Coiotes | I'm having problems getting my computer to record input from my mic. I can hear myself speak through my speakers/headset, but no program will record my mic. I has ALSA set as output, OSS set as input in sound settings. Any ideas, anyone? | 00:04 |
Masterof9puppets | How do I check zvacet? | 00:04 |
Masterof9puppets | And how do I install the w32 codecs, I'm not sure if I have already zvacet | 00:05 |
Slart_ | !w32codecs | Masterof9puppets | 00:05 |
ubottu | Masterof9puppets: medibuntu is a repository of packages that cannot be included into the Ubuntu distribution for legal reasons - See http://www.medibuntu.org | 00:05 |
CH1C0 | coites, edit>preferences, then check everything | 00:05 |
Masterof9puppets | I already have medibuntu | 00:05 |
Slart_ | Masterof9puppets: then "sudo apt-get install w32codecs" should do it | 00:06 |
bthornton | Does Ubuntu hardy have support for online ext3 filesystem resizing? | 00:06 |
dragonlotus | hey all. aplay -l shows my nvidia 2 onboard sound, alsamixer shows everything unmuted. Headphones still aren't making any noise. Any ideas? | 00:06 |
Coiotes | v_v | 00:06 |

Masterof9puppets | "Package w32codecs is not available" Slart | 00:06 |

Masterof9puppets | Slart_: I dont think so... | 00:07 |
Masterof9puppets | ompaul, I already have that installed | 00:07 |
Slart_ | Masterof9puppets: what does "lsb_release -a" in a terminal tell you? | 00:07 |
rhin0x | I am having trouble updating fron gutsy to edgy on x64 platform, the system complains about libnet1 and then kills the update process any idea please? | 00:07 |
CH1C0 | virtualbox | 00:08 |
TuniX12 | onisciente: you mean virtualizing? | 00:08 |
ompaul | Masterof9puppets, sudo apt-get install libdvdcss2 | 00:08 |
Slart_ | Masterof9puppets: or rather.. what does "uname -a" tell you | 00:08 |
zvacet | Masterof9puppets : in synaptic in seaarch box type name of package for example w32 and if you see green box on the left of package then package is installed if box is white then it is not installed | 00:08 |
Lokka | hello, i upgrade my gutsy to hardy and i cant install wine 1r4 | 00:09 |

ompaul | Lokka, and when you do apt-cache policy wine what version do you see? | 00:10 |
afallenhope | however, my DVD looks wierd.. I get blips everywhere... | 00:10 |
Masterof9puppets | zvacet: its not even in there | 00:10 |

IndyGunFreak | Wolphie: what video device? | 00:11 |
TuniX12 | onisciente: is that possible? | 00:11 |
zvacet | Masterof9puppets : gedit /etc/apt/sources.list just to see if you added medibuntu repo | 00:11 |
Wolphie | nVidia 8600GT | 00:11 |
Slart_ | Masterof9puppets: that x86_64 at the end means you're running 64bit ubuntu.. there is a 64bit package called w64codecs.. try that one instead | 00:11 |
ompaul | lejon, a screwdriver it the best way - you can identify lots if you know the make and model of the machine in some cases | 00:11 |
rhin0x | Trying to update from gutsy to hardy complains about libnet1 and kills the update process on x64 platform, need advice, please | 00:11 |
onisciente | Tunix12: I heard it is. There is something called Xen. | 00:12 |
soldats | Pwhdavey: open firefox and type in the address bar "about:plugins" and see if flash is listed there | 00:12 |
IndyGunFreak | Wolphie: is it a dualhead card, or do you have two separate cards, or what? | 00:12 |

IndyGunFreak | Wolphie: not a panel.. Look in System/Admin/Hardware Drivers.. (tsa menu), do you have Nvidia drivers enabled | 00:15 |
sudobash | magic packet/wake on lan | 00:15 |
Slart_ | ajitam: I don't know if there is a way by using ssh.. but I think you can send a "magic packet" to the network card.. that wakes the computer up if the hardware allows it | 00:15 |
zvacet | Masterof9puppets : in terminal type gedit /etc/apt/sources.list and scroll and look if medibuntu is there (most of the tome it is at the bottom of page) | 00:16 |

patifa | (and if so, how?) | 00:16 |
Wolphie | Yes, i don't see that menu | 00:16 |
IndyGunFreak | patifa: it doesn't work well . | 00:16 |
IndyGunFreak | at least in my opinion. | 00:17 |
OrcKhsu | Zaiden: no problem, that version is a .deb file, just straight forward install, follow the prompt (it might prompt you to set up a user in the vbox usergroup, just click through) | 00:17 |
IndyGunFreak | Wolphie: what versio of ubuntu are you using? | 00:17 |
patifa | IndyGunFreak, I've got the super wide desktop thing going on | 00:17 |
Wolphie | I only see anything relating to drivers being Restricted Driver Manager | 00:17 |
Wolphie | 7.10 Desktop | 00:17 |
TuniX12 | onisciente: Xen maybe used on personal computers that run Linux but also have Windows installed. Traditionally, such systems are used in a dual boot setup, but with Xen it is possible to start Windows "in a window" from within Linux, effectively running applications from both systems at | 00:17 |
IndyGunFreak | patifa: same here.. | 00:17 |
IndyGunFreak | patifa: twinview is really the best... | 00:17 |
Zaiden | OrcKhsu: It's says "Failed to install" and opens up the black terminal window, but nothing appears | 00:18 |
IndyGunFreak | Wolphie: look in restricted driver manager, you're using an old version of Ubuntu, in the current version, its called Hardware drivers" | 00:18 |
Wolphie | Oh ok sorry | 00:18 |
Wolphie | Ok i've got it open | 00:18 |
IndyGunFreak | Wolphie: does it show the nvidia driver is enabled? | 00:18 |
patifa | IndyGunFreak, well I'm using ATI | 00:19 |
Wolphie | I have the nVidia accelerated graphics driver enabled | 00:19 |

Fishe1 | hello, I'm having a little trouble with a multiseat and usb disk | 00:19 |
patifa | The functionality is already so close. You can already move a window to the next workspace. It would only make sense that that second workspace be another monitor. | 00:19 |
dragonlotus | I don't understand why my sound isn't working. Soundcard is listed under aplay, and all channels unmuted. Any ideas? | 00:19 |

Hemebond | ajhtiredwolf_: Yes, apparently it is possible. | 00:37 |
ajhtiredwolf_ | Hemebond: do you know how though? :-P | 00:37 |
Hemebond | ajhtiredwolf_: Google. | 00:37 |
IndyGunFreak | Masterof9puppets: try installing audacious, see if it works | 00:37 |
Hemebond | ajhtiredwolf_: I've never bothered to do it myself. | 00:37 |
ajhtiredwolf_ | Hemebond: which is what ive been doing with no luck, so i asked here | 00:37 |

afallenhope | Hemebond: what's * because that got removed after I removed when I removed that driver | 00:39 |
Hemebond | afallenhope: That's a wrapper package that contains/requires other Gnome packages. | 00:39 |

morgan555 | I have been having a problem with firefox closing whenever a Youtube type video starts, I can restore previous session play one video and repeat if I want to watch another video | 00:39 |
afallenhope | Hemebond: I'm not going to lose the GUI am I? | 00:40 |
Hemebond | afallenhope: Not usually. Easy to reinstall though. | 00:40 |
afallenhope | Hemebond: to would I reinstall it? | 00:40 |
afallenhope | sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop ? | 00:40 |
Hemebond | afallenhope: If it's just removed ubuntu-desktop then you're fine; it doesn't contain anything itself. | 00:40 |
Laurenceb | ok, what should I look for in session preferences? | 00:40 |

Hemebond | Laurenceb: Anything you're not using. | 00:41 |
afallenhope | Hemebond: how would I reinstall it? | 00:42 |
Hemebond | afallenhope: sudo aptitude install ubuntu-desktop | 00:42 |
afallenhope | oh..what's the different apt-get and aptitude? | 00:42 |
afallenhope | or is it the same? | 00:42 |
Hemebond | afallenhope: Similar but aptitude is better. | 00:42 |
HardDisk | !better | 00:43 |
ubottu | Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task. It's up to you to choose, depending on your preferences, features you require, and other factors. Do NOT take polls in the channel. If you insist on getting people's opinions, ask BestBot in #ubuntu-bots. | 00:43 |
DIL | how can i upgrade from 6.06 to 6.10 to 7.04 t0 7.10 ...... don't ask? | 00:43 |
SeaPhor | i am trying to mount an extra sata drive, i have 3 160gb sata drives, 1 has /, /home, and swap on it, the other 2 are fresh-formatted to ext3, fstab says the one with /, /home, and swap is dev/sdb1-6, but fdisk -l says dev/sda, and dev/sdb are clear and dev/sdc has 1-6 and the /, /home, and swap,,, so which is right? | 00:43 |
Hemebond | Anyway, I'm off to reinstall Ubuntu onto an existing RAID0 partition. | 00:43 |
IndyGunFreak | DIL: you should be able to go from 6.06 to 8.04, since they are both LTS | 00:43 |
HardDisk | DIL, technically you can, but be prepared to have things breaking. backup backup backup, the best suggestion is to do a clean install. | 00:43 |
Hemebond | Actually... I might burn a LiveCD first. | 00:43 |
HardDisk | ah he's on 6.06.. | 00:44 |
HardDisk | sorry, late night :) | 00:44 |
prabu | hello | 00:44 |

HardDisk | DIL, but backup still. | 00:44 |
prabu | how to get kiba dock ? | 00:44 |
m0u5e | DIL: i would just recommend reformatting the system, you will get a cleaner install | 00:44 |
IndyGunFreak | yes, definitely back up | 00:44 |
ajhtiredwolf_ | Hemebond: do you know, is there supposed to be a Input and Output listening under ALSA in the audio settings in the wine cfg. I have wave out and in, midi out and in, but no regular out and in | 00:44 |
HardDisk | hey IndyGunFreak | 00:44 |
IndyGunFreak | !upgrade | DIL | 00:44 |
m0u5e | DIL: back up data + reformat is infinitely faster than upgrade | 00:44 |
ubottu | DIL: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes | 00:44 |

megahealth | oh sorry | 00:44 |
Masterof9puppets | Is there anyone that can enter a query with me about this? | 00:44 |
IndyGunFreak | HardDisk: understood, likewise. | 00:44 |
m0u5e | DIL: an upgrade would take hours, a back up and reformat will take the time took to back up + 20 minutes | 00:45 |
HardDisk | almost 3am, so I will only stay for a bit | 00:45 |
prabu | any 1 knows how to get kiba dock ? | 00:45 |
Hemebond | ajhtiredwolf_: Wine settings should be fine. Can you record in "Sound Recorder"? | 00:45 |
IndyGunFreak | m0u5e: i agree w/ that.. i never upgrade, but if he's gonna upgrade, going from 6.06 to 8.04 will be easiest | 00:45 |
m0u5e | DIL: not only will you have a clean install, but you're won't have possible breaks / overlapping applications | 00:45 |
HardDisk | m0u5e, he may be running a server, therefore an upgrade may be better for him, he has to decide. | 00:45 |
DIL | i have 8.04 but it would not install on an old system so i went back to 6.04 which installed ok so working the hard way to 8.04 | 00:45 |
m0u5e | DIL: like HardDisk said, its up to you :), if you're running a server it may be the best course of action... | 00:46 |
lejon | anyone here with good knowledge about ln and symlinks? | 00:46 |
IndyGunFreak | DIL: if you have all your important files backed up, i'd just do a clean install.; | 00:46 |
Hemebond | lejon: I've used them. | 00:46 |
jrib | lejon: best to just ask the channel your question | 00:46 |
ajhtiredwolf_ | Hemebond: hmmm no i cant, i can hear myself though the speakres though | 00:46 |
Hemebond | ajhtiredwolf_: Ah. You need to get recording working there first. | 00:46 |
lejon | Well my question was if someone knew stuff about them | 00:47 |
IndyGunFreak | DIL: how old is this machine? | 00:47 |
hypoon | hey guys. anyone know how I can read jackmidi from an alsamidi program? | 00:47 |
lejon | The man page doesn't say me that much, so I'd appreciate if someone explained it to me | 00:47 |
Hemebond | lejon: They're links but they're fking awesome. | 00:47 |

jrib | lejon: that's the question you should ask. symbolic links are like shortcuts, one file points to another | 00:48 |
lejon | Hemebond, I know, but I have no idea how to set them up, I have known but that was 2 years ago when I had linux in school :P | 00:48 |

HardDisk | Hemebond, it's ubuntu's official channel, so yes. | 00:48 |
IndyGunFreak | DIL: how much ram?.. that should support 8.04 fine | 00:48 |
lejon | jrib I know how I should ask a question on what they are, but I wanted to know if someone used them and then ask my question to that dude ;) | 00:48 |
DIL | IndyGunFreak: 284 | 00:48 |
HardDisk | DIL, you may have issues with GUI, you might want to try xfce/flux/e17 | 00:49 |

Hemebond | HardDisk: Okay. Windows is dog-doody. | 00:49 |

HardDisk | SeaPhor, did you run sudo fdisk -l ? | 01:05 |
TuniX12 | yes | 01:05 |
Wolphie | Is there any docs to configure it to detect the ipod? | 01:05 |
Hemebond | dhonn: Because Ubuntu included a Firefox beta with 8.04. | 01:05 |
dhonn | i never had any stability problems with firefox betas on windows ever | 01:06 |
HardDisk | Hemebond, it's RC3 now. | 01:06 |
TuniX12 | SeaPhor: testdisk will give you the right answer | 01:06 |
SeaPhor | HardDisk, yes,,, i have 3 160gb sata drives, 1 has /, /home, and swap on it, the other 2 are fresh-formatted to ext3, fstab says the one with /, /home, and swap is dev/sdb1-6, but fdisk -l says dev/sda, and dev/sdb are clear and dev/sdc has 1-6 and the /, /home, and swap,,, so which is right? | 01:06 |
Hemebond | HardDisk: It corrupts my profile every time I close it which is why I'm going to reinstall Ubuntu from scratch. | 01:06 |
SeaPhor | TuniX12, Thank you, i will try that after a reboot, so all is clean | 01:06 |
HardDisk | Hemebond, just rm your .mozilla folder. | 01:06 |
cn28h1 | reinstalling ubuntu sounds a little overkill | 01:07 |
Hemebond | HardDisk: Done it all. Corrupts toolbars every time it's closed/opened. | 01:07 |
Hemebond | I'm off to reinstall. | 01:07 |
HardDisk | I know him | 01:07 |
benkay | I hope he's not actually reinstalling. | 01:07 |
HardDisk | a known troll | 01:07 |

gaintsura | anyone know of a time tracking program that allows exporting via csv or text? | 01:08 |
benkay | What do you mean by a "time tracking program"? | 01:08 |
garrett__ | benkay: tracking how much time you put in on a project | 01:08 |
gaintsura | a program that logs time spent on whatever, similar to toggl.com's app | 01:08 |
brandan_ | How do i install themes? I clicked on GDM themes on gnome look and it downloads and its in a .zip ...Do i place the files somewhere or what? thank u :-) | 01:08 |

dracula_ | hello all | 01:11 |
benkay | illriginal: ffmpeg or mencoder would probably do the trick, if you are not afraid of the commandline. | 01:11 |
illriginal | <,< benkay there's no specific program that can do this? | 01:12 |
illriginal | I would have to ffmpeg commands to convert? | 01:12 |

afallenhope | akahige: that's the issue ;) I have the same problem. | 01:18 |
benkay | illriginal: try the burning to CD thing if you are really confused. The site I pointed you two wants you to write that little script to a file, like "convertmymusic.sh". Then make the file executable with "chmod u+x convertmymusic.sh". Finally, move the file to the directory with your wma files and run it with "./convertmymusic.sh" | 01:18 |
akahige | afallenhope -- is there any kind of fix. this sucks. | 01:18 |

SeaPhor | ok, testdisk agreed with fdisk -l, /dev/sdb has no partitions and sdc has 1-6, not sdb. so how do i edit fstab and tell it that cause it is calling the /, /home, swap, and ntfs /dev/sdb1-6??? | 01:21 |
benkay | brandan_: what program are you using now, and what additional functionality are you looking for? | 01:21 |
Masterof9puppets | Thanks afallenhope | 01:22 |
garrett__ | SeaPhor: just edit /etc/fstab | 01:22 |

spanther | hello there :) i want to know how long this "scrollkeeper-update" runs at 100.0% CPU ? | 01:27 |
benkay | spanther: depends on the size of your filesystem. Despite appearences, it runs at low processor priority and so shouldn't slow you down very much. | 01:28 |
spanther | benkay, just wanted to ask if everythings fine :) (sometimes things turned 100% because of a bug you know) | 01:28 |
spanther | but now it was going down at 4% so i think its fine for now right? | 01:29 |

benkay | spanther: unless you're computer is overheating, I wouldn't worry about it. Scrollkeeper only runs periodically and will stop on its own. | 01:30 |
spanther | yup it stopped two minutes ago | 01:30 |
spanther | its a tower so no overheating :) | 01:30 |

benkay | brandan_: Yes, I can. (Also, feel free to PM me.) It looks like either the zip file you are trying to open is corrupt, or it has been split across multiple files, of which you are missing one or more. | 01:38 |
jason | do i put that in terminal | 01:38 |

jrib | jason: you need to use chmod/chown on the mounted location, *not* /dev/blah | 01:48 |

blundr | Hi all, i got grub error 15'd (tried usual tactics to no avail). What i did: backed up /boot to / and after reformatting /boot to ext2 put those back, adjusted new UUID for /boot in /etc/fstab and rebooted. Lost ubuntu so I'm considering reinstalling from live CD. Is there any documentation available on how to do that while preserving my present partition scheme ? TIA | 01:49 |
matsdb | is xmms removed from the reposities? | 01:49 |

ahboy | any ideas? | 01:49 |
eboyjr | benkay: I think I did a long time ago... Let me try again. | 01:50 |
matsdb | jrib, why is it removed? :/ | 01:50 |
LtL | matsdb: xmms is gone, check out adacious | 01:50 |
jrib | jason: no, by "chmod/chown" I meant: Use the commands chmod and chown appropriately to set the permissions you want (procedure is explained in the link ubottu sent you) | 01:50 |
LtL | matsdb: audacious, sorry. | 01:50 |
jrib | !xmms | matsdb | 01:50 |
ubottu | matsdb: For the reason why xmms is no longer in the hardy repositories see: http://bugs.debian.org/461309 . Consider using audacious instead. | 01:50 |

Flannel | Guest42: Basically youre changing the owner and the group on all the files in .kde (-R is for recursive) back to yourself | 02:29 |
deinspanjer | Guest42: sudo instructs the shell to run the following command as the super user. chown is the command to change ownership. -R is the recursive flag. jacob:jacob is the user and group name to change the ownership to. ~ expands to your home directory. /.kde is a hidden directory under your home directory containing KDE related configuration files. | 02:29 |
soldats | Guest42: its a permission problem, that command changes it so you can access your files. in order for it to run you need permissions, the only suggestion i have thus far is sudo chown -R jacob:jacob ~/home/jacob | 02:30 |

Since I upgraded to Hardy, whenever the separate user logs in after my user's session is locked, it comes to a point when that separate user automatically leaves its session, goes to the gdm screen, re-authenticates and continues with its session while mine is killed. Any clues? | 02:51 |
Impiety | well under device just add "driver "nvidia" | 02:51 |

HardDisk | meoblast001, do you have the proper drivers installed? and did you check to see if ALL the hardware is compatible? if its an AIO device | 02:56 |
whik | HardDisk no error is showing | 02:57 |

nerdydude20 | Is there anyone out there that would like to try a service that checks if your IP address(es) is on an RBL and email/SMS messages you daily/weekly? It's sorta beta right now. | 03:06 |
afallenhope | HardDisk: but I don't have "KDE" as a selection. | 03:07 |
eboyjr | HardDisk: I mentioned Live CD because that's where the defaults come from. | 03:07 |
HardDisk | nerdydude20, #ubuntu-offtopic | 03:07 |
nerdydude20 | kthx | 03:07 |
rob_ | afallenhope: you just choose which on the login screen (choose session i think) | 03:07 |
* nickrud is slow! | 03:07 | |
HardDisk | eboyjr, if you install then all the defaults are installed too | 03:07 |
IndyGunFreak | afallenhope: then you need to install it.. sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop | 03:07 |
IndyGunFreak | afallenhope: then it will be a choice under sessions | 03:07 |
gluonman | I'm having a problem with Firefox. I can't play an online game because it's missing plugins. Another site is telling me that I need to install Java.

IndyGunFreak | afallenhope: just be warned, KDE has been known to cause hives and seizures in its users, :) | 03:08 |
PapaJDub | afallenhope scroll to the bottom of this page http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/kdegnome and there are instructions for kde on ubuntu or gnome on kbunutu | 03:08 |

HardDisk | eboyjr, you want to default back, each application works different | 03:08 |
Impiety | no | 03:08 |
Impiety | i don't know how to fix it | 03:09 |
HardDisk | eboyjr, apps mostly revert back to default if you delete their .hiddenfolder in your home | 03:09 |

NorthLioness | HardDisk: It says that AIGLX is default for ubuntu | 03:09 |
eboyjr | HardDisk: Do you know how to revert to default of Ubuntu's video drivers and setup only? | 03:09 |
gluonman | HardDisk, I already have ubuntu-restricted-extras installed. | 03:09 |
whik | how do i load a game via terminal in usr/local/games | 03:09 |
whik | whould i just cd there | 03:09 |
HardDisk | eboyjr, sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg | 03:09 |
HardDisk | whik, no the game should have made a link in your home dir | 03:10 |
gluonman | HardDisk, I only started having this problem after I upgraded to Hardy Heron. Somehow I cannot access any kind of online java-based game or anything like that. | 03:10 |
eboyjr | HardDisk: For me, all that does is setup the keyboard stuff... | 03:10 |
HardDisk | whik, or if you installed it via apt then its in your games folder under applications | 03:10 |
PapaJDub | gluonman does it tell you what plugin you need? | 03:10 |
Malik_ | o man | 03:10 |
UbuntuLost | test | 03:10 |

whik | i didnt know the command to install via apt | 03:10 |
rob_ | gluonman: you didnt happen to downgrade to 2.0 did you? | 03:11 |
HardDisk | whik, go to add/remove or in administration/synaptic | 03:11 |
gluonman | PapaJDub, one sight led me to a link to install Java. But it just installed a .bin file that does nothing. Other sites say "missing plugins" but have nothing listed. | 03:11 |

UbuntuLost | thanks in adv | 03:11 |
IndyGunFreak | Malik_: well, its probably not recognizing your ethernet device, would be my first guess.. | 03:11 |
rob_ | gluonman: did you install forefox 2, gutsy comes with FF3 | 03:11 |
Malik_ | wat do u mean ethernet device? | 03:12 |
Malik_ | like the modem | 03:12 |

Malik_ | wat key is that after : lspci | 03:15 |
mecha | papajdub: nope | 03:15 |
afallenhope | so what your saying is that installing them together is bad? | 03:15 |
IndyGunFreak | HardDisk: he mentioned he had a router though, so he should be able to get online automatically through a router. | 03:15 |
meoblast001 | im trying to set up a scanning service for my print server and im getting Failed to open device 'brother2:bus5;dev1'; Error during device I/O. how do i fix this? | 03:15 |
HardDisk | wormeater, did you check http://localhost:631/ | 03:15 |
rob_ | gluonman okay, then you have java runtime 6 installed in add/remove then right? | 03:15 |
HardDisk | IndyGunFreak, unless it's set to static | 03:16 |
IndyGunFreak | Malik_: its the straight line over \ | 03:16 |
wormeater | i'll check | 03:16 |
IndyGunFreak | hmm. | 03:16 |
=== nemo_ is now known as duck-man | ||
gluonman | rob_, let me check. | 03:16 |
wormeater | only checked in epson website... no driver for linux and it's predocesors | 03:16 |
IndyGunFreak | Malik_: do you have DSL? | 03:16 |
HardDisk | Malik_, would you like a guide to read about computer shorcuts and keys? | 03:16 |
haydos | I'm having problems with advanced desktop effects (compiz) | 03:16 |
|Juan| | I have a main user whos session I keep always open. Then I have a separate users for anyone else who wants to use the computer. Since I upgraded to Hardy, whenever the separate user logs in after my user's session is locked, it comes to a point when that separate user automatically leaves its session, goes to the gdm screen, re-authenticates and continues with its session while mine is killed. Any clues? | 03:16 |
Malik_ | o so this | | 03:16 |
IndyGunFreak | Malik_: correct | 03:16 |
ronin1234 | anyone know anything about the 8.04 install droping to busybox/initramfs? | 03:16 |

meoblast001 | my scanner wont work =( | 03:16 |
Malik_ | i hav a modem and a rotuer the modem connects with ethernet | 03:16 |
HardDisk | !tab | wormeater | 03:16 |

sprecker | i installed env24 controll and nothing but Totem will play audio anymore | 03:17 |
haydos | I'm having problems with advanced desktop effects (compiz)... can anyone help me out? | 03:17 |
ronin1234 | so at the moment 8.04 won't even install | 03:17 |
gluonman | rob_, Sun Java 6 Runtime is installed. | 03:17 |
IndyGunFreak | Malik_: right, do you know if you have a static IP address, or is it DHCP? | 03:17 |
Malik_ | idk | 03:17 |
duck-man | hey I'm having some trouble with the css decryptor, i get to step 2 of the help site: https://help.ubuntu.com/8.04/musicvideophotos/C/video.html#video-dvd then it says error 404 cant connect(thingy) how to fix? | 03:17 |
Malik_ | i hav rogers internet...lol | 03:17 |
IndyGunFreak | Malik_: do you know how to log into your router | 03:17 |
HardDisk | wormeater, I checked you can use the driver of the C68 or the C79 | 03:17 |
blundr | benkay: succes !! Really appreciate your help and your patience :) | 03:17 |
wormeater | ow... nice... :) | 03:17 |

rob_ | gluonman, try to uninstall it and apply and then install it again and apply | 03:18 |
Starnestommy | haydos: what problems? | 03:18 |
HardDisk | good luck Indy | 03:18 |
IndyGunFreak | Malik_: boot ubuntu, and try to log into your router, most likely, if you can log into your router, that will most likely rule out your ethernet device being detected. | 03:18 |
gluonman | rob_, alright. | 03:18 |
haydos | Well it's displaying this when I try to start it: | 03:18 |
IndyGunFreak | HardDisk: i was born lucky..lol | 03:18 |

wormeater | ok thanks... | 03:25 |
koshiie | i don't think so, i can check | 03:25 |
HardDisk | Malik_, no it works fine, check your router mate. | 03:26 |
Starnestommy | haydos: have you tried https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompositeManager/CompizFusionIntel ? | 03:26 |
* koshiie starts amarok | 03:26 | |
HardDisk | Malik_, make sure you're not using a crossover cable too | 03:26 |
Malik_ | crossover cable? | 03:26 |
Malik_ | wats that | 03:26 |
IndyGunFreak | HardDisk: he says he can't log in to the router, that makes me suspect the NIC | 03:26 |
IndyGunFreak | lol.. | 03:26 |
IndyGunFreak | *probably not | 03:26 |
HardDisk | IndyGunFreak, most probably. | 03:26 |
Anscombe | Lol I messed up my ubuntu installation, TAKE TWO! | 03:26 |
nickrud | UbuntuLost lost, you don't, the drivers are compiled against the running kernel. The ones in the live cd don't match (if that's what you're after) | 03:26 |
koshiie | i think it only happens in the application i'm trying to interact with :/ | 03:26 |
HardDisk | Malik_, in terminal type dmesg | 03:26 |
IndyGunFreak | HardDisk: *most probably*? i swear my english teacher probably just sat straight up in bed | 03:27 |
Malik_ | HardDisk: wats a cross over cab;e | 03:27 |
rob_ | gluonman, done yet? | 03:27 |
HardDisk | Malik_, /join #hardware | 03:27 |
koshiie | maybe there's some type of restriction in cpu usage for software? | 03:27 |
IndyGunFreak | Malik_: basically its a cable to connect two computers, instead of connecting a computer to a router or modem | 03:27 |
sh00p | Malik_, when pins 1 and 3, and 2 and 6 are crossed | 03:27 |
gluonman | rob_, sorry. Took a bathroom break. I uninstalled the java plugin and reinstalled it. It still doesn't work. | 03:27 |
UbuntuLost | <nickrud> nope I installed heron and then installed my Nvidia drivers Now I can't log into ubuntu I get the greywhite screen of deth | 03:27 |

Redian | Could someone point me in the right direction for mounting a network drive through samba? | 03:27 |
gluonman | Yes | 03:27 |
Jack_Sparrow | !samba | 03:28 |
ubottu | Samba is the way to cooperate with Windows environments. Links with more info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently and http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/serverguide/C/windows-networking.html - Samba can be administered via the web with SWAT. | 03:28 |
IndyGunFreak | !ask | UbuntuLost | 03:28 |
ubottu | UbuntuLost: 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. :-) | 03:28 |
marckie | !gnome-do | 03:28 |
ubottu | Factoid gnome-do not found | 03:28 |
HardDisk | Malik_, paste in pastebin.ca | 03:28 |
tech0007 | UbuntuLost: backup your xorg.conf, then add 'vesa' to use it atm | 03:28 |
rob_ | gluonman, o really, mind giving me the game link? | 03:28 |
nickrud | UbuntuLost boot into recovery mode, and run dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg | 03:28 |
Malik_ | HardDisk: wat | 03:28 |
UbuntuLost | thanks nickrud | 03:28 |
gluonman | rob_, http://www.freeaddictinggames.com/play/947.html | 03:28 |
PapaJDub | koshiie - i had the same problem and it was because of a known Flash issue. i.e. if i were to use firefox to check out youtube or something, and then pidgin, things would start to hose up until i issued a "killall pulseaudio" | 03:28 |
eboyjr | I have had no success... How do I find out which driver I'm using? | 03:28 |
Malik_ | HardDisk: iam not online on ubuntu | 03:28 |
IndyGunFreak | grey/white screen of death, i've not experienced that | 03:29 |
HardDisk | Malik_, wateely, paste the message in pastebin.com or pastebin.ca | 03:29 |
nickrud | UbuntuLost but tech0007 's way will work if you're comfortable editing system files | 03:29 |
HardDisk | Malik_, ok good luck man. | 03:29 |
rob_ | gluonman, doesnt work for me either | 03:29 |
koshiie | PapaJDub: so how did you fix it? | 03:29 |
clintchance | Ok i hope someone can help me. I followed some steps. ( i don't remember where) But it told me to login using a diferend session i think xfs or something like that but anyway, i got in and itdo some of the compiz stuffbut i can not click any of themenu items of any buttons and when i click on the desktop it takes screenshots and puts them on the desktop/ Anyone got a fix? | 03:29 |
HardDisk | Malik_, someone else can help you with your problems. | 03:29 |
gluonman | Does it tell you that you need a plugin? | 03:29 |
Malik_ | HardDisk: wat r u saying ot u want me to show u the message somehow | 03:29 |
PapaJDub | koshiie - if that is your problem, there's a fix which is to install flash 10 beta. but you should see if killing pulseaudio fixes you next time to confirm that that's your issue | 03:29 |
Malik_ | HardDisk: because I can | 03:29 |
IndyGunFreak | Malik_: its going to be very difficult to help you w/o you getting online | 03:29 |
rob_ | gluonman, yeah | 03:30 |
koshiie | PapaJDub: alright thanks a lot | 03:30 |
Malik_ | but thats wat ur helpin me with...? | 03:30 |
gluonman | rob_, you know, I just assumed youtube worked because it was working last night. But I just realized that I watched youtube last night before upgrading to Hardy. youtube isn't working for me. | 03:30 |
IndyGunFreak | Malik_: did you not test your internet connection on the live CD before installing? | 03:30 |
gluonman | Neither is games.yahoo.com | 03:30 |
whik | HardDisk, loki didnt have a installer and that page just had stuff that was out of date i got the game installed using the offiial linux installer my only problem is it wont start | 03:30 |
Malik_ | no | 03:30 |
IndyGunFreak | Malik_: well, i would chalk that up as mistake #1 | 03:30 |
HardDisk | whik, it's a bit outdated but supports lots of games just as well | 03:30 |
Malik_ | i hav a usb network adabpter to can u check if that would work if i giv u the make and model? | 03:30 |
HardDisk | whik, still with amarican army? did you follow the guide I posted? | 03:31 |

zaccour | brasero, k3b, and nerolinux won't do it | 03:31 |

IndyGunFreak | oh wait, nevermind, use avidemux | 03:32 |
whik | HardDisk, could you as so kind to post the guide again? | 03:32 |
zaccour | ashampoo does, but it won't install with wine | 03:32 |
tech0007 | zaccour: then burn it to dvd | 03:32 |
dr_Willis | zaccour, You will need to convert the video to a proper 'dvd' format. then burn it to dvd disk with any of the tools. Its the converting thats the hard part. | 03:32 |
zaccour | its a windows program | 03:32 |
zaccour | tried that, just made a data disc | 03:32 |
clintchance | Ok i hope someone can help me. I followed some steps.

eboyjr | hi | 03:35 |
ronin1234 | what exactly does ide_generic_all do and what was it that would have been stoping me from getting to install? | 03:36 |
eboyjr | How do I find out which video driver I'm using? (without looking at xorg.conf) | 03:36 |
HardDisk | zaccour, sudo apt-get install devede | 03:36 |
zaccour | where do i find amptitude? | 03:36 |
zaccour | oh ok, thanks | 03:36 |
IndyGunFreak | Malik_: you need to figure out which one you have.. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HardwareSupportComponentsWirelessNetworkCardsAirlink101 | 03:36 |
IndyGunFreak | Malik_: note the chipsets.. | 03:36 |
tech0007 | eboyjr: Xorg.0.log | 03:36 |
HardDisk | zaccour, run synaptic also via administration if you want a gui | 03:36 |
Malik_ | do wat? | 03:36 |
alden | ubottu: thank you, it worked | 03:36 |
ubottu | alden: Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 03:36 |
IndyGunFreak | Malik_: you need to figure out what specific model you have. | 03:36 |
IndyGunFreak | arlink101 is a generic name. | 03:36 |
DigitalNinja | I can't get Acquire::http::proxy "http://proxy:port"; to work. Is this option broken? | 03:37 |
nickrud | eboyjr look in /var/log/Xorg.0.log , it will tell you which driver is actually in use | 03:37 |
ronin1234 | i'd really be interested to know why i need boot options on new hardware | 03:37 |
Malik_ | i hav awll3025v2 | 03:37 |
eboyjr | nickrud: THanks | 03:37 |
eboyjr | again | 03:37 |

_ZeuZ_ | Hey guys, can somebody give me a hint on how to mount a SD card in a Motorola Z6? | 03:37 |
nickrud | eboyjr you're welcome ;) | 03:37 |
maquinax | does anyone know why evolution wont show my emails in html? it instead shows them in plain text | 03:37 |
alden | zaccour: in a terminal type "sudo aptitude install devede" | 03:37 |
zaccour | devede is installing right now | 03:37 |
zaccour | i just did thanks | 03:38 |
alden | zaccour: ok, have a good day | 03:38 |
Malik_ | i donot see the excat mdel as mine there | 03:38 |
HardDisk | whik, try over again. it does work I play it myself, just revise what you're doing wrong. | 03:38 |
|ns|nR8 | maquinax: loading html in email can be security risk | 03:38 |
zaccour | you too | 03:38 |
zaccour | nero is useless for burning avi files to dvd | 03:38 |
zaccour | i like ashampoo, but wine won't install it | 03:38 |
nickrud | !fud | |ns|nR8 | 03:38 |
ubottu | Factoid fud not found | 03:38 |
maquinax | |ns|nR8, yeah, i know thanks :) its email from my company, and everyone uses outlook its unreadable if i cant read it as html | 03:39 |
eboyjr | nickrud: What do I look for? | 03:39 |
zaccour | whats fud? | 03:39 |
IndyGunFreak | Malik_: are you using 64bit by chance? | 03:39 |
whik | HardDisk, kk ill reinstall it | 03:39 |
dr_Willis | zaccour, burning avi files to dvd.. and 'converting' avi files to 'dvd-video' are two TOTALLY different tasks. :) | 03:39 |
Malik_ | no | 03:39 |
IndyGunFreak | Malik_: ok | 03:39 |
zaccour | oh, i thought watching them on the disc were the same | 03:39 |
dr_Willis | zaccour, you dont find 'avi' files on a video-dvd. you will find other kinds of files. :) explore a video-dvd some time and see. | 03:40 |
IndyGunFreak | Malik_: reboot to Ubuntu, and insert your usb wireless device in the usb port.. then open a terminal, and run "lsusb" no quotes(thats an L).. write down how it identifies your wireless device | 03:40 |
zaccour | where is dvd stored by default? | 03:40 |
dr_Willis | zaccour, there are dvd players out that can play avi and other data files from a dvd disk. | 03:40 |
nickrud | eboyjr probably 300-400 lines in, there will be a section where the card gets recognized, and the xserver assigns a driver. like fglrx, nvidia, intel, or vesa for most people | 03:40 |
Malik_ | k | 03:40 |
tech0007 | maquinax: edit->preferences->mail preferences...HTML Messages..select HTML mode | 03:40 |
zaccour | i mean devede | 03:40 |
ronin1234 | so can anyone explaine ide_generic_all | 03:41 |
zaccour | where is devede stored by default? | 03:41 |
IndyGunFreak | Malik_: i would insert it before it completely boots... like when grub is on. | 03:41 |
Ashfire908 | I'm having issues with IPv6 routing, I don't think stuff is going to the right interface. | 03:41 |
Malik_ | k | 03:41 |
eboyjr | nickrud: Its vesa | 03:41 |
dr_Willis | zaccour, i would say che3ck the devede homepage/docs. I havent used it in ages.. the progarm gets installed to whever its supposed to go. run it with 'devede' command if you cant find its menu item | 03:41 |
Intrepid | Would someone be able to assist me in solving a problem with my dual-screen setup? | 03:41 |
Malik_ | but wats is grub i saw the grub loading thign before | 03:41 |
eboyjr | nickrud: I dont know why I told you | 03:41 |
nickrud | eboyjr to let me know you found what you were looking for ;) | 03:41 |
IndyGunFreak | Malik_: its the menu where you choos what OS you want to boot. | 03:42 |
jason | why want wmv. files play on ubuntu | 03:42 |
eboyjr | right ;) | 03:42 |
IndyGunFreak | Intrepid: what video device? | 03:42 |

Intrepid | I have dual screens working, but I've been attempting to add additional layouts. One in particular I'm having a problem now is getting the LCD to display a particular resolution but turning the CRT off completely. | 03:42 |
Intrepid | It works. The LCD displays the right resolution. But the terminal that appears has very, very small text. | 03:43 |
Slue_Gniffer | Anyone else's computer running really slow and choppy after an upgrade? | 03:43 |
IndyGunFreak | Intrepid: no idea on that, sorry.. try looking in nvidia-settings | 03:43 |
matthew_ | OK, I guess I'll try it out and see what happens, thanks Menza, IndyGunFreak | 03:43 |
IndyGunFreak | Slue_Gniffer: thats why i don't upgrade | 03:43 |
Intrepid | Okay, thanks. | 03:43 |
matthew_ | Intrepid, how did you get support for dual monitors? | 03:43 |
maquinax | tech0007, thanks, trying it now | 03:43 |
jason | intrepid use the front settings | 03:43 |
tech0007 | Intrepid: try changign the font size in terminal | 03:43 |
maquinax | tech0007, i remember to have tried that, and it not working, but i will try again | 03:44 |
zaccour | devede could not open image | 03:44 |
IndyGunFreak | matthew_: dual monitors is easy, with the right device | 03:44 |
Malik_ | alrite i see like Bus 001 to 005 | 03:44 |
Malik_ | i think we need the last 1 | 03:44 |
dr_Willis | zaccour, image? | 03:44 |
meeper | where does /etc/fstab send its errors? | 03:44 |
IndyGunFreak | Malik_: you should be able to tell which one is your wireless device | 03:44 |
Slue_Gniffer | IndyGunFreak: I ment update. | 03:44 |
Malik_ | the 005 one cause it says sometin about usb2 wifi | 03:44 |
Intrepid | I initially did use nvidia-settings to generate an xorg.conf that I modified. However what Indy said gave me an idea. I can just generate a new one and see what it says and then integrate that into my existing one. | 03:44 |
zaccour | i dragged and dropped and thats what it said | 03:44 |
IndyGunFreak | Malik_: "something about" isn't going to fix the problem.. i told you to write down exactly what it said | 03:44 |
matthew_ | IndyGunFreak, could you elaborate (my card is Nvidia Quadro NVS 140M) | 03:45 |
Malik_ | k | 03:45 |
IndyGunFreak | matthew_: its pretty easy.. is it a dualhead card? | 03:45 |

maquinax | tech0007, let me check my evolution version | 03:50 |
dr_Willis | Guest82733, its possible your video files could be in some odd video format it cant handle. Ive never tried drag/dropping into devede.. lets seel | 03:50 |
|Juan| | I have a main user whos session I keep always open. Then I have a separate users for anyone else who wants to use the computer. Since I upgraded to Hardy, whenever the separate user logs in after my user's session is locked, it comes to a point when that separate user automatically leaves its session, goes to the gdm screen, re-authenticates and continues with its session while mine is killed. Any clues? | 03:51 |
Guest82733 | its avi | 03:51 |
HardDisk | Guest82733, click add to files | 03:51 |
maquinax | tech0007, 2.22.2, let me try this again edit->preferences->mail preferences->html messages | 03:52 |
Guest82733 | add to files isn't on the list | 03:52 |
dr_Willis | Guest82733, 'its avi' means very very little. avi is a container.. it could be any of several 100 codec types | 03:53 |
dr_Willis | Guest82733, and drag/drop ing a video file to the right side listing. worked fine here. | 03:53 |
dr_Willis | Guest82733, you may need to install some extra codec packages. Depending on the exact codec of the video file. | 03:53 |

aceinthehole | Intrepd wm2? is that like fluxbox, kde, etc? I'm not familiar with that one | 04:11 |
dr_Willis | aceinthehole, jwm and icewm are also rather small window managers. :) depends on your needs. | 04:11 |

Intrepid | aceinthehole: It's just a window manager that gives you the ability move windows and resize them and not much beyond that. | 04:11 |
tech0007 | Anscombe: add 'nv' in xorg.conf | 04:11 |
Huevon | Intrepid: any other SP RPG? :) | 04:12 |
dr_Willis | aceinthehole, there are console based firewall config tools :) but i dont mess with firewalls much. | 04:12 |
SeaPhor | ingramFlash, i cheated and bought a card that works out of the box, i gave up, and maybe you will have better luck | 04:12 |
|Juan| | I have a main user whos session I keep always open. Then I have a separate users for anyone else who wants to use the computer. Since I upgraded to Hardy, whenever the separate user logs in after my user's session is locked, it comes to a point when that separate user automatically leaves its session, goes to the gdm screen, re-authenticates and continues with its session while mine is killed. Any clues? | 04:12 |
Guest19406 | i wanna use something open source instead, gnash didn't work for it | 04:12 |
Intrepid | Huevon: I cannot think of any that are open source offhand. Another good one that you could use with wine is Planescape Torment. | 04:13 |
pub | how do i get back to the main screen if im fullscreen in a game | 04:13 |
tech0007 | Guest19406: swfdec-mozilla ? | 04:13 |

Guest19406 | anyone know how to get DC++ to connect to the internet? I'm using a neighbor's wifi signal, don't know from where | 04:14 |
ingramFlash | Thanks, SeaPhor | 04:15 |
SeaPhor | ingramFlash, wish i had a better answer for you | 04:15 |
ingramFlash | I think I'm going to try to troubleshoot this, though, because I like my money more than I do my time lol | 04:15 |
Guest19406 | anyone know how to get DC++ to connect? | 04:16 |
Intrepid | Guest19406: I suspect you may be having issues with port forwarding. | 04:16 |
SeaPhor | ingramFlash, i have 2 of those on hand, so if you figure it out,,, let me know | 04:16 |
ingramFlash | SeaPhor: Will do. Wish me luck :) | 04:17 |
johnnypea | what could be a major mistake of blinking screen in the videos and games? I have this graphic card: 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc M24 1P [Radeon Mobility X600] | 04:17 |

Guest19406 | i'm trying to make my system a non non-free software system | 04:18 |
Intrepid | Guest19406: IIRC, DC++ is based on a client/server model. So you must know specifically who you wish to connect to. | 04:19 |
RadiantFire | obfuscation at Guest19406 ftw | 04:19 |
Guest19406 | trying to replace limewire with DC++, but can't seem to get it to connect | 04:19 |

Y-Town | Gnome Desktop Viewer is painfully slow linux to linux... Is there a way to make it better or is there another app thats better suited? | 04:19 |
RadiantFire | although its a gtk1 app | 04:19 |
RadiantFire | i think | 04:19 |
sh00p | bittorrent | 04:19 |
Guest19406 | and the mozilla plugin didn't work for youtube | 04:20 |
Guest19406 | i don't wanna use flash for youtube, unless i have to that is | 04:20 |
IndyGunFreak | Guest19406: well, you have to. | 04:21 |
* RadiantFire crosses his fingers that gnash will be awesome and functional and in 64 bit soon now that adobe has published specs | 04:21 | |

yuri_ | i've installed grub to usb key - i want to create a multi-boot usb key. As I understand it, I need 3 files from any iso: kernel, img and initrd. however, when i use those 3 files from, say a knoppix cd, the kernel starts but says it cannot find the disk image... any ideas? | 04:21 |
Guest19406 | and i wanna use an open source p2p program instead of limewire. | 04:22 |
IndyGunFreak | Guest19406: frostwire? | 04:22 |
Y-Town | Gnome Desktop Viewer is painfully slow linux to linux... Is there a way to make it better or is there another app thats better suited? Everything is pasty and slow in response | 04:22 |
yuri_ | Guest19406: check out gtk-gnutella | 04:22 |
Guest19406 | any ideas yall? | 04:22 |
dr_Willis | yuri_, check out that 'pendrivelinux' web site - it has tutorials on that topic | 04:22 |
yuri_ | dr_Willis: none on this topic | 04:22 |
Nutzebahn | Hi. Does anyone know of any decent SMS server programs for Ubuntu? (other than Kannel) | 04:23 |
Nutzebahn | or SMS gateways | 04:23 |
Nutzebahn | ? | 04:23 |
IndyGunFreak | Guest19406: http://www.frostwire.com | 04:23 |
dr_Willis | yuri_, you basicially need to configure grub to tell the kernel the proper place to look. That can be an issue because some machines 'move' around the drive letters if they boot from the usb gizmo, | 04:23 |
yuri_ | dr_Willis: the way i understand it, the usb key is hd0 if I boot from it | 04:24 |
dfree | Nutzebahn: google for sms email gateway there's a list shows the email gateway for most providers | 04:25 |

IndyGunFreak | nonewmsgs: uh.. install java? | 04:27 |
nonewmsgs | java is installed | 04:27 |
IndyGunFreak | nonewmsgs: weird, cuz the only time ive saw that message, is when I don't install java.. are you sure its installed?.. or do you just have JRE installed? | 04:27 |
nonewmsgs | hold on ill post it in pastebin | 04:27 |
stoffer | before I reinstalled kubuntu I had to install some codec or something that allowed kubuntu to play DVD's, since that functionality didn't come built in due to some legal reasons. What is that codec I need? | 04:28 |

Guest19406 | it installs but it doesn't boot. at least it didn't earlier this year anyway | 04:29 |
IndyGunFreak | Guest19406: probably because you didn't have java installed. | 04:30 |
Guest19406 | and doesn't frostwire use java? i thought java is proprietary | 04:30 |
deinspanjer | Hi, I'm using a static IP and I'd like to disable dhclient but so far I've only found instructions on how to uninstall it which I'd rather not do if I don't have to.. | 04:30 |
IndyGunFreak | nonewmsgs: i think your problem is summed up on line 27 | 04:30 |
Guest19406 | i had limewire, so i had java installed | 04:30 |
nonewmsgs | IndyGunFreak, so i should tget the other jre too? | 04:30 |
IndyGunFreak | dunno | 04:30 |
IndyGunFreak | nonewmsgs: hold on a sec. | 04:30 |
|Juan| | I have a main user whos session I keep always open. Then I have a separate users for anyone else who wants to use the computer. Since I upgraded to Hardy, whenever the separate user logs in after my user's session is locked, it comes to a point when that separate user automatically leaves its session, goes to the gdm screen, re-authenticates and continues with its session while mine is killed. Any clues? | 04:30 |
IndyGunFreak | nonewmsgs: open synaptic.. and do a search for sun | 04:31 |
IndyGunFreak | nonewmsgs: and here's the packages i have... sun-java6-bin, sun-java6-demo, sun-java6-jdk, sun-java6-jre, sun-java6-plugin, sun-java6-source | 04:32 |
IndyGunFreak | install all those, and see if frostwire works | 04:32 |
Guest19406 | is there anything for youtube that works like flash thats free? | 04:32 |
IndyGunFreak | Guest19406: youv'e asked that question like 12x, the answer hasn't changed in 10min | 04:32 |
IndyGunFreak | the simple answer is no | 04:32 |
Guest19406 | i can't seem to find anything that will make youtube work without flash. gnash and the mozilla plugin didn't work | 04:34 |
IndyGunFreak | Guest19406: and you won't. | 04:34 |
sh00p | youtube is for the birds | 04:34 |
Guest19406 | ok thanks | 04:34 |
Guest19406 | the birds? | 04:34 |
IndyGunFreak | you've been told that at least 3x | 04:34 |
nonewmsgs | i dont have demo, source or jdk...i am installing thme now | 04:34 |
IndyGunFreak | nonewmsgs: hmm, thats strange.. you must not have the source repository enabled | 04:35 |
wolf_ | Can anyone help me out with audio problems? No applications are detecting my microphone or giving me audio, such as skype, ventrilo, team speak, sound recorder | 04:35 |
nonewmsgs | IndyGunFreak, i just didnt select it when i installed java via synaptic :P | 04:35 |
IndyGunFreak | wolf_: good luck on that one, mic support is pretty shaky under Linux | 04:36 |
IndyGunFreak | nonewmsgs: oh ok. | 04:36 |
wolf_ | IndyGunFreak: always worked for me before on the same sound card :P | 04:36 |
IndyGunFreak | wolf_: under linux? | 04:36 |
wolf_ | IndyGunFreak: fedora 5 and 6 | 04:36 |
wolf_ | IndyGunFreak: 5 and 7* | 04:36 |
IndyGunFreak | you're pretty lucky.. i've gotten 1 mic to work w/ Linux.. but i've not tried very hard either | 04:36 |
Redian | Okies, I've got the official ubuntu fools question: How do I create a file that runs terminal commands when double clicked? | 04:37 |
wolf_ | IndyGunFreak: always worked wihtout any configuration for me... now it is giving me all kinds of problems. | 04:37 |
IndyGunFreak | Redian: right click desktop, create launcher | 04:37 |
Redian | What if I need to run the commands sudo? | 04:38 |
IndyGunFreak | in "command" put the command.. and make sure you check the "run in terminal box | 04:38 |
IndyGunFreak | Redian: then instead of sudo, put "gksudo" you'll be prompted for the password | 04:38 |
hillshum | How do I get more desktops? (a cube not a flat plane) | 04:38 |

Stirk | My question is quite simple, is it possible to set each user account to have a different localization in hardy? I want my user account to be set to American English, for example, and my mother's to Russian? | 04:40 |
pilgrim | He y Guys. My wireless hasn't worked since upgrading to Ubuntu 8.04. I have a broadcom card | 04:41 |
alan_m | Strik, i believe thats possible as long as you have both localization packages set up on your pc. | 04:41 |
alan_m | strik, i mean language packs | 04:42 |
Stirk | I do alan, but everytime I change it on any user account it changes the whole system. Any ideas? | 04:42 |
alan_m | Strik, hmmm.....i dunno. | 04:42 |
Guest19406 | yes, i now have a completely open source system | 04:42 |

IdleOne | billybob3, can you dvd player read mp3's? | 04:48 |
billybob3 | yes | 04:48 |
Stirk | Are the files readable on your pc? | 04:48 |
billybob3 | its actually a cd player that can read mp3s in a data dvd | 04:48 |
billybob3 | yes they are readable on my pc | 04:48 |
zaccour | is ubuntu completely free and open source by default? is there really a difference in open source and free? | 04:49 |
sudobash | billybob3 your dvd player sucks | 04:49 |
billybob3 | Im not playing it in my dvd player sorry, Its a cd player | 04:49 |
sudobash | get an xbox | 04:49 |
sudobash | and hack it | 04:49 |
billybob3 | a cd player in my car | 04:49 |
Starnestommy | billybob3: dvds don't work in cd players | 04:49 |
billybob3 | yes they do | 04:49 |
sudobash | and your cd player must be mp3 compatible | 04:49 |
Starnestommy | billybob3: not unless the cd player was made to read dvds | 04:49 |
billybob3 | oh... | 04:50 |
billybob3 | so maybe i gota burn it on a cd! | 04:50 |
billybob3 | lol | 04:50 |
Arenium | My system (Thinkpad T61, built in BT) freezes up hard immediately after pairing with my bluetooth phone. Interestingly, the caps lock light blinks. Not even the Thinklight responds to its function key. Ideas? [kernel 2.6.24-17-generic] | 04:50 |
sudobash | but an mp3 cd can hold 12 or 13 cd's | 04:50 |
billybob3 | oh man.... i forgot thats what i did last time im dumb | 04:50 |
billybob3 | thanks for the help | 04:50 |
FunkyLarge | How do you open firefox in safe mode? | 04:50 |
cabrioleur | zaccour, free as freeware? Can you specify? It's definitely open source. | 04:50 |
billybob3 | cdplayers dont read dvds right | 04:50 |
zaccour | yeah, thats what i mean freeware | 04:51 |
ThatsNotJack | the processes kapcid and kapcid_notify are eating up 100% cpu together, but using apci = off along with the nvidia drivers kills my internet connection.. any ideas? | 04:51 |
ahboy | hey guys i have a problem, i am trying to compile a program but its saying i have this error: /lib/modules/2.6.24-16-generic/buld is missing......MakeFile. inc:66 *** /lib/modules/2.6.24-/build missing, Please set the KERNELPATH. stop | 04:51 |
zaccour | is there a difference in freeware and open source | 04:51 |
cabrioleur | zaccour, license. | 04:51 |
Arenium | zaccour, Yup. Not all freeware is open source. It's about--yeah, the licenses | 04:51 |
nagash | ola | 04:51 |
Starnestommy | zaccour: freeware is free, but you can't copy it, modify it, look at the source code, or redistribute it in most cases | 04:51 |
ahboy | now i know that /lib/modules/2.6.24-16-generic exists but Build doesnt | 04:51 |
nagash | ola | 04:51 |
Starnestommy | zaccour: in other words, it's proprietary | 04:52 |
tech0007 | ahboy: sudo apt-get install build-essential | 04:52 |
zaccour | oh, i thought freeware could be modified. i see there is a difference, thanks | 04:52 |
crimsun | ahboy: you need the corresponding linux-headers-$(uname -r) package installed if you want the build symlink | 04:52 |
ahboy | tech i did build-essential already | 04:52 |
Starnestommy | zaccour: free software can be modified though, but the difference between free and freeware is confusing | 04:52 |
ahboy | crimsun ill try that | 04:52 |
crimsun | ahboy: e.g., you'd need linux-headers-2.6.24-16-generic in that example | 04:53 |
FunkyLarge | How do you open firefox in safe mode? | 04:53 |

ahboy | its madwifi for the eeepc | 04:53 |
hdevalence | hey, i have a bit of a problem. I tried using the US-intl keyboard layout in order to occasionally insert special characters, but it has a behaviour I dislike, which is that normally to get a special char you press right-alt + <key>, but the ['"] key acts in reverse; it acts normally when alt is pressed but otherwise when I want to type eg "it's" it will put in itś etc. Is there a way to change only this behaviour? | 04:53 |
Starnestommy | FunkyLarge: in a terminal, firefox -safe-mode | 04:53 |
cabrioleur | ThatsNotJack, can you use noapic nolapic instead of acpi=off and noacpi? Are you sure nvidia modules are messing up as well? | 04:53 |
ahboy | crimsun i have the folder /lib/modules/2.6.24-generic <----this is shortened | 04:53 |

ahboy | im compiling the madwifi driver for eeepc | 04:54 |

tech0007 | Ninjavidual: mount ur drive first | 04:54 |
ahboy | okay ill hook it up and check that | 04:55 |
ahboy | so apt-get install linux-headers-$(uname-r) | 04:55 |
Ninjavidual | tech0007: why, and is there a gui for this? | 04:55 |
tmapj | can anyone help me setup jack? | 04:55 |
Starnestommy | ahboy: there's a space between uname and -r | 04:55 |
tech0007 | Ninjavidual: it should've been detected during the i nstall. try nautilus | 04:55 |
ahboy | aww okay thanks guys brb in a bit | 04:56 |
Anscombe | Hi, I got the 'application/places/systems' bar at the bottom, which was at top default, and moved the old default bottom to top, how can i combine the top one into the bottom one, so it's one bar at the bottom, with all the info in it. | 04:56 |
Arenium | tmapj, I've used jack a bit, but I'm no expert. What's your problem? | 04:56 |
zaccour | i'm now confused on the difference between freeware and free | 04:56 |
tmapj | i just want to set it up so i have the lowest possible latency | 04:56 |
cabrioleur | Anscombe, just move it. Drag and drop. | 04:56 |
ThatsNotJack | cabrioleur: sorry, didn't see your message right away. None of the other flags have worked so far, but disabling the nvidia driver cures the problem | 04:57 |
tmapj | Arenium, i just want to set it up so i have the lowest possible latency | 04:57 |
Ninjavidual | tech0007: i can get into the drive from Places, and look in some folders, but cant do anything in their. in properties says that im not the owner... | 04:57 |
Starnestommy | zaccour: freeware can't be modified, but free/open-source software can | 04:57 |
Anscombe | cabrioleur: Then it goes into two bars, I want it all in one. | 04:57 |
Arenium | zaccour, "free" -> Richard Stallman (gnu.org, fsf.org). Freeware -> Any random (sometimes sketchy) site where you can download software without paying money | 04:57 |
tech0007 | Ninjavidual: u have to change permissions...see 'man chown' | 04:57 |
cabrioleur | Anscombe, right click on the panel, then remove this panel | 04:57 |
zaccour | still don't make sense. i hope i'm not getting annoying here | 04:58 |
Ninjavidual | tech0007: how do i see it? | 04:58 |

Arenium | tmapj, Google's pretty useful for that. It's the biggest question anybody ever has when using jack. A lot depends on your hardware and what you're doing with it, though. | 04:59 |
tech0007 | Ninjavidual: try this instead, open terminal..type 'gksu nautilus' | 04:59 |
tmapj | im not using any hardware at all | 04:59 |

tmapj | arenium: i just want to use the virtual midi keyboard | 05:00 |
Intrepid | Indy: I figured out the problem from earlier: It seems that using the DisplaySize directive in the Monitor section screws it up. | 05:00 |

tech0007 | Ninjavidual: supposed to open file-manager...r u on gnome/kde/xfce? | 05:01 |
tmapj | the documentation on ubuntu studio audio is very poor | 05:02 |
Ninjavidual | tech0007: im on gnome ubuntu 8.04 amd64 | 05:02 |
Arenium | tmapj, Sorry, I've never really played with MIDI. But you don't see any connections in Jack's connections manager when you fire up whatever midi programs you're using? | 05:02 |
tech0007 | Ninjavidual: on the terminal 'sudo chown -hR <yourusername> /<pathto2nddrive>' | 05:03 |
zaccour | according to the article freeware means the same thing as open source | 05:04 |
Starnestommy | zaccour: it does not | 05:04 |
sh00p | freeware isn't opensource | 05:04 |
Ninjavidual | tech0007: thanks, but how do i know what the path to the 2nd drive is? | 05:04 |
sh00p | you can't see the source code for freeware typically | 05:04 |
tech0007 | Ninjavidual: paste the output of 'mount' to paste.ubuntu.com | 05:05 |
Starnestommy | zaccour: freeware cannot be modified, you cannot look at how it was programmed, and you cannot copy or redistribute it in many cases | 05:05 |
Starnestommy | zaccour: open-source can let you do all of those things and more | 05:05 |
dr_Willis | zaccour, theres a lot of bad articals out there. :) | 05:05 |
Stirk | My question is quite simple, is it possible to set each user account to have a different localization in hardy? I want my user account to be set to American English, for example, and my mother's to Russian | 05:06 |
cabrioleur | I wonder if it's my part now to prove superiority of BSD license over GNU :-) | 05:06 |
cabrioleur | Stirk, yes | 05:07 |
meoblast001 | how do you instruct dpkg to ignore dependancy problems | 05:07 |
tech0007 | Ninjavidual: brb | 05:07 |
Stirk | How would I do it cabrioleur? | 05:07 |
Decepticon | is this a good backup command: tar cvpf /mnt/WD500/Backup/decepticon/$(date +"%Y-%m-%d-%H-%M-%S").tar /home/decepticon/ | 05:07 |
zaccour | i mean except open source isn't always cost free | 05:07 |
zaccour | is the only difference freeware is always cost free and open source sometimes is, sometimes isn't? | 05:07 |
threedee | what is BSD | 05:08 |
Stirk | If something is open source, it's free by definition | 05:08 |
RadiantFire | Stirk: an over-simplification | 05:08 |
sudobash | BSD is a UNIX like system | 05:08 |
sudobash | or OS | 05:08 |
Starnestommy | zaccour: it is usually free as in price, but there's nothing keeping you from charging | 05:08 |
Ninjavidual | tech0007: ok i pasted it under the name Ninjavidual | 05:08 |
cabrioleur | meoblast001, dpkg --force-depends | 05:08 |
Stirk | Perhaps | 05:08 |
sudobash | for instance... OpenBSD is the type of OS on my Router... | 05:08 |
tech0007 | Ninjavidual: whats the link? | 05:08 |
vanagon | anybody here know anything about the eee pc versions of Ubuntu?

Stirk | Anyway, can you answer my question cabrioleur? Or can anyone else? | 05:09 |
cabrioleur | Stirk, when you log in change your language. It will be memorized for the login that's about to log in :-) | 05:09 |

zaccour | oh i see, the only difference between freeware and open source is that open source can be modified.. am i right? | 05:12 |
Stirk | Wow. thanks cabrioleur ! | 05:12 |
Starnestommy | zaccour: that's one of the biggest ones | 05:12 |
hdevalence | zaccour: well with freeware the free is as in no cost, but in Free Software it's free as in freedom | 05:13 |
cabrioleur | hdevalence, limited freedom :-D | 05:14 |
hdevalence | zaccour: the freedom to do nearly everything you want | 05:14 |
zaccour | i think i got it, thanks | 05:14 |
hdevalence | cabrioleur: well you can't take away other people's freedom | 05:14 |
Ninjavidual | tech0007: i did it but nothing happened and the prompt cursor is on a new blank line underneath | 05:15 |
cabrioleur | hdevalence, no, but you can give them much more than GPL can offer. Hence popularity of BSD in many solutions. | 05:15 |
tech0007 | Ninjavidual: check if you can read/write to it | 05:15 |
whileimhere | hi can anyone tell me why video in vlc will not play fullscreen but inbstead it just has a big blac box around it? | 05:16 |
hdevalence | cabrioleur: well the point of the gpl is to guarantee the four fundamental freedoms to everyone | 05:16 |
hdevalence | cabrioleur: and it prevents you from doing things which would go against freedom for all, like making a proprietary derivative | 05:16 |
Ninjavidual | tech007: when i tried to make a new folder in docs and settings in the drive a popup said "Error removing file: Operation not supported" | 05:16 |

Ninjavidual | tech0007: i just found i can do whatever streight in the drive, but nothing is visible in the docs and setting folder, and i cant do anything in there | 05:18 |

yoanis | this friend of mine is using evolution with a configured POP3 account | 05:32 |
yoanis | and whenever he checks for new emails | 05:32 |
dr_Willis | swedekid, some are there by default. but the full samba suite is not installed by default. | 05:33 |
yoanis | the client saids there are no new messages | 05:33 |
yoanis | even if there are | 05:33 |
swedekid | dr_Willis: do i need to install that? | 05:33 |
cabrioleur | yoanis, what's the service provider? | 05:33 |
yoanis | i'm running into the same issue with kmail | 05:33 |
dr_Willis | swedekid, no idea.. if you want to be a samba server. you will.. if you want to do some simple/quick file transfers. i tend to use ssh and winscp. | 05:34 |
yoanis | cabrioleur:well, he's using gnome and i'm using kde | 05:34 |
nickrud | yoanis try again with thunderbird; if they all won't get the mail it's at the server end I'd say | 05:34 |
cabrioleur | yoanis, but the mail service (google.mail.com, yahoo.com etc?) | 05:34 |
swedekid | dr_Willis: are there any tutorials for setting up ssh and winscp that are good? | 05:34 |
yoanis | cabrioleur: well, it's the mail server from our institution | 05:34 |
Anscombe | how can i add icons computer / c / recycle bin to desktop icons, I have no icons for some reason | 05:35 |
yoanis | the funny thing is that i ran tshark | 05:35 |
dr_Willis | swedekid, install ssh on linux, install winscp on windows.. run winscp.. enter info, connect.. see home dir.. do whatever you want to do.. | 05:35 |
yoanis | and i didn't see any activity for the protocol (POP3) | 05:35 |
Anscombe | Oh done | 05:35 |
swedekid | ok so sudo apt-get install ssh ? thats the command right? | 05:35 |
cabrioleur | yoanis, I did have the same problem when a wrong encryption was picked. | 05:35 |

jameslr | I'm having problems getting my ATI X850 pro running correctly. I tried both methods from http://wiki.cchtml.com/index.php/Ubuntu_Hardy_Installation_Guide but whenever I load X with the driver setup in xorg.conf all I get is a white screen. I'm logged in because the cursor changes state. Anyone have any idea why this is happening? | 05:57 |
FAJALOU | any thoughts on how to make this error disappear. | 05:57 |
nonewmsgs | wolf_ i have the same soundcard but have not had your current problem. perhaps someone else can step up for you. | 05:57 |
owen1 | do i need to do anything before creating new partition? (via live cd) | 05:58 |
FAJALOU | normally it is good to backup your data, owen1 | 05:58 |
FAJALOU | just in case. | 05:58 |
IndyGunFreak | yup | 05:59 |
owen1 | FAJALOU: ok | 05:59 |
deuryte | jameslr: im sure someone in here will help, but i sitched from ati to nvidia, seems to be best with linux.. | 05:59 |
tech0007 | FAJALOU: this happens if you used sudo, instead of gksu or gksudo | 05:59 |
owen1 | IndyGunFreak: you are here as well.. | 05:59 |
IndyGunFreak | owen1: not much longer... why do you mention that | 05:59 |

jameslr | deuryte: thanks for the reply. I was using an Nvidia Quadro4 380, but removed it to use my X850 pro because it's faster...technically it's not anymore :( | 06:00 |
IndyGunFreak | owen1: i go to #debian on occasion(because i use it), but i find the people there.. well, less than desirable to be around... | 06:00 |

jayde_drag0n | nickrud: everything happened in order each time after a reboot | 06:30 |
LovelyJane|loli | and please? xD | 06:30 |
nickrud | hm. fat32 takes good sizes, I remember when ... | 06:30 |
Ansuiz | Lovely, what is confusing you? | 06:30 |
nickrud | jayde_drag0n why permissions would change ... I have no clue | 06:30 |
LovelyJane|loli | i have this HDD that has winxp installed on it | 06:30 |

LovelyJane|loli | thanks | 06:31 |
grendal_prime | cant get mine working kinda werid i know they did work at one point | 06:31 |
jayde_drag0n | nickrud: is there a way without formatting and reinstalling that i can roll the system back to feisty or whatever it was before hardy?.. lol and something that i can follow? | 06:32 |
mehehool | bazhang when i pull my wireless card that stays active | 06:32 |
nickrud | jayde_drag0n no, no way to change back to gutsy except for total geeks with too much time on their hands. | 06:32 |
pub | how would i go about viewing the size of my swap drive ? | 06:32 |
pub | swapon -l? | 06:33 |
bazhang_ | mehehool, the wireless is atheros 24xx | 06:33 |
grendal_prime | nickrud: if its anything like a debian dist upgrade the answer would be no | 06:33 |
mehehool | bazhang thats my internall | 06:33 |
legend2440 | pub: in terminal free | 06:33 |
mehehool | my external card is belkin | 06:33 |
bazhang_ | mehehool, the internal should work fine | 06:33 |
jayde_drag0n | nickrud: lol okay.. but still sucky because i can't continually have these problems and have no idea how to fix them.. its really frustrating.. it means i have to format AGAIN.. and then figure out how to prevent a hardy upgrade | 06:33 |
nickrud | grendal_prime well, there are ways, changing dist in /etc/apt/preferences and then fixing conflicts by hand, but like I said ;) | 06:34 |
Syeem | pub: free -om | 06:34 |
Yuki`Nagato | I have a bit of a strange problem here... Ubuntu freezes up at times. When it does, it's as if my mouse is one click behind. I right click on, say, the desktop, then pull my cursor into a window and right click, and the option menu for right clicking the desktop comes up... Can anyone diagnose this problem? It's happening right now, but it seems to be a little worse than usual, because right now, I can't do anything other than type into this window and p | 06:34 |

mehehool | bazhang but i have no wireless capabilitys on ubuntu so far my connection options are wired and modem | 06:34 |
MrPocknix | is there an easy way to send a message from one Ubuntu box to another on a LAN? | 06:35 |
bazhang_ | mehehool, well with some troubleshooting that card (internal) will work | 06:35 |
Ansuiz | MrPocknix shh address | 06:35 |
dr_Willis | MrPocknix, thers the old 'talk' and 'ytalk' stuff. samba has some sort of msging tool also. | 06:35 |
bazhang_ | Yuki`Nagato, using compiz? how much ram | 06:35 |
MrPocknix | hmm | 06:35 |
Yuki`Nagato | Is Compiz that multiple/3D desktop thing? If so, no. And 1GB of RAM. | 06:36 |
MrPocknix | i've got AIM and IRc on this box, and running the one next to it for everythign else | 06:36 |
mehehool | bazhang ok bet external card is n and it was the one i wanted to use and i think if i can get the wireless option to work all together i can get the n to work too | 06:36 |
Ansuiz | oh I was thinking like command line access from another box lol | 06:36 |
MrPocknix | and i'm looking for an easy way to ge tlinks and what not over to the other box | 06:36 |
Yuki`Nagato | If it helps, I'm using a Compaq Presario v5305WM. Stock, with 512 Meg of ram added. | 06:36 |
Yuki`Nagato | And thank you for replying :) | 06:36 |
dr_Willis | MrPocknix, copuing files? use ssh/scp is a easy way | 06:36 |
mehehool | bazhang so how do i get my wireless option available? | 06:36 |
bazhang_ | Yuki`Nagato, the ram may be an issue; are they the same speed sticks? | 06:37 |
nickrud | dr_Willis never tried those myself, do they echo to xterms? | 06:37 |
jayde_drag0n | nickrud: back | 06:37 |
FAJALOU | i went into recovery mode and chmodded it to 644, but it still doesn't work | 06:37 |
bazhang_ | mehehool, you said this was livecd? then try ifconfig and see if there is ath0 | 06:37 |
dr_Willis | nickrud, i havent used them in ages either. :) | 06:37 |
nickrud | jayde_drag0n what command did you run exactly? | 06:37 |
Yuki`Nagato | I would have to check. I can do that when I relog/reboot. Is it a rare problem, though? | 06:38 |
jayde_drag0n | nickrud: for what exactly? | 06:38 |
Yuki`Nagato | I find the lagging mouse clicks a tad odd... | 06:38 |
kazim | Strange problem with keyboard. Started just this morning. As soon as GDM starts, keyboard response goes dead slow. I've to press each key for about 3-4 seconds to get it there. If I move to non-graphical tty (say tty2), the keyboard works perfect. | 06:38 |
nickrud | jayde_drag0n the chmod you're talking about | 06:38 |
FAJALOU | nickrud i went into recovery mode and chmodded it to 644, but it still showing up. | 06:38 |
bazhang_ | Yuki`Nagato, not sure as there may be other conflicts-->has it always been this or only of late (last couple of days) | 06:38 |
nickrud | FAJALOU exactly what command? | 06:38 |
bad_cables | how can i burn a CD.iso wind ubuntu live session on a laptop with only one CD rom? is there a -toram option?? | 06:38 |
mehehool | bazhang This is a full install | 06:39 |
FAJALOU | i went into recovery mode, and went in as root from the options | 06:39 |
Yuki`Nagato | Been like this for a while now. I installed Ubuntu last January I believe. | 06:39 |
FAJALOU | then i typed in 'chmod 644 /home/louie/.dmrc | 06:39 |
nickrud | FAJALOU chmod ???? | 06:39 |
bazhang_ | mehehool, okay then what does ifconfig show-->ath0 or not | 06:39 |
jayde_drag0n | nickrud: well when the system told me i didn't own home/jayde anymore .. i did sudo chmod -hR jayde jayde and the same for media/GIR | 06:39 |
FAJALOU | chmod, how to modify the permissions of a file. | 06:39 |
manchicken | Anybody had any luck trying Ubuntu for PPC out on PS3? | 06:39 |
nickrud | FAJALOU ah, ok. | 06:39 |
dr_Willis | FAJALOU, you realuize you can just delete the .dmrc file. and it will get remade the next time you login>? | 06:39 |
bazhang_ | Yuki`Nagato, that is odd; is this ubuntu only or dual boot | 06:40 |
mehehool | bazhang mehehool@cross-laptop:~$ iwconfig | 06:40 |
mehehool | lo no wireless extensions. | 06:40 |
mehehool | irda0 no wireless extensions. | 06:40 |
mehehool | eth0 no wireless extensions. | 06:40 |
Yuki`Nagato | Ubuntu only. | 06:40 |

FAJALOU | thx for that. | 06:40 |
Ansuiz | manchicken, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PlayStation_3 | 06:40 |
bazhang_ | Yuki`Nagato, this is gutsy then? | 06:40 |
Yuki`Nagato | Yes sir. | 06:40 |
dr_Willis | FAJALOU, its just a 1 line file that contains the name of the last used/default session. | 06:40 |
bad_cables | anyone know how to burn a CD in a live sessions? | 06:40 |
dr_Willis | FAJALOU, well..2 lines. :) | 06:41 |
bazhang_ | manchicken, they have a channel here on freenode | 06:41 |
nickrud | bad_cables right click the iso, and select write to disk | 06:41 |
manchicken | Ansuiz: Yeah, I saw that. I'm just wondering if anybody had looked into it. | 06:41 |
Yuki`Nagato | Mm.. Noticed something here. | 06:41 |
bad_cables | nickrud: the drive is occupied by the ubuntu disk | 06:41 |
FAJALOU | huh ok, | 06:41 |
Yuki`Nagato | I have the gnome-system-monitor applet on my top toolbar here, and the CPU activity is going up about half way and then going back down rapidly. | 06:41 |
nickrud | bad_cables ah, what a dummy I am. No, you'd need another cdrom | 06:41 |
bazhang_ | bad_cables, burn the iso from whatever system you are using | 06:41 |
FAJALOU | it's just weird that it does that... | 06:42 |
Yuki`Nagato | Spiking up, dropping down, spiking up, going down... | 06:42 |

nickrud | bad_cables not sure. A sec | 06:42 |
bazhang_ | bad_cables, the livecd is running over what system | 06:42 |
bad_cables | there is no disk | 06:43 |
bad_cables | its broken | 06:43 |
whik | hehe i just stole a stop sign | 06:43 |
bazhang_ | bad_cables, you have no hard drive | 06:43 |
jayde_drag0n | nickrud: and now when i try to chmod media/GIR/ubuntu/Downloads its giving me an error saying that my command is wrong.. when i know i'm typing it right "jayde@Master:/media/GIR/ubuntu$ sudo chmod -hR jayde Downloads hmod: invalid option -- h Try `chmod --help' for more information. | 06:43 |
bad_cables | nope | 06:43 |

Yuki`Nagato | Crap. Can't get out of this window :( Even spawning a terminal with the key combo I entered doesn't work.. | 06:43 |
whik | kk sorry | 06:43 |
Yuki`Nagato | Is there a key combo for minimizing the current window? | 06:43 |
Yuki`Nagato | Might work.. | 06:43 |
nickrud | jayde_drag0n you can't use chmod on a vfat drive, how you mount it determines the permissions. You have them correctly set | 06:43 |
pub | when i do `-df -hT` i get /dev/sda1 ext3 457G 9.1G 425G 3% / any reason why that would be 22gb? | 06:43 |
bazhang_ | bad_cables, what is the point of burning a cd if you have no hdd to install to | 06:43 |
bad_cables | bazhang: wouldnt make a diff... i have plenty of storage, but none of them are more than 1gig each | 06:43 |
bad_cables | because i can burn puppy linux and install that | 06:44 |
bad_cables | to the 1 gig usb pen | 06:44 |
bazhang_ | bad_cables, install to where | 06:44 |
dangergrrl | are there standard packages anywhere for running 32 bit apps under x86_64, like for the shlibs? | 06:44 |

jayde_drag0n | nickrud: cuz going under preferences only gives me an error saying that its read only.. and i'm like.. i know stupid .. thats why i'm trying to change it! | 06:45 |

afallenhope | they can connect to it.. but aMSN was having an issue.. I disabled ufw and it worked | 06:46 |

tanath | i've killed it, but it still complains it's already running | 06:49 |

herrr | haii | 06:51 |
mehehool | bazhang is it as easy to navigate or am i gonna lose a bunch of things like video card support and eathernet | 06:51 |
FAJALOU | vrkhans: yes i use wcid, what's your q? | 06:52 |
bazhang_ | Vegombrei, what about alt f2 | 06:52 |
vrkhans | FAJALOU: i just install it but line in the gnome network manager there is an con or bars on your tool bar is there any indicator for wcid | 06:52 |
thingfish | Krai: Applications>Accessories>Terminal. Then type sudo <command> | 06:52 |
FAJALOU | bazhang, alt f2 will bring you to an 'open' panel, from there type in gnome-panel | 06:52 |
FAJALOU | see if it works | 06:52 |
Vegombrei | bazhang_: doesnt work | 06:53 |
jayde_drag0n | Krai: if you are running a command that needs to be done with root permissionss just put sudo in front of it... for example instead of apt-get install.... it would be sudo apt-get install... but if you are trying to have terminal as root.. open terminal and type sudo su | 06:53 |

tanath | FAJALOU, i think you're talking to me, but no that doesn't work as the alt+f2 thing is part of gnome-panel ;) | 06:53 |
bazhang_ | Quintin, this is ubuntu support only | 06:53 |

Vegombrei | i even uninstalled it and reinstalled it and yet its stuck in full screen .. dont get me wrong .. it plays all my media no problemo .. its just that its always in fullscreen | 06:54 |
FAJALOU | try going into tty and trying to kill gnome-panel, and then starting it back up | 06:54 |
FAJALOU | or rebooting? | 06:54 |
tanath | FAJALOU, already have. restarting is last resort... | 06:54 |
Rat409 | try escape or ctrl+alt+m | 06:55 |
vrkhans | FAJALOU: is there any indicator or bars , once it is connected | 06:55 |
tanath | FAJALOU, if gnome is as borked as it seems, i may have trouble logging back in | 06:55 |
FAJALOU | vrkhans, yes it shows up in my taskbar with bars showing connection | 06:55 |
vrkhans | FAJALOU: but why mine is not showing anything | 06:56 |
InevGlitch | Hi. I'm considering making the switch to ubuntu, something I attempted back in the 6 version, but it didn't work out. I'm hoping things are better now. I have a question if there is someone available who can help me out. | 06:56 |
FAJALOU | vrkhans, if you are on the internet though, then wicd is working correctly... | 06:56 |
elitemind | okay guys a problem, How do i dpkg -i some.deb; aptitude -something to cover the dependencies? | 06:56 |
MFietje | Vegombrei: I checked gconf-editor but there is no full screen option there... strange problem you have | 06:56 |
bazhang_ | InevGlitch, best to try the livecd first | 06:56 |
Syeem | InevGlitch: go for Gutsy | 06:56 |
vrkhans | it is working but not indicator on the panel | 06:56 |
Rat409 | elitemind: apt-get -f install if it errors | 06:56 |
FAJALOU | hmmm, vrkhans, is there a particular reason why you want it up,, because if it is working, then there is no need to change it. | 06:57 |
Vegombrei | MFietje: yeah dude its quite bizarre eh ? i've been cracking my head on this since almost a week now brother | 06:57 |
tanath | can anyone help me get gnome panel running? | 06:57 |
tanath | it seems to think it's already running, though it's not | 06:57 |
jmhealey_ | yes, i'm sure someone can | 06:57 |
vrkhans | just thinking why not any indicator | 06:57 |
InevGlitch | You think it'll work better for me with a previous version? | 06:57 |
FAJALOU | tanath, have you tried killing it in tty, and then restarting it from tty also? | 06:57 |
tanath | FAJALOU, as i said, yes | 06:58 |
Syeem | InevGlitch: gutsy is the most stable release | 06:58 |
Syeem | InevGlitch: give the livecd a try 1st | 06:58 |
InevGlitch | Which is Gutsy, 7 ? | 06:58 |
bazhang_ | InevGlitch, you need to try the livecd; you could chat about it in #ubuntu-offtopic as this is a support channel | 06:58 |
Syeem | InevGlitch: 7.10 | 06:58 |
tanath | FAJALOU, well, from terminal anyway | 06:58 |
tanath | FAJALOU, did a kill9 with killall | 06:58 |
elitemind | RAT409 its still error out | 06:58 |
elitemind | needs dependencies | 06:58 |
FAJALOU | tanath, you may be able to just log back in , if you are confident in gnome,,,, | 06:58 |

tanath | FAJALOU, no panel = no logout button :P | 06:59 |
InevGlitch | Well, my question should be fairly simple, I'm just wondering how difficult it is to set up multiple monitors, in whatever version. | 06:59 |
elitemind | so dpkg -i some.deb;aptitude -somecommand? | 06:59 |
FAJALOU | try ctrl alt backspace | 06:59 |
Rat409 | elitemind: if depends are doable should pull them,if unresolveable will offer to remove the .deb | 06:59 |
Vegombrei | i have another question .. is there any software that could help me rip mp3's to its original state ? | 06:59 |
Syeem | Tanaoa: try alt+ctrl+backspace to restart gdm | 06:59 |
tanath | legend2440, i don't want to reset settings... i like my settings | 06:59 |
bazhang_ | InevGlitch, again, need to have an installation to troubleshoot; getting the livecd will be a good indicator of that | 06:59 |
elitemind | okay ill try | 06:59 |
tanath | legend2440, i need to figure out why it thinks it's already running | 06:59 |

FAJALOU | xkill gnome-panel didn't work? | 07:04 |
tanath | FAJALOU, doesn't xkill need a window to target? | 07:04 |
Rat409 | tanath: try using sudo killall gnome-panel | 07:04 |

Flynsarm1 | Hi. i'm trying to install ubuntu on my PC but the partition manager keeps either freezing or crashing. Any ideas? | 07:30 |
dr_Willis | Flynsarm1, will ubuntu be the only os on the pc? | 07:31 |
mycroftiv | flynsarm1: id recommend trying the alternate-install cd instead of the live cd | 07:31 |
kerberos | amenado --> ok thanks | 07:31 |
Flynsarm1 | dr_Willis: Windows is currently installed on one partition. its a 320gig drive. there are also 2 1TB drives | 07:31 |
kramfs | /msg ubottu etiquette | 07:32 |
Flynsarm1 | mycroftiv: Alternate is the command line version isn't it? i'm too much of a newbie to handle that | 07:32 |
dr_Willis | Flynsarm1, you could partition the hd from outside of ubuntu, with a gparted live cd, or similer. Or just leave part of a HD resized with an 'unallocated' space. and try tellint ubuntu to autmatically use the unallocated space | 07:32 |
unavailable | flynsarm1 go back into windows and do a defrag, it wont work unless you do a defrag | 07:33 |
mycroftiv | flynsarm1: its not actually 'command line' - it uses a series of menus. it doesnt have a live desktop, but the menus are fairly self-explanatory, its the same process really, just with no desktop running in the background | 07:33 |
unavailable | flynsarm1 go back into windows and do a defrag, it wont work unless you do a defrag | 07:33 |
unavailable | flynsarm1 go back into windows and do a defrag, it wont work unless you do a defrag | 07:33 |
Flannel | Flynsarm1: Its not a command line version, its text based menus. The questions it asks are identical to the LiveCD one, and the only place you'll notice a difference (except having to use the keyboard instead of a mouse) is partitioning, and even that's not too different | 07:33 |
dr_Willis | Flynsarm1, yea like the others say. You must have windows defragged/scandisked. befor trying to let ubuntu resize it. | 07:33 |
Vegombrei | bazhang_: how do i completely uninstall totem ?? like a complete reinstallation with default settings ? | 07:33 |
Flynsarm1 | unavailable: WIndows is on one partition and there aare 220gigs of unallocated space in a seperate partition. Defragging shouldn't be a problem. Windows was also just instaleld a few mins ago so it's fresh | 07:34 |
dr_Willis | Vegombrei, try making a new user and see if totem works for them properly. if so . YOu just need to delete the totem settings from the OTHER users home/settings. | 07:34 |
ronin1234 | hmm changed pci port on my sata card so now it gets listed unde lspci but still no drives being detected off it | 07:34 |
dr_Willis | Vegombrei, remove/reinstalling to fix things is a 'windows' sort of thing. :) rarely works under linux. Unless you messed up the system configs. | 07:35 |
unavailable | flynsarm2 then dont repartition it, use the seperate partition... just format the dang thing and mount it there | 07:35 |
Vegombrei | dr_Willis: now that sounds like a good idea .. how do i just delete the totem settings in this user ? | 07:35 |
Vegombrei | dr_Willis: yeah im a former windows fella .. and believe me thats the only way to fix crap in windows | 07:36 |
mycroftiv | vegombrei: for future reference the command to remove a package and its configuration files is sudo aptitude purge PackageName | 07:36 |
mehehool | bazhang_ Create directory to store the drivers and navigate to it. how do i do this | 07:36 |
mycroftiv | vegombrei: but i agree thats not usually the best 'fixing' strategy in most cases, but its still good to know :) | 07:37 |
ronin1234 | I get a PCI error while updating region.... whats that mean? | 07:37 |
mohkohn | Join #khmeros | 07:37 |
mohkohn | oops | 07:37 |
dr_Willis | Vegombrei, no idea where totem keeps its settings. I hate totem. :) i perfer gmplayer | 07:38 |
mycroftiv | vegombrei: also note that aptitude's dependency handling can cause really bad things to happen from uninstalling stuff, because it likes to also uninstall the things that 'depend' on the things you are uninstalling...and... | 07:38 |
dr_Willis | Vegombrei, explore the .gnome and .gconf dirs I guess. :) | 07:38 |

Rat409 | babolat: yes | 07:58 |
mycroftiv | airstrikeivanov: there are two directions to head in debugging: the kernel module configuration/codec options, and the userland pulseaudio settings. | 07:59 |
mehehool | how do i find the dir for the file | 07:59 |
airstrikeivanov | mycroftiv: i have no idea what youre talking about, | 07:59 |

Rat409 | mehehool: try apt-cache search madwifi. see whats there and what you need | 08:00 |
mehehool | ok apparently i must use a subversion to do this any idea how | 08:00 |
mycroftiv | airstrikeivanov: im sorry, sound debugging can get kind of technical, ive actually been doing a lot of it lately, the kernel module loaded needs to match your card and be configured with the right codec, and also the pulseaudio sound daemon has to feed stuff into the correct alsa pipeline | 08:00 |
airstrikeivanov | mycroftiv: i'm a simple webhoster, you'll have to walk me through it. | 08:01 |

anto | Gah the sound system in hardy sucks >.< | 08:01 |
Rat409 | !subversion | mehehool | 08:01 |
ubottu | mehehool: subversion is an open source application used for revision control. It is sometimes abbreviated to svn in reference to the name of its command line interface. Look here for a Subversion How To on Ubuntu: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Subversion | 08:01 |
anto | i cant have multiple applications accessing the sound libs | 08:01 |
mycroftiv | airstrikeivanov: id say try some shortcuts first: have you searched the ubuntu web forums for the name of your soundcard, or google searched it + linux? | 08:01 |
airstrikeivanov | Not really, no. I've got no idea what the exact models are. | 08:02 |
chazco | Hi... does anyone know if https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LiveCDCustomization still applies to Hardy? | 08:02 |
Rat409 | airstrikeivanov: try lspci | grep Audio | 08:02 |

mycroftiv | airstrikeivanov: thats a very common audio controller, you should be able to find a lot of information on it, it used to be a lot of people needed to set it to 'triple stack' in their module configuration, but that was a few versions ago | 08:08 |

airstrikeivanov | Ah-hah. So how do I get past it? | 08:18 |
Rat409 | llama_ check your $PATH. /etc/environment is the file | 08:18 |
airstrikeivanov | After this I need to figure out HLStatsX, but that's not an Ubuntu issue. | 08:19 |

airstrikeivanov | How do I open the mixer? | 08:21 |
jmhealey_ | RedLXXXIV: do what I did, throw yours away, break into the apartment next to you and steal their, which might work in linux. | 08:21 |
legend2440 | ghindo: in order to fix that you have to compare /etc/hosts and /etc/hostname files and make hosts match hostname | 08:21 |

Flannel | sabgenton: nope. Just a file in your windows partition | 08:21 |
Rat409 | it shows where which looks,try apt-cache show ardour or in sybaptic>installed fikes tab | 08:21 |
dr_Willis | sabgenton, it installs to a single large file I recall. | 08:21 |

jmhealey_ | RedLXXXIV: never struggle if you don't have to | 08:22 |

Flannel | sabgenton: It does read ntfs, yes. | 08:24 |
sabgenton | Flannel: does it install grub in the mbr? | 08:24 |
mjbrooks | airstrikeivanov, so right click on the speaker icon on the upper left and choose preferences or options or mixer or whater | 08:24 |
jmhealey_ | RedLXXXIV: nope, i don't but i think whatever method that worked would take longer than a clean install. | 08:24 |

jmhealey_ | erland, to you or to the future of your employment? | 08:41 |

erland | jmhealey_ how? I don't have a knoppix cd | 08:42 |
jmhealey_ | erland: in that scenario, i wouldn't proceed, although my gut says it will be ok | 08:43 |
mjbrooks | erland, self employed photog with 3 years and no backup??!!!! | 08:43 |
falk_ | mjbrooks: I dont want a live system I want an installad system. | 08:43 |
jmhealey_ | erland you can download a knnoppix cd | 08:43 |
falk_ | :-) | 08:43 |
erland | jmhealey_ I'm a newbie to most of this - why do I want knoppix? | 08:43 |
Slart | falk_: I have to disagree... lvm might be a "must have" for enthusiasts.. but as erland said.. the grandmas out there do not need it.. and I'm guessing you wont have any problems using a text based installer | 08:43 |
erland | mjbrooks sadly, yes | 08:44 |
jmhealey_ | cuz it has built in gui tools to mount the drive and set up a fileserver so you can move the data to another box | 08:44 |
falk_ | ubottu: how to install an lvm and everythink by hand wasnt the question. Of course I can set it all up by hand but normaly that must do an installer for me. | 08:44 |
ubottu | falk_: Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 08:44 |
jmhealey_ | and it's a boot CD, so 'installing' it doesnt make things worse | 08:44 |

Slart | falk_: you're kind of missing the point here.. the regular install cd/live is made for ease of use.. I would bet most ubuntu users just use a regular hard drive with one partition, perhaps an extra partition for /home if they asked here before installing.. the live cd isn't designed to meet your demands.. the alternate install cd on the other hand.. will do all these things | 08:47 |
erland | Rat409: is that because it's command line stuff? | 08:47 |
Rat409 | yes mostly | 08:47 |
Anscombe | [08:43] <@{Matteo}> php isn't working on the debian server I just installed | 08:47 |
Slart | falk_: you can call it "advanced install cd" if you don't want to label yourself as alternate =) | 08:48 |

falk_ | Slart: ok, I think its a bug but ok. So call it a feature. | 08:49 |
Rat409 | erland: yes,use knoppix then open root-term and run fsck.ext3 /dev/whatever is appropriate | 08:49 |

andrewgower | http://tinyurl.com/cx7h8 | 10:28 |
dr_Willis | icewaterman, yep. a lot of times the gnome desktop does not have some of the advanced fetures like that. | 10:28 |
icewaterman | andrewgower: problems with wine are best posted in #winehq | 10:28 |
icewaterman | dr_Willis: hmm, thats bad | 10:30 |
dr_Willis | icewaterman, thats just the way it is. There may be a way to do it. I never noticed. | 10:30 |
Bert_2 | Hi, when I call "bzip2 -z9kv test.iso" it first asks "test.iso: " and I have to press enter before it starts, what does it want me to type there ? | 10:30 |
icewaterman | because i have come gnome to like more from the visual point of view, but it is much more chaotic in the manner i have to put applications to other virtual desktops manually | 10:31 |
dr_Willis | gee andrewgower did you mean to post a link to a very nasty looking XXX site? (which is real slow to load even!) | 10:31 |
andrewgower | wine couldn't help me | 10:32 |
andrewgower | so it must be a ubuntu problem | 10:32 |
andrewgower | http://tinyurl.com/cx7h8 | 10:32 |

dr_Willis | brainer, yep. same issue here. so i disable compiz | 10:36 |
DIFH-iceroot | afallenhope: remove = remove the software, purge = removing settings also (~/.programname and so on) | 10:36 |
brainer | there's no solve on this problem ? :-s | 10:36 |
afallenhope | oh okay thanks DIFH-iceroot | 10:36 |
dr_Willis | removeing an app with Purge will NOT (should not) remove the settigns in the users home dirs. | 10:36 |

brainer | i've tryed different players, having problems to play movies on all | 10:37 |
DIFH-iceroot | dr_Willis: i though purge was killing the settings and remove not | 10:37 |
bringatowel | brainer, same problem or different? | 10:37 |
dr_Willis | DIFH-iceroot, correct.. but it does not touch the stuff in the users home dir. | 10:37 |
dr_Willis | DIFH-iceroot, it will remove system settings. | 10:38 |
=== Kamaze_server_re is now known as kamaze | ||
DIFH-iceroot | dr_Willis: and what was killing the ~/.settings ? | 10:38 |
dr_Willis | DIFH-iceroot, nothing shold be touching those. | 10:38 |
brainer | btw when i set output to X11 ( XImage / Shm ) it plays well, but in full screen the movie is his original size | 10:38 |
dr_Willis | DIFH-iceroot, if for example the root user removed/purged vim, and reinstalled it.. the users may get upset if all their customized .vinmrc files got removed without warning. | 10:39 |
brainer | don't maximize to the screen width | 10:39 |
DIFH-iceroot | dr_Willis: ah ok | 10:39 |
rausb0 | brainer: try setting output to XV | 10:40 |
DIFH-iceroot | dr_Willis: i was thinking at firefox atm so the ~/.firefox settings where killed | 10:40 |
icewaterman | any admin here? | 10:40 |
dr_Willis | brainer, ive noticed that with gmplayer different -vo options . will do that, or not.. | 10:40 |
dr_Willis | DIFH-iceroot, ive never seen them changed. | 10:40 |

ronin1234 | dang nabit raid is not working becuase for some reason when I reboot /dev/md0 does not have a superblock | 10:47 |
ronin1234 | I then rebuild the array and it workds | 10:47 |
ronin1234 | so mdadm isn't runing at boot | 10:47 |
=== icha is now known as mimie | ||
icewaterman | brainer: the reason is simple. disable 3d effects in ubuntu and compare it again (you can as well try to enable 3d-effects with kubuntu) | 10:47 |
ronin1234 | actually it doesn't seem to assemble from the conf file at all | 10:48 |
Flynsarmy | how can i find out waht programs are sending outbound data on the network? my pc is reporting its uploading at 350ish bytes/sec constantly but i have no idea what's doing it | 10:48 |
icewaterman | 350 bytes/s is pretty normal | 10:48 |
Julouste | Flynsarmy: tcpdump , wireshark | 10:48 |
icewaterman | Flynsarmy: it is <1kb/s and probably simply the ack packets for inbound connections | 10:49 |
ronin1234 | sigh... not enjoying the hardy experience so far | 10:49 |
Flynsarmy | icewaterman: Nothing is comin gin though | 10:49 |
njero | AHA!!!! I finally found the difference with the adduser thing I keep asking about and no one is answering. In Ubuntu --system users have /bin/null as their shell by default not /bin/bash. So you can't use a shell and thus can't switch to that user (even though you can authenticate) | 10:50 |
jzitt | Hi, all. I'm trying to get Hardy running on my Asus Eee 701 after installing it from a USB drive. I need to get WiFi working, but the scripts to do so start out with an apt-get to get build-essentials and other stuff. How do I do this if I don;t have the networking working yet? | 10:50 |
pbrunier | Had an update yesterday on Hardy. Now my nvidia drivers are broken. Any idea how to fix this? | 10:50 |
icewaterman | Flynsarmy: hm, that is suspicious indeed. try tcpdump on that interface. it'll tell you what packets are going out | 10:50 |
Bogaurd | is there a way to have a command executed after dhclient has run? | 10:50 |
andycas | I upgraded my kernel from 2.6.24 to 2.6.25.6, after creating initrd image to /boot and changing grub menu.lst to match the new kernel, i get "vfs unable to mount root fs via nfs trying floppy ubuntu" | 10:51 |

bilbo_pingouin | hello all! | 10:51 |
puccio | just to say that now I'm force to be on windows to write here.. | 10:51 |
icewaterman | Flynsarmy: sudo apt-get install tcpdump | 10:51 |
ronin1234 | hmm maybe if i make a dir in media it will work | 10:51 |
icewaterman | then sudo tcpdump and it will tell you what packets go from where to where | 10:52 |
kotoponus | ompaul: thanks. bye. | 10:52 |
russs | i am totally new to linux and ubuntu, i installed a package called recordMyDesktop but i can't find where it is : i have ubuntu 8.04 | 10:52 |
russs | in windows you would find in "programs" in the start menu, where can i find it in ubuntu ? | 10:53 |
icewaterman | russs: dpkg -L recordmydesktop | 10:53 |
jzitt | Is there a way that perhaps I could get all that to download to my Windoze box so I could put it on a USB stick to be able to use it from the scripts on my ubuntu box? | 10:53 |
icewaterman | it will show you a list of files that came with the package | 10:54 |
russs | thx ice i'll try it right now | 10:54 |
puccio | no clue for the iwl3945 issue ? | 10:54 |
icewaterman | russs: the search applet is also available for the taskbar. you need to add it and klick it | 10:54 |
bilbo_pingouin | I just upgraded to Ubuntu 8.04 (yes, not really early), so far, most of the things seems to be ok, but SSL/TLS encrypton is not compatible with Pidgin anymore (no MSN, google talk). I tried googling it, but it seems that no such errors was reported. I tried desinstalling pidgin and reinstalling it (using synaptic). Any suggestion? | 10:54 |
Flynsarmy | icewaterman: tcpdump reports 'no suitable device found' and wireshark doesn't have any interfaces i can select | 10:55 |
icewaterman | Flynsarmy: that is strange, do ifconfig | 10:55 |
bilbo_pingouin | (it worked fine with 7.10) | 10:55 |
icewaterman | bilbo_pingouin: i use pidgin and it works fine with ssl/tls connections to the server | 10:55 |
russs | ice how can i add that search applet ? | 10:56 |
icewaterman | right klick the upper desktop-bar and add applet | 10:56 |
Flynsarmy | icewaterman: what am i looking for? | 10:56 |
icewaterman | Flynsarmy: it is something like "search for files or so" | 10:56 |
bilbo_pingouin | icewaterman: ok, it seems I am the only one having that problem... :s | 10:57 |
icewaterman | dunno the exact english word, because i am using a localized version that translates all that stuff | 10:57 |
jzitt | Or is there a way that I can get all the right stuff from a repository? Or have I just made my PC useless? | 10:57 |
icewaterman | bilbo_pingouin: i even used it on googletalk myself | 10:57 |
icewaterman | bilbo_pingouin: look out for tools->certificates. maybe you need to add the certificate there (though at least for googletalk, that should not be necessary) | 10:58 |
icewaterman | bilbo_pingouin: it is only required for self-signed certificates and certificates signed by authorities not recognized by ubuntu | 10:59 |

nazgjunk | By now I've reinstalled amarok, amarok-xine, xine-ffmpeg and some other things | 10:59 |

andycas | Assid: Yeah, but my kernel is fked.. Sorry cant help you right now | 11:01 |
ronin1234 | did they change hardy to only work with uuid's and not device names? | 11:01 |
icewaterman | russs: you can add the applet, just look for a computer icon with a red button in the lower right corner (it contains a magnifying glass) | 11:01 |

icewaterman | jzitt: your problem is that you are using an experimental installation method. most of the people will not know how it is done (including me) as we do not have an eepc and therefore no reason to install ubuntu this way. my guess is, you can put the packages somewhere on the stick (probably in /var/cache/apt/archives/) but as i have no idea how your setup works, cant tell you for sure - so cant everyone else. | 11:08 |

jzitt | anto: Well, I have networking working on my windows box, but none of it on the ubuntu box yet. | 11:09 |

weldan | twogood: yes, looks like alsa-oss not installed already. I give a try on it | 11:22 |
icewaterman | jzitt: you can try to install the packages manually using dpkg -i location from usbstick. though that is not really a good idea and could be time-consuming. my guess is you get wired lan running somewhere else. | 11:22 |
icewaterman | jzitt: you need to | 11:22 |
twogood | weldan: but i think that flash 9 should not require that fix, but hopefully it does not hurt to try | 11:22 |
Varan | Assid: I cannot find any reference to the datafiles in the init scripts | 11:23 |
Assid | i guess check the logs | 11:23 |

razee | HI | 11:25 |
razee | Can someone help me with cdrecord? | 11:25 |
anto | Guys it it possible to force a screenresolution onto a screen? | 11:25 |
icewaterman | razee: man cdrecord | 11:26 |
razee | I know the command icewaterman, | 11:26 |
icewaterman | anto: should be but whether it works or not depends on your hardware | 11:26 |
razee | But I wan help with the errors | 11:26 |
twogood | anto: System -> Preferences -> Screen Resolution? | 11:26 |
anto | twogood i said force xD | 11:26 |
icewaterman | razee: then paste the error and explain how you got to it. | 11:26 |
razee | Ok. | 11:27 |
Varan | Does anyone know why this command: http://www.linuxforums.org/forum/servers/54215-moving-mysql-datafile-another-location-2.html#post541016 <-- does not work on ubuntu it says: chcon: can't apply partial context to unlabeled file | 11:27 |
Varan | ? | 11:27 |
wers | i recorded a video but the file is too big for me to send online. how do I make my .MOV smaller | 11:27 |
twogood | anto: good luck :-) | 11:27 |
anto | icewaterman, my "main" screen can go to 1600x1024 according to nvidia-settings | 11:27 |
anto | icewaterman, my secondary screen is max 640 o.0? | 11:27 |
razee | It works with -force | 11:27 |
icewaterman | anto: ouch this is dual-head? | 11:28 |
icewaterman | anto: dual head is always a pain in linux | 11:28 |
anto | icewaterman, whats a dual head? | 11:28 |
razee | Otherwise it gives error on OPC. | 11:28 |
icewaterman | anto: you use 2 monitors on 1 pc | 11:28 |
anto | yeah | 11:28 |
icewaterman | anto: thats dual-head | 11:28 |
anto | it worked perfectly on previus versions of ubuntu | 11:28 |
icewaterman | and as already stated: it is a pain in the ass. | 11:28 |
anto | but i changed the secondary screen from ctf too lcd | 11:29 |
=== applegate is now known as linux_master | ||
anto | then it refuses to give my larger resolution | 11:29 |
DIFH-iceroot | i had the same problem, then i was using nvidia-x-setting for using 1440 *900 at both screens, just copy the xorg.cong created with the nvidia-tool to /etc/X11/xorg.conf | 11:29 |
DIFH-iceroot | with the ubuntu x-org tool it was not working (one screen jzst had 640*480) | 11:29 |
DIFH-iceroot | just | 11:29 |
anto | DIFH-iceroot, ill give it a try brb | 11:29 |
linux_master | Sorry to bother all of you, WHAT'S THE TOPIC NOW? | 11:30 |
icewaterman | linux_master: /topic | 11:30 |
DIFH-iceroot | anto: nvidia-settings jzst type it into the shell | 11:30 |
freemanO_o | hi everyone | 11:31 |
linux_master | Thanks icewaterman | 11:31 |
carlisle | Can anyone help me with a partitioning problem? I can't get my 140Gig partition formatted with FAT32. It fails in ubuntu and windows setup. Any solutions for that? | 11:31 |
Syeem | how do I register my nick? | 11:31 |
DIFH-iceroot | carlisle: does not work with gparted? | 11:31 |
icewaterman | carlisle: you do not want to install windows on fat32 and neither do you want to install linux on that | 11:31 |
freemanO_o | AVE SATAN! | 11:32 |
carlisle | gparted is that a ubuntu program? I only tried in setup. | 11:32 |
DIFH-iceroot | carlisle: its a graphical tool for formating hdds | 11:32 |
icewaterman | carlisle: therefore both OS will prevent you from doing that. if you just want to store data there, you can still manually format it and set it up later | 11:32 |
razee | This is what I get: Sense Key: 0x3 Medium Error, Segment 0 | 11:32 |
razee | Sense Code: 0x73 Qual 0x03 (power calibration area error) Fru 0x0 | 11:32 |
carlisle | DIFH ok thanks, I'll look for that | 11:32 |
razee | with cdrecord and wodim | 11:33 |
razee | New cd recorder, new cds. | 11:33 |
DIFH-iceroot | carlisle: http://linuxtoy.org/img/2007/07/gparted.jpeg this is gparted | 11:33 |
DIFH-iceroot | very nice tool | 11:33 |
DIFH-iceroot | carlisle: just type "sudo apt-get install gparted" | 11:33 |
icewaterman | DIFH-iceroot: will not help him if he is trying to install windows/ubuntu on 140GB FAT32 partition | 11:34 |
carlisle | gret, thanks ;) | 11:34 |
nazgjunk | how on earth is it possible that amarok played mp3 files fine yesterday, today did not and after a reinstall (including a complete wipe of all config files) it still doesnt | 11:34 |
DIFH-iceroot | icewaterman: why would anybode use fat32 for an OS? | 11:34 |
Syeem | nazgjunk: u'll need to instal the codec for mp3 | 11:34 |
Baron1984 | some people install Ubuntu on NTFS | 11:34 |
Baron1984 | I call them masochists | 11:35 |
DIFH-iceroot | windows = ntfs, linux = ext3, public = fat32 | 11:35 |
nazgjunk | Syeem: yes, I had that yesterday, and I still do today | 11:35 |
carlisle | it's a shared data partition. Hence the FAT32 | 11:35 |
linux_master | FAT32 is very old filesystem. Anyone know that? | 11:35 |
DIFH-iceroot | this is the way i am organisate my hdd | 11:35 |
nazgjunk | Which is why I'm really wondering how this is possible | 11:35 |
DIFH-iceroot | linux_master: of course, every usb stick use fat32 | 11:35 |
nazgjunk | I reinstalled those, too (xine-ffmpeg) | 11:35 |
Syeem | nazgjunk: most probably u're missing gstreamer package | 11:35 |
nazgjunk | er no, amarok doesn't use gstreamer | 11:35 |
Syeem | nazgjunk: try installing gstreamer packages | 11:35 |
icewaterman | carlisle: you are aware that fat32 is limited to 4GB files and cannot contain bigger files? | 11:36 |
elliotjhug | it's very common to use fat32 as an inbetween partition for linux and windows - and its more important to solve the problem than to question his motives | 11:36 |
linux_master | Not mine. My usb stick use NTFS filesystem. | 11:36 |
nazgjunk | oh god whatever | 11:36 |
nazgjunk | useless | 11:36 |
razee | Hi... anyone who can help with cdrecord??? | 11:36 |
elliotjhug | !ask > razee | 11:36 |
DIFH-iceroot | linux_master: hm why use ntfs in usb stick? | 11:36 |
DIFH-iceroot | on | 11:36 |
icewaterman | razee: no, until you explain your problem. | 11:36 |
Syeem | 11:37 | |
linux_master | It's simple, because my usb stick is 6 GB. FAT32 useless for mine. | 11:37 |
icewaterman | DIFH-iceroot: well if you have a really big usb stick and want to carry files > 4GB you need either ntfs or ext3. ntfs is the more comfortable version since ... | 11:38 |
icewaterman | linux_master: well unless you need to carry files >4GB that is not true | 11:38 |
linux_master | You're right. | 11:38 |
icewaterman | linux_master: fat32 can take partitions of up to 2TB (2*1024GB) | 11:38 |
Syeem | ah, it feels good to be registered user here :D | 11:38 |
icewaterman | just no bigger files than 2^32bit in size (=4GB) | 11:39 |
DIFH-iceroot | icewaterman: i dont handle files bigger than 4GB and even dont have usb sticks larger then 4gb | 11:39 |
linux_master | By the way, who will use FAT32 as fileformat? | 11:39 |
DIFH-iceroot | me | 11:39 |
DIFH-iceroot | my public drive is fat32 | 11:39 |
icewaterman | DIFH-iceroot: same here, but that doesnt mean there are no people that cover the need for files >4GB on a stick >4GB :) | 11:40 |
DIFH-iceroot | for music, movies and so on | 11:40 |
yufengcao | # ldap | 11:40 |
razee | I tried both wodim and cdrecord... The errors I got are: Sense Key: 0x3 Medium Error, Segment 0 | 11:40 |

razee | 3 Qual 0x03 (power calibration area error) Fru 0x0 | 11:40 |
razee | Cd writing works if I give -force | 11:40 |
linux_master | Oh, how my absurd. Are you have a server? | 11:40 |
DIFH-iceroot | linux_master: no, just using windows and linux on same machine | 11:40 |
icewaterman | linux_master: on servers you do not need fat32 for sure | 11:41 |
DIFH-iceroot | and i want so share files | 11:41 |
linux_master | What type of hdd do you use? | 11:41 |
DIFH-iceroot | 2 x 320GB (RAID 1) | 11:41 |
elliotjhug | linux_master: it's perfectly normal to use FAT32 - I use it on a 200gb media drive | 11:41 |
linux_master | Do ya know about seagate 10 TB hdd? | 11:42 |

TuniX12 | hello | 11:42 |
tj1515 | i need help choosing a video editing software . I recently had a death in the family and I was asked to make a slideshow to some music any suggestions ? I have no real knowledge of video editing except for making a couple with windows movie maker. | 11:42 |
TuniX12 | !hello | 11:42 |
ubottu | Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu! | 11:42 |
razee | Do I have to write more details? | 11:42 |
blue112 | How can I broadcast on a webradio on Ubuntu ? | 11:43 |
linux_master | Hello | 11:43 |
blue112 | is there an equivalent to sam broadcaster :/ ? | 11:43 |
elliotjhug | BM-Solid: It's probably changing the wrong volume control - try preferences under the top right volume control tool | 11:43 |
* PasiC says DIFH-iceroot: do use ntfs ... 'ubi' handles it perfetly | 11:43 | |
dr_Willis | !info icecast2 | 11:43 |

blue112 | I don't need a server | 11:43 |
elliotjhug | razee: Yes - please do - just ask a question and we'll do our best to answer it! | 11:43 |
blue112 | I've already a server | 11:43 |
BM-Solid | elliotjhug: how? | 11:43 |
razee | What creates OPC error? | 11:43 |
razee | Some calibration. | 11:44 |
razee | during cdrecord | 11:44 |
razee | also with wodim | 11:44 |
DIFH-iceroot | PasiC: i dont care what ubuntu does, there are other systems on my machine too, so i am using fat32 for trade files between the different systems | 11:44 |
elliotjhug | BM-Solid: There is a volume control in the top right of your screen - right click it and choose preferences and choose the Master or PCM device | 11:44 |
blue112 | I need an sam broadcaster equivalent, a client, not a server | 11:44 |
PasiC | DIFH-iceroot, if U use w$ AND Ubuntu ... use ntfs ... | 11:44 |
TuniX12 | razee also some CD marks or bad drive | 11:44 |
PasiC | why force fat? | 11:44 |
linux_master | Hello, back to topic please. | 11:45 |
elliotjhug | DIFH-iceroot: What are you actually trying to do for him | 11:45 |
DIFH-iceroot | PasiC: i am using fat32, end of discusion :) | 11:45 |
elliotjhug | DIFH-iceroot: *trying to do | 11:45 |
BM-Solid | elliotjhug: cant find it | 11:45 |
PasiC | OK, do it ;_) DIFH-iceroot | 11:45 |
razee | And just before that, it gives medium error., sot that would be possible | 11:45 |
elliotjhug | BM-Solid: You are using Gnome right? | 11:45 |
razee | But the same thing happens when I used a different medium | 11:45 |
Syeem | DIFH-iceroot: go for it dude... nobody can stop u | 11:46 |
TuniX12 | razee: yes | 11:46 |
BM-Solid | ubuntu | 11:46 |
razee | I mean a different drive. | 11:46 |
ronin1234 | re-installed 7.10 and everything works out of the box like it should | 11:46 |
* PasiC notes uses fat32 too, but not so large partitions ... | 11:46 | |
=== umarzuki is now known as mantoba | ||
razee | sorry, different CD | 11:46 |
razee | The drive is new. | 11:46 |
elliotjhug | BM-Solid: Yeah - there should be a picture in the top right of your screen that looks like a speaker | 11:46 |
TuniX12 | razee: different drive and different CD? | 11:46 |
linux_master | Someone who can tell me the weakness of FAT32 filesystem can claim they MacBook Pro gift. | 11:46 |
ronin1234 | yay for hardy the only edition of ubuntu that i can't love | 11:46 |
blue112 | Can someone help me ? | 11:47 |
elliotjhug | !ask | blue112 | 11:47 |
ubottu | blue112: 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. :-) | 11:47 |
emanuelez | hello | 11:47 |
PasiC | DIFH-iceroot, one more thing ... handling fat32 most slower than any other filesystems ... | 11:47 |
BM-Solid | ok I found it | 11:47 |
blue112 | Is there an equivalent to sambroadcaster on linux, not a server, but a client, to diffuse on a webradio | 11:47 |
andycas | how to make it so, that ubuntu wouldnt show my PC name on the network, so that i could not be identified? | 11:48 |
MayerEugen | actually which ubuntu version is next to lenny ß | 11:48 |
TuniX12 | linux_master: fat32 is universal but archaic | 11:48 |
DIFH-iceroot | PasiC: [] you know the meaning of "discusion is over" :) | 11:48 |
BM-Solid | elliotjhug: what must I do now? | 11:48 |
elliotjhug | BM-Solid: Right click on that speaker icon and go to preferences | 11:48 |
anto | icewaterman, everytime i restart X it modifies my xorg.conf..... | 11:48 |
razee | Ok... I'm quitting... | 11:48 |
BM-Solid | then? | 11:49 |
PasiC | LOL DIFH-iceroot ... let's talk about something else :) | 11:49 |
razee | I think it's a drive error. | 11:49 |
linux_master | You can claim you free gift at http://www.freemacbookpro.com\ | 11:49 |
icewaterman | anto: that means your xorg.conf contains an error. see /var/log/Xorg.*.log for details | 11:49 |
DIFH-iceroot | PasiC: ok :) | 11:49 |
Syeem | linux_master: fat32 drive it the first target for any bootsector virus plus partition table fuch-up related virus | 11:49 |
emanuelez | i'm using b43 to use a broadcom 4306 chipset but i can only get 802.11b speeds. any hint? | 11:49 |
elliotjhug | BM-Solid: Choose Master, or PCM or whatever speaker you want to control with your media keys in the list below the drop down menu | 11:49 |
makkan | my prism54 card (pcmcia) causes kernel panic on high network load, is there any way to throttle the bandwidth of a certain network interface? | 11:49 |
wers | who knows how to use avidemux? how do I make a movie smaller? | 11:50 |
Syeem | linux_master: if ur system is affected with any of such virus most likely ur fat32 drive will die 1st | 11:50 |
BM-Solid | Its maste | 11:50 |
icewaterman | wers: you need to know the basics about codecs, coding-settings and encoding. otherwise avidemux will not be of much use to you. but that stuff has nothing to do with ubuntu and is therefore off-topic | 11:51 |
elliotjhug | BM-Solid: Then that should be working fine then. What actually happens when you use the keys - does anything change at all? | 11:51 |
BM-Solid | yea | 11:51 |
BM-Solid | its done | 11:51 |
BM-Solid | thanks alot | 11:51 |

BM-Solid | but its workin now | 11:51 |
BM-Solid | thanks alot dear elliotjhug | 11:51 |
icewaterman | anto: that is just a warning. the file only gets replaced if you have an error (EE) | 11:52 |
elliotjhug | BM-Solid: np, happy to be of help | 11:52 |
xrc | what else there is to measure bandwidth besides iperf? | 11:52 |
linux_master | I suggest everyone to check-out channel #xubuntu | 11:52 |
elliotjhug | CRASH69: That probably needs a bug report - if you have some experience you might want to try an strace on it - otherwise your best bet is to report it | 11:52 |
tnek | Hi. I'm pretty new to Linux. I have a USB stick. How do I access it using Ubuntu from the command line? Is it auto mounted or do I create a directory in /mnt and mount it? | 11:52 |
anto | icewaterman, it keeps replacing that line | 11:52 |
elliotjhug | tnek: Should automount | 11:53 |
linux_master | tnek: it auto mounted | 11:53 |
PasiC | tnek, search for /media/disk (usually) but check mount command output | 11:53 |
Syeem | tnek: automounted , all u need to access to check where it is mounted, most comonly /media/disk or disk1 | 11:54 |
tnek | ah, checking now | 11:54 |
CRASH69 | elliotjhug: bug web? | 11:54 |
emanuelez | i'm using b43 to use a broadcom 4306 chipset but i can only get 802.11b speeds. any hint? | 11:54 |
Syeem | tnek: df -h should will giv u human readable format of where it's mounted | 11:54 |
tnek | hm, I only have cdrom and cdrom0 in /media | 11:54 |
elliotjhug | CRASH69: You report bugs at launchpad.net - it's fairly intuitive for reporting bugs like that | 11:55 |
tnek | ah, checking df -h | 11:55 |
linux_master | better check the #kubuntu | 11:55 |
PasiC | tnek or try it: sudo fdisk -l | 11:55 |

simonvc | Hey guys, i have an old laptop i'm using as a server, but after a while it puts it self into sleep mode. Is there anyway to disable apm/acpi completely. i never want this machine to be able to suspend/hibernate | 11:56 |
jaggy | hey, is it possible to chmod 777 a whole directory, and all his components, chmod 777 * only works for the current dir, but whats in the maps stays locked... :( | 11:56 |
elliotjhug | simonvc: I think you can disable support for it in BIOS | 11:56 |
tnek | Ah, df -H didn't do it for me. But sudo fdisk -l did it. :-) | 11:56 |
PasiC | jaggy, -R switch | 11:56 |
chmac | When I remove a package with syanptic it doesn't remove the dependencies it installed for that package which are no longer needed. Can I get it to do that somehow? | 11:56 |
jaggy | ok, PasiC ty | 11:56 |
elliotjhug | jaggy: chmod 777 -R | 11:56 |

linux_master | don't use green color, OK? | 11:59 |
Syeem | tnek: yes u need to mount it | 11:59 |
zvacet | chmac : you have opton complete removal and you should use it if you want to remove all related to package | 11:59 |
linux_master | don't use green color, OK? | 12:00 |
elliotjhug | Syeem: No guarantees but it looks like it's mostly intel stuff - and that tends to work fairly well out of the box on linux | 12:00 |
Syeem | elliotjhug: thnx | 12:00 |

tj1515 | yep for a funeral | 12:02 |
dr_Willis | Hmm... | 12:03 |
dr_Willis | Ive seen nero have that feature.. but cant think of any tools under linux that does it. | 12:03 |
tj1515 | i did one before with windows movie maker but i did not like the experience | 12:03 |
tnek | Thanks for all the help so far! :-) I did a mkdir /media/usbstick and then mount /dev/sdb1 /media/usbstick/ which worked nicely. In windows one should always "safe remove" usb sticks so that data in cache may be written to the stick. Does that mean I should unmount it under linux or can I just remove it? | 12:03 |
Syeem | tj1515: try OpenOffice presentation | 12:03 |
Syeem | tj1515: make ur presentation then add the music in it | 12:04 |
tj1515 | kinda like a powerpoint presentation | 12:04 |
dr_Willis | generate a slideshow avi, then convert it to dvd. i guess. | 12:04 |

TuniX12 | MrPink: i guess this audio server issue | 12:05 |
MrPink | TuniX12: What exactly does that mean? And is there a way to repair it ? | 12:05 |
askand | tj1515: http://www.getdeb.net/app/ManSlide ? :) | 12:06 |
tnek | All right. :-) Good stuff. Unmount I shall. Is there just an fstab entry to make it auto mount when I insert the usb-stick? Or do I have to have some kind of deamon running or something? (again, I'm using the mini.iso so I don't have all the stuff which comes with the normal .*buntu distributions. :-) | 12:06 |
TuniX12 | MrPink: maybe it doesnt use ALSA | 12:06 |

addeboy | Hello! I have a little misunderstanding here... I have 2x500 gb drives, that both of them were formatted in ntfs. I formatted one in ext3 with gparted, and mounted again. Now, in gparted, both of them have size of 465.76 GB, and the one formatted in ext3 have 7.5 GB used. The problem is that when i check in nautilus, there I see 435 GB free space, instead of 465.76 - 7.50 = 458.26 GB free space for the ext3 drive. The stats for the one in ntfs are corre | 12:15 |

along_ateh | i got problem when use live cd 7.04 and 7.10 | 12:17 |
dr_Willis | dlozarie, there are the free cups drivers.. and the non free comercial drivers. I think that printer may be in the non-free drivers | 12:18 |
TuniX12 | along_ateh: explain please | 12:18 |

=== icha is now known as keyza | ||
dr_Willis | European-African, what? alt-ctrl-bs kills X off instantly Right then and there.. and it wull try to restart (if you are using gdm) alt-ctrl-delete will kick the system in to the 'shutdown' runlevel. | 12:37 |
dr_Willis | European-African, use the menus and shut down properly is the best way | 12:37 |
dr_Willis | Theres easy, then theres 'proper' | 12:37 |

BoltClock | European-African: what is your purpose in doing it, uh, without seeing the screen? just curious | 12:39 |
dr_Willis | Your definition of safely is not the same as mine then. | 12:40 |
dr_Willis | bind the halt command to some key sequence I guess. is one way | 12:40 |
European-African | BoltClock: when the power turns off then the pc is on but not the screen. | 12:40 |

dr_Willis | European-African, for an emergancy the alt-ctrl-bs and alt-ctrl-del should work. but you have to get the timing right. I guess ya could also set up the power button to not ask what to do. but just go into shutdown mode. that may be a better soltion. | 12:43 |

Jordan | the last ubuntu update somehow broke my desktop. after i log in, i can catch a glimpse and the desktop and the taskbar, then i get thrown back to the log in screen. i suspect the xorg-update is at fault, but i have no idea. something similar happend 2 years ago (at least google says so), and the solution was to downgrade the xorg package. i would try that, but i need the last revision number. i don't really feel like downgrading to a two year old | 13:35 |
dgts123 | that was just too obvious | 13:35 |
bringatowel | :D | 13:35 |
dgts123 | it would however be more accessible with actual text indicating that.. | 13:35 |
dmseg | <Jordan> go easy not more than 3-lines ok | 13:36 |
bringatowel | tj83, if you want to test the whole drive to see if its reliable, yeah actually writing to the whole thing might be a good test, not sure exactly what command would be best | 13:36 |

bringatowel | Blinkiz, try pointing gisomount at the .toc file (or you might want to convert the .bin to .iso_ | 13:40 |
Jack_Sparrow | Blinkiz Normally I would use dd to create an iso of the cd and mount the iso | 13:40 |

atlef | dgts123: do you want to change that icon or all icons? | 14:16 |
amenado | exot-> btw init level 2-5 is same... you can sudo telinit 3 | 14:17 |
dgts123 | atlef, no i just need the location of the image file to assign it to a custom launcher in the panel | 14:17 |

atlef | dgts123: /usr/share/pixmaps or /icons | 14:17 |

eyes`only | Blinkiz: no, because that doesnt look like a cue file at all! | 14:52 |
jrib | amenado: no, but the path you gave before needs to have "local/" removed | 14:52 |
Chad_ | LimCore: I've tried everything on alsamixer, do you know any other way? | 14:52 |
jacob_linux | LimCore, history to make konversation work: (solved by another user) http://paste.ubuntu.com/20360/ | 14:53 |
LimCore | Chad_: ask #alsa for help (sometimes wait hours for guys that know) | 14:53 |
Blinkiz | eyes`only: So Brasero is using some kind of internal layout for it's 1:1 copy? I can only burn this to a real CD?! | 14:53 |
Assid | babolat: fdisk -l | 14:53 |
LimCore | jacob_linux: cool | 14:53 |
Jack_Sparrow | babolat they are unlikely to have the same exact number of cylinders.. sudo fdisk -l and compare to your drive specs | 14:53 |
along_ateh | bella: normally it related to power management but as u said it no problem with PM | 14:53 |
Assid | babolat: will list out your partitions for you.. you can also go to gparted | 14:53 |
LimCore | jacob_linux: it seems that once you executed your X session or something as root and that caused all the problems | 14:53 |
jacob_linux | LimCore, i can't remember why that sudo konversation is there for | 14:54 |
Chad_ | LimCore: Thanks, I think I might wait hours... hopefully not, but I just might | 14:54 |
amenado | jrib its not there either, no /usr/share/tasksel directory, am installing via alternatecd right now, I peeked at /target and /hd-media | 14:54 |
jacob_linux | LimCore, can you tell me in a different way =)? | 14:54 |
atlef | babolat: also your bios should tell you which is disk 1 and disk 2 | 14:54 |
babolat | Assid, Jack_Sparrow I've done fdisk -l and it shows me the list. cylinder numbers are different, but i'd like to identify which is seagate and which is barracuda because i plan to remove the one that i use less | 14:54 |
jacob_linux | LimCore, x session? | 14:54 |
LimCore | jacob_linux: wait | 14:55 |
jrib | amenado: I have the file here... | 14:55 |
atlef | babolat: ie. sda and sdb | 14:55 |
LimCore | jacob_linux: the sudo konversation is wrong. | 14:55 |
eyes`only | Blinkiz: checking... all docs say that brasero's default format is .iso | 14:55 |
Jack_Sparrow | babolat You should also be able to see in post on boot which one is where in your setup | 14:55 |
LimCore | jacob_linux: dont do that | 14:55 |
jacob_linux | LimCore ok | 14:55 |
Assid | babolat: its mentioned in the fdisk -l | 14:55 |
babolat | atlef, Jack_Sparrow sda = disk1 and sdb = disk2? | 14:55 |
larryone | amenado, that killed my wired connection | 14:55 |
larryone | amenado, it caused eth0 to stop working for some reason | 14:55 |
=== alalololaabolasd is now known as bEC | ||
Jack_Sparrow | babolat Get the specs on your drive.. it isnt hard to do | 14:55 |
LimCore | jacob_linux: use sudo ONLY if you 1) do some ADMINISTRATIVE task 2) in rare case when you use privilaged program that will not work otherwise and will not ask for password | 14:55 |
atlef | babolat: should be | 14:55 |
=== bEC is now known as bECiT | ||
MidnightHacker | excuse me i have a odd question | 14:56 |
amenado | jrib its in my installed system too, am curious as to where the installer finds that file.. | 14:56 |
hatta | I just installed xubuntu 8.04 | 14:56 |
Blinkiz | eyes`only: Maybe Brasero only uses ISO as format if it's a data cd? This is a audio cd. Maybe it's something special with that? | 14:56 |
hatta | with an nvidia card | 14:56 |

ubottu | MidnightHacker: 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. :-) | 14:56 |
jrib | amenado: are you sure it uses tasksel? | 14:56 |

ubottu | hatta:: 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. :-) | 14:56 |
hatta | my resolution won't go higher than 800x600 with the nv driver, or 640x480 with the nvidia driver | 14:56 |
babolat | atlef, http://paste.ubuntu.com/20364/ | 14:56 |
hatta | ok then | 14:56 |
amenado | larryone-> killed both eth0 and eth1 when you did a sudo ifdown eth1 ? | 14:56 |
hatta | I just installed xubuntu 8.04 on a machine with a geforce4 mx440. my resolution won't go higher than 800x600 with the nv driver, or 640x480 with the nvidia driver | 14:57 |
larryone | amenado, ifconfig told me eth0 was up, but I couldnt ping my router. I had to fiddle with the network settings to get eth0 back | 14:57 |
eyes`only | Blinkiz: ok i see... brasero uses .toc (cdrdao) for audio. researching | 14:57 |
hatta | I find lots of people having this problem when I google, but nobody with a solution | 14:57 |
jrib | !fixres > hatta (read the private message from ubottu) | 14:57 |
amenado | jrib per the content of ubuntu.seed file its "tasksel tasksel/first multiselect ubuntu-desktop" | 14:57 |
jacob_linux | what's an X session? | 14:57 |
atlef | babolat: that did not tell ME anything, maybe Jack_Sparrow could look at it | 14:57 |
MidnightHacker | i installed ubuntu and tried opening wvdial but it wont let me says im not the own root is but i never setup a root account when i installed ubuntu just my account i logon to? | 14:58 |
larryone | hatta, I had the same problem, what grahics card? | 14:58 |
hatta | geforce4 mx440 | 14:58 |
amenado | larryone-> eth0 has to have a route to the router for ping to work | 14:58 |
hatta | it worked great on 7.10 | 14:58 |
babolat | Jack_Sparrow, i was just wondering if i could find out which is which without having to reboot :) | 14:58 |
larryone | amenado, it does | 14:58 |
hatta | got a new hdd, did a clean install of 8.04 and it's broken | 14:59 |
jrib | amenado: don't know then | 14:59 |
Jack_Sparrow | babolat No, I dont know of any command that will tell you. | 14:59 |
koen_ | hi ! | 14:59 |
stemount^ | hi | 14:59 |
koen_ | i cant mount my hard disk | 14:59 |
amenado | larryone perhaps you can paste your ifconfig -a; iwconfig ; and route -n | 14:59 |
koen_ | how can i fix it | 14:59 |
larryone | amenado, it told me network unreachable when I tried to ping | 14:59 |
koen_ | i dont have windows anymore | 14:59 |
koen_ | :( | 14:59 |
babolat | thanks anyway, Jack_Sparrow | 14:59 |
babolat | off to BIOS then | 14:59 |
jrib | koen_: don't use enter to break up your thoughts as it makes it harder to follow what you are saying | 14:59 |
koen_ | ok | 14:59 |
amenado | larryone-> typically when its unreachable its because its missing a gateway to get there.. | 14:59 |
Jack_Sparrow | babolat as I said.. look at all of fdisk -l the one you posted is not complets... look up the specs on your drives and compare number of cyl heads etc | 15:00 |
jacob_linux | LimCore your looking into it? | 15:00 |
eyes`only | Blinkiz: http://www.linux-gamers.net/modules/wiwimod/index.php?page=HOWTO+CD-IMAGES | 15:00 |
larryone | amenado, http://pastebin.com/meb30969 | 15:00 |
LimCore | jacob_linux: I have to do other things now, but ask more here, or try ubutnu forums | 15:00 |
eyes`only | Blinkiz: my suggestion would be to burn to cd-rw, then reimage to .iso | 15:00 |
jacob_linux | ok | 15:00 |
ronin1234 | is there a full walk through for true software raid under hardy? | 15:00 |
koen_ | hi , i have a problem with my external harddisk it doesnt wanne mount :( , can someone help me with it? :/ | 15:00 |
larryone | hatta, did you enable the drivers in system -> administration -> hardware drivers? | 15:01 |
eyes`only | Blinkiz: brasero only saves to .toc if you select 'automatic' for file type. you can override that and select .iso | 15:01 |
bullgard4 | My GParted does not show the mounted partitions of a USB hard disk although Nautilus shows them. Is this normal? | 15:01 |
babolat | Jack_Sparrow, it would be helpful if that particular function was included in Ubuntu right? if some joe didnt have his screwdriver handy, it'd be quite the hassle :) | 15:01 |
Jack_Sparrow | ronin1234 It would depend on your definition of full walk through... I dont care for software raid | 15:01 |
Jack_Sparrow | babolat It could be figured out in less time than you have spent asking us | 15:01 |
Blinkiz | eyes`only: aha, thanks for letting me know. Okay, gonna try this bin/toc link converting you gave me a link about. brb | 15:02 |
atlef | babolat: have you tried searching the respective hardware manufactures for tech specs? | 15:02 |
ronin1234 | A command by command list of things to do to end up with a raid 5 array using mdadm | 15:02 |
babolat | i didn't mean to slight, Jack_Sparrow :) | 15:02 |
Jack_Sparrow | babolat If you had vbox or something you could run everest etc.. | 15:02 |
Vachanchochan | hello | 15:03 |
eyes`only | bullgard4: did you enable usb in /etc/init.d/mountdevsubfs.sh ? | 15:03 |
Jack_Sparrow | babolat You also have not done much to help us in getting you the naswer, like posting the full fdisk or posting the make and model of your drives | 15:03 |
amenado | larryone-> your eth0 is okay, your eth1 has not associated yet.. besides you dont want to have two paths to get to your same router lest you have modified your route table | 15:03 |
babolat | atlef, i dont think there's a need for that. i could just do as Jack_Sparrow had suggested.. | 15:03 |
atlef | babolat: ok | 15:04 |
babolat | Jack_Sparrow, as i've said, i did_not_intend_it_as_a_slight to ubuntu. i was just saying, so there's no need for the lip | 15:04 |
koen_ | could someone help me plx? | 15:04 |
jacob_linux | Jack_Sparrow, i think i know what's wrong with the privilages stuff | 15:04 |

ronin1234 | so thats a no? what worked on 7.10 does not seem to work for hardy | 15:04 |
koen_ | i cant mount my hard disk ( external) how do i do it ? :p | 15:05 |
MidnightHacker | i installed ubuntu and tried opening wvdial but it wont let me says im not the own root is but i never setup a root account when i installed ubuntu just my account i logon to? | 15:05 |
babolat | !fstab | koen_ | 15:05 |
ubottu | koen_: The /etc/fstab file indicates how drive partitions are to be used or otherwise integrated into the file system. See http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/fstab.html and !Partitions | 15:05 |
larryone | amenado, with my previous kernel, the led for my wifi lights up, it's never lit up with the new kernel. is this indicative of something? | 15:05 |
Jack_Sparrow | !gksudo > MidnightHacker | 15:05 |
jacob_linux | Jack_Sparrow, i put the ubuntu cd that i burned and when i try to browse that folder in the cd, what happens is that i keep getting that same directory over and over again, evern after double clicking on it | 15:05 |

Vachanchochan | Does anyone know of a way to stop the no-v-sync tearing effect in gnome. I have the nvidia drivers installed and hd acceleration works fine in full screen however as soon as I minimize anything it starts tearing again | 15:06 |
amenado | larryone-> yes, the driver perhaps is not loaded? you can verify with lshw -C network | 15:06 |

larryone | amenado, i'm running the latest available in synaptic | 15:19 |
Iteki | gotcha | 15:19 |
Iteki | still compsing it in my brain :) | 15:19 |
amenado | larryone then that must be the latest.. | 15:20 |
LinuxMonkey | Xpistos: there is a list located here: http://wiki.xiph.org/index.php/PortablePlayers that ive found by using google :) enjoy | 15:20 |
larryone | amenado, but if I try use an older kernel, wireless will work and i'll have 600x400 graphics again... | 15:20 |
Iteki | brb will see if all the updates i installed made a diff | 15:21 |
RealMF | guys, do your mozilla also keeps freezing up if there are to many pop-ups or open windows in 7.10 ? | 15:21 |
larryone | amenado, am I better off trying to fix graphics on the older kernel? | 15:21 |
amenado | larryone possibly, fix X in hte older kernel | 15:21 |

Blinkiz | eyes`only: Thanks for all the help. It does not seems like ubuntu/linux can handle audio bin file with a toc file. Sad... Am forced to burn the bin file to a real CD and then copy it again with another tool that creates a regular iso file. | 15:22 |
Jack_Sparrow | Drk_Guy eject might work.. from cli | 15:22 |
Drk_Guy | Blinkiz, maybe mount -o loop anything.bin | 15:23 |
eyes`only | Blinkiz: exactly what i suggested ;) | 15:23 |
Drk_Guy | ? | 15:23 |
eyes`only | bullgard4: lines 4-7, yess | 15:23 |
Blinkiz | Drk_Guy: Sorry, don't work. | 15:23 |

Jack_Sparrow | Drk_Guy Umount: Example assumes the first partition..../eject /dev/sdc1 and umount /dev/sdc1 (with umount you could also use the mountpoint like umount /media/USBDRIVE | 15:23 |
Drk_Guy | Blinkiz, there must be a converter | 15:23 |

eyes`only | poisonkiller: a hdd with bad sectors just continues to get more and more bad sectors, imagine a tool with rust on it... the rust just grows and grows and eats the tool | 16:03 |
dgts123 | poisonkiller, or have the bad sectors only within a partition you just don't use | 16:03 |

Flynsarmy | eraldo: apt-cache search build-essential | 16:03 |
A1 | no prob Flynsarmy thanks for the help anyway m8 :-) | 16:03 |
eyes`only | dgts123: that's using a theory that the bad sectors don't grow, which is improbable. | 16:03 |

Flynsarmy | eraldo: You on hardy? | 16:05 |
eraldo | Flynsarmy: do I need to have the sources Repos enabled aswell ? | 16:05 |
FreeFull | amenado: The wifi part doesn't show until I connect the USB wifi adapter, but then after a few seconds it crashes (And instead of showing "wireless adapter" the name switches between "Wired connection" and "point to point connection") | 16:05 |
poisonkiller | eyes only: well, there hasnt been any psyhical shock, and its brand new | 16:06 |
eraldo | Flynsarmy: yes 8.04 64bit | 16:06 |
dgts123 | eyes`only, no external usb hdd i mean.. but with no seperate power cord | 16:06 |
elitemind | aww never mind that worked good | 16:06 |
eyes`only | poisonkiller: brand new with bad sectors? yikes. | 16:06 |
Flynsarmy | eraldo: Ahh...not sure. i'm relatively new to ubuntu aswell :P but if you have all the default ones in the sources.list enabled it'll be there | 16:06 |

perplexed | howdy guys... Im about to install ubuntu for the first time, anything I should know? I have a 120 gig drive, this wont be a multi-user system, aside from possibly giving a few of my close friends ssh access to help work on some projects, etc. What should the partitioning scheme be? I read some of the docs on help.ubuntu.com, but i just thought i'd get some immediate opinions from you guys.. | 16:49 |
MrPocknix | Ubuntu doesn't sense that I've got two monitors | 16:49 |

AlasdairA | perplexed: well you may want a separate /home, which can help when upgrading. And if you want to use XFS or similar you may need a separate /boot partition | 16:51 |

Zaiden | I'm being told to use a certain command in a bash. What is a bash and is it possible to create one? | 16:52 |
perplexed | DIL: there is a default partition scheme? | 16:52 |
dr_Willis | !bash | Zaiden | 16:52 |
ubottu | Zaiden: The linux terminal or command-line interface is very powerful. Open a terminal via Applications -> Accessories -> Terminal (Gnome) or K-menu -> System -> Konsole (KDE). Guide: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UsingTheTerminal | 16:52 |
perplexed | i wanted a separate /usr, /home, and /boot | 16:52 |
dr_Willis | Zaiden, you got a few hrs of reading of tutorials to do I think. | 16:52 |
perplexed | i have 120 gigs, trying to figure out how to break it up accordingly | 16:53 |

perplexed | brand new laptop with vista, im wiping this darn thing off. | 16:53 |
sh00p | yeah he does | 16:53 |
dr_Willis | Zaiden, bash is the default 'command line shell' used under ubuntu and most linux disrtos. | 16:53 |
Zaiden | Didn't know bash = terminal :/ | 16:53 |
DIL | perplexed: put the cd in and go with it if you see something you don't like adjust it later | 16:53 |
kat_aq | is it possible to like, film whats going on o my desktop.. sorta like taking a screenshot just, filming in stead | 16:53 |
funkyHat | perplexed: I would suggest that unless you are planning to use hibernate, you create a swap partition no bigger than ½ your RAM size, and unless you have special requirements I would create a 10GB / and use the rest for /home | 16:53 |

superkuh | I am on 8.04 x86_64. I am trying to make the debian menu visible in the 'Applications' menu of gnome.

MrPocknix | Dual monitor settup thats been working for *months* | 16:53 |
FreeFull | perplexed: how much RAM have you got? The swap partition might be important. | 16:53 |
perplexed | Zaiden: bash is a shell, a terminal is something like eterm, rxvt, etc | 16:53 |
perplexed | FreeFull: ohh yea, and swap. 3gig | 16:53 |
Zaiden | sorry | 16:54 |
perplexed | amd64 arch. amd turion 64 x2 | 16:54 |
* DIL is perplexed | 16:55 | |
diepes | perplexed: i would use lvm that way you can easily re-size later | 16:55 |
perplexed | should swap be 6gig since i have 3gigs of memory? | 16:55 |
perplexed | or is that entirely too much? | 16:55 |
Gutsy_Rocks | Chad_: check http://www.kinodv.org/article/static/3 if u have missed any dependecy | 16:55 |
funkyHat | perplexed: that's way too much, it'd be a waste | 16:55 |
perplexed | diepes: not even familiar with lvm | 16:55 |
perplexed | funkyHat: thought so | 16:55 |
FreeFull | Zaiden: bash is ran inside the terminal. It's bash that takes the commands that you type into the terminal. | 16:55 |
perplexed | should it just match the amount of ram then? | 16:55 |
Gutsy_Rocks | perplexed: waaaay too much | 16:55 |
funkyHat | perplexed: unless you're planning to use suspend to disc (hibernate) it doesn't need to match, ½ your ram size will be plenty | 16:55 |
Gutsy_Rocks | predius: just go for 2GB max | 16:56 |
Gutsy_Rocks | that should be enuf | 16:56 |

dmseg | <zetheroo> question? please ask your query | 18:00 |

waffe | imagine: pretty sure, how do i check | 18:02 |
Kamaria | Basically what happened was it scrolled down a bunch of stuff, and repeated it a few times, and then it stopped on a screen that had a bunch of messages, one which said 'unable to read partition' | 18:02 |
stroyan | Kamaria: What did it say before starting busybox? | 18:02 |
dmseg | <zetheroo> what did you change? | 18:02 |
eztk | Despite setting the screensaver to kick in after an hour, the screen still blanks after about 10 minutes. Is there an option elsewhere that I have overlooked? I'm using Hardy. Thanks. | 18:02 |
Kamaria | I didn't have any way to save it, but it seemed like it was trying to load the OS multiple times before failing | 18:03 |
dmseg | <zetheroo>if you can swith everything back to default | 18:03 |
Kamaria | That's my guesss, I'm no expert | 18:03 |
waffe | for example if i play a youtube video and leave firefox open, i dont have any sound in totem\whatever. i have to close firefox and reopen the movie player | 18:03 |

Born_In_Xixax | eztk: check the power settings under preferences, there is a screen power down option that probably kicks in before your screensaver | 18:04 |
imagine | waffe: well, sudo apt-get upgrade && apt-get update for start could help | 18:04 |
Kamaria | stroyan: So basically there were a few errors that basically said it couldn't read the disk for some reason, but I know the disk's not shot | 18:04 |
eztk | born_in_xixax : Thanks. I'll have a look. | 18:04 |
dmseg | <zetheroo>did you have the problem after installing hardy? | 18:04 |
stroyan | Kamaria: So you are using the same system for IRC and the boot attempt? You can't see the screen and chat with us? | 18:04 |
zetheroo | dmseg: this is the message I am getting "audiotestsrc wave=sine freq=512 ! audioconvert ! audioresample ! gconfaudiosink: Failed to connect stream: Invalid argument" | 18:04 |

Born_In_Xixax | eztk: hmm, perhaps a bios power setting? | 18:05 |
stroyan | Kamaria: Can you mount the hard disk and examine the /boot/grub/menu.lst on it? | 18:05 |
dmseg | <zetheroo>anything you did new to invoke this problem | 18:05 |
slimjimflim | dmseg, yes, it supports some output formats i need for a new project | 18:06 |
eth01 | any channel op's around? :) | 18:06 |

shoot^ | guys, am having some really irritating issues, using FGLRX. glxinfo, fglrxinfo and compiz all crash my system and scramble my screen on Hardy. It's done it on all the Hardy Kernel versions I've used, right up to current -19. FGLRX is the repository version, also tried Envy. Any ideas? | 18:32 |

dmsuperman | I'm having a video issue. Every time I reboot, I'm put into low settings mode. If I reinstall my driver, then restart X, it's fine until next boot. I fixed it before but just reinstalled it. I remember that I basically had to remove the driver and everything else associated with it and do a fresh install of it. How do I do that? (nVidia 7900GS KO with the latest driver) | 18:36 |

larryone | if I want to use ndiswrapper for my intel card, do I have to blacklist iwl3945?? is it just a matter of adding one line to the modprobe.d blacklist file? | 18:37 |
arpan_ | everything runs well on my Ubuntu machine | 18:37 |
Iteki | how come we have to use alsa? can we not just install regular drivers? | 18:38 |
arpan_ | except programs in WINE, which needs to access the internet | 18:38 |
dennda | Heya | 18:38 |
arpan_ | the programs simply cannot connect to the internet | 18:38 |
zvacet | Tobias92 : in about:plugins see if flash is installed | 18:38 |

Iteki | but if our files arent in alsa, can we not just install regular drivers? do we need to uninstal alssa as well in which case? | 18:39 |
mich1 | I just finished installint Ubuntu 8.04 LTS. But my screen's resolution is stuck at 800x600 (the only other option is 640x480). In System > Administration > Hardware Drivers, it says that the Restricted Driver is "in use" but the Enabled checkbox is unchecked. I have an old Geforce2 MX graphics card. I've tried the shell script that you get from nVidia.com, the 1.96 something GPU and I've been able to run it until it completed. But after I restarted and booted | 18:39 |
Tobias92 | npwrapper.libflashplayer.so is installed according to about:plugins zvacet | 18:39 |

Possum | Hi, is there any documentation on the differences between installing ubuntu from within windows as opposed to directly from the livecd? | 18:53 |
Ward1983 | if i try to make a sound recording with sound-recorder it tells me my sound settings are not right and i need to change them, what could be wrong? everything is unmuted, i use optical spdif as sound output and want to use a regular (analog) microphone as input | 18:53 |
IndyGunFreak | mich1: hmm, well i've never had to do that, but its as good an idea as any, try runnning sudo nvidia-xconfig | 18:53 |
randomn00b | quick question: In win xp, it is possible to arrange two or more application windows, by ctrl-leftclicking them at the bottom and then rightclicking at selecting something like "arrange horizontally" - Does ubuntu hardy have a similar feature, perhaps a keyshortcut? thx | 18:53 |
gooody | IndyGunFreak: by the way, i just installed broadcom. do i need to restart my system in order for nm-applet to appear in taskbar? | 18:53 |
IndyGunFreak | gooody: i wouldn't think so, but maybe | 18:53 |
Flannel | Possum: when you install it through wubi (directly from windows) it installs into a single file on your windows partition. You can remove it later with add/remove. It doesn't change your bootloader. | 18:54 |
mich1 | IndyGunFreak: Do I open a new terminal window or just close Nvidia X Server Settings? | 18:54 |
gr1m | hi all | 18:54 |
IndyGunFreak | mich1: just close nvidia x server settings, and you should be able to use the same terminal window. | 18:54 |
Possum | Flannel, I see, actually he wants to remove windows now though :( | 18:54 |
thruxton | Possum: you mean wubi? http://wubi-installer.org/ | 18:54 |
Iteki | i did this: "sudo apt-get install build-essential" and then tried to run my thang, and then it says i should consider adjusting PKG_CONFIG_PATH because other library elements aret available... like gdk and gtk stuff... | 18:54 |
Possum | thruxton, I assume that's what he used, it's packaged in the 8.04 disk? | 18:55 |
gooody | IndyGunFreak: is the nm-applet the same as the network connection icon on the taskbar? | 18:55 |
thruxton | Possum: it might be, i havent used it to be honest | 18:55 |
mich1 | IndyGunFreak: that was odd. can you look at this ? http://paste.ubuntu.com/20428/ | 18:55 |
IndyGunFreak | gooody: hold on, i'll look | 18:55 |
QUILz | Iteki: It means you need to install those development libs | 18:55 |
Ward1983 | randomn00b, that was even possible in windows 3.11 i'm curious too if its possible with ubuntu | 18:55 |
Possum | thruxton, ok, thanks | 18:55 |
gr1m | I have a bug with intel high definition audio driver on 8.04. can you help me guys? | 18:56 |
randomn00b | Ward1983: yeah, that's exactly whats bothering me :D | 18:56 |
velko | Iteki, yeah build-essential contains just the essential dev stuff: compiler, make, etc. if you want to compile a gtk app you need the -dev files for gtk | 18:56 |
mich1 | IndyGunFreak: Should I restart my computer now? | 18:56 |
Iteki | QUILz: thanks! is that something i can do in a big bunch like i did with install build-essential? can i do like "install gtk" or something? | 18:56 |
Iteki | and velko thanks too :) | 18:56 |

Iteki | QUILz: is that a standardised way of coming up with what to dl? just ad lib before and -dev after? | 19:03 |
Ward1983 | LimCore, aha, i thought one should allways do both | 19:03 |
jeffwheeler | zyx386: try learning about Linux editors; try emacs, vim, and gedit | 19:03 |
Ward1983 | LimCore, but then again i dont do any illegal crap | 19:03 |
velko | dare, /path/to/dvd is the main dvd folder containing the subfolders audio_ts and video_ts | 19:03 |
bullgard4 | Plugging in my external USB hard disk will automatically mount its 4th ext3 partition /dev/sdb4 to the mount point /media/Rest. How can I change that to '/media/BackupMD'? | 19:03 |
dru | i tryed installing photoshop using wine .. i fillowed the promt page on the wine website and even did ... wget http://kegel.com/wine/winetricks; sh winetricks corefonts vcrun6 .... but when i try installing photoshopcs2, all i get is a blank page | 19:03 |
grendal_prime | hey guys quesion..i just made a connection to anouther machine with ssh using the following method. ssh -L 2800:localhost:2800 'your.server' Question is..how do i now take that connection down? | 19:03 |
Ward1983 | LimCore, so i dont need services like TOR | 19:03 |
LimCore | Ward1983: tor is for stoping bad guys from spying on you | 19:03 |
Ward1983 | yeah right lol | 19:03 |
BM-Solid | no answer? | 19:04 |
LimCore | Ward1983: you are seriously missinformed about stuff | 19:04 |
IndyGunFreak | zyx386: if you have the source code for notepad, i don't see why not, but what does notepad do, that gedit or leafpad won't? | 19:04 |
dare | velko, thx but any way to do it with eg vlc? | 19:04 |
randomn00b | the onion router is one hell of a project imho | 19:04 |
QUILz | Iteki: Pretty much. Package names for the dev libs end in -dev as far as I know | 19:04 |
Ward1983 | LimCore, i dont care since im not interested in using such stuff | 19:04 |
edwardxp | i don't know how to create a dvd movie on here :( | 19:04 |
Bl4ckcomb | Ward1983, TOR just generates a random hostname so other users can't see your actual hostname. Nothing more/nothing less | 19:04 |
LimCore | Ward1983: cool, then do not spread FUD about it | 19:04 |
gorg_ | IndyGunFreak: i've also seen a newspaper review of ubuntu in norways biggest newspaper (www.vg.no) which was very approval to ubuntu, but they also experienced this with rythmbox | 19:04 |
zyx386 | jeffwheeler, thanx i use vim to, bot with notepad++ as webdesigner have more function, for example textFX, Validate conver, ftp.. IndyGunFreak | 19:04 |
velko | dare, i don't know. don't use vlc. but if you look for a graphical player try smplayer. it's a nice frontend to mplayer | 19:04 |
zyx386 | *but | 19:04 |
Iteki | QUILz: appreciate it, thanks! i will just keep downloading and installing stuff till it stops throwing complaints at me so | 19:04 |
Ward1983 | LimCore, as i said thats what i read... | 19:04 |
dare | velko, ok. | 19:05 |
IndyGunFreak | gorg_: i don't doubt you, i just don't use rhythmbox | 19:05 |
IndyGunFreak | zyx386: ok.. | 19:05 |
LimCore | Ward1983: then dont repeat hear-say from dubious sources | 19:05 |
velko | grendal_prime, type "exit" | 19:05 |
jeffwheeler | zyx386: I strongly recommend you become more familiar with Linux utilities; Emacs, for example, can do all those things | 19:05 |
Ward1983 | LimCore, it appeared as a serious article to me | 19:05 |
hir1 | Hi Frends. | 19:05 |
hir1 | I need an answer on one question. | 19:06 |
LimCore | Ward1983: if this articla statted that by using TOR you allow others to do illegal activities from your computer, as you written a moment ago, then it is totall nonsense | 19:06 |
Bl4ckcomb | zyx386, have you used Bluefish before ? | 19:06 |
zyx386 | jeffwheeler, notepad++ is GNU editor and opensource, why isn't for linux available? | 19:06 |
velko | !ask | hir1 | 19:06 |
ubottu | hir1: 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. :-) | 19:06 |
legend2440 | edwardxp: if you mean authoring a dvd so it plays on a dvd player then devede in synaptic is a good one | 19:06 |
gorg_ | IndyGunFreak: which one are you using, i'd like one which sucks little resources | 19:06 |
xorand | I lost my xp boot option on my grub menu (don't ask). Could someone please show me a dual boot script so that I may edit mine to how it was? | 19:06 |
zyx386 | bluefish is Sick | 19:06 |
LimCore | zyx386: is its code portable? | 19:06 |
zyx386 | LimCore, yes | 19:06 |
hir1 | I am using Ubuntu 8.04 and installed wine 1.05 rc... and need unicode support... how can i do that? | 19:06 |
LimCore | zyx386: then dunno... perhaps not enought interest? if it IS fully protable then... just build it | 19:07 |
zyx386 | http://notepad-plus.sourceforge.net/uk/site.htm | 19:07 |
Ward1983 | LimCore, yep you told me, i read about it now | 19:07 |
IndyGunFreak | gorg_: depends on what you use rythmbox for... if you use it as kind of a "full feature" music manager, I like Banshee, or if you have kdelibs installed or don't mind installing them, Amarok is nice.. if you need an Ipod manager, i use gtkpod | 19:07 |
amee2k | how do i set the command for special keypress request (alt-uparrow) with the new init system? | 19:07 |
jeffwheeler | zyx386: because nobody has interest in doing so, and because it uses win32 apis such that it would still have to run under wine | 19:07 |
Ward1983 | LimCore, anyway can i look for an answer to my question now? i wont ever take the word TOR in my mouth again | 19:08 |
zyx386 | jeffwheeler, i hate wine :) | 19:08 |
enos | Whenever I read something on the net regarding "run" the following it shows something like "#!/bin/bash" and then a list of things unknown to me. What does it mean to "run" this? | 19:08 |

zetheroo | please help | 19:09 |
velko | enos, run means executing a program. the equivalent of double clicking on a program's icon in a gui | 19:09 |

randomn00b | sry for post | 19:14 |
armenb | im having a problem installing ubuntu onto a raid1'ed pair of disks. | 19:14 |
armenb | rather, the installation process went fine | 19:14 |
armenb | but the part that involves grub'ing off either one of the two disks does not work. | 19:14 |
Iteki | wow, it picked up my cellphone when i put it in to charge... thats nifty | 19:14 |
poisonkiller | hello | 19:14 |
armenb | my first instinct is to blame the device mapper. is there any reason why i have to use the device mapper at all in ubuntu? | 19:15 |
hkais | hello | 19:15 |
LtL | xorand: http://rafb.net/p/g1qWwR46.html | 19:15 |
poisonkiller | what should i do when my ubuntu installation just freezes at creating ext3 partition? | 19:15 |
Standalf | hi | 19:15 |
hkais | is there any script which determines if a defined set of packages are installed, and if not it installes it? | 19:15 |
xorand | LtL- thank you :) | 19:15 |
LtL | xorand: no problem. | 19:16 |
blue112 | I need some help to get idjc work, can someone help me ? | 19:16 |
armenb | dont know anything about idjc | 19:16 |
Standalf | how can I graphically log as root? and if I will do it will I be root after restart? I hope not :) | 19:16 |
armenb | anyone know anything about ubuntu booting off raid1? | 19:16 |
velko | hkais, what do you mean by that? apt, aptitude and synaptic all understand and install automatically dependencies | 19:16 |
Iteki | hmmm says it doesnt know what libgdk2.0-dev is ... | 19:17 |
hkais | velko: i need it in a installer script | 19:17 |
poisonkiller | what should i do when my Ubuntu 8.04 installation freezes whole installation and mouse at creating ext3 partition? | 19:17 |
Iteki | or gconf .... how would i know what packages these are in? | 19:17 |
zyx386 | brb | 19:17 |
velko | hkais, any reason not to use one of the aforementioned programs? | 19:17 |
IndyGunFreak | poisonkiller: try the alternate installer maybe.. or reburn the iso, and burn it SLOW...(yes it makes a difference) | 19:17 |
Iteki | ah wait i see i think | 19:17 |
Iteki | no... | 19:18 |
hkais | velko: how can i script them. I want to use my script for a wide range of servers | 19:18 |
poisonkiller | IndyGunFreak: i have 7.10 installation to, freezes at the same point | 19:18 |
IndyGunFreak | poisonkiller: are you trying to upgrade, or do a clean install? | 19:18 |
hir1 | OK, this is the catch.. i need to run Win32 application under Ubuntu... but it is writen with Macedonian 42f Unicode... and i wish to run the PC with Ubuntu.... so, any help? | 19:18 |
blue112 | I need some help to get idjc work, can someone help me ? | 19:18 |
poisonkiller | IndyGunFreak: clean install | 19:18 |
velko | hkais, apt and aptitude are command line utilities. you call them like that: apt-get install X Y Z or aptitude install X Y Z | 19:18 |
IndyGunFreak | poisonkiller: well.. then like i said, either reburn the iso, and burn it slow(2-4x is best), or use the alternate install cd | 19:19 |
purpzey | Can someone tell me what repo I need to add to get the emerald-themes package? | 19:19 |
Iteki | i am getting this: http://paste.ubuntu.com/20431/ and i dont know what more packages it wants installed | 19:19 |
IndyGunFreak | Iteki: do you have build-essential installed?.. and what are you trying to compile | 19:20 |
poisonkiller | IndyGunFreak: i have 2 ubuntu CD-s, both ordered from ubuntu's homepage, and they malfunction at the same place, i think it isnt CD-s fault | 19:20 |
IndyGunFreak | poisonkiller: it wouldn't be the first time CD's from Canonical have failed, but good luck on it.. | 19:20 |
Iteki | i did build-essential first :) and then i did gtk (a bit impressed with that!) and then tried to recompile. i am trying to install camorama to test my webcam | 19:20 |
=== pascutti is now known as pascutti|away | ||
poisonkiller | IndyGunFreak: im quite sure CD-s arent responsible for that :P | 19:21 |

IndyGunFreak | Iteki: you do realizea that camorama is int he repositories, right?.. no need to compile it | 19:22 |
Agu10 | how can I configure my 2 monitors to work well? | 19:22 |

Agu10 | the models are not in that list | 19:22 |
Agu10 | can you help me? | 19:22 |
IndyGunFreak | Iteki: open a terminal and type "sudo apt-get install camorama" or search synaptic packagemanager(system/admin/synaptic), and searchf or camorama | 19:22 |
IndyGunFreak | Iteki: always check the pacfkage manager.. its way way way way way way easier than compiling from source | 19:23 |
JigmeDatse | I'm having an issue with my startup of fsck.ext3 (?) not correctly determining that the drive is clean. | 19:23 |

Agu10 | hey | 19:23 |

vext01 | hi, I am trying to install ubuntu on my girlfriends laptop, which is a toshiba satellite s1800-700. It has a broken cd drive and no network connectivity. I have installed ubuntu on a disk in my thinkpad and put the disk into the satellite, but X fails to start even after using the rcovery kernel to "fix" X. How can I configure X? I cant seem to find xorgconfig. thanks | 19:23 |
IndyGunFreak | poisonkiller: so you obviously need a new computer | 19:23 |
Agu10 | Ubuntu is a shit | 19:23 |
Agu10 | I cant configure my screens | 19:23 |
Agu10 | :@ | 19:23 |
velko | Iteki, maybe you're missing other libraries also. just look for messages like "Package libgnomeui-2.0 was not found in the pkg-config search path" | 19:23 |
IndyGunFreak | Iteki: i just told you, system/admin/synaptic package manager | 19:23 |
hkais | Agu10: what is your problem? | 19:24 |
poisonkiller | IndyGunFreak: ah... i hope it doesnt come to that | 19:24 |

IndyGunFreak | velko: he doesn't even need to do that, the program he wants, is in the repositories.. | 19:24 |
Agu10 | no | 19:24 |
Agu10 | because | 19:24 |
velko | IndyGunFreak, oh... | 19:24 |

IndyGunFreak | velko: i've tried telling him that 3x | 19:25 |
Iteki | thanks guys | 19:25 |

Mr0815 | @IndyGUnFreak: well the thing is i already did it and this grub loader doesnt work | 19:27 |

Iteki | IndyGunFreak: whats wrong is that there is none. i looked at the ALSA site and my card isnt there (realtek) but my controller is kinda (intel) but it only has up to 6 and i have 8 .. | 19:27 |
IndyGunFreak | Mr0815: well, thats one common problem w/ it.. usually you need to use the alt. install cd, or manually mount grub and point it at the external, bigger problem is, the USB port speed creates a bottleneck when trying to run the OS. | 19:27 |
Agu10 | no | 19:27 |
Agu10 | I cant | 19:27 |
velko | pub, don't do that | 19:28 |

vext01 | hi, I am trying to install ubuntu on my girlfriends laptop, which is a toshiba satellite s1800-700. It has a broken cd drive and no network connectivity. I have installed ubuntu on a disk in my thinkpad and put the disk into the satellite, but X fails to start even after using the rcovery kernel to "fix" X. How can I configure X? I cant seem to find xorgconfig. thanks | 19:29 |

IndyGunFreak | Iteki: i take it you're on a laptop? | 19:31 |
Mr0815 | @IndyGUnFreak: so you mean it'd be better to install it on the internal drive. Well, i just fear that it will mess up my computer, a | 19:32 |
vext01 | velko: I am told it is writing a new xorg.conf but it makes no difference upon retrying | 19:32 |

vext01 | velko: which command? | 19:33 |

Born_In_Xixax | vext01: dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg is what i'm familiar with | 19:36 |

vext01 | hkais: and other X11 systems :P | 19:56 |
dacubuntu | no actually... i think u can run winrar with wine | 19:56 |
Iteki | IndyGunFreak: i have to use my imagination, i have no actual knowledge to work with yet ;) uninstalled vista this morning. output == 2.6.24-18-generic #1 SMP Wed May 28 20:27:26 UTC 2008 i686 GNU/Linux | 19:56 |
dacubuntu | cant u? | 19:56 |
IndyGunFreak | w3D: not sure if this helps, but i've heard winrar will work w/ wine. | 19:56 |
arpan | i think doing suso apt-get install rar | 19:57 |
arpan | works | 19:57 |
Born_In_Xixax | w3D: package 'ubuntu-restricted-extras' will install rar support (as well as a bunch of other prprietary stuff), so you can double click the file from the GUI | 19:57 |
dacubuntu | yeah... | 19:57 |
evilbug | can someone help me with a web design issue? | 19:57 |
gus_ | INDY GUN FREAK | 19:57 |
arpan | and after that you can even unrar from gui | 19:57 |
Agu10 | it seems that ubuntu will never be as easy as windows | 19:57 |
velko | !case | gus_ | 19:57 |
dacubuntu | just google 'unrar in ubuntu' | 19:57 |
ubottu | Factoid case not found | 19:57 |
Agu10 | in windows it works very well | 19:57 |
Agu10 | :S | 19:57 |
Agu10 | but i will try | 19:57 |
dacubuntu | agu10: ubuntu is easier, it just doesnt have as much support | 19:57 |
arpan | I would like to differ Agu10 | 19:57 |
IndyGunFreak | !prefix | gus_ | 19:58 |
ubottu | gus_: 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 :) | 19:58 |
dacubuntu | commercial support that is | 19:58 |
Agu10 | the drivers for windows come with the monitor | 19:58 |
Agu10 | for linux no | 19:58 |
Agu10 | :S | 19:58 |
vext01 | velko and Born_In_Xixax: thanks for your input , but i think we will try out some other OS on this machine to see what that makes of this | 19:58 |
Agu10 | that is the problem | 19:58 |
xorand | Agu10- linux allows one to learn more about the computing experience, not just what microsoft puts in fron of you :) | 19:58 |
Jack_Sparrow | Agu10 PICNIC (problem in chair not in computer) oh an keep in mind ubuntu/linux is NOT nor is it trying to be windows so referring to it here is a null argument | 19:58 |
dacubuntu | exactly... the companies dont provide linux support | 19:58 |
w3D | !info unrar-free | 19:58 |

IndyGunFreak | dual displays is easy w/ nvidia | 19:59 |
Jack_Sparrow | agreed | 19:59 |
Agu10 | ? | 19:59 |
kernco | Alright, it is rebuilding the fs tree. Hopefully everything will be recovered | 19:59 |
Agu10 | explain me what do i have to do? | 19:59 |
arpan | i tried setting up the dual monitor by editing the config file, but I screwed up and it crashed, somwhow I got things back by restoring the previous config file | 19:59 |
kernco | They should put whoever made this fs behind bars | 19:59 |
dacubuntu | tell u what............ agu10... google it | 19:59 |
kernco | oh wait... | 19:59 |
arpan | than did a apt-get for nvidia settings and things are running well | 19:59 |
dacubuntu | i dont think there could be a better resource | 19:59 |
velko | kernco, hahahaha | 20:00 |

arpan | what is the problem with proprietary drivers | 20:00 |
Jack_Sparrow | Agu10 Stop hitting enter after all of these fragments of sentences.. Thank you | 20:00 |
arpan | evenb under windows you get the best performance out of any piece of hardware by using a proprietary hardware | 20:00 |
Agu10 | ok | 20:00 |
IndyGunFreak | arpan: some people are just really anal about non-free(as in thought) stuff. | 20:01 |
arpan | yes @IndyGun | 20:01 |
adac | which tool does show me all the smb folders that different hosts in a network offer? | 20:01 |
Agu10 | in the screen preferences it says: ati radeon (fglrx) | 20:01 |

Agu10 | in this PC | 20:02 |
arpan | but made a complete switch a couple of months earlier | 20:02 |
Jack_Sparrow | Agu10 Stop hitting enter after all of these fragments of sentences.. I will not ask again | 20:02 |
dacubuntu | not all features work on the live cd... as far as i tried | 20:02 |
arpan | and I love it | 20:02 |
arpan | bye viruses, bye bye spyware | 20:02 |
w3D | could someone help me install rar from terminal | 20:03 |
w3D | i still havent gotten used to the commands | 20:03 |
arpan | @w3d so this | 20:03 |
Jack_Sparrow | arpan Glad you like it.. Please stay on topic | 20:03 |
arpan | sudo apt-get install rar | 20:03 |
IndyGunFreak | i think the package is actually called unrar-free could be wrong though | 20:03 |
xorand | arpan- still good to keep security in mind. Linux is not immune to damage | 20:03 |
Jack_Sparrow | !rar | 20:04 |
luka | aa | 20:04 |
IndyGunFreak | xorand: this is true, but common sense will usually keep you safe on Linux.. | 20:04 |
brianherman | i need help, can anybody help me with a nyko airflow? | 20:04 |
arke | good evening. :) | 20:04 |
ubottu | rar is a non-free archive format created by Rarsoft. For instructions on accessing .rar files through the Archive Manager view https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FileCompression. There is a free (as in speech) unrar utility as well, see !info unrar-free | 20:04 |
IndyGunFreak | w3D: until you get used to terminal for installing, learn to use synapgic.. its the same thing. | 20:04 |
IndyGunFreak | just w/ a gui | 20:04 |
arpan | yes, that is true Xorand, I use it to develop in PHP in my spare time | 20:04 |
=== ubuntux is now known as ubuntux001 | ||
w3D | IndyGunFreak: i have been doing so, but i wasnt sure on the correct package | 20:04 |
jamesK-Pipes | #pipes | 20:05 |
xorand | IndyGunFreak- commonsense is a scarce commodity ;) | 20:05 |
Amoeba | this broadcom chip is pissing me off | 20:05 |
IndyGunFreak | w3D: just search synaptic for unrar, it will come up | 20:05 |
arke | Amoeba: wifi? :)\ | 20:05 |
Jack_Sparrow | xorand nothing is so perfect a user cant mess it up | 20:05 |
brianherman | i need help, can anybody help me with a nyko airflow? | 20:05 |
arpan | it sure is Xorand, btw, anybody got wxDfast working with rapidshare premium | 20:05 |
IndyGunFreak | xorand: lol, you don't have to tell me that, i work in a maximum security prison..lol if they all had it, they wouldn't be there | 20:05 |
Amoeba | yup | 20:05 |
w3D | shall do | 20:05 |
arke | Amoeba: if so, that's the same reason I just joined :/ | 20:05 |
arke | Amoeba: working, but only connects when it feels like it | 20:05 |
Amoeba | arke: dell d820 w/Hardy? | 20:05 |
xorand | IndyGunFreak- lawl | 20:05 |
Iteki | is synaptic anything to do with the winvironment anti-virus? | 20:06 |
Agu10 | i have ubuntu installed in another computer. I have a GPU driver problem. The GPU model is ATI 9250 128mb chip rv280 and i dont have 3d aceleration | 20:06 |

amenado | Amoeba-> the infamous bcm43xx eh? ahh... | 20:06 |
arpan | I have been trying it for the last half an hour, no results | 20:06 |
Amoeba | arpan: yeah. the lil bastard | 20:06 |
arke | but yeah, bcm43xx :( | 20:06 |
Amoeba | couldn't have the intel chip, noooo that would be too easy | 20:06 |
hkais | Agu10: ati will not provide 3d drivers fpr this old card | 20:06 |
IndyGunFreak | arke: i thought broadcomm got much easier w/ 8.04 | 20:06 |
arke | It did | 20:06 |
Jack_Sparrow | Amoeba this is for feisty but comes highly recommended BCM43xx https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx/Feisty_No-Fluff | 20:06 |
Amoeba | got tg3 module in, card refuses to enable | 20:07 |

ubuntux001 | Hi everyone : i've ubuntu installed with windows vista under ruby ... ubuntu is installed in a 20Go partition ... and now i need more space (about 100Go) ... Question : Is there a risk to lose my data if i increase my ubuntu's partition by the vista's partition manager ? | 20:07 |
Amoeba | Jack_Sparrow: I can downrev to feisty | 20:07 |
arpan | I have a broadcom chip in one of my IBM laptops, | 20:07 |
Agu10 | can i make it work in another way? | 20:07 |
arke | unfortunately, sometimes it will just take ages trying to connect until it times out | 20:07 |
Jack_Sparrow | Amoeba It doesnt make you downgrade, it is just a good tutorial on how to froce bcm43xx to work | 20:07 |
Jack_Sparrow | force | 20:07 |
Amoeba | Jack_Sparrow: nodnod.. saw it, was hoping there was an updated ver for hardy. | 20:08 |
Jack_Sparrow | Amoeba I have several bcm43xx working just fine | 20:08 |
hkais | Agu10: 3d not. 2d yes | 20:08 |
Amoeba | wil wander through I suppose | 20:08 |
Agu10 | strange... | 20:08 |

arpan | have any of you heard about or use magicjack under ubuntu ? | 20:08 |
Amoeba | Jack_Sparrow: thx. | 20:08 |
hkais | Agu10: go to ATI, they are not willing to privide drivers | 20:09 |
amenado | ubuntux001-> risk gets higher if you use vista to resize..am not sure if the vista can format to a linux compatible formats | 20:09 |
Jack_Sparrow | arke No problems an the Dell lappys I have them in .. | 20:09 |

arpan | but it can also be used with skype out using Internet communication center from tigerjet usb | 20:09 |
IndyGunFreak | G U S _ you completely destroy the point of prefixing your sentence w/ my name, when yo put spaces in my name.. and i never told you to go to system preferences | 20:10 |
Kamaria | Well, no success it seems | 20:10 |
ubuntux001 | amenado so what should i do to increase space in my case ? | 20:10 |
IndyGunFreak | !tab | gus_ | 20:10 |
ubottu | gus_: You can use <tab> for autocompletion of nicknames in IRC, as well as for completion of filenames and programs on the command line. | 20:10 |

brianherman | jacksparrow: can you help me with a nyko airflow? | 20:10 |
r3m0t | when I save an image or open a downloaded file in the latest firefox, it crashes | 20:10 |

gus_ | :( | 20:11 |
ubuntux001 | amenado could you give a famous tool to do it ... i'm just an ubuntu newbie | 20:11 |
IndyGunFreak | gus_: lol, well, thats better, all you have to do is type the first few letters of my name(say, Indy), and hit tab, and it will auto complete, assuming nobody elses name starts w/ indy | 20:11 |
Jack_Sparrow | Amoeba Did you look in the blacklist? | 20:11 |

tux666 | The repos installed the driver better than Envy did, in a few repeat tests by me, Jack_Sparrow, It set the kernel module to load proper and all. Where EnvyNG forced me each time to correct loading of the kernel module. Both did fine on xorg.conf. Just so you know, since you seem to help alot | 20:49 |
tyranos | Jack_Sparrow, i think it was the deb package from alberto milone s site | 20:49 |
Jack_Sparrow | tux666 exactly my point.. and I wonder why he wont answer my question | 20:49 |
FAJALOU | Every time I turn it on, and wait for it to start, the screen goes black, and then it will turn back off, and I will see the screen, | 20:49 |

DeFirence | sigh | 20:53 |
FAJALOU | killlux, what is your q? | 20:53 |
Jack_Sparrow | tyranos I cant help you undo what that version of envy did.. someone will know .. | 20:53 |
Iteki | could anyone give me an example of how the mountpoint might look when mounting an iso ? | 20:54 |
R`CarpeDiem | Guys, is it possible to start a i386 from a .sh script? | 20:54 |
DeFirence | ok, someone just tell me, what to set the hostname to so that sudo will work? thats all i want to know | 20:54 |
Jack_Sparrow | Iteki Make a mount point... sudo mkdir /media/mydrive ...mount using... sudo mount -t iso9660 -o loop /home/jack/Desktop/KNOPPIX_V5.0.1CD-2006-06-01-EN.iso /media/mydrive | 20:54 |
Matthew12 | one more unrelated question: has anyone experienced Rhythmbox refusing to play? Like, you press play but it won't do anything until you restart the comp | 20:54 |
Bhavesh | R`CarpeDiem: what do you mean i386 ? | 20:54 |
tritium | DeFirence: the hostname is irrelevant to sudo | 20:54 |
Luxx16126 | Is anyone using "dell inspirion 1520" atm here?? would ask smthg about it :P thank you ! | 20:54 |
ompaul | R`CarpeDiem, that is an interesting question, however it is totally lacking in context | 20:54 |
Iteki | is a mountpoint a folder in other words Jack_Sparrow? | 20:54 |
R`CarpeDiem | Bhavesh: I want to start openarena.i368 from a sh script | 20:55 |
Flannel | Iteki: It is. | 20:55 |
DeFirence | tritium: i JUST installed ubuntu and sudo says unable to resolve host, this is rediculous | 20:55 |
Iteki | groove thang, cheers! | 20:55 |
tux666 | All Envy does is install the driver. ATI's/NVidia's script are pretty good at removing remains of installs now. Just set X not to use the driver until you get the new one installed. | 20:55 |
Jack_Sparrow | Iteki yes, mounts in medi will show up on your desktop | 20:55 |
Jack_Sparrow | media | 20:55 |
tritium | DeFirence: did the install complete properly? | 20:55 |
tux666 | Really, their uninstall scripts are pretty good now at searching for the pieces of the driver | 20:55 |

tyranos | SeaPhor, that might be a good idea indeed , thx | 20:57 |
ompaul | DeFirence, here is an interesting comment, I run lots of ubuntu desktops and never saw that error before either | 20:57 |
R`CarpeDiem | ompaul: I would like to start openarena.i386 from a .sh script | 20:57 |
SeaPhor | tyranos, sudo apt-get --purge remove packagename | 20:57 |
DeFirence | someone said a minute ago they had that error | 20:57 |
erUSUL | DeFirence: i have seen it from other people and the steps i gave you cured the error for them | 20:58 |
Jack_Sparrow | Bhavesh What problems are you having with the livecd | 20:58 |
DeFirence | i downloaded the ubuntu cd, installed it, set my ip to static and then tried to sudo and its broken | 20:58 |
DeFirence | WTF | 20:58 |
tritium | erUSUL: what is the source of the problem? | 20:58 |
tyranos | SeaPhor, didnt help there lies the problem, something is wrong with libGL.so.1 and all packaging software throws errors | 20:58 |
Jack_Sparrow | DeFirence Please don tuse that rude shorthand in here | 20:58 |
tritium | DeFirence: no need for foul acronyms, please. | 20:58 |

node357 | DeFirence, add your static IP to /etc/hosts along with your machine's hostname | 20:59 |
R`CarpeDiem | ompaul, ok ... | 20:59 |
ompaul | DeFirence, I would nearly suggest you reinstall cos it sounds like something broke | 20:59 |

Darlok_Williams | I'm still having a sound issue ever since installing Hardy - basically, if I play any kind of flash videos in Firefox that have sound, I can no longer use anything on my system to play sound. I get errors like this: ALSA lib pcm_dmix.c:874:(snd_pcm_dmix_open) unable to open slave[src/linux/sound.cpp, line 582]: 'snd_pcm_open(&pcm_handle,dev->info->device_fname,SND_PCM_STREAM_PLAYBACK,0)' returned 'Device or resource | 21:33 |

m-c | larryone: Just install 7.10 on a new hard drive partition and boot to it. | 21:34 |
Jack_Sparrow | Darlok_Williams See if this page applies to your problem http://wvarner.blogspot.com/2008/05/firefox-crashing-on-youtube-in-ubuntu.html Lets you use pulseaudio for flash (which lets you have audio in flash without having to close other programs using audio first.) and it prevents flash from ever crashing firefox. | 21:34 |
Jack_Sparrow | larryone no, you cant downgrade | 21:34 |
Jack_Sparrow | !downgrade | 21:34 |
ubottu | Attempting to downgrade to an older Ubuntu version is explicitly not supported, and may break your system. | 21:34 |
Dbproguy | Should I start out with Hardy or get an older version? | 21:35 |
Dbproguy | I've literally never used linux before, atm I'm preparing my system for partitioning | 21:35 |
=== Charitwo is now known as kirby | ||
alan_m | Dbproguy: you should definately start on hardy as it has the security updates from the older versions included in it. | 21:36 |
Jack_Sparrow | Dbproguy MOst of the bugs have been fixed in gutsy.. might make a nice placew to start.. dual boot if you want a play area for testing | 21:36 |
Darlok_Williams | Dbproguy: And definitely try the LiveCD a bit first. | 21:36 |

=== wobblyw2 is now known as tobblytu | ||
Darlok_Williams | Jack_Sparrow: I'm not sure that would solve my sound issue because it isn't confined just to Firefox. Trying to run any applications afterwards presents errors too (Amarok, Exail, pSX, etc...no sound)) | 21:38 |
gway9000 | working to solve probs is an excellent opportunity to learn linux as well | 21:38 |

jachee | oh fun... i'm gonna have to ndiswrap the driver for my WMP11v4... :( | 21:39 |
Darlok_Williams | Dbproguy: It's normal for the LiveCD to run fairly slow because the ENTIRE operating system is loaded into memory... lot's of swapping going on. I assumed when you said that you had "literally never tried Linux" that you hadn't yet used the LiveCD either. | 21:39 |
asmo[B] | I like simple and quick | 21:39 |
Darlok_Williams | Jack_Sparrow: It's exactly the same issue with PulseAudio though too. | 21:39 |
Jack_Sparrow | asmo[B] I dont have info on that fix the guy was talking about... | 21:39 |
rampageoberon | how can i find out how long a particular application has been running for? | 21:40 |
Whinze | Hi | 21:40 |
Slart | rampageoberon: I'm not sure you can get the actual clock time since it started.. you can get how much cpu time it's been using though | 21:40 |
Dbproguy | Well never tried linux as in installing it | 21:40 |
asmo[B] | is opera actually any faster? | 21:41 |
Whinze | How to unzip all packages in a folder, please ? | 21:41 |
Darlok_Williams | Dbproguy: Ah... okay :) You have a question about it? | 21:41 |
IndyGunFreak | Dbproguy: well, you chose the right distro to get your feet wet with. | 21:41 |
Slart | rampageoberon: check the system monitor.. it might even have some info process creation time.. haven't really looked | 21:41 |
Bodsda | rampageoberon, im not sure about particular apps, but you can tell how long your system has been running for with uptime | 21:41 |
Jack_Sparrow | asmo[B] Opera has a whol;e different set of issues | 21:41 |
Darlok_Williams | Whinze: You can highlight them all in the filebrowser and right-click. | 21:41 |
Whinze | Hmmm | 21:41 |
IndyGunFreak | asmo[B]: i dont think its faster/slower.. seems the same to me, but opera has its own issues. | 21:41 |
Whinze | ah not bad, thanks Darlok_Williams | 21:41 |
Dbproguy | I hear that ubuntu is the best place to start out with, switching from windows | 21:41 |
Whinze | thanks :D | 21:41 |
Darlok_Williams | !best | Dbproguy | 21:41 |
ubottu | Dbproguy: Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task. It's up to you to choose, depending on your preferences, features you require, and other factors. Do NOT take polls in the channel. If you insist on getting people's opinions, ask BestBot in #ubuntu-bots. | 21:41 |
Darlok_Williams | :) | 21:42 |
gway9000 | Darlok_Williams: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting this solved a similar issue i had | 21:42 |
jachee | Dbproguy: you heard right. :) | 21:42 |
IndyGunFreak | Darlok_Williams: way to post a completely irrelevant link.. | 21:42 |
Jack_Sparrow | Dbproguy You could do worse.. a lot worse | 21:42 |
IndyGunFreak | Dbproguy: its probably the most user friendly to start w/ out of the box. | 21:42 |
Darlok_Williams | IndyGunFreak: How on Earth is that irrelavent? He asked if Ubuntu was the "best"... there IS no best. | 21:42 |
IndyGunFreak | probalby h as the best hardware recognition.. but its not perfect by any means | 21:42 |
Dbproguy | Darlok_Williams, Well to make my vhoice in that I've got to try a few things | 21:42 |
alv1n^ | hi | 21:42 |
IndyGunFreak | Darlok_Williams: because he didn't ask what was best, he said he heard Ubuntu was the best distro tos tart out w/, he wasn't askin about best applications. | 21:42 |
markristos | hi | 21:43 |
Darlok_Williams | IndyGunFreak: Bleh... it's still a relavent factoid because it points out that it all depends on preference, specific needs, etc... get over it, please. | 21:43 |
IndyGunFreak | Darlok_Williams: relevant yes, just not in the manner you used it. | 21:43 |

danand | Y-Town - ah ok... pretty cool. All you need to do then is check the normal runlevel your machine runs in - type "runlevel" in a terminal. For me the output of this command is N 2 - so my default runlevel is 2. Place your script in /etc/init.d and then create a symbolic link in (for instance) /etc/rc2.d pointing to the script in /etc/init.d. ie ln -s /etc/init.d/no-ip.sh /etc/rc2.d | 21:54 |

Slart | tyoc: I think the easiest way, and the way other apps in ubuntu/linux does it, is to create a symlink in say.. /usr/bin | 22:02 |
gordonjcp | Merc: download it? | 22:02 |
tyoc | Slart: and is installed in a different directory, but it request to be added to the path | 22:02 |
gus_ | gordonjcp: well i have the same theme that the system starts off with when you first start it up | 22:02 |
ernijs | mDemocritus: i don't now how to tell | 22:02 |

Slart | tyoc: ah.. so it's more than just one or two files that has to be in the path.. | 22:03 |
gordonjcp | gus_: unless my memory is seriously faulty, that doesn't look much like Windows 98 | 22:03 |
gordonjcp | gus_: admittedly the last version of Windows I really looked at much was Win95 so I could be wrong | 22:03 |
tyoc | Slart: there will be no problems about the location? (I mean the programm will be able to see that the exe is on /usr/lib/extrapath/bin and not in /usr/bin??) | 22:03 |
cuco_ | windows ? here ? | 22:03 |
mDemocritus | ernijs: try a few other applications to see if you have slowdowns... try to test applications that you used in 7.10, see if they're slower than you remember | 22:04 |

Sannt | tommy_: no, i don't do that... | 22:36 |
tommy_ | newk, i use the nokia pc suite on my Vista | 22:36 |
joaopinto | shubbar, have you tried "frostwire" from the terminal ? | 22:36 |
dimebar | gus_: what are you trying to theme? what did you download? can you provide a link? | 22:37 |
Wolphie | Anyone know of a good IDE for gnome? | 22:37 |
tommy_ | Sannt, good, because there is inside information that the music industry are monitoring all Frostwire activity to sue people for (c) violations. so be careful | 22:37 |
shubbar | tommy_: :P but found an rpm package | 22:37 |
dimebar | vexille: change the permissions to who? your own user name? | 22:37 |
joaopinto | Wolphie, anjuta ? | 22:37 |
dimebar | Wolphie: anjuta? | 22:37 |
shubbar | joaopinto: whats that? | 22:37 |
tommy_ | shubbar, Ubuntu sux with printers. one of its problems they need to fix | 22:37 |

tatt | ne1 know why my trash icon show the basket full when the trash folder is empty?? | 22:38 |
Wolphie | Does it support the most common language highlighting? | 22:38 |

joaopinto | Wolphie, erm, you want an gtk IDE, or you want to develop GTK apps ? | 22:39 |

R2LM | If I would like to do some re-partitioning with gparted, I need to run it from either an external disk or CD, right? And it doesn't seem to be available on the Kubuntu Hardy LiveCD I've got. Is there a Live CD that comes with gparted? | 22:39 |
shubbar | joaopinto: bare me, how can that help in printing? | 22:39 |
dimebar | Wolphie: depends what language you want to develop in. It does for C/C++ but I don't think so for PHP, HTML, CSS (as it is a C++/C IDE) | 22:39 |
tatt | jachee: no theres not any hidden. also checked the root accounts trash and that is also empty | 22:39 |
joaopinto | asking for an IDE with PHP, XHTML and CSS is more to ask for a web IDE | 22:39 |

shubbar | tommy_: a Canon LaserShot LBP3300 | 22:40 |
tommy_ | scunizi, any ideas how I can get my Canon IP1500 to work on Hardy? | 22:40 |
joaopinto | for PHP/HTML/CSS I recommend eclipse and phpeklipse | 22:40 |
tommy_ | shubbar, it seems Canon sucks at working in linux :( | 22:40 |
vexille | dimebar: yes | 22:40 |
shubbar | scunizi: thanks, will check that site | 22:40 |

joaopinto | Darlok_Williams, that is something that needs to be implemented at the application level, on the case of the Add/Remove application there is no support to visit the links | 22:47 |
Darlok_Williams | joaopinto: Then why do the developers make the links blue? Isn't it common knowledge that blue links (link by definition suggests the ability to visit them) are clickable? :) | 22:48 |

scunizi | adude, gparted.. look under System/Admin.. also called partition editor. | 22:48 |

JC_Denton_ | whoops I just shift+deleted a dir I shouldnt have. Any tool you recomment to retrieve it? | 22:50 |
scunizi | smoked1, you might need to activate the restricted drivers. | 22:50 |
jussi01 | smoked1: also, kubuntu support is in #kubuntu :) | 22:50 |
tommy_ | shubbar, good luck | 22:50 |
tommy_ | shubbar, u may need to dual boot with windows | 22:51 |
uberspaced | anybody know where I can obtain libdvdcss.deb? | 22:51 |
smoked1 | I activated the ati drivers. I'll try #kubuntu | 22:51 |
scunizi | shubbar, when you installed cannon's driver how did you go about installing the printer? | 22:51 |
joaopinto | smoked1, glxgears is provided by the mesa-utils package, but I do remember that for the ATI driver there is a specific glxgears | 22:51 |
m-c | So, as I am understanding this, when I plug in a Bluetooth adapter, there should be a BT icon that appears in GNOME. Anyone know why this is not happening? | 22:51 |
shubbar | scunizi: it was a two .deb packages | 22:52 |
smoked1 | Thanks guys I'll try and get it figured out. | 22:52 |
m-c | Also, when I try to pair a device, there is no GNOME applet asking for a security code. | 22:52 |
joaopinto | m-c, open a terminal and type dmesg, an check for events that can provide you some clue | 22:52 |
Luhta | it's amazing what a little cooling can do, I went from 6000fps on glxgears to 10000fps on glxgears just by maximing cooling | 22:52 |

joaopinto | ryanakca, on rare cases the OS does not allow a process to be killed, it becomes hang | 22:59 |
scunizi | shubbar, "add new printer" and when you get to the spot for the driver/ppd file navigate to one of the ppd files you found. Make sure the default paper size is appropriate for your area. | 22:59 |

natha1 | i tried editing the xorg.conf and either i did it wrong or i dont know, it didnt work. sudo xrandr -s 1440x900 gives me "Size 1440x900 not found in available modes" | 23:03 |
fserve | Is there a way to get "rain effect" work with GMA X3100 + compiz? | 23:03 |
reinhold | joaopinto: My problem is that all ubuntu packages install tons of jar files in /usr/share/java, which the java compiler unfortunately does not load automatically. | 23:03 |
reinhold | joaopinto: So, I suppose that's a ubuntu issue... | 23:03 |
symeonp | I can't find the /etsw/resolv.conf file to edit.Im using the live edition any ideas? | 23:03 |
natha1 | i had this video card running 1440x900 in windows so it should work | 23:03 |
symeonp | /etc/resolv.conf * mistyped | 23:04 |
reinhold | joaopinto: Also, the #java channel says that all ubuntu-related questions should be asked here... | 23:04 |
joaopinto | reinhold, ok :P | 23:04 |
scunizi | natha1, you might not have the right driver loaded.. what's in xorg for the driver? | 23:04 |
ryanakca | joaopinto: splendid, thanks | 23:05 |
reinhold | So, how can I make the java compiler in ubuntu load the jar files from /usr/share/java??? | 23:05 |
shinynew | is there any way to boost the volume past '100%' | 23:05 |
Kamaria | Hey guys. I installed an earlier version of ubuntu...6.10, but now I can't find a source list for it... | 23:05 |
shinynew | I would guess tehre is, but I have no idea what I would look for to do it | 23:05 |
shubbar | scunizi: added a 2nd printer with the ppd driver, but still not printing. May be its the port? | 23:05 |
natha1 | in the xorg.conf it just has: | 23:05 |
natha1 | "Section "Device" | 23:05 |
natha1 | Identifier"Configured Video Device" | 23:05 |
natha1 | EndSection" | 23:05 |
natha1 | i tried adding video modes and such but it got screwed up and i restored it | 23:05 |
FloodBot1 | natha1: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 23:05 |
soldats | shinynew: i dont think our volume knobs go to eleven | 23:05 |
scunizi | shubbar, possible.. | 23:05 |
joaopinto | Kamaria, the repositories for 6.10 are no longer available | 23:06 |
Kamaria | Ack. | 23:06 |
Kamaria | I take it I should just upgrade. | 23:06 |
shinynew | soldats: really? I would image you could route all volume through something before it gets outputed | 23:06 |
shinynew | soldats: to make it louder | 23:06 |
joaopinto | yes, since it is no longer supported | 23:06 |
Kamaria | I had to install an earlier version because the latest wasn't working. | 23:06 |
scunizi | natha1, in the "Device" section of xorg there should be a driver listed. | 23:07 |
soldats | shinynew: im sure you could add a receiver before the speakers, do you have all the settings in alsamixer turned up, you should have the master, pcm, and the output turned all the way up | 23:07 |
shubbar | scunizi: "Parallel port busy" ? why? its on usb | 23:07 |
scunizi | shubbar, sounds like it's set for the wrong port.. | 23:08 |
natha1 | there is no driver listed and i dont know why there isnt, this is a fresh install | 23:08 |
natha1 | how do you suggest i get the driver installed correctly? | 23:08 |
scunizi | natha1, sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg might fix xorg back to the "beginning" | 23:08 |
natha1 | ive tried that, it does nothing | 23:09 |
natha1 | even without the -phigh, it asks me questions about my keyboard and nothing else | 23:09 |

STORM | i got the super grub cd | 23:11 |
shinynew | STORM: thats how I do it. | 23:11 |
IndyGunFreak | STORM: you need to get a windows boot disk, and run fixmbr and fixboot and that should fix the problem. | 23:11 |
STORM | my windows recovery disk? | 23:11 |
whileimhere | hi. Each time I start up XFCE it requests a password to my keyring. Is there any way to make it remember this? | 23:11 |
shinynew | STORM: super grub fixed it for me | 23:12 |
serkan`c | hello, is there anyone who knows something about WPA problems seen nowadays? | 23:12 |
avis | shinynew, super grub cd can create a MBR for windows ? i know someone that might try ubuntu, though he wont do it unless he can restore things to how they were | 23:12 |
scunizi | STORM, use fixboot first and try it.. then fixmbr | 23:12 |
joaopinto | shinynew, if he wants to restore the windows mbr, he doesn't need grub... | 23:12 |
IndyGunFreak | STORM: you might be able to do it w/ a super grub disk, not sure | 23:12 |

STORM | not sure how to fix it with super grub, i know how to get on to windows xp but i have to use the super grub everytime | 23:12 |

shinynew | anyone know how to diagnose and fix problems with tty1-6 | 23:13 |
STORM | then whats a boot cd or w/e? | 23:13 |
shinynew | i can't use any of them | 23:13 |
joaopinto | scunizi, it is not a recovery disl, its the "recovery" option from a regular windows install cd | 23:13 |
joaopinto | erm, not a recovery on the sense, of reinstall. I mean | 23:13 |
avis | scunizi, how do you access fixboot and fixmbr if you have vista ? | 23:13 |
IndyGunFreak | scunizi: i said a windows boot disk, not a recovery disk. | 23:13 |
scunizi | natha1, maybe just add that section... if it's an intel card use "intel" as the driver. | 23:13 |
joaopinto | scunizi, but please try ##windows for detailed help | 23:13 |
scunizi | avis.. no idea.. never used vista. | 23:13 |
STORM | not sure what u mean by boot disk.... | 23:14 |
scunizi | joaopinto, I don't need windows help.. it's the other guy that does.. | 23:14 |

I'm trying to to see if I can get two external monitors hooked up to my laptop, but as far as I can tell ubuntu can only use the monitor connected to the VGA port, regardless of what monitor I connect to it. | 23:40 |

Kamaria | I need to recover data off a formatted hard drive... | 23:42 |
dkt | Kamaria: what do you need to recover? | 23:42 |
scunizi | Windows98, vmware server v.1.x.x yes. with the any-any update (usually) I'm running v2.0 beta just fine but performance is the greatest. | 23:42 |
joaopinto | rainbowinfinity, you dont need to download it, it is installed from the repositories | 23:42 |
programmer | I'm trying to get compiz working properly on Hardy | 23:42 |
joaopinto | !repositories | rainbowinfinity | 23:42 |

Wolphie | joaopinto: LOL! | 23:43 |
dkt | Kamaria: use my name in your typing so i can see it please | 23:44 |
Kamaria | dkt: Okay | 23:44 |
Amun | on hardy heron, 8.04, i clicked install, it went through the process of gathering information, but sticks at "Detecting Filesystem..." and is stuck at 15%. It's been on that part for the last hour or so. Is there a known bug that does this? | 23:44 |
Kamaria | dkt: It was NTFS, now it's 2 NTFS, one swap | 23:44 |
Kamaria | dkt: and is now empty. | 23:44 |
Freetech | ?????? when i press the unlock button in network-admin nothing happens | 23:44 |
Wolphie | Is there a bug with ubuntu 8.04 regarding mounting USB hard drives ? | 23:45 |
dkt | Kamaria: i dont understand what you mean... | 23:45 |

matthew_ | anyone know a Windows equivalent of the Passwords and Encryption thing that would allow people I know to make their own keys? | 23:45 |
gway9000 | Kamaria: when you format a drive it blows the partition tables away | 23:45 |
dkt | Kamaria: you changed the partitioning? | 23:45 |
Kamaria | dkt: Yes | 23:45 |
Windows98 | is fedora good? | 23:45 |
jbroome | no | 23:45 |
dkt | Kamaria: and formatted the partitions in linux? | 23:45 |
joaopinto | Wolphie, I believe there is one which affects some pen usb models | 23:46 |
Hardolaf | i'm running Ubuntu in a virtual machine, how would i configure the network to work? | 23:46 |
IndyGunFreak | Windows98: its ok if you like RPM based distros.. | 23:46 |
gway9000 | Kamaria: you will have to image the drive and need a tool like autopsy to recover the files | 23:46 |
Wolphie | Mine isn't a flash drive, it's an external hard drive (Freecom Classic HD) | 23:46 |
programmer | can someone help me with a compiz configuration problem? | 23:46 |
joaopinto | Hardolaf, usually you set it to dchp, assuming vmware is providing a dchp service | 23:46 |
Kamaria | dkt: Yeah I used GParted | 23:46 |
dkt | Kamaria: read gway9000's comments | 23:46 |
Kamaria | gway9000: What programs can I use to image the drive? | 23:46 |
m-c | Anyone have Bluetooth working there? Do you get a BT icon in the notification area when you insert a BT adapter? I am having trouble pairing a keyboard device. | 23:46 |
joaopinto | Wolphie, ok, so it is not related to the bug I have seen | 23:46 |
tayfun | hey people | 23:47 |
tayfun | i have a question | 23:47 |
joaopinto | Kamaria, partimage | 23:47 |
tayfun | i hope u can help me here | 23:47 |
IndyGunFreak | Wolphie: are you trying to intall to an external drive? | 23:47 |
Wolphie | Oh no, just trying to mount it | 23:47 |
Kamaria | Thanks | 23:47 |
dkt | Kamaria: ghost, partimage, or just use dd ;-) | 23:47 |
Freetech | ?????? when i press the unlock button in network-admin nothing happens Can some one please help ??? | 23:47 |
IndyGunFreak | oh ok | 23:47 |
Wolphie | I managed to mount it on 7.10 | 23:47 |
gway9000 | Kamaria: dd does a bit for bit copy | 23:47 |
tayfun | i would like to know if there some other software from ubuntu like extra effects for desktop what i could install? | 23:47 |
tayfun | few more extras | 23:47 |
Wolphie | Just unable to on 8.04 | 23:47 |
gway9000 | Kamaria: not sure if partimage does bit for bit | 23:47 |
IndyGunFreak | Wolphie: weird, my external drives mount natively on my systems... | 23:47 |
dkt | tayfun: google compiz and ubuntu | 23:48 |
Hardolaf | joaopinto vmware offers 4 choices for the network connection, bridged, NAT, host-only, and no network. which one should it be set to. | 23:48 |
joaopinto | Wolphie, have you checked "dmesg" for errors when pluggin the device ? | 23:48 |
Kamaria | So just grab dd? | 23:48 |
Kamaria | How do I install that | 23:48 |
tayfun | dkt what should i write in terminal for this function? | 23:48 |
jbroome | Kamaria: should be installed by default | 23:48 |
tayfun | sudo-get install google or what | 23:48 |
joaopinto | Hardolaf, ah, you mean the vmware network config, that depends on your requirements, you really need to read about it's specifics | 23:48 |
Hardolaf | i know how it works, but i can't get any but the host-only to work. | 23:48 |
Wolphie | Yes I have, i know the errors, but it doesn't give me anything significant as far as i can tell | 23:49 |
Hardolaf | could it be a problem with the host operating system? | 23:49 |
=== root1 is now known as Windows98 | ||
Kamaria | Okay, typing dd into console just did nothing | 23:49 |
_ZeuZ_ | Hey guys, I have a problem with a wireless network interface, it was working in the last boot, now it autodeauthenticates itself with reason 3 according to dmesg, no matter if I turn my networks encription down or not, it will just not keep associated | 23:49 |
Windows98 | whats up???? | 23:49 |
Kamaria | and i's not letting me do anything else | 23:49 |
Wolphie | When i mounted it in 7.10, i manually edited fstab and changed the drive speed | 23:49 |
Chikubu | i have a dial modem driver that when i install it complies the driver, the problem is i have 162 updates that need to be applied... if the update fails, sometimes the modem driver is removed, it it won't recompile, can't find the headers i think it complains about.....how can i IDENTIFY which updates would interfere with compiling the modem driver, or not removed the modem driver and download them Manualy???? i wonder why dial up is so hard in ubuntu, the w | 23:49 |
dkt | tayfun: something like sudo apt-get compiz-extras | 23:49 |
gway9000 | Kamaria: yes you will need a 3nd drive equal to the drive in question to put the dd image | 23:49 |
joaopinto | Hardolaf, if it is not properly setup yes, I use vmware both with NAT and Bridged, no problems | 23:49 |
=== iSephr is now known as Sephr | ||
Kamaria | ouch | 23:50 |
_ZeuZ_ | Hey guys, I have a problem with a wireless network interface, it was working in the last boot, now it autodeauthenticates itself with reason 3 according to dmesg, no matter if I turn my networks encription down or not, it will just not keep associated... any idea what can be going wrong? | 23:50 |
joaopinto | Kamaria, partimage is a much better option than dd, dd is a raw tool, not very intelligent for imaging | 23:50 |
Hardolaf | joaopinto, how would i configure vista to do it properly. | 23:50 |
eye | I have a problem, I speak English a little and my laptop compaq presario V6000 sounds very bad, it's a Intel Corporation 82801G (ICH7 Family) High Definition Audio Controller (rev 02), an I use Hardy. Can somebody help me? | 23:50 |
Kamaria | OK | 23:50 |
kaka | what mean the msg "checking for C compiler default output file name... configure: error: C compiler cannot create executables" | 23:50 |
Herlaziness | what is the command line for gnome file explorer? thanks | 23:50 |
joaopinto | HardDisk, ah, you mean the host os, no, it would have to be the guest os | 23:50 |
dkt | _ZeuZ_: intel 3945abg network card? using iwl driver? | 23:50 |
scunizi | Herlaziness, nautilus | 23:50 |
joaopinto | kaka, sudo apt-get install build-essential | 23:50 |
_ZeuZ_ | dkt, no, bcm43xx card using b43 module as goods will with kernel 2.6.24 | 23:51 |
nickrud | Chikubu the kernel headers are what you want. Every time you update the kernel, you have to recompile your modem driver for that kernel. Run synaptic, and search for linux-image. You want to put the highest numbered version of the kernel and any other matching packages (like headers) on hold | 23:51 |
dkt | _ZeuZ_: sorry man.. just been fiddling with my laptop wireless cant help you with that one | 23:51 |
Kamaria | How do I open command console | 23:51 |
Kamaria | err | 23:51 |
Kamaria | I mean | 23:51 |
Kamaria | task manager | 23:51 |
FloodBot1 | Kamaria: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 23:51 |
scunizi | Kamaria, top | 23:52 |
_ZeuZ_ | i've asked in ubuntu+1 but no response... this is too much weird | 23:52 |
stemount^ | Kamaria: gnome system monitor does a similar thing to task manager | 23:52 |
Hardolaf | joaopinto, how would i set up Ubuntu to work properly with a bridged network? | 23:52 |
joaopinto | Kamaria, gnome-system-monitor | 23:52 |
Amun | on hardy heron, 8.04, i clicked install, it went through the process of gathering information, but sticks at "Detecting Filesystem..." and is stuck at 15%. It's been on that part for the last hour or so. Is there a known bug that does this? | 23:52 |

D3RGPS31 | Hardware Question - how can i setup my Adesso CyberTablet to be recognized as a tablet, it's recognized as a mouse (no pointer precision) | 23:52 |
mariot_ | while trying to build the latest alsa drivers I get the following error "configure: error: Sufficiently new version of libasound not found.", I installed the package from synaptic, is there a way to install a newer one from synaptic? | 23:52 |
joaopinto | HardDisk, you need to setup the host to use DCHP, or, you need to setup a static IP from the same subnet of the bridged interface (your real subnet) | 23:52 |
proleter44 | ich brauche -Antivirus Programme | 23:53 |
scunizi | D3RGPS31, you might want to read some of the threads on wacom.. they should be pretty close. www.ubuntuforums.org | 23:53 |
joaopinto | mariot_, what are you trying to achieve, why are you building alsa ? | 23:53 |

nickrud | mariot_ no, the latest is always available by default in the repos. (unless there's some in -proposed, see system->admin->software sources) | 23:53 |
ajhtiredwolf | Hey is there a site listing linux recommended graphics cards? Im planning on buying a new one and want to make sure its linux compatible | 23:54 |
D3RGPS31 | scunizi: thanks | 23:54 |
scunizi | ajhtiredwolf, stick with nvidia.. | 23:54 |
ajhtiredwolf | scunizi, that much i know ;) | 23:54 |
nickrud | mariot_ I wouldn't mention proposed (there for testing new packages before release) but since you're tying to compile kernel stuff ... | 23:54 |
derspankster | Rhythmbox won't continue to add tracks from my server. About 1/3 have been added. Now, it's stalled and has added no more. Path is correct. | 23:54 |
Hardolaf | joaopinto, would NAT be easier to set up then bridged | 23:54 |
scunizi | ajhtiredwolf, agp or pci.. value right now is in the 6000 series (solid) and 7000 series.. (I've no experience with these) | 23:55 |
_ZeuZ_ | Hardolaf, both require you to read about iptables. | 23:55 |
joaopinto | Hardolaf, not really, you just need to setup dchp or a static ip, either way | 23:55 |
joaopinto | _ZeuZ_, no they do not, not on a vmware guest config context | 23:55 |
ajhtiredwolf | scunizi, I was either thinking of buying this one http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814130318, or waiting for the new ones coming out this next week | 23:55 |
Hardolaf | i need to set it up in the host or the virtual machine? | 23:55 |
_ZeuZ_ | joaopinto, if you want to do it well setting it's ToS and QoS it to the lowest over the guest, you do. | 23:56 |
Luigi | Ok, when I boot up my computer about 2/3 of the time I get a black screen instead of the login screen. Last time I tried to login I came back to find an error message (and no desktop) telling me that the session had lasted less than 10 seconds and that there were a variety of errors encountered in display. I noticed two directly from compiz, one saying it couldn't find default0 or something. At the end it said that it had disconnecte | 23:56 |
Luigi | d from the bus or something and to press OK to reboot. When I rebooted, it didn't even get to the loading screen. So I rebooted again and went in with kernel 2.6.24-16 instead of 2.6.24-18, and managed to login. So, what should I do now? | 23:56 |
joaopinto | Hardolaf, you need to setup on vmware and at the guest level, at the guest level you only need a regular network config | 23:56 |
_ZeuZ_ | joaopinto, seems like you never managed a cluster of virtual machines... | 23:56 |
scunizi | ajhtiredwolf, sli is a different story.. check out some of the threads on that one on the forums. | 23:56 |
Baron1984 | can you do a BIOS flash in Wine? | 23:57 |
joaopinto | _ZeuZ_, we are talikng of a simple config for someone which is unable to do a regular network config to the vm, why do you need to complicate ? | 23:57 |
IndyGunFreak | Baron1984: im not sure i'd wan tto chance that. | 23:57 |
_ZeuZ_ | joaopinto, good point, but when you're going to do things, you gotta do them right. | 23:57 |
joaopinto | _ZeuZ_, I did not, because I never had the need | 23:57 |
ajhtiredwolf | scunizi, no plans for sli | 23:57 |
joaopinto | _ZeuZ_, what is wrong or right, depends on your objectives, which on this case, is not a cluster | 23:57 |
_ZeuZ_ | gonna compile again the clear unpatched module for b43 | 23:57 |
ajhtiredwolf | scunizi, just planning on getting one of the 8800gt's or waiting for the new cards coming out next week, think its dangerous to get a brand new card? | 23:58 |
mariot_ | when I send a message how do I designate a person I'm trying to draw attention from? | 23:58 |
Chikubu | nickrud, can i dl the headers manualy? cause when the dial up driver dies i have to boot into XP to dl | 23:58 |
scunizi | ajhtiredwolf, should be good in hardy.. I remember taht the 8800's had issues in gutsy. | 23:58 |
_ZeuZ_ | joaopinto, want the guest to have preferences over your bandwidth as VMware sets it? Fine, not my case. Suffer your configs wrath. | 23:58 |
onder | hi | 23:58 |
ajhtiredwolf | scunizi, hard is 8.04 right? | 23:58 |
marcules | Good Night :) | 23:58 |
scunizi | ajhtiredwolf, yep.. | 23:58 |
ajhtiredwolf | scunizi, k good thats what im using | 23:59 |
Hardolaf | joaopinto, how do i set up the network in ubuntu | 23:59 |
