serkan`cif it says Yes, then you have 3d accel.00:01
kitchekhoda: it's using ati drivers most likely, you will either need to use radeonhd or fglrx driver most likely00:01
PeloFlipFalcon, dual monitor ?00:02
kitchekhoda: if you want ATI supported drivers00:02
FlipFalconnope00:02
Daisuke_Laptopbigjohnto: i find the best method for nic bonding is to take them fishing for a day and drink beer together00:02
bigjohntoheh, no really now ethernet bonding00:02
Daisuke_Laptopoh...  not sure then :(00:02
PeloFlipFalcon,  you might just need to play around with the resolution and the video card settnigs,  assuming you ahve a nvidia card try installing and using with  nvidia-settings00:02

PeloFlipFalcon, is that from the restricted driver manager ?00:07

Reformer81Could someone point me in the right direction to get my keyboard working properly?  It's a fairly regular Microsoft Wireless Desktop 4000.  The only issues I'm really having with it is that only the F1 key works.  I can't use any of the other function keys (Alt-F2, Ctrl-Alt-F3, etc)...00:11
Pelojcovert, if you can put that command directly in selenium that might be better but we have gone beyond my level of skill at this point ( actualy we passed it the moment you talked about selenium)00:12

* backenfutter is conform with pelo, but thinks he doesn't know how many icq windows I have active atm ;)00:35
Pelogregthe1, , PAL is a european standard for dvds, It shouldn't matter in a computer,  if your file is on a dvd , and is a dvd ( ei .VOB) , you might need to in stall  dvd support in ubuntu,  but if it's a avi file or a mpg I don'T think this should be an issue,  have you tried watching hte file already ?00:35
Pelophillip, must how the sound gets directed throught your system,  review the sound trouble shooter guide , I gave you earlier00:36
backenfutterphillip: the technicla problem is, that linux isn't mixing the outgoing sounds... that's all I can say bout that... google ubuntu soundmixing00:36

SubOneI have an issue with my clock. I have an LED clock on the outside of my laptop that gets its time based on the BIOS. I currently have the BIOS set correctly and by extension the LED clock is correct. However, `date` shows the correct time but `/sbin/hwclock` returns the incorrect time and therefor not the actual BIOS time (BIOS != hwclock?). The gnome panel clock says the time specified by hwclock and yet in all of this confusion NTP is 01:08
ejerlazertek_: you vould use vnc01:08

lazertek_ejer cuz i think it opened it on the one i was ssh-ing from01:10
ejerlazertek_: yes, to open it on remote you need to control remote X session with x11vnc for example, or export the local display then open it01:10

Kane1ejer, hmm how do i do that01:11
lazertek_ejer: because sometimes when i do it through the internet transfering the whole screen takes too long01:11
ejerlazertek_: yes, you can export display to be localhost then open rhythmbox01:11
crimsunmaco: perhaps asac has an idea in #ubuntu-mozillateam.  I'm not convinced it's a FF issue.01:12

Filthy-Godtried reporting the bug.02:57
ToastGuyBut that's expected02:57
Filthy-GodYes I know02:57
arrrghhhs33nagai1, it's www-data, and www-data is the "user" who accesses your website.02:57
Filthy-Godbut to fail so hard?02:57
NemesisDglitsj16, that doesn't seem to complain02:57
Filthy-GodIt's so full of fail.02:57

rpj8Filthy-God: And did you try running from a command line to see if you get anything odd as output?02:57
Filthy-GodIf command prompt didn't whitescreen in the use02:57
Filthy-GodI could try it02:57
Filthy-GodWhile FF3 is running02:58
glitsj16NemesisD: we'll get to the mplayer error in a minute .. for that it's usefull to open a few pulseaudio utils, do you have pavucontrol, paprefs etc. installed ?02:58
stodge??02:58
arrrghhhFilthy-God, he means start out in the commandline02:58
PiciFilthy-God: Are you using compiz?02:58

PiciFilthy-God: hmmmmm02:58
s33nagai1k, thanks arrrghhh!02:58
cdj26how did this happen, Filthy-God, i've never heard of problems like this with hardy02:58
arrrghhhs33nagai1, www-data is not a directory it's a user02:58
bradfordHow can I check my modem to see if it is working?02:58
NemesisDglitsj16, i believe so yes, interestingly enough though when i run the init.d script, pidof pulseaudio returns nothing, so i don't think its starting02:58
ejerconnect to google bradford?02:59
nickruds33nagai1 ls -l /var/www -d , that shows the owner. Normally it's root, but if you expect apache to be able to write in there (like a site that allows file uploads) you need to have at least the dir you will upload to owned by www-data02:59
bradfordyes02:59
iceswordnice, it is, ultamatix02:59
bradfordthis is on a different computer02:59
bradfordpppconfig gives an error every time02:59
glitsj16NemesisD: it can start without a pid, i believe that's a config setting in /etc/pulse/daemon.conf02:59
nickrudicesword no, it's not. It s a tangled piece of <word I can't use in a family channel>03:00
NemesisDglitsj16, would it also then not show up with ps aux|grep pulse ?03:00
s33nagai1arrrghhh: How do I use it? add a password and login? Then I have access to /var/www.... Or how do I make www-data the owner?03:00
arrrghhhanyone know how to add windows to grub?  i made sure windows didn't mess up my mbr, and it boots fine from the boot menu but not from grub03:00
JDogHermanIs there an easy way to recover from a hacked ubuntu box?03:00
Filthy-Godkk, I decided to close firefox and it closed clean this time03:00
glitsj16NemesisD: easily checked though .. try playing something through paplay from terminal .. and yes, in thta case it wouldn't03:00
Filthy-GodI didn't have it running for more than 2 minutes03:00
Filthy-Godso that is good03:00
kevin__when i install the ubuntu, i can nit find the wired connection in my network03:00
bradfordreinstall grub03:01
nickrudarrrghhh what partition is your windows on03:01
Filthy-Godstarted it in command prompt03:01
arrrghhhs33nagai1, i'd encourage you read the man page on chown... but the command would be "sudo chown -R www-data /var/www/"03:01
s33nagai1arrrghhh: used to... You have to do something with the chainloader command in grub03:01
Balian#ubuntu-pl03:01
historpj8: Nah i'm compiling the modules to the normal .19 config03:01
glitsj16NemesisD: that's one of the reasons i run pulseaudio daemon as a user only, with a killable pid, but i'm the only user on this machine so it may not be an option in your case03:02
NemesisDglitsj16, failed to open file 'test.mp3'03:02
iceswordnickrud, well, they say it is an app which will let ppl run more games in linux, what is your point03:02

rpj8histo: Heh, I'm not sure you know what you're doing, because the .config file is only the settings for compiling your kernel03:02
nickrudarrrghhh you need to add  map(0,2) <newline> map(2,0) to the windows stanza (assuming you don't have mixed pata/sata, in which case I bow out)03:02
glitsj16NemesisD: could you paste your /etc/pulse/* files ? .. just to check how things are configured03:02
Filthy-GodMaybe I should go to openSUSE03:03

ubottusnarkster: 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. :-)06:07

epipyhtealso, try www.apple.com i heard their BETTAR06:08
FAJALOUitai-michaelson:  even if one is swap? and so how should i go around making one root one home, and one swap... should i use an extended partition?06:08
invisibleprisonbderrly... do you know how I would change the gstreamer settings? at least as a temp fix... assuming that's the problem06:08
bderrlykushalsejwal, i'm not sure what to tell you, it sounds like a network issue more than anything06:08
dropknee#freenode06:08
Timbderry: it's reading the CD OK but can't open file /var/lib/apt/lists/Ubuntu (etc, etc) 13 Permission Denied06:08

bderrlykushalsejwal, it means don't use ipv6 for dns06:17
bderrlykushalsejwal, shouldn't be a problem06:18
acrouseyrww: thanks, will try06:18

bderrlyTim, no worries, you can setup wifi from cli, a bit tougher, or plug in some ethernet cable :)06:22
bderrlykushalsejwal, maybe they're throttling you due to excessive torrent traffic?06:22

Stargazer[Ubuntu 8.04] what would be a good program for running/testing with "Virtual Machines" ?06:30
LogicalDashStargazer: VirtualBox OSE06:30
bderrlyevilbug, not sure, it'll remove xfce though ;) and that was the only requirement i saw in your statement06:30
FAJALOUStargazer: virtualbox06:31
FAJALOUit's in the repos06:31
wbmjStargazer: Vbox is easiest to use06:31
rbdanyone know if there's ubuntu/debian debs for the most recent versions of asterisk? I'm not finding much... might have to resort to using the .tar.gz06:31
rbdthis would be for hardy, btw06:31
rwwStargazer: yup, virtualbox. it's in the repos as virtualbox-ose06:31
LogicalDashrbd: check getdeb.net06:31
evilbugbderrly- i'd prefer having everything removed. maybe what wbmj said.06:31
casemodsbderrly: when it asks for my password, it wont let me enter it06:31
bderrlyevilbug, did you install xubuntu or vanilla ubuntu?06:32
evilbugbderrly- xubuntu.06:32
LogicalDashcasemods: If you're not seeing any ***** where you'd expect, that's just the normal way it works. It's listening, really.06:32
bderrlycasemods, type away, the terminal doesn't echo anything when it wants a password06:32
rwwcasemods: even though nothing appears when you type, it is receiving your password. just type it (ignoring the lack of *), and press enter06:32
casemodsthanks :)06:32
bderrlyevilbug, ahh, ok, so then you probably do have xubuntu-desktop meta-package installed, you could do an aptitude remove xubuntu-desktop, but if you look at the deps for that package there are a ton, some you probably don't want to remove06:33
casemods"sudo apt-get install wine"06:33
casemodsReading package lists... Done06:33
itai-michaelsoncasemods, have a look here : http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Hardy06:33
casemodsBuilding dependency tree... Done06:33
casemodsPackage wine is not available, but is referred to by another package.06:33
casemodsThis may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or06:33
casemodsis only available from another source06:33
casemodsE: Package wine has no installation candidate06:33
FloodBot2casemods: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.06:33
rbdLogicalDash: thanks for the site, but no luck06:33
evilbugbderrly- so i might just want to install fluxbunt if i decide to completely remove xfce?06:33
LogicalDashcasemods: Keep that terminal open, I'm looking up a command to fix that...06:34
bderrlyevilbug, i would recommend that06:34
evilbugbderrly- thanks.06:34
bderrlyevilbug, unless you're really crunched for hard disk space then it won't hurt to leave it06:34
LogicalDashcasemods: see this page: http://www.winehq.org/site/download-deb06:34
LogicalDashcasemods: You're running Ubuntu Hardy btw06:35
chalcednyi've got a problem setting up my netgear router. i believe the router is 255.255.255.0 and my computer (ubuntu Hardy 8.4) is looking for 255.255.255.255 ?06:35
casemodswhats that mean?06:35
chalcednyis that something i can call tech support back for, or something i need to set in my computer(s) ?06:35
itai-michaelsonLogicalDash, these are development versions (in the wineHQ site)06:35
LogicalDashcasemods: Ubuntu Hardy Heron is the name of your operating system06:35
bderrlychalcedny, 255.255.255.0 is your netmask more than likely, not the ip of the router06:35
rwwchalcedny: Your router isn't 255.255.255.0. That's the netmask. Your router is probably something like 192.168.XXX.XXX06:35
casemodswhen i click the link that says "click this to install" it says "fire fox doesnt know how to handle because :apt: isnt associated06:35
LogicalDashitai-michaelson: Yeah, and that seems to be what they want people to use06:36
bderrlychalcedny, the ip of the router is probably 192.168.0.106:36
rwwchalcedny: it's a computer setting, not a router problem06:36
itai-michaelsonLogicalDash, don't you think its better he adds multiverse and installs wine from the repos>?06:36
Amunglitsj16: dunno. whenever i copy a encrypted dvd, it shows up as blocks of green and other mutilated colors.06:37
itai-michaelsoncasemods, did you install that ubuntu yourslef?06:37

planet_xanyone know how to enable compiz fusion/advanced desktop effects on the EEE PC 1000H? Been looking everywhere, any assistance greatly appreciated just keeps saying desktop effects cannot be enabled06:37
LogicalDashitai-michaelson: the WINE development versions present the same user interface and everything, they just have some experimental features that make (say) some installers work better06:37
itai-michaelsoncasemods, so you are probably running the latest version called "hardy"06:37
casemodsits an old disc...06:38

Vampymilk : it was considered a security update but it was once again.. microsofts way to control its users06:45
ProN00bmlLK, well, it is not intentionally cripled in sp1... and it its security effect is dubious (it won't help you because when it works, you are already infected, it just makes worms spread slightly slower)06:45
LSD|Ninja...06:45
p4_xxxthe last time i use Bittorrent, my firewall show me a lot of ip's  that w i was beeing connected too so i close it06:46
ProN00bmlLK, its against portscanning, it prevents any program from attempting to open more than 10 connection at once06:46
itai-michaelsoncasemods, btw why do you need winedoors?06:46
ProN00bp4_xxx, you fail at understanding stuff06:46

p4_xxxthats why i asked if it is secure06:47

ubotturaj_: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!07:00
wbmjFAJALOU: Is network-manager set to roaming07:00
ProN00bFAJALOU, distance too high, networks have keys he doesn't07:00
FAJALOUwbmj, network-manager.... is that networks in system>administration/07:00
kindofabuzzwhen doing a cp /there/foo /here/foo, is there coomand to replace /here/foo if already in that dir?  did that make sense?07:01
wbmjFAJALOU: yes07:01
=== VERA_AN is now known as CwE_17LonELyhOLi
geniikindofabuzz: The default behaviour is to overwrite07:01
acrouseypron00b: I'm assuming that they are because when i go into ubuntu's networking i see it under hosts07:01
morbyt1has anybody an idea, why sound in flash videos is not working? other sound works flawlessly07:01
FAJALOUwbmj: yes it is...07:01
kindofabuzzgenii: so no need to put /here/foo if already in the dir you want the copied file in?07:02
Bogus8I need to temp mount an nfs (manual mount) ... I know how and can do it with sudo but then it's owned by root and I can't copy files into it... I'm pretty sure exports is correct I think it's the mount part07:02
wbmjFAJALOU: does he see networks when clicking the netwok-manager applet07:02
ProN00bacrousey, oh, thats quite good, with windows sharing enabled on the mac you should be able to find the shared mac folders there then07:02
Bogus8with samba I have to mount and set uid and gid ...shouldn't I hav eto do the same with nfs?07:02
geniikindofabuzz: If you're in the dir use:     cp /from/wherever .07:02
FAJALOUwbmj: he doesn't see anything...07:03
geniikindofabuzz: the "." means "here"07:03
kindofabuzzgenii: thanks buddie07:03
geniikindofabuzz: np07:03
wbmjFAJALOU: there is no networks listed at all07:03
ProN00bBogus8, samba is windows tech, i asume you need to set uid and gid because they don't fully exist on the target system and or ain't transfered, that will not likely be the case with nfs which has not been designed with windows in mind07:03
FAJALOUnetwork-manager-applet; where is that, is it up at the top, with the two computer?07:03
FAJALOU*computers07:03
wbmjFAJALOU: next to the clock07:04
Bogus8ProN00b: ok, but when I do an ls -l on my freshly mounted dir it's owned by root with no write perms to anyone else07:04
FAJALOUBogus8:  sudo chown <username> <mountpoint of ntfs>07:04
acrouseypron00b: is there any better way then mine to diagnose if the two computers are actually connected?07:04
FAJALOUor have you tried using ntfs-3g07:04
Bogus8FAJALOU: not NTFS but NFS07:04
ProN00bacrousey, yes lower level ones, but your own shows a clear connection so those are not needed07:05
FAJALOUwbmj:  none show up.07:05
acrouseywell, i was seeing stuff in hosts07:05
ProN00bthat means the network connection works07:05

FAJALOUwbmj:  yes they show up.07:07
ProN00bBogus8, well, a folder doesn't change permissions because you mount something to it, but its contents then have the perms of the remote stuff07:07
Bogus8kindofabuzz: yes, that is what I have done... but when you sudo mount it mounts it as root and regular users don't have perms to write to it... that is my problem07:07
wbmjFAJALOU: probably no good signals nearby07:08
ProN00bchalcedny, actually that should be detected automatically by default07:08
FAJALOUwbmj:  there is one downstairs for him07:08
Bogus8ProN00b: doh!  I did mkdir as root... not sure how or why.. probably habit of typing sudo :(07:08

ProN00bBogus8, you mean the permissions of files and subdirs of that did you mounted a nfs share on don't allow your current user to write ?07:17
FAJALOUwbmj:  b/c it's not bc43xx ,should he have to use ndiswrapper?07:17
Bogus8ProN00b: I think my NFS problem is due to a mounting problem on the "server"07:17
ProN00bBogus8, can you access the files as root ?07:17
Bogus8ProN00b: when I mount the drive to the users dir it changes the perms to root even though I am mounting with mount -a and it's set up right in fstab07:18
wbmjFAJALOU: I don't think so....otherwise he wouldn't have a wireless entry in Network07:18
FAJALOUwbmj: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=84506707:18
ProN00bBogus8, again, can you access the mounted files as root ?07:19
Bogus8ProN00b: yes07:19
ProN00bBogus8, as i said, nfs mirrors the privileges of the remote system on your local one, so if they are only root accessible or accessible for a uid/gid that doesn't exist on your machine only root will be able to access them there too07:20
Bogus8ProN00b: and as I said, I realized my problem isn't on the client of the nfs it's on the server... the mounting of the actual drive is screwed up07:20
theRealBallso what's the next best filesystem?07:20
Tm_T!best | theRealBall07:20
ubottutheRealBall: Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task. It's up to you to choose, depending on your preferences, features you require, and other factors. Do NOT take polls in the channel. If you insist on getting people's opinions, ask BestBot in #ubuntu-bots.07:20

Bogus8ProN00b: ok... I created a dir called "raid" in my users home dir.  it was created and is owned by that user.   Then I mount my raid to it via puting the line in fstab and using sudo mount -a   ... at this point the perms change like root owns it since it mounted it07:25
AgentKCan anybody recommend good resources for linux/ubuntu sysadmins ie network services, security stuff?07:25
FAJALOUwbmj:  make sure it's _not_ listed?07:25
cwilluBogus8, the filesystem itself needs to be chmod/chown'd07:25
cwilluBogus8, i.e., mount it, and _then_ set the permissions07:25
wbmjFAJALOU: yes07:25
FAJALOUwbmj ok.07:25
ProN00bBogus8, ls -lah|grep raid in home dir before and after mount07:26
Balian#ubuntu-pl07:26
Bogus8cwillu: I think I get it... because I mkfs.ext3 as root it set it as root07:26
ProN00bBogus8, also ls -lah raid after mount07:26
cwilluBogus8, well, more like root ownership is just the default07:26
Bogus8ProN00b: yes, and that is when it changes from my user to root (after sudo mount -a)07:26

egoleohey guys how do i set time zone on ubuntu plse using terminal07:27
wbmjauto lo iface lo inet loopback07:27
ProN00bBogus8, i still don't believe folders change ownership because you mount something to them07:27

cwilluProN00b, yes, they do07:28
kindofabuzzcan i burn a cd iso to a DVD?  will it work the same?  i'm out of cd's =(07:28
ProN00bcwillu, really ?07:28
cwilluProN00b, if the root of the mount has different permissions on it, then that's what the mount point gets07:28
Bogus8ProN00b: it's because I never chowned that file system... it's brand new07:28
Bogus8cwillu: you were correct07:28
FAJALOUwbmj: PM?07:28
msandbukindofabuzz: yes it will07:28
wbmjFAJALOU:ok07:28
msandbukindofabuzz: just did the same for about 5 min ago ^^07:29
Bogus8ProN00b: thanks for your attempts, it really is appreciated... it led me to stop barking up the wrong tree of NFS07:29
kindofabuzzmsandbu: cool thanks07:29
cwilluProN00b, just think of the permissions as being set on the '.' entry, rather than the named entry that points to it07:29
Bogus8cwillu: thanks for pointing out my oversight on the newly created filesystem perms (I won't forget that one again ;)  )07:29
cwillui.e., chown /foo/bar/baz/.07:29
ProN00bcwillu, so a ls in the subdir of the mount wouldn't change ?07:29
cwillu?07:29
cwilluif you're in /mnt, and do an ls -l, you'll see whatever permissions are on /mnt in the root filesystem07:30
cwilluif you then mount something on /mnt, then you'll see whatever permissions are on / in _that_ filesystem07:30
ProN00bso those will change if i unmount and mount and the dirs perms are different from the fs root node ?07:30
cwilluyes07:30
ProN00band how do i change the fs perms, just chmod it (sda) while its mounted ?07:31
cwilluProN00b, one you cd into a mount point, you're not in the original filesystem any more, and always the '.' entry that matters07:31

jalonsoany ideas on what i can do?08:00
FlannelBloodhound: it will use regular user accounts, so create users for your friends (through users and groups)08:00
FlannelBloodhound: To connect, you use any sftp client.  Almost any graphical FTP client can do sftp.  Filezilla is one (which works in both Linux and Windows)08:00
BloodhoundFlannel, oke =) sounds great how to get it? with synaptec?08:00
FlannelBloodhound: yeah, install "openssh-server"08:00
FlannelBloodhound: And then you just need to make sure you forward port 22 on your router to your computer.08:01

Bloodhoundnot sftp?08:02

jalonsoalexbobp: it says that no default action has been associated with it, if I click it the drop down menu is supposed to open up my home directory08:07

jalonsoalexbobp: Oh, where is that at?08:08
alexbobpjalonso: I dunno, it's been a while since I used a graphical file browser, but check in the control panel08:09
chalcedonyFlannel ethernet.08:09
FlannelBloodhound: I don't know if I'd call it a security risk.  But, there's the potential for a security risk I guess, sure.  If you have strong passwords you'll be fine.  If you're worried about brute force, you might want to look into something like DenyHosts, that'll lock someone out after they fail logging in X times.08:09
alexbobpjalonso: you might also be able to set it by right-clicking a folder and hitting properties08:09
Flannelchalcedony: Do you know your router is doing DHCP?  Try setting up a static IP address, that might fix it08:09

Zeroyezso i don't suppose i can take ~28 pixels off the desktop workspace height?08:47
glitsj16high-freq: you might wanna check out a package called checkinstall .. basically what it does is replace the 'make install' for you (you just replace that by sudo checkinstal after a regular make) and it produces an entry into apt so you can easily uninstall things you compiled later on even when you ditched the compile dir ..08:47

notabeneikonia, what limitiations does server have against desktop?09:03
cwillunotabene, are you using a 64 bit computer?09:03
geniicwillu: Incidentally linux-server or ubuntu-server is not a package. LAMP needs tasksel09:03

cwillugenii, linux-server is the package he wants09:04

utnubudnaicwillu, why?09:38
DistroJockey_zenon_, :)09:38
johnzThe SCP part is the one at the bottom...09:38
cwilluutnubudnai, because you want to stay in this channel :p09:38
_zenon_DistroJockey, How do you generate that history on command line?09:38
utnubudnaiOK,I know that it's a bad word!09:39
DistroJockey_zenon_, not sure really, that's why I use it :)09:39
sravan_cwillu, it,s not enable09:39
notabeneactually, what does restricted package mean?09:39
cwillujohnz, have you set up public keys or anything?09:40
casso_zenon_, don't know09:40
_zenon_DistroJockey, Is that list complete? Seems to be missing something.09:40
yowlerhey, can someone just say my name here? just trying irssi if it blinks when I get a new msg09:40
sravan_cwiilu , i lost all the minimze windows09:40
_zenon_casso, Is it wrong to assume it only keeps track of synaptic-mastered installs?09:40
cwillusravan, what kind of video card do you have?09:40
linxehyowler: boo09:40
DistroJockey_zenon_, should be (and I assume will be the same output as whatever the cli command is)09:40

plouffeI keep losing my sound on Ubuntu and can't get it back without rebooting the computer. It happens a lot now.09:41
_zenon_DistroJockey, Hm... ok, thanks09:41
yowlerplouffe: it happens to me when using the same time firefox and amarok to play music09:41
cwilluplouffe, next time it happens, close firefox completely, and try again, ping me if that gets it working again09:41
plouffeI have tried that, doesn't work09:41
am1Hi all.  Sorry to interrupt.  Anybody know if the 8.10alpha3 has fixes for the PulseAudio issues?  I need to make some recordings in a few days, and I haven't been able to get my USB microphone to work.  I'm tired of messing around with it.  I figure I could downgrade to 7.10 (which worked fine) or see if the Alphas are any better.09:41
plouffecwillu I have tried that it didn't help09:42
DistroJockey_zenon_, no problem. You could also look in  /var/cache/apt/archives/  at the file dates (there is a command to do what you want though I am sure)09:42
cwilluam1, downgrade then.  don't inflict 8.10 on yourself, it's not ready09:42
yowlerplouffe: kill your music player too if there is any09:42
plouffecwillu I also tried killing and restarting audiopulse, doesn't help09:42
_zenon_DistroJockey, Thanks :)09:42
cwilluam1, if you have work to do, don't mess around with alpha operating systems :p09:42
DistroJockey_zenon_, you're welcome09:42
johnzcwilly, what do you mean09:42
plouffeyowler no music player running atm09:42
cwillujohnz, cwillu :p09:42
cwillujohnz, can you log in to that server with that user name and that password via ssh?09:43
cwilluplouffe, is it broken right now?09:43
sravan_cwillu, is it possble for u to remote login to my laptop and show me how to do it?09:43
plouffecwillu yes09:43
johnzno, it's blocked from outside09:43
yowlerIt happens to me quite often, all I do is kill firefox ps and amaroks ps.09:43
Flannelam1: Ask in #ubuntu+109:43
cwillujohnz, I'm a bit confused09:44
glitsj16am1: besides the good advice concerning downgrading, there's http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=866965 which concentrates on pulseaudio fixes in intrepid alpha 3 if you haven't seen that already09:44
cwillujohnz, where are you running the ant script from?09:44
johnzfrom ant.. and yes I can connet, but it you try it will fail09:44
cwillujohnz, does apt have a scp target that knows how to specify a password automatically?09:45
cwillujohnz, because you're not specifying the password in the scp target09:45
edmooreanyone here about to help me design a headless server box for $500 for max compatibility with ubuntu server?09:45

johnzcwillu no09:46
cwilluplouffe, and firefox is closed right now?09:46
johnzokey, I have done that to.. didn't work09:46
johnzlets test again09:46
Flanneledmoore: try #ubuntu-server or #ubuntu-offtopic09:46
cwillujohnz, show me09:46
plouffecwillu I restarted it, but I will close it again09:46
edmooreFlannel: grand, thank you09:46
plouffecwillu closed now, cache cleared09:46
cwilluplouffe, cache wasn't necessary :p09:47
am1Thanks guys.  glitsj16: I saw some similar instructions for 8.04 and tried them with no luck.  But I'm tempted to try the alpha, although I understand cwillu's warning.09:47
plouffecwillu I'm just saying it. I have nothing else running, but I get no sound anywhere if I try09:47
johnzokej09:47
kane77can I somehow change the resolution of the text terminal?09:47
yowlerplouffe: which player were you using again?09:48
cwillukane77, ctrl [+], ctrl [-]09:48
plouffeflash plugin in firefox. But it's the same for ekiga or totem etc09:48
johnzhttp://paste.ubuntu.com/32521/09:48
johnzlook at this then09:48
plouffeyowler It's been happening for the last couple of days09:48
cwillujohnz, I'm not sure, but I don't think scp lets you provide the password on the command line.  let me check though09:49
johnzthx09:49
cwillujohnz, easiest thing to do would be to run ssh-keygen on your local box09:49
johnzcause that's not working09:50
gunnarhi, after installing dmraid and successfully set up a Nvraid .. when rebooting i get a Easybox shell.. ?09:50
yowlerplouffe: Try downgrading firefox prior to 3.0 just to see if the issue resides in firefox09:50
arcskyanyone know if its possible that when i make a new tab in firefox i want it to go autmaticlly to www.google.com  ?09:50
cwillujohnz, and then copy the contents of ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub into a file called /home/<login name>/.ssh/authorized_keys09:50
MaGiCShRooMkalhmera :)09:50
cwillujohnz, then it won't need a password to authenticate09:50
yowlermine is in firefox09:50
plouffeyowler I am using 32bit firefox on 64bit amd. I couldn't get java to run on regular firefox09:50
johnzokey, but I would rather get this working09:50
plouffeIt's version 2.x09:51
cwillujohnz, you can't specify a password to scp like that09:51
johnzit should work.. I'm just to stupied to get it to work09:51
johnzlet me se ?09:51
glitsj16am1: well you can always run the intrepid alpha 3 if you have the HD space and do the work on a more stable 8.04 kernel if needed.. and yes, the same author of that post has a well documented ubuntuforums page on pulseaudio .. it's updated recently, might be worth a second look to get pulseaudio configured properly ..09:51

kane77cwillu, hmm.. the ctrl + does not seem to work..09:52
plouffeyowler but I just clicked on a regular movie file and it ran without sound in totem movie player09:52
cwillukane77, my bad, ctrl + shift + [+]09:52
_zenon_kane77, If you are refering to the tty's that should be done at startup09:52
cwillu(or hit ctrl + [keypad +]09:52
legend2440arcsky: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/77709:52
yowlerplouffe: if you restart your pc it works again fine right?09:52
plouffeyowler I have tried with and without pulseaudio. And yes my volume is turned all the way up. And yes only way is to reboot, but it happens too often now09:53
RutzHow do I make ubuntu more lightweight?09:53
yowlerit happens random or when doing something specific?09:53
cens0reda 2005 Pew Research Center poll found that 42 percent of Americans hold strict creationist views that “living things have existed in their present form since the beginning of time”09:53
kane77_zenon_, yes, I'm talking about tty's.. I just bought 22" and the resolution that it's using now makes the letters too big (and I'm not making good use of the extra space)09:54
plouffeyowler I don't know what causes it. Might be flash plugin related09:54
cens0red64 percent said they were open to the idea of teaching creationism in addition to evolution in public schools09:54
Flannelcens0red: please stop09:54
cens0red38 percent said they think evolution should be replaced by creationism in biology classrooms.09:54
cens0redFlannel soz. Forgot I was in this channel.09:54
plouffeyowler but it doesn't happen every time I use the flash plugin09:54
_zenon_kane77,  You could look at this https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ChangeTTYResolution09:54
_zenon_kane77, I hope you find what you seek09:55
yowlertry and kill firefox proccess and reopen totem09:55
cwillujohnz, any luck?09:55
kane77_zenon_, this seems like what I'm looking for..09:55
cwillujohnz, (man scp, man ssh should be useful)09:55
kane77_zenon_, thank you09:55
_zenon_kane77, good. I wish you the best of luck.09:55
plouffeyowler I just did that, I killed firefox, it's not running and there is no sound in totem09:56
yowlerhmm09:56
johnzI know how to get them to work in linux, it's more the damn ANT script..09:57
RutzSome help me please to make ubuntu more lightweight09:57
FlannelRutz: Have you tried xubuntu?09:58
cwillujohnz, how are you specifying the password to scp?09:58
RutzFlannel: Is it good?09:58
FlannelRutz: It is.  You should check it out.09:58
johnzit asks me for it09:58
ufkRutz, define lightweight.. you don't want gnome ? or X? or kde ? or just remove unneeded applications ?09:58
johnzI'm typing it in afterwards09:59
tmjbHello I have problem with opengl on my latop i have Intel  915GM/GMS/910GML Express Graphics Controller (rev 03)  the and the lxinfo | grep render says OpenGL renderer string: Mesa GLX Indirect. How to change this ?09:59
cwillujohnz, lol, that's what I was asking long before :p09:59
johnz ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub into a file called /home/<login name>/.ssh/authorized_keys09:59
johnzbut in ant it don't ask09:59
johnzif it fails it fails09:59
Rutzufk: I have been using windows xp for some while and I find it very fast and lightweight (booting, starting applications...) but ubuntu seems slow to me :(10:00
cwillujohnz, no, that's fine.  is /www/common/... the path, or is it /something/else/and/then/www/common/...?10:00
Rutzufk: so I wanted a fast and easy linux, ubuntu is easy but kinda...slow10:00
Sang_Prabuhi all10:01
ufkRutz, what hardware do you have?10:01
cwillujohnz, the scp command right now isn't working from under the users homedir, but from /10:01
Rutzufk: it shouldn't make difference because I ran winxp on the same machine10:01
RutzFlannel: thanks, I'll try it out a lil later10:01
cwillujohnz, so it's trying to scp from /www/common/... rather than {basedir}/www/common (presuming that basedir isn't null)10:01
th0rRutz, consider a lighter window manager, both gnome and kde run slower than xp on most hardware10:01
Boghufk, how have you installed Ubuntu?10:01
johnzokej10:02
ufkBogh, what do you mean how ?10:02
Boghufk, Wubi, dual boot on same HD or different HD?10:02
Rutzth0r: can you advise me some wmanagers, with as much functionality as explorer.exe in win but fast10:02
johnzso what should I change in order to get it worked man10:02
RobertWHursthi there I'm haveing a hard lockup when runing bittorrent files is anyone willing to help?10:02
Boghufk, or are you running Ubuntu on the Live CD only? :-)10:02
ufkah? xfce is faster then gnome ?10:03
ufkBogh: no i have it installed on 5 different computers.10:03
Rutzufk: is it not?10:03
RobertWHurstUbuntu Hardy10:03
th0rRutz, I like xfce as it is current and light, but I am about to try enlightenment again after years with xfce just for fun10:03
cwillujohnz, what is the dir it should be in?10:03
Boghufk, yeah, Xubuntu is fast10:03
johnz${basedir}/www/common/search/enirogo/scripts10:03
RutzI can't discern between wm and de's...10:03
johnzit should end up there10:03
ufki didn't ask regarding Xubuntu.. i asked regarding xfce specifically10:03
cwillujohnz, scp foo@bar:baz/bing is relative to the home dir, scp foo@bar:/baz/bind is relative to the root10:03
Rutzis enlighenment de ?10:03
Boghufk, but Gnome should be faster than WinXP, you might have a problem with your installation/setup10:04
cwillujohnz, <arg line="${scp.username}@${scp.host}:${basedir}${scp.host.dir.css}"/> should do it then10:04
Boghufk, xfce is faster, yes10:04
RutzBogh: is kde faster too?10:04
ufkBogh: that's why you addressed it to me.. i didn't ask any question, Rutz did.10:04
th0rRutz, enlightenment is old tech....been around for years. It is quick and really good looking, but you need to configure EVERYTHING10:04
johnzokey testing10:04
Rutzth0r: what do you mean configure?10:04
BoghRutz: no10:04
th0rRutz, you know the old linux joke....the good news is you can configure everything, the bad news is you have to configure everything10:05
RutzBogh: Gnome os faster than kde? I didn't notice difference when trying 7.04 in past10:05
th0rRutz, you usually have to add new stuff manually, the menu editor leaves a lot to be desired10:05
BoghRutz: Some will say it's the same, some will say Gnome and other KDE. :-)10:05
Rutzth0r: if in the end it becomes superfast I'll give it my time10:06
th0rRutz, but even after all these years if you play with the themes the interface can be gorgeous10:06
cwilluRutz, are you running with desktop effects enabled?10:06
cwilluRutz, windows has had a very light form of compositing forever, which does make things like exposes feel way way faster10:06
Rutzcwillu: no, I have disabled all fancy stuf I could10:06
th0rRutz, it is fast...stick with E16...E17 has been in development for years and they have finally attained development status <smile>10:06
johnzcwillu, it don't work either10:07
cwilluRutz, enabling desktop effects, or running xcompmgr (although it's sketchy) will improve the subjective performance10:07
th0rRutz, E16 is available as enlightenment in synaptic10:07
cwillujohnz, what is basedir?10:07
dpiccan somebody help me? i just did a fresh install of ubuntu but i think my software sources list may be broken. i can't check off "Important Security Updates (hardy-security)" in the gui10:07
Rutzcwillu: what do you measn. do you say 'it seems faster' ? :)10:07
johnzbasedir  = .10:07
Flanneldpic: close the GUI, pastebin your sources.list10:08
DistroJockeydpic, what version of Ubuntu?10:08
=== ktogias_ is now known as ktogias
th0rRutz, consider running gkrellm to keep an eye on things like mem and cpu load...it will help you figure out what is consuming resources and slowing things down10:08
cwillujohnz, so, the home directory?10:08
morbyt1Rutz: thats exactly what it is :) eg minimising windows seems faster because its very smooth in visual...10:08
johnzyeah10:08
dpicDistroJockey: 8.04.110:08
morbyt1Rutz: and doesnt waste cpu time because its mainly done by the graphics card10:09
Rutzth0r: I am talking of a fresh install actually10:09
johnzcwillu this is strange.. I should perhaps add the password to a file10:10
dpicFlannel: http://pastebin.com/m42903fb4 i've done some messing with it sine the problem occurred but this is what it looks like now10:10
th0rRutz, fresh ubuntu runs gnome....I avoid both gnome and kde for the load they put on resources10:10
Rutzmorbyt1: I disabled effects in windows too, I think you are saying some nonsense, no offence10:10
dpiccine*10:10
dpicsince*10:10
Rutzth0r: so, xfce10:10
Rutzor enlightenment10:10
th0rRutz, I agree about the effects....my idle cpu load with compiz on is over 20% without it is 1-2%10:11
morbyt1uhh10:11
morbyt1that much? :)10:11
Rutzit's not only about that, I just hate the effects, they distract:)10:11
Flanneldpic: you want to disable -proposed.  But you've got security enabled (I'd also disable backports, but thats just me)10:12
th0rRutz, xfce first, then enlightenment. You should have a decent working xfce in a day...enlightenment will take longer10:12
RutzI don't have reasons to have them on10:12
Flanneldpic: Does sudo apt-get update give you errors?10:12
cwillujohnz, you can't provide a password to scp without tricking it into thinking it's reading it from you directly10:12
Rutzth0r: well, I wasted quite a lot of time with windos registry tweaking too)10:12
th0rRutz, I know....I have an entire folder full of xp tweaks.10:13
Rutzheh=)10:13
mchasar1hi10:13
th0rRutz, the good news...there is no registry to hack <smile>10:13
mchasar1is there a special room for eeebuntu ?10:13
yaccHmmm, how does one add defoma manually to Xorg? (I had to manually change my xorg.conf to support my touchscreen)10:13
Rutzth0r: even on 3GHz (one core) I disabled all themes and effect, I just like minimalistics...but with comfort10:14
cwilluth0r, ahem  (gconf)10:14
Rutzth0r: text files are no eeasier :P10:14
cwilluRutz, text files can be version controlled :p10:14
morbyt1Rutz; it depends... me likes the animated minimizing of windows so i find them faster when restoring... also moving windows around the screen is more fluent and not as "shaggy" as it is w/o compiz. but still its true: "less effects are the best effects :)"10:14
th0rRutz, I run the same way...I want the resources spent on MY tasks10:14
th0rcwillu, you are talking about gnome....we are talking xfce and enlightenment10:14
cwilluth0r, xfce uses gnome widgetry10:15
Rutzcwillu: meaning?10:15
th0rcwillu, I think it is the apps that may use gnome libs, xfce itself is independent if I am not mistaken10:15
Rutzth0r: if I install xubuntu, does it have kde/gnome applications?10:16
cwilluth0r, https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-devel/2006-September/020951.html10:16
morbyt1th0r: is there some composite manager which is slicker than compiz?10:16
th0rRutz, no need to install xubuntu...just install xfce4 from synaptic and then switch to it at the login screen. And yes, you can install gnome or kde apps via synaptic if you want them10:17
th0rRutz, there are some gnome apps I use (brasero). But those libs load when I need them and unload when the app closes10:18
Flannelth0r, Rutz, xubuntu-desktop10:18
th0rmorbyt1, not sure, I am not real impressed with invisible windows <smile>10:18
heavensrevengehello10:18
heavensrevengewhats the infobash equivalent in xchat??10:19
morbyt1:)10:19
heavensrevengei cant remember....10:19
cwilluth0r, quite handy when you're moving windows though :p10:19
th0rcwillu, I don't see why....I move the windows in xfce and enlightenment all the time and never needed to see through them10:20
RutzI meant installing xubuntu, does the xubuntu cd also have and use gnome/kde apps10:20
cwilluRutz, by default, x doesn't cache the contents of windows, so it you drag one window over top another, and then bring the back one back up front, it'll have to redraw the window.  The worst case is when you drag a window over and back, as you'll see it redraw a slice at a time10:20
th0rRutz, I don't think they are on the cd....but you can get them through synaptic10:20
suloanyone here has ubuntu on a mac?10:20
cwilluRutz, windows does cache the contents however, and so can just blit the old contents back over top.  any compositing manager will also gain the same benefit10:20
dpicFlannel: no, apt-get update doesn't return any errors10:21
arcskylegend2440: thanks10:21
heavensrevengewhat is the infobash command for xchat??10:21
Flanneldpic: Well, I'd say you're all fine.  I have no idea what's up with software sources though.10:21
cwilluth0r, it's not a debate, it _is_ useful for me, as you can see which other windows you may be obscuring, and see what's behind a window by just alt-clicking on it10:21
cwilluth0r, that it's not useful for you is a moot point :p10:21
Rutzcwillu: didn't quite understand what you are trying to say.10:22
cwilluRutz, are you running desktop effects == None?10:22
cwillu(in the appearence panel)10:22

Rutz(in ms)10:24
cwilluRutz, it's a subjective performance improvement10:24
Rutzcwillu: so?10:24
Flanneldpic: ACtually, shouldn't that be security.ubuntu.com?  That's probably what the GUI is looking for (and why its not checked when you look)10:24
th0rcwillu, it isn't subjective if you take alook at cpu load and memory usage10:24
cwilluRutz, seeing an application not updating it's screen after being obscured has a documented effect on the perceived performance :p10:24
mark_Hi. Can anyone tell me how to overcome the uselessness of Ekiga?10:24
cwilluth0r, which, graphics card memory and load? :p10:24

th0rcwillu, especially when enlightenment will do it for free10:26
magentarin my experience compiz performs really well, even on older machines... and it only uses system ressources while visual effects are active10:27
th0rRutz, if you really want to squeeze every bit of performance out of the computer, check out fluxbox or one of the other minimalist wm's10:27
mark_That's odd. I tried compiz and system resource usage shot up to 99% on my box10:27

cwillumark_, that means something is being done in software10:28

cwillumark_, no, graphics chipset10:28
Flanneldpic: Just for yucks.  See if software sources likes that (and if it does, file a bug against it, and show how you fixed it, even if it odesn't, probably worthwhile to file a bug)10:28

perfectorpulseaudio not working after kernel recompile. any idea??10:29
th0rmark_, gizmo is stock sip...so ekiga will work with it10:29

th0rmark_, try gizmoproject.com...I think that is it10:30
ue__I there are iptables, but I am interested if it supports ipfw10:30
legend2440dpic: i think this will fix it   comment out your line # 51  then sudo apt-get update    sudo apt-get upgrade       then try to check the box10:30
cwilluperfector, the generic kernel has optimizations enabled (it's not an 386 kernel, it's a modern-processor-optimizations-enabled kernel :p)10:31
perfectorcwillu, no thats all ok. any idea abt what modules pulseaudio requires10:31
perfector?10:31
magentarRutz, use xterm then, i think it'smore comparable to cmd.exe then konsole. but i think the difference is worth waiting 2 seconds ;)10:31
Flanneldpic: They probably can't, but the bug may still be find-able, and also if in a month someone else has the same issue, they'll find it, etc.10:31
Rutzmagentar: what difference is there? visual?10:31
cwilluperfector, investigate module-assistant (in the repository)10:31
perfectorcwillu, i used the ubuntu kernel sources though and my existing .config file10:31
dpicflannel: alrighty10:31
Flanneldpic: They'll ask for your sources.list, etc.  In theory its duplicatable.10:31
magentarwell konsole has many handy features, while cmd.exe has nearly none10:31
cwilluperfector, you're not gaining anything though10:31

moDumasslegend2440 no firefox works like a dream, i just cant go to localhost11:16
moDumassor localhost/wordpress/11:16
mark_Maybe I should check to see if any router type software has been installed on my system, snux11:16
JWDistroJockey, I was unaware that 8.04.1 was available?11:16
spi343in what file exactly i set permissions and ownership for devices when using udev? i tried in 40-permissions.rules and 40-basic-permissions.rules but with no effect11:16
moDumassthey jsut nver connect11:16
DistroJockeyJW, it is11:16
JWWhere can I find it? I don't see it on the Ubuntu website11:17
SNuxollmark_: firewall maybe...11:17
unopspi343, why do you want to change permissions for device?11:17
JWI need Ubuntu to be as stable as possible11:17
mark_I'm sure I didn't install a firewall, snux11:17
BlackCowwell thanks for trying to help me, im just going to try reinstalling everything from scratch, like apache and php11:17
SNuxollmark_: about the only thing I could see causing these issues, or you just have a broken install11:17
bazhangJW, latest is .111:17
DistroJockeyJW, you will probably get that one11:17
legend2440moDumass: any problems with sudo or opening  Admin programs like   update manager?11:17

ogzykooothor_, ok i am aware of it11:21
fdeSNuxoll: It's a dep of ubuntu-standard, which is just a meta-package... but he shouldn't remove it, it is what Ubuntu uses to configure firewall rules in scripts rather than iptables directly.11:21

SNuxollfde: I'm quite aware of what ufw is, and that it's part of standard11:22
spi343unop, i am doing just that, i belive in my case it would be: KERNEL=="tun", GROUP="uml-net", MODE="0660"11:22
bazhangk88, did you md5 the iso? also try re-burning at lower speed11:22
stnsls-Please can someone tell me the path of Python.h in Ubuntu ?11:22
SNuxollfde: I was asking if he had done anything with it, since it doesn't do anything by default11:22
stnsls-somewhere in /usr/include11:22
spi343unop, thing is it doesn't get applied i don't know where to set it11:22
moDumasslegend2440 direct internet connection is enabled11:22
spi343unop, from the README file in rules.d it says in 40-*11:22
spi343unop, like in 40-permissions.rule or in 40-basic-permissions-rules11:23
fdestnsls-: sudo aptitude install apt-file && apt-file update && apt-file search python.h11:23
moDumasslegend2440 and under advanced there is "localhost" "127.0.0.0/8" and "*.local"11:23
unopspi343, i am not sure KERNEL="tun" will fully match it -- look further down into the document, there are a couple of utilities (udevinfo particularly) that list the exact properties11:23
spi343unop, but sudo invoke-rc.d udev restart don't show changes to /dev/net/tun11:23
legend2440moDumass: anything uner Advanced Tab in that list box?11:23
stnsls-fde: Im not under Ubuntu :) I am developer and I want to check some include path11:24

ogzyfde, i know, just questining whether some compiled modules may have versions11:37
pputmanmark_, ekiga, is that a sip phone?11:38
fdeKousotu: did you restart Firefox? What does about:plugins have to say?11:38
mark_Yes11:38
pputmanmark_, fyi sip uses multiple ports, and at least one of them is randomly picked from a large range.11:38
bullgard4Does there exist in Linux a 'recfile' command? "recovers files from a hard disk drive that has defective sectors." I could not find it in Hardy.11:38
Kousotu2pcs, gimme a sec, I'll check11:38
mark_Then there's nothing I can do11:38
fdeogzy: I don't understand why you'd want to do that... it's pretty much irrelevant.11:38
mark_It's uselss11:38
mark_Useless11:38
pputmanmark_, not saying that, I'm just saying that there might be more than one port to consider.11:39
sir_H-A-L-P.  Where do I add resolutions greater than 800x600 for the standard driver?  (nVidia driver was a disaster -- not using)11:39
Kousotufde: where can I find about:plugins?11:39
fdemark_: man iptables ... you want to open the port Ekiga uses... to find that out... check Ekiga preferences. I really don't want to guide you through the steps to accomplish this though, tired.11:39
fdeKousotu: type it into the Firefox address box11:40
DistroJockeybullgard4, photorec (part of testdisk) is worth a look11:40
DillizarDistroJockey dude i do know how that! but i want more info isnt there a channel or smt11:40
fdemark_: On Ubuntu, ALL ports are closed by default, contrary to others saying no firewall is used.11:40
Kousotufde: and what am I looking for?11:40
fdeKousotu: Uhh, those plugins?11:40
mark_Is that why the stupid thing won't work, fde?11:40
Kousotufde: todem/wmp10/divx/quicktime11:41
ogzyfde, for example i have already compiled and installed my wireless driver, and someone came and wanted to see whether the driver is uptodate or not, he checked the latest tar.gz version and will need to check the current installed one right?11:41
fdemark_: Almost certainly... also, are you using a router? You need to enable port forwarding (aka, you need to tell the router that incoming on that port goes to your computer)11:41
Starnestommymark_: if a program needs to open ports, then it'll open those ports on its own unless there's a firewall rule keeping them from doing tjay11:41
Starnestommy*that11:41
fdeKousotu: Then you didn't install them, or you didn't restart Firefox...11:41
mark_I'm not using a router I'm just a normal computer user11:41

DistroJockeyDillizar, #ubuntu-mobile  maybe11:42
sir_ /msg ubuntu etiquette11:42
th0rfde, you said Ubuntu blocks all ports by default. My xubuntu install has no rules in iptables, which I believe means everything is open11:42
mark_I just think Ekiga is broken in Hardy11:42
mark_That's the only possible explanation11:42
ogzyfde, but i stil want to see my compiled drivers version11:42
Kousotumein11:42
fdeogzy: Out of tree drivers are an entirely different cattle of fish, it's up to whoever maintains those drivers to do versioning etc... try apt-cache show <module-for-driver> | grep Version11:42
Kousotuyou still floating around?11:43
Kousotumark: ekiga is fine, I use it often11:43
erUSULth0r: ubuntu by default has no open ports becouse nothing is listening on them (no service is enabled by default)11:43
ogzyfde apt-cache-show is for deb packages right not the ones compiled via make and then insmod11:43
mark_I bet you don't use it in Hardy running a non standard DE11:43

Kousotuballe: where did you get the theme?11:50
geirhaballe_: do you have an url to the theme?11:50

mark_YEah. Which is why I use Seamonkey11:51
balle_geirha: can i use compiz for ubuntu? trying now...11:51
fdeth0r: there is no option, anywhere, ubuntu doesn't even have a GUI firewall tool currently. (unless you count firestarter and friends...)11:51

ubottuHi! Welcome to #ubuntu!11:54
ExuroI've been working for hours trying to get my wireless card to work11:54
fdeExuro: what card?11:55
moDumasshey all, i uninstalled anonproxy, any idea how to fix my machine11:55
KousotuExuro: whhat card?11:55
Exuroand somehow I managed to completely kill the wlan0 device...11:55
balle_Geirha: aha! it's the visual part my labtop can't do, because no drivers fo rmy gfx card yet, not any that works anyway...11:55
Exurowhen I run ifconfig, it's not there anymore11:55
fdeExuro: what card?11:55
KousotuExuro: what network card are you usingf?11:55
pepe_urfde: like? ssh tectia doesn't work either11:55
legend2440moDumass: in terminal type   set | grep -i proxy      does it return anything?11:56
* fde wonders what tectia is11:56
balle_geirha: well, could you help me on the ATER theme?11:56
ExuroBCM4318 [AirForce One 54g] 802.11g Wireless LAN Controller11:56
KousotuExuro: who makes it?11:56
fdeExuro: lsmod | grep b43 return anything?11:56
pepe_urfde: its the proprietary client ssh.com provides for a lot of money11:57
geirhaballe_: I just tried it myself, and I got the same result as you ... didn't show up. Looking into it11:57
Kousotufde: do you have a link to the 64bit hardy cd iso?11:57
Exuronope, lsmod | grep b43 returns blank11:57
SNuxollI use PuTTY as a SSH client on Windows....11:57
SNuxollwhy spend a bunch of money on one?11:57
KousotuExuro: wh makes the card? I'm unfamiliar with it11:58
Kousotuwho*11:58
fdeSNuxoll: I wouldn't touch Windows, and if I had to, it'd have Cygwin on it.11:58
ExuroI actually got it working so that I could *see* our wireless network earlier, but then I couldn't connect so I tried some other stuff, and then wlan0 disappeared!11:58
balle_geirha: thx man i just noticed that i can select window borders just fine from the theme, but nothing else11:58
fdeSNuxoll: or at least Unix Tools for Windows.11:58

fdeKousotu: cdimage.ubuntu.com ... look around in releases etc11:59
Kousotufde: thanks11:59
AlmightyCthulhuSNuxoll!!! :)11:59
geirhaballe_: yes, I think that's what you have to do. The theme is only a metacity theme, and that will only change the borders, you need a gtk+/gnome-theme to change the "insides" of windows11:59
SNuxollAlmightyCthulhu!!! ???11:59

AlmightyCthulhuSNuxoll=Awesomeness12:02
fdeExuro: lsb_release -r12:02
AlmightyCthulhuthat's all12:02
balle_geirha: i'll just check it out anyways, i have to start reading those descriptions12:03
Exuroyeah, it's 8.0412:03
geirhaballe_: there are alot of nice gtk 2.x themes at gnome-look.org btw12:03
fdeExuro: cool... aptitude install b43-fwcutter ... if it's there, go to http://linuxwireless.org/en/users/Drivers/b43#devicefirmware ... follow the second grey box12:04
fdeExuro: The first one gets you b43-fwcutter, but aptitude installed that already  :)12:05

ExuroI don't know...12:07

TeiseiYeah ! I can browse for computers in my network ! I've been waiting for this fix for so long. (I'm using Intrepid Ibex ^^; )12:07
KousotuExuro: most likely a HAL is in the way12:08
fdeExuro: If it returns nothing, that's good  :)12:08
legend2440moDumass: in terminal type         unset http_proxy    then   set | grep -i proxy    does it still return that proxy stuff?12:08
k88Kousotu, i just wondered if there is any executable inside ubuntu install cdrom that i can run12:08
KousotuExuro: check syatem> administration > hardware drivers (or similar)12:08
fdeKousotu: He JUST said the result of that.12:08

k88wubi installs ubuntu in partition or inside windows ? :/12:09
Kousotuk88: in windows12:09
fdeExuro: Have you restarted since the interface went down? Maybe a reboot will stop the kernel from being confused.12:09
Kousotufde: no, he said the interface went away, not the same thing, at least how I see it12:10
Exuroif I click System->Administration->Hardware Drivers it lists "Broadcom B4 wireless driver" says it's "Enabled" but "Not In Use"12:10
Kousotumy laptop's went away untill I disabled the atheros HAL in gutsy12:11
ExuroI restarted several times12:11
Exurotried installing the drivers again12:11
KousotuExuro: try disabling it and restarting12:11
Exurobut then I realized that wlan0 had disappeared12:11
TeiseiHey. Can somebody tell why I get kernel panic and cpu failure when I enable Core multi-processing in BIOS ? I have dual core processor, but I'm running on single core mode. I'd like to use both cores :(12:11
fdeKousotu: Well, it likely went down because of some kernel conflict - whatever ssb_dma_translation is ... I'd like to see if restarting will make the kernel agree again  :)12:11
moDumasslegend2440 it does, this is what it returns12:11
moDumasssorry12:11
Exuroand after trying for a few hours to figure out how to add it again12:11

NillerzHello everyone13:24
hubuntuno geirha, but maybe ebox did... I installed it, gave me 1000 errors so I removed it.13:24
Bigmack83i got the PM. well my site will be a ful server with a pretty decent amount of traffick. how well does lamp hold up compared to installing mysql/php/apache independantly?13:24

kousotuthanks fde13:25
joaopintoBigmack83, lamp is mysql+php+apache13:25
kousotuI repartioned vist and it went nuts13:25
kousotuit keeps bsoding, I'm reinstaling my backup13:25
Exurooh13:25
larson9999kousotu, might be the nicest thing that's ever happened to you :)13:25
Bigmack83fde: Yea i know lamp is all those, i just didnt know if there would be any performance difference13:25
Exurohello13:25
fdekousotu: changing partition table on a live system?13:25
kousotufde: huh?13:26
joaopintoBigmack83, erm, performance differences between what ? different names for the same software group13:26
kousotufde: I used Gparted13:26
geirhahubuntu: ouch. And you don't see the admin group when you type "groups" as your user?13:26
Vegombreifde: dude gtk-gnutella seriously rocks dude ..its waaay better than limewire13:26
fdeBigmack83: you can't install 'lamp' (well, you probably can... but it'll be a meta package)13:26
hubuntuno geirha13:26
fdeVegombrei: :)13:26
s33nagainHello?13:26

kousotuubuntu*13:26
fdekousotu: did you umount everything first, or use a livecd?13:26
kousotufde: yes, and yes13:27
alraunekousotu: defragmented before13:27
alraunekousotu: defragmented before ?13:27
hubuntugeirha, I think ebox is really messy... It just does not work well under 8.04... what a pity13:27
larson9999while i haven't used vista more than a couple hours, historically it hasn't be too hard to make windows bsod after a partition.13:27
kousotualraune: and defrag on 500gb on a fresh vista install takes?13:28
ExuroI can't find the driver cd...13:28
Exuroshould I just reboot in windows and find it?13:28
geirhahubuntu: seems it has messed your system up quite a bit ... anyway, admin group has gid 113. So try recreating the group: addgroup --gid 113 admin13:28
Vegombreifde: it wont work .. says im firewalled or something13:28
Bigmack83ok cool. well im pretty new to using ubuntu/linux and especially a server setup. just didnt know if there was a difference. apparently not. thanks13:28
kousotuexruo: you still have a windows partion on the pc?13:28
fdegeirha: it'll be commented out in sudoers file... you mind showing him how to uncomment it in that file, or do you not know how?13:28
alraunekousotu: you had vista on this 500G and wanted to resize it for having space for linux ?13:28
kousotualraune: exactly13:29
fdeVegombrei: hmm... you should still be able to download from others?13:29
hubuntuThe GID 113 is already in use... I guess I will have to restate my vps (again...) and get a fresh start. It's hard to say it but hardy is too buggy for an LTS.13:29
kousotualraune: wanted to move the 200gb recovery/run partions to about 350 and 100 and and pt ubuntu on the rest13:29
alraunekousotu: as vista wa fresh installed, shoulddn't be much defragmented anyway13:29
kousotu(less space than 50gb though)13:29
Vegombreiit says im firewalled both tcp and udp13:30
Vegombreifde: it says im firewalled both tcp and udp13:30
hubuntufde, really just tell me the file I will make a backup and I can access directly as root so it won't get messed up13:30
reeseis there a good oss mixer, beside ossxmix?13:30
kousotualraune: it died on boot lol, so I'll defrag when it's istalled again and go fom there13:30
geirhahubuntu: what does this give: grep ':113:' /etc/group13:30
fdehubuntu: I warned you... /etc/sudoers13:30
alraunekousotu: if I tried that, I would first partition/format the disk....13:31
kousotualraune: xp freah is about 15% fragged13:31
hubuntugeirha, you are not going to believe this: clamav:x:113:13:31
hubuntuthanks fde13:31
kousotualraune: it's oem13:31
fdehubuntu: uncomment '%wheel' ... and edit /etc/groups and put yourself in the wheel group (append your username to the end of the line)13:31
Vegombreifde: but im actually not firewalled atall13:31
kousotuor believ me, that is wha I would have done13:31
kousotulol13:31
Xecuterhi! anyone here using ushare?13:31
alraunekousotu: ...so xp,vista and ubuntu  oohm oem...13:31
kousotualraune: my laptop (which I'm on atm) did that13:32
fdeVegombrei: yeah... I don't feel like messing with it right now, and it's not installed here... I use bittorrent these days... but you wanted something like limewire13:32

fdehubuntu: if you get confused... ASK13:32
Bigmack83anyone knoe of any good tutorials for setting up and tweaking an ubuntu server? firewalls, what apps i should have for a server and maybe how to set them up properly. I want to make sure i have everything i need when i set mine up and have it secure as possible13:32
Renucan anybody help me!i don t have sound13:32
alraunekousotu: so the problem u have is that you can't install vista on a smaller partit. then...13:33
kousoturenu: surround: turn it up13:33
fdehubuntu: by 'uncomment' I mean ONLY remove the '#' in the line that has '%wheel ALL=ALL (ALL)'13:33
Vegombreifde: yeah .. actually i wanted something i could use to download some mp3s ..you know of any other client that might work ?13:33
hubuntuno %wheel13:33
fdehubuntu: there is NOPASSWD also, but that is insecure13:33
hubuntuit seems ebox is been there13:33
geirhahubuntu: oops, I misread, it's 114 in my /etc/group ... but 113 is different too, I guess the gids aren't equal from system to system, even for system groups13:33
Renui can not hear on sites ,xmms,vlc,i sais that sound card is configure properly13:33
citizen42alphavego - try frostwire, if it hasn't already been suggested.13:33
kousotuVegombrei: frostwire13:33
citizen42alpha=13:34

joaopintoXiXaQ, sudo apt-get install package (it will only upgrade the packaged and related dependencies)13:36
hubuntuis an option in slicehost too, maybe i'll give it a shot13:36
XiXaQjoaopinto, then, apt-get install linux-generic?13:36

pulseezargood afternoon all, just a quick question: If I have two separate hard drives and set them both to mount at / will something screw up?13:41
suloi installed ubuntu on my macbook.. but everytime i boot i first get a lightblue screen for about a minute .. i dont know how i can get rid of it13:41
hubuntusulo DO you get into the system after that minute?13:42
suloyes .. after that minute grub starts and all goes its way13:42
s33nagai2pulseezar: depends... I don't know... what are on the drives?13:42
sulobut this 1 min waiing sucks ^^13:42
hubuntupulseezar, it depends on your configuration (raid) normally the system won't allow you to mount to devices in the same mount point (/ being a mount point and /anotherdrive being another mount point)13:43
vinshi, do you know how to have transparency of windows with fluxbox ? I have installed xcompmgr and transset, ti have activated composite in xorg.conf but I have transparency only on title bar, not on all the window.13:43

hubuntusulo then I would file a bug in launchpad.net and seek advice there...13:45

guidoHi guys, do you know how to restart nfs and xinetd services on ubuntu ?14:01
fdeExuro: Also, think about using Gmail... it'll import all pop accounts, and throw it through its own spam and custom filters14:01
ActionParsniplch: just install it then apt-get remove it14:01
lchI don't have the space to install it14:01
ActionParsniplch: or download the alternative cd14:01
geirhapulseezar: ok, then just "sudo mkdir /home/storage", update /etc/fstab, and then "sudo umount /users/local ; sudo mount /home/storage"14:01
Exurooh14:01
ExuroI use gmail too14:01
RainyLithuanianwhere can i get libtiff.s0.3?14:01
ActionParsnipKira: have you seen that link I sent you14:01
KiraActionParsnip: I was just being lazy. Of course I know it's possible to roll my own Tomcat 6 on Ubuntu.14:01
xnvguido: sudo /etc/init.d/nfs restart ?14:01
fdeExuro: Can then use IMAP, and keep everything forever in an organized way14:01
geirhapulseezar: btw, /media/storage is probably a better place to put it14:01
xnvguido: Likewise for xinetd?14:01
ExuroI use IMAP with Thunderbird14:01
ActionParsnipKira: I dont use it, Im just websearching14:02

voicegrrrlLooking for instructions on how to uninstall 2.6.24-2014:02
ActionParsnipExuro: id find out how thunderbird manages stuff so you can archive properly14:02
s33nagai2pulseezar: When Your done you can add a link to it in the Applications or System Menu.14:02
Exuroare Conduit and Evolution that much better?14:02
Exuroshould I just switch over?14:03
ActionParsnipvoicegrrrl: sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get upgrade14:03
pogaylch:  may be it's not possible, I lately used the minimal-CD's and there you can choose some not to install the desktop14:03
fdeExuro: Start throwing everything you can through gmail so you don't have to worry about it... settings > accounts "Get mail from other accounts" ... has to support POP though... then Gmail itself does IMAP14:03
ExuroI'm just using IMAP, so I won't loose any emails or anything14:03

Exurooh14:04
hotspothello14:05
voicegrrrlaction--thanks i will try it!14:05

ubottuAvoid your questions being followed by a trail of "Please, help me", "Can nobody help me?", "I really need this!", and so on. This just contributes to making the channel unreadable. If you are not answered, ask again later; but see also !repeat and !patience14:10
geirhapulseezar: "gksudo gedit /etc/fstab" is a typical way to edit it14:10
ApriliaI need messenger14:10
xnvguido: Synaptic will usually tell you what packages you have installed. If you want to look at services, you may have to install something like rcconf14:10

mcquaidis there a reason cat /proc/acpi/thermal_zone/THRM/temperature doesn't work? it always reports 40 regardless14:18
ikoniafde: try it, the applications won't work (he's using an external package) it wants the lib in /lib14:18
guidoBalian, however if it was a very standard font present in the early version, it seems a little bit strange that is not present in the updated version...14:18

cdj26_sorry then14:19
cdj26_s33nagia2: go to system > admin > hardware drivers14:19

krielOkay. In my travels, I accidentally borked up my perl. My brilliant solution was 'apt*get remove perl && apt*get install perl' (censored for noob protection.) This in turn uninstalled about half my software. Is there anyway to tell it to reinstall the default packages, without, well. Doing a reinstall?14:33
BalianI need Help with font!14:33
ndf...14:34

p4_xxxhi, i have a ubuntu server at home for file shares, im folowing a guide to set some rules with iptables, but im reading some setting for Network Manager in the same guide, can someone explain this because i dont understand this: this is what im reading: Configuration on startup14:45
p4_xxxWARNING: Iptables and NetworkManager seem to have a conflict. However NetworkManager is still in Beta. If you are concerned enough about security to isntall a firewall you might not want to trust NetworkManager to manage it yet. Also note NetworkManager and iptables have opposite aims. Iptables aims to keep any questionable network traffice out. NetworkManager aims to keep you connected at all times. Therefore if you want security all the time, run iptables at14:45
p4_xxxWARNING: If you use NetworkManager (installed by default on Feisty and later) these steps will leave you unable to use NetworkManager for the interfaces you modify. Please follow the steps in the next section instead.14:45

ndfOMG that's the third time i've been asked that14:49
ndfi'm not stupid14:49
ndflike i said, it's a problem with alsa-utils service that i started14:50
histofde: Its not that package I mentioned is not dependent on anything else I think thats jacked up.  You can then really bork your sound up by that package not being present.14:50
Lunenfeldhello, how can i start the speaker-applet in openbox which is started in the systray of gnome automatically?14:50
PiciBalian: Try doing: sudo dpkg-reconfigure locales14:50
rwycuffJennyG,broadcom chips are not supported much in linux ... so you may have to get the inf file from windows driver and then run it through ndiswrapper14:50
histondf: okay well I didn't know that its a problem with alsa-utils14:50
ndfi told you that to start off with14:51
fdehisto: You're really bad at explaining yourself  ;)   ALSA is built into the kernel... linux-sound-base is depended by ubuntu-standard I think14:51
JennyGrwycuff, so I've heard about broadcom :(14:51

itai-michaelsonafter the last update Gutsy suddenly asks me if i "really" want to delete files when i click delete, how do i stop that?15:17
geirharaw: that will make windows the first boot entry, and also the default15:17
fdegeirha: he doesn't even have to do that actually... but that'd work of course.15:17
rawgeirha, yes. I want it to be first option because am the only one at home who uses ubuntu.15:17
geirhafde: changing the default value breaks when a new kernel comes along, because then you need to shift it by 215:17

ubottuYou should avoid noisy away messages in a busy channel like #ubuntu, or other Ubuntu channels; it causes excessive scrolling which is unfair to new users. Use the command "/away <reason>" to set your client away silently.  See also «/msg ubottu Guidelines»16:00

Abe1i am having a trouble with my usb memory card reader... I tried to copy some files the first time it went well but the second time it told me read only system why???17:25
gfather<Gnea> i think ii can install it from admin17:25
JennyGManualOverDozer8, if you can't, I'm glad you've helped me this much, lol Atleast I wouldn't be the only one who couldn't figure it out17:26
Gneagfather: yes, please try that and see if it works that way17:26
alrauneAbel: automount ?17:26
gfather<Gnea> where i can find a log , to show u whats the error17:26
gyroscopeWindsurfer619, ok move your phpmyadmin directory to there17:26
ManualOverDozer8jennyG lol , i try my hardest.17:26
Gneagfather: open up a terminal and try to install it with apt-get17:26
td123Abe1: did you cut the files the second time, instead of copying?17:26
JennyGManualOverDozer8: Curse my luck, lol17:27
Abe1td123 no even if i try to delete a file i can't17:28
mbikerunop: why would I want to use prevu over going down the adding repositories path?17:28
bassinboywkwhat is the icon in the systray that allows for wireless network selection? It died and i need to restart it.17:28
td123Abe1: well then the usb drive is mounted as ro17:28
td123Abe1: umount, then mount it again as rw17:29
Abe1how to unmount and mount?17:29
Abe1td123 as root?17:29
unopmbiker, it's not advisable adding the intrepid binary repos to a hardy install - a mixed system like this could severly break things and you might not have ABI on hardy with a package built for intrepid17:29
mneptokbassinboywk: sudo killall NetworkManager && sudo NetworkManager &17:29
Abe1td123 how to mount as root?17:29
td123Abe1: make sure that there is no read-only switch on your flashcard, kind of like the read only pin on a floppy :P17:29
mbikerunop: that works17:30
Abe1td123 there isn't17:30
svhhow do i get rid of files in the trash that tell me i  don't have permission to trash them17:30
td123Abe1: then ya, umount and mount it (using sudo command)17:30
bassinboywkthanks mneptok17:30
unopsvh, sudo rm ~/.local/share/trash/filename17:30
Abe1td123 can u tell me how ? i never used it as command line17:31
unopsvh, actually.  sudo rm ~/.local/share/Trash/filename17:31
remoteCTR1any apache skill0rs arround? i wont get help in the apache channel17:31

mehul_yadavI can't seem to write to my ntfs partitions.17:31

mehul_yadav!ntfs17:32
ubottuTo view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions - For write access, see !NTFS-3g or !FUSE17:32
unopmbiker, is that something you are asking me?  or is that some message you are encountering?17:32
remoteCTR1anthony:well then here we go17:32
Johnnywhat do i need?17:32
anthonyremoteCTR1: Also, did you know that you seem to be joined twice?17:32
mbikerunop: it was a question prevu is asking Y/N to17:32
svhthank you17:32
Abe1td123 how to use mount?17:32
unopmbiker, hmm, i'm not sure - i would say no to this if this is the only package from intrepid that needs backporting17:33
ManualOverDozer8jennyG by the way what distro of linux ? hardy ?17:33
mehul_yadavThe enable write support for internal device is grayed out in NTFS config.  How do I enable it?17:33
JennyGManualOverDozer8: Yeah17:33

remoteCTR1i'd like to accomplish that a link that looks like http://somedomain:8080/dk looks like http://somedomain, so i implemeted modules mod_proxy_http and mod_proxy_html. the reverse proxy works just fine but whenever i click a link the :8080/dk is back17:33
ManualOverDozer8anyone know if feisty wifi drivers will work in hardy ?17:34
remoteCTR1anthony: that is because my pc at home is online too, i am aware of that, thanks17:34
ManualOverDozer8BCM431817:34
unopremoteCTR1, you probably need mod_rewrite there17:34
mbikerunop: if I understand the question... it is allowing apt to use a local repo versus a remote17:34
unopmbiker, i'd say it was local though i can't say for sure just from that one line.17:35
remoteCTR1unop: i had a view on that one but that does something different wich wont fit my purposes..17:35
mbikerunop:  deb file:/var/cache/prevu/hardy-debs ./ is the one below it17:35
unopmbiker, yea, it's a local repo then17:35
unopremoteCTR1, well, from what you are describing mod_rewrite seems to fit the job17:36
mbikerunop: so a Y would be ok then... going for it :)17:36
unopmbiker, ok :)17:36
remoteCTR1unop: there was a reason why it wouldnt work with that one, if i only could recall it:D gimme a sec17:36

mzuverinkwhere does xorg place the resolution ranges for displays?  I thought it use to be in the xorg.conf file, and that by running "dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg" you could set the upper and lower values for display, now in hardy it does not do that, the dpkg-reconfigure dialogue ends well before those options are offered, where are those options now offered?18:09
ikoniamzuverink: it's dynamic now, so it's stored in memory18:09
ikoniamzuverink: you can hardcode it into your xorg.conf18:09

I have found a few forum posts the people with the same problems but none of the solutions worked. Im not using Compiz. The only thing that works is setting "Option"TexturedVideo" "off"" in xorg.conf but then the movie get pixely instead. Does anyone know what might fix this ?19:28
ikoniawok: don't lie - it wasn't a mistake, you just wanted flash 10 and thought it would work19:28

soundrayw8tah: first make sure your package lists are up to date: 'sudo apt-get update'19:46
w8tahsoundray: done19:46
fistandandelusthat was actually very helpful thanks, now i have another problem though19:46
th0rw8tah, well, from the looks of it you need to upgrade the lib and then install the dev19:47
fistandandelusany resolution, except for the one its on fails, miserably i might add19:47
soundrayth0r: it seems to depend on the *older* lib, though19:47

soundrayDark_Shadow: no, but you can get FreeDOS or similar for running the manufacturer's DOS program.19:56
Ice_Weweduiu, I'm looking for a more permanent fix than adding lines to /etc/resolv.conf19:56

JockeoMy Centrino laptop with speedstep mostly runs at 40% of the speed even at high load. I want to runt at 100% all the time, and has enabled CPU frequency scaling. But for some reason, when I select full speed (1,87 GHz), it still runs at 40%, and the radiobutton I click on doesn't get selected. Someone has a suggestion?19:57
w8tahsoundray: changing mirrors didnt help19:57
th0rw8tah, but you might have to flush the cache first...dpkg can get funny like that I think19:57
Ice_Weweduiu, I know how to add lines to resolv.conf, however it comes with a warning that you should not edit the file directly as changes will be overwritten, I'm trying to edit using the resolvconf command so that when it does overwrite /etc/resolv.conf I get the *right* nameserver19:57
w8tahth0r: that will then break whatever package i installed19:57
JockeoNote however that it does switch between different speeds, so some kind of governing is working.19:58
th0rw8tah, might...but I found that risk overrated in my experience19:58
=== rambo3 is now known as joomla_user
w8tahth0r: how do i flush the cache?19:59
th0rw8tah, not sure...did it one time but asked here about how to do it <smile>19:59
duiuIce_Wewe: go to the terminal and do 'sudo vi /etc/resolv.conf' and then edit it, the should fix your overwrite error19:59
soundrayJockeo: try running burnP6 from the cpuburn package (read the warnings). If that brings up your CPU to 100%, then it's fine. If it doesn't, it's probably throttling due to overheating.19:59
th0rw8tah, I would give the uninistall a shot...worst case you end up right back here where you started19:59

Ice_Weweduiu, yeah, that's what I'm trying to do. You've been extremely helpful in discovering what isn't the problem, now, perhaps instead of suggesting I use DHCP we can find out how to throw the right arguments at resolvconf20:06

umanHi there everyone. IVe been having a problem with ubuntu 8.04 ever since I installed it. What happens is if im using a program that uses audio (for example vlc) and then want to have audio on another one (firefox, to watch online videos), I dont get sound on the second program... I usually get it to work after messing around and killing processes such as gnome-volume-manager, pulseaudio, mixer applet, etc. And sometimes that doesnt work and i have to close one20:06
umanof the applications that was using audio in order to get sound on the second one. Does anyone know wthe solution to this, and is this  a sort of widespread problem? THanks in advance.20:06
Ice_Wewekushal1, what's the ethernet card?20:06
Ice_Weweuman, use alsa instead of OSS20:06
Ice_Weweuman, err, configure your applications to use ALSA instead of ALSA's OSS emulation layer20:07

oliesoundray, ok, do you know where i can go to find help with this problem ?20:25

th0rhow do you disable autoupdate in hardy?20:26
AcidRainbut the system runs, and all of the ram is recognized.20:26
soundrayolie: I think you should ask in this channel. Do report your flickering problem first, because your X setup seems to be fine.20:26
ArielMTAcidRain: how exactly does memtest "crash"?20:26
AcidRainits running test 2 and then the comp just turns off. Vista will run fine for awhile (over 30 min) but it will do the same thing randomly20:27
soundrayth0r: System-Admin-Software Sources, third tab20:27
ArielMTsounds like heat to me, though a bad stick of ram could do the trick, too20:27
oliesoundray, I did and i got the response that i should try and setup my monitor correctly, well thanks anyway20:27
Ice_WeweGillpy_, no, 127.0.0.1 is not contained in any of those files20:27

trigpinwin_user,  whats wrong ?20:29
soundrayAcidRain: will it boot with just one?20:30
bigmamamonkguys what SMTP server would you recommend?20:30
AcidRainit will boot with both of them20:30
ArielMTAcidRain: what about only one of them?20:30
AcidRainyes20:30
soundrayAcidRain: if you can boot with just one of them, you can find out with memtest86 which one of the two is faulty20:30
Ice_WeweGillpy_, ok, well since the real nameserver is inserted before 127.0.0.1 name resolution works, that's all I care about for now20:30

I usually get it to work after messing around and killing processes such as gnome-volume-manager, pulseaudio, mixer applet, etc. And sometimes that doesnt work and i have to close one20:54

KinksAnon1935: you cannot directly change how grub looks unless that change is a side effect of enabling some option unless you change the grub source code to suit your needs and rebuild it, then install your custom version21:44
KinksAnon1935: something I'm not sure you're quite up to at this point21:45

Drk_Guy!envyng | DRebellion22:29
ubottuDRebellion: envyng is an updated version of the *UNSUPPORTED* envy package. It is now part of the ubuntu universe repository (envyng-gtk OR envyng-qt) we suggest you use envyng if every other (official/supported) method fails! it can have various results from works, to fails!!!  if you want the very latest drivers from the manufacturer you use them at your own risk22:29
Shujahdude you cant get a 720p video to play on a nvidia 8600 :|22:29

Johnnyhow do i get dyndns to let me ssh in?22:31

ikoniaJohnny: not an ubuntu issue22:31
DRebellionJohnny, forward port 22 to your router22:31

ikoniaJohnny: once dns is set up, and mapped to an ip - if you install the openssh-server package you can ssh in22:31

{buster}no more paying hunders for windows, related products, and crashes :)22:32

ubottuIMAP and POP are protocols for fetching email. The officially-supported server in Ubuntu is Dovecot (packages "dovecot-imapd" for IMAP, and "dovecot-pop3d" for POP) - See also !MailServer for information on the SMTP protocol23:31
trigpin!MailServer23:31
ubottuUbuntu supports the Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP) and provides mail server software of many kinds. You can install a basic email handling configuration with the "Mail server" task during installation, or with the "tasksel" command. See also https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MailServer and https://help.ubuntu.com/7.10/server/C/email-services.html23:31

R0b0t1If I try to install a emerald theme by using the "Open with", it doesn't seem to work, but when double clicking on it, it tries to open it in archive manager. Any idea how I could install a theme?23:33
cellofellowStavros: I wish I knew more, email servers are a PITA, but maybe you can find some how to's using Exim 4 or Postfix.23:34
BlaqlightR0b0t1: close the window, then reopen it, sometimes it won't show right away23:34
derrichok ... i guess i just need to set up alsa output in the configs for mplayer, vlc, amarok and firefox :|23:34
Daleusbye everyone23:34
BlaqlightR0b0t1: if that doesn't work, don;t click and drag, use "Import23:34
Daleusderrich23:34
Stavroscellofellow: i'm looking, but it looks like i have to change the config by hand quite a bit :/23:34
derrichkind of a pain in the neck, but as long as it gets the job done i guess23:34
Daleusyou can set alsa for everything in the ubuntu sound settings23:34
Stavroscellofellow: unfortunately gmail isn't good enough23:35
Daleussystem - preferences - sound23:35
derrichaah - ok23:35
DaleusI hae everything on alsa, so they all work! wahey!23:35
derrichsee, that was working previously as 'autodetect'23:35
derrichbut once i installed the aoss wrapper (for WoW + wine + teamspeak), autodetect no longer worked23:35
DaleusYeah, it 'used' to work :P23:35
derrichyeah, exactly23:35
DaleusYeah, My exact problem derrich23:35
cellofellowStavros: Yeah, I use Gmail for some stuff, and have Gmail as my SmartHost on my Exim installation. Annoyingly it rewrites the from: in my mail headers to only my email address.23:35
Daleusif I opened wow first23:35
Daleusno teamspeak sound23:35
derrichwelp, i already went and configured mplayer/vlc/amarok to use alsa23:36
derrichi wish i had known to just switch 'autodetect' to 'alsa' as a system-wide setting23:36
cellofellowStavros: but, with the configuration files, that's the only way to do it. As far as I know the only email server that uses GUI configs is Exchange and who wants to use that?23:36
Stavroscellofellow: i don't like how it adds the sender: address of the gmail account even when i use alternate addresses23:36
derrichthat would've saved some time in man pages23:36
Stavroscellofellow: not me :p23:36
derrichDaleus: and you use aoss for both WoW and teamspeak, right?23:36
Daleusteamspeak still messes up on mine though, what I did was 'sudo apt-get install alsa-oss' then go to the teamspeak run file and add "aoss" before the teamspeak command23:36
Stavroscellofellow: the problem with those tutorials is that you never know if they're up to date, and may end up with a broken installation23:37
Blaqlightif only crimsun were around, he'd be able to help more with audio related problems...23:37
derrichyeah, aoss is a wrapper for oss-only apps to use alsa's software mixing23:37
cellofellowStavros: if at first you don't succeed, try try again.23:37
derrichi know what the fix was, i just couldn't figure out why installing aoss broke the rest of the audio autodetection23:37
Daleusah, yeah.23:37
cellofellowDaleus: use padsp on a PulseAudio system, not aoss.23:37
eviscerethe Vista "Mojave Experiment" -- the outtakes apparently. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mtXRnel2GT823:38
DaleusI couldn't seem to get padsp to work with my mic23:38
cellofellowderrich: padsp is the wrapper for OSS apps using PulseAudio.23:38
derrichhmmm ... even after setting alsa from the sound prefs, amarok doesn't work if it's left to 'autodetect'23:38
Daleusit wouldn't pick it up23:38
cellofellowhmmm23:38
Blaqlighteviscere: please stay on topic, vista is certainly not on topic :P23:38

kindofabuzzi'm trying to ssh to my server.  worked fine last night.  I can ping the server and see the NFS share and use webmin, but cannot ssh to it.  i keep getting ssh: connect to host server1 port 22: Connection refused.  any ideas.  yes the port is open23:39
derrichoh well. i can manually tell all of the apps i use on a regular basis to use alsa, so i guess it's 'good enough'23:39

abadrIf I'm going to install, say, libxml from apt-get, how do I found out which exact version of libxml it would be installing?23:40
cellofellowStavros: It'd be better to find a good smarthost that doesn't rewrite headers, your ISPs maybe, because home servers are often blocked as an anti-spam measure.23:40

joshua24problem, ncls23:49
joshua24?23:49
derrichoh. heh23:49
derricha config setting to automatically forward X? so you don't have to use 'ssh -X' every time?23:50
joshua24ncls: googling may help... i cant help @ the moment i have to eat dinner23:50
BlaqlightI would think you could setup an alias for that...23:50
kindofabuzzderrich: like i'm already in ssh server1, let's say i want xterm all of the sudden from server1, instead of loffing out and running -X -I i just type xterm and there it pops up23:50
derrichoh23:51
derrichi don't know if you can do that if you've already started the ssh session without X forwarding23:51
albechanyone else experience that compiz take up more and more memory and at the end crash?23:51
kindofabuzzi think it has to do with what cellofellow said, like set the $DISPLAY in a config23:51
derrichbut like Blaqlight said, you can just create an alias to save yourself typing 'ssh -X' every time23:51
