenoir | cky: The changes we made took effect though because it said drive does not exist when I tried to boot this time. Had to edit the boot option to 0,0 to boot | 01:56 |
| SpookyET | danbhfive: i don't | 01:56 |
| shree_ | shane2peru: i have not tried that so far | 01:56 |
| arvind_khadri | shree_, i can!!! | 01:56 |
| shree_ | arvind_khadri: thanks man | 01:56 |
| bulazeem | Laser88 maybe i should do the same. your english is fine, i just appreciate the help | 01:57 |
| nith | SpookyET: right, but the sources file between gutsy and hardy only differ by those words, they're hosted in the same place as far as I know | 01:57 |
| xyzpaw | ive upgraded to 8.04 i still cant get my bluetooth mouse connected. It keeps giving me the error: "Couldn't display "obex:/" | 01:57 |
| arvind_khadri | shree_, i have been screaming from that time :) | 01:57 |
| cky | chdst: Geez. :-( | 01:57 |
| nith | SpookyET: that said, just edit /etc/apt/sources.list and change all instances of "hardy" to gutsy. Alternatively, you could just try to update again | 01:57 |
| SpookyET | nith: more files are modified though. /etc/lsb-release some stuff in /var | 01:57 |
| arvind_khadri | shree_, ok so you want to use gtalk?? | 01:57 |
| xyzpaw | ive upgraded to 8.04 i still cant get my bluetooth mouse connected. It keeps giving me the error: "Couldn't display "obex:/" | 01:57 |

| the_darkside_986 | I'm having a troublesome clean install of Hardy heron. is anyone else using single-core processor with Hardy and noticing a crippling lag of everything in the system? | 01:57 |
| cky | djlenoir: Oh! So 0,0 _does_ work! Okay, so you can revert the changes to menu.lst (and re-run update-grub) then. | 01:57 |
| Laser88 | bulazeem: easiest way | 01:57 |
| nith | SpookyET: I'd advise trying to update again long before trying to revert. I've no clue how any of the tools will handle that | 01:58 |
| cky | djlenoir: This is what gets interesting. GRUB has three loaders, stage1, stage1.5, and stage2. Trying to work out how each stage maps drives is tricky. | 01:58 |
| shree_ | arvind_khadri: yes i want to have gtalk kinda voice chat on my kde | 01:58 |
| shree_ | arvind_khadri: have u tried this b4 | 01:58 |
| Jack_Sparrow | the_darkside_986 disable all effects and see if it doesnt come back to life | 01:58 |
| cky | djlenoir: The menu.lst is used by stage2. So obviously stage2 does get the drive mapping "right". | 01:58 |
| djlenoir | cky: Well 0,0 does work as long as the two PATA drives are disabled. | 01:58 |
| AmyRose | Is there a splash screen in Hardy's GNOME? | 01:58 |
| Laser88 | the_darkside_986: not at all - hardy is faster than feisty | 01:58 |
| djlenoir | cky: it is showing 1.5 | 01:58 |
| cky | djlenoir: Ah, of course, sorry. | 01:58 |
| ienorand | Whatt's the thing that handles mounting from the fstab config?? | 01:58 |
| arvind_khadri | shree_, well see in GNOME AFAIK no client has voice support ... | 01:58 |
| djlenoir | cky: where the error is occuring | 01:59 |
| === nith is now known as Nith | ||
| SpookyET | nith: It's not the sources file. THere is some file that tells the manager it's running gutsy. I need to modify that | 01:59 |
| shree_ | what about Landell, Ereseva | 01:59 |
| arvind_khadri | shree_, and in KDE kopete supports it,teah | 01:59 |
| shree_ | arvind_khadri: | 01:59 |
| tgm4883_laptop | are there any known bugs with the open source ati driver and dual monitors? | 01:59 |
| the_darkside_986 | well, I have compiz disabled and I am even killing trackerd. but everything is still painfully laggy | 01:59 |
| cky | djlenoir: I have realised that, eventually. :-P So yes, any fixes have to happen via grub-install, not via menu.lst. | 01:59 |
| shree_ | arvind_khadri: ok to put it in place you say that kopete supports voice chat | 01:59 |
| shree_ | arvind_khadri: rite | 01:59 |
| arvind_khadri | shree_, yeah | 01:59 |
| Cey22 | I have a serious problem. When I try to choose Ubuntu when booting up my PC, it brings me into "Busybox" and gives me some commands. I think I installed something wrong, and just want to get back into Ubuntu | 01:59 |
| Laser88 | the_darkside_986: what says top? | 02:00 |
| arvind_khadri | shree_, not sure as am a GNOMER | 02:00 |
| Nith | SpookyET: If that's true then your issue is long above me. I've never heard of any file that says which version of ubuntu except the sources | 02:00 |
| cky | djlenoir: Apparently there is a way to prepare a GRUB floppy (if your computer has a floppy drive) so that it can have the same view of your drive mapping as the stage1.5. | 02:00 |
| plinde | can anyone explain the difference between relatime and noatime? i read in the wiki for the eeepc that you should use noatime to preserve the SSD. but noatime crippled my machine. i went back to relatime and its fast again | 02:00 |
| AgentHeX | i can't get any addons to work with Firefox 2.0 in hardy | 02:00 |
| cky | You can then use the GRUB floppy to update your hard drive's partition table. | 02:00 |
| shree_ | arvind_khadri: i dont see a option to go o na voice chat in my kopete | 02:00 |
| azuki | I suppose then when upgrading to hardy it will keep my settings?.. (e.g. desktop & mount files | 02:00 |
| azuki | ) | 02:00 |
| Cey22 | neither 'exit' nor 'quit' will get me out of busybox | 02:00 |
| azuki | ? | 02:00 |
| SpookyET | Nith: /etc/lsb-release for one | 02:00 |
| AmyRose | shree_: Try #kubuntu | 02:00 |
| cky | djlenoir: You can then use the GRUB floppy to update your hard drive's MBR, rather. :-P | 02:00 |
| arvind_khadri | shree_, oh ok ... try the help option in that | 02:00 |
| Laser88 | AgentHeX: sry, but ff2 is running out... | 02:00 |
| chdst | cky: Also memtested in the freakishly remote chance that I was being lied to on the MD5. Some more info, though...the installer complains that it can't find a particular file. In the installer environment, as well as right now in a working OS, I can see that file and as best as my eyes can diff it appears to be the same file the installer's asking for. Anyways, I'll keep poking at it. | 02:00 |
| crdlb | the_darkside_986: do you have xserver-xgl installed? | 02:00 |
| ienorand | What's the package/process that handles mounting according to the fstab config, specifically for NTFS? | 02:00 |
| shree_ | AmyRose: kubuntu, i am using kubuntu | 02:01 |
| cky | chdst: *nods* How bizarre.... | 02:01 |
| shree_ | AmyRose: rasther kubuntu-desktop | 02:01 |
| alphakamp | Anyone try installing the demo for Penumbra | 02:01 |
| alphakamp | ?? | 02:01 |
| AgentHeX | Laser88: i'm aware of this, but i will use FF2 until they fix the god-awful fonts in FF3 beta | 02:01 |
| shree_ | arvind_khadri: help option in?? | 02:01 |
| cky | ienorand: ntfs-3g | 02:01 |
| Kilgariff | I just set up a uShare server for my PS3, does anyone know of a client I could use on my Ubuntu PC to play the media? | 02:01 |
| arvind_khadri | shree_, in kopete | 02:01 |
| the_darkside_986 | what does xserver-xgl do exactly? also the kinit startup is very slow as well | 02:01 |
| the_darkside_986 | i've got nvidia drivers enabled | 02:02 |
| AmyRose | shree_: I'm asking you to try going to the Kubuntu channel by typing /join #kubuntu | 02:02 |
| shree_ | arvind_khadri: i am looking through it | 02:02 |
| arvind_khadri | shree_, :) | 02:02 |
| cky | djlenoir: I'm trying to see how to prepare one of those things, but it's tedious, hence if running grub-install with the right device.map works, that will save you some work. | 02:02 |
| crdlb | the_darkside_986: it is used to make compiz run on hardware whose drivers don't natively support it | 02:02 |
| Laser88 | AgentHeX: awful fonts? I use my own fonts... | 02:02 |
| crdlb | the_darkside_986: if you have it installed, uninstall it | 02:02 |
| shree_ | AmyRose: thanks for that idea. i will try that | 02:02 |
| ienorand | cky: right, and if I have options like: UUID=42901B26901B2049 /media/hda1 ntfs defaults,umask=027,gid=46 0 1 | 02:02 |
| the_darkside_986 | it is not installed already | 02:02 |
| AgentHeX | Laser88: the fonts in FF3 are huge and screw up alignment on a lot of web pages | 02:02 |
| Laser88 | AgentHeX: but that's not the solution to your question, I know | 02:03 |
| ienorand | cky: nobody should be able to write but root? | 02:03 |
| yoursfaithfully | AgentHeX: do you have any example pages? I'd like to see this. | 02:03 |

| cky | djlenoir: Okay, so making a GRUB floppy isn't all that tedious: http://www.gnu.org/software/grub/grub-legacy-faq.en.html#q4 | 02:03 |

| XceII | wrong room | 02:04 |
| vpalle | jrib, thx | 02:04 |
| the_darkside_986 | i think there is something wrong with this version of the kernel... the whole system is slow, not just Xorg. Gutsy wasn't like this. Even the hardy CD wasn't like this. i don't think it is a hard drive problem because XP works the same as it always did. | 02:04 |
| djlenoir | cky: Just verified that the PATA drives were not listed in /etc/fstab. They are not listed. I will try grub-install and see if that helps. Will is help if the PATA drives are not currently enabled though? I am not sure I can do it if I can't enable those drives. | 02:04 |
| Amiub | Ola | 02:04 |
| yns88 | Hey, I'm running the Hardy Heron beta and I'm having trouble accessing updates | 02:04 |
| yoursfaithfully | AgentHeX: the main page looks fine to me, running FF3 | 02:04 |
| yns88 | I keep getting (111 Connection Refused) when I do apt-get update | 02:04 |
| arvind_khadri | the_darkside_986, use the new one from kernel.org | 02:04 |
| XceII | lol ainus | 02:04 |
| djlenoir | cky: Got the link, thanks. I will try that next if the grub-install does not help. | 02:04 |
| cky | djlenoir: Okay then, then make a GRUB floppy, enable the PATA drives, and give it a whirl. | 02:05 |
| Laser88 | http://www.okcupid.com looks great in ff3 | 02:05 |
| jrib | yns88: try a mirror | 02:05 |
| ienorand | cky: so should it say "..._ntfs-3g_ defaults,umask=027..." instead? | 02:05 |
| alanbshepard70 | first off if I'm asking this in the wrong place forgive me and please correct me. If I right click an archive and choose the encrypt option and encrypt the file with a key I generated previously can the file only be decrypted by me on this machine? What I'm really wanting to know is if I have to reinstall ubuntu and want to decrypt a file I had created and encrypted on a previous install will I be sucessful? | 02:05 |
| yns88 | jrib: what command would I use for that? | 02:05 |
| LainIwakura | Hello, many of the files in my $HOME directory or ~/ are owned by root. How did this happen and how do I prevent this from happening in the future? If I sudo nano a file in $HOME, does it become owned by root? Thanks for your help. | 02:05 |
| cky | ienorand: Yes. And yes, the umask should work too. | 02:05 |
| arpu | hi | 02:05 |
| Jack_Sparrow | XceII Please dont do that | 02:05 |
| jrib | yns88: system -> adiministration -> software sources, look for the option about mirrors | 02:05 |
| shree_ | arvind_khadri: hey arvind, there doesnt seem any help over there too | 02:05 |

| arpu | how can i fix this ? *** PULSEAUDIO: Unable to connect: Connection refused | 02:05 |
| cky | ienorand: You need to have the ntfs-3g package installed too. But the manpage seems to think that will work. | 02:05 |
| ole | Hi. Does anyone know who to use the answer from a Ubuntu installation to automate further installations? I have tried creating a preseeding file but I haven't figured out what exactly to but in it. I tried using the "debconf-get-selections --installer" but it returned an error. Anyone have a suggestion? | 02:05 |
| shree_ | arvind_khadri: in the kubuntu channel, i have been told that it is not possible currently | 02:05 |
| arpu | firefox beta 3 ubuntu hardy | 02:05 |
| shree_ | arvind_khadri: but can be done by installing the gnome app | 02:06 |
| arvind_khadri | shree_, yah thats true as i know of no client that supports vioce chat | 02:06 |
| towlie | has anyone had problems when upgrading from gutsy to hardy ? | 02:06 |
| XceII | I apologize | 02:06 |
| arpu | /etc/init.d/pulseaudio restart does not help | 02:06 |
| jrib | LainIwakura: you shouldn't need to sudo anything when using files in your ~ | 02:06 |
| arvind_khadri | shree_, which one?? | 02:06 |
| Jack_Sparrow | np | 02:06 |
| Laser88 | LainIwakura: never do anything as root in your home - the owner will be root | 02:06 |

| jrib | towlie: you'll probably get more help if you ask a more specific question or state your problem exactly | 02:06 |
| LainIwakura | jrib: Okay, thanks. | 02:06 |
| shree_ | arvind_khadri: the ladnell, ereseva options | 02:07 |
| yoursfaithfully | towlie: The only problem I had was that my patched MadWifi driver needed to be reinstalled. Fortunately, I kept the patched source, and it was quite simple to reinstall. | 02:07 |
| LainIwakura | Laser88: Thank you. | 02:07 |
| Cey22 | AgentHex: then hold down alt and scroll out | 02:07 |
| towlie | jrib i dont know where to begin with problems ive experienced since upgrading to hardy | 02:07 |
| ienorand | cky: yea, I was able to unmount an mount through ntfs-3g using that, and get my permissions sorted. But do I have to change it to ntfs-3g to get it working on boot? | 02:07 |
| arvind_khadri | shree_, never heard of it :p | 02:07 |
| arvind_khadri | shree_, lemme check it out | 02:07 |
| cky | ienorand: I believe so. | 02:07 |
| jrib | towlie: start with the one that's the most important to you | 02:07 |
| * flyback would like to thank everyone who has been a good friend to him over the yrs' | 02:07 | |

| jrib | towlie: do you understand what I mean by "specific"? | 02:08 |
| yoursfaithfully | towlie: Do you have an ATI video card? | 02:08 |
| Laser88 | AgentHeX: strg + - for minor fonts or strg + 0 for normal fonts | 02:08 |

| the_darkside_986 | Is Ubuntu Hardy stuck with the same kernel for the next 6 months? I can't make any sense of this kernel.org site, I need massive 100+ MB kernels not "patches" | 02:08 |
| ienorand | cky: right... odd thing that it worked in Gutsy but not in Hardy... don't remeber fstab having "ntfs-3g" there then... | 02:08 |
| yoursfaithfully | towlie: I believe some ATI card drivers have been "blacklisted" in Heron - that might be the problem | 02:08 |
| yns88 | jrib: There are still two packages that refuse to download no matter what source I choose | 02:09 |
| towlie | jrib the graphics are glitchy where i see diaganol lines | 02:09 |
| jrib | yns88: pastebin the errors | 02:09 |
| arvind_khadri | shree_, whats the package name | 02:09 |
| Laser88 | AgentHeX: the key "strg" on your keyboard | 02:09 |
| chdst | Just did this jobbie again: `md5sum -c md5sum.txt | grep -v 'OK$'`, and yet the ubuntu installer thinks it's not a good CD. I'm so confused. | 02:09 |
| jrib | towlie: ask the channel, I don't about that | 02:09 |
| Turbo | Hey there, I'm trying to get my WLan working in Hardy. But I can't access the restricted drivers manager because hardy freezes all the time... So can I add the res. driver manually? | 02:09 |
| Laser88 | and at the same time "-" or "0" | 02:09 |
| cky | ienorand: Funny you mention that. It seems /sbin/mount.ntfs and /sbin/mount.ntfs-3g both link to the same file. :-P | 02:09 |
| panfist | i'm trying to add a custom context menu item with Nautilus Actions...if it's not working right where would the error output go? | 02:09 |
| AgentHeX | laser88: uh... *looks for strg key* is that next to the "any" key? | 02:09 |
| Jack_Sparrow | the_darkside_986 kernels come out as needed,working and tested... If you have special needs then you can compile your own. | 02:09 |
| yns88 | jrib: http://pastebin.com/d4859cc25 | 02:09 |
| crdlb | AgentHeX: ctrl | 02:09 |
| AgentHeX | crdlb: i know. i'm messing with him | 02:10 |
| cky | ienorand: So in that case, ntfs will work just fine too. But as a habit, I use ntfs-3g because then I'm certain that I'm using the 3g driver. | 02:10 |
| jrib | chdst: you aren't checking the md5sum of the cd, your checking it for the .iso you download. The burn may have created errors | 02:10 |
| cky | ienorand: "driver" meant in a very loose sense. :-P | 02:10 |
| Turbo | Hey there, I'm trying to get my WLan working in Hardy. But I can't access the restricted drivers manager because hardy freezes all the time... So can I add the res. driver manually? | 02:10 |
| Laser88 | AgentHeX: u know? is there a difference to German keyboards? | 02:10 |
| jrib | yns88: why is packages.dfreer.org in your repository list? | 02:10 |
| ienorand | cky: right, gonna test with 3g then, know if it's possible to do some "light" reboot, to test things like this? | 02:10 |
| AgentHeX | Laser88: yep. | 02:11 |
| crdlb | towlie: please pastebin your /var/log/Xorg.0.log | 02:11 |
| Turbo | Is this question right in this channel? | 02:11 |
| chdst | jrib: I'm running this for files on the burned CD, not the ISO. | 02:11 |
| shree_ | arvind_khadri: i think it si landell or ereseva | 02:11 |
| yns88 | I'm not sure | 02:11 |
| arvind_khadri | shree_, the package is in a development stat | 02:11 |
| jrib | chdst: not with the command you pasted | 02:11 |
| cky | Sure. Just umount the device, then mount it again. Using only the name specified in /dev/fstab. | 02:11 |
| Laser88 | ctrl is the arrow up - below that | 02:11 |
| === bmk789_ is now known as bmk789 | ||
| arvind_khadri | shree_, the package name is ereseva | 02:11 |
| djlenoir | cky: Is this correct to run grub-install? sudo grub-install hda | 02:11 |
| chdst | jrib: The command I pasted has no context, you're making an assumption. | 02:11 |
| ienorand | ah, simplistic.... | 02:11 |
| cky | ienorand: Sure. Just umount the device, then mount it again. Using only the name specified in /dev/fstab. (i.e., without using -t or -o or anything else) | 02:11 |
| jrib | chdst: I am. | 02:11 |
| shree_ | is it the same about landell | 02:12 |
| amenado | Turbo-> your new install is freezing all the time? | 02:12 |
| jrib | chdst: you should probably try burning it at 2x | 02:12 |
| yns88 | actually, thanks for pointing that out, jrib. It was something I was trying to install earlier that was screwing all this up | 02:12 |
| cky | djlenoir: I think you can try "grub-install '(hd2)'" or "grub-install /dev/sda" | 02:12 |
| davelee | mornin | 02:12 |
| * calc wonders if the freezing people are seeing is due to bad network drivers of some sort | 02:12 | |
| davelee | say | 02:12 |
| Cey22 | I have a serious problem. When I try to choose Ubuntu when booting up my PC, it brings me into "Busybox" and gives me some commands. I think I installed something wrong, and just want to get back into Ubuntu | 02:13 |
| nibsa1242b_ | can anyone help me figure out how to record audio from a Mic (in Hardy)? I can't figure out why when I press the record button in various applications (like Audacity) I get no sound. | 02:13 |
| davelee | I've just upgraded to Heron 8.04 and can't get audio running | 02:13 |
| XceII | theguyfromboston.com says Ubuntu Rocks | 02:13 |
| djlenoir | cky: Ok thanks. | 02:13 |
| davelee | alsactl shows no devices | 02:13 |
| pen | anyone get the avant-window-navigator update yet? | 02:13 |
| davelee | (worked on 7.10) | 02:13 |

| davelee | i have an intel onboard ac97 thingo | 02:13 |
| shangoob | Firefox 3.0b5 a memory hog - anyone else share this experience? | 02:13 |
| arvind_khadri | shree_, ok lets set installing it | 02:13 |
| davelee | ff3 is supposed to fix the memory leak FF was famous for | 02:13 |
| davelee | should use less memory | 02:13 |
| Turbo | amenado: it's not the install that freezes, it's installed, but as soon as I click on a icon in the menu... | 02:13 |
| calc | shangoob: seems less so than ff2, but it has always been a hog IMHO | 02:13 |
| davelee | so | 02:14 |
| larson9999 | shangoob, then you'll REALLY hate ff2 | 02:14 |
| davelee | can anyone gimme some ideas? | 02:14 |
| chdst | jrib: This CD has passed verification at every level, including an md5sum verification of the files on the burnt CD against the included record of known good md5sums. How will burning slower fix my problem? | 02:14 |
| twinkie_addict | run opra ? | 02:14 |
| calc | shangoob: i've seen FF2 use over 1GB ram | 02:14 |
| ienorand | cky: hm, so I just do "sudo mount/dev/hda1 /media/hda1 then? | 02:14 |
| punzada | ff3b5 works fine for me, and seems much more responsive, it'll randomly kill itself when loading certain flash content though ;x | 02:14 |
| shangoob | actually had no probs with FF2 before Hardy | 02:14 |
| shree_ | arvind_khadri: yup i am looking at installing the gnome libraries for that first hand. that is what i am doing on kubumtu channel :) | 02:14 |
| cky | ienorand: No, just "sudo mount /media/hda1". | 02:14 |
| yoursfaithfully | davelee: Did you check your audio card model number to see if there are driver issues? | 02:14 |
| jrib | chdst: you just stated it did not pass verification from the option when you boot the cd... | 02:14 |
| ienorand | cky: aha | 02:14 |
| amenado | Turbo-> really? you did try the liveCd before permanently installing? | 02:14 |
| cky | ienorand: If that works, that's enough to know that it will work again at bootup. | 02:14 |
| shangoob | FF3 uses over 99% cpu on this 3yr laptop | 02:14 |
| calc | shangoob: if you have many FF extensions turning them off might lower your memory usage | 02:15 |
| davelee | yoursfaithfully: well - it works under every other OS i've used including ubuntu 7.10. SHould i still check ? | 02:15 |
| shree_ | arvind_khadri: can you find it in your apt-cache search result | 02:15 |
| arvind_khadri | shree_, no need for that jus enable the universe in sources.list the necessary files come automagiclly | 02:15 |
| XceII | Ya,dats rite, ive had a few bers, so fkn what, Ubuntu rocks, U gota problem wid dat? | 02:15 |
| arvind_khadri | shree_, nope i cant find it :( | 02:15 |
| chdst | jrib: I actually didn't...sorry about that. I said that the ubuntu installer doesn't think my CD's good, but md5 verifications done to the burn have all succeeded. | 02:16 |
| * Laser88 has atm 3 windows of ff3 with about 40 tabs and no probs | 02:16 | |
| f0g | How can I get beryl working on Hardy? | 02:16 |
| davelee | so .... | 02:16 |
| shree_ | arvind_khadri: :) | 02:16 |
| davelee | sound .... | 02:16 |
| Jack_Sparrow | !beryl > f0g | 02:16 |
| yoursfaithfully | davelee: It might be a good idea. There was a problem with my laptop audio limited to recent Ubuntu distros - headphone jack awareness didn't work, neither did the mic - I just needed to patch ALSA and re-install | 02:16 |
| jrib | chdst: okay, I guess there's a misunderstanding. When you boot from the cd, there's an option to "verify the integrity of the cd" (or something similar). Have you tried that? | 02:16 |
| _derspankster | chdst: try another drive? | 02:16 |
| f0g | !compiz | 02:16 |
| ubotu | Compiz (compositing window manager) and XGL (X server architecture layered on top of OpenGL) - Howto at http://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompositeManager - help in #compiz-fusion | 02:16 |
| nibsa1242b_ | can anyone help me figure out how to record audio from a Mic (in Hardy)? I can't figure out why when I press the record button in various applications (like Audacity) I get no sound. | 02:16 |
| Laser88 | f0g: there's no beryl in hardy - try compiz-fusion | 02:16 |
| Nith | f0g: compiz fusion is a murge between compiz and beryl projects. | 02:16 |
| chdst | Sure did. That fails. | 02:16 |
| djlenoir | cky: Ran grub-install using /dev/sda and it ran fine. The menu.lst contents are (hd0) /dev/sda, (hd1) /dev/sdb, (hd2) /dev/sdc, (hd3) /dev/sdd | 02:16 |
| Turbooster | amenado: sorry mirc disconnected | 02:17 |
| chdst | When I manually check the sums, though, it succeeds. | 02:17 |
| jrib | chdst: okay, then burn the cd slower. It's common that people need to burn it at 2-4x | 02:17 |
| chdst | That is specifically my problem. | 02:17 |
| cky | djlenoir: Didn't we somehow establish that stage1.5 is treating hd0 as your PATA drives instead? *shrug* | 02:17 |
| Nith | f0g: in ubuntu, it's "desktop effects" which is available in system->preferences->appearance | 02:17 |
| XceII | !!!! Compiz fkn Rocks pal, get it rite..k? | 02:17 |
| cky | djlenoir: I thought that was why we were swapping things around, or maybe this _is_ swapped around, in which case you should be good to go. | 02:17 |
| davelee | yoursfaithfully: where do i check? i don't even know specifically the model number | 02:17 |
| AgentHeX | Laser88: alright. ff3 is acting nicer (but not really as familiar as ff2), but here's what i was seeing before: http://agenthex.com/images/random/ff3-issue/ | 02:18 |

| AgentHeX | Laser88: got it? | 02:19 |
| nibsa1242b_ | Alright I guess I'll just have to record sound in windows since no one can help me figure out why its not working. | 02:19 |

| SpookyET | I've had enough of this bullshit. I'm installing arch linux. Ubuntu is a piece of fresh diarrhoea. I hate ubuntu. It's rubbish. You have to reinstall every 6 months. Upgrades never work. It keeps failing. Fucking windows refugees keep saying fresh install. That's fucking bullshit. I'm installing Arch Linux on all my computers, and you can quote me on that. | 02:25 |

| xyzpaw | can anyone tell me how to install JRE on ubuntu | 02:29 |
| cky | ienorand: In that case, the permissions should not be allowing any non-root users to write to it! | 02:29 |
| ekontsevoy | neeto: what kind of problems are you having? | 02:29 |
| davelee | right ............................. kthxbi | 02:29 |
| Laser88 | neeto: what problems? | 02:29 |
| ienorand | cky: and I can still write to the darnd thing, yea! | 02:29 |

| ezzieyguywu1 | how can i change my suspend and resume scripts so that compiz stops before the computer suspends and it starts up again once it resumes? | 02:29 |
| cky | xyzpaw: Install the openjdk-6-jre package. | 02:29 |
| djlenoir | cky: If you are still here, I think it worked! | 02:29 |
| cky | ienorand: Even though you're not root. | 02:29 |
| neeto | ekontsevoy, Laser88: nautilus: error while loading shared libraries: libbeagle.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory | 02:29 |
| cky | djlenoir: Yay!!! | 02:29 |
| enaner | Hello everyone. I believe I have a simple yet annoying problem. My sound works fine. but my headfone and master volume are separated. When I increase master volume nothing happens. I would like this to be in such a way, in which i can control the volume with the master volume ... thanks in advance | 02:29 |
| xyzpaw | cky: how do i do that | 02:29 |
| Pelo | ezzieyguywu1, maybe the ppl in #compiz have an idea | 02:29 |
| ienorand | I am in plugdev group, but not root | 02:30 |
| djlenoir | cky: Thanks for sticking through that problem with me. I really do appreciate the help. | 02:30 |
| benanzo | xyzpaw: 'sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras' | 02:30 |
| ienorand | cky: I am in plugdev group, but not root | 02:30 |
| ezzieyguywu1 | pelo : i havne't checked there cuz it involves the suspend and resume scripts for the system | 02:30 |
| Pelo | enaner, there is a jacksense checkbox in the volume control in the top pannel see if that helps | 02:30 |
| cky | ienorand: Even _that_ is warped. :-( | 02:30 |
| AgentHeX | laser88: the only thing that changes *anything* is to allow or disallow a page to select its own fonts. | 02:30 |
| arvind_khadri | jrib, where does the wget files go?? | 02:30 |
| benanzo | xyzpaw: it will install a bunch of stuff you'll likely want in the future | 02:30 |
| cky | djlenoir: No worries! Hopefully it will stay working for good. | 02:30 |
| jrib | arvind_khadri: current working directory | 02:30 |
| Pelo | ezzieyguywu1, but other compiz users might have had the same issue and found a way to fix it | 02:30 |
| Laser88 | neeto: looks like there is no such file or directory... | 02:30 |
| ekontsevoy | neeto: I would do a serch with aptitude and uninstalled every single package that has something about beagle in it. | 02:30 |
| AgentHeX | if i disallow, it messes up the page layout. | 02:30 |
| cky | ienorand: Okay, I will have to think about this later, because I have to go. If others can help you, yay! Good luck! | 02:31 |
| ezzieyguywu1 | pelo: ok i'll check it out | 02:31 |
| neeto | Laser88: read that. ekontsevoy: did that :/ | 02:31 |
| enaner | there isn't a jacksense check box in pelo | 02:31 |
| ekontsevoy | neeto: I think you had beagle installed at some point and now it's broken | 02:31 |
| ienorand | cky: here is the proc/mounts thing output: http://mibbit.com/pb/Tv9KKM | 02:31 |
| AgentHeX | Laser88: i set a minimum font size, and i can still minor the size to "microscopic" | 02:31 |

| gaspipe1 | what's better kopete or pidgin? or is this not the place to ask? | 02:31 |
| mng51971 | anybody have any pointers | 02:31 |
| ekontsevoy | neeto: I mean what do you do that causes it to occur? | 02:31 |
| ienorand | cky: thant for your help | 02:31 |
| neeto | ekontsevoy: anytime I want to start nautilus | 02:32 |
| enaner | Pelo: i only one tab, and thats "playback" | 02:32 |
| Pelo | mng51971, recheck the settings in system > prefs >sound | 02:32 |
| arvind_khadri | jrib, ok now am serious i cant find it | 02:32 |
| Pelo | enaner, must be driver dependent | 02:32 |
| ienorand | cky: At least I know it is something seriously wrong and not me | 02:32 |
| cky | ienorand: No worries. By the way, does your fstab contain allow_other? Because your /proc/mounts is listing it, and that's what may be causing the security to fail. | 02:32 |
| |Dreams| | ubuntu is so boring compared to kubuntu and dull | 02:32 |
| Laser88 | AgentHeX: strange | 02:32 |

| Turbooster | I'm trying to get my WLan working in Hardy. But I can't access the restricted drivers manager because hardy freezes all the time... So can I add the res. driver manually? Or is anything known about the GONME-freeze? | 02:32 |
| haettulegur | sorry for the desperation, but can anyone help me with a 'fsck failed' probelm? | 02:32 |
| Pelo | enaner, try playing around with the settings in terminal : alsamixer | 02:32 |
| AgentHeX | Laser88: i think i wasn't doing it right. | 02:32 |
| cky | ienorand: Okay, good luck, once again! | 02:33 |
| SeaPhor | Pelo, Finally, after over 5 months of struggling with trying to get wireless working, thanks to CJS3141 it now works and works great! now, everything that i have is working, is there a way to back up all my settings? so if something goes wrong i can go back to this point? | 02:33 |
| ekontsevoy | neeto: here is an idea: you probably have some kind of configuration data that causes nautilus to load beagle libs. | 02:33 |
| AgentHeX | Laser88: it finally changed, but i think of 10 point font as fairly large. it's tiny. so making 12 point the minimum helps. | 02:33 |
| Pelo | enaner, actualy , see if your headphone sound changes when you play with the PCM volume | 02:33 |
| khafra | stdin: But the genuine helpers here, they do not feed me :( | 02:33 |
| ekontsevoy | try creating another user in the system, log in as him, and then try starting nautilus. | 02:33 |
| neeto | ekontsevoy: oh yeah... I'll check it out | 02:33 |
| amenado | SeaPhor-> you took some notes downs per my suggestions ? | 02:33 |
| davelee | right | 02:33 |
| davelee | so | 02:33 |
| AgentHeX | Laser88: i think i found a compromise, but i wonder why they would change this (essential) functionality in a new version of FF | 02:33 |
| cky | ienorand: Read the mount.ntfs-3g man page for what allow_other does. | 02:33 |
| davelee | sound works under the generic kernel | 02:33 |
| davelee | but | 02:33 |
| davelee | vmware doesnt | 02:33 |
| FloodBot2 | davelee: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 02:33 |
| ienorand | cky: no no sign of anything like that... | 02:33 |
| khafra | Squashfs creation: Why would it fail at 71%, with nothing in dmesg? | 02:33 |
| shree_ | arvind_khadri: hey, what are the requirements | 02:34 |
| Pelo | SeaPhor, some settings are in /home, but usualy hardware stuff is in /etc and the likes, there are aps for backups , hold on | 02:34 |
| davelee | do i need to compile a custom kernel? | 02:34 |
| khafra | And keep failing at around 75% even when I start the whole process from scratch, on a different partition to be sure | 02:34 |
| cky | ienorand: Uh oh. Then there's more mystery.... I wish you good luck in tracking that down! :-) | 02:34 |
| Pelo | !backup > SeaPhor check for a private message windows with instructions from ubotu | 02:34 |
| arvind_khadri | shree_, you need tapioca | 02:34 |
| SeaPhor | amenado, Ohhh Yeah! I copy/pasted the whole thing! all the teminals everything! | 02:34 |
| * flyback drowns in grief | 02:34 | |
| Pelo | !enter | davelee | 02:34 |
| ubotu | davelee: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation! | 02:34 |
| shree_ | arvind_khadri: i can install that through apt | 02:34 |
| Laser88 | AgentHeX: that's what I wanted to ask - what minimum size did u choose (depends on the monitor) | 02:34 |
| shree_ | arvind_khadri: its avble | 02:34 |
| ekontsevoy | neeto: do something like find ~/ -name ".*" | xargs grep beagle | 02:34 |
| davelee | and if so, does anyone know what vmware needs to make it happy ? | 02:34 |
| Pelo | flyback, what,s the problem ? | 02:34 |
| amenado | SeaPhor-> okay, keep a good copy now.. | 02:34 |
| davelee | Pelo, got it the first time | 02:34 |
| arvind_khadri | shree_, did you check that?? | 02:34 |
| shree_ | arvind_khadri: do you think we shoudl go ahead with landell or ereseva | 02:35 |
| Laser88 | AgentHeX: ff3 is build from the roots afaik | 02:35 |
| enaner | pelo, yes when i change the headphone sounds, the volume changes | 02:35 |
| ienorand | cky: cheers! | 02:35 |
| amenado | khafra-> you are creating a squasfs fille? | 02:35 |
| AgentHeX | Laser88: minimum size of 12 yields very similar appearance to old FF layout. i had to minor the screen twice, but with minimum 12 pt, it looks good | 02:35 |
| SeaPhor | amenado, will be posted on my website :-)) | 02:35 |
| khafra | amenado: Trying to. It's not working | 02:35 |
| arvind_khadri | shree_, i dont think its really worht the pain!! | 02:35 |
| flyback | sorry forgot I was still in this channel | 02:35 |
| amenado | SeaPhor-> cool | 02:35 |
| AgentHeX | Laser88: sweet. thanks | 02:35 |
| biabia | I figured out my problem with my install, all my hard drive device names were changed so they were wrong in my fstab, i just had to manually mount them and edit the fstab | 02:35 |
| davelee | do apart from whinging about punctuation, anyone got anything useful to offer? | 02:35 |
| arvind_khadri | shree_, i would suggest you to use Windows till a .deb is out for gtalk | 02:35 |
| shree_ | arvind_khadri: hmmm | 02:35 |
| AgentHeX | Laser88: do you know if old FF2 extensions and addons work in FF3? | 02:35 |
| Pelo | enaner, PCM is not he headphone specificaly it' the PC master volume, you can have that as the one displayed on for the volume icon if you want | 02:36 |
| amenado | khafra-> what is your command like? | 02:36 |
| enaner | pelo, yes i would like to have it displayed as one | 02:36 |
| khafra | amenado: sudo mksquashfs ~/livecd/custom ~/livecd/cd/casper/filesystem.squashfs | 02:36 |
| AgentHeX | Laser88: i guess not :( | 02:36 |
| aaron | trying to upgrade gutsy to hardy..seems to be stuck on ldconfig deferred processing (for about 20 minutes now) with "/usr/lib/libnvidia-tls.so.1 is not a symbolic link"..I know the box isn't frozed because I'm accessing it with VNC right now. Any suggestions? | 02:36 |
| arvind_khadri | shree_, if you really want to take the pain we can go ahead...but we wont be sure after doing it whether it'll work or not | 02:36 |
| khafra | amenado: Got that from http://www.debuntu.org/book/export/html/216 | 02:36 |
| amenado | khafra-> thats looks good | 02:37 |
| Pelo | davelee, right now there is no vmware package fro 8.04 , you,ll have to be patient and/or get the source from the vmware website and compile manualy | 02:37 |
| davelee | Pelo, I've compiled it manually | 02:37 |
| Laser88 | AgentHeX: a lot of the extensions and add-ons already work in FF3, and I've already seen a workaround to get the others to work - but i can wait, won't take a long time... | 02:37 |
| * dirtyrice is still playing with compiz | 02:37 | |
| Pelo | enaner, try chcking in right click properties, I know you can select he one you want | 02:37 |
| davelee | Pelo: successfully - it runs, but fails to start VM's under the stock kernel. the Server kernel works but does not support my sound card. | 02:37 |
| Pelo | davelee, what,s the issue then ? | 02:37 |
| M1dn1ght | Hey guys - A couple of months ago I was trying to install Ubuntu on my laptop before coming to the conclusion that my graphics adapter was not supported. I was told to check back every month or so to see if there had been any progress. Anyone know? It's a "SiS Mirage 3 Graphics" adapter on a laptop | 02:38 |
| AgentHeX | Laser88: well, one of the major addons i use works (or was re-written). a couple others that i like are out of luck | 02:38 |
| shree_ | arvind_khadri: i would like to go ahead with landell bcoz ereseva seems really immature product | 02:38 |
| arvind_khadri | shree_, you around | 02:38 |
| Pelo | davelee, try asking in #vmware maybe they have a solution | 02:38 |
| shree_ | arvind_khadri: yup | 02:38 |
| davelee | Pelo: *nod* ta | 02:38 |
| xyzpaw | can anyone tell me how to open a .jar file? | 02:38 |
| khafra | amenado: My best guess was that I'd run out of space, but df -h says I still have 1GB left. After I rebooted the livecd and tried the custom creation again, it went from halting at 74% to halting at 71%. The percentage at which it halts doesn't change until I reboot and start from scratch | 02:38 |
| arvind_khadri | shree_, landell is a part of that i feel as landel gives no google results | 02:38 |
| AgentHeX | Laser88: i also just noticed the "ignore version check" button | 02:38 |
| Pelo | M1dn1ght, have you looked in https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupport and in the forum ? | 02:38 |
| Juninhu | tem algum brasileiro aki? | 02:39 |
| enaner | thank you pelo. I think I figured it out | 02:39 |
| Laser88 | AgentHeX: sry, cannot help - my 2 extensions that don't work are the Tor-button and focus_last_selected | 02:39 |
| CarlF1 | xyzpaw: .jar is a java archive - i think you run it | 02:39 |
| amenado | khafra-> you have a good manifest file? | 02:39 |
| shree_ | arvind_khadri: you mean that ereseva will be a better bet | 02:39 |
| taquitos | hi, so ubuntu 7.1 had vmware server in the install, I think. does 8.04 not? | 02:39 |
| AgentHeX | Laser88: *GASP* tor button doesn't work??? | 02:39 |
| Pelo | xyzpaw, you donT open a .jar file you run it , they are java scrips, you need to install sun-java6-jre and maybe -jdk but not sure | 02:39 |
| mng51971 | thanks Pelo, i looked and set the sound device, the funny thing is, i can hear the drum beat at logon and logoff, and I heard sound when i tested in sound settings, but it wont work in video playback | 02:39 |

| Phoenix92x | I'm having a problem with displayconfig-gtk in Hardy. I have two monitors and I can't get both of them configured to be the same desktop. Right now I can only get my secondary monitor to clone the first one. I have it set as "secondary, extends to the right" yet when I hit test it tells me the test failed and when I write to file and try to restart x it gives me an error that x had to start in "low graphics mode" and asks me if I want to try configuri | 02:48 |
| Phoenix92x | ng x again, during this it defaults to the vesa driver. I'm using the nv driver and have an nvidia 7950 GX (possibly GTX, don't remember atm, tired) | 02:48 |

| Joshooa | Hey, my room mates have this old laptop, 500MHz 256MB of RAM, and I tried install Ubuntu 7.10, 7.04, and 6.06, regular cds and the alternate(not live and text based) and each time it had a cd read error, usually before beginning install, farthest I got was partitioning. Then I did an old burnt XP cd, and installed slowly but no problems whatsoever. I've never seen a machine that's really "build for Windows XP" so any advice on how I ca | 03:03 |
| WelshDragon | Anyone know of some really good voice changing software? | 03:03 |
| digitalslave | trouble is i dont think ubuntu mounts it correctly cause i cant read anything on it but the files are there??? | 03:03 |
| Pelo | flyback, I don'T allow private msg, please talk to me in the channel | 03:03 |
| rich_freecomm | albuntu: so have I. I was curious (like for next time) if the CD way would be quicker | 03:03 |
| aaron | stuck at ldconfig deferred processing during gutsy-->hardy upgrade. see http://www.pastebin.ca/998915 and http://www.pastebin.ca/998919 | 03:03 |
| crdlb | enaner: that's probably caused by the fact that hardy uses pulseaudio | 03:03 |
| Yahuda | Ookay, does anyone know why my computer crashed like 10 times in an hour? : ) | 03:03 |
| crdlb | albuntu: that's a really bad idea :/ | 03:03 |
| Mindaxiz | can you get dict to work in the firefox address bar as in windows? | 03:03 |
| flyback | Pelo thx for the concern but it's just life problems | 03:03 |
| SpectralDesign | rich_freecomm: okay, thanks, I'll try to be patient :P I saw no network activity and tried a couple times so I thought maybe it was a bigger problem than me | 03:03 |
| Yahuda | I just installed Ubuntu yesterday. | 03:03 |
| mib_z7c0iuv5 | Have someone had issues after upgrading from gutsy to hardy with sources.list? | 03:03 |
| ErrorF002 | bynw: I have full color, but its as if someone cut a vertical swatch out of the screen and you can't see that swatch | 03:03 |
| noel__ | Yes Pelo i run getlibs for cairo-dock and it can't find a match. i always have cairo-dock running but today i made a fresh install of hardy and i can't get it working anymore. | 03:03 |
| arvind_khadri | enaner, sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree this would help | 03:03 |
| Pelo | flyback, life sucks , give it up | 03:03 |
| crdlb | dabbill: ohh, I think I know, one second | 03:04 |
| albuntu | crdlb: if there is no .deb there is no other way :( | 03:04 |
| enaner | crdlb it worked fine yesterday | 03:04 |
| crdlb | albuntu: using the tarball is better, but flash is already in the repos anyway | 03:04 |
| Pelo | noel__, I mean did you check in synaptic for the lib you are missing | 03:04 |
| rich_freecomm | SpectralDesign: you could try a reboot of everything...Hubs, routers, modems, start fresh | 03:04 |
| digitalslave | if someone has some knowledge on mounting with out joliet extensions please pm me | 03:04 |
| arialth | hey i have a conundrum here i cannot quite solve. I recently got ahold of a VERY old tower, and I want to install linux on it (any distro, but prefferably runlevel 3 ubuntu, no desktop). The problem is this: It has no monitor, and I am on a laptop (ubuntu 8.04/winxp). I do have a crossover cable, but i was wondering if it is at ALL possible to install ubuntu or any distro remotely FROM my laptop connecting into the tower? Can this eve | 03:04 |

| ErrorF002 | bynw: funny part is that people have had the same issue on my laptop in 6.x but the fix stated does not seem to be possible as the files mentioned are not in the /etc/X11 dir | 03:04 |
| SeaPhor_ | is there a way to watch your real-time connection speed? | 03:04 |
| crdlb | enaner: so why do you expect a flash update to fix it? I doubt youtube has changed dramatically in that period | 03:04 |
| ienorand | Pelo: ah, no group 4 is admin, group 0 is root, so what are you saying I should edit?? | 03:04 |
| rich_freecomm | SpectralDesign: I let it run all night, I know I'd be anxious if I was awake while it was doing it :D | 03:05 |

| rich_freecomm | Joshooa: ug...they can be a pain | 03:09 |
| CygnusX1 | Does anyone know why symlinks are not followed in 8.04? | 03:09 |
| Joshooa | rich_freecomm: 500MHz 256MB RAM 6GB hard drive, most cds wouldn't even get into live, 1 did, but froze during partition | 03:10 |
| arialth | CJS3141:what version of ubuntu do you have? | 03:10 |
| Ashfire908 | what's so special about PulseAudio? | 03:10 |
| rich_freecomm | Joshooa: when I first installed 7.10 onto my laptop, I had to do it 3-4 times before it took | 03:10 |
| Laser88 | CygnusX1: are they still valid? | 03:10 |
| amrik | CygnusX1: symlinks still work for me O_o | 03:10 |
| Joshooa | rich_freecomm: I tried 7.10, 7.04, and 6.06, normal cds and alternate, not live just text install, both from my computer, and my brothers, so different computers, different downloads, different burning software, and different cds | 03:10 |
| sonofthunder | yahuda: i have already done all of the synaptic package manager stuff. It is on my comp. i just do not know how to run the program | 03:10 |
| Joshooa | rich_freecomm: Well it was always a CD read error of some sort | 03:10 |
| Radtoo^laptop | Ashfire908: its an attempt at improvement over older sound servers such as arts | 03:11 |
| rich_freecomm | Joshooa: and even then, I think I don't have access to all the 'devices' because the drivers were made for poo XP | 03:11 |
| Yahuda | sonofthunder: Hmm. | 03:11 |
| arialth | hey so does anyone have any idea how to install linux remotely? | 03:11 |
| Ashfire908 | never mind my question, i have to go | 03:11 |
| Radtoo^laptop | Ashfire908: cross-platform compatible and all that | 03:11 |
| Yahuda | sonofthunder: Just find the package. ^^ | 03:11 |
| Joshooa | rich_freecomm: I really thought CD drive failure, but reluctantly tried and XP cd, and it worked | 03:11 |
| Laser88 | CygnusX1: hd went to sd in hardy | 03:11 |
| Pelo | ienorand, man mount lists a nouser option that will prevent ordinary users from mounting the FS , maybe you can try that | 03:11 |
| rich_freecomm | Joshooa: hmm...I kept getting that too, but my CD drive is kinda flaky as is | 03:11 |
| roxygirl | anyone have info on linux web editors? anything with an easy interface with some drag and drop features? | 03:11 |

| Joshooa | rich_freecomm: I really want it to work, cause it's a 6GB drive, and Ubuntu is smaller than Xp right? Plus, they are both total noobs to computers, so they wouldn't be switching to Ubuntu really | 03:12 |
| arialth | tks pelo | 03:12 |
| Yahuda | sonofthunder: For example, I installed Compiz Fusion, and its settings manager is under "System". | 03:12 |

| Radtoo^laptop | T1m0thy: quick fix its asking for is you to go root, mkdir /rscache, chmod -R 0777 /rscache . Whether or not that will work I don't know. :) | 03:18 |
| rich_freecomm | FlashWolf: modem driver disk + wine..? | 03:18 |
| Pelo | ienorand, all the commands i have given you so far you were suppose to add to the mount line for the ntfs partiton in the fstab file, what have you been doing with them ? | 03:18 |

| * arvind_khadri Pelo #debian is mean to Ubuntu and Ubunteros ;) | 03:32 | |
| shane2peru | Pelo, I don't want it to mount it when I plug it in | 03:32 |
| dragon64 | did you install it in its own partition or on a windows partition | 03:32 |
| CygnusX1 | Darre1: use ssh with vnc | 03:32 |

| leviwink1 | These are my errors: http://pastebin.com/m5c7c617c | 03:33 |

| farzad | is it the only driver that i need to install pelo ? | 03:34 |
| rich_freecomm | cptnymo: if it means anything...it ain't doing anything over here either | 03:34 |
| earlh | use vnc and ssh | 03:34 |
| farzad | i havent installed any driver myself | 03:34 |
| fbc | Pelo, there are no errors in /var/log/syslog at the time of the crash. I guess that is how hard it went down.. I'm going to open another instance of open office and keep my fingers crossed the machine does not freeze after a couple of minutes. | 03:34 |

| farzad | i know | 03:43 |
| IndyGunFreak | !info gxmms2 | Bidget | 03:43 |
| ubotu | bidget: gxmms2 (source: gxmms2): xmms2 client for the GNOME desktop. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.6.4-1.1 (hardy), package size 56 kB, installed size 188 kB | 03:43 |
| farzad | but why i dont have the option | 03:43 |
| plinde | tim1: you need more disk space; you can create that dir if it complains. sudo mkdir dist-upgrade | 03:43 |
| Bidget | IndyGunFreak, I already installed that, it doesnt work | 03:43 |
| farzad | it says 7.04 or later | 03:43 |
| IndyGunFreak | oh ok. | 03:43 |
| shane2peru | is it possible that hardy mounts my usb harddrive too fast, and that is why it doesn't work? | 03:43 |
| Bidget | IndyGunFreak, so I'm installing xmms2-core or something | 03:43 |
| farzad | so i should have | 03:43 |
| farzad | I SHOOOOOOOOOOULD have | 03:43 |
| IndyGunFreak | Bidget: have you looked at audacious? | 03:43 |
| farzad | this option | 03:43 |

| Bidget | IndyGunFreak, no | 03:43 |
| dettymac | killeroid , thanks ill look both up | 03:43 |
| IndyGunFreak | Bidget: why do you need xmms2? | 03:43 |
| shane2peru | icesword, oh, testdisk, wasn't quite the ticket, gddrescue is more along the lines I need, thanks for the info though. | 03:43 |
| farzad | OK Flood bot 2 | 03:43 |
| Bidget | IndyGunFreak, because I want to listen to music...? | 03:44 |
| Pelo | farzad, pay attention, the first part tell you how to use the option in restricted driver, if you do not have the option in restricted driver you read the second part where it tells you another way to do it , wherer you do not need the opton in restricted driver , | 03:44 |
| farzad | but i should have this option it says 7.04 or later for god sake 7.04 and later | 03:44 |
| farzad | The easiest way to install binary drivers is to use the built in Restricted Driver Manager from System -> Administration -> Restricted Driver Manager in Ubuntu . | 03:44 |
| IndyGunFreak | Bidget: audaciou is very similar to xmms.. and is still supported | 03:44 |
| icesword | shane2peru: ok, ddrescue | 03:44 |

| AdemoS | Is this the correct place to ask about Ubuntu Studio? Or is a there a sepearate support channel? | 04:02 |

| timandtom | What would differ if I did a clean 7.10 install, then IMMEDIATELY afterwards, updated to 8.04, instead of doing a clean 8.04 install? I want to update, but 8.04 has issues with my wireless card, namely, it not working, whereas 7.10 has the restricted drivers right out of the box. | 04:13 |
| exophonix | Allo ! Y'a quelqu'un ? | 04:13 |
| Dekkard | hmmm | 04:13 |
| somethingcomplex | Hi, I'm trying to continue downloading something in BitTorrent (after rebooting) and it's asking me to open location of meta file. I think this means the .torrent file, but I can't find it. It was downloaded to /tmp, but it's not there anymore. Help? | 04:13 |
| MrLinux | It is posible to install DirectX 9c on Ubuntu ? To run games designed for Windows ? | 04:13 |
| pawan | it is showing 7.10 but i have 8.04 | 04:13 |
| Gman99999 | justdave hey let me know if it works too, Im curious | 04:13 |
| ouellettesr | MrLinux, no | 04:13 |
| ripps | I'm using a custom kernel 2.6.25. Do I just reinstall the Alsa package to get sound working? | 04:13 |
| periscope | I could use some help with samba. I am in a lan, I can see the other windows computers on the network, but I can't see any files on them when I click on their icon | 04:13 |
| timandtom | somethingcomplex: Just go download the .torrent file from whatever site you found it on again. | 04:13 |
| nepal | Anyone know where i can download windows xp? | 04:13 |
| ubuntung-pinoy | MrLinux: u'v got a better chance running it in Wine | 04:13 |
| timandtom | somethingcomplex: Then save the file in the same spot as before, of course | 04:13 |
| unperson | somethingcomplex, I think if you went and downloaded a new copy of the torrent file that would suffice, but I'm not sure. | 04:14 |
| ubuntung-pinoy | !welcome | nepal | 04:14 |
| ubotu | nepal: Welcome to #ubuntu - the Ubuntu support channel. | 04:14 |
| unperson | somethingcomplex, I can tell you this: | 04:14 |
| Dekkard | download the torrent file to your home or desktop.. or somewhere you can find and access it | 04:14 |
| Yarakyo | somethingcomplex: maybe you should try a different folder becuase /tmp gets wiped after a reboot | 04:14 |
| MrLinux | ubuntung-pinoy : I need to run a game for exemple, I can do that ? | 04:14 |
| timandtom | unperson: That works :) I do it all the time(Why I can't just remember to SAVE the .torrent instead I'll never know) | 04:14 |
| Rafabe | hi | 04:14 |

| ouellettesr | ubuntulog, yeah ive been there and did that | 04:15 |
| HardyOne | nepal: www.windows.com is where you can get windows. | 04:15 |
| ouellettesr | ubuntung-pinoy, ** | 04:15 |
| unperson | somethingcomplex, I downloaded the ISO directly from a mirror. Later I decided to share the wealth by running bittorrent to "download" the file I already had. I downloaded the torrent file to the same directory as the ISO and then invoked btdownloadcurses just like I was downloading it fresh and that worked fine. | 04:16 |
| benny_ | mmmm.. me likes Hardy Haron! | 04:16 |
| somethingcomplex | timandtom: I downloaded the torrent again, but it's still not visible | 04:16 |
| ubuntung-pinoy | MrLinux, AppDB of www.winehq.org, without the hyphen | 04:16 |
| Dekkard | somethingcomplex: where did youdownload it too | 04:16 |
| sls | ubuntung-pinoy, on its own? No hands? | 04:16 |
| ripps | I'm using a custom kernel 2.6.25. Do I just reinstall the Alsa package to get sound working? | 04:16 |
| milly1234 | I am having crackling sounds in the sound when I am playing games and stuff with alot of sound in 8.04, is this a known issue? and is there a fix? | 04:16 |
| somethingcomplex | Dekkard: /tmp again | 04:16 |
| CITguy08 | can someone help me with Hardy? I cannot get the gnome desktop to load | 04:16 |
| benny_ | or.. maybe it's just that I decided not to try the 64 bit version again.. I still think the amd64 versions are subpar. | 04:16 |
| Dekkard | somethingcomplex: download it to your desktop | 04:17 |
| timandtom | somethingcomplex: Whadya mean not visible? Like, it's not in the temporary folder? Try saving it somewhere ELSE | 04:17 |
| unperson | somethingcomplex, You mean you can't find the torrent file you downloaded. | 04:17 |
| pawan | hi | 04:17 |

| ubuntung-pinoy | sls: yep.. hav u tried Googling ur issue yet? might turn up some nice info | 04:17 |
| somethingcomplex | unperson: ...what? | 04:17 |
| sls | ubuntung-pinoy, ok -- | 04:17 |
| Makgyver | ok thats it, time to find another OS that will install, this one will not work at all | 04:17 |
| unperson | somethingcomplex, You downloaded the .torrent file again, but now you can't find it on your HD? | 04:18 |
| * Dekkard had a absolutely boring clean install | 04:18 | |
| Makgyver | Clearly Ubuntu is not designed for Power<acs | 04:18 |
| Pelo | Makgyver, sorry to hear that | 04:18 |
| ubuntung-pinoy | any Evolution gurus in here? i get "no route to host" error when sending mail.. | 04:18 |
| benny_ | Makgyver: Dude.. no other Linux distro matches.. | 04:18 |
| somethingcomplex | unperson: I guess I mean the filepath indicated in the download status bar is wrong. It's just not where it says it is. It's not hidden, either | 04:18 |
| Pelo | Dekkard, boring ? | 04:18 |
| Dekkard | yeah.. | 04:18 |
| Dekkard | boring | 04:18 |
| unperson | Has anyone tried installing hardy on a system where one of the filesystems is on a software raid? | 04:18 |
| Dekkard | it just installed | 04:18 |
| benny_ | Dekkard: Yeah.. it just worked!! damn thing!! :) | 04:18 |
| somethingcomplex | unperson: either that, or i'm crazy | 04:18 |
| justdave | Gman99999: no luck, still all quiet | 04:19 |
| unperson | somethingcomplex, Could be both. ;-) | 04:19 |
| Makgyver | benny_, really, then why does Gentoo Live CD boot fin on the PowerMac but the Ubuntu Live CD drops me to (initramfs) with no workable fix | 04:19 |
| Pelo | Dekkard, I think I know what you mean, i have to come there to find stuff to fix now, I have no problems on my end either | 04:19 |
| unperson | somethingcomplex, Anyway, can you try saving it somewhere else, somewhere like your Desktop? | 04:19 |
| chris__ | anyone got tvtime to work? | 04:19 |
| unperson | somethingcomplex, You should be able to specify by right-clicking on the link for the .torrent file and choosing save as | 04:19 |
| somethingcomplex | unperson: it doesn't give me an option to download it anywhere else.. i will see if i can change the default | 04:19 |
| * Pelo is so bored he made a grub gfxboot theme and uploaded it to gnome-look.org today | 04:19 | |
| benny_ | Makgyver: ok... ok.. sorry.. no other x86 distro matches.. :) never tried it on power.. does this release even support PowerPC? | 04:20 |
| somethingcomplex | unperson: oh! | 04:20 |
| Rafabe | is VNC a universal protocol? ie, can I use any VNC client to connect to Ubuntu's VNC server? | 04:20 |
| Dekkard | somethingcomplex: look.. this isnt a OS thing.. this is knowing how to use a browser to download a file.. click on save as.. than choose the location.. like your Desktop or Home folder | 04:20 |
| rootyrooty | Pelo: Hi, How Do I UNmount my ipod? I don'thave permissionsl.......... | 04:20 |
| Dekkard | you prolly dont have authorization to download to /temp | 04:20 |
| Makgyver | benny_, supposed to | 04:20 |
| Pelo | Rafabe, I think vnc is for remote desktop, I beleive ou need to use ssh to remote to an headless machine | 04:20 |
| unperson | somethingcomplex, Wait, was firefox just downloading the file or was it opening a bittorrent client automatically? | 04:21 |
| timandtom | Rafabe: What exactly do you mean? Like, will a Windows VNC client connect to an Ubuntu one? | 04:21 |
| Pelo | rootyrooty, terminal > sudo umount /media/label | 04:21 |
| Rafabe | pelo: I can't use Windows Remote Desktop to connect to the Ubuntu machine, so what software could I use? | 04:21 |
| benny_ | Makgyver: sorry dude.. not to stur up a ruckus here, but could you go back to leopard? | 04:21 |
| rootyrooty | Pelo: Thanks! am trying so | 04:21 |
| Gman99999 | justdave do you know how to delete a file from the command line lol? | 04:21 |
| Rafabe | timandtom: yes. There's TightVNC, OpenVNC, RealVNC, tons of them. Will any of them work? | 04:21 |
| timandtom | Rafabe: Is Windows Remote Desktop VNC? | 04:21 |
| justdave | Gman99999: yep | 04:21 |
| Pelo | Rafabe, vnc ? | 04:21 |
| somethingcomplex | Dekkard: I am perfectly capable of using my browser, thanks. This is a BitTorrent-in-Ubuntu thing, which I admit isn't completely relevant, but thanks for your help anyway. | 04:21 |
| Monicker | Rafabe: those are different protocols | 04:21 |
| Monicker | rdp != vnc | 04:21 |
| Rafabe | timandtom: nope, it's RDP | 04:21 |
| Pelo | Rafabe, not realy somethingI am familar with | 04:21 |
| fbc | If you have a pentium 4 3.2 hyperthread fixed frequency cpu, do you reall need POWERNOWD service running? | 04:21 |
| unperson | somethingcomplex, Because AFAIK the default behavior when it downloads is to put stuff in the Desktop directory, not /tmp. | 04:21 |
| somethingcomplex | unperson: I tried both | 04:21 |
| pawan | how to update menu.lst | 04:21 |
| pawan | it is showing 7.10 but i have 8.04 | 04:21 |
| Dekkard | somethingcomplex: than where is the .torrent file? | 04:22 |
| Rafabe | so which protocol does the Ubuntu remote desktop (that you configure in Preferences > Remote Desktop)? How can I access that vnc server from a Windows box? | 04:22 |
| Gman99999 | justdave what's the command? | 04:22 |
| Makgyver | benny_, yes I can, but I dont want to | 04:22 |
| timandtom | Rafabe: Ah, yeh. Hasta be VNC. But yes, any VNC client should work. | 04:22 |
| justdave | Gman99999: rm | 04:22 |
| somethingcomplex | Dekkard: damned if i know | 04:22 |
| olivier__ | Hi everybody! | 04:22 |
| Starnestommy | fbc: only if you need to change the voltage or speed of your cpus | 04:22 |
| timandtom | Rafabe: Ubuntu Remote Desktop uses VNC. | 04:22 |
| Gman99999 | justdave ok yea thanks | 04:22 |
| Rafabe | ok, any client works...thanks | 04:22 |
| Pelo | fbc, powernowd is to throttle cpu freq, if you don'T do that you don't need it | 04:22 |
| unperson | somethingcomplex, If it's spawning a bittorrent client then I think it'll usually put the torrent file in /tmp. | 04:22 |
| neon | what is a good messenger program that supports webcam? thanks | 04:22 |
| ubuntung-pinoy | sls: any luck yet? | 04:22 |

| oboy03 | how do i upgrade using alternate iso | 04:22 |
| olivier__ | I have a good question for you! | 04:22 |
| Rafabe | I thought each VNC was different. I didn't know it was like FTP. I got confused by all the software out there :) Thanks | 04:22 |
| Makgyver | I have booted the Ubuntu Live CD for 7.1 and 6.06, both drop me to (initramfs) there MUST be a step that is not documented | 04:22 |
| unperson | somethingcomplex, I personally find that behavior of firefox annoying, but sais la vie, I guess. | 04:22 |
| dny | Is there a guide for setting up dual boot in ubuntu hardy? | 04:22 |
| Pelo | neon, amsn I beleive but I'm not sure | 04:23 |
| Makgyver | benny_, I have 4 Macs here | 04:23 |
| KeithWeisshar | why is it very difficult to download the dvd version of ubuntu? | 04:23 |
| Pelo | Makgyver, have you trieed the latest ? | 04:23 |
| Monicker | Rafabe: some clients are different in the advanced features, like encryption and authentication | 04:23 |
| ouellettesr | ubuntung-pinoy, when trying to connect to the phone from that tutorial you sent me to I get this error: Can't get device information: Success | 04:23 |
| Makgyver | I am currently on Leopard | 04:23 |
| Monicker | but the basic protocol is the same | 04:23 |
| Makgyver | Pelo, I have tried them all | 04:23 |
| fbc | Pelo, isn't powernowd an AMD only service? I though INTEL's did not offer that only in pentium-M's. | 04:23 |
| KeithWeisshar | why is the server for the dvd version slow | 04:23 |
| justdave | speaking of Ubuntu Remote Desktop... I notice it advertises its presence to your LAN via Bonjour/zeroconf/avahi/whatever they're calling it today. Is there a way to edit the name it uses to advertise with? | 04:23 |
| Makgyver | I would rather not dowmload another 700mb on my $ if I can help it | 04:23 |
| Pelo | KeithWeisshar, do tit wiht torrents, it is fster, the servers are a bit busy for ftp downloads, with all the ppl upgrading | 04:23 |
| benny_ | Makgyver: you try nodma? | 04:23 |
| KeithWeisshar | why is the dvd version only available on the cdimage server | 04:23 |
| Dekkard | KeithWeisshar: seriously.. the servers are getting hammered by the galazy upgrading.. and downloading hardy | 04:24 |
| Makgyver | benny_, wtf is nodma | 04:24 |
| Dekkard | or galaxy | 04:24 |

| SeaPhor | xyzpaw, sorry, lost wireless settings, weird, had to "unlock" several times and put in passkey to get it working | 04:24 |
| fbc | Starnestommy, but you can't change the voltage of my type of CPU correct?? So I don't need it.. | 04:24 |
| Rafabe | so which one do you guys suggest? RealVNC, TightVNC, or UltraVNC? All three are open-source projects. | 04:24 |
| KeithWeisshar | do you have a link to the dvd torrents | 04:24 |
| benny_ | it's been a while.. but I used to have to use ide=nodma (something like that?) | 04:24 |
| ubuntung-pinoy | ouellettesr: is this the first time u try to sync it with any machine, or has it worked with others? | 04:25 |
| unperson | somethingcomplex, What client are you trying to use now? | 04:25 |
| Starnestommy | fbc: it's not needed | 04:25 |
| devnull | would anyone have any idea why ubuntu only sees one core of my dual core cpu? | 04:25 |
| Pelo | KeithWeisshar, I just sent the torrent link to you in pm , from ubotu | 04:25 |
| Dekkard | isnt hardys default vnc client vinagre? | 04:25 |
| unperson | somethingcomplex, (I may have missed that part earlier) | 04:25 |

| Makgyver | RH boots, Gentoo boots, Slax boots, OSX boots, but Ubuntu does not | 04:25 |
| Monicker | Rafabe: realvnc and tightvnc are both good. I have not touched ultravnc in quite a while. | 04:25 |
| igoogg | where do i edit the menu "Places"? | 04:25 |

| Makgyver | this is the internet mate, there is no "downtime" | 04:26 |

| hdevalence | Anyone tried using Debtorrent with Ubuntu? | 04:48 |
| brunner | is the AMD64 branch considered unstable or something? | 04:48 |
| mikebot | Does anyone know why when I right-click and press `re-index' on tracker, it just disappears? | 04:48 |
| brunner | my web host installed x86 on a quad Xeon system for some reason | 04:48 |
| * flyback is going to try to sleep, thx all | 04:48 | |
| Sebboh | amenado, thanks for the knee-jerk manpage recommendation. Actually, my linux system works fine. I was suggesting that ##java can't help Ubuntu users install java. | 04:48 |
| amenado | Chris|-> did you remember paying for one? any indications like antennae input ports? | 04:48 |
| * Pelo sneaks up behind unperson and bangs a gong | 04:48 | |
| Sebboh | see you guys | 04:48 |
| Pelo | flyback, sleep well | 04:48 |
| timandtom | I have a .lexe file, but it won't open. Whats the command to make a file executable in terminal? | 04:48 |
| Chris| | amenado, i do have a tv ant, but not sure if i have a tv tuner | 04:48 |
| ubuntung-pinoy | amenado: Yes.. and it pings fine | 04:48 |
| Gman99999 | makgyver well i dont know what my wife did she pressed this odd key combination to reboot the computer once it did, osx never booted up again, I booted the computer with the osx cd to run the disk utility but it coulddnt fix the hard drive, at all | 04:49 |
| unperson | Pelo, :-P | 04:49 |
| Pelo | timandtom, is this a windows executable files ? those don't run in linux unless you use wine | 04:49 |
| Makgyver | reset the PRAM | 04:49 |
| amenado | Chris|-> possibly not, if its just a monitor, receiver could be additional | 04:49 |
| Makgyver | what Mac is it? | 04:49 |
| timandtom | Pelo: Nope, lexe is Linux executable(Or so I was told last time I had this problem) | 04:49 |
| MEtaLpREs_ | is there something wrong with the ubuntu irc server? i keep getting disconnected and timing out, none of my other servers are having this problem | 04:49 |
| Gman99999 | makgyver so then i took out the hard drive and put in another one, and then i put the hard drive i took out into the portable hard drive enclosure just to see if it worked at all, since i thought it was probably broken | 04:50 |
| amenado | ubuntung-pinoy-> then your configs for smtp may need reconfiguring | 04:50 |
| deformation | ok guys | 04:50 |
| Chris| | amenado, how would i know for sure? | 04:50 |
| deformation | here is it http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/64632/ | 04:50 |
| Orbixx | I'm having an issue with Ubuntu recently. Ubuntu appears to believe it receives or emulates an up arrow keypress every 5 seconds, without or without a keyboard plugged in, even with a fresh installation and a Live CD. | 04:50 |
| unperson | Makgyver, Gman99999, Heh, it seems like every mac solution begins with "reset the PRAM" | 04:50 |
| Jangari | is there a way to restart to a particular line of the menu.lst from a command line? Something using $ shutdown -r, perhaps? | 04:50 |
| gleaken | is there anyone who can help me with the synaptics touch pad issue | 04:50 |
| amenado | Chris|-> is this for an extra card? for a laptop? wht hardware do you have? | 04:50 |
| timandtom | Pelo: Either way, I know this file works :) Used it before, but I need to set it up again because I reinstalled 7.10 | 04:50 |
| ubuntung-pinoy | amenado: if one is using default ports, does one need to append " :portnumber " to the server name? | 04:50 |
| Pelo | timandtom, sorry I just missread, put it on the desktop, open a terminal , cd Desktop, sudo chmod +x filename, sudo ./filename | 04:50 |
| Makgyver | unperson, it is the best way to eliminate about 90% or all end user issues | 04:50 |
| gleaken | The trackpoint gets it's mouse buttons disabled but the track point still works | 04:50 |

| Chris| | amenado, i'd like to use tvtime, but not sure if i have the tuner, i want to watch tv on my computer | 04:51 |
| amenado | ubuntung-pinoy-> dont know what app you are using, | 04:51 |
| RoC_MasterMind | Jangari, if you want to change the default OS in grub, change it | 04:51 |
| Dr_willis | timandtom, just 'chmod +x whatever' then to set it as being exexutable then run it with ./whatever | 04:51 |
| Gman99999 | makgyver windows wouldnt read it or mount it nor would osx but ubuntu would and now im surprised and quite pleased that it works so far | 04:51 |
| tawt | what's the best app to use for Python? | 04:51 |
| stuart | hey guys, my update-manager is broken :( | 04:51 |
| pawan | hi | 04:51 |
| Chris| | amenado, i have a hp media pc | 04:51 |
| tawt | stuart, what's the problem? | 04:51 |
| Makgyver | Ubuntu will see it as a raw disk | 04:51 |
| amenado | Chris|-> what hardware do you have? a pci card? pcmia? | 04:51 |
| stuart | I get an error that says "importerror: cannot import name Widget from gtk" | 04:51 |
| unperson | Makgyver, Yeah, so it seems. I don't really understand what the PRAM does, so it's just black magic to me. | 04:51 |
| timandtom | Dr_Willis: Thanks. Is there a way to make it so it STAYS executable? | 04:51 |
| deformation | @Pelo @amenado http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/64632/ | 04:51 |
| Jangari | RoC_MasterMind: it ain't that, i have it set up just how i want it, but i want to be able to restart in windows but not have to wait for the grub to load to switch over | 04:51 |
| Makgyver | if you plug in the HDD in Mac OS Xand go to Disk utility you will/should be able to see/repair it | 04:52 |
| Chris| | amenado, i dont know that, how would i find out? | 04:52 |
| gleaken | stuart: Are you using the main repositories? if you are, you may want to change to a different one, if you need help, ask | 04:52 |
| Gman99999 | makgyver I tried it again on osx and it won't read the hard drive, so is there anything i can do, should i pull the files i want off of the hard drive and then format it? | 04:52 |
| amenado | Chris|-> you proly have to dig that info from hp web site | 04:52 |
| Jangari | sadly still some programs for which i need windows | 04:52 |
| Pelo | RoC_MasterMind, gksu gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst , in the first 20 lies, there is a line default = 0 that the number or hte entry to boot first, the numering starts with 0 -1 - 2 -3 etc | 04:52 |
| ubuntung-pinoy | amenado: Evolution | 04:52 |
| Gman99999 | makgyver is there some special magical way to do that or is a simple format from ubuntu going to work? | 04:52 |
| Chris| | alright amenado so i'd search for what exactly? | 04:52 |
| Pelo | deformation, what do you need to do again ? | 04:52 |
| ][AcHm2][ | for what no ip my eth0 | 04:52 |
| tawt | what's the best app to use for Python? | 04:52 |
| Gman99999 | makgyver or is there a way i can still salvage the hard drive? | 04:52 |
| Makgyver | Gman99999, pull the files and write the Disk to Zero, then put it in the Mac as format it in disk utility | 04:52 |
| ][AcHm2][ | i have install 8.04 | 04:52 |
| Gman99999 | makgyver ok | 04:53 |
| RoC_MasterMind | Jangari, maybe set windows as the default but when you want ubuntu select ubuntu, that way if you just reboot from within ubuntu it will go into windows by itself | 04:53 |
| Makgyver | I would try disk utility in Mac OS first | 04:53 |
| stuart | gleaken: it doesn't run at all. it says ""importerror: cannot import name Widget from gtk" | 04:53 |
| obf214 | !mp3 -> obf214 | 04:53 |

| Gman99999 | makgyver ever heard of something like this happening before? | 04:53 |
| Jangari | so the answer is no; i have to either change the default order, or wait for grub to load, i can't restart from a shell to a particular OS? | 04:54 |
| Pelo | deformation, doyou see it on your desktop ? | 04:54 |

| tawt | stuart, i'm not familiar with that | 04:55 |
| RoC_MasterMind | Jangari, it's either sit and wait, or set a default. | 04:55 |
| amenado | deformation-> yes, ubuntu will natively mount ext3 File systems, for ntfs, you have to use ntfs-3g | 04:55 |
| stuart | tawt, k, now worries | 04:55 |
| deformation | @Pelo it does not show in Thunar | 04:55 |

| Pelo | deformation, I haven't had much experince with the new policy kit , you'll have to figure that one out yourself | 05:02 |
| Crshman | ok...if no one knows how to fix my issue.....where do i find logs for compiz so i can attempt to figure this out on my own? | 05:03 |
| samliu | !tardy | 05:03 |
| The_Ringmaster | anyone got sound to work on a lenovo y410? | 05:03 |
| ubotu | Sorry, I don't know anything about tardy - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi | 05:03 |
| maco | TaRDy: security updates from old versions will still happen, and itll be in the ports, but no official support on future releases | 05:03 |
| samliu | http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=3268995 | 05:03 |
| evilbug | Pelo- i tried doing a clean install yesterday after the upgrade failed and messed up my system,and the clean install didn't work either.it gave me a bunch of errors and saying that the disc was corrupt.i had the disc checked after it was burnt + twice with the disc check in the boot menu and it came up fine. | 05:03 |
| samliu | I followed that | 05:03 |
| deformation | @pelo you're right :) Thanks anyway guys | 05:03 |
| evilbug | evilbug- any idea why? | 05:03 |
| Pelo | Crshman, restate your issue periodicaly, it's a busy channel and it's been a long day | 05:03 |
| timandtom | Pelo: Theres quite a few, any idea which one? | 05:03 |
| samliu | and got the wusb300n working in 2 minutes | 05:03 |
| Crshman | hi all, i'm running hardy and for some reason when i open firefox compiz.real shoots upto 100% cpu usage and kills my system....any ideas? | 05:03 |
| tokyoahead | guys can someone help me getting sound from my SoundMAX soundcard on my laptop? the external volume control works fine with the linux volume slider, but I cannot hear any sound... | 05:03 |
| deformation | Thanks @amenado | 05:03 |
| RoC_MasterMind | ChuckMac, gksu "update-manager -d" | 05:03 |
| samliu | so I highly recommend it | 05:03 |
| drivetrax | There is a channel #compiz-Fusion... they are very helpful | 05:03 |
| Tweaker | Thanks Im out | 05:03 |
| aardvarken | tokyoahead: is the correct device selected in the sound settings? | 05:04 |
| Crshman | Pelo: i believe it...i thank everyone here for all their help...i know new releases cause a lot of stress for everyone! | 05:04 |
| RoC_MasterMind | Crshman, try also asking that on #compiz-fusion | 05:04 |
| crdlb | xkcdr0ckz: if you use @ in front of my nick, I don't get a hilight | 05:04 |
| mouseclone | anyone have an update on the 2.6.24-12 kernel breaking sound? | 05:04 |
| amenado | deformation-> you're welcome | 05:04 |
| aardvarken | tokyoahead: for instance, my surround sound car can select front, back, etc. | 05:04 |
| mouseclone | Audigy card more so | 05:04 |
| samliu | btw tardy, its a draft n card so if you ever get an n router it works, plus its not that expensive | 05:04 |
| Crshman | RoC_MasterMind: Will do | 05:04 |
| maco | how do i use gfxboot? the howto i found on the forums is from dapper and didn't work on the gfxboot theme i found | 05:04 |
| samliu | orinoco cards are great too but expensive | 05:04 |
| Pelo | timandtom, you're looking for a library , so one that starts with lib and check for the version number I think it was 2 | 05:04 |
| manixtate | screen flashed but no change | 05:04 |
| Qrawl_ | the new Ubuntu is very nice | 05:04 |
| tokyoahead | aardvarken: I think so. I chose ALSA for all of them, Autodeteect would not let me hear the test-sound | 05:04 |
| TaRDy | maco thank you, I was under the impression ubuntu and sun had been working together to help support | 05:04 |
| ChuckMac | RoC_MasterMind, have done that several times with no success. | 05:04 |
| Nemes | I have a folder where SSH users are uploading files. Does anybody know how I could to be mailed every time a new file is uploaded or an existent one is modified? I don't even know where I could start searching | 05:04 |
| RoC_MasterMind | samliu, my orinoco was $20 on ebay! | 05:04 |
| ezzieyguywu1 | what script is hardy using for suspend? i don't think its /etc/acpi/sleep.sh because it doesn't recognize any changes to /etc/default/acpi-support. I think i read somewhere that hardy would use pmutils for suspend? | 05:04 |
| xtknight | Qrawl_, i like it too, just some small perks | 05:04 |
| maco | TaRDy: sun now does x86_64 though | 05:04 |
| RoC_MasterMind | ChuckMac, that is sad, sorry to hear. | 05:04 |
| xkcdr0ckz | i know, i was responding to Pelo. hah. | 05:04 |
| maco | TaRDy: i think | 05:04 |
| Qrawl_ | xtknight, like what | 05:05 |
| samliu | really? | 05:05 |
| ffm | Is there any reason that I would not want to have security updates install automatically for a home machine? | 05:05 |
| samliu | I was looking for an orinoco gold card classic | 05:05 |
| samliu | it was like | 05:05 |
| Pelo | evilbug, why didyou reinstall ? I don'T recall I though you were doig fine execpt for a few little issues | 05:05 |
| samliu | $150-200 | 05:05 |
| FloodBot2 | samliu: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 05:05 |
| RoC_MasterMind | ffm, no. | 05:05 |
| Vlet | ffm: no | 05:05 |
| gleaken | stuart: when you query (CTRL-F) for python in synaptics, you will see a LOT of stuff, we are looking for the entry that says just "python", it should be a wrapper package for python 2.4 or 2.5, BTW, I assume you are gutsy? | 05:05 |
| Pelo | xkcdr0ckz, I missed it | 05:05 |
| RoC_MasterMind | samliu, I said silver! | 05:05 |
| figuringout | i was trying to get fretsonfire(the guitar hero clone) working on my ubuntu 7.10. now I get this error "OSError: glut: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory" | 05:05 |
| ffm | Vlet and RoC_MasterMind , then why is that not the default? | 05:05 |
| ffm | Vlet and RoC_MasterMind , and it won't reboot w/o prompting, even so, right? | 05:05 |
| aardvarken | does anyone know why the esperanto support does nothing? | 05:05 |
| RoC_MasterMind | ffm, typically your machine shouldn't be doing things you haven't asked it to. | 05:06 |
| NIghtFire | anyone here installed the 8.04 upgrade yet ? | 05:06 |
| evilbug | Pelo- i was doing fine for a bit,but then i had too many errors at startup and apps wouldn't launch for some reason.but any clue to why the clean install wouldn't work? | 05:06 |
| Pelo | aardvarken, cause no one speaks iit anymore ? | 05:06 |
| aardvarken | lol Pelo | 05:06 |
| RoC_MasterMind | ffm, this isn't windows, attitudes are different, configure it that way if you want it. | 05:06 |
| maco | TaRDy: the sun servers i use at school dont say SPARC when i uname -a them, at least | 05:06 |
| stuart | gleaken: yep Gutsy. OK found it. 2.5.1 | 05:06 |
| ffm | RoC_MasterMind, Ok. How about presenting the option during install, since that improves security. | 05:06 |
| stuart | gleaken: Mark for re-install ? | 05:06 |
| ffm | RoC_MasterMind, I realize that. | 05:06 |
| timandtom | Pelo: I get an error trying to load "libstdc++.so.5". In Synaptic, theres 5 that start with libstdc++5 | 05:06 |
| Pelo | evilbug, ok when you say clean install is there another os on this computer ? | 05:06 |
| ezzieyguywu1 | what script is hardy using for suspend? i don't think its /etc/acpi/sleep.sh because it doesn't recognize any changes to /etc/default/acpi-support. I think i read somewhere that hardy would use pmutils for suspend? | 05:06 |
| xkcdr0ckz | @Pelo: after clicking on the Compiz tab in Appearance, i get "The Composite extension is not available". next step? | 05:07 |
| Pelo | timandtom, sounds like a winneer | 05:07 |
| simtower | my ubuntu is broken after update | 05:07 |
| RoC_MasterMind | ffm, I don't want to see that as a default, but I think your idea is part of the forward-thinking Ubuntu needs. There is an idea tracker on ubuntu's website. | 05:07 |
| crdlb | xkcdr0ckz: please join #compiz-fusion | 05:07 |
| Crshman | is there a way to _more_ forcefully kill a process than "sudo killall" ? | 05:07 |
| xkcdr0ckz | @Pelo: when clicking on Normal or Extra for Visual Effects. | 05:07 |
| Pelo | xkcdr0ckz, re-install the xserver-xgl package you remove earlier | 05:07 |
| ffm | RoC_MasterMind, Mindstorm? | 05:07 |
| RoC_MasterMind | Crshman, yes...killall -9 | 05:07 |
| maco | ffm: ideastorm | 05:07 |
| evilbug | Pelo- win xp,but i don't see why it would conflict with hardy since gutsy installed just fine after. | 05:07 |
| patifa | crashanddie: -9 flag | 05:07 |
| maco | ffm: this isnt legos :P | 05:07 |
| gleaken | stuart: yes, but before you do, make sure that it is listed as installed, at the bare minimum, the "python" and "python2.5" packages | 05:07 |
| crdlb | Pelo: he doesn't need that in hardy | 05:07 |
| Pelo | Crshman, if it is a gui app , xkill and then click on it | 05:07 |
| Pelo | crdlb, ok you take care of it | 05:08 |
| crdlb | Pelo: composite is just disabled because gutsy's restricted drivers manager disabled it for him | 05:08 |
| x1250 | timandtom: you have to install libstdc++5 package | 05:08 |
| Crshman | RoC_MasterMind: that worked thanks! | 05:08 |
| simtower | could any help to fix my ubuntu stuck at login? | 05:08 |
| timandtom | x1250: Thanks :) | 05:08 |
| Crshman | Pelo: thanks for the suggestion! | 05:08 |
| patifa | just don't sudo kill the wrong thing, system will crash if a certain few are killed | 05:08 |
| stuart | gleaken: yep they are. Here goes *click* | 05:08 |
| mouseclone | simtower: what up? password? | 05:08 |
| Pelo | evilbug, does the live cd work for you ? do you hve any data from ubuntu you need to save ? | 05:08 |
| gleaken | stuart: I have python-apport and python-apt also installed | 05:08 |
| TaRDy | maco, sun has many servers available and some are SPARC | 05:08 |
| timandtom | x1250: To be installed: gcc-3.3-base. That sound right? | 05:08 |
| simtower | mouseclone: i updated to 8.04 now x locks up after I login | 05:08 |
| gleaken | stuart: see if you have those as well, don't worry about a reinstall, it should be harmless, considering your current situation | 05:09 |
| RoC_MasterMind | Crshman, it's the difference between asking the process to exit and having the kernel terminate it and free it's memory | 05:09 |
| maco | TaRDy: oh. i thought perhaps they had discontinued SPARC and were going to do just 64bit now | 05:09 |
| ffm | macd, Brainstorm. We're both wrong. | 05:09 |
| TaRDy | thank you samliu for the info, I had seen that but it is a little more than i want to be spending | 05:09 |
| maco | anyone here have experience making gfxboot go? | 05:09 |
| mandje | booting the live-cd. can you add options using [esc]? | 05:09 |
| simtower | how can i have ubuntu stop the startup application | 05:09 |
| Crshman | RoC_MasterMind: got it! i'll keep that in mind last time! | 05:09 |
| maco | ffm: oh right, thats dell's :P | 05:09 |
| mouseclone | simtower: ctrl+atl+F1 and you can log in fine there? | 05:09 |
| gleaken | stuart: also python-brlapi and python-cairo, those you may not need but they are probably installed already | 05:09 |
| evilbug | Pelo- the live cd works flawlessly and no,i don't have anything to save since i just installed gutsy :) | 05:09 |
| simtower | yes mouseclone | 05:09 |
| ffm | maco, Then there's storm, canonical's database thingie. | 05:09 |
| Crshman | THANKS to all those in here that are helping everyone.....i'm sure you don't hear this too often so i'm just saying thanks on behalf of all the frustrated new users! | 05:10 |
| gleaken | stuart: if you are having problems downloading because of the slow servers, we can change your repositories to a faster set | 05:10 |
| Pelo | maco, you need to uninstall grub and install a grub-gfxpackage , check in the forum there are instructions | 05:10 |
| mouseclone | simtower: video card? | 05:10 |
| maco | Pelo: i did that, but the forum instructions dont work | 05:10 |
| Pelo | maco, actualy orry, this should work instructions for installing on ubuntu. | 05:10 |

| FloodBot2 | Pelo: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 05:10 |
| andylcp | :( | 05:10 |
| stuart | gleaken: ok, are they all included in the wrapper package ? | 05:10 |
| maco | Pelo: im guessing because theyr from dapper-time not now | 05:10 |
| gleaken | stuart: unfortunately, I don't think so | 05:10 |
| stuart | gleaken: yes that might be an idea. It hasn't even started downloading yet | 05:10 |

| ezzieyguywu1 | does nobody know? | 05:11 |
| maco | Pelo: alright... | 05:11 |
| ffm | Crshman, Much appreciated. | 05:11 |
| gleaken | stuart: go to settings->repositories | 05:11 |
| patifa | Nemes: I don't think there's anything built-in to do that | 05:11 |
| stuart | gleaken: "The repository information has changed. You have to click on the "Reload" button for your changes to take effect" | 05:11 |
| gleaken | stuart: then, when that opens up, there is a "Download from:" entry, correct? | 05:11 |

| gleaken | stuart: ok, did you select a better mirror? | 05:12 |

Im in Hardy now and I want to attempt another install of Kubuntu (it failed last time in Gutsy when I did sudo apt-get install Kubuntu, I just have the working splash screen) can you advise what is my best course of action? | 05:12 |
| mouseclone | LSG: yes.. might be OpenGL | 05:12 |
| samliu | LSG, are you using nvidia drivers? | 05:12 |
| stuart | gleaken: I haven't got that far yet. I clicked 'reload' and it's reloading (slooowly) | 05:12 |
| simtower | mouseclone ctrl-alt-backspace works but it lcks up again if i login again | 05:12 |
| LSG | samliu: What the hell? No...ATI | 05:12 |
| Gman99999 | unperson how do i get rid of that? | 05:13 |
| timandtom | Pelo x1250: Ah, shweet, everything works good now :) Thanks | 05:13 |
| samliu | oh well lucky then, nvidia drivers have been a b*tch | 05:13 |
| Pelo | MrGnu, I would wait a few days before doign that , the servers are very busy , and it is sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop | 05:13 |

| ffm | Hey, can someone tell me what the default for updates is? Does it just download them automatically, or does it do _nothing_ by default? | 05:14 |
| patifa | simplexio: There are bugs... | 05:15 |
| ffm | !repeat | ezzieyguywu1 | 05:15 |

| Pelo | maco, the name means nothing , it was just so I wouldnt confuse it with the other ones I had when I made it | 05:15 |
| manixtate | alt f2 will not work for me argh | 05:15 |
| ffm | simplexio, Not broken, but some have issues. | 05:15 |
| LSG | mouseclone: Any idea if there's some fix or something? Whenever i open the trash can it takes like 3 seconds to fully open | 05:15 |
| RoC_MasterMind | samliu, adacious has a refugee theme that looks like XMMS but wastes space in the playlist. | 05:15 |
| maco | Pelo: im also afraid past use of startupmanager may have made things umm..bad | 05:15 |
| servlsuser | hey noob here just instaled hardy on a compaq desktop running a gig of ram amd 64 3500+ install goes fine hardy boots up gives me the login screen i put in my username my password it tries to log on then i get thrown back to the log on screen it isnt an invalid password it just resets | 05:15 |
| TaRDy | Gman99999, any directory paths should have a \ before a space in a directory name | 05:15 |
| ezzieyguywu1 | its hard to believe that nobody knows this when suspend has been an issue since fiesty | 05:15 |
| mouseclone | simtower: I am unsure of what to tell you... you could try reinstalling GDM and Gnome... but I don't know if it is your drivers or not... | 05:15 |
| patifa | nm simplexio, sorry about that, nevermind my name mentions | 05:15 |

| ffm | ezzieyguywu1, please try another venue. | 05:15 |
| maco | Pelo: oh ok. gentoo's wiki on gfxboot said message. was the prefix so i thought it might matter | 05:15 |
| samliu | RoC: I was looking at that today and ended up downloading one of the 5 or 6 available themes from gnome-look | 05:16 |
| Tweaker | Ok, well that package didnt work, why is that? | 05:16 |
| TaRDy | Gman99999, sorry thats all i have to offer :-/ | 05:16 |
| mouseclone | simtower: I think that there is an Xorg config tool as well that you might try. I cant remember | 05:16 |
| patifa | Nemes: Best bet is to use the logging facility of sftp-server | 05:16 |
| Pelo | maco, the file can named anything | 05:16 |
| patifa | and work from there | 05:16 |
| samliu | I hope people get on it and start making more themes haha | 05:16 |
| evilbug | Pelo- and the command to remove the startup volume icons off my desktop? (i forgot it X_X) | 05:16 |
| simtower | maybe i will just reinstall from scratch mouseclone | 05:16 |
| ezzieyguywu1 | i don't know what you mean by another venu, but i think i'll wait for someone who may have an answer | 05:16 |
| Gman99999 | i still got the same error message, which is weird because i deleted that file just a few minutes ago | 05:16 |

| M1dn1ght | Hey guys - I've managed to get Ubuntu running from the live cd and was able to install by choosing "noapic" and "acpi=off" as well as booting into safe graphics mode. Problem is, when I try to boot the newly installed OS, it is freezing in the same place the installer was (the ubuntu logo with the scroll bar). Is there some way to transfer the options I set to install to my regular install? | 05:50 |
| alien | mouseclone: ^ | 05:50 |
| Tweaker | Whoot ok I got it to play vids, but when I use pidgin thats when it Freezes I think | 05:50 |
| cky | Gman99999: You may need to run "apt-get --reinstall install sudo" or some such (I don't know the "official" way to reinstall a package, sorry). | 05:50 |
| M1dn1ght | Sorry about the length of that... | 05:50 |
| roachmmflhyr | mheath: apt-get install kernel-headers....package is not available | 05:50 |
| Co2 | alien, what video card do you have? | 05:50 |
| mouseclone | anyone seen a danger in dropping back to 2.6.24-11 kernel? | 05:50 |
| alien | Co2: nvidia go 7600 good laptop card installed to | 05:51 |
| alien | Co2: good to go | 05:51 |
| Gman99999 | maco ok so how do i install it, how in the heck did i un-install it? I just used it a few mintues ago before this crap started | 05:51 |
| maco | Gman99999: huh? it should just have lines explaining what the columns mean and then the last line says "ii" in the first column and then sudo (the name), then the version, then an explanation | 05:51 |
| Co2 | ok so you have the driver installed? | 05:51 |
| alien | Co2: yes | 05:51 |
| Gman99999 | maco Im going to pastebin it for you | 05:51 |
| alien | Co2: it was restricted or something | 05:51 |
| Co2 | ok | 05:51 |
| maco | Gman99999: ok | 05:51 |
| alien | Co2: but i have it updated and enabled | 05:51 |
| Co2 | ok | 05:51 |
| Co2 | gogo | 05:51 |
| Co2 | goto | 05:51 |
| simtower | i tried to upgrade but it just broke my system | 05:51 |
| cky | M1dn1ght: Yes, hit escape when the GRUB prompt appears. Hit "e" to edit the kernel command line. Add those options in. Boot. | 05:51 |
| alien | :P | 05:51 |
| simtower | maybe you should install from scratch too | 05:51 |
| erimar77 | what's the install size of server edition | 05:52 |
| alien | Co2: so what now | 05:52 |
| cky | M1dn1ght: Then, edit /boot/grub/menu.lst and add those options to ("kopt", I think?) and rerun update-grub. | 05:52 |
| Co2 | alien, applications > system > compiz fusion icon | 05:52 |
| roachmmflhyr | I cannot connect to jp.archive.ubuntu.com is there something wrong here? I cannot use apt-get install | 05:52 |
| Tanaric | Hello everyone, I just tried upgrading from my existing Gutsy Desktop installation. I got two errors during the upgrade relating to network manager, which I foolishly didn't write down because the popup said installation would continue. The graphical upgrader has stopped at the end of the "Installating Upgrades" step, with the terminal saying simply "Errors were encountered during processing: network-manager (newline) network-manager- | 05:52 |
| maco | cky: boot would be the letter "b" | 05:52 |
| alien | Co2: let me see | 05:52 |
| Co2 | that will put a compiz icon in sys tray | 05:52 |
| M1dn1ght | thanks cky - I tried that, so I am thinking perhaps it was this safe-graphics mode (which I got with f4 during install) that helped me here? | 05:52 |
| johnny_ | anybody else get the issue with symlink to /usr/lib/libGL.so.1 failing and causing the upgrade to stop completely? | 05:52 |
| Tweaker | Why is it Pidgin freezes when I watch streaming video? | 05:52 |
| cky | maco: Yes, eventually have to hit "b", after editing the command line. :-P | 05:52 |
| juvi | jack | 05:52 |
| maco | Tanaric: it probably couldnt get the nm packages due to slow repos, just apt-get them | 05:52 |
| Gman99999 | maco http://pastebin.com/d43b020c6 | 05:52 |
| maco | cky: i meant to say that to midnight. sorry | 05:52 |
| alien | Co2: nothing liek that under apps :( | 05:53 |
| alien | Co2: gnome | 05:53 |
| Tanaric | maco: Sure, but the upgrade window is stuck -- it thinks it's still going but it's not. Is it safe to force-quit it and run apt? | 05:53 |
| maco | Gman99999: see the last line where it says "ii"? that means its installed | 05:53 |
| alien | Co2: but i looked in all spots | 05:53 |
| tokyoahead | guys my menus and email lists in Thunderbird are extremely small... firefox is OK though. how can I change it? in the preference is a display-tab with fonht sizes but that changes o0nly the email text, not the menus etc | 05:53 |
| alien | only | 05:53 |
| Co2 | oh your using gnome | 05:53 |
| Gman99999 | maco ok | 05:53 |
| alien | Co2: advanced desktop settings | 05:53 |
| cky | M1dn1ght: That is definitely possible. | 05:53 |
| Gman99999 | maco so what to do now ? lol | 05:53 |
| alien | Co2: there is that for compiz config settings manager, but like i said whatever i enable i see no eye candy :P | 05:53 |
| M1dn1ght | Yes - I got to that point - I added "noapic" and "acpi=off" after pressing e, and then pressing b to boot it still freezes, so I am thinking perhaps that it was not those options, but the safe mode I selected with F4? | 05:53 |
| maco | Tanaric: ooo yeah quit it and then install those two packages, then run "sudo dpkg --configure -a" to finish configuring everything | 05:53 |
| Co2 | you need to change your window manager from gnome to compiz | 05:54 |
| ubuntu_ | sweet a chat thing cool | 05:54 |
| Tanaric | Great, thanks maco! | 05:54 |
| M1dn1ght | If this is so, is there a method to do such a thing with main installation? | 05:54 |
| cky | M1dn1ght: So do safe mode. Then, pick "resume" when the menu comes up, and see how far you get then. | 05:54 |
| alien | Co2: how | 05:54 |
| maco | Gman99999: cky suggested reinstalling. thatd mean reboot and choose recovery mode from the menu and then run "aptitude reinstall sudo" | 05:54 |
| Gman99999 | maco should this be reported as a bug? | 05:54 |
| Co2 | i did it with the compiz fusion icon | 05:54 |
| alien | Co2: i dont have one ;( | 05:54 |
| Co2 | i right clicked the icon in the sys tray and changed the settings in there.. | 05:54 |
| * cky learnt how to reinstall a package. Thanks maco! :-) | 05:55 | |
| Gman99999 | ok | 05:55 |
| Tweaker | Why does pidgin freeze when I stream videos? Is there a problem wrong with the codec? | 05:55 |
| M1dn1ght | After I press escape at grub, is this the location where I must select safe mode? the boot loader is different from install | 05:55 |
| Tanaric | maco: Actually, it's completely frozen -- keyboard and mouse are not responding. Ctrl+Alt+Backspace isn't even killing X. Any advice? | 05:55 |
| Meshezabeel | most dvds will not play under ubuntu, yet some play, I am guessing it is some sort of codec problem as they are good discs and the drive itself is good. Any ideas what I need to install? | 05:55 |
| alien | Co2: hey i havent updated anything in ubuntu yet | 05:55 |
| maco | Gman99999: unless you can tell what happened to make the configuration file go missing...like if you can say "when i installed <program> it deleted my /etc/sudoers" no | 05:55 |
| cky | M1dn1ght: Yes, that's where you put your cursor at safe mode, hit "e" to add those acpi parameters, and then boot as usual. | 05:55 |
| alien | Co2: i have 210 updates to update | 05:55 |
| Co2 | try that. | 05:55 |
| alien | Co2: some of the stuff in there is compiz .. | 05:55 |
| alien | Co2: last time i did it mesed up my grub | 05:55 |
| Gman99999 | maco ok I see | 05:55 |

| Gman99999 | ? | 05:56 |
| maco | Tanaric: if the kernel's responding, that take you to a text console | 05:56 |
| macd | alien, 'sudo apt-get install fusion-icon' after you update. | 05:56 |
| Tanaric | maco: nothin'. | 05:56 |
| maco | Gman99999: you could make a new one...from recovery mode | 05:56 |
| alien | macd: ok | 05:56 |

| B_166-ER-X | to the 2 guys who tried to help me with my Nvidia -hardy- problem... well, i rebooted...then at the loggin screen the Font was REAALLYY Tiny, and the reste liek 800X600 ...I had to go back and reconfigure xorg so i could enter my password (for some reason the language was mixed up) , and then i logged in. Re-checked the 'Activate' nvidia drivers...rebooted, andi get a black screen beside of the login screen now. | 05:57 |
| macd | roachmmflhyr, for searching packages, 'apt-cache search packagename' works well ;) | 05:57 |
| cky | M1dn1ght: No, sorry, because Fn+F10 doesn't perform that function on my laptop. :-P | 05:57 |

| Co2 | macd warned me not to do that lmao | 05:57 |
| maco | Gman99999: but if you run "visudo" from recovery mode, that should take you through it. <esc>:wq is save in visudo | 05:57 |

| Tweaker | Why does streaming videos freeze my IM client? | 05:58 |
| roachmmflhyr | macd: thanks | 05:58 |
| Tanaric | maco: Nope, definitely not responding. I suspect it's just hotplug that's shut down because of the half-completed upgrade, though -- I use one USB keyboard/mouse for both machines. | 05:58 |
| Gman99999 | maco I have no idea how to use visudo lol maybe reinstalling it would be easier | 05:58 |
| macd | roachmmflhyr, or -server, etc if thats what you have | 05:58 |
| maco | cky: it is, but does that extend to visudo? | 05:58 |
| cky | maco: Yes. | 05:58 |
| maco | Gman99999: reinstall should generate the right thing | 05:58 |
| Gman99999 | visudo I was trying to change something in it earlier and I believe this is how it got all messed up | 05:58 |

| === c is now known as Charitwo | ||
| maco | cky: ah didnt know that. i changed editor and bash's input mode to vi a while back | 05:59 |
| cky | maco: Maybe not anymore (I just strings'd visudo). It used to. | 05:59 |
| Meshezabeel | mouseclone, any idea which gstreamer package? I have most of them installed | 05:59 |
| roachmmflhyr | macd: thanks | 05:59 |
| cky | maco: No, I don't know if it has anything to do with the bash input mode (although I'm a "set -o vi" user myself). | 05:59 |
| B_166-ER-X | pawan, welcometo the club | 05:59 |
| szx0 | I'm curious if anyone here has used VirtualBox? | 05:59 |
| pawan | thanks | 06:00 |
| patifa | szx0 yep | 06:00 |
| cky | maco: But it used to use sensible-editor because it drove me up the wall, and reminded me that I needed to run "update-alternatives --config editor". | 06:00 |
| * pclynch smiles while upgrading to 8.04 | 06:00 | |
| szx0 | patifa, What is the seamless mode like? | 06:00 |
| maco | cky: no i mean, i set $EDITOR=vi and set -o vi | 06:00 |
| pawan | where is the club | 06:00 |
| cky | maco: Like I said, strings seems to suggest it doesn't do that now. Maybe. | 06:00 |
| roachmmflhyr | macd: package doesnt exist | 06:00 |
| mouseclone | Meshezabeel: you will also have to know if the DVD is DRM or some type of encryption.. might not be supported by linux | 06:00 |
| cky | maco: Got it. | 06:00 |
| macd | !source | 06:00 |
| ubotu | You can easily fetch a package's source with apt-get. See: http://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/apt-howto/ch-sourcehandling.en.html | 06:00 |
| szx0 | patifa, does it really feel like a blend of two O/S ? | 06:00 |
| maco | cky: i only know one other person that does set -o vi | 06:00 |
| macd | roachmmflhyr, that source line was directed at you | 06:01 |
| patifa | running windows as a guest, ubuntu as the host, seemless was pretty good. I can't remember if the window manager reconized the windows or not, though. | 06:01 |
| patifa | I broke my windows guest install, however. | 06:01 |
| cky | maco: I don't literally "set -o vi", I have "set editing-mode vi" in my .inputrc. But same diff. :-P | 06:01 |
| szx0 | patifa, k thx | 06:01 |
| maco | cky: combine with capslock-is-escape, and i get people all mixed up in my terminal; | 06:01 |
| patifa | But, literally, you get the guest OS's windows on your desktop | 06:01 |
| B_166-ER-X | problem with Nvidia and hardy..please. :/ (i have a black screen after boot at login screen) | 06:01 |
| m1dn1ght | Thank you Cky - this is doing the trick for me!! | 06:01 |
| lartza_ | Upgrade won't work | 06:01 |
| maco | cky: they hit capslock and end up in command mode and then cant figure out how to type | 06:02 |
| cky | maco: Well, if it's any reassurance for you, I use Dvorak, so that confuses most people too. :-P | 06:02 |
| cky | m1dn1ght: That's neat to know! :-) | 06:02 |
| m1dn1ght | However - can you recommend me perhaps where I may make this an automated process? | 06:02 |
| mouseclone | Meshezabeel: I think that GStreadm extra plugins fromt the add/remove will help if you do not already have it | 06:02 |
| cky | maco: Hahaha! | 06:02 |
| patifa | And the linux guest additions for 8.04 don't work anymore | 06:02 |
| maco | cky: worst was when i had SCIM set to use shift+space and theyd start typing in japanese in the terminal | 06:02 |

| MrGnu | I was just in the Amarok chat room, but people are either asleep or whatever | 06:04 |
| nickrud | brunner have you tried apache2ctl ? | 06:04 |
| brunner | apache2ctl?? how annoying | 06:04 |
| mouseclone | Dopewars is fun | 06:04 |
| alien | ok | 06:04 |
| InfernoX222 | B-166-ER-X: yah i just upgraded but cant go about 800x600 in either program for my rez | 06:04 |
| Tweaker | I love Dopewars :) | 06:04 |
| MrGnu | But this seems to be a hardy issue | 06:04 |
| brunner | nickrud: I just figured that out | 06:04 |

| MrGnu | Yeah, its just Amarok maco | 06:04 |
| milly1234 | i honestly think they should have put ff2 in hardy, and when ff3 became finalized give it as an upgrade option or something | 06:05 |
| mouseclone | alien: I'm also a fan of scorched 3D | 06:05 |
| maco | MrGnu: other sound apps are fine? | 06:05 |
| MrGnu | yeah | 06:05 |
| milly1234 | ff2 as default that is | 06:05 |
| m1dn1ght | Hax_Teh_Gibson - that movie was almost as bad as your nick :P | 06:05 |
| MrGnu | All other sound apps are ine | 06:05 |
| MrGnu | fine | 06:05 |
| B_166-ER-X | InfernoX222 i upgraded yesterday...finnaly had to reinstall completely..and now nvidia drivers wont load, and i have no sound at all :) (thats what i can an 'UPGRADE' ;) ) | 06:05 |

| InfernoX222 | B-166-ER-X: damn... i think i might have to do a reinstall... if i could revert to the drivers i had before i would be fine... but i cant do that | 06:05 |
| InfernoX222 | or rather i cant figure that out | 06:06 |
| B_166-ER-X | Firefox 3 barely supports addons.. | 06:06 |
| milly1234 | but it comes with neat features like... 100% CPU usage at random times, while freezing. | 06:06 |
| LSG | djdeep Hey i have the same card. Did you notice the animations are not as fluid as Gutsy's? Or is it just me? | 06:06 |
| mouseclone | B_166-ER-X: Sound is more than likely related to 2.6.24-12 kernel | 06:06 |
| HAX_TEH_GIBS0N | if anyone could help me, I'd be extremely grateful.... ;_; | 06:06 |
| MrGnu | lol terrible Milly1234 .. but I am sure that the addons situation has to change soon | 06:06 |
| smallfoot- | B_166-ER-X, firefox works fine for me with Adobe Flash, adblock, noscript | 06:07 |
| B_166-ER-X | mouseclone, ok.. is that deadly doc ? | 06:07 |
| Gman99999 | maco I can't figure out how to boot into recovery mode, its been changed since the last update, obviously to keep newbs out from wrecking stuff | 06:07 |
| MrGnu | Well, Im going to try to do a reboot Maco, I dont think Im going to get anywhere anytime soon | 06:07 |
| alien | waiitt | 06:07 |
| MrGnu | Adios all | 06:07 |

| alien | who said scorched 3d! | 06:07 |
| alien | is a genous | 06:07 |
| maco | MrGnu: are you on ubutnu or kubuntu? | 06:07 |
| mouseclone | B_166-ER-X: deadly doc? | 06:07 |
| MrGnu | Ubuntu | 06:07 |
| cky | Gman99999: You still just hit escape at GRUB, and pick option 2, like maco says. | 06:07 |

| B_166-ER-X | looking at how good goes my hardy upgrade, i think FF3 and Hardy goes well together. | 06:07 |
| maco | MrGnu: kde apps use a different way to access pulseaudio than ubuntu apps do | 06:07 |
| maco | MrGnu: er, than gnome ones do | 06:08 |

| alien | mouseclone: scorched 3d :P | 06:08 |

| milly1234 | ff3 looks good yes... but is far from stable. | 06:08 |
| maco | MrGnu: is the pulseaudio esd plugin enabled? | 06:08 |
| B_166-ER-X | mouseclone thx | 06:08 |
| mouseclone | alien: you get it? | 06:08 |
| Gman99999 | cky i picked the recovery mode in grub and it sends me to this screen and i have 3 options 1st one is to send me back to normal mode and i cant remember the rest | 06:08 |

| maco | Gman99999: youre not supposed to get gui | 06:09 |
| maco | Gman99999: just command line so you can fix things | 06:09 |
| MrGnu | maco: where can I see that? | 06:09 |
| LSG | djdeep: Damn...mine are really crappy now. | 06:09 |
| djdeep | the grafik fan runs fast why ? | 06:09 |
| cky | Gman99999: No, you don't get a GUI, it's just there to allow you to recover your system. | 06:09 |
| Gman99999 | maco lol ok i dont know what to do then | 06:09 |
| cky | maco: Yeah. | 06:09 |
| mouseclone | alien: a good scrolling shooter is Chromium | 06:09 |
| maco | MrGnu: *shrug* somewhere in amarok's settings | 06:09 |
| maco | Gman99999: run "visudo" | 06:09 |
| mouseclone | alien: it is very hard | 06:09 |
| lartza_ | Could someone help me? I upgraded to hardy(well it stopped) and now i did the not full dist upgrade what update manager suggested and it stopped to. "Couldn't install updates" just in beginning | 06:09 |
| cky | Gman99999: Pick option 2, then either "visudo" or "aptitude reinstall sudo". :-P | 06:09 |
| cky | Then "exit" and option 1 when you're done. | 06:09 |
| maco | Gman99999: or just run "aptitude reinstall sudo" to regenerate the config | 06:09 |
| LSG | djdeep: My card's fan is running normally... | 06:09 |
| cky | maco: Jinx! | 06:10 |
| maco | cky: ;) | 06:10 |
| maco | MrGnu: or "reboot" when you're done to...ya know...reboot | 06:10 |
| Gman99999 | so if i log right into recovery mode i can just type in aptitude reinstall sudo and it will just go to work? | 06:10 |
| Gman99999 | maco so if i log right into recovery mode i can just type in aptitude reinstall sudo and it will just go to work? | 06:10 |
| maco | Gman99999: should, yes | 06:10 |
| MrGnu | ok, I ll give that a shot thanks Maco | 06:10 |
| nickrud | Gman99999 if you altered /etc/sudoers, no | 06:10 |
| djdeep | with windows my grafik fan runs when i play games. but with ubuntu my grafik fan runs ever | 06:10 |
| mouseclone | lartza_: did you do an internet upgrade? or did you download the CD? | 06:10 |
| Gman99999 | nickrub i deleted it | 06:11 |
| B_166-ER-X | mouseclone could always go back to last kernel right ? | 06:11 |

| NW2190 | Hi, I'm trying to use gtkmm.h in C++, but I keep getting "window.cpp:2:19: error: gtkmm.h: No such file or directory" even though I have gtkmm-2.4-dev installed. How can I fix that? | 06:11 |
| mouseclone | B-155-ER-X: I don't have the last kernel installed | 06:11 |
| djdeep | in windows i cant here the fan when i only surf | 06:11 |
| LSG | djdeep: You mean like at a very high speed? | 06:11 |
| milly1234 | wifi seems to be flakey in Hardy | 06:11 |
| mouseclone | B-155-ER-X: I did a complete reinstall today | 06:11 |
| B_166-ER-X | ok | 06:11 |
| djdeep | yes i mean | 06:11 |
| blankhead | hey where do u go to or talk to to report bugs and stuff so that the developers know about it? | 06:11 |
| B_166-ER-X | so did i. | 06:11 |
| maco | laeg: havent looked at ufw, but im thinking thats for *inbound* but irc is *outbound* | 06:11 |
| nickrud | Gman99999 dpkg won't replace altered/removed files unless you tell it to explicitly; for yours I'd do sudo apt-get remove --purge sudo && apt-get install sudo | 06:11 |
| B_166-ER-X | but i cannot even log into my ubuntu now, all i get is a black screen after bootup :/ | 06:12 |
| cky | NW2190: You need to add gtkmm's includes directories to your -I option too. | 06:12 |
| maco | Gman99999: listn to him. he makes sense. | 06:12 |
| iRRVi | everything except audacity works with audio...tried everything i could find...from `killall esd`ing to messin with the sound preferences | 06:12 |
| Gman99999 | maco lol | 06:12 |
| LSG | djdeep: I have no idea what could be causing that, never happened to me. Sorry. | 06:12 |
| nickrud | Gman99999 and hope you have sudo in the package cache, network doesn't come up by default in recovery mode | 06:12 |
| Gman99999 | nickrud thank you | 06:12 |
| blankhead | B_166-ER-X: did u mess around with the xorg.conf file? | 06:12 |
| cky | NW2190: Put $(pkg-config --cflags gtkmm-2.4) to your build line. | 06:12 |
| maco | nickrud: i thought reinstall would act like that so it could fix things | 06:12 |
| mouseclone | lartza_: if you have a burner download the upgrade from http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/download | 06:12 |
| milly1234 | audacious seg faults on me... | 06:12 |
| maco | nickrud: it doesnt? weeeird | 06:12 |
| Gman99999 | nickrud how i configure the network? | 06:13 |
| cky | NW2190: If you're using a Makefile, just have "CFLAGS += $(shell pkg-config --cflags gtkmm-2.4)" | 06:13 |
| mouseclone | lartza_: and check the box for alternate desktop | 06:13 |
| B_166-ER-X | blankhead i did a 'dpkg reconfigure' because my keyboard was all mixed up (azerty) | 06:13 |
| milly1234 | I had to write my xorg.conf by hand in Hardy | 06:13 |
| lartza_ | mouseclone: In installing packets it said "Firefox closed unexpectedly" hard to tell exactly cause I use finnish system. It gave me many errors with different programs closing like volumecontrol.py and then it stopped by couldn't update packet, but I don't remember the name | 06:13 |
| cky | NW2190: You will then also need "LDFLAGS += $(shell pkg-config --libs gtkmm-2.4)" | 06:13 |
| maco | Gman99999: to start network run "/etc/init.d/networking start" | 06:13 |
| nickrud | maco the package management system assumes you knew what you were doing when you changed config files. So, it will leave any altered ones alone | 06:13 |
| djdeep | when i deaktivate the grafik card and test vesa the fan isnt fast | 06:13 |
| mouseclone | lartza_: this will prevent packet errors due to over utlized servers and lack of bandwidth | 06:13 |
| B_166-ER-X | milly1234 jsut remove the crossfade plugin with synaptic | 06:13 |
| InfernoX222 | does anyone know how to revert graphics drivers to teh hardy default? | 06:13 |

| johnny_ | anybody here had a problem with upgrades failing due to libGl.so.1 | 06:14 |
| nickrud | Gman99999 I think all I had to do was sudo /etc/init.d/networking start | 06:14 |
| NW2190 | cky: when I put the (pkg-config --cflags gtkmm-2.4) in I get an "unexpected '(' message. | 06:14 |

| djdeep | what grafik driver you have installed ? | 06:14 |
| cky | NW2190: You need a $ sign too. :-) | 06:14 |

| bubblegumtate | I just upgraded and flash sound has stopped working, anyone know a fix? | 06:14 |
| maco | Gman99999: and you wouldnt use sudo when you start networking in recovery mode | 06:14 |
| Gman99999 | nickrud ok i have a wired one thank you, this is an interesting learning experience for sure | 06:14 |
| blankhead | B_166-ER-X: i was just wondering cuz i know if u mess up the xorg.conf theres a way to fix it but sorry man | 06:14 |
| Gman99999 | maco yea i figured that lol | 06:15 |
| B_166-ER-X | np | 06:15 |
| mouseclone | lartza_: I did a live update once. I have always downloaded the alt CD from then on. With doing the live upgrade so close to release you end up with internet traffic problems. That is from my experiance | 06:15 |

| NW2190 | cky: oh ya that worked, sort of. It looks like it found the file, but it still doesn't compile and since Its an example on the gtkmm website I figure it should... | 06:16 |

| maco | laeg: oh | 06:17 |

| MrGnu | Hey Maco, thanks, It was in the settings | 06:20 |
| maco | quasar8888: nerds use their command line counterparts, and people helping here do as well because the command line is always the same, whereas kde has adept instead of synaptic | 06:20 |
| MrGnu | Just wanted to let you know, great job, thank you for helping me again! | 06:20 |

| cky | NW2190: Okay, your program compiled fine. It just didn't link fine. | 06:20 |
| maco | quasar8888: to use add/remove or synaptic or adept, just search for what you want, mark the checkbox, and hit apply | 06:21 |
| Vlet | I've never understood why online tutorials that are giving instructions on how to do fairly simple things, or in chatrooms like this where people are asking notice questions, why people instruct them to use vi | 06:21 |
| cky | NW2190: What is the command line you're using to build it? | 06:21 |
| lartza_ | mouseclone: Adn a dozen of other progs, when i updated o gutsy i did a terminal upgrade cause the graphical failed ot fetch something, but now it's really differen | 06:21 |
| nickrud | Vlet cuz it's on every system. Not all have pico or nano | 06:21 |
| MrGnu | maco: The reboot did not work but when I chose the actual alsmixer instead of autodetect that repaired the problem. | 06:21 |
| maco | Vlet: usually we recommend nano...except for like...me...because i dont have nano's stuff memorized and i can tell vi commands easily | 06:21 |
| cky | Vlet: Because vi is the lowest common denominator, except ed. :-P | 06:21 |
| patifa | yeah VLet, vi is not a program for a novice. | 06:21 |
| maco | MrGnu: ok | 06:21 |

| Radtoo^laptop | Or tell them about :w and :q. :D | 06:22 |

| djdeep | for some ati cards you can install the "radeon" driver | 06:27 |
| cky | m1dn1ght: It might not be supported. The info I have is at http://www.winischhofer.eu/linuxsispart1.shtml#12 | 06:27 |

| LSG | djdeep: For Linux? | 06:27 |
| B166erx | exactly | 06:27 |
| nickrud | m1dn1ght m1dn1ght there's a driver for it, I gotta remember | 06:27 |
| evilbug | if i install the new nvidia driver for my geforce 4 mx and it doesn't work,can i just reconfigure xserver after to restore everything to normal? [i'm running 7.10] | 06:27 |
| djdeep | yes | 06:27 |
| mouseclone | evilbug: it should have made a back up of your xorg.conf file. You can just rename that as well | 06:28 |
| LSG | djdeep: I don't know man, i always use the restricted drivers, they work fine | 06:28 |
| B166erx | my ubuntu is still more silent than a dead weasel. though. (but it have nice graphic to cope now :) ) | 06:28 |
| Gman99999 | nickrud now when i use sudo this is what it says, I reinstalled it btw "g is not in the sudoers file. This incident will be reported." | 06:28 |

| nickrud | Gman99999 is it the original user, or a newly added one? | 06:29 |

| LSG | djdeep: Just deactivate it whenever you're playing. | 06:38 |

| LSG | djdeep: Dunno...maybe having to render a 3d space withing a 3d space is too much? | 06:39 |
| cky | nickrud: Hehehe! | 06:39 |
| m1dn1ght | http://pastebin.com/d46f3f753 | 06:39 |
| mouseclone | B166erx: use vol_id /dev/harddrive to get the UUID | 06:39 |
| LSG | djdeep *within | 06:39 |
| maco | zl3cat: some drivers hate it | 06:39 |
| * nickrud wonders how many machines have his nick in them | 06:39 | |
| B166erx | thx | 06:39 |
| zl3cat | get an nvidia then :) | 06:39 |
| maco | zl3cat: youre lucky if you can do that. | 06:39 |
| Leeuw | Willizar: maybe I was wrong about the mic; I can' t check now, my kopete' s broken... But Kopete has plugins too, probably there' s one for mics, go to th menu in contact list, configure plugins, check there if there' s one, else follow the link to see if you can download one. There' s also another prog for msn: emesene, try that ? | 06:39 |
| zeeeee | hi, after upgrading from 7.10 to 8.04, typing in filenames doesn't take me to the file anymore in nautilus or the open file dialog... did this get disabled? can i enable it? | 06:39 |
| cky | m1dn1ght: I bet you $10 that nickrud's suggestion is change the vesa to sis. :-) | 06:39 |
| Willizar | kopete its a KDA program so lets ask kubuntu | 06:39 |
| Willizar | :D | 06:39 |
| cky | m1dn1ght: Because that would be my first suggestion too. | 06:40 |
| nickrud | m1dn1ght see cky above ;) | 06:40 |
| maco | zl3cat: well theyre most recent drivers have caused issues, and theyve stopped giving proper support to some cards, so that's not even a great answer anymore | 06:40 |
| djdeep | when you play a video for example with vlc d divx the qualitiy isnt so good like windows | 06:40 |
| m1dn1ght | when I booted, I had to press esc at grub, select "recovery", then e, then "noapic" and "acpi=off". I then had to press b, then select resume. As cky said, this process may mean I am giving you poor information | 06:40 |
| djdeep | why | 06:40 |
| LSG | zl3cat: I'm happy with my ATI =) I don't play games anyway | 06:40 |
| spideyman | how do i get my script to open terminal since the prog it envoke is a terminal prog? it works good but i cant see what its doing | 06:40 |
| mouseclone | B166erx: you will end up with UUID=something /where/you/want/it/mounted filesystem(etc3) relatime,errors=remount-ro 0 1 | 06:40 |
| zl3cat | gtg l8r | 06:40 |
| bod_ | bazhang: hey dude, are you about? | 06:41 |
| evilbug | the nvidia-glx-new doesn't work for me. | 06:41 |
| nks_ | Maybe someone can help me out there ! - I would like to know if someone knows how to enable graphics acceleration on a Mac 2.16 ghz. laptop with ubuntu 8.04 using vmware ! | 06:41 |
| m1dn1ght | OK - change vesa to sis makes sense. Do I make this change in xorg.conf? | 06:41 |
| nickrud | m1dn1ght no, that's a different hardware issue (probably) | 06:41 |
| bazhang | bod_: hi! | 06:41 |
| cky | m1dn1ght: Did you get a chance to edit your /boot/grub/menu.lst in the end, and add those options to your kopt line? | 06:41 |
| cky | m1dn1ght: Yes, in that file. | 06:41 |
| bazhang | your computer still sooty, bod_? ;] | 06:41 |
| mouseclone | B166erx: the easiest thing to do is copy the line above it and change the UUID and the / or mount point | 06:41 |
| osmosis | what package gives the 'host' command ? | 06:41 |
| cky | m1dn1ght: e.g., "kopt=root=... ro noapic" | 06:41 |
| m1dn1ght | Cky - I was trying to figure out the editor command. I know now it's gedit :) | 06:41 |
| Tjh__ | hey guys i tried to use the new CD for ubuntu | 06:41 |
| maco | mouseclone: i think we need a graphical way to edit /etc/fstab | 06:41 |
| nickrud | m1dn1ght do: cd /etc/X11 && sudo cp xorg.conf xorg.conf.beforenickrudmuckedabout && sudo gedit xorg.conf , then edit vesa to sis. Save, log out and back in | 06:41 |
| m1dn1ght | so I have yet to make permenant those changes | 06:41 |
| bod_ | bazhang: hey bazhang,.,. im angry with hardy now -- can you help me with a GRUB error 22 issue plz? that was my dads compi was on while mine was BORKED!!! | 06:41 |
| djdeep | the faces are little bit crap | 06:41 |
| cky | m1dni1ght: Oh, sorry, I meant "# kopt=root=... ro noapic" (don't strip out the #). | 06:42 |
| mouseclone | B166erx: also make sure that if you use /home/username/folder that folder exist | 06:42 |
| yuri_ | i need some advice. im running 7.10 right now and do not have a pressing reason to upgrade to 8.04. what is at stake here? | 06:42 |
| bazhang | hang on bod_ let me check something | 06:42 |
| dupin | Tjh__ :and? | 06:42 |
| bod_ | yuri_: dont uprade for a few more weeks (at least) | 06:42 |
| B166erx | mouseclone , yeah i got that ;) altought, i think its late. my brain is half asleep, running on geekness alone a 1:42 am. | 06:42 |
| cky | nickrud: For graphical programs always use gksudo. :-) | 06:42 |
| bod_ | bazhang: k, cheers m8 | 06:42 |
| JohnnyWells | Are there any WORKING programs I can use to remove the DDRM on my Itunes library? | 06:42 |
| maco | m1dn1ght: except where it says "sudo gedit" make that "gksudo gedit" | 06:42 |
| Tjh__ | when i boot up it gives me the menu, anything i select ends up in "IO error: Boot disk failure" | 06:42 |
| cky | maco: Yes! | 06:42 |
| maco | er...what cky said | 06:42 |
| hydrogen | JohnnyWells: no. | 06:42 |
| ceil420 | what's the command to see where a symlink is pointing? | 06:42 |
| Tjh__ | or smthg along those line | 06:42 |
| nickrud | cky oh my god, I've said that thousands of times ;(. I even know why ;-p | 06:42 |
| * bod_ notices no one talks to him unless they no him | 06:42 | |
| spideyman | how do i get my script to open terminal since the prog it envoke is a terminal prog? it works good but i cant see what its doing | 06:42 |
| Tjh__ | *lines | 06:42 |
| bazhang | bod_: is this a dual boot or only ubuntu | 06:42 |
| yuri_ | bod_: are there still major bugs to be worked out? | 06:42 |
| bod_ | bazhang: dual | 06:43 |
| hydrogen | ceil420: readlink | 06:43 |

| maco | yuri_: sloooow repositories | 06:43 |
| mouseclone | B166erx: same time here.. but I do this in my sleep.. mostly server work though on Windows. I'm just trying to learn Linux mo'better | 06:43 |
| JohnnyWells | Hydrogen, you're kidding. You mean....Apple won | 06:43 |
| B166erx | ok | 06:43 |
| === Areli1 is now known as Arelis | ||
| bod_ | yuri_: im definately experiencing them 2 & 1/2 days debugging as we speak | 06:43 |
| cky | Okay, must go. nickrud sounds plenty capable of seeing you through this, m1dn1ght; all the best! | 06:43 |

| parkar86 | Hello, I need some help recompiling the b43 kernel module for Hardy | 06:44 |
| bod_ | yuri_: no probs -- the beta was exce;;ent the full release seems shabby | 06:44 |
| bod_ | lol | 06:44 |
| EddieDied | morning, how do I restore initrd.img-2.6.24-16-386 from a livecd? | 06:44 |
| cky | m1dn1ght: I can only hope. :-) Still, glad to be of help. | 06:44 |
| cky | Uh, too late. | 06:44 |
| mouseclone | B166erx: right now your drive is more than likely mounted @ /media/disk-1 and /media/disk-2 | 06:44 |
| dupin | Tjh__ : and disc integrity? | 06:44 |
| maco | yuri_: also there's a bug where none of us are all that used to debugging hardy yet...we're used to how the old stuff worked | 06:44 |
| ceil420 | hmm | 06:44 |
| ceil420 | how can i confirm that a file is a symlink? | 06:44 |
| Tjh__ | eh? | 06:44 |
| mouseclone | B166erx: it will not automount them once inside of fstab | 06:44 |
| maco | yuri_: us helpers need to be debugged ;) | 06:44 |
| B166erx | mousclone something kie this, yeap | 06:44 |
| bod_ | maco: worked being the operative word | 06:44 |
| B166erx | ok | 06:44 |
| sls | ok maybe i am an idiot but there is no obvious way to get movies to my ipod using gtkpod. | 06:44 |
| nickrud | hahaha, three quarters of the bugs are simply 'changes' | 06:44 |
| maco | bod_: :P | 06:44 |
| parkar86 | ls -l and see if it points to something in console | 06:44 |
| dupin | Tjh__ :that is option when you boot CD | 06:44 |
| ceil420 | $ readlink -v Ceil.txt | 06:44 |
| ceil420 | readlink: Ceil.txt: Invalid argument | 06:44 |
| Tjh__ | o i burned onto a CD-RW (is that a problem) | 06:44 |
| parkar86 | colors help | 06:44 |
| mouseclone | B166erx: well not using automount | 06:44 |
| yuri_ | maco: lol. devs need to be recompiled. gotcha | 06:45 |
| maco | bod_: well the ways in which the old things failed and the ways to fix them. | 06:45 |
| EddieDied | apparently I have initrd.img-2.6.24-16-386 deleted so I can't boot into ubuntu, how do I restore this file? | 06:45 |
| blankhead | anyone knows why the media button on the keyboard doesnt pop up the default multimedia app? | 06:45 |
| mouseclone | B166erx: they will mount when the system starts | 06:45 |
| bod_ | sls: i may be being siully but have u tried dra and drop in nautilus? | 06:45 |
| B166erx | now, its late , i have a hard time finding the /dev of my hd's | 06:45 |
| Arelis | Has anyone here got Ubuntu looking -EXACTLY- like Vista? | 06:45 |
| bod_ | maco: yeah ;|) | 06:45 |
| ceil420 | Arelis, why on earth would you want to do that? | 06:45 |
| dupin | Tjh__ : I don´t think so.Check Cd for errors | 06:45 |
| maco | Arelis: why would we want to? | 06:45 |
| bod_ | ;-) | 06:45 |
| Tjh__ | Arelis: not personally but i have seen examples of it yes | 06:45 |
| nickrud | B166erx a nice trick is blkid | 06:45 |
| nks_ | Hello, is there a way for me to enable graphics acceleration on a Macbook 2.16 ghz. using ubuntu 8.04 on vmware ? | 06:45 |
| blankhead | it use to work in gutsy all the time... i press the media button on my keyboard and out pops up banshee (my default multimedia app) | 06:45 |
| Tjh__ | uuuh how to do that in a goood way? | 06:45 |
| alien | maco: lol .. still i dont think its workign right | 06:45 |
| maco | nks_: i dont think you can do 3D in a vm | 06:46 |
| blankhead | is there a place where i could submit a bug for this? | 06:46 |
| nickrud | nks_ inside vmware? there's experimental stuff for that, but no simple way | 06:46 |
| B166erx | nickrud ? | 06:46 |
| maco | alien: whats it doing? | 06:46 |
| mouseclone | B166erx: here is my fstab with the /home directory mounted on a different drive http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/64642/ | 06:46 |
| Arelis | ceil420: well, if you don't want to buy vista, and don't want to work in vista, and don't have a vista-capable pc :P | 06:46 |
| bazhang | http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=224351 bod_ you seen this? | 06:46 |
| parkar86 | so... if i need to recompile a driver... do i have to recompile the kernel... or can i just get away with recompiling the driver and loading it | 06:46 |
| dupin | Tjh__ :you will see that option when you boot CD | 06:46 |
| nks_ | wow -LOL- | 06:46 |
| nickrud | B166erx to find out your hd /dev paths | 06:46 |
| sls | bod_ yse that does work as any USB drive would... but they are not visible in the ipod. it says "no movies" when infect there are ipod movies there. | 06:46 |
| EddieDied | please need help, I have school in 1/2 hour and I have homework to print out, how do I restore initrd.img-2.6.24-16-386 in ubuntu? | 06:46 |
| ceil420 | Arelis, there are many, MANY themes that look better than Aero... | 06:46 |
| maco | alien: you should be able to right click it and select compiz or metacity from "select window manager" | 06:46 |
| Gman99999 | nickrud when i tried to add my account as an admin it said it was already in the admin group and then i logged in again and just for fun i checked and once again it says g is not in the sudoes file | 06:46 |
| bod_ | bazhang: oh, it may be because i have a seperate / and/home now? | 06:46 |
| B166erx | nickrud, yeap, but it does nothing here | 06:46 |
| Tjh__ | o yes like i said ALL THE OPTIONS TURN UP THE ERROR | 06:46 |
| maco | alien: should also be able to open the settings manager from it | 06:46 |
| Arelis | ceil420: would you give me an example, please? | 06:46 |
| bazhang | nks_: nay, parallels may have some basic gfx though (paid for not free) | 06:46 |
| Tjh__ | and i mean ALL | 06:46 |
| ceil420 | Arelis, if you go for "exactly like Vista", you're like, a wannabe Vista-user. and that's worse than an actual Vista-user. | 06:46 |
| ceil420 | Arelis, www.gnome-look.org | 06:47 |
| maco | alien: i didnt write it by the way...just pulled a snapshot from svn and compiled it | 06:47 |
| parkar86 | lol | 06:47 |
| bod_ | bazhang: no but il try it now if you thinkit will help | 06:47 |
| Tjh__ | well except it gets into the wubi fine | 06:47 |
| bazhang | bod_: should do | 06:47 |
| maco | alien: so i dont know how it works, just how to use it | 06:47 |
| EddieDied | even a hint? | 06:47 |
| dupin | Tjh__ : can you burn it on lower speed | 06:47 |
| bod_ | bazhang: kk, back in a bit | 06:47 |
| parkar86 | any help of recompiling drivers | 06:47 |
| parkar86 | ? | 06:47 |
| nickrud | B166erx one of the 'bugs', use sudo blkid (it changed) | 06:47 |
| EddieDied | anyone? | 06:47 |
| mouseclone | B166erx: df in console you should be able to see the /dev/sda1 | 06:47 |
| zeeeee | hi, after upgrading from 7.10 to 8.04, typing in filenames doesn't take me to the file anymore in nautilus or the open file dialog... did this get disabled? can i enable it? | 06:47 |
| Jarryd | hey | 06:47 |
| Arelis | ceil420: well most of those themes.. i don't like 'em | 06:47 |
| LSG | ceil420 Maybe Arelis just likes how Vista looks like? | 06:47 |
| nks_ | so there a link for me to test the experimental ? | 06:47 |
| Arelis | ceil420: i mean, the most on the frontpage (highest rating) | 06:47 |
| Tjh__ | dupin: i burnt it at 10 do i need lower? | 06:47 |
| sls | is there a program that actually will sync movies to my ipod in linux? | 06:48 |
| ceil420 | Arelis, so use search terms to find something you do like | 06:48 |
| Jarryd | burn it at as lower speed as possible | 06:48 |
| EddieDied | is anyone here helping users with ubuntu? | 06:48 |
| brent113 | Arelis, look at the community emerald theme, it's what I use | 06:48 |
| Jarryd | um | 06:48 |
| B166erx | nicee | 06:48 |
| B166erx | thx | 06:48 |
| amirman84 | hi, is kpowersave a good app? is it safe to install? as a KDE app will it mess with GNOME? | 06:48 |
| maco | Arelis: lets start with "what do you like"? | 06:48 |
| maco | brent113: emerald is not supported | 06:48 |
| dupin | Tjh__ If you can yes | 06:48 |
| Jarryd | I am a nub | 06:48 |
| bazhang | sls: you can try gtkpod | 06:48 |
| m1dn1ght | Nickrud: when I logged back in I got a window informing me I was in low graphics mode and giving me the option to configure my display. I chose sis from the list, but when I run test the screen flickered, a green bar apeared momentarily and then it said configuration had failed | 06:48 |
| ceil420 | LSG, s/he didn't say "similar to Vista", it apparently has to look "EXACTLY like Vista". that's not being a fan of the theme, that's being a poser for the OS. | 06:48 |
| maco | brent113: the compiz team doesnt even support it. | 06:48 |
| alien | maco: lol | 06:48 |
| Jarryd | I burnt a copy using my laptop burner. Fail. | 06:48 |
| maco | Arelis: dont use emerald. its crashy | 06:48 |
| brent113 | maco: then why am I using it? | 06:48 |
| bazhang | EddieDied: not on your time deadline no | 06:48 |
| sls | bazhang, I have but it is so not obvious... Pointers? | 06:48 |
| maco | brent113: because you put up with it? | 06:48 |
| EddieDied | all I want is how to restore initrd.img-2.6.24-16-386 in ubuntu. | 06:49 |
| Arelis | maco: I like a theme that belongs to the genre Fantasy. | 06:49 |
| brent113 | I've never had it crash ever | 06:49 |
| Arelis | maco: I do not like all the industrial and metal and plastic stuff | 06:49 |
| Tjh__ | hmm will try that then | 06:49 |
| maco | brent113: i have it installed too, but it crashes all the tim so i stopped using it. on nvidia it slows everything down. compiz team said they dont support it and *might* replace it, but the code base will be totally scrapped | 06:49 |
| Tjh__ | o god that will take long | 06:49 |
| nks_ | oooppppssss- I mean--is there a link available for me to test the experimental to get the graphics acceleration working, for the vmware + mac + ubuntu 8.04? | 06:49 |
| LSG | ceil420: Haha...well maybe you're right. | 06:49 |
| nickrud | Gman99999 put a copy of your /etc/sudoers file on http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org . You are probably going to have to boot back into recovery mode and enable the root account for a while, to aid troubleshooting. do passwd <password> in recovery mode, then type exit to get back to the gui. Then you can read /etc/sudoers and pastebin it. | 06:49 |
| Starnestommy | EddieDied: I think it's part of linux-image-$(uname -r) | 06:49 |
| bazhang | sls the ubuntu wiki has a link for the iPhone and iPod-->you on gutsy or hardy | 06:49 |
| brent113 | maco: I'm sorry for the experience you've had, but I've had nothing but pleasant experiences with it. | 06:49 |
| ceil420 | :p | 06:49 |
| LSG | Arelis: Glassy then! | 06:49 |
| ceil420 | now then | 06:49 |
| AdemoS | So, 7.10 can see and connect to all wifi networks in my house. But 8.04 cannot SEE any wifi networks...? Ubuntu Studio 8.04 seems to be missing gnome-network-manager entirely....What is going on with Hardy? I was told it was the STABLE SOLID release, but I had better luck with Gutsy, which was supposedly more "expiremental...." | 06:49 |
| achandrashekar | allright after solving a not being able to sudo because of edited host file, and vmware workstation blowing up, I have 8.04 "functioning". However, when I have my brick lugged into my laptop, i get a strange acpi error..any ideas on what this ? | 06:50 |
| ceil420 | how can i tell if a file is a link? | 06:50 |
| mouseclone | I like the "main menu" it saves some space on the bar, and is like the start or K menu | 06:50 |
| EddieDied | Starnestommy: and how do I install that? | 06:50 |
| media64 | hey, i just installed Ubuntu 8.04, and my screen res is fucked up | 06:50 |
| maco | brent113: on which ubuntu and with which drivers? | 06:50 |
| sls | bazhang, Im on hardy. | 06:50 |
| amirman84 | will kpowersave mess with GNOME? | 06:50 |
| EddieDied | I have just that file missing in /boot/ | 06:50 |
| dupin | Tjh__ :or you can download same iso with torrent and point download to the folder with existin iso.That way torent will check your iso for errors and replace bad file with good ones | 06:50 |
| nickrud | Gman99999 when you're done, do sudo passwd -l root , to disable the root login again. | 06:50 |
| Jarryd | um, when i attempt to load it up, it jams on "Loading Linux Kernel 100%" | 06:50 |
| Starnestommy | EddieDied: with apt-get install | 06:50 |
| Arelis | LSG: or wooden.. | 06:50 |
| brent113 | maco: hardy, nvidia-glx-new | 06:50 |
| nickrud | m1dn1ght not sure then. I've never used the sis chip. Let me do a little googling | 06:50 |
| Tjh__ | hmm interesting | 06:50 |
| EddieDied | Starnestommy: im on a livecd, how will that work? | 06:50 |
| Tjh__ | yes... | 06:50 |
| LSG | Arelis: Or paper...y.. | 06:50 |
| MEtaLpREs_ | ugg... well so far atleast for me Hard y is total crap and it looks like im going back to gutsy | 06:50 |
| EddieDied | I cant boot in ubuntu | 06:50 |
| m1dn1ght | thanks nickrud! I really appreciate the help. | 06:50 |
| media64 | i already installed the drivers, it actually reduced my res from 800x600 to 640x480 | 06:50 |
| bazhang | sls search term should be ubuntu hardy iPhone and that leads directly to the wiki link for both iPhones and iPods | 06:51 |
| kunzy | Can anyone help me with a GRUB Error 17 | 06:51 |
| media64 | and i have absolutely no Linux experience | 06:51 |
| Tjh__ | Eddie: cant you pull it off the CD? | 06:51 |
| cfreeze | on a postmordem of a ubuntu install (aka DOA hardy install), what would be the best way of pulling what packages were installed? I know on a live system I can do dpkg --get-selections, but on a dead one.. | 06:51 |
| Jarryd | Hey EddieDied -- Burn it at a low speed on a real burner. Not laptop | 06:51 |
| dupin | MEtaLpREs_ :every new release need polish | 06:51 |
| EddieDied | Tjh__: uhh and just copy it? | 06:51 |
| sls | bazhang, ok | 06:51 |
| yuri_ | how do i get the description of a package i have yet to install through the commandline? something like apt-cache desc package? | 06:51 |
| Tjh__ | Eddie: mkinitcpio | 06:51 |
| B166erx | mouseclone , hm, the UUID, i add it manually, but hm, is it the same that sudo blkid gives me ? | 06:51 |
| maco | brent113: it crashes on my intel on hardy....worked fine-ish on gutsy & feisty (only a little crashy...not any more than beryl was). on my friend's nvidia it just turned the whole system slow. #compiz-fusion said to get rid of emerald because they wont be fixing any bugs. quinn (the one that made beryl) said it's spaghetti code and should go | 06:51 |
| Tjh__ | Eddie: man mkinitcpio | 06:51 |
| === deshawn is now known as JewRat | ||
| Starnestommy | EddieDied: oh. In that case, you will need to mount the filesystem to a temporary directory, chroot into it, then run update-initramfs | 06:51 |
| achandrashekar | btw....for those that are upgrading...vmware will need re-configuring...thats workstation that is.. | 06:51 |
| EddieDied | Jarryd: I had ubuntu running, I just have initrd.img-2.6.24-16-386 deleted from my HD | 06:51 |
| ceil420 | yuri_, apt-cache show packagename | 06:51 |
| bazhang | http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=224351 try this kunzy | 06:51 |
| EddieDied | Starnestommy: ok thanks will try that | 06:51 |
| Tjh__ | Eddie: or that | 06:51 |
| Jarryd | oh | 06:51 |
| maco | brent113: if it works for you, great, but its not being supported upstream at all | 06:51 |
| LSG | Arelis: You made me want to get a nice theme now | 06:51 |
| nickrud | m1dn1ght that was a 771/671 , right? | 06:51 |
| amirman84 | does anyone here use KPowersave? | 06:52 |

| Myrtti | I feel like such a newcomer again. How does one change the display driver in Hardy? | 06:52 |
| kunzy | bazhang k, will give it a read | 06:52 |
| AdemoS | So, 7.10 can see and connect to all wifi networks in my house. But 8.04 cannot SEE any wifi networks...? Ubuntu Studio 8.04 seems to be missing gnome-network-manager entirely....What is going on with Hardy? I was told it was the STABLE SOLID release, but I had better luck with Gutsy, which was supposedly more "expiremental...." | 06:52 |
| mouseclone | B166erx: the sudo blkid I didn't know about.. but the sudo blkid will list all mount points with respected UUID | 06:52 |
| Jarryd | fuck. I made progress but Ubuntu is stuck at Loading linux kernal 100% | 06:52 |
| alien | maco: it works fine but still cant turn it into a ice cube lol | 06:52 |
| maco | Arelis: by "fantasy" do you just mean for the wallpaper? | 06:52 |
| bazhang | !language | Jarryd | 06:52 |
| ubotu | Jarryd: Please watch your language and topic to help keep this channel family friendly. | 06:52 |
| Arelis | ceil420: I am not a fan of the OS. I don't even like it. It does all kinds of weird things on my dad's laptop, and then he asks me. But i kind of like the look | 06:52 |
| maco | alien: oh in the settings manager you need to enable cube | 06:52 |
| brent113 | maco: yes I understand that. Unfortunately several themes I like are only made for emerald. If there is a way of converting it to a different one I'd do that, but I have not yet found a way | 06:52 |
| alien | maco: cube i mean | 06:52 |
| Arelis | maco: GTK theme, usplash, everything | 06:52 |
| alien | maco: i dide that and reloaded | 06:52 |
| mouseclone | B166erz: vol_id /dev/sda1 will only like sda1 not all volumes | 06:52 |
| alien | maco: still nothing | 06:52 |
| nickrud | Myrtti you can still put it in xorg.conf I think. | 06:52 |
| maco | alien: did you enable cube rotate? | 06:53 |
| media64 | can anyone help my res problem? i tried installing the restricted driver but it only made my problem worse | 06:53 |
| lopin | I'm having a problem with the upgrade tool locking up? | 06:53 |
| Myrtti | ok, let's try that | 06:53 |
| ceil420 | Arelis, right down to the Vista "Start" button? | 06:53 |
| Gman99999 | nickrud ok so with this command passwd <password> in the command line in recovery mode will set everything in super user mode even if i reboot back into this account? | 06:53 |
| maco | Arelis: how do you do a fantasy gtk theme? | 06:53 |
| Arelis | ceil420: no, that thing's clusmy and unhandy to me | 06:53 |
| alien | maco: yes | 06:53 |
| EddieDied | Starnestommy: /usr/share/initramfs-tools/hooks/udev: 61: cannot create /dev/null: Permission denied is this normal? | 06:53 |
| Arelis | maco: hmm.. | 06:53 |
| maco | Arelis: gtk is just the colors of everything | 06:53 |
| Crshman | hey all, when i click "1" on my number pad on the keyboard linux logs me out...where can i change that? | 06:53 |
| EddieDied | I got a tonne of those | 06:53 |
| ekontsevoy | Hm... weird. I am doing sudo apt-get distupgrade on Gutsy (Slicehost) and nothing happens. Isn't it supposed to upgrade to Hardy? | 06:53 |
| bazhang | AdemoS: ubuntustudio is the problem; nothing to do with hardy and whatnot-->it is completely OSS so will not have certain drivers etc | 06:53 |
| ceil420 | Arelis, then you're not looking for "exactly like Vista", and shouldn't have worded your request like that :p | 06:53 |
| Starnestommy | EddieDied: did you chroot into the temporary directory? | 06:53 |
| Arelis | maco: http://www.gnome-look.org/content/show.php/Everwood?content=61330 <-- This goes somewhat close | 06:53 |
| kunzy | bazhang: I am going offline to test. Asume no news is good news. Thanks!!!! | 06:53 |
| Jarryd | kernal panic lol | 06:53 |
| s_ | nor wired nor wireless internet connection in 8.04..dissapointment | 06:53 |
| nickrud | Gman99999 no, that means you can do su - root in the terminal, and have access to the stuff you do in the recovery console | 06:53 |
| Gman99999 | ok | 06:54 |
| EddieDied | Starnestommy: yes sudo chroot /media/disk su | 06:54 |
| amirman84 | kpowersave anybody? or maybe somebody has suggestions for fixing my hibernation on my dell e1505 using hardy? | 06:54 |
| brent113 | ekontsevoy, If you open update-manager and click the Check button, does it show you there is an upgrade available? | 06:54 |
| alien | maco: any idea? | 06:54 |
| alien | maco: cube and rotate cube i enabled reloaded | 06:54 |
| ekontsevoy | brent113: I am on a comnand-line system | 06:54 |
| achandrashekar | media: im not sure if there is a backup file if you upgraded or not.. but may be checking /etc/X11 and the xorg.conf | 06:54 |
| alien | maco: everything still seems to be same | 06:54 |
| maco | Arelis: the wallpaper's the only thing fantasy about that... | 06:54 |
| s_ | i returned to 7.10 | 06:54 |
| Cynic_AU | hey guys, my 8.04 boots into BusyBox. Any tips for troubleshooting from here..? | 06:54 |
| maco | alien: hold down ctrl alt and click and drag your mouse...anything happen? | 06:54 |
| Jarryd | I am running a Live CD. How long is a normal bootup time? core2 duo 1.8, 4gb ram | 06:54 |
| juan | hi I have a problem after updating to 8.04 | 06:54 |
| ceil420 | Cynic_AU, is that a window manager? | 06:54 |
| EddieDied | and I got this too /usr/sbin/mkinitramfs: 186: cannot create /dev/null: Permission denied | 06:54 |
| media64 | okay achandrashekar: i have NO idea about anything in linux, i just installed it 10 minutes ago | 06:54 |
| alien | maco: lol yeah hehe | 06:54 |
| bazhang | AdemoS: the best way to go is to enable ubuntustudio repos then add stuff to ubuntu (apps, themes etc) | 06:55 |
| Crshman | any idea's as to what this error means?? (this is the error i get in /var/log/messages when i click "1") Xgl[13492]: segfault at 000001a6 eip 0818db66 esp bfdc81a0 error 4 | 06:55 |
| Cynic_AU | BusyBox is a minimal shell with a few commands. | 06:55 |
| Gman99999 | nickrud so i do passwd <password> to get super user access in this account im logged into right now? | 06:55 |
| Cynic_AU | obviously something fails during startup | 06:55 |
| Tjh__ | Eddie: run as root.. | 06:55 |
| amirman84 | :( | 06:55 |
| Starnestommy | EddieDied: cd /dev then run ./MAKEDEV /dev/null | 06:55 |
| EddieDied | BUT the file is there | 06:55 |
| Cynic_AU | gets halfway through startup splash | 06:55 |
| ceil420 | Cynic_AU, ah. i don't know then. i was gonna suggest changing session at the login window <_< | 06:55 |
| EddieDied | oh ok | 06:55 |
| Cynic_AU | doesnt get to login window :) thanks anyway | 06:55 |
| brent113 | ekontsevoy, the command to upgrade is sudo update-manager -d. If that doesn't work.. I don't know | 06:55 |
| ceil420 | i tried :x | 06:55 |
| crdlb | Crshman: get rid of Xgl | 06:55 |
| alien | maco: nice but it only shows two sides | 06:55 |
| B166erx | mouseclone http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/64643/ (the 2 last lines) should that do the trick or am i missing something ? | 06:55 |
| nickrud | Gman99999 after you have enabled the root account in recovery mode, you do: su - root (switch user to root) , then type in the password. You are then in sudo mode, until you type exit | 06:55 |
| alien | maco: if i have 4 windows .. | 06:56 |
| EddieDied | ./MAKEDEV: don't know how to make device "/dev/null" | 06:56 |
| Jarryd | How long is a standard boot time? | 06:56 |
| Sp0tteh | can anyone help me out with mdadm????? | 06:56 |
| Cynic_AU | Jarryd - depends on hardware. For me - quicker than windows. | 06:56 |
| ceil420 | Jarryd, there isn't a "standard" boot time | 06:56 |
| juan | After I updated from 7.10 to 8.04 and restart, I can't get the login window, my mouse is busy is there a solution?? | 06:56 |
| achandrashekar | media64: that xorg.conf controls ALOT when dealing with X11 issues...and with the card you have, a google search, may just yield how to edit it properly. I highly suggest a backup of that file though, if you wish to "play with it".In the worse case scenario, you can revert it. do that with a cp xorg.conf to xorg.conf.old. | 06:56 |
| B166erx | mouseclone (just saw the relatime error, fixed) | 06:56 |
| maxagaz | how to copy all and only the hidden files and directories of my home/ directory ? | 06:56 |
| Crshman | crdlb: will compiz still work w/o XGL? | 06:56 |
| Starnestommy | EddieDied: what about ./MAKEDEV std? | 06:56 |
| nickrud | Gman99999 the reason you're doing this is you can't read /etc/sudoers except with root privs, either from sudo or from logging in as root | 06:56 |
| crdlb | Crshman: you might need to make a few changes, but yes it should | 06:57 |
| media64 | where do i find that file? | 06:57 |
| maxagaz | to another location | 06:57 |
| maco | alien: in the setting thing, change your horizontal virtual size to 4...in general section | 06:57 |
| mouseclone | B166erx: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/64644/ | 06:57 |
| Crshman | crdlb: cool thanks | 06:57 |
| bazhang | media64: this is gutsy or hardy | 06:57 |
| EddieDied | Starnestommy: ./MAKEDEV: warning: can't read /proc/devices | 06:57 |
| achandrashekar | mxagaz: thats done with a cp -r for a recursive copy and * as a wildcard | 06:57 |
| Jarryd | Then does that mean that if i am Jammed on "Loading Linux Kernal 100%" for 5 minutes on a live cd, it is jammed? | 06:57 |
| mouseclone | B166erx: corrected | 06:57 |
| Dusk_ | hi there | 06:57 |
| Gman99999 | nickrud sorry im just a little confused here how do i enable root access in recovery mode again? | 06:57 |
| crdlb | Crshman: join #compiz-fusion if compiz doesn't work without Xgl installed | 06:57 |

| === paijo is now known as punk | ||
| bazhang | AdemoS: scroll up to see | 06:58 |
| nickrud | Gman99999 when you see the command prompt, just type passwd <rootpassword> | 06:58 |
| shulman | I just upgraded to Hardy and am attempting to use Ubuntu with the nvidia driver-- I'm able to use both screens, but gnome seems to be treating both screens as seperate entities -- I can move the mouse between them but I can't move windows between them. Any idea how I can fix this? | 06:58 |
| nickrud | Gman99999 not needed, you're already root in recovery :) | 06:58 |
| m1dn1ght | messages don't stay on the screen long when you're in 800x600! :D | 06:58 |
| Radtoo^laptop | AdemoS: Take it easy... read the answers... breathe deeply... and be a bit tolerant, this is complex stuff :) | 06:58 |
| AdemoS | bazhang, I tried both Ubuntu Studio and Ubuntu desktop, same exact issue | 06:58 |
| Eleaf | Is it possible to give pulseaudio a higher priority? It skips so much when doing processor-intensive things or just doing lots of scrolling (while alsa won't skip alone)...? | 06:58 |
| media64 | i have a 7900 nVidia graphics card, i dont know too much about it other than it has 1 Gb of vram | 06:58 |
| EddieDied | Starnestommy: ok ./MAKEDEV std came to a new line | 06:58 |
| nickrud | m1dn1ght the chip numbers, 761/771 ? was that right? | 06:58 |
| achandrashekar | anyone experiencing strange acpi issues...when plugging in power to a laptop on boot? my systems ocassionally hangs and complains of it. | 06:58 |
| EddieDied | Starnestommy: when I did the /dev/null one, I still get ./MAKEDEV: don't know how to make device "/dev/null" | 06:59 |
| Starnestommy | EddieDied: does /dev/null exist? | 06:59 |
| Dusk_ | i had a log in problem in ubuntu and it was an error about network-manager so i apt-get removed network-manager and network-manager-gnome. now i can log in but there is no internet connection. how can i reinstall netwok manager aain?? | 06:59 |
| Jarryd | Why is bootup screen JAMMED at 100%?!?!? | 06:59 |
| m1dn1ght | If I gave you that info nick, I would need to have been guided to it. Not sure how to tell sorry! | 06:59 |
| AdemoS | bazhang, while my wireless modem is detected, all wifi networks have disapeared. if I pop in a 7.10 live cd, all my wifi network are back....? | 06:59 |

| Gman99999 | nickrud ok so i reboot go into recovery mode and then type in that passwd <rootpassword> and then i reboot and then come back in this account? | 06:59 |
| nickrud | Gman99999 except that <rootpassword> is what you intend to be the password | 07:00 |
| bazhang | AdemoS: upgrade to normal hardy should be just to non-ubuntustudio what is the chipset on that card btw | 07:00 |
| Jarryd | Do I have another Dodgey disk? | 07:00 |

| EddieDied | and I am root | 07:00 |
| AdemoS | bazhang, sorry for miscommunication, 'normal hardy' suffers from the same issue that studio does, in my case | 07:00 |
| bazhang | Jarryd: try starting up with acpi=off and remove quiet and splash from the boot parameters as well | 07:00 |
| B166erx | mouseclone , hm, last check... i'm suddenly not sur that i took the good HD ... but, your Vol_id command do not work : / /dev/sdc1: error opening volume | 07:01 |
| nickrud | Gman99999 ok, just want to be sure. I've taken shortcuts sometimes in telling things, and send me and the other guy down hour long blind ends ;) | 07:01 |
| bazhang | AdemoS: the chipset please | 07:01 |
| achandrashekar | Jarryd: and attempting to ctrl-alt-f1 or f2 or f3 etc cant drop you to shell?? then check logs? | 07:01 |
| Jarryd | Thankyou Bazhang, I shall try that | 07:01 |
| AdemoS | bazhang, chipset? Oh 64 bit | 07:01 |
| Gman99999 | nickrud lol ok | 07:01 |
| bazhang | AdemoS: wifi chipset not arch of ubuntu | 07:01 |
| maco | alien: is there a general section in the compiz settings thing? | 07:01 |
| nickrud | Gman99999 no. You will be in a situation where you can see /etc/sudoers and put it on http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org so I can see it | 07:01 |
| mouseclone | B166erx: hmm is /dev/sdc1 mounted? | 07:01 |

| Jarryd | Bazhang: ACPI off was an option under "F6 Furthur Options" and i erased quiet and splash from the line of text thingy. Command line is it? | 07:06 |
| Fa | easier to do clean install | 07:06 |

| maco | cky: i have an older version installed..maybe if i use sun java itll work..when i used the open one with the version i already installed, i couldnt type in the password field | 07:08 |
| maco | cky: yes http://www.woopra.com/download/ | 07:08 |

| Eleaf | can I adjust the pulseaudio options on boot? | 07:08 |
| Eleaf | like I want to change the realtime scheduling option | 07:08 |

| bod_ | Radtoo^laptop: so does this look ok? -- http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/64645/ | 07:09 |

| MrJones | Gateway MX6455 | 07:11 |
| Fa | yes the ubuntu forums | 07:11 |
| Radtoo^laptop | bod_: I'd put /boot into a primary partition for ease but should be okay | 07:11 |
| nickrud | Gman99999 oh, crap. You didn't change the root passwd, cuz I was brain dead. passwd root is the command you should have used, so you change the root passwd. | 07:11 |
| ariqs | does anyone know why realeaes.ubuntu.com is suddenly not responding? | 07:11 |
| bazhang | MrJones: what kindof laptop? thinkpad? you may need to use software to control that | 07:11 |
| Gman99999 | nickrud says autentication failure | 07:11 |
| MrJones | They all work though | 07:11 |
| patifa | ariqs: Massive overload | 07:11 |
| Radtoo^laptop | bod_: (in fact if you just have 3 partitions make them all primary?) | 07:11 |
| MrJones | The volume key usually works before i set it to USB Audo | 07:11 |
| nickrud | Gman99999 sorry | 07:11 |
| achandrashekar | I AM pleased though with the PPC installer for 8.04... it works...UNLIKE 7.10 for G4s. | 07:11 |
| EddieDied | Starnestommy: so I need to find a way to fix these errors | 07:11 |
| MrJones | Audio* | 07:11 |
| stdin | ariqs: because it's still under heavy load, try another mirror | 07:11 |
| EddieDied | ill google again and see | 07:11 |
| bod_ | Radtoo^laptop: what causes a grub error 22? | 07:11 |
| EddieDied | why Im getting this /dev/null errors | 07:11 |
| Gman99999 | nickrud lol its ok so what;s the command i put in? passwd root? | 07:11 |
| patifa | MrJones: Do the graphical audio controls work with USB audio? | 07:11 |
| isaganix | This is frustrating, makes me wanna go back to Windows :| | 07:11 |
| MrJones | Yes | 07:11 |
| InfernoX222 | is it possible to use the default ubuntu drivers for graphics after installing new drivers that messed with res | 07:11 |
| ariqs | stdin: I'm on dialup and have been getting the iso ever since it was released with getright. I don't think I can change now without restarting and investing another 2 days into the download | 07:11 |
| bod_ | Gman99999: do you no what your doing? | 07:11 |
| Fa | hey XceII | 07:11 |
| MrJones | wait | 07:12 |
| bazhang | !windows | isaganix | 07:12 |

| lopin | I still can't upgrade! I don't want to have to completely install again! | 07:12 |
| stdin | ariqs: that's why we recommend torrents | 07:12 |
| bod_ | isaganix: searchsynaptic for gstreamer then install all plugins and codecs | 07:12 |
| nickrud | m1dn1ght the only thing I could find was http://gabrielstein.org/?p=201 , but your mileage may vary. I did see a gentoo post that seemed to do the same thing. | 07:12 |
| Fa | choose a different server lopin | 07:12 |
| Gman99999 | bod_ trying to log in as root my sudoer file was deleted accidently | 07:12 |
| ariqs | stdin: torrents on dialup really stink :p | 07:12 |
| stdin | ariqs: releases.u.c has been timing out on-and-off now for a while | 07:12 |
| lopin | I've used several, and it's not a connection issue... | 07:12 |
| lopin | The tool is locking up... | 07:12 |
| nickrud | m1dn1ght the gentoo post didn't have the link to the driver, though so I'm not sure if he used the same one | 07:12 |
| bod_ | Gman99999: oh,.damn | 07:12 |
| lopin | It gets to the apt-get part, and stops doing shit... | 07:12 |
| XceII | Ok Folks< Now is the Time, Donate to Ubuntu and get ur stuff right, K? Its the right thing 2 Do!. K? | 07:12 |

| Gman99999 | nickrud ok I'll be back after trying "passwd root" | 07:13 |
| XceII | Id rather support Ubuntu than that gay bastard gates,, Linux works | 07:14 |
| XceII | . | 07:14 |
| ariqs | Fa: I requested a free cd like 3 weeks ago. I think downloading it over dialup is even faster than that, i the server would let me back on :p | 07:14 |
| bod_ | Radtoo^laptop: i think rub cant find my /home or something stupid | 07:14 |
| bod_ | rub=ggrub | 07:14 |
| maco | cky: ugh. the version installed wants to install updates and says its not root...im running it from a root terminal. i seriously hate this. | 07:14 |
| bazhang | language xcell | 07:14 |

| bod_ | !langauge > XceII | 07:14 |
| nickrud | ariqs heh. I ordered ubuntu, and forgot I did. It showed up a couple months later | 07:14 |
| lopin | Is there a way to upgrade without the update tool? | 07:14 |
| stdin | ariqs: normally you can resume a download, as long as the server supports resume (most do) and you download client does | 07:14 |
| bazhang | bod_: your spellcheck is broken ;] | 07:14 |
| maco | lopin: apt | 07:14 |

| elkbuntu | XceII, please be more polite | 07:15 |

| Fa | xfce | 07:15 |
| Fa | i'm waiting for kde to be more stable | 07:16 |
| Radtoo^laptop | bod_: /home is nice to have but irrelevant in this case because all stuff associated with boot is not there :) | 07:16 |
| EddieDied | Starnestommy: I found this and I will try it, sudo nano /etc/rc.local chmod 0666 /dev/null <---- insert this | 07:16 |
| EddieDied | maybe that will fix it | 07:16 |
| androver | anyone use a tiling wm? | 07:16 |
| bazhang | good luck EddieDied | 07:16 |
| ceil420 | how can i tell if a file is a link? | 07:16 |

| kunzy | Ok, i got a weird one. My current setup was a dual boot XP ubuntu. Master drive had GRUB+XP, slave had ubuntu. Then i disconnected all drives, added a PCI IDE/SATA card and installed Vista on yet another HDD. Then i boot up normal only to have GRUB dish me a Error 17. I unplug the card and all is fine and dandy. Anybody got an explanation for this? | 07:18 |
| AdemoS | bazhang, but what can be done with that information? | 07:18 |
| bazhang | AdemoS: need the actual make and model to help you | 07:18 |
| ceil420 | i was wondering why those files were executable when i ls -l'd the folder, but i didn't know it was related :x | 07:18 |
| Radtoo^laptop | bod_: not as long as all the space is occupied by the extended one I figure? | 07:18 |
| Aggraxis | InfernoX222: you try envy? | 07:18 |

| isaganix | good night all | 07:18 |
| EddieDied | I added the nano /etc/rc.local chmod 0666 /dev/null how do I restart it? or do I not need to, and do the update-init thing now? | 07:18 |
| Radtoo^laptop | bod_: you'd have to delete all partitions first | 07:18 |
| ceil420 | Arelis, that looks like a blue version of ubuntu's Human theme :o | 07:18 |
| InfernoX222 | aggraxis: yes bit i get some errors and im not sure how to make it recognize other drivers | 07:18 |

| unikon | Hardy install is not going anywhere even when i hit alt-f1 & alt-f8 on the alternate cd the furthest i can get to is the cmd list whats the cmd to install using a alternative cd | 07:19 |

| kunzy | patifa: So is the PCI IDE card taking the place of the ubuntu drive or how is that happening. I only have the problem when the PCI card is plugged in. | 07:20 |
| Arelis | ceil420: oh, what DE do you use? | 07:20 |

| Starnestommy | kmanro3: yes | 07:21 |
| n-iCe | Hello I just upgraded to hardy, but sometimes when I reboot it doesn't start X, a lot of problems how can I resolve them? | 07:21 |
| kmanro3 | cool thx | 07:21 |
| ceil420 | Arelis, Xfce, with Enlightenment 16 for my WM | 07:21 |
| bazhang | AdemoS: this is gutsy or hardy | 07:21 |
| AdemoS | bazhang, hardy | 07:21 |
| Frippera | Starnestommy: ok, thx | 07:21 |
| Arelis | ceil420: is it less limited than gnome? | 07:21 |
| MrJones | I narrowed down my problem, Under Sound Prefs were it says Default Mixer Tracks, none of them affect the sound level for USB Audio | 07:21 |
| bod_ | !lnw > thats actually a really good read | 07:21 |
| XceII | bazhang: I totally understand, im with yuh bro, relax. | 07:21 |
| Dr_willis | ceil420, and its a ls feature - to colorize things. :) not 'bash' doing it. | 07:21 |
| kunzy | patifa: So is there any way to keep the PCI drive from taking the place of the ubuntu drive? I already tried the Super Grub Disk. | 07:21 |
| Aggraxis | InfernoX222: damn... I wish I knew more about what goes on under the hood. I hate it when stuff doesn't work :P | 07:21 |
| ceil420 | Arelis, i don't really use GUI controls much, so i honestly don't know what you'd mean by "limited" | 07:21 |
| bod_ | !lnw > bazhang thats actually a really good read | 07:21 |
| MrJones | I want my keyboard buttons to lower and raise the sound but none of the Mixer tracks are doing that for USB Audio | 07:22 |
| bazhang | bod_: ;] | 07:22 |
| ceil420 | Dr_willis, oh, i thought different shells had different ways of showing filenames like dat <_< thanks for the re-education :p | 07:22 |
| EddieDied | I hope I dont need to reinstall | 07:22 |
| bod_ | MrJones: google media keyboard shortcuts ubuntu" | 07:22 |
| ceil420 | !lnw > ceil420 | 07:22 |
| nickrud | http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/64649/ Gman99999 There's only one line different, gutsy had a much longer one iirc (another bug/change :) | 07:22 |
| MrJones | k | 07:22 |
| InfernoX222 | aggraxis: yah me too.. i see some forums that say they cant get ubuntu to work at all on an 8600m gt... but mine WAS working untill i wanted to update the drivers :( | 07:22 |
| XceII | Stifles, before he gets on Dr_willis's butt | 07:23 |
| legend2440 | envy is supported in hardy? i see its in the repos | 07:23 |
| patifa | kunzy: good question. Super GRUB disk should be able to do it, if the right tweaks are made | 07:23 |
| bazhang | AdemoS: what is your kernel version? | 07:23 |
| bazhang | legend2440: aye | 07:23 |
| legend2440 | bazhang: ok ty | 07:23 |
| nickrud | Gman99999 sorry about the root <passwd> thing again, I can't even remember the last time I had someone enable the root account. | 07:23 |
| AdemoS | bazhang, with Hardy, it's the kernal that comes default. With Studio it's the real time kernal. I could check the numbers exactly, but aren't they alwasy the same based on defaults? | 07:23 |
| XceII | kids, bazhangrocks, pay attention. | 07:24 |
| bazhang | AdemoS: 386 or generic | 07:24 |
| EddieDied | im going to try to install over this hardy installation with the livedc | 07:24 |
| patifa | kunzy: I suggest "GRUB => MBR & !LINUX! (>=2) MANUAL" | 07:24 |
| EddieDied | maybe itll fix it | 07:24 |
| Gman99999 | nickrud ok so how can i edit this file to add this stuff, is it via that visudo thing, and hey Im just thankful your helping me lol | 07:24 |
| kunzy | patifa: hmm, but then there is another thing i noticed. The SGD was able to open the menu.lst on the ubuntu partition and use it just fine. I was able to book off the OS's that way | 07:24 |
| bod_ | Radtoo^laptop: should swap be at the beginning or end? | 07:24 |
| MrJones | I dont seem to see anything on my subject bob | 07:24 |
| XceII | Dr_willis: does not rock | 07:24 |
| AdemoS | bazhang, for Hardy normal, generic. For Hardy Studio, real time | 07:24 |
| XceII | . | 07:24 |
| MrJones | bod | 07:24 |
| patifa | then pick your ubuntu partition. That should rewire the MBR back to the right thing | 07:24 |
| InfernoX222 | does anyone know how to get envy to recognize a new driver pack? | 07:24 |
| Dr_willis | XceII, huh? | 07:24 |
| XceII | j/k | 07:24 |
| EddieDied | oh I cant install hardy over hardy... | 07:25 |
| nickrud | Gman99999 since you're in root, visudo should be fine. | 07:25 |
| Dr_willis | XceII, im so lagged.. i see no coments for 3 min.. then a flood of 300 lines. :) | 07:25 |
| kunzy | patifa: ok, i will give that a try. And if all else fails, i will just get some of those stupid IDE/SATA converters and fix it up the right way. | 07:25 |
| MrJones | yeh me 2 | 07:25 |
| Fa | on dialup dr willis? | 07:25 |
| kunzy | Thanks!!!!! | 07:25 |
| Gman99999 | nickrud sry what command do i type in? | 07:25 |
| bazhang | AdemoS: you need to see if linux-ubuntu-modules-2.6.24-16-(your version here) is installed | 07:25 |
| XceII | ok willis, no worries my man | 07:25 |
| Dr_willis | Fa, i think my isp is upgrading some stuff. | 07:25 |
| kangkong | !patebin | 07:25 |
| ubotu | Sorry, I don't know anything about patebin - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi | 07:25 |
| kangkong | !pastebin | 07:25 |
| ubotu | pastebin is a service to post multiple-lined 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 channel topic) | 07:25 |
| Aggraxis | wouldn't the linux-generic package take care of that? | 07:25 |
| Fa | where from dr willis? | 07:25 |
| luderacer | awsome upgrades are cool | 07:25 |
| XceII | lol fa | 07:25 |
| Radtoo^laptop | bod_: it doesn't matter much, but I'd put it at the end | 07:25 |
| luderacer | as long as u dont gotta pay for them | 07:26 |
| nickrud | Gman99999 visudo should work, if not you can use nano (carefully) , make a backup first | 07:26 |
| XceII | nice ccall | 07:26 |
| Fa | when my isp upgrade we know about it | 07:26 |
| BaD_CrC | !envy | InfernoX222 | 07:26 |
| ubotu | InfernoX222: envy is an unsupported tool to install newer versions of binary video drivers than provided by the official repositories. Use at your own risk, and remember that the latest version is not necessarily the "best". See « /msg ubotu binarydriver » | 07:26 |
| bod_ | Radtoo^laptop: ty,. should / be ext3? /home be ext3? | 07:26 |
| XceII | Fa roX0rs | 07:26 |
| bazhang | BaD_CrC: check out info envyng-gtk | 07:26 |
| AdemoS | bazhang, yes, I watched that being transfered during the alternate install status messages | 07:26 |
| Fa | if you live in Canada you should be with teksavvy | 07:26 |
| Radtoo^laptop | bod_: yes, sure. | 07:26 |
| BaD_CrC | i don't use it. :) | 07:26 |
| ceil420 | is there a non-ext3 fs that people recommend? | 07:26 |
| MrJones | When i set my sound prefs for USB Audio my keyboard shortcuts (for increasing sound) no longer work | 07:27 |
| bod_ | Radtoo^laptop: cheers | 07:27 |
| Radtoo^laptop | bod_: they're robust general purpose filesystems, good stuff if you don't have specific needs | 07:27 |
| MrJones | Something to do with the default mixer tracks | 07:27 |
| patifa | ceil420: ext2? | 07:27 |
| Aggraxis | is there something wrong with ext3? | 07:27 |
| bazhang | AdemoS: please double check in synaptic | 07:27 |
| AdemoS | bazhang, alright | 07:27 |
| ceil420 | i'm not sure if it's old HDDs or the fs, but i'm getting inode/superblock errors on both my disks sometimes :x | 07:27 |
| Dr_willis | ceil420, most people dont need anything other then ext3. You have some different needs? | 07:27 |
| Radtoo^laptop | ceil420: All the ones that are supported by linux have their place. xfs for instance is good if you want constant, predictable throughput | 07:27 |
| legend2440 | has anyone had fsck run in hardy? in gutsy it would give info about contiguous files when it finished. hardy doesn't. is that normal? | 07:27 |
| Dr_willis | ceil420, i would look into gettting some replacement hd's | 07:27 |
| XceII | Like I said: Donate monthly, Like I do, be a man, support your distro, k? | 07:27 |
| Radtoo^laptop | ceil420: But the most useful and robust for most users still is ext3. | 07:28 |
| ceil420 | Dr_willis, i'd like to :x | 07:28 |
| aoeuid | does anyone know how to get scim working in skype on hardy? | 07:28 |
| bazhang | #ubuntu-offtopic Please xcell | 07:28 |
| EddieDied | im trying to reinstall linux-image etc anything to do with my current version | 07:28 |
| EddieDied | maybe that will work | 07:28 |
| EddieDied | and will restore it | 07:28 |
| Gman99999 | nickrud how do i make a backup copy of the file Im kind of a newb with this stuff? | 07:28 |
| Fa | XceII you don't have to donate money you can always seed the torrents for ubuntu | 07:28 |
| InfernoX222 | what is teh hardy equivalent of restricted driver manager? | 07:28 |
| wolfwalker | Yea verily, it doth WORK! Verily, yay! | 07:28 |
| EddieDied | InfernoX222: hardware drivers | 07:29 |
| ceil420 | XceII, Ubuntu has enough financial backing in Canonical :p | 07:29 |
| nickrud | Gman99999 cd /etc && cp sudoers sudoers.beforenickrudmuckedabout (get my nick on _another_ machine!) | 07:29 |
| bazhang | InfernoX222: hardware drivers | 07:29 |
| XceII | Fa I donate to Ubuntu monthly, it has freed me from os slavery, | 07:29 |
| ceil420 | donate for the kernel! :p | 07:29 |
| Fa | how much do you donate? | 07:29 |
| bouma | could i please ask for advice on a good digital tv viewer for ubuntu ? there are quite a few options | 07:29 |
| XceII | % | 07:29 |
| wolfwalker | Sorry, just had to effuse for a bit. 8.04 finally recognizes my laptop's soundcard! :D :D | 07:29 |
| bazhang | !ot > xcell this is not the chit chat channel | 07:29 |
| ceil420 | bouma, MythTV? | 07:29 |
| EddieDied | bouma, haupaugge | 07:29 |
| maco_ | cky: woopra just crashed my system. twice. | 07:29 |
| wolfwalker | Night y'all | 07:29 |
| nickrud | !offtopic | XceII | 07:29 |
| ubotu | XceII: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome! | 07:29 |
| cky | maco_: That sucks!! | 07:29 |
| EddieDied | oh software | 07:29 |
| EddieDied | thought you meant hardware | 07:29 |
| bouma | ceil420: hrm, i'll try | 07:29 |
| === maco_ is now known as maco | ||
| aoeuid | in that case, does anyone know how to get qt4 and scim to play nice in general? | 07:30 |
| maco | cky: lets try for a third | 07:30 |
| Dr_willis | bouma, you mean a digital tv tuner card? | 07:30 |
| bod_ | Radtoo^laptop: so i now have 4 partitions / /home /boot swap first 3 are ext3 and swap is swap -- correct? | 07:30 |
| InfernoX222 | bazhang: i have nothing listed in the hardware manager | 07:30 |
| ceil420 | bouma, i've never used it myself, but i've heard it's difficult to install. there's Mythbuntu that comes with it, though | 07:30 |
| cky | maco: Le sigh. | 07:30 |
| XceII | ok bazhang IM COOL, AND qUIET. | 07:30 |
| Gman99999 | nickrud so if i do sudo cp sudoers sudoers.g? | 07:31 |
| Jaymac | What's up with the forum? Anyone else getting a database error? | 07:31 |
| EddieDied | ok I cant even install packaged, I still get cannot create /dev/null: Permission denied | 07:31 |
| maco | cky: heyy found out why the root complaints even when run as root. its getting a 404 when it downloads | 07:31 |
| nickrud | Gman99999 sure, that'll work | 07:31 |
| kangkong | hello need help can someone tell me whats wrong my xorg.conf file ? http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/64650/ <------ Working compiz but no window border VS http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/64651/ <------ Working compiz with window border ... | 07:31 |
| Radtoo^laptop | bod_: yep, sounds very good | 07:31 |
| bazhang | Jaymac: loads okay here | 07:31 |
| bouma | ceil420: oh, well i just want something that works with no setup ideally | 07:32 |
| Radtoo^laptop | bod_: all of them can be primary btw, unless you want to add more later | 07:32 |
| Jaymac | bazhang: ok back up for me now :) | 07:32 |
| Gman99999 | nickrud ok now how do i load the sudoers file into the visudo? | 07:32 |
| InfernoX222 | would it be possible to copy the driver/res used in a live cd boot to my current install? i saw this talked about for another distro | 07:32 |
| Gman99999 | nickrud will gedit work the same? | 07:32 |
| bod_ | Radtoo^laptop: ok, im gonna hit the hardy button of doom -------------- INSTALL -------------- they are all primary i believe | 07:32 |
| legend2440 | Jaymac: i was until just now | 07:32 |
| boyam | exit | 07:32 |
| bazhang | InfernoX222: could you elaborate a bit please? | 07:33 |
| nickrud | Gman99999 the easiest way would be to open gedit to a blank file, copy and paste from the web page, then save it to your desktop as sudoers. Then cp ~/Desktop/sudoers /etc/sudoers | 07:33 |
| Gman99999 | nickrud oddly enough i got into this whole mess when i was trying to add firestarter to load at boot time | 07:33 |
| AdemoS | bazhang, linux-ubuntu-modules-2.6.24-16.23 | 07:33 |
| bod_ | lol, my machine name is bodubuntustu (sorry bhout the ot but it had to be said) | 07:33 |
| cky | maco: Yeah, let's just say that its URLs are not the most reliable. | 07:33 |
| Radtoo^laptop | bod_: great, good luck :) | 07:33 |
| nickrud | Gman99999 oh, the old gotta have the gui firestarter ;) . | 07:33 |
| cky | maco: Even its download host, static.woopra.com, has a CNAME to a nonexistent domain. | 07:33 |
| bazhang | AdemoS: what is the output of uname -r please | 07:33 |
| XceII | bazhang: im out, god bless you bro, and thx for your support. ...ceil420...shaddup already, stop being a channel hog. | 07:33 |
| Rene | Hello. Has anyone have had trouble with desktop effects after upgrading to 8.04? | 07:34 |
| InfernoX222 | my res after driver install is stuck at either 640x480 or 800x600 and no higher... once installed the grapics errored out and i have not been able to fix it... i have tried installing other drivers and using envy but nothing seems to get me back to my brior state | 07:34 |
| InfernoX222 | prior** | 07:34 |
| bod_ | Radtoo^laptop: ty -- il come back shouting and revert to gutsy if this fails | 07:34 |
| bazhang | !coc > xcell | 07:34 |
| crdlb | kangkong: you don't have AddARGBGLXVisuals in the Screen that is actually being used in the ServerLayout | 07:34 |
| * nickrud wonders if he should be faster on the trigger | 07:34 | |
| PmDematagoda | InfernoX222, what VGA card? | 07:34 |
| AdemoS | bazhang, are you following a guide? Because it might be easier for me to a get a list of information rather then going back and forth. | 07:34 |
| nickrud | bazhang do you think I should have been faster on the trigger with xce11 ? | 07:34 |
| InfernoX222 | geforce 8600m gt | 07:34 |
| Rene | ati | 07:34 |
| Gman99999 | nickrud lol does it boot anyway at boot time, because it wasnt loading or showing itself in the system monitor | 07:34 |
| kangkong | <crdlb> : ok ill look for it | 07:34 |
| nickrud | Gman99999 the firewall does, just not the gui part | 07:35 |
| PmDematagoda | InfernoX222, what exactly is the mistake? Is the Nvidia driver loaded after boot-up? | 07:35 |
| bod_ | nickrud: yes, what were u playin at -- grrr slow sunday people ;-) lol | 07:35 |
| Gman99999 | nickrud ok screw that then | 07:35 |
| bouma | Dr_willis: yeah ive got a winfast drv2000H | 07:35 |
| Gman99999 | nickrud i ran into some trouble when rkhunter said it wasnt loading or something | 07:35 |
| nickrud | Gman99999 you can test for that later with sudo iptables -L , it lists all the firewall rules | 07:35 |
| kangkong | <crdlb> : i have it... in my current xorg.conf on the one's without window border | 07:35 |
| bazhang | http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=719457 sorry AdemoS; this is one though there a couple of others--> the search terms I used was ubuntu hardy belkin (card number here) | 07:35 |
| InfernoX222 | PmDematagoda: once i reboot the computer it says it has encountered an error then has me select a default driver (meaning the installed one dosnt work) | 07:35 |
| Dr_willis | bouma, you might want to check the #mythbuntu guys out. to see how well mythtv supports that card. (or if its supported at all) | 07:36 |
| maco | cky: the install script is trying to do some magic using tail | 07:36 |
| crdlb | kangkong: you have it in the wrong Screen | 07:36 |
| kangkong | <crdlb> : i did use meldiff viewer | 07:36 |
| kangkong | <crdlb> : ... so where should i put it? can you instruct me? if it's okay... | 07:36 |
| EddieDied | ok I found that KERNEL=="null", MODE="0666" is not in 40-permissions | 07:36 |
| EddieDied | I will try to add that | 07:36 |
| PmDematagoda | InfernoX222, ok. Now do this:- open a modules file:- gksudo gedit /etc/default/linux-restricted-modules-common | 07:37 |
| cky | maco: Yes, and the tail offset is all screwed up. | 07:37 |
| bazhang | nickrud: haha nah--just did not like some of his terminology (me overtired and cranky is the real problem) ;] | 07:37 |
| maco | cky: that could explain why it cant gunzip it | 07:37 |
| crdlb | kangkong: look at ServerLayout. it says Screen "Screen0", so you must set it in the Screen that has "Screen0" as its Identifier | 07:37 |
| nickrud | bazhang :) | 07:37 |
| PmDematagoda | InfernoX222, you see the DISABLED_MODULES line? | 07:37 |
| kangkong | crdlb : okay... im on it... | 07:37 |
| cky | maco: Yes, and even when I locate the gunzip file via magic numbers, it's all corrupted. | 07:37 |
| bod_ | bazhang: old man syndrome | 07:37 |
| InfernoX222 | yes i added "nv nv_new" to it | 07:37 |
| maco | cky: theyre dumb. | 07:37 |
| bazhang | haha bod_ just you wait | 07:37 |
| marshal_mellow | i just installed 8.04 | 07:37 |
| MrJones | can someone help me in a private message | 07:37 |
| cky | maco: Heck yes. | 07:37 |

| cky | maco: Yes, and even then it doesn't get very far, because the last file it extracts, i4jinstaller.jar (or something) is totally corrupted too. | 07:38 |
| InfernoX222 | then do a reboot and it should work? | 07:38 |
| bod_ | nickrud: arent you an op? | 07:38 |
| PmDematagoda | InfernoX222, did that? | 07:38 |
| InfernoX222 | yes | 07:38 |

| PmDematagoda | InfernoX222, reconfigure the X-Server | 07:38 |
| PmDematagoda | InfernoX222, then reboot | 07:38 |
| nickrud | bod_ yes, sorta. Got kick/ban privs, anyway | 07:39 |
| PmDematagoda | InfernoX222, make sure that you reconfigured the X-Server to use the nvidia driver | 07:39 |
| InfernoX222 | umm... (ima newb) whats the command for that/ | 07:39 |

| EddieDied | when I do update-initramfs -u I get this: http://pastebin.ca/999078 | 07:40 |

| bazhang | http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=4483613&postcount=9 AdemoS this seems to a possible solution dont know if you have seen it | 07:40 |

| bod_ | artti: amarok is good | 07:42 |
| michael__ | can someone tell me what to do if wine has no internet connection? (e.g. firefox cannot connect) - Yes, i've already edited the hosts file :-) | 07:42 |
| nickrud | Gman99999 ok, close that terminal window, open another, and try sudo | 07:43 |
| bazhang | AdemoS: that seems to be for gutsy though ;[ | 07:43 |
| maco | blame: it might be separated into apt-file though | 07:43 |
| artti | bod_, amarok is for kde | 07:43 |
| AdemoS | bazhang, yeah >_< | 07:43 |

| bazhang | artti: you can use kde with gnome if you wish | 07:43 |
| PmDematagoda | InfernoX222, ok | 07:43 |
| Gman99999 | nickrud ok it works does the root privleges close once you close the terminal? | 07:43 |
| blame | maco: I don't seem to have apt-file? | 07:43 |
| PmDematagoda | InfernoX222, gimme a min | 07:43 |
| hydrogen | amarok works on gnome a lot better than rhythmbox works at all | 07:43 |

| PmDematagoda | InfernoX222, that's fine | 07:44 |
| ion | bazhang: sorry I didn't get it which one ? | 07:44 |
| AdemoS | bazhang, I may have to stick with 7.10 till I can test this out on another machine : / | 07:44 |
| PmDematagoda | InfernoX222, that's supposed to happen | 07:44 |
| InfernoX222 | ok | 07:44 |

| AdemoS | bazhang, it always worked fine out-of-the-box, with 7.04 and 7.10 | 07:44 |
| InfernoX222 | ok ill bb in a bit then | 07:44 |
| artti | hydrogen, i have intsalled amarok twice. One time with 7.10 and one time 8.04. Didn't work. | 07:44 |
| nickrud | Gman99999 in that terminal, yes. whoami tells you who you're running as: try it now, as g , then su - root , then try it again. Then type exit, and try it again | 07:44 |
| maco | blame: oh wait that tells you on stuff thats already installed, i think...maybe | 07:44 |
| witakr | hey folks! | 07:44 |
| maco | blame: im pretty sure its possible though...ive never had to do it | 07:45 |
| nickrud | Gman99999 when I said try, I mean typing whoami | 07:45 |
| hydrogen | artti: thats a really good description of your problems | 07:45 |

| Gman99999 | nickrud lol I got it | 07:45 |
| artti | hydrogen, maybe some other music player? | 07:45 |
| witakr | Anyknow know if Hardy has better driver support for nvidia cards? | 07:45 |

| bazhang | alt f2 gnome-terminal selina__ | 07:45 |
| nickrud | Gman99999 now, you should run sudo passwd -l root . that will lock the root account again, and hopefully you'll never need it again :) | 07:46 |
| ion | bazhang: right I gonna try it ...thanks for you help | 07:46 |
| kriket | i have geforce 8500 gt and it works | 07:46 |
| selina__ | the terminal isn't opening, but some other apps , such as , mozilla browser is opening | 07:46 |
| Zackymc_k | hydrogen is a drum machine | 07:46 |
| Gman99999 | nickrud ok everything works | 07:46 |
| bod_ | 7600t works charmfully | 07:46 |
| blame | maco: I've spent most of my time around redhat-based OS's and "yum provedes" helped me alot when I had to install something but was missing certain libraries. I am wondering how can that be executed in ubuntu? | 07:46 |
| hydrogen | If you only needed root for a onetime thing than why not use sudo -i .. | 07:46 |
| kangkong | now i have window border | 07:46 |
| bazhang | !info envyng-gtk | witakr please see this | 07:46 |
| ubotu | witakr please see this: envyng-gtk (source: envyng-gtk): install the ATI or the NVIDIA driver. In component universe, is optional. Version 1.1.1ubuntu1 (hardy), package size 93 kB, installed size 324 kB | 07:46 |

| maco | blame: i havent tried it before, but i *think* apt-file does it...im trying no | 07:46 |
| nickrud | Gman99999 I learned a lot about how to walk someone through this, the next guy will have it much easier ;) Thanks | 07:46 |
| EddieDied | im going to do a clean install anyway I decided, since this installation is an upgrade from gutsy - feisty | 07:46 |
| legend2440 | selina__: try alt+F2 then type gnome-terminal | 07:46 |
| maco | blame: trying now* | 07:46 |
| selina__ | but terminal at my pc can be accessed from ohter pc using ssh | 07:47 |
| EddieDied | seeing /dev/null errors and cant fix it | 07:47 |
| witakr | thanks bazhang | 07:47 |
| EddieDied | maybe a clean install is best | 07:47 |
| maco | blame: yum makes me want apt back :P | 07:47 |
| EddieDied | I'd rather fix this null error | 07:47 |
| ceil420 | selina__, you can get to a terminal by hitting ctrl+alt+F1 to get to "tty1". to get back to X (the graphical 'tty' that you're in now), hit ctrl+alt+F7. i don't know why you can't open gnome-terminal, though | 07:47 |
| Gman99999 | nickrud no thank you so very much!! | 07:47 |
| EddieDied | bazhang: any idea? when I do update-initramfs -u I get this: http://pastebin.ca/999078 | 07:48 |
| Conexion | alright, so I'm thinkin' of upgrading to hardy... can I just do a apt-get dist-update...or do I need to download a new live CD? | 07:48 |
| amenado | blame it maybe an option to dpkg, try man dkpg to see if an equivalent provides from rpm is available | 07:48 |
| bazhang | Conexion: sudo do-release-upgrade | 07:48 |
| Gman99999 | nickrud ok when i type the command in to lock root it gave me some options a whole list of them, does that mean it did it? | 07:48 |
| maco | blame: ok yeah, "sudo apt-file update" first, then you can do "apt-file search <filename>" | 07:48 |
| Conexion | bazhang: are you on here all the time, because you're the one who always helps me :D | 07:48 |
| selina__ | some other apps , are also not opening , such as synaptic package manager | 07:48 |
| bazhang | Conexion: ;] | 07:48 |
| Conexion | hehe | 07:49 |
| blame | maco: I am doing that now... | 07:49 |
| bazhang | selina__: on your desktop or in the ssh session | 07:49 |

| AdemoS | g'night | 07:49 |
| bazhang | cya ademos | 07:49 |
| Gman99999 | nickrud is there anyway to test to see if it worked? | 07:49 |
| nickrud | Gman99999 it should simply say password changed | 07:49 |
| selina__ | besides , when i restart my pc, it hangs before showing the login window and i can't login. | 07:49 |
| Adam420 | hello | 07:49 |
| ceil420 | selina__, weird :o i'd say "check ps -aux for running instances", but i know you can have more than one terminal open at a time, so that oughtn't be a problem (dno if you can have more than one Synaptic window open at a time) | 07:50 |
| nickrud | Gman99999 sure, try su - root | 07:50 |
| InfernoX222 | ok restarted and got the error again asking me to manually configure and didnt have the driver listed and no way to select it... typed sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg and got a message about overwriging a custom config and backing up current | 07:50 |
| douma | i need a program to use light scribe | 07:50 |
| === HACKhalo2_ is now known as HACKhalo2 | ||
| maco | blame: it cant reach package lists for some things is what its sayig | 07:50 |
| Gman99999 | nickrud no didnt work | 07:50 |
| bazhang | douma hardy or gutsy | 07:50 |
| Gman99999 | nickrud i can still log in as root | 07:50 |
| maco | blame: for me it said security and backports for hardy which, as far as i know, dont actually exist yet | 07:50 |
| kangkong | ufw vs firestarter which one should i use in hardy ? I need to share my internet connection using my hardy box as a router? | 07:50 |
| nickrud | Gman99999 sudo passwd -l root | 07:50 |
| ceil420 | selina__, did you install any dodgy programs or run any commands in the terminal that you weren't sure of recently? | 07:50 |
| bazhang | kangkong: ufw is the new easy one--your choice really | 07:50 |
| maco | kangkong: i know firestarter can set it up | 07:50 |
| blame | maco: it says: Can't get http://se.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/hardy-updates/Contents-i386.gz | 07:51 |
| nickrud | Gman99999 thats and L , not a One by the way | 07:51 |
| maco | kangkong: ive never touched ufw, so no idea if it has an option | 07:51 |
| Fritzel | whenever wine is playing sound, youtube videos seem to play for a few seconds then stop, is there a way to resolve this? | 07:51 |
| SeaPhor | i cant sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg anymore!?!?! | 07:51 |
| AnRkey | why does apt-get update use ppa.launchpad.net when it's not in my /etc/apt/sources.list? | 07:51 |
| noseyb | I'm looking for help to install ubuntu on an xp machine problem is there is already a partion on the C: drive used for storing the windows XP installation files . Is it tikely that will interfere with the ubuntu installation ? | 07:51 |
| nickrud | SeaPhor nope. | 07:51 |
| maco | blame: yeah i dont think the package list exists yet because there havent been any post-release updates yet | 07:51 |
| Gman99999 | nickrud yep I compared them lol thanks very much again it worked | 07:51 |
| kriket | is there a way to "skin" the desktop and kinda make it look like a mac? ive seen people with it but i dont know how to go about getting it | 07:51 |
| bazhang | Fritzel: download the youtube vids? youtube-dl allows for that | 07:51 |
| blame | maco: so now what ;( | 07:51 |
| RITN | dam | 07:51 |
| absnt | what command would i use to display only the date, port, source, protocol, and service from the messages log to a term? | 07:51 |
| maco | blame: it got the regular package lists though, so you can do "apt-file search <filename>" and itll look in the repos that do exist | 07:52 |
| Fritzel | well I don't always need to | 07:52 |
| SeaPhor | nickrud, what do i do? | 07:52 |
| Fritzel | and that is a work around, is there a solution? | 07:52 |
| RITN | whats hardy? | 07:52 |
| blame | maco: lets try.. | 07:52 |
| bazhang | Fritzel: just a suggestion | 07:52 |
| maco | RITN: 8.04 | 07:52 |
| kangkong | bazhang : will ufw has an option to share internet connection? just like firestarter? | 07:52 |
| RITN | heh | 07:52 |
| nickrud | SeaPhor depends on what you want to do, some things I haven't figured out yet | 07:52 |
| InfernoX222 | PmDematagoda you have pm :) | 07:52 |
| AnRkey | RITN, hardy = ubuntu 8.04 | 07:52 |
| RITN | i just dled 7 like 2 days ago | 07:52 |
| Dr_willis | absnt, you could grep out the wanted lines. with the grep command of course. :) | 07:52 |
| maco | RITN: its development name was Hardy Heron...hence the wallpaper | 07:52 |
| bazhang | kangkong: not sure have not tried it | 07:52 |
| cloudbook | Hi, I'm trying to get Ubuntu installed on the cloudbook, it's needs a USB drive, I've tried the directions here: http://www.pendrivelinux.com/2008/04/09/usb-ubuntu-804-installation-from-windows/ with three versions of ubuntu 8 (xubuntu, ubuntu, ubuntu-alternate) I can't get it to boot, I get stuck at the first menu counting down from 15 seconds, I cannot exit this menu, the countdown repeats. Help! | 07:52 |
| Fritzel | bazhang, oh I'm getting that too thank you, but I'm just looking for something that's a bit more the way it's supposed to work | 07:52 |
| RITN | 8.04 avail in server? and is it stable? | 07:52 |
| douma | i just install 8.04 | 07:52 |
| prosun | Like selina i have the same problem | 07:52 |
| PmDematagoda | InfernoX222, what happened? | 07:52 |
| InfernoX222 | ok restarted and got the error again asking me to manually configure and didnt have the driver listed and no way to select it... typed sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg and got a message about overwriging a custom config and backing up current | 07:53 |
| maco | RITN: yes its long term support. it was released the day you downloaded 7.10, apparently | 07:53 |
| AnRkey | RITN, yes | 07:53 |
| AnRkey | RITN, it's got ebox too now | 07:53 |
| ceil420 | ebox? | 07:53 |
| blame | maco: not what I expected but I think it'll work | 07:53 |
| kriket | is there a way to "skin" the desktop and kinda make it look like a mac? ive seen people with it but i dont know how to go about getting it | 07:53 |
| absnt | Dr_willis: is there a way to grep in the text after certain words like show txt after SRC= | 07:53 |
| PmDematagoda | InfernoX222, can you manually install the driver? | 07:53 |
| bazhang | Fritzel: sometimes wine likes to take over the sound with certain games; #winehq if you dont get a decent answer here | 07:53 |
| maco | blame: how does yum provides list it? | 07:53 |
| ceil420 | kriket, www.gnome-look.org | 07:53 |
| RITN | what is ebox? | 07:53 |
| Fritzel | bazhang, alright thank you | 07:53 |
| prosun | I tried to reconfigure the the xserver-xorg after rebooting | 07:53 |
| PmDematagoda | InfernoX222, I find the manual install method to be much more reliable | 07:53 |
| kriket | thanks celi420 | 07:53 |
| prosun | but the problem still remains | 07:54 |
| ceil420 | np | 07:54 |
| AnRkey | http://ebox-platform.com/ | 07:54 |
| bazhang | kriket: install awn--avant-window-navigator | 07:54 |
| douma | bazhang i just install 8.04 | 07:54 |
| chazco | Hi.. adding clocksource=hpet to the kernel command line fixes the Hardy slow boot problem. Is it safe to make this permanent? | 07:54 |
| InfernoX222 | you mean ctr alt f1 to root then sh (pack name) and restart? | 07:54 |
| Gman99999 | nickrud Im trying to mount a macintosh hard drive as root what do i type in to do that? | 07:54 |
| PmDematagoda | InfernoX222, yes | 07:54 |
| RITN | heh | 07:54 |
| bazhang | douma you have an issue with that? | 07:54 |
| witakr | bazhang, Hey, i Google envyng-gtk and didn't see anything with Ubuntu, is there a link or am i misunderstanding? | 07:54 |
| InfernoX222 | thats what got me here... but i will try it again haha | 07:54 |
| RITN | i just installed 7 a few min ago | 07:54 |
| RITN | hehe | 07:54 |
| PmDematagoda | InfernoX222, but allow the Nvidia installer to configure the X-Server itself | 07:54 |
| RITN | can 7 be upgraded to 8? | 07:54 |
| ceil420 | 7.10 can | 07:54 |
| blame | maco: pretty clean and specefic it shows you exactly the package available in their repos whichi will solve your deps. and all is left for you is to yum install *it* | 07:54 |
| ceil420 | 7.04 can't | 07:54 |
| Gman99999 | nickrud this part worked ok sudo mkdir /media/Macintosh HD | 07:54 |
| bazhang | witakr: sudo apt-get install envyng-gtk (from the repos) | 07:54 |
| PmDematagoda | InfernoX222, also, before running the installer, kill GDM | 07:54 |
| RITN | ceil420: you talking to me? | 07:54 |
| ceil420 | RITN, yeah sorry | 07:55 |
| prosun | Hi buddy i am telling my problem again for your attention | 07:55 |

| PmDematagoda | InfernoX222, with sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop | 07:55 |
| InfernoX222 | think you could get me a suggested driver for a 8600m gt? maybe the one i have isnt good | 07:55 |
| witakr | bazhang, thanks | 07:55 |
| InfernoX222 | yah i use the command | 07:55 |
| noseyb | anyone help a nervous noob then ? | 07:55 |
| RITN | ceil420: np. is it reccomended that one would upgrade? or should i just do a full reinstall. | 07:55 |
| InfernoX222 | it yells at me if i dont haha | 07:55 |
| kriket | thanks everyone :) | 07:55 |
| nickrud | Gman99999 change that to /media/Macintosh_HD , don't use spaces whenever you can help it in file or directory names. | 07:55 |
| SeaPhor | nickrud, forget the -phigh, i just wanna have the ability to config my card,,, ??? we sellin out? | 07:55 |

| bazhang | prosun more info please | 07:55 |
| ceil420 | RITN, many people upgrade with no problem. i'm not one, but that shouldn't stop you from doing it :x | 07:56 |

| selina__ | bazhang, on my desktop session | 07:56 |

| InfernoX222 | ? | 07:56 |
| PmDematagoda | InfernoX222, wait | 07:56 |
| blame | maco: things here are a little "loose", perhaps I need more time to get acquainted ;) | 07:56 |
| RITN | yeh i suppose that is true. Anyways I download the server versions. Now I want to install X. what command do I have to run to install X? I know it uses apt-get but I want to know the specific packages. Like gnome and shit etc. | 07:56 |
| PmDematagoda | InfernoX222, I'll check it out | 07:56 |
| InfernoX222 | kk | 07:57 |
| Wolf23 | somebody help me please! | 07:57 |
| bazhang | ritn ubuntu-desktop and please refrain from cursing thanks | 07:57 |
| SeaPhor | nickrud, well thanx for the info, plz send more as u get it | 07:57 |
| ceil420 | RITN, probably ubuntu-desktop | 07:57 |
| nickrud | RITN if you want the full ubuntu experience, then sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop | 07:57 |
| chazco | Hi.. adding clocksource=hpet to the kernel command line fixes the Hardy slow boot problem. Is it safe to make this permanent? | 07:57 |
| cloudbook | Hi, I'm trying to get Ubuntu installed on the cloudbook, it's needs a USB drive, I've tried the directions here: http://www.pendrivelinux.com/2008/04/09/usb-ubuntu-804-installation-from-windows/ with three versions of ubuntu 8 (xubuntu, ubuntu, ubuntu-alternate) I can't get it to boot, I get stuck at the first menu counting down from 15 seconds, I cannot exit this menu, the countdown repeats. Help! | 07:57 |
| maco | blame: do you mean it just asks for a specific file and tells you the one package? | 07:57 |
| witakr | bazhang, after running the sudo atp-get for the gtk thing, do i need to install the normal nvidia driver? | 07:57 |
| * Scrounch_ is now away: off | 07:57 | |
| PmDematagoda | InfernoX222, you have a beta driver | 07:57 |
| nickrud | SeaPhor it's near the top of my to do list. What are you trying to configure, anyway? | 07:57 |
| InfernoX222 | that sucks | 07:57 |
| === Scrounch_ is now known as Scrounch[AfK] | ||
| Koheleth | guys, whats the best way to format a dvd in ubuntu? | 07:57 |
| RITN | that was one command that I found. I just wanted to make sure that I get the right one before I execute it. | 07:57 |
| maco | blame: apt-file takes a search term that can be just part of the filename and then lists everything that provides something with that | 07:57 |
| PmDematagoda | InfernoX222, the latest stable one is here http://www.nvidia.com/object/linux_display_amd64_169.12.html | 07:57 |

| bazhang | !helpme | prosun | 07:58 |
| ubotu | prosun: Avoid your questions being followed by a trail of "Please, help me", "Can nobody help me?", "I really need this!", and so on. This just contributes to making the channel unreadable. If you are not answered, ask again later; but see also !repeat and !patience | 07:58 |

| iammcfinkel | i was told to come here and ask for someone who knows how to reset irc passwords? | 07:59 |
| maco | prosun: being a jerk will just make us annoyed at you and then how much of helpful mood do you think we'll be in? | 07:59 |
| milly1234 | Exclimation marks make me want to hit inanimate objects. | 07:59 |
| witakr | bazhang, ok and I launch it by typing sudo apt-get install envyng-gtk into terminal | 07:59 |
| nickrud | Gman99999 you mount partitions on the disk, not the disk itself | 07:59 |
| PmDematagoda | prosun just give the error without being emotional:) | 07:59 |

| witakr | bazhang, lmao, never mind, im stupid | 07:59 |
| prosun | But really i am panic with the problem | 08:00 |
| nickrud | prosun and this place scrolls so fast, most of us probably missed your question. | 08:00 |
| PmDematagoda | prosun yes | 08:00 |
| PmDematagoda | prosun an X-Server error is always troubling | 08:00 |
| witakr | bazhang, yeah i foud it, thank you baz | 08:00 |

| Gman99999 | nickrud is there an easy way to copy a folder by root from the gui? | 08:01 |
| RITN | 46 min to install ubuntu-desktop | 08:01 |
| RITN | hehe | 08:01 |
| witakr | bazhang, how do i find out what driver version to install? i cant do hardware detection because with 7.1 it hang up during boot but i just upgraded to hardy | 08:01 |
| RITN | this is a bit simpler then gentoo :p | 08:02 |
| PmDematagoda | prosun did you try:- sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg | 08:02 |
| prosun | i did dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg | 08:02 |
| InfernoX222 | PMDEMATAGODA YOU ARE A GOD AMONG LINUX USERS!!!! THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!! | 08:02 |
| prosun | but nothing good happen | 08:02 |
| nickrud | Gman99999 gksudo nautilus will get you a root file manager, but it's very easy to mess things up. Be cautious ;) | 08:02 |
| PmDematagoda | InfernoX222, lol, it works? | 08:02 |
| justdave | so if I boot the Hardy LiveCD, my sound works. But if I boot the existing system from the hard drive, it doesn't. They appear to be using the same kernel. Sound on the installed system was working on the previous kernel (I've been running hardy prereleases), and broke when I pulled final | 08:02 |
| Aggraxis | you got it sorted out? | 08:02 |
| RITN | no one answered my question. does ubuntu update its kernel wit apt-get. Is that even possible? | 08:02 |
| InfernoX222 | yes | 08:02 |
| ceil420 | RITN, Ubuntu is designed with ease of use in mind. Gentoo... isn't <_< | 08:02 |
| justdave | anyone have any ideas? | 08:02 |
| Aggraxis | what did you do? lol | 08:02 |
| InfernoX222 | now if you know about fixing a dlink dwa-643 then my first born is yours lol | 08:02 |
| prosun | PmDematagoda : no i did not try that | 08:02 |
| sven_ | im fucking | 08:02 |
| bazhang | prosun: pastebin the output of lshw, lspci and cat /etc/apt/sources.list please | 08:02 |
| Aggraxis | RITN: it can yes | 08:02 |
| PmDematagoda | InfernoX222, :) | 08:02 |
| PmDematagoda | InfernoX222, glad I was able to help:) | 08:03 |
| RITN | Aggraxis: does it by default? | 08:03 |
| prosun | PmDematagoda: what will that do? | 08:03 |
| Aggraxis | theres a package called linux-generic | 08:03 |
| Flannel | RITN: Yes it does | 08:03 |
| bazhang | language and offtopic sven | 08:03 |
| Byan | is there a guide someone on how to remove pulseaudio? | 08:03 |
| PmDematagoda | prosun it will reconfigure the X-Server with the default options | 08:03 |
| Aggraxis | so yes, it would | 08:03 |
| Gman99999 | nickrud ok Ive done that before basically Im just trying to salvage any information that I can before i wipe this hard drive | 08:03 |
| RITN | Aggraxis: and doesnt it have to restart? | 08:03 |
| nickrud | RITN if you have the package linux-generic installed, yes | 08:03 |
| ceil420 | RITN, Ubuntu will update the kernel if there's a dire need (for security purposes). It has a package freeze so you can't update packages for anything other than security between releases. Which has recently annoyed me, because it won't let me update libconfuse so i can install a new wm ;x | 08:03 |
| PmDematagoda | prosun that's pretty much it | 08:03 |
| Aggraxis | it would naturally have to restart | 08:03 |
| Flannel | RITN: It does have to restart, but only to take the new kernel into effect | 08:03 |
| sirrus | Morning everyone, I have a question regarding the gnome-keyring manager in Hardy. Is it just me, or is the keyring broken, just like in Gutsy? | 08:03 |
| Koheleth | guys, is it possible to force fomat a dvd disc -rw and I mean really force as its putting up a fight | 08:03 |
| nickrud | Gman99999 in that case, copy away :) | 08:03 |
| skinnymg1 | hey can i plug my stream once real fast | 08:03 |
| RITN | Flannel: does it ask first? | 08:03 |
| InfernoX222 | PmDematagoda, do you know how to make a DLink DWA-643 work with madwifi? | 08:03 |
| bazhang | skinnymg1: not here | 08:04 |
| skinnymg1 | ok | 08:04 |
| PmDematagoda | InfernoX222, I'm not very good with wireless | 08:04 |
| PmDematagoda | InfernoX222, sorry | 08:04 |
| skinnymg1 | wasnt sure | 08:04 |
| prosun | PmDematagoda: I did dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg only . that time it was showing serveral error message | 08:04 |
| ceil420 | RITN, it doesn't even ask, i think. it just does the update, and you restart whenever you want | 08:04 |
| unimatrix9 | what is the successor of beep-mediaplayer? | 08:04 |
| nickrud | skinnymg1 #ubuntu-offtopic is good for that | 08:04 |
| Flannel | RITN: It doesn't restart by default. It just tells you that you need to restart to upgrade your kernel. You can continue running (with no slow down) just fine without restarting, for... however you want to have a non-newer kernel | 08:04 |
| InfernoX222 | alright :) no biggie... im off to play some games hehe thank you ang good night | 08:04 |
| rayk_sland | glx problem with hardy heron and intel chipset | 08:04 |
| PmDematagoda | prosun what error message? | 08:04 |
| milly1234 | with FireFox 3 system monitor, top, or killall are my friends.... | 08:04 |
| Gman99999 | nickrud the only problem is getting permission, root permission to copy the files and its not working very easily | 08:04 |
| PmDematagoda | InfernoX222, good night:) | 08:04 |
| prosun | PmDematagoda:/dev/sda/wacom not found like this | 08:04 |
| bazhang | prosun need those pastebins thanks | 08:05 |
| witakr | bazhang, how do i find out what driver version to install? i cant do hardware detection because with 7.1 it hang up during boot but i just upgraded to hardy | 08:05 |
| skinnymg1 | its ok im new to the whole chat thing but ill ttyl | 08:05 |
| PmDematagoda | prosun you use a tablet? | 08:05 |
| rayk_sland | (/usr/lib/dri/i915_dri.so: undefined symbol: _glapi_Dispatch) | 08:05 |
| nickrud | Gman99999 yeah, doing things as root is done best with the terminal using sudo , but there's a learning curve | 08:05 |
| unimatrix9 | what is a great audio player for ubuntu? | 08:05 |
| prosun | PmDematagoda: then i fixed the problem by comment some line in the file of xorg.conf | 08:05 |
| bazhang | witakr: for nvidia? it will choose the correct one for you | 08:05 |
| ceil420 | unimatrix9, audacity | 08:05 |
| ceil420 | erm | 08:05 |
| prosun | PmDematagoda: then font path was not valid | 08:05 |
| ceil420 | unimatrix9, audacious, sorry | 08:05 |
| PmDematagoda | prosun, I'm really sorry, I've got to go and eat lunch, can you hold on please? Or you could ask another person | 08:05 |
| nickrud | Gman99999 but I'm shutting down, see you about | 08:05 |
| RITN | ceil420: thats kinda like gentoo with its 'untested' packages. isnt thier a flag to can set somewhere just to update anyways? | 08:05 |
| ceil420 | unimatrix9, audacity is a sound /editor/, if you're ever interested in that :p | 08:05 |
| sajuuk | hey guys, how do i change shortcuts for my symbols? Its so i can type my vowels in umlauts properly | 08:05 |
| Dr_willis | gentoo has more flags then you can shake a flag at. :) | 08:06 |
| witakr | bazhang, yeah, nvidia, but it tell me to select the driver versio i want to install | 08:06 |
| bazhang | haha | 08:06 |
| ceil420 | RITN, if there is, i don't know about it. i wish someone would tell me so i can update libconfuse without worrying about Hardy :x | 08:06 |
| bazhang | witakr: what card? | 08:06 |
| witakr | 6200 | 08:06 |
| witakr | oc | 08:06 |
| RITN | ceil420: did you post to the forums? | 08:06 |
| bazhang | witakr: not sure there; best trial and error this one | 08:06 |
| justdave | is there something I can reconfigure to get all the default audio settings back? | 08:07 |
| RITN | what are the ubuntu forums here? | 08:07 |
| Flannel | RITN: what? | 08:07 |
| bazhang | !forums | ritn | 08:07 |
| ubotu | ritn: The Ubuntu forums can be found at http://www.ubuntuforums.org. There is also a channel on IRC Freenode #ubuntuforums. | 08:07 |
| witakr | alrighty then, thank bazhang | 08:07 |
| ceil420 | RITN, i don't visit the forums a lot. such an ugly site <_< | 08:07 |
| RITN | are those official? | 08:07 |
| ceil420 | RITN, yes, they are | 08:07 |
| sajuuk | yeah | 08:07 |
| sajuuk | they are good when u have too many people here | 08:07 |
| RITN | heh. anyone ever speak to the creator of ubuntu? | 08:07 |
| bazhang | ceil420: no forums and google then 80% fewer answers here ;] | 08:08 |
| skinnymg1 | can i install aircrack in xubuntu | 08:08 |
| Wolf23 | helpers! anyone | 08:08 |
| Flannel | RITN: sabdfl is a real person, yes. But this is getting offtopic | 08:08 |
| ceil420 | lol bazhang | 08:08 |
| nickrud | RITN there's not just one creator, you can see most of them at the community meetings, google ubuntu community council agenda to see the schedule | 08:08 |

| RITN | backround* | 08:10 |
| sajuuk | so it has a fn key | 08:10 |

| MrJones | Hello | 08:13 |
| Gman99999 | bazbang a file folder with pictures and other stuff, basically trying to salvage anything off of the old hard drive | 08:13 |
| maco | sajuuk: that button on the right next to the windows key | 08:13 |
| sajuuk | is that the windows key? | 08:13 |
| Lapinux | can anyone help me out, after i just upgraded to 8.04 my raid drive is being mounted as "1000.2 GB Media" instead of the name i have specified in fstab | 08:13 |
| maco | sajuuk: the one that shows the right click menu | 08:13 |
| sajuuk | o | 08:13 |
| sajuuk | that | 08:13 |
| bazhang | Gman99999: just a simple copy should do it-->had to do it myself and no problems | 08:13 |
| sajuuk | cool i think i will choose that | 08:13 |
| sajuuk | perhaps not | 08:14 |
| sajuuk | it is still functional on linux | 08:14 |
| sajuuk | i want to choose a dead key, like the windows key | 08:14 |
| Gman99999 | if i right click the folder and choose copy it wont let me, it says i need the proper permissions | 08:14 |
| Aggraxis | is there a generic package i can install to get more desktop appearances and themes than what comes preinstalled? | 08:14 |
| ceil420 | sajuuk, that's why i chose the right windows key for my compose key :p | 08:14 |
| maco | sajuuk: ok you can | 08:14 |
| fdkrew | anyone have metasploit here? | 08:14 |
| MrJones | When I set my sound prefs for USB Audio my sound works and all but my keyboard doesnt allow me to lower or increase the sound although everything else works, I think it has to deal with Default Mixer Tracks | 08:14 |
| sajuuk | ahh | 08:14 |
| sajuuk | i sound like an idiot | 08:14 |
| sajuuk | lol | 08:14 |
| Gman99999 | bazbang if i right click the folder and choose copy it wont let me, it says i need the proper permissions | 08:14 |
| bazhang | Gman99999: right click from within os x or ubuntu? | 08:14 |
| sajuuk | ok chosen it | 08:15 |
| sajuuk | hit close? | 08:15 |
| Gman99999 | bazbang right click within ubuntu | 08:15 |
| === icesword_ is now known as icesword | ||
| maco | sajuuk: sajuuk did you enable the altgr layout? | 08:15 |
| Gman99999 | bazbang maybe i need permissions to paste it in ubuntu? | 08:15 |
| Flannel | !java64 | Fritzel | 08:15 |
| ubotu | Fritzel: You can run Flash, Real, and Java plugins in AMD64 bit computers with Firefox. see the steps to follow at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FirefoxAMD64FlashJava | 08:15 |
| sajuuk | where do i do that? | 08:15 |
| artti | thank you bazhang | 08:15 |
| bazhang | Gman99999: what about from the command line? | 08:15 |
| edwin | i just installed a few new themes but they aren't showing up in the system > preferences > appearance dialog | 08:15 |
| Flannel | Gman99999: use the pastebin | 08:15 |
| artti | thank you bazhang | 08:15 |
| Flannel | Gman99999: Oh, sorry, ignore me. | 08:15 |
| Fritzel | Flannel, there are bugs, my question stands | 08:16 |
| Gman99999 | bazbang i have no idea how to do this via the command line | 08:16 |
| Gman99999 | bazbang Im not sure what the file path would look like | 08:16 |
| MrJones | I know I shouldnt be demanding since this is free support but ive been here for about 2 hours and its a minor problem id really like some help | 08:16 |
| Flannel | Fritzel: They actually changed that factoid. Let me see if I can find the other one. | 08:16 |
| bazhang | Gman99999: cd to the directory you want to cp from and sudo cp from the directory to the one you want it to be in | 08:16 |
| TropicalDude | bazhang; Hi, I ask for help yesterday and your recommendation (get the generic kernel for dual core thing) worked fine. Thank you very much | 08:16 |
| Fritzel | Flannel, alright thank you | 08:17 |
| Flannel | !chroot | Fritzel | 08:17 |
| ubotu | Fritzel: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebootstrapChroot use this to build 32 bit environments on a 64 bit box | 08:17 |
| bazhang | TropicalDude: glad you solved it ;] | 08:17 |
| maco | sajuuk: in the add layout thing | 08:17 |

| ubotu | For Ati/NVidia/Matrox video cards, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto | 08:17 |
| MrJones | When I set my sound prefs for USB Audio my sound works and all but my keyboard doesnt allow me to lower or increase the sound although everything else works, I think it has to deal with Default Mixer Tracks | 08:17 |
| sajuuk | maco: k | 08:17 |
| Flannel | Fritzel: and actually, this page apparently has a method without the chroot: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AMD64/FirefoxAndPlugins | 08:18 |
| sajuuk | in the same window which i was just in? | 08:18 |
| bazhang | MrJones: your kb? what about the alsamixer or just the volume dial on gnome desktop? | 08:18 |
| JDahl | is there a way to have "movieplayer" play subtitles from a DVD? | 08:18 |
| Fritzel | Flannel, excellent that's what I need thank you | 08:18 |
| maco | sajuuk: i honestly havent used "compose key" before, so idk if it requires this. i use the "switch layout" option where it switches to the other layout while i hold down that button. i *think* they work the same...i just set both to be the same key, just in case | 08:18 |
| ceil420 | MrJones, maybe your keyboard needs new drivers | 08:18 |
| bazhang | JDahl: you have the srt file? | 08:18 |
| ceil420 | media keys ftl, anyway (imo) | 08:18 |
| maco | sajuuk: yes | 08:19 |
| JDahl | bazhang, I just inserted an original DVD with subtitles | 08:19 |
| absnt | Reading the man page for grep i can't figure out how I would set certain words and parts of a file to be excluded from a trail command | 08:19 |
| sajuuk | ok so where in that window is that alt-gr thing? | 08:19 |
| Wolf23 | PmDematagoda: hello friend , can u help me with the nvidia driver please? | 08:19 |
| bazhang | JDahl: must it be mplayer? vlc works fine here | 08:19 |
| JDahl | bazhang, I use the default "movieplayer" application (which is Totem, I guess) | 08:19 |
| Arelis | Where has iceconf gone in Hardy? | 08:20 |
| maco | sajuuk: choose us in top drop down and international (altgr) in 2nd | 08:20 |
| Arelis | !info iceconf hardy | 08:20 |
| ubotu | Package iceconf does not exist in hardy | 08:20 |
| JDahl | bazhang, autoplayed when I insert the DVD | 08:20 |
| Arelis | !info iceconf gutsy | 08:20 |
| ceil420 | Arelis, locate iceconf | 08:20 |
| williamliu | Hi | 08:20 |
| ubotu | iceconf (source: iceconf): Configuration tool for icewm. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.99.33-1.3 (gutsy), package size 14 kB, installed size 100 kB | 08:20 |
| bazhang | JDahl: if you have all the codecs that should work; again you may wish to choose another app (such as vlc for example) and give that a try as a comparison | 08:20 |
| Arelis | ceil420: but in Hardy it's gone. in Gutsy it's there. | 08:20 |
| ceil420 | Arelis, huh. did you upgrade or fresh install? | 08:21 |
| ubuntu | a good howto sharing folders between wireless laptop and pc cable form router ? | 08:21 |
| Arelis | ceil420: fresh install | 08:21 |

| bazhang | n-iCe: interface? what do you mean please | 08:22 |
| Gman99999 | bazbang its acting weird it wont let me change to the users directory via the command line, it will only let me in media/macintosh | 08:22 |
| Dr_willis | ubuntu you might want to clarify that a little bit. - for one What OS is each machine using? samba is normally used to create 'shares' btweeen windows and linux machines. | 08:22 |
| sajuuk | ok | 08:22 |
| ceil420 | Arelis, look for the program online, i guess. | 08:22 |

| Gerinych | where do i find adobe flash player for opera? | 08:22 |
| ceil420 | n-iCe, what kind of problem? | 08:22 |
| n-iCe | bazhang I didn't delete I said Im having problem with it, since I upgraded | 08:22 |
| n-iCe | sometimes just don't start | 08:23 |
| ceil420 | Gerinych, www.adobe.com doesn't have one? | 08:23 |
| bazhang | n-iCe: without more info (a lot) no idea how to help | 08:23 |
| maco | sajuuk: yep | 08:23 |
| n-iCe | I need to reboot like 3 times and wait like 20 minutos to join | 08:23 |
| Gerinych | ceil420: it only has for opera | 08:23 |

| Gerinych | ceil420: i mean firefox | 08:23 |
| n-iCe | bazhang is there anyway to restore the default gnome desktop? | 08:23 |
| Gman99999 | bazbang it wont do anything when i type in ls either | 08:23 |

| sajuuk | ok, i have that and the compose key set up | 08:23 |

| bef | hi. i just installed kub 8.04 from ub 7.10, fresh install... my pci wireless was autofound and using native linux driver, i'm not using ndiswrapper (and havent had to with this card for over a year).. its a belkin (ralink) on wlan0, and it's running at about 5kb/s and falling out a lot.. I'm on a good connection and haven't had any problems with Ubuntu with this card, any advice here? | 08:25 |
| Dr_willis | n-iCe, remove the various .gnome* and .gtk* dirs - will reset all gnome/gtk settings ot their defults.. You MIGHT want to just move them to some other directory first. and perhaps create a new user, to see if a newly made user has the same issues. | 08:25 |
| bazhang | n-iCe: you want to completely reinstall all of gnome? | 08:25 |
| grosshans | hi! i noticed one stupid problem with upgrading to 8.04.. firefox 3 beta cannot get to net when i use gprs mobile phone. Opera and other programs use the net immediately | 08:25 |
| justdave | so pulseaudio is running. If I set the gnome sound panel to use OSS, it works, but either Pulse or ALSA just get silence | 08:25 |
| === mey_ is now known as chocolate | ||
| justdave | what's broken in pulse and how do I fix it? | 08:25 |
| === chocolate is now known as cocholate | ||
| maco | sajuuk: now if you press your compose key and shift and " at the same time, nothing should be typed, but if you hit u after that, itll show ü | 08:26 |
| n-iCe | bazhang, Dr_willis : $ cd ~/.gconf/apps | 08:26 |
| n-iCe | $ mv panel panel.old | 08:26 |
| n-iCe | will work? | 08:26 |
| sajuuk | ok let me see | 08:26 |
| yedday | If I have Date in textform of: account[1] \n element[1] value[1] \n element[7] value[7] \n element[5] value[5] \n ... account[2] How could I best parse this into a database? I mean, the element/value pairs are unsorted and not every account has every element(field has to be left blank then) | 08:26 |
| Flannel | yedday: #ubuntu-offtopic would be the place to ask | 08:26 |
| yedday | Flannel: thx | 08:26 |
| Dr_willis | n-iCe, try it and see. you could move all the .gnome* and .gconf* and .gtk* dirs - How do you know its that ONE setting thats causing the problem? | 08:27 |
| n-iCe | I have no idea what's is causing the problem | 08:27 |
| bazhang | n-iCe: is this to do with the debian kernel? or is that issue fixed? | 08:27 |
| sajuuk | hmm | 08:27 |
| sajuuk | its not working to well | 08:28 |
| maco | sajuuk: "not too well" == ? | 08:28 |
| ceil420 | bah | 08:28 |
| n-iCe | bazhang solved... | 08:28 |
| Dr_willis | n-iCe, if you think its some sort of gnome/user setting issue. Make a new user and see if it their account works. | 08:28 |
| sajuuk | if i do it like 10 times i get 2 umlauted os | 08:28 |

| ceil420 | there's also ® (o r) © (o c) æ (a e), etc | 08:31 |
| sajuuk | with shortcuts | 08:31 |
| sajuuk | cos english uses apostrophes | 08:31 |
| ceil420 | oh, i don't know about changed layouts | 08:31 |
| Behnam | blaenk: Well it must be installed before, then you can find it in the menus or in the terminal by typing nvidia-settings | 08:31 |
| sajuuk | and german doesnt | 08:31 |
| alteregoa | whats the command to setup the screens? | 08:31 |
| elbermungsterses | can anyone help me on setting up a wireless WAN connection?? | 08:31 |
| blaenk | Behnam, I found it | 08:31 |
| ceil420 | i just set a key for it in my US layout | 08:31 |
| Lapinux | i had /dev/md0 mounted to /media/storage and it says its still mounted there but it has the disk size as the name instead of the dir name | 08:31 |

| ceil420 | i wish bzip2 had a progress bar :( | 08:32 |
| Flannel | mikubuntu: cups has its own password system, just like samba. The wiki page should (I haven't actually looked at it in a while) explain it. | 08:32 |

| ubotu | mikubuntu: Printing in Ubuntu is done with cups. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Printers - https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsPrinters - http://linuxprinting.org - Printer sharing: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/NetworkPrintingFromWindows | 08:32 |
| n-iCe | Dr_willis how do I create a newuser on the terminal? | 08:32 |
| blaenk | Behnam, working perfectly fine now thanks | 08:32 |
| sajuuk | i will figure out the kb layout later | 08:32 |
| sajuuk | thats awesome tho | 08:32 |
| sajuuk | thx for that | 08:32 |
| sajuuk | next question though | 08:33 |
| mikubuntu | Flannel: i'll look, i don't ever remember setting up a seperate password, tho | 08:33 |

| blaenk | hey what does kubuntu-desktop install, what version of KDE | 08:33 |
| blaenk | 3.5 or 4 | 08:33 |
| maco | sajuuk: i have my keyboard settings set to "switch layout when right alt is pressed" | 08:33 |
| bazhang | 3.5 | 08:33 |
| Flannel | mikubuntu: If you haven't set it, that's probably true, it's probably unset, and you need to set something | 08:33 |
| blaenk | bazhang, positive? okay thanks | 08:33 |
| maco | sajuuk: there's an option to toggle layouts when both alt's are pressed...you might want that | 08:33 |
| MrJones | http://paste.ubuntu.com/8322/ | 08:34 |
| maco | sajuuk: its in the same place as the compose key settings | 08:34 |
| sajuuk | you guys know what i mean when i say a window with XP style moving and resizing, ´x´ button a square button for maximize and another for minimise | 08:34 |
| ceil420 | i use ctrl+space to change languages with SCIM :p | 08:34 |
| maco | sajuuk: the "when right alt is pressed" is "while it held down" | 08:34 |
| ceil420 | 金薫石 | 08:34 |
| blaenk | so kubuntu-desktop installs kde 3.5 not 4 right? cause that's what I want | 08:34 |
| bazhang | blaenk: aye | 08:34 |
| mikubuntu | flannel, somehow i just cleared those links (and all previous msgs on channel) can u have ubotu repeat please | 08:34 |
| blaenk | thanks bazhang | 08:34 |
| maco | sajuuk: er...thatd be normal resizing... | 08:35 |
| ceil420 | bazhang, even in Hardy? | 08:35 |
| Flannel | !cups > mikubuntu | 08:35 |
| sajuuk | yes | 08:35 |
| sajuuk | my linux doesnt want me to do that | 08:35 |
| mikubuntu | thanks | 08:35 |
| bazhang | ceil420: yup ;] | 08:35 |

| BoltClock | hi, my flash player in firefox isnt playing sound (im using adobe's plugin), searching on google gave me many workarounds but i dont know which to trust since im new to linux | 08:35 |
| bazhang | kubuntu-kde4-desktop will get you kde4 blaenk | 08:35 |
| sajuuk | i cant maximise it through normal means except by rightclicking on the bottom | 08:36 |
| ceil420 | BoltClock, are any other applications playing sound? | 08:36 |
| BoltClock | ceil420: everything else is fine | 08:36 |
| unimatrix9 | i have hardy , with nvidia, now when loading the desktop ( gnome ) it blacks out for a second, any one have the same thing on his / her machine? | 08:36 |
| sajuuk | basically i have to hold down shift to move it | 08:36 |
| sajuuk | and i dont know how to resize it in this new way | 08:36 |
| ceil420 | BoltClock, i mean are they playing sound while you try to play sound with flash | 08:36 |
| BoltClock | unimatrix9: same here, but it doesnt seem to affect me | 08:36 |
| sajuuk | its very alien, and i dont like it :( | 08:36 |
| BoltClock | ceil420: yes theyre fine | 08:36 |
| idyllic | unimatrix9: same. but it works though.. so i dun mind | 08:36 |
| tjb0607 | chipmunk won't compile, ithing it is because of CMake. | 08:36 |

| tjb0607 | GOTOBED!!! | 08:37 |
| unimatrix9 | bazhang, have a good rest | 08:37 |
| sajuuk | like i would have IRC split half the screen and have abiword on the other side so i can work | 08:37 |
| ceil420 | BoltClock, by default, only one program can use sound at a time. i forgot exactly how i fixed it, but i know using ALSA (as opposed to OSS) was involved | 08:37 |
| sajuuk | but i cant do that | 08:38 |
| Gerinych | okay, i don't get it | 08:38 |
| BoltClock | ceil420: funny, my music player and pidgin are both fine together... unless its because one plays music while the other plays sounds | 08:38 |
| sajuuk | cos i cant resize it cos there are no borders | 08:38 |
| mikubuntu | flannel, i don't see anything on those pages that says how to set up a cups password. arrrrrrrrggggghhhhhhh. | 08:38 |
| Gerinych | the thing shows up in opera:plugins but it doesn't work on any website | 08:38 |
| sajuuk | like one would have in dapper or XP | 08:38 |
| ceil420 | BoltClock, maybe | 08:38 |
| idyllic | erm, anyone can get flash working in opera in hardy? | 08:38 |
| maco | sajuuk: you have no window borders? | 08:38 |
| sajuuk | yes | 08:38 |
| sajuuk | no borders | 08:38 |
| nguyenphat | 22 | 08:38 |
| BoltClock | ceil420: but it -is- possible to allow more than one to use sound right? | 08:39 |
| maco | sajuuk: ok see, thats the problem. resize isnt the problem. | 08:39 |
| sajuuk | they the same borders that allow me to resize? | 08:39 |
| ceil420 | idyllic, apparently Gerinych can't :x i don't use Opera, myself | 08:39 |

| ceil420 | BoltClock, they're just different audio controllers. Advanced Linux Sound Architecture and Open Source Sound (probably; i'm guessing on the OSS). i'm not sure what exactly the differences between them are | 08:40 |

| tjb0607 | lalalalalalalala | 08:41 |
| n-iCe | is there anyway to reinstall 8.04 without delete files, etc? | 08:41 |
| BoltClock | ceil420: perhaps wikipedia can help | 08:41 |
| tjb0607 | BAN ME! | 08:41 |
| ceil420 | BoltClock, sounds like a plan :) | 08:41 |
| XceII | shutup tkbeat | 08:41 |
| mikubuntu | flannel, yes, that is what i am trying to do is set up a printer... when i get to the last step (add driver) it asks for my 'password on localhost' and i can't get past that | 08:41 |
| todd | so who wants to spend a few mins helping me get compiz setup? | 08:41 |
| HermanChess | can you install ubuntu using an ipod? | 08:41 |
| tjb0607 | GOTOBED!!!!!!!!!!!!! | 08:41 |
| XceII | tjb0607: | 08:41 |
| kane77 | BoltClock, do you have separate /home partition? | 08:42 |
| sajuuk | lol, herman that is a very interesting idea | 08:42 |
| BoltClock | kane77: huh? | 08:42 |
| tjb0607 | sorry i just have mental issues :D | 08:42 |
| Gerinych | idyllic, i may have found the solution: http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?t=18570 | 08:42 |
| BoltClock | ceil420: my volume control tells me its ALSA... | 08:42 |
| HermanChess | sajuuk: yeah, some friend is asking me that | 08:42 |
| kane77 | BoltClock, whoops.. wrong person :) | 08:42 |
| sajuuk | i would use the ipod to store stuff | 08:42 |
| BoltClock | kane77: :P | 08:42 |
| PmDematagoda | Wolf23, please give the error | 08:42 |
| sajuuk | im gonna back up stuff onto my 160 gb one | 08:42 |
| tjb0607 | sALSA and chips! | 08:42 |
| sajuuk | and then reformat my xp machine | 08:43 |
| idyllic | Gerinych: thanks. I will test it up | 08:43 |
| kane77 | n-iCe, so you have separate /home partition? | 08:43 |
| ceil420 | BoltClock, see if the individual apps are using ALSA. my volume control said ALSA as well, but Audacious was using OSS :x | 08:43 |
| Gerinych | tell me if it works | 08:43 |
| BoltClock | ceil420: how do i check? | 08:43 |
| PmDematagoda | Wolf23, please give the error here | 08:43 |
| sajuuk | but, tbh, i dont think BIOS would be able to sift through the apple OS on the Ipod to boot whatever is on the ipod | 08:43 |
| XceII | ceil420: shaddap already. | 08:43 |
| * ceil420 slaps XceII around for a bit with a perl script | 08:44 | |
| BoltClock | ceil420: OSS stands for Open Sound System, apparently | 08:44 |
| XceII | lol | 08:44 |
| n-iCe | /whois | 08:44 |
| sajuuk | good luck to you though :) | 08:44 |
| Wolf23 | You do not appear to be using the NVIDIA X driver. Please edit your X configuration file (just run `nvidia-xconfig` as root), and restart the X server | 08:44 |
| n-iCe | kane77 no idea I used the default installation | 08:44 |
| PmDematagoda | Wolf23, do as the error suggests | 08:44 |
| PmDematagoda | Wolf23, run sudo nvidia-xconfig | 08:44 |
| sajuuk | if u manage to do it herman, I will demand a howto on ubuntuforums | 08:44 |
| ceil420 | BoltClock, i only knew it for audacious, which apparently got broken when i failed to upgrade to Hardy >< | 08:44 |
| mikebot | Does anyone know why when I right-click and press `re-index' on tracker, it just disappears? | 08:44 |
| XceII | ceil420: is a wanna be HaX0rZ, shaddup. k? | 08:44 |
| jan____s | ernet.org | 08:44 |
| ceil420 | BoltClock, you'll have to poke around in various programs' options :x | 08:45 |
| sajuuk | oh another question | 08:45 |
| BoltClock | ceil420: bah | 08:45 |
| pwang | please, can someone help me set up a Wireless WAN connection? | 08:45 |
| big-g | does anyone use vlc player? | 08:45 |
| sajuuk | 3 questions today, my word thats alot | 08:45 |
| Flannel | mikubuntu: https://help.ubuntu.com/7.10/server/C/cups.html and also, are you in lpadmin group? | 08:45 |
| ceil420 | XceII, you're the one using lame leet speak | 08:45 |
| ceil420 | hmm | 08:45 |
| kane77 | n-iCe, then I guess you would have to backup your data and then reinstall... if you do make sure you set up separate partition for your /home reinstalling would be so much easier | 08:45 |
| sajuuk | I want to make an interactive background and stuff, where do i start? | 08:45 |
| ceil420 | what does black text with a dark grey background indicate in ls? | 08:45 |
| ceil420 | (incidentally, the file in question is a theme called "Neutronium DeepBlack" :p) | 08:46 |
| XceII | hws that? | 08:46 |
| Dr_willis | ceil420, do a ls -l and look at the details for the file. could be almost anytying. :) | 08:46 |
| ceil420 | 'file' command only tells me it's a directory | 08:46 |
| ceil420 | lol | 08:46 |
| Dr_willis | ceil420, dont rely on colors. - sounds to me like its saying its a directory then. :) | 08:46 |
| Lapinux | can anyone tell me why when i mount a device in /media/storage its called 1000.2 GB Media instead of storage like it was before the upgrade to 8.04? | 08:46 |
| ceil420 | it's chmod'd 777 for some reason | 08:46 |
| XceII | yes ceil420 (Master) | 08:47 |
| artti | I installed ubuntu-restricted-extras, but still i can't play mp3's with rhythmbox or with listen. | 08:47 |
| idyllic | <Gerinych>: <3 | 08:47 |
| Dr_willis | ceil420, if its dfferent from other dirs.. thats interesting that ls flags it that way. Ive never noticed it doing that. | 08:47 |
| Flannel | mikubuntu: actually, this one: http://ubuntu.wordpress.com/2005/10/13/enabling-cupsys-web-admin-interface/ | 08:47 |
| ceil420 | Lapinux, maybe you have to reset it's label in fstab | 08:47 |
| idyllic | Gerinych: mere words can't describe the joy and my gratitude for your help | 08:47 |
| Lapinux | ceil420: how do i go about doing that, the info i had is still in fstab | 08:47 |
| pwang | why is everybody ignoring me?? | 08:48 |
| mikubuntu | flannel, i found this on google, http://localhost:631/ paste into browser takes to cups admin | 08:48 |
| ceil420 | Dr_willis, i have no idea why it's 777all the others are 655 | 08:48 |
| ceil420 | erm, 755* | 08:48 |
| Gerinych | idyllic, O_o | 08:48 |
| ceil420 | Lapinux, i don't know, i don't use labels | 08:48 |
| Gerinych | idyllic, you got it to work? | 08:48 |
| idyllic | Gerinych: it works =D | 08:48 |
| XceII | hay Dr willis: tll that goompa what time of day it is,K? | 08:48 |
| Gerinych | HOW | 08:48 |
| Flannel | pwang: Usually its best to ask better questions. What specifically are you having a problem with? Do you just not know where to get started? Are you stuck on a particular thing? | 08:48 |
| ceil420 | du -sh | 08:48 |
| ceil420 | ... | 08:48 |
| Dr_willis | XceII, i got 4 am here.. almost... | 08:48 |
| XceII | k | 08:49 |
| idyllic | Geriych: i download the .pup file, untar it... copy flashplayer.xpt and libflashplayer.so to /usr/lib/opera/plugins/ | 08:49 |
| iSplicer | Hey guys, I am new to linux, is there a guide explaining all about partitioning in Linux? I am confused about sda, etc | 08:49 |
| Gerinych | ohhh | 08:49 |
| sajuuk | go through the guided installation isplicer | 08:49 |
| Gerinych | i did it the wrong way then | 08:49 |
| idyllic | Gerinych: go to the advance preference in opera, select the corresponding plugins (not the flash-nonfree) one | 08:49 |
| Gerinych | thanks | 08:49 |
| Lapinux | ceil420: im not sure what you mean by labels, i have /dev/md0 /media/storage in fstab, and under computer:/// it called the drive "storage" because of the dir it was mounted to | 08:49 |
| pwang | Flannel, I'm new to ubuntu and i need o set up a wireless WAN connection. | 08:49 |
| sajuuk | anyway | 08:49 |
| sajuuk | im off | 08:50 |
| ceil420 | is there a way to make screen follow proper bash-in-xterm behaviour? example: scrolling with mouse cycles previous commands in screen; it actually scrolls the window in bash | 08:50 |
| sajuuk | my mind is at ease, good day to all | 08:50 |
| Gerinych | wait how do you open pup files | 08:50 |
| Lapinux | ceil420: now its placing a link in computer:/// and my desktop using the drives size as the name | 08:50 |
| XceII | man: my compiz fkn RoX0rZ, tx canonical . | 08:50 |
| ceil420 | Lapinux, oh. i don't know :x | 08:50 |
| idyllic | Gerinych: use file-roller, double click on it. | 08:50 |
| iSplicer | sajuuk: I am not confused about installation, I want to learn all about disks and partitioning in Linux. Is there a link/ guide to explain this? | 08:50 |
| Gerinych | oh | 08:50 |
| ceil420 | Canonical didn't develop compiz | 08:50 |
| Flannel | iSplicer: each disk (physical) is given a separate letter (sda, sdb, sdc, etc) then each partition on those drives is given a letter (sda1, sda2, etc). sd means sata (IDE drives are mapped to sata drives) | 08:50 |
| Fa | compiz is a waste of time really | 08:51 |
| Lapinux | ceil420: ok, its just driving me nuts | 08:51 |
| XceII | shut up already ceil420 | 08:51 |
| XceII | doofas | 08:51 |
| iSplicer | Flannel, thanks so much! | 08:51 |
| iSplicer | I was confused about there being no C:, D:, etc | 08:51 |
| ceil420 | XceII, i'm gonna laugh when you're banned for the constant pestering of me being off-topic for the channel | 08:51 |
| todd | http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZxfSwzhSn1c&fmt=18 I'm trying to accomplish this to start my linux learning. Anyone interested in walking me through it? | 08:51 |
| XceII | vei; enjoy it | 08:52 |
| Copie | iSplicer, if you only have one hard drive in your system then sda1 will be your C: | 08:52 |
| Assid | Copie: err.. not exactly | 08:52 |
| XceII | ceil420: ur the troll, knock it off already. | 08:52 |
| Flannel | iSplicer: right, since we do the whole mountpoint thing, giving them letters like that just doesn't make sense, so we just describe them (when we care about them actually being physical) as locations. But once we abstract our way away, everything is transparent (partitions just mount somewhere in the filesystem, and we forget that they're there) | 08:52 |
| Assid | iSplicer: i strongly recommend you read up on the unix directory structure | 08:53 |
| Copie | 99 times out of 100 though heh | 08:53 |
| Dr_willis | You can have a D: and no C: :) | 08:53 |
| iSplicer | theres something wierd though... My FILES partition skips to sda5! shouldnt it be sda3? | 08:53 |
| Assid | iSplicer: shouldnt take you more than 10 mins for a brief introduction to it | 08:53 |
| kajka | hi i'm new to linux and i have problems witch instalation ekg2. can somebody help me...? | 08:53 |
| Dr_willis | i had a weird windows setup/install where the darn media reader took up C: through K: | 08:53 |
| iSplicer | sda1 - windows, sda2 - ubuntu sda3 - files? | 08:53 |
| Flannel | iSplicer: Thats because its on a logical partition | 08:53 |
| XceII | Im out Folks. ./ignore ceil420 | 08:53 |
| iSplicer | ohhh... | 08:53 |
| iSplicer | so if its logical, it skips to sda5... right? | 08:53 |
| iSplicer | i heard there can be only 4 primary partitions | 08:54 |
| Flannel | iSplicer: logical ones automatically jump to 5 (so you can still remove the first few primary ones and reformat them, and 5 will still be 5) | 08:54 |
| Dr_willis | iSplicer, the swap partition will be in there somewhere also | 08:54 |
| douma | i want to remove a program from wine | 08:54 |
| iSplicer | okay | 08:54 |
| Dr_willis | iSplicer, correct - 4 primaries max. one of more of those can be extended, that hold logical partitions | 08:54 |
| Assid | iSplicer: yes.. logical however is growable | 08:54 |
| Assid | iSplicer: i personally recommend logical partitions | 08:54 |
| iSplicer | I havent specified a swap partition - I have 2GB of RAM, my friend told me I dont need swap... is that right? | 08:55 |
| Flannel | iSplicer: that's correct. 3 + extended or 4 primaries | 08:55 |
| iSplicer | OK, thanks for help guys, the community support for linux has been great | 08:56 |
| iSplicer | I will take some time off to reflect on the knowledge that I have gained =) | 08:56 |
| iSplicer | thanks again | 08:56 |
| Dr_willis | iSplicer, i always make a 512mb swap. If you want to use suspend/hibernate - you wll want more = ram size | 08:56 |
| Assid | yeah.. generally 1gb is sufficient tho | 08:57 |
| BoltClock | my flash player in firefox isnt playing sound (im using adobe's plugin), searching on google gave me many workarounds but i dont know which to trust since im new to linux | 08:58 |
| gear | is there a way to reduce the memory hoginess of gnome on hardy? | 08:58 |
| HermanChess | BoltClock: don't be afraid to experiment | 08:59 |
| BoltClock | HermanChess: experiment? | 08:59 |
| HermanChess | BoltClock: with the different workarounds | 08:59 |
| BoltClock | HermanChess: well im just afraid itll mess up my installation, but i think ill give them a whirl | 08:59 |
| HermanChess | BoltClock: It's difficult to mess your installation | 09:00 |
| mikubuntu | flannel, this must be a bug, cause on the CUPS page @ http://localhost:631/ is says: If you are asked for a username and password, enter your login username and password or the "root" username and password, BUT, it ABSOLUTELY will not accept my fully priveleged username and password. something must have been lost in the translation from gutsy to hardy.... arrrrrrrrrrrrrrgggggghhhhhhhhhh.... | 09:01 |
| brainsail | xubuntu 8.04 has been installing for 12 hours now, it does not react to keyboard and mouse, but the cdrom drive is working (seek and data transfer), this is an old laptop but older versions did not take so long | 09:02 |
| Flannel | mikubuntu: Have you tried the last link I gave you? | 09:02 |
| simplexio | brainsail: sounds like something is broken | 09:02 |
| brainsail | the CD is ok | 09:02 |
| mikubuntu | flannel, ya, but its basically the same thing, far as i can tell | 09:03 |
| Flannel | mikubuntu: alright, well, I dont know. | 09:03 |
| === tushar is now known as tneupaney | ||
| Flannel | mikubuntu: Definately check LP for a bug about it, since that could very well be. | 09:03 |
| BHSPitLappy | brainsail, since it seems to be operating, I'd guess that it's just a really poor drive (but that the install is working) | 09:04 |
| BHSPitLappy | brainsail, next time, maybe install from USB ;) | 09:04 |
| aoeuid | anyone have any idea how to get scim working with qt4 apps like skype? :) | 09:04 |
| idyllic | hi anyone can help me recover the log for crash? My hardy crashed like no tomorrow since yesterday. In my /var/log/messages, the entry at crash timestamp are --------------MARK------------- | 09:05 |
| Assid | i want a LIVE USB disc | 09:05 |
| Assid | :P | 09:05 |

| queno | Just did a fresh install of Hardy. I don't get my laptop to wake up from s3 sleep. I had to remove uvcvideo only to get it to s3. But now screen stays black and only forced restart helps. Any help? | 09:06 |
| BHSPitLappy | brainsail, network, perhaps? | 09:06 |
| BoltClock | ceil420: both my music and video players can play at the same time without any problems | 09:06 |
| Assid | anyone know how to make this? | 09:06 |
| BoltClock | ceil420: i think its an issue with flash | 09:06 |
| douma | hi i need a program to watch movies with subtitles | 09:06 |
| Radtoo^laptop | douma: like every movie player can do that | 09:06 |
| Radtoo^laptop | douma: mplayer / xine / vlc / ... | 09:07 |

| idyllic | hi anyone can help me recover the log for crash? My hardy crashed like no tomorrow since yesterday. In my /var/log/messages, the entry at crash timestamp are ---MARK--- | 09:07 |
| BoltClock | ceil420: ill try the workarounds that google finds | 09:07 |
| BHSPitLappy | Doesn't totem support subtitles? | 09:07 |
| Radtoo^laptop | BHSPitLappy: I'm sure it does too. | 09:07 |
| artti | Need help getting mp3 to play. | 09:07 |

| ceil420 | BoltClock, hope you get it working o/ | 09:07 |
| BoltClock | Assid: hey | 09:08 |
| BoltClock | Assid: right now adobe flash player isnt playing sound while all other programs can | 09:08 |
| lut4rp | does upgrading via the alternate cd require a net connection? | 09:08 |
| Assid | BoltClock: strange.. 64 bit ? | 09:08 |

| fayetteson | is there a way to revert back to 7.10 from 8.04 | 09:09 |
| === mbah is now known as d0ny | ||
| idyllic | BoltClock: libflashsupport, open your synaptic and search for it | 09:09 |
| idyllic | hi anyone can help me recover the log for crash? My hardy crashed like no tomorrow since yesterday. In my /var/log/messages, the entry at crash timestamp are ---MARK--- | 09:09 |
| queno | btw, there is no error-message in any of the logfiles. The laptop just notices that it goes to s3 and the next thing it takes note of is the cold restart. | 09:09 |
| BHSPitLappy | fayetteson, I'm not sure that it's possible without some real breakage... Unfortunately, I may need to do that myself. | 09:10 |
| sorcerer | i'm running 7.10 with an nvidia geforce 6150 grapics card, and everytime i enable the nvidia-glx-new driver to be able to have desktop effects, it reboots then is shut back off again and keeps doing so any ideas how to get desktop effects working? | 09:10 |
| alteregoa | sorcerer, get envy | 09:10 |
| fayetteson | 7.10 was working fine for me upgraded to 8.04 and can't even get to my desktop from login . | 09:10 |
| fayetteson | can't get to desktop at all actually | 09:11 |
| sorcerer | ty alteregoa | 09:11 |
| BoltClock | idyllic: ok, ive just installed libflashsupport, will just restarting firefox do? | 09:11 |
| BHSPitLappy | fayetteson, maybe you could explain the problem, so that we can help get it resolved? | 09:11 |
| idyllic | BoltClock: try =) i didn't remember whether i rebooted last time or not.. | 09:12 |
| fayetteson | i havent been using linux for long so bare wth me while i try to explain thanks | 09:12 |
| BHSPitLappy | fayetteson, as long as you explain what's happening in detail, we can probably figure out what's not working right :) | 09:12 |

| chell | hey guys I need your help | 09:13 |
| fayetteson | i was using 7.10 upgraded to 8.04 over the net install finished rebooted , graphical logn came up as usual entered in login , then stuck on tan background nothin else | 09:13 |
| chell | I've got a USB headset attached to my Ubuntu Hardy box | 09:13 |
| BoltClock | idyllic: it worked! | 09:13 |
| chell | in audacity I've got the ALSA device for that headset selected and everything works | 09:13 |
| idyllic | BoltClock : :D | 09:13 |

| chell | the former gives an error | 09:14 |
| chell | and the latter just won't work | 09:14 |
| idyllic | haiz, but noone can help me with my current crashes on hardy | 09:14 |
| unop | idyllic, what do you mean by 'crash' exactly? does the system fail and you have to do a hard reboot? | 09:14 |
| BHSPitLappy | fayetteson, ah, I've been there a number of times; There's quite a good deal of posts on that issue ("Brown screen of death") on the forums as well | 09:14 |
| BoltClock | idyllic: :/ | 09:14 |
| fayetteson | ok cool | 09:14 |
| BoltClock | ceil420: well, it worked, flash is making sound again | 09:14 |
| idyllic | unop: hard reboot all the time. | 09:14 |
| BHSPitLappy | fayetteson, I'll see if I can remember how I've gotten out... | 09:14 |
| big-g | hello, can anyone help mw with dual view monitor? | 09:14 |
| ceil420 | BoltClock, what'd you do? | 09:15 |
| fayetteson | now that i know it is called the brown screen of death i can n ow research it on the forums thanks | 09:15 |
| alteregoa | yeah dualview... | 09:15 |
| BoltClock | ceil420: idyllic told me to install libflashsupport | 09:15 |
| ceil420 | ah | 09:15 |
| BHSPitLappy | fayetteson, it often has to do with a buggy nvidia driver | 09:15 |
| unop | idyllic, have a look in /var/log/{kern.log,dmesg,syslog,debug} | 09:15 |
| ceil420 | didn't know there was such a lib :p | 09:15 |
| BoltClock | ceil420: well now you do... | 09:15 |
| idyllic | unop: there is none inside at that time stamp | 09:15 |

| conb123 | hi anybody know how i can enable compiz in 8.04 without enabling the restricted driver its just the restricted driver manager screwed up my audio so i used envy instead | 09:15 |
| ceil420 | BoltClock, and thanks for passin' it along should i have trouble in the future :p | 09:16 |
| big-g | i am using nvidia and i want my desktop on my lcd and my movies on my crt. i set up seperate displays in my xorg.conf. how can i switch between the 2? | 09:16 |
| idyllic | unop: i think becos of hard reboot, no trace is recorded | 09:16 |
| ceil420 | BoltClock, i don't know how i got it working before, but i know it wasn't as easy as installing a lib :x | 09:16 |
| big-g | setup 2 diff. displays in xorg.conf i mean | 09:16 |
| big-g | blah...i meant i already sat up 2 diff. displays in xorg.conf | 09:16 |
| unop | idyllic, i don't believe times are recorded in those files .. so it's hard to tell at which time an even occured | 09:16 |
| BoltClock | ceil420: :) | 09:16 |
| fayetteson | BHSpitLappy don;t have a nvidia graphics card though it is an integrated intel | 09:16 |
| BHSPitLappy | big-g, rather than editing xorg.conf by hand, have you tried using the Screens administration tool? | 09:17 |
| idyllic | unop: how about i post my log on pastebin? | 09:17 |

| big-g | i guess my first question is....i heard of a command where you can switch displays. does anyone know it? | 09:17 |
| BHSPitLappy | big-g, it's difficult to support anything other than the intended way of doing things in a channel like this (e.g., the Ubuntu way) | 09:18 |
| idyllic | unop: all the logs? or just messages, kernel and xorg? | 09:18 |
| big-g | that's cool. i thought i would try | 09:18 |
| Cew27 | i need help pidgin wont let me sign in on any account it says error with username or pass | 09:18 |
| BHSPitLappy | big-g, if you're going to use Ubuntu, learn to be friends with the GUI ;) | 09:19 |

| BHSPitLappy | Cew27, I don't there to be any problems with Ubuntu's version of Pidgin, so perhaps you may receive better assistance in the Pidgin support channel (#pidgin) | 09:22 |

| Dr_willis | [DS]DragonSlayer, You may want to check the forums for info on your exact sound card, and that issue. what are you using as a 5.1 source anyway? | 09:29 |

| BlackEagl | I have Mobility Radeon M6 LY so fglrx doesn't work. | 09:31 |
| [DS]DragonSlayer | Dr_willis - i search the whole forum today, i did some of the codes, but my sound is still 2 channel | 09:31 |
| conb123 | xceII: i cant just fix it like that who do you think i am give me a more detailed analysis of the problem what is wrong with the sound | 09:31 |

| BHSPitLappy | conb123, I really can't imagine how the Restricted driver could be interfering with your audio | 09:35 |
| Assid | Dr_willis: i dont think mp3 can do 5.1 | 09:35 |
| Dr_willis | Assid, I think thats the whole point that the guy was missing.. hes expecting his stero sounds to some how get translated to 5.1 | 09:35 |
| insmod | <Surger>: edit the driver section in xorg | 09:35 |
| * mikubuntu wonders why the printer config page says that the printer is enabled, accepting jobs, and shared, but will not print. | 09:36 | |

| Surger | I have an old system with an S3 Trio card in it and all I get when Xorg loads is a blank screen. I had to use the alternate CD and do a text install but it never prompted me for the video drivers. | 09:36 |
| DK-Jr | nothing | 09:36 |
| conb123 | BHSPitLappy: Well it does you'll have totrust me on that one so my problem is can i enable compiz without enabling the restricted driver | 09:36 |
| Assid | Dr_willis: well if you have a decoder- you can set it to dolby and will OUTPUT as 5.1 | 09:36 |
| Enquest | I got a dual core 6400 intel do I need to download the 64bit or the standard version? | 09:36 |

| Carbonflux | I exchanged my hub for a switch on my lan and now have a full gigabit lan, But my Ubuntu machine still seems to be running at 100mb, it did detect full duplex at least, I am wondering if I can use ethtool to just set the speed to 1000 and see if it works ? | 09:36 |
| Dr_willis | Assid, thats basicially faking it by cloning :) which is what i told him. heh. | 09:36 |

| Surger | insmod: I did - I changed S3 to vesa but it still doesn't work. | 09:36 |
| elmargol | Enquest, use 32bit | 09:37 |

| BHSPitLappy | XceII, okay, but try not to impede the support discussion going on in here. Chit-chat in #ubuntu-offtopic if you must. | 09:37 |
| Carbonflux | unop, well the hardware does yes, all machines and the switch | 09:37 |
| Enquest | Assid, I'm a webdeveloper, so I need flash | 09:37 |
| XceII | ok | 09:37 |
| Enquest | gnash should work under 64 bit | 09:37 |
| Assid | Enquest: well, i think wine has an issue. - but im not sure on that | 09:37 |
| Assid | Enquest: yeah.. you can use swfdec too | 09:38 |
| insmod | <Surger>: is X installed | 09:38 |
| unop | Carbonflux, well, technically ethtool should be able to set the speed, but again, the driver of the NIC should support that | 09:38 |
| BHSPitLappy | conb123, as long as you can get a hardware-accelerated driver working, you should be able to run compiz... | 09:38 |
| Enquest | Assid but I will lose less time with the 32 bit | 09:38 |
| XceII | :'( | 09:38 |

| Assid | Enquest: loose less time ? | 09:38 |
| Enquest | ? | 09:38 |
| Enquest | yes with certain little things in the 64 bit | 09:39 |
| BHSPitLappy | Enquest, flash is supposed to work correctly, even on 64-bit. | 09:39 |
| afancy | cannot find the package macchanger? | 09:39 |
| Carbonflux | unop, that was not the case when I installed Ubuntu initially installed Ubuntu, I have seen people suggesting it on the fourms but it seemed "weird," thanks for the response, I do wonder why the driver is not detecting it | 09:39 |
| proxy0 | afancy: maybe that package doesnt exist, did you do 'sudo update' | 09:39 |
| Assid | Enquest: 32bit is much more tried and tested - yes | 09:39 |
| BHSPitLappy | Enquest, if you find it to have a problem, then you've found a bug | 09:39 |
| conb123 | BHSPitLappy: I have dont start telling me off for this but i used envy it was my only option the looping bon gos were driving me mad | 09:39 |

| Flannel | mkquist: you need the alternate CD | 09:44 |

| mkquist | BHSPitLappy: well it does, but it appears to be downloading it again... | 09:44 |
| ruif13 | i've problem in upgrade of my xubuntu | 09:44 |
| bcnaat | leeyee: when you inserted the cd, did ubuntu ask if you wanted to upgrade from the cd or did you have to mount it to use it for the upgrade? | 09:45 |
| mkquist | Flannel: so it wont upgrade from the desktop version? | 09:45 |
| BHSPitLappy | mkquist, it downloads updates since the CD was packaged | 09:45 |
| ruif13 | apears error in slapd anyone can help? | 09:45 |
| unop | pakoz2, no pms please | 09:45 |
| mkquist | BHSPitLappy: i just d/l the cd tonight | 09:45 |
| BHSPitLappy | Flannel, really? | 09:45 |
| Flannel | mkquist: no. Desktop just gives you the option of installation. | 09:45 |
| Surger | insmod: I came right. 16bpp .... old card. :) | 09:45 |
| Gnontghol | ruif13: details pleese | 09:45 |
| Flannel | BHSPitLappy: Of course. Desktop is all caspered up, there aren't any packages on it | 09:45 |
| BHSPitLappy | mkquist, the CD was produced on Thursday, when Hardy was released | 09:45 |
| pawan | o install nvidia geforce fx 5200 card drivers | 09:45 |
| Saint`Dia | When i did the update to the newest ubuntu, it has stopped reconizing my wireless card. I have ndiswrapper with the driver loaded. What do I have to do to get it to show in iwconfig? | 09:45 |
| leeyee | bcnaat: I didn't burn CD, I upgraded from 7.04 to 7.10 in the same way, it worked very well | 09:46 |
| mkquist | BHSPitLappy: so will it d/l just the diffence or what? if you dont mind... | 09:46 |
| DK-Jr | unop, still goes to internet could i ad my local workgroup as search item? | 09:46 |
| BHSPitLappy | mkquist, apparently I don't know :) | 09:46 |
| Cts35 | hi all | 09:46 |
| BoltClock | Flannel: make it readable using chmod? | 09:46 |
| BoltClock | Starnestommy: hold on... | 09:46 |
| crash91 | I recently installed a few applications- they refuse to start up, what could be the problem | 09:46 |
| mkquist | Flannel: so i have to d/l the alternate to get it to upgrade from the cd? is that true? | 09:46 |
| unop | perlmonkey, do you mean, when you open up a terminal ~/.bash_profile is ignored? or do you login using a shell rather than a display manager? | 09:46 |
| pakoz2 | I just tried to play a 1080p xvid with 5.1 flac, i just realized i'm not outputting 5.1 atm. I need some help fixing this. | 09:46 |
| pakoz2 | Anyone know where to start? | 09:46 |
| Dr_willis | mkquist, i was thinking the dvd versions had both on it. but im not sure on that. | 09:46 |
| insmod | <Surger>: :) | 09:47 |
| unop | DK-Jr, i'm afriad the only thing you can do is force resolution using the hosts file | 09:47 |
| Flannel | mkquist: yes | 09:47 |
| mkquist | Dr_willis: i d/l the cd version | 09:47 |
| Flannel | mkquist, Dr_willis, the DVD version does, yes. | 09:47 |
| Gnontghol | pakoz2: the mixer | 09:47 |
| CodeImp | hi | 09:47 |
| Danish989 | Hi all | 09:47 |
| icesword | !info kde-i18n-zh | 09:47 |
| ubotu | Package kde-i18n-zh does not exist in hardy | 09:47 |
| BHSPitLappy | pakoz2, I bet that takes up a lot of disk space, eh? | 09:47 |
| DK-Jr | i never had to do this before this only started since 8.04 | 09:47 |
| Dr_willis | mkquist, then you wanted the alt-installer cd. to upgrade with. Not the desktop cd. | 09:47 |
| lambengolmor | hi everyone... simple question: how do i close the Xserver on Hardy? | 09:47 |
| mkquist | Flannel: t/y... sigh i guess ill have to redownlosd it | 09:47 |
| Danish989 | quick question: how long does it take on average to install KDE in ubuntu? | 09:47 |
| Cts35 | can anyone tell me how to join chris pirillo channel from a regular irc client | 09:47 |
| mkquist | *download | 09:47 |
| pakoz2 | its about 25gb | 09:47 |
| Cts35 | plz | 09:48 |
| Dr_willis | Cts35, /join #Channelname | 09:48 |
| El1 | labengelmor: sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop | 09:48 |
| Danish989 | cts35: do you know the address of the channel? | 09:48 |
| Flannel | Danish989: Depends on your connection speed, but once you've downloaded, not much (but again, depends on your processor/HDD speed) | 09:48 |
| Gnontghol | Cts35: /join #<chanel> | 09:48 |
| BHSPitLappy | pakoz2, *does a spit take* | 09:48 |
| unop | lambengolmor, sudo /etc/init.d/?dm stop | 09:48 |
| insmod | <Danish989> a few minutes | 09:48 |
| Danish989 | flannel: do you know the filesize of kde? or how long it will take to download at say, 30kbps? | 09:48 |
| lambengolmor | thks very much! | 09:48 |
| Fa | omg at 30 | 09:49 |
| BHSPitLappy | Chris Pirillo? Is he still around? | 09:49 |
| El1 | np lambengolmor :-) | 09:49 |
| Cts35 | o ya lol | 09:49 |
| perlmonkey | unop: it seems when i open a terminal ~/.bash_profile is ignored | 09:49 |
| Dr_willis | Danish989, use apt-get isntll kubuntu-desktop , and it will sumarize the size it has to download. you can cancle if you wan tto. | 09:49 |
| El1 | Is there anyone else here with the nvidia driver lowres problem in hardy? | 09:49 |
| Danish989 | thanks dr_willis | 09:49 |
| Dr_willis | perlmonkey, .bash_profile is only parsed by 'login' shells - I belive. | 09:49 |
| BHSPitLappy | perlmonkey, possibly because Ubuntu doesn't use bash as a default shell? :) | 09:49 |
| unop | perlmonkey, well, thats right, ~/.bash_profile is only used in a login shell | 09:49 |
| Cts35 | im on ma ipodtouch rite now lol | 09:49 |
| unop | BHSPitLappy, err no, bash is the default | 09:50 |
| BoltClock | Flannel: how do i make it readable by www-data? | 09:50 |
| magnetron | !lowres | El1 | 09:50 |
| ubotu | Sorry, I don't know anything about lowres - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi | 09:50 |
| Dr_willis | bash is the default 'user' shell. Not the default 'system' shell. | 09:50 |
| Swiftfoxer | BHSPitLappy, I found this http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-newbie-8/sound-not-working-in-debian.-635690/. Know any way I can attempt this ?I tried sudo alsaconf in a terminal, but it says theres no such command | 09:50 |

| BHSPitLappy | unop, my information is sorely outdated :( | 09:50 |
| ruif13 | where can i paste my full error to help me? | 09:50 |
| BHSPitLappy | My mistake | 09:50 |
| Danish989 | does anyone know a better supported hardware list for laptops, then the official ubuntu wiki list? | 09:50 |
| pakoz2 | Gnontghol* | 09:50 |
| perlmonkey | unop: I think I solved it | 09:50 |
| Cts35 | but ya i couldnt join chris pirillo channel | 09:50 |
| Flannel | Danish989: Unfortunately I don't, no. If you do this, it'll tell you though: sudo apt-get -s install kubuntu-desktop | 09:50 |
| Starnestommy | ruif13: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org | 09:50 |
| Lifeisfunny | http://pastebin.ca | 09:50 |
| Danish989 | flannel: thanks :) | 09:50 |
| unop | perlmonkey, if you want ~/.bash_profile to be sourced, you can add a line in ~/.bashrc. source ~/.bash_profile - but i'd recommend against it | 09:50 |
| El1 | that doesn't fix it magnetron, but I fixed it another way, problem is when I reboot it's back in lowres, how do I stop ubuntu from editing my xorg.conf file? | 09:50 |
| XceII | ceil420: liar. | 09:50 |
| unop | perlmonkey, what did you do? | 09:50 |
| Flannel | Danish989: hmm, no... that doesn't tell you. How strange. I guess simulating doesn't tell you how much it'll take to download/install. | 09:51 |
| mkquist | Flannel: ty, it does appear try after rechecking their site... thanks again... | 09:51 |

| El1 | Is there anyone who know how to make my new gfx settings stick so they don't get edited on reboot? | 09:52 |

| Danish989 | does ubuntu 8.04 now automatically mount ntfs hdds? I tried mandriva and knoppix, and they both mount them in the live cd, but gutsy gibbons didnt automatically mount my drives ... has this been fixed in hardy heron? | 09:53 |
| BHSPitLappy | !offtopic | Cts35 | 09:53 |
| ubotu | Cts35: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome! | 09:53 |
| Flannel | Danish989: if you mark kubuntu-desktop for installation in synaptic, it should tell you how much (MB) it has to download. I think (it's been a while since I've used it) | 09:53 |
| perlmonkey | unop: the problem was caused by a silly error, I was editing the wrong file..I wanted the profile of root, and was editing local user profile instead.. I edited /root/.profile and now all is fine | 09:53 |
| BHSPitLappy | Danish989, the liveCD doesn't automount hard drives | 09:53 |

| mark_ | hi there. I have a boot problem :( | 09:54 |
| BHSPitLappy | Danish989, during install, you decide which partitions get mounted where | 09:54 |
| unop | lambengolmor, sudo aptitude install linux-headers-$(uname -r) | 09:54 |
| Zacaa | hello | 09:54 |
| ruif13 | please | 09:54 |
| BoltClock | Flannel: not sure if i did it right... still a 403 | 09:54 |
| Danish989 | BHSPitLappy: what about installing inside windows using WIBE (or w/e its called, the new feature in hardy heron) | 09:54 |
| Myrtti | XceII: keep the offtopic someplace else. You've been told several times this, the next one will not be as plite | 09:54 |
| Myrtti | s/plite/polite/ | 09:55 |
| XceII | ok | 09:55 |
| BHSPitLappy | Danish989, what about it? | 09:55 |
| Danish989 | BHSPitLappy: do I have to specify where to mount them if I install that way, too? | 09:55 |
| Flannel | BoltClock: What are the permissions on that folder? | 09:55 |
| crash91 | could someone please help me? I installed some programs and now they refuse to start up. I used add/remove and ive got Hardy 64bit | 09:55 |

| Kyle__ | hey how do I use the phpmyadmin package after I install it? | 09:59 |
| BHSPitLappy | Danish989, Hardy comes with Transmission, it's quite good | 09:59 |
| unop | icesword, best to head to . http://packages.ubuntu.com | 09:59 |
| Starnestommy | Kyle__: restart apache, then go to http://localhost/phpmyadmin | 09:59 |
| El1 | Zacaa: I have the same problem, tho found a temporary fix, but it doesn't stick and resets back to lowres on reboot: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/Nvidia scroll down to troubleshooting and try that solution | 09:59 |

| Danish989 | BHSPitLappy: Thank you :) | 09:59 |
| Myrtti | Danish989: transmission or bittornado | 09:59 |
| icesword | unop_k | 10:00 |
| Zacaa | thanks El1 do you know if we'll ever get it fixed? | 10:00 |
| Zacaa | because I can promise you that I've tried everything possible | 10:00 |
| BoltClock | Flannel: i ran chmod -R 777 ~/public_html after moving my files there | 10:00 |
| El1 | Zacaa: same here m8, but that's the closest I've gotten to a fix: I even have gfx acceleration now, until I reboot that is. I just need to find a way so the settings stick after reboot, then it's cool | 10:00 |
| Flannel | BoltClock: try 644 instead of 777, unless you want arbitrary people to be able to write/execute | 10:01 |
| Swiftfoxer | audiotestsrc wave=sine freq=512 ! audioconvert ! audioresample ! gconfaudiosink profile=chat: Could not open audio device for playback.

| Flannel | BoltClock: And then once you've done that, you get a 403 when going to host/~boltclock/? | 10:01 |
| Zacaa | Oh yeah I see what you mean El1, in my hardware drivers section I have the Nvidia acceleration listed there, it's just not ticked | 10:01 |
| BHSPitLappy | El1, sorry you're having to resort to a hack solution, but you could add your fix to a startup script | 10:02 |
| BoltClock | Flannel: host/~boltclock or localhost/~boltclock? | 10:02 |
| crash91 | Could someone please help me!? Im trying to launch applications but they just dont start - for example avant window navigator... | 10:02 |
| XceII | somebody fix my sound. | 10:02 |
| Flannel | BoltClock: assuming you're on the same box, localhost will work, host would be a DNS entry, or an IP (or localhost) | 10:02 |
| Danish989 | lol | 10:02 |
| Zacaa | and have you tried that nvidia-settings? | 10:02 |
| Myrtti | XceII: no one will do it for you | 10:02 |
| BHSPitLappy | El1, Zacaa: It would be most beneficial if you could make sure a bug is filed for your issue | 10:02 |
| El1 | Zacaa: that didn't work for me atleast..., nvidia-settings works right now | 10:02 |
| unop | Swiftfoxer, find out what process has the sound device in use. lsof | grep -iE "/dev/snd|/dev/dsp" # and then terminate that process | 10:02 |
| Zacaa | it tells me to do nvidia-xconfig | 10:02 |
| BoltClock | Flannel: http://localhost/~boltclock gives me 403 | 10:02 |
| Myrtti | XceII: ask proper questions or begone | 10:02 |
| Zacaa | so I do that, and that doesn't work | 10:02 |
| El1 | BHSPITLAPPY: there are bugs filed for this issue | 10:02 |
| El1 | Zacaa: try the fix I linked | 10:03 |
| magnetron | Crshman: AWN usually is very hard to see, it's a small square and you have to drag icons to it | 10:03 |

| Benalex | Hello folks, When I start a program from terminal (firefox for example) the terminal kept occupied for this program and I have to open another terminal to do something else, is there a way to launch programs normally the same way we used to with DOS? | 10:03 |
| Swiftfoxer | unop, uhh, is that command complete? | 10:03 |
| Flannel | BoltClock: try chmod 755 ~/public_html | 10:03 |
| Zacaa | and I get something about battery inserted incorrectly??? | 10:03 |
| Zacaa | very strange why it says that :/ | 10:03 |
| Myrtti | Benalex: firefox& | 10:03 |
| Starnestommy | Benalex: put an & after the command | 10:03 |
| magnetron | Benalex: add a & after the command | 10:03 |
| Dr_willis | Benalex, read up on bash job control. use the COMMAND & , then the exit command. | 10:03 |
| unop | Swiftfoxer, yes, why? | 10:03 |
| XceII | stop hating me Myt | 10:03 |
| BHSPitLappy | Myrtti, perhaps if you've read as many of his/her messages as I have so far, they would already be gone :) | 10:03 |
| Flannel | BoltClock: if that doesn't work, I suppose we should verify that userdir is enabled. | 10:03 |
| Swiftfoxer | or do I have to remove the quotes? | 10:03 |
| Dr_willis | Benalex, do NOT just close the terminal window with the close button | 10:03 |
| CaptainMorgan | how do I get mpg's to show previews in a folder within a thumbnail? I installed the codecs- and .wmv's show thumbnails - I can't figure out why mpgs are not.. | 10:03 |

| Lester_ | todos ustedes estan bien pendejos | 10:03 |
| Zacaa | Yeah, I just had tried that fix actually, right before I came on here | 10:04 |

| El1 | Zacaa: the insmod /lib/modules/2.6.... part did it for me | 10:04 |
| Lester_ | vayanse a chinga a su puta madre | 10:04 |
| BHSPitLappy | El1, correct; You'd basically be having the command in a file within /etc/init.d/ | 10:04 |
| magnetron | Laser88: applications > internet > transmission | 10:04 |
| Zacaa | not me :/ | 10:04 |
| Zacaa | that seems to have done nothing | 10:04 |
| XceII | Myrtti: do u hate me? | 10:04 |
| Zacaa | or well | 10:04 |
| Zacaa | I rebooted | 10:04 |
| Benalex | unop , How are yo? | 10:04 |
| Zacaa | maybe that's why it doesn't seem to have done anything | 10:04 |
| Myrtti | XceII: no, but you need to behave | 10:04 |
| Zacaa | you say that it gets reset after boot right? | 10:04 |
| Laser88 | magnetron: I don't like transmission, I want to use bittorrent again | 10:04 |
| Lester_ | todos ustedes me maman la verga | 10:04 |
| Zacaa | can I pm you please? | 10:04 |
| BHSPitLappy | Laser88, Hardy comes with a bittorrent client called Transmission, and you can find it in the Internet section of your menu | 10:05 |
| FloodBot2 | Zacaa: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 10:05 |
| Lester_ | putos!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! | 10:05 |
| unop | Benalex, fine thanks, you? | 10:05 |
| Swiftfoxer | unop: that happens to be mixer_applet2 | 10:05 |
| BoltClock | Flannel: userdir? | 10:05 |
| BHSPitLappy | Laser88, ah... Should appear in the same place | 10:05 |
| El1 | BHSPitLappy: can I just make a text file within /etc/init.d with the command line commands I want to be executed? Or is it more complicated? | 10:05 |
| XceII | i am, i asked a legit q | 10:05 |
| Dr_willis | Laser88, theres a gui and nongui bittorrent packages/front ends. be sure you isntalld the proper ones. | 10:05 |
| El1 | Zacaa: sure | 10:05 |
| BHSPitLappy | El1, I believe the former :) | 10:05 |
| midwolf | my amule doesn't work at alllllllll! | 10:05 |
| Swiftfoxer | is it okay to terminate that process? | 10:05 |
| Myrtti | XceII: I'm now starting to lose my temper with you | 10:05 |
| unop | Swiftfoxer, you'll need to kill mixer_applet then | 10:05 |
| magnetron | Laser88: oh, do you refer to gnome-bittorrent? "bittorrent" is just a command-line app | 10:05 |
| cking37 | im having problems playing java games (ex: pogo.com) since updating to hardy. is that due to the beta version of firefox it shipped with, or the newer java? and if so, where can i get the older ones? | 10:05 |
| XceII | i stifle. | 10:05 |
| unop | kick him | 10:05 |
| Swiftfoxer | unop: oh okay | 10:05 |
| graingert | cking37 install firefox2 | 10:06 |

| graingert | laser88: use transmission | 10:06 |
| CaptainMorgan | how do I get mpg's to show previews in a folder within a thumbnail? I installed the codecs- and .wmv's show thumbnails - I can't figure out why mpgs are not.. | 10:06 |
| Dr_willis | Laser88, i dont use them.. ya could try running them from the cli. it may be the menus just need refreshed | 10:06 |
| cking37 | it says firefox2, but it says its 3beta5 when i go to 'about' | 10:06 |
| Ramosa | ubuntu live cd wouldn't allow me to run 2 monitors (clone off).. it was still cloned.. is it because the drivers are not found? | 10:06 |

| Swiftfoxer | unop: any idea how can I use these commands: http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-newbie-8/sound-not-working-in-debian.-635690/ ? | 10:06 |
| Dr_willis | cking37, ive noticed that when i ran firefox2 for a while - it started the F3 beta.. then it suddently started working right... | 10:07 |
| Myrtti | XceII: the absolute *FINAL* warning | 10:07 |
| BoltClock | Flannel: it still returns 403 | 10:07 |
| CaptainMorgan | cking37, you probably won't be able to get the older versions for Hardy | 10:07 |
| XceII | ok | 10:07 |
| barata | hallo guys .... as you know ... Ubuntu 8.04 makes us install KDE 3.5 and 4.0 ... DUMB! | 10:07 |
| Dr_willis | Laser88, im pretty sure thats not the proper command to launch it. :) | 10:07 |
| Myrtti | XceII: this channel is for support questions | 10:07 |
| midwolf | i have problem with no characters from flash in hardy. | 10:07 |
| barata | now, how to get rid of that 3.5? | 10:07 |
| CaptainMorgan | graingert, huh? | 10:07 |
| Laser88 | but apt-get says, bittorrent is already the newest version | 10:07 |
| barata | anybody did it already? | 10:07 |
| Flannel | BoltClock: its an apache module. Did you chmod that directory 755? did it work? (also, have you changed back your Document root to /var/www?) | 10:07 |
| Myrtti | XceII: if you've got none, then this channel is not for you | 10:07 |
| graingert | Dr_willis: that's because you didn't close the beta | 10:07 |
| CaptainMorgan | graingert, incorrect spelling too- it's with an 'a' | 10:07 |
| Flannel | barata: try #kubuntu-kde4 | 10:07 |

| ruif13 | thanks ubutom all it's ok for now :) | 10:08 |
| BoltClock | Flannel: chmodded to 755, i didnt change it back to /var/www/ | 10:08 |
| ruif13 | regards | 10:08 |
| ubutom | tnice, np ruif13 | 10:08 |
| Dr_willis | graingert, that may be why. i just rember that it started working right.. when i went to file a bug report. :) | 10:08 |
| BoltClock | Flannel: should i change it back? | 10:08 |
| graingert | CaptainMorgan: what desktop invorn | 10:08 |
| BHSPitLappy | XceII, ("fix my sound", "I don't like Hardy", "Hardy sucks" are NOT examples of valid questions) | 10:08 |
| CaptainMorgan | cking37, I'm a little nudged by it... but I assume the official release for 3.0 will be out soon | 10:08 |
| unop | Benalex, was this with the gnome-sudoku think? | 10:08 |
| unop | s/think/thing/ | 10:08 |
| CaptainMorgan | graingert, do you speak English? because I'm having difficulty understanding you | 10:08 |
| XceII | i understand Myrtti: no worries | 10:08 |
| graingert | BHSPitLappy: fix my sound is apropriate for pulse | 10:09 |
| XceII | calm down | 10:09 |
| graingert | CaptainMorgan: no it's an early morining | 10:09 |
| Flannel | BoltClock: also do this, chmod ~/ a+x | 10:09 |
| ubutom | CaptainMorgan: i think he meant environment ;-) | 10:09 |
| Swiftfoxer | unop: my sound is kinda broken. It wasn't broken a few days ago, but at one point ubuntu crashed and for some strange reason ALSA stopped working and gives me that error whenever I attempt a test at System->Preferences->Sound | 10:09 |
| graingert | CaptainMorgan: kde or gnome | 10:09 |
| CaptainMorgan | graingert, gnome :) | 10:09 |
| BHSPitLappy | Swiftfoxer, and this problem persists through a reboot? | 10:09 |
| cyclobs | anyone here running 64bit 8.04? | 10:10 |
| unop | Swiftfoxer, what error? sound device in use? | 10:10 |
| Swiftfoxer | yeah | 10:10 |
| BHSPitLappy | !anyone | cyclobs | 10:10 |
| ubotu | cyclobs: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..." Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out? | 10:10 |
| unop | Swiftfoxer, and does a process have the sound device open when you get the error? | 10:10 |
| Swiftfoxer | BHSPitLappy: I did several reboots. I can do another one now. | 10:10 |
| BoltClock | Flannel: chmod: invalid mode: `/home/boltclock/' | 10:10 |
| BHSPitLappy | Swiftfoxer, probably won't help ;) | 10:10 |
| CaptainMorgan | graingert, I got wmv's showing their thumbnails but I can't get mpg's to do the same | 10:10 |
| cyclobs | err ok, my questions kinda complicated | 10:10 |
| CaptainMorgan | any ideas ? | 10:10 |
| cking37 | i also cant seem to run kde4, is that due to my crappy video card? or is it more likely ive screwed something up? | 10:10 |
| Daniel0 | how do i set a partition to automatically mount when booting in hardy? | 10:10 |

| Flannel | BoltClock: sorry, chmod a+x ~/ | 10:11 |

| Swiftfoxer | funny, how when I closed them sound worked again. | 10:11 |
| graingert | CaptainMorgan: remember in gutsy you could change the app that made the preview | 10:12 |
| graingert | it was like mplayer -frame 1 | 10:12 |
| === ^ is now known as Stebanoid | ||
| Radtoo^laptop | kane77: many like amarok or exalie | 10:12 |
| CaptainMorgan | graingert, change the app ? I never had to do that... I would've remembered having to do so... :( | 10:12 |
| graingert | CaptianMorgan: or somthing | 10:12 |
| BoltClock | Flannel: just to confirm, i restart apache2 using `sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 restart` right? | 10:12 |
| XceII | Myrtti: i am just a user, calm down man, lookie here, i donate, monthly, im just like everyone else, i have issues, bu, i still lub u k? so let it go man. | 10:12 |

| cyclobs | 2 of my games (sauerbraten, AC) change the hight resolution when i start the game up (even when it's set to the same res as my desktop) and a game called Urban Terror works fine but it randomly forces it self out of full screen and and i can't do anything at all till i kill the process. any ideas why this is happening? | 10:12 |
| Daniel0 | osiris: so what would i put if i wanted /dev/sda1 to automatically mount? | 10:12 |
| graingert | CaptainMorgan: no not change it, set it in the first place set it | 10:13 |

| Myrtti | !u | XceII | 10:13 |
| ubotu | XceII: Unless you're Dutch or Flemish, or a government officier, the letter 'U' is not a pronoun. If you want to be taken more seriously, please bother to type out the extra letters in "you". The same goes for "are", "why", "because", "anyone", and so on.. | 10:13 |
| BoltClock | Flannel: when i do that it says apache2: Could not reliably determine the server's fully qualified domain name, using 127.0.1.1 for ServerName, its been like that since i first used the command | 10:13 |

| Muhammad_Saad | Hello, Can someone tell me what the package firefox-gnome-support does and how it does that? Is this package the reason that Firefox is running so slow on my PC? | 10:14 |

| Flannel | BoltClock: and now you can view (an empty) /var/www? | 10:14 |
| cyclobs | anyone help out on my question? | 10:14 |
| CaptainMorgan | graingert, I never had to set it either.... | 10:14 |
| BoltClock | Flannel: its not empty, it contains a single file, index.html and i can access that page | 10:15 |
| CaptainMorgan | graingert, in Gutsy, all I had to do was install the respective codecs... which I did for Hardy | 10:15 |
| Flannel | BoltClock: right, but the point is that part of it work. Does /~blueclock/ work? | 10:15 |
| Flannel | BoltClock: ~boltclock, sorry. Also, try going to a file, not just the index | 10:15 |
| BoltClock | Flannel: http://localhost/~boltclock no longer works, it gives 404 | 10:15 |
| graingert | CaptainMorgan: heron and giibbon are differnt animals, so to speak | 10:15 |
| CaptainMorgan | graingert, understood... can you explain how I enable this thumbnail preview for hardy? | 10:16 |
| Flannel | BoltClock: Alright, try going to /~boltclock/somefile-in-your-public_html-folder | 10:16 |
| cai | why can‘t open fonts:/// ? | 10:16 |
| BoltClock | Flannel: created /var/www/index.php and added a phpinfo() command in it... which works | 10:17 |

| F3d0rA | well I have heard of 64 bit PCI slots | 10:26 |
| Flannel | BoltClock: Oh, sorry. I'm an idiot | 10:26 |
| BHSPitLappy | cia-spy, huh? | 10:26 |
| F3d0rA | how woudl a 32 bit OS use a 64 bit slot when its only 32 bits | 10:27 |
| F3d0rA | see my point | 10:27 |
| BHSPitLappy | cia-spy, we aren't holding your nic prisoner :) | 10:27 |
| Dr_willis | F3d0rA, differnt ussage of the term bits. :) | 10:27 |
| nevermore | Looking for a new laptop; can anyone recommend one which is fully supported by Hardy Heron? | 10:27 |
| Giliean | Hello all, is there any way to convert MS exchange .pst files to a linux-friendly format? | 10:27 |
| BoltClock | Flannel: im using ubuntu desktop | 10:27 |
| Flannel | BoltClock: Here's a better one (that works as promised): ls -l /home/ | grep boltclock | 10:27 |
| nevermore | Especially with regards to Compiz. | 10:27 |
| Flannel | BoltClock: no, I know, I just wasn't thinking. | 10:27 |
| F3d0rA | so as long as your processor supports 64 bit then most likely all the rest of the hardware will function fine in a 64 bit OS? | 10:27 |
| BoltClock | drwxr-xr-x | 10:27 |
| Giliean | I'd like to read my company mail from home- the workplace is a bit medieval, They don't allow OWA. | 10:28 |
| BHSPitLappy | nevermore, System76 sells Ubuntu laptops, and so does Dell now (not that I recommend them for their customer support) | 10:28 |
| F3d0rA | thats the main question I have. As long as there are drivers for the hardware | 10:28 |
| dishayu | F3d0rA : it certainly will | 10:28 |
| Ubuntubruger3 | cyclobs Only games from Ubuntu system and they work OK | 10:28 |
| F3d0rA | thanks | 10:28 |
| blame | I think ubunto's compiz and mplayer collide as my screen flickers when playing full screen videos. Can anyone help me pinpoint the problem? | 10:28 |
| BHSPitLappy | Giliean, if it's anything except Outlook 2007, I think it should work in Evolution | 10:28 |
| nevermore | BHSPitLappy: true, but Dell don;t seem to be selling ones w/ Hardy yet. | 10:28 |
| dishayu | i can't go beyond 800x600 in hardy 32 bit, fresh install, nvidia card.. used to work fine on gutsy AMD64 on 1280x1024 | 10:28 |
| Flannel | and http://localhost/~boltclock/index.htm is a 404, and userdir.load is in /etc/apache2/mods-enabled? | 10:29 |
| BHSPitLappy | nevermore, the hardware compatibility would be the same | 10:29 |
| nevermore | Oh, ok. | 10:29 |
| F3d0rA | dishayu: Are you running the 64 bit version? I was wondering if there were any issues with th einstaller? I read something about something being installed a bit out of order in 8.04 | 10:29 |
| Vinnonet | whats the shortcut keys again for natilius to see hidden files | 10:29 |
| Starnestommy | Vinnonet: I think it's ctrl+h | 10:30 |
| cia-spy | BHSPitLappy, RELEASE MY NIC | 10:30 |
| BoltClock | Flannel: lol, userdir isnt there, i finally realized | 10:30 |
| Flannel | BoltClock: ah! Alright. sudo a2enmod userdir, then restart apache (after you run the command, it should be there, userdir.loadand userdir.conf) | 10:30 |
| dishayu | F3d0rA : i was on gutsy 64 before, now i switched to hardy 32... | 10:30 |
| nevermore | Well, the Dell's look okay, though I notice there's some issues with the X1300 graphics. | 10:30 |
| BHSPitLappy | Seveas, that was confusing | 10:30 |
| nevermore | And sadly System76 only ship to USA/Canada. | 10:30 |
| F3d0rA | gutsy? | 10:30 |
| Vinnonet | Sta, thats it thanks | 10:30 |
| Seveas | BHSPitLappy, yeah | 10:31 |
| Seveas | he did that to Myrtti earlier :) | 10:31 |
| F3d0rA | so the 64 bit is buggy? | 10:31 |
| dishayu | F3d0rA : yeah, code for ubuntu 7.10 | 10:31 |
| BHSPitLappy | Seveas, sounds like he thinks he's talking to the UN or something | 10:31 |
| Seveas | BHSPitLappy, United Nerdlings ;) | 10:31 |
| F3d0rA | Ah so no 64 bit 8.04 version as of yet? | 10:31 |
| dishayu | F3d0rA : not buggy, i can't run flash and some other stuff on it, as it is meant for 32 bit only | 10:31 |

| BoltClock | Flannel: after enabling | 10:32 |
| BHSPitLappy | I'm currently shopping for a lenovo | 10:32 |
| dishayu | F3d0rA : 8.04 64bit version is out... both were released together | 10:32 |
| Seveas | BHSPitLappy, thinkpads + linux = ok | 10:32 |
| BHSPitLappy | dishayu, flash works fine in 64-bit. | 10:32 |
| nevermore | Nice. | 10:32 |
| nevermore | Will look. | 10:32 |
| BHSPitLappy | Seveas, I'm actually looking at their 3000/ideapad lines | 10:33 |
| ubuntunewbie1 | Hello. Help me please! I have no sound after installation ^( | 10:33 |
| F3d0rA | thanks. Wow flash is not supported weird. I wonderif Flash is supported in Windows 64 bit XP and Vista or is it the same issue not support | 10:33 |
| BHSPitLappy | F3d0rA, Ubuntu takes care of making flash work for you on 64-bit. | 10:33 |
| dishayu | BHSPitLappy : it does work for few sites, but it doesn't on many others | 10:33 |
| schnootop | Since upgrading to hardy heron, if i watch a movie in full screen it kind of flickers (as in buffering) would that most likely be because of GStreamer or my gfx card ? | 10:33 |
| BHSPitLappy | dishayu, that makes little sense | 10:33 |
| BHSPitLappy | dishayu, flash is flash; It's either working or not | 10:34 |
| BHSPitLappy | There isn't a partial flash implementation. | 10:34 |
| F3d0rA | so Ubuntu must be running an emulated 32 bit mode ffor some software I imagine? | 10:34 |
| F3d0rA | like flash? | 10:34 |
| BHSPitLappy | F3d0rA, it installs flash in a wrapper, yeah | 10:34 |
| nevermore | Again with the X3100, though; does anyone know if the issues with this have been fixed? | 10:34 |
| Flannel | BoltClock: /var/log/apache2/error.log what does it say is wrong? | 10:34 |
| BHSPitLappy | Wouldn't call it emulation | 10:34 |
| Andycasss | My hardy fails to boot up, it has white screen (compiz error), i tried sudo apt-get remove compiz, but that didnt help me, i can switch workspaces with compiz effects.... How to fix it, it is a driver issue too, i uninstalled restricted drivers - thats when it happened... | 10:34 |
| BoltClock | Flannel: by the way userdir appears now | 10:34 |
| BHSPitLappy | F3d0rA, closer to how wine works, or ndiswrapper | 10:34 |
| F3d0rA | I see nice | 10:35 |
| dishayu | BHSPitLappy : well it did happen to me, it did work with a flash games and all, but youtube just flashed the player and went all ]black | 10:35 |
| earthling | can some one give any good links some cool .conkyrc files!! | 10:35 |
| F3d0rA | I wonder if WIne will run on 64 bit | 10:35 |
| BHSPitLappy | F3d0rA, yes. | 10:35 |
| Dr_willis | earthling, the conky homepage, and forums on the conky homepage. | 10:35 |
| F3d0rA | You know eventually all OS's will be 64 bit we are heading that way | 10:35 |
| BHSPitLappy | dishayu, F3d0rA: I wouldn't be speaking so assuredly for 64bit Ubuntu if I didn't use it myself :) | 10:35 |
| shulman | is there a way to revert hardy to the base ubuntu kernel? I tried installing VMWare and it hosed up my system | 10:35 |
| jimcooncat | F3d0rA: I think the major problem is in software that's distributed in binary format only | 10:36 |
| znh | Hello. I can't find the VLC package in Hardy Heron, I have main and universe, should I need to enable backports? I'd prefer not... | 10:36 |

| earthling | k | 10:36 |
| BHSPitLappy | F3d0rA, of course we are; 2GB of RAM is "standard" now. Anywhere up from that requires a 64-bit OS to address it all. | 10:36 |
| BoltClock | Flannel: apparently the log isnt saying anything related to the reload command | 10:36 |

| Daworm | fx|RabBit, it'd be much worse if you entered a rather embarrasing password. | 10:40 |
| Dr_willis | CaptainMorgan, cant say that ive had any problems with it either. | 10:40 |
| Flannel | BoltClock: If it failed to start, it's obviously going to say access denied. Unfortunately, it's not giving us any information to work with. try sudo a2dismod userdir, and then starting it again | 10:40 |

| GoodJob | hello | 11:07 |
| ihavenoname | hi | 11:07 |
| a5hx | hi everyone! | 11:07 |
| mfabbri | tkooda, because i have a bunch of extensions i rely on which are not compatible with ff3 | 11:07 |
| a5hx | quick xubuntu question | 11:07 |
| tkooda | BoltClock, was letting jaffarkelshac know that my /proc/acpi/video/*/*/brightness probably doesn't support writing to them | 11:07 |
| jaffarkelshac | so you dont have VGA/LCD? folders tkooda ? well not sure how to help then. if your keys work then try the brightness applet | 11:07 |
| woodsworth | hi guys, i'm having problems with thunderbird and the plugin lightning(0.8). My layout is totally messed up, does anybody have a solution? | 11:07 |
| richardprice | mfabbri: the extensions will be available soon, devs just playing catchup | 11:07 |
| mfabbri | tkooda, the problem is that profiles are shared among ff2 and ff3 | 11:07 |
| a5hx | how can i change the panels while applying a theme? | 11:07 |
| BoltClock | tkooda, you were saying to go to #apache... | 11:08 |
| seamus7 | mfabbri there's a delicious alpha extension which works with FF3 if that's one of the ones you need? | 11:08 |
| GoodJob | i'm just enjoying the music of John Williams from the Magnatune store and using the PulseAudio! it's awsome!! | 11:08 |
| unop | mfabbri, perhaps this. sudo aptitude install firefox-2 | 11:08 |
| tkooda | mfabbri, aah. yah, I noticed that 3.0b5 doesn't support all my preferred extensions, but I'm just gunna live with it (3.x) in the meantime | 11:08 |
| dupin | hi | 11:08 |
| mfabbri | seamus7, yep that zotero and google gears | 11:08 |
| GoodJob | PulseAudio ROX!! | 11:08 |
| richardprice | arent people finding ff3 to be a memory hog? | 11:08 |
| unop | firefox was always that way | 11:09 |
| insanepenguin | seamus7: thanks | 11:09 |
| morpholology | richardprice: I do find that it uses abnormally large amounts of CPU from tmie to time. | 11:09 |
| nhuyanhuk | I have 2 screens, 1st resolution is 1680x1050 and the 2nd is 1280x1024, if i want dual screens, what should i do to set it up? I have ATI X800GT graphic card | 11:09 |
| a5hx | deos xfce supprots gtk2 themes nativley? | 11:09 |
| unop | a5hx, i believe it does, yes | 11:09 |
| GoodJob | i think Opera webbrowser is better than Firefox | 11:09 |
| seamus7 | richardprice not like it used to be | 11:09 |
| tkooda | BoltClock, er, yah.. try the #apache channel for apache config-specific questions.. not that you can't get an answer here.. just that you might have better luck | 11:09 |
| r3k13m | Hello, is there a way to install b43-fwcutter without an internet conecction? | 11:09 |
| unop | a5hx, since it is basically coded in gtk | 11:09 |
| a5hx | so i just extract them to .themes/gtk2? | 11:09 |
| GoodJob | r3k13m, sure | 11:09 |
| richardprice | i'm having to use opera as ffb5 is really thrapping my machine for some reason | 11:09 |
| GoodJob | thrapping? | 11:10 |
| r3k13m | GoodJob, how? because it try to download the driver from internet | 11:10 |
| unop | a5hx, errm, i think so, yes | 11:10 |
| ubuntu_ | hi | 11:10 |
| richardprice | GoodJob: ok, i made that word up, maybe | 11:10 |
| N1NCHN41L5 | hello - ubuntu login question???? | 11:10 |
| a5hx | okay i'll give it a try, thanks | 11:10 |
| nhuyanhuk | any1 have experience of configuring 2 screens and make the effect work ? | 11:10 |
| ubuntu_ | when I tick effects on the desktop effects, nothing happens | 11:10 |
| richardprice | killing* | 11:10 |
| tkooda | mfabbri, aah. I had the same thoughts (thinking about downgrading to ff2 to get my extensions to work), but I'll just ride ff3 out and encourage (help???) the extension devs to be compat with ff3 | 11:10 |
| ubuntu_ | it doesnt activate the effect :( | 11:10 |
| r3k13m | I've already download the .deb, but when I try to dpkg -i, the packet try to download a the driver, and I'm stuck there | 11:11 |
| nhuyanhuk | any1 have experience of configuring 2 screens and make the effect work ? | 11:11 |
| tkooda | mfabbri, figured that downgrading dosn't help the cause much, and most* of mine worked anyway | 11:11 |
| mfabbri | tkooda, yep but even if you downgrade profiles are shared | 11:11 |
| Myrtti | !repeat | nhuyanhuk | 11:11 |
| ubotu | nhuyanhuk: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. You can search https://help.ubuntu.com or http://wiki.ubuntu.com while you wait. Also see !patience | 11:11 |
| mfabbri | tkooda, so you can't get back unsupported extensions | 11:11 |
| seamus7 | ubuntu_ I think what you're doing is just making the effects available .. you need to go to each tab (close, minimize, focus, open) within that window and choose the individual effect you wish for it to use | 11:11 |
| tkooda | nhuyanhuk, nope sorry | 11:11 |
| mfabbri | tkooda, I will stick with ff3 | 11:12 |
| GoodJob | r3k13m, use some other machine with internet access (go to a friend's house) and download the driver from his machine and then burn it on a CD or upload it to a USB dongle or something... and when you come back home, just do as you'd normally do | 11:12 |
| nhuyanhuk | :( | 11:12 |
| Parsec300 | Anybody have the madwifi drivers working on a MacBook Pro on Hardy? | 11:12 |
| ubuntu_ | k, let me try again, thanks seamus7 | 11:12 |
| mfabbri | tkooda, and have another profile (not shared) for zotero... | 11:12 |
| M3G4crux | hi to all | 11:12 |
| ubuntu_ | seamus7, still not working | 11:12 |
| nhuyanhuk | i have tried big desktop and it's not working either | 11:12 |
| GoodJob | hey this John Williams has some really honky great blues! ;) | 11:13 |
| nhuyanhuk | i mean i can have dual screen but no effect | 11:13 |
| tkooda | mfabbri, same. -I did notice that you can extract+modify a few xpi's to force them to allow ff3+ and they do work fine. (YMMV) | 11:13 |
| M3G4crux | I am having a problem with the update manager, I am using ubuntu feisty | 11:13 |
| dupin | #ubuntu i=pricechi freenode/staff/ubuntu.member.pricechild irc.freenode.net PriceChild G 0 pricechilde | 11:13 |
| r3k13m | GoodJob, mmm, I've already did it, I download the .deb, but when try to install it, it trys to download a .o file | 11:13 |
| mfabbri | tkooda, thanks for the suggestion | 11:13 |
| StoneNewt | 4000 in hex = 16384 in decimal | 11:13 |
| StoneNewt | ie 16k | 11:13 |
| tkooda | nice work on hardy though guys. btw. | 11:13 |
| GoodJob | r3k13m, an .o file? hmmm | 11:13 |
| StoneNewt | oops | 11:13 |
| ubuntu_ | can somebody pleas ehlep me? | 11:13 |
| GoodJob | tkooda, i agree with ya... trully a masterpiece! | 11:14 |
| ubuntu_ | seamus7: still not working | 11:14 |
| morpholology | r3k13m: That .o file contains the firmware for your wireless. You can download it separately and put it on a pendrive, and install it manually using the bcm43xx/b43-fwcutter command | 11:14 |
| seamus7 | ubuntu_ what effect do you wish to appear? | 11:14 |
| jaffarkelshac | does anyone find vlc without sound if you have firefox with flash video opened? i have to close firefox before sound returns | 11:14 |

| GoodJob | r3k13m, well there ya go ;) | 11:14 |
| nbkr | barata, display, convert - there are serveral commands. | 11:14 |
| r3k13m | morpholology, thanks, and where I cand found that file? | 11:14 |
| barata | how to install it with synaptic, what's the name nbkr ? | 11:15 |
| nbkr | imagemagick | 11:15 |
| ubuntu_ | seamus7: wobbly windows, deskotp cube and rotate cube | 11:15 |
| N1NCHN41L5 | ubuntu - check out WNOP on the puppy linux wiki - puplets it under 200MB and has all the compiz out the box | 11:15 |
| tkooda | ubuntu_, do you know what video chipset/manuf you have? | 11:15 |
| insmod | <barata>apt-get instal synaptic | 11:15 |
| seamus7 | desktop cube requires 'desktop cube' and 'rotate cube' plus I advise checking 'viewport switcher' ... the use your mouse wheel to rotate the cube or press down and hold the wheel button | 11:15 |
| insmod | <barata>apt-get install synaptic | 11:15 |
| ashley_ | I have installed the Latest Nivida Drivers on my new Hardysetup, however when I boot back into GDM it shows a blank white screen with some black distortion. | 11:15 |

| ubuntu_ | tkooda: nvidia FX 5200 GT | 11:16 |
| r3k13m | ok, thanks you, I think I found it | 11:16 |
| ubuntu_ | sorry, forgot that highlight thing | 11:16 |
| N1NCHN41L5 | if u can get it working in WNOP off live cd - might help u trouble shoot what ur missing in ubuntu | 11:16 |
| tkooda | ubuntu_, e.g. if you have an nvidia chipset you may need to run Applications->System->HArdware Drivers to install the "nvidia" drivers to get wobbly windows? | 11:16 |
| nhuyanhuk | any1 have experienced this ? Comparing resolution (3360x1050) to maximum 3D texture size (2048): Failed. | 11:16 |
| morpholology | r3k13m: I generally just copy the URL it tries to wget from. =) | 11:16 |
| barata | I have synaptic ... I need to install imagemagick | 11:16 |
| barata | what's the name? | 11:16 |
| ubuntu_ | tkooda: ok, im a little new to this | 11:17 |
| ubuntu_ | let me try | 11:17 |
| GoodJob | i once bricked my SanDisk Sansa e260 but i put it back to life again ;) | 11:17 |
| tkooda | ubuntu_, no prob | 11:17 |
| N1NCHN41L5 | can aANYONE help me get back into my ubuntu | 11:17 |
| ubuntu_ | tkooda: there is no system tab in apps, there is no hardware tab in system tab next to app tab | 11:17 |
| ubuntu_ | lol, confusing | 11:17 |
| richardprice | N1NCHN41L5: got another monitor? | 11:17 |
| GoodJob | N1NCHN41L5, please tell what's the prob | 11:17 |
| tkooda | ubuntu_, I think* you'll ned the proprietary nvidia drivers (using that "Hardware Drivers" item) and then a reboot | 11:17 |
| N1NCHN41L5 | i changed the resolution last night | 11:18 |
| morpholology | barata: sudo aptitude install imagemagick, and note that you can press tab to complete package names. | 11:18 |
| tkooda | ubuntu_, "applications" menu.. to "System" menu item.. | 11:18 |
| N1NCHN41L5 | and when i boot up i get the login screen | 11:18 |
| tkooda | ubuntu_, perhaps right-click on desktop to get the menu? | 11:18 |
| ubuntu_ | tkooda: im just booting 8.04 form the cd | 11:18 |
| ashley_ | I have used the Hardware Drivers method aswell, however after reboot i am just displayed with a white screen. | 11:18 |
| N1NCHN41L5 | but once it goes into ubuntu its just black not even mouse cursor | 11:18 |
| N1NCHN41L5 | i ctrl alt backspace and i get login screen again | 11:19 |
| ubuntu_ | gah | 11:19 |
| ubuntu_ | hang on | 11:19 |
| ubuntu_ | hangon | 11:19 |
| N1NCHN41L5 | even failsafe gnome didnt work | 11:19 |
| ubuntu_ | my screen is too small on linux, its as if the res has gone down without loosing quality | 11:19 |
| barata | thanks morpholology | 11:19 |
| tkooda | ubuntu_, aah.. umnn.. then I dunno. you might* not be able to test wobly windows with just the live cd.. you might* be able to specify a special boot argument to specify nvidia drivers, but I don't think so. | 11:19 |
| ubuntu_ | tkooda:I ahve apps, places and system at the top | 11:20 |
| seamus7 | ubuntu_ ohhhh .. I don't think you can run compiz effects from the live cd ... could be wrong ... | 11:20 |
| afancy | Hi, >Hi, how to make wireless work in Ubuntu? | 11:20 |
| roachmmflhyr | why doesn't hardy come with rtl8185 drivers installed? 6.06 came out of the box working..... | 11:20 |
| N1NCHN41L5 | afancy use qemu | 11:20 |
| ubuntu_ | tkooda: I click apps then system? | 11:20 |
| tkooda | ubuntu_, I'm operating on the assumption* that the nvidia driver is required for compiz (wobbly windows) effects.. which probably* isn't available in the live cd interface.. (but is just a click or two once installed. ?) | 11:21 |
| ubuntu_ | seamus7: I was thinking that, but then I thoguht,h eck I can install flash player, give it a shot :p | 11:21 |
| ubuntu_ | tkooda: how would I normally go about it, just to try it anyway | 11:21 |
| BoltClock | what music player for ubuntu would compare very well with winamp? | 11:21 |
| ubuntu_ | tkooda: incase it does work on the cd | 11:21 |
| graingert | tkooda: yes that's true | 11:21 |
| diego | hello, i have a problem with the cron daemon | 11:21 |
| tkooda | ubuntu_, apps->system->hardware_drivers | 11:21 |
| morpholology | BoltClock: Either XMMS or Audacious. | 11:21 |
| ubuntu_ | i dont ahve system under apps | 11:21 |
| graingert | !question | 11:21 |

| richardprice | Arkkis: sounds like its apache | 11:22 |
| tkooda | ubuntu_, graingert confirms that the live cd doesn't have the proprietary nvidia driver required for your hardwrae to utilize the compiz effects (wobbly windows).. ..which I believe* means that you'd need to do an install (or a buncha* work to get it going for each boot on a livecd) | 11:22 |
| ashley_ | Do you mean try and login without seing it, and see if it boots up correctly once loged in? | 11:22 |
| richardprice | Arkkis: you sure you apache conf file got the extra modules in there for php? | 11:22 |
| seamus7 | ubuntu_ I'm reading that if you need the restricted drivers for your graphics card then hardy heron might not be able to run the cimpiz effects from a livecd ... I think he means the System/Administration/HardswareDrivers ... it should be located right on the panel next to Applications and Places | 11:23 |

| Arkkis | richardprice, I've gone trough the apache2.conf file, and yes, it seems to include php5 module (as it imports all modules from a certain folder, and php module is there, and if I try to manually add php5 module, it complains that it's already running) | 11:24 |

| roachmmflhyr | tau, yes | 11:28 |
| crash91 | tau: yes, i just did it yesterday | 11:28 |
| tkooda | tau, yes | 11:28 |
| tau | how? | 11:28 |
| N1NCHN41L5 | ubuntu will shrink partition automatically in install | 11:29 |
| Dr_willis | tau, vista can do it.. gparted can do it.. | 11:29 |
| anthony | #ubuntu-fr | 11:29 |

| roachmmflhyr | tau, use hardy and it will do it for you pretty much | 11:29 |
| Xaroon | how can i fat32 partition add the /etc/fstab ? | 11:29 |
| tkooda | tau, the hardy installer can do it | 11:29 |
| diego | i tried with gnome-schedule but it didn work eiter | 11:29 |
| tau | will the installer also do the defragging? | 11:29 |
| anthony | # ubuntu-fr | 11:29 |

| seamus7 | tau: I did it in windows first | 11:29 |
| roachmmflhyr | I need help with hardy detecting my pci wifi card | 11:29 |
| tau | I mean you need to defrag the NTFS partition first don't you? | 11:30 |
| mrmonday | tkooda: thanks, but it didn't work :/ | 11:30 |
| seamus7 | tau I believe yes | 11:30 |
| tau | can you do that from ubuntu? | 11:30 |
| Xaroon | hey guys.. how can i fat32 partition mount and add the /etc/fstab ? | 11:30 |
| crash91 | tau: yes, use jkdefrag | 11:30 |
| tkooda | crash91, compiz requires (for e.g. nvidia chipsets) proprietary ("nvidia") drivers.. apps->system->hardware_drivers to install them | 11:30 |

| Dr_willis | Xaroon, you can edit the fstab to add an entry for a fat32 filesystem.. . You may want to read up on the fstab format, and backup your original first. | 11:31 |
| Dr_willis | !fat32 | Xaroon | 11:31 |

| tkooda | mrmonday, been aswering multiple at a time, fergot yer origional question. what was the issue again? | 11:31 |
| crash91 | tkooda: no proprietary drivers installed | 11:31 |
| tau | ok, so I'll go back to windows and defrag first | 11:31 |
| crash91 | tkooda: i have an intel 945GM | 11:31 |
| tkooda | crash91, know what video chipset (e.g. nvidia/intel?) you have? | 11:31 |

| crash91 | tkooda: ive had fedora 7 running compiz fusion before..... | 11:33 |
| tau | crash91: did you have to defrag first? | 11:33 |
| mrmonday | tkooda: if I start the gdmgreeter, then I get a message about conflicting versions, so was wondering if there was a special way of doing it? | 11:33 |
| tkooda | mrmonday, that's a bit tricky.. (just "nonstandard").. -just so I'm clear.. you want to access a login prompt remotely using VNC? | 11:33 |

| roachmmflhyr | anyone around that knows a bit about realtek wifi cards and hardy?? | 11:34 |
| tkooda | mrmonday, I'm unfarmiliar with 'gdmgreeter'.. I think* you'll want to start another copy of gdm_login_+xorg on a "seperate display" (e.g. ":1" instead of ":0"?), and then use something like x2vnc to connect to that x session?) | 11:35 |
| magnetron | !wifi | roachmmflhyr | 11:35 |
| ubotu | roachmmflhyr: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs | 11:35 |
| tkooda | mrmonday, that way it'll be completely seperate login+session+desktop from your current one | 11:35 |
| roachmmflhyr | magnetron, been there, done that, dont work | 11:35 |
| magnetron | !doesn't work | roachmmflhyr | 11:35 |
| ubotu | roachmmflhyr: Doesn't work is a strong statement. Does it sit on the couch all day? Does it want more money? Is it on IRC all the time? Please be specific! Examples of what doesn't work tend to help too. | 11:35 |
| thebiglife | anyone here using mt-daapd/firefly under hardy? | 11:35 |

| stippi | I would like to upgrade from 7.10 but switch from ext3 to reiserfs at the same time. I have a spare partition, Is there a painless way to "backup" my user data (ie, including my package configuration) to this partition, install 8.04 clean and then reapply my user data "backup"? | 11:39 |
| Aenigma | Is there a way i can install Ubuntu to boot along side Vista and XP? | 11:39 |
| Oli`` | Daemonus: you usually have to run vmware-configure.pl to recompile for new kernels but it only takes a little time | 11:39 |
| Dr_willis | Aenigma, the normal install of ubuntu creates a boot menu to do that. | 11:39 |
| tkooda | Daemonus, dunno about vmware. I'd highly* suggest checking out the 'kvm' packages (for virtualization). -I've been using them in production for a few months now | 11:39 |
| Daemonus | ahh ok | 11:39 |
| Oli`` | Daemonus: correction: vmware-config.pl | 11:39 |
| tkooda | Daemonus, 'kvm' "just works" (no cusom this+that/compiling/installing) | 11:40 |
| Aenigma | It wont matter that there are two other OS's then? | 11:40 |
| tkooda | Daemonus, `apt-cache search qemu` `apt-cache search kvm` | 11:40 |
| Callipyginous | How would i go about setting samba to start upon boot? | 11:40 |

| roachmmflhyr | magnetron, it is detected by is dmesg but when I click edit wireless networks..nothing is it there...i tried adding wlan0 to /etc/network/interfaces and restart networking but it says wlan0 cant be found | 11:40 |
| unop | stippi, it can be done, but is probably best done offline i.e. while being booted up in a live-CD session .. backup all your data in all partition to another partition/drive, format the partitions you want as reiserfs, restore data back - then boot up again and perform an upgrade | 11:41 |
| TheSandman | i get "ALSA lib pcm_dmix.c:874:(snd_pcm_dmix_open) unable to open slave" when i run firefox 3 in the terminal and it doesn't have any sound | 11:41 |
| tkooda | Daemonus, 'kvm' is a (barely?) modified version of 'qemu' that leverages the virtualization features of modern processors | 11:41 |
| Dr_willis | Callipyginous, if you isntalled the samba package. it should be starting as a service automaticially. However the default configs dont really do much for samba. | 11:41 |
| magnetron | roachmmflhyr: what are the outputs from iwconfig? | 11:41 |
| unop | Callipyginous, if samba is installed but still not starting up - this might do it, sudo dpkg-reconfigure -plow samba | 11:42 |
| thebiglife | Callipyginous: did you read this? http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=250673 | 11:42 |

The files are downloaded but update manager wont run....is there a way to get the process going again through command line (network manager isn't up so I have no internet on the machine) | 11:46 |
| wesley__ | hello monopolie gnome users i want to remove complete gnome how to do on 8.04 | 11:46 |
| graingert | N1NCHN41L5: have you tried editing your xorg.conf from a tty | 11:46 |
| tkooda | N1NCHN41L5, er.. perhaps `dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg` | 11:46 |
| graingert | wesley__: do you want kde and nothing else? | 11:47 |
| wesley__ | yes | 11:47 |
| graingert | wesley__: why? | 11:47 |
| wesley__ | because gnome sucks | 11:47 |
| graingert | wesley__: just use kde, disable gdm | 11:47 |
| graingert | wesley__: that way kde can use gnome apps nicely | 11:47 |
| tkooda | paulspad, `apt-get update && apt-get upgrade ` ..perhaps an '-f' (`apt-get -f install`??) in there somewhere.. then yer `apt-get dist-upgrade` (er, "full-upgrade" now?) | 11:48 |
| wesley__ | and is messy in my kde4 session now my browers opens torrents with transmission :( | 11:48 |
| graingert | wesley__: if you wan't to remove use aptitude remove ubuntu-desktop | 11:48 |

| tkooda | N1NCHN41L5, no prob | 11:53 |
| jeffhyde | wow, who is a employee from linux | 11:54 |
| tkooda | ailean, define "connect to"? -you mean share files/folders? | 11:54 |
| usicow | how I can see/increase the size of the buffer that is used for the Ctrl-R (reverse search) feature of the console? | 11:54 |

| Dr_willis | magnetron, how are you planning on seeing this desktop session? | 11:55 |

| magnetron | Dr_willis: yes. | 11:55 |
| Dr_willis | magnetron, the command 'gnome-session' will start one.. | 11:55 |
| magnetron | Dr_willis: oh, thank you | 11:56 |
| graingert | magentron: gnome-session | 11:56 |
| kieren_ | There is, but I'm not sure how | 11:56 |
| magnetron | graingert: ty | 11:56 |
| kieren_ | You want it to boot into a different runlevel | 11:56 |
| ailean | tkooda, share files - ideally i want to navigate gnome to folders on my desktop from my laptop, but i would also like to be able to use the desktop "natively" from my laptop | 11:56 |
| Dr_willis | magnetron, I asked.. HOW. :) vnc , ssh -X the whole X session? | 11:56 |
| tkooda | magnetron, if you ssh into a server (e.g. with 'ssh -X') you can just run x apps and they should open up on your local x session display if you have xforwarding allowed (is by default??) | 11:56 |
| graingert | ailean: nfs would be a good way to go | 11:56 |
| kieren_ | Probably a setting in /boot/grub/menu.lst | 11:56 |
| graingert | ailean: or sshfs is better | 11:56 |
| magnetron | Dr_willis: ssh -X | 11:56 |

| groovelator | Hi. I installed 8.04 with wubi. It worked fine for a couple of days and then I get the following error on boot: Filesystem type is ntfs, partition type 0x7. kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.24-16 generic root = UUID = AC9E97959E9756A4 loop=/ubuntu/disks/root.disk ro quiet splash Error 15 : File Not Found. Now it won't boot at all to Ubuntu (but will to XP). I installed to an external usb hdd... | 12:11 |
| groovelator | ...from windows. Any ideas? | 12:11 |

| tsk | anyone experienced problems playing movies in 8.04? Mplayer starts and plays 1 frame then freeze. Totem plays 1 frame every 2 seconds. Worked fine with gutsy. I got a Intel 915 video adapt. | 12:11 |

| vibeseeker | hi! can anybody help me, i want tu run a tls encrypted proftpd | 12:16 |
| unop | stippi, but you must do this offline, not while the system is booted up- be careful | 12:16 |
| jeffhyde | what should i do Dr Willis my laptop boots and sometimes freezes so i do not want to turn off my laptop i will not be able to load ubuntu | 12:16 |
| tkooda | Daemonus, sounds like your cpu dosn't have vm support built in? -try running: for flag in `awk -F':' '/^flags/{print $2}' /proc/cpuinfo`; do echo $flag; done | grep '\(svm\|vmx\|pae\)' # and look for "pae"=para-virtualized guests, "vmx"=intel fully-virtualized guests, "svm"=amd fully-virtualized guests | 12:16 |
| stippi | unop: Oh, I need to do it the other way around? cd into the backup partition and then pull the one I want to backup? | 12:16 |
| akonkwa | Everytim eI try to install an application wiith synaptic, it says the application is obsolete, unreferernced or there is no installation candidate. any help ? | 12:16 |
| unop | stippi, not necessary as you are using full path names, it does not matter where you are really - but i stress again, this must be done offline | 12:17 |
| xanax` | is there a "qt 4.4 rc1 .deb binary file" available ? I only find 4.3.4 in repositories | 12:17 |

| groovelator | ...installed to an external usb hdd from windows. Any ideas? Is there any hope? | 12:17 |
| unop | stippi, cool | 12:17 |
| stippi | unop: tar tells me about removing leading / from "member names" and "hard link targets", sounds correct? | 12:18 |
| olifox | hey all. is anyone using hardy with an intel integrated audio card? (using the snd_hda_intel module) i can't get any sound at all, though it is detected, and i've tried updating the alsa modules etc | 12:18 |

| jeffhyde | why when i press the power botton my laptop does not load | 12:19 |
| tkooda | groovelator, hard to say? | 12:19 |

| stippi | unop: no, I mean I want it verbos, it is quite right ow | 12:20 |
| tkooda | groovelator, wait.. didn't notice you installed to external usb hdd.. I'd speculate that there's some other funny business going on with trying to boot to the removable media | 12:20 |

| stippi | unop: thanks a bunch! | 12:21 |
| tkooda | groovelator, that fix might* still work.. but dunno. is a bit shady. -you could* try modifying yer grub boot line | 12:21 |

| graingert | imaginativeone: yes | 12:22 |
| tkooda | amews_aj, emacs, vim, nano are all text editors that you can use to write php code in | 12:22 |
| viyyer | amews_aj, phpedit is nice too | 12:22 |
| groovelator | tkooda, i wouldn't have chosen that drive apart from the installer saw that it had the most space and suggested it - so I said ok | 12:22 |

| graingert | !jre | imaginativeone | 12:23 |
| ubotu | imaginativeone: please see above | 12:23 |
| viyyer | amews_aj, it is actually gphpedit | 12:23 |
| amews_aj | what do you prefer ? | 12:23 |
| Dr_willis | akonkwa, 'update' the repository listing, upgrade, then try again. | 12:23 |
| alastor666 | plop all :) | 12:23 |
| tkooda | groovelator, yah.. my previous suggestion would probably be what I'd try if it wasn't a usb drive.. but I dunno about the removable media. (reading yer error message again) | 12:23 |
| graingert | ailean: hi | 12:23 |
| amews_aj | does any of them have step-by-step debugging ? | 12:23 |

| graingert | ailean: make sure you secure your ssh | 12:25 |
| groovelator | tkooda, ok thanks very much. It's no biggy as i was installing out of interest & don't have any data on there. Perhaps uninstalling and then reinstalling to c: might be the best idea for now. | 12:25 |
| grahamperrin | ailean: AFAIR there's a permission to change, or a group membership, or something, before the command will work as expected | 12:25 |
| ailean | yeah, just by adding a password? | 12:25 |
| akonkwa | Dr_willis, I still have the same problem... any idea ? | 12:25 |
| Dr_willis | akonkwa, not really. | 12:25 |
| tkooda | groovelator, dunno. never tried wubi. never tried booting off external/removable drive. -is possible, I'd say just format entire internal (windows+all) drive and go just clean/fresh/default ubuntu install. (I'm a bit biased, but it works for me and others here) | 12:25 |
| afancy | N1NCHN41L5: where is the add/remove? | 12:25 |

| Guillaum3 | where do i copy what files from the cd to make the updater not have to download them. | 12:30 |
| afancy | as i cannot find the "Wireless connection" in my network settings | 12:30 |

| Guillaum3 | what will it do to my current setup? | 12:32 |
| znh | RldaGr8te, is it a PCI card? | 12:32 |
| Guillaum3 | if i just overwrite everything | 12:33 |

| El1 | Dr_willis: oh ok, well thanks anyway tho :-) | 12:33 |
| znh | RldaGr8te, copy the output of lspci and paste it at me privately | 12:33 |

| unop | chelz, it's called perl or <use your favourite scripting language here> :) | 12:33 |
| ailean | graingert, seems not :) i was logged into my desktop through "connect to server", but i didn't have sshfs installed, so it can't be that! | 12:34 |

| unop | stippi, sure, but i dont know off of the top of my head how to do that, the tar manpage should help. | 12:44 |
| Starnestommy | ruif13: what was the problem that you were having with ultravnc? | 12:44 |
| ruif13 | yes :) | 12:44 |
| stippi | unop: yes, I will check that, thanks for all your help. | 12:45 |
| ruif13 | is that i made the upgrade of distro my vnc stops work | 12:45 |
| stippi | unop: btw, the gub settings reference a partition ID, will this change because of the fs? | 12:45 |

| unop | stippi, you should be fine as long as you change filesystem to something grub recognizes .. and those are extX, reiserfs, xfs, jfs afaik .. other filesystems would have problems | 12:47 |

| tau | can someone tell me what the *minimum* disk space is required for installing Ubuntu? | 13:00 |
| Starnestommy | ruif13: I think it might be a bug in vnc4. There appear to be a few similar ones appearing on http://tinyurl.com/6jt4uo | 13:00 |
| Certh | roachmmflhyr: are there any visual enhancements? | 13:00 |
| Starnestommy | tau: 2GB might work, but I would recommend at least 8 | 13:00 |

| IntangibleLiquid | what's the best power manager for laptops? Is the default one ok? | 13:01 |
| cgentry72 | IntangibleLiquid, i have the default and it works great | 13:01 |

| fserve | ouvindo[Stratovarius - Stratovarius - Götterdämmerung] length[3:55/7:16] | 13:01 |

| fserve | who came first? | 13:03 |
| cgentry72 | vdk, if everything is working from the livecd then take a chance and install it. You'll love its power and speed | 13:03 |
| znh | HardyOne, ty allot | 13:03 |
| fserve | who came first samba or windows network and sharing? | 13:03 |
| HardyOne | znh: http://www.clickmojo.com/code/cron-tutorial.html use this to setup cron to fetch every 5 minutes | 13:03 |
| ceil420 | ricanelite, you might want to see if there's a "firefox2" in the repos, too | 13:03 |
| Starnestommy | fserve: windows's file sharing | 13:03 |
| cgentry72 | IntangibleLiquid, i agree, now i'm done with windblows for good | 13:03 |
| vdk | Does anyone know for sure if CoD4, cs, 1.6 and source and ventrilo work perfectly? | 13:03 |
| Ziroday | ricanelite: there is a firefox 2 package in the repos called firefox-2 | 13:03 |
| HardyOne | znh: you are welcome . I use that same script btw :) | 13:03 |
| fserve | so samba was made to be a linux version of windows file sharing, that's right? | 13:03 |
| Starnestommy | fserve: yes | 13:04 |
| roachmmflhyr | Can someone help me out here. http://paste.ubuntu.com/8344/ I cannot get my wireless to work in Hardy I have a RTL-8185 chipset | 13:04 |
| fserve | Starnestommy, are you sure about this? | 13:04 |
| Ziroday | vdk: I know that cs 1.6 and ventrilo does, don't know about COD4 | 13:04 |
| magnetron | vdk: there's an appdb that will tell you how good they work in Wine. htpp://appdb.winehq.org | 13:04 |
| ricanelite | Ziroday, thanks | 13:04 |
| cgentry72 | fserve, why do u need to know | 13:04 |
| Starnestommy | fserve: yes | 13:04 |
| fserve | cos samba dont hidden folders with $ at the end | 13:04 |
| vdk | Thanks :] | 13:04 |
| fserve | so it would be a bug | 13:05 |
| fserve | if samba was made to be a linux version of windows network and sharing | 13:05 |
| IntangibleLiquid | I wonder if I should install an antivirus app for ubuntu. Any suggestion? | 13:05 |
| Ziroday | !enter > fserve (please see PM from ubotu) | 13:05 |
| cgentry72 | IntangibleLiquid, i wouldn't bother | 13:05 |
| cgentry72 | IntangibleLiquid, linux is pretty virus free | 13:05 |
| fserve | Ziroday, sorry. | 13:05 |
| HardyOne | !clamav | IntangibleLiquid | 13:05 |
| ubotu | Sorry, I don't know anything about clamav - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi | 13:05 |
| Starnestommy | IntangibleLiquid: unless you'll be sending emails with attachments or sharing files with windows users, it isn't needed | 13:06 |
| Ziroday | fserve: no problems :) | 13:06 |
| cgentry72 | IntangibleLiquid, but to be on the safe side i suppose it wouldn't hurt | 13:06 |
| Pulledteeth | Ziroday, what more information do you need? Would you like the print out of the terminal when it crashes? | 13:06 |
| Ziroday | Pulledteeth: yes please | 13:06 |
| IntangibleLiquid | oh ok | 13:06 |
| IntangibleLiquid | thanks guys | 13:06 |
| cgentry72 | IntangibleLiquid, no problem | 13:06 |
| magnetron | fserve: the "hidden" shares on a windows server can easily be found. i would say calling them "hidden" is a bug | 13:06 |
| IntangibleLiquid | I often bring my laptop to school and my friend's pendrives are full of viruses | 13:06 |
| Ziroday | IntangibleLiquid: all the antivirus apps in the ubuntu repos scan for _windows_ viruses, not linux ones | 13:06 |
| fserve | magnetron, hahah :p | 13:07 |
| cgentry72 | IntangibleLiquid, then i wouldn't let them use your computer | 13:07 |

| cgentry72 | IntangibleLiquid, then tell them to install ubuntu lol | 13:07 |
| HardyOne | IntangibleLiquid: give them an Ubuntu CD | 13:07 |
| Myrtti | IntangibleLiquid: then by all means, install clamav | 13:07 |
| IntangibleLiquid | cgentry72: 90% of them are girls so it's hard to turn them down. | 13:07 |
| Juhaz | you're not doing them any favours by cleaning the pendrives if their own computers still crawl with the things | 13:08 |
| cemc | i disabled the ipv6 module, by placing 'blacklist ipv6' in /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-own, now in /var/log/syslog i get 'Apr 27 15:06:46 ds9n modprobe: WARNING: Not loading blacklisted module ipv6', more often than not. can this be disabled somehow ? | 13:08 |
| Myrtti | though I'm not sure it would do any special good since I've not used it myself | 13:08 |
| cgentry72 | IntangibleLiquid, even still lol | 13:09 |
| Kyle__ | cemc: why did you blacklist ipv6? | 13:09 |
| IntangibleLiquid | ok hehe | 13:09 |
| Ziroday | After I suspend or hibernate nm-applet does not connect to any networks, any ideas why? | 13:09 |
| IntangibleLiquid | I'm sure they will be amazed by how this wonderful distro perform and wonder if this is Vista something :) | 13:09 |
| cemc | Kyle__: so it doesn't load up IPv6, because i don't need it | 13:10 |
| ricanelite | why I can't install addons and themes in Firefox 2? Never had a problem before | 13:10 |
| heather | does anyone know where i can find a gtkmm2.4 package? | 13:10 |
| cgentry72 | IntangibleLiquid, its amazing. sometimes a challenge but it runs so much smoother and there is so much you can do with it. | 13:10 |
| rohan | whenever i try to play a file using mplayer, i get this message - AO: [pulse] Failed to connect to server: Connection refused | 13:10 |
| rohan | after that it uses the AO [alsa] and play back works | 13:10 |
| rohan | is this a known problem, expected to happen? | 13:10 |
| roachmmflhyr | Can someone help me out here. http://paste.ubuntu.com/8344/ I cannot get my wireless to work in Hardy I have a RTL-8185 chipset | 13:11 |
| Kyle__ | cemc: ah, well as time goes on ipv6 is being added to different parts of ubuntu and its probably things wanting ipv6 thats putting the messages in your syslog | 13:11 |
| Ziroday | heather: there are gtkmm packages in the repos, they are called libgtkmm-2.4 | 13:11 |
| vdk | One final question before I go off to instal. Where can i find out if my ATI x1650pro drivers are going to be found correctly, I've people have issues with the drivers not working. | 13:11 |
| IntangibleLiquid | cgentry72: it really is, some of my friends are switching already. | 13:11 |
| Ziroday | vdk: run the live cd | 13:12 |
| cgentry72 | IntangibleLiquid, i think ubuntu will take off with this version and hopefully blow windows out of the water | 13:12 |
| IntangibleLiquid | I think 8.04 is really a milestone and the slogan : you'll never go back is absolutely true | 13:12 |
| rohan | cgentry72: you mean 8.04? | 13:12 |
| cgentry72 | rohan, sorry yes | 13:12 |
| cemc | Kyle__: found this one, https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/module-init-tools/+bug/66423, maybe i'll just wait it out ;) thanks | 13:12 |

| Ziroday | After I suspend or hibernate nm-applet does not connect to any networks, any ideas why? | 13:13 |
| rohan | cgentry72: hehe, why do you hate it? | 13:13 |
| esteth_ | In honesty i can't see what's really all that much better about 8.04 than 7.10. People will continue to speculate on wether or not this year is the year of linux for the next 5 years or so at least, i reckon | 13:13 |
| IntangibleLiquid | cgentry72: you know, I had a bad time with 7.10 and I'm really impressed with what this version is capable of | 13:13 |

| albech | i miss my 7.10 :( | 13:14 |
| heather | is feisty perhaps too out of date for newer? no this is just a browsing box, so its not kept as up to date. | 13:14 |
| rohan | albech: why? | 13:14 |
| cgentry72 | btw, is there a moderator for this channel? | 13:14 |
| IntangibleLiquid | esteth_: I couldnt care less. But sound and many other features didnt work for me in 7.10. So there are so many differences | 13:14 |
| heather | this is actually my wife's machine. i dont have the time to keep her updated unless absolutely needed. and i am still wary of doing larger upgrades like updating to a new major release. | 13:15 |
| Ziroday | heather: ah, then yes feisty is too old, you probably need to upgrade to run gtkmm2.4 | 13:15 |
| Starnestommy | cgentry72: there are several, but they aren't marked as ops unless there's an emergency | 13:15 |
| heather | but she may be do for a reimage anyway. | 13:15 |

| Ziroday | pjv: made by different companies/corporations , they each have different features and are both argueble over which one is faster | 13:16 |
| esteth_ | IntangibleLiquid: Yes, i'm not saying this release isn't a good improvement in general workingness, since that's what it's for as an LTS, but it's not revolutionary (and shouldn't have been) and until intrepid at the very earliest i don't think there's going to be a "linux boom" on the desktop | 13:16 |

| CaptObvious | anyone know any reason why ubuntu server would remount a filesystem as read-only without a reboot? | 13:17 |
| pjv | Ziroday: which do you prefer? | 13:17 |

| cgentry72 | Starnestommy, nothing it just sits there. no error from xchat. no biggy just curious. | 13:17 |
| Ziroday | pjv: erm me, well I dunno really. I suppose I use vmware more because its meant to be slightly quicker. specifically on windows computers but I could be wrong. Have been meaning to try virtualbox again | 13:18 |

| Arand | Hey all. anybody know how to "install" the kernel 2.6.25, one version later than what's frozen in Hardy. ?? | 13:39 |
| derspankster | david567: look for Compiz in Synaptic | 13:39 |
| ceil420 | david567, just change your Session back to GNOME at the login screen | 13:39 |
| zorros | Is ubuntu the best OS in the world? | 13:39 |
| trident523 | Zacaa: Some people are having some succes... out of the box in 8.04. Just at the wrong resolution. | 13:39 |
| trident523 | zorros: No, god is. >.> | 13:39 |
| sebner | zorros: of course | 13:39 |
| sebner | ^^ | 13:39 |
| ceil420 | zorros, no such thing as an overall "best OS". Ubuntu works for many people, though :) | 13:39 |
| david567 | derspankster: my computer isn't the best, do you think by installing compiz i will be able to get those trasparencys? | 13:39 |
| harfg | ok | 13:39 |
| sebner | is here anybody using vmware 2 beta2? I have problems logging in at the webinterface | 13:39 |
| david567 | ceil420: thanks for the info, i will try it | 13:39 |
| ceil420 | np | 13:40 |
| Zacaa | I haven't seemed to have any sucess with my drivers installation and I've tried so much | 13:40 |
| harfg | i thought the mute would mute it for ices as well but evidently not | 13:40 |
| david567 | ceil420: it should be better for slower computers, right? | 13:40 |
| Zacaa | I don't even know where else to go or what else I could try | 13:40 |
| ceil420 | david567, by the way, Xfce has built-in compositing options for transparency. and yes, Xfce is targeted at older hardware. it runs fine on my p4 1.7ghz/512mb RAM computer | 13:40 |
| derspankster | david567: compiz has it's own set of effects and it requires a fairly fast video card | 13:40 |
| david567 | then i will try to solve my problem with xubuntu | 13:41 |
| Mental_Man | hey ACiiD | 13:41 |
| david567 | ceil420: i can still use thunderbird and all my other programs, right? | 13:41 |
| trident523 | Zacaa: I had to wait for 8.04 to be in it's final stages before I could boo ubuntu on one of my computers. You can keep trying to poke around though... sometimes there is someone with the same idea. Or, maybe try #ubuntu a bit later... you never know. | 13:41 |
| ceil420 | david567, of course. xubuntu just changes the desktop environment: the way things look 'n' feel. all your programs will still run | 13:41 |
| Zacaa | ah yes thank you | 13:42 |
| `mike | is there are any vent clients or ts for linux? | 13:42 |
| rodolf0 | hi folks! | 13:42 |
| Zacaa | I wonder what the problem could be though | 13:42 |
| david567 | ceil420: perfect, because it is instqalling lots of other programs that i'm pretty sure are equivalents of others i already have and am using | 13:42 |
| Zacaa | maybe I should try another distro | 13:42 |
| Zacaa | debian or something? | 13:42 |
| trident523 | `mike: ventrillo? | 13:42 |

| ceil420 | david567, from the menu, Settings > User <something> (i'm using Enlightenment now, but it's the only one that starts with User) | 13:47 |
| IndyGunFreak | filthpig: easiest thing to do is just add the wine repository | 13:47 |

| Astralplaydoh | I'm trying to get Firefox to login to Maximo (some sort of database/work order/inventory system). But it's telling me that I need to install Microsoft Virtual Machine. | 13:48 |
| ceil420 | david567, to change the window manager theme (the titlebar and window borders), it's Settings > Window Manager. also, you can get more themes ("gtk" are for the colour, and "xfwm" are for the titlebar) at http://www.xfce-look.org | 13:48 |
| spuck | having some problems with my ps/2 keyboard, it locks up quite frequently. thankfully not while using it but when i hibernate it sometimes locks up then I reboot and it's still locked up, think I have to cut the power :( really need some help! | 13:48 |
| IndyGunFreak | albech: flicker bug?... i've not experienced any flickering | 13:48 |
| david567 | ceil420: it actually is starting to look pretty good... | 13:49 |
| ceil420 | david567, i like it :) | 13:49 |
| albech | IndyGunFreak: the gfx hangs for 5 sec and after that you get random black frames (flickering) every 10-30 sec | 13:49 |
| Astralplaydoh | It says, Maximo Requires a Java Enabled Browser. Please check your browser settings to ensure that java is not diabled. If you do not have the Microsoft Virtual Machine ...etc etc.... | 13:49 |
| david567 | ceil, what is xfce fro again? gtk 2.x is the theme, xfce? | 13:49 |
| albech | IndyGunFreak: the first hang always happen when scrolling | 13:49 |
| IndyGunFreak | albech: absolutely nothing resembling that here... works perfect. | 13:49 |
| filthpig | IndyGunFreak, yeah, but when the repos don't update fast enough, I'd like to do it myself... | 13:49 |
| PleegWat | hi. I'm trying to get the nvidia binary graphics driver to work, but it won't load | 13:49 |
| IndyGunFreak | filthpig: if you add the wine repository, it should update when wine updates their repository | 13:50 |
| ceil420 | david567, Xfce uses gtk 2.x for the theme and "xfwm" for the window manager style. some themes change the appearance of both | 13:50 |
| cros13 | Astralplaydoh: go to system, administration, synaptic and search for and install java6-jre and java6-plugin | 13:50 |
| david567 | so should i be choosing between xfce or gtk2.x? | 13:50 |
| david567 | ceil420: so should i be choosing between xfce or gtk2.x? | 13:50 |
| Astralplaydoh | I did that, and I think I installed it correctly. | 13:50 |
| albech | did anyone find a solution for the wifi 3945ABG?? | 13:51 |
| ceil420 | david567, oh, yes. been a while since i've been on the site. gtk2.x and Xfce are what you want | 13:51 |
| cros13 | Astralplaydoh: does this issue occur on your windows clients? | 13:51 |
| Astralplaydoh | Nope. It works fine in windows/IE. | 13:51 |
| ceil420 | david567, (the window manager in Xfce is called "xfwm4", and that's the name of the folder within themes to change the window manager appearance) | 13:51 |
| IndyGunFreak | filthpig: i just double checked, i'm using 0.9.6 | 13:52 |
| IndyGunFreak | so the repo should be fine, its always updatwed for me w/o issue. | 13:52 |
| david567 | the folder would be /home/david/.xfwm4 | 13:52 |
| david567 | ? | 13:52 |
| ceil420 | david567, when you save a theme, extract the folder to /home/david/.themes | 13:52 |
| harfg | how can totem get access to the sound card even though ices is using it but xmms can not | 13:52 |

| IndyGunFreak | filthpig: how did you install it? | 13:53 |
| Astralplaydoh | want the link to see if you can get it to go to a login screen? | 13:53 |
| filthpig | repos | 13:53 |
| PleegWat | hi. I'm trying to get the nvidia binary graphics driver to work, but it won't load the kernel module. I'm not getting error messages, so I'm kinda at a loss what I can do now. I had some trouble getting it to work first time round back on feisty too. | 13:53 |
| IndyGunFreak | filthpig: FROM THE WINE REPO or from the ubuntu repo, pay atttention | 13:53 |
| ceil420 | david567, the theme folder will have an "xfwm4" or "gtk2" subfolder inside it, just leave them as they are | 13:53 |
| filthpig | IndyGunFreak, I have the wine one added to my repo list, at least | 13:54 |
| Arand | Anybody know how to "install" the kernel 2.6.25, one version later than what's frozen in Hardy. ?? | 13:54 |
| the_alamo | i have been trouble connecting to gnomes irc channel. maybe i've made an error, what is the official channel for gnome? | 13:54 |
| ceil420 | david567, for example, you might end up with /home/david/.themes/Cadmium/xfwm4 | 13:54 |

| the_alamo | jrib: irc.gimpnet.org? | 13:55 |
| filthpig | IndyGunFreak, have you upgraded to hardy? | 13:55 |
| david567 | ceil420: suggest any themes? what else can i do to make the desktop more friendly? | 13:55 |
| Finnish | Can someone help me with google calendar/conky/python? There are a few commands I don't get | 13:55 |
| IndyGunFreak | filthpig: didn't upgrade, i clean installed, but i've used wine for a while, and i've always gotten regular updates via the wine repo | 13:55 |
| ceil420 | david567, taste is highly individual :p i like bright themes, myself. and what do you mean by 'more friendly'? | 13:55 |
| jrib | the_alamo: irc.gimp.org or irc.gnome.org should both work, I don't know if what you said does | 13:56 |
| filthpig | IndyGunFreak, yeah, but when I checked the wine page they only mention the hardy repo, nada about gutsy | 13:56 |
| the_alamo | jrib, well, my results have been less than fantastic so i will try your suggestions! | 13:57 |
| IndyGunFreak | filthpig: well, i don't know about that, but i did notice that.. maybe they arent supporting old repos anymore.. don't know.. but i noticed that also. | 13:57 |
| rfxcasey | So it there always a guru in here? | 13:57 |

| the_alamo | jrib, those both point me to irc.us.gimp.org which i can never connect to. maybe there is some other reason i can't connect | 13:58 |

| john47 | mut80r: thanks for your thoughts - oh, and I guess changing the default behavior involves changing the fstab, right? | 14:24 |
| mut80r | J1MB0: probably, because the software runs in the MBR so the data would be written encrypted but decrytable. | 14:24 |
| orthodoc | IndyGunFreak: my panels working so i can still access the terminal | 14:24 |
| john47 | mut80r: and that's what's weird about my fstab....*sigh* Thanks for your thoughts. | 14:24 |
| albech | joep: no there are several issues with the nvidia drivers.. i have just discovered an old bug where the screen flicker (black frames) that reappear in 8.04 too | 14:24 |
| nibsa1242b | if a bug is closed in launchpad and I've just encountered it do I report my new encounter as a new bug or just post a comment in the old (closed) bug? | 14:24 |

| IndyGunFreak | orthodoc: then disable awn and restart x and see if its ok | 14:24 |
| mut80r | john47: yes, the only way to take ownership of the partition and retain it on next restart is to edit fstab | 14:25 |
| murre | but something weird happens there.....it says "su: Authentication failure" | 14:25 |
| J1MB0 | Thanks mut80r :-) | 14:25 |

| albech | Led_Zeppelin: Which kind of wifi you have? | 14:28 |
| joep | Well, I think I have to edit xconf manually as apparently ubuntu doesn't fo it for me. I hope they have the modules available. | 14:28 |
| Led_Zeppelin | albech, wifi works perfectly with 7.10. I just want to backup the settings. | 14:28 |

| Traveler54 | why dosent wireless network on ubuntu | 14:29 |
| mut80r | J1MB0: oh I thought you meant FDE that runs in the MBR not in the OS. | 14:29 |
| albech | Led_Zeppelin: they have changed the way some wifis work in 8.04 so its not certain that you can just copy the configuration | 14:29 |
| virtuald | marth: i have that problem too, tried with different cd-drives and burners, but i asumed they were all broken :) i don't need them much anyway :) | 14:29 |

| kevin4381 | ubuntu 8.04 /gnome - I want the scroll wheel on my mouse to function like it does in MS Windows .. .when you press the scroll wheel down, a multi-directional scrolling feature is enabled letting you scroll by moving the mouse (rather than spinning the scroll wheel). anybody know how to do this in ubuntu? | 15:30 |
| linkmaster03 | Ziroday: ok I will try Kooka thank you | 15:30 |

| ubotu | darkart: Welcome to #ubuntu - the Ubuntu support channel. | 15:31 |
| kevin4381 | Ziroday: - yes, but I don't think it is a firefox feature - I think it is a Windows feature -- therefore Gnome feature (?) | 15:31 |

| |Dreams| | thank you | 15:31 |
| phlo | ok thank you | 15:32 |
| kevin4381 | Ziroday: - in windows, the scrolling feature works in firefox, IE, MS Word, etc | 15:32 |
| Lunar_Lamp | CJS3141: try googling for it - often you get a pretty high hit :-) | 15:32 |
| Starnestommy | dimeotane: a tbz is essentially the same as a tar.bz2 | 15:32 |

| |Dreams| | grrr | 15:38 |
| Diedukas | hello every one. | 15:38 |
| Changlin1 | is it a good idea to go straight from feisty to hardy, in a dist-upgrade? | 15:38 |
| |Dreams| | i get this error configure: error: GTK+-2.10 is required to compile aurora | 15:38 |
| Otacon22 | I have a modem working with voice function, and i want to use it to make telephone calls by PC, how can i do? | 15:38 |
| bazhang | Changlin1: cant be done | 15:38 |
| danbhfive | Changlin1: I don't think that will work | 15:38 |
| sixwheel | I will be going back to gusty | 15:38 |
| CJS3141 | sixwheel: For starters you should see if your wireless card is directly supported by Linux: http://linux-wless.passys.nl/ otherwise you'll probably have to use ndiswrapper | 15:38 |
| Myrtti | are there any nice commandline mpd clients around? | 15:39 |
| Changlin1 | it can be done :%s/feisty/hardy/g :P | 15:39 |
| sixwheel | it worked in gusty | 15:39 |
| Myrtti | I can't be bothered with getting up and change the song on my desktop so I ssh'd to it already | 15:39 |
| |Dreams| | can someone tell what the problem is here it says i have to have vers 2.1 + and i do but it gives me configure: error: GTK+-2.10 is required to compile aurora | 15:39 |
| unop | sudo do-release-upgrade does it all for you | 15:39 |
| Ziroday | linkmaster03: good grief, try another scanning app from the repos itself and if that fails then it may be sane | 15:39 |
| CJS3141 | sixwheel: and were you using ndiswrapper or how did you get it to work? | 15:39 |
| linkmaster03 | Ziroday: ok :P | 15:40 |
| Changlin1 | so not a good idea, I have a machine here I never got around to upgrading, and now it is beyond it | 15:40 |
| Starnestommy | |Dreams|: is libgtk2.0-dev installed? | 15:40 |
| LSD|Ninja | danbhfive: nvidia works for me (though I'm using an older driver I think as I only have a GF2MX) and I have a wireless card that works without ndiswrapper (atheros ftw) so I'm fine there. Having to manually fix my hosts list to get sudo working, add a dir for my printer driver and having to put up with a new, broken sharing system isn't cool | 15:40 |
| bazhang | Changlin1: one step is simply not possible--first to gutsy then to hardy | 15:40 |
| Myrtti | |Dreams|: do you have the development packages? | 15:40 |
| |Dreams| | i dnt kno i installed build-essential | 15:40 |
| DShepherd | |Dreams|, you need the dev packages.. | 15:40 |
| ion | bazhang:that one : No HTML format cannot generate a documente | 15:40 |
| Changlin1 | bazhang: really, anyone tried... | 15:41 |
| linkmaster03 | Ziroday: did kooka not work because i'm on GNOME? :P | 15:41 |
| bazhang | ion please pastebin the errors you got when you tried the link I gave you | 15:41 |
| qwerty121 | Hi guys! Haven't installed hardy yet. Can someone tell me whether python comes installed? | 15:41 |
| sixwheel | no nds wrapper it just enabled the firmware and worked | 15:41 |

| Ziroday | linkmaster03: nope, it should work and install the kde dependancies | 15:41 |

| btmonstor | hi guys, when trying to change the appearance to a different theme, i can only click Install/Cancel. where are the other themes installed in the file system so I can find them? | 15:45 |
| ScarFreewill | qwerty121, ERROR 1045 (28000): Access denied for user 'username'@'localhost' (using password: YES) | 15:45 |
| koomber1664 | I've had a look in the system monitor and one of my processors (Dual core) is constantly running at 100%, even with no windows open. Any suggestions as to why? Is this notmal? | 15:45 |
| bazhang | koomber1664: what does top reveal | 15:45 |
| Hssn | when we download a package by Synaptic, where is it saved? | 15:45 |
| qwerty121 | ScarFreewill: oops! i know nothing about that. btw, 1045 is for wrong pass/user, i guess | 15:45 |
| Invisionfree | Ok, I downloaded the Live CD for Ubuntu 8.04 .. And the bar is going back and forth (When it tries to boot) but it isn't doing anything else .. Why? | 15:46 |
| ScarFreewill | qwerty121, I can't even remeber that I had a password on root, so I did: mysql_install_db | 15:46 |
| Starnestommy | Hssn: the package itself is saved in /var/cache/apt/archives/ | 15:46 |
| Myrtti | ScarFreewill: you did replace the username with root? and gave it the mysql root password you set when you installed it? | 15:46 |
| ScarFreewill | aswell as mysqladmin -u root password 'password' | 15:46 |
| ion | bazhang:the mean reason why is because I got some ebooks in that format and I need change it into pdf. | 15:46 |
| koomber1664 | hmm. apparently compiz.real is using it all | 15:46 |
| Alexman | how do you get emarld to work in ubuntu 8? | 15:46 |
| === pushpop- is now known as pushpop | ||
| ScarFreewill | Myrtti, yeah lol forgot to change username, though root didn't work anyways | 15:47 |
| koomber1664 | bazhang: surely compiz.real can't need to use the whole of one processor? Any tipso n isolating the problem? | 15:47 |
| bazhang | ion books? comic books? or what--dont they have pdf's as well? | 15:47 |
| kurtis | does anybody know how I would do this: http://www.csbsju.edu/itservices/knowledgebase/data/windows/homedirectory.htm in ubuntu | 15:48 |
| bazhang | koomber1664: have you got compiz running? try shutting that down to isolate the problem | 15:48 |
| ScarFreewill | qwerty121 if I had to guess it could maybe be some app that messed up my mysql server config? how would I just clear all the settings of mysql like for a clean install | 15:48 |
| qwerty121 | ScarFreewill: it should be: mysql -h localhost -u root -p"yourpasswordwithoutquotes" | 15:48 |
| Hssn | Starnestommy: is it possible to download edbuntu-desktop on my computer and then install it on another computer with no Internet access running ubuntu? | 15:48 |

| ion | bazhang: no few of them I tolked with a friend of mine, and isn't comics... | 15:48 |
| ScarFreewill | because i did apt-get --reinstall install mysql-server-5.0 | 15:48 |
| Starnestommy | Hssn: you would need to download that package's .deb and the packages for anything else that it requires, then put the packages on a cd or dvd | 15:49 |

| DShepherd | Invisionfree, the live cd is slower than an install. | 15:53 |

| jrib | Aranel: if you look at your fstab, you should see the partition for / being referred to with a UUID. That shows you the syntax. To determine the uuid of a partition, you can use the blkid command | 15:57 |

| DShepherd | ohQahTanzinWan, man adduser should give you some more info | 15:57 |
| Aranel | jrib: in my ftab not uuids referred, i'm using /dev/sda1 etc. instead. | 15:57 |
| kurtis | cgillogly, are you using compiz fusion at the moment? | 15:58 |
| Dekkard | I found I had to give myself privaledge to add user under authorizations first | 15:58 |
| ohQahTanzinWan | okay i added the user, now what do i have to do. anything else to be able to log into it when i am in the GUI? | 15:58 |
| jrib | Aranel: instead of /dev/sda1 you would have: UUID=long_string_that_is_the_uuid_for_the_partition | 15:58 |

I can't anymore see the console window when I press CTRL+ALT+F1, it just shows "no signal" on monitor like it's trying to use some unsupported resolution or someting. pressing CTRL+ALt+F7 brings it back to X normally though. Any solutions? | 15:59 |

Am I doing something wrong? I know this is #Ubuntu but #Kubuntu doesn't know! | 15:59 |
| kurtis | cgillogly, uness something changed in hardy, if you're using the fglrx driver for you ati cards that means you have to be using whats called xgl in order to get compiz fusion to work. unfourtunently xgl does not allow for dual monitors if my memory servers me correctly | 16:00 |
| jrib | Aranel: just 'sudo blkid' | 16:00 |
| gwork | ubuntung-pinoy: i had /home/user on nfs, and evolution started like a new install, having forgotten all about my mail, adresses etc. | 16:00 |

| ubuntung-pinoy | Danish989: hav u tried defragmenting ur HD? | 16:01 |
| cgillogly | Radeon 9600 | 16:01 |

| DShepherd | Danish989, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WubiGuide?action=show&redirect=Wubi ---- there's something about Error 15 on that page | 16:02 |
| cgillogly | kurtis, in gutsy i just ran fglrx because i didn't care about having compiz running, but now i wanna use it | 16:02 |
| ubuntung-pinoy | Danish989: read it somewhere... wait | 16:02 |
| sanozuke | does anyone knows the perl irc server | 16:02 |
| === SkyBlader is now known as Skybuntu | ||
| Danish989 | DShepherd: thank you | 16:02 |
| ubuntung-pinoy | Danish989: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/install.exe/Prototype | 16:02 |
| cgillogly | kurtis, i had mergedfb doing the dual monitors in a gutsy setup once on it, but then i just decided to use the flgrx | 16:02 |
| kurtis | cgillogly, hmm, I guess I don't know then | 16:02 |
| dannie | thanks pinoy | 16:02 |
| jrib | sanozuke: there's a #perl irc channel on Freenode. Is that what you want? Just do '/join #perl' | 16:03 |
| koomber1664 | gwork: I do not have a grpahics option under administration | 16:03 |
| Dragnon | anyone know how to install alps touchpad drivers | 16:03 |
| sanozuke | ok | 16:03 |
| amenado | Danish989-> error 15 on grub usually meant it can not find your stage15 files at /boot/grub/ | 16:03 |
| gwork | ubuntung-pinoy: i couldn't get it to work properly, so i added new mapping (imap) and slowly got mail back.. stuff like that. but i need to update another machine. would love this to be done without hassle | 16:03 |
| cgillogly | kurtis, yes, it's got me stumped right now...i guess i can go without compiz and just use fglrx again,but i hate to | 16:03 |
| gwork | koomber1664: it's named screens and graphics | 16:03 |
| ompaul | sanozuke, you can ask in #perl I guess | 16:03 |
| kurtis | cgillogly, well | 16:04 |

| soulrider | guys, where is xorg config done now? /etc/X11/xorg.xonf doesnt ahve all the info it used to ahve, it seems to have been split into several files | 16:09 |
| CJS3141 | sbox: have you tried force mounting the partition? | 16:09 |
| amenado | keymoo-> install ssh on it, and then use scp to secure copy | 16:09 |
| bazhang | locolbd: you have themes you want to install? | 16:09 |
| soulrider | !es | An7onio38 | 16:09 |

| douma | bazhang yes | 16:10 |
| locolbd | yes | 16:10 |
| gwork | keymoo: check out folder sharing | 16:10 |
| amenado | sbox-> whatever the name of your partitions you'd like to mount | 16:10 |
| locolbd | bazhang: Yes | 16:10 |
| CJS3141 | sbox: Here's an example: | 16:10 |

| bazhang | Juan__: that has always been a problematic feature--what laptop make and model | 16:10 |
| zyx386 | everyone??? | 16:10 |
| CJS3141 | sudo mount -t ntfs-3g /dev/hda1 /media/windows -o force | 16:10 |
| Aranel | jrib: thank you :) solved. | 16:10 |
| Juan__ | bazhang: it's on my desktop | 16:10 |
| sbox | amenado: when I try sudo mount /dev/hda4 it states it's not in the /etc/fstab | 16:10 |
| Juan__ | Bazhang: ASUS Nvidia board | 16:10 |
| CJS3141 | sbox: But be sure to the /media/directory is a directory that has been created all ready. | 16:11 |
| sbox | CJS3141: "sudo mount -t ntfs-3g /dev/hda1 /media/windows -o force" | 16:11 |
| amenado | sbox your command of mount /dev/hda4 is inadequate, you must include the mountpoint also | 16:11 |
| bazhang | Juan__: any reason not to just use screensaver? never heard of suspend on a desktop | 16:11 |

| ekim|dt-linux | i've ben using k3b | 16:11 |
| Juan__ | bazhang: The machine powers down, but with a press of a button it pops back to where I was before. | 16:11 |
| sbox | CJS3141: I created the mount point but still gettinmg the input output error | 16:11 |

| bazhang | assid devede might though | 16:14 |
| amenado | Tim1-> well not knowing what dpkg-reconfigure -a (all) do, then liably it can be running initramfs over and over | 16:14 |
| sbox | CJS3141: I shall give it a go, also the error message states I should try chkdsk /f under windows, will the F2 recovery mode in windows xp cd work? | 16:14 |
| Dekkard | does evolution do imap yet? | 16:14 |

| ekim|dt-linux | does anyone have a torrent of the hardy cd ? | 16:14 |

| HiddenWolf | amenado: that is not a solution for my mother ;) | 16:15 |
| bazhang | ekim|dt-linux: the trackers are having a rough time for sure | 16:15 |
| amenado | HiddenWolf-> it does not bother me much, so i didnt have to put it in a rc.local or rc.d | 16:15 |
| albech | looks like some bluetooth problems: http://pastebin.org/32347 | 16:15 |
| albech | could be the reason both wifi and bluetooth mouse doesnt work | 16:15 |
| amenado | HiddenWolf-> then it is your duty to keep your mommy happy, or else you dont get a warm meal | 16:15 |
| Se7h | ubuntung-pinoy the bug is already reported at https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/213308 | 16:15 |

| amenado | keymoo-> scp, or if you have a usb key | 16:16 |

| Tim1 | some one please put me out of my misery. http://pastebin.com/m3e1b4f61 | 16:57 |
| babbage | matt444, worked for me, I just tried it. | 16:57 |
| Techdeck | anyone? | 16:57 |
| woland | yao_ziyuan: doesn't top do the same thing? | 16:57 |
| Techdeck | can't anyone recommend a nice looking mp3 player for linux? | 16:57 |
| rsk | xmms | 16:57 |
| roffe__ | is it possible to use the vnc-program that's provided in 8.04 for viewing a windows with Real vnc? | 16:58 |
| Tim1 | techdeck : songbird | 16:58 |
| bazhang | http://www.ubuntu-unleashed.com/2008/02/howto-install-new-slickness-theme-in.html locolbd please see this | 16:58 |
| mvinibap | someone know how I install the snow package :: | 16:58 |
| Techdeck | I installed xmms2, can't see any nice graphical skins for it, can you recommend one? | 16:58 |
| woland | rsk: i thought xmms was no longer maintained? | 16:58 |
| amenado | praiden-> with dual boot , you can boot to ubuntu okay? but your network was what again? | 16:58 |
| SeddaN | audacious is better then xmms | 16:58 |
| rsk | woland: it is | 16:58 |
| Se7h | amenado at launchpad bug report, one of the 'solutions' found was to take the jumper from the (western digital) hard drive | 16:58 |
| mnemo | Techdeck: exaile is nice if you like that big itunes-style player, and "elisa" is very very very fancy as well | 16:58 |
| Techdeck | SeddaN, is it good looking? | 16:58 |
| amenado | roffe__-> try, no hurt in trying | 16:58 |
| SeddaN | exakt like xmms and winamp | 16:58 |
| gw0rk | how do i enable samba sharing? is there any cmdline tool to set things up? | 16:58 |
| Techdeck | mnemo, is elisa the winamp like? | 16:58 |
| * woland seconds audacious | 16:58 | |
| bazhang | Techdeck: you may wish to try audacious, the successor to xmms | 16:58 |
| SeddaN | black in kde and other color in gnome default i think | 16:58 |
| Techdeck | when I used windows I liked winamp.. | 16:58 |
| mnemo | Techdeck: nah its like fullscreen with 3d animations | 16:59 |
| amenado | Se7h-> possibly, its how you have configured your mobo to boot from which? | 16:59 |
| babbage | I'm running Dapper LTS but it only includes git version 1.1.3. What is the simplest way for me to run git 1.5.x without upgrading much else? | 16:59 |
| SeddaN | yes, install audacious, exactly as winamp | 16:59 |
| Techdeck | ahh cool | 16:59 |
| lamrin | how do i open links directly into xchat? | 16:59 |
| Techdeck | let me try audacious, sounds good | 16:59 |
| praiden | @amenado yeas I can, when I try to connect to my wireless network, it refuses to accept the WEP key, I submit it, close the window, it attempts to connect, fails and asks for it again. I know for a fact I have the correct WEP | 16:59 |
| praiden | *key | 16:59 |
| marx2k | WinAmp used to be ok. now its just bloated commercialware | 16:59 |
| * Techdeck nods | 16:59 | |
| marx2k | VLC++ | 16:59 |
| SeddaN | its good, i had many problems with xmms, this is much better:) | 16:59 |
| Tim1 | any one ? http://pastebin.com/m3e1b4f61 | 16:59 |
| bazhang | lamrin paste them into xchat or launch them from xchat | 16:59 |
| Se7h | amenado 'they' say it's a WesternDigital thing *only* | 16:59 |
| amenado | babbage-> i think you being a user of git is more advance than most here, you'll proly be better finding answers from google | 16:59 |
| roffe__ | amenado: =) sure, but the guy I want to help get annoyed really easy when things don't work asap, so I wanted to be sure... but OK, I'll try :) | 16:59 |
| Jack_Sparrow | babbage have you checked the dapper backports | 16:59 |
| SeddaN | yeah, had ubuntu off and on, can it pretty decent you know, innstallked it on the laptop, cant get online with static ip adresses like i use in my computer, used it before under fc8 and vista. any idea??? | 16:59 |
| Techdeck | audacious looks great! | 17:00 |
| fidelio | hi there. Is the upgrade from 6.06 LTS to HArdy available? | 17:00 |
| floating | amenado: netstat -n --inet --listening --programs | 17:00 |
| SeddaN | it is, no problems with it either:) | 17:00 |
| babbage | Jack_Sparrow, Ah, no, I have not. Where are they? | 17:00 |
| sixwheel | slickness is cool | 17:00 |
| theholyduck | is there any reason the key repeat rate on ubuntu 8.04 is so slow? | 17:00 |
| amenado | praiden-> try to use the command line iwconfig wlan0 key xxxxx or man iwconfig to get exact syntax | 17:00 |
| praiden | ok | 17:00 |
| babbage | theholyduck, no idea, but it should be settable | 17:00 |
| woland | hi. any hints on removing drm from videos on linux? | 17:00 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Tim1 Try adding a description of the problem and not just a link. | 17:00 |
| JJ-UK_TheRealDea | Hello, Kind Souls (was that a major suck-up?). Can anyone help me with a couple of issues, please? One is fixing my display resolution post-8.04 upgrade (which lost the lot!), the other is getting my wireless card working (which never worked). | 17:01 |
| bazhang | woland what drm | 17:01 |
| theholyduck | babbage, i think so too. but i dunno where | 17:01 |
| praiden | ok wlan zero being network SSID? | 17:01 |
| fidelio | sedda: what best way? | 17:01 |
| amenado | floating cool, you found the correct options, i just cant remember all the diff options of thousands of commands | 17:01 |
| floating | amenado: netstat -n --inet --listening --programs gives me 0 0.0.0.0:68 0.0.0.0:* but when i try take one of those udp ports in to this game it says "udp bind" so i cant use this udp ports freely ? | 17:01 |
| babbage | theholyduck, menu item system -> settings -> keyboard | 17:01 |
| Jack_Sparrow | babbage they are repos that you should be able to enable.. let me see something.. just a sec | 17:01 |
| Tim1 | Jack_Sparrow: Im upgrading to feisty and its doing that updating intfrps all the time | 17:01 |
| Techdeck | thanks a lot guys | 17:01 |
| SeddaN | fidelio : what? | 17:01 |
| bazhang | praiden: nay the network card | 17:01 |
| theholyduck | babbage, yeah i found it :P | 17:01 |
| === Dinde is now known as _me | ||
| theholyduck | im not used to a full desktop env :P | 17:01 |
| Tim1 | oops | 17:01 |
| Techdeck | one more question, is NTFS writeable by default now? | 17:01 |
| Techdeck | and is it stable? | 17:01 |
| Tim1 | hardy :) | 17:01 |
| woland | bazhang: unsure, mplayer/mencoder or xine don't tell me | 17:01 |
| amenado | floating if it is already bind'ed no you can not reuse them unless its been released | 17:01 |
| Techdeck | if so, how? :P | 17:01 |
| _moro_bana_ | how do i add an account on command line | 17:01 |
| === _me is now known as Dinde | ||
| Jorophose | Techdeck: Yes, it's included, and should be stable. | 17:01 |
| Tim1 | adduser | 17:01 |
| babbage | theholyduck, sure beats using xset to do it, because if you set the repeat delay too low, you can't undo it :) | 17:02 |
| bazhang | woland: unlikely at best | 17:02 |
| praiden | that maybe my problem, it's a Dell USB wireless adapter that came with my XPS 400 | 17:02 |
| Tim1 | fck sck | 17:02 |
| fidelio | hi there. Is the upgrade from 6.06 LTS to HArdy available? | 17:02 |
| SeaPhor | amenado, hey, finally got wireless working but there are some issues- it keeps loosing its setings? | 17:02 |
| Techdeck | Jorophose, what's the syntax/driver? | 17:02 |
| babbage | _moro_bana_, "man useradd" | 17:02 |
| theholyduck | babbage, :P | 17:02 |
| fidelio | if so, what is the best way? | 17:02 |
| SeddaN | fidelio, thru website easy | 17:02 |
| Techdeck | simply use the ntfs driver? or is there another one? | 17:02 |
| amenado | floating there are 65,000 ports you can use | 17:02 |
| amenado | SeaPhor-> roaming checked? | 17:02 |
| marx2k | fidelo: If youre upgrading, you need to goo from 6.06 to 7.10 to 8.04 | 17:02 |
| === drajen is now known as dri_ | ||
| Jorophose | Techdeck: No idea because I haven't used it myself. It uses FUSE last I checked though, and it's ntfs-3g with a facelift IIRC. | 17:02 |
| Techdeck | ah, thanks! | 17:03 |
| woland | bazhang: you think? i thought half the anti-drm argument was it's easy to circumvent | 17:03 |
| bazhang | http://ubuntu-tutorials.com/2008/04/23/upgrade-ubuntu-606-to-ubuntu-804/ fidelio | 17:03 |
| floating | amenado: i cant control firewall and udp are closed, so i wanted to look open udp ports and the command comes up with 3 udp ports, and they all are binded | 17:03 |
| fidelio | marx...there is a direct upgrade allagely relased on april 24th | 17:03 |
| Mezriss | hi. I've found that whenever I redefine keybindings in nautilus, all changes disappear after restart. can anything be done about that? | 17:03 |
| theholyduck | there we go. | 17:03 |
| fidelio | was wondering if anybody tested | 17:03 |
| SeaPhor | amenado, no,,, i posted whole thing with screen-shots here http://www.wood-bee-co.com/woodbeeco/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=38&Itemid=63 | 17:03 |
| floating | if i choose random port, it gets blocked by the router | 17:03 |
| amenado | Se7h-> play around with those combinations, bios priority, menu.lst and device.map settings | 17:03 |
| bazhang | marx2k: actually that is not correct there is a 1 step from dapper to hardy | 17:03 |
| theholyduck | its just weird that the default was buggy :P | 17:03 |
| JapyDooge | v3ng34nc3, maybe you like #ubuntu-hacking - im trying to set up a new channel there, want to help | 17:03 |
| JapyDooge | ? | 17:03 |
| bazhang | JapyDooge: please dont paste that here | 17:04 |
| Jack_Sparrow | babbage see if this is close http://packages.ubuntu.com/dapper-backports/git-core | 17:04 |
| amenado | floating by virtue of showing up when you scanned, they are used, so you can not reuse them | 17:04 |
| JapyDooge | sorry bazhang :) was saying that so someone | 17:04 |
| Se7h | amenado can you tell why with no jumper (only hd in the system) the system boots fine? | 17:04 |
| Jorophose | For some reason Software Updates (xubuntu 6.06) won't let me upgrade, either to 6.10 or 8.04. The option just isn't there anymore. Anybody have an idea why it isn't working? Added dapper-backports a while ago... | 17:04 |
| [T]-Rex | help | 17:04 |
| sixwheel | seems like wireless got screwed up in 8.4 | 17:04 |
| floating | so i cant scan ports that are opened in the firewall, but are not in use ? | 17:04 |
| B_166-ER-X | ok, so much for an 'upgrade' Neeed serious help...its been 2 days spending several hours on these, and never found a solution. I Have a Graphic problem (nvidia related probably, i cant activate compiz, and when i am able to, i have a black screen after reboot at login screen) and...i have no sound since Hardy. | 17:04 |
| buha | this is starting to get annoying... | 17:04 |
| SeddaN | lol | 17:05 |
| JJ-UK_TheRealDea | Can anyone help me with a couple of issues, please? One is fixing my display resolution post-8.04 upgrade (which lost the lot!), the other is getting my wireless card working (which never worked). | 17:05 |
| floating | amenado: so i cant scan ports that are opened in the firewall, but are not in use ? | 17:05 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Se7h many hard drives are set to master with no jumper | 17:05 |
| amenado | Se7h-> no jumper? usually meant you select the master and the slave? with jumper you select CS ? | 17:05 |
| babbage | Jack_Sparrow, Thanks. | 17:05 |
| [T]-Rex | i just installed ubuntu 8.04 and my computer won't boot up, only way i got into here is i used failsafe terminal to log onto irssi | 17:05 |
| bazhang | http://ubuntu-tutorials.com/2008/04/23/upgrade-ubuntu-606-to-ubuntu-804/ you see this Jorophose | 17:05 |
| Jack_Sparrow | np | 17:05 |
| amenado | floating correct | 17:05 |
| SeddaN | anyone can help me with statis ip adress write to me in priv | 17:05 |
| HiddenWolf | Would it be (easily) possible to run /etc/init.d/networking restart automatically at gnome login? | 17:05 |
| Jack_Sparrow | babbage do you know how to enable backports? | 17:05 |
| _moro_bana_ | babbage: a friend has forgotten his password and login, can i do anything from recovery mode | 17:05 |
| floating | amenado: theres no way of knowing for me other than to ask the admin ? | 17:05 |
| Se7h | Jack_Sparrow and why would it boot fine that way ? | 17:05 |
| * SeddaN will go and try it myself again hehe, peace yall | 17:05 | |
| fidelio | baz: upgrade to hardy: do you know how to check for bios compatibility? | 17:06 |
| nand | B_166-ER-X: for the sound, I recommend you to test to set "Alsa" on the different field in System/Preferences/Sound | 17:06 |
| === chaky_ is now known as chaky | ||
| === SeddaN is now known as SeddaN^Gone | ||
| B_166-ER-X | nand in wich section ? | 17:06 |
| bazhang | fidelio: no idea there; did you read that link? | 17:06 |
| sixwheel | Fix wirless: go back to 7.10 untill the bug is fixed | 17:06 |
| babbage | _moro_bana_, suer. | 17:06 |
| Jorophose | bazhang: I've followed those steps, except for the BIOS update, but nothing is happening as of yet. I tried refreshing UM again, it's currently still scanning for something. | 17:06 |
| AngelaMuller | I want to get back to 7.10 (from hardy), i have the live cd, how should I proceed now? | 17:06 |
| amenado | floating it behooves you to be friendly with the sysadmin, liably if you use another port, it can be ground for dismissal, going around company policies | 17:07 |
| YoBoY | hi | 17:07 |
| jrib | !downgrade | AngelaMuller | 17:07 |
| ubotu | AngelaMuller: Attempting to downgrade to an older Ubuntu version is explicitly not supported, and may break your system. | 17:07 |
| babbage | _moro_bana_, Sure you can. You can boot the recovery disk on his machine? | 17:07 |
| Techdeck | hmmm weird, for some reason I get more volume in windows than in linux, I checked all the mixers, seems everything is up to the max, any thoughts? | 17:07 |
| bazhang | AngelaMuller: boot cd and install over hardy | 17:07 |
| sixwheel | just boot off 7.10 live cd and install | 17:07 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Se7h Many hard drives .. work fine that way... see the side of the hd... no jumper on WD for example means single or master. | 17:07 |
| nand | B_166-ER-X: Just use the "test" button on every test, on the "devices" section | 17:07 |
| fidelio | baz:yes - step 1 says Step 1: It is suggested that you make sure your BIOS is up-to-date before you try such an upgrade. This is based on some changes in the latest kernel releases which can conflict with older BIOS firmware. | 17:07 |
| AngelaMuller | thank you all | 17:07 |
| amenado | SeaPhor-> it does not show roaming box check anymore? | 17:07 |
| sixwheel | I am going back as well | 17:07 |
| Ashfire908 | i'm semi-manually configuring xorg. how do i determine my keyboard type? | 17:07 |
| B_166-ER-X | nand, and what do you mean 'changing' alsa ? to what ? | 17:07 |
| bazhang | fidelio: likely our computers have different bios--best to check your computer manufacturer for that one | 17:07 |
| SeaPhor | amenado, no, i never have been roaming | 17:08 |
| amenado | AngelaMuller-> in behalf of all, you are welcome | 17:08 |
| nand | B_166-ER-X: You may have more luck with "Alsa" than the default | 17:08 |
| Se7h | Jack_Sparrow i know that, i'm asking why would the kernel boot fine that way | 17:08 |
| JJ-UK_TheRealDea | #list | 17:08 |
| _moro_bana_ | babbage; you mean the live disk or booting ubuntu on recovery? | 17:08 |
| YoBoY | where can i find doc to identify an eventual problem with the function "hibernate" on my laptop ? | 17:08 |
| floating | amenado: ok yeah i guess so ^^ i was just thinking that probably there are some udp ports opened for gamers, and i can use them in my game(which i can choose which udp port to take) | 17:08 |
| SeaPhor | amenado, should i be? | 17:08 |
| sixwheel | Live disk booting | 17:08 |
| B_166-ER-X | nand, most were at 'VIA8237' my sound driver | 17:08 |
| sixwheel | back up | 17:08 |
| amenado | SeaPhor-> i dont know about 8.04 yet, too new to observe its perfomance | 17:08 |
| nand | B_166-ER-X: you have differents field like "Sound playback" | 17:08 |
| _moro_bana_ | sixwheel: that for me? | 17:08 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Se7h you need to start from the beginning and ask a complete question, I came in late | 17:08 |
| thomas | I have a screen that should be set to a resolution not listed in the gui settings? Running amd64 Hearty Heron with restricted video drivers. | 17:08 |
| babbage | _moro_bana_, either should be fine. | 17:08 |
| sixwheel | yea | 17:09 |
| nand | B_166-ER-X: which are set to "autodetect" | 17:09 |
| gothicd3vil | hey where i can find programs for ubuntu? | 17:09 |
| mobodo | how do I tell easily if I'm on gutsy/feisty/whatnot? | 17:09 |
| DiDiVp | hi | 17:09 |
| [T]-Rex | has anyone got there ubuntu hardy 8.04 to work? my computer won't load anymore, should i go back to 7.10? | 17:09 |
| Jack_Sparrow | lsb_release -a | 17:09 |
| Jorophose | gothicd3vil: Check with Synaptic. | 17:09 |
| B_166-ER-X | nand, yeah, say that. everything i check is still silent :( | 17:09 |
| _moro_bana_ | babbage: say im on ubuntu recovery, what should i do? | 17:09 |
| Dun | Hello, it seems that my graphic drivers doesn't work. It was okay before my ubuntu update to 8.04. I've tried to install drivers by repository, from the nvidia site, by EnvyNG and nothing work at all. I was trying to remove all drivers and install again and still nothing. Could anyone help me please? | 17:09 |
| Jack_Sparrow | mobodo that was for you | 17:09 |
| nand | B_166-ER-X: try to set "Alsa" instead of "autodetect", and use the test button | 17:09 |
| mobodo | thanks! | 17:09 |
| babbage | _moro_bana_, msg me... | 17:09 |
| sixwheel | Yea I gotta go to set up gusty cause hardy aint so hardy | 17:09 |
| amenado | [T]-Rex-> what did you do? | 17:09 |
| DiDiVp | my hardy is with wifi slow | 17:09 |
| aro | Hardy works perfectly fine for me. | 17:09 |
| DiDiVp | aro, you use wifi | 17:10 |
| DiDiVp | ??? | 17:10 |
| B_166-ER-X | nand Great try. Still silent :/ | 17:10 |
| sixwheel | wireless in hardy? NOT>>>>>>>> | 17:10 |
| aro | DiDiVp, yes. | 17:10 |
| aro | DiDiVp, ndiswrapper worked for my linksys pcmcia card on my laptop. | 17:10 |
| SeaPhor | amenado, well i can be on for 2 minutes or 2hours but looses conn-settings no matter what,, and my laptop thats never had a problem is doing it to, and i upgraded it friday | 17:10 |
| [T]-Rex | i just installed hardy heron with the alternate cd, now my computer won't load, i managed to choose failsafe terminal so i can come in here to get help im using irssi | 17:10 |
| amenado | just my sense of complaints in the past few days, hardy is not any better than gutsy | 17:10 |
| arash | Hi, i want to search with the old searching tool, but only search function I find is the tracker one, is the old method still avaible in Ubuntu 8.04 ? | 17:10 |
| aro | amenado, it's new. | 17:10 |
| aro | amenado, there will be growing pains. | 17:10 |
| B_166-ER-X | !sound | 17:10 |
| ubotu | If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3 | 17:10 |

| nand | DiDiVp: ah, not a rt2500? | 17:12 |
| B_166-ER-X | amenado, nah, its far better than gutsy. with hardy there is no annoyance like 'graphical' compiz, and no sound to distract you from other things. | 17:12 |

| DiDiVp | warmexxus, you don't have ndiswrapper in your ubuntu | 17:25 |
| arash | b166erx - Trust me, it's not wroth trying to fix it manually (you'll unlikely manage to ever). You might try out something called envy, but it's strictly unsupported | 17:25 |

| scheuri | gw0rk: well, a "aptitude search vmware" should search in all the repos I have updated from, right? | 17:30 |
| arash | B166erX: google for envy, and follow the instructions at their web-site, but it'll only fix ur graphic card drivers, you still have sound problem? | 17:30 |
| Jack_Sparrow | rodolfo that only works if apt-get was used to install it... which is why I said good luck.. no easy answer | 17:30 |

| Techdeck | Wyzard, is it hard to apply? | 17:37 |
| kbrosnan | jason_: june maybe, though when it is finished is the current answer | 17:37 |

| jason_ | Mimi, thanks for your help, I think I got the upgrade and never realized it | 17:38 |

| MrJones | I installed Ubuntu 8.04 I have Creative Sound Blaster Live 24Bit Connected through USB to the Laptop. | 17:39 |
| MrJones | I went to sound prefs and set everything for USB Audio. Everything works fine, but the keyboard shortcut to increase and decrease the sound level. It doesnt affect the sound level at all (Even muting). Personally I think it has to deal with something in the sound prefs under default mixer tracks. | 17:39 |

| nemo | Geoffrey2: just has the advantage of people designing sites around it | 17:46 |
| Paddy_EIRE | Geoffrey2: I no longer think the flash menu problem is a problem... try using walmarts site for e.g. | 17:46 |

| nemo | Geoffrey2: I usually run flash block anyway. typically the stuff below the menus is crap :) | 17:47 |
| CaptainMorgan | using 8.04 | 17:47 |
| nemo | Geoffrey2: well. used to run flashblock - noscript these days | 17:47 |
| conan | indygunfreak.. hmm ok .. i'll try a seperate one for now .. do you have any idea what resolution is a 1080p hdtv? | 17:47 |
| sbox | unop: just set it to use the whole disk as standard | 17:47 |
| crashanddie | Bill_MI, FF3 or 2 ? | 17:47 |
| Paddy_EIRE | nemo: or just dont use flash :) | 17:47 |
| RoAkSoAx | ubuntu_ne, that is a nice app for terminal to manage apps in the different runlevels | 17:47 |

| nemo | Paddy_EIRE: trust me. I'm harassing every site with a flash player. | 17:48 |
| sbox | using the standard partitioner | 17:48 |
| Geoffrey2 | Paddy_EIRE: that's the first thing I noticed....that and Firefox no longer crashes with mapping software, which I tend to use a lot | 17:48 |
| Japy|Gaming | ubuntu_ne: at boot time press esc for the Grub-menu, then u can give kernel options | 17:48 |

| Marfi | ty bazhang | 17:48 |

| IndyGunFreak | conan: do you want them as separate displays, or 1 big display? | 17:49 |
| Pitbull_R | again, does anyone know how to access files off a raid0? | 17:49 |
| J_Doe | ygor_abreu, Tried it with Network manager? is your WLAN encrypted? | 17:49 |
| ubuntu_ne | RoakSoak, i can't boot my machine anymore in graphic mode, that's why I'm trying runlevel 3, to recover old Xorg.conf | 17:49 |
| MrKeuner | where is the new trash? | 17:49 |
| nemo | Hey. um. does anyone here mind running: | 17:49 |
| nemo | dpkg -l | awk '{print $2}' | grep compiz | xargs | 17:49 |
| nemo | for me | 17:49 |
| nemo | or something similar? | 17:49 |
| unop | sbox, hmm, that's definitely not normal then - because it shouldnt matter, you could try repairing grub from a live CD/ | 17:49 |
| FloodBot2 | nemo: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 17:49 |
| crashanddie | Bill_MI, maybe I found something | 17:49 |
| nemo | I really do think my compiz is mucked up | 17:49 |
| abey | how to be an ubuntu ambassador? | 17:49 |
| nemo | FloodBot2: you idiot. that wasn't a flood. that was fast typing :-p | 17:49 |
| Bill_MI | crashanddie, I'm listening intently :-) | 17:49 |
| Paddy_EIRE | abey: O_o | 17:49 |
| babbage | nemo, don't use xargs for that. Use fmt. | 17:49 |
| unop | nemo, useless use of xargs | 17:49 |
| nemo | heh | 17:50 |
| nemo | babbage: whatever :-p | 17:50 |
| conan | indygunfreak .. no seperate screens .. next to each other .. | 17:50 |
| crashanddie | nemo, that was useless enter abuse :P | 17:50 |
| _urlwolf | O_0 I cannot mount my home partition (!) | 17:50 |
| bazhang | abey: burn a bunch of ubuntu cds and hand them out | 17:50 |
| nemo | unop: it works, so isn't useless. xargs has implied echo for a reason :D | 17:50 |
| linkmaster03 | How do I run a .java from terminal? | 17:50 |
| J_Doe | _urlwolf, why not? | 17:50 |
| RoAkSoAx | @enter | nemo | 17:50 |
| sbox | unop: basically, i installed ubuntu got a grub 18, reset the bios settings and reinstalled and still had the same problem. I've only ever had this issue before when it was a massive hdd | 17:50 |
| osmosis | what is /dev/mapper/loop0p1 ? is that a ramdisk? | 17:50 |
| Xorothal | guys, I just installed hardy and when I try to play something in amarok, it goes the fisrt ~1 second with the bars moving but no sound, and then freezes so I have to kill it manually | 17:50 |
| Wyzard | linkmaster03: .java is source code; you have to compile it before you can run it | 17:50 |
| conan | indygunfreak .. ok i'll try these settings now .. i'll be right back restarting X .. | 17:50 |
| babbage | nemo, yes, the reason is that it is a POSIX requirement. | 17:50 |
| Wavesonics | hokay. so. i keep using the aticonfig tool to set up dual monitors, but after xorg restarts, the settings don't take | 17:50 |
| IndyGunFreak | conan: i know that.., but do you want 1 desktop, to stretch across both monitors, or 1 desktop on each monitor | 17:50 |
| Pitbull_R | Anyone know how to solve a raid0 issue? | 17:50 |
| nemo | RoAkSoAx: I know on a noisy channel repeated enter isn't a good idea. I just wanted to separate the statement from the request | 17:50 |
| crashanddie | Bill_MI, when the ? is right behind a /, it hangs | 17:51 |
| abey | then i'm an ambassador already | 17:51 |
| _urlwolf | no such device while trying to open /dev/cobd3 | 17:51 |
| nemo | RoAkSoAx: and as usual. we generate more noise discussing it. whatever. | 17:51 |
| ygor_abreu | [J_Doe]: well mate, theres 14 networks here..4 without security..and none of this let me connect..like i said: i tried ndiswrapper..and work fine for me on gutsy and not very well at hardy..but i can install b43-fwcutter directly cuz im not connected..so my friend send me this 2 folders..well..i cant connect :S no way..maybe some files missing? | 17:51 |
| linkmaster03 | Wyzard: How would I do that? Like a normal Ubuntu program or what? | 17:51 |
| crashanddie | Bill_MI, but when there is a file, it doesn't | 17:51 |
| conan | indygunfreak .. 1 desktop each | 17:51 |
| osmosis | what is /dev/mapper/loop0p1 ? is that a ramdisk? | 17:51 |
| sbox | unop: I've not tried the repair as i've just installed twice, do you have any further ideas at all? | 17:51 |
| Wyzard | linkmaster03: You need to have Java installed, first of all | 17:51 |
| Wyzard | linkmaster03: then, man javac | 17:51 |
| IndyGunFreak | conan: ok. | 17:51 |
| crashanddie | Bill_MI, for instance, I can drag to desktop www.test.com/index.php?test | 17:51 |
| ygor_abreu | [J_Doe]: i dont know..maybe to make that work its not only this 2 folders..but some other file(s) somewhere else? | 17:51 |
| J_Doe | ygor try 'iwlist wlan0 scan' | 17:51 |
| === Wakipuff is now known as Kooshipuff | ||
| J_Doe | ygor_abreu, try 'iwlist wlan0 scan' | 17:51 |
| crashanddie | Bill_MI, but I can't drag www.test.com/?test | 17:51 |
| linkmaster03 | Wyzard: Thanks | 17:52 |
| Bill_MI | crashanddie, I also saw that playing around with '%3F" replacing it in the *.desktop. | 17:52 |
| MrKeuner | how is trash handled in new ubuntu? | 17:52 |
| nemo | ok. to babbage, unop and RoAkSoAx and the rest. aside from critiquing my shell oneliner - one of you mind listing your compiz packages? I'm just having weird behaviour here. a standard gnome ubuntu hardy otherwise | 17:52 |
| unop | sbox, if you've tried repairing grub already and this persists, all i can think of is the partition table or disk geometry is fubared. | 17:52 |
| Pitbull_R | Hardware raid0. does anyone know how to access the files off it? | 17:52 |
| mnemo | how can I put a program on "autostart" in ubuntu? | 17:52 |
| gw0rk | scheuri: 8.04 | 17:52 |
| LainIwakura | Hello, I am unable to drag and drop shortcuts into AWN. How do I fix this? Thanks! | 17:52 |
| _urlwolf | J_Doe: no such device while trying to open /dev/cobd3 | 17:52 |
| J_Doe | ygor_abreu, if you get a signal then your WLAN card/stick works! | 17:52 |
| crashanddie | mnemo, system -> preferences -> sessions | 17:52 |
| Xorothal | guys, when I try to play something in amarok, it goes the fisrt ~1 second with the bars moving but no sound, and then freezes so I have to kill it manually | 17:52 |
| CaptainMorgan | how can we get Places > Connect to Servers to reconnect upon startup like other earlier versions ? | 17:52 |
| CaptainMorgan | using 8.04 | 17:52 |
| unop | nemo, i hate compiz with a passion :) s | 17:52 |
| sbox | unop: does that mean it's fatel? thing is i've tried installing it on the same hdd but on a different machine and it was fine | 17:52 |
| sbox | also an old 400mhz thing | 17:52 |
| Bill_MI | crashanddie, making the link works perfectly. Launching it fails. Old and new links. My best example is any forum message. | 17:52 |
| nemo | unop: fine. someone *else* running gnome + compiz :-p | 17:52 |
| babbage | Xorothal, can you use other programs to play longer things? | 17:53 |
| CaptainMorgan | unop, minimal compiz is alright | 17:53 |
| crashanddie | Bill_MI, I dunno... | 17:53 |
| RoAkSoAx | nemo, the onli extra package for compiz in compizconfig-settings-manager ... all of the others are included by default... | 17:53 |
| ygor_abreu | [J_Doe]: done that already..i found a lot of options.. | 17:53 |
| Wyzard | Pitbull_R: plug it into the RAID controller and you should be able to access the data normally | 17:53 |
| Xorothal | babbage: yes, rhythmbox works fine | 17:53 |
| crashanddie | Bill_MI, check the syntax handler for URLs | 17:53 |
| maynards-girl | is 8.04 server strictly CLI? i thought it had x-server | 17:53 |
| unop | CaptainMorgan, i'm not for any kind of effects at all .. it's real simplicity for me | 17:53 |
| J_Doe | ygor_abreu, did u use networkmanager under gnome? | 17:53 |
| bazhang | maynards-girl: aye | 17:53 |
| crashanddie | maynards-girl, you can install xorg | 17:53 |
| ygor_abreu | [J_Doe]: but right now im on windows.. | 17:53 |
| Bill_MI | crashanddie, where will I find the handler? | 17:53 |
| Mimi | unop: messages running too fast for me... are you the one who needs the list of compiz apps? | 17:53 |
| J_Doe | _urlwolf, why is your home partition at /dev/cobd3 ?? | 17:53 |
| _urlwolf | yes | 17:53 |
| J_Doe | _urlwolf, have u checked your /etc/fstab? | 17:53 |
| nemo | RoAkSoAx: hrm. have 13 compiz packages, including ccsm - so that's normal... | 17:53 |
| nemo | wonder what the issue is then. | 17:53 |
| Wavesonics | anyone know why xorg wouldn't be taking it's new settings after restarting it? | 17:54 |
| Wyzard | maynards-girl: afaik, Ubuntu "server" is basically just Ubuntu "desktop" without the GUI stuff installed by default | 17:54 |
| * nemo pokes at the plugins | 17:54 | |
| lowlux | do i need the power manager daemon starting up when i am on a desktop? | 17:54 |

| === slack_ is now known as SouthAmerican | ||
| Xorothal | babbage: ? | 17:54 |
| unop | sbox, well, what i would do is backup everything to another drive .. wipe the partition table clean, recreate / and swap and then restore | 17:54 |
| Wyzard | maynards-girl: You can still install the GUI stuff yourself if you want to, of course | 17:54 |
| J_Doe | ygor_abreu, well once u r under linux again, just login and use networkmanager | 17:54 |
| bmk789_ | where do i get the ubuntu DVDs? | 17:54 |
| Bill_MI | crashanddie, I will. Thanks! | 17:54 |
| RoAkSoAx | nemo, yeah.. it is normal... maybe a missconfig or a bug... | 17:54 |
| maynards-girl | wyzard, thanks. that's what i needed to know | 17:54 |
| unop | Mimi, no, not me, it was someone else | 17:54 |

| Bill_MI | crashanddie, thanks for the help. | 17:54 |
| CaptainMorgan | unop, I'm that way too... but so far it's not causing any problems with my system... - when it causes problems, like in earlier distros, I turned it off and forgot about it | 17:54 |
| bmk789_ | bazhang: i cant find the DVDs there | 17:54 |
| _urlwolf | J_Doe: that's correct | 17:54 |
| crashanddie | Bill_MI, sorry I can't help you further | 17:54 |
| Wyzard | lowlux: perhaps not, but it can be useful... if you have a supported UPS, for example, it can show the UPS's battery level | 17:54 |

| J_Doe | ygor_abreu, but there are many guides on the internet. I used to have that same WLAN device in one of my laptops. just follow the guides, its pretty easy | 17:56 |
| nemo | RoAkSoAx: basically openoffice has been repeatedly freezing up X (not whole machine fortunately) when running it in compiz - usually if I've left some dialog open - like file open. this happens even when running openoffice off a remote machine, which is odd (ssh -YC) | 17:56 |
| mdgeorge | Flannel: I'll do that. brb | 17:56 |

| MrKeuner | Jack_Sparrow: it is storing the path it has deleted it from and the time it has deleted it | 17:59 |
| ffm | Flannel, Depends: python-abiword (>=0.6) but it is not installable | 17:59 |
| Wyzard | Techdeck: The problem is that it's using a version of libgcc_s.so provided by VMware itself, but a copy of libstdc++ provided by Ubuntu, and the former is too old for the latter | 17:59 |
| mdgeorge | I'm doing everything on the virtual console, because I can't log in btw | 17:59 |
| Jack_Sparrow | MrKeuner good to know | 17:59 |
| linkmaster03 | Thanks ffm and CaptainMorgan | 17:59 |
| MrKeuner | Jack_Sparrow: possibly for "Undo" purposes? | 17:59 |
| Flannel | ffm: What areyou trying to do? remove what? and what isn't being removed like you think it ought to be? | 18:00 |
| vargadanis | anybody could help me out with C and pthreads? pm | 18:00 |
| Jack_Sparrow | MrKeuner that would be my thought | 18:00 |
| Techdeck | Wyzard, damn :( | 18:00 |
| Wyzard | Techdeck: VMware ships a bunch of bundled libraries to try to be independent of the library versions on the system where it's installed, but apparently that's not working quite right in this case | 18:00 |
| unop | vargadanis, #c | 18:00 |
| vargadanis | sharp is no good | 18:00 |
| ffm | Flannel, There is a package, sugar-write-activity, that cannot be installed in hardy. Why is it in the repos if it is unusable? | 18:00 |
| vargadanis | thanx though | 18:00 |
| mdgeorge | flannel: it also couldn't mount my filesystems (including home...scary at first) but I relpaced the UUID's with /dev/hd's and it worked | 18:00 |
| CaptainMorgan | vargadanis, the channel ##C | 18:00 |
| unop | vargadanis, i mean head to that channel | 18:00 |
| Xorothal | CaptainMorgan: works in gxine, and amarok is using xine engine | 18:00 |
| vargadanis | sweet | 18:00 |
| vargadanis | thanx | 18:00 |
| Wyzard | Techdeck: The VMware support forums would be the best place to look for info on that | 18:00 |
| vargadanis | i joing the channel | 18:01 |
| mdgeorge | flannel: in /etc/fstab that is | 18:01 |
| Flannel | ffm: Ah, you're trying to install, not remove. Let me take a look | 18:01 |
| abey | /whois abey | 18:01 |
| gnubuntu | :-) | 18:01 |
| Techdeck | thanks Wyzard, I'll look into it | 18:01 |
| EskimoBOB | vargadanis pm | 18:01 |
| mcscruff | lo all | 18:01 |
| ffm | Flannel, Thank you. | 18:01 |
| CaptainMorgan | Xorothal, wish I could assist.... I think Amarok is not in the standard pacakages too... Rythmbox is and works for me ;) | 18:02 |
| mcscruff | is it recommended to do a clean install for this LTS | 18:02 |
| conan | indygunfreak.. it seems to be working fine .. but the question now is how can i move windows there ? | 18:02 |
| enfefi | Hi everyone!! I'm getting a bug just before the splash image. The message says: "MP-BIOS bug: 8254 timer not connected to IO-APIC". I edited the boot parameters on grub adding noapic at the end of the line and the message didn't appear anymore but at the login screen the drum sound became "weird". Is there any other solution to fix this?? | 18:02 |
| ffm | mcscruff, They always work the best. | 18:02 |
| crashanddie | mcscruff, o rly ? | 18:02 |
| Flannel | ffm: You're right, it is. I have no idea why, you should ask in #ubuntu-motu, and/or file a bug at launchpad | 18:02 |
| * Wyzard prefers quodlibet over rhythmbox | 18:02 | |
| ffm | mcscruff, If you have community supported software installed, we cannot guarantee that the update will work well. | 18:02 |
| IndyGunFreak | conan: if you have them set up as separate displays, you can't | 18:02 |
| mcscruff | ffm, time for the clean install then :) | 18:03 |
| Techdeck | Wyzard, ! | 18:03 |
| Techdeck | hah! I tricked it! | 18:03 |
| Techdeck | sudo ln -s /lib/libgcc_s.so.1 /usr/lib/vmware/lib/libgcc_s.so.1/libgcc_s.so.1 | 18:03 |
| Techdeck | for the win! | 18:03 |
| Flannel | mcscruff, ffm, that's not true. Universe installs fine, it's third party stuff that could cause problems | 18:03 |
| mdgeorge | can anyone recommend a cli irc client? I usually just use gaim, but that fails when my system gets hosed | 18:03 |
| * Mimi asks: Does installing the powerpoint viewer from add/remove install the Vista fonts? | 18:03 | |
| Flannel | mdgeorge: irssi | 18:03 |
| mdgeorge | I'm using ircii now | 18:03 |
| CaptainMorgan | mcscruff, happy installing, I did mine yesterday and all went smooth- minus the minor bugs that are present and tolerable | 18:03 |
| conan | indygunfreak.. ok i just want to watch my movies on hdtv .. | 18:03 |
| ffm | Flannel, Well, you won't get support for it by canonical. | 18:03 |
| CaptainMorgan | for now | 18:03 |
| masmota | mdgeorge:irssi | 18:03 |
| EskimoBOB | anyone have a solution to get the broadcom wireless card working on hardy? | 18:03 |
| skenmy|neuron | Hey all. I'm unable to ping my Ubuntu machine's hostname from any other machine on the network. Is there any reason for this happening? | 18:03 |
| Wyzard | Techdeck: nifty, though personally I'd check the support forums anyway for a less-klugey solution | 18:03 |
| IndyGunFreak | conan: then you would open the movies on the hdtv ... | 18:03 |
| Flannel | ffm: You never would, but the upgrade works fine with it. | 18:03 |
| Techdeck | Wyzard, will do, thanks a lot for your help! | 18:03 |
| ffm | mcscruff, It works for me, but some have issues. | 18:03 |
| conan | indygunfreak.. there's nothing but the wallpaper ther .. how can i do that ?? | 18:04 |
| ffm | Flannel, I installed a package in gutsy from the repos on a newly installed gutsy machine. I then updated, and the update froze in the middle. | 18:04 |
| IndyGunFreak | conan: add a panel there, and put a menu on it. | 18:04 |
| dave_h_d | is yum better than apt-get? | 18:04 |
| ffm | Flannel, see Bug #218492 | 18:05 |
| mcscruff | ffm, Flannel, i'll try the update will only take a few seconds to d/l and if it goes wrong then fresh install | 18:05 |
| ffm | dave_h_d, No. | 18:05 |
| IndyGunFreak | dave_h_d: not in a gazillion years | 18:05 |
| Scunizi | I did the default FTP server install with hardy server, which turns out to be lftp. I can attempt login on my lan but don't have a uname and pass setup for access. Any clues anyone? | 18:05 |
| masmota | lol | 18:05 |
| theone_ | dav | 18:05 |
| conan | indygunfreak.. ok .. haven't thought of it :P | 18:05 |
| ffm | dave_h_d, Yum is very poorly written, and doesn't manage DEBs. | 18:05 |
| maek | nah apt_get is the best | 18:05 |
| IndyGunFreak | conan: :) | 18:05 |
| ffm | maek, aptitude ftw! | 18:05 |
| grick | hi people, someone can tell me where i can find the "change pitch" effect within the new audacity (1.3.4-beta) that ship with hardy heron? | 18:05 |
| dave_h_d | can i install something like ntsysv on ubuntu? | 18:05 |
| B166erX | ok, my problem is getting easier to fix i guess (STILL NEED HELP) : I had no sound. I pluged me speakers in the 'onboard' sound ..and now i have System sounds but no audio from Players ect.. (i want to have audio everywhere...AND that it'll be on my sound card) 'how' ? | 18:05 |
| amenado | dave_h_d-> what does ntsysv do? | 18:06 |
| FG|krosan | hi, I'm experiencing some problems with connecting to internet with my Feisty ubuntu. My provider supplies me a dynamic ip address, and in my router i have defined a static ip for my own pc. I have entered in the network GUI tool my static IP, netmask, std gateway, and 2 DNS ips just like in windows. This doesn't work though, while it works perfectly in windows. I have checked my interfaces file, and everything looks ok, with only eth0 defined. | 18:06 |
| dave_h_d | also can i install service program on ubuntu as in service httpd start | 18:06 |
| theone_ | dave_h_d, yum follows in the footsteps of apt and doesn't compare. | 18:06 |
| ffm | Flannel, By the way, would you be willing to confirm https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/sugar-write-activity/+bug/219358 since you've already gotten the same results as I? | 18:06 |
| dave_h_d | theone_ cheers | 18:06 |
| B166erX | !sound | 18:06 |

| Michael___ | i have the drivers for my wireless card (BCM4306) but it wont work without the firmware, how do i fix this? | 18:09 |
| CaptainMorgan | dave_h_d, you can use apache and it would sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 start ..... | 18:09 |
| ffm | dave_h_d, use either "sudo /etc/init.d/apache start" or "sudo invoke-rc.d apache start" | 18:09 |
| ubuntu | :) | 18:10 |
| theone_ | does anyone know if ufw makes firestarter redundant? i'm still using firestarter since I'm familiar with it. | 18:10 |
| ffm | dave_h_d, they behave the same. If you want you can even add an alias from "sudo invoke-rc.d" to "service" | 18:10 |
| CJS3141 | FG|krosan: So what kind of errors are you getting? What is your output from ifconfig and iwconfig? You can pastebin them for everyone to see. | 18:10 |
| ubuntu | jest ktos z Polski?:> | 18:10 |

| SeaPhor | Jack_Sparrow, Thanks! :-)) | 18:17 |
| FG|krosan | i did have it working CJS3141 but back then it was the same problem, something similar, and i looked into the interfaces file, and somehow there was something too much there, like a typo, and after removing that, it worked. Perhaps it was the DNS ips that i added in that file. | 18:17 |
| CaptainMorgan | AngelaMuller, why do you want to do that ? | 18:17 |

| Bravewolf | Hello all! I'm now on Ubuntu 8.04 amd64 LiveCD. My graphic card is nVidia 8600. Why "Hardware Drivers" doesn't display me the possibility to install a proprietary driver? Is it possible only in the installed version and not in the LiveCD? In the xorg.conf there isn't any reference to a video driver. | 18:17 |
| abey | :) | 18:17 |
| RedCell | Patrik: I actually found the solution, I had to change the device on the sound applet and raise the mic volume all the way, not sure why it doesn't work in the Recording tab | 18:17 |
| CaptainMorgan | AngelaMuller, reburn it at a slower speed | 18:17 |
| dont_buy_fur | ok. who here has a wireless nic what worked 'out of the box', pci, ubuntu 8.04? | 18:17 |

| CaptainMorgan | !ask | 18:19 |
| ubotu | Please don't ask to ask a question, ask the question (all on ONE line, so others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely answer. :-) | 18:19 |
| akincer | BraveWolf: I believe they are installed by default in Hardy, but don't quote me on that | 18:19 |
| Wyzard | mcscruff: then you're using HTTP (but you don't have much choice in that case) | 18:20 |
| CJS3141 | pantaloon: I don't know what everyone else's experience is, but I personally had to step back and install 1.2.6 version since I had problems with the latest beta crashing. | 18:20 |
| IndyGunFreak | mcscruff: you can torrent in the alt. install cd, and upgrade off of it. | 18:20 |
| yedday | this was so clear... after upgrading 7.10 to 8.04 everything got messed up: I have no more wireless interface... sudo doesn't recognise my hostname *rofl ... | 18:20 |
| CJS3141 | FG|krosan: Did you change any settings with your router? | 18:20 |

| HiddenWolf | yedday: at least you're not the only one... | 18:21 |
| Bravewolf | another question: is it possibile to install the amd64 on a i386 version WITHOUT destroying datas? | 18:21 |

| absnt | amenado: the reason I dont want to use cut for removing the window or len is because right before that it lists a IP and if I put a cut -c -n in there then it might cut off some part of the ip because its length can vary | 18:28 |

| redheat | is anyone following me | 18:28 |
| crashanddie | dont_buy_fur, downloading around 5MB/s | 18:28 |

| frascel | but no firmware | 18:28 |
| yedday | Wyzard: no, only 22 and 24 can't be installed because dependency issue! | 18:28 |
| akincer | redheat: I have never had much luck getting WPA working on Linux. But that doesn't mean you can't | 18:28 |
| frascel | which is my problem | 18:28 |
| amenado | absnt okay, maybe you can also use combo with awk to remove last field | 18:28 |
| absnt | amenado: if you use that command in a term though, it works and returns exactly what I want lol | 18:28 |
| Wyzard | yedday: What dependency issue? | 18:28 |
| Derspankster | redheat: yes, enter your routers access key | 18:28 |
| dont_buy_fur | crashanddie: doesnt drop occasionally? what card do you have? did it work automatically or did you have to make some changes here adn there? | 18:28 |

| CaptainMorgan | redheat, be concise and stick to ONE line, have you noticed the lines are flying by? tough to pay attention to 7 or 8 lines that are scattered | 18:29 |
| redheat | there's nothing wrong with the driver..and everything should work fine.. | 18:29 |
| redheat | ok | 18:29 |
| akincer | redheat: I should say it was at least a two Ubuntu versions ago when I tried connecting to a WPA network and it didn't work. | 18:29 |
| absnt | amenado: uhm.. it like.. displays stuff on your screen, like in the background | 18:29 |

| CaptainMorgan | witless, I don't remember talking to you.. please repeat | 18:33 |
| witless | i'm using WAP2 | 18:33 |
| redheat | skycrane, I 'm not using WEP I'm using WPA..and it uses a personal key | 18:33 |
| Wyzard | skycrane: That's much less secure | 18:33 |

| redheat | witless WPA2 you mean | 18:33 |
| akincer | IndyGunFreak: No, I was just providing historical pain reference for redheat | 18:33 |
| witless | CaptainMorgan: you were talking to redheat re: wireless | 18:33 |
| theone_ | the thing about WEP is that it is not secure at all. it is easily cracked by script kiddies. | 18:33 |

| Wyzard | ubunie1: never heard of a way to do that though | 18:35 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Wyzard Can you explain why a mac filter would be any less secure? | 18:35 |
| crashanddie | L-A, also, you should try to get the library (probably through sudo apt-get install xmms-dev or something alike) before compiling | 18:35 |
| Wyzard | Jack_Sparrow: MAC addresses can be spoofed | 18:35 |
| hypercool | (does anyone know if the hardware power switches for laptop wireless cards are functional? The light that suggests that the card is active stays red regardless of the switch position, but other buttons such as "mute" do change color correctly.) Also, if there is a more appropriate room for this feel free to redirect me | 18:35 |
| redheat | hey Jack_sparrow.. | 18:35 |
| redheat | how are you | 18:35 |
| akincer | Redheat and Witless: Please try the basics first. Can you connect if your AP is unsecured? How about with WEP? | 18:35 |
| CaptainMorgan | amenado, check the launch commands in the menu | 18:35 |
| crashanddie | Jack_Sparrow, illusion of security. Mac filters haven't been considered security for ages, still, people use it | 18:35 |
| witless | akincer: i will try | 18:35 |
| === evil is now known as netpirate | ||
| Wyzard | Jack_Sparrow: An attacker who sees your computer transmit a packet over the wireless knows your MAC address, and can clone it and use your network | 18:35 |
| yedday | Wyzard: what the... there are still all the gutsy repos in my list! shouldn't be that all hardy after the upgrade! | 18:35 |
| yedday | ? | 18:35 |
| redheat | we haven't tried that.. | 18:35 |
| redheat | at least me.. | 18:35 |
| Bill_MI | crashanddie: I'm worried it's buried deep in the system for character acceptance. A nasty killer for my research precess . :-( | 18:35 |
| dotech | hypercool: that switch should disable the radio without any software required | 18:35 |
| frascel | mac filters make it easier to be hacked | 18:35 |
| amenado | CaptainMorgan-> me? | 18:35 |
| CJS3141 | FG|krosan: OK, well try enabling DHCP on your router, and try connecting. | 18:35 |
| Dvyjones | I am trying to install bcm4306 drivers on ubuntu hardy, but when i used ndiswrapper, the network card keeps deactivating itself, i can activate it, but when i close network-manager and open it again, its deactivated. In roaming mode its activated, but wont find any networks | 18:36 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Wyzard would they not need physical access to find your mac address? | 18:36 |
| crashanddie | Bill_MI, hang on, trying something | 18:36 |
| Derspankster | reheat: take and try the suggested | 18:36 |
| redheat | but wait, if it detects the wireless networks, then there's no firmware or driver problems.. | 18:36 |
| Wyzard | Jack_Sparrow: No, it's in every packet you transmit over the air | 18:36 |
| crashanddie | Jack_Sparrow, because MAC addresses are sent in clear over wifi networks | 18:36 |
| FG|krosan | dotech & CJS3141 the ip of my modem is: http://192.168.1.1/ (mistake, my bad) | 18:36 |
| Bill_MI | crashanddie: Thanks | 18:36 |
| frascel | it doesnt for me | 18:36 |
| akincer | MAC addresses are not useful as a security measure. Period. | 18:36 |
| Jack_Sparrow | thanks | 18:36 |
| masmota | i dont need any restrictions.. is there a way to disable or auto-grant a user for policykit? | 18:36 |
| hypercool | dotech: so the fact that it's red no matter what suggests that the radio is off all the time? | 18:36 |
| redheat | the problem is it cannot log me into my network, no matter how many times I enter the personal key | 18:36 |
| |Torg| | how can I determine what happend to the memory in my systems, free reports far less then what is physically seen by bios and is inconsitant across platforms, two systems 4G each, one shows ~3G the other ~2.5 | 18:36 |
| Tyczek | Finish Him! .:Kombinacja fatality jest wÅaÅnie wstukiwana przez |Torg|:. | 18:36 |

| J-Unit | does hardy have the cube out of the box? | 18:36 |
| CaptainMorgan | RITN, check the launch commands in the menu | 18:36 |
| Wyzard | redheat: Are you sure your wireless device actually supports WPA2? | 18:36 |
| CaptainMorgan | sorry amenado :( | 18:36 |
| redheat | mac filter or address won't do anything.. | 18:36 |
| masmota | j-unit the plugin is there but u have to enable it | 18:37 |
| FG|krosan | dotech & CJS3141 te problem is that my modem has a dhcp enabled, and if i enable dhcp on my router, it crashes | 18:37 |
| ubunie1 | crap that might mean I have to write one, if the the forums don't help | 18:37 |
| amenado | CaptainMorgan-> no problem, this channel is going too fast :P | 18:37 |
| hypercool | dotech: or is the color just reflective of some software driver thing? | 18:37 |
| dotech | hypercool: that i couldn't tell you for sure, but with the switch off it is definitely disabled via hardware | 18:37 |
| redheat | nothing if blocking us from getting into the network..the problem is simple, WPA key, network.. | 18:37 |
| hypercool | dotech: alright thanks | 18:37 |

| AnnaX | I tried installing hardy heron on my macbook pro (from gutsy) and now GNOME doesn't load | 19:03 |
| FG|krosan | hey | 19:03 |
| CloudFX | Cheeseweasel: you will need to reinstall GRUB | 19:03 |
| Arnos | Wyzard : Thanks | 19:03 |
| [T]-Rex | annaX i am having the exact same problem | 19:03 |
| mnemo | can I resize a virtualbox image to make it bigger? | 19:03 |
| Cheeseweasel | CloudFX: How can I do that? | 19:03 |
| FG|krosan | amenado i still have to reboot, i was eating | 19:03 |

| AnnaX | when I start my computer, I press escape and go into recovery mode | 19:04 |
| Ashfire908 | what's the name of the compiz config program? | 19:04 |
| Wyzard | _moro_bana_: Caveat: I've done this in Debian and I know it works fine there, and I *assume* Ubuntu's mkinitramfs supports encrypted root filesystems like Debian's does; I don't know for certain | 19:04 |
| CloudFX | Cheeseweasel: getting u the wiki page now. | 19:04 |
| AnnaX | all of my files are still there and I can do most things throgh the command line, but I'd really like to have GNOME back | 19:04 |
| AnnaX | T-Rex, what have you tried doing? | 19:04 |
| starked | Could anyone help me get my wireless working with Hardy? I have an Inspiron e1505, and my old method of using ndiswrapper no longer works, apparently. | 19:04 |
| redheat | it says these messages consecutively..job 'cron.weekly' started, and then job 'cron.daily' terminated | 19:04 |
| AnnaX | I was thinking of putting a liveCD in, and seeing what that will do | 19:04 |
| redheat | and then restard message | 19:04 |
| Wyzard | cpu: There's nothing different about USB 2.x cables compared to USB 1.x cables | 19:05 |
| [T]-Rex | i did that, theres not much in there to fix it | 19:05 |
| Wyzard | cpu: Poorly-made USB cables might not work reliably at 2.x speeds, but most should be fine | 19:05 |

| akincer | mobodo: You can use them as reference to how you _might_ solve a problem | 19:06 |
| Wyzard | _moro_bana_: oh, and you'll need a separate non-encrypted partition for /boot | 19:06 |
| cpu | Wyzard ... ahh ok .. cuz I thought that it comes customized in the wires for high data transfer mode more than usb 1 cable to manage the transfer for usb2 !! | 19:06 |

| arc_shmoo | why is there no restricted driver listed for my proset wireless under 8.04 as in 7.10 | 19:06 |
| Wyzard | _moro_bana_: Also look into swapspace encryption -- you can have your swap encrypted with a key that's chosen randomly (from /dev/random) during startup, so after you shutdown the key is gone from RAM and the swap contents can't be recovered | 19:07 |
| hypercool | not sure what just happened here. I was searching for wireless connections and all of my network adapters disabled themselves. They were in "roaming" before which i think is where i want to be. What's the easiest way to get them back? | 19:07 |

| tom540 | Hi. I just installed Ubuntu 8.04.. Flash sound in Firefox is not working. Worked in 7.10. Ubuntuforums mostly links to older articles(pre 2007) that do not have a solution. Anyone know anything about a new bug or something? | 19:07 |
| ed_ed | Hi all, does anyone know anyways to speed up start up with ubuntu 8? | 19:07 |
| crashanddie | Bill_MI, so it would appear that is the gnome .desktop file handler that has a bug | 19:07 |
| crashanddie | ed_ed, remove random stuff in /usr/local | 19:07 |
| AnnaX | T-Rex, when you go into failsafe does it say you are using Ubuntu 7.04 or 8.04? | 19:08 |
| Malaz | sohol I think the GNOME chess 2.22 just added network play functionality. Try that. | 19:08 |
| _moro_bana_ | Wyzard: got that, have you ever used suse | 19:08 |

| [T]-Rex | it doesn't go any further than that | 19:08 |
| AnnaX | oh? | 19:08 |
| [T]-Rex | so i'm not sure | 19:08 |
| Bill_MI | crashanddie: Understood. Gnome is new in Hardy, right? | 19:09 |
| [T]-Rex | after i type in my username and password it doesn't move | 19:09 |
| Wyzard | _moro_bana_: I've installed it and poked around a bit, but never used it for anything significant | 19:09 |
| Bill_MI | crashanddie: I mean a new version | 19:09 |
| Wyzard | _moro_bana_: I didn't really like it much, though, from what I saw of it | 19:09 |
| AnnaX | that's weird | 19:09 |
| crashanddie | Bill_MI, yeah, gnome 2.22 or something like that | 19:09 |
| redheat | Wyzard, I have a question, during the initial installation when we're asked to import settings from vista, oh by the way I have a triple boot, windows xp pro, windows vista business and of course hardy heron..does it import any hardware settings...passphrases or something like that.. | 19:09 |

| soho | hello, which game should i take to play chess over lan? | 19:09 |
| crashanddie | Bill_MI, 2.22.1 (see gnome-about) | 19:09 |
| Malaz | Arnos, you could try xubuntu... it's pretty light. If you want to stick with ubuntu but need something lighter, fluxbuntu is *very* nice. However, something like Damn Small Linux or Puppy would probably be better for a low power comp. | 19:10 |
| absnt | tormod: I think my known_hosts file got deleted, its empty, do I need to reconfigure ssh or something like that? | 19:10 |
| AnnaX | what I've been doing is selecting "recovery mode" | 19:10 |
| Malaz | soho: I think the GNOME chess 2.22 just added network play functionality. Try that. | 19:10 |

| [T]-Rex | yeah i've been there too, but i'm not good with command stuff | 19:10 |
| absnt | tormod: then it is working, i am able to connect and log in | 19:10 |

| stippi | hi, I changed my fs from ext3 to reiserfs (made a tar archive of the entire contents of my partition and played that back after reformatting the partition) Now it looks like grub cannot access this partition (Error 17). When I boot from the LiveCD, mount the partition in /mnt/ubuntu, chroot /mnt/ubuntu, grub-install /dev/sda says "Not found or not a block device". Can someone help? | 19:28 |
| Malaz | Ashfire: Yeah, only in the US and canada, etc. | 19:28 |
| TheCobra | Only got a resolution of 800 x 600 | 19:28 |

| Ashfire908 | leachim6, the menu item is gone, you have to manually run the command | 19:29 |
| leachim6 | Malaz, no , I need to change my graphics driver ... | 19:29 |
| leachim6 | Ashfire908, what is the command ? | 19:29 |
| leachim6 | i've only ever run it from the menu | 19:29 |
| Malaz | agatha: Open the update manager and click the "upgrade to 8.04" button. The install will take about 500MB of downloads. | 19:29 |
| SeaPhor | CJS3141, it will lose the setting and the connection, and i have to go in and unlock, open properties, delete the passkey and put in the passke and save, then it re-initializes and connects back to the net | 19:29 |
| ompaul | !wubi | Leerok | 19:29 |

| [agatha] | now where is the update manager Malaz ?? normally it just pops up when there are upgrades :s | 19:30 |
| Malaz | Leachim6: I thought you meant you had to change it from free to non-free. What is wrong with it, and why do you want to change it? | 19:30 |

| _moro_bana_ | Wyzard: maybe im not good at expalaing, or i dont understand this myself. its microsoft ppptp, to which i provide login and passwd to gain access to internet | 19:30 |
| CJS3141 | SeaPhor: I see, and what router are you using by the way? | 19:31 |
| ompaul | styrman, well you can use xcalc (launch from terminal) or use bc | 19:31 |
| Wyzard | _moro_bana_: oh, so it's not actually a VPN, and you have no Internet access at all without it | 19:31 |
| styrman | ompaul: does xcalc handle x? or do i have to split it up? | 19:31 |
| crc32 | K-PO: I don't get it. I can't find the magic icon to configure gnome-keyring (gnome-keyring-manager is now missing from hardy) can't uninstall gnome-keyring with out removing usefull stuff such as ubuntu-desktop. Is ubuntu really this inflexible? | 19:31 |
| new | yes | 19:31 |
| _earlgrey | Anybody use Tracker? It's not enabled by default in Hardy. | 19:31 |
| ompaul | styrman, it do3es not handle x | 19:32 |
| JDahl | I am setting up a home network and I have an ubuntu fileserver configured with samba, and I can mount shares from another machine with "mount.cifs", but all the graphical tools keeps refusing connection | 19:32 |

| Wyzard | _moro_bana_: I have no experience with PPTP though | 19:32 |
| Bulwinkle | is there a centralized management utility for service handling ie, that level services start at wether they start at all etc? | 19:32 |

| rnunez | how do you connect to a wap network? ubuntu 8.04 | 19:32 |
| ompaul | styrman, do this search in the applications add application for math and see how many options you have | 19:32 |
| amenado | Bulwinkle-> man update-rc.d or invoke-rc.d | 19:32 |
| _moro_bana_ | Wyzard: yes, i have no internet without it. but under windows it says connected to "virtual network" | 19:32 |
| Ashfire908 | is there a way to have named workspaces while using compiz? | 19:33 |
| FG|krosan | im back amenado CJS3141 | 19:33 |
| matthias__ | anybody have been working on getting the microphone to work on an dell ? | 19:33 |
| tallman | hello everybody | 19:33 |
| FG|krosan | this is what i found: | 19:33 |
| FG|krosan | http://paste.ubuntu.com/8386/ amenado CJS3141 | 19:33 |
| _moro_bana_ | Wyzard; most people here dont connect to internt that way i have come to notice | 19:33 |
| K-Yo | thedonvaughn, then I guess you have no Idea? | 19:33 |
| Wyzard | _moro_bana_: probably because PPTP is normally used for creating VPNs (where you already have "direct" Internet access, and you use it for sending encrypted packets to the VPN endpoint | 19:33 |
| styrman | ompaul yeah i've done it, but i'm looking for tool that supports an unknown value, i've heard there are mathbots that can solve it, thought if there was any tools out there for gui/console | 19:33 |
| Gerinych | how do you change permissions of a folder from a terminal | 19:33 |
| ompaul | styrman, do this search in the applications add application for math and see how many options you have | 19:33 |
| Wyzard | _moro_bana_: I don't think I've ever heard of using PPTP as the first and only layer of network access | 19:34 |
| Wyzard | _moro_bana_: but like I said, I have no experience with it | 19:34 |
| ezquerro | hi to everybody | 19:34 |
| amenado | FG|krosan-> and what was the issue again? what does not work? | 19:34 |
| ezquerro | i have installed a new hard disk in my pc | 19:34 |

| AnnaX | chmod | 19:34 |
| AnnaX | gerinych, chmod is the command you use to change file permissions | 19:35 |

| FG|krosan | amenado i can't connect to internet while i use the exact same settings as in windows (dual boot). My modem has a DHCP server, my router doesn't, my router receives a dynamic ip from the provider, but i made the router give out static ips to the pcs in my network. | 19:35 |
| amenado | ezquerro-> right click on Places and select edit menus | 19:35 |
| ompaul | styrman, looks like it would be better for you to use a math function in a programming language and wrap your problem up in that - if you are smart about it, keep the code tight and you can build a very useful tool with it - python or perl or some such | 19:36 |
| w33d5 | !repeat NIC | 19:36 |
| ubotu | Sorry, I don't know anything about repeat nic - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi | 19:36 |

| styrman | ompaul yeah i'm programming atm, just thought if there was any tool out there already for it | 19:37 |
| CJS3141 | SeaPhor: Have you successfully stayed connected with your router with any other computer/OS? | 19:37 |
| Agilo | Is it here where we can get help with ubuntu | 19:37 |
| FG|krosan | amenado, no I can't ping 192.168.0.1 (my router) | 19:37 |

| Agilo | and i have my mouse pointer nex | 19:38 |
| Agilo | it presses itself | 19:38 |
| tallman | AngelaMuller, you can also try the alternate CD, I always prefer it over desktop, the result is the same | 19:38 |
| Agilo | on its own | 19:38 |
| mobodo | any reason why envy is not installed by default? | 19:38 |
| Agilo | and changes the places of my cursor | 19:38 |

| barkink | bluefox83, i have ati radeon and it was working with gutsy however not working with hardy, where should i look at? | 19:45 |
| ompaul | wow lag | 19:45 |
| CJS3141 | amenado: If I understood him correctly earlier, he as DSL modem (192.168.1.1) connected to router (192.168.0.1) then connected to his computer. | 19:45 |
| dan | Hi! is anyone available for support? i am having problems mounting or booting into my windows partition after installing 8.10? | 19:45 |
| xb3rt | lowlux, just do a search on screenlets and you should find the most popular one | 19:45 |
| hypercool | seriously | 19:45 |
| ompaul | hypercool second one is for audio | 19:45 |
| hypercool | !wireless | 19:45 |
| ubotu | Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs | 19:45 |
| bluefox83 | barkink, i believe your restricted drivers manager will be able to help you there :) | 19:45 |
| JDahl | do you need to disable password encryption in the samba server to be able to mount such shares via nautilus | 19:45 |
| blackjackel | anyone know the hotkey for switching desktops instead of clicking the area in the bottom right hand side of the screen? | 19:45 |
| amenado | CJS3141-> okay..so his intermediate router has to nat and forward his host packets to the dsl | 19:45 |
| ompaul | hypercool, I got the bot to pm that info to you | 19:45 |
| AnnaX | [T]-rex, I think the problem is with compiz | 19:45 |
| ompaul | !audio > hypercool | 19:46 |

| romper | help this poor noob | 19:46 |
| Blaukatze06 | what is this device addres ? | 19:47 |

| Malaz | sagar: Do you have 7.10? If so, open system>admin>update manager and click the "Upgrade to 8.04" button | 19:48 |
| blackjackel | Uh on, I ran a game under wine on one desktop then hotkeyed to the other desktop and now the game isn't on the first desktop but I can hear the game still running :/ | 19:49 |
| Malaz | romper: I don't know the answer, but spamming the question probably won't help. | 19:49 |
| jrib | prodigel: from what I have seen, your ISP just compresses images, that's not something done on your computer, it's done before the data reaches you | 19:49 |
| FG|krosan | amenado how do i make sure that is done? I'm not very familiar with these things since I'm only using the config GUI that the router offers | 19:49 |
| blackjackel | Alt-tabbing dosen't seem to work either | 19:49 |
| Gerinych | blackjackel, kill the process of the game | 19:49 |
| node357 | so many problems :( | 19:49 |
| node357 | now I'm scared to upgrade | 19:49 |
| romper | please??? | 19:49 |
| blackjackel | Gerinych, the game is gone though? | 19:49 |
| Blaukatze06 | Some application ask for my bluetooth device adress , when i do lsusb i get Bus 002 Device 003: ID 0a5c:2045 Broadcom Corp. --- so what should be the device address ? | 19:49 |
| skinnymg1 | 8.04 is awesome do the upgrade | 19:50 |
| node357 | okay skinnymg1 | 19:50 |
| Gerinych | blackjackel, so, if something of the game still exsts, it means its still running | 19:50 |
| Malaz | romper: Try asking a different way, or looking it up on google. But if no-one answers, it means no-one knows the answer to that specific question. | 19:50 |
| amenado | FG|krosan-> well, what device is that router? what brand? any documentation for it you can reference? if not, you can make your ubuntu box acts like that router, but you need two nic cards one for dsl side, one for lan side | 19:50 |

| blackjackel | Gerinych, i know, I was wondering if there was a way to still go back to the game, I killed the process though :D | 19:50 |

| okv | node357: Be careful with the upgrade. Try to do a fresh install is at all possible. My whole system has had big problems since I upgraded to 8.044 | 19:51 |
| CJS3141 | amenado: I don't think a firewall or filtering should be a problem if FG|krosan has it working in Windows all ready... Seems like he has some other issue, but I could be wrong. | 19:51 |
| Gerinych | blackjackel, alt-tab perhaps? | 19:51 |
| skinnymg1 | does anyone besides me miss automatix | 19:51 |
| romper | Malaz: sorry... i've already look up on google but i haven't found anything | 19:51 |
| dury | hi there all | 19:51 |
| okv | node357: Even now many things which used to work before are not working at all after I upgraded to 8.04. | 19:51 |
| blackjackel | Gerinych, tried that, it was nowhere to be found on alt tab on either of the desktops | 19:51 |
| jrib | skinnymg1: no. What do you miss exactly? | 19:51 |
| dury | anyone from down under | 19:51 |
| Malaz | While we're on the topic of sound questions: Music plays, system sounds work, but a certain 3D game does not, when it did output sound in 7.10, the instant I upgraded the sound was broken. Any ideas? I blame Pulse... | 19:51 |

| FG|krosan | amenado it's a bit delicate, since other people on this network rely on internet for their work, i wouldn't want to screw something up in the router, while it did work for my ubuntu some time ago without changing the router's configuration | 19:51 |
| Gerinych | blackjackel, then i dont know | 19:51 |
| dury | aussie | 19:51 |

| FG|krosan | amenado it's the same pc as my ubuntu, with the same IP, i'm using dual boot | 19:53 |
| jrib | skinnymg1: pastebin the contents of your /etc/apt/sources.list | 19:53 |
| prodigel | jrib: Ok. But is there something similar for whole network traffic? like tcp/udp packages being compressed or something? | 19:53 |
| amenado | FG|krosan-> and is the windows using wireless or ethernet? | 19:53 |

| jrib | Konam: be more specific | 19:53 |
| xb3rt | prodigel, are you talking monitoring the network traffic | 19:53 |
| Malaz | stothepizzle: You can have apps (like conky, for example) running in the root window, but I don't think nautilus likes it much (root window is desktop layer). It's easy on fluxbox... Are you using GNOME? | 19:53 |
| FG|krosan | amenado i used exactly the same settings from my windows partition in ubuntu | 19:53 |
| prodigel | xb3rt: no, compressing it | 19:54 |
| Piteer | plese.... i'm try install ubuntu 8.04 AMD64 , but , this dont identify my hardy drive IDE | 19:54 |

| FG|krosan | im talking on irc on a different pc, while im testing out on the ubuntu boot of my pc(the one that has problems) | 19:56 |

| FG|krosan | im talking on irc on a different pc, while im testing out on the ubuntu boot of my pc(the one that has problems) amenado | 19:56 |
| xb3rt | prodigel, did you try a power cycle, sometimes that refreshes the equipment and increases the speed, the wireless routers tend to get congested after awhile | 19:56 |
| SeaPhor | CJS3141, i think that since i know how now, thanks to your time and help, i will fresh install 7.10 back on here and try again, and wait on hardy for a bit | 19:56 |
| rodman83 | hello guys, i have a problem with the tsclient from hardy, i can't choose the vnc protocoll for the connection, is there any packages nedded to be installed to use the vnc protocoll? | 19:56 |

| RedEyess | amenado: Ask osiris. | 19:56 |
| amenado | FG|krosan-> next ping localhost <-- working? | 19:56 |

| CJS3141 | SeaPhor: Sorry to hear your connection is flaky--maybe 7.10 is the answer. | 19:57 |
| Malaz | Stothepizzle: I g2g, but that should work out for you. If building the app is too much for you, there should be an easier tutorial around here somewhere: Google 'ubuntu video root window' and you'll get some good results | 19:58 |
| rodman83 | hello guys, i have a problem with the tsclient from hardy, i can't choose the vnc protocoll for the connection, is there any packages nedded to be installed to use the vnc protocoll? | 19:58 |

| thedonvaughn | Musashiden: come again? Be more specific what you are trying to do. | 20:00 |
| FG|krosan | amenado pinging 192.168.0.105 works | 20:01 |
| Musashiden | amenado: like, make 66.66.666.66 -> 77.77.777.77 (not the actual IPs, just an example) | 20:01 |
| Musashiden | thedonvaughn: like, make 66.66.666.66 -> 77.77.777.77 (not the actual IPs, just an example) | 20:01 |
| amenado | Musashiden-> thats not clear still, point is not a network term, what do you want to do? | 20:01 |
| Musashiden | redirect an ip to another ip | 20:01 |
| Monicker | Musashiden: for what purpose? | 20:02 |
| thedonvaughn | Musashiden: on a webserver? | 20:02 |
| webmin | Sup guys, girlds... | 20:02 |
| Monicker | Musashiden: you can do snat and dnat with iptables | 20:02 |
| amenado | FG|krosan-> can you paste your /etc/hosts file? | 20:02 |
| Musashiden | its for something. just let me know. | 20:02 |
| thedonvaughn | Musashiden: or for all attempts at an IP? you probably want to look at NAT'ing | 20:02 |
| Monicker | Musashiden: pffft. | 20:02 |
| FG|krosan | ok amenado | 20:02 |
| Monicker | Musashiden: more info helps to get a better answer | 20:02 |
| Musashiden | thedonvaughn: for all attempts | 20:02 |
| amenado | Musashiden-> i will let you know, once you tell me what you want done | 20:02 |
| thedonvaughn | Musashiden: you're going to need to specifcy a NAT then using iptables. | 20:02 |
| osiris | also are you considering the redirected IP wont be on the same subnet as the router, so it wont get outside access ? | 20:03 |

| amenado | webmin-> what wireless card? chip? | 20:03 |
| Musashiden | thedonvaughn: doesn't /etc/host do that? | 20:03 |
| techqbert | Ok seriously guys WTF. I was just writing a paper in open office that took 2 hours. I go to change the time server for gnome and my comp freezes. I figure well OO saved my doc. I ctrl+alt+backspace, open OO, it opens my document from 2 hours ago. I lost my 2 hour paper. WTF | 20:03 |
| thedonvaughn | Musashiden: nope. | 20:03 |
| jroes | anyone able to use the installer with two monitors? | 20:03 |
| thedonvaughn | Musashiden: that's just a way to name a hostname to an IP. you can create aliases and such. | 20:03 |
| webmin | amenado its a atheros wlan | 20:04 |
| CaptainMorgan | was 8.04 released too soooon??? | 20:04 |
| thedonvaughn | Musashiden: and that's only for local machine.. not outside world. | 20:04 |
| amenado | techqbert-> you should have learned by now, save every 5 mins | 20:04 |
| Musashiden | thedonvaughn: oh, I see. | 20:04 |
| amenado | webmin thats odd. your video gets affected | 20:04 |
| witless | I can connect to my WAP when it's open, but not with a shared key | 20:04 |
| Wyzard | Is it just me, or is Opera the only thing in the "partner" repository? | 20:04 |
| webmin | amenado very odd | 20:04 |
| techqbert | amenado: yeah I should of. I love open source software but this only happens with openoffice | 20:04 |
| Musashiden | thedonvaughn: so if I wanted to point 77.77.777.77 to 33.33.333.33, what should I do? | 20:05 |
| Tim1 | What browser can i use that dose not use 100 cpu for you tube? | 20:05 |
| amenado | techqbert-> maybe it has a temporary file it uses..look around for it? | 20:05 |
| absnt | How do I disconnect a SSH client from my box? | 20:05 |
| Musashiden | Tim1: It's not firefox's fault. It's adobe's. | 20:05 |

| afancy | Hi, my wireless network card is AR242x 802.11abg Wireless PCI Express Adapter | 20:06 |
| afancy | vendor: Atheros Communications Inc. Does anyone know how to install the wireless connection? | 20:06 |
| Tim1 | Musashiden: So its not just me ? | 20:06 |
| amenado | webmin-> perhaps your AP does not support it fully, or your driver in your client does not support such encryption | 20:06 |
| blackalex | Hey i am having issues with 8.04. I have a dual head config setup and it works at login but it gets destroyed and cloned when i login. This is a ATI X1950 card i am running. | 20:06 |
| Musashiden | Tim1: nope. its everybody. adobe has yet to release a decent flash driver. | 20:06 |
| Namko | jrib it's me, konam. What happens with policykit is that it keep asking me for my password in network-manager, even though I unblock the application with policykit | 20:06 |
| Wyzard | Tim1: It's not the browser, it's Flash itself that's pegging your CPU | 20:06 |
| Wyzard | Tim1: Flash runs within the browser | 20:06 |
| Musashiden | thedonvaughn: so if I wanted to point 77.77.777.77 to 33.33.333.33, what should I do? | 20:07 |
| Tim1 | Musashiden:for hardy, i sort of had the same thing before the up[grade/ reinstall | 20:07 |
| jrib | Namko: ask the channel that question | 20:07 |
| XORAND | if i have multiple user accounts on xp and have imported their email data into thunderbird (on xp), if I run the automatic hardy install, i should successfully import all those user accounts plus their data into ubuntu, right? | 20:07 |
| amenado | Tim1-> dont know if its the same as the npviewer.bin on fedora thats hogging cpu and memory...its also adobe thing | 20:07 |
| webmin | amenado any idea? =// | 20:07 |
| Namko | jrib I already did, no one answered :/ | 20:07 |
| blackalex | anyone have solutions to Ubuntu Hardy dual head setup? | 20:08 |
| FG|krosan | amenado this is /etc/hosts: http://paste.ubuntu.com/8395/ | 20:08 |
| thedonvaughn | Musashiden: setup a NAT. and it's a little more complicated than that. you would have to own and know how to get to both IP subnets. like if say 77.xxx is your public ip and 33.xx is your private ip. you can then say if a request comes to 77.xx on port 80 then forward to 33.xx port 80. stuff like that. You're gona have to learn iptables tho and NAT'ing. | 20:08 |
| Tim1 | amenado: its very frustrating ? | 20:08 |
| amenado | webmin-> perhaps your AP does not support it fully, or your driver in your client does not support such encryption <-- can you verify? | 20:08 |
| webmin | amenado how can i do that? | 20:08 |
| eyyYo | Is there any player for 64-bit 8.04 that can handle Indeo 5 Video? Cant get it to work, since mplayer dont want to load the codecs. | 20:08 |

| thedonvaughn | Musashiden: then tell the game to connect to a different IP? and yes it is complicated heh. | 20:09 |
| CJS3141 | FG|krosan: Just for troubleshooting, have you tried a different static IP other than 192.168.1.105? Be sure not to pick one that some else all ready has on your LAN. | 20:09 |
| gobbledigook | Hi! after installing 8.10 i have been unable to mount or boot into my windows partition? does anyone think they could help please? | 20:09 |
| jrib | Mimi: sure create a symlink (right click, make link) | 20:09 |
| thedonvaughn | Musashiden: if you tell the game by hostname, you could do what you wanted in /etc/hosts. but if it is specified by IP in the game.. it's gona be more complicated. | 20:10 |
| amenado | FG|krosan-> no wonder, you dont have good entries..correct it please | 20:10 |

| thedonvaughn | Musashiden: yah that's wierd that works in windows. that's not the point of /etc/hosts. that won't really work on any unix i don't think. But yah what you are trying to do can be accomplished with iptables. basically you want to filter on destination if match aa.aa.aaa.aaa. send to bb.bb.bb.bb.bb | 20:14 |

| Villa | I've also installed a driver through ndiswrapper, but the wireless connection does not appear in the network utility | 20:14 |
| MilitantPotato | Frozenball_ IIRC it does defaults,utf-8 or so, automount is a default setting | 20:14 |

| Musashiden | thedonvaughn: any leads about what I should look for? | 20:15 |
| ndo | hey guys, the dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg command, i remember there was also some option added, to limit the settings to gui only. how was it anyone?:) | 20:16 |
| jroes | I actually tried to upgrade Gutsy to Hardy and ran into this same problem on reboot | 20:16 |
| Monicker | Musashiden: start here - http://linux-ip.net/html/nat-dnat.html | 20:16 |
| jroes | so I thought maybe the live cd for hardy would help, but it appears not :P | 20:16 |
| amenado | FG|krosan-> yes very similar..but i used Ubuntu805555 just as an example, use the hostname you have | 20:16 |
| draeath | basically, does anyone know if there are substantial differences between the ubuntu desktop and server "editions"? I'm assuming its just a different set of install-time packages and maybe a different default kernel | 20:16 |
| MilitantPotato | jroes: i'm not familure with nvidia drivers, sorry. | 20:16 |
| jroes | np | 20:16 |
| burner | draeath: server has no gui if i recall | 20:16 |
| jroes | looks like safe graphics mode works | 20:16 |
| nickrud | draeath no big diff, you've already mentioned what it is | 20:16 |
| Musashiden | Monicker: thanks | 20:16 |
| blackalex | jroes what is your issue? | 20:17 |
| draeath | so... anyone know how server vs desktop support works when you install server and put X on? | 20:17 |
| jroes | but this is probably a bug, hope it's not biting too many people. this same hardware config worked fine with Gutsy :| | 20:17 |
| jaffarkelshac | i have been having sound problems with vlc, i was advice to install pulse plugin for vlc, i have, where in vlc do i select it | 20:17 |
| draeath | server is supported longer right? | 20:17 |
| imaginativeone | burner: may I msg you? | 20:17 |
| nickrud | draeath just the server stuff, not the gui goodies | 20:17 |

| Darkchef | hey , i know this is probably an age old question but how can i get dvd playback in ubuntu ???? and ive installed the ubuntu-restricted-extras package but this doesnt seem to be enough ??? | 20:50 |
| ale1 | I'm dual booting Ubuntu with XP. | 20:51 |
| Baby_Shambl3s | !upgrade | MythbuntuGuest54 | 20:51 |
| ubotu | MythbuntuGuest54: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes | 20:51 |
| FG|krosan | amenado i changed it (switched the two), and pinging to my router still doesnt work | 20:51 |
| ale1 | How much is 10GB in bytes? | 20:51 |
| arc_shmoo | jrib: http://pastebin.com/m25f1f238 | 20:51 |
| Darkchef | ale1: i dont know | 20:51 |
| amenado | MythbuntuGuest54-> may i suggest doing a new install of 8.04 as opposed to upgrade that way if you dont like , easy to delete the new, upgrade does not allow you to downgrade | 20:51 |
| BrAdMaN | server | 20:51 |
| Baby_Shambl3s | ale1: ok just noticed jimcooncat is helping you so please continue | 20:51 |
| BrAdMaN | join | 20:51 |

| tokah_ | hello, i am trying to get my mp3 to play, i have installed ubuntu restricted extras which was all i was told to do. i have flash mp4 support, alot more but for some reaosn when i try to plan an mp3 file it says "failed to connect to stream" | 20:52 |
| tokah_ | also, i've had support for the last 4 or so versions of ubuntu i've used | 20:52 |
| flamm | anyone else having problem with changing the refreshrate? mine seems to be stuck at 60.02hz according to Nvidia settings.. even though i've made the 50hz option in xorg.conf | 20:52 |
| MythbuntuGuest54 | no i will updatet from 7.10 to 8.04 but at desktop he say two errors and then at next boot the x console dont work, so i will try it in the console | 20:52 |

| juan__ | How do I make Thunar my default file manager? | 20:52 |
| jimcooncat | ale1: 10 gigabytes = 10 737 418 240 bytes, but be sure that's what they are really asking for. You might be able to just put in 10G and it will take it at face value | 20:52 |
| arc_shmoo | jrib: odd.... ok that worked | 20:52 |
| Baby_Shambl3s | MythbuntuGuest54: I'll add to amenado suggestion and ask you to copy/move your /home area to another hd/partition if you can it just saves time | 20:52 |
| tokah_ | no movie player and rhythmbox | 20:52 |

| Baby_Shambl3s | uwo: which users are those? | 21:07 |

| jimcooncat | ale1 swap doesn't get mounted, but I think you have to tell it to use it as swap somehow. I wish I remembered what that screen looked like | 21:11 |
| amenado | FG|krosan-> comment out those entries you have in /etc/network/interfaces file that are unused like eth2, ath0, wlan0, and also change your resolv.conf to have search yourdomainhere.com instead of domain WERKGROEP | 21:11 |

| Holyphoenix | Question about Dual boot environment with Windows Vista 64-bit and ubuntu 8.04 My MBR was on my first drive with a older XP partition an a HP Recovery Partition and I also had a slave drive connected with Vista 64. I formatted and installed Ubuntu on the first drive while keeping my Vista 64 Drive and OS intact. I just need to know how to edit the menu.lst to reference the boot on the Vista Partition again | 21:14 |

| [agatha] | guys... i just updated to hardy and my wireless is not working any longer... i dunno why | 21:14 |
| h4mx0r | mrbird: after upgrading to 8.04 I had no sound because it registered 2 sound cards for some reason, I blacklisted one and now it works great try pastebin lsmod | grep "snd" and let me check | 21:14 |
| krul | juan__ you have to download additional compiz setting app...don't know exactly the name | 21:14 |
| boris | h4mx0r: where do i enable direct rendering ? btw ive got fglrx 8.4 HD2600Pro AGP. no compiz on.10219 frames in 5.0 seconds = 2043.615 FPS | 21:15 |

| yedda3 | wtf, did you want to kill my machine guys?? | 21:16 |
| yedda3 | first, installing xserver-xgl made me indeed chose normal or extra as effects for advanced desktop stuff, BUT it does not work and something is consuming 100% memory and my szstem load is suicidal! Also mz kezboard settings got reconfigured! | 21:16 |

| polm | To clarify, Why does my Numberpad not work in Xorg anymore but fine in console? | 21:17 |
| osiris | alexmart, sudo apt-get remove --purge apache ? | 21:17 |
| Gerinych | polm, when i try to turn it on, the thing doesnt light up but the numpad still works | 21:17 |
| Musashiden | will there ever be a good flash driver for ubuntu? one that doesn't lag when you want to watch youtube videos on full screen? | 21:17 |
| h4mx0r | boris: well it sounds like you should be doing alright, perhaps try disabling some firefox plugins, java, freeing up memory, and try running top or htop to see what is eating at cpu cycles, are you using intregrated sound card any skips? If you want I can show you how to run X session with just firefox | 21:17 |
| ihearthardy | dubby, do you think it is possible to upgrade from live cd? like tell it to sudo apt-get dist-upgrade to /dev/sda1? | 21:17 |
| polm | Gerinych: my numpad light is On, and it works fine in console. Just not in X. | 21:18 |
| Holyphoenix | KlrSp1: How do I reference a second SATA Hard Drive that has Vista on it in the Grub GUI. My Vista loader was on my first hard drive but of course when I Installed ubuntu it killed that loader and loaded grub. Since I am new I don't know how to reference that second drive in the GRUB menu.lst | 21:18 |
| alado2 | im using "sudo hdparm -Y /dev/sdb1" to shut down one of my drives, and it works fine, i just want to know how i can do it without being a superuser, how i can do it without the "sudo" part | 21:18 |
| yedda3 | XGL is constantlz swapping in and out segments! :( | 21:18 |

| h4mx0r | DG19075: I don't think audacity supports pulseaudio yet so 1.3.4 might be a quick fix beta | 21:18 |
| Gerinych | why does every fullscreen application set under 1280x1024 ends up windowed | 21:18 |
| dubby | ihearthardy: yeah im certain there is a way to do exactly like you said, that and just install libc off the livecd | 21:18 |
| yedda3 | how can I go back to my previous settings? just aptitude remove xsever-xgl? | 21:18 |
| boris | h4mx0r: ive got 2 GB of memory. integrated sound card is disabled. ive got a creative audigy se 7.1 or whatever | 21:18 |
| ihearthardy | dubby, the real question is how? i think it is possible :) | 21:18 |
| Malaz | hearthardy: It is possible to upgrade from livecd, or at least using its packages. Boot into your installed OS, and add the live cd as a repo. Then upgrade. Instead of dling everything, it'll just take the packages from the livecd. | 21:19 |
| ihearthardy | Malaz, could you be more specific please? I'm not as terminal literate as I should be :( | 21:19 |
| ihearthardy | Malaz, i'm a gui monkey.. | 21:19 |
| nwillett | Hey guys. Since a fresh install of hardy 2 days ago, my update manager hasn't found any updates. Is it true that there just haven't been any updates put out yet or is something messed up on my end? | 21:19 |
| tokah_ | is anyone else on hardy having this mp3 problem, the only on that can play mp3's so far is vlc, which is terrible as a music browser, i have downloaded xmms, but it does even open its gui when i try to run it, | 21:19 |
| Malaz | iheart: It's easy to do in the gui. System>admin>software sources | 21:20 |
| Akii | Does anyone know a nice site with information about how the terminal's FTP work? How to log onto a server and such | 21:20 |
| boris | h4mx0r: brb im gonna try restarting FF cuz it seems swfdec isnt quite loaded and working like it should | 21:20 |
| smallfoot- | tokah_, i play mp3 with Rhythmbox, no problem | 21:20 |
| boris | h4mx0r: i mean im gonna try restarting comp lol | 21:20 |
| ihearthardy | Malaz, gnome is crashed... | 21:20 |
| Gerinych | i cant access my mp3 player as a normal user | 21:20 |
| getisboy | is there a way to search for all files with a specific size? | 21:20 |
| tokah_ | smallfoot-, yeah, i used to also, until i upgraded | 21:20 |
| ihearthardy | Malaz, all i can reach is the terminal... :( | 21:20 |
| DG19075 | So going back to Audacity 1.3.3 was a good idea. Now to get the update manger to stop bothering me about reinstalling 1.3.4! | 21:20 |
| Malaz | iheart: and then check the 8.04 livecd box-- wait, what? | 21:20 |
| ihearthardy | Malaz, my whole x is jacked :( | 21:20 |
| smallfoot- | tokah_, keep use it :p | 21:20 |
| Malaz | iheart: Ahh, so that's why you want to use the livecd. | 21:20 |
| tokah_ | for some reason nothing is playing mp3's they all say somethign about bad file stream | 21:20 |
| Holyphoenix | Can someone help me with a GRUB question please. | 21:20 |
| tokah_ | smallfoot-, until i upgraded.... | 21:21 |
| yedda3 | I need help, some person in here gave me the advice to sudo aptitude install xserver/xgl and now my system is constantyl on heavy load and memory swapping in and out. Please help | 21:21 |
| h4mx0r | boris: create a file .xinitrc in your /home/user directory and in it say exec firefox then a blank line press ctrl alt f2 login do sudo /etc/rc.d/gdm stop then do startx --notcp see how that works :) | 21:21 |
| yedda3 | i use 8.04 | 21:21 |
| ihearthardy | Malaz, still possible? | 21:21 |
| Malaz | iheart: 1 sec, I'll see what the cd source line is in etc/apt/sources.list | 21:21 |
| yedda3 | the .24 kernel | 21:21 |
| tokah_ | smallfoot-, for some reason it no longer works, although i have installed rrestricted extras | 21:21 |
| Malaz | iheart: Still possible, just easier now, with CLI. | 21:21 |
| smallfoot- | tokah_, oh, rhythmbox no longer starts? | 21:21 |
| nwillett | has anyone using 8.04 seen any updates in the update manager since release? | 21:21 |
| ihearthardy | Malaz, CLI? | 21:21 |
| h4mx0r | boris: it should load up X with just firefox so huge fps gain | 21:21 |
| smallfoot- | nwillett, not me | 21:22 |
| Malaz | iheart: Command Line Interface (rather than GUI) | 21:22 |
| tokah_ | no it wont paly mp3s nothing will except vlc and supposedly xmms2, which for some reason wont open it s gui on my box | 21:22 |
| ihearthardy | Malaz, let's get started :) | 21:22 |
| magnus|msc | has anyone of you skype working ??? | 21:22 |
| juan__ | In Kubuntu there's a tool to select what mounts to drive and where to mount them - is there something similar in Ubuntu? | 21:22 |

| ihearthardy | Malaz, your the first person that told me not to reformat :P | 21:22 |
| blah569 | I have been trying to get Ubuntu working with wireless for a long time. Does anyone have any idea how to get Ubuntu working with an RTL8186B wireless card? | 21:22 |
| nwillett | kk thanks smallfoot | 21:22 |
| yedda3 | please, I didn't expect 8.04 to be so ### beta | 21:22 |
| smallfoot- | tokah_, you can try re-installl rhythmbox and the mp3 codec package | 21:22 |
| FG|krosan | amenado http://paste.ubuntu.com/8416/ | 21:23 |
| * Baby_Shambl3s is back | 21:23 | |
| cri | any ide why I dont have anything after my login on 8.04? just a mouse cursor? | 21:23 |
| Malaz | iHeart: Well, my line is: "deb cdrom:[Ubuntu 8.04 _Hardy Heron_ - Daily Build i386 (20080331)]/ hardy main restricted". But we need to find what cd image you have. You do have an 8.04 livecd, right? | 21:23 |
| jose_figue | una comunidad de ubuntu es españo | 21:23 |
| jose_figue | epañol | 21:23 |
| tokah_ | smallfoot-, which one is the mp3 codec package | 21:23 |
| ihearthardy | Malaz, yes | 21:23 |
| Gerinych | i cant access my mp3 player as a normal user, the thing says only root can see what's in it, but i can't change its permissions as a root | 21:23 |
| tokah_ | i just used restricted extras, smallfoot- | 21:23 |
| dubby | ihearthardy im guessing you are trying very hard to save the install instead of reformat | 21:23 |
| ihearthardy | Malaz, and alternate install | 21:23 |
| ihearthardy | dubby, definitely | 21:23 |
| smallfoot- | tokah_, im not sure | 21:24 |
| Holyphoenix | Would (hd1,0) Refer to my second hard drive partition number 1 in the Menu.lst? | 21:24 |
| Baby_Shambl3s | cri: what do you mean dont have anything, what happens when you login | 21:24 |
| ihearthardy | dubby, i've worked really hard on tweaking everything.. | 21:24 |
| Malaz | iheart: Well, I assumed you have a reason to want to upgrade to fix the problem. We should probably figure out *why* X doesn't work | 21:24 |
| amenado | FG|krosan-> you didnt follow what i told you.. | 21:24 |
| smallfoot- | tokah_, perhaps 'gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly' | 21:24 |
| FG|krosan | oh :o | 21:24 |
| Akii | jose_figue, no hablas ingles? | 21:24 |
| IndyGunFreak | Gerinych: is the device mounted? | 21:24 |
| ihearthardy | Malaz, i would like tot upgrade, because i don't think it finished :( | 21:24 |
| ihearthardy | Malaz, it crashed within twenty minutes, so i assumed upgrading again would finish it? | 21:24 |
| cri | Baby_Shambl3s: the login pass, then I have the background and I can mouve the mouse, that's it, nothing changes. | 21:24 |
| DPic | i used a separate partition as my liveCD (so i don't have to waste disks) and i'm trying to do a clean install on this computer which is still running the beta.

| Pelo | ihearthardy, sudo apt-get install libstdc++6 libstdc++6-dev | 21:41 |

| ikonia | akh3n4t0n: why don't you ask the question, i can share lots of information, none of it maybe useful to you | 21:44 |
| Pelo | bmk789, terminal > alsamixer make sure the mic is not muted, that the level is up and then check in system > prefs > sound make sure your card is selected for capture | 21:44 |
| Malaz | ihearthardy: Best way to do that would be to boot off a live usb drive... | 21:44 |
| ihearthardy | Malaz, uh it says failed to initialize NVIDIA kernel module, fatal server error: no screens found . giving up. ---> what a great error...a downer :) | 21:44 |
| Baby_Shambl3s | cri: huh? just ls inside the directory to see its contents, find folder logs/etc/ - cd into that folder and cat or gedit the file that you want to read | 21:44 |
| ikonia | ihearthardy: thats a good error actually | 21:44 |
| akh3n4t0n | ikonia, i did; "i can't figure out how to make a particular module [omnibook] to re-load itself on resume from hibernate; can anybody point me in the right direction?" | 21:44 |
| ihearthardy | Malaz, wait does that mean its just missing a cfg? | 21:44 |
| VampBoy | I cant get my fresh install to boot, it keeps booting into windows instead | 21:44 |
| Malaz | ihearthardy: Oh, yeah. Well, do you have 2 cd drives... anywhere? | 21:44 |
| Pelo | ihearthardy, is this after an upgrade ? | 21:44 |
| jk_ | gotcha crashanddie | 21:44 |
| alex_mayorga | ihearhardy, what card? | 21:44 |
| alexbe01 | ibleed, that's because the docs themselves aren't in the repos | 21:44 |
| ikonia | akh3n4t0n: what are you doing to "wake it" | 21:44 |
| ihearthardy | Pelo, partial upgrade | 21:44 |
| alexbe01 | look at the terminal output, it will tell you what you need to do to get the docs | 21:44 |
| ihearthardy | Malaz, yeah but it would be a pain to get it out, i have a usb stick | 21:45 |
| alexbe01 | it's not going to hurt anything thoguh | 21:45 |
| Baby_Shambl3s | cri: or you could ask again and soemone with more expertise than me might be able to help you | 21:45 |

| ubotu | ketan: Please don't ask to ask a question, ask the question (all on ONE line, so others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely answer. :-) | 21:45 |
| ibleed | thank you alexbe01. do you know if java is otherwise functional? tried to access a page that wouldn't acknowlege java was installed | 21:45 |
| Malaz | ihearthardy: I strongly advise you to just reinstall. | 21:45 |

| ihearthardy | Pelo, apt is basically dead....it is missing a lib | 21:46 |
| seamus7 | VampBoy hit ESC upon boot up in order to show grub ... it might be hidden | 21:46 |
| alexbe01 | and honestly, i'd recommend the sun-java6-plugin | 21:46 |
| * Pelo is realy astounded at the number of bad upgrades this time around | 21:46 | |
| ihearthardy | Pelo, so i cant install that lib without using apt :( | 21:46 |
| ikonia | akh3n4t0n: thats a reasonable comment, what happens if you power it off, power it back on then check the logs to find out the status of the hibernation | 21:46 |
| VampBoy | I tried but nothing came up, but I will try again | 21:46 |
| Pelo | ihearthardy, clean install | 21:46 |

| alexbe01 | Pelo, very true, the number of users has skyrocketed since then | 21:47 |
| ihearthardy | Malaz, it says nv driver component has version that doesn't match | 21:47 |
| Jack_Sparrow | 610 was bad yea | 21:47 |

| Pelo | hypercool, just sudo dpkg -i /path/package | 21:48 |
| Malaz | iheart: It really doesn't matter because apt-get is broken. You can't fix your computers without a tool to fix it. | 21:48 |

| microwaver | ketan, and when I want to use the command ndiswrapper it just doesn't do anything | 21:48 |
| ikonia | akh3n4t0n: so when you wake it up, is the module still loaded but usless, or has it unloaded | 21:48 |
| Malaz | ihearthardy: When BIOS is loading it should ask you to hit a key for config. Usually ESC, del, F2, F8, or F12. | 21:48 |
| Pelo | alexbe01, you just need to reimpoprt them I managed to do it , it's not taht difficult | 21:49 |

| alexbe01 | Boredcollegekid, why are you running the flash installer as root? | 21:56 |
| microwaver | ketan, ok thanks | 21:56 |
| ketan | microwaver: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx/ | 21:56 |
| Oetzi | because all my nice desklets have lost there transparency while upgrading to hardy | 21:56 |
| amenado | DPic-> at boot you can press escape to get a grub prompt, then try to find /boot/grub/menu.lst | 21:56 |
| ikonia | beernutz: as in latest in ubuntu or latest ever made | 21:56 |
| nibsa1242b | skinnymg1: can you suspend/ hib with ati in 8.04? | 21:56 |

| boris | alexbe01: shouldnt i be ? | 21:57 |
| ikonia | beernutz: ok, so it should be kernel-source-$version | 21:57 |
| beernutz | using the -server kernel if that makes any difference | 21:57 |
| skinnymg1 | work* | 21:57 |
| alexbe01 | nope | 21:57 |
| seamus7 | errpast oh I don't know vimperator ... I was going to say that delicious has an alpha build that works with FF3 .. nevermind | 21:57 |

| enfefi | I need help!! The problem is that I uninstalled Wine one day and now that I installed it again I don't see it in the Gnome menu | 21:57 |

| microwaver | ketan, just let me search for my cd :p | 21:57 |
| Oetzi | hi | 21:57 |
| nibsa1242b | pwcca: normally on the install cd that came with the hardware or from the manufacturer's website | 21:57 |
| Malaz | ihearthardy: Well, that may be a problem. | 21:57 |
| ikonia | Lapinux: it's not a volume, it's a meta device | 21:57 |
| jayb2009 | nibsa1242b: thanks...do you know if i setup this for a customer what the performance issues are? And can wubi run within windows running? | 21:57 |
| amenado | FG|krosan-> you can certainly try | 21:58 |
| mrkeishii | is ubuntu 8.04 Stable? | 21:58 |
| boris | alexbe01: ty, its not asking the installation path now | 21:58 |
| ketan | microwaver: try using synaptic :) | 21:58 |
| microwaver | ketan, quick intermediate question, do you know a iso emulator for linux? | 21:58 |
| skinnymg1 | stable for me so far | 21:58 |
| Malaz | ihearthardy: Do you see CD and hardrive there? | 21:58 |
| microwaver | ketan, synaptic? | 21:58 |
| errpast | seamus7, Do you know if it's easy to load ff2 onto 8.04 without breaking things. Used to be you could drop a ff binary in | 21:58 |
| alexbe01 | jayb2009, you'll still have to boot into ubuntu if you install with wubi | 21:58 |
| alexbe01 | !iso | microwaver | 21:58 |
| ubotu | microwaver: To mount an ISO disc image, type « sudo mount -o loop <ISO-filename> <mountpoint> » - There is a list of useful cd image conversion tools at http://wiki.linuxquestions.org/wiki/CD_Image_Conversion - Always verify the ISO using !MD5 before !burning. | 21:58 |
| ikonia | microwaver: a what ? | 21:58 |
| mrkeishii | is ubuntu 8.04 Stable? | 21:58 |
| amenado | DPic-> try root ( adn press tab | 21:58 |
| pwcca | im on a laptop if that makes any dif | 21:58 |
| Scunizi | If I've made an ISO of a dvd is there a way I can play it without reburning it to a dvd or unpacking the ISO? | 21:58 |
| ikonia | mrkeishii: yes | 21:58 |
| skinnymg1 | havent shut down since video driver install | 21:58 |
| alexbe01 | mrkeishii, it's final, yes | 21:58 |
| witakr | IM using EnvyNG, anyone know what driver I need to install to use my nVidia GeForce 6200 OC? | 21:58 |
| mrkeishii | u guys sure | 21:58 |
| Lapinux | ikonia: the reason i ask is becuase after upgrading to 8.04 the volume is now called 1000.2 GB Media | 21:58 |
| ikonia | Scunizi: mount it loop back | 21:58 |
| mrkeishii | okay | 21:58 |
| seamus7 | errpast: I believe it is though I would back up your FF profile first | 21:58 |
| FG|krosan | ok will do amenado, thanks for the support you gave me, it's greatly appreciated! | 21:58 |
| Scunizi | ikonia: how? | 21:58 |
| ikonia | Lapinux: ok, so thats the name of the disk | 21:58 |
| microwaver | ikonia, thank you :) | 21:58 |
| ikonia | Scunizi: mount -o loop | 21:58 |
| alexbe01 | witakr, don't use envy, you will not be supported here. | 21:58 |
| mrkeishii | how about Kubuntu 8.04 KDE 3.5 | 21:58 |
| DPic | amenado: should i be doing that from the command line or what? | 21:58 |
| seamus7 | I had FF2, FF3 and Flock at the same time for a while | 21:58 |
| microwaver | alexbe01, merci eh | 21:58 |
| amenado | FG|krosan-> okay you're welcome | 21:59 |
| Malaz | microwaver: There is an iso emulator 'built in' as it were. the way linux mounts disks, it treats ISOs and CDs the same way | 21:59 |
| witakr | bazhang told me to use it | 21:59 |
| errpast | seamus7, ya, I had issues a while back trying to upgrade to ff2, so I could get my extensions :) | 21:59 |
| amenado | DPic at the grub prompt | 21:59 |
| Scunizi | ikonia: where do I put the file name in the arguement? | 21:59 |
| ikonia | mrkeishii: how about it ? | 21:59 |
| alexbe01 | microwaver, you're welcome | 21:59 |
| microwaver | malaz, wonderfull | 21:59 |
| errpast | seamus7, I loaded 7.10 on my laptop too, and am sticking with that for day to day. | 21:59 |
| ikonia | Scunizi: man mount, but its mount -o loop $image $mount_point | 21:59 |
| witakr | what should I use to install my card? | 21:59 |
| ommegang | is there a ubuntu 8.04 hardware page | 21:59 |
| Geoffrey2 | I have a tv tuner card in my computer, and was wondering what a decent linux app for that would be...no fancy editing required, just the ability to watch it on my monitor.... | 21:59 |
| seamus7 | errpast: put FF2 in a directory within your home directory.. | 21:59 |
| Lamego | errpast, there is firefox-2 on Hardy | 21:59 |
| Lapinux | ikonia: i have /dev/md0 /media/r5-storage set in fstab, and it used to be called r5-storage in computer:/// | 21:59 |
| errpast | seamus7, ok | 21:59 |
| Oetzi | someone knows howto to use gdesklets together with xcompmgr | 21:59 |
| errpast | Lamego really. Where | 22:00 |
| alexbe01 | witakr, i really doubt bazhang recommended that you use something that is going to get you shunned by virtually everyone | 22:00 |
| errpast | Lamego, that would be great | 22:00 |
| Malaz | microwaver: it's mount $image $mount_point | 22:00 |
| Lamego | errpast, the package name is "firefox-2" | 22:00 |
| Lapinux | ikonia: after the upgrade its calling it 1000.2 GB Media, and i dont know why | 22:00 |
| philip_ | I'm looking for the 2.6.25 kernel deb. Anyone know where I can get it? Still looking | 22:00 |
| DPic | amenado: okay so what to you mean try root? | 22:00 |
| skinnymg1 | boot into the live cd and it has a hardware tester | 22:00 |
| beernutz | ikonia: am i missing something easy? lol it cant find kernel-source-2.6.24-16 | 22:00 |
| ikonia | Lapinux: if no label is set, it's set by the disk descripition | 22:00 |
| nibsa1242b | jayb2009: I haven't used it yet. However, my understanding is that it is essentially like a normal linux dual-boot install with the exception that it resides in a folder on the FAT/NTFS (windows) drive. So other then possible performance implications of writing to FAT / NTFS I think is should be about normal speed. | 22:00 |
| nich01 | Ok, so I upgraded to Hardy Heron and I am being forced to run in Low Graphics mode now... any ideas? simple fix? | 22:00 |
| alexbe01 | you install your driver either a ) through hardware drivers under system, or b ) with nvidia-glx-new in synaptic | 22:00 |
| microwaver | lekan, funny, i've installed utils, when I want to use the command. it says common is not installed, when I want to apt-get it. It says it's already the latest verson. | 22:00 |

| Lamego | errpast, yes | 22:00 |

| ikonia | beernutz: no that should work, try apt-get search 2.6 | 22:00 |
| witakr | alexbe01, why would i lie? He told me to use it and he told me how to install it... | 22:00 |
| Lapinux | ikonia: so i was asking, how do i go about setting the label, or seeing if one is set? | 22:00 |
| cherva | what happened to hd* in /dev after the upgrade to hardy ? | 22:00 |
| ikonia | beernutz: (widen the search ;) | 22:00 |

| boris | kenan__: you've got fusion icon? | 22:02 |
| nibsa1242b | jayb2009: I think its best feature is to be able to test out Ubuntu without having to worry about harming the existing Windows install (no mbr changes, no worring about GRUB, etc). | 22:02 |
| soto | stefg: I'm likely to have a problem? | 22:02 |

| iksandar | Ive just updated to heron | 22:03 |
| beernutz | ikonia: looks like it should be linux-source-2.6.24 | 22:03 |
| nxusr | which directory contains a file for all processes running ? anyone? | 22:03 |
| Fa | double click on it cory | 22:03 |

| errpast | Blaze1041, I have no sound. I think I need to enable backports to get a new ALSA driver. Haven't done it yet | 22:03 |
| ketan | microwaver: dunno. | 22:03 |
| nibsa1242b | ikonia: I didn't have any problems with the upgrade on my desktop or laptop. First time neither system went without issue... ymmv | 22:03 |
| nxusr | which directory contains a file for all processes running ? is is /proc? | 22:03 |
| skinnymg1 | before installing 8.04 go in the menu and find the hardware tester and run it, it will help you with wether or not to upgrade | 22:03 |
| errpast | Blaze1041, try running lspci. That will tell you what card the kernel found | 22:03 |
| b3n87 | nibsa1242b: it wont mount in Ubuntu | 22:03 |
| erle- | is pulseaudio the default gstreamer sink in hardy? | 22:03 |
| Blaze1041 | errpast: Ok one sec | 22:04 |
| Lapinux | ikonia: i didnt know if a raid array was different in some way | 22:04 |
| cory_ | it says arcive type not soported | 22:04 |
| ketan | microwaver: i'm myself stuck after getting ndiswrapper installed. | 22:04 |
| boris | kenan__: just disable compiz on bootup and put fusion icon on your panel, you can start it manually anyway | 22:04 |
| Invert314 | on the hardy livecd, ubiquity and gparted won't recognize my 6 partitions even though fdisk, testdisk and nautilus do....i've been without ubuntu for days.... | 22:04 |
| microwaver | ketan, ndiswrapper. Is 'installed' but when I want to use the command i says it doesn't. | 22:04 |
| kenan__ | boris: yes i know, thats what i meant be reload the window manager, its not a huge problem but its better if it loaded properly to beign with | 22:04 |
| witakr | Someone know what driver to use for nVidia GeForce 6200 OC?, this is a older card | 22:04 |
| microwaver | ketan, oh :) | 22:04 |
| ikonia | nibsa1242b: I didn't know you had a problem at all, I've not seen your question | 22:04 |
| alexbe01 | witakr, i *already* told you | 22:04 |
| stefg | soto: usually upgrades are only suported from version to version, skipping is not supported. exemption are LTS versions, but this is largely untested. I the interest of a clean and stabel system i'd backup and reinstall, then just restore waht is needed. see the !clone factoid for hints on how to do it effiently | 22:04 |
| ikonia | Lapinux: nah, works like a normal disk | 22:04 |
| macd | witakr, nvidia-glx-new, or used the restriced manager to install | 22:04 |
| Blaze1041 | errpast: how can i run it while xchat is open? | 22:04 |
| alexbe01 | either install the restricted driver through the hardware drivers applet, or nvidia-glx-new | 22:04 |
| ikonia | Lapinux: the label info is set in the file system, not the "disk" | 22:04 |
| ketan | microwaver: what does "which ndiswrapper" say ? | 22:04 |
| beernutz | ikonia: hate it when i cant remember something so darn simple, and i cant remember how the heck to search the repositories.. lol | 22:04 |
| sareth | does anyone have experience with a full disk encryption system? | 22:04 |
| boris | kenan__: if you really want to get it solved, ask in #compiz-fusion, maybe some1 there will know the answer | 22:05 |
| microwaver | ketan, The program 'ndiswrapper' is currently not installed. You can install it by typing: | 22:05 |
| ikonia | beernutz: I've not got an ubuntu box to hand, so couldn't check it, so well done | 22:05 |
| microwaver | sudo apt-get install ndiswrapper-common | 22:05 |
| microwaver | bash: ndiswrapper: command not found | 22:05 |
| skinnymg1 | click the search button | 22:05 |
| kenan__ | boris: ok ill try that | 22:05 |
| Invert314 | anyone? | 22:05 |
| errpast | Blaze1041, you could minimize xchat briefly, and open terminal | 22:05 |
| macd | beernutz, 'apt-chache search stringhere' | 22:05 |
| witakr | i did those things in 7.1 and they didnt work, are you saying that they will work now in hardy? | 22:05 |
| Oetzi | noone have a solution for me? | 22:05 |
| cory_ | Fa- it says archive type not supported | 22:05 |
| errpast | Blaze1041, you could go to a tty like with alt-ctl-f1 | 22:05 |
| Lapinux | ikonia: ok, so now i just need to figure out the tool and command i need to use, i was checking out tunefs.reiserfs man page and it says to use the -l option | 22:05 |
| ketan | microwaver: then it means that you need to install it :) | 22:05 |

| howapt | Im using a rather poo laptop hand-me-down, with intergrated graphics... on Windows it performs ok for non-gaming use (and thats on Vista), yet on Ubuntu I seem to be getting graphical lag, would that suggest a driver issue? | 22:06 |
| Blaze1041 | errpast: sent it to you :P | 22:06 |
| errpast | Blaze1041, usually, nvidia drivers are proprietary. | 22:06 |

| Invert314 | krul: no raid | 22:07 |
| stefg | howapt: right | 22:07 |
| soto | stefg: If you are suggesting to re-install anyway, why don't I just try a feisty -> Hardy directly and if it fails I just do a clean install? | 22:07 |
| ketan | wont someone help me ? | 22:07 |
| macd | howapt, that suggests you might have copiz running and your gfx chipset can't do it well./ | 22:07 |
| nibsa1242b | b3n87: ok; so thats what Partition Editor says... but what file system do you know it to be? | 22:07 |

| Lapinux | AstralSin: im having some weird sound problems as well after upgrading | 22:16 |
| stefg | error0327: you most productive way of dealing with that would be searching launchpad if the bug is reported already, and if not to open a new one (don't forget to give the outputs of lspci -vv, lshw and dmesg ) | 22:16 |
| nibsa1242b | b3n87: you could consult man mount; you'd have to do it as root... Still you'd want to make sure Windows was shut down properly instead of say having the power turned off suddenly | 22:17 |
| GoodJob | hello... again :) | 22:17 |
| alex_mayorga | !x | 22:17 |
| ubotu | The X Window System is the part of your system that's responsible for graphical output. To restart your X, type « sudo /etc/init.d/?dm restart » in a console - To fix screen resolution or other X problems: http://help.ubuntu.com/community/FixVideoResolutionHowto | 22:17 |
| macd | johnnyftw, ok, then Id suggest grepping your X log for the string EE to find out where the rror is, you can do this: 'cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log | grep EE' and post any results to the pastebin | 22:17 |
| AstralSin | Lapinux: do you know of any configuration screens for pulseaudio? | 22:17 |
| Lapinux | AstralSin: sometimes it works, sometimes it doesnt, and i get error about it sometimes with vbox | 22:17 |

| nibsa1242b | b3n87: could you goto a terminal and do a " sudo fdisk -l " for me and stick the results in a paste bin? | 22:17 |
| GoodJob | AliRezaTaleghani, but there are no deb packages of it | 22:17 |
| ikonia | beernutz: so use a 64bit kernel, with a 32bit environment ? | 22:17 |

| Malaz | ihearthardy: Sounds like your problem is solved. During the 8.04 install I think you should make a /home partion separate from your / partition, so if this happens again you can just reinstall the system over the / pertition without having to copy your /home directory. | 22:24 |

| mkquist | that was my question, cant seem to get the drivers to work in 8.04 | 22:25 |
| Malaz | ihearthardy: Your / partition should be at least 4 gigs, but I'd make mine more like 10 to have room for (a lot) of different apps. Make your swap partition about 2x the amount of ram you have, and make your /home dir the rest of the disk. | 22:25 |
| nhuyanhuk | errpast: do you have the same experience ? | 22:25 |
| J-Unit | ikonia, lol ok im sry :( | 22:25 |
| J_Humphrey | pwcca, that means its the free and open source version | 22:25 |

| errpast | nhuyanhuk, I really like those effects by the way | 22:25 |

| GoodJob | AliRezaTaleghani, so does vidalia include tor AND privoxy? | 22:26 |
| Malaz | iheart: Yeah. All your config files are in hidden directories (prefixed with a '.') like .mozilla for firefox (I think). So that'll get evrything. | 22:26 |
| Lapinux | i seem to have an issue with compiz not loading after upgrading to 8.04 | 22:26 |

If you just go with the default partitioning, (or do it the better way, doesn't matter) just paste it in /home. Replace only the ones you want to keep the config of. | 22:30 |

| MRambaldi | how do i keep my smb shares permanetly mounted | 22:40 |
| b3n87 | nibsa1242b: im sorry, ive been working with my mate trying to figure this out | 22:40 |
| Monobi | thompa, nano /etc/hosts and correct it | 22:40 |
| soppman | pwcca and Monobi thats not for X right? putty is terminal only i think? | 22:40 |
| prabs | lch: thanks mate, i go have a look | 22:40 |
| lch | prabs: there are tools to "mount" cd images under windows too. then you could use wubi that is on the cd | 22:40 |
| J_Humphrey | pwcca: then that means it should have worked, the last command is to add the correct driver that you need | 22:40 |
| Monobi | soppman, putty is a terminal for windows | 22:40 |
| thompa | Monobi: i did that yesterday from here and now its back | 22:40 |
| b3n87 | nibsa1242b: can you tell me a command to mount the file /dev/sdb1 | 22:40 |
| === Amaranth_ is now known as Amaranth | ||
| sareth | MRambaldi add them to /etc/fstab is a viable option i believe. | 22:41 |
| nibsa1242b | b3n87: I understand. And if the results of a " sudo fdisk -l" were on pastebin I think I could be of further assistance. | 22:41 |
| noppe | is there a uml-tool that checks the validity of a created diagram? | 22:41 |
| thompa | Monobi: do you know what the problem might be? | 22:41 |
| soppman | Monobi, im more looking for something so i can acces X, like PC anywhere for windows | 22:41 |
| pwcca | ok | 22:41 |
| milkyboi | soppman, you can use putty | 22:41 |
| Monobi | thompa, yes, your hosts and hostname is messed up | 22:41 |
| pwcca | J_Humphrey: how would i know if it worked | 22:41 |
| b3n87 | nibsa1242b: okies, its big tho | 22:41 |
| Monobi | soppman, also look at WinSCP | 22:41 |
| pwcca | soppman: i use putty to get from my winto linux | 22:41 |
| prabs | lch: sure looks interesting, why didnt i find it before? :D thanks! | 22:41 |
| soppman | what? | 22:42 |
| MRambaldi | i guess, but what exactly what line to i actually right, sareth | 22:42 |
| thompa | Monobi: im just curious how, because never had that before | 22:42 |
| soppman | thats not what i want! | 22:42 |
| nibsa1242b | b3n87: thats what pastebin is for... big texts that would fill up chat | 22:42 |
| J_Humphrey | pwcca: you can try to connect to the internet with wireless now, I'm assuming you're doing these command on ubuntu, and are on a wired connection? | 22:42 |
| pwcca | theres also another one thatll act like an ftp client | 22:42 |
| lch | prabs: i didn't knew it either until one here sugested it to me :-) | 22:42 |
| Monobi | thompa, uh, pastebin your /etc/hosts and /etc/hostname file | 22:42 |
| soppman | i want to use see what i see on my linux computer on my windows computer!! | 22:42 |
| soppman | not just terminal | 22:42 |

| soppman | like an x-client | 22:42 |
| jonas3d | anyone know why even with all php stuff installed my server tries to force me to download the file instead of displaying it? | 22:42 |

| jrib | jonas3d: try the troubleshooting steps ubotu sent you | 22:43 |

| b3n87 | nibsa1242b: okies, my friend is just getting the output for me | 22:43 |
| sareth | does anyone have experience with ubuntu disk encryption? | 22:43 |

| achandrashekar | Hello all, | 22:43 |
| J_Humphrey | sareth: what do you mean? | 22:43 |

When I turn it on, right as it should display something, it will start too, then the screen will go black, then it will act like its going to again, but then it will just go black again. Some times it will eventually display the welcome screen, some times it will just remain black forever | 22:44 |
| achandrashekar | occasionaly my system wont boot up | 22:44 |

| ozzloy | is there an official torrent for ubuntu? | 22:45 |
| achandrashekar | wolf_: X11 issue... trying to find the correct horizontal and vertical sync rate of the monitor as well as possible video card issue. | 22:45 |

| wolf_ | Monobi, on both fedora and ubuntu it worked when i initially installed but after an update it does this | 22:45 |
| soppman | lch, do you know of such a vnc viewer? | 22:45 |
| achandrashekar | wolf_: you might wanna do a search against your card on google to see what setting works best. | 22:45 |
| Kyle__ | ozzloy: check on the mirrors, the torrent is in there | 22:45 |

| Ginetteann | Has anybody successfully installed Ubuntu onto a PS3 and managed to get Wifi working after the 2.0 firmware update? | 22:46 |
| wolf_ | achandrashekar, tried that had osmeone give me a similar config, i think its something else | 22:46 |

| Sergiu9 | like in gentoo or somehow.. | 22:48 |
| wolf_ | achandrashekar, im thinking it might even but an issue with the monitors driver | 22:48 |
| J-Unit | Wolf23, do u have msn? | 22:48 |
| netpirate | what version of python comes with ubuntu 8.4 ? | 22:48 |
| Monobi | thompa, the second line should be: 127.0.1.1 mardoz1 | 22:48 |
| Kyle__ | netpirate: check packages.ubuntu.com | 22:48 |
| Monobi | Just that, nothing else | 22:48 |
| Kyle__ | or distrowatch :) | 22:48 |
| netpirate | lol | 22:48 |
| wolf_ | achandrashekar, how do you get to xorg.conf in ubuntu? im used to fedora | 22:48 |

| achilles | hi 2 All | 22:49 |
| b3n87 | nibsa1242b: yes that is correct | 22:49 |
| deneme_ | hi | 22:49 |
| J_Humphrey | ultimate-: don't ask to ask, just ask :) | 22:49 |
| ultimate- | hello , i tried the new ubuntu 8 and install it within windows so it made avirtual partition and i rebooted and logged in fine , during the configuring while scanning mirriors for apt get it stucked there so i reset my pc and logged in it fine but the package manager is owned so i cant download package for media and etc | 22:49 |
| === voici is now known as wonderworld | ||
| achandrashekar | wolf_: open a console and cd to /etc/X11 | 22:49 |
| ozzloy | Kyle__: where are the mirrors you speak of? i see only rsync, ftp, and http, no torrents | 22:49 |
| wolf_ | achandrashekar, thanks | 22:49 |
| === dmb_ is now known as randomoutburst | ||
| achandrashekar | wolf_: then simply less the xorg.conf file. | 22:49 |
| Kyle__ | ozzloy: go to a http mirror | 22:49 |
| thompa | Monobi:i was transfering files from one pc to another and got that, thanks again | 22:49 |
| deneme_ | I upgraded server ubuntu but Halt gave initilization error. | 22:49 |
| achandrashekar | wolf_: I highly advise a backup of that file...lest you need to revert back to it before editing | 22:49 |

| endo_ | anyone have issues exiting full-screen mode w/rdesktop with 8.04? | 22:50 |
| q4a | hi all | 22:50 |
| achandrashekar | wolf_: that is simply done with a cp xorg.conf to xorg.conf.old....but i believe you need to be sudo su to do that. | 22:50 |
| Gnine | !sudo | ultimate- | 22:50 |
| ubotu | ultimate-: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more information. | 22:50 |
| ultimate- | J_Humphrey : upon installation from windows i rebooted and it was configriing files but was stucked on scanning mirror for apt get and the setup was stuck there | 22:50 |
| achandrashekar | wolf_: because that file is owned by root.. | 22:50 |
| Kyle__ | ozzloy: see if you can get a torrent from here http://torrent.ubuntu.com:6969/ | 22:50 |
| Agilo | how do you access the root account | 22:50 |
| Agilo | from terminal | 22:50 |
| ultimate- | ubotu : i think i fucked the installation | 22:50 |
| deneme_ | I upgraded server ubuntu but Halt gave initilization error. | 22:51 |
| J_Humphrey | ultimate-: how long did it get stuck? | 22:51 |
| randomoutburst | im using mozilla and ie, im on windows right now Ich | 22:51 |
| nibsa1242b | b3n87: he can probably manually mount /dev/sdb1 or /dev/sdb1p1 . I'm confused as to why fdisk -l shows sdb & sdb1pl1 as separate disks. I highly recommend mounting in read only mode when you test things. | 22:51 |

| milkyboi | deneme_: did you upgraded from a dapper draker server installation ? | 22:51 |
| J_Humphrey | Agilo: you put sudo in front of the commands, but be very careful sudo assumes you know what you are doing, so you can do a lot of damage | 22:51 |
| ultimate- | i have uninstalled it btw but will reinstall again and dont know what to do if it gets stucked again | 22:51 |

| Gnine | Musicalduck: try booting up in recovery mode, use fix xserver option, see if that works | 22:53 |
| KyleK | Agilo: how did you get a terminal without it? usually it sources /etc/profile | 22:53 |
| deneme_ | I upgraded from gutsy to hardy | 22:54 |
| lch | randomoutburst: what ip does you comuter have? you can check in a terminal window with "ifconfig" or "connection info" in the small screen icon right besides the clock in the toolbar | 22:54 |

| gnomefreak | pinno: compiz | 22:58 |
| pinno | ah kk | 22:58 |
| lch | howapt: so you ended up in a black text console? | 22:58 |
| milkyboi | deneme_: lol, did you check if grub was pointing to the right kernel ? | 22:58 |
| gnomefreak | compiz-fustion even i think | 22:59 |
| ketan_ | j_hump: it's a netgear wg311v3 with a marvel card. | 22:59 |
| pinno | so beryl themes wont work ? | 22:59 |
| Gnine | !beryl | pinno | 22:59 |
| ubotu | pinno: Beryl has been merged with Compiz to form Compiz-Fusion. New Beryl installs are discouraged. See also !compiz | 22:59 |
| milkyboi | deneme_: i assume hardyinstalled a newer kernel | 22:59 |
| gnomefreak | pinno: not likely beryl is obsolete | 22:59 |
| pinno | kk | 22:59 |
| J_Humphrey | ketan_ you can search google for that specific card name, and ubuntu, and there will probably be help files | 22:59 |
| gnomefreak | pinno: most of them are merged IIRC | 22:59 |
| deneme_ | ok what is the problem with this | 22:59 |
| milkyboi | deneme_: did you had some more details with dmesg or syslog ? | 22:59 |
| achandrashekar | wolf_: try changing the horizontal refresh rate to this - 30 kHz - 82 kHz | 22:59 |
| pinno | im new to ubunto and still learning alot | 22:59 |
| gnomefreak | deneme_: we need to know the issue first :) | 22:59 |
| J_Humphrey | ultimate-: are you on a laptop or desktop? | 23:00 |
| howapt | lch: no, I can swap between the console (tty3 etc) and my gui, I just want to know if I can set a program to run from one of those tty's into my gui | 23:00 |
| ubutom | noone ever downsized his desktop icons? | 23:00 |
| ketan_ | j_hump: it's not an installation issue, it seems like a configuration issue. | 23:00 |
| ultimate- | J_Humphrey desktop :) | 23:00 |
| wolf_ | achandrashekar, horizsync? | 23:00 |
| milkyboi | deneme_: does it even make it way to the login screen ? | 23:00 |
| sub-esc | apt-get search tomcat | 23:00 |
| ketan_ | j_hump: as I said the install using ndiswrapper was smooth. | 23:00 |
| achandrashekar | wolf_: so what you will do is this.... cp xorg.conf xorg.conf.old..... then vim xorg.conf......change horizsync | 23:00 |
| sub-esc | sorry, wrong window | 23:00 |
| deneme_ | does it even make it way to the login screen ? ??? | 23:00 |
| J_Humphrey | ketan_ are you sure you need ndiswrapper? | 23:00 |
| ketan_ | j_hump: yes. | 23:01 |
| === tronizk0 is now known as tronizk0p | ||
| lch | howapt: fine you know what you are doing. GUI apps need to know an X display. you can tell them one by using the DISPLAY envitonment variable. like "DISPLAY=:0 xterm" | 23:01 |
| achandrashekar | wolf_: and the vertical sync rate to this - 56 Hz - 76 Hz | 23:01 |
| nibsa1242b | b3n87: no, no luck... other then people who have drives that show up that way seem to have difficulty reading, mounting, or getting programs to recongize them | 23:01 |
| achandrashekar | wolf_: then restart X11 | 23:01 |
| tronizk0p | hi...how can i remove all gnome packages with apt on ubuntu? | 23:01 |
| Gnine | a quick method to fix xserver issues is to boot up in recovery mode and choose fix xserver option | 23:01 |
| gnomefreak | deneme_: do you see the usplash screen (one that says ubuntu with orange line moving) or to login screen (wher eyou type name and password) | 23:02 |
| Ginetteann | PS3? Wifi? Linux? Has anybody managed it? | 23:02 |
| deneme_ | I saw there is no problem with login screen | 23:02 |
| howapt | lch: So "firefox DISPLAY=:7 xterm" in tty3 for example would load firefox into my gui (on 7)?? | 23:02 |
| cius | I backed up my entire home directory to an internal backup driver before installing Hardy. Now that Hardy is installed, I mount that drive and find nothing in it except for a .Trash file contain the torrent I used to download Hardy. Anyone have a clue what's going on? | 23:02 |
| wolf_ | achandrashekar, one sec for some reason it wont let me log in as SU | 23:02 |
| gnomefreak | Ginetteann: ps3+wifi not sure but both seperate i have seen people set up | 23:02 |
| deneme_ | gnomefreak, but after installition of programs I took these errors. | 23:02 |
| achandrashekar | wolf_: when you sudo su | 23:02 |
| ubutom | tronizk0p: sudo aptitude remove gnome-desktop should take everything else with it. | 23:03 |
| achandrashekar | wolf_: ?? | 23:03 |
| b3n87 | nibsa1242b: oh ok, thanks for your help tho | 23:03 |
| wolf_ | achandrashekar, su - | 23:03 |
| gnomefreak | ubutom: not really | 23:03 |
| milkyboi | deneme_: you can check with syslog if you have any errors while you're logged in | 23:03 |
| lch | howapt: almost.. " DISPLAY=:0 firefox" should work. even if the console 7 is the GUI, x starts counting at zero :-) | 23:03 |
| deneme_ | gnomefreak, and halt doesn't initilazed | 23:03 |
| gnomefreak | ubutom: its ubuntu-desktop | 23:03 |
| milkyboi | deneme_: just in case | 23:03 |
| wolf_ | achandrashekar, su: Authentication failure... somethings wrong though, that is the right password. It works on " install files" lol | 23:03 |
| achandrashekar | wolf_: this not the live cd right? | 23:03 |
| ubutom | gnomefreak: he wants to remove all gnome packages.... | 23:03 |
| wolf_ | achandrashekar, nope it isnt | 23:03 |
| gnomefreak | deneme_: you get halt error when installing apps? | 23:03 |
| deneme_ | yes | 23:03 |
| sub-esc | how do i know which tomcat packages to install? | 23:03 |
| cius | Why would Hardy not automatically configure /boot/grub/menu.lst to point to my XP installation? | 23:03 |
| Ginetteann | gnomefreak, know of anybody installing a Linux distro onto a PS3 system after the 2.0 firmware update and manging to get the Wifi working? | 23:03 |
| achandrashekar | wolf_: and does it complain of the damn hostname is wrong issue? | 23:03 |
| gnomefreak | ubutom: libgtk* should do it replace * with current versioned name | 23:04 |
| ketan_ | anyone who knows some wifi stuff here ? | 23:04 |
| gnomefreak | Ginetteann: no i havent | 23:04 |
| wolf_ | achandrashekar, nahh it just says password: su: authentication failure. Sorry. | 23:04 |
| deneme_ | gnomefreak, yes | 23:04 |
| howapt | lch: Many thanks | 23:04 |
| howapt | Ich: :) | 23:04 |
| wolf_ | achandrashekar, as if it is the wrong password, but it isn't | 23:04 |
| howapt | lch: :) | 23:04 |
| tronizk0p | ubutom: thxs i did a apt-get remove --purge gnome-desktop* and it work ;) | 23:04 |
| gnomefreak | deneme_: that cant be good. what apps are you installing? | 23:04 |
| Ginetteann | Thanks anyway, gnomefreak . | 23:04 |
| gnomefreak | Ginetteann: np | 23:04 |
| deneme_ | any apps make installing halt error | 23:05 |
| achandrashekar | wolf_:? weird...i had an issue when i upgraded..and bitched about my hostname..it doesnt sound like the same issue though | 23:05 |
| gnomefreak | deneme_: did you try rebooting? | 23:05 |
| deneme_ | i need restart ubuntu server to | 23:05 |
| deneme_ | get normal | 23:05 |
| J_Humphrey | ultimate-: can you run lspci -nn | grep VGA in termical? | 23:05 |
| tronizk0p | when someone upgrade's an ubuntu version, the old version stuff get's clean (auto) or there's a way to clean old kernels and all that stuff? | 23:05 |
| wolf_ | achandrashekar, this is starting to piss me off... it will let me log in as root on other things but not in console | 23:05 |
| deneme_ | gnomefreak, but this is not normal isn't it? | 23:05 |
| Da_Putzler | Q) Is Gnome-Keyring-Manager actually needed in Hardy now ??? | 23:05 |

| wolf_ | achandrashekar, ... how why not? it does in fedora :p | 23:09 |
| deneme_ | gnomefreak, why? | 23:09 |
| theholyduck | achandrashekar, sure it will you just need to do sudo su | 23:09 |
| theholyduck | :P | 23:09 |
| Rafeiro | so... | 23:09 |
| theholyduck | instead of su | 23:09 |
| Rafeiro | anyway to install ubuntu on a nvidia striped raid0 ? | 23:09 |
| Musicalduck | hello, i cant get ubuntu to load without either random colours and flashing blocks or the error message 'Failed to open framebuffer device' picking the fix xserver option in recovery mode doesn't help | 23:09 |
| Rafeiro | or why is it so sensitive to fail? | 23:09 |
| Da_Putzler | demon: goto www.getdeb.net and type amsn in the search box, it'll give you a .deb file to download containing the latest | 23:09 |
| gnomefreak | deneme_: failing to halt on laptop ive seen on desktop i havent | 23:09 |

| deneme_ | I install ubuntu-desktop to server | 23:10 |
| achandrashekar | wolf_: anywhoooo sudo su is good to go and that is equivalent | 23:10 |
| flyback | no luck | 23:10 |
| wolf_ | achandrashekar, ok sorry one more time what was the command to change the horizsync? | 23:10 |
| ubutom | Odd-rationale: If you already have an user account there, it should suffice to login with your user-account. it uses ssh, so it should work | 23:10 |
| gnomefreak | deneme_: try to install it again with sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop maybe failure during install | 23:10 |
| theholyduck | deneme_, as i remember. that doesnt work too well :P | 23:10 |

| troythetechguy | I'm looking for a batch processing application for pictures and came across Phatch. I can't find Phatch in the repositories, but is it safe, good? | 23:12 |

| mkquist | well at least it runs... lol | 23:12 |
| deneme_ | gnomefreak, some programs maybe did this? | 23:12 |
| Odd-rationale | ubutom: ok. i'll try... | 23:12 |

| xian | hi, where should i put commands that i want to execute whenever the X server starts up? | 23:27 |
| elint | gnomefreak: you see, i installed a random plug-in (btw I just got Hardy up and running), and I began having problems. Then, I decided to install the official Adobe Flash Player, and it now seems that the older plug-in is taking precedence. Btw, this is my first stab at Linux | 23:28 |
| xian | ~/.xinit seems to be the wrong place. | 23:28 |
| achandrashekar | wolf_: did that work ?? | 23:28 |
| NeoGeo64 | I am attempting to install 8.04 thru Wubi but during the image creation process it says it cannot access the CD, I click retry, it starts over. Repeat. | 23:28 |
| anotherfinemess | whoever knows what may be causing high iowait in hardy pls msg me... | 23:28 |
| Wyzard | anotherfinemess: If I understand correctly, iowait is really just idle time as far as the CPU is concerned | 23:28 |

| pushpop | bruenig, thx | 23:29 |
| gnomefreak | elint: nothing i can help you with if your not using our packages | 23:29 |
| Wyzard | pushpop: tar doesn't compress things -- that's done by things like gzip or bzip2 | 23:29 |
| foxhop | NeoGeo64 are you using and iso or a real burnt cd? | 23:29 |
| tiltedwindmills | trying to bind a usb device to vmware workstation. is there anyway I can blacklist the device from the host (ubuntu 7.10) | 23:29 |

| ubutom | Odd-rationale: As I said, I have a user account on that other machine, i login there with the password that user has on the remote machine, and it works. Didnt have to add a user there | 23:44 |
| Za1 | I'm kind of scared of trying something different | 23:44 |
| zelrikriando | Pelo: Intel 945GM | 23:44 |
| gnomefreak | deneme_: if you feel dangours try to run sudo apt-get install acpid | 23:44 |
| Odd-rationale | ubutom: what did you use as hostname? | 23:44 |
| gnomefreak | but just remember to move it with dpkg -r if it errors again | 23:45 |
| zelrikriando | Pelo: I remember kinda managing to make it work on the 7.10 | 23:45 |
| Pelo | zelrikriando, sudo dpgk-reconfigure xserver-xorg did n'T help ? | 23:45 |
| Za1 | because I've already reinstalled ubuntu 3 times due to deletion of files that I needed when trying to install nvidia drivers and trying to get them working | 23:45 |
| arrrghhh | where's the autostart location in ubuntu? in kubuntu i put it in /etc/kde3/kdm/Xsetup... i'm trying to run x11vnc at login so i can login to machines remotely. worked great in kubuntu. | 23:45 |
| deneme_ | gnomefreak, I installed | 23:45 |
| deneme_ | acpid | 23:45 |
| ubutom | Odd-rationale: its a way back, I dont remember if i had to set up something, but im pretty sure i didnt have to add a user. | 23:45 |
| === Za1 is now known as Zacaa | ||
| iSplicer | Could someone please direct me into a channel for "OTHER OS" talk? | 23:45 |
| zelrikriando | Pelo: I did it with -phigh or something | 23:45 |
| foxhop | isplicer: It worked out of box for me...I have it on board with a gigabyte brand moba | 23:45 |
| kklimonda | Wyzard: any difference besides name? | 23:45 |
| getisboy | is there a way to use an offset that is not in blocks with dd? | 23:45 |
| gnomefreak | deneme_: than your problem is fixed go play with it as you wish :) | 23:45 |
| Odd-rationale | ubutom: ok. Thanks for the help. I'll try reading some more documentation... | 23:45 |
| iSplicer | foxhop: whats ur mobo version? | 23:45 |
| ubutom | Odd-rationale: In my case its the name of the remote server, i call it PIII for the Pentium III Coppermine inside ;-) | 23:45 |
| deneme_ | gnomefreak, no not all | 23:46 |
| alexbe01 | zelrikriando, -phigh is just the high priority parts (video card and resolution) | 23:46 |
| Pelo | zelrikriando, ok I assume you added the extra rez you needed in the xorg.conf file ? have you also changed the horiz sync range to include the horizontal sync of your monitor ? | 23:46 |
| howapt | iSplicer: sperm | 23:46 |
| julia | $exit | 23:46 |
| gnomefreak | deneme_: your problem isnt fixed? | 23:46 |
| deneme_ | I took these error after installion acpid | 23:46 |
| Wyzard | kklimonda: The -server kernel is built with support for PAE (that's the +4GB support) and various other things that make it more suitable for a server workload | 23:46 |
| Wyzard | kklimonda: I don't know the details | 23:46 |
| gnomefreak | deneme_: than sudo dpkg -r acpid | 23:46 |
| julia | #quit | 23:46 |
| * Pelo isn'T even paying attention to the chanel | 23:46 | |
| gnomefreak | deneme_: and never look back | 23:46 |
| nonewmsgs | how can i be sure that hardy is using the correct horizontal/vertical refresh rates | 23:46 |
| zelrikriando | Pelo: well yeah..for the sync I am not sure | 23:46 |
| gnomefreak | deneme_: acpid really isnt needed | 23:47 |
| kklimonda | ok, i'll check configs. i thought there is some obvious difference like "lack of nvidia module" or something :] | 23:47 |
| ubutom | Odd-rationale: Anyway, nx is a nice thing.... its better than vnc imo | 23:47 |
| foxhop | I don't recall, Im not at home isplicer | 23:47 |
| zelrikriando | Pelo: you wanna see my backup of my xorg.conf (the one I had on 7.10 that is) ? | 23:47 |
| Odd-rationale | ubutom: seems faster... | 23:47 |
| nonewmsgs | zelrikriando, i do | 23:47 |
| zelrikriando | ok | 23:47 |
| Pelo | zelrikriando, get the value for H from the label on the back of the monitor or from the specs on the maker's website and increase the range iin xorg,conf under device Monitor , horizsync is the value | 23:48 |
| fayetteson | can someone help me with the brown screen of death i have my xorg.0 log file | 23:48 |
| LSG | Is Fusion-Icon just for Hardy? I can't seem to find it with Gutsy... | 23:48 |
| Pelo | zelrikriando, sure, pastebin it | 23:48 |
| Wyzard | Zacaa: I'm pretty sure that your problem is not related to X configuration; it's that the nVidia kernel module isn't being loaded | 23:48 |
| RAdams | Is there anyway I can try connecting to a wireless network via terminal, and get a verbose output of what it is doing, so I can see where the failure occurs? | 23:48 |
| Pelo | zelrikriando, and pastebin your current | 23:48 |
| ubutom | Odd-rationale: It is :-) | 23:48 |
| shameless | did they throw in tablet-pc support into hardy? | 23:48 |
| deneme_ | gnomefreak, why acpid gave this error? | 23:48 |
| zelrikriando | Pelo : my backup : http://pastebin.com/m46d02a6a | 23:48 |
| macd | RAdams, /var/log/syslog has what network-manager is doing. | 23:48 |
| Wyzard | Zacaa: However, I'm unable to test this, because when I rename my copy of the nVidia module (so it can't be loaded, to try to duplicate your problem) and reboot, something puts it back :-/ | 23:48 |
| RAdams | macd: thanks | 23:48 |
| Zacaa | Oh, thats strange | 23:49 |
| deneme_ | gnomefreak, dpkg: error processing acpid (--configure): subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 1Errors were encountered while processing: acpid | 23:49 |
| gnomefreak | deneme_: its the package something is wrong with it | 23:49 |
| gnomefreak | deneme_: sudo dpkg -r acpid | 23:49 |
| Zacaa | well right now I have a clean fresh newly installed ubuntu 8.04 and I haven't done anything driver wise yet | 23:49 |
| zelrikriando | Pelo : my current : http://pastebin.com/m569c969 | 23:49 |
| deneme_ | gnomefreak, it will not break system will it? :) | 23:49 |
| Pelo | zelrikriando, hold on | 23:49 |
| Wyzard | Zacaa: You said earlier that your Driver line in xorg.conf says "nvidia", right? | 23:49 |
| Gary_inNYC | Does Hardy require imwheel for Nautilus mouse for/back navigation? | 23:49 |
| Zacaa | I really wish that I could get it working but Wyzard did you read my post on ubuntu forums? | 23:50 |
| zelrikriando | Pelo ok | 23:50 |
| ezzieyguywu1 | when i trigger suspend in ubuntu, I want it to run "metacity --replace" before it starts suspending and "compiz --replace" after it resumes. can someone help me with this? I tried editing "/usr/sbin/pm-suspend" with "metacity --replace &" in the first line in order to accomlish the first half of this, but it does not seem to be working. any ideas? | 23:50 |
| Zacaa | yes it says nvidia | 23:50 |
| Wyzard | Zacaa: no, I didn't | 23:50 |
| mrphreak | hello world! | 23:50 |
| algyz | Why I can't see minimized items, like skype or transmission? | 23:50 |
| gnomefreak | deneme_: no its not needed | 23:50 |
| Wyzard | Zacaa: Does /usr/lib/xorg/modules/drivers/nvidia_drv.so exist? | 23:50 |
| iSplicer | Hey guys, do i need to install or configure anything to watch Xvid avi movies that I get off the internet? What is the best player for that? | 23:50 |
| psycardis | Ok, I was told to add a line to /etc/modprobe.conf.local, and can't find that file | 23:50 |
| iSplicer | and will they work with subs? | 23:50 |
| howapt | iSplicer: sperm | 23:50 |
| algyz | Minimizing and they're disappearing :( | 23:50 |
| iSplicer | sperm?? | 23:50 |
| Zacaa | well they wouldn't exist right now as I haven't installed nvidia yet, I've just reinstalled ubuntu | 23:50 |
| foxhop | isplicer: Download VLC from | 23:50 |
| howapt | lol | 23:50 |
| zelrikriando | nonewmsgs: my current : http://pastebin.com/m569c969 , my backup : http://pastebin.com/m46d02a6a in case you missed the link :) | 23:51 |
| ezzieyguywu1 | algyz : click on your bottom panel, go to "add to panel" and drag window list to the far left of the panel | 23:51 |
| Gary_inNYC | algyz: are you sure they're not at the tray? | 23:51 |
| foxhop | isplicer: its for linux and windows | 23:51 |
| === bod_ is now known as Bodsda | ||
| algyz | I mean not like minimized, but in gutsy, when I was closing them, I would see them :( | 23:51 |
| ezzieyguywu1 | algyz: if you don't have the bottom panel, right click on the top one and click "New Panel" at that point a new one will appear at the bottom of your screen | 23:51 |
| Wyzard | Zacaa: When you "install nvidia", what exactly do you do? | 23:51 |
| algyz | ezzieyguywu1: I have all panels :) | 23:52 |
| howapt | iSplicer: spermx | 23:52 |
| ezzieyguywu1 | algyz: oh. i think that means you don't have compiz enabled | 23:52 |
| algyz | Minimizing is OK, but they're disappearing from top panel :/ | 23:52 |
| ezzieyguywu1 | :-D | 23:52 |
| ubuntu | #ubuntu-it-doc | 23:52 |
| psycardis | Ok, I was told to add a line to /etc/modprobe.conf.local, and can't find that file | 23:52 |
| Zacaa | First I did it with envy, and that never worked, then I went into synaptic and installed it via that, didn't work, then I downloaded the NVIDIA*.run file from the website | 23:52 |
| iSplicer | is spermx a channel that I must joinn? | 23:52 |
| Zacaa | and that never worked either | 23:52 |
| algyz | Desktop effects are normal | 23:52 |
| LSG | Is Fusion-Icon just for Hardy? I can't seem to find it with Gutsy... | 23:52 |
| ubuntu | joi #ubuntu-it-doc | 23:52 |
| iSplicer | spermx is empty channel | 23:52 |
| Gary_inNYC | i want to enable mouse forward/back navigation in Nautilus... do I need to install imwheel and edit xorg.conf like I did in gutsy? | 23:53 |
| Wyzard | Zacaa: Using nVidia's .run file is wrong on Ubuntu, and envy probably is too | 23:53 |
| ezzieyguywu1 | algyz: then unfortunately i don't think i understand your problem | 23:53 |
| Pelo | zelrikriando, do you realise that your current xorg.conf does not have anything in it about yoru videocard ? | 23:53 |
| Zacaa | each time that I installed the drivers. I would reboot and upon start up I would get that little window pop up in X that would say that my screen and card did not get detected | 23:53 |
| Wyzard | Zacaa: On the System->Administration menu, choose "Hardware Drivers" | 23:53 |
| Zacaa | and I could either do it manually (which never worked) or just continue into gnome without drivers | 23:53 |
| fayetteson | i am getting the brown screen of death sinc i upgraded from gutsy to 8.04 | 23:53 |
| psycardis | wyzard: I've used envy for a couple years now and have never had an issue | 23:53 |
| decay | !lamp | 23:53 |
| ubotu | LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP. However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL. For help with setting up LAMP on Ubuntu, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP - See also the Server CD installation process (different in Edgy+) | 23:53 |
| Wyzard | Zacaa: What do you see in that window? | 23:53 |
| algyz | I'll try to explain | 23:53 |
| gnomefreak | Wyzard: envy still breaks systems if they want to upgrade and last i heard not supported at this time | 23:53 |
| arrrghhh | where's the autostart location in ubuntu? in kubuntu i put it in /etc/kde3/kdm/Xsetup... i'm trying to run x11vnc at login so i can login to machines remotely. worked great in kubuntu. | 23:53 |
| zelrikriando | Pelo , good point | 23:53 |
| Zacaa | Yes I've done that too | 23:53 |
| Pelo | zelrikriando, and that the stuff for your monitor is just generic | 23:53 |
| Zacaa | but I will tell you now | 23:54 |
| zelrikriando | Pelo : so what should I do | 23:54 |
| Apiman | could someone help me upgrading hardy?? please | 23:54 |
| Pelo | zelrikriando, copy paste the section for your monitor and your video card from the old one to the new one and restart x | 23:54 |
| Zacaa | it says nvidia_new | 23:54 |
| Wyzard | gnomefreak: since you apparently have experience with it, and I don't: does it actually use packages, or is it just an alternative to the .run? | 23:54 |
| Pelo | zelrikriando, backup first | 23:54 |
| Zacaa | enabled is ticked, but it's status is "not in use" | 23:54 |
| algyz | When I'm closing, for example, transmission, it is completely disappearing, but still running, while in gutsy the was icon at top panel | 23:54 |
| zelrikriando | Pelo the old one wasnt working either | 23:54 |
| gnomefreak | Wyzard: envy runs the .run script from nvidia | 23:54 |
| Wyzard | Zacaa: OK, close that window for a moment | 23:54 |
| Pelo | zelrikriando, oh | 23:54 |
| LainIwakura | algyz: did you check its settings? | 23:55 |
| algyz | In gutsy I clicked this icon and transmission appeared again | 23:55 |
| howapt | algyz: sperm | 23:55 |
| gnomefreak | Wyzard: saves you one step maybe adds one step to installing them | 23:55 |
| super61 | hello, how can i add more screen resolutions? | 23:55 |
| algyz | The same with skype :( | 23:55 |
| zelrikriando | Pelo: but I agree the new seems...light | 23:55 |
| Zacaa | ok | 23:55 |
| Wyzard | Zacaa: Open a terminal and run "apt-cache show nvidia-glx" -- do you get any output? | 23:55 |
| zelrikriando | :/ | 23:55 |
| LainIwakura | algyz: check show icon in system tray | 23:55 |
| tokah_ | hey, i messed with my xmms server setting by mistake in esperanza now it wont opne to let me fix it | 23:55 |
| LainIwakura | algyz: in preferences | 23:55 |
| psycardis | !hardy | 23:55 |
| ubotu | Hardy Heron is the codename for the current release of Ubuntu (8.04-LTS) You can get it now from http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu but please use !torrents | 23:55 |
| gnomefreak | Wyzard: envy doesnt remove the nvidia modules that the .run builds though and ther ein lies the problem with supporting it | 23:55 |
| Zacaa | nope, nothing Wyzard | 23:55 |
| Pelo | zelrikriando, still copy everyting from line 99 to 128 and paste in place of 42 to 69 | 23:55 |
| * gnomefreak gone :) | 23:55 | |
| howapt | algyz: sperm | 23:55 |
| algyz | LainIwakura: of transmission? | 23:55 |
| zelrikriando | Pelo : ok | 23:55 |
| zelrikriando | brb | 23:55 |
| LainIwakura | algyz: yes | 23:55 |
| Wyzard | Zacaa: OK, you're encountering a bug that I found yesterday: for some reason the package lists didn't get downloaded during installation, and the Hardware Drivers window doesn't work right without them | 23:56 |
| algyz | no such preference | 23:56 |
| psycardis | Ok, I was told to add a line to /etc/modprobe.conf.local, and can't find that file can anybody help me? | 23:56 |
| Pelo | zelrikriando, and it looks noting like mine anyway but I don'T have a lcd so that might be an issue | 23:56 |
| Wyzard | Zacaa: Fom that terminal window, run "sudo apt-get update", and when it's done, open the Hardware Drivers window again | 23:56 |
| LainIwakura | algyz: edit > preferences > options | 23:56 |
| howapt | algyz: sperm | 23:56 |
| Wyzard | gnomefreak: thanks, that's good to know... so basically it's wrong to use on Ubuntu | 23:56 |
| LainIwakura | algyz: what version of transmission are you using? | 23:56 |
| algyz | LainIwakura: it checked | 23:56 |
| LainIwakura | !etiquette | howapt | 23:56 |

| taquitos | hello, can anybody tell me how to install this .tar.gz ? It's located on my desktop in Ubuntu 8.04. VMware-server-1.0.5-80187.tar.gz | 23:57 |
| howapt | LainIwakura: It was an honest suggestion! | 23:57 |
| algyz | Generally seems, that hardy still in beta version :( | 23:57 |
| Wyzard | taquitos: Unzip it and run the vmware-install.pl script inside | 23:57 |
| LainIwakura | algyz: closing as in clicking the X on the top right corner? | 23:57 |
| Wyzard | taquitos: Keep in mind that VMware isn't really supported here | 23:57 |
| macd | taquitos, I think you should try reading the vmware documentation first. | 23:57 |
| algyz | LainIwakura: yes | 23:57 |
| psycardis | I was told to add a line to /etc/modprobe.conf.local, and can't find that file can someone help me? | 23:58 |
| deneme_ | !language | 23:58 |
| ubotu | Please watch your language and topic to help keep this channel family friendly. | 23:58 |
| algyz | LainIwakura: earlier it stayed in system tray, but not now | 23:58 |
| osotogari | has anyone connected their xbox to their machine via ethernet to share their wireless connection to the internet? | 23:58 |
| arrrghhh | anyone? startup for ubuntu? sessions -> startup items didn't work. | 23:58 |
| Zacaa | Wyzard, I actually can't access the internet to download at this very moment but I will be able to later. Would it be all right if we spoke later about this when I am able to download? | 23:58 |
| psycardis | taquitos I garantee that if you google it you will find help | 23:58 |
| howapt | not sure how my sperm suggestion was unacceptable | 23:59 |
| LainIwakura | algyz: that's odd. it does stay in systray for me. i have "show an icon in system tray" checked and also "confirm quit". maybe check those and restart transmission. see if the problem persists | 23:59 |
| melee | So I can just ask questions here, right? | 23:59 |
| Wyzard | Zacaa: I should be around, though I can't make any guarantees | 23:59 |
| taquitos | psycardis, i did, and i didn't. | 23:59 |
| CloudFX | melee: yes u can! | 23:59 |
| SeaPhor_ | amenado, hey you told me to take notes??? check this out when you get time :-)) http://www.wood-bee-co.com/woodbeeco/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=39&Itemid=63 | 23:59 |
| Wyzard | Zacaa: but basically, once you do "apt-get update", the Hardware Drivers window should work correctly | 23:59 |
| melee | Okay, well I got an odd issue | 23:59 |
| psycardis | that's funny because I installed it last week after I googled and found instructions | 23:59 |
| Wyzard | Zacaa: In particular, the "enabled" checkbox will be unchecked, and when you check it, it'll install the necessary software and tell you to reboot | 23:59 |
| algyz | I'll try to restart gnome | 23:59 |
| melee | I can't browse folders I'm sharing on my windows computer | 23:59 |
| Wyzard | Zacaa: and then it should work :-) | 23:59 |
| foxhop | taquitos: That is a zip file | 23:59 |
| psycardis | I was told to add a line to /etc/modprobe.conf.local, and can't find that file can someone help me? | 23:59 |
