|---|---|---|
| joaopinto | erm, was Hardolaf | 00:00 |
| Luigi | before my display systems freaked out, the time before that when I logged in it said my home directory had the wrong permissions and that there was something wrong with ~/.dmrc, so I went and fixed the permissions problem with my home directory when I logged back in all that happened. | 00:00 |
| joaopinto | Hardolaf, or manually, by editing /etc/network/interfaces | 00:00 |
| joaopinto | for help with the manual setup, man interfaces | 00:00 |
| Hardolaf | i'm not messing with manual in Ubuntu, that is what i have the gentoo distro for. | 00:00 |
| Luigi | Also, applications would occasionally die randomly. | 00:00 |
| ajhtiredwolf | scunizi, hmm yeah i am seeing some complaints about 8800gt's in 7.10 ubuntu | 00:01 |
| joaopinto | Hardolaf, well, that has no relation, you may have some manual configs, ubuntu is not config agnostic | 00:01 |
| ajhtiredwolf | scunizi, nothing about 8.04 though | 00:01 |
| scunizi | ajhtiredwolf, 7.10 had an earlier nvidia driver.. it's been updated in hardy | 00:01 |
| joaopinto | see you guys, sleep time | 00:02 |
| scunizi | joaopinto, nighty night | 00:02 |
| 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? | 00:02 |
| Eliah | moin zusammen ^^ | 00:02 |
| Hardolaf | joaopinto, i know but i still don't know the commands well. | 00:02 |
| scunizi | eye, some say to turn the volumn level down | 00:03 |
| eye | scunizi, the problem is still there... | 00:04 |
| scunizi | !sound | 00:04 |
| ubottu | If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3 | 00:04 |

| jdp | hello im a newbie to kernel compilation..im using ubuntu hardy....when i run uname -r it shows my kernel version as 2.6.24-16-generic...then in /usr/src are two folders linux-headers-2.6.24-16 and linux-headers-2.6.24-16-generic..do these folders contain the kernel source code thats needed for compiling the kernel ? | 00:10 |
| kunzy | thanks scunizi!!!! | 00:10 |

| Baron1984 | sudo mkfs -t vfat /dev/sda1 | 00:10 |
| scunizi | jdp, not sure but you need to do your updates.. you're 2 kernels behind .. the latest is -18 via "update" | 00:11 |

| Baron1984 | you can have Canonical send you a free disc with it | 00:12 |
| kunzy | scunizi: sorry, can i have that format info again? I guess it didnt copy to the clipboard | 00:12 |
| jdp | anyway, is a copy of the kernel source given out of the box with ubuntu hardy or do i need to separately download it from kernel.org ? | 00:12 |
| === cary_jebus[UDCS| is now known as Commie_Jebus | ||
| ASULutzy | scunizi: I've had no problems either, in both x86_64 or on 32bit, but just passing along what I've heard | 00:12 |
| scunizi | !format > kunzy | 00:12 |
| eye | scunizi, I don't know exactly what I did, I change my device, then I probe it, it was the same, so I change again, I selected again the first I had and it works | 00:12 |

| scunizi | chris0101, convert them first.. open synaptic and search on cue | 00:16 |

| Baron1984 | oh well, I just won't upgrade my BIOS, I doubt it supports memory remapping anyway | 00:16 |
| Baron1984 | I would kill for that | 00:16 |
| ASULutzy | Baron1984: Huh? | 00:17 |
| ASULutzy | Baron1984: What's the issue? | 00:17 |
| kredit | is there any personal good finance software out there for linux? something that can keep track of bank accounts, stocks, etc... | 00:17 |
| Baron1984 | ASULutzy: My BIOS doesn't support memory remapping, and is therefore limited to 3.2 GB of RAM out of 4 GB total | 00:17 |
| Baron1984 | even when using x86-64 OS | 00:17 |
| scunizi | kredit, kmymoney works nice. | 00:17 |
| ASULutzy | Baron1984: Really? What motherboard is it? | 00:18 |
| kredit | scunizi: thanks for the recommendation, ill try it out | 00:18 |
| Baron1984 | Intel 945G | 00:18 |
| m_newton | Postfix users, if you go to https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Postfix ; You will see commands like this [sudo postconf -e 'myhostname = server1.example.com'] what do i do at this point, I want to use my no-ip account to rescieve the mail. | 00:18 |
| scunizi | kredit, imports qfx files nicely too. | 00:18 |
| ASULutzy | Baron1984: That sounds more like a chipset than a motherboard | 00:19 |
| Commie_Jebus | my keybored dosnt have a caps light.. | 00:19 |
| Commie_Jebus | annoying... | 00:19 |
| Salu | Can someone link me to a tutorial explaining how to get the Creative X-Fi to work on Hardy? | 00:19 |
| ASULutzy | Baron1984: Oh ok | 00:19 |
| Baron1984 | I was going to upgrade my board to an MSI model that supports 8 GB anyway | 00:19 |
| m_newton | Postfix users, Basically, what do i put for 'myhostname' and 'server1.example.com' | 00:19 |
| Commie_Jebus | is there any ubuntu-based UMPCs | 00:19 |
| Commie_Jebus | well MID's | 00:20 |
| ASULutzy | Baron1984: Oh yea, looks like you're right actually. I found it surprising but yea, 945G only supports 4 GB ram | 00:20 |
| Baron1984 | yep, and it reserves a bunch for video card and carious other stuff | 00:21 |

| Threevenge | Okay, here's the issue: I'm trying to get Wine. I go through the Synaptic Package Manager and it gives me a "Could not mark all packages for installation or upgrade" error. Then it says this: "Depends: libldap-2.4.2 (>=2,4,7) but it is not installable PreDepends: dpkg (>=1.14.12ubuntu3) but 1.14.5ubuntu16 is to be installed". What gives? | 00:27 |
| ubuntu | xD | 00:27 |

| doorknob60 | tayfun: go into the animations options and look for "Close Animation" | 00:27 |

| Bader | I erased menu.lst from grub with a new version while I updated from gutsy to hardy, and now sound doesn't work since it relies on an optin in gruba | 00:28 |
| doorknob60 | tayfun: is something wrong with your keyboard? | 00:28 |
| ubuntu | already tryed reinstalling grub but still the same | 00:28 |
| tayfun | i guess yes | 00:28 |
| ubuntu | im on live right now | 00:28 |

| sadasdad | its not working here.. maybe something else can be done to it.. I'll check on | 00:38 |
| doorknob60 | dpince: as far as i know, no, because i think hardware acceleration simply doesnt work in loinux flash for soom reason | 00:38 |
| magic_ninja | frank__, necessita sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx para nvidia y sudo apt-get install fglrx-glx para ati | 00:39 |
| dpince | doorknob60: Ok, so it's a common issue and not something I installed wrong? Because my GFX driver is working fine - games in WINE have no lag...but for some reason small flash games will lag pretty badly. | 00:39 |

| Threevenge | If I knew what that term meant I might agree :P . I'm a fairly big newb when it comes to this stuff. | 00:42 |

| doorknob60 | there wont be a 9.0, but yes | 00:43 |
| magic_ninja | bimbo, yes sudo apt-get upgrade-dist i believe | 00:43 |

| m-c | no one using bluetooth here, huh? hmm.. | 00:51 |
| Dr_Willis | wiz_works, theres a apt caching type server you just install, and point the other machines to it. - not a full mirror of the repos.. but it caches what any one machine installs. so other machine dont have to redownload it. Good for updates | 00:51 |
| wiz_works | jordan_cbr: I'm looking for a solution based on apt-mirror whereby an existing machine can update from it, or a new install can be done from it. | 00:52 |

| Zaiden | Is there a command or something that'll uninstall directx 9? | 01:22 |
| Dr_Willis | Zaiden, i recall specific tools for Windows - that could uninstall DX9.. but err.. this is a Linux channel. :) | 01:22 |
| MrPocknix | how do i disable GL desktop and enable compiz again? | 01:23 |
| JebJoya3 | propagandhi: and, apparrently i'm an idiot again | 01:24 |
| Zaiden | Dr_Willis: I used a guide to install directx 9 in wine to see if it would fix a problem, but sadly it didn't, so now I'm wondering why my other applications won't run like they did before : / | 01:24 |
| propagandhi | lol, how so? | 01:24 |

| JebJoya3 | propagandhi: yeah, apart from the fact that it doesn't work :) | 01:25 |
| propagandhi | JebJoya3: ok, but u did not install those drivers u downloaded did u? | 01:26 |
| Dr_Willis | Zaiden, i would have to say it may be time to start over with a new .wine directory. last i tried somthing similer. it iddent work too good. the Wine Channel may have better suggestions | 01:26 |
| JebJoya3 | propagandhi: nope - it claims they're already installed in this kernel | 01:26 |

| JebJoya4 | propagandhi: yes, it is | 02:03 |
| propagandhi | Healthy: it is not specifically off topic | 02:03 |

| kimbrel | Rotonen: put it on a paste site along with relevant sections of your grub.conf/menu.lst | 02:24 |

| jumpnmustang | I know ubuntu has the driver built in 8.04 | 02:58 |
| doorknob60 | those usually work with tweaking | 02:58 |
| IndyGunFreak | jumpnmustang: yes it does.. | 02:58 |
| jumpnmustang | The problem is I don't know if it auto configures it.:-) | 02:58 |
| doorknob60 | the built in one never works good for me, ndiswrapper is the way to go | 02:58 |

| bazhang | !xmms | Drizzt321 compile it yourself | 03:00 |
| ubottu | Drizzt321 compile it yourself: For the reason why xmms is no longer in the hardy repositories see: http://bugs.debian.org/461309 . Consider using audacious instead. | 03:00 |
| jumpnmustang | I could yes.. | 03:00 |
| === Guest67259 is now known as max | ||

| IndyGunFreak | jumpnmustang: yes | 03:00 |

| bazhang | kholerabbi, how much ram? | 03:51 |
| nanothief | Matthew: do you have problems in other audio players, like amarok? | 03:51 |
| tux666 | if no, your kernel module not loading right, which would explain bad performance | 03:51 |
| kholerabbi | bazhang 512 | 03:52 |
| kholerabbi | bazhang it's not actually slow.. it just freezes a lot. | 03:52 |
| Matthew | haven't tried amarok, nanothief, I just wanted to see if there was a known fix for rhythmbox first. There shouldn't be problems because it's the default player for my OS. | 03:52 |
| bazhang | kholerabbi, running a lot of extensions in FF or multiple tabs? | 03:52 |
| kholerabbi | bazhang: I can't get through the installation because the partition editor just doesn't load or doesn't populate. and no, nothing else is running. | 03:53 |
| nanothief | Matthew, it just would eliminate possible causes if we knew if the problem did/didn't also occur in another player | 03:53 |
| Jack_Sparrow | EagleG33k Any partition resize, format or move will change the uuid and cause it to not boot without fixing fstab at a minimum | 03:53 |
| bazhang | kholerabbi, ah the livecd; perhaps the alt cd would do in that case, or even the minimal iso (9MB) installer | 03:54 |
| xbj9000 | you can fix fstab by replacing the UUID with the simpler /dev/hda type location | 03:54 |
| Matthew | OK, nanothief, fair enough. I'll try out amarok for a bit. Thanks! | 03:54 |
| xbj9000 | anyone used gfloppy? it won't start for me | 03:54 |

| Jack_Sparrow | !ssh | 04:20 |
| ubottu | SSH is the Secure SHell protocol. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SSHHowto for usage. Putty is a nice SSH client for Windows; it can be found at http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/ | 04:20 |
| RichardBronosky | Jack_Sparrow: yes | 04:20 |
| wolfwalker | Right. I'm in a settings menu and the page is too big for an 800x600 screen, but it won't let me change the resolution to anything larger. | 04:21 |
| RichardBronosky | I've told him to rm /etc/hosts.deny | 04:21 |

| DarkAudit | trying to fix issues with Amarok displaying tag info led me to a taglib bug in 1.4.8 that was fixed in 1.5. No sign of 1.5 in any ubuntu repos, Intrepid included. I eventually had to get it from Debian Lenny. Will the new version make it officially into Hardy, or is it a backports issue? | 04:21 |
| xbj9000 | Hyuukai I don't understand | 04:21 |
| bastid_raZor | RichardBronosky; is he behind a router? if so you'll need to port forward port 23 | 04:21 |
| RichardBronosky | and echo 'sshd sshd1 sshd2 : ALL : ALLOW'>>/etc/hosts.allow | 04:21 |
| RichardBronosky | 23? | 04:22 |
| RichardBronosky | does ubunut not use 22? | 04:22 |
| RichardBronosky | this is all within the same network. | 04:22 |
| RichardBronosky | not router, just a switch. | 04:22 |
| bigmack83 | sorry but im new, trying to move some files to another (drag and drop) it tells me i dont have the permissions. do i have to do this by command line or is there a way i can do it like this? | 04:22 |
| Hyuukai | I am wanting to change my splash screen, i got startup manager through synaptic, loaded it up and found the splash screen i want.so i then chose this splash screen and closed startup manager then i shut down my pc, restarted it and instead of the splash screen i want i just get it reading through all the text of loading drivers and stuff instead | 04:22 |

| mjbrooks | jaivikram, that's my card what is the issue? | 06:48 |

| music`freak | followed | 06:49 |
| music`freak | K let me try rebotting & editing the host file | 06:49 |

| qwexer | hello all, I'll get to the point. I have set up a comp with Ubuntu for my girlfriend, she doesn't not have internet and I'm tired up lugging the comp to my house for updates and such..first thing, I want to play mp3's, I dl the codecs, but come up with an error of C can not create exacutables, can I dl that tarball or what? | 06:49 |
| music`freak | thanks for the assistance zvacet i'll be back if the issue persists | 06:49 |
| foool | tried to put ubuntu on new hd - won't - desktop - error I/O and with alternate can't mount CD - lots on internet same prob - no solution | 06:49 |
| zvacet | music`freak :tell me if it works | 06:49 |
| mjbrooks | onats, then go 10GB and be selective in what you install | 06:50 |
| xbj9000 | foool sounds like a bad CD drive | 06:50 |
| mjbrooks | onats, the LiveCD is a 700MB cd after all | 06:50 |
| xbj9000 | or bad burn | 06:50 |
| foool | burnt 3 cd's | 06:51 |
| onats | mjbrooks, 10GB for /, 2GB for swap, and the rest (4GB) for /home? | 06:51 |
| mjbrooks | foool, did you burn it in TAO mode? | 06:51 |
| foool | dunno | 06:51 |
| zvacet | foool : did you https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowToMD5SUM | 06:52 |
| mjbrooks | onats, with that little of space, I'd just go 2GB for swap and throw everything else on / it's the most flexible for your situation and all you'd lose is the ability to do a clean install without having to backup first | 06:52 |
| zvacet | foool : and after burn did you check disc integrity | 06:52 |
| troxor | !uuid | 06:52 |

| zvacet | rainwalker : do you want to install kubuntu desktop or what | 06:53 |
| foool | just followedI' ll heck out evrything again | 06:54 |
| onats | mjbrooks, what about if i put /home in a different physical drive? that's possible right? | 06:54 |
| mjbrooks | onats, yes it is | 06:54 |
| zvacet | rainwalker : ubuntu-desktop is metapackage so you don´t have to worry | 06:55 |

| Dbproguy | gnome is kinda confusing when coming from windows | 06:59 |
| Dbproguy | I haven't tried kde, but x is worse than gnome | 06:59 |
| Starnestommy | qwexer: if you have internet access, the easiest way is sudo apt-get install build-essential | 07:00 |
| Flannel | Dbproguy: X isn't comparable to gnome, they're separate things. Gnome is built upon X (so is KDE, et al) | 07:00 |

| legend2440 | sandipg_: what does the error msg say? | 08:05 |
| ksbalaji | thanks Vedestin | 08:05 |
| eviltim | Help!when the install cd gets to the grub part,it crashes! I think its because my comp has the vista loader and grub cant install | 08:05 |
| DIFH-iceroot | zeker: sorry i am just using the hardware-detection tool in ubuntu 8.04 for installing my nvidia-card | 08:06 |
| sandipg_ | it says: NAutilus cant be used now due to an unexpected error from bonobo when attempting to register the file manager view server | 08:06 |
| zeker | difh-iceroot, can't I uninstall the driver and then use the hardware-detection tool? Where is it located? | 08:06 |
| ksbalaji | which is better -KSirc or Xchat? | 08:06 |
| Gabi | hy | 08:07 |
| sandipg_ | then another error pops up saying the panel encountered a fatal error (error code: 3)...could not register with the bonobo activation server | 08:07 |
| DIFH-iceroot | ksbalaji: xchat is nice but i prefer irssi (shell) | 08:07 |
| eviltim | plz? | 08:07 |
| issyl0 | DIFH-iceroot, I agree with you there. | 08:08 |
| devastator82 | sandipg_: try sudo apt-get install --reinstall libbonobo2-common --force-yes | 08:08 |
| DIFH-iceroot | ksbalaji: irssi + screen = irc client + bnc :) | 08:08 |
| alioraibi | Hey | 08:09 |
| eviltim | anyone? | 08:09 |
| ksbalaji | then I shall uninstall KSirc and install irssi. You are right. I am not able to login properly with KSirc. freenode does not regognize me as a registered user. | 08:09 |

| alliecat | after 22 mounts | 08:25 |
| kshah | maybe you have a problem with the disk :) ? | 08:25 |
| Flannel | BM-Solid: "timeout" in your menu.lst is how to set time. As for default, change "default" parameter to "saved" and then after your windows entry make a new line with "savedefault" on it. Next time you boot, choose widnows, and it'll be default after that | 08:25 |
| === FRiEd|BnC is now known as FriedCPU | ||
| alliecat | since the last time it checked, i have used gparted to move partitions around and create a windows partition on a drive that was previously solely dedicated to ubuntu | 08:25 |
| devastator82 | BM-Solid: sudo apt-get install startupmanager | 08:26 |
| ksbalaji | I uninstalled KSirc and installed ircssi. When I give command ircssi terminal, nothing happens -only command not found. Helo! | 08:26 |
| alliecat | i use neogrub bootloader to dual boot with windows vista | 08:26 |
| Flannel | ksbalaji: it's 'irssi' | 08:26 |
| dangergrrl | has anyone else noticed the gnome libraries are leaking memory on hardy? | 08:26 |
| ksbalaji | Oh!ok thanis Flannel ! | 08:27 |
| chalcedony | that's new to me | 08:27 |
| alliecat | anyway, now when it tries to check the disk upon loading, it has no progress. this has only happened since i have moved partitions and changed the way the system boots. | 08:27 |
| mind_up_ | =] | 08:27 |
| Vedestin | i got up this morning and there was memory all over my floor | 08:27 |
| chalcedony | dangergrrl: explain more? | 08:27 |
| alliecat | so i can't get into my ubuntu partition at all, and it's a little offputting because that's what i primarily use. | 08:27 |
| dangergrrl | 6077 dangergr 20 0 293m 25m 13m S 0 5.2 0:01.58 gnome-panel | 08:28 |
| dangergrrl | like that, thatś fresh | 08:28 |
| dangergrrl | tomorrow the virt will be over 500m | 08:28 |
| dangergrrl | and it keeps growing | 08:28 |
| AutumnCat | alliecat: since you changed the partitons of the disk, the uuid of the partitions may be changed | 08:28 |
| Starnestommy | dangergrrl: they leak on gutsy too, just not as badly | 08:28 |
| dangergrrl | the panel shouldn be growing in memory size long term | 08:28 |
| alliecat | i'm guessing that's the case AutumnCat, but the problem now is that i don't know what to do about it | 08:29 |
| dangergrrl | i believe itś a problem thatś fixed in debian/sid | 08:29 |
| AutumnCat | alliecat: check /etc/fstab and make sure the uuid match the ones listed in /dev/disk/by-uuid/ | 08:29 |
| alliecat | yeah, but how do i do that? | 08:29 |
| MannyTheMolecule | Nice accentuated S's :)) | 08:30 |
| dangergrrl | i ran that on my own machine and it had the same leakage 6-9 mos ago and it got much better | 08:30 |
| alliecat | i can't even boot into ubuntu right now | 08:30 |
| alliecat | because the disk check is stalling the boot | 08:30 |
| dangergrrl | oh | 08:30 |
| AutumnCat | alliecat: use a livecd :) | 08:30 |
| dangergrrl | ¡i´m using the usintl keymap and am not used to it! | 08:31 |

| glitsj16 | alliecat: unfamiliar with neogrub, but have you tried installing grub ? | 08:57 |
| garrett__ | InvisiblePinkUni: if so, you probably just have a bjroked sudoers file | 08:57 |
| ace_suares | alliecat: try supergrubdisk | 08:58 |
| garrett__ | InvisiblePinkUni: and i'm sure there's an ubuntu facilitiy for managing that | 08:58 |
| bullgard4 | balaji: I can see all past IRC messages in Irssi since its start using my PageUp key. Why don't you use the PagUp key? | 08:58 |
| InvisiblePinkUni | garrett__: It says Authentication failure. | 08:58 |
| alliecat | well, this isn't really my issue, ubuntu would still boot up until now | 08:58 |
| garrett__ | InvisiblePinkUni: 'su root' and you type in your root password and you get an authentication failure | 08:58 |
| alliecat | now it won't boot because it tries to force a disk check on the NTFS partition which obviously doesn't work | 08:58 |

| InvisiblePinkUni | garrett__: Is there a "root password" | 09:01 |
| InvisiblePinkUni | ace_suares: yes, it says authentication failure. | 09:01 |
| garrett__ | InvisiblePinkUni: 'su' allows you to switch to another user, whereas 'sudo' let's you run a program as another user provided your user is into the sudoers file. | 09:01 |
| ace_suares | InvisiblePinkUni: no there is no root password that is why su root dont work. | 09:01 |
| garrett__ | InvisiblePinkUni: there is most definietly a root passowrd. | 09:01 |

| InvisiblePinkUni | ace_suares: my normal user had sudo, now he doesn't | 09:02 |
| ace_suares | InvisiblePinkUni: are you sure this normal user's password is correct ? | 09:02 |

| Kartagis | as described on http://www.ubuntugeek.com/atheros-5007eg-with-madwifi-on-i386-platform.html. any ideas why? | 09:54 |
| Bodsda | kahrytan, why didnt you just install the kde4 desktop, then you can switch between the two at the login screen | 09:54 |
| kahrytan | Bodsda, I guess I obviously have to update grub in ubuntu each kernel update. | 09:54 |

| _empemp_ | Hi. I am having trouble to get my printer to work correctly. It is running on a ubuntu 8.04 computer and sharing is enabled.

Also when i try to verify the printer connection i got "printer is not accessible". Anyone familiar with this behaviour? | 10:01 |
| Bodsda | kahrytan, yes, you dont know how to add a new option to menu.lst | 10:01 |
| kahrytan | Bodsda, I want to add a extra line in grub menu (not menu.lst) that doesnt refer to a kernel or os. | 10:01 |

| kahrytan | Bodsda, menu.lst IS THE CONFIG. not the grub menu | 10:02 |
| kahrytan | Bodsda, Grub menu is what you see a boot. | 10:03 |
| Bodsda | kahrytan, your not hearing me -- IT IS THE SAME THING!!! just not all of menu.lst is shown | 10:03 |
| elkbuntu | please stop yelling. | 10:03 |
| kahrytan | Bodsda, welcome to ignore. goodbye | 10:03 |
| Bodsda | kahrytan, omg,.,. just please try to understand,.,. the things at the bottom of menu.lst are what the grub menu displays,.,.there is no other file that displays grub menu info | 10:04 |
| kahrytan | Does anyknoe how to add extra blank line to grub menu isng menu.lst config file? | 10:04 |

| McDangerous | you can probably add the blank line in any text editor if you sudo the edit first | 10:05 |
| Bodsda | elkbuntu, i know,.,. maybe i should just link him to a hefty grub page | 10:05 |
| _empemp_ | anyone? | 10:05 |
| elkbuntu | Bodsda, since he alleges he placed you on ignore, he wouldnt see the link to the man page that would confirm your instructions. | 10:05 |
| kahrytan | Bodsda, And you obviously DONT GET IT. I need to add freakin blank line to grub menu NOT MENU.LST config | 10:06 |
| ronin1234 | thats where the grub menu options come from mate | 10:06 |
| McDangerous | lol | 10:06 |

| Bodsda | kahrytan, the return key does quite well for adding blank lines | 10:07 |

| lat | ne2k___, how do I get that file? | 10:07 |
| elkbuntu | McDangerous, idle chatter belongs in #ubuntu-offtopic | 10:08 |
| kahrytan | ronin1234, Bodsda just doesnt understand that any idiot can add blank line to menu.lst. But how do you add to grub menu? | 10:08 |
| ronin1234 | yeah but no idea if it'll actually create a break more likely it would be parsed as whitespace and ignored | 10:08 |
| elkbuntu | kahrytan, the instructions under the grub menu when you boot up tells you how to edit the grub menu from a grub editor. | 10:08 |
| tinko | go.pcripe.net:41444 | 10:08 |
| elkbuntu | kahrytan, but, doing that is only ever temporary until the next restart | 10:09 |
| resskin | How long does it take for program updates to get to the repositories? I'm thinking especially of Opera. | 10:09 |
| McDangerous | I suppose you could use the 255th ASCII character as a blank to hold the line instead of just a carriage return? | 10:09 |

| ronin1234 | can you make transmittion watch a dir and auto add torrents | 10:17 |
| mehehool | hi | 10:17 |
| dxdemetriou | GibbaTheHutt, I understood.. it uses 1,2GB for cache. I saw in system monitor the 700MB. so the cache is counted also before starting using the swap? | 10:17 |
| mehehool | I have a small problem | 10:18 |
| Bodsda | ronin1234, i believe it remembers what folder you put your last torrent in and starts there each time, but you always have to specify iirc | 10:18 |

| mehehool | my old linux is still there but i cant get to it | 10:19 |
| doktoreas | Bodsda: that was the real question | 10:19 |

| slowlearner | joaopinto: no good | 10:37 |
| eviltim | yes | 10:38 |

| eviltim | is my computer allergic to grub?! | 10:39 |
| kahrytan | ikonia, thats all you get. take or leave. it | 10:39 |

| ikonia | Hobbsee: I was going to run through that with him | 10:45 |
| kahrytan | Hobbsee, how so? | 10:46 |
| Bodsda | mehehool, right ok,.,. what was that link i gave you? | 10:46 |
| joaopinto | user_, please try #winehq | 10:46 |
| Hobbsee | kahrytan: because it gives no way to check whether the partition that corresponds to that uuid even exists. | 10:46 |
| ikonia | Hobbsee: as /boot will probably be off his root, and he'll have two /boots, hence why I needed/wanted to check | 10:46 |
| Hobbsee | ikonia: most people don't do a separte /boot though | 10:46 |
| ikonia | Hobbsee: exactly | 10:46 |
| mib | i tried consult #alsa but it seems not helpful other than refer back to #ubuntu | 10:46 |
| ikonia | Hobbsee: so his root is critical | 10:46 |
| ikonia | Hobbsee: hence the check | 10:46 |
| Bodsda | kahrytan, if i give you one command that will help everyone immensely, will you run it (its not mallicous i promise) | 10:46 |
| kahrytan | Hobbsee, It's justmissing uuid. Rest are defaults from default ubuntu install. | 10:46 |
| Hobbsee | kahrytan: is the UUID that you have listed in the ubuntu partition the correct one based on ls -la /dev/disk-by/uuid ? | 10:47 |
| kahrytan | Hobbsee, yes. i double checked that | 10:47 |
| Bodsda | Hobbsee, sudo blkid is easier to understand | 10:47 |
| Hobbsee | kahrytan: is the root drive number correct? | 10:47 |
| ikonia | kahrytan: your "/whois kahrytan" gives out better information about exploiting you than a usless uuid | 10:47 |
| ikonia | kahrytan: your paranoid about security yet giving your ip address away in a public chat room with 1000+ users | 10:47 |

| ikonia | Pi^2: what type of device is it | 10:48 |
| jaivikram | I have a problem getting Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless 3945ABG Network Connection work......here is the http://paste.ubuntu.com/20571/ | 10:48 |
| kahrytan | Hobbsee, you mean root 0.3? | 10:48 |
| Pi^2 | ikonia: it's a WD 500GB mybook (usb2.0 external hdd) | 10:48 |
| ikonia | Hobbsee: the two /boot partitions may have different device.maps | 10:49 |
| kahrytan | Hobbsee, It is the third partition on the hdd. First is swap, 2nd is Ubuntu, third is Kubuntu. | 10:49 |
| ikonia | kahrytan: then it should be hd0,2 | 10:49 |
| ikonia | kahrytan: not 4 | 10:49 |
| Hobbsee | kahrytan: have you taken into account the fact that the hard drives are numbered from 0, not 1? | 10:49 |
| ikonia | not 3 | 10:49 |
| ikonia | Pi^2: how many other disks are in the system ? | 10:49 |
| mehehool | bodsda im not sure i lost it but it was about linux and windows and i was confused just reading it plus it was a conversation there were no answers | 10:49 |
| Pi^2 | ikonia: one internal | 10:49 |
| vahid_ | i can't show divx with subtitle !!!! | 10:50 |
| ikonia | Pi^2: so could you do an "ls- la /dev/sdb" for me please | 10:50 |

| mib | anyone?> | 10:50 |
| Pi^2 | though it loaded it /dev/sdb1 earlier | 10:50 |
| jaivikram | @ikonia: I have a problem getting Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless 3945ABG Network Connection work......here is the dmesg........http://paste.ubuntu.com/20571/...help? | 10:50 |
| Hobbsee | kahrytan: so, does it work with the fixed root number? | 10:50 |
| Bodsda | mehehool, tried this? -- http://www.linuxtopia.org/online_books/linux_beginner_books/unofficial_ubuntu_starter_guide/index_132.html | 10:50 |
| ikonia | Pi^2: so it did load something earlier | 10:51 |
| kahrytan | Hobbsee, let me check. | 10:51 |
| Pi^2 | ikonia: i could access the harddrive earlier, yes :) | 10:51 |
| user__ | i need to install VC++ Framework in wine .. anyone know what i should download from microsoft? | 10:51 |
| ikonia | Pi^2: thats quite odd, could you paste the output of "lsusb" into a pastebin please. | 10:51 |
| Slart_ | user__: sounds like visual C++.. but you really should ask someone using windows.. not ubuntu-users | 10:51 |
| Bodsda | ikonia, have you got the disk uuids and menu.lst and fdsik from him yet? | 10:52 |
| ikonia | Pi^2: obviouslt the device is detected as it shows up | 10:52 |
| Hobbsee | jaivikram: do you have linux-ubuntu-modules-2.6.24-19-generic (or whatever your kernel type is) installed? | 10:52 |
| ikonia | Bodsda: nope, I'm ignoring the issue now as I've not got all the info, for a 2 minute fix, I can't pull teeth | 10:52 |
| Hobbsee | jaivikram: if not, install it, come back. also ntoe that the light doesn't work on hardy. | 10:52 |
| fabio | ughhhhhhhhhhh | 10:52 |
| user__ | Slart_ thanks :) | 10:52 |
| Slart_ | user__: you're welcome | 10:53 |
| Bodsda | ikonia, i have a command to give him that will give you all the info you need in 3 pastebinit links,.,. but he prob wont accept it from me | 10:53 |
| Pi^2 | ikonia: http://paste.ubuntu.com/20575/ | 10:53 |
| ikonia | Bodsda: I could get the info, it's not a problem if he thinks it's a security risk, I'm not going to push for it any more | 10:53 |
| ikonia | Pi^2: I don't think that is your drive | 10:53 |
| ikonia | Pi^2: is this a laptop ? | 10:54 |
| Pi^2 | ikonia: yup | 10:54 |
| ikonia | Pi^2: yes, for some reason that disk is not showing up at all | 10:54 |
| simon30 | hi | 10:54 |
| Bodsda | ikonia, ok dude, il see if Hobbsee needs it -- Hobbsee mind if i pm you? | 10:54 |
| Hobbsee | Bodsda: go ahead | 10:54 |
| ikonia | Bodsda: I'm sure she knows how to use blkid | 10:54 |
| Pi^2 | ikonia: if it makes any difference, its an NTFS volume and it's encyrpted with TrueCrypt | 10:54 |
| Hobbsee | ikonia: i've never used it actually. haven't really needed to | 10:54 |
| ikonia | Pi^2: Hmmmmm that could make a difference to it not mounting, but not showing up in lsusb shouldn't | 10:55 |
| ikonia | Hobbsee: you surpirse me | 10:55 |
| Pi^2 | ikonia: i had it mounted as read only earlier with TC, and i could use it, however, after unconnecting it and reconnecting it later on in the day, it does not show up as a device | 10:55 |
| Hobbsee | ikonia: i just use the straight ls -la /dev/disk-by/uuid/ | 10:55 |
| ikonia | Hobbsee: all works the same | 10:55 |
| Hobbsee | yeah | 10:55 |
| ikonia | Pi^2: the trucrypt stuff could explain issues mounting it, but your not even getting that far, that fact that lsusb can't see it is a conern | 10:56 |
| ikonia | concern | 10:56 |
| Pi^2 | ikonia: indeed | 10:56 |

| ikonia | Pi^2: this is a long shot, but could you try booting from that, tailing the messages file, and then plugging it in, seeing if it "detects" it any differeent, your hal/dbus system could be borked on your install (doubtful - but a long shot) | 10:57 |
| pluffsy | hi | 10:57 |
| ikonia | Pi^2: do you have any other usb devices also, another drive, an pen, a fan etc | 10:57 |

| mannyz | ikonia: I should use some other program? | 10:58 |
| Bodsda | mehehool, hhmmm,.,. you mean you cant see the buttons on the top right corner? | 10:58 |

| jonaskoe1ker | How can I make NetworkManager associate with my ap and do dhcp on boot? | 11:23 |
| jonaskoe1ker | or, alternatively, how can I make wpa_supplicant poke me when it associates and reassociates? | 11:24 |
| dougsko | jonaskoe1ker: wpa_supplicant allows for pre-up/post-down scripts i believe | 11:25 |
| dougsko | jonaskoe1ker: i dont know about NetworkManager, but you can set up that other stuff right in /etc/network/interfaces | 11:25 |

| jonaskoe1ker | dougsko: the thing I'm concerned about is when I move my laptop from home to university, the interface doesn't go down, so no hooks will get run | 11:26 |

| jzitt | There are lots of pages out there that claim to give information. and they contradict each pther and make unstated assumptions. | 11:43 |
| kelvin-p | dougsko: what's with update-rc.d? would that get rid of the local.d and continue the boot? | 11:43 |
| perplexed | brb | 11:44 |
| perplexed | going to try | 11:44 |
| dougsko | kelvin-p: yeah, itll disable the script in /etc/init.d from running on boot up | 11:44 |
| dougsko | 'update-rc.d script defaults' gets it going again | 11:44 |
| legend2440 | Kartagis: did you disable atheros like the instructions said? and then run the commands again? | 11:44 |
| jzitt | I follow instructions and run scripts and they break each other and say "now everything works" when it doesn't, and then the only source of support is hoping that someone who knows something happens to be in a chat room. | 11:44 |
| dougsko | jzitt: you shouldnt just blindly follow instructions without trying to understand what youre doing first | 11:45 |
| dougsko | thats what man pages and google are for | 11:45 |
| kiasanth | so no-one knows? | 11:46 |
| cbx33 | hey people | 11:46 |
| AmalgamX | yo don't mean to but in but is this the ubuntu forums irc? my first time using irc so yeah.....? | 11:46 |
| Kartagis | legend2440: I don't have Restricted Drivers Manager | 11:46 |
| cbx33 | does oss work by default in hardy? | 11:46 |
| avis- | jzitt, if your running scripts that other people provide for you, you ought to trust them very well | 11:46 |
| cbx33 | in an upgrade from gutsy? | 11:46 |
| dlozarie | dougsko, I tried googling around with "ubuntu linux check if network-applet is running" and nothing relevant turned up. jzitt, can you tell me what keywords you used in your search? | 11:46 |
| cbx33 | I'm trying to use sound tracker | 11:46 |
| jzitt | Yeah, yeah, and then trying to understand them you go down another level and think you understand them, then you discover that they're not using terms consistently and think you understand things already that you don't. | 11:46 |
| cbx33 | and I'm not sure if I just don't know how to use it | 11:46 |
| Slart_ | AmalgamX: this is the official irc-channel for ubuntu, yes | 11:47 |
| cbx33 | or if the sound output just isn't working | 11:47 |
| AmalgamX | awesome! | 11:47 |
| AmalgamX | so what do you guys do round here anyway? | 11:47 |
| dlozarie | <AmalgamX>, it is, isn't it? | 11:47 |
| AmalgamX | just help each other solve computer problems? | 11:47 |
| jzitt | You know, at this point I can't even tell *if* they're working. I may have it set up and just not understand it. | 11:47 |
| kora | everytime i try to use "iwconfig wlan0 mode ad-hoc" hardy tells me the device is busy, any1 knows how i can disable and afterwards reenable the ubuntu wlan management? | 11:47 |
| avis- | jzitt, persistance in anything is the key to becoming more than what we are. if you give up you wont ever learn, got to study and learn | 11:47 |
| Slart_ | jzitt: not grasping the wifi stuff isn't weird in any way.. I'm just happy it worked out of the box on my laptop.. judging by the amount of questions in here about wifi I think I'm part of a minority | 11:48 |
| legend2440 | Kartagis: anything about atheros in system>Administration>Hardware Drivers? | 11:48 |
| jzitt | avis-: I've been doing this for several decades. Persistence isn;t the problem | 11:48 |
| dougsko | dlozarie: you can check to see if any program is running with the "ps" command. try this: ps auxww |grep applet | 11:48 |
| dlozarie | jzitt, what exact problem are you encountering again? | 11:49 |
| dougsko | dlozarie: 'pgrep' is also very useful for checking if certain things are running | 11:49 |
| andreas__ | hi | 11:49 |
| jzitt | avis-: Do you remember the little blue book from Bell Labs announcing UNIX? I've been using this stuff since just after it came out. | 11:49 |
| andreas__ | hmm | 11:50 |
| andreas__ | how can i install cs3 under linux? | 11:50 |
| avis- | whatever you say jzitt you just sound very frustrated. if your scripts are breaking do something about it. we can say 'its so awful' all day long but that doesn't accomplish much | 11:50 |
| kora | andreas__: adobe cs3? | 11:50 |
| andreas__ | yes | 11:50 |
| Slart_ | andreas__: you could try wine.. check appdb.winehq.org | 11:51 |
| Slart_ | andreas__: not sure what kind of rating it's got under wine.. there is a searchbox at that page | 11:51 |
| AmalgamX | CS3 in linux hey...... | 11:51 |
| andreas__ | yes ... but i tried this.... and i does not run | 11:51 |
| jzitt | dlozarie: I've installed Hardy, with the RiceeeTweak script and all appropriate updates, on my Eee. I think I have the gnome network applet running, but it isn't seeming to see the available Wifi, and the interface doesn't seem to look much like the pages that I see about it. | 11:51 |
| andreas__ | when i is installd id be platinium... | 11:52 |
| Slart_ | andreas__: then it doesn't work.. unless you want to try cedega | 11:52 |
| tyler | can someone help me adding a raid partition to fstab | 11:52 |
| AmalgamX | have they even been able to get photoshop to run under wine? | 11:52 |
| andreas__ | cedega or crossover? xD | 11:52 |
| dougsko | andreas__: there's also something called Cedega that can run window games | 11:52 |
| dlozarie | jzitt, the wifi isn't secured with a WEP key, is it? | 11:52 |
| kora | andreas__: you could check if crossover office can do the job, but imho if wine cant do ti,.... | 11:52 |
| Kartagis | legend2440: I disabled both atheros entries using Hardware Drivers, issued the command modprobe wlan_scan_sta and got the same error | 11:52 |
| jzitt | I know the Wifi networks are there, since the Windows box I'll typing at you from sees it. | 11:52 |
| jzitt | dlozarie: Nope, it's open. | 11:52 |
| andreas__ | crossover can't run the installtion too | 11:52 |
| dougsko | jzitt: are you using the drivers that came in the RestrictedModules package? | 11:53 |
| === Bodsda is now known as Bodsda|AFK | ||
| tyler | can someone help me adding a raid partition to fstab | 11:53 |
| jzitt | dougsko: Uh, how would I know? I know the script installed some stuff it referred to as "madwifi" | 11:53 |
| dlozarie | jzitt: I see. click on that small internet connection indicator icon near your system clock and see if any wifi networks are listed. | 11:53 |
| sjefskua | Hi all :) Anyone here who uses virtualbox to "run" windows on ubuntu? | 11:54 |
| dougsko | jzitt: well i have no idea what script you mean, but i would suggest just reinstalling the madwifi drivers from source. thats what i ended up doing and it everything works fine now | 11:54 |
| kelvin-p | perplexed: were you able to get it working with "update -rc.d -f rc.local remove?" because i tried it i'm still getting the same message. | 11:54 |
| AutumnCa1 | sjefskua: ? | 11:54 |
| AutumnCa1 | sjefskua: what's the problem? | 11:54 |
| kora | can i connect to a open ad-hoc network and get the ip via dhcp with the wlan tool under hardy? it seems i cannot find the option "open" or "no encryption" when i try to connect to an ad-hoc network using the nm-applet preinstalled with hardy. | 11:54 |
| jzitt | dlozarie: Umm, is that the one that looks like a couple of black terminals with a red triangle with an exclamation point in from of them? | 11:54 |
| dougsko | kelvin-p: is your system hanging on rc.local too? | 11:54 |
| Slart_ | jzitt: this is what it would look like on regular ubuntu http://kirsten.urbanzone.com/blog/uploads/misc/ubuntu_network_manager.png | 11:55 |
| tyler | can someone help me adding a raid partition to fstab | 11:55 |
| kelvin-p | dougsko: yeah | 11:55 |
| AutumnCa1 | sjefskua: I used vbox before, but kvm now. | 11:55 |
| Slart_ | jzitt: and the network manager is usually two computers, one behind the other | 11:55 |
| dougsko | tyler: http://www.linuxhomenetworking.com/wiki/index.php/Quick_HOWTO_:_Ch26_:_Linux_Software_RAID | 11:55 |
| jzitt | dougsko: The script appeared to do that, installing from source. | 11:55 |
| === AutumnCa1 is now known as AutumnCat | ||
| sjefskua | AutumnCal: no problem so far :P i just wondered if someone uses it and can recommend it.. | 11:55 |
| dlozarie | uhm, I'm not quite sure how they look like. been a long time since I was without an internet connection. but yes that screenshot <slart> provided can show you. | 11:55 |
| dougsko | jzitt: well, if you do it yourself, youll know exactly what's going on | 11:55 |
| andash | sjefskua: yeah its great, especially the seamless mode | 11:56 |
| dougsko | kelvin-p: thats weird. id be curious to see what itd do if you just moved rc.local to your home dir or something | 11:56 |
| ukubuntu | Slart_: sorry did not see a reply as connction dropped alls well now, thx again | 11:56 |
| jzitt | dougsko: In what sense would I know better than if I look at the script doing it, considering that much of what happens is utterly cryptic? | 11:56 |
| kora | Slart_: did you ever do an unencrypted ad-hoc connection with that applet? | 11:56 |
| sjefskua | andash: soo i should try it out? | 11:56 |
| andash | sjefskua: why not? =) | 11:57 |
| Slart_ | kora: hmm.. I don't think so, no | 11:57 |
| mannyz | What is the best msn client? | 11:57 |
| andash | mannyz: bitlbee! | 11:57 |
| AmalgamX | if i try to join another channel will i be logged out of this one? | 11:57 |
| andash | AmalgamX: no | 11:57 |
| sjefskua | andash: ok.. ;) | 11:57 |
| kora | mannyz: now youre breaking up a fight *ggg* | 11:57 |
| AmalgamX | aight sweet | 11:57 |
| jzitt | Slart_: OK, that's the icon. When I click on it, I see a greyed out "Wired Network" and "Manual COnfiguration" | 11:57 |
| mannyz | andash: hmm :D | 11:57 |
| mannyz | kora: omg :D | 11:57 |
| mannyz | Well I like pidgin | 11:58 |
| dougsko | jzitt: well i would at least have a better idea on whats going on. if you want help troubleshooting, saying that some random script installed kernal modules doesnt help anyone | 11:58 |
| dlozarie | jzitt, can you see a "connect to wireless connection" button? | 11:58 |
| tyler | dougsko: this doesnt help me...i just need help with the fstab file....the raid ex3 partition is already made | 11:58 |
| mannyz | but pidgin dosnt support webcams | 11:58 |
| Slart_ | jzitt: then your wifi stuff might not be recognized/setup properly | 11:58 |
| mannyz | aMSN does | 11:58 |
| AmalgamX | pidgin! | 11:58 |
| mannyz | but i hate the outlook of the shitty thing | 11:58 |
| jzitt | dlozarie: Not that I can see | 11:58 |
| persi | can any1 here help me with pidgin? trying to understand what does "disconnect reason is 4" mean | 11:58 |
| dlozarie | jzitt, I meant "connect to wireless network". | 11:58 |
| dlozarie | no sign? | 11:58 |
| kora | mannyz: i just use kopete since i like the look, even if im normally using xfce as deskop and not kde | 11:58 |
| dougsko | tyler: there's a section on that page titled, "Edit The /etc/fstab File" | 11:58 |
| andash | mannyz: i think you can compile aMSN with better fonts | 11:58 |
| jzitt | dlozarie: Nope, not on that menu | 11:58 |
| mannyz | andash hmm.. well i have to try ;) | 11:59 |
| Slart_ | jzitt: I don't know the mechanics behind it.. but when the network manager detects a wireless adapter you get the other stuff in there | 11:59 |
| mannyz | kora, i will try kopete now | 11:59 |
| hiptobecubic | persi, have you tried the great Googly Woogly? | 11:59 |
| dlozarie | jzitt, and there isn't any wireless network listed? | 11:59 |
| knightwise | why amsn ? pidgin works better | 11:59 |
| hiptobecubic | knightwise, not if you want to do anything other than text | 12:00 |
| persi | yep, similar kind of bug was "resolved" recently with latest version, but I have it (2.4.2) and it persist | 12:00 |
| persi | s | 12:00 |
| AmalgamX | Haha "googly woogly" | 12:00 |
| AmalgamX | thats awesome | 12:00 |
| mannyz | even i have gnome on ubuntu studio.. is it possible to change to KDE? | 12:00 |
| jzitt | dlozarie: When I click on "Manual Configuration", I do see "Wireless", "Wired", and "Point to Point" connections as possibilities, so I think it may be seeing the Wifi device | 12:00 |
| avis- | mannyz, sudo aptitude install kubuntu-desktop | 12:00 |
| dougsko | jzitt: does modprob -l |grep ath show anything? | 12:00 |
| hiptobecubic | persi, did you find what the error actually means? that might help more | 12:00 |
| dlozarie | jzitt, yes that may well be the case. can you take a screenshot of the menu that appears when you click on the icon and upload it somewhere so we can take a look at it? | 12:01 |
| hiptobecubic | avis-, why aptitude and not apt-get? | 12:01 |
| Slart_ | hiptobecubic: aptitude used to be better at some things | 12:01 |
| persi | nobody in the pidgin channel has a clue, some guy said it might be related to proxy, but licq and kopete in the past worked smooth | 12:01 |
| mannyz | avis- is it possible to swtich between gnome and KDE then? | 12:02 |
| jzitt | dlozarie: err, I could upload it if I could get the machine online. | 12:02 |
| avis- | hiptobecubic, aptitude installs less extraneous stuff, apt-get installs stuff that is often left behind on removing or purging. aptitude also lets you choose from different solutionns | 12:02 |
| avis- | sure mannyz through gdm | 12:02 |
| hiptobecubic | persi, tthere's no documentation of it at all? | 12:03 |
| hiptobecubic | avis-, ok thanks. | 12:03 |
| jzitt | dougsko: It lists eight lines, each ending in .ko | 12:03 |
| mannyz | ;o | 12:03 |
| avis- | mannzy, thats the login screen, select kde instead of gnome, and either make that default, or just for that session | 12:03 |
| dlozarie | jzitt, no thumb drive available or anything? wait, so you're chatting on a Windows machine while trying to fix your Ubuntu machine? | 12:03 |
| tyler | dougsko: I get wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/dm-0, missing codepage or helper program | 12:03 |
| jzitt | dlozarie: right | 12:03 |
| mannyz | avis sounds good :o | 12:03 |
| tyler | dougsko: should i pastebin this for u? | 12:03 |
| persi | of the specific problem? nothing google could see, only bug reports of that "resolved" issue | 12:03 |
| mannyz | avis- umm.. I never used KDE.. i heard its more difficult to use but its more editable | 12:04 |
| dlozarie | jzitt, can you try clicking "manual configuration"? | 12:04 |
| hiptobecubic | i've come across an undeletable/unreadable file. what can i do about it? | 12:04 |
| hiptobecubic | even sudo is helpless with it | 12:04 |
| kelvin-p | dougsko: when i boot it from the install cd it just hangs on /etc/rc.local, it doesn't let me go in to the installation process. | 12:04 |
| Slart_ | hiptobecubic: huh? what monster of a file is that? | 12:04 |
| * i00nsu olas | 12:04 | |
| hiptobecubic | persi, no idea. has it always had this issue for you? | 12:04 |
| avis- | mannyz i've never liked it. alot of the rage these days is for kde4 which is in beta. i heard that was neat though buggy. you'd have to make some adjustments to try that out | 12:04 |
| kora | mannyz, if you want to stay with gnome, you can use nearly alle kde programs under gnome too, they just work normally, and kde is more easy easy to onfigure than gnome imo | 12:05 |
| jzitt | dlozarie: Yup, it brings up a "Network Settings" window with Wireless, Wired, and Point to point connection item | 12:05 |
| hiptobecubic | Slart_, it's in a trashcan on an old ntfs windows partition. it says there's an error entering or exiting the directory | 12:05 |
| persi | well I`m yet to celebrate my 1st week with linux so yes it had, well thank you for your time | 12:05 |
| hiptobecubic | can't even look in with ls | 12:05 |
| dlozarie | jzitt, hmm. try hitting the "wireless" option. | 12:05 |
| mannyz | thank you avis- and kora. I will stick on gnome :) | 12:05 |
| avis- | sure mannyz. good luck, enjoy | 12:06 |
| hiptobecubic | persi, sorry to hear you're having trouble right off the bat. at least IRC is working :D | 12:06 |
| dougsko | tyler: i dont really know anything about setting up raid, i can just google fast :) | 12:06 |
| persi | heh well yeah gotta entertain myself with that | 12:06 |
| Slart_ | hiptobecubic: ah.. ntfs.. the linux drivers are usable for day to day use.. but not when it comes to the weird cases.. do you dual boot? | 12:06 |
| mannyz | hey | 12:07 |
| jzitt | dlozarie: OK, it brings up a window with a lot of fields greyed out. Only "Enable roaming mode" (whatever that is) is showed as regular, and the checkbox next to it is checked. | 12:07 |
| dougsko | kelvin-p: so this is the live cd, not a real installation? | 12:07 |
| hiptobecubic | yeah should i just find it the slow bloated way? | 12:07 |
| mannyz | what is the best IRC client...? im using @Konversation | 12:07 |
| mannyz | but its annyoing when i see those -> (n=subcode@athedsl-43455.home.otenet.gr). | 12:07 |
| avis- | jzitt, if you click unlock from there you can edit the networking preferences. | 12:08 |
| Slart_ | hiptobecubic: I would just boot windows and do a disk check on that disk.. see if it finds anything worth fixing | 12:08 |
| kelvin-p | dougsko: it's the installation cd, i selected live installation | 12:08 |
| dlozarie | jzitt, hmmm. interesting. you're at the network settings window, right? | 12:08 |
| avis- | mannyz i love xchat. | 12:08 |
| hiptobecubic | a lot of people swear by irssi but i'm using xchat and i like it well enough | 12:08 |
| mannyz | avis- omg :o.. thats the one i used 1 year ago :o | 12:08 |
| Slart_ | mannyz: the best irc-client is always the next version of the one you're not using... always ;) | 12:08 |
| jzitt | avis-: I did click Unlock and saw what I described. | 12:08 |
| mannyz | Slart_ yeah :D.. ! | 12:08 |
| dougsko | kelvin-p: id double check the md5 sum of you cd to make sure its a good copy. or skip that and just make a new one | 12:09 |
| hiptobecubic | Slart_, figures. alright i'll do it later. | 12:09 |
| avis- | mannyz, its in the repos :) its not bad. there is another gnome xchat app you can see them but 'sudo apt-cache search xchat" | 12:09 |
| jzitt | dlozarie: Yup, I am. I see the window that opened now is titled "atho Properties" | 12:09 |
| Slart_ | !irc | mannyz, just pick one... | 12:09 |
| ubottu | mannyz, just pick one...: A list of official Ubuntu IRC channels, as well as IRC clients for Ubuntu, can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/InternetRelayChat - For a general list of !freenode channels, see http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#channellist - See also !Guidelines | 12:09 |

| jzitt | er, "ath0 Properties" | 12:09 |
| tyler | the only added line to the fstab is the last line | 12:10 |

| simon30 | i want to find ubuntu drivers for belkin wireless adapter please help me | 12:10 |
| hiptobecubic | Heres a fun one, for no reason i can find, the scroll portion of my touch pad turns back into regular touchpad space sometimes. i have to restart x to get it back. is there a way to reinitialize the mouse in the terminal or something? | 12:10 |
| dlozarie | *or should I say turn on the wifi. | 12:10 |
| simon30 | i want to find ubuntu drivers for belkin wireless adapter please help me | 12:10 |
| moDumass | hey yall, so the problem stands as, well, can enable wireless card and see wireless networks in vacinity | 12:10 |
| i | hi, is there a filemanager that is as userfriendly as Nautilus, but has two file panels like the mc? | 12:10 |
| dougsko | tyler: you can mount the raid device form the command line, right? | 12:10 |
| mannyz | avis- ill be back with xChat | 12:10 |
| avis- | jzitt, if you open a terminal and type iwconfig, if it lists something like wlan1 or ath0 or something along those lines, it'll tell you if its functional | 12:10 |
| tyler | dougsko: yes | 12:10 |
| moDumass | and select the one to connect to and type in password, even be connected | 12:10 |
| dougsko | tyler_d: whats the command you use? | 12:10 |
| moDumass | but cant access the internet through it | 12:10 |
| knightwise | has anybody had the problem where you install ubuntu hardy server and then do a sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop only to have it NOT work when you do startx ? | 12:11 |
| knightwise | 13:08:15 <knightwise> you just see the wallpaper of the heron and then you see a command line box in the top left .. and thats it | 12:11 |
| === i is now known as Inki | ||
| moDumass | knitewise are you trying to install | 12:11 |
| moDumass | how much ram on the machine? | 12:11 |
| Inki | anyone? | 12:11 |
| dlozarie | jzitt, yeah what avis- said. I typed iwconfig into my terminal and the wlan0 was functioning. try yours? | 12:11 |
| tyler | dougsko: well i did it yesterday and if i remember i just used sudo mount /dev /moves or something like that and it worked | 12:11 |
| knightwise | moDumass, I was trying to do an apt-get install xubuntu-desktop | 12:11 |
| moDumass | hmm, i know nothing | 12:12 |
| === selocol is now known as lainy | ||
| knightwise | moDumass, 2 gigs of ram | 12:12 |
| moDumass | jsut ran into that installing on a laptop with too little ram | 12:12 |
| moDumass | no idea sorry | 12:12 |
| MannyZ | avis- back :) | 12:12 |
| jzitt | avis-: Yup, it lists ath0 is there, though it also listed a wifi0, lo, and eth0 with no wireless extensions | 12:12 |
| Slart_ | Inki: I can't see your question due to your annoyingly short nick.. repeat it | 12:12 |
| === lainy is now known as selocol | ||
| persi | how much extra disk space do I need approximately if i want to install ubuntu over xubuntu? | 12:12 |
| dlozarie | jzitt, so lo, eth0, wmaster0, and wlan0 have no wireless extensions? | 12:13 |
| perplexed | this is giving me a headache | 12:13 |
| Inki | hi, is there a filemanager that is as userfriendly as Nautilus, but has two file panels like the mc? | 12:13 |
| dougsko | tyler: yeah for the most part you just need a line like this in your fstab: /dev/foo0 /mnt/ <type> defaults 0 0 | 12:13 |
| MannyZ | Does anyone know a screenrecorder program? | 12:13 |
| MannyZ | like camtasia studio | 12:13 |
| perplexed | first i couldnt boot my sys rc.local hang, now i find a way to bypasss that and i cant even run startx | 12:14 |
| jzitt | dlozarie: lo, eth0, and wifi0 have no wireless extensions, though ath0 has several lines of information | 12:14 |
| Slart_ | Inki: ah.. tried thunar? I can't remember if it's got 2 filepanes or not | 12:14 |
| dougsko | tyler: you can find your <type> by looking in /proc/filesystems for valid options. obviously, look for the one that looks like RAID | 12:14 |
| avis- | jzitt, if you look at the ath0 and wifi0 you'll see something like this Link Quality=0/70 Signal level=-95 dBm Noise level=-95 dBm if you start seeing numbers, then whatever you did actually worked | 12:14 |
| dlozarie | hmmm. I see. | 12:14 |
| perplexed | it just hangs | 12:14 |

| jzitt | avis-: Yup, I see exactly that, though with 98s instead of the 95s | 12:14 |

| Inki | Slart_: I like the k* stuff cause it's usually very usable | 12:15 |
| avis- | jzitt remember how you said there was a screen with "roaming enabled" checked you should be able to unlock that with the sudo password and configure your wireless settings there -- if its working. | 12:15 |

| atlef | Inki: elemFM2, but i can not seem to find a download | 12:15 |
| dlozarie | jzitt, wait but then again your network connection icon isn't three or four blue bars signifying network strength. | 12:15 |
| jzitt | dlozarie: "Firefox is in offline mode", it saus. | 12:15 |
| jburd | perplexed: Tried sudo invoke-rc.d gdm start instead? | 12:16 |
| dlozarie | jzitt, okay. | 12:16 |
| simmerz | I've got a dapper server, and for some reason crontab seems to have gone! | 12:16 |
| jzitt | dlozarie: Right, I don't have the bars thing. | 12:16 |
| dlozarie | jzitt: just making sure :D | 12:16 |
| Slart_ | Inki: lots of file managers here.. perhaps a good starting place.. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_file_managers | 12:16 |
| avis- | jzitt, thats great it looks like you have functional wireless. go to that little icon where you saw "roaming enabled" and unselect that (after unlocking it) the configure your wireless for the wireless device there with either static or dhcp | 12:16 |

| avis- | indeed jzitt :) you got it. go ahead and configure the wireless. copy and paste your auth key and all that. dhcp will work if you dont need ports open on that machine :) | 12:17 |
| blue-frog | MannyZ: then recordmydesktop should do. the man page is pretty straight forward and xwinfo can give you the pid of a window | 12:17 |
| jburd | perplexed: Err, why did you remove it in the first place? | 12:17 |
| perplexed | didnt think i needed it | 12:18 |

| dlozarie | jzitt, try the terminal commands avis- mentioned. | 12:30 |
| abdulla | My USB mouse doesn't work. How to fix that | 12:31 |
| avis- | jzitt, if your /etc/networking/interfaces is ok. the try sudo ifdown wifi0 then ping www.google.com then sudo ifup wifi0 then ping www.google.com. usually the device will be activated on the ifup when you do it in that order | 12:31 |

| ubottu | Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu! | 12:35 |
| avis- | jzitt, be sure that there is a "auto ath0" in that file. then do a sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart. it sounds like its configured to connect to the "linksys" SSID if that is not correct, change that, then restart networking. then do sudo ifdown ath0 then ping www.google.com the sudo ifup wifi0. that usually does the trick | 12:36 |

| dougsko | jzitt: if all else fails, try reinstalling the drivers manually. i needed to do that on two of my computers | 12:37 |
| bazhang | Vegombrei, best to boot with the most recent one; if something goes wrong though nice to have older ones around | 12:37 |

| loner269 | joe_chat, i did that it aint working | 12:52 |
| avis | jzitt, i think i know what you ought to do. edit /etc/network/interfaces remove the ath0 entry. then restart the networking like i said before. then since you are connected via wired connection, the wireless drop down menu should appear. it would not appear for me when i had it defined in the /etc/network/interfaces file. | 12:52 |
| pallavi | Is there Graphical client of Svn for ubuntu | 12:52 |
| dougsko | jzitt: follow these instructions and youll have working wifi (with packet injection even :)) http://pastebin.com/m39d54846 | 12:52 |
| joe_chat | loner269: what do u mean | 12:52 |
| loner269 | how to get it i did it aint | 12:52 |
| jrib | pallavi: rapidsvn is one | 12:52 |
| Jack_Sparrow | tyler First, check the ownership by going to /media and doing a ls -la ... | 12:52 |

| dlozarie | i hafta eat sum dinner peeps. brb :D | 12:53 |
| pallavi | Thanks for reply | 12:53 |
| loner269 | e17 i want i try to get it wont let me get but i still want | 12:53 |
| avis | jzitt, so as long as you remore wireless from the interface file, restart networking, if your wireless is working at all, you should get a drop down menu after a right click. if its defined, it wont work. i've been trying to figure out your program on my end so i can help you | 12:53 |
| dlozarie | hmm. arkos49 left. wonder what happened. :? | 12:54 |
| pallavi | Other then rapidsvn any other client is there> | 12:54 |

| ksbalaji | Jack_Sparrow, thanks for responding! no problem. | 12:55 |
| Jack_Sparrow | tyler that doesnt tell me what I wanted to know.. What distro or release are you running.. Not ubuntu? | 12:56 |
| dougsko | jzitt: if that works for you, you should save those instructions, because youll need to repeat them if you update your RestrictedModules package. or you could freeze that package, but it only takes a minute to run those commands | 12:56 |

| bazhang | ksbalaji, try removing and reinstalling | 12:58 |

| jaivikram | k | 12:59 |
| jzitt | dougsko: Hmm, what you pasted seems to require my having a wired connection, which I don't right now. I've saved them, and am trying bazhang's suggestion | 12:59 |

| Jack_Sparrow | tyler First, check the ownership by going to /media and doing a ls -la ... | 12:59 |
| jaivikram | so u tell me what should i e doing | 12:59 |
| ksbalaji | bazhang, I tried. But somewhere configuration is being retained. I get same configuration on reinstalling. | 12:59 |
| bazhang | ksbalaji, the remove (purge) | 12:59 |
| dougsko | jzitt: yeah wget and svn grab source files off the internets | 12:59 |

| === jacob_ is now known as Guest56835 | ||
| Jack_Sparrow | tyler Are you typing ls -la | 13:01 |
| avis | jzitt, if you remove wifi from the interfaces file, it wont matter if your connected via wired or not. the wireless drop down list should reenable itself after that. you have to restart first with /etc/init.d/networking restart after saving changes. then it should work like magic | 13:01 |
| loner269 | E: Package enlightenment has no installation candidate | 13:01 |
| rconan | not very ubuntu related but has anyone used wget on windows to download large files? | 13:01 |
| tyler | jack_sparrow: yes i went to cd to /media then i typed ls -la | 13:01 |
| rconan | i get negative percentages for completion! | 13:01 |
| tyler | it shows that in the pastebin | 13:01 |
| ksbalaji | bye friends! | 13:01 |
| bazhang | rconan, ask in ubuntu offtopic channel | 13:01 |

| idefine | joaopinto: did you use the ns wrapper? | 13:05 |
| joaopinto | dougsko, there are no major issues with 64bits lately | 13:05 |
| rconan | dougsko, I've been using ubuntu and/or linux for many a year now. i even used warty when it was current | 13:05 |

| Jack_Sparrow | tyler I am going to make some coffee.. perhaps someone else can help you out with that | 13:06 |
| jzitt | OK, well, I edited those lines out of /etc/network/interfaces then did the restart thing, and the ... oh, hell, menus have changed, things are worse, I think, I don't understand what I'm seeing.

| tyler | thanks....can anyone else help with a permissions problem im having with a new drive i added to fstab | 13:07 |
| rconan | idefine, there's the kernel/userspace split thing. | 13:07 |
| rconan | IIRC | 13:07 |
| avis | jzitt, what i suggest you do shouldn't change your menus. it ought to enable a drop down list with a right click though. i hope you only removed lines that appeared to have something to do with ath0. | 13:08 |
| dhouha | ahmed slt | 13:08 |
| joaopinto | idefine, I believe the server optimized kernel includes a patch for that | 13:08 |
| dhouha | té là? | 13:08 |
| rconan | but the server kernel is not low latency | 13:08 |
| jzitt | avis: Yeah, I did, and I saved a backup copy. The menus changed. I'm guessing that things work differently in some obscure way that whoever programmed it didn;t bother to tell people about, and we're just hosed. | 13:09 |

| tux666 | Curious, is there a better option to run(you're going to laugh, but many of my friends are on it) MySpace IM than running it within a minimal Win2k VMWare Install? | 13:26 |
| branstrom | I can su to his user account, but when I try notify-send I get: | 13:27 |
| branstrom | libnotify-Message: Unable to get session bus: dbus-launch failed to autolaunch D-Bus session: Autolaunch error: X11 initialization failed. | 13:27 |

| Jay_Dee | branstrom: ssh to his machine and use the write command, one of my fav's | 13:27 |
| OrcKhsu | tux666: you can do MySpace IM in Pidgin | 13:28 |
| tux666 | hmmm never used Pidgin. Successor to Gaim, right? | 13:28 |
| OrcKhsu | tux666: yeah, the same thing | 13:28 |
| branstrom | Jay_Dee: write? hmm | 13:29 |

| boyombo | i am a linux newbie and just installed ubuntu. i can browse fairly well but anytime i try an apt-get or wget i get an error that says 'ISA Server denied the Uniform Resource Locator' | 13:30 |
| gold | ooooooo thenkssss very machh :) | 13:30 |
| branstrom | Jay_Dee: he is in X though, graphically you know, so he hasn't got his eyes on a terminal :) | 13:30 |
| branstrom | That's why I wanted to use notify-send. Hmm. | 13:31 |
| boyombo | i am a linux newbie and just installed ubuntu. i can browse fairly well but anytime i try an apt-get or wget i get an error that says 'ISA Server denied the Uniform Resource Locator' | 13:31 |
| Jay_Dee | yeah, still display if you get the correct tty name | 13:31 |
| ZeroA4 | boyombo, ISA is a Windows Server Firewall... looks like you are blocked by it | 13:31 |
| ne2k__ | boyombo: have you set a proxy server? are you on a corporate network with blocking? | 13:31 |
| boyombo | i am on a network | 13:31 |
| branstrom | Jay_Dee: it'll pop up an alert, or what? | 13:32 |
| Jay_Dee | branstrom: Displays as some kwrite or gedit or whatever depending what he's using/what is defults are set to | 13:32 |
| idimmu | ZeroA4: any idea how apt-get would know that a specific firewall is dropping packets? does ISA identify itself? | 13:32 |
| boyombo | can i set apt-get to use port 80 or something? | 13:32 |
| idimmu | thats both awesomely useful and terrible | 13:32 |
| ZeroA4 | idimmu, dont know | 13:32 |
| idimmu | oh maybe its jus a proxy | 13:32 |
| Jay_Dee | branstrom: try it on your own maching, | 13:32 |
| idimmu | thatd explain it | 13:32 |
| tux666 | that reminded me to reinstall vmware-each kernel upgrade makes me have to do that with vmware | 13:33 |
| boyombo | ZeroA4: i get the same error when i browse via an adhoc connection | 13:34 |
| branstrom | Jay_Dee: how do I know which tty? | 13:34 |
| Jay_Dee | branstrom: chances are he is only running one, once you ssh over do a finger | 13:34 |

| Ganandorf | Hi guys i have two hard drives a 250 and a 320 i want to install windows on the 320 and linux on the 250 but will will have to boot from each harddrive seperate to use the specific os but i want to know if that is better than dual booting linux and windows on one the 320 how easy or hard is it to dual boot and how safe will your data be | 14:02 |
| Ganandorf | and can windows see a harddrive that has linux on it | 14:02 |
| jrib | !ext3 | Ganandorf | 14:02 |
| ubottu | Ganandorf: ext3 is the default filesystem on Ubuntu, and the most popular on Linux. You can read/write from Windows to ext3 via http://www.fs-driver.org | 14:02 |
| Ganandorf | ok cool thanks and what about which is better dual booting or having the os's on seperate harddrives | 14:04 |
| === kerren is now known as marcella | ||
| v0lksman | Ganandorf: if you mean flipping the drives physically between boots that's kinda extremem | 14:04 |
| v0lksman | extreme | 14:04 |
| Ganandorf | not physically just through system bios | 14:05 |
| v0lksman | dual booting is fine...the biggest problem is when windows decides to re-write the MBR... | 14:05 |
| tech0007 | Ganandorf: it doesnt matter, but better keep your data on separate partition/drive | 14:05 |
| pho3nix | Does anyone know how to install Amarok MP3 support manually? | 14:05 |

| sudobash | if it already installed to partition and you just need grub | 14:51 |
| Vlet | Hrundik1: thanks - I'll go read up :) | 14:51 |
| pjv | is there a remasterme for windows, or an application similar to it? | 14:52 |
| Slart_ | neil`-: ah.. that explains it.. well.. I have no idea how ubuntu installs all the stuff... I wouldn't keep poking at an unfinished install.. I'd reinstall until it worked | 14:52 |
| persi | yeah already got the idea about the sharp knife, but is there a way to start it as a root from gui? or i should always use terminal? | 14:52 |
| MannyZ | Cedega or wine to play .exe games? | 14:52 |
| neil`- | ill try, thnx | 14:52 |
| ruiboon | bullgard4: could you try to recreate a new directory and check if it is still under root. if so, try changing it to your user. next check if terminal and mc display the correct user/grp | 14:52 |
| Slart_ | persi: from a gui.. well.. alt+f2 and write "gksudo thunar".. but please.. be careful | 14:52 |

But the job still appears to be in the queue (according to the "Document print status" window. I think perhaps the real problem is that the printer status shows "Stopped" rather than idle | 15:10 |
| pjharper_ | What am I doing wrong | 15:10 |
| pjharper_ | ? | 15:10 |
| ikonia | ezine: I know the windows product mapserver, but I wanted to know if you wanted mapserver, or an "imap" server | 15:10 |

| ruiboon | bullgard4: lets put it this way. a mount point is a special directory that allows you to access another partition. (this is called drives in windows) normally, this is mounted at boot time so it the user is root | 15:11 |

| tech0007 | oldenglish: try creating that dir | 15:13 |
| bullgard4 | ruiboon: Yes, I have configured this partition so that it mounts at boot time. | 15:13 |

| ^Migs^ | this is through the GUI | 15:13 |
| Slart_ | emilioeduardob: for example.. to stop samba youd run "sudo /etc/init.d/samba stop" | 15:13 |
| MannyZ | wich one you prefer.. KSniffer or DSniffer? | 15:13 |
| oldenglish | tech007: I don't even have a /usr/local/var directory... | 15:14 |
| ruiboon | ikonia: oo. i remember doing something like that. must be my memory. so is there anyway for a user to create files/dir in that mount point without using sudo? | 15:14 |
| emilioeduardob | Slart_: but can i prevent it from starting each time i reboot? | 15:14 |
| tech0007 | oldenglish: 'sudo mkdir /<name of dir>' | 15:14 |

| quarterlife | I have a problem with packages, more info: http://qu.dy.fi/~quarterlife/ubuntu-problem.txt | 15:15 |
| w0ah | i was looking at the 8.04 release notes and i do believe that the new network manager changes may have affected me. my internet connection works most of the time, but occasionally (about once a week), it quits working. after it goes down, ifconfig eth0 up/down, dhclient eth0, and dhcpcd eth0 don't help anything... so, how do you "re-enable them in /etc/network/interfaces manually" as the notes say? | 15:15 |
| loner269 | 8.04lts ce hates me for tryn to get e17 an i dont know why lol lol | 15:15 |
| soundray | bullgard4: type 'id' in a terminal. This will tell you your uid and gid. Add those to /etc/fstab under options. | 15:15 |
| tech0007 | bullgard4: add this to /etc/fstab: rw,user | 15:15 |

| ASUS-tek | well how is e 17 | 15:15 |
| ikonia | LOWER_CASE: I'm not interested thanks | 15:15 |
| Slart_ | emilioeduardob: there is a "service" dialog in system, administration.. perhaps you can do something there | 15:16 |
| soundray | bullgard4: if it says 'defaults' at the moment, it should say 'uid=1000,gid=1000' afterwards (if 1000 is your gid and uid; no spaces) | 15:16 |
| emilioeduardob | Slart_: i'm running ubuntu server =P | 15:16 |
| ^Migs^ | okay wait, do I specify BOTH my /dev/sda and /dev/sdb as "logical" if I want to use LVM? | 15:16 |
| Slart_ | emilioeduardob: oh.. no dialow for you then | 15:16 |
| ^Migs^ | then what do I use as the mount point for each? | 15:16 |
| ^Migs^ | they can't both be "/" can they? | 15:16 |
| oldenglish | tech0007: I know how to create a directory...I would imagine there are some contents of that file/directory that would need to be there for it to work. | 15:16 |
| Slart_ | emilioeduardob: check out the /etc/rc.d/ folder.. see if you can make sense of it | 15:16 |
| ikonia | ^Migs^: you don't mount the physical volumes if your using lvm | 15:16 |
| bullgard4 | soundray, tech0007 I will do as advised. I will see the result only in 10 mins after rebooting. | 15:16 |
| soundray | emilioeduardob: what exactly do you want to do? | 15:16 |
| ruiboon | ikonia: the user has added an entry in /etc/fstab for a partition be to mounted at /home/detlef/detlef2/. this dir is owned by root. sudo chown does not seem to change the owner (should because this is a mount point) | 15:17 |
| emilioeduardob | soundray: i want to disable for example firebird from starting automaticly each time i reboot | 15:17 |
| LOWER_CASE | ikonia: sorry I'm not selling. I was wondering if it worked before buying one. | 15:17 |
| tech0007 | oldenglish: its trying to create a socket in that dir | 15:17 |

| === lmr is now known as lmr[lunch] | ||
| oldenglish | tech0007: ok | 15:17 |
| ikonia | LOWER_CASE: how do we know if it works ??? check if it's supported or not and decide if you want to take that chance | 15:17 |
| ^Migs^ | ikonia, I set them both as logical using ext3, but the Ubuntu GUI says it needs a mount point | 15:17 |
| soundray | emilioeduardob: 'sudo update-rc.d firebird remove' will work if a /etc/init.d/firebird exists. | 15:17 |
| MannyZ | with KSniffer you can see other peoples mail and stuff :D? | 15:17 |
| ikonia | ^Migs^: logical ??? I thought you want to use lvm | 15:18 |
| emilioeduardob | soundray: great! thanks =) | 15:18 |
| ^Migs^ | it's not the same thing? | 15:18 |
| ikonia | ^Migs^: no | 15:18 |
| ^Migs^ | wait, how do I do this | 15:18 |
| soundray | emilioeduardob: for some services, you will have to use the -f option. man update-rc.d | 15:18 |
| ^Migs^ | I'm installing Ubuntu for the first time | 15:18 |
| bullgard4 | soundray: id returns uid=1000(detlef), gid=1000(detlef) | 15:18 |
| ^Migs^ | and I'm at the partition menu. If I want them to function as the same volume, what do I do? | 15:18 |
| Slart_ | soundray: is that a linux thing? or an ubuntu thing? | 15:18 |
| ikonia | ^Migs^: don't use lvm for your first install, just install to a normal - flat physical disk | 15:18 |
| ^Migs^ | oh, ok | 15:18 |
| ^Migs^ | will do | 15:18 |
| ruiboon | ikonia: yap. i understand that. but the chown will only work until the next mount. | 15:18 |
| ^Migs^ | should I just leave one hard drive unpartitioned? | 15:19 |

| ikonia | ruiboon: no, chown will work on the unmounted mount point, or - if you mount the disk it will work on the file system unless the file system is fat32 | 15:19 |
| ikonia | ^Migs^: you can partition it, sure | 15:19 |
| CyD | how do i easily remove all the packages that installed with xubuntu-desktop package? | 15:19 |
| soundray | CyD: 'sudo apt-get --purge remove xubuntu-desktop ; sudo apt-get autoremove' | 15:20 |
| tux666 | CyD, I like Ubuntu, but you'd be better off with a minimal Debian install or such, if you don't want included apps, etc | 15:20 |

| kyncani | Azmodan: well, last time i did not have sound in kde, only in gnome, it was a volume level that was muted. I had checked like 5 times and did not understand why gnome could play sound and not kde. So you may try login into gnome and see if you have sound. | 15:45 |

| sportman1280 | soundray: i try changing the java plugin name in about:config to have lib before it like the filename has... but didnt have any change at all | 15:45 |
| Hideme | Jack_Sparrow: It's not necessarily hanging though. The machine actually powers down, and starts itself up 5~10 second later. I attribute it to something in Ubuntu, as I didn't have this problem while running a Win o/s | 15:46 |
| Azmodan | kyncani, i don't have gnome | 15:46 |
| soundray | sportman1280: your plugin is not matched to your java virtual machine. You need to solve this by getting the proper plugin package (for Sun) or by installing the proper virtual machine (for gcj) | 15:46 |

| khaled | hello | 15:48 |
| sportman1280 | soundray: they are both: 6-06-0ubuntu1 | 15:48 |
| kyncani | sherkin: i think so, i've found very verbose login in cups very good for problem solving | 15:48 |
| codecaine | ty | 15:48 |
| dude_1213627493 | anyone using konversation in here? | 15:48 |
| soundray | sportman1280: you can't use the GCJ plugin if your java is Sun's | 15:48 |
| sportman1280 | soundray: we are using sun by | 15:48 |
| tech0007 | Hideme: supposed to..yes..you can check whats causing it not to shut down at least | 15:49 |
| bullgard4 | soundray: I am sorry that I did not follow your advice to put 'uid=1000,gid=1000' in. I had to decide between two proposals. What is the main difference to 'rw, user'? | 15:49 |
| Jadd76 | I'm doing a small home movie with friends. Can anyone recommend a video editor on Ubuntu? | 15:49 |
| * sherkin is trying verbose logs | 15:49 | |
| RedLXXXIV | So, without breaking my install, clean installing or downgrading from Hardy to Gutsy, I need to find a way to use V4L drivers for my cam by default instead of the Generic USB 2.0 | 15:49 |
| gordonjcp | Jadd76: kdenlive seems quite good | 15:49 |
| Hideme | tech0007: it shuts down. powers off completely. But as I said come back on itself | 15:49 |
| RedLXXXIV | and I'm losing my mind trying to figure it out. | 15:49 |
| gordonjcp | Jadd76: Linux doesn't have much in the way of decent video editing software really | 15:49 |
| Jack_Sparrow | RedLXXXIV What specific webcam | 15:50 |
| soundray | bullgard4: if you're happy with the way it works now, it doesn't matter. Read 'man mount' to find out the details about the options. | 15:50 |
| tech0007 | Hideme: hmmm...weird | 15:50 |
| jrib | Jadd76: kino and pititvi are two | 15:50 |
| dodol | fgf | 15:50 |
| Jadd76 | gordonjcp: I know, I was just wondering which one I should learn | 15:50 |
| kyncani | Hideme: tried to remove any ethernet cable (just to make sure it's not wake-on-lan related) | 15:50 |
| jrib | Jadd76: pitivi, sorry | 15:50 |
| Hideme | kyncani: I could.... but that feature is disabled. :) | 15:50 |
| Jadd76 | Jadd76: which one's least likely to become abandonware? | 15:50 |
| sportman1280 | soundray: ah, i see... so i just remove icedtea-webplugin and that should fix it? | 15:51 |
| jneves | anyone ever had a strange NFS problem where a group of a user is not recognized? | 15:51 |
| bullgard4 | soundray, ruiboon, tech0007 : Thank you very much for your help. | 15:51 |
| kyncani | Hideme: well, a friend at work was asking the same question some time ago and it was wake-on-lan (I had a good laugh) | 15:51 |
| soundray | sportman1280: if the Sun plugin package is still in place, then probably yes. You will have to restart firefox. | 15:51 |
| Jadd76 | Oh, and I would like it to be cross platform | 15:52 |
| Jack_Sparrow | kyncani Agreed that has caught most of us at some time or another.. | 15:52 |
| sportman1280 | soundray: thanks, ill look into it from here | 15:52 |
| kyncani | Jack_Sparrow: yeah :)) | 15:52 |

| ASULutzy | Wow... So I got ssh -X to work... Do people actually use this? lol it's so unbearably slow... Like slower than mstsc in Windows | 15:53 |
| soundray | ASULutzy: try ssh -CX (turns on compression) | 15:53 |
| anders | for you academics in here, i just discovered zotero which is wonderful as a reference manager, check it out :) | 15:53 |
| ASULutzy | Ah ok | 15:53 |
| Jadd76 | Thx, bye | 15:54 |
| soundray | ASULutzy: even then, it's unbearably slow on Suns, but manageable on Linux and Mac if the machine is fast. | 15:54 |

| ASULutzy | soundray: I just typed gedit and it worked... It was slowish, but I can deal with it... Honestly I never really care to forward X, I can't think of a reason I'd actually need to | 15:55 |

| kyncani | filo1234: (still using 7.10 on eee 701 here) | 15:56 |

| eclipse_mint | hi, i am looking to install ubuntu on a computer that has no monitor (but has a CD Drive). I only have a laptop. How do I go about installing ubuntu server on it remotely to make it a webserver? can someone link me to a guide? | 15:57 |
| sportman1280 | soundray: i removed the sun version, still have the same issue | 15:57 |
| Jack_Sparrow | McChic1 the most common fix is.. At start or install press F6 and remove Quiet and Splash from the command line. If it still fails.. Repeat and after removing quiet and splash add noapic acpi=off before the "--" | 15:57 |
| sportman1280 | soundray: i did restart the browser | 15:57 |
| McChic1 | Thanks, Jack, but I'm not getting that far. I can't get it to boot from cd | 15:57 |
| McChic1 | Keeps booting to xp | 15:58 |
| soundray | sportman1280: if your configured jvm is Sun (as your update-alternatives indicates), you should *install* the sun java plugin and remove every other. | 15:58 |
| Jack_Sparrow | McChic1 Did you burn the cd yourself? | 15:58 |
| McChic1 | Yeah | 15:58 |
| Jack_Sparrow | McChic1 looking at the cd with windows.. do you see one .iso file or multiple files and folders | 15:58 |
| sportman1280 | soundray: well the icedtea is just suns opensource i will go with that, so i removed all of the sun java components | 15:59 |
| Flare183 | When I upgraded to Hardy a few weeks ago after I rebooted the computer I noticed that my bcm43xx wireless card's driver didn't automatically modprobe. But when I went and opened the blacklist the driver was there. What should I do to make it automattically modprobe like it did on Gutsy? | 15:59 |
| soundray | sportman1280: it doesn't matter what you do, as long as you end up with a plugin that matches the JVM that's present and configured on your machine. | 16:00 |
| McChic | Just the iso | 16:00 |
| ktwo | anyone knows why the compiz "application switcher" sometimes just shows an application's icon and not the small preview picture? | 16:00 |
| tech0007 | Flare183: take it off the blacklist then | 16:00 |
| Jack_Sparrow | McChic YOu burned the cd wrong.. You need to burn it as an image not as a file. | 16:00 |
| RedLXXXIV | actually, I'll brb. Gonna boot from livecd, make a recovery patition | 16:00 |
| MannyZ | install steam with cedega or whine? | 16:00 |
| sportman1280 | soundray: thats what i thought. but it still isnt working... i have openjdk being used as the jvm | 16:00 |
| McChic | k, how do I do that? | 16:00 |
| soundray | !burniso | mcchic | 16:00 |
| ubottu | mcchic: To burn an ISO image of a CD in Linux, Mac OS or Windows, read the howto at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BurningIsoHowto | 16:00 |
| Kl4m | ASULutzy: some applications (Java notoriously) are very bad with forwarded X, because they refresh too much for nothing | 16:00 |
| Jack_Sparrow | McChic you can use a number of windows toold to do it including free ones like isorecoreder | 16:01 |

| Flare183 | tech0007: But I thought it was supposed to be on the blacklist. If it is on the blacklist isn't it supposed to automatically be modprobed when you boot up the computer and start Ubuntu? | 16:01 |
| soundray | tux666: please use professional language in this channel | 16:01 |
| tech0007 | Flare183: do u want it to be loaded or not? | 16:02 |

| tech0007 | joaopinto: how or where do i do that? | 16:26 |
| soundray | w3D: you make too many of those. | 16:27 |
| clintchance | What do you two thank about it as a Game Maker? | 16:27 |

| joaopinto | clintchance, hum ? | 16:28 |
| soundray | tech0007: have you looked at specialized daemons? apt-cache search apc ups daemon | 16:28 |
| clintchance | joaopinto, using it to code games | 16:29 |
| tech0007 | soundray: checking | 16:29 |
| Pici | clintchance: What IDE you use is of little consequence to the type of program you are making | 16:29 |
| joaopinto | clintchance, I agree with Pici | 16:30 |
| tech0007 | soundray: found 3. apcupsd, collectd and powstatd...any tips which the best one and a direction on how to do it? | 16:30 |
| soundray | tech0007: :) I wouldn't give you an apt-cache search suggestion if I had relevant experience. | 16:31 |
| stemount^ | clintchance: I have no idea on developing gmaes | 16:31 |
| tech0007 | soundray: ok, gotcha | 16:31 |
| soundray | tech0007: I think apcupsd is specific to APC devices. | 16:31 |
| tech0007 | soundray: guess i'll ask ever-friendly google | 16:31 |
| === pascutti is now known as pascutti|away | ||
| soundray | tech0007: I think your next step should be 'apt-cache show powstatd' | 16:32 |

| NeuroExploder | i cant do it public too | 16:38 |

| perplexed | why wont network-admin let me click 'unlock'? | 16:40 |
| joaopinto | NeuroExploder, the default ftp config is usually good enough, if you have no special requirements, it's done | 16:40 |
| joaopinto | you can login with a system user/pass | 16:40 |
| bazhang | clintchance, then dual boot or run the million or so games in the repos :) | 16:40 |
| clintchance | bazhang, im not going back to that system crashing virus riden operating system | 16:41 |

| perplexed | why wont network-admin let me click 'unlock'? | 16:42 |
| NeuroExploder | joaopinto, none. just says cant find server. (invalid url with the IP) | 16:42 |
| clintchance | perplexed restart the program | 16:42 |
| hosified | perplexed: not sure, but you might need to be in the sudoers list | 16:42 |
| joaopinto | NeuroExploder, erm, that is not related to your ftp server config, most likely your lack of understanding how ftp/network works | 16:43 |
| joaopinto | NeuroExploder, do you want to setup a public ftp server ? is that your goal ? | 16:43 |

| soundray | Uplink: kill -9 is a last resort | 16:44 |
| Flynsarmy | Why does enabling folder sharing not automatically gksudo as you click apply rather than telling you that you don't have permission? it's not very user friendly at all | 16:44 |
| NeuroExploder | joaopinto, with SmartFTP | 16:44 |
| BedMan | hosified: only with pkill - not kill | 16:44 |

| BedMan | killall != kill | 16:44 |
| joaopinto | hosified, killall handles process names, kill does not | 16:44 |

| joaopinto | rothchild, if you are converting a file format and the conversion get's to the end without any warning about data loss or truncated output, that is a bug :) | 16:48 |
| DRebellion | TOG_away, ~/.wine/ i believe | 16:48 |

| kyncani | Flynsarmy: well it's the first time i hear about it, but it's hosted on ubuntu.com so it musr be official. We'll see if it gets mentionned in an ubuntu news newsletter | 16:53 |
| capri | ok | 16:54 |
| joaopinto | capri, you can have that with gnome with awn | 16:54 |
| DRebellion | DarkAudit, surely you can use wine + wow without a desktop enviroment at all? | 16:54 |
| capri | joapinto: can u refer me some website ? | 16:54 |
| capri | to configure it | 16:55 |
| NeuroExploder | joaopinto, what do you recommend I use to publicly broadcast certain files to others anonymously? | 16:55 |
| joaopinto | capri, on the package manager search for "avant" | 16:55 |

| perplexed | how do i change the default runlevel to 3? | 16:55 |
| TOG_away | file system doesn't exactly work like explorer does it? | 16:55 |
| joaopinto | NeuroExploder, ftp is good for that, so far your problem is about basic concepts, like connecting using the command line ftp: ftp xx.xx.xx.xx | 16:56 |
| DRebellion | TOG_away, what do you mean? | 16:56 |
| joaopinto | NeuroExploder, man vsftp , check for the vsftp config file, and check the options related to anynimous ftp | 16:56 |
| capri | joapinto: now which one i should refer .. avant awn or cairo-dock ? | 16:56 |
| morenoandaluz | ola a todos | 16:56 |
| joaopinto | capri, awn since it is available from the ubuntu repositories | 16:56 |
| DRebellion | joaopinto, running an ftpd won't let you broadcast files anonymously | 16:56 |
| DarkAudit | DRebellion: I'm not sure if that's possible, and it's going a little too dep for me anyway :) | 16:56 |
| DarkAudit | deep* | 16:56 |
| capri | ok | 16:56 |
| TOG_away | i guess, i feel like i'm downloading stuff, and i don't know where it's going. does file system work like explorer and i'm just lost in space? | 16:57 |
| joaopinto | DRebellion, sure it does, anonymously from an authentication perspective, not from an internet identify perspective | 16:57 |

| jjido | Hello, can I ask some newbie question? | 17:21 |
| dromer | funkyHat: nope, installing now :) | 17:21 |
| codecaine | yes | 17:21 |
| DarkAudit | I have aterm installed and set as the preferred terminal, but the change won't take | 17:21 |
| Intangir | im about to do an apache2 upgrade, and the package updater is wanting to remove libapache2-mod-php5 and install php5-cli instead. i was under the impression that the module way was faster. whats the deal here? | 17:21 |
| jjido | I would like to know if I am using lilo or grub and where is the config file | 17:21 |
| dromer | funkyHat: if I restart FF now it should not be hogging the soundcard anymore? | 17:22 |
| Jack_Sparrow | NewUser1011 remove the # at the front of the lines as I did in this example http://paste.ubuntu.com/20653/ | 17:22 |
| DarkAudit | I go to accessories>terminal, and the regular terminal shows up instead | 17:22 |
| Mr_Cool59 | paste.ubuntu.com | 17:22 |
| TOG_away | how do i make an .iso? | 17:23 |
| NewUser1011 | Jack_Sparrow: ok i will, give me a minute | 17:23 |
| Jack_Sparrow | NewUser1011 One more to do.. line 59 needs to be enabled.. # deb http://archive.canonical.com/ubuntu gutsy partner | 17:23 |
| thomas_ | mkisofs | 17:23 |
| jjido | I would like to know how to configure lilo or grub (not sure which one I am using) | 17:23 |
| dromer | funkyHat: hmm, if I have mpd running when starting for instance youtube .. I have no sound from the clip | 17:24 |
| soundray | jjido: are you on Ubuntu? | 17:24 |
| codecaine | jjido probably grub if your using ubuntu | 17:24 |
| jjido | soundray: yes | 17:24 |
| DarkAudit | crap... if there's an answer, I'll have to get it later... storm coming... bye | 17:24 |
| Mr_Cool59 | http://paste.ubuntu.com/20655 can some one look at this and see if i have a problem | 17:25 |
| jjido | codecaine: I installed with Gentoo first | 17:25 |
| soundray | DarkAudit: the menu entry will always launch gnome-terminal, unless you change it. I suggest you create a new aterm launcher in the top panel. | 17:25 |
| jjido | How do you configure grub? | 17:25 |
| codecaine | gentoo uses grub to | 17:25 |
| soundray | jjido: what do you want to configure? | 17:25 |
| jjido | I want to add one partition | 17:25 |
| jjido | it should be mostly copy-paste | 17:25 |
| codecaine | jjido you can download super grub and it will configure it for you | 17:26 |
| soundray | jjido: add a section to /boot/grub/menu.lst outside of the AUTOMAGIC KERNELS LIST | 17:26 |
| codecaine | google super grub | 17:26 |
| RadiantFire | jjido: you don't need to adjust grub to add a partition | 17:26 |
| jjido | RadiantFire: I mean a boot partition | 17:26 |
| TOG_away | how do i type my cd drive? | 17:27 |

| student12 | I got a .tar.gz file from my school, to install maple, It had a bin installer, during the installation it proposed to install everything in my home folder, I said yes. Now there is a folder named maple11 in my homefolder, but I can't find anywhere anything to click on to start maple, And I don't find it in the applications menu, and I tried typing "maple" or maple11" in konsole | 17:28 |
| akahige | I'm trying to get nfs working on Hardy (connecting as a client to a nas). followed the instructions and I can mount the directory. reads are fine, but I can't write. the process never completes. and when I try to change directories, I can only get one dir down -- any more than that and nautilus just goes away. anybody got any ideas? | 17:28 |
| TOG_away | yeah, in dos, i'd type d: and it would go there | 17:28 |
| TOG_away | how do i do that in ubuntu so i can find it under file syste | 17:28 |
| codecaine | usually ubuntu mounts it for you it would be in /media | 17:28 |
| codecaine | ls in there | 17:28 |
| codecaine | you will see it | 17:28 |
| soundray | TOG_away: cd /media/cdrom | 17:28 |
| TOG_away | ok | 17:28 |
| simplexio | student12: how about browsing that folder for executable ?, easiest way is use cmdline. ls shoes directory content and green files are executables | 17:29 |
| TOG_away | thanks... i thinks maybe i have a whole lot to learn about linux. cause that doesn't seem like it makes any sense. but i'm sure it has reason | 17:29 |
| jjido | soundray: Thanks, but /boot/grub/menu.lst does not match my boot menu | 17:29 |
| soundray | student12: do a 'cd ~/maple11' and do a 'ls' to see what's there. You can probably start it with './maple' from there. | 17:29 |
| jjido | soundray: I think I am still using lilo | 17:30 |
| Jack_Sparrow | TOG_away When you insert a data cd it should auto mount to your desktop as an icon | 17:30 |
| capri | why my awn is not working | 17:30 |
| capri | i run awn manager | 17:30 |
| soundray | jjido: then it's /etc/lilo.conf (and I recommend you do a proper Ubuntu install as soon as possible) | 17:30 |
| Jack_Sparrow | NewUser1011 Did I lose you? | 17:30 |
| Mr_Cool59 | http://paste.ubuntu.com/20655 can some one look at this and see if i have a problem | 17:30 |

| Certain | Hello! | 17:37 |
| olifre | dbugger: fglrx already loaded? installed from repo or compiled yourself? | 17:37 |
| funkyHat | dromer: check if pulseaudio-esound-compat is installed | 17:38 |
| olifre | alexander_: using ubuntu? try to right-click and unlock them. | 17:38 |
| dbugger | olifre: I think it's loaded.... :\ How can I know it for sure? | 17:38 |
| EvilDennisR | dbugger: I've tried getting fglrx on three different machines, all with dual monitors, with dozens of different tutorials explaining how to do it. Every time, it crashes my machine | 17:38 |
| TOG_away | man...isos take a while to make | 17:38 |
| olifre | lsmod | grep fglrx, or even better, glxinfo | 17:38 |
| dromer | funkyHat: it was not, thank you | 17:38 |
| dbugger | olifre: fglrxinfo tells me MESA is running everything | 17:39 |
| dbugger | EvilDennisR: I didnt go as far as "crash" but when i try to activate the hw acceleration, and reboot, I get a black screen of death | 17:39 |
| olifre | dbugger: then, it is not really loaded. Did you install it via restricted drivers or compile yourself? | 17:39 |
| EvilDennisR | dbugger: Yeah, same deal with me | 17:39 |
| Jack_Sparrow | NewUser1011 Did I lose you? | 17:40 |
| EvilDennisR | I ended up just using the generic radeon driver, and said F-it to GL support | 17:40 |
| funkyHat | dromer: once that's installed, if you go to system > preferences > sound, and on the 'sounds' tab, make sure 'enable software sound mixing (ESD)' is installed, that will make sure pulseaudio is started automatically | 17:40 |

| olifre | There is a fine wiki-page, too, just a second ^^. I used that one to walk me through it. | 17:41 |
| dbugger | olifre: which is the url? | 17:41 |

| dranfi | I need help to get WPA working on a dwl-g650+ Rev B1 (chipset acx), I have WEP working with ndiswrapper. | 17:43 |
| olifre | dbugger: look at Alten Treiber deinstallieren, and remove all the packages listed there (only three) | 17:43 |
| funkyHat | dromer: pulseaudio can actually be run as a system daemon rather than by the user but I think the devs say it's better for it to be run by the user | 17:43 |
| tyranos | EvilDennisR, that is what i tought but i killed all the applets that were still running but i didnt find the culprit | 17:43 |
| dbugger | olifre: ok | 17:44 |
| EvilDennisR | tyranos: login on the console and /sbin/killall5 | 17:44 |
| EvilDennisR | tyranos: that will kill everything you're running | 17:44 |
| alexander_ | ok i got it fixed by unlocking | 17:44 |
| olifre | dbugger: then, do a sudo rm /usr/src/fglrx-kernel*.deb | 17:44 |
| olifre | dbugger: then, do a sudo gedit /etc/default/linux-restricted-modules-common, and add DISABLED_MODULES="fglrx" | 17:44 |
| tyranos | EvilDennisR, thx i will try it nexttime , as i have to wait for it to happen | 17:45 |
| dbugger | olifre: I dont have installed xorg-driver-fglrx.... is that a problem? | 17:45 |
| funkyHat | dromer: there's a package in fedora called fluxbox-pulseaudio .. don't really know what it's for though | 17:45 |
| dromer | funkyHat: I have no idea what fluxbox has, but personally I'd rather have it start on boot, since mpd needs to run without being logged in | 17:45 |
| olifre | No, just remove those that have been there ^^. | 17:45 |

| dromer | funkyHat: thnx, I was already reading up on pulseaudio | 17:49 |
| testingtrav | infinitycircuit: even if im in the right path? | 17:49 |
| the_eraser | infinitycircuit: just want general info on desktop environmetns :) | 17:49 |
| Mr_Cool59 | just says install problem when trying to run it | 17:50 |
| infinitycircuit | testingtrav: yes, you must type the full path | 17:50 |
| dromer | funkyHat: Trac detected an internal error: | 17:50 |
| infinitycircuit | you can just do ln -s $(pwd)/linux-2.6.18-xxx $(pwd)/linux | 17:50 |
| the_eraser | which DE is the fastest AND best looking? | 17:51 |
| Pici | !best | the_eraser | 17:51 |
| ubottu | the_eraser: 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. | 17:51 |
| testingtrav | infinitycircuit: hmm I tried sudo ln -s /usr/src linux-2.6.18.1 linux and it said "target linux is not a directory" | 17:51 |
| the_eraser | ok Pici i get u | 17:51 |
| Penguat | hello, could I get some help with wireless? | 17:51 |
| babolat | !wireless | Penguat | 17:52 |
| ubottu | Penguat: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs | 17:52 |
| Mr_Cool59 | side note to my problem this happened after i was trying to figure out dual display on my nvidia graphics card | 17:52 |
| dbugger | olifre: done! finally | 17:52 |
| olifre | dbugger: Yes, had to take some time ^^. Now, we need the driver.. | 17:52 |
| infinitycircuit | testingtrav: it works fine for me. ln -s /usr/src/linux-2.6.18.1 linux | 17:52 |
| NeuroExploder | can someone help me setup a FTP for my Source Dedicated Server? | 17:52 |
| olifre | dbugger: Get it here: http://ati.amd.com/support/driver.html | 17:52 |
| babolat | NeuroExploder, what seems to be the problem? | 17:53 |
| LegolasFaol | hi, how can I reset my printer? it prints continuously a line of random simbols and I don't want to restart (both) PC and printer | 17:53 |
| olifre | dbugger: its about 55 MB, so it might take some time ^^ | 17:53 |
| robthebob | how can i tell what package a file is part of? | 17:53 |
| testingtrav | infinitycircuit: thanks dude, I typed a number wrong thats why it didnt work, thank you | 17:54 |
| dbugger | olifre: luckily im on the uni, so it's already downloaded ;) | 17:54 |
| NeuroExploder | babolat, i cant figure out how to make gFTP a public FTP server for my sv_downloadurl for my SRCDS | 17:54 |
| olifre | Wow, yes, I know that ^^. | 17:54 |
| babolat | robthebob, maybe the name of the folder it's in | 17:54 |
| dbugger | olifre: what now? | 17:54 |
| olifre | open a console, enter the directory where you downloaded it, and do: chmod +x ati-driver-installer-8-5-x86.x86_64.run | 17:54 |
| olifre | odbugger: or whatever the file is named ^^. | 17:54 |
| Penguat | I looked at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/WiFiTroubleshooting | 17:55 |

| NeuroExploder | babolat, hwow | 17:56 |
| NeuroExploder | babolat, too easy. | 17:56 |
| NeuroExploder | babolat, lol thanks | 17:56 |
| olifre | dbugger: yes, might take some time, should generate around 6 .deb files. | 17:56 |

| olifre | <infinitycircuit>: Does your bluetooth-applet in gnome only show active devices? | 17:57 |
| infinitycircuit | olifre: no it shows them all | 17:57 |
| dbugger | olifre: generated 4 deb... | 17:57 |
| NeuroExploder | babolat, i have a cannont connect to host. | 17:57 |
| NeuroExploder | babolat, is it my ip i put in? | 17:57 |
| olifre | dbugger: install xorg-driver-fglrx and fglrx-kernel-source, and fglrx-amdcccle. | 17:57 |
| dbugger | from the new debs? or from apt-get? | 17:58 |
| olifre | dbugger: you only need these three. you can install with dpkg -i <debname> or in by clicking ^^. | 17:58 |
| babolat | NeuroExploder, make sure the server you're connecting to is ok | 17:58 |
| olifre | from the new debs ^^. | 17:58 |
| NeuroExploder | im trying to host it. not connecting to another. | 17:58 |
| === icqnumber__ is now known as icqnumber | ||
| babolat | oh | 17:58 |

| NeuroExploder | babolat, im using it as a download url for the server hosted on the same computer | 17:59 |
| NeuroExploder | babolat, sorry i didnt make that clear :P | 17:59 |
| dbugger | olifre: it says "error: conflict with installed xorg-driver-fglrx-envy" | 17:59 |
| olifre | aaah, you tried envy. well, then remove xorg-driver-fglrx-envy *g*. | 17:59 |
| dbugger | olifre: ok | 18:00 |
| kdubois | by default, what does ls -s spit out the file size in? | 18:00 |
| babolat | NeuroExploder, now i wouldn't know anything about that. better direct your next questions to the room | 18:00 |
| NeuroExploder | babolat, ok thanks | 18:00 |
| NeuroExploder | does anyone know how to HOST a public FTP for "Source Dedicated Server"? So that I can use sv_downloadurl on my ip? | 18:01 |
| testingtrav | i have a very stupid question.. I downloaded a recent kernel on kernel.org.. but I thought EACH distro kernel is different? and that what makes them unique? if they are all using the same linux kernel, then how come they are all so different? | 18:01 |
| capri | hi again | 18:01 |
| capri | plz tell why my windows partition dont work on kde .. they work fine on gnome | 18:01 |
| kdubois | testingtrav: many distro's patch their kernels with proprietary drivers, etc | 18:02 |
| olifre | capri: Windows shut down correctly? Try chkdsk in windows. | 18:02 |
| NeuroExploder | does anyone know how to HOST a public FTP for "Source Dedicated Server"? So that I can use sv_downloadurl on my ip? | 18:02 |
| kdubois | testingtrav: for instance, ubuntu adds madwifi support to the kernel it ships, you wont find that in a vanilla kernel | 18:02 |
| testingtrav | ohhhhhhhh | 18:02 |
| testingtrav | I understand | 18:02 |
| capri | well u r right .. but it works fine on Gnome | 18:02 |
| testingtrav | thank you kdubois, so they add like.. "flags" to the kernel to make it run like they want? | 18:03 |
| junkeR | Has anyone install 8.04 Hardy on an Everex GPC2? | 18:03 |
| olifre | dbugger: After that, we are nearly through ^^. | 18:03 |
| kdubois | testingtrav: no, they can compile it differently, or they add new code to the kernel for wider support | 18:04 |
| dbugger | olifre: done | 18:04 |
| olifre | dbugger: So, now we need to put it in the kernel ^^. | 18:04 |
| testingtrav | kdubois: is there a way to find ubuntu-kernels tars without going through apt? | 18:04 |
| olifre | dbugger: Just use the commands listed in the box below Kernelmodule einbinden | 18:05 |
| NeuroExploder | does anyone know how to HOST a public FTP for "Source Dedicated Server"? So that I can use sv_downloadurl on my ip? | 18:05 |
| infinitycircuit | testingtrav: git clone git://kernel.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ubuntu-hardy.git | 18:05 |
| capri | anyother reasons that drives are not working on kde ? | 18:06 |
| [newb]Miki | HI all, i i got a problem with my vid card drivers for this old laptop. Its running ubuntu 8.04 (lts destkop) The card is an ATI mobility 7500,. I tried some tutorials, but doesn't work :( anybody that can help? :) | 18:06 |
| kdubois | testingtrav: for compiling an ubuntu linux kernel see here https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel/Compile | 18:06 |
| dbugger | olifre: the 3rd one gave mea weird output | 18:06 |
| babolat | is a system with a 1.50gHz Intel P4 and 128MB vid.ram and 512 MB DDR supposed to take 5 seconds to open basic apps (firefox3, XChat, nvu) ? | 18:06 |
| kdubois | testingtrav: why are you compiling a custom kernel? | 18:06 |
| NeuroExploder | does anyone know how to HOST a public FTP for "Source Dedicated Server"? So that I can use sv_downloadurl on my ip? | 18:06 |
| olifre | capri: I am not using KDE, no idea ^^. | 18:06 |
| dbugger | olifre: look at it: http://pastebin.com/m47207329 | 18:07 |
| infinitycircuit | NeuroExploder: saying it 10 times will fix nothing | 18:07 |
| === fmrfirebird is now known as Synik | ||
| NeuroExploder | infinitycircuit, im looking on google now | 18:07 |
| testingtrav | thanks infinitycircuit and kdubois | 18:07 |
| NeuroExploder | infinitycircuit, this is a bot that auto pastes that in after 2-3 mins | 18:07 |
| infinitycircuit | NeuroExploder: that's about 10 times worse | 18:08 |
| kdubois | testingtrav: it is oftentimes unnecessary to compile a kernel yourself, and you can bork your system if you do it wrong, so watch out | 18:08 |
| olifre | dbugger: You installed the deb-file: fglrx-kernel-source.deb? | 18:08 |
| capri | anyone there to help me ? | 18:08 |
| dbugger | i think so, let me recheck | 18:08 |

| kdubois | jpw27_: is it a vanilla kernel? did you modify the source? | 18:09 |
| olifre | dbugger: It should now also be listed in synaptic ^^. | 18:09 |
| kdubois | [newb]Miki: go ask in #ati | 18:10 |
| kdubois | they usually know whats up | 18:10 |

| olifre | capri: what does df give you? | 18:11 |
| dbugger | olifre: it gave me this error: http://pastebin.com/m18a14a29 | 18:11 |
| jpw27_ | kdubois: no, haven't touched the source, and i've xconfig'd it before | 18:11 |
| capri | df ? | 18:11 |
| capri | didnt get anything | 18:11 |
| capri | u only said to use chkdsk | 18:11 |
| kdubois | jpw27_: try cleaning the source tree with make clean, make distclean, and then, if that fails, git reset --hard | 18:11 |
| capri | and i said that if its a disk problem then there will not drive shown on Gnome | 18:11 |
| olifre | capri: chkdsk n windows, df in KDE ^^. | 18:11 |
| kdubois | jpw27_: watch out though, that last one will revert it to the original state... | 18:12 |

| SubOne | What laptop do you guys recommend for playing WoW, browsing the net, developing websites and applications, designing graphics with gimp/inkscape and occasionally blender? | 18:16 |
| testingtrav | according to my adept manager, the most recent ubuntu kernel is linux-source-2.6.24 is that right | 18:16 |
| jpw27_ | kdubois: make clean/distclean didn't do it. "git reset --hard" is the next thing to try? | 18:16 |
| capri | i tried to connect it to ssid manually but it dont detect it | 18:16 |
| capri | and it worked fine on previous kernel | 18:16 |
| philsf | sorry, the result is in http://paste.ubuntu.com/20663/ | 18:16 |
| Mosoli | Oii | 18:17 |
| olifre | dbugger: But the last command said, it already was installed, so it should be okay. | 18:17 |
| kdubois | jpw27_: that will revert it to the original state from when you pulled. if you didnt get the source from git, it wont work | 18:17 |
| dbugger | olifre: :\\\ | 18:17 |
| capri | its on roaming | 18:17 |
| dbugger | ?_? | 18:17 |
| capri | i just checked it | 18:17 |
| olifre | dbugger: Does sudo depmod -a give you any error? If not, it should be okay. | 18:17 |
| olifre | capri: try sudo iwlist scan in console and see if it finds any networks. | 18:17 |
| dbugger | olifre: it doesnt give error | 18:17 |
| olifre | So, we shall proceed ^^. | 18:18 |

| ahmed | how are you | 18:18 |
| ahmed | i have a question | 18:18 |
| philsf | !br | Mosoli | 18:18 |
| olifre | dbugger: maybe, ati driver does something on its own now ^^. | 18:18 |
| ubottu | Mosoli: Por favor use #ubuntu-br ou #ubuntu-pt para ajuda em português. Obrigado. | 18:18 |
| IdleOne | !pt | Mosoli | 18:18 |

| IdleOne | !ask | ahmed | 18:18 |
| ubottu | ahmed: Please don't ask to ask a question, ask the question (all on ONE line, so others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely answer. :-) | 18:18 |
| ahmed | but i cant | 18:18 |
| dbugger | olifre: ?_? me completely lost :D | 18:18 |
| IdleOne | !root | ahmed | 18:18 |
| ubottu | ahmed: Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth... there is no root password. Then you will see that it is 'sudo' that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo | 18:18 |
| olifre | dbugger: Now, you need to edit. sudo gedit /etc/xorg.conf | 18:19 |
| jpw27_ | kdubois: yea okay, it's from kernel.org, and i'm pretty sure it's not an issue with the kernel because I just tested, and I get the same error with other kernels | 18:19 |
| olifre | dbugger: sorry, sudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf | 18:19 |
| dbugger | olifre: what should I change? | 18:19 |
| tayfun | how can get few extra effects for my desktop into linux ubuntu | 18:19 |
| kdubois | ahmed: if you want to log in as root, sudo su (not ubuntu's advised way but i hate not knowing the root pass) | 18:19 |
| olifre | dbugger: new ati driver just seems to have already done some work for us, that was why I was confused ^^. | 18:19 |
| jpw27_ | kdubois: it seems like something in my standard libs somewhere | 18:19 |
| capri | lo Interface doesn't support scanning. | 18:20 |

| kdubois | jpw27_: that may be the case, esp in qt | 18:20 |
| olifre | dbugger: in the device-section, what driver is selected there? | 18:20 |
| olifre | capri: So there seems to be a problem with the driver or something. | 18:20 |
| capri | hmm | 18:20 |
| kdubois | or even, looking at the compile log, it fails in /usr/include/stdlib.h ... not godo | 18:20 |
| olifre | What card are you using`? | 18:20 |
| dbugger | nothing about a driver... | 18:21 |
| capri | Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless 3945ABG Network Connection | 18:21 |
| capri | it worked fine in past | 18:21 |
| olifre | dbugger: you should have a Section "Device" somewhere. | 18:21 |
| testingtrav | according to my adept manager, the most recent ubuntu kernel is linux-source-2.6.24 is that right???? | 18:21 |
| olifre | testingtrav: yes ^^. | 18:21 |
| StyXman | capri: that's an iwl3945 | 18:21 |
| olifre | capri: yes, this one should also work in hardy. | 18:21 |
| jpw27_ | kdubois: yea, is a reinstall of Qt the next thing to try? | 18:21 |
| capri | yes | 18:21 |
| dbugger | olifre: I see the section, but there only says "Identifier"Configured Video Device"" | 18:21 |
| atlef | testingtrav: 2.6.24-19 | 18:21 |
| testingtrav | olifre, thank you | 18:21 |
| kdubois | jpw27_: perhaps. i would just do make menuconfig | 18:22 |
| capri | it worked fine in past and also on previous kernel | 18:22 |
| StyXman | capri: make sure the module is loaded in the output of lsmod | 18:22 |
| olifre | dbugger: that is interesting ^^. There shoudl be a driver-entry. so, we need to add the line. | 18:22 |
| StyXman | capri: better, try w/ "lsmod | grep 3945" | 18:22 |
| kdubois | also, kernel.org reports latest stable kernel as 2.6.25.6 | 18:22 |
| dbugger | olifre: with which value? | 18:22 |
| jpw27_ | kdubois: yea, I have been, but I have a problem having unresolved errors laying around :) | 18:22 |
| olifre | dbugger: add Driver "fglrx" just below the line you posted. | 18:22 |
| SubOne | no recommendations? | 18:22 |
| dbugger | olifre: done | 18:23 |
| soundray | olifre: hardy gets by without a driver line in xorg.conf (it's dynamically selected when the X server starts) | 18:23 |
| jpw27_ | kdubois: sound in 2.6.25 has been iffy for me, I'm using 2.6.24.7, I was just using 25.3 as an example | 18:23 |
| capri | iwl3945 89844 0 | 18:23 |
| capri | iwlwifi_mac80211 219108 1 iwl3945 | 18:23 |
| olifre | soundray: I always selected one, never tried, was fearing it would choose the legacy-driver then. | 18:23 |
| StyXman | capri: nice | 18:23 |
| soundray | olifre: (just a comment, I think you're on the right track) | 18:23 |
| dbugger | soundray: is that dinamic selection what im afraid might mess things up | 18:23 |
| olifre | carpi: looks okay. | 18:23 |
| dury | hi there channel :) | 18:24 |
| soundray | !hi | dury | 18:24 |
| ubottu | dury: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu! | 18:24 |
| capri | yea it should be coz as i said it worked fine before and also on previous kernel | 18:24 |
| StyXman | capri: now try unloading id and back on: modprobe -r iwl3945; modprobe iwl3945 | 18:24 |
| [newb]Miki | 20 minutes long nobody replying on ATI | 18:24 |
| capri | ok | 18:24 |
| TOG_away | ok, i've got the iso made. how do i mount it? or get wine to see it? | 18:24 |
| olifre | dbugger: So... You can try to reboot ^^. if things are messed up, use alt-F2 or something and use sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg | 18:24 |
| soundray | [newb]Miki: it's okay to repeat your question if you've waited this long | 18:24 |
| capri | should i restart my system ? | 18:25 |
| dbugger | olifre: here i go! i'll be back in 1 minute (hopefully) | 18:25 |
| soundray | !mountiso | TOG_away | 18:25 |
| ubottu | TOG_away: To mount an ISO disc image, type « sudo mount -o loop <ISO-filename> <mountpoint> » or use the "gmountiso" package - There is a list of useful cd image conversion tools at http://wiki.linuxquestions.org/wiki/CD_Image_Conversion - Always verify the ISO using !MD5 before !burning. | 18:25 |
| capri | to check that it will detect my wireless ssid automatically ? | 18:25 |
| StyXman | capri: that's a lasta resource | 18:25 |
| olifre | capri: Might try, but things look okay. Something seems to be blocking the card, however. | 18:25 |
| Rioting_pacifist | lsusb isnt picking up my internal usb camera anymore, is it possible for an experimental driver to actually break a usb hub? | 18:25 |
| [newb]Miki | i got a problem with my vid card drivers for this old laptop. Its running ubuntu 8.04 (lts destkop) The card is an ATI mobility 7500,. I tried some tutorials, but doesn't work :( anybody that can help? :) | 18:25 |
| kdubois | capri: make sure the hardware switch is on :) | 18:25 |
| olifre | kdubois: good idea ^^. | 18:26 |
| capri | ok :) | 18:26 |
| weigl | hey guys i cannot instal flash player :( | 18:26 |
| capri | let me try it :P | 18:26 |
| olifre | capri: you can check with dmesg | grep kill | 18:26 |
| soundray | ubottu: no, mountiso =~ s/the ISO/downloaded ISOs/ | 18:26 |
| [newb]Miki | weigl, what version of firefox? | 18:26 |
| TOG_away | what is the "mountpoint" | 18:26 |
| weigl | the starting one xD | 18:26 |
| unavailable | !mountiso | 18:26 |
| ubottu | To mount an ISO disc image, type « sudo mount -o loop <ISO-filename> <mountpoint> » or use the "gmountiso" package - There is a list of useful cd image conversion tools at http://wiki.linuxquestions.org/wiki/CD_Image_Conversion - Always verify the ISO using !MD5 before !burning. | 18:26 |
| [newb]Miki | of what ubuntu? | 18:26 |
| dury | ubuntu does a rare thing whenever I drag a folder with files in it to another folder.... all the icons disappear and comes again.. it makes a rare unusual effect. what can it be the problem? | 18:26 |
| weigl | yes of ubuntu | 18:27 |
| soundray | TOG_away: it's where you'll find the contents of the ISO once it's mounted. Try /mnt/ | 18:27 |
| kdubois | TOG_away: the mount point is the place in the filesystem where the device is put. its where the files show up, pretty much | 18:27 |
| pari | Hello, I'm trying to get the streaming video (windows media) working, stumbled upon https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/StreamingVideo , yet it doesn't work: installed win32 libraries, ubuntu-restricted-extras. totem-xine firefox and totem-gstreamer plugins are installed. Any ideas what I might be doing wrong? | 18:27 |
| TOG_away | thanks soundray | 18:27 |
| unavailable | you could also get the nautilus script to mount iso's | 18:27 |
| TOG_away | ok, so how do i figure out where iso_master put the iso | 18:27 |
| dury | weigl: you said that to me? | 18:27 |
| weigl | what did i said to you? | 18:28 |
| soundray | TOG_away: check your home directory and your desktop | 18:28 |

| jokoon | Hello, I don't really like the ubuntu theme of firefox, how can I set the classic one ? is there some place I can download it ? | 18:29 |
| dury | weigl: sorry...maybe I misunderstood | 18:29 |
| maek | jokoon, google firefox addons | 18:29 |
| maek | then click through to themes | 18:29 |
| kdubois | jokoon: you know, ubuntu uses ff3, not ff2 | 18:29 |
| soundray | jokoon: I think you need to remove the firefox-gnome-support package. You may also have to remove the ubufox extension. | 18:29 |
| dbugger | olifre: back! | 18:30 |
| Ecnerifed | does anyone know where i can reset display brightness in ubuntu? | 18:30 |
| maek | when will Firefox 3 hit the gusty repos ?? | 18:30 |
| jokoon | kdubois then what ? | 18:30 |
| kdubois | Ecnerifed: man xbacklight, read up :D | 18:30 |
| dbugger | olifre: I started in something called low-graphic mode, and i had to configure it with ATI radeon (fglrx) | 18:30 |
| Ecnerifed | ty | 18:30 |
| codecaine | clear | 18:30 |
| soundray | maek: it will go to the proposed repo very soon after the release date | 18:30 |
| kdubois | jokoon: i was just making sure that you werent expecting firefox2 | 18:30 |
| olifre | dbugger: well... does flgrxinfo output something? | 18:31 |
| jokoon | no, I'm expecting ffx3 | 18:31 |
| dbugger | olifre: same old: http://pastebin.com/m6b45a2a2 | 18:31 |
| olifre | dbugger: low-graphics-mode shows it did not load the driver, actually. | 18:32 |
| dury | soundray: what could be the problem that ubuntu does whenever I drag a folder to another place? | 18:32 |
| Codenut__ | I cannot use port 119 usenet, yet I can ping it and traceroute it. | 18:32 |

| dbugger | olifre: :_\ | 18:32 |
| Ecnerifed | kdubois, is there any gui app that i can just reset my brightness to default? | 18:32 |
| olifre | dbugger: Does lsmod | grep fglrx give you anything? | 18:33 |
| dbugger | olifre: same as before "fglrx 1674892 0" and "agpgart 34760 2 fglrx,ati_agp" | 18:33 |
| kdubois | Ecnerifed: gui? what is that? :P i think gnome's power settings might do something like that | 18:33 |
| Ecnerifed | :P | 18:34 |
| Ecnerifed | lol | 18:34 |
| olifre | dbugger: Mhhm. So it loads the module, nevertheless, which is quite peculiar. | 18:34 |
| dury | bbl | 18:34 |
| Ecnerifed | i installed xbacklight, but i just wanna reset to default not a % | 18:34 |

| Ecnerifed | i dont wanna restart the system just cause the brightness is screwed | 18:36 |
| olifre | dbugger: this might help a bit ^^. | 18:36 |

| joanki123 | can anyone recommend a really good calendar program? | 18:37 |

| saintmykill | Hello all, I have a problem and can't seem to find the solution anywhere. I saved my session under System->Preferences->Sessions->Session Options Tab->Remember Currently Running Applications. Now when I boot, Compiz won't work and it defaults to Metacity. Is there a way to clear the saved session so Ubuntu boots normally? I'm running Hardy 64-bit. | 18:37 |
| olifre | dbugger: And envy gave you no errors when trying to install? | 18:38 |
| kdubois | Ecnerifed: i dont know then, sorry... | 18:38 |
| pari | no, the streaming video is windows media format, so I'm trying to use firefox to view it. | 18:38 |
| dbugger | olifre: none that i noticed... | 18:38 |
| jude | pari: sorry, windows out of my domain :-( | 18:38 |
| olifre | dbugger: Once upon a time, there was somebody for whom the fglrx did not work at all because it was not compatible with the hardware, somehow. | 18:38 |
| olifre | dbugger: What card was it again? | 18:39 |
| pari | :/ thanks anyway | 18:39 |
| kdubois | saintmykill: add it to the on boot commands, see if that helps. also, launch through fusion icon, if possible | 18:39 |
| graydo1 | saintmykill: before logging in, in the bottom left corner there should be something called options where you can set your session to default gnome. does that solve your problem? | 18:39 |

| deliriousidoit | o_o | 18:39 |
| dbugger | olifre: my card is ati radeon Xpress 200M | 18:39 |

| lakis1982 | you didnt understand me .. i have a folder that everyone can access it through my computer but i want it everytime i double click it to ask for a password | 18:54 |
| amoebacowboy | lakis1982: chown (change owner) command to chown to your account. May cause issue with apps in folder though depending on what it is | 18:54 |
| MrCraig | Thanks ASULutzy = apparently this worked earlier but a reboot stopped it - isn't there a command required sometimes to start alsa too? | 18:54 |
| ASULutzy | the_eraser: Yea, they should be able to? | 18:54 |
| the_eraser | friin6u: THX finally someone answer me :) | 18:54 |
| connyosis | I installed ubuntu 8.04 on my amd64 box and for some reason when I plug in a usb stick it wont open when I click on it in nautilus or mount if I right click and choose mount. dmesg shows it is detected just fine, and I can mount it manually by running mount in a terminal. Is there something I can do to be able to mount it in gnome? | 18:55 |

| gd1 | hi, is there any AM2 socket motherboard which has a RAID controller that run smooth with Ubuntu x64? | 18:58 |
| amoebacowboy | WorkingOnWise: 2 dual cores. much snappier response | 18:58 |
| IdleOne | RAdams, no you don't but you are welcome | 18:58 |
| ASULutzy | WorkingOnWise: a performance increase while running in a VM? No of course not, because there's the overhead of running Ubuntu simultaneously. My Desktop has a quadcore and my laptop has a core 2 duo | 18:58 |
| soundray | [newb]Miki: envyng-gtk ? | 18:58 |
| amoebacowboy | gd1: try the abit or soyo boards | 18:58 |
| dbugger | olifre: are you sure? it's REALLY big o_O! | 18:59 |
| gd1 | is there any compatibility list? | 18:59 |
| [newb]Miki | erm yes, that was a suggestion | 18:59 |
| gd1 | I mean with builtin controllers | 18:59 |
| [newb]Miki | Cant' find envy | 18:59 |
| IdleOne | !hardware | gd1 | 18:59 |
| ubottu | gd1: For lists of supported hardware on Ubuntu see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupport - To help debugging and improving hardware detection, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingHardwareDetection | 18:59 |
| ASULutzy | WorkingOnWise: If I understood your question correctly? Obviously XP won't run faster inside a VM since it will be sharing resources with the host OS (Ubuntu) while it's running | 18:59 |
| amoebacowboy | gd1: depends on the chipset | 18:59 |

| Azzmodan | Pulseaudio, anyone know how I can set it up to always default to a network location as "Default server"? | 19:00 |
| WorkingOnWise | ASULutzy: it isnt as clear as that. SP3 is said to use ht and dual cores more efficiently, so there could indeed be a performance boost on a VM , iv the vm does true kvm, which VB does. | 19:00 |
| ijusten | now firefox doesn't start | 19:00 |

| gd1 | chipset is nForce 430 | 19:02 |
| ASULutzy | WorkingOnWise: My machine at home currently has no one logged into it. Just me through ssh. I just typed free -m and it's using around 1 GB of memory. Looking at top my CPU usage is nill, but of course, no one is logged in. If I was actually logged in and had nautilus going and a bunch of other things going, I find it very very hard to believe that any sort of VB optimizations are going to compensate that much for all that overhead | 19:02 |

| philsf | what's the best package/project to report a suspend/resume issue to: linux-source, or something else? | 19:03 |
| amy_ | Hi, I was wondering if anyone could tell me if the motherboard I'm looking at for a new PC would be ok to run Ubuntu on. It's the Intel DX38BT | 19:03 |
| RAdams | engBASA: I have to go, but try googling the name of that interface specifically with the word Ubuntu. Try checking the Ubuntu forums for this as well | 19:03 |
| WorkingOnWise | ASULutzy: the performance boot I speak of is from XP SP3 using multicors and ht cpus better. | 19:03 |
| Ahadiel | philsf, Perhaps pm-utils? I honestly don't know if that exists. | 19:04 |
| ASULutzy | WorkingOnWise: Are you asking if SP3 runs better than SP2? Because sure, I'd believe that. I thought you were suggesting that XP SP3 will run better inside of virtualbox while simultaneously running Ubuntu than it would just single booting into it. | 19:04 |
| engBASA | RAdams: ok ,thanks | 19:04 |
| bob547 | Hello , does ubuntu have some multi emails software (so i can open number of email account at the same software ?) | 19:04 |
| soundray | ASULutzy: I think the free -m output means something different from what you think it means. | 19:05 |
| ASULutzy | soundray: How do you figure? | 19:05 |
| joaopinto | bob547, yes, any email client supports multiaccount setup this days | 19:05 |
| snmpee | I am beating my head against the wall (metaphorically) because although I can get the PC to identify my nVidia proprietary driver in Hardware, the nVidia settings manager continuously says it appears I don't have it installed | 19:05 |
| chazco | Hi... what command will copy files from dir1 to dir2, but not overwrite existing ones (quicker)? | 19:05 |
| WorkingOnWise | ASULutzy: sort of. I was feeling out if XP SP3 was faster in VB than XP SP2 in VB is. If it is, I should be able to go back on Hardy full time. | 19:06 |
| joaopinto | chazco, you could use rsync for an incremental copy | 19:06 |
| snmpee | Additionally, I have edited my xorg.conf again and again to manually add my Westinghouse 22w2 monitor and I STILL get the low resolution mode wizard every time i reboot | 19:06 |
| soundray | ASULutzy: I'm not exactly sure what conclusion you're suggesting from its 1 GB memory usage, but you've got to remember that actual application memory usage is (used) minus (buffers) minus (cached) | 19:07 |
| chazco | joaopinto - Will look at it thanks | 19:07 |
| ASULutzy | WorkingOnWise: Ah ok, then yes, of course it's plausible that SP3 inside VB is faster than SP2 inside VB since SP3 is faster than SP2. I haven't done any real benchmarking, so I can't offer you any advice as far as that goes, but my XP does boot up inside the VM pretty quickly ;) | 19:07 |
| stemount^ | :) | 19:07 |
| treilanin | Would I be correct in saying that the nVidia proprietary drivers fail to support the new hot plug monitor functionality in xorg in Hardy Heron? | 19:08 |
| olifre | dbugger: im back ^^. | 19:08 |
| dbugger | olifre: wb | 19:08 |
| ASULutzy | soundray: Yea, of course I've got about 200 megs in buffers and 600 or so cached, but the point still stands that is very very improbably that an operating system will run better inside a VM than it would if it were just installed to the machine. Virutalization has come a long way, but using two operating systems and sharing resources between them certainly isn't going to boost the performance of either one | 19:08 |

| sebrock | Hi, I got a major issue with kjournald and pdflush constantly accessing my disc... tried putting "noatime" in fstab to no avail... got 1GB ram so SWAP is not the problem. Any clues? this did NOT happen in < 7.10 | 19:29 |
| csestraub | anyone using a Dell XPS 2010? | 19:29 |
| olifre | dbugger: Please also reinstall (remove and install) xserver-xorg-video-ati, libgl1-mesa-glx, libgl1-mesa-dri | 19:29 |
| Ward1983 | i cant get my virtual machines (i use virtualbox) to surf to any https location, and i don't know where it goes wrong, is there anyone that could help me trough? its most probably a firewall issue according to someone at ##vbox | 19:29 |
| Kermos | only thing that annoys me about brasero is it's annoying habit of wanting to do a MD5 sum check, too time consuming when I'm in a rush | 19:29 |
| treilanin | tico_ : Check your burning software. Sometimes they have the option to erase a disk. | 19:29 |
| Ward1983 | any ideas? | 19:29 |
| tico_ | soundray: in windows i used alcohol 120% which one do you suggest for ubuntu? | 19:29 |
| Ward1983 | the connection gets reset every time | 19:29 |
| Kermos | tico: Ubuntu comes built in with brasero, it does very well | 19:29 |
| olifre | dbugger: and please also post your xorg.conf ^^. There might be something bad in there somewhere ^^. | 19:30 |
| Ward1983 | tico_, you might like k3b aswell | 19:30 |
| dbugger | olifre: ok | 19:30 |
| tico_ | treilanin: thanks im looking for a program! (Y) | 19:30 |
| tico_ | Ward1983: thanks dude! let me try | 19:30 |
| Ward1983 | tico_, let me rephrase: you WILL like k3b :p | 19:30 |

| Ward1983 | Kermos, i tend to stay away from stuff i dont like, not names :) | 19:31 |
| Kermos | Tico: it'll still work | 19:31 |
| Pici | tico_: you can run KDE applications in gnome just fine. | 19:31 |
| dbugger | olifre: it's going to uninstall me the whole compiz thing too 270 MB... should I do it? | 19:31 |
| Ward1983 | tico_, so what? you can just instlal it... | 19:31 |
| Ward1983 | tico_, i use gnome too | 19:31 |

| Kermos | Ward: I have :) | 19:32 |
| olifre | but try to reinstall the other two ^^. | 19:32 |
| Kermos | Though I do have to say... | 19:32 |
| Pici | cannonball: you can use apt-listchanges or aptitude changelog | 19:32 |
| Ward1983 | Kermos, then you have weird taste :p | 19:32 |
| Kermos | KDE4 I did find sort of sexy.... | 19:32 |

| Kermos | ya know, on the note of flash, anyone ever have the problem where you have a flash thing playing on top of something else of the website it isn't supposed to be? | 19:36 |
| sunx | joaopinto: you think its related to thier plugin for linux? | 19:36 |
| atlef | joaopinto: haha | 19:36 |
| Kermos | or the other way around, flash content obscured by other html content? | 19:36 |
| Kl4m | Kermos, happens often | 19:36 |

| Kermos | tayfun: then ask away! | 19:37 |

| olifre | dbugger: Yes, this seems to work ^^. You can try that with the three packages. | 19:37 |
| abchirk | hi akk | 19:37 |
| sunx | joaopinto: i see thanks...i guess i will not use it or try some alternative...maybe in firefox3 instead or opera 9 | 19:37 |
| joaopinto | tayfun, the same way do for any other image, google.com | 19:37 |
| Kermos | tayfun: download them? you can use any image as your desktop background | 19:37 |
| Kermos | tayfun: where you get them from is all up to you | 19:37 |
| joaopinto | sunx, if the problem is plugin specific changing the browser will not help, but it doesn't hurt to try | 19:38 |
| tayfun | yeah but i want to make it like this add to panel get new pictures and get download | 19:38 |
| dbugger | olifre: reinstall done | 19:38 |

| olifre | dbugger: i found some posts saying that ati had not released enough specs for the card to make direct rendering possible. However, those were in May 2007.... | 19:38 |
| joaopinto | tayfun, maybe you are looking for webilder, an applet which fetches images from popular sites | 19:39 |
| tayfun | yeah | 19:39 |
| olifre | Mhhm. You might just try to start compiz now, using compiz --replace. | 19:39 |
| tayfun | can u help me joapinto | 19:39 |

| atlef | pulseaudio is not ready | 19:41 |
| Kermos | yea that is one reason why I want Ibex...I hope they have pulse audio sorted out there | 19:41 |
| dbugger | this is exactly how it was when i upgraded to hardy. To get rid of the sludgyness i had to remove xserver-somethings... | 19:41 |

| ASULutzy | Any idea why the tool that updates my grub menu.lst breaks my machine every single time I update the kernel? It's not a hard fix, but for some reason it just does not want to correctly configure my menu.lst... Should I file a bug report? (I'm using software raid-1) | 19:44 |
| olifre | dbugger: Yes, and if it does not work then, I am out of ideas :( | 19:44 |

| Agu10 | I am in ubuntu hardy live CD. In the Gparted, i cant find the option to put the mont point name | 19:45 |

| dbugger | imback! | 19:45 |
| Agu10 | ar you reading me? | 19:45 |
| Kermos | abchirk: That all depends on you. When you use alpha/beta software, *expect* things to break and be pleasantly surprised when they don't. | 19:46 |
| olifre | dbugger: glxinfo outputting something different? | 19:46 |
| abchirk | Agu10 yes | 19:46 |
| jrib | abchirk: they're usually safe. But of course they can introduce new bugs. That's the first place to look if you feel you need newer versions of software | 19:46 |
| olifre | dbugger: compiz faster? | 19:46 |
| Agu10 | so... | 19:46 |
| Agu10 | I see the video tutorial, and it is different to mine | 19:46 |
| Agu10 | i believe | 19:46 |
| dbugger | olifre: glxinfo is too big to see any difference :) | 19:46 |
| Kermos | abchirk: If you don't have a problem dealing with a potentially broken system or software, go for it. | 19:46 |
| abchirk | hm ok, I used long time Debian SID and for me there were no "real" bugs... :) | 19:46 |

| Kermos | abchirk: Sure there is, you can always go burn a Hardy CD and reinstall | 19:47 |
| Kermos | I have no idea how reliably, if at all, downgrading the repositories would work out | 19:47 |
| abchirk | hehe Ok I guessed without reinstall from CD. | 19:48 |
| dbugger | olifre: as suspected, same as before | 19:48 |
| dbugger | olifre: when i turn on compiz, everything is white (even though not crashed) | 19:48 |
| jrib | Kermos: not very :) | 19:48 |
| Agu10 | can you help me??? | 19:48 |
| olifre | dbugger: Mhhm. Then, I am somehow out of ideas... so you need xserver-xgl, and it only does software-rendering. | 19:48 |
| olifre | dbugger: Did you use fglrx in gutsy?` | 19:48 |
| Kermos | Personally I'm setup to where I can switch Ubuntu versions in less than 2 hours. Basically the time it takes for the installer to complete and my setup script to execute and download packages and put everything the way I like it. | 19:49 |
| dbugger | In gutsy i never needed to investigate this... so i dont know... it just worked automatically :S | 19:49 |
| Agu10 | heey | 19:49 |
| Agu10 | i cant install linux | 19:49 |
| olifre | dbugger: Was there any "restricted drivers" dialog? | 19:49 |
| dbugger | i do remember that in gutsy i needed xserver-xgl to get compiz | 19:49 |
| Agu10 | i will use windows then | 19:49 |
| Agu10 | or mac | 19:49 |
| Kermos | Aug10: what is the problem? | 19:49 |
| abchirk | Ok thx Kermos and jrib, I will stay with hardy now :P | 19:49 |
| hiptobecubic | Kermos, what setup script? | 19:49 |
| olifre | dbugger: Ah, that is something. Then, I am wondering why it is so much slower.... | 19:50 |
| dbugger | olifre: yes it was, the same i have here. The difference was that in gutsy when i activated it, and rebooted, everything worked, not like here that i get a BLACK crash screen | 19:50 |
| Agu10 | i am in the GParted, and i cant find the option to put a mont name to the new partitions i am making | 19:50 |
| Kermos | hiptobecubic: My own little script that sets up my custom repositories (wine / medibuntu) and just runs a few apt-get's to get all the things I need without me needing to remember or do it manually | 19:50 |
| Agu10 | so | 19:50 |
| Agu10 | will you help me?? | 19:50 |
| Kermos | Agu10: that's probably because you don't do that from gparted | 19:50 |
| === sean is now known as seanw | ||
| Agu10 | from where do i do it? | 19:51 |
| Kermos | From the installer | 19:51 |
| Abatrour | Could anyone tell me how to mount my usb harddrive to a fixed mount point? | 19:51 |
| Agu10 | oh | 19:51 |
| Kermos | gparted is just a partition editor | 19:51 |
| Kermos | it does not care where you mount the partitions | 19:51 |
| jrib | Agu10: you can use e2label in a shell (if you are using ext as the filesystem) | 19:51 |
| Abatrour | the device id (sdc1 etc) changes every time i plug it in | 19:51 |
| olifre | dbugger: I am just wondering... with restricted drivers, it should have used fglrx, and we installed the newest fglrx before, and it did not work. | 19:51 |
| Agu10 | so i do the partition, and then in the installer i put the mont name? | 19:51 |
| Kermos | Yea, matter of fact, you can do all the partition setup from within the installer too | 19:51 |
| Kermos | no need to mess with gparted really | 19:52 |

| icecube1234 | any help | 19:52 |
| jrib | Agu10: I explained how to set a label, not sure if that is what you are asking | 19:52 |
| ASULutzy | Agu10: Last time I installed Hardy I basically hit <next> a bunch of times... lol | 19:52 |
| jrib | icecube1234: what are you compiling? | 19:52 |
| olifre | dbugger: Maybe something is finally broken in the newer ati-driver, and for hardy, you need a new one. A last ressort might be to ask in #ati | 19:52 |
| Agu10 | in GParted i make my partitions and then in the installers i put the name and mount name | 19:52 |
| icecube1234 | jrib :kaffeine plugin | 19:52 |
| Kermos | Agu10: don't even worry about gparted, you can do it all from within the installer in one step | 19:52 |
| Intell | back, just got off phone with 1stchoicememory, they are shipping out replacement chips. | 19:52 |
| Agu10 | so, what do you reccomend me to partition? i mean how many to what | 19:52 |
| dbugger | olifre: everything worked pretty well in gutsy except for the fact that when i jacked the headphones in, the speakrs didnt mute :) | 19:53 |
| candyglf | after I recompiled a new kernel with my nvidia glxinfo suddently doesnt work anymore "glXCreateContext failed" | 19:53 |
| ASULutzy | Agu10: Are you going to be dual-booting? Or is this machine just for Ubuntu? | 19:53 |
| dbugger | olifre: already tried in ati... no good :( | 19:53 |
| Agu10 | dual | 19:53 |
| olifre | dbugger: I just ran out of ideas, as we tried both drivers there are, and radeon-open-source-driver (the one you have now) does not turn on direct rendering => slow. and fglrx did not load, whyever, I think this one might have a problem. | 19:53 |
| Kermos | Agu10: usually I'll do one partition for / (root), around 20 gigs or so but less is also fine and then one more partition for /home (remainder of HD space) | 19:53 |
| Agu10 | I have windows XP too | 19:53 |
| Chousuke | candyglf: did you also recompile the nvidia driver module? | 19:53 |
| Abatrour | does anyone know how to make my external harddrive have a fixed mount point? | 19:53 |
| jrib | icecube1234: it is in the repositories. No need to compile- | 19:53 |
| olifre | dbugger: Yes, ati is quite... silent. | 19:53 |
| ASULutzy | Agu10: Then don't erase your NTFS partition. You're going to want to steal space from your NTFS partition and make an ext3 partition and a swap partition | 19:53 |
| ASULutzy | And then you install Ubuntu to the ext3 partition | 19:54 |

| Abatrour | i set up fstab for sdc1, but as soon as i restart the computer the drive changes to something like sdd1 | 19:54 |
| jrib | icecube1234: however, if you ever actually do need to compile, you need to install the build-essential plugin | 19:54 |
| jrib | icecube1234: s/plugin/package. What is "sc"? | 19:54 |
| candyglf | Chousuke: yeah | 19:54 |
| Agu10 | so, 20 GB for "/" , 2 GB for swap, and what about the "/home" ? | 19:54 |
| ASULutzy | Agu10: Alternatively, if you're just trying Ubuntu out and don't really know if you really want to use it or not, you can install Ubuntu using wubi, which basically installs Ubuntu inside a file in Windows | 19:54 |
| icecube1234 | jrib: softcam for dvb | 19:54 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Abatrour See the message from ubottu | 19:54 |
| dbugger | the biggest problem for people using linux it's not "being complicated", it's the problem with hardware support | 19:54 |
| jrib | icecube1234: oh, ok | 19:54 |

| ASULutzy | Agu10: You don't necessarily need a separate home partition, I don't have one and I get by alright... Though having a separate /home partition can make distro upgrades go more smoothly | 19:55 |
| Chousuke | candyglf: I don't know :/ | 19:55 |
| RedLXXXIV | what up y'all?!?! | 19:55 |
| Agu10 | i want to have ubuntu well installed and fast and strong, dont want to just "try" it. | 19:55 |
| RedLXXXIV | Red 84 up in the hizz-0 | 19:55 |
| olifre | dbugger: So I am sorry, but I have no solution :(. | 19:55 |
| pen | is there an Workspace Switcher like in fluxbox? | 19:55 |
| pen | in gnome? | 19:55 |
| ASULutzy | Agu10: then yea, I dunno, the sizes of the partitions is really up to you and how much space you actually have to use | 19:55 |
| dbugger | olifre: I guess i'll wait for ubuntu 8.4.1... meanwhile, i'll switch back to gutsy | 19:56 |
| ASULutzy | Agu10: You don't need a /home partition but a lot of people really like having them | 19:56 |
| tritium | pen: naturally | 19:56 |
| candyglf | Chousuke: oh well thanks anyways its just weird | 19:56 |
| Kermos | Well the advantage of having a separate /home partition is that you can do a OS reinstall or install a different version of ubuntu without affecting your data in /home | 19:56 |
| Abatrour | cool, so all i have to do is find the uuid, and then put that in fstab instead of the sdc1 | 19:56 |
| icecube1234 | jrib: im trying whats on the site thanks | 19:56 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Abatrour yes | 19:56 |
| Agu10 | I want to install a lot of programs, I have my documents on another disk | 19:56 |
| pen | tritium, what do you mean | 19:56 |
| olifre | dbugger: Yes, might be a good decision, I would not like to live without 3d (have a nvidia here in my laptop,. works fine). | 19:56 |
| Abatrour | the ubuntu developers really need to make ubuntu do that automatically | 19:56 |
| tritium | pen: yes, gnome has a workspace switcher | 19:56 |
| Agu10 | I have 60 GB free to use | 19:56 |
| ASULutzy | Agu10: This isn't really a decision we can make for you. It's up to you how much space you want to give Ubuntu | 19:56 |
| Abatrour | or else the novice would never figure it out | 19:56 |
| Agu10 | ok | 19:57 |
| Abatrour | i mean even windows 2000 does it, and thats old as hell | 19:57 |
| dbugger | anyway, thank you for your patience. Anything I can do for you? :D | 19:57 |
| pen | tritium, I mean the one like in fluxbox the slit? | 19:57 |
| tritium | pen: I'm unfamiliar with fluxbox | 19:57 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Abatrour Was that external drive plugged in during the install | 19:57 |
| Agu10 | so, i put 20 GB for "/" , 10 GB for "/home" and 2 GB for "swap". is it ok? | 19:57 |
| pen | tritium, ok | 19:57 |
| olifre | dbugger: Well, my ubuntu runs quite fine :P. I think, I'll now lean back and watch some soccer ^^. Maybe we shall meet again here sometime again ^^. | 19:57 |
| pen | is there an Workspace Switcher like in fluxbox slit in gnome? | 19:57 |
| ASULutzy | Agu10: How much ram do you have? | 19:57 |
| dbugger | good then | 19:57 |
| dbugger | in that case im headed to eat :) | 19:58 |
| dbugger | bye bye! | 19:58 |
| dbugger | and thanky ou agaiN! | 19:58 |
| olifre | So, all have a nice evening, bye bye ^^. | 19:58 |
| jrib | icecube1234: the reason for your error is the lack of the build-essential package | 19:58 |
| tritium | pen: regardless of what slit is like, gnome has a workspace switcher | 19:58 |

| * Agu10 waits ikonia for an answer :P | 20:29 | |
| Almindor | icecube1234, install libqt4-dev | 20:29 |
| Sun01Tech | airstrikeivanov: how this this start to happen? | 20:29 |
| bart__ | *afraid to ask a question | 20:30 |
| icecube1234 | Almindor: thanks | 20:30 |
| infinitycircuit | airstrikeivanov, i have an ICH4 bridge with that sound card and no problems here | 20:30 |
| airstrikeivanov | Don't know. Sound worked the first time. After a reboot, ever since there's no sound. | 20:30 |
| Almindor | icecube1234, it's always missing -dev files for these things, althought not all are packaged | 20:30 |
| Almindor | airstrikeivanov, check if you're using ALSA (in the system/preferences/audio) | 20:30 |
| geekytechguy | bobJR: try vsftpd, i use that one for my server, but it doesn't have a gui | 20:31 |
| Sun01Tech | airstrikeivanov: did you install or change anyting before reboot? any updates? | 20:31 |
| Almindor | airstrikeivanov, make sure the outputs are set right (ALSA or ESD if you have it on) | 20:31 |
| glitsj16 | bart__: what seems to be the trouble ? the worst that can happen is that nobody can help, give it a shot | 20:31 |
| bart__ | Anyone know how to make dmraid work on hardy? | 20:31 |
| airstrikeivanov | says ALSA in the control panel | 20:31 |
| airstrikeivanov | But no sound comes out when I hit test | 20:31 |

| salah | Hi. Is there any ways to make it possible for two applications to use the sound at once? I have to quit firefox each time I use for example rhythmbox and quit rhythmbox for using sound (flash) in firefox... | 20:31 |
| Agu10 | ikonia: are you there? Do i have to format the partitions i will use? | 20:31 |
| ikonia | Agu10: yes you do | 20:32 |
| waffe | salah: yes. first of all are you using pulse? | 20:32 |
| Agu10 | oh | 20:32 |
| Agu10 | and the swap one too? | 20:32 |
| RedLXXXIV | ugh. I don't want to clean install Gutsy over Hardy. | 20:32 |
| Pulseaudio | can anyone help me with pulseaudio? the pulseaudio sound options disappeared from system->preferences->sound/ | 20:32 |
| Agu10 | ikonia: and the swap partition too??? | 20:32 |
| bart__ | I've trying the entire day to make dmraid work, but I keep getting the same error over and over ... | 20:32 |
| salah | waffe, no I don't know what that is | 20:32 |
| ikonia | Agu10: yes | 20:32 |
| airstrikeivanov | I have it set up to use ALSA but still no sound. | 20:32 |
| Almindor | salah, yes, depending on situation, in many ways | 20:33 |
| Agu10 | ikonia: there is not the option to format the swap partition! | 20:33 |
| glitsj16 | bart__: could it have to do with this bug for dmraid ? https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/hardy/+source/dmraid/+bug/221824 (there's a fix inside) | 20:33 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 221824 in dmraid "dmraid 1.0.0.rc14-0ubuntu3 crashes on install" [Undecided,Fix released] | 20:33 |
| Almindor | waffe, pulse is broken by design atm | 20:33 |
| ikonia | Agu10: it should do it for you | 20:33 |
| Eeinn | Is there any way I can get evolution to work with Exchange 2007 without using imap? | 20:33 |
| waffe | Almindor: i have it working great at the mo | 20:33 |
| Almindor | waffe, best is to uninstall the whole thing, fixed loads of problems for me | 20:33 |
| Agu10 | ikonia: but i cant select the format input | 20:33 |
| salah | Almindor, yes, how do I fix this thing then? | 20:33 |
| Agu10 | ikonia: is it ok too? | 20:33 |
| * Almindor had major trouble with pulse and openal | 20:33 | |
| waffe | just not bluetooth :) | 20:33 |
| ikonia | Agu10: I'm sure it will be fine | 20:34 |
| Almindor | salah, well, ALSA by default should provide dmix in the version in hardy, but pulse and/or other apps can still hog the snd card | 20:34 |
| airstrikeivanov | Anyone know how to fix my sound? I have an "Intel Corporation 82801EB/ER (ICH5/ICH5R) AC'97 Audio Controller (rev 02)" and it is set to use ALSA. | 20:34 |
| Almindor | salah, for me, flash/normal gnome/vlc/most games play fine together if I use pure ALSA | 20:34 |
| salah | should I install dmix? | 20:34 |
| Almindor | dmix is already installed | 20:34 |
| cxo | Whats wrong with the vim in ubuntu? | 20:34 |
| Almindor | it's part of ALSA now | 20:34 |
| cxo | it looks like vi, not vim | 20:35 |
| Pulseaudio | I have a similar problem where I can't use pulseaudio atm | 20:35 |
| Almindor | salah, set your sound to ALSA output in system/preferences/audio | 20:35 |
| salah | Almindor, alright, will try | 20:35 |
| Pulseaudio | pulseaudio shows "connection refused" when attempting to connect to the device | 20:35 |
| Almindor | salah, I also turn off the ESD/pulse server (2nd tab) | 20:35 |
| The_racer550 | i have instaled a desktop theme but my desktop look`s the same | 20:35 |
| airstrikeivanov | Why do I have no sound on my "Intel Corporation 82801EB/ER (ICH5/ICH5R) AC'97 Audio Controller (rev 02)"? | 20:36 |
| Almindor | salah, to be sure I actually uninstalled the whole pulseaudio thing, also make sure you don't have some old/commercial crap which hogs via OSS | 20:36 |
| Almindor | airstrikeivanov, too little info | 20:36 |
| airstrikeivanov | Well you guys started helping then stopped talking altogether | 20:36 |
| airstrikeivanov | I have no idea what else to put down | 20:36 |
| Sun01Tech | airstrikeivanov: did you install or change anyting before reboot? any updates? | 20:36 |
| airstrikeivanov | Nope | 20:36 |
| Killeroid | The_racer550: you need to specifically select the theme to use it | 20:36 |
| Almindor | airstrikeivanov, there's a way to see if ALSA or OSS is used by a program, but I forgot the exacts | 20:37 |
| salah | Almindor, ok, I have a lot of sound cards here: HDA Intel (Alsa mixer), Realtek ALC268 (OSS Mixer), ALSA PCM on front:0, what should I choose? | 20:37 |
| Almindor | airstrikeivanov, it's done via /proc | 20:37 |
| Sun01Tech | airstrikeivanov: you said it was working the first time....did you just install hard heron? | 20:37 |
| Almindor | salah, use ALSA | 20:37 |
| airstrikeivanov | Yeah, it's a fresh install | 20:37 |
| askand | How do I transform an ubuntu desktop installation to a serverinstallation? What should I remove? | 20:37 |
| ikonia | askand: don't remove anything | 20:38 |
| Almindor | airstrikeivanov, run alsamixer and look if there's any [MM] (means muted) | 20:38 |
| askand | ikonia: why is that? | 20:38 |
| waffe | salah: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HdaIntelSoundHowto | 20:38 |
| geekytechguy | askand: just do sudo tesksel install lamp-server | 20:38 |
| The_racer550 | i have download it from freshmeat.net and instal it ,but it does not work | 20:38 |
| airstrikeivanov | Almindor: The only thing that's muted is Headphone | 20:38 |
| geekytechguy | thats installs the LAMP server files | 20:38 |

| leato | wiseman: if you liked xfce, you'll love enlightenment | 21:37 |
| gnomefreak | wiseman: Windows buys licenses from comapnys to get drivers for <hardware> that is why it costs so much, it is impossible to compare Linux with Windows | 21:37 |

| ubottu | Xubuntu is Ubuntu with Xfce instead of !GNOME. More info at http://www.xubuntu.org and http://wiki.ubuntu.com/Xubuntu/ - To install from Ubuntu: « sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop » - Join #xubuntu for support - See also: !Ubuntu and !Xubuntu-Channels | 21:37 |

| ubottu | Enlightenment (or "E") is a window manager for X, providing a useful, and good looking graphical shell in which to work. E17 is the current development version. | 21:37 |

| ubottu | leato: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome! | 21:37 |
| gnomefreak | rohan: go ahead send it now ill save it | 21:37 |
| rohan | gnomefreak: ok ;) | 21:37 |
| wiseman | gnomefreak: the webcam works fine. I can see myself and everything. i was just saying it's clearly not a hardware issue | 21:38 |
| SymbianDJ | any1 know bout Xorg around here as to why there are 2 processes always running, one dependant on the other | 21:38 |
| gnomefreak | bogey-: is there a reason that you sent !offtopic to leato ? | 21:38 |
| leato | ubottu: E runs well on ubuntu! it's just another option :( isnt that the idea? multiple options? | 21:38 |
| ubottu | leato: Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 21:38 |
| swirv | How was leato offtopic? | 21:38 |
| leato | :P | 21:38 |
| gnomefreak | wiseman: most issues are caused by drivers (depending on the drivers used) | 21:38 |
| leato | swirv: got me | 21:38 |
| jon_high9000 | shawnr34: hi. can you show me the (repository) link in private? i am not certain if doing it out in the open will get you into trouble or no. | 21:38 |
| bogey- | gnomefreak: because as the offtopic shows we are here to support people, not chat about things we like i think? | 21:39 |
| neurobuntu | So i guess my ALT keys aren't working either, I've pulled up xev and neither key presse register like it should | 21:39 |

| leato | gnomefreak: my bad, sorry | 21:39 |
| wiseman | gnomefreak: a driver issue will prevent me from even being able to close a program? | 21:39 |
| Simulous | Hey | 21:39 |
| gnomefreak | bogey-: i only saw him play with bot. sorry if i missed something | 21:39 |
| wiseman | gnomefreak: I cannot even close cheese. it won't die. the video is getting in there, it just refuses to do anything productive once it's recorded. | 21:39 |
| swirv | blizzkid hit CTRL+ALT+F1 | 21:39 |
| gnomefreak | wiseman: yes if it loops due to code in driver | 21:39 |

| hellues | hey | 21:40 |

| bogey- | wiseman: ps aux << shows all running processes | 21:41 |

| maynard | hi... i have installed a program with synaptic but i can't find it... how can i do? | 21:44 |
| rohan | fadi: i don't remember, but i think there is a "Compile" function in the "Build" menu or so | 21:45 |
| Choicefresh | the other method i tried was sudo apt-get install paint-mono, but it depends on mono-tools-locales which is not installable | 21:45 |
| wiseman | gnomefreak: when it crashes, there's a bug report thing and it tells me to look in /docs/html but I don't know where the hell that is | 21:45 |
| leato | maynard: remember the name of it? type it in a terminal and see what happens (you can always use tab key to search commands) | 21:45 |
| fadi | rohan look | 21:45 |
| gnomefreak | wiseman: there are other ways to kill processes some processes you wouldnt want to use kill -9 instead you may want to use killall cheese or whatever apps it is | 21:45 |

| gnomefreak | wiseman: not that im aware of maybe it will make it once you compile it with the --enable-debug but you dont want to do that if you can avoid it. Please file a bug report at bugs.launchpad.net on Mplayer with the errors you get and version of mplayer version of ubuntu and what arch you are using by giving the output of uname -a onto the bug report. this way the people that need to look at it will be subscribed and more helpful with more info | 21:55 |
| gnomefreak | give | 21:55 |
| leato | maynard: U could search for the package name on synaptic and see it's properties.. will tell you where all it's files are.. just look for the line that says sth like /usr/bin/APPNAME, that has to be its path | 21:56 |
| rohan | Choicefresh: i think some other ppa repo might provide it | 21:56 |
| maynard | leato: ok... thanks again | 21:56 |

| bogey- | !keytouch | slayton | 22:03 |
| ubottu | slayton: Keyboard shortcuts can be set in System -> Preferences -> Keyboard Shortcuts. If your multimedia keys don't work with that, try the 'keytouch' package, explained at http://keytouch.sourceforge.net - See !Keyboard for changing layouts | 22:03 |
| TuniX12 | Ward1983: totem uses ALSA server but flash uses OSS so you should close other multimedia client before playng flash | 22:03 |
| serwou | SymbianDJ: THANKS : xorg fixed from the rescue mode | 22:03 |
| jpw27_ | is there any easy way to undo upgrades? because I just upgraded some packages and it majorly broke some things | 22:03 |
| === belay is now known as BeLaY | ||
| SymbianDJ | Aw0L: no it doesn't it can be installed onto the vista drive | 22:03 |
| Ward1983 | TuniX12, OSS doesnt work here :( | 22:03 |
| Ward1983 | TuniX12, i duno why, i use optical SPDIF and it seems to be hard to setup for me | 22:03 |
| slayton | bogey- it worked, but I ran dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg it screwed up my video card so I restored my xorg.conf and then reset the settings like you said in keyboard and it didn't work | 22:04 |
| Ward1983 | in OSS | 22:04 |
| SymbianDJ | serwou: great.. but i think you would be using MESA - so no 3D for compiz incase u use it | 22:04 |
| Aw0L | SymbianDJ, vista drive? so...for a manual partition all I need is a root partition and a swap correct? | 22:04 |
| TuniX12 | Ward1983: cause oss cant access the sound device | 22:04 |
| EvilDennisR | Aw0L: correct | 22:04 |
| Ward1983 | TuniX12, how can i solve that? | 22:04 |
| SymbianDJ | Aw0L: i don't know how the vista thing works . havent tried it myself but if otherwise yes | 22:04 |
| orudie | EvilDennisR i'm in /var/log/ which file should i check ? | 22:04 |
| Aw0L | EvilDennisR, Thanks | 22:05 |
| serwou | SymbianDJ: you are right, this allow me to see if the laptop is still unstable without ATI driver | 22:05 |
| EvilDennisR | Aw0L: If you're installing ubuntu onto a drive that already has an existing OS on it, you will need to resize said drive into two partitions | 22:05 |

| TuniX12 | Ward1983: go to sound manager and choose alsa with oss emulation or something like this i'm not under ubuntu now | 22:05 |
| Aw0L | EvilDennisR, thanks - just want to make sure I don't need a separate boot - I'll install other OS's later | 22:05 |
| orudie | EvilDennisR that pruduced a lot of output, not sure what to look at | 22:06 |
| SymbianDJ | EvilDennisR: do you really need to create another partition ? cause HArdy has an option to install itslef even when you are using vista | 22:06 |
| wiseman | Tested with sound recorder, That doesn't record any sound either. | 22:06 |
| EvilDennisR | SymbianDJ: Yes, that resizes the existing partition and creats another | 22:06 |
| EvilDennisR | orudie: Check dmesg and syslog then | 22:07 |

| Ward1983 | TuniX12, it crashes for no apperant reason | 22:11 |
| Aw0L | thanks anyway! | 22:11 |
| EvilDennisR | DrX: whats in /etc/fstab | 22:11 |
| Ward1983 | TuniX12, its just ubuntu | 22:11 |
| EvilDennisR | DrX: I believe gnome just displays what is actually mounted | 22:12 |
| EvilDennisR | but I'm not certain.. | 22:12 |
| Ward1983 | TuniX12, (which is why i switch to debian as soon as i have the time to format) | 22:12 |
| TuniX12 | Ward1983: check the logs to see what's the problem | 22:12 |

| orudie | EvilDennisR is there a way to search text in those files containing mysql , like a command ? | 22:21 |
| joaopinto | adude, depends on how you have it installed, if it was from the Add/remove, just go to there and remove | 22:21 |
| EvilDennisR | jokoon: Is this firefox from a package, or firefox you downloaded from mozilla.org ? | 22:21 |
| Ward1983 | TuniX12, omfg lol it doesnt even respond to the power button anymore... gonna have to hold it... | 22:21 |

| Gun_Smoke | ramboza, No, and you only need to run it once.. Just because you don't see the icon in the tray doesn't mean it's not working.. It should start at boot. | 22:25 |

| TuniX12 | TimMatrix: the GUI is a seprate project | 22:27 |
| HardDisk | adude, also rm your .gimp-2.2 or .gimp-2.4 and try again | 22:27 |

| orudie | EvilDennisR mysql.err and mysql.log are empty | 22:28 |

| === FRiEd|BnC is now known as FriedCPU | ||
| threexk | when I move things to Trash they are deleted. Does anyone know why this might happen? | 22:33 |
| TuniX12 | TimMatrix: and check this too http://www.ubuntu-unleashed.com/search/label/Privacy%20And%20Security | 22:34 |
| EvilDennisR | threexk: check your preferences in nautilus | 22:34 |
| adude | OK gimp works when i start up in a command line from the home directory | 22:35 |
| threexk | EvilDennisR: I did. "Include a Delete command that bypasses Trash" is unchecked, and "Ask before emptying the Trash or deleting files" is checked | 22:35 |
| threexk | EvilDennisR: actually I see all my files in ~/.Trash.. I just don't see them in Nautilus when I browse Trash | 22:35 |
| TimMatrix | TuniX12: Hey, thanks for the cool website, Ubuntu Unleashed. That's interesting stuff in there. Have bookmarked it. :) | 22:36 |

| maconga | i know this is totally non ubuntu,but has anyone lost msn ??? | 22:36 |
| threexk | EvilDennisR: It seems to be moving them to .Trash, so not deleting them. But I should be able to see the files in Nautilus though, no? | 22:36 |

| joaopinto | Mr_Bad_News, .3gp is not supported because it requires a codec which is illegal in some countries, so it is disabled on most ubuntu utilities | 23:06 |

| tanlaan | because if I restart X with ctrl-alt-backspace it will come up normal, I can then try and log in and then it black screens, tries going back to the login but it says that it is crashing | 23:36 |
| Jack_Sparrow | tanlaan Basic information to help us help you: Which distro/release are you using, have you modified your sources.list, have you compiled programs from source, Is this a regular install or are you running in some sort of virtual machine or did you install with wubi etc? | 23:36 |
| TuniX12 | HardDisk: no | 23:36 |
| EvilDennisR | SymbianDJ: If I recall correctly, if you're using fglrx it spawns another x server while gdm keep running one | 23:36 |
| HardDisk | TuniX12, don't say no. | 23:36 |
| EvilDennisR | SymbianDJ: Is it an issue that its running two sessons? | 23:36 |
| tanlaan | I am doing either nothing or just normal things. 8.04, compaq presario f572us, only compiled my bcmx firmware for my wireless card, and I actually installed the packages for ubuntu studio but it was doing this before I had done that | 23:37 |
