| kenan__ | Hi, I have an ATI 1100 and the problem that happens in Ubuntu is that randomly, the screen turns white and I can't get back to my desktop and am forced to restart my computer. I have looked all around the forums and can't find a fix and it doesn't seem many people have this problem. How can I fix this, it makes Ubuntu unpractical for me because the white screen can come up at any time and there is no cursor, panels | 00:01 |
| kenan__ | , etc. | 00:01 |
| Nith | linkmaster03: mine is linked to /etc/alternatives/java | 00:01 |
| zChris | kenan__: try fedora | 00:01 |
| linkmaster03 | Nith: same here :( what should I change and how? | 00:01 |
| FooAtari | tried installing drivers using the driver manager kenan__ ? | 00:01 |
| makkbe | RickX: if you open up cgonf-editor and go to /desktop/gnome/applications/window_manager/default, what does it say? | 00:01 |
| Nith | linkmaster03: which java package did you install? | 00:01 |
| ArthurArchnix | The kicker is that when I say it locks up.. I mean solid. A hard-reboot is required and there is no information in any logs. Messages.. xlog...dmesg... based on the inability to find any record of an error, I have to think that I'm seeing kernel panics? | 00:02 |
| ottothecow | is there a quick way to regenerate all of my keys? | 00:02 |
| kenan__ | FooAtari: ive tried installing drivers every possible way with no luck | 00:02 |
| bassgoon | I have xp x64 and it is installed on an extended partition, if I install ubuntu 8.04 64 bit will it leave xp bootable? | 00:02 |

| lusepuster | bump... Since a few days ago, I get the error message at login that it fails to initialize HAL. Sucks, because it means that my power management on my lappy doesn't work. Tried googling but can't seem to find anything newer than Dapper. Does anyone know what might be up? | 00:03 |
| kenan__ | FooAtari: and for some odd reason it usually happens when im on firefox | 00:03 |

| yeast | anyone here can help me with ubuntu on the mac? | 00:04 |
| FooAtari | yeah bassgoon | 00:04 |
| Nith | linkmaster03: if you did an upgrade, might wanna try just purge and reinstall | 00:04 |
| Nith | linkmaster03: might be faster than searching | 00:04 |
| FooAtari | does it happen when using flash or java kenan__ ? | 00:04 |
| ArthurArchnix | Nith: intel 945 GM. I've tried setting the driver manually in xorg.conf. i810.. intel... i810 with nodri option, intel with that option, ... nothing. | 00:04 |
| Xorothal | hey guys, how can i get grub to load an existing, different menu.lst from an existing, different partition as an option in the boot menu? | 00:04 |

| ArthurArchnix | Still randomly locks up. | 00:05 |
| kenan__ | FooAtari: it happens at random | 00:05 |
| RickX | makkbe, it says metacity now. I think it change back when I saved my sessions and logged out/back in | 00:05 |

| FooAtari | Erm, I'm running Kubuntu at the moment. In the system menu somewhere. Perhaps someone else can tell you where there are kenan__ . Anyone? | 00:07 |

| Xorothal | how can i get grub to load an existing, different menu.lst from an existing, different partition as an option in the boot menu? | 00:07 |

| patifa | Xorothal: I bet chainload will do it | 00:07 |
| linkmaster03 | Nith: thanks | 00:07 |
| Nith | linkmaster03: np, you'll have to sudo that too | 00:08 |
| linkmaster03 | ok | 00:08 |

| Nith | ArthurArchnix: freezing w/out any logging happened when I had the gfx card restricted drivers installed | 00:08 |
| lorenzo_ | sorry i meant i am on hardy, 64 | 00:09 |
| ArthurArchnix | Yeah... I appreciate you chiming up nith ... I'm not alone in having hard hardy problems with x. But the lack of error messages makes it almost impossible to diagnose and solve. | 00:09 |
| Finiras | how do I make compiz fusion start by default every time I start ubuntu? right now I have to do the "compiz --replace &" command every time I start ubuntu. | 00:10 |

| Xorothal | Finiras: mine does automatically | 00:10 |
| linkmaster03 | Nith: that you called the proper path? | 00:11 |
| Nith | linkmaster03: the target of the link | 00:11 |
| Nith | linkmaster03: you said you found your java binary rite? | 00:11 |
| linkmaster03 | Nith: and the second path is what? /usr/bin/java no matter what? | 00:11 |
| linkmaster03 | Nith: yes | 00:11 |
| Nith | its that | 00:11 |
| linkmaster03 | ill try it | 00:11 |
| Xorothal | Finiras: try installing the tray icon (i forget the package name) | 00:11 |
| VentiMocha | exit | 00:11 |
| Finiras | ok.. is there any file that I can put a command in that ubuntu runs every time it starts? | 00:11 |
| Nith | linkmaster03: the first path should be to the location of the java bin | 00:12 |
| Xorothal | Finiras: try installing the tray icon (i forget the package name) | 00:12 |
| makkbe | Finiras: if you just go into preferences --> appearance --> desktop effects and enable it from there, does that work? | 00:12 |

| Xorothal | kk | 00:13 |
| makkbe | Finiras: yes it is | 00:13 |

| makkbe | Finiras: you can choose what level of effects you want in there | 00:13 |
| patifa | Xorothal: 'configfile file' to load a conf file, even from another drive. | 00:14 |
| makkbe | Finiras: or install compizconfig-settings-manager and control it fully | 00:14 |
| Xorothal | patifa: yeah just found that (thx 2 #damnsmalllinux) | 00:14 |

| sidelil | Lancej, did you close windows properly? Did you maybe hibernate it? | 00:32 |
| mollusk | can I ask a question? | 00:32 |
| Fishscene | !ask | mollusk | 00:32 |
| ubottu | mollusk: 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. :-) | 00:32 |
| Lancej | sidelil, I shut it down and it finished. | 00:32 |
| andrew___ | nich01: After that, if you've got another computer you can use, try putting the disks in it and seeing if they work. If so, it's the motherboard you want to take the hammer to. If not, it's the disks. | 00:32 |
| nich01 | andrew___: When I worked for Earthlink, we used to tell people to do to that too. *sigh* lost cause. :) | 00:32 |
| hollerith | phixxor:that looks okay but I'd have to check the man pages | 00:32 |

| cameron | Somehow I have 506 folders called "desktop" inside one another in my trash can. If I empty the trash, it will not remove it. How would I get rid of this? | 00:33 |
| phixxor | hollerith: eh, that's not that good :/ | 00:34 |
| Lancej | sidelil, okay, BRB | 00:34 |
| mollusk | Fishscene, debcreator allows a person to compile archives into .deb package files | 00:34 |
| andrew___ | nich01: it's rare, but I really have seen powering off work. If you know what you're doing, you're probably right about doing the latter first though :) | 00:34 |
| orangepeelbeef | how do i configure auto login in kdm | 00:34 |
| hollerith | phixxor: not a bug - my own fault not understanding when it would supercede files | 00:34 |
| Fishscene | ah | 00:34 |
| hollerith | worked a treat the first time... | 00:35 |
| nich01 | andrew___: It's always fun being new to an OS and having something go wrong that's TOTALLY unrelated to the OS> :) THanks again! | 00:35 |
| andrew___ | nich01: no problem - good luck! :) | 00:35 |
| marshall | anybody here ever played with freebsd? | 00:36 |
| j1solutions | marshal: me | 00:36 |
| gpled | i have noticed that i can ssh into my box, faster, over the internet, then on my lan. any idea why? their is a long delay before i get asked for the password | 00:36 |
| marshall | wnat do u think about it? | 00:36 |
| manzon | Hi | 00:36 |
| phixxor | hollerith: yeah, I completely understand -- moving to a clearer program is good when you're able to but I don't really want to mess with it :) | 00:36 |
| orangepeelbeef | gpled: dns | 00:36 |
| j1solutions | marshall: i like linux better | 00:36 |
| andrew___ | phixxor: quick sanity check - you're running over a trusted network, right? Your home LAN or something? Preferably not wireless? | 00:37 |
| phixxor | yes home lan | 00:37 |
| orangepeelbeef | gpled: when you ssh it tries to do a lookup on the ip address you are coming from | 00:37 |
| phixxor | unfortunately part of it is wireless | 00:37 |
| phixxor | but it uses WPA | 00:37 |
| marshall | because of the tools that it offers or administration utilities? | 00:37 |
| andrew___ | If the wireless is doing the backup, you might want to plug it in while copying - wired tends to be faster. | 00:37 |
| hollerith | phixxor:just saying careful not switch, rsync is great if you can grok it | 00:37 |
| manzon | I'm trying to find someone to help me restore my window manager, I've ended up with an X server with nothing but my background on it .. I'm in terminal using ircII now .. trying to get my desktop back | 00:38 |
| manzon | I was switcing over to avant-window-manager and AWK | 00:38 |
| gpled | orangepeelbeef: does this show up in a log somewhere? | 00:38 |
| orangepeelbeef | gpled: ya somewhere.. try auth.log | 00:38 |
| hollerith | manzon:sounds like failsafe mode - try ctrl-alt-break to get back to the login manager | 00:39 |
| [GSF]Martin | manzon: restart x? | 00:39 |
| gpled | orangepeelbeef: also, is their a way to tell sshd not to worry about dns on lan? | 00:39 |
| manzon | hollerith : I have the login .. no problem | 00:39 |
| manzon | GFSMartin: X is running fine | 00:39 |
| orangepeelbeef | gpled: you can just put a host entry for your machine | 00:39 |
| manzon | there's just no window manager | 00:39 |
| manzon | or panels | 00:39 |
| phixxor | andrew__, hollerith, yeast, this is the command I'm going with, do these look like the right options for a backup? rsync -aHx / phix@192.168.1.44:/home/phix/macbackup | 00:39 |
| manzon | or icons | 00:39 |
| Dangermouse | manzon: You changed some config file as to watch to launch when you log in right? | 00:39 |
| phixxor | Oh I forgot sudo | 00:39 |
| orangepeelbeef | gpled: or configure your dns to know that machine ;) | 00:39 |
| manzon | it's completely blank .. | 00:39 |
| Dangermouse | what* | 00:39 |
| [JF] | Hello | 00:39 |
| manzon | dangermouse right | 00:39 |
| manzon | just that | 00:40 |
| Itaku | how do i connect to an apple talk server on ubuntu? | 00:40 |
| === chryss_ is now known as chryss | ||
| j1solutions | bsd is a good choice for file server, not a desktop IMO | 00:40 |
| manzon | last I did .. was to remove the gnome-panel from the sessions .. and add AWK | 00:40 |
| hollerith | manzon: you mean console then startx or graphical login | 00:40 |
| [JF] | Is this the help channel for Ubuntu? | 00:40 |
| manzon | hollerith: X starts fine by itself .. gives me login screen. I login .. and get my desktop .. but there's nothing ther | 00:41 |
| manzon | no panels, no windows nothing. | 00:41 |
| Dangermouse | manzon: I cant for the life of me remember what file it is. Something "." in your home dir. You just to launch gnome session or something | 00:41 |
| manzon | Dangermouse . but how | 00:41 |
| sn00zer | My gnome is crashing on login, what is the text file to manage startup programs? | 00:41 |
| manzon | I can't start any .. ahh | 00:41 |
| Dangermouse | manzon: try running "gnome-session" | 00:42 |
| gpled | orangepeelbeef: hmmm, kind of tricky. im using dhcp to get my ip | 00:42 |
| manzon | Dangermouse: the session don't resond to anything | 00:42 |
| Dangermouse | manzon: .. whilst thinking about the importance of backing up config files :p | 00:42 |
| andrew___ | phixxor: Have you started the rsync server on 192.168.1.44? | 00:42 |
| manzon | can I launch things INTO the x-session from another tty in terminal | 00:42 |
| legend2440 | manzon: its gnome-session-properties | 00:42 |
| manzon | legend the file? | 00:42 |
| phixxor | andrew__ no | 00:42 |
| legend2440 | manzon: no to start the sessions gui | 00:43 |
| gpled | orangepeelbeef: thanks for the help | 00:43 |
| manzon | legend : you don't understand | 00:43 |
| andrew___ | phixxor: I always use SSH instead of an rsync daemon, so I'm not sure how you'd start one. | 00:43 |
| phixxor | andrew__ so far it prompted me for my password, 192.168.1.44's password, and hasn't said anything since | 00:43 |
| manzon | I cant access terminal from that login ! | 00:43 |
| [JF] | Excuse my english | 00:43 |
| legend2440 | manzon: oh ok | 00:43 |
| orangepeelbeef | gpled: no prob man | 00:43 |
| manzon | I opend a new tty to be able to go find help | 00:43 |
| andrew___ | phixxor: if it's just sitting there staring at you, it's probably trying to connect to the rsync server that isn't there. | 00:44 |
| manzon | and MAN is ircII something else | 00:44 |
| phixxor | oh... | 00:44 |
| [JF] | I have a question | 00:44 |
| phixxor | andrew__ what's the start command? | 00:44 |
| manzon | I'm thinking .. that I need to find the FILE that tells x what window manger to use | 00:44 |
| [JF] | How do write text in color with XChat? | 00:44 |
| legend2440 | manzon: what file are you looking for? | 00:44 |
| manzon | but I don't know where? | 00:44 |
| [JF] | How do I* | 00:44 |
| manzon | legend that's what I don't know | 00:44 |
| andrew___ | phixxor: For the rsync server? I dunno. Setting up ssh is generally a better plan, TBH. | 00:44 |
| jason_1 | is kde4 in the ubuntu repositories? | 00:45 |
| bazhang | jf you dont | 00:45 |
| phixxor | andrew__ ssh and then scp? I think rsync uses ssh | 00:45 |
| corpsegrinder | yap... | 00:45 |
| andrew___ | phixxor: it can, if you tell it to. It doesn't by default. | 00:45 |
| bazhang | jason_1, yes install kubuntu-kde4-desktop in hardy | 00:45 |
| sn00zer | how do i get gnome to stop crashing on login? | 00:45 |
| manzon | I've ran FreeBSD for server for some 10 years tho | 00:45 |
| [JF] | ok. thanks | 00:45 |
| phixxor | andrew__ oh, maybe I should cancel this command and try again | 00:45 |
| jason_1 | bazhang, you the MAN, lets hug. | 00:46 |
| manzon | How do I start a program in a x-session from terminal in another session ? :( | 00:46 |
| jason_1 | btw, should i remove kde3 stuff first? | 00:46 |
| manzon | if that's possible .. | 00:46 |
| * manzon sobbs | 00:46 | |
| bazhang | jason_1, only if you want to | 00:46 |
| andrew___ | phixxor: do you have an SSH server running on your Linux machine? | 00:46 |
| [JF] | In wich Client could I write text in color? | 00:46 |
| phixxor | andrew___: I think so. I'm sshing into it right now | 00:47 |
| bazhang | jf in irc the channel controls that outside of your name being highlighted | 00:47 |
| andrew___ | phixxor: then yes :) | 00:47 |
| jason_1 | k thx | 00:47 |
| sidelil | in hardy is it possible to display the name of the mount point of a drive on the desktop instead of the label of the partiton, as it was on gutsy? | 00:47 |
| orangepeelbeef | where is the kdm config | 00:47 |
| [GSF]Martin | <-- mIRC | 00:47 |
| manzon | legend : do you know if I can use apt-get to remove the whole shabang .. incl. the settings files .. and then readd it again ? with a clean "out of the box" config | 00:47 |
| bazhang | orangepeelbeef, tp config what | 00:47 |
| jayde_drag0n | hey room.. particularly dumb q.. i'm trying to login to my router.. i did ifconfig and got 192.168.1.102 as the inet addr.. so i assumed thats my router.. but all i get is a page that says "it works!" instead of my login page... have i missed a command to get my routers addy right.. cuz i tried -a.. and didn't get anythign extra to try | 00:47 |
| surial | Weird. We just updated our home server's ubuntu, and when I try to mount one of the harddrives (it is in fstab), I get: (loosely translated to english, this version is localized): /dev/sdd1 is already mounted, or /the/directory/im/mounting/on is busy | 00:48 |
| orangepeelbeef | bazhang: auto login | 00:48 |
| andrew___ | phixxor: You should be able to just add "--rsh=ssh" to the command-line (I think). | 00:48 |
| phixxor | andrew___ alrigt I'll give it a try, thanks | 00:48 |
| surial | But it is not mounted (according to mount with no params) and that dir is just empty. | 00:48 |
| bazhang | jayde_drag0n, should be 1.1 | 00:48 |
| manzon | anyone? | 00:48 |
| bazhang | orangepeelbeef, you might want to ask in #kubuntu | 00:48 |
| orangepeelbeef | good call thx | 00:49 |
| hollerith | phixxor:on the other box you need to do rsync --daemon | 00:49 |
| jayde_drag0n | bazhang: guh.. i'm retarded.. thank you | 00:49 |
| PCDJ | i am lost with this program lol | 00:49 |
| phixxor | hollerith: alright | 00:49 |
| PCDJ | how do you install a file that you downloaded? | 00:49 |
| bazhang | PCDJ, what file | 00:50 |
| PCDJ | sdclone 2.0 | 00:50 |
| manzon | PCDJ depends on what file that is really | 00:50 |
| hollerith | anyone has xwinwrap? | 00:50 |
| PCDJ | it is not part of add/remove | 00:50 |
| bazhang | PCDJ, is it a deb or tar.gz | 00:50 |
| alien697 | hello all | 00:50 |
| manzon | PCDJ: no I ment .. is it a tar.gz or .dep ? | 00:50 |
| [GSF]Martin | PCDJ: http://monkeyblog.org/ubuntu/installing/ | 00:50 |
| PCDJ | let me check | 00:50 |
| andrew___ | phixxor: to be precise, you need to do `rsync --daemon` on the Linux box, or `--rsh=ssh` on the Mac. Doesn't matter which. | 00:50 |
| PCDJ | there is a install.sh | 00:51 |
| alien697 | i have a question for you guys | 00:51 |
| [GSF]Martin | PCDJ: read the link above, it's very useful | 00:51 |
| cylux | alien697: Ask =D | 00:51 |
| phixxor | andrew____: alright. what if I do both? | 00:51 |
| [GSF]Martin | picrures and everything | 00:51 |
| [GSF]Martin | *t | 00:51 |
| manzon | [GSF]Martin: do you know what file I should look in, to change the window-manager loaded with X ? | 00:51 |
| PCDJ | which link? | 00:52 |
| [GSF]Martin | http://monkeyblog.org/ubuntu/installing/ | 00:52 |
| frogmeat | Hi all, I updated to 8.04 and have the same issue since, my sound card seems to conflict between two programs. I cannot run game with firefox, I need ot run the game wiht no sound. Do I add -nosound to the run command? | 00:52 |
| [GSF]Martin | i can take a browse if you want | 00:52 |
| [GSF]Martin | do you have alternate window managers installed? | 00:52 |
| manzon | Maring me or PCDJ ? | 00:52 |
| manzon | martin I ment | 00:52 |
| andrew___ | phixxor: it'll use SSH rather than the rsync daemon. Nothing wrong with that, so long as you kill the rsync daemon some time. | 00:52 |
| [GSF]Martin | manzon: booting now | 00:53 |
| alien697 | im just an end user, and was wondering how do you delete files in open office, becouse i dont see a delete command or send to trash. | 00:53 |
| alien697 | ??? | 00:53 |
| toktok_ | hello - I tried to install the nvidia beta drivers from the nvidia site, and failed - how do i tell ubuntu to completely revert back to its own set of restricted drivers/modules? | 00:53 |
| cylux | alien697: What do you mean in-openoffice? | 00:53 |
| manzon | Hmm ... I suppose I should install lynx and go on a solution hunt ;) | 00:53 |
| polpak | alien697: you don't delete files in openoffice. | 00:53 |
| manzon | Martin: thank's | 00:53 |
| [GSF]Martin | alien697: delete open office files in open office? afaik you can't do that in word either | 00:53 |
| polpak | alien697: you can use your filesystem browser for deleting them | 00:54 |
| hollerith | manzon:its somewhere in XSession.d isn't it? /etc/X11 | 00:54 |
| manzon | hollerith: I don't know :/ | 00:54 |
| bazhang | alien697, saved where? to desktop or other places use nautilus or just right click on file | 00:54 |
| cylux | In your gnome menu, at the top-left of the screen, click on "Places" and then open up one of the folders. | 00:54 |
| [GSF]Martin | manzon: i assume you want to change back to metacity? | 00:54 |
| manzon | I've only used a GUI based *nix for 3 weeks | 00:54 |
| RyanPrior | Can anybody think of a reason my computer might be swapping like crazy when only 35% of my 1GB of RAM is in use? | 00:54 |
| Broadcom | !nvidia | Toktok_ | 00:54 |
| ubottu | Toktok_: For Ati/NVidia/Matrox video cards, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto | 00:54 |
| manzon | Martin any will do right now | 00:54 |
| bazhang | RyanPrior, what does top say | 00:54 |
| hollerith | manzon:you must have just changed it so go huntng with ls -latr? | 00:55 |
| alien697 | open office word processor | 00:55 |
| frogmeat | So I turn computer on, I watch a movie on google, I close browser go to open a game, computer hangs after a few seconds, need reboot. I think it is sound conflict, should I use -nosound on the launcher? | 00:55 |
| tinin | is anyone able to watch their *.3gp cellphone videos with sound? | 00:55 |
| bazhang | alien697, but the file is saved where | 00:55 |
| manzon | hollerith: what will that help if I don't know what term to serch for | 00:55 |
| tinin | !3gp | 00:55 |
| ubottu | Factoid 3gp not found | 00:55 |
| hollerith | manzon:the last file changed will be at the bottom of the list. | 00:55 |
| tinin | !3pg | 00:55 |
| ubottu | Factoid 3pg not found | 00:55 |
| manzon | hollerith : but yes .. last night | 00:55 |
| hollerith | just a hunch | 00:56 |
| RyanPrior | bazhang: Top claims that most of my memory is in use, but the System Monitor claims that only 35% is in use., | 00:56 |
| manzon | I insalled ircII after that .. but nothing more | 00:56 |
| bazhang | RyanPrior, I would trust top more | 00:56 |
| RyanPrior | bazhang: Mem: 969008k total, 950696k used, 18312k free | 00:56 |
| manzon | hollerith : can you show me the ls parms again please | 00:56 |
| manzon | I can't scroll up in this client | 00:56 |
| alien697 | where ever it goes when you save | 00:56 |
| PCDJ | i can't find a terminal lol | 00:57 |
| manzon | PCDJ : it's right besides the any key ;) | 00:57 |
| bazhang | alien697, then go to the place you chose to save it and delete that file | 00:57 |
| PCDJ | lol | 00:57 |

| PCDJ | hey i found the anykey!!! wooohooo lol | 00:58 |
| alien697 | what if i didnt choose a place and it just automatically saved it some where | 00:58 |
| Broadcom | DonnyOsmond, is it a broadcom wireless card? | 00:58 |
| DonnyOsmond | yeah | 00:58 |
| andrew___ | RyanPrior: Use < and > in top to change the column that lines are sorted by. For me, hitting > once sorts by the memory column. When you're sorting by memory, what are the top 3 processes? | 00:58 |
| RyanPrior | bazhang: Top's output still makes no sense though. It lists Firefox as my most memory-using program, yet Firefox is using only 11% of my RAM. | 00:58 |
| Broadcom | oh, yea | 00:58 |
| eboyjr | How do I delete everything inside of a folder? Like TRUNCATE in MySQL? | 00:58 |
| Broadcom | !broadcom > DonnyOsmond | 00:58 |
| bazhang | alien697, what the file name, search for it by name | 00:58 |
| bo__bo | q | 00:59 |
| DonnyOsmond | how do i get wireless back | 00:59 |
| alien697 | ok 1 sec | 00:59 |
| andrew___ | RyanPrior: when you close FF, does it stop swapping? | 00:59 |
| RyanPrior | andrew___: How do I tell which column top is sorting by? | 00:59 |
| manzon | Hey .. isn't BitchX a terminal application ? | 00:59 |
| [GSF]Martin | manzon: you have a terminal? does metacity --replace do anything? | 00:59 |
| Mizfar | Umm.. Anyone know how to install the SpeedTouch 330 on Ubuntu 8.04 Server edition? I can get it to work on Desktop Editions because of the GUI but am a bit confused with Server. | 00:59 |
| manzon | I kind of dislike this ircII | 00:59 |
| bazhang | DonnyOsmond, go through the same process or try fwcutter | 00:59 |
| manzon | Martin | 00:59 |
| manzon | no | 00:59 |
| Broadcom | DonnyOsmond, sorry | 00:59 |
| legend2440 | manzon: do you have a terminal you can enter commands into? | 00:59 |
| manzon | Martin: I can't do anything at all from the tty whit the X session | 01:00 |
| DonnyOsmond | went through the same process | 01:00 |
| phixxor | andrew___ alright, I added -v this time, and it says building file list. so far so good I guess | 01:00 |
| DonnyOsmond | to no luck | 01:00 |
| manzon | I had to start another tty to get to a terminal | 01:00 |
| Broadcom | DonnyOsmond, did you get the private messege from ubuttu? | 01:00 |

| andrew___ | RyanPrior: there's no marker, so far as I know. Just check which row looks sorted. Should be fairly obvious. | 01:00 |
| manzon | you know ctrl+alt+shit +F%n | 01:00 |
| notjohnf | does anyone know how to fix a windows partition | 01:00 |
| manzon | err .. minus the shift | 01:00 |
| yaman | hi every one | 01:00 |
| DonnyOsmond | can i use the card without ndiswrapper | 01:00 |
| RyanPrior | andrew___: Okay. My top memory-users are Firefox, Xorg, and Xorg, with 11.7, 7.7, and 7.7 per cent memory usage, respectively. | 01:00 |
| DonnyOsmond | that would be easier | 01:01 |

| yaman | any one knows if any problem will happen if i install the ubuntu with xp and vista same time ? | 01:01 |
| RyanPrior | andrew___: No way 99% of my memory is in use according to this thing... | 01:01 |
| Broadcom | DonnyOsmond, i think you can, put the responce to lspci in pastebin | 01:01 |
| j1solutions | manzon: you said SH&T | 01:01 |
| manzon | OH Sorry | 01:01 |
| bazhang | yaman, install ubuntu last | 01:01 |
| manzon | i ment shift | 01:01 |
| bintrue|work | Ever since upgrading this morning, I've been unable to telnet into a server and run an application. Did something change that would break this? | 01:01 |
| manzon | geez | 01:01 |
| andrew___ | phixxor: It'll stay on that line for quite a while, if you're copying your whole filesystem over. Copying everything will probably take many hours, but you'll start getting more interesting messages after a while. | 01:01 |

| klepto | how's the experience? | 01:08 |
| andrew___ | RyanPrior: Yes, that makes sense. The only other thing I know to do is to start killing processes until the program goes away. That could destabilise your system enough to require you to reboot, but nothing more so long as you steer clear of sudo. | 01:08 |

| hcid | do you think cedega is good to play PES6 ??? | 01:29 |
| PCDJ | i install a script into xchat and /load -rs tells me i need perl or python plugin | 01:29 |
| Manzon | hollerith: thank's - looking | 01:29 |
| jrib | hcid: check cedega's website, they list compatibility with games | 01:29 |
| Jack_Sparrow | PCDJ How are you trying to install xchat, and which version..from where are you trying to install | 01:29 |
| Broadcom | you have them both installed? | 01:29 |
| i_own_the_circle | is it possible to access the windows folder from ubuntu like the way we do in the windows command \\ipaddress:d$ | 01:30 |
| Manzon | hollerith: not there | 01:30 |
| PCDJ | xchat i got from add/remove i used terminal to load sdclone into it now i cant start it | 01:30 |
| Broadcom | Jack_Sparrow, i think he is trying to install a plugin, not x-chat | 01:30 |
| hollerith | pen:I don't know - maybe you initramfs is pared down - you have no older one still in grub? | 01:30 |
| TelnetManta | Anyone know an alternative web browser to FireFox for Ubuntu thats in the repos? My 3.0 beta 5 sucks! | 01:30 |
| jrib | hollerith, Manzon: ~/.xsession-errors don't forget the '.' | 01:30 |
| Starnestommy | PCDJ: was it regular xchat or xchat-gnome? | 01:30 |
| PCDJ | regular | 01:31 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Broadcom Ok. what version of xchat is he using and where did he get it | 01:31 |
| hollerith | manzon:good - did gnome still not work? | 01:31 |
| yoshway | i have an external hard drive split in thirds. the first third is formated for mac os journaled, the other two fat. when i go to install ubuntu from the live cd on a pc, i'm not getting an option to install to only one of these partitions (wants to format the whole thing) so i am choosing manual, but now don't know what i'm looking at... | 01:31 |
| PCDJ | i have both | 01:31 |
| Manzon | hollerith: nope | 01:31 |
| pen | hollerith, I have one older initramfs but thats for different version | 01:31 |
| Manzon | hollerith: it does the same thing | 01:31 |
| ryancr | is there any way for 'wine' application to browse samba shares, I thought this was something that gvfs was going to bring?? | 01:31 |

| Broadcom | Jack_Sparrow, I dunno | 01:31 |
| Starnestommy | PCDJ: someone in #xchat might know how to fix it | 01:31 |
| pen | hollerith, do you mean I can use that ? | 01:31 |
| Manzon | ahhh here we go | 01:31 |
| PCDJ | will try ty | 01:31 |
| Manzon | file | 01:31 |
| wirechief | TelenetManta why not just use ff2 | 01:32 |
| hollerith | pen:couldn't hurt to try the older one | 01:32 |
| Kyle__ | whats so special about the livedvd? | 01:32 |
| pen | hollerith, alright, brb | 01:32 |
| hollerith | pen:not a solution though | 01:32 |
| Manzon | god I dislike logfiles that dont prefix entries with date:time | 01:32 |
| jrib | Kyle__: it contains all of the main repository, so you don't need to download packages from there when you install programs from main | 01:32 |
| evil_tech | kyle__:has both the alternate install and the live cd and a couple other features | 01:32 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Kyle__ the additional files that are included, the live installer the alt installer and more | 01:33 |
| hollerith | pen:maybe try console -setup agin in case it just got corrupt | 01:33 |
| Kyle__ | oh okay | 01:33 |

| Shadow420 | PCDJ try sudo cp ~/.xchat/sdclone/sdclone-x.x.pl ~/.xchat in terminal and replace the x with the version u have | 01:50 |
| astro76 | PCDJ: probably the x.x in sdclone-x.x.pl should be actual version numbers | 01:50 |
| evil_tech | spicemint: i set permissions through nautilus | 01:50 |

| astro76 | !webmin | spicemint | 01:58 |
| ubottu | spicemint: webmin is no longer supported in Debian and Ubuntu. It is not compatible with the way that Ubuntu packages handle configuration files, and is likely to cause unexpected issues with your system. See !ebox instead. | 01:58 |
| carlosqueso | PMantis: it upgrades even if it has to remove packages or install new ones...it's not really a distribution upgrade | 01:58 |
| Shadow420 | !ATI | halycon | 01:59 |
| ubottu | halycon: For Ati/NVidia/Matrox video cards, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto | 01:59 |

| carlosqueso | i_own:did you install on seperate partitions, or did you apt-get install kubuntu-desktop? | 02:07 |
| i_own_the_circle | carlosqueso, i did the apt-get install kubuntu-desktop | 02:07 |
| carlosqueso | i_own: then no, they'll both be upgraded to hardy | 02:08 |
| PMantis | carlosqueso: LOL, I'm also confused... I was SSH'd to another box. It's not 8.04 yet. Apparently, openssh-blacklist needed to be installed. | 02:08 |

| j1solutions | tds5016: I'm 3 for three on upgrades from 7.10 | 02:10 |
| PMantis | carlosqueso: So, the dist-upgrade fixed it, thank you. Sorry for being hard headed ... :dist-upgrade" just meant something different to me, and didn't seem like the "right" way to do it, but rather a hack to get around the right way. | 02:10 |

| PCDJ | lol | 02:14 |
| PMantis | carlosqueso: It was for that reason that I avoided an upgrade for a year... but had to keep my laptop safe since it has some client data on it. Now that it's installed the "Ubuntu" way, 8.10 should be an easy upgrade. | 02:14 |
| PCDJ | where do i get wine besides the package store? | 02:15 |
| kitche | tds5016: do you have the alternate cd? | 02:15 |
| xim | ah ok thx | 02:15 |

| Dr_willis | doubledew, for a linux to linux - system - NFS will be faster then using samba, or sshfs, or similer may be easier. Samba can work. If you set up sares corectly. the gnome file manager and kde file manager has samba browsing features, or you might want to check out the FuseSmb tool. | 02:41 |
| EdgEy | is there a way to boot the 8.04 installer from usb? | 02:41 |
| user__ | linxeh, when i installed 8.04, i can use all of my devices. all drivers are ok. ubuntu use same drivers on 7.10 too? | 02:41 |
| patifa | Indeed, NFS is super zippy | 02:41 |
| Dr_willis | doubledew, if ysing samba a lot - you should install the samba-doc package and read up on the included books the package has. | 02:41 |
| bryan | the printing section under administration in ubuntu hardy says it sees the printer and named it the same name as it is on the printer all automatically but it wont print | 02:41 |
| Dr_willis | doubledew, if just doing a few transfers, sshfs is very easy to get going. | 02:42 |
| PMantis | EdgEy: I've never done it, but the alternate CD can help with that. | 02:42 |
| cyris| | how do i go about getting the ssh-vulnkey tool ? | 02:42 |
| yowshi | is there a way to make mount do a disk check manually without rebooting? | 02:42 |
| PCDJ | honey i'm home | 02:42 |
| Dr_willis | cyris|, you mean http://ubuntu-tutorials.com/2008/05/13/openssh-openssh-vulnerabilities-confirm-fix-instructions/ | 02:42 |
| alterimperson | EdgEy: there is a way, but it doesn't work well quite yet. I've seen it done with 7.04 and 7.10 | 02:42 |
| PMantis | yowshi: It's not mount that does it, but fsck. do: man fsck | 02:43 |

| cmatheson | Simonft1: looks like all scanners were broken out of the box in hardy (https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/sane-backends/+bug/205496)--seems to have been fixed in the latest update to HAL (gonna reboot to check now) | 02:43 |

| doubledew | Dr_willis: so i understand how to connect to a network drive with my ubuntu desktop, but how would i do that command line from my ubuntu server? | 02:43 |
| jason_1 | it a bug in kde4 or just the way it is, i cant like 'drag' and select a bunch of desktop icons, it like just does nothing but drag a outline and release....never hilights what i drag it around...?? | 02:43 |

| yowshi | PMantis: thanks | 02:43 |
| bazhang | jason_1, best ask in #kubuntu-kde4 | 02:43 |
| litlebuda | PCDJ, try to load it now | 02:43 |
| yowshi | i hate manuals dry buggers written for people other then the layman | 02:43 |
| Dr_willis | doubledew, samba share, you can create a fstab entry for it. Or use the fusesmb tool. | 02:44 |
| PCDJ | itlebuda, it is all loaded | 02:44 |
| PCDJ | ok | 02:44 |
| PCDJ | what command? | 02:44 |
| PCDJ | itlebuda, what command? | 02:44 |
| Dr_willis | yowshi, ive noticed the more the developers dumb things down.. the dumber the common user gets.. :( | 02:44 |
| John_S | I'm trying to find info for one of the "add to panel" programs I added to my top panel--any idea where these programs are stored? | 02:44 |
| doubledew | Dr_willis: alright, i don't konw what that means so Ill read up on it, i was just thinking there'd be a quick way sort of like mounting a drive | 02:44 |
| litlebuda | PCDJ, to do what ? | 02:45 |
| PCDJ | itlebuda, load sdclone | 02:45 |
| astro76 | ls -lh /etc/ssh/ | 02:45 |
| Dr_willis | doubledew, its exactly the same as mounting a drive. :) you just use a different filesystem/options | 02:45 |
| litlebuda | PCDJ, did you install it ? | 02:45 |
| yowshi | Dr_willis: ummm i'm the common user and i DONT know the techno jargon and whats wrong with the average layman using linux or any OS without knowing what an iso9000 is | 02:45 |
| jason_1 | j | 02:45 |
| PCDJ | itlebuda, sdclone no but the 2 you told me to yes | 02:45 |
| sarthor | Hi, how can i install gyachi messenger to my hardy (AMD) | 02:46 |
| Dr_willis | yowshi, ive also noticed that (at least in here) a totally beginner user, will want to try to do some really weird things that they wouldent even attempt in windows. :) but computers are tools.. and it takes skills to learn to use tools. | 02:46 |
| yowshi | Dr_willis: i aint dumb just uneducated in the techno jargon and wording used in the linux man pages and i am VERY insulted that you think just cause i dont know those terms that i am some drooling moron | 02:46 |
| PCDJ | litlebuda, sdclone no but the 2 you told me to yes | 02:46 |
| litlebuda | PCDJ, then in synaptic install perl and phyton | 02:46 |
| PCDJ | litlebuda, ok | 02:47 |
| Dr_willis | yowshi, you are entirely too sensitive and i dident mean you specifically. So i guess i will leave you to be overley sensitive. Good luck. | 02:47 |

| acp_ | Hi I plan to install gyachi_1.1.0-1_i386_gutsy.deb in hardy do you thing this would work properly?, I know its better to install from source but that would be my last option | 02:48 |
| Dr_willis | yowshi, Yep. with linux it pays to learn the Fundamentals./ This is why i reccoend these books to people who ask, that have a lot of 'text' and not a lot of pictures about how to use gnome and kde. Books/Info on the shell and the core of the OS are worth reading to learn the fundamentals. Linux is all about layers. It pays to learn how the layers work. | 02:49 |

| Scunizi | lkthomas: jsp? java script? sometimes.. slower than xhtml? maybe | 03:39 |
| bazhang | jason_1, sounds like you removed some mounted usb or other unsafely | 03:39 |
| bazhang | pen hang on a sec | 03:39 |
| lkthomas | hmm | 03:39 |
| WindowSmasher | Anyone? | 03:40 |
| jason_1 | bazhang, i own no such hot removable devices. | 03:40 |
| bazhang | jason_1, you want to pass blame or fix the issue? | 03:40 |
| Derander | has anyone had this problem with flashplugin-nonfree: I go to a site such as youtube, video starts playing and stops after two seconds. Will not start again. This behavior is exhibited with all flash. | 03:40 |
| Scunizi | pen: ask bazhang if "xrandr -s 1280x1024" (or whatever resolution you need) will work | 03:40 |
| gregbrady | I have a problem booting my computer. I boot the first time and it says that my hard drive is FAT formatted and to try again. I press ctl-alt-del and it boots just fine! Anything I can do about this? | 03:41 |
| pen | Scunizi, it doesn't work me it says can't find the resolution mode | 03:41 |
| bazhang | pen you may have found someone who knows something --->points to S-cunizi | 03:41 |
| Wolvenhaven | is easycrypt broken in 8.04 or is it just me? | 03:41 |
| pen | bazhang, ok | 03:41 |
| jake2point0 | how do i reinstall my sound card drivers in ubuntu | 03:42 |
| victamower | I have a laptop with an ATI mobility X1400, how painful is it to get Desktop Effects with Hardy? | 03:42 |
| victamower | I've only booted the live CD, which wouldn't let me enable them | 03:42 |
| Wolvenhaven | like 4 button clicks victamower | 03:42 |
| Scunizi | bazhang: pen .. well.. just my latest experience.. I had another HD so decided to install Hardy fresh.. rez. was all screwy. Someone suggested xrandr -s (resolution) however after enabling the restricted drivers it wasn't neccessary.. just my 2 cents worth. | 03:42 |
| jason_1 | bazhang, i think i got it, dunno where it's reading the script to move these files over, so i just quick made the directories and touched the file it wanted | 03:43 |
| jason_1 | going to delete them and see if it still complains | 03:43 |
| pen | Scunizi, do you know anything about initramfs? | 03:43 |
| bazhang | jason_1, we try to help folks in here; getting upset when something is not fixed right away wont make it happen faster; *you* chose to remove the kde, so blaming others will not resolve or make others more likely to want to help you | 03:43 |
| Scunizi | pen: no.. sorry | 03:43 |
| Wolvenhaven | victamower: enable restricted drivers, reboot, install desktop effects, then turn on the effects you want | 03:43 |
| pen | Scunizi, ok | 03:43 |
| pen | Scunizi, thx for the suggestion anyways | 03:43 |
| jake2point0 | how do i reinstall my sound card drivers . is there something like to reconfigure it? | 03:43 |
| degrit | I have a mouse with 5 buttons + wheel (the wheel is the middle button too), but only 2 buttons + wheel as wheel are working and there's no relevant options in Preferences - any clues ? | 03:43 |
| victamower | Wolven: the ATI drivers are using AIGLX instead of xgl now right? | 03:44 |
| pen | bazhang, so I'm back to you...:) | 03:44 |
| Scunizi | pen: np.. without xorg being implemented.. it's very different for most of us. | 03:44 |
| jason_1 | it was supposed to be a joke? sense of humor a bit low? apologize if you found it offensive. | 03:44 |
| Jordan_U | victamower, Yes | 03:44 |
| pen | Scunizi, ok | 03:44 |
| jason_1 | i* | 03:44 |
| Wolvenhaven | victamower: yes | 03:44 |
| bazhang | jason_1, you were just kidding then? ah okay | 03:44 |
| dben1 | can i get some help mounting an lvm volume? vgscan wont detect it | 03:44 |
| victamower | I've had problems with video playback with AIGLX in the past | 03:44 |
| Wolvenhaven | degrit: what mouse is it? my 5 button is working fine | 03:44 |
| degrit | Logitech MX310 | 03:45 |
| jason_1 | lol, why would i blame you for something someone else wrote? | 03:45 |
| raistlinmaje7 | can I ask for egrep help here? | 03:45 |
| bazhang | jason_1, okay-->never know in here :) | 03:45 |
| gregbrady | Ok, I assume that nobody else has that same problem as mine at the moment. I'll try again at a later date. | 03:45 |
| degrit | actually it has an additional button on the top which in windows operates like alt+tab | 03:45 |
| jason_1 | well, honestly, it was aj oke. | 03:45 |
| Wolvenhaven | degrit: lol thats the mouse i have, weird that its not working | 03:45 |
| chris_420 | yooo i have a question... ok i have a system monitor screenlet based on conky running on my desktop and it seems every time the cpu usage changes it makes a clicking noise out the speakers... | 03:45 |
| thechris | bazhang: so, unetbootin does? it seems to be a shell script that doens't do anything. | 03:46 |
| degrit | I am using feisty if that helps | 03:46 |
| jason_1 | bazhang, ubt i think i got it, just faked some directories and the file it was in search for. | 03:46 |
| bazhang | thechris, what distro you got? | 03:46 |
| Wolvenhaven | that extra button pisses me off, i hit it while switching sensitivity and it dumps me out of games, i dont know though, cause mine is working | 03:46 |
| degrit | no I mean gutsy | 03:46 |
| bazhang | jason_1, nicely done | 03:46 |
| raistlinmaje7 | christel: by screenlet do you mean applet? | 03:46 |
| Wolvenhaven | wait, do you have 7.10 or 8.04? | 03:46 |
| thechris | bazhang: i'm attempting to use it to install xubuntu. | 03:46 |
| degrit | 7.10 is gutsy right ? how do I make sure ? | 03:47 |
| bazhang | thechris, from what other linux distro if I may ask | 03:47 |
| bazhang | lsb_release -a degrit | 03:47 |
| thechris | bazhang: gentoo | 03:47 |
| chris_420 | raist i guess you can call it that.... im running screenlet manager it allows you to grab the ones off like gnome-look.org and put them to use | 03:47 |
| Wolvenhaven | gusty is 7.10, yea the buttons dont work in 7.10, they work in 8.04 though | 03:47 |
| chris_420 | but yeah i guess you could say that raistlinmaje7 | 03:47 |
| degrit | yup it's 7.10 all right | 03:47 |
| melter | is there a way to narrow down all the dependencies that are installed with a package? | 03:48 |
| bazhang | thechris, then the .sh file I guess | 03:48 |
| degrit | I remember I'd managed to make it work in 7.04 though P: | 03:48 |
| Wolvenhaven | yea, sorry about that, it didnt work for me in 7.10, but they work in 8.04 | 03:48 |
| Jordan_U | melter, apt-cache show <package> | 03:48 |
| raistlinmaje7 | huh, that's odd, it doesn't happen for me | 03:48 |
| Baatti | someone please help me, I'm really upset... I just downloaded and burned the Ubuntu 8.04 .ISO...I'm trying to install it inside windows...it goes through the checksums and then starts creating an image, it gets to about 711MB out of 733MB or something, then it stops and says "Cannot access CD, it may be being used by another program." Which as far as I know, it ain't! Any ideas? | 03:48 |
| chris_420 | ive also recently got my desktop cube through fusion going as well lol so the spu is pretty active in comparison to earlier today haha | 03:48 |
| degrit | is there any cons in pressing that "Update Release" button in my update manager ? | 03:48 |
| raistlinmaje7 | does the problem go away when you disable the monitor? | 03:48 |
| Wolvenhaven | baatii which vm are you using? | 03:49 |
| thechris | bazhang: but what does it do? it seems to want only the mode of install, and not an iso file or such | 03:49 |
| raistlinmaje7 | degrit: no | 03:49 |
| chris_420 | CPU* | 03:49 |
| raistlinmaje7 | not that I know of | 03:49 |
| Baatti | also, I can't get it to load as a live CD...it get's to about 3% of the kernel, then it says, Cannot access Boot disc | 03:49 |
| Kohlrak | thechris, i don't think he's using one | 03:49 |
| degrit | I mean, does any app stop working or something like that usually | 03:49 |
| chris_420 | let me check | 03:49 |
| bazhang | thechris, it dl's from the net the rest | 03:49 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Baatti Check the wubi site for help with that. | 03:49 |
| chris_420 | nope | 03:49 |
| Wolvenhaven | baatii: what speed did you burn it at? | 03:49 |
| chris_420 | still got it hahaaaa | 03:49 |
| Baatti | Wolvenhaven: none, it says I didn't need to partition or anything | 03:49 |
| Kohlrak | baatti, try "check cd for errors" when trying to boot from it | 03:49 |
| chris_420 | let me see what happens if i play a song | 03:49 |
| raistlinmaje7 | degrit: I mean its a crap-shoot, usually nothing gets too broken | 03:50 |
| Baatti | Wolvenhaven: using InfraRecorder, at Maximum speed | 03:50 |
| degrit | :) | 03:50 |
| Baatti | Kohlrak: how do I check a CD for errors? | 03:50 |
| Wolvenhaven | it could be broken then | 03:50 |
| soldats | Baatti: you should burn at the lowest speed | 03:50 |
| Wolvenhaven | try reburning at 4x | 03:50 |
| Baatti | ok, I'll try that | 03:50 |
| Kohlrak | Menu item, Baatti | 03:50 |
| bazhang | Baatti, the cd integrity check | 03:50 |
| thechris | bazhang: hmm, it that case it doesn't seem to work. i guess it fails silently | 03:50 |
| cylux | Baatti: You can check if the .iso is corrupt. Did you check the md5sum ? | 03:50 |
| raistlinmaje7 | I always burn a live CD just to make sure it boots properly and what not, but that's just me | 03:50 |
| chris_420 | holy hairballs you can hear it over the music .... | 03:50 |
| soldats | Baatti: also i think you meant the cd wouldnt boot but you can check it by running as a livecd and click the check cd for errors button | 03:51 |
| thechris | i wish you could still copy the livecd to a partition and install like back in 6.06 | 03:51 |
| thechris | but thats been broke for a while. | 03:51 |
| cylux | thechris: You still can. | 03:51 |
| Wolvenhaven | ok guys i feel stupid, where did the partition editor run off to, its not in system-admin anymore | 03:51 |
| Baatti | ok, let me try reburning it at a slower speed, then I'll check for errors at reboot | 03:51 |
| bazhang | thechris, one user here does that with gutsy | 03:51 |
| Baatti | thanks guys | 03:51 |
| Baatti | I'll probably be back soon | 03:51 |
| chris_420 | yay for squash tools | 03:51 |
| Baatti | peace | 03:51 |
| degrit | Wolvenhaven, so in 8.04 that mouse just works, no workarounds needed ? | 03:51 |
| melter | Jordan_U, are none of the dependencies optional, for example, if i install imagemagick to manipulate postscript and png images only, i still need to install x11 libs? | 03:51 |
| soldats | Baatti: good luck | 03:51 |
| Baatti | thanks | 03:51 |
| raistlinmaje7 | chris_420: are you sure its the system monitor? | 03:51 |
| Wolvenhaven | yes degrit | 03:51 |
| degrit | yay | 03:51 |
| degrit | well, I'm off to try | 03:51 |
| chris_420 | yeah im thinking not so much now lol... | 03:51 |
| raistlinmaje7 | good luck degrit | 03:51 |
| Wolvenhaven | 8.04 is kinda buggy though | 03:51 |
| thechris | cylux: gusty didn't work that way with amd64. current just doesn't work (no /dev/ram) | 03:52 |
| degrit | I hope it doesn't mess up compiz and eve online which I just managed to set up right | 03:52 |
| Wolvenhaven | hehe | 03:52 |
| raistlinmaje7 | is anyone here a regex wizard? | 03:52 |
| cylux | thechris: That can be remedied. | 03:52 |
| JustAFigment | Strange problem: network drop (from rebooting router, unplug/plug cable, etc...) causes ANY action that requires elevated privileges to hang such as SUDO, SHUTDOWN, viewing network applet, etc. Using HARDY | 03:52 |
| IndyGunFreak | hardy isn't that bad, but i'm a bit disappointed w/ the few bugs it has. | 03:52 |
| degrit | thx for the help | 03:52 |
| Wolvenhaven | i really like it | 03:52 |
| Wolvenhaven | its just i want wireshark and easycrypt to work | 03:52 |
| Jordan_U | Wolvenhaven, Applications -> System Tools | 03:53 |
| IndyGunFreak | yeah, and I want FF3 to not be a pain in the ass | 03:53 |
| === Jaie__ is now known as Jaie | ||
| qman__ | hey guys | 03:53 |
| Kohlrak | FF3 hasn't given me any troubles | 03:53 |
| Jack_Sparrow | IndyGunFreak Watch the language | 03:53 |
| IndyGunFreak | lol | 03:53 |
| qman__ | I upgraded from 7.10 to 8.04, and now I can't burn audio CDs from flac files | 03:53 |
| thechris | cylux: how? there seems to be no solutions posted online | 03:53 |
| Wolvenhaven | oh shit, i just accidentally removed applications from te panel | 03:53 |
| Kohlrak | i've had more trouble with an interface item with ff3, but it's a problem wit hardy not ff3 | 03:53 |
| qman__ | I tried serpentine and brasero, both fail to convert the audio | 03:53 |
| chris_420 | raist ummm i do have the volume on the volume applet turned all the way up... i shouldn't still be able to hear it should i? | 03:53 |
| cylux | thechris: SOmething involving symbolic links, i'm sure. | 03:54 |
| raistlinmaje7 | chris_420: it being? | 03:54 |
| bazhang | qman__, what about gnomebaker | 03:54 |
| Baatti | hey again..another question...which write method should I use? Session-At-Once? | 03:54 |
| qman__ | I don't have gnomebaker installed, but serpentine worked before the upgrade | 03:54 |
| Scunizi | pen: did you try xrandr -s <screen resolution> ? | 03:54 |
| chris_420 | the click from what appears to be cpu action.... | 03:54 |
| pen | Scunizi, I did | 03:54 |
| thechris | cylux: and then how do you continue install? | 03:54 |
| Scunizi | pen and did it do anything? | 03:54 |
| thechris | cylux: because it waits about 5 minutes then drops you to a shell... | 03:55 |
| raistlinmaje7 | chris_420: have you tried disabling it? | 03:55 |
| pen | Scunizi, it says can't find the resolution | 03:55 |
| sn00zer | gnome crashes on me during startup, how do i fix it? | 03:55 |
| soldats | Baatti: write the cd as a RAW/DAO and at the lowest speed as a single session i believe | 03:55 |
| Wolvenhaven | guys, i just removed apps, places, and system from my panel by accident, how do i fix it? | 03:55 |
| Scunizi | pen: what resoltion were you plugging in? | 03:55 |
| chris_420 | hmmm ... whats it? the applet is close as well as the other applet i had and the manager its self... | 03:55 |
| bazhang | !resetpanels | Wolvenhaven | 03:55 |
| ubottu | Wolvenhaven: To reset the panel to defaults, type this in a !terminal: « gconftool --recursive-unset /apps/panel && killall gnome-panel » | 03:55 |
| Jack_Sparrow | sn00zer Start by explaining what changes you have made, unsupported repos you may have added etc. | 03:55 |
| JustAFigment | can anyone help with a network restart hanging all authentication actions until hard reboot? | 03:55 |
| cylux | thechris: I haven't done it in a while, but I know it can be done. | 03:55 |
| pen | Scunizi, 1200x800 | 03:56 |
| cylux | And to say there is no answer online is a bit presumptious. | 03:56 |
| Scunizi | pen and what rez do you think you're at now? | 03:56 |
| Wolvenhaven | lol, how do i get to terminal without the menu bar? | 03:56 |
| pen | Scunizi, 800x600 | 03:56 |
| sn00zer | Jack_Sparrow: i changed the monitor, i tried reconfiguring with dpkg but that didn't fix it | 03:56 |
| Baatti | I have the following options: SAO, TAO, TAO with no pregap, raw96r and raw16 | 03:56 |
| bazhang | alt f2 gnome-terminal Wolvenhaven | 03:56 |
| Nalidixic | Does anyone know where on the web I can find a tutorial that takes a real life programming project from start to finish that you can follow along with? Preferably a linux project? | 03:56 |
| cappicard | hrmm.. i can't build the qc-usb driver... I keep getting /usr/src/modules/qc-usb-source/qc-driver.c:3009: error: unknown field ‘hardware’ specified in initializer | 03:56 |
| raistlinmaje7 | Wolvenhaven: alt-f2 <terminal-of your-choice> | 03:56 |
| cylux | I'm off for now. | 03:56 |
| cappicard | this is 64-bit 2.6.25.3 | 03:56 |
| cylux | Be seeing you | 03:56 |
| Jack_Sparrow | sn00zer That was after the problem... what about before. | 03:57 |
| thechris | cylux: hmm, i guess. if it always screws up the same way and actually does make a valid /dev/ramXX entry, i guess i could change the kernel line to point to that | 03:57 |
| Scunizi | pen, type xrandr -q and it will give you the different resolutions that it thinks it can reproduce using the current setup. | 03:57 |
| stunatra | Where's the directory for Window decorations located? | 03:57 |
| sn00zer | Jack_Sparrow: it worked fine until I changed monitors | 03:57 |
| raistlinmaje7 | chris_420: if the manager is closed, and the applet closed, then your problem is probably not with the applet | 03:57 |
| pen | Scunizi, there are only two | 03:57 |
| thechris | all the ramXX entries were small, but i guess thats just the files in /dev/ and not the actual size. | 03:57 |
| Scunizi | pen: what are they? | 03:57 |
| pen | Scunizi, 800x600, 640x480 | 03:57 |
| chris_420 | interesting..... raistlinmaje7: i disabled the custom special effects under appearnce and it seems to have gone away... | 03:57 |
| Jack_Sparrow | snowolf k.. sounds like a manual gksudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf | 03:57 |
| Scunizi | pen.. arg.. have you enabled the restricted drivers for your vid card? and what kind of card do you have? | 03:58 |
| pen | Scunizi, nvidia | 03:58 |
| Jack_Sparrow | sn00zer gotta run... good luck with that. | 03:58 |
| pen | Scunizi, I did enable the driver | 03:58 |
| Wolvenhaven | bazhang: it didnt work, it reloaded the panels, it didnt reload the menu stuff | 03:58 |
| pen | Scunizi, I thought you know the situation | 03:58 |
| raistlinmaje7 | chris_420: I dunno what to tell you, maybe someone else can help | 03:58 |
| Baatti | soldats: I have the following options: SAO, TAO, TAO with no pregap, raw96r and raw16 | 03:58 |
| Scunizi | pen, no.. sorry.. came into it late. | 03:58 |
| pen | Scunizi, it's something about initramfs | 03:58 |
| chris_420 | aight well now.... wait a little while till i can get a little better PC before i mess with desktop cubing again i guess | 03:58 |
| bazhang | Wolvenhaven, add them back right click add to panel | 03:58 |
| pen | Scunizi, I suspect it messed up my xorg and nvidia | 03:59 |
| chris_420 | haha i can live with that... | 03:59 |
| pen | Scunizi, I ran this sudo dpkg-reconfigure cnosole-setup | 03:59 |
| pen | console-setup | 03:59 |
| hroi | hello | 03:59 |
| pen | Scunizi, then after reboot xorg can't start | 03:59 |
| qman__ | gnomebaker can't burn either, fails with error: Could not decode stream.gstflacdec.c(800): gst_flac_dec_error_callback (): /gnomebaker-convert-to-wav-pipeline/decoder/flacdec11: | 03:59 |
| qman__ | bad header (1) | 03:59 |
| soldats | Baatti: i think you need the raw16 most likely not to sure though. what app are you using | 03:59 |
| pen | Scunizi, it falls back to failsafe mdoe | 04:00 |
| Baatti | soldats: InfraRecorder | 04:00 |
| pen | Scunizi, thats why I'm in 800x600 | 04:00 |
| Scunizi | pen, xorg doesn't have much to do with the video in hardy.. have you tried disabling the restricted driver.. rebooting .. then re-enabling? | 04:00 |
| chris_420 | okay im outty... ty raistlinmaje7 you have a good night/day | 04:00 |
| chris_420 | ttyl | 04:00 |

| hroi | where is the alsaconfig? | 04:00 |
| pen | Scunizi, no, but do you think this will solve it? | 04:00 |
| hroi | so strange | 04:00 |
| pen | Scunizi, it was working before until that console-setup | 04:00 |
| raistlinmaje7 | hroi: the command-line version? | 04:00 |
| Scunizi | pen.. I'm just looking for different options | 04:00 |
| bazhang | hardy hroi ? what about sound prefs | 04:00 |
| pen | Scunizi, and console-setup only changes the fonts used in console | 04:01 |
| pen | Scunizi, it did changes initramfs | 04:01 |
| JustAFigment | hroi: are you looking for asoundconf | 04:01 |
| hroi | yup, the command line alsaconfig ncurses one | 04:01 |
| Scunizi | pen, I think there's another tool.. hang on I'm looking. | 04:01 |
| soldats | Baatti: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BurningIsoHowto this should have the correct method. it sounded like you did it fine but this gives you examples to check it for errors | 04:01 |

| grimlock838 | Wired Network connection and mouse wont work in normal starup | 04:01 |

| raistlinmaje7 | damnit, I'm trying to use egrep | 04:02 |
| grimlock838 | What install log do I need to look at to narrow down whatever did this? | 04:02 |
| hroi | JustAFigment, why they have to mess up a perfectly good alsa distro | 04:02 |
| nickellery | what file format are themes for ubuntu? | 04:02 |
| === phenom_ is now known as phenom|zZz | ||
| hroi | I mean mess around with what is the norm for so long | 04:02 |
| raistlinmaje7 | but whenever I enclose a regular expression in parantheses bash complains at me, any idea what's wrong? | 04:03 |
| Scunizi | pen, displayconfig-gtk might give you something if you haven't tried it yet. | 04:03 |
| pen | Scunizi, what is that? | 04:03 |
| rhizmoe | raistlinmaje7: are you using single quotes? | 04:03 |
| JustAFigment | hroi: I have never used either. I just ran apropos alsa to find something related | 04:03 |
| Scunizi | pen, it has to do with Ubuntu's Bullet Proof X.. failsafe system.. it should pull a gui settings menu up. | 04:03 |
| raistlinmaje7 | I need to enclose it in quotation marks? | 04:03 |
| pen | Scunizi, I have that installed already | 04:04 |
| * raistlinmaje7 feels really stupid now | 04:04 | |
| rhizmoe | i do, with grep -e | 04:04 |
| soldats | raistlinmaje7: what is the regex your trying | 04:04 |
| Scunizi | pen: and you ran it? | 04:04 |
| raistlinmaje7 | (^ii)[:space;]{2} | 04:04 |
| pen | Scunizi, same thing | 04:04 |
| grimlock838 | I dont understand what happend or how to fix it | 04:04 |
| raistlinmaje7 | that should be a ":" not a ";" | 04:04 |
| pen | Scunizi, I can't choose resolution beyond 800x600 | 04:04 |
| astro76 | dmsuperman: it should be identical... if you want to be sure you see any cool new desktop stuff, create a new user after you upgrade | 04:04 |
| Scunizi | pen: ah.. was this an upgrade or fresh install? | 04:05 |
| Yatas | hey guys | 04:05 |
| hroi | ubuntu, is starting to seem like an unusual linux, if they didnt go with the complete alsapackage, they must have trimmed out the alsaconf | 04:05 |
| astro76 | dmsuperman: probably not necessary though | 04:05 |
| evilbug | how can i stop the login sound? | 04:05 |
| Nikunj93 | dragging the mouse along wiht ctrl and alt doesnt move the cube | 04:05 |
| pen | Scunizi, upgrade from fresh 7.1 | 04:05 |
| grimlock838 | I mean I guess it could be that i installed the HP devvice mamanger for my photsmart printer | 04:05 |
| JustAFigment | hroi: asoundconf did not help? I am not really familar with it | 04:05 |
| raistlinmaje7 | evilbug: all of them? or the login prompt? | 04:05 |
| astro76 | hroi: well, starting with hardy, ubuntu is changing to pulseaudio, so that might have something to do with it | 04:05 |
| Yatas | when i try to log on my yahoo with pidgin it says invalid screename ? but i have checked and everything is allright ?? | 04:06 |
| Yatas | why ? | 04:06 |
| Rikard | How do I set a program (In this case, Pidgin) to start up when Ubuntu boots? | 04:06 |
| evilbug | raistlinmaje7- just the login prompt for now. | 04:06 |
| IndyGunFreak | evilbug: system/pref/sounds/sounds tab.. should be self explanatory from there | 04:06 |
| grimlock838 | But HOw do i uninstall this damned hp device manager? | 04:06 |
| pen | Scunizi, hm. displayconfig-gtk restart x | 04:06 |
| ghosTM55 | Rikard: if u use gnome , in the "preference -> session" | 04:06 |
| astro76 | !startup | Rikard | 04:06 |
| ubottu | Rikard: To add programs to start up when you log into your Gnome session go to System>Preferences>Sessions and use the Startup Programs tab. For more information, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AddingProgramToSessionStartup - See !boot for starting non-interactive programs at boot | 04:06 |
| Rikard | Thanks | 04:06 |
| Scunizi | pen: I still have issues on my production machine (this one) .. it's an upgrade and won't shutdown properly.. I have to hit the button. so I did a fresh install and WAM fixed.. If you have a separate /home partition you might consider 40 minutes to reinstall vs. days trying to figure out the solution. | 04:06 |
| hroi | JustAFigment, thanks, looks like asoundconf might get me somewhere, but Im a bit boggled by this... I have alsa installed but very very unusual | 04:06 |
| pen | Scunizi, when I press the test button | 04:06 |
| pen | Scunizi, but it still doesn't work | 04:06 |
| ghosTM55 | Rikard: u'r welcome | 04:06 |
| pen | Scunizi, maybe | 04:07 |
| raistlinmaje7 | evilbug: System->Administration -> Login Window -> Accessibility | 04:07 |
| raistlinmaje7 | you should see the checkmark there | 04:07 |
| pen | Scunizi, I'm only worried about the settings and the programs I install | 04:07 |
| pen | Scunizi, how do I move everything I need working to the new instalaltion? | 04:07 |
| Rikard | Thanks guys. | 04:07 |
| Yatas | my pidgin keeps giving me errors ? it says that my yahoo account is invalid ? | 04:07 |
| rhizmoe | raistlinmaje7: the shell is going to parse the args before they get to egrep, so you have to use single quotes to prevent that. | 04:07 |
| pen | Scunizi, or do you mean I have to do everything again? | 04:07 |
| IndyGunFreak | raistlinmaje7: i thought he wanted to change the log in tune.. the africans humming | 04:07 |
| JustAFigment | hroi: glad i MIGHT have been some help :-) | 04:07 |
| pen | Scunizi, omg | 04:07 |
| evilbug | IndyGunFreak, raistlinmaje7- thanks. | 04:07 |
| raistlinmaje7 | rhizmoe: single? not double? | 04:08 |
| grimlock838 | How do I uninstalll HP device manager for my HP printer? | 04:08 |
| Ashfire908 | I get this error/warning during startup on my system (it's non-fatal, it contiunes to boot) "piix4_smbus 0000:00:f.0: SMB base address uninitialized - upgrade BIOS or use force_addr=0xaddr" | 04:08 |
| Scunizi | pen.. if you have a separate /home partition all you have to do is name it as the /home for the new install BUT DON'T FORMAT IT.. and it'll all be there. Couple of things you might have to reinstall but the configuration will remain as before and data too. | 04:08 |
| pen | Scunizi, ok, I mean config in system folders | 04:08 |
| pen | Scunizi, I know all the settings would be in home | 04:09 |
| Yatas | my pidgin messenger keeps given me errors ? | 04:09 |
| Yatas | can anyone help ? | 04:09 |
| Scunizi | pen.. can you be more specific about configurations in system folders? | 04:09 |
| grimlock838 | How do I uninstall HP printerdevice manager | 04:09 |
| rhizmoe | raistlinmaje7: single, yeah. doubles will still get parsed. | 04:09 |

| arbir | hello | 04:09 |

| cappicard | damn... anyone use a quickcam web under 2.6.25? | 04:10 |
| eboyjr | I switched to my second workspace called "Special" with no programs in that workspace and left for a minute... When I came back, It logged me out. (I had to log in again)... I also have a message saying "System restart required", but that shouldnt log me out like that. | 04:10 |
| qman__ | ok, my burning problem is getting weirder by the minute | 04:10 |
| arbir | Listen media player wont show my ipod | 04:10 |
| pen | Scunizi, besides that there are menu icons the custom icons too.... | 04:10 |
| pen | Scunizi, this will be my nightmare | 04:10 |
| qman__ | I copied the files to the local drive to eliminate the nfs share as a problem | 04:10 |
| Scunizi | pen: shouldn't effect grub, firefox stuff is actually in /home in a hidden directory, same with swiftweasel. and nvidia you're trying to fix. | 04:10 |
| raistlinmaje7 | okay, well, I want to match the beginning of a line, two i's, two spaces, and then anything that's not a space | 04:10 |
| qman__ | still didn't work | 04:10 |
| gleyve | My gaim is not starting...segmentation error (core dumped) | 04:10 |
| qman__ | tried them in gnomebaker, still didn't work | 04:10 |
| pen | Scunizi, no, about the compiz shadow bug | 04:10 |
| eboyjr | Use pidgin instead of gaim | 04:10 |
| qman__ | I moved the first track to the bottom of the list, and it worked | 04:10 |
| pen | Scunizi, that's something diff | 04:10 |
| raistlinmaje7 | cappicard: have you tried cheese? | 04:10 |
| Scunizi | pen: don't know what that is. | 04:10 |
| qman__ | so then I moved the first track back to the top of the list, and it worked again | 04:10 |
| Yatas | how do i upgrade my pidgin ? | 04:11 |
| arbir | eboyjr: hi.. do you use Listen Media player ? | 04:11 |
| pen | Scunizi, and the firefox and swiftweaswel is not about /home is about the flash link | 04:11 |
| loga1 | hi | 04:11 |
| Yatas | why does it keep givien me errors ? | 04:11 |
| qman__ | I'm really confused as to why it's working now and wasn't before | 04:11 |

| Yatas | how do i get the latest version of pidgin ? | 04:17 |
| Kohlrak | JustAFragment, internet on linux, windows, and other x86 computers use "sockets." A socket has to be "bound" to an "ip address." Basically, what it tries to be. If you change the IPs of the outside or things inside the network, it continues to try to be the same IP address, even when it should be something else. You may not need to reboot the computer, but just the programs | 04:17 |
| rhizmoe | raistlinmaje7: oops, try putting an asterisk after, like [^ ]* | 04:17 |

I did screw when I compiled ztdummy and may have recompiled other things in the process. Is there a make world or rebuild everything that I can do? | 04:29 |
| grimlock838 | I know how it feesl | 04:29 |
| raistlinmaje7 | Yatas: do you need a proxy? | 04:29 |
| CLEARviewF | raistlinmaje7: it doesn't work, so, it is not X | 04:30 |
| CLEARviewF | raistlinmaje7: i think it is Compiz | 04:30 |
| Yatas | raistlinmaje7 | 04:30 |
| Yatas | not really | 04:30 |
| raistlinmaje7 | could be, try going back to metacity and see if the problem still persists | 04:30 |
| Yatas | but i need ur help ? | 04:30 |
| Kohlrak | JustAFigment, if you want to destroy all, you can reformat. If you want to just recompile, just do that and overwrite. Chances are, if they do nothign for a while then magically start doing something, they might not know what they're doing. | 04:30 |
| Kohlrak | 'could be a new development team | 04:31 |
| raistlinmaje7 | what's your current version of pidgin? | 04:31 |
| JustAFigment | kohlrak: can you point me to a guide to recompile and overwrite? The Ubuntu team discourages this greatly and the info is hard to find. | 04:31 |
| grimlock838 | Dose is it working? | 04:31 |
| Yatas | raist , its 2.2.1 | 04:32 |
| neunon | Hi folks. I've been having a very annoying problem on one of my machines. If I hold down a key (an arrow key, for instance), I can't move my USB mouse (internal touchpad isn't affected) until a second after the key I am holding is released. Ideas? :\ | 04:32 |
| grimlock838 | Did you recently install somehting from outside of synaptic? | 04:32 |
| grimlock838 | neuon | 04:32 |
| raistlinmaje7 | okay, that's what I have, describe your problem and the type of network you're on | 04:32 |
| neunon | grimlock838, Nope, and this problem has occurred across two installs on the same machine. The other machine I have running Ubuntu isn't affected. | 04:33 |
| doseryder | grimlock838 as corny/noobie as it sounds, i'm actually making notes right now. I like to document these things | 04:33 |
| Kohlrak | well, if you compiled it in the first place, just compile it again, and that's recompiling. I don't know exactly what you're doing, but over writing is as simple as copying new files to the same place as old files, which would cause one to have to get rid of the other, usually the older one goes. | 04:33 |
| Yatas | when i try to long on yahoo , it says invalid screenname ? | 04:33 |
| neunon | grimlock838, I thought it might be a problem with APIC, but doing 'noapic' on the kernel parameter list doesn't help anything. | 04:33 |
| Yatas | my msn works fine on pidgin | 04:33 |
| neunon | grimlock838, Even stranger yet, the LiveCD doesn't behave this way. | 04:34 |
| JustAFigment | kohlrak: I wish to rebuild the kernel, modules and all dependencies not just the last package. | 04:34 |
| grimlock838 | thats weird | 04:34 |
| raistlinmaje7 | Yatas: did you muck around in the advanced tab when you created your account? | 04:34 |
| neunon | grimlock838, Tell me about it. Tried an ubuntu forum post too, and nobody could help. | 04:34 |
| Yatas | no | 04:34 |
| Yatas | i never did | 04:34 |
| grimlock838 | is one a desktop and the other (problem one) is a laptop | 04:34 |
| Yatas | what are ur settings ? | 04:35 |
| Kohlrak | JustAFigment, you my as well reformat at that point then =p | 04:35 |
| Yatas | yahoo Options | 04:35 |
| raistlinmaje7 | I don't use yahoo, so I don't have any | 04:35 |
| neunon | grimlock838, Both are laptops. One's a MacBook Pro (the one with the issue), and the other is a Sony Vaio. | 04:35 |
| raistlinmaje7 | someone else here might | 04:35 |
| Yatas | raist | 04:35 |
| Yatas | it doesn't mater | 04:35 |
| sortudo_78 | I got an Ip address, domain and DNS configuration, but could not ping my gateway, IT says Destination Host Ubrreachable, Ehat could be wrong ? | 04:35 |
| Yatas | the ports and everything are set | 04:35 |
| Yatas | in ur pidgin | 04:35 |
| Yatas | so just tell me what they are | 04:36 |
| Zaiden | How do I install 32 bit binaries? | 04:36 |
| JustAFigment | kohlrak: I have considered that, if possible though I need to rebuild the kernel so that I can tweak some settings to boost performance of asterisk. | 04:36 |
| raistlinmaje7 | there are different advanced settings for different protocols | 04:36 |
| Kohlrak | JustAFigment, then just deletion the ubuntu partition and rebuild on windows =p | 04:36 |
| Kohlrak | Zaiden, why? | 04:36 |
| kittykitty | I am having difficulties with a tf card, when i delete files from it, the space isn't freed and now its "full" (1gb) with only 165 mb of files on it.... | 04:36 |
| raistlinmaje7 | however, you can try, under Proxy Options, to set it to Use Gnome Proxy settings | 04:36 |
| JustAFigment | LOL, thanks for your help | 04:37 |
| Nostahl | where do i find rc.local so i can add something to start on bootup? | 04:37 |
| kittykitty | i've tried fsck on it, and it doesn't report any errors | 04:37 |
| Kohlrak | tf card? | 04:37 |
| astro76 | Nostahl: locate rc.local | 04:37 |
| ravi_master | hey, looking for a live screencasting tool for ubuntu | 04:37 |
| Yatas | the settings is at use gnome proxy | 04:37 |
| neunon | grimlock838, any suggestions? :| | 04:37 |
| grimlock838 | I am thinking | 04:37 |
| neunon | grimlock838, Okay. | 04:37 |
| kittykitty | its a mini shdc thing | 04:37 |
| JustAFigment | one last question for all. Is there a major difference between the server and desktop versions of ubuntu, from a daily users point of view? | 04:38 |
| Yatas | raist , what is ur "port" for yahoo / at advanced | 04:38 |
| Zaiden | Kohlrak: I was told to install them if I'm running the 64 bit version of second life | 04:38 |
| grimlock838 | is it just have ubuntu or is it a dual boot | 04:38 |
| astro76 | JustAFigment: server has no gui | 04:38 |
| Kohlrak | kittykitty, try unmounting it then remounting it | 04:38 |
| kittykitty | i did | 04:38 |
| neunon | grimlock838, Dual boot with OS X. | 04:38 |
| JustAFigment | that would be one heck of a difference :-) | 04:38 |
| grimlock838 | 10.5.2? | 04:38 |
| raistlinmaje7 | Yatas: I don't have a yahoo account | 04:38 |
| neunon | grimlock838, Yep. | 04:38 |
| raistlinmaje7 | so I can't tell you that | 04:38 |
| kittykitty | i unmounted it several times, ejected it, re-inserted it, ran fsck when the disk wasn't mounted, basically screwed with it every way possible | 04:39 |
| Kohlrak | Zaiden, that's for java and flash, which should be fixed in version 8.04 | 04:39 |
| grimlock838 | what about your viao is that dual boot? | 04:39 |
| Yatas | it doesn't matter raistlinmaje7 | 04:39 |
| kittykitty | i'm about .5 seconds from formatting it | 04:39 |
| JustAFigment | Zaiden: I have installed SecondLife on an AMD64, let me see if I can find the tutorial I used... | 04:39 |
| cappicard | ok.. i'm back in 2.6.24-16 :) | 04:39 |
| Kohlrak | kittykitty, may have to. I've always had trouble with removable drives and ubuntu | 04:39 |
| neunon | grimlock838, No, it's got Ubuntu only. Windows is just horridly slow on it, so I decided it would be my Linux-only box. | 04:39 |
| Yatas | raist , just go on pidgin go add/edit select add -> select yahoo and check advanced | 04:40 |
| kittykitty | i've popped it into my windows computer and its having the same results with xp and thier disk checker | 04:40 |
| * Yatas pets kittykitty | 04:40 | |
| Kohlrak | kittykitty, might be the device itself then | 04:40 |
| Kohlrak | ROFLMAO | 04:40 |
| sortudo_78 | I got an Ip address, domain and DNS configuration, but could not ping my gateway, IT says Destination Host Ubrreachable, Ehat could be wrong ? | 04:40 |
| * kittykitty purrs | 04:40 | |
| grimlock838 | I see ... wells all i can think of is that when I dual booted ubuntu or any other linux distro with xp tablet edition it did weird things that would come and go | 04:41 |
| kittykitty | sortudo_78 is the interface up? | 04:41 |
| trumpetmic | what do you call the latest version of ubuntu? | 04:41 |
| doseryder | grimlock838 it is asking me to create a password for the keyring, should that be my network key to my wireless network? What exactly is a keyring? | 04:41 |
| grimlock838 | Hardy Heron | 04:41 |
| sortudo_78 | What could be wrong ? | 04:41 |
| Zaiden | Er, should I have installed the 64 bit version of ubutnu if I'm running a AMD 64 X2 dual core? | 04:41 |
| Yatas | yes Zaiden | 04:41 |
| Zaiden | ubuntu* | 04:41 |
| Yatas | the 64 bit | 04:41 |
| trumpetmic | how do I get good ol' hardy heron to be part of my windows workgroup? | 04:41 |
| kittykitty | edit your smbd config | 04:42 |
| Kohlrak | trumpetmic, what do you mean? | 04:42 |
| grimlock838 | A keyring basically stores all your various passwords so that you can use it with just one | 04:42 |
| byonix | hi, i'm trying to delete some files, could not succeed, i got the message "Error removing file: Permission denied", how do i resolve it? | 04:42 |
| cappicard | now I'm building the ubuntu kernel for opteron along with the modules. | 04:42 |
| * kittykitty finds big hammer to format tf card with | 04:42 | |
| neunon | grimlock838, Hm. Well, I'm pretty certain this is some sort of interrupt conflict, though I haven't been able to figure out how the liveCD handles interrupts any differently than my current install. /proc/interrupts is the same. | 04:42 |
| Kohlrak | kittykitty, can't you format it in ubuntu? | 04:42 |
| raistlinmaje7 | alright, here are the settings, pager server: scs.msg.yahoo.com, pager port: 5050; file transfer server: filetransfer.msg.yahoo.com; file transfer port: 80; chat room locale: us; encoding: ISO-8859-1 | 04:42 |
| trumpetmic | Kohlrak: well, with previous versions of ubuntu, I was able to use a simple GUI to specify the name of the workgroup I wanted to join | 04:42 |
| kittykitty | hammer will format it better | 04:42 |
| grimlock838 | Well the live cd only runs off your ram. | 04:42 |
| Kohlrak | trumpetmic, should still be the same program | 04:43 |
| Yatas | thank raist | 04:43 |
| JustAFigment | Zaiden: It is not required though. | 04:43 |
| byonix | hi, i'm trying to delete some files, could not succeed, i got the message "Error removing file: Permission denied", how do i resolve it? | 04:43 |
| trumpetmic | Kohlrak: i'm having a hard time finding it | 04:43 |
| raistlinmaje7 | byonix: are you root? | 04:43 |
| neunon | grimlock838, yes. | 04:43 |
| JustAFigment | sudo rm filesnames | 04:43 |
| Zaiden | What's the advantages of the 64bit? | 04:43 |
| MikeCulver | How do I change what text mode a terminal is in? | 04:43 |
| trumpetmic | i think it used to be under System | 04:43 |
| neunon | grimlock838, but it should still interface with the mouse and keyboard the same way. | 04:44 |
| Nostahl | what do i do to auto start a program on bootup | 04:44 |
| Kohlrak | trumpetnic, do you remember the name? there's a search command (which i and many others keep forgetting is in ubuntu) | 04:44 |
| raistlinmaje7 | Nostahl: go to System->Preferences->Sessions | 04:44 |
| amenado | Nostahl-> man update-rc.d or man invoke-rc.d | 04:44 |
| Kohlrak | Zaiden, bigger registers | 04:44 |
| raistlinmaje7 | well, update-rc.d if you want to fool about with init scripts | 04:44 |
| grimlock838 | byonix | 04:44 |
| Zaiden | May as well try it | 04:44 |
| grimlock838 | http://www.pendrivelinux.com/2007/10/02/how-to-open-files-as-root-via-a-right-click/ | 04:44 |
| JustAFigment | Byonix: if you use nautilus (file browser) open a terminal and type sudo nautilus which then it will let you clobber anything you like | 04:44 |
| sortudo_78 | Nostahl: try to use /etc/rd.d/rc.local | 04:45 |
| asizemore | I need quick help with samba shared | 04:45 |
| asizemore | samba shares | 04:45 |
| nuvem | Quick question with regards to xorg.conf: I've tried running dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg, but it immediately starts at the framebuffer question, and always produces a conf with "Configured Video Device" and "Configured Monitor" | 04:45 |
| Nostahl | ty | 04:45 |
| Yatas | this plan suck | 04:45 |
| doseryder | grimlock838 okay, i guess the password its asking me to create is a password for the keyring, so with that password, i have access to all the passwords associated with other wireless networks (or passwords to access various programs too, perhaps??) | 04:45 |
| kittykitty | locate is the search command | 04:45 |
| kittykitty | if you wanted to locate your smbd config, you could just locate samba | 04:45 |
| nuvem | anyone know what might be up with that? | 04:45 |
| grimlock838 | Yes. | 04:45 |
| Kohlrak | Zaiden: Also function args are sent over registers instead of call stack which means more speed for any program made specifically for 64 instead of 32 | 04:45 |
| Yatas | unless there is omething about my screenname that is illegal / to ubuntu ? | 04:45 |
| sortudo_78 | : /etc/rc.d/rc/local | 04:45 |
| asizemore | it tells me that I can't access the share, permission denied | 04:46 |
| doseryder | cool | 04:46 |
| Zaiden | How can I tell what version I'm running? | 04:46 |
| raistlinmaje7 | rhizmoe: success | 04:46 |
| asizemore | it tells me that I can't access the share, permission denied | 04:46 |
| Yatas | Zaiden ? version of what ? | 04:46 |
| Kohlrak | Zaiden, you mean 64 vs 32 or hardy vs gutsy? | 04:46 |
| Zaiden | 64 vs 32 | 04:47 |
| MikeCulver | How do I change text-mode resolution? | 04:47 |
| grimlock838 | Is your wireless connection working dose? | 04:47 |
| Kohlrak | Zaiden, try to run a 64 bit program. If it works it's 64 bit, if it doesn't it complains. | 04:47 |

| sortudo_78 | What could be wrong ? | 04:49 |
| pstangcjd | sortudo_78: unless you want to post those IP adresses I don't think anyone can help | 04:49 |
| grimlock838 | Then find trash toward bottom of list | 04:49 |

I still gotta install ubuntu on my desktop. The sh*tty part is, gutsy doesn't support my wireless network usb adapter, I think that'll take me sometime to figure out | 04:50 |

| MikeCulver | Gand: go into system > prefs > sound and try out ALSA for your output needs. See if it works better | 04:51 |
| Kohlrak | bobsomebody, go to newegg.com and restrict search to pcie and look for the most expensive thing | 04:51 |
| Gand | MikeCulver: no kidding.... i changed to alsa in gstream-properties, is that all? | 04:51 |

| MikeCulver | Gand: I didn't even think to change gstreamer separately... that must be why totem hijacks my audio | 04:52 |
| Gand | MikeCulver: in my tinkering it appears I've already set it to ALSA | 04:52 |
| whuut | Can somebody help me? I've just installed ubuntu and going to install restricted drivers to enable nvidia gpu, how do i do this? | 04:52 |

| Gand | amenado: nothing | 04:57 |
| Jordan_U | Yatas, Many DirectX features are supported through wine, I don't think you could use any windows installers to 'install' more though, I think you just have to wait fro the wine devs to reverse-engineer it ( but I may be wrong ) | 04:57 |
| ToddED1 | oops 9600GT | 04:57 |
| mgsArch | It's a pleasure to join everyone in the Ubuntu Community! Consider this MacOS/Solaris user converted. ^ ^ | 04:57 |

| Flip2405 | grimlocak838 there is a lunix version of yahoo messanger | 04:58 |
| Kohlrak | bobsomebody, not so much the clock as similar architecture. ATI and AMD especially go well because ati cards use amd processors as the microprocessor | 04:58 |
| bobsomebody | upgrading this mess will take forever, http://x.jaywebdesigns.com/i_win.avi (sorry its so small) | 04:59 |

| grimlock838 | I dont thikn so but there is a a yahoo messager you can use inside of firefox | 04:59 |

| grimlock838 | flip http://webmessenger.yahoo.com/ | 05:01 |
| asizemore | mike_: console only | 05:01 |
| amenado | MikeCulver-> try consolechars, i have not used it before, man consolechars for additional info | 05:01 |
| Kohlrak | bobsomebody, many with ATI because ATI neglects linux for some reason | 05:01 |
| mgsArch | bob: I've heard that the latest xorg-radeonhd drivers are working great | 05:01 |
| Kohlrak | bobsomebody: check the drivers site, not drivers for everything | 05:01 |
| MikeCulver | bobsomebody: new FGLRX seems to behave nice with my thinkpad's FireGL | 05:01 |
| Qrawl | Hello. is anyone having weird graphics issues? | 05:01 |
| mgsArch | Kohlr: that should change with the new open drivers though?? | 05:01 |
| mike_ | asizemore: just a sec. i always access that thru gui, and im the only user :D | 05:01 |
| byonix | JustAFigment:ok, my the files are 10Gb | 05:02 |
| amenado | MikeCulver-> if that dont work try sudo dpkg-reconfigure console-setup | 05:02 |
| Jordan_U | Yatas, I don't game but direct X is almost inevitably going to be slower in wine than in windows | 05:02 |
| grimlock838 | no ... the only m$ thing i am on is xboxlive | 05:02 |
| Kohlrak | mgsArch, when did they make them open? I heard that was a while ago, and my card is still treated like XPress 200 instead of 1150 =( | 05:02 |

| neunon | JustAFigment, Aha, I tweaked my google search a bit. Apparently 'mouseemu' is the guilty party! | 05:13 |
| genii | hiro1000: Firstly, just: mount/dev/sda1 will do nothing. You need to tell it a place to make it available (a directory) so something like: mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/sda1 (if you have made the directory of sda1 inside the directory of /mnt) | 05:13 |

| genii | hiro1000: Also if the drive is not native linux filesystem you will need to tell mount command what to try like ntfsor such with -t filesystemnamehere | 05:16 |
| JustAFigment | neunon: BTW, it may not have a name shown in lsusb. all lines describe a device though. look at the numbers then unplug the mouse and run lsmod again to see what is missing | 05:16 |
| genii | hiro1000: Use sudo in front of mount command then and put your usual pasword when asked | 05:16 |
| neunon | JustAFigment, where'd you get that idea? my mouse wasn't responsive while keys were down, and 'mouseemu' caused it. | 05:16 |

| Flip2405 | Hello i was wondering if some one could help me get my webcam working i got it to where it works on msn but when i try to get it to work on anything else it says failed to load /dev/video0 | 05:26 |
| mgsArch | tritium: have you used the 64bit version? | 05:26 |
| JustAFigment | hiro1000: I found a link, reading... | 05:26 |
| doseryder | mgsArch tritium just told me that i may be happier with 32bit, so how is your happiness level :> | 05:26 |
| adam | hmm I have a problem with my login window app from the Admin menu after I upgraded form 7.10 | 05:26 |
| tritium | mgsArch: yes | 05:26 |
| CarlFK | "mount.nfs: mount to NFS server 'rpcbind' failed: RPC Error: Program not registered" - guessing I need to install something on the server, cuz 2 clients can mount other servers, but neither can mount 'this' server | 05:26 |
| doseryder | mgsArch: cool to know u a java programmer. Me too, most of my assignments are done in java :> | 05:27 |
| noclue | okay, so i lost power during upgrade to hardy heron, and now xubuntu seems broken... any ideas on how to "re-upgrade"? | 05:27 |
| mgsArch | doseryder: I love the 64 bit version, it seems wonderful to me. He isn't citing any problems so I'm not sure what to make of that. I've only been using ubuntu for a week, I'm a solaris/mac user. | 05:27 |
| _nix_ | Flip2405: maybe check teh permissions.. of maybe check what device file msn accesses for the camera | 05:27 |
| tritium | Flip2405: do you know for a fact that your cam is supported on linux? | 05:27 |
| JustAFigment | hiro1000: this link says just to mount a NTFS and all is well. Hmmmm | 05:28 |
| Flip2405 | tritium no im not but why would it work in msn messanger if it wasnt | 05:28 |
| barlrol | why doesnt linux have blueray support yet? | 05:28 |
| _nix_ | oh.. gee msn is not on linux? | 05:28 |
| hiro1000 | lol | 05:28 |
| hiro1000 | thats just plain weird | 05:28 |
| asizemore | okay | 05:28 |
| asizemore | seriously | 05:28 |
| asizemore | does anyone know how to change a user directory? | 05:28 |
| mgsArch | doseryder: java is much more fun than objective c! :) | 05:28 |

| kypor | yes, pptp to a windows server. It worked before now it doesn't | 05:31 |
| Qrawl | ok im rebooting | 05:31 |

| burner | kypor: works here with network-manager-pptp | 05:31 |
| _nix_ | Flip2405: are you sure its /dev/video0? launch msn.. or whatever, open a terminal, check the process id with 'ps' and then check the open file descriptors in /proc/<pid>/fd..ish place | 05:31 |
| kypor | thats how it worked for me too | 05:31 |
| kypor | doesn't now | 05:31 |

| user___ | etheredge, what is your issue? | 05:57 |
| babolat | ok etheredge, lemme give it a shot. from the beginning. describe the problem (again?) for me | 05:57 |
| jshriver | What does it mean when a window goes grey? | 05:57 |
| jhb1608 | What is the hardware requirements on Ubuntu 8.04 | 05:57 |
| Flynsarmy | jshriver: It means its frozen i believe | 05:57 |
| mike | Bleh, I reinstalled ubuntu to64bit hardy, and now mu nvidia card won't let me set the resolution past 640x480 | 05:57 |
| techno_freak | jshriver, it is doing something in the background and is busy | 05:57 |
| babolat | jshriver: an app window or the whole screen? | 05:58 |
| JustAFigment | jshriver: it is not responding, possibly it has been suspended | 05:58 |
| jshriver | never had that happen before | 05:58 |
| jshriver | just the window | 05:58 |
| jshriver | firefox and vmware | 05:58 |
| jshriver | and only when I go to browse the filesystem or open something | 05:58 |
| jshriver | can I disable that? | 05:58 |
| naruto | zsoilWorker, this appears: E: Could not open lock file /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (13 Permission denied) | 05:58 |
| naruto | E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), are you root? | 05:58 |
| babolat | jshriver: it has stopped responding. that's an application problem | 05:58 |
| techno_freak | jshriver, it happens with firefox when it is busy trying to load something, it may end up crashing as well | 05:58 |
| JustAFigment | jshiver: no, it is telling you you can not use the window because it is busy | 05:58 |
| jshriver | yikes | 05:58 |
| Flynsarmy | naruto: Use sudo | 05:58 |
| jhb1608 | kmil0, why you pinged on me? | 05:58 |
| jshriver | never had firefox or any app under linux "crash" before | 05:58 |
| jshriver | ok | 05:58 |
| LimCore | can I just install ubuntu over my debian and keep /home partition as-is (but erase others), and then will system work as it did under debian, but upgraded(?) to ubuntu? | 05:59 |
| jshriver | guess I'll have to get used to it :) | 05:59 |
| techno_freak | jshriver, did you try to open some page with/using flash? | 05:59 |

| zd2289 | Nehal: how do i tell which firmware i need? | 05:59 |
| Flynsarmy | jshriver: Hardy comes with a beta version of firefox. It's arguably not as stable as Firefox-2 | 05:59 |
| jshriver | no, just gmail | 05:59 |
| hiro1000 | i am here | 05:59 |
| naruto | Flynsarmy this appears: E: Could not get lock /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (11 Resource temporarily unavailable) | 05:59 |

| erat123 | naruto: sudo apt-get install amsn | 06:31 |
| RyanPrior | naruto: You'll have to find a .deb package for the latest version of compile it yourself. | 06:31 |

| Bidget | legend2440, any idea why it's not working...? | 06:32 |
| tarkus | dopievoli: i though that you could do one or the other. install the gstreamer codecs manually, like you just showed, OR just installing the package with restricted extras.. | 06:32 |
| xim | how can i put my bash prompt in color? | 06:32 |
| RyanPrior | !helpme | madhava | 06:32 |
| ubottu | madhava: Avoid your questions being followed by a trail of "Please, help me", "Can nobody help me?", "I really need this!", and so on. This just contributes to making the channel unreadable. If you are not answered, ask again later; but see also !repeat and !patience | 06:32 |

| junaid | when we reload the synaptic package manager some files download to the system.Where the files store? | 06:41 |
| robert | ok i need help can some one help | 06:41 |
| Bidget | legend2440, well it doesn't have to be an avi file I don't think, the script will convert it to the proper avi, then the proper mpeg, then into dvd | 06:41 |
| whuut | how do i enable mp3 support? | 06:41 |
| naruto | huh.. yeah it apperas as i have 0.97.. but amsn keep saying i dont have the newest.. and when i start a video-chat on amsn.. something apperas like"this amsn version is no longer supported" | 06:41 |
| Bidget | legend2440, if it's already in the right format then I would assume it would just skip that step right | 06:41 |

| ubottu | fsck is the FileSystem ChecKer, which runs automatically when you boot if you didn't shutdown cleanly. Type "man fsck" for information on running it manually. The command "sudo shutdown -F -r now" will force a reboot and a filesystem check; "sudo touch /fastboot" will skip a filesystem check at next reboot | 07:32 |

| RyanPrior | simarson: Only a few bits of it. Very stable all-around on my end. | 07:43 |

| sadiel | simarson: most things run ok to me! | 07:44 |
| kimmey2k3 | firefox-flash combo has been unstable and broken for atleast 6 mounts now | 07:44 |
| simarson | use disk usage analyzer to see the host (windows OS) | 07:44 |
| Buttercup | Another question: With Windoze, the wise thing is to have one hard drive for the OS, and another hard drive for your files/data/photos/etc., so that when you have to reformat the Windoze hard drive, you don't lose your data. | 07:44 |
| Buttercup | Is that necessary in Ubuntu as well? Or does reinstalling not require the hard drive to be formatted? Any blue screens of death in Ubuntu? I'm trying to figure out whether I need to get an extra hard drive... | 07:44 |
| kimmey2k3 | Does it exist bluescreens in linux? | 07:45 |
| sadiel | "use disk usage analyzer to see the host (windows OS)" was that for me, simarson? | 07:45 |
| RyanPrior | Buttercup: we definitely suggest that you do that. However, you don't need multiple hard drives - you can maintain a separate /home partition on the same hard drive. | 07:45 |
| kimmey2k3 | Buttercup: you could have a own /home partition | 07:45 |
| simarson | What i mean with unstable is that it freeze random 6-12 times a day! I have to hardboot it every time | 07:45 |
| RyanPrior | kimmey2k3: We have "kernel panics", which are like blue screens. I've never seen them except when my motherboard failed a few months ago. | 07:45 |
| kimmey2k3 | simarson: never been into that, what does the logs say? | 07:45 |
| kimmey2k3 | RyanPrior: true that | 07:46 |
| kimmey2k3 | but its not like windows *puh* | 07:46 |
| sadiel | kimmey2k3: I have never seen a blue screen on Ubuntu, nor anything like it | 07:46 |

If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3 | 08:01 |
| LimCore | vitasoy: yes | 08:01 |
| RyanPrior | vitasoy: To be honest, this is a huge catastrophe with the SSH thing. All your passwords, credit card info, etc could be compromised. | 08:01 |
| LimCore | vitasoy: still, if such EPIC FAIL about security is possible, It makes me lost trust in ubuntu's security overall | 08:02 |
| RyanPrior | vitasoy: I'm changing all my passwords and getting a new credit card. | 08:02 |
| LimCore | RyanPrior: privmsg? | 08:02 |
| wirechief | doseryder: i am doing the same right now, but had sound problems before and got help in the #alsa channel | 08:02 |
| ljsoftnet | Steam Store shows a blank page, how do i fix it? | 08:02 |
| snowolf | ljsoftnet: #winehq ? | 08:02 |
| ljsoftnet | snowolf yes | 08:03 |
| ljsoftnet | snowolf you mean tranfer to #winehq? | 08:03 |
| snowolf | ljsoftnet: I mean, if you're trying to access it for wine, better ask there | 08:03 |
| vitasoy | RyanPrior: so, this vuln means people can guess my ssh hash right? they can just replay it to my ssh server? I've had that running on my desktop the past five months. | 08:03 |
| Yur1 | can anybody help me struggle with acpi handling-related bug in hardy on laptop? | 08:03 |
| ljsoftnet | snowolf ok | 08:03 |
| mstef | whats the deal with losing internet connection on the web..but irc and everything else works fine? out of no where | 08:03 |

| poweressen | Question, How do i install Ubuntu Live on my USB key , becose the full installation doesnt work well at all, i tryed everything. | 08:04 |
| doseryder | wirechief: you too also experience sound problem on your laptop??? So... did you resolve your problem in #alsa tho? | 08:04 |
| wam | Can anyone point me to a url where the stupid behavour of the last openssl upgrade is described? I'd really like to know which of my keys it destroyed. | 08:04 |
| doseryder | wirechief: i have a pcg-tr3ap its da small guy | 08:04 |
| cornet | wam: http://lists.debian.org/debian-security-announce/2008/msg00152.html | 08:05 |
| wirechief | doseryder i have three computers, i worked with the devs on #alsa they gave me a few scripts to use and they were able to fix sound problems | 08:05 |
| ninina | I'm kinda new to ubuntu and I installed 7.10 but I noticed that 8.04 is now out should I install that before I get settled in? | 08:05 |
| Y-Town | ninina: I would | 08:05 |
| wam | cornet: thanks, i know the problem. But I can't understand why which keys were automatically destroyed. | 08:05 |
| wirechief | doseryder only one computer I was able to figure out using alsamixer the others were with the commands they gave | 08:06 |
| rhydar | hello | 08:06 |
| vitasoy | RyanPrior: also..are you kidding about the credit card change? if you're sufficently paranoid, then why not other stuff too? | 08:06 |
| cornet | wam: destroyed ?! | 08:06 |
| Frogzoo | ninina: might be easiest to just install 8.04 from scratch | 08:06 |
| dopievoli | RyanPrior: Virtualbox | 08:06 |
| wam | cornet: yeah - /etc/ssh/* was regenerated and the old keys are lost. | 08:06 |
| wam | cornet: even all my openvpn connections died. | 08:06 |
| doseryder | wirechief bear wit me for one more sec.. At the moment the device selected is "Intel 82801DB-ICH4 (Alsa mixer)" | 08:06 |

| Fath[0]m | My terminal goes gray everytime I open it, anyone have any ideas why this is? | 08:07 |
| rhydar | pretty crazy in here... | 08:08 |
| vitasoy | RyanPrior: any/all other accounts you use online | 08:08 |
| wirechief | doseryder: at the momemnt my sony is 87% done with install ;) | 08:08 |
| ninina | before I run off to do a fresh install are there any must have programs? the installable software list is pretty daunting | 08:08 |
| RyanPrior | vitasoy: I'm changing my passwords. | 08:08 |
| ljsoftnet | Steam Store shows a blank page, how do i fix it? | 08:08 |
| vitasoy | RyanPrior: also, it looks like they'd have to still guess what your hash is right? I've been running denyhosts (it auto denys you if you have failed ssh'ing in 3 or more times) | 08:08 |
| b4s1c | hello | 08:09 |
| RyanPrior | vitasoy: That would be to break into your system, but if people cached your encrypted SSL traffic, now they can break it. | 08:09 |
| mstef | are there any DNS problems with 8.04? this is the second time that i lost web access but everything else works (irc, aim, etc)..i can ping IP's but not addresses | 08:09 |
| wirechief | doseryder: do you wanna meet on the #alsa channel ? | 08:09 |
| poweressen | LOTS of questions, no answers for me :( i want Liveubuntu on my USB key, i cant find the information, im using the Install Disk of Ubuntu right now and booted as Live | 08:09 |
| naruto | hi.. should i upgrade to 8.04? | 08:10 |
| doseryder | wirechief: sure... are those ppl friendyly (generally) anyways... i'll talk to you there | 08:10 |

| poweressen | 8.04 is very compatible with my new machine. all the drivers are integrated and the interface is perfect compare to windows | 08:11 |
| cornet | wam: /etc/ssh/ssh_host_rsa_key /etc/ssh/ssh_host_dsa_key | 08:11 |
| vitasoy | RyanPrior: no i don't think people can get your ssh login password by caching or analyzing your SSH traffic .. if I understand the vulnerablity correctly. AFAIK - they can precompute the hashes that match your password - and basically do a quick brute force attack on your ssh? | 08:12 |
| cornet | wam: are the keys that were regenerated | 08:12 |
| wam | cornet: and obviously something in /etc/openvpn | 08:12 |
| Fath[0]m | My terminal goes gray everytime I open it, anyone have any ideas why this is? | 08:12 |
| bullgard4 | What do Linux people mean with "works out of the box"? See http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=36134. Certainly it is not meant a cardbox box that includes a program on a data medium. | 08:12 |
| cornet | wam: ls /etc/openvpn/*.broken ? | 08:13 |
| mgolisch | re | 08:13 |
| wam | cornet: nothing. But I'm currently analyzing... | 08:13 |
| RyanPrior | vitasoy: It's something like that. | 08:13 |
| RyanPrior | vitasoy: Basically, I don't trust the interwebs anymore., | 08:13 |
| cornet | wam: odd, i upgraded using aptitude thou rather than synaptic | 08:14 |
| Yur1 | I have one nasty problem with hardy: when I close and open lid on my HP500 laptop, system become unresponsive, vmstat shows about 20% Sys CPU usage, and by using ps I may observe constant spawning of "xrandr --auto" and "/bin/sh -c /etc/acpi/videobtn.sh" and "/bin/bash /etc/acpi/videobtn.sh" processes | 08:14 |
| wam | cornet: I used pkgsync. | 08:14 |
| wam | cornet: which uses aptitude. | 08:14 |
| spootman | does anyone know how to apply an emerald theme? | 08:14 |
| Fath[0]m | My terminal no longer works it just goes to grey | 08:15 |

| poweressen | there is maybe a command to tell Ubuntu live taking a break of my Cd rom, so i can burn my cd | 08:24 |

| Neuron | Congratulations, that does nothing for me. | 08:26 |
| snow_ru | I should find another solution, not using firefox | 08:26 |
| ghindo | Neuron: if nothing else, it means it's not a problem for everyone, and therefore fixable | 08:26 |
| poweressen | yeah get internet explorer | 08:26 |
| ghindo | It's stupid to blame the program if it just doesn't work for you | 08:26 |
| Neuron | ghindo, eh, it wasn't directed at you, I was annoyed at the forum post I'm reading where literally 4 people said that | 08:27 |

| bullgard4 | What do Linux people mean with "works out of the box"? See http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=36134. Certainly it is not meant a cardbox box that includes a program on a data medium. | 08:45 |

| neuron | ghindo, back, on ubuntu, so what am I doing? And thank you in advance for the help | 08:45 |
| poweressen | ok | 08:46 |
| clusty | what has just happened with ssh server? | 08:46 |
| ghindo | neuron, first describe to me what problem you are having with your wireless. What happens when you try to connect to a wireless network? | 08:46 |
| clusty | i cant use keys no more | 08:46 |
| dystopianray | clusty: you have to regenerate your keys | 08:46 |
| neuron | ghindo, there is no attempt to connect unforunately :( I can't even try that, it doesn't read the essid, or that there's even a network in range | 08:47 |
| clusty | dystopianray, so all previous keys are buggered? | 08:47 |
| dystopianray | clusty: yes, since about 2005, an openssl security flaw has been patched | 08:47 |

| microwaver | Hello people, it seems when I use alt tab it sometimes 'hangs' like it flips to my pages for a while. This is not hardware related. | 08:50 |
| poweressen | what is the thing u want to run | 08:50 |
| atle|f | Buttercup: photorec is one great program for recovering files | 08:50 |
| dystopianray | Buttercup: it's possible that the partition is damaged beyond the point of repair | 08:51 |
| [Lowkey] | ghindo: is there a way to maybe emulate windows the same as you can with VMWare? | 08:51 |
| microwaver | [Lowkey], virtualbox | 08:51 |
| [Lowkey] | WINE doesn't really run anything | 08:51 |
| [Lowkey] | Okay | 08:51 |
| ghindo | neuron Have you checked to make sure it's not a restricted driver that needs to be installed? And I know this is a stupid question, but have you checked to make sure that the hardware switch is on? | 08:51 |

| charlie_ | i have a hard drive with a windows partition and an ubuntu partition, but i just got another hard drive so i want to install ubuntu on that and extend my windows partition to take up the whole drive. when i try to delete the windows partition from the like cd it says: Unable to delete /dev/sda5! Please unmount any logical partitions having a number higher than 5 | 09:37 |
| sirhcjw | ghindo: it is like i cant open anything as root in the gui? | 09:37 |
| neuron | bazhang, same :( No DHCPOFFERS received. | 09:37 |
| neuron | No working leases in persistent database - sleeping. | 09:37 |
| ghindo | charlie_, So you're trying to delete the Windows partition? Have you tried gparted yet? | 09:38 |
| bazhang | neuron, run it a couple more times | 09:38 |
| ghindo | sirhcjw: So you've tried other programs as root and it won't allow you to run them? How did the command I suggested work out? Were you able to update correctly? | 09:38 |
| pupster | Hey does anyone know why my wireless card (when set to monitor mode, using wlanconfig), disapears from ifconfig, while it is still within the iwconfig list | 09:38 |
| bazhang | neuron, also try grabbing it from the nm-applet drop down menu | 09:39 |
| charlie_ | ghindo: no i want to delete the ubuntu partition and extend windows to the whole hard drive. when i try to delete the ubuntu partition in gparted it says "Unable to delete /dev/sda5! Please unmount any logical partitions having a number higher than 5" | 09:39 |
| poweressen | charlie simple, do it with the install disk of windows? | 09:39 |
| ghindo | charlie_, are you running this off a live CD, or within Ubuntu itself? | 09:39 |
| wam | which openssl package is secure? Is 0.9.8-5ubuntu3.2 ok? Does 0.9.8-5ubuntu3 contain the bug? | 09:40 |

| sirhcjw | ghindo: yes no probs except then the downloads time out | 09:40 |
| ghindo | charlie_, Have you tried doing it with the install disk of Windows, like poweressen recommended? | 09:40 |
| pupster | Hello? Anyone with some wireless help? | 09:40 |
| charlie_ | no i haven't tried that | 09:41 |
| poweressen | LoL | 09:41 |
| charlie_ | i have windows installed already though, | 09:41 |
| gumpontheweb | gronne,chapai, is it because you just upgraded? | 09:41 |
| neuron | bazhang, both of those provided nothing :( I've done it 3 more times, and there's nothing on the "dropdown" list there | 09:41 |
| gumpontheweb | i feel you neuron | 09:41 |
| poweressen | you cannot with linux, try using the lastest partition magic if u want to keep your data | 09:41 |
| gronne | no, actually not... I can't remember doing anything special at all, it just refused to run | 09:42 |
| Chapai | do you mean the openssh server or ubuntu gumpontheweb | 09:42 |
| ghindo | poweressen, you can delete the LInux partition with a Windows Install cd, right? | 09:42 |
| neuron | gumpontheweb: thanks. | 09:42 |
| bazhang | poweressen, you can with ubuntu/linux; what you said is not correct | 09:42 |
| poweressen | you simply delete the partition, but i think what she need is to resize his ntfs and its not possible with linux to kee your data | 09:43 |
| charlie_ | what if i want to just use my new hard drive as NTFS so i can access it from windows and ubuntu, i can do that in gparted right? | 09:43 |
| pupster | Is there something I need to do, to re-create a wireless interface, so it will be recognized as a normal interface (ifconfig) | 09:43 |
| gumpontheweb | i just updated and lost my wireless connection spots on the drop down & cant connect | 09:43 |
| Radit | why is it so hard to bind the winkey?? | 09:43 |
| icewaterman | hm, is the openssl bug still not fixed? | 09:43 |
| gronne | gumpontheweb: My xbox can't get access to my pc's hdd anymore, that's my problem | 09:43 |
| bazhang | icewaterman, yes it is ; just update | 09:43 |
| dystopianray | icewaterman: it's fixed in gutsy, i don't know about others | 09:43 |
| icewaterman | bazhang: didnt get an update on hardy lately | 09:43 |
| dystopianray | icewaterman: sorry i mean hardy, not gutsy | 09:43 |
| icewaterman | dystopianray: i updated but openssl was not among the updated packages | 09:44 |
| bazhang | it is fixed for all supported versions of ubuntu | 09:44 |
| gumpontheweb | gronne, i got no clue, sorry! | 09:44 |
| charlie_ | if i want to format a secondary hard drive do i set it as primary partition or extended partition | 09:44 |
| poweressen | Ntfs works well with linux but for resizing you will lose data, only partition magic or something like that would work and good luck cracking it without having viruses | 09:44 |
| Radit | wow | 09:44 |
| icewaterman | ah, now it seems available | 09:44 |
| dystopianray | icewaterman: your mirror may be slow to update, what version of openssl are you running? | 09:44 |
| dystopianray | poweressen: you can resize ntfs without losing data | 09:45 |
| icewaterman | dystopianray: dunno, but its updateing right now. | 09:45 |
| bazhang | poweressen, you are mistaken | 09:45 |
| poweressen | i heard its a risk, but ok | 09:45 |
| icewaterman | dystopianray: openssl_0.9.8g-4ubuntu3.1 | 09:45 |
| bazhang | poweressen, please stop offering wrong info | 09:45 |
| gumpontheweb | bazhang, the page you gave me helped none, i dont have my device enabled and when i ifup it says eth1 unrecognized(or something) | 09:46 |
| dystopianray | icewaterman: ok, that is the latest version | 09:46 |
| neuron | Well I'm headed back to Windows, Thanks to everyone who helped | 09:46 |
| icewaterman | ok, i am off generating new certificates | 09:46 |
| neuron | I'll bump my thread on the ubuntu forums, and hope that I'm not screwed when it comes to Linux on this laptop :( | 09:46 |
| gumpontheweb | neuron good luck | 09:46 |
| neuron | gumpontheweb: Thanks mate :) You too! | 09:47 |
| poweressen | well, i read that some people lost data trying to resize Ntfs partitions with linux, i have proof lol | 09:47 |
| charlie_ | i am installing a new hard drive as NTFS, should i create the partition as primary partition, or extended partition? | 09:47 |

| AussieGuy | is tar ok to make an archive over 5gb? | 10:21 |
| dystopianray | jatt: it would appear that you simply don't have any wireless capability | 10:21 |
| hiptobecubic | jrib, cp: cannot overwrite non-directory `/home/john/Music' with directory `/media/ipod/Music/' | 10:22 |
| jatt | dystopianray: hmm what a pity. | 10:22 |
| dystopianray | AussieGuy: yes | 10:22 |
| jatt | dystopianray: thanks for your diagnostic :) | 10:22 |
| scrimple101 | oh so it's got to be a clean install | 10:22 |
| hiptobecubic | jrib, but i want it to put the contents of /media/ipod/music into ~/music | 10:22 |
| scrimple101 | Thanks for that looks like i'll have to back up | 10:22 |
| hiptobecubic | not replace the link | 10:22 |
| dystopianray | jatt: if you found references to wifi support with your laptop online it was probably an optional feature that you don't have | 10:23 |
| jatt | dystopianray: yes you are right, looks like that is the case | 10:23 |
| Klinzy | penis? | 10:23 |
| AussieGuy | the trouble with both tar and zip is they would get up to one particular file, then crash | 10:23 |
| dystopianray | AussieGuy: why would they crash? | 10:23 |
| scrimple101 | jrib: thanks | 10:23 |
| jrib | hiptobecubic: well, your command is wrong... though it still should be working. You want cp -vuR ipod/blah/blah/Music/* ~/Music | 10:23 |
| AussieGuy | not sure...zip crashes with a code, tar claims to put everything in the archive while only putting in half | 10:24 |
| AussieGuy | im backing up an entire drive | 10:24 |
| hiptobecubic | jrib, i'll try.... | 10:24 |
| dystopianray | AussieGuy: what half doesn't it put in? | 10:24 |
| AussieGuy | into a single file so its easy to transfer over a network | 10:24 |
| dystopianray | AussieGuy: do you have read access to every file? | 10:24 |
| dystopianray | AussieGuy: are you running tar as root? | 10:24 |
| hiptobecubic | jrib, thanks got it | 10:25 |

| gordonjcp | jatt: perhaps the model you have doesn't have wifi | 10:27 |
| jatt | gordonjcp: Theh box says intel pentium 4 | 10:27 |
| AussieGuy | im actually using cygwins tar on windows. I want to back up an entire drive so I can put ubuntu there. | 10:27 |
| jatt | gordonjcp: Yes looks like that is the case unfortunately for me | 10:27 |
| dystopianray | jatt: it's most likely that you simply don't have wifi | 10:27 |
| dystopianray | AussieGuy: this is not the place for cygwin help | 10:28 |
| gordonjcp | jatt: no problem, that's actually a good thing in some ways ;-) | 10:28 |
| jatt | dystopianray: so I will give up and tell the admin of my company to find me a wifi card | 10:28 |
| osfameron | dammit ies4linux python installer dumps core | 10:28 |
| gordonjcp | jatt: this means you can go and find a wifi card that's likely to work in Linux, rather than being stuck with one of those frankly *awful* Broadcom on-board things | 10:28 |
| jatt | gordonjcp: yes could be. Actually I wanted to learn how to configure wifi in GNU/Linux. | 10:28 |
| Shevchenko | I would like to know, if accurate record a CD of ubunto or get it right by installing windows and getting the two together? | 10:29 |
| AussieGuy | well anyway thats my plan, to back up a whole drive on windows then put ubuntu on that drive | 10:29 |
| jatt | gordonjcp: are usb wifi cards good? | 10:29 |
| jatt | gordonjcp: or should I worry about the performance | 10:29 |
| dystopianray | AussieGuy: try #cygwin | 10:30 |
| gordonjcp | jatt: I haven't really used them | 10:30 |
| Shevchenko | hello? any1 can help me? | 10:30 |
| dystopianray | jatt: wifi itself is so slow that usb/pci will make no difference | 10:30 |
| gordonjcp | jatt: one of the good things is that you can stick them on a long USB extension and move the stick to where the signaal is best ;-) | 10:30 |
| gordonjcp | dystopianray: unless it's USB1.1 | 10:30 |
| dystopianray | oh yeah | 10:31 |
| dystopianray | jatt: does your laptop support usb 2.0? | 10:31 |
| jatt | dystopianray: no idea. I doubt it since it looks like a very old laptop | 10:31 |

| kajo | @joaopinto | 10:40 |
| joaopinto | kajo, no, what software is it ? I will check the source package myself | 10:41 |
| fryfrog | So I just used update manager to go from 7.10 -> 8.04 and for some reason the new kernel won't finish loading. | 10:41 |
| dystopianray | jatt: i just did some research and it's highly unlikely that you have USB 2.0 | 10:41 |
| kajo | it's called "anki", if you type that into firefox's address bar, google's I"m feeling lucky will bring you to the homepage. | 10:42 |
| dystopianray | jatt: as your laptop has an ICH3-M chipset and USB 2.0 support was introduced with ICH4 | 10:42 |
| fryfrog | When I boot in rescue mode, kernel text zooms by until it hits usb stuff and then... stops | 10:42 |
| napster | is there any software to resume download | 10:42 |
| kajo | http://www.ichi2.net/anki/download/index.html | 10:42 |
| fryfrog | previously, it stopped right after firewire so i turned that off | 10:42 |
| kajo | That is a link | 10:42 |
| napster | pause and resume it | 10:42 |
| fryfrog | the *old* kernel still boots the system however :/ | 10:42 |
| kajo | The .deb has python dependency problems, so I tried to use the source. | 10:43 |
| fryfrog | when the kernel stops booting, it is *still* responding though. | 10:43 |
| napster | any one ??? | 10:43 |
| fryfrog | i can press enter, hit ctrl-alt-del, plug/unplug usb devices and see them detected on the screen | 10:43 |
| kajo | last 3 @ joaopinto | 10:43 |
| fryfrog | i have nfi what is wrong :/ | 10:43 |
| napster | any software to pause and resume the download.. | 10:43 |
| fryfrog | napster: how about firefox? | 10:44 |
| babolat | will someone please look at http://imagebin.ca/view/BojFtiL.html | 10:44 |

| kajo | sudo aptitude install libqt4-dev? | 10:46 |
| kajo | @void, no, the .deb has python dependency problems, best I could tell. | 10:46 |
| babolat | blame: i was actually asking you to look because of a Transmission problem. speeds get so impossibly high but the download is stalled | 10:46 |
| fryfrog | napster: i guess you are screwed, the internet doesn't support this "resume" stuff | 10:46 |
| jatt | dystopianray: thanks for your research :). Regarding USB I've used it with this laptop with an external sound card to be able to hear my mp3 in my hifi system. That card supports USB 1 and 2 I think. But for WIFI USB1 would be too slow I guess. | 10:47 |
| rio | where can i set the resolution of the ubuntu splash while booting? | 10:47 |
| joaopinto | kajo, I will try to build a .deb myself, but don't wait for it :P | 10:47 |

| kajo | What about the other several files needed? | 10:47 |

| kajo | @void, could you give me a step by step? I don't know where I went wrong. | 10:48 |
| kajo | @joaopinto, I don't know exactly what that means. | 10:48 |
| joaopinto | Bryan, have you tried CTRL-ALT-F1 ? | 10:49 |
| kajo | I noticed the file called debian, but I haven't seen that before. | 10:49 |

| kajo | This is my first source file. | 10:49 |
| void^ | +b | 10:49 |
| joaopinto | Kaja, it means, you can use a command which builds the .deb package for you, also it should teell you what packages are required for the building process | 10:49 |
| Bryan | joaopinto, I just want it to boot into the command line. | 10:49 |
| blame | babolat: then pause and restart transmission | 10:49 |
| Bryan | I don't even want it to go through the GUI. | 10:49 |
| joaopinto | Bryan, the live cd will always try to start X | 10:49 |
| babolat | blame: it just goes back to building up until it gets silly | 10:50 |
| joaopinto | but like i said, you may able to switch to a text console | 10:50 |

| incorrect | anyone know of a script that examines your hardware and can generate you a optimised kernel .config | 10:53 |
| joaopinto | kajo, if you have some minutes to wait a may provide a .deb built for hardy | 10:53 |

| esperegu | pvh_sa|wrk: I need it in one line so it will print the ip of the interface that is used for the current default gateway | 11:04 |

| jamesjb124 | when i try to install ubuntu on my athlon 64 desktop, it freezes after it starts up the partition manager. i never see the manager, it just does the loading for it, that disappears, and im leave with a freeze until i do a manual reboot. i checked the cd for errors, no problems. any idea? | 11:06 |
| pvh_sa|wrk | esperegu, well here goes: ifconfig `netstat -nr |grep 0.0.0.0|head -1 | awk '{print $8}'` | grep 'inet addr' | awk '{print $2}' | awk 'BEGIN {FS=":"} {print $2}' | 11:07 |
| esperegu | i need a command that will only print the Ip currently used | 11:07 |
| esperegu | that looks like samething! | 11:07 |
| kajo | joaopinto, it won't work on feisty, period? | 11:07 |
| biabia | hey my usb flash drive somehow became corrupted, and wont mount. is there a linux way to format/fix it | 11:07 |
| esperegu | pvh_sa|wrk: u ta bomb | 11:07 |
| Bobonov | No one using mydns on hardy? | 11:07 |
| joaopinto | yes, it wont work, period :P | 11:07 |
| kajo | joaopinto, did you make that .deb for hardy? | 11:07 |
| pvh_sa|wrk | esperegu, pipes, grep, sed and awk are your friends ;) | 11:08 |
| joaopinto | no, since you had no use for it, i have removed it | 11:08 |
| esperegu | pvh_sa|wrk: If u master them ;-) | 11:08 |
| void^ | kajo: their official .deb works on hardy. | 11:08 |
| kajo | void^, thanks. | 11:08 |
| kajo | ciao, thanks for bearing with me. | 11:08 |

| thefish | kajo, or df -h for easy human readable goodness | 11:09 |
| Zyndrof | Hi! I've been trying to install Ubuntu 8.04 on my HP Pavilion desktop. It won't work unless I deactivate ACPI. But when I do deactivate it from the installation console the USB-ports are shut down making me unable to access my mouse or my keyboard. I've checked BIOS but cannot find anything related to Power Management or ACPI. Any ideas? | 11:09 |
| kajo | I was just about to ask, fish, thanks. | 11:09 |
| thefish | kajo, no prob :) | 11:10 |
| dystopianray | Zyndrof: you'll probably need to use an older version | 11:10 |
| pvh_sa|wrk | suddendeatz, does : ps -U `id -un` |grep compiz | 11:10 |
| Zyndrof | Wouldn't a newer version have better support? | 11:10 |
| Don64 | yesterday there was an error for gutsy users with open ssh client. Has this been fixed? I just received the update notice. | 11:10 |
| pvh_sa|wrk | suddendeatz, show that you have compiz running? or maybe ps -U `id -un` |grep metacity | 11:10 |
| pvh_sa|wrk | suddendeatz, shows that you have metacity running :P | 11:11 |
| suddendeatz | how can i check it that this running | 11:11 |
| emma | Zyndrof, why did you have to deactivate that. What trouble were you having? | 11:11 |
| === tolecnal_ is now known as tolecnal | ||
| === sean_ is now known as solarnexus | ||
| pvh_sa|wrk | suddendeatz, those commands i sent you - esp the first one - if it doesn't show "compiz.real", compiz isn't running | 11:12 |
| frojnd | hej guys: If I wanna check if my ssh keys are voularable I must run this checker: ssh-vulnkey yes ? | 11:12 |
| Zyndrof | emma: I don't really now, but I have debugged with a list of commands and my conclusion is that the installation won't continue if I don't turn off ACPI. When I don't it shows a bunch of errors and locks in console mode. | 11:12 |
| emma | Zyndrof, hmm. | 11:12 |
| emma | Zyndrof, did you try putting it in safe graphics mode? | 11:12 |
| frojnd | Or I'll ask otherwise, how can I change generator for fingerprints for ssh ? | 11:13 |
| emma | I had a problem with my instalation until I put it in safe graphics mode to enter into the live CD | 11:13 |
| jamesjb124 | When i try to install ubuntu on my athlon 64 desktop, it freezes after it starts up the partition manager. i never see the manager, it just does the loading for it, that disappears, and im left with a freeze until i do a manual reboot. i checked the cd for errors, no problems. any ideas? | 11:13 |
| Zyndrof | emma: No, haven't tried that. But I did try both the Live CD and the Alternate one. | 11:13 |
| void^ | frojnd: it's fixed | 11:13 |
| frojnd | void^: from when? I've installed ubuntu server yesterday | 11:14 |
| void^ | frojnd: just make sure it's up to date. | 11:14 |
| Karotte | hi all | 11:14 |
| Karotte | Is there a way to use the *-blacklist packages for debian? | 11:14 |
| frojnd | void^: standart sources ? than it's I haven't uncomment any other | 11:14 |
| Karotte | Debian has no ssl/openvpn check tools available for the libssl issue | 11:15 |
| void^ | frojnd: the securiy repo, most importantly. | 11:15 |
| Radit | how do i open & create rar archives in ubuntu 8.10? | 11:16 |

| emma | Ahh sorry Zyndrof that worked for me, I am not sure what's happening. | 11:27 |
| esperegu | pvh_sa|wrk: probably a stupid question but how can I include the line you gave me in another command? | 11:28 |
| emma | Zyndrof, what kind of system do you run? | 11:28 |
| Don64 | I am running gutsy. Yesterday I was watching this channel for a while and saw that there were errors for some users who updated ssl auto update. I have an update for this package in the auto update | 11:28 |
| pvh_sa|wrk | esperegu, if you want to put that value in a variable, enclose the whole thing in ` ` - so e.g. MYIP=`<blah>` | 11:29 |
| Don64 | now. is it safe to upgrade this yet? | 11:29 |
| Zyndrof | HP Pavilion desktop, Pentium IV 3.6GHz, Nvidia GeForce 7800GTX, 1.5GiB RAM | 11:29 |
| alexandremrj | Don64, it's the best to update now | 11:29 |
| esperegu | pvh_sa|wrk: doesn't it then end it after ifconfig ` | 11:29 |
| pvh_sa|wrk | eh, sorry.. yeah, you'll have to escape those out (with \) | 11:30 |
| _julian | hi all | 11:30 |
| _julian | does usplash in hardy heron use direct vesa access? - I can't see an initialised fb-dev with ubuntu?! | 11:30 |

| esperegu | pvh_sa|wrk: cool thx | 11:31 |
| Ademan | hrm, does anyone know how to get compiz's window menu on windows without title bars? (like xmms) | 11:32 |
| alexandremrj | Don64, i see no reports of errors in the update | 11:32 |
| Don64 | alexandremrj: thank you : ) | 11:33 |
| alexandremrj | Don64, and besides, it's a biggest security flaw if you don't update | 11:33 |

| esperegu | what's the best way to run a command at boot? | 11:34 |
| laeg | session manager | 11:35 |
| emma | Zyndrof, what about running it in noapic pci=routeirq | 11:35 |
| alexandremrj | esperegu: at boot or when you log in? | 11:35 |
| laeg | esperegu: system > prefs > sessions | 11:35 |
| pvh_sa|wrk | esperegu, you can use /etc/rc.local ? | 11:35 |
| esperegu | alexandremrj: boot | 11:35 |
| esperegu | before loggin in | 11:35 |
| laeg | my bad | 11:35 |
| pvh_sa|wrk | esperegu, at login time? then add it to your session with System -> Preferences -> Sessions | 11:36 |
| esperegu | pvh_sa|wrk: that file has an exit 0. so I can't just add to it. is there an easier way? (I want people to be able to just paste it into a terminal) | 11:36 |
| alexandremrj | esperegu: that will have to be by editing text files but i'm not an expert in that so can't help you, sorry | 11:37 |
| esperegu | pvh_sa|wrk: no. before loggin in. so even if they don't login | 11:37 |
| biabia | kling0n: how do i list the devices to find the devicename | 11:37 |
| Zyndrof | emma: noapic has proven to make no difference... But I'll try that combination. Any other tips? It's not fun restartin the computer over and over when it doesn't work :P | 11:37 |
| joaopinto | esperegu, add your commands to /etc/rc.local | 11:37 |
| pvh_sa|wrk | esperegu, then /etc/rc.local runs at boot time, so you'd want to use that | 11:37 |
| esperegu | pvh_sa|wrk: I was hoping that an echo 'command' >> /etc/rc.local | 11:38 |
| kling0n | biabia: you could simply try typing dmesg' | 11:38 |
| biabia | ok | 11:38 |
| esperegu | pvh_sa|wrk: but the exit 0 is preventing that right? | 11:38 |
| pvh_sa|wrk | esperegu, and add it before the exit 0 ;) | 11:38 |
| kling0n | to get the output from the device load | 11:38 |
| kasco | hola | 11:38 |

| emma | Zyndrof, I know how you feel. I don't really have any other ideas though. | 11:39 |
| zamba | i want to restrict what a user is able to do on my system.. i want to set up a machine as a "info kiosk", meaning they can only use the computer for web surfing purposes.. how can i easily set up something like this based on ubuntu? | 11:39 |
| esperegu | pvh_sa|wrk: is there a way to do that on a commandline that one can just paste in a terminal then? ( like the: echo 'command' >> /etc/rc.local ) | 11:39 |
| kasco | alguien espanol | 11:39 |
| esperegu | but than that it is placed before the exit 0 | 11:39 |
| pvh_sa|wrk | esperegu, no, i'd recommend editing /etc/rc.local with gedit or maybe vi ;) | 11:39 |
| sanja | hi | 11:40 |
| Zyndrof | emma: Ok, thanks... I'll try it in a minute and we'll see how it goes. | 11:40 |
| idefine | how would I start a python script as a linux service? | 11:40 |
| pvh_sa|wrk | esperegu, there *is* a way, but why complicate things? i mean, you could simply delete echo 'command' >/etc/rc.local (and overwrite the file) | 11:40 |
| esperegu | pvh_sa|wrk: hm... the people that have to do this are really noobs... pasting in a terminal is aready hard. editing is a little to much I think | 11:40 |
| sanja | can i get german help here ? | 11:40 |
| joaopinto | idefine, you mean, you want to run a python app during system startup ? | 11:40 |

| idefine | joaopinto: well, yes, but is it possible to also turn it into a service? | 11:41 |
| pvh_sa|wrk | esperegu, so echo 'command' > /etc/rc.local - no need to save that exit 0, is there? | 11:41 |
| esperegu | pvh_sa|wrk: yeah. but my local file here has already something in it for example. you never certain right? | 11:41 |
| idefine | joaopinto: for example apache, starts up as a linux service. | 11:41 |
| pvh_sa|wrk | esperegu, *sigh* ok, then write your command to file.sh, and cat file.sh /etc/rc.local > /etc/rc.local - that will append the existing rc.local at the end of your commands | 11:41 |
| esperegu | pvh_sa|wrk: I don't wanna mess up a workin rc.local | 11:41 |
| joaopinto | idefine, well, running it a startup is easy, you just need to add it to /etc/rc.local | 11:41 |
| alexandremrj | esperegu: why not create a user that logs in automatically and has no permissions so you can create that kiosk mode? | 11:41 |
| joaopinto | running it as a service implies creating a start/stop script and the respective links | 11:41 |
| esperegu | alexandremrj: others should install the pc. | 11:42 |
| idefine | joaopinto: ah, ok, what do you mean by the respective links? | 11:42 |

| copyofjohan | hey, I need to burn a 4,1 GIB file to dvd. I can I do this? Brasero/Nautilus fail... | 11:42 |
| joaopinto | first you need the script located at /etc/init.d | 11:42 |
| copyofjohan | I mean: How can I do this? | 11:43 |
| joaopinto | then you can use update-rc.d to manage the links (links are used to setup start/stop steps) | 11:43 |

| spaceninja | does ubuntu get slow? | 11:46 |
| esperegu | pvh_sa|wrk: I gues it must be possible to do that on a commandline while checking if exit 0 is there and otherwise removing it (and adding it afterwards) | 11:46 |

| biabia | kling0n: fsck gives a lengthy error message | 11:49 |
| joaopinto | idefine, there are command line shells, but your question is offtopic, try ##windows :) | 11:49 |
| kelvin911 | idefine: i think u need cygwin | 11:49 |
| gordonjcp | drowner_: so the bug has been fixed, and now it wants to make a new key | 11:49 |
| joaopinto | spacemoose, run apps which only provide 32bits binaries :) | 11:49 |

| kelvin911 | idefine: i think windows has the new shell come with vista | 11:49 |
| gordonjcp | spaceninja: well, afaik Flash only works in 32-bit | 11:49 |
| drowner_ | gordonjcp: thanks. | 11:49 |
| spaceninja | gordonjcp: someone told me it worked out of the box in 64bit | 11:49 |
| ushimitsudok1 | gordonjcp: Flash works in 64-bit, but is a bit more tricky to install | 11:49 |
| joaopinto | gordonjcp, that is not correct, flash works with 64 bits | 11:49 |
| kelvin911 | idefine: i forgot the name, something like powershell | 11:49 |
| gordonjcp | joaopinto: oh, does it? | 11:50 |
| idefine | kelvin911: yeah, that's it, but i still think that's pretty crappy. | 11:50 |

| idefine | kelvin911: i meant 4th graders. | 11:53 |
| gordonjcp | as in, you could use Windows but if you've got problems you're on your own | 11:53 |
| esperegu | pvh_sa|wrk: could you give me a command line that does that then? add a commend before the exit 0 ? | 11:53 |

| Radit | Can somebody tell me how to bind the winkey? | 11:54 |
| idefine | kelvin911: i once had to finger paint in 7th grade, can you believe it. | 11:55 |
| kelvin911 | i think force grade 4 to learn linux command is to much | 11:55 |
| kelvin911 | but it is good idea to teach them how to uses linux x windows | 11:55 |
| idefine | kelvin911: just the basics, runing and play with stuff, | 11:55 |
| kelvin911 | i start using x windows when i am in first year university | 11:55 |
| kelvin911 | back then win2k looks way better than solaris x windows | 11:56 |
| kelvin911 | so i keep using windows | 11:56 |
| kelvin911 | probably i am also a gamer so i keep using windows i didnt switch | 11:56 |

| kelvin911 | or try it later when the server is online again | 12:00 |
| gnomefreak | moDumass: you cant unless they have more than one mirror that is server side and we really dont support unofficial repos | 12:00 |

| moDumass | gnomefreak do you know if there is an official repo for tor? | 12:00 |
| gnomefreak | tor the package? | 12:01 |
| moDumass | yeh | 12:01 |
| kelvin911 | gnomefreak: are u admin here? | 12:01 |
| moDumass | according to the tor website that is the repo | 12:01 |
| virtuald | why not use the tor in hardy? | 12:01 |
| alexandremrj | moDumass: http://mirror.noreply.org/pub/tor/dists/ - only stops in other dists | 12:01 |
| alexandremrj | moDumass: there is no hardy, so it can't find it | 12:01 |
| moDumass | virtuald according to the tor channel the tor in hardy is way old | 12:02 |
| chalcedony | (((((( moDumass )))))) | 12:02 |
| virtuald | ok | 12:02 |
| virtuald | there is experimental-0.2.0.x-hardy/ in that dir | 12:02 |
| gnomefreak | kelvin911: yes | 12:02 |
| moDumass | alexandermrj ok, cool, i think the site said "replace dist with your distro as in gutsy or feisty" | 12:02 |
| moDumass | so i did | 12:03 |
| gnomefreak | moDumass: its in ubuntu repos | 12:03 |
| moDumass | <chalcedony> hows it goin | 12:03 |
| virtuald | moDumass: try if the gutsy package works | 12:03 |
| gnomefreak | tor - anonymizing overlay network for TCP | 12:03 |
| gnomefreak | !info tor hardy | moDumass | 12:03 |
| ubottu | modumass: tor (source: tor): anonymizing overlay network for TCP. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.1.2.19-2 (hardy), package size 947 kB, installed size 2076 kB | 12:03 |
| * chalcedony smiles | 12:03 | |
| alexandremrj | moDumass: there is a hardy experimental in the link i pasted here, you can try it although i don't recomend it | 12:03 |
| alexandremrj | moDumass: if you want tor use repositories of hardy | 12:03 |
| gnomefreak | kelvin911: what type of admin did you mean and is there something that i can do for you? | 12:04 |
| gerhard | any channel for help in maths homework? | 12:04 |
| ivan` | #math | 12:04 |
| gerhard | thx | 12:04 |
| Zyndrof | Ok, this is how it is... During the installation, whenever I write anything in the console that turns of ACPI, I get to the settings window, no matter if i use the alternate CD or the Live CD. What happens then is that USB-ports shut down and I'm stuck since I cannot use my mouse nor my keyboard. I have tried starting in safe graphics mode and all of the following boot commands: noacpi, nolacpi, noirqpoll, irqpoll, nosmp, acpi=off, noa | 12:04 |
| virtuald | moDumass: the version in hardy is up to date | 12:04 |
| gnomefreak | alexandremrj: tor is stable in hardy and hardy is stable | 12:04 |
| gnomefreak | moDumass: what ubuntu version ar eyou running? | 12:05 |
| gnomefreak | are you | 12:05 |
| moDumass | virtuald im using hardy | 12:05 |
| gnomefreak | tor has been in repos for a long time | 12:05 |
| moDumass | 8.04 | 12:05 |
| Toznoshio | Has anyone replace all of wine's DLLs with genuine Windows XP DLLs? Will this break anything? | 12:05 |
| gnomefreak | moDumass: than just install tor :) its version 0.1.2.19-2 | 12:06 |
| alexandremrj | gnomefreak: i said i didn't recomend the experimental package in the link he supplied although he could try it | 12:06 |
| moDumass | hmm, yeh but the tor that is in repos is old according to the admin on the channel "tor" | 12:06 |
| alexandremrj | it's always best from the repos | 12:06 |
| gnomefreak | alexandremrj: oh from the unofficial repos you mean | 12:06 |
| zoobox | hello | 12:06 |
| moDumass | um, so how do i remove the repos in that list | 12:06 |
| moDumass | im looking for it, i dont think its in sources.list | 12:06 |
| kelvin911 | gnomefreak: is it save to not have ubuntu-desktop package? | 12:07 |
| alexandremrj | moDumass: System, Administration, Software Sources | 12:07 |
| gnomefreak | moDumass: its in universe repo please enable it but i swore it was already | 12:07 |
| zamba | how can i check if my architecture supports 64 bit os? | 12:07 |
| emma | moDumass, that is intentional. The repos are supposed to be stable versions of software. You don't want to mess with your sources.list | 12:07 |
| gnomefreak | kelvin911: yes safe | 12:07 |
| alexandremrj | moDumass: see if you have it in the third-party lists | 12:07 |
| kelvin911 | gnomefreak: how to make it so i have the ubuntu-desktop package installed without pulseaudio? | 12:07 |
| gnomefreak | jenda: on stable releases not as important | 12:07 |
| zoobox | is it possible somehow to boot from the ubuntu livecd and from that run something that checks that all packages on the ubuntu-installation on the harddisk is correct? | 12:07 |
| kelvin911 | because the pulseaudio is creating problem here | 12:08 |
| spaceninja | is it? | 12:08 |
| gnomefreak | kelvin911: ubuntu-desktop being removed is not a bad thing its only the package not everything | 12:08 |
| gnomefreak | kelvin911: no sound with flash problem? | 12:08 |
| kelvin911 | gnomefreak: then what is the point of ubuntu-desktop package? | 12:08 |
| weaseal | Does anyone know the apt-get or dpkg command to print all installed packages? I looked in the help and didn't locate it | 12:09 |
| kora | hi, when i try to connect to my gumstix minicomputer via bluetooth applet i get "couldnt disply device obex://[MAC]", i have obex-vfs package installed. i need it as a serial cvconnection to shh to the minicomputer. no authentification is required | 12:09 |
| kelvin911 | when i have pulseaudio i cant play sound in more than one app | 12:09 |
| gnomefreak | kelvin911: installing it brings in tons of packages but its an empty meta package | 12:09 |
| bazhang | kelvin911, you still asking about ubuntu-desktop package? | 12:09 |
| alexandremrj | kelvin911: ubuntu-desktop package simply helps glue everything together for the dist upgrades | 12:09 |
| zoobox | so it lists everything that isn't on the installationcd or in ubuntus servers sort of... | 12:09 |
| kelvin911 | for example when i play mp3 in rhythmbox then i cant have sound in games | 12:09 |
| gnomefreak | kelvin911: ah yes there was a work around for htat | 12:09 |
| gnomefreak | that | 12:09 |
| mgolisch | kelvin911: sure those apps are setup to use pulse? | 12:09 |
| kelvin911 | or vice versa | 12:09 |
| === cE_LutCUw_nGEtz is now known as cE_pHeN_CybEr_nI | ||
| bazhang | kelvin911, that was all explained to you yesterday | 12:09 |
| kelvin911 | also the mp3 song in vlc is skipping and having poping sound | 12:09 |
| kelvin911 | now i dont have system sound | 12:10 |
| bazhang | weaseal, the dpkg -l command | 12:10 |
| emma | weasel -- dpkg --get-selections > installed-software.txt | 12:10 |
| spaceninja | if I unmark something in adept and apply it, will it be COMPLETELY removed from the system? | 12:10 |
| kelvin911 | i know it is not a big deal but do i need to install maybe esound package so i can have system sound? | 12:10 |
| gnomefreak | kelvin911: i cant remember if the fix hit or the workarounds. crimsun was PA every fixed concerning multiple sound apps at a time? | 12:10 |
| DracoZA | Question: if my eth0 is set to roaming where do I set the DNS server ? (non dhcp) | 12:11 |
| bazhang | kelvin911, you have gone from pulse to alsa to pulse; with all the installing and reinstalling and so on it is a wonder you have sound at all | 12:11 |
| Becker_11 | Hi, Is there a keyboard shortcut to switch between virtual desktops?? I find it really annoying having to grab the mouse to do it. | 12:11 |
| emma | weasel: Open a terminal and type: dpkg --get-selections > installed-software.txt | 12:11 |
| kora | ctrl+alt+arrowkey | 12:11 |
| kora | @becker | 12:11 |
| kelvin911 | bazhang: i didnt go from pulseaudio to alsa | 12:11 |
| Becker_11 | kora gottcha thanks :) | 12:11 |
| emma | then you should find a file called installed-software.txt has been made with all your installed packages | 12:11 |
| spaceninja | what's dpkg? | 12:11 |
| alexandremrj | kelvin911: I know this sounds stupid but when i installed pulse the first thing the pc did to me was mute my sistem, but not in the general | 12:12 |
| kelvin911 | killall pulseaudio fix all problem | 12:12 |
| bazhang | spaceninja, what works to make apt get the job done :) | 12:12 |
| DracoZA | spaceninja debian package sumthin | 12:12 |

| el | Hi, how can I install older version of Swiftfox? | 12:13 |
| kelvin911 | bazhang: like startup sound and shutdown sound | 12:13 |

| spaceninja | adept | 12:13 |
| Gullstad | Hello. Is it possible to get back information (folder) deleted with rm -r? | 12:13 |
| emma | IdleOne, I think you need to make a home partition before you can do a clean install without touching /home | 12:13 |
| bazhang | spaceninja, you forgot add/remove and wget | 12:14 |
| IdleOne | emma, ok how do I do that.? | 12:14 |
| spaceninja | 7 differerent package managers?! | 12:14 |
| emma | spacemoose, synaptic package manager is the GUI for the apt-get tools. dpkg is the workhorse under all of them. | 12:14 |
| IdleOne | emma, I have never made a seperate /home . I always just let the installer do the partitioning | 12:14 |
| alexandremrj | spaceninja: relax, apt-get, synaptics and add/remove are the same | 12:15 |
| bazhang | kelvin911, what about setting system sound to 'on' in sound prefs | 12:15 |
| alexandremrj | spaceninja: just guis | 12:15 |
| spaceninja | ok | 12:15 |
| emma | IdelOne - Yeah so when I made my /home partition it was by doing a manual install. | 12:15 |
| spaceninja | good | 12:15 |
| kelvin911 | bazhang: to on? | 12:15 |
| alexandremrj | wget is simply to download it doesn't install | 12:15 |
| spaceninja | hehe ok | 12:15 |
| IdleOne | emma, I assume I need to make a new /home in a seperate partition the copy my existing one over then doing a fresh install? | 12:16 |

| Becker_11 | 1 other Q? I've just installed firestarter I assume I don't need to open it every time I'm online for it to work. | 12:16 |
| kora | When i try to connect to my gumstix minicomputer via bluetooth applet i get "couldnt disply device obex://[MAC]", i have obex-vfs package installed. i need it as a serial cvconnection to shh to the minicomputer. no authentification is required, any1 has an idea? | 12:17 |
| bazhang | Becker_11, that is just the front end for iptables; set it and forget it | 12:17 |
| mcphail | I have just updated my openssh server. Aptitude did not report anything about regenerating the host certificate. There has been no warning about a changed certificate when I connect. Do I need to manually regenerate the certificate? | 12:17 |
| Becker_11 | bazhang thx | 12:17 |
| alexandremrj | Becker_11: simply install firestarter in you sesseion and it will start when you log in | 12:17 |

| emma | IdelOne -- I personally made my home partition when I installed Gutsy. It's easier to do when it's a fresh install I think. I saved all my important data to an external storage device and then did the home partition at install. Now that I have it, doing fresh installs is easy. And I am glad I did it. | 12:21 |

| livingdaylight | bazhang: perdon | 13:10 |
| livingdaylight | what is the difference between Epiphany Web Browser and Epiphany Web Browser (Gecko) ? | 13:10 |
| achadwick | livingdaylight: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Epiphany_%28web_browser%29 "The Epiphany team intends to drop the Gecko back-end and continue forward only with the WebKit engine". I assume. | 13:11 |
| kelvin911 | anyone knows a software in ubuntu can read mathml or odf files? | 13:11 |
| livingdaylight | achadwick: so, i should choose the one without (Gecko) ? | 13:11 |
| === Xerxes_ is now known as poisonblack | ||
| neuron | livingdaylight, mira aqui http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gecko_(layout_engine) | 13:12 |
| LimCore | since kformulas is another epic failure, can I install kformula-kde4? and use it, while having entire kde in normal (kde3) version? | 13:12 |
| legend2440 | kelvin911: http://www.fileinfo.net/extension/odf | 13:12 |
| achadwick | livingdaylight: Up to you, I suppose. It's news to me that the epiphany crew were doing this, but presumably they have their reasons. Compare versions to make sure you aren't getting something too fragile and untested. | 13:13 |

| [GSF]Martin | gksudo nautilus? | 13:14 |
| Dr_willis | tdawgedogg, for syngery i was thinkign that config was /etc/synergy.conf - Your user should have permissions to write to their own home directory. If not you got some issues. | 13:14 |
| virtuald | what does the *.save files in /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/ and /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ do? it looks like backups, will they not be used? | 13:14 |
| tdawgedogg | well i just created the file with text editor | 13:14 |
| bazhang | LimCore, best ask in #kubuntu-kde4 | 13:14 |
| Dr_willis | tdawgedogg, be sure you are trying to save to /home/USER and not /home | 13:15 |

| achadwick | livingdaylight: I'd install the non-(Gecko) one in that case, to make your alternative as different as possible from Ffx. | 13:16 |
| livingdaylight | why not just put the one epiphany? caramba | 13:16 |
| neuron | livingdaylight: No idea, probably to give people a choice :) | 13:16 |
| achadwick | livingdaylight: because it reflects the current state of epiphany upstream. | 13:16 |

| ciphergoth | I've just upgraded from Gutsy to Hardy, and I'm seeing the "black window bug" when I use compiz. I have an NVidia GeForce FX 5700 Ultra graphics card, and I'm using the restricted driver. Anyone else seen this? | 13:19 |
| neuron | livingdaylight, I consider Firefox and Opera to be quite good browsers | 13:19 |
| bazhang | neuron, well, successful attempts to connect will do that; best to have a back up box while you do this if at all possible | 13:19 |
| neuron | livingdaylight, Por favor, utilice #ubuntu-offtopic para seguir discutiendo. :D | 13:20 |
| neuron | bazhang, I can come on here with my room mate's laptop, would that help? | 13:20 |
| ciphergoth | by the "black window bug" I mean that when I open a window, it is completely black, though it responds to mouse clicks. Googling suggests these symptoms match a bug in the NVidia driver that was fixed long ago. | 13:20 |
| bazhang | neuron, that would be more suitable | 13:20 |
| neuron | bazhang, ok, give me one minute to get it then! | 13:20 |

| wols | good afternoon. If I need IE (with acrobat reader) under ubuntu, what's the best option for that. so far it seems to be IE4Linux but it doesn't look too stable | 13:36 |
| wols | and no, IE is mandatory, no other way | 13:36 |
| === neuron_ is now known as neuron | ||
| mrben | wols: why IE with Acrobat Reader? | 13:36 |
| Bodsda | !wine | wols | 13:37 |
| ubottu | wols: WINE is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine for more information, and see !AppDB for application compatibility. | 13:37 |
| wols | cause that's what the webapp needs. and I can't change that | 13:37 |
| mrben | wols: ies4linux is probably the best bet, or try directly with WINE | 13:37 |
| wols | ies4linux was (slightly) more stable so far | 13:37 |
| LimCore | kelvin911: I need an SVG | 13:37 |

| rexy__ | where does networkmanager store the configurations for openvpn, i need to modify it so it also updates the dns entries | 14:20 |
| d | ok | 14:20 |
| Slart | zimnyx: are the logs for the ftp server? if there is.. do your failed login attempts show up there? perhaps it gives you some kind of reason for the login failure.. | 14:20 |
| d | i am running OLPC on my new dell/macbook hybrid computer | 14:20 |
| Xteven | hello, does anyone know where I can find openchange packages for evolution under ubuntu ? I would like to try the MS exchange 2007 plugin for evolution | 14:20 |
| d | how do i use garage band | 14:21 |
| knaaa | how can i disable the CONFIG_IEEE8021 in-kernel version? | 14:21 |
| d | what is a kernel | 14:21 |
| mr | no u have to down load it for safedrive.com | 14:21 |
| Pici | !ot | d | 14:21 |
| ubottu | d: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome! | 14:21 |
| d | isnt it a popcorn been | 14:21 |
| sortudo_78 | hwild: i am sure that my router respond to icmp, and my gatway is listed on /sbin/route | 14:21 |
| Slart | hmm.. d seems a bit odd | 14:21 |
| sipior | d: did you just read Finnegan's Wake, by any chance? | 14:21 |
| hwilde | sortudo_78, did you get this from dhcp or did you set static | 14:21 |
| d | im not odd | 14:21 |
| mechdave | knaaa, you need to recompile the kernel, or black list the module if it has been compiled as a module | 14:21 |
| d | I read your mothers diary | 14:21 |
| mborg | I'm receiving this error Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 262144 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 4864 bytes) when running some scripts, however the memory_limit it at 16MB | 14:21 |
| knaaa | ok | 14:21 |
| knaaa | and what is nessasery to do so? | 14:22 |
| knaaa | just gen kernel? | 14:22 |
| Slart | !who | knaaa | 14:22 |
| ubottu | knaaa: 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 :) | 14:22 |
| hdevalence | hey, so I need to redo my ssh keys, but when I try to upgrade, openssh-client, openssh-server, and ssl-cert are kept back... how do I get the fixed versions? | 14:22 |
| knaaa | ubottu ok | 14:22 |
| ubottu | Factoid ok not found | 14:22 |
| sortudo_78 | hwild: i get it from dhcp: every ip that i ping i got unreachable message, unless if i ping loopback ore my won ip :( | 14:23 |
| Slart | knaaa: ubottu is a bot.. but his advice are good never the less =) | 14:23 |
| zetheroo | where is the smb.conf file? | 14:23 |
| mechdave | :) | 14:23 |
| Slart | zetheroo: probably in /etc or /etc/samba | 14:23 |
| hwilde | zetheroo, sudo updatedb; locate smb.conf | 14:23 |
| zetheroo | thanks | 14:23 |
| wols | /etc/samba/smb.conf | 14:23 |
| snk00sj | i am trying to use xen 3.1 on ubuntu server (8.04), but when i try to create a xm, i get a python error : http://www.pastebin.be/11223 => anyone ? | 14:23 |
| knaaa | mechdave please talk on | 14:23 |
| mrichman | There is a ton of disk activity on my machine...how do I know which process is causing it? | 14:23 |
| knaaa | mechdave how can i blacklist the module? | 14:23 |
| mechdave | ubottu, kernel module | 14:23 |
| ubottu | Factoid kernel module not found | 14:23 |
| zetheroo | is there a GTK for changing the workgroup etc? | 14:23 |
| wols | !blacklist | 14:24 |
| ubottu | To blacklist a module, edit /etc/modprobe.d/my_blacklist and add « blacklist <modulename> » to the end of that list - To explicitly load modules in a specific order, list them in /etc/initramfs-tools/modules and type « sudo update-initramfs -u » | 14:24 |
| zimnyx | Slart: yeah, I'm trying to enable verbose logging... | 14:24 |
| Slart | mrichman: I'm going to take a quick guess here.. trackerd? the file indexing thingy | 14:24 |
| sortudo_78 | my network adapter is a realtek 8139, the only thing i could imagine is that it is a driver foult, could it be ? | 14:24 |
| mechdave | knaaa, you need to add the module name to /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist | 14:24 |
| Slart | mrichman: check the system monitor.. it's in system, adminstration. it won't list disk activity.. but where there's disk activity there's usually cpu activity too | 14:25 |
| mechdave | knaaa, but you need to make sure the module exists first | 14:25 |
| hwilde | sortudo_78, sudo ifconfig eth0 down; ifconfig eth0 up; dhclient eth0 pastebin the dhclient output please | 14:25 |
| mrichman | Slart: I see trackerd running, but 0% CPU | 14:25 |
| Chewbaka | irc.quakenet.org | 14:25 |
| Chewbaka | doh! | 14:25 |
| Slart | mrichman: anything else in there using a lot of cpu cycles? | 14:25 |
| sortudo_78 | just 1 minute please !! | 14:26 |
| mrichman | Slart: Funny, it just stopped....ah, the magic of IRC :) | 14:26 |
| Slart | mrichman: hehe.. as always.. might have been the daily "updatedb".. or something else | 14:26 |
| zetheroo | how do I restart samba in the terminal? | 14:27 |
| Pici | zetheroo: sudo invoke-rc.d samba restart | 14:27 |
| mrichman | Slart: it started when I ran Eclipse as root to do a plugin update | 14:27 |
| mechdave | knaaa, which 80211 module do you want to disable? | 14:27 |
| zetheroo | Pici: thanks | 14:27 |
| mrichman | Slart: I think this was the first time Nautilus was started as root | 14:27 |
| dan_ | is there a program hta twill show the system hardware? | 14:28 |
| Slart | mrichman: ah.. that sounds like a probable cause... might have done some initializing | 14:28 |
| Slart | dan_: lshw | 14:28 |
| hdevalence | Can someone help me fix this problem with APT? | 14:28 |
| dan_ | thanks | 14:28 |

| Bagualas | how to change my display driver in hardy?? | 14:28 |
| hwilde | hdevalence, what is the problem, it just hangs there? run "sudo dpkg --configure" | 14:29 |
| zimnyx | Slart: logs says just "530 Login incorrect." | 14:29 |
| zimnyx | some other people have the same problem | 14:29 |
| Slart | hdevalence: doesn't look like a problem to me.. nothing failed.. all seems well... or? | 14:29 |
| zimnyx | bot no solution provided on www | 14:29 |
| Slart | zimnyx: ok.. at least we know the login attempt reaches the server.. | 14:30 |
| zimnyx | Slart: I guess it's pamm issue. | 14:30 |
| mechdave | knaaa, ls -R /lib/modules/2.6.22-14-generic/kernel/net/wireless/ | grep ko | 14:31 |
| Slart | zimnyx: might be some kind of bug if many people are having problems.. | 14:31 |
| hdevalence | hwilde: the problem is that it's keeping back certain packages that I need... The current version of ssh that I need to upgrade is bad ( http://wiki.debian.org/SSLkeys is why ) | 14:31 |
| hwilde | zimnyx, which ftp server? | 14:31 |
| bazhang | hdevalence, what errors you got; did not see any there | 14:31 |
| mrichman | Slart: thanks. | 14:31 |
| halycon | good morning everyone for some reason every couple of reboots my x.org file will get reset and ill get a message saying that im running in a low resolution mode on startup I am able to replace the X.org file with one when it is working but about every 2 resets it keeps changing to the low resolution one. I have a ATI Radeon 8500 AIW(I dont know what driver its using they seem slow though) and a Samsung Syncmaster 216BW monitor | 14:31 |
| Slart | mrichman: you're welcome | 14:31 |
| zimnyx | hwilde: vsftpd, proftpd. | 14:31 |
| Jaymac | my hardy desktop hasn't found any updates in a couple of weeks... | 14:31 |
| zetheroo | Pici: in Gutsy I was able to right-click on a folder in my Home area and share it freely on the network. But with Hardy I cannot do this as I am told there is a Permissions error. Why is this and is there a way to make it work? | 14:31 |
| hwilde | zimnyx, vsftpd is a pain. in proftpd the username is set in the conf file. | 14:31 |
| wibbles | Hello, I have recently upgraded to Ubuntu 8 from 7.10 and since then when I try to open preference windows in gnome applications they take a very long time to load, and the application that i am using hangs. For instance going to edit->current profile in gnome-terminal causes it to hang for about 20 seconds showing the preference window. Has anyone else seen this behavior? | 14:31 |
| Slart | Jaymac: hmm... I've had lots.. are you using the right servers? | 14:31 |
| hdevalence | bazhang: how do I get it to upgrade those packages? When I try apt-get update && apt-get upgrade it keeps them back. | 14:31 |
| Jaymac | it isn't finding the openssh-server update - my generated keys are still week | 14:32 |
| Jaymac | Slart: I'm hitting the UK servers, maybe I'll try the regular ones | 14:32 |
| bazhang | hdevalence, you tried installing them on their own | 14:32 |
| DracoZA | wibbles try it several times | 14:32 |
| Slart | Jaymac: make sure you've checked all the stuff you want in the software sources dialog too.. | 14:32 |
| sipior | hdevalence: try apt-get dist-upgrade | 14:32 |
| knaaa | mechdave i want to disable the CONFIG_IEEE80211 | 14:32 |
| zimnyx | hwilde: Slart: this fixes a problem (/etc/vsftpd.conf): pam_service_name=vsftpd => pam_service_name=ftp | 14:33 |
| Jaymac | Slart, yeah I have all the repos enabled - this is just happening on my desktop and not on my laptop | 14:33 |
| bazhang | sipior, for ssh? what will that do | 14:33 |
| mechdave | knaaa, or better still ls -R /lib/modules/$(uname -r)/kernel | grep ko | 14:33 |
| sipior | bazhang: simple upgrade does not allow new packages to be installed. for example, the new openssh-blacklist package... | 14:33 |
| wibbles | DracoZA, i have tried it several times and each time it does the same thing. I thought at first it could be an issue with dns resolution but all that checks out fine. | 14:33 |
| sortudo_78 | hwild: http://paste.ubuntu.com/12060/ | 14:33 |
| Slart | zimnyx: ah.. good.. never had to mess with that stuff... luckily for me =) | 14:33 |
| sortudo_78 | hwild: DHCPDISCOVER on eth0 to 255.255.255.255 port 67 interval 6 | 14:33 |
| sortudo_78 | No DHCPOFFERS received. | 14:33 |
| sortudo_78 | No working leases in persistent database - sleeping | 14:33 |
| Jaymac | Slart: heh, changed all instances of gb.archive.ubuntu.com to archive.ubuntu.com in my sources.list and now I have 90MB of updates to install | 14:34 |
| hwilde | sortudo_78, ok then you're not connected to the dhcp server. check your wires and the router | 14:34 |
| Jaymac | Slart: guess the main GB mirror is broken | 14:34 |
| Slart | Jaymac: someone's been having afternoon tea instead of checking their servers =) | 14:34 |
| hdevalence | apt-get dist-upgrade seems to have worked.. | 14:34 |
| mechdave | knaaa, then substitute the grep argument for CONFIG_IEEE80211 | 14:34 |
| zetheroo | bazhang: in Gutsy I was able to right-click on a folder in my Home area and share it freely on the network. But with Hardy I cannot do this as I am told there is a Permissions error. Why is this and is there a way to make it work? | 14:35 |
| Jaymac | Slart: ah well, it's sorted now... my SSH key is safe again :) | 14:35 |
| knaaa | mechdave ok i try it out now | 14:35 |
| Slart | Jaymac: good =) | 14:35 |
| mechdave | knaaa, isn't that a kernel argument? | 14:35 |
| dennis90 | Hi, can someone help me? I have an ugly problem with my X server and codebloks. :( | 14:35 |
| bazhang | zetheroo, you been using nautilus as root or other similar behaviour? | 14:35 |
| sortudo_78 | hwild: i am sure that it is not a fisical problem, in windows every thing works fine !!! | 14:36 |
| zetheroo | bazhang: when ?.... with Gutsy? | 14:36 |
| hwilde | sortudo_78, your computer is not receiving any response from the dhcp server. plain and simple | 14:36 |
| bazhang | zetheroo, you talking about samba or other--> nfs, etc | 14:36 |
| zetheroo | bazhang: with Gutsy I could do it without opening gksudo nautilus ..... | 14:37 |
| sortudo_78 | hwild: but if i make o system boot, it will get ip from dhcp ! | 14:37 |
| zetheroo | bazhang: I think I am talking about Samba | 14:37 |
| bazhang | zetheroo, samba or nfs or what | 14:37 |
| bazhang | sortudo_78, this is a dual boot | 14:37 |
| Rafase282 | hello | 14:38 |
| \`slushpuppy`\ | Hiya, could anyone please message me a list of fonts which you like. Thanks. | 14:38 |
| zoobox | is it possible to delete some of the gnome games but not all? | 14:38 |
| sortudo_78 | bazhank, yes it is a notebook with dual boot, windows xp and ubuntu 8.4 | 14:38 |
| bazhang | !fonts |\`slushpuppy`\ | 14:38 |
| ubottu | \`slushpuppy`\: Font installation basics here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FontInstallHowto - No fonts in Flash? Install "msttcorefonts" (from !Multiverse), "gsfonts", and "gsfonts-x11". No fonts in MPlayer? see !MPlayer | 14:38 |
| zetheroo | bazhang: all I would do in Gutsy is right-click on a folder and share it on the network .... and I think samba would be installed automatically from the first time on..... | 14:38 |
| zoobox | hello Rafase282 | 14:38 |
| mechdave | knaaa, If you want to remove the CONFIG_IEEE80211 from the kernel I think you will need to recompile the kernel. That will take you quite some time as it is not a straight forward procedure | 14:39 |
| zetheroo | bazhang: but in Hardy I cannot share my own folders in the Home area in the same way | 14:39 |
| bazhang | sortudo_78, when in windows make sure that that nic is not shut down by windows--seen it happen with that before | 14:39 |
| sortudo_78 | if i boot a debian live cd the internet works fine !!! | 14:39 |
| hischild | i'm still not having much luck in getting internet sharing to work, despite having used the guide from !ics and the links. Firestarter won't work as it complains that eth0 isn't ready, despite that it is. | 14:39 |
| bazhang | sortudo_78, try creating a nother user | 14:39 |
| zetheroo | bazhang: I have to instead open gksudo nautilus and share the folder through there..... any idea why this is? | 14:39 |
| mechdave | knaaa, you need to know exactly what hardware you have. | 14:39 |
| Rafase282 | How are you zoobox?, Do you know how to join a office network with windows xp machines? | 14:39 |
| sortudo_78 | ok i will try | 14:39 |
| Rafase282 | I used to have that OS now I changed to Ubuntu Hardy Heron and want to join my network again | 14:40 |
| sipior | hischild: have you verified that eth0 is the correct interface? | 14:40 |
| Vlet | zoobox: I don't think it is. they appear to all be in one package | 14:40 |
| bazhang | Rafase282, from an ubuntu box or what | 14:40 |
| zetheroo | Rafase282: you need Samba | 14:40 |
| hischild | sipior, eth0 is the correct device, connecting to the router which leads to the local network. Wlan0 is the wireless device which leads to the other network which has internet access. | 14:40 |
| zoobox | Rafase282: what is an "office network" ? (a lan?) and what do you want to do... share files with smb/samba? | 14:40 |
| Rafase282 | it is wifi | 14:40 |
| Rafase282 | wireless | 14:40 |
| zetheroo | Rafase282: you can manually edit the smb.conf file to join a workgroup already present on your Windows network | 14:41 |
| Rafase282 | yes i want to share files, mostly like open their files | 14:41 |
| bazhang | sortudo_78, create another user and see if that works | 14:41 |
| dennda | On ubuntu server 6.06, how do I enable dapper-updates? (that is, what do I put in sources.list?) | 14:41 |
| zoobox | Vlet: how bad... half of the games are nice, but the other half is poo. and my game-submenu is full | 14:41 |
| knaaa | mechdave that is ok ... | 14:41 |
| Rafase282 | since my laptop is not officially part of the office, but since is "my" network and i work with it i need to sometimes open files form one of the pcs here | 14:41 |
| hon | Can I register a domain name, and use a dynamic DNS service to point to it? (Have you done this?) | 14:41 |
| knaaa | can i use this explaination? http://de.gentoo-wiki.com/Kernel_Upgrade | 14:42 |
| Matt1360 | Hi everyone... I'm wondering if someone can help me with a dual video problem. I have an onboard Video Device, and a PCI-E Video device in the machine. The PCI-E Device has priority, but the system becomes unbootable with the device installed. | 14:42 |
| [chr0n0s] | hi, are there any replacements for alt+f2 run application dialogue box?? | 14:42 |
| dennda | [chr0n0s]: gmrun | 14:42 |
| bazhang | hon offtopic for here thanks | 14:42 |
| Vlet | zoobox: use the 'main menu' control panel to remove them from the menu | 14:42 |
| Slart | hon: you can get a free sub-domain using dyndns.org .. if that's what you meant... | 14:42 |
| knaaa | or please, explain me how to substitute the module, may i try it out first? | 14:42 |
| Slart | hon: but this is a support channel.. ask in #ubuntu-offtopic instead | 14:42 |
| [chr0n0s] | dennda, thanks a lot | 14:43 |
| knaaa | the only package i found was 8021q.ko | 14:43 |
| sortudo_78 | an other user got the same message for ping 192.168.0.1 ; destination host unreachable !!! :( | 14:43 |
| hon | Slart: thanks, sorry for the noise (and channel abuse). | 14:43 |
| crazy_bus | I have nothing downloading. But something is taking all my harddrive space really fast (you can watch it sinking lower and lower by the second) Can anyone help me find out what it is? | 14:43 |
| Slart | hon: no worries | 14:43 |
| bazhang | sortudo_78, try and listen-->please create another user or use the live cd to test | 14:43 |
| sipior | hischild: there are two networks here, the external one has access to the general internet, and you're trying to forward a connection from an inner, protected network through to this external one? do i have that right? | 14:43 |
| miickee | I have DVD playback working in Ubuntu 8.04 but the video seems unnatural and player settings don't fix it, I hear it's because linux checks video packets before playing them or something. | 14:43 |
| bloops | I would like to dual boot fedora and ubuntu, how should I partition my system? I want to have a common home. | 14:44 |
| sortudo_78 | ok i will use a debian live cd to test | 14:44 |
| sortudo_78 | ok? | 14:44 |
| mechdave | knaaa, ok then if you add it to the blacklist file then it won't load | 14:44 |
| bazhang | sortudo_78, no use ubuntu cd | 14:44 |
| Slart | crazy_bus: logs? look in /var/log.. or use the disk usage analyzer | 14:44 |
| bloops | how should I partition my system ? | 14:44 |
| hischild | sipior, you're close. there's an external network which has internet access, which comes in via wlan0 on ubuntu. I have a local network to which ubuntu connects via eth0. I'm trying to share internet from wlan0 to eth0, so that others on my network can access it as well. | 14:44 |
| mechdave | bloops, with a partitioner ;) | 14:45 |
| bazhang | gparted or with the installer bloops | 14:45 |
| knaaa | mechdave yes its ok, please give me a line, how i can blacklist the module with substitute | 14:45 |
| knaaa | ... | 14:45 |
| Cypher | bloops: you would essentially duplicate the /boot, /usr, /var and /tmp for Fedora and Ubuntu and keep the /home the same.. | 14:45 |
| Nikunj93 | how to use RESUME ON ALARM in BIOS | 14:45 |
| Vlet | bloops: create 4 partitions, one for each system's "/", one for /home, and one for swap | 14:45 |
| bazhang | Nikunj93, set in BIOS | 14:45 |
| sipior | hischild: have you tried using iptables directly? | 14:45 |
| Nikunj93 | bazhang i ahve set time in BIOS | 14:46 |
| hischild | sipior, my knowledge of iptables isn't sufficient to know how. Also, it would appear that things are more complicated due to a router being in the middle on the local end. | 14:46 |
| Nikunj93 | bazhang: but system not waking up | 14:46 |
| knaaa | mechdave how to "knaaa, then substitute the grep argument for CONFIG_IEEE80211" | 14:46 |
| Nelson_Apart | Can I host a server without a domain name but still the people would able to browse the website? | 14:46 |
| sortudo_78 | bazhang: i tryed with ubuntu live cd, the same ocurs destination host unreachable | 14:46 |
| crazy_bus | Slart: which sort of logs should I be looking at there? | 14:46 |
| Matt1360 | Hi everyone... I'm wondering if someone can help me with a dual video problem. I have an onboard Video Device, and a PCI-E Video device in the machine. The PCI-E Device has priority, but the system becomes unbootable with the PCI-E device installed. With the Onboard video device, it works fine, with minimal 3D Accelleration. | 14:46 |
| Vlet | Nelson_Apart: yes | 14:46 |
| bloops | Ok, is there a need for a separate /boot ? | 14:47 |
| mechdave | knaaa, open a terminal and type sudo gedit /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist | 14:47 |
| Slart | crazy_bus: anything growing.. | 14:47 |
| bazhang | Nikunj93, you got hibernate working or not | 14:47 |
| bloops | apart from the two / partitions? | 14:47 |
| sipior | hischild: where is the router? are the wireless clients not connecting to the nexus ubuntu machine directly? | 14:47 |
| vbabiy-laptop | Hey guys is the ubuntu repos still broken? | 14:47 |
| Slart | crazy_bus: it's the only think I know of that just keeps increasing in size | 14:47 |
| Nikunj93 | bazhang: i have dual boot both XP and ubuntu | 14:47 |
| bazhang | !repomirror | vbabiy-laptop | 14:47 |
| ubottu | vbabiy-laptop: Go to "System", "Administration", and "Software Sources" and choose "Other" from the drop down box. Then choose "select best server" and your system will choose the fastest mirror for you automatically. | 14:47 |
| [chr0n0s] | how do set alt+f2 to run gmrun | 14:47 |
| crazy_bus | Slart: my logs and system files are on a separate partition | 14:47 |
| bazhang | Nikunj93, you got hibernate in ubuntu working? | 14:48 |
| vbabiy-laptop | bazhang: I know that I have and I still get the error | 14:48 |
| Slart | crazy_bus: which partition is slowly growing out of free space then? | 14:48 |
| Cypher | bloops: if you really wanted to keep it simple you'd create just 4 partitions in total..a / for Fedora, a / for Ubuntu, a /home and SWAP partiion..both of the last two would be shared.. | 14:48 |
| bazhang | vbabiy-laptop, then choose another | 14:48 |
| mechdave | knaaa, then add the ko file you found to it and it will not load the module next reboot | 14:48 |
| Nikunj93 | bazhang: also when i i click on Hibernate in UBUNTU a black screen comes with a line written and at the end of that line its written activation failed but then after 15 secs the pc goes off | 14:48 |
| vbabiy-laptop | bazhang: I have chosen like 10 | 14:48 |
| knaaa | mechdave ok, and when i want to add the module, how can i be sure that it will be installed when i emege a new version? | 14:48 |
| Nikunj93 | bazhang: so is this u call hibernate working? | 14:48 |
| crazy_bus | Slart: /home and not slowly either, way faster than my internet | 14:48 |
| bazhang | Nikunj93, then ubuntu does not work? | 14:48 |
| sortudo_78 | Please! some one give me a ligth, i dont imagine what is hapennig here, i have no idea :(((( | 14:49 |
| Nikunj93 | bazhang: | 14:49 |

| hischild | sipior, they are not. Assuming nexus ubuntu machine means the ubuntu server (call it server for the ease of mind), they are not. Both connect to the router on the internal lan. The server connects to both routers, internal and external lan. | 14:49 |

| knaaa | can someone please tell me how to update my portage tree? | 15:14 |
| whileimhere | Slart: Do you think re-booting would put it into the sessions menu? | 15:14 |
| miickee | Ok sound works in movie player. | 15:14 |
| Slart | whileimhere: it is a windows solution.. but I'd at least try restarting X.. | 15:14 |
| knaaa | can someone please tell me how to update my portage tree? | 15:14 |
| miickee | But video is the worst in movie player | 15:14 |
| PythonMan_ | bazhang: I'm talking about it in an gnome environment | 15:14 |
| whileimhere | Slart: okay be back in a few min | 15:14 |
| Slart | whileimhere: ok | 15:15 |
| bazhang | knaaa, please stop | 15:15 |
| rutgermasi | m1r: im brb right now | 15:15 |
| Smusiak | Any one here having problems with Miro and Compiz? | 15:15 |
| no7up4u2 | hi all | 15:15 |
| Slart | knaaa: read what people are telling you... | 15:15 |
| immesys | knaaa: ubuntu doesn't have portage, it uses apt-get | 15:15 |
| knaaa | im on gentoo, how can i update it thereß | 15:15 |
| m1r | rutgermasi: ok, checking line | 15:15 |
| knaaa | ß | 15:15 |
| knaaa | ? | 15:15 |
| yotsuba_ | Crap. I'm having a hard time getting any proprietary codecs onto a ubuntu system that is in no way connected to the internet, and never will be | 15:15 |
| Slart | knaaa: ask the gentoo people? this is an ubuntu support channel | 15:15 |
| STSX | Anybody have experience mapping keys on their keyboard? My "standby" key doesn't do anything, even though it seems to be mapped according to "xmodmap -pke". I can also run /etc/acpi/sleep.sh and prove the suspend function works on my computer. So how do I map my standby key to work? | 15:15 |
| whileimhere | Slart: Umm actully I am going to wait a few minutes. I am ripping one of my cds to my mp3 player. Do you think that a cd rip would go faster in a wm like twm? | 15:15 |
| Iraklis | hi, i am running ubuntu 8.04 and i have a problem with sound. first i hear something and after trying to open other files or anything like that =>>>> NO SOUND | 15:15 |
| Buttercup | I'm on a live cd. How do I get access to root? | 15:15 |
| Viden | dropbear: ok that is weird, there is an admin group showing there, just not in the gui and not listed when you do groups. | 15:16 |
| Vlet | !root | Buttercup | 15:16 |
| ubottu | Buttercup: 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 | 15:16 |
| Iraklis | helpppppp | 15:16 |
| rutgermasi | Buttercup: Why do you need such access? | 15:16 |
| Slart | whileimhere: I doubt it.. it doesn't really use the wm, afaik. unless it's opening, closing, resizing windows while it's ripping =) | 15:16 |
| miickee | Vlet: movie player has very very limited video settings to change, which makes me think I will not use it. | 15:16 |
| rutgermasi | m1r: im back | 15:16 |
| Iraklis | Iraklis: hi, i am running ubuntu 8.04 and i have a problem with sound. first i hear something and after trying to open other files or anything like that =>>>> NO SOUND | 15:16 |
| Iraklis | helpppppp | 15:16 |
| Buttercup | rutgermasi: To forcibly mount my hard drive. | 15:16 |
| Slart | !helpme | Iraklis | 15:16 |
| ubottu | Iraklis: Avoid your questions being followed by a trail of "Please, help me", "Can nobody help me?", "I really need this!", and so on. This just contributes to making the channel unreadable. If you are not answered, ask again later; but see also !repeat and !patience | 15:17 |
| Iraklis | alsa? | 15:17 |
| m1r | rutgermasi: http://www.speedtest.net/result/271261974.png | 15:17 |
| whileimhere | Slart: Ah I see. I did not know that. I just want a really really really light desktop when I work on my graphics and stuff as well. | 15:17 |
| bazhang | !helpme | Iraklis | 15:17 |
| Iraklis | tnx | 15:17 |
| dropbear | Viden: that is weird. so if the gui fails...add the user2 via command line: sudo adduser user2 admin | 15:17 |
| rutgermasi | m1r: What is your internet connection speed (give me upload and download please)? | 15:17 |
| Nikunj93 | how to enter suspend mode? | 15:17 |
| Slart | whileimhere: the wm is just the top layer.. sure.. things might be a bit faster since you have more memory available for your other apps.. but it's still the same system underneath | 15:17 |
| yotsuba_ | So I guess my next question would be: Is there an easy way to install many audio and video codecs to a non-internet connected system? | 15:17 |
| Viden | dropbear: thanks thats what i have done now. thanks again | 15:18 |
| immesys | I'm setting up a high-load samba server. Is there a particular file system that I should use or is ext3 the best? | 15:18 |
| whileimhere | Slart: Any websites on how to improve this? | 15:18 |
| m1r | rutgermasi: 2mbit dsl, i dont know exactly , 220kib/s max for download | 15:18 |
| bazhang | yotsuba_, check out uck | 15:18 |
| yotsuba_ | thanks | 15:18 |
| Slart | whileimhere: you mean cd-ripping? or just linux apps in general? | 15:18 |
| whileimhere | Slart: Just in general | 15:18 |
| crazy_bus | Slart: rebooting to see if that fixes it | 15:18 |
| m1r | rutgermasi: oh, sry, this line is 1 Mbit | 15:19 |
| bazhang | !uck | yotsuba_ | 15:19 |
| ubottu | yotsuba_: UCK is a tool that helps you customise official Ubuntu Live CDs (including Kubuntu/Xubuntu and Edubuntu) to your needs. See http://uck.sourceforge.net/ | 15:19 |

| sivel | Anyone know how to make the trash icon stay on the left with all of the other folder icons when using "cleanup by name"? | 15:19 |
| biabia | my usb flash drive somehow became corrupted, and wont mount. is there a linux way to format/fix it? (also I cant seem to figure out the device name for it) | 15:19 |
| rutgermasi | m1r: You ened not a better connection between your access point and your pc, or do you want to use file sharing within your internal network or do you care about few ms? | 15:19 |
| jderemer | Is there a way to add a menu item, via file (NOT gui) where the other help buttons are under system? | 15:19 |
| bazhang | biabia, fdisk | 15:20 |
| Slart | whileimhere: well.. I would say that adding memory will speed things up much more than tweaking your system can.. kind of like putting stripes on an old Ford.. =) but sure.. there are lots of pages about tweaking your linux system out there | 15:20 |
| Vlet | sivel: don't think you can | 15:20 |
| Rampage | Hi, I can't seem to view/delete sessions from gnome-session-properties | 15:20 |
| STSX | How can I map a key on my keyboard to run a script/command? | 15:20 |
| m1r | rutgermasi: file sharing on netwrok, but is imposible with this speed | 15:20 |
| Rampage | I can only save the current session | 15:20 |
| Iraklis | running ubuntu 8.04 and i have problem with sound | 15:20 |
| sivel | Vlet: yeah that is what I have found so far | 15:20 |
| sivel | Vlet: think I may just remove the icon | 15:20 |
| bazhang | !sound | Iraklis | 15:20 |
| ubottu | Iraklis: If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3 | 15:20 |
| Flynsarmy | Hi. when trying to go to smb://10.0.0.20/C$ it says 'failed to mount windows share'. I've been doing this for days and this is the first time i've gotten the error. Any ideas? | 15:20 |
| whileimhere | Slart: I used DSL on one system and it was great but wouldnt recognize the wireless card just the etho card | 15:20 |
| Slart | whileimhere: you can chose a file system that's more suitable for your usage.... you can remove modules you don't need from the kernel.. or even compile a kernel of your own | 15:20 |
| Rampage | How can I restore the default session like on a fresh install | 15:21 |
| bazhang | Rampage, create a new user | 15:21 |
| Slart | whileimhere: mm.. did the wireless work with ubuntu? | 15:21 |
| Rampage | thanks bazhang | 15:21 |
| Iraklis | i dont have a problem with playing audio and all that stuff | 15:21 |
| JonathanEllis | Hi. Is it usual for the contents or /usr to have root permissions only? I have just upgraded to Hardy Heron so I wonder if this is as a result of that or should it be that way? | 15:22 |
| immesys | Flynsarmy: I also have problems with the C$ share, its actually a special share. Can you access other shares? | 15:22 |
| whileimhere | Slart: Perfectly! | 15:22 |
| rutgermasi | m1r: I dont think its your ubuntu, try searching on google or tweaking your access point by broadcasting it on a different channel | 15:22 |
| Iraklis | i am using alsa mixer | 15:22 |
| Iraklis | i think that its a bug | 15:22 |
| Slart | JonathanEllis: sounds normal to me | 15:22 |
| Flynsarmy | immesys: No. I tried F$ aswell but no dice. theyre just the drive letters on my PC | 15:22 |
| MrBill | I'm looking at perhaps putting a thin client setup into place at home. But I'm not completely sure I understand how it will work, I just want to verify a few things with someone before I start to put the legwork into this. My understanding is that if I take my fastest PC and set it up as the "host" or server for this, that when logging in from a slower machine the programs I'm running will actually be running on the faster machine, and the displa | 15:22 |
| MrBill | y of them simply sent to the thin client machine, is this correct? | 15:22 |
| Iraklis | because if i log out and relogin sound will work fine | 15:22 |
| immesys | Flynsarmy: avoid the shares with $ signs in them, all those are special shares | 15:23 |
| biabia | bazhang: it says failed to mount, cant read superblock | 15:23 |

| dropbear | Flynsarmy: did you change the password on the windows box? is 10.0.0.20 a dynamic or static ip? | 15:23 |
| m1r | rutgermasi: i have 2x AP , both works same, so cant be AP's | 15:23 |
| Slart | JonathanEllis: I have rwxr-xr-x on my stuff in /usr | 15:23 |
| bazhang | biabia, that sounds bad | 15:23 |
| immesys | Flynsarmy: create your own share of a folder or of your C drive but give it a name | 15:23 |
| whileimhere | Slart: There are versions of ubuntu that for some reason work spotty like the 8.04 has some issues with the wireless dropping but the 7.10 is perfect. | 15:23 |
| Flynsarmy | dropbear: Didn't change password, 10.0.0.20 is static IP. I installed hardy updates today which might be the cause of it. | 15:23 |
| biabia | bazhang: is there a way i can format it? its a 4gb flash drive | 15:23 |
| Iraklis | i will try to understand first what i do and it lags and then i will submit it | 15:23 |

| Tyczek | hi... i've got problem with frostwire on hardy: http://wklej.org/id/fb45314c8c | 15:24 |
| Flynsarmy | immesys: Don't know how. Default config is <drive letter>$ so that's hwat i've always used | 15:24 |
| bazhang | biabia, you can do so with cfdisk in the terminal | 15:24 |
| Slart | whileimhere: ah.. well.. seems there is hope then.. perhaps in the next version =) | 15:24 |
| whileimhere | yeah that would be it. I won't bother with 8.04 | 15:24 |
| rutgermasi | m1r: have you tried another operating system as windows? | 15:24 |
| dropbear | Flynsarmy: :) i seem to be having the same problem, just updated a few minutes ago ! | 15:24 |
| JonathanEllis | Slart: And /usr/share/doc? After upgrading to Hardy xsane will only work as root. I am trying to figure out where to change permissions and there is a readme.debian.gz file in /usr/share/doc/libsane but it only has root permissions and I dont know how to extract it at the command line | 15:25 |
| whileimhere | Slart: I think I will be able to re-boot soon. I will tell you when I do. | 15:25 |
| m1r | rutgermasi: yes | 15:25 |
| biabia | bazhang: thanks i'll try that | 15:25 |
| ArthurArchnix | I'm trying to get sounds to play for gnome events, like login, logout, clicks, etc... but they're not working. Sound works fine. I can also play the wav files directly through nautilus. It's only when I try to play them through the sound preferences dialog in gnome, or let gnome try to play them on logout that they don't work. | 15:25 |
| rutgermasi | m1r: because i havent a solution for ubuntu | 15:25 |
| immesys | Flynsarmy: the problem with those shares is that windows creats them with a different kind of authentication. | 15:25 |
| Flynsarmy | dropbear: I can still remove desktop in and use the telnet server. its just samba that seems to be broken | 15:25 |

| immesys | bazhang: Is it a matter of preference or are there differences | 15:27 |
| cyris| | immesys, ext3 has always worked fine for me for samba | 15:27 |
| Slart | JonathanEllis: gz is gzip.. just sudo gunzip filename.gz should do it | 15:27 |
| bazhang | immesys, as opposed to smbfs? cifs seems to be the norm now | 15:27 |
| cyris| | Flynsarmy, hrm ok. Am I typing the package name incorrectly? | 15:27 |
| JonathanEllis | Slart: Thanks | 15:27 |
| Flynsarmy | cyris|: openssh-blacklist | 15:28 |

| Shadu | How can i completely install my nvidia card (with the right drivers) or is this already done when i installed Hardy? (my card is a nvidia 8600M GT) | 16:10 |
| Blinkiz | I want in a easy way be able to move files as root inside nautilus. Does it exist a way? | 16:10 |
| yjlee | Currently, my screen is blank. Reboot keyboard key combination does not work. | 16:10 |
| tactikalnuke | ksbalaji, close the update manager and all other programs | 16:10 |
| Vlet | Shadu: use the hardware drivers admin control panel | 16:10 |
| tactikalnuke | ksbalaji, then open up a terminal and type "sudo apt-get dist-upgrade" | 16:10 |
| niki | Shadu: as far as i know.. rstricted drivers manager should do the trick after the install | 16:10 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Blinkiz running nautilus as root as in gksudo nautilus can be done but is dangerous. If you are needing root all the time, you are probably doing something wrong | 16:10 |
| yjlee | Do I need to turn off the power switch? | 16:11 |
| tactikalnuke | ksbalaji, it wil then ask you for your admin pwd | 16:11 |
| ksbalaji | tactikalnuke : the update manager wont close ! | 16:11 |
| Shadu | vlet: hmm seems its installed, but when i start the config window it errors coz of having no card it says.. | 16:11 |
| tactikalnuke | ksbalaji, open up a terminal window and "ps aux|grep update" | 16:11 |
| Blinkiz | Jack_Sparrow, I don't need it all the time. Its just a few times when doing something in /etc. So it does not exist some switch or key combination inside nautilus to switch between normal user and root user? | 16:12 |
| Joelito | Hi, I'm having freeze problems, using openoffice with firefox, after 1 minute using both, hardy freezes, any ideas why? I've using both apps in gutsy without a problem. | 16:12 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Blinkiz no | 16:12 |
| niki | Shadu: did you google around.. is that card supported..? that M in the name is for Mobile? | 16:12 |
| tactikalnuke | do you see the update manager process running? | 16:12 |
| niki | Shadu: does lspci lis your card? | 16:12 |
| Shadu | niki: yeah its for mobile, and most forums say that my laptop (acer aspire 5920) is highly compitable with ubuntu | 16:13 |

| kenois | :) | 16:37 |
| Jack_Sparrow | niki You will only get about 3.4 of 4 gig if you are running std desktop kernel | 16:38 |
| niki | MrObvious: i use htop and see the memory used by the programs.. but not the amount used by the krnel | 16:38 |

| MrObvious | psychoholic: Try sudo apt-get auto-remove | 16:39 |
| Vlet | r: yes you can | 16:39 |
| psychoholic | nice thanks | 16:39 |
| Dr_willis | r with wine.. you would do a 'wine /path/to/whatever.exe' i dont know of any native linxu half life engines. yet. | 16:39 |

| Jack_Sparrow | Karagandinec Please dont repeat and ask your support question in as much detail as possible | 16:40 |
| niki | Jack_Sparrow: :) ok... just i didnt understand your answer about the 4 Gigs | 16:40 |
| Sivik | r or aptitude install wine | 16:40 |
| Tyczek | hi, previously java was installing with ubuntu-restricted-extras, how to install it now? | 16:40 |
| ksbalaji | tactikalnuke: sure and thanks for going thru it. | 16:40 |
| Karagandinec | ok | 16:40 |
| Dr_willis | whileimhere, i use it under Puppylinux, and Ubuntu for my laptop. | 16:40 |
| whileimhere | Dr_willis: is it in synaptic? | 16:41 |
| Sivik | Tyczek: make sure you have the repo available and then you can install it the same way | 16:41 |
| MrObvious | Sivik: No clue man. | 16:41 |
| Dr_willis | whileimhere, Yes. :) of course | 16:41 |
| the0 | If i install ubuntu on a powerbook (powerpc cpur) will all the applications work? | 16:41 |
| Dr_willis | !info jwm | 16:41 |
| ubottu | jwm (source: jwm): Very small lightweight pure X11 window manager with tray and menus. In component universe, is optional. Version 2.0.1-1.1 (hardy), package size 93 kB, installed size 284 kB | 16:41 |
| Sivik | MrObvious: thanks | 16:41 |
| Jack_Sparrow | niki most people that ask that question have 4 gigs and want to know where the missing ram is | 16:41 |
| psychoholic | lol got it not - in it.... | 16:41 |
| whileimhere | Going to give it a shot. | 16:41 |
| Tyczek | Sivik, ok, i'll try | 16:41 |
| Dr_willis | whileimhere, id perfer it to Twm. :) | 16:41 |
| psychoholic | thanks MrObvious | 16:41 |
| whileimhere | is it nearly as light? | 16:41 |
| r | ok so currently i have hardy live cd so i need a live cd with fluxbox can do something like this?? | 16:41 |
| ron | any one had problems with firefox profies in use | 16:41 |
| MrObvious | psychoholic: You're welcome. | 16:42 |
| r | with the cd i have | 16:42 |
| Dr_willis | whileimhere, to get a twm entry in your sessions, you could just find gnome.desktop and copy/edit it to launch twm. OR you could just not use gdm, and edit your .xinitrc to launch exactly what you want when you do 'startx' | 16:42 |
| Sivik | ron: just create a new profile or make sure firefox is still not running via ps aux | 16:42 |
| MrObvious | Sivik: Sorry I'm not up on pam. lol | 16:42 |
| epoxxy | i dont get any sound from www.youtube.com | 16:42 |
| Sivik | r: no, you cannot install packages onto a live running os, you have to install before installing things like wine | 16:42 |
| niki | Jack_Sparrow: i see. but what has the amount of ram that the kernel sees and can use... with the amount.. tht is actuaaly used by the kernel itseld.. not thhe programs... but ok :) i have seen this 4 gig question in a lot of forums to | 16:43 |
| r | i really cant install ubuntu because i have boot loader other than the normal vesrions | 16:43 |
| Sivik | niki: the kernel is probably not using a sig amount of ram and if you have 4 gb, don't worry about it | 16:43 |
| whileimhere | Dr_willis will I need to also create one for the JWM? | 16:43 |
| ron | done that but cannot find any firefox in use | 16:43 |
| Dr_willis | whileimhere, if you are worrying about the size diff between those 2 tiny window managers... You really need to get to the junk yard and find a better machine. :) both are about as Minimal as they can get. twm MIGHT be a little smaller.. but jwm is about as tiny as one can get and be easially useable. | 16:43 |
| Vlet | r: why do you need fluxbox? | 16:43 |
| Dr_willis | whileimhere, i dident have to. | 16:43 |
| Sivik | r: what boot loader? | 16:43 |
| tactikalnuke | ksbalaji, go ahead and type "sudo kill 5542" and "sudo kill 5911" | 16:43 |
| r | only 256mb ram :-( | 16:43 |
| niki | Sivik.. i have 512... so i care a lot :) | 16:43 |
| whileimhere | okay I have installed it and will log out in a moment and try it. :) | 16:43 |
| epoxxy | any ideas what to do to have sound in youtube at the same time as a mp3-song? | 16:43 |
| Sivik | niki: then where did 4 gb come from? | 16:44 |
| Vlet | r: oh... then running halflife might be... interesting | 16:44 |
| Dr_willis | whileimhere, you do know that the .desktop files for the GDM sessions ONLY get read when GDM starts up (i think) you would need to restart GDM to get it to see any new sessions added. (I think, i may be wrong) | 16:44 |
| === picca_ is now known as picca | ||
| r | its called "secure server boot" | 16:44 |
| niki | Sivik: i didnt ask about this 4 Gig... i got it as an answer.. some misunderstanding on my question | 16:44 |
| picca | does ubuntu desktop come with postgres installed by default? | 16:44 |
| [Lowkey] | Could someone possibly help me install shoutcast? | 16:44 |
| ron | i have 3 profiles that are in use and cannot find clear them | 16:44 |
| Dr_willis | whileimhere, i customize/make all sorts of custom gdm sessions. :) its rather easy | 16:44 |
| Slart | picca: i doubt it | 16:44 |
| tactikalnuke | ksbalaji, after that you should be able to go ahead and type "sudo apt-get dist-upgrade" | 16:44 |
| whileimhere | Dr_willis I will reboot then? | 16:45 |
| picca | Slart: perhaps the server edition | 16:45 |
| Sivik | niki: ok, you want to know how much ram the actual kernel is using, right | 16:45 |
| Slart | picca: perhaps... but it's easy to install | 16:45 |
| pf | whoops | 16:45 |
| niki | Sivik: hom much memory is used by the kernel bythaway.. becouse with 512Mb i do wory.. becouse i dont have any swap.. couse i have Solid State Disk .. not a hard disk | 16:45 |
| picca | okay thanks | 16:45 |
| niki | Sivik: yep.. | 16:45 |
| Dr_willis | whileimhere, or just alt-ctrl-backspace to force X to restart. or just sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart | 16:45 |
| pf | wasn't there a FAQ about having no sound in Flash? | 16:45 |
| Slart | pf: are you using hardy? | 16:46 |
| Sivik | niki: i don't think the kernel uses RAM persay like another application | 16:46 |
| Omnius | In my Main Menu I lost the applications part and cannot get it back, I tried right clicking on it and choosing 'edit menu' but nothing happens, any Ideas? | 16:46 |
| r | when you've helped him inform me | 16:46 |
| r | brb | 16:46 |
| tactikalnuke | ksbalaji, you could also just do "sudo kill -9 5542 5911" | 16:46 |
| pf | Slart: yeah but my sound is fine, someone else had a problem with sound in youtube | 16:46 |
| Slart | pf: ah.. nevermind then =) | 16:47 |
| tactikalnuke | ksbalaji, if the above two do not work | 16:47 |
| niki | Sivik.. then what uses 120MB of memory.. if i ad together al that used by the programs.. i dont even get 60 | 16:47 |
| whileimhere | Dr_willis thanks I will see what happens and report back | 16:47 |
| niki | MB | 16:47 |
| Sivik | what does top say | 16:47 |
| ksbalaji | tactikalnuke ! Great It has started moving. Now I get ..... a lot of stuff .....and=Need to get 12.4MB/524MB of archives. | 16:47 |

| ksbalaji | Do you want to continue [Y/n]? =what to choose please? | 16:47 |
| Sivik | niki: so you have 512 MB and currently only 120MB are being used? | 16:47 |
| Sivik | ksbalaji: Y | 16:48 |
| tactikalnuke | ksbalaji, answer "Y" with a capitol | 16:48 |

| ksbalaji | I have not done this =sudo kill -9 5542 5911 =can I stop the terminal and do it? | 16:49 |
| niki | Sivik: yes | 16:49 |
| Sivik | are you trying to edit the file or what? | 16:49 |
| patty | no just start it | 16:49 |
| tactikalnuke | ksbalaji, nope...no need to do it; that was only if the two kill commands didn't work right | 16:49 |
| niki | and the programs use about 60MB in total | 16:49 |
| Sivik | niki: then i wouldn't worry about it as you still have a nice percentage available | 16:49 |
| tactikalnuke | ksbalaji, but you should be on the right road now :) will there be anything else? | 16:49 |
| eix | how can I specify a packages source that will fetch packages from CD-ROM? | 16:49 |
| Sivik | then the kernel might be using 60 MB, i'm not sure how to go about setting how much it uses | 16:49 |
| [Lowkey] | Dr_willis: Could you help me? | 16:49 |
| megabyte405 | Would any chaos result from having Hardy and Fedora 9 share a home partition? | 16:49 |
| Sivik | eix: /etc/apt/sources.list | 16:50 |
| mr_boo | how do i disable the transparent window feature in hardy (alt+scroll wheel)? | 16:50 |

| tactikalnuke | ksbalaji, "Y" | 16:50 |
| === mia_ is now known as mayo | ||

| niki | i can edit photos with this amont.. but every MB counts realy | 16:51 |
| tactikalnuke | ksbalaji, it's not usually a good idea to allow un-authenticated packages to be installed, unless you know they are good, but in this case, it could just be a missind md5 | 16:51 |

| ubottu | fblade1987: Avoid your questions being followed by a trail of "Please, help me", "Can nobody help me?", "I really need this!", and so on. This just contributes to making the channel unreadable. If you are not answered, ask again later; but see also !repeat and !patience | 16:57 |
| Dr_willis | whileimhere, it just seems faster? :) heh heh. or theres no compiz going perhaps | 16:57 |
| Sivik | niki: because they are very intense and require a bunch of memory and cpu and it seems that cmputer isn't capible of handling it | 16:57 |
| patty | thx sivik | 16:57 |
| patty | anybody else can help on openldap | 16:57 |
| Sivik | yw patty | 16:57 |
| whileimhere | Dr_will: I dont mean the app opening or anything. I mean like load time. | 16:58 |
| jderu | i have a problem plz how can i reset my irc password? | 16:58 |
| niki | Sivik: use photoshop form verion 4.... that time i had a 233 Mhz maschine with 128 MB ram.... so... 900Mhz and 512 should be enough | 16:58 |
| RyanPrior | jderu: /msg nickserv help | 16:58 |
| Jeruvy | how do you remove drivers packages? | 16:58 |
| whileimhere | Dr_willis: Is there a way to run apps in JWM without opening a terminal to execute each one? | 16:58 |
| _moro_bana_ | my vpn connection manager is failling to launch, its giving me failed to execute child process, help | 16:58 |
| Sivik | well, yeah, older versions might work, but that doesn't mean once you start editing a bunch of photos, that the computer is going to be able to handle, thats probably the minimum requirements for the program | 16:59 |
| patty | well i guess not :( | 16:59 |
| tzd | anyone please? | 16:59 |
| Sivik | tzd: if anyone can help, they will respond | 16:59 |
| Sivik | tzd: have you tried searching the ubuntu wiki and google? | 16:59 |
| niki | Sivik: i edit images up to 3700x2000 24bit and its ok. only the undo memory needs some clear sometimes | 17:00 |
| tzd | Sivik: ok and yes, tried that first | 17:00 |
| Dr_willis | whileimhere, this is linux... OF COURSE. :) jwm is very well documented, and its menus are customizable.. and you can add buttons to the 'tray' at the bottom to launch things | 17:00 |
| Sivik | niki: then it sounds like you are fine | 17:00 |
| Sivik | tzd: what was your question, i missed it, i will try and help | 17:00 |
| niki | Sivik: | 17:00 |
| [Lowkey] | Is there anyone who knows how to install shout cast who can help me? :( | 17:00 |
| Sivik | yes niki: | 17:00 |
| Chrysalis | there a way to individualy set /hide join/part/nick for separate channels? | 17:01 |
| niki | Sivik: yes... but it would be better if i hve more.. | 17:01 |
| tactikalnuke | alright...well, I'm off for lunch | 17:01 |
| Sivik | [Lowkey]: please don't repeat, if anyone can help you, they will | 17:01 |
| tzd | Sivik: a UUID issue at boot. The partition mounts but every time i boot up a service menu is being run stating the specified UUID cannot be located | 17:01 |
| Chrysalis | nm | 17:01 |
| Sivik | niki: thats true | 17:01 |
| === jderu is now known as okifedg | ||
| Chrysalis | wrong channel | 17:01 |
| Sivik | tzd: i don't even know what UUID is | 17:01 |
| tactikalnuke | ksbalaji, you should be good, if you have any ?'s just ask the channel | 17:01 |
| Sivik | tzd: sorry | 17:01 |
| whileimhere | Dr_willis what would ever do without you? | 17:01 |
| tzd | Sivik: ok np ;) | 17:01 |
| whileimhere | :) LOL | 17:01 |
| Sivik | niki: have you tried an OS like DSL that might use less memory for the kernel | 17:01 |
| Dr_willis | whileimhere, i would suggest reading docs. : ) like I do. | 17:01 |
| fblade1987 | hey guys i'm on 8.04 and i have a wifi problem, its sort of like the one where everyone seems to have the card showing up at 1m speed, i sorted that out now i have 54m speed but still my downloads seem to be extremly slow | 17:01 |
| Jack_Sparrow | !uuid | 17:01 |
| ubottu | To see a list of your devices/partitions and their corresponding UUID's, run this command in a !shell: « sudo blkid » (see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LibAtaForAtaDisks for the rationale behind the transition to UUID) | 17:01 |
| fblade1987 | for example downloading of rapidshare some files for uni, which are d/l at round 24kbs when if im on window i get around 200kbs | 17:02 |
| niki | Sivik: i am able to work.. but it would be better if i coud run Ooo when i run Gimp.. becouse my colegues send me some information in doc format from some hard to understand reason | 17:02 |
| ksbalaji | tactikalnuke thanks again for your help. I think I have to close this another apt manager for the message =Unable to get exclusive lock | 17:02 |
| ksbalaji | This usually means that another package management application (like apt-get or aptitude) already running. Please close that application first. | 17:02 |
| Dr_willis | whileimhere, jwm uses a rather straight forward layout of its config files theres a example .jwmrc file somewhere you can tweak all ya want | 17:02 |
| eix | Can somebody please help me with this debootstrap error? E: No such script: /usr/lib/debootstrap/scripts/hardy | 17:02 |
| chris___ | nick | 17:02 |
| chris___ | NICK chrislazarus | 17:02 |
| tzd | Jack_Sparrow: i'll try that cmd as well... but I'm pretty sure i have the correct UUID for my partition | 17:02 |
| whileimhere | Dr_willis: Thanks man. I think this will work out for what I want to do. | 17:02 |
| niki | Sivik: yes and had problems with some hardware... like the 800x480 screen, and my wifi adapter | 17:02 |
| Sivik | nik: i'm looking to see if i can find something that will tell you how much ram the kernel is using | 17:02 |
| Sivik | niki: ok | 17:03 |
| Dr_willis | whileimhere, cp /usr/share/doc/jwm/example.jwmrc.gz | 17:03 |
| Dr_willis | /home/username/.jwmrc then edit .jwmrc all you want. | 17:03 |
| Dr_willis | doh.. thats 1 long line. :) | 17:03 |
| kabam | Hi, I'm hoping someone can help me. I am using Xubuntu on a Sony Laptop. Gutsy worked fine, Hardy is having an issue with the scroll wheel on my trackpad. If I scroll up or down, it just keeps scrolling. It will switch my desktops, scroll through tabs, etc etc. The only reference I have found to this problem is the comment here: http://www.progbox.co.uk/wordpress/?p=533#comment-118007 Does anyone have any ideas? | 17:03 |
| niki | Sivik: maybe i do recompile the kernel.. but i am nt expeienced in that... so i would need some help | 17:03 |
| _moro_bana_ | can vpn connections manager be used to connect to windows pptp? | 17:03 |
| Sivik | niki: cannot help you there, what window manager are you using, like kde or gnome? | 17:03 |
| niki | fluxbox | 17:04 |
| Sivik | ok, thats a low ram usage windows manager | 17:04 |
| niki | 3MB memory used on that | 17:04 |
| eml | Hey, I'm trying to use an application which uses MIDI to play some notes, could someone point me in the right direction to getting MIDI output working properly? | 17:04 |
| zpzzlz | are you sending MIDI to a synthesizer? | 17:05 |
| LimCore | which program is like firestarter (gui firewall configure + log viewer etc) but more advanced? the more flexible the better, preferably with option to by hand input some iptables rules if needed | 17:05 |
| tzd | Jack_Sparrow: yes i have the correct uuid according to "blkid" although i noticed a thing that differed. On all my other linux partitions there are this after: "SEC_TYPE="ext2" TYPE="ext3"". On my faulty UUID partition there's only "TYPE="ext3" and not the sec_type... | 17:05 |
| eml | You know, I have absolutely no idea. I'm trying to use a program through Wine which uses midi, that's all I know. | 17:05 |
| eml | That was to zpzzlz | 17:05 |
| niki | Sivik: i also swapped gdm to wdm... to have smaller memory footprint | 17:05 |
| zpzzlz | eml, oh which program. midi worked for me automatically in wine | 17:05 |
| Vlet | LimCore: if you want to get more advanced, you should just learn to control iptables from the commandline | 17:06 |
| tim167 | how do i make a partition 'active' ? | 17:06 |
| drivetrax | tzd -- have you set permissions | 17:06 |
| u007 | hi, is there anyway for us to select the audio output filter for totem? | 17:06 |
| eml | zpzzlz, It's called EarMaster, it's a tool for musicians to train their ears to more easily recognize pitch changes among other things | 17:06 |
| H2OyJaBoN | hi | 17:06 |
| eix | I would like to debootstrap Ubuntu Server Edition. What flavour should I start from? edgy? | 17:06 |
| LimCore | Vlet: I can, but what about the log viewer. plus GUI is more comfy | 17:06 |
| H2OyJaBoN | somebody has a dell xps m1530 laptop? | 17:06 |
| drivetrax | tzd, -- I found a script that can set you up, but it is an indirect way of using a device | 17:06 |
| Jack_Sparrow | tzd Not sure what all has been done so far.. and I am still busy on another project | 17:06 |
| === okifedg is now known as jderu | ||

| * LimCore replaces his computer chair with a sharp wooden sticks | 17:07 | |
| niki | brb | 17:07 |
| tzd | drivetrax: hmm actually I'm unable to create a folder on it so i probably havent :/ | 17:07 |
| stoneDJay | Hi... my firefox simply dont open sites... no one... It was working... | 17:07 |
| zpzzlz | eml, ah so you play MIDI notes on a keyboard and it plays tones? | 17:07 |
| tzd | Jack_Sparrow: ok no worries | 17:07 |
| drivetrax | tzd, uuid needs permissions.. and root | 17:07 |
| _moro_bana_ | my vpn connection manager is failling to launch, its giving me failed to execute child process, help | 17:07 |
| === chaky_ is now known as chaky | ||
| LimCore | Vlet: Im looking for a golden middle solution. like, quickly click the rules from GUI, then tune by hand if needed | 17:07 |
| eml | zpzzlz, Nah, I'm not sure how it works actually as I haven't been able to try it yet. http://earmaster.com/ I think it plays two melodies or something, and you decide which one has the higher pitch or something... and that's one of the 650 exercises | 17:08 |
| drivetrax | tzd -- then sudo and set permissions somehow | 17:08 |
| tzd | drivetrax: i've got this line in my fstab: UUID=XXX /media/sdc2 ext3 nouser,atime,auto,rw,nodev,exec,nosuid 0 2 | 17:08 |
| Sivik | niki: when you do top, hit ctrl-m and it will show you all progrms eating ram, that should help | 17:08 |
| ddgoose | whats that pastebin url again? | 17:08 |
| Sivik | ddgoose: pastebin.com works | 17:08 |
| linkmaster03 | someone highlight me | 17:08 |
| tim167 | how do i make a partition bootable ? | 17:08 |

| BaudXP | I just reboot my machine, and I only get "ACPI: looking for DSDT in initramfs... error, file /DSDT.aml not found" followed by a system hang | 17:08 |
| Vlet | LimCore: http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=iptables+gui&btnG=Google+Search | 17:08 |
| Sivik | tim167: in the fdisk /dev/device, there should be a help to show you how | 17:09 |
| Dr_willis | tzd, if you are going to mount based on UUID, you might want to mount to a better name then /media/sdc2 :) | 17:09 |
| BaudXP | any ideas> | 17:09 |
| drivetrax | tzd -- get to root, then click the device.. if you can see it, and then right click, and try to set permissions | 17:09 |
| LimCore | Vlet: erm, thanks. | 17:09 |
| ddgoose | thanks | 17:09 |
| LimCore | :) | 17:09 |
| tzd | Dr_willis: oh how come? I just use it since it was the only way... well with /dev/... it went crazy | 17:09 |
| tim167 | Sivik: i tried that but it says the partition is of type 'empty', although i formatted it to fat32 with gparted | 17:10 |
| bentob0x | how can you see the packaged you didn't want to update and now ubuntu doesn't offer you to update them anymore? | 17:10 |
| tzd | drivetrax: ok, i'll try that | 17:10 |
| exoide | set hide email on | 17:10 |
| patty | anybody can help with openldap ? | 17:10 |
| Dr_willis | tzd, why give it such a bland name? :) if you where mounting /dev/sda1 to sda1 ok... but that drive dosent have to be sdc2 in fact it may actually be /dev/sdd2 or somthing. | 17:10 |
| tzd | Dr_willis: ah, i get your point... well i gotten used to it now so :) | 17:11 |
| Dr_willis | tzd, call it '/media/DataDisk' or somthing usefull. heh | 17:11 |
| zpzzlz | eml, it looks like that program sends MIDI data. i think you would connect the MIDI out from WINE to some synthesizer to actually hear any sound | 17:11 |
| drivetrax | tzd, -- here is url for Devlabel -- http://techpubs.sgi.com/library/tpl/cgi-bin/getdoc.cgi?coll=linux&db=man&fname=/usr/share/catman/man8/devlabel.8.html | 17:11 |

| fblade1987 | is there away to downgrade my ubuntu version to a 7.10? | 17:12 |
| yandexx | Pici: thanks a lot! | 17:13 |
| Gaudi | BaudXP i think that the hardy heron is not as good as gutsy gibbon | 17:13 |
| Gaudi | is there anyone who knows why the hardy heron doesn't shut down? | 17:14 |
| nikin | back.. i was looking around and as i see the memory used by xserver is not seen correctly by htop... it says 3,7% of 512 wich is about 20MB but the difference between started xserver and no xserver is about 50MB | 17:14 |
| ksbalaji | Thanks friends. I leave now. Again a special thanks to tactikalnuke who has already left - whose guidance I followed for my upgrade to HardyHeron. | 17:14 |
| eml | zpzzlz, Hmm, any idea how to accomplish that? | 17:14 |
| sa125 | Gaudi - I had a similar problem and re-installed the gnome-power-manager... now it seems to be fine | 17:15 |
| tzd | drivetrax: i've just added myself as owner of the drive and now i'm able to create folders etc on it. Will haev to reboot to find out if it really works. Had a quick look on that website as well. Looks really interesting! Thanks for your help so far! brb, rs :) | 17:15 |
| zpzzlz | eml, if you have an external synth you can plug a midi cable into that. otherwise maybe using jack or something you can route the midi to a software synth | 17:15 |
| Vlet | Gaudi, BaudXP: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bleeding_edge ;) | 17:15 |
| zpzzlz | eml, i haven't really tried it myself | 17:15 |
| Gaudi | i'll try it, sal25 | 17:15 |
| sa125 | my problem was that it took forever to start the shutdown down GUI, but give it a shot | 17:15 |
| SuperLag | LVM. Do you have to create partitions *first*, then add them to LVM? | 17:15 |
| Strake | Hey guys - When I run wbinfo -t when setting up pptp I get "Could not check secret" error - anybody know why? | 17:15 |
| nikin | is there any way to get the xserver use less memory? | 17:15 |
| Dr_willis | Hmm.. someone today was trying to update his 'transmission' and i just noticed there is a update to it in the repos. :0 | 17:15 |
| SuperLag | I thought you had to say you wanted to use the entire physical disk for LVM, then create LVs on it | 17:16 |
| SuperLag | but if I say I want to use guided, and use the entire disk for LVM, it creates one large partition | 17:16 |
| ikonia | SuperLag: for lvm using the entire disk is better than partitions | 17:16 |
| SuperLag | ikonia: right, but how do I then keep /var and /home separate? | 17:17 |
| ikonia | SuperLag: seperate from what ? | 17:17 |
| SuperLag | from / | 17:17 |
| drivetrax | superego, has to partition the various folders.. /swap.. must be there | 17:17 |
| ikonia | SuperLag: (I only picked up half your question - sorry) | 17:17 |
| Gaudi | Vlet we talk about a stable release!!! | 17:18 |
| drivetrax | uh SuperLag partition the correct folders.. directories for your OS | 17:18 |

| ms1989 | ok I have a question about wifi in ubuntu 8.04 | 17:20 |

| drivetrax | yaman, from dege .... update it with regular way.. all the way... You will have to read about the Ubuntu update process.. to be able to then UPgrade for gutsy.. or to Hardy | 17:27 |
| ikonia | Fenix|work: yes, correct, he didn't say he wanted everything else | 17:27 |
| drivetrax | er.. from Edgey | 17:27 |
| Jeruvy | If I do a fresh install of hardy, and my home is on another disk/partition, can I preserve that? | 17:27 |
| tyler | hey i shared a drive on a server computer....how do i mount this on my client computer....i can see my smb windows shares but not the nfs share | 17:27 |
| Fenix|work | ikonia, actually I did ;) I said all of ... | 17:27 |
| Fenix|work | hehe | 17:27 |
| ikonia | dj_hamsta: you mean things like cpanel | 17:27 |
| eml | zpzzlz, I installed tidimity, worked out of the box :) | 17:27 |
| ikonia | Fenix|work: I didn't see that, apologies | 17:27 |
| dj_hamsta | ah there we go | 17:27 |
| dj_hamsta | cpanel | 17:27 |
| yaman | drivetrax: thanx | 17:27 |
| dj_hamsta | thats it | 17:27 |
| dj_hamsta | thanks | 17:27 |

| ms1989 | anybody want to help me with a driver problem? | 17:27 |
| ikonia | Fenix|work: remove something that gnome depends on and it will remove gnome | 17:27 |
| zpzzlz | eml, cool! | 17:27 |
| dj_hamsta | grr wait its not cpanel, it was something else that was free | 17:28 |
| eml | zpzzlz, Yep :) thanks! | 17:28 |
| Fenix|work | I want to remove gnome, x, everything. I just want a console | 17:28 |
| ikonia | dj_hamsta: you don't want to use tools like that | 17:28 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Jeruvy yes... | 17:28 |
| ikonia | dj_hamsta: things like that are security issues and mess up your system | 17:28 |
| rinaldi_ | !ask | ms1989 | 17:28 |

| tyler | where do i find my nfs shares? | 17:28 |
| ikonia | dj_hamsta: I don't recommmend any, but ebox is the one that ubuntu is pushing | 17:28 |
| drivetrax | yaman, -- all in Ubuntu forums.. ubuntu community " updating, or ' upgrade from (your current) distro | 17:28 |
| ikonia | tyler: what do you mean, where do you find them ? | 17:28 |
| fblade1987 | hey guys i'm on 8.04 and i have a wifi problem, its sort of like the one where everyone seems to have the card showing up at 1m speed, i sorted that out now i have 54m speed but still my downloads seem to be extremly slow | 17:29 |
| ms1989 | I have a realtek RTL 8187b card and it doesn't work can anybody help me? | 17:29 |
| tyler | well one computer on my network...i typed shares-admin and then shared a drive via nfs....now i wanna acess that drive on a different computer....i can see the smb shares but not nfs | 17:29 |
| mrpockets | 8.04 is the DEVIL! | 17:29 |
| ikonia | fblade1987: maybe the host, maybe the source, maybe your isp, maybe a limitation of the driver | 17:29 |
| ikonia | mrpockets: please don't make nonsense comments like that | 17:29 |
| Jack_Sparrow | mrpockets Not appreciated.. | 17:29 |

| laeg | !firewall | 17:30 |
| ubottu | Ubuntu, like any other linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'iptables' command (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo), or GUI applications such as Firestarter (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE). | 17:30 |

| fblade1987 | is there a way to resolve it then? i have a rt500 wifi | 17:31 |
| ikonia | Dvyjones: firmware for what | 17:31 |
| ms1989 | I can't connect to a wifi network | 17:31 |
| ikonia | fblade1987: as I said it could be one of many things | 17:31 |
| Dvyjones | ikonia: Wireless | 17:31 |
| Jack_Sparrow | tyler repeating, using caps and lol shorthand will NOT get you a quicker answer | 17:32 |
| mrpockets | LOL | 17:32 |
| dj_hamsta | ah! its webmin | 17:32 |
| mrpockets | WOW | 17:32 |
| mrpockets | sry | 17:32 |
| dj_hamsta | i was looking for webmin | 17:32 |
| tyler | haha sorry | 17:32 |
| Jack_Sparrow | !webmin | 17:32 |
| ubottu | webmin is no longer supported in Debian and Ubuntu. It is not compatible with the way that Ubuntu packages handle configuration files, and is likely to cause unexpected issues with your system. See !ebox instead. | 17:32 |
| Shadu | How can i make nm-applet auto start? (tried adding /usr/bin/nm-applet to rc.local but doesnt work) | 17:32 |
| Vlet | Dvyjones: firmware is the software that lives on your hardware. it's not stored anywhere in ubuntu. | 17:32 |
| tyler | frustered | 17:32 |
| ikonia | dj_hamsta: webmin is not a good idea | 17:32 |
| niki0815 | hi | 17:32 |
| dj_hamsta | but i love webmin.. | 17:32 |
| rinaldi_ | ms1989: well does it find any networks at all, is your wireless card detected? | 17:32 |
| dj_hamsta | why bad ? | 17:32 |
| ikonia | Dvyjones: lisr/firmware normally | 17:32 |
| Vlet | Shadu: look at your 'session' control panel | 17:32 |
| ikonia | dj_hamsta: for the reasons I said earlier | 17:32 |
| dj_hamsta | meh | 17:33 |
| tyler | where can i access my nfs shares | 17:33 |
| ms1989 | I don't really know | 17:33 |
| Jeruvy | is there a more comprehensive firewall gui than firestarter? | 17:33 |
| linkmaster03 | how do i switch between windows in retawq? | 17:33 |
| ikonia | tyler: you can mount them | 17:33 |
| dj_hamsta | VHCS? | 17:33 |
| ikonia | tyler: from a remote server | 17:33 |
| Shadu | vlet: ah thx it should work now | 17:33 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Jeruvy firestarter is not a firewall.. it is an iptable manager. | 17:33 |
| fblade1987 | how can i find out what's causing it then? is there any debugging tools that will tell me | 17:33 |
| ZeroA4 | I have a Acer Ferrari 4005 and the card reader is not working but https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LaptopTestingTeam/AcerFerrari4005WLMi say it does! am I missing something ? | 17:33 |

| tyler | ikonia: yes i understand that...where can i access them on my client pc....i go to network under computer and i dont see them | 17:33 |
| rinaldi_ | ms1989: ok, check if your card is finding any access points by clicking on the network icon on the top right panel. | 17:34 |
| surial | This is weird: Since updating ubuntu, samba is no longer turning symlinks into actual links; instead I get a file on os x. I checked smb.conf and there's no follow symlinks = no. Is there something else that might cause this? I checked - the directory linked to is rwxr-xr-x. | 17:34 |
| Jeruvy | Jack_Sparrow: I understand that, but is there anything better? | 17:34 |
| tyler | vlet: yes i can find my smb windows shares but not the nfs ones | 17:34 |
| ikonia | tyler: places --> connect to | 17:34 |

| Draggin | Hi there - I have Sun Java 1.7.0 installed on my system, but it seems I need to have 1.6.0 in order to run an application (Aptana) properly. Could anyone advise me about how to 'downgrade' my Java? Will 1.6.0 be listed in Synaptic, or how do I install it? | 17:35 |
| tyler | vlet: like if u go to networks it will show what drives on other machines in ur network are shared | 17:35 |
| rinaldi_ | ms1989: is it a usb wireless card? | 17:35 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Jeruvy are you trying to do something specific, or is this a Windows HAngover.. | 17:35 |
| Jeruvy | Jack_Sparrow: I've used lokkit. I can also use iptables directly via python. But its not for me :) | 17:35 |
| ikonia | tyler: nfs does not advertise it's self like samba | 17:35 |

| ovidiu | I have a little problem | 17:35 |
| zpzzlz | is MPX going into the next Xorg? | 17:35 |
| ikonia | tyler: you have to tell it where to connect | 17:35 |
| ms1989 | My windows says it's that but it's build in | 17:35 |
| tyler | ikonia: i go to connect to server and nfs is not an option in the service type | 17:35 |
| ikonia | tyler: then install nfs-client package | 17:36 |
| Jeruvy | Jack_Sparrow: I have a desktop to give out and they didn't like firestarter. I don't think my choices are very good so I'm seeking alternates | 17:36 |
| surial | Draggin: I'm not 100% sure but multiple versions of java should be able to co-exist. There is also no java7, there's 'the latest openjdk alpha' which is closer to 7 to 6. But the feature set for java7 hasn't even been decided yet. | 17:36 |
| ovidiu | when I start Ubuntu 8.04, GDM appears. I insert the username and password, and X server restarts | 17:36 |

| luis_lopez | hi all, question: do I have to change my launchpad keys because the recent security advisory? | 17:36 |
| Draggin | surial - okay, that's actually great, since I like to have the latest versions of software, but if I can have an old and a new one in order to make my app work, that's super. But again - I'm not 100% sure how to go about installing 1.6.0... | 17:37 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Jeruvy Perhaps you are not explaining it to them well enough . Most new users are less safe with firestarter or any iptable manager than if they just let the system take care of things by itself | 17:37 |
| klepto | HOW MUCH SPACE DOES UBUNTU NEED TO INSTALL???????? | 17:37 |
| tyler | ikonia: its alread y installed | 17:37 |
| surial | Well, java7 is not 'the latest version'. It's an alpha that might or might not even work. | 17:37 |

| Jack_Sparrow | ha | 17:38 |
| momelod | hello channel | 17:38 |
| ikonia | pici won | 17:38 |
| surial | Draggin: Actually it's a bit more complex than that. java6 is not open source, because e.g. the font renderer and such is licensed from some company that does not let sun licence it for open source. java7 WILL be open source, and the current 'open source' java version is actually the latest java7 (which is a work in progress, not finished), downgraded to java6. | 17:38 |
| ms1989 | nope Only my wired | 17:38 |
| Pici | ikonia: said jack won on mine ;) | 17:38 |
| ikonia | tyler: I'll be with you in a minute | 17:38 |
| Vlet | klepto: my bare system is using 2.3 gigs | 17:38 |

| momelod | i upgraded my ubuntu box, but the nvidia-glx-legacy drivers were not installed and now i have no gui | 17:38 |
| phoenix5002 | can someone tell me how to startup and application on my second desktop not my first one? | 17:38 |
| surial | Draggin: Now, the problem is, I don't actually know what this java7-turned-into-6 version is called. I'd guess its called OpenJDK java6, but perhaps they call it java7. Which would be a misnomer, but I can see how that would happen. | 17:39 |
| Draggin | surial... =-O ummm... okay... | 17:39 |
| surial | Draggin: so, first things first: where'd you get that java7 from? | 17:39 |
| phoenix5002 | can someone tell me how to startup and application on my second desktop not my first one? | 17:39 |
| Larrxi | ikonia: i do "sudo chgrp input /dev/input/mouse0" | 17:39 |
| momelod | when i try to install nvidia-glx-legacy i receive the error from apt: no candidate.... | 17:39 |
| spleencheesemonk | can't backup/restore in evolution. there's no restore option under the file menu in evolution. any suggestions please? running heron after uninstalling and then reinstalling evolution | 17:39 |
| ikonia | Larrxi: udev is restting your rules on boot up | 17:39 |
| Jack_Sparrow | phoenix5002 Please hold off on repeating.. someone will answer if they know | 17:39 |
| Draggin | surial... To be honest... I think the '7' version of Java that I have may have been installed as part of IcedTea | 17:39 |
| === roxahris_ is now known as roxandSLEEP | ||
| ikonia | !away > roxandSLEEP | 17:40 |
| Draggin | Yet, my error log in the application reports that Sun is the vendor of the Java 1.7.0 running on my system | 17:40 |
| surial | ah. So anyone's guess then. There should be an opensource jdk6 version in the ubuntu apt-get universe. | 17:40 |
| fede____ | hi everybody!!!! | 17:40 |
| pinnerup | I converted from Windows to Ubuntu yesterday. All went well. But earlier today several Ubuntu windows greyed out and froze and the whole system became irresponsible so I had to hard power off. Now the icons in the top right and left of windows (the ones used for maximising etc.) have disappeared. What's up with that? | 17:40 |
| Draggin | surial - apparently, according to what I've read, I need the Sun version though | 17:40 |
| rinaldi_ | ms1989: ok before we do anything you need to install ndiswrapper. type "sudo apt-get install ndiswrapper | 17:41 |
| ms1989 | ok | 17:41 |
| surial | Draggin: It is the sun version. Just with the few remaining non-open source bits replaced with their open source equivalents or just stripped out entirely. | 17:41 |
| leif_ | is it posible to run 2 screen | 17:41 |
| Jack_Sparrow | pinnerup those are window decorations /join #Compiz or compiz --replace in a term | 17:41 |
| drivetrax | Draggin, -- in windows, I had three versions of sun java. Just go to Sun website, and see if the java is there | 17:41 |
| fede____ | there's someone that knows how to mount "documents and settings" vista's folder on ubuntu???? | 17:41 |
| Vlet | leif_: yes | 17:41 |
| Draggin | surial - okay. Do you know what that is called then? The naming conventions confuse the living crap out of me | 17:42 |
| surial | Draggin: you're not the only one :) | 17:42 |
| Vlet | fede____: look in your 'places' menu - there may be a drive in there for your windows system | 17:42 |
| surial | Draggin: There's openjdk-6-jre | 17:42 |
| surial | there's also sun-java6-bin. | 17:42 |
| ms1989 | I got an error | 17:42 |
| drivetrax | fede____, if you have root in ubuntu.. you should be able to go to local disk.. of the ubuntu file system, and browse directly to your vista | 17:43 |
| Draggin | surial - because when I go into Add/Remove Programs and search for JDK, what comes up is Sun Java 5.0 Runtime... | 17:43 |
| ms1989 | but I use a 64-bit system maybe that's of any importance to you? | 17:43 |
| fede____ | yeah...that's ok...but everithing is mounted...but i cannot see the things into my vista's forlder... | 17:43 |
| arc_shmoo | can someone help me mount an iso in hardy ive gone through several tutorials and none are working. if this is not the right channel whichh is | 17:43 |
| surial | Draggin: and use sudo update-java-alternatives to see/set the version of java, out of the many installed, to use as a default. | 17:43 |
| Draggin | surial - but if I install openjdk-6-jre, will Aptana automatically know where to find the appropriate runtime? Do I need to get rid of my 1.7.0 Java or how do I set it up? | 17:43 |
| rinaldi_ | ms1989: what was the error about? | 17:43 |
| Draggin | surial... Cool - I think I should write that down quickly... | 17:44 |
| ms1989 | couldn't find the package I think | 17:44 |
| leif_ | is it posible to run 2 screens on 8.04 | 17:44 |
| surial | Draggin: Depends on which method Aptana uses. If it uses webstart, webstart finds javas and follows version restrictions. If Aptana just goes for /usr/bin/java, then you'd have to fiddle with update-java-alternatives. You should set default to java6 anyway, no reason to stick with 5. | 17:44 |
| Vlet | leif_: I told you, yes | 17:44 |
| Ramasdf | hi. | 17:44 |

| ms1989 | ok | 17:45 |
| leif_ | is it just clone screen or | 17:45 |

| Vlet | leif_: twinview, xinerama, clone | 17:45 |
| Ramasdf | how could i connect to ubuntu over the network using ssh | 17:45 |
| Jack_Sparrow | arc_shmoo Start by making a mount point... sudo mkdir /media/mydrive ... sudo mount -t iso9660 -o loop /home/jack/Desktop/KNOPPIX_V5.0.1CD-2006-06-01-EN.iso /media/mydrive | 17:45 |
| Draggin | surial - thanks a lot anyway :) You've been more help than I've been ab;e to find up till now | 17:45 |
| drivetrax | fede____, use the desktop way.. places | 17:45 |
| ms1989 | It's working | 17:45 |
| rinaldi_ | ms1989: while you're at it do "lsusb" and check if your wireless card is there | 17:45 |
| fede____ | drivetrax, i've already tryed it...but it doesn't work | 17:46 |
| Vlet | Ramasdf: you need to have openssh-server installed | 17:46 |
| aliosha | is there a command-line version upgrade code? | 17:46 |
| fede____ | tried | 17:46 |
| surial | Draggin: In this limbo time of java almost but not quite being open source, things are confusing. It's not you. When java7 is the official latest version, ubuntu should just install the one and only java that is relevant. | 17:46 |
| Vlet | aliosha: to upgrade what? | 17:46 |
| jayson | Hello people, I'm trying to debug firefox 3 on hardy last update I have made all steps on https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MozillaTeam/Bugs#head-cb617c5a868b29305181e55fafb049e9fcf89e83 and when i try to debug i receive no debug symbols find | 17:46 |
| ms1989 | things about realtek, but i'm not sure if it's my wireless card | 17:47 |
| tyler | im connected to a gb switch and cat 6 cable and im only sharing files over my network at 40MB/s i dont understand | 17:47 |
| aliosha | Vlet: versions from gutsy to hardy | 17:47 |
| Draggin | surial - can I ask you something else - is there a way for me to make sure that if I remove say the icedtea package, that all the related packages are also removed? I just don't like sitting around with loose ends... | 17:47 |
| rinaldi_ | ms1989: paste the line with realtek | 17:47 |
| Ramasdf | are there any wikis i can look at for ssl | 17:47 |
| fede____ | ok | 17:47 |
| Vlet | aliosha: sudo apt-get dist-upgrade | 17:47 |
| surial | Now back to my issue: When distupdating my ubuntu, samba stopped following symlinks. Instead I get link files which os x is trying to interpret as links to the local filesystem, obviously doesn't work. I checked permissions: that doesn't seem to be the problem. There's no 'follow symlinks = no' in smb.conf, and ubuntu's smb configurator has a checkbox for allow symlinks. | 17:47 |

| surial | Draggin: You'd have to ask an apt-get veteran. You can of course ask apt about icedtea's dependencies and -s up a view of what might happen if you uninstalled some of those. If nothing else is removed, it was a dead end. | 17:48 |
| Draggin | surial, because update-java-alternatives reports that I have java-1.5.0-sun and java-7-icedtea installed | 17:48 |

| zylche | Guys I need help getting libpng 1.2.8 installed onto Hardy, I don't know where to get it for it so that Savage works.. | 17:48 |
| ms1989 | should it work? | 17:48 |
| surial | Draggin: Well, that's good news, seems like the system that lets multiple javas co-exist, and e.g. webstart find whatever java seems the best fit, work. Installing openjdk6 or sun jdk6 should mean you can run aptana, no problem. | 17:49 |

| rinaldi_ | tacit: well I only allow things higher privileges if I want it to, otherwise any app I install could be messing with things I don't want it to | 18:21 |
| L2L | ikonia i am on hardy i want to go back to gutsy | 18:22 |
| esox | jaffarkelshac: well it doesnt solve my install issue | 18:22 |
| wols | rmnboss: set options like your umask=, uid= and gid= correctly when mounting from commandline | 18:22 |
| tacit | rinaldi_: This is what the root account is for. | 18:22 |
| wols | L2L: reinstall | 18:22 |
| ikonia | L2L: then you need to do a re-install | 18:22 |
| ikonia | L2L: thats the only way | 18:22 |
| Pici | !sudo | tacit | 18:22 |
| ubottu | tacit: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more information. | 18:22 |
| rmnboss | wols: uid=my id? and what is umask? | 18:22 |
| L2L | k so burn to disk is only way to reinstall? | 18:22 |
| markf | basvg: tell me if you can't get your footage on ur handdisk with Kino | 18:22 |
| ikonia | L2L: its the most staight forward | 18:22 |
| eza_emyu | #purwokerto | 18:22 |
| L2L | kk | 18:22 |
| wols | umask is the default chmod set. see the man mountpage for it | 18:22 |
| L2L | thanks | 18:22 |
| ms1989 | rinaldi_: nothing with iwconfig and ifconfig | 18:23 |
| rmnboss | wols: thanks. | 18:23 |
| tacit | Well sudo certainly moves the security boundary to the desktop. Sad. | 18:23 |
| ms1989 | rinaldi_ : with sudo before it ofcourse | 18:23 |
| no7up4u2 | hi all , how do u open a .bin archived? | 18:23 |
| Pici | tacit: Do you have a support question? Or anything constructive to contribute here? | 18:23 |
| tacit | Yet another program not used for it's intended purpose. | 18:23 |
| basvg | markf: allright, thanks I'll give it a go | 18:23 |
| wols | no7up4u2: you find out what file it actually is. ".bin" is utterly meaningless | 18:23 |
| bobboy | Hello Ubuntu community :D, I am having a little noobish problem with updating and was wondering if someone would be able to answer a couple questions? | 18:23 |
| ms1989 | rinaldi_: os what now? | 18:24 |
| wols | no7up4u2: file file.bin | 18:24 |
| rinaldi_ | ms1989: ok, right click on the network icon and make sure wireless is checked, then click once on it and see if it searches any points | 18:24 |
| wols | ms1989: /sbin/ifconfig WILL ALWAYS output something or you have an utterly broken system | 18:24 |
| m1r | bobboy: !ask | 18:24 |
| Pici | bobboy: Just ask ;) | 18:24 |
| markf | basvg: good luck. you can also export your footage as mp4 in Kino which is cool... | 18:24 |
| bobboy | ok lol | 18:24 |
| bobboy | here goes | 18:24 |
| ms1989 | wols : I don' t now | 18:25 |
| nekkidtruth | Hello everyone :) Just a quick question, which version of gnome does Ubuntu 8.04 use? | 18:25 |
| basvg | markf: sounds like what I want... mp4, and the flashy stuff that youtube also uses. | 18:25 |
| no7up4u2 | i dont think the file name is relevant, i just want to know what app can open it | 18:25 |
| wols | ms1989: ^pastebin your full written command and ALL output that eappears then | 18:25 |
| tacit | nekkidtruth: Distrowatch has a nice listing of versions. | 18:25 |
| tim167 | hi, i followed the instructions on https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LiveUsbPendrivePersistent but it doesnt work, i slected 'removeable device' in bios boot sequence...can anyone help ? | 18:25 |
| Pici | nekkidtruth: 2.22 | 18:26 |
| wols | no7up4u2: I told you: no one can know what a "bin" file actually is since that extension is meaningless. both CD isos and BIOS firmware upgrades have it for example | 18:26 |
| jayson | Hello people, I'm trying to debug firefox 3 on hardy last update I have made all steps on https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MozillaTeam/Bugs#head-cb617c5a868b29305181e55fafb049e9fcf89e83 and when i try to debug i "receive no debug symbols found". Can you help me ? How to make this debug ? | 18:26 |
| ikonia | jayson: the binary has been stripped | 18:26 |
| ms1989 | wols : a second first i'll try something runaldi has said to me | 18:26 |
| Rachel84 | Hi, can someone please point me in the right direction solving an mdadm problem? I have two USB HDDs used in an mdadm config. Everything works fine if these are the only two discs plugged in at boot. If I have a third USB HDD plugged in during boot mdadm fails. I assume my answer lies somewhere in udev, but I'm not sure how to configure mdadm to use this. Can anyone help? | 18:26 |
| wols | no7up4u2: and I told you a way to find out what kind of file it is | 18:26 |
| markf | basvg: yes, you can also export it also a flv file. i've made a youtube file but youtube compressed it. i think, i have to use the right relolution so youtube won't touch it. | 18:26 |
| jayson | ikonia: I'm using gdb /usr/lib/firefox-3*/firefox 2>&1 | tee /tmp/gdb-firefox.txt | 18:26 |
| nekkidtruth | Thanks Pici :) | 18:26 |
| _paradox_ | ok can i get a little help now? | 18:26 |
| no7up4u2 | ah k mistread that wols | 18:26 |
| no7up4u2 | my bad | 18:27 |
| no7up4u2 | :) | 18:27 |
| nekkidtruth | I wasn't able to find it on the website. Or I'm blind ;) | 18:27 |
| ihcus | hi ppl....guys i messed my gnome-power manager ...there is no restart button or shutdown button ....can anyone help me please | 18:27 |
| ms1989 | rinaldi_: where do I check this box | 18:27 |
| rinaldi_ | ms1989: wols knows more about ifconfig than me. it won't work. I decided to ignore for now but it is rather strange ifconfig gives nothing | 18:27 |
| ikonia | jayson: that doesn't change the fact the binary has been stripped | 18:27 |
| ikonia | Rachel84: what is the error | 18:27 |
| wols | ms1989: try ifconfig -a | 18:27 |
| ikonia | Rachel84: what level raid, what version of ubuntu | 18:27 |
| jayson | ikonia: What can I do to debug ? | 18:27 |
| bobboy | i want to get used to the command line so i looked up some instructions on upgrading packages with apt.. so i did sudo apt-get update and sudo apt-get upgrate.. my problem is i am getting different outputs using apt and using the GUI Update Manager.. apt says i need to upgrade 6 packages and is holding back on ssl-cert, gets 13.5MB and after the operation 4096B disk space will be freed. UpdateManager says i need to ins | 18:27 |
| basvg | markf: I've fired up kino, hooked up my handycam.... err... now what ;-) I don't see an 'import' button or anything | 18:27 |
| ikonia | jayson: install deubgging symbols package on the binary (assuming there is one) | 18:27 |
| m1r | ihcus, run gcnof-editor and search for restart would be my guess | 18:27 |
| Rachel84 | The disc doesn't mount; when I try to manually mount it with mount -a, it tells me wrong fs type. If I then unplug the third USB disc and reboot, everything comes up just fine. | 18:28 |
| markf | hi people, which settings do you recommend to use for ffmpeg to make the "perfect looking" youtube file (MP4 H.264 codec) | 18:28 |
| ms1989 | wols : nothing | 18:28 |
| m1r | bobboy apt-get dist-upgrade | 18:28 |
| ihcus | m1r: do i have to run it in terminal? | 18:28 |
| ikonia | Rachel84: well, none of that is what I asked | 18:28 |
| wols | ms1989: I asked you for a pastebin. I want that pastebin still | 18:28 |
| m1r | ihcus alt+f2 | 18:28 |
| no7up4u2 | wols, ARJ archive data, v6, slash-switched, original name: NML.ARJ, os: MS-DOS | 18:28 |
| bobboy | m1r: im in hardy heron | 18:28 |
| At0x0 | When I click the logout (top right) icon on hardy heron, my system locks up for a solid minute before it appears. I can't click anything, switch windows, etc. Oddly, nothing is pegged (cpu,ram,net,load,hdd,etc). Any ideas? | 18:28 |
| ikonia | Rachel84: 1.) boot with the 3rd disk in, check with mdadm the status of the array, try to start the array | 18:28 |
| ms1989 | wols : what's a pastbin | 18:28 |
| Rachel84 | It's a raid0 on the latest version of Ubuntu. | 18:28 |
| ikonia | Rachel84: 2.) look at your mdadm concig | 18:28 |
| wols | ms1989: and additionally I want the output of ls -l /etc/network/interfaces and cat /etc/network/interfaces | 18:28 |
| Pici | !paste | ms1989 | 18:28 |
| ubottu | ms1989: 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) | 18:28 |
| wols | !paste | ms1989 | 18:29 |
| seyacat | Hi ubuntuers, pelase help me | 18:29 |
| ikonia | Rachel84: raid0 --, why why why are you using raid0 on usb disks | 18:29 |
| jayson | ikonia: i have installed firefox-3.0-dbgsym xulrunner-1.9-dbgsym libgtk2.0-0-dbg libnss3-0d-dbgsym libnspr4-0d-dbg libpango1.0-0-dbg libcairo2-dbg libc6-dbg | 18:29 |
| markf | basvg: you need to fire Kino up as sudo kino in the terminal or u need to change some permissions. otherwise ubuntu won't let you access the handycam. | 18:29 |
| m1r | bobboy , try this command> apt-get update && apt-get dist-upgrade | 18:29 |
| ikonia | jayson: that looks good | 18:29 |
| Rachel84 | Why why why not? | 18:29 |
| basvg | okidoki, trying | 18:29 |
| wols | Rachel84: for some reason or other the additional hdd ight screw with assigned device names via udev | 18:29 |
| ihcus | m1r:i opened the gconf-editor | 18:29 |
| TheName | whats the best way to secure my system | 18:30 |
| jayson | ikonia: after installed that, i cannot debug yet, i receive "no debuging symbols found" | 18:30 |
| ikonia | Rachel84: because usb disks are slow slow slow, so the fantasy performance people think they get from raid0 is even less likley to happen on usb, and if any disk has errors you hole file system is unusable | 18:30 |
| ihcus | but i cannot find restart on it | 18:30 |
| wols | !harden | 18:30 |
| ubottu | Factoid harden not found | 18:30 |
| m1r | ihcus , search for restart or shutdown | 18:30 |
| tacit | TheName: Don't connect it to the internet. | 18:30 |
| markf | basvg: just leave ur handy cam connected and on to the firewire connection | 18:30 |
| ikonia | jayson: I would expect a different biary with that package, but I don't know, I've not tried it myself | 18:30 |
| wols | TheName: the question is "secure it from what or who"? | 18:30 |
| Rachel84 | I'm not after performance. What I need is a filesystem that provides a single mount point and which I can extend by adding other USB discs when needed. | 18:31 |
| basvg | markf: i have it on usb | 18:31 |
| gverig | I have something weird with sound on my laptop (running 8.04). Example: Flash locks sound (eitehr flash can play sounds or XMMS). Currently, Miro somehow killed all the sound (nothing makes no sounds at all)- two questions: 1) any idea what causes this (suspicion- different sound managers used by different programs, and locking out dsp or something like that) , 2) how can I analyze why sound is gone now (so that I at least don't have to reboot every time)? | 18:31 |
| seyacat | I dont know what happens with ... but GDM can start any session, when i try with startx i have permision problem with dev/null, to make it works i give permisions to null random and u random , but not all works fine , and this permissions change again at boot, what can i do | 18:31 |
| marcules | hi^^ | 18:31 |
| jayson | ikonia: that make a new binary /usr/lib/debug/firefox*/firefox | 18:31 |
| palbuddy | Hi! I'm a newbie! Whenever I copy something from a CD to my hard drive the files show up as locked, how can I prevent this?! | 18:31 |
| palbuddy | thanks in advance :) | 18:31 |
| wols | Rachel84: that's not raid but lvm2 | 18:31 |
| ikonia | Rachel84: well raid0 is not what you want then | 18:31 |
| ikonia | Rachel84: you want lvm | 18:31 |

| docgnome | is there no php4-cli packages for hardy? | 18:31 |
| basvg | and it appears to be mounted on /media/disk | 18:31 |
| tacit | palbuddy: chmod u+w <files> | 18:31 |
| hwilde | TheName, you'll be allright. don't worry | 18:31 |
| spleencheesemonk | please please please can somebody help me. i'm logged into hardy but nothing comes up at all but the backdrop. no menus, nothing. the only way i've managed to load pidgin is by putting in a usb stick which it recognizes, then using that window to search for the application. anyone any ideas why none of my menu bars or anything are loading? if i middle click my mouse button, the desktop cube works, but there's nothing else! :o | 18:31 |
| wols | palbuddy: check the permissions of the files. "ls -al <filename>" | 18:31 |
| markf | basvg: that's no problem. you would be able to mount it now.. | 18:31 |
| wols | palbuddy: to see who owns it with what premissions | 18:31 |
| wols | !permissions | palbuddy | 18:31 |
| ubottu | palbuddy: 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 | 18:31 |
| palbuddy | is there any way to do this in gnome wols? | 18:31 |
| ihcus | m1r:i couldnt find restart or reboot | 18:31 |
| palbuddy | okay I'll go to that website | 18:32 |
| palbuddy | thanks | 18:32 |
| markf | basvg: do you have a firewire port on the handy cam? | 18:32 |
| wols | palbuddy: I'm sure nautilus can look at it but I dunno how since I don't use it | 18:32 |
| Rachel84 | Okay, the other problem is I have 1TB of stuff already on the RAID0 and nowhere else to put it while I move things around. :-/ | 18:32 |
| ihcus | m1r:i found only shutdown and dont know what to do with it | 18:32 |
| bobboy | m1r: k they both give the same package results and vary in size only by about 800kb.. one other problem is why is it trying to install an update for transmission when i uninstalled it and am using qBitTorrent? | 18:32 |
| markf | basvg: i used a firewire cable to import the footage though... | 18:32 |
| Peng | What did the new new OpenSSH changes on Hardy, err, change? | 18:32 |
| ikonia | Rachel84: thats not a problem we can help with | 18:32 |
| hwilde | Rachel84, I strongly advise you to buy more harddrives... | 18:32 |
| ikonia | Peng: fixed a security issue | 18:32 |
| seyacat | help me i have problems with permisions of /dev/null random and urandom, i can change, but puts wrong again at boot | 18:32 |
| basvg | markf: my pc doesnt have firewire | 18:32 |
| wols | Peng: it has a non explouitable RNG (hopefully) | 18:32 |
| ikonia | seyacat: thats udevb | 18:32 |
| TheName | but i got to worry. in order to do what "TheName" does i have to know how to prevent it | 18:32 |
| ikonia | seyacat: udev | 18:32 |
| Pici | !libsslbug | Peng | 18:32 |

| ms1989 | wols : I don't really now what you mean | 18:33 |
| docgnome | are there no php4 packages for hardy? | 18:33 |
| gverig | spleencheesemonk: haven't seen this but switch to text mode (Ctrl-Alt-F1 I think... not sure) and check logs (X logs especially) | 18:33 |
| Peng | Guys, I know that. I already upgraded once today; why is there another new version? | 18:33 |
| wols | ms1989: and I don't know what you talk baout | 18:33 |
| seyacat | ikonia: udev, its a command? a conf file | 18:33 |
| ikonia | seyacat: it's a daemon that creates device files | 18:33 |
| spleencheesemonk | gverig - i'm not competant with cli. :( | 18:33 |
| markf | basvg: how do you normally import ur footage, is it with the usb cable? what brand handycam do you have. is it Sony? | 18:33 |
| wols | I told you what a pastebin is and ubottu told you how to use it and I gave you very specific commands you only have to type in as given | 18:33 |
| ms1989 | wols : the iwconfig that didn't give anything | 18:33 |
| wols | so what's the problem? | 18:33 |
| seyacat | mmmm,, ty ikonia let me see | 18:33 |
| basvg | markf: jeah it is sony... an dthis is the first time ... | 18:34 |

| TheName | i want to join a network security team or at least start one anyone interested | 18:34 |
| wols | ms1989: I ask you for the LAST time. I want pastebin entries of your terminal. copy+paste it. until then: goodbye | 18:34 |
| bobboy | m1r: ok | 18:34 |
| gverig | spleencheesemonk: Then you have a problem. As much as I would love to give linux it's props you still need to be able to use cli is you want ot use it | 18:34 |
| tacit | spleencheesemonk: man intro | 18:34 |

| markf | basvg: i have a Sony miniDV handycam. what do you see in Kino? | 18:35 |
| corrosione | did i miss the machine that hands out the number tickets? | 18:35 |
| spleencheesemonk | looks like a reinstall then? :( | 18:35 |
| ikonia | Rachel84: no | 18:35 |
| hwilde | TheName, you need to google "hardened" systems and figure out how to configure iptables and a firewall and shut off all the ports etc etc | 18:35 |
| wols | TheName: ubuntu already has a security but from the questions you ask you probably have to learn quite a bit still before you become useful for them | 18:35 |
| Rachel84 | Okay, can you recommend an introduction doc for LVM2? | 18:35 |
| ikonia | Rachel84: raid0 will not allow it | 18:35 |

| gverig | spleencheesemonk: you can try that... you can try "repair" from the CD but overall I would really recommend getting at least somewhat familiar with cli. It's not scarry, you'd just need few commands- ls, cd, rm, mv, sudo, vi- just enough to shoot yourself in the foot :) | 18:36 |

| wols | novato_br: I told you what you can do | 19:10 |
| wols | GnomeBoy: ^^ | 19:10 |
| Pici | bobboy: I always use dist-upgrade | 19:10 |
| tds5016 | anyone know what extension I need to get compiz to act like expose on a mac? | 19:10 |
| bobboy | Thankyou Pici and wols | 19:10 |
| Flannel | bobboy: dist-upgrade, for instance, will pull in new kernel versions (since the new kernel actually changes package names, due to the version number) | 19:10 |
| tds5016 | where I move to one corner of the screen and all fo the windows scale down, and you click on the window t choose it. | 19:11 |
| GnomeBoy | i really nee my wireless network card | 19:11 |
| neuromancer | tds5016: ctrl+E | 19:11 |
| jamiejackson | GnomeBoy, what's the model, again? | 19:11 |
| wols | tds5016: http://www.google.com/search?q=expose+for+compiz | 19:11 |
| bobboy | before i go can someone promise to also give a thanks to m1r???... k thankyou Flannel | 19:11 |
| bazzieb | on the install page it said i need to browse http://127.0.0.1:3000 but nothing seems to happening? | 19:11 |
| GnomeBoy | jamiejackson, 10:00.0 Network controller: Broadcom Corporation BCM94311MCG wlan mini-PCI (rev 02) | 19:11 |
| timboy | GnomeBoy, unfortunately this is one of the large failings of linux... | 19:12 |
| jamiejackson | i've got v1 of that card, and the restricted drivers didn't work for me. here's my wiki tho: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx/Feisty_No-Fluff | 19:12 |
| jamiejackson | it's ndiswrapper instructions for bcm43xx cards | 19:12 |
| tds5016 | I think there's an extesion called expose in compiz.... | 19:12 |
| NetWrm | hiya all | 19:12 |
| tds5016 | I am looking for the one that acts like the mac expose. | 19:13 |
| * NetWrm finally decided to try ubuntu | 19:13 | |
| GnomeBoy | jamiejackson, are there any disadvantages ? | 19:13 |
| neuromancer | recently turned on my machine to find both xp and ubuntu had ceased working. put it down to a faulty power supply that keep corrupting my HDD's with bad sectors (5th hard drive in 2 years)... i get a DRDY UNC error. = drive not ready to read, and uncorrectable error. is there anyway to salvage my system without reformatting? - I have all my data backed up! ;) | 19:13 |
| Pici | tds5016: expo perhaps, ask in #compiz-fusion for more specific configuration | 19:13 |
| neuromancer | tds5016: ctrl+E | 19:13 |
| jamiejackson | only advantages, GnomeBoy ndiswrapper is faster than native drivers, but harder to set up | 19:13 |
| bazzieb | Netwrm you from SA?? | 19:13 |
| NetWrm | oh yeah | 19:13 |
| timboy | tds5016, not too sure what expose is... is that the one where it shoes all the current open windows? | 19:13 |
| NetWrm | cape town | 19:13 |
| neuromancer | tds5016: super + E even sorry! | 19:13 |
| NetWrm | heh | 19:13 |
| bazzieb | sweet | 19:13 |
| bazzieb | Jozie myself | 19:13 |
| neuromancer | tds5016: is it where it zooms out to show 4 desktops? | 19:13 |
| NetWrm | ahaa cool | 19:13 |
| jamiejackson | if you do the wiki, GnomeBoy, pastebin your lsmod before starting | 19:13 |
| NetWrm | very cold here tonight | 19:13 |
| tds5016 | nope. | 19:13 |
| GnomeBoy | jamiejackson, i read that ndiswrapper will be removed with kernel 2.6.25.X | 19:13 |
| tds5016 | I'm looking for the one that shows all open windows. | 19:14 |
| crd1b | d[X_X]b: communication between processes; exactly what it sounds like | 19:14 |
| bazzieb | not to bad here | 19:14 |
| tds5016 | timboy yes. | 19:14 |
| neuromancer | tds5016: with a mouse movement to top right? | 19:14 |
| jamiejackson | what do you mean "removed" GnomeBoy? | 19:14 |
| wols | GnomeBoy: it's kinda in limbo. will be in .26 for example | 19:14 |
| tds5016 | or the bottom right.... | 19:14 |
| tds5016 | as I'd like to set it, but yes. | 19:14 |
| neuromancer | tds5016: its under scale you need to set the binding. | 19:14 |
| wols | but the solution is a bad one yes (ndiswrapper) | 19:14 |
| timboy | tds5016, it's called scale and is installed by default. If you install compizconfig-settings-manager then you can configure bindings | 19:14 |
| Pici | tds5016: Like I said, join #compiz-fusion for specific plugin help. | 19:14 |

| tds5016 | I was looking for one where I could move it to a corder... | 19:14 |

| tds5016 | where's the corners option? | 19:15 |
| neuromancer | bindings | 19:15 |
| ms1989 | wols : I used this how-to " https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/NdiswrapperOnAMD64 " and had this terminal " The update-modules command is deprecated and should not be used!" (about the realtek wifi card) | 19:15 |

| GnomeBoy | jamiejackson, http://paste.ubuntu.com/12101/ | 19:17 |
| neuromancer | tds5016: google is your friend. or there is a dedicated channel for your issue | 19:17 |
| bazzieb | could any1 help me as too why my ntop is not working in my browser? | 19:17 |
| wols | ms1989: there is no "update modules" in that howto | 19:18 |
| evil_tech | how do you reconfigure the xserver from command line? sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg doesnt seem to work anymore | 19:18 |
| neuromancer | is there a way to detect and isolate bad sectors and salvage a system that won't load that has been afflicted in ubuntu? | 19:18 |
| wols | evil_tech: it does | 19:18 |
| ms1989 | wols : I can see a wirreless option now, but how do I seek for a wifipoint | 19:18 |
| wols | evil_tech: if you are root (sudo) | 19:18 |
| evil_tech | not like it use to | 19:18 |
| evil_tech | only enables framebuffer and keyboard options | 19:18 |
| wols | neuromancer: install smartmon-tools. let it do a long test | 19:18 |
| tds5016 | that's not under scale in ccsm. | 19:18 |
| neuromancer | I have an error message that contains ata1.00: status {DRDY} | 19:19 |
| wols | evil_tech: -plow then as an option | 19:19 |
| tds5016 | there it is! | 19:19 |
| tds5016 | thanks!!! | 19:19 |
| dan | how do i get to a non x terminal in ubuntu? | 19:19 |
| jamiejackson | GnomeBoy: your hardy fix should be the same as mine, according to your lsmod. when you get to the hardy bug fix section, do this instead http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=4931090&postcount=582 | 19:19 |
| neuromancer | wols: use this from a livecd? | 19:19 |
| wols | neuromancer: buy a new disk, NOW. seriously | 19:19 |
| neuromancer | wols: this is a new disk | 19:19 |
| dan | need ot install adiriver without x running | 19:19 |
| sa125 | need help - I've tried reparing the gnome-power-manager by apt-get remove and then install, and now my system won't get past the login screen (Ubuntu 8.04) | 19:19 |
| wols | neuromancer: sure, knoppix has it installed by default for example | 19:19 |
| neuromancer | wols: I've been through 5 recently | 19:19 |
| simNIX | jamie: Ctrl_Alt+Fx | 19:19 |

| neuromancer | wols: this I think is more a dodgy power supply issue that is affecting the disks | 19:19 |
| wols | InforMed: doing what? | 19:19 |
| neuromancer | wols: it is very old and perhaps under powered | 19:19 |
| wols | neuromancer: unlikely | 19:20 |
| mcphail | dan: Ctrl-Alt-F2, login then "sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop" | 19:20 |
| neuromancer | wols: it can't be that all my drives are faulty?! | 19:20 |
| wols | underpowered PSUs crash your PC, they don't kill hdds | 19:20 |
| jetsaredim | anyone know where these rsa blacklist files are generated from? | 19:20 |
| MasseR | Is there a way to disable the emergency x server? | 19:20 |
| dan | is there a way to get to a termina without-----cooo thanks | 19:20 |
| wols | neuromancer: it can be your case is 50°C+ | 19:20 |
| MasseR | It breaks everything | 19:20 |
| neuromancer | wols: it hasn't killed it but it corrupts the system and creates bad sectors | 19:20 |
| wols | neuromancer: a bad sector is a borken disk | 19:20 |
| neuromancer | wols: no temp is not too high | 19:20 |
| MasseR | I was trying to get two monitors working, but whenever I had faulty xorg.conf it broke everything | 19:20 |
| neuromancer | wols: bad sectors can sometimes be fixed by low-level formatting can't they? | 19:20 |
| wols | MasseR: simply restart your X server | 19:21 |
| enjahova | when is the next hardy heron update? will it include the full version of FF3? | 19:21 |
| MasseR | wols: Won't listen to me | 19:21 |
| MasseR | It doesn't listen to any keyboard commands | 19:21 |
| wols | neuromancer: depends what you think a bad sector actually is | 19:21 |
| Pici | enjahova: FF3 hasnt been released yet. | 19:21 |
| wols | MasseR: go to a console killall -9 X | 19:21 |
| enjahova | Pici: i know, but maybe it will be by the time the update is out | 19:21 |
| MasseR | wols: Can't go to console | 19:21 |
| wols | MasseR: if that doesn't work: reboot | 19:21 |
| InforMed | wols, make | 19:21 |

| At0x0 | When I click the logout (top right) icon on hardy heron, my system locks up for a solid minute before it appears. I can't click anything, switch windows, etc. Oddly, nothing is pegged (cpu,ram,net,load,hdd,etc). Any ideas? | 19:21 |
| MasseR | wols: I rebooted the computer about 50 times when I tried to fix it | 19:21 |
| Pici | enjahova: 8.04.1 is going to be released around June or July. | 19:21 |
| wols | MasseR: your crashed your system. happy rebooting. maybe next time try to revive it via a running sshd | 19:21 |
| neuromancer | wols: http://www.howtofixcomputers.com/forums/just-fix/has-my-hardrive-power-supply-went-bad-62515.html | 19:21 |
| GnomeBoy | jamiejackson, pretty nice HowTo :) | 19:21 |
| enjahova | Pici: thanks | 19:21 |
| wols | MasseR: then reboot 51st time. delete xorg.conf and dpkg-reconfigure your xserver | 19:21 |
| neuromancer | wols: done *lots* of research into this and before i bought the new drive I thought it was the power supply | 19:21 |
| neuromancer | wols: got the new drive and it worked for a while but it's only gone and done the same so the power supply is deffo to blame | 19:22 |
| mcphail | MasseR: if the keyboard doesn't seem to work, try "Alt-SysRq-R" | 19:22 |
| wols | neuromancer: then the question remains: why did you hook up the new hdd on the falty PSU that as you claim already has killed 4 others? | 19:22 |
| MasseR | mcphail: That's what I did to reboot | 19:22 |
| neuromancer | wols: to test | 19:22 |
| jetsaredim | MasseR: what kind of card(s) are you using? | 19:22 |
| GnomeBoy | jamiejackson, do i have to install b43-fwcutter ? cause in the howto i read: modprobe b43 | 19:22 |
| hwilde | wols, lol | 19:22 |
| jdahm_ | all of a sudden eth0 no longer exists, is there an easy way to fix this? | 19:22 |
| MasseR | jetsaredim: Don't laugh. Ati | 19:22 |
| sa125 | At0x0: I had the same prob and reinstalled gnome-power-manager and it worked fine afterwards.. but I did an update soon after and now it wont get past the login screen - I think I may have broken some dependencies, so be careful. | 19:23 |
| hwilde | jdahm_, sudo ifconfig eth0 up | 19:23 |
| jetsaredim | MasseR: which ati driver are you using? | 19:23 |
| martin100 | hallo is hardware-guru online? | 19:23 |
| MasseR | jetsaredim: Both ati and fglrx | 19:23 |
| jetsaredim | open or closed | 19:23 |
| hwilde | !ati | MasseR | 19:23 |
| neuromancer | wols: now I need a new PSU but I want to try to fix the system for the time being | 19:23 |
| ubottu | MasseR: For Ati/NVidia/Matrox video cards, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto | 19:23 |
| wols | jdahm_: depends what went wrong | 19:23 |
| jdahm_ | hwilde: No such interface | 19:23 |
| hwilde | jdahm_, that's not good :/ | 19:23 |
| jetsaredim | take a look at the gentoo wiki | 19:23 |
| neuromancer | wols: I'll reinstall once I get the new equipment I need | 19:23 |
| jdahm_ | hwilde: no, it's no :P | 19:23 |
| wols | neuromancer: won't help. you just get new bad sectors and more crashing again | 19:23 |
| hwilde | jdahm_, run "sudo ifconfig -a" and see if it just came up as a different name | 19:23 |
| jetsaredim | err MasseR: take a look at the gentoo wiki article on dual monitors | 19:23 |
| neuromancer | wols: yeah, I am expecting that | 19:24 |
| jdahm_ | hwilde: nope, only lo shows up | 19:24 |
| Grejao | have some linux filesystem that i can resize them? ( no lvm) | 19:24 |
| hwilde | !gparted | Grejao | 19:24 |
| ubottu | Grejao: GParted is a !GUI partitioning program. Type « sudo apt-get install gparted » in a console to install it - A GParted "live" CD is available at http://gparted-livecd.tuxfamily.org/ | 19:24 |
| wols | jdahm_: lspci and lsmod | 19:24 |
| timboy | i'm having an issue with fonts on the web. I tried to copy all of my fonts from my windows box onto my ubuntu box and now the web fonts in firefox are messed up. can someone give me a hand? | 19:24 |
| MasseR | jetsaredim: The problem is that I did get two monitors to 'work' but even though I had 2560x800 the second monitor was 1024x768 and the first one 1280x800 | 19:24 |
| hwilde | jdahm_, I dunno then... it doesn't exist for some reason. try "sudo modprobe e100" | 19:24 |
| neuromancer | wols: can't afford a PSU yet and want to utilise some of my system for a while ;) | 19:24 |
| MasseR | Therefore it got squashed horizontally and was left out vertically | 19:24 |
| jetsaredim | MasseR: it really depends on how your xorg.conf is setup and what your monitors will support | 19:25 |
| neuromancer | wols: I know it won't last long but it's better than booting into a flashdrive install all the time | 19:25 |
| MasseR | jetsaredim: yep. i had it working with that setup on 7.10 | 19:25 |
| jetsaredim | MasseR: I found with my nvidia dual head setup - it was almost easier to get working if I wrote the entire xorg.conf file by hand rather than use the tools | 19:25 |
| Grejao | ubottu, hwilde, i ask for some "Linux" filesystem that i can resize, eg. ext3, reiserfs, xfs ... i can resize it? | 19:25 |
| ubottu | Grejao: Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 19:25 |
| neuromancer | wols: I know it sounds strange but it *is* possible for a dodgy PSU to create bad sectors when the power drops out and such | 19:25 |
| MasseR | jetsaredim: Not much different than what I did eventually :) | 19:25 |
| sa125 | anyone knows how to resolve a broken dependency from terminal? | 19:26 |
| wols | sa125: pastebin the apt-get output | 19:26 |

| wols | jdahm_: I asked you something | 19:27 |
| neuromancer | sa125: sudo apt-get install -f or sudo apt-get build-dep <program> -- i think?! | 19:27 |
| sa125 | wols: can't really, its another machine... let me type a sec | 19:27 |
| jamiejackson | sorry for the delay, GnomeBoy, no, this doesn't have anything to do with b43-fwcutter | 19:27 |
| GnomeBoy | jamiejackson, thank you very much... WLAN is working now | 19:28 |
| jetsaredim | MasseR: check out http://www.gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_Dual_Monitors#ATI | 19:28 |

| PDF_q | hello I am having a lot of trouble installing the PDFlib, I tried some sites but it simply doesn't work, anyone know how to apt-get it somehow? | 19:36 |
| MilkmanDan | Thanks Pici | 19:36 |
| neuromancer | timboy: ttf's have to be installed in a certain way as opposed to installing the msttcorefonts package. I'd be dubious about putting them on my system and would expect some anomalies from doing so :/ | 19:36 |
| ErickGhint | mcphail: really? | 19:36 |
| chazco | timboy - It seems to be really random... Hardy on one machine had fonts really screwed up, another machine no issues. Same istall method. | 19:36 |
| compaqr4000 | anyone running openfire out there? Which version to install on Ubuntu, Debian or Red Hat? | 19:36 |
| mcphail | ErickGhint: in GNOME, yes | 19:36 |

| nikin | hy.. i am using xubuntu but i want to use fluxbox... i made according .xinitrc file to use with startx, but this way NetworkManager does not work.. neither the authentication needed for network-admin and users-admin .. can anyone help what i have to change? | 19:37 |
| timboy | neuromancer, so to fix this... should i remove that entire font directory and update fonts again? is there any safe way to add ttf's? I really like my fonts they work great in inkscape | 19:37 |
| ErickGhint | Did you just switch too, Pussel? | 19:38 |
| neuromancer | !ttf | 19:38 |

| compaqr4000 | ErickGhint, you will get to the point that when you do have to run windows for whatever reason, it will seem awkward and slow. | 19:38 |
| sa125 | sooo... anyone knows how to fix this: "Failed to fetch http://ubnuntu.intergenia.de/ubuntu/pool/main/x/xmlto/xmlto_0.0.18-5.1build1_i386.deb could not resolve 'ubnuntu.intergenia.de' | 19:38 |

| imterro | so what do i do to make it run? | 19:41 |
| Pici | imterro: What version of Ubuntu is this? | 19:41 |
| sa125 | mcphail: I just typed that in here to show the error -- forgive my misspelling | 19:41 |
| imterro | 8.04 | 19:42 |
| neuromancer | timboy: try _removing_them_ or assigning different system defaults ;) | 19:42 |
| ErickGhint | Comp: heh, i bought a prefab laptop the day Vista came out. Not that I wanted vista, it's just they wouldn't sell me a computer with XP on it. So I finally got fed up with it after about a year of crap. | 19:42 |
| nekkidtruth | I would really appreciate it if someone could privately message me to assist me with setting up proper partitions. Thanks in advance. | 19:42 |

| neuromancer | nikin: system> prefs> appearnace > fonts | 19:43 |
| neuromancer | timboy: ^^ meant for you | 19:43 |
| mcphail | sa125: you just need to edit the /etc/apt/sources.list file in your favourite text editor (e.g. "gksudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list") | 19:43 |
| neuromancer | nikin: ignore above | 19:43 |

| maiquel_ | Bodsda, i dont know install the driver, do you have a how-to? | 19:54 |
| Bodsda | sa125, theres some pointers at the botom of the nano screen (note that ^Q means ctrl+q) | 19:54 |
| Flannel | sa125: `nano [file]` and then its just like a regular text editor, scroll around, type stuff. ^ is ctrl, like Bodsda, just said. | 19:54 |
| Bodsda | maiquel_, go to System--> Admin--> Hardware Drivers, tick the Enable box then reboot | 19:55 |

| martyn | Hi dudes. I have an Apache2 server (actually, full LAMP) but need 'original' lib-gd - not the Ubuntu version because some commands are missing (imagerotate). I have successfully compiled lib-gd from scratch and wondered if it is possible to get Apache2 to see it as a module. Cannot use a2enmod because the filetypes are not in the .load and .conf format (loads of .c files etc). Is it easy to... | 20:06 |
| martyn | ...encourage Apache to read these modules or does it need a full recompile of Apache? :-( | 20:06 |

| mcphail | Grejao: first, mount it without the "uid=" rubbish | 20:10 |

| PCDJ | i can not believe how fast linux loads new USB devices | 20:17 |
| mcphail | Grejao: have you formatted the partition correctly? | 20:17 |
| wirechief | Slart i am use to ksnapshot, what is used in Ubuntu ? | 20:17 |

| wols | parvix: man interfaces | 20:54 |
| Flannel | sudobash: AptOnCD is a wonderful tool for sneakernet. But yeah, apt-cdrom will add it for you (and you need to, since it does some other stuff too, besides sources.list) | 20:54 |
| LogiTech | Is there download "accelerator" programs for ubuntu???? | 20:54 |
| beli | LogiTech: you can try ecasound or Audacity...but audacity needs also oss module...take care | 20:54 |

| fogobogo | lol | 20:55 |
| fogobogo | #ubuntu os great | 20:55 |
| sudobash | LogiTech the best type of "accelerator" is a high-speed proxy | 20:55 |
| beli | stoneDJay: sysinfo? /exec uptime -a | 20:55 |
| Flannel | fogobogo: Tring to connect to *what*? | 20:55 |
| wols | fogobogo: you type the numbres and the dots on your keyboard... | 20:55 |

| aguitel | what is openssh services? | 20:55 |
| tekteen | LogiTech: axel-gtk is used for downloading files fast | 20:55 |
| Flannel | aguitel: SSH allows you to log in remotely | 20:55 |
| wols | aguitel: ssh server | 20:55 |
| sudobash | other than that all an accelerator does it put the info right there by cacheing or just having an insanely fast connection | 20:56 |
| stoneDJay | beli: doesnt work for me... | 20:56 |
| beli | stoneDJay: /exec uptime | 20:56 |
| tekteen | sudobash: fasterfox is good | 20:56 |
| sudobash | so really accelerators work for all OS's that support proxy servers | 20:56 |
| LogiTech | Thank you all ...got axel-gtk | 20:56 |

| sudobash | there is a utility that will allow you to make a flash drive bootable.... and then you simply have to get your bios to allow you to boot from it whether thats from a boot menu or from boot device order is up to you.... | 20:59 |
| wols | !java | LogiTech | 20:59 |
| ubottu | LogiTech: To install a Java runtime/interpreter on Ubuntu, look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java - For the Sun Java runtime install sun-java6-jre from the !Multiverse repository (in !Backports for !Edgy) | 20:59 |

| tmapj | flannel i dont want to have to iinstall all the programs that come with ubuntu separately, also, there may be some that i dont even know about | 21:02 |
| Flannel | tmapj: There are -audio and -video metapackages as well. the -audio one contains ardour, sudo apt-get install ubuntustudio-audio | 21:02 |
| sudobash | i see | 21:02 |
| dpowerd | rconan, i reccomend envy | 21:02 |
| tmapj | amenado: how do i make the thubdrive bootable | 21:02 |
| Unknown512 | wols: http://paste.ubuntu.com/12120/ | 21:02 |
| ikonia | rconan: change DFP and CRT in the xorg.conf | 21:02 |
| dpowerd | its wonderful | 21:02 |
| wols | tmapj: you don't have to | 21:02 |
| catphish | rconan: move the monitors? | 21:02 |
| ikonia | dpowerd: how is envy going to solve the monitors being displayed the wrong way around | 21:02 |
| ikonia | !envy | dpowerd | 21:02 |
| ubottu | dpowerd: envyng is an updated version of the *UNSUPPORTED* envy package. It is now part of the ubuntu universe repository and has community support. As an early version, its results may vary but this should be used over the unsupported envy package. | 21:02 |
| dpowerd | you dont have to fsck with xorg.conf | 21:03 |
| wols | tmapj: and if you have a ISO file downloaded of some CD you can always mount said ISO file and use it like a CD | 21:03 |
| amenado | tmapj-> do you have another linux running? | 21:03 |
| ikonia | dpowerd: your not listening to what he's said | 21:03 |
| Flannel | tmapj: ubuntustudio-audio ubuntustudio-video ubuntu-studio-graphics, if you install all three of those along with -desktop, you'll have everyhting it has to offer. | 21:03 |
| wols | ikonia: EEEK! | 21:03 |
| stnkyminky | beli - i'm using it with an app and it says no suitable driver but the jar file is there. I set the classpath? but the terminal says : isn't a valid identifier | 21:03 |
| sudobash | its been a while but isnt there a way to reidentify twin view monitors? | 21:03 |
| ikonia | dpowerd: his monitors are being detected the wrong way around, how is changing the drivers going to change that | 21:03 |
| Unknown512 | wols: http://paste.ubuntu.com/12120/ | 21:03 |
| sudobash | in the xorg.conf | 21:03 |
| rconan | ikonia, they are both CRT as far as X is concerned | 21:03 |
| wols | Unknown512: I don't care. I told you what to do | 21:03 |
| dpowerd | well envy also provided me with a very nice gui for configuring x | 21:03 |
| cpk1 | tmapj: you could probably just install ubuntustudio-desktop and get everything | 21:03 |
| ikonia | sudobash: yes, exactly what I was saying | 21:03 |
| dpowerd | not sure what he currently has in place | 21:03 |
| wols | and I didn't tell you to paste me the incomplete stuff you got | 21:03 |
| ikonia | dpowerd: no it didn't | 21:03 |
| luke-jr | Any way to get the LiveCD to NOT start X? | 21:03 |
| rconan | ikonia, but the one which displays console text isn't the one which X detects first | 21:03 |
| beli | stnkyminky: hmm ok...cant help you with that...too special | 21:03 |
| ikonia | dpowerd: thats nothing to do with envy | 21:03 |

| dpowerd | orly? | 21:03 |
| santor | Элэктротрансформатор. | 21:04 |
| Unknown512 | wols: no you didn't you told me to see if their on, and i did. I don't know any further | 21:04 |
| sudobash | i had to do it once and realign the screens | 21:04 |
| wols | tmapj: apt-get install <missing programs> | 21:04 |

| ikonia | sudobash: exactly, | 21:04 |
| sudobash | but i forgot how i did it... it was a good 1 1/2 - 2 years ago | 21:04 |
| wols | Unknown512: they are loaded as the paste proves. are you blind? | 21:04 |
| stnkyminky | beli - what about ensuring classpath is set properly? anything is helpful | 21:04 |
| dpowerd | "nvidia x server settings" | 21:04 |
| beli | stnkyminky: how did you set it? | 21:04 |
| dpowerd | wherever it came from, i like it ;] | 21:04 |
| Flannel | tmapj: that'll get you everything ubuntu studio has to offer | 21:04 |
| wols | Unknown512: but of course yon only pasted a very small part | 21:05 |
| tmapj | wols i dont know what the names are of all themissing programs | 21:05 |
| cpk1 | tmapj: otherwise if you feel like you *must* do a fresh install this link has ways you can do it without a cd https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation | 21:05 |
| sudobash | pastebin your xorg and i will look at it and see if i can remember | 21:05 |
| wols | tmapj: somebody just told you | 21:05 |
| sudobash | i wont try to realign for you though cause thats to risky | 21:05 |
| wols | tmapj: magic of apt dependencies will get you the rest | 21:05 |
| Unknown512 | wols: No need to be a jerk, your in a HELP channel, which will mostly contain linux noobies | 21:05 |
| rconan | dpowerd, i suspect this is actually a bug... X should surely treat the one which the kernel output and consoles appear on as CRT-0 not the other way round | 21:05 |
| wols | Unknown512: have a good day, goodbye | 21:05 |
| Unknown512 | wols: and you only told me to check for that | 21:05 |
| wols | Unknown512: please don't lie as you did before | 21:05 |
| ikonia | rconan: the options are "TwinViewOrientation" and "TwinViewXineramaInfoOrder" | 21:06 |

| Andycas | Is there a tool to control fan speed, like a speedfan for windows??? | 21:06 |

| wols | 21:53 < Unknown512> wols: it only told me "Motherboard" < Unknown512> didnt help much | 21:06 |
| ikonia | sudobash: need both really if your using acceleration | 21:06 |
| sudobash | not positive though | 21:06 |
| Flannel | tmapj: And then additional plugins can be found at ubuntustudio-audio-plugins, which most people use, so you may want to install that as well. | 21:06 |
| stnkyminky | in the bashrc file | classpath = $classpath:/<location of jar file> export classpath on the next line | 21:06 |
| Unknown512 | Im serious thats all it told me | 21:06 |
| wols | Unknown512: but now please ask someone else if you don't like my answers. good day | 21:06 |
| sudobash | well it will let you reidentify right? | 21:07 |

| rconan | ikonia, TwinViewXineramaInfoOrder might be the one I want... what does that do? | 21:07 |
| ikonia | sudobash: you need the two optionbs I've just said | 21:07 |
| ikonia | rconan: it sets the order of the screens | 21:07 |

| wols | nikin: no one else really has business to run it | 21:07 |
| rconan | ikonia, will it set which one the applications menu and such appear on? | 21:07 |
| Flannel | tmapj: They're in the repository. type this at a terminal: sudo apt-get install ubuntustudio-desktop ubuntustudio-audio ubuntustudio-audio-plugins ubuntustudio-graphics ubuntustudio-video linux-rt | 21:07 |
| ikonia | rconan: should do, but that will depend on your desktop orientation also | 21:08 |
| sudobash | yeah i dont think i was doing acceleration at that time so i only used the orientation i think | 21:08 |
| nikin | wols: nm-applet ??? | 21:08 |
| ikonia | rconan: eg: span/clone/twin | 21:08 |
| rconan | ikonia, what is the syntax for that option? | 21:08 |
| ikonia | rconan: for which one ? | 21:08 |
| nikin | i run NetworkManager as root.. but i want the user to be able to use nm-applet | 21:08 |
| stnkyminky | beli: loc echod fine but should the : be in the path? | 21:08 |

| LogiTech | cp apt-axel /usr/local/sbin/apt-axel | 21:13 |
| LogiTech | 2. add execution permissions to /usr/local/sbin/apt-axel for root only | 21:13 |
| LogiTech | chown root.root /usr/local/sbin/apt-axel | 21:13 |
| FloodBot2 | LogiTech: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 21:13 |
| LogiTech | chmod 744 /usr/local/sbin/apt-axel | 21:13 |
| STSX | nikin, wols: Just wanted to mention another way for a user to easily make the net manager run w/o a password for a single user is to add an entry for it in the /etc/sudoers file. | 21:13 |

| napo | catphish: but ... the system still to install the ubuntu-desktop metapackage | 21:14 |
| stnkyminky | beli - ok, ty | 21:14 |
| wols | LogiTech: check if ubuntu has it in its repos FIRST. | 21:14 |
| Whitesox2007 | what's the command to check if DRI's enabled or not? | 21:14 |
| Flannel | tmapj: That's not an error with apt, you have successfully installed the programs, its just that some of them are having issues. Which is why I suggest you go ask in #ubuntustudio | 21:14 |
| napo | catphish: ... another problem is that i not need the network configuration | 21:14 |

| Jack_Sparrow | LogiTech try with sudo in front | 21:16 |
| LogiTech | no error | 21:16 |
| ikonia | ArthurArchnix: -o rw | 21:16 |
| sudobash | evil tech make sure it is firefox 2 and not a beta version | 21:16 |
| LogiTech | ok | 21:16 |
| Whitesox2007 | if it requires sudo it requires sudo. Probably accesses something restricted as root =p | 21:16 |
| ikonia | LogiTech: then what doesn't work | 21:16 |
| wols | Jack_Sparrow: he probably deosn't even have axel-gtk installed | 21:16 |
| beli | ArthurArchnix: you need to give options.... | 21:16 |

| ikonia | Whitesox2007: glx-gears --info | 21:16 |
| _paradox_ | but there are two directories containing same file | 21:17 |
| wols | Jack_Sparrow: you should first teach him how to use synaptic and look for it there instead of using howtos that tell people to copy stuff from /usr/local/sbin/ to /usr/sbin/... | 21:17 |
| nikin | Whitesox: but it does not need when runing xfce or gnome .... | 21:17 |
| Broadcom | kingair_six, i will help. put lspci in pasebin | 21:17 |
| wols | _paradox_: don't "belive", answer my question isntead | 21:17 |
| ikonia | Whitesox2007: glxfears -info sorry | 21:17 |
| Tigge | For me, Mouse Keys gets enable from time to time without me doing anything. Anyone had this problem? How can I prevent this? | 21:17 |
| wols | _paradox_: hint: dpkg -l is great for this | 21:17 |
| beli | Arky44: solved your problem with the permissions? | 21:17 |
| ikonia | Whitesox2007: ughh, sorry glxgears -info | 21:17 |
| Arky44 | Hello all. What is the fastest linux distribution (that isn't too small like DSL, etc) | 21:17 |
| Jack_Sparrow | wols I can take care of things without you telling me how to teach him | 21:17 |
| catphish | napo: tasksel tasksel/first multiselect standard, ubuntu-minimal | 21:17 |
| _paradox_ | i have java 6 installed | 21:18 |
| beli | Arky44: slackware | 21:18 |
| wols | Arky44: there is only ONE linux distro in here and no other: ubuntu | 21:18 |
| ArthurArchnix | ikonia: I've tried that "sudo mount -o rw /dev/sdb1 /mnt/usb" still can't copy files to it. Beli I have. I've tried variations of -t vfat -o rw but can't mount with read write support. | 21:18 |
| LogiTech | i want to know just how to copy 1 file to /usr/local/sbin/ | 21:18 |
| ikonia | Arky44: thats an impossible question, depends on your kit, your needs and how you set it up | 21:18 |
| maslowbeer | captcha on forum searches = FAIL.. . . .ugh | 21:18 |
| _paradox_ | the jre web start all of it | 21:18 |
| ikonia | beli: please don't talk nosense | 21:18 |
| STSX | Arky44: Maybe you should ask that in ##linux :) | 21:18 |
| beli | ikonia: i dont | 21:18 |
| ikonia | LogiTech: you have the commands in the instructions, what part is not working | 21:18 |
| Arky44 | wols: hehe, just testing :P | 21:18 |
| ikonia | beli: you do there is no "fast" distro | 21:18 |
| napo | catphish: why "standard" ? | 21:18 |
| wols | _paradox_: I never saw a "webstart" in any ubunut repo. did you install the debs or java.com downloads? | 21:18 |
| catphish | napo: (i think that's how you do it) | 21:18 |
| nikin | Whitesox2007: but it does not need when runing xfce or gnome .... | 21:18 |
| tmapj | flannel: it keeps giving me the same error message | 21:18 |
| catphish | napo: not standard | 21:18 |
| beli | ikonia: depends.... | 21:19 |
| ikonia | beli: no it doesn't | 21:19 |
| wols | nikin: dbus is started by fluxbox? | 21:19 |
| napo | catphish: i want install some software, so i changed the list in ubuntu-minimal | 21:19 |
| catphish | napo: just ubuntu-minimal | 21:19 |
| _paradox_ | it was actually all installed thru firefox | 21:19 |
| Whitesox2007 | ikonia, thanks for that for i could use it for my computer, but i'm working on my dad's and i think xgl is overriding dri but i need to find the command to be sure. | 21:19 |
| beli | ikonia: it does...i could have named crux.....which uses i686 binaries as default for example | 21:19 |
| ikonia | Whitesox2007: xgl overriding dri ??? are you sure | 21:19 |
| napo | catphish: ok ... now i try | 21:19 |
| nikin | wols: not that i know that | 21:19 |
| wols | _paradox_: I doubt it. and we only support the version from ubuntu.com. for your stuff: ask sun.com, not us | 21:19 |
| catphish | ok :) | 21:19 |
| ikonia | beli: and that doesn't expect the speed, hence why I said "talking nonsense" | 21:19 |
| Whitesox2007 | ikonia, it's happened to me before. | 21:19 |
| tmapj | * Starting TiMidity++ ALSA midi emulation... [fail] | 21:19 |
| wols | nikin: try to start it manually. might work if you are lucky | 21:19 |
| tmapj | invoke-rc.d: initscript timidity, action "start" failed. | 21:19 |
| nikin | wols: but doesnt it need to be run if it works for root? | 21:20 |
| beli | ikonia: optimized binaries result in faster speed....2-3%, but still its speed | 21:20 |
| Whitesox2007 | tmapj, command used? =p | 21:20 |
| ArthurArchnix | ikonia: Ok.. turns out I mounted it correctly... somewhat. But I needed to copy the files there as root. And I can't change ownership because it's fat32.... | 21:20 |
| ikonia | beli: they can often result in slow down... %2 %3 - still slower | 21:20 |

| Darkone1687 | Could anyone help me, Ubuntu is using a lot of RAM but it says there are two users, but both are the same user, is there a way to fix that... | 21:20 |
| zpzzlz | anyone know if multi pointer X is still going into xorg 7.4 | 21:20 |
| maslowbeer | ok could someone post the URL of the repository for restricted drivers? I've searched ubuntu.com in vain | 21:20 |
| ikonia | maslowbeer: just use the package manager to get it | 21:21 |
| ikonia | maslowbeer: then it gets the dependencies for you | 21:21 |
| beli | ikonia: depends....so you cant tell its nonsense at all....it may be nonsense...but.... | 21:21 |
| maslowbeer | ikonia i can't. no network | 21:21 |
| Darkone1687 | Could anyone help me, Ubuntu is using a lot of RAM but it says there are two users, but both are the same user, is there a way to fix that... | 21:21 |

| ikonia | beli: advising someone that "slackware" is the fastest distro - is nonense | 21:21 |
| maslowbeer | ikonia I have to download it to a usb drive from windows so I can then install in ubuntu | 21:21 |
| LogiTech | ikonia yes i got commands but where do i paste them? to terminal? just take : cp apt-axel /usr/local/sbin/apt-axel and paste it to terminal and thats it? :/ | 21:21 |
| maslowbeer | ikonia since w/o the driver I need I have no network to access the repos | 21:21 |
| ikonia | maslowbeer: ahh, thats going to be tricky as you'll need a few packages to meed the dependcies | 21:21 |
| ikonia | LogiTech: you need to apply them to where every you have apt-axel installed | 21:22 |
| wols | maslowbeer: apt-zip | 21:22 |
| stnkyminky | beli - terminal now says ": command not found" | 21:22 |
| maslowbeer | ikonia agreed. FAIL IMHO for upgrade team not thinking this through very well | 21:22 |
| Whitesox2007 | odd, i don't see timidity in there at all, tmapj | 21:22 |
| ikonia | !apt-oncd | 21:22 |
| beli | ikonia: maybe....for me it always was the distro with the things working best together, tweaks at the right places, optimizaztions where needed....but ok....its individual | 21:22 |
| ubottu | Factoid apt-oncd not found | 21:22 |
| wols | LogiTech: do you have axel-grk installed (or apt-axel)? | 21:22 |
| Flannel | !aptoncd | 21:22 |
| ubottu | APTonCD is a tool with a graphical interface which allows you to create one or more CDs or DVDs with all of the packages you've downloaded via apt-get or aptitude, creating a removable repository that you can use on other computers | 21:22 |
| maslowbeer | !apt-zip | 21:22 |
| ubottu | Factoid apt-zip not found | 21:22 |
| beli | stnkyminky: you are doing sth. wrong :) | 21:22 |
| Darkone1687 | why does no one ever Help me in this room | 21:22 |
| LogiTech | no its not installed its just " downloaded" nothing else | 21:23 |
| jamiejackson | how do i get a default/stock /etc/samba/smb.conf file back | 21:23 |
| beli | stnkyminky: echo $classpath.......why cant you post it to me? | 21:23 |
| ikonia | Darkone1687: what's your question | 21:23 |
| o0Chris0o | !patience | Darkone1697 | 21:23 |
| jamiejackson | Darkone1687: cuz this room is madness | 21:23 |
| ubottu | Darkone1697: The people here are volunteers, your attitude should reflect that. Answers are not always available. See http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines | 21:23 |
| nikin | ok second think... there is new way of authentication wich does not work so i cant use users-admin | 21:23 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Darkone1687 Possibly attitude or improperly formed questions.. there are many reasons | 21:23 |
| Flannel | Darkone1687: What makes you think its using a lot of RAM? | 21:23 |
| wols | maslowbeer: are you SURE it's a restricted driver you need? broadcom support in vanilla kernels is a LOT better since feisty | 21:23 |
| wols | maslowbeer: e.g. no more fwcutter | 21:24 |
| pen | Darkone1687, actually I think most of us have that problem too. | 21:24 |
| nikin | what do i have to run to make it work? the button is grey | 21:24 |
| pen | Darkone1687, just be patient | 21:24 |
| maslowbeer | wols yes pretty sure since I have no wifi card without the restricted driver | 21:24 |
| ikonia | Darkone1687: what's your question | 21:24 |
| wols | maslowbeer: what chip? | 21:24 |
| olskolirc | hey guys what happened too all the goodies in the launchpad repository. all gone. where is it now? https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompositeManager/CompizFusion | 21:24 |

| ikonia | osfameron: what goodies ? | 21:25 |
| LogiTech | from http://linux.softpedia.com/progDownload/Apt-Axel-Download-1648.html | 21:25 |
| olskolirc | such as the repository loaded successfully but when I sudo apt-get install compizconfig-settings-manager and other things, its gone | 21:25 |
| wols | LogiTech: then ask them, not us I guess | 21:25 |
| ikonia | olskolirc: it's still there | 21:25 |
| Shadu | How can you see what process takes what amount of cpu % ? | 21:25 |
| wols | Shadu: top | 21:26 |
| ikonia | LogiTech: the instructions are on the url - read carefully the url | 21:26 |
| olskolirc | how come i can't get anything? | 21:26 |
| Shadu | wols: top? :/ | 21:26 |
| wols | olskolirc: troed apt-cache policy on the package? | 21:26 |
| Flannel | olskolirc: That PPA only has stuff for feisty, in hardy that stuff is in the real repos | 21:26 |
| wols | Shadu: yes | 21:26 |
| Shadu | wols: ah thx | 21:26 |
| ikonia | olskolirc: looking for the wrong package names ? | 21:26 |
| ikonia | olskolirc: search the repo's for the right names | 21:26 |
| jamiejackson | answering my last question for myself: sudo dpkg-reconfigure samba | 21:26 |
| olskolirc | ok | 21:26 |
| maslowbeer | wols dunno - windows only says it's a broadcom 802.11g network adapter | 21:26 |
| pen | anyone here know how to use gfxboot in the repo? | 21:27 |
| wols | maslowbeer: I doN't care what windows says. I care what linux with lspci says | 21:27 |
| jamiejackson | wait, no, didn't redo my config file, bah | 21:27 |
| wols | pen: /usr/share/doc/gfxboot maybe? | 21:27 |
| stnkyminky | beli - http://pastebin.com/d69763b7e | 21:27 |
| maslowbeer | wols no way to tell here since i'm dual booted in win and can't get online in ubuntu ;) | 21:27 |
| maslowbeer | wols i'll boot it up and see and come back iab | 21:28 |
| olskolirc | there is nothing about compiz in the apt cache search | 21:28 |
| wols | then have fun solving your problem alone. we can't help without data,goodbye | 21:28 |
| pen | wols, you mean doc gfxboot? | 21:28 |
| beli | stnkyminky: use : not ; | 21:28 |
| Jack_Sparrow | maslowbeer do you have access to a hardwire internet where you can do your updates? | 21:28 |
| olskolirc | just the old stuff i seen in my regular repositories | 21:28 |
| slider2800 | Hi all! | 21:28 |
| wols | pen: I mean exactly what I said | 21:28 |
| Flannel | olskolirc: What version of Ubuntu are you using? | 21:28 |
| maslowbeer | Jack_Sparrow no | 21:28 |
| olskolirc | feisty fawn Flannel | 21:28 |
| maslowbeer | Jack_Sparrow but it was working fine in gutsy | 21:28 |
| maslowbeer | Jack_Sparrow w restricted driver that is | 21:28 |
| beli | stnkyminky: remove your CLASSPATH line in the ~/.bashrc | 21:28 |
| slider2800 | can someone help me with setting up a cron job? | 21:29 |
| gustavo | oi | 21:29 |
| pen | wols, hm, only a html file | 21:29 |
| Shadu | so.. whats a good irc client? (wanna get rid of my current one :P, using gnome btw) | 21:29 |
| wols | Shadu: irssi :P | 21:29 |
| Flannel | olskolirc: ah, you're right. It does look like that repos is no longer maintained. You could upgrade to Gutsy, and then you wouldn't need it anymore. | 21:29 |
| wols | but xchat is the most popular for X | 21:29 |
| LogiTech | why ubuntu got so hard installition for every program.....windows got self installition exes...what makes windows easyer for beginners | 21:29 |
| stnkyminky | beli - what do i do with it? | 21:29 |
| snmpee | yeah xchat for windows is a fail | 21:29 |
| beli | stnkyminky: then do the following: "echo CLASSPATH=/home/user/Desktop/mirthrxt/mirth-1.7.0.3285/lib/custom/ >> ~/.bashrc" | 21:29 |
| wols | LogiTech: ubuntu is a lot easier than windows actually | 21:30 |
| Flannel | LogiTech: Its not, fire up the package manager, install. | 21:30 |
| stnkyminky | k | 21:30 |
| TomB_ | luckily I don't use windows | 21:30 |
| maslowbeer | LogiTech nothing easier than apt-get install IMHO | 21:30 |
| Jack_Sparrow | maslowbeer you have limited choices.. yes the restricted driver worked fine in gutsy.. but finding a hard line for internet just isnt a big deal for most people. or aptoncd etc | 21:30 |
| wols | LogiTech: but you maybe should first read something, and not use programs from outside the repos which you rarely if ever need | 21:30 |
| olskolirc | Gutsy upgrades knock out my tvtuner card | 21:30 |
| asizemore | TomB_: I use windows, lol | 21:30 |
| TomB_ | ieuw :-p | 21:30 |
| jason_1 | wols, i always use programs outside the repos.. | 21:30 |
| snmpee | olskolirc you're not alone | 21:30 |
| Flannel | olskolirc: Do you know if its fixed in Hardy? | 21:30 |
| asizemore | it's the way I connect to my spiffy buntu server | 21:30 |
| wols | jason_1: fine for you | 21:31 |
| jason_1 | wols, you just said never to use | 21:31 |
| TomB_ | Hardy can be a bitch sometimes | 21:31 |
| beli | pwd | 21:31 |
| TomB_ | but so can any new release... | 21:31 |
| wols | jason_1: and I still mean it | 21:31 |
| sudobash | well the way i connect to my spiffy OpenBSD 4.3 Server is SSH2 | 21:31 |

| LogiTech | what is "repos" ? ...you all the time tell repos repos ...what that mean | 21:31 |
| maslowbeer | Jack_Sparrow if there was a way to d/l the driver I need to a usb drive, install it and voila - that would be ideal | 21:31 |
| sudobash | repositories | 21:31 |
| wols | jason_1: if you don't use the package management you are a fool and should use LFS and not ubuntu | 21:31 |

| pen | wols, where can I switch from grub to gfxboot? | 21:32 |

| jason_1 | Jack_Sparrow, i figured this was ubuntu related? | 21:33 |
| pen | sudobash, I did. Google only tells me grub-gfxboot from a deb not from the repo | 21:33 |
| jason_1 | apt-get is ubuntu related, no? | 21:33 |
| Jack_Sparrow | jason_1 but not support related | 21:33 |
| pen | sudobash, I believe they are differernt | 21:33 |
| LogiTech | i can copy things to somewhere with "terminal commands" ? is that possible | 21:34 |

| douye | :P | 21:35 |
| pen | wols, I know | 21:35 |
| jason_1 | Jack_Sparrow, according to discussion in ubuntu-offtopic using software outside of the repos will not break my system. | 21:35 |
| wols | pen: you should have googled http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=208855 for example | 21:35 |
| snmpee | i have to skip apt-get sometimes to get stuff that people aren't maintaining, like aircrack | 21:35 |
| LogiTech | 1. copy apt-axel to /usr/local/sbin/ | 21:35 |
| LogiTech | cp apt-axel /usr/local/sbin/apt-axel that cp apt-axel /usr/local/sbin/apt-axel is command what i need to paste to "terminal" is that right?? | 21:35 |

| rconan | ikonia, right... i have the monitors the right way around now but I can't get the second one to use the right resolution | 21:36 |
| pen | wols, I told the other guy about that page. I know that one | 21:36 |
| sudobash | i have had apt-get break my system everything can break your system if it is not tested and debugged enough | 21:36 |

| wols | pen: what is different? | 21:36 |
| sudobash | sudo apt-get dist-upgrade can make things not work properly | 21:36 |
| pen | wols, that gfxboot is not from the repo | 21:36 |
| jason_1 | Jack_Sparrow they mention only if sources aren't reliable, | 21:36 |
| pen | wols, must be differernt | 21:36 |
| wols | pen: it's the same program | 21:37 |
| sudobash | so what Ubuntu is a free OS that is Open Source which means it is constantly updated | 21:37 |
| Jack_Sparrow | jason_1 define reliable | 21:37 |
| pen | wols, are you sure? | 21:37 |
| wols | just packaged differently. the 2what to do is very clear" tho | 21:37 |
| jason_1 | dunno, it's what they said, not me | 21:37 |
| Jack_Sparrow | jason_1 Please stop this line of discussion... thanks | 21:37 |

| jason_1 | in most cases i download the sourcecode and compile myself. | 21:38 |

| sudobash | ntfs is more prone to fragmentation | 21:52 |
| Haikaido | does that mean its unsupported? | 21:52 |
| jamiejackson | how to get the default smb.conf file back? tried "sudo dpkg --configure samba" but that didn't work (obviously, or i wouldn't be here) | 21:53 |
| sudobash | ext3 gets fragmentated mainly when the drive is nearly full and if you are in that type situtaion you wont have the diskspace to defrag anyways | 21:53 |
| BlueLaguna | ssh_exchange_identification: Connection closed by remote host | 21:53 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Haikaido it means they dont support linux with drivers or info on their hardware allowing others to create drivers | 21:53 |

| Fishscene | Rat409, actually, I did oversimplify it. 32-bit os's can only address a max of 4GB of memory. Memory can be anything from video-card memory to RAM to ROM etc... | 21:59 |

| Frost-w | is Wine included in the ubuntu 8.04 distributive? | 22:00 |
| sudobash | can you | 22:00 |

| ubottu | WINE is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine for more information, and see !AppDB for application compatibility. | 22:00 |
| jamiejackson | J-Unit: you could try alt-f2 and then issue: killall nautilus gnome-panel | 22:00 |
| sudobash | try sh /etc/init.d/gdm restart | 22:00 |

| martyn | Alright dudes. Trying to upgrade server 6.06 LTS to 8.04 from command line. Done updates with apt-get and upgrade and dist-upgrade but just says I am up-to-date. On typing lsb_release -a it reports I am still with 6.06.02. Any suggestions? | 22:12 |
| J-Unit | Master_Z, were do i do that"? | 22:13 |
| Myrtti | martyn: you've not done it exactly the right way | 22:13 |
| Slart | !upgrade | martyn | 22:13 |
| ubottu | martyn: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes | 22:13 |
| Slart | martyn: don't know if there is anything about command line upgrades there.. worth a look though | 22:13 |

| Jack_Sparrow | martyn I thought it was... The proper way to upgrade to Hardy, use sudo do-release upgrade | 22:13 |
| J-Unit | Master_Z, doesnt do anything again since it would need for me to click on desktop but it doesnt "see the clicks" | 22:14 |
| Myrtti | martyn: "sudo do-release-upgrade" | 22:14 |
| Slart | apple-gunkies: I don't know if it's good.. but there are some | 22:14 |
| Caram | Gparted says that it can't read the contents of my ntfs filesystem | 22:14 |
| kitche | apple-gunkies: clamav is one it also has a windows port as well | 22:14 |
| Caram | ideas on whats wrong? | 22:14 |
| Slart | !antivirus | apple-gunkies | 22:14 |

| martyn | Cheers guys - just came from there! Thanks all responders - will try all above (but think I have already tried all of those suggested). Will report back... | 22:14 |
| zSoilworker | Fritzel: No, just install the libraries again | 22:14 |
| Slart | Fritzel: it uses some kind of default sound.. it's not working for you? | 22:14 |
| kitche | Fritzel: adobe uses alsa for sound at least 9 does | 22:14 |
| Master_Z | zsoilworker: Okay, thanks. Now I need the windows driver correct? What format would that bae? | 22:15 |
| tim167 | i installed ubuntu ona usb stick, i get the login window but then an empty desktop, what's wrong ? | 22:15 |
| Fritzel | it uses alsa but it uses it wrong, because it is locking down my sound card | 22:15 |
| Jack_Sparrow | !sound | 22:15 |
| ubottu | If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3 | 22:15 |
| zSoilworker | Master_Z: You don't need the driver | 22:15 |

| tim167 | evilbug: no a 4 gig one | 22:16 |
| Phantal- | Any suggestions? | 22:16 |
| Fritzel | Slart, I'm not using pulse | 22:16 |

| jwprox | I've already googled, but I can't seem to find the reason behind Hardy not being able to display the contents of a USB harddrive | 22:16 |
| zSoilworker | Master_Z: That manual rat gave is quite usefull | 22:16 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Copter possibly how your video card is setup or it does not have drivers for linux | 22:16 |
| evilbug | tim167- ah.sorry,can't help. | 22:16 |
| Copter | Jack_Sparrow: I mean, they look "ok" but like BOLDY compared to winxp. I did install msttcore fonts, but everything looks off! | 22:17 |
| Master_Z | zsoilworker: yeah, I'm lookin at it | 22:17 |
| Jack_Sparrow | jwprox is it a passport drive? | 22:17 |
| jwprox | Has anyone else had issues with Hardy not being able to mount USB hard drives> | 22:17 |
| ibleed | can either powernowd or hotkey-management services by disabled for everyday use ? | 22:17 |
| Slart | Fritzel: just have to ask this.. you're really sure you're not running pulseaudio? you've uninstalled it/deactivated it manually? | 22:17 |
| Caram | When I open up GParted, I get "Unable to read the contents of this filesystem! Because of this some operations may be unavailable. | 22:17 |

| zSoilworker | Fritzel: sudo apt-get install libflashsupport | 22:17 |
| Fritzel | Slart, well I'm not sure what good configuring alsa itself will do, every thing works 100% except when flash decides to lock down the card, which happens quite often expecially when I'm attempting to use wine, which is also configured for alsa, they both just don't cooperate | 22:17 |

| Fritzel | I have alsa set on all devices in system > preferences > sound | 22:18 |
| Slart | Fritzel: you could always try running everything through dmix.. it will be software mixing but at least it might make it work.. | 22:18 |

| regeya | Some_Person: based on what you said, I would argue your caps lock is still on :-> | 22:21 |
| ompaul | martyn, then you have to do one step at a time version to version - easier to get cd at this point | 22:21 |

| Fritzel | zSoilworker, it always played sound that wasn't the question, the question was why is it locking the sound card so that wine won't play sound, whenever npviewer.bin is running as a process (which I was told was part of flash) wine has no sound, if I kill npviewer.bin any application I start from that point have sound | 22:29 |

| BadMAx | Hello guys. I'm about to buy a sound card in order to sort out the problems I got with my integrated sound card. The only card available to me seems to be the Creative Labs Audigy SE. The matrix vender at alsa project says about this card "no 96khz 24 bit support". What does that mean? Should I avoid this card because of that? I want to card to have MIDI playback, soundfont support and semi profesional audio recording. I'm running 8.04 | 22:36 |

| Fritzel | zSoilworker, alright I'll see how it works out and let you know | 22:40 |
| Slart | Phantal-: check the dpi setting for your monitor? | 22:40 |
| ChosenOne | lo :) | 22:40 |
| zSoilworker | gretsch6151: if you're registered, yes. | 22:40 |
| Mister_Death | im lost | 22:40 |
| MaFiOtA_1987 | good nidht | 22:40 |
| zSoilworker | Fritzel: k | 22:41 |
| Phantal- | Slart, it's on a laptop. Resolution is set at 1920x1080 or somesuch | 22:41 |
| Master_Z | douye: it is | 22:41 |
| Mulder | maybe i'll try tomorrow. if they did update signing key , maybe they'll release somethiing soon | 22:41 |
| gretsch6151 | thought so. thanx Z | 22:41 |
| Fritzel | zSoilworker, one quick question though | 22:41 |
| ChosenOne | what would output of "ls -l /usr/lib/libcups.so.2" mean, if it returns a line like ?????????? ? ? ? ? ? libcups.so.2 | 22:41 |
| Zaiden | izinucs: Well, 1024x768 runs at a lower refresh rate, but when I try to run Half life 2 via wine, the screen always switches to 1024x768. It works after waiting for about 30 seconds, but if I set the game to run in a window, then restart HL2, the game won't run after the intro | 22:41 |
| Fritzel | zSoilworker, the url at the top am I supposed to grab something from there or is that simple reference? | 22:41 |
| alastor666 | Oyasumi irc ↖o↗ | 22:41 |
| douye | master_z, k i will try to help figure things out.. but cant promise anything (just started with ubuntu myself.. but got wireless working tho) | 22:41 |
| Slart | Phantal-: check system, preferences, appearance... fonts tab.. and press "details".. there's a number at the top.. mine is 96.. it affects how large fonts are | 22:41 |
| zSoilworker | Fritzel: it's for downloading the plugin and the viewer | 22:42 |
| sten_ | supaneko:do you mean for a serial console? How many, and what kind of serial ports do you have? | 22:42 |
| zSoilworker | Fritzel: Sorry, i assume you'll see it | 22:42 |
| beli | maynards-girl: maynard fergusons? | 22:42 |
| BadMAx | Slart: for what I've seen at the wiki, every audigy migh work differently. That's why I want to know what "no 96khz 24bit support" means | 22:42 |
| zSoilworker | Fritzel: Are you in a x64 arch? | 22:42 |
| Broadcom | Master_Z http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=95879 i assume you have tried this? | 22:42 |
| supaneko | sten_, I am trying to setup a voicemail server. I have an external serial modem attached. Dialing out seems to work but it is not answering calls. | 22:42 |
| Mister_Death | ok Broadcom did the lspci thing, it gave me some stuff | 22:42 |
| Fritzel | zSoilworker, I see it I'm just don't fully understand what I'm about to do and I am double checking | 22:42 |
| supaneko | My guess is that I need to somehow enable vgetty or the COM port at startup. | 22:42 |
| undecim | hey, everyone. How do you remove/change the little disclaimer ("the programs included with ubuntu.... no warranty... ") thing from login prompts? | 22:43 |
| gretsch6151 | sten_: don't mean to bother you but how did you get your usb nic to work? | 22:43 |
| zSoilworker | Fritzel: That's ok. | 22:43 |
| Fritzel | zSoilworker, yes I'm on x64 | 22:43 |
| Slart | BadMAx: 96Khz, 24bit seems like a very very high quality to be using.. a CD is what.. 44,1 kHz, 16 bit.. | 22:43 |
| izinucs | Zaiden, sounds like I came into your issue late. I thought you had overall resolution issues. not issues with HL | 22:43 |
| halycon | bye guys | 22:43 |
| supersoundguy | undecim, edit /etc/motd | 22:43 |
| halycon | thanks for your help | 22:43 |
| undecim | ty | 22:43 |
| zSoilworker | Fritzel: So i deducted, try that, you can check it with anyone here. | 22:43 |
| halycon | !shortcut | 22:43 |
| ubottu | 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 | 22:43 |
| Phantal- | Slart, i don't see a details button, but there's a 'force fonts dpi' option that was previously disabled that has an option for 96DPI ... | 22:43 |
| Broadcom | Mister_Death, put it in paste bin | 22:43 |
| sten_ | gretsch6151: why aren't you in the private chat? | 22:43 |
| BadMAx | oh, thanks a lot Slart! | 22:43 |
| phoenix5002 | I'm trying to make a terminal open in my second workspace on startup. Is there anyway to do this with a script? OR, is there anyway to switch between active workspaces with the terminal? because then I could activate the second workspace run the terminal wait a bit and then switch back to the first. any ideas? | 22:43 |
| gretsch6151 | sten_: i am | 22:43 |
| Zaiden | izinucs: s'okay, I should've been more specific | 22:43 |
| douye | master_z: did you install the ndiswrapper and all ? | 22:44 |
| sten_ | gretsch6151: ok. That's where I'm debugging your NIC issue | 22:44 |
| guest472394372 | does anyone use multiget with ubuntu 7.10? | 22:44 |
| Slart | Phantal-: no details button?? you're running hardy? | 22:44 |
| Zaiden | In other news, I can run sound with second life and firefox at the same time, but the sound lags for a second :< | 22:44 |
| Master_Z | douye: yes, I did via synaptics manager | 22:44 |
| Phantal- | Slart, changing that setting fixed it, thank you. Actually, i think i'm running gutsy | 22:44 |
| Phantal- | lemme check | 22:44 |
| douye | master_z: you tried this?: http://jimvernon.com/archives/53 | 22:44 |
| Mister_Death | paste it where, Broadcom | 22:44 |
| === c1|freaky_ is now known as c1|freaky | ||
| Broadcom | !paste | Mister_Death | 22:45 |
| ubottu | Mister_Death: 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) | 22:45 |
| ChosenOne | "ls: cannot access /usr/lib/libcups.so.2: No such file or directory" <- what does that mean cannot exist? it says the file exists, but somehow the filesystem seems to suck :) it doesnt know the filesize :o | 22:45 |
| Slart | Phantal-: ah.. that might explain it.. | 22:45 |
| Phantal- | Slart, eh, i don't remember how to check. but, problem is fixed | 22:45 |
| jamiejackson | when you share a folder with nautilus, where does it store that share information? (where's the text configuration file it writes to?) | 22:45 |
| Fritzel | zSoilworker, would starting firefox with aoss make this whole problem alot simpler? | 22:45 |
| Master_Z | douye: awesome! no I didnt! okay. so how do I redirect my terminal to the folder on my desktop? | 22:45 |
| zSoilworker | Fritzel: incredible. | 22:45 |
| Slart | jamiejackson: I'm guessing somewhere in that gnome config database.. gconf-editor will let you look around in it | 22:46 |
| zSoilworker | Fritzel: you could use esd also | 22:46 |
| douye | master_z: you dont have to, just run those commands | 22:46 |
| MrObvious | WIth the new SSL vulnerability, what can I do to patch my system so I don't have problems? | 22:46 |
| Mister_Death | thanks | 22:46 |
| Mathman | ChosenOne: say what? you sure you pasted the thing you happen to be talking about? | 22:46 |
| Fritzel | esd causes flash to stop after 2 seconds | 22:46 |
| zSoilworker | Fritzel: aoss then | 22:46 |
| ChosenOne | Mathman: i'm only making guesses | 22:46 |
| zSoilworker | MrObvious: What OS are you in? | 22:46 |
| Master_Z | douye: it says to redirect | 22:46 |
| Finiras | what is a good ftp client on ubuntu? | 22:46 |
| douye | master_z: ah wait misread yeah :P uhm sec | 22:46 |
| MrObvious | zSoilworker: Hardy 64 bit on my laptop and 32 bit on my server at work. | 22:47 |
| Slart | Finiras: gftp is ok | 22:47 |
| Zaiden | Should I take off pulseaudio and replase it with Esound to see if the sound lag issue will stop? | 22:47 |
| Finiras | k ty | 22:47 |
| zSoilworker | Finiras: gFTP | 22:47 |
| Mathman | ChosenOne: alrighty. at any rate, if bash tells you "no such file or directory", odds are pretty good there's no such file or directory | 22:47 |
| Fritzel | zSoilworker, I know that was mentioned earlier if you were the one who made the suggestion I appologize ^^ | 22:47 |
| ChosenOne | Mathman: it started with apt failing to unpack a libcups-update to the path /usr/lib/libcups.so.2 - and `ls` says "cannot access, no such file for direcotry" | 22:47 |
| douye | master_z: its with cd /home/<username>/desktop/ | 22:47 |
| Mister_Death | here Broadcom, http://paste.ubuntu.com/12136/ | 22:47 |
| CaptainMorgan | anyone experiencing a problem with the screensaver in 8.04 ? after a length of time, - it *occasionally* logs me out of my system... wtf? why is this happening? | 22:47 |
| zSoilworker | Fritzel: it's ok | 22:47 |
| cylux | Hey guys, what is the file format extension for an mpeg2 file? | 22:47 |
| andajo | hola algun latino | 22:48 |
| infidelis | mp2 | 22:48 |
| gretsch6151 | tell sten_ thanx anyway guys... i guess i don't remember how to go to a private channel... i hate being old :( | 22:48 |
| Mathman | ChosenOne: sounds like it's time to reinstall libcups then | 22:48 |
| Slart | CaptainMorgan: are you sure it's logging you out? my guess is that it somehow crashes the X server and it restarts... | 22:48 |
| cylux | infidelis: Are you sure? foo.mp2 ? | 22:48 |
| zSoilworker | andajo: Please, speak english, there's a spanish channel for that. | 22:48 |
| sten_ | gretsch6151: oh! Sorry! | 22:48 |
| douye | master_z: atleast if im right :P | 22:48 |
| ChosenOne | Mathman: i *really* think it's a filesystem issue, wait i'll go nopaste the longer stuff | 22:48 |
| aryix | andajo: go to ubuntu-ar ubuntu-es for spanish speaking people | 22:48 |
| MrObvious | !es | andajo | 22:48 |
| ubottu | andajo: Aquí solamente hablamos inglés. Para Español, por favor entre en los canales #ubuntu-es o #kubuntu-es - allí obtendrá más ayuda. | 22:48 |
| andajo | ok | 22:48 |
| infidelis | no actually, i was just being facetious | 22:48 |
| CaptainMorgan | Slart, that's probably more like it... why is this happening ? | 22:48 |
| sten_ | gretsch6151: what irc client are you using? | 22:48 |
| cylux | infidelis: Oh, okay. | 22:49 |
| MrObvious | zSoilworker: Any ideas? | 22:49 |
| infidelis | heh, sorry. | 22:49 |
| gretsch6151 | pidgin | 22:49 |
| douye | master_z: its case-sensitive btw | 22:49 |
| CaptainMorgan | Slart, I'm definitely logged out.. but it does appear that Xserver has restarted... | 22:49 |
| gretsch6151 | sten_: pidgin | 22:49 |
| zSoilworker | MrObvious: Sorry, didn't get the question | 22:49 |
| Broadcom | Mister_Death, sudo apt-get install b43-fwcutter | 22:50 |
| Slart | CaptainMorgan: well.. graphics drivers might be one bet.. some power saving stuff might be doing it.. have you tried just using the blank screensaver and see if it improves the situation | 22:50 |
| MrObvious | zSoilworker: I have Hardy and I wanna know if I should worry about the SSL exploit out for Debian based Linuxes such as Ubuntu and what I can do to protect myself? | 22:50 |
| infidelis | hmm, looks like it's one of them actually | 22:50 |
| Master_Z | douye: not working... | 22:50 |
| peanut3r | whenever I goto install perl modules with cpan they fail the install while building makefile. I have gcc and build-essential installed. Any suggestions? | 22:50 |
| Master_Z | douye: do the < > need to be in there? | 22:50 |
| zSoilworker | MrObvious: No, that's no threat in Hardy Heron | 22:50 |
| douye | master_z: nop | 22:50 |
| MrObvious | zSoilworker: Really? It's already been fixed? Awesome. | 22:50 |
| Master_Z | douye: no such directory | 22:50 |
| zSoilworker | MrObvious: Its been patched | 22:50 |
| CaptainMorgan | Slart, blank is boring... :) I have the minimal effects set... I think the max would be too much and I wanted something more than no effects... the power saving settings should be at default | 22:50 |
| douye | master_z: ah little shortcut: go to your desktop by using a file explorer and copy the url | 22:51 |
| zSoilworker | MrObvious: Do you have your OS uptodate? | 22:51 |
| Slart | CaptainMorgan: ati graphics? | 22:51 |
| MrObvious | zSoilworker: As of yesterday or today. | 22:51 |
| sudobash | i have something i think and admin might want to see.... | 22:51 |
| CaptainMorgan | Slart, intel integrated, discrete | 22:51 |
| MrObvious | zSoilworker: I'm gonna check now via apt-get :). | 22:51 |
| zSoilworker | MrObvious if not yet, the patch will be delivered between today and saturday | 22:51 |
| sten_ | gretsch6151: I think that the private chat would be either a tab in your chatting window, or else it will show up as an entry in your buddy list | 22:51 |
| tawd | what is the best program language to learn for stand-along programs? | 22:51 |
| tawd | *stand-alone | 22:52 |
| Slart | CaptainMorgan: well.. I'm guessing the 3d stuff does something bad to your system.. | 22:52 |
| MrObvious | zSoilworker: Ahh there it is. libssl0.9.8 is gonna be upgraded. | 22:52 |
| Broadcom | tawd: there is none, and dont ask it here, ubuntu only :) | 22:52 |
| Slart | tawd: as a first language? | 22:52 |
| zSoilworker | MrObvious: Go wild | 22:52 |
| ChosenOne | http://pastie.caboo.se/197142 @ Mathman | 22:52 |
| mcphail | MrObvious: any SSH keys you have generated may be compromised, despite the patch. | 22:52 |
| peanut3r | tawd: perl is often quick to learn. | 22:52 |
| MrObvious | zSoilworker: Upgrading dude! | 22:52 |
| Master_Z | douye: sigh, I dont understand. perhaps its -cd and not cd? | 22:52 |
| armadill0 | MrObvious: mcphail is right | 22:52 |
| Mister_Death | thanks Broadcom, never used unbuntu before, where is sudo apt-get install b43-fwcutter | 22:52 |
| Slart | *cough*... did you just recommend perl as a starter language????.. | 22:52 |
| Fritzel | zSoilworker, ok I always hate asking these questions but as of yet I have no idea how to find the proper location yet | 22:52 |
| douye | master_z: nah its cd, but uhm are you using the english version of ubuntu ? | 22:52 |
| Mister_Death | never mind | 22:52 |
| gretsch6151 | sten_: found it got the auto reply.. heh :) | 22:53 |
| MrObvious | mcphail: Yeah that's scary! I use SSH all the time for online banking. I do it on Linux because of the lack of spyware/viruses on Windows. But this is huge. | 22:53 |
| Master_Z | douye: yep | 22:53 |
| tawd | Slart, i know basic, and python looks easy, but i'm looking for good solid stand alones | 22:53 |
| peanut3r | slart: yep. print "hello world";' | 22:53 |
| peanut3r | can't get much easier then that | 22:53 |
| Broadcom | Mister_Death, go to terminal, under acessories and put it in | 22:53 |
| douye | master_z: hmm k, then it should be cd /home/username/Desktop | 22:53 |
| tawd | peanut3r, ok, thanks | 22:53 |
| Slart | tawd: no language is really stand alone.. but this is offtopic here.. | 22:53 |
| MrObvious | mcphail: armadill0: zSoilworker: What can I do to patch Firefox against this? Most of my SSL stuff is either the occasional SSH or Firefox SSL needs or Thunderbird. | 22:53 |
| Master_Z | douye: username is zach, so it would be: cd /home/zach/Desktop right? | 22:53 |
| Mister_Death | i did thanks Broadcom | 22:53 |
| Slart | tawd: go with java or python.. that's what the schools are using | 22:53 |
| Fritzel | I seem to have an error with libaoss.so how do I find out which package contains this file http://pastebin.com/d48b4581a for the full output | 22:54 |
| Mathman | ChosenOne: so run fsck | 22:54 |
| douye | Master_z: yep | 22:54 |
| Broadcom | Mister_Death, does it work? | 22:54 |
| Fritzel | zSoilworker, ^^^ | 22:54 |
| Slart | !info aoss | 22:54 |
| cylux | Hey guys, what is the file format extension for an mpeg2 file? | 22:54 |
| ubottu | Package aoss does not exist in hardy | 22:54 |
| beli | any ideas why my apt-get update is segfaulting? | 22:54 |
| mcphail | MrObvious: you don't need to patch firefox. Sites that have SSL certificates created or signed by debian boxes are the problem | 22:54 |
| Master_Z | douye: worked. | 22:54 |
| beli | using an empty sources.list it just doesnt crash | 22:54 |
| douye | master_z: nice :) | 22:54 |
| Mister_Death | its gave alot of extracting thing | 22:54 |
| MrObvious | mcphail: Oh, it's servers. Ok. | 22:54 |
| Mister_Death | Broadcom: | 22:54 |
| tawd | start, ok, then i need to search for how to create gui for python | 22:54 |
| Slart | beli: bad memory? hard drive problems? drunken people hex editing?.. it's not a normal thing | 22:54 |
| ChosenOne | Mathman: so my guess seems right? it's a "virtual server", gonna contact my provider then. | 22:54 |
| tawd | slart, ok, then i deed to search for how to create gui for python | 22:55 |
| Master_Z | douye: the folder on the desktop is called rtl8185, how would I redirect it to that? | 22:55 |
| douye | master_z: now the next step, lemme figure it out :P | 22:55 |
| beli | Slart: what is normal? ;) | 22:55 |
| Master_Z | douye: ok. | 22:55 |
| mcphail | MrObvious: Basically, you can't trust https at the moment | 22:55 |
| ibleed | beli, that has only happened to me in the past when i had faulty hardware | 22:55 |
| douye | master_z: ah you need to go inside that folder uhm | 22:55 |
| Broadcom | Mister_Death, ?? | 22:55 |
| Slart | tawd: ask in #python, they might be able to help you find something good | 22:55 |
| douye | master_z: lets see.. | 22:55 |
| Mister_Death | Broadcom do you want me to put it in a paste bin to see what it say | 22:55 |
| tawd | slart, thanks | 22:55 |
| Broadcom | Mister_Death, no, just try wirelss | 22:55 |
| MrObvious | mcphail: Crap that is scary. What can you tell me so that I don't have to worry? Just wait a while or what? | 22:55 |
| Mister_Death | ok | 22:55 |
| Slart | beli: hehe.. well.. firefox crashing, pulseaudio hating me.. that's all normal.. apt-get segfaulting isn't =) | 22:56 |
| cylux | For some reason, if I try to use ncmpc, or mpc or mplayer or mpg123 to play a track, even rhythmbox, It will freeze up or won't play but in firefox, flash player works fine. | 22:56 |
| beli | Slart, ibleed: this is indeed an old box....so lemme do what we never do: reboot | 22:56 |
| mcphail | MrObvious: probably best to remain scared/careful for the timebeing | 22:56 |
| * mcphail puts on his tinfoil hat | 22:56 | |
| Slart | beli: have you tried "sudo apt-get install reinstall apt" ? perhaps use a cd-rom as source if you can't make it play nice with the internet repos | 22:56 |
| douye | master_z: cd /home/zach/Desktop/rtl8185 | 22:57 |
| MrObvious | mcphail: Great. :\ I guess I'll stay off my online banking and e-mail until then. | 22:57 |
| ir1 | i have problem with the flash player on firefox,it doesn't play the music on videos.... | 22:57 |

| D3RGPS31 | I've switched to XFCE desktop, removed ubuntu-*, removed gnome-*, and installed Xubuntu-* wich installed some gnome features, how do i make it so the gnome desktop doesn't keep popping up as primary desktop? | 22:57 |
| Muelli | ir1: don't use flash :P | 22:57 |
| gretsch6151 | dang, i thought i put irc, aim, msn, yahoo, etc behind me years ago... who would've thought | 22:57 |
| Slart | ir1: many people have asked that question.. I don't have a good answer.. perhaps someone else knows | 22:57 |
| ibleed | ir1, installing libflashsupport fixed that problem for me in hardy | 22:58 |
| ir1 | and what should i use? | 22:58 |
| Broadcom | D3RGPS31, when you login, choose KDE | 22:58 |
| gnuskool_ | jo4, what type, is it ibm? | 22:58 |
| sea_wolf | can anyone help me with some "mounting" problems...? | 22:58 |
| D3RGPS31 | Broadcom: i don't have KDE | 22:58 |
| gretsch6151 | eww didn't like kde | 22:58 |
| Broadcom | irl: is it a ppc? | 22:58 |
| Mister_Death | nothing, Broadcom | 22:58 |
| Muelli | ir1: something sane. HTML has great support for embedding media | 22:58 |
| cylux | For some reason, if I try to use ncmpc, or mpc or mplayer or mpg123 to play a track, even rhythmbox, It will freeze up or won't play but in firefox, flash player works fine. | 22:58 |
| Broadcom | D3RGPS31, but you have xuubntu, right? | 22:58 |
| Broadcom | Mister | 22:58 |
| D3RGPS31 | Broadcom: yes | 22:58 |
| douye | master_z: are you in the right folder now ? | 22:59 |
| Broadcom | Mister_Death, sorry, hit enter, not tab | 22:59 |
| Slart | sea_wolf: hmm... if you promise never to put "mounting" in quotes like that... it looks.. naughty.. =) | 22:59 |
| Muelli | ir1: if you want to use flash, however, you might want to try swfdec as a free alternative. | 22:59 |
| Master_Z | douye: I installed ndisgtk earlier, and if you scroll down, someone says thry installed it by going to adminstration, windows wireless drivers, and browsed for the wireless file. I did so, and now its saying hardware present | 22:59 |
| Broadcom | D3RGPS31, that comes with kde | 22:59 |
| ir1 | thanks man | 22:59 |
| === sooty is now known as Bodsda | ||
| sea_wolf | can't mount certain drives, they're there, but it says there's a naming problem, "probably a / " | 22:59 |

| jo4 | gnuskool_, it's some sort of Eurosomething, cheap thing.. I tried regenerating xorg.conf, but obviously, gnome's using something else.. I i can just make the xserver send to the laptop's screen again | 22:59 |
| Master_Z | douye: its showing my wireless network!! | 22:59 |
| D3RGPS31 | Broadcom: through synaptic, it never said anything about KDE, it just used gnome packages | 22:59 |
| douye | master_z: nice ^^ | 22:59 |
| Broadcom | D3RGPS31, im an idiot, sorry, ignore me, thinking about Kubuntu | 22:59 |

| Master_Z | douye: this is awesome. brb gonna connect using it | 22:59 |

| Mastacheata | Hey there, grub complains about not finding stage2 or not reading correctly (depends on whether manually setting up or using grub-install), but it's definitely where it should be (/boot/grub/stage2) | 23:00 |
| mysticdarkhack | so what lappy is everyone using? | 23:00 |

| D3RGPS31 | I've installed XFCE with Xubuntu, removing Ubuntu and Gnome. Gnome's desktop takes over sometimes, how do i stop that? | 23:01 |
| sea_wolf | "mount_point cannot contain the following characters: newline, G_DIR_SEPARATOR (usually /) " | 23:01 |
| Slart | mysticdarkhack: and I actually think everything works on it.. without any extra work | 23:01 |
| sea_wolf | what does that mean?? | 23:01 |

| Fritzel | how can I find out which package contains a file? | 23:02 |
| mysticdarkhack | <ibleed>really.. and why not? | 23:02 |
| Slart | sea_wolf: ok.. when do you get this message? | 23:02 |
| Blahz | hello folks | 23:02 |
| gnuskool_ | jo4, on my ibm, i press the Fn +F7 key on startup and that alternates screens | 23:02 |
| bobbo85 | hi all, where can I find a list of options for launching firefox like %s? I'm trying to get links to launch in the background | 23:02 |

| sea_wolf | when I try and open the drive, click on it, it's not on me desktop either anymore! | 23:02 |
| fole | Today I updated to hardy. when I try to logon in gdm, after entering the user name the X server restarts. does anyone know of this issue? Maybe it has to do with the thinkfinger... | 23:03 |

| phoenix5002 | I'm trying to make a terminal open in my second workspace on startup. Is there anyway to do this with a script? OR, is there anyway to switch between active workspaces with the terminal? because then I could activate the second workspace run the terminal wait a bit and then switch back to the first. any ideas? | 23:03 |
| Slart | sea_wolf: ok.. have you tried setting mountpoints by right-clicking on the drive and going to properties? | 23:03 |
| ibleed | mysticdarkhack, because of the volume of people. if your laptop shopping a better question might be what laptop works well with ubuntu/linux. just my opinion | 23:03 |
| jo4 | gnuskool_, oh, that's really nice. but does the 'Screen Resolution' settings save in a .gnomesomething file? Cause replacing xorg.conf didn't do squat.. I'll check if i have a button | 23:03 |
| sea_wolf | won't let me mount the bloody drive....it doesn't give me "mountpoints" option. | 23:03 |
| Slart | mysticdarkhack: get a live cd and bring it to the store.. ask if you can try it before you buy it.. just to see if things work | 23:03 |
| owh | I need to compile madwifi drivers from source for a laptop. In the past I would use module-assistant to achieve this, which also keeps the module recompiled whenever a kernel update happens. Is this still the preferred method or are there other means? | 23:04 |
| Slart | sea_wolf: ok.. start gconf-editor from a terminal.. or alt+f2.. it doesn't matter | 23:04 |
| Bodsda | how can i log into my dads computer (VNC) ive enabled settings and things in System--> Preferences--> Remote Login but dont know what to do next | 23:04 |
| mysticdarkhack | <ibleed>true enough, but it good to experiment and see if ubuntu will work on all laptop | 23:04 |

| ubottu | Help with Broadcom bcm43xx can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WifiDocs/Driver/Broadcom43xx | 23:04 |
| Broadcom | Mister_Death, sorry, lost wireless for a sec | 23:04 |
| Mister_Death | oh, its cool | 23:04 |
| ibleed | mysticdarkhack, yes though its good to ask good questions :) that way everyone learns. | 23:05 |
| Blahz | bodsda, use remote connection | 23:05 |
| Bodsda | Blahz, is that a program? from terminal?? | 23:05 |
| gnuskool_ | jo4, nah it saves in xoeg.conf, you need to have the right parameters in it though, check ubuntuforums.org, lots of resolution and screen info on there | 23:05 |
| Blahz | no, it is an app | 23:05 |
| mysticdarkhack | <Slart>true but I'll be ordering my lappy online | 23:05 |
| sea_wolf | now what Slart? | 23:05 |
| Bodsda | Blahz, how do i run the app | 23:05 |
| Blahz | it uses UDP for windows remote desktop | 23:05 |
| owh | Bodsda: It's under Applications -> Internet | 23:06 |
| Slart | sea_wolf: go to system, storage, volumes | 23:06 |
| ibleed | owh, using module assistant to compile madwifi where it doesn't break during a kernel update sounds like a winning situation | 23:06 |
| mysticdarkhack | <ibleed>right on the money there | 23:06 |
| jo4 | gnuskool_, ok, i'll just make another temp user.. but the button was cool, ty ;D | 23:06 |
| sea_wolf | roger...and then? | 23:06 |
| Slart | sea_wolf: any folders there? | 23:06 |
| Bodsda | owh, cheers dude -- i set things up just didnt know how to actually log in -- lol,. cheers ;~) | 23:06 |
| owh | ibleed: Yeah, I was just checking to see if a new method had evolved that I wasn't aware of :) | 23:06 |
| sea_wolf | yes, the two I'm looking to mount. | 23:06 |
| Fishscene | Interesting. Why is VNC disabled on the Terminal Server Client? | 23:07 |
| owh | Fishscene: Because you need to install the bits. | 23:07 |
| Slart | sea_wolf: if you click on the volumes you might see the key "mount point" on the right half | 23:07 |
| mysticdarkhack | trying to compile a newer kernel is a pain when it ubuntu specification | 23:07 |
| owh | Fishscene: It's like a plug-in from memory. | 23:07 |
| Fishscene | owh, Understood. Where might I get the packages? | 23:07 |
| sea_wolf | what should I be changing them to Slart? | 23:07 |
| Finiras | how do i close a channel in ksirc, and where can i find the channel list? | 23:07 |
| Slart | sea_wolf: the mountpoint should only be one word.. no / \ etc | 23:07 |
| owh | Fishscene: One mo | 23:07 |
| sea_wolf | anything imparticular I DON'T want to do? | 23:07 |
| Slart | sea_wolf: see any ones that contain bad characters? | 23:07 |
| Slart | sea_wolf: nah.. if you have to, you can just remove these folders.. and recreate them.. no big deal | 23:08 |
| mysticdarkhack | anyway, i'm off | 23:08 |
| mysticdarkhack | later all | 23:09 |
| sea_wolf | I changed the "/media/Backup" to just " Backup " | 23:09 |
| Slart | sea_wolf: correct.. it adds the media part by itself | 23:09 |
| Finiras | where do i find the channel list on ksirc | 23:09 |
| Slart | sea_wolf: I don't know if you have to restart for this to take effect.. but try mounting the drive now | 23:09 |
| sea_wolf | right then. let's see. | 23:09 |
| jberg | where is the file which says which modules to load? i need to uncomment the lines that load the ssb module | 23:10 |
| Slart | jberg: /etc/modprobe.d/ somewhere in there perhaps | 23:10 |
| owh | Fishscene: If I recall correctly you also need to install vncviewer. | 23:10 |
| Master_1 | douye: it worked! I am connected, and I have internet. Thanks so much. | 23:10 |
| Fishscene | ahok | 23:10 |

| jberg | Slart: is it the alias file? | 23:11 |
| laeg | can i make an application execute a bash command that isn't related to the application everytime i run it? | 23:11 |
| Master_1 | douye: Linux rocks. Because of my suggestion of wubi, all the lab computers in my school are dual booting xp and hardy heron :P | 23:12 |
| Slart | jberg: I'm not sure..but there are blacklist files and such in there.. seems like a logical place for it to be | 23:12 |
| douye | master_1: haha :P dont think they will do that as my school gets all the software from microsoft | 23:12 |
| TelnetManta | can anyone tell me how to fix my display with xfce from a terminal? | 23:13 |
| Master_1 | douye: lol. my IT teacher loves open source. anyway, g2g. thanks again. | 23:13 |

| jberg | anyways, im trying to get ndiswrapper to work with the windows drivers for my network card. i do ndiswrapper -i to insert them, but when i do ndiswrapper -l to list it says driver installed but, alternate driver: ssb | 23:13 |
| cylux | Hey, how do I disablew indow borders around gterm? | 23:13 |
