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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

WIGGMPkOk, ive been reading the reviews, running the LiveCD, etc. But hesitating on upgrading to 8.10.. My laptop just died, bought a new one, running Hardy off the old HD, but the hardware in the new laptop either means I compile a newer kernel and do a bunch of workarounds.. So my question, is how stable is 8.10 and what type of bugs we talking? I just need to do homework + internet + movies on it.. Suggestions, feedback??08:41
Nergothguys, ubuntu server 8.10 has finger server enabled by default? :o08:41
[c0re]troubled, gdm08:41
kindofabuzzlaku, i relally don't know what else, that's all i did to get sound in VLC, is your system sounds on Pulse?08:41
troubledzezu: well, the headless vnc is a real pita to setup for 24/7 running even after reboot, but its nice once its running since you get a normal session display manager login. but you can also run it manually in a shell on that manchine to lauch it one time08:42
troubled[c0re]: okay, try stop gdm with: /etc/init.d/gdm stop08:42
lakukindofabuzz: How do I find that out?08:42
troubled[c0re]: you may see your screen flicker a moment as it switchs to tty7 and back again to kill it08:42
kindofabuzzlaku, system > preferences > sound, that's if you're on Ghome08:42
kindofabuzzgnome08:42
[c0re]troubled, how?08:43
UnknownUser56in menu.lst in /boot/grub/ ,is it 'chainloader+1' or 'chainloader +1' ?08:43
troubled[c0re]: sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop08:43
Nergothguys, has ubuntu server 8.10 finger server enabled by default? i tested my system by nmap and 79 port is open08:43
[c0re]lmao its funny troubled its runs both of them08:43
[c0re]troubled,  yea i did08:43
Nergothguys, has ubuntu server 8.10 finger server enabled by default? i tested my system by nmap and 79 port is open. can I remove fingerd?08:43
lakukindofabuzz: For the most part, it all is set to 'Autodetect'08:43
[c0re]now?08:43
yerchinI checked the WINE and DVD pages. There's nothing about DVD software. The icons for the exes have a little "X" on them.08:43
troubledzezu: try vnc4server or "apt-cache search vnc | less"08:43
troubled[c0re]: start kdm: sudo /etc/init.d/kdm start"08:44
UnknownUser56yerchi:run windows dvd software under WINE08:44
powertool08UnknownUser56: I don't know if it matters, i have about 5 spaces in mine08:44
troubled[c0re]: better yet, hold on that and run "startkde" first as that user to see if it starts08:44
UnknownUser56powertool08:heh thanks08:44
kelvin911does the ubuntu netbook remix have terminal?08:44
kindofabuzzlaku, are you on Intrepid? figured Pulse is the default08:44
troubled[c0re]: if kdm has startup issues, it might get stuck in a loop for a bit08:44
zezutroubled, ok thanks08:44
yerchinunknownuser56: what type of software? I'm just aiming to install software from this DVD's exe. It isn't a movie or anything.08:45
Omitthaha08:45
OmittI just found that I didn't mount this 'ere disk properly08:45
lakukindofabuzz: No, I'm still using 8.04. But when I tested the sounds in the sound thingie. They didn't work. But then I changed them all from 'Autodetect' to 'ALSA' and I could hear the "test sound"08:46
OmittI hope the files are still in /mnt/08:46
troubledzezu: it takes some setup, but its well worth it imho. use the inetd option without vnc password so anyone can just connect to the vnc but gets the greeter. but that also means you need to setup your gdm/kdm/xdm to allow tcp connections from localhost, which most distros dont by default08:46
powertool08troubled: does tightvnc come with a config file? I was messing with it earlier and neither defaults (/etc/vnc.conf & ~/.vnc/vnc.conf) exist, where can I get an example config to edit?08:46
mzuverinksince I change my password, every time I sudo I have to use my old password, whats the fix for this?08:46
troubledzezu: just poke around in /etc/X11 for the options for for your display manager08:46
UnknownUser56 yerchin:run the exe under WINE - there should be an option to emulate on right click08:46
zezutroubled, okk08:46
lakukindofabuzz: But still nothing in VLC, although, I think I changed it back to ALSA.08:46
yerchinThere is but I don't have permission to use it or do anything.08:46
troubledpowertool08: not sure about the linux tightvnc, I tried vnc4server for a headless setup08:46
volandHave anybody faced with usr/include/libxml2/libxml/xmlmemory.h: No such file or directory error. Such file exists08:46
kindofabuzzlaku, yeah i don't get the whole sound thing, on pulse i can hear the test, but on Alsa I can't even though I have sound elswhere on Alsa08:47
deeverhttp://rafb.net/p/mBAHf919.html08:47
deeverhow can i make apt accept the local repo?08:47
troubledpowertool08: a good way to find out is to ask dpkg for a file manifest: dpkg -L <pkgname>, or look in /usr/share/doc/<pkgname> for a default/example conf08:47
Nergothguys, has ubuntu server 8.10 finger server enabled by default? i tested my system by nmap and 79 port is open. can I remove fingerd?08:47
yerchinThis room needs one more person...08:47
lakukindofabuzz: Ok, well thanks anyways. :-)08:47
powertool08troubled: ok, thanks08:47
nathan362 where does MAIL command stores configuration like smtp/pop3 servers and credentials ?08:48
troubledzezu: come to think of it, I think kdm/gdm has a grpahical tool to allow setting that kinda option for ya (tcp etc)08:48
kindofabuzzlaku, look in synaptic for vlc, there are several plugins yoou "may" need to install08:48

troubledUnknownUser56: well, probably closer to 7 years, but still. its pretty good. Any time I need space, its just a matter of running lvresize on a volume and adding space to another one, while in single user mode10:39
djiezesikonia: okay thx, i will download them then. thx for the answer10:39
kanhiya78what should i do?10:40
ikoniadjiezes sorry it's not what your looking for10:40
Hikefukanhiya78, it means that you added a repo that doesn't have a key associated with it.10:40
HikefuI think.10:40
djiezesikonia: no problem, it's an answer to my question :)10:40
HikefuWhat repos did you add?10:40

kanhiya78Hikefu: i do not know because i am new to linux and what to do to overcome10:41
fdePavlz: umm, so what does winrpt do?10:41
troubledUnknownUser56: although, i also usually install a small minimal CLI only debian in 1gig or so that I can boot to work on my main install and do lvm commands on the root fs. otherwise, init 1, is usually enough to umount my /usr, /var, /home and /tmp and move space around10:41
kanhiya7892 updates are available to me10:41
kanhiya78Hikefu: now what to do? which one to install10:42
troubledUnknownUser56: plus, adding a new drive is cake, just make a partition (or multiple if you ever want the abiility to install another os on it) and assign each partition as a volume. you can migrate data to and from any drive if you ever need to reclaim one of the partitions10:42
HikefuIt shouldn't be a problem to update. To be certain, can you past a copy of the file /etc/apt/sources.list10:42
fdekanhiya78: sudo aptitude install ubuntu-keyring ... once that's installed, it should be fine to ignore it, I doubt you even know how to add other repos  ;)10:43
Hikefukanhiya78, if you haven't added sources, simply do what fde said.10:43
troubledUnknownUser56: example: new 100gig drive (easy numbers), make 10x10gig partitions and add them to a volume group (say "volumes"), then if you need to install windows, you can always migrate off the first partition of the 10, kill it and make it windows10:43

jdk1976muahahaha11:12
_cerberus_Hey all, I'm attempting to connect to my computer running hardy-heron using a dumb terminal over a serial port. I run '/sbin/getty /dev/rfcomm0 38400 vt100' and am presented with a login prompt on the dumb terminal. When I enter my username however I'm greeted with the message 'No utmp entry. You must exec "login" from the lowest level "sh"' Any ideas what the problem could be?11:12
ActionParsnipyerchin: can you give use the output of mount please11:12
ActionParsnip!paste | yerchin11:12
ubottuyerchin: 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)11:12
zhaiguys.. where can i download the latest version of ubuntu?11:12
fdekmg_: are you running synaptic or the add/remove tool or anything else when you're trying this command? only one apt frontend can run at a time...11:12
jdk1976I'm going to show her what a real os can do11:12
vegahm, i have 2 users on intrepid, one that's logged in X, when i try to "switch user" to the other one it says it cannot start X, why? i mean if X is already running fine, what config is the other one trying to use??11:12
yerchinwhat do I type in command line to get that?11:12
ne2k__jdk1976: you mean Windows Vista?11:12
troubledkmg_: curious, what happens when you run: touch /var/lib/dpkg/lock11:13

r3dxphello, I disabled gdm so my box starts up in console. When I login through console and before i type startx to start x server, i wish to have my wireless connection and all my network connections to run on startup. Current setting is configured so that all my network connections (network-manager) are loaded after startx is executed.11:13

fdezhai: http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/releases/8.10/release/  should probably grab the torrent if you have a client for it.11:13
Luke771jdk1976: geeks DO use the alternate install (it's way quicker than the Live CD + GUI install thingy), and even tho Ubuntu isn't a real-geek distro, the alternate install is very popular among experienced users, so if you don't get seeders, something must be wrong with your bittorrent setp.... or more simply, you just need to let it run until it catches some seeders11:13
r3dxphow do i change it so that my wireless connection works as soon as the computer boots normally ?11:13
ActionParsnipr3dxp: then you need to configure wifi in /etc/network/interfaces11:13
troublederbi: sorry, not sure what your problem is, so stop reapeating it to me in every channel :p11:13
erbisorry11:14
Codemaster|Mobiljdk1976: possibly a router issue, as well, concerning the torrent11:14
kmg_troubled: it gives me the same "you must manually run 'dpkg --configure -a'" message twice, once at the beginning and once at the end of aptitude install, in the middle it goes from "Reading package lists... Done" to "Initializing package states... Done"11:14
_cerberus_ActionParsnip: cheers, I'll have a look11:14
jdk1976Luke771: 8 min left on this dl11:14

fus10nxWhat would be the best way to keep track of which files mplayer has played and keep them in a file or database or something? I'm just trying to keep track of EVERY time it plays 1.mpg, 2.mpg, 3.mpg, etc. becuase I have a ton of files in a constant loop and I'd like to keep track of them in a solid way. ANy suggestions?11:16

yerchinhttp://paste.ubuntu.com/73808/11:18
ikoniakmg_: you can do touch /root/test11:18
fdezhai: I meant the .torrent file11:18
kmg_ikonia: /var is not a seperate mount from / which is /dev/sda111:18
troubledso far it sounds like only /var11:19
ikoniakmg_: run touch /root/test11:19
troubledhe ran an fsck earlier on it as well with no errors :/11:19

kmg_cannot touch /root/test: read-only file system11:20
ikoniatroubled on error remount-ro11:20
jdk1976...and god created torrents11:20
troubledikonia: i see that, but mount should be reporting accurately, and it says rw11:20
erUSULr3dxp: it should appear with a bar showing the signal strengh11:20
troubledoh nm, thats not a full paste11:20
ikoniakmg_: please do "mount -o rw /dev/sda1 /mnt"11:20
r3dxpyes11:20
erUSULr3dxp: click on it11:21
r3dxpand ?11:21
troubledkmg_: might i suggest: mount -o remount,rw /11:21
erUSULit should try to connect to that ap/network11:21
samson_hello11:21

r3dxperUSUL: you are misunderstanding my question, what i am asking is, i want my wireless connection to work on normal boot, BEFORE i run startx to load x server11:22
ikoniar3dxp put the settings in your inetrfaces file then11:22
troubledikonia: his on it now though, so you would want a bind mount in that case11:22
zhaifde: yeah.. im about to download it now.. but im having a hard time downloadingit11:22
troubledkmg_: anyways, after you mount/remount it, try touch again11:23
ikoniatorgrim_: as it's read only you shouldn't have to bind mount (fingers crossed)11:23
ikoniatroubled: sorry for you11:23
r3dxpwhere can i find settings?11:23
ikoniar3dxp: in your interfaces file11:23
troubledikonia: ya np. odd that its reporting no errors on fsck and its reporting mounted as rw atm11:23
fdezhai: what is the issue?11:23
troubledikonia: somethin isn't right either way11:23
samson_n=bartosz@87-205-11-36.ip.netia.com.pl11:23
r3dxpyeah, but where do i include the SSID / pw to the wireless network ?11:23
ikoniatroubled: depends what the error is, may not be a file system corruption error, could be no inodes11:23
ActionParsnipr3dxp: http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/setting-up-an-network-interfaces-file/11:23
ikoniatroubled: df -i is your friend ;)11:24
r3dxpthanks11:24
r3dxpill look11:24
troubledikonia: aye, but that would still report 0% to him iirc11:24
ikoniayes, I suppose that would come up as a space issue11:24
ikoniaunless - it can't write to /var due to space at boot time so mounts it read-only11:24
troubledkmg_: probably best to give us the exact output of "df -hi /"11:24
troubledive never seen a full disk remount ro though for space11:25
ikoniatroubled I've see it for specific logging issues11:25
ikonianever on ubuntu though11:25
troubledanyways, time to narrow it down some more11:25
fder3dxp: System > Preferences > Network Configuration ... edit the wireless connection and add it to there11:25
troubledhe did mention he had _alot_ of pr0n though heh11:26
ActionParsnipfde: he's in single user mode so that wont come into play11:26
fdePeople underestimate the benefits of smart partitioning.... really hate that Ubuntu by default dumps everything into /11:26
kmg_ikonia: actually, everything I touch says read-only file system11:27
kmg_ikonia: but if I do like `touch /root' it says touch: setting times of `root': read-only file system11:27

K_DallasGood morning folks! Recently my mplayer (ubuntu hardy) didn't produce any audio output and I reinstalled the packaged in the hope to solve the problem (it used to work just fine) with no avail. Then I used -ao esd and voila! It was all right. Isn't it supposed to use alsa?11:31
troublederUSUL: ya, just thought about that11:31
sKeithsdoes 'apt-get install ee' work for anyone? version 8.10 - i'm getting 'E: Couldn't find package ee'11:31
erUSULK_Dallas: no esd is allright. pulseaudio is compatible with esd11:31
fdeK_Dallas: its supposed to use pulseaudio ... which has esd support11:31
erUSUL!pulseaudio | K_Dallas11:31
ubottuK_Dallas: PulseAudio is a sound server intended as a drop-in replacement for !ESD - See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PulseAudio for information and installation instructions11:31
troublederUSUL: still, the odd thing is that he ran an fsck without error, so it shouldnt have came up. and clearly it wasnt a space problem since he is using it now fine11:32
fdeK_Dallas: you can make that permanent in /etc/mplayer/config (I think that's where?)11:32
kmg_troubled: its running dpkg on tons of stuff, i'm gonna switch over to x-chat because empathy is totally sucking right now and once its done ill write up my df -hi11:32

fdeK_Dallas: probably nothing else was occupying the devices before when you ran mplayer...11:33
K_Dallasfde, I see11:33

YOSIplease anyone willing to help?11:34
K_DallaserUSUL, i see. i am going to look into the config right now11:34
fdeYOSI: maybe if you ask a question more developed than "anyone using jdownloader"...11:35
troublederUSUL: iirc, mount displays from /etc/mtab, but that would still mean that the system was ro from the start, but shouldnt have happened on a clean fs unless something happened on startup11:35
r3dxphow do i setup my wireless connection & router login info to my /etc/network/interfaces ?11:35
troubledoh well, least its working. just very odd behaviour given his symptoms11:35
K_DallaserUSUL, in the config file in my home directory, there was nothing, in the global setting here is what it says:11:36
K_Dallasao=pulse,alsa,11:36
K_Dallasshould i change it to: ao = sdl:esd11:36
kmg_troubled: i think it was the ubuntu recovery mode thing11:36
fder3dxp: look in man interfaces ... then type /Examples  ... I believe there is one that is exactly what you need11:36
YOSIwell i installed the jdownloader...it uses java so in installed a .jar file... but i dont know how to run the program since there is not any link in the meno or the desktop11:37
kmg_troubled: i'm pretty sure i was able to write to the drive before I ran that and went into single-user mode11:37
troubledkmg_: possibly. never used it before though11:37
YOSIi dont know ho to make a link to this program11:37
fdeYOSI: jar whatever.jar11:37
kmg_troubled: and I got to it by doing init 111:37
YOSIwhat?11:37
fdeYOSI: that is how you run the .jar11:37
regebroHmm. I don't know much about sound, but should there really be an ALC889 codec with my Intel ICH8 card? (MacBook).11:37
troubledkmg_: did it finish yet?11:37
erUSULK_Dallas: no; pulse,alsa seems like a good setting for me11:37
erUSULK_Dallas: not sure why it fails11:38
YOSIi run the jar already and installed11:38
kmg_troubled: it's still going.  it's probably gotta do like half the 8.04 -> 8.10 upgrade packages =P11:38
YOSIbut i want to run the program....should i run the jar again??11:38
K_DallaserUSUL, darn! now I have to use -ao esd each time I use mplayer11:38
troubledkmg_: ooh, well hope you got the space hehe11:38
fdeYOSI: ok... java executables are all in .jar format... so you have to do the same for the program itself11:38
kmg_troubled: and of course I'm in single user mode so I can't access the other ttys11:39
YOSIok, but where is the program installed?11:39
kmg_troubled: yeah, im pretty sure I do11:39

troubledzhai: sure, likely? no11:47
zhaiis there any antivirus applicable here?11:47
ikoniazhai: it is possible, but the definition of virus's is not what you'd expect on a windows platform11:47
troubleda virus is just a malicious program after all11:47
ChrisBeswickit could get one, but its not likely, the usage is low, and the technical expertise of the users is generally higher that windows, so mostly virus writers don't bother11:48
ikoniazamba: there is anyivirus applications, but to be honest for linux based fil systems they are mostly redundent due tot he different way "virus" or exploits workk11:48
fdezhai: you can use anti-virus software sure... mostly to protect your windows using friends though11:48
troubledzhai: chances are you would get a rootkit on *nix instead of a virus11:48

ChrisBeswickis vmware still in the canonical commercial repostitory?11:52
Sektor__troubled, remember the issue with the shared libraries this morning11:53
troubledSektor__: ya, how that go for ya?11:53
zambaikonia: there is? cool :)11:53
=== sirfelius_ is now known as sirfelius
jim_pChrisBeswick: nope11:53
ikoniazamba sorry, that wasn't for you11:53
erUSULshirish: well the shell is the interpreter of commands and scripts the terminal was the phisicall monitor+keyboard nowadays there exist only virtual terminals (VT) and terminal emulators (xterm; gnome-terminal etc)11:53
zambaikonia: i know :)11:53
ChrisBeswickwell that stops me giving that advice then :D11:53
jim_plol11:54
Sektor__troubled, I asked a colleague who's pretty smart when it comes to linux issues, but he had to dig for an hour or so, and according to him, in linux the variables are shared, opposed to windows where each dll will have it's own copy of the global var11:54
erUSULshirish: but many people use both terms and others to refer to the comand line interface of unix11:54
Sektor__troubled, you can modify this behaviour with the -fvisibility-ms-compat flag11:54
sKeithsis there anyway I can use the 7.10 apt-get package database for 8.10?11:54
troubledSektor__: interesting that MS duplicates them and linux doesnt11:54
Sektor__troubled, but you than have to export your functions: #define EXPORT __attribute__((visibility("default")))11:55
fdesKeiths: no11:55
monadwrsKeiths: Why would you want to?11:55
SlimeyPetesKeiths: not really. You'll wind up with package dependency problems.11:55
sKeithstrying to get 'ee' which is in 7.1011:55
fdesKeiths: well, correction, you can, but you'd have to re-compile everything, the binaries wouldn't work11:55
shirishhi all, keyboard stuff if CR stands for Carriage Return what would  LF and NL stand for?11:55
troubledSektor__: I suppose MS approach is to work around namespace issues or something perhaps?11:55
Sektor__troubled, I was surprised too, this is definitely a recipe for disaster when porting applications11:55
=== x_ is now known as Erwin
monadwrshirish: Line Feed, and NL is probably new line.11:55
troubledSektor__: ya, ive seen some of the junk you gotta go through when dealing with multi OS apps heh11:56
fdesKeiths: you can add a 7.10 source repo... then apt-get -b source ee -t <whatever_7.10_codename_was>11:56
juanitossadfasdf11:56
Sektor__troubled, I think it's just a different approach, in MS default visibility is hidden, whereas in linux default visibility is to export everything11:56
troubledSektor__: probably could have found that out in the gcc manpage, but god knows thats a week long read :)11:57
=== sirfelius_ is now known as sirfelius
sKeithsthanks fde. i'll try that now11:57
troubledSektor__: i figure they hide stuff so they dev's dont have to worry about conflicts in naming or something11:57
Sektor__troubled, yeah, I went through a bunch of documentation, but the problem is very specific (not a lot of ppl had a ready answer) so I gave up, I'm too busy to delve deep into it11:57

fde!hello | omegaomni11:58
ubottuomegaomni: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!11:58

ablyss[mobile]jim_p: nice me too.  I haven't tried the linux version yet though, you?12:01

jim_pablyss[mobile]: do you need it for something particular?12:03

Transporterim just a bit confused12:03
craigtaohello12:03
Sektor__inflex, but that might be for the other way around, to access ubuntu box from windows12:03
inflexNo, I need to use NFS.  Bah, no matter, I'll hack it up in the /etc/exports file... just thought maybe Ubuntu would have something specific12:03
ablyss[mobile]jim_p: no not really. Just trying to get an idea if people use it on linux12:03
Transportersome ppl are saying that xfce or flux box should be for starters12:04
inflexIt's Ubuntu->Ubuntu  and many other *nix machines12:04
TTilusinflex: check shares-admin12:04

jim_pablyss[mobile]: i checked on their site and it says its for 2 eepcs12:04

Transporterwill i encounter problems if i try with gnome first12:04
=== adit_1 is now known as dita_virgin
rconanTransporter, if you're new using ubuntu with gnome is probably best12:04
rconanTransporter, most of the easy-to-use bits of ubuntu work best on GNOMe12:05
Transporterooohhh is that so???12:05
jim_pTransporter: xfce is for slower pcs, because xfce is lighter than gnome. anything in *box requires you to be a bit adept with linux and configurations12:05
fdeTransporter: its more a case of system resources, gnome is designed for beginners12:05

jburdA suggestion though.  It reads "Check CD for defects" when I'm using a DVD.  Can confuse users.  Perhaps "Check disc for defects" might be better12:46

DarkOOAny idea how to fix suspend and hibernate in 8.10 on Gericom X5. Running sudo /etc/acpi/sleep.sh somehow works but clicking on suspend in shutdown menu not. Ubuntu suspends computer but after resume there is only black screen. No CTRL+ALT+BACKSPCE or CTR+ALT+DELETE is not working.12:47
lee_m2k: bad idea, each file is ~200+MB, would be very bad :)12:48
m2klee_, yeah, if that doesnt work for you also there might be a gui for mencoder12:48
m2klee_, depends on your internet connection ;)12:48

wiseyfde, i'm just going to reboot and see what happens. thanks!12:49

kiruhow can i resize the root partition14:26
fus10nxwhat if i dont want to destory anything, just make it fault tolerant14:26
zeno___PeskyJ: command line i dont know how to via nautilus14:27
ikoniafus10nx read the thread I've sent you14:27
SlartAd0: an os is as secure as the user14:27
fus10nxI am :)14:27
fus10nxFirst we destory one of the disks in the mirror.14:27
PeskyJzeno___: what is your end goal? for example to mount a drive temporarily for one session, to always have it mounted whenever you log in,?14:27
fus10nxjust confused me14:27
ikoniafus10nx what part is confusing you14:27
Ximalwell ikonia : how bout encryption that if you disconnect the drive from it's originating pc it is un-readable14:27
fus10nxdestorying the data but i'll re-read everyhting14:27
ikoniafus10nx: if you want to do it while I'm here, I'm happy to help14:27
m2kXimal, encfs is really nice, not sure if it has the exact features you want14:27
zeno___PeskyJ: login14:27
ikoniaXimal: well thats any form of encyption as it won't unencypt without the key14:28
SlartAd0: have you tried running rkhunter?14:28
wiseyikonia, is (hd0,0) the first partition of the first disk?14:28
Doktorn-14:28
ikoniawisey correct14:28
Aperculumhow do I check my filesystems in ubuntu?14:28
m2kXimal, use a certificate and keep the key on the local system14:28
Ximali basically want my firmware in my bios to be the key14:28
ApOgEEkAd0, how secure do you mean?14:28
ikoniaXimal thats not a good idea14:28
Ximalthe mdsum in it that is14:28
m2kAperculum, e2fsck for ext214:28
Ximalsure it is ...14:28
Aperculumm2k, I can't find it in menu14:29
Ximalif i pull a drive off the pc it can't be used otherwise14:29
wiseyikonia, i think vista is on my second partition. so i would have to type (hd0,1)14:29
ikoniaXimal: then stop askign how to do it if you think it's the right thing to do14:29
ikoniawisey you got it14:29
Ximali'm just asking if there is a program anyone here might know about is all14:29
wiseyikonia, hopefully it works14:29

PeskyJzeno___: ok well you should read the man page on fstab and mount to understand how they work... then you need to add an entry to /etc/fstab and provide credentials14:30
m2kXimal, try GDecrypt14:30
m2kAperculum, not sure, will check14:30
zeno___PeskyJ: i did, but in the man page i didnt seen a option for username and password14:31

PeskyJzeno___: the admin account in ubuntu is a normal user account, you need to use sudo to do things as root... you probably just need to change the (group most likely) permissions on your mount point14:44

Slartdigitalspaghetti: and do a "ls -la" of the folder with the file14:45
jribSOURdiesel: you should remove the old one first (purge the corresponding package).  However, adobe's release is beta and at least for me crashes my browser on some flash14:45

Slartibartfastnikitis, when especially you are a developer developing 64 based softwares and again this is a setback coz not many people have started using 64-bit systems, many are still with the 32-bit system, but I must guarantee you that 64-bit linux systems are very great14:57

xiroVneozen, Well.. The touchpad is working.. but i miss a driver for it... I had to install a driver in windows too, but i could use the touchpad without.. it just makes the movement more smooth.14:58
Slartibartfastlinny, why don't you try the mkisofs on commandline, been using it14:59
neozenxiroV: hmm14:59
nikitisjrib: ah so openjava is for browsers then14:59
Great_Gatsbyand i cant use the b43 driver14:59
neozenxiroV: couldn't tell you14:59

fdenikitis: it is essentially the upstream for sun-java615:00
ikoniaSOURdiesel: up to you15:00
xiroVneozen, using a touchpad without a driver, is like using one of the old mouses with a ball inside, with the cencors really dirty.. if you know what i mean..15:00

Great_Gatsbywhat PeskyJ ?15:01
xiroVwell.. i have read some articles about touchpad driver in linux, but i couldnt find any exact explanation on how to install it.15:01
fdeSOURdiesel: if you have things backed up, or don't care about losing anything, you can go ahead and clean-install, it'll result in a cleaner system ... keep in mind though that Ubuntu does a lot of work to ensure upgrades are seamless and do not leave cruft around.15:01

gwennneverytime I logoff I'm loosing all my settings15:26
n8tuserGreat_Gatsby-> your hint there is, when you wanted to use wireless, your route table should reflect usage of eth1(wireless) but what you pasted reflects eth0(wired?)15:26
Tyrathbut i can't update it because it won't let me, all it does is give me hints on locating the repositories which doesn't help me one bit15:27

dvyjonesMy sound sometimes disappear, and I have to restart my comp to get it back. Any idea why?16:09

dvyjonesCould I killall pulseaudio?16:10
Joukeeemy sound rarely ever works, at random moments and restarting doesnt work..16:10
Uplink!sound16:10
fdedvyjones: its hackish, but you can do 'pulseaudio --stop ** pulseaudio --start' (ignore errors) to get it back...16:10
ubottuIf you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP316:10

compu73rg33kwhere is the gnome character palette configuration file stored? does anybody know? I can't seem to find it using various locate commands16:58
kephuoh, the cable. It's called differently here, so I didn't make the connection16:58
hwildecompu73rg33k, accessories -> character map  ?16:58
kephuoh god the pun I apologize16:58
Uplinklol16:59
hwildekephu, cat5 is the international name for that spec :)16:59
compu73rg33kNo hwilde, the character palette that you can add to a panel16:59
hwildecompu73rg33k, sry I dunno what that is16:59
kephuhwilde: doesn't automatically mean it's commonly used everywhere ;P16:59
compu73rg33kI've customized the palettes and would like to save the file so that if I reinstall I don't have to recreate them16:59
hwildekephu, connect with a cable and reboot into linux and come back .16:59
Uplinkok just get a ethernet cable kephu16:59
Uplinkcompu73rg33k: im not sure what your trying to do16:59

Uplinkcompu73rg33k: why would you need more than ASCII on your panel?17:00
compu73rg33kUplink, have you used the character palette on the panel?17:01
SOURdieselhwilde: would the fact that the partitions have key icons next to them have anything to do with not being able to do anything to them even with live cd?17:01

AdvoWorkhi there, im trying to recover data from a HD using ubuntu, the HD's were setup on raid 10. Ive plugged the 2 hard drives from the array into my pc, any ideas how I can see the data, or where it would be mounted?17:08
mysterycThere is no audio working :s i checked with alsa, it's turned on, but i still have no audio :S17:08
Slart AdvoWork I don't think it will be that easy17:08
AdvoWorkSlart any suggestions? i didnt think it would be easy :(17:09
hwildeAdvoWork, you need to hook them up to a raid controller...17:09
jeebsterhwilde: it seems like I had to just reset it twice - on the first time it didn't get it back, but after bringing it down and up once more it started moving17:09

kephuUplink, I discovered something I've missed due to update taking place late at night: "setting up network interfaces" at boot sure does take its sweet time for some reason17:10
hwildeAdvoWork, read this:  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Redundant_array_of_independent_disks17:11
sken?17:11
hwildeAdvoWork, basically RAID 10 (or 1+0) uses both striping and mirroring17:11
Uplinkkephu: yes it does... :)17:11
SlartAdvoWork: I think you can look forward to a lot of experimenting... go read up on how raid works, what kind of parameters there are.. and then learn how to handle it on linux.. how to set it up ... on a detailed level.17:11
hwildeAdvoWork, that will make it quite a challenge to read the data just off the disk.17:11
kephuSo it's actually SUPPOSED to?17:11
hwildeAdvoWork, what you need is to hook it up to another raid controller so it can handle the striping and mirroring17:11
AdvoWorkhwilde are there any quick or easyish solutions to do so17:11

afazelI've I was working on it yesterday, let me find the link17:14
Slartsken: adobe has released an alpha of the new 64 bit flash plugin if that's what you mean17:14
dou213Jack_Sparrow: no, only usb17:14
hwildeAdvoWork, basically those drives are like either side of a zipper.  you need a raid controller to put hte pieces together...17:14

a_l_eForsakenSoul: ... and if you try to use another system on your computer do you get into the internet?18:16
fdeorci: request it via bugs.launchpad.net or brainstorm.ubuntu.com and see how you get on?18:16
wwpiexecSOURdiesel: yes, swapoff.. then you need to resize the extended partition.. then resize anything inside it to cover the extra space18:17

sabayonuserI did an Ubuntu install with usb-creator a while back but syslinux wouldn't boot it like so: http://www.pendrivelinux.com/2008/10/06/error-could-not-find-kernel-image-linux/ .18:53

Gneayes, tsclient should work just fine as well19:18

afancyActionParsnip: yes, it works. thanks20:23

hwildesambagirl, are they 64bit processors ?20:23
sambagirli dunon?20:23
hwildesambagirl, model number?20:23
sambagirli thought 2 cpus at 32 would = 64?20:23
sambagirlhold on.20:24
diffredI have a GeForce2 MX/MX 400 graphics card, which is quite crappy and compiz runs quite slow. I wanna purchase another graphics card that makes compiz fly. Which one do you recommend me arround 100$?20:24
nube|Chrizz|: if emerald is running your new theme should be active straightaway .. do you have it running normally ?20:24
n8tusersambagirl-> just for comparison, about how much ballpark figure they charge you for that? in my area something like that is about 450 bux20:24
branehi all20:24
Phoenix87Gnea is group ok20:24
GneaPhoenix87: it looks just fine to me - are you sure it's not a graphics card configuration issue?20:24
hwildesambagirl, read this:  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/64-bit    scroll down to 32 vs 64 bit20:24
|Chrizz|nube: I just installed it in the synaptic package installer, It should be working normally20:24
sambagirlit says 2 x Intel Xeon DP CPU's20:24
Phoenix87Gnea i don't know20:25

hwildesambagirl, the server,   ot yeah the motherboard would tell us20:25

jim_psavid: remove the module and reload it?20:26
Phoenix87maybe some kernel module has been deleted20:26
GneaPhoenix87: sudo seems to be just fine, it's just not loading up the GUI20:26
hwildesambagirl, will if it's not 64bit hardware, then you can't install the 64bit OS on it20:27
GneaPhoenix87: the printer wouldn't cause gdm to not load.20:27
sambagirlok hwilde20:27
hwildesambagirl, but 2 x 32bit CPUs does not add up to a 64bit CPU.  it's the memory architecture20:27

Some_uxHow do i remove Hardware in ubuntu ? I want to remove a network card.20:52
ActionParsnipbauer_: sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get upgrade20:52
evokeIt is  a stripped down version of ubuntu20:52
ActionParsnipevoke: tar zxvf <file>20:53
lomenerhttp://paste.ubuntu-fr-secours.org/src-652620:53
zsquarepluscevoke: this is ubuntu, not debian ;-) but those tar.gz may be a root filesystem, so you'd uncompress it to a formated patititon and install a boot loader20:53
zsquarepluscevoke: the other thing it can be, is a initial ramdisk, that is laoded togteher with a kernel. that how most installations work thesedays20:54
bauer_if i do sudo apt-get update it looks like it will update everything right? is there a way to just get the update for firefox on its own? cant really chew up my bandwith atm20:54
chubsthose are usually just gz'ed though20:54

jeebsterLoveGuru: protip: if you have to run ./configure on something it (usually) implies building it yourself, esp. if you have "make" after it - get the source package - it *is* there21:29
chubsKillerOrca: ahh. well if the livecd runs you can partition with it no problem, i'm not sure how easy it is to partition with the alternate cd, i would assume you can get to cfdisk but don't have much experience with it.

jeebsterapeiron, they don't control the free'ness of the app itself, which is completely written by the developers of it.

jj_galvezRusty0918: how many cdrom's do you have in your computer?21:58
Rusty0918One21:58
jinjeebster, besides mplayer does not have a better GUI than vlc21:58
Rusty0918Just one21:58
Slartelvirolo: probably because noone has stepped up and packaged it... why don't you take a shot at it?21:59
alec868can anyone help me install wireless drivers for ubuntu 8.10 on an eee pc21:59
jeebsterjin, smplayer had a pretty good gui, although I don't know if you even need one for it :321:59
elviroloSlart: huh well, i don't know anything about packaging :)21:59
jj_galvezI would still try burning the cdrom again from the source iso (make sure the checksum is correct on the ISO too) just to make sure its not a problem with the media21:59
Slartelvirolo: what better way to learn? ;)22:00
Rusty0918OK22:00
krimplayer is really good without the gui, no need for it so to say.22:00
Rusty0918I'll burn again...how do do the checksum?22:00
Slart!md522:00
ubottuTo verify your Ubuntu ISO image (or other files for which an MD5 checksum is provided), see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/VerifyIsoHowto or http://www.linuxquestions.org/linux/answers/LQ_ISO/Checking_the_md5sum_in_Windows22:00

KurtKrautWhat you you guys recommend as a replacement of Audacity ?22:03
wilsonnckchazco: you mean a cli method?22:03
apeironKurtKraut, What's wrong with Audacity?22:03
chazcowilsonnck - Yep22:03
elviroloSlart: yes it is quite interesting22:03
KurtKrautapeiron: it doesn't like my sound card. Crashes or does not record my microphone output.22:03
apeironKurtKraut, And other programs record fine?22:04
elvirolountil last week, i used exclusively KDE, so i had amarok... but Kubuntu is so badly polished that i decided to give gnome a shot22:04
KurtKrautapeiron: actually, none of them record. But I can clearly hear my voice back from the speakers.22:04
jinjeebster, it works perfect. even better than VLC :-)22:04
KurtKrautapeiron: but even if Audacity were recording, it would still crash22:04
jinI think I have to say goodbye to VLC22:04
jinsubtitle/audio selection is even easier :-)22:05

jeebsterWhich it originally wasn't D:22:05
Dr_willisKillerOrca,  sounds like the refresh rates on the 2 os's differ.22:05
KillerOrcaDr_willis: why would that move a screen image too far to one side?22:06
jeebsterAlso, jin - I'd really recommend you to at least build the mplayer part of smplayer yourself :)22:06
Dr_willisKillerOrca,  you could just ahve ubuntu share the  desktop , and access it from the windows box with a vnc viewer.22:06

constantin_how do i place trash on my desktop??22:06

VSpikenintendork32: not a good idea22:07
sudobashdont try to upgrade an OS from 3000 miles away22:07
jeebsterjin: 1) the decoding etc. support has gotten even better, ordered chapters support and ASS rendering has gotten better22:07
Dr_willisKillerOrca,  some crt's are just that way.. ive seen it with dualbooting also.. I dont use crts any more.. so cant really say much more on the topic, other then check  the refresh-rates  or other monitor settings.. be sure they are identical on both os's22:07
nintendork32ok i wont22:07
jeebsteralso, jin - H.264 in AVI is eww D:22:07
Dr_willisKillerOrca,  kvm's often cause some issues with ubuntu ive seen several other people in here with monitor/setting issues due to using KVM's22:08
nintendork32ill put it on an ext3 partition22:08
VSpikenintendork32: do you need to share data with a windows install? is that the issue?22:08
vpereirai would like to know, what usb stick wlan is reconized by default by ubuntu ?22:08
blakbeardscrotum^_^22:09
KillerOrcaDr_willis: well it seems to not be the KVM, I had the ubuntu box on another monitor before I moved it to the switch and put another computer on the old monitor and the screen was also too far to one side22:09
Dr_willisKillerOrca,  the last crt i used that had similer issues.. just had to hit the 'auto-fix' button.. yep. it was an annoyance.22:09
nintendork32VSpike I plan to reinstall windows with dual boot22:10
Dr_willisKillerOrca,  I got a similer issue on my OLD imacDV under Linux.. I cant even adjust it under linux. I loose like 4 letters to the left on the console. :(22:10

VSpikegravemind: have you tried just typing in your own password?22:19
jribDominik: for the desktop user you'll just have to used the icedtea plugin for java instead of sun's because they don't have one out22:19
Dominikjrib: so all my programs will work fine? even MS Word emulated through wine?22:20
jribGT: you can probably use strace if you are desperate.  Or 'dpkg -L whatever_package_sum_is_in | grep /etc'22:20
vpereirais it normal ? i installed my drivers using ndiswrapper, i modprobed, its reconized and the hardware is present.. why i cannot do a ifconfig in my wlan0 ?22:20

jribDominik: I use wine fine, same as in 32bit22:20
