TVVCR6 | minimec: the speakers are plugged into line 3/4 | 00:10 |
ikonia | Spaff: that way the uuid makes the disk device not important | 00:10 |
toastedmilk | Gr33n3gg, 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 |

storrgie | erUSUL: got it, i spelled relatime as realtime | 00:22 |
wayneward | so u fixed it!! | 00:22 |
minimec | TVVCR6: I have no idea... Sorry | 00:22 |
TVVCR6 | :( | 00:22 |
erUSUL | storrgie: :) | 00:22 |
storrgie | erUSUL: best problems are the ones that solve themselves, haha. So now that they are mounted, do i get any indication in my gnome menu? | 00:23 |
Spaff | ikonia, editing my menu.lst to include the stuff from your pastebin, I've got "ro single" after the current UUID, do I want to keep or bin this? | 00:24 |
erUSUL | storrgie: you shouldn't. it was what you wanted no? if you want them to appear on Places and the like mount them in /media/ | 00:24 |
pumpkin | wayneward, i will trust the burn tool AFTER i checked the disc with another PC. | 00:24 |
matreya6 | I'm trying to connect 2 computers running intrepid with a crossover ethernet cable to the 2nd nic of both machines. Both NIC's are crossover sensing. IP-addresses set to 10.0.0.1 /255.255.255.0 and 10.0.0.2 respectively. After I connect the cable Internet on the pc with 10.0.0.2 cuts out. How can I do this properly? | 00:24 |
blinkn1 | if you had 3 hard drives 300GB,250GB (sata) and 500GB(sata) whcih would be best to install ubuntu with mybuntu ? | 00:24 |
storrgie | erUSUL: can I make a 'shortcut' to them? | 00:24 |
Gaming4JC | ahem... so how do I dialup on 8.10? | 00:24 |
wayneward | going to reboot into another kernel BRB... bloody skipping is driving me mad!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! | 00:24 |
erUSUL | storrgie: yep you can symlink to your destop if you want. | 00:24 |
linxeh | matreya6: Im guessing, but perhaps you've got conflicting default routes set up on the two interfaces or something | 00:24 |
matreya6 | Gaming4JC, through ppp | 00:24 |
Gaming4JC | matreya6: It's not like 8.04, how do I access ppp? | 00:25 |
Gaming4JC | I usually use the gnome Network Configuration | 00:25 |
ColOfNature | 8: can i make my bash terminal maximized by default? | 00:25 |
TVVCR6 | What the hell? | 00:25 |
TVVCR6 | I can't log in as root. Can someone help me? | 00:26 |
SexyJames1337 | When i install icon theme packs, it doesnt skin all icons e.g. for firefox, even though it comes with those applicable icons. It only skins some. What could be the problem? | 00:26 |
Slart | ColOfNature: I'm sure you've already seen this forum thread... I mean.. since it was the first hit when I googled... http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=482203... oh.. and I think it's mentioned in the man page too.. | 00:26 |
erUSUL | !root | TVVCR6 | 00:26 |
ubottu | TVVCR6: Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth... there is no root password. Then you will see that it is 'sudo' that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo | 00:26 |
matreya6 | Gaming4JC, do you have a working driver for your modem? | 00:26 |
minimec | TVVCR6: sudo -i | 00:26 |
TVVCR6 | oops | 00:26 |
TVVCR6 | Thanks | 00:26 |
user777 | is there a way to import/transfer the customized appearance settings of one user to a livecd so those cutom appearances will be there when booting from the cd? | 00:26 |
splinter | is there a good cd label maker for ubuntu 8.10? | 00:26 |
matreya6 | linxeh: both default routes are set to my adsl router | 00:27 |
Spreadsheet | splinter: CD Labels? like lightscribe? | 00:27 |
ColOfNature | Slart: no, obviously my google-fu sucks. thanks. | 00:27 |
Spreadsheet | i believe they have something on Lucenta (or something) | 00:27 |
Gaming4JC | matreya6: I've been using Ubuntu 8.04, yes. It's a Linux Hardware Modem by Trendnet from New Egg. All I need to know is how to Dial up via the normal (but now updated) System->Administration->Network. | 00:27 |
erUSUL | storrgie: but if you want them to appear on your desktop is easier to just mount them under /media/ | 00:27 |
erUSUL | storrgie: instead of /mnt/ | 00:27 |
`vip | quick question, thinking of switching back to nix, but need to know if I can use internet sharing from my tmobile wing | 00:27 |
TVVCR6 | Now it's not letting me cd to the desktop | 00:27 |
rdz | ikonia, you still awake? | 00:28 |
splinter | Spreadsheet, no, like a normal label maker that you can make 2 offset labels one at a time .. | 00:28 |
Spreadsheet | oh | 00:28 |
Spreadsheet | i dont know | 00:28 |
matreya6 | Gaming4JC, is there any row referring to your modem in Network Manager? | 00:28 |
mike909 | anyone have an easy way to make evolution send me email alerts for meetings? | 00:28 |
rdz | ikonia, i accidently solved the acpi-cpufreq compiling issue.. i just symlinked Module.symvers from linux-headers-$VERSION to linux-source-$VERSION | 00:28 |
Slart | `vip: tmobile wing??.. you can use your computer as a router if you want that.. type !ics here in the channel for some bot goodness | 00:28 |

SexyJames1337 | I'm trying to install icon theme packs but they only skin some icons, not all even though the packs contain the icons for those applicable programs/folders etc. Can anyone help? | 00:29 |
Gaming4JC | I'm going to do a manual terminal command and see if I can't get to it... | 00:29 |
`vip | slart, the reason i ask is because I dont have internet where i live. my wife and i sold out house to move in with her parents so my wife can take care of her father while her mother works ... and my mother in law doesnt see it fit to have an internet connection because she is technology disabled | 00:29 |
`vip | :l | 00:29 |
Gaming4JC | brb | 00:29 |
wayneward | seems slicker on the 2.6.27-8-generic kernel | 00:30 |
`vip | so right now my only inet connection is through my phone, which isnt that slow | 00:30 |
wayneward | no skipping so far...... | 00:30 |
CarlFK | what is the .deb to install flash in firefox? | 00:30 |
Qster | i need a script to be run on boot before login what is the best way i go about this? its just executing a program | 00:30 |
wayneward | i think its the kernel 2.6.27-7-eeepc-lean kernel | 00:30 |
CarlFK | flashplugin-nonfree i thik... | 00:30 |
Slart | `vip: ahh.. now I see.. yes that should work.. if you can get ubuntu to talk to the phone and get it connected that way you can share that connection to other computers on a local lan or something | 00:31 |
djhash | how can I compare 2 text files | 00:31 |
Freek | What file systems should I use when partitioning my hard drive for \, home, and swap? | 00:31 |
`vip | Slart, ok ... because now with windows i just plug it in via USB, and click connect | 00:31 |
wayneward | ill just compile the mad wifi driver and use the stock ubuntu kernel i think its fixed it!!!!!!! | 00:31 |
wayneward | great | 00:31 |
ColOfNature | Slart: actually, i had seen it elsewhere and it doesn't answer the question. I want to start the terminal maximized; ie not at a particular size but at the maximum size | 00:32 |
lindenle | is g++-3.4 not in ibex? | 00:32 |
CarlFK | Freek: ext3 for / and home, swap for swap | 00:32 |
Spreadsheet | lindenle: no | 00:32 |
Spreadsheet | its not o_0 | 00:32 |
Spreadsheet | i had to apt-get it | 00:32 |
Freek | There's a "swap" file system? | 00:32 |
lindenle | Spreadsheet: from where | 00:32 |
Slart | `vip: the hard part is getting the internet connection working on the phone.. I use my mobile phone for internet connection from my laptop and it works.. but it took a while and several phone calls to my mobile phone carrier before I found someone that at least understood what I was asking about | 00:32 |
matreya6 | How do I get Network Manager to delete lines in /etc/resolv.conf? I made the file unwritable by root, but still that line gets deleted. | 00:32 |

Slart | `vip: you're welcome and good luck | 00:33 |
Slart | matreya6: what are you trying to do? use a special dns-server before using one of the dhcp supplied ones? | 00:34 |
Freek | I have a 40 GB hard drive | 00:34 |
mike909 | anyone have an easy way to make evolution send me email alerts for meetings? | 00:34 |

SexyJames1337 | hi, im trying to install icon theme packs but they wont skin all of the icons on my pc, only some, even though the packs contain those icons. what could be the problem? | 00:35 |
Slart | Freek: I'd go with 20GB for /, 1xRAM for swap and the rest for /home | 00:35 |
Spaff | right, 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 |
Freek | What about Win2k? | 00:35 |
matreya6 | Slart, 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 line | 00:35 |
d0nets | hey if i followed this tutorial ( http://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&ct=res&cd=3&url=http%3A%2F%2Flifehacker.com%2Fsoftware%2Fhow-to%2Fset-up-vnc-on-ubuntu-in-four-steps-317125.php&ei=ug0iSduSE5y-MbvZme0J&usg=AFQjCNH5iPzCq9tIcLeaDymmi57wlkVbrA&sig2=JSJ0r4VzHfAd-k5Yate5Qw ) | 00:36 |
d0nets | how do i remove the password | 00:36 |
d0nets | im trying to test out android-vnc-viewer | 00:36 |
d0nets | but it doesnt have password support yet | 00:36 |
elementz_ | how do i 'echo' to /proc/acpi/ibm/bluetooth ? doing it via 'sudo echo "disable" > bluetooth' gives me a permission denied... | 00:36 |
Slart | Freek: ah..I think I'd put /home and / on the same partition.. due to the size constraints.. so 20 for /, 1xRAM for swap and the rest for win2k | 00:37 |
djhash | would ubuntu's performace get squashed if I install 32bit on 64bit system? | 00:37 |
BanjoX | not from my experience, djhash | 00:37 |
Slart | matreya6: so.. you want computer 2 to use computer 1 for dns resolution? | 00:37 |
matreya6 | djhash, no, but you would be unable to use the 64-bit specific opcodes | 00:37 |
zsquareplusc | d0nets: you try to share the desktop or a separate vnc server? | 00:38 |
djhash | matreya6: and I guess if I have to ask what are those.. then it shouldn't matter right :-) | 00:38 |
BanjoX | lol | 00:39 |
mike909 | anyone have an easy way to make evolution send me email alerts for alarms? | 00:39 |
basti | what 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 |
zsquareplusc | d0nets: 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 |
Slart | basti: you shouldn't be copying /proc | 00:39 |
matreya6 | Slart, 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 |
Slart | basti: it's generated at boot, iirc.. | 00:39 |
basti | Slart, i just did sudo rsync -va / /media/neuesroot/ | 00:39 |
djhash | basti: use dd | 00:39 |
basti | ok | 00:40 |
zsquareplusc | matreya6: it runs a zeroconfig network if you use a cross cable. you'll get a 169... IP, right? | 00:40 |
djhash | basti: ofcourse make sure the destination is atleast as large as the source | 00:40 |
Slart | matreya6: nggh.. it's to late at night (or early in the morning) for those kinds of problems =) | 00:40 |
basti | sure... | 00:40 |
Gaming4JC | ok I just tried connecting using pppconfig, but that didn't work. Can I DIAL-UP using PPP with my working SERIAL MODEM... in the NETWORK MANAGER. Please let me know. :) | 00:41 |
Gaming4JC | It's changed since 8.04... | 00:41 |
matreya6 | zsquareplusc, 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 computers | 00:41 |
Slart | basti: 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 something | 00:42 |
basti | dd takes a long time, doesnt it? im thinking about reinstalling | 00:42 |
Falstius | *sigh* just upgraded to Intrepid and gdm isn't coming up. What is Rgbpath and why is it in my xorg.conf file (I didn't put it there)? | 00:42 |
calwig | Jordan_U: im here | 00:42 |
calwig | Jordan_U: read your comment, im on 8.04 | 00:42 |
matreya6 | zsquareplusc, basically I want this 2nd (Gigabit) connection to transfer my files from my old box to my spanking new one, since my external HDD drive kicked the can. | 00:42 |
jabagawee | hey guys, the screen resolution administration applet ain't giving me the full 1920x1080 resolution i know my tv can do, instead giving me the danged 1280x1024 res it's used to. any way to fix it without delving into xorg.conf? | 00:42 |
Gaming4JC | matreya6: Any idea on how to Dial-Up through the Network Manager? My Modem has always been supported before, even on ye'ol Red Hat! | 00:43 |
Gaming4JC | :) | 00:43 |
matreya6 | zsquareplusc, I don't have a Gigabit switch and I'd like some when transfering all thos files | 00:43 |
storrgie | erUSLA gone? | 00:43 |
rdz | hi all. is it true that -rt kernels don't support smp? | 00:43 |
storrgie | :( | 00:43 |
Gaming4JC | ... | 00:44 |
zsquareplusc | mantequilla: if its the only connection, just leaving everything on automatic should get you a zerconf network. but you mention 2 network interfaces in the pc | 00:44 |
storrgie | anyone really familiar with network manager? | 00:44 |
matreya6 | Gaming4JC, as you might have seen, I'm not to keen on Network Manager, I always configure interfaces via configuration files if possible. | 00:44 |
matreya6 | Gaming4JC, in short: 'No I don't know how to do that" | 00:45 |
yoyo | hey guy as far as fstab...how do i make it so I dont have to be root to edit the files in the drives I mount in media....like right now when i try to cut and paste something from one drive to another i have to sudo nautilus it | 00:45 |
Gaming4JC | ok... | 00:45 |
matthew | hi | 00:46 |
zsquareplusc | i dont seem to have the network manager in the settings... | 00:46 |
tom__ | hi | 00:46 |
matthew | how you all | 00:46 |
tom__ | does anyone have a nds r4 | 00:46 |
Gaming4JC | I'll keep messing around with Gnome-ppp. I'm pretty saddened by the lack of Dial-Up support in Interpred. Hardy was better. | 00:47 |
matthew | yes | 00:47 |
lazukars | Where would you find drivers for the Intel® P45 + ICH10R Chipset? | 00:47 |
tom__ | where do u download roms | 00:47 |
tom__ | ? | 00:47 |
droids- | how do i change my default nickname for irssi? | 00:47 |
lazukars | droids- /nick whatever | 00:47 |
Falstius | yoyo: if the drive is formatted ext3, you need to use chmod. | 00:48 |
matreya6 | zsquareplusc, That's promising, I run the Firestarter firewall, could that have to do something with what I'm experiencing right now? | 00:48 |
tom__ | how can i remove ubuntu? | 00:48 |
Gaming4JC | brb again >_< | 00:48 |
matthew | under google | 00:48 |

Jordan_U | calwig: Can you try the backported libdvdnav from the ppa mentioned in the bug report? | 00:48 |
TVVCR6 | How do I restart xserver? | 00:48 |
matreya6 | tom_, What part of ubuntu do you want to remove, the bootloader? | 00:48 |
TVVCR6 | Well, the graphics thingy | 00:48 |
TVVCR6 | Wasn't it init 1? | 00:48 |
yoyo | Falstius: theres nothing i can set in the fstab to give root privledges? Also how do i use chmod? | 00:48 |
lazukars | Motherboard drivers for Linux (Ubuntu). Where do you find them? | 00:48 |
TVVCR6 | !xserver | 00:48 |
ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about xserver | 00:48 |
TVVCR6 | !sorg | 00:49 |
ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about sorg | 00:49 |
TVVCR6 | !xorg | 00:49 |
Falstius | TVVCR6: ctrl-alt-backspace | 00:49 |
ubottu | The X Window System is the part of your system that's responsible for graphical output. To restart your X, type « sudo /etc/init.d/?dm restart » in a console - To fix screen resolution or other X problems: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Config/Resolution | 00:49 |
zsquareplusc | matreya6: i don't think that writes resolv.conf, or does it? | 00:49 |
TVVCR6 | Sorry, meant xorg | 00:49 |
matreya6 | TVVCR6, try Ctrl + [Backspace] | 00:49 |
TVVCR6 | Thanks | 00:49 |
matthew | xsorg is part of linux | 00:49 |
TVVCR6 | yep | 00:49 |
droids- | lazukars: i mean, it won't let me connect because i have an 'erroneous nickname', and since i'm not connected, it won't let me /nick to change it. | 00:49 |
Falstius | yoyo: 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 |
matreya6 | zsquareplusc, I'm just pulling at straws I guess :-/ | 00:50 |
tom__ | how can i remonve ubuntu? | 00:50 |
matthew | has anyone got an old computer i can do up | 00:50 |
Falstius | yoyo: for chmod, it would be something like chmod a+rwX /media/disk but you should check the man page. | 00:50 |
tom__ | how can i install windows and take away ubuntu\ | 00:50 |
rhsanborn | Does the new network manager with gnome support ndiswrapper? | 00:50 |
matthew | yep | 00:50 |

tom__ | help | 00:50 |
tom__ | how? | 00:50 |
Falstius | tom__: do you know how to install windows? | 00:50 |
the99zChris | hey i switched to xfce to lower system demand and my volume buttons no longer work (laptop), play stop for. rev. still work though - and opening gome volume control doesn't change anything | 00:50 |
ohubuntu | this is weird. or maybe not, hoping for an explanation... i can't type in 'transparent' anywhere in firefox without it closing, i can't save a file called 'transparent' without the associated ap closing... is it normal? | 00:50 |
tom__ | no | 00:50 |
thiebaude | tom_:install windows | 00:51 |
tom__ | how | 00:51 |
Falstius | tom__: then you're in the wrong place. | 00:51 |
matthew | yes you can install windows on a top of it | 00:51 |
tom__ | wait | 00:51 |
tom__ | i klnow how | 00:51 |
Jordan_U | tom__: Ask in ##windows for help installing windows | 00:51 |
tom__ | but | 00:51 |
tom__ | it wont work | 00:51 |
matthew | i love windows 98 | 00:51 |
matthew | and xp home | 00:51 |
zsquareplusc | matthew: because of teh viri? ;-) | 00:51 |
matreya6 | tom_: thw Windows installer gives you ample opportunity to remove the linux partititions so you can reclaim the space. This has to be done in the screen where setup asks you which disk to use as system disk. | 00:52 |
tom__ | ok | 00:52 |
droids- | lazukars: never mind. just realized that it was on the man page. | 00:52 |

matthew | i have a AMD atlion Dual Core 2.9 Ghz System cool ah and about 512 of ram | 00:57 |
Falstius | xiangfu: some ati cards have a virtual desktop limit of 2048x2048. So you might have to put one monitor logically above the other. | 00:57 |
xiangfu | Falstius: i will google that. thanks. | 00:58 |
matreya6 | rhsanborn, Thanks for the link, it's a nice thoughtful cartoon | 00:58 |
matthew | i am going to make a new computer up next year useing ubuntu | 00:58 |
Krzysztof | I need huge help. | 00:59 |
binarymutant | xkcd is the best comic on the net btw!! | 00:59 |
matthew | dual screen as well | 00:59 |
bazaab | Question - Can you directly upgrade the 32bit version of Ubuntu to the 64bit version? | 00:59 |
matthew | yes | 00:59 |
Falstius | xiangfu: there is actually a pretty good writeup in the thinkwiki wiki. | 00:59 |
matreya6 | Krysztof: Just ask your question | 00:59 |
Krzysztof | I need to reinstall Ubuntu on my laptop (which as a G-book). So I put the Ubuntu ISO on a CD-R disk. | 00:59 |
matthew | as long you have a 64bit computer | 00:59 |
storrgie | I need some help from someone who understands networkmanager | 00:59 |
Krzysztof | And when I put it on my laptop...It goes to the screen. Language. | 01:00 |
bazaab | matthew: I do. I installed the 32b version because of Adobe Flash | 01:00 |
Jordan_U | !ask | storrgie | 01:00 |
ubottu | storrgie: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line, so others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) | 01:00 |
Krzysztof | I choose English and then it loads, and loads, and loads. | 01:00 |
calwig | Jordan_U: sure i can, how do i do that. go thru synaptic | 01:00 |
rhsanborn | bazaab, beta at best, but I think adobe release the 64 bit linux version today | 01:00 |
Krzysztof | And then it comes to this weird background and then the mouse pointer goes crazy and it freezes. | 01:00 |
matthew | how much ram do you have ? | 01:00 |
Krzysztof | Me? | 01:01 |
matthew | yep | 01:01 |
matreya6 | Krzysztof, ah sounds like you have an nVidia card, right? | 01:01 |
storrgie | Jordan_U: you dont understand, i have been at this networking issue for 9 nights, its due to network manager, I just need someone who understands how it works | 01:01 |
Krzysztof | Not a clue, I'd have to look up the specifications on the internet. | 01:01 |
Falstius | rhsanborn: alpha, and that is by adobe standards. | 01:01 |
Krzysztof | I do, Materya. | 01:01 |
Krzysztof | Wai | 01:01 |
nintendork32 | firefox isnt working any help? | 01:01 |
Krzysztof | Wait* | 01:01 |

rhsanborn | Falstius, corrected | 01:01 |
BanjoX | I need to install 8.10 on my laptop, I can barely boot from cd (drive on last leg)..I am in ubuntu with live cd now, as soon as the installer starts reading files from cd it errors (i/o, cd drive failure)..so, can I run ubiquity with an option to install from iso? | 01:01 |
SilentDis | hello. Odd one here. I have a DVD with both UDF and ISO sets (the new Wrath of the Litch King Expansion for World of Warcraft). Ubuntu auto mounted it as UDF (for mac). what filesystem am I looking to mount this on? | 01:01 |
Krzysztof | I believe I do @ Mater. | 01:02 |
nintendork32 | it opens and has a tab on the toolbar saying "Strating firefox" but then it closes | 01:02 |
Jordan_U | storrgie: No harm in asking your question, pastebin it if you don't want to keep typing an explanation over and over | 01:02 |
calwig | Jordan_U: will have to read this issue a bi more proabably later, i must get going now, but it seems like it could work somehow :) will you be here perhaps another time, tomorrow? i could use the help from a good peasant :) | 01:02 |

Spaff | right, 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? | 01:02 |
SilentDis | blinkn1: no idea, can't get the DVD mounted right to perform the install lol | 01:02 |
matreya6 | Krzysztof, Do you see alternating dirty green lines? | 01:02 |
Jordan_U | calwig: I will probably be here tomorrow | 01:02 |

Krzysztof | Matreya6: When I insert the disk, choose, a language and let it run? Or just press the on button/ | 01:03 |
matreya6 | Krzysztof, try F4 first to change it to safe mode first. | 01:03 |
SilentDis | blinkn1: it's mounting the Mac side of the DVD, i need it to mount the 'windows' side, or, more specifically, whatever the name for 'iso' on a DVD is :) | 01:03 |
matthew | do you people live in new zealand | 01:04 |
calwig | Jordan_U: will do, thanks then, should i read something before i install it from the backported reps? | 01:04 |
Krzysztof | Matreya: When I just press the on button? | 01:04 |

mneptok | SilentDis: how do you plan to run the Mac installer if you *do* mount it? | 01:04 |
matreya6 | Krzysztof, no, are you running the Live CD? | 01:04 |
SilentDis | mneptok: that's the problem. I need to mount the windows side. ubuntu is automounting the mac side | 01:04 |
Jordan_U | calwig: No, just don't update any other packages while you have that repository enabled, and if it breaks something then remove the repo and re-install the standard package | 01:05 |
mneptok | SilentDis: side? or session? | 01:05 |

Krzysztof | Matreya: I WAS running a disk that I burned and mounted an ISO on. But if I don't have that in the disktray when I turn on my computer it goes to a MemTest 0.86 or something that effect. | 01:05 |
marcelo | does anyone know the difference between the envy NVidia driver and the default restricted that Ubuntu installs? | 01:05 |
Krzysztof | 1.70 | 01:05 |
Jordan_U | marcelo: Envy will always install the latest driver available | 01:06 |
SilentDis | mneptok: blizzard puts out a 'universal' disk that will mount under windows and mac, but with different file systems and files for each, to allow both mac and windows users to use the same disk. ubuntu has taken it upon itself to mount the mac version, and i can't remember how to mount a dvd like this on the windows side instead. | 01:06 |
marcelo | Jordan_U, hmm, thanks | 01:06 |
calwig | Jordan_U: ok ill have a look, although i dont have a movie to try anymore so i will have to see perhaps buy one | 01:06 |

matreya6 | Krzysztof, first of all, press F4. a popup menu should open, allowing you to select the safe graphics mode, aftter you have selcted that, just go to the row that starts with Try... | 01:13 |

SilentDis | apeiron: yeah, apparently they throw it into hidden. windows ignores it and just reads it anyway, whereas mac (and linux) respect the flag lol | 01:15 |

I-am-weasel | You 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 windows | 01:47 |
lianimator | pw-toxic: do you use compiz? | 01:47 |
ezzieyguywuf | Eressolar: so the command would look as follows for a .bz2? tar xvjf -C [tar file] [new location[ | 01:47 |
pw-toxic | lianimator: compiz is big ;) | 01:47 |

zoot_ | Indy: I think it is, but that was my first suggestion for him. Do you know what it would be called in the eee BIOS or what tab it would be under? | 01:56 |
zoot_ | he's a little skittish about tinkering with his BIOS | 01:56 |
damijit | I want to get rid of my windows partition, and make everything ubuntu. I have just one fear: Will ubuntu music players be able to 1. Play DRM-locked music (such as music bought from iTunes store) and 2. Sync with my iPod? | 01:56 |
toastedmilk | jrib, thanks for the tip! | 01:56 |
krishna | how do i register my nickname | 01:56 |
=== heHATEme is now known as vorian |
serpico | кто нибудь по русски разговаривает? | 01:57 |
crimsun | damijit: 1) not by default, no. 2) yes, given the music is DRM-stripped prior. | 01:57 |
KillerOrca | damijit why don't you just remove the DRM? | 01:57 |
zoot_ | @free- that's a good question | 01:57 |
I-am-weasel | !ru | serpico .... I think it's russian anyway :P | 01:57 |
ubottu | serpico .... I think it's russian anyway :P: Пожалуйста посетите #ubuntu-ru для получения помощи на русском языке / Pozhalujsta posetite #ubuntu-ru dlya polucheniya pomoshi na russkom yazyke | 01:57 |
damijit | how would I go about removing DRM? And will I still be able to use apple's interface for my iPod (on my iPod, not my computer)? | 01:57 |
Great_Gatsby | ever since i updated to hardy firefox is taking incredibly long to load | 01:58 |
shadowwulf_ | jrib, http://paste.ubuntu.com/73612/ | 01:58 |
pw-toxic | lianimator: i think i have t reset compiz.... | 01:58 |
KillerOrca | damijit since you're not changing anything on the iPod it will stay the same | 01:58 |
pw-toxic | lianimator: i cant do anyhting anymore because wheni use left click on a window, he wants to drag the window isntead of clicking onto it | 01:58 |
pw-toxic | lianimator: how can i reset this? | 01:59 |
pw-toxic | lianimator: ah if i click altGr i can click somewhere in the window | 01:59 |

ubottu | Vai su #ubuntu-it se vuoi parlare in italiano, in questo canale usiamo solo l'inglese. Grazie! (click col tasto destro sul nome del canale per entrare) | 01:59 |
lianimator | pw-toxic: how did you configure the key? | 02:00 |
jrib | shadowwulf_: http://paste.ubuntu.com/73615/ | 02:00 |
lianimator | pw-toxic: you should revert. use the keyboard to config it | 02:00 |
EJ | ok silly question here, i just installed vnc server on 8.10 Desktop ... where is the start up file located and or how do i start it ? | 02:00 |
jlc | EJ: vncserver :10 | 02:00 |
KillerOrca | damijit Requiem is what I hear is popular to remove the DRM without burning CDs | 02:01 |
chaqui1 | how can I start a game in a particular resolution? | 02:01 |
lianimator | pw-toxic: use the keyboard keys, up down, tab, etc. to reset the keys to default | 02:01 |
jlc | vnc4server or tightvncserver | 02:01 |
jlc | depends on what is there I guess | 02:01 |
TopBunny88 | Ubuntu rocks | 02:01 |
pw-toxic | lianimator: i just used "deactivated" for "window menu" in : compiz Manager -> general options -> general -> window menu | 02:01 |
pw-toxic | lianimator: thats the only thing i have changed... it it still doesnt work | 02:01 |
passive | Any one have successful BearShare v7 installation ? | 02:01 |
pw-toxic | lianimator: it really looks like my ALT key is bugge, because aund alt + mouse1 i have the drag | 02:02 |
pw-toxic | lianimator: if i press altGr + mouse1 now, it works like i would press mouse1 only normally | 02:02 |
lianimator | pw-toxic: you can try disabling compiz first. metacity --replace | 02:02 |
pw-toxic | lianimator: i think i have found a bug within compiz | 02:03 |
pw-toxic | lianimator: if i change the option of "window menu" to "<Super>Button1" instead of "deactivated" everything works well | 02:03 |
lianimator | pw-toxic: then reset the shortcuts. | 02:03 |
zoot_ | has anyone here used "eee-control"? http://greg.geekmind.org/eee-control/ | 02:03 |
zoot_ | looks like this might help getting all the hardware going | 02:04 |
lianimator | pw-toxic: okay. you found a work-around | 02:04 |

mroc | hi all. can anyone point me to a resource that explains how to build something from a git repository? a fork of keyjnote was created under the name "accentuate" but there don't appear to be any packages anywhere. i'm somewhat new at building things from source code. | 02:07 |
TVVCR6 | How do I get to the task manager in linux? | 02:07 |
krishna | u can chenge the gw by this: sudo route add gefault gw 192.168.x.x | 02:07 |
TVVCR6 | It's like the thing in windows | 02:07 |
aeshan | i tried to change it via the GUI but no cigar | 02:07 |
oly562 | TVVCR6: ? | 02:07 |
lianimator | TVVCR6: click the system monitor applet on your panel | 02:07 |
aeshan | TVVCR6: gefault or default? | 02:07 |
oly562 | TVVCR6: you mean list processes? ps -ax | 02:07 |
TVVCR6 | lianimator: Hyh? | 02:07 |
TVVCR6 | *huh? | 02:07 |
pw-toxic | lianimator: lol my pc just totally froze :D i couldnt use any key or any mouse to do anything ;) even the console (strg + alt + 1) didnt work ;) | 02:07 |
oly562 | or use Top | 02:07 |
alang | Hello | 02:07 |
TVVCR6 | lianimator: Where is that? | 02:07 |
lianimator | TVVCR6: type Alt+F2 then system-monitor | 02:08 |
mroc | TVVCR6: it's the system monitor - you can add it to the panel or you can get it from System => Administration => System Monitor | 02:08 |
shadowwulf | jrib ok i kind of see my desktop now... but the colors are still not right | 02:08 |
philippelhu | new to ubuntu and trying to set my iiyama crt monitor. I cannot find the driver and the generic driver does not allow me to go higher than 800*600 pixels, which is too low. Any idea? (My card is Geforce2) thanks | 02:08 |
TVVCR6 | mroc: Thank you :) | 02:08 |
shadowwulf | jrib, but i can see the desktop in false colors | 02:08 |
mroc | TVVCR6: welcome. | 02:09 |
krishna | lianimator: thats what im confused | 02:09 |
LF|Irssi | htop is better than system-monitor , it doesnt take up 40% CPU :P | 02:09 |
TVVCR6 | mroc: How exactly do I add it to the panel | 02:09 |
jrib | shadowwulf: I don't know then. Does it work okay in other OSs like windows? | 02:09 |
aeshan | <TVVCR6> : does the command only work after restarting the PC? | 02:09 |
lianimator | pw-toxic: kill compiz! | 02:09 |
shadowwulf | jrib, it does | 02:09 |
woody86 | does anyone know how to setup ekiga for my voip account? | 02:09 |
TVVCR6 | aeshan: Huh? | 02:09 |
aeshan | <TVVCR6> sudo route add gefault gw 192.168.x.x | 02:09 |
jrib | shadowwulf: it's not a resolution problem right? | 02:09 |
binarymutant | in xchat, whats this red line going across mean? | 02:10 |
TVVCR6 | ...? | 02:10 |
mroc | TVVCR6: right click on a blank part of the panel and there's an "Add to Panel" option. in the window that pops up, one of the options in the list is the System Monitor. choose to add that, and then you can move it around by right clicking on the new icon in the panel and choosing "Move" | 02:10 |
shadowwulf | jrib, no it is not | 02:10 |
jrib | shadowwulf: try asking the channel again. I don't have any ideas | 02:10 |
shadowwulf | jrib, the monitors can handle the resolution | 02:10 |
TVVCR6 | mroc: thanks | 02:10 |
mroc | TVVCR6: no problem. | 02:10 |
shadowwulf | jrib, thanks for the help | 02:10 |
TVVCR6 | I'm a bit rusty. I haven't used any linux version in over 2 years :s | 02:10 |
Dr_willis | binarydigit, its like a history tag.. if you go to other windows.. it shows where you were at when you left.. | 02:10 |
binarymutant | Dr_willis, thats cool, but why only certain channels? | 02:11 |
Dr_willis | binarymutant, i see it in all channels... | 02:11 |
shadowwulf | can somebody help me with 8.10 and nvidia drivers .. i see my desktop in false colors .. but no text ... | 02:11 |
chaqui1 | what's htop? | 02:11 |
binarymutant | chaqui1, a better replacement for top | 02:12 |
Great_Gatsby | i can hear my typing in my speakers | 02:12 |
binarymutant | Great_Gatsby, you can probably turn that off in the bios | 02:12 |
Great_Gatsby | it just started once i upgraded to hardy | 02:12 |
binarymutant | Dr_willis, i'm not seeing it in this chan and in #debian on oftc.net, it's weirding me out :/ | 02:13 |
break_free | Great_Gatsby, you can hear your typing? Sounds like your mic is on or something | 02:13 |
Great_Gatsby | i dont have a mic | 02:13 |
Great_Gatsby | im on a laptop | 02:13 |
Dr_willis | My Laptops hjave built in mics | 02:14 |
binarymutant | Great_Gatsby, my laptop will make a sound for typing, you can turn it off in the bios | 02:14 |
break_free | Great_Gatsby, are you sure? A lot of lappy's have built in mics | 02:14 |
break_free | oh, weird | 02:14 |
Great_Gatsby | every time i hit enter or space i here a blip | 02:14 |
Great_Gatsby | this is an old laptop | 02:14 |
Great_Gatsby | theres no mic | 02:14 |
binarymutant | mine is too | 02:14 |
Dr_willis | Great_Gatsby, try the insert key.. You may be in insert/overwrite mode | 02:14 |
break_free | yeah, you might be able to turn off system beeps in your bios | 02:14 |
mroc | i'm looking to get a piece of software called "Accentuate" (a fork of the project that used to be called keyjnote). it seems to only be available through git. can anyone explain how to get/build this, or point me to something that does explain it? | 02:15 |
binarymutant | mroc, sudo apt-get install build-essiential git-core | 02:15 |
pw-toxic | lianimator: lol now this is getting really evil ;) if i press the hotkey <super> mouse1 my X11 freezes, so that i cant do any action anymore.. .. zooming with the mosue still works but not keyboard shortcut or mouse action | 02:15 |
pw-toxic | lianimator: can you tell me how i can reset x-server manually by console? | 02:15 |
pw-toxic | lianimator: (i just have rebootet and everything works again) | 02:16 |
lianimator | pw-toxic: sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart | 02:16 |
mroc | binarymutant: ok...done. | 02:16 |
pw-toxic | lianimator: what stands gdm for? | 02:17 |
pw-toxic | ah gnome desktop manger | 02:17 |
pw-toxic | ok i will remember this | 02:17 |
binarymutant | mroc, git clone <whatever the url is> | 02:17 |
binarymutant | mroc, do you have a website I can see to follow along? It'll be easier to help | 02:17 |
lianimator | pw-toxic: everything works now? the way you want it? | 02:17 |
mroc | binarymutant: http://repo.or.cz/w/accentuate.git | 02:18 |
passive | BearShare alternative ? | 02:18 |
lianimator | pw-toxic: did Ctrl+Alt+Backspace not restart X? | 02:18 |
LF|Irssi | Frostwire | 02:18 |
pw-toxic | lianimator: i have done a work around: i have the hotkey "<TopRightEdge><Shift><Control><Alt><Super>Button3 for the hotkey i think i will NEVER accidantly press this shortcut ;) | 02:18 |
binarymutant | mroc, git clone http://www.gutenberg.org/wiki/Main_Page | 02:18 |
lianimator | pw-toxic: lol! | 02:18 |
pw-toxic | lianimator: i dont know this shortcut but i will try wait | 02:18 |
binarymutant | LOl nm | 02:18 |
pw-toxic | lianimator: it works :D | 02:18 |
chaqui1 | I want 128 cores | 02:18 |
binarymutant | mroc *, git clone http://repo.or.cz/w/accentuate.git | 02:18 |
pw-toxic | lianimator: strg alt backspace works too | 02:19 |
pw-toxic | cool | 02:19 |
lianimator | pw-toxic: it worked.. lol | 02:19 |
pw-toxic | lianimator: now i have only one issue left: alt + mouse1 doesnt drag my window anymore... do you know where this option can be found? :D | 02:19 |
moonlite | I'm moving files from my trash-can to my desktop. I have only one partition mounted on "/" (no special home-partition or anything). Why isn't it instantaneous? It is moving the files at 4.6 MB/s now and that just feels weird Anyone? | 02:19 |
lianimator | pw-toxic: if you can still type, Alt+F2 then run "metacity --replace" will use metacity instead of compiz | 02:20 |
binarymutant | meh my fetch failed mroc | 02:20 |
mroc | binarymutant: as did mine | 02:20 |
lianimator | pw-toxic: in compiz also | 02:20 |
pw-toxic | lianimator: yeah but i have spent hours in compiz manager :D its very big | 02:20 |
lianimator | pw-toxic: if you want to use gconf-editor, it's still okay | 02:20 |
pw-toxic | lianimator: well compiz is the thing why i have installed ubuntu :D | 02:20 |
moonlite | also, 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 left | 02:20 |
lianimator | pw-toxic: use the advanced search. very useful! | 02:20 |
moonlite | or at least that's what i was told. Really weird. | 02:21 |
mroc | binarymutant: any suggestions on what to do from here, or is there nothing to be done at this point? | 02:21 |
binarymutant | mroc, gimmie a sec i | 02:22 |
pw-toxic | lianimator: i dont know what i should look for ;) | 02:22 |
lianimator | pw-toxic: there is a plugin called move window | 02:22 |
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-toxic | lol!!!!!!!! | 02:23 |
binarymutant | mroc, git clone http://repo.or.cz/r/accentuate.git | 02:23 |
pw-toxic | lianimator: my initate window move now got the hotkey <Shift><Controls><Alt><Super>Button1 | 02:23 |
lianimator | moonlite: trash is still stored on your disk. | 02:23 |
pw-toxic | lianimator: there really seems to be a strange bug ;) | 02:23 |
moonlite | lianimator: yes of course it is | 02:23 |
pw-toxic | lianimator: window menu and initate windoe move are coupled ;) | 02:24 |
lianimator | pw-toxic: that's a looooong "short" cut | 02:24 |
moonlite | but the trash should be stored on the same partition right? making the move instantaneous? | 02:24 |
binarymutant | mroc, it's just a single python script | 02:24 |
lianimator | pw-toxic: should call it longcut | 02:24 |
pw-toxic | lianimator: yes its a long shortcut, but i havend entered it | 02:24 |
pw-toxic | lets see what happens if i redefine this hotkey ;) | 02:24 |
pw-toxic | i'll remember strg alt backspace ;) | 02:24 |
pw-toxic | lianimator: now alt + mouse2 opens the window menu ;))))))))))))) | 02:25 |
pw-toxic | lianimator: i have just found a bug ;) do you know where i can commit compiz bugs? | 02:25 |
mroc | binarymutant: ok, so...is there no compilation? do i just make it executable and run it? | 02:25 |
Dex-Freudii | I 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 |
moonlite | lianimator: 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 |
lianimator | pw-toxic: are you aware of the button numbers? | 02:26 |
binarymutant | mroc, 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 too | 02:26 |
tsunami | best bittorrent client for ubuntu?? | 02:26 |
moonlite | gvfs bug perhaps? | 02:26 |
binarymutant | tsunami, rtorrent | 02:26 |
lianimator | pw-toxic: button2 is the middle CLICK | 02:26 |
pw-toxic | lianimator: ok then its button3 | 02:27 |
pw-toxic | lianimator: but thats not the problem | 02:27 |
moonlite | tsunami: transmissions seems really good | 02:27 |
tsunami | binarymutant: does it have a web interface? | 02:27 |
binarymutant | tsunami, uh...idk | 02:27 |
tsunami | moonlite: i don't really like transmission coming from utorrent | 02:27 |
lianimator | pw-toxic: try restarting compiz | 02:27 |
lianimator | pw-toxic: Alt+F2 then compiz | 02:27 |
pw-toxic | lianimator: 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 changed | 02:27 |
Dominik2 | how can I convert a flash file to pure audio? | 02:27 |
IndyGunFreak | tsunami: then just use utorrent, it works quite well w/ wine | 02:27 |
pw-toxic | lianimator: i can only change both hotkeys at the same time ... | 02:27 |
zzl | does anyone know the irc channel for University of Californias?? | 02:27 |
zzl | does anyone know the irc channel for University of Californias?? | 02:28 |
moonlite | tsunami: oh. I never thought of uTorrent as anything but a UI disaster. :) | 02:28 |
jpatota | join #security | 02:28 |
lianimator | pw-toxic: that IS pretty weird | 02:28 |
tsunami | IndyGunFreak: how do you get it running on ubuntu? | 02:28 |
binarymutant | tsunami, rtorrent does have a web interface | 02:28 |
pw-toxic | lianimator: yes ;) | 02:28 |
IndyGunFreak | tsunami: http://www.winehq.org | 02:28 |
mroc | binarymutant: thanks so much for your help. i'll grab the dependencies and see if it works. | 02:28 |
nkei0 | Hello! Does anyone know how to solve the wifi killswitch problem? I've tried changing the module.d option to turn the led on but it didn't work. I'm trying to figure out how to work the acer hotkey thingie but i'm a newb and don't understand it all | 02:28 |
lianimator | pw-toxic: what I'd do is stop compiz, config it, then run it. | 02:28 |
zzl | does anyone know the irc channel for University of Californias?? | 02:28 |
tsunami | moonlite: yeah, it will be helpful to know that i have recently made the move to ubuntu | 02:28 |
zzl | does anyone know the irc channel for University of Californias?? | 02:28 |
zzl | does anyone know the irc channel for University of Californias?? | 02:28 |

pw-toxic | lianimator: well my compiz and emerald just broke :D how can i restart compiz and emerald? | 02:29 |
nsteinme | can someone please tell me how to add a VGA 1280x1024 setting to my display with xrandr? I have hardy and for some reason only 800x600 and 640x480 appear in my screen res gui | 02:29 |
Dr_willis | zzl, i would say google may be a good starting point.. it may not neve exist on this server | 02:29 |
lianimator | pw-toxic: run "metacity" | 02:29 |
brodymcd | Can someone please help? I´m running Ubuntu Studio 8.10... and it allowed me to turn on the Broadcom driver for my wireless. Wireless light is ON, but wlan0 doesn´t show up in network manager... any thoughts, please? | 02:29 |
lianimator | pw-toxic: actually "metacity --replace" | 02:29 |
lianimator | moonlite: how can trash be bigger than "/"? | 02:30 |
break_free | broadcom, how I hate tehe | 02:30 |
break_free | thee | 02:30 |
nkei0 | brodymcd: open up terminal and put in iwconfig and let me know what the wireless comes up with | 02:30 |
moonlite | lianimator: well it really isn't. | 02:30 |
moonlite | as in | 02:30 |
chaqui1 | I can't make oolite work | 02:30 |
moonlite | all the files must be on the same partition (since when i move from trash to wherever my free disk space doesn't change) | 02:30 |
mroc | binarymutant: 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-toxic | lianimator: well, strg + alt + backspace did its work | 02:31 |
chaqui1 | I had it working before, but when I switched resolutions it went blank and I haven't been able to get it to start again | 02:31 |
brodymcd | oddly 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 |
moonlite | so 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 proble | 02:32 |
moonlite | very strange though | 02:32 |
binarymutant | mroc, sounds cool with the opengl, I wonder if it looks like a slide show with compiz effects | 02:32 |
nsteinme | can someone please tell me how to add a VGA 1280x1024 setting to my display with xrandr? I have hardy and for some reason only 800x600 and 640x480 appear in my screen res gui | 02:32 |
mrpockets | What does the >rm -rf / command do? | 02:33 |
motosir__ | try it | 02:34 |
mrpockets | no | 02:34 |
mrpockets | i mean | 02:34 |
mrpockets | its remove | 02:34 |
motosir__ | sudo in front of it though | 02:34 |
mrpockets | idk what the -rf options are | 02:34 |
mrpockets | and the entire root directory | 02:34 |
mrpockets | ? | 02:34 |
FloodBot1 | mrpockets: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 02:34 |
binarymutant | recursive and force | 02:34 |
mrpockets | ah | 02:34 |
mrpockets | so delete the entire file system? | 02:34 |
binarymutant | so recursivly remove everything ya | 02:34 |
mroc | binarymutant: it's recently forked from the old project keyjnote (available in the repositories). so it should be very similar. transitions are very nice, very smooth. definitely much more impressive than running a presentation through openoffice or the presentation mode of a pdf reader. | 02:34 |
razboinik | anyway of getting radeonhd with dri support? | 02:34 |
pw-toxic | lianimator: well i think i have to leave the drag window hotkey out ;( ill use keyboard hotkey isntead (strg + space) to initiate drag window | 02:35 |
binarymutant | mroc, thanks for the info, I think i'm going to try it out :) | 02:35 |
mon^rch | question: what is the name of the server? irc.freenode.net? | 02:35 |
binarymutant | mon^rch, ya | 02:35 |
mon^rch | ty | 02:35 |
mroc | binarymutant: thanks for the help with my question. worth downloading the script. i just tried it out, seems to be almost identical, but at least it's actively worked on now. | 02:36 |
binarymutant | mroc, I might try and package it if it's not in the repos already | 02:37 |
lianimator | pw-toxic: try running gconf-editor | 02:37 |
lianimator | pw-toxic: go to apps/metacity/desktop | 02:37 |
binarymutant | mroc, LIRC support = very cool | 02:37 |

c0re_ | hello. i just installed kde.. but i cant run it :(... | 02:40 |
mroc | binarymutant: yes...very. i won't have a chance to try that out anytime soon, but that's one of the newer developments i think. i'd love to see a maintained package if you get a chance. i think it'd benefit a lot of others. not sure that you can mention it being forked from the older project (the name keyjnote got some legal trouble from apple) | 02:40 |
binarymutant | mroc, it needs to be able to recursively go through folders with images though...thats kinda lame | 02:40 |

jamesish | tsunami: for it all in one step, tar -xzf filename | 02:46 |
alex_ | dr_willis: cool, I'm glad you like the stream. i've been listening to this station for a long time on my windows machine so I know it's pretty reliable. There must be something in ubuntu that's causing it. Have you ever played with gstreamer? | 02:46 |

binarymutant | jamesish, well now it is :/ but a .tar is just -xf | 02:47 |
jamesish | binarymutant: that's what I said. Thanks for verifying. | 02:47 |
jamesish | (07:46:11 PM) jamesish: tsubani: tar -xf filename | 02:47 |
Dr_willis | error404notfound, from what i recall thats just a meta-package.. if it had been installed with appitude, then aptitude remove ubuntu-desktop might of gotten rid of it.. but ive never really tried.. Just heard of others trying to clean the stuff out, and failing | 02:47 |

jamesish | luigi: second, how did you set permissions on it? | 02:52 |
riddlebox | binarymutant, it is a eeepc with the madwifi drivers | 02:52 |

Dr_willis | millertime_018, when i install ubuntu.. you can set the mountpoint for your ntfs filesystems.. | 03:13 |

jamesish | Peddy: 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 |

jamesish | Peddy: 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 |

Peddy | jamesish: aha, thanks. I'll have a look through my partitions. | 03:31 |
EJ | MTecknology: yeah i think i found out what my issue was ... i wasent adding the correct version to the repository | 03:31 |
Jeaton | ok | 03:31 |
jamesish | Peddy: 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 |
wandana | jamesish: Wow, that was quick. Indeed it is here: .config/xm1/texmaker.ini | 03:32 |
EJ | MTecknology: yup that was it ... its installing now | 03:32 |
wandana | jamesish: Thanks for letting me know! | 03:33 |

jamesish | wandana: you're welcome | 03:33 |

Ububegin | is there a way to use the cat command to see a specific line in the txt file... like cat helloWorld.txt (but i only want to see the 10th line) | 03:34 |

EJ | MTecknology: :D its all good now :D | 03:34 |
ubuntu810noob | Does anyone know why the install for Ubuntu 8.10 on a RAID5 system that uses ICH10R does not recognize the SATA drives? | 03:35 |
Peddy | jamesish: So after I boot from the live CD, I look for /boot partitions? | 03:35 |
jamesish | Ububegin: 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 |
jamesish | Peddy: 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 |

greenhog | kemalist: how did u setup ethernet conf.. i want my virtual machine to be jus like any other physical machine on the network? when i try to used eth0, it says eth0 device cannot be found | 03:59 |
kemalist | greenhog, i used bridged mode | 04:00 |
kemalist | to reach the net by windows | 04:00 |
slinkeey | I am removing compiz | 04:00 |
kemalist | slinkeey, what's wrong with it | 04:00 |
slinkeey | I think it is causing me to boot to a blank screen with just a mouse | 04:00 |
slinkeey | I have a feeling it is compiz | 04:01 |
woli | is there some way that some blur could be applied to the gnome-panels? | 04:01 |
kemalist | i had some kernel panics | 04:01 |
JonathanEllis | Hi, Can someone please tell me what the relatime option in fstab is for? | 04:01 |
kemalist | while loading X, and i think it was | 04:01 |
beckster | hey guys, quick question, why is there no CTRL + V in terminal? | 04:01 |
kemalist | compiz as well | 04:01 |
slinkeey | really? | 04:02 |
JonathanEllis | becskter: You need to press Ctrl-Shift-V | 04:02 |
kemalist | beckster, cause CTRL + V it's an input for the terminal | 04:02 |
greenhog | kemalist: me too... bridged mode. so in the interfaces configuration file it should still be eth0? or is it something else? | 04:02 |
woli | beckster: i think there is shift+control+v | 04:02 |
slinkeey | well I am rebooting it now so we will see | 04:02 |
niten | beckster: SHIFT + INS is paste | 04:02 |
kemalist | greenhog, check it | 04:02 |
beckster | =] thanks!! | 04:02 |
woli | beckster: you can change that in the profile optios | 04:02 |

ubuntu810noob | I am trying to install 8.10 on a brand new PC. I'm using a Gigabyte mobo (GA-EG45M-DS2H) with 3 SATA drives in a RAID5 config, but during the install the drives are not recognized. Can anyone help me please? | 04:02 |
=== atoponce is now known as eightyeight |
slinkeey | Removing COMPIZ Fixed it on a temp basis!! I guess I don't really need it!! | 04:02 |
slinkeey | My gut instinct was right!! | 04:02 |
nsteinme | hello. i have intel 82810 and hardy, and i am trying to add a 1280x1024 resolution setting. can anyone help? | 04:02 |
apeiron | heh. Apparently compiz makes "the Linux desktop easier to use". Can someone explain how that happens, please? | 04:03 |
JasonF | What's the difference between libapache2-mod-php5 | 04:03 |
JasonF | and libapache2-mod-php5filter | 04:03 |
kemalist | apeiron, it simply doesn't, to me it is still gross | 04:03 |
apeiron | All I can see is that it adds some shadows and fadein/out affects. | 04:03 |
musikgoat | !info libapache2-mod-php5filter | 04:03 |
cchapman | ubuntu810noob: your raid 5 controller drivers is not in the kernel? | 04:03 |
ubottu | libapache2-mod-php5filter (source: php5): server-side, HTML-embedded scripting language (apache 2 filter module). In component main, is optional. Version 5.2.6-2ubuntu4 (intrepid), package size 2421 kB, installed size 5412 kB | 04:03 |
slinkeey | Thanks for the Help!! | 04:03 |
apeiron | !info vrms | 04:04 |
greenhog | kemalist: i have checked.. when i do /etc/init.d/networking restart ... it says no such device as eth0 | 04:04 |
ubottu | vrms (source: vrms): virtual Richard M. Stallman. In component universe, is optional. Version 1.14 (intrepid), package size 12 kB, installed size 92 kB | 04:04 |
jamesish | apeiron: this cannot be explained, only seen. You too will enter the wondrous world of talking wank once your windows wobble. | 04:04 |
kemalist | greenhog, it must have another name then | 04:04 |
ubuntu810noob | cchapman: Unfortunately the controller does not seem to be in the kernel | 04:04 |
musikgoat | JasonF: the php5 package is essential for php support in apache2, not sure about the *filter one | 04:04 |
JasonF | musikgoat: I know :) that's the same place I am | 04:04 |
cchapman | ubuntu810noob: what raid controller are you using | 04:04 |
apeiron | oh bah, short description is too short | 04:04 |
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 |
greenhog | kemalist: well.. then how do i find the name of the network card? is it in the dmesg? | 04:04 |
ubuntu810noob | cchapman: ICH10R | 04:04 |
kemalist | greenhog, it must be in "ipconfig" list | 04:04 |
musikgoat | JasonF: if your just going for a lamp install, don't worry about it | 04:04 |
kemalist | if it is working | 04:05 |
philippe_ | nsteinme, you probably need to add your monitor vsync and hsync settings in you xorg.conf file | 04:05 |
cchapman | ubuntu810noob: i had the same problem with the ICH9R | 04:05 |
greenhog | kemalist: u mean ifconfig? | 04:05 |
ubuntu810noob | cchapman: fakraid I believe is what they call it. | 04:05 |
kemalist | yes, sorry, ifconfig, greenhog | 04:05 |
apeiron | Shinj1EVA, Looking at it now. | 04:05 |
ubuntu810noob | cchapman: How did you fix it? | 04:05 |
nsteinme | philippe, it looks like they are already in there, how could i try them out if they are? | 04:05 |
JasonF | musikgoat: I worry about everything. | 04:05 |
JasonF | musikgoat: apparently the libapache2-mod-php5filter has the filter module built in | 04:05 |
kemalist | anyway, anyone experiencing a weird behaviour by VLC, while compiz is up? | 04:06 |
cchapman | ubuntu810noob: I disabled the RAID in the bios and did a software raid 5 | 04:06 |
JasonF | no idea why that's not just a php5-foo module, though | 04:06 |
JonathanEllis | Can anyone recommend whether its better to use ext3 or ReiserFS for a partition that will be used to store many mp3 files and to record and edit audio? | 04:06 |
* apeiron goes 'meh' at wobbly-windows | 04:06 |
greenhog | kemalist: ifconfig shows only lo device... nothing else.. | 04:06 |
kemalist | JonathanD, ext3 | 04:06 |
slinkeey | Uninstalling Compiz Fixed my issues!! :) | 04:06 |
kemalist | greenhog, that's weird | 04:06 |
cchapman | ubuntu810noob: if you read on the raid controller it really isnt a good one.... its part hardware and mostly software | 04:06 |
kemalist | it should be up, in my case it worked and got its ip on its own | 04:06 |
Shinj1EVA | apeiron, i think if you're looking productivity, either slide/cube and scale might be it.. i use window previews with AWN too | 04:06 |
eliasp_ | JonathanEllis: if you love your data, take ext3... if you don't care about them, take ReiserFS ;) | 04:06 |
ubuntu810noob | cchapman: Yeah, found out after I bought it... sigh. | 04:07 |
philippe_ | nsteinme, paste the content of you xorg.conf file here : http://paste.ubuntu.com/ | 04:07 |
JonathanEllis | Thanks. | 04:07 |
Shinj1EVA | super + tab is nice, but not all that useful..t here's a ring switcher too | 04:07 |
greenhog | kemalist: but in the vmware server console it shows that network is connected... maybe my network card doesnt support bridged mode? | 04:07 |
n8tuser | JonathanEllis-> just an info on the guy that developed reiserfs has been arrested for murdering his wife..dont know what it will mean | 04:07 |
cchapman | ubuntu810noob: best bet is either buy a good raid controller or just stick with raid 5 via software | 04:07 |
kemalist | greenhog, impossible | 04:07 |
kemalist | it sets a virtual device which routes you | 04:07 |
eliasp_ | greenhog: bridging has nothing to do with your physical device... | 04:07 |
kemalist | real card--->virtual card--->vmware ubuntu | 04:08 |
tritium | n8tuser: very old news. | 04:08 |
ubuntu810noob | cchapman: What BIOS setting did you use? ACPI? | 04:08 |
greenhog | kemalist: ok.. im out of ideas.. | 04:08 |
Roasted | My flash drive doesn't get picked up by Ubuntu, but my flash drive works in this computer in Vista and Ubuntu picks up my USB wireless adapter as well as my USB mouse and USB printer, so clearly my USB ports work. But why does Ubuntu not recognize my flash drive?? | 04:08 |
n8tuser | tritium not really, he was only convicted about a month or two ago | 04:08 |
kemalist | greenhog, i've never heard of such an issue, i'm sorry | 04:08 |
Fenix|home | Greetings... | 04:08 |
tritium | n8tuser: precisely | 04:08 |
greenhog | kemalist: alrite.. | 04:08 |
apeiron | Shinj1EVA, whee, lots of settings. | 04:08 |
Fenix|home | what do I need to do with my SSH client so it doesn't draw lines using lqqqk? | 04:08 |
cchapman | ubuntu810noob: I changed my settings back to native sata drivers.... then it saw all three drives..... then i setup the software raid 5 during the ubuntu install | 04:08 |
eliasp_ | Fenix|home: set the encoding on both sides to UTF-8 | 04:09 |
Shinj1EVA | apeiron: yes there are.. it takes a while to configure, but after your done, i'm sure you'll like compiz | 04:09 |
kemalist | anyway, i'd ask why the hell compiz is set on by default | 04:09 |
ubuntu810noob | cchapman: cool. I will try that. THanks for your help. | 04:09 |
Shinj1EVA | i'd stay clear of too much eye candy though, it gets distracting | 04:09 |
Fenix|home | eliasp_, ok, my ssh client is using utf-8 | 04:09 |
nsteinme | philippe, http://paste.ubuntu.com/73659/ | 04:09 |
panfist | how can i do something in the command line like, execute the following command after 'x' minutes | 04:09 |
cchapman | ubuntu810noob: not a problem | 04:09 |
Fenix|home | what do I need to do to ensure ubuntu is purely utf-8? | 04:09 |
JonathanEllis | Can anyone please tell me what the relatime option in fstab is for? | 04:09 |
jamesish | panfist: to do something at the command line, type it in. | 04:09 |
jamesish | panfist: then hit enter. | 04:09 |
kemalist | well guys, serious question, any serious english dictionary for ubuntu? | 04:09 |
statim | i need the either apache2-threaded-dev or apache2-prefork-dev, but im not sure which or how im supposed to know which to pick. anyone have ideas? | 04:09 |
n8tuser | JonathanEllis-> man fstab maybe it has an explanation? | 04:10 |
musikgoat | panfist: man at | 04:10 |
tritium | kemalist: you know you can search for packages in synaptic, or with apt-cache search <term>, right? | 04:10 |
Roasted | Can anybody help me diagnose why Ubuntu does not pick up my flash drive?? | 04:10 |
panfist | musikgoat perfect | 04:10 |
Fenix|home | JonathanEllis, Google is your friend and so are MAN pages... but for the lazy... https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Fstab | 04:10 |

philippe_ | nsteinme, I take a look | 04:11 |
constantin_ | when ubuntu refers to a software channel | 04:11 |
constantin_ | what does that mean | 04:11 |
kemalist | i wanted to ask, if i may, for something *more advanced | 04:11 |
constantin_ | "a later version is available in a software channel" | 04:11 |
musikgoat | constantin_: its a repository | 04:12 |
nsteinme | philippe, thanks | 04:12 |
tritium | kemalist: no idea what you mean by that | 04:12 |
musikgoat | !repository | 04:12 |
cchapman | Roasted: i can try | 04:12 |
ubottu | The packages in Ubuntu are divided into several sections. More information at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories and http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/components - See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RecommendedSources for the recommended way to set up your repositories | 04:12 |

kemalist | and referring to a very old english | 04:12 |
constantin_ | was that to me ubottu? | 04:12 |
musikgoat | constantin_: yes | 04:12 |
Fenix|home | hey musikgoat how goes it? | 04:12 |
JonathanEllis | Fenix|home and n8tuser: Thanks. I already googled but sometimes if you dont know exactly what the search term should be one wades through loads of stuff that doesnt really help. I must confess I forgot about man fstab :blush: | 04:12 |
kemalist | thanks anyway tritium | 04:12 |
Michael | Can the Ubuntu 8.10 Desktop Live CD be run on a computer without a hard drive? If so, how? | 04:13 |
musikgoat | its ok, and you? | 04:13 |
Fenix|home | meh | 04:13 |
Roasted | cchapman - 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 |
tritium | kemalist: so, you're saying you searched? | 04:13 |
n8tuser | JonathanEllis-> if not in man fstab, perhaps man mount | 04:13 |
Fenix|home | (meh was just added to the dictionary today btw) | 04:13 |
cchapman | Roasted: have you looked at dmesg | 04:13 |
kemalist | i did tritium, but well, synaptics has got so many packages that it's getting confusing | 04:13 |
Fenix|home | n8tuser, man fstab works too | 04:14 |
cchapman | see if it sees the insertion of it | 04:14 |
Michael | My problem is that the Live CD doesn't seem to boot on my HD less laptop. Any reason why? | 04:14 |
Roasted | yes, theonly thing I notice is my usb printer. I dont notice anything... different... that would signify my flash drive | 04:14 |
Roasted | let me try... | 04:14 |
kemalist | so, with all the due respect for apt. i was looking for something more "human" for an advice | 04:14 |
jamesish | Michael: how much ram you got? | 04:14 |
dabbu | how can i install kde4 in ubuntu 8.10 while offline ? | 04:14 |
JonathanEllis | n8tuser: Thanks. Fenix|home: Meh sounds like something Melchet from Black Adder would say! | 04:14 |
Michael | It ran Ubuntu 7 fine | 04:14 |
Roasted | cchapman - is there anything in particular I am looking for in dmesg? It's a wholllllllle list of stuff... | 04:14 |
Michael | I have 700 ish megs of ram | 04:15 |
cchapman | try this | 04:15 |
Angah_ | i have free the ram | 04:15 |
cchapman | Roasted: tail -f /var/log/dmesg | 04:15 |
Angah_ | got back 3gb | 04:15 |
cchapman | Roasted: and insert and remove your flash drive | 04:15 |
Shinj1EVA | dmesg | tail | 04:15 |
Fenix|home | hey musikgoat is converting ubuntu to utf-8 as simple as installing locale and localeconf? | 04:16 |
Roasted | so wait... flash drive unplugged... dmesg tail... then plug it in? | 04:16 |
cchapman | Roasted: doesnt matter | 04:16 |
musikgoat | Fenix|home: | 04:16 |
george | I have konqueror-nsplugins installed, flashplugin-nonfree 10.0.12.36ubuntu1, but still it doesnt work | 04:16 |
MikeHbuntu | Roasted, probably do a dmesg before and after, see what changes. | 04:16 |
musikgoat | ^^yes | 04:16 |
MikeHbuntu | IMHO | 04:16 |
Fenix|home | Roasted, personally I like watch -n 1 dmesg | 04:17 |
Fenix|home | you don't have to run the tail over and over again as that command updates every second | 04:17 |
cchapman | Roasted: tail -f /var/log/dmesg will auto output anything new to dmesg on your screen | 04:17 |
Michael | I heard Ubuntu kills laptops. Any precautions that I should take? | 04:17 |
=== ivanoats is now known as ivanoats|away |
Shinj1EVA | why would it kill your laptop? | 04:18 |
cloud-nist | I added /etc /fstab in order to view my NTFS partition and removed the Floppy entries in fstab. Now my usb drive wont mount nor can I see it when I run the sudo fdisk -l command in terminal. Can someone please help me? | 04:18 |
musikgoat | Michael using laptops kills laptops | 04:18 |
MikeHbuntu | Michael, anything to do with the load cycles on the hdd? i think you need to disable powersave somehow | 04:18 |
MikeHbuntu | for the hdd | 04:18 |
TVVCR6 | Can someone tell me where the hell the download button is on this page? `uname -r` | grep snd | 04:18 |
TVVCR6 | Oops | 04:18 |
cloud-nist | Edited not Added | 04:18 |
Michael | Yeah, i think thats what it was about | 04:18 |
TVVCR6 | http://www.m-audio.com/index.php?do=support.drivers&f=422 | 04:18 |
Fenix|home | Michael, check with Interpol to see if Ubuntu has a record... I'm sure they'd have some hints on a serial laptop killer | 04:18 |
Roasted | cchapman - when I run that command you said, it doesn't go back to the prompt for me to type it again after I plug in my flash drive to compare what's different. | 04:18 |
tritium | TVVCR6: language, please. We try to keep this channel family-friendly. | 04:18 |
cchapman | Roasted: thats becaused the file is open and any changes are written directly to your screen | 04:19 |
Roasted | so, open another terminal? | 04:19 |
Roasted | or keep it open and plug in the drive and see waht changes? | 04:19 |
george | \q | 04:19 |
TVVCR6 | tritium: sorry | 04:19 |
Fenix|home | Michael, but seriously... check http://www.linux-laptop.net/ and see if your laptop and Ubuntu are there... these are reports others with your hardware have made with the success or failure of various linux distros... | 04:19 |
cchapman | Roasted: plugin and remove and see what changes | 04:19 |
ekontsevoy | 's gtkrc file over to my current theme, but the scrollbars have not changed. | 04:19 |
TVVCR6 | tritium: didn't think it was a bad word | 04:19 |
ekontsevoy | Has anyone ever modified gnome's themes? I want to se the color of scrollbars to the "color of selected item" (just like "Glossy" theme does it) but I can't find how to do that: I even copied glossy's gtkrc file over to my current theme, but the scrollbars have not changed. | 04:20 |
MikeHbuntu | Michael, i believe that you can set the powersave mode with hdparm.. | 04:20 |
JonathanEllis | So it seems that relatime is now a default option for linux filesystems. In that case, is there any point in specifying it explicitly in fstab? | 04:20 |
=== ivanoats|away is now known as ivanoats |
Roasted | I ran the command, plugged it in, counted to 10, unplugged... nothing changed. | 04:20 |
MikeHbuntu | mind you, this is anecdotal, although im about to test it with the new harddrive i just got for my macbook. | 04:20 |
musikgoat | TVVCR6: i didn't see any bad words either | 04:20 |
oly562 | wiggles | 04:20 |
musikgoat | TVVCR6: oops? maybe, heh | 04:21 |
Fenix|home | musikgoat, since localeconf no longer seems to be a package in intrepid... how do I configure? | 04:21 |

franck | Hi | 04:21 |
Shinj1EVA | seriously, no one's tried to get the new nvidia video decode acceleration working? | 04:21 |
Michael | What does it mean when you're loading the live cd and the bar stops moving? | 04:21 |
musikgoat | Fenix|home: i know its locale-gen but i don't remembre the syntax | 04:22 |

MikeHbuntu | Michael, now that issue im not sure about :) | 04:22 |
oly562 | franck: load windows.. | 04:22 |

Michael | Maybe its the CD drive | 04:22 |
musikgoat | Fenix|home: locale-gen [options] [locale] [language] | 04:22 |
Michael | I'll try my other | 04:22 |
franck | it is a sata cdrom | 04:22 |
cchapman | Roasted: my bad | 04:22 |
Shinj1EVA | guess not :( | 04:22 |
Fenix|home | musikgoat, so ubuntu sets the default locale to POSIX? | 04:22 |
Fenix|home | wow | 04:22 |
cchapman | Roasted: tail -f /var/log/messages | 04:22 |
Fenix|home | (at least ubuntu server) | 04:22 |
sFEARs | Michael, sometimes it means that the drivers it's trying to load can't be loaded.. try some of the different boot options using f4 at the boot prompt | 04:22 |
MikeHbuntu | Michael, does it sound like the drive is going over and over? (does the disc have dirt/scratches on it at all?) | 04:22 |
Michael | sorta | 04:23 |
Michael | wait its moving again | 04:23 |
MikeHbuntu | ooh | 04:23 |
Michael | i guess its working | 04:23 |
ghindo | Hi, I've got a box that won't boot because of file system errors. At boot, it says I need to run fsck manually. Problem is, I'm not sure how. Any help? | 04:23 |
MikeHbuntu | you may have a slightly errored disc, but if its still going, good :) | 04:23 |
Shinj1EVA | put in a live cd | 04:23 |

musikgoat | Michael for install? or to run the os? | 04:23 |
Roasted | I didn't think it'd do that!! | 04:23 |
crashatau | My brother does | 04:24 |
Michael | To install to | 04:24 |
sFEARs | ghindo, recovery mode may give you the fsck option | 04:24 |
ghindo | Shinj1EVA: I didn't even think of that. Thank you. | 04:24 |
ghindo | sFEARs: How do you access recover mode? | 04:24 |
Fenix|home | musikgoat, locale-gen shows I already have two utf8 locales... I guess all I need to do is change the locale settings | 04:24 |
Shinj1EVA | actually,, follow the other's instructions if you can get into recover mode | 04:24 |
cchapman | Roasted: did it tell you it connected to something like sdb | 04:24 |
musikgoat | Michael: tbh, i don't remember for install, you may be able to pull it off | 04:24 |
tritium | Michael: you can create a USB with a persistent home directory in under 1 GB. | 04:24 |
Michael | SCORE! | 04:24 |
musikgoat | ^^thanks tritium | 04:25 |
cchapman | Roasted: or sdb1 | 04:25 |
MikeHbuntu | Michael, i dont see why you couldnt install straight there, however, there will probably be a few caveats.. ive not tried it yet | 04:25 |
sFEARs | ghindo at the boot menu.. press escape a couple of times when you first start your computer.. it should give you a grub boot menu in which will be a recovery mode option | 04:25 |
Roasted | cchapman - I don't see anything like that... | 04:25 |
ghindo | sFEARs: Okay, I'll give that a shot. Thank you! | 04:25 |

cloud-nist | I edited /etc /fstab in order to view my NTFS partition and removed the Floppy entries in fstab. Now my usb drive wont mount nor can I see it when I run the sudo fdisk -l command in terminal. Can someone please help me? | 04:27 |
ipid | i have a problem with interpid the system freezes, after long period of inactivity. i have tried changing the screen saver to blank no use. from screen saver menu i only see the LCD goes into stand-by but not the CP what could be the cause. Would the system log something because i had to reset by power switch | 04:27 |
Shinj1EVA | matthias_: what firewall did you isntall? Why would it affect your sound? | 04:27 |

cchapman | Roasted: what filesystem does it have on it? | 04:29 |
musikgoat | TooR4u: i'd start with looking for deb packages, or if not, you can build from source | 04:29 |

musikgoat | Dawson: change your download server | 04:31 |
Shinj1EVA | matthias_: no, not too particularly.. youtube is flash.. do you ahve similar problems with other flash based sites? | 04:31 |
Dawson | musikgoat, how? | 04:31 |
musikgoat | Dawson: system -> admin -> software sources | 04:31 |
Dawson | Musikgoat: With you so far, where from here? | 04:32 |

Shinj1EVA | matthias_: are you using 64bit linux w/ nspluginwrapper for the flash plugin? i mean it should work either way.. just wondering.. | 04:32 |

Dawson | Musikgoat: Huh, I'm finding the same thing. Any idea why? | 04:33 |
MikeHbuntu | Dawson, have you tried the kernel.org mirror? they seem to be rather fast for me | 04:33 |

Michael | Are they selling Ubuntu at Best Buy yet? | 04:34 |
musikgoat | it was stable enough to release :-) | 04:35 |
Dawson | MikeHbuntu: I'm in Canada, will kernel.org still work for me? Musikgoat: Is the server speed based entirely on geographical proximity? | 04:35 |
matthias_ | Shinj1EVA: 32 bit should notaffect due tu it is just an firewall ... | 04:35 |
TVVCR6 | Is it on http://www.opensound.com ? | 04:35 |
apeiron | I remember back in the day when office supply stores sold Linux. | 04:35 |
musikgoat | Dawson: that, and the upload capability of the server, and the demand | 04:35 |
MikeHbuntu | Dawson, yes, and yes, sort of. yes it will work for you fine. its a north american mirror, in california. | 04:35 |
ipid | RHorse: I have just installed it yesterday, it seems so | 04:35 |
Roasted | cchapman - did you get my pastebin? | 04:35 |
MikeHbuntu | and the capacity of the server, as musikgoat mentioned, is definitely a factor. kernel.org has multiple gigabits. | 04:36 |
cchapman | Roasted: ya. thats is strange | 04:36 |
RHorse | ipid: with Ubuntu one must adapt the hw to the sw more than with more ubiquitous OS's | 04:36 |
MikeHbuntu | Dawson, try running 'mtr mirrors.kernel.org' from a terminal | 04:36 |
Roasted | cchapman - I didn't change anything in my system... that's what's really weird. | 04:36 |
Dawson | Musikgoat; MikeHbuntu, thank you so much for your help. Hopefully this will work. :-) Have a good one folks. :-D | 04:36 |

Dawson | MikeHBuntu; I was thinking the same thing. I was on a server from Toronto and it was giving me problems; but I'm thinking this will work. 'mtr mirrors.kernel.org', right? | 04:38 |
musikgoat | Dawson: try us uni's near that providence, and kernel.org.... try running the select the best server test too | 04:38 |
Roasted | no, nothing that's storage. I just have my wireless adapter. | 04:38 |

djhash | is anyone aware of a bug in ibex.. where when I tell it to unmount a usb drive.. it automatically remounts it?! | 05:07 |
tritium | troubled: or #ubuntu-offtopic | 05:07 |
troubled | tritium: ahh, thanks | 05:07 |
Roasted | cchapman - formatted it to fat32 in my XP laptop, and its still not recognized in ubuntu. | 05:08 |
djhash | its kinda annoying when I try to gparted!!! | 05:08 |
kyle205 | I just moved my wubi installation to a real partition and now it won't boot... Can anyone help? | 05:08 |
slimjimflim | anybody know how to fix the bug where you have to disable/enable | 05:09 |
slimjimflim | the ubuntu addon for ff3 in order to connect to sites? | 05:09 |
slimjimflim | otherwise it says 'working offline' | 05:09 |
kyle205 | Anyone? | 05:09 |
djhash | kyle205: i'm not experience with wubi.. but I belive you might either need to re configure grub.. or maybe it just doesnt work that way | 05:09 |
cchapman | Roasted: only conslusion i can come to is it is incompatible with linux | 05:09 |
Roasted | it worked before... :*( | 05:10 |
Roasted | its a new flash drive, about 3 weeks old. It's worked up until last night. | 05:10 |

shinoj | slimjimflim: are you talking of ff starting offline? | 05:10 |

codesmith | Who can give me an answer about "Universe repository" | 05:11 |
kindofabuzz | ivanoats, sudo nano ~/user/.bash_history | 05:11 |
zoople | hi all, having some ethernet troubles. lan works fine wirelessly and ethernet has worked fine in Hardy, but with Intrepid, unable to connect. | 05:11 |
ivanoats | kindofabuzz: .bash_history isn't written until the user logs out | 05:11 |
kindofabuzz | ahh | 05:11 |
kindofabuzz | boot them off lol | 05:11 |
zoople | ive tried setting everything statically, including the routes, but still no luck | 05:11 |
ivanoats | i wish it was that easy | 05:11 |
ivanoats | i think if I boot them off, then .bash_history is not written | 05:11 |
codesmith | What's meaning of "Install package from the Universe repository"? | 05:12 |
tritium | !universe | codesmith | 05:12 |
ubottu | codesmith: The packages in Ubuntu are divided into several sections. More information at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories and http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/components - See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RecommendedSources for the recommended way to set up your repositories | 05:12 |
Shinj1EVA | anyone get past this on playing an mkv using ffh264vdpau codec in mplayer? http://paste.ubuntu.com/73684/ | 05:12 |
shinoj | slimjimflim: it happens when you take internet through other ways than through NM | 05:12 |
slimjimflim | shinj1eva, vlc or kmplayer work | 05:13 |
Shinj1EVA | they aren't compiled for vdpau | 05:13 |
slimjimflim | shinoj, nm? | 05:13 |
n8tuser | zoople-> can you elaborate on your network layout? | 05:13 |
wmg1976 | hi | 05:13 |
zoople | sure, its pretty standard, got a all in one modem and router which this lappy connects to | 05:13 |
zoople | then there is a wireless AP connected to that | 05:13 |
codesmith | I can connect to Internet, but I always failed to get info from repository, such as Universe ,why? | 05:13 |
Shinj1EVA | guess no one really messes with bleeding edge stuff here :( | 05:14 |
shinoj | slimjimflim: network manager | 05:14 |
paul68 | n8tuser: goodmorning how are you today? | 05:14 |
n8tuser | zoople-> so the lappy connected to the modem/router is okay | 05:14 |
troubled | ivanoats: if you dont trust them, you probably shouldnt have allowed them on in the first place | 05:14 |
srx2002 | hi guys, I just installed ubuntu ...so far it's been great. ( I had some trouble with mandriva 2009 and the kde4...) so far it's been great, even though I am a N00b | 05:14 |
tritium | codesmith: perhaps you've not configured apt to use that repo. Read those URLs I sent you again. | 05:14 |
slimjimflim | shinoj, oh, i'm using wifi-radar | 05:14 |
zoople | nah the ethernet is where im having the trouble | 05:14 |
shinoj | slimjimflim: there is also fix. i did it long back | 05:14 |
zoople | connects to the wireless AP fine | 05:14 |
ivanoats | troubled: i trust them of course | 05:14 |
n8tuser | paul68-> good evening my side | 05:14 |
zoople | and thats what im on now | 05:14 |
zoople | but for some reason, using ethernet is not good | 05:14 |
troubled | ivanoats: yet you are snooping on them? | 05:15 |
slimjimflim | codesmith, edit /etc/sources.list and uncomment the part about universe | 05:15 |
shinoj | slimjimflim: are you using hardy? | 05:15 |
n8tuser | paul68 okay, i hope you had a good rest | 05:15 |
slimjimflim | shinoj, ya | 05:15 |
zoople | and i know its not the setup coz i have a dual boot with Hardy and its fine on that | 05:15 |
ivanoats | troubled: i need to know because we are working on it together | 05:15 |
shinoj | slimjimflim: what is the ff version | 05:15 |

zoople | yup, but even if i wasnt, is et all that statically in the settings | 05:16 |
srx2002 | quick question, I did the updates and it seems to get a list...does that mean they re installed automatically?? | 05:16 |

slimjimflim | shinoj, ty | 05:16 |

Roasted | Meanwhile, does anybody else out here have any experience with getting USB flash drives to work? I have a usb mouse, usb printer, usb external hard drive, and they all work in ubuntu. My flash drive work sin my xp laptop so I know it's fine. But I can't get my flash drive to respond in Ubuntu. Anybody got an idea? | 05:17 |
paul68 | n8tuser: I understand that the 3 subnets are in fact an extra security layer right, how does my dhcp fit onto all this? and can you give me the forwarding rules again for the iptables so that I can put them into a script | 05:17 |

slimjimflim | roasted, you'll have to mount it manually if it's not automatically recognized | 05:17 |
drakeman | someone samy that i have to put this info | 05:18 |
zoople | yeah thats the weird thing | 05:18 |
zoople | coz ive set em statically in the settings | 05:18 |
n8tuser | paul68-> bare with me for a few, | 05:18 |
slimjimflim | roasted, remember most flash drives use fat32 | 05:18 |
Roasted | slimjimfilm - it's not recognized by gparted, sudo fdisk -l, or anything. Otherwise I could manually mount it - I'm familiar with that. | 05:18 |
tritium | zoople: paste /etc/network/interfaces to confirm those settings | 05:18 |
zoople | i tried to set em using ifconfig but get errors | 05:18 |
paul68 | n8tuser: sure no problem | 05:18 |

drakeman | http://paste.ubuntu.com/73689/ | 05:19 |
zoople | ok wow | 05:19 |

zoople | says eth0 not configured | 05:19 |
troubled | ivanoats: and kill -l | 05:19 |
Roasted | slimjimflim - When I lsusb, it takes a few minutes. I get a flashing box... I'll post when it's done. | 05:20 |

n8tuser | paul68-> echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward; iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -o eth0 -j MASQUERADE | 05:24 |
Roasted | slimjimflim - 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 |

Randall1 | demonspork: alright thanks | 05:33 |

* troubled waddles off to fetch a litre of cola | 05:34 |

populas | for example oly alias screen='screen -L -S share-test && :multiuser on && :acladd root' | 05:34 |
codesmith | How to select a correct server? | 05:34 |
oly562 | poplar: yep | 05:34 |
heliedgar | well im leaving tanxk anyway | 05:35 |
populas | that that does not process teh :multiuser on or :acladd user althought it will set the alias | 05:35 |
tritium | heliedgar: numerical integration will result in a number for an answer. A closed-form solution will give you an answer in terms of the variable of integration. | 05:35 |

Conexion | Thanks both tritium and oly562 :) | 05:42 |
Conexion | :D | 05:42 |
troubled | drakeman: chances are, your setup isn't showing the options for resolutions. also, doesn't ubuntu come with a tool to adjust resolutions? tried ctrl-alt-+/- combo to bump the res? | 05:43 |
paul68 | n8tuser: but at this stage already figured out that dhcp is useless on the linksys so I'm not a complete lost case right ;-) | 05:43 |

oly562 | SeaOfTea: ? | 05:43 |
zoople | so ive read a few issues with flash on ubuntu. before i install anything, whats is the going tip? | 05:43 |
SeaOfTea | they don't look the same as they do if I'm say running vista | 05:44 |
mimcpher | I'd just like to announce that the sound the ubuntu installer made after copying files scared the crap out of me. | 05:44 |
oly562 | SeaOfTea: linux > windoze | 05:44 |
SeaOfTea | they are not as smooth | 05:44 |
Conexion | Is there an advantage to logging in as a user when you're configuring a lot of things versus logging in as root? | 05:44 |
SeaOfTea | I agree ubuntu beats the pants of vista in every way | 05:44 |
SeaOfTea | except with fonts | 05:44 |
n8tuser | paul68-> nope, you still need the dhcp to serve ip address to the linksys wan port | 05:44 |
drakeman | troubled: yeah i already tried the reconfigure option, and with ctrl +/- no luck | 05:44 |
troubled | Conexion: save time from running sudo for everything at the CLI | 05:44 |
=== ivanoats is now known as ivanoats|away |
tritium | Conexion, troubled: just use "sudo -i", then | 05:45 |
SeaOfTea | fonts are really clear on vista or xp for that matter | 05:45 |

remote | error404notfound: what did you change in your configuration? and did you change it in the global config or just in root's private ssh config? | 06:01 |
tritium | SeaOfTea: what app is that? That may be application-specific. | 06:01 |
SeaOfTea | that's firefox | 06:01 |
SeaOfTea | but it happens in other apps | 06:02 |
remote | yerchin: whenever you eat something that will produce gas, it will most likely make you fart | 06:02 |
yerchin | Is there a way to reskin the ubuntu gui? | 06:02 |
tritium | remote: stop | 06:02 |
error404notfound | remote: in /etc/ssh/, that means global, StrictHostKeyChekcking to no, even tried with HashKnowHosts no, and BatchMode yes | 06:02 |
troubled | SeaOfTea: character kerning problem i see? | 06:02 |
SeaOfTea | is that what its called? | 06:02 |
troubled | i believe so | 06:03 |
troubled | try adding that to a google search? | 06:03 |
SeaOfTea | I can search that | 06:03 |
SeaOfTea | thx | 06:03 |
remote | no wait, if it does work for root, it should work for everybody | 06:03 |
error404notfound | remote: and that's the problem.. | 06:03 |
troubled | SeaOfTea: also, are you using ttf font paths in your x config? perhaps the fonts it wants arent available | 06:03 |
=== coldboot|home is now known as coldboot |
remote | might there be a user specific ssh config that is overriding the global config in some way? | 06:03 |
troubled | SeaOfTea: sorry I can't offer much other advice, I dont use X hardly ever, im CLI :) | 06:04 |
remote | error404notfound: yes i understand what your problem is thanks | 06:04 |
jane_ | hi, I've tried installing ubuntu desktop 8.04 and 8.10 on a C3 processor and it hang during installation.. | 06:04 |
jane_ | has anyone tried it? | 06:04 |
coldboot | Would anyone know why XScreensaver no longer turns off the screens, but `xset dpms force off` works fine? | 06:04 |
gluonman | I accidentally closed the terminal while it was downloading packages, and now that I'm trying to use it again, it says "Unable to get exclusive lock." What should I do so that I can use aptitude again? | 06:05 |
remote | error404notfound: did you use ssh -v do enable debuging output? | 06:05 |
jane_ | does 8.4 or 8.10 still support C3 processor? | 06:05 |
error404notfound | remote: no, I tried creating a brand new user and trying to ssh from him, same with everyone else except root, and root has just known-hosts in /root.ssh/, no user specific configs there | 06:05 |
remote | you should use it on root, then compare with your user's ssh -v debug output | 06:05 |
troubled | coldboot: no option for dpms in any of the screensaver/monitor settings? | 06:05 |
statim | troubled: hmm... i cant figure out how to add a "hold"... google talks about apt-get hold, but that isnt valid on my apt-get. any ideas? | 06:05 |
=== Guest27852 is now known as Sinister |
troubled | statim: i use: echo "pkgname hold" | dpkg --set-selections | 06:05 |

coldboot | Oh, stupid xscreensaver was uninstalled. | 06:06 |
troubled | statim: try "dpkg --get-selections | less" for a list of stuff installed as well | 06:06 |
remote | make sure to remove the know_host entry first | 06:06 |
SeaOfTea | troubled: you don't use a gui at all? Do like feeling like living in 1983. | 06:06 |
SeaOfTea | j/k | 06:06 |

error404notfound | remote: http://pastebin.com/m6577dc19 | 06:08 |
remote | error404notfound: i'd like to question the reason why you want to accept ssh keys blindly as well, you know that's not very good now do you? | 06:09 |
error404notfound | remote: but I want to, because all systems are in a DMZ, plus located right next to me, so I can manually verify DSA keys if required. | 06:09 |
troubled | statim: speaking of aptitude: aptitude hole <pkgname> :) | 06:09 |

What should i do??? | 06:12 |
troubled | lirit: although, if you use screen, you can just display something and do a "ctrl-a,[" to start copy mode and scroll around using that | 06:12 |
error404notfound | shirish: that's is if grub is installed... else no output | 06:12 |
shirish | error404notfound: you get grub (GNU GRUB 0.97) ? | 06:13 |

constantin_ | is i cant get into OS X anymore | 07:19 |
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 |
constantin_ | when i ran the first command from that site i sent i didnt get grub being installed | 07:20 |

troubled | constantin_: can you not install refit in ubuntu? | 07:31 |
troubled | refit - graphical bootloader for EFI-based ia32 systems | 07:31 |
constantin_ | i installed the deb | 07:31 |
constantin_ | and it does nothing | 07:31 |
constantin_ | i get a gray screen when i reboot | 07:32 |
constantin_ | and then after about 40 seconds it boots into ubuntu | 07:32 |
troubled | did you set it up properly though? | 07:32 |
constantin_ | no idea | 07:32 |
constantin_ | it was an installer through aptitude i think | 07:32 |
constantin_ | so i doubt i did | 07:32 |
H__ | Diazepam afaik the name needs to be a generic name, wildcard like | 07:32 |
troubled | try the manpage on it, you probably just have a blank config or something | 07:32 |
jj_galvez | could someone verify that www.getdeb.net is down? I can't seem to be able to get on the sebsite | 07:33 |
UnknownUser56 | j_galvez:down | 07:34 |
troubled | constantin_: try: dpkg -L refit | 07:34 |

jj_galvez | UnknownUser56: thanks | 07:34 |
troubled | constantin_: look around at some of the files listed for stuff | 07:34 |

constantin_ | the cd wont load | 07:38 |
constantin_ | i can't get into OS X | 07:38 |
constantin_ | from the partition | 07:38 |
troubled | Jordan_U: he deleted refit from OSX and lost ability to boot it | 07:38 |
Mohammad[B] | i need a portable text-based irc client | 07:38 |
Jordan_U | Conexion: You can always buy support from canonical :) | 07:39 |
constantin_ | okay troubled so what do i need to do here | 07:39 |
bazhang | constantin_, is this an apple computer | 07:39 |
Icchy | Mohammad[B]: irssi | 07:39 |
Jordan_U | troubled: Lost the ability to boot OSX? | 07:39 |
constantin_ | yea | 07:39 |
constantin_ | macbook | 07:39 |
troubled | Jordan_U: yes, aparently | 07:39 |
Jordan_U | constantin_: Did you try holding down option at boot? | 07:39 |
bazhang | constantin_, then hold down the c key when you boot from the cd | 07:39 |
constantin_ | yes | 07:39 |
constantin_ | neither work | 07:39 |
bazhang | constantin_, both of those work | 07:39 |
Jordan_U | constantin_: Holding down c should always work | 07:40 |
bazhang | on apple computers | 07:40 |
constantin_ | i tried | 07:40 |
Mohammad[B] | Icchy, i said portable ... this means i don't want to install it, i want to run it | 07:40 |
constantin_ | i just have a gray screen | 07:40 |
constantin_ | then grub loads | 07:40 |
Icchy | right | 07:40 |
Icchy | hmm | 07:40 |

mustinet_ | how to listen radio station without media player | 07:40 |
constantin_ | it would seem like it is from my typing to you | 07:40 |
Conexion | Jordan_U: As tempting as that is, I don't think it is worth paying money for something that should be as easy as opening up a menu to do. I'll program a work-around myself before buying support for something that should be built into Ubuntu | 07:41 |
mustinet_ | radio station use Media player cast | 07:41 |
troubled | mustinet_: vlc works in cli | 07:41 |

troubled | mustinet_: well, if its wmp, you might be SOL for vlc then, sorry | 07:41 |
Conexion | Jordan_U: I do appreciate the help though | 07:41 |
bazhang | constantin_, which make and model of mac, and which version of ubuntu | 07:41 |
constantin_ | macbook | 07:41 |
constantin_ | newest one | 07:41 |
constantin_ | ubuntu 8.10 | 07:41 |
bazhang | constantin_, read the macbook wiki | 07:42 |
Conexion | I just assumed there would be people here who knew as much about Linux and Ubuntu as I do about Windows | 07:42 |
troubled | Mohammad[B]: try compile a client you like statically. may not work for everything if it looks in specific spots for certain files though | 07:42 |

bazhang | constantin_, grub? | 07:43 |
zeno___ | ? | 07:43 |
constantin_ | i can try | 07:43 |
constantin_ | i kind of doubt it will work | 07:44 |
ikonia | bazhang yes he's trying to boot it from grub | 07:44 |
troubled | zeno___: i'd say use the scp recursive options | 07:44 |
constantin_ | is there a chance some video setting could be screwed up on the boot? | 07:44 |
Jordan_U | constantin_: You can only boot OSX from the EFI version of grub2 | 07:44 |
constantin_ | like is it supposed to be gray? | 07:44 |
Omitt | After a year and a half of using linux, I finally found out how to open text files in terminal. | 07:44 |
ikonia | constantin_: are you listening ? | 07:44 |
Jordan_U | constantin_: Or elilo | 07:44 |
Omitt | I'd say I'm an expert now. | 07:44 |
troubled | zeno___: better yet, rsync+ssh is better for resuming if stuff goes south | 07:44 |
constantin_ | yes ikonia | 07:44 |
troubled | Omitt: welcome to the club :) | 07:44 |
constantin_ | what do you suggest i do | 07:44 |
Icchy | Omitt: how? :-D | 07:44 |
Diazepam | H_ so how do you hold back the kernel | 07:45 |
Omitt | Heh, I got a virus the other day, and I figured I should actually learn how linux works. | 07:45 |
Diazepam | H_ i have an eee 1000 that I want to hold back a kernel | 07:45 |
qinglange1 | hello | 07:45 |
Omitt | I'm just backing up a few files before I re-instally. | 07:45 |
ikonia | constantin_: which model mac is it ? | 07:45 |
qinglange1 | test | 07:45 |
troubled | Omitt: its not bad once you realise how intelligently *nix systems are designed | 07:45 |
Burt | Yo, is there a command I can run to turn off my laptop monitor? I need to leave on my PC overnight, and I dont want it to suspend, shutdown, etc. ****BUT*** I don't want to leave the screen on all night | 07:45 |
Omitt | I have come here once before but I forgot to thank the fellow who helped me. | 07:45 |
Icchy | Omitt: u sure u cant remove the virus with clamAV or something so u dont need to re-install? | 07:46 |
Jordan_U | constantin_: Sorry to have you reboot again but have you tried holding down "T" specifically? | 07:46 |
constantin_ | macbook 4.1 | 07:46 |
zeno___ | troubled ok ill try, thx | 07:46 |
troubled | Burt: force DPMS? | 07:46 |
Omitt | Troubled, I think my main problem was not keeping contact with the community. | 07:46 |
ikonia | constantin_: which on is that | 07:46 |
bazhang | constantin_, where did you get the mac CD? | 07:46 |
constantin_ | what does target disk mode do | 07:46 |
ikonia | one | 07:46 |
constantin_ | it's the one that came with the laptop | 07:46 |
jj_galvez | Omitt: what virus did you get? | 07:46 |
Jordan_U | Burt: System -> Preferences -> Power Management | 07:46 |
troubled | Omitt: but there are so many communities! | 07:46 |
Burt | troubled, Hmmm... is that a command? ^^;; what is DPMS? | 07:46 |
ikonia | constantin_: can you access the bios ? | 07:46 |
constantin_ | i wouldnt know how to if i wanted to | 07:46 |
Omitt | jj_galvez, It was the clams virus scanner virus I believe. | 07:46 |
troubled | Burt: simple terms, DPMS = screen blank at hardware level | 07:47 |
qinglange1 | once more | 07:47 |
Omitt | I can't be sure because I stopped being able to download updates before I could figure out how to unpack another bit of software to look | 07:47 |
zeno___ | my drive fails to mount, its an ext3 partition, but gparted reports it as fat16. how do i fix this, or is the drive toast? | 07:47 |
Burt | Jordan_U, yes I know, but my program prevents power management so the screen will not turn off after 11 mins | 07:47 |
Jordan_U | constantin_: It basically turns your laptop into a firewire drive | 07:47 |
ikonia | constantin_: how did you get the mac to boot the ubuntu install cd ? | 07:47 |
jj_galvez | Omitt: Clams is virus scanning software is there really a virus called that? how did you detect it? | 07:47 |
troubled | Burt: someone earlier mentioned: xset dpms force off | 07:47 |
bazhang | constantin_, either c, t, or option work on Mac computers; if they do not for you then it is a serious hardware problem | 07:47 |
constantin_ | i had rEFIt on then | 07:47 |
Jordan_U | Burt: What program, how does it prevent power management? | 07:48 |
Omitt | Good experience though. I have my files, and I'm much wiser to key loggers being turned on every five seconds. lol | 07:48 |
ikonia | constantin_: refit doesn't boot the cd for you though does it ? | 07:48 |
constantin_ | actually it does | 07:48 |
constantin_ | well i dont think its refit | 07:48 |
constantin_ | i screwed up ubuntu too though | 07:48 |
constantin_ | and i was able to reinstall it | 07:48 |
ikonia | constantin_: can you boot ubuntu ? | 07:48 |
constantin_ | using the live cd | 07:48 |
constantin_ | yea im in it now | 07:48 |
FloodBot2 | constantin_: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 07:49 |
bazhang | constantin_, you are ubuntu with the mac right now? then paste.ubuntu.com with lspci | 07:49 |
Burt | troubled, Cool! Ran xset --help and saw what it does. Thank you very much! | 07:49 |
Jordan_U | constantin_: How did you boot the livecd? | 07:49 |
Burt | Jordan_U, Transmission? | 07:49 |
troubled | Burt: np, thank coldboot for that one :) | 07:49 |
constantin_ | it booted automatically when it was in | 07:49 |
constantin_ | but it spits out my os x cd | 07:49 |
constantin_ | maybe i screwed with the swap partition for it or something | 07:49 |
ikonia | constantin_: pastebin lspci into a passtebin please | 07:49 |
ikonia | !pastebin | constantin_ | 07:50 |
ubottu | constantin_: 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) | 07:50 |
constantin_ | okay so what do you want me to do exactly with pastebin | 07:50 |
troubled | ikonia: see notice window :) | 07:50 |
ikonia | constantin_: put the output of the lspci command | 07:50 |

bluebuntu | no I need a language learning program like Rosetta Stone | 08:01 |
troubled | Styles: there ya go then ;) | 08:01 |
Polysics | i've never managed mail or DNS | 08:01 |
ikonia | Polysics: so what is your questions ? | 08:02 |
bluebuntu | I know Gimp I use it in Windows at work moreso than Photoshop anymore | 08:02 |
Marupa | bluebuntu, install rosetta stone under ubuntu using WINE? | 08:02 |
bluebuntu | wine crashes out when I get to a certain point | 08:02 |
Polysics | ikonia, 1) what am i looking for if i say that i need a mail server with virtual mailbox server? | 08:02 |
troubled | Polysics: i would advise against your own DNS unless its internally only | 08:02 |
mustinet_ | troubled: not playing in vlc this link | 08:02 |
bluebuntu | when I get to writing comprehension | 08:02 |
Marupa | might want to take up that error in the WINE channel then. | 08:02 |
bluebuntu | it just dies | 08:02 |
mustinet_ | i try netrwork open and paste link | 08:02 |
troubled | mustinet_: its a WMV file I assume? | 08:02 |
Polysics | 2) do i need my own DNS on that machine or can i use the domain provider's? | 08:02 |
Marupa | Any suggestions for my wifi issue? | 08:03 |
ikonia | Polysics: you want a virtual mail service intergrated into a mail server such as postfix or exim, a virtual service suh as vexim, or postfixadmin would work | 08:03 |
darkbishop | i think my display dont have any driver.what should i do???? | 08:03 |
troubled | Polysics: use the providers if they provide that service | 08:03 |
bluebuntu | ahh ty so there is no Linux program supplement for learning a language? | 08:03 |
Kartagis | baschtwork, //server/share /mnt/share fshere credentials=/root/.share 0 1 | 08:03 |
ikonia | Polysics: use the domain providers, dns is not to be messed with and if you running this on a home connection don't even look at it | 08:03 |
mustinet_ | :s | 08:03 |
Polysics | ikonia, it's going to be a Linode VPS | 08:03 |
jj_galvez | question about the new networkmanager applet, it was not showing so I googled and it was recommended that I delete the contents of my interfaces file, which I did. However now I don't get an internet connection untill I actually log into the GUI. | 08:03 |
ikonia | Polysics: use your isps | 08:03 |
bluebuntu | I should make a FOSS language learning program and ask everyone who knows their native language to chip in | 08:03 |
ikonia | Polysics: they will run them better than you | 08:03 |
Polysics | for mail server, i will google postfix + postfixadmin - thanks, i just needed to know WHAT i was looking for :-) | 08:04 |
Polysics | i'll also ask in #postfix | 08:04 |

erbi | im having problems setting it up | 08:10 |
ikonia | erbi: your not using the version from the ubuntu repos ? | 08:10 |
erbi | i think i have multiple nvidia drivers | 08:10 |
erbi | Checking for Composite extension: present. | 08:10 |

darkbishop | ikonia: so the hardware driver is for nvidia only? | 08:13 |
erbi | that fux | 08:13 |
erbi | fix * | 08:13 |
ikonia | erbi: I'll be blunt, if you've got multiple versions of the nvidia modules on your system, your in trouble, it's a pain to clean up | 08:13 |
ikonia | darkbishop: for restricted (closed source) drivers only | 08:13 |
ikonia | erbi: if your installing nvidia drivers from an exernal source you need to be careful and undersand what your doing and what it effects | 08:14 |

demonspork | Sektor try #linux or a channel specific to the language as well as this channel | 08:15 |
troubled | mustinet_: doesnt media player support WMV via plugin? | 08:15 |
Sektor | when you're creating shared libraries with libtool, and you have multiple shared libraries linking to the same (thirdparty) static lib, will the static vars and such be duplicated for each shared library? | 08:16 |
Sektor | demonspork, thanks | 08:16 |
nathan362 | hello, can anyone please tell me, where does MAIL command stores configuration like smtp/pop3 servers and credentials ? | 08:16 |
troubled | Sektor: try objtool on it and look? | 08:16 |
Omitt | I was wondering if anyone knows a considerable amount about viruses. I'm rather tempted to try to do an install from my hard drive rather than digging up a CD or downloading it. | 08:16 |
Omitt | Is that a risk? | 08:16 |
Sektor | troubled, do you suggest looking into the shared libraries or looking into the executable linked to the shared libraries? | 08:17 |
troubled | Sektor: sorry, objdump heh | 08:17 |
troubled | Sektor: or do you mean the output of ldd to see if anything is duped? | 08:17 |
constantin_ | well | 08:17 |
constantin_ | it's all better now | 08:17 |

Sektor | troubled, say I have a foo.exe linking to two shared libraries sh1.la and sh2.la, and both sh1 and sh2 link to some library st1.a that contains a global var int g_var;, my question is then, how many instances of g_var will my program contain | 08:18 |
Omitt | Canstantin, Are you on a laptop? | 08:18 |
[c0re] | hello i need help | 08:18 |
Wicked | troubled, hmm ok. ill take a look at that | 08:18 |
constantin_ | yes | 08:18 |
Omitt | It might be that annoying preference where it clicks if you tap the mouse pad | 08:19 |

[c0re] | i cant change seasons.... i wanna log in to kde | 08:19 |
Omitt | Go to preferences or system preferences, and check your mouse settings. | 08:19 |
constantin_ | oh maybe | 08:19 |
Omitt | I find it as annoying as hell | 08:19 |
constantin_ | but i can't right click if i turn that off | 08:19 |
Omitt | What? | 08:19 |
Omitt | Why? | 08:19 |
constantin_ | bc you have to do a 3 fingered tap to right click | 08:19 |
troubled | Sektor: I would assum only linking st1.a once | 08:19 |
[c0re] | i cant change seasons.... i wanna log in to kde | 08:19 |
constantin_ | really dumb configuration | 08:19 |
Omitt | I tend to use control in situations like that, but agreed, that is dumb not to give people that option. | 08:20 |
deever | hi | 08:20 |
Omitt | I was fiddling around with some software that allowed you to edit settings in other apps. | 08:20 |
Sektor | troubled, any pointers as to figuring it out? I tried explaining it to google, but he doesn't get it at all | 08:20 |
zezu | generic kernel is just optimized for p2/ppro isn't it ? | 08:20 |
deever | http://rafb.net/p/mBAHf919.html | 08:20 |

constantin_ | ctrl click doesnt work on ubuntu by default does it? | 08:20 |
andre_pl | does anyone know how I can configure my display to blank when I close my lid? currently it stays on... and I dont seem to have and 'power settings' in my menu anywhere. | 08:20 |
troubled | Sektor: ask the #c guys | 08:20 |
Omitt | I gave you some features that are not built in. Who knows, it might mess it up worse, it could be your solution. Can't remember the name tho.. | 08:20 |
Sektor | troubled, allright, muchos gratias | 08:20 |
deever | how can i apt make accept the local repo? | 08:20 |
troubled | Sektor: gl | 08:20 |

troubled | Sektor: let me know though for future questions if you would be so kind :) | 08:21 |

kernando | how can i amke it so when i click on a link in x-chat it will open up in my web browser? | 08:23 |
troubled | slap_stick: modprobe insmod's dependencies as well | 08:23 |
slap_stick | they both say they add modules to the kernel, i tried to insmod a kernel module and got an error so i modprobe'd it instead and it loaded | 08:23 |
Frogzoo | slap_stick: insmod inserts a binary file, modprobe searches standard paths | 08:24 |
andre_pl | Frogzoo: yep | 08:24 |
[c0re] | troubled, i dont know.. if i change the season its still login to gnome. | 08:24 |

andre_pl | Frogzoo: open | 08:25 |
Omitt | I'm seriously tempted to just go to Damn Small Linux | 08:25 |
slap_stick | ahh modprobe requires the modeules.dep that's probably why then | 08:25 |
troubled | [c0re]: im not sure if that means kde is installed fully just being in the list | 08:25 |
slap_stick | cool ;-) | 08:25 |

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 properly | 08:37 |
erpo | I just got a popup balloon telling me that my batter has 49% of its original capacity. Is there a command I can run to get all sorts of gratuitous information about my laptop's battery? | 08:38 |

troubled | zezu: i like tightvnc, but there are options diff vnc stuff to run a xserver on a headless display that you can vnc to and get a login, or you can run it manually from command line etc | 08:39 |

WIGGMPk | Ok, 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 |
Nergoth | guys, ubuntu server 8.10 has finger server enabled by default? :o | 08:41 |
[c0re] | troubled, gdm | 08:41 |
kindofabuzz | laku, 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 |
troubled | zezu: 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 time | 08:42 |
troubled | [c0re]: okay, try stop gdm with: /etc/init.d/gdm stop | 08:42 |
laku | kindofabuzz: 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 it | 08:42 |
kindofabuzz | laku, system > preferences > sound, that's if you're on Ghome | 08:42 |
kindofabuzz | gnome | 08:42 |
[c0re] | troubled, how? | 08:43 |
UnknownUser56 | in menu.lst in /boot/grub/ ,is it 'chainloader+1' or 'chainloader +1' ? | 08:43 |
troubled | [c0re]: sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop | 08:43 |
Nergoth | guys, has ubuntu server 8.10 finger server enabled by default? i tested my system by nmap and 79 port is open | 08:43 |

Nergoth | guys, 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 |
laku | kindofabuzz: For the most part, it all is set to 'Autodetect' | 08:43 |
