| Tom_Davis | wish I could help more | 00:05 |
| pupuser10a382 | hm | 00:05 |
| pupuser10a382 | D3JAVU have you tried nero? | 00:05 |
| keithclark | stevenw9, yes, everything slows to a crawl. | 00:05 |
| liquid | Tom_Davis: Its fine | 00:06 |
| pupuser10a382 | or tried re-downloading the iso? | 00:06 |
| pupuser10a382 | could of been corrupted | 00:06 |
| pupuser10a382 | :Dn | 00:06 |
| stevenw9 | keithclark: Then this rules out your network adapter being the problem. Have you had this issue without your router? | 00:06 |
| Tom_Davis | d3 then just sudo md /mnt/iso then sudo mount -o loop isoname.iso /mnt/iso | 00:06 |
| Tom_Davis | err mkdir | 00:06 |
| Tom_Davis | not md | 00:06 |
| keithclark | stevenw9, I've never tried hooking the modem up direct before. | 00:06 |
| D3JAVU | i dont wont nero i wont now semple comand in terminal :) | 00:07 |
| mongolai | keithclark: that's tricky issue... you probably need to take that up with your ISP, but there is the linux kernel command sysctl that has many options regarding the operation of the linux kernel. networking is one of those... | 00:07 |
| stevenw9 | keithclark: You should. If you still have this issue, I advise talking to your ISP about getting a replacement modem. | 00:07 |
| Reign | My wlan0 won't show up in iwconfig. I've tried using ndiswrapper to no avail. Please help me with this | 00:07 |
| stevenw9 | keithclark: However if you DON'T have the issue, then we know it's a router issue. Thus you can come back here after that. | 00:07 |
| keithclark | stevenw9, or maybe this is an issue with throttling? Although I've limited the speed of the bittorrent client to something reasonable compared to my connection | 00:07 |
| stevenw9 | keithclark: It might be, it might not be. Hence why I suggest trying with your modem directly connected. | 00:08 |
| bzou | donc, meme pas unr tite info sur les branleurs qui nike les ssh mal configurés ? les LinuxCrackerws ? pas des RG ou tout bitin, juste l'envie de m'amuser. si ya des volontaires... | 00:08 |
| stevenw9 | keithclark: Also | 00:08 |
| stevenw9 | keithclark: Encryption settings may work on your torrent program. Comcast for example, cripples speeds if you torrent without encryption. | 00:08 |

| spence | Tom_Davis: that's possible, however I've been told it is possible that the data is still safe providing that I haven't used the swap space | 00:22 |

| spence | umount says it's busy | 00:50 |

| hotmonkeyluv | I have 3 lcd monitors, two which have vga, and one has dvi and vga. what combination of video cards will allow me to play games (WoW, CS:S, Nexuix, Tremulous, Alien Arena, Minesweeper, etc...) Is there a way to attach 2 monitors to one DVI output? I've heard of DVI-D or DVI-I and one of them is a dual link, does that mean that I can run 4 displays off of one dual dvi out card? I want this to work in windows and, more importantly, Linux | 00:50 |
| hotmonkeyluv | (preferably Ubuntu, but I'll use whatever) | 00:50 |
| spence | silly me, i had another nautilus open on my other desktop. thank you anders, Tom_Davis Davis | 00:51 |
| Tom_Davis | any time | 00:51 |
| curtis_Desktop | can i download updates from a laptop and burn them to a cd and install them in ubuntu? | 00:51 |
| anders_ | no worries spence | 00:51 |
| spence | Linux can be a pain at times, with external drives | 00:51 |
| filthpig | spence, so can windows ;) | 00:52 |
| msaul | I did the command lspci -v | less and saw the device listed | 00:52 |
| spence | my UNIX tutor tries to spin them in good ways. but the idea of say a file is transferred.. when in fact it might not be is flawed to me | 00:52 |
| spence | i'm used to just pulling it out when the transfer dialog is gone | 00:52 |
| msaul | The network controller for DWA 542 is Atheros , should I be trying out madwifi direction? | 00:53 |
| Tom_Davis | isnt atheros a ndiswrapper candidate? | 00:53 |
| kthef | spenc: you can go to a terminal window and type sync to sync the disks before you remove them | 00:54 |
| msaul | Do you have a link to a good ndiswrapper howto? | 00:54 |
| kitche | Tom_Davis: no it's more of a madwifi/ath5k candidate | 00:54 |
| kthef | spence: you shouldn't be yanking the drives out of a windoze box either....hehehehe | 00:54 |
| curtis_Desktop | when does digsby come out for linux? | 00:54 |
| msaul | From my reading, it seems that madwifi is the direction to take | 00:55 |
| spence | curtis_Desktop: i tried it on Windows. i didn't think it was all that fantastic personally, but i was missing Pidgin | 00:55 |
| msaul | There was mention also of madwifi-ng but didn't really know what that meant | 00:55 |
| curtis_Desktop | spence, you can install pidgin in windows | 00:55 |
| spence | oh yes, i meant Adium. freudian slip | 00:56 |
| spence | changed OS three times in a year | 00:56 |
| kitche | curtis_Desktop: ask the digsby developers when and you'll probably hear never | 00:56 |
| msaul | I did try from a HOWTO to install the madwifi for Atheros, but didn't work... | 00:56 |
| curtis_Desktop | spence, that is it... i change my os about 3 times in a week | 00:56 |
| yoyoned | curtis_Desktop: spence I think I average 3 times a month | 00:57 |
| msaul | One thing I noticed is that madwifi-tools were on repository, but needed madwifi-source as well, but couldn't obtain it... | 00:57 |

| kthef | ^Cheeky, see, you can delete the vm out of the console, but import it into another machine | 01:02 |
| stinkman | favro, server is freebsd, been untouched for months. this ubutnu is a clean install. | 01:02 |
| kthef | ^Cheeky, I think that is why you have to manually delete, in case you want to use it elsewhere | 01:03 |

| perillux | I want to put a small minimal windows installation onto a separate partition on this computer. What I'm wondering is.. could I possibly use an installation CD that was made for another computer on this computer? I'm thinking that CD will install video drivers and everything for that other comp.. would I still be able to at least use it so I can install the proper drivers, will this work at all?? | 01:06 |
| rainbowinfinity | i've tried installing and reinstalling java, but i'm never sure if it works or not...the test never works, but never says it didn't work either | 01:06 |
| stinkman | favro, added it to /hosts, no progress | 01:06 |
| danbh_intrepid | perillux: try #windows | 01:06 |
| Tom_Davis | perillux you will need either a retail or oem copy | 01:06 |
| jyoseph | anybody? experience w/ xmodmap? | 01:06 |
| * jyoseph sighs | 01:06 | |
| perillux | Tom_Davis: what is an oem copy? | 01:06 |
| favro | stinkman: you prob have to restart the network | 01:06 |
| joshual | hey folks can anyone tell me how to login to gnome as root? I want to use gparted to resize /home partition... and I can't if I'm logged into gnome as user, because I would be in the /home partition | 01:07 |
| favro | stinkman: sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart | 01:07 |
| Scunizi | perillux: is this for games or something else? | 01:07 |
| musikgoat | rainbowinfinity: one moment, checking something | 01:07 |
| darkhamm | danbh_intrepid: in "Places", i can't click right mouse button | 01:07 |
| Tom_Davis | one that a builder would include with a system, not a dell, ibm, everex, hp restore disk | 01:07 |
| stinkman | brb if no go | 01:07 |
| kitche | joshual: use gksu gparted to start gparted with root powers | 01:07 |
| perillux | Scunizi: probably will be used mostly for windows games | 01:07 |
| kthef | joshual, just go to terminal window and type sudo gparted | 01:07 |
| joshual | kitche: I would still be in /home partition | 01:07 |
| stinkman | haha, nothing restarted | 01:07 |
| danbh_intrepid | joshual: try booting into recovery mode | 01:07 |

| moobag | if i install the 8.10 release candidate, will i have to do a full re-install to get the full version or will it update to the full release? | 01:08 |
| kthef | joshual, boot from a live cd and then use gparted to do what you need | 01:08 |
| danbh_intrepid | darkhamm: I would locate the files, and then right click. Change the default that way | 01:09 |
| kitche | joshual: and what's your point since you can resize the partition all you want if your still inside the partition if you wanted to you could even delete partitions when your still in them I do it all the time | 01:09 |
| darkhamm | danbh_intrepid: i go in "places" , i click on "desktop" and it runs totem | 01:09 |
| joshual | thats a good idea | 01:09 |
| danbh_intrepid | !intrepid > moobag | 01:09 |
| ubottu | moobag, please see my private message | 01:09 |
| Scunizi | perillux: like Tom_Davis said.. to install you'll need a retail copy or oem copy (cheaper from places like tigerdirect). If you try to use one designed for a specific Mfgr. then you may be out of luck. Either way, once installed you won't have access to Ubuntu again until you fix Grub, the boot loader.. because windows will overwrite it. | 01:09 |
| joshual | kitche: NO you cannot resize the partition if its mounted | 01:09 |
| joshual | sheesh | 01:09 |
| kitche | joshual: I know that | 01:09 |
| hasanibrahim | hi: if pc lock (freezee) in ubuntu, what can i do | 01:09 |

| hasanibrahim | is there anything as ctrl alt delete | 01:09 |
| danbh_intrepid | joshual: you cant start x in recovery mode? maybe just run gdm? | 01:10 |
| danbh_intrepid | joshual: I dunno. I always just use the livecd | 01:10 |
| kitche | joshual: but technially when you gksu your not in /home since you gain root powers but why not just use a live cd | 01:10 |
| sistpoty | joshual: you sure can resize the partiation (as in partition table) but not the file system on top of it | 01:10 |
| darkhamm | danbh_intrepid: yes , it works, thank you! | 01:10 |
| pinehead | ls | 01:10 |
| perillux | Scunizi: I'm sure there's plenty of tutorials on how to do that...? Also, this comp originally had window but instead of a recovery CD the cheap manufacturers made a recovery partition, which I overwrote when installing ubuntu | 01:11 |
| kitche | I m a bit tired of people thinking you can't do certain stuff when you can | 01:11 |
| lunafreestate | any one have any luck using btpd | 01:11 |
| hasanibrahim | help pleae :( | 01:11 |
| DCPom | is there a point in installing ubuntu-desktop on Ubuntu server? | 01:11 |
| Scunizi | perillux: a good arguement for partimage.. it's like ghost.. it'll make a copy of the partition so you can put it back later. | 01:11 |
| musikgoat | rainbowinfinity: unfortunately I have the same problem as this person: https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+question/36489 which I just tried installing the java development kit as a test and that also didn't resolve the problem, but you don't have the same problem as me. try going to terminal and typing sudo apt-get install sun-java6-jdk | 01:11 |
| Scunizi | DCPom: only if you want a gui and then you might consider xubuntu instead. | 01:12 |
| perillux | Scunizi: wait.. are you saying that I can still access that windows recovery partition? | 01:12 |
| danbh_intrepid | kitche: the problem is if he logs in with gnome at all, /home has to be mounted, and files become in use. Thus, he can't easily unmount the partition. | 01:12 |

| Scunizi | perillux: no.. only if you imaged it with partimage | 01:12 |
| DCPom | Scunizi, so the lack of GUI is just for speed? | 01:12 |
| perillux | Scunizi: oh, I didn't | 01:12 |
| kitche | danbh_intrepid: umm what I umount /home all the time | 01:13 |
| Scunizi | DCPom: no.. most who work with server do it from terminal. They don't need a gui.. but some of us, me included. like to have it around | 01:13 |
| perillux | Scunizi: anyways, so do you think using the installation cd for that other laptop will work on this laptop? Also I don't intend to ever use that other laptop again so there shouldn't be any lagality problems or anything... right? not that I care, really. | 01:13 |
| curtis_Desktop | i have 2 gigs of music and i want to have it all open in one player so that i can go threw the songs and select the one that i want to listen to what is a good player that will do that? | 01:13 |
| DCPom | Scunizi, why do you recommend xubuntu over ubuntu? (i do run xub on my desktop partition) | 01:14 |
| rainbowinfinity | i think something is happening...hold on | 01:14 |
| danbh_intrepid | kitche: then maybe he he doesnt need to login as root. I dunno | 01:14 |
| Scunizi | perillux: if you received the install cd with the other laptop it might work .. it might not.. you won't know until you try. | 01:14 |
| sistpoty | dystopia: look for serial, and uncomment what you need to get a login shell on serial console login (ttyS0=first serial port ttyS1=second one) | 01:14 |
| Tom_Davis | perillux if that disk says anything about the manufacturer of the laptop on it, I would bet a dollar to a donut against it working | 01:14 |
| lunafreestate | I have a headless file server and I ma trying to set up a bit torrent client on it - any one have any luck doing this | 01:14 |
| dystopia | sistpoty: but i dont have inittab :S | 01:14 |
| Scunizi | DCPom: xubuntu is lighter weight.. fast and configurable.. but if you have resources and are use to ubuntu and gnome.. do that. | 01:14 |
| kitche | danbh_intrepid: all he needed was to use root shell since he would not be able to go back to the user shell until after the resize | 01:14 |
| sistpoty | dystopia: sure you have... /etc/inittab | 01:15 |
| perillux | Tom_Davis: ya, I think it says "toshiba" on it | 01:15 |
| sistpoty | ;) | 01:15 |
| Tom_Davis | perillux: not gonna happen | 01:15 |
| Scunizi | DCPom: sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop ... or ... sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop | 01:15 |
| Scunizi | DCPom: of course you could have both if you want :) | 01:15 |
| Tom_Davis | dcpom: xubuntu is much lighter on resources | 01:15 |
| dystopia | sistpoty: nope it isn't there | 01:15 |
| rainbowinfinity | nope...no luck | 01:15 |
| DCPom | Scunizi, i know the packages ;) i think i'm going to stick with the terminal for now. I was just curious if it was possible | 01:16 |
| sistpoty | dystopia: that's erm... pretty bad then... what ubuntu version are you using? | 01:16 |
| Scunizi | DCPom: np.. have fun | 01:16 |
| Tom_Davis | dcpom: I only use the server iso, and have run pretty much all the window managers at one time or another | 01:16 |
| cs_student | when trying to run frostwire I get OOPS, you don't seem to have a valid JRE. FrostWire works best with Sun JRE available at http://www.java.com | 01:16 |
| kitche | cs_student: did you install sun-java6-jre? | 01:17 |
| Tom_Davis | dcpom if you need a gui and wanna be really light about it, sudo apt-get install xserver-xorg xorg xdm fluxbox | 01:17 |
| cs_student | Yes | 01:17 |
| cs_student | java --version returns "java version "1.5.0" | 01:17 |
| cs_student | gij (GNU libgcj) version 4.2.4 (Ubuntu 4.2.4-1ubuntu3) | 01:17 |
| cs_student | " | 01:17 |
| kitche | cs_student: then you would need to run something like dpkg-configure java or something like that I don't know the exact syntax for the java vm switch command | 01:17 |
| DCPom | Tom_Davis, that's lighter than standard xub packages? | 01:17 |
| dystopia | sistpoty: intrepid | 01:18 |
| kitche | cs_student: well your using gij not sun java | 01:18 |
| sistpoty | dystopia: let me check in which package it *should* be | 01:18 |
| cs_student | how do I use sun java? | 01:18 |
| Tom_Davis | dcpom yup, the desktop metapackages load all sorts of extraneous crud | 01:18 |
| dystopia | sistpoty: im trying to set up client, not server | 01:18 |
| DCPom | Tom_Davis, cool, thanks for all the info | 01:19 |
| Tom_Davis | np | 01:19 |
| === cs_student is now known as poseidon | ||
| sistpoty | dystopia: still, I doubt that not having an inittab would be planned... give me a sec please | 01:19 |
| kitche | sistpoty: intrepid doesn't really need a inittab since it doesn't follow SysV really | 01:20 |
| === woody86_ is now known as woody86 | ||
| rainbowinfinity | <musikgoat>...if it helps any, the last thing in the terminal before it went back to me was that the java license had already been accepted | 01:20 |
| Tom_Davis | that is normal | 01:20 |
| musikgoat | rainbowinfinity: so its installed, if there were no errors reported, as you say, try closing FF and trying again | 01:20 |
| dystopia | sistpoty: all i want to do is talk to a computer over rs232... e.g. using minicomn.... | 01:21 |
| Tom_Davis | rainbowinfinity: or go to a website requiring java and firefox will fix you up | 01:21 |
| perillux | is there anything like VMware that doesn't require you to already have a copy of windows? | 01:21 |
| sistpoty | kitche: good hint (but it still is mainly sysv... at least I don't know counter-examples) | 01:21 |
| sistpoty | dystopia: do you have sysvinit installed? | 01:22 |
| mwalkerii | cool | 01:22 |
| mwalkerii | I just go IRC configed in Opera | 01:22 |
| mwalkerii | got* | 01:22 |
| sistpoty | dystopia: sorry, wrong hint, that's not hte package | 01:22 |
| QS | i have a small problem... i had problems with my sound card and ubuntu disabled the sound... now it's okay, but on the taskbar, the volume controller is muted, if i turn up the volume and restart the computer, it's muted again... how can i save the volume settings? | 01:22 |
| sistpoty | dystopia: upstart-compat-sysv ? | 01:23 |
| thiebaude | Tom_Davis:is that a normal fluxbox installation , I need to use the least system resources | 01:23 |
| rainbowinfinity | <musikgoat> no, it's still telling me it can't connect to server | 01:23 |
| dystopia | sistpoty: thats installed | 01:23 |
| Tom_Davis | thiebaude: yes, you need xserver-xorg xorg xdm and fluxbox for it to work | 01:24 |
| dystopia | sistpoty: but i dont want to run a server, i have an ubuntu machine running, i want to use it to log in on SRM console of Alpha | 01:24 |
| musikgoat | rainbowinfinity: do you have the java plugin? check in FF -> tools -> Addons -> plugins | 01:24 |
| === recon_etc is now known as recon | ||
| thiebaude | thanks for that command, Tom_Davis, just choose it at a new log-in? | 01:25 |
| musikgoat | rainbowinfinity: and also do you have gcj plugin? | 01:25 |
| Tom_Davis | thiebaude: yessir remember sudo | 01:25 |
| thiebaude | i sure will Tom_Davis | 01:25 |
| === Milos_ is now known as Milos | ||
| Tom_Davis | next caller :) | 01:25 |
| thiebaude | haha | 01:26 |
| Tom_Davis | hmm celeron 466 512M ram seems to like fluxbox just fine | 01:27 |
| [biabia] | who invented the first computer ever and when was it | 01:27 |
| rainbowinfinity | <musikgoat> I have the gcj plug in, but i can't find anything resembling a java plug in...where would i get that (sorry...REALLY new) | 01:27 |
| Stevenx | Hey guys, where can I find the setting for line spacing in Open Office 2.4? | 01:27 |
| Tom_Davis | charles babbage the analytical engine... | 01:27 |
| kthef | George Washington Carver, made it out of a peanut | 01:27 |
| Stevenx | I need it to be double-spaced. | 01:27 |
| kthef | didn't you see undercover brother? | 01:27 |
| sistpoty | dystopia: aha, seems like inittab is nowadays migrated to /etc/event.d... so I maybe creating a ttyS0 similar to tty0 might do the trikc? | 01:27 |
| Raylz | [biabia]: konrad zuse in germany :D | 01:27 |
| [biabia] | Raylz, thanks | 01:28 |
| Tom_Davis | rainbowinfinity: point firefox at a website that requires java, itll install the plugin | 01:28 |
| musikgoat | rainbowinfinity: you would have seen it in the same list if it was installed, head to the "Get add-ons" tab in that same area, and search for java, and try installing the java 1.5 version | 01:28 |
| woody86 | can anyone help me get my wireless card working? I can't use a lan cable, but I have another computer I can download things on, and a USB stick?? | 01:28 |
| mongolai | Tom_Davis: Ok. What is the procedure to get pulse audio to pipe sound to an arbitrary machine on the LAN for only the user intended --ie -- in a multi user configuration with the user in question logging in via a remote X session, while the local user remains local | 01:28 |
| Raylz | [biabia]: there were many parallel developers though | 01:28 |
| dystopia | sistpoty: i got ttyS0 | 01:28 |
| marc_ | I a a question, I have an Nvidia GeForce FX 5200 and I am trying to install the drivers from nvidia but it says I need to stop the x window how would I go about that? | 01:28 |
| kitche | rainbowinfinity: install sun-java6-plugin | 01:29 |
| musikgoat | marc_: why are you trying to install drivers from nvidia? | 01:29 |
| Raylz | marc_: sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop | 01:29 |
| Tom_Davis | sorry, pulseaudio is not in my arsenal of useless knowledge | 01:29 |
| kthef | marc_, sudo apt-get install envy | 01:29 |
| sistpoty | dystopia: oh, just read your last message now... you want to log in from your ubuntu box to an alpha via serial line=? | 01:29 |
| marc_ | because the ones I tried to use from the synaptics didnt work | 01:29 |
| trigpin | if i run sudo apt-get dist-upgrade | 01:29 |
| trigpin | will it update to beta ubuntu or official release ? | 01:29 |
| [biabia] | Raylz, like who else that you can think of | 01:29 |
| dystopia | sistpoty: yes | 01:29 |
| kthef | marc_, also sudo apt-get install nvidia-settings | 01:29 |
| musikgoat | marc_: follow kthef's advice | 01:29 |
| Raylz | marc_: manual instalations suck ;) | 01:29 |
| cs_student | when I type in java --version it gives me v 1.5.8 but with "gij (GNU libgcj) version 4.2.4 (Ubuntu 4.2.4-1ubuntu3)" even though I installed sun-java6-jre | 01:30 |
| cs_student | when I try to run frostwire I get "OOPS, you don't seem to have a valid JRE. FrostWire works best with Sun JRE available at http://www.java.com" | 01:30 |
| mongolai | Tom_Davis: I was sort of kidding when you said "Next caller :)" | 01:30 |
| kthef | marc_, after you install and reboot, you can go to terminal window and type sudo nvidia-settings and configure it how you want | 01:30 |
| kitche | trigpin: it will do nothing but update packages for the version of ubuntu your on | 01:30 |
| Raylz | [biabia]: the americans claimed to have invented the computer too | 01:30 |
| sistpoty | dystopia: if the alpha is offering a serial console, that would be just "screen /dev/ttyS0" (or ttyS1 depending where you connected it) | 01:30 |
| Tom_Davis | guys does ubuntu-alternatives still work? | 01:30 |
| hotmonkeyluv | I have 3 lcd monitors, two which have vga, and one has dvi and vga. what combination of video cards will allow me to play games (WoW, CS:S, Nexuix, Tremulous, Alien Arena, Minesweeper, etc...) Is there a way to attach 2 monitors to one DVI output? I've heard of DVI-D or DVI-I and one of them is a dual link, does that mean that I can run 4 displays off of one dual dvi out card? | 01:30 |
| marc_ | ok thankt kthef | 01:30 |
| Raylz | [biabia]: depends on how you define a computer^^ | 01:30 |
| trigpin | kitche, could i not just change my hardy source list to intrepid N | 01:30 |
| kthef | marc_, np | 01:31 |
| Raylz | [biabia]: we learned that zuse was the founder, first machine was called Z1 | 01:31 |
| kitche | trigpin: yes if you want to | 01:31 |
| woody86 | how can I change the screen resolution to what I need? | 01:31 |
| stage3 | woody86, system->preferences->screen resolution | 01:32 |
| [biabia] | raylz ok im reading the wiki on him | 01:32 |
| dystopia | sistpoty: well, its supposed to be ttyS0 but i should also et the speed correct, i think yo 9600 baud | 01:32 |
| woody86 | stage3- well my correct resolution isn't on the list | 01:32 |
| Tom_Davis | biabia: search charles babbage | 01:32 |
| Raylz | [biabia]: first machine was destroyed in the WW2 ;) | 01:32 |
| stage3 | woody86, what video card have you got? | 01:33 |
| favro | woody86: in terminal xrandr to find available sizes then xrandr -s size | 01:33 |
| liquid | Hello | 01:33 |
| Tom_Davis | re | 01:33 |
| woody86 | an MSI NX9600GT (nvidia) | 01:33 |
| [biabia] | raylz thanks! | 01:33 |
| sistpoty | dystopia: if you're lucky the kernel will do that for you... others than that I suggest looking at the screen manpage (there *is* an option, somwhere;)) | 01:33 |
| cs_student | Whats a good music manager for linux (like itunes)? | 01:33 |
| theDtTvB2 | I just downloaded Flash Player 10 .deb for Ubuntu 8.04+ Must I uninstall "flashplugin-nonfree" before installing the new "adobe-flashplugin?" | 01:33 |
| stage3 | woody86, did you install nvidia driver? | 01:33 |
| dystopia | sistpoty: which kernel? | 01:33 |
| Tom_Davis | flashplugin-nonfree downloads from adobe | 01:34 |
| woody86 | stage3- not yet, that was my other question | 01:34 |
| sistpoty | dystopia: the linux kernel... at least it always worked for me | 01:34 |
| liquid | When I go to places and network it tells me nautilus cant display networks, how would I go about fixing this | 01:34 |
| Raylz | cs_student: nothing beats amarok | 01:34 |
| Raylz | [biabia]: at least, thats what we learned at university ;) | 01:34 |
| woody86 | stage3- I can't get the wireless working on it | 01:34 |
| rainbowinfinity | i have installed the java 6 plug in...restarted my browser, gone to pogo, and it still says it can't connect to server | 01:34 |
| dystopia | sistpoty: well... i dont see why, cause im not running any OS on the alpha yet | 01:35 |
| theDtTvB2 | Tom_Davis, how do I get the latest version then? | 01:35 |
| stage3 | woody86, look at system -> administration->hardware Drivers | 01:35 |
| Tom_Davis | rainbowinfinity: can you get any website? | 01:35 |
| moobag | if i install the 8.10 release candidate, will i have to do a full re-install to get the full version or will it update to the full release | 01:35 |
| moobag | oops | 01:35 |
| musikgoat | rainbowinfinity: I've tried all the options i suggested, and cannot get it to run... i think the problem is with FF3 and Sun's version of java... If I leave GCJ enabled, the game attempts to start, but if I disable GCJ, i get the problem you have | 01:35 |
| Tom_Davis | theDtTvB2: it should give you the newest | 01:35 |
| moobag | aarrh im really stuck as to whether to install 64 or 32 :( | 01:35 |
| musikgoat | rainbowinfinity: and i have installed all the sun java plugins | 01:35 |
| rainbowinfinity | yeah.....but pretty much anything that requires a java applet doesn't work...the only online game site i've been able to really get to is runescape.com | 01:36 |
| musikgoat | rainbowinfinity: unfortunately, i don't have any other suggestions | 01:36 |
| Raylz | moobag: you just update and its fine | 01:36 |
| stage3 | woody86, in a console run lspci | 01:36 |
| sistpoty | dystopia: oh, then what exactly do you want to achieve? (I mean you can't connect to a "dead" box ;)) (back in 5 minutes, out for a cigarette) | 01:37 |
| theDtTvB2 | I still have Flash Player 9.... I typed "sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree" and it says that it is already the newest version. | 01:37 |
| stage3 | woody86, pasteebin it | 01:37 |
| Tom_Davis | bleh, an hour to install xubuntu-desktop | 01:37 |
| liquid | When I go to places and network it tells me nautilus cant display networks, how would I go about fixing this | 01:37 |
| ark3qqq | What's the right way to install KDE 4.1 on Hardy? | 01:37 |
| Raylz | ark3qqq: at the repos on kubuntu.org | 01:37 |
| n8tuser | liquid what are you expecting to display? | 01:38 |
| theDtTvB2 | Oh, looks like the deb file downloaded from adobe will do it... | 01:38 |
| theDtTvB2 | dpkg: yes, will remove flashplugin-nonfree in favour of adobe-flashplugin. | 01:38 |
| ark3qqq | Raylz: Ah, there seems to be a FAQ there too. Thanks. | 01:38 |
| liquid | n8tuser: Im expecting it to display windows networks, like it used too I dont know what happened | 01:39 |
| theDtTvB2 | Ok, thanks! | 01:39 |
| stage3 | woody if you not have allredy install pciutils, do: sudo apt-get install pciutils | 01:39 |
| theDtTvB2 | Got it to work. | 01:39 |
| n8tuser | liquid like it used to? you have a windows network ? | 01:39 |
| marc_ | ok so I guess it is working now but my resolution got worse. I had 800x600 before now I only have the option for 640x480 and 320x240 | 01:39 |
| stage3 | woody86, if you not have allredy install pciutils, do: sudo apt-get install pciutils | 01:39 |
| liquid | n8tuser: Yes kinda, it never did display the windows computer but when I went to it it would say would say windows network and now it says cant display that | 01:40 |
| marc_ | I know my monitor can handle over 2000xsomething | 01:40 |
| woody86 | stage3- well, the computer with the wrong resolution can't connect to the internet :( | 01:40 |
| n8tuser | liquid-> kinda? do you have windows host in your subnet? | 01:40 |
| liquid | n8tuser: No | 01:41 |
| liquid | n8tuser: How would I put a windows host in my subnet, is that why it couldnt connect | 01:41 |
| n8tuser | liquid then why expect a windows network if you dont have a host spewing out windows protocols? | 01:41 |

| Tom_Davis | isnt it casper? | 01:44 |
| ark3qqq | Raylz: Sweet! Thanks. | 01:44 |
| IsTI37 | Good night everyone... | 01:44 |
| liquid | n8tuser: I cant answer that, I have to read about this | 01:44 |
| Raylz | untermensch: what videocard have you got? | 01:44 |
| dystopia | sistpoty: simply there is no output, i am using on my motherboard an output which should give it a ttyS0 interface, and it is all found my BIOS, and enabled, yet there is no output from the alpha | 01:44 |
| n8tuser | liquid okay, do the tutorials and then come back anytime | 01:45 |
| z0r | morning all! So, you know how you can mount an alternate CD ISO and run the upgrade from there (cdupgrade), is there a way to do that with a live CD? hardy -> intrepid | 01:45 |
| IsTI37 | Someone here knows why my user cannot shutdown or reboot from the gui ? | 01:45 |
| stage3 | woody86, perhaps your wi-fi can work if you use the “ndiswrapper”. http://www.ubuntu-es.org/index.php?q=node/80991 | 01:45 |
| hwilde | Guest34885, click on it | 01:45 |
| Raylz | z0r: yes, add the cdrom sources in software sources | 01:45 |
| dystopia | sistpoty: besides this null modem cable, i could try a rs232 <-> rj45 too, or rs232 <-> lpt.. but i never used those.. | 01:45 |
| untermensch | Raylz: it's an intel | 01:45 |
| Tom_Davis | IsTI37: tried sudo shutdown -t now? | 01:45 |
| untermensch | Raylz: not sure what exact kind honestly. | 01:45 |
| Raylz | untermensch: intel are generally well supported | 01:45 |
| IsTI37 | I am shutting it down with sudo shutdown 0 usually | 01:46 |
| stage3 | woody86, if is necessary I will translate it | 01:46 |
| IsTI37 | or -r | 01:46 |
| WDC | Hey hey! In Bittorrent I am getting this error about every 8 seconds, but the download is generally unaffected. http://pastebin.ca/1236098 | 01:46 |

| Raylz | untermensch: gimme the output of lspci | grep VGA | 01:46 |
| untermensch | Raylz: i can't speak german tho... :( | 01:46 |
| Tom_Davis | can you sudo anything? possibly broke sudo? | 01:46 |
| liquid | n8tuser: Thanks always a big help :) | 01:46 |
| Raylz | untermensch: i thought because of your nick ;) | 01:46 |
| untermensch | Raylz: ok hang on.. my friend thought it'd be a good idea to check the cd for defects (even tho i already did that) | 01:46 |
| sistpoty | dystopia: sorry, I don't really understand... you connect your ubuntu box via null-modem cable to the alpha, and from which box do you want to use for which? | 01:46 |
| untermensch | Raylz: lol wow, no i speak some. but not that fluent. | 01:46 |
| n8tuser | liquid you're welcome, come back anytime and we can troubleshoot your network | 01:47 |
| dystopia | sistpoty: the alpha is ds10l i can only talk to it over rs232 so im using my ubuntu box to talk to it | 01:47 |

| sistpoty | dystopia: ok, so the alpha is the one which should provide a serial terminal, and the ubuntu box which you want to access the serial terminal? | 01:47 |

| trigpin | getting this error have no other package manger open http://pastebin.com/me71bb90 | 01:48 |
| sistpoty | dystopia: oh, ok... then you'd want to do screen /dev/ttyS0 on your ubuntu box | 01:48 |
| Raylz | untermensch: intel might be the best supported hardware on linux ;) | 01:49 |
| sistpoty | dystopia: which however doesn't mean that your alpha will also *provide* a serial terminal | 01:49 |
| musikgoat | trigpin: using sudo? | 01:49 |
| untermensch | Raylz: if that's the case i have bigger problems | 01:49 |
| sistpoty | dystopia: (and with an alpha I can't really help you, sorry) | 01:49 |
| trigpin | musikgoat, yes | 01:49 |
| Raylz | untermensch: burning errors are quite frequently | 01:49 |

| untermensch | Raylz: i've used the cd for other instalations | 01:50 |
| untermensch | Raylz: no, the livecd wont boot. | 01:50 |
| dystopia | sistpoty: thats true but i also have a ultra 5 which should also provide output | 01:50 |

| dystopia | sistpoty: nope | 01:51 |
| nico_ | hi, i have cloned the contents of a raid 5 array (mdadm) ( / and /home ) to a single hd. After changing grub settings and fstab, I can't boot on the single drive, i'm having a kernel panic, unable to mount root fs on unknown block / the kernel is still looking for /md0 / what should I do ? | 01:51 |
| musikgoat | trigpin: maybe an update manager or synaptic is hanging, check ps | 01:51 |
| sistpoty | dystopia: the only thing I could think of, would be that the ttyS0 is already used by providing a serial console... does dmesg shed any light on this? | 01:51 |
| n8tuser | dystopia-> does your alpha have another port so you can perhaps go from one port looped into the 2nd port? | 01:51 |
| dystopia | sistpoty: maybe i can use my paralel port... but i dont know what it must be set to in BIOS | 01:51 |

| untermensch | Raylz: no, should I? | 01:53 |
| n8tuser | dystopia-> yeah, on your alpha, you can loop port 1 to port 2 to just test if you can even log in via serial into itself | 01:54 |
| musikgoat | n8tuser: i think he was asking a question to the channel | 01:54 |
| musikgoat | imho | 01:54 |

| ubottu | Noez: Beryl has been merged with Compiz to form Compiz-Fusion. New Beryl installs are discouraged. See also !compiz | 02:23 |
| ThePandemic82 | um,,i was complimenting the room | 02:23 |
| bazhang | Noez, there is no beryl | 02:23 |
| ng0n | o good. | 02:23 |
| ng0n | sri | 02:23 |
| ThePandemic82 | lol | 02:23 |
| bazhang | Noez, it is compiz-fusion now | 02:23 |
| ng0n | 8-) | 02:23 |
| Noez | o.O | 02:23 |
| Noez | How long ago? | 02:23 |
| mongolai | Noez: it's also installed by default | 02:23 |
| ThePandemic82 | to be honest,,i tried fedora the other day..didnt like it | 02:23 |
| Noez | Rawr.. I don't think I have it | 02:23 |
| ng0n | it's ok. a bit more obscure. | 02:24 |
| Noez | Or..where..would I find it? | 02:24 |
| ThePandemic82 | takes too much work to get stuff to work correctly | 02:24 |
| pids | Anyone got a clue why all of the sudden my numeric pad keys cause x to restart? Nothing has chenged other then updates. | 02:24 |
| LjL | Noez: "apt-cache policy compiz" | 02:24 |
| ng0n | ubuntu is very easy. | 02:24 |
| bazhang | !ccsm | Noez | 02:24 |

| ThePandemic82 | right | 02:24 |
| ThePandemic82 | for sure | 02:24 |
| mongolai | pids: does your num-lock key stay on when gnome loads? | 02:24 |
| ThePandemic82 | I mean..linux IS linux | 02:24 |
| Noez | Thank you :3 | 02:24 |
| pids | mongolai, no | 02:24 |
| mongolai | pids: is it on when gnome is loaded? | 02:25 |
| ThePandemic82 | How many Ubuntu users are there worldwide?? | 02:25 |
| LjL | !offtopic | 02:25 |
| ubottu | #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome! | 02:25 |
| ThePandemic82 | any way to keep track? | 02:25 |
| Kr0ntab | 1270 in the room | 02:25 |
| Kr0ntab | hehe | 02:25 |
| pids | no, not by default. but if I press it is on. I still get the same behavior if its on or off. | 02:25 |
| runman | 4 ubuntu users here | 02:26 |
| pids | mongolai, however it does not cause the problem if I'm at login | 02:26 |
| supaplex_ | hi | 02:26 |
| ThePandemic82 | cool | 02:26 |
| ilovegnulinux | hi, i am not able to update to intrepid using update-manager. tried 'update-manager -d', but it doesn't show the new version :( help please.. | 02:26 |
| mongolai | pids: hmmm. what kind of keyboard do you have? is it a full keyboard, or an "international" keyboard, a laptop keyboard? | 02:26 |
| pids | laptop but full, has a separate keypad, 17" laptop | 02:27 |
| bazhang | ilovegnulinux, wait until oct 30; #ubuntu+1 for more | 02:27 |
| mongolai | pids: it seems to be a keymap setting somewhere... | 02:27 |
| hotmonkeyluv | i'm trying to transfer about 10 gb of music from one computer (wireless connenction) to another (wired to the wireless router) and I'm only getting about 2 mbps, I thought that the g standard wireless was 54mbps, and I know the wired is faster than that, so, what's up with the slow transfer | 02:27 |
| runman | ilovegnulinux: could be broken package, I just installed intrepid a couple of days and have been running updates regularly | 02:27 |
| pids | changing the keymapping in gnome-control has no effect | 02:27 |
| pids | and its all the numeric keys do the same thing. | 02:27 |
| mongolai | pids: I mean some underlying keymapping problem... | 02:28 |
| ng0n | hotmonkey: encryption, security | 02:28 |
| jxw002 | Just want to confirm if I want to compile a C++ sour code with a header file do I do following: g++ -Wall test.h test.c -o test | 02:28 |
| ilovegnulinux | thanks guys.. | 02:28 |
| ng0n | overhead | 02:28 |
| pids | mongolai, I agree but I cant find it. | 02:28 |
| pids | unless its a compviz one. | 02:28 |
| hotmonkeyluv | ng0n: would that really take that much % of the speed out? | 02:28 |
| LjL | jxw002: no, you don't. you use the #include instruction in the .c file. | 02:28 |
| [ipc]michael | so i upgraded to Intrepid last night, and spent today reinstalling Hardy. The nvidia issue is a show stopper. | 02:28 |
| ng0n | i don't know. guessing. | 02:28 |
| hotmonkeyluv | ng0n: I do have wpa2 | 02:28 |
| LjL | jxw002: also, if it's C++, the file shouldn't have a ".c" extension in the first place. | 02:28 |
| runman | hotmonkeyluv: low signal strenght means slower connection | 02:28 |
| mongolai | pids: do you have compiz enabled? | 02:28 |
| pids | mongolai, yes | 02:28 |
| ng0n | i run wpa2 with a 63 bit key | 02:29 |
| hotmonkeyluv | runman: i'm 1.5 feet away from my router | 02:29 |
| ng0n | it slows things. | 02:29 |
| Decepticon | what do i need to do to get youtube to work? | 02:29 |
| jxw002 | LjL: it's .C right? | 02:29 |
| pids | I looked through the bindings and cant find one that could cause the issue. | 02:29 |
| Decepticon | !youtube | 02:29 |
| ng0n | gotta run. | 02:29 |

| ryan5620 | i heard if ur testing things being to close to your router is bad | 02:29 |
| mongolai | pids: well, there *might* be some conflict there -- and please don't be too quick to dismiss that. Compiz key-clashings can be hard to track down | 02:29 |
| LjL | jxw002: i use .cpp | 02:29 |

| Kr0ntab | disk what? | 02:30 |
| Kr0ntab | ;) | 02:30 |
| stage3 | woody86, your MB is this http://www.newegg.com/Product/ProductReview.aspx?Item=N82E16813131289 ? | 02:30 |
| sonic_maelstrom_ | hard drive | 02:30 |
| pids | mongolai, I agree its really buggin me whenever I am typing along and go to enter an IP and x restarts. :) | 02:30 |
| ryan5620 | runman depends if u have to go through a bunch of walls that degrades signal strenght | 02:31 |
| mlins | Hi, my sound ceased to work after an update. My sound works on the LiveCD just fine (hardy). Is there anything I can gather from the LiveCD to help my installed version gain back sound? I compared the alsa-base and they're identical.. | 02:31 |
| Decepticon | how do i install flash on ubuntu | 02:31 |
| jxw002 | LjL: without including .h files, when I complie, i get undefine reference errors | 02:31 |
| mongolai | pids: is it one key in particular, just any keypad key, or is it some combination? | 02:31 |
| Decepticon | how do i install flash so it plays youtube with sound properly for firefox 3 and opera both | 02:31 |
| [ipc]michael | Decepticon, got to adobe.com/flash and download the installer | 02:31 |
| LjL | jxw002: but you DID put #include <filename> in the C++ file? | 02:31 |
| pids | mongolai, any key on the keypad. | 02:32 |
| jxw002 | LjL: yes | 02:32 |
| Decepticon | [ipc]michael are you serious? theres no native ubuntu way to do it | 02:32 |
| jxw002 | LjL: is my messaged sent to you red highlighted? | 02:32 |
| runman | correct, several things can affect signal, interferance, antennas not on same plane | 02:32 |
| pids | mongolai, do you know where does compviz keep its keybindings? | 02:32 |
| mongolai | pids: last "stupid" question, are you on a laptop/netbook computer? | 02:32 |
| LjL | jxw002: at the beginning of the file? without an extension, like C++ requires? with the < > included? | 02:32 |
| LjL | jxw002: no | 02:32 |
| jxw002 | LjL: how do I make it red highlighted like your messages appear on my screen | 02:33 |
| mongolai | pids: Usually in ~/.compiz/ | 02:33 |
| pids | mongolai, laptop, but its a full size keyboard with a separate numeric pad. | 02:33 |
| Tyrath | ok, what is the exact location of the wineHQ repository? - i can't find it anywhere | 02:33 |
| mongolai | pids: have you enabled the "Compiz Fusion Icon"? | 02:33 |
| LjL | jwx002: you don't, because i'm not using the same client as you are, and nothing is red highlighted here. however, including my nickname in the message definitely does the trick of notifying me about it. | 02:33 |
| stage3 | woody86, perhaps you should install x86 ubuntu version, there isn't different and is less headache than 64bit version | 02:33 |
| pids | mongolai, thats what I thought but its just session info. | 02:34 |
| jxw002 | LjL: i did do #include "myheader.h" at the beginning | 02:34 |
| sheetis | Anyone know why I wouldn't be able to talk to /dev/input/by-id/usb-Logitech_Logitech_USB_Keyboard-event-kbd or /dev/input/event2 (same device) from X with an application? It works from a console when X is not running, but what I am trying to get to work is ventriloctrl so that my push-to-talk works on ventrilo from wine when the window doesn't have focus. | 02:34 |
| sheetis | I have already set udev permissions | 02:34 |
| woody86 | stage3- this is my motherboard: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813131234 | 02:34 |
| mongolai | pids: that's not what I meant -- if you can switch back to the Metacity window manager, can you repeat your problem? | 02:34 |
| stage3 | woody86, 64 bit version didn't recognized some chipset | 02:34 |
| Tyrath | if I follow the web instructions all I get is OpenPGP not found | 02:35 |
| Tyrath | if I go to the community site It merely tells me how to add repositories | 02:35 |
| csilk | woody86, you having hard disk problems? | 02:35 |
| Tyrath | but it doesn't tell me where the wineHQ repository is | 02:35 |
| pids | mongolai, negative on the fusion icon and thats what I am going to try next. disabling compviz | 02:35 |
| jxw002 | LjL: so i have 3 files in total, A.cpp, A.h, B.cpp, B.cpp is the file i test A.cpp function | 02:35 |
| woody86 | csilk- nope | 02:35 |
| csilk | woody86, ok sorry, i saw on ASUS motherboard, didn't see your otiginal question so assumed ASUS mb sata related issues, never mind ;) | 02:36 |
| mongolai | pids: please restate your original problem again in case someone else has something else to add to our discussion. | 02:36 |
| woody86 | csilk- nope, but thank you :) | 02:36 |
| csilk | just been outside, my hands are freezing, typoing is a mission | 02:36 |
| pids | Anyone got a clue why all of the sudden my numeric pad keys cause x to restart? Nothing has changed other then updates. | 02:36 |
| bruenig | pids: it shouldn't do that | 02:37 |
| Tyrath | is this it: http://wine.sourceforge.net/apt binary ? | 02:37 |
| LjL | jxw002: then of course you should do gcc A.cpp B.cpp, with B.cpp including A.h | 02:37 |
| pids | bruenig, I know that :) | 02:37 |
| cat1205123 | pids: Is there a difference between when you have numlock on or not? | 02:37 |

| runman | thanks sistpoty | 02:45 |
| deniz_ | Qwell, sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg? | 02:45 |
| sistpoty | runman: for me, dpkg -S filename comes especially handy, to determine which package a file belongs to ;) | 02:45 |
| stage3 | woody86, if you internetconnection don't work, you won't install anythings | 02:46 |
| Qwell | deniz_: gives me no such option | 02:46 |
| runman | apt-get resolves dependencies, dpkg doesn't | 02:46 |
| deniz_ | Qwell, i think that worked only below ubuntu 8.04 im not sure tho, sry | 02:46 |
| woody86 | stage3- yeah, but I can download drivers and things on this computer and put them on that one if I can get my USB to work | 02:46 |
| sistpoty | runman: yes, apt(-get) is built on top of dpkg actually | 02:47 |
| csilk | woody86, assuming you can get all the dependencies on your usb stick | 02:47 |
| runman | thats what i'm reading, apt-get uses dpkg | 02:47 |

| woody86 | stage3- yep :) | 02:49 |
| Decepticon | whats the correct method to install flash on 8.10 | 02:50 |
| csilk | woody86, Check what dependencies the driver has and make sure they exist on the target machine. I had that problem a while ago, jsut moved into a new house, just upgraded to hardy, went to uni to get the grfx drivers, got home only to find out they had several dependencies. | 02:50 |

| stage3 | woody86, X is the partition number | 03:08 |
| stage3 | woody86, and /mnt/ubuntu_partition is a directory that you have to create | 03:08 |
| woody86 | stage3- crap, ok, is there an easy way to find the partition #? I can't remember what it was | 03:08 |

| woody86 | yeah, sda5 is my swap | 03:16 |

| stage3 | woody86, do this: sudo su - | 03:17 |
| woody86 | ok | 03:17 |
| kthef | vbabiy, why vi, have you ever used nano? | 03:18 |
| stage3 | woody86, then mkdir /mnt/ubuntu | 03:18 |
| kthef | vbabiy, much more user friendly | 03:18 |
| vbabiy | kthef: Yeah, I have been using vi for about 2 years now | 03:18 |
| vbabiy | and I love it | 03:18 |
| Tom_Davis | sudo mkdir /mnt/ubuntu | 03:18 |
| runman | I love vi also | 03:18 |
| runman | actually vim | 03:18 |
| woody86 | stage3- ok, it didn't give me any output | 03:18 |

| stage3 | woody86, yes it is ok | 03:19 |
| runman | you want to open all files in vim at the same time | 03:19 |
| woody86 | stage3- ok, again, no output | 03:19 |
| kthef | vbabiy, I think you can just grep blah | vi | 03:19 |
| woody86 | stage3- but it shows sda3 as mounted now on my desktop :) | 03:19 |
| stage3 | woody86, sudo su - is for be root user, tha will able you to run any command without sudo | 03:19 |
| woody86 | nice :) | 03:19 |
| pinehead | does bind look at resolv.conf? | 03:20 |
| stage3 | woody86, can you see with nautilus that partition? | 03:20 |
| vbabiy | kthef: I don't think that will work, well first I need to find a way for grep to only return file names | 03:20 |
| woody86 | stage3- yup :) | 03:20 |
| Ce18 | surabaya | 03:20 |
| stage3 | woody86, cp /etc/resolv.conf /mnt/ubuntu/etc/ | 03:21 |
| woody86 | stage3 it says "no such file or directory" | 03:21 |
| Tom_Davis | gotta mkdir /mnt/ubuntu/etc | 03:22 |
| stage3 | woody86, do: ls /etc/res* | 03:22 |
| woody86 | stage3 ok "update-libs.d | 03:23 |

| runman | grep -l returns file names | 03:24 |
| vbabiy | kthef: thanks so much | 03:24 |
| vbabiy | runman: yeah I got that | 03:24 |
| woody86 | stage3- yep | 03:24 |
| kthef | vbabiy, grep pattern files -l will return JUST the file names with that match | 03:24 |
| kthef | -l as in L | 03:24 |
| vbabiy | Yeah now I need to use something like awk to feed it in to vim | 03:25 |

| froduntu | it is just that I've wanted to be able to move processes to different konsole sessions or between terminals and I finally have the time to ask about it | 03:35 |
| kthef | vbabiy, make sure you have the right version of the router before you attempt...mine is an old version 2 | 03:36 |

| ballzee | can you make a bz2 into a .deb ? | 03:37 |
| kthef | KillerOrca, once you set it up as a bridge, it takes on an IP from a main router and kind of loses its identity | 03:38 |

| tesseract85 | yes | 03:39 |
| tesseract85 | and wired | 03:39 |
| kthef | KillerOrca, I think that once you set it as a wireless bridge, it loses its normal router functions. | 03:39 |
| tesseract85 | i had ubuntustudio installed then i installed ubuntu base | 03:39 |

| DigitalFiz | is there a way via cli to see what version of ubuntu is installed? | 03:44 |

| Smegzor | I have a problem with grub. I have two partitions (Fedora and Ubuntu). Both installed grub and for ages only the Ubuntu grub booted which was fine. Recently they somehow changed so that now only the Fedora grub boots. I want to format the Fedora partition, but I'm worried that I will make my computer unbootable. How do I tell it which Grub to use? If I can get it booting Ubuntu's grub again, I can probably format Fedora safely. | 03:52 |

| afkeane95 | is this aim? | 03:53 |
| KillerOrca | kthef: on my machine or the router or both? | 03:53 |
| kthef | KillerOrca, the router | 03:53 |
| kthef | KillerOrca, the bridge to be more specific | 03:54 |
| kthef | KillerOrca, you may lose that functionality after you make it a bridge | 03:54 |
| izinucs | When I use sudo with anything... before the password entry I get "unable to resolve host laptop".. how do I fix this..? | 03:54 |
| KillerOrca | kthef: no that was the router not bridge that I nmaped | 03:54 |
| kthef | izap, fixt your hosts file | 03:54 |

| kthef | KillerOrca, no, I think ssh server doesn't work when you put it in bridge mode | 03:56 |

| kthef | KillerOrca, you talking about the bridge? it doesn't have a monitor? | 03:57 |
| KillerOrca | kthef: the bridge is just the modofied router, I don't want my ubuntu box to have a monitor, before I sshed in and did commands | 03:58 |
| kthef | KillerOrca, oh, you trying to ssh into the UBUNTU box? or the ROUTER? | 03:59 |
| kthef | KillerOrca, I guess I didn't understand you | 03:59 |
| izinucs | kthef, ok.. found and done.. now don't I have to restart the network.. something like sudo /etc/init.d/network restart or something similar? | 03:59 |
| kthef | izinucs, no, it will work without rebooting | 03:59 |
| kthef | first line should be 127.0.0.1 localhost | 03:59 |

| kthef | KillerOrca, can you do: ssh yourusername@localhost ? | 04:07 |
| woody86 | I did | 04:07 |
| kthef | KillerOrca, from that same machine? | 04:08 |
| KillerOrca | kthef: I can | 04:08 |
| kthef | KillerOrca, what are you trying to do? ssh from a windoze box to this ubuntu box? | 04:09 |
| woody86 | stage3- I did include the echo | 04:09 |
| stage3 | woody86, or this: echo nameserver 192.168.1.254 > /mnt/ubuntu/etc/resolv.conf | 04:09 |
| KillerOrca | kthef: yes, the goal is to have the ubuntu box stream media to my 360 and I not have to have a monitor attached to it by sshing in to run any commands I need | 04:10 |

| KillerOrca | kthef: somehow I am using the wrong ip as far as I can tell | 04:12 |
| woody86 | stage3- ok, that one went through :) | 04:12 |
| tyler_wylie | I do have to give props to the Ubuntu team for 8.10, using RC and it looks to be a solid release. It probably won't replace Fedora as my primary OS, but I think kudos is in order. I'm definitely impressed. | 04:12 |
| stage3 | woody86, try again: apt-get update | 04:12 |
| kthef | KillerOrca, go to terminal prompt on the ubuntu machine and type: ifconfig and see what IP it is using | 04:12 |
| juniecho | i ensured ALSA is selected, i think ubuntu recognizes my sound card but all i get is just beep sound | 04:12 |
| stage3 | woody86, in the chroot enviroment | 04:12 |

| pjz | it doesn't seem to be in my xorg.conf anymore | 04:19 |
| Gnea | juniecho: that's okay, there's a first time for everything :) are you familiar with other linux distributions or are you new to linux in general? | 04:20 |
| izinucs | N0nam3, check the hardware manager under System/Admin and see if the drivers are listed there. | 04:20 |
| hardcore | izinucs, what option? do ya know? | 04:20 |
| stage3 | woody86, it complete the update? | 04:20 |
| izinucs | hardcore, hang on.. I'll look here.. | 04:20 |
| N0nam3 | izinucs: ok.. thanks | 04:20 |
| juniecho | i'm new to linux in general. | 04:20 |
| woody86 | stage3- no, it gave me the same errors | 04:20 |
| juniecho | so i downloaded HD Audio driver from realtek website, it has NO executable file (like .exe) or | 04:20 |
| Gnea | juniecho: okay - then i'll go into ultra-patient mode (warning: if i break, i'll say something) | 04:21 |
| juniecho | .deb package so i can just double-click and install | 04:21 |
| stage3 | woody86, the error is only some specific repository? | 04:21 |
| juniecho | thanks gnea | 04:21 |
| stage3 | woody86, coul you pastebin it' | 04:21 |
| stage3 | woody86, could you pastebin it ? | 04:21 |
| woody86 | stage3- restricted, multiverse, universe, main, it looks like all of them | 04:21 |
| izinucs | hardcore, catagory Desktop > Desktop Cube > Appearance | 04:22 |
| Gnea | juniecho: okay, first things first: don't download anything off of their webpage. with ubuntu, just about everything is available in the distribution itself - very rarely should you ever need to resort to the manufacturer site - reason being, is that their source is usually outdated pretty quickly | 04:22 |
| hardcore | izinucs, thanks man | 04:22 |
| N0nam3 | izinucs: did you mean "Hardware Drivers"? Yes I see them listed when booted into the livecd but not when booted normal. | 04:22 |
| juniecho | oops... yeah, i didn't install it, but just unpacked it so it would have no impact on system. | 04:23 |

| izinucs | N0nam3, yes.. hardware drivers.. sorry I don't know how to get them back.. | 04:23 |
| izinucs | hardcore, I think that's it. | 04:23 |
| woody86 | stage3- ping worked | 04:23 |
| Gnea | juniecho: therefore, i'm going to get you acquainted with some simple tools to get the problem solved and help you better familiarize yourself with ubuntu | 04:23 |
| juniecho | all right thanks... so what's the first step? | 04:24 |
| Gnea | juniecho: heh, that's fine - but don't delete it yet, it's good that you didn't try to install it yet | 04:24 |
| juniecho | yeah it had some 'install' file, but it did NOTHING so what a relief. | 04:24 |
| Gnea | juniecho: first step is to open up a commandline terminal. Applications->Accessories->Terminal | 04:24 |
| juniecho | i already opened one | 04:25 |

| bob_ | oh, i have that izinucs. | 04:31 |
| juniecho | that's the result, oh that was the easiest way to upload pastebin | 04:31 |
| bob_ | izinucs: i'll check that one out. | 04:31 |
| izinucs | bob_, turn off anit-aliasing and see what happens | 04:32 |
| === droberts is now known as Ademan | ||
| juniecho | in the past i MANUALLY copy-pasted all the messages into pastebin, what a waste of time :) | 04:32 |
| izinucs | juniecho, you using pastebinit? :) quite a time saver.. | 04:33 |
| bob_ | thanks izinucs! | 04:33 |
| N0nam3 | juniecho: so all he had to do was do that command and click the link and it automatically uploaded the txt output? | 04:33 |
| Gnuyen | anyone know how to disable fsck on boot? | 04:33 |
| izinucs | bob_, I hope it works! | 04:33 |
| === Ademan is now known as Ademan[not_home] | ||
| juniecho | yea gnea told me to install pastebinit (...) | 04:33 |
| N0nam3 | nice | 04:33 |
| bullgard4 | ThePandemic82: First run sudo hdparm -tT /dev/sda to see if the values are correct. | 04:33 |
| juniecho | actually i've used pastebin several times and this is the sweetest. | 04:33 |
| csilk | Gnuyen, it should only happen every 30 boots or so | 04:34 |
| N0nam3 | I'm watching to see If I can learn something | 04:34 |
| ThePandemic82 | ok | 04:34 |
| Gnuyen | csilk: I know, but because I have encrypted partitions it fails and stops the boot on my server | 04:34 |
| woody86 | stage3- ok, I'm back | 04:34 |
| stage3 | woody86, ok | 04:34 |
| juniecho | can't wait to watch some AVGN videos when I get the sound card working :) | 04:34 |
| juniecho | ... | 04:35 |
| hardcore | i just discovered somethin crazy | 04:35 |
| bullgard4 | Gnuyen: A bad idea. | 04:35 |
| csilk | Gnuyen, ahh rite, I'm pretty sure fsck has some option like "still boot on fail" not sure how to do it though | 04:35 |
| izinucs | hardcore, ? | 04:35 |
| hardcore | you can get the view of inside the cube | 04:35 |
| N0nam3 | juniecho: are you booted into live cd or already installed and on live system? | 04:35 |

| izinucs | hardcore, and you can put "gears" in there too! | 04:35 |
| juniecho | N0nam3: completely installed ubuntu 8.04 and fully updated the system | 04:35 |
| stage3 | woody86, I haven't understand what is happening yet | 04:35 |
| hardcore | i don't like gears | 04:35 |
| N0nam3 | ahh.. ok | 04:35 |

| woody86 | stage3- ok | 04:37 |
| stage3 | woody86, in the chroot enviroment | 04:37 |
| Gnea | juniecho: do you get anything from this command? cat /proc/asound/cards | 04:37 |
| juniecho | had to install fwcutter and wait through all the update process... anyway hmm | 04:37 |
| Smegzor | I have two distros in two partitions and I need to change the partition labels so that the / label is changed from one to the other partition. How do I do this? Anyone? | 04:37 |
| izinucs | hardcore, there's a setting in there where you can point to a graphic/photo you have. | 04:37 |
| woody86 | stage3- ok, I did | 04:37 |
| stage3 | woody86, cou you copy here? | 04:37 |

| izinucs | hardcore, not sure I haven't done it in a year | 04:38 |
| bullgard4 | ThePandemic82: The Timing buffered disk reads is not super but you can live with it. So the basic function is provided. You will need to describe your problem more exactly. | 04:38 |

| ezzieyguywuf | is it better to do a fresh install of ibex or will an upgrade from a fresh install of hardy be the same? i just fresh installed hardy before i realize that theres 6 days left till ibex. i don't really want to download a whole new iso etc... if it would be the same as upgrading | 04:39 |
| Gnuyen | so anyone know how to disable single user mode boot when fsck fails? | 04:39 |
| ThePandemic82 | Well, I was copying data from my home directory to my videos directory. The data size was around 2gb. The copy rate was around 4.4mb/s | 04:39 |
| juniecho | yes they're max volume | 04:39 |
| ThePandemic82 | is there anyway I can improve performance? | 04:39 |
| Gnea | okay, now try this: cat /dev/urandom > /dev/dsp | 04:40 |
| type_t | Smegzor grub /dev/hde ... then update-grub and then pico /boot/grub.menu.lst and .. set the root=/dev/yournew root for that boot session ... | 04:40 |
| Gnea | should hear static | 04:40 |
| rww | ezzieyguywuf: I'd recommend doing a fresh install of Ibex. Theoretically, though, there won't be too much difference. | 04:40 |
| ezzieyguywuf | ThePandemic: they're both local? i.e. neither of those directories are on external drives? | 04:40 |
| Smegzor | type_t: thanks | 04:40 |
| ThePandemic82 | they are local | 04:40 |
| ThePandemic82 | nope | 04:40 |
| ezzieyguywuf | rww: thanks for your imput | 04:40 |

| mbrigdan | izinucs: yes, i'll try what biniarykungfu suggested | 05:13 |
| juniecho | hi, i'm back | 05:13 |
| juniecho | the sound works!!!!! yeah!! | 05:13 |
| izinucs | mbrigdan, k.. I don't know much about the 64 bit version except it's sometimes hard to get 32 bit stuff working. | 05:14 |
| kilowhisky | hello anyone | 05:14 |
| stage3 | woody86, try with: ifdown an next ifup | 05:14 |
| izinucs | !ask | kilowhisky | 05:14 |
| ubottu | kilowhisky: 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. :-) | 05:14 |
| woody86 | stage3- ok, well that's not good, I tried to close and then reopen the internet connection on the live cd, and when I tried to reconnect, it disconnected my other computer from the network as well | 05:14 |
| juniecho | gnea, izinucs, you are awesome | 05:14 |
| stage3 | woody86, the sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart | 05:15 |
| izinucs | juniecho, now you gotta pass the help along.. maybe write up a how to and post it to the forums. | 05:15 |
| stage3 | I forget the sudo command in the live cd | 05:15 |
| kilowhisky | i wish to setup an irc server (vps - hardy heron installed), but i do not have any in-depth knowledge. i've read a tutorial up on ubuntu wiki, but i'm looking for something more thorough | 05:15 |
| izinucs | stage3, you don't need it. | 05:15 |
| binarykungfu | I'm running 64bit | 05:15 |
| juniecho | now i have the sound, well, the mute button is still red even when it is unmuted, but not a big deal i think | 05:16 |
| woody86 | stage3- still same result with sudo | 05:16 |
| stage3 | izinucs, thanks | 05:16 |
| Adremelech|Lapto | kilowhisky: what do you need to know? | 05:16 |
| izinucs | stage3, np | 05:16 |
| === Adremelech|Lapto is now known as Adremelech | ||
| juniecho | thanks anyway, wow this is fantastic, hmm i have one more question: how do i auto-mount a volume? | 05:16 |
| kilowhisky | from the scratch.. T_T | 05:16 |
| stage3 | woody86, try to see the icon on the panel | 05:16 |
| Adremelech | kilowhisky: can i pm? | 05:17 |
| kilowhisky | i was hoping to find a lengthy tutorial but none of them were based on 8.04 | 05:17 |
| kilowhisky | please, thank you | 05:17 |
| juniecho | here is my configuration, [vista partition][personal files][ubuntu][swap partition] | 05:17 |
| stage3 | woody86, it should reinit the conexion | 05:17 |
| juniecho | so now i have to manually mount the personal files partition every time i boot, can it be done automatically? | 05:17 |
| Gnea | juniecho: cheers :) | 05:17 |
| woody86 | stage3- ok, I had to put my password back in, but it worked | 05:18 |
| Gnea | juniecho: hrm... usually when you plug something in, it will either automount or show up in Places->somewhere | 05:18 |
| stage3 | woody86, do: ping -c 4 www.google.com | 05:18 |
| woody86 | stage3- internet's working, too | 05:18 |
| Gnea | juniecho: other partitions usually show up in the same place | 05:18 |
| stage3 | woody86, do: route | 05:18 |
| stage3 | woody86, and pastebin it | 05:19 |
| juniecho | gnea: i know, but it is a local partition, not a removable usb hard drive... but it does not mount until i click on locations -> 111.7GB Media | 05:19 |
| stage3 | woody86, or try to do ping -c 4 www.google.com from chroot enviroment | 05:19 |
| juniecho | actually something weird happened: when i first mounted this volume, it asked me for my authorization or something, mentioning some policy restrictions. | 05:20 |
| mbrigdan | biniarykungfu: Thanks for that post, but it seems that it can't find libglib1.2, I've checked synaptic, and the package gives me an error about not actually existing or something... | 05:20 |
| woody86 | paste.ubuntu.com/62347/ | 05:20 |
| Gnea | juniecho: you can put an entry in /etc/fstab for it | 05:22 |
| Gnea | !fstab | juniecho | 05:22 |
| ubottu | juniecho: The /etc/fstab file indicates how drive partitions are to be used or otherwise integrated into the file system. See http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/fstab.html and !Partitions | 05:22 |
| stage3 | woody86, work ping command into the chroot enviroment? | 05:22 |
| juniecho | fstab? oh yeah... | 05:22 |
| Gnea | juniecho: what it doesn't explain is how to create the UUID - use the uuidgen command | 05:22 |
| woody86 | stage3- yeah, ping worked | 05:23 |
| juniecho | UUID? | 05:23 |
| Gnea | uuidgen /dev/sda1 <-- like that | 05:23 |
| Gnea | juniecho: it'll make sense once you edit fstab | 05:23 |
| dr_willis | I hought one can set the uuid with the tune2fs command also. | 05:23 |
| stage3 | woody86, ping -c 4 www.ubuntu.com | 05:23 |
| izinucs | Gnea juniecho you can also just type blkid | 05:23 |
| juniecho | Yeah... i'm opening fstab | 05:23 |
| juniecho | what the ... | 05:24 |
| woody86 | stage3- yup, it went through | 05:24 |
| Gnea | izinucs: hrm... looks a bit intense | 05:24 |
| stage3 | woody86, apt-get update | 05:24 |
| izinucs | Gnea, just list the uuid of all the drives. | 05:24 |
| izinucs | *lists | 05:24 |
| juniecho | so i'm looking in fstab, and it's now mounting just sda3(ubuntu), sda4(swap) | 05:24 |
| juniecho | so here do i have to add sda2 right? | 05:25 |
| Gnea | izinucs: hrm, only works under sudo - nice | 05:25 |
| woody86 | stage3- same errors as last time | 05:25 |
| Gnea | juniecho: yup | 05:25 |
| juniecho | gnea: when i type uuidgen in console, it's like generating random code, what should i do? | 05:25 |
| Gnea | juniecho: make sure you type: uuidgen /dev/sda2 | 05:26 |
| Gnea | juniecho: then just copy the code from that as your UUID for that device | 05:26 |
| === ensarman is now known as bicho | ||
| juniecho | yeah, it's like d56d38c2-8fdb-400a-9fd1-d2328c5fed15. | 05:26 |
| Gnea | UUID=whatever /mount/point ntfs-3g defaults 0 0 something like that | 05:27 |
| juniecho | what about # /dev/sda2? | 05:27 |
| juniecho | is this important? | 05:27 |
| stage3 | woody86, In the live cd do apt-get update | 05:27 |
| Gnea | the # is just a comment - it helps tell you what it actually is | 05:27 |
| Gnea | juniecho: yeah, i'd keep it above it to be safe | 05:28 |
| bigcx2 | hey all | 05:28 |
| juniecho | gnea, what is a mount point? | 05:28 |
| bigcx2 | i have a somewhat intricate question | 05:28 |
| izinucs | Gnea, forgot about sudo when using it. | 05:28 |
| bigcx2 | i have an ubuntu install with a ext3 filesystem w/ some random stuff on it | 05:29 |
| bigcx2 | i want to get a new hard drive of a different size | 05:29 |
| Gnea | juniecho: an empty directory that the partition gets mounted to - for instance, /dev/sda3 is mounted to / | 05:29 |
| bigcx2 | and copy everything over | 05:29 |
| bigcx2 | on the new hard drive | 05:29 |
| bigcx2 | i've run fdisk and ran mkfs.ext3 | 05:29 |
| Gnea | juniecho: if you plug a usb pendrive it, it probably gets mounted as /dev/sdb1 to /mnt/disk | 05:29 |
| izinucs | bigcx2, do you have an external usb drive? | 05:29 |
| bigcx2 | and done a cp -a to get all my files over to the new drive | 05:29 |
| juniecho | so you mean this 'drive' becomes a sub-folder in linux? | 05:29 |
| bigcx2 | no | 05:29 |
| bigcx2 | but i can't get it to boot? | 05:30 |
| Gnea | juniecho: yes, it's how linux reads it. there are no drive letters. | 05:30 |
| juniecho | oh so everything is under /, the root partition i specified | 05:30 |
| Gnea | exactly. | 05:30 |
| bigcx2 | what special stuff should i have to do to get a ext3 partition to be bootable | 05:30 |
| juniecho | now i get the picture | 05:30 |
| izinucs | bigcx2, well if you've copied all the files over then you have to make sure the drive is flagged as a boot drive and you might need to reinstall grub | 05:30 |
| Gnea | :) | 05:30 |
| juniecho | so, the question is, do i have to create the folder manually? | 05:31 |
| bigcx2 | izinucs: i used fdisk to do that, and i sort of thought i might have to re-install grub | 05:31 |
| kimagure | Error 18: Selected cylinder exceeds maximum supported by BIOS - anyone - installed new HD from old computer into new | 05:31 |
| bigcx2 | izinucs: but i tried to do it by hand and it wasn't pretty | 05:31 |
| bigcx2 | izinucs: maybe it would be better to do it with apt you mean? | 05:31 |
| Gnea | juniecho: yes. i would keep it simple: sudo mkdir /mnt/vista and then something like this: UUID=d56d38c2-8fdb-400a-9fd1-d2328c5fed15 /mnt/vista ntfs-3g defaults 0 0 | 05:31 |
| juniecho | so can it be like /data or something like that? | 05:31 |
| juniecho | under mnt? | 05:32 |
| Aaqil | How to fix this problem in synaptic package manager and update manager? http://paste.ubuntu.com/62351/ | 05:32 |
| juniecho | i have 'media' folder and 'mnt' folder | 05:32 |
| Gnea | yeah, /mnt is a generally safe 'mount' directory | 05:32 |
| Gnea | er | 05:32 |
| juniecho | cdrom is under media right now | 05:32 |
| Gnea | yeah, /media/vista | 05:32 |
| bullgard4 | What is the default value of 'maximum mount count' in an ext2 or ext3 partition? | 05:32 |
| Gnea | sorry, somehow my brain was in installation mode :) | 05:32 |
| Gnea | bullgard4: what it's set to. | 05:33 |
| bullgard4 | Gnea: o_O | 05:33 |
| === munoz` is now known as munoz | ||
| Gnea | bullgard4: or do you mean, before it gets fscked? | 05:33 |
| izinucs | bigcx2, grub is not done with apt.. what you might consider is 3 partitons on the new drive.. one for root (/) about 8-12 gigs... one for swap (/swap) about 1 gig... and the rest for /home (where your data lives.. copy /home from the old drive to the new drive and then just reinstall fresh without formatting /home | 05:33 |
| bullgard4 | Gnea: Yes. | 05:33 |
| Aaqil | How to fix this problem in synaptic package manager and update manager? http://paste.ubuntu.com/62351/ | 05:34 |
| juniecho | so gnea, this is what i added: | 05:34 |
| juniecho | # /dev/sda2 (data) | 05:34 |
| juniecho | UUID=d56d38c2-8fdb-400a-9fd1-d2328c5fed15 /media/data ntfs-3g defaults 0 0 | 05:34 |

| Gnea | bullgard4: okay, sorry about that. :) i think it's 32... | 05:34 |
| mbrigdan | can someone help me get the 32-bit version of libgmodule-1.2 on amd64? No packages seem to have it, and one of my programs needs it. | 05:34 |
| Gnea | juniecho: aaaah! pastebinit!!! :) | 05:34 |
| juniecho | oops... | 05:34 |
| juniecho | sorry for the mess | 05:34 |
| Gnea | lol np | 05:34 |
| bigcx2 | izinucs: do you think this is possible to do without a re-install? | 05:34 |
| juniecho | so anyway will it work if i add those lines? | 05:35 |
| bigcx2 | izinucs: that's what i'm shooting for | 05:35 |
| bullgard4 | Aaqil: You should send an error report to Launchpad. | 05:35 |
| Aaqil | :-s | 05:35 |
| bigcx2 | izinucs: i figured grub had some pre or post install hooks at install time that did some magic | 05:35 |
| izinucs | bigcx2, I'm not really the one to ask .. never done it the way you're attempting.. often times you're not catching everything in the copy. | 05:35 |

| Aaqil | bullgard4: last time that happened and here i came, they said to re install ubuntu :((,, now again? during updates or installations if electricity load shedding happens that thing occurs.. ubuntu team should fix that thing we get often load shedding. | 05:36 |

| Gnea | izinucs: interesting - the 'G' is silent for what i've been used to - like 'knee-ah', or just 'knee', depending on who's saying it ;) | 05:52 |
| izinucs | kaston, do you also have gnash installed? | 05:52 |
| Aaqil | bullgard4: ok | 05:52 |
| EyesOfARaven | i need 1024x600 resolution, i borked my drivers then fixed them... but now only have 640x480 and 800x600 - i also tried adding the display subsection in xorg.conf but no go | 05:52 |
| kthef | EyesOfARaven, what video card you got? | 05:52 |
| izinucs | Gnea, that's what I get for hanging out with a bunch of Minnesota-ians :) | 05:52 |
| kaston | nope. what's gnash and how was i supposed to know to install that? | 05:52 |
| juniecho | izinucs, after updating the kernel, GRUB shows FIVE entries for ubuntu, two for new kernel(normal, safemode), two for old kernel, and memtest. does this mean i still have the old, unused kernel in my system? | 05:53 |
| Gnea | izinucs: rofl | 05:53 |
| EyesOfARaven | some intel integrated | 05:53 |
| EyesOfARaven | it's an eee | 05:53 |
| izinucs | kaston, you don't .. it's one or the other.. not both. | 05:53 |
| kthef | EyesOfARaven, ooops, don't know nuttin bout that one! hehehehe | 05:53 |
| EyesOfARaven | it worked when i installed ubuntu | 05:53 |
| EyesOfARaven | :p | 05:53 |
| kaston | oh ok | 05:53 |
| izinucs | juniecho, yes.. just use the system for a while and if it works ok then use synaptic to uninstall the old kernel. | 05:53 |
| kthef | EyesOfARaven, you can edit the xorg.conf file | 05:53 |
| dsdeiz | if i first installed ubuntu then installed windows, which boot loader (is that the correct terM? hehehe) would be on top? ubuntu's or window's? | 05:53 |
| wsa | juniecho: yes you should | 05:53 |
| kaston | so any idea why it isnt working? | 05:54 |
| EyesOfARaven | kthef: i did. | 05:54 |
| wsa | juniecho: check /boot | 05:54 |
| izinucs | kaston, sorry no.. | 05:54 |
| dsdeiz | anyone? anyone? hehehe | 05:54 |
| kthef | EyesOfARaven, add in some of the res settings, or sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg | 05:54 |
| Gnea | dsdeiz: the boot loader installed by the recently-installed OS. in your case, windows, or ntloader | 05:54 |
| EyesOfARaven | kthef: i did both of those already | 05:54 |
| izinucs | !grub | dsdeiz | 05:55 |
| ubottu | dsdeiz: GRUB is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost GRUB after installing Windows? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreGrub - GRUB how-tos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto | 05:55 |

| kthef | EyesOfARaven, did you put the right video driver in there? | 05:55 |
| EyesOfARaven | i kinda left it blank cuz i have no bloody clue whaT to use | 05:55 |
| EyesOfARaven | :p | 05:55 |
| dsdeiz | i see. though is there a way to make ubuntu's boot loader (which I guess is grub) go on top? | 05:55 |
| EyesOfARaven | the conf is nearly empty cept structure | 05:55 |
| wsa | hmm. coming from a certain *other* distro, does apt handle old kernel versions? if juniecho wants to get rid of old kernels, should he just delete the images, or use apt to remove them? | 05:55 |
| EyesOfARaven | isnt there a "redetect my hardware" option, kthef? | 05:55 |
| kaston | i also have a logitech usb headset that i used to be able to plug and play when i was running windows but now i can't do that. how can i fix this? | 05:55 |
| EyesOfARaven | it worked when i installed ubuntu | 05:55 |
| izinucs | !grub | dsdeiz | 05:55 |
| ubottu | dsdeiz: GRUB is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost GRUB after installing Windows? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreGrub - GRUB how-tos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto | 05:55 |
| kthef | EyesOfARaven, try: sudo lshw > myhardware.txt then view the myhardware.txt looking for the video card info | 05:55 |
| Gnea | dsdeiz: yeah, see the url about RestoreGrub | 05:55 |
| dsdeiz | hehe thanks ;) | 05:56 |
| juniecho | yeah how can i remove the old kernel? well i understand i can just remove the old kernel entries from GRUB, but i think old kernel is not quite necessary | 05:56 |
| kthef | EyesOfARaven, then google the card info and ubuntu | 05:56 |
| izinucs | juniecho, go to synaptic and search for "kernel" and you'll see it in there. | 05:57 |
| juniecho | there are way too many kernel-related entries here :) | 05:58 |
| wsa | also where the hell does ubuntu stick its grub.conf | 05:58 |
| izinucs | juniecho, look for the ones that have at reen or colored box next to them.. those are the ones that are installed. | 05:58 |
| izinucs | reen=green | 05:59 |
| wsa | find / -iname "grub.conf" returns nothing | 05:59 |
| kthef | wsa, cat /boot/grub/menu.lst | 05:59 |
| juniecho | oh right... so it is like removing everything marked 2.6.24-16 | 05:59 |
| kthef | wsa, take out the cat | 05:59 |
| kthef | hehehe | 05:59 |
| izinucs | wsa, /boot/grub/boot.lst | 05:59 |
| izinucs | wsa, sorry menu.lst | 05:59 |
| izinucs | juniecho, yep. if that is the kernel that is the oldest.. | 06:00 |
| juniecho | what is linux-ubuntu-modules? | 06:00 |
| wsa | less /boot/grub/menu.lst, thanks | 06:00 |
| wsa | less is more | 06:00 |
| kthef | wsa, sudo nano -w /boot/grub/menu.lst | 06:01 |
| kthef | hehe | 06:01 |
| wsa | pshaw | 06:01 |
| lynda2k5 | good morning | 06:01 |
| wsa | vi /boot/grub/menu.lst | 06:01 |
| wsa | as root! | 06:01 |
| izinucs | lynda2k5, morning? you gotta be in the east european countries someplace.. | 06:01 |
| kthef | wsa, I don't like the vi | 06:02 |
| kthef | just say no to vi | 06:02 |
| kthef | hehehe | 06:02 |
| dr_willis | vi - 'Very Imporntant' :) | 06:02 |
| kthef | very irritating | 06:02 |
| lynda2k5 | nope | 06:02 |
| izinucs | k | 06:02 |
| wsa | one of the cool things I am noticing about ubuntu is that vi is not aliased to vim | 06:02 |
| dr_willis | every time i reread my books on VI i discover yet another new feature id frogotten about... | 06:02 |
| wsa | s/cool/annoying/ | 06:02 |
| kthef | s/vi/nano/ | 06:03 |
| kthef | :D | 06:03 |
| dr_willis | wsa, err.. vi by default is 'vim-tiny' i do belive. in a normal install... | 06:03 |
| dr_willis | one of the first things I do is install the vim-full package | 06:03 |

| li|2jkl | hi, i'm not quite sure what's the difference between the "standard pc" and "64bit AMD and Intel computers" that is being asked when installing ubuntu.. any information would be much appreciated | 06:06 |
| wsa | li|2jkl: what is the CPU of the machine that you are installing to? | 06:07 |
| li|2jkl | it's an intel core duo in my laptop | 06:07 |
| wsa | li|2jkl: you have one of the "64 bit AMD and Intel computers" | 06:07 |
| === techgeek is now known as techgeek40 | ||
| li|2jkl | really? dang. i downloaded the other onef | 06:08 |
| wsa | ubuntu installs a multilib system on x86_64 by default, right? | 06:08 |
| dr_willis | li|2jkl, you can use either one.. the 32bit disrto will work fine. | 06:08 |
| dr_willis | wsa, im not sure it did.. but i am just testing 64bit on the new laptop . I think some packages I installed DID grab that stuff however.. so | 06:09 |
| dr_willis | wsa, it installed it very soon after i installed. :) if it wasent there by default | 06:09 |
| li|2jkl | oh okay.. so any will do right? | 06:10 |
| li|2jkl | thanks | 06:10 |
| munoz | has anyone ever done something like gcc main.c -o main.c | 06:10 |
| munoz | hehehehe | 06:10 |
| wsa | li|2jkl: you won't be taking advantage of all of the capabilities of your CPU with the one you downloaded | 06:11 |
| techgeek40 | I am running Ubuntu 8.04 on a VM machine (xVM VirtualBox) and I would like to be able to see my USB drive - is there a way to do that? | 06:11 |
| Tom_Davis | what needs to be installed to make the ibm trackpoint work? | 06:11 |
| dr_willis | li|2jkl, i tend to use 32bit on my mahcines.. i am only now testing out 64bit..so far its worked very well under 8.10 - just a few issues | 06:11 |
| wsa | li|2jkl: whether this is important to you is a value judgement | 06:11 |
| li|2jkl | i see.. but i guess i could still experience ubuntu with any.. i just wanted to know why many people like this linux distro | 06:12 |
| li|2jkl | hehe | 06:12 |
| wsa | dr_willis: what issues? I just installed 64 bit ubuntu clandestinely on a work laptop (core 2) | 06:12 |
| dr_willis | techgeek40, dependind on what you want to do - you could set up a 'shared' directory and let the host OS share it with virtualbox. | 06:12 |
| wsa | flash is buggy linux flash as usual but that's the only issue I've encountered so far | 06:13 |
| dr_willis | wsa, i hear theres no 64bit skype yet.. but other then that.. ive not really had many issues.. I am testing 8.10 so. my issues coule be 8.10 related. not 64bit related. :) | 06:13 |
| wsa | ah, ok | 06:13 |
| dr_willis | wsa, i have rarely had flash issues. :) but i dont YouTube much | 06:13 |
| juniecho | can anyone help with configuring tablet screen - http://mirosol.kapsi.fi/tx2020/tx2000howto.htm i'm following this guide | 06:14 |
| dr_willis | wsa, I do think it was the ubuntu-restrcted-extras package that grabbed flash and those compatiablity libs. :) | 06:14 |
| wsa | probably same here | 06:14 |
| favro | what are we using for youtube video these days? | 06:14 |
| juniecho | i don't get where i get rotation to work with xrandr -o left/right/inverted/normal commands | 06:14 |
| === spastic_teapot is now known as spasticteapot | ||
| dr_willis | favro, i just dont utube. :) flash 10 seems to work for me most of the time however | 06:15 |
| lynda2k5 | good morning | 06:16 |
| favro | dr_willis: I set it up ages ago and can't remember what i did hehe | 06:16 |
| mouseboyx | You can also just download them in flv format and watch them in something besides a browser... | 06:16 |
| dr_willis | Yea - there is a stand alone flash player for linux.. but tracking it down is a bit hard.. the flash company seems to want to hide it. | 06:16 |
| wsa | juniecho: uh well it looks like you get to be creative about what input triggers the rotations | 06:17 |
| favro | dr_willis: is it gnash maybe? | 06:17 |
| mouseboyx | I mean, you can watch flv in totem or mplayer too. | 06:17 |
| Tom_Davis | ok, ubuntu.com says trackpoint should "just work" but I aint getting it | 06:17 |
| Mixed432 | I get a lot of distortion when I route my appz through JACK, anyone had the same problem??? | 06:17 |
| wsa | juniecho: does the laptop have an accelerometer that would ordinarily do this? | 06:17 |
| dr_willis | favro, ive beenusing flash 10 lately. | 06:17 |
| favro | k thnx | 06:17 |
| juniecho | what is an accelerometer? sorry | 06:18 |
| extor | How do I create a "loopback interface" in linux which I can give my own ip addy and subnet? Do I just add it as a subinterface to the lo 127.0.0.1 interface? | 06:18 |
| dr_willis | juniecho, a device that measures acceleration. i belive. | 06:18 |
| wsa | exactly | 06:18 |
| sleepster | anyone know of a program that will convert divx to dvd? | 06:18 |
| wsa | as in, you physically rotate the laptop, and the screen rotates | 06:18 |
| juniecho | you mean when i flip the screen? | 06:18 |
| |Cyb3rPunk| | hey how can i get ubuntu to remember my settings | 06:18 |
| mouseboyx | flash 9 works for me flawlessly, it used to crash all the time. | 06:18 |
| Tom_Davis | alright, a mouse works but trackpoint is no joy, help? | 06:18 |
| dr_willis | sleepster, DeVeDe can make dvd videos from other video files.. theres proerly otehr tools also. | 06:19 |
| wsa | oooooh okay a switch in the hinge or something | 06:19 |
| juniecho | oh yeah, it works with windows so i think this laptop has it | 06:19 |
| sleepster | thanks dr_willis | 06:19 |
| wsa | oh wait -- 'Yes, quickplay, because "original" rotation-button doesn't give any keycode. aka. doesn't work | 06:19 |
| wsa | ' | 06:19 |
| bullgard4 | Gnea: Thank you for your help. | 06:19 |
| dr_willis | accelerometer is a sensor ibelive used so when you drop the laptop - it sees its going to hit.. and auto-parks the hard drive. :) | 06:19 |
| juniecho | but i don't need that auto-rotate thing, what i need is instead of rotating the screen by 90 degrees, i want to rotate the screen by 180 degrees at the push of a button | 06:20 |
| |Cyb3rPunk| | how do I get ubuntu to rember my settings so when I log back on after restart it auto opends every back up | 06:20 |
| wsa | juniecho: it looks like the howto is telling you to copy a shell script from the howto and bind it to a key | 06:20 |
| favro | !sessions | 06:20 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about sessions | 06:20 |
| juniecho | yes so i edited the shell script myself like this: http://pastebin.com/m7e09d9f1 | 06:20 |
| |Cyb3rPunk| | can it be done? | 06:21 |
| dr_willis | |Cyb3rPunk|, gnome has a 'sessions' settings control tool that has a check bos for that - i belive. | 06:21 |
| juniecho | so it could get to inverted straight when i press the button, instead of 90 degrees rotation | 06:21 |
| |Cyb3rPunk| | where do i fin d that? | 06:21 |
| juniecho | what i don't understand is this: rotation="$(xrandr -q --verbose | sed -n '2 {p;q}' | cut -d' ' -f5)" | 06:22 |
| Xavura | I'm guessing all these programs beginning with k aren't really needed | 06:22 |
| Xavura | and are leftovers from kubuntu? | 06:22 |
| dr_willis | |Cyb3rPunk|, check the settings/admin menus. | 06:22 |
| Akazawa | whats a good visio alternative for ubuntu? | 06:22 |
| juniecho | so could i just leave the line as it is and get the 180 degrees rotation? | 06:22 |
| dr_willis | Xavura, depens on the app. | 06:22 |
| Gnea | bullgard4: cheers | 06:22 |
| legend2440 | |Cyb3rPunk|: do you mean auto login? so you dont have to enter name and password? | 06:23 |
| wsa | juniecho: huh, it looks like it gets information about the current orientation of the screen and stores it as ${rotation} | 06:23 |
| Polygon89 | where can i get ahold of an op? | 06:24 |
| |Cyb3rPunk| | no i got that want to make it so when i log in every thing reopens like what i had open in my last session fedora had somting in admin settings but cant find it in here | 06:24 |
| Gnea | Polygon89: why? | 06:24 |
| Polygon89 | oj maid pmed me with an advertisement the second i joined | 06:24 |
| Gnea | Polygon89: report it to #freenode | 06:24 |
| kharnov | Me too. | 06:24 |
| Xavura | dr_willis: kthreadd ksoftirqd/0 khelper kblockd/0 kacpid kacpi_notify kseriod kswapd0 ksuspend_usbd kjournald kpsmoused kgameportd kondemand/0 klogd | 06:24 |
| juniecho | hmm if that's so nothing to worry about i think | 06:24 |
| dr_willis | Xavura, its very likely those are Kernel processes... | 06:25 |
| Xavura | how likely is very likely? | 06:25 |
| wsa | juniecho: keeping in mind that I don't actually know anything, it looks like the cases for 'normal' and 'inverted' are absolute and not relative transformations | 06:25 |
| kharnov | Okay, I kinda need some help here. Usually, I can run Tremulous just fine, but now if I try to run it, I get a black screen telling me that the screen resolution can't be displayed or something like that. | 06:25 |
| dr_willis | Xavura, i would say most all of them are.. they seem familer to me - google the specific names and see to be 100% sure. | 06:25 |
| dr_willis | Xavura, i rember looking up some of them ages ago when i noticed them in the process tree. | 06:26 |
| legend2440 | |Cyb3rPunk|: open system>preferences>sessions>session options tab | 06:26 |
| Xavura | ok also dr_willis when I run top it says 2 users, but I am the only user??? | 06:26 |
| Xavura | or anyone | 06:26 |
| wsa | juniecho: you'll be in trouble, removing the sections of code that you removed, if for any reason your screen is stuck at 90 or 270 | 06:26 |
| dr_willis | Xavura, You could be logged in several different times/processes so its counting each one as a user | 06:27 |
| Polygon89 | Hi.....i think windows xp killed my cd drive,...and now it wont even open in ubuntu, it says its not responding to a dbus call or something......any suggestions? =/ | 06:27 |
| juniecho | so how could i get my screen stuck at 0 or 180? | 06:27 |
| Xavura | dr_willis: How can I check, looks funky to me | 06:27 |
| kharnov | Er, wait, lemme rephrase my problem. | 06:27 |
| |Cyb3rPunk| | every thing gose good untill the lst step | 06:27 |
| juniecho | because i don't want 90 or 270 yeah... | 06:27 |
| Xavura | dr_willis: I just logged in like 10 minutes ago.. no one else is logged in | 06:27 |
| dr_willis | Xavura, try the 'who' command. | 06:27 |
| Xavura | I see tty and pts/0 | 06:28 |
| Xavura | Both on my name | 06:28 |
| Xavura | That ok then? | 06:28 |
| kharnov | If I try to run a game, I get a black screen telling me I can't run at a certain resolution, but I already am running at that resolution, but with a different frequency. However, I can't switch to that frequency for some reason. | 06:28 |
| wsa | juniecho: well there is no case for 90 or 270 in your script now -- so if something causes the screen to be in that orientation, the button won't do anything | 06:28 |
| |Cyb3rPunk| | no "session" menu | 06:28 |
| wsa | juniecho: hang on | 06:28 |
| dr_willis | Xavura, now go to a consle and log in again.. then check who again. :) and see if its now 3 | 06:28 |
| juniecho | oh i understand... | 06:28 |
| juniecho | yeah | 06:28 |
| Xavura | dr_willis: Ah I see, ok | 06:29 |
| Xavura | thanks | 06:29 |

| Polygon89 | wsa, as in....it works but it won't respond to eject calls | 06:31 |
| Polygon89 | wsa, well it works in windows at least | 06:31 |
| Gnea | Polygon89: you can do it while the power is on too... won't hurt anything | 06:31 |
| wsa | Polygon89: aaaaaah nevermind | 06:31 |
| Gnea | Polygon89: unless it's mounted | 06:32 |
| Polygon89 | wsa, Gnea i think windows xp killed my cd drive...literally...which is why im asking | 06:32 |
| Gnea | Polygon89: if the cdrom is mounted, it's not going to eject until you unmount it | 06:32 |
| Polygon89 | Gnea, there is nothing in the drive | 06:32 |
| Gnea | Polygon89: try the paperclip - might just need that extra kick to open once to be okay again | 06:32 |
| wsa | Polygon89: can you read from / mount a cd? | 06:32 |
| |Cyb3rPunk| | that chan is dead... | 06:32 |

| Gnea | Polygon89: did you push it in far enough? | 06:33 |
| Gnea | Polygon89: you should hit something solid - when you do, keep pushing | 06:33 |
| Polygon89 | wsa, it doesn't even open...and in windows it freezes the computer if i put a cd in... | 06:33 |
| Polygon89 | Gnea, it opens, but then i close it again and it still doesn't fix it. | 06:33 |

| jim_p | where do i set my dns servers in? its somewhere in /etc but where? | 06:53 |
| Tazz_NB | jim_p, /etc/resolv.conf | 06:53 |
| jim_p | Tazz_NB: thanks mate | 06:54 |
| wsa | welllll wait a minute does this box have a static ip jim_p? | 06:54 |
| * jim_p makes a big letter note | 06:54 | |
| wsa | dhcpcd should populate resolv.conf with nameservers automagically . . . | 06:54 |
| jim_p | wsa: i need to set my isps dns servers and i use static ip on my lan | 06:54 |
| wsa | jim_p: this may be overkill for you, but i might recommend running tinydns or dnsmasq on your router, naming your isps nameservers as nexthops, and doing static leases | 06:56 |
| Tazz_NB | wsa, haha - I was typing up the same | 06:56 |
| Tazz_NB | :) | 06:56 |
| wsa | great minds lol | 06:56 |
| Tazz_NB | jim_p, assuming you are an adsl/dsl user, it might even pay to run a local proxy with something like tinydns etc | 06:57 |
| Tazz_NB | I do it at home and it saves me a good couple of meg every month | 06:57 |
| jim_p | wsa: kill me as in...? i use static ip on my lan, and i simply set my isps dns servers there and i am fine. this pc i am on now has all this and its working perfectly | 06:57 |
| Tazz_NB | jim_p, dns lookup make up quite a "bit" of network traffic etc, having a local dns "cache" helps quite a bit | 06:58 |
| wsa | what Tazz_NB said | 06:58 |
| jim_p | Tazz_NB: oh come on. its like ...2 ips! | 06:59 |
| wsa | also if you EVER get an IP address dynamically you will probably lose what is in resolv.conf | 06:59 |
| wsa | but yeah what you are doing will work so long as you never change anything | 06:59 |
| jim_p | wsa: dynamically from the isp? i get a new ip almost daily | 06:59 |
| Tazz_NB | jim_p, you wanna tell me you only connect to two servers ? | 06:59 |
| wsa | jim_p: no I just mean the box in question -- from the router -- like i said it might be overkill -- if your configuration is static you can just edit resolv.conf | 07:01 |
| === Raymond_CN is now known as Raymond_CN_away | ||
| jim_p | Tazz_NB + wsa: here is the deal. i am on adsl. i use an adsl router to connect to my isp. that router has its own ip and my pc has its own ip too, both static. however i need to state my isps dns servers (on my pc, on the router they are already set) for better "results" | 07:02 |
| z0r | hi! I'm trying to upgrade to Intrepid using a live CD .iso mounted at /cdrom. When I tried using apt-cdrom to add it as a source, it wouldn't recognise it because the Packages file is actually called Packages.gz | 07:03 |
| Tazz_NB | ok - jim_p - your router can most likely run a dns server no ? | 07:03 |

| lap | carpediem: thanks : ) | 07:03 |
| jim_p | Tazz_NB: be a dns server itself? i think so. it can dhcp though | 07:04 |
| z0r | i thought upgrading apt to the version in Intrepid would help, so I've done that. Now it adds the sources, but ignores them. Here's the output of apt-cdrom -a -m -d /cdrom add: http://paste.ubuntu.com/62379/ | 07:04 |
| z0r | how can i get apt to recognise those sources? | 07:04 |
| Tazz_NB | jim_p, it should be able to | 07:05 |
| jim_p | z0r: i am not 100% sure, but i think that you need the alternative cd to do so. only the alternative can be recognised as sources | 07:05 |
| z0r | jim_p: oh, ok. Someone in here earlier said the live cd would work too | 07:06 |
| jim_p | z0r: i an not sure though | 07:06 |
| wsa | z0r: not enough bandwidth to use an online repo to upgrade? | 07:08 |
| wsa | can you use an online repo to upgrade? | 07:08 |
| z0r | wsa: that's why I've been avoiding it, yeah | 07:08 |
| z0r | but i guess i could | 07:08 |
| wsa | well for my part if you are going to download the cd it's generally better to download the smallest image a distro offers and then go from there | 07:10 |
| wsa | but you probably got mailed something, no? | 07:11 |
| z0r | wsa: i downloaded the iso last night when bandwidth was off peak. I thought it would be a good way to go, but apparently i got the wrong image | 07:12 |

| PlutoPrime | Hi, I'm setting up Ubuntu as a Media center desktop ... I've always had the problem where the Screen Resolution is detected correctly on my LCD HDTV, however the ubuntu desktop is stretched too much and the Task Bars appear out of the TV boundaries. In Windows, Nvidia drivers have a calibration tool to set the corners of the TV correctly, but how do I solve this in Linux? | 07:14 |
| riddlebox | is there a firewall on ubuntu-server by default? | 07:14 |
| legend2440 | WildBill_: you cant. if you installed the x32 version but want the x64 version you have to reinstall. | 07:14 |
| WildBill_ | I kind of knew that, but was hoping I could cheat a bit. | 07:14 |
| jim_p | riddlebox: iptables | 07:14 |
| favro | Riddell: there is always iptables | 07:15 |
| favro | !iptables | 07:15 |
| ubottu | Ubuntu, like any other linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'iptables' command (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo), or GUI applications such as Firestarter (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE). | 07:15 |
| wsa | f*** yeah iptables | 07:15 |
| riddlebox | jim_p, well I am not sure, but for some reason my sip connections from outside the network dont hit the server, but inside they do, I have all the ports forwarded on my firewall | 07:15 |

| juniecho | yeah great, almost everything is working | 07:22 |
| juniecho | thanks wsa | 07:22 |
| wsa | of course juniecho anytime | 07:22 |
| juniecho | ah but do you know how to build with make install command? | 07:23 |
| jim_p | wsa: i think its better to install debian since its a server | 07:23 |
| jim_p | wsa: mind if i ask about its duties? | 07:23 |
| juniecho | i'm trying to get the tablet pen work, the guide said i need some patched driver | 07:23 |
| dr_willis | I imagine it depends on the 'server' tasks. also | 07:23 |
| wsa | tyler: that behaviour is usually the behaviour of some safe mode boot option, or some errant early userspace init checkpoint. are you selecting the correct boot option? | 07:23 |
| juniecho | so i downloaded the driver and patched it, but i cannot compile this so cannot install this thing | 07:24 |
| tyler | wsa: yes its really weird, sometimes it boots perfectly ok, and sometimes it goes into busyshell, ide say its about 50 50, i just reboot it again and it boots fine...it also did this in debian with the updated kernel....could be reacting to my hardware i guess | 07:24 |
| dr_willis | tyler, i had an olkder box that had tobe rebooted after failing to boot from a powered off state.. never have figured out why. but its old/backup/spare - | 07:25 |
| wsa | jim_p: of course, it is a layer-3 router for a very small lan, offering dhcp, dns, ntp, and some file shares and a local cvs repository, also it offers smtp, imap, pop3, and http to the wan (oh and ntp too) | 07:26 |

| dan_ | hello :) anybody here who is using irssi now? | 07:27 |
| wsa | tyler: it is more likely that it is the initramfs that was built with your kernel. not knowing anything about the ubuntu initramfs, i'd poke around in the bb shell, try to find out if you are in early userspace or in real userspace, and look for some kind of log and post the results | 07:28 |

| dr_willis | neztiti, you may want to clarify what it is you are trying to do.. if k3b is an older version in the repos.. you would need tocheck the PPA repos perhaps for a newer version, or use source. | 07:31 |

| dr_willis | cherva, you could alwahs ssh to the box and run a text based editor. :) but yes. I do think theres some GUI exitors that can edit over ftp/ssh but i dont rember what ones.. emacs proberly can..it can do everything else. gedit might have the feature, also geany might. | 07:42 |
| wsa | and try the next steps of the howto (inserting the module, et cetera) | 07:42 |

| juniecho | so i think editing xorg.conf will solve the problem, but can you identify the part that controls 'TOUCHSCREEN' (i mean finger touch) part? because i don't want to activate touchscreen function, i only want to use my pen. | 07:47 |
| dr_willis | cherva, yea. i use sshfs a lot. and the smbfuse stuff.. i find the apps work better with them. then with the gnome/share/ftp browser method. | 07:47 |

| wsa | jim_p: because i want everything to be the same, and gentoo on a desktop is a painful (but rewarding) experience | 07:48 |

| jim_p | wsa: so you need a desktop too? try debian lenny then | 07:49 |
| dr_willis | cherva, i think thats calling the app 'alacarte' or somthing like that | 07:50 |
| jim_p | wsa: i suggest lenny, because etch packages are like... as ancient as the parthenon | 07:51 |

| Smegzor | I'm about to back up my root by copying it. I'm skipping home, mnt, media. Are there any other folders I do not want to include in my backup? My home is in a different partition. | 07:57 |
| SBTooth | any action in here... not much going on with the ibex | 07:58 |
| jim_p | Smegzor: i suggest fstab, xorg.conf, menu.lst and any specific one you may need like samba or network interfaces | 07:58 |
| jim_p | Smegzor: all the others are trivial in front of these 3 | 07:58 |
| Jordan_U_ | jim_p: He asked for what *not* to include | 07:59 |
| jim_p | Smegzor: and sources.list ! 4 then | 07:59 |
| Smegzor | i'm already including those | 07:59 |
| jim_p | Jordan_U_: well these sum to like ...100kb! much much less than an entire copy of the partition | 07:59 |
| SBTooth | i'm looking for some assistance with with an atheros card on intrepid... anyone up for the challenge | 08:00 |
| Smegzor | i'm pretty sure I'm supposed to include the other folders in my backup. I'm aware that some folders are virtual? but I'm not sure which ones. | 08:00 |
| Jordan_U_ | SBTooth: What's the problem? | 08:00 |
| SBTooth | my atheros was working nicely with the new drivers coming with intrepid | 08:00 |
| Jordan_U_ | Smegzor: /proc for instance | 08:01 |
| SBTooth | then i took the latest upgrade and no more wireless | 08:01 |
| Smegzor | thanks. what about dev? skip it? | 08:01 |
| Jordan_U_ | Smegzor: You can tell cp to stick withing one file system when backing up, or use a purpose built backup utility | 08:01 |
| Jordan_U_ | Smegzor: Yes | 08:01 |
| jim_p | SBTooth: what module did ti use? | 08:02 |
| SBTooth | ath5k i think | 08:02 |
| SBTooth | not 100% sure | 08:02 |
| Smegzor | i'm about to resize my root partition, but NOT before attempting a backup :) | 08:02 |
| SBTooth | i know just enough to be dangerous on this thing :( | 08:02 |
| Jordan_U_ | SBTooth: Try enabling the madwifi drivers via System -> Administration -> Hardware Drivers, but note that ath5k will probably work after upcoming updates ( it's been working for me for most of the life of Intrepid and broke with an update today ) | 08:04 |
| sinan | When using a pipe, the second application is only run when the first one finishes. Is there a way to make them run together, and just feed the output of the first to the second "as it occurs"? | 08:04 |
| dr_willis | sinan, thats what 'fifo's are for I think. | 08:05 |
| SBTooth | jordan that has been my experience too | 08:05 |
| Jordan_U_ | sinan: That is in fact what happens, it's just that the data is buffered so it may not seem that way in certain circumstances. What are you trying to accomplish? | 08:05 |
| SBTooth | just wondered if there was anything else i could do | 08:05 |
| sinan | Jordan_U_: I have one application which generates an infinte sequence of data it its stdout, this data is used by a second application when to create a "movie" of plots. | 08:06 |
| sinan | Jordan_U_: I have control over both applications, so I can make them communicate in a different way if needed | 08:06 |
| WIGGMPk | Why is it every time I execute "sudo alsa force-reload" the default Ubuntu login theme plays when I specified a different sound in Sound Preferences (or no sound at all).

| WIGGMPk | rob__: sendmail would have to be configured that way. Unless you provide your own internet service your going to have to use someone's smtp ports | 08:12 |
| Stupendoussteve | rob__, sendmail should support a relay server | 08:12 |

| rob__ | <--- total n00b | 08:13 |
| Stupendoussteve | rob__, yes the configuration will be different... | 08:14 |
| WIGGMPk | rob__: even though you want to use this as "development or testing" you might be breaking your ISP agreement by setting such a server up. I wouldnt want to see you get in trouble for this, so I would advise you speak with your ISP on the matter. I believe this has something to do with the patriot act (logging ISP of all people sending e-mails) something about spammers | 08:14 |
| Tom_Davis | you know if you install hardy on a thinkpad with the trackpoint unplugged it does not install the driver with no hope of recovery? | 08:14 |
| Stupendoussteve | WIGGMPk, this is untrue, it has to do with spammers getting their domains blocked | 08:15 |

| WIGGMPk | Stupendoussteve: hmm, maybe I got two articles mixed up, did you see this reply rob__ | 08:16 |
| Stupendoussteve | rob__, however most ISPs do not want you hosting any type of server, because they want you to get a business account and pay them more | 08:16 |

| lesshaste | WIGGMPk, ok.. shame... I can't believe there isn't anything else | 08:18 |

| trend | frog, cool thanks.. you know how to use it toegrep for A or B ? | 08:18 |
| WIGGMPk | Smegzor: fsck -f (i would recommend) but you might not want to do it while you have the partition mounted in read/write | 08:18 |

| WIGGMPk | lesshaste: i didnt think Ekiga did IM's | 08:20 |
| lesshaste | WIGGMPk, ok.. if it does voice that would be a good start | 08:20 |

| outbackwifi | nnull: i have never seen a blue screen with options in ubuntu; could you paste a pic of the screen on pastebin? | 09:26 |
| nikolam | cloud-e, Then you should check ubuntuforums for a help or try to see what modules are loaded with lsmod etc | 09:27 |
| cloud-e | Forest: I do not know where to check for that digital analogue switch. I looked in the volume preferences and switched to the SB Live! Alsa value and still hear static | 09:27 |

| ronr_laptop | hi, i run ubuntu on my asus r1e laptop, sometimes (usually during boot and the first 30 minutes the laptop runs), the fan suddenly starts to run loud and the laptop turns off altogether, I think it's a heat issue. I can't find anything in syslog, any clue on how to fix this? | 09:32 |
| forestpixie | oh ok - if it's not there then I guess you've not the option :( | 09:32 |
| CaptainMorgan | nikolam, I've got one disk with an installed ubuntu... I have extra disk that I want to use as a mirrored raid 1, there's no data on the primary disk... should I just start over with the alternate cd or should I try to install software raid and include the second disk ? | 09:32 |
| outbackwifi | ronr_laptop: take it back to asus; you might end up frying the motherboard | 09:32 |
| cloud-e | Ty for the link Nicolam | 09:33 |
| `TonY | ronr_laptop, do you have this issue on other OS ? | 09:33 |
| nikolam | CaptainMorgan, I always use alternate cd. So i don`t have a clue about installing on raid from desktop cd. | 09:33 |
| nikolam | CaptainMorgan, I have multiple raid0, raid1 raid0 setup on 2 sata hdd`s, | 09:33 |
| scopecreep | ronr might be the video card if its nvidia also | 09:33 |
| cloud-e | Tony, I just installed 8.04.1 and ran all my updates. I have a Creative Sound Blaster Live! Wave card that works in XP and OpenSuse but not Ubuntu. I get nothing but static. | 09:34 |
| ronr_laptop | `TonY: I had it to a lesser extend with the shipped vista (it looks like ubuntu does 'catch' the problem and makes it a cleaner shutdown, vista has crashed beyond repair by now) | 09:34 |
| jim_p | major haxxor question!!! how can i tell ls to list the files in order of modification? i want to make a list of the 15 newet files and dump it on a txt. like so ls -someparameter | tail 20 > recent.txt | 09:34 |
| outbackwifi | cloud-e: can you pastebin your lspci? | 09:34 |
| __coredump__ | cloud-e, use alsa soundsystem instead of pulseaudio | 09:34 |
| CaptainMorgan | nikolam, and it was easiest for you with the alternate cd to setup your raid system? did you follow a guide you can recommend ? | 09:34 |
| nikolam | CaptainMorgan, Dont forget After installing on Raid1 to Check with mdadm does raid1 reely USE 2 disks in raid1.. Turn the other on, i had situation where second one was no active by default.. | 09:35 |
| outbackwifi | jim_p: ls -ltr | 09:35 |
| deepakcr | when is the latest version of ubuntu is being released? | 09:35 |

| ronr_laptop | scopecreep: it's a intel integrated mobile gm965 (according to lspci) | 09:35 |
| cloud-e | Coredump, is alsa not set up to be my default? | 09:35 |
| nikolam | CaptainMorgan, I first make raid partitions then restart, make raid and then install on it. all within setup from cd | 09:35 |
| scopecreep | ronr_laptop, nevermind that part then, i have a dying nvidia laptopcard here myself | 09:36 |
| __coredump__ | cloud-e, hardy uses pulseaudio as default | 09:36 |
| jim_p | outbackwifi: thanks a million | 09:36 |
| cloud-e | Outback, I know what paste bin is but what is lspci? list peripheral component interfact? and how do i get that? | 09:36 |
| `TonY | ronr_laptop, then as they told you before, take it to asus | 09:36 |
| nikolam | cloud-e, I already told you solution page for Live!: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=114551 | 09:36 |
| CaptainMorgan | nikolam, and then when you came off the cd, ie: booted into the system for the first time, with the exception you just mentioned, everything worked as planned? | 09:36 |
| outbackwifi | cloud-e: type lspci in a terminal | 09:37 |
| DIFH-iceroot | i am using a fake-raid1 but ubuntu 8.04 is only detecting sda and sdb and not my raid-array at installation, how can i tell ubuntu that i am using a fake-raid1-array? | 09:37 |
| nnull | outbackwifi¬ lawl it actually shutdown.. i must be performing the sudo shutdown command wrongly or something because it says the computer is shutting down for maintenance and then goes that screen if i do it that way | 09:37 |
| cloud-e | Nikolam, I am going to try your fix. I will BRB | 09:37 |
| nikolam | CaptainMorgan, Yes, just check is the second volume in raid reely active and activate it from mdadm | 09:37 |
| ronr_laptop | `TonY: they told me before?? will check with asus though | 09:37 |
| MartEenz | esyawn | 09:37 |

| `TonY | ronr_laptop, i mean helpers here <outbackwifi> ronr_laptop: take it back to asus; you might end up frying the motherboard | 09:38 |
| MartEenz | i gotta go | 09:38 |
| lwolf | hi | 09:38 |
| nnull | outbackwifi¬ i did then, and it worked, but before i was shutting down from a terminal, and i think what im typing in the terminal to shutdown must be wrong | 09:38 |
| ronr_laptop | `TonY: ah, I missed that one | 09:38 |
| outbackwifi | nnull: i would still be interested in knowing what that blue screen was :) | 09:39 |
| `TonY | ronr_laptop, np | 09:39 |
| nnull | outbackwifi¬ you running 8.04.1 ? | 09:39 |
| nnull | outbackwifi¬ type "sudo shutdown TIME" TIME being the time in 24hrs u want to shutdown, so do it for a minutes time, and it should take you there heh | 09:40 |
| outbackwifi | nnull: 8.04 apparently (whats the 1 at the end for?) | 09:40 |
| nnull | outbackwifi¬ its a upgrade | 09:40 |
| outbackwifi | nnull: lemme try that | 09:40 |
| nnull | theres 8.04 and 8.04.1 | 09:40 |
| DIFH-iceroot | outbackwifi: the .1 is a new 8.04 version with ssl-fix | 09:40 |
| outbackwifi | nnull: uhuh, shouldve happened automatically | 09:41 |
| DIFH-iceroot | outbackwifi: if you are using 8.04 and make an upgrade (apt-get upgrade) you have the fix from 8.04.1 | 09:41 |
| outbackwifi | nnull: my lsb_release -a says 8.04.1 | 09:41 |
| nnull | outbackwifi¬ well there you go | 09:41 |
| rummy | I can't mount usb flash drive: invalid mount option when attempting to mount the volume | 09:41 |

| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about bsod | 09:49 |
| nnull | how usefull a shutdown command that doesnt actually shutdown lawl | 09:49 |
| nnull | maybe if i type dropmetorecoveryconsole now it will shutdown | 09:49 |
| nnull | think its koz im not using the -H switch | 09:50 |
| outbackwifi | nnull: i normally use reboot or halt | 09:50 |
| Stupendoussteve | nnull, use halt? | 09:50 |
| `TonY | nnull, how about reboot and poweroff commands ? | 09:50 |
| outbackwifi | nnull: stopped using shutdown since i moved from SCO | 09:50 |
| nnull | ah never used halt ill have a look at that | 09:51 |
| cloud-e | Tony? | 09:51 |
| `TonY | cloud-e ? | 09:51 |

| praetorian_069 | hey guys | 09:52 |
| outbackwifi | !hi | praetorian_069 | 09:52 |
| ubottu | praetorian_069: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu! | 09:52 |
| * nnull blushes | 09:52 | |
| trav | Hey praetorian, First time/? | 09:53 |
| praetorian_069 | yah... that obvious huh lol | 09:53 |
| SliMM | the network manager can't use WiFi anymore, even thouh it shows up when I use iwconfig | 09:53 |
| trav | Not at all mine aswell | 09:53 |
| outbackwifi | slimm: when you right click on the nm, is wireless enabled? | 09:54 |
| trav | What distro you on/? | 09:54 |
| `TonY | SliMM, NetworkManager is good, but i would use wicd instead | 09:54 |
| praetorian_069 | i started using ubuntu today and i am having a hell of a time installing the video card driver | 09:54 |
| SliMM | outbackwifi: oh... the shame... it wasn't (though i don't remember disabeling it) | 09:55 |
| outbackwifi | praetorian_069: i dontt suppose you have an nvidia card | 09:55 |
| * outbackwifi rests his case | 09:55 | |
| ShitalLin | outbackwifi: but i installed openoffice and i tried to execute a binary "javaldx" in /usr/bin/openoffice/program/ it says Could not found JRE | 09:55 |
| `TonY | praetorian_069, lspci | grep VGA | 09:55 |
| praetorian_069 | noooooooo i have an ati 1650 | 09:55 |
| Slack | Does anyone know how or where to get Gtkmozembed | 09:55 |
| outbackwifi | ShitalLin: jre is not required for normal usage; it is essential if you need to use macros and such; why did you try to execute javaldx? | 09:56 |
| Oprtz | when i want to change the screen resoultion from 1280 X 1024 to 1024 X 768, the screen start flickering, what is the soultion for this kind of problem ? | 09:56 |
| `TonY | praetorian_069, try sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg-video-ati | 09:56 |
| rummy | outbackwifi, can you help me? | 09:56 |
| outbackwifi | !ask|rummy | 09:56 |
| ubottu | rummy: 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. :-) | 09:56 |
| SliMM | outbackwifi: well, thanks, I never would have checked that | 09:56 |
| nnull | Oprtz¬ how many hertz your running | 09:56 |
| outbackwifi | SliMM: yw | 09:56 |
| Oprtz | 60 hz | 09:56 |
| nnull | Oprtz¬ screen refresh rate would be your culprit | 09:56 |
| rummy | outbackwifi, I pasted output of dmesg, did you see it? | 09:57 |
| ShitalLin | because if i try ooffice command it says not found | 09:57 |
| trav | Does anybody know how i can take a table from .pdf and put in excel/? | 09:57 |
| nnull | Oprtz¬ or maybe you have a old monitor? | 09:57 |
| outbackwifi | rummy: nope, can you post the url please? i was busy shutting down | 09:57 |
| trav | im trying to formulate an equation from it | 09:57 |
| Oprtz | nnull: so i change to 70 or 80 hz? | 09:57 |
| outbackwifi | trav: this is an ubuntu channel; excel does not natively run on ubuntu | 09:57 |
| `TonY | ShitalLin, try openoffice command | 09:57 |
| rummy | http://paste.ubuntu.com/62415/ | 09:58 |
| nnull | Oprtz¬ the lower the better, then work ure way up as high as you can before it begins flickering | 09:58 |
| nnull | Oprtz¬ you want high hertz, but your monitor maybe does allow it | 09:58 |
| nnull | doesnt* | 09:58 |
| outbackwifi | rummy: youve inserted a 1GB stick right? | 09:58 |
| outbackwifi | rummy: what is the filesystem on the stick? | 09:59 |
| nnull | Oprtz¬ 60hertz on any of the resolutions you listed should work even on the older monitors | 09:59 |
| Oprtz | nnull: i have 2 users, 1 user can run on the same 1024X768 on 60hz without problem, but when i want to change the resoution for 2nd user, the screen start flickering | 09:59 |
| nnull | Oprtz¬ it would be that when u change the resolution the hertz changes, or your monitor doesnt support that resolution | 09:59 |
| outbackwifi | rummy: ahem | 10:00 |
| rummy | FAT | 10:00 |
| Oprtz | i had the same problem with the 1st user, in the very same channel, one guy told me some sudo apt get command and that works for me :) | 10:00 |

| outbackwifi | byhoo: if you press ctl+alt+rightarrow, your desktop should change | 10:07 |
| nnull | how does ubuntu dvd ripping stand against say dvdshrink for windows etc, can ubuntu do everything you can do in windows for that? what i mean is like are there good programs for ubuntu like dvdshrink? | 10:08 |
| methods | nnull: i dont think anyone in here would support this but you can run dvdshrinki through wine | 10:08 |
| ziroday | nnull: yes, take a look at dvd::rip, acidrip and ogmrip | 10:08 |
| dr_willis | nnull, - most use mencoder to transcode the dvd to avi or whatever.. in fact many of the tools i see under wiujndows use mencoder I belive.. | 10:08 |
| byhoo | yes it can jump to anther Desktop but I can't change the number | 10:09 |
| dr_willis | Theres 'ripping a dvd to avi' then theres 'taking a dvd and making it smaller to dvd format' :) | 10:09 |
| outbackwifi | byhoo: if you tweak ccsm then you can add as many desktops as you want | 10:09 |

| foges_ | hey guys. I am using PuTTy and have an ubuntu server set up (with ssh). I connect fine, but i dont know how to copy files over in either direction, i tries using scp, but i firstly dont know my current directory on my local machine (with PuTTy) and i dont know from where to where i am copying with scp | 10:13 |
| Oprtz | nnull: i m back! | 10:14 |
| Guest84286 | hey guys - i want to do a general shout out - nice job on PPC ubuntu | 10:14 |
| dr_willis | foges_, you may want to check out the winscp tool for windows.. it makes copying files back/forht easy | 10:14 |
| nnull | Oprtz¬ yay! :x ;) | 10:14 |
| Oprtz | nnull: :) | 10:14 |
| Wutz | Hi, my metacity icons (Minimize, Close, Maximize) got switched from right to left after installing a theme, this is really annoying and I can't find out how to switch them back. | 10:14 |
| nnull | foges_¬ use sftp | 10:14 |
| Oprtz | can i pm u for a short period of time? | 10:14 |
| gregge | dr_willis: Sounds great.. But my greatest concern is actually if they have proper support for my gfx card gf 8400... But I doubt the ubuntu-team can do anything about that :/ | 10:14 |
| dr_willis | foges_, you could just give the full path when copying stuff also | 10:14 |
| dr_willis | gregge, no idea. My 8800gtsxxx works fine | 10:14 |
| nnull | ok | 10:15 |
| trav | Anybody know how i can put a table from pdf into OOorg Calc/? | 10:15 |
| Guest84286 | so the big question is _ how do I find the hookers and action on IRC? you guys did a nice job of making this work | 10:15 |

| nnull | joaopinto¬ i know this | 10:17 |

| scurl | recently my computer just started randomly dropping from the network, only it says it's still connected. i installed wicd and it still happens, but at least i can hit the isconnect and then connect button and it works again. can anyone help me with finding out whats up with that? | 10:18 |
| Guest84286 | ok - cool | 10:18 |
| cloud-e | YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!! | 10:18 |
| cloud-e | hehehhehehehe | 10:19 |
| cloud-e | weeeeeeeeeeee | 10:19 |
| FloodBot2 | cloud-e: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 10:19 |
| cloud-e | Okay sorry to flood the room with my happiness. | 10:19 |
| foges_ | dr_willis: so if i do: scp /home/foges/hi.txt c:\hi.txt , PuTTy will be able to interpret that i want to copy from the remote server to my local computer? | 10:19 |
| cloud-e | Sound on! | 10:19 |
| cloud-e | Nikolam, Tony! Thank you both! | 10:19 |
| [admin] | cloud-e, most welcome | 10:19 |
| dr_willis | foges_, no idea. try it and see.. putty is not a ssh server i thought it was just a client. | 10:19 |
| nikolam | cloud-e, We are all preased it worked for you :) | 10:20 |
| joaopinto | foges: scp copies between paths, ever local, or remote using ssh, it does not allow you to copy a file from a server on a putty session to your local system | 10:20 |
| joaopinto | foges_, for that you need to use an scp/sftp capable client | 10:20 |
| foges_ | dr_wllis, yeah im just using it as my ssh client on my windows computer. ill give it a try | 10:21 |
| cloud-e | Awesome.. okay so I disabled my onboard card on the bios and started Ubuntu up and nearly gave myself a heart attack with the speakers being so loud! | 10:21 |
| cloud-e | :) | 10:21 |
| joaopinto | foges_, use filezilla or winscp | 10:21 |
| [admin] | foges_, search for winscp | 10:21 |
| Some_ux | I have a bit of a problem, most of the help i find for ubuntu management is GUI based. but I run everything in commandline. I need some help in how to setup a hdcp and routing (with firewall) | 10:21 |
| foges_ | jaoipinto, ok, ill use winscp then, thanks. | 10:21 |
| cloud-e | Nikolam, I do do that command you gave me to create that sound file. Both of you were awesome! How much do I owe you guys? :p | 10:22 |
| Daremonai | how can i send the 'end of file' in echo? (inside a makefile) I want to do: echo "1 2 3" | ./a.out where a.out takes 1 stdin input. so it should run 3 times, with 1 2 3 and then stop running | 10:22 |
| nikolam | cloud-e, you own us that you will help, too someone else, sometimes :) | 10:22 |
| cloud-e | Nikolam, that sounds like a plan. I am a Uber Ubuntu noob though :P. | 10:23 |
| === sean is now known as Guest77591 | ||
| [admin] | cloud-e, nikolam is right, you have to share your knowledge :) | 10:23 |
| nikolam | cloud-e, Me too, I use ubuntuforums, mostly ;) | 10:23 |
| [admin] | me 3 | 10:23 |
| [admin] | :P | 10:23 |
| Some_ux | I need a good tutorial on how to setup my ubuntu as a router and dhcp server. The box has two eth ports, but is not connected to a monitor. I use ssh to login remotely. | 10:23 |
| cloud-e | I have another issue accessing my ntfs partition.. let me pastbin | 10:24 |
| cloud-e | lol Tony | 10:24 |
| cloud-e | Something tells me doods are uber smart. | 10:24 |
| cloud-e | :d | 10:24 |
| [admin] | Some_ux, search for iptables chains, and use dhcp3-server | 10:24 |
| byhoo | how can i play QQgame linux | 10:24 |
| cloud-e | you doods | 10:25 |
| Shirakawasuna | hi! I have a friend and installed ubuntu 8.04 on one of their old (not generally in use) laptops a little while ago, now when it boots it can't mount the root partition. I haven't been able to properly do any diagnosis as I didn't have a linux disc with me, but it's claiming to not find /dev/disk/by-uuid/<the uuid for the disk>. Is this a common problem anyone's heard about, so I can be prepared for success or failure when I try | 10:25 |
| Shirakawasuna | again? | 10:25 |
| [admin] | Some_ux, iptables is not easy though , you have to learn alot | 10:25 |
| cloud-e | Ahh its late | 10:25 |
| nikolam | some_ux maybe you could try to use tightvncserver and port forward through ssh to log to is with gui, too? | 10:25 |
| Some_ux | I log from a vista machine, I use putty | 10:25 |
| Shirakawasuna | I've had /dev/disk/by-uuid fail before, I think on a cd-rom drive, so I'm hoping it's a glitch and not a borked HD | 10:25 |
| molgrum | any idea how to play windows media 9 .wma in ubuntu? | 10:26 |
| nikolam | cloud-e, You can use ntfs-3g for that and list partition in /etc/fstab | 10:26 |
| [admin] | Shirakawasuna, use paste.ubuntu.com and paste there your /boot/grub/menu.list | 10:26 |
| andycas | I cant use autocomplete function when i use sudo prefix in terminal. Whats wrong? | 10:26 |
| [admin] | molgrum, mplayer | 10:26 |
| Some_ux | I will look into iptables | 10:27 |
| [admin] | molgrum, with win32 codecs | 10:27 |
| molgrum | [admin]: what package is that? | 10:27 |
| cloud-e | Nikolam, I am not sure how to do that, I am reading this link on how to do it. http://www.arsgeek.com/2006/09/25/ubuntu-tricks-how-to-mount-your-windows-partition-and-make-it-readwritable/ | 10:27 |
| [admin] | andycas, sudo apt-get install bash-completion | 10:27 |
| nikolam | molgrum, with vlc? | 10:27 |
| [admin] | molgrum, sudo apt-get install mplayer | 10:27 |
| Some_ux | Oh, I also installed webmin | 10:28 |
| molgrum | [admin]: i have mplayer installed but it doesn't recognize the format | 10:28 |
| molgrum | nikolam: same thing with vlc | 10:28 |
| [admin] | molgrum, goto mplayer.hu and search for all-xxxxxx-codecs.tar.bz | 10:28 |
| Some_ux | So maybe webmin is a bit more user friendly than iptables ? | 10:28 |
| andycas | [admin]: i have bash-completion, and it works as long as i dont use sudo in front of the command | 10:28 |
| nikolam | cloud-e, you should also install ntfsprogs | 10:28 |
| [admin] | molgrum, through command line, mplayer [media_file] and paste me the error | 10:28 |
| nikolam | cloud-e, that is too old | 10:29 |
| cloud-e | Nikolam? | 10:29 |
| molgrum | [admin]: http://rafb.net/p/YIVRX538.html | 10:29 |
| cloud-e | Should I not follow that tutorial for accessing the ntfs partition, Nikolam? | 10:29 |
| [admin] | andycas, bash-completion doesn't work when using su , though it works using sudo from your regular login, but if it doesn't complete, then the command you're typing is wrong | 10:29 |
| nikolam | cloud-e, all you need to do is install ntfs-3g, ntfs-config and ntfsprogs | 10:29 |
| nikolam | cloud-e, and add partition in /etc/fstab | 10:29 |
| nikolam | i think no | 10:30 |
| cloud-e | hmm | 10:30 |
| cloud-e | Nikolam, let me look those apps up. | 10:30 |
| [admin] | molgrum, it says : Audio: no sound Video: no video, does it really work on other operating systems ? | 10:31 |
| [admin] | molgrum, it seems the file is damaged | 10:31 |
| [admin] | molgrum, could you check the size of the file please | 10:31 |
| molgrum | [admin]: it says something about codecs not available too | 10:31 |
| molgrum | 6,7M squeaky1.wma | 10:31 |
| methods | how do i make a script run when a certain device is plugged in ?? my u727 evdo device comes up as a cdrom1 and i have to eject it so it then reassigns it self... is there perhaps another way? | 10:32 |
| hateball | molgrum☠ It might be one of those wma's with the new wmp11 codec | 10:32 |
| hateball | molgrum☠ Which, there is no decoder for on Linux as of yet | 10:32 |
| molgrum | hmm then maybe that's the case :/ | 10:33 |
| molgrum | so there's nothing i can do? | 10:33 |
| skyviper | How to enable universe and multiverse repos? | 10:33 |
| [admin] | molgrum, wait please im figuring i out | 10:33 |
| andycas | [admin]: no, the command is correct. I use sudo from my normal login. Works fine for my laptop, but not on my server box | 10:33 |
| molgrum | ok thanks | 10:33 |
| outbackwifi | skyviper: in system-administration-software sources | 10:34 |
| [admin] | andycas, please paste the command | 10:34 |
| jags | hi guys, after reading that 'why arn't you there' post for a while | 10:34 |
| joaquinm | hi guys | 10:34 |
| jags | finally i got Xchat | 10:34 |
| icewaterman | i did try to upgrade to 8.10rc but for some reason it only downloads 2 files and then stops | 10:35 |
| joaquinm | does anyone have an ubuntu server for sharing internet with iptables ? i need an advice | 10:35 |
| jags | btw is this the same as #ubuntuforums ?? | 10:35 |
| andycas | [admin]: "sudo apt-get" for example, oh and it doesnt work for package names either - with or without sudo prefix, for example "apt-get install awstats" | 10:35 |
| dr_willis | jags, not really | 10:35 |
| skyviper | outbackwifi I am there, but don't see any repos called that way or at least any list? | 10:35 |
| Shirakawasuna | [admin]: I can't right now, I don't have access to their computer. | 10:35 |
| jags | oops | 10:35 |
| vinanti | hello I Have a strange problem with my bluetooth connection. I have a nokia3230 handset i run internet from that handset but my lenovo n3000 laptop does not get the internet through the bluetooth on the handset | 10:35 |
| outbackwifi | joaquinm: use the default firewall.rc script on the iptables home page | 10:35 |
| tyler | hey whats the name of the default vnc client that comes with ubuntu...under internet section? | 10:35 |
| Shirakawasuna | [admin]: I can get into the initramfs | 10:35 |
| rohan | i want to install ubuntu from an usb pen drive, without burning a CD. how do i do that? | 10:36 |
| Shirakawasuna | (not immediately available, of course) | 10:36 |
| Shirakawasuna | rohan: there are guides, but I *think* you only need to copy the files over to the usb drive and make sure your computer can boot from usb. | 10:36 |
| dr_willis | rohan, i use that 'unetbootin' tool to make a bootable usb stick from a iso image. | 10:36 |
| skyviper | outbackwifi I am there, but don't see any repos called that way or at least any list? | 10:36 |
| outbackwifi | skyviper: options 2 and 4 have universe and multiverse in brackets | 10:36 |
| dr_willis | rohan, it makes it easy. | 10:36 |
| rohan | Shirakawasuna: there is no straight forward way, like fedora has? i think this was supposed to be one of the goals of intrepid ibex | 10:37 |
| vinanti | my version of ubuntu is 8.04 and i am trying to connect to gprs from my laptop via bluetooth | 10:37 |
| [admin] | Shirakawasuna, just when u r there, use the e key for edit, and instead of root=label=.... or root=UUID=.... use root=/dev/sdxx where sdxx is the correct root | 10:37 |
| tyler | rohan: yes unetbootin has worked for me everytime | 10:37 |
| axel_s | hi, is it possible to change the priority of a running process? | 10:37 |
| tyler | whats the name of the vnc client that is installed by default with ubuntu? | 10:37 |
| outbackwifi | axel_s: yes use renice | 10:37 |
| axel_s | outbackwifi, thanks | 10:37 |
| joaquinm | outbackwifi, im trying to do something, but i was googling a lot but i really couldnt find info about that, i want to limit the bandwidth for some computers but in a smart way for example limit the bandwidht to like 256kbps but if nobodyelse is using the internet assing like the total bandwidth | 10:37 |
| Shirakawasuna | rohan: I'm not up on my ubuntu, sorry :). The others have better answers. | 10:37 |
| outbackwifi | tyler: vino | 10:37 |
| magnetron | tyler→ vinaegre or similar | 10:37 |
| magnetron | outbackwifi→ it was changed in hardy | 10:38 |
| outbackwifi | joaquinm: use wondershaper to do that | 10:38 |
| outbackwifi | magnetron: oh ok didnt notice :) | 10:38 |
| skyviper | outbackwifi and one more quest: I don't have deb command. How to get it? | 10:38 |
| Shirakawasuna | [admin]: indeed | 10:38 |
| rohan | ok, but unetbootin is not an official ubuntu tool right? there is no "official" way to do it? | 10:38 |
| outbackwifi | skyviper: no one has; deb is the extension of the package files | 10:38 |
| joaquinm | outbackwifi, is that the best option ? | 10:38 |
| icewaterman | what does this mean: update-manager -d | 10:38 |
| icewaterman | extracting 'intrepid.tar.gz' | 10:38 |
| icewaterman | authenticate 'intrepid.tar.gz' against 'intrepid.tar.gz.gpg'? | 10:38 |
| tyler | yes vinagre...thank you magnetron | 10:38 |
| Shirakawasuna | rohan: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromUSBStick | 10:38 |
| icewaterman | then it simply terminates update-manager | 10:38 |
| skyviper | outbackwifi thanks for answrs. | 10:39 |
| outbackwifi | icewaterman: for one thing, it means you are in the wrong channel | 10:39 |
| outbackwifi | !intrepid| icewaterman | 10:39 |

| jags | does any1 know any remote connecting for a laptop? recently there was a news article on Slashdot.. if a lappy gets stolen you can login remotely | 10:39 |
| CaptainMorgan | nikolam, I like the alternate cd... wow... thank you for this... I like specifically setting things like this... and surprisingly, RAID was super easy to set up. Cheers. | 10:39 |
| jags | remotley connetcting software | 10:39 |
| tyler | jags: just install some kind of vnc server and have it run as a process... | 10:40 |
| [admin] | molgrum, download this http://www.mplayerhq.hu/MPlayer/releases/codecs/essential-20071007.tar.bz2 extract the bz2, sudo mkdir /usr/lib/win32/ , move everything extracted in tht directory, and try playing it again | 10:40 |

| outbackwifi | jags: you mean if someone stole my laptop which had windows on it, and they installed ubuntu on it, i could still login remotely? | 10:41 |
| jags | but then how u log in to it without any input from a lppy side | 10:41 |
| tyler | jags, as far as logging in you would have to know the ip so nevermind that wouldnt work | 10:41 |
| === marko_ is now known as marko-_- | ||
| nikolam | CaptainMorgan, Glad you could make it . I always use alternate to install, cheers :) | 10:41 |
| tyler | apple makes some great apps for that | 10:41 |
| molgrum | [admin]: will try, thanks! | 10:41 |
| jags | @ outbackwifi: no if they format obviously it won't work | 10:41 |
| * outbackwifi thinks steve jobs is an evil witch | 10:41 | |

| jags | yea, but not the dummies, i guess as a laptop owner caught thieg exactly that way. it was in NYTimes and slashdot | 10:43 |
| === francesco is now known as Guest82295 | ||
| outbackwifi | jags: well good for them, so whats the question about ubuntu again? | 10:43 |
| jags | there was a long discussion on /. but no one new how to solve the IP problem | 10:43 |
| vinanti | hello any one who could help me solve my bluetooth problem? I can't access my gprs internet from my laptop via bluetooth. | 10:44 |
| jags | is there a vnc software can do that | 10:44 |
| molgrum | [admin]: same problem still :( | 10:44 |
| Arvan | Can anyone tell me what this means??..The computer iis runing fine...but i cant ad or remove apps... E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem. | 10:44 |

| tyler | hey this is in my exports file on my server...how would i modify it from just one ip to all ips? /media/television 192.168.1.52(rw,no_root_squash,async) | 10:46 |
| ubottu | Ab3L: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu! | 10:46 |
| outbackwifi | tyler: by putting a wildcard? | 10:46 |
| [admin] | molgrum, try searching for ffmpeg wmv9 to flv or to anything you want | 10:46 |
| [admin] | molgrum, this might help | 10:46 |
| nmh-j2graw | jags: however you please. One example would involve a webserver wtih a very small file and a script on the laptop that fetches it every so often. | 10:46 |
| Ziggyzxxyl | my printer stopped responding. If I try to cancel a job it says "CUPS server error There was an error during the CUPS operation: 'client-error-not-possible'." | 10:46 |
| tyler | outbackwifi: a wildcard | 10:47 |
| axel_s | hi, my flash video performance in FF browser is very jerky, full screen is not usable at all... e.g. youtube | 10:47 |
| axel_s | what could I do about that? | 10:47 |
| outbackwifi | tyler: yes | 10:47 |
| jags | @ nmh is there a guide or something a newbee can look at, plz | 10:47 |
| CaptainMorgan | nikolam, is it normal for the base system installation to fail? I'm assuming no... | 10:47 |
| Ziggyzxxyl | switched the computer and printer off and it still says "processing" .. the printer is totally lifeless and the activity light on the printer is not flashing or anything | 10:48 |
| Ziggyzxxyl | it was working a couple of days ago | 10:48 |
| tyler | outbackwifi: could you be a little more decriptive...couldnt i just go like 192.168.1.52-57 or something so it would allow from 52-57 to connect? | 10:48 |
| outbackwifi | Ziggyzxxyl: if you switched both off, what says processing? | 10:48 |
| mopped | How can I install the divx plugin for firefox on ubuntu? | 10:48 |
| djcb_ | does anyone know where the debug kernel images have gone for intrepid (2.6.27)? | 10:49 |
| Ziggyzxxyl | outbackwifi: under system > admin > Printers and printer status | 10:49 |
| nmh-j2graw | jags: I don't know of any offhand. If you want to set this up, you need to figure out how to get all the parts, and then just put them together. Do you have a public webserver? | 10:49 |
| jags | no | 10:49 |
| outbackwifi | tyler: you can do this --> The host may also be specified using an IP address range in the form address/netmask | 10:49 |
| jags | thnks nmh | 10:50 |
| nmh-j2graw | maybe you can setup your computer to send an email to you (if you can stand it) | 10:50 |
| outbackwifi | Ziggyzxxyl: on another PC which was still on when these two were switched off? | 10:50 |
| jags | ok and how can i setup that | 10:50 |
| [admin] | tyler, what is the subnetmask of your desired IP range ? | 10:51 |
| nikolam | CaptainMorgan, No, it is not :) Something is wrong there.. Did you check your CD and is it installing on clean partition? | 10:51 |

| === papatrexas is now known as ntinos_ | ||

| Ziggyzxxyl | outbackwifi: it won't let me open the error log. | 10:58 |
| nmh-j2graw | Thedjatclubrock: you have an AFS server or you want one? | 10:58 |
| outbackwifi | Ziggyzxxyl: do a sudo tail -f /var/log/cups/error_log in a terminal while you try to print | 10:59 |

| [admin] | with ii ? | 10:59 |
| [admin] | cloud-e, use this mkdir /media/usb , sudo mount -t ntfs-3g -o force /dev/sdxx /media/usb, and wait for messages, when it finishes, it should be on ur desktop | 10:59 |
| [admin] | sudo mkdir /media/usb though | 10:59 |
| russo | i got a quick question, could someone tell me what to search for in google? Basically i have an RTL8111/8168B and i want to compile the module from source to allow me to use jumboframes (not working atm).

| [admin] | sorry, i was lagged | 10:59 |
| cloud-e | Outback, it mounted 20GB partition but not my 100GB partition | 10:59 |
| nmh-j2graw | Thedjatclubrock: have you already tried all the openafs-* packages? | 11:00 |
| Ziggyzxxyl | outbackwifi: also in the CUPS browser control panel page it is asking me for a username/password for everything... | 11:00 |
| Thedjatclubrock | No, as I was wondering which were servers, and which were clients. Also, I want kerberos support | 11:00 |
| nmh-j2graw | Thedjatclubrock: haha, well iirc, it has gotten better recently. Really, you want the servers AND the client on your server (for testing if nothing else). Do you already have a kdc? | 11:01 |
| Thedjatclubrock | KDC = Kerberos server part? | 11:02 |
| Thedjatclubrock | I will in sec | 11:02 |
| [admin] | cloud-e, did it work for you ? | 11:02 |
| Ziggyzxxyl | outbackwifi: here is the tail stub of my error log - http://paste.ubuntu.com/62433/ | 11:02 |
| nmh-j2graw | Thedjatclubrock: depending on what you want to do, you have various options. You could use the kaserver (afs kerberos, basically), or you could use a separate kdc (say mit, himdal, etc..) | 11:02 |
| cloud-e | Crap... how do I umm... check to see all the partitions on my system? What Nikolam helped me do and Outbacks suggestion to do the -0 Force command published a 20GB partition but not the one with all the files. So I am thinking these steps need to be done to my 100GB partition, I just dont know how to find out where it is? | 11:03 |
| outbackwifi | cloud-e: sudo fdisk -l should list all partitions | 11:03 |
| CaptainMorgan | nope, bad cd... shooot | 11:03 |
| [admin] | yup | 11:03 |
| Thedjatclubrock | nmh-j2graw: MIT sounds good. I'd like to add LDAP/Kerberos lofin lter too. | 11:03 |
| Thedjatclubrock | login later* | 11:03 |
| nmh-j2graw | Thedjatclubrock: I am unfamiliar with using the kaserver for anything but afs (are little at that). I have used heimdal for afs, there is a bit of setup, but if you are doing kerberos (or afs) you should be ready for that. | 11:03 |
| Thedjatclubrock | Sure :) | 11:04 |

| outbackwifi | Ziggyzxxyl: that looks bad; what did you do just before everything stopped working? | 11:04 |
| [Michelangelo] | is there a troubleshoot? | 11:04 |
| nmh-j2graw | Thedjatclubrock: you can use the kaserver for logins, I think - but that is about it. | 11:05 |
| [Michelangelo] | exists a irc channel about system configuration? | 11:05 |
| outbackwifi | [Michelangelo]: unless you know the problem how will you troubleshoot | 11:05 |
| nmh-j2graw | Thedjatclubrock: what are you trying to setup, if you don't mind my prying? | 11:05 |
| Ziggyzxxyl | outbackwifi: ok - I worked out the CUPS browser control panel wants my root password. I cleared the funky print job from the queue and the printer sprang back to life... I just tried to print a 300dpi 210mmx297mm image - that is what choked it. | 11:05 |

| Reanmachine | what's a small lightweight x-based text editor like gedit but not gnome dependant? | 12:33 |
| Reanmachine | (using fluxbox) | 12:33 |
| [admin] | Reanmachine, vim | 12:33 |
| Reanmachine | that's not x-enabled | 12:33 |
| dr_willis | Reanmachine, i like geany. but its not real small.. but its smallish | 12:33 |
| dr_willis | :) | 12:33 |
| dr_willis | there is gvim. | 12:33 |
| Reanmachine | isn't that gnome-dependant? | 12:33 |
| dr_willis | look through the package manager for editor and try them out. | 12:33 |
| dr_willis | gtk is not really gnome. :) then again so what... | 12:34 |
| TuniX12 | Reanmachine: gtk dependent | 12:34 |
| Reanmachine | ah | 12:34 |
| [admin] | Reanmachine, gvim | 12:34 |
| Reanmachine | kk | 12:34 |
| dr_willis | so what if it was. :) | 12:34 |
| favro | Reanmachine: I use mousepad and scite in fluxbox | 12:34 |
| dr_willis | scite is nice. | 12:34 |
| dr_willis | fte is nice - if a little odd... | 12:34 |
| dr_willis | I imagine a lot would depend on what sort of editing you are going to do. | 12:34 |
| favro | most valid point ^^ | 12:35 |
| dr_willis | geany has some very nice features.. but in the long run - it pays to learn vim | 12:36 |

| flishlee | who are you | 12:50 |
| [admin] | spearone, for safe use, during installation use another account and create one when you use your new copy | 12:50 |

| keph | I mean, phpmyadmin sucks balls, so there's that, but I see there's a milion alternatives for linux, gtk or otherwise | 12:51 |
| [admin] | spearone, no, once you create the new user, it will use the home directory by its name | 12:51 |

| TuniX12 | QQ? the messenger? | 12:54 |
| Spyder | good morning everyone | 12:55 |
| ziroday | ubutom: add & disown to the end of the command, you will then be able to exit the shell and the script/program will continue to run | 12:56 |
| flam | run it background with & | 12:56 |
| georgeaf | anyone good in serial programming ? i need him to write a prog or a script for me | 12:56 |
| nmh-j2graw | ubutom: you can run the script in the background, or you can have the script run the command in the background. | 12:56 |
| flam | ./somescript & | 12:56 |
| erki | ubutom: The command "bg" might be useful, but you could probably get away with doing "vlc /home/tom/music &" | 12:56 |
| ubutom | ah, okay, will try that, many thanks | 12:56 |
| spearone | ubutom , perhaps appending nohup to the command will help? | 12:57 |

| ziroday | RanyAlbeg: basically there are many many different components in this theme. There is the gtk section which handles how stuff looks inside a window | 13:16 |
| ubottu | b00n: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..." Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out? | 13:16 |
| b00n | This network requires encryption to be enabled. | 13:16 |
| rabez | I installed mplayer for svn but it's in the wrong directory, can I just link it to where it's supposed to be? | 13:17 |
| ziroday | RanyAlbeg: there is the metacity/emerald themes which handle the window decorations (that part around the window where the minimize/maximise/close buttons are) | 13:17 |
| b00n | i get this error with wicd trying to connect to a wpa wireless network | 13:17 |
| ziroday | RanyAlbeg: there are screenlets which are similar to gadgets in vista but require a program to be installed to run | 13:17 |
| ansichart | Ugh, I still can't figure it out... I need to disable Xfce from starting up when my computer boots | 13:17 |
| erki | b00n: Next to the network you're trying to connect to, press the arrow pointing right and enter the WPA key | 13:17 |
| ziroday | RanyAlbeg: there is a gdm theme which defines how the login window looks | 13:18 |
| ziroday | RanyAlbeg: and finally there is a fix for firefox and dark themes :) | 13:18 |
| RanyAlbeg | ziroday: i see :P | 13:18 |
| RanyAlbeg | ziroday: brb | 13:18 |
| ziroday | RanyAlbeg: thats basically a breakdown of what the theme pack contains and it is designed for you to be able to completely replicate how the screenshot looks | 13:18 |

| capunk_suze | help me please....i has connected to network with mobile phone, but mozilla can't work... | 13:23 |
| ziroday | RanyAlbeg: you shouldn't need to do make install however I have seen some themes recommend you do that. However those are usually for whole experience changes. You should be very wary of having to make install anything. Espicially a theme. Installation mainly works by you dragging the theme in the appearances window | 13:23 |
| davidnog | thank you :) | 13:23 |

| ziroday | chatman: kino is a kde application, however it runs absolutely fine under gnome and any other DE | 13:29 |

| b00n | it said, wrong password | 13:31 |
| erki | bingungaja: What laptop model are you using? | 13:31 |
| b00n | so i switched back to windows to make sure, it was the right password | 13:31 |
| b00n | but it was right afterall | 13:31 |
| outbackwifi | tanto_: yw | 13:31 |
| b00n | and keeps saying bad password | 13:31 |
| bingungaja | erki : benq s41-455 | 13:31 |
| erki | b00n: Hmm, have you tried any of the other WPA options? | 13:31 |
| erki | b00n: And also try to retype the password, doublechecking any tricky characters like l I and 0 O | 13:32 |
| Ujjwol | hey does ubuntu support labelflash this is one thing that stops me from switching to ubuntu | 13:33 |
| b00n | after typing it 5 times i get this message erki: | 13:33 |
| outbackwifi | Ujjwol: whats labelflash | 13:33 |
| RanyAlbeg | I like themes!!!! :D | 13:33 |
| bingungaja | ujjwol : one thing that ubuntu make me disappointed is i can play lots of games :P | 13:33 |

| bingungaja | ujjwol : one thing that ubuntu make me disappointed is i can't play lots of games :P | 13:34 |
| erki | bingungaja: I can't find any specific app for your model, sorry. There might be a more generic app, do some searches in Synaptic | 13:34 |
| erki | b00n: Hmm, that error message looks bad.... | 13:34 |
| b00n | thats after i typed the password 3 times | 13:34 |
| bingungaja | erki : it's ok, thx for ur effort :) | 13:35 |
| b00n | i had the same issue using standard network manager | 13:35 |
| [admin] | outbackwifi, i check labelflash.jp, it is a cover design application for cds | 13:35 |
| ziroday | Ujjwol: you can supposedly run the LabelFlash Index Maker in wine and it runs very well | 13:35 |
| b00n | thats why i installed wicd | 13:35 |
| outbackwifi | b00n: you need to type your normal user password there; use the WPA passphrase inside the dialog box | 13:35 |
| b00n | ow lol | 13:35 |
| outbackwifi | [admin]: oh ok | 13:35 |
| cambazz | hello. where is the xorg.conf file located | 13:36 |

| cambazz | [admin]: thanks. i am trying to get dualscreen going on ati card, but no luck so far | 13:38 |
| erki | cambazz: It might be autogenerated by ubuntu | 13:38 |
| outbackwifi | cambazz: you need xrandr for that; try grandr | 13:38 |
| b00n | ow yeah, i clicked scripts :S | 13:38 |
| cambazz | outbackwifi: i need what? | 13:38 |
| tj13820 | would it be possible to get a driver looked at? | 13:38 |
| ariqs | thanks guys, although I got 3 separate answers ;P | 13:38 |
| outbackwifi | !xrandr | 13:39 |
| ubottu | XRandR 1.2 is the new method of running dual screens in !X. Information/HowTo here: http://wiki.debian.org/XStrikeForce/HowToRandR12 | 13:39 |
| ziroday | tj13820: what do you mean looked at? | 13:39 |
| b00n | outbackwifi , i was in the wrong screen. But now i used wpa 1/2 and it connects to the network, but stucks on authenticating and then won't connect | 13:39 |
| tj13820 | ziroday: my printer - lexmark x1240 will not work no matter what i try. I have a driver installed but it does not work | 13:40 |
| outbackwifi | b00n: are you using nm or wicd? | 13:40 |
| b00n | wicd | 13:40 |
| outbackwifi | b00n: never used wicd myself so cant help there | 13:40 |
| b00n | but nm wasn't working either, keeps asking for a pass | 13:40 |
| ziroday | tj13820: okay, I have no idea about printers. Sorry :) | 13:40 |
| outbackwifi | b00n: nm works like a charm | 13:40 |
| tj13820 | ziroday: kk :) | 13:40 |
| rabez | mplayer uses the w32codecsto play .rm files, the same functionality is provided to gstreamer apps through the pitfdll gstreamer plugin | 13:40 |
| b00n | let me de-install wicd again then :\ | 13:41 |
| outbackwifi | tj13820: what error does your cups error log throw up? pastebin it | 13:41 |
| Ujjwol | outbackwifi, does ubuntu support labelflash | 13:41 |
| outbackwifi | Ujjwol: someone already replied to that; pl scroll and see. it does not run on ubuntu natively, you might get it to run via wine | 13:42 |
| tj13820 | outbackwifi: it doesn't i think. It just won't spool. I hit print... and nothing. | 13:42 |
| tanto_ | i need learn more about terminal command, any link ? | 13:42 |
| flam | what command? | 13:42 |
| tj13820 | outbackwifi: i've even tried to install another driver for it. | 13:42 |
| flam | command --help | 13:42 |
| flam | man command | 13:42 |
| flam | whatis command | 13:42 |
| outbackwifi | tj13820: ubuntu has drivers for most common printers | 13:42 |
| erki | info command | 13:42 |
| tj13820 | outbackwifi: this is as common as it gets. but i've read on hundreds of forums that it won't work | 13:43 |
| outbackwifi | can you pastebin your cups error log? it is in /var/log/cups/error_log | 13:43 |
| cambazz | ok, xrandr is running and i got dual screen but clone | 13:44 |
| outbackwifi | tj13820: the last 10 lines would suffice | 13:44 |
| cambazz | how can i make get another screen thats an exention | 13:44 |
| outbackwifi | cambazz: use grandr to change from clone to extend | 13:44 |
| peter_g | hi guys, I am using pulse audio, and I want teamspeak to to, in settings, where you can choose your sound driver, there is an option where it says "other" and in it is a text field where it has "/dev/dsp", how shall I edit "/dev/dsp" so it uses pulseaudio? | 13:44 |

| ariqs | i got mplayer and the .rm still won't play. it plays the audio, but no video | 13:45 |

| b00n | i think wicd did that for me | 13:45 |
| outbackwifi | b00n: so might be a good idea to install it again eh? | 13:45 |
| b00n | how can i have internet without a network manager? | 13:45 |

| tj13820 | Vinconzo: get more ram. | 13:51 |
| ziroday | Vinconzo: you can try entertainer, xbmc or elisa as an alternative. However none of those are terribly lightweight | 13:51 |
| Vinconzo | thx | 13:52 |
| * outbackwifi feels its criminal to run mythtv on 256MB | 13:52 | |
| tj13820 | Vinconzo: np | 13:52 |
| b00n | well rebooting didnt help either | 13:52 |

| peter_g | how do I sort this out? | 13:59 |
| Algyz | Interesting thing with resolutions. Login window was too big, I changed "Virtual" section in /etc/X11/xorg.conf into 800x600, then login window is okay. Another problem appeared - impossible to change resolution to a higher, then 800x600. When "Virtual" 1024x768, then screen resolution good, but login window tooo big :) | 14:00 |

| rparish | mount /dev/sdb1 /media/harddrive | 14:32 |
| rparish | mount: mount point /media/harddrive does not exist | 14:32 |
| LjL | qstnn: i suspect the list is built in, since i don't see it in gconf | 14:32 |
| graft | rparish: sudo mkdir /media/harddrive | 14:32 |
| rparish | hmm | 14:33 |
| LjL | qstnn: but no, it's not built in, because i can't find city names inside the executable, either... let me look better | 14:34 |
| qstnn | LjL: I found something http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=653146&highlight=weather+applet+city | 14:35 |
| sandstrom | What port are hostname lookups run on? 53, right? | 14:35 |
| outbackwifi | sandstrom: only on the server | 14:35 |
| qstnn | LjL: The post says: /usr/share/libgweather/Locations.xml has cities in-built. | 14:36 |
| _polto_ | anybody working on mplayer package for ubuntu here ? | 14:37 |
| zhulong | hello | 14:37 |
| saykou | can i install in a usb pen drive ubuntu and run true it ? | 14:37 |
| qstnn | LjL: That file is freezing my C2D 3GB machine. Someone surely had a good idea to have such a unwieldly file. | 14:37 |
| jlewis | ok, I used "sudo bash" to switch to root, but I still can't install Parallels Tools, it still says "you must be root to run this script" | 14:37 |
| nnull | sudo | 14:38 |
| nnull | kgo | 14:38 |
| nnull | oh lol | 14:38 |
| LjL | qstnn: ah, that file belogs to libgweather-common... i was looking in libgweather1 | 14:38 |
| LjL | qstnn: but it loaded reasonably fast even in nano for me | 14:39 |
| recon69 | jlewis: try just putting sudo in front of the command that runs the script. | 14:39 |
| qstnn | Try finding/replacing. | 14:39 |
| qstnn | LjL ^ | 14:39 |
| LjL | qstnn: yes, that takes longer ;) | 14:39 |
| jlewis | I was trying to run from the GUI | 14:39 |
| qstnn | LjL: Google has made all of us whine :) | 14:39 |
| outbackwifi | 14:40 | |
| ubottu | google is the helpers' friend; many newer users dont have the google-fu yet; For GNU/Linux: http://google.com/linux | 14:40 |
| GaMbi_DK | iw downloaded gmountiso.. there is a thing called "mounting point" what should this be? :S | 14:40 |
| EyesOfARaven | is there a way to install the gnome panel from the netbook remix on normal ubuntu? | 14:40 |
| sandstrom | outbackwifi: the server as in my server? or the responses from the dns-server? | 14:41 |
| outbackwifi | GaMbi_DK: any place on your filesystem; generally under /media; so you could create a mountpoint using mkdir /media/myisofile | 14:41 |
| recon69 | jlewis: the CLI is your friend , it not hard to use it and it can do things your GUI cannot | 14:41 |
| LjL | qstnn: ok, so anyway it works by airport ICAO code like all the others. need to add <location><name xml:lang="en">Cityname</name><code>ICAOCODE</code><coordinates>xx-xxN xxx-xxE</coordinates></location> | 14:41 |
| outbackwifi | sandstrom: the dns server would listen to requests on port 53 | 14:41 |
| LjL | coordinates might be optional | 14:41 |
| jlewis | right recon69 | 14:41 |
| jlewis | I'm trying | 14:41 |
| GaMbi_DK | thx outbackwifi | 14:42 |
| zzznn | hi | 14:42 |
| qstnn | LjL: This is scary. Let me try :( | 14:42 |
| outbackwifi | GaMbi_DK: thank me when it works | 14:42 |
| sandstrom | outbackwifi: I have enabled inbound and outbound packets on port 53 (both udp and tcp) in my firewall. Still I can't do hostname lookups when the firewall is enabled. | 14:42 |
| recon69 | jlewis: so open a terminal , CD to the dir your script is in then "sudo scriptname" | 14:42 |
| sandstrom | Any clue on what might be wrong? | 14:42 |
| LjL | qstnn: just put "airportname icao code" in google for the code | 14:42 |
| LjL | or use wikipedia | 14:42 |
| outbackwifi | sandstrom: you should be able to track connection blocks in your syslog | 14:42 |
| qstnn | LjL: I looked up another city in the list. It doesn't have this ICAO code. I might get lucky. | 14:43 |
| outbackwifi | sandstrom: tail -f /var/log/syslog when you are doing a dig www.yahoo.com in another terminal | 14:43 |
| LjL | qstnn: might not need the ICAO in the US, since as far as i can understand, the applet uses a separate mechanism for US cities | 14:43 |
| qstnn | LjL: Decimal coordinates or degree/minutes. | 14:43 |
| jlewis | I thought I knew this better since I used Terminal in OSX but I guess not | 14:44 |
| outbackwifi | qstnn: if you are just visiting that city this one time, just use worldmate live or some such thing :P | 14:44 |
| recon69 | jlewis: cd - change dir , ls - list dir , tab - auto complete | 14:44 |
| zOap | how to free up unused space on ubuntu? | 14:45 |
| qstnn | outbackwifi: I am not passing it by on a train. I am going to_be_there for sometime :) | 14:45 |
| outbackwifi | zOap: if its unused isnt it free? | 14:45 |
| recon69 | zOap: delete the unwanted files | 14:45 |
| LjL | qstnn: minutes, judging from my city | 14:45 |
| neoice | the -generic kernel is both 32 and 64 bit, right? | 14:45 |
| outbackwifi | qstnn: then look up the website of that city | 14:45 |
| jlewis | yeah, I can change directory, but it still won't recognize the command | 14:45 |
| recon69 | jlewis: what command? | 14:46 |
| zzznn | 怎么加入中文频道？ | 14:46 |
| outbackwifi | !cn|zzzznn | 14:46 |
| ubottu | zzzznn: For Ubuntu help in Chinese 您可以访问中文频道： #ubuntu-cn 或者 #ubuntu-tw 或者 #ubuntu-hk | 14:46 |
| jlewis | well I mean, it says command not found | 14:46 |
| zzznn | 谢谢 | 14:46 |
| neoice | the -generic kernel is both 32 and 64 bit, right? can I force it to run 32 over 64? | 14:46 |
| outbackwifi | jlewis: what command? | 14:46 |
| jlewis | i'm in the cdrom0 directory where the script is | 14:46 |
| jlewis | don't I just type the script name to run it? | 14:47 |
| outbackwifi | jlewis: put a dot slash in front of it | 14:47 |
| jlewis | I tried, I'll try again | 14:47 |
| outbackwifi | jlewis: like so --> ./scriptthatfriesmypc | 14:47 |
| jlewis | lord | 14:47 |
| jlewis | finally | 14:47 |
| jlewis | I had to have ./ and the extension | 14:48 |
| === tombar_ is now known as Tombar | ||
| outbackwifi | jlewis: i would imagine so | 14:48 |
| jlewis | sorry | 14:48 |
| Mike | 那里 | 14:48 |
| outbackwifi | jlewis: nifty tip --> press tab for filename completion in the bash shell; saves you the trouble of having to type | 14:49 |
| sandstrom | outbackwifi: dig isn't installed. did hostname www.yahoo.com instead. However, there is nothing in my syslog. | 14:49 |
| LjL | !cn | Mike | 14:49 |
| ubottu | Mike: For Ubuntu help in Chinese 您可以访问中文频道： #ubuntu-cn 或者 #ubuntu-tw 或者 #ubuntu-hk | 14:49 |
| outbackwifi | sandstrom: hostname is not the command for dns lookups | 14:49 |
| jlewis | thanks outback | 14:49 |
| sandstrom | it does something else? on some other port? | 14:49 |
| outbackwifi | sandstrom: its either dig or nslookup ( i think u need to install dns-utils) | 14:50 |
| jlewis | unfortunately I've now run into the compatibility issues I was reading about | 14:50 |
| Thedjatclubrock | Hey guys, I am trying to install kerberos, and I get http://www.pastie.org/300329 | 14:50 |
| Mike | 在玉抱歉 | 14:50 |
| outbackwifi | sandstrom: hostname looks at your systems host name and dns name | 14:50 |
| LjL | outbackwifi: "host" is the command that's installed by default, and afaik recommended | 14:50 |

| K_Ngan | hi all. can anybody help to enable the scroll function of a thinkpad? | 14:50 |
| Erasmus | he said that hes sorry | 14:50 |
| outbackwifi | LjL: that should be directed at sandstrom | 14:51 |
| LjL | sandstrom: "hostname" changes *your computer's* hostname. use it again immediately to reset to your normal hostname, please, or you might incur in problems. | 14:51 |
| Mike | ok, is this better? | 14:51 |
| jlewis | "found xorg 1.4.0; installation for xorg 1.4.0 not found" heh | 14:51 |
| outbackwifi | Mike: certainly for us, yes | 14:52 |
| jing_ | I moved my own account out of all the existing groups, and switched to a new group, which has only restricted privilege. | 14:52 |
| jing_ | There 's only the root account and my account, but I don't know the password of the root, how could I reset the groups of my account? | 14:52 |
| qstnn | LjL: I wonder why it asks for coordinates. If I already provide the ICAO code it should be fine. | 14:52 |
| LjL | jing_: reboot into recovery mode, and do "adduser youraccount admin" | 14:52 |
| sandstrom | LjL: okey, changed it back. Thanks! | 14:52 |
| qstnn | LjL: I mean the whole city is spread over a couple of coordinates. What is the point. | 14:52 |
| Mike | i not speak good | 14:52 |
| jing_ | thanks | 14:52 |
| LjL | qstnn, use arbitrary ones, the applet really couldn't care less about the actual position | 14:53 |
| Thedjatclubrock | Hey guys, I am trying to install kerberos, and I get http://www.pastie.org/300329 | 14:53 |
| LjL | sandstrom: use "host www.whatever" to do DNS lookups | 14:53 |
| veteran | how can i get compiz in kubuntu 8.10 | 14:53 |
| veteran | ? | 14:53 |
| LjL | veteran: it's installed by default, so you have it | 14:53 |
| LjL | !compiz > veteran (veteran, see the private message from Ubotu) | 14:53 |
| ubottu | veteran, please see my private message | 14:53 |
| LjL | veteran: oh sorry, kubuntu | 14:53 |
| neoice | the -generic kernel is both 32 and 64 bit, right? can I force it to run 32 over 64? | 14:54 |
| LjL | veteran: ask in #ubuntu+1, since that's 8.10 | 14:54 |
| qstnn | LjL: The applet is not willing to update itself. I just appended the information at the end of the file, do you think I need to place it in the proper 'region'. | 14:54 |
| Mike | i try to install windows after ubuntu and it says i have no hard disk | 14:54 |
| graingert | neoice: no | 14:54 |
| sandstrom | host yahoo.com still doesn't turnup anything in my syslog. | 14:54 |
| outbackwifi | Mike: you need to do it the other way install windows first and then ubuntu | 14:54 |
| graingert | Mike: it says no blank partitions.... | 14:54 |
| LjL | qstnn: if you didn't put any ICAO code, almost certainly; otherwise, it's still likely. but anyway, you might have to just restart the panel (or remove and readd the applet) for changes to kick in | 14:54 |
| veteran | where i can find it? | 14:54 |
| outbackwifi | sandstrom: did the command return the ip address of yahoo? | 14:55 |
| graingert | Mike: you need to resize your ubuntu partition | 14:55 |
| EyesOfARaven | --- What is the name of the XGL-enabled xserver package? --- | 14:55 |
| Mike | i had windows, then i switched to ubuntu and i am trying to go back | 14:55 |
| Raynes | If you didn't have a hard disk it wouldn't say anything at all >_> | 14:55 |
| graingert | Mike: format your linux drive... | 14:55 |
| LjL | EyesOfARaven: why don't you find out yourself, by typing "apt-cache search xserver xgl"? | 14:55 |
| sandstrom | outbackwifi: no, timeout | 14:55 |
| Mike | in what? | 14:55 |
| scunizi | Mike, windows | 14:56 |
| graingert | Mike: with zeroes | 14:56 |
| EyesOfARaven | ljl: i searched for "xgl" using that exact string and found nothing useful | 14:56 |
| graingert | Mike: or use knoppix | 14:56 |
| outbackwifi | sandstrom: can you pastebin sudo iptables -L | 14:56 |
| Mike | ok | 14:56 |
| sightless | can anyone help me with something really fast, every time i over a window it shows up, how do i disable this | 14:56 |
| graingert | Mike: with gparted | 14:56 |
| LjL | !info xserver-xgl | EyesOfARaven | 14:56 |
| ubottu | eyesofaraven: xserver-xgl (source: xserver-xgl): GL-based X server. In component universe, is optional. Version 1:1.1.99.1~git20080115-0ubuntu1 (hardy), package size 1839 kB, installed size 4572 kB | 14:56 |
| Mike | i tried gparted | 14:56 |
| Mike | it didnt work | 14:56 |
| EyesOfARaven | perhaps it just isn't released for ibex? (i know this isnt the right place ;p) | 14:56 |
| qstnn | LjL: Or I could just select a sunny location to keep me happy. I don't fly kites anyways :) | 14:56 |
| graingert | sightless: in System Prefrences windows | 14:56 |
| qstnn | LjL: I just says updating. Can I run it from a terminal to show some information. | 14:56 |
| graingert | Mike: ok, use the windows partitioner | 14:57 |
| LjL | qstnn: heh... anyway there are alternatives - less shiny ones perhaps - such as the "metar" package. | 14:57 |
| sightless | but the option is disabled, tho it still happens.. | 14:57 |
| Ohmu_ | hi people .... my mp3s play at hi volume, but movies play soo quiet. I'm using Totem. It's driving me crazy. Can anyone help? | 14:57 |
| LjL | qstnn: i don't know about running it from a terminal, it's not trivial given it's an applet... there might be a way, but not one i know | 14:57 |
| recon69 | Mike: if you just want windows , set bios to boot from CD, out your windows disk in , boot. user windows installer to format you hdd. you will lose everything on the computer. | 14:57 |
| recon69 | s/out/put | 14:57 |
| Mike | that doenst work | 14:57 |
| qstnn | LjL: Where does the applet go for information? I have the ICAO code figured right! And it says updating since a minute now. | 14:58 |
| graingert | Mike: yes it does | 14:58 |
| Mike | it does not aee the hard drive | 14:58 |
| Mike | see* | 14:58 |
| scunizi | qstnn, you want to run update in a window? sudo apt-get update... sudo apt-get upgrade.. sudo apt-get dist-upgrade | 14:58 |
| thiebaude | Ohhmu_:you should be able to adjust the volumn in totem | 14:58 |
| goog | Hey People! Is there a way to send keystrokes to a program? For example to automate an ssh login. Piping stuff into ssh seems not to work. Looks like it doesnt read from stdin. | 14:58 |

| qstnn | scunizi: I am trying to get the weather applet to work. | 14:58 |
| President | !channel list | 14:59 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about channel list | 14:59 |
| graingert | Mike: this is a windows problem, not an ubuntu one | 14:59 |
| scunizi | Mike, you need to burn a copy of the gparted live cd and use that.. although I can't figure out why we're helping you go back.... ##windows for windows issues. | 14:59 |
| recon69 | Mike: that because windows is unable to work with ext3 formatted drives. you need to reformat you drive. | 14:59 |
| johnsbarbershop | hey how can i add a system tray to a gnome bar? | 14:59 |
| thiebaude | mike:you just want windows and dont want to dual-boot? | 14:59 |
| scunizi | qstnn, ah.. what's it not doing that you want it to? | 14:59 |
| graingert | Mike: In buying windows you have purchased support, please go and pester them :-p | 15:00 |
| qstnn | scunizi: It doesn't have a city I am interested in. | 15:00 |
| graingert | thiebaude: he wan't 100%doze | 15:00 |
| LjL | qstnn: don't know, probably more than one service. the description itself says "US. National Weather Service (NWS) servers, including the Interactive Weather Information Network (IWIN)" | 15:00 |
| LjL | qstnn: the "metar" package will just use NOAA | 15:00 |
| scunizi | qstnn, maybe there isn't a weather station in that city to pull data from | 15:00 |
| IdleOne | graingert: no need to be rude. Mike please type /join ##windows and they will be able to help you | 15:01 |
| LjL | scunizi: if there is a passenger airport, and there is, then there is a station 99% | 15:01 |
| thiebaude | mike, or the channel 9 forums might be able to help you | 15:01 |
| qstnn | scunizi: weather.com has weather data | 15:02 |
| scunizi | LjL, sure.. missed that part of the conversation.. | 15:02 |
| graingert | Mike: it should "just work" tm... | 15:02 |
| Mike | i want to tell you guys, windows SUCKS, i just need it for gaming | 15:02 |
| graingert | Mike: what doze are you installing? | 15:02 |
| Mike | i hate their support | 15:02 |
| Mike | they are complete jerks | 15:02 |
| l7 | p | 15:03 |
| graingert | Mike: we know, 1 volunteer is worth 1000 conscripted men... | 15:03 |
| shell | mike dont support micro$uck | 15:03 |
| shell | supoort open and free software | 15:03 |
| IdleOne | Mike: insulting Windows and Windows users wont help you get better support from us | 15:03 |
| scunizi | qstnn, so the question is "how does the weather appelate get it's city locations and the appropriate data".. it must reference an internal table for external resources.. | 15:03 |
| Mike | idleone: i wasnt meaning that | 15:04 |
| qstnn | LjL: I can't get it to work. It still says updating. Weather data is available: http://www.airport-data.com/world-airports/VARK-RAJ/. Any ideas? | 15:04 |
| IdleOne | this is not a Anti-Windows irc channel. we are here to offer a different way of doing things. the Windows way is not the wrong way it is just different | 15:04 |
| qstnn | scunizi: ^ | 15:04 |
| graingert | IdleOne: Mike: and more expensive... | 15:05 |
| Mike | im just here for help | 15:05 |
| Mike | not to bash windows | 15:05 |
| graingert | Mike: ok, go the ##windows chan | 15:05 |
| graingert | Mike: we cannot help you here | 15:05 |
| Mike | ok | 15:05 |
| recon69 | Mike: sounds to me what you want is a dual boot system, so can you boot from the CD drive? | 15:05 |
| kri | hi what is the command for the configuration program/file | 15:05 |
| kri | is simular to gpedit.msc | 15:05 |
| kri | but in ubuntu | 15:05 |
| kri | or simular to register | 15:05 |
| qstnn | IdleOne: Nothing is so different. People just improve on things. Don't you think Gnome has a idea about how Windows UI works? But still it wants to be different. That tantamounts to Gnome (and thereby 'us') thinking our way is better. And it maybe right to bash windows. | 15:05 |
| johnsbarbershop | hey how can i add a system tray to a gnome bar? | 15:05 |
| newlife | Is there any other file managers that someone likes besides Nautilus or PCman ? ? | 15:06 |
| graingert | kri: dpkg reconfigure or somthing | 15:06 |

| kri | nah | 15:06 |
| thiebaude | newlife:thunar | 15:06 |
| thiebaude | !thunar | 15:06 |
| ubottu | Thunar is a file manager for !Xfce. It is a lightweight alternative to !Nautilus and is quite similar. More info at: http://thunar.xfce.org/index.html - Want to Replace Nautilus with Thunar? See http://psychocats.net/ubuntu/nonautilusplease | 15:06 |
| Sergiu | hi | 15:07 |
| IdleOne | graingert: it makes you feel real LEET to type doze instead of windows? do you think it gives you more "Hacker cred". Stop being so closed minded and accept that there is times when proprietary software and OS'es are needed. | 15:07 |
| johnsbarbershop | graingert: yes but i deleted the top gnome bar....then added another one and moved it to the top | 15:07 |
| kri | is where you can change multipli options for ubuntu and set new strings etc | 15:07 |

| === Pirate_Hunter is now known as pirate | ||
| newlife | thiebaude: How would you compare it to the ones I mentioned before ? Lighter, faster, etc. ? | 15:07 |
| kri | common | 15:08 |
| IdleOne | Sergiu: not yet | 15:08 |
| kri | rxconfig | 15:08 |
| kri | or what is it called | 15:08 |
| recon69 | GABY: describe your understanding of the problem ? | 15:08 |
| thiebaude | newlife:i dont know, i just use it when i'am in fluxbox | 15:08 |
| Sergiu | IdleOne ok | 15:08 |
| Sergiu | understood | 15:08 |
| jlewis | wow, 158 updates available, I wouldn't know where to start | 15:08 |
| thiebaude | i use nautilus when i'am on gnome | 15:08 |

| IdleOne | Sergiu: if you need that machine for important work I would wait a couple more weeks. official release date is Oct 30 | 15:08 |
| recon69 | jlewis: install? | 15:08 |
| kri | where do i change those settings that can only be changed in some sort of config program | 15:09 |
| GABY | recon69: How do I do "cd wusb54gc"? | 15:09 |

| jlewis | recon69? | 15:09 |
| kri | in ubuntu. | 15:09 |
| newlife | thiebaude: Haven't tried fluxbox yet - is this different version or desktop of ubuntu? | 15:09 |
| legend2440 | kri in terminal type gconf-editor | 15:09 |
| kri | thanks | 15:10 |
| thiebaude | kri,gconf-editor | 15:10 |
| recon69 | jlewis: mean that you should just install them. | 15:10 |
| drowner | Hello everyone: Where can I find the log of commands entered into terminal by a particular user? | 15:10 |
| IdleOne | newlife: it is a different Desktop that can be used in Ubuntu | 15:10 |
| kri | im writing this one up | 15:10 |
| thiebaude | newlife:it's another one of those window managers | 15:10 |
| thiebaude | !fluxbox | 15:10 |
| ubottu | fluxbox is a lightweight and responsive window manager for GNU/Linux. For how to set it up and more information see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Fluxbox | 15:10 |
| jlewis | standard stuff? 190 MB so I wasn't sure, obviously some of them aren't required | 15:10 |
| drowner | fluxbox is really fast. i like it | 15:10 |
| thiebaude | me too,drowner | 15:11 |
| thiebaude | its low on system resources | 15:11 |
| recon69 | GABY: well, first you need to be in a terminal window, and be in a directory that has a wusb54gc subfolder. | 15:11 |
| drowner | thiebaude: yup. Now, do you know the answer to my question ? ;) | 15:11 |

| arvind_khadri | GaMbi_DK, it may have some internal checking method... the installer script is doing it for you i guess... | 15:25 |
| prof_1 | Is there anyone who has had this problem? | 15:25 |
| unop | drowner, you'll need to edit the gconf settings for nautilus - using the gconf-editor | 15:25 |

| GaMbi_DK | arvind_khadri, the install script was on ISO3.. shoud be the same as the ISO | 15:26 |
| drowner | nice. thanks guys! | 15:26 |
| arvind_khadri | deo, hmm .. what happens when you plugin the device? | 15:26 |
| recon69 | GaMbi_DK: md5sum is a program that allows you to check files for DL errors, run the md5sum program against you downloaded file, it gives you a code, compare this with the MD5 code given on the file download page | 15:26 |
| thiebaude | cool,unop, that worked, thanks | 15:27 |
| arvind_khadri | GaMbi_DK, do what recon69 said :) | 15:27 |

| arvind_khadri | GaMbi_DK, the ISO will have a file named md5sum | 15:29 |
| recon69 | GaMbi_DK: well, if it's correct look for the same file on the ubuntu dl page , get the md5 code from there | 15:29 |

| cabrioleur | BSG75, and I recommend to check bug report, and if there is none, file it. It might be fixed before the official release, as it's a very popular card. | 15:46 |
| andresmh | scunizi: i installed 3.0 via synaptic | 15:46 |
| BSG75 | cabrioleur: stays good for a few minutes then takes a dump for a bit .. then comes back | 15:46 |

| floyd | but i want the plugins for it like annotate or snowball | 15:46 |
| floyd | anyone know how | 15:46 |
| arvind_khadri | perillux, install envyng ...its the ubuntu-fied version of envy | 15:46 |

| GaMbi_DK | LjL, I did "bash /home/gambi/Desktop/linux_installer.sh" same thing | 16:36 |
| [admin] | Thedjatclubrock, it says to you, Run the supplied get-iana.sh script to generate this file. , updatedb then locate get-iana.sh then run it | 16:36 |
| jmota | i got one laptop with hardy and a desktop with feisty...any clue why i got my adsl net 8 times faster in the desktop? | 16:36 |
| mykhi | yea, the thing is there is no /dev/video1 on my linux ;< | 16:36 |
| dr_willis | scunizi, sudo dpkt-reconfigure dash | 16:36 |
| LjL | GaMbi_DK: try "cd"'ing to the directory first. "cd /home/gambi/Desktop", then "bash linux_installer.sh" | 16:36 |
| dr_willis | scunizi, i think lets you change from dash to bash. | 16:36 |
| GaMbi_DK | sec | 16:37 |
| scunizi | dr_willis, dpkt or dpkg? | 16:37 |
| legend2440 | mandark: what kind of errors? | 16:37 |
| GaMbi_DK | LjL, same thing | 16:37 |
| LjL | mykhi: there are also instructions for just a couple of cards here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Video#TV-cards | 16:37 |
| dr_willis | scunizi, well given that there is no dpkt :) its a g | 16:38 |
| dr_willis | heh | 16:38 |
| LjL | GaMbi_DK: try what dr_willis said (but remember to change it back to dash afterwards!), although i doubt it's dash's fault | 16:38 |
| scunizi | GaMbi_DK, look at dr_willis post above.. but it should read sudo dpkg-reconfigure dash | 16:38 |

| === alCHOlic is now known as TURK | ||
| [admin] | camplusblo, state the problem | 16:41 |
| dr_willis | photon, default live cd does not mount the hard drives untill yoyu try to access them.. I use the 'unetbootin' tool to make a bootable live-flash drive from the desktop isos | 16:41 |
| camplusblo | i just typed it in . i dont know what % N means | 16:41 |
| seronis | camplusblo, all that does is take a modulus of what 'out' is | 16:41 |
| [admin] | camplusblo, % = mod | 16:41 |
| seronis | basically incrementing it and making it loop back to zero after it maxes out (defined by N) | 16:41 |
| dulak | camplusblo: modulus | 16:42 |
| camplusblo | oh thats modulus? | 16:42 |
| camplusblo | ok | 16:42 |

| dr_willis | GaMbi_DK, it does need to be executable for that to work.. and spelled right. | 16:42 |

| camplusblo | ok thanks | 16:42 |

| GaMbi_DK | LjL, dr_willis still "Error in checksums: 2631597793 is different from 3043856338" | 16:44 |
| GaMbi_DK | guess I got another problem | 16:44 |
| scunizi | seronis, are you running ubuntu in a vm on the mac? | 16:44 |
| seronis | no | 16:44 |
| seronis | dualbooting 8.04 with xp | 16:44 |
| seronis | no vm | 16:44 |
| seronis | i put one of my game dvd's in the drive to install it via Wine and its showing me a apple installer | 16:45 |
| dr_willis | GaMbi_DK, could be the script is working.. and its designed to check itslf.. and spit out that error if it thinks its currupted... | 16:45 |
| LjL | GaMbi_DK: yes, bash really has nothing to do with it, i'm afraid. remember to set dash back. | 16:45 |
| camplusblo | what does while (1) mean ? | 16:45 |
| seronis | camplusblo, if you go to ##c i'll answer that =-) | 16:45 |
| dulak | camplusblo: run loop forever | 16:45 |
| [admin] | camplusblo, infinite loop\ | 16:45 |
| scunizi | seronis, k. how did you initiate the install process? | 16:45 |
| camplusblo | i cant get into ##C | 16:45 |
| camplusblo | something about undefined behaviour | 16:46 |
| scunizi | camplusblo, use /join ##C | 16:46 |

| seronis | scunizi: the other disks i've used werent multiformat so after opening the disk i just run the installer the same as i would in XP | 16:47 |
| scunizi | seronis, ok.. if you know what the installer is on the dvd.. as in setup.exe you might try wine d:\setup.exe or something similar.. however wine questions are good at #winehq | 16:47 |
| seronis | scunizi | 16:47 |
| graingert | seronis: are you sure it is not the windows and mac contents; and is this spore? | 16:47 |

| ubottu | mikebeecham: virtualbox is a x86 !virtualizer. A !free edition is available from !Gutsy as 'virtualbox-ose'. A non-free edition is available at http://virtualbox.org for most Ubuntu releases (help in #vbox) - Setup details at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VirtualBox | 17:33 |
| scunizi | mikebeecham, sure.. vmware server or virtualbox will allow you to run windows inside a window in linux | 17:33 |

| LightTitan | meborc thank you | 17:34 |
| dulak | LightTitan: awm is a dock sort of like the one on a mac | 17:34 |
| HorizonXP | [admin]: iptables | 17:34 |
| dr_willis | LightTitan, theres a dozen 'docks' like that.. avant is a popular one.. | 17:34 |
| mikebeecham | graingert: thanks for the headsup, but this is not what I want...I dont want to run windows within Ubuntu, I want to be able to swtich betweem Ubuntu and Windows | 17:34 |

| graingert | Wolf23: run update-manager | 17:35 |
| [admin] | HorizonXP, did you do a forward ? or masquerade ? | 17:35 |
| HorizonXP | [admin]: masquerade, using ipmasq | 17:36 |
| mikebeecham | graingert: sorry mate, but I'm in IT and have used Virtualbox before. I want to be able to perform the same function of using a dualboot system without having to reboot back into windows. I have shares and software already installed on Windows that need to be kept in place | 17:36 |

| Pupeno | I don't see any bacula sqlite packages, is sqlite support included in the common packages or something like that? | 17:36 |
| scunizi | mikebeecham, virtualbox or vmware.. these are the ones.. however if your goal is to play directx games in windows it won't work.. you have to reboot into windows directly for that.. there is no way to switch between the two hard installs. | 17:36 |
| mikebeecham | unless there is a new feature of Virtualbox that I am unaware of | 17:36 |
| [admin] | HorizonXP, ip forward ? | 17:36 |
| graingert | Wolf23: you want to update a lot of them... | 17:36 |
| fukas | hello all | 17:36 |
| mikebeecham | scunizi: thank you...that makes more sense | 17:36 |
| rogan | vmware! | 17:37 |
| HorizonXP | [admin]: well, what's the difference? | 17:37 |
| scunizi | mikebeecham, there is a program that vmware has that will take a physical install and convert it to a VM.. intact.. | 17:37 |
| mikebeecham | I dont want to set up a virtual windows install...I want to be able to switch between a linux install and my windows install | 17:37 |
| [admin] | HorizonXP, http://www.ducea.com/2006/08/01/how-to-enable-ip-forwarding-in-linux/ this might help | 17:37 |

| Wolf23 | graingert: lol , if i install all ? so i should have mouse with effects sounds? | 17:37 |
| mikebeecham | scunizi: including all shares, etc? | 17:37 |

| [admin] | HorizonXP, the router may think it is his own connection, instead ... anyway try the link and get back if i doesn't help | 17:38 |
| scunizi | mikebeecham, I think so.. it's basically a mirror image that you can load into a vm just as it was previously.. nice thing is it's non-distructive to the physical install so you can try it if needed.. of course you don't want to "validate" the install until you test it. | 17:38 |
| Wolf23 | graingert: ok i start updating, but is it take several hours, coz i am just visiting her | 17:38 |

| B1BLancer1 | Stupid question to follow. I installed Clamtk virus scan and tried to update the signatures database. It says I must be root to install updates. What does that mean and how do I do it?? | 19:53 |
| binspac1 | Tom_Davis: yes | 19:53 |
| KillerOrca | B1BLancer1: means you need to do a sudo command via terminal | 19:53 |
| GreedyB | n8tuser: any way to do virtual machines without recompiling my kernel? | 19:53 |
| Nvidiot | B1BLancer1: 'root' is the superuser that can do anything on the system. To run a command (like the command to update the antivirus) as root: sudo update_command_here | 19:53 |

| ActionParsnip | lee1: no idea, i dont compile in ubuntu as i simply cant be bothered | 20:33 |
| seekingtruth | when is new ubuntu out? | 20:33 |
| lee1 | ActionParsnip: usually the case for me :) | 20:33 |

| ubottu | Intrepid Ibex is the code name for Ubuntu 8.10, due October 30th, 2008 - WARNING: lots of broken software between now and October 30th! - Use #ubuntu+1 for support, NOT #ubuntu | 20:33 |
| juniecho | wsa, are you there - just wanted say thanks, my laptop now works perfectly | 20:33 |
| juniecho | thank you | 20:33 |
| NetEcho | Is Intrepid fairly stable? | 20:34 |
| ActionParsnip | juniecho: good to hear :D:D | 20:34 |
| NetEcho | for a RC? | 20:34 |
| XiXaQ | is there any simulator for Symbian S60? | 20:34 |
| cyberjackal | lee1, you may have to add the directory that the .so file is in to /etc/ld.so.conf, run ldconfig, and try again | 20:34 |
| ActionParsnip | NetEcho: if hardy works, dont fix it | 20:34 |
| binspace | Tom_Davis: Yeah, no luck. I did find out that the usb drive has nothing to do with the login. Every time I boot, the live cd, which is on my hard drive, takes over. | 20:34 |
| yzr | Hi ! I've just installed Ubuntu 8.04 on my laptop (Dell Inspiron 1300) and I've tried to connect to my wireless router and it haven't been found, however the wired connection works perfectly fine... Wireless seems to work aswell, but it just not showing any networks at all. My other laptop is picking all of them networks. What could be the problem ? | 20:34 |
| cyberjackal | lee1, not a permanent solution, but my guess is that it can't find the library | 20:34 |
| ActionParsnip | yzr: are you fully updated? | 20:35 |
| seekingtruth | ActionParsnip: woohoo | 20:35 |
| lee1 | cyberjackal: how can it not find the library when it's right there beside the binary | 20:35 |
| ActionParsnip | seekingtruth: ? | 20:35 |
| Tom_Davis | binspace: hurm, might wanna do a straight up install on that | 20:35 |
| will00 | does irkick actually change any of the lirc config files? | 20:35 |
| yzr | ActionParsnip: yeah... | 20:35 |
| seekingtruth | ActionParsnip: 30th | 20:35 |
| NetEcho | ActionParsnip, if it isn't broken but I'm bored I fix it, plus the fact that fdisk can't make any changes to my HDD is annoying me so I'm gonna probably end up having to format | 20:35 |
| juniecho | ah one thing, i sucessfully installed my wacom tablet driver by manually compiling it, is it okay to delete the driver folder i unpacked the archive and compiled the driver from my home folder? | 20:35 |
| Tom_Davis | binspace: or wait 6 days and ibex it | 20:35 |
| ActionParsnip | juniecho: you can delete the source code | 20:36 |
| seekingtruth | NetEcho: define bored | 20:36 |
| cyberjackal | lee1, i'm just guessing, but I think it looks in the lib paths you have configured for your system, which is set in ld.so.conf and ld.so.conf.d under /etc | 20:36 |
| binspace | Tom_Davis: Yeah, that makes sense. I must have overwritten my entire installation. | 20:36 |
| NetEcho | seekingtruth, bored as in nothing to do | 20:36 |
| ActionParsnip | yzr: run sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart to see what errors it gives | 20:36 |
| lee1 | cyberjackal: I tried making a copy of libjemalloc.so to /usr/lib/ and it still fails to start | 20:36 |
| cyberjackal | lee1, did you run ldconfig after doing that? | 20:36 |
| NetEcho | seekingtruth, I've been trying to take my old OSx86 partition, format it and mount it in Ubuntu but no matter what I've done it still refuses to change | 20:37 |
| cyberjackal | lee1, ldconfig updates everything | 20:37 |
| Tom_Davis | binspace: there is absolutely no reference to your hard drive except the swap | 20:37 |
| juniecho | actionparsnip: so you mean this "/home/celestial/linuxwacom-0.7.9-11" whole folder can be deleted, without affecting the installed driver? | 20:37 |
| seekingtruth | NetEcho: doing nothing is doing something :-) | 20:37 |
| lee1 | cyberjackal: no, i'll try that now :) | 20:37 |
| NetEcho | seekingtruth, lol | 20:37 |
| cyberjackal | lee1, sudo ldconfig (as root) | 20:37 |
| lee1 | ok | 20:37 |
| seekingtruth | NetEcho: if you bored, play around with Virtualbox and Ubuntu | 20:37 |
| NetEcho | virtualbox? | 20:37 |
| seekingtruth | NetEcho: http://www.virtualbox.org/ | 20:37 |
| jannott | Someone know any great text to speech software? | 20:37 |
| seekingtruth | NetEcho: i run Ubuntu through Virtualbox | 20:37 |
| ActionParsnip | juniecho: try renaming and rebooting. If its fine, delete it | 20:37 |
| Rabbitbunny | festival. | 20:37 |
| reqqit | Can you setup Ubuntu server to automatically queue up security / package updates? | 20:37 |
| lee1 | :/ now its failing with libxul.so, i'll copy all.so to /usr/local and use ldconfig | 20:38 |
| seekingtruth | NetEcho: its free :) | 20:38 |
| NetEcho | seekingtruth, does it have a win32 version as well? | 20:38 |
| reqqit | jannott, flite is festival lite | 20:38 |
| juniecho | actionparsnip: oh yeah, good advice. thank you | 20:38 |
| NetEcho | my friend has needed a good vm for a long time | 20:38 |
| seekingtruth | NetEcho: yes, thats what I am using | 20:38 |
| ldiamond | Should I install Ubuntu Server 32 bit or 64 bit ? I have a 64bit architecture | 20:38 |
| yzr | sudo /etc/init.d/networking | 20:38 |
| seekingtruth | NetEcho: I run Vista windows. and installed virtualbox. Then installed Ubuntu through virtualbox | 20:38 |
| reqqit | Virtualbox is another reason why Sun are awesome | 20:38 |
| dmhardison | Can someone point me to a document that describes how to connect to an 802.11x secured network? My school uses this authentication and I don't know what needs to be done to connect. | 20:38 |
| juniecho | netecho: it is like vmware, a virtual machine software, it is so sweet | 20:38 |
| seekingtruth | NetEcho: its excellent | 20:38 |
| Rabbitbunny | dmhardison: google. | 20:39 |
| ActionParsnip | yzr: sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart | 20:39 |
| NetEcho | yea I think I heard about virtualbox before it was released | 20:39 |
| cyberjackal | lee1: if you want, you can probably just ln -s to them instead of copying, but I would either copy or link to all libraries that were built with firefox | 20:39 |
| yzr | ActionParsnip: * Reconfiguring network interfaces... [ OK ] | 20:39 |
| yzr | nothing else | 20:39 |
| NetEcho | it had me pretty stoked I just forgot the name | 20:39 |
| dmhardison | Rabbitbunny I have | 20:39 |
| reqqit | Anyone running photoshop on ubuntu? Is it better to virtualbox, or wine? | 20:39 |
| ActionParsnip | yrz: any other outputs? | 20:39 |
| dmhardison | all I get are a bunch of forums that tell me little. | 20:39 |
| juniecho | yeah virtualbox... excellent when you're bored and want to play something nice | 20:39 |
| lee1 | It worked, problem solved | 20:39 |
| NetEcho | reqqit, virtual machine would always be better | 20:39 |
| juniecho | like, you can run windows inside linux or vise versa | 20:39 |
| ActionParsnip | reqqit: wine runs it pretty well apparently, theres gimp which runs natively | 20:39 |
| cyberjackal | lee1: cool :) | 20:39 |
| mortal1 | howdy folks, I have a key on my machine that gnome calls 0x99, if I wanted to map a command to that key, how would i do it? | 20:39 |
| yzr | ActionParsnip: no... nothing else just this | 20:39 |
| NetEcho | wine is reverse engineered whereas virtualbox allows you to run an actual copy of windows | 20:39 |
| reqqit | ActionParsnip, Some would say it doesn't really 'run' ;-) I am using it now for a logo | 20:40 |
| nicolas | 27 | 20:40 |
| ActionParsnip | yzr: ok then check your logs to see whats going on | 20:40 |
| dmhardison | It appears network manager is unable to handle these connections so I have to use windows? | 20:40 |
| reqqit | ActionParsnip, and I've just given up - too annoying. I do try and give it a chance.. | 20:40 |
| juniecho | hehehe, thank you everyone, now i'm going to take a ghost image of this linux installation - so perfect | 20:40 |
| yzr | ActionParsnip: how do I do that ? sorry. New to linux | 20:40 |
| reqqit | ActionParsnip, although I'd say this, the new version is getting there, a few hacks and FINALLY registering the window frame types correctly. | 20:40 |
| ActionParsnip | reqqit: i reccomend gimp but some people cant divorce themselves from adobes products | 20:40 |
| Dave-X | hi anyone know how to encode xvid .avi s to a DVD playable fromat? | 20:41 |
| NetEcho | seekingtruth, it looks like the girlfriend is gonna come over so nerding it up will have to wait :( but I do gotta get arround to re-doing the laptop and re-formating all the drives in my desktop system | 20:41 |
| reqqit | ActionParsnip, I'd wager you are not someone who needs image software a lot every day... I am the first to want to divorce from adobe, I hate them... and I've got to learn a few things in GIMP, but it is lacking some basics | 20:41 |
| reqqit | perhaps... inkscape can help me out for this logo | 20:41 |
| Nvidiot | aww MAN! Finally got my ubuntu working and I realize I used the 32-bit cd while I need the 64-bit one :/ | 20:41 |

| THE_GFR|WORK | Nvidiot: yea I just did a net-install of ubuntu on a P2 300 Mhz | 20:42 |
| THE_GFR|WORK | Nvidiot: laptop mind you | 20:42 |
| Nvidiot | reqqit: nah, I want performance for this box so I'm gonna use the 64-bit version | 20:42 |
| ActionParsnip | reqqit: i touch up tyhe odd thing. gimp is great | 20:42 |
| mortal1 | Nvidiot: do you like your codecs and plugins? | 20:42 |
| NetEcho | seekingtruth, formating 3 Raid 0+1 arrays = balls | 20:42 |
| mortal1 | if you do, I'd recommend the 32bit | 20:42 |
| THE_GFR|WORK | Nvidiot: yea my server is 64bit | 20:42 |
| ActionParsnip | Nvidiot: 64bit wont give you better performance | 20:42 |
| Nvidiot | mortal1: it'll be a raid network server box so no codecs needed | 20:42 |
| THE_GFR|WORK | Nvidiot: 64bit debian though | 20:42 |
| seekingtruth | NetEcho: im not sure about that lol | 20:43 |
| seekingtruth | NetEcho: what you doing when your gf gets there? | 20:43 |
| THE_GFR|WORK | oh how I hope this install finishes soon and actually works | 20:43 |
| Nvidiot | ActionParsnip: meh, it's not much work to redo it, and it won't give me worse performance than 32-bit :) | 20:43 |
| seekingtruth | THE_GFR|WORK: life is about dealing and managing challenges | 20:44 |

| reqqit | ActionParsnip, question regarding server updates - regular security updates - can you get them to queue up automatically and message you? | 20:44 |
| ActionParsnip | Nvidiot: i agree but 64 bit OS doesnt make it faster is my point | 20:44 |
| NetEcho | seekingtruth, lol well that I'm not to sure of yet but probably the usual lol | 20:44 |
| reqqit | Or, what is the best practice in updating a server? | 20:44 |
| Rovin | Hello, could I get some help with a tutorial please? :) | 20:44 |
| Nvidiot | ActionParsnip: it might actually, it can do bigger chunks of data at once, which will be useful for the software RAID5 I'm going to be running | 20:44 |
| seekingtruth | NetEcho: whats the usual? | 20:44 |
| ActionParsnip | reqqit: if its a critical server then have an identical test rig to test, or have backup images of the system | 20:45 |

| seekingtruth | NetEcho: ahh 21. i thought you said 12 lol | 20:46 |
| ActionParsnip | Nvidiot: id test, see what you think. if it performs adequately then its great. if you dont need codecs etc. id go 64bit | 20:46 |
| NetEcho | never said my age in here before lol | 20:46 |
| ActionParsnip | Nvidiot: for desktops 32bit is adequate, especialy for codecs and plugins | 20:46 |
| seekingtruth | NetEcho: i hope you married. because its immoral to have sex outside of marriage | 20:46 |
| NetEcho | seekingtruth, I turn 22 on Friday | 20:46 |

| superkiwi | I tried to install 8.10, but got errors with mounting cd. Now I get errors with installing packages. | 20:56 |

| ActionParsnip | Miesco: you cant mount sdb | 20:57 |
| superkiwi | I am install 8.04 that is, server, in text-mode | 20:57 |
| yzr | ActionParsnip: dunno where the log viewer is... Never had to use it before... Sorry for being a noob. | 20:57 |
| deltaslaya | Flannel: Yea, I have tried that driver. It worked to begin with, but now it just asks me to format the drives and I can't access them? | 20:57 |
| linuser | deltaslaya use a flash drive | 20:57 |
| ActionParsnip | Miesco: sdb is a disk you can physically hold and touch | 20:57 |
| ActionParsnip | Miesco: you need sdb1 or sdb2 or something like that | 20:57 |
| ActionParsnip | Miesco: you mount partitions, not drives | 20:57 |
| superkiwi | and the error is not GRUB, it is that the installer can't seem to install the packages. Every stage after "configure the package manager" fails. | 20:58 |
| Miesco | ActionParsnip: thanks! | 20:58 |
| linuser | deltaslaya use a flash drive or a thumb drive | 20:58 |
| Flannel | superkiwi: Did you check the disks for defects/verify its integrity? | 20:58 |
| ActionParsnip | Miesco: run sudo fdisk -l to show partitions | 20:58 |
| deltaslaya | Ok, I guess I could just use the iPod itself? | 20:58 |
| superkiwi | Yes, I checked the integrity of the cd. | 20:58 |
| superkiwi | It passed. | 20:58 |
| Flannel | superkiwi: You're using the alternate CD? | 20:59 |
| deltaslaya | It might be easier if I kept all my music on the Windows Partition... | 20:59 |
| superkiwi | The 8.04 server cd, from ubuntu, not alternative. | 20:59 |
| linuser | what does apparmor do exactly other than log to the syslog? | 20:59 |
| Miesco | ActionParsnip: /dev/mmcblk0p1 | 20:59 |
| Flannel | superkiwi: Ah, try the alternate CD | 20:59 |
| superkiwi | ugh, what's different? | 20:59 |
| ActionParsnip | Miesco: wow thats a crazy name | 20:59 |
| Miesco | ActionParsnip: Tis, but it works :) | 20:59 |
| linuser | apparmor does not do anything other than log to log files | 20:59 |
| ActionParsnip | Miesco: if thats what it says, try it | 20:59 |
| amigamia | i just did a bunch of and with the add manager and the little thing is just spinning aorund. is it working or is it hanging? i dont see any action like i did earlier when i did a bunch of updating of new apps | 20:59 |
| ActionParsnip | Miesco: if it works, dont argue with it ;) | 21:00 |
| Miesco | yep! | 21:00 |
| tyronep | please and anyone help me find the error. All I see when I log in is a black screen. | 21:00 |
| superkiwi | I thought it alternative because it used other video stuff, but my installer seems to work visually. | 21:00 |
| amigamia | you have the black screen of death :D | 21:00 |
| ActionParsnip | tyronep: can you boot to recovery mode? | 21:00 |
| tyronep | ActionParsnip, Yes i can but what should I do there? | 21:01 |
| yzr | how to access network log files ? | 21:01 |
| Flannel | superkiwi: The server CD supports different hardware, sometimes it causes problems on PC hardware | 21:01 |
| Flannel | tyronep: Are you at the black screen right now? does ctrl-alt-f1 get you to a console? | 21:01 |
| ActionParsnip | tyronep: run dmesg in the safe boot mode, or root console | 21:01 |
| superkiwi | I see. I'l try the alternate version, thanks for the help. | 21:01 |
| tyronep | Flannel, Yes but I don't know what to do from there | 21:01 |
| tyronep | ActionParsnip, What does that command do? | 21:02 |
| Flannel | superkiwi: It'll install a GUI (just like the desktop) by default, but theres an option (f4 or f5, I don't remember which) to install a command line only version | 21:02 |
| ActionParsnip | tyronep: from there run dmesg | less | 21:02 |
| ActionParsnip | tyronep: its boot messages as well as other stuff, you can read it for errors and issues | 21:02 |
| Flannel | tyronep: You merely have an issue with X (the graphical thing) the rest of your boot is fine. | 21:03 |
| tyronep | ActionParsnip, Ok I am going to try that | 21:03 |
| tyronep | Flannel, Yes I think that too but I don't know how to fix it | 21:03 |
| ActionParsnip | tyronep: you can also try fining the xorg.conf file fro there if its faulty | 21:03 |

| Flannel | donadon: Welcome. The best way to get help is to just ask whatever questions you have. People will answer whatever they know the answers to. | 22:05 |
| donadon | my problem is that the boot CD halts in the first loading bar screen | 22:05 |
| Flannel | donadon: Boot CD? you mean to install? | 22:05 |
| donadon | yes, and I should mention I have a SATA HD | 22:05 |
| Flannel | donadon: This is after you hit "Install or run Ubuntu" yes? | 22:05 |
| donadon | yes | 22:06 |
| Flannel | donadon: Have you checked the CD for defects? (few options down) | 22:06 |
| [ipc]michael | donadon try the alternate install disc | 22:06 |
| donadon | yes, and the screen halts the same way, with a orange bar frozen | 22:06 |
| donadon | I believe I'm using the alternate install disk | 22:07 |
| tyronep | ActionParsnip, how can I remove awn from my session from the terminal? | 22:07 |
| Flannel | donadon: alright, that sounds like a bad burn. How did you download your iso? | 22:07 |
| donadon | FTP download | 22:07 |
| donadon | but I have this strange problem: I was able to live run the kubuntu 6.0, but it could find any HD either | 22:08 |
| Flannel | donadon: Alright, the first section of this page has a few steps that everyone goes through. Grab your iso and check the MD5, and then re-burn a CD, and try and do it as slow as you can (4x speed is good) https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation | 22:08 |
| XiXaQ | donadon, in the boot menu, you have the option to scan the cd for errors. | 22:08 |
| Flannel | donadon: 6.06? Get a newer version, try 8.04 | 22:08 |
| donadon | yes, NOW I tried to install or live run the 804 and it halts as described | 22:08 |
| Flannel | donadon: The freezes etc have nothing to do with your harddrive. So before we try and solve some odd harddrive missing issue, lets make sure we have a healthy CD first. | 22:09 |
| XiXaQ | donadon, did you check the cd for errors? | 22:09 |
| ActionParsnip | tyronep: sudo apt-get --purge remove awn | 22:09 |
| donadon | XiXaQ: yes, and it halts the same way | 22:09 |
| Flannel | XiXaQ: He did, it froze. | 22:09 |
| tekteen | I am using the ubuntu gui to change the resolution on my machine and none of the options have the HD aspect ratio. Anyone know why that would happen? | 22:09 |

| dustin | 82573L | 22:13 |

| dustin | no | 22:14 |
| dustin | but i installed it a few weeks ago | 22:15 |
| tyronep | ActionParsnip, nothing seems to help i cannot solve it | 22:15 |
| ajhtiredwolf | tekteen, sorry im not good with ati, but have you tried using the catylist manager? | 22:15 |
| ActionParsnip | tyronep: has this always been the case or has something changed to cause it | 22:15 |
| tekteen | ajhtiredwolf: you will have to tell me what that is | 22:15 |
| joaopinto | Pupeno, you use rsync over ssh with, using ssh keys for password-less login, google will provide some tutorials :) | 22:15 |
| * tekteen + graphics = bad | 22:15 | |
| ajhtiredwolf | tekteen, open up a terminal and type sudo apt-get install ati then press tab tab | 22:16 |
| ajhtiredwolf | tekteen, should give a list, and there should a catylist contorl center or something in there, or a manager or hwat not | 22:16 |
| tekteen | atitvout? | 22:16 |
| tekteen | that is all that shows up | 22:16 |
| Pupeno | joaopinto: I know how to do that, but I don't feel ok leaving private keys in a user for the other server. Correctly managing permissions for that goes beyond what I can do. | 22:16 |
| ajhtiredwolf | tekteen, are you using the binary drivers? | 22:17 |
| kri | what codec do i miss when i dont here any sound from youtube? | 22:17 |
| joaopinto | Pupeno, you dont leave private keys for the other server, you leave public keys on the backup server | 22:17 |
| tekteen | no | 22:17 |
| ajhtiredwolf | tekteen, you might wnat to follow this guide, one sec let me find it | 22:17 |
| tyronep | ActionParsnip, Ok i removed my autostart folder from my ~/.config and I got to log in finally :D How can I figure out which of the programs is crashing my Xorg | 22:17 |
| Pupeno | joaopinto: I only have two servers backing up each other, I don't have a backup server. | 22:17 |
| joaopinto | leaving public keys is not a security problem | 22:17 |
| tekteen | oh god no | 22:17 |

| KillerOrca | anyone use ushare? | 22:18 |

| graingert | !ask | KillerOrca | 22:18 |
| ActionParsnip | !info ushare | 22:18 |
| ubottu | KillerOrca: 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. :-) | 22:18 |
| ubottu | ushare (source: ushare): lightweight UPnP A/V Media Server. In component universe, is optional. Version 1.1a-0ubuntu1 (hardy), package size 49 kB, installed size 228 kB | 22:18 |
| tekteen | ajhtiredwolf: is that needed? That answer alone would be a help | 22:18 |
| ajhtiredwolf | tekteen, the problem that you are having is that not all resolutions are showing up/ | 22:19 |
| ajhtiredwolf | tekteen, is that correct? | 22:19 |
| donadon | Flannel: my shame I cant find the MD5 signature of the media! where is it on the site? | 22:19 |
| Flannel | donadon: These are hardy CDs? | 22:19 |

| donadon | Flannel: I downloaded it | 22:20 |
| Flannel | !paste | hausha | 22:20 |
| ubottu | hausha: pastebin is a service to post multiple-lined texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu.com (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the channel topic) | 22:20 |
| ActionParsnip | !paste | hausha | 22:20 |
| tekteen | ajhtiredwolf: you there? | 22:20 |
| ajhtiredwolf | tekteen, so my guess is that the drivers you are using aren' specific enough to your hardware to detect all of its settings | 22:20 |
| tekteen | ok | 22:20 |
| ajhtiredwolf | tekteen, so i would recommennd the ati drivers | 22:20 |
| ajhtiredwolf | tekteen, i could be wrong though, that is just my guess | 22:20 |
| tekteen | could it be that my hardware can not do it? | 22:20 |

| swif_ | I'm dual-booting Windows XP and Hardy 8.04... My XP install was compromised by a vast amount of malware last night and I would like to re-install XP on its partition, but it's my understanding that XP overwrites the boot sector and ruins GRUB/Ubuntu. Is there a sure-fire way to re-install XP on a dual-booted XP/Ubuntu box without touching GRUB or any other boot configuration settings? | 22:26 |
| === swif_ is now known as swif | ||
| ActionParsnip | KenBW22: if its behind arouter an there is no port forwarding it will require hacking the roter | 22:26 |
| ActionParsnip | KenBW22: unless remote config is enabled | 22:26 |
| KenBW22 | ActionParsnip: please elaborate | 22:26 |
| ajhtiredwolf | tekteen, what resolution are you at right now? | 22:27 |
| jussi01 | swif: no, but grub is not hard to reinstall, look here: | 22:27 |
| jussi01 | !grub | 22:27 |
| ubottu | GRUB is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost GRUB after installing Windows? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreGrub - GRUB how-tos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto | 22:27 |
| Nvidiot | Question: run raid5 directly on the drives or create a partition first on the drives? | 22:27 |
| tekteen | ajhtiredwolf: 1024x768 | 22:27 |
| ajhtiredwolf | tekteen, and you said you wanted 720 by what? | 22:27 |
| ActionParsnip | KenBW22: routers are firewalls by the fact that unexpectd packets are dropped due to the nature of nat | 22:27 |
| johann_ | hello, one question: I have installed Ubuntu, but left a FAT32 partition on the hard drive | 22:27 |
| RanyAlbeg | I cant find system-prferences-themes...can some1 help | 22:27 |
| Flannel | donadon: Either one (desktop or alternate) will work. If the desktop fails, the alternate is more likely to work though. It's not a liveCD however. | 22:28 |
| johann_ | is it possible to install windows after ubuntu? | 22:28 |
| ajhtiredwolf | tekteen, actually first try this | 22:28 |
| KenBW22 | ActionParsnip: i meant about the remote config | 22:28 |
| ajhtiredwolf | tekteen, do you know the vertial and horizontal refresh rates on your monitor? | 22:28 |
| ActionParsnip | KenBW22: so unless you have have remote config enable so you can turn it on, any data recieved on port 22 will be dropped | 22:28 |
| Nvidiot | johann_: yes, but not recommended, since you have to then repair linux again | 22:28 |
| cHiOs | I installed ubuntu inside windows XP using unetboot, what do I have to edit to make ubuntu boot instead of windows? | 22:28 |

| KenBW22 | ActionParsnip: whats this remote config you speak off? | 22:29 |
| trollboy | Can I still but a FS on it? or should I wait the 5 hours? | 22:29 |
| johann_ | thank you Nvidiot | 22:29 |
| stage3 | johann, it is possible, but you have to reinstall the Grub | 22:29 |
| ajhtiredwolf | tekteen, do you have 640x480 available? | 22:29 |
| ActionParsnip | KenBW22: you cant turn on remote config so you can configure the router from the wan side, rather than LAN, this is off by default and is massively unsecure | 22:29 |
| donadon | Flannel: I'm checking the CD integrity via the boot menu option in another computer, and the media seems to work. the problem then is with my machine, a laptop where I want to install Ubuntu... | 22:29 |

| Yorokobi | Does the 8.10 Desktop (GUI) installer support encrypting partitions during the install or is that the text-only (alternate) installer? | 22:31 |
| ActionParsnip | KenBW22: then you'll need to find the default pass if you havent changed it | 22:31 |
| trollboy | Nvidiot, I created them as "Linux raid autodetect" beforehand | 22:31 |
| ActionParsnip | KenBW22: or you can hard reset it on the unit and reset it up | 22:31 |

| Code_Bleu | So 1 out of 1392 people in the chat room have a scanner running on Ubuntu? Surely there has to be others that have scanners? I Just dont want to go buy something and it be a big piece of crap | 22:36 |
| Jakob_the_liar | it was working fine and i was checking my email and it just stopped | 22:36 |
| Jakob_the_liar | i have Helminthe | 22:36 |

| PriceChild | Code_Bleu: not everybody is available all the time. | 22:36 |
| Randall | can someone here help me install a driver for my video card? u can give any info needed if someone can help. I already tried the traditional ways (eg Hardware drivers, and ENVY) | 22:36 |
| PriceChild | !patience | Code_Bleu | 22:36 |
| ubottu | Code_Bleu: The people here are volunteers, your attitude should reflect that. Answers are not always available. See http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines | 22:36 |
| zozobra | jordo2323, yes. right click, hit delete panel. | 22:36 |
| Code_Bleu | KenBW22: Thanks | 22:36 |
| Shrimpy_ | wondering if anyone can help me with some ssh problems with the neofreefunner/openmoko | 22:36 |
| KillerOrca | Code_Bleu: the only scanner I have is for my win box, sorry | 22:36 |
| Jakob_the_liar | i get a signal the bottom dot goes green and then the icon just spins | 22:36 |
| KenBW22 | Code_Bleu: theres always the hardware compatibility list | 22:36 |
| FAJ | Randall: what is the video card? | 22:36 |
| Jakob_the_liar | and if i uninstall network manager i cant connect at all | 22:36 |
| Xpistos | zozobra: I am checking it with my windows box now | 22:37 |
| ActionParsnip | Jakob_the_liar: you can edit /etc/network/interfaces file | 22:37 |
| Randall | FAJ Geforce4: MX 420 | 22:37 |

| KenBW22 | branden: keep your updates installed | 22:37 |
| Helminthe | Jakob_the_liar: the only hint I might have - start with something that works. add hardware and software one step at a time | 22:37 |
| Jakob_the_liar | iface eth2 inet dhcp | 22:37 |
| ActionParsnip | Jakob_the_liar: do you use wpa? | 22:37 |
| ajhtiredwolf | tekteen, how's that work for you? | 22:37 |
| Jakob_the_liar | dont think so ActionParsnip | 22:38 |
| branden | I have. But when I full screen movies it is glitchy. | 22:38 |
| Jakob_the_liar | wep | 22:38 |
| PriceChild | Randall: you will need the newer of the nvidia legacy packages, see system > admin > restricted driver manager | 22:38 |

| * fukas thinks it's ATI | 22:38 | |
| branden | it's a generic dell card. | 22:38 |
| Jakob_the_liar | read it ActionParsnip | 22:38 |
| === brandon_ is now known as Trokair | ||
| ActionParsnip | branden: no such thing | 22:39 |
| Jakob_the_liar | i've been going over forums and bug reports for the last week | 22:39 |
| fukas | hmm dell makes video cards? | 22:39 |
| KenBW22 | branden: integrated graphics? | 22:39 |
| ActionParsnip | fukas: no they dont | 22:39 |
| fukas | ActionParsnip:: that's why I'm asking :) | 22:39 |
| jordo2323 | zozobra: That was fine for the first one.... I need to remove both... | 22:39 |
| Randall | Price: I am on Gutsy but anyways how do i install the legacy packages cause i think i tried that | 22:39 |
| branden | Forgive me, I'm quite a noob :] | 22:39 |
| ActionParsnip | branden: run lspci, it'll say what it is | 22:39 |
| branden | How can I check? | 22:39 |
| jordo2323 | zozobra: the second greys that option out | 22:39 |
| ActionParsnip | fukas: im betting its an intel | 22:39 |
| thepeon | Whats the best channel to get networking help for running a dedicated firewall | 22:39 |
| fukas | branden:: that's ok. do lspci | grep -i nvidia | 22:40 |
| fukas | or the same with ati | 22:40 |
| fukas | or with intel | 22:40 |
| fukas | :) | 22:40 |
| ActionParsnip | fukas: lspci | grep -i vga | 22:40 |
| Trokair | Hey guys i have a question as far as the bootload goes. I have 2 hard drives, 1 has windows XP, the other is going to have ubuntu. Im at the point of the installation in the advanced options where it asks for what device for boot load installation. My question is: each drive has a another part of itself (Ex: SDA - WindowsXP, then it has also a SDA-1) what do i install it on | 22:40 |
| fukas | ActionParsnip:: hmm, I bet it's ati | 22:40 |
| Trokair | bootloader* | 22:40 |
| branden | geforce 8600m | 22:40 |
| ActionParsnip | dell loves intel | 22:40 |
| fukas | ActionParsnip:: yea, you're right :) | 22:40 |
| branden | GT | 22:40 |
| fukas | heh | 22:40 |
| fukas | integrated in laptop | 22:40 |
| fukas | then strange... | 22:41 |
| KenBW22 | Trokair: the one that doesnt have XP on | 22:41 |
| fukas | branden:: but, anyway, try to turn compiz off | 22:41 |
| branden | not even sure what that is lol | 22:41 |
| tyronep | ActionParsnip, Dude its happening again even though i eliminated the autostart | 22:41 |
| linuser | fukas who you calling fuckers? | 22:41 |
| fukas | branden:: system->preferences->appearence | 22:41 |
| Trokair | KenBW22 if i install it on the SDB drive, will grub be able to load xp? | 22:41 |
| fukas | linuser:: what? | 22:41 |
| KillerOrca | does anyone know how to rip dvd movies Hard drives? | 22:42 |
| Pici | linuser: Watch the language, thats not needed here. | 22:42 |
| KenBW22 | Trokair: oh you can install on the same drive as Windows, just not the same partition | 22:42 |
| perillux | I want to install windows on a separate partition. I currently have only ubuntu. So I'm wondering, will the windows installation give me the option of creating a separate partition? Or should I create one before I attempt to install? | 22:42 |
| fukas | branden:: affects - none | 22:42 |
| Helminthe | thepeon: I don't think Ubuntu was ever intended to be a firewall solution | 22:42 |
| Pandemic187 | what is the difference between the xfree86 4.x driver and the 173.xx.xx driver...anyone? | 22:42 |
| branden | ty fukas. I will try that. | 22:42 |
| Strife89 | perillux: You should create one yourself. | 22:42 |
| Pandemic187 | err that is, nvidia driver | 22:42 |
| fukas | perillux:: that's a tricky stuff. You have to spare some space BEFORE the installation | 22:42 |
| fukas | branden:: np | 22:43 |
| Helminthe | thepeon: it is Linux, of course, but lacks the configuration options you might want | 22:43 |
| Nvidiot | Pandemic187: 3D support | 22:43 |
| KenBW22 | KillerOrca: dvd::rip | 22:43 |
| Pandemic187 | which is which, nvidiot? | 22:43 |
| fukas | perillux:: be prepared for m$ to kill your boot record | 22:43 |
| Trokair | KenBW22: Ok so what im seeing in the advanced options right now for the windows drive are 2 partitions for it. one called /dev/sda ATA WDC WD3200AAKS-0(298.1 GB) then the theres another /dev/sda1 Microsoft Windows XP Professional | 22:43 |
| Strife89 | perillux: A user-friendly tool for the task is gparted. | 22:43 |
| Trokair | and there is a /dev/sda-1 that is blank | 22:43 |
| perillux | Strife89: fukas: how do I do that? could you either explain it, or link me to something that will explain it? | 22:43 |
| fukas | Strife89:: +1 | 22:43 |
| KenBW22 | sda | 22:43 |
| KillerOrca | KenBW22: yeah, I want to make it so I can do a full disc backup | 22:43 |
| Strife89 | fukas: Sorry..... What?.... | 22:44 |
| KenBW22 | KillerOrca: i use that to rip it to a video ile | 22:44 |
| fukas | perillux:: hmm. start gparted, and decrease size of some volume | 22:44 |
| perillux | fukas: I am aware that grub will break after I install it, and I found a tutorial on how to fix it. I think | 22:44 |
| KenBW22 | Trokair: sda | 22:44 |
| Algyz | perillux, gparted is in ubuntu live cd | 22:44 |
| Nvidiot | Pandemic187: the nvidia driver supports 3D accelleration, the standard "nv" driver does not | 22:44 |
| Trokair | /dev/sda, not /dev/sda1 or /dev/sda-1 right | 22:44 |
| Strife89 | perillux: Type "sudo apt-get install gparted" in a terminal. | 22:44 |
| branden | fukas, it still appears to be glitchy. | 22:44 |
| Trokair | (just double checkng) | 22:44 |
| branden | slowly frame by frame. | 22:44 |
| fukas | Strife89:: +1 for gparted :) | 22:44 |
| KillerOrca | KenBW22: do you know if what is riped can be made into a replacement disc? | 22:45 |
| r00t_ | my coputer has stoped playiung audio correctly,youtube audio sometimes works and mp3/whatever files will also only sometyimes work. | 22:45 |
| Strife89 | Algyz: Yes, but it doesn't get installed onto the HDD. | 22:45 |
| thepeon | Helminthe: I've tryed setting it up with a combination of BIND, Squid, and shorewall firewall | 22:45 |
| Strife89 | fukas: :) | 22:45 |
| fukas | branden:: hmmm. Do you have latest drivers from Nvidia? or do you have them installed at all? try lsmod | grep nvidia | 22:45 |
| KenBW22 | KillerOrca: never tried. You might be better making an ISO maybe? | 22:45 |
| Gork | Is there an openvpn gui for ubuntu? | 22:45 |
| Pandemic187 | Nvidiot: is the xfree86 driver the nv driver? | 22:45 |
| Nvidiot | Pandemic187: yes | 22:45 |
| Pandemic187 | thanks, Nvidiot | 22:46 |
| Nvidiot | Pandemic187: if you want things like Compiz, use the nvidia driver (the restricted driver manager should offer to install it for you) | 22:46 |
| Strife89 | perillux: Be aware that Windows doesn't like to be on anything other than the first partition. | 22:46 |
| branden | nvidia 7825536 36 - i2c_core 24832 1 nvidia - agpgart 34760 2 nvidia,intel_agp | 22:46 |
| branden | fukas ^ | 22:46 |
| fukas | perillux:: I think, that after you install m$, you simply should boot with your live-cd, mount your partitions, chroot into them, and start grub | 22:46 |
| Randall | what is the display supposed to be claimed by if the video card works properly | 22:46 |
| thepeon | Hilminthe: My problem is my Linux box is connecting to the net like it should, but I have a vista machine that's not, but they are configured the same | 22:46 |
| RemsSs | hi everybody | 22:46 |
| Pandemic187 | Nvidiot: Okay - i'm using that one now but i wanted to make sure there isn't a driver that can give me better performance! | 22:46 |
| fukas | branden:: mm and what does lsmod | grep nvidia say? | 22:46 |
| curtmack | okay, I'm trying to install ubuntu, and I like how it automatically detects my previous Debian installation and leaves it alone | 22:46 |
| perillux | Strife89: fukas: so windows will automatically install to the first partition without askin? | 22:47 |
| sambagirl | i am trying to run a .sh file from my desktop | 22:47 |
| sambagirl | how do i do it? | 22:47 |
| sambagirl | i am in the directory where it is in a terminal | 22:47 |
| fukas | perillux:: no. you'll be able to choose one, but it will kill your boot record | 22:47 |

| sambagirl | ahh thianks | 22:47 |
| Strife89 | perillux: It should ask, but it won't really give you much choice. | 22:47 |
| branden | fukas: when I try that it says.. | 22:47 |
| branden | nvidia 7825536 36 - i2c_core 24832 1 nvidia - agpgart 34760 2 nvidia,intel_agp | 22:48 |
| curtmack | and now I have 7 partitions on one hard drive, which each install trying to build off of the previous install.... | 22:48 |
| curtmack | I' | 22:48 |
| frias | asdfasd | 22:48 |
| fukas | branden:: oh, sorry, did not notice it. Then it means, that nvidia driver(or kernel module) is loaded. hmmm that's strange for blinking. One more reason | 22:48 |
| fukas | try to decrease or increase driver version | 22:48 |
| Helminthe | thepeon: the applications you mentioned should work very well in ubuntu, what went wrong? | 22:48 |
| curtmack | I'm trying to repartition everything so that it works again, but fsck keeps saying that /dev/sda is in use, even though I booted from a live CD. None of the partitions are mounted. | 22:49 |
| fukas | branden:: in restricted drivers manager | 22:49 |
| curtmack | Anybody know how I can find out what's monopolizing /dev/sda? | 22:49 |
| tyronep | hello how can i disable compiz from the terminal | 22:49 |

| Shakedown | What are those images called that are in the background when I rotate the desktop cube? And where can I get some? | 22:52 |
| branden | fukas it also says (latest cards) | 22:52 |
| fukas | branden:: and only one version of drivers? | 22:52 |
| branden | it's the only nvidia listed there | 22:52 |
| fukas | as I said, I have 3 in intrepid (8.10) | 22:53 |
| Randall | so how do i figure out what is wrong with my driver/video card since i already now it doesn't work | 22:53 |
| fukas | branden:: may be you have only one | 22:53 |
| fukas | it's possible | 22:53 |
| curtmack | jordo2323: What do you mean by "second" panel anyway? The one on top, or the one on the bottom? | 22:53 |
| branden | when I check synaptic there are several there. I just don't want to go installing everything | 22:53 |
| jordo2323 | curtmack: in this case the top one, from what I have read Ubuntu tries to make you have at least one of the panels, I have already removed the first, but the second has the delete this panel option greyed out. | 22:54 |
| Vinetou | hello | 22:55 |
| perillux | Strife89: fukas: so how do I actually create a new partition. I assume I have to first resize my current one but the resize button is grayed out. | 22:55 |
| Randall | so how do i figure out what is wrong with my driver/video card since i already now it doesn't work | 22:55 |
| Strife89 | perillux: That brings up an issue that I forgot: you can't make changes to a drive that is in use. | 22:55 |
| ripps | Is it possible that DRI2 will be ready for Jaunty Jackalope? | 22:55 |
| Strife89 | perillux: You will have to do it from the Live CD, or something else. | 22:56 |
| fukas | perillux:: hmm it's all up to your fs type. Also, if your partition is MOUNTED, you can't resize it | 22:56 |
| Vinetou | i have downloaded the release candidate of Ubuntu 8.10 and I planning to install in a virtual machine (using VMware) and am currently on Windows | 22:56 |
| fukas | perillux:: I thinkg it's secodn reason. So, as Strife89 said, use live-cd | 22:56 |
| perillux | Strife89: fukas: so could I just right click the partition and choose the unmount option? | 22:56 |
| linuser | using apparmor how big does your syslog get? | 22:56 |
| linuser | as if the constant connection attempts dont make you log big enough apparmor makes it 3x bigger | 22:56 |
| Trokair | KenBW22: Thanks man it worked :) | 22:56 |
| fukas | perillux:: I don't think so, if it's your root partition | 22:56 |
| Strife89 | perillux: No, because Ubuntu is running off it right now. | 22:56 |
| branden | where would you all recommend i start learning about linux? | 22:57 |
| Vinetou | how is the program that checks the integrity of the CD called? | 22:57 |
| Strife89 | fukas: It's his *only* partition. | 22:57 |
| Strife89 | :) | 22:57 |

| perillux | Strife89: fukas: ya, other than swap.. | 22:57 |
| dna_ | Hello, anybody can recommend good software for editing mp3? | 22:57 |

| Vinetou | which version of the Linux kernel is Ubuntu 8.10 going to run on? | 23:04 |
| fukas | :) | 23:04 |
| fukas | Vinetou:: 2.6.27 | 23:05 |
| branden | fukas: do you think downloading the nvidia driver from the website would make any difference? | 23:05 |
| fukas | branden:: I respect gentoo, but it's annoying to compile something all the time. Just as example | 23:05 |
| Vinetou | fukas but The latest stable version of the Linux kernel is: 2.6.27.3 | 23:05 |
| Randall | so how do i figure out what is wrong with my driver/video card since i already now it doesn't work | 23:05 |

| Nvidiot | I see one sensor reporting 84C, and I *think* it's just wrong output, but I'd like to be a bit more sure about that | 23:08 |

| Flannel | tisch: All of the programs in studio are available in the regular repositories, the biggest difference is the realtime kernel. | 23:34 |
| Flare183 | hu? someon ping? | 23:34 |
| Flare183 | someone* | 23:34 |
| Flannel | Flare183: Kristie, regarding top. | 23:34 |

| Flannel | xr0ckstar: Have you tried upgrading to 8.04 from 7.10? It could just be that the installer didn't like your hardware. | 23:34 |
| Kristie | Flannel, hehe...sorry about that, | 23:35 |
| xr0ckstar | have not tried that yet | 23:35 |
| Flannel | Kristie: no worries. | 23:35 |
| Flannel | xr0ckstar: Another thing you might try is switching to the generic kernel for the upgrade, and then going back and trying the realtime kernel. | 23:35 |
| xr0ckstar | ive been reading some forums and some people with laptops had some trouble with 8.04 | 23:35 |
| Flare183 | Kristie: I see, the "top" program lists your top process' and gives tells you how much processor power it is using | 23:35 |
| xr0ckstar | not only myself | 23:35 |
| Flannel | xr0ckstar: I wouldnt know, but #ubuntustudio would be a better place to ask regarding -rt kernel specific issues. | 23:35 |
| xr0ckstar | i was just wondering how to acces beryl/compiz/ or XGL | 23:36 |
| Kristie | Flare183, it's not churning away now, so nothing is coming up that might be hogging resources. is there a way to 'go back in time' to what top would have shown when the machine was churning away? | 23:36 |
| xr0ckstar | i dont see it in my stuido anywhere | 23:36 |
| Flannel | xr0ckstar: It's now compiz-fusion for 8.04, on... 7.10... compiz is in the repositories, I believe. | 23:36 |
| Flare183 | Kristie: Yes, goto the system menu, click adminstrator, and then click system log | 23:36 |
| xr0ckstar | ok ill check the repos | 23:36 |
| Flannel | xr0ckstar: you'll need to install it after the fact, if I remember correctly. | 23:37 |
| Flare183 | Flannel: Yes compiz-fusion is in the repos | 23:37 |
| Flannel | Flare183: no, for 7.10, it wasn't -fusion at that point | 23:37 |
| Flannel | xr0ckstar: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompositeManager/Compiz | 23:37 |
| xr0ckstar | nice | 23:37 |
| aoupi | is there any way to change the icon wallpaper-tray uses in the panel? (looks ugly with the same img as the bakground) | 23:37 |

| aoupi | KillerOrca: it's in the security tab | 23:41 |
| KillerOrca | aoupi: yea, the upgrade makes it autologin to gnome, not xfce like it used to | 23:41 |
| Kristie | Flare183, all that is showing up with the System Log Viewer are a handful of items ending with "MARK --" | 23:42 |
| Flannel | KillerOrca: try changing your default session and GDM | 23:42 |
| aoupi | KillerOrca: when you get the login window just click session and choose xfce before you log in, it should ask if you want xfce to be default | 23:42 |
| Flare183 | Kristie: it should be able to show everything | 23:42 |
| KillerOrca | Flannel: what would I change about GDM? | 23:43 |
| Kristie | Flare183, it isn't ;) | 23:43 |
| bravo7 | How i use Ubuntu to fix my xp hard drive > its have error on volume when it boots | 23:43 |

| philsf | bravo7: you can't. ou must use XP's own utilities for that | 23:44 |
| tha_infamous | needs java runtime enviroment (jre/jdk) 1.5 or higher. If possible, you should use the latest Javaversion. | 23:45 |
| unop | bravo7, there is no guaranteed way to do that with open source utilities - though you could try ntfsfix (from ntfsprogs) but take care using it | 23:45 |
| Flannel | !java | tha_infamous | 23:45 |
| ubottu | tha_infamous: To install a Java runtime/interpreter on Ubuntu, look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java - For the Sun Java runtime install sun-java6-jre from the !Multiverse repository | 23:45 |
| Flannel | tha_infamous: which version of Ubuntu are you using? | 23:45 |

| bravo7_ | Anyone know how i extract booksmark fro firefox from winxp ? | 23:48 |
| curtmack | strictly speaking, it's not a USB stick, it's an MP3 player. But it mounts in UMS, so that shouldn't be a problem. | 23:48 |
| unop | bravo7_, use the bookmark manager to export bookmarks | 23:49 |

| tha_infamous | Flannel i cant open application it sey thet i need java 1.5.0 | 23:51 |
| unop | bravo7_, i'm not sure of the exact location of the mozilla/firefox directory on XP - but it is definitely under the user's homedir (i.e. %userprofile%) - it might be %userprofile%/Application Data/Mozilla/Firefox/<profile>/bookmarks.html | 23:51 |
| Flannel | tha_infamous: Alright, you can install java5 instead: sudo apt-get install sun-java5-jre | 23:51 |
| philsf | bravo7_: is it firefox 2 or 3? | 23:52 |
| bravo7_ | philsf 3 | 23:52 |
| philsf | unop: then it's not bookmarks.html anymore | 23:52 |
| philsf | bravo7_, unop: ff3 uses a new format | 23:52 |
| unop | philsf, iceweasel 3 still uses it - but you may be right as far as firefox on windows is concerned | 23:52 |
| tha_infamous | flannel i got a error MissingFieldException[ The following required field is missing from the launch file: <jnlp>] | 23:53 |

| ryan5620 | dna_ it seems to be a memory hog for me too well on windows | 23:54 |

| bravo7_ | unop thanks | 23:55 |
| Neodemi | is there a quick way to check how much memory programs are using in ubuntu | 23:56 |
| philsf | bravo7_: you could try to get your linux FF3 to use the bookmarks-*.json from your windows profile (by copying it to the linux profile) and if it works, export it to html | 23:56 |
| oOarthurOo | top ? | 23:56 |
