| Flannel | tikihead: sudo apt-get install xserver-xorg | 00:28 |
| sam_delta | el1te but you can install it yourself, then remake live cD? mayb recompile the kernel duno | 00:28 |
| IanXX_ | Slart:ok | 00:28 |
| jrib | IanXX_: if you want to use suspend, I believe you'll need as much swap as ram | 00:28 |
| Slart | pen: well.. there are some documentation.. at least there was when I searched for it about a year ago.. but it wasn't much | 00:28 |

| ads_ | ive removed firefox using apt.. i still have the firefox icon on my gnome panel and when i click i get "Firefox is already running, but is not responding.

| RabidLockerGnome | spdf, i've reloaded it correctly, but it still fails with tvtime | 01:07 |
| jrib | !xmms =~ s/Concider/Consider/ | 01:07 |
| IndyGunFreak | kelvin: i don't think so, its more related to constantly getting kicked off or having a bad connection. | 01:07 |
| ubottu | I'll remember that jrib | 01:07 |
| ^Ocean^ | i installed xmms but i dont much feel like a console mp3 player ahaha | 01:07 |

| IndyGunFreak | kelvin: sorry I don't, i have very limited wireless experience, and its more related to madwifi and Atheros. | 01:08 |

| kelvin | IndyGunFreak: Ok no problem thanks for your help | 01:09 |
| ^Ocean^ | well ill check out audatios | 01:09 |

| ubottu | kelvin maybe this will help: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs | 01:09 |

| Griz | Hey Gang. What package(s) have the DYMO LabelWritter 400 drivers/ppds??? | 01:39 |
| edj | trying to setup wireless - atheros chipset, ar242x - with ndiswrapper. ran -i on the inf file, then -l shows ath_pci as alternate driver. it's blacklisted in /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist. no ath module is loaded. where's that alternate driver coming from? | 01:39 |
| katharos | glitsj16, i tried to remove it with apt-get, but i just got an error | 01:39 |
| Poprocks | crusher: yeah but what's slow about it - the GUI, or does it load webpages slowly | 01:40 |
| davers | oh, okay. well, i installed ubuntu first, on a tiny 8gb partition. then i installed vista on top of that in a separate 50gb partition. and i just finished loading a backup of my winxp install onto a 40gb partition. in my most recent boot, before i restored winxp, all i had was the vista bootloader, which jets straight into vista. and my question is this: what's the best way to go about installing a multi-OS bootloader at this point? i don't ahve | 01:40 |
| Griz | or, how do I FIND out which files have the DYMO LabelWritter 400 drivers/ppds? | 01:40 |

| hiptobecubic^ | Jester45, i have the nvidia drivers manually installed. the cpu issue is new. as in this boot only. infact it has gone back to normal. but why would it be running at 50-60 for ten minutes without any intensive processes running? and why did it stop? | 01:42 |
| spoon_man | crusher, it may be that your video card acceleration is not enabled, I dunno | 01:42 |

| offline | if i install wine on my machine, to which directory does it instaal itself? coz im confused by the Drive letter on wine, looks like on win | 01:43 |
| Poprocks | crusher: interesting, ok so it seems like more of an ubuntu networking problem rather than mozilla specifically - video card accel won't help there, but it's a good thing to have enabled anyway, for other reasons | 01:44 |
| Flannel | offline: It installs itself to ~/.wine/ | 01:44 |
| crusher | I don't have problems with speed doing other things on the ubuntu systems...its just surfing the net | 01:44 |
| jrib | offline: dpkg -L wine will tell you. When you install programs in wine, they end up in ~/.wine/ | 01:44 |
| Flannel | offline: and, inside of there, you'll see ~/.wine/drive_c/ Which is wine's C drive. It looks like windows, because the programs think they're running in windows | 01:44 |

| rampage73 | Jericho, go to terminal and hit tab key twice and answer y | 01:49 |
| rampage73 | also help works | 01:49 |
| hiptobecubic^ | linuxguymarshall, just make sure it says that outside connections are authorized and you probably want to make sure that you have password protection on. do you have a computer you can test it on? | 01:50 |

| linuxguymarshall | tstiffler88:I think there is some command to do it but I dont know it. Make a new account from the terminal and log in | 01:52 |

| linuxguymarshall | hiptocubic^:I have tried on my PPC Mac and WinXP desktop but no luck | 01:52 |
| crusher | poprocks I am more interested in the internet speed problem | 01:52 |
| tstiffler88 | linuxguymarshall: i just added a menu to the AWN that allows me to see the menus that were in the panel, is there a setting in administration or system that will let me add a panel? | 01:52 |

| kahrytan | nickrud: how do i reconfigure? | 02:44 |
| nickrud | kahrytan, could be. you can use the keyboard to move around the icons and such; ctl-alt-escape selects the desktop and panels, left-right-up-down arrows move selection, enter activates | 02:44 |
| trimeta | Blaqlight: I'd recommend either PuTTY (just for ssh) or Cygwin (for a full Linux-like environment). | 02:44 |
| nickrud | kahrytan, sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg. But checking your mouse isn't a bad idea either | 02:44 |

| trimeta | Matthew12: Not really, if it's just intermittent; if it's happening consistently, every time you you try to view a YouTube video, you might have bigger problems. | 02:52 |
| nickrud | kahrytan, that's one avenue. Maybe someone who knows your answer will come through. You need to weigh the benefits/debits | 02:52 |
| moosepants | Hi guys. I downloaded a package source from Intrepid, and am backporting it to Hardy. I would like to change one of the depends to a previous version of a library, however the source.orig.tar.gz doesn't have a debian directory with the control et al. Should I just edit the .dsc file and modify the depends there? | 02:52 |
| IndyGunFreak | man, these netsplits are gettin crazy | 02:52 |
| zaklinux | spoon_man: yeah, can I walk up to any computer and boot from the USB and have my Ubuntu ready to go? | 02:52 |
| djGentoo|away | zaklinux: Sort of. | 02:52 |
| kahrytan | nickrud: Debit would be hour or two out of my time. | 02:52 |

| c_lisp | hey when I rebooted my static ip work from setting it up from network manager is there a way I could of done it wihtout rebooting I had even tried /etc/init.d/networking restart but it didn't do anything | 02:53 |
| sweet_smart | ygfgff | 02:53 |
| Matthew12 | trimeta, usually after an exit, I'm able to view the video in question. so it's just an annoyance I guess. | 02:53 |
| zaklinux | So as long as the BIOS allows me to boot from USB, in theory it shouldn't matter where the initial install was done. | 02:53 |
| spoon_man | zaklinux, the Ubuntu on the USB drive is just for installing | 02:53 |
| BCM43 | spoon_man: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LiveUsbPendrivePersistent | 02:54 |

| Street360 | as I click on the image..it isn't playing | 02:59 |
| mad_max02 | zcat[1], how can I check that ? | 02:59 |
| trimeta | zcat[1]: The topic says it's in Hardy. | 02:59 |
| molgrum | if ubuntu freezes and i have to reboot the computer, where do i get the log for the debug messages? (sorry for asking again but i had a too small console buffer) | 02:59 |

| tech0007 | pccc: dont have the iso atm,sorry | 03:00 |
| trimeta | CShadowRun: What sort of things about VNCs? | 03:00 |
| Street360 | do I have to installWine?? | 03:00 |
| Street360 | Install Wine?? | 03:01 |
| trimeta | Street360: What are the names of the iso files you have? | 03:01 |
| CShadowRun | trimeta well basically i want something the same as RealVNC in windows, there is a linux port of this, but theres things saying it doesn't work in ubuntu for some reason | 03:01 |

| MrSmurfing | If I have an executable file and I want to be able to call it from the command line, how would I do that? I tried putting it in /bin and /sbin but if I type the filename I get nothing? | 03:02 |
| CShadowRun | trimeta and i also keep hearing people say you have to leave your computer logged in in order to VNC home, which is silly. Can't you just have control over exactly what is on the screen (Like in windows?) | 03:02 |
| mneptok | MrSmurfing: .exe? | 03:02 |
| bazhang | MrSmurfing, what file | 03:02 |
| Street360 | I click on the ISO and get an error | 03:02 |
| MrSmurfing | It's a linux binary | 03:02 |
| tech0007 | pccc: and can you also check if you've d/l the desktop edn not the server one | 03:02 |
| bazhang | MrSmurfing, which one | 03:02 |
| mneptok | MrSmurfing: ls -l /path/to/name/of/file | 03:02 |
| pccc | tech0007: i have the 64-bit server edition; there is no livecd for server? | 03:02 |
| zcat[1] | CShadowRun: there's a way to run vnc on a virtual x session, can't remember how to setthat up though. Have done it in the past | 03:03 |
| MrSmurfing | it's called starutil | 03:03 |
| Street360 | That is Inside Totem Movie Player | 03:03 |
| bazhang | !info starutil | 03:03 |
| ubottu | Package starutil does not exist in hardy | 03:03 |
| trimeta | CShadowRun: If you're using VNC with Linux, you basically need to run your X session from within the VNC server; that X session needs to stay logged in, but you can detach it from your home computer and use it from the remote one. | 03:03 |
| CShadowRun | zcat[1] i don't think i want that either, that makes me not see what is currently on the screen. | 03:03 |
| Miesco | I lost my tray icons, how do I get them back? | 03:03 |
| tech0007 | pccc: server edn does not run the gui | 03:03 |

| trimeta | Miesco: Right-click on the panel and add the notification area? | 03:04 |
| MrSmurfing | It's an executable to allow me to log into a pretty rare type of wifi radio | 03:04 |
| CShadowRun | trimeta so i can't just have a simple VNC that runs and doesn't matter if i'm logged in or not, and shows me exactly whats on the screen (like in windows) ? | 03:04 |
| pccc | tech0007: oic, that's right. i installed the gui separately. well, thanks | 03:04 |
| chendo[work] | Don't worry | 03:04 |
| chendo[work] | it's deflate | 03:04 |
| zcat[1] | CShadowRun: I don't think you can vnc into the gdm login.. never seen that done. | 03:04 |
| MrSmurfing | I can call it with it's full pathname and it works fine. | 03:04 |
| CShadowRun | that's no good :( | 03:04 |
| mneptok | MrSmurfing: ls -l /path/to/name/of/file | 03:04 |
| powertool08 | how do you list the users in a terminal? | 03:04 |
| CShadowRun | So if you want to VNC home your expected to leave your computer unlocked? | 03:04 |
| CShadowRun | That's really silly | 03:04 |
| mneptok | MrSmurfing: then its path is not in your shell's $PATH variable | 03:04 |
| philh | CShadowRun, or you can just lock it | 03:04 |
| CShadowRun | isn't lock the same as the gdm screen? | 03:05 |
| trimeta | powertool08: w | 03:05 |
| philh | CShadowRun, not as far as i know | 03:05 |
| MrSmurfing | mneptok: Ok, I guess that's my question, how do I add it's path to my shell's $PATH variable? | 03:05 |
| CShadowRun | and what happens if i need to reboot while i'm away? | 03:05 |
| zcat[1] | CShadowRun: you could use xdmcp or ssh -x | 03:05 |
| powertool08 | trimeta: is that all users, or just those logged on? | 03:05 |
| trimeta | MrSmurfing: export PATH="$PATH:/your/new/dir" | 03:05 |
| trimeta | powertool08: Just those who are logged on. | 03:05 |
| philh | CShadowRun, remote X would be more flexible, as zcat suggests | 03:05 |
| CShadowRun | but other peoples computers don't have any of that | 03:05 |
| verbose | or xmove for already running apps | 03:05 |
| heavy27 | j/#ubuntu-es | 03:05 |
| zcat[1] | CShadowRun: yeah, if xscreensaver has the screen locked you can still vnc that | 03:05 |
| powertool08 | trimeta: how do I list all | 03:06 |
| trimeta | powertool08: If you've got root access, you could look at the contents of /etc/shadow, though that will include fake users (created for various programs) as well. | 03:06 |
| CShadowRun | lol, this is so over-complicated | 03:06 |
| heavy27 | como entro a ubuntu-es | 03:06 |
| philh | CShadowRun, how many people do you know that VNC to their home machine on a regular basis? | 03:06 |
| Street360 | I have an ISO Image Can't Play .. | 03:06 |
| CShadowRun | philh atleast one, me. | 03:06 |
| trimeta | heavy27: /join #ubuntu-es | 03:06 |
| philh | it may be because i don't live in the world of windows but i can't say any of my friends would | 03:06 |
| CShadowRun | I have a dummy terminal laptop i take with me everywhere i go. | 03:07 |
| Street360 | I get an error in Totem | 03:07 |
| philh | not without ssh tunneling at least, and i'm guessing that's over-complicated for you | 03:07 |
| MrSmurfing | trimeta: thanks | 03:07 |
| MoreOvaltine | quick question, everytime i press ctrl alt backspace it turns off my computer | 03:07 |
| spoon_man | Street360, you're trying to open an ISO with Totem? | 03:07 |
| zcat[1] | CShadowRun: I generally use putty if I'm on a windows machine, but that's text only. Most of my friends use Linux so I can use ssh -x to run gui programs a lot of the time (although I still mostly just use plain ssh even then) | 03:07 |
| CShadowRun | hehe i just want a simple remote control like i could get on windows | 03:07 |
| mneptok | heavy27: escrive/empuje "/join #ubuntu-es" (no "") | 03:07 |
| trimeta | CShadowRun: Seriously, ssh-tunneled VNC is perfectly usable, and you don't lose security by leaving your main computer logged in (since you need to ssh into it to get to that logged-in session). | 03:07 |
| spoon_man | Street360, have you tried mounting the ISO? | 03:08 |
| lvlefisto | which package has the source code for the endgame screensaver? | 03:08 |
| CShadowRun | but when i'm away and using someone elses computer, they have a web browser, and that's all | 03:08 |

| zcat[1] | CShadowRun: you can run putty of a sub stick.. or just download it and delete it when you're done, it's a tiny program | 03:09 |

| Jack_Sparrow | NetEcho_ It does not matter where it came from. | 03:12 |
| afallenhope | NetEcho, install java via the synapted | 03:12 |
| SeveredCross | Ctrl-Alt-Backspace shouldn't put your computer to standby either. | 03:12 |
| trimeta | Xavura: Did you try apt-get update to clear out any weirdness? | 03:12 |
| nixmon | no body can help with my linksys wireless card? | 03:13 |
| NetEcho_ | Jack_Sparrow, http://java.com/en/download/linux_manual.jsp | 03:13 |
| MoreOvaltine | LOL weird bios?? | 03:13 |
| SeveredCross | MoreOvaltine: That has nothing to do with the BIOS. | 03:13 |
| SeveredCross | How Ctrl-Alt-Backspace is handled is up to X. | 03:13 |
| trimeta | NetEcho_: Look at the Ubuntu howto's on installing Java. | 03:13 |
| NetEcho_ | The JRE install that apt installs doesn't work for this website | 03:13 |
| Xavura | I'll try update | 03:13 |
| Christoph_82 | Jack_Sparrow: Well then do you know if Wine can run programs from my NTFS partition? | 03:13 |
| tech0007 | NetEcho_: 'sudo apt-get install sun-java6-jre' | 03:13 |
| NetEcho_ | trimeta, according to ubuntu I have 2 instalations of java | 03:13 |
| MoreOvaltine | SeveredCross: could it be i disabled acpi? | 03:13 |
| spoon_man | Makuseru, in Add/Remove, you'll want to choose "All available applictions" in the Show menu | 03:13 |
| Xavura | I did update | 03:13 |
| SeveredCross | MoreOvaltine: Shouldn't matter. | 03:13 |
| Xavura | I still get the same error. | 03:13 |
| SeveredCross | Again, Ctrl-Alt-Backspace is supposed to restart X. | 03:14 |
| NetEcho_ | tech0007, that version is installed | 03:14 |
| Beryllium | is Wine 1.0 too new to be fetchable via apt-get? the latest one my ubuntu fetched is 0.9.46, looks like the most recent one prior to 1.0 was 0.9.6 | 03:14 |
| MoreOvaltine | SeveredCross: I know it is supposed to, it will restart xserver, the the computer will shut down. | 03:14 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Christoph_82 A question better asked in winehq.. but yes.. they can | 03:14 |
| NetEcho_ | tech0007, apt says its already installed and when I try to launch games on pogo.com it doesn't work | 03:14 |
| spoon_man | makuseru, I recommend Synaptic instead of Add/Remove, because I don't see it in the latter | 03:14 |
| MoreOvaltine | SeveredCross: then** | 03:14 |
| NetEcho_ | tech0007, pogo.com requires 6.6 | 03:14 |
| trimeta | NetEcho_: Which two Javas do you already have installed? | 03:14 |
| spoon_man | makuseru, you may also need the medibuntu repository | 03:14 |
| trimeta | Maybe you could uninstall the "bad" one and reinstall sun-jre. | 03:14 |
| Xavura | Also, totally random but there seems to be a fish swimming on my screen | 03:15 |
| spoon_man | !medibuntu | makuseru | 03:15 |
| ubottu | makuseru: medibuntu is a repository of packages that cannot be included into the Ubuntu distribution for legal reasons - See http://www.medibuntu.org | 03:15 |
| tech0007 | NetEcho_: is sun-java6-bin installed? | 03:15 |
| NetEcho_ | tech0007, I ran that command and it said its already installed | 03:15 |
| Xavura | Why is there a fish swimming around on my screen? | 03:15 |
| trimeta | Xavura: Did you free the fish? | 03:15 |
| Xavura | I don't think so | 03:15 |
| NetEcho_ | tech0007, yes | 03:15 |
| Xavura | What fish? lol | 03:15 |
| tech0007 | NetEcho_ -jre is a different package from -bin | 03:15 |
| Xavura | Free the fish? | 03:15 |
| MoreOvaltine | SeveredCross: so what should i do? | 03:15 |
| Jack_Sparrow | !ot > Xavura | 03:16 |
| NetEcho_ | tech0007, just ran it for -bin its installed | 03:16 |
| Xavura | Huh? | 03:16 |
| Xavura | I am so very confused | 03:16 |
| NetEcho_ | tech0007, could it be -plugin? | 03:16 |
| bazhang | Xavura, this is support not chat. | 03:16 |
| Xavura | I noticed, there's a fish on my screen and it won't go away | 03:17 |
| Xavura | nor can I install Opera | 03:17 |
| Xavura | so I'm seeking support | 03:17 |
| Xavura | Is that a problem? | 03:17 |
| Jack_Sparrow | !enter > Xavura | 03:17 |
| tech0007 | NetEcho_: yeah try it, and check tools->addons in FF for java | 03:17 |
| trimeta | NetEcho_: Could you "aptitude search java" and tell us all the javas you have installed? | 03:17 |
| calc | Xavura: http://www.linuxtutorialblog.com/post/gnome-easter-egg-free-the-fish | 03:17 |
| bazhang | !opera | Xavura | 03:17 |
| ubottu | Xavura: opera is an advanced and free (only as in price) web browser. Install it via Applications->Add/Remove..., making sure that "Show commercial applications" (dapper only) is checked. For more info on opera please see: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/OperaBrowser | 03:17 |
| Xavura | There is NO "Show commercial applications" | 03:18 |
| Jack_Sparrow | bazhang I thought they pulled opera from HArdy repos.. | 03:18 |
| bazhang | Xavura, read the last link there | 03:18 |
| Xavura | I'll check it out. | 03:18 |
| NetEcho_ | tech0007, It allowed me to open the window now but the applet loads as grey and does nothing | 03:18 |
| bazhang | Jack_Sparrow, thought it was either on medibuntu or canonical partner repos | 03:18 |
| Xavura | On that website it says | 03:18 |
| Xavura | "(I have yet to discover how to get rid of that annoying fish again...)" | 03:18 |

I blacklisted ath_pci and ath_hal and uninstalled the restricted drivers. There is no ath_anything loaded. Where is that alternate driver coming from, and how do I stop it? | 03:23 |

| trimeta | tech0007: I think .flv is more accurate, but file names don't really matter much. | 03:23 |
| McQuaid | how do i pass to grub not to show the graphical startup indicator | 03:23 |

| tech0007 | !ask | Naisenu | 03:24 |
| ubottu | Naisenu: Please don't ask to ask a question, ask the question (all on ONE line, so others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely answer. :-) | 03:24 |
| Naisenu | Yes. I have asked three times and noone's answered | 03:24 |
| Xavura | Keep trying, someone will eventually. | 03:24 |

| Naisenu | yet others coming after me get answered | 03:24 |
| McQuaid | Jack_Sparrow but can i pass it from startup or do i have to edit menu.1st via live cd first? | 03:24 |

| PorkExpress | Microsoft's primary stated objective with Windows Vista, however, has been to improve the state of security in the Windows operating system.[4] One common criticism of Windows XP and its predecessors has been their commonly exploited security vulnerabilities and overall susceptibility to malware, viruses and buffer overflows.

| Naisenu | tech0007: name it to what? | 03:44 |
| trimeta | jamisnemo: Dual-boot? | 03:44 |
| NetEcho_ | My 1gb mp3 player worked perfectly | 03:44 |
| Jack_Sparrow | NetEcho_ most mp3 players have a mode that lets them look like a flash or removeable drive.. all of mine work.. 4 diffedrent ones | 03:44 |
| jamisnemo | trimeta, I'm already about to set up a quad boot :( | 03:44 |
| Naisenu | tech0007: Could I just copy it and rename it? | 03:44 |
| jamisnemo | I think I'll use vmware for vista... | 03:44 |
| Jack_Sparrow | NetEcho_ The ipod ones.. are a different matter | 03:44 |
| NetEcho_ | Jack_Sparrow, this one is a pretty cheap one so tis probably an issue with it | 03:44 |
| tech0007 | Naisenu: skip that one...whats the output of 'file /etc/alternatives/xulrunner-1.9-javaplugin.so' | 03:44 |
| NetEcho_ | Jack_Sparrow, Sylvania 2gb cost like $10 at the grocery store | 03:45 |
| trimeta | jamisnemo: Keep in mind that Vista has pretty steep HD and RAM requirements, so it might not be so great in a virtual machine. | 03:45 |
| jamisnemo | arr that's what I'll do | 03:45 |
| mneptok | dubby: i didn't copy, i looked it up. | 03:45 |
| Jack_Sparrow | NetEcho_ read the manual. there is almost always a way to get it to read | 03:45 |

| trimeta | (I use 64-bit Gentoo.) | 03:47 |
| Kcaj | (sorry I missed any previous answers) | 03:47 |
| mneptok | airstrike: or restart the audio subsystem with "sudo invoke-rc.d pulseaudio restart" | 03:47 |
| genii | baegle: Something to that effect, yes | 03:47 |
| tech0007 | Naisenu: are u done with the d/l? FF looks for its plugins in the right dir so its not finding your java plugin | 03:47 |
| airstrike | all i got was 'mixer_app', which i can't terminate | 03:47 |
| Kcaj | Also | 03:47 |
| Bodsda | Jack_i dont suppose theres anyway of changing from 64 to 32 without reinstalling is there? | 03:47 |
| trimeta | Kcaj: Try Wine, otherwise probably not. | 03:47 |
| amenado | i thought vncserver would allow remote controll of myhost? i have to use x11vnc? or perhaps a settings I have not enabled? am trying to control a fedora from an unbuntu.. | 03:47 |
| baegle | genii: I'm not getting that problem. Did you have SATA opticals? I have IDE opticals | 03:47 |
| crimsun_ | airstrike: that's mixer_applet2. | 03:47 |
| bazhang | Kcaj, what apps | 03:47 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Kcaj /join #winehq and ask there | 03:47 |
| Kcaj | Is WINE known to run faster than Windows sometimes? | 03:47 |
| philh | HealthyElijah, i didn't realise it hid them | 03:47 |
| Kcaj | Mostly FL Studio | 03:48 |
| Naisenu | tech0007: Yes the d/l is done. The only thing it couldn't do was d/l the doc. | 03:48 |
| waveflow | apt-get install xfce4 <---im a noob, should i type anything b4 this, will i have the option to run gnome or xfce during boot??? | 03:48 |

| HealthyElijah | philh: in mine it is. | 03:48 |
| bazhang | !appdb | Kcaj check here | 03:48 |
| Flannel | Kcaj: There are some linux native audio programs you might want to try out | 03:48 |
| choudesh | waveflow, yes - via the session button in gdm | 03:48 |
| Kcaj | Also what is best text editor for the Loonicks? | 03:48 |
| Jack_Sparrow | baegle my sata optical works fine here.. | 03:48 |
| Kcaj | I mean, in general | 03:48 |
| ubottu | Kcaj check here: The Wine Application DB is a database of applications and help for !Windows programs that run under !WINE: http://appdb.winehq.org | 03:48 |
| jrib | waveflow: type sudo before it. You may want to install xubuntu-desktop instead | 03:48 |
| airstrike | wth | 03:48 |
| choudesh | waveflow, the little session button where you login | 03:48 |
| bazhang | ubottu lag | 03:48 |
| genii | baegle: I have IDE optical drives but the controller for it is integrated with the SATA controller and so it did not work out-of-box. | 03:48 |
| ubottu | You have lag, I don't have lag | 03:48 |
| mneptok | waveflow: you'll want "sudo" at the beginning | 03:48 |
| airstrike | none of those solutions worked ;( | 03:48 |
| danbhfive | ubilicious: did other packages install? | 03:49 |
| baegle | genii: That's kind of bunk that I have to buy new hardware just to install Ubuntu | 03:49 |
| mneptok | Kcaj: CLI or GUI? | 03:49 |
| crimsun_ | airstrike: why don't you kill the pids? | 03:49 |
| ubilicious | danbhfive: all of them did but those 4 gave me probs | 03:49 |
| Bodsda | mneptok, a few times now ive gone to install a deb from a site andd the debi installer moans about wrong architecture, so yeah im quite annoyed atm,.,.i dont think il be using 64 bit for about a year now | 03:49 |
| Bodsda | lesson learned | 03:49 |
| mneptok | Bodsda: it's a bummer of a lesson, i'll admit | 03:49 |
| airstrike | even if i kill mixer_applet2, the problem remains | 03:49 |
| airstrike | that's weird.. | 03:49 |
| waveflow | my system is 1.7ghz 384ram... should i install the xubuntu?? or get the xfce running on ubuntu instead? | 03:50 |
| crimsun_ | airstrike: what problem? | 03:50 |
| genii | baegle: If you have some ancient hard drive cntroller card around it would work to use for installing. | 03:50 |
| choudesh | waveflow, there is no reason to reinstall | 03:50 |
| danbhfive | ubilicious: its not important. Did it fix your problems? | 03:50 |
| Bodsda | mneptok, luckily, ive learned quite a few lessons in the past, and i have a seperate /home pasrtition, but is there anyway of preserving my installed apps? | 03:50 |
| baegle | genii: you mean like a PCI IDE controller or something? | 03:50 |
| genii | baegle: Yes | 03:50 |
| Jack_Sparrow | !clone | 03:50 |
| mneptok | Bodsda: you can backup a package list | 03:50 |
| ubottu | To replicate your packages selection on another machine (or restore it if re-installing), you can type « dpkg --get-selections > ~/my-packages », move the file "my-packages" to the other machine, and there type « sudo dpkg --set-selections < my-packages && sudo apt-get dselect-upgrade » - See also !automate | 03:50 |
| waveflow | well time constraints.. :) so what do u guys suggest | 03:50 |
| tech0007 | Naisenu: if u still dont see java plugin in FF, u have to do symlinks manually | 03:50 |
| philh | baegle, are you using the main CD or alt? | 03:50 |
| genii | baegle: Like a Promise TX133 or something | 03:50 |
| choudesh | waveflow, if you want - open terminal - sudo tasksel and select the xubuntu desktop | 03:50 |
| ubilicious | danbhfive: Oh I didn't know that would fix it I thought it was debug feature or something | 03:51 |
| glynntalbert | Glynn_Talbert | 03:51 |
| Naisenu | tech0007: Do I need to create that folder for it? | 03:51 |
| NetEcho | Jack_Sparrow found out why, it has some form of propriatary windows driver | 03:51 |
| ubilicious | danbhfive: I will try it | 03:51 |
| Flannel | waveflow: Getting xubuntu running on an Ubuntu is the same as running xubuntu. Theyre the same distro, just with differnet GUIs | 03:51 |

| vaportrail123new | okies | 04:31 |
| vaportrail123new | thanks man | 04:31 |
| nickrud | vaportrail123new, you need to change your sources, gksudo /etc/apt/sources.list and change them to use old-releases.ubuntu.com . Then you will be able to update the updater. | 04:32 |

| nickrud | bleh | 04:32 |

| genii | dolphin_noel: It would be difficult to change without access to the console of that machine. To boot it into single user mode for instance, or use a livecd to bypass the security on hd | 04:32 |

| trimeta | waveflow: Did you make a separate partition for /boot? | 04:34 |
| vaportrail123new | after ksudo /etc/apt/sources.list, what should i do | 04:34 |
| tech0007 | Naisenu: use sudo | 04:34 |

| leachim6 | crimsun_, I still have gutsy on this box ... but it's only on a 10gb partition and I don't feel like migrating it | 04:34 |

| leachim6 | and I have no room on the drive to resize | 04:34 |

| vaportrail123new | oh i think i know what to do | 04:35 |
| waveflow | i dont know , how do i check it? | 04:35 |
| nickrud | vaportrail123new, the real command would be gksudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list , then changing all the url's to old-releases.ubuntu.com . But use the iso that unavailable gave you and install the latest | 04:35 |
| tech0007 | Naisenu: where did u get this? | 04:35 |
| trimeta | waveflow: First "sudo mount /boot", then "df -h" | 04:35 |

| nickrud | hocmin, which do you prefer? | 04:43 |
| Reformer | genii: Okay... thanks anyway. | 04:43 |
| vaportrail123new | secret: pure guess, but possibly an issue with the hard disk?? | 04:43 |
| byonix | LeefMc: to add fonts from windows. go to the C/windows, copy the Fonts foder, paste it in your home folder, not in the documents folder, change the folder name with .fonts, restart x server, the windows fonts can be use in openoffice | 04:43 |
| RAdams | PrimoTurbo: try agave | 04:43 |
| unavailable | ok when i ran the live cd before install, i set my network to static ip, then installed and it kept the settings from the live cd... is that a fluke or is ubuntu designed to be like that? i.e. if i change the config in the live session, then install from there, will my settings be kept? | 04:43 |
| Secretcode6 | Vaport:How Do I fiix it...? | 04:43 |
| dolphin_noel | genii yes understand thanks for the idea :) | 04:44 |
| waveflow | still E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem. | 04:44 |
| rainwalker | have a lot of people had problems with the new -19 kernel? | 04:44 |
| RAdams | unavailable: the latter | 04:44 |
| genii | dolphin_noel: np | 04:44 |
| waveflow | i mean.. to remove such file the dpkg is still there | 04:44 |
| vaportrail123new | secret: if its a hardware issue, u can try slow formatting it, or buying a new hard drive | 04:44 |
| dolphin_noel | genii i'm only a litle newbie to :x that why i'm making this questions :x | 04:44 |
| waveflow | so i cant remove it | 04:44 |
| trimeta | waveflow: OK, you're going to have to do things the hard way. | 04:44 |
| unavailable | radams so if install whatever in live session then run setup it will have all i did in the live session on my install? | 04:44 |

| unavailable | niice | 04:45 |
| waveflow | lol the hard way :D | 04:45 |
| vaportrail123new | but, again, thats just a pure guess at the problem | 04:45 |
| trimeta | waveflow: Do the following after someone other than me says it's a good idea: sudo rm both of the files ending in .bak, and then try sudo dpkg --reconfigure -a again. | 04:45 |

| Naisenu | unavailable: Exactly my point. I've been talking with tech0007 for gods knows how long to get the damned thing working | 04:52 |
| spoonman | fbthpg, if you want to install flash, you may just want to try navigating to youtube or something and letting it automate the process | 04:52 |

| spoonman | that's what I did | 04:52 |
| Naisenu | unavailable: Congrats. 7.10 | 04:53 |
| nickrud | Secretcode6, depends, if you're installing on a free drive, just let it do guided. | 04:53 |
| unavailable | secretcode6 you have anything on there you wanna keep? | 04:53 |
| trimeta | Secretcode6: If you're worried that the guided will clobber your existing Win98 partition, then use manual. | 04:53 |
| tech0007 | Naisenu: gutsy had issues w/ java, i did something to make it work but ican rmember | 04:53 |
| trimeta | Secretcode6: If you don't care what gets wiped, use guided. | 04:53 |

| Naisenu | tech0007: Then I have to remember everything I did to get it working. Like dual-monitors :P | 04:54 |
| fbthpg | and its a pita to get rid of | 04:54 |
| vaportrail123new | that smells about right | 04:54 |
| nickrud | fbthpg, do the install I gave you above, then run sudo update-alternatives --config firefox-addons-flashplugin | 04:54 |
| Starnestommy | er, less than that | 04:54 |
| tech0007 | Naisenu: haha | 04:54 |

| tech0007 | Naisenu: backup your conf files ie xorg.conf | 04:55 |
| Naisenu | Speaking of dual monitors, is it normal for Compiz not to work with dual monitors? Worked fine on a single. | 04:55 |

| spoonman | captainmorgan, you can just use sudo instead of su | 05:01 |
| CaptainMorgan | all I set up was my account, which has root level access | 05:02 |
| trimeta | CaptainMorgan: If you really want to log in as root (which you probably shouldn't do), you could do "sudo passwd". But really, why do you want to su to root? | 05:02 |

| Xavura | There is this thing, where you can portions of the screen do different things, if the mouse rests in said area for x amount of time. Say you could have it so you rest the mouse at the top of the screen and it opens a terminal (or whatever). My problem is, it's too sensitive. I only have to rest my mouse there for about a quarter of a second, I'd like to change it to a higher value as I keep accidentally triggering these little | 05:27 |

| NetEcho | Lucifer666 I'll try it | 05:37 |
| StephenZ | Ashish_: second, just use Pidgin, the bundled program. | 05:37 |
| JordiGH | Is Mozilla just having more control over Ubuntu's Firefox? | 05:37 |

| swansk | When I go to "network" there is "Windows Network". I can see many groups, but their names are messed up because their in Korean. I click on one and it won't let me "see" inside the group probably because of the Korean language problem. | 05:38 |

| alex_mayorga | bullgard4: you can keep it like that | 05:38 |

| amirman84 | Lucifer666: RONG, pidgin is a fantastic app, sorry sir you are just RONG | 05:39 |
| JordiGH | bullgard4: vfat has some limitations (e.g. you can't use characters like ? or :, which can matter for some music files), but if you want to use your stick with non-GNU-based systems, you probably ought to keep vfat on it. | 05:39 |
| Lucifer666 | Kaffeine is nice | 05:39 |
| alex_mayorga | ashish_: use ekiga | 05:39 |

| Flannel | ace_suares: It's not. | 05:39 |
| NetEcho | amazingjxq first its wrong and second everyone is entitled to their own opinion, since I only use MSN I dislike pidgin because aMSN has way more functionality | 05:40 |

| alex_mayorga | bullgard4: if you're going to use it in other operating systems fat32 might be the best option IMHO | 05:40 |
| bullgard4 | JordiGH: GParted says that the filesystem is 'fat16', not vfat. Can you comment? | 05:40 |
| Lucifer666 | I have a yahoo account and aim but I hardly use either anymore so it doesn't matter | 05:40 |

| spoon_man | vaportrail123new, you have to create a bootable disc using the ISO -- dragging the ISO to the CD won't do that | 05:46 |
| Kelen | Flannel: I was forget told you, i removed FireFox3 B5 immediately after the system installs finished.. is that any wrong for me to install FireFox-3.0 again ? | 05:46 |
| swansk | Ok, can I still share my files and share my printer, even though I can't access THEIR computers and THEIR printers because of language issues. | 05:46 |
| ace_suares | jasonwood: what is the tow-letter code of china ? | 05:46 |
| Lucifer666 | except when ryan messes everything up | 05:46 |

| Xavura | "As of Ubuntu 6.04 (Dapper Drake) there is slightly more NTFS writing support through a very experimental NTFS FUSE module. Using this seems to work but is NOT recommended. Do you want to use this?" | 06:11 |
| muva | i dont see that applet in add to panel list | 06:11 |
| ace_suares | !away | swansk | 06:11 |
| Lucifer666 | what is your problem elvis | 06:11 |
| ubottu | swansk: You should avoid changing your nick in a busy channel like #ubuntu, or other Ubuntu channels - it causes unrequired scrolling which is unfair to new users. (Please set your preferred nick in your client's settings instead.) The same goes for using noisy away messages; use the command "/away <reason>" to set your client away silently. See also «/msg ubottu Guidelines» | 06:11 |

| Xavura | Ok | 06:20 |
| RAdams | StephenZ: there's a couple of ways to format a disk. fdisk is probably the tool you need, depending on what you're doing. try man fdisk | 06:20 |
| unavailable | nano_ aah you mean cut and paste the whole file... i thought you meant text inside | 06:20 |
| Xavura | nickrud: Is it ok to paste it here? | 06:21 |
| StephenZ | Radams: "man fdisk" in the console? | 06:21 |
| Xavura | Or should I pm it, I don't know what it contains | 06:21 |
| vozniak | StephenZ: the easer way probably is gparted | 06:21 |
| RAdams | !pastebin | xavura | 06:21 |
| ace_suares | Xavura: is it an ntfs ? Sometimes when you dont close XP down good, it's 'dirty' and you need to restart Win to 'repair' | 06:21 |
| nano_ | unavailable, yes i mean the whole file | 06:21 |
| nickrud | Xavura no, put it on paste.ubuntu.com | 06:21 |
| BoneE | why cant i get my aterm to transparent | 06:21 |
| Xavura | I have. | 06:21 |
| nickrud | Xavura ah, then give me the link here, so I can look at it ;) | 06:21 |
| Xavura | But it doesn't contain anything that I don't want people seeing, right? | 06:21 |
| StephenZ | Vozniak: I can get that in the Add menu? | 06:21 |
| Xavura | Ah ok http://paste.ubuntu.com/22783/ | 06:21 |
| nickrud | Xavura nah, it's ok | 06:21 |
| vozniak | StephenZ: sudo apt-get install gparted | 06:22 |
| tech0007 | RAdams: fdisk is for disk partitioning...mkfs is for formating | 06:22 |
| RAdams | stephenz: gparted is probably easier, vozniak is right. fyi, "man" and then a command in console gives you the manual page | 06:22 |
| ace_suares | StephenZ: fdisk is NOT for fomatting. It's for partitioning. You need mke2fs ! | 06:22 |

| nickrud | Xavura then that script is outdated, do gksudo gedit /etc/fstab , and change ntfs-fuse to ntfs-3g | 06:23 |

| RAdams | ace_suares: gparted IS for formatting. fdisk is NOT. some person who was tired and half-paying attention (cough me cough) told him fdisk. gparted is fine | 06:33 |
| Xavura | nickrud: /media/ is still empty and clicking on "82.3 GB Media" in "Places" gives me "Unpriveleged user can not mount NTFS block devices using the external FUSE library. Either mount the volume as root or rebuild NTFS-3G with integrated FUSE support and make it setuid root." | 06:33 |
| vozniak | Method2oo7: sudo apt-get install sun-java6-jdk sun-java6-plugin | 06:33 |
| __ryan__ | gparted can be used to format.. | 06:33 |
| __ryan__ | but why would you | 06:33 |
| RAdams | __ryan__: gui | 06:33 |
| saint-takesh1 | could the 2 in the name of the library be causing this, or could it be an amd64 issue? | 06:33 |
| spoon_man | nano_, there's an app you can use to access ext3 from an NTFS-based OS, if you want to make the switch sometime | 06:33 |
| * nano_ eat | 06:33 | |
| ace_suares | RAdams: StephenZ: okay, i didn;t know that, format away then :-) | 06:33 |
| Killeroid | ace_suares: when did gparted stopped being one of the ebst apps used to format disks? | 06:33 |
| __ryan__ | it's way easier to type mkfs.* /dev/blah | 06:33 |
| StephenZ | So, being as I intend to use this harddrive as a secondary file drive, and from which to run programs that take up a large amount of disk space (and thus, do not belong on my primary drive), which format should I format as? | 06:33 |
| __ryan__ | :P | 06:33 |
| nickrud | Xavura http://paste.ubuntu.com/22784/ last line, make the edit in your fstab so it looks the same (ntfs-fuse replaced with ntfs-3g) | 06:33 |
| spoon_man | or was it ext2... | 06:33 |
| vozniak | gparted is the easier choice to format something | 06:34 |
| Killeroid | StephenZ: ext3 | 06:34 |
| RAdams | __ryan__: easy for someone who is comfortable using terminal. for those who can grok a gui better, gparted is a good choice. | 06:34 |
| ace_suares | saint-takesh1: i think you need a -dev. | 06:34 |
| nano_ | spoon_man, thnx | 06:34 |
| __ryan__ | RAdams, i suppose so yeah | 06:34 |
| Sock | Anyone here coding in ruby ? I want to switch from c/c++/c# ... but these tutorials are moronic :( | 06:34 |
| Xavura | nickrud: If I mess up the editing, will it break anything? | 06:34 |
| StephenZ | Killeroid: Thanks. | 06:34 |
| ace_suares | saint-takesh1: sudo apt-get install libasound2-dev | 06:34 |
| RAdams | Sock: #ruby | 06:34 |
| spoon_man | nano_ http://www.fs-driver.org/index.html | 06:35 |
| nano_ | Is there a maximum file size limit in ext3? | 06:35 |
| Sock | RAdams ok tnx | 06:35 |
| vozniak | someone have ati and last drivers? | 06:35 |
| saint-takesh1 | ace_suares: thanks, i'll try that just now | 06:35 |
| Killeroid | StephenZ: if you wanna use access that drive from windows then fat is better but if you are accessing the drive from a unix installation only then ext3 | 06:35 |
| nickrud | Xavura nothing that can't be fixed easily. This is only affecting your windows partition, everything else is just fine. Only edit the last line | 06:35 |
| StephenZ | Killeroid: Yeah, I'm going full-Ubuntu. | 06:35 |
| StephenZ | Holy cow. | 06:36 |
| ace_suares | Sock: ruby is offtopic, pleas got to #ror or #ruby, and yeas, I am coding a bit in ruby-on-rails. | 06:36 |
| StephenZ | I think it's actually done. | 06:36 |
| StephenZ | Can it really format that fast? | 06:36 |
| Killeroid | nano_: yeah, there is a maximum file limut but if i remember correctly its 8TB | 06:36 |
| Killeroid | *and | 06:36 |
| RAdams | nano_: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_file_systems (16GB to 2TB, depending, read the ext3 article) | 06:36 |
| RAdams | StephenZ: yes, it can | 06:36 |
| ce_NiEeZz_fs | hi | 06:36 |
| london | how to check if installed wireless network card? | 06:36 |
| StephenZ | Wowee. | 06:37 |
| warcaptain | so i just installed ubuntu hardy and its performing very poorly | 06:37 |
| warcaptain | displayconfig-gtk says im using vesa graphics? and a plug and play monitor? | 06:37 |
| vaportrail123new | yay! finnaly! | 06:37 |
| nano_ | Killeroid, RAdams : that is intense......the other day, i thought i heard talk about ext4, i don't know what ext3 is missing, therefore, why bother with ext4 | 06:37 |
| vaportrail123new | ubuntu ver 8.04! | 06:37 |
| warcaptain | i have 4gb of memory (3.2 allocated) | 06:37 |
| Xavura | nickrud: My line matches exactly, it was already like that. | 06:37 |
| nickrud | london lspci shows all your pci cards, lsusb your usb cards | 06:37 |
| spoon_man | warcaptain, you may have to enable hardware acceleration -- ATI or nVidia? | 06:37 |
| StephenZ | Right, so who would be willing to help me figure out how to install something? -Probably- shouldn't take long at all - I'm just horrifically inexperienced. | 06:37 |
| warcaptain | im using embedded Intel GMA 3100 | 06:38 |
| Killeroid | nano_: trust me, ext3 hs a lot of failings, i really cant wait for ext4 | 06:38 |
| vaportrail123new | thanks to all you ppls who helped me get this installed ^^ | 06:38 |
| vozniak | london: you yant check manufaturer name or driver instalation stats? | 06:38 |
| warcaptain | it worked rather well on Gutsy and exceptionally well on Vista | 06:38 |
| RAdams | !synaptic | StephenZ | 06:38 |
| ubott2 | StephenZ: synaptic is Ubuntu's Graphical Package Manager. For a good howto see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SynapticHowto | 06:38 |
| * ace_suares is leaving da house ! Good nicht everyone! Kudo's to nickrud, tech007, and the others. Sorry that I didn't know that gparted could do 'mke2fs -j -m0 /dev/sda4' :-) | 06:38 | |
| nickrud | Xavura did you do sudo mount -a ? | 06:38 |
| RAdams | ace_suares is forgiven | 06:38 |
| Xavura | Yes. | 06:38 |
| london | i want to use wirdless | 06:39 |
| nano_ | Killeroid, what failings...please mention a couple | 06:39 |
| ch00k | hola | 06:39 |
| warcaptain | anyone? | 06:39 |
| saint-takesh1 | ace_suares: thanks :) that worked. i feel foolish for not figuring that out....in my first-switched-to-linux days i always installed the -dev packages for everything, just in case. | 06:39 |
| vozniak | ace_suares: GN | 06:39 |
| spoon_man | warcaptain, you may have to enable hardware acceleration -- ATI or nVidia? | 06:39 |
| ch00k | alguien que hable español ?? | 06:39 |
| amenado | is there an option on vncviewer to specify which user it would use to log on if it is tunneled through a ssh? | 06:39 |
| spoon_man | nm | 06:39 |
| nickrud | Xavura that is extremely odd. That is the correct line. | 06:39 |

| unavailable | dang | 06:40 |
| rainwalker | where is ubotu? | 06:40 |
| RAdams | taking a nap | 06:40 |
| rainwalker | oh | 06:40 |
| RAdams | the factoids still work | 06:40 |
| warcaptain | spoon_man: I just said I am using Intel embedded GMA 3100 | 06:40 |
| Xavura | nickrud: :S | 06:40 |
| nickrud | Xavura ah, dang, I'm not using an ntfs disk here and forgot, the regular ntfs is the new way (I'm thinking halfway between that script and now). Change ntfs-3g to just ntfs . Sorry | 06:40 |
| Killeroid | nano_: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ext3#Disadvantages | 06:41 |
| nano_ | Killeroid, thnx | 06:41 |
| Xavura | nickrud: No problem, if it wasn't for you then I wouldn't even be this far... | 06:41 |
| RAdams | Killeroid: stop stealing my links out of my clipboard! | 06:41 |
| tech0007 | warcaptain: run 'displayconfig-gtk' | 06:41 |
| Xavura | nickrud: Done. Anything else? | 06:41 |
| StephenZ | Killeroid: Now that I try creating a new folder in the drive I just formatted and mounted, it's saying access is denied. | 06:41 |
| london | i want to check drive | 06:41 |
| Killeroid | RAdams: blame google :) | 06:41 |
| nickrud | Xavura I just wiped this disk and reinstalled without windows, so I didn't have my usual trick (look at my system before opening mouth) | 06:42 |
| warcaptain | again, as i already said, it says im using no graphics card (generic vesa drivers) and a plug and play monitor | 06:42 |
| london | how to check wireless drive | 06:42 |
| Killeroid | StephenZ: you need to mount the drive | 06:42 |
| warcaptain | i try to select the right adapter and monitor and it says the configuration doesnt work | 06:42 |
| StephenZ | Killeroid: I did. | 06:42 |
| Sock | oh a question, anyone else here got ATI2900XT ? The linux drivers are crap, they run the card at to high clock, and it uses much power and cooler is totaly waking everyone in the building :( | 06:42 |
| nickrud | !wireless | london | 06:42 |
| ubott2 | london: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs | 06:42 |
| Sock | how do i downclock on linux ? | 06:42 |
| StephenZ | Sock: Too high a clock? Lies and blasphemy - there is no such thing! | 06:42 |
| StephenZ | Well. Until the chip melts. | 06:43 |
| RAdams | Sock: what drivers are you using? | 06:43 |
| nickrud | Xavura try the sudo mount -a again | 06:43 |
| vozniak | london: you want check driver manufaturer or status of instalation? | 06:43 |
| * RAdams offers to show pictures of "too high a clock" to StephenZ | 06:43 | |
| === dmsuperman is now known as [dmsuperman] | ||
| Killeroid | StephenZ: what did you format the drive as and where did you mount it afterwards? | 06:43 |
| Sock | the ATI drivers i got trough add/remove | 06:43 |
| StephenZ | Bring it, RAdams. | 06:43 |
| hyphenex | Hey gang, I know about Squid proxy for Linux, but what are the best solutions for a proxy server for windows? With login control (best integrated with the Active Directory), site logging, and access control? Thanks :) | 06:43 |
| nickrud | Sock you could try the latest 8.6, envy-gtk will help you install them | 06:43 |
| StephenZ | Killeroid: Formatted it as ext3, mounted it on the only mount point I was given: /media/TH4NG | 06:43 |
| StephenZ | TH4NG being the name of the drive. | 06:44 |
| * nickrud thought he would _never_ recommend envy | 06:44 | |
| Sock | nickrud : do i have to recompile the kernel ? | 06:44 |
| Sock | i really don't want to do that :) | 06:44 |
| Xavura | nickrud: You are going to love me... http://paste.ubuntu.com/22786/ | 06:44 |
| Killeroid | StephenZ: did it mount correctly? no errors? nice drive name btw, made my chuckle | 06:44 |
| osmosis | anyone know how to use cpu frequency scaling? | 06:45 |
| nickrud | Sock no, you'll compile a new module for the kernel, but it's automated now, and from what I'm told it does it automatically on a kernel upgrade | 06:45 |
| StephenZ | Killeroid: No error message popped up, no. | 06:45 |
| moosepants | hyphenex: Hit google up, although I recall that there are few good free ones about :( | 06:45 |
| tech0007 | warcaptain: sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg | 06:45 |
| nano_ | is there anyway to "Undo" an update that was done via Update Manager | 06:45 |
| StephenZ | And thanks. It started out as TH1NG, following the Addam's Family theme I've been using for the past decade... But then I kept adding/switching HDDs. | 06:45 |
| nickrud | Xavura we see that all the time. I always recommend rebooting into windows and letting windows clean up after its own mess | 06:45 |
| Xavura | nickrud: So it should be working now? | 06:46 |
| Sock | Driver version 8.47 | 06:46 |
| warcaptain | tech0007: ive done that before | 06:46 |
| warcaptain | it still says im using no video drivers & plug & play monitor | 06:46 |
| nickrud | Xavura yep, that message means that linux is knows how to mount it now, but is being careful | 06:46 |
| tech0007 | warcaptain: did u try changing 'vesa' to 'intel' in xorg.conf | 06:46 |
| nickrud | nano_ not simply, no | 06:47 |
| Xavura | nickrud: /media/ is still empty and the drive in Places still gives a mount error. | 06:47 |
| nickrud | Xavura did you reboot into windows? Linux won't mount it until you get it marked as 'not in use', let windows do that | 06:47 |
| warcaptain | tech0007: i tried changing it to intel in displayconfig-gtk | 06:47 |
| warcaptain | it doesnt even let me do it | 06:48 |
| nano_ | nickrud, basically, today i updated my compiz stuff, and ever since, im getting annoying brief horizontal lines - that are temporary - across my screen...? | 06:48 |
| sherl0ck | hey im recompile my kernel because of a patch, and got the linux-source-2.6.24 package, and when i recompile will it be comparable to the packaged 2.6.24-19! what makes the 19 part? | 06:48 |
| legend2440 | Sock: in synaptic package to underclock ati is called rovclock | 06:48 |
| nickrud | nano_ haven't seen that here (but I also haven't updated) | 06:48 |
| RAdams | hot damn! the option NvAGP set to 1 in xorg.conf DOES fix suspend problems with nvidia-glx-new! | 06:48 |

| Method2oo7 | i keep geting "unable to launch the application" when trying to install sun java 6u6 | 06:48 |
| Killeroid | StephenZ: unmount and try mounting again "sudo mount /dev/hdxy /media/TH4NG" | 06:48 |
| tech0007 | warcaptain: 'sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf' | 06:48 |
| Sock | legend2440: if it works it will be a life saviour tnx. a a lot :) | 06:49 |
| RAdams | well i fixed something on a computer today, i can go to bed. night all. good luck xavura and stephenz | 06:49 |
| Method2oo7 | can some one help | 06:49 |
| Killeroid | StephenZ: replace hdxy with correct disk | 06:49 |
| Xavura | RAdams: thanks | 06:49 |
| RAdams | !ask | Method2oo7 | 06:49 |
| ubott2 | Method2oo7: 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. :-) | 06:49 |
| nano_ | Nicke, i didn't have any prob's before the update, now it seems like the update created these annoying lines.....do you typically update yourself at first opportunity? | 06:49 |
| nickrud | Xavura nope. Just boot into it, if it's an external safely remove it, then shut down normally and boot back into linux. It should be mounted automatically on boot | 06:49 |
| === kat is now known as Guest32767 | ||
| Xavura | it's internal. | 06:49 |
| nickrud | Xavura the first it in that sentence is 'windows' | 06:49 |
| warcaptain | tech0007: why does it say 'Configured Monitor' for everything?? | 06:49 |
| Xavura | Ok, thanks | 06:49 |
| warcaptain | well not monitor | 06:49 |
| warcaptain | but it says 'Configured' so and so for everything | 06:49 |
| StephenZ | Killeroid: In this case, TH4NG? | 06:49 |
| Method2oo7 | i keep geting "unable to launch the application" when trying to install sun java 6u6 can some one help | 06:50 |
| StephenZ | Rather than HDxy. | 06:50 |
| StephenZ | Or you mean sdx? | 06:50 |
| tech0007 | warcaptain: hardy has minimal use for xorg.conf, it usually detects the right card but it still can be set in xorg.conf | 06:50 |
| warcaptain | well it does a crappy job | 06:50 |
| warcaptain | that auto-detection is probably why it takes forever to start up | 06:50 |
| tech0007 | warcaptain: lol | 06:50 |
| nano_ | nickrud, what option in /etc/fstab will make a drive be mounted automatically at boot? | 06:50 |
| Sock | legend2440: looks exacltly the thing i wanted 10x | 06:50 |
| warcaptain | i sit at the ubuntu loading screen for like 2 minutes | 06:50 |
| nickrud | Method2oo7 are you installing 6u6 from the ubuntu repositories? | 06:51 |
| schnoowork | hello what is a good program to make disk images | 06:51 |
| moosepants | schnoowork: dd | 06:51 |
| Method2oo7 | no from the java site | 06:51 |
| warcaptain | tech0007: so im not sure what to put in for these values | 06:51 |
| london | where is lenovo e290m wireless drive | 06:51 |
| rainwalker | schnoowork: the make them or burn them? | 06:51 |
| nickrud | nano_ simply having it listed in fstab. you would add the option noauto to prevent automounting at boot | 06:51 |
| macrobad | schnoowork: partimage or ntfsclone | 06:51 |
| tech0007 | warcaptain: back it up first 'sudo cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.bak' | 06:52 |
| nickrud | Method2oo7 sudo apt-get install sun-java6-jre sun-java6-plugin , that will install 6u6 for you | 06:52 |

| Werdna | hey, how can I prevent myself from needing to type modprobe ndiswrapper every time I boot up? | 06:52 |
| warcaptain | tech0007: it shouldnt be too hard to restore a backup of this.. everything is default | 06:52 |
| warcaptain | how dumb | 06:52 |
| Killeroid | StephenZ: "sudo fdisk -l" and find the drvie you wanna mount, use its device name | 06:52 |
| nickrud | Method2oo7 as a general rule just about anything you would install from a website in windows is installed from the package repository in ubuntu | 06:52 |

| Killeroid | StephenZ: what didnt work? | 06:54 |
| StephenZ | Well, I unmounted it, then remounted it with the command you gave me, then tried creating the folder agani. Same error. No permission. | 06:54 |
| macrobad | Werdna: try putting your modules in /etc/modules ;) | 06:55 |
| nickrud | Rav1 I think you would want ttf-opensymbol | 06:55 |

| NetEcho | is there a GPG frontend for Ubuntu where you can Manage and create GPG keys for encrypting folders? | 06:55 |

| StephenZ | No, I could mount the disk, fine. It was last night I couldn't mount it. | 06:58 |
| StephenZ | Someone helped me with that. | 06:58 |
| StephenZ | It mounts fine... Mounted up as NTFS, then unmounted it, formatted it as EXT3, mounted it back, and tried to make a new folder. | 06:59 |
| StephenZ | The problem arises there. | 06:59 |
| StephenZ | I lack permission to make that folder, for some reason. | 06:59 |
| Killeroid | StephenZ: what command did you use to mount the disk? | 07:00 |

| rainwalker | Method2oo7: what do you mean by "backup"? | 07:01 |
| profxavier | ok, big picture: I want to be able to reboot my system, and still have remote axx without logging into the system. long story: I have my password set in 'Remote Desktop Prefences', which I am guessing is vncserver, now how do I set this to all vncserver to run, even at the login screen ? | 07:01 |
| nickrud | StephenZ you need to change the permissions of the folder it's mounted to, after it's mounted. What kinds of permissions do you want? Owned by you, or writeable by others? | 07:01 |
| macrobad | NetEcho: yes, it depends on the key algorithm, and its length. Generally, the program is waiting for random input (from a billion of different places) | 07:01 |
| StephenZ | So long as I can write to it, I don't care. | 07:01 |
| Method2oo7 | copy to my computer | 07:01 |
| StephenZ | I'm the only user of this computer. | 07:01 |
| nickrud | StephenZ sudo chown <you>:<you> /path/to/mountpoint | 07:01 |
| spoon_man | warcaptain, you can usually ignore specific monitor settings unless you're experiencing issues | 07:02 |
| NetEcho | macrobad so does using the encrypt file/folder option act sorta like OS X's file vault? | 07:02 |
| Xavura | nickrud: It seems to be working now, thanks for all the help. | 07:02 |
| RAdams | is anyone successfully sharing files via samba while ufw is running? if so, can you tell me what applicable rules you had to set? | 07:02 |

| nickrud | Xavura I don't think I'll forget that ntfs-3g is depreciated ;) | 07:02 |
| Xavura | Got a question though, when I go to "Places" it is listed, as I stated earlier, as 82.3 GB Media. | 07:02 |
| pccc | help! How do I resize partitions from Ubuntu Server 7.10? I can't resize while I'm using the OS, and there is no live cd to boot from.. | 07:03 |
| nickrud | StephenZ yes, it's a powerful command. That's why the /path/to/mountpoint has to be right | 07:03 |
| Xavura | Can I not rename it, to say "Windows HDD" or whatever. | 07:03 |
| Xavura | If so, how. | 07:03 |
| warcaptain | tech0007: so now i save it and ctl+alt+bkspc? | 07:03 |
| StephenZ | In this case, /media/TH4NG, right? | 07:03 |
| tech0007 | warcaptain: yup | 07:03 |

| macrobad | NetEcho: Sorry, I've never used OS X. What seahorse does is key management and desktop integration, the rest is done by GnuPG: it encrypts the file with strong cryptography. So, you'd need to store your private keys in a safe place only. | 07:04 |
| keith | Are there any free programs that work in Linux for recording what is on your screen? | 07:04 |
| nickrud | Xavura yes, you can give it a label. Install ntfsprogs, unmount the drive (umount /path/to/drive) run sudo ntfslabel /path/to/drive <label> , then run sudo mount -a | 07:04 |

| nickrud | Xavura notice that the unmount command is umount , not unmount | 07:06 |
| StephenZ | Nickrud: My username is "stephen", and the drive is mounted at /media/TH4NG. The EXACT command I should be using is "sudo chown stephen:stephen / media/TH4NG", right? | 07:06 |
| nickrud | StephenZ sudo chown stephen:stephen /media/TH4ANG | 07:06 |
| RAdams | where does ufw log? | 07:06 |
| pccc | How can I run gparted while not using the filesystem? | 07:06 |
| RAdams | I mean, where does it send it's logs when logging is on | 07:06 |
| nickrud | StephenZ with TH4NG spelled correctly, of course | 07:07 |
| profxavier | ok, big picture: I want to be able to reboot my system, and still have remote axx without logging into the system. long story: I have my password set in 'Remote Desktop Prefences', which I am guessing is vncserver, now how do I set this to all vncserver to run, even at the login screen ? | 07:07 |
| webcamwonder | pccc: Live CD | 07:07 |
| Xavura | nickrud: Ok, why? That seems silly to me | 07:07 |
| StephenZ | Nickrud: Right. I'm sending the command through... How will I know if I've hosed my whole drive's permissions? | 07:07 |

| pccc | webcamwonder: and when i use desktop live cd, it doesnt detect any devices | 07:08 |
| StephenZ | Nickrud: Well, it seems to work ,at the very least, for what I'd intended. *Chuckles.* | 07:08 |
| Xavura | nickrud: Path to drive is /media/sdb1 right? | 07:08 |
| nickrud | StephenZ when the machine starts to smoke (kidding!!). This is a very safe command to run. Note that there is no -R (for recursive changes) , and we've specified an exact folder | 07:08 |
| nickrud | Xavura yes | 07:08 |
| StephenZ | *Nods.* Thank you, Nickrud. I know enough to know that I know nothing. :) | 07:08 |
| webcamwonder | pccc: It doesn't detect your HDD? | 07:08 |
| nickrud | Xavura back in the day, commands couldn't be longer than 6 characters | 07:08 |

| ubott2 | StephenZ: An explanation of what file permissions are and how they can be manipulated can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FilePermissions | 07:09 |
| pccc | webcamwonder: it scans for awhile, then says 'no devices detected', so i guess not | 07:09 |

| macrobad | NetEcho: I am not sure how to do it. You'd have to try out different options. As for the seahorse, it'd allow you to encrypt files seamlessly, but would not create such a folder you've told about. | 07:09 |
| tech0007 | pccc: what is ur HDD? | 07:09 |

| Xavura | What about – | 07:13 |
| Xavura | sorry what am I thinking lol | 07:13 |

| Sock | how is it that official ATI linux drivers take 50mb, and ubuntu add/remove only ~10 ? | 07:14 |
| fredmv | I have a somewhat weird problem. Basically, on one of my laptops, I'm running gutsy/7.10. I went to upgrade to Hardy Heron, and it said I had 3rd party pkgs disabled. That's fine; I went into synaptic and checked the relevent repos. Did an apt-get update/apt-get upgrade. Then I restarted. I'm now in 'low-graphics' mode and the network appears not to work. Any idea what caused this (and what the remedy is)? | 07:15 |
| Xavura | nickrud: Done, it's still showing as 82.3 GB Media though. | 07:15 |
| nickrud | Xavura hm. Works for Me™ | 07:15 |
| Xavura | Should I Ctrl+Alt+Backspace | 07:15 |
| nickrud | Xavura shouldn't matter. I did that to my external drive, worked fine | 07:15 |
| Xavura | Maybe it needs you to re-login or whatever, to take effect. | 07:15 |
| Xavura | Why does nothing ever work for me... lol | 07:16 |
| powertool08 | how do I limit terminal output to a page at a time? (in a vt and can't scroll up) | 07:16 |
| nickrud | Sock 32bit and 64bit are in the ati installer, there's programming to write kernels, etc. | 07:16 |
| nickrud | Sock and code to write packages for debian, ubuntu, redhat, etc | 07:17 |

| macrobad | fredmv: First, make sure that your loopback interface is represented by two lines in /etc/network/interfaces, and one line is /etc/hosts. Then you might also want to run 'ip link show' and check if your loopback is UP. | 07:17 |
| nickrud | Xavura gotta call it a night, work tomorrow. Try creating the label in windows I guess | 07:18 |
| Xavura | Meh. | 07:18 |
| Xavura | Thanks for the help. | 07:18 |
| nickrud | Or ask around for help setting a label, someone else has probably done it more often than I | 07:18 |
| macrobad | fredmv: Yesterday, I damaged one of those definitions, and the whole desktop went awry... just like you've described. | 07:18 |
| pccc | tech0007: I will try the system rescue cd. it doesn't make sense to me why gparted running off disk would detect the hdd correctly but gparted running off live cd wouldn't. different versions maybe? | 07:19 |
| tech0007 | pccc: could be. hope it works | 07:19 |
| pccc | tech0007: tnx | 07:20 |

| BoneE | i cant write access to my linux box | 07:27 |
| Xavura | then I fell in love with Ubuntu and Kubuntu sucks, so can I like, remove Kubuntu and get me some more disc space? | 07:27 |
| Xavura | even though Ubuntu is kind of installed ON top of Kubuntu | 07:28 |

| Xavura | This isn't going to break anything, right? | 07:32 |
| Elf_Warrior | Admin hear ?? | 07:32 |
| Xavura | It seems like the tutorial is talking about people who installed Kubuntu from within Ubuntu | 07:32 |
| Xavura | Not the other way around. | 07:32 |
| magnetron | Xavura: we understand your question. they are not on top of eachother at all | 07:32 |
| Xavura | Ok, just checking, I'm relatively new to Linux so | 07:33 |
| Xavura | It's best to be safe | 07:33 |
| spoon_man | installing ubuntu after installing kubuntu should, in theory, not change anything unless you went with gnome on the second install | 07:34 |

| Xavura | magnetron: at the end of that long command it has && sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop | 07:36 |
| Xavura | Isn't that going to overwrite everything? | 07:36 |
| Xavura | and effectively get rid of all my programs etc. | 07:36 |
| magnetron | Xavura: nonono, installing a package doesn't overwrite anything | 07:37 |
| Xavura | But why do I need && sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop | 07:37 |
| Xavura | I already have ubuntu-desktop. | 07:37 |
| Xavura | Obviously, since I'm using Ubuntu right now. | 07:37 |
| Flannel | Xavura: reinstalling it won't hurt. And *you* don't, that page is generic | 07:37 |
| Xavura | So all my files, places/locations, programs, settings will be intact? | 07:38 |
| Flannel | Xavura: Nothing will change, apt-get will say "this is already installed" and ignore it | 07:38 |

| Xavura | Ok. | 07:40 |
| Xavura | Synaptic is the | 07:41 |
| Xavura | thing in Administration somewhere right | 07:41 |
| spoon_man | yep | 07:41 |
| Xavura | Is it better to use that, than apt-get from a Terminal? | 07:41 |

| Blade_Wizard_Fal | flannel: thank you i was searching the forums..and i guess maybe i was typing the wrong words...cause i couldnt find anything... | 07:59 |
| aata | rainwalker found my old xorg.conf it was backed up. can you help me with this bloody monitor problem? cant seem to find a solution | 08:00 |
| spoon_man | renginez, did something happen to your sources.list? because the default version should point to all the repos you need | 08:00 |
| rainwalker | aata: I'll try, I'm not too experienced with graphics stuff though | 08:01 |
| spoon_man | renginez, here's my sources.list, it's standard as far as I know: http://paste.ubuntu.com/22792/ | 08:01 |
| renginez | spoon_man: nope it did not, thats y i need to change the link after the #deb, to download the proper headers from the proper server.. | 08:02 |
| aata | rainwalker anythings help :p | 08:02 |
| rainwalker | aata: what exactly is the problem? | 08:02 |
| renginez | btw i am running a ubuntu 5.0, | 08:02 |
| spoon_man | oh | 08:02 |
| aata | rainwalker the thing is that when i hook up to the external monitor, i can only see about 75% of the screen. the rest goes off the edges of the monitor. it looks fine on the laptop though | 08:02 |
| Flannel | renginez: 5.04? | 08:03 |
| spoon_man | renginez, then my sources.list won't work for you | 08:03 |
| aata | but the reason i need an external monitor is because the laptops lcd is pretty much destroyed | 08:03 |
| renginez | yeah the 5.04 | 08:03 |
| Flannel | renginez: Hoary hasn't been supported for almost two years now. You need to upgrade, and your repos don't work, because theyre all down | 08:03 |
| Bob24 | Hello | 08:03 |
| Bob24 | is it possible to add video streams in mythbuntu so you can stream them? | 08:04 |
| spoon_man | I suppose you could find-and-replace "hardy" with "hoary" | 08:04 |
| renginez | Flannel: i couldnt upgrade until i upgrade my rams.... | 08:04 |
| rainwalker | renginez: the latest version of ubuntu is 8.04 | 08:04 |
| Flannel | spoon_man: His repos don't work because the mirrors are down, not because his sources.list is broken | 08:04 |
| RabidLockerGnome | Hey guys, having some trouble getting ubuntu to work with my surround sound | 08:05 |
| rainwalker | aata: wow...I honestly have no clue :( | 08:05 |
| Flannel | renginez: Alright,well, if you switch your repos it http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/, they will work. | 08:05 |
| Dezine | Trying to use VirtualBox, get this error when it first opens. FATAL ERROR: Attribute 'version' has a value, '1.3-linux', that does not match its #FIXED value, '1.2-linux' | 08:05 |
| spoon_man | renginez, how much RAM do you have? because xubuntu could work for you | 08:05 |
| Flannel | renginez: but, again, you *need* to upgrade. You're completely unsupported, and that means vulnerabilities | 08:05 |
| aata | rainwalker np. thanks anyway | 08:05 |
| renginez | im running on super low rams 128mb | 08:05 |
| Bob24 | is it possible to add video streams in mythbuntu so you can stream them? | 08:06 |
| Flannel | !repeat | Bob24 | 08:06 |
| ubott2 | Bob24: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. You can search https://help.ubuntu.com or http://wiki.ubuntu.com while you wait. Also see !patience | 08:06 |
| renginez | Flannel: the http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ 404 not found... | 08:06 |
| Flannel | renginez: It works. Are you connected to the internet? | 08:06 |
| renginez | spoon_man:^^^^ about my rams..128mb | 08:06 |
| renginez | Flannel: yes tru my windows it is connected to internet, my ibook is currently off.... | 08:07 |
| spoon_man | renginez yeah, I think you need 256 to run xubuntu smoothly | 08:07 |
| renginez | spoon_man: yes, im hunting for a 512mb ram. So i could get updates for my ibook easily with less problems | 08:08 |

| renginez | Flannel: ill try again later of http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ link....kinda sleepy now, however this link is for me to edit the gedit sources.list deb link? | 08:12 |
| Flannel | renginez: yes, you replace the URL in there with that one, then your sources will work | 08:12 |
| spoon_man | renginez, you might want to look into Damn Small Linux for now, very low system requirements | 08:12 |
| renginez | Flannel: there are like 4 deb links? replace all four links with that same link u gave me? | 08:13 |

| khmer42 | 's a fast machines so I was wondering if anyone has any tips to speed things up? | 08:15 |
| khmer42 | P.S I'm runnning Hardy. | 08:15 |

| deejaypip | Yeah, I'm looking around and... I can't figure out how to update java for the life of me | 08:16 |
| deejaypip | umm, update java on firefox | 08:16 |
| Flannel | renginez: "deb URL hoary main restricted universe multiverse" then "deb URL hoary-updates main restricted universe multiverse" then the same, but with hoardy-security | 08:16 |
| NetEcho | when you share a printer from Ubuntu do you need any special drivers under windows? | 08:16 |

| NetEcho | I've heard audigy's work great in linux | 08:21 |
| RabidLockerGnome | yes, but i can't get it to work with my surround sound | 08:21 |
| RabidLockerGnome | just the front two make any sound | 08:21 |
| renginez02 | NetEcho: it updates everything...include the kernel headers automatically? (sorry im a n00b) | 08:21 |
| renginez02 | Flannel: yes the GNOME... | 08:21 |
| NetEcho | renginez02 yes | 08:21 |
| Flannel | renginez02: Synaptic is a graphical package manager, a graphical front end to apt-get | 08:22 |
| renginez02 | NetEcho: so "apt-get updates" command does all the jobs for me? | 08:22 |
| NetEcho | renginez02 System > Administration > Update Manager | 08:22 |

| user__ | Hello, I get the following error when trying to update ubuntu: Fatal: Bios device code 0x80 is being used by two disks | 08:54 |
| user__ | /dev/sdb (0x0810) and /dev/sda (0x0800) | 08:54 |
| berzerka | i am writing a userspace usb driver which uses the USBDEVFS_BULK ioctl on the udev /dev/bus/usb/*/* files to read device data. on my gentoo system at home, this works flawlessly (as a user, with rw permission on the device file). here on this (k)ubuntu system, i get "Operation not permitted", wether i am user or use sudo. i have (group) rw permissions on the device file. any ideas? i think i need the CAP_SYS_RAWIO capability. is it generally | 08:54 |
| berzerka | disabled on ubuntu? anyone an idea? | 08:54 |
| exot | ikonia, did u understand what I mean ? | 08:54 |
| ikonia | exot: then the file system needs to be mounted on the local machine | 08:54 |
| ikonia | berzerka: are you using raid | 08:54 |
| berzerka | ikonia: no | 08:54 |
| ikonia | oops | 08:54 |

| berzerka | ikonia: :) | 08:54 |
| ikonia | user__: your using fakeraid I assume ? | 08:54 |
| exot | ikonia, this is my problem, it's risky to mount the whole file system exported | 08:54 |
| ikonia | exot: then don't do it, login and edit it remotly | 08:55 |
| user__ | ikonia: linux raid as far as I remember | 08:55 |
| DistroJockey | srizz, yeah, was wondering about that. Put install infront of --reinstall | 08:55 |
| ikonia | user__: linux raid, please show me the output of "cat /proc/mdstat" | 08:55 |

| user__ | ikonia: is there something wrong with raid0? | 08:56 |

| ikonia | user__: that error is complaining about sda and sdb thats not in the raid group you showed me | 08:59 |
| ikonia | user__: whats the configuration of those 2 disks | 08:59 |
| jimcooncat | thanks BeeBuu, it looks as if it might! | 08:59 |
| jjido | Flannel: damn is that recorded? | 08:59 |
| berzerka | ikonia: the problem is that my userspace driver doesn't work. or wasn't that for me again? :) | 08:59 |
| Flannel | jjido: yeah, besides the fact that everyone here saw it | 08:59 |
| BeeBuu | jimcooncat: you're welcome. | 08:59 |
| DistroJockey | srizz, and I'm guessing java doesn't show in Firefox's plugins area? | 08:59 |

| berzerka | ikonia: no problem :) | 09:00 |

| user__ | ikonia: sda and sdb are raid | 09:03 |
| DistroJockey | srizz, that one looks better :) | 09:03 |
| ikonia | user__: what type of raid ? | 09:03 |
| spoon_man | srizz, yes | 09:03 |
| user__ | ikonia: linux raid | 09:03 |
| ikonia | user__: no they are not | 09:03 |
| ikonia | user__: if they where linux raid they would be called "/dev/md$something" not /dev/sda | 09:04 |
| DistroJockey | srizz, btw, the 2 - in front of config | 09:04 |
| srizz | DistroJockey: the first command went through fine the second had an error | 09:04 |
| DistroJockey | srizz, ahh, *nods* | 09:04 |
| ikonia | user__: the /proc/mdstat output does not show /dev/sda and /dev/sdb in a linux raid meta device | 09:04 |
| Gman99999 | hey how do you mount hard drives again after it says cannot mount dont have the user rights, I had access to my other partitions for weeks now and all of a sudden its messed up | 09:04 |
| user__ | ikonia: Please look at my /etc/fstab http://pastebin.com/d26603ac8 , there's a /dev/md0 in it | 09:05 |
| powertool08 | will X work if I only install -xserver and not -fonts -twm xf86-input-* etc? | 09:05 |
| srizz | spoon_man: there are about ten or so plugins itunes wmp vlc divx and such | 09:05 |
| ikonia | user__: yes, and there is also /dev/sda1 and /dev/sdb1 how can /dev/sda and /dev/sdb be "raid" if your mounting them as /dev/sda1 and /dev/sdb1 on different partitions | 09:05 |
| ikonia | user__: the /proc/mdstat you showed me didn't have sda or sdb in | 09:05 |
| === spoon_man is now known as spoonman_away | ||
| ikonia | user__: it shows sdb and sdc in your raid config | 09:06 |
| DistroJockey | srizz, and a restart of Firefox after that is no better? | 09:06 |
| mysterycool | Hey | 09:06 |
| mysterycool | Pidgin won't connect. I type my email and password but it says it's incorrect. but when i try to sign in though the website it works fine! :s | 09:07 |
| user__ | ikonia: I think that sdb and sdc are the actual disks, sda alias md0 is the result of "raiding" them | 09:07 |
| DistroJockey | srizz, actually try this one again (I fixed the -'s): sudo update-alternatives --config java | 09:07 |
| ikonia | user__: no - sda is not an alias for md0 | 09:07 |
| ikonia | user__: the "alias" is the md0 device name, | 09:07 |
| zloog | So | 09:07 |
| zloog | hows everyone doing | 09:07 |
| ikonia | zloog: this is a busy support channel, not a chat channel | 09:08 |

| mysterycool | Oh, thank you. =] | 09:09 |

| DistroJockey | srizz, and the current is sun-java6 ? | 09:09 |
| xuxux | is there a way of enabling desktop effects on a nvidia livecd? | 09:09 |
| xuxux | without installing | 09:09 |

| srizz | DistroJockey: 2 /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun/jre/bin/java | 09:10 |
| user__ | ikonia: hmm.. In the computer there are two serial ata disks setup in raid, and I think that I used linux raid but that was a while ago, everything worked fine under ubuntu x86-64 for two years until some weeks ago with this update | 09:10 |
| Gault | Hello, can someone offer recommendations for Input method editors available specifically for simplified chinese? which is better? | 09:10 |
| srizz | DistroJockey: you want me to post the other 3 | 09:10 |
| DistroJockey | srizz, maybe pastebinit if you can, sure | 09:11 |
| ikonia | user__: I think your disk layout is quite messed up, try using "fdisk -l" against /dev/md0, /dev/sda, /dev/sdb, and /dev/sdc to get an idea what your disks are setup like | 09:11 |
| === spoonman_away is now known as spoon_man | ||

| bazhang | xuxux, what is an nvidia livecd | 09:13 |
| Chikubu | will boost ram eventualy | 09:13 |
| DistroJockey | srizz, but I'm running out of ideas as to why it's not working sorry | 09:13 |
| xuxux | as in using a nvidia card for the livecd | 09:13 |
| wols_ | Chikubu: yes | 09:13 |
| bazhang | Chikubu, sure | 09:13 |
| xuxux | so i can enable desktop effects | 09:13 |
| user__ | ikonia: Please look at the output of fdisk -l on http://pastebin.com/d10107e2d | 09:13 |
| wols_ | xuxux: livecd won't load drivres that is 3D capable | 09:13 |
| xuxux | :/ | 09:14 |
| ikonia | user__: so you have 3 disks in your system, | 09:14 |
| bazhang | xuxux, very basic effects yes; need to install ccsm to get the full effects, as well as the nvidia drivers | 09:14 |
| ikonia | user__: I suggest that /dev/sda has at some point been used in fake raid | 09:14 |
| srizz | DistroJockey: its cool thanks for the help, i was considering a new browser, any suggestions (other than konquerer) | 09:14 |
| Chikubu | ok, downloading all the stuff to test now, test client will be a 486 board with a pii like chip at 463mhz and 196 ram, that be enuff of a client | 09:15 |
| zloog | srizz: thunar is always good | 09:15 |
| DistroJockey | srizz, I do prefer Firefox, but Opera may be worth a look | 09:15 |
| zloog | srizz: lol nm | 09:15 |
| spoon_man | opera is pretty sleek, but I haven't been able to find an ad blocker for it | 09:15 |
| DistroJockey | srizz, and you're welcome. Good luck. | 09:15 |
| srizz | DistroJockey: yeah im a firefox fan too, is thunar in synaptic | 09:15 |
| zloog | srizz: sorry thunar is a file browser, I thought that is what you ment | 09:16 |
| xuxux | whoo the applications/places/system bar has stopped responding to clicks | 09:16 |
| xuxux | yay | 09:16 |
| zloog | srizz: not for web browseing | 09:16 |
| DistroJockey | srizz, yes it is, but it's a file manager :) | 09:16 |
| Blade_Wizard_Fal | other than the ways listed here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HardyUpgrades is there a way to upgrade from dapper 6.06 to hardy directly? | 09:17 |

| xuxux | now it won't restart | 09:17 |
| xuxux | yay my linux abilities | 09:17 |

| user__ | ikonia: I have 3 disks, two sata in raid and one ide that bears the hda name. I don't know why there are sda sdb and sdc, but I'm sure that one of them doesn't correspond to a physical hard disk. | 09:17 |
| asoare | hello, can someone help me install a custom kernel ? i want it to be based on 2.6.24-19 with a minor modification. | 09:17 |
| srizz | DistroJockey: oh ok, do you know any other web browsers worth a try, safari would be cool but i doubt thats possible | 09:18 |
| ikonia | user__: libata changes all hdX names to sdX names | 09:18 |
| spoon_man | srizz, try opera | 09:18 |
| ikonia | asoare: what modifications | 09:18 |
| Chikubu | seamonkey is sprinty | 09:18 |
| srizz | DistroJockey: k | 09:18 |
| Chikubu | opera has some nice stuff | 09:18 |
| asoare | ikonia: i just want to change the processor type in the configuration, that's it | 09:19 |
| ikonia | asoare: why ? | 09:19 |
| Chikubu | dingo is very small but somewhat minimal | 09:19 |
| ikonia | asoare: building a kernel for no reason is a waste and you'll lose ubuntu support | 09:19 |
| asoare | ikonia: i know how to build and install a kernel, but i don't know where to get the exact sources for 2.6.24-19 | 09:19 |
| ikonia | asoare: because thats not a source | 09:19 |
| ikonia | asoare: the source is 2.6.24 - ubuntu release 19 | 09:19 |
| DistroJockey | srizz, only really Opera, there are others, but never used them | 09:19 |
| asoare | ikonia: because in ubuntu kernel, the processor it generic and i want to set it to core 2 duo, i feel it's a little irresponsive as it is now | 09:20 |
| wols_ | asoare: apt-get source <package> | 09:20 |
| ikonia | asoare: I strongly advise you not to build your own kernel, more so for something as pointless as "changing the cpu type" | 09:20 |
| user__ | ikonia: ok, so sda is probably my ide harddisk; I'm quite sure that the raid is between sdb and sdc because of the output of cat /proc/mdstat | 09:20 |
| ikonia | asoare: changing that cpu type will do nothing for your performance | 09:20 |
| bazhang | asoare, the generic is built for smp | 09:20 |
| wols_ | asoare: it's i686. you won't see any improvements | 09:20 |
| srizz | DistroJockey: true | 09:20 |
| ikonia | user__: yes, I told you your raid was sdb and sdc | 09:20 |
| asoare | ikonia: ok, then why does ubuntu feel "laggy" ? it's a fresh install and my computer is pretty performant | 09:21 |
| Werdna | hello. I've got an nForce2 sound card, using the intel- | 09:21 |
| xnv | How do you type non-American characters on an American keyboard layout in Ubuntu? | 09:21 |
| ikonia | asoare: thats a seperate question that we'd need to work through with you | 09:21 |
| ikonia | asoare: but you've given us zero information, the term "laggy" defines pretty much nothing | 09:21 |
| ikonia | asoare: I'd like a more detailed definition of laggy | 09:21 |
| spoon_man | seconded | 09:21 |
| Werdna | hello. I've got an nForce2 sound card, using the snd_intel8x0 module, and my sound volume is ridiculously low. I can't hear anything, and I've put everything at max in alsa-mixer. | 09:22 |
| Chikubu | xnv, dont know about typing, but maybe you can use the character map utility to get to the characters, would be a tedious copy past routine | 09:22 |
| Gault | Hello, can someone offer recommendations for Input method editors available specifically for simplified chinese? which is better?SCIM, UIM, FreeWNN, gcin, iiimf? | 09:22 |
| Chikubu | ഝ | 09:23 |
| srizz | DistroJockey: i didn't see it in synaptic | 09:23 |
| xnv | Chikubu: Too tedious I think. | 09:23 |
| asoare | ikonia: it feels slow, you know when you do the simplest action and you feel like you have to wait 0.5 seconds for that action to begin executing | 09:23 |
| user__ | ikonia: do you have an idea about what should I do in order to solve my problem (dist-upgrade fails because of "Bios device code 0x80 is being used by two disks", those 2 disks being sda and sdb); since when libata changes all hd* names to sd* names? This could be the problem.. | 09:23 |
| spoon_man | srizz, you can grab the .deb file from opera's site | 09:23 |
| magnetron | Werdna: some soundcards have a switch for "headphone output", try toggling that switch if you have one | 09:23 |
| ikonia | user__: libata is not the problem | 09:23 |
| ikonia | asoare: ok are you tasks visual tasks, or processing tasks | 09:23 |
| Werdna | magnetron: in alsa-mixer? | 09:24 |
| DistroJockey | srizz, yeah, it's not in the repo's | 09:24 |
| asoare | ikonia: i have run both os x and windows and they work way better, and i was expecting ubuntu to work better, because it's lighter | 09:24 |
| magnetron | Werdna: i guess | 09:24 |
| zloog | asoare: Is using open file dialogs particularly slow? | 09:24 |
| titusg | hi, I just upgraded my laptop to hardy and wireless stopped working. it no longer detects any networks and manual config doesn't help...any ideas? | 09:24 |
| asoare | ikonia: visual, i think the command line is ok | 09:24 |
| ikonia | asoare: ubuntu's not lighter, but thats not really the dicussion here. Are the tasks your doing visually slow, or are they slow to process | 09:24 |
| user__ | ikonia: If my ide harddisk and one of my sata hardisks are both assigned the same device code 0x80 this could be the problem, couldn't it? | 09:24 |
| wols_ | titusg: reinstall your wlan driver | 09:24 |
| spoon_man | titusg, wireless in hardy is apparently a little... finicky | 09:24 |
| srizz | DistroJockey: got it thanks again | 09:25 |
| ikonia | user__: that could be the problem, but seeing as libata doesn't do that, I'll say it again, libata is not the problem | 09:25 |
| Werdna | magnetron: I just looked, can';t see it there. | 09:25 |
| titusg | wols_: hi, how do I do that? | 09:25 |
| gandalfcome | can I redirect stdout stderr to different files? | 09:25 |
| DistroJockey | srizz, cool, no problem | 09:25 |
| ikonia | user__: that is the problem, the bios is identifying the two disks with the same address | 09:25 |
| Chikubu | xnv maybe remap your keboard | 09:25 |

| Werdna | gandalfcome: yes. 2>stdout >stdin | 09:25 |

| srizz | DistroJockey: yeah | 09:26 |
| zloog | titusg: http://pastebin.com/ the output of lspci and post a link here | 09:26 |
| xnv | Chikubu: No. There has to be a better method than that. I've seen people who tap a couple keys to get the Euro symbol. | 09:26 |
| xnv | Chikubu: And they did not remap their keyboard. | 09:26 |
| DistroJockey | srizz, it you browse to /usr/lib/firefox/plugins what do you see? | 09:26 |
| gandalfcome | Werdna: Can I also redirect stdout+stderr in 1 file and only stdout into another file? | 09:27 |
| Werdna | gandalfcome: possibly. Check man | 09:27 |
| wols_ | user__: I am a bit baffled since what you describe can't really happen. we need more context | 09:27 |
| Chikubu | Huffameg: is the mixer set to the right device "volume control" file>change device just a guess | 09:27 |
| DistroJockey | srizz, ohh, sorry, that's flash :( | 09:27 |
| zloog | gandalfcome: somecommand > stdoutfile 2> stderrfile | 09:27 |
| srizz | DistroJockey: flashplugin-alternative.so libjavaplugin.so | 09:28 |
| geirha | xnv: In my layout I use AltGr+e to get the euro | 09:28 |
| gandalfcome | zloog: did you see my second question? Can I also redirect stdout+stderr in 1 file and only stdout into another file? | 09:28 |
| DistroJockey | srizz, hmm, I don't have that libjavaplugin.so there | 09:28 |

| DistroJockey | Huffameg, I have a Bass "channel" when I run alsamixer in a terminal | 10:04 |
| spoon_man | huffameg, head back to System > Preferences > Sound, then highlight all those devices at the bottom | 10:05 |
| ne2 | wols_: I can't because when it logs out it kills the terminal. | 10:05 |
| wols_ | ne2: no it doesn't. open an xterm and start googleearth there | 10:05 |
| Huffameg | DistroJockey: you do? | 10:05 |
| wols_ | ne2: don't use the menu to start it | 10:05 |

| grndslm | what did the ubuntu devs break in the gnash packages?? supposedly the 8.2 vers that comes with hardy should work with youtube, but it doesn't | 10:06 |

| ne2 | wols_: really it kills the terminal. I have to log in again. | 10:06 |
| wols_ | check ~/*xsession-error* | 10:06 |
| wols_ | ne2: and what does glxinfo |grep -i direct say? | 10:07 |
| Huffameg | spoon_man: no, that doesn't help.. but, I've got only three devices in "sound" | 10:07 |
| spoon_man | huffameg, try double-clicking on the speaker icon next to the clock | 10:08 |
| spoon_man | on the panel bar | 10:08 |
| ozkelligirl | what program can i use to chat on yahoo chat? | 10:09 |
| Huffameg | spoon_man: yes.. I have all three devices showing, but they've been there all along and does not seem to have anything to dowith the bass | 10:09 |

| spoon_man | hmm, I dunno then | 10:09 |
| wols_ | ne2: that's your problem. get proper 3D accelerated drivers | 10:09 |

| mgolisch | zelrikriando: how did you install virtualbox? | 10:36 |
| mgolisch | that shouldnt happen if you used the virtualbox-ose package from the ubuntu repos | 10:37 |
| zelrikriando | mgolisch, not sure I actually installed it...ooh maybe | 10:37 |
| zloog | mgolisch: the same thing happend to me when I installed it through synaptic | 10:37 |
| zelrikriando | mgolisch, maybe I should just remove the relevant package so I wont be annoyed by it | 10:37 |
| mgolisch | if you used the one from the sun download page you have to do sudo /etc/init.d/vboxdrv setup or something | 10:37 |
| zelrikriando | I used the synaptic | 10:38 |

| zelrikriando | grub | 11:18 |
| Cristatus | cool | 11:18 |
| mappum | first of all | 11:18 |
| mappum | isnt there a way to run windows programds | 11:18 |
| mappum | and how reliable is that | 11:18 |
| zelrikriando | mappum, I have photoshop CS2 working | 11:19 |
| kernel_ghost | mappum: yes there is, not incredibly but some apps work well | 11:19 |
| zelrikriando | mappum, depends on the programs | 11:19 |
| mappum | i c | 11:19 |
| Slart | mappum: there is wine which you can use to run some windows apps.. | 11:19 |
| SWAMYCH | i have nokia n73 i want to connect to internet using nokia n73 how can i connect to internet in ubuntu using nokia n73 | 11:19 |
| daveskis | thats because the wine devs targeted cs2 | 11:19 |
| Mo0oSaH | tmapj: from my understanding full-encryption is more secure as it encrypts every bit of the data while handshake encrption doesn't encrypt every bit of the data | 11:19 |
| mappum | even high power things like games and directx? | 11:19 |
| mappum | i doubt that | 11:19 |
| hk47xx | the dates returned from javascript in ff are offset by +24 hours | 11:19 |
| mappum | but thatd b amazing | 11:19 |
| DistroJockey | zelrikriando, do you have a Windows partition that you need access to? | 11:19 |
| Slart | mappum: some games work.. those that work usually run a bit slower than in windows | 11:20 |
| zelrikriando | mappum, some not too old games work on Linux....HL2 ...WoW | 11:20 |
| mappum | really? | 11:20 |
| tmapj | Mo0oSaH, no not "full encryption" i said "FULL STREAM" or "hand shake" | 11:20 |
| mappum | i just got into playing that | 11:20 |
| mappum | a friend made me buy the orange box | 11:20 |

| DistroJockey | magazist, sec | 11:47 |
| brandonD | DistroJockey, ill try thank you :] | 11:47 |
| magazist | sec ? | 11:47 |
| magazist | ??? | 11:47 |
| _moro_bana_ | i forgot how to disable the internal speaker, please help | 11:47 |
| Slart | RonLut: you'll have to install to a ext3 or other filesystem.. you can create the ntfs partition later when the system is running | 11:47 |
| DistroJockey | magazist, it will get there, just give it time | 11:47 |
| RonLut | Slart: I'm not installing it on this drive... I'm just creating this drive... so what, should I choose: Do not use this partition? | 11:48 |
| Slart | RonLut: correct.. only setup the partitions you'll actually install on | 11:48 |
| magazist | ??? | 11:48 |
| m4cdaddy | ... | 11:48 |
| RonLut | Slart: ;) thanks again | 11:48 |
| brandonD | what did that do DistroJockey | 11:48 |
| Slart | RonLut: you're welcome | 11:48 |
| magazist | <DistroJockey> magazist, it will get there, just give it time | 11:49 |

| Widget_ | hey guys.. i have a feeling already wat the answer will be but just wondering, does ubuntu use alot of resources ? i managed to install WinXP pro ( plz dont hurt me) on a really old laptop, 350mhz+, 64mb ram, 6gb hdd (lol), and it runs (sloppy with effects turned off), just wondering if ubuntu uses less resources then win ? | 11:49 |
| DistroJockey | brandonD, from xorg.conf | 11:49 |
| brandonD | DistroJockey, thanks im sorry haha i should have looked ;] | 11:50 |
| m4cdaddy | Widget_, it uses a lot less | 11:50 |
| DistroJockey | magazist, it has to download a bit first | 11:50 |
| Widget_ | cool, might try install see how it goes | 11:50 |
| DistroJockey | brandonD, no problem :) | 11:50 |
| m4cdaddy | Widget_, i think if you get xubutu you will have almost no problem | 11:50 |
| gluer | widget: could always use an older distro? | 11:50 |
| magazist | how to long i must to download ? | 11:51 |
| Widget_ | cool, might give xubuntu a go | 11:51 |
| Widget_ | been testing out a few smaller dists cause it old machine (dsl, puppy), but i like buntu series | 11:51 |
| phist | how much more resources do newer versions need? for example 7.10 -> 8.04 | 11:51 |
| DistroJockey | phist, not much more | 11:52 |
| Widget_ | wat desktop does xubuntu use ? | 11:52 |
| bazhang | Widget_, you may also consider fluxbuntu | 11:53 |
| DistroJockey | Widget_, xfce | 11:53 |
| Widget_ | cool thanx, never heard of Flux | 11:53 |
| bazhang | they even have a channel here :) | 11:53 |
| Widget_ | there was an older desktop starting with x also.. thoiugh cant remember wat it was called | 11:54 |

| dlozarie | hi everyone! can I get some help with installing LAMP? I'm following instructions from this page: http://www.supriyadisw.net/2006/12/lamp-installation-on-ubuntu | 12:02 |
| the_eraser | if i set driver to evdev the mouse doesnt work | 12:02 |
| dlozarie | I'm stuck at mysqladmin -u root password newpassword | 12:02 |
| brandonD | dlozarie, i dont think anybody uses lamp anymore ? | 12:02 |
| dlozarie | brandonD, what do they use then? | 12:02 |
| m4cdaddy | brandonD, i think most people use LAMP | 12:03 |
| [[thufir]] | apt-cache search netbeans returns on v5.5 not 6.0 how do I find out why? | 12:03 |
| the_eraser | anyone into mice? | 12:03 |
| GeekSquadSF | some of the guys in the server room told me to look here for help with setting up the gui on server | 12:03 |
| brandonD | m4cdaddy, ive never used it im sorry | 12:03 |
| m4cdaddy | brandonD, most websites are run on the LAMP stack | 12:03 |
| dlozarie | brandonD, I'm looking to create a WordPress theme and I want to test the theme on my desktop, not on my website's server. | 12:03 |
| dlozarie | any suggestions? if not LAMP, then what should I use? | 12:04 |
| Werdna | dlozarie: LAMP isn't very difficult. What's wrong with apt-get install apache2 apache2-php5 mysql-server ? | 12:04 |
| m4cdaddy | dlozarie, i think you might want to use LAMP | 12:04 |
| [[thufir]] | dlozarie: xammp | 12:04 |
| dlozarie | Werdna, done, done and done. | 12:04 |
| m4cdaddy | Werdna, you forgot a few | 12:04 |
| wols_ | [[thufir]]: no! | 12:04 |
| Bodsda | What causes ubuntu to drop to busybox shell? | 12:04 |
| [[thufir]] | rofl | 12:04 |
| wols_ | Bodsda: when it can't mount / | 12:04 |
| brandonD | Werdna, thats exactly what i was saying but i didnt remember its been a while | 12:04 |
| dlozarie | this website says I need to type in these: mysqladmin -u root password newpassword mysqladmin -h root@local-machine-name -u root -p password newpassword sudo /etc/init.d/mysql restart | 12:05 |
| gluer | ive got 7.8gig ram detected in my ubuntu hardy? will it actually use it? | 12:05 |
| marcel-eee-pc | how do i get permisson to rewrite a halt file in etc/init.d/ halt??? | 12:05 |
| Bodsda | wols_, but wouldnt that spark a grub error 22 (or is it 21 or maybe 17) | 12:05 |
| wols_ | gluer: if it's detected, then yes | 12:05 |
| m4cdaddy | Werdna, php-mysql, mysql-admin ehh not so sure those are correct but those might be needed | 12:05 |
| wols_ | Bodsda: no | 12:05 |
| brandonD | DistroJockey, so did you find anything in that clump of **** | 12:05 |
| DistroJockey | brandonD, sorry, I'm not up on my nvidia config | 12:05 |
| Bodsda | wols_, so what steps should i take to resolve this issue? | 12:05 |
| gluer | wols: what for? | 12:06 |
| andre | wew | 12:06 |
| wols_ | gluer: for your programs | 12:06 |
| brandonD | DistroJockey, so basically no dice :[ | 12:06 |
| andre | f*** with windows | 12:06 |
| wols_ | Bodsda: read the error as a first step | 12:06 |
| gluer | wols: VBox? | 12:06 |
| brandonD | andre, dont bypass thats a NO NO | 12:06 |
| DistroJockey | brandonD, you added that load "glx" at the end? | 12:06 |
| andre | heheheh | 12:06 |
| brandonD | DistroJockey, nope ive never edited it | 12:06 |
| Bodsda | wols_, it skims through lines and lines of text really fast then drops to busybox with no error message | 12:06 |
| dlozarie | pointing my browser to http://localhost/phpmyadmin gives me a "not found" page. | 12:06 |
| wols_ | gluer: whatever your run. detected means there are 7.8GB for ubuntu to use | 12:06 |
| wols_ | Bodsda: there are error messages | 12:07 |
| jasonwood | Man ,I'v got a problem,After I update My linux,I Can't enter the windows System,what can i do? | 12:07 |
| DistroJockey | brandonD, looks to have been edited by something, maybe comment it out (after making a backup ofcourse) | 12:07 |
| Bodsda | wols_, where? in the speeding text i cant read or in busybox shell? | 12:07 |
| wols_ | jasonwood: you describe your problem better. is windows showing up in menu.lst? | 12:07 |

| wols_ | *key | 12:08 |
| brandonD | DistroJockey, i will be back in a sec (or a min if it doesnt work) | 12:08 |
| dlozarie | hmm. maybe I should give XAMMP a try. what terminal command do I type in to install XAMMP on my 'puter? | 12:08 |
| DistroJockey | brandonD, *nods* | 12:08 |
| wols_ | Bodsda: no error -> no help from us. we don't have a crystal ball | 12:08 |
| wols_ | jasonwood: do NOT PM me | 12:08 |
| Bodsda | wols_, so in the speeding text then,.,. cheers, il try and look | 12:08 |
| jasonwood | ok | 12:08 |
| jasonwood | how to communicate with you? | 12:09 |
| Bodsda | jasonwood, if you want to pm someone, ask their permission first | 12:09 |
| jasonwood | ok | 12:09 |
| bazhang | !pm | jasonwood | 12:09 |
| ubott2 | jasonwood: Please ask your questions in the channel so that other people can also benefit AND help you. Please don't PM a user in the channel without asking first, some find it rude. | 12:09 |

| jasonwood | I update my linux | 12:09 |
| wols_ | m4cdaddy: please do not tell people to use that in here. thank you | 12:10 |
| dlozarie | wols_, okay. | 12:10 |
| dlozarie | m4cdaddy, thanks. | 12:10 |
| m4cdaddy | wols_, why? | 12:10 |
| jasonwood | I update my linux,then there are 3 kenerls ,it says stage 1.5 | 12:10 |
| brandonD | DistroJockey, didnt work :'[ | 12:10 |
| gluer | wols: one more question mate, would you install winxp or vista if you had 7.8gig ram, considering the overheads of both and the effects on hardy? | 12:10 |
| wols_ | m4cdaddy: cause this is #ubuntu, not #apachefriends | 12:10 |
| gluer | wols: using VBox | 12:10 |
| jasonwood | but when i select windows xp,it says stage 2.0 | 12:11 |
| wols_ | gluer: neither. this is #ubuntu, not ##windows | 12:11 |
| tARrAScH | Hello :)! What does it exactly mean when i rightclick a folder -> share options -> and then 'sharing it'. To who do I share it to? Is this the easiest way for me to share a file between to computers connected via the internet and router? | 12:11 |
| m4cdaddy | wols_, so i cant tell him what to run on his Ubuntu machine? | 12:11 |
| DistroJockey | brandonD, bummer. The only other thing I noticed was Option"AddARGBVisuals""True"Option"AddARGBGLXVisuals""True" | 12:11 |
| jasonwood | i can't enter windows | 12:11 |
| wols_ | m4cdaddy: not non ubuntu software in here especially when the software is availeble for ubuntu | 12:11 |
| brandonD | DistroJockey, comment it out? | 12:11 |
| DistroJockey | brandonD, I'm pretty sure only one of those is right | 12:11 |
| m4cdaddy | wols_, we already tried that | 12:11 |
| brandonD | jasonwood, thats because of GRUB | 12:11 |
| jasonwood | I update my linux,then there are 3 kenerls ,it says stage 1.5,but when i select windows xp,it says stage 2.0, i can't enter windows | 12:11 |
| Bodsda | jasonwood, google for 'grub hangs on stage2 windows ubuntu' | 12:11 |
| DistroJockey | brandonD, not sure which one though | 12:11 |
| m4cdaddy | wols_, read the convo, you will notice we tried LAMP | 12:12 |
| brandonD | !grub | jasonwood | 12:12 |
| ubott2 | jasonwood: grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto | 12:12 |
| wols_ | m4cdaddy: or rahter you can. but then YOU and YOU ONLY will support him. and not in here | 12:12 |
| jasonwood | ok | 12:12 |
| jasonwood | i will try | 12:12 |
| jasonwood | tahnks | 12:12 |
| jasonwood | thanks | 12:12 |
| [[thufir]] | is it hard to install netbeans 6.x on ubuntu 7.x ? | 12:12 |
| brandonD | DistroJockey, ill comment one out then ill comment the other out | 12:12 |
| DistroJockey | brandonD, think AddARGBVisuals is the wrong one | 12:12 |
| wols_ | !info netbeans | 12:12 |
| ubott2 | netbeans (source: netbeans): Integrated Development Environment. In component universe, is optional. Version 6.0.1-0ubuntu2 (hardy), package size 813 kB, installed size 1924 kB | 12:12 |
| brandonD | DistroJockey, then if neither seems to fix ill comment botrh out at the same time | 12:12 |
| Bodsda | bazhang, mind if i pm? | 12:12 |
| DistroJockey | brandonD, :) | 12:12 |
| wols_ | |thunder: only if you think apt-get is hard to use | 12:13 |
| bazhang | Bodsda, no prob :) | 12:13 |
| wols_ | [[thufir]]: ^^ | 12:13 |
| rausb0 | !info netbeans gutsy | 12:13 |
| m4cdaddy | wols_, i support ubuntu but i'm not going to tell him that i cant help him because he doen't want full LAMP on his desktop | 12:13 |
| ubott2 | Package netbeans does not exist in gutsy | 12:13 |
| jasonwood | i come from China,I am new | 12:13 |
| wols_ | m4cdaddy: then be quiet or help him in #linux or #apachefriends. and now take your stuff to an OT channel | 12:13 |
| jasonwood | I can't spell that fast | 12:13 |
| [[thufir]] | wols_: I only get results for 5.5 from apt | 12:13 |
| jasonwood | sorry | 12:13 |
| iac_lizardking | helllo | 12:13 |
| gluer | wols: i appreciate your loyalty ;-) however the base os is ubuntu, im just trying to ensure it remains stable for customer | 12:14 |
| wols_ | [[thufir]]: then run a current ubuntu | 12:14 |
| Bodsda | jasonwood, no need to apologise | 12:14 |
| iac_lizardking | I have a problem with Compiz and Gtk-window-decorator | 12:14 |

| [[thufir]] | wols_: do you mean re-install the OS, or do an update, or do you mean upgrade? | 12:14 |
| dlozarie | so I wanna try out LAMP first. however, http://localhost/phpmyadmin yields a 404 page. what did I do wrong? | 12:14 |
| ubott2 | Launchpad bug 242504 in compiz "gtk-window-decorator does not show metacity theme correctly" [Undecided,New] | 12:14 |
| wols_ | gluer: if you want help for something else than ubuntu using something else than ubuntu methods then you are WRONG here. try ##linux then | 12:14 |
| DistroJockey | brandonD, Hardy's xorg.conf is very minimal as it's supposed to be automatic | 12:15 |
| [[thufir]] | dlozarie: you probably need to start apache | 12:15 |
| wols_ | dlozarie: make a symlink from your phpmyadmin dir to the www root directory | 12:15 |
| dlozarie | thufir, what's the command for that? | 12:15 |
| gluer | wols: i hear you, cheers. | 12:15 |

| wols_ | bullgard4: fdisk it | 12:17 |
| DistroJockey | brandonD, aye, it needs work | 12:17 |
| brandonD | DistroJockey, yes it does i wish i knew how to code (cause i would do it the right way the FIRST time ) | 12:17 |
| wols_ | brandonD: not as easy as you think it is... | 12:17 |
| bullgard4 | wols_: I will try. | 12:17 |
| brandonD | DistroJockey, sorry but im not harping on ubuntu at all so dont take it that way | 12:18 |

| DistroJockey | brandonD, I know what you mean :) | 12:18 |
| wols_ | brandonD: but you're righ in a way. what the X strike force and the Xorg team did there pretty much deserves a lot of cuss words. non nice cusswords | 12:18 |
| Bangers | why dont sites in Firefox3 under ubuntu look the same as XP/Firefox3? | 12:18 |
| dlozarie | http://paste.ubuntu.com/22826/ | 12:18 |

| DistroJockey | brandonD, :) | 12:19 |
| phist | Bangers, fonts maybe? | 12:19 |
| wols_ | Bangers: cause html was not designed to look the same everywhere | 12:19 |
| brandonD | wols_, :] you agree | 12:19 |
| dlozarie | [[thufir]], altho when I go to http://localhost/, the words "it works!" appear. | 12:19 |
| brandonD | Bangers, cause its the same exact program? | 12:19 |
| wols_ | brandonD: they changed it sorta back in debian sid already so I heard. probably too late for hardy | 12:19 |
| brandonD | Bangers, nvm read your question wrong :p | 12:19 |
| wols_ | dlozarie: I told you what to do | 12:19 |
| phist | Bangers, different how? | 12:20 |
| Bangers | phist: yep its definitely the fonts. the pages *are* correct, just hte fonts look aweful | 12:20 |

| philh | Spencer_tt, ok, there is an alternative install CD image provided for each ubuntu release, you need to get this | 13:08 |
| phimic | Spencer_tt: did it hang random? how often did it hang? | 13:09 |
| juro2 | hi, what package do I need to create .jar files? | 13:09 |
| Spencer_tt | philh: which one? | 13:09 |
| rick111 | i want to create a .htaccess file, no problems, but I'm having issues saving it. i tried using 'vi .htaccess' but that tool seems to lack the edit option, think i need to download the full version. what other command line edit tool can I use? | 13:09 |
| philh | alternatively you might want to try a distro that doesn't have such massive requirements for the simple installer | 13:09 |
| hans-solo | how do I see what display card I have on my laptop | 13:09 |
| bullgard4 | DistroJockey: The /dev/sdb USB thumb drive will not be mounted if I unplug and replug it. | 13:09 |
| Spencer_tt | philh: tried 4/5 didn't recognise my card | 13:10 |
| bringatowel | gluer, hmm that is weird, you should be able to get it to reset the video config and at least load at low resolution | 13:10 |
| maja | any one know what i need in my apt source file to download sun-java6-plugin ? | 13:10 |
| juro2 | rick111, sounds like you don't have the necessary rights to save into the directory | 13:10 |
| philh | Spencer_tt, your card? | 13:10 |
| Spencer_tt | can't I just install the packages from cd/hdd? | 13:10 |
| DistroJockey | bullgard4, it works on other PC's? | 13:10 |
| gluer | bat: yeh it doesnt, even in low res, the screen goes blank then just beeps | 13:10 |
| hans-solo | how do I see what display card I have on my laptop | 13:10 |
| rick111 | juro2 when vi opens, it wont go to edit mode, usually I type 'ESC - I' but that does nothing, not a permission issue | 13:10 |
| vedchron | rick111: vi has separate viewing and editing modes, you might want to try pico or nano as an editor | 13:10 |
| rick111 | vedchron thanks | 13:11 |
| Spencer_tt | philh: Intel 8245 | 13:11 |
| bullgard4 | DistroJockey: It works on the same PC under Windows XP. | 13:11 |
| philh | Spencer_tt, http://www.ubuntu.com/GetUbuntu/download just check the alt CD checkbox | 13:11 |
| Dr_willis | if you really use vi a lot - you may want to instgall the vim-full package also. | 13:11 |
| juro2 | rick111, try i(nsert) or a(add) | 13:11 |
| rick111 | cheers guys, you've been great | 13:11 |
| hans-solo | hello | 13:12 |

| the_eraser | i get this from x log: "inappropriate ioctl for device" what does it mean? | 13:39 |
| philh | jonny_, well, pidgin uses XML for config files so it should be fairly straightforward to create the config files and then copy and paste your old setup into them | 13:39 |
| the_eraser | the mouse wont work with the evdev module... | 13:40 |

| hans-solo | I am trying to get the full reslution on my laptop, presently there is only 800X600. my display card is Intel Corporation 82852/82855 GM/GME/PM/GMV Processor to I/O Controller (rev 02) | 13:44 |
| bullgard4 | ltcabral: I will not. | 13:44 |
| ltcabral | philh: i already searched :P | 13:44 |
| rubydiamond | thanks Pici | 13:44 |
| hans-solo | sorry the display card is Intel Corporation 82852/855GM Integrated Graphics Device (rev 02) | 13:45 |
| pioneerisloud | maek: well the windows shares are currently setup using a DNS server and active directory. So I need to have a user name / password to get to them. I do believe I'm doing this right, but it just says "Error, cannot connect" | 13:45 |
| maek | TrevorP | 13:45 |
| bullgard4 | ronlut: lshw | 13:45 |
| rubydiamond | Pici, it does not work.. it goes to amazon search | 13:46 |
| wols_ | Bod: blkid output too | 13:46 |
| the_eraser | this is apparently a hal issue | 13:46 |
| Pici | rubydiamond: I dont know if its possible then, you may need to use the gnome run tool via alt-f2 | 13:46 |
| hans-solo | can someone plesae help me figure out how to get my Display card to show full resolution | 13:46 |
| SSDF | go to resoulution settings ? | 13:47 |

| wols_ | Bod: your 80GB disk is / right? | 13:47 |
| Jimmie | Good day. I am looking for some support in setting my networking up. I'm running the latest version of Ubuntu on a HP Pavillion ZD8000. Has a broadcom wireless adaptor so i know im going to have to play around with the drivers. However I can't even get ethernet to work. Using static IP settings on my ethernet port where I provide the details and DHCP both result in no connectivity whatsoever. What can I do? | 13:48 |
| jpds | !envy > maek | 13:48 |
| Bodsda | wols_, no, 80gig is /home | 13:48 |
| Bodsda | wols_, 120gig (sdc1) is / | 13:48 |
| GeekSquadSF | Jimmie you're able to show your ssid right? | 13:48 |
| wols_ | Bodsda: duh! | 13:48 |
| ronlut | how can I run lshw-gtk as root? | 13:49 |
| wols_ | Bodsda: change # groot=(hd0,0) | 13:49 |
| Jimmie | This is for wired i'm after, I know wireless won't work, GeekSquadSF until I get some custom drivers. | 13:49 |
| jpds | ronlut: put gksudo in fron of tit | 13:49 |
| Bodsda | wols_, is that it? | 13:49 |
| hawtsauce | I read the instructions and still can't figure it out | 13:49 |
| wols_ | and change it to # groot (hd2,0) | 13:49 |
| maek | pioneerisloud, SYSTEM > ADMINISTRATION > NETWORK TOOLS > PING | 13:49 |
| wols_ | Bodsda: the sudo update-grub | 13:49 |
| wols_ | Bodsda: yes | 13:49 |
| Bodsda | wols_, thanks alot dude, il try now | 13:49 |
| hans-solo | can someone please help me figure out how to get my Display card to show full resolution the display card is Intel Corporation 82852/855GM Integrated Graphics Device (rev 02) The Hardware list is empty, and the "Screen Resolutions" does not show more than 800X600 | 13:49 |
| wols_ | your root must show root(hd2,0) | 13:49 |
| wols_ | hans-solo: what driver? | 13:50 |
| aor | jimmie, is youe wired conn listed as eth0? | 13:50 |
| erUSUL | ikasa4: on debian/ubuntu all runlevels are equal except 0, 1 and 6 | 13:50 |
| wols_ | !915resolution | 13:50 |
| ubottu | Factoid 915resolution not found | 13:50 |
| Jimmie | aor: Yes. | 13:50 |
| Bodsda | wols_, hang on, groot=(hd0,0) or (hd2,0)? | 13:50 |
| hans-solo | Intel Corporation 82852/855GM Integrated Graphics Device | 13:50 |
| wols_ | Bodsda: (hd2,0) | 13:50 |
| pioneerisloud | maek: yes i can ping my server just fine | 13:50 |
| wols_ | Bodsda: and the # in front is i mportant | 13:50 |
| wols_ | hans-solo: the driver. not your hardware | 13:50 |
| Bodsda | wols_, yep, cheers | 13:50 |
| aor | have u tried taking the interface down and back up again? | 13:51 |
| ronlut | where in lshw can I see the temperature? | 13:51 |
| wols_ | Bodsda: and don't forget update-grub | 13:51 |
| erUSUL | !sensors | ronlut | 13:51 |
| hawtsauce | Nevermind then | 13:51 |
| ubottu | ronlut: You might find something useful at: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SensorInstallHowto | 13:51 |
| wols_ | ronlut: nowhere. "acpi" can do it | 13:51 |
| wols_ | ronlut: or lm-sensors or mbmon | 13:51 |
| maek | pioneerisloud, are you sure on the Server 2003 box that you have given appropriate permissions for the files to be shared ?? | 13:51 |
| bullgard4 | ronlut: As far as I know you cannot see it using lshw. | 13:52 |
| hawtsauce | And, I'm outta here. | 13:52 |
| pioneerisloud | maek: no i'm not for sure at this point....it works 100% fine in Windows and has for YEARS. However I do HAVE to use a login and password to get them. And I have to be on the proper workgroup or join the domain. | 13:52 |
| Bod | wols_: how can i do update-grub on live cd? | 13:52 |
| Jimmie | aor: with ifconfig eth0 down then up? Yeah, doesn't make any difference at all :( | 13:52 |
| ikasa4 | what is envy? | 13:53 |
| Bod | !envy | 13:53 |
| ikasa4 | d | 13:53 |
| ubottu | envyng is an updated version of the *UNSUPPORTED* envy package. It is now part of the ubuntu universe repository (envyng-gtk OR envyng-qt) and has community support. As an early version, its results may vary but this should be used over the unsupported envy package. | 13:53 |
| aor | i assume you have a link light . r u sure you have your gateway set right? can you ping the gateway ip? | 13:53 |
| Jimmie | ill try to set the thing to static again, at the moment it's on DHCP | 13:54 |
| Jimmie | then i'll give it a ping. | 13:54 |
| Jimmie | last time i tried it didnt do much mind | 13:54 |
| aor | k | 13:54 |
| Bod | wols_: when i try sudo update-grub i get a message saying theres no /boot/grub folder -- how can i get it to look in /media/root/boot/grub ? | 13:54 |
| GeekSquadSF | hey pioneer... it's in the local security policy for server 2003... there's a setting somewhere in there that allows for unknown users to be treated as guests. it won't like the linux machine cause of the netbios naming isn't available | 13:54 |
| wols_ | Bod: bind mount /dev and /proc and chroot into the hdd ubuntu install | 13:54 |
| hans-solo | wols_: how do I know what driver I have | 13:55 |
| aor | make sure you bounce the itfce after the change | 13:55 |
| Bod | wols_: i have no idea how to do that... what is update grub going to do? can i do it by hand? | 13:55 |
| pioneerisloud | geeksqaud: you know i do remember turning something of that sort off since my last venture into linux...that might just be it! | 13:55 |
| Jimmie | aor: Bounce the itfce? | 13:55 |
| pioneerisloud | i just don't remember where its at.... | 13:55 |
| aor | down, then up | 13:55 |
| SSDF | I need someone willing to spend a bit of time who is experianced at ubuntu to help me get my sound working, Its driving me nuts. | 13:55 |
| Jimmie | oh i see :) | 13:55 |
| wols_ | Bod: it will rewrite your kernel entries to use the proper root(hd2.0) | 13:56 |
| erdem_ | #ubuntu-tr | 13:56 |
| erUSUL | Bod: "sudo chroot /media/root/" | 13:56 |
| hans-solo | Is there a seperate chanel wher I can get help with display drivers | 13:56 |
| wols_ | !pm | hans-solo | 13:56 |
| ubottu | hans-solo: Please ask your questions in the channel so that other people can also benefit AND help you. Please don't PM a user in the channel without asking first, some find it rude. | 13:56 |
| wols_ | hans-solo: no | 13:56 |
| berzerka | maek, ikonia: i can imagine a variety of reasons not to use the default kernel. in this case i want to enable usb verbose debugging support. | 13:56 |
| Bod | wols_: ok could i not do that by hand? erUSUL -- cheers dude, -- how do i do the bind mount thing? | 13:56 |
| wols_ | hans-solo: your Xorg.0.log will tell you | 13:56 |
| GeekSquadSF | as far as getting the windows machines to look at the shared file without authenticating... you just have to set the local security policy to allow "unkown" access... good luck with getting windows to like it | 13:56 |
| wols_ | Bod: you can but when you're done, do it with update-grub again to make sure | 13:57 |
| Jimmie | aor: Still doesn't work :( | 13:57 |
| berzerka | but i am slowly coming to the conclusion that ubuntu is just not suited as a developer's system... | 13:57 |
| maek | berzerka, if you need usb verbose debugging support then you are a developer and this is an inappropriate channel to ask that sort of question | 13:57 |
| Jimmie | aor: Was ubuntu supposed to install network drivers at installation? As this is a laptop so it was not plugged into the ethernet at the time of installation. | 13:57 |
| ikonia | berzerka: your welcome to your opinion - your wrong, but your welcome to it | 13:58 |
| aor | can u ping the gateway ip? (not the host name) | 13:58 |
| Jimmie | connect: Network is unreachable. | 13:58 |
| Bod | wols_: im getting a message about a new menu.lst available, do i want to install the new one or keep my modified one? | 13:58 |
| berzerka | maek: i am a software developer, not an ubuntu developer.. where shall i ask the question. regarding ubuntu, i consider myself a "user". | 13:58 |
| Zeee | http://www.sexy-lena.com/?uid=632508 | 13:58 |
| erUSUL | Bod: mount --bind sudo mount --bind /dev /media/ubuntu/dev | 13:58 |
| ikonia | berzerka: what is your actual question ? | 13:58 |
| erUSUL | Bod: sudo mount --bind /dev /media/root/dev | 13:59 |
| Zeee | http://www.sexy-lena.com/?uid=632508 | 13:59 |
| berzerka | ikonia: how do i manually compile/install the kernel on ubuntu systems? | 13:59 |
| Pici | !kernel | berzerka | 13:59 |
| ubottu | berzerka: The core of the Ubuntu Operating System is the Linux kernel: see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel - You shouldn't have to compile your own, but if you're convinced you do, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel/Compile - See also: /msg ubottu stages | 13:59 |
| Pici | berzerka: Those links should sort you out | 13:59 |
| berzerka | aah there we go, thanks! | 13:59 |
| wols_ | Bod: message from what? | 13:59 |
| ikonia | berzerka: which kernel option did you chose to enable "USB verbose logging" ? | 13:59 |
| Bod | wols_: sudo update-grub (after chrooting | 13:59 |
| Bod | ) | 13:59 |
| wols_ | berzerka: with kernel-package | 13:59 |
| aor | jimmie: yes wired drivers should have been added at install | 13:59 |
| Zeee | http://www.sexy-lena.com/?uid=632508 | 14:00 |
| gabbler | berzerka: sorry to jump in but have you heard of gentoo | 14:00 |
| pioneerisloud | geeksquad: i think i might have found the setting on my windows box....going to try it out now and see if i can logon now | 14:00 |
| wols_ | Bod: say yes but pastebin the menu.lst again | 14:00 |
| maek | Zeee, very hot | 14:00 |
| Jimmie | so are you saying because ubuntu didn't detect them it may not have installed them, aor? | 14:00 |
| hans-solo | wols_: What is Xorg.0.log | 14:00 |
| GeekSquadSF | hell.. most of the wireless packages are included for intel wireless sets too | 14:00 |
| wols_ | hans-solo: a logfile | 14:00 |
| berzerka | gabbler: yes, i am using it at home, and am very very confident with it. | 14:00 |
| ikonia | berzerka: which kernel option did you chose to enable "USB verbose logging" ? | 14:01 |
| aor | no, not what i'm saying. wired drivers will inatall even if the network is not connected during install | 14:01 |
| hans-solo | Where is this Log file? | 14:01 |
| berzerka | ikonia: i am just looking it up, hang on. | 14:01 |
| Jimmie | yeah i thought so | 14:01 |
| ikonia | berzerka: thanks | 14:01 |
| Jimmie | I'm not sure why it isn't working... But i'm not exactly very linux-minded | 14:01 |
| aor | does it work while your set up for dhcp? | 14:01 |
| berzerka | ikonia: CONFIG_USB_DEBUG it is | 14:01 |
| Jimmie | No it doesn't work at all | 14:01 |
| hans-solo | Is there a simple way to download and install a display driver like in other operating systems | 14:01 |
| Jimmie | According to the gnome network connection info it doesnt take any IPs at all | 14:02 |
| maek | hans-solo | !envy | 14:02 |
| gabbler | berzerka: i have tried and found it hard to get going and in the end wanted a working system rather than a really configured system, but the kernal stuff in gentoo does apply to ubuntu as i have got the sources from kernel.org and compiled it | 14:02 |
| aor | jimmie: greyed out? | 14:02 |
| maek | !envy | hans-solo | 14:02 |
| ubottu | hans-solo: envyng is an updated version of the *UNSUPPORTED* envy package. It is now part of the ubuntu universe repository (envyng-gtk OR envyng-qt) and has community support. As an early version, its results may vary but this should be used over the unsupported envy package. | 14:02 |
| ikonia | berzerka: is it a module option or just a y/n option ? | 14:02 |
| Jimmie | no just 0.0.0.0 | 14:02 |
| esperegu | anyone knows how to use 'smb://' in kubuntu (probably same in ubuntu)? it worked but after upgrading to 804 i only get The file or folder smb://myip/folder does not exist. | 14:03 |
| wols_ | esperegu: would be a kioslave most likely | 14:03 |
| gabbler | esperegu: do you want to use a mount or smb? | 14:03 |
| berzerka | ikonia: y/n. | 14:03 |
| wols_ | esperegu: try smbclient -L ip | 14:03 |
| Bod | wols_: menu.lst with edited groot -- http://paste.ubuntu.com/22848/ -- menu.lst with update-grub -- http://paste.ubuntu.com/22849/ -- rebooting now,.,. cheers for all your help dude | 14:03 |
| ikonia | berzerka: thats a pain. Thank you | 14:04 |
| SSDF | easy question : | 14:04 |
| gabbler | esperegu: or mount -t cifs | 14:04 |
| SSDF | when it says go to a shell and type ______ | 14:04 |
| SSDF | what it a shell ? | 14:04 |
| esperegu | gabbler: I just try to reach a dir now and then. | 14:04 |
| wols_ | Bodsda: you need a current kernel! | 14:04 |
| maek | shell = terminal | 14:04 |
| SSDF | hah ok | 14:04 |
| esperegu | gabbler: not a permanent mount | 14:04 |
| SSDF | I thought it might me | 14:04 |
| berzerka | gabbler: you mean you are using vanilla sources on your ubuntu system? | 14:04 |
| ikonia | berzerka: do you want to package this kernel up or install it ? | 14:05 |
| berzerka | ikonia: i just want to install it, to be able to see the verbose debug output. | 14:05 |
| gabbler | esperegu: well i used to use the smbclient but found that the mount was more flexible, it is only one command and then mounts it as a normal folder so you can do normal cp, mv etc | 14:05 |
| Bodsda | wols_, whats that about a kernel? i now get grub error 15: file not found | 14:05 |
| berzerka | ikonia: i guess that the standard (manual) installation procedure will work, i just wanted to know wether there are some "ubuntu-pitfalls"... | 14:05 |
| Jimmie | no idea then, aor? | 14:06 |
| wols_ | Bodsda: you said your / is sdc1? | 14:06 |
| gabbler | berzerka: yes, i fiddled with gentoo, had a horror story with wireless and gnome and then took what i learnt about the kernel to tweak the ubuntu one | 14:06 |
| ikonia | berzerka: standard install should work more so if your using the ubuntu source which you said you where, you'lld be fine. Update grub to point at your vmlinuz image (maybe make an initrd if you want) | 14:06 |
| Bodsda | wols_, yes, im using the -16 kernel because i had probs with the -19 | 14:07 |
| berzerka | ikonia: instead i was told not to use a "custom" kernel, what always sets me up... sorry for saying ubuntu was not suited for developers... | 14:07 |
| ikonia | berzerka: using a custom kernel is not advisable as a.) it's outside your package manager b.) the software ubuntu packages wont be "verfied" against it c.) its hard to support, but you have a specific requirment so thats the only option, so do it | 14:07 |
| wols_ | Bodsda: it'S possible your BIOS sees sdc1 as first disk while linux sees it as 3rd | 14:08 |
| Bodsda | wols_, yeah, maybe, ive had probs with that before | 14:08 |
| wols_ | Bodsda: try the following: # groot (hd0,0) and in the kernel line root=UUID of sdc1 | 14:08 |
| berzerka | ikonia: of course, i understand that. but i only want to enable the debug output, i don't know how this should affect anything... (what of course assumes that i know approximately what i am doing, and i know that is not true of all your userbase (which is not a bad thing)) | 14:09 |
| ikonia | berzerka: shouldn't effect anything | 14:09 |
| wols_ | Bodsda: I'm a moron.... the UUID used in your menu.lst doesn't even exist in the blkid output... | 14:09 |
| bullgard4 | My USB thumb drive works on Windows XP. I tried to impose it a FAT32 file system using cfdisk. Now sudo fdisk -l shows that /dev/sdb has a Disk identifier: 0x00000000. What went wrong? | 14:10 |
| Bodsda | wols_, ok, weird,.,. so what do you want me to do? change groot? | 14:10 |
| maek | berzerka, if you are a software developer there are better places to get help rather than the general ubuntu chat channel | 14:10 |
| wols_ | Bodsda: change groot back and make sure the UUID points to sdc1 now (see blkid output) | 14:10 |
| berzerka | maek: regarding ubuntu usage? | 14:10 |
| wols_ | the question now is: where does update-grub get the UUID from to change it | 14:11 |
| wols_ | Bodsda: # kopt=root=UUID=572714c3-d7e5-40e7-9302-a39f309bbaf6 ro | 14:11 |
| maek | berzerka, you should have support packages in place at your enterprise for technical support | 14:11 |
| wols_ | there. change that to the /dev/sdc1 UUID and update-grub | 14:11 |
| berzerka | the topic says support channel, not chat channel. if you tell me where i would better ask such questions, i will do so in the future. hmm #ubuntu-kernel comes to mind.. | 14:12 |
| hyppias | would the eeepc boot ubuntu quicker if I would compile my own kernel on it ? | 14:12 |
| berzerka | maek: ^ | 14:12 |
| maek | berzerka, there are great Companies that specialize in Linux support and they have quite reasonable fees | 14:12 |
| wols_ | hyppias: about a millisecond maybe | 14:12 |
| Huffameg | hi! how do I add languages in openoffice? | 14:12 |
| maek | berzerka, but again where you get enterprise support is off topic for this channel | 14:12 |
| Bodsda | wols_, so change groot back to (hd0,0) and edit the boot line to have the correct uuid of sdc1? | 14:13 |
| berzerka | maek: alright, lets stop this. | 14:13 |
| wols_ | Bodsda: yes | 14:13 |

| wols_ | Bod: at least for testing purposes | 14:18 |
| Jimmie | Can anyone help me? My eth0 refuses to work and I have no idea why. It can't get DHCP, i can't ping anything, static IP doesnt help anything.. can someone help me track down the problem? | 14:19 |
| Bod | wols_: so what do you want me to do? | 14:19 |
| berzerka | maek: what are you talking about? i am an university student trying to implement a userspace USB device driver on a ubuntu system! | 14:19 |

| berzerka | maek: what is this "enterprise" you are constantly talking about? canonical? | 14:20 |
| Jimmie | yep, up. | 14:20 |
| philh | berzerka, i think it's safe to assume that devs will rarely turn up here, maybe there's an ubuntu dev channel somewhere | 14:20 |
| Pici | berzerka: Just ignore him | 14:20 |
| backdraft | Jimmie have you tried ping localhost ? | 14:20 |
| Jimmie | RX Packets 9, errors 24. TX 113; 0 | 14:20 |

| Jimmie | yeah that works | 14:20 |
| wols_ | Bod: that's the end result yes | 14:21 |

| wols_ | how is blkid determined? | 14:21 |
| Bod | wols_: ok, rebooting | 14:21 |
| backdraft | Jimmie I mean the router/hub/modem# | 14:21 |
| Jimmie | must be, i'm talking to you through it :p | 14:22 |
| Jimmie | through wired | 14:22 |
| wols_ | or rather how is UUID determined. does /dev/sda1 vs. /dev/sdc1 matter | 14:22 |
| Pici | berzerka: Sorry, If those links ubottu provided you arent helping, you can ask in #ubuntu-kernel, but be advised that its more of a working development channel and not nearly as busy as here so you'll have to be be patient. | 14:22 |
| Jimmie | works when my XBOX is connected through it, so yes. | 14:22 |
| kate_mins | maek: can you help install it step by step please ? | 14:22 |
| Jimmie | (i switched the wires over for the time being) | 14:22 |
| wols_ | berzerka: #kernelnewbies | 14:22 |
| maek | kate_mins, it looks like you have to install all the dependencies http://www.cs.cmu.edu/~zollmann/samt/readme.html | 14:22 |
| backdraft | Jimmie and your XBOX uses dhcp? | 14:22 |
| philh | Pici, is that a polite way of saying it has a better signal to noise ratio? ;) | 14:22 |
| Jimmie | yes. | 14:22 |
| Pici | philh: In some ways. | 14:23 |
| backdraft | Jimmie what type of network card you got? | 14:23 |

| mosno | without punching a hole in her firewall | 14:23 |
| kate_mins | maek: i don't have much knowledge in Ubuntu , can you help me to figure how its can be done ? | 14:24 |

| Bodsda | wols_, ok, its dropping me back to busybox now. although it does it alot quicker this time | 14:24 |
| backdraft | Hmm realtek works with ubuntu, you using GNOME and network admin to try and make the connection or cli? | 14:25 |

| berzerka | wols_: not yet, i will search the ubuntu documentation for it. but i hope using dpkg-buildpackage... | 14:25 |
| mosno | wols_: even better, she's coming to my place on the weekend | 14:25 |
| mosno | for a differnt kind of ssh tunnel | 14:25 |
| maek | kate_mins take this for example: sh install.sh ... its a terminal command ... you need to input the commands to install the dependenices | 14:25 |
| mosno | i wish | 14:25 |
| Jimmie | Let me just give myself a static IP and I will see, gabbler. | 14:25 |
| wols_ | berzerka: learn that first. kernel-package is what you want. it's very easy | 14:25 |
| berzerka | wols_: nice, thank you. | 14:26 |
| wols_ | mosno: TMI | 14:26 |
| Bodsda | wols_, no, but the weird thing was, it couldnt mount the root decvice, but recieved info from it -- 'Waiting for response from root device... ok' | 14:26 |
| gabbler | berzerka: have you tried to just build the kernel in ubuntu and then move it to the boot directory like in gentoo | 14:26 |
| w1ngnutt_ | @mosno Have you tried using SSH tunneling? | 14:26 |
| mosno | wols_: TMI? | 14:26 |

| kate_mins | maek: ok i will try to installed it by the steps again , can i ask for your help for time to time ? | 14:27 |
| mosno | wols_: true. sorry about that. | 14:27 |
| gabbler | berzerka: if you are happy with gentoo, and i wish i had the time, you should be fine | 14:27 |
| berzerka | wols_: nice, i read their faq once, but yeah i will further look into it. | 14:27 |
| Jimmie | gabbler: I can ping the static address I give myself, yes. | 14:27 |
| Bodsda | wols_, anything else i can try? | 14:28 |
| Autobox | kate_mins: i cannot sleep, and have nothing to do, i would gladly walk you through this if you want to PM me | 14:28 |
| backdraft | Jimmie that means your connected to the network device, hence your network card is working | 14:28 |
| Jimmie | I dont' seem to be able to ping my router's IP, though... | 14:28 |
| Jimmie | So I suppose we're getting somewhere | 14:28 |

| ext5 | where do I find my userprofile ? I would like to put there a path for my user catalog. | 14:29 |
| gabbler | backdraft: that means you have a link layer but not necessarily network connectivity | 14:29 |
| wols_ | Bodsda: go to the grub shell on startup and play in there. there you can (temporarily) edit all your menu.lst stuff and also get help with "help" | 14:29 |
| Jimmie | gabbler: No. Nothing on the network will respond. | 14:29 |
| Bodsda | wols_, ok, will do, thanks | 14:29 |
| ext5 | where does the .profile locate? | 14:30 |
| gabbler | Jimmie; what sort of device are you connected to, switch, hub etc anyything special or just some old rubbish :) | 14:30 |

| maek | again .. this is enterprise level stuff which this channel offers desktop support only | 14:32 |
| woodson | Hello | 14:32 |
| Jimmie | This laptop (The HP Pavillion ZD8000) has a wireless network card but it's broadcom, so i'm going to need external drivers, which is why I was trying to connect it through ethernet to obtain them | 14:32 |
| ext5 | How and where can I add a path for my user profile? | 14:32 |
| wols_ | Bodsda: label is similar to UUID | 14:32 |
| Dr_willis | ext5, that can be set in the .bashrc or .bash_profile normally | 14:32 |
| Dr_willis | ext5, .profile isent used much these days | 14:32 |
| Bodsda | wols_, ok cheers for all your help | 14:32 |
| ext5 | thanks Dr_willis | 14:32 |
| backdraft | Maek so what desktop users can't require the same info as buisness users? | 14:33 |

| wols_ | Bodsda: don't cheer when it didn't help! | 14:33 |
| bluecake | hardware question, is it better to have a video card with hdmi built-in or is dvi good enough? | 14:33 |
| Bodsda | wols_, it did help, it may not have fixed the problem, but i learned new things ;~) | 14:33 |
| maek | backdraft it depends what info | 14:33 |
| gabbler | Jimmie: do you have any access lists on you adsl box that would prevent your lan from conecting? | 14:34 |
| Jimmie | nope | 14:34 |
| Jimmie | wired it lets anything through | 14:34 |
| tomaspg | right, i got a new xorg.conf file written up, how do i replace the old one with the new one? | 14:34 |
| wols_ | bluecake: hdmi is needed for bluray DRM | 14:34 |
| wols_ | bluecake: nothing more | 14:34 |
| gabbler | Jimmie: except this card ;) | 14:34 |
| Jimmie | indeed... | 14:34 |
| wols_ | tomaspg: copy the new one to /etc/X11/xorg.conf | 14:34 |
| bluecake | wols_, i heard the technology is the same, but how can it be the same when dvi have many more pins than hdmi? | 14:35 |
| Tonren | I'm experiencing severe SSH lag and hangs on incoming SSH connections. I've tried using a port other than 22, but the problem persists. Can anyone help? | 14:35 |
| wols_ | Jimmie: you sure the cable is proper? ie patch vs. crossover? | 14:35 |
| maek | backdraft this channel should be reserved for people new to ubuntu or people with desktop issues they need sorting out | 14:35 |
| Chousuke | wols_: HDMI means less cables though, because it also transmits audio | 14:35 |
| gabbler | Jimmie: so when you connect your ethernet you get a link, can ping youself but nothing else? | 14:35 |
| wols_ | Chousuke: IF you have a proper card like ATI | 14:35 |
| Grim76__ | Tonren: Try making sure that SSH is not resolving DNS names. Sometimes that will slow things down for SSH. | 14:35 |
| funkyHat | maek: are you speaking with authority about that or is it just a view that you have? | 14:35 |
| Jimmie | wols: Yeah its connected to my xbox usually and that has no problems.. just switched the wire to my laptop for the time being | 14:36 |
| Jimmie | gabbler yeah it would seem to | 14:36 |
| maek | funkyHat, view | 14:36 |
| Chousuke | wols_: or if you use an AV amplifier for a home theatre :P | 14:36 |

| recon69 | any reason that my update would download? my update manages seem to have major problems DL updates, when it actual download it's really slow and most of the time it fails? | 14:37 |
| funkyHat | maek: then please don't try to enforce it on the channel. If you think it should be enforced you should speak to the Ubuntu IRC Council about it rather than telling people this channel is reserved for beginner/desktop users when that isn't true | 14:37 |
| wols_ | recon69: bad repository mirror | 14:37 |
| Chousuke | wols_: AV source -> amp -> speakers and video output | 14:37 |
| Tonren | Grim76__: I thought that only affected the initial connection speed, and not speed of use. But, it's worth a shot: How do I check? | 14:37 |
| wols_ | Chousuke: amp != DAC | 14:38 |
| gabbler | Jimmie: is your router setup to use dhcp? | 14:38 |
| Jimmie | yep | 14:38 |
| Ontolog_ | I am running on Ubuntu 8.04 with MySQL. My MySQL instance creates its socket file at /tmp/mysql.sock so I make a link at /var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock so Amarok can find it. However I have to make this link every time I restart my computer because for some reason Ubuntu deletes the /var/run/mysqld directory I create. My question is: do you know why this is or is there some way to tell Amarok to use the socket file at /tmp/mysql.sock? | 14:38 |
| oli94 | #ubuntu-fr | 14:38 |
| gabbler | Jimmie: does it hand any out to your pc? | 14:38 |
| Jimmie | the ubuntu laptop? no it wont give anything to it | 14:38 |
| Chousuke | wols_: well DAC/amp then | 14:39 |
| Chousuke | wols_: whatever. | 14:39 |
| maek | funkyHat, well I think it should be reserved for beginner/desktop users ... but thanks I will consider your suggestion | 14:39 |
| wols_ | Ontolog_: why can't you use ubuntu mysql packages? | 14:39 |
| Chousuke | wols_: those huge boxes with a lot of AV inputs and outputs :P | 14:39 |
| gabbler | Jimmie: few quick questions, does your dhcp range have enough addresses to lease? can your router give any debug output? have you heard of wireshark? | 14:39 |
| Jimmie | im gonna try a different cable... | 14:39 |
| Jimmie | and yes , possibly not sure, no. | 14:40 |

| remoteCTR1 | how do i find out what kernel module my Broadcom® BCM5751M NetXtreme eth0 adapter is using? | 14:40 |
| gabbler | Jimmie: if you do an apt-get wireshark, it will install a sniffer which will tell you 100% if you are seeing any packets from your router which would rule out some questions | 14:41 |
| gabbler | as it shoudl just really work as you know | 14:41 |

| Typhox | And what does "/usr/lib/firefox-3.0/firefox: error while loading shared libraries: libjemalloc.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory" mean? | 14:47 |
| recon69 | so how to i fix my repository? | 14:47 |
| Grim76__ | Tonren: Ok gimme one second to look something up. | 14:47 |
| gabbler | exot: so you want to send a specific mail at a certain time etc | 14:47 |
| maek | berzerka, cause I can't send PMs ... nothing to do with me not "being interested" | 14:47 |
| Typhox | I am now searching for 2 hours and did not find anything that helped me | 14:47 |
| tonehog | Dedi: your wireless KB transceiver doesn't have indicator lights? | 14:47 |
| wols_ | Typhox: no xulrunner package | 14:47 |
| Dedi | tonehog: no :) | 14:48 |
| exot | gabbler, exactly | 14:48 |
| berzerka | maek: alright, i saw it. just wanted to say we're at ease mate. (at least regarding me..) | 14:48 |
| gabbler | exot: a specific email or the same one time and time again | 14:48 |
| tonehog | Dedi: what kind of wireless do you have? | 14:48 |
| Dedi | tonehog: logitech | 14:49 |
| berzerka | maek: (and aside, i got "[15:46] <maek> cause I can't send PMS" from you as a personal message..) | 14:49 |
| tonehog | Dedi: that's odd, most of mine had an indicator light. | 14:49 |
| exot | yes, I want to send but not periodically , so it's just at events | 14:49 |
| Typhox | wols_ , no that's wrong | 14:49 |
| Dedi | tonehog: yeah it sucks, and its a brand new one :( | 14:49 |
| gabbler | exot: do you have a mta? | 14:50 |
| exot | I installed sendmail , but still confused with configs | 14:50 |
| Typhox | I have xulrunner installed and I reinstalled it a few times | 14:50 |
| Typhox | i looked for the file myself and it's there | 14:50 |
| Grim76__ | Tonren: Try adding this to the sshd_config file UseDNS no then make sure to restart the SSH server. Also what authentication methods are you using? | 14:50 |
| gabbler | exot: have a look at this, there are many ways to skin the cat but this seems the easiest, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=153716 | 14:51 |
| bitbinary | hi..,someone gave me an gutsy installed laptop that is not booting due to a kernel panic. it happened while he was installing matlab. I checked the / and I see that the /etc directory has disappeared. any ideas what went wrong and how to fix it? | 14:51 |
| Tonren | Grim76__: Sometimes I use a key, sometimes just a password | 14:51 |

| ubottu | Information about games on Ubuntu can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Games and http://www.icculus.org/lgfaq/gamelist.php | 14:51 |
| Typhox | So the errormessage can not mean that xulrunner is not there. | 14:51 |
| tonehog | Dedi: I've been looking but haven't found anything like an applet that would do what you want. | 14:52 |
| Tonren | Grim76__: I really don't think it's a DNS thing. DNS lookups are only known to cause initial connection issues, not hangs during use. | 14:52 |

| BuFF | hi, i can't run word.exe 2k3 through wine 'cos i get "IOPL not enabled" error, i tried fix it WINEPREFIX="/home/~/.wine" and using "winetricks", but still nothing good, any ideas ? | 14:52 |
| tonehog | Dedi: gimmie a sec | 14:52 |
| Grim76__ | Tonren: Ok that would resolve part of your initial problem. The slow to connect. Then we can work on the slow use. | 14:52 |
| Typhox | "/usr/lib/firefox-3.0/firefox: error while loading shared libraries: libjemalloc.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory", so I am not able to use Firefox anymore | 14:52 |
| Tonren | Grim76__: It's not slow to connect, though. I never said that. ;-P | 14:52 |
| Tonren | Grim76__: It just lags severely and hangs during use. | 14:53 |
| gabbler | Tonren: maybe use something like bmon to begin with to monitor local link usage | 14:53 |
| exot | gabbler, thank you, but it's not that clear. I mean. I opened /etc/mail/sendmail.conf but i can't see any configuration about servers or sth | 14:53 |
| magnetron | BuFF: WINEPREFIX="/home/~/.wine" looks strange, shouldn't it be WINEPREFIX="/home/<enter your username here>/.wine" | 14:53 |
| Grim76__ | Tonren: "lag and hangson incoming SSH connections" | 14:53 |
| Tonren | Grim76__: I meant incoming as opposed to outgoing--a problem with the server, not the client. | 14:54 |
| Tonren | Grim76__: Sorry--I should have been clearer. | 14:54 |
| BuFF | magnetron: ~ is the same as my username | 14:54 |
| Tonren | gabbler: Thanks, I'll look into bmon. | 14:54 |
| Dedi | togh | 14:54 |
| Dedi | tonehog: i found it, its named lock-keys-applet. | 14:54 |
| magnetron | BuFF: what does the AppDB say about your app? | 14:54 |
| gabbler | Tonren: there is also something that checks computer latency specifically targetted at processes, i am just to remember what it is | 14:55 |
| Grim76__ | Tonren: Ok I will have to do more research for the real issue that you are having then. What is the system response like on the local machine? | 14:55 |
| tonehog | Dedi: I've asked around but haven't found any. Oh, nice, you found it. My logitech transceiver has 3 lights on it. | 14:55 |
| BuFF | magnetron: shows the error "IOPL not enabled" | 14:55 |
| recon61 | can only say that since i went to 8.04 have had nothing but problems, cant get any updates now :( | 14:55 |
| Tonren | Grim76__: As quick as could be expected. | 14:55 |
| magnetron | BuFF: i mean the AppDB website | 14:55 |
| tonehog | Dedi: I can understand why that'd be a problem ;) | 14:56 |

| Slart | BuFF: are you really sure that ~ is the same as your username? afaik it's the path to your home folder | 14:56 |
| recon61 | hang on, one kernel panic and a switch to the virgin repo and it seem to be updateing | 14:56 |
| BuFF | magnetron: yes | 14:56 |
| rubydiamond | is there any growl for Ubuntu? | 14:57 |
| Grim76__ | Tonren: Have you tried it from another machine other than your XP machine? I know you said you used an external machine. Just want to make sure that the XP machine is not a laptop and you were using it to connect and still getting the same results. | 14:57 |
| recon61 | crosses fingers and hopes the error trapping is fixed in new kernel | 14:57 |

| BuFF | magnetron: yeap | 14:59 |
| exot | gabbler, the problem is that bugzilla doesn't support postfix | 14:59 |
| Tonren | Grim76__: It bears mentioning that the laptop is connected via wifi, but it's less than 3 yards from the router and has never had this problem before. | 14:59 |
| magnetron | BuFF: just tell me what your username is | 14:59 |
| Slart | Blitz: logically enough it's the "date" command iirc =) | 14:59 |

| tomaspg | gabbler: cannot create regular file, no such file or directory...who new that copying a file could be this painful :) | 15:02 |
| mgolisch | bullgard4: cause you didnt format the partition with a filesystem? | 15:02 |
| recon61 | Blitz: have you tried setting it in you bois? | 15:02 |
| gabbler | tonren: i know i have been there, tried it, i just it was lacking some love | 15:02 |

| matrix09 | How do I backup my bookmarks in firefox.. I need to export my bookmarks so to run them in the other computer which have an internet connection? sorry for repeating! | 15:02 |
| mgolisch | bullgard4: creating a partition with fdisk does not create a filesystem on it | 15:02 |
| Tonren | gabbler: Oh, I didn't realize you were asking what my opinions of it were. :-) | 15:02 |
| Tonren | gabbler: It needs work. It's getting there, but it needs work. | 15:02 |

| magnetron | matrix09: in firefox, choose "manage bookmarks". it will allow you to export them as a html file. | 15:03 |
| mgolisch | bullgard4: you have to use the coresponding mkfs tool create a filesystem on that newly created partition | 15:03 |
| gabbler | tomaspg: sudo touch /etc/X11/xorg.conf | 15:03 |
| bullgard4 | mgolisch: How should I create a file system on /dev/sdb1? | 15:03 |
| gabbler | then do the cp | 15:03 |
| Grim76__ | Tonren: I wonder if you have a process that is eating the system resources. Have you checked top to see if soemthing is haywire witha process? | 15:03 |
| tomaspg | gabbler: i need to change it to get my resolution fixed | 15:03 |
| RoninBaka | so how do I make ubuntu run thin client sessions of itself under windows? | 15:03 |
| Tonren | Grim76__: Yep. The machine has 1.5GB RAM and only ~300 is being used, and CPU loads aren't even approaching .2 | 15:03 |
| Typhox | The releases from mozilla.com are too bad | 15:03 |

| [Blitz] | recon61 > in my bios, the time is correct but on the system the time is 2 hours earlier | 15:04 |
| Typhox | And there aren't any working Deb-packages | 15:04 |
| gabbler | tonren: come on, come on, how do expect to solve it ;) | 15:04 |
| Daisuke_Laptop | Typhox: i'm not sure what you're talking about. | 15:04 |
| recon61 | Blitz: well your time zone is probably set wrong | 15:04 |
| [Blitz] | maybe there is an option in date command can set the GMT + 2 value | 15:04 |
| Grim76__ | Tonren: The only thing I can think of at this point would be to look through the logs, or setup the SSH server to run in debug so you can see if there is something strange in there. | 15:05 |
| matrix09 | recon61: lemme check please | 15:05 |
| Tonren | gabbler: BTW, KDE 4.1 beta 2 was just released today, so I'll see how that goes when I get home from work. | 15:05 |

| genii | l815: np | 15:47 |
| Ken_R | so can anyone tell me how to fix this error: E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem. | 15:47 |
| julio_neto | zoke, I stalled Flash and it is running pretty well in Firefox. | 15:47 |
| astute | graphical install of flash is bad, now. Try: sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree | 15:47 |
| gabbler | tonren: -t mean don' stop, linux does this by default until you ctrl-c | 15:48 |
| unavailable | zoke -backports are unsupported , suggested package updates... install at your own risk basically | 15:48 |
| Jack_Sparrow | zoke backports are fine, proposed are not something you should use on your everyday system | 15:48 |
| andycan | Was there a way to connect to vnc server and let the traffic flow thorugh me (the client). I know there was but i cant remember how | 15:48 |
| julio_neto | zoke, Totem tell me there isn't a plugin to watch FLV videos. | 15:48 |
| funkyHat | Ken_R: run 'sudo dpkg --configure -a' in a terminal | 15:48 |
| Tonren | gabbler: my latency is fine. :-\ | 15:48 |
| zoke | Jack_Sparrow, would combining detdeb and -backports be safe ? | 15:48 |
| amenado | Ken_R-> what happens when you follow what it suggested of sudo dpkg -configure -a ? | 15:48 |
| Jack_Sparrow | zoke I would not add getdeb as a repo. | 15:49 |
| astute | backports are for accessing newer xorg-server statii. Not hacks. | 15:49 |
| Jack_Sparrow | zoke the closer you are to bleeding edge the more likely you are to bleed.. | 15:49 |
| philh | statii? | 15:49 |
| unavailable | zoke i would suggest, if you have to ask what is backports, dont use it, you may run into problems. | 15:49 |
| zoke | Jack_Sparrow, the thing is there are some games that require the latest version inorder to play with others online | 15:49 |

| saftsack | some option hsdpa users here? | 16:19 |
| gabbler | tonren: yea thats what i use none of these fancy features :) btw have you tried nano | 16:19 |
| amenado | wasabi ppp is initially established with serial line? then its not on interfaces file | 16:19 |
| wasabi | Huh? | 16:20 |
| Tonren | gabbler: Sorry dude. I'm a Vimmer. | 16:20 |
| wasabi | It's a network interface. Regardless how it's created. | 16:20 |
| amenado | wasabi off course not, as you found out | 16:20 |
| soundray | l815: Bitstream Vera Sans Mono (or Lucida Console if nonfree is an option) | 16:20 |
| wasabi | Dude. I have no idea what you're talking about. /etc/network/interfaces works. | 16:20 |
| pengatur | JackSparrow: I´ve installed build-essential and has already upgraded the automake to version 1.9. And, then follow the instruction on the install.txt to ¨./autogen.sh¨ and the result is error: cannot find gettext/intl directory; error: | 16:20 |

| amenado | wasabi it is okay if you dont know yet, just do not have an attitude | 16:21 |
| l815 | soundray lucida console looks good :) | 16:21 |
| wasabi | amenado: Moving onto other helpers. Thanks for the attempt. | 16:21 |

| ubottu | Launchpad bug 242417 in linux "no usb after hibernate" [Medium,Triaged] | 16:22 |
| wasabi | So, the ppp support in network/interfaces seems to break because it has no way to wait until the pppd has successfully started before running the post-up commands. I'm guessing this is just the way it is, and you should use /etc/ppp/if-up instead. Fine. But it also spits out an error complaining that the interface itself doesn't even exist when you try to bring it up. | 16:23 |
| v0lksman | Tonren: are you talking about syntax highlighting? | 16:23 |
| wasabi | /usr/share/doc/ppp/examples/interfaces shows that you make up a virtual interface name. | 16:23 |
| wasabi | If that's the case, why does it bother to test for the interface? | 16:23 |
| bazhang | wasabi, sounds like a bug | 16:25 |
| wasabi | that's kind of what i was thinking | 16:25 |

| gabbler | maybe its time to upgrade :) | 16:29 |

| joaopinto | conor, you shoud install the drivers from the repository | 16:31 |
| joaopinto | not from the nvidia site | 16:31 |
| hiptobecubic | conor, you have to stop gnome. go to a virtual terminal and run sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop or /kdm stop if you're in kde. then install the driver and then reboot | 16:31 |
| Amrita | Can someone help me with booting a live cd? | 16:31 |
| hiptobecubic | joaopinto, the drivers from the site offer more functionality. | 16:31 |
| bazhang | Amrita, need more info | 16:31 |
| conor | Thank you both | 16:31 |
| v0lksman | conor: try envyng...make things nice and easy | 16:32 |
| joaopinto | hiptobecubic, they are the same drivers, except for the version, they provide all the required functionalities | 16:32 |
| The_Premonition | hello guys can you help me to install my wireless card??? | 16:32 |
| joaopinto | I am refering to the closed source drivers, not to the open source which do not support 3d hw acc | 16:32 |
| hiptobecubic | the version difference makes a difference. i had a lot of problems with the version in the repository and had disable jockey and install manually | 16:33 |
| nikitis | Question: i'm trying to run a "nice" command to a wine program. Ubuntu won't let me run nice as a normal user. But wine won't let me run itself as root. So is there a way I can make the normal user run nice? | 16:33 |
| joaopinto | hiptobecubic, if you need the latest driver, then you should use envy-gtk , it's a package which takes care of installing the latest driver on a friendly way | 16:33 |
| joaopinto | ops, envyng-gtk | 16:33 |
| Amrita | It came with a book, I don't know what version of Ubuntu it is. Says something about the job whatever wasn't running and tried booting with noapic nolapic and got that IRQ requests were messing up | 16:33 |
| soundray | nikitis: try 'sudo renice' on the program when it's already running | 16:34 |
| hiptobecubic | joaopinto, i'll look into next time. for now everything is working :D | 16:34 |
| mcquaid | ok i've tried for four hours to recover this borked gutsy --> hardy upgrade | 16:34 |
| soundray | mcquaid: what have you tried? | 16:34 |
| bazhang | Amrita, we need a version | 16:34 |
| mcquaid | going to give in and reinstall. my understanding is there is now an option when installing from the live cd for it to not touch home correct? | 16:34 |
| mcquaid | soundray, basically upgrade seemed to go fine. new hardy kern won't boot. recovery mode fails, even the old gutsy kern fails which is really strange | 16:35 |
| joaopinto | mcquaid, as far I was told, as long you chose to not format the partition, that is the default behavior | 16:35 |
| gabbler | tonren: try this http://vim.dindinx.net/vim7/html/syntax.txt.php and then hit |usr_06.txt| introduces syntax highlighting, anymore and i might have to have a lie down | 16:35 |

| soundray | mcquaid: can you run 'apt-get -f install ; dpkg --configure -a' in the chroot? | 16:36 |
| mcquaid | i tried in desperation dpkg-reconfigure -a but it fails early because proc/acpi/event doesnt exit | 16:36 |
| wng-- | Is there a way to create a Live USB stick based off of ubuntu and then throw some custom start up scripts in there? | 16:36 |
| joaopinto | ePax, not really, latest version is Hardy Heron | 16:36 |
| bazhang | gabbler, hardy heron :) | 16:36 |
| mcquaid | yep tried those | 16:36 |
| exodos | hi, is there a way to install 54bit kernel on 32bit system using apt? | 16:36 |
| soundray | mcquaid: not dpkg-reconfigure -a | 16:36 |

| mcquaid | so i just want to reconfigure everything thats installed | 16:37 |

| Amrita | It was a live cd from a book that doesn't name the version. I'm trying to find it through the cd files... And all I found was Feisty | 16:37 |
| genii | exodos: 64 bit just does not work on 32 bit boxes | 16:37 |
| soundray | mcquaid: no, let's try something else first | 16:37 |
| joaopinto | mcquaid, sudo dpkg-reconfigure -a ? | 16:37 |
| gabbler | tonren: bash you mean not vim at all? | 16:37 |
| bazhang | Amrita, that is an olde version | 16:37 |

I disabled the firewall "ufw disable", and issued "/etc/init.d/apparmor stop"; I also checked "iptables -L" (tables are empty). Any idea of what I forgot? | 16:38 |
| erUSUL | joaopinto: in fact you can | 16:38 |
| hiptobecubic | I can't wait for Itchy Iguana to come out | 16:38 |
| soundray | mcquaid: seeing as your kernels seem to be messed up, do a 'apt-get --reinstall install linux-image-2.6.24-16-generic' (verify that -16 is what it should be from /hardy/boot/grub/menu.lst) | 16:38 |

| Amrita | And do what with the cd? It has preinstalled programs that work with the book. | 16:39 |

| bluk | joaopinto, I've disabled ufw, stopped apparmor, and iptables seems empty | 16:50 |
| mcquaid | soundray, there's 1.2 gigs left | 16:50 |
| v0lksman | bluk: so you can ssh to another server from the affected machine? | 16:50 |
| IshinoSan | gabbler: http://paste.ubuntu.com/22888/ | 16:50 |
| deed | can't really do much at all, how can i get my network hardware working without the internet? | 16:50 |
| mcquaid | 70G 69G 1.2G 99% / | 16:50 |
| Amrita | Well let me put it this way... It's an ubuntu release and boots just fine on my girlfriend's computer, but not on my laptop at all. So I know it's not the cd. | 16:50 |
| bluk | mlr, thanks didn't know about this one sorry | 16:50 |
| bazhang | Amrita, this is linux mint? | 16:51 |
| tdoggette | After installing Java, every time I do anything with apt, it complains about sun-java6-doc. How do I make it stop? | 16:51 |
| Amrita | Don't know. Doesn't say. | 16:51 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Amrita Which release is it.. | 16:51 |
| === Guest93038 is now known as mmattice | ||
| Amrita | All I found on it was that it was Feisty | 16:51 |
| mcquaid | soundray, don't know how i didn't see that error. but there is definitely room. hmmm... | 16:51 |
| deed | is there any way to install my network drivers without the internet? | 16:51 |
| gabbler | IshinoSan: ok that tells us it is not associated, how have you configured it, via text files, network manager, network? | 16:51 |
| bazhang | Amrita, you want help? then we need more info. Plain and Simple. | 16:51 |
| soundray | mcquaid: there's still that error... I think that's where you need to dig | 16:51 |
| bluk | v0lksman, yep I have physical acces to the server | 16:51 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Amrita Based on ubuntu is just not the same as our release... | 16:51 |
| bazhang | The_Premonition, you on that machine now? | 16:52 |
| v0lksman | bluk: from the local LAN can you SSH to the affected server? | 16:52 |
| bazhang | its got to be mint. | 16:52 |
| The_Premonition | bazhang no this machine is my laptop | 16:52 |
| The_Premonition | i am online now from desktop | 16:52 |
| bluk | v0lksman, the affected server is in the LAN | 16:52 |
| deed | anyone be able to help me install network drivers for my eee pc | 16:52 |
| Jack_Sparrow | bazhang Good guess.. we will see | 16:52 |
| deed | i only have loopback in ifconfig | 16:52 |
| bazhang | The_Premonition, you want to troubleshoot it, then best to have it nearby. | 16:52 |
| bluk | v0lksman, but yes I can do that | 16:52 |
| v0lksman | bluk: right but can you ssh TO it from another machine | 16:52 |
| mcquaid | soundray, now again, i'm doing this from the live cd via chroot. could that be screwing up the space free issue? | 16:53 |
| The_Premonition | bazhang i have both of them here | 16:53 |
| bluk | v0lksman, nope, that's the problem; every service is only available locally | 16:53 |
| joaopinto | bluk, then it's not related to the OS/system, but to your network access, better ask on #networking :P | 16:53 |
| jrib | Amrita: your best bet is to just burn hardy | 16:53 |
| soundray | mcquaid: on the other hand, if you want to reinstall, I would recommend backing up your /home (and perhaps /etc for future reference) and formatting the root partition. | 16:53 |
| deed | anyone be able to help me install network drivers for my eee pc | 16:53 |
| The_Premonition | bazhang and this machine is also open here so to tell me what to do | 16:53 |
| deed | i only have loopback in ifconfig | 16:53 |
| soundray | mcquaid: I don't think chroot is the problem. | 16:53 |
| v0lksman | bluk: then its not the server. you have a firewall for your LAN stopping traffic from off lan to hit that server. | 16:53 |
| Amrita | Ubuntu release, version: Feisty, architetcure: x86, everything else boots on my laptop including Fedora and even Knoppix, but when I try to boot this live cd, it says the job whatever isn't running and it can't access the tty. It boots fine on another computer, but not mine. When I try to boot it wil noapic nolapic it talks about the IRQ request and then says about the job whatever again. | 16:53 |
| bluk | joaopinto, I think it's Ubuntu related, as I tested thr same on my Dapper, and there's no probleme here | 16:53 |
| Jack_Sparrow | deed please hold down the repeats | 16:53 |
| SSDF | I need someone to help me getting my sound to work. | 16:53 |
| deed | =[ | 16:53 |
| IshinoSan | gabbler: I didn't really configure it, but I did try to install madwifi for my wireless-n adapter | 16:54 |
| mcquaid | damn strange, first time ubuntu fell over on me doing an upgrade | 16:54 |
| bazhang | The_Premonition, no way to troubleshoot without being able to enter commands directly into the computer<---this is the meaning of 'live' help. | 16:54 |
| joaopinto | bluk, it is not ubuntu related, if you can access from LAN and you have no fw rules, it is not OS/system related | 16:54 |
| v0lksman | zactly | 16:54 |
| v0lksman | :) | 16:54 |
| bazhang | deed, you read the wiki or been to the channel yet? | 16:54 |
| The_Premonition | bazhang i have both in front of me so to enter commands | 16:54 |
| joaopinto | bluk, you do understand how a network path works right ? if you can access from a path (local), but not from another path (internet), then the problem is not on the destination | 16:54 |
| SSDF | I need someone to help me getting my sound to work in PM ? | 16:55 |
| SSDF | Via a PM * | 16:55 |
| soundray | deed: the eeepc network hardware is tricky. I definitely wouldn't recommend trying it with feisty. Mine works with hardy after compiling madwifi drivers. Perhaps have a look at http://wiki.eeeuser.com/ubuntu:eeexubuntu:home | 16:55 |
| bluk | joaopinto, what about a rule like "allow local packets, else drop" ? | 16:55 |
| hwilde | !sound | SSDF | 16:55 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Amrita What magazine did you get it from.. exactly .. month and year? | 16:55 |
| ubottu | SSDF: 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 | 16:55 |
| bazhang | !sound | SSDF | 16:55 |
| joaopinto | bluk, you were the one tellingme you have no fw rules defined | 16:55 |
| mcquaid | i tried this: sudo dpkg -i --force-overwrite /var/cache/apt/archives/linux-image-2.6.24-16-generic_2.6.24-16.30_i386.deb | 16:55 |
| SSDF | bazhang, I've done all that | 16:55 |
| bluk | joaopinto, I think there's another fw-like setting I forgot | 16:55 |
| deed | soundray, what i'm trying to get is linux on a usb stick | 16:55 |
| mcquaid | and get sudo: unable to resolve host ubuntu | 16:55 |
| bazhang | deed, #eeepc and www.eeeuser.com wiki | 16:55 |
| mcquaid | what the heck? | 16:55 |
| v0lksman | bluk: sounds to me like you got em all... | 16:55 |
| deed | i found a guide for feisty, but not one for hardy | 16:56 |
| DRebellion | mcquaid, that's a problem with /etc/hosts iirc | 16:56 |
| jrib | mcquaid: pastebin your /etc/hostname and /etc/hosts | 16:56 |
| bluk | joaopinto, i only checked ufw, apparmor, and iptables | 16:56 |
| Sylphid|work | hello, im having some issues with my AW-GU701 realtek wireless adapter... lsusb reveals the ID 0bda:8187 ... the problem is that the wireless adapters range is significantly lower when using ubuntu vs windows | 16:56 |
| joaopinto | bluk, the only fw I am aware of is iptables, but it doesn't come with such rules by default | 16:56 |
| SSDF | yesterday i spent like 2 hours with a Guy from a ubuntu chat who tried to help me, still nowthing. | 16:56 |
| gabbler | IshinoSan: ok, well are those the right drivers for you card? | 16:56 |
| SSDF | nothing * | 16:56 |
| deed | bazhang, i did check it but it doesn't mention anything related to my setup | 16:56 |
| gabbler | deed: bazhang is right also try this http://wiki.eeeuser.com/ubuntu | 16:56 |
| v0lksman | bluk: the only other thing MIGHT be /etc/hosts.deny and hosts.allow..but they have been outdated for ages | 16:56 |
| bazhang | deed, what is your setup<---be precise | 16:56 |
| deed | i've got ubuntu feisty on a usb stick | 16:56 |
| perlsyntax | i got a question i got a ibm r50e and the cd will not boot up why is that? | 16:56 |
| deed | setup from a guide on pendrivelinux | 16:56 |
| deed | on an asus eee pc | 16:57 |
| bazhang | deed, feisty not the right way to go. | 16:57 |

| bluk | well hosts.[deny|allow] are empty, so I'll check my router again, thanks for helping | 16:58 |
| bazhang | deed, there are many guides, go to eeeuser.com wiki first. | 16:58 |
| deed | ok thanks | 16:59 |
| mcquaid | heh, not this system is kinda hosed. can't reboot. in a live cd with the part mounted and chrooted | 16:59 |
| bazhang | perlsyntax, likely yes | 16:59 |
| jrib | mcquaid: when you chroot, aren't you root already? | 16:59 |
| bazhang | The_Premonition, does hardware drivers show any thing for that card | 16:59 |
| perlsyntax | that the only place where i can get that | 16:59 |
| mcquaid | yes but root of the live cd's filesystem | 17:00 |
| The_Premonition | what do you mean bazhang? | 17:00 |
| bazhang | perlsyntax, you want http or torrent | 17:00 |
| mcquaid | needed chroot to try and do stuff with apt-get dpkg etc on the borked install | 17:00 |

| soundray | [newb]Miki: there isn't necessarily a solution for your problem. ATI's Linux driver support has been improving recently, but not so much for older devices. Use the open source driver and get by with the little acceleration that it provides. | 17:12 |
| bazhang | or get a better card. | 17:12 |
| Jack_Sparrow | [newb]Miki that card works just fine in gutsy in my laptop | 17:13 |

| NisseHult | Ohh | 17:15 |
| mcquaid | yeah for whatever reason... | 17:16 |
| NisseHult | But if it's not in the package manager and I need to download, how to I do then? | 17:16 |
| jrib | NisseHult: that will be very rare | 17:16 |

| ASULutzy | NisseHult: It comes with everything you'd need to audit WEP security. For WPA you'd probably want to download some precomputed hash tables | 17:26 |
| bluk | Tonren, seems to be more of a bug rather than a screen problem | 17:26 |
| Tonren | bluk: I figured it out--256color screen wasn't enabled until Hardy | 17:27 |

| subzeroHusky | trying to get libssl0.9.8 on my system | 17:28 |

| ASULutzy | Wargasm: network manager can take care of it on its own sometimes | 17:30 |
| subzeroHusky | trying to get help on libssl0.9.8 on my system | 17:30 |
| elvis | yes i used k3b and the one that comes with 8.04 but it dont work, the burner I just pulled from a different computer and it worked fine then | 17:30 |
| Charbax2 | Do I just download the normal Ubuntu 8.04 file to install from a USB key? | 17:30 |
| NisseHult | Unfortunatley I can't, one of the other computers that uses the net doesn't support WPA, only WEP so I'm forced to use it, but after my little prank, Im probably forced to buy a card with WPA... | 17:30 |
| d3hydr8 | where is the gconf registry | 17:30 |
| Wargasm | i mean to crack, ASULutzy | 17:30 |
| soundray | d3hydr8: you can access it with gconf-editor | 17:30 |
| bluk | elvis, did it worked at least once before, or never? | 17:30 |
| elvis | never on ubuntu, always on windows | 17:31 |
| elvis | which is a strange changeup | 17:31 |
| ASULutzy | Wargasm: Oh yea, WPA is computationally infeasible to crack so long as the passphrase is sufficiently long and complex, whereas WEP takes seconds regardless of the key used | 17:31 |

| ASULutzy | Charbax2: Yep, I have setup several persistent USB-liveubuntu keys | 17:32 |
| ASULutzy | !liveusb | Charbax2 | 17:32 |
| elvis | how do i find out what ones I need and where do i get them | 17:32 |
| ubottu | Factoid liveusb not found | 17:32 |
| ASULutzy | bah, to heck with you ubottu. | 17:32 |
| Charbax2 | !liveusb | 17:32 |
| ASULutzy | Charbax2: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LiveUsbPendrivePersistent | 17:32 |
| NisseHult | after installation, are they suppose to end up like new programs in the detskop and so, or just like files somewhere? | 17:32 |
| bluk | elvis, you can find chipset info with the "hwinfo" app; then, it's all up to you to find appropriate drivers | 17:32 |
| ASULutzy | Charbax2: If you don't need a "persistent" usb drive, I think they make automated tools that just setup the usb for you in 1 click. | 17:33 |
| elvis | ok Ill try it out | 17:33 |

| swirv | Evolution is driving me cR4Zy!!! | 17:35 |
| ASULutzy | Charbax2: The advantage of using a persistent USB instead of a cd or regular USB boot media is that you can load specific drivers you need ahead of time. For example I preloaded ndiswrapper and the windows drivers for my broadcom card and was able to get my wireless working wtih no active internet connection on the laptop. But yes, setting up a bootable ubuntu USB pendrive can be tricky, but it's not that bad :P | 17:35 |

| adam7 | Gohanx: try sudo update-rc.d -f kdm remove | 17:44 |

| blumm | bluk: i created a folder (via root) in my home dir, set sharing options and changed rights to my username, but it wont show the sharing icon on the folder when i quit being root | 17:44 |
| berzerka | Gohanx: i don't know, ubuntu has graphical tools for it. you can just remove the symlinks unter /etc/rc2.d, i guess.. | 17:44 |
| soundray | blumm: if you log out and log back in again, it should be sorted. Run 'groups' in a terminal to verify (it should list sambashare) | 17:45 |
| berzerka | Gohanx: ah, better listen to adam7.. | 17:45 |

| blumm | soundray: sambashare isnt listed | 17:45 |
| blumm | bluk: i thought i did this too | 17:46 |
| soundray | blumm: that's why you have to log out and back in | 17:46 |

| Dream | who has used DarkIce? | 18:30 |
| dhude | how to broadcast in ubuntu via shoutcast? | 18:30 |
| elvis | this might be a stupid question, but does ide and sata use the same cable | 18:30 |
| dhude | Dream: | 18:30 |
| soundray | elvis: no | 18:30 |
| unavailable | elvis no | 18:30 |
| elvis | "HL-DT-ST DVD-RW_GSA-H41N is my drive | 18:30 |
| dhude | it seems we are after the same thing | 18:30 |

| elvis | must be | 18:30 |
| C_Jack | i cant play music, or watch video, if i start video it shows many times slower | 18:30 |
| noobish42 | so I recently installed ubuntu on this computer and everything was working fine until about a day ago, when my wireless started giving me problems | 18:30 |
| elvis | sata is a little red cable right | 18:30 |
| soundray | elvis: yes | 18:31 |
| unavailable | yep | 18:31 |
| jklock | noobish42: explain | 18:31 |
| elvis | yeah its ide | 18:31 |
| powertoo108 | Audicious started playing randomly while I was sleeping, is there any way to find out what started it? | 18:31 |
| soundray | elvis: is it connected to the same cable as a hard disk? | 18:31 |
| Dream | dhude: you've downloaded darkice? | 18:31 |
| elvis | yes | 18:31 |
| C_Jack | but if i restart pc its oke, but after 1-2 hours it stops working | 18:31 |
| unavailable | rofl | 18:31 |
| dhude | nope, dream | 18:31 |
| unavailable | elvis put it on its own ide cable, | 18:31 |
| soundray | elvis: did you set the jumper for it to be a 'slave'? | 18:31 |
| elvis | also i installed ubuntu with it | 18:31 |
| AmirB | hey, I dual-boot Ubuntu and Vista, and use GRUB as my bootloader. I wanted to add XP to my OS's and I was wondering how that would affect the boot process, because I know installing new operating systems often messes that up? | 18:31 |
| dhude | I'd like to explore shoutcast in ubuntu first | 18:31 |
| noobish42 | basically it doesnt connect unless I manually go into the settings after every reboot or after coming from standby | 18:31 |
| dhude | Dream: I'm used to it since xp | 18:32 |
| cppmonkey | hi, im trying to use eBox to share my internet connection. When Ubuntu loads up I get a number of 'Open: access denied' messages refuring to eBox modules | 18:32 |
| elvis | i pulled it from a computer that it was the second device on too, so i figured the jumpers were already set | 18:32 |
| cppmonkey | What can U do? | 18:32 |
| Dream | dhude: well ive got it working(after hours cos ive never used linux) | 18:32 |
| === Moose is now known as ILikeBoats | ||
| cppmonkey | *I | 18:32 |
| dhude | if only there was a *radio* channel in here | 18:32 |
| jklock | noobis42: I am assuming also that you are using network manager ? | 18:32 |
| hiptobecubic | I'm trying to share files with another linux box on the network and i can't see it. It can see me but i don't see any other computers or myself | 18:32 |
| === ILikeBoats is now known as Moose | ||
| dhude | Dream: let's found one? | 18:32 |
| C_Jack | bazhang , i cant play music, or watch video, if i start video it shows many times slower, but if i restart pc its oke, but after 1-2 hours it stops working | 18:32 |
| noobish42 | yes | 18:32 |
| soundray | elvis: well, it's something that is reasonably easy to verify, so take a look | 18:32 |
| dhude | dream #radio | 18:32 |
| jklock | noobish42: what type of wireless card do you have installed into your machine? | 18:32 |
| noobish42 | basically it seems to be switching my security settings to wpa instead of the wpa2 I have set up | 18:33 |
| * unavailable reminds elvis to *always* check jumper settings when installing a drive | 18:33 | |
| v0lksman | C_jack: sounds like you are swapping...how much ram do you have? | 18:33 |
| soundray | elvis: it would be better if you could attach it on a channel by itself, ie. no HD on the same cable | 18:33 |
| XFame | hi, I tried to install a driver for my soundcard (x-fi). I followd the instructions given in the readme but I just got this errors (nopaste): http://rafb.net/p/feJieQ51.html | 18:33 |
| noobish42 | once I manually switch it back, there are no problems...but I have to do it everytime anymore | 18:33 |
| jklock | noobish42: and as a result it wont connect to the network unless you manually input the wpa2 key? | 18:33 |
| C_Jack | v0lksman , 1gb , only 350 in use | 18:33 |
| XFame | does it in anyway have something to do with "sudo"? | 18:33 |
| elvis | ok i will, but before i get off, would that jumper setting or it needing its own cable make these problems exist, where it works, but not really | 18:34 |
| bazhang | C_Jack, this is hardy? what app are you using. Is the computer getting hot. what drivers for the video card. what error messages do you get if any<--this is the info we need to help you out. | 18:34 |
| C_Jack | v0lksman , cpu usage 15% | 18:34 |
| noobish42 | yes, change it to wpa2 and input key again | 18:34 |
| unavailable | elvis lol it should say master or cable select, master is preferred | 18:34 |
| Pici | XFame: You need to install the build-essential package: sudo apt-get install build-essential | 18:34 |
| soundray | XFame: it looks like you should 'sudo apt-get install build-essential' | 18:34 |
| jklock | noobish42: I have had that problem and still have that problem | 18:34 |
| v0lksman | C_Jack: yeah then it may be overheating as per bazhang....also check swap | 18:34 |
| noobish42 | before a day ago it was working perfectly | 18:34 |
| unavailable | elvis and there should be either a diagram or markings | 18:34 |
| noobish42 | no problems at all | 18:34 |
| XFame | oh hey, thank tou | 18:34 |
| elvis | yeah but would a problem with that cause these symptoms | 18:34 |
| awolawol | hey guys. my ubuntu install got messed up after the latest update. this sounds weird. but it just turned into Kubuntu | 18:35 |
| soundray | elvis: jumper problems would be a plausible explanation for your problem | 18:35 |
| AmirB | hey, I dual-boot Ubuntu and Vista, and use GRUB as my bootloader. I wanted to add XP to my OS's and I was wondering how that would affect the boot process, because I know installing new operating systems often messes that up? | 18:35 |
| jklock | noobish42: does this happen randomly or only on reboot/standby | 18:35 |
| noobish42 | really? so you have to redo it every time as well? | 18:35 |
| soundray | elvis: that's the reason unavailable and I dug down to it... | 18:35 |
| awolawol | any help? | 18:35 |
| noobish42 | as far as I have noticed only on reboot/standby | 18:35 |
| Pici | awolawol: What do you mean that it turned into kubuntu? | 18:35 |
| unavailable | elvis master is only to be selected if you are movin it to its own cable | 18:36 |
| elvis | alright ill probably get to it tonight and hope it works, but im pretty sure its on cable select, because the other comp had the same setup | 18:36 |
| C_Jack | bazhang , yup hardy, 8.04, no not overheat, my pc is server its turned on for months, cpu temperiture about 40C | 18:36 |
| unop | AmirB, is XP already installed? or is that something you are going to do now? | 18:36 |
| awolawol | well during the boot time, i usually see ubuntu logo, but now i see kubuntu | 18:36 |
| noobish42 | however I have been reasonably busy lately, so I have not been on this computer enough to have it happen anytime else | 18:36 |
| awolawol | the login manager also shows blue color and i wasn't even able to login | 18:36 |
| AmirB | unop, that is something I want to do soon | 18:36 |
| Pici | awolawol: Did you install anything recently, like usplash packages or kubuntu-desktop? | 18:36 |
| awolawol | i had to login to failsafe mode, delete my user directory | 18:36 |
| jklock | noobish42: what type of wireless card do you have? | 18:36 |
| awolawol | i installed some kde related packages, | 18:36 |
| AmirB | unop, but I want to know what the risks are and what I should be prepared for | 18:36 |
| miles_ | Hi, can i have some help to get my laptop microphone to work | 18:36 |
| awolawol | don't think i installed kubuntu-desktop | 18:37 |
| awolawol | i logged into kde before | 18:37 |
| awolawol | and then din't like it and switched back to gnome | 18:37 |
| awolawol | was working fine | 18:37 |
| awolawol | till the latest update | 18:37 |
| miles_ | I am trying to use and install skype but it isnt working | 18:37 |
| noobish42 | intel pro | 18:37 |
| bazhang | C_Jack, compositing enabled? running firefox with a bunch of tabs (flash) at the same time as listening to mp3? movie and mp3 at the same time? any of those? | 18:37 |
| awolawol | i rebooted and it got totally messed up. i think right now gnome got deleted or something | 18:37 |
| unavailable | !enter > awolawol | 18:37 |
| unop | AmirB, ok, you have to let XP overwrite the bootloader on the MBR (i.e. grub) once that is done, you'll need to repair grub (through the live CD) and chain-load vista and XP | 18:37 |
| Pici | awolawol: Well, they might have pulled in usplash and kdm, if you havent rebooted since you wouldnt have seen the differences. | 18:37 |
| soundray | miles_: are you getting it from the medibuntu repository? | 18:37 |
| Nixnoob | anyone know how to setup a public proxy server on hardy with squid? | 18:37 |

| egc | hi, i noticed that the driver name for my wireless device changed recently from wpi to wmaster....now my network interfaces are behaving oddly...can anybody point me at something that talks about this? | 18:38 |
| awolawol | how do i resolve this situation? | 18:38 |
| bazhang | !puregnome | awolawol | 18:38 |
| ubottu | awolawol: If you want to remove all !KDE packages and have a default !Ubuntu system follow the instructions here << http://psychocats.net/ubuntu/puregnome >> | 18:38 |
| miles_ | is skype on the repository? | 18:38 |
| C_Jack | bazhang , sorry i dont understand, bad english, i trayed lot of app to listen to music or watching video | 18:38 |
| the_darkside_986 | is there no way to mount a UDF that some n00b burned in Vista? i've tried various solutions but always an error. | 18:38 |
| AmirB | unop, ok so I install XP onto a third partition regularly, and then when I boot my computer it'll bypass the grub and go straight to xp? and then how do I repair the bootloader in a livecd session? | 18:38 |
| soundray | miles_: only on the medibuntu one | 18:38 |
| dhude | hey, what's a bnc? | 18:38 |

| jcolbert | ? | 18:39 |
| C_Jack | bazhang , lithuanian | 18:39 |
| unop | AmirB, windows does not play nice and will overwrite the MBR with it's own bootloader .. so that means grub will disappear .. you'll need to reinstall grub and set it up to load XP and vista | 18:39 |
| jklock | noobish42: there is a bug out for this problem https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-system-tools/+bug/221485 | 18:39 |

| bazhang | C_Jack, what video; all formats or a specific one and what application are you using to play it. | 18:44 |
| l815 | k thanks | 18:44 |
| soundray | l815: sorry | 18:44 |

| unop | winamp works on linux now?? | 18:48 |
| bazhang | C_Jack, that is a windows program only. | 18:48 |

| fuh-zz | Yes, ASULutzy, I tried that. It's not made for 64 bit, so it's a little confusing. | 19:23 |
| ompaul | ronlut, using a single language which is not something I am familiar with - you see it is like this, they use it and if there is something to be known then they will know it is about localisation and I am not familar with packages for that language | 19:23 |
| funkja | How can I make a window with a certain name never appear in my window list in GNOME? | 19:23 |
| ASULutzy | fuh-zz: Well, it looks like all you need to do is find the correct offset, because the last command he uses to actually mount it is nothing special. sudo mount -t nrfs -o ro,noatime,noexec,loop,offset=xxxx, theVdi.vdi /media/theDirectory | 19:24 |
| voicu | Any idea on how to fix a mismatch between the headers and the kernel? (The right packages are installed) | 19:24 |
| ASULutzy | ntfs that is | 19:24 |
| ronlut | ompaul: you can think about it as your 2nd language, it doesn't matter what language we are talking about, it's about how to make pidgin use the dictionary of that language with the english dictionary. | 19:25 |

| captainm | funkja, install compizconfig-settings-manager and use the window rules plugin | 19:27 |
| voicu | obvio171: use the gcc option -I (capital i) like this: gcc -I /usr/src/linux-headers-2.6.24-19/include/mtd | 19:27 |
| ngauthier | obvio171, are you sure you're running that kernel? check the output of "uname -r" and see if it matches that source path | 19:27 |
| ASULutzy | fuh-zz: Yea, you could try alien to convert it if you are unable to find a deb or source | 19:28 |
| obvio171 | ngauthier: yep: 2.6.24-19-generic | 19:28 |
| fuh-zz | ASULutzy, alien failed at converting it | 19:28 |

| obvio171 | voicu: but the gcc line comes with the program's Makefile. isn't there a solution where I don't have to change that myself? | 19:28 |
| voicu | obvio171: I guess that you have to use some option in the config file | 19:29 |
| voicu | or in the make command | 19:29 |
| ASULutzy | fuh-zz: did you try locate VBoxDD.so ? | 19:31 |

| ASULutzy | fuh-zz: Although the vdi is currently in use, so maybe it's a good thing it failed | 19:43 |
| Chousuke | djGentoo|irssi: which password? | 19:44 |
| fuh-zz | ASULutzy, what did you do with those files in order for it to find it? And, yes, you should power off the virtual machine :p. | 19:44 |
| djGentoo|irssi | My registration password on Freenode. | 19:44 |

| djGentoo|irssi | How? | 19:44 |
| obvio171 | Chousuke: thanks! | 19:44 |
| ASULutzy | fuh-zz: I was just lazy, I just did sudo cp /usr/lib/virtualbox/ThoseSOfiles /usr/lib/ | 19:44 |
| Chousuke | djGentoo|irssi: there should be a KDE program for browsing your wallet | 19:44 |
| ASULutzy | fuh-zz: And once I copied all of them I just ran ./vditool | 19:45 |

| lwizardl | _RouterBSD, exactly only /home/username/Desktop | 20:05 |

| genii | bas: The TwonkyVision directory, yes | 20:06 |
| FreeFull | lwizardl: you need to make a new user account that would only run firefox when logged into and logout when firefox closes. | 20:06 |

| _RouterBSD | now I get what you want to do | 20:06 |
| bas | and then its gone for me | 20:06 |
| lwizardl | FreeFull, exactly what I want | 20:06 |
| ASULutzy | fuh-zz: Sorry was afk, when I did ldd vditool it originally said I didn't have them, so I used locate, and on this machine I'm using 32 bit, I have 64 bit on the desktop if you'd like me to try remotely via ssh. Originally the files were located in /usr/lib/virtualbox. vditool expects to find them in /usr/lib, not /usr/lib/virtualbox. So I copied the files from the virtualbox folder to just /usr/lib | 20:06 |

| fuh-zz | ASULutzy, mine were originally in /usr/lib. I'm running 64 bit, also. | 20:07 |
| _RouterBSD | unavailable, as easy as make oldconfig and not add the new things, and you'll have the newer kernel working | 20:07 |
| ASULutzy | AlabamaHit: Depending on what you want to back them up as, you could just use dd in the command line to create isos of each DVD (this will take a ton of hard drive space) alternatively you could rip each DVD with mencoder and save them as .avi (this will use less space but take a considerable amount of time CPU wise) | 20:08 |

| _RouterBSD | or, use the gnome panel to add the user | 20:10 |
| Cew27 | hey all does anyone know of a live cd or app that will let me scan a windows partition for viruses from linux | 20:10 |
| manolis | sorry but what is harddrake??? | 20:10 |
| _RouterBSD | once you have it created, and they log for the first time, it's done. | 20:11 |
| ASULutzy | AlabamaHit: If you want exact copies (ie images of the dvd's) you can just use dd to make .iso files. If you need to somehow change a 9.4 GB iso into two 4.7 GB files you'll probably need to make the iso, then use an archiving tool to break it into two separate files. | 20:11 |
| ASULutzy | AlabamaHit: But if you split it into two separate files using a tool like that you won't be able to play them (you'll need to put both files back together first) | 20:11 |
| _RouterBSD | manolis, and old red-hat app (more specifically Mandrake one, but got exported to Red Hat based distros) to take control of hardware | 20:11 |
| _RouterBSD | AlabamaHit, or use the 'split' command | 20:11 |
| ASULutzy | _RouterBSD: If you split them, it's not like each one will be playable will they? | 20:12 |
| unop | splitting an iso with split wouldn't be a good idea | 20:12 |
| captainm | Cew27, clamav | 20:12 |
| ASULutzy | _RouterBSD: Like, if I have a 9.4 GB iso, I can't just split that into two separate isos and get them to play. | 20:12 |
| bas | genii and slim1 may i thank you for helping me | 20:12 |
| _RouterBSD | nop, but for splitting the files, it goes... then you can make a symlink at the end of one file to point the start of the other | 20:12 |
| _RouterBSD | though, it aint a good idea | 20:12 |
| lwizardl | _RouterBSD, I used user settings to make a user (system > admin > users and groups) inside the user privileges i have nothing checked, and under advanced home directory is /home/username | 20:13 |
| _RouterBSD | what he can do is esily take k3b for doing that kind of movements | 20:13 |
| zelrikriando | hello | 20:13 |
| _RouterBSD | lwizardl, then it should go fine | 20:13 |
| AlabamaHit | ASULutzy: , _RouterBSD is there a program that will shrink it for me? i like simple....would be nice if i could put in the dvd and just back it up to a new dvd...without doing the whole making iso splitting and such | 20:13 |
| _RouterBSD | lwizardl, though they have to have some groups | 20:13 |
| lwizardl | groups is same as username | 20:13 |
| _RouterBSD | AlabamaHit, k3b has an option for that kind of works | 20:13 |
| === FoxBoy is now known as Hondo_Kitsune | ||
| _RouterBSD | AlabamaHit, either way, I'm apt-cache search-ing for something to aid you | 20:14 |
| Hondo_Kitsune | Hello | 20:14 |
| ASULutzy | AlabamaHit: You can't take 9.4 GB of data and turn it into 4.7 magically. You'll either have to get dual layer DVD's to burn (if it's necessary to burn them, you could always just leave the isos on the hard drive) So either split them (makes it unwatchable till rejoined), buy dual layer DVD's, or convert the .vob files to .avis (won't be playable in most dvd players, only DVD-rom drives in PC's) | 20:14 |
| _RouterBSD | AlabamaHit, k9copy should also work | 20:14 |
| tomaspg | when im trying to open the file /var/lib/dpkg/available, gedit tells me i cant open that file due to text error or something similar to that? even tho the available-old works perfect, any ideas what this could be ? | 20:15 |
| ASULutzy | _RouterBSD: A one button copy is going to expect you to have a dual layer DVD if the source is dual layer. | 20:15 |
| _RouterBSD | AlabamaHit, you'll have to remove things from the dvd like unused subtitles and scenes, that kind of work is the way to go if you're not going to use them and need to shrink size | 20:15 |
| AlabamaHit | _RouterBSD: the dvds are new so they (more than likely have that copy crap on them) will those still work... | 20:15 |
| AlabamaHit | ASULutzy: i know they wont magically turn into 4.7..lol but im sure there is a program that will do that, lol | 20:16 |
| EvilDennisR | Whats the jvm package name that firefox uses | 20:16 |
| unop | tomaspg, /var/lib/dpkg/available is only writable by root .. you need to use your editor under sudo to edit it | 20:16 |
| _RouterBSD | AlabamaHit, just try them | 20:16 |
| ASULutzy | _RouterBSD, AlabamaHit: Yea, you may be able to shrink down the quality and remove extras and stuff to shrink the 9.4 GB down, but you said you wanted exact copies | 20:16 |
| _RouterBSD | ASULutzy, k9copy allready contemplates those scenearios | 20:16 |
| ASULutzy | AlabamaHit: If you want exact copies you want exact copies. | 20:16 |
| _RouterBSD | ASULutzy, right there, no absolutely equal copies if shrinked is in the same oration | 20:16 |
| ASULutzy | AlabamaHit: If you want to lower the quality of the video/remove extras/etc, then yes, k9copy or similar apps may work. | 20:16 |
| tomaspg | unop: i did, still gave me the same problem. it tried to open the file but it couldnt due to something with the text.. the reason im trying to open it is because when im trying to install my updates it wont because of a error in that file.. what would happen if i just tried to delete it? is it a vital file for ubuntu? | 20:17 |
| Hondo_Kitsune | I am using Kubuntu, and I tried to install GNOME, but it will not select the packages becasue a dependancy could not be selected. So I selected the dependancy manually, and it then said that one of ITS dependancies cannot be installed. So I looked for it and it does not exist anymore. I even tried apt-get in RootKonsole and it did not work | 20:17 |
| Cew27 | captainm: i thaught clam av was forlinux | 20:18 |
| unop | tomaspg, i believe the file is used by apt to know what packages are available to install and so on .. what you could try doing is moving the file to /var/lib/dpkg/available.bkp .. and then running - aptitude update # but i am not sure this will solve the problem, worth a try tho | 20:18 |

| agliodbs | is there any way I can get Feisty to install dbmail 2.2.9 or 2.2.10? | 20:31 |
| bobbob1016 | Skyrail, I've done that recently, the changing distros without removing /home. I logged in under Xterm, it's a boot option, then "cd /home", then "sudo chown -R username oldusername/" then "sudo chmod -R 600 oldusername/*" or not sure the number now. That changes me to the owner, and permissions so only I can read/write the directory. | 20:31 |
| ASULutzy | Kevintrooper: First you'll need to install ndiswrapper (and I would suggest ndisgtk) so on the laptop click applications -> accessories ->terminal, and type sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install ndisgtk | 20:31 |
| Skyrail | kapace: try sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg | 20:31 |
| kapace | Skyrail: thanks | 20:32 |
| Kevintrooper | ASULutzy, I don't have a laptop | 20:32 |

| Skyrail | bobbob1016: mhmm, I think my folder permissions are okay actually, I've not checked but it's been working so far, my main gripe is all the Gnome settings that have stuck | 20:32 |

| bobbob1016 | Skyrail, I think you just need to chmod/chown .gconf or .gnome, not sure though. | 20:34 |
| ASULutzy | Kevintrooper: Once you install ndisgtk, you'll want to locate the windows drivers for the card (it probably came with a CD, if you've lost the CD, just google for it) Once you find the drivers, you'll want to click System -> Administration -> Windows Wireless Drivers, and tell the program where the .inf file for the Windows driver is | 20:34 |
| vartija | about every second login all the icons and applets on the status panel are fucked up, placed randomly all over the area. I fuckin' hate that | 20:34 |

| ronlut | no one knows the answer? | 20:46 |
| ASULutzy | ActionParsnip: Actually that depends. Sharing copyrighted stuff that you don't have the rights to is certainly illegal. downloading copyrighted stuff may or may not be illegal. A lot of places put the onus of responsibility on the person who is sharing the content without permission. | 20:46 |

| codecowboy | webcamwonder, it was just a guess - sorry. but if your question is specific to wine it makes sense to ask on the relevant channel / mailing list for that. getting answers here is not easy - even if you actually have a question about ubuntu | 20:52 |

| RAdams | GNUtoo: probably, whatever raid setup your laptop is using is the only controller capable of fully seeing and dealing with the drives. you'd have to break them out of the array to get gparted to see them. which of course isn't an option if it's striped. | 20:56 |

| ActionParsnip | lmosher: you can use tab autocomplete with packages to install | 20:57 |
| RAdams | ActionParsnip: that's not what he's talking about | 20:57 |
| GNUtoo | RAdams, it's standard software raid...but gparted doesn't seem able to see it... | 20:57 |
| lmosher | RAdams, afaik it links the arrow-under-icon thing to the "name" field of the launcher. | 20:57 |
| ASULutzy | fuh-zz: Hmmm said the NTFS signature is missing | 20:57 |
| GNUtoo | RAdams, the one from the linux kernel...i have no special controller... | 20:57 |
| RAdams | lmosher: hm. that's stupid | 20:58 |
| RAdams | GNUtoo: oh, thought you were saying you configured it from a soft raid controller that came with your laptop. misunderstood you | 20:58 |
| lmosher | RAdams, Yeah it usually takes me a few tries to get the name right :( thanks for the help | 20:59 |
| ASULutzy | GNUtoo: After you installed mdadm did you check to make sure the raid was setup? (what does cat /proc/mdstat say) | 20:59 |
| boris_ | hello. i changed ext3 FS to XFS,and am editing etc/fstab. Where do i get UUID of my disk ? or should i just leave it the way it is ? | 20:59 |
| RAdams | lmosher: np | 20:59 |
| GNUtoo | ASULutzy, i can mount the disk | 20:59 |
| RAdams | !raid > GNUtoo (this might help you) | 20:59 |
| GNUtoo | ASULutzy, s/disk/raiid array/ | 20:59 |

| ASULutzy | fuh-zz: Did you actually get it to work? I keep getting invalid NTFS signature or something like that | 21:01 |
| glitsj16 | boris_: yes, that command is separate from gparted, run it from terminal | 21:01 |

I have a keyboard with volume control keys (logitech ultraX) and they work perfect, the OSD volume thing shows up, but there is no actual change in volume.

| boris_ | zipper : system-preferences-sound- then select tracks your keyboard should control- i selected all and it worked. | 21:05 |

| Aragorn94 | huhuh | 21:06 |
| glitsj16 | boris_: well that depends on what you changed on the partiton, e.g. if you changed filesystem type from ext3 to something else, than /etc/fstab will need adjusting | 21:07 |
| zipper | boris_, awesome thanks but uhm... I'm using kubuntu (everyone is idle in #kubuntu) and there is no 'track' settings under sound configuration =/ | 21:07 |

| spoon_man | voraistos, what site is it? | 21:08 |
| voraistos | 4OD | 21:08 |
| glitsj16 | boris_: in that case, change ext3 to xfs for that partition in /etc/fstab and check any specific flags you need or want for xfs (you can find those in the man mount under -o for an overview) | 21:09 |

| genii | george__: ssh and then fish:/ in file browser | 21:43 |
| evilgnome | Hello all. I've been happily using Ubuntu for a few months now -- finally left Gentoo. Now I keep getting surprised at how outdated the packages are. Is that just how it is for Ubuntu? For example, LyX has been at 1.5.5 since May 11, and Hardy has it at 1.5.3; gparted has been at 0.3.7 since April, and we're only at 0.3.5. Are these exceptions or is it standard practice to stay a couple of releases | 21:43 |
| evilgnome | back? | 21:43 |
| newlinetv | zipper, thanks for that, as i'm a linux newbie would ubuntu server be best for me? | 21:43 |
| joh | zipper: If gnome-volume-control works, I have no idea :P KDE ain't my thing. | 21:43 |
| george__ | genii, GUI or terminal ? | 21:43 |
| joh | zipper: You might try in #kde, if you're brave... | 21:44 |
| power2theplankto | can anyone help me with the openGL error i am getting when trying to load "Frets on Fire" on Hardy Heron. The error message is as follows: http://pastebin.com/m5bdac455 | 21:44 |
| genii | george__: Nautilus for instance | 21:44 |
| vocx | evilgnome, standard practice. They are "stable" packages. | 21:44 |
| boris_ | glitsj16: is it possible for the disk to be root so it cant boot ? | 21:44 |
| george__ | genii, so I need to install ssh and then youse fish:/local.ip ? | 21:44 |
| chrisj | newlinetv: On servers, where you only use the command line, most linux distributions are about the same. But ubuntu has some nice features that help beginners - like saying which package a program is in if you try to execute it and it's not installed. | 21:44 |
| Felonious | How can I reinstall the fonts that came with ubuntu as well as the msttfcorefonts? | 21:44 |
| george__ | genii, Nautilus cannot handle fish: locations. | 21:45 |
| ubilicios | Hi guys trying to install rt and after I did I get this every time I run sudo "/etc/sudoers is mode 0644 should be 0444" | 21:45 |
| zipper | joh, need to install 33 packages just to get gnome-volume-control.... looks like i have to be brave for this =P. But thanks anyway | 21:45 |
| glitsj16 | boris_: i think you need to reinstall grub actually, have you ever used chroot ? | 21:45 |
| joh | zipper: Good luck! | 21:45 |
| zipper | =) | 21:45 |
| chrisj | gold: you can install vlc by selecting applications->add/remove software | 21:45 |
| evilgnome | vocx: and there's no system to just mask the newest ones, so that people can just unmask them if they know they're stable? | 21:45 |
| newlinetv | chrisj, cool, thanks for that info :) | 21:45 |
| vocx | evilgnome, mask unmask? | 21:45 |
| genii | george__: I'm normally in KDE here so I would be using Konqueror. But there must be one in Gnome that works by default as well | 21:45 |
| Saladin | Oh good. Well, that answered my question" | 21:46 |
| Saladin | *! | 21:46 |
| boris_ | glitsj16: no | 21:46 |
| spoon_man | evilgnome, pretty much any distro will seem to update glacially after you've been using gentoo for a while | 21:46 |
| zipper | newlinetv, hard to tell what would be best for you. I just got used to running debian on servers, and never had a reason to try something else. | 21:46 |
| takehiko | oyasumi nasai mina-san tachi =D | 21:46 |
| Saladin | Nice to see FF3 is finally here | 21:46 |
| Saladin | Toodles | 21:46 |
| javier | which linux cad program is most alike to autocad?? | 21:46 |
| glitsj16 | boris_: if you need some assistance doing that, pm me and we'll go over it in detail, just give me a minute | 21:46 |
| evilgnome | vocx: nevermind, thank you | 21:46 |
| evilgnome | spoon_man: alright, fine | 21:47 |
| zipper | javier, checked if you can run autocad in wine? | 21:47 |
| newlinetv | :) | 21:47 |
| gold | ok i now i instal vlc | 21:47 |
| javier | zipper, no i cant, cant emule .net frameworks | 21:47 |
| chrisj | javier: I remember to have seen one on gnomefiles.org, never tried it, though. | 21:47 |
| the_darkside_986 | Where does Ubuntu keep its kernel ".config" file? I need to build a kernel module, but I'm having no luck. | 21:47 |
| zipper | javier, mono is supposed to take care of .net but i've never tried it myself | 21:48 |
| evilgnome | spoon_man: don't know of any good third party repositories for the impatient? | 21:48 |
| javier | mono? | 21:48 |
| javier | !mono | 21:48 |
| ubottu | Factoid mono not found | 21:48 |
| boris_ | glitsj16: yes, i need assistance | 21:48 |
| spoon_man | evilgnome, medibuntu is good for starters | 21:48 |
| chrisj | the_darkside_986: I don't know that, but if it's some "standard" kernel module, the `module-assistant' program might be able to build it for you. | 21:48 |
| zipper | javier, http://www.mono-project.com/Main_Page | 21:48 |
| evilgnome | spoon_man: yeah, but I need LyX. thanks though | 21:48 |
| the_darkside_986 | this package is experimental and has non standard build procedure. There is a kernel configuration file somewhere in Ubuntu but I can't find it. | 21:49 |
| vocx | evilgnome, yea, some people like th latest, some do not care enough. I think you should compile the ones you want, unless that is most of the system. | 21:49 |
| genii | george__: In commandline you can do like: sshfs name@remote:dir /local/mountpoint | 21:49 |
| newlinetv | one more thing, once i get a router so i can use my pc the same time, is it easy to transfer my website from my pc to my server as i'm developing it?, at the moment i'm using Windows XP, i'm thinking of changing to ubuntu on my pc soon, but at the moment i take it it's easy for windows to talk to ubuntu server? | 21:49 |
| zipper | javier, no idea if its gonna work or if it can even be used for what you want, but somehow i doubt there are many professional CAD applications for linux | 21:49 |
| evilgnome | vocx: I don't usually like to mix package management. there's no smooth way to integrate compiled packages with aptitude, is there? | 21:50 |
| zipper | newlinetv, its "easy". You can set up an ftp server, you could use svn or cvs, or you could even use windows file-sharing | 21:50 |
| oldenglis1 | I have an AVI file that is set to open with MPlayer but it always starts in Totem...any ideas? | 21:50 |
| vocx | evilgnome, no, although you can learn how package management works, and create your own debs, then install that. | 21:51 |
| evilgnome | vocx: OK, thank you very much. | 21:51 |
| newlinetv | zipper, during the install process of ubuntu server will i be asked if i want to install an ftp server? | 21:51 |
| zipper | newlinetv, never installed ubuntu server, do dunno. But i would imagine so, yeah | 21:52 |
| zipper | otherwise you can always install it afterwards | 21:52 |
| poon | hrm | 21:52 |
| javier | zipper, http://www.tech-edv.co.at/lunix/CADlinks.html there are many i just wanna know which one is the most alike | 21:52 |
| newlinetv | zipper, cool, thanks for your reply :) | 21:52 |
| tomaspg | say i somehow managed to install ubuntu on the same fat32 partition as windows xp, how do i go about to remove windows? dont have a cd drive and i cant boot from usb, so i have to do it from one of the OS. does anybody know if this is possible or can i just delete it all ? | 21:52 |
| zipper | newlinetv, np | 21:52 |
| zipper | javier, i've never worked with CAD applications, i honestly wouldn't know anything about them | 21:52 |
| osmosis | how can I check if cpu frequency scaling is being used? | 21:53 |
| zipper | osmosis, try cat /dev/cpuid | 21:53 |
| javier | zipper, ok thanks for your time | 21:53 |
| zipper | ehh | 21:53 |
| zipper | forget that | 21:53 |
| poon | i've got a question, i'm trying to set up a jailed ssh system for my clients to login to my box and edit thier files.. I've been googling for quite some time but no luck :/ | 21:53 |
| zipper | apparently that device doesnt exist in ubuntu? | 21:53 |
| poon | when someone gets a chance | 21:53 |
| osmosis | zipper: that doesnt exist | 21:54 |
| poon | no one? :( | 21:54 |
| zipper | osmosis, i know, sorry. Not sure why it doesnt exist, thought the ubuntu kernel was compiled with support for that device. My bad | 21:55 |
| osmosis | zipper: was the ubuntu-server kernel compiled with support for it ? | 21:55 |
| === skillet__ is now known as skillet | ||
| zipper | osmosis, my guess is "no", but i have no idea. Either way, i'm sure there is other ways of checking what frequency the cpu is running at | 21:56 |
| zipper | i believe there are several applications in the repos that does exactly that | 21:56 |
| eric_ | hi.. i just wanna ask.. what program could i use to create my own dvd movies | 21:56 |
| asoare | hello, i have a simple question :) how do you raise the volume level above the maximum ? i have laptop speakers and movies are a little low on volume | 21:56 |
| asoare | i'm thinking it is done by configuring some codecs, but i don;t know how and which ones | 21:57 |
| Maimster | Sup fellas.... | 21:58 |
| spoon_man | osmosis, you want to check the CPU frequency? it's on the first tab of the System Monitor | 21:59 |
| spoon_man | System > Administration > System Monitor | 21:59 |
| osmosis | spoon_man: im running ubuntu-server. no gui. | 21:59 |
| eric_ | hi.. i just wanna ask.. what program could i use to create my own dvd movies | 21:59 |
| brianherman | spoon_man: are u related to the dilbert character phil | 21:59 |
| oldenglis1 | I can't get avi files to open with the MPlayer when i double click, can anyone point me in the right direction on that? | 21:59 |
| Maimster | eric_ I was successfull with K3b | 21:59 |
| grendal_prime | whats is a good tool for managing iptables...you know like setting up a router and whatnot. | 21:59 |
| eric_ | thanks mainster | 22:00 |
| Maimster | eric_ I think that is the name of it. | 22:00 |
| eric_ | thanks maimster.. ill try it.. see dude.. thanks again | 22:00 |
| * _illuminati says ubuntu has done wrong by removing "inittab". | 22:00 | |
| DrLame_ | E: could not get lock var/cache/apt/archives/lock - open | 22:00 |
| DrLame_ | I think my apt-get failed because of that... | 22:00 |

| === Nicko is now known as Mirey | ||
| DrLame_ | Can I fix? | 22:01 |
| === Mirey is now known as Mirey333 | ||
| zipper | DrLame_, make sure you are not running aptitude, apt-get or the likes already. Only one application can have access at a time | 22:01 |
| * _illuminati says linux is for those who have lot of free time to waste. | 22:01 | |
| unr3a1_ | hey all | 22:02 |
| unop | _illuminati, or for those who don't have time to waste - depends on what you want to get out of your system | 22:02 |
| unr3a1_ | I connected my iPod to my ubuntu computer, and now whenever i unplug it, the ipod says there is no music. how can I rectify this? | 22:02 |
| _illuminati | oh | 22:02 |
| _illuminati | wat u want? | 22:03 |
| george__ | joh, I installed samba, and using smb://local.ip opens up a folder which is empty, why I cannot see any other folders, the mouth point set up on the box was the user folder | 22:03 |
| The_Premonition | ban | 22:03 |
| unr3a1_ | does anyone know how I can get my ipod to play my music again? | 22:03 |
| unop | george__, are you sharing any folders with samba? | 22:03 |
| Scunizi | unr3a1_: install rockbox on it and all will be well. | 22:04 |
| unr3a1_ | install rockbox? | 22:04 |
| unr3a1_ | onto what, the iPod? | 22:04 |
| unop | unr3a1_, what application did you use to manage the ipod? | 22:04 |
| unr3a1_ | rythmbox | 22:04 |
| xTheGoat121x | Afternoon everyone. | 22:05 |
| nuno_nunes | HI ppl | 22:05 |
| unr3a1_ | Rhythmbox* | 22:05 |
| george__ | unup, the share I added is my user folder.. | 22:05 |
| unop | unr3a1_, and does rhythmbox say there is music on the ipod? | 22:05 |
| gendernotstated | Does anybody know how I would set up my computer to use a linksys USB network thing to let me get on the internet? | 22:05 |
| Sinnerman | i didn't know you could install firmware/rockbox on the ipod! i might have bought that instead of a stupid sansapod thing i got. | 22:05 |
| unr3a1_ | yes | 22:05 |
| unr3a1_ | unop: yes. but if I eject the ipod, then the ipod doesnt show any music | 22:05 |
| Scunizi | unr3a1_: amorak works well with the stock ipod.. if you want an alternative interface on the ipod that also supports ogg, plays games etc.. google rockbox and see if it is compatible with your version of ipod. | 22:05 |
| DrLame | I reset ubuntu and it fixed it | 22:05 |
| Scunizi | Sinnerman: depends on the version of ipod.. | 22:07 |
| jeremy04 | Hi guys. Firefox wont open up HTML files in ubuntu :( | 22:07 |
| mrichman | Is there a decent Twitter client for Ubuntu? | 22:07 |
| Sinnerman | Scunizi: im just looking at their site. | 22:07 |
| unop | unr3a1_, it's likely you copied music to the ipod using it as an external storage not via the itunes database .. you might want to try out gtkpod - it's what i use | 22:07 |
| unr3a1_ | its actually an old ipod mini | 22:07 |
| xTheGoat121x | Is there a way to make Windows Explorer act like Nautilus? | 22:07 |
| harshil | hey does anybody know how to do the graphics tweaks using Intel 945GM? | 22:07 |
| george__ | unup, the share I added is my user folder.. | 22:07 |
| jeremy04 | instead it just says "Do you want to run so so . html " | 22:07 |
| KRaZy_WaKa | how could i dual-boot ubuntu hardy and winXP Home, i have ubuntu on now and all the documents i've read are for dual-booting with windoze as the current OS | 22:07 |
| unr3a1_ | ok | 22:07 |
| Scunizi | xTheGoat121x: windows support is in #windows | 22:07 |
| Slart | xTheGoat121x: I guess you would have to ask a windows user that | 22:07 |
| unop | george__, well, have you tried restarting samba? | 22:07 |
| xTheGoat121x | Scunizi, didn't think there WAS a windows support channel. Thanks! | 22:07 |
| Nikola | I need help with partitioning for install,can anyone help me? | 22:07 |
| Slart | KRaZy_WaKa: install windows and then reinstall grub using the ubuntu live cd | 22:07 |
| Scunizi | KRaZy_WaKa: you can install windows 2nd but it likes to be in the first partition of the HD. Then you'll have to reinstall grub to get to ubuntu. | 22:07 |
| george__ | unop, how to I restart samba ? | 22:07 |
| The_Premonition | can you help me to install me wireless card WL-WN322G ? | 22:07 |
| unr3a1_ | but how would using gtkpod bring back all my music? | 22:07 |
| Sinnerman | say i want to add a file to a .deb file. how would i go about it? i tried manually, now it says the .deb is corrupted. i wanted to add a file in a deluge .deb that would put an entry in the menus, which the latest stable version does not have (/usr/share/applications). any ideas? | 22:07 |
| Slart | Nikola: just ask your question, someone will answer if they know the answer | 22:07 |
| KRaZy_WaKa | Slart: would i go into recovery/repair from the live CD? | 22:08 |
| KrimZon | jeremy04: right click on it and choose properties and then the "open with" tab | 22:08 |
| unop | george__, at a terminal, issue this command. sudo /etc/init.d/samba restart | 22:08 |
| Slart | Sinnerman: unless you know what you're doing you shouldn't be adding stuff to a deb | 22:08 |
| Slart | KRaZy_WaKa: that works too | 22:08 |
| jeremy04 | KrimZon: I did.. i chose Firefox, and it doesnt load | 22:08 |
| KRaZy_WaKa | oh i'm dual-booting with 2 separate hard drives | 22:08 |
| xTheGoat121x | Scunizi, it's funny, cuz I use windows so infrequently but when I do I want it to be like Ubuntu | 22:08 |
| george__ | unop, I am using nautilus to connect smb://local.ip | 22:08 |
| Jahromeo | what can i type in my console to get a list of hdds/partitions? | 22:08 |
| Scunizi | xTheGoat121x: then just use it for games and forget the rest.. ! | 22:09 |
| Slart | Jahromeo: fdisk -L | 22:09 |
| unop | Sinnerman, look into creating debian packages .. see the debian package maintainers manual | 22:09 |
| Jahromeo | Slart: ta | 22:09 |
| jeremy04 | KrimZon: could it be cause I uninstalled Firefox3 .. or a gnome problem? | 22:09 |
| Nikola | Oh,i don't know how to partition a Hard Disk to Install Ubuntu,i want to dual boot it,and i don't know how to select what Hard Disk i want to partition | 22:09 |
| george__ | unop, i do right click and properties and it displays the ip of the other box which means it is connected to it | 22:09 |
| Sinnerman | Slart: that one seemed kinda obvious. im not sure though. i could manually add the file to /usr/share/applications, but if i upgraded or removed, it wouldn't get removed too, would it? damn. | 22:09 |
| KRaZy_WaKa | and i have a third storage drive that i am gonna run off an ultra100 PCI - IDE expansion card | 22:09 |
| unr3a1_ | unop, how do I get the ipod to recognize its music again? | 22:09 |
| Sinnerman | unop: right, well, i'll have a look :D. | 22:09 |
| unr3a1_ | like what do I do inside gtkpod? | 22:09 |
| Sinnerman | though they have a new version out, so that might be fixed. | 22:09 |
| Slart | Sinnerman: that's correct | 22:09 |
| xTheGoat121x | Scunizi, true. | 22:09 |
| Sinnerman | Slart: which is why i thought about messing with the .deb. | 22:10 |
| unop | unr3a1_, gtkpod works almost drag and drop once you have set it up for your ipod | 22:10 |
| Matze202 | hiho @all ;) | 22:10 |
| Nikola | How can i select what partition to install Ubuntu? | 22:10 |
| KRaZy_WaKa | which brings me to my next question, has anybody used a Maxtor/Promise Technology Ultra100 PCI - IDE expansion card under ubuntu? or know where i could find info about it to see if it is compatible? | 22:10 |
| lov3^ag3r | nbm | 22:10 |
| unr3a1_ | unop. Alright. So you are saying once gtkpod sees the ipod, loads its music, I should be able to disconnect it and now have my ipod see the music on it? | 22:11 |
| KrimZon | jeremy04: if it's not installed right now it could be | 22:11 |
| Slart | Sinnerman: it might seem like a good thing to do.. but it isn't.. just write down what that extra file is called on a post-it-note... when you remove the package, remove the file =) | 22:11 |

| unr3a1_ | unop. cause what happened was, I loaded music on the ipod through rhythymbox, which succeeded, then when i ejected the ipod, it doesn't show any of the music on it | 22:12 |
| Sinnerman | Slart: i can see the potential problems. deluge have got a new version out, im checking it out, hopefully, i won't need the post-it either :P. | 22:12 |
| unop | unr3a1_, no, what i mean is - you might have accidentally used your ipod as an external storage device (data use) with rhythmbox - so the music has been copied onto the ipod but the music has not been registered in the ipod's itunes database -- so what you need to do is use gtkpod to copy that music the right way | 22:12 |
| Slart | Sinnerman: let's hope so | 22:12 |

| lyhana8 | does anyone have wordtranslation feature on Google Toolbar on Firefox3 ? | 22:13 |
| Sinnerman | Slart: yep. bingo! i think maybe it was an oversight in the last version. hehe. | 22:13 |
| unop | unr3a1_, exactly - you can use your ipod in such a way that it does not recognize files you put on it - you can use it as a backup portable harddrive | 22:13 |
| Sinnerman | and very nice of them to supply up to date packages for gutsy too :D. | 22:13 |
| unop | unr3a1_, which means you can copy anything you want, even music onto it's harddrive - but that does not mean the ipod's firmware will be able to see or play it | 22:13 |
| unr3a1_ | oh ok | 22:14 |
| unr3a1_ | well, it looks like having gtkpod look at the ipod fixed it | 22:14 |
| unr3a1_ | thanks | 22:14 |
| unop | unr3a1_, ipods require you copy music into specific folders and have all the music copied also registered into the itunes database -- only then will the ipod be able to play the music | 22:14 |

| dubby | lov3^ag3r are ? what are you doing ? | 22:21 |
| fyreme | info vnc4server is that a command? | 22:21 |

| bloodrock | DanielRM, did you try googling | 22:21 |
| Slart | fyreme: the !info command shows information about a package | 22:21 |
| fyreme | thank you | 22:21 |
| RonLut | How can I see a partition (fat32) on windows? I do see it on linux buy windows doesn't recognize it... should I mount it to somewhere? | 22:22 |
| === Spec is now known as Spec[x] | ||
| bloodrock | DanielRM, try linux.com they got alot of howto's | 22:22 |
| Slart | fyreme: so, if you wanted information about the package called.. say..flashplugin-nonfree, you'd write !info flashplugin-nonfree in here and the bot will do the rest | 22:22 |

| DanielRM | bloodrock: most of the things I've found are a bit too vague for me. I suffer from a tendency to take things too literally. | 22:22 |
| RonLut | afallenhope: was this for me? | 22:22 |
| Slart | RonLut: afaik windows mounts partitions automagically.. but I'm not sure.. | 22:23 |
| Felonious | ive yet to see a howto on how to REMOVE grub | 22:23 |
| fyreme | bash: !info: event not found | 22:23 |
| fyreme | i'm guessing that means not on my system? | 22:23 |
| Slart | Felonious: I think you have to install something else | 22:23 |
| ace_suares | Felonious: fdisk /mbr ? | 22:23 |
| afallenhope | Ronald, no. lol I needed it. try using fdisk though.. fdisk -l | 22:23 |
| DanielRM | bloodrock: I'll have a look. Thanks. :) | 22:24 |
| Slart | Felonious: there's no uninstall guides for ubuntu/windows neither.. you just install something else over it | 22:24 |
| ramsey_ | yo | 22:24 |
| Felonious | well Im getting a new PC i want to dedicate to Ubuntu, so I kind of want to take it off of this one | 22:24 |
| ace_suares | !hi | ramsey_ | 22:24 |
| ubottu | ramsey_: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu! | 22:24 |
| ramsey_ | lol hey | 22:24 |
| Felonious | but keep my windows on here | 22:24 |
| Felonious | so fdisk /mbr is what I want? | 22:25 |
| RonLut | Slart: how can I change the partition to ntfs then..? | 22:25 |
| DanielRM | Felonious: the Super GRUB Disk has the option to restore the Windows bootloader. | 22:25 |
| DanielRM | Felonious: then it's just a case of wiping the Linux partition in Windows. | 22:25 |
| ace_suares | Felonious: that was a windows command and this is an ubuntu channel, sorry ! but it might work (at your own risk) | 22:25 |
| === xTheGoat121_ is now known as xTheGoat121x | ||

| fyreme | is wine hard to use? | 22:26 |
| Slart | fyreme: not really | 22:26 |
| DanielRM | ace_suares: it overwrites it in the MBR. | 22:26 |
| fyreme | I can never get programs to run under it | 22:26 |
| ramsey_ | fyreme: no | 22:26 |
| ace_suares | DanielRM: wiping the linux partition will wipe the MBR | 22:26 |
| ace_suares | DanielRM: ? Didnt know that. | 22:26 |
| bloodrock | Felonious, supergrub iso can take out grub and setup a windows boot for ya | 22:26 |
| Slart | fyreme: "sudo apt-get install wine", to install it.. "wine notepad" to run notepad.. change notepad for something else if you want | 22:26 |
| RonLut | Slart: I did that already, but it gives me no option of changing it to other fs or formatting it... | 22:26 |
| Felonious | thank you | 22:26 |
| javier | hello how do i instal a tgz file?? | 22:26 |
| ace_suares | Felonious: yeah supergrubdisk is good ! | 22:26 |
| Felonious | ill find the iso then | 22:27 |
| ramsey_ | you gotta un tar it | 22:27 |
| Bodemium | Which ubuntu uses the least amount of computer resources? KDE ubuntu, GNOME ubuntu, XFCE ubuntu.. etc? | 22:27 |
| fyreme | i think wine is installed | 22:27 |
| Slart | RonLut: right click on the drive, unmount it and try again.. I think there is a "format" option or "create filesystem" in there somewhere | 22:27 |
| ace_suares | javier: most of the time 'tar zxvf filename.tgz' | 22:27 |
| DanielRM | ace_suares: deleting the partition just alters the partition table. | 22:27 |

| Jahromeo | why cant i go sudo kate device.map | 22:27 |
| fyreme | but whenever i try to install a program it gets stuck early in the install | 22:27 |
| ace_suares | Bodemium: Xubuntu | 22:27 |
| DanielRM | ace_suares: it doesn't affect the MBR, as people find to their horror when they forget to update GRUB after doing so and it hates them. | 22:27 |
| Slart | Jahromeo: kate? it's a gui app? use gksudo instead | 22:27 |
| Slart | !gksudo | Jahromeo | 22:27 |
| ubottu | Jahromeo: If you need to run graphical applications as root, use « gksudo », as it will set up the environment more appropriately. Never just use "sudo"! (See http://psychocats.net/ubuntu/graphicalsudo to know why) | 22:27 |

| Slart | SaschaRed: still get the same error when you try to start it? | 22:51 |
| SaschaRed | yep | 22:51 |
| RonLut | Slart: now it works on windows.... it means that windows doesn't recognize fat32 partitions? :\ | 22:51 |

| philh | Defaul1, oh, beyond my experience | 22:51 |
| Slart | RonLut: hmm.. I think windows handles fat32 partitions.. I'm almost very very sure it does | 22:52 |
| Slart | SaschaRed: what was the error again | 22:52 |
| philh | Defaul1, have you installed your kernel source package? | 22:52 |
| philh | Defaul1, and compiler | 22:52 |
| SaschaRed | javaldx: Could not find a Java Runtime Environment! | 22:52 |
| krim | when clicking "settings" on the image in VirtualBox (sorry about the weird message) | 22:52 |
| Slart | SaschaRed: and then it just dies? | 22:52 |
| SaschaRed | yep | 22:52 |
| philh | RonLut, if windows didn't handle fat32 that would be very odd indeed | 22:52 |
| RonLut | philh: yes... I don't know why but now when I changed this partition to ntfs windows does recognize it... | 22:53 |
| Defaul1 | philh, From what I am aware of I have, however Ubuntu Studio runs on another kernel which ends in -rt and I may of had difficulty finding the correct files | 22:53 |
| philh | Defaul1, ah, i see what you mean | 22:54 |
| Slart | SaschaRed: run this in a terminal, "sudo update-alternatives --config java" | 22:54 |
| bloodrock | Defaul1, the rt means its a real time kernel | 22:54 |

| Lagginator | Can someone tell me why things work the second or third or fifth time I try them on Ubuntu, but never the first? | 22:59 |
| Slart | javier: I don't think there is one | 23:00 |
| spoon_man | I don't know how you found a live CD ISO for Edgy on the Ubuntu site -- you have a link? | 23:00 |
| tjforster | let me find the tutorial | 23:00 |
| daigorobr | Lagginator: which things? | 23:00 |
| amen51 | hi, ubuntu hardy recently crashes (completely unresponsive) frequently, any ideas? | 23:00 |
| Lagginator | Everything, pretty much. Grub boot menu for starters | 23:00 |
| tjforster | http://www.pendrivelinux.com/2007/02/12/usb-ubuntu-tutorial-for-linux-users/ | 23:00 |
| Lagginator | I forgot what else because I got frustrated and gave up months ago | 23:01 |
| Mouzz | Slart: I dl'ed the src from svn. INSTALL said to run ./configure but that isn't present so I ran 'autoconf'. This gives errors about "possibly undefined marcos" | 23:01 |
| spoon_man | tjforster regardless, your repository sources have probably been shut down, indefinitely | 23:01 |
| daigorobr | Lagginator: well, everything always worked okay for me... | 23:01 |
| tjforster | http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/releases/edgy/ubuntu-6.10-desktop-i386.iso | 23:01 |
| Mouzz | Slart: (also ran apt-get build-dep) | 23:01 |
| Slart | Mouzz: there's supposed to be a file called configure somewhere in there | 23:01 |
| nickrud | tjforster, you got it from old-releases ;) | 23:01 |
| Lagginator | daigorobr: That's what they all say | 23:01 |
| tjforster | so i have to spend another 6 hours downloading the 8.0something release and reformat the usb key | 23:01 |
| Slart | Mouzz: check if it isn't in a subfolder or something | 23:02 |
| daigorobr | Lagginator: give me a proper example and i try to help you. | 23:02 |
| funkiwan | Can anyone tell me how I can see all of the links to a particular file on my hard drive? | 23:02 |
| tjforster | nickrud i clicked a link on the tutorial | 23:02 |
| Slart | Lagginator: you come in here and ask about a problem you had months ago? tried the latest version? | 23:02 |
| nickrud | tjforster, that's more of an archival site, stuff there doesn't get security treatment anymore. That page you were looking at has a link to the 7.04 version. Although there's probably an 8.04 version if you look | 23:02 |
| ePax | What updates shall i have on? pre-released? backports? or not? | 23:02 |
| EvilDennisR | Mouzz: Whatcha building? | 23:02 |
| funkiwan | For instance, if I do a find command like so: find . -links +1 | 23:02 |
| SaschaRed | maybe I will take this chance to try out open office 3 | 23:02 |
| spoon_man | well, if you'd gone to ubuntu.com, tjforster, it would have pointed you directly to the hardy ISOs :p | 23:02 |
| nickrud | tjforster, that is not an ubuntu site you were working from, we take zero responsibility for it | 23:02 |
| Slart | ePax: security should be enough | 23:02 |
| funkiwan | I'll find all files that have one or more links | 23:03 |
| Mouzz | EvilDennisR: gthumb | 23:03 |
| Lagginator | Slart: No, I'm just here to bitch and moan. I fixed that problem. i also fixed a problem with grub. But they both took many tries of the same goddamn thing | 23:03 |
| tjforster | i tried downloading the 8.04 cd - it said it would take 28 hours | 23:03 |
| funkiwan | But how can I then find what those links are? | 23:03 |
| tjforster | the edgy one came down in about 30 minutes | 23:03 |
| EvilDennisR | Mouzz: How come you're building it by hand ? | 23:03 |
| Mouzz | EvilDennisR: I want to fix a bug | 23:03 |
| spoon_man | "it" as in your browser, or bittorrent? | 23:03 |
| Slart | Lagginator: well.. there is an offtopic channel if you feel you have to let someone know how you feel | 23:04 |
| tjforster | oh well reboot from usb key into windoze and redo the process | 23:04 |
| Lagginator | slart: oh, cool, what is it? | 23:04 |
| tjforster | :( | 23:04 |
| Slart | !ot | Lagginator | 23:04 |
| ubottu | Lagginator: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome! | 23:04 |

| afallenhope | vlad, then you need libssl | 23:29 |
| SakuraKinomoto | hello, can somebody help me to fiz my disk? i formated it as an ext3 partition, but windows insist that this is an ntfs disk, i think there's a deep problem... | 23:29 |
| vlad | afallenhope: libssl already installed and it doesnt works | 23:30 |
| BlakStone | How do I initiate a re-installation of everything firefox 3 would depend upon? | 23:30 |
| afallenhope | then the ftp does not support ssl | 23:30 |
| BlakStone | I have an issue that apprarently nobody else has had with FF3 | 23:30 |
| yoyoned | SakuraKinomoto: can you boot both ubuntu and windows | 23:30 |
| plouffe | this may not be the right place to ask, but does anyone know why the Ubuntu mysql package doesn't recognize InnoDB tables? | 23:31 |
| vlad | afallenhope: yes i can in windows, and i could some time in ubuntu the thing is i dont remember what i did but im almost sure it was something with identd | 23:31 |
| BlakStone | plouffe: mysql4 or 5? | 23:31 |
| plouffe | 5 | 23:31 |
| spoon_man | BlakStone, uninstalling and re-installing FF from within Synaptic would probably be the best bet | 23:31 |
| plouffe | mysql 5.0 | 23:31 |
| funkyHat | BlakStone: what is the issue you have with FF3? | 23:31 |
| BlakStone | spoon_man: that doesn't fix anything, I even tried completely removing everything when i searched for "firefox" and re-installing | 23:32 |
| funkiwan | Can someone help me get tough with the find command re: links? | 23:32 |
| joe_ | Hello | 23:32 |
| SakuraKinomoto | yoyoned: yes, and both systems believe the disk has different partition tyupe | 23:32 |
| [[thufir]] | for a partial upgrade, just keep repeating the process until it completes? | 23:32 |
| spoon_man | BlakStone, then it sounds like your problem is not FF dependencies | 23:32 |
| BlakStone | When I run firefox 3 there is no location box | 23:32 |
| johnnypea | please can somebody tell where shuold I extract this : "Extract the pidgin-awn.so from the archive to ~/.purple/plugins. Create a launcher for Pidgin on AWN, launch it, right click on the Pidgin tray icon and select Plugins. Enable AWN plug in." | 23:32 |
| SakuraKinomoto | ubuntu is installed in this partition, and it is working, and working well | 23:32 |
| yoyoned | SakuraKinomoto: if they both boot and run ok, I don't think it's a problem | 23:32 |
| BlakStone | No location box and no text box when I do a find (CTRL+F) to type in | 23:33 |
| BlakStone | It's very unusual :( | 23:33 |
| firsm | The sound in every single game I tried to play is choppy (stuttering), any idea how to fix this? | 23:33 |
| BlakStone | I've been using epiphany but I miss my plugins | 23:33 |
| BlakStone | add-ins, whatever. | 23:33 |
| yoyoned | SakuraKinomoto: did you install using wubbi | 23:33 |
| BlakStone | I'm open to suggestions (other than reinstall) | 23:33 |
| [[thufir]] | johnnypea: if you're installing pidgin, why not use apt-get? | 23:33 |
| kbrosnan | BlakStone: view -> toolbars -> customize -> restore default set ? | 23:33 |
| SakuraKinomoto | yoyoned: the problem is windows is trying to access that partition, or trying to fix it, and of course i don't want a chkdsk on an ext3 disk | 23:33 |
| BlakStone | I tried that | 23:33 |
| BlakStone | something is bad wrong with how it draws the location and find boxes | 23:34 |
| SakuraKinomoto | yoyoned: no, i created the partition using partition magic and then i isntalled ubuntu in it | 23:34 |
| Mindblow | Goodmorning/evening guys!Greetings from Greece! | 23:34 |
| BlakStone | possibly other things are wrong, those are the 2 I found | 23:34 |
| kbrosnan | BlakStone: try a new profile? http://support.mozilla.com/kb/Profiles | 23:34 |
| BlakStone | I added a new user and they have the same problem | 23:34 |
| yoyoned | SakuraKinomoto: are you using ubuntu now? | 23:34 |
| vlad | no idea afallenhope? | 23:35 |
| spoon_man | BlakStone, did you try apt-get purge? | 23:35 |
| SakuraKinomoto | yoyoned: no, i'm on windows now | 23:35 |
| afallenhope | vlad, I don't know to be honest umm give me a sec. | 23:35 |
| BlakStone | I used "completely remove" and then rm -rf'd ~/.mozilla and /etc/anything mozilla or firefox-y | 23:35 |
| vlad | ok afallenhope | 23:35 |
| yoyoned | Can you view the contents of the linux partition from windows | 23:35 |
| SakuraKinomoto | using a plugin i can | 23:36 |
| SakuraKinomoto | but in this moment, cause windows says the partition is ntfs not ext3 i don't want to use the plugin :( | 23:36 |
| spoon_man | BlakStone, purge also removes the installer package itself, i'm not familiar with "completely remove" | 23:37 |
| SakuraKinomoto | i'm afraid windows will try to access the disk in ntfs way and damage it | 23:37 |
| BlakStone | here's a pic of firefox 3, notice the icons are also not existant in the toolbar: http://i26.tinypic.com/j9394x.png | 23:38 |
| jeriath | anyone have any experience with ati cards and ubuntu | 23:38 |
| jeriath | i used to have an nvidia card but had to downgrade to an ati when the nvidia one died | 23:38 |
| yoyoned | SakuraKinomoto: That is a very unusual problem. I don't know enough about windows to help though, sorry | 23:39 |
| spoon_man | BlakStone, Does View > Toolbars not list a Navigation Toolbar? | 23:39 |
| BlakStone | Yes and it is checked | 23:39 |
| SakuraKinomoto | yoyoned, just help me via linux | 23:39 |
| Mindblow | jeriath ask me i might know | 23:40 |
| SakuraKinomoto | yoyoned: if you can tell me a nice tol to fix it... | 23:40 |
| SakuraKinomoto | *tool | 23:40 |
| Nixnoob | anyone kno how to setup a public proxy using squid? | 23:40 |
| Pici | Nixnoob: Try #squid | 23:41 |
| spoon_man | I dunno, BlakStone, it looks like you've encountered a bug. The only thing I can think of is to downgrade back to FF2 | 23:41 |
| [[thufir]] | following http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/upgrading but keep getting a "partial upgrade" -- how do I know it will ever say "completed"? | 23:41 |
| zipper | How do i check what version of the nvidia driver i'm using? | 23:42 |
| spoon_man | zipper, do you have sysinfo installed? | 23:43 |
| matt444 | how do i refresh mount? | 23:43 |
| yoyoned | SakuraKinomoto: I don't think there is anything wrong with your linux partition, but I understand you concern for windows messing up your drive. My best guess is that when you use the ext3 plugin that allows you to mount a linux partition in windows, than windows somehow remembers it is supposed to see the drive. Perhaps there is a community for the plugin you use that has better information | 23:43 |
| SakuraKinomoto | yoyoned: what idea do you have? i can boot on linux... | 23:43 |
| Jack_Sparrow | [[thufir]] What version did you have before? | 23:43 |
| matt444 | because i accidentally removed a USB drive without unmounting | 23:43 |
| SakuraKinomoto | yoyoned: thanks :) | 23:43 |
| matt444 | and so it still is appearing as mounted | 23:43 |
| Jack_Sparrow | matt444 mount -a | 23:44 |
| matt444 | hmm, that didn't do what i expected | 23:44 |
| cppmonkey | is there a command to clean up old kernels and such like? | 23:44 |
| yoyoned | SakuraKinomoto: just to verify that your linux partition is feally ext3 and maybe you could post your /etc/fstab or show the output of fdisk -l | 23:44 |
| Jack_Sparrow | SakuraKinomoto sudo apt-get install pastebinit && cp /etc/fstab ~/Desktop/Partition_Layout.txt && sudo fdisk -l >> ~/Desktop/Partition_Layout.txt && lsb_release -a >> ~/Desktop/Partition_Layout.txt && cat /home/$USER/Desktop/Partition_Layout.txt | pastebinit (Provide Pastebin link in channel) | 23:45 |
| zipper | spoon_man, found it (/proc/driver/nvidia/version) - thx | 23:45 |
| spoon_man | yep | 23:45 |
| [[thufir]] | Jack_Sparrow: going from ubuntu 7.10 which was reported by the update manager to be up to date. | 23:47 |
| Jack_Sparrow | [[thufir]] Anything unusual in your sources.list? | 23:47 |
| Flik | I am having trouble getting ubuntu loaded. Do you have to have windows OS loaded before loading ubuntu? | 23:48 |
| Jack_Sparrow | [[thufir]] sudo apt-get install pastebinit && cat /etc/apt/sources.list | pastebinit (Provide Pastebin link in channel) | 23:48 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Flik No you dont need windows | 23:48 |
| zeeq | hi, anybody is using ubuntu on intel Q6600??? | 23:48 |
| peleg | I have followed hundreds of forum posts, many howtos and whatever... For weeks now I just can't get totem - or any other software - to play DVDs ... | 23:48 |
| cpm | when i installed ubuntustudio-audio my jack server has HORRIBLE distortion (on every computer I have installed it on) | 23:48 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Flik To get live cd to run this often helps..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 "--" | 23:48 |
| cpm | please advise | 23:48 |
| peleg | do you have any idea what should I look for? Where can I read about it? | 23:49 |
| Jack_Sparrow | !dvd | 23:49 |
| ubottu | For playing DVD, see http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/video.html - "libdvdcss2" can be found at !Medibuntu or (for Feisty and earlier) http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages - Try k9copy (available in !Universe) for backing up DVDs | 23:49 |
| the_phinn_ | hi, i need to find out how to reprogram a bios chip. i know there are devices that can do that. how do i find out about that topic? | 23:49 |
| Flik | thanks jack. I'll give that a shot | 23:49 |
| cabrioleur | peleg, so you did probably install libdvdcss, right? | 23:49 |
| Jack_Sparrow | the_phinn_ YOu want an prom burner or trying to flashyour bios | 23:50 |
| the_phinn_ | Jack_Sparrow, taking out the battery does not work | 23:50 |
| Jack_Sparrow | the_phinn_ If you tried to flash and it went wrong. I dont have good news for you | 23:50 |
| the_phinn_ | i want to find out how to program those chips | 23:51 |
| cpm | my jackd server has HORRIBLE distortion on ALSA output (on every computer I have installed it on).......... any ideas? | 23:51 |
| the_phinn_ | with a device to hook the chips up to etc | 23:51 |
| zeeq | anyone out there using ubuntu on intel Q6600???? | 23:51 |
| Jack_Sparrow | the_phinn_ You need to refine your question.. I will help briefly as it is NOT a ubuntu support question | 23:51 |
| peleg | Jack_Sparrow: thanks. cabrioleur: I have done this: sudo /usr/share/doc/libdvdread3/install-css.sh | 23:52 |
| twobits | I just encountered some nasty trouble with EnvyNG... | 23:52 |
| Jack_Sparrow | the_phinn_ there are tons of eeprom burners on the market | 23:52 |
| twobits | I uninstalled the ubuntu drivers for my video card (nvidia) | 23:52 |
| twobits | and installed the envy ones | 23:52 |
| sammyF_ | I'll try again : anybody knows why a quadcore Q6600 only shows one CPU? | 23:52 |
| cabrioleur | peleg, still not result? Can you play dvd in any other multimedia player (like vlc for instance?) | 23:52 |
| peleg | I have also installed all of the plugins mentioned in the page that Jack_Sparrow sent me to. | 23:52 |
| [[thufir]] | Jack_Sparrow: it's downloading, so just says I can't get that info: http://www.papernapkin.org/pastebin/view/1397/ | 23:52 |
| twobits | and then i installed new drivers via envyng | 23:52 |
| Jack_Sparrow | peleg sudo aptitude install non-free-codecs restricted-extras | 23:52 |
| peleg | cabrioleur: didn't try vlc today; I will try. | 23:52 |

| cpm | zeeq, what is the problem with your Q6600 | 23:53 |
| crimsun_ | cpm: audio troubleshooting is a bit of a crackshot/black magick. Can you be more verbose? | 23:53 |
| zeeq | this is what i m here for...Q6600 showing only one CPU | 23:53 |
| twobits | i didn't quite like those drivers | 23:53 |
| peleg | Jack_Sparrow: did restricted-extras; I will try non-free-codecs as well. | 23:53 |
| twobits | so I uninstalled them, and tried to reinstall the old ubuntu ones (nvidia-glx-new) | 23:53 |
| twobits | but it's not taking for some reason | 23:53 |
| sammyF_ | zeeq: I love you! it means it's probably NOT my CPU :) | 23:53 |
| khajavi | any one know when is the "Free Software Foundation" this year? | 23:53 |
| twobits | i can't run compiz, and the error message I get is that I don't have any whitelisted driver | 23:53 |
| cpm | crimsun_, i can help you debug it if you give me some pointer towards what information I can provide that can be of use to you | 23:53 |
| zeeq | cpm: it shows three CPUs only | 23:53 |
| Jack_Sparrow | [[thufir]] Manually pastebin your sources list | 23:53 |
| cpm | zeeq, bizarro | 23:53 |
| cpm | zeeq, sorry there | 23:53 |
| the_phinn_ | Jack_Sparrow, eeprom burners, that's the keyword i have been looking for. thx | 23:53 |
| sammyF_ | zeeq: okay .. I hate you then. mine shows only one | 23:54 |
| crimsun_ | cpm: start with the alsa-info.sh output (a url) | 23:54 |
| Jack_Sparrow | the_phinn_ np | 23:54 |
| zeeq | is it something to do with my ubuntu release? | 23:54 |
| zeeq | lol | 23:54 |

| sammyF_ | zeeq: no idea. I just upgraded. I just burnt a 8.04 CD and I'll try it from the live-CD to see if it's my install or ubuntu per se | 23:54 |
| peleg | Jack_Sparrow: couldn't find a package named "non-free-codecs" | 23:54 |
| zeeq | i think its one but when I get the screenshots on it shows three...but i m surethis is not the speed of 4 CPUs | 23:54 |
