| adriaan_ | con-man: some gtk players are listen, exaile, banshee or quod libet | 00:09 |
| ifireball | cornell: ubuntu's bash for example is set to show "user@machine: directory" at the title of the terminal | 00:09 |
| mophead | #pidgin | 00:09 |
| FastZ | con-man, amarok is a good media player, VLC is good, Rhythmbox is decent, Banshee is good | 00:09 |
| con-man | adriaan_: whats the most popular | 00:09 |
| adriaan_ | con-man personally I prefer quod libet, it has good tagging support and a reasonably configurable interface | 00:10 |
| ifireball | cornell: just do some digging in your bash dotfiles the trick is with the way the prompt is set up | 00:10 |
| zionpsyfer | con-man: If you're looking for a music / media player, the application synaptic has listings of various applications. Media players being among them. You can find synaptic in System->Administration->Synaptic | 00:10 |
| aLeSD | hi all | 00:10 |
| adriaan_ | con-man: I'm not sure which is most popular, but I'd guess exaile, because it is basically an amarok clone for gtk | 00:10 |
| Barbara | Hello | 00:10 |
| cornell | Well, yes, but it's the machine that the terminal is running on... I should've explained I seek the machine name that I'm ssh'd into. | 00:10 |

| aLeSD | thanks | 00:11 |
| zionpsyfer | aLeSD: avant-window-navigator might also work for you | 00:12 |
| ifireball | cornell: you just need to setup the shell on the target machine properly, the shell can sent the terminal window a "command" to set the title regardless of where its running | 00:12 |

| jason0_ | Is it possible to install 32bit firefox + jre with 64bit hardy? I followed the instructions but no dice. | 00:52 |

| linux_trojan | in mandrake there is a command line that tells you the version | 00:52 |

| satokun | danbhfive: I'm unable to access the drive where I installed the new version (through the old verson that still works fine), it prompts me for a password but then it just removes the drive and doesn't display. Would I have better luck running a naut through gksudo? | 00:52 |
| linux_trojan | I was hoping that Ubuntu had the same command line | 00:53 |

| VJ_Vis | Hey guys. I'm running 8.04, upgraded from 7.10. Can anyone tell me why my mouse cursor disappears whenever I either open a program or visit a url in firefox? Any sort of "load time" will cause the pointer to disappear until it's finished. | 00:54 |
| danbhfive | satokun: well, if you can't even access the drive (I assume you don't mean partition), then I would say thats your first problem. You gota figure out a way to access that drive | 00:54 |
| eboyjr | DistroJockey, I do , lol! | 00:54 |
| DistroJockey | eboyjr, :) | 00:54 |
| ibleed | ShadowBelmolve, no cussing here and i'm sure the channel rules are against illegal activities as well | 00:54 |
| Simonf1 | mneptok: that did not work | 00:54 |
| blah569 | How do you use the "kill" function? If I type, "kill firefox," it tells me that is incorrect. How would I "kill" the Firefox process? | 00:54 |
| mneptok | fde: "should be?" | 00:54 |

| danbhfive | blah569: pkill | 00:54 |
| zaussome | What does that mean? | 00:54 |
| Kakurady | blah569: you need to know the process id of Firefox to use kill. | 00:54 |
| Danish989 | vj_vis: might be your graphic card or it's drivers? is compiz fusion working fine? | 00:54 |
| Simonf1 | mneptok: bash: export: `=/home/simon/Python': not a valid identifier | 00:54 |

| blah569 | thanks | 00:55 |
| Danish989 | zaussome: what are you trying to do? | 00:55 |
| mneptok | Simonf1: you have to use the same temrinal window, or add the export to your shell's environment. | 00:55 |
| eboyjr | It works now | 00:55 |
| VJ_Vis | Danish989: Yes, compiz works fine. | 00:55 |

| DistroJockey | eboyjr, you're welcome | 00:55 |
| satokun | danbhfive: drive/partition are the same thing except for the older install. I'm going to go try accessing it working as root. (I may have just needed to talk it out...) | 00:55 |

| Danish989 | VJ_Vis: I'm not sure .. I have the same sort of problem too though, audio also starts breaking up on load times | 00:55 |
| mneptok | fde: lsb_release, yes. you were saying "lsb_version," which has never existed. | 00:55 |
| ShadowBelmolve | ibleed, he have asked for this, to prove what he is the "Guru of Security" | 00:56 |

| VJ_Vis | Danish989: I don't have any audio issues thankfully, but the pointer disappearing is a little irritating at times. | 00:56 |
| mneptok | fde: "lsb_version" is not | 00:56 |
| linux_trojan | lsb_version is the one that works | 00:56 |

| Danish989 | Richar1: add/remove is the list of what you have installed and what not | 01:22 |
| Danish989 | Richar1: synaptic package manager lets you search for and install packages and software | 01:23 |
| satokun | danbhfive: http://paste.ubuntu.com/9333 | 01:23 |
| danbhfive | richar1: they use a similar backend, the difference is what-you-see-is-what-you-get | 01:23 |
| Pelo | Wolf23, just play with the settings on your monitor , this has notnig to do with xorg | 01:23 |
| Starnestommy | richar1: synaptic manages software packages, the update manager updates installed software, and the add/remove program is a very simple frontend to synaptic | 01:23 |
| Danish989 | Richar1: update manager is for instaling what you already have | 01:23 |

| satokun | danbhfive: sorta. It asks me what drives have boot priority. I put the old at the top, I can boot the old. I put the new at the top, I error out. Oddly enough if the drive that has home is detected it errors out no matter what. But if I leave it undetected in the bios and run old, it shows up and works just fine. a headscratcher. | 01:47 |
| Pelo | jawbrey, this is your first time installing ubuntu /lnux ? just make some unallocated space for ubuntu to install on , and use the guided install , let it make it's own choice, you'll need a bit of time running ubuntu to understand the partitionnning stuff, you can always chagne it later, for now, just let the installer do it | 01:47 |

| Jabroni5 | i have an ATI x1900 w/ probs on HH Chris | 01:55 |
| TheLastDodo | jawbrey: Well, it's been a while since I installed Ubuntu, but I'd do this: manually resize your Windows partition. Once you've done that, you'll have some free space. Quit the installer and fire it up again. This time, it'll detect the free space and give you an option to use that for your Linux and swap partitions. Use that and your Windows installation will be untouched. | 01:55 |
| USN1520 | voil, disconnect the wired connection, left click on the monitor at the top right taskbar and select your ap then put your key in | 01:56 |
| voi1 | tried that there is nothing there | 01:56 |
| paulcros | USN1520, I installed the bum you mentioned. But its not what I wanted. I want to configure applications instead of services. | 01:56 |

| meheren | bazhang, sorry I have a pcmcia card in my laptop and I am trying to remove it to insert a second one, to run lspci on it | 02:03 |
| bazhang | anoble you need to specify exactly what you want to do and then those who know will answer-->that is non-simple process-->what is your end goal | 02:03 |
| miyarstim | Mattevt, or "extract tar bz" | 02:03 |
| TheLastDodo | harris: Meh, nevermind, misread and mixed up your name with another. | 02:03 |
| ahave_ | UnityDivide, yes. nvidia geforce 7 series | 02:03 |
| tenju | I have one HD it has Windows partition, Swap Partition, and EXt3 | 02:03 |
| satokun | danbhfive: yes. both for 7.10 and 8.04 | 02:03 |
| bazhang | meheren: best to power down; hot-plugging one of those could cook your motherboard | 02:03 |
| UnityDivide | ahave_, do you know which version? | 02:04 |
| USN1520 | voil, good luck | 02:04 |
| mrichman | Anyone know why users-admin is not challenging me for my password? I tried gksu and sudo...same thing | 02:04 |
| UnityDivide | ahave_, which version of the nvidia driver you are using that is | 02:04 |
| mark[oz] | please, someone must have set up raid1 in ubuntu before? | 02:04 |
| voi1 | :'( | 02:04 |
| ahave_ | UnityDivide, should be most recent.. but how can i check? | 02:04 |
| Punko3 | Hey guys | 02:04 |
| Starnestommy | mrichman: you probably ran something else that needed gksudo or sudo a few minutes before runing users-admin | 02:04 |
| tenju | http://pastebin.com/m6d6b8904 This is what I"m getting from Fdisk | 02:04 |
| shane2peru | mrichman, running what command? | 02:04 |
| TheLastDodo | Afraid not, mark[oz]. Come back in 10 minutes or so and ask. This place gets a ton of traffic, someone who's on then may know. | 02:05 |
| tenju | but yet when i try to root (hd0,4) it says its invalid Device | 02:05 |
| bazhang | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RaidConfigurationHowto mark[oz] please see this | 02:05 |
| bfallik | does "uhci_hcd 0000:00:1d.2: host controller process error, something bad happened!" on Hardy mean I have a hardware problem? | 02:05 |
| mrichman | shane2peru: trying to run users-admin | 02:05 |
| tenju | earthsound: yes i have | 02:05 |
| mrichman | shane2peru: the app runs, i just dont get superuser | 02:05 |
| Punko3 | What type of system is best to use ubuntu, because anytime I try to boot it on my compaq or my dell laptop, it takes forever and never loads. | 02:06 |
| shane2peru | mrichman, ohh, because it has a new unlock feature you will notice that it is locked when you open it. | 02:06 |
| bfallik | i've looked around but found few recent breadcrumbs of similar problems | 02:06 |
| anoble | Ok, im trying to setup this computer that has 3 NIC's to work as a "network Bridge" to the other Windows XP Pro Computer, when i plugin a cable from my router to any of the NICs they work, but when plugging in a cable from This Computer to the other computer it doesnt work, and the lights dont light up and neither computers read them. I want to setup "network bridging" using ip tables | 02:06 |
| DefineKThyne | *holds breath for test page result* | 02:06 |
| shane2peru | mrichman, you have to click unlock. :) | 02:06 |
| UnityDivide | ahave_, which release of Ubuntu do you have installed? | 02:06 |
| shane2peru | mrichman, it is a new hardy feature. | 02:06 |
| bazhang | Punko3: this is the livecd; try the alternate cd | 02:06 |
| Ronux | Been searching all day for this and having a cazy time. Is it possible to make a user have the same "rights" as root? | 02:06 |
| ahave_ | UnityDivide, Gutsy | 02:06 |
| billenium | I just selected ¨Extra¨ in Visual Effects, does this allow me to do that ¨cube¨ affect like the one in the youtube videos. If so how? Thanks :) | 02:06 |
| Starnestommy | Ronux: using sudo, yes | 02:06 |
| nekostar | being offline for a bit likely | 02:06 |
| mrichman | shane2peru: yes, i know, but that option is greyed out | 02:06 |
| Punko3 | Alright bazhang, is it a text based installer / | 02:06 |
| danbhfive | satokun: use the livecd, and boot with that, and resetup grub using the directions. | 02:06 |
| Danish989 | Billenium: I do believe you have to install some other things for that | 02:06 |
| bazhang | Punko3: yes it is | 02:07 |
| shane2peru | mrichman, hmm, let me check it out. | 02:07 |
| Danish989 | billenium: like the compiz settings manager for one | 02:07 |
| billenium | okay | 02:07 |
| anoble | Ok, im trying to setup this computer that has 3 NIC's to work as a "network Bridge" to the other Windows XP Pro Computer, when i plugin a cable from my router to any of the NICs they work, but when plugging in a cable from This Computer to the other computer it doesnt work, and the lights dont light up and neither computers read them. I want to setup "network bridging" using ip tables | 02:07 |
| UnityDivide | ahave_, I had a similar problem a while ago with Gutsy and my nVidia card, according to my googling, it's an issue with that particular version of the nVidia driver, if you restart X, or Log out/Log in, it should "fix" itself | 02:07 |
| UnityDivide | well, the googling I did when I had the problem | 02:07 |
| zionpsyfer | harris: rejoin. | 02:07 |
| shane2peru | mrichman, I think that means you don't have permission to access that, are you the system admin? | 02:07 |
| mark[oz] | bazhang, I really wanted my root to be raided | 02:07 |
| Punko3 | bazhang, does ubuntu come built with the cubic multiple desktop display ? | 02:07 |
| mark[oz] | I didn't want 3 hard drives in my machine | 02:07 |
| mrichman | shane2peru: yep...i'm the only user on the system | 02:07 |
| UnityDivide | ahave_, with Hardy and the latest nVidia driver (installed with Envy), I've had no problems | 02:07 |
| shane2peru | mrichman, hmm, that is odd, how about when you run it from the menu? | 02:08 |
| bazhang | Punko3: you need to install a package and then you can get it, provided you have a decent video card | 02:08 |
| Danish989 | UnityDivide: what is Envy used for? | 02:08 |
| mrichman | shane2peru: the menu is what i tried first, of course ;) | 02:08 |
| ahave_ | UnityDivide, i am actually using a mythbuntu build of ubuntu.. so i will wait for the upgrade | 02:08 |
| harris | hi Zion Im back | 02:08 |
| shane2peru | mrichman, hmm, that is very odd. | 02:08 |
| UnityDivide | Danish989, to install the latest versions of the nVidia and ATi drivers | 02:08 |
| zionpsyfer | harris: Hi, rejoin #zionpsyfer | 02:08 |
| shane2peru | mrichman, I'm not sure about that one, ask again, perhaps someone else will know. | 02:09 |
| anoble | Ok, im trying to setup this computer that has 3 NIC's to work as a "network Bridge" to the other Windows XP Pro Computer, when i plugin a cable from my router to any of the NICs they work, but when plugging in a cable from This Computer to the other computer it doesnt work, and the lights dont light up and neither computers read them. I want to setup "network bridging" using ip tables | 02:09 |
| Danish989 | UnityDividie: okie, thanks =) | 02:09 |
| Punko3 | bazhang, where is the alternate download posted ? | 02:09 |
| mrichman | shane2peru: i think i may have found out why....i am logged in via NX | 02:09 |
| Punko3 | ah, nvm | 02:09 |
| UnityDivide | Danish989, no problem :) | 02:09 |
| Punko3 | bazhang, I noticed the checkbox, lol | 02:09 |
| shane2peru | mrichman, hmm, not familiar with NX | 02:09 |
| noys_ | i installed xchat and it took 200mb for dependencies, but when i remove it it gives me less space whats going on? | 02:09 |
| noys_ | apt-get remove --purge xchat | 02:09 |
| shachaf | Does the DVD version of Ubuntu not have Wubi? | 02:10 |
| shane2peru | noys_, it doesn't remove all the dependencies | 02:10 |
| noys_ | 756 kb? | 02:10 |
| UnityDivide | ahave_, in the mean time, logging out and back in, or restarting X should fix the problem | 02:10 |
| shane2peru | noys_, you have to run sudo apt-get autoremove | 02:10 |
| ahave_ | UnityDivide, ok. i will try | 02:10 |
| noys_ | aww | 02:10 |
| nano_ | how can you tell if a certain kde program will run in gnome? | 02:10 |
| shane2peru | noys_, that will get rid of the extra packages installed and not needed | 02:10 |
| grte | nano_: They all can. | 02:10 |
| dell_ | hey i have postfix setupi shard to get smtp auth setup? | 02:10 |
| Danish989 | nano_: they all should .. you just have to install some kde packages form to | 02:10 |
| Dr_willis | nano_, i havent really seen any kde apps that CANT run in gnome. | 02:10 |
| Danish989 | nano_: for them too* | 02:10 |
| lifi | hey, i have some trouble with my hardy... it freezes randomly :< without doing anything special, fresh install with nvidia modul. any idea? | 02:10 |
| noys_ | shane2peru so apt-get autoremove xchat? | 02:11 |
| grte | Ultimately they are all X applications, and X is universal. | 02:11 |
| benpicco | I have an Intel 3945ABG Pro Wireless card, it works but hardy's iwl3934 driver does not support monitor mode - ipw3945 is said to provide it - so can I just install this one from http://ipw3945.sourceforge.net/? | 02:11 |
| anoble | : / hazbang no ones responded | 02:11 |
| shane2peru | noys_, no, just suo apt-get autoremove that will clean up whatever was installed before and not needed now. | 02:11 |
| anoble | Ok, im trying to setup this computer that has 3 NIC's to work as a "network Bridge" to the other Windows XP Pro Computer, when i plugin a cable from my router to any of the NICs they work, but when plugging in a cable from This Computer to the other computer it doesnt work, and the lights dont light up and neither computers read them. I want to setup "network bridging" using ip tables | 02:11 |
| noys_ | aww thank you | 02:11 |
| UnityDivide | anoble, are you using crossover cables? | 02:11 |
| shane2peru | noys_, no problem | 02:11 |
| danbhfive | satokun: i think this maybe out of my league, if you can't even get to a grub menu. You gota complicated setup | 02:12 |
| bazhang | http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=269235 anoble this should apply to you | 02:12 |
| ahave_ | UnityDivide, ok. that worked! thanks | 02:12 |
| UnityDivide | ahave_, awesome! glad to hear it | 02:13 |
| nano_ | Is there anything i should know, or be aware of, if i am running kde applications under gnome? | 02:13 |
| ahave_ | UnityDivide, so you said this is a driver issue? | 02:13 |
| fiyawerx | nano_, should be fine | 02:13 |
| SilverStreak | not really nano_, they should run just fine | 02:13 |
| jonny | Total newbie here, Does anyone have a minute to answer a quick question about "SoundConverter" | 02:13 |
| shane2peru | nano_, it will install a lot of extra dependencies, but they should all run fine | 02:13 |
| anoble | UnityDivide: White Orange - Orange - White Green - Blue - White Blue - Green - White Brown - Brown | 02:13 |
| fiyawerx | other than needing to hvae the kdelibs installed as prereqs | 02:13 |
| UnityDivide | ahave_, according to the article I read, yea | 02:13 |
| grte | nano_: Resource usage will generally be higher than using just gnome apps or just kde apps. | 02:13 |
| nano_ | Is running kde applications, common? | 02:14 |
| nano_ | under gnome i mean. | 02:14 |
| bazhang | nano_: aye | 02:14 |
| shane2peru | nano_, only the initial kde program will install the extra dep's, after that you will be fine | 02:14 |
| nano_ | aye = yes?? | 02:14 |
| benpicco | is it possible | 02:14 |
| benpicco | eww | 02:14 |
| Starnestommy | nano_: yes | 02:14 |
| Danish989 | nano_: 100% safe | 02:14 |
| shane2peru | nano_, I ran Kopete for a long while | 02:14 |
| shane2peru | nano_, under gnome, not problems | 02:14 |
| Danish989 | nano_: thats how every desktop is different .. you create your own desktop :) | 02:14 |
| jonny | anyone? | 02:15 |
| shane2peru | nano_, what apps are you looking at? | 02:15 |
| nano_ | some wifi stuff | 02:15 |
| bazhang | jonny: ask the question and someone will answer if they know | 02:15 |
| benpicco | is it possible to install the ipw driver instead of the iwl one using apt? | 02:15 |
| UnityDivide | anoble, I think what's happening, is that the cable you are using is connecting the "Transmit" pin on your "bridge" computer, to the "Transmit" pin on the WinXP computer | 02:15 |
| nano_ | although i have found wifi-radar, which is a really cool application | 02:15 |
| shane2peru | nano_, should be fine. | 02:15 |
| Lossif | has anyone had problems mounting a mythbuntu samba share? | 02:15 |
| nano_ | anyways, i have a wifi driver that loads by default and it messes up my ndiswrapper....i have tried to blacklist in /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist, but it is still loaded.....any ideas how i can fix this? | 02:16 |
| anoble | UnityDivide: guess ill just make a cross-over tom | 02:16 |
| UnityDivide | anoble, probably a good idea | 02:16 |
| Lossif | I can mount graphically | 02:16 |
| fiyawerx | nano_, im not too familiar with that, but maybe try an lsmod and make sure there isn't another module you have to blacklist thats also loading it | 02:16 |
| Lossif | but when I try to automount in the terminal | 02:16 |
| Lossif | it says it can't find it | 02:16 |
| nano_ | fiyawerx: good call, i will check that out. | 02:16 |
| chris0 | how do you print your home directory in a terminal, even if you're not in your home directory (so pwd doesn't work)? | 02:17 |
| Danish989 | Lossif: maybe you aren't typing the commands correctly? | 02:17 |
| nano_ | fiyawerx: how can i find the relationship between modules? | 02:17 |
| kneeki | Anyone have a link to a folder sharing setup guide using Ubuntu 8.04 server edition? | 02:17 |
| Lossif | well... | 02:17 |
| anoble | UnityDivide: hmm wish i could run the cable to my computer then to the router and then to the other computer | 02:17 |
| nano_ | fiyawerx: depmod or something? | 02:17 |
| bazhang | Lossif: if you dont get a good answer here you can ask in #ubuntu-mythtv | 02:17 |
| fiyawerx | nano_: sudo lsmod ? shows you what module and what its used by, not sure after that | 02:17 |
| nano_ | i seee | 02:17 |
| nano_ | thanks a bunch | 02:17 |
| jonny | Okay, this may sound totally moronic, but bear with me. in SoundConverter I am compressing files to "High Quality" mp3s with variable bitrate. So the target is 192kbps. Why are the output files coming out at around 150-160kbps | 02:17 |
| grte | anoble: Why can't you? | 02:17 |
| q_a_z_steve | Can anyone recommend a linux program to remaster DVD's like DVD Shrink? | 02:17 |
| Lossif | does this look ok? | 02:18 |
| shane2peru | chris0, you mean list all the contents? | 02:18 |
| Lossif | //192.168.2.6/video /media/share/podcasts cifs | 02:18 |
| Danish989 | jonny: If no one is answering, that probably means no one has worked with sound converter | 02:18 |
| anoble | grte: its like 5 feet that i need more, and its a 47' cable | 02:18 |
| chris0 | shane2peru: no, I mean to display "/home/username/" | 02:18 |
| Lossif | that is is fstab | 02:18 |
| grte | Lame. | 02:18 |
| musashi | q_a_z_steve, k9copy is pretty nice | 02:18 |
| SilverStreak | q_a_z_steve: try avidemux once you've ripped the DVD | 02:18 |
| shane2peru | chris0, pwd, is print working directory | 02:18 |
| bigtimer121 | how do i make my volume louder. the maximum is not very loud at all, | 02:18 |
| bazhang | q_a_z_steve: you tried devede | 02:18 |
| Danish989 | jonny: an alternative method of finding an answer, is posting your problem in the ubuntu forums | 02:18 |
| Punko3 | Does anyone know of a version of linux with an easy to use GUI that will fit and run fairly well off of a 4gb flash drive ? | 02:18 |
| F1N1TY | K, I have an Ubuntu LAMP installed, and now I want to access it from another computer, yet see the desktop/etc... is that possible, or do I HAVE to install ubuntu-desktop? | 02:18 |
| shane2peru | chris0, not sure on that one. | 02:18 |
| Danish989 | jonny: they have a different board there for sound and graphic problems | 02:18 |
| maluqinho | grettings | 02:18 |

| maluqinho | until now, interesting. | 02:19 |
| maluqinho | 8.04 | 02:19 |
| EvilAIM | What program do I need to unrar? | 02:19 |
| shane2peru | F1N1TY, use ssh | 02:19 |
| chris0 | shane2peru: I'm guessing I need to say $PATH and then use some satanic thing like regex to parse out the foldername.... | 02:19 |
| anoble | grte: its a custom made cable, i have another 30 footer, but my router had 3 ports that are dead, my dad pulled the cord and broke out half the pins | 02:19 |
| bazhang | maluqinho: how can we help; do you an issue | 02:19 |
| SilverStreak | F1N1TY: If you access it via SSH, there's no need to have that package on the server, just the client | 02:19 |
| jonny | Danish989: okay thanks | 02:19 |
| Punko3 | EvilAIM: winrar or 7zip | 02:19 |
| EvilAIM | wtf | 02:19 |
| maluqinho | first packages... :-) | 02:19 |
| EvilAIM | winrar? | 02:19 |
| grte | Also lame. | 02:19 |
| Danish989 | jonny: No problem. Hope you find your solution soon | 02:19 |

| Punko3 | EvilAIM: http://rarlabs.com | 02:19 |
| Danish989 | maluqinho: Welcome aboard :) | 02:19 |
| Lossif | and no one is answering in #ubuntu-mythtv | 02:19 |
| chris0 | shane2peru: no prob | 02:19 |
| q_a_z_steve | bazhang: I have the file in .iso and I want to remove certain titles to preserve quality... Can devede do that? | 02:19 |
| bazhang | q_a_z_steve: not sure never tried | 02:20 |
| Punko3 | EvilAIM: Not sure on 7zip, if you google it, i'm sure you'll find it. | 02:20 |
| SilverStreak | I think it can if you mount the DVD | 02:20 |
| jonny | Danish989: Where can I find that board? | 02:20 |
| stik | Anyone running kde 4? | 02:20 |
| musashi | q_a_z_steve, thoes others mentioned are also good but k9copy will seem most similar to dvd shrink - that doesn't mean it's the best. it will just be somewhat familiar | 02:20 |
| Danish989 | jonny: http://ubuntuforums.org/ | 02:20 |
| bazhang | stik: aye | 02:20 |
| bigtimer121 | bazhang: thanks man, helped me out | 02:20 |
| jonny | thanks | 02:20 |
| bazhang | bigtimer121: good to hear :) | 02:20 |
| stik | Huge diff from the 3 series? | 02:20 |
| Danish989 | jonny: welcome | 02:20 |
| anoble | grte: and finding 2 unused RJ-45's is going to be a bummer, since i have pleanty of cables | 02:21 |
| bazhang | stik best to ask in #kubuntu-kde4 but yes huuuge difference | 02:21 |
| q_a_z_steve | musashi: I thought that was just for burning, once I have all my VOB's and that... What "others" are you talking about? | 02:21 |
| Punko3 | anoble: circuit city, a bag of RJ-45s for $15 I believe | 02:21 |
| stik | Well I been using gnome for forever ... was thinking about checking it out.. | 02:21 |
| paulcross | Ubuntu couldnt automatically backup and recover as MAC OSX time machine, could it? | 02:21 |
| shane2peru | stik, it does look cool, however, it isn't Gnome. :) | 02:22 |
| billenium | How do i play Anarchy Online on Ubuntu? | 02:22 |
| anoble | Punko3: yeah i can get them from my teacher for free, its just that taking the time to do it all | 02:22 |
| bazhang | paulcross: with the pretty gui or just the same function? | 02:22 |
| leucas | good evening everybody | 02:22 |
| Punko3 | anoble: college ? | 02:22 |
| shane2peru | stik, I checked it out too, just couldn't stay, too much of a difference, very nice looking though. | 02:22 |
| anoble | Punko3: it only takes like 5min, and no Vocational | 02:22 |
| stik | heh, yeah, I doubt I'll be switching anytime soon... | 02:22 |
| paulcross | bazhang, ANY means will be ok. I just want the function. | 02:22 |
| anoble | Punko3: im in Info Tech Shop | 02:22 |
| Punko3 | anoble: ahh, me too. I was in a networking class here in Fort Wayne | 02:23 |
| shane2peru | stik, you can install it though and check it out, the kde4 has a nice look IMHO | 02:23 |
| musashi | q_a_z_steve, k9copy is very similar to dvd shrink it works from the original dvd. I think you can work from vob too but i've never used it that way | 02:23 |
| DefineKThyne | it is possible to boot Ubuntu from a removable drive like an external hard drive, right? | 02:23 |
| anoble | Punko3: yeah we do it all | 02:23 |
| anoble | Punko3: i like programming a little more | 02:23 |
| shane2peru | DefineKThyne, yes, you can do this | 02:23 |
| bazhang | !backup | paulcross these may help (esp rsync and sbackup) | 02:23 |
| ubottu | paulcross these may help (esp rsync and sbackup): There are many ways to back your system up. Here's a few: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BackupYourSystem , https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DuplicityBackupHowto , https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HomeUserBackup , https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MondoMindi - See also !sbackup and !cloning | 02:23 |
| Punko3 | anoble: I am working on my Comptia A+ certification and my Desktop Support certifications; they're in windows though | 02:23 |
| musashi | q_a_z_steve, the "others" were just devede and such that other people replied with. | 02:23 |
| stik | can you get the desktop effects on the live cd? | 02:23 |
| shane2peru | DefineKThyne, I found a link and installed it to my wife's computer, her cdrom burned up. :) | 02:23 |
| legatic | anyone feel like helping a complete and utter n00b? I just installed ubuntu for the first time, and I fear I'm so lost that even the documentation pages aren't helping me | 02:23 |
| anoble | Punko3: yeah im working on A+, CCNA, and ITE | 02:24 |
| Punko3 | anoble: I just decided to extend my area of knowledge into the linux field since it's becoming a lot more used by large companies | 02:24 |
| bazhang | stik: which live cd | 02:24 |
| benpicco | should I install http://ieee80211.sourceforge.net/, too? | 02:24 |
| Punko3 | anoble: I may do my CCNA next year, I didn't like my instructor this year. | 02:24 |
| paulcross | bazhang, thank you. I go check it out. | 02:24 |
| stik | <-- long time slackware user switched ubuntu so forgive my lack of ubuntu knowledge :P | 02:24 |
| musashi | q_a_z_steve, editing an .iso file will probably not be real easy. i'm sure there are tools to do that but i'm not aware of anything. | 02:24 |
| maluqinho | I am slack user too. | 02:24 |
| DefineKThyne | shane2peru: thanks: ) | 02:24 |
| q_a_z_steve | musashi: k9copy depends: kdelibs-data kdelibs4c2a libarts1c2a libavahi-qt3-1 liblua50 liblualib50 libopenexr2c2a libqt3-mt vamps THIS ISN'T going to install KDE is it? VOB's are the end result, so that sounds like it should work. | 02:24 |
| stik | The kde4 live desktop cd | 02:24 |
| paulcross | ubottu, Thank you,I will go and check it out. | 02:24 |
| bazhang | stik: you mean ubuntu gnome one or kde4 one | 02:24 |
| fiyawerx | if your a slack user you shoudlnt have a problem | 02:24 |
| shane2peru | DefineKThyne, well, actually I think you would be runnig like a live CD enviroment | 02:24 |
| anoble | Punko3: Same, man! and doing my CCNSP sooner or later, and working on getting my MCAS (Microsft w/e w/e w/e) | 02:24 |
| ommegang | i just installed 8.04 64bit, and i have a gforce 7600gt, and i am stuck in 800x600 mode and the restricted driver is installed any ideas how i can get to1280/1024 | 02:24 |
| shane2peru | DefineKThyne, however it did work, booted off my usb stick | 02:25 |
| musashi | q_a_z_steve, it will install the required kde libraries but not the full kde desktop | 02:25 |
| Starnestommy | q_a_z_steve: that won't install KDE, just some stuff that some KDE programs need | 02:25 |
| bazhang | stik well not the compiz but some other effects in kde4 one | 02:25 |
| SilverStreak | okay guys, are corrupted superblocks easy to repair, or should I just reformat? | 02:25 |
| q_a_z_steve | kk | 02:25 |
| shane2peru | DefineKThyne, make sure you BIOS supports booting off usb | 02:25 |
| Punko3 | anoble: MCSA - Microsoft Certified Server Administrator :] | 02:25 |
| q_a_z_steve | will try those avidemux and/or k9copy. | 02:25 |
| anoble | Punko3: yeah thats what w/e w/e w/e meant : ) | 02:25 |
| Punko3 | anoble: I am doing that next year along with my Network+, CCNA, and hopefully MCSE | 02:25 |
| bazhang | anoble and Punko3 could you take the chat to #ubuntu-offtopic please thanks | 02:25 |
| stik | kk... I'll pop it in and check it out... Thnx for your input guys... | 02:25 |
| musashi | q_a_z_steve, i think you can open and then burn the vob with k9 but i've never tried so don't quote me | 02:25 |
| DefineKThyne | shane2peru: what i was thinking, more specifically, was that since my friend has a rather large External Seagate, i could boot it from a partition actually off the drive as long as her BIOS does support usb drive. | 02:25 |
| Punko3 | sure bazhang | 02:25 |
| anoble | Punko3: can you get me your AIM/MSN on private chat? | 02:25 |
| q_a_z_steve | musashi: I'll play around with them, if not there's always WINE I suppose. | 02:26 |
| bazhang | anoble punko3 you could also create a channel #anoble and chat there | 02:26 |
| musashi | q_a_z_steve, avidemux is great if you want to transcode something to play on a psp or something | 02:26 |
| satokun | danbhfive: still here/working with someone? | 02:26 |
| stik | 8.04 is running pretty freaking sweet btw.. | 02:26 |
| DefineKThyne | shane2peru: so she's basically got a very large and able Live Session. | 02:26 |
| shane2peru | DefineKThyne, I'm pretty sure this is a do-able, I mean if I installed off a usb stick, you should be able to run off a usb drive, it may be a challenge. | 02:26 |
| q_a_z_steve | musashi: useful for later then, good. | 02:26 |
| musashi | q_a_z_steve, k9 does just about everything you will probably want if you are looking for a dvd shrink clone. | 02:26 |
| shane2peru | DefineKThyne, right, it will run a lot faster than a live CD too. | 02:27 |

| musashi | bazhang, since dvd shrink seems to be a dead project (last i checked the most recent update was 2005 or something) k9 seems even better comparatively. | 02:30 |

| sebsebseb | yeah chooch1: yeah the effects can cause problems | 02:42 |
| ere4si | Sylphid: don't know why it would be ignored - you can sudo /etc/init.d networking restart to see if the file is used | 02:42 |
| sebsebseb | chooch1: yeah the effects can cause problems | 02:42 |
| zionpsyfer | eboyjr: try sticking this in your index.html file : <?php_info();?> refresh and see if you see a bunch of php info | 02:42 |
| foxhop | sebsebseb: I get some widgets and a few mouse and display drivers | 02:42 |
| Greencoat1982 | ok I running hardy, have VB running xp pro sp2 | 02:43 |
| Pelo | Coder8, select the correct audio device from winecfg , that,s the only suggestion I hve | 02:43 |
| sebsebseb | foxhop: normally people in this channel would recommend virtualbox instead of VMware | 02:43 |
| eboyjr | zionpsyfer, Do you mean index.php? | 02:43 |
| satokun | danbhfive: should I try reinstalling grub to root at 2,0? | 02:43 |
| chooch1 | can you tell if the developers of compiz are working to fix it? | 02:43 |
| Raspberry | zionpsyfer: you should always use <?php not <? | 02:43 |
| zionpsyfer | eboyjr: Gah, yes. | 02:43 |
| Punko3 | What is the best file system for ubuntu ? | 02:43 |
| sebsebseb | foxhop: however I think there is not a proper version of it for hardy yet, but the Gutsy one may work for you | 02:43 |
| Greencoat1982 | I have the Zune.exe on my ubuntu partition and I want to acces it from the guest OS so I can install it | 02:43 |
| Yaro | Punko3: That's a matter of personal preference. | 02:43 |
| Coder8 | Pelo: okay, thanks anyway | 02:43 |
| furicle | It's 'greyed out' when I come at it thru the modem applet. I can't push it. It works fine when I come at it from Network montir | 02:43 |
| danbhfive | satokun: I think you need to find your hardy install, actually | 02:43 |
| Punko3 | Yaro, it seems to me that Ubuntu doesn't like NTFS | 02:43 |
| sebsebseb | foxhop: as for VMware you may have to enable the universe server or something, or just download it from there site | 02:43 |
| danbhfive | satokun: I'm still unsure if its on the second or first drive | 02:44 |
| Sylphid | ere4si, its not ignored per say what appears to happen is when i restart networking the static is applied as expected but when the dhcp lease expires it renews it ignoring the static | 02:44 |
| * Pelo finds this whole new policy kit thing and unlock button a bit disorienting | 02:44 | |
| Yaro | Punko3: Oh? I can use NTFS no problems. Perhaps you can describe your trouble. | 02:44 |
| Coder8 | Linux doesn't like NTFS because NTFS is stupid :P | 02:44 |
| Cale | What package should I install to get a Java 6 browser plugin in Hardy? My Java plugin's been broken ever since the upgrade from Gutsy, and I haven't had any luck installing the various java plugin packages. | 02:44 |
| crdlb | chooch1: it's not a compiz problem, but the X driver people are working on it | 02:44 |
| chooch1 | ok | 02:44 |
| eboyjr | zionpsyfer, Hmm... it works... | 02:44 |
| * furicle agrees policy kit weird | 02:44 | |
| eboyjr | Wow | 02:44 |
| rhsanborn | I'm trying to spec out a box to run some virtual machines on Hardy. I'd like to run a couple virtual web servers that will serve some dev sites only accessed by me, and some windows app machines. No huge performance necessary, but I'd like them not to be terribly pokey in the interface, etc. Any ideas? They have some nice, off lease dual core xeon servers on ebay on one end, or a home built micro atx box on the other end. | 02:44 |
| Pelo | Punko3, ntfs doesn'T like linux , ms doesn'T play well with others | 02:44 |
| ere4si | Sylphid: can you paste /etc/network/interfaces? | 02:44 |
| Greencoat1982 | I don't know if I'm just looking over the answer in the docs | 02:44 |
| Coder8 | iirc, NTFS mounts read-only by default, no? | 02:44 |
| sebsebseb | Cale: you should be able to get a sun java mozilla plugin from the synaptic package manager | 02:44 |
| satokun | danbhfive: well since the grub install setting it for 1,0 throws errors, it must be the 2,0 | 02:44 |
| chooch1 | another thing is, I'm looking for dj turntable software, to mix mp3 for fun | 02:44 |
| danbhfive | satokun: if you are getting a grub menu, then I don't think you need to reinstall grub | 02:45 |
| zionpsyfer | eboyjr: K, so it's phpmyadmin then. | 02:45 |
| chooch1 | do u know any? I couldn't find anything in synaptic | 02:45 |
| Raspberry | is there a commandline option I can use to get firefox to start with a new session? Firefox refuses to start (the process starts, but nothing loads) since my last click of Save & Quit | 02:45 |
| sebsebseb | chooch1: audocity that should do it | 02:45 |
| Sylphid | ere4si, http://paste.ubuntu.com/9356/ | 02:45 |
| bazhang | chooch1: this is hardy or gutsy | 02:45 |
| Apallo | rhsanborn: you could probably build something decent for yourself off of newegg.com | 02:45 |
| Pelo | chooch1, audacity | 02:45 |
| Yaro | Pelo: No, MS doesn't, but I haven't hd trouble with ntfs-3g, which has been included in Ubuntu since... 7.10... I think. | 02:45 |
| Cale | sebsebseb: yes, I should. I've tried quite a few packages (sun-java6-plugin and icedtea-java7-plugin among them) and none cause anything to show up in about:plugins | 02:45 |
| eboyjr | zionpsyfer, That is extremely weird. Well, thanks... I will test some more stuff. | 02:45 |
| sebsebseb | pelo: yeah thanks pelo I meant audacity :) | 02:45 |
| chooch1 | it's hardy | 02:45 |
| chooch1 | why? | 02:45 |
| Apallo | which might be better value for money for you | 02:45 |
| satokun | danbhfive: possibly then command line grub to fix it then? no idea how to go about that though | 02:45 |
| hellues | are there a channel about java applet in this server | 02:46 |
| satokun | danbhfive: or would the problem be in the menu file? | 02:46 |
| Greencoat1982 | eboyjr : I'm running hardy w/ xp pro sp2 , I have my zune.exe on the linux host, and want to access it with my xp guest, is that possible | 02:46 |
| rhsanborn | Apallo, think a decent spec proc with a pair of SATAs and a couple gigs of RAM would hack it? | 02:46 |
| Pelo | hellues, try #java | 02:46 |
| sebsebseb | Cale: so you installed from the network, but Firefox still has no working Java plugin? | 02:46 |
| hellues | java dont answer me | 02:46 |
| Cale | sebsebseb: right. | 02:46 |
| Apallo | might want to go quad core, but yeah | 02:46 |
| ere4si | Sylphid: that looks right | 02:46 |
| zionpsyfer | eboyjr: No worries. If I may, Navicat has worked well as a replacement for phpmyadmin for me. | 02:46 |
| hellues | ppl in java channel dont answer me about java applet | 02:46 |
| sebsebseb | Cale: I think you may be able to download one from there site | 02:46 |
| Gramble | sup you guys. i need some clue-sticking | 02:46 |
| Punko3 | What would be the best file system for Ubuntu ? | 02:46 |
| TaRDy | amenado, just to follow up yesterday's assistance you offered... | 02:46 |
| eboyjr | Greencoat1982, You can set up shared folders. | 02:47 |
| bazhang | gramble welcom to ubuntu :) | 02:47 |
| danbhfive | satokun: it can't hurt to try that though. I would also suggest to try changing menu.lst so that root for hardy is (hd0,0) instead of hd1,0 | 02:47 |
| Dr_willis | Punko3, ext3 is the most commonly used fs. | 02:47 |
| Gramble | nice! | 02:47 |
| Punko3 | Thanks Dr_willis | 02:47 |
| Pelo | Greencoat1982, guest what , guest os on virtual box ? check on digg there is an article about installing virtualbox with usb support | 02:47 |
| Cale | sebsebseb: Yeah, I've been thinking I might have to do a manual install of the JRE. | 02:47 |
| Raspberry | wow firefox won't even start with -safe-mode | 02:47 |
| sebsebseb | Punko3: by default it uses Ext3 which is fine | 02:47 |
| Gramble | thx. it's neat to dive in. | 02:47 |
| zionpsyfer | eboyjr: An alternative if you can't get phpmyadmin working. | 02:47 |
| TaRDy | amenado, the driver installed but the network manager did not detect the wireless card | 02:47 |
| Dr_willis | Punko3, its also the default :) | 02:47 |
| ere4si | Sylphid: why, with a static ip address, do you have a dhcp lease? | 02:47 |
| tomoyuki28jp | After upgrading to hardy, my trackpoint scroll does not work. I have read many of ubuntu forum post and wiki, but I still dont know how I can make it work. Any advice?? | 02:47 |
| Cale | (it's just that I figured that seems pretty wrong :) | 02:47 |
| Sylphid | ere4si, i had this problem in fedora befor i switched and had to disable network-manager to get it to stop using dhcp, as far as i can tel network-manager is not installed on 8.04 correct? | 02:47 |
| TaRDy | amenado, a modprobe ndiswrapper got it to work | 02:47 |
| sebsebseb | Cale: yeah Java can be a bit of a pain to install in Ubuntu I say from experience | 02:47 |
| Greencoat1982 | eboyjr do I use the VB proggy or the ubuntu os to setup the shared foldews | 02:47 |
| satokun | danbhfive: I'll give that a shot. Don't let me keep you over though if you need to be off. | 02:47 |
| Sylphid | ere4si, no clue..... i dont want one | 02:48 |
| Gramble | i need to know what do to next: I've got root on my new linux box. | 02:48 |
| Apallo | rhsanborn: i would try to go x64 if you can too, so you can use 4+ gig of ram | 02:48 |
| TaRDy | sebsebseb, shouldn't java installations be easier soon since sun is supposedly opensourcing the parts that made it not able to be pre-packaged? | 02:48 |
| ere4si | Sylphid: it is installed - in control center I think | 02:48 |
| Pelo | !who | Gramble | 02:48 |
| ubottu | Gramble: As you can see, this is a large channel. If you're speaking to someone in particular, please put their nickname in what you say (use !tab), or else messages get lost and it becomes confusing :) | 02:48 |
| Greencoat1982 | eboyjr I see it now, I'm just an idiot | 02:48 |
| eboyjr | Greencoat1982, Do you have VB Guest Additions installed on the Guest OS ( winxp )? | 02:48 |
| Dr_willis | Ive never had any java install issues. I just normally install the Ubuntu-restricted-extras package. and it grabs the java runtime stuff for me. | 02:48 |
| rhsanborn | Apallo, indeed. I won't be jumping to 4G off the bat (wallet restricting). The only thing that bugs me is the limited x64 package support. | 02:48 |
| bazhang | gramble if you explain what you are trying to do then whoever knows will likely answer thanks | 02:48 |
| Sylphid | ere4si, any hints on how to manage it via cli..... not running a gui on this box | 02:48 |
| sebsebseb | TarDy: will if the plugin is true open source or free software I supopuse it will be in Ubuntu by default and even Debian for that matter a pure free software distro | 02:49 |
| Greencoat1982 | thanks for the point in the right direction | 02:49 |
| eboyjr | Greencoat1982, glad i could help, lol | 02:49 |
| amenado | TaRDy-> so everything okay now? | 02:49 |
| sebsebseb | TarDy: yes Debian will have it by default if it's proper free software | 02:49 |
| Apallo | rhsanborn: this is true | 02:49 |
| eboyjr | Greencoat1982, Heres a link if you want: http://www.mepislovers.org/forums/showthread.php?t=5152 | 02:49 |
| chooch1 | what's the closest program to msn messenger? I really don't like the alternatives for linux.. | 02:49 |
| TaRDy | amenado, yes thank you for your help | 02:49 |
| danbhfive | satokun: yeah, I need to sign off | 02:49 |
| Ordius | hey how is everyone's experience with happy heron? | 02:49 |
| rhsanborn | Apallo, It doesn't mean that I can't run x86 binaries until someone catches up though. | 02:49 |
| ere4si | Sylphid: I use the interfaces file for that... | 02:49 |
| rhsanborn | Apallo, good idea. | 02:49 |
| === Ordius is now known as DarkW0lf | ||
| amenado | TaRDy-> you're welcome | 02:49 |
| Apallo | rhsanborn: yep | 02:49 |
| danbhfive | satokun: last suggestion: http://users.bigpond.net.au/hermanzone/p15.htm#First_method:_direct_kernel_boot. | 02:49 |
| Gramble | bazhang: so I'll obey the ubottu and address my explanation to you? | 02:49 |
| Greencoat1982 | ok thanks again eboyjr, I'm off to wreck some stuff now | 02:50 |
| sebsebseb | chooch1: yeah the alternatives aren't that good, but Kmess and AMSN are the closest to MSN | 02:50 |
| danbhfive | satokun: maybe you can try that, and see if you can find the hardy install that way. | 02:50 |
| klos | ive got a mp4 video file and i want to extract just the audio.. any help ??? | 02:50 |
| danbhfive | satokun: good luck! | 02:50 |
| Punko3 | Can someone Private message me to help me with the partitioning on ubuntu | 02:50 |
| bazhang | Gramble: I may not know; but the other much smarter folks here just may | 02:50 |
| eboyjr | Greencoat1982, Hah, knock yrself out! ;) | 02:50 |
| Sylphid | ere4si, locate doesnt yield anything named network-manager | 02:50 |
| sebsebseb | Punko3: yep I can do that | 02:50 |
| chooch1 | too bad. I Just installed audacious and it's not for mixing... it's just a player like winamp | 02:51 |
| bigtimer121 | how do i delete a desktop item? | 02:51 |
| ere4si | Sylphid: that's a gui thing - and you have no gui - is it something with your router resetting or similar? | 02:51 |
| sebsebseb | chooch1: no not audacious | 02:51 |
| bazhang | chooch1: audacity | 02:51 |
| sebsebseb | chooch1: audacity | 02:51 |
| musashi | can i post links to my question on launchpad here or is that bad etiquette? my question was a bit long for all the traffic here and i don't get a lot of help on the answer tracker - i mainly give it :) | 02:51 |
| Yaro | bigtimer121: Unless it is a mounted drive/partition, just select it and hit delete. | 02:51 |
| Sylphid | ere4si, why would the router be forcing dhcp requests? | 02:51 |
| furicle | Does nobody use modem monitor? I see bug#54790 is from 2006! and still applies.... | 02:51 |
| bigtimer121 | yaro: it is mounted. i can't unmount it | 02:51 |
| ahave_ | how can i check to see what nvidia drivers i am using | 02:52 |
| Yaro | bigtimer121: Are you getting a specific error when you try unmounting. | 02:52 |
| Sylphid | ere4si, now that you mention it though this did start happening shortly after replacing my old router | 02:52 |
| zionpsyfer | chooch1: mixxx was fun to play with too. No clue how useful it would be for really trying to mix though. | 02:52 |
| Yaro | ahave_: Are you using the proprietary drivers? | 02:52 |
| Gramble | bazhang: gotcha. my new host (tummy.com) just popped my cherry and I've got SSH into root on Breezy. Shouldn't I create a user or two so I have something other than root to use? Isn't that next? | 02:52 |
| chooch1 | it's just a sound editor.. | 02:52 |
| ere4si | Sylphid: never had your issue - looking for clues | 02:52 |
| ahave_ | Yaro, yes... i think so. but not sure? | 02:52 |
| chooch1 | mixxx has no turntables too | 02:52 |
| AnthroTechie | I'm having problmes getting Banchee to work in Hardy | 02:52 |
| bigtimer121 | yaro: it says it cannot send to trash or delete | 02:52 |
| ere4si | Sylphid: there you go | 02:52 |
| waxhead | hi everyone | 02:52 |
| Yaro | ahave_: Go into system -> Administration -> Hardware Drivers and see. | 02:53 |
| IntangibleLiquid | what is the critical level battery | 02:53 |
| waxhead | stupid question, since the stable hardy release, have there been any updates? | 02:53 |
| Yaro | bigtimer121: You don't unmount a drive that way. | 02:53 |
| bigtimer121 | yaro: how do i unmount? | 02:53 |
| arvind_khadri | while booting the ubuntu loading bar doesnt show up...any ideas how to get it??? | 02:53 |
| waxhead | I haven't seen any in a while.. and I'm wondering if update manager hasn't updated or something... is there a way to check? | 02:53 |
| Yaro | bigtimer121_: Right click it and click unmount. And it will be gone. But you won't be able ot access it without remounting. | 02:53 |
| chooch1 | i'm talking about something like http://www.virtualdj.com/products/virtualdj/screenshot.html | 02:53 |
| Sylphid | ere4si, ........ im totaly confused by that though... i mean time line matches up .... but that confuses me to the point of taking a shotgun to my computer | 02:53 |
| ahave_ | Yaro, is there a command line command to tell? i am using a diffrent build and does not included the normal menus | 02:53 |
| ere4si | Sylphid: shoot the router not the comp | 02:54 |
| bigtimer121 | yaro: nothing happens when i click unmount | 02:54 |
| Yaro | ahave_: I do not know. Anyone here who knows who can answer? | 02:54 |
| hakie | which is the best music player for ubuntu8.04? who knows? | 02:54 |
| Yaro | hakie: I like Amarok, myself. | 02:54 |

| ere4si | hehe | 02:54 |
| waxhead | I'm on the banshee bandwagon myself | 02:54 |
| zionpsyfer | chooch1: Yeah, I haven't seen anything like virtualdj. Let me know if you run across anything though, I've a few friends who'd love one. | 02:54 |
| arvind_khadri | Hi, While booting the ubuntu loading bar doesnt show up...any ideas how to get it??? | 02:55 |
| Yaro | bigtimer121: You can always use the command line: 'sudo umount /dev/<devide name>' | 02:55 |
| chooch1 | I just remembered, maybe it can run through wine, what do you say? | 02:55 |
| hakie | amarok? i will try it | 02:55 |
| rinnan | Wow -- | 02:56 |

| rinnan | and the wireless drops out randomly... | 02:56 |
| hellues | are there a channel to complain ? | 02:56 |

| arvind_khadri | ere4si, i know,but its been like this since 7.10 didnt have this in 7.04... | 02:58 |
| jrib | hellues: this channel is for ubuntu support, it's not for discussing other channels. Do you have an ubuntu question? | 02:59 |
| arvind_khadri | ere4si, ok let me check up | 02:59 |
| ryugaka | Gutsy was giving me hard locks, so I had to revert back to Windows. | 02:59 |
| ibleed | hellues, nobody is required to answer. people volunteer their time. | 02:59 |
| sebsebseb | helluses: so your java applets don't work. Java plugin in Firefox? | 02:59 |
| plik | hellues: be patient and try again when some different (perhaps more knowledgeable) people are in the channel. | 02:59 |
| zionpsyfer | chooch1: Heh, same. Never really considered it I guess. Wine's getting pretty decent. | 02:59 |
| ryugaka | Should I wait to get Hardy? It just came out :3 | 02:59 |
| ibleed | hellues, maybe you did not wait long enough or nobody was around | 02:59 |
| arvind_khadri | ere4si, loacate cannot open itself | 02:59 |
| hellues | i wonna tell this situtation to someone | 02:59 |
| Yaro | ryugaka: The server lag is almost gone. Shouldn't be too hard to get the ISO now. | 02:59 |
| chooch1 | Hardy even solved some ATI mobility driver issue that kept me trying to fix for hours in Gutsy | 03:00 |
| jrib | hellues: your offtopic, please do not discuss the issue here anymore | 03:00 |
| jrib | you're | 03:00 |

| ryugaka | Gutsy was working fine for me, until last week. | 03:00 |

| ere4si | arvind_khadri: run that command and see the output | 03:00 |
| q_a_z_steve | how do I preview, it doesn't seem to want to play | 03:00 |
| arvind_khadri | ere4si, ok | 03:00 |
| Yaro | ryugaka: Could you be more specific? | 03:00 |
| ryugaka | But Hardy had an ndiswrapper issue. | 03:00 |
| q_a_z_steve | k9copy that is. | 03:00 |
| chooch1 | ryugaka, what happened? | 03:00 |
| qwiksand | hey all... | 03:01 |
| ryugaka | My computer would just freeze. | 03:01 |
| Gramble | bazhang: did you see my question? | 03:01 |
| ryugaka | And 2 buttons on my laptop would flash over and over again. | 03:01 |
| hakie | 8.04 seems a bit slow on my machine. sometimes the screen becomes grey.why? | 03:01 |
| q_a_z_steve | musashi: Starnestommy ^^^ | 03:01 |
| arvind_khadri | ere4si, ok done | 03:01 |
| guest | hakie, have you checked the system monitor? | 03:01 |

| Brenny | hakie, I find 8.04 is overzealous with this and Firefox 3 does it really often | 03:02 |
| arvind_khadri | ere4si, it said only one theme which provides it and stuff | 03:02 |
| bazhang | Gramble: yes, sorry; breezy? is that still supported? you may want to get a more recent version :) | 03:02 |

| musashi | q_a_z_steve, drill down through the chapters. sometimes it will preview if you get to the lower levels of the chapter/title | 03:03 |
| Yaro | evilbug: I know its not helpful, but the best way to upgrade is still typically a clean install. | 03:03 |

| ubuntu_ | can anyone point me in the right directions for installing beryl on ubuntu 8.04?? | 03:05 |
| Yaro | ubuntu_: Beryl doesn't even exist anymore. Compiz-Fusion. | 03:05 |
| zionpsyfer | matt___: Mysql by default only allows connections from localhost. You'll need to edit my.cnf and also allow set up the user so they're allowed to log in from other hosts. (in the users table iirc. % being wildcard) | 03:05 |
| Brenny | ubuntu_, Beryl is not developed anymore. It merged back with Compiz into Compiz Fusion. | 03:06 |
| musashi | ubuntu_, i think beryl is more or less gone. it's compiz now | 03:06 |

| Gramble | bazhang: right. my first step is to upgrade. I've got a new virtual dedicate server from tummy.com. they provide SSH and root and nothing else. | 03:06 |
| musashi | ubuntu_, system-prefs-appearance and set the visual effect to extra. if you have the 3d drivers installed it should just work | 03:06 |

| matt___ | zionpsyfer: i noticed that localhost thing, but what should it be? right now it is 127.0.0.1...but what should it be? the ip of my client? And please explain the user part a little more...but I think you've almost got me there :) | 03:07 |
| Gramble | bazhang: so from what context do I need to run the apt-get upgrade process? from root?!!? | 03:07 |

| evilbug | Yaro- last time i blamed it on the connection being to solicited and packages not downloading all the data. | 03:07 |

| matt___ | Starnestommy: say what? | 03:08 |
| bazhang | Gramble: so you can install on this server via ssh only? | 03:08 |

| matt___ | Starnestommy: would that be what replaces 127.0.0.1? | 03:08 |
| evilbug | Yaro- and now it just told me that my system will be in an unusable state :( NNNNNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO | 03:08 |
| Starnestommy | matt___: the bind-address setting in my.cnf should be 0.0.0.0 if you want it to allow connections from outside | 03:08 |
| arvind_khadri | ere4si, doesnt help...when i boot into the system it says "Cannot Allocate Region xxxxxxx" | 03:08 |

| Gramble | testing Gramble | 03:12 |
| Shpook | I think the next upgrade needs to be more of a diplomatic one rather than a functional one. If they can get enough driver support so that Ubuntu "just works," then it will really appeal to a vast majority. | 03:12 |

| matt___ | Starnestommy: yes | 03:13 |
| Perpetual | I have a problem with usplash - after installing a 2nd OS (debian for example) my usplash stops working correctly. About 10 seconds in to the boot process usplash reverts to text mode at "reading files needed to boot". From there it carries on in text mode until gdm starts. I can't figure out how to correct this. | 03:13 |
| whabo | foxhop: i have 4 gig of ram only 3.2 is recognized | 03:13 |
| chooch1 | Yaro, thanks, I'll try #samba later | 03:13 |
| zionpsyfer | matt___: correct. Look in the mysql db inside the user table | 03:13 |
| foxhop | whabo: You have to remember that video card memory needs to be addressed as well | 03:13 |
| Yaro | Shpook: Anecdotal as it is, my experience with Ubuntu is that it "just works." | 03:13 |

| ToddEDM | ryugaka: it was working under gutsy... i dunno why it wouldnt work on hardy | 03:16 |
| fryfrog | cwillu: as in, at boot, the md module/driver is loading, looking for devices, finding none... *then* the ata/sata driver is loading and finding the disks. which of course, does the auto-detection of md no good | 03:16 |
| AnthroTechie | bazhang: okay | 03:16 |
| foxhop | Whabo, this addressing of memory allocation you see has to do with swap file...The swapped file needs addressing too | 03:16 |
| jcooke | matt___, the simplest thing would just to do "GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON *.* TO 'user'@'hostname' IDENTIFIED BY 'password';" | 03:16 |
| david_-_- | Ahadiel: would that remove all xubuntu stuff if i did it that way as well sudo aptitude --purge remove xubuntu ? after i did the remove xubuntu-desktop? | 03:17 |

| matt___ | jcooke: with this method, is my username "matt" if that's what i put in the quotes before @ | 03:22 |
| jcooke | matt___, yes | 03:22 |
| AnthroTechie | bazhang: so I should file a bug report? | 03:22 |
| matt___ | jcooke: so is this creating a new user? | 03:22 |
| jcooke | matt___, yes | 03:22 |
| microwaver | ToddEDM, Yeah, figured that out. I'm thinking of finding a way what ngdisgtk uses o files so you can put it on usb $> other device | 03:22 |
| matt___ | jcooke: got it, thanks...lettme try this. restart mysql afterwords? | 03:22 |
| ToddEDM | ahh | 03:23 |
| jcooke | matt___, you can run the command with something different in place of *.* also, the first * represents the database name, and the second the table | 03:23 |
| bazhang | LinuxNIT: there should be a remote access gui-->not a webbrowser though afaik-->others here may know though | 03:23 |
| jcooke | matt___, no, privileges should be flushed automatically with grant | 03:23 |
| microwaver | ToddEDM, http://packages.ubuntu.com/feisty/net/ndisgtk perhaps this does the trick | 03:23 |
| microwaver | this made my wirelss working | 03:23 |
| microwaver | ToddEDM, this and ofcourse the driver itself | 03:23 |
| matt___ | jcooke: gotcha...so i hit enter, but didn't get a response, did it work? | 03:23 |
| Yaro | I Am off again folks. All the power and luck to you! | 03:23 |
| Gramble | bazhang: so how are question usually answered? people just scan their logs and respond in a few hours? | 03:23 |
| jcooke | matt___, assuming no errors, yes, it worked | 03:23 |
| matt___ | jcooke: ok, lettme try | 03:24 |
| jcooke | matt___, try running "mysql -umatt -p" | 03:24 |
| jcooke | and use the password you created, that should log you in as that user | 03:24 |
| ToddEDM | microwaver: thx | 03:24 |
| bazhang | AnthroTechie: is it different from the ones already listed? you can confirm the ones already there ubuntu hardy banshee were the search terms I used | 03:24 |
| LinuxNIT | bazhang, i want via web browser so that it can be esily and quickly accessed from multiple pcs and or platforms | 03:24 |
| foxhop | <3 mySQL | 03:24 |
| matt___ | jcooke: um....alright... | 03:24 |
| jcooke | matt___, don't use *.* or "GRANT ALL" for production type use, read up on GRANT further | 03:24 |
| jcooke | matt___, so you can test that it worked :) | 03:24 |
| bazhang | gramble you got a more recent version? can you you install via ssh (know how?) we answer as quick as we can--> sorry for the hold up but juggling 23 things atm | 03:25 |
| matt___ | jcooke: it's odd...hmmm | 03:25 |
| microwaver | jcooke, you have a nice handy phpmyadmin cfg file lying around? :) | 03:25 |
| jcooke | microwaver, I refuse to use phpmyadmin ;x | 03:25 |
| jcooke | microwaver, but if you do, please remember to set up auth for it! | 03:26 |
| ToddEDM | so ok, heres another problem i have microwaver | 03:26 |
| Gramble | bazhang: that's what I need to know: how to install from SSH (context: I have root on my Breezy, but that's all) | 03:26 |
| matt___ | jcooke: its not working...but it does with root...so i don't know...right now i'm trying to login on the server using ssh...so the 192.168.1.% should have that covered... | 03:26 |
| microwaver | jcooke, you do anything in terminal? | 03:26 |
| AnthroTechie | bazhang: okay, thanks | 03:26 |
| microwaver | ToddEDM, yes, tell me | 03:26 |
| bullgard4 | My Tracker applet has gone lost when I completely de-installed and re-installed Tracker. How can I reinstall the Tracker applet? | 03:26 |
| jcooke | matt___, that won't create a system user, just a mysql user | 03:26 |
| jcooke | microwaver, terminal? at the command line you mean? | 03:27 |
| matt___ | jcooke: what do you mean? | 03:27 |
| arvind_khadri | ere4si, ok wil reboot now and report :) | 03:27 |
| microwaver | jcooke, yes. what priveleges should a mysql user need? | 03:27 |
| matt___ | jcooke: i'm trying with matt, not root... | 03:27 |
| ToddEDM | when i leave the laptop for a while, the screen goes black, then when i return and try to move the mouse i get crazy horizontal black and white lines flashing.. then i need to ctrl-backspace to get it to work by logging in again | 03:27 |
| ripper | i can not burn dual layer dvd's with any software (brasero, k3b, gnome-baker) | 03:27 |
| jcooke | matt___, on the box with mysql on it, run "mysql -umatt -p" and see if the password works | 03:27 |
| bazhang | gramble okay let me check on that --> youwill need to upgrade that version to get support though | 03:27 |
| Fritzel | does anyone know of any bug that would cause my pointer to disappear for no reason at all under certain conditions, (busy pointer likes to do it alot) | 03:27 |
| zionpsyfer | matt___: mysql users are completely separate from the linux users. | 03:27 |
| ripper | i keep getting an input/output error | 03:27 |
| matt___ | jcooke: like i said...alreadly tried it, and it doesn't work | 03:28 |
| microwaver | ToddEDM, I think that's OR a screensaver error OR a splashscreen error | 03:28 |
| John_S | Is anyone familiar with "nm-tool"? It says I'm connected via eth0 when I'm using wireless wlan0. My ethernet is not even connected. Any idea of what's going on? | 03:28 |
| matt___ | zionpsyfer: right right...i know...but i'm just saying that the user i created doesn't work... | 03:28 |
| jcooke | matt___, not really able to troubleshoot it, you may want to read up on mysql GRANT | 03:28 |
| IntangibleLiquid | when the battery reaches its critical level, the screen goes blank instead of hibernation. And I have to restart X. How come? | 03:28 |
| bobbo85 | Hi all, I have had Hardy running on my comp from the development area for a few months now, and since the 8.04LTS release came out, I still see a bunch of development options in my boot menu... how can I get it to show the latest LTS version instead of these ones? | 03:28 |
| Perpetual | can anyone assist with my usplash changing to text mode during boot after install a new OS to a seperate partition? | 03:28 |
| matt___ | zionpsyfer: jcooke is there someway i could use the root user (mysql) to "view" the user matt? | 03:28 |
| jcooke | microwaver, creating a user for phpmyadmin? | 03:28 |
| juaco | HI PPL anyone can give me a hand plz... after upgrading from 7.10 to 8.04 i have no text consoles anymore | 03:28 |
| omnistegan | Hey guys, I have two sound cards installed in my system and I need to disable one of them. I've done it before with your help but I can't remember much of what I did. Any suggestions of where to start? | 03:28 |
| microwaver | jcooke, no, a uer for drupal, a cms | 03:28 |
| juaco | , everytime a faulty program locks my keyboard/mouse or if X goes down i have to reboot | 03:29 |
| matt___ | omnistegan: probably blacklist it, knowing the correct things to blacklist of course | 03:29 |
| IntangibleLiquid | omnistegan: I think its in BIOS setup | 03:29 |
| ulugeyik | I have problem after upgrading to hardy, it shows up as "GNOME Settings Daemon problem" and the error message says "Did not receive a reply. Possible causes include: the remote application did not send a reply, the message bus security policy blocked the reply, the reply timeout expired, or the network connection was broken." | 03:29 |
| ToddEDM | micro... ok that may be the prob, the screensaver was set to black screen... i turned it off we will see | 03:29 |
| ulugeyik | I looked at various forums, posted to ubuntu forums, bugzilla, launchpad etc with no luck. | 03:29 |
| microwaver | ToddEDM, does your computer show a ubuntu loading bar when starting up? | 03:30 |
| jcooke | matt___, in mysql, you could do "SELECT User FROM mysql.user WHERE User = 'matt';" | 03:30 |
| icesword | hoho, nice | 03:30 |
| jcooke | if there are no results, then the GRANT failed | 03:30 |
| bazhang | gramble you want to get dapper for that? gutsy or hardy; those are the choices for supported systems | 03:30 |
| ToddEDM | microwaver: yeah | 03:30 |
| jcooke | microwaver, you mean what grant perms? | 03:30 |
| matt___ | jcooke: wow...i'm sorta catching on to this stuff.... | 03:30 |
| matt___ | up? | 03:30 |
| Jeb | dapper = 7.10, correct? | 03:30 |
| matt___ | 22:23 < jcooke> matt___, in mysql, you could do "SELECT User FROM mysql.user WHERE User = 'matt';" | 03:30 |
| Gramble | bazhang: yeah that's what I'm trying to learn how to do: upgrade to 8.04 | 03:30 |
| ulugeyik | thethe error is intermittent, (does not happen ~25% of the time, but in that case wireless does not work) error. After logging in, it shows a black screen, than a blank background and waits for ~1 minute. Then shows the following error. Afterwards, one of the three things happen: | 03:30 |
| ulugeyik | 1) I get unusual icons but everything works, (2) I get unusual icons but after I click on few things, I get back the usual thing, everything works, (3) I get unusual icons, I can't click on any menus or icons. | 03:30 |
| microwaver | jcooke, grant perms he needs | 03:30 |
| jcooke | what were you asking | 03:30 |
| microwaver | ToddEDM, I don't know of such a problem. what you could try is when you leave for a while : do ctrl + alt + l to lock, see if the GUI crashes then | 03:31 |
| the_darkside_986 | does anyone have any idea how to get rosegarden to output sound in Ubuntu 8.04? I'm completely lost | 03:31 |
| DistroJockey | juaco, try removing vga=XXX from the kernel line in /boot/grub/menu.lst | 03:31 |
| RequinB4 | If I had a retailer custom construct my computer for me, where would i find from what hardware manufacturer to get drivers from? | 03:31 |
| microwaver | jcooke, what does a cms need, to create a database, be sure it doesn't get too mutch auth | 03:31 |
| mjbrooks | Jeb, 7.10 is Gutsy | 03:31 |
| matt___ | jcooke: why thought wouldn't that command do anything? | 03:31 |
| Jeb | oh... | 03:31 |
| the_darkside_986 | I've got my sound bank imported, but when I try to play a short composition, no sound results. | 03:31 |
| Jeb | thanks | 03:31 |
| Fritzel | I can't believe Linux finally runs all the things I want it to run and I'm going to have to go back to windows because my pointer won't stay on my screen | 03:31 |
| jcooke | matt___, the original command I gave you, remove the word "PRIVILEGES" | 03:31 |
| jcooke | and re-run it | 03:32 |
| Greencoat1982 | Hello again, got another question for you eboyjr | 03:32 |
| juaco | thx DistroJockey i'm trying that now | 03:32 |
| ToddEDM | micro, im gonna go install that .deb file i got from your link, when i come back i will see if the screen gets fuct | 03:32 |
| matt___ | jcooke: umm...ok.. | 03:32 |
| eboyjr | Greencoat1982, Fire away :) | 03:32 |
| RequinB4 | If I had a retailer custom construct my computer for me, where would i find from what hardware manufacturer to get drivers from? | 03:32 |
| dmakalsky | Hi, I just upgraded my RAM to 4GB and Hardy only reports 3GB | 03:32 |
| dmakalsky | how to fix? | 03:32 |
| DistroJockey | juaco, k, good luck | 03:32 |
| Greencoat1982 | I went into my VB soft and selected my shared folder, but it doesn't show up in my network places under my guest os | 03:32 |
| matt___ | jcooke: so just remove it? | 03:33 |
| bazhang | Gramble: first you need to read this; https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/OverSSH then decide which version you want | 03:33 |
| ulugeyik | any ideas for this daemon error? I am totally puzzled and it slows down things, messes up wireless etc. I do not see any error messages? | 03:33 |
| cwillu | dmakalsky, install the server kernel, (and linux-restricted-modules-2.6.24-16-server by hand, it doesn't have a meta package for the -server kernels) | 03:33 |
| Fezzler | Why is my login screen 800x600 but once logged in my screen is 1024x768? How do I adjust login resolution? | 03:33 |
| jcooke | microwaver, I would do GRANT SELECT,INSERT,UPDATE,CREATE on database.*... | 03:33 |
| dmakalsky | cwillu, can I do it with apt-get? | 03:33 |
| _adriaan | dmakalsky: do you have 32bit version? | 03:33 |
| cwillu | dmakalsky, only the server kernel has -pae installed, which is required to use more than 4g | 03:33 |
| RequinB4 | If I had a retailer custom construct my computer for me, where would i find from what hardware manufacturer to get drivers from? | 03:33 |
| microwaver | jcooke, thanks. | 03:33 |
| TheOzFalcon | the_darkside_986, Have you got rosegarden to work yet? | 03:33 |
| larson9999 | so what are the causes when everything except your mouse is locked up? | 03:33 |
| Gramble | bazhang: ha! perfect. you just gave me my first quest. :-) | 03:33 |
| Greencoat1982 | eboyjr -> am I missing a step somewhere? | 03:33 |
| Fritzel | Okay I may have found a solution but because no one here ever responds to having heard of the bug there's no reason to post it :P | 03:34 |
| cwillu | dmakalsky, apt-get install linux-server linux-restricted-modules-2.6.24-16-server | 03:34 |
| microwaver | jcooke, hmm gotta get used to the cli :p cuz haven't set up a config for phpmyadmin | 03:34 |
| curiogeo | just upgraded from Gutsy to Hardy and now all of my gksudo apps will not start up ie Hardware Drivers, Synaptic - none of them are giving me a password prompt when I try to start them and they are failing to even open in the GDM | 03:34 |
| the_darkside_986 | I've gotten rosegarden to work without giving errors, but I'm not sure how to make sound produced from it. | 03:34 |
| Spaz1331 | I have two issues: one can I stop firefox from getting focus when I click a hyperlink in evolution? two: when can I put a script (or link to a script) to be run when I login to gdm? | 03:34 |
| jcooke | microwaver, I may be missing one, it could need DELETE, but I hate having to give delete to an application | 03:34 |
| _adriaan | Fritzel: Why the drama? | 03:34 |
| cwillu | dmakalsky, you'll have to install the newer restricted modules each time the kernel is updated (unless they fix the meta-package thing) | 03:34 |
| bazhang | Gramble: if you have more questions after reading then come back and ask :) | 03:34 |
| TheOzFalcon | the_darkside_986, What is rosegarden??? | 03:34 |
| Gramble | bazhang: nice. ttys. | 03:35 |
| dmakalsky | cwillu, ok, thanks a lot | 03:35 |
| jcooke | matt___, yes | 03:35 |
| RequinB4 | If I had a retailer custom construct my computer for me, where would i find from what hardware manufacturer to get drivers from? | 03:35 |
| eboyjr | Greencoat1982, In Windows XP go to Start > Run > then type in 'cmd'... | 03:35 |
| microwaver | jcooke, hmmm good remark. I may understand UPDATE = ALTER ? | 03:35 |
| Fritzel | _adriaan, because I've tried getting help with this bug at least 10 times over the past month and a half, and not once has anyone even acknowledged that I asked a question, I'm not demanding support, but acknowledgement would be ncie | 03:35 |
| the_darkside_986 | Rosegarden is the music tool in the Ubuntu repositories (under Add/Remove) | 03:35 |
| microwaver | RequinB4, you want to know what hardware is in ur machine? | 03:35 |
| the_darkside_986 | I don't know of any other decent music maker for Ubuntu | 03:35 |
| Greencoat1982 | eboyjr -> done | 03:35 |
| jcooke | microwaver, no, ALTER lets the user change the database schema(including dropping columns), don't give it ALTER | 03:35 |
| dmakalsky | cwillu, is there a conceptual reason why non servers are restricted to 3GB of RAM? | 03:35 |
| === GreenGlenn is now known as greenglenn | ||
| jcooke | update != alter | 03:35 |
| demonspork | hi, what does it mean when almost every program I try to run exits with "Segmentation Fault" | 03:35 |
| sefr0m | comming back to irc | 03:36 |
| RequinB4 | microwaver - the brand | 03:36 |
| jcooke | update = update a row | 03:36 |
| microwaver | jcooke, give it delete but not alter :) | 03:36 |
| eboyjr | Greencoat1982, "net use x: \\vboxsvr\sharename" is what you type in and replace x: with the drive letter that you want to use, and sharename with the name of the share | 03:36 |
| bullgard4 | My Tracker applet has gone lost when I completely de-installed and re-installed Tracker. How can I reinstall the Tracker applet? | 03:36 |
| bobbo85 | How can I clean up my boot menu? It displays tons of beta versions of Hardy right now | 03:36 |
| cwillu | dmakalsky, 32bit processors can only address 4gb (and that's still a limitation with the 32-bit server kernel*_ | 03:36 |
| microwaver | RequinB4, in terminal try : lspci / lsusb, lshw | 03:36 |
| jcooke | microwaver, maybe delete, that'll let it delete rows, if there were some sort of SQL exploit for the app though, it could let people delete data | 03:36 |
| sefr0m | can i use vim for journalism writing or is a little bit nerd? | 03:36 |
| Fritzel | _adriaan, and if it was a bug I could work with it'd be one thing but when your pointer goes invisible it's pretty hard to work around that one | 03:36 |
| dmakalsky | cwillu, so then whats the deal with the 3GB limit? | 03:36 |
| demonspork | bobbo85, /boot/grub/menu.lst | 03:36 |
| TheOzFalcon | the_darkside_986, Im installing now (curious) rosegarden. | 03:36 |
| ulugeyik | sefr0m, no, it would not be too nerdy. why not. | 03:36 |
| matt___ | jcooke: still nothing..would there be a problem if that user already exists OR the password is the same as root? | 03:37 |
| bobbo85 | thanks demonspork | 03:37 |
| microwaver | jcooke, gotta read through the notes of DRUPAL if it uses it safe. and itself is safe | 03:37 |
| Greencoat1982 | eboyjr > ok so if I shared /home/xusr/programs I type \\vboxsrvr\home\xusr\programs ? | 03:37 |
| cwillu | dmakalsky, the -server kernel has pae enabled, which lets the kernel address more memory, but any given process is still limited to 4gb of address space (which isn't exactly the same thing as memory, but it's close) | 03:37 |
| RequinB4 | microwaver: no, those give me the make and model not the company | 03:37 |
| cwillu | dmakalsky, pae however does have a slight performance overhead, so you (or rather, I) don't want it unless you actually have more memory | 03:37 |
| jcooke | microwaver, I'm reading some people grant DROP, and ALTER, which isn't smart since it'll allow the user to drop tables completelt | 03:37 |
| eboyjr | Greencoat1982, No, the name of the share that gets assigned that folder | 03:37 |
| microwaver | RequinB4, normally there would be : ATI or NVIDIA in the names. | 03:37 |
| docta_v | how can i tell debuild not to clean all makefiles, etc. before compiling | 03:37 |
| jcooke | maybe add "CREATE TEMPORARY TABLES" to that list of perms | 03:38 |
| docta_v | debuild is improperly deleting some of the makefiles | 03:38 |
| jcooke | matt___, no | 03:38 |
| docta_v | and then it fails to build | 03:38 |
| Greencoat1982 | eboyjr Ok, I'm not sure what you mean by share | 03:38 |
| jcooke | matt___, what did it output when you ran that query | 03:38 |
| dmakalsky | cwillu, I hope the extra gig of RAM is worth the hit :) | 03:38 |
| matt___ | jcooke: so what is the command thing again to view the user = matt table? | 03:38 |
| bobbo85 | Can I get my OS to change from Ubuntu hardy (development branch), kernel 2.6.24-16-generic to the latest LTS? | 03:38 |
| Fritzel | _adriaan, I do owe you at least some thanks for your questioning my drama though, and I appologize for it, but that's the most acknowledgement I've gotten that I even had a problem since I started asking the question. again I apologize, and thank you for responding | 03:38 |
| matt___ | jcooke: SHOW FROM mysql.user WHERE USER = matt | 03:38 |
| mjbrooks | Greencoat1982, you'd be using he sharename which would probably have defaulted to \\vboxsvr\programs if you hadn't changed it when you set it up | 03:38 |
| cwillu | dmakalsky, probably; avoiding swap is almost always a win | 03:38 |
| eboyjr | Greencoat1982, When you click on the shared folders in the bottom right, what do you see that comes up? | 03:38 |
| IntangibleLiquid | what is Multicast DNS service discovery for? can I safely disable it? | 03:39 |
| curiogeo | if I have upgraded to Hardy and I appear to be having issues is there a way I can repair the installation with a CD The live version I have does not have the option so I am wondering if it will kill my current setup if I install over the upgraded version of Hardy? | 03:39 |
| Greencoat1982 | ah | 03:39 |
| jcooke | matt___, try this: "GRANT ALL ON *.* TO 'matt'@'192.168.1.%' IDENTIFIED BY 'password'" replace password with your own. | 03:39 |
| Greencoat1982 | so it would be just the last folder name in the directory that I want to share | 03:39 |
| RequinB4 | microwaver - i know its broadcom, i mean where to get drivers | 03:39 |
| cwillu | IntangibleLiquid, google is a better bet for that sort of thing; it's a standard feature however | 03:39 |
| arvind_khadri | isnt xrandr anymore in 8.04 | 03:40 |
| microwaver | RequinB4, you want to get your wireless card working | 03:40 |
| IntangibleLiquid | cwillu: thanks. I'm googling | 03:40 |
| matt___ | now wait...does the GRANT come after a "? | 03:40 |
| arvind_khadri | bazhang, xrandr ??? | 03:40 |
| bullgard4 | My Tracker applet has gone lost when I completely de-installed and re-installed Tracker. How can I reinstall the Tracker applet? | 03:40 |
| jcooke | matt___, don't paste the double quotes, everything inside them | 03:40 |
| matt___ | alright....like i was... | 03:40 |
| Greencoat1982 | eboyjr ok I tried net use Z: \\vboxsrvr\Programs and it gave me error 53 | 03:40 |
| cwillu | arvind_khadri, I've got xrandr, dunno | 03:40 |
| jcooke | RequinB4, which model broadcom and 32bit or 65bit? | 03:41 |
| RequinB4 | microwaver - i can do it i just need the right drivers | 03:41 |
| RequinB4 | 32 | 03:41 |
| dmakalsky | on another note... how do I get rid of that annoying indexer thing in gnome that's thrashing my system? | 03:41 |
| arvind_khadri | cwillu, its all wierd | 03:41 |
| RequinB4 | 4306 rev 03 | 03:41 |
| Spaz1331 | Is there a way to keep focus inside Evolution when clicking a hyperlink? | 03:41 |
| ulugeyik | ok, I guess I am not asking the right question. | 03:41 |
| matt___ | jcooke: how should i exit mysql? i've been control+z | 03:41 |
| microwaver | RequinB4, 32? | 03:41 |
| eboyjr | Greencoat1982, Try taking out the space after Z: | 03:41 |
| mjbrooks | jcooke, hehe 65bit... when 64bit isn't enough | 03:41 |
| matt___ | jcooke: isn't exit supposed to work? | 03:41 |
| microwaver | RequinB4, if you do lshw you get network sections, they should give info on the right wireless pci card | 03:41 |
| matt___ | mjbrooks: i'm up to 66 :) | 03:41 |
| jcooke | mjbrooks, I think my notebook may be a bad copy ;( | 03:41 |
| ldle | Hi, just installed ubuntu 8 and i've clicked on the clock and now the toolbars are frozen? | 03:42 |
| jcooke | matt___, "exit;" | 03:42 |
| Greencoat1982 | eboyjr Ok that gives me error 67 | 03:42 |
| matt___ | jcooke: ohhh....... | 03:42 |
| jcooke | matt___, all queries end with a ; | 03:42 |
| bazhang | arvind_khadri: you have a question about that? | 03:42 |

| gregbrady | Is there an easy to follow step by step tutorial out there that shows how to setup a dual booting thin client for running a remote X session? | 03:44 |
| microwaver | RequinB4, https://help.ubuntu.com/7.10/internet/C/ndiswrapper.html worked like a charm for me | 03:44 |
| cwillu | arvind_khadri, (or ubuntu-desktop even?) | 03:44 |
| jcooke | Anyone know how to remove "known" wireless essids from the network manager so it doesn't auto-connect to them? | 03:44 |
| arvind_khadri | bazhang, when i try to change the screen resolution a pop up says it cant find xrandr | 03:44 |
| arvind_khadri | cwillu, yeah i have | 03:44 |
| cwillu | arvind_khadri, any standard install with x should have it | 03:44 |
| RequinB4 | jcooke - that's what i'm trying to get to work, some say that if it doesn't work i need diff drivers. mjbrooks, yes, i know. microwaver, i can get ndiswrapper to work the question is getting the drivers that work | 03:44 |
| cwillu | arvind_khadri, how are you checking that you don't have xrandr? | 03:44 |
| amenado | tha_toadman-> hey..please clarify the problem | 03:44 |
| DistroJockey | juaco, Any luck? | 03:44 |
| arvind_khadri | cwillu, sudo apt-cache policy xrandr | 03:44 |
| cwillu | arvind_khadri, it's not in its own package | 03:44 |
| microwaver | RequinB4, gotta know what wireless card u have :) | 03:44 |
| cwillu | arvind_khadri, try typing it in :p | 03:45 |
| jcooke | RequinB4, what happened with the other drivers? | 03:45 |
| amenado | jcooke-> modify your /etc/network/interfaces if they appear there | 03:45 |
| eboyjr | Greencoat1982, Do you have Guest Additions enabled? | 03:45 |
| bazhang | arvind_khadri: via sudo displayconfig-gtk? | 03:45 |
| Greencoat1982 | eboyjr where do I enable that? | 03:45 |
| tha_toadman | amenado: thank you! when i go to boot my server..it hangs on "NET: Resolving protocol family 17" for about 60 seconds | 03:45 |
| arvind_khadri | bazhang, from the gui not cli | 03:45 |
| jcooke | amenado, nope, not there | 03:45 |
| cwillu | arvind_khadri, if you have x installed, you have xrandr, it's in /usr/bin/ | 03:45 |
| arvind_khadri | bazhang, let me try the cli one | 03:45 |
| matt___ | jcooke: oh, alright | 03:45 |
| TheOzFalcon | the_darkside_986, Have you tried Schism Tracker or Chibi Tracker | 03:45 |
| amenado | jcooke-> no essid appears there? | 03:45 |
| RequinB4 | jcooke - failed completely, ndiswrapper -l shows fine so i have to assume its the driver. microwaver Broadcom BCM4306 rev 03 | 03:45 |
| matt___ | jcooke: could this be it? | 03:45 |
| jcooke | amenado, none | 03:45 |

| dmakalsky | cwillu, ok... rebooted now it says I am running Kernel 2.6.24-16-server but RAM is still 3GB. Please note the BIOS says 4GB (I am not insane) | 03:46 |
| Farajamo | Hey, anyone think they can help me with installing ubuntu on a diff comp? | 03:46 |
| jcooke | mjbrooks, where's this trusted list you speak of | 03:46 |
| amenado | tha_toadman-> does your server have a static ip address? | 03:46 |
| legatic | ok, I have another question. I seem to be having issues with not being root. I'm trying to install the google browser sync extension for firefox2, but since firefox2 is installed in a root area, I don't think it's letting me add the extension. how to I allow the extension to install itself in a root area? | 03:46 |
| eboyjr | Greencoat1982, Its a program that gets installed on the Guerst OS.. You can do this by going to the first item on the menu bar of the Guest OS window ( I cant remember the name ) and choose Guest Additions | 03:46 |
| arvind_khadri | bazhang, from the cli it works but not from the GUi :) | 03:46 |
| microwaver | RequinB4, download the windows driver and use https://help.ubuntu.com/7.10/internet/C/ndiswrapper.html that worked for me, i thnk i hae a similar card | 03:46 |
| Greencoat1982 | ok eboyjr I am again an idiot overlooking a step in my haste | 03:46 |

| dmakalsky | gnome system monitor | 03:46 |
| juaco | DistroJockey yup...it works - i wonder how could i get that 1280x1024-24 console now | 03:46 |
| dmakalsky | cwillu, where should I check? | 03:47 |
| RequinB4 | microwaver - i don't have access to the repos | 03:47 |
| arvind_khadri | bazhang, The X Server does not support the XRandR extension. Runtime resolution changes to the display size are not available. | 03:47 |
| amenado | tha_toadman-> what do you mean off of my router? can you clarify? | 03:47 |
| arvind_khadri | bazhang, that was the message i got | 03:47 |

| ayllu_ | I get could not connect to video device | 03:47 |
| dmakalsky | cwillu, free -m still shows 3033 | 03:48 |

| arvind_khadri | cwillu, the one which came with in xserver | 03:48 |
| tha_toadman | amenado: gave it -- oops | 03:48 |
| DistroJockey | juaco, cool. Not sure on that. But it is a known problem, so there should be a fix/workaround. Best of luck. | 03:48 |
| amenado | tha_toadman-> that still does not explain how is the static ip address is assigned | 03:48 |
| cwillu | arvind_khadri, ... | 03:48 |
| cwillu | arvind_khadri, what kind of video card do you have | 03:48 |

| tha_toadman | amenado: i did assign it through /etc/network/interfaces | 03:48 |
| Shadow420 | RequinB4 ok then what is trhe problem? | 03:48 |
| mjbrooks | jcooke, poke around with the options/configure menu items, it should be in there somewhere | 03:49 |
| arvind_khadri | cwillu, the restricted drivers | 03:49 |
| jcooke | RequinB4, does the interface show up at least? | 03:49 |
| Farajamo | Hey, anyone in here think they can help me with installing Ubuntu on a different comp? | 03:49 |
| amenado | tha_toadman-> can you paste your interfaces file? in pastebin off course, and what error if any are you getting? | 03:49 |
| Greencoat1982 | and that fixed it, thanks yet again eboyjr | 03:49 |
| legatic | ok, I have another question. I seem to be having issues with not being root. I'm trying to install the google browser sync extension for firefox2, but since firefox2 is installed in a root area, I don't think it's letting me add the extension. how to I allow the extension to install itself in a root area? | 03:49 |

| Ratshell | Question anyone know of a ftp client for ubuntu, that allows me to ftp to my server and edit a file live. So when I save the file it is automatically updated on the server? | 03:51 |
| bazhang | Gramble: what version you going to go with? Hardy? | 03:51 |

| Shadow420 | RequinB4 ok thats a stumper I never had aa problem accessing my network on gutsy but hardy I am not sure | 03:52 |
| Gramble | bazhang: i just assumed Hardy, but i haven't gotten thru this doc yet. | 03:52 |

| LadyNikon | fde: you still about? | 03:54 |
| ToddEDM | np | 03:54 |
| guest | Ratshell, i cant really say i've used anything else other than that and gftp, but gftp isnt really what you're looking for | 03:54 |
| demonspork | Shadow420, I disagree | 03:54 |
| jcooke | ha! found it, just have to delete the folder with the ssid name in ~/.gconf/system/networking/wireless/networks | 03:54 |
| insomnia | why exactly? and if i do... will i lose any saved work, docs, progs? | 03:54 |
| shreeki | slowing as in: when i close windows, it 'fades' away slowly. switching to another workplace goes slowly. opening a window doesn't happen..quickly. even typing words is slow. | 03:54 |
| rkvirani | anyone here use irssi?whoa | 03:54 |
| jcooke | there's probably some gui way to do it, but whatever works | 03:54 |
| LadyNikon | andres: please be patient and don't repeat | 03:55 |
| bazhang | Gramble: I would suggest getting a clear picture of what you want to do (after reading those docs) post something on the forums (ubuntuforums.org) and ask some informed questions here--virtual server and cfdisk over ssh? that sounds very complex and I really havent a clue about it-->though others here may | 03:55 |
| Ratshell | guest, how you mean to do it in Nautilus, cause if your talking the connect to server thing I tried that then opened a file with gedit and it says can't save cause file is read-only. | 03:55 |
| LadyNikon | andres: if someone can help you they can.. if not try the forums or the wiki :) | 03:55 |
| sefr0m | ulugeyik thaks, i will try on it | 03:55 |
| fazed | ya know, i don't really have any questions about Ubuntu, everything works pretty well | 03:55 |
| Gramble | bazhang: sounds good. thx. | 03:55 |
| guest | Ratshell, are you sure you're allowed to write to the ftp server? | 03:55 |
| demonspork | good to hear fazed | 03:55 |
| jcooke | mjbrooks, thanks though, adding "trusted" to my google found the answer :D | 03:55 |
| insomnia | shadow420: why exactly? and if i do... will i lose any saved work, docs, progs? | 03:55 |
| Ratshell | guest, yeah I can connect to the ftp np upload download its just when I got through nautilus it says the file is readonly with gedit | 03:56 |
| AdrianStrays | So I've got a huge collection of music downloaded from Itunes, and I'm switching over to Linux. I'm looking for ways to remove the DRM protection, or atleast circumvent it. Does anyone know how I can either remove it, take it off an ipod as an MP3, or install itunes in hardy? | 03:56 |
| bigtimer121 | how do i install a file. "jre-6u5-linux-i586.bin" | 03:56 |
| fazed | one day i will learn to download and install software... but it is not something i am really worried about with the package manager | 03:56 |
| mjbrooks | jcooke, least I got you close ;) | 03:56 |
| Shadow420 | insomnia I everything u have wil still be there excpet for some progs that are old and outdated | 03:56 |
| mjbrooks | shreeki, sounds like you're having memory issues | 03:57 |
| mjbrooks | shreeki, hwo much meory do you have installed? | 03:57 |
| insomnia | alright but how will that help me with themes? more support for gtk2? | 03:57 |
| guest | Ratshell, i'm not sure how to solve that then, sorry. is it possible to ssh to the ftp server? or is it out of your hands? | 03:57 |
| fazed | Adrian, the 'legal' way to do it would be to burn to a cd and then rip in to mp3... | 03:57 |
| Lynet | AdrianStrays: Burn it all to CDs and import. Or try to find a hack. Oh, and remember that DRM is evil and that you wow to never buy that **** again. | 03:57 |
| Gramble | bazhang: well, let's just skip the upgrade and talk about how to create a new "user" on bash/unix. could you point me to some reading on that? | 03:57 |

| shreeki | memory = 3.0GiB according to System Moniter (sorry, i'm just a noob) | 03:58 |
| AdrianStrays | fazed, I would literally spend days converting this burning/ripping this library. I put it on a DVD, but it became a data dvd, so that was useless. No hacks seem to exist | 03:58 |
| mjbrooks | !ask > madmoomix | 03:58 |
| luderacer | shreeki, 32bit? | 03:58 |
| fazed | there were hacks | 03:58 |
| Ratshell | aoglobalent, umm nope talking to guest, but I can try to help you what you need? | 03:58 |
| fazed | but i think they may have updated the encryption | 03:59 |
| Lynet | AdrianStrays: Then take it as an object lesson on why DRM stinks. | 03:59 |
| melter | is there a way to get a list of files that were installed for a package? | 03:59 |

| aoglobalent | thanxs | 04:02 |
| aoglobalent | be back at you guys in a few | 04:02 |
| madmoomix | As simple as possible: Ubuntu installed just fine, booted just fine. I updated the system, and restarted. GRUB, after loading the kernal, would restart the computer (playing with it, it seems to be an Ubuntu problem). Tried re-installing. The kernal on the live-cd no longer boots (not a bad disc, checked multiple discs multiple times). The alt-install disc booted, installed. That installation never even started, LILO threw some er | 04:02 |
| madmoomix | ror or another. Put in original live CD. Boots, installs, won't load at all. Same problem. Alt-Install CD now locks up too. | 04:02 |
| aoglobalent | going to get Unix as well | 04:02 |
| Lynet | AdrianStrays: Barring any hack, the way to do it is to burn to regular audio cds and reimport in linux. If you are unhappy with the situation get angry at Apple or the music industry, not at us. | 04:02 |
| shreeki | i installed the latest one: hardy heron yesterday. | 04:02 |
| bazhang | Bodsda: you know waht error 22 is right? | 04:02 |

| tha_toadman | amenado: i need to check... i have to instances of "eth0: link up" then a [fail]...then *setting the system clock*...i'll check the logs | 04:02 |
| LadyNikon | guest: my husband wanted to go see ironman instead | 04:02 |
| guest | oh, i've had problems with my 8800 after i got it with gutsy, now its recognized in hardy but after its installed it shows a blank screen :( | 04:02 |

| Gramble | hey absolutley anybody: I'm in root. How do I make a new user? | 04:03 |

| LadyNikon | Gramble: you are the user. who sudo's as root | 04:03 |
| tha_toadman | amenado: i was headed for /var/log/messages but i'll look there...brb | 04:03 |
| amenado | Gramble-> you have done some tutorial in how to use linux? if not, may I suggest a tutorial? | 04:04 |
| Gramble | amenado: yes pls | 04:04 |
| amenado | tha_toadman-> thats the directory where most logs are | 04:04 |
| fazed | there is a tutorial for linux? | 04:04 |
| LadyNikon | fazed: tons | 04:04 |
| fazed | sweet | 04:04 |
| aoglobalent | Rat I know this question is Stupid, but what is the "REAL" differnece between Unix and Lunix? | 04:04 |
| shreeki | luderacer, i have vista and gutsy (dual). then i updated to hardy. once i did that, everything became slower. i don't know what is going on and i'm wondering what i can do to fix it. any help would be appreciated. | 04:04 |
| bazhang | Bodsda: you want me to google for you :) | 04:04 |
| Gramble | amenado: that's where I need to start | 04:04 |
| fazed | well, i usually just google my questions | 04:04 |
| Bodsda | Gramble: #ubuntuforums-beginners are happy to help new users get started | 04:04 |
| cwillu | aoglobalent, unix == car, linux == toyota | 04:05 |
| LadyNikon | aoglobalent: linux is an entention of unix | 04:05 |
| Bodsda | bazhang: can do but ive tried manual entry | 04:05 |
| root_____ | can someone help me find Phex for Ubuntu? I can't find it in any packages. | 04:05 |
| eaglestar83 | hi i was trying to set up samba to work with vmplayer and i think i messed up my network now when i try to do sudo it says sudo: unable to resolve host ahren-laptop | 04:05 |
| aoglobalent | which would be conisdered "Better" | 04:05 |
| luderacer | shreeki, did you upgrade or do a clean install? | 04:05 |
| aoglobalent | ? | 04:05 |
| mjbrooks | root_____, it comes as a java JAR for linux... no debs http://www.phex.org/mambo/content/view/17/29/ | 04:05 |
| madmoomix | linux =/= unix, guys | 04:05 |
| Bodsda | root_____: have u searched on packages.ubuntu.com ?? | 04:05 |
| Gramble | Bodsda: nice. that's my next step i reckon. | 04:05 |
| Starnestommy | aoglobalent: Unix is a family of operating systems. GNU/Linux is a unix-like operating system that was made from scratch | 04:05 |
| aoglobalent | Unix or Lunix? | 04:05 |
| bazhang | aoglobalent: this is not really a chat channel; please /join #ubuntu-offtopic thanks | 04:05 |
| fazed | for example, i was about to google "does wireshark capture packets with WEP information" | 04:05 |
| furicle | adub: missing usb.h is the first error - check the package to see what you need to compile it - libusb-dev or something like that? | 04:05 |
| shreeki | luderacer, upgrade | 04:05 |
| amenado | Gramble-> http://free-electrons.com/doc/unix_linux_introduction.pdf is a good one | 04:05 |
| Chapai | because its not there root_____ have you tried wine with it | 04:05 |
| root_____ | Bodsda, i'll try that now | 04:05 |
| Starnestommy | aoglobalent: and there's more than one Unix | 04:05 |
| guest | LadyNikon, your card isnt even listed in the compatibility list https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsVideoCardsNvidia have you had any linux distro working on it before? | 04:05 |
| luderacer | shreeki, ive found its better to do a clean install rather then upgrade | 04:05 |
| Bodsda | Gramble: were always happy to help in there also in ##beginners-help | 04:05 |
| LadyNikon | guest: as i said.. it was working fine before I updated | 04:06 |
| shreeki | what does a clean install mean? | 04:06 |
| guest | LadyNikon, sorry, i didnt catch that :) | 04:06 |
| tha_toadman | amenado: "boot" has 'nothing logged yet' | 04:06 |
| luderacer | totally reinstall the os and not upgrade | 04:06 |
| bazhang | shreeki: erasing everything before install | 04:06 |
| LadyNikon | guest: its ok .. thats why i repeated | 04:06 |
| Bodsda | shreeki: install after a format of the hard drive | 04:06 |
| LadyNikon | guest: text moves fast -.- | 04:06 |
| tha_toadman | amenado: syslog has messages but i'm not seeing any errors | 04:06 |
| root_____ | an alternative to a samba for vmware would be to install ext2/ext3 support for windows to get to the linux files on windows. | 04:06 |
| mjbrooks | shreeki, it means installing on a clean partition, rather than upgradign from a previous installation | 04:06 |
| Gramble | heh ... this rocks. that's what i needed. (off to rumage about) | 04:06 |
| Gramble | thx much | 04:07 |
| shreeki | wouldn't clean install mean having everything (ie. documents/pictures/music) deleted? | 04:07 |
| luderacer | yes' | 04:07 |
| Starnestommy | shreeki: you can usually back those things up | 04:07 |
| amenado | tha_toadman-> and the /var/log/messages ? anything? | 04:07 |
| Bodsda | shreeki: no, u can dual boot on a single hard drive without loss of data | 04:07 |
| mjbrooks | shreeki, you need to back those up first | 04:07 |
| Bodsda | bazhang: any thougts on what i can do? | 04:07 |
| Starnestommy | a lot of people keep their /home on a separate partition | 04:07 |
| root_____ | Bodsda, no "phex" package on package.ubuntu.com, the program has around 1 million downloads, you think it would be popular enough to have a *.deb made for Ubuntu | 04:07 |
| eaglestar83 | any help | 04:07 |
| bazhang | Bodsda: grub is messed up? you tried reinstalling it? | 04:08 |
| root_____ | eaglestar83, you get my message above? | 04:08 |
| mjbrooks | root_____, it's a JAR, no need for apackage | 04:08 |
| Bodsda | root_____: it may have one just not in the repo's -- check their home site for a debian download | 04:08 |
| melter | is there an apt-get or apt-cache command to get a list of files that were installed for a package? | 04:08 |
| Starnestommy | melter: dpkg -L packagename | 04:08 |
| Bodsda | bazhang: countless times -- but on my own, only tutos to help | 04:08 |
| root_____ | mjbrooks: shoot, forgot about that, thanks | 04:08 |
| * mjbrooks loads his shotgun | 04:08 | |
| eaglestar83 | yeah root i saw that how do i fix trying to go to sudo | 04:09 |
| melter | Starnestommy, thanks! | 04:09 |
| madmoomix | sorry to repeat this, but... | 04:09 |
| madmoomix | As simple as possible: Ubuntu installed just fine, booted just fine. I updated the system, and restarted. GRUB, after loading the kernal, would restart the computer (playing with it, it seems to be an Ubuntu problem). Tried re-installing. The kernal on the live-cd no longer boots (not a bad disc, checked multiple discs multiple times). The alt-install disc booted, installed. That installation never even started, LILO threw some er | 04:09 |
| madmoomix | ror or another. Put in original live CD. Boots, installs, won't load at all. Same problem. Alt-Install CD now locks up too. | 04:09 |
| shreeki | i'm not quite sure how to go about storing all documents etc. on to a partition that will not be involved in a clean upgrade. what is the best way to know make sure everything is safe? | 04:09 |
| Shadow420 | root_____ also enable the backport and multiverse repos | 04:09 |
| eaglestar83 | sudo: unable to resolve host ahren-laptop | 04:09 |
| Bodsda | melter: those would be dependencies but im not sure other then reading the message while downloading the package | 04:09 |
| bazhang | shreeki: usb key | 04:09 |
| root_____ | Eaglestar83: the name of the program you need is ext2ifs_1_11.exe | 04:09 |
| tha_toadman | amenado: i have the log but i don't see any errors :( | 04:09 |
| eaglestar83 | how do i install ext2/3 file sharing for windows root | 04:09 |
| Bodsda | shreeki: make a new partition with gparted or back it up and move to a seperate hard drive | 04:09 |
| shreeki | bazhang, ahaha of course | 04:09 |
| root_____ | Eaglestar83: that will let you view ext2/3 linux partitions on your windows through vmware or dualboot | 04:09 |
| eaglestar83 | i have windows net setup from vista partition | 04:09 |
| tha_toadman | amenado: pm? i'll send the log if you don't mind | 04:10 |
| neon | does lm-sensors work with intel pm965 notebook chipset | 04:10 |
| sebsebseb | eaglestar83: you want to access your Linux partitions in Windows? | 04:10 |
| mjbrooks | madmoomix, did you burn the disk in auto mode or DAO? | 04:10 |
| amenado | tha_toadman-> maybe its not really an error, you are just impatient? | 04:10 |
| eaglestar83 | no | 04:10 |
| eaglestar83 | i don't use windows | 04:10 |
| DG19075 | shreeki: Or use a USB drive. I do | 04:10 |
| root_____ | eaglestar83: that program creates a new drive in windows, like g:, and you can share that through windows sharing like any other folder | 04:10 |
| eaglestar83 | only there in case my newbie head screws up something in ubuntu | 04:10 |
| eaglestar83 | sudo: unable to resolve host ahren-laptop | 04:10 |
| amenado | tha_toadman-> no pm for me..can receive them | 04:10 |
| root_____ | eaglestar83: oh, ok, i thought you wanted samba working on vmware (meaning windows) | 04:10 |
| eaglestar83 | this is what it says in term when i press sudo | 04:10 |
| madmoomix | mjbrooks, tried both, and had someone else burn me a third. All check 100% (the other person's checked on their machine, just in case). | 04:10 |
| eaglestar83 | i have vmware of suse with open project | 04:10 |
| cwillu | eaglestar83, rename your machine recently? | 04:10 |
| tha_toadman | amenado, i disagree...it's a core 2 duo and i just formatted it from 7.04 to 8.04 - my 7.04 was up in like 30 seconds | 04:11 |
| root_____ | eaglestar83: try finding the local ip of that computer, like 192.168.1.3 | 04:11 |
| eaglestar83 | i think i renamed domain on accident | 04:11 |
| Bodsda | eaglestar83: are you part of the sudoers list? | 04:11 |
| shreeki | THANKS EVERYONE! | 04:11 |
| Bodsda | np | 04:11 |
| eaglestar83 | how do i fix it | 04:11 |
| mjbrooks | np | 04:11 |
| eaglestar83 | bodsda | 04:11 |
| Starnestommy | eaglestar83: go into recovery mode, then add "127.0.1.1 ahren-laptop" to /etc/hosts where it says 127.0.1.1 | 04:11 |
| Bodsda | eaglestar83: no idea -- sounds like its your machine name has been changed | 04:11 |
| tha_toadman | amenado: whats with a numbers next to the boot sequence?? | 04:11 |
| cwillu | eaglestar83, /etc/hosts needs to have a match for the current hostname for sudo to work | 04:11 |
| DistroJockey | eaglestar83, you will need to fix /etc/hosts (probably via a live cd) | 04:11 |
| Bodsda | eaglestar83: listen to Starnestommy | 04:12 |
| imac | HI! What's the difference between Ubuntu and Suse Linux? Why does the Suse install DVD contain over 4GB? And why choose one over the other? | 04:12 |
| fazed | so guys, wireshark doesn't handle decryption does it? | 04:12 |
| amenado | tha_toadman-> well you can start digging to the rc.d or init.d for the network startup and monitor those to see if its hanging anywhere | 04:12 |
| cwillu | eaglestar83, if sudo doesn't work right now, reboot into the recovery kernel | 04:12 |
| root_____ | fazed: no | 04:12 |
| cwillu | eaglestar83, it'll dump you at a root prompt where you can fix it | 04:12 |
| sebsebseb | imac: most Linux distros are rather similar | 04:12 |
| Bodsda | bazhang: your my last hope dude, what shall i do? | 04:12 |
| amenado | tha_toadman-> what number? pid? | 04:12 |
| tha_toadman | amenado: like [ 26.643986 ] | 04:13 |
| eaglestar83 | so i go to pico /etc/hosts | 04:13 |
| sebsebseb | imac: the install DVD for Suse contains 4GB's of stuff since it will put on a lot of packages/programs I suppouse | 04:13 |
| cwillu | imac, lots of stuff, and yet not a lot of stuff; ask suse, we don't know anything about their dvd here; preferences | 04:13 |
| tha_toadman | amenado: seems like a timer to me...? | 04:13 |
| Starnestommy | eaglestar83: yes | 04:13 |
| bazhang | http://sudan.ubuntuforums.com/showthread.php?t=700082 Bodsda check this | 04:13 |
| imac | sebsebseb: so why is ubuntu more popular? | 04:13 |
| amenado | tha_toadman-> i dont know | 04:13 |
| eaglestar83 | so i go to pico etc/hosts | 04:13 |
| Starnestommy | imac: it mas a better community and is more user-friendly | 04:13 |
| root_____ | sebsebseb: driver support | 04:13 |
| Starnestommy | *has | 04:13 |
| sebsebseb | imac: I guess, because Ubuntu is based on Debian one of the first Linux distros that ever existed | 04:13 |
| eaglestar83 | ok | 04:13 |
| neon | does lm-sensors work with intel pm965 notebook chipset | 04:13 |
| eaglestar83 | sorry | 04:13 |

| artint | ubuntu sux | 04:14 |
| tha_toadman | amenado: sorry but something has changed since 7 that's stalling my startup and it's bugging the hell out of me | 04:14 |
| cwillu | Mattevt, you have flashblock installed | 04:14 |
| bazhang | artint offtopic here thanks | 04:14 |
| zeno | Mattevt: remove the flashblock plugin | 04:14 |
| cwillu | Mattevt, this is actually a good thing :p | 04:14 |
| root_____ | Mattevt: do you have NoScript installed as a plugin, sometimes that does it? | 04:14 |
| tha_toadman | amenado: how do i check rc.d or init.d ? | 04:14 |
| zeno | Mattevt: although thats great, remember all those annoying flash adds? | 04:14 |
| sebsebseb | Imac: plus OpenSuse is the community distro of Novell's Suse Enterprise Linux, and well Novell is not liked that much anymore by a lot of people in the Linux community, because of a deal they made with Microsoft | 04:15 |

| tha_toadman | amenado: then i may post this one in the forums *think i'm still registered there* and will post this to see what's up | 04:15 |

| imac | VMware, yes | 04:16 |
| sebsebseb | hummmmmm VMware | 04:16 |
| root_____ | EcoBlue: what is the specific error message you get, probably you should try a 64-bit of ubuntu if it doesn't even boot | 04:16 |
| sebsebseb | so your on an XP host? | 04:16 |
| imac | imac | 04:16 |
| madmoomix | Anyone know why installing Ubuntu is changing how live-cds work? This should not be happening. | 04:16 |
| imac | XP computer is weak lol | 04:16 |
| amenado | tha_toadman-> i was not much help to you really, hopefully next time | 04:16 |
| artint | i was jokin | 04:16 |
| sebsebseb | imac: oh yeah imac so Mac OS X host? | 04:17 |
| eaglestar83 | ok i guess its one question a day here | 04:17 |
| eaglestar83 | thanks | 04:17 |
| imac | yeah | 04:17 |
| Shadow420 | I am a XP/Ubuntu user | 04:17 |
| cwillu | madmaxmad, ubuntu didn't even have a live-cd originally, it's not like it's something set in stone | 04:17 |
| tha_toadman | amenado: well you were the first to offer -- people like you make ubuntu what it is today -- cheers! | 04:17 |
| imac | I was thinking about duel booting the xp with linux, so i'm trying ubuntu first | 04:17 |
| sebsebseb | imac: well you can download already made Linux distros from the VMware site, for open souse and Ubuntu and so on. even other oprating systems. and then you can try them out, and find out which one you like the most | 04:17 |
| hydrogen | of course the performance in vmware is less than impressive | 04:17 |
| imac | i guess | 04:17 |
| hydrogen | and virtualbox is much cooler :) | 04:17 |
| imac | true | 04:17 |
| amenado | tha_toadman-> thank you for the kind words... | 04:17 |
| rich_freecomm | anyone have 8.04 and play Gweled? | 04:17 |

| Fezzler | How do I change my login screen resolution? | 04:18 |
| Shadow420 | imac then u are in luck ubuntu is very easy to use | 04:18 |

| patricknn | hey, i have a dell 4600 and i have a nvidia video card, with s-video out. whenever i try to use screens and graphics to change the screens, either it becomes a terrible resolution, or the screen size is too large on my lcd monitor, any ideas? | 04:18 |
| root_____ | rich_freecomm: I couldn't get Gweled to work on 8.04 | 04:18 |
| imac | but I tried ubuntu on windows with wubi and it didn't get driver support for my vid card and no internet either | 04:18 |
| sebsebseb | hydrogen: plus when I got it for WIndows recentlly it seemed I would have to build the open source one myself. so I went for the cloused one | 04:18 |
| rich_freecomm | root_____: I got it working...but it's in French | 04:19 |
| tha_toadman | amenado: i'm off to bed -- you'll have to look for my post in the forum - later! | 04:19 |
| rich_freecomm | root_____: which is ok....since I was so used to playing it..I knew what to hit | 04:19 |
| root_____ | rich_freecomm: I found a bug in that program, but there was no place on their website to submit it i think, or if there was i submitted it | 04:20 |

| IndyGunFreak | HappyHater: i'm sure there is, look at mouse preferences | 04:28 |
| mjbrooks | chris_420, uncomment blacklist snd-atiixp-modem in /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-modem | 04:28 |
| leftyfb | I can't seem to get a prompt for passphrase at boot which will then create the devicemapper virtual device in /dev/mapper to then be mounted as my /home. I have /etc/crypttab setup properly by uuid which I have veryified multiple times exists ... I then have my fstab mounting the /dev/mapper/blah device which like I said, doesn't get created until it's opened using the passphrase..... | 04:28 |

| ubottu | 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? | 04:30 |
| bazhang | leftyfb: you checked truecrypt? | 04:30 |
| AbstortedMinds | i wouldnt trust truecrypt, try geli | 04:31 |
| AbstortedMinds | geli is the best | 04:31 |
| Bodsda | !best | 04:31 |
| IndyGunFreak | !best | 04:31 |
| ubottu | Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task. It's up to you to choose, depending on your preferences, features you require, and other factors. Do NOT take polls in the channel. If you insist on getting people's opinions, ask BestBot in #ubuntu-bots. | 04:31 |
| leftyfb | bazhang: truecrypt doesn't create full linux filesystems, only containers which need to be mounted manually. You cannot mount truecrypt containers using grub | 04:31 |
| AbstortedMinds | i dont know if thats on ubuntu, but on freebsd geli is the ultimate option | 04:31 |

| IndyGunFreak | Unknown10369: my guess is, if you have to ask, you couldn't even exploit internet explorer, so you probably have a long way to go. | 04:47 |

| DSMatthews_ | Looking for up-to-date docs for connecting to WiFi with hidden SSID and WPA-PSK security, using usb wifi key which works fine if all security turned off on wifi router, Window$ boxes connecting OK, but not Ubuntu 8.04 :-( | 04:54 |
| chris_420 | hydrogen: it never does when you want it do lol.... | 04:54 |
| JoCo | IndyGunFreak, all right will do, thanks a lot indy! | 04:54 |
| IndyGunFreak | np | 04:54 |
| phoenix180 | wastrel, I don't know yet I have just been trying to re-install kubuntu again | 04:54 |
| phoenix180 | should I at least see if it will boot? | 04:54 |
| chris_420 | arbir one sec... i know how to but let me get the details haha | 04:54 |
| rich_freecomm | phoenix180: it took me 34 times to get Ubuntu working on my laptop...the good news is that...if you are persistant..it works out..and you'll be glad you were | 04:54 |
| IndyGunFreak | i installed kubuntu on my mother in laws machine, cuz i knew it was slower than windows. | 04:55 |
| arbir | chris_420: thanks for making the effort.... :-) | 04:55 |
| acidicbase | is there a fix for ati and ubuntu 8.0.4? | 04:55 |
| rich_freecomm | phoenix180: 3-4 times even..not 34 times..I would have def givin up by then | 04:55 |
| DSMatthews_ | It is a shame that WiFi with security is so flaky :-( | 04:55 |
| IndyGunFreak | acidicbase: what do you mean fix? | 04:55 |
| drivetrax | acidicbase, what ati card? | 04:55 |
| acidicbase | x800xl | 04:55 |
| IndyGunFreak | DSMatthews_: i use wpa w/o issue.. | 04:55 |
| acidicbase | gnome is slow as hell | 04:55 |
| chris_420 | arbir... when you load it... in the black area where it shows the time or the song and all that you should be able to see a d.... or D click that... | 04:55 |
| Mattevt | alright...one more time :)... | In "Monitor Resolution Settings", the "Clones Screens" box is checked. I un-check it, then click "Apply", but somehow it always re-checks it self. How can i fix this? | 04:55 |
| wastrel | DSMatthews_: hidden ssid is silly. turning that off might help . tho wifi with lunix is a bit of voodoo to me still. | 04:55 |
| acidicbase | was fine in 7.10 | 04:55 |
| IndyGunFreak | acidicbase: lol, you shoud put the pipe down.. :) | 04:55 |
| chris_420 | arbir... it would be on the left side... | 04:56 |
| DSMatthews_ | Indy...: hidden SSID? | 04:56 |
| bazhang | DSMatthews_: likely usb dongle and wifi is flaky wpa2 works fine here | 04:56 |
| IndyGunFreak | DSMatthews_: of coure | 04:56 |
| arbir | chris_420: let me check | 04:56 |
| acidicbase | no it is slow | 04:56 |
| IndyGunFreak | (of course | 04:56 |
| acidicbase | i can see it draw the windows | 04:56 |
| drivetrax | acidicbase, the driver 8.4 from the ATI site, must be direct rendering on | 04:56 |
| acidicbase | ok | 04:56 |
| tmr0 | I'm having a problem where ethernet stops working. Can be fixed by ifconfig eth0 down (then up). Marvell 88E8056 controller. | 04:56 |
| hydrogen | gnome slow???? blasphemy!!! It's written in C *and* has removed all unnecessary options, how could it possibly be slow! | 04:56 |
| arbir | yes when i click that i get a menu @ chris_420 | 04:56 |
| DSMatthews_ | Have two laptops, one has Intel chip set, similar pain to get it working. | 04:56 |
| drivetrax | acidicbase, - does yours has catalyst | 04:56 |
| phoenix180 | ubuntu refuses to install..it's strange. At 31% it tells me that there is something wrong with either my disk drive, hard drive, or I have a corrupted disk | 04:56 |
| acidicbase | no, I'm just using what came with 8.0.4 | 04:57 |
| chris_420 | crap hold up | 04:57 |
| drivetrax | uhm | 04:57 |
| rich_freecomm | (waiting for it) | 04:57 |
| bazhang | phoenix180: md5sum of the iso may fix that | 04:57 |
| IndyGunFreak | DSMatthews_: bottom line, its not Linux's fault, its a developer problem, if they would release their drivers to the community so they could be written for Linux, they would work fine, problem is, they wont, so we have to hack ways to use the windows driver. | 04:57 |
| drivetrax | acidicbase, either use the restricted drivers.. or get and install from ATI/AMD | 04:57 |
| acidicbase | yea i have restricted drivers, it says in use | 04:58 |
| IndyGunFreak | DSMatthews_: i use atheros and mad wifi, works perfect.. i hide my essid, have wpa, etc.., no probs | 04:58 |
| DSMatthews_ | Indy..: agreed | 04:58 |

| just | yupz | 04:58 |

| just | may 20 m | 04:58 |
| Cpudan80 | ehhhh how many feet is that? | 04:58 |
| arbir | chris_420: what do i do ? | 04:58 |
| drivetrax | acidicbase, are you familiar with xorg.conf? | 04:59 |
| just | but from near about 5m, i conneted well | 04:59 |
| IndyGunFreak | only issue i have on my laptop w/ Ubuntu, is battery life... | 04:59 |
| acidicbase | drivetrax: I will try to download the one from ati's site, what do you mean direct rendering? | 04:59 |
| acidicbase | drivetrax: yea | 04:59 |
| phoenix180 | ok if my PC loads, can I then attempt to just fix what is missing? | 04:59 |
| IndyGunFreak | i'm not really sure it would be better w/ Vista or XP | 04:59 |
| DSMatthews_ | Indy...: will dig around and see if I can sort it out, but some uptodate docs for the low level Wifi stuff on 8.04 would help, may be I'll have to write them. ;-) | 04:59 |
| Cpudan80 | just: Is there a wall or something in the way? | 04:59 |
| chris_420 | arbir... if you left click on the D which should be second from the bottom on that side it should close to double the size | 04:59 |
| egc | hi, does anybody here have an ati radeon 9800 with desktop effects enabled? | 04:59 |
| Cpudan80 | just: 20 meters is like 65 ft --- that's probably too far away | 05:00 |
| kazol | This is ridiculous, the first time I've tried upgrading (Dapper), it failed....I've asked *several* people about upgrading Gutsy->Heron and it was all good for them...I try upgrading, and I'm left with this blank screen. | 05:00 |
| chris_420 | arbir.... other then that it seems the only way to make it bigger other then changing the resolution of your screen or something | 05:00 |
| just | if I use windows xp it's connected well. | 05:00 |
| egc | mine works, but hesitates at times, and i wonder if thats normal | 05:00 |
| arbir | chris_420: the D is the second from the bottom | 05:00 |
| IndyGunFreak | DSMatthews_: beauty of it is, only thing stopping you, is you.. :) | 05:00 |
| kazol | I am seriously loosing faith in Ubuntu developers. | 05:00 |
| drivetrax | acidicbase, there is a caommand to see if the vid card is using tha rendering, but first try the install of that Huge linux driver from ati.. and see if it works for your card. For my 9600 AIW, it was no good. | 05:00 |
| DSMatthews_ | And the void.... | 05:00 |
| Cpudan80 | just: It's probably barely connected --- XP does weird things with wifi | 05:00 |
| DSMatthews_ | ... of knowledge I must traverse. ;-) | 05:00 |
| chris_420 | arbir yes... from the bottom of the black area... theres a V then above it is a D | 05:00 |
| acidicbase | drivetrax: will do | 05:00 |
| IndyGunFreak | lol, true. | 05:00 |
| rjune_ | I'm running Hardy, when I try to start firefox, it tells me that it's already running and I have to close it or reboot | 05:01 |
| IndyGunFreak | kazol: on eof these days people will learn, upgrades always suck, do clean installs, and you'll have no headaches | 05:01 |
| rjune_ | I rebooted, and it's still telling me that. what lockfile do I have to delete | 05:01 |
| arvind_khadri | ikonia, are you around | 05:01 |
| arbir | chris_420: i have already done that through the menu option, and still its super small | 05:01 |
| mjbrooks | kazol, perhaps there is something specific to how you do your setup that causes the breakage | 05:01 |
| chris_420 | < plays amy winehouse rehab.... | 05:01 |
| drivetrax | acidicbase, if the driver does not work remove it, disable restricted drivers, and that would mean removing fglrx | 05:01 |
| just | before I have use ubuntu fiesty itu working well. but now I change to hardy | 05:01 |
| arvind_khadri | bazhang, hello | 05:01 |
| DSMatthews_ | Thanks guys, will let you know if I discover anything worth sharing. Bye | 05:01 |

| arbir | chris_420: also , if i play audacious, all other programs are not able to output their sounds | 05:01 |
| kazol | IndyGunFreak: Maybe I should just install Gentoo. | 05:01 |
| bazhang | arvind_khadri: hi | 05:01 |
| drivetrax | egc, I fink | 05:02 |
| chris_420 | arbir yeah i think that has to do with the xmms/winamp heritage haha | 05:02 |
| IndyGunFreak | kazol: lmao, yeah.. there's a problem-free distro..lol | 05:02 |
| arvind_khadri | bazhang, issue with the resolution | 05:02 |

| HardyOne | rjune_: type ps aux | grep firefox and find the PID usualy 5 numbers and then type kill PID ( replace with the numbers ) | 05:02 |
| bazhang | arvind_khadri: what card and what drivers how installed | 05:02 |
| rjune_ | HardyOne: I rebooted. | 05:02 |
| momelod | i upgraded to hardy, and now i cannot use sudo | 05:02 |
| tbielawa | rjune_: some time firefox won't shut down cleanly. try running `killall -9 firefox` in a terminal | 05:02 |
| arbir | chris_420: is there no way out of that audacious, hogging the sound device ? | 05:02 |
| chris_420 | arbir i think thats relatively normal.... mine does the same.... but i always turn off the sounds in most of my programms from the get go lol | 05:02 |
| kazol | bazhang: Well I wasted all this time configuring this desktop, now I need to reinstall all over. | 05:02 |
| arvind_khadri | bazhang, nvidia 7300 gt restricted drivers no envy | 05:02 |
| rjune_ | tbielawa: again, I rebooted. this is still hapening. | 05:02 |
| kazol | bazhang: I'm sick of Ubuntu right now. | 05:02 |
| drivetrax | oh my | 05:02 |
| chris_420 | arbir im not to sure about that hold on one sec | 05:02 |
| egc | is the ati proprietary driver available in the repo the same as whats available from the ati site?? | 05:02 |
| bazhang | kazol: best to take a break then | 05:03 |
| kazol | bazhang: The same thing happened TWICE! On *different* hardware. | 05:03 |
| hydrogen | tbielawa: sending -SKILL is a bit drastic in most cases | 05:03 |

| Cpudan80 | oopps | 05:03 |
| arbir | chris_420: suppose if i need to play my youtube video, then i pause my song, and see my video. but audacious, just sucks away all the audio. | 05:03 |
| kazol | mjbrooks: I'm not aware of anything specific. | 05:03 |
| rjune_ | yeah, TERM works fine usually. | 05:03 |
| bazhang | kazol feisty did not work for me--> but this should be in #ubuntu-offtopic | 05:03 |
| momelod | egc, use envy to install your ati drivers.. | 05:03 |
| arvind_khadri | bazhang, i have been reconfiguring X a 100 times nothing seems to work | 05:03 |
| Cpudan80 | its possible there was some minor change to the driver - I really dont know :-/ | 05:03 |
| drivetrax | bazhang, is Hardy preconfigured.. some modules for some pc | 05:03 |
| mjbrooks | kazol, if you have your /home on a seperate partition, or backup and restore you entire /home directory you won't need to reconfig your desktop | 05:03 |
| tbielawa | hydrogen:, rjune_ We use this script in my office: http://csee.wvu.edu/~tbielawa/fixMozilla | 05:03 |
| bazhang | arvind_khadri: 7300? works fine here | 05:03 |
| bazhang | arvind_khadri: PM? | 05:04 |
| kazol | mjbrooks: I'll still lose some system settings and installed programs. | 05:04 |
| chris_420 | arbir it seems to be the case | 05:04 |
| arvind_khadri | bazhang, it used to work with 7.10 not here...compiz doesnt work with out the drivers | 05:04 |
| hydrogen | tbielawa: thats a pretty huge amount of code to replace a one line entry | 05:04 |
| Crito | I installed ubuntu on a usb external drive. when I boot up grub says" rror 2" | 05:04 |
| bazhang | drivetrax: you mean kernle modules? | 05:04 |
| arbir | chris_420: how is it, that such a big issue has been overlooked ? | 05:04 |
| arvind_khadri | bazhang, i reconfigured my X and all this happend | 05:04 |
| brak014 | can anyone help me, for some reason i dont have any audio from music video or web browser | 05:04 |
| rjune_ | tbielawa: I wasn't removing .parentlock. thank you | 05:04 |
| chris_420 | unless theres a way to run multiple sessions ot the audio driver | 05:04 |
| tbielawa | hydrogen: it covers allllll the bases and you only run one line ;) | 05:04 |
| arvind_khadri | bazhang, can i get back my old X?? | 05:04 |
| tbielawa | rjune_: you're welcome! | 05:04 |
| arbir | chris_420: Rythmbox is choppy when i minimise and maximise windows | 05:05 |

| Crito | is there some sort of "guide" on installing+booting from USB drives? | 05:05 |
| chris_420 | arbir im not sure.... but im thinking it might be a positive... | 05:05 |
| k20a | i can set my display right with displayconfig but then on restart it goes back to the max settings what should i do? | 05:05 |
| arbir | chris_420: so, i need a good music player which is light weight | 05:05 |
| chris_420 | arbir... rhythmbox only has one thing going for it.... the ease of adding many files at the same time haha | 05:05 |
| drivetrax | bazhang, yes.. are some of them pre-configured .. I see folks here saying repeatative things.. like the hang at the login.. like this video driver issue .. etc | 05:05 |
| hydrogen | arbir: mpg321! | 05:05 |
| arbir | chris_420: rythmbox also helps me copy files from my ipod and other ipods. | 05:05 |
| Ded_Ryzing | are there any screencasting apps that actually work with hardy and nvidia drivers? | 05:06 |
| chris_420 | arbir that might help but i know i had the same prob with xmms... | 05:06 |
| arbir | hydrogen: let me check | 05:06 |
| Mattevt | I have Ubuntu installed on a 15 gig partition. I save all my files to the partition that windows is on (125 gig). Is there anything wrong with this, or should I resize the partitions and move everything to the Ubuntu-side. | 05:06 |
| bazhang | drivetrax: well there are a *few* bugs to be worked out with Hardy atm; the perils of early adoption :) | 05:06 |
| drivetrax | Ded_Ryzing, screencasting? whas that? | 05:06 |
| Crito | any help please? | 05:06 |
| chris_420 | < has no mp3 player other then my cd player so thats not an issue for me haha | 05:06 |
| Ded_Ryzing | desktop vid recording | 05:06 |
| skarface | Mattevt: there's nothing wrong with that if you're still using windows | 05:06 |
| drivetrax | bazhang, -- I'm seeing that.. | 05:06 |
| larson9999 | yeah, ubuntu has had a locking up issue for a long time now. don't have it with any other distro :( | 05:06 |
| hydrogen | bazhang: shouldn't perils of early adoption go away by the time its released...? | 05:06 |
| arbir | chris_420: also, audacious is not showing those popups from the system tray when song changes | 05:06 |
| just | so fast here | 05:07 |
| drivetrax | Ded_Ryzing, yes, there is that for linux | 05:07 |
| chris_420 | arbir you have that plugin initialized? | 05:07 |
| just | amazing | 05:07 |
| arbir | yeah its on the system tray @ chris_420 | 05:07 |
| chris_420 | arbir what version ubuntu you running? | 05:07 |
| Netham45 | there's a program that lets me install Ubuntu from an XP install, can someone tell me what it's named? | 05:07 |
| arbir | 8.x @ chris_420 | 05:07 |
| bazhang | hydrogen: hard to do with 6mos release cycle though | 05:07 |
| Ded_Ryzing | For Ubuntu 8.04...have tried Istanbul and xvidcap (and others) and none seem to work | 05:07 |
| Psyco_Chipmunkk | Hey guys | 05:08 |
| chris_420 | arbir same here i just upgraded and so far knock on wood im having little problem with it haha | 05:08 |
| bazhang | Netham45: wubi? | 05:08 |
| phoenix180 | Netham45 do you mean Wubi? | 05:08 |
| Psyco_Chipmunkk | I have a few problems with my new instalation of ubuntu hardy haron | 05:08 |
| drivetrax | Ded_Ryzing, load up your add/remove programs and look in Sound&Video | 05:08 |
| JoCo | Psyco_Chipmunkk, what would they be? | 05:08 |
| hydrogen | bazhang: which suggests that a six month release cycle is a bad idea | 05:08 |
| arbir | chris_420: so far, 8.x has been choppy on my laptop.. | 05:08 |
| wastrel | i love the 6mo cycle | 05:08 |
| danbhfive | hydrogen: muahahaha, all of linux is early adoption! the joke is on you! | 05:08 |
| arbir | dont know if thats the case with other people as well | 05:08 |
| Psyco_Chipmunkk | first of all, for some reason, the sound on the applications of my computer wil go off and on, but programs like firefox with always have sound | 05:09 |
| Psyco_Chipmunkk | But now VLC | 05:09 |
| Fezzler | For some reason, after upgrading to Hardy, my login screen resolution is too low 800x600. How do i fix? | 05:09 |
| drivetrax | Avidemux | 05:09 |
| Mattevt | skarface: ok thanks, I just wanted to be sure i wasn't hurting anything, by storing files in windows and accessing them through ubuntu. I just wanted to try ubuntu, then when I decided I liked it better, I started doing all my work in ubuntu and just saving it in vista's space. | 05:09 |
| hydrogen | bazhang: reguardless of what our favorite diety Mr. Shuttleworth likes to preach | 05:09 |

| Psyco_Chipmunkk | I thought ubuntu was sooo stable? | 05:10 |
| arbir | chris_420: my display is very bright.. i use the Nvidia X server settings to get the gamma corection going.. | 05:10 |
| chris_420 | arbir come to think of it i have never had to programs make sound at the same time... sometimes it even through an error or a warning... like hey your audio stuff is already busy | 05:10 |
| darkcrab | I noticed that adobe.com is only offering rpm files now, so what are my choices for flash and what is the best? | 05:11 |
| drivetrax | Kino | 05:11 |
| arbir | chris_420: but each time, i start up, my display its super bright.. and i need to reset it through that ndivia control panel | 05:11 |
| chris_420 | arbir ahhh | 05:11 |
| arbir | Psyco_Chipmunkk: why do u think ubuntu is not stable ? | 05:11 |
| skarface | !flash | 05:11 |

| IndyGunFreak | Psyco_Chipmunkk: it is stable... its probably a user malfunction | 05:11 |
| ubottu | darkcrab: please see above | 05:11 |
| tbielawa | brak014: it sounds like you don't have a sound mixer running, check over your audio settings and see if "enable software eound mixing" is checked ont he second page | 05:11 |
| el_ja|out | can anybody help? | 05:11 |
| arbir | chris_420: why do you say aah ? | 05:12 |
| chris_420 | arbir i have a couple programs i have to go through that with... im thinking its mostly do to linux being meant to have long uptimes | 05:12 |

| Psyco_Chipmunkk | IndyGunFreak: so its unstable? | 05:12 |
| drivetrax | Pitivi - NLE | 05:12 |
| IndyGunFreak | Psyco_Chipmunkk: no, i think you're unstable | 05:12 |
| tbielawa | brak014: did you see my message up above? | 05:12 |
| Psyco_Chipmunkk | Or, if it is stable, how do i fix this little problem? | 05:12 |
| el_ja|out | and everything goes ok, but when i try to boot it shows inconsistent filesystem structure | 05:12 |
| Psyco_Chipmunkk | IndyGunFreak: i'm fine | 05:13 |

| tbielawa | Psyco_Chipmunkk: solar flares | 05:15 |
| Fezzler | Any idea why my login screen resolution would be different from GNOME? It's too low and I don't know how to adjust it. | 05:15 |
| chris_420 | netham with what? ralink chipsets? | 05:15 |
| bazhang | Psyco_Chipmunkk: there is an outstanding bug with that; best to play one source of sound for now--esp youtube and mp3 | 05:15 |
| drivetrax | Hey, for those using FireFox.. there is.. Seamonkey | 05:15 |
| strobedream | for some odd reason when I leave my computer on screensaver for a while... like a weekend I have to reboot it. | 05:15 |
| RyanPrior | drivetrax: Seamonkey is much more bloated than Firefox is, unfortunately. | 05:15 |
| chris_420 | netham... it seems to be pretty plug and play for me lol.... well except for the whole broken antenna thing lol | 05:15 |
| Psyco_Chipmunkk | tbielawa what? | 05:15 |
| drivetrax | ry yeah, but I like e-mail right there built-in, and HTML editor.. oooohhhh yeah | 05:16 |
| chris_420 | arbir.... did i answer all your questions? i have a feeling that i missed something | 05:16 |
| ere4si | strobedream: the hard disks prob get turned off with a bios setting | 05:16 |
| el_ja|out | so nothing? | 05:16 |
| Psyco_Chipmunkk | bazhang: theres no fix? | 05:16 |
| tbielawa | Psyco_Chipmunkk: I was just messing around | 05:16 |
| Netham45 | chris_420, I've had many kernel panics as the results of ralink chipsets | 05:16 |
| bazhang | Bodsda: got to head out; will try to fix your problem when I get back | 05:16 |
| strobedream | ere4si: cool thanks I'll look into that. | 05:16 |
| adub | http://paste.ubuntu.com/9375/ <---- help help make error cant figure this one out | 05:16 |
| drivetrax | Ryan52, -- besides... Mozzy gold is what I started with | 05:16 |
| bazhang | Psyco_Chipmunkk: that bug is being worked on yes | 05:16 |
| bazhang | Psyco_Chipmunkk: you can read the bug reports and see if there are any workarounds in the meantime | 05:17 |
| chris_420 | netham45 ouch.... never had the kernel spaz on me yet... but then again im noly into linux about a year( as a total) | 05:17 |
| chris_420 | so i got a while lol | 05:17 |
| Psyco_Chipmunkk | bazhang: so its for everyone? when is it expected to be fixed? | 05:17 |
| drivetrax | Opera.. has gotten very good.. | 05:17 |
| Netham45 | heh, I had some cheapo chipset, it crashedalot. | 05:17 |
| Netham45 | Opera is very good. :D | 05:17 |
| brak014 | i unchecked the box and it worked fine but i cant do system sounds, that works by me :D | 05:17 |
| mjbrooks | el_ja|out, try to not use line breaks as punctuation, it's tough to follow what you are saying | 05:18 |
| sam_ | when i install a program in synaptic why doesnt it show up in my applications list | 05:18 |
| tbielawa | adub: you know there is a package for that, you shouldn't need to compile it | 05:18 |
| el_ja|out | ok, let me write it again | 05:18 |
| Bodsda | bazhang: u back or have u left? | 05:18 |
| drivetrax | I think Flash-9 might be an issue under FF2, and mebe FF3 will fix0r that.. dunno | 05:18 |
| wastrel | sam_: not all programs add an entry in the menu | 05:18 |
| ere4si | sam_: some do - some don't - depends how they're written | 05:18 |
| bazhang | Psyco_Chipmunkk: not for everyone--> the fix date no idea best to watch the bug report on that or just listen to one sound source--you might try switching to alsa instead of autodetect as well | 05:18 |
| chris_420 | netham45 and also have only dealt with like 3-4 versions of ubuntu... as well as knoppix was my first live cd haha | 05:18 |

| Bodsda | bazhang: ok, cya dude | 05:19 |

| el_ja|out | I installed ubuntu using wubi in one of my HD that has some space left. So everything goes ok, it reboots then install ubuntu, then reboots again. Grub comes out and when I choose to boot ubuntu (normal and safe mode) it shows "Error 16: inconsistent file structure". Tried 64 and 32 bit version and both the same problem | 05:20 |
| [Lowkey] | Can someone please help me install the driver for the spca5xx chipset? I need it for my webcam. | 05:20 |
| tbielawa | adub: it's packaged in hardy, you aren't running hardy... are you? | 05:20 |
| DeNT_ | i need help installling drivers on tx2000z | 05:21 |
| adub | no | 05:21 |
| chris_420 | netham45: i think thats the first ubuntu install i did from cd the first adventure from livecd's lol | 05:21 |
| adub | i can download the deb tho cant i? | 05:21 |
| wastrel | [Lowkey]: where are you stuck | 05:21 |
| [Lowkey] | I don't even know where to get it :( | 05:21 |
| mjbrooks | el_ja|out, I'm not familiar with wubi installs... are you installing it on an NTFS partition or are you reformatting the drive that has space? | 05:21 |
| `KoRn | hi anyone, i just installed postgresql how do i start using it? | 05:21 |
| Mattevt | sorry...another silly question: I'm used to winrar and the whole .exe deal. I extracted a tar.gz file to the desktop, what am I looking for to install this? | 05:21 |
| tbielawa | adub you can try, here's the url: http://packages.ubuntu.com/hardy/p2kmoto | 05:21 |
| wastrel | [Lowkey]: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Spca5xx | 05:22 |
| chris_420 | netham45: i remeber when you used to be able to reliably upgrade distros from the commandline haha | 05:22 |
| ere4si | Mattevt: just double click it | 05:22 |
| [Lowkey] | :D Thank you wastrel | 05:22 |
| adub | how would i download the deb | 05:22 |
| Psyco_Chipmunkk | ok, a update on my problem... When i try to play like a song in rythembox, nothing work's now as it did yesterday. I click a song and the song progress bar doesent even move | 05:22 |
| chris_420 | now its recommended not to hahaaaaaaaaaa | 05:22 |
| el_ja|out | I'm not reformatting, because that drive has some folder from windows and it has like 60gb left, so the wubi installer lets me choose that drive to make a partition. I think its doing another ntfs, I'm not sure. | 05:22 |
| Mattevt | double click what, ere4si? It's a folder with a bunch of files. I just want to know which does which | 05:23 |
| tbielawa | adub: http://packages.ubuntu.com/hardy/i386/p2kmoto/download | 05:23 |
| mjbrooks | el_ja|out, I think you need to do a scandisk in windows on that drive | 05:23 |
| adam7 | Mattevt, are you trying to install something? | 05:23 |
| darkcrab | fyi, just in case anyone does know, wubi is on for trials. | 05:23 |
| drivetrax | el_ja|out, to actually mount .. I believe you use LVM | 05:23 |
| ere4si | Mattevt: is there a readme file? | 05:23 |
| darkcrab | doesnt | 05:23 |
| Mattevt | yes adam7 | 05:23 |
| darkcrab | only | 05:24 |
| Mattevt | i'm looking now | 05:24 |
| el_ja|out | mjbrooks ok I'll try | 05:24 |
| thanhlong | chào | 05:24 |
| Mattevt | yes there's a readme, but it didn't help | 05:24 |
| el_ja|out | drivetrax I don't know how to use lvm | 05:24 |
| adam7 | Mattevt, you probably want to use the package manage (Synaptic) found in System -> Administration -> Package Manager to install things, it is *far* easier :) | 05:24 |
| thanhlong | hi | 05:24 |
| Mattevt | oh, thanks adam7. I'll try that. | 05:24 |
| mjbrooks | el_ja|out, an incositent filesystem on an NTFS partition means windows didn't let it go cleanly | 05:24 |
| No1CaNTeL | hey guys, I was here before asking for some help with setting up my webcam, I have tried the the options from ubottu but none of them are working :( my cam should be supported but when I try the "make" commands of the packages selected I get errors. I think I might of messed up the settings by now from trying all of the options available. | 05:24 |
| `KoRn | ubuntu-women | 05:24 |
| No1CaNTeL | any help getting this working would be appreciated :D | 05:25 |
| darkcrab | do you have to run maintenance scripts in ubuntu | 05:25 |
| adub | dependancy not satisfied libc6 | 05:25 |
| wastrel | No1CaNTeL: you need the "build-essential" package to run "make" | 05:25 |
| strobedream | How do I get all the man pages for things like time.h on my machine? | 05:25 |
| wastrel | strobedream: manpages-dev | 05:26 |
| el_ja|out | mjbrooks I'm going to, and tell you what happens after | 05:26 |
| No1CaNTeL | make seems to work but it fails while processing | 05:26 |
| strobedream | wastrel: thanks | 05:26 |
| No1CaNTeL | where do I find build essentials? | 05:26 |
| Mattevt | whoa, adam7, thanks. | 05:26 |
| mjbrooks | No1CaNTeL, sudo apt-get install build-essential | 05:26 |
| No1CaNTeL | yeah, it was already installed | 05:27 |
| strobedream | wastrel: ok so I did that, but I still get no manpage. Is there a way I can rebuild them? | 05:27 |
| drivetrax | Wubi - Can I move my virtual disk file to a dedicated partition? (YES) use LVPM. | 05:27 |
| mjbrooks | No1CaNTeL, what do the errors during make say? | 05:27 |
| wastrel | strobedream: man time.h ? | 05:27 |
| adam7 | Mattevt, that is probably the most different thing about Ubuntu then Windows - but it allows you to easily install any software, or to upgrade the entire system at once :) | 05:27 |
| No1CaNTeL | when I run the commands from the help page I was suggested to use, the processes while running make seem to fail | 05:27 |
| thanhlong | chane group | 05:27 |
| No1CaNTeL | mj, one sec | 05:28 |
| wastrel | strobedream: try man 2 time | 05:28 |
| strobedream | wastrel: it says no manual entry. Even though manpages-dev is up to date. | 05:28 |
| strobedream | ahh | 05:28 |
| strobedream | ok | 05:28 |
| strobedream | wastrel: that got me something | 05:28 |

| prettyricky | ok ty | 05:38 |
| hydrogen | and then right click on the process | 05:38 |
| studentsae | prettyricky: then kill the pids for it | 05:38 |

| No1CaNTeL | wastrel: is edit > keyboard shortcuts in the terminal? | 05:41 |
| wastrel | yeah | 05:41 |
| hydrogen | studentsae: it's already been pointed out at least once tonight that kill -9 is a *really bad* first resort | 05:41 |
| solrize | is hardy supposed to support the intel 3945ABG wifi card without needing to download drivers? | 05:41 |
| prettyricky | studentsae---------you mean type kill -9 in terminal right? | 05:42 |
| No1CaNTeL | mjbrooks: ty, I will look this over tonight, and if it is still a prob in the morn I will return the cam and grab a different one | 05:42 |
| surplusxmas | Should I not use encrypted LVM unless I really need to? | 05:42 |
| studentsae | hydrogen: ever work with java its sometimes the only resort. | 05:42 |
| Daisuke_Ido | studentsae: sometimes, that doesn't mean you should resort to it first thing | 05:42 |
| mjbrooks | solrize, mine works fine | 05:43 |
| solrize | hmm | 05:43 |
| studentsae | Daisuke_Ido: true..not for every issue. but as a first resort depends on the issue. | 05:43 |
| kevineamigh | Hey does anyone know how to get sound from everything to come through my usb headset. I am using Ubuntu 8.04 Hardy | 05:43 |
| hydrogen | studentsae: No idea what java has to do with this | 05:44 |
| hydrogen | studentsae: nothing, based on the previous discussion | 05:44 |
| hydrogen | unless of course, you just want to provide evidence that java is a really bad langauge | 05:44 |
| hydrogen | but that soff topic | 05:44 |
| hydrogen | ! | 05:44 |
| studentsae | hydrogen: alot...if you have a runaway thread. | 05:44 |

| === tbielawa_ is now known as tbielawa_smkbrk | ||
| studentsae | hydrogen: then its poor development programming that can cause nasty things to happen to a linux box..sometimes the only resort is to kill -9 ...and until developer fixes it..it is then the first and only resort. | 05:45 |
| solrize | i notice several bugs in the isntall, i wonder if there will be a bugfix release? | 05:45 |
| mjbrooks | solrize, does it have a switch to turn it on and off? | 05:45 |
| arooni-mobile | when i'm connected to a wireless router... how can i get the IP address of the router (to login/administrate). i'm on ubuntu gutsy. | 05:45 |
| Daisuke_Ido | hydrogen: like forcing that bad code to be preloaded on almost every pc :) | 05:45 |
| solrize | the wifi? yes, it is turned on | 05:45 |
| prettyricky | Thanks a lot guys! | 05:45 |
| solrize | at least it says it's in the on position | 05:45 |
| studentsae | Daisuke_Ido: didnt say i wrote it...:) | 05:45 |
| solrize | lemme try it in the other position | 05:45 |
| hydrogen | studentsae: even if you need to kill -9 it, that doesn't mean its the first thing you do | 05:46 |
| mjbrooks | solrize, lol i always get mine backwards | 05:46 |
| surplusxmas | Will encrypted LVM considerably slow down my read/write? Are there any other drawbacks? | 05:46 |
| hydrogen | you fall back to it iff kill -15 (or something in between) doesn't work | 05:46 |

| prettyricky | By the way is anyone using NES emulator if so, how in the world do you use the controls.. Do you need a usb controller? | 05:46 |
| mjbrooks | surplusxmas, the slowdown is slight for normal use | 05:46 |
| wastrel | or route | 05:47 |
| surplusxmas | mjbrooks: Thank you. Can you think of any reason not to use it? | 05:47 |
| hydrogen | studentsae: right, if you know from *past experience* that you need to kill -9 something, then you can kill -9 that same something again | 05:47 |
| hydrogen | that does not make it in any way, shape, or form, the first resort if a process is hanging | 05:47 |
| surplusxmas | mjbrooks: This will be for an average use desktop PC. | 05:47 |
| kevineamigh | I've been trying for days to get sound to come out of my usb headset for everything, but the login and logout sound still doesn't which isn't important, but it's part of a bigger problem because the game enemy territory also does not send sound through my headset only my speakers which plug into the computer with a analog plug | 05:47 |

| mjbrooks | surplusxmas, kinda silly on a desktop PC, definately recommended on a laptop | 05:48 |
| studentsae | hydrogen: depends on the sitch. | 05:48 |
| hydrogen | studentsae: no, it doesn't. | 05:48 |
| hydrogen | studentsae: you are wrong in this case | 05:48 |
| surplusxmas | mjbrooks: Yes, true. I've considered that before, but never seriously until now. | 05:48 |

| prettyricky | guys I did a ctrl alt del... that worked, | 05:49 |
| hydrogen | if process foo requires you to kill -9 it every time it hangs | 05:49 |
| ere4si | kevineamigh: does the headset show up in lsusb ? | 05:49 |
| hydrogen | that doesn't mean when process bar hangs, you kill -9 it immediatly | 05:49 |
| prettyricky | newbie here so just trying to learn, thanks for all your help | 05:49 |
| * Firefishe headset does show up in lsusb | 05:49 | |
| studentsae | hydrogen: well im here to make technical arguments so lets get back on topic...thanks for the 2 cents though. | 05:50 |
| solrize | bah, laptop had gone into suspend mode and when i hit a key to come out of suspend it started dumping squashfs error messages to the screen and i had to power cycle it] | 05:50 |
| Firefishe | but I don't have sound. the volume switch on the cord seems to work though. | 05:50 |
| hydrogen | studentsae: thats not a technical arguement | 05:50 |
| kevineamigh | yes my headset does show up | 05:50 |
| solrize | i'm getting pretty close to saying "hardy doesn't work" | 05:50 |
| hydrogen | studentsae: you've pretty much said "I'm wrong, but rather than conceeding that I'm wrong I'm going to try and bring up the fact that this is off topic" | 05:50 |

| kevineamigh | yeah the default gateway and the subnet mask should match the current settings. Also if you have a router then you'll have to most likely set up a virtual server on the website for your router. Like for example my IP ends in .1 but my static ip is .137 so I had to go on the website for my router and set up a virtual server so it would recognize my static ip | 06:30 |

There are many things I like about 8.04, but is there any way that I can set alsa as the default for sound instead of pulse audio | 07:09 |
| k20a | yes any webcam on the net that is flash based it fails | 07:09 |
| patifa | ebaad: one sec | 07:09 |
| zcat[1] | I don't know any flash based webcams on the net | 07:09 |
| ebaad | i tried vi and it also opened the file with read only permission | 07:09 |
| patifa | read only? | 07:10 |
| patifa | really? | 07:10 |
| Bodsda | kevineamigh: system-->pref-->sound | 07:10 |
| navetz | can anyone here help me get dual screen extended mode working | 07:10 |
| patifa | k well do you know the name of your computer, ebaad? | 07:10 |
| Bodsda | ebaad: sudo gedit /path/to/file | 07:10 |
| ebaad | yes | 07:10 |
| zcat[1] | I was watching our axis webcams a few days ago, no issue at all, but I din't think they use flash | 07:10 |
| k20a | zcat[1] ifriends.. | 07:10 |
| patifa | Bodsda: sudo is busted for ebaad, I told you this before | 07:10 |
| n2diy | !twinview | navetz | 07:10 |
| ubottu | navetz: xinerama is an extension to !X to use two or more physical displays as one large virtual display. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/XineramaHowTo - See also !DualHead | 07:10 |
| Lardarse | patifa: might be worth having a look at ls -l /etc/hosts ? | 07:11 |
| patifa | yeah | 07:11 |
| ebaad | it is owned by root | 07:11 |
| Lardarse | it's the 10 characters on the left that i'm interested | 07:11 |
| ebaad | and if i try anything vi, gedit, nedit or nano it only opens file in readonly state | 07:11 |
| navetz | n2diy: i am trying to use xinerama because I have inted card. I have followed the steps but I get two blank screens when I try rebooting X | 07:11 |
| === adnans_ is now known as adnans | ||
| patifa | anyways, ebaad, just to confirm, do you know the name of your computer? Not sure if your yes answer was to me or Bodsda. | 07:12 |
| Bodsda | patifa: ahh,.,. i forget quickly sorry dude, will keep the trap shut | 07:12 |
| k20a | man even swiftweasel 32 bit didn't work | 07:12 |
| Lardarse | ebaad: looks something like -rw-r--r-- | 07:12 |
| patifa | (It should be -rw-r--r--) | 07:12 |
| Rabiddog | damn ubuntu and its dmraid bugs | 07:12 |
| kevineamigh | Bodsda: I already changed all of the preferences in sound to alsa, and most things work through my headset just fine now, however there must be another setting because the sounds the system makes when it logs in and out still only come through the speakers and also enemy territory only sends sound through the speakers | 07:12 |
| ebaad | yes i know the name and when I list the contents of the hosts file there was the workgroup added to the name | 07:12 |
| ebaad | may be that is why it cannot recognize the name | 07:13 |
| n2diy | navetz: hmm, just guessing, but try booting with the nodma, nopci, etc... options? | 07:13 |
| ebaad | or resolve the name | 07:13 |
| patifa | ebaad: sounds like it | 07:13 |
| ebaad | so is there a way besied rebooting | 07:13 |
| ebaad | besides | 07:13 |
| zcat[1] | wow, what a shitty site. | 07:13 |
| Bodsda | kevineamigh: for ET sound prefs will be ingame settings prob -- not sure bout system sound sorry | 07:13 |
| n2diy | navetz: restart gdm? | 07:14 |
| darkcrab | im having trouble with my trashcan, when I click empty the icon doesnt change or when I put a file in the trash, the icon doesnt change, until later, its like delayed. anybody heard of that? | 07:14 |
| === Kwitschibo_ is now known as Kwitschibo | ||
| navetz | n2diy: what is nodma and nopci? | 07:14 |
| navetz | n2diy: i have rebooting | 07:14 |
| Bodsda | navetz: they are boot parameters/options | 07:14 |
| patifa | ok ebaad, looking at the bug reports and whatnot | 07:14 |
| navetz | n2diy: also I am using KDE, I dunno if that matters. | 07:14 |
| n2diy | navetz: nodma is no direct memory access, I forget what no pci is? | 07:14 |
| AbstortedMinds | my mouse wont work if any key is being held down, except shift, tab and a cntl and a few others, does anyone know of a fix? google has failed me | 07:15 |
| patifa | 'hostname the-right-hostname' should fix things | 07:15 |
| navetz | n2diy: oh ok, well I tried it with the default settings in that guide | 07:15 |
| Gokee2 | How do i get kde4? I installed kde4 but still have a lot of kde3.5.x things around like konqueror. I also don`t think anyhting has changed with my taskbar. | 07:15 |
| n2diy | navetz: yes that would matter, you have to restarte kde instead of gdm. | 07:15 |
| Bodsda | lol | 07:15 |
| darkcrab | you didnt uninstall kde 3.5 first did you gokee | 07:15 |
| vlad | hey ppl can somebody help me i need a ftp client with ssh or tsl encryption im a linux noob | 07:16 |
| Gokee2 | No... Do I need to? I was hoping to have the old apps around in case I wanted them for anything.... | 07:16 |
| navetz | n2diy: rebooting my computer restarts kdm right? | 07:16 |
| wastrel | vlad: gftp should work | 07:16 |
| darkcrab | if you want kde 3.5 to be gone, yes. | 07:16 |
| navetz | n2diy: also do I restart faster by just doing /etc/init.d/kdm restart ? | 07:16 |
| kevineamigh | Bodsda: unfortunately et doesn't have a setting in game. Some other programs I had a issue with before did have a setting in the program, but not et. Also, since the system sounds don't work then there has to be another sound related issue with 8.04 that is causing the problem. I know I read they changed from alsa to pulse audio for 8.04, but I didn't think they would make it harder to use headsets in the new version then | 07:16 |
| kevineamigh | it was in the old one. It just is kind of studpid | 07:16 |
| n2diy | navetz: you might find better answers in #kubuntu, they play with kde? | 07:16 |
| Gokee2 | Hmm "Package kde is not installed" | 07:16 |
| vlad | wastrel: hey man i just installed gftp but it says i got not ssl activated or smth can u help me? | 07:16 |
| navetz | n2diy: ah ok, I have asked there as well but no respone | 07:17 |
| ebaad | its ok I will try the reboot in the secure mode thing and see if it fixes the issue | 07:17 |
| wastrel | vlad: i don't use it sorry. i use sftp on the command line | 07:17 |
| ebaad | thanks for the help | 07:17 |
| Gokee2 | So what package sould I remove for kde 3.5? | 07:17 |
| ebaad | and the time | 07:17 |
| ethan961 | !kde | Gokee2 | 07:17 |
| ubottu | Gokee2: KDE (http://kde.org) is the !desktop environment used natively in !Kubuntu. To install from Ubuntu: « sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop », or see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/InstallingKDE . Latest KDE version is 3.5.8 for Gutsy and Feisty, 3.5.6 for Edgy, and 3.5.5 for Dapper. See http://kubuntu.org for more information. | 07:17 |
| patifa | ebaad: You'll need to make the edits anyways in the recovery console | 07:17 |
| vlad | thx man | 07:17 |
| maek | test | 07:17 |
| darkcrab | im having trouble with my trashcan, when I click empty the icon doesnt change or when I put a file in the trash, the icon doesnt change, until later, its like delayed. anybody heard of that? | 07:17 |
| stdin | Gokee2: when you install kde4 you have to choose to login to it, there'll be another entry in the login manager | 07:17 |
| kevineamigh | I even tried to uninstall pulse audio but it I do it says that it has to uninstall the ubuntu desktop | 07:17 |
| ebaad | yes i will try that way | 07:17 |
| Bodsda | AbstortedMinds: a quick google was all thats needed -- http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=417089 | 07:17 |
| patifa | ebaad: Did the hostname command not work? | 07:17 |
| Bodsda | kevineamigh: sorry not sure what to suggest | 07:18 |
| n2diy | navetz: Ok, when the Xwindow splash screen comes up for you to log in, is there an options menu to select from? | 07:18 |
| ebaad | it cannot make edits in the hosts file only in hostname file | 07:18 |
| Gokee2 | stdin, I told it to use kdm-4 as the default splash screen | 07:18 |
| patifa | odd | 07:18 |
| ebaad | no problem | 07:18 |
| ebaad | thnx anyway | 07:18 |
| patifa | well try the recovery console, then. Shouldn't be any wierd write permissions there | 07:18 |
| ebaad | see you soon | 07:18 |
| Bodsda | patifa: can u not use chowner or chmod to give write access to the file?@ | 07:18 |
| stdin | Gokee2: who told you that? it doesn't matter which you use, kdm/kdm-kde4/gdm | 07:18 |
| navetz | n2diy: yes, the probelm is when I configure my xorg to use dual screen, I don't get to a splash screen | 07:19 |
| n2diy | navetz: hmmm, sorry, I'm lost, I don't run dual screens. | 07:20 |
| navetz | n2diy: alright, thanks :) | 07:20 |
| n2diy | navetz: GL | 07:20 |
| Gokee2 | I logged out and choose kde4... Wow does it ever look awful! | 07:21 |
| patifa | vlad: you might want to try "gftp-gtk", a package you cn install from the synaptic package manager. | 07:22 |
| amirman84 | gokee2: you can make KDE look ok by a lot of customization | 07:22 |
| patifa | It's a 'classic' FTP client with SSH support | 07:22 |
| DanaG | Argh, I can't bookmark anything in Firefox! | 07:22 |
| DanaG | What gives? | 07:22 |
| DanaG | I go to "organize" and I get three completely empty panes. | 07:22 |
| amirman84 | gokee2: that's why a lot of people prefer KDE, more customization, but i still use GNOME :) it does look better | 07:22 |
| amirman84 | gokee2: but KDE4 lacks in customization options so it sucks | 07:23 |
| DanaG | ARGH! | 07:23 |
| qman__ | Hi everyone, I had a question regarding screen brightness adjustment on my dell laptop in ubuntu 8.04. When I press the fn+ keys to adjust the screen brightness, it does adjust, but instead of just going one notch, it adjusts about 60% of the bar in that direction. Is there any way to adjust how much it changes with each keypress? | 07:23 |
| n2diy | DanaG: who owns the Bookmark file? | 07:24 |
| end-user | GNOME vs KDE: I find I prefer whichever one I'm not using at the time ;) | 07:24 |
| ackbahr | Hello! Can I clean a faulty Hardy upgrade from the CD I just downloaded and toasted? | 07:24 |
| DanaG | It's on fat32, so there's no such thing as permissions. | 07:24 |
| kevineamigh | ok well since my problem with my headset does not have a current solution by the looks of it since I've spent like a week trying to find one, I have a rather simple question to ask that probably has a easy solution | 07:24 |
| patifa | ackbahr: how 'toasted' did you get? | 07:24 |
| Gokee2 | Hmm I did not like gnome when I tried it. I mostly use xfce, but kde4 is really REALLY bad! I think something must be set wrong | 07:24 |
| DanaG | drwxrwxrwx 2 root shadow 4096 2008-05-01 22:56 bookmarkbackups | 07:24 |
| DanaG | stuff like that. | 07:24 |
| kevineamigh | how do I get number lock to be on by default on startup | 07:24 |
| Bodsda | ackbahr: did u put it in a toaster? | 07:24 |
| patifa | I'd like to know that one, too. My numlock light turns on it, but numlock isn't actually active. | 07:25 |
| n2diy | DanaG: ok root owns it, who are you? | 07:25 |
| DanaG | It's set to 777 permissions, though. | 07:25 |
| kevineamigh | my password has numbers in it along with letters so it is much more convient if number lock is on | 07:25 |
| ackbahr | patifa: I backed it in a oven, actually (parmigiano, olive oil on a slice of brown bread) | 07:25 |
| Bodsda | ackbahr: sounds nice | 07:25 |
| ackbahr | patifa: But my laptop is more or less in the same state as if I had put it in a toaster, thanks to this Hardy upgrade! | 07:26 |
| n2diy | DanaG: ok on the 777, bad practice. And it is called bookmarkbackups? | 07:26 |
| DanaG | That's just one of the folders there; all files in the profile are there. | 07:26 |
| ackbahr | Bodsda: More seriously, is there something else to do than wipe everything and start over? | 07:26 |
| OzFalcon | Ackbar! | 07:26 |
| DanaG | I mean, all are 777. | 07:26 |
| DanaG | Oh yeah, and some pages are bookmarkable, but some are not. | 07:27 |
| patifa | ackbahr: Still need to be more specific. Does GRUB start? Can you make it to flash screen? Does it power on? | 07:27 |
| ackbahr | OzFalcon: AckbaHr | 07:27 |
| Bodsda | ackbahr: you want a clean install -- tar your /home then put it on a seperate hd then reinstall, other then that, not really | 07:27 |
| OzFalcon | ackbahr, ;-) | 07:27 |
| patifa | err, that's splash screen | 07:27 |
| n2diy | DanaG: use my nick in your replies, so I can pull them out of the noise! | 07:27 |
| navetz | how can I find out what intel graphics card I have? | 07:27 |
| qman__ | navetz: lspci | 07:28 |
| navetz | i think i have i810 but i am not sure | 07:28 |
| n2diy | navetz: lshw | 07:28 |
| arvind_khadri | navetz, lspci | 07:28 |
| kevineamigh | I know it's hard to press the number lock button everytime I boot up to put in my password, but I've kind of got used to not having to do it over the years | 07:28 |
| navetz | thanks | 07:28 |
| ackbahr | patifa: This is what went wrong : dpkg is screwed up and would only install things again after I wiped its memory, and my graphical settings are completely off. | 07:28 |
| OzFalcon | ackbahr, Couldn't figure out why I couldn't change nick...... Then I used Ackbar (Like Frak). ANd your right there! | 07:28 |
| qman__ | does anyone know how to configure the screen brightness controls for a laptop? | 07:28 |

| snowveil | one of those 4 partitions was used for ubuntu (well, split into 2 for the swap as well) | 07:30 |
| OzFalcon | snowveil, you let it auto part. | 07:30 |
| snowveil | I didn't | 07:30 |

| Bodsda | ackbahr: nope -- ul lose installed apps but thats it,.,. just reinstall now m8 | 07:32 |

| omnz0r | ikonia: I don't know if you remember, but I had some trouble getting fully maximized windows on an external monitor, that mirrors my laptop because the resolution wasn't set properly. I haven't found an elegant way to do it, but if I move the window's titlebar down to the bottom of the screen (so it's below the 800 height of my laptop) and then maximize it, it works as expected.

| darkcrab | just choose other network | 07:36 |
| darkcrab | enter your ssid | 07:36 |
| ere4si | */etc/fstab | 07:36 |
| tijn | any know problems with firefox 3? | 07:36 |
| darkcrab | enter wpa | 07:36 |
| DistroJockey | ackbahr, they be hidden by default | 07:36 |
| arvind_khadri | ere4si, this is long term but what about the ones that follow .... i feel really weird about such a small release cycle....should be atleast a year gap .... | 07:36 |
| ackbahr | DistroJockey: Ah yep, that's right.... | 07:36 |
| DSMatthews | Well I must have to much brain then.... | 07:36 |
| darkcrab | and enter your key | 07:36 |
| ariqs | bodsda: wine channel people are not helpful. They're linux elitists | 07:36 |
| snowveil | which dir should I run that from, OzFalcon? | 07:36 |
| patifa | tijn: flash randomly crashes FF3 | 07:37 |
| ackbahr | DistroJockey: Yep, I know.... How can I display them to copy them? | 07:37 |
| * Rabiddog slaps his damn newly upgraded ubuntu kernel...........I guess I need to remember how I recompiled the kernel to support dmraid and slowed the startup by about 3 secs for the raid array to spin up, dang ubuntu won't recognize my /home drive which is a raid array | 07:37 | |
| darkcrab | flash works better in epiphany | 07:37 |
| barana | ere: ill look | 07:37 |
| sz0 | I have a Python which I want to run it on a server. I can run succesfully it on 8.04 desktop but not on server. Here is the command: python -c "import socket, struct; struct.unpack('L', socket.inet_aton(\"172.17.7.100\"))[0]" , It gives the error message "struct.error: unpack requires a string argument of length 8". Any idea about this? | 07:37 |
| OzFalcon | snowveil, any | 07:37 |
| ere4si | arvind_khadri: 3 years support for the lts - I hang off until 8.04.1 for a regular use desktop install | 07:37 |
| Bodsda | ariqs: yes,.,.but i bet they are helpfull | 07:37 |
| DistroJockey | ackbahr, in Nautilus, goto View - Show Hidden Files (or press Ctrl+H) | 07:37 |
| DSMatthews | I tried everything logical on two laptops with different chip sets, on both NM fails, but setting up interfaces works! | 07:37 |
| arvind_khadri | ere4si, whats that ?? | 07:38 |
| snowveil | just ran it OzFalcon | 07:38 |
| darkcrab | dont know what to tell you DS, I have never had a problem. | 07:38 |
| ackbahr | DistroJockey: Yep, found that.... :) Sorry for asking before checking! | 07:38 |
| n2diy | ere4si: me too. | 07:38 |
| arvind_khadri | ere4si, dont you feel a release cycle of 6 months is too short?? | 07:38 |
| DistroJockey | ackbahr, np, needed a warmup ;) | 07:38 |
| DSMatthews | or a solution? ;_0 | 07:38 |
| tech0007 | snowveil: sudo /sbin/parted /dev/sdX print | 07:38 |
| ere4si | arvind_khadri: I have 8.04 on a "testing" machine - the comp I do work on has 7.10 | 07:38 |
| stdin | sz0: try #python | 07:38 |
| darkcrab | the solution is that Network Manager has always worked for me. | 07:39 |
| ere4si | arvind_khadri: yes | 07:39 |
| === FriedCPU is now known as FRiEd|BnC | ||
| ere4si | arvind_khadri: 6 months seems less than optimal | 07:39 |
| n2diy | arvind_khadri: no, LTS is on a three year release cycle, IIRC? | 07:39 |
| DSMatthews | used *nix since 1996, I'm not that green.... | 07:39 |
| OzFalcon | snowveil, then try something like this "sudo fdisk /dev/sda -l" | 07:39 |
| sz0 | stdin: Ok. | 07:39 |
| arvind_khadri | ere4si, we wont loose Users in six months or so....by making the cycle so short we make every thing so unstable | 07:39 |
| barana | ere4si: is seems to be there under scd0 - yes | 07:39 |
| OzFalcon | snowveil, to list the partitions on that disk. | 07:40 |
| arvind_khadri | n2diy, :) am talking about the release cycle not the support :) | 07:40 |
| kevineamigh | I really think that a new operating system that is developed in today's world should not have so many issues when it comes to sound, number lock, or some of the other issues people have that they shouldn't have to worry about in the first place | 07:40 |
| ere4si | arvind_khadri: following distrowatch.com - users want the latest/newest | 07:40 |
| darkcrab | ubuntu has tons of issues, im just boreed | 07:40 |
| darkcrab | so I installed it | 07:40 |
| TooFly | Hello! I'm very new and have a question regarding installing Ubuntu. I have both an on-board graphics card, as well as a PCI-express card, and I am having trouble beginning the installation from CD. | 07:40 |
| n2diy | arvind_khadri: Well, if you have three years of support, why worry about the current releases? | 07:40 |
| ere4si | barana: and what isn't it doing pls - sorry I missed the original post | 07:41 |
| TooFly | Anyone know what I'm supposed to do? | 07:41 |
| patifa | TooFly: What's the error? | 07:41 |
| DSMatthews | Ubuntu is great, and getting better all the time, but some core functions are still klunky. | 07:41 |
| snowveil | OzFalcon, under gparted I'm only seeing one drive, not both of them | 07:41 |
| TooFly | I begin the install, and the computer reboots and goes black. | 07:41 |
| arvind_khadri | ere4si, ok we can make the cycle a year and half .... and i really dont think Canonical should care about people who are leaving | 07:41 |
| TooFly | It looks like my monitor is cycling between analog and digital trying to get a signal. | 07:41 |
| snowveil | however, ubuntu is able to recognize both drives and 3 of the 4 partitions | 07:41 |

| bullgard4 | [Hardy] In what directory does tracker store its index files? | 07:41 |
| LSD|Ninja | GG2: which do you prefer, GNOME or KDE? | 07:41 |
| Rabiddog | Ubuntu video recognition sucks | 07:41 |
| mmmiiikkkeee | I am having problems with installing the package 'hal' since I upgraded to hardy. http://paste.ubuntu.com/9406/ | 07:41 |
| ere4si | arvind_khadri: seen the popularity contest app in ubuntu... | 07:42 |
| GG2 | I haven't used KDE | 07:42 |
| DistroJockey | snowveil, Gparted has a dropdown menu to change the drive you are viewing | 07:42 |
| DSMatthews | Kubuntu is for KDE people, more windows like in some ways. | 07:42 |
| GG2 | no clue | 07:42 |
| * Rabiddog knows os a great script that will get nvidia video working with glx right off the bat | 07:42 | |
| arvind_khadri | n2diy, :) no comments | 07:42 |
| snowveil | haha, there it is | 07:42 |
| patifa | TooFly: Does the CD even start with the selection menu? | 07:42 |
| DistroJockey | :) | 07:42 |
| GG2 | Kubunto is easier to use? | 07:42 |
| OzFalcon | snowveil, Is gparted some extra install? | 07:42 |
| norty | Question: I just upgrade to 8.04 from 7.10, but when I try to play videos like youtube or myspace the sound doesn't work... how do I fix this? | 07:42 |
| snowveil | looks like the drive in question is still there | 07:42 |
| arvind_khadri | ere4si, yeah i did ,why do we need all that.... | 07:42 |
| n2diy | arvind_khadri: trolling? | 07:42 |
| TooFly | Yes, it does. I select install from the menu. | 07:42 |
| snowveil | /dev/sdb2 | 07:42 |
| patifa | TooFly: Then what happens? | 07:43 |
| TooFly | I tried "install in safe graphics mode" as well, and it does the same thing. | 07:43 |
| Carbonflux | does anyone know where the routing table is in Ubuntu ? | 07:43 |
| william__ | hey um ubuntu studio isnt very good at installing other things eyecandy or games or alot of apps i noticed......sigh | 07:43 |
| barana | sorry mate - its not mounting on the desktop- and i go into the fie browser and when i click it a requester bow tell me it cant mount. i also look int the dev/cdrom0 folder and its empty | 07:43 |
| darkcrab | depends whether you like gnome or kde GG2 | 07:43 |
| Carbonflux | I can't find it in /etc/routes | 07:43 |
| ere4si | arvind_khadri: it's a mindset perhaps | 07:43 |
| TooFly | It loads the kernel, and the screen goes black | 07:43 |
| Rabiddog | norty: make sure you don't have adblock installed | 07:43 |
| Rabiddog | in firefox | 07:43 |
| ere4si | barana: ? | 07:43 |
| arvind_khadri | n2diy, no not at all do you want me to move to OT | 07:43 |
| TooFly | And stays black :( | 07:43 |
| DSMatthews | Some people like Kubuntu because is seems more familiar, but it is just a desktop... | 07:43 |
| arvind_khadri | ere4si, perhaps | 07:43 |
| darkcrab | is it better to install firefox addons from synaptic or from the browser | 07:43 |
| DistroJockey | TooFly, I assume it is the Desktop CD you are trying? | 07:43 |
| n2diy | arvind_khadri: sure, give me a sec. | 07:43 |
| TooFly | yes | 07:43 |
| Rabiddog | TooFly: do u figure it finished loading? | 07:43 |
| zvacet | GG2 : i think that depends on your habit but you can try it if you want to and then decide which one you like | 07:43 |
| DistroJockey | TooFly, if you can, try the Alternate CD | 07:44 |
| arvind_khadri | n2diy, fine | 07:44 |
| TooFly | yeah it reaches 100% | 07:44 |
| bullgard4 | Carbonflux: It is in the kernel. Run 'route' in a GNOME terminal. | 07:44 |
| TooFly | where can I get it, and what's the difference? | 07:44 |
| norty | Rabiddog, i looked those all plugins, extensions and add-ons in firefox but i dont see adblock... ? | 07:44 |
| patifa | TooFly: Installer is text-only in alternate CD | 07:44 |
| darkcrab | i refuse to use to kde personally, i will only use gnome | 07:44 |
| Rabiddog | ok then its something else | 07:44 |
| DSMatthews | Ubuntu / Gnome suits some people more, it's clean and streamlined. | 07:44 |
| Rabiddog | norty | 07:44 |
| keegan | hi , when i connect to an unsecured wireless network , i get the following message. authenticated, Associated with AP (machine address), invalid aid value 0 , Rx Assoc rep, AP denied Association. I cant connect even with vista. Its a netgear AP. Any ideas | 07:44 |
| hellues | !paste | 07:44 |
| ubottu | pastebin is a service to post multiple-lined texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu.com (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the channel topic) | 07:44 |
| Rabiddog | TooFly: is this a live cd.....or a hdd install? | 07:44 |
| Carbonflux | bullgard1, what if I want alter the routes so they persist when I reboot ? | 07:44 |
| norty | Rabiddog, It seems to only ont work when the player is built-in to the site | 07:44 |
| TooFly | I'm sorry, I'm not quite sure. I downloaded the image, burned it to a CD, and booted off the CD. | 07:45 |
| icesword | sigh.... the same story, same dialogue | 07:45 |
| darkcrab | probably that network keegan | 07:45 |
| barana | sorry mate - its not mounting on the desktop- and i go into the file browser and when i click it, a requester tells me it cant mount. i also look in the dev/cdrom0 folder and its empty. | 07:45 |
| DSMatthews | keegan: are you using DHCP? | 07:45 |
| TooFly | I guess live CD? | 07:45 |
| snowveil | how can I tell what mounted name corresponds with the /dev/sdX name? | 07:45 |
| Rabiddog | norty, I had issues until I installed non-free flashplayer and removed adblock (this is not the same as adblock plus) | 07:45 |
| patifa | keegan: It sounds like a MAC address filter. Furthermore it doesn't sound like an ubuntu problem, but more likely a problem with a misconfigured router blocking wireless access. | 07:45 |
| barana | ere4si ^ | 07:45 |
| Shadow420 | well I have noticed that when I am trying to run a java game on hardy it's just a bad of using it like gutsy I may have to reinstall it because I upgraded it | 07:45 |
| tech0007 | snowveil: mount | 07:45 |
| stdin | snowveil: type "mount" in a terminal | 07:45 |
| Rabiddog | TooFly: hmm | 07:45 |
| GG2 | Is there anything as good as mIRC on linux? this XChat doesn't even come close | 07:45 |
| ere4si | barana: is that with one cd or several? | 07:45 |
| keegan | DSMatthews: yes i am using DHCP. | 07:46 |
| tech0007 | GG2: try pidgin | 07:46 |
| darkcrab | Ah, that makes since Rabi, I think I had that problem before. | 07:46 |
| keegan | patifa: how do i find out if its a MAC address filter | 07:46 |
| zcat[1]_ | http://xkcd.com/416/ | 07:46 |
| Rabiddog | GG2: what do u mean is it lacking? | 07:46 |
| DSMatthews | Keegan: Do you have admin access on the WiFi router? | 07:46 |
| TooFly | I suspect it is a problem with the fact that I have both an on-board video card and another video card in my PCI-express, which is what my monitor is connected to. | 07:46 |
| bullgard4 | Carbonflux: Please use the 'route' command for that purpose. See 'man route'. | 07:46 |
| hellues | hey | 07:46 |
| ruang1 | hei juga | 07:46 |
| Rabiddog | GG2: or try chatzilla with the faces theme | 07:46 |
| Carbonflux | thank you bullgard4 :) | 07:46 |
| Shadow420 | GG2 there is other IRC programs for linux just google irc programs for linux | 07:46 |
| keegan | DSMatthews: no i do not have admin access to the WIFi router. | 07:46 |
| Carbonflux | I understand | 07:46 |
| darkcrab | i hate chatzilla | 07:47 |
| icesword | !irc | 07:47 |

| DistroJockey | TooFly, to get it, go to the following link and tick the box below the green download link: http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/download | 07:47 |
| Rabiddog | TooFly: disable onboard video | 07:47 |
| darkcrab | x-chat 4tw | 07:47 |
| norty | Rabiddog, what is non-free flash player? | 07:47 |
| barana | ere4si: no just one cd its a combo drive - im trying to read the installed cd | 07:47 |
| patifa | keegan: All I know is that, by the error, the netgear AP is going through the motions to connect you, then deciding it wants to deny you access. Ubuntu's wireless driver responds to the deny message and ends the connection attempt. | 07:47 |
| TooFly | DistroJockey: Thank you | 07:47 |
| darkcrab | adobe flash norty | 07:47 |
| Rabiddog | norty the one that comes direct from adobe flash | 07:47 |
| TooFly | Rabiddog: is this done in BIOS? | 07:47 |
| ere4si | barana: soory - I meant disk not drive | 07:47 |
| DSMatthews | keegan: did you look at, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=318539 | 07:47 |
| DistroJockey | TooFly, there may be a workaround you can use if you don't wan't or can't download another 700 odd MB though) | 07:47 |
| Rabiddog | yes depends on mobo | 07:47 |
| darkcrab | adobe only problems rpms now which I think is fedora core. | 07:47 |
| ere4si | *sorry | 07:47 |
| snowveil | well, it appears that sdb2 is the other partition on the drive that ubuntu is installed on | 07:47 |
| TooFly | What would the workaround be? | 07:47 |
| barana | *installer | 07:47 |
| Rabiddog | darkcrab: huh | 07:48 |
| TooFly | Is this a common problem? | 07:48 |
| zcat[1]_ | 'non-free' just means it's not open-source, it diesn't mean anyone has to pay money to use it.. | 07:48 |
| tech0007 | !adobe | 07:48 |
| ubottu | Factoid adobe not found | 07:48 |
| OzFalcon | WTF, Why does gparted have option to unmount, But none to mount??? | 07:48 |
| icesword | yep | 07:48 |
| patifa | TooFly: Before you attempt that. Could you try hooking your monitor up to the onboard video after the kernel starts to load? | 07:48 |
| keegan | patifa: seems likely. how can i change my MAC address on ubuntu ? | 07:48 |
| DistroJockey | TooFly, you're welcome. I always get the Alternate as it supports more install scenarios) | 07:48 |
| snowveil | and my second, 200gb drive, which should be split into two partitions, is only showing up as one large partition in GParted | 07:48 |
| Shadow420 | well adobe flash is becoming open-sourced | 07:48 |
| ere4si | !wtf | OzFalcon | 07:48 |
| ubottu | OzFalcon: Please watch your language and topic to help keep this channel family friendly. | 07:48 |
| darkcrab | adobe's website, Rabidog, only provides an RPM package now, and you cannot use that on ubuntu | 07:48 |
| TooFly | patifa: good idea, let me try | 07:48 |
| darkcrab | so basically we are stuck with flash-nonfree | 07:48 |
| Rabiddog | darkcrab: idiots.... | 07:48 |
| sriramoman | can someone tell me what is wrong with the following script? | 07:48 |
| sriramoman | if [ ! -f "calendar" ]; then echo "making"; mkdir "calendar"; else echo "Hi"; fi ; | 07:48 |
| snowveil | could ubuntu have merged the two partitions into one, even though they're not directly related with the installation? | 07:48 |
| TooFly | i'm gonna feel dumb if this works :) | 07:48 |
| Rabiddog | lol | 07:48 |
| helai | ubuntu is not so good as I think | 07:49 |
| DSMatthews | Keegan: no point changing the MAC if you can't see the list of allowed MAC numbers set onb the WiFi router. | 07:49 |
| Rabiddog | helai: don't think :P | 07:49 |
| Shadow420 | helai it all depends on your taste | 07:49 |
| zvacet | TooFly : did you disabled on p your graphic in BIOS | 07:49 |
| keegan | DSMatthews: i think i know the list of allowed MAC address. | 07:49 |
| icesword | helai, hmm, define "not so good" | 07:49 |
| snowveil | strange though, because it's a 200gb drive, and the partition that makes up that drive is only listed as 107GB | 07:49 |
| stdin | sriramoman: you're checking for a file "-f" you want to check for a dir "-d" | 07:49 |
| Carbonflux | bullgard1, my problem is a I have a device on my internal net I want to get at, its at 192.168.1.1 my router and gateway etc are one 192.168.0.1 and all the computer are 0.x addy, if I change the subnet mask to 255.255.0.0 I can get it the device from my windows machine but not my Ubuntu machine, its weird, it should be working | 07:49 |
| mmmiiikkkeee | I am having problems with installing the package 'hal' since I upgraded to hardy. http://paste.ubuntu.com/9406/ | 07:49 |
| snowveil | so there is definitely still either extra unformatted space on there, or the other partition exists | 07:49 |
| darkcrab | yea, I am finding epiphany to be a much more compatible browser in gnome. | 07:49 |
| sriramoman | stdin, ok. i shall try. | 07:49 |
| emergion | Hello, anyone had a problem with 8.04 freezing on boot? | 07:49 |
| darkcrab | though I do like the firefox extra features. | 07:49 |
| emergion | sorry shutdown :P | 07:49 |
| knix | Why is the hardy installer telling me / must be at least 2gb, that's insanity | 07:50 |
| keegan | DSMatthews: since its an unsecured network a promiscous scan will show me MAC addresses of all machines connecting. | 07:50 |
| patifa | TooFly: I'm suspecting that you still have onboard video enabled. After Ubuntu starts up, it loads up the simplist drivers at first, which is probably starting up your onboard video. Without manually changing back to PCI-e with a different graphics driver, it'll stay using that onboard. However if you disable onboard, the basic driver (vesa) will start up your PCI-e graphics card in VESA mode. | 07:50 |
| sriramoman | stdin, what is the common tag for both file and dir? | 07:50 |
| helai | of course I also don't think winxp is good | 07:50 |
| darkcrab | 2 gb for what knix? | 07:50 |
| Rabiddog | darkcrab: me too | 07:50 |
| knix | darkcrab: my / partition | 07:50 |
| tech0007 | snowveil: what does fdisk -l /dev/sdb2 say? | 07:50 |
| stdin | sriramoman: "-e" (exists) | 07:50 |
| Carbonflux | heh, this channel is too busy anymore | 07:50 |
| knix | It's giving me an error telling me to make it larger | 07:50 |
| zcat[1]_ | adobe's site shows tar.gz, rpm and yum packages.. who said they only do rpm?! | 07:50 |
| tech0007 | snowveil: sorry fdisk -l /dev/sdb | 07:50 |
| Rabiddog | patifa: thats why I suggested disabling it in bios | 07:50 |
| darkcrab | na, thats not possible knix | 07:50 |
| sriramoman | ok | 07:50 |
| helai | this is why I migrate to ubuntu | 07:50 |
| knix | darkcrab: what's not? | 07:50 |
| DSMatthews | Keegan: some chip sets will allow MAC change, if the Linux driver for it has that option, it isn't a priority | 07:50 |
| TooFly | OK, I tried connecting my monitor to onboard video after kernel loaded - no dice. I'll fuddle through BIOS and try to disable the onboard video | 07:50 |
| Rabiddog | zcat[1]_: heh teach me to take darkcrab 's word for it | 07:51 |
| snowveil | "cannot open sdb" | 07:51 |
| zvacet | knix : that is realy minimum | 07:51 |
| darkcrab | 2 gib partition? could it be, maybe. | 07:51 |
| Shadow420 | helai I am a WinXP/Ubuntu user | 07:51 |
| tech0007 | snowveil: sudo fdisk -l /dev/sdb | 07:51 |
| amen51 | hi, the flash plugin(s) for firefox does not seem to work under ubuntu 8.04? (e.g. CNN website complains) | 07:51 |
| zcat[1]_ | I never take anyone's word for anything :) | 07:51 |
| keegan | DSMatthews: I have an intel pro, | 07:51 |
| knix | zvacet: maybe if you make your entire system on / like a fool | 07:51 |
| patifa | TooFly: If your PCI-e graphics card also has two outputs, try both of them. | 07:51 |
| darkcrab | well, I only have ubuntu on here right now | 07:51 |
| Shadow420 | helai I use linux as an OS to get away from windows for awhile | 07:51 |
| Rabiddog | zcat[1]_: :D | 07:51 |
| helai | yes I also have this two os installed | 07:51 |
| knix | I have /usr /var /home /boot /tmp all on their own partitions ... | 07:51 |
| cycom | knix: it's not so foolish if your drive is small. | 07:51 |
| knix | My drive isn't small =( | 07:52 |
| DSMatthews | keegan: look up the driver docs for it.... | 07:52 |
| TooFly | patifa: Yet another good idea! | 07:52 |
| patifa | I remember when I first put in a PCI-e card, it defaulted to the DVI output, when all I had was a VGA monitor hooked up to the VGA output. | 07:52 |
| norty | Rabiddog, how do i download that flash player, is there an apt-get command or something? | 07:52 |
| keegan | DSMatthews: Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless 4965 AG , can u direct me to some documentation where i can chane the MAC address. | 07:52 |
| zcat[1]_ | if adobe made a .deb I wouldn't trust them anyhow... they'd probably try to bundle the yahoo search toolbar for firefox with it :( | 07:52 |
| keegan | DSMatthews: thanks. | 07:52 |
| tech0007 | norty: flash-plugin-nonfree | 07:52 |
| OzFalcon | Why doesn't gparted have option to mount??? | 07:52 |
| Rabiddog | patifa: yeah i had a issue with one port not working under linux,,,,,I forget the option I had to enable as a option on the kernel boot to get it to work | 07:52 |
| cycom | knix: no, but calling someone a fool before you know the details of why they did something can be evidence that your brain is. | 07:52 |
| barana | ere4si: r u still there? | 07:52 |
| helai | just like thunder,this is easy for me to download stuffs | 07:52 |
| snowveil | sdb is accounted for | 07:52 |
| Shadow420 | helai heck if I wanted to I could have 3 on my PC | 07:52 |
| snowveil | I'm gonna run it for sda | 07:52 |
| ere4si | barana: | 07:52 |
| darkcrab | it works amen, just not well | 07:52 |
| bastadr | hallo .... how to install 7.10 WITHOUT FORMAT? | 07:52 |
| tech0007 | norty: flashplugin-nonfree | 07:52 |
| zvacet | knix : CD is ~700MB and after decompressing what so you think how much space will need | 07:52 |
| bastadr | please .. I'm in the middle of it | 07:52 |
| Rabiddog | norty: actually it may be in ubuntu's non free repository iirc | 07:53 |
| patifa | TooFly: It'll probably never touch something like an s-video by default, but a VGA/DVI pair it definately could. | 07:53 |
| stdin | OzFalcon: because it's a partitioning tool, and partitions need to be unmounted to edit them | 07:53 |
| snowveil | Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System | 07:53 |
| snowveil | /dev/sdb1 1 892 7164958+ 83 Linux | 07:53 |

| cycom | bastadr: resize your partitions... | 07:53 |
| FloodBot2 | snowveil: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 07:53 |
| zcat[1]_ | !pastebin | 07:53 |
| ubottu | pastebin is a service to post multiple-lined texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu.com (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the channel topic) | 07:53 |
| tech0007 | !paste | snowveil | 07:53 |
| ubottu | snowveil: please see above | 07:53 |
| darkcrab | there are better gecko based browsers out there though and there is opera too | 07:53 |
| snowveil | I just used paste.ubuntu.com :-/ | 07:53 |
| devrethman | Are there any linux AIM clients that support video? | 07:53 |
| amen51 | darkcrab, used to work fine in 7.04 | 07:53 |
| zcat[1]_ | hehe, let's all flood the channel with don't flood trigegrs.. | 07:53 |
| knix | zvacet: / is used for almost nothing ... I have a seperate /usr /var /boot /tmp /home ... | 07:53 |
| OzFalcon | stdin, k | 07:53 |
| norty | Rabiddog, it says that i already have it... | 07:53 |
| darkcrab | yea, its probably because of firefox 3 or its a new bug | 07:53 |
| darkcrab | there is a fix | 07:54 |
| Rabiddog | then remove the other flashplayers that u have installed | 07:54 |
| darkcrab | but I forget the download | 07:54 |
| Rabiddog | norty: | 07:54 |
| ere4si | barana: I asked if it was with one disk or several...? | 07:54 |
| amen51 | darkcrab, can you watch CNN? | 07:54 |
| darkcrab | let me check | 07:54 |
| TooFly | yeah I have DVI/VGA on my monitor. My PCI-e card has DVI and VGA, and my onboard has only VGA. I plugged the DVI from monitor into my PCI-e card, and the VGA from monitor into the onboard. | 07:54 |
| Shadow420 | bastadr you have to format because linux uses a differentfilesystem than windows or other OS's | 07:54 |
| TooFly | Now I have no video at all :( | 07:54 |
| Rabiddog | .... | 07:54 |
| TooFly | I at least got the boot menu with VGA in my PCI-e card | 07:54 |
| zvacet | knix :O.K. | 07:54 |
| Rabiddog | too fly did u disable onboard video? | 07:54 |
| === zcat[1]_ is now known as zcat[1] | ||
| snowveil | oh, ok, I get it | 07:54 |
| tech0007 | TooFly: i think u should use either not both if you have 1 monitor | 07:55 |
| DSMatthews | keegan: not off the top of me head... sorry... that is the problem I had today, finding relevant and uptodate info for a specific setup. | 07:55 |
| patifa | TooFly: The VGA doesn't work past the boot menu? | 07:55 |
| Shadow420 | bastadr you have to format because linux uses a different FileSystem than windows or other OS's | 07:55 |
| TooFly | OK. | 07:55 |
| helai | but from time to time,you will stick in the mud of the we site,(ie incompatibility) | 07:55 |
| mmmiiikkkeee | I am having problems with installing the package 'hal' since I upgraded to hardy. http://paste.ubuntu.com/9406/ ... Is this the right place to ask about this problem? | 07:55 |
| keegan | DSMatthews: its okay. thanks a lot for the help given | 07:55 |
| snowveil | http://paste.ubuntu.com/9410/ | 07:55 |
| darkcrab | yes I can watch CNN amen51 | 07:55 |
| amen51 | which plugin did you install | 07:56 |
| barana | ere4si: sorry i replied a little while ago i have just one but _it is_ a combo drive | 07:56 |
| Shadow420 | helai I deal with that constantly because I have an older system at home | 07:56 |
| darkcrab | flash-nonfree | 07:56 |
| nickthorley | hi all - i installed a network wireless driver via ndis. if i go into it the driver is showing as hardware present but when i click the network settings box all cards are greyed out - is this because networkmanager has control? | 07:56 |
| Rabiddog | norty did u check for other installed flash players? | 07:56 |
| tech0007 | snowveil: are you referring to the swap/solaris partition? | 07:56 |
| DSMatthews | keegan: google is your friend, if you spend time wading through all the noise | 07:56 |
| amen51 | ok, thanks | 07:56 |
| snowveil | sda is only showing one partition, when it should be two (107gb and roughly 80gb) | 07:56 |
| norty | Rabiddog, no.. | 07:56 |
| helai | yes,linux system is always good for old hardware | 07:56 |
| barana | ere4si: and yeah there is only one disk in it. | 07:56 |
| Rabiddog | u should only have 1 flashplayer installed at a time, otherwise they conflict | 07:56 |
| snowveil | when opening the 107gb partition in ubuntu's GUI, it shows that it is only 107gb in size, not the full 187 | 07:56 |
| zvacet | mmmiiikkkeee : sudo dpkg --configure -a | 07:57 |
| darkcrab | the only thing ubuntu wont detect is my dialup, but frankly oh well | 07:57 |
| darkcrab | I doubt I will ever have a need for my dialup | 07:57 |
| === nico_|gone is now known as nico_ | ||
| darkcrab | on my laptop | 07:57 |
| ere4si | barana: I saw that - then said I meant disks not drives - the round shiny things - try another disk and see if it is the same | 07:57 |
| aLeSD | hi ... how can I run awn and emerald on startup ? | 07:57 |
| snowveil | however, when running that sudo fdisk command it only lists one parition, being the full size | 07:57 |
| zcat[1] | helai: you gotta be kidding.. Hardy is slow on machines that still run XP pretty well, it's only light compared to Vista! | 07:57 |
| mmmiiikkkeee | zvacet: I get the same out put with sudo dpkg --configure -a. it still does not install! | 07:57 |
| darkcrab | the opensource flashplayer gnash sucks so bad. | 07:57 |
| Rabiddog | zcat[1]: u gotta be kidding | 07:58 |
| ikt | flash + firefox :< | 07:58 |
| zvacet | mmmiiikkkeee : sudo apt-get -f install | 07:58 |
| darkcrab | my machine was made for xp and hardy runs really fast. | 07:58 |
| Rabiddog | dark I agree | 07:58 |
| zcat[1] | I can still run XP in 128M ram, ubuntu is dog slow with that little. | 07:58 |
| Rabiddog | ... | 07:58 |
| darkcrab | in fact, hardy uses less ram on my system than xp did. | 07:58 |
| ikt | xp with 128mb of ram would be dog slow as well | 07:58 |
| helai | why you don't chose xfce instead | 07:59 |
| tech0007 | snowveil: try mounting that SFS partition as NTFS | 07:59 |
| ikt | we never recommended xp with less than 256mb of ram, and that 256 was just for xp | 07:59 |
| TooFly | I'm sorry, my BIOS is confusing me. There is no option for "onboard video" in the menu. There is a PCI/PnP setup menu. I have change the field "Init Display First" from "PCI" to "PCI Express." Is this it? | 07:59 |
| darkcrab | ok, you can only run xp in 128 mgs of ram hacked zcat. | 07:59 |
| snowveil | sorry to be so ignorant, but how would I go about doing that? | 07:59 |
| snowveil | because it should be ntfs | 07:59 |
| zcat[1] | I dunno, perhaps it's just my expectation, I haven't actually run XP for a while but I'm pretty sure it wasn't this slow in 128M | 07:59 |
| barana | ere4si: oops sorry yeah tried a few discs dvds too but same issue | 07:59 |
| desneedy_ | I've just installed xubuntu on my pc, and unfortunately have forgetten the root passwd. | 07:59 |
| patifa | doesn't sound right, TooFly. What's your Motherboard and/or BIOS maker? | 07:59 |
| Rabiddog | zcat: its nt ubuntu its gnome | 07:59 |
| desneedy_ | What can I do? | 07:59 |
| Slart | desneedy_: there is no root password.. do you mean your user password? | 08:00 |
| darkcrab | if you ran xp right now it woudl be super slow in 128m zcat | 08:00 |
| darkcrab | trust me | 08:00 |
| TooFly | patifa: ECS (some $50 mobo :() | 08:00 |
| mmmiiikkkeee | zvacet: it gets to " Starting Hardware abstraction layer hald" and hangs and says: " initscript hal, action "start" failed. dpkg: error processing hal (--configure):" | 08:00 |
| darkcrab | xp needs 512 minimum | 08:00 |
| zcat[1] | ubuntu -is- gnome .. if I wanted kde or xfce i'd have said kubuntu or xubuntu | 08:00 |
| ere4si | barana: the drive might be dying - can you try the same disks in another comp? | 08:00 |
| darkcrab | unless you nlite it | 08:00 |
| zionpsyfer | zcat[1]: I'm running ubuntu server on an old 233 with 64M. apache, mysql, proftpd. runs well enough. | 08:00 |
| Rabiddog | desneedy_: boot recovery and select root, then passwd (username) | 08:00 |
| patifa | TooFly: name some other BIOS options :S | 08:00 |
| kane77 | zcat[1], try running xfce instead of gnome, I was running xfce on machine with 128MB ram and it was bearable... | 08:01 |
| ikt | running ubuntu 7.10 with 300mb of ram, p3, isn't fast but neither was xp on it | 08:01 |
| Shadow420 | zcat[1] we know that other wise u would be here if u didn't have gnome | 08:01 |
| darkcrab | xfce is sweet | 08:01 |
| tech0007 | snowveil: mount -t ntfs /dev/sda1 /mountpoint | 08:01 |
| darkcrab | or even fluxbox | 08:01 |
| helai | if you prefer gnome ,of course it is heavy | 08:01 |
| patifa | TooFly: Do you know anything about your motherboard other than manufactuer? Do you know what socke type the CPU is? Trying to find your manual online. | 08:01 |
| node357a | desneedy_, check out http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=273531 | 08:01 |
| ikt | flux = torrentflux? | 08:01 |
| zionpsyfer | darkcrab: + 1 fluxbox | 08:01 |
| ere4si | barana: if the disks work in another comp - and your drive is found by nautilus then the drive is on its' way out | 08:01 |
| DistroJockey | mmmiiikkkeee, this bug relates to your issue I believe: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/alsa-driver/+bug/212960 | 08:01 |
| TooFly | Yeah, it's 775 socket type I believe | 08:01 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 212960 in linux-ubuntu-modules-2.6.24 "Hardy: cx88 NULL pointer dereference (dup-of: 212271)" [High,Fix released] | 08:01 |

| darkcrab | I like fluxbox a lot but I dont know how to configure my wireless in fluxbox without the gnome manager. | 08:02 |
| zcat[1] | perhaps I've just forgotten how slow XP used to be, I dunno.. | 08:02 |
| TooFly | I will look up the manual | 08:02 |
| * Rabiddog slaps TooFly for buying a crap ecs mobo | 08:02 | |
| CygnusX1 | Is the gentleman that told me to use KDE if I wanted move/copy/cancel contecxt menu popup on drag-n-drop present? | 08:02 |
| snowveil | I need to log in as root :-/ | 08:02 |
| darkcrab | zcat, with updates, its changed a lot | 08:02 |
| tech0007 | snowveil: yep | 08:02 |
| snowveil | haha | 08:02 |
| TooFly | Rabiddog: it was a cpu/mobo deal from Fry's on black friday! | 08:02 |
| snowveil | sorry, but I forget how to do that | 08:02 |
| tech0007 | snowveil: or use sudo | 08:02 |
| TooFly | great cpu, terrible mobo | 08:02 |
| patifa | TooFly: Ug, there's at least 50 different mobos listed from ECS with 775 socket type. | 08:02 |
| DistroJockey | mmmiiikkkeee, if you like, you can pastebin the output of dmesg | 08:02 |
| snowveil | what does sudo do exactly? | 08:02 |
| darkcrab | logs you into root snow | 08:02 |
| Rabiddog | TooFly: just because its cheap don't mean its a great deal :P | 08:02 |
| TooFly | Patifa: My apologies, it is 671T-M | 08:02 |
| tech0007 | snowveil: gives you superuser priveleges | 08:03 |
| patifa | snowveil: "super user do" | 08:03 |
| Rabiddog | patifa: yep | 08:03 |
| tech0007 | !sudo | snowveil | 08:03 |
| ubottu | snowveil: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more information. | 08:03 |
| TooFly | Rabiddog: I am starting to agree. | 08:03 |
| snowveil | and, should I substitute "/mountpoint" with something else? | 08:03 |
| zvacet | mmmiiikkkeee : sudo apt-get install --reinstall hal | 08:03 |
| yrlnry | How can I tell grub I want it to default to kernel 2.6.22-14 instead of to 2.6.22-16 | 08:03 |
| tech0007 | snowveil: yep | 08:03 |
| magnetron | !grub | yrlnry | 08:03 |
| ubottu | yrlnry: grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto | 08:03 |
| zionpsyfer | shame enlightenment died, used to love it. | 08:03 |
| zcat[1] | anyhow.. was using Vista last week, twice the ram I have, faster CPU, better everything.. and it just felt sluggish! I'll be installing Ubuntu on the box next week, I think the owner will be quite surprised at the difference | 08:03 |
| Viper111 | hello guys i need help in VPN issues | 08:03 |
| Shadow420 | snowveil sudo is your main command for many adim stuff like software installation and other things | 08:03 |
| helai | when you log on to the system ,please choose it in the grub menu | 08:04 |
| zcat[1] | (BTW; this box doesn't have 128M ram, it's got 2G :) | 08:04 |
| patifa | snowveil: Also whenever the system prompts you for your password to do computer administration, it's using sudo behind the scenes. | 08:04 |
| barana | ere4si: they work on anotherr machine(desktop) this machine is a new laptop - ive installed then re-installed ubuntu - the drive works under xp - my laptop is a lenovo 3000 n200 6xx the n200 769 has been tested by the community and is listed on the site - unfortunately they didnt say whether they tested the optical drive | 08:04 |
| darkcrab | personally, you know what I like about ubuntu over windows zcat, the command line | 08:04 |
| Viper111 | i connect to my ubuntu server through VPN since connection is established i loose route to internet to everyhting, anybody can help in soloving such prob | 08:04 |
| snowveil | sorry for all of the questions again, but how what should I substitute "/mountpoint" with? | 08:04 |
| darkcrab | windows has crappy command line support | 08:04 |
| jasonbx | how can i make different file types to be opened with tehir default applications in nautilus? | 08:05 |
| Shadow420 | zcat[1] well Vista needs at least a 1GB to run so I won't go to vista unless I have too | 08:05 |
| babolat | hello | 08:05 |
| zcat[1] | darkcrab: yah, give me a cmd with tab completion!! | 08:05 |
| Rabiddog | yrlnry: /boot/grub/menu.lst , not sure if u have to reinstall grub though don't remember | 08:05 |
| darkcrab | oh yea | 08:05 |
| tech0007 | snowveil: mkdir /media/sda | 08:05 |
| yrlnry | Rabiddog: thanks. | 08:05 |
| DistroJockey | yrlnry, in /boot/grub/menu.lst where it says default 0 (meaning the 1st title in the list) change it to an appropriate number | 08:05 |
| flemnos | windows' cmd has tab completion | 08:05 |
| babolat | jasonbx: you'll have to define them if they're not that common file types | 08:05 |
| tech0007 | snowveil: sudo mount -t ntfs /dev/sda1 /media/sda | 08:05 |
| patifa | TooFly: huuge manual :S | 08:05 |
| helai | left click it then follow it | 08:05 |
| zcat[1] | it does?! | 08:05 |
| yrlnry | Rabiddog: menu.list also mentions that grub has a "savedefault" command. | 08:05 |
| ere4si | barana: if the disks work and the drive is recognized in nautilus the drive is on its' way out/dead - can't be anything else afaik | 08:05 |
| flemnos | zcat[1]: yea. | 08:05 |
| bullgard4 | [Hardy] In what directory does tracker store its index files? | 08:05 |
| yrlnry | DistroJockey: thanks. | 08:05 |
| zcat[1] | never works for me | 08:06 |
| jasonbx | babolat, whre do I define them? | 08:06 |
| TooFly | patifa: I'm reading the paper copy, which looks short. Could you link me? | 08:06 |
| mmmiiikkkeee | DistroJockey: here is my dmesg http://paste.ubuntu.com/9411/ | 08:06 |
| DistroJockey | Rabiddog, yrlnry : no you don't need to re-install grub (changes take affect straight away after reboot) | 08:06 |
| FloodBot2 | !netsplit | 08:06 |
| ubottu | netsplit is when two IRC servers of the same network (like Freenode) disconnect from each other, so users on one server stop seeing users on the other. If this is happening now, just relax and enjoy the show. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Netsplit | 08:06 |

| DistroJockey | yrlnry, you're welcome | 08:06 |
| tech0007 | snowveil: you may have to use sudo mkdir /media/sda | 08:06 |
| flemnos | zcat[1]: and up/down arrow for previous command scrolling. | 08:06 |
| Viper111 | i connect to my ubuntu server through VPN since connection is established i loose route to internet to everyhting, anybody can help in soloving such prob | 08:06 |
| patifa | TooFly: Either that or I'm downloading a bunch of pictures in a PDF, won't know till I finish since the thing is zipped. | 08:06 |
| babolat | jasonbx: Right click the file and get to Open with Different Application or somethin' like that. then browse to your app | 08:06 |
| snowveil | yup, figured that one out :) | 08:06 |
| flemnos | zcat[1]: yea, in xp. | 08:06 |
| zcat[1] | flemnos: but not between sessions .. | 08:06 |
| Rabiddog | DistroJockey: ah thats right, been a long time since I played with grub directly | 08:06 |
| snowveil | k, time to see if anything changed I guess | 08:06 |
| zionpsyfer | Viper111: you might want to check your route? only route the subnet you need to get to through VPN through the interface. | 08:06 |
| mmmiiikkkeee | zvacet: I have tryed to do sudo apt-get install --reinstall hal before and that does not work either. | 08:06 |
| TooFly | patifa: gotcha | 08:06 |
| flemnos | zcat[1]: true. | 08:07 |
| darkcrab | i do love xp for so many reasons, but one thing that annoys me is that every time you install something you get a new startup item. | 08:07 |
| tech0007 | snowveil: you'll get the hang of it :-D | 08:07 |
| darkcrab | and you have to keep that startup item for your new program to work | 08:07 |
| LSD|Ninja | Is their somethign wrong with my system or has Hardy received no updates at all yet? | 08:07 |
| barana | ere4si: im a ubuntu noob how do i envoke nautilus to check it? | 08:07 |
| darkcrab | ok back to topic | 08:07 |
| helai | it is the interesting point of xp | 08:07 |
| patifa | TooFly: Only 50 KB/sec for a 23 MB document, and I know I can pull more than 50 KB/sec. | 08:07 |
| babolat | LSD|Ninja: no updates as far as i know | 08:07 |
| darkcrab | what do you mean barana | 08:07 |
| Shadow420 | zcat[1] I have a p3 1Ghz with 512MB and XP/Ubuntu run just fine | 08:07 |
| ere4si | barana: open your /home folder and see if the cd is listed in the right pane | 08:07 |
| TooFly | patifa: Bad mobo = bad company = bad server :) | 08:07 |
| DistroJockey | mmmiiikkkeee, seems to be having an issue with your network card driver | 08:07 |
| bullgard4 | LSD|Ninja: No, there were no updates yet. | 08:08 |
| DistroJockey | Rabiddog, :) | 08:08 |
| zvacet | mmmiiikkkeee : that is all I can think of,sorry | 08:08 |
| yrlnry | Something on my system is causing disk seeking once per second. The noise is bugging me. How can I track down what it is? | 08:08 |
| * Rabiddog growls at ubuntu kernel and dmraid | 08:08 | |
| zcat[1] | Shadow420: yeah, the ram makes all the difference | 08:08 |
| snowveil | tech0007: mounting it as NTFS appears to only duplicate what is already mounted as SFS | 08:08 |
| mojoe430 | whats up | 08:08 |
| n2diy | yrlnry: top | 08:08 |
| LSD|Ninja | Ah, OK. Was getting a bit woried there :P | 08:08 |
| darkcrab | i have 1.26 gb of ram | 08:08 |
| desneedy_ | Rabiddog: I remember the user passwd, just forgot the root passwd | 08:08 |
| yrlnry | n2diy: I already stared at top; it didn't help. | 08:08 |
| aLeSD | hi all -... someone could tell me how to start awn on login ? | 08:08 |
| yrlnry | n2diy: Unless top has a sort-by-disk-activity option or something. | 08:09 |
| babolat | yrlnry: disk seeking /? | 08:09 |
| tech0007 | snowveil: so its already mount before you did sudo mount -t nfs? | 08:09 |

| TooFly | I'm sorry, someone linked me to the Alternate (non-graphic) installation of Ubuntu, but I lost the link. Could I get it again? | 08:09 |
| snowveil | yes | 08:09 |
| ere4si | barana: sorry - left pane... | 08:09 |
| snowveil | but on sda | 08:09 |
| darkcrab | ah my graphics card sucks | 08:09 |
| snowveil | there should be another partition | 08:09 |
| darkcrab | thats the only thing about this sytsem that really bugs me | 08:09 |
| yrlnry | babolat: I can hear the disk head moving, and the disk activity LED is blinking once per second. | 08:09 |
| patifa | http://releases.ubuntu.com/releases/8.04/ <-- It's on that page, TooFly. | 08:09 |
| Slart | !alternate | TooFly | 08:09 |
| tech0007 | snowveil: so which partition is missing? | 08:09 |
| ubottu | TooFly: The Alternate CD is a classical text-mode install CD. It supports a wider range of hardware than the !LiveCD, and can also be used as an upgrade CD. Look for the alternate checkbox on the Ubuntu download page - See also !minimal - Torrent at http://releases.ubuntu.com/8.04/ubuntu-8.04-alternate-i386.iso.torrent | 08:09 |
| babolat | !log | Toofly | 08:09 |
| ubottu | Toofly: Official channel logs can be found at http://irclogs.ubuntu.com/ - For LoCo channels, http://logs.ubuntu-eu.org/freenode/ | 08:09 |
| snowveil | the drive is 200gb (well, 188 or so really), and the only visible partition is 108GB of that | 08:09 |
| adam7 | desneedy_, if you can use sudo you can do sudo passwd root to change the root password | 08:09 |
| DistroJockey | mmmiiikkkeee, doesn't look like a very happy dmesg at all :( | 08:09 |
| TooFly | thank you | 08:09 |
| gina_ | hi.. im frustrated can someone help me.. i had to reinstall ubunto on my macbook pro and now i cant found the site with the instructions to install the wireless! | 08:09 |

| tech0007 | snowveil: from the looks of it, it seems you did not make full use of sda when you did th emanul aprtitioning | 08:10 |
| Rabiddog | gina_: when I get frustrated I take a long break and go out and party :) | 08:10 |
| babolat | yrlnry: check your SysMon if there are processes that's trying to access that HD | 08:10 |
| yrlnry | n2diy: Could be something like that. I'll see if it continues tomorrow. | 08:10 |
| ere4si | barana: you have a drive that won't read then... | 08:10 |
| kane77 | HermanChess, if you have separate partition for it | 08:10 |
| snowveil | is there a way to remedy that? | 08:10 |
| LSD|Ninja | gina_: there's an Intel Mac page on the wiki | 08:10 |
| barana | ere4si: but when i try to open it tells me it can mount selected volume | 08:10 |

| zcat[1] | brb | 08:11 |
| snowveil | the partitions were already established before I installed ubuntu | 08:11 |

| barana | ere4si: sorry canT mount volume | 08:11 |
| gina_ | someone sent me another one | 08:11 |
| snowveil | I have about 70GB on sda, plus the other 100 or so that's visible :-/ | 08:11 |
| gina_ | very easy to install! | 08:11 |
| gina_ | for the macbook pro! | 08:11 |
| gina_ | i dont remember the name of the site :( | 08:11 |
| darkcrab | i keep forgetting these new macbooks are intel | 08:11 |
| ere4si | barana: 'cause it can't read the cd 'cause it's broken | 08:11 |
| tech0007 | snowveil: not sure, but did you ask if you can use all 200G of that hard drive | 08:12 |
| tech0007 | ? | 08:12 |
| HermanChess | kane77: I thought it was going to be a new feature .... ah well | 08:12 |
| gina_ | that site rules!!! | 08:12 |
| babolat | darkcrab: i know.. aint that weird | 08:12 |
| gina_ | and help me install my wireless very easy :() | 08:12 |
| gina_ | but well | 08:12 |
| darkcrab | it totally is man | 08:12 |
| yrlnry | babolat: I don't see anything relevant in SysMon. | 08:12 |
| gina_ | i will search more | 08:12 |
| desneedy_ | adam7: thanks, I changed the root passwd with sudo. Great. | 08:12 |
| barana | ere4si: so even if xp on another partition when booted on the same machine reads ? | 08:12 |
| snowveil | not that I recall, tech0007 | 08:12 |
| === roxahris is now known as roxandAWAY | ||
| LSD|Ninja | gina_: yeah, 7.10 went onto my MacBook without too much hassle. Having to compile madwifi to get the wireless going though... forget it. Ubuntu was removed shortly after that :) | 08:12 |
| Carbonflux | so if the routing tables are in the kernel how does it know how to restore them after a reboot ? | 08:13 |
| DistroJockey | mmmiiikkkeee, check out those launchpad bugs I listed for possible fixes | 08:13 |
| Carbonflux | they must be in a file | 08:13 |

| desneedy_ | xubuntu seems to slow on my 256m ram laptop. | 08:13 |
| nickthorley | lsd|ninja: if you dont mind me asking what was it about linux that tore you away from mac osx - i can understand windows but would have thought os x very good? | 08:14 |
| ere4si | barana: you've tried lately? | 08:14 |
| desneedy_ | Is there any way to speed it up? | 08:14 |
| TooFly | patifa: I finished downloading the manual - perhaps you'll see the genius that is ECS's BIOS setup. | 08:14 |
| DistroJockey | mmmiiikkkeee, sounds like it, yeah. Maybe a re-install of those. (but not sure that will work or help) | 08:14 |
| snowveil | Gparted shows 185.17 used out of 186.31GB in one single partition | 08:14 |
| TooFly | I swear there is no on-board VGA option. | 08:14 |
| Hamled | how would I determine what brand of touchpad I have? For some reason it has become really sensitive, and the turning off "enable mouse clicks with the touchpad" in the mouse configuration app is not working | 08:14 |
| DistroJockey | mmmiiikkkeee, I'm assuming you upgraded? | 08:14 |
| snowveil | however, the GUI in ubuntu shows the mounted /sda as only having a total capacity of 107GB | 08:14 |
| tech0007 | snowveil: gparted would should unused or unparitioned space | 08:14 |
| snowveil | hum | 08:15 |
| Rabiddog | TooFly: gigabyte has a key combo that enables advanced features, although I doubt ECS does that | 08:15 |
| mmmiiikkkeee | DistroJockey: yes I upgraded | 08:15 |

| TooFly | Time to try the alternate installation? | 08:16 |
| manhthienbkhn | helo | 08:16 |
| patifa | TooFly: It stinks. PCI / PnP Setup might be it, but it's also clear this was all translated, so who knows how accurate the translation was. | 08:16 |
| DistroJockey | mmmiiikkkeee, 90% sure :) | 08:16 |

| babolat | xintron: my take wud be gparted | 08:16 |
| TooFly | Ok, I'll give it a shot. | 08:16 |
| nickthorley | lsd|ninja: no thats fair enough - suppose you could use a vm anyway - what do you do for a living are you a designer hence a mac or just prefer the hardware and os | 08:16 |
| xintron | babolat: How big for home and how big for the rest? | 08:17 |
| TooFly | Do you know what "Allocate IRQ to PCI VGA" means? | 08:17 |
| ere4si | barana: can you paste the /etc/fstab file ? | 08:17 |
| TooFly | or what is IRQ? | 08:17 |

| Rabiddog | tijn: ctrl -? | 08:18 |

| ikonia | TooFly: depends on your ram, disk space and how you use the system | 08:30 |
| patifa | HitMan: Though it's GNOME/KDE as the really popular ones. xfce is almost a special case for being really lightweight and fast (and thus running on older hardware better) | 08:30 |

| HitMan | I dont have physical access, only virual. through all means | 08:54 |
| ikonia | HitMan: ok, so why do you want the desktop products installed ? | 08:54 |

| TooFly | I am installing Ubuntu, installation is stuck at 82% (Configuring apt, Scanning the mirror)... any help? | 08:55 |
| cartman|office | ok I did a stupid thing and did s/hardy/inteprid in my sources list and did a apt-get dist-upgrade | 08:55 |
| zvacet | sinzmanual : sudo apt-get update | 08:55 |
| denysonique | HitMan: you want to run ff on an other rremote machine? | 08:55 |

| cartman|office | is there a way to go back to hardy? | 08:55 |
| gharz | thanks... i'll check. | 08:55 |
| saschahl | aaronp: maybe you just have too many kernels installed | 08:55 |
| ikonia | HitMan: use the alternative cd as DistroJockey suggested then | 08:55 |
| bazhang | TooFly: let it run | 08:55 |
| ikonia | HitMan: it will install a read to go desktop for you | 08:55 |
| sinzmanual | igot that problem after sudo apt-get update | 08:55 |
| HitMan | ikonia: how do I run it? | 08:55 |
| ere4si | TooFly: give it a few minutes | 08:55 |
| TooFly | Any idea on how long? It's been about 10 min | 08:55 |
| TooFly | ok | 08:55 |
| ikonia | HitMan: the same way you run the server install | 08:55 |
| ikonia | HitMan: download the cd | 08:55 |
| HitMan | then? | 08:55 |
| zvacet | sinzmanual : did you try to change server | 08:56 |
| ikonia | HitMan: install it, the same way you installed the sever install | 08:56 |
| bazhang | cartman|office: there is no intrepid | 08:56 |
| HitMan | I didn't | 08:56 |
| HitMan | The host did | 08:56 |
| ikonia | HitMan: you didn't install the server ? | 08:56 |

| aaronp | saschahl, bazhang: Turns out there was an initrd.img-2.6.22-14-generic.bak file wasting enough space for there to not be enough to upgrade. | 08:57 |
| HitMan | How do i run the iso image? | 08:57 |
| TooFly | so i pressed ctrl+alt+f1, how do i get back to the gui? | 08:57 |
| DistroJockey | HitMan, read link :) | 08:57 |
| HitMan | ok | 08:57 |
| ikonia | HitMan: don't worry about it, you'll struggle to install it as you already have a running os | 08:57 |
| bazhang | ctrl alt f7 TooFly | 08:57 |

| ikonia | thecarp: they are just gnu tools, things like "binutils" as a package or "fileutils" | 09:05 |

| Jack3 | will my install ever finish? it has been sitting at 94% configuring hardware for 30 minutes now..? | 09:07 |
| ikonia | HitMan: in your senario, it doesn't matter as a.) your using virtual kit b.) your locked into the server os | 09:08 |
| bazhang | TooFly: the configuring apt will and then continue | 09:08 |

| TooFly | bazhang: Ballpark time on how long this will take? | 09:08 |
| HitMan | ikonia: I am not locked. I can use sudo apt-get to get desktop | 09:08 |
| ikonia | HitMan: yes, but thats still the server os | 09:08 |
| HitMan | ikonia: so? | 09:08 |
| DistroJockey | CarlF1, and your fan has been like that for 2 years?! | 09:08 |
| bazhang | TooFly: hard to say; maybe go make a cup of hot chocolate | 09:09 |
| ikonia | HitMan: so thats why I'm saying it doesn't apply in your senario, your locked into the server OS | 09:09 |
| TooFly | Haha, alright. | 09:09 |
| kane77 | blame, and you will also need to do this as a root: echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward | 09:09 |
| sajt | Hello | 09:09 |
| Jack3 | omnz0r, are you serious? | 09:09 |
| DistroJockey | CarlF1, not that 60c is critical | 09:09 |
| blame | thanks kane77 I'll try and let you know what happened. | 09:09 |
| HitMan | ikonia: I am not. I can use sudo apt-get. then startx. then install NX server./ then use NX client to access it | 09:09 |
| bazhang | Jack3: what is it doing? installing grub part been reached yet? | 09:09 |
| omnz0r | Jack3: Normally it takes about 30 mins to do the entire install, so it sound like it froze | 09:09 |
| ikonia | HitMan: yes thats the Server OS - you can't change the core os | 09:09 |
| bullgard4 | Nautilus lists a type for every filename it displays. Where can I find a list of the elements of the set of types that are available in this Nautilus column? | 09:10 |
| HitMan | ikonia: just tell me the differnce betwenn CD install and apt-get install I will face? | 09:10 |
| CarlF1 | DistroJockey: i think it got worse - todays thought is that the thermo broke, and it dosn't think it is hot enough for the fan - but 60 should have turned it on i would think | 09:10 |
| ikonia | HitMan: there isn't any | 09:10 |
| Jack3 | mouse still works and such and cd is still spinnging but nothing seems to be working | 09:10 |
| CarlF1 | DistroJockey: i think the fan broke | 09:10 |
| ikonia | HitMan: it's the same package | 09:10 |
| DistroJockey | CarlF1, possible | 09:10 |
| HitMan | ikonia: so I WILL see the desltop if I use apt-get? | 09:10 |
| kane77 | blame, actually you can append that last line I written (echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward) into that script and run it all as root... | 09:10 |
| omnz0r | Jack3: try burn a new cd or something | 09:10 |
| sajt | I upgraded from gusty to hardy but mysound is not working. I have a gigabyte motherboard with a realtek alc889A sound. How can I make it? | 09:10 |
| Jack3 | bazhang, im not sure, but i do know i chose XFS for my root and it said GRUB might not work but didnt give an option for lilo | 09:10 |
| omnz0r | it sounds weird | 09:10 |
| gogeta | CarlF1 disable acpi let your bios handel it they should run at 100% | 09:10 |
| ikonia | HitMan: no - you will get A desktop on the server OS, not the desktop OS install | 09:10 |
| DistroJockey | CarlF1, if sothing changed software wise, then it is highly likely the fan has failed | 09:11 |
| DistroJockey | nothing^ | 09:11 |
| HitMan | ikonia: I ill se the desktop. do everything that can be done on a desktop? | 09:11 |
| sajt | I do not find any sound support in the kernel | 09:11 |
| gogeta | DistroJockey sudden failers are to rare | 09:11 |
| bazhang | Jack3: any particular reason to choose xfs instead of ext3? was it for the speed? :) | 09:11 |
| ikonia | HitMan: most things, but as your using virtual hardware it won't call you issues | 09:11 |
| gogeta | DistroJockey it woulda been making alot of noise befor hand | 09:11 |
| DistroJockey | gogeta, with a fan in a 2 year old laptop? | 09:12 |
| gogeta | DistroJockey yep | 09:12 |
| DistroJockey | gogeta, maybe, maybe not | 09:12 |
| Jack3 | bazhang, yes ;) but you dont think that is why this is hpapening? | 09:12 |
| HitMan | ikonia: but it WILL run firefox and bittorrent? | 09:12 |
| ikonia | HitMan: yes | 09:12 |
| HitMan | ikonia: thats all I want from it | 09:12 |
| ikonia | HitMan: you'll be fine | 09:12 |
| DistroJockey | gogeta, alot of dust could just slow it to a crawl then stop it | 09:12 |
| HitMan | ikonie: you worried me for nothing in particualr | 09:12 |

| gogeta | DistroJockey that woulda straned the abring making noise | 09:12 |
| bazhang | Jack3: possible though difficult to say without trying ext3 and another burned disk with the md5sum matched against the iso file | 09:13 |

| kane77 | blame, what does "sudo iptables -L" tell you? and waht about "cat /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward" ? | 09:16 |
| napnap_ | chazco: have you the java plugin working ? | 09:17 |

| chazco | napnap_ - No idea... it just crashes when i try to enter a URL, scroll a page... close FF3... | 09:17 |
| bazhang | jack3 that is unlikely | 09:17 |
| ikonia | napnap_: the java plugin is a real effort with 64bit | 09:17 |
| ikonia | napnap_: what class is failing ? | 09:17 |
| maek | sudo apt get install firefox2.0 | 09:17 |
| chazco | maek - Tried that approach, caused issues with some other stuff | 09:17 |
| DistroJockey | maek, that would be sudo apt-get install firefox-2 | 09:18 |
| blame | kane77: It worked!!! I just re-executed the script you recommended and it actually worked. Thank you so much! | 09:18 |
| napnap_ | ikonia: all...specific class of the applet, not inner java class (the first attempt) | 09:18 |

| kane77 | blame, no problem ;) | 09:18 |
| shtewe | they say that you should wait a month after the release to update because of bugs | 09:19 |
| fudus4 | how do i add apps to the quck launch thing? the one which starts off with firefox evolution | 09:19 |
| ikonia | napnap_: can you just use the jvm to do say -version | 09:19 |
| manifest_ | arelis: i see no problem why shouldnt work | 09:19 |
| chazco | Also having the font issue on Hardy, but only on one PC (identical installs) | 09:19 |
| ikonia | napnap_: sounds like it's not got all the 32bit stuff it wants | 09:19 |
| shtewe | not like vista, u have to wait 2 years until it will be almost as good as xp | 09:19 |
| magnetron | milos_: i installed gnome-bluetooth and gnome-vfs-obexftp to connect my N95 in gutsy. i also had to set the gnome-obex-server to autostart | 09:19 |
| Heston | Arelis_, although i recommend you research what you buy a fair but, that laptop should have no problem running ubuntu | 09:19 |
| napnap_ | ikonia: Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_06-b02) | 09:19 |
| manifest_ | how do i open an mp3 player from terminate? | 09:19 |
| ikonia | napnap_: can you build a hello world class ? | 09:20 |
| magnetron | manifest_: it's usually in the /media folder | 09:20 |
| zvacet | manifest_ : try type player name | 09:20 |
| napnap_ | ikonia: I will try... a moment. | 09:20 |
| ikonia | napnap_: apologies this is overkill | 09:20 |
| magnetron | manifest_: wait, are you referring to the software or a USB hardware? | 09:21 |
| blame | kane77: slight problem. Routing at some poing seem work, though the DNS look ups are failing. Skype connected (which uses direct IP) but it cannot resolve domain names on the target computer. Where do I dig up? | 09:21 |
| Jack3 | bazhang, my iso passed md5sum | 09:21 |
| manifest_ | magnetron: software | 09:21 |
| bazhang | Jack3: now try burning at a lower speed if possible then run diskcheck when you boot up | 09:22 |
| kane77 | blame, do you have the dns set up on the second computer? | 09:22 |
| Arelis_ | Hello everybody. I found a nice laptop, will it work with Ubuntu? here are the specs: http://www.azerty.nl/producten/product_detail/?ID=35389&GROEP_ID=156&TAB=specificaties | 09:22 |
| magnetron | manifest_: you cans start a graphical mp3 player from terminal. is this what you want? | 09:22 |
| napnap_ | ikonia: I don't javac , I only the jre for the moment | 09:22 |
| ikonia | napnap_: ah | 09:22 |
| gogeta | Arelis_ i probly can find better | 09:22 |
| manifest_ | yes, a program that plays mp3-format sounds | 09:23 |
| gogeta | :P | 09:23 |
| milos_ | magnetron: i am always starting gnome-obex-server manualy. Is there any difference, I mean it should be the same. I also have gnome-bluetooth and gnome-vfs-obexftp installed | 09:23 |
| gogeta | Arelis_ thats pretty sad | 09:23 |
| blame | kane77: I am using static routing, did not install dhcpd and on the target box (XP) the DNS is set to be the ubunut's gateway (192.168.0.1), should I try and place the my ISP's NS on the target box? | 09:23 |
| jmg | hi all | 09:24 |
| magnetron | milos_: i just find it more convenient. did you repair the phone after you installed hardy? | 09:24 |
| jmg | freevo is broken in hardy | 09:24 |
| DistroJockey | !broken | jmg | 09:24 |
| ubottu | Factoid broken not found | 09:24 |
| DistroJockey | :( | 09:24 |
| kane77 | blame, yes I'm having that set up and am using ISP's dns on the second box | 09:24 |
| magnetron | jmg: ok, would you please consider filing a bug at launchpad? | 09:24 |
| jmg | magnetron: not until i can fix it | 09:25 |
| mymines | 大家好！ | 09:25 |
| Hejknarneeeeee | Any1 here having wow on wine working in the 8.04 ? | 09:25 |
| artti | I have problem with file rights. I have game under in home folder, how i do that other users can play it. | 09:25 |
| magnetron | jmg: filing the bug will give some publicity to the problem and speed up the process of fixing it | 09:25 |
| zionpsyfer | Hejknarneeeeee: Works well here. PulseAudio with it is nice, finally have music, game sounds and voice chat | 09:26 |
| jmg | also launchpad is too slow to report any bugs today | 09:26 |
| jmg | magnetron: doubt it | 09:26 |
| Jack3 | bazhang, right now im checking the cd with defects, that shoudl tell right? | 09:26 |
| Hejknarneeeeee | zionpsyfer, do you have an ati card ? | 09:26 |
| milos_ | magnetron: no, i didn't chage nothing on the phone. I did a upgrade from Gutsy, maybe upgrade have make some problems, i will try now to put gnome-obex-server in Sessions | 09:26 |
| zionpsyfer | Hejknarneeeeee: Nay, I have a geforce | 09:26 |
| bazhang | Jack3: sorry ; yes that would be a good idea | 09:27 |
| magnetron | jmg: launchpad is also an effective way on getting YOUR fix into ubuntu fast | 09:27 |
| blame | kane77: as expected ISP DNSs worked on target box. Last question, do I need to execute the iptable script everytime I boot ot is it permanent? | 09:27 |
| zvacet | Jack3 : if Cd is good go for install | 09:27 |
| Hejknarneeeeee | zionpsyfer, does your minimap work ? | 09:27 |
| bazhang | !cn | mymines | 09:27 |
| ubottu | mymines: For Ubuntu help in Chinese 您可以访问中文频道： #ubuntu-cn 或者 #ubuntu-tw 或者 #ubuntu-hk | 09:27 |
| zionpsyfer | Hejknarneeeeee: Indeed. I haven't run into any weird issues yet besides my mouse feeling very very slightly sluggish | 09:28 |
| magnetron | milos_: the pairing needs to be ok on both sides, check if your phone is in the list: right click the B in the notification area and see if gnome knows about it | 09:28 |
| Jack3 | zvacet, i did already but it just sat at configuring hardware 94% for like 40minutes lol | 09:28 |
| bazhang | zvacet: this is round 2 :) | 09:28 |
| Jack3 | bazhang, it passed with no defects :( | 09:28 |
| Hejknarneeeeee | zionpsyfer: ok, all my ingame text gets bugged when i switch between outdoor and indoor areas | 09:28 |
| bazhang | Jack3: dont feel bad; one user in here took 34 times before it worked | 09:29 |
| Hejknarneeeeee | zionpsyfer: when i have the minimap enabled | 09:29 |
| Jack3 | haha ouch | 09:29 |
| zionpsyfer | Hejknarneeeeee: lame. =( Maybe a firegl bug? | 09:29 |

| phoenix180 | reetings everyone! I managed to start re-installing kubuntu after messing it up by trying to install 7.10 but at around 82%, the install actually froze. I restarted the PC and now it looks like part of kubuntu installed. My question is this: can I "update" kubuntu to just install whatever didn't get to finish installing? | 09:30 |
| Jack3 | hopefully me too | 09:30 |
| Hejknarneeeeee | may be.. indeed | 09:30 |
| manifest_ | how do i delete mplayer? | 09:30 |
| Hejknarneeeeee | well i'll try to solve it | 09:30 |
| bazhang | phoenix180: that does not sound good-->best go for a fresh install | 09:30 |
| magnetron | Hejknarneeeeee: are you running wow in opengl mode? | 09:30 |
| zvacet | manifest_ : from synaptic | 09:30 |
| napnap_ | ikonia: I installed the jdk, compiled the class, then java test said me "Hello World", so it works | 09:30 |
| Jack3 | my setup right nnow has 3 ide hard drives + floppy (2 of the hdds of fujitsus 3gb and 1 is a maxtor 9gb. im installing xfs on the 9gb and swap on one of the fujitsus) | 09:30 |
| anAngel | Hello. I just installed ubuntu 8.04 and it doesn't detect my graphics adapter at all. I am using intel g33 chipset with integrated intel X3100 video. The xorg.conf file is almost empty, nothing specific about my adapter or monitor. And my screen resolution is wrong and i cant set it up to say 1280x1024 | 09:30 |
| phoenix180 | darnit!! that's what I feared..thanks bazhang | 09:31 |
| mymines | haha | 09:31 |
| Jack3 | i just removed the USB pinheaders that go to the front of the case cause i dont think i put them on correctly anyways | 09:31 |
| zionpsyfer | Hejknarneeeeee: Yep, opengl with latest winehq deb. | 09:31 |
| bazhang | phoenix180: perhaps technically possible but know way of telling how long it would hold or what was damaged | 09:31 |
| zionpsyfer | Hejknarneeeeee: You running opengl? | 09:31 |
| magnetron | anAngel: the drivers of that card are no good. ubuntu knows about your card but there's unfortunately not much to do | 09:31 |
| Hejknarneeeeee | magnetron: i have the opengl setting activated in the config.wtf file | 09:31 |
| bazhang | mymines: /j #ubuntu-cn thanks | 09:32 |
| phoenix180 | yea I am going to attempt to install it once more before sleeping. I have been fighting with it all night | 09:32 |
| ^root^ | anyone? | 09:32 |
| Hejknarneeeeee | and i installed wine yesterday from scratch | 09:32 |

| ArthurArchnix | Looks like rythmbox removed close to tray support back in version 0.96... anyone know how to get that back? | 09:32 |
| zvacet | manifest_ : did you try run man mplayer to see options | 09:32 |
| kane77 | blame, the way I do it is that I run it each time I boot (just save it as script somewhere and put it in rc.local) but there should be something to save your iptables and then restore them, but I'm not quite sure | 09:33 |
| Jack3 | bazhang, the cd boots into live mode fine, should i look at anything in there before trying to install again? | 09:33 |
| anAngel | magnetron: so can i do something about the resolution at least. is there any other configuration utility? i tried dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg but nothing changed | 09:33 |
| bazhang | jack3 if grub is warning about xfs, then why not go for ext3? the speed gain will not be *that* great imo | 09:33 |
| Jack3 | can i use resier instead? | 09:34 |
| magnetron | anAngel: are you confusing me with someone else? | 09:34 |
| bazhang | sure jack3 should do, but really ext3 is the best one out there | 09:34 |

| chmac | ikonia: I just thought, changing nicks to _away, and then back, is no less channel noise than logging on / off | 10:05 |
| hooer | np... so why do you want a 16 bit subnet mask? | 10:05 |
| chmac | ikonia: I have #ubuntu on my auto-join now, so every time I fire up xchat I'll create at least 2 messages... | 10:05 |

| united | i've downloaded kopete,but still can't run it though i've download it's libraries,why's that? | 10:06 |
| Carbonflux | hooer, until I set the subnet mask for the local lan to 255.255.0.0 I could not get at any 1.1 addys, only 0.1, my WAN mask is still 255.255.255.0 | 10:06 |
| hooer | should route between .0.0 and .1.0 | 10:07 |
| DistroJockey | zm, well, I guess it runs. Can't help further sorry. Don't know the program or the language. | 10:07 |
| Carbonflux | well, in windows I had to change to subnet mask to get it to use both the 0.1 and 1.1 subnets | 10:07 |
| end-user | Totem Movie Player question: When using the firefox-plugin, and, say, listening to audio, there is a rewind/fast forward bar at the bottom that I've never seen work, inside the browser. You can pause, so I'm assuming that means it is being cached. Why can't you rewind/fast forward: is this a bug or just only a part of a feature that has yet to be implemented? | 10:07 |
| zm | it means bash: ./INSTALL: No such file or directory | 10:07 |
| Chapai | how do i get the lines out of my video its driving me out of my mad | 10:08 |
| end-user | Chapai: Are you using gnash? | 10:08 |
| RandomCake | Hi, I can't boot to any OS, the Grub settings appear to be correct, but I get an error saying the partition doesn't exist when I select an OS, anyone any idea what's going on? | 10:08 |
| hooer | oh i meant use a router, i.e. a hardware one with 2 nics, one for .1.0 one for .0.0, or do it with virtual machine software routers :P | 10:08 |
| DistroJockey | zm, as I said INSTALL is the thing you want to run, may be named different (remember it's case sensitive) | 10:08 |
| Chapai | no idea what that is end-user | 10:08 |
| united | i've downloaded kopete,but still can't run it though i've download it's libraries,why's that? | 10:09 |
| bazhang | united: downloaded? why not install from repos | 10:09 |
| hischild | Chapai, please describe the situation. There are a couple dozen situations where you can use video which have different causes. | 10:09 |
| zm | yes | 10:09 |
| united | yes,i mean download through synaptic | 10:09 |
| zm | you may tell me how to install the package | 10:10 |
| bazhang | united try alt f2 kopete | 10:10 |
| DistroJockey | zm, also as I said, all good packages have a decent readme type file | 10:10 |
| Chapai | all my videos (flash, vlc) has lines sorta jittering very noticable when panning | 10:10 |
| zm | the instruction says type './configure' and then type 'make' | 10:10 |
| end-user | Chapai: gnash is the free (non-restricted) version of Flash. It is installed in Gutsy by default, but wasn't installed in my Hardy. Anyway, gnash isn't fully perfected yet, and for example, youtube videos had lines in them. You might want to use flash. To check if you are using Gnash, start by just right clicking the video you are trying to watch, and see if it brings up adobe flash dialog or gnash dialog | 10:10 |
| hischild | zm, if the instruction says so, then do so. | 10:11 |
| DistroJockey | zm, yes, that is common | 10:11 |
| zm | but when i finish typing 'make', it says 'no such a common | 10:11 |
| milos_ | can't send files from Nokia N70 to Hardy, anybody? (from pc -> phone is working) | 10:11 |
| Carbonflux | hooer, this is what I plan on doing http://lartc.org/howto/lartc.rpdb.multiple-links.html but first I need to get past just being able to talk to both routers, which should work but is not | 10:11 |
| zm | i stopped at step 2 | 10:11 |
| DistroJockey | zm, sudo apt-get build-essentials | 10:11 |
| end-user | Chapai: and if you need help getting flash, I can help you do with that too, but first I just want to figure out if gnash is your problem | 10:12 |
| DistroJockey | zm, do that first then try again | 10:12 |
| hischild | zm, that's not an error that make throws when configure was run properly. Can you pastebin the output from ./configure? ( DistroJockey ) | 10:12 |
| CRASH69 | have been any update in 804? I ask 'cause since installing I have not get any (for some reason I considerer that odd, lol) | 10:12 |
| hischild | CRASH69, no it's solid. Don't have any updates either. | 10:12 |
| bazhang | CRASH69: none so far here | 10:12 |
| Chapai | its not gnash end-user it happens with every video, the best i can describe is a very low frame rate with videos hischild end-user | 10:12 |
| Carbonflux | the frustrating part is that I am sure someone around here knows the answer but I am not able to explain the issue properly | 10:12 |
| roxahris | hey | 10:13 |
| roxahris | the search feature didn't find a file | 10:13 |
| roxahris | do I have to set it to recurse subdirectories | 10:13 |
| roxahris | is there an option for that? | 10:13 |
| zm | sudo apt-get build-essentials is an error common | 10:13 |
| bazhang | zm build-essential no 's' | 10:13 |
| hischild | Chapai, have you tried to use a different video player? like vlc? what gfx card do you have? | 10:14 |
| end-user | Chapai: Sorry :( if you are already using Flash, then I don't know what that problem is. I had the problem with Gnash, so I thought that might be it. | 10:14 |
| robbie | xorgconfigure is missing. what package contains it? | 10:14 |
| DistroJockey | cheers bazhang , sorry zm typo | 10:14 |
| zm | yes | 10:14 |
| zm | nothing | 10:15 |
| bazhang | DistroJockey: :} | 10:15 |
| bazhang | Carbonflux: just like in that link? | 10:15 |
| hooer | i was hoping someone might know the answer to my raid question too :p | 10:15 |
| Chapai | i have hischild | 10:15 |
| DistroJockey | bazhang, just tried it here and only get build-dep as a tab complete for build | 10:15 |
| hooer | Carbon, that's great but i would do it in a virtual appliance instead of on the host system :p | 10:16 |
| zm | http://paste.ubuntu.com/9425/ this is what after i type './configure' shows | 10:16 |
| bazhang | zm sudo apt-get install build-essential | 10:16 |
| Carbonflux | bazhang, I just want to be able to ping the 192.168.1.1 addy from this machine, its something specific to this machine, the problem is really simple | 10:16 |
| zm | well | 10:16 |
| hischild | DistroJockey, build-dep is a switch from apt-get. build-essential is a meta package. | 10:16 |
| Carbonflux | hooer, yes that works fine | 10:16 |
| Chapai | is there an app that registers frame rate? | 10:16 |
| Carbonflux | hooer, I use virtualbox | 10:16 |
| hooer | orly :p | 10:16 |
| DistroJockey | hischild, ahh, thanks :) | 10:16 |
| mind | has anyone else had the problem that clicking the time/date in the taskbar leads to freezing the whole taskbar? | 10:16 |
| Carbonflux | hooer, but if I don't have basic connectivity its pointless :) | 10:16 |
| thyko | does grub work with XFS yet? | 10:16 |
| hooer | pointless.. but cool | 10:17 |
| Carbonflux | hooer, 8.04 inside a VM inside Windows can get at all the addys fine | 10:17 |
| bazhang | thyko: apparently it is problematic still | 10:17 |
| DistroJockey | hischild, forgot the install part as usual ;) | 10:17 |
| hooer | hmm | 10:17 |
| musa | i upgraded last night from gutcy to herdy, everything went well except their is no sound. | 10:17 |
| Carbonflux | anyway, this problem is hypersimple | 10:17 |
| Carbonflux | and someone here knows the answer | 10:17 |
| hischild | Carbonflux, then ask so we may answer | 10:17 |
| Carbonflux | but I am giving up because I can't explain it | 10:17 |
| Carbonflux | :) | 10:17 |
| hooer | you might have to whip out the traffic capture and see waht's going on | 10:18 |
| RandomCake | does anyone have any idea why Grub would be failing to boot Ubuntu when the settings all look right? :S | 10:18 |
| === nico_|gone is now known as nico_ | ||
| hischild | DistroJockey, np | 10:18 |
| thyko | bazhang: dang, i'll use lilo then, but its sloooow! | 10:18 |
| magnetron | RandomCake: because the settings isn't right? | 10:18 |
| bazhang | RandomCake: because it only 'looks' right? | 10:18 |
| hischild | RandomCake, they may look ok, but perhaps they're still wrong? | 10:18 |
| hooer | lilo is slow? | 10:18 |
| Carbonflux | hischild, I can't ping 192.168.1.1 from one linux machine, I don't know why, it works from all the other machines on the same net, same settings, same routing table | 10:18 |
| end-user | mind: While I have not yet had that problem, the time/date for me still runs sort of harshly, for example, I have added a couple international times (the new feature) and there is a big delay when bringing it up, the times start in 24:00 time instead of 12:00 time, but then go correct after a while, and sometimes the edge is cut off the edge of the screen | 10:18 |
| thyko | very | 10:18 |
| zm | and then? | 10:18 |
| hooer | how come | 10:18 |
| hischild | Carbonflux, describe the network please then :) | 10:19 |
| j0be | Carbonflux: check the netmasks... sure they are all 255.255.255.0 | 10:19 |
| DistroJockey | !grub hooer | 10:19 |
| ubottu | Factoid grub hooer not found | 10:19 |
| DistroJockey | !grub | hooer | 10:19 |
| ubottu | hooer: grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto | 10:19 |
| hooer | i mean.. doesnt the boot loader just do that, start the boot process? | 10:19 |
| hischild | !grub | hooer | 10:19 |
| thyko | hooer: it usually is, about 15 seconds to decompress the kernel | 10:19 |
| DistroJockey | hehe | 10:19 |
| Carbonflux | 255.255.255.0 does not work on any machine | 10:19 |
| Carbonflux | clearly it masks off 1.1 addys | 10:19 |
| monk | bonjour bonjour, je sais que ce doit etre une question bete mais dans la montagne de données je n'arrive pas à trouver: comment fait-on pour supprimer manuellement un disque dur dans /media à partir d'un terminal? merci | 10:19 |
| hooer | heres the weird thing, i installed 8.0.4 server from scratch and it's LILO not Grub | 10:19 |
| zm | i still cannot install | 10:19 |
| hischild | Carbonflux, you're using virtualisation? what software did you use? | 10:19 |
| j0be | Carbonflux: it is a netmask! not an ip address | 10:20 |
| thyko | but xfs is dang fast after that | 10:20 |
| magnetron | !fr | monk | 10:20 |
| ubottu | monk: Ce canal est en anglais uniquement. Si vous avez besoin d'aide ou voulez discuter en francais, merci de rejoindre #ubuntu-fr ou #kubuntu-fr | 10:20 |
| hischild | hooer, grub does support xfs, yet the installer sometimes fails to install it thus defaults to lilo. | 10:20 |
| Carbonflux | hischild, two routers connected to one switch, one router is 192.168.0.1 the other is at 192.168.1.1 | 10:20 |
| hooer | oooh | 10:20 |
| hooer | that's why. | 10:20 |
| bazhang | zm what is gmlive-->please clarify | 10:20 |
| hischild | Carbonflux, and you get one way traffic? | 10:20 |
| hischild | !info gmlive | 10:20 |
| thyko | !xfs | 10:20 |
| ubottu | xfs is a high-performance journaling filesystem originally developped by Silicon Graphics for their IRIX OS. It is now fully supported by Linux so you can install Ubuntu on it if you wish. More info at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/XFS | 10:20 |
| hooer | i setup my raid arrays with xfs using the installer, so it would have been that? | 10:20 |
| milos_ | magnetron: not woking :( | 10:20 |
| monk | ubottu, oups, excuse me... | 10:20 |
| Carbonflux | I can't keep explaining this over and over, everyone keeps making it more complex heh | 10:20 |
| IntangibleLiquid | I set the laptop to hibernate when the battery runs down. But it just goes blank and shuts down unexpectedly a few seconds later. What is wrong? | 10:21 |
| DistroJockey | hooer, most likely | 10:21 |
| Carbonflux | thanks for trying tho heh | 10:21 |
| RandomCake | well, bazhang, hischild, I've checked what drives there are, hda and hdb are both hard drives, so grub should be counting them both, the partition Ubuntu is on is hdb5, so it should be (hd1,4) and windows is on hdb1, so that should be (hd1,0), yes? :S | 10:21 |
| hooer | ok good to know | 10:21 |
| magnetron | Carbonflux: if the netmask is 255.255.255.0 , the first three parts of their respective IP adress has to be identical | 10:21 |
| hooer | when's ZFS support coming? :) | 10:21 |
| zm | just like sopcast | 10:21 |
| Carbonflux | magnetron, right, which won't work if I am routing from 192.168.0.1 to 192.168.1.1 | 10:21 |
| DistroJockey | hooer, for more control, you can Esc out of the boot/install screen and type expert at the prompt | 10:21 |
| roxahris | Question | 10:22 |
| === c1|freaky_ is now known as c1|freaky | ||
| roxahris | Err, nothing | 10:22 |
| BadElvis | hi, does anybody know how to disable the autoscan of rhythmbox? | 10:22 |
| j0be | Carbonflux: whatev! I was assuming you had a simple basic network. Using two routers gets you into routing troubles (hence routers) | 10:22 |
| bazhang | zm do you have a better description? would it be helpful to talk in #ubuntu-cn ? | 10:22 |
| Carbonflux | thats not it at all j0be | 10:22 |
| hooer | i dont't really need more control, it's a simple thing - i replaced a dead driev in my RAID1 array, but the replacement can't boot by itself when I test | 10:22 |
| Carbonflux | its just a device | 10:22 |
| hischild | RandomCake, sounds like solid theory. But it sometimes also throws in the cd player, mixes up partitions, and also note that hdb5 is an extended partition which may also screw things up. I suggest you get the supergrub disc and fix grub with that. | 10:22 |
| Carbonflux | I want to get on its website form linux | 10:22 |
| Carbonflux | it works in windows np | 10:22 |
| j0be | Carbonflux: yes it is... anyway. draw a diagram somewhere and post it, so you have something to talk by | 10:23 |
| zm | well, it a net tv | 10:23 |
| DistroJockey | hooer, ahh, not my area sorry. | 10:23 |
| sixtyby3 | Hello all, I need some help with getting a Broadcom 94311MCG Wifi card to work with Hardy 8.04 | 10:23 |
| hooer | Carbonflux, have you tried adding a manual route? | 10:23 |
| Carbonflux | j0be, thanks for thinking about it, I don't want to waste your time :) | 10:23 |
| j0be | Carbonflux: I bet the windows machine is on the same side as your website and your linux behind the 2nd router. | 10:23 |
| Carbonflux | hooer, in theory, I am not sure it worked | 10:23 |
| napnap_ | whart can be the reason to obtain all the time "class not found" with the 32 bits java 6 plugin on firefox 32 bits on hardy x64 with CLASSPATH and JAVA_HOME set ? | 10:23 |

| Carbonflux | something is messed up in the linux box is all | 10:24 |
| aLeSD | mmm ... does skype use qt4 library ? | 10:24 |
| Carbonflux | its something simple | 10:24 |
| hooer | did you have 24 bit subnet mask originally, then change to 16? | 10:24 |
| RandomCake | okay hischild, I'll have a look at that, do you know which version is the English version? The one I downloaded last time was spanish and I couldn't understand a thing! | 10:24 |
| hooer | maybe the route table is trynig to use the gateway to get to .1.0 network | 10:25 |
| j0be | Carbonflux: which linux machine? the one you are trying to connect to your website? what is the default gateway then, where does that lead to, where is the website. | 10:25 |

| asfalt | hi all, I installed the blubuntu-theme with apt-get but it is not seen in the Appearance preferences (hardy). Has anyone suffered the same problem ??? | 10:28 |
| sixtyby3 | Thanks, I've never managed to get my Broadcom 94311MCG Wifi card to work with any Ubuntu distro till now, I was hoping that it would be resolved in hardy. | 10:29 |
| sixtyby3 | No luck so far. | 10:29 |
| Carbonflux | j0be, that is the addy of router one, I can get to its website | 10:29 |
| hooer | RAID question: 2 drives in 2 x RAID1 arrays, mdadm, one drive failed, replaced with new, created partitions, synched arrays, ran LILO to write MBR, rebooted - fine. HOWEVER, when I test with just the new drive it fails to boot. What's missing? :( | 10:29 |
| bokey | ubottu: you rascal | 10:29 |
| biabia | from what i hear wireless is greatly improved in hardy | 10:29 |
| Carbonflux | j0be, 1.1 is the other router, if I use that for a gateway I can get at its site | 10:29 |
| roxahris | less-then slash three? | 10:29 |
| sixtyby3 | But my card doesn't even show up the list of 'Restricted Drivers' | 10:29 |
| Carbonflux | j0be, but it will not route between 0.1 and 1.1 and only on this one linux box | 10:29 |
| musa | Carbon try to trace the ip address, see where the package is stopping: # tracepath 4.2.2.2 | 10:30 |
| sixtyby3 | There are a couple of posts in the forums which list steps to make my particular model work, but then, no luck so far. | 10:30 |
| Carbonflux | thank you musa :) | 10:30 |
| j0be | because the 0.1 does not know how to get to IPs that end with 1.xxx | 10:30 |
| DistroJockey | asfalt, same issue (not a very good .deb that one) | 10:30 |
| j0be | Carbonflux: or trace via a ping with # ping -R ip.addr.of.box | 10:31 |
| bazhang | http://penkin.wordpress.com/2008/03/28/ubuntu-804-broadcom-wireless/ sixtyby3 this seen yet | 10:31 |
| Carbonflux | thank you j0be | 10:31 |
| asfalt | DistroJockey ahh I see, might have to install manually, pity ;) | 10:31 |
| Carbonflux | the frustrating part is that arp can see both routers fine | 10:31 |
| thefish | Carbonflux, you could also just add a route to your machine there: route add net 192.168.1.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 gw 192.168.1.1 | 10:32 |
| * Scrounch_ is now away: off | 10:32 | |
| hooer | this is as far as I get in the boot process with just the new drive: http://paste.ubuntu.com/9430/ | 10:32 |
| thefish | Carbonflux, im assuming you are using /24 | 10:32 |

| dubby | hey anyone in synaptic how do i clear the history? | 10:34 |
| dutch201 | some packjages did not install but most were corrupted during donwload somehow. Redownloading it and starting do-upgrade helped on those | 10:34 |

| enis | good morning | 10:36 |
| berry_sky | bandung | 10:36 |
| sixtyby3 | @bazhang thanks, I'm checking it out. The instructions are a little different, this one uses fwcutter which I didn't have luck with in Feisty, let's see. | 10:36 |
| thefish | jatt, you can either just remove the password from the key, or write a script and add it to your startup (you can also ad a @reboot line to your crontab) | 10:36 |
| zm | after unpack, how to compile? | 10:37 |
| bazhang | !compile | zm | 10:37 |
| ubottu | zm: Compiling software from source? Read the tips at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompilingSoftware (But remember to search for pre-built !packages first) | 10:37 |
| hischild | zm, ./configure and watch if it gives you any error. also ^ | 10:37 |
| thefish | zm, ./configure - make sure it doesnt reurn errors, then make | 10:37 |
| DistroJockey | zm, if it doesn't have a good readme, why would you install it? | 10:37 |

| smmagic | Hi, everytime I connect my PSP to ubuntu it opens rhythmbox, how do I stop it from opening? | 10:38 |
| CRASH69 | robbie: /etc/X11/xorg.conf ? | 10:38 |
| osfameron | smmagic: look in System -> Preferences -> Removeable Drives and Media | 10:38 |
| smmagic | nothing is there | 10:39 |
| smmagic | I checked :P | 10:39 |
| robbie | thats the file....im guessing theres no tool to configure it then? | 10:39 |
| DistroJockey | smmagic, and in /etc/gnome/defaults.list | 10:39 |
| robbie | because my settings got mis detected | 10:39 |
| jatt | thefish: thanks for the suggestions. The problem I had trying to do it with a script is that ssh-add always seems to ask for a password interactively (if I understood ssh-add(1) correctly). What does the @reboot line on my (now empty) crontab do? | 10:39 |
| hischild | robbie, sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg ? | 10:39 |
| osfameron | smmagic: under my "Multimedia" tab there is an option "Play music files when connected" to a portable music player | 10:39 |
| musa | @foolip # sudo dpkg-reconfigure console-setup | 10:39 |
| rausb0 | jatt: but having the password for the key i a file is as good as having no password for the key | 10:39 |
| osfameron | smmagic: that's on Gutsy at least | 10:39 |
| robbie | tried that | 10:39 |
| xlink | here's a good noob question | 10:39 |
| CRASH69 | robbie: dpkg-reconfigure xserver | 10:39 |
| bazhang | robbie: sudo displayconfig-gtk for hardy | 10:39 |
| === newb is now known as newb721 | ||
| xlink | how do I delete files in /etc? | 10:39 |
| * smmagic checks | 10:39 | |
| smmagic | I did it a long time ago but I forgot how to | 10:40 |
| xlink | sudo ???? | 10:40 |
| ^root^ | xlink: why you should? | 10:40 |
| bobbyyes_ | some people know what does this problem? unable to boot - please use a kernel appropriate for your cpu | 10:40 |
| bazhang | xlink why do wish to do that?? | 10:40 |
| xlink | ok how do you delete a fil via terminal | 10:40 |
| thefish | jatt, its the same as adding a time, except it just runs on reboot :) I use it to start off simpserver for my user here | 10:40 |
| ^root^ | xlink: yes, you woul need sudo... | 10:40 |
| xlink | I added a configuration file | 10:40 |
| xlink | which i don't like anymore | 10:40 |
| xlink | affects fotn properties | 10:40 |
| hischild | xlink, sudo rm <file> but this is HIGHLY unsuggested. Also do NOT use recursive in there no matter what the reason may be. | 10:40 |
| xlink | and while not horid... | 10:40 |
| smmagic | Don't see it under preferences, osfameron | 10:40 |
| robbie | displayconfig-gtk only goes up to 800x600 | 10:40 |
| robbie | I can do more | 10:40 |
| thefish | jatt, the easiest would be to make a user who connects to the other machine, give them the least amount of access possible, and give them a no-password key | 10:40 |
| mcdiesel | xlink: sudo rm /etc/badconffile | 10:41 |
| DistroJockey | bobbyyes_, sounds like you are trying to use 64bit on a 32bit CPU | 10:41 |
| bazhang | bobbyyes_: you installed 64bit on a 32bit system? | 10:41 |
| xlink | only deleting files I added myself | 10:41 |
| CRASH69 | robbie: dpkg-reconfigure xserver.xorg *************** | 10:41 |
| dutch201 | so i do: apt-get -f dist-upgrade. it gives me WARNING: /usr/share/python-support/gedit.dirs does not exist. | 10:41 |
| xlink | so no worries there | 10:41 |
| foolip | musa: dapper doesn't have console-setup. some googling told me it's console-data, and it works now. thanks | 10:41 |
| ^root^ | xlink: search for files with the owner name as you, and delete, read man find | 10:41 |
| xlink | also thank you | 10:41 |
| dutch201 | and then Traceback (most recent call last): | 10:41 |
| dutch201 | File "/usr/sbin/update-python-modules", line 269, in <module> | 10:41 |

| zzz_ | Hello, gnash doesn't play Youtube videos... What could be wrong? | 10:41 |
| xlink | sudo rm drop and drag... | 10:41 |
| dutch201 | ow i am sorry | 10:41 |
| robbie | ill try restarting x then come back | 10:41 |
| bobbyyes_ | no, is 32 bit Ubuntu and 32 Bit CPU | 10:42 |
| jatt | thefish: I agree this seems the easier solution: use a no-password key. Actually this laptop is used only by me but I connect to many others machines through ssh. How do I remove the password from the key? You can point me to a man page ;). | 10:42 |
| bazhang | got to head out for a bit good luck to all :) | 10:42 |
| smmagic | Does anyone else know how to stop rhythmbox from opening when I connect my PSP? | 10:42 |
| DistroJockey | bobbyyes_, you have amd or intel? | 10:42 |
| mcdiesel | xlink: sudo rm 'drop and drag' (if you have spaces in your file name) | 10:42 |
| thefish | jatt, if you connect to many servers and do admin stuff, dont use a blank password | 10:42 |
| Temporar1 | alright, i'm trying to install something that requires libxml2 on Ubuntu 8.04 but it says i don't have it. it is installed though | 10:43 |
| robbie | nope, still the same thing even after running dpkg-reconfigre xserver-xorg and restarting x | 10:43 |
| bobbyyes_ | Intel CPU. PM 1.7G. Frist generation Centrino | 10:43 |
| Temporar1 | anyone know what i need to do? | 10:43 |
| robbie | still only goes up to 800x600 | 10:43 |
| CRASH69 | robbie, what is your issue? | 10:43 |
| xlink | drop and drag would have been a physical action | 10:43 |
| CRASH69 | ah ok | 10:43 |
| hischild | jatt, perhaps use something like keepassx (i probably write it wrong) so keep track of the passwords | 10:43 |
| robbie | I want to put it up to 1024x768 | 10:43 |
| xlink | not a file name | 10:43 |
| DistroJockey | bobbyyes_, what iso are you using? | 10:43 |
| jatt | thefish: hmm could be I need to find a compromise... However I don't do admin stuff on this machines. I'm just a developer so use only a user account (not root) to install software I write. | 10:43 |
| xlink | as in I dropped the file into terminal | 10:43 |
| thefish | jatt, if you are doing admin on the machines and need "proper" access, I would make a strong passphrase, then just ssh-add -t{some huge time}, you'll only need to do it once, and it means all your access is safe | 10:43 |
| CRASH69 | robbie: nvidia? | 10:43 |
| xlink | since that copy/oases the URL | 10:43 |
| robbie | yep nvidia | 10:43 |
| xlink | nvidia drivers are in synaptic now aren't they? | 10:44 |
| robbie | its a pretty new comp | 10:44 |
| CRASH69 | robbie: I have it, wait a second | 10:44 |
| xlink | I just manually installed them out of memory... | 10:44 |
| xlink | took a look in synaptic | 10:44 |
| ^root^ | I am using Ubuntu 8.04LTS. It had Fx3.0, i uninstall it and installed the 2.0.x and now i cannot install any extension, whatever i install, get, "Firefox couldnt install extension at _______ becasue unexpected installation error, Review the error console for more details. -203" any idea? | 10:44 |
| xlink | and was like... | 10:44 |
| xlink | wow that's overdue | 10:44 |
| xepra | anyone know a good way to remote desktop to ubuntu 8.04? Not through vnc tho | 10:44 |
| xepra | I am running it under xen | 10:44 |
| bobbyyes_ | DistroJockey: file name: ubuntu-8.04-server-i386.iso | 10:44 |
| xepra | and gdm won't start | 10:44 |
| thefish | jatt, problem is if someone gets that key file, they instantly have all your access without any work, and you will not know, inless you are checking your auth logs regularly | 10:44 |
| jatt | hischild: thanks will take a look at keepassx (seems it isn't in the ubuntu repositories though). | 10:45 |
| xepra | and it doesn't really have to, but I was looking at stuff like xdmcp, xephyr, etc | 10:45 |
| robbie | nvidia-cg-toolkit ? | 10:45 |
| hischild | jatt, i'm probably writing it wrong. It is in the repo's. | 10:45 |
| robbie | I did an apt-cache search for nvidia | 10:45 |
| Temporar1 | to be more specific, i'm trying to install compiz on Ubuntu 8.04 but it says it can't find libxml-2.0 even though i have it =( | 10:45 |
| jatt | hischild: dapper repos? | 10:45 |
| DistroJockey | bobbyyes_, hmm | 10:45 |

| bobbyyes_ | yeah, but i can't star my Ubuntu server. | 10:46 |

| musa | foolip: try manually editing /etc/X11/xorg look for "XkbLayout" | 10:47 |

| umbrualbert | I do I share files in Hardy | 10:49 |
| DistroJockey | asfalt, added to your report | 10:49 |
| jaffarkelshac | look for the reflections plugin and disable it | 10:49 |

| jatt | hischild: yes I will read more about it... Reading the brief description on www.keepassx.org I understand keepassx can store passwords but it's possible to make it to interact with ssh-add? My problem is that I want to avoid to run ssh-add manually once I login to my system. | 10:50 |

| smmagic | Then..but...what do I do :'( | 10:50 |
| jaffarkelshac | nv | 10:50 |
| LSD|Ninja | smmagic: that's a common thread in Hardy, stuff being dropped with no usable replacement | 10:50 |
| jaffarkelshac | look for the reflection tab gizzo | 10:51 |
| DistroJockey | asfalt, heh, I have not seen the theme you speak of, but the functionality to add it is broken for sure | 10:51 |
| smmagic | Then this is annoying me >_> | 10:51 |
| rausb0 | roxahris_: if some configure skript complains about SDL not being there, install libsdl1.2-dev | 10:51 |
| gizzo | jaffarkelshac: ok, let me see if i find it | 10:51 |
| dutch201 | can anyone give me something to try when the dit-upgrade breaks on a certain package? | 10:51 |

| asfalt | DistroJockey I have seen a few screenshots but haven't seen it all | 10:51 |
| umbrualbert | Urgently need to access winblows share | 10:51 |
| LSD|Ninja | umbrualbert: I haven't actually tried the usershare system, I'm still miffed about the old Folder Sharing control panel being relegated to the background with no real replacement :/ | 10:51 |
| asfalt | xepra I don't know I am afraid | 10:52 |
| gizzo | jaffarkelshac: i found cube reflection | 10:52 |
| roxahris_ | Thanks! | 10:52 |
| smmagic | So in turn, this means EVERYTIME I connect my PSP rhythmbox will open, LSD|Ninja | 10:52 |

| smmagic | linuxuser_xmanx, when he sets up his server window, does he press enter after he types it in | 10:52 |
| jaffarkelshac | gizzo, actually there is a reflection below that, but it does not make it opage but you can replace it with an image | 10:52 |
| LSD|Ninja | asfalt: he wants to be able to share files, not connect to shared files. Or at least that was my guess... | 10:53 |

| umbrualbert | DistroJockey:...Have you seen any updates for Hardy? | 11:00 |
| LSD|Ninja | TheBigNoob: As I said before, Gutsy hada nice control panel that let you set the resolution, refresh rate etc globally but that was dropped in Hardy it seems | 11:00 |
| rexnublr | TheBigNoob do you have an LCD? | 11:00 |
| asfalt | umbrualbert I have not seen any updates yet for Hardy | 11:00 |
| TheBigNoob | and I cant get rid of it becasue its running at a higher hertz | 11:00 |
| DistroJockey | umbrualbert, nope, none | 11:00 |
| TheBigNoob | yes I have an lcd | 11:00 |
| rexnublr | LSD|Ninja is it for GLX drivers? | 11:00 |
| TheBigNoob | I run nvidia-settings refreshrate in terminal | 11:01 |

| Temporar1 | does anyone know why my system says it can't find libxml2 when i have it for sure? | 11:01 |
| TheBigNoob | it says 85 hz | 11:01 |
| LSD|Ninja | rexnublr: it used to be in System -> Administration -> Screens and Resolution orsomething | 11:01 |
| TheBigNoob | yeah | 11:01 |
| TheBigNoob | I prefer ubuntu | 11:01 |

| Schypher_ | how do I stop autologin to gnome? | 11:01 |
| LSD|Ninja | rexnublr: it wasa night and day improvement over the crappy one in the Prefernces menu | 11:01 |
| rexnublr | LSD|Ninja ya? so it supports the GLX drivers for sure eh? | 11:02 |

| sdakak | Where do I find the universe dvd for hardy? | 11:02 |
| keegan | hi is there a packet reconstructer like eEye iris on linux ? | 11:02 |
| rausb0 | herby_: you were already told to go to the german channel | 11:03 |
| Schypher_ | OzFalcon: these options are under wrong category | 11:03 |
| OzFalcon | anyone know how to make a user login with NO password? | 11:03 |
| ikonia | sdakak: universe repos are online | 11:03 |
| LSD|Ninja | rexnublr: that's the problem, it was dropped in Hardy :/ | 11:03 |
| ikonia | OzFalcon: set the password to null ? | 11:03 |
| umbrualbert | The SMB share problem looks like a permissions problem | 11:03 |
| sdakak | ikonia: I want to download the torrent. | 11:03 |
| OzFalcon | ikonia, How? | 11:03 |
| LSD|Ninja | OzFalcon: repeating the question every 5 minutes isn't a way to get on a channels good side ;) | 11:03 |
| rexnublr | when ever I install ubuntu I sudo su passwd root :) | 11:03 |
| Hamled | is there a key command to minimize a window in gnome? | 11:03 |
| ikonia | OzFalcon: passwd $user | 11:03 |
| rexnublr | I hate sudo, its so lame. | 11:03 |
| ikonia | OzFalcon: or set the password to blank in the user manager tool | 11:03 |
| ikonia | rexnublr: don't use it then | 11:03 |
| sdakak | ikonia: for the universe repo. The site was in the channel topic of #ubuntu-release-party. Do you know what is it? | 11:03 |
| rexnublr | ikonia HAH :) | 11:03 |
| ikonia | sdakak: I'm sorry I don't | 11:03 |
| DistroJockey | umbrualbert, it worked fine with 7.10 (smb:// that is) | 11:04 |
| musa | @umbrual: did you added the user to samba db: # smbpasswd -a <user> | 11:04 |
| CRASH69 | robbie: did it work? | 11:04 |
| LSD|Ninja | musa: that's supposed to be handled in 8.04 | 11:04 |
| oleavr | stupid question; I left my laptop installing Hardy through the alternate installation method (network install), and it ran out of power. /var/log/dpkg.log tells me that grub was the last package to be installed. can I trust that the system is fully installed, or would you recommend reinstalling? | 11:04 |
| keegan | hi is there a packet reconstructer like eEye iris on linux ? | 11:04 |
| rexnublr | I have a question, technically how hard would it be to emulate the Win XP interface in Ubuntu? | 11:04 |
| robbie | well I get You do not appear to be using the NVIDIA X driver. Please edit your X configuration file when I run nvidia-settings(just run `nvidia-xconfig` as root), and restart the X server. | 11:04 |
| rexnublr | graphically its a master of copy and paste images to PNG or something | 11:04 |
| rexnublr | but touchy feely wise. | 11:04 |
| ikonia | OzFalcon: boot it, try it | 11:04 |
| OzFalcon | ikonia, Doesn't work. Can;t set it blank in the user manager tool | 11:05 |
| robbie | when I run nvidia-settings | 11:05 |
| musa | LSD: oh ok | 11:05 |
| robbie | ive done what it said but it does the same thing again | 11:05 |
| ikonia | OzFalcon: passwd $user then | 11:05 |
| === void^_ is now known as void^ | ||
| asabil | rexnublr: XPDE | 11:05 |
| manchicken | rexnublr: Many have created artwork skins for that, none of them are very good. | 11:05 |
| OzFalcon | ikonia, I'll try that. But (passwd -d user) didn't work. | 11:05 |
| ikonia | OzFalcon: oh really, thats odd | 11:06 |
| * asabil wonders why people like the ugly teletubbies inspired windows XP interface | 11:06 | |
| TheBigNoob | ouch | 11:06 |
| manchicken | rexnublr: There comes a time when one must realize that Ubuntu isn't Windows... I would think most Ubunteros would encourage you to embrace Ubuntu as Ubuntu, and not try to turn it into Windows. | 11:06 |
| ikonia | OzFalcon: I would have expected passwd -d to work | 11:06 |
| CRASH69 | robbie: did you tried what I said? | 11:06 |
| TheBigNoob | lol it just changed into 320x175 graphics | 11:06 |
| OzFalcon | ikonia, Couln't login at all after deleting the password. | 11:06 |
| LSD|Ninja | Speaking of SMB, why doesn't Ubuntu list shares when you browse to a server in GNOME? I double click a machine and get nothing. I can access the shares with smb://server/share but that's a pain | 11:06 |
| DistroJockey | umbrualbert, the main issue is that it doesn't request a user/pass in most cases | 11:06 |
| ikonia | OzFalcon: try setting it to null | 11:06 |
| robbie | yep | 11:06 |
| robbie | installed those packages | 11:07 |
| rexnublr | asabil ya ya, but its lame, the fonts are all wrong etc. | 11:07 |
| umbrualbert | mmmm.I cant find a fix....Hope this gets resolved | 11:07 |
| ikonia | umbrualbert: what's the problem, I missed you question | 11:07 |
| Temporar1 | would it make my life easier to reinstall with 7.10 then? | 11:07 |
| asabil | rexnublr: then use GNOME, or go back to windows XP | 11:07 |
| Temporar1 | 8.04 is causing me so much trouble --_-- | 11:07 |
| umbrualbert | Creating shares on Hardy for winblows users to access | 11:07 |
| keegan | hi is there a packet reconstructer like eEye iris on linux ? | 11:07 |
| DistroJockey | umbrualbert, and even with the right credentials it fails for most secure shares | 11:07 |
| rexnublr | asabil maybe I will do it myself, but is there a copyright issue there? | 11:08 |
| ikonia | umbrualbert: you mean "windows" users, I assume | 11:08 |
| LSD|Ninja | Windows file sharing was never the best in Ubuntu, 8.04 just seems to have made it worse :( | 11:08 |
| asabil | rexnublr: I am not a lawyer | 11:08 |
| OzFalcon | ikonia, I can't set it to null. it says "no password supplied" | 11:08 |
| CRASH69 | robbie: and did you run: system>administration>Nvidia x server settinngs ? | 11:08 |
| keegan | hi is there a packet reconstructer like eEye iris on linux ? | 11:08 |
| ikonia | OzFalcon: ahh, thats a pain, one moment I'll try it on a box here | 11:08 |
| DistroJockey | LSD|Ninja, I agree, it has gotten worse | 11:09 |
| unop | keegan, ubuntu is linux :) | 11:09 |
| rausb0 | LSD|Ninja: smbmount (kernel based) is not working? | 11:09 |
| umbrualbert | ikonia: Yip, Windows... | 11:09 |
| LSD|Ninja | rausb0: hmm? | 11:09 |
| asabil | rexnublr: go ahead and do it, even if I am not really convinced about the "beauty" of the teleptubbies inspired green and blue interface | 11:09 |
| ikonia | umbrualbert: what's actually the problem ? | 11:09 |
| rexnublr | I think the linux file system needs to be reconstructed. | 11:09 |
| rausb0 | LSD|Ninja: not the gnome vfs thing and not smbclient. kernel based smbfs. | 11:09 |
| bullgard4 | LSD|Ninja: "Windows file sharing was never the best in Ubuntu, 8.04 just seems to have made it worse": The contrary is true. | 11:10 |
| LSD|Ninja | rausb0: I'm sure that works, that isn't the point | 11:10 |
| umbrualbert | rausb0.....for smbmount to work...apt-get install smbfs...was dropped in hardy | 11:10 |
| LSD|Ninja | bullgard4: no, not it's not | 11:10 |
| unop | rexnublr, it's fine as it is .. you need to get around how it is constructed, it takes a little time, but you get there. | 11:10 |
| rausb0 | umbrualbert: really? | 11:10 |
| ikonia | rexnublr: your making a theoretical discussion that is nothing to do with ubuntu, I suggest you try #ubuntu-offtopic | 11:10 |
| DistroJockey | Ubuntu box (8.04) trying to smb:// fails as does Connect to Server from places | 11:10 |
| jaffarkelshac | gizzo, i found it in terminal type gconf-editor apps>gwd> metacity theme opacity to 1 | 11:10 |
| umbrualbert | worked for me | 11:10 |
| asabil | rexnublr: do you know what a filesystem is ? | 11:10 |
| robbie | yeah its saying I dont have the driver enabled and to run nvidia-xconfig, ive done that and restarted x. its doing the same thing when I go to that nvidia administration program again | 11:10 |
| OzFalcon | ikonia, Any luck? | 11:10 |
| asabil | rexnublr: what do you want to change in the filesystem ? | 11:11 |
| ikonia | OzFalcon: how are you trying to login ? | 11:11 |
| rexnublr | I think we should create a new text charset, based on algroithms that generate png images at any size, thus replacing ascii and ansi 100 percent. | 11:11 |
| ikonia | asabil: rexnublr take it to #ubuntu-offtopic please. | 11:11 |
| rausb0 | !info smbfs | 11:11 |
| rexnublr | ok | 11:11 |
| ikonia | OzFalcon: eg: gdm, ssh ? | 11:11 |
| asabil | ikonia: ain't interested | 11:11 |
| ikonia | asabil: ok, drop the topic then | 11:11 |
| thyko | say, which repo has quakeIII demo? | 11:11 |
| OzFalcon | ikonia, gdm (human list) | 11:12 |
| asabil | ikonia: just wondering what is he talking about ... | 11:12 |
| ikonia | asabil: nonsense | 11:12 |
| ikonia | OzFalcon: ok | 11:12 |
| asabil | agreed | 11:12 |
| paulcross | How could MAC OSX be so fast?! Is it because the hardware? | 11:12 |
| rausb0 | hey ubottu, don't know !info anymore? | 11:12 |
| ikonia | paulcross: pardon ? in relation to what ? | 11:12 |
| rausb0 | silly bot | 11:12 |
| asabil | paulcross: it is *not* fast, it is slower in fact than other OSes | 11:12 |
| paulcross | ikonia, The cover flow, The time machine..... | 11:13 |
| ikonia | OzFalcon: Hmmm it looks like pam is playing a part | 11:13 |
| ikonia | paulcross: how is this anything to do with ubuntu ? | 11:13 |
| paulcross | asabil, Really. But in the video its very fast. | 11:13 |
| ikonia | OzFalcon: just tracking it down | 11:13 |
| OzFalcon | ikonia, I've hear of pam, But don't know anything about it. | 11:13 |
| paulcross | ikonia, ubuntu use the same cover flow effect. But it seems not fast enough. | 11:14 |
| asabil | paulcross: it is not fast. it just got smooth animations (I got a mac myself) | 11:14 |
| ikonia | OzFalcon: just walking it through now, I get the same issues, there is also application level configs for ssh/gdm etc which has options like "allow blank passwords) | 11:14 |
| paulcross | asabil, Oh | 11:14 |
| ikonia | paulcross: the X server is totally different | 11:14 |
| keegan | hi is there a packet reconstructer like eEye iris on linux ? | 11:14 |
| ikonia | keegan: check the repo's | 11:14 |
| keegan | okay | 11:15 |
| rausb0 | keegan: you mean something like dpkg-repack? | 11:15 |
| ikonia | rausb0: network tool | 11:15 |
| rausb0 | ikonia: oh, okay | 11:15 |
| paulcross | ikonia, oh. I thought its because OSX use the directx instead of opengl. | 11:15 |
| OzFalcon | ikonia, Hmmm. | 11:15 |
| ikonia | paulcross: directX is a windows technology isn't it ? | 11:15 |
| asabil | paulcross: oO no directX on osx | 11:16 |
| paulcross | ikonia, No .OSX panther using the directx. | 11:16 |
| asabil | paulcross: everyone uses OpenGL except microsoft | 11:16 |
| ikonia | paulcross: I think your mistaken on that | 11:16 |
| === andreas is now known as iluminatus | ||
| keegan | rausb0: no to reconstruct network packets | 11:16 |
| asabil | paulcross: no no dude, DirectX is only for windows and XBox | 11:16 |

| ikonia | OzFalcon: one moment | 11:17 |
| ikonia | OzFalcon: got it | 11:17 |
| ikonia | OzFalcon: /etc/gdm/gdm.conf | 11:17 |
| paulcross | asabil, wait a miniute. I belive i could find the youtube link which shows panther using the directx | 11:17 |
| OzFalcon | ikonia, yeah, looked at that. But doesn't mean much to me. | 11:17 |
| musa | paulcross maybe inside vmware fusion | 11:18 |
| asabil | paulcross: what are you talking about ? yeah sure there is Cider (cedega equivalent for OSX), but that's a DirectX implementation on top of OpenGL | 11:18 |
| kripz | Where are the ca certificates stored?? | 11:18 |
| ikonia | OzFalcon: look for "PasswordRequired=false" int eh config file. | 11:18 |
| OzFalcon | ikonia, oh, hold on. I was looking at /etc/pam.d/gdm sorry | 11:18 |
| asabil | paulcross: and to let you know, OpenGL is generally faster/better than DirectX (except on windows) | 11:19 |
| ikonia | OzFalcon: no problem | 11:19 |
| OzFalcon | ikonia, ok thanks for that | 11:19 |
| nonewmsgs | is there a program or an option to use id3/4 tags of an mp3 when burning an audio cd instead of the file name? | 11:19 |
| OzFalcon | ikonia, trying out now. | 11:19 |
| ikonia | OzFalcon: /etc/gdm/gdm.conf and the line PasswordRequired=false | 11:19 |
| j0be | Carbonflux: still there? i saw a /16 coming by, you are messed up with your netmasks | 11:19 |
| ikonia | OzFalcon: read the text above that line too | 11:19 |
| paulcross | asabil, I am looking for the link. | 11:19 |
| ikonia | paulcross: maybe take this to #apple | 11:19 |

| shomon | hi, I'm about to upgrade to the newest ubuntu but I'm scared that nautilus is going to lose my mapped ftp drives - is there a way to back them up just in case? | 11:27 |
| nonewmsgs | gunpreet have you rebooted since? | 11:27 |
| ikonia | _nous: created a mount point where ever you want (/media/$ or /mnt/$ are common) and then update your fstab | 11:27 |
| gurpreet | no | 11:27 |
| ikonia | gralexey: ok, and is /dev/sda your ide disk ? | 11:27 |

| _nous | ikonia, i would prefer to have it in the root dir | 11:28 |
| ikonia | _nous: root dir is fine - it's your system, mount where YOU like, | 11:28 |
| OzFalcon | ikonia, Still not working. I uncommented out the line to make passreq=false, I don't have a file /etc/default/login | 11:28 |

| _nous | or I guess I could symlink it | 11:28 |
| * _nous shrugs | 11:28 | |

| ikonia | OzFalcon: just restart X ? | 11:30 |
| OzFalcon | ikonia, or restart gdm | 11:30 |
| ikonia | gralexey: ok, so you know that /dev/sda is your sata disk then, so /dev/sda$ is all the partitions on your sata disk | 11:30 |
| OzFalcon | ikonia, can't remember how now. :-( | 11:30 |
| ikonia | gralexey: so in answer to your first question /dev/sda is your sata disk, and then /dev/sda$number is your partitions | 11:30 |

| ikonia | timr92: what happens if you "ping lcars_ubuntu" | 11:57 |
| icesword | hischild hmm, kk | 11:57 |
| inertial | anyone know why xrandr might only be displaying one of my monitors? | 11:57 |
| inertial | when in fact both of them are working as a cloned screen.. | 11:57 |
| tijn | i have the wierdest FF3 problem, the fonts are still way to big, user defining them doenst help, ctrl-+/- neither -> screenie http://imagebin.ca/view/7Qm3p-i.html | 11:57 |
| timr92 | ikonia, ping in the terminal on the computer in question? | 11:57 |
| usb_help | Also, why are my 2 petitions locked. A padlock symbol is displayed and I cannt edit them. | 11:58 |
| tijn | since hardy that is | 11:58 |
| areels | how can i open device manager? | 11:58 |
| ikonia | timr92: thats right yes | 11:58 |
| [volk] | ahh it seems I had to run dist-upgrade once again to upgrade the held back packages | 11:58 |
| timr92 | ok | 11:58 |
| UbuntuUser | i reinstalled gstreamer0.10-alsa, now when i click on sound icon on panel, it says "no volume control GStreamer plugins and/or devices found" | 11:58 |
| leyin | i am using ubuntu8.04 | 11:58 |
| timr92 | ikonia, "unknown host lcars_ubuntu" | 11:58 |
| icesword | !host > timr92 | 11:59 |
| hooer | okay.. none of the arrays UUID's in the mdadm.conf match the ones in /dev/disk/by_uuid or blkid :| | 11:59 |
| ikonia | timr92: ok, for arguments sake, boot into recovery mode and edit /etc/hosts to contain 127.0.0.2 lcars_ubuntu | 11:59 |
| ikonia | hooer: there you have it | 11:59 |
| mahadasda | hey there. I got an external HD that is having some kind of error. folders keep loosing write access... what can I do?what is the best command to check the disk and correct errors? its a vfat formatter disk | 11:59 |
| hooer | in fact they even have different syntax.. mdadm.conf uses : and the blkid ones use - | 11:59 |
| ikonia | hooer: thats one of the issues of blkid, changing disks changes the partition, which then changes your config | 11:59 |
| timr92 | ikonia, get rid of everything else? | 12:00 |
| papat | I cannot get icons seen in my Desktop, in kubuntu hardy, though I've activated the "see icons option". Any ideas? | 12:00 |
| ikonia | timr92: keep your localhost entry | 12:00 |
| ikonia | timr92: I assume you have 127.0.0.1 localhost in thre too | 12:00 |
| timr92 | ikonia, I think so | 12:00 |
| hooer | ikonia, i dont understand why /dev/md3 would be different tho, that's an 8-drive RAID5 array on a RAID controller that shouldbnt have changed? :| | 12:00 |
| ikonia | hooer: new disk - new partition | 12:00 |
| mahadasda | papat - did u enable the advanced desktop effekt things? if u enable the option to have different backgrounds on each screen u loose the desktop icons. well u dont loose them but they stay "hidden" behind the wallpapers | 12:00 |
| ikonia | hooer: think of the uuid as an md5 | 12:00 |
| hooer | oh | 12:01 |
| ikonia | hooer: thats the best examaple I can give | 12:01 |
| timr92 | ikonia, I just realised i have doubled up entries in grub, is that bad? | 12:01 |
| hooer | shouldn't the mdadm.conf be kept upto date automatically then? | 12:01 |
| ikonia | hooer: any changes to the parittion structure = changes to the "uuid" or "cheksum | 12:01 |
| ikonia | timr92: doubled up entries, what do you mean please ? | 12:01 |
| ikonia | hooer: script it :) | 12:01 |
| ikonia | hooer: there is no mechanism | 12:01 |
| hooer | ah :p | 12:01 |
| musa | after i upgraded to 8.04, the sound card is detected but their is no sound. | 12:01 |
| timr92 | ikonia, 2 entries for normal mode, 2 entries for recovery mode | 12:01 |
| mahadasda | I got an external HD where folders keep loosing write access... what can I do? what is the best command to check the disk and correct errors? its a vfat formatter disk | 12:01 |
| edward__ | what sorta sound card u got | 12:02 |
| ikonia | timr92: just remove the old ones | 12:02 |
| timr92 | ikonia, what do I do in the recovery menu? | 12:02 |
| hooer | so i should change the "-"'s for ":"'s when i put the blkid UUID's into mdadm.conf? | 12:02 |
| musa | edward: HDA Intel | 12:02 |
| timr92 | ikonia; resume, root, or xfix? | 12:03 |

| matt___ | case_: ok, i think i'm figuring this out a little bit... | 12:14 |
| acegikmo | apparently there's no-one active in the mythbuntu channel so I'll ask it here: is it now any easier to get the winfast dtv1000t's IR remote working with myth tv? apparently hardy has some patch that fixes the major bug, but I can't find a working config file anywhere | 12:14 |
| hischild | timr92, no, you need 2 lines. One with localhost and one with lcars_ubuntu | 12:14 |
| matt___ | case_: if you don't use the ; on something, it sorta continues doesn't it? | 12:14 |
| QuasarRichter | Hello | 12:14 |
| nirly | matt___: you mean in setting -> configure global shortcuts? or somewhere else | 12:15 |
| timr92 | hischild, ok and how do I use this thing? | 12:15 |
| case_ | matt___, yes, since it encounter a ';' | 12:15 |
| matt___ | nirly: that should work... | 12:15 |
| skywalker | hi everybody | 12:15 |
| case_ | matt___, thus you can type a muti-line command. | 12:15 |
| edward__ | timr | 12:15 |
| matt___ | case_: so on the select from user = matt thing, should it end in; | 12:15 |
| hischild | timr92, this is still about your /etc/hosts file? it needs 2 lines in it. One has to be 127.0.1.1 localhost and one has to be 127.0.1.1 lcars_ubuntu | 12:15 |
| nirly | matt___: they don't work globally | 12:15 |

| skywalker | which program i can use? | 12:16 |
| hischild | timr92, if it's old info, yes | 12:16 |

| mystic | anyone help me with an install problem - reboot and ubuntu hangs at hald ?? | 12:22 |
| edward__ | timr esc again | 12:22 |
| edward__ | timr it toggles it | 12:22 |
| timr92 | ohok | 12:22 |
| hcnet | Solusian: Reinstalling Linux may not be a one-shot solution. You will need to provide details and probably file a bug report at launchpad.net | 12:22 |
| edward__ | timr there's edit and command mode | 12:22 |
| edward__ | esc toggles between them | 12:22 |
| matt___ | case_: but i can't help but asking, i *think i remember someone mentioning some tool that would make this all easier, but i'm not sure about that. I may be thinking of phpmyadmin, but it's all a mess up there (my brain). | 12:22 |
| jerry_ | helllo | 12:22 |
| Arelis | Hey everybody. I composed a desktop PC of custom parts. Can anybody tell me if this will work fine with SuSe/Ubuntu/Fedora/any other distro? (i have to be sure): http://robinlinth.12gbfree.com/files/newpc/ (Ignore the parts between the ()'s, they are Dutch descriptions) | 12:22 |
| skywalker | said that the files are 118 mb and will be 328 mb .........what is that? | 12:22 |
| timr92 | edward, ok, and now I put the cursor at the start of localhost, coz localhost says localhokt atm | 12:23 |
| matt___ | Arelis: it should, but just give it a try | 12:23 |
| papat | is it possible to downgrade from hardy to another former version that works properly? | 12:23 |
| timr92 | edward, and I push escape? | 12:23 |
| edward__ | timr use kjhkl | 12:23 |
| edward__ | kjhl | 12:23 |
| timr92 | I did | 12:23 |
| edward__ | that's up down left right | 12:23 |
| edward__ | so put it before press esc and start inputting | 12:24 |
| edward__ | before the text u wanna edit | 12:24 |
| hischild | edward__, in vim you can just use the arrow keys. | 12:24 |
| nirly | i used ntfs configuration tool to mount NTFS drives with certain names and now i want to change those names, how can i do this? | 12:24 |
| matt___ | papat: 1:Download Iso 2: Burn Iso 3: Boot disk and install *former version that works properly | 12:24 |
| dare | how to give one user root privilages? | 12:24 |
| edward__ | it's easier to use hjkl (well for me) | 12:24 |
| hcnet | skywalker: Those are package installation files (.deb) that will be downloaded to install Java, Flash, Audio/Video codecs, etc. | 12:24 |
| hischild | !sudo | dare | 12:24 |
| ubottu | dare: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more information. | 12:24 |
| skywalker | ok thanks man | 12:24 |
| hcnet | skywalker: That one command will download and install *all* of them for you automatically. | 12:24 |
| timr92 | edward, hischild, arrows easier 4 me, lol | 12:24 |
| edward__ | lol ok | 12:24 |
| timr92 | edward, so I managed to create a new line also | 12:24 |
| timr92 | edward, so then localhost went on a new line | 12:25 |
| timr92 | edward, and I deleted that line | 12:25 |
| dare | hischild: but without typing sudo, just like root login? | 12:25 |
| hischild | !root | dare | 12:25 |
| ubottu | dare: Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth... there is no root password. Then you will see that it is 'sudo' that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo | 12:25 |
| timr92 | edward, so I am left with 127.0.0.1 | 12:25 |
| skywalker | ok man thanks | 12:25 |
| timr92 | edward, I hate this prorgam | 12:25 |
| hischild | dare, root access itself is achieved via sudo. | 12:25 |
| edward__ | timr text based editors suck | 12:25 |
| skywalker | can i hack or create a program into the linux ubuntu 8.04? | 12:25 |
| edward__ | lol | 12:26 |
| edward__ | to timr | 12:26 |
| Samuel | sure you can | 12:26 |
| timr92 | edward, ya, so uhm, yeah | 12:26 |
| case_ | skywalker, sure you can :) | 12:26 |
| shally87 | hi | 12:26 |
| skywalker | how man? | 12:26 |
| shally87 | help! | 12:26 |
| Samuel | just gotta be 1337 man | 12:26 |
| skywalker | with terminal | 12:26 |
| skywalker | ? | 12:26 |
| case_ | skywalker, what language do you know? | 12:26 |
| hischild | timr92, one you get used to vim, it's very easy to use. A simpler one is nano. | 12:26 |
| timr92 | edward, lol. I have 127.0.0.1, and I need to put localhost after it | 12:26 |
| hcnet | skywalker: What application do you wish to create and which languages do you wish to use for it? | 12:26 |
| skywalker | python | 12:26 |
| shally87 | question: i just installed drupal but having problem with folder cannot be created..how to fix this? | 12:26 |
| hischild | timr92, use nano. Move with arrows, type at cursor. ctrl x to quit. | 12:26 |
| bigboss | hI :) | 12:26 |
| hcnet | skywalker: Easy. Open a terminal and type 'python' without the quotes. | 12:26 |
| Samuel | python will do everything | 12:27 |
| timr92 | hischild, is nano on there by default and how do I exit this thing | 12:27 |
| hcnet | skywalker: The rest should be familiar to you. Creating a python module and running it for instance. | 12:27 |
| shally87 | help? | 12:27 |
| case_ | skywalker, python is installed by default. just start write python code with your favorite text editor, and here you go :) | 12:27 |
| edward__ | exit vi using :q i think | 12:27 |
| shally87 | !help | 12:27 |
| ubottu | I am ubottu, the all-knowing infobot, standing in for ubotu while he's getting his haircut done, nose pwodered, updated and transitioned to his new gorgeus looks in the near future ;) | 12:27 |
| hischild | timr92, ctrl + x to quit. It'll ask to save or not. exit vi and vim by :wq! | 12:27 |
| edward__ | timr won't save it | 12:27 |
| ikt | dare: go into system > admin > users, give root a password of your choice, then head into system > admin > login window and there should be an option under local for allowing local admin login, hope this helps | 12:27 |
| hischild | edward__, won't quit at all if there are changes. | 12:27 |
| skywalker | and what about the hacking part | 12:27 |
| skywalker | ? | 12:27 |
| timr92 | edward, it says E37 bla bla bla | 12:27 |
| case_ | skywalker, depend of what you want to hack :) | 12:27 |
| aquarius | How much disc space do I need free on a Dapper machine to upgrade it to Hardy? | 12:28 |
| dare | hischild, I dont want to use sudo and to enter passwords, i want to be superuser, administrator. | 12:28 |
| timr92 | edward, add ! to override | 12:28 |
| Pici | skywalker: apt-get source somepackage will get you the source for that package, then have fun | 12:28 |
| timr92 | edward, so what do I do?? | 12:28 |
| skywalker | others computers | 12:28 |
| Samuel | Is anybody else downloading 8.04 through the update thing right now? Man it's slow. | 12:28 |
| case_ | skywalker, ha ha! :D | 12:28 |
| bigboss | can ne 1 help me with psybnc | 12:28 |
| hischild | dare, you have to use sudo. You can set it to not require a password. | 12:28 |
| edward__ | oh type in :q! | 12:28 |
| case_ | skywalker, to hack the another computer, just type sudo kill -9 -1 | 12:28 |
| Dave123 | Samuel, of course it's slow... ;-) | 12:28 |
| inertial | dare: sudo -s | 12:28 |
| edward__ | that'll quit without saving according to the manual | 12:28 |
| hischild | case_, don't add useless suggestions please. | 12:29 |
| timr92 | edward, I did :!q, and I think it did something good | 12:29 |
| Samuel | so slow.... | 12:29 |
| erUSUL | dare: then use windows; there you are admin and free to shoot yourself in the foot ;) | 12:29 |

| jatt | I want to write foo<tab>bar | 12:29 |
| case_ | hischild, his question is ridiculous, so is my answer. | 12:29 |
| timr92 | edward, better now | 12:29 |
| Pici | !ask | 12:29 |
| ubottu | 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. :-) | 12:29 |
| ikt | dare, why do you want to login as root? | 12:29 |
| timr92 | edward, how to get to nano? | 12:29 |
| enis | I am experiencing some weird problem: I am running 8.04 and I am trying to get my wireless connection to work. I have a pcmcia "option globetrotter fusion". Seems to be working. Wireless networks are scanned and detected as they should. I suspect a problem with the wpa_supplicant. any hint? | 12:29 |
| hischild | timr92, type <esc><esc>:wq!<enter> | 12:29 |
| edward__ | same | 12:29 |
| edward__ | sudo nano /etc/hosts | 12:29 |
| bigboss | hello case_ | 12:29 |
| erUSUL | dare: if you work in linux as admin you defeat all the things that make it secure a problem free | 12:29 |
| skywalker | ip , ports? | 12:30 |
| D45H | i need deb for installing speedtouch 330 modem! | 12:30 |
| Samuel | anyone else as drunk as me? | 12:30 |
| hischild | case_, i know his question was ridiculous, but that doesn't mean we have to lower ourselves to his level | 12:30 |
| D45H | i still cant leave XP for drivers mNA | 12:30 |
| D45H | MAN" | 12:30 |
| QuasarRichter | so anyone play crysis? | 12:30 |
| edward__ | sorry bout that completetly forgot bout nano | 12:30 |
| timr92 | edward, I'm in recovery console, so I don't think I need sudo correct | 12:30 |
| Samuel | linux is hard.. | 12:30 |
| Pici | !offtopic | 12:30 |
| timr92 | edward, sudo doesn't work anyway | 12:30 |
| shally87 | anyone can help me?? | 12:30 |
| ubottu | #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome! | 12:30 |
| edward__ | i think that's correcgt | 12:30 |
| case_ | hischild, right. won't do it again. | 12:30 |
| edward__ | i just like typing in nano lol | 12:30 |
| dare | ikt, Im hate to enter passwords, but I have a lot thing in my accaunt so dont wont to login as root, i want to convert my accaunt to root | 12:30 |
| edward__ | i mean sudo | 12:30 |
| shally87 | this nothing to do with drupal but with ubuntu.. | 12:30 |
| jatt | it used to work Ctrl+Q TAB | 12:30 |
| shally87 | !anyone | 12:31 |
| ubottu | 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? | 12:31 |
| haxor | If you can get this to play games it would be all over | 12:31 |
| case_ | hischild, just note i could have suggested a more dangerous command... | 12:31 |
| timr92 | edward, lol | 12:31 |
| hischild | edward__, he is in recovery mode right? otherwise he can't save the file. | 12:31 |
| shally87 | !permission | 12:31 |
| ubottu | An explanation of how files and directories are organized on Ubuntu, and how they can be manipulated, can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LinuxFilesystemTreeOverview | 12:31 |
| hischild | case_, you could, and you'd be banned by one of the ops most likely. | 12:31 |
| edward__ | then what can he do | 12:31 |
| Pici | !msgthebot | shally87 | 12:31 |
| ubottu | shally87: Please investigate with me only in /msg or in #ubuntu-bots (type also /msg ubotu Bot). Don't use commands in the public channels if you don't know if they really exist. Also avoid adding joke/useless factoids. | 12:31 |
| hummesse | thats a pretty bad idea dare | 12:31 |
| erUSUL | D45H: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UsbAdslModem/SpeedTouch | 12:31 |
| case_ | hischild, probably. | 12:31 |
| hischild | edward__, reboot into recovery mode, fix the file, reboot, and done | 12:31 |
| inertial | dare: use sudo passwd root to enable the root account | 12:31 |
| shally87 | ok | 12:31 |
| skywalker | hack without ip ? | 12:32 |
| timr92 | hischild/edward, yes I'm in recovery mode, and uhm so there needs to b one line with 127.0.0.1 localhost and one with 127.0.0.1 lcars_ubuntu ? | 12:32 |
| Pici | !noroot | inertial | 12:32 |
| ubottu | inertial: We don't support a root password so don't suggest one unless you are going to be here 24/7 to help someone who has problems as a result of having one, many thanks ;-) | 12:32 |
| Dr_willis | hummesse, you can always set up sudo where you dont need to reenter your password. - you dont need to enable the root password to do that. | 12:32 |
| D45H | thanks erUSUL and hcnet | 12:32 |
| skywalker | just type sudo? | 12:32 |
| Pici | skywalker: what? | 12:32 |
| bigboss | case_ , can u tell me how to make nicks for my channel , what is the best way out | 12:32 |
| case_ | skywalker, forget it. don't type that commande. | 12:32 |
| hummesse | i know | 12:32 |
| edward__ | yeh u in nano yet timr | 12:32 |
| timr92 | edward, yes | 12:32 |
| crash91 | Coudld anyone please help me out with this emerald problem?? http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=772650 | 12:32 |
| skywalker | what is that sudo? | 12:32 |
| timr92 | edward, so much easier, lol | 12:32 |
| Pici | !sudo | skywalker | 12:32 |
| ubottu | skywalker: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more information. | 12:32 |
| hummesse | i just understood that dare wants to log in as root as default | 12:32 |
| dare | hummesse, I know for root accaunt but can I convert my accaunt to root privilages my ID 1000 to ID of root | 12:32 |
| inertial | Pici: ok, i see | 12:32 |
| dare | hummesse, yes | 12:32 |
| hischild | dare, no | 12:32 |
| INternat | so i have a wierd issue that i THINK is related to gdm. If i startx as root, the display loads and everything runs fine. If i use gdm or even kdm and then login, all my fonts are fubar.. everything is like massive, yet KDE reports the resolution is fine | 12:32 |
| timr92 | edward, fixed it | 12:32 |
| Samuel | i am drunk | 12:33 |
| hummesse | which is such a bad idea dare | 12:33 |
| hummesse | really really bad idea | 12:33 |
| Samuel | i have drunkin beers | 12:33 |
| Dr_willis | theres no need to login in to root by default You gain nothing by doing so. | 12:33 |
| case_ | skywalker, before "hacking" anything you have to learn how your system work, or you'll be a lame script kiddy for the rest of your life. | 12:33 |
| edward__ | ok | 12:33 |
| Samuel | beers are good | 12:33 |
| Samuel | i like beers | 12:33 |
| erUSUL | dare: we are not going to help you do that... as you can see is channel policy. You will have to ask elesewhere | 12:33 |
| hummesse | most programs (like xhcat) warns you whenever you try to start them as root | 12:33 |
| edward__ | wtf samuel | 12:33 |
| Samuel | i like flightof the concords | 12:33 |
| hummesse | i think firefox too | 12:33 |
| hischild | Samuel, please go to #ubuntu-offtopic ok? | 12:33 |
| Pici | Samuel: Thats great, but this is a support channel, and if you are going to be offtopic I am going to have to ask you to leave or try to be normal in #ubuntu-offtopic | 12:33 |
| enis | thanks anyway, dudez. Probably I'd better post to the forum. | 12:33 |
| timr92 | edward, and so with that other stuff, would that be left behind from network-manager ? | 12:33 |
| Samuel | its ok cause im from new zealand | 12:33 |
| case_ | skywalker, and i don't think you give "hacking" the meaning we give to it | 12:33 |
| dare | hummesse,erUSUL, ok thanks | 12:33 |
| timr92 | edward, I don't use network-manager, I use wicd | 12:33 |
| Samuel | but you shouldnt like them | 12:33 |
| Dr_willis | If you really could handle being 'root' then you really should know enough linux to know how to do it. :) | 12:33 |
| case_ | skywalker, and i hope nobody will give you advice how to do dirty things. | 12:34 |
| edward__ | timr network manager? | 12:34 |
| timr92 | edward, I had trouble with network manager and stuff. everything would be so slow when starting up when there's no wireless router present | 12:34 |
| haxor | lol @ samuel | 12:34 |
| skywalker | hacking i mean to access to others pc linux or windows to get files or to add | 12:34 |
| hischild | !lol | haxor | 12:34 |
| ubottu | haxor: Please don't use "LOL" and "OMG" and so forth on a regular basis. This is IRC, not IM, and using those lines on their own is not required, and it is rather annoying to the rest of the people in the channel; thanks. | 12:34 |
| edward__ | timr i guess that means that it is scanning for one | 12:34 |
| Pici | skywalker: Thats the kind of thing we dont not condone here. | 12:35 |
| haxor | roger | 12:35 |
| mystic | anyone help me with an install problem - as in I install via the windows installer - reboot and ubuntu hangs at hald ?? anyone please | 12:35 |

| aquarius | How much disc space do I need free on a Dapper machine to upgrade it to Hardy? | 12:35 |
| edward__ | less that 1G | 12:35 |
| case_ | skywalker, if you mean "without the authorisation of the computer owner" it's *bad* and i won't help you in any way | 12:35 |
| edward__ | *than | 12:35 |
| ikt | isn't that cracking case_? | 12:35 |
| case_ | ikt, it is | 12:35 |
| skywalker | without the permission anyway | 12:35 |
| edward__ | timr how r things going | 12:35 |
| Pici | !illegal | skywalker | 12:35 |

| boubbin | do i need w32codecs from medibuntu to play wmv ? | 12:36 |
| skywalker | how i can hack into linux? | 12:36 |
| hummesse | are you going to hack your own computer or somebody elses? | 12:36 |
| edward__ | goodbye people | 12:36 |
| skywalker | sb else | 12:36 |
| hummesse | ok, i think you should shut up with that | 12:36 |
| hummesse | i think you'll be banned the first time an admin sees that | 12:37 |
| case_ | nice one Pici :) | 12:37 |
| haxor | Poor skywalker went to the darkside | 12:38 |
| skywalker | hey | 12:38 |
| ikt | boubbin, looks like you might need to install them | 12:38 |
| ikt | to play wmv videos you will need w32 codecs | 12:38 |
| ikt | not necessarily from mediabuntu | 12:38 |
| apecat | uhm, where's gnome terminal's setting for not allowing blinking cursors (in 8.04) | 12:39 |
| KRF | boubbin, i think so | 12:39 |
| timr92 | hischild, how to I restart the computer from the recovery thing :D | 12:39 |
| inertial | so did the fglrx Catalyst 8.4 driver get included with hardy? | 12:40 |
| stepomaticc | hello, would like a regex to exclude everyfile thats not hidden, can you help | 12:40 |
| hischild | timr92, just type reboot now | 12:40 |
| skywalker | what commands are working into the terminal? | 12:40 |
| nirly | i used ntfs configuration tool to mount NTFS drives with certain names and now i want to change those names, how can i do this? | 12:40 |
| inertial | stepomaticc: hidden files start with a dot, non hidden files do not | 12:40 |
| Fritzel | if I installed the "kde" package is there a way I can uninstall it and all the crap it added to my menus I ment to get the dev package and made an oops | 12:40 |
| timr92 | hischild, thanks | 12:40 |
| kbrooks | um | 12:40 |
| timr92 | lol | 12:41 |
| case_ | skywalker, all the commands that are in $PATH and all the bash builtins :) | 12:41 |
| papat | is it possible to downgrade from hardy? | 12:41 |
| Pici | !cli | skywalker I think this is what you are asking | 12:41 |
| ubottu | skywalker I think this is what you are asking: The linux terminal or command-line interface is very powerful. Open a terminal via Applications -> Accessories -> Terminal (Gnome) or K-menu -> System -> Konsole (KDE). Guide: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UsingTheTerminal | 12:41 |
| stepomaticc | yes i know, but want a regular expression to match that | 12:41 |
| Pici | papat: no. | 12:41 |
| kbrooks | papat, no. | 12:41 |
| Pici | !downgrade | papat | 12:41 |
| ubottu | papat: Attempting to downgrade to an older Ubuntu version is explicitly not supported, and may break your system. | 12:41 |
| ikt | apecat: system > pref > keyboard afaik | 12:41 |
| rausb0 | case_: yeah. unspecific question, unspecific answer :) | 12:41 |
| case_ | :> | 12:41 |
| papat | ok, then return to debian. short ubuntu experience | 12:41 |
| case_ | rausb0, but i think my answer is accurate :) | 12:41 |
| skywalker | i have ubuntu and i can't hear sound solutiion? | 12:41 |
| rausb0 | case_: it is | 12:41 |
| Dr_willis | papat, the joys of disrto hopping. | 12:41 |
| kbrooks | um, is there a site which offers the ability to connect to a computer via vnc online | 12:42 |
| Dad | Upon startup one of our computers is giving this error message: "Failed to Publish the Service -- KDE Panel", and can no longer connect to the LAN. Is there any way to fix this? | 12:42 |
| jtravnick | papat, think the only way you can do that would be doing a fresh install to the version you want | 12:42 |
| papat | of course, I return home, Dr_willis , more work but it works | 12:42 |
| Dr_willis | kbrooks, 'sharemydesktop' or somthing liek that. | 12:42 |
| case_ | skywalker, you have to learn how to use the shell, and that's not trivial | 12:42 |
| Fritzel | kbrooks, allmost all vnc compatible servers have their own java web client | 12:42 |
| kbrooks | jtravnick, that's not "downgrading" | 12:42 |
| Pici | !sound > skywalker (Please see the private messsage from ubotu) | 12:42 |

| huzz | Hello, using 8.04 lts on a core duo 2.4ghz 7600GS Nvidia, i've tried with the restricted drivers and now installed the latest drivers, dual monitors twinview enable video is choppy i've searched and tried a lot of methods but nothing seems to work (Players used: vlc, mplayer). | 12:43 |
| case_ | skywalker, and read the man (manual) pages about them, with the man command | 12:43 |
| case_ | skywalker, like : man ls | 12:43 |
| kbrooks | Fritzel, um, the default vnc client doesnt offer java | 12:43 |
| jtravnick | kbrooks, it is if your taking hardy off may not be a true downgrade but its a downgrade | 12:43 |
| papat | Dr_willis, it's simply ridiculous that icons won't show in my Desktop | 12:43 |
| case_ | skywalker, and you have a long way to go, little padawan :D | 12:43 |
| case_ | skywalker, sorry, a long way to go you have, little padawan :)) | 12:43 |
| Dr_willis | papat, no idea what your problem is. I just got here. I always remove icons on the desktop. | 12:44 |

| huzz | i've disabled one of the monitors and tried it i've used different settings everything but just nothing works | 12:46 |
| skywalker | ok sorry i do now | 12:46 |
| Marco | Hey all, I have a quick question about upgrading | 12:46 |
| case_ | adred, i think the sp3 has to be run like any other windows bug^g program, from windows itself, not booting on it... | 12:46 |
| Tux2K8 | hello! | 12:46 |

| rrohde | hey everyone.. got Ubuntu 8.04 installed just fine, however, the dualboot with WinXP doesn't work. Even though WinXP was detected right and it's partition is available to me from within Ubuntu, attempting to dualboot into XP always starts the silly HP recovery function on hd0,1, even though hd0,0 is fine.. .any thoughts? | 12:47 |
| case_ | Marco, it won't overwrite it, but it's always a good idea to make a backup before upgrading... | 12:47 |
| huzz | haxor: tried the restricted as well as the latest drivers | 12:47 |
| DistroJockey | Marco, always have a backup | 12:48 |
| huzz | installed them manually | 12:48 |
| Marco | thanks case_, also what about the things in my /opt dir? | 12:48 |
| haxor | huzz are the sli | 12:48 |
| haxor | they* | 12:48 |
| case_ | Marco, same answer | 12:48 |
| huzz | haxor: no | 12:48 |
| Marco | awsome, thanks case_. I appreciate the reassurance. | 12:49 |
| case_ | Marco, but do backups. a lot. always :) | 12:49 |
| huzz | i am just about at my wits end here | 12:49 |
| Marco | Will do. | 12:49 |
| huzz | its become so bad i am actually thinking of going back and trust me thats a horrible choice | 12:49 |
| case_ | Marco, don't come back crying if hardy brick your PC :) | 12:49 |
| adred | case_ i dont get you sorry. the idea is i want to have sp3 as a guest OS on virtualbox. i already have other linux variants running as a guest. but i dont how with windows. anyone out there who has tried this? pls.. | 12:49 |
| case_ | adred, SP3 is just a program to upgrade you're windows XP. you have to install Windows XP, and then run SP3 from windows XP | 12:50 |
| case_ | adred, the service pack is not an OS in itself | 12:50 |
| adred | ok | 12:51 |
| davmor2 | Help please. I'm having hardware issues in hardy and I'm trying to track down what is causing it exactly. My dvd-rw and cd-rom lock up and become unusable. This also causes elements of the system to lock up also. I believe I am lowering it down slowly but just need some help to nail it completely. I believe it to be either a driver issue or the kernel. I have tried 32bit and 64bit to rule out it being a 64bit issue, I | 12:51 |
| asdrubal | so ubuntu SP3 isn't out yet? | 12:51 |
| case_ | (ok ok, windows xp isn't an OS in itself neither ;p ) | 12:51 |
| * fiyawerx laughs | 12:51 | |

| Dr_willis | I was thinking the Emerald Theme repo was down the other day | 12:56 |
| ikt | what happened to emerald, what handles compiz themes? | 12:57 |
| LadyNikon | well i guess since it seems my graphics is messed up.. and I tried to upgrade to 8.10 and that screwed up as well.. I am just gonna go with doing a fresh install | 12:57 |
| fiyawerx | crash91, the only one I know works for sure (as its the onyl one i installed) is this one - http://themes.beryl-project.org/theme_details.php?id=65 | 12:57 |
| LadyNikon | I can't believe updating could do this much damage :/ | 12:58 |
| gordboy | i hope this is logged. hardy is a complete mess. and the fault lies squarely with the amateur muppets who "maintain" the packages. i used both feist and gutsy, with little complaint. i am going to ditch hardy, as soon as i line up a replacement | 12:58 |
| fiyawerx | but if i click download, the option comes right up to open it with emerald theme manager, and it loads in fine | 12:58 |
| INternat | howdy all.. so i have a wierd issue that i THINK is related to gdm. If i startx as root, the display loads and everything runs fine. If i use gdm or even kdm and then login, all my fonts are fubar.. everything is like massive, yet KDE reports the resolution is fine | 12:58 |

| Dr_willis | INternat, users can have their own defined resolutions. - I forget what tool under kde/gnome sets it however. I always edit my xorg.conf to allow ONLY one res. | 12:59 |
| Slart | Andii: it should be installed by default, system, preferences, appearance to enable it | 12:59 |

| rrohde | Any idea why trying to boot into XP from Grub ends up in HP Pavilion's Windows repair mode instead of booting into XP? The Windows partition seems ok and I can access it just fine from within Hardy... | 13:01 |

| maunykah_ | I'm going to try that Slart | 13:01 |
| fiyawerx | crash91, try to cd into that directory, cd /home/crash/.emerald/themes | 13:02 |
| hooer | rrohde, probably choosing wrong parition? the HP repair partition is usually the first one | 13:02 |
| bobbob1016 | rrohde, Grub found the first XP looking it found, which was the recovery. Open a terminal | 13:02 |
| Slart | taomaster: sudo passwd or something similar | 13:02 |
| fiyawerx | ls | 13:02 |
| fiyawerx | oops | 13:02 |
| hooer | haha :p | 13:02 |
| maunykah_ | it says dpkg is already the newest version | 13:02 |
| Slart | taomaster: but it's not recommended to use the root account.. be warned =) | 13:02 |
| rrohde | ok.. terminal ready and waiting | 13:02 |
| rrohde | :) | 13:02 |
| Slart | maunykah_: and "sudo apt-get install apt" | 13:02 |

| Slart | maunykah_: well.. now I'm out of clever ideas.. you could try removing the apt database.. whereever that is located.. I don't know if will be rebuilt so I'd recommend some serious thinking before you do it | 13:05 |
| fiyawerx | crash91, that would do it, the permissions | 13:05 |
| neeto | crash91: sudo tar -xf whatever | 13:05 |
| bobbob1016 | rrohde, You can edit it from grub, that would be quicker. When you're at grub, press e on the option for XP, and change it to hd(0,1) there, and so on, it won't save there, but that would be faster than booting and rebooting all the time | 13:05 |

| bobbob1016 | rrohde, It's possible, but not really with XP, with Vista's BitLocker garbage maybe. But it's unlikely the HP thing found grub. | 13:13 |
| roxahris | is there a channel for compiz help? | 13:13 |
| bobbob1016 | rrohde, Terminal -> sudo apt-get install gparted | 13:13 |
| Svish | my music stops when I switch to a terminal with ctrl+alt+fN, is that on purpose? has it always done that? mean to remember that it didnt do that before.... | 13:13 |
| rrohde | oki | 13:13 |
| bobbob1016 | roxahris, #compiz | 13:13 |
| bobbob1016 | rrohde, That will let you see how many, and where your XP partitions are. | 13:14 |

| maunykah_ | thanks legend2440! Great help that is-especially since I'm using my tablet as a mouse for the time being..can't drag windows back and forth. Slart, the message that I get is this: reading package lists...done | 13:14 |

| haxor | huzz: you still here | 13:14 |
| roxahris | never mind | 13:14 |
| roxahris | thanks anyway | 13:14 |
| rrohde | bobbob1016 ok | 13:14 |
| timr92 | anyone know if "Advanced Desktop Effects Settings" is meant to be crashing in 8.04 | 13:14 |
| fiyawerx | timr92, seems to be working ok for me | 13:14 |
| gordboy | and another thing. the metapackages are supposed to hold groups of packages together. what happened to the new kernel metapackages ? they are completely broken. this is unacceptable. have any of the "maintainers" got the SLIGHTEST bit of experience actually maintaining. and have the release crew got the slightest clue about releases ? i think the answer is obvious : INCOMPETENT IDIOTS who wouldn't last 5 minutes in a wel | 13:15 |
| gordboy | l-run organization | 13:15 |
| rrohde | bobbob1016 it's started... let's see | 13:15 |
| huzz | haxor: yes | 13:15 |
| timr92 | fiyawerx, it wants to report an error whenever I try use it | 13:15 |
| huzz | haxor: that link just suggests installing the other drivers | 13:15 |
| ikt | gordboy, I think your rant would be better on the forums | 13:15 |
| inertial | anyone know why displayconfig-gtk might not be showing a 2nd VGA monitor that i just plugged in before i restarted? i am using fglrx | 13:15 |
| jrib | gordboy: this isn't the appropriate forum. File bugs (hopefully with a better attitude) | 13:15 |
| bobbob1016 | rrohde, Try everything fat32 and ntfs to boot from | 13:15 |
| timr92 | fiyawerx, there is also no custom option in the apperance effects tab | 13:15 |
| haxor | huzz: sorry | 13:15 |
| haxor | huzz: what card you running | 13:16 |
| huzz | Nvidia 7600GS | 13:16 |
| rrohde | bobbob1016 there is a fat32 partition on /dev/sda2 that seems to be that HP thingy, and the larger /dev/sda1 is ntfs and contains XP (It's also mounted in fstab) | 13:16 |
| timr92 | fiyawerx, perhaps should I try reinstalling it?? I have no idea, I'm a linux noob | 13:16 |
| gordboy | ikt: i'm going to rant until the hardy BULLSHIT ceases. this is one of the worst releases, of any distro, ever | 13:16 |
| jrib | !offtopic | gordboy | 13:17 |
| ubottu | gordboy: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome! | 13:17 |
| bobbob1016 | rrohde, Remember hd(0,0) applies to the first hard drive's first partition, hd(0,1) is the first hd's second partition, hd(1,0) is the second hd's first partition, and so on | 13:17 |
| haxor | huzz: did you find the programs in add \remove applications | 13:17 |
| huzz | i know tried it | 13:17 |
| boubbin | !medibuntu | 13:17 |
| rrohde | bobbob1016 right... thanks :) | 13:17 |

| inertial | xrandr is also not seeing my second monitor.. using ati fglrx drivers | 13:17 |
| Solusian | Anyone able to assist me with a wireless issue? I'm running 64 bit 8.04 with the AR5007EG, it can see the WiFi networks.. yet is unable to acquire a network address.. It worked before I attempted to auto-mount a NTFS drive, which I reverted to it's default state after. Using ndiswrapper to load the XP-64 drivers. | 13:17 |
| bobbob1016 | rrohde, My idea would be just to try all of those | 13:17 |
| ikt | gordboy, I don't understand why though, what is it about ubuntu that keeps you here if it's so bad? | 13:18 |
| CapaH | Can someone please tell me how to FIX the Clipboard size in Ubuntu? I hate when I have to paste LARGE items of text from one window to another and they just wont paste.. Anyone? | 13:18 |
| rrohde | bobbob1016 will do | 13:18 |
| paulcross | HA. I fixed the metacity minimize problem. | 13:18 |
| bobbob1016 | gordboy, You can go back to Gutsy, Gutsy will have support until Ibex comes out. | 13:18 |
| _adriaan | ikt: wouldn't you rather start that discussion in antoher channel? | 13:18 |

| tyeman | how can i set a file server for my mp3s and movies for xp machines? sharing enough or any tool for this ? | 13:19 |
| timr92 | and anything is better than windoze, nearly | 13:19 |
| haxor | huzz: Are you using the Nvidia control panel application | 13:19 |
| Tyrion | hi, i'm new to ubuntu and have messed up my GUI ... maybe someone here able to help me ? | 13:19 |
| gordboy | ikt: i switched to ubuntu when fedora 7 was broken. feisty and gutsy were ok. hardy is a disaster. the reason i am still here, is that it is not just me using hardy. i have a whole research team. and i am FED UP with the hassle and extra admin | 13:19 |
| bobbob1016 | tyeman, You should just have to share the folder with samba. | 13:19 |
| _adriaan | Tyrion: what's the problem, exactly? | 13:20 |
| bobbob1016 | Tyrion, Do you get any gui or no? | 13:20 |
| rrohde | Doesn't work... whenever I call WinXP from Grup (root (hd0,0)), it goes to hd0,1 and launches the HD recovery thingy.. :( | 13:20 |
| rrohde | *Grub | 13:20 |
| Siph0n | gordboy, than why don't you use Gutsy instead? | 13:20 |
| oga | problem with sudo / something when attempting sudo gedit program takes approx 5 mins to load, possible problem with pam from logs | 13:20 |
| rungss | Can someone help me with http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=4861120 | 13:20 |
| bobbob1016 | rrohde, This is on another machine? | 13:20 |
| tyeman | thank you bobbob1016 i will give a try | 13:20 |
| _adriaan | gordboy: and what exactly is broken? I mean, everything works just fine here | 13:20 |
| Tyrion | i've install ubtuntu 8.04 Desktop Version out of the Box .. everything worked finde, until i tried to install custom desktop themes .. don't no what i exactly did wrong, but here's what's happening: | 13:21 |
| rrohde | bobob1016 nope.. tried it all before :) | 13:21 |
| bobbob1016 | tyeman, There could be a permissions error though | 13:21 |
| rrohde | Just looked through my notes again | 13:21 |
| maunykah_ | so this occured because I installed limewire without installing the commercial or partner package? | 13:21 |
| gordboy | bobbob1016 & Siph0n : because i upgraded all the machines already. and i am NOT spending more time and effort to gi back again. unless hardy improves dramatically, i am switching distros forever | 13:21 |
| hooer | can anyone help me with my RAID problem? my replacement RAID1 drive isn't bootable (only the original one is) | 13:21 |
| bobbob1016 | tyeman, It could have errors if the people connecting don't have a user name on the ubuntu server. | 13:21 |
| oga | question: "sudo gedit" runs at snails pace, (incredibly, unusable slow). while all other systems run normally | 13:22 |
| Tyrion | i'm getting a login screen and can login (grapic login) .. but after that i'm only getting a empty window with a blank box ... gdm & x11 are running and when i start metacity manually the blank box gets a window skin ... | 13:22 |
| Slart | gordboy: if you want it to get better, file bugs... if you just want to vent some anger.. write a nasty mail to someone that is kind of responsible.. most people here are just users.. just like you | 13:22 |
| tyler_roach | gordboy: what is the problem you're having witih hardy? | 13:22 |
| fiyawerx | gordboy, from the way you switched from your other distros, i doubt you'll do anything forever | 13:22 |
| timr92 | I removed ccsm and now its not appearing in synaptic :D | 13:22 |
| ikt | gordboy, no offense but you're not doing a very good job admining if you upgrade all the systems without testing it out first :/ | 13:22 |
| * fiyawerx nods | 13:22 | |
| tyeman | i see bobbob1016 bot they aren't run on any domainjust with group | 13:22 |
| gordboy | tyler_roach: unacceptable extra admin due to broken packages. is the short answer | 13:22 |
| _adriaan | ikt: don't encourage it, please. | 13:22 |
| ikt | sorry! | 13:23 |
| timr92 | lol | 13:23 |
| CapaH | Does anyone know how to set the size of the COPY/PASTE clipboard? It is a massive frustration for me because I often need to copy/paste LARGE text from one window to another and I cant, it gets cut off ? | 13:23 |
| * ikt hides | 13:23 | |
| jrib | gordboy: if you want support for actual issues, feel free to ask specific questions. don't rant here | 13:23 |
| bobbob1016 | gordboy, First off, I think this would be better for #ubuntu-offtopic, since this channel is for help. There are some known issues with hardy that are being fixed. Getting mad at us won't help. | 13:23 |
| bobbob1016 | rrohde, I'm not sure then, sorry. | 13:23 |
| Wobe | I dont get these hardy issues, I've done a ton of machines with very little issue, just read beforhand and know what to expect | 13:23 |
| timr92 | yes, well I need help | 13:23 |
| ikt | did maynykah fix the apt issue? | 13:23 |
| fiyawerx | dont know if i'd upgrade important machines this soon after a release either, in general, always too paranoid | 13:23 |
| timr92 | I uninstall compiz advanced thing, and now I can't reinstall | 13:23 |
| Slart | ikt: I don't know.. haven't heard anything from him in a while | 13:23 |
| gordboy | ikt: no offence, but if you can't even spell "offence" .... | 13:23 |
| _adriaan | Tyrion: Not sure whether I can help with that, sorry | 13:23 |

It worked before I attempted to auto-mount a NTFS drive, which I reverted to it's default state after. Using ndiswrapper to load the XP-64 drivers. | 13:24 |

| Wobe | I cant spell either | 13:24 |
| oga | question: "sudo gedit" runs at snails pace, (incredibly, unusable slow). while all other systems run normally. any advice on how to debug? It's so bad that I cannot save an edited config file. | 13:24 |
| bobbob1016 | gordboy, You could also state your problem... offense is spelled with an s not a c | 13:24 |
| Tm_T | Wobe: don't use "nazi" that lightly danke | 13:24 |
| gordboy | bobbob1016: BULLSHIT | 13:24 |
| Pici | !language | gordboy | 13:24 |
| ubottu | gordboy: Please watch your language and topic to help keep this channel family friendly. | 13:24 |
| Wobe | Tm_T: sorry was using it in the meme sense, nothing else | 13:24 |
| Zombine | It's actually spelled that way man | 13:25 |
| timr92 | oga, gksu gedit maybe | 13:25 |
| tyler_roach | oga: technically, you should use gksudo gedit, not sudo. | 13:25 |
| Wobe | oga: that's odd, and other editors are working normally? | 13:25 |
| gordboy | fucking morons who can't even spell, let alone run a help channel, that is constantly crowded cos the distro is falling apart. WHAT A FUCKING DUMP | 13:25 |
| Slart | offence, offense.. american vs brittish I think.. but it's !ot | 13:25 |
| bobbob1016 | gordboy, Both are correct according to spellcheck.net | 13:25 |
| haxor | huzz: did you try this one http://www.ubuntugeek.com/dual-monitors-with-nvidia.html | 13:25 |
| timr92 | yay, gordboy left | 13:25 |
| Slart | bye bye gordboy | 13:25 |
| timr92 | what's difference with gksu and gksudo? | 13:26 |
| Tyrion | hmm, maybe someone other is able to help me ? the probleme is the same as mentioned here: http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-544146.html .. but i'm using a ATI card | 13:26 |
| Zombine | Anyone know where I can get my hands on a library I can use for reading encrypted DVDs? | 13:26 |
| Slart | Zombine: the dvd css thingy? | 13:26 |
| Slart | !dvd | 13:26 |
| ubottu | For playing DVD, see http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/video.html - "libdvdcss2" can be found at !Medibuntu or (for Feisty and earlier) http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages - Try k9copy (available in !Universe) for backing up DVDs | 13:26 |
| Siph0n | timr92, I am pretty sure they are both the same | 13:26 |
| tyler_roach | gksudo is for when you want to run a graphical apllication, sudo is from the command line. | 13:26 |
| Myrtti | *yawn* | 13:26 |
| Zombine | Slart: Yes. Thanks :D | 13:26 |
| Slart | timr92: something about the way it sets up the enviroment I think.. check the man page for details | 13:26 |
| oga | timr92 tyler_roach using gksu nothing loads (or it might just be taking forever because now i don't have terminal feedback | 13:27 |
| timr92 | siph0n, ok then. and anyone know why dvd's won't work 4 me when I've got the restricted extras and whatever.. do I need other stuff? | 13:27 |
| timr92 | oga, that's funny, that's what was happening with my prob b4 | 13:27 |
| timr92 | kinda | 13:27 |
| maunykah_ | ok would adding the restricted packages help resolve my apt database error? | 13:27 |
| inertial | oh no wonder xrandr doesn't work with fglrx... ati has it's own way of doing graphics setup with aticonfig.. | 13:28 |
| Siph0n | timr92, ok just confirmed it, the man pages for gksu and gksudo are the same :) | 13:28 |
| oga | timr92 try terminal sudo gedit and see if you replicate | 13:28 |
| Wobe | Tyrion: can you use ubuntu paste to show the xorg.conf | 13:28 |
| huzz | haxor: checking out the link now | 13:28 |
| timr92 | oga, mines fixed now though | 13:28 |
| Pici | !gksudo | oga | 13:28 |
| ubottu | oga: If you need to run graphical applications as root, use « gksudo », as it will set up the environment more appropriately. Never just use "sudo"! (See http://psychocats.net/ubuntu/graphicalsudo to know why) | 13:28 |
| timr92 | oga, I do gksu gedit, and it asks 4 password, straight away | 13:29 |
| Tyrion | @wobe: no .. i'm chatting from a other box ... the network is also not working anymore :( (worked fine bevor without configuration [DHCP]) | 13:29 |
| hansheng | hello, may I know about mount? what mean is utf8 0 0 or utf8 0 2 this 0 0 or 0 2 mean? | 13:29 |

| timr92 | oga, b4 I was getting errors about the hostname | 13:29 |
| timr92 | oga, but that might have been with sudo | 13:29 |
| Tyrion | i've some few are interesting, i can copy them manually | 13:30 |
| Wobe | Tyrion: can you get into X at all on that other machine? | 13:30 |
| hischild | timr92, sudo and gksudo both ask for your normal password. | 13:30 |
| timr92 | hischild, I know | 13:30 |
| alpikat | I can't open gnome, I'm writting in KDE | 13:30 |
| Tyrion | the other maschine is WinXP | 13:30 |
| legend2440 | maunykah_: can you paste your /etc/apt/sources.list? not here. in pastebin | 13:30 |
| Myrtti | hansheng: man fstab, also http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/fstab.html | 13:30 |
| oga | timr92 i might have those problems also but i stopped worrying once my wifi was working.... Problem is after password has been entered. | 13:30 |
| timr92 | hischild, oga asked me to replicate, whatever that ment, lol, and uh when I had the probs with the hosts, it wouldn't do anything with gksu | 13:30 |
| soulc | anyone have a clue as to why my number pad is no longer working? And don't say numlock that would be insulting | 13:30 |
| hansheng | thanks | 13:30 |
| hischild | timr92, i see. I can explain the entire situation if needed. | 13:31 |
| fiyawerx | soulc: i usually have to turn numlock off and then back on for it to work after startup | 13:31 |
| fiyawerx | even tho numlock is on | 13:31 |
| maunykah_ | where is the pastebin? Sorry I don't remember and does it matter that I have already tried to delete some lines? | 13:31 |
| Pici | !paste | maunykah_ | 13:31 |
| hischild | !pastebin | maunykah_ | 13:31 |
| ubottu | maunykah_: pastebin is a service to post multiple-lined texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu.com (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the channel topic) | 13:31 |
| legend2440 | !paste | 13:31 |
| timr92 | hischild, yes well, it was just a thought but now I don't know oga's prob, lol.. still too much of a noob I am :D | 13:31 |
| Wobe | Tyrion: I meant the one you are having issue with | 13:31 |
| dim | hello to every one, I entered here bc i been having some difficulties with my screen and I don't know how to fixed it | 13:31 |
| hischild | oga, you're having trouble with sudo? | 13:31 |
| Myrtti | !ask | dim | 13:31 |
| ubottu | dim: 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. :-) | 13:31 |
| rrohde | didn't work.. hd0,0 gets a "disk read error" | 13:32 |
| rrohde | even though I can mount it just fine under Ubuntu | 13:32 |
| Tyrion | the messed up one starts X11 and gdm | 13:32 |
| Slart | CapaH: still having clip board problems? I just tried a little copy pasting.. I don't know how large texts you use but I just copied and pasted a 115 MB text file without any problems...but I'm still using gutsy.. perhaps it's a hardy thing | 13:32 |
| Solusian | Anyone here knowledgeable on WiFi issues per chance? | 13:32 |
| fiyawerx | CapaH, how much ram do you have? | 13:32 |
| Wobe | Tyrion: I suggest trying envy, then working from there | 13:32 |
| hischild | timr92, i see. If he has trouble with sudo, perhaps i can help out. | 13:32 |
| Myrtti | !anyone | Solusian | 13:32 |
| ubottu | Solusian: 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? | 13:32 |
| Tyrion | what's nevy ? | 13:32 |
| Myrtti | !envy | 13:33 |
| ubottu | 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 » | 13:33 |
| Myrtti | envyNG is in the repos though | 13:33 |
| Wobe | what the bot says :) | 13:33 |
| Myrtti | you can use that quite safely | 13:33 |
| maunykah_ | ok here it is: http://paste.ubuntu.com/9467/ | 13:33 |
| Solusian | Myrtti: I did, though I didn't get any responses like that. | 13:33 |
| oga | hischild yes i am, "sudo gedit" means that program runs ***incredibly slow (like memory overload). timr92 suggested possible problem due to editing hostname (which i did manually through network settings). gksu / gksudo don't seem to work either. | 13:33 |
| Tyrion | ok thx | 13:33 |
| Slart | I had some problems on my laptop with using sudo after upgrading to hardy.. something about not being able to resolv the hostname.. I never got around to fixing that.. | 13:33 |
| Wobe | Tyrion: I find that using envy usually sets things up right, and if not at least get's you a bit closer | 13:33 |
| Slart | isn't envyng now included in hardy? | 13:34 |
| coolkid112 | Hey guys | 13:34 |
| dishayu | i can't go beyond 800x600 on my FRESH hardy 32 bit install... geforce 7300 512MB , 2GB RAM... tried envy and installing the package from nvidia website too... still doesn't work.. nvidia settings manager gives a "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. " error... | 13:34 |

| babolat | Slart: what exactly were u trying to do? or does it happen with all sudo commands? | 13:34 |
| timr92 | :D hischild, I had funny probs with sudo and gksu, but yeah, oga's prob obviously aint that anymore | 13:34 |
| Wobe | Slart: it's in the repo's but not installed by default | 13:34 |
| Slart | babolat: with all sudo commands | 13:34 |
| discoverpc | lenovo laptop suspend issue some times with ubuntu 8.04 ? | 13:34 |
| Tyrion | ok, but my other problem, that i can't get network access (anymore) prevents me from using/installing envy ... but because i'm using a DHCP i'm assuming this is only a question of the right commands to get it started ? | 13:35 |
| oga | timr92 i'm not sure, i am having a funny problem with sudo | 13:35 |
| Slart | Wobe: ah.. well.. at least that makes it a little bit accepted =) | 13:35 |
| soulc | yeah tried that no go | 13:35 |
| sisif | Hello guys. Anyone here has any experience with ndiswrapper and wicd ? | 13:35 |
| timr92 | oga, well do you get an error about hostname when you try use sudo? | 13:35 |
| coolkid112 | Well uh, i was wondering if you guys could help me with the menu bar? It dissapeared | 13:35 |
| soulc | ok I have a kvm switch but here is the thing it stopped working after upgrading to hardy | 13:35 |

| southafrikanse | hello. I'm installing Stage and it says: WARNING: A suitable GTK+ was not found. GTK+-2.4 or later is required | 13:36 |
| oga | timr92 nope, no relation then. | 13:36 |
| sisif | babolat: Sorry. | 13:36 |
| timr92 | oga, and my probs were with all administrative apps, I still think I'm too nooby to help coz you are prob is diff to mine | 13:36 |
| soulc | num lock ligh goes on and off no diff I have changed the keyboard type nothing | 13:36 |
| oga | tyler_roach yep.... | 13:36 |
| oga | tyler_roach only user on pc | 13:36 |
| CapaH | It appears the copy/paste issues i have only exist on TERMINAL -- using the terminal app | 13:36 |
| babolat | Slart: care to shoot me with the prompt you get again? | 13:37 |
| Pici | !hostname | timr92 | 13:37 |
| ubottu | timr92: Use hostname <somehostname> to set the hostname, or to do it permanently: edit /etc/hostname and /etc/hosts . WARNING! Make sure that your current hostname and /etc/hosts match, otherwise sudo may not work properly. Alternatively, use the gui at system>administration>networking on the "General" tab | 13:37 |
| tyler_roach | oga are you working with a fresh install of hardy/ | 13:37 |
| timr92 | er, what's up with ubottu?? | 13:38 |
| timr92 | is it a bot? | 13:38 |
| hischild | oga, i see. Well, it might have much to do with the hostname as it is important with it. Do you use a domain or workgroup with it? | 13:38 |
| soulc | I use the clunky ibm type keyboard with the springy keys | 13:38 |
| oga | tyler_roach upgrade 7.04=>7.10=>8.04 | 13:38 |
| hischild | timr92, yes | 13:38 |
| hischild | !bot | 13:38 |
| ubottu | I am ubottu, the all-knowing infobot, standing in for ubotu while he's getting his haircut done, nose powdered, updated and transitioned to his new gorgeous looks in the near future ;) | 13:38 |
| timr92 | lol | 13:38 |
| timr92 | that's hilarious | 13:38 |
| Slart | babolat: sure.. let me power up the laptop | 13:38 |
| timr92 | the bot thing | 13:38 |
| maunykah_ | the lines that I had deleted first contained something about canonical partner | 13:38 |
| bobbob1016 | dishayu, Not sure if someone else helped you yet, but System->Administration->Hardware Drivers, then just click "enable" for the nvidia driver. It should install the driver. | 13:38 |
| tyler_roach | oga this problem started after the upgrade? | 13:38 |
| babolat | Slart: please do ;) | 13:39 |
| sisif | So my problem is: I just installed ndiswrapper and wicd, but I can`t see no wifi connection in wicd. If i do "ifconfig", it shows me my eth1, also the ndiswrapper module is loaded. And I don`t have any clue on how to connect to my wifi router or even check if my wifi connection actually works. Any suggestion ? | 13:39 |
| oga | hischild i have smb installed but not used for a long time dont' remember workgroup settings | 13:39 |
| oga | hischild just about to dig around in smb conf | 13:39 |
| crash91 | How can i set a disk to automount at startup? | 13:39 |
| dishayu | bobbob1016 : LOL, do you think i didn't try it already?? that was the 1st thing i did... | 13:39 |
| hischild | oga, it's only important whether you've added the workgroup to the hostname in /etc/hosts. | 13:39 |
| babolat | crash91: edit fstab | 13:39 |
| legend2440 | maunykah_: everything looks fine except for lines you removed. don't remove lines just comment them out using #. have you run sudo apt-get update lately? | 13:39 |
| babolat | !fstab | crash91 | 13:39 |
| ubottu | crash91: The /etc/fstab file indicates how drive partitions are to be used or otherwise integrated into the file system. See http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/fstab.html and !Partitions | 13:39 |
| bobbob1016 | dishayu, I'm just saying, some people wouldn't have, no need to get cynical. Try the simple things first | 13:40 |
| Solusian | Anyone able to assist me with a wireless issue? I'm running 64 bit 8.04 with the AR5007EG, it can see the WiFi networks.. yet is unable to acquire a network address.. It worked before I attempted to auto-mount a NTFS drive, which I reverted to it's default state after. Using ndiswrapper to load the XP-64 drivers. | 13:40 |
| oga | tyler_roach actually after the upgrade, was working... now isn't. Definitly was working pre upgrade | 13:40 |
| maunykah_ | oh no! What should I do I deleted them and then saved that new document! | 13:40 |
| tyler_roach | oga what exactly is the error message? | 13:40 |
| georgesa | how could i download all the .vim files from http://www.cs.cmu.edu/~maverick/VimColorSchemeTest/index-c.html? | 13:40 |
| crash91 | babolat: thanks | 13:40 |
| babolat | !wireless | Solusian | 13:40 |
| ubottu | Solusian: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs | 13:40 |
| southafrikanse | WARNING: A suitable GTK+ was not found. GTK+-2.4 or later is required how to I solve this? | 13:40 |
| maunykah_ | so I comment them out by just putting "#" before and after? | 13:40 |
| fiyawerx | anyone know what sun-java6-plugin installs or how to see? I installed it but no luck with firefox/java still | 13:40 |
| babolat | crash91: np | 13:40 |
| legend2440 | maunykah_: no just before is fine | 13:41 |
| psilikon | What sets the font type for the framebuffer during bootup? | 13:41 |
| maunykah_ | so this would be for the lines that I deleted? How can I get them back? | 13:41 |
| v0lksman | How do you map a drive persistently using only GUI tools? I know how to edit the fstab but I'm trying to help my father get into Ubuntu and want to keep him in the GUI as much as possible... | 13:41 |
| maunykah_ | or can I just put it in another line? | 13:41 |
| ikt | admin > system > software sources, does it put the lines in for apt-get automatically? | 13:42 |
| MrFawkes | is there any way I can get synaptic to print out the differences between the packages on my box and the standard ubuntu setup? | 13:42 |
| oga | tyler_roach no error just runs at a rate that makes the program totally unusable, hangs on action (e.g. save, close etc.) | 13:42 |
| timr92 | can anyone answer a quick question about bluez? | 13:42 |
| babolat | whew | 13:42 |
| legend2440 | maunykah_: i vcan paste my sources.list so you can add lines you removed. but i use a different server than you so it will look different | 13:42 |
| rym | Hmm im wondering if its really important to update to 8.04.. the updates i just read dont seem that necessary to me? | 13:42 |
| maunykah_ | thanks legend2440! | 13:42 |
| MrFawkes | rym: well, you'll get newer versions of most packages, which is usually nice. | 13:42 |
| rym | Or more importantly, would i get issues like programs not wanting to run anymore in 8.04 ? | 13:43 |
| maunykah_ | would I just paste the lines? or is it going to look completely different | 13:43 |
| tyler_roach | oga graphical apps and the command line? | 13:43 |
| rym | Hmm | 13:43 |
| babolat | !ask | timr92 | 13:43 |
| ubottu | timr92: 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. :-) | 13:43 |
| fiyawerx | rym: can alwyas try it out in a vbox | 13:43 |
| hansderagon | Greetings. Stupid question. How can I adjust the different volumes in Gnome without having to add the volume applet so I can right click it? | 13:43 |
| rym | true | 13:43 |
| soulc | what a drag | 13:43 |
| paulcross | rym, some programe do have problems with 8.04 | 13:43 |
| rym | well until now ive only been using generic programs | 13:43 |
| bobbob1016 | rym, It isn't urgent or anything, Gutsy still will be supported for a while. Programs should still run though. Some people have issues with Hardy though, so maybe waiting a bit would help. | 13:43 |
| rym | with the exception of ushare | 13:43 |
| georgesa | how could i download all the .vim files from http://www.cs.cmu.edu/~maverick/VimColorSchemeTest/index-c.html? | 13:44 |
| insomnia_ | hello, could i get some help with my 8.04 upgrade... im in the process of setting installation settngs and have reached debconf | 13:44 |
| timr92 | ok then, well, with bluez, there is an option to "Share files from public folder", where is the public folder? | 13:44 |
| oga | tyler_roach yep, but i'm going to stuff around for a bit and see what i can get going, maybe problems with /etc/hosts as I manually changed user-desktop.(something) to user-desktop as part of debugging wifi (which is now working) | 13:44 |
| Slart | babolat: ahh.. just found something new.. it works if I'm connected to internet.. if I'm not I get "sudo: unable to resolve host markus-laptop" | 13:44 |
| MrFawkes | georgesa: firefox+downthemall or a wget sctipt | 13:44 |
| v0lksman | georgesa: get DownthemAll for firefox and | 13:44 |
| level09 | guys, whats the apache process user in CentOS ? | 13:44 |
| rym | Allright I guess i'll jsut wait a bit and update whenever I feel like it | 13:44 |
| v0lksman | MrFawkes beat me to it.. :) | 13:44 |
| georgesa | alright, thanks | 13:45 |
| MrFawkes | is there any way I can get synaptic to print out the differences between the packages on my box and the standard ubuntu setup? or just the manually installed ones? | 13:45 |
| insomnia_ | hello, could i get some help with my 8.04 upgrade... im in the process of setting installation settngs and have reached debconf, anyone got a sec? | 13:45 |
| babolat | Slart: I'm looking at some bugs reported just like yours.. reading up.. | 13:45 |
| fiyawerx | anyone else having issues with java in firefox? can't seem to get it to load | 13:45 |
| legend2440 | maunykah_: for example your last line says deb-src http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu hardy-security multiverse mine will say deb-src http://ubuntu.media.mit.edu/ubuntu/ hardy-security multiverse because i am using mit server | 13:45 |
| fiyawerx | sun java, that is | 13:45 |

| maunykah_ | oh ok | 13:45 |
| v0lksman | MrFawkes: you can run dpkg -l from the CLI.... | 13:46 |
| maunykah_ | should I paste that? | 13:46 |
| inertial | georgesa: wget | 13:46 |
| MrFawkes | v0lksman: ah, that's what i need. thanks. | 13:46 |
| v0lksman | MrFawkes: you may need to grep it to trim it down a bit though | 13:46 |
| inertial | georgesa: wget -r url pretty much | 13:46 |
| timr92 | someone help me? where is the public folder that bluez talks about? | 13:46 |
| georgesa | yea | 13:46 |

| hansderagon | Greetings again. So, there is no way from the menus to setup the level of volumes of the different audio devices? I have to add the applet to a panel to access them? | 13:47 |

| nickthorley | hi all - i have added a ndis driver on 8.04 but the network settings from the windows drivers gui is greyed out - is this due to network manager having control of it | 13:47 |
| oga | tyler_roach i have but i'm trying to remember what i changed itt from etc. | 13:48 |
| oga | brb | 13:48 |
| neeto | Is there a way to globally disable gnome tooltips? | 13:48 |
| maunykah_ | just so I don't mess it up again, I would paste the lines that I deleted and then afterwards put a # on the lines that stated that I need to add the # symbol? | 13:48 |
| derspankster | anyone know how to scale vncviewer? | 13:48 |
| tyler_roach | oga run 'strace sudo su -' as root and see what happens. | 13:48 |
| maunykah_ | thanks a great deal legend2440. I was so terrified that I would have to re-install kubuntu | 13:48 |
| legend2440 | maunykah_: they already have ## | 13:48 |
| babolat | Slart: have u upgraded that lappy from gutsy to hardy? | 13:48 |
| maunykah_ | you mean on your list right? | 13:49 |

| ceacro | I am worried about installing ubuntu | 13:51 |
| mystic | must be a hard problem to fix then if no one can help me :( | 13:51 |

| ceacro | it showed a screen saying ACPI Exception (acpi_processor-0681): AE_NOT_FOUND, Processor Device is not present [20060707] | 13:51 |
| legend2440 | maunykah_: anyway there is nothing wrong with your sources.list so that is not your problem. run sudo apt-get update after you restore yhe missing lines and see if you get any errors. ok? | 13:51 |
| roxahris | Processor device!? | 13:51 |
| ceacro | and it does not start booting | 13:52 |
| roxahris | Isn't that... the CPU? | 13:52 |

| fde | frank_: whats up? | 13:56 |
| Slart | babolat: thanks for the help | 13:56 |
| chell | how much should I use for /, swap and /home | 13:56 |
| Crashed | Hey guys, I'm worried about memory consumption | 13:56 |
| babolat | Slart: np | 13:56 |
| mystic | it scans whats connected i beleave babolat | 13:56 |
| Crashed | So I checked top, and I have 11 of these: 4831 root 154112 kB /usr/sbin/apache2 -k start | 13:56 |
| fiyawerx | fde: that wants to remove ubuntu-restricted-extras, also netbeans, along with some other stuff | 13:56 |
| Crashed | So do I have 11 of those? | 13:56 |
| fiyawerx | when i try to remove openjdk | 13:56 |
| chell | I was planning to use 40 GB for /, 6 GB for swap (got 4 GB RAM) and the rest for /home | 13:56 |
| Crashed | So why do* | 13:56 |
| bogey- | Swap space should be totla system ram multplied by 4 | 13:57 |
| frank_ | hi fde and others: i can't get synaptec to look for packages; i assume this is because of the proxy server here at work. any ideas? | 13:57 |
| fde | chell: make / no smaller than 5gigs... swap should be 2gigs... /home is whatever you plan to use for your stuff... | 13:57 |
| chell | okay, so 10 GB for / should suffice? | 13:57 |
| MrFawkes | bogey-: what!? | 13:57 |
| babolat | mystic: and this happened when u tried to install via Wubi? | 13:57 |
| fde | frank_: Settings > Preferences > Network tab is set correctly? | 13:57 |
| bogey- | chell: yes | 13:57 |

| hummesse | bogey-, usually you have 1½ times total system ram | 13:57 |
| bogey- | chell: i assume you are doing a separate partition for /home and for /usr | 13:57 |
| dim | ccess | 13:58 |
| dim | <frank_> could i ask someone a question about | 13:58 |
| mystic | babolat yes it does | 13:58 |
| chell | bogey-: just a separate one for /home | 13:58 |
| chell | not for /usr | 13:58 |
| fiyawerx | fde: thanks, removing the old ones did it, that was a pain | 13:58 |
| frank_ | fde: yes | 13:58 |
| bogey- | chell: ok | 13:58 |
| babolat | Solusian: i thought so. even the guys who reported those bugs didnt get very far anyways | 13:58 |
| chell | bogey-: by the way, should I use a separate one for /usr | 13:58 |
| bogey- | chell: 1.5 times system ram is in adequate under heavy use. Remember that when linux runs out of VM it stops running. | 13:58 |
| AnRkey_ | how do i install xmms or audacious on ubuntu hardy? | 13:58 |
| fde | fiyawerx: ahh... it shouldn't... you're doing it via 'sudo apt-get remove <package>' not synaptic or aptitude? | 13:58 |
| fiyawerx | hah, actually.. the test on java.com now says "You are using a newer version of JRE than the current version available on java.com" | 13:58 |
| elektronik123456 | i am patient .... | 13:58 |
| bogey- | Anr: apt-get install xmms | 13:58 |

| crash91 | Im having X problems. When i log in all is see is a black desktop with awn at the bottom could someone help me solve this? | 13:59 |

| frank_ | fde: not sure if i understand you | 13:59 |
| dsehl | random thought ... it seems audacious is finally stable, ver 1.5.0 - im happy with it... old version use to crash a lot ! | 13:59 |
| frank_ | can i private msg you? | 13:59 |
| mystic | no error just hangs on that | 13:59 |

| AnRkey_ | chell, you don't need swap | 14:00 |
| hummesse | you would never try to run anything that takes 5 times you system ram. | 14:00 |
| maunykah_ | ok here is the update: the error message is still there | 14:00 |
| fde | fiyawerx: yeah... don't use aptitude ... it'll remove suggests too. | 14:00 |
| marcelo1 | I configure my sound card with alsaconf in Debian, how can I do this on Ubuntu? | 14:00 |
| mystic | starting hardware abstraction layer hald and nothing | 14:00 |
| AnRkey_ | chell, you can make it 1gb to be safe if you want | 14:00 |
| babolat | Solusian: hmmm... can't get it though. automounting hasnt anything to do with it right? but try it anyways.. nothing to lose. | 14:00 |
| fde | fiyawerx: just do sudo apt-get remove | 14:00 |
| chell | AnRkey_: I'm using 32 bit Ubuntu though, so I won't be able to use all of my RAM | 14:00 |
| chell | (but 32 bit is just more compatible in terms of flash, etc) | 14:00 |
| Solusian | Yeah, I reinstalled 8.04 two times yesterday. It worked perfectly fine the second time with everything I needed installed. | 14:00 |
| AnRkey_ | 32bit supports up to 4gb | 14:00 |
| cosminb | what partitioning tool do you guys recommend for ubuntu? I have some free space (lots) on my laptop, I want to create new partitions... ran out of space ;) | 14:00 |
| Solusian | Then when I went for the auto-mounting it just stopped working. | 14:00 |
| Tu13es | anyone got a wired Mighty Mouse working before? | 14:01 |
| Solusian | Right now KwifiManager is saying that it cannot find the access point | 14:01 |
| MrFawkes | cosminb: cfdisk, oer, er, gnuparted | 14:01 |

| MrFawkes | rym: no idea, really, since i didn't use it at all | 14:02 |
| fde | fiyawerx: it is the current alternative providing java | 14:02 |
| rym | Ah | 14:02 |
| AnRkey_ | bazhang, the package that is | 14:02 |
| fiyawerx | fde: yeah but shouldn't netbeans be able to use either that or sun jdk? | 14:02 |
| maunykah_ | oh my gosh it works!!! Thanks soooo much! | 14:03 |
| AnRkey_ | and xmms was removed up stream | 14:03 |

| fiyawerx | heh | 14:03 |
| fde | fiyawerx: update-alternatives --list java | 14:03 |
| fiyawerx | wonder if i install netbeans, let it install openjdk, then remove jdk again | 14:03 |
| mystic | nope goes through all the boot up and i can see it then gets to "starting hardware abstraction layer hald" and hangs | 14:03 |
| MrFawkes | rever: man lsof | 14:03 |
| babolat | rever: check with SysMon? | 14:03 |
| legend2440 | maunykah_: debtags worked? | 14:03 |

| maunykah_ | yes it worked perfectly legend2440=) | 14:04 |

| v0lksman | MrFawkes: check out http://www.ubuntu-unleashed.com/2008/04/howto-restore-all-installed-packages-in.html just happened upon the article and thought it may help! | 14:06 |
| fiyawerx | fde: thanks, that did the trick, guess i just need to settle for having openjdk installed | 14:06 |
| fde | fiyawerx: yup... now it should accept removal of openjdk/icedtea stuff | 14:06 |
| fiyawerx | oh | 14:06 |
| fiyawerx | nope | 14:06 |
| fiyawerx | still wants to uninstall netbeans | 14:06 |

| fde | fiyawerx: then I'm confused... I don't use netbeans... but you'd think suns software would play nice with other sun software... heh | 14:07 |
| bogey- | How can I manually configure an IP address and connect to a wireless network that does not use WEP or WPA? | 14:07 |

| fiyawerx | maybe incorrectly set as a dependency somewhere | 14:07 |
| bazhang | bogey-: you mean the command line? | 14:07 |

| bazhang | bogey what exactly do you wish then please clarify thanks | 14:13 |
| fiyawerx | can get 6.1 that way too | 14:13 |

| Speckal | can I remove the "Places" menu from the menu bar? under "Edit Menus" I don't see a way to do that | 14:14 |
| _adriaan | fde: you apparently _have_ to install openjdk if you want to use netbeans, it doesn't install without it, even if you have sun-java | 14:14 |
| bogey- | crash91: that is a good one, I assume you never get to the login screen | 14:14 |
| fde | _adriaan: it's depends conflict with that though... so I'm not sure why that's the case... | 14:14 |
| crash91 | bogey-: no, i log in and then i get a black desktop. | 14:14 |
| fiyawerx | it's probably a second or third tier depend | 14:15 |
| fde | _adriaan: the depends state you can use openjdk OR sun-java6 packages. | 14:15 |
| crash91 | bogey-: i see the login alright, but not my desktop | 14:15 |
| fiyawerx | someone typo'd somewhere :) | 14:15 |
| bogey- | crash91: and you are using the live cd? | 14:15 |

| fde | fiyawerx: similarities between you that isn't the case for me: openjdk | 14:18 |
| _adriaan | and I've had it since yesterday (when firefox prompted me to install openjdk) | 14:19 |
| babolat | mystic: right | 14:19 |
| pro-rsoft | sudo apt-get purge gnome-panel, but that won't just remove "Places" | 14:19 |
| derspankster | pro-rsoft, are we talking about Awn preferences? | 14:19 |
| fiyawerx | fde: do you have the sun jdk installed or just the jre? | 14:19 |
| pro-rsoft | Awn? whats that | 14:19 |
| _adriaan | jdk | 14:19 |
| fiyawerx | pro-rsoft, avant-window-navigator | 14:19 |
| fde | fiyawerx: right now, just the jre | 14:19 |
| _adriaan | it was needed by netbeans (before this) | 14:19 |
| bogey- | crash91: you need to login with the fail safe terminal option, so at the log in screen there is a wheel at the bottom left called option, click on it, click select session, click failsafe gnome, then login | 14:19 |
| fiyawerx | fde: that may be why | 14:19 |
| Kinetic | !awn | pro-rsoft | 14:19 |
| ubottu | pro-rsoft: Avant Window Navigator, is a dock-like navigation bar for the linux desktop that positions itself at the bottom of the screen. Homepage http://wiki.awn-project.org/ Awn-Manager can be found the Gutsy !backports repository and in Universe in Hardy | 14:19 |
| pro-rsoft | no, you got the wrong person derspankster :P | 14:19 |
| bogey- | crash91: you need to login with the fail safe terminal option, so at the log in screen there is a wheel at the bottom left called option, click on it, click select session, click failsafe gnome, then login. finally sudo apt-get remove --purge compiz-core desktop-effects | 14:20 |
| fiyawerx | somehow it might accept the jre if you install it specifically | 14:20 |
| fiyawerx | but it's not liking the jdk | 14:20 |
| blinkiz | I have put one of my own modules in modules path on my computer. What command should I run so modprobe can find it? | 14:20 |
| derspankster | pro-rsoft, AWN Avant Window navigater | 14:20 |
| pro-rsoft | i know, but i wasnt talking about that | 14:20 |
| crash91 | bogey-: ok can i reinstall then later? | 14:20 |
| crash91 | bogey-: compiz i mean | 14:20 |
| derspankster | pro-rsoft, OK NP | 14:20 |
| bogey- | crash91: yes you can reinstall compiz with sudo apt-get install compiz-core desktop-effects | 14:20 |
| hooer | ikonia, well the UUID's that were in the mdadm.conf matched the mdstat ones, but not the fstab or /dev/disk/by-uuid one's | 14:21 |

| pro-rsoft | does anyone know a good graphical cvs client that is NOT kde and NOT tk? | 14:21 |
| Kinetic | pro-rsoft what were you talking about? | 14:21 |
| crash91 | bogey-: ok i will try that | 14:21 |
| bogey- | crash91: then when you are done recovering you can work out the video issue later | 14:21 |
| fde | fiyawerx: these 'libnb-whatever' packages REALLY aren't helping diagnoses of why openjdk is required :/ | 14:21 |
| pro-rsoft | Kinetic, about cvs clients but someone thought i was talking about AWN | 14:21 |
| Kinetic | ahh | 14:21 |
| pro-rsoft | so clearly a misunderstanding :) | 14:21 |
| crash91 | bogey-: ok doing it now | 14:21 |
| fde | fiyawerx: libnb-apisupport depends like 6 more libnb-* packages... heh | 14:21 |

| goo | Hello. I have two Nvidia fx4600, and try to get SLI working on 64bit Hardy. I am getting this error message: "Chipset not approved for SLI" in Xorg.0.log. Does this mean I am scr*wed, and just have to wait for NVIDIA to come up with new drivers? | 14:25 |
| bogey- | pro-rsoft: so you want a graphical cvs client that does not use any graphical interfaces? | 14:25 |
| ikonia | hooer: and then from the replacament disk it shows 0 | 14:25 |
| fiyawerx | fde: how can we report that? | 14:25 |
| ikonia | hooer: as in zero disks in the array | 14:25 |

| fde | fiyawerx: it's the only case where there isn't a depends on one or the other too... so you want to file a bug on that? | 14:26 |

| bogey- | pro-rsoft: what about java based? | 14:26 |
| hooer | ikonia, well no thats the weird thing. it stops the boot process cos it says that it can't mount /dev/md0 as root..somethnig about device not ready or busy.. but then if i type "mount /dev/md0 /root" that works! and it shows 2/2 drives | 14:26 |

| tony403 | bazhang, yes, to access all my stuff from awn menu i access in gnome menu | 14:26 |

| demonspork | idyllic, I think that it won't cache the thumb if the thumb itself is larger than 5mb. also, there is a difference between caching and displaying. Just because it isn't cached doesn't mean it won't display it | 14:47 |

| ikonia | hooer: I can see the super blocks on my devices, just not on the meta devices | 14:50 |
| demonspork | I haven't had a problem with an upgrade from gutsy to hardy, but I have had all sorts of trouble with my clean install | 14:50 |
| bazhang | !away > Scrounch | 14:50 |
| idyllic | demonspork: =O I guess I will keep on posting my question then. Maybe i will get a clue or two. | 14:50 |
| hooer | ikonia, ah i see what you mean.. i didn't put the partion numbers | 14:50 |
| idyllic | demonspork: many thanks though | 14:50 |
| Scunizi | My first couple of shutdowns on a hardy upgrade worked fine.. now it hangs. Any way to fix this? | 14:51 |
| RandomCake | demonspork: the main problem I've had with my fresh install of Hardy was that it got the Grub settings wrong! :P | 14:51 |
| ikonia | hooer: yeah, you need a partition (remember - type fd) rather than the device | 14:51 |
| Milos_SD | How can I get Nokia 6280 to work with Ubuntu via USB cable? | 14:51 |
| hooer | ikonia, yep. i can see the info now. not sure whatto look for to help my problem tho :P | 14:51 |
| southafrikanse | hello. I think I must have destroyed my gdm theme and now I can't fix it :/ | 14:51 |
| demonspork | RandomCake, I haven't had gutsy install grub for me, I have another partition that I use for grub and I just add things into there when I need them | 14:51 |
| crash91 | bazhang: do i just put the resolution and bitrate in quotes next to it? | 14:52 |
| neeto | I want to know how to change the color of the tooltip at the gdm-login screen... does anyone know how to do this? | 14:52 |
| ikonia | hooer: well as long as your devices have a super block on, that should all be fine | 14:52 |
| crash91 | bazhang: refresh rate** sorry :P | 14:52 |
| idyllic | Hi, my nautilus on Hardy still shows thumbnail/preview on file larger than 5mb, even though i have set the preference not to cache thumb larger than 5mb in both nautilus and gconf. Any fix for this? | 14:52 |
| fisfia | this is my loginscreen after installing xubuntu: http://www.pici.se/258256/ what can I do about that? | 14:52 |
| Scunizi | idyllic, did you restart? | 14:52 |
| hooer | ikonia, yeh they're fine in normal boot, just wish i could boot with either drive failed :/ | 14:53 |
| bazhang | crash91: well the xorg is a bit different; dont totally have all the ins and outs of it myself--worth a try though | 14:53 |
| idyllic | Scunizi: haha I used for a week. | 14:53 |
| crash91 | bazhang: is this line better? modeline "640x480@60""1280x800@60" 25.2 640 656 752 800 480 490 492 525 -vsync -hsync | 14:53 |

| idyllic | Scunizi: i mean ya i restarted daily | 14:53 |
| demonspork | fisfia, what graphics card do you have? | 14:53 |
| ndo | hi guys. ive a little question. does dvdrom drive alweys also cdrw drive or not perse? plz, ty. Have a nice day! :) | 14:54 |
| bogey- | crash91: what are you trying to accomplish now? | 14:54 |
| fisfia | demonspork: dont know what do I write i the shell to see? | 14:54 |
| bazhang | crash91: under monitor and likely screen need "1280x800@60" | 14:54 |
| Scunizi | idyllic, that's my only idea.. I think there's an update to nautilus coming.. I saw it in proposed repos.. don't know if it will fix this or not. | 14:54 |
| Waistless | bazhang: nothing to suggest? i'll try fully overwriting the xorg.conf with nvidia X server settings, hopefully that'll fix it up | 14:55 |
| bogey- | bazhang: 1024/768 is more safe | 14:55 |

| hooer | ikonia, i still don't know whether it worked or not doing lilo, but surely it must have done something otherwise the replacement disk wouldn't even start loading Lilo at all | 15:00 |
| atlonchik | can you help me? | 15:00 |

| ikonia | hooer: I'll explain where I was going with gurb, then I'll see if we can map it thorugh to lilo | 15:00 |

| fde | Barnose: Keep in mind, no one here made you use Ubuntu/Linux... we are volunteers, we don't appreciate the negativity, there are millions perfectly happy with Linux. | 15:00 |

| hooer | okie | 15:00 |
| ikonia | hooer: stop me if I don't expalin clearly | 15:00 |
| Myrtti | Barnose: !attitude | 15:00 |
| bogey- | babolat: chgrp = change group , chuser = change user | 15:00 |
| Myrtti | !attitude | Barnose | 15:00 |
| ubottu | Barnose: The people here are volunteers, your attitude should reflect that. Answers are not always available. See http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines | 15:00 |
| ikonia | hooer: from a grub point of view you have 3 disks, 2 physical disks and 1 meta device. | 15:00 |
| atlonchik | ðóññêèé òóò ïîíèìàþò? | 15:00 |
| hooer | ok | 15:00 |
| babolat | bogey-: thanks.. it's home > user2 > music | 15:00 |
| ikonia | hooer: the meta device is of no interest to grub - despite initrd and all that | 15:00 |
| fde | Myrtti: He's +b just no one really explained why, so I thought I'd tell him. | 15:01 |
| bogey- | babolat: who do you want to be able to access it? | 15:01 |
| ndo | Dr_willis: ty, thats logical. But if im looking for a cheap sollution. And i want to look for a dvd rom drive instead of dvdrw drive. do i have to be looking for dvd rom + cd rw in one or just any dvd rom knowing it already is able to write cds. thats what im asking myself. :) | 15:01 |
| ikonia | hooer: grub will read from the physical disk | 15:01 |
| ikonia | hooer: follow so far | 15:01 |
| babolat | bogey-: muyself | 15:01 |
| hooer | yep | 15:01 |
| hooer | just the MBR tho? | 15:01 |
| ikonia | hooer: actually, thats not true, it will read the boot data from the physical disk, but use the boot file system from the meta device | 15:01 |
| ikonia | hooer: exactly, just he mrb and in grubs case (not lilo) the menu.lst | 15:01 |
| hooer | yeh ok that makes sense | 15:01 |
| ikonia | hooer: with me ? | 15:01 |
| ikonia | hooer: ok great. | 15:01 |
| ikonia | hooer: so a normal grub setup on a raid disk would be 2 grub install, one on eacvh mbr. | 15:02 |
| hooer | yep | 15:02 |
| bogey- | babolat: ok the simple answer is chmod -R 777 /home/user2/music the complex answer is to create a group and put yourself and user2 in the group and do a chgrp mygroup /home/user2/music | 15:02 |
| ikonia | hooer: however the "root" and "setup" options for grub would change as you don't want the mbr on disk 2 looking for the boot partition on disk 1, as if disk1 is dead - it's a pointless boot | 15:02 |
| ikonia | hooer: yes ? | 15:02 |
| bogey- | babolat: i forget the sudo | 15:02 |
| ndo | Dr_willis: i guess ive already founded the wight answer, there are dvd/cd only readers to. :) | 15:02 |
| bogey- | babolat: sudo chown.... sudo chgrp.... | 15:03 |
| babolat | bogey-: ok.. trying it now | 15:03 |
| hooer | hang on.. | 15:03 |
| Scunizi | Other than a reinstall, it there another way to fix Hardy's shutdown freeze? | 15:03 |
| ikonia | hooer: (remeber this is just grub, not lilo | 15:03 |
| hooer | ah i see | 15:03 |
| hooer | ooh i see where this is going... maybe :P | 15:03 |
| ikonia | hooer: ok, so for disk one your grub install would be (example) hd0 for setup and hd0,1 for root | 15:04 |
| ikonia | and then hd1 for setup and hd1,0 for root on disk 2 | 15:04 |
| ikonia | hooer: now lilo is different as it writes everything to the MBR | 15:04 |
| hooer | ah | 15:04 |
| fisfia | this is my loginscreen after installing xubuntu: http://www.pici.se/258256/ what can I do about that? | 15:04 |
| ikonia | hooer: however the data that lilo writes is basiclly the same data as grub wants, but hard coded into the mbr, hence every change requires a lilo -v | 15:04 |
| bazhang | https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+question/30768 Scunizi this may be of interest | 15:04 |
| hooer | -v being/ | 15:05 |
| Scunizi | Thans bazhang | 15:05 |
| hooer | ? | 15:05 |
| babolat | bogey-: i get No such file or directory.. i'm putting in the right directory i think | 15:05 |
| ikonia | hooer: I'm wondering if the boot sector on mbr disk2, actually contains pointers for disk1 | 15:05 |
| ikonia | hooer: verbose | 15:05 |
| ikonia | hooer: think of lilo as hardcoded grub options | 15:05 |
| hooer | yeh that would probably explain the weird behaviour | 15:05 |
| bogey- | babolat: ok, uhm, cd to the directory you want to change and type in pwd and tell me the output | 15:05 |
| ikonia | hooer: does it make sense what I'm saying | 15:05 |
| hooer | yep definately | 15:05 |
| babolat | bogey-: doing :) | 15:05 |
| ikonia | hooer: more so for raid as the lilo.con will be only 1 file | 15:05 |
| bazhang | http://nancib.wordpress.com/2008/04/29/is-ubuntu-freezing-when-you-try-to-quit-i-have-a-probable-solution-for-you/ Scunizi this might help as well | 15:06 |
| babolat | bogey-: can't cd either ?@#$? | 15:06 |
| hooer | so i need to find out what lilo is doing | 15:06 |
| ikonia | hooer: my personal opinion (just an opinion) is this behaviour is due to lilo using a shared hardcoded liilo.conf for both disks | 15:06 |
| babolat | bogey-: are directories Caps sensitive? | 15:06 |
| hooer | well the conf file seems to be really basic. i guess the problems are in the MBR as you say? | 15:06 |
| ikonia | hooer: yes, the info gets written to the mbr staticlly, rather than dynamiclly | 15:07 |
| babolat | bogey-: oh.. so they ARE caps sensitive | 15:07 |
| ikonia | hooer: hence the need for a lilo after each kernel change for example | 15:07 |
| bogey- | babolat: yes they are :) | 15:07 |
| ikonia | hooer: where as grub is dynamic from teh menu.lst | 15:07 |
| === evo is now known as evolvedlight | ||
| hooer | ...which is not stored in MBR | 15:07 |
| bogey- | babolat: is your matter now resolved? | 15:07 |
| ikonia | hooer: exactly ! | 15:07 |
| === MTeck is now known as MTecknology | ||
| Scunizi | bazhang, thanks.. I'll give those a try.. irritating issue.. fortunatly /home is on a separate partition. | 15:08 |
| ikonia | hooer: which grub would have 3 copies of, 1 shared on the meta device and the 2 exact copies on the physical disks that grub would read from | 15:08 |
| babolat | bogey-: yeah.. figured that out.. hehe... it's figured out.. thanks | 15:08 |
| bogey- | Scunizi: always a wide partition move | 15:08 |
| ikonia | hooer: do you see where I'm going with this ? | 15:08 |
| bazhang | Scunizi: couple of launchpad bugs as well if you are interested | 15:08 |
| hooer | yep | 15:08 |
| bogey- | babolat no problem | 15:08 |
| ikonia | hooer: perfect | 15:08 |
| MTecknology | What do I want to use for an SSH key? RSA or DSA? | 15:08 |
| ikonia | MTecknology: your call, dsa is more supported these days | 15:08 |
| schitzo | yo | 15:08 |
| hooer | ikonia, maybe it'd be easier to replace lilo with grub rather than decipher what lilo is doing? | 15:08 |
| Fritzel | is there any specific package I can remove that will remove all the kde apps installed by accident when I installed the kde package? | 15:09 |
| MTecknology | ikonia, aaside from supported, what's the dif? | 15:09 |
| Milos_SD | How can I get Nokia 6280 to work with Ubuntu via USB cable? | 15:09 |
| ikonia | hooer: thats how I'd do it, it's been a while since I used lilo with raid, but I do remember a few issues with it | 15:09 |
| voodoo | i have some problems with audacious cueplugin? it doesn't read any cue... anyone knows why? | 15:09 |
| schitzo | secret | 15:09 |
| ikonia | MTecknology: different encyption patterns | 15:09 |
| bazhang | !hi | schitzo | 15:09 |
| ubottu | schitzo: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu! | 15:09 |
| MTecknology | ikonia, i mean, is there much difference as far as performance or security? | 15:09 |
| ikonia | MTecknology: performance - well, it's a hardcoded file, no. Security, not really it may take 30001 years to break dsa rather than 29999 to do rsa | 15:10 |
| MTecknology | lol | 15:10 |
| MTecknology | ty | 15:10 |
| hooer | ikonia, thanks heaps for that.. i couldn't find anything similar on teh webs :p | 15:10 |
| ikonia | hooer: no problem, I use raid a lot so I'm happy to spend time with you on this, lilo + raid = rare these days so I can't see you finding much data | 15:10 |
| ikonia | hooer: I'm working from memory on the lilo options so hence why I'm slow putting this together | 15:11 |
| hooer | ikonia, is there many danger points to installnig grub? can i just apt-get install and verify the config | 15:11 |
| MTecknology | ikonia, Is there any way to encrypt RAID? | 15:11 |
| bazhang | Fritzel: sadly no; let me find a link for you | 15:11 |
| MTecknology | ikonia, or do I need LVM for that? | 15:12 |
| ikonia | hooer: I can't see any danger points, install it, then do 2 manual installs to the boot sector of each disk | 15:12 |
| ikonia | MTecknology: no, you can encypt raid, you don't need lvm | 15:12 |
| ikonia | MTecknology: just think of it as a disk device | 15:12 |
| ikonia | MTecknology: works exactly the same | 15:12 |
| bazhang | http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/puregnome Fritzel | 15:12 |
| MTecknology | ikonia, How do I set that up then? I don't recall seeing an option for that in the installer | 15:12 |
| Fritzel | bazhang, it's not super important but I went from having a nice limited number of applications in my menus to not being able to find anything, just once I want to install the dev package when I intend to | 15:12 |
| Fritzel | bazhang, thank you | 15:12 |
| ikonia | MTecknology: Ii assume your using software raid ? | 15:13 |
| MTecknology | ikonia, ya | 15:13 |
| bazhang | Fritzel: I understand; having kde3 kde4 and gnome here | 15:13 |
| ikonia | MTecknology: I think you have to do it post install | 15:13 |
| ikonia | MTecknology: my personal view is there is no real reason to encypt root file systems unless your working in a major finaicial institute | 15:13 |
| ikonia | MTecknology: but I can appricaite say a /home directory | 15:13 |
| mystic | bobolat: its not wubi that crashes its after Ubuntu install - I reboot to get it to boot into Ubuntu - I see the splash screen and then it hangs when it gets to "Starting abstraction layer hald" and wont go any further ??? or anyone else | 15:14 |

I want to run email and jabber on my server. I'd like to separate the email from /home but still use Maildir format. How hard would that be? | 15:15 |
| vi390 | bogey-: aah o thats fine thanks | 15:15 |
| ikonia | MTecknology: not hard at all, mail delivery is the thing that defines where mail actually goes | 15:15 |
| ikonia | MTecknology: some of my machines have it in /var for example | 15:15 |

| ikonia | hooer: whoaaaaa you don't install it to the mbr | 15:16 |
| Fritzel | bazhang, thanks again | 15:16 |
| bazhang | Fritzel: removing the kde stuff will not do that | 15:16 |
| azexian | hi, I'm having problems burning a cd in ubuntu 8.04 (fine in 7.10) my ide drives are coming up as /dev/sr0 (scsi) which seems odd, and hdparm shows 'Inappropriate ioctl for device' anyone got any ideas? | 15:16 |
| ikonia | hooer: think about it, when you first turn on your machine - md0 doesn't exist | 15:16 |
| ikonia | hooer: only sda1 and sdb1 do | 15:16 |
| hooer | ooh :p | 15:16 |

| ikonia | hooer: I wouldn't use gurb install in your senario | 15:17 |
| jharkn | pawan: in your home dir | 15:17 |
| ikonia | hooer: I'd use "grub" and then the grub shell commands to make sure I got it right | 15:17 |
| hooer | aah | 15:17 |
| pawan | thanks | 15:17 |
| arvind_khadri | ikonia, actually yeah but i just left the prob all alone...its about the booting bar the orange one...it doesnt show up since i got 7.10 | 15:17 |
| jharkn | np | 15:17 |

| Fritzel | bazhang, -nod- unfortunatly that wasn't the case | 15:18 |
| arvind_khadri | ikonia, :) you cant?? | 15:18 |
| azexian | amenado: well this issue wasn't in 7.10, and I'm sure that my drive used to be /dev/hda | 15:18 |
| ikonia | I can't what ? | 15:18 |
| amenado | neeto-> you can do a ps aux| grep gdm to search for it? | 15:18 |

| neeto | In gnome, is there a way to change the appearance of windows run as root? | 15:19 |
| amenado | azexian-> well things do changed, perhaps if you look into udev, but thats one thing i dislike of ubuntu using udev, its much more difficult to find out hte rules and events | 15:19 |
| mystic | pasted | 15:20 |
| arvind_khadri | ikonia, ??? | 15:20 |
| ikonia | arvind_khadri: what ? | 15:20 |

| hooer | i think i just borked my system :/ | 15:20 |
| amenado | mystic-> im wanting to see your menu.lst | 15:20 |
| ikonia | hooer: really ? | 15:20 |
| azexian | amenado: hm, it's very strange, I can't burn, it gives strange errors, and that hdparm thing is very odd, I'm sure someone else must have had this.. | 15:20 |
| XGenster | so there is no way to upgrade unless u have a "alternate installation CD." or and internet connection ? | 15:20 |
| amenado | mystic-> not here, in pastebin okay? | 15:20 |
| arvind_khadri | ikonia, i meant am ready to get helped | 15:20 |
| amro | hi. is there a minimal CD that installs from the internet? | 15:20 |

| ikonia | arvind_khadri: ahhh, sorry, I thought you said I couldn't help, I missed part. sorry | 15:21 |
| amenado | azexian-> are you sure you can use hdparm on a ide? not sure if thats okay to use with scsci | 15:21 |
| ikonia | hooer: as I said, I wouldn't have done grub-install | 15:21 |
| hooer | yeh i did it too soon :/ | 15:21 |
| ikonia | hooer: for your config you really needed to do it manually | 15:21 |
| arvind_khadri | ikonia, i just meant that i had stopped worrying about it :) | 15:21 |

| linuxvacuum | I cannot set my sound volume with alsamixer! I get : alsamixer: function snd_mixer_load failed: No such file or directory | 15:21 |
| amenado | amro-> yes, you have a linux now? then you can download debootstrap and use that | 15:21 |
| azexian | amenado: yeah, I thought that too, but it seems to work on my /dev/sda* (although that is ide with a ide-sata converter) | 15:21 |
| amenado | azexian-> i would google for more info on that if I were you, not too sure right of what causes that issue for you | 15:22 |
| fde | ikonia: grub-install is necessary to get grub into the mbr... grub-install /dev/<raid_base_device> (probably md rather then md0 for instance) | 15:22 |
| ryanryan | is there a flag to make netstat display ip4 addresses instead of ip6? | 15:22 |
| ikonia | fde: no it's not | 15:23 |
| arvind_khadri | anybody around to help me with the loading bar issue...its not showing up since 7.10...am on 8.04 now...kernel hasnt been tweaked | 15:23 |
| ikonia | fde: thats not he the only way to install grub to an mbr | 15:23 |
| fde | ikonia: umm... k | 15:23 |
| amenado | fde umm grub does not even need to be in the mbr | 15:23 |
| mystic | not sure which one you want amenado as i have 2 | 15:23 |
| fde | ikonia: another way would be? | 15:23 |
| amenado | mystic paste in pastebin both..we will get an idea | 15:23 |
| bazhang | arvind_khadri: did you remove quiet from the boot params? | 15:23 |
| ikonia | fde: the user had a reasonably complex sollution, and needed a manual definition | 15:23 |
| ikonia | fde: using the grub shell | 15:23 |
| amro | amenado: yes. I see one on Debian- is there an ubuntu version or will that work fine? | 15:23 |
| azexian | amenado: hm, yeah, I have looked quite a bit, not too sure, I guess I'll take another look, or try my dvd-rw through that converter I mentioned, and the hdd straight into had, that way perhaps it'll work | 15:23 |
| mystic | this one ? D:\ubuntu\install\boot\grub | 15:23 |
| amenado | fed use also dd :P | 15:23 |
| arvind_khadri | bazhang, no i didnt | 15:23 |
| ikonia | amro: yes, grub does have to be on the mbr | 15:23 |
| azexian | amenado: thanks for trying =) | 15:23 |
| fde | ikonia: which would do the same thing as grub-install ... via 'install' | 15:24 |
| ikonia | fde: no it's not grub install guesses for you | 15:24 |
| ikonia | fde: hence why some peoples installs are borked | 15:24 |
| fde | amenado: hah... well that's cheating... also hard to guess bits required... I'm not aware of how at least. | 15:24 |
| fde | ikonia: some peoples installs are b0rked because they didn't want to replace MBR probably... | 15:25 |
| amenado | amro then download debootstrap and use that to install ubuntu from the net..its the most basic one and i dont think it even have a kernel | 15:25 |
| ikonia | fde: tell you what, you fix his issues then | 15:25 |

| tony403 | anyone know how to uninstall gnome-panel without uninstalling gnome-desktop? | 15:26 |
| mystic | amenado: pasted both as im not sure which is which | 15:26 |
| amro | amenado: I found a MinimalCD | 15:26 |
| ikonia | hooer: you need to do 2 grub installs to the native partitions of your disk | 15:26 |
| hooer | ikonia, so now i can correct my grub mess | 15:26 |
| bazhang | tony403: ubuntu-desktop? | 15:26 |
| amenado | mystic we will take a look, and maybe there are some thing you can do find out which is which | 15:26 |
| tony403 | bazhang, yeah, now i've got awn installed, i want to uninstall gnome panel but it's wanting to uninstall gnome desktop too now | 15:27 |
| lordleemo | ulrich_: moin #ubuntu-de mein gute freund | 15:27 |
| amenado | amro thats a possibility, like the mini.iso, but i myself have not used those to install yet, other than debootstrap | 15:27 |
| ikonia | hooer: you need 1.) grub install to the mbr of disk1 referenceing the boot partition of disk1, you then need to do the same thing for disk b, but writing to the mbr of disk2 and refercning the boot parttion of disk2 | 15:27 |
| tony403 | bazhang, so it's safe to uninstall gnome-desktop? | 15:27 |
| linuxvacuum | alsamixer: function snd_mixer_load failed: No such file or directory | 15:27 |
| amro | amenado: thanks for the debootstrap hint. I'll use that if mini.iso proves impractical | 15:27 |
| hooer | ikonia, yep that makes sense | 15:28 |
| andreita | hello | 15:28 |
| bazhang | tony403: gnome-desktop or ubuntu-desktop? | 15:28 |
| ikonia | hooer: good good | 15:28 |
| tony403 | bazhang, gnome-desktop is what it says | 15:28 |
| amenado | amro good luck, and share the know how to us later | 15:28 |
| ejer | tony403: why would u want to? you cannot have gnome-desktop without the panel | 15:28 |
| mystic | amenado: as i have never installed with the windows installer before I am not sure where the file is but at a gues I would guess the one you want is D:\ubuntu\install\boot\grub\menu.lst. | 15:29 |
| bazhang | tony403: hang on a sec | 15:29 |

| ejer | tony403: right-click the panel and say delete this panel | 15:29 |

| tony403 | if you resize the bar, it looks like crap, reskin it, it looks like crap, etc. i've noticed this with kde and gnome panels | 15:30 |
| fde | qwiksand: should be fine... | 15:31 |

| bazhang | tony403: gnome-desktop-environment? that is the only thing I can see close to that; the ubuntu-desktop is a meta-package and is safe to remove; cannot find gnome-desktop though | 15:31 |
| amenado | qwiksand-> plenty enuff, 1.25gb of ram | 15:31 |

| Jared` | fde: Nothing really. I was more concerned of specific server modifications to the base OS like the Kernel that would be absent on a Desktop install | 16:15 |
| Myrtti | man ln | 16:15 |

| danbhfive | Jared`: if you want the server install, I would try the server cd. Don't do the alternate cd. Some alternate cds can do a server install, other cannot. I forget which | 16:17 |
| Speckal | if you walk up to an ubuntu system, how can you tell which version it is? | 16:17 |

| whileimhere | Hi I have an External USB Acer CDRW 4x4x6 that I use. Often when I insert a CDR or CD Linux does not auto-mount it. In fact often I am forced to re-boot the computer to recognize it. Can anyone tell me why or maybe how to fix this? | 16:17 |
| Jared` | danbhfive: My system appears to freeze with the server CD. That's the issue I'm experiencing | 16:18 |
| bazhang | __mork: my limited knowledge only extends to wireless; the much smarter folks here can likely help with that | 16:18 |
| Pici | justprogramming8: they are in the xscreensavers-data, xscreensavers-data-extra, xscreensavers-gl, and xscreensavers-gl-extra packages, just apt-get source packagename | 16:18 |
| PeterFA | Speckal, cat /proc/version | 16:18 |
| justprogramming8 | yup in ubuntu its name endgame | 16:18 |

I have tried unplugging it when both the computer and the CDRW burner are on and that sometimes works. Otherwise I am forced to re-boot to get it to recognize the CDRW. | 16:20 |
| fxjr | zylche, have you tried sensors-applet? | 16:20 |
| Wobe | bazhang: no, and I thought it was a good article to be aware of, sorry. | 16:20 |
| hangthedj | does Epiphany have their own irc channel? | 16:20 |
| justprogramming8 | Pici i couldnt understand | 16:20 |

| cgentry72 | bazhang, ok wasn't sure | 16:22 |
| fxjr | david_-_-, did you enabled the install guest additions? | 16:22 |
| Pici | justprogramming8: you need to determine what package the screensaver is in, then run apt-get source thepackagename | 16:22 |
| david_-_- | fxjr: yep | 16:22 |
| fxjr | cgentry72, I think you need to install it with synaptic | 16:22 |
| fxjr | ok, | 16:22 |
| justprogramming8 | how can i determine ?? | 16:22 |
| fxjr | did the virtual box additions guest cd appeared on xubuntu desktop? | 16:22 |
| cgentry72 | fxjr, i found it there.. does it load automatically on startup? | 16:23 |
| fxjr | cgentry72, nope. | 16:23 |
| Pici | justprogramming8: its in the xscreensaver-gl package | 16:23 |
| fxjr | you have to execute a script inside it | 16:23 |
| david_-_- | fxjr: not rly worried about it its just annoying sometimes lol | 16:23 |
| cgentry72 | fxjr, ok i'll figure that out then | 16:23 |

| bazhang | cgentry72: alt f2 emerald --replace | 16:23 |
| cgentry72 | bazhang, ok | 16:24 |
| bazhang | cgentry72: same with compiz; alt f2 compiz --replace ; to disable alt f2 metacity --replace | 16:24 |
| whileimhere | No ideas ? | 16:24 |
| cgentry72 | bazhang, good to know thanks | 16:25 |
| fxjr | david_-_-, rly ??? what does this stand for? | 16:25 |
| bazhang | whileimhere: best to just leave it plugged in when you start up | 16:25 |
| bazhang | fxjr: really | 16:25 |
| david_-_- | fxjr: what does what stand for? | 16:25 |
| fxjr | cgentry72, I think you can configure compiz to run it automagically for you. | 16:25 |
| fxjr | david_-_-, Whoops, sorry. wrong nick :) | 16:26 |

| ghostknife | Upgrade manager told me 8.04 is available. Is it safe to upgrade? I won't reboot and suddenly have a non-working system? I didn't have any problems with 7.10 except sometimes when I shutdown and plug out the charger during (in which case ACPI crashes and I have to force poweroff the machine) | 16:53 |
| fde | morghanphoenix: those window managers will require you to start GTK related and Gnome related libs after the session has started... so it feels slower. | 16:53 |

| MrFawkes | or on fixing it? | 16:56 |

| ubottu | lastelement0: Keyboard shortcuts can be set in System -> Preferences -> Keyboard Shortcuts. If your multimedia keys don't work with that, try the 'keytouch' package, explained at http://keytouch.sourceforge.net - See !Keyboard for changing layouts | 17:17 |
| morghanphoenix | there a manual way to install the nvidia drivers aside from the script on the nvidia page that crashes x saying there is a different version of the driver and the module the installer just compiled. | 17:17 |
| bhsx | is there a metapackage for LAMP? | 17:17 |
| hwilde | !nvidia | morghanphoenix | 17:17 |
| ubottu | morghanphoenix: For Ati/NVidia/Matrox video cards, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto | 17:18 |
| hwilde | !lampp | Bhaal | 17:18 |
| ubottu | Factoid lampp not found | 17:18 |
| hwilde | !lamp | bhsx | 17:18 |
| ubottu | bhsx: 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+) | 17:18 |

| skenmy | pmetzger: I mean binding aone key to perform a series of keystrokes | 17:18 |
| genii | bhsx: No, you need to run tasksel and select it as a task. | 17:18 |
| PeterFA | Hmm, maybe the problem is the Canadian server. | 17:18 |
| bhsx | thanks | 17:18 |
| genii | bhsx: np | 17:18 |
| ramkumar | PeterFA: are all the repositories enabled? | 17:18 |
| morghanphoenix | Yeah hwilde, that helps, just said that wasn't working and the script wasn't either | 17:18 |
| PeterFA | ramkumar, yes. | 17:19 |
| javaJake | PeterFA: can you post the output of apt-get update? | 17:19 |
| javaJake | PeterFA: pastebin.ca | 17:19 |
| mirdin76 | can anyone help me out? my install of Hardy fails at select and install right after xserver around 6% no matter which disk, drive or optical drive I use | 17:19 |
| pmetzger | skenmy: again, it depends on what you mean by that. you might mean "I want the window manager to intercept some keystrokes and do something no matter what application I'm in" or you may mean "I want this particular application to do something in response to a given keystroke" | 17:19 |
| PeterFA | javaJake, that might not be necessary because I changed the servers to the US one. | 17:19 |
| hwilde | morghanphoenix, do you have an error message or anything | 17:19 |
| bazhang | mirdin76: even the minimal? | 17:19 |
| pmetzger | mirdin76: do other versions of Ubuntu install okay? | 17:20 |
| PeterFA | javaJake, the update worked flawlessly this time. | 17:20 |
| shira | so I have an nvidia card (7 series) but it doesn't appear in the restricted drivers manager | 17:20 |
| PeterFA | javaJake, yeah, and it found firefox | 17:20 |
| javaJake | PeterFA: awlright! :D | 17:20 |
| pmetzger | unitydivide: no ideas then, right? :) | 17:20 |
| morghanphoenix | None in ubuntu, the driver manager just doesn't start, when I used the nvidia script I got plenty of errors and had to manually edit my xorg config to get back in to x | 17:20 |
| ramkumar | PeterFA: nice! it's the server then | 17:20 |
| babolat | i just got this error now. "Could not get lock /var/lib/apt/lists/loc - open (11 resource temporarily unavailable)" and "Unable to lock the list"... what does this mean? | 17:20 |
| skenmy | pmetzger: well, I specifically want it to work with irssi, but I am unable to do so, so i'm currently wanting to get it just intercepting a keystroke and running a series - I don't use the keys for any other reaspm | 17:20 |
| PeterFA | javaJake, I'm going to write Canonical and let them know there may be a problem with there Canadian servers. | 17:20 |
| skenmy | *reason | 17:20 |
| hischild | !aptfix | babolat | 17:21 |
| ubottu | babolat: If an APT front-end crashed and your database is locked, try this in a !terminal: « sudo fuser -vki /var/lib/dpkg/lock;sudo dpkg --configure -a » | 17:21 |
| gangsterlicious | ubuntu-xen-server contains hypervisor PKG 3.2. but ioemu still on 3.1. what's the way to get ioemu working? uninstall all xen-3.2* pkgs and install 3.1 ones? | 17:21 |
| PeterFA | javaJake, and it installed fine. | 17:21 |
| PeterFA | javaJake, not a hitch. | 17:21 |
| javaJake | PeterFA: OK. I'd stick with the Canadian servers after this has passed: the main servers get really slow sometimes. | 17:21 |
| UnityDivide | pmetzger, not a one, sorry :. | 17:21 |
| UnityDivide | :/ | 17:21 |
| javaJake | PeterFA: especially on release day. :P | 17:21 |
| PeterFA | javaJake, yeah, but the Canadian server doesn't work. | 17:21 |
| neocrypter | anyone haveing issues getting the restricted ATI drivers to work on the new ubuntu release? | 17:22 |
| babolat | hischild: what does <<sudo fuser -vki /var/lib/dpkg/lock;sudo dpkg --configure -a>> do? | 17:22 |
| mophead | Morning y'all. So, after running sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree, I consistentlly get this error: http://pastebin.com/m603a121b Any ideas what I might be doing wrong? | 17:22 |
| pmetzger | skenmy: irssi has its own system for keyboard bindings I believe | 17:22 |
| PeterFA | Time to write them. | 17:22 |
| skenmy | pmetzger: yep, but it does not want to work with my keys | 17:23 |
| skenmy | hence why I am asking for a "global intercept" method | 17:23 |
| wkeenan | hi | 17:23 |
| morghanphoenix | well, trying something else, back in a bit. | 17:23 |
| mirdin76 | bazhang: the alternate? yes, even the alternate | 17:23 |
| pmetzger | skenmy: I'd say you should debug why it isn't working with irssi directly | 17:23 |
| pajamian | PeterFA: if you go into software sources it has a function that checks all the servers for the fastest one. | 17:23 |
| jimmy51vinsky | does anyone here have experience with mdadm for software raid 5? | 17:23 |
| javaJake | mophead: the Canadian servers are down. :) | 17:23 |
| mirdin76 | pmetzger: no, actually I have the same problem with gutsy | 17:23 |
| pmetzger | skenmy: no point in trying to find a shotgun to kill a fly. | 17:23 |
| ramkumar | mophead: looks like a bad server, try changing to another server and try | 17:23 |
| neocrypter | I try to enable the restricted ati drivers and when I come back I get just a blank screen | 17:23 |
| bazhang | !minimal | mirdin76 not the alternate | 17:23 |
| ubottu | mirdin76 not the alternate: The Minimal CD image is very small in size, and it downloads most packages from the Internet during installation, allowing you to select only those you want (the installer is like the one on the !Alternate CD). See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD | 17:23 |
| mophead | javaJake: that... that would explain a lot | 17:23 |
| pmetzger | mirdin76: does the hardware run another OS successfully? | 17:23 |
| skenmy | pmetzger: Because they are non-standard keys :) | 17:23 |
| mophead | javaJake: any idea how long? ballpark estimate? | 17:24 |
| pmetzger | skenmy: what is a "non-standard key" in this context? | 17:24 |
| javaJake | mophead: "gksudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list" <- remove any "ca." from that file. | 17:24 |
| mirdin76 | bazhang: oh, no I don't have any internet connection to it though | 17:24 |
| javaJake | mophead: that will give you the main servers instead | 17:24 |
| skenmy | pmetzger: on my G15 they are the "G" keys | 17:24 |
| javaJake | mophead: no idea | 17:24 |
| wkeenan | I cant find any info on the forums to help me with my 7.04 to 7.10 upgrade. everytime I try to upgrade (GUi and 'do-release-upgrade) it tells me there are no upgrades | 17:24 |
| pmetzger | skenmy: but they send normal X events I imagine, yes? | 17:24 |
| javaJake | mophead: if you want, you can also use the GUI way: System -> Administration -> Software Sources | 17:24 |
| wkeenan | /etc/issue tells me 7.0.4 | 17:24 |
| pmetzger | skenmy: if they send X events, they're not really "non-standard" | 17:24 |
| mirdin76 | pmetzger: yeah, actually I was able to install gutsy xubuntu on it once in text mode, but it was a buggy install so I'm trying again from scratch | 17:24 |
| skenmy | pmetzger: well, xev picks them up | 17:24 |
| skenmy | pmetzger: but cat does not. | 17:25 |
| pmetzger | skenmy: if they send x events, that doesn't mean the tty driver knows about them. | 17:25 |
| pmetzger | skenmy: but any X app can know about them. | 17:25 |
| skenmy | irssi is not an X app | 17:25 |
| skenmy | so perhaps my question should be - how can I get my keys to be recognised by tty | 17:25 |
| ramkumar | mophead: or K menu > System > Adept Manager if you're in kde, heh | 17:25 |
| pmetzger | skenmy: xmodmap | 17:25 |
| Simonf1 | my computer will not go to sleep. it is a Powerbook G4 and I get the error that it does not work with this type of machine. Is this true, or can it be fixed? | 17:26 |
| pmetzger | skenmy: or at least, xmodmap is one reasonable way, there are several. | 17:26 |

| neocrypter | is the steps to install the flgrx drivers the same in the new version of ubuntu as it was in the old, cause the xorg.conf seems to be missing a lot of info such as an entry for the video drivers and such. | 17:32 |
| tyler | pajamian: thanks alot. I backed up my files on another drive and for some odd reason it set all permissions and ownerships of the files to root | 17:32 |
| kneeki | Bah! Is synergy in the Ubuntu repos? | 17:33 |

| tyler | unop: I gave it root pw to access the drive and it let me do whatever | 17:36 |
| pajamian | tyler: drives don't have owners, but like I said, cp -a will preserve permissions and ownership if you need to back up in the future. | 17:36 |
| unop | tyler, it's easy.. just run this. sudo chown -R $USER:$USER /path/to/backup_dir | 17:36 |
| tyler | unop: hell now I have to use gparted to change the flags on the back up drive just to access it. | 17:36 |
| unop | tyler, what filesystem does the drive/partition use? | 17:37 |
| javaJake | GhostFish: OK, let's walk through this. This is a compile error, right? | 17:37 |
| GhostFish | Yes | 17:37 |
| tyler | unop: /ext3 | 17:37 |
| tyler | pajamian: are you sure? it wouldn't let me access it in my default account with out root permission | 17:37 |
| Delerious | anybody know why my 5 button mouse should show up as a standard 2 button, and how i might fix that? | 17:38 |
| unop | tyler, you don't need to use gparted, just modify permissions on the mount-point (or directories under it) and that's that. | 17:38 |
| javaJake | GhostFish: OK, now, the key to solving these is finding the _FIRST_ error that occurs. Can you find it? | 17:38 |
| bazhang | Delerious: this is gutsy or hardy; old xorg (gutsy) can edit; not quite sure how new minimal xorg handles that | 17:38 |
| pajamian | tyler: the parent directory can be set to onwership, but not hte drive itself. If you had used a command that preserves ownership and permissions to perform the copy then the files and subdirectories would have been properly preserved, even if you run the command as root. | 17:39 |
| Cointoss | how or where do i set options saa7134 card=83 tuner=54 to the module saa7134? | 17:39 |

| unop | tyler, you need to use root if another user (including root) owns the mount-point -- root does own the directory by default on a new ext3 filesystem, you'll need to change it | 17:40 |
| rMn | oops | 17:40 |
| pepi | ;) | 17:40 |
| javaJake | GhostFish: no, that's not it | 17:40 |
| ikonia | pepi: browse through the package manager repos' with synaptic see what you fancy | 17:40 |
| bazhang | Delerious: may likely be the same | 17:40 |
| javaJake | GhostFish: run from the top to the bottom, and look for the first mention of "error" | 17:40 |
| kling0n | hmm when i try to unmount my usb devices, nautilus no longer closes open nautilus windows... it just gives me an empty error window | 17:40 |
| pepi | can u please suggest sth easy, since i am not a linux exper | 17:40 |
| javaJake | GhostFish: http://pastebin.com/m5144f413 | 17:41 |
| ikonia | pepi: go to "system --> administrator --> synaptic package manager" | 17:41 |
| demonspork | what is a good non-kde full featured cd/dvd creator? | 17:41 |
| pajamian | tyler: but like I said, in the future, just use the cp command with -a to perform the copy and it will preserve all the permissions and ownership in the copy. You can run that command as root. | 17:41 |
| ikonia | pepi: that opens a nice gui, you can then browse the packages available by category | 17:41 |
| nubunt1 | anyone know what this means? There was no SOAP-ENV:Body in the xml payload sent by the server. | 17:41 |

| GhostFish | javajake: ok error: conflicting types for ‘uintptr_t | 17:42 |
| ikonia | piege: how are you trying to install them ? | 17:42 |
| pepi | thx i think i'll manage | 17:42 |
| smallfoot- | what license is the Human theme under? | 17:42 |
| piege | to install 'em I copied the theme to /use/shared/theme then open up appearance and select the theme I want | 17:42 |
| javaJake | GhostFish: exactly | 17:42 |
| javaJake | GhostFish: now, Google that with quotes. The quotes tell Google to look for taht exact phrase | 17:43 |
| ikonia | piege: thats not the best way, you probably messed up the permissions. | 17:43 |
| piege | erm ok? | 17:43 |
| ikonia | piege: open the "appearence --> theme" window and drag and drop the tar file into the window, it will install it for you | 17:43 |
| GhostFish | k | 17:43 |
| atlef | piege: easier to open apperance and drag and drop | 17:43 |
| piege | ok thanks | 17:43 |
| javaJake | GhostFish: the first result says "With kernel 2.6.24 you will need a patch to install Cisco VPN" <- this looks a bit tough, and we aren't working with Cisco VPN, so let's move on | 17:43 |
| javaJake | GhostFish: "HOWTO: Nvidia nForce SoundStorm APU" <- nope, not Nvidia | 17:44 |
| javaJake | GhostFish: "VMware Communities: vmware tools won't compile in Fedora 8" <- a little ways down, we find this. We are using Ubuntu, but maybe we can pull some tips from this. | 17:44 |

| GentilKiwi | maybe someone know a trick to disable the complet ipv6 support on ubuntu server 8.04 ? | 17:46 |
| GhostFish | yeah | 17:46 |
| bazhang | gg2 very unlikely in the extreme; the worst that would happen is that grub is installed badly and you have to reinstall it | 17:46 |
| pepi | i would like to install apache on ubuntu, is this possible? | 17:46 |
| ikonia | pepi: sure | 17:46 |
| fiftyMIPsparc | pepi: yes very much | 17:46 |
| pepi | it is not listed | 17:46 |
| javaJake | GhostFish: OK, notice the answer the guy gives to the Fedora 8 problem: | 17:46 |
| Cointoss | pepi: sudo apt-get install apache2 | 17:46 |
| tyler | shira: any luck? | 17:46 |
| pepi | thx | 17:46 |
| ikonia | pepi: in the package manager, do a search for "apache" you'll find a list of applications like apache-prefork for example. Select that for installation and click" install" | 17:46 |
| Cointoss | np | 17:46 |
| javaJake | GhostFish: GhostFish part of his post says "When running vmware-config.pl after a kernel upgrade to 2.6.24.4-64.fc8 I was getting the output below. However, after spotting your query I checked for a newer any-any patch (I had 113) and found 115. Having installed that patch, I have successfully rebuilt VMware." | 17:47 |

| rtm1981 | Hello :) I'm completely new to Linux... so a couple of stupid questions, first one of which is: I'm trying to change to a directory in console mode to install a program.. what is the command used in linux? In windows console the command was CD | 17:47 |
| zionpsyfer | rtm1981: it is the same in linux. | 17:47 |
| GentilKiwi | rtm => it's "cd" too :) | 17:47 |
| unop | rtm1981, same with unix. cd | 17:47 |
| javaJake | GhostFish: so, this any-any patch is what we need. I did some more research and Googling for you, and found out that this error occurs in Ubuntu too, and the patch works in Ubuntu as well | 17:47 |
| rtm1981 | hmmmm... | 17:47 |
| rtm1981 | odd | 17:47 |
| piege | I deleted the theme and installed it again and no results ... I might add that ALLL theme only work for root | 17:47 |
| Cointoss | cd not CD | 17:47 |
| rtm1981 | because I'm getting the msg "bash" | 17:47 |
| javaJake | GhostFish: the patch can be found here: http://taltan2.free.fr/dl/vmware/vmware-any-any-update-116.tgz | 17:47 |
| hischild | a nice value of -19 gives highest priority, correct? | 17:47 |
| ikonia | rtm1981: it's cd in linux too | 17:47 |
| fiftyMIPsparc | i can't seem to get dual monitors working, i can get them to mirror each other but i can't have two distinct desktops. also, my main screen has a higher res than the second, is that the problem? | 17:47 |
| unop | rtm1981, but mind the case tho .. on windows case does not matter, but on unix, it does | 17:47 |
| demonspork | how do I change the arrangement of awn icons?? | 17:47 |
| pajamian | rtm1981: cd | 17:47 |
| javaJake | GhostFish: at this point you should be questioning whether or not you really want to compile VMWare, or just use a binary distribution. :) | 17:48 |
| Cointoss | fiftyMIPsparc: nvidia or ati? | 17:48 |
| GentilKiwi | nobody on ipv6 (desinstall) ? | 17:48 |
| rtm1981 | so what does the error msg "bash" mean? :) | 17:48 |
| zionpsyfer | rtm1981: linux commands are case sensitive. all uppercase CD is NOT the same as lowercase cd. | 17:48 |
| unop | hischild, errm, some versions of unix allow -20 too | 17:48 |
| skywalker | i have a problema with my ubuntu 8.04 | 17:48 |
| pajamian | rtm1981: it's not an error message, it's jsut the prompt | 17:48 |
| bazhang | what is your *second* question rtm1981 ;] | 17:48 |
| skywalker | any help? | 17:48 |
| paynito | Jeruvy, cntrl-alt-f1 sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop | 17:48 |
| paynito | sudo apt-get install x11vnc | 17:48 |
| ibleed | rtm1981, if cd doesn't work for you should probably make sure the slashes point forward | 17:48 |
| fiftyMIPsparc | cointoss: ati | 17:48 |
| javaJake | GhostFish: oh, and that patch is up-to-date, btw. It was created March of 2008 | 17:48 |
| javaJake | GhostFish: so no worries there | 17:48 |
| hischild | unop, yeah, but it's about which value is higher or lower priority. Negative means higher right? | 17:48 |
| rtm1981 | ok.. i see :) | 17:48 |
| bazhang | skywalker: we need a question first ;] | 17:48 |
| GhostFish | cool let me try one sec.. | 17:49 |
| Cointoss | fiftyMIPsparc: have a look a aticonfig then | 17:49 |
| skywalker | i am in safe mode | 17:49 |

| skywalker | and i can't go out of this | 17:49 |
| unop | hischild, right -20 (is allowed on linux too) is the highest while +20 is the lowest | 17:49 |
| pepi | cointoss, where to find apache after installing? | 17:49 |
| Cointoss | fiftyMIPsparc: just enter the command and have a look at the --enable-monitor switch | 17:49 |

I tried the first two options ages ago and decided that 64 bit ubuntu just isn't worth it on the desktop yet and have been on 32 bit since. | 18:00 |

| r00723r0 | Simonf1, nope. | 18:02 |
| nainef | mine was a timex sinclair 1000 | 18:02 |
| gregbrady | Any ideas of why my grub gives an Error 15: file not found when booting up? If I hit ctl-alt-del and reboot it has no problems, but it never starts on the initial power up | 18:02 |
| Simonf1 | r00723r0: the wakelss link | 18:02 |

| daYZman | hi | 18:02 |
| Rabiddog | 64 bit is still quite buggy | 18:02 |
| skywalker_ | hi | 18:02 |
| iclebyte | nainef, you are old | 18:03 |
| r00723r0 | Yes, but I'd rather stay 64-bit for "beta" testing. | 18:03 |
| skywalker_ | nothing happens at menu.lst | 18:03 |
| nainef | :( | 18:03 |
| iclebyte | heh | 18:03 |
| nainef | hbeh | 18:03 |
| iclebyte | what year was that? | 18:03 |
| pajamian | r00723r0: up to you, but you will have problems with things such as flash. | 18:03 |
| ikonia | CruX|: it's just installed fine for me, no issues at all. I find it hard to see how your getting that error at install time, as that is a reference to a c++ file that shouldn't exist in a pre-compiled package | 18:03 |
| pakratt | gregbrady: is your bios detecting the drive? | 18:03 |
| cyclonut | anyone know where in the filesystem I can find my trash? | 18:03 |

| iclebyte | mine was 1993 age 7 :D | 18:04 |
| gregbrady | ikonia, is it possible to slow down the startup? | 18:04 |

| ikonia | gregbrady: not really, it boots as soon as the boot sector is ready | 18:04 |
| r00723r0 | zvacet, nope. | 18:04 |
| r00723r0 | I will check. | 18:04 |
| Simonf1 | gregbrady: lol, you want so slow it down, that is a first | 18:04 |
| pajamian | r00723r0: IMO 64 bit Linux is quite good, the main problem with it on the desktop is you need proprietary stuff such as flash and adobe outright refuses to release a 64 bit version of the flashplayer let alone anything resembling open source. | 18:04 |
| cyclonut | thanks dystopianray that was it | 18:04 |
| iclebyte | my ubuntu box also has a cdrom drive.. | 18:04 |

| CruX| | ikonia: or i put somewhere my config, can you take a look ? | 18:04 |
| gregbrady | simonf1, yeah, it kind of goes against everything, doesn't it? | 18:04 |
| ikonia | CruX|: put it in a pastebin if you want | 18:05 |

| pajamian | r00723r0: I hear ya | 18:05 |
| ikonia | CruX|: although what your seeing is not a config issue | 18:05 |
| r00723r0 | The problem is that the open-source community cannot do anything better. | 18:05 |
| r00723r0 | Which is surprising since the open-source community has the best programmers in the world. | 18:05 |
| CruX| | ikonia: yes please paste config on pastebin | 18:05 |
| dystopianray | r00723r0: adobe has recently opened up their flash specs so expect open source players to improve at a much greater rate | 18:06 |

But that package says "This package will always depend on the latest module available for the generic kernel image." Which is pretty meaningless. | 18:10 |

| ouellettesr | Axiin, white boxes are not supported | 18:21 |
| Axiin | where do I start trying to troubleshoot this? | 18:21 |
| qwiksand | dystopianray that means i should check "Mount CD/DVD Drive, Host CD/DVD Drive and Enable passthrough"? | 18:21 |
| yit4s | well, i cant get my wireless working on ubuntu. currently using the hardy heron | 18:21 |
| szkud | it shows up as read-only | 18:21 |

| soulc | ok hardy not printing anyone? | 18:21 |
| Axiin | .... I was going to say =) | 18:21 |
| pakratt | gregL: to get to a regular root shell, just use "sudo -s" | 18:21 |
| Chapai | ouellettesr, can you open my computer or places, if it gives you an error about icon.. you need to reinstall nautilus | 18:21 |
| dystopianray | qwiksand: no need to enable passthrough, just use the host cdrom | 18:21 |
| nhaines | gregbrady: He said it's the first USB thumbdrive. Assuming you don't have more than one IDE controller this is probably correct. | 18:21 |
| yit4s | i need to get my wireless working | 18:21 |
| xopey | yit4s: what wireless hardware are you using? | 18:21 |
| ouellettesr | jknight, nautilus opens my home folder | 18:21 |
| bazhang | szkud: target disk mode? what are you trying to do? | 18:22 |
| qwiksand | dystopianray yeah done..whats next? | 18:22 |
| ouellettesr | Chapai, yeah works fine | 18:22 |
| Axiin | The reason I specified it was a white box is because I'm not exactly sure what hardware is in it. I sort of bought it at a church rummage sale... | 18:22 |

| ouellettesr | jknight, that command does not work, it doesn't recognize -replace as an option | 18:24 |
| Le1 | how would I go about restoring any remains of a broken partition? I can only seem to see it in testdisk | 18:24 |
| Chapai | what is the format for scp when already sshed in the box | 18:24 |
| nhaines | Axiin: Instead of GNOME it has Xfce, instead of OpenOffice.org it has Abiword and Gnumeric, etc. You can still install anything from Ubuntu because it is still Ubuntu. | 18:24 |
| neeto | I want to disable tooltips in gdm. | 18:24 |
| yit4s | i did | 18:24 |
| pakratt | gregL: so you're not able to get sudo to work at all? the password should just be the same as your regular user password. if that doesn't work, i'm lost, sorry | 18:24 |
| qwiksand | dystopianray VirtualBox kernel driver not installed. The vboxdrv kernel module was either not loaded or /dev/vboxdrv was not created for some reason. Please install the virtualbox-ose-modules package for your kernel, e.g. virtualbox-ose-modules-generic.. | 18:24 |
| xopey | yit4s: sorry, i'm coming in to the covo late. you may have already answered that | 18:24 |
| eTiger13 | ek, huh? | 18:24 |
| d0Ck | is it possible to update ubuntu straight from 6.10 to 8.04 ? | 18:25 |
| xopey | yit4s: do you see anything in dmesg or /var/log/messages to help? | 18:25 |
| DanaG | I still think madwifi is bad naming. | 18:25 |
| yit4s | but i dont know whether it's working cuz i'm a newb | 18:25 |
| DanaG | It's atheros, not MADtheros... | 18:25 |
| dystopianray | qwiksand: you need to install and load the virtualbox kernel modules | 18:25 |
| Axiin | Nhaines: would that help my "Starting Hardware abstraction layer hald" problem? | 18:25 |
| neocrypter | dont suppose there is a specific channel for ubuntu ati problems is there lol | 18:25 |
| DanaG | so where the heck do they get "MAD" from? Mutually Assured Destruction? | 18:25 |
| Axiin | It's been hanging here for like... 2 hours | 18:25 |
| nhaines | d0Ck: No, you must upgrade from one release to another. | 18:25 |
| solusian | babolat: Are you there? I fixed the problem. | 18:25 |
| gregL | pakratt: yes it works for all other things except that drive..I may have to ftp the files to myself.... | 18:25 |
| Axiin | he sysadmin here at work says it's an issue, and for me to google how to fix it but I'm not even sure where to start =) | 18:25 |
| yit4s | hmmm | 18:25 |
| nhaines | Axiin: Probably not, but it will probably run faster if you do get things working. Xubuntu wasn't my suggestion. :) | 18:25 |
| ek | eTiger13: If you're using 'sed -i', you should suppy a .bak extension so the backup file is created. Also, run with '-e' as well. Try: sed -i .bak -e "s|old_string|new_string|" | 18:25 |
| JKT8 | since no one answered me right away here, I just posted my problem here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=779052 if anyone is willing to take a look, thanks! | 18:25 |
| yit4s | ii'm not sure cuz i'm a total newb | 18:26 |
| babolat | solusian: so sorry, whicj problem was that again? | 18:26 |
| d0Ck | nhaines: and from CD, if i have my hardy burned there ? | 18:26 |
| ouellettesr | Axxin the biggest advantage to running Xubuntu is because it uses less system resources to run the OS. Perfect for older pc's | 18:26 |
| Le1 | how would I go about restoring data from a partition? | 18:26 |
| Axiin | ahhhh | 18:26 |
| polysilicon | I installed ubuntu-desktop package from kubuntu, my boot screen still shows the kubuntu logo. how can I change this to ubuntu logo? I have selected GDM and disabled KDM | 18:26 |
| solusian | babolat: WiFi suddenly stopped workig for no reason at all.. Here's how I fixed it.. | 18:26 |
| yit4s | i did tried madwifi thing but i'm not sure whether it;s working or not | 18:26 |
| Axiin | Thank you Ouellettsr | 18:26 |
| pakratt | gregL: what file system is it? is it mounted correctly? | 18:26 |
| ouellettesr | np | 18:26 |
| xopey | yit4s: are you using network manager | 18:26 |
| qwiksand | dystopainray so go back to synatpic and install all the modules there | 18:26 |
| fde | polysilicon: throw /usr/bin/gdm into /etc/X11/default-desktop-manager | 18:26 |
| Axiin | Ok... so what IS this "Starting Hardware abstraction layer hald" ? | 18:26 |
| nhaines | d0Ck: It doesn't matter. You still must upgrade to 7.04, then 7.10, and then you can upgrade to 8.04 LTS (from CD if you have it). | 18:26 |
| xintron | I need a good music player that can handle my iPod and last.fm submits | 18:27 |
| babolat | solusian: well, my congrats to you ;) | 18:27 |
| solusian | babolat: I tried a usb wifi dongle in between, that didn't really work out.. so I downloaded a .deb from wicd and removed network-manager through the synaptic manager. Installed wicd and that fixed it. | 18:27 |
| MythGuy | Can anyone help me with reading/writing my NTFS drive? | 18:27 |
| daYZman | i've just installed 1.7 and the gnome panel and the menu bars are red, how do i change that? i've tried changing to a custom Emerald theme, but they are still red. do i need a GTK theme? | 18:27 |
| bogey- | You can go LTS to LTS | 18:27 |
| nhaines | Axiin: It's a standard status notification. HAL is software that sits between the hardware and other services to make it easier to support softwrae. | 18:27 |
| babolat | solusian: clever and creative u are ;) | 18:27 |
| bazhang | !ntfs | MythGuy | 18:27 |
| solusian | babolat: Just thought I'd share considering that you had others inquire about the issue as well. Maybe it'll help for them as well. | 18:27 |
| ubottu | MythGuy: To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions - For write access, see /msg ubotu NTFS-3g or /msg ubotu FUSE | 18:27 |
| gregL | pakratt: Yes it is mounted...i can view the files,just not able to retrive them... | 18:27 |
| eTiger13 | ek, how do i make it search within a specific file? | 18:27 |
| atlef | xintron: what about amarok or rhytmbox? | 18:27 |
| nhaines | bogey-: He's starting with 6.10. | 18:27 |
| gil | hi | 18:27 |
| polysilicon | fde, I did that | 18:27 |
| bogey- | ohh | 18:27 |
| d0Ck | nhaines: is it possible to uninstall ubuntu without affecting any other OSs on my pc ? | 18:27 |
| bogey- | then its a do-release-upgrade for him | 18:27 |
| Le1 | how would I restore parts of an ext3 partition? | 18:27 |
| dtolj | eTiger13: use grep "search" "file" | 18:27 |
| xopey | yit4s: have you gone out to the madwifi website to see if your specific hardware is supported | 18:27 |
| xintron | atlef: Well, I have amarok but it doesn't find my iPod automatically | 18:28 |
| bazhang | le1 what happened | 18:28 |
| dystopianray | qwiksand: install the virtualbox modules for your kernel | 18:28 |
| pakratt | gregL: what are the permissions of the files? it sounds like you have permission to read the directory but not the files | 18:28 |
| babolat | solusian: will remember that.. though u coming in and helping out in the room might be a better idea if we want people to get fixin' | 18:28 |
| nhaines | d0Ck: yes, it is, but if you have GRUB installed on your Ubuntu partition, it is hazardous. Removing Ubuntu's partitions and then reinstalling Ubuntu 8.04 will let you boot everything again. | 18:28 |
| yit4s | i did but i'm not so sure with everything as i dont know nothing about linux/ubuntu | 18:28 |
| solusian | Yeah, true enough! | 18:28 |
| solusian | I have some spare time now anyway, so may as well. | 18:28 |
| eTiger13 | dtolj, im trying to do a search and replace on a folder and its subdirs looking for a line in a specific file in each of those subdirs | 18:28 |
| ek | eTiger13: As dtolj says. Or, you can state the file's name with -name "filename" to find. | 18:28 |
| Le1 | bazhang: well it got wiped, some stuff got overwritten, i'm hoping I can at least restore parts of my home directory, such as my Firefox bookmarks. I can see the partition if I do a scan in testdisk | 18:28 |
| jack_ | anyone know a good way to record streamed audio? | 18:29 |
| gregL | pakratt: let me check... | 18:29 |
| jack_ | audacity just isn't working :S | 18:29 |
| ouellettesr | does anyone else have any idea why my background is black / not working? | 18:29 |
| ek | eTiger13: Ah. I see what you mean. You only want it to create backups and replace in files that contain 'string'? | 18:29 |
| neocrypter | looking for a ubuntu ati expert before I break my desk from banging my head on it :D | 18:29 |
| bazhang | le1 best option is to get a live system rescue cd from www.distrowatch.com imo | 18:29 |

| Le1 | ill go see | 18:29 |

| d0Ck | nhaines: when i am installing 8.04 i just have to delete ubuntu partition ? | 18:30 |
| gil | i have a problem with Kubuntu 8.04 can you help me? | 18:30 |
| babolat | !ask | gil | 18:31 |
| ubottu | gil: 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. :-) | 18:31 |
| Le1 | thats a point, how do I burn a disc when I am booting with a live CD already? | 18:31 |
| nhaines | d0Ck: Yes, that's basically it. | 18:31 |
| ouellettesr | gvorr, lol that worked | 18:31 |
| dtolj | eTiger13: you can use something like this: find . -iname "*" -exec grep -H "search query" {} \; | 18:31 |
| gil | ok tankyou | 18:31 |
| pajamian | eTiger13: perl in combination with find works well for that. | 18:31 |
| d0Ck | nhaines: and what file system does it have ? | 18:31 |
| gvorr | ouellettesr: good stuff | 18:31 |
| gil | is a problem with ati drivers | 18:31 |
| ek | eTiger13: find . -type f -exec grep -q "search_string" {} \; -exec sed -i .bak -e "s|old_string|new_string|" {} \; | 18:31 |
| d0Ck | nhaines: to identify it | 18:31 |

| eTiger13 | pajamian, do you have the syntax i could use | 18:32 |
| gregL | pakratt: I unpluged the drive and put it back in now it seems to work...Thanks for the suggestions.... | 18:32 |
| anas | how to get virtualbox to work with usb | 18:32 |
| nhaines | d0Ck: ext3fs by default. You may also want to delete the swap and have the installer use the "largest contiguous free space" to make repartitioning automatic. | 18:32 |
| anas | ? | 18:32 |
| bazhang | anas the ose one does not | 18:32 |
| yit4s | i'll rephrase my problem: i need to get my atheros wireless card to work on ubuntu hardy. i'm only a day old user ubuntu. can anybody help me?? | 18:32 |

| === jabba is now known as jabba_ | ||
| === jabba_ is now known as jabba__ | ||
| bazhang | xintron: this is gutsy or hardy | 18:34 |
| nhaines | d0Ck: That and the swap partition. You can run the Desktop CD and do it from there. Just turn swap off first (right-click on it in GPartEd) ebfore deleting. | 18:34 |
| ouellettesr | lo jabba grew a tail | 18:34 |
| eTiger13 | ek, am i supposed to replace the .bak with something? it just repeated cant read .bak no such file over and over | 18:34 |

| subopt | I'm running 7.10 on i386. My Update Manager is offering to upgrade me to '8.04 LTS'. Is upgrading this way as risky as this kinda' thing used to be? Or should i just back up what i need, and reinstall all from scratch? | 18:34 |
| yit4s | i installed madwifi (i think i did( but i'm not sure it worked or not | 18:34 |

| babolat | subopt: not really, if you've got a decent Internet connection and all your updates ar good | 18:35 |
| ek | eTiger13: No. The .bak is the extension that should be added to the old file after sed has replaced it with the new file. | 18:35 |
| xintron | 8.04 | 18:35 |

| Seven_Six_Two | I recently installed cinelerra and then used hibernate for the first time(not while running cin). My box didn't recover or fail gracefully, so I magic SysRq. Now my kicker doesn't load when I login(KDE3.5). I'm running 8.04, 2.6.24-16-rt | 18:56 |
| calc | noelferreira: looking to see if i can find the bug report | 18:56 |

| Signius | ok sussed it just forgot how to do it | 18:57 |
| qwiksand | Fogel1497 thts my final option? | 18:58 |
| neeto | I have made the tooltips in gnome dark gray. This was in effort to get my gdm greeter to display a tooltip that matched it's color. Strangely enough, I can now run gdmthemetester and everything will run fine, the tooltip will be the color I want it to be, and then when I load gdm for real, it will be the default color... anyone have any ideas? | 18:58 |
| Signius | its sudo apt-update then password | 18:58 |
| AnthroTechie | bazhang: yeah I know, but given the output from the command line, it seems to be a problem with libbanshee in particular. I was hoping it could be fixed with that information | 18:58 |
| majikins | hi - I've just got the hardy disk and want to install fresh as software raid0 on 2 80gig sata drives | 18:58 |
| ek | eTiger13: I also noticed that I mixed the -exec and xargs 'echo' stuff together. You only need "| xargs echo" at the end. Not "| xargs -0 echo {} -". Lol. | 18:58 |

| VoODoOChilD | hello ppl .. | 18:58 |
| Fogel1497 | Thats what I would reccomend. Two days ago I got an error upon bootup saying it could not correctly detect my videocard and needed to use a lower resolution. That is how I repaired the problem in my situation. Whether or not there is another solution i do not know | 18:58 |
| bazhang | AnthroTechie: perhaps if you file a new bug or add it to an existing one | 18:58 |
| gking95 | just installed ubuntu moving from fedora core | 18:58 |

| ikonia | majikins: don't use raid 0, don't use fake raid, you can't install /boot onto a raid 0 partition | 18:59 |
| babolat | Chapai: looking | 18:59 |

| ravious | ikonia: Any luck on that sample config or was it a no go. | 19:00 |
| Le1 | hmm, cant seem to understand magicrescue. fdisk only sees one partition on the disk, so can gparted | 19:00 |
| coolkid112 | Can anyone help me get back my menu bar? =S | 19:00 |
| majikins | eish - I forgot about that | 19:00 |
| Le1 | but if I mount it, I get the overwritten 200MB partition | 19:00 |
| majikins | thanks | 19:00 |
| ikonia | ravious: sorry, did you miss my message, I can't get access to my box at home, but I can offer it in approx 40 mins when I get home | 19:00 |
| bazhang | rtm1981: generally it is a good idea to stick to the repos unless you know what are doing with outside stuff | 19:01 |
| ravious | ikonia: ah its kewl dont worry about it. I'll keep searching | 19:01 |
| thewhitepelican | I run kde through gdm. where do I find out when kde 4.1 alpha will be available for kde through ubuntu? | 19:01 |
| babolat | Chapai: it's detected alright.. just not getting through... | 19:01 |
| calc | noelferreira: still looking, iirc its something to do with the scheduler | 19:01 |
| daYZman | i've just installed 1.7 and the gnome panel and the menu bars are red, how do i change that? i've tried changing to a custom Emerald theme, but they are still red. do i need a GTK theme? | 19:01 |
| pajamian | Le1: if it was overwritten then the chances of you getting data off the original partition is not very good. | 19:01 |

| moveax | Has anyone here ever built a local Ubuntu/Debian mirror? I've got one going and it works well, but for some reason it can't be used as an installation point for the minial-install ISO. Any ideas what's needed? | 19:02 |
| coolkid112 | Can someone please help me get back my menu bar? | 19:02 |

| bazhang | rtm nay the stuff in synaptic and apt-cache search--> if you really know your stuff outside stuff is fine; but if not then plan on spending alot of time fixing your machine | 19:02 |
| neeto | thewhitepelican: you mean you don't want to use kubuntu? | 19:02 |

| thewhitepelican | correct neeto | 19:02 |
| coolkid112 | My menu bar disspeared. But dont tell me to type >gconftool --recursive-unset /apps/panel && killall gnome-panel< cause it doenst work | 19:02 |
| Signius | Can i upgrade straight from Feisty to Heron or do i need to upgrade to gutsy first and then heron ? | 19:02 |
| rtm1981 | kk... thanks Bazhang :) | 19:02 |
| bazhang | coolkid112: did you try killing gnome-panel | 19:03 |
| coolkid112 | yeah | 19:03 |
| coolkid112 | it said no process killed | 19:03 |
| neeto | thewhitepelican: install it with apt and switch into it with gdm? | 19:03 |
| bazhang | coolkid112: how | 19:03 |
| nhaines | Signius: First upgrade to gutsy and make sure it's entirely up to date before upgrading to hardy. | 19:03 |
| bazhang | coolkid112: no not that | 19:03 |
| magnetron | question: how do i get crisp clear monospace fonts after installing hardy? | 19:03 |
| ek | eTiger13: Well, being as you're editing a possible 700,000 files, this is no surprise. | 19:03 |
| moveax | Forget it I'll ask on the forums. | 19:03 |
| pajamian | Le1: the only thing I can recommend that may possibly get your data back is to run grep on the raw partition to see if you can find the data you need, search for a bookmark name you know is in the file or a url or something. You can use context to get most or all of the file before and after the match. | 19:03 |
| eTiger13 | coolkid112, did it disappear magically or did you delete it? | 19:03 |
| ek | eTiger13: Let me shed some light on what's going on... | 19:03 |
| coolkid112 | i typed in "gconftool --recursive-unset /apps/panel && killall gnome-panel" in the terminal and it said no process killed | 19:03 |
| coolkid112 | it magically dissapeared | 19:03 |
| babolat | Chapai: i'm not getting this... sorry | 19:04 |
| coolkid112 | I just installed ubuntu last night ._. | 19:04 |
| bazhang | coolkid112: please pastebin your sources.list | 19:04 |
| ek | eTiger13: When you pipe to xargs it does the find job, then the xargs job. Which means once find finds all files you're looking for, xargs executes everything on a single line. | 19:04 |
| coolkid112 | where is that located? | 19:04 |
| calc | noelferreira: i can't find the bug report i saw a few days ago, you might want to ask someone in #ubuntu-kernel about it | 19:04 |
| Fogel1497 | @Coolkid112: Have you tried " sudo debconf gnome-panel " | 19:04 |
| Chapai | its alright, thanks for checking babolat | 19:04 |
| ek | eTiger13: -exec on the other hand, executes once per find. | 19:04 |
| calc | noelferreira: the one that might be related is bug 188226 | 19:04 |

| calc | noelferreira: but that is old so i doubt it is the same issue | 19:04 |
| ek | eTiger13: Therefore, in your situation (I didn't know this earlier), it would be better to use -exec. | 19:04 |
| noelferreira | thanks | 19:04 |
| pajamian | ek, not exactly, xargs knows how long the command line can be and fits as many args per command as possible. | 19:05 |

| noelferreira | calc, how do i update from proposoals. is an option in repositories? | 19:08 |

| d0ck | vminch i have chosen to manage partitions manually : type for the new partition primary or logical. and location : begining or end ? | 19:22 |
| moveax | bazhang: it's from the install cd, there is no sources.list - the mirror works fine as a mirror for updates and installing stuff, but it doesn't work when I try to use it as a network install point. Says it was unable to download a certain file. | 19:22 |

| Fogel1497 | When I use the media buttons on my keyboard, i see the corresponding graphics on the screen but the audio is not lowered or raised | 19:23 |
| crdlb | arcanez: unfortunately, that card is too old to run compiz (or any GL app) at that high a resolution | 19:24 |
| moveax | bazhang: yes, as it has everything there. I'm wondering if the mirror needs the -src debs downloaded, too? | 19:24 |
| Aruza | babolat: i was typing in pm | 19:24 |
| d0ck | vminch i am kinda installing ubuntu now, i have windows on my laptop, too. and i want to dedicate 7gb to try ubuntu. | 19:24 |
| be-cool | if i try to connect with the network-manager the pc freeze | 19:24 |
| moveax | bazhang: when you install from one of the dedicated mirrors, it's the same thing - apt-mirror downloads everything, apparently. | 19:24 |
| bazhang | moveax: everything? the entire 45gb of repos? | 19:25 |
| arcanez | crdlb, I'm running dual monitors (2560x1024) | 19:25 |

| vminch | sebrock: there are, im just a stupid noob so i woundlnt be able to tell you :( | 19:27 |
| pajamian | inviso: how did you create the user? | 19:27 |
| arcanez | crdlb, how can i scale it down.. thats the only res that shows up for dual.. rest are single | 19:27 |

| gilster32 | ok let me ask this. During the live cd install, at the very end there is an advanced option where one can select not to install a bootmanager at all--it can be deselected. what happens in this case? | 19:52 |
| TJ13820 | i just installed ubuntu 7.10 on an HP Pavillion Ze model notebook. When i start it up, it does not show the GUI boot screen. So i press CTRL+ALT+(1-8) to get text mode startup. How do i get the GUI to work, instead of the text mode? | 19:52 |
| frostburn | n6rej, I think the original conf file is under /usr/share/samba/ copy that over to /etc/ take note of file permissions, you'll have to enable the account guest per share... that's line... 103 in the latest conf | 19:52 |
| sparr | n6rej: yes, and very large still images (gigapixel+) | 19:52 |

| maxb | So, I have a working openvpn config on the command line, and thought I'd try seeing if I could make NetworkManager do the login in pretty GUI fashion just for fun. So, I enter the settings, enter my password..... and NOTHING happens. Where might I look for logs from this? | 19:52 |

| sparr | n6rej: my swap is 4x5GB partitions across 4 drives on separate IDE controllers. striping makes it SO much faster | 19:53 |

| crimsun | StFS: bingo. | 19:53 |
| LaneLimited | Is it possible to delete things under my applications/games/ "something" <delete??? | 19:53 |
| n6rej | water_foul: it all depends on what software/features you wan't/need | 19:53 |
| gentlyninja | i cannot play music via rhythmbox or totem. so i guess its a matter of gstreamer. how can i fix it without restarting? | 19:54 |
| sparr | water_foul: 8.04 is the least solid of the ubuntu versions ive seen to date. decisions were made to keep it less-out-of-date for the next 3 years that result in it being a little shaky right now | 19:54 |

| StFS | crimsun: ok... so /dev/raw1394 is owned by root:disk. would the "proper" solution to this be to add my user to the disk group or what? | 19:54 |

| StFS | crimsun: yeah... I had a funny feeling you'd say that ;) | 19:55 |

| water_foul | my x86_64 7.10 ubuntu machine doesn't show the spash, how would I fix that? | 19:55 |
| crimsun | StFS: (however, in this case, you could kludge by doing that - but be aware of the ramifications.) | 19:56 |
| d0ck | how to create a swap partition please ? | 19:56 |
| jonaskoelker | frostburn: you want me to say "iface $FACE inet dhcp" twice, right? I'm doing that; when I ifup eth1:0 (eth1 is already up), I get "SIOCSIFFLAGS: Cannot assign requested address" | 19:56 |
| water_foul | my x86_64 7.10 ubuntu machine doesn't show the spash, how would I fix that? | 19:56 |
| StFS | crimsun: so changing permission to 0666 on the /dev/raw1394 device is a better one or what? what would be the "correct" solution here? | 19:56 |
| simion314 | marco___ do you use an older ubuntu version? i do not know how to solve the problem | 19:56 |
| sparr | water_foul: you have usplash-theme-ubuntu installed? | 19:56 |
| jonaskoelker | frostburn: I heard that dhclient3 wants to send from IP address 0.0.0.0 ... could that be somehow problematic? | 19:57 |

| Jokka | How do i specify an workspace for an program to open when using terminal? | 19:57 |
| crimsun | StFS: you definitely don't want 0666 for raw1394; your single user in @disk is "less bad" | 19:57 |
| gregbrady | Is the Amorok shipped with 8.04 stable, or is it a beta? Mine just crashes and then will not restart. | 19:57 |
| d0ck | people, please explain me how to create a swap partition | 19:57 |
| water_foul | sparr: apt-get says "usplash-theme-ubuntu is already the newest version." | 19:57 |
| jonaskoelker | Jokka: my understanding is that you can't | 19:58 |
| crimsun | StFS: (since if your user is compromised, your user already is in @admin, so flying over the disk is the least of one's concerns) | 19:58 |
| jonaskoelker | Jokka: but perhaps you can use wmctrl and some shell-scripting magic to compensate | 19:58 |
| Rabiddog | d0ck: you might want to read a wiki on hdd organization | 19:58 |
| TJ13820 | sparr: could you examine my log file? i would have no idea what to look for | 19:58 |

| Jokka | jonaskoelker: devilspie can if specified but i mean with terminal commands and then specify | 19:59 |

| LaneLimited | please I really don't know how to enable this KDE desktop.... please help me | 20:09 |
| qwiksand | now, nothing! | 20:09 |
| jonaskoelker | d0ck: I recommend using a swap file over a swap partition--it gives you more flexibility (resizing partitions is time-consuming; resizing files is fast) | 20:10 |
| Lynet | d0ck: It might perhaps be easier to create a swap file instead. | 20:10 |
| punzada | ghostknife you can do that easily, check out this guide http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=35087 | 20:10 |

| Lynet | d0ck: "The number of partitions on an Intel-based system was limited from the very beginning: The original partition table was installed as part of the boot sector and held space for only four partition entries. These partitions are now called primary partitions. " | 20:21 |
| soulc | I think my printer got set in that mode then | 20:21 |
| Lynet | d0ck: "One primary partition of a hard drive may be subpartitioned. These are logical partitions. This effectively allows us to skirt the historical four partition limitation. " | 20:21 |
| cellofellow | d0ck: you can have only 4 partitions, with IDE drives. If you want more than that, replace one of the primaries with an extended and put logicals inside of that. | 20:21 |

| ubottu | Ubhubdub: A higher version number does not mean that it's better. Especially with packages such as the linux kernel. The packages in the Ubuntu repositories are stable and will work fine.

| zvacet | qwiksand : sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras | 21:35 |
| midlertid | What? | 21:35 |
| Kl4m | bullgard4: get rid of those files. If the tracker works it'll rebuild that directory and all the indexes soon | 21:35 |
| LaneLimited_ | Thanks a lot | 21:35 |
| guest | jasperarcher, its alright, did you get the message i sent you about "df -h" ? | 21:35 |
| zeker | lynet, because I'm a total linux n00b haha | 21:35 |
| midlertid | Impossible I have runned it on 512mb | 21:35 |
| zvacet | Ubhubdub . you allways have old one | 21:35 |
| Starnestommy | PiojoSSo: I'm not sure how to fix it, but you may need to reinstall | 21:35 |
| fde | qwiksand: I forgot to reply to you... remove the packages listed via 'dpkg -l virtualbox* | grep ^ii' as that is what seems to have caused your issues. | 21:35 |
| jasperarcher | guest: i am still here, i ran df -h, it gave me 9 lines | 21:35 |
| Kl4m | bullgard4: I'm going to try it right now if you're nervous about it. | 21:35 |
| Ubhubdub | zvacet, yup | 21:35 |
| guest | what does the first one say? | 21:35 |
| PiojoSSo | okay...thanx a lot... | 21:35 |
| PiojoSSo | i'll try... :S | 21:35 |
| Ubhubdub | zvacet, but to use the new kernel... how can i set that the new kernel is the default one? | 21:36 |
| svl | VLC (and Totem and mplayer) seems incapable of reading non-region2 DVDs on my laptop. Yet it's perfectly capable of ignoring region code under windows. _What piece am I missing?_ (yes, I've installed libdvdcss2 already, and read all of RestrictedFormats/PlayingDVDs). VLC gives a warning in its messages: "cannot get next block (Error reading NAV packet.)" /var/log/messages is filled with "I/O... | 21:36 |
| svl | ...error, dev sr0" | 21:36 |
| StavFX | hey i was wondering if someone could help me with creox, it won't do any effects for my guitar | 21:36 |
| jasperarcher | guest: tmpfs, 252M 16M used mounted on /lib/modeules/2.6.24-16-generic/volatile | 21:36 |
| zvacet | Ubhubdub : it should show in grub | 21:36 |
| qwiksand | fde i dont understand how to do that | 21:36 |
| fde | Ubhubdub: after installing the resulting .deb from make-kpkg you can just 'update-grub' and restart. | 21:36 |
| jasperarcher | guest: it says the same thing for the second line | 21:36 |
| zeker | lynet, I know the theory, never done the practice. since desktop OS =/= server OS, i figured it would impose a problem, since most OS's were set up to handle personal firewalls, and not necessarily to be gateway trafficers | 21:36 |
| fde | qwiksand: copy and paste not including ' 's into a terminal | 21:37 |
| xaziva | http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=4864979#post4864979 | 21:37 |
| guest | jasperarcher, is there anything that says "/dev/sd" ? | 21:37 |
| zvacet | Ubhubdub : different number | 21:37 |
| maap_rj | erUSUL, i will look this distro now ;) thanks for the tip | 21:37 |
| Ubhubdub | fde, update grub? ok that's a thing you should guide me through | 21:37 |
| GhostFish | How do you revert back to the orginal Ubuntu drivers so I can get rid of this damn white screen of death ????????/// | 21:37 |
| bullgard4 | Kl4m: I am not nervous. I am interested in normal functioning. And up to now my Tracker does not work all right in Hardy. For example it does not stop indexing or something similar. | 21:37 |
| RightSideLeft | My screen went black on the usplash during boot-up and nothing appears to happen after that. The laptop, an HP Pavilion with AMD64, worked fine previously so I'm not sure what caused the problem. | 21:37 |
| Ubhubdub | i must edit the menu-lst? | 21:37 |
| fde | Ubhubdub: you'll just type it... it'll do it's thing | 21:37 |
| Ubhubdub | i must edit the menu.lst? | 21:37 |
| xavier_ | #ubuntu-fr | 21:37 |
| zvacet | Ubhubdub : sudo update-grub | 21:37 |
| Lynet | zeker: Ok. So, basic firewall/router fuctionality is part of the linux kernel (e.g., packet filtering, NAT). Tools like firestarter are really only providing a user interface for configuring it. | 21:38 |
| fde | Ubhubdub: It'll do that for you... and activate any initrd's you create. | 21:38 |
| Ubhubdub | zvacet, oh i see | 21:38 |
| qwiksand | fde can u send it again not including that things i'm not suppose to paste | 21:38 |
| jasperarcher | guest: there is a /dev/sdc1 1.9 GiB, 1GiB free, I think this is the pen drive with my pictures and documents on it... I should also say that so far I have always had to boot via a (different) pen drive, since I couldn't install from CD (physical damage to CD-ROM) | 21:38 |
| Ubhubdub | ok let me do this now | 21:38 |
| StavFX | no one know how to help me with creox? | 21:38 |

| ghostknife | Damn scrolling is slow in firefox | 21:38 |
| ghostknife | I seriously regret this upgrade. | 21:38 |
| qwiksand | zvacet i;m doing just that now | 21:38 |
| ghostknife | Is there a way to revert ? | 21:38 |
| RightSideLeft | StavFX:What was your Creox problem? | 21:38 |
| zeker | lynet, I see what you mean | 21:38 |
| erUSUL | ghostknife: no | 21:38 |
| xaziva | Hey, what IRC program do u use? | 21:38 |
| ghostknife | :< | 21:38 |
| erUSUL | xaziva: irssi | 21:39 |
| Kl4m | bullgard4: I removed it and asked tracker to reindex. it recreated it | 21:39 |
| Starnestommy | xaziva: xchat, irssi, xchat-gnome, konversation, or telnet | 21:39 |
| ghostknife | Are there better gtk engines that murrina or clearlooks? | 21:39 |
| erUSUL | !info irssi > xaziva | 21:39 |
| fde | Starnestommy: telnet? ouch | 21:39 |
| Mathman | irssi? weak. real men use telnet | 21:39 |
| bullgard4 | Kl4m: How long did it take? | 21:39 |
| StavFX | RightSideLeft: it won't actually do any effects for my Line In although it doesn't give any error either (i have jackd running in the background) | 21:39 |
| qwiksand | fde did that and nothing happened | 21:39 |
| RightSideLeft | StavFX: are you sure your line in works? | 21:40 |
| Proteque | hey there. | 21:40 |
| erUSUL | Mathman: well to be fair a use a combination of socat and raw tty scapping codes ;P | 21:40 |
| neocrypter | how do I configure my monitor? | 21:40 |
| Kl4m | bullgard4: it depends on how much stuff you have. On my office machine it's about 15 minutes | 21:40 |
| StavFX | yes i can hear my guitar, just no effects | 21:40 |
| qwiksand | zvacet what happens after completion? | 21:40 |
| fde | qwiksand: You said that you installed VirtualBox and got those errors? | 21:40 |
| pr0nGuy | I want to upgrade from Gutsy to Hardy. Do I need to back up my home directory? | 21:40 |
| Proteque | I tried installing newest ubuntu on a MBP. but seems the hardware accelerated X is not working out of the box. ATI X1600. Is there anything I should do to enable it? | 21:40 |
| zeker | lynet, I have a clean install of ubuntu. I have both ethernet cards set up already, one's ip is set for internal traffic, the other for external (internet) traffic. If I direct a PC to ubuntu as its gateway, should it work even if the firewall isn't configured? | 21:40 |
| RightSideLeft | StavFX: did you click the run engine button in Creox (something like that)-I think its icon is little gears or something | 21:40 |
| erUSUL | pr0nGuy: no | 21:40 |
| kane77 | how can I do such a thing: I need list of all files that end with -1.jpg or -2.jpg etc (those are duplicates)? | 21:40 |
| matt444 | why are fonts in epiphany always so tiny and how do i correct taht? | 21:40 |
| StavFX | yes, nothing happens | 21:41 |
| bullgard4 | Kl4m: I did the same as you. It did not finish after 4 hours on my laptop computer. | 21:41 |
| zvacet | qwiksand . if you mean after installing ubuntu extras then you should be able to play music | 21:41 |
| fde | matt444: It should obey System > Preferences > Fonts. | 21:41 |
| Mathman | pr0nGuy: depends on what you mean by "upgrade". | 21:41 |
| qwiksand | fde forgot to tell you, i went into synaptic, search of virtualbox and completely removed all of them | 21:41 |
| RightSideLeft | StavFX: youhave the effects enabled on the right side? | 21:41 |
| matt444 | <fde> i don't have a system > preferences > fonts | 21:41 |
| fde | qwiksand: Did you try restarting after that? | 21:41 |
| Mathman | pr0nGuy: but heck, it never hurts to back up your home directory anyway | 21:41 |
| guest | jasperarcher, so when you installed it you booted it from a pen drive? | 21:42 |
| StavFX | terminal says, but nothing else happens. and yes effects are enabled | 21:42 |
| StavFX | JACK tmpdir identified as [/dev/shm]SSE2 detected | 21:42 |
| GhostFish | How do you revert back to the orginal Ubuntu drivers so I can get rid of this damn white screen of death ????????/// | 21:42 |
| pr0nGuy | Mathman: using the update manager (GUI) | 21:42 |
| Kl4m | bullgard4: I think it should manage this, but maybe you have a cyclic symlink somewhere? | 21:42 |
| qwiksand | fde havent restarted since, restart now? | 21:42 |
| Lynet | zeker: By default, it won't route. And unless you have internet-routable adresses on the internal network, you will have to do NAT (sometimes also called ipmasq). | 21:42 |
| Mathman | pr0nGuy: that shouldn't touch your home directory at all, so no. | 21:42 |
| qwiksand | zvacet its not working, restart first? | 21:42 |
| fde | matt444: gnome-appearance-properties ... in package 'gnome-control-center' | 21:43 |
| fde | qwiksand: yup | 21:43 |
| jasperarcher | guest: yes, since my CD-ROM doesn't work I put the install files on the USB and followed the instructions on pendrivelinux.com, i did not want to have to boot from a pen drive each time. However, when I set my BIOS to boot from my internal HD first, it hangs on a black screen with "GRUB _" | 21:43 |
| zeker | lynet, by internet-routable, do you mean DHCP enabled? | 21:43 |
| davidfetter | hello | 21:43 |
| qwiksand | fde soon come, will do just that | 21:43 |
| bullgard4 | Kl4m: How can I check for cyclic symlinks? | 21:43 |

| xaziva | Is there possible to mount a windows share map= | 21:44 |
| Lynet | zeker: No, I mean a block of adresses you have received by your ISP. For home/small businesses that's usually not done so don't worry about it. :) | 21:44 |
| guest | davidfetter, "uname -a" | 21:44 |
| jasperarcher | guest: the only way for me to boot is to have the pen drive, and in the pen drive menu, i choose "boot from hard drive" .. and then it works. its kind of annoying, and i would like to skip this extra step | 21:44 |

| neocrypter | ty | 21:44 |
| Kl4m | guest, davidfetter : cat /etc/issue | 21:44 |
| Myrtti | guest: that tell's the version of the kernel, not ubuntu | 21:44 |
| davidfetter | Kl4m, guest, thanks :) | 21:44 |
| fde | davidfetter: no, do what Myrtti said | 21:44 |
| zvacet | Ubhubdub .: what happened | 21:44 |
| Ubhubdub | i did sudo apt-get install kernel-package && man make-kpkg | 21:45 |
| davidfetter | fde, Myrtti thanks :) | 21:45 |
| RightSideLeft | StavFX: how do you have Jack set up? | 21:45 |
| fde | Ubhubdub: Ok... that won't have gotten you a kernel... that is instructions how to build a kernel. | 21:45 |
| belor1 | Help, No themes will change the look of the folder icons | 21:45 |
| bullgard4 | davidfetter: 'lsb_release -a' | 21:45 |
| StavFX | i run it with the command jackd -d alsa -d hw:0 | 21:45 |
| Ubhubdub | No manual entry for make-kpkg | 21:45 |
| guest | jasperarcher, i'm thinking you're running from the pen drive and not an actual install on your hard drive. i'm afraid i dont know how to help you out with that problem | 21:45 |
| Ubhubdub | that's what it said | 21:46 |
| fde | Ubhubdub: you installed kernel-package, correct? | 21:46 |
| davidfetter | bullgard4, thanks :) | 21:46 |
| Ubhubdub | fde, i have the full source, not a .deb package | 21:46 |
| sortudo_78 | fde: may i wait for your help? | 21:46 |
| zeker | lynet, yay, one less thing to worry about :) | 21:46 |
| Ubhubdub | oh | 21:46 |
| belor1 | Help, No icon themes will change the look of the folder icons | 21:46 |

| mib_ma5qwk | i'm trying to watch a dvd using totem or vlc and they both say that the source is unreadable | 21:46 |
| Ubhubdub | my bad, i was trying to install the full source | 21:47 |
| Ubhubdub | lol | 21:47 |
| mib_ma5qwk | i know the dvd works, and one time, it worked in totem | 21:47 |
| Ubhubdub | let me try again | 21:47 |
| jasperarcher | guest: i don't have any documents or files that i really need on here (only been a few days now), maybe I should just try a fresh install? | 21:47 |
| StavFX | RightSideLeft: i'm unregistered, let me reg real quick so i can pm u back | 21:47 |
| fde | Ubhubdub: Yes... make-kpkg will take that source, and create a .deb for easy management on a debian system. | 21:47 |
| sortudo_78 | ok fde | 21:47 |
| zeker | lynet, so how can I configure ubuntu to route? | 21:47 |
| unop | grims, it's probably wiser to make the proftpd user a member of the www-data group | 21:47 |
| Lynet | zeker: Firestarter should take care of all that. | 21:47 |
| guest | mib_ma5qwk, try installing libdvdcss2 | 21:47 |
| grims | unop, how would i do that? :] | 21:47 |
| grims | just chown? | 21:47 |
| guest | jasperarcher, that would probably the easiest fix | 21:48 |
| Ubhubdub | ok now | 21:48 |
| Ubhubdub | something is downloading | 21:48 |

| jasperarcher | guest: off to try that now, thank you for your help and patience today | 21:48 |
| unop | grims, well first, what does this return? getent passwd | grep -i proftpd | 21:48 |
| Ubhubdub | i did sudo apt-get install kernel-package && man make-kpkg | 21:48 |
| guest | jasperarcher, you're welcome | 21:48 |
| fde | Ubhubdub: Once that's done, 'man make-kpkg' ... | 21:48 |
| Ubhubdub | what would happen after this files are downloaded? | 21:49 |
| mib_ma5qwk | does anyone know why a dvd taht looks like it's mounting correctly would fail to play in totem? | 21:49 |
| grims | unop, proftpd:x:110:65534::/var/run/proftpd:/bin/false | 21:49 |
| Ubhubdub | i see | 21:49 |
| fde | Ubhubdub: you'll be able to use make-kpkg | 21:49 |
| unop | grims, then this should do. sudo adduser proftpd www-data | 21:49 |
| mirdin76 | need some install advice: on a new install I can get to recovery mode, is there a way to install ubuntu desktop from the cd from the command line? | 21:49 |
| Ubhubdub | ok now... | 21:49 |
| fde | Ubhubdub: I really don't think it's a good idea at this point for you to be building your own kernels... I will not be assisting with that process either. | 21:49 |
| unop | grims, you might need to restart proftpd there | 21:50 |

| mib_ma5qwk | ok | 21:51 |

| guest | lightfight, it has nothing to do with ubuntu. either your BIOS or CD drive not reading it | 21:56 |
| zvacet | lightfight : no it is something with windows you can not install it | 21:56 |
| jeremie78 | hello | 21:56 |

| fde | zvacet: His video and audio devices are acting up since he added the virtualbox modules... that is just one example of a symptom... nothing directly to do with gstreamer though, it is the audio device in that case. | 22:00 |
| fde | thinkingfrog: Yup. | 22:00 |

| qwiksand | fde i've uploaded the files..keep in mind though that the card is not in the system now | 22:14 |
| amenado | XB23-> you can unplug the cable temporarily..so his session will stop for the moment then turn it back on..kind a harazz him a bit | 22:14 |
| fde | XB23: you can sudo pkill -9 ssh in that case (sudo required as it likely isn't your user, so needs more privs) | 22:14 |
| magnetron | mib_0abd8m: i had a similar problem. what i did was i used the gparted live CD for the partioning, then did just the installing and formatting in the ubuntu installer | 22:14 |
| fde | qwiksand: did you get the URL for the paste? | 22:14 |

| amenado | cobrien-> can you paste your /etc/network/interfaces file? | 22:21 |
| cobrien | phiqtion: you can't! It's stuck in the BIOS now! You will be forever with Kubuntu! muhahahaha! | 22:21 |

| _polto_ | hello all | 22:23 |
| fde | qwiksand: Anyway, yeah, then I don't know what's wrong. | 22:23 |
| unop | Phantal-, well, the recommended way to go is try and enable the gutsy-backports repo and try again, if not, you will need to either compile the hardy sources or upgrade | 22:24 |
| qwiksand | fde, damn! i'm so depressed | 22:24 |

| ubottu | I am ubottu, the all-knowing infobot, standing in for ubotu while he's getting his haircut done, nose powdered, updated and transitioned to his new gorgeous looks in the near future ;) | 22:24 |
| sebsebseb | mib_0abd8m: the installer has it's own basic parition thing. I suggest doing your partitions in Gparted first, and then using the installer to install | 22:24 |
| amenado | mib_0abd8m-> you have to use a terminal and execute gparted | 22:24 |
| fde | qwiksand: Sorry man... I don't do nvidia ... for the reasons you're encountering. | 22:24 |
| fde | qwiksand: I paid $200 more for my computer simply to avoid such things... | 22:24 |
| Phantal- | unop, i just did an apt-get upgrade, and afterward it shows up when i do apt-get install postgresql-8.3* ... but when I actually do: apt-get install postgresql-8.3, it says no installation candidate | 22:25 |
| fde | (well, that and it was simply a much better system - but all intel devices) | 22:25 |
| qwiksand | fde i want to know though if this problem will be corrected if i use a different card | 22:25 |
| minus198 | Hi.. Gnome-power-manager can only be set to turn of the monitor after 11 minutes or higher. I want to be able to set it to 5 minutes. How do I do that? | 22:25 |

| fde | jburd: ahh... I'll shush then :P | 22:28 |
| unop | Phantal-, by 'upgrade' i meant, move from gutsy to hardy .. but that can be inconvenient .. the recommended way is to add a deb-src line for the hardy repos in your /etc/apt/sources.list, then do something like. apt-get update; apt-get build-dep postgresql-8.3 postgresql_client-8.3; apt-get source -b postgresql-8.3 postgresql_client-8.3; | 22:28 |

| Daisuke_Ido | no, no you can't, because you need fwcutter, which you have to be online to get | 22:36 |

| meuerro | would anybody know which font is used in the ubuntu logo? | 22:41 |
| kuda | duke_of_cal, Mine will freeze if i use the screen to suspend, but not the command. | 22:41 |

| gregbrady | Daisuke_Ido, not a router issue, location. | 22:42 |
| meuerro | zethero: do you have the compiz config package installed? | 22:42 |
| anabol | what use would get out of learning shell scripting besides having fun making my own commands and making command line more customized? what is it primary purpose? | 22:42 |

| boz | help /dev/cdrom is pt of mount CD ? | 22:42 |
| gregbrady | I will haul it here and wire it up I suppose | 22:42 |
| sebsebseb | anabol: to be a cool geek :d that's the primary purpouse. more seriosulely though you can save a load of time when you know how to use it well | 22:43 |
| kuda | anabol, Shell scripting helps automate tasks, thats what i mainly use it for. | 22:43 |
| Zyrando | meuerro, still having a problem... | 22:43 |

| Shadow420 | anabol any Linux OS is good for shell scripting just depends on your taste of a Linux Distro | 22:46 |
| hacknslash | anabol, its all there ready to go | 22:46 |
| kuda | anabol, Its all there already | 22:46 |
| meuerro | zyrando: for the packages you take the .deb files | 22:46 |
| mneptok | anabol: the only prerequisite to shell scripting is a shell. and every Unix ever has shipped with a shell. | 22:46 |
| _polto_ | I would apply a simple patch and upload it to my PPA.. | 22:46 |

| shreeki | Hi, I was told that to try to make the computer run smoother (ie. not as slow as it is), I am to do a 'clean upgrade'. I have already installed Heron (two days ago) and I want to know if it is possible to do a clean upgrade even though I just installed it. Where would I go or how would I go about doing a clean upgrade? And if I do, does my other partitions get removed (I have Vista installed on a seperate partition | 22:48 |
| === zChris is now known as zChris_ | ||
| MichelciaS | ok.. sorry, I'm new here and my english is wrong | 22:48 |
| MichelciaS | :D | 22:48 |
| meuerro | anabol: have you looked in the "how-to" section of the forums? | 22:49 |
| anabol | alright guys thanks for all the help and support, <3 | 22:49 |
| MrKeishii | how do i download and install The Widget Factory??? | 22:49 |
| anabol | tc all, ill be back later with more questions ;) | 22:49 |
| Shadow420 | !widget factory | 22:49 |
| ubottu | Factoid widget factory not found | 22:49 |
| anabol | meuerro: not yet.. but i will have to head out atm | 22:49 |
| Shadow420 | !find widget factory | 22:50 |
| ubottu | Found: libcwidget-dev, libcwidget-doc, libcwidget3, libcwidget3-dbg, bwidget (and 19 others) | 22:50 |
| anabol | bye | 22:50 |
| magnetron | shreeki: "clean upgrade" means to remove all system files and add them again, to get rid of various changes you've done yourself. it shoudln't be necessary. | 22:50 |
| meuerro | bye | 22:50 |
| MrKeishii | how do i download and install The Widget Factory in Terminal? | 22:50 |

| UnknownFear | hello? i need some help with sound | 22:50 |
| UnknownFear | i just installed ubuntu 7.10 | 22:50 |
| sebsebseb | UnknownFear: 7.10 is the old version | 22:51 |
| svenstaro | id need some help concerning global variables. how does my compiler/IDE know where $(WX) is for example? | 22:51 |
| sebsebseb | UnknownFear: 8.04 Hardy Heron is the latest | 22:51 |
| Shadow420 | MrKeishii use sudo apt-get install from terminal then !find Widget factory | 22:51 |
| meuerro | plus, it's long term support | 22:51 |
| === zChris_ is now known as zChris | ||
| MrKeishii | okay | 22:51 |
| UnknownFear | so should i uninstall 8.10 and install 8.04 hardy heron? | 22:51 |
| prolix | hello | 22:51 |
| khamael | can I uninstall pulseaudio? I am using programs that doesn`t work with it | 22:52 |
| prolix | does 8.04 install within windows? | 22:52 |
| meuerro | UnknownFear: open synaptic | 22:52 |
| shreeki | magnetron: But I was told it would be the best way to get my computer to be as fast as it was prior to upgrading to Hardy. I just don't know the steps to do it. And if all system files and removed and added again, is it only within the partition that holds the system files? I'm worried that my Vista stuff will be gone or something. | 22:52 |
| Shadow420 | UnknownFaer you mean 7.10 and launch the update manager | 22:52 |
| hacknslash | prolix, no it doesnt | 22:52 |
| meuerro | first, do update, then do upgrade | 22:52 |
| sebsebseb | prolix: yes 8.04 can be installed inside WIndows, but it is best to use the old/standard way and partition the hard disk | 22:52 |
| prolix | hacknslash: huh. that's odd, i thought i read a relase stating it could. thank you | 22:52 |
| gribelu | UnknownFear: 7.10 not 8.10.. but yeah you should install 8.04 especially because it's a fresh install. We could help you, or you could upgrade.. but it's better in the long run to just remove 7.10 and install 8.04 | 22:52 |
| sebsebseb | prolix: after all think about it what if Windows screws up, Ubuntu screws up then to? | 22:53 |
| UnknownFear | im running the livecd because i am partitoning my harddrive so i cant really do anything at the moment | 22:53 |
| meuerro | shrreeki: others partitions should be untouched | 22:53 |
| prolix | sebsebseb: well, i have debian on another partition, but i'd like the flexibility of a *nix o.s. when i'm on the winders side | 22:53 |
| stemount^ | Hey everyone, has anyone got 8.04 live CD onto a USB pen/thumb drive? | 22:53 |
| hacknslash | prolix, you need to shrink the windows partition, then install 8.04 | 22:53 |
| sebsebseb | prolix: Wubi will install it inside Windows yes, but you carn't use it when your inside Windows if you install it with Wubi | 22:53 |
| meuerro | you mean you still have to install it and you are just preparing the drive for it? | 22:53 |
| shreeki | meuerro: so what are the the steps to do a 'clean upgrade'? go through terminal... etc. etcv...? | 22:53 |
| PovIpod | prolix: use a VM | 22:54 |
| prolix | sebsebseb: ? | 22:54 |
| stueng | does anyone know how I can test snmptrapd.... there are no log files in /var/log | 22:54 |
| UnknownFear | can i just cancel the partition editor and uninstall ubuntu? | 22:54 |
| sebsebseb | prolix: wubi is just a way to put Windows on your hard disk instead of it having it's own partitions, and so by using your Windows partition | 22:54 |
| UnknownFear | and how do i actually uninstall ubuntu without messing up my other partition? | 22:54 |
| magnetron | shreeki: a clean upgrade involves: 1. make sure your /home folder is on a separate partition 2. format the partition that used to hold the root partition of ubuntu. 3. install ubuntu like if it never was there, except make sure to tell it about your /home partition | 22:54 |
| meuerro | shreeki: the update/upgrade thing I said was for UnknownFear | 22:54 |
| sebsebseb | prolix: if you want to run WIndows and Ubuntu at the same time, well then your after a virtual machine | 22:54 |
| Shadow420 | prolix or do on better get another Hard Drive | 22:55 |
| stemount^ | definitely no Ubuntu pen drive installers? :'( | 22:55 |
| xaziva | I want to mount smb://boden/pfilm/ to a folder on my computer it's possible? | 22:55 |
| ferris_ | who told me about wine and ie4linux? | 22:55 |
| magnetron | stemount^: there are. | 22:55 |
| in4mer | interest | 22:55 |
| meuerro | UnknownFear, if you didn't choose to modify the other partitions they will be untouched | 22:55 |
| prolix | meh | 22:55 |
| magnetron | !install | stemount^ | 22:55 |
| ubottu | stemount^: Ubuntu can be installed in a lot of ways. Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation for documentation. Problems during install? See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CommonProblemsInstall. Don't want to use a CD? Try http://tinyurl.com/3exghs - See also !automate | 22:55 |
| prolix | i thought it would be something like cygwin or andlinux | 22:55 |
| grandmaster_ | anyone know if there's support for the soundblaster xfi fatal1ty cards? | 22:55 |
| UnknownFear | so it is safe to cancel the partition editor? | 22:55 |
| svenstaro | id need some help concerning global variables. how does my compiler/IDE know where $(WX) is for example? | 22:55 |
| sebsebseb | prolix: Cygwin is basically a Linux shell emulater than can run some programs | 22:56 |
| meuerro | stemount: the usb install process should work with any iso of ubuntu | 22:56 |
| Master_Z | hellow | 22:56 |
| sebsebseb | prolix: andlinux is a bit like WIne really except it's on WIndows and for running Linux apps | 22:56 |
| Master_Z | What is Ubuntu's default GUI format? | 22:56 |
| prolix | sebsebseb: i use cygwin, as a matter of fact that's how i'm here now | 22:56 |
| Master_Z | (Compiz, metacity, etc) | 22:56 |
| stemount^ | Thanks meuerro / magnetron, was useful | 22:56 |
| Daisuke_Ido | prolix: what, on irc? | 22:56 |
| sebsebseb | prolix: you can run a real Ubuntu installation inside WIndows inside a virtual machine | 22:56 |
| prolix | sebsebseb: thank you, and the others who helped. | 22:57 |
| stemount^ | I had 7.10 running off a pen drive, but I somehow made 8.04 go wrong :( | 22:57 |
| prolix | Daisuke_Ido: yes | 22:57 |
| MauL^ | is there a linux competitor of BizTalk? | 22:57 |
| Matic`Makovec | I remember having a nice program on Gutsy which ran .bin file (mounted it actually) by itself. Now I upgraded to Hardy and seems this is lost. Would anyone know the name of the program? | 22:57 |
| prolix | irssi in cygwin | 22:57 |
| Master_Z | question, what is ubuntu's gui? (metacity, beryl, etc) | 22:57 |
| meuerro | Master_Z: gnome | 22:57 |
| jasperarcher | hello, i installed 8.04 from a USB drive (CD-ROM on laptop has physical damage) -- I seem to have installed it actually onto the USB... also i can only boot from the USB, and then select "boot from hard drive" to get into ubuntu. I want to do a fresh install but when i choose that option it spits out some USB drive errors and i get dropped into BusyBox... any help would be much appreciated. any way to do a fresh ins | 22:57 |
| jasperarcher | tall from here within the OS? i'm only using 8.04 on my laptop, no other OS installed | 22:57 |
| Daisuke_Ido | prolix: you know there are a ton of windows irc clients, and even irssi for windows... | 22:57 |
| sebsebseb | prolix: check this out :) http://www.virtualbox.org :) | 22:57 |
| sebsebseb | virtualbox.org :) | 22:57 |
| meuerro | that's the default desktop/window manager | 22:57 |
| prolix | Daisuke_Ido: irssi for windows just installs cygwin and runs from it | 22:57 |
| prolix | Daisuke_Ido: that's what i have | 22:57 |
| Daisuke_Ido | ouch | 22:57 |
| Daisuke_Ido | hah | 22:58 |
| Shadow420 | Master_Z ubuntu GUI is Gnome | 22:58 |
| prolix | it's not so bad | 22:58 |
| Daisuke_Ido | alrighty then :D | 22:58 |
| prolix | sebsebseb: thanky | 22:58 |
| Master_Z | meurro: so if I went to a website where I could download themes, what formats could I download? | 22:58 |
| Daisuke_Ido | no, i just expected there to be a native build | 22:58 |
| sebsebseb | prolix: you can also run already made VMware virtual machines in virtualbox | 22:58 |
| Ubhubdub | hello | 22:58 |
| meuerro | Master_Z: go to gnomelook.org | 22:58 |
| fiory69 | ciao a tutti!!! | 22:58 |
| prolix | that's what i thought, too, but apparently they chose to work smarter, not harder. | 22:58 |
| sebsebseb | prolix: yes for examle an already made Ubuntu virtual machine that is in the VMware format will run in virtualbox | 22:58 |
| Daisuke_Ido | prolix: makes perfect sense :) | 22:58 |
| MauL^ | is there any BizTalk* kind of software for linux? | 22:58 |
| Shadow420 | Master_Z also theres KDE and one other one | 22:58 |
| Ubhubdub | i have tried to update my kernel with kernelcheck | 22:59 |
| stemount^ | Master_Z, there is GDM, KDM and XFCE | 22:59 |
| fiory69 | italiani' | 22:59 |
| meuerro | also: you probably have compiz installed, while metacity is something that works inside gnome that you would need to get from synaptic | 22:59 |
| prolix | thank all of you kind ubuntu people | 22:59 |
| Daisuke_Ido | stemount^: that made no sense | 22:59 |
| gregbrady | Daisuke_Ido....all is well! Thanks. | 22:59 |
| Ubhubdub | how can i remove a directory? | 22:59 |
| shreeki | magnetron: i have saved all things in my /home folder to a USB so i don't care if it's all deleted. i'm new to ubuntu (VERY NEW) so formating a partition that holds the root and installing ubuntu like it was never there is all very .... unknown to me. is there a site that goes through the steps of doing that? | 22:59 |
| Daisuke_Ido | you listed two display managers and a desktop environment. | 22:59 |
| Daisuke_Ido | gregbrady: glad to see it worked :D | 23:00 |
| stemount^ | my bad | 23:00 |
| stemount^ | :x | 23:00 |
| meuerro | rm /name of directory | 23:00 |
| Daisuke_Ido | xdm? :D | 23:00 |
| stemount^ | yeah | 23:00 |
| Matic`Makovec | rm -rf dir Ubhubdub | 23:00 |
| Daisuke_Ido | no worries | 23:00 |
| stemount^ | thats what I meant, heh | 23:00 |
| gregbrady | Daisuke_Ido, pain in the butt, but it works... | 23:00 |
| fiory69 | qualcuno conosce italien ? | 23:00 |
| Daisuke_Ido | gregbrady: yeah, i blame broadcom for being so stubborn about providing real drivers | 23:00 |
| gregbrady | Daisuke_Ido, much better than the alternative....XP | 23:00 |
| Ubhubdub | Matic`Makovec, what do the flags -rf do? | 23:00 |
| gregbrady | Daisuke_Ido, yes, agreed....Broadcom is a pain. Not Ubuntu. | 23:01 |
| Matic`Makovec | rm --help | 23:01 |
| magnetron | shreeki: i've never seen such a site. unless you've installed a lot of software in ubuntu, there will be a very little difference doing a clean install. | 23:01 |
| hacknslash | Ubhubdub, type man rm | 23:01 |
| Daisuke_Ido | the only other chipset i see issues with (and i'm sure i'm missing some people have had problems with) is ralink's RT73 | 23:01 |
| meuerro | remove recursively | 23:01 |
| Ubhubdub | thanks | 23:01 |
| hacknslash | Ubhubdub, it will explain | 23:01 |
| shreeki | magnetron: i don't know how else to solve my original problem: slow computer. nothing is running as fast as it was prior to updating to heron and i don't know how to go about solving it... | 23:02 |
| Ubhubdub | it did | 23:02 |
| Ubhubdub | very good | 23:02 |

| Ubhubdub | do you happen to know how can i remove kernelcheck? | 23:03 |
| === blinzeln is now known as Hydrogen | ||

| Ubhubdub | Rafabe, please use the Entire disk - guided method of partitioning your hard disk | 23:13 |

| meuerro | see if it gets better | 23:13 |
| ckin2001 | Wirta-, try mount, look for device / directory with cdrom, and umount it | 23:13 |
| Mathman | asdfqwer: depending on what you're after, sftp would perhaps be the simplest | 23:13 |
| Ubhubdub | Rafabe, that'll make all for you | 23:14 |

| meuerro | Wirta: doesn't the eject button (the mechanical one, on the drive) work? | 23:15 |
| Ubhubdub | Rafabe, i see | 23:15 |
| ckin2001 | Wirta-, eject shows up as a command on my machine | 23:15 |
| meuerro | shreeki, reboot, open terminal, type dmesg, hit enter, and then look for any errors in the output | 23:15 |
| schregge | hi, i have a problem with xen 3.1 and hardy.... | 23:15 |
| mfisch | I'm using kubuntu and it's not letting me install ubuntu-desktop, errors with broken packages: http://paste.ubuntu.com/9614/ | 23:15 |
| Wirta- | meuerro: no, it pops up a window that sais: An application is preventing the volume 'WizardsWarriors' from being unmounted | 23:16 |
| dembo | Hi | 23:16 |
| schregge | when i try to run xm -c vm.cfg then i get no console output | 23:16 |

| meuerro | Wirta-: brute force killing the install process would surely let you open the drive | 23:17 |
| meuerro | but that would mean aborting the install | 23:17 |
| ckin2001 | Wirta-, type mount | grep cdrom - then umount "whatever device is the cdrom" | 23:18 |
| funddevi | hello | 23:18 |
| Wirta- | meuerro: I know it would... but the problem is that I want to complete the installation process? | 23:18 |

| xaziva | I want to mount smb://boden/pfilm/ as /home/jonathan/boden | 23:18 |
| xaziva | How do I do? | 23:18 |
| ckin2001 | xaziva, something like mount -t smbfs //boden/pfilm /home/jonathan/boden | 23:19 |

| albuntu | hello to all. i wanted to try hardy server edition but i am not so experienced so what i excatly want to know is that does it come with desktop environment or i have to add gnome later ? | 23:20 |

| NoJunkFromLinux | I am looking for a server control panel for Ubuntu 8.04 - any ideas? | 23:22 |

| Scrounch | thor^^: dpkg -i --force-architecture it's too good | 23:22 |
| albuntu | visualdeception: i thought so too. do i have just to do apt-get install gnome-desktop-environment or first i have to install some things before this ? | 23:23 |
| NoJunkFromLinux | I was looking at openpanel - but unable to download, and source added via ubuntu was unable to refresh | 23:23 |
| Wirta- | ok, any easy way how do I create image from cd rom in linux and how do I mount it? any softwares like daemon tools that works in linux? | 23:23 |
| visualdeception | albuntu, you should just need to apt-get install it...I would verify that is the name of the package by running aptitude search gnome-desktop-environment | 23:24 |

| _paradox_ | kk hang on | 23:28 |

| ckin2001 | Rafabe, separate - you can always ln -s the partition into /home if you want | 23:28 |

| genii | _paradox_: Since the bookmarking built into Firefox already allows for searching,sorting,renaming, etc I'm not sure exactly what it is you are looking for | 23:38 |

| Rafabe | papa: it's during the regular install, it asks me where to put the bootloader (after I already finished the partition selection) | 23:41 |
| visualdeception | NBZ4live, yes, add sudo before it. It will install envyng which is what I use to install my ATI drivers | 23:41 |

| sydlex | i am trying to do a fresh install of ubuntu 8.04 i386 on my amd64 custom-built system with ASUS mobo, nVidia GF7800GTX (PCI-E), SATA-II drive. after half an hour of read errors on fd0 (i dont have a floppy) and sr0 (?) i receive a busybox prompt. running init returns an error from kinit. kubuntu 7.10 installed perfectly well, not sure whats up. any ideas, or links to a bug and fix if ive missed something obvious on ubuntuforums. | 23:51 |

| Scunizi | sydlex: good.. since you're going to reformat use the manual partition portion of install and just delete the kubuntu partitions.. you could probably leave swap. recreate the partitions using 9-12 gigs for / and 1 gig for swap the rest for /home.. format and you should be good to go. | 23:57 |
| sydlex | KaRLyCoS: hablo espanol, pero no soy fluente. con que puedo ayudarle? | 23:57 |
| Malaz | jmiller: Well, if you just right click on the desktop pager, you can add or subtract desktops. | 23:57 |
