Spaffikonia, n8tuser was asking your advice on a problem I had with drives earlier. We have managed to get a bit further but I am still struggling to get my ubuntu to boot. I now know which drive is which and the order they should boot in but each time I reboot the drives swap round according to fdisk, meaning whatever changes I make to my menu.lst are in vain as the HDD's have switched. Any ideas at all?00:10
TVVCR6I have Logitech X540 speakers00:10
TVVCR6But one thing comes to mind00:10
pumpkinwayneward, afterwards. ... where does gnome store the data to copy on the DVD? there has to be a link-dir somewhere ...00:10
TVVCR6minimec: The 1010LT has multiple outputs00:10
hacked```edd, why not00:10
ikoniaSpaff: your menu.lst should be using uuid's not /dev/sda style entries00:10
wolkihi there, i was wondering whether it is possible to run virtualbox with host networking (I want to put apache etc into the vm) and still have my network managed with networkmanager?00:10
conali'm new to ubuntu.  does anyone have suggestions for dvd video backup/dup software?  something fast and painless.  also, ripping/conversion to standard (non-dvd) would be great.00:10
TVVCR6minimec: the speakers are plugged into line 3/400:10
ikoniaSpaff: that way the uuid makes the disk device not important00:10
toastedmilkGr33n3gg, Okay.  My internet works randomly.  Sometimes when I run Gnome it'll work, but when it's not it still says it's connected.  I haven't tested KDE or Xscript, but I imagine they have the same problem.00:10

ubottuYou can easily fetch a package's source with apt-get. See: http://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/apt-howto/ch-sourcehandling.en.html00:10
zsquarepluscSpaff: isnt that solved by using the uuid instead of the /dev/sdx?00:10
TVVCR6But by default the card outputs to line 1/200:10

apeironwolki, Just set that up today myself. :)00:11
Zzarkc-20Right, so in the partitioning, I don't know how much space I can change on one drive, and I want to use parts of other disks. That's my problem with the install.00:11

SlartFreek: I'd go with 20GB for /, 1xRAM for swap and the rest for /home00:35
Spaffright, anyone? I thought my ubuntu wouldn't load up because my HDD's kept swapping position however my grub menu.lst definitely has the correct UUID of the root partition it should be using therefore the root (hd2,4) shouldn't matter, right? Anyone have any ideas?00:35
FreekWhat about Win2k?00:35
matreya6Slart, I'm trying to tie 2 computers together on their 2nd ethernet devices, using a crosslink cable. As soon as I connect the cable Network Manager deletes my nameserver gateway line00:35

djhashwould ubuntu's performace get squashed if I install 32bit on 64bit system?00:37
BanjoXnot from my experience, djhash00:37
Slartmatreya6: so.. you want computer 2 to use computer 1 for dns resolution?00:37
matreya6djhash, no, but you would be unable to use the 64-bit specific opcodes00:37
zsquarepluscd0nets: you try to share the desktop or a separate vnc server?00:38

mike909anyone have an easy way to make evolution send me email alerts for alarms?00:39
bastiwhat is the easiest/fastest way to move / to another partition? rsync seems to have problems with /proc or can these errors be ignored? do i have to use dd?00:39
zsquarepluscd0nets: instead of that howto.. you can also share your desktop from the system->prefs->.. there you can also set it to no password (but ask user instead)00:39
Slartbasti: you shouldn't be copying /proc00:39
matreya6Slart, no I want the 2nd interface only on IP-level, no dns required there. Still Network Manager seems to freak out when I connect the 2nd interface, thereby disabling DNS resolution for my first interface in the prcess :-(00:39
Slartbasti: it's generated at boot, iirc..00:39
bastiSlart, i just did sudo rsync -va / /media/neuesroot/00:39
djhashbasti: use dd00:39
bastiok00:40
zsquarepluscmatreya6: it runs a zeroconfig network if you use  a cross cable. you'll get a 169... IP, right?00:40
djhashbasti: ofcourse make sure the destination is atleast as large as the source00:40

Gaming4JCIt's changed since 8.04...00:41
matreya6zsquareplusc, No I get the IP-adresses I have assigned manually via ifconfig, namely 10.0.0.1 and 10.0.0.2, with 255.255.255.0 as netmask for both NIC's in both computers00:41
Slartbasti: if I were you I'd start thinking of a way to stop it from copying the /proc tree.. I don't know how to do it though.. perhaps there is a switch to make rsync ignore certain paths or something00:42
bastidd takes a long time, doesnt it? im thinking about reinstalling00:42

Falstiusyoyo: in fstab you can set who can mount and umount a partition, but to actually allow writing and reading you generally need to change the permissions (unless this is a NTFS drive).00:50

alex_Hello. I'm currently on Intrepid Ibex and was wondering if anyone knew about an issue with Intel integrated graphics cards and resuming from Hibernation or Suspend. I can't resume from either, I get to a black screen(no backlight) and can't do a thing except hold down the power button. Ctrl+Alt+Backspace does nothing.01:44

rhsanbornhmm...alright, I've reinstalled network-manager-gnome and network-manager but still nm-applet won't start01:47
I-am-weaselYou can try right click the folder you want to open as root, see if it says "open as root". If NOT,  hit ALT+F2 on your keyboard, and enter:     gksudo nautilus --no-desktop                   you'll have to do this twice to open 2 windows01:47
lianimatorpw-toxic: do you use compiz?01:47
ezzieyguywufEressolar: so the command would look as follows for a .bz2? tar xvjf -C [tar file] [new location[01:47
pw-toxiclianimator: compiz is big ;)01:47

moonlitealso, i couldn't move all of the files since the trashed folder contains 10 GB of files and my disk only has 2.6 gigs left02:20
lianimatorpw-toxic: use the advanced search. very useful!02:20
moonliteor at least that's what i was told. Really weird.02:21
mrocbinarymutant: any suggestions on what to do from here, or is there nothing to be done at this point?02:21
binarymutantmroc, gimmie a sec i02:22
pw-toxiclianimator: i dont know what i should look for ;)02:22
lianimatorpw-toxic: there is a plugin called move window02:22
moonlite(now i moved 1,5 GB of the files from trash to the desktop folder and the size of the disk didn't change. And i don't ave a .Trash-folder either in my home-dir. I really dont understand this :D)02:22
pw-toxiclol!!!!!!!!02:23
binarymutantmroc, git clone http://repo.or.cz/r/accentuate.git02:23
pw-toxiclianimator: my initate window move now got the hotkey <Shift><Controls><Alt><Super>Button102:23
lianimatormoonlite: trash is still stored on your disk.02:23
pw-toxiclianimator: there really seems to be a strange bug ;)02:23
moonlitelianimator: yes of course it is02:23
pw-toxiclianimator: window menu and initate windoe move are coupled ;)02:24
lianimatorpw-toxic: that's a looooong "short" cut02:24
moonlitebut the trash should be stored on the same partition right? making the move instantaneous?02:24
binarymutantmroc, it's just a single python script02:24
lianimatorpw-toxic: should call it longcut02:24
pw-toxiclianimator: yes its a long shortcut, but i havend entered it02:24
pw-toxiclets see what happens if i redefine this hotkey ;)02:24
pw-toxici'll remember strg alt backspace ;)02:24
pw-toxiclianimator: now alt + mouse2 opens the window menu ;)))))))))))))02:25
pw-toxiclianimator: i have just found a bug ;) do you know where i can commit compiz bugs?02:25
mrocbinarymutant: ok, so...is there no compilation?  do i just make it executable and run it?02:25
Dex-FreudiiI was told to Bootup normally and hit e to drop into the terminal, then add profile to the end of my kernel's startup line. How do I add that?02:25
moonlitelianimator: and the thing about me not being able to move stuff from thrash whos sum size is bigger than what my partition is also feels strange (since when i move files with size less than that my free disk space don't change)02:26
lianimatorpw-toxic: are you aware of the button numbers?02:26
binarymutantmroc, it's already executable so just ./accentuate    but it needs python-opengl python-pygame and python-imaging to work, so you'll have to apt-get those dependencies too02:26
tsunamibest bittorrent client for ubuntu??02:26
moonlitegvfs bug perhaps?02:26

lianimatorpw-toxic: try restarting compiz02:27
lianimatorpw-toxic: Alt+F2 then compiz02:27
pw-toxiclianimator: the problem is that if i change the shortcut of "initaite window move" of the "move window" plug-in   the hotkey for the window menu does get changed02:27
Dominik2how can I convert a flash file to pure audio?02:27
IndyGunFreaktsunami: then just use utorrent, it works quite well w/ wine02:27
pw-toxiclianimator: i can only change both hotkeys at the same time ...02:27

mrocbinarymutant: it's an open-gl based presentation software for doing presentations (.pdf and some other formats too i believe).  it's predecessor was very cool, and is available in the repos, but it hasn't been worked on for a while.02:31
pw-toxiclianimator: well, strg + alt + backspace did its work02:31
chaqui1I had it working before, but when I switched resolutions it went blank and I haven't been able to get it to start again02:31
brodymcdoddly enough, Ubuntu 8.10 live cd had wireless right out of the box cranking, but UStudio throwing me this curve... shouldn´t they be the same?02:32
moonliteso the error message i get seems totally bogus. while nautilus at the same time tells me i can't move files bigger than free disk space out of it becaus it, for some reason, thinks my trash is on another partition. That probably is the proble02:32
moonlitevery strange though02:32

jamesishPeddy: I'm not gonna put too fine a point on this. If you think your system is randomly booting different kernels, you're in a world of pain. You can do stuff like fix /boot/grub/menu.lst, but something that fundamental pretty much screams to me that either someone's screwing with you or you hosed your own system.03:24

constantin_but now i cant get to it and havent learned how to install it in ubuntu03:29
jamesishPeddy: it sounds like you've got an old installation of ubuntu somewhere on the same hard drive. When you're entering removable media, your computer is bringing your hard drives up in a different order. So when grub tries to find the boot loader, it's finding one on a different device than your normal default partition.03:29

EJMTecknology: yeah i think i found out what my issue was ... i wasent adding the correct version to the repository03:31
Jeatonok03:31
jamesishPeddy: I'm not sure what the solution is for you, is the thing. The problem isn't having two copies of ubuntu, it's that your devices are being renumbered when you leave a removable device in.03:31
wandanajamesish: Wow, that was quick. Indeed it is here: .config/xm1/texmaker.ini03:32

MTecknologyEJ: congrats03:33
jamesishwandana: you're welcome03:33

ubuntu810noobDoes anyone know why the install for Ubuntu 8.10 on a RAID5 system that uses ICH10R does not recognize the SATA drives?03:35

jamesishUbubegin: cat -n | grep 10 would do for a short file. Otherwise, read the man page for more options. Also look at grep, head and tail.03:35
jamesishPeddy: I'm not sure. You'll have to investigate. Sounds like a good start, but I don't think that's really the core issue. The real core issue is that your devices are being renumbered.03:36

mrocToddEDM1: only a little.  not sure i can help at all.03:54
jamesishTetracomm: You would have to make a deb out of it, I imagine.03:54
FlannelTetracomm: You can't afterwards.  You need to do it beforehand.03:54
Dr_willisTetracomm,  I dont think you do.. theres the 'checkinstall' program that helps ya do that..03:54
Flannel!checkinstall | Tetracomm03:55
ubottuTetracomm: checkinstall is a wrapper to "make install", useful for installing programs you compiled. It will create a .deb package, which will be listed in the APT database and can be uninstalled like other packages. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CheckInstall - Read the warnings at the top and bottom of that web page, and DO NOT interrupt CheckInstall while it's running!03:55
slinkeeyok thanks03:55
eliasp_Tetracomm: no way, 'make install' doesn't work together with the package management... make install just puts the files 'randomly' on your disk...03:55
TetracommOh. :(03:55
slinkeeyI am thinking maybe I should uninstall compiz03:55
slinkeeymaybe my video card does not like it03:55
Dr_willisslinkeey,  just disable it perhaps.03:56
kemalistgood morning03:56
eliasp_Tetracomm: don't install packages using 'make install' unless you really know what you do... else you risk the consistency of your package management03:56

kemalistgreenhog, it must have another name then04:04
ubuntu810noobcchapman: Unfortunately the controller does not seem to be in the kernel04:04
musikgoatJasonF: the php5 package is essential for php support in apache2, not sure about the *filter one04:04
JasonFmusikgoat: I know :) that's the same place I am04:04
cchapmanubuntu810noob: what raid controller are you using04:04
apeironoh bah, short description is too short04:04
Shinj1EVA@apeiron: use ccsm and play around with the settings. there's some things that increase productivity, although it's mostly eye candy.04:04
greenhogkemalist: well.. then how do i find the name of the network card? is it in the dmesg?04:04
ubuntu810noobcchapman: ICH10R04:04
kemalistgreenhog, it must be in "ipconfig" list04:04
musikgoatJasonF: if your just going for a lamp install, don't worry about it04:04
kemalistif it is working04:05
philippe_nsteinme, you probably need to add your monitor vsync and hsync settings in you xorg.conf file04:05
cchapmanubuntu810noob: i had the same problem with the ICH9R04:05

kemalistit should be up, in my case it worked and got its ip on its own04:06
Shinj1EVAapeiron, i think if you're looking productivity, either slide/cube and scale might be it.. i use window previews with AWN too04:06
eliasp_JonathanEllis: if you love your data, take ext3... if you don't care about them, take ReiserFS ;)04:06
ubuntu810noobcchapman: Yeah, found out after I bought it... sigh.04:07

Shinj1EVAsuper + tab is nice, but not all that useful..t here's a ring switcher too04:07

n8tuserJonathanEllis-> just an info on the guy that developed reiserfs has been arrested for murdering his wife..dont know what it will mean04:07

Roastedcchapman - My flash drive works in my XP laptop and Vista desktop. My Vista Desktop also dual boots Ubuntu. So by the flash drive working in Vista, it's obvious it's not a hardware issue. In Ubuntu, Ubuntu recognizes my usb wireless, usb mouse, and usb printer... so my USB ports work fine in Ubuntu. But Ubuntu doesn't recognize my flash drive. sudo fdisk -l, gparted, and sudo modprobe usb-storage yield nothing.04:13

Roastedslimjimflim - chappman was helping me earlier. He gave me some command with var/log/messages, or something like that. It responded when I plugged in the flash drive... so my system was aware of SOMETHING being present. But it never acted as an actual storage device.05:24

milligan_constantin_, as troubled said .. since grub is your boot manager, it's fairly trivial to add an option to boot OSX. You could also check /dev/ for sd* or hd* to identify which partition of the harddrive has osx.07:20

zezuwhat is the best vnc server?  I'm not too concerned about security i'm trying to use it on my intranet and i'm behind NAT and a decent firewall.   I just want my desktop how i see it now on another machine on the network08:37
troubled[c0re]: just seems like you are missing some xauth stuff that should have been handled properly. thinking maybe you are using gdm and it doesnt like letting kde start properly08:37

WIGGMPkOk, ive been reading the reviews, running the LiveCD, etc. But hesitating on upgrading to 8.10.. My laptop just died, bought a new one, running Hardy off the old HD, but the hardware in the new laptop either means I compile a newer kernel and do a bunch of workarounds.. So my question, is how stable is 8.10 and what type of bugs we talking? I just need to do homework + internet + movies on it.. Suggestions, feedback??08:41
Nergothguys, ubuntu server 8.10 has finger server enabled by default? :o08:41
[c0re]troubled, gdm08:41
kindofabuzzlaku, i relally don't know what else, that's all i did to get sound in VLC, is your system sounds on Pulse?08:41
troubledzezu: well, the headless vnc is a real pita to setup for 24/7 running even after reboot, but its nice once its running since you get a normal session display manager login. but you can also run it manually in a shell on that manchine to lauch it one time08:42
troubled[c0re]: okay, try stop gdm with: /etc/init.d/gdm stop08:42
lakukindofabuzz: How do I find that out?08:42
troubled[c0re]: you may see your screen flicker a moment as it switchs to tty7 and back again to kill it08:42
kindofabuzzlaku, system > preferences > sound, that's if you're on Ghome08:42
kindofabuzzgnome08:42
[c0re]troubled, how?08:43
UnknownUser56in menu.lst in /boot/grub/ ,is it 'chainloader+1' or 'chainloader +1' ?08:43
troubled[c0re]: sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop08:43
Nergothguys, has ubuntu server 8.10 finger server enabled by default? i tested my system by nmap and 79 port is open08:43
[c0re]lmao its funny troubled its runs both of them08:43
[c0re]troubled,  yea i did08:43
Nergothguys, has ubuntu server 8.10 finger server enabled by default? i tested my system by nmap and 79 port is open. can I remove fingerd?08:43
