[00:00] Stargazer, is the partition mounted in places? [00:00] Phantomime_: no need for uninstalling. just use the cd of your next operating system and format (a.k.a. delete) the partition ubuntu is installed on. [00:00] Anyone know what that error might be? I can physically open my cd drive by pushing the button. [00:00] Schuenemann: yeah, i guess. [00:00] Schuenemann: I've replied to your forum topic [00:00] hi, building from a minimal install. what needs to be added where so I don't need root to shutdown/restart the comp.

[00:00] Phantomime_: that's right [00:01] How difficult is this for windows? [00:01] Phantomime_, what thos instructions are telling you to do is format the partition you install ubuntu on which isnt very wise from inside ubuntu [00:01] IntuitiveNipple, I'll get the notebook and try. brb [00:01] n wine [00:01] I see.. [00:02] the simplest way to uninstall ubuntu is to wipe the partition with the install disk you are trying to install over the top with [00:02] I am going to try and do it ith the winxp cd [00:02] with* [00:02] with an xp it's pretty easy. you get to a screen where you can select partitions and delete them with the "D" key. it's all described on the screen. i imagine it's even easier with vista, so there should be no trouble [00:02] how do i copy paste my old /home using a LiveCD ? [00:02] brb [00:02] Thanks Stroganoff! [00:02] Phantomime_, yes that will work the ubuntu partition will show up as unknown disk in xp cause its dumb [00:02] see you next time ;) [00:03] Mike_92: first things first. what printer is it?

[00:04] Is there a way to get gksu, and applications that use it like everything under the System-Administration menu, to not lock the screen? [00:04] Stargazer, if the partition is moutned, just copy/paste somewhere [00:04] can ubuntu do faxing like Windows 95 [00:05] Schuenemann: it's saying i don't have the permissions.

[01:39] I am using the 8.10 LiveCD and GParted, and I am stuck trying to reconcile the partition information GParted is providing about the new partitions [01:40] jero: I'm not sure if it is different in Ubuntu but when the drivers are aquired from ATI the command is: aticonfig --initial [01:40] morning all :) [01:40] titan oh yes, i think this was it, let me try [01:40] jero: then you will need to copy xorg.conf.new in root's homedir to /etc/X11/xorg.conf [01:40] jero: backup your current xorg first [01:40] My Add/Remove Programs dialog shows no programs at all, but apt seems to work fine from the command line. What can I do to fix this? [01:41] My Pidgin client just crashed :P [01:41] I'm getting 2,200 fps in glxgears with an nvidia geforce 7600gt. What should I be getting? Quake 3 feels much slower then it did on my windows partition... [01:41] And they say Linux is stable....... [01:41] TrentonH: Pidgin != Linux [01:41] Yeoj_ Maybe, it's your imaginiation.... [01:42] brunner, Pidgin is Linux. [01:42] * NoVARaif begins to think he's talking to himself? [01:42] no, its really not [01:42] TrentonH: err, no [01:42] isnt pidgin cross platform [01:42] Well it came on my Linux cd... [01:42] madmax__: yes, using GTK [01:42] madmax__: yes [01:42] TrentonH: so did Firefox, probably [01:42] can someone tell me how do I configure a ubuntu machine as a client to connect to a kerberos server? [01:42] TrentonH: it runs on macosx, windows, linux, etc etc [01:43] Yes....... it came /w Firefox but I already knew that. [01:43] My system slows down randomly -> high cpu load caused by somehing.. [01:43] garu: google kerberos client ubuntu [01:43] TrentonH: well Firefox isn't Linux, either. [01:43] MaT-dg Did you open your Linux Process Manager or whatever it is called and view what is doing what? === rachel is now known as Guest91534 [01:44] TrentonH, maybe, but showfps shows that its actually quantifiable. Thanks for your sarcastic help though. [01:44] brunner, But FireFox is KEWLL regardless if it's Linux or not.... === NoVARaif is now known as NoVA-Smokin === NoVA-Smokin is now known as NoVA-Smoking [01:44] yeoj_, Anytime :D Just saying ya know maybe it's all in your head.... [01:44] im trying to get my console terminals to use another default font and i made changes to /etc/default/console-setup and it looked like at initial startup it changed, but after everything loaded it reverted back to the original ubuntu font. any ideas what would cause this to happen? [01:44] TrentonH: I use it, but it'd be "KEWLL"er if it didn't take up so much RAM [01:45] TrentonH: I fear there is far more in yeoj__'s head than yours :o [01:45] brunner, get more ram ^.^ [01:45] Also if it didn't have legacy code dating back to before Netscape Navigator [01:45] ghost_of_DNSsec: you mean like IE ? [01:45] anyone using ubuntu 9.04 already? [01:46] jero i am using 9.04 [01:46] linuxman - any new features worth noting? [01:46] linexh: lol, much like that. But because you can see inside the code, [01:46] !jaunty [01:46] Jaunty Jackalope is the code for Ubuntu 9.04, due April 2009 - Lots of breakage between now and April - Please join #ubuntu+1 for discussion and support. [01:46] you notice the horrible legacy problems [01:47] ghost_of_DNSsec: if you pay enough you can see inside the IE code too :-) [01:47] What is an extremely small window manager i can use for a resource costly application? [01:47] lol, that'd be nice, but I don't have the money [01:47] jero all of my stuff that would not run on 8.10 runs on 9.04 [01:47] :) [01:47] I'm new to ubuntu and the website told me to come here for general help is anyone willing to help me? [01:47] Harigh: if you tell us what the problem is yes :p [01:47] Erm, I have a slight problem..... just a small one nothing to big.. [01:48] Harigh: whats the problem? [01:48] linuxman nice, maybe i ll just screw this attempt with the ati driver on 8.10 and go straight for 9.04 [01:48] I have like 50+ connections open on my PC....... [01:48] cant get the acceleration to work anyway [01:48] ok well you see my distro will boot all the way to the desktop and then stop the system icon doesnt show up and i cant do anything on it? does anyone know what i can do to fix it [01:48] jero: I'd be careful going to 9.04 [01:48] it hasn't been released for a reason [01:48] guess that will teach me to not mess with any ati drivers unless there is a package on synaptic [01:49] i know i could get it to run, but it will be again a google orgy [01:49] anyone know of some X software that can record and playback keystrokes and mouse motions/presses either with or without timing [and repeat with or without delay] ? [01:49] how do i get the current time zone my ubuntu machine is set up on?how do i remove user foo? [01:49] how do i remove user foo? [01:49] jero it already had my ati driver i am using radeon 9200se [01:49] I installed blackbox window manager into my computer, and i see half a desktop when i open it, like its working with 2 monitors, but i only have one. is there a configuration for this? [01:49] linux 8.10 had it too, i just wanted the newest [01:49] TrentonH: yes, it seems that pulseaudio and java are using the most cpu load [01:49] i ve done it before but my memory is short. and i dont want to read all over again [01:49] jero my 3d effects work great [01:50] When i remote into my box the first time, it works fine. when i logout from the menu, all the icons and menu disappear and only the wallpaper remains. Even if i disconnect and connect again, i get the same thing. i need to restart to get it going again. What am i doing wrong? [01:50] MaT-dg is the Java jqs named? I know it is on WinXP [01:50] Harigh: system icon? [01:50] linuxman they do, except i found that ubuntu 8.10 has my gfx card fan spinning constantly when the 3d acceleration is enabled. [01:50] linuxman without, my laptop is absolutely silent [01:50] the icon that says system and allows me to easily access the stuff connected to my computer i know its there because i ran it in vmware [01:51] jero: My PC sounds like an Apache helicopter because of the hardware I have in it. LOL [01:51] TrentonH: what do u mean by that? [01:51] ahh the one that lets you access the filesystems [01:51] jero i have desktop and you can not even hear fan [01:51] yes that one [01:51] trenton - easily fixed. drill a hole in the wall and get usb cables through it, and work on the other side of the wall [01:51] MaT-dg: What is the name of the Java program thats running in process? [01:52] are you using kde or gnome Harigh? [01:52] kde [01:52] hello [01:52] i assume that anyway [01:52] Is there anyone who can help me with my display issues? [01:52] i just picked run without changes from the main menu [01:52] I'm repeatedly getting the error "[ ######] Buffer I/O error on device fd0, logical block 0" when i try to boot ubuntu live cd. I know it works on other PCs, I burnt it slow, and other linux live cd's don't work. [01:53] jero: It's not an issue to me, it was expected when I built gaming machine. I have an Air Cooled system and 3 vid cards and they constantly run and noisy. [01:53] does the lower left icon of the desktop have a K in a gear on it? [01:53] TrentonH, what games are you planning to run? [01:53] And have you made sure their developers support Linux? [01:53] Because there are many things Linux is excellent for, but so far the gaming community's been a little behind other sectors if I remember correctly [01:54] aazizorg: isn't fd0 the floppy? [01:54] jero i used old hardware a p4 1.8 and a gig of ram and ati radeon 9200se [01:54] run dmesg and pastebin it and post the link here [01:54] how can I download Adobe Flash for ubuntu gutsy? [01:54] ghost_of_DNSsec I have 4 hd's 2 are saved for my Windows games, I got them in Raid 0 and Crysis, Stalker, WoW, [01:54] !pastebin [01:54] 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) [01:54] aitd, i've been told this in #archlinux, im going to try to disable floppy (i dont have one anyways) [01:54] TrentonH: Oh, okay, you sound like you've got it [01:54] youll need to run dmesg in a terminal [01:54] no the icon doesnt have the konqueror icon in it [01:55] TrentonH: Azureus [01:55] was the desktop browns beiges and the like when you initially started it up? [01:55] ghost_of_DNSsec: I play WoW mostly, so it doesn't bother me. I just know i'm going to lagg mad becuase Linux doesn't support dialup. [01:55] yes it was [01:56] okay youre running ubuntu with gnome as the desktop [01:56] :) [01:56] do i need to run in it a different mode? [01:56] I'm having problems with my wireless card [01:56] oh ok [01:56] TrentonH: ah [01:56] I have 8.10 and lspci says the card is Intersil Corporation Prism 2.5 Wavelan chipset [01:56] ghost_of_DNSsec: Do you know if their is any 56k support for Ubuntu? [01:56] in gnome the main menu up top has a item called places that will allow you to access all of the filesystems that your system knows about. [01:57] aitd, yeah that was it. had to disable floppy in bios. weird though [01:57] ya but i cant open the applications menu the places menu or the system menu at the top [01:57] aazizorg: That was going to be my next suggestion. [01:57] its like the only thing that works is the mouse [01:57] if you need to get on a windows share the network option will get you there. [01:57] I'm getting 503 5.5.1 "Authentication not enabled" when my rails app tries to send an email, what could be causing that?

[02:06] lakotajames, read the links in #bash motd, theyre extraordinarily helpful [02:06] I just dont know what to do, I was googling it and they say it is supported by defoult but it doesnt work [02:06] damien: what problems are you having? [02:06] I am running on a usb drive 'live session' is there a way to expand the persistent storage file? [02:07] Titan8990, I can't seem to get the maximum resolution displayed [02:07] things were working okay on my old 20" [02:07] herrkin, which card, what problem? [02:07] damien: did you install your ati drivers via jockey-gtk or manually from the ati website? [02:07] well intel x3100, compiz doesnt work [02:08] Titan8990, both, current is latest from ati [02:08] I dont know what to do. I am new to linux [02:08] what did you try? [02:09] I have ati on mi pc and it worked when I used envy [02:09] but in this case I dont know what to do [02:09] damien: make a backup of your xorg.conf and manually add the resolution you want. You can change an existing resolution, or you can add another [02:09] Titan8990, how do I add the resolution? [02:09] damien: just make sure you back up the orginal [02:09] windows rules [02:09] I just installed the ati video driver and it's still the same. [02:09] to Screen? Monitor? Device? PairMode? Mode? [02:09] Mode2? [02:09] Titan8990, so many options!

I am using ubuntu 8.10 and I have problems with open office. The menus do not display correctly. Does anyone else know how to solve this issue?

[02:12] Prometheus1981: yes [02:12] Prometheus1981, yes I am on one now [02:12] eh! what's the # coloumn in crontab?! [02:12] hi everybody...

I was trying to find this letter http://www.colegioeuropamalaga.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/10/letra-gotica-inglesa.gif can someone give me a hand? [02:13] I have installed it several times and when I try to boot, it keeps telling me that it's corrupt [02:13] Good Afternoon, I was wondering if someone could help me with a very annoying glitch with Compiz in 8.10. For some reason when I click on a window I can move it but it will not gain focus unless I ALT-TAB into it. I can work around this by setting windows to focus by moving my mouse over them but this just adds another aggivation and I'd like it to keep the normal behavior. [02:13] Mean_Admin: read 'man 5 crontab'. The # just comments the first line so it gives you column headings and cron ignores that line [02:13] anyone notice jaunty hardware drivers manager is now accepting nvidia...not going to trash my system is it ? [02:13] jrib: i'm so stupid! you're right [02:14] what's the cube effect called? I want to look into getting that installed [02:14] I've also searched GOOGLE without much luck.

[02:16] Prometheus1981: try writing zeros to the whole drive then using the make usb startup disk option in ubuntu [02:16] I'll check [02:16] Yes, I used ubuntu 8.10 live cd [02:17] i found the usb startup thing in 8.10 to suck. i used unetbootin [02:17] 0 4 * * 1,3,5 /home/pompei/backupscript [02:17] I have tried several times and it says that it was complete succesfully, but when I reboot it says that it's bad [02:17] does that look okay as a crontab? === jrgp is now known as `jrgp [02:18] Prometheus1981, what is the errror?

[02:18] jrib: all right thanks [02:18] Prometheus1981, some sticks just won't boot, I had 2 of 3 of mine boot, 1 just won't [02:18] Oh ok [02:18] oh my.... [02:18] how do i get an exe file to open so that i can burn an iso out of it [02:19] letalis: did you check if 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure console-setup' has the same behavior? [02:19] Prometheus1981, is it a newer stick your trying with? [02:19] Prometheus1981: ive noticed when using a 1gb stick that if you save files to the stick and fill it completely things start having errors [02:19] herrkin, try sudo apt-get install xserver-xgl [02:19] Sort of [02:19] jrib: let me try it out [02:19] yo-chen, ok [02:19] I got it at a seminar 6mo ago [02:19] i have edited my .profile to add a directory to my $PATH, how can i reload the .profile without rebooting? [02:19] Prometheus1981, you might try reformating it - that brought one of mine around.

I've installed bzr to download an application coded in python. How do I compile it from the console? [02:20] i spent several hours on this a few days ago [02:20] I'm thinking about setting up Ubuntu as dual boot on my currently Mac OS X-only MacBook [02:20] [1]Jocke: you don't compile python [02:20] jrib, ty [02:20] [1]Jocke: python is not compiled [02:20] [1]Jocke: you should join #python [02:20] hey guys, is there a way i can save settings on ubuntu, like every time i get on it, i have to reload flash player and things like that, is there a way iwont have to do that every time i log on? [02:21] Does anyone know of a VM solution taht would let me boot my Mac OS X installation from within Ubuntu, on my MacBook?

[02:22] !dialup > TrentonH [02:22] TrentonH, please see my private message [02:22] well i want to make Ubuntu the main OS of my computer but im having issues with that if youre intrested in helping me [02:22] how do i get an exe file to open so that i can burn an iso out of it [02:23] marine: 1) your question doesn't really make sense and 2) please don't repeat so quickly [02:23] GeffIsLegend: Perhaps you should start with what the problems are. [02:23] exe? [02:23] marine: you can use WINE but only certain apps are supported [02:23] linux_guy, I installed mine, but I realized the amount I allowed was a bit small [02:23] marine, an exe is a window executable file; it's not something you 'unpack' [02:23] We don't really need an introduction. [02:23] !wine | marine [02:23] marine: WINE is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux - More information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine - Search the !AppDB for application compatibility ratings - Join #winehq for application help [02:23] eternal, what did you use to create yours [02:23] GeffIsLegend: do you have a flash drive [02:23] ? [02:23] marine, if it's a self-extracting archive, you might try 7zip [02:24] well when i go to "install" from the cd i get to step 4 of 7 and partition part, and it wont let me select any partitions to use [02:24] is kde4.2 in the ibex repos or should I install from the same repo as the beta build? [02:24] nickrud, so how do i get it to open [02:24] and no i dont have a flash drive :[ [02:24] marine, I totally missed the idea that it might be a self extracting archive; eternal has a good idea [02:24] has anyone used DVD2HDD? [02:24] jrib: thanks man i think that got it [02:24] eternal, is that in the repoz [02:25] Linux_guy I am looking I believe it's cd2usb it's the windows util to do it. [02:25] marine: I believe so. [02:25] eternal, i tried to use archive manager and it didn't work [02:25] well when i go to "install" from the cd i get to step 4 of 7 and partition part, and it wont let me select any partitions to use-should i create a partition table in the gparted? [02:25] marine: what is it exactly? [02:25] GeffIsLegend: what is currently installed on your hard drive [02:25] windows vista [02:26] i got 'could not launch menu item' -- failed to execute child process /usr/bin/DVD2HDD - no such file or directory...??? [02:26] Titan8990, it's a dos/windows bootdisk [02:26] GeffIsLegend: there is nothing wrong with that option but it is recommended that you backup your system prior to messing with partitions [02:26] Does anyone have any idea why I can't click on a window and have it focus when Compiz is enabled?

Using the 64 bit version, is there a performance improvement? Is true that the 64bit version uses more RAM memory? If so, in average how much? [04:14] 64-bit will use more RAM, but it also increases the max capacity of RAM you can have in the computer [04:14] madmaX:- which browser would u recommedn [04:14] hello [04:14] try opera [04:14] ScottG489: according to several comments at http://www.techrecipes.net/linux/google-gears-in-64-bit-linux.html despite the error message you first reported, it does seem to work ... confusing indeed :) [04:14] just to see if it still freezes [04:14] opera doesn't run on my computer. :( [04:14] this isnt too important but i would like to install firefox 3.0.5 on a kubuntu 6.06 machine [04:14] Ive been getting a lot of .tar files, and I never know how to install them =) can someone help me [04:14] and i dont like opera [04:14] its not open source :( [04:14] so i've got the movie player that came with my ubuntu 8.10 and it plays everything i need it to but, is there a better one?

[04:28] ninom: what do you need a "safe mode" for? i.e., what do you expect to get out of it? [04:28] Since it uses commercial software. [04:28] ninom: don't sign in automatically, then when you start your computer you will get your login screen. [04:28] ah cool. thanks kinja-sheep [04:28] But it's RHEL-base [04:29] nilson: I hope not, not alot of bragging rights there... 160 boxes, not a one worth over 50 bucks [04:29] linux_guy, if you do "file filename.bin" what does it say?

[04:31] why have security holes [04:31] racecar56: it's available in ubuntu 8.04 and up [04:31] -.- [04:31] racecar56: what version of ubuntu do you run? intrepid has 3.0.5 by default... [04:31] kinja-sheep: i could ofcourse create a launcher with the shutdown command. that would work for shutting down. [04:31] 6.06.1 [04:31] bye [04:31] dragon should i try doing it with my live cd [04:31] and if yes how [04:31] racecar56: ah... then you are pretty much SOL. [04:31] its a virtual machine [04:31] ninom: it depends on how much effort you want to get it fixed. the fix will be simple but will be some command line stuff [04:31] sandwich: your browser(s) will need to be allowed to connect to polipo, and that implies allowing localhost to connect to it .. have you read man polipo ? [04:31] Lucifer_Cat: Perhaps a launcher for terminal. [04:32] pepperjack i am patient as long as i can fix it [04:32] i ll try for hours [04:32] racecar56: you could look at this ubuntuforums thread, and possibly get it working: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=847484 [04:32] racecar56: plus I think the desktop version of ubuntu 6.06 won't be officialy supported after this June [04:32] hey - i jsut need to know the command to tar a folder into a tarball so i can send it to someone [04:32] racecar56: but your best bet is to just stick with the latest patches for firefox2. [04:32] yeah [04:32] i want ubuntu to work. i dont wanna buy a different monitor that supports 75hz [04:32] hlfshell: "tar" [04:32] just tar by itself? [04:32] !paste [04:32] 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) [04:32] well i already disconnected. i'll try that next time. didnt blink at that time. *headdesks* [04:32] hlfshell: tar, tar.bz2, or tar.gz? [04:32] drash i dont have time for that [04:32] tar [04:32] or tar.gz [04:32] either or [04:33] binarymutant, http://paste.ubuntu.com/113055/ [04:33] hlfshell: just "tar". read "man tar" for usage instructions on tar. [04:33] Is there an IRC channel with hardware help? [04:33] hlfshell: tar czf file.tar.gz directory [04:33] thats what ive been doing, but when i tar cvf folder tardest it complains about fodler being a folder [04:33] hlfshell: if you want to make a tar.gz, you probably want something like "tar -czf targetfolder" [04:33] Droopsta915: ##hardware [04:33] thannkkks [04:33] tar zxvf file to extrct to a folder [04:33] hlfshell: you're forgetting the output filename [04:33] for gz [04:34] linux_guy, "./dvdtohdd-0.3.0.x86.package" [04:34] not extract- compress [04:34] sandwich: do you have time to pastebin your polipo conf file ? [04:34] yes [04:34] binarymutant, do i need to be in the desktop directory? [04:34] hey, just checking what my username is [04:34] drash holdon [04:34] ugh... [04:34] lol bamhm1821 [04:34] bamnm1821 [04:34] linux_guy, yes [04:34] hlfshell: man tar. it gives you an example right in the beginning. "tar -czf archivename.tar.gz foldername" [04:34] oqned [04:34] sandwich: ok, holding [04:35] thanks [04:35] that worked thanks guys! [04:35] :( [04:35] linux_guy, if it says that expecting fi error again than your file is a dud [04:35] hlfshell: no prob. remember, "man" is your friend. [04:35] what is so special with ubuntu studio? [04:35] can anyone type what i need to do in order to change my apperance settings from 75 hz to60hz before ubuntu loads [04:35] how do get a transparent konsole under kde 4? [04:36] binarymutant, its asking for a password for autopackage [04:36] ryanCH: try #kubuntu [04:36] drash: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/113057/ [04:36] If i delete a file (say, from my desktop) when i open the trash the 'empty trash' button is greyed out, but i can still highlight the item and press delete key and delete that way. What's going on? [04:36] Shovon: it has a few professional video and audio editing apps pre-installed [04:36] linux_guy, I don't know anything about your file specifically, it might be passworded [04:36] binarymutant, that would suck [04:36] sandwich: taking a look, i'll report back [04:36] ninom: /after/ ubuntu loads, can you press "ctl-alt-f2", does that switch you to a text-only console? [04:37] linux_guy, if it's installing something then it needs to be ran as sudo [04:37] Well couldn't I install them manually? Are there any other difference? [04:37] !paste [04:37] 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) [04:37] testing my user name again [04:37] Non-free packages included in Ubuntu Studio [04:37] there we go [04:37] Not possible to include in normal Ubuntu [04:37] is there anything by default mounted to /dev/loop0? or is that just an open loop device? [04:37] binarymutant, http://paste.ubuntu.com/113058/ [04:38] therealnanotube i will try that right now. [04:38] what was the command again to configure my networking settings from with like nano [04:38] linux_guy, I don't know anything about that specific file but it looks like it downloaded autopackage.tar.bz2 [04:39] binarymutant, what do i do about this password lol? [04:39] ninom: ok, let me know what happens. [04:39] sandwich: try uncommenting line 17 of that file and "sudo /etc/init.d/polipo restart" to check if that changes anything [04:39] linux_guy, try "sudo ./dvdtohdd-0.3.0.x86.package" [04:40] binarymutant, i clicked no pw and it waited, then installed =) [04:40] that works too [04:40] does anyone know if i can get a newer xchat repo or deb for 8.0.4 [04:40] nm got it [04:41] oobe, what's the version in Jaunty? that will be easy to get if it doesn't require any dependencies [04:41] jaunty is alpha [04:41] i wouldnt be asking if intrepid worked in hardy [04:41] binarymutant, this software requires gambas to run, can you help me find / install that? its not in my synaptic [04:41] i dont see why jaunty would [04:41] only gambas2 [04:42] drash: do you mean: # proxyName = "polipo.example.org" [04:42] oobe, actually the Jaunty idea is bad, it requires a bunch of dependencies that are probably only found in Jaunty. You can compile xchat yourself if you feel comfortable in the command line [04:42] that's the 17th line [04:42] Does 8.10-server recover mode have not have fsck.xfs or am I freaking crazy?! [04:43] linux_guy, I don't know what gambas is, but will it work with gambas2? [04:43] sandwich: no, i mean the proxyaddress line for IPv4 [04:43] binarymutant, it will not work with gambas2 [04:43] binarymutant, i know and i know but thanks anyway [04:44] guess i will compile later [04:44] i'm trying to compile approx from source, because i want my aprox server on a box that has no ubuntu/debian on it. i grabbed 3.3.0 (the rev listed for intrepid). it seems to have deps on a contructor that i believe i have satisfied, but the source says i haven't. any help? [04:44] therealnanotube i va connected my desktop to my LCD screen and now there is no error like on my monitor. i am gonna change the settings now. thanks for listening to me and trying to help i areally appreciate it. thanks a lot. [04:44] anyone try amarok 2 in intrepid.... but not using kubuntu? [04:45] is firefox 1.5.0.15 ubuntu's version of firefox that fixed security vulnerabilities from 1.5.0.12? [04:45] subpar: worked fine for me pre-kde [04:45] tyler_d, pre-kde? [04:45] racecar56: I gave you the link man [04:45] did you switch over or something [04:45] subpar: I just switched last week [04:45] :) [04:45] http://img8.imageshack.us/my.php?image=nitrosuperpv7.png [04:46] how long were you using gnome? [04:46] madmax_Opera is much better in performance as of now.. [04:46] I tried out kde on fedora 9 for a few days but then school started... [04:46] how did you install it using gnome? just download the deb and let ubuntu do the rest? [04:46] linux_guy, I think gambas2 will work you should install it and see [04:47] subpar: I have both installed, I like kde and my wife is still on gnome [04:47] binarymutant, it is installeed [04:47] ninom: ok, good luck, glad you figured it out :) [04:47] Wolv3, that is a distraction [04:47] linux_guy, try installing gambas2-dev [04:47] linux_guy, but is a good 1 [04:48] hi all.. I have a small problem I could really use a hand with. [04:48] !ask [04:48] 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. :-) [04:48] binarymutant, that is already installed [04:48] lies [04:48] I have joker who keeps pounding on my ftp.. [04:48] and making my log files HUGE... [04:49] at [04:49] 111 mb [04:49] of text file. [04:49] OldToker: install a firewall and exclude him. as well turn off your ssh via root [04:49] I need to know how I can block him [04:49] OldToker: iptables drop rule??:) [04:49] drash: didnt work [04:49] linux_guy, no clue then sorry, you could use this but it requires all these dependencies http://packages.ubuntu.com/gutsy/gambas [04:49] ok thanks :) [04:49] I'll give it a shot [04:49] Hey I know this is Gimp related, but the gimp chat is slow tonight and my question is simple: How do you resize a selection in GIMP? like I can resize the WHOLE IMAGE, but I just want to resize one little graphic, and normally I would just drag the corners but you can't do this in GIMP? [04:50] hi, i need some help with ubuntu 8.10 and ktorrent. somebody who can help me? [04:50] OldToker: "man iptables" for details and examples :) [04:50] TeamColtra[TFD], I copy paste the selection to a new canvas then scale [04:50] gulash: what's your question? i have ktorrent and intrepid, they both work fine. [04:50] TeamColtra[TFD], you can.. what version of ubuntu are you on? intrepid has the boxes that appear in the corners to change the size. [04:51] sandwich: let's take it from the top .. is polipo running at all ? did you configure your browser(s) to use a proxy (and if so, what address and port combo is set ? [04:51] therealnanotube, thanks I will look it up :) [04:52] yes, yes and 127.0.0.1:9050 [04:52] ok. i have ktorrent on an intrepid ubuntu 32 bits. it happens that sometimes, after some time working, it just closes itself (im speaking about ktorrent) and if i check the log in /home/user/.kde/share/apps/ktorrent/log, it doesnt says nothing relevant [04:52] I'm making a batch script to automate the correct post install setup process. Is there any way to stop apt-get from displaying promts to the user? I would rather the script just ran and the used wasn't involved . [04:52] TeamColtra[TFD], wait.. you've put a box around a part of the image and you want to enlarge/shrink that selection inside of the main image? [04:53] gulash: thats similair to a few clients with java... try updatign your jvm [04:53] gulash: hrm, well... that's rather hard to troubleshoot, with no error messages and stuff. all i can say is that it doesn't happen to me... try clearing out your config for ktorrent, maybe... [04:53] tyler_d: ktorrent doesn't use java [04:53] where can i see the different irc commands for this channel? [04:53] Cotowar, /help probably [04:54] therealnanotube: my bad [04:54] oh, good call [04:54] Cotowar, or if your talking about the bot then /msg ubottu !help [04:54] How do I find out from the command line what monitors are attached? [04:54] khmer42, there's --assume-yes and --force-yes (dangerous) [04:54] tyler_d: you're probably thinking azureus :) [04:54] therealnanotube: was so ;) [04:54] nickrud: thanks! [04:54] i tried clearing the config. didnt help. it can work 5 minutes and close itself as it can work 48 hours with no problem. [04:54] hi, how to open to seperate windows of Gedit ?? [04:54] any idea where i can find another log which could give me more info? [04:54] Does ubuntu use rc.local? [04:55] If i delete a file (say, from my desktop) when i open the trash the 'empty trash' button is greyed out, but i can still highlight the item and press delete key and delete that way. What's going on? [04:55] gulash: hrm... well no, not really... i suppose you could install the debug symbol packages, and try running it with gdb to see what happens when it crashes. [04:55] hello [04:55] How do I find out from the command line what monitors are attached? [04:56] i'm trying to compile approx from source, because i want my aprox server on a box that has no ubuntu/debian on it. i grabbed 3.3.0 (the rev listed for intrepid). it seems to have deps on a contructor that i believe i have satisfied, but the source says i haven't. any help? [04:56] hi, how to open two seperate instances (windows) of gedit ?? [04:56] quentusrex, try xrandr [04:56] drash are you on any messengers? [04:56] sandwich: that seems to be the socks proxy port, did you try the regular polipo port 8123 yet ? [04:56] kc8pxy: whats missing? [04:56] how do i do that? i installed the ktorrent-dbg. how do i use it? [04:56] user2, I don't think it's possible [04:56] quentusrex: run "xrandr" [04:56] tyler_d: Unbound type constructor Nethttpd_types.http_service [04:56] user2, it always opens a new tab [04:57] kc8pxy: try #ubuntu-server channel [04:57] binarymutant: wow, I'd call that a bug almost.. [04:57] user2, file open from within gediit will get you a tabed window.. or application/accessories/text editor. [04:57] user2, my bad, it's "gedit --new-window" [04:57] binarymutant: ahh,, thanks! [04:57] kc8pxy: that sounds like a specific error.. not a dependency missing :s [04:57] That doesn't display anythign about the model.... the nvidia drivers were able to display the model of the monitor... [04:57] drash, for what? http? https? socks? or all of the above? [04:57] sandwich: i'm actually having to leave to get to work in a few minutes sorry, best bet would be to read the man page i guess [04:57] Hi. I'd like to install xubuntu into my current ubuntu installation, which has had the crap tweaked out of it. A quick "sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop" into Tilda wants to remove Splashy and Wicd. Is there any way for me to avoid this? [04:57] sandwich: try http and https first [04:58] what about socks [04:58] sandwich: do you need socks ? [04:58] yes [04:58] user2: you can use "gedit --new-window" [04:58] TiZ, I think you can just install xfce4 as the manager and then add the bits that you want after that. [04:58] gulash: hold on let me find that tutorial... [04:58] ok. thanks. [04:59] what do people use to mount ISO files? fuseiso? or nautilus scripts? or just the out-of-the-box mount command? [04:59] sandwich: ok, in that case set http, https and socks port to 9050 [04:59] gulash: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Backtrace [04:59] izinucs: Oh, so you can just add individual parts? That's good. :D [04:59] Mood: mount works... [04:59] thatts swhat i did and it didn't work [04:59] Does anyone have any ideas as to why 'ls' keeps hanging on my laptop (w/ intrepid)? [05:00] Mood I use --AcetoneIso2 I got from getdeb [05:00] Hello guys [05:00] therealnanotube: ok, thanks. so ppl use all these other tools just to make it easier? [05:00] tyler_d: it's stock source from launchpad. it should compile clean or tell me what's broken. got ideas? [05:00] Tiz [05:00] quick help question, i am installing mint on a secondary physical drive. [05:00] Yes, dragon`? [05:00] I would recommend doing exclude remove [05:00] redvamp128: how come you don't just use mount? is there an added advantage to acetone? [05:01] Hello, my sound in firefox is not working but it works everywhere else. Any ideas what could be causing this? [05:01] Mood this is what I use and you don't have to pay-- Application Information - AcetoneISO [05:01] My djembe has the exact same pitch as the ubuntu startup djembe [05:01] I have installed the stock bugzilla on my the latest Ubuntu [05:01] kc8pxy: there was a package change which happened in 2.2.3-1 where ocamlnet is relocated [05:01] Exclude remove? [05:01] It comes up without CSS :( [05:01] Mood: yea, pretty much. [05:01] should i install the boot loader to hd0, dev/sdb, or dev/sdb1? [05:01] kc8pxy: possibly try installing an earlier version [05:01] So the bugzilla page renders *ugly* [05:01] --no--remove option to apt-get [05:01] can someone help me through installing bugzilla [05:01] My buddy has a sound studio, I could come up with some sick sound effects if someone wants... [05:01] i tried dev/sdb earlier, and i got an error that it couldn't load the partition [05:01] Tells it to not remove some packages [05:02] Mood: I like it because it also allows the drag and drop of an Iso and still retains boot info-- also the strip boot too [05:02] I'll take a look at what happens if I do that [05:02] redvamp128: cool. that may come in handy [05:02] wait [05:02] Mood: makes it practial for slipstreaming a service pack [05:02] do man apt-get [05:02] lots of info [05:02] Ah, it just errors out. [05:02] --no-remove [05:02] oops [05:03] Mood: unlike for example the mount iso-- where when you goto burn it -- looses the boot of disk [05:03] tyler_d: not possible without some serious distro hacking, only rev of ocamlnet that my distro has is 2.2.9 [05:03] I typed it right. It just errors out because it wants to remove packages, but it can't. [05:03] test [05:03] oh [05:03] xubuntu-desktop depends on network-manager, but it can't install that because it conflicts with wicd. It can't remove wicd, so no go [05:03] :( [05:03] tyler_d: should i use a newer approx source tarball? [05:03] redvamp128: good point [05:04] Thanks, though. I'll pick and choose the packages I want. :) [05:04] kc8pxy: thats extremely preliminary research on my part, I would suggest either more stable or more bleeding edge [05:04] long and boring [05:04] :D [05:04] kc8pxy: contact the programmer/support forum even as they don't have alot on a workaround... [05:04] Yeah, I know. I'll stick it out. :) [05:04] Mood: also I like it for example the easy way to check a MD5 [05:05] hi where does epiphany keep temp files? [05:05] anybody able to help answer a boot loader install question? [05:05] Heh Ok [05:05] is there a plugin for alsa that will software synth midi? [05:06] therealnanotube: are you still ther? [05:06] rullie, probably someplace in ~/.epiphany [05:06] gulash: no :) [05:06] izinucs: nope.. [05:06] just wondering if anyone has used CAcert.org ? [05:06] and installed into a ubuntu sever [05:06] rullie: /tmp/epiphany maybe? [05:06] ardchoille: no... [05:07] ok. i did what the dbg said. [05:07] Ok, so 'ls' is for some reasong hanging if I try to use it from my home dir, and lsof is always hanging... Any ideas? [05:07] it returned "Program exited normally." and the program is still running [05:07] any idea? [05:07] <[chr0n0s]> gotta love ubuntu documentation, was going to ask a question here, but a simple google search solved it :) [05:08] [chr0n0s]: letmegooglethatforyou.com [05:08] Tiz [05:08] :/ [05:09] I need help recovering a failed disk in a RAID 5. Does anyone know how to do this? [05:10] no [05:10] BobAlmighty: hardware or software [05:10] software [05:10] Yes, dragon`? [05:10] BobAlmighty: replace the failed drive and boot away [05:10] I don't have a replacement drive. [05:11] I don't think the drive is bad. [05:11] BobAlmighty: then how did it break? [05:11] It got out of sync, at some point, I'm not sure how. [05:11] I've run disk scans, and it appears fine. [05:12] what happens when you try and assemble the array? [05:12] BobAlmighty: so why do you think its broken? [05:12] It says "assembling with 4 of 5" disks [05:12] hmm [05:12] Because it's one of those 1.5GB Seagates that has the timeout issue. [05:12] So it got out of sync and was marked faulty [05:12] id remove the disk from the array, format it, then add it back into the array and let it rebuild [05:13] Best way? [05:13] dont know, im by no means an expert [05:13] Well, I'll give that a try. [05:13] how can i detect what video card i have in my machine? i'm getting the low graphical mode error [05:13] Hey, I just got a new computer and installed Vista, XP, then Ubuntu in that order. After installing Ubuntu, I can only see Ubuntu. Does anyone have any help on getting Grub to recognize the Windows installs? [05:14] lwizardl, check the output of lspci [05:14] i seem to be having trouble getting ubuntu to update the initrd for the 2.6.27-3rt kernel using dpkg-reconfigure console-setup the fonts are the default VGA ones on it but when i attempted to update the console-setup with dpkg-reconfigure it updated my generic kernel and not the rt one. any suggestions? [05:14] Did you overwrite your windows installing when you installed Ubuntu? [05:14] BobAlmighty, No, all are on different partitions [05:14] gulash: well, did ktorrent actually crash while you were running it with gdb? [05:15] * Light- finds it odd that ubuntu didnt pick up winfail when it generated the grub menu.lst [05:15] no. it only said it exited normally, and i had the program still running, and when it actually crashed, it didnt wrote anything [05:15] do you have any idea how to use the ktorrent-dbg package? [05:16] how can i figure out where something is installed on my computer? [05:16] from the command line [05:16] PowhatanBob, you could try "whereis programname" or "locate programname" [05:16] gulash: well, ktorrent-dbg basically installs debug symbols for ktorrent, so that when you run ktorrent with gdb, it will give you more information. [05:16] gulash: so... you already used it. [05:17] PowhatanBob, otherwise, "find / -name programname" [05:17] but apparently that didn't do much... [05:17] ouch... any idea how to tell de gdb to wait till the actual crash of the program? [05:17] #java [05:17] Light-, I set it up manually and I'm pretty sure it's my fault. I used the alternative install so I could do an encrypted LVM. I set /boot to a partition I had set aside for it, so it's not encrypted. [05:18] the complete output given is : [05:18] hmm, I havnt played with LVM or encrypted volumes sorry [05:18] [Thread debugging using libthread_db enabled] [05:19] [New Thread 0xb5e316c0 (LWP 26132)] [05:19] Program exited normally.

[05:20] gulash: not sure what's going on in ktorrent there... you might have better luck if you go to the #ktorrent channel (if it has any people in it, that is) [05:20] ok, ill go and check. thank you very much [05:21] millie and vanillie are my fathers [05:21] gulash: good luck :) === apc_ is now known as Peddyt === xyz is now known as symphony [05:22] i am very confused about sound systems in linux [05:22] why is that? [05:22] could someone please clarify some things for me [05:22] there are different sound systems, right? [05:23] Anyone have a "Dummies" guide to making your rsync work? D: [05:23] a|3x: yes [05:23] you can only use one sound system at once, right? [05:23] a|3x: I think multiple ones can be used [05:23] vascript [05:23] because /dev/dsp will be grabbed [05:23] Wanderer, if it's a simple "one machine to another" type thing take a look at the gui for rsync.. in the repos called grsync [05:24] a|3x: I don't think /dev/dsp is the only sound device [05:24] hm [05:24] lstarnes: cat /dev/urandom > /dev/dsp --- bash: /dev/dsp: Device or resource busy [05:25] WanderingYouth, sorry I answered and addressed it to Wanderer .. see a couple lines above [05:25] lstarnes: how can i write to /dev/dsp then when it is being used? [05:25] Fair enough. [05:25] i need help with lampp [05:25] I'll go see if that fixes my problem. Thanks :) [05:26] anyone? [05:26] a|3x: you will likely need to use a sound device other than /dev/dsp [05:26] deadbattery, you need to be more specific.. there is also #ubuntu-server [05:26] lstarnes: vmware has only that option [05:26] in apache i get [05:27] [notice] child pid 25527 exit signal Segmentation [05:27] lstarnes: vmware has the only option for sound /dev/dsp [05:27] gess what [05:27] and thne server hangs and stops responding [05:27] lstarnes: and its busy all the time [05:27] i got firefox 2.0.0.20 on dapper [05:27] xD [05:27] for apache i get [notice] child pid 25527 exit signal Segmentation [05:27] deadbattery, seg fault means that program broke [05:27] lstarnes: so i can't hear anything in vms [05:27] #ubuntu.it [05:28] so how do u fix it? it keeps happening =/ [05:28] a|3x: then close everything that is using sound or try using a different vm [05:28] deadbattery, you need to narrow it down to what program it was first off [05:28] and its annoying me.. [05:28] I am trying to remove 2 old kernel images that I no longer have a need for but the removal is failing. http://paste.ubuntu.com/112227/ Please Advise (PS: I have gfx grub installed) [05:28] lstarnes: what, i can't do that, i want to hear sound from all programs like in windows [05:28] i am using apache with lampp, what do u mean what program [05:28] deadbattery, are you still doing Plesk I guess? [05:28] come faccio ad andare in ubuntu.it?????? [05:28] no i am using apache atm [05:28] #plugin [05:29] deadbattery, it wasn't apache that broke it was something running in apache, could be your php code [05:29] gladio70, fato.. /join #ubuntu.it [05:29] i dun run a php code tho [05:29] i just host files [05:29] well how do i figure it out x.x [05:29] WIGGMPk -> i dont believe you can remove a kernel and its supporting files while you are booted to it [05:30] deadbattery, gedit /var/log/apache2/errors.log I think [05:30] a|3x: I'm able to do that using pulseaudio [05:30] kfyit: your prolly right.. however im not in those kernels im in 2.6.27-11 [05:30] binary i am alrdy there, thats how i got the [notice] child pid 25527 exit signal Segmentation [05:30] any plugin developers? [05:30] i need help [05:30] it just keeps poping child pid 32628.. bla bla [05:30] kavitha: plugins for what? [05:30] deadbattery, what are you using with apache? [05:31] lampp [05:31] lstarnes: so, would i need to uninstall arts, oss, and alsa and install pulse to make it work? [05:31] a|3x: no [05:31] deadbattery, could be a cgi could be php code could be your mysql [05:31] lstarnes: by the way, what are these different things, are they all seperate sound systems? [05:31] Does ubuntu use rc.local? [05:31] i am not running mysql [05:31] lstarnes: streaming video/audio and display in firefox browser [05:31] all i do is /opt/lampp/lampp startapache [05:31] deadbattery, LAMP = linux apache mysql php [05:31] which runs apache with php [05:32] how do i just run apache? and disable mysql, and php? [05:32] a|3x: I think pulse and many other sound daemons use kernel-level interfaces such as oss and alsa, but they are mostly separate [05:32] deadbattery, /etc/init.d/apache2 [05:32] audio:wav type [05:32] #ubuntu-it [05:32] lstarnes: so, which system is doing the mixing? [05:33] * linux_guy really REALLY hopes his gambas thread on the forum doesn't sit for weeks like some others [05:33] a|3x: I'm not sure [05:33] gladio70, como questo .... /join #ubuntu-it [05:33] k i just installed apache2, lets see if it gives the errro again [05:33] thanks binary [05:33] rashed2020, not really [05:33] lstarnes: streaming video/audio and display in firefox browser [05:33] i run a video streaming web site kavitha, what u need help with?

I was trying to look up the channel [05:34] my friend only has a command prompt show up when he boots from the livecd [05:34] rashed2020, instead of everything being rc.local Ubuntu uses scripts in rc0.d/ and stuff [05:34] any suggestions on what to check? [05:35] I started by telling him to do "xorg" and "start xorg" [05:35] sekyourbox, its good but extreme planet racer is better :P [05:35] sanjid, does "startx" produce an error? [05:35] sanjid, was it the ubuntu install cd or kubuntu or xubuntu? [05:35] can anyone here help me with a freenx problem im having? [05:35] izinucs: ubuntu [05:35] Light-: it says not found [05:35] deadbattery: i m streaming video/audio and display in firefox browser, do u know the process of audio streaming? [05:36] sanjid, are you using the alternate install cd? [05:36] sanjid, what about "/etc/init.d/gdm start" [05:36] Light-: trying that now [05:37] deadbattery: how to play audio in firefox browser? [05:37] i dun use ubuntu for desktop, its for a server [05:37] sooo, cant help u there [05:37] sanjid, you can try what Light- said.. startx .. also sudo /init.d/gdm start.. if neither of those work then sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop [05:37] I'm getting error 17: cannot mount partition. should i go back into the live cd? can i launch fdisk in the linuxmint livecd from the terminal and make the partition bootable? [05:37] oh, nevermind, he told me that he got it from pendrivelinix.com [05:38] *pendrivelinux [05:38] can someone lend me a hand? [05:38] sanjid, well then thats probably the problem, if it didnt come with an X server [05:38] yep [05:38] i have to hold a key while i boot my system else it won't boot =( [05:39] #mozilla [05:39] * sanjid facepalms my friend [05:39] kavitha, mozplugger and totem-mozilla === therealnanotube is now known as nanotube [05:39] FFForever, how does that work? [05:40] FFForever, is it a BIOS setting to boot to a seperate drive / partition? [05:40] anyone knows where apache2 saves its error logs? [05:40] binarydigit, it gets 2 the orange bar and inless i hold a key down it sits there... (i waited 5mins and it didn't move) when i hold the key the bar moves.... [05:40] deadbattery: /var/log/apache2/ [05:40] is it a hotkey for your OS to boot into a safe / compatability mode? [05:40] binarymutant: i have written a player but no idea about audio.. i cant play audio [05:41] deadbattery, nope i only have 3 partitions / swap /home [05:41] apache2, says denied [05:41] istarnes > apache2 folder said access denied [05:42] kavitha, you've coded a video player? Most of the time people will use whatever video player is on their system through plugins. Why not just add the audio to the video? [05:42] kavitha, use VIDEOLAN [05:42] www.vlc.com === Mottie_ is now known as MottieFa === MottieFa is now known as FaMott [05:42] kavitha, or if you just want to serve audio a lot of people use icecast [05:42] Whoops, I broke ubuntu [05:42] it forced a restart midupdate [05:42] deadbattery: are you in the adm group? [05:43] and... cataclysms happened after [05:43] adm grp? lol whats that bro [05:43] i am totally new to linux [05:43] icecast? how it works? i need to download from synaptic manager? [05:43] deadbattery: see if adm is listed in the output of the command groups [05:43] well i tried to acess apache2, but its denied [05:43] i can only use low graphics mode on ubuntu i have tried to install the drivers for my Gforce 8400GS and get nowhere ! (New to linux) [05:44] kavitha, it streams audio, a lot of internet radio stations use it. Yes it's in the repositories [05:44] ok having an issue on my hp dv6404ca laptop where i installed ubuntu and enabled my nvidia gforce go 6150 drivers i have an issue where the top bar on all windows gets grayed and disstorted here a link to a picture [05:44] does anyone know how to pull apache2's error log? [05:44] BlindCamel_, did you get the drivers from nvidia or are you trying to install them from System>Admin>Hardware drivers [05:44] http://i42.tinypic.com/2w74tg9.png [05:44] kavitha, but if you want video and audio just serve a video file that has the audio encoded to it [05:44] deadbattery: cat /var/log/apache2/error.log [05:45] thanks [05:45] is anyone familiar with maxclients, mixspare threads, in apache2.conf? [05:45] izinucs, both i tried the drivers in Hardware drivers, and dling them from Nvidia and installing them from terminal [05:45] binarymutant: hav written plugin code for video... similar code is needed for audio also right? [05:46] BlindCamel_, what happened with the ones in Hardware drivers? and were they the first you tried? [05:46] con someone take a look at this picture im having issues with the bar ontop off all apps http://i42.tinypic.com/2w74tg9.png [05:46] kavitha, I'm not sure we're talking about the same thing? You programmed a plugin for video? [05:46] izinucs, yes tried hardware drivers first it activates them but says they are not in use its recomending Ver. 180 [05:46] deadbattery, maxclients is how many people can connect to your apache at the same time [05:47] I have a program which opens a shell (inside bash?). It gives me a prompt (iPhone$), where I can enter commands, as part of a bash script I'm writing this shell needs to be opened, and certain commands need to be executed in it, is this possible? [05:47] sample from gecko plugins.. its my project.. [05:47] BlindCamel_, and were they an option to install in hardware drivers? [05:47] kavitha, what formats will it play? [05:47] mp4.. [05:47] yes they did install and then it asked me to restart so i did now it says active but not in use [05:47] i am still getting ] child pid 17202 exit signal Segmentation fault just ith apache2 [05:48] i have also tried envyNG [05:48] kavitha, just add the audio to the mp4 and you'll be set, your clients will hear it [05:48] should i come back later? is everone busy? [05:48] deadbattery: which version of apache are you using? [05:48] !patience [05:48] The people here are volunteers, your attitude should reflect that. Answers are not always available. See http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines [05:48] i cant figure why i get child pid 17202 exit signal Segmentation fault [05:48] iv taken a look everywhere [05:49] binarymutant: do i need to take sample from qt or some other player? [05:49] If i delete a file (say, from my desktop) when i open the trash the 'empty trash' button is greyed out, but i can still highlight the item and press delete key and delete that way. What's going on? [05:49] no answers [05:49] im going crazy [05:49] MBDL, turn off compiz [05:49] its not on [05:49] BlindCamel_, you my have so many things going on that you need to back away from.. you need to get envyng to uninstall anyting it installed then uninstall envyng.. then in syanptic you need to uninstall anything that is installed with nvidia reference.. [05:49] MBDL, in that picture I bet it is [05:50] MBDL, if it's on, you might get more help asking at #compiz-fusion. [05:50] binarymutant: by registering MIME type? [05:50] <`Onyx> anyone know any good movie makers for linux? I just wanna add an image over a mp3 and convert it into a movie. Ideas? [05:50] kfyit: the problem was deleting the prerm files in /var/lib/dpkg/info [05:50] kfyit: the solution rather... [05:50] well i dont know but iv turned it off..because my graphic card hates it [05:50] but ok [05:50] ill go over there... [05:50] thanks [05:50] hi [05:50] BlindCamel_, after all that you need to ctrl+alt+f2 getting a terminal and typing sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop.. then you can install the nvidia drivers.. then sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start [05:50] WIGGMPk -> cool you found the solution [05:51] kavitha, well I mean I really don't know the specifics of your code, but most of the time servers will just serve the mp4 file and let the clients take care of the rest through their own plugins and video players [05:51] ;-) [05:51] kfyit: aye, I should of looked harder online before coming [05:51] that's what she said? [05:51] I would like to program a function key to emit a couple lines of text, can this be done? [05:51] sorry.. I know [05:51] and.. I know [05:51] kavitha, for example a server serves an mp4 to a Windows client that client will use a plugin in IE to view the mp4 with Media Player [05:51] BlindCamel_, after that.. reboot [05:52] izinucs, i tried all that befor i did the envyNG stuff [05:52] i am having trouble running gpg --keyserver [05:52] WIGGMPk -> those must be something new, there were never a /etc/kernel before [05:52] can anyone help me with child pid errors in apache 2? [05:52] nosferatu: what's the trouble? [05:52] BlindCamel_, then I have no more suggestions.. sorry [05:52] oynx [05:52] <`Onyx> Yo [05:52] ok [05:52] I know it might not be the best solution [05:52] but you might want to just use a windows one [05:52] with wine [05:53] it gives me a warning: unsafe ownership on conf file [05:53] deadbattery: do you know which version of apache you're using? [05:53] I have no problem with it.. but a lot of people want to not use any non-linux or open source programs or anything [05:53] <`Onyx> I will probably just use a windows machine to do it [05:53] then errors [05:53] what media player(s) are most compatible/suitable for flux? [05:53] well you can run the windows program with wine [05:53] <`Onyx> But I thought I''d ask if I could do it on this computer first [05:53] shouldn't be a problem [05:53] you can.. [05:53] <`Onyx> Nah I hate wine [05:53] koshar2, I like mplayer :) [05:53] binarymutant cli? [05:53] really? works with everything I've ever tried perfectly [05:53] koshar2, flux meaning fluxbox? [05:53] except games [05:54] koshar2, yeah [05:54] binarymutant *tick* [05:54] <`Onyx> Doesn't work well for me and my stuff at all [05:54] i hav a server application which streams video and audio... that ll be written into shared memory,from there our plugin takes audio/video and display in firefox browser [05:54] I've used plenty of movie editor type programs [05:54] you might have not used it recently or set it up correctly [05:54] <`Onyx> Oh no, It's correct [05:54] binarymutant: i hav a server application which streams video and audio... that ll be written into shared memory,from there our plugin takes audio/video and display in firefox browser [05:54] kavitha, how does it display it in the browser? [05:54] <`Onyx> It just doesn't like the programs I try run with it [05:55] for standard windows gui programs that aren't going to use directx or opengl.. I've never seen something not work [05:55] i am trying to run this: http://www.kubuntu.org/news/kde-4.2 and on the 3rd step is where i get the error [05:55] kavitha, it might be easier to pastebin your plugin [05:55] which suprised me for stuff like virtual dub [05:55] <`Onyx> I'll just wait til I get home and do it there [05:55] I still think itd be worth it to try it .. unless you can dual boot. It'll feel nice =P [05:55] alright.. well good luck either way [05:55] nosferatu: and what's the error that you get? [05:55] <`Onyx> Windows Movie Maker should be able to do it right? [05:56] binarymutant: but how? [05:56] <`Onyx> I've never tried anything like that on it [05:56] put an image over an mp3?

[05:57] nosferatu: and don't add your key as sudo [05:57] but.. for something like that.. they would actually take too long.. overly complex [05:57] I'd use windows movie maker [05:57] http://paste.ubuntu.com/113082/ [05:57] no problem [05:57] mdadm /dev/md0 -a /dev/sdd1 = re-added and updated drive to the raid.

It stopped working and I don't want to have to reboot.

Is this possible? [06:33] Hello ubuntu users, i have a quick question [06:33] anyone know why when i try to play a DVD i keep geting a error occured cant need read from resource [06:33] Peddyt: not sure what exactly you are asking... but whatever it is, the "advanced bash scripting guide" has the answer. (google for it) [06:34] sounds like a bad dvd keyser [06:34] either that or your drive is damage or not working correctly [06:34] keyser: or bad dvd drive [06:34] Peddyt, a bash shell that opens and inputs into another bash shell? [06:34] keyser: or lack of permission to use the cd drive [06:34] weird laptop is new and worked when i r an windows and it does it with all dvds [06:35] Anyways, I have burnt the latest ubuntu iso to a cd following the directions, yet it doesnt boot, is it possible to just place the iso on my hard drive and update that way? [06:35] keyser: If it's a protected DVD, you might need some !restricted codecs [06:35] how do i auth the permission to use the dvd drive? [06:35] instead of downloading 8.04 then 8.`0 === dopplerdeffect is now known as doppler|ZzzZ [06:35] oh its not burnts its all real dvd not back ups [06:35] !codecs | keyser [06:35] keyser: For multimedia issues, this page has useful information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats - See also http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/common-tasks-chap.html - But please use free formats if you can: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeFormats [06:35] 8.10- [06:36] ok thanks ill research it [06:36] keyser: real dvds have often have DRM and require special codecs [06:36] boo drm [06:36] keyser: you can avoid having to mess with codecs by using vlc [06:36] ok ill diffently check those out [06:36] binarydigit, basically it does that, but it's inputting into a different shell (not bash). [06:36] vlc [06:37] !vlc | keyser [06:37] keyser: Audio (Ogg, MP3...) players: Audacious, Banshee, Beep Media Player, Listen, Quod Libet, Rhythmbox, Exaile, XMMS2 (GTK/Gnome based) and Amarok, JuK (Qt/KDE based).

[06:37] binarymutant* [06:37] binarymutant, it's a small custom shell called irecovery [06:37] how do i get ubuntu server 8.10 on a hp mediasmart ex475? [06:38] ok gonna charge the laptop and get lc thanks a ton [06:38] racecar-56: the same way you install any other OS? maybe I don't understand your question [06:38] keyser: anytime [06:39] can anyone tell whether opengl will give better performance in plugin implementation? [06:39] Peddyt, irecovery as in the iphone tool? [06:40] Can anyone suggest some free anti virus software? what about avast? [06:40] is their a compatible version? [06:40] there-* [06:40] R34L1TY: you don't need an antivirus in linux [06:40] binarymutant, yes. you can find it at google code here: http://code.google.com/p/chronicdev/source/browse/#svn/trunk/iRecovery [06:41] Ah, im so new :) [06:41] R34L1TY: lstarnes what if you're downloading code to run on a windows box? [06:41] R34L1TY, clam [06:41] no need of antivirus in linux [06:41] kavitha: what if you're downloading code to run on a windows box? [06:41] avast isnt opensource [06:41] R34L1TY: there are some available like clamav for scanning for windows viruses so that you don't accidentally spread them [06:41] I used this amazing piece of software to revive a dead PC [06:41] clamav is ok [06:41] you can use antivirus software on your linux machines to protect your other non-linux machines] [06:41] alright, thanks [06:41] what does /usr/bin/ld: /usr/local/lib: no such file: file format not recongnized mean? [06:41] racecar-56: you might have better luck if you phrase your question more generically. e.g., how to install ubuntu on a computer without a cd drive and without a monitor. :) [06:42] ^^^^^^^^^^ thats what i need to know [06:42] Peddyt, thats not a shell, I'm trying to figure out what -s defaults to though [06:42] ive got 7.10 installed, but 8.10 downloaded, just not on a cd [06:42] using wine i hope we can install [06:42] binarymutant, is it a command prompt? I don't know the difference :/ === kchung_ is now known as fox_86 [06:43] anybody [06:43] Peddyt, iRecovery is a tool to communicate with iBoot while your device is in recovery or DFU mode. [06:43] binarymutant, -s opens a prompt, but if you do 'irecovery -s 'foo', 'foo' is ignored. [06:44] ok binarymutant [06:44] Peddyt, right, what about ircovery -s --help ? [06:45] Peddyt, -s probably starts a bash shell but I'm not sure [06:45] binarymutant, irecovery -s --help ignores 'help', it just opens as if it were '-s'. [06:46] binarymutant, is there a way to pipe commands through bash into the recovery shell? [06:47] Peddyt, oh I get it now, it's just like minicom [06:48] Peddyt, pastebin the help [06:49] Peddyt, like irecovery -s , and then help [06:51] hey [06:52] Peddyt, also try "(whatever_cmds) | irecovery -s" [06:52] <^Cheeky> hi, i just purchased a core 2 duo processor and is it true you have to turn it on some how , before you can actually utilize 2 processors, if it is true, how would i be able to do this in ubunti 8.04 ? [06:53] ^Cheeky, turn it on like plug in the power? or like turn on the extra processor through the bios? [06:54] n/m through the kernel right [06:54] The 2 cores should be recognized by the Ubuntu kernel at once [06:54] <^Cheeky> binarydigit, via bios ... so its true you have to turn this feature on ? [06:54] As for applications being dualcore aware... you might have to recompile [06:54] ^Cheeky, no clue, I've only ever had one processor :/ [06:55] <^Cheeky> well i so do it [06:55] <^Cheeky> i [06:55] Cheeky, to answer it with the least amount of confusion the answer is no, you do not have to turn it on. [06:56] ^Cheeky: The ubuntu gen kernel is smp aware... so it will just work [06:56] im getting messed up textures in games and some graphical apps, is there any way to fix this other than turning off visual effects? [06:56] halooooooooo [06:56] as long as you have a kernel that supports smp [06:56] by default I believe it does [06:56] being new to ubuntu im trying to edit my splashy but i keep getting erros on boot that doesnt premit me to use my developed splashy is there any way or is this a know bug/issue [06:56] type uname -a [06:56] b3z3rk: have you enabled/updated your video card/drivers? [06:57] Cheeky, if you see SMP in there you will be fully supported [06:57] what's a good graphical svn to use? [06:57] m [06:57] c [06:57] ashlessburn: errors, or regular boot messages?

You'll be just fine with that [06:58] R34L1TY, the machine im having issues with is my work laptop and uses generic intel drivers. far as i know everything is up to date [06:59] Cheeky, some of your applications might not take advantage of two cores but there are quite a few default applications that do [06:59] mcnellis, http://tortoisesvn.tigris.org/ [06:59] mcnellis: hehe, right click menus are nice like in tortis-svn but I have never looked for a GUI svn in linux [06:59] mcnellis: and whadaya know, tortoise is multi-platform [07:00] ashlessburn: you probably missed something in your splashy endeavours and the systems just not showing any splash screen at all. i dunno what kind of errors you're seeing tho. [07:00] R34L1TY, my gaming rigs doesnt have any issues with this (Nvidia GTX280) which is why im assuming its the shitty on-board graphics??? [07:00] Cheeky, if you do a lot of compression search aptitude for pbzip2 which is a smp aware bzip2 utility [07:00] <^Cheeky> Teutonic, so .. is it turned on or do i have to turn it on .. so when ever i need it , it would just kick in ? s [07:00] Cheeky, it will just kick in when ever its capable of doing so [07:01] give me one sec ill run a virt on another machine [07:01] <^Cheeky> Teutonic, so i dont need to do anything then ? [07:02] need some help getting wireless too work in ubuntu 00:05.0 Network controller: RaLink RT2600 802.11 MIMO [07:02] Splashy ERROR: Couldn't splashy_start_splashy().

[07:07] nellmathew, have you tried the forums? you will generally ahve more luck when asking with specific hardware models in mind? [07:07] Peddyt, well that's not very helpful is it? can you pipe stuff to it like this "some_cmd | irecovery -s" ? [07:07] I need it because cups only works after I restart the service [07:07] kavitha: I would go with the ole trial and error [07:07] one more question to ask before i head off, is there a official fix for the anth wifi 5007 or am i stuck using the ndiswrapper [07:07] kavitha: give it a test, if it doesn't improve performance or give any benifits, get rid of it [07:07] R34L1TY, check your text, linux is case-sensitive [07:07] why is it when I sometimes click play on a song in my rythmbox it doesn't play?

[07:09] RAWR, no songs are playing [07:09] binarymutant, hold on, I'll try something. It's hard to see if the command took affect, so just hold on. [07:09] harley, did you move the files?

[07:10] TiZ, try alsa instead of esound [07:10] Titan8990: ok [07:10] c10, huh? What do you mean? Just remove a sound daemon altogether?

I just want to turn it off haha, but I have no idea how... I've searched around online, only found stuff dealing with GUI/Desktop screen savers, obviously not what I'm looking for >.< [07:12] exit [07:12] bye [07:12] Peddyt, create file, put all the commands you want to run in this file and "-rcfile | irecovery -s" [07:12] c10, I didn't know that. I got esd set up just the way I want it, too. To be honest, I feel iffy about it. I don't know if I'd break any applications by removing esound. [07:12] hello, does someone knows well ubuntu's boot process? If I boot ubuntu's kernel,initd,userland and do a hdparm -tT /dev/md1 the performances are ok...if I boot ubuntu's kernel,initd,and gentoo userland(stop at mounting /proc and gives me a shell) I've horible hdparm -tT /dev/md1 results...so what could be the difference between the 2 setup(what /sys or parameters are passed from userland?) === david is now known as Guest7987 [07:13] obama_linux, try this page. http://rt2x00.serialmonkey.com/wiki/index.php/Main_Page Hope it helps [07:13] TiZ, are you using gnome? [07:13] Yeah. [07:14] binarymutant, -rcfile? so localhost~$ -rcfile? [07:14] alright thanks I'm trying now [07:14] TiZ, then go to system -> preferences -> sound and choose alsa in all the fields [07:14] That's what I already have [07:14] Peddyt, wouldn't it be more like bash -rcfile ? [07:14] I went a step further than that and removed pulse entirely, replacing it with esound. [07:14] Peddyt, I think your right, n/m [07:14] ah, thanks binarymutant, works now. [07:14] GNUtoo: why use initd with gentoo?? [07:15] Peddyt, wow really? [07:15] what does /usr/bin/ld: /usr/local/lib no such file: file format not recognized mean? [07:15] binarymutant, the -rcfile part ** [07:15] :P [07:15] wow [07:15] Titan8990, cause the system is encrypted on top of the raid... [07:15] GNUtoo: or why use a ubuntu kernel is what I should really be asking [07:15] binarymutant, I mean, it doesn't say command not found anymore :P [07:15] i phrased that wrong [07:15] Peddyt, are you putting linux on your iphone or just jail breaking it? [07:15] nothing is working [07:16] GNUtoo: i'm fairly certain ubuntu does quite a bit of patching to the kernel [07:16] binarymutant, I'm making a script that boots jailbroken ipod touch 2G, which currently is tethered to a computer, to boot. [07:16] Titan8990, cause with a gentoo kenrel,initrd the performances are also horibles...I'm trying to find out what makes it so bad...so better use a ubuntu kenrel in order to find out the performance issue [07:16] GNUtoo: and gentoo-sources is basically a vanilla kernel, not sure how much the difference there would effect performance [07:16] Titan8990, as gentoo kernel I meant vanilla [07:16] binarymutant, although, offtopic, I will install linux once an iBoot exploit is found. [07:16] anybody, been getting this for the past hour [07:17] ve [07:17] GNUtoo: and initd is required for the encyption? [07:17] Titan8990, yes [07:17] Peddyt, what about "--initfile | irecovery -s" and -rc-file should have been --rc-file [07:17] Titan8990, you need cryptsetup... === Chaldean[away] is now known as Chaldean [07:18] Peddyt, or maybe even "bash --initfile | irecovery -s" iphone seems a lot harder to work with than the ipaq [07:18] GNUtoo: it can't be patched into the kernel so it doesn't have to be loaded as a module? [07:18] Titan8990, it's not a module but a userland uttility [07:19] Titan8990, anyway the problem is the raid device not the crypto one on top of it [07:19] binarymutant, the first -rcfile method isn't throwing any errors, I'll just check if it's working. [07:19] GNUtoo: softRAID? [07:19] Titan8990, yes raid0 [07:19] uggg [07:19] Titan8990, mdadm === david is now known as Guest46897 [07:20] guys is there a way to get Ctrl+C and Ctrl+V types commands to work in the terminal window? It seems like I saw something on that a while back. [07:20] RPS, edit>keyboard shortcuts [07:20] GNUtoo: are you aware that RAID0 usually performs worse than two standalone drives, especially without a discrete controller? [07:20] RPS, be aware that making copy ctrl-c will prevent you from ctl-c'ing out of programs. [07:20] Titan8990, on ubuntu it's a little bit better [07:21] Titan8990, about 111/112MB/s [07:21] Peddyt, I'm a little confused on that ... [07:21] hey everyone. for a website i was gitting to, i had to add .ssh/config file. ever since then sshing to servers have been shoddy. this time i'm unable to connect at all to a server. I get a "ssh_exchange_identification: Connection closed by remote host" error. I clearned my known_hosts to make sure. What can I do to find out how to fix this? [07:21] GNUtoo: that sounds extremely high, are they raptors or scsi? [07:21] cia [07:21] cia [07:21] RPS, if you don't use ctrl-c, then you don't need to worry about being able to use it. [07:22] <[T]ank1> anyone know how to make the terminal server client NOT auto reconnect if it gets disconnected? [07:22] what does /usr/bin/ld: /usr/local/lib no such file: file format not recognized mean? [07:22] does anyone successfully run 3 monitors on 2 nvidia cards? [07:22] Titan8990, 500GB 5400 laptop hdd x2 (in ubuntu the individual drives reports: 76 and 82MB/s) [07:23] Hello. [07:23] question.... I have a wired connection to a router acting as a bridge. I need that router to take in plain text connections from the router, and then tunnel it through an SSHclient connection... any hints? [07:23] nownot, it couldn't link because it didn't find the file your trying to link to it [07:23] can anyone tell whether opengl will give better performance in plugin implementation? [07:23] nownot, seems like your trying to link a file to a folder instead of another file [07:23] binarymutant: im running the make script for open vmwaretools [07:24] Titan8990, s/5400/5400rpm [07:24] nownot, I have no clue how to use vmware, I'm just trying to guess what that error meant [07:25] GNUtoo: I question the benchmarking utility [07:25] GNUtoo: those benchmarks are about the same a raptor/scsi/ssd performs [07:26] Titan8990, ok i've also bonie++ benchmarks: http://rafb.net/p/an6bag48.html [07:26] rlsnfx: just set up the ssh forwarding.. if its acting as a switch then there is no forwarding (router side) needed [07:26] help me... Can not boot after insert Windows CD. [07:27] abcdef, reinstall grub [07:27] Thanks [07:29] binarymutant, that isn't working. It says 'bash:arm7_go command not found". [07:30] Titan8990, what do you think of bonie++ benchmarks? [07:30] hi [07:30] Where is documents for Grub reinstall? [07:30] !grub | abcdef [07:30] abcdef: GRUB is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost GRUB after installing Windows? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreGrub - GRUB how-tos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto [07:30] Hi there, anyone knows how to use VICE (the commodore 64 emulator)? I installed it (sudo apt-get install vice) but nothing happens when i type "vice"... Where is it?? [07:30] does anyone know if openoffice 3.0.1 will be in intrepid backports? [07:31] abcdef, how did you install gentoo? [07:31] abcdef,just follow the same doc than the grub install === letalis_ is now known as letalis [07:31] No windows installed... noting... [07:31] abcdef: http://letmegooglethatforyou.com/?q=reinstall+grub [07:31] abcdef, sorry I thought I was in #gentoo [07:31] Peddyt, no clue, do you have better documentation than http://theiphonewiki.com/wiki/index.php?title=IRecovery ? that's all I have [07:31] GNUtoo: I think the 2nd benchmarks are unreasonably high [07:32] GNUtoo: some of them atleast.... [07:32] Titan8990, ok what should I use in order to get good benchmarks? [07:32] i have a few errors on my root filesystem which is xfs, any suggestions on how i could run xfs_repair on it? i cant right now because it wont let me unmount it. :/ [07:33] nevermind... just RTFA... lol [07:33] Peddyt, is it connected through a serial port? [07:33] binarymutant, I can't find any more docos. This might work as well, is there a way to run irecovery inside bash (?), so I can type the commands manually, type /exit , and then return to my script (which irecovery is being run from), rather than returning to a regular bash prompt? [07:34] I mean RTFM.. (i just did man vice) [07:34] GNUtoo: how bad is performance difference in regular use? [07:34] binarymutant, it's connected via usb using libusb [07:34] Titan8990, when I compile sometime wa is >90% in top,and startup is so slow compared to a normal computer [07:35] I have a question.. how do I isolate the front and rear volume controls in Ubuntu? It's a dread having to unplug the monitor speakers when I use my headphones [07:35] GNUtoo: yeah, something definatly isn't right, my gentoo systems boot up in 30 secounds or less (prompt no gui) [07:35] [Help] Can't boot to Ubuntu. after insert Windows CD... Windows not installed in computer. Help me. [07:36] does anyone know if openoffice 3.0.1 will be in intrepid backports??? [07:36] Titan8990, also prompt...should I measure the time it boots [07:37] GNUtoo: does it actually boot slower than ubuntu? [07:37] does anyone know how to get the fan status out of my system using lm sensors? [07:37] Titan8990, a lot slower...but ubuntu is on an usb key [07:38] Titan8990,gentoo's hdparm report 18.80Mb/s for the usb key(/dev/sdc) [07:38] paul68: from term? [07:38] alright, update time, be back in a bit, thanks for the help guys [07:38] tyler_d: well that would be a start [07:38] paul68: acpi -t [07:39] paul68: top -2 will tell you usage [07:39] hey [07:39] Peddyt, wouldn't just running "./irecovery" do that? I'm not sure as i've never jailbreak an iphone or ipod. Can you use minicom instead of irecovery? [07:39] is it possible to have dual boot with windows and ubuntu and to use TrueCrypt with both [07:40] tyler_d: ok but what does thermal mean in acpi -t [07:40] Hello [07:40] after installing nvidia drivers i cant select any refresh rate [07:40] paul68: the temp of your cpu -- current [07:41] im new to linux [07:41] !bash [07:41] is there an IRC where ubuntu developers are, like fedora-dev?

Guide: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UsingTheTerminal [07:41] tyler_d: ok is there a way to get the status of my fans? if they are running or not [07:41] hey how can you fix the suspend error, When u turn the machine back on all you get is a blank screen and a cursor === NotLando is now known as Lanlost [07:42] etech, #ubuntu-motu [07:42] binarymutant, I'm making a script that counts down for DFU mode, and that uploads multiple files required for it to boot (irecovery -f, which exits back to the script). I'm getting stuck at the irecovery -s part, which exits to bash, and not the script. [07:42] is there a way to check to see whether my video card has the correct driver? i can see my GeForce2 card in lspci [07:42] paul68: hmm not sure on that one [07:42] paul68 after installing lmsensors, just type sensors at prompt [07:43] Help i cant suspend my laptop, whenever i turn it back on i will get a blank screen and have to restart [07:43] tyler_d: or a way that I can detect the fans cause it aint in lspci nor in hwlst [07:43] koshar2: I did that the only thing that is comming out is the temp of my 2 cores not able to get the status of my fans [07:44] [Q]Can not booting ubuntu after insert MS WinCD(Install is not)... Help me. [07:44] ok, so what's the deal with creating ad-hoc networks in 8.10? if I use network manager applet, it just spins for a minute, and then connects to previous network, if I try the command line way detalied on the ubuntu wiki, the commands fail. Any advice? [07:44] binarymutant, I'm having a look at http://code.google.com/p/gojohnnyboi/source/browse/#svn/trunk/redj0hnny, which claims to be a more advanced irecovery. [07:44] ? anyone have a solution? [07:45] paul68: I think lm_sensors is what you might be looking for [07:45] paul68: install that and then from term run sudo sensors-detect [07:45] paul68 then the rest depends on whether your hardware is suported [07:45] where can i go for random chat? [07:45] Is there a French channel ? [07:45] !fr [07:45] Ce canal est en anglais uniquement. Si vous avez besoin d'aide ou voulez discuter en francais, merci de rejoindre #ubuntu-fr [07:45] Help i cant suspend my laptop, whenever i turn it back on i will get a blank screen and have to restart [07:46] Titan8990, 30s to init,3min52 to password prompt(no xdm) [07:46] Daft_Punk #ubuntu-offtopic [07:46] koshar2, can i meet chicks there [07:46] lol [07:46] stay on-topic please [07:46] GNUtoo: thats horrible, is a interface timing out on DHCP? any spots noticable where it is hanging? [07:46] Titan8990, no [07:47] anyone know how to fix suspend command? [07:47] Peddyt, ... how about "irecovery -f scriptfile; sh scriptfile | irecovery -s" ... I'm running thin on ideas. [07:47] I Like Cheese [07:47] Titan8990, the thing is that evry step is slow...mabe there are some unnecessary ones but all the steps are slow [07:47] Brando753: don't turn off the laptop on close .... thats what I ended up doing [07:47] ? [07:47] binarymutant, -f is for binary files that are loaded into iBoot... [07:48] Brando753: set up your power settings so it doesn't turn the screen off [07:48] binarymutant, I'm having a look at xmacro. [07:48] ok, so what's the deal with creating ad-hoc networks in 8.10? if I use network manager applet, it just spins for a minute, and then connects to previous network, if I try the command line way detalied on the ubuntu wiki, the commands fail. Any advice? [07:48] can i not suspend my laptop/ [07:48] does anyone know if tint2 has an update, so that the windows title will update in tint, IE: if im playing a new song it wont just say "Amarok" it will give the title of the song in tint as well [07:48] anyone succesfully created an adhoc network? [07:49] It seems the matter was as simple as plugging my monitor speakers into the center channel for the motherboard surround output and isolating it from the front headphone port that way.. [07:49] I THERE no way to suspend? (srry caps) [07:49] is [07:49] Brando753: kde 4.2 [07:49] stop yelling at me :( [07:49] kde?

[07:51] what's that brando? i couldnt hear you over all the muting [07:51] lol [07:52] quick question. looking for a good audio player for gnome, like amarok to kde and winamp to windows. [07:52] rhythmbox [07:52] is great [07:52] rip_, you can use amarok, its wickedor jajuk [07:52] any reason i'd be getting "ssh_exchange_identification: Connection closed by remote host"? ssh -vv [ip.address] seems to read from the right identity file. [07:52] rip_: For gnome u can try banshee [07:52] or songbirg [07:53] songbird [07:53] rip_: FOR GNOM i STILL USE aMAROK [07:53] should ubuntu automatically install the nVidia GeForce2 graphics driver? or do I need to install it manually? [07:53] sorry [07:53] lol 4 answers, guess i'll try each one out [07:53] Mood: manually. you have to agree to it or something like that [07:53] Hello everyone [07:54] ramontayag: ok. by "manually" i actually meant download the driver and do some sudo commands. it sounds like you mean there's an onscreen prompt upon ubuntu fresh installation [07:54] Could anyone point me into a program that is an Mp3 player and is verry cool looking and cant live without [07:54] ? [07:54] lol i just asked that same question [07:55] quodlibet ftw [07:55] i have exile mp3 player and it just doesnt seem that cool [07:55] rip_: amarok is good too, but banshee is more integrated with the gnome desktop [07:55] paul68 you have to run the script to poll all the hardware to see what hardware is compatible, [07:55] flashkidd: installing banshee now, i'll give that a shot, thx [07:56] hola, anyone here associated with canonical, or at least a community contributor? [07:56] flashkidd banshee sucks, no dynamic playlist is what makes amarok. [07:56] rip: okay ur welcome [07:56] flashkidd: any that canonical backs? looks like banshee isn't [07:56] I'm feeling inclined to update a Wiki page: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/OpenVPN?action=edit&editor=text [07:57] rip_ amarok works just fine in gnome [07:57] Mood: yes. for me, it always popped up on the top right bar.. talking about restricted drivers. [07:57] I like rhythmbox alot actuall;y [07:57] koshar2: I personally use amarok, but I use kde desktop [07:57] Peddyt, could iBooter do this as well? [07:57] ... the information there is subpar; http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=752127 has much better instructions [07:57] ramontayag: ok, thank you [07:57] but the forum post is much harder to find than the wiki [07:57] ikarius: go for it! [07:57] koshar2: amarok is better integrated with kde [07:58] ZuckusFIll: rhytmbox is of for a default player i guess, but it is miles behind amarok IMO [07:58] koshar2: on kde hands down amarok ftw [07:58] yeah [07:58] but I hate loading up billions of KDE libraries in gnome just to run a few amarok features [07:58] hi all [07:58] flashkidd it may be better integrated with KDE as it was built in QT. but its still fine in gnome just like most QT apps, === asiniscalchi is now known as aLeSD_ [07:58] how could I reconfigure the xserver ? [07:58] sure but you have to load the libraries [07:58] I just changed my graphic card [07:59] and install them [07:59] wastes space and ram [07:59] binarymutant, ibooter looks good, but I get this error when compiling: http://pastebin.com/m4f8df44b [07:59] ZuckusFIll yeah and you have to load librarys to run VLC also [07:59] aLeSD_: sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg === _RTA_ is now known as |RTA| [07:59] Peddyt, wasnt an error [07:59] sure, that's why I use totem most of the time [07:59] btw amarok 2.* is a big backward step [08:00] or mplayer for gnome [08:00] binarydigit, I downloaded the wrong source, brb [08:00] koshar2: I use firefox in kde, but it is a gnome app too [08:00] ZuckusFIll hard drives are cheap these days so i really dont care much about a few librarys, [08:00] binarydigit, I downloaded a precompiled binary, testing now. [08:00] yeah [08:00] old habits die hard I guess [08:01] I just like to at least try and stick with GTK apps in gnome and QT apps in KDE [08:01] ya know? [08:01] also they just FEEL more integrated [08:01] ZuckusFIll thats like saying i like to stick with .net 1 apps or .net2 apps in windows [08:01] like how you have to think twice when you see that update takes up 100mb space, before realizing you dont have a 4gb hdd anymore lol [08:02] binarymutant, it says 'iphone in recovery mode not found :('. I went into DFU correctly, though :/ [08:02] except for that I have no use for windows, know nothing about it, and don't understand what you just said [08:02] * rip_ cheers for ZuckusFIll [08:02] means nothing to me [08:02] ZuckusFIll: i can see yur point , but i wont be limited to lesser proggies because of the dev kit they were created in, [08:03] but I do know, I just have old habits of liking to be conservative with the libraries I install [08:03] yeah [08:03] but for some, who just want simplicity, speed, and a nice simple interface (like me) rhythmbox might just be perfect [08:04] ZuckusFIll there just dependencys really, just like java1.6, OOcore ect... [08:04] binarymutant, looks like DFU is different to recovery mode. Testing stuff. [08:04] plus it's already installed in ubuntu [08:04] anyway [08:04] ok, so what's the deal with creating ad-hoc networks in 8.10? if I use network manager applet, it just spins for a minute, and then connects to previous network, if I try the command line way detalied on the ubuntu wiki, the commands fail. Any advice? [08:04] ZuckusFIll amarok isnt even default in kubuntu is it? [08:05] Peddyt, have you seen this http://kentbrewster.com/hack-your-ipod-touch/ ? [08:05] koshar2: i thought it was, i know it is in mepis [08:05] hi mates [08:05] not sure [08:05] don't use kubuntu much [08:05] I tried to upgrade my 8.04 to 8.10 and the mouse and the keyboard stopped working [08:06] howdy [08:06] abruski: bluetooth? [08:06] abruski: 8.10 doesnt support keyboards or mice, they are depreciated [08:06] i must admit it would be nice if it was compiled to be a little more less kde dependant though , calling kmail when it barfs is a pain [08:06] nope [08:06] so, xrandr wont work across multiple video cards right? [08:06] binarymutant, I haven't, but it's outdated anyway. iPod touch 2G uses a different bootloader and firmware. [08:06] usb [08:06] koshar2: can't get kmail to do tls for the life of me [08:07] Peddyt, what about this http://www.jailbreakme.com/ [08:07] abruski: and you've tried the regular stuff.. reconnecting in another usb port, rebooting and so on? [08:07] yes [08:07] lsusb [08:07] plus kde,s single click select drives me crazy when a kde dialog pops up [08:07] but strangely enough ctrl+alt+del works [08:08] hey do you think we could avoid discussing ipod jailbreaking in the UBUNTU chanel please? [08:08] there is an irc server for that [08:08] how do i define an ethernet adapter alias with network-manager? [08:08] How can i activate wireless settings on install of an ubuntu installation? I'm using preseed to install [08:08] irc.osx86.hu [08:09] binarymutant, that's outdated as well. I'm looking to boot it, not jailbreak it. Currently, iPod touch 2G only has a tethered boot, it has to connect to a computer and have its RAM patched every time it boots. I don't want to enter every command (these commands http://idiotsoftech.com/boot.txt) manually, I just want a script that does it. I've done a lot, except the script exits after 'irecovery.exe -s'. [08:09] Peddyt, ZuckusFIll has a point, they probably would be able to provide better support as I only know how to put linux onto stuff [08:09] .hu? as in hungary? [08:10] hu is hungary [08:10] not sure, but they all speak english [08:10] I'm in there all the time [08:10] Peddyt, try minicom if you have a bootloader already on it [08:10] right now even [08:10] K [08:11] ZuckusFIll, thanks, but I'm not discussing jailbreaking, I'm discussing how to return to a bash script after another shell exits. I don't even want to jailbreak, I've already done that, and I did use irc.osx86.hu #iphone for help. [08:11] hi [08:11] binarydigit, how do I use minicom? [08:11] for USB [08:11] Does anyone here know if a partition table can be changed from GPT to something that windows can recognize ? My windows boot disk only sees the HDD as one partition even though it is 4 partitions. [08:12] whats the gnome equivalent of task manager? like when a fullscreen app freezes, how do i get out? [08:12] Gumby: Es u botes? [08:12] you can't change a partition table without repartitioning [08:12] Gumby: dangerous stuff [08:12] rip_: system monitor [08:12] Gumby: I recommend backing up first [08:12] tyler_d: so is create a partition table that other OS's cant read. [08:12] tyler_d: not that I like windows at all, but why would ubuntu do this? [08:12] abruski: and is there a keyboard shortcut for it, launching it into high priority? [08:12] rip_: ctrl-alt-backspace will do something to get you out [08:13] Gumby: If your first partition is windows and you just want to boot from that sure, ms-sys, new bootloader [08:13] Gumby: what is the fs? [08:13] ctrl+alt+del restarts the xserver [08:13] oop [08:13] sorry backspace [08:13] tyler_d: I mean hell, even cfdisk cant read GTP. [08:14] MeVsTheVoices: as I stated, the windows install disk does not see any partitions. Only a 250GB HDD [08:14] Peddyt, you can use a kernel mod called usbserial [08:14] ZuckusFIll: lmao i cant believe i fell for that. thats like falling for "the cheat menu is accessed by alt+f4". [08:14] Hi. I'm trying to set a custom login sound, and it sounds REALLY screwed up. Kind of like it's being rushed through. Can anyone help me with this? [08:15] Of note is that it plays normally everywhere except for the sounds dialog and the actual login [08:15] tyler_d: fs right now is irrelevant as the XP installer (as well as vista) dont even see a single partition. Just an unformatted drive [08:15] well it got you out didn't it? [08:15] Gumby: not familiar with that one.. like I said, back it up and format it accordingly [08:15] binarymutant, how do I install the kernel mod? [08:15] not that bad right? [08:15] ZuckusFIll: yes it did lol [08:15] tyler_d: however I have ntfs, fat32, and ext3 partition [08:15] Gumby: all those extentions are readable from within windows [08:16] Gumby: ext3 requires a plugin though [08:16] tyler_d: IF the windows installer (or windows) can even see a GPT [08:16] tyler_d: which it can not [08:16] binarymutant, got it, nevermind. Sorry for asking how to do every single thing, :P === NicDumZ|Zzz is now known as NicDumZ [08:17] Slart: any ideas? [08:17] hi there [08:17] Gumby: what is GPT.. sorry ,don't recognize the accronym [08:17] ie: I had windows installed, then installed intrepid. I can still choose windows via grub, but it fails to boot (kernel dump) because it can not read GPT. [08:17] tyler_d: its the partition table format that intrepid uses [08:17] GUID Partition Table [08:17] Gumby: k sorry [08:17] hey all. i am having an issue installing ubuntu to a usb stick. essentially using the usb stick as a hard drive. it installs fine but when i try boot from it the pc does not see an OS to boot from, despite setting the USb to boot in the bios. what could be the issue. note this is not a live persistent install, it's a normal install using the usb stick as a hard drive. thanks [08:17] hi, i have a whole bunch of .tif files in greyscale, and want to convert them to b&w. i figure convert or mogrify is what i want, but not sure precisely how to use mogrify to do this. any ideas? [08:18] abruski: nope.. usb usually just works.. at least with keyboards and mice..google didn't find anything useful either.. [08:18] anyone can suggest me about how to install serial modem external to ubuntu? [08:18] Gumby: I stuck with ext3... [08:18] tyler_d: ext is a filesystem type, not a partition table [08:18] folks, i am using ubuntu 8.04, i have tried installing flash several times today with backports and/or the flash 10 .deb install file from the abobe website. i made sure one was removed before i installed the other.. any suggestions why this might be happening? [08:18] psypher246: i'm not a whizz at it, but you may need to make it bootable, have you tried unetbootin? [08:18] Gumby: yes with you so far [08:18] unetbootin will kake apersistent setup, not what i want [08:18] sexcopter, do you mean you want to go from greyscale to one bit B&W? [08:19] make* [08:19] binarymutant, scratch that, I thought there was something called 'kernel-modules-usbserial', but I can't find it. Do you know where to find usbserial? [08:19] and yes i did make it bootable [08:19] shear: yeah, exactly [08:19] tyler_d: so sticking with ext3 doesnt mean anything in this case. thats not the issue. the issue is the partition table itself can not be read. [08:19] Gumby: sounds like you know more then me sir... [08:19] Gumby: which really doesn't say alot though ;) [08:19] hehe, ok. I appreciate the effort [08:20] psypher246: hmmm... another option might be usb-creator ..? [08:20] hey people. I am running snort on my ubuntu hardy machine, and have configured multiple ip addresses using aliases [08:20] anyone? === tyler_d is now known as tyler_d|sleeping [08:20] should I now also modify /etc/snort/snort.debian.conf to include both eth0 and eth0:1 in DEBIAN_SNORT_INTERFACE="eth0"? [08:21] sexcopter, give this a shot. " convert image.jpg -monochrome image-bw.jpg " [08:21] sexcopter: no, thats not it, you not understanding what I mean. i don't want a bootbale live cd on a usb stick. i want to use a sub stick as a hard drive, so boot up with cd, choose to install ubuntu to usb stick and boot off that [08:21] Can someone please help me with the compile error? http://pastebin.com/m4f8df44b [08:21] Gumby: is this on a mac? [08:21] gumby: I've never seen ubuntu use any partition table other than MBR by default [08:21] Can someone help me install my display drivers? I'm using this walkthrough (http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=5086971&postcount=) but when I get to the end it says I'm useing a Xen kernal and it does not support that. I'm new to Linux so I have no clue what this means and how to remedy it. [08:21] I have seen PPC macs use it though [08:21] jtaji: no, its a PC [08:22] oops [08:22] hrmmm.. [08:22] would ext4 give me more free space than ext3 would... even when removing the 5% disk reserve? I suppose 'no' [08:22] shear: that looks like just the ticket, will try it, thanks [08:22] I did have OSX86 installed on it like a year ago. but I have installed many an OS since then [08:22] psypher246: i'm sorry, i don't really follow you [08:22] Manix [08:22] Peddyt: that is a very small paste. What are you trying to compile and please give a little more info on the compile error [08:22] Can someone please help me with the compile error? http://pastebin.com/m1e854fbe (wrong pastebin before) [08:22] what vid card is it? [08:22] Peddyt, oh it's in the kernel source, you'll have to compile a new kernel for it [08:22] SmokeyD, that was the wrong pastebin :P [08:22] Gumby: hmm, this is the first time I'm learning about GPTs and EFI [08:22] GTX 280 [08:22] Peddyt: :) [08:23] sexcopter: just ignore the fact that i'm using a usb stick and think of me installing ubuntu to a hard drivbe and the system won't see the os [08:23] Gumby: I guess your pc must have an EFI bios though ? [08:23] has nothing to do with live cd's/usb unetbootin or usb-creator [08:23] jtaji: and windows didnt stop booting until after I installed ubuntu this last time and all I did was format the root partition when installing [08:23] binarymutant, I'm not compiling a new kernel for something so trivial. I'm going to try to compile iBooter, instead, please have a look at my last pastebin. [08:23] jtaji: no idea [08:23] psypher246: oh, hang on, i think i see the misunderstanding. i was thinking of a usb stick, you mean an external hdd..? [08:23] dump: How can i activate wireless settings on install of an ubuntu installation? I'm using preseed to install [08:23] Peddyt, this is why embedded devices should always have a serial port :P [08:23] it is a usb stick [08:24] but think of it as a hard drive as I am going to use it just like a hard drive [08:24] like a SSD on a netbook [08:24] yes :P I should just go and buy a microcontroller programmer. [08:24] Manix, Ubuntu didn't automatically find the restricted driver for you? [08:24] Peddyt, pastebin that make file [08:24] psypher246: ok, so just to check, did you run a live session, choose to install and partition the usb stick as if it were a harddrive? [08:25] sexcopter: YEs! [08:25] exactly [08:25] it did and it installed it but it didn't give me any screen resolutions [08:25] I [08:25] binarymutant, here's the make file: http://pastebin.com/m7e1f3309 [08:25] yeah [08:25] I am using vmplayer to run an instance of ubuntu server, is there a way of changed consoles like without using ? [08:25] psypher246: and you're sure your mobo/bios supports booting from usb? [08:25] I'm still stuck with this crap having half the screen off my screen [08:25] Peddyt, and libibooter.o [08:25] I heard people were having problems with the GTX280 but I thought they were solved by now [08:25] yup, tried 3 diff pc's as well as vmware [08:25] hey guys i have an issue i updated my kernel to the newest one. now my computer can't get DHCP i have an intel 8101E chipset ethernet card [08:25] and EnvyNG didn't work? [08:26] psypher246: sorry, unless i have a brainwave, i don't htink i'm going to be able to help. have you searched the forums/google? [08:26] havn't tried that [08:26] yeah [08:26] give envy a try [08:26] okay doing 25 updates right now [08:26] 235* updates [08:27] sexcopter: yeah but everything talk about the live cd setup method, hard to find what i am referring to [08:27] the card works fine if i boot to the older kernel [08:27] binarymutant, libibooter.o actually looks like binary or something unreadable. did you mean libibooter.h? [08:27] hello, how can I set up Pidgin to point to Privoxy so I can mask my ip? [08:27] I just managed to install Vista and Ubuntu on an Nvidia FakeRaid RAID5 [08:27] took me all day besides the 8 hrs spent at work [08:28] ha [08:28] Peddyt, I probably won't need it, and ya that was an oops [08:28] look for documents for grub reinstall [08:28] hello everyone... does anyone know how I can get my sound to sync up for flash movies in Firefox 3? [08:28] I was told this morning I was s.o.l. [08:28] binarymutant, what was an oops? [08:28] Baatti: I used http://wiki.noreply.org/noreply/TheOnionRouter/TorifyHOWTO/InstantMessaging when I was connecting to Privoxy+Tor. Those instructions might work for you, too. [08:28] proved them wrong [08:28] did they package it wrong? [08:28] Peddyt, the .o because that's the compiled one, but here try this makefile instead http://pastebin.com/ma87b809 [08:29] hi - i have backed up my laptop to a USB-HDD using clonezilla. Now i want to copy the image to a QEMU image to test it went well. Is this possible? (I have to send laptop in for repair...) [08:29] oh, you made an oops. hehe [08:29] rww thank you [08:29] psypher246: here's a thought: perhaps you need to install to the usb stick (done already, i assume), but install grub to the first partition of your internal hdd, then you will probably have to craft an entry in /boot/grub/menu.lst that points to your usb partition. you could probably copy an entry from a normal installation and change the root [08:30] binarymutant, cc1plus: error: unrecognised debug output level "fPIC" [08:30] is intrepid just as stable as hardy at this point? (meaning, if i can get my drivers working properly, it should be good to go right?) [08:30] yeah it should [08:30] running 8.04.2 need help getting wireless too work please someone help me 00:05.0 Network controller: RaLink RT2600 802.11 MIMO [08:30] I'm loving intrepid [08:30] Peddyt, let me get the ibooter source and mess around with it brb [08:30] Hi. my 2.26.7-11 kernel has disappeared...and i didn't do anything except look at the grub menu in grub editor. back to 2.26.7-7. How can I get it back? [08:31] binarymutant, for your convenience :P : http://www.iphonelinux.org/files/ibooter-1.0.tar.bz2 [08:31] i'm gonna upgrade then and see how it goes :] thanks ZuckusFIll [08:31] gmathews: is it still installed ? [08:31] who's nellmathew? [08:31] Does anyone know if there's a file where the preferences for GEdit are stored? [08:31] neil_d: it has to be - how can i check? [08:32] - sockets, i've been here pretty often for the last month or so [08:32] Is there any way to change the commands executed when you click the shutdown button? I can't think of any other way to get logout sounds to play === nellmathew is now known as sockets [08:32] gmathews: check appropriate files in /boot [08:32] khmer42: try gconf-editor [08:32] hello all [08:32] Peddyt, what's the depends for it? [08:32] neil_d: it is there.. [08:33] binarymutant, I don't know. [08:33] neil_d: It just doesn't show up in my grub on boot [08:33] sexcopter: I was looking for the actual file where they are stored so I can write a bash script to get things set up how I like it on a new install. [08:34] khmer42: ~/.config, or ~/.gconf, depends on which data [08:34] khmer42: oh, i see. not sure off hte top of my head [08:34] khmer42: I believe you can use gconftool from the command-line [08:34] sexcopter: yeah i could do that, but the point is i'm trying to setup a minimal firewall with just a usb stick for storage. no hard drive. i'm starting to think that my problem at the moment is vmware and not the usb or setup. gonnatry with virtualbox [08:34] gmathews: if /boot/grub/menu.lst is correct, and the package is installed correctly, try "sudo update-grub" [08:34] jtaji: that would be suggested [08:34] looking for a way to view the size of a folder on disk i tryed "ls -l" but it is saying the folder size is 640 () [08:34] but its like 250meg [08:34] sudo apt-get install shaper [08:34] DevMonkeyX_: you're looking for du. See "man du" for options. [08:35] DevMonkeyX_: du -sh [08:35] gmathews: you could hand edit /boot/grub/menu.lst file an put the entry back at the bottom, I think there is also a control for update-grub that controls how many old kernels are listed. [08:35] sudo apt-get install shaper no ubuntu server 8.10 com problems ? [08:35] thanks guys, can i sort by size using du, i looked in the man but doesnt seem to be an option [08:36] khmer42: i see a few files at ~/.gconf/apps/gedit-2/ [08:36] having issue with tab-completion @ the CLI [08:36] DevMonkeyX_: I usually do something like du | sort -n [08:36] Hugo_Senna: there must be a reason why both Ubuntu and Debian removed it [08:36] thanks again rww :P [08:36] honest i am learning :P somthing just p*ss me off [08:36] sexcopter: Thanks I'll take a look [08:36] gmathews: set "# howmany=all" [08:37] it is no longer in /boot/grub/menu.lst neil_d. How can i redownload it, then it will sort it automatically? Not really keen to manually add the entry into menu.1st [08:37] hi all [08:37] speaker-test -Dplug:surround40 -c4 -l1 -twav [08:37] oops [08:37] lol [08:37] I just reconfigured my xserver ... but the 3d is not working anymore ... why ? [08:37] [NTAuthority]: tanks [08:37] Peddyt, I built it without error... [08:37] Hugo_Senna: see http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=500594 too [08:37] psypher246: ok... the only other thing i can think of is when you boot from usb, it gets the device names wrong. perhaps if you specified devices/partitions by uuid that would fix it? [08:37] hi. [08:37] tab-completion @ commandline doesn't work [08:37] Peddyt, sudo apt-get install libusb-dev [08:38] binarymutant, I already have that installed... [08:38] hey [08:38] sexcopter: yeah i thought bout that as well, but i figured i would at least see grub then, all i get is no operating system found [08:38] binarymutant, are you i386? [08:38] Peddyt, ya [08:39] I force installed a package using dpkg -i --force-conflict, although now when I try and install any package I get the same conflict error, how can I tell apt to STFU about a particular conflict? [08:39] psypher246: in which case, sorry to say i think i'm out of ideas... see what your experiment in vmware yields.... [08:39] gmathews: its no problem you can experiment just don't alter the first kernel listed (the default), check the "# howmany " line and regenerate the menu.lst with update-grub [08:39] AnonnYmouse: can you give an example that's not working? [08:39] phix: resolve the conflict, apt is trying to help :) [08:39] okay neil_d going to try that [08:39] gmathews: got to go to dinner now. [08:39] binarymutant, gtg, thanks for all your help. [08:40] lol wait! neil_d :P [08:40] thanks though neil_d.. [08:40] NTAuthority: is there a preference or apt.conf directive to allow a particular conflict? [08:40] sexcopter : thnx. [08:40] sudo apt-get inst does nothing [08:40] phix: may be, but usually the conflicts are there for a reason [08:40] AnonnYmouse, usually a bash-completion file doesn't include options [08:40] phix: like overwriting the same file [08:41] AnonnYmouse: yeah, that command there is "apt-get", and "install" is not a command in that sense [08:41] AnonnYmouse: uncomment the three lines about bash_completion in /etc/bash.bashrc [08:41] moin [08:41] AnonnYmouse, want mine, apparently mine does [08:41] NTAuthority: no I want JDK1.4 installed, I don't care about this -> xulrunner-1.9: Conflicts: j2re1.4 [08:41] thnx . i'll try quickly [08:41] neil_d: I think it worked - http://paste.ubuntu.com/113121/ [08:42] phix: there may be something like pinning, never actually lived with a dpkg conflict [08:42] sexcopter: yeah aparently the vm systems don't actually support this, mmmm [08:42] NTAuthority: I have jdk6 set as /usr/bin/java so xulrunner shouldnt be complaining [08:42] binarymutant: I got it working, thanks a lot. [08:42] NTAuthority: it's a non-serious conflict [08:42] NTAuthority: infact can I file a bug report against it? it is stupid [08:42] phix: near pinning in the docs, I mean :) you could recompile xulrunner, or replace stuff in the dpkg local pakcage lis [08:43] Peddy, np hopefully one day you'll be able to put linux on it :P [08:43] NTAuthority: hmmm, yeah I could redo xulrunner [08:43] !bug | phix [08:43] phix: If you find a bug in Ubuntu or any of its derivatives, please file a bug report at: http://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu - Bugs in/wishes for the bots can be filed at http://launchpad.net/ubuntu-bots [08:43] phix: there's already a bug report for it, by the way [08:43] sweet guys. that worked [08:45] binarymutant: Yep I sure will, when iboot is cracked. I already have a nice terminal setup though, with all my favourite *nix programs, and apt-get :) [08:46] how can i run sudo dpkg -i and have dpkg automatically download dependencies? [08:46] hossam: just type apt-get -f install if there are deps [08:46] embedded devices are so cool [08:46] some of topic, but how can i disable all these "flashkidd left the room (quit: Remote closed the connection)." in the window? Using pidguin [08:47] binarymutant: I hate embedded devices... if they're too closed [08:47] Scix: Open the Plugins window and enable the "Hide Joins/Parts" plugin. [08:47] scizzo-, well this is a .deb that i downloaded from a source other than a repository [08:47] hossam: yes [08:47] hossam: exactly [08:47] scizzo-, will try [08:47] NTAuthority, try iPAQ :) [08:48] does anyone know if vmware-workstation uses more resources than vmware-server? everyime I resume the windows VM on ubuntu it takes so long to start up i can make coffee, bake a cake and eat it and still wait. [08:48] hossam: dpkg might give you errors that it depends on something....what you do when that happens is to apt-get -f install [08:48] whats the best way to backup ubuntu [08:48] !backup | luddite [08:48] and test it [08:48] luddite: There are many ways to back your system up. Here's a few: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BackupYourSystem , https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DuplicityBackupHowto , https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HomeUserBackup , https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MondoMindi - See also !sbackup and !cloning [08:48] luddite: reverse lights [08:48] hossam: and all the packages will be downloaded that is needed from the repos [08:48] * luddite reverses over rip_ [08:48] lmao [08:48] rww: tanks :) [08:49] hey, look, the bot has had an extra t [08:50] I have problem in installing ubuntu 8.1 for dual boot [08:50] grub does'nt show option for ubuntu [08:50] use Super Grub Disk [08:51] Fuzzy:and where do I get it? [08:51] scizzo-, yup its all good now, thanks. i didnt know dpkg and aptitude were so tight =] [08:51] NTAuthority, in the name? u-bot-tu instead of u-bot-u [08:51] Hi all, my login in gnome takes up to 30 seconds, i already disabled all startup programs in 'session' menu. How can i find out what is causing the slow login? [08:51] shear: the mogrify/convert hint you gave earlier is working, thanks! [08:51] ommya: http://www.supergrubdisk.org/ [08:52] Fuzzy:are you sure this would solve my problem? [08:52] binarymutant: yep === sleepy_cat is now known as dragon_flam [08:52] aptitude uses dpkg.....there might be a way to send the package to aptitude so that the program will then read from that...otherwise I would suggest you look at the apt-get or apt manual for more information [08:53] ommya: I had the same problem, that disc will add ubuntu to your grub menu [08:53] Fuzzy:Thanks a lot ..I was struggling for this for about a month with around 3-4 attempts [08:53] ommya: What is your other OS? [08:54] how do you use ssh to copy files to your own system? [08:54] jedi06: scp [08:54] lftp? [08:54] get/put [08:54] ommya: what Fuzzy is suggesting is very effective and will definitely work, but i'll just say it can be a bit confusing to use. go slow and read what it says [08:57] anyway to convert a deb (logitech squeezecenter) to install on a ppc machine (playstation3)? [08:57] Thanks! sexcopter [08:58] Hello folks. As soon I start Pidgin and login (MSN) I receive a few offline messages and it does not respond. Does anyone know this and/or has a solution to this? [08:58] The interface does not respond that is [08:58] hossam: no, the software needs to be compiled for that architecture [08:58] jtaji, yea was figuring as much, mebbe hoping for some crazy emulation, thanks [08:58] hossam: deb is just an archive... i'm scared program compiled inside for another architecture... for x86... it will not run on ppc [08:59] Elecktra, ill have to petition to the squeezecenter devs, thanks =] [08:59] znh: bug in 2.5.3, try a 2.5.4 package [09:00] does anyone know of a nifty program that will take a bunch of pngs and make a pdf (one png per page)? [09:00] NTAuthority, so it's a known bug. Could you give me directions how to install that package instead? [09:00] znh: getdeb.com provides recent pidgin packages, AFAIK :) [09:01] I don't like installing foreign packages, it's a production server how strange that may sound [09:01] are there any other decent MSN clients other than pidgin? [09:02] !msn | znh This should give you a few to pick from [09:02] znh This should give you a few to pick from: The Instant Messenger Client Pidgin (formerly Gaim) (http://help.ubuntu.com/community/Pidgin) supports MSN, XMPP (Jabber, GTalk and variants), AIM, Gadu-Gadu, Novell Groupwise, ICQ, YIM, IRC and others. See also !Kopete [09:02] znh: well.. start pidgin from console... and connect only 1 service... msn [09:02] znh: you could compile a pidgin 2.5.4 package yourself :p btw, GUI apps on a server? [09:02] #ubuntu-it [09:03] people, do msn support offline messages? last time i was using it.. it wasn't support that functions... [09:03] NTAuthority, yes, NX terminal service [09:03] Elecktra, i get offline msgs [09:03] znh: oops, forgot, run one myself :p [09:03] Elecktra: yes it does. not sure if your client needs to, but the protocol now does. [09:03] Elecktra: since the WLM 8.0 client protocol it's supported [09:03] NTAuthority, o really [09:04] Out_Cold, ChronosZA: a year ago it wasn't :) [09:04] well i offline all the time now Elecktra [09:04] Elecktra: it is relatively new, i dont remember it working a long time ago. [09:05] My taskbar just disappeared [09:05] the bar with all the running programs ion it [09:05] anyone know how i can get it back?

[09:06] NTAuthority, welll it's already hard to trust deb packages as they're often maintained by anonymous people [09:06] Out_Cold: is this an ethernet connection? [09:06] znh: and you do trust 'Ubuntu MOTU Maintainers' :) [09:07] ziroday, no... but i don't seem to have a wlan connection [09:07] ubottu, what is ultimate ubuntu 2.0? [09:07] I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) [09:07] :'( [09:07] I still am not getting Pidgin to run through Tor [09:07] ubottu bite me :) [09:07] Sorry, I don't know anything about bite me :) [09:07] does anyone elswe know? [09:07] ziroday, yet i'm not connected with a ethernet.. [09:07] a link [09:07] NTAuthority, MOTU? [09:07] Out_Cold: sorry, what exactly are you trying to do? [09:07] google for ultimate ubuntu [09:08] but that doesnt matter cuz its just ubuntu 8.10 [09:08] but the taskbar is gone :) [09:08] znh: you don't even check the maintainer lines? team that manages the 'universe' repository [09:08] Fuzzy: as soon as firefox decides to respond i would love to...

[09:09] trying to get going in shell?? [09:09] gmathews: I am back, how did you go. [09:09] znh: compile one yourself, and probably even look through the source code line by line :) [09:09] znh: pidgin is the only one in main [09:09] Out_Cold: right, well wifi isn't the easiest thing to setup from the command line :). Ethernet is easier. [09:10] neil_d: It updated according to that paste..but it is not there in grub... I am confused [09:10] ziroday, yea i figured so... it's been a daunting task so far... i can switch to CLI after i have logged into a gui, but w/o is a huge pain. [09:11] gmathews: did you look in /boot/grub/menu.lst to see if it was there? [09:11] neil_d: yep and it is not there. ;/ [09:11] i was hoping for something simple like the auto in network manager [09:11] I am using vmplayer to run an instance of ubuntu server, is there a way of changed consoles like without using ? [09:12] gmathews: copy another and change its number [09:12] Out_Cold: nothing like that exists AFAIK [09:13] neil_d: what do u mean by that [09:13] yea.... well i suppose i'll keep learning the wlan setup.. [09:13] Out_Cold: does the wifi network have encryption on it? [09:13] yea [09:13] WEP [09:13] 10 digit hex [09:14] Out_Cold: okay, well you will have to edit /etc/network/interfaces [09:14] why would 00:06.0 Multimedia audio controller: Cirrus Logic CS 4614/22/24/30 [CrystalClear SoundFusion Audio Accelerator] (rev 01) have no sound in 8.04? [09:14] and add something along the lines of 'auto ifup wlan0' 'something else' [09:15] Hi there.. Anyone have any idea why the windows aren't shown in one of the panel bars anymore? [09:15] gmathews: using gksudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst open the file for editing, copy an section for a kernel that is there, and change the number to the kernel you want and save the file. [09:15] Out_Cold: see http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/setting-up-an-network-interfaces-file/ [09:15] Caesi: is the window on a different workspace? [09:15] no [09:15] ziroday: it's on the same [09:16] will read into that, thanks ziroday [09:16] wht bout the 'root=UUID=22c51a1a-122a-4f37-b761-1b65d3c90ffb ro quiet splash' part neil_d sure that is different for both the kernels [09:16] Hi, I cannot modify file in a peer-to-peer Samba sharing from a PC but I can from another. I have in every case 8.04 LTS [09:16] i always find it hard to find the exact stuff i'm looking for [09:16] Caesi: you're using gnome and gnome-panels I presume? Is there any specific apps? [09:16] Out_Cold: I can tell you know, its not simple [09:16] Caesi: do you see any running apps at all? or are just some of them not visible? [09:16] yea i know too lol [09:16] yes I am.. nop, no specific app.. I can see the apps if I alt-tab them [09:17] just not in the "task bar" so to speak [09:17] gmathews: not unless the two kernels are on different drives that part should be identical. [09:17] Caesi: try right clicking on the panel and select "+Add to panel" [09:17] Caesi: try adding a "window list" [09:17] Slart: got it, thanks :) [09:17] okay they are on the same drive - I will try that and reboot in a bit [09:18] thanks neil_d :) [09:18] neil_d: hey are on the same drive - I will try that and reboot in a bitsplash [09:18] I can enter the shared directory in a peer-to-peer LAN with 8.04 but I cannot open documents [09:18] Open Office starts but doesn't show the document [09:19] Stefano: sounds like a permissions problem [09:19] Slart, yes. But with a PC I can connect [09:19] Slart, one can the other no [09:20] * Administrator jumps [09:20] Stefano: try watching the server logs and see if the machines do something differently [09:20] Administrator: do you have a question we can help you with? [09:21] Slart, i've tried lanching from terminal but I don't receive anyt error from command line [09:21] Slart, I look in server now [09:21] Stefano: what permissions are the files? === Administrator is now known as ChinaBoy [09:22] Stefano: there might be a "verbose" switch/setting you can try, to make it more chatty [09:22] Hi all....I'm trying to watch DVDs under Ubuntu and I've enabled DVD playback via the install-css script and required packages, but whenever I try to watch the movie in VLC it never loads, or acts as if i's trying to load and then quits, and if I load it in mplayer it does the same thing. If I load a single .VOB in mplayer it skips around the movie as if in really fast fast forward....any ideas? [09:23] hey everyone i just got done shrinking my vista partition to make a new one for ubuntu so i can do the full install now the new partition is "Unallocated" what does that mean? how do i make it to where i can use this partition able for use by ubuntu? [09:23] Marupa: the dvds work everywhere else? [09:23] ziroday, under windows, yes. [09:23] ziroday, read/write for everyone [09:23] GeffIsLegend: unallocated means there is nothing on it. You can tell ubuntu (when installing) to install itself to the free space which is the unallocated space [09:23] GeffIsLegend: unallocated just means that it's empty space...the ubuntu installer will create a new partition in that empty space [09:24] Slart, ok i've got something [09:24] cenvert forced File system after insert windows cd .... help me... [09:24] hey guys, whats yout fav audio playback app in ubuntu?? [09:24] !best > Wunderbar [09:24] Wunderbar, please see my private message [09:24] abcdef: could you at least form a proper question [09:24] Wunderbar: audacious [09:24] Marupa: okay, you certain you have libdvdread3 installed and run the script? [09:24] Wunderbar: I use quodlibet at the moment.. aplay is nice too .. or audacious [09:25] ziroday, yes. [09:25] Slart, smbd/sec_ctx.c:set_ctx(241) [09:25] setting sec ctx (,0) - sec_ctx_stack_ndx = 0 [09:25] Slart, don't have idea.... [09:25] Ive been using audacios and quod libet too... [09:25] but there still is no options for me to choose in step 4 of 7 where i have to use a partition to use, its still blank, as before [09:25] Marupa: okay, can you start totem in the terminal and look out for any errors? [09:25] Slart, it returns when start with openoffice [09:25] Stefano: huh? that's an error message? just looks like random weirdo pseudo code to me.. never seen that before [09:26] failed to read next DVD block. Error: Error reading from DVD. [09:26] Slart, nor me.... [09:26] Wunderbar: what u didn't like in audacious so? [09:26] Marupa: okay, you have gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly installed? [09:26] ziroday, yes [09:27] I wish there was a way to update my 'library' in audacious similar to the way that quod libet does automatically [09:27] Marupa: tried setting/changing your region [09:27] ok...that was weird. [09:27] although technically speaking audacious doesn't have a library [09:27] I ejected/reinserted...and now it's working. [09:27] Marupa: glad to hear it :) [09:28] very weird though [09:28] thanks for the help! [09:28] for step 4 of 7 of my ubuntu installation, it says "no root file system defined" but it wont allow me to select ANY partitions, not even the unallocated one. [09:28] Wunderbar: at least.. i can make images of my music cd collections with cdparania and use cue+flac with audacious.. but cue plugin sure have bug, it does not display time of each track correctly... but i don't matter [09:28] GeffIsLegend: are you using the automated partition thingy? [09:29] do i have to do something to the blank partition in gparted? [09:29] GeffIsLegend: are you doing manual or automated installation? [09:29] lost linux partitions after inserted MS windows install cd? [09:29] GeffIsLegend: err partitioning [09:29] i would guess manual sense i have to shrink the vista space on my own and stuff [09:30] GeffIsLegend: well what does your hard drive partition table look like now? Do you have unallocated space? [09:30] i shrunk 20gb of my hard drive to make a new partition for ubuntu its self [09:30] I am trying to launch an Adobe Air application from the command line, in gnome I just double click it and it runs, but when I do $ ./airapp.air in bash nothing happens [09:30] GeffIsLegend: right, and gparted marks that as unallocated? [09:31] yes i have gparted open now, and one of them is UNALLOCATED, so is the Filesystem, can that be a problem? [09:31] netstat -lantp | grep -i smb returns something like this: [09:31] tcp 16 0 192.168.1.60:42606 192.168.1.3:139 ESTABLISHED 5308/gvfsd-smb-brow [09:31] tcp 5 0 192.168.1.60:34538 192.168.1.3:139 CLOSE_WAIT 5308/gvfsd-smb-brow [09:31] GeffIsLegend: have you run the installer yet? [09:31] Help me!! lost linux partitions [09:31] yes, i have that up as well [09:31] hi [09:31] abcdef: slow down and explain your problem please :) [09:31] GeffIsLegend: right, close gparted and then go back in the installer to retrigger a hard drive scan [09:32] okay ill try that now [09:33] GeffIsLegend: you should then be see an option that says "Use the largest continuous free space" select that. [09:34] nope, its still blank :( [09:35] GeffIsLegend: you are on this https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GraphicalInstall#Select%20a%20Disk screen right? [09:35] what is the log file I can check when I try to open a file to a Samba share? [09:35] Stefano: samba logs in /var/log/samba [09:35] ziroday, after doing some more digging, i believe this is more along my lines... http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=12045 [09:36] but thanks for the direction.. [09:36] Hi all. In pidgin, in the "Join chat" window, I want my IRC account (there's only one) to be the account that's selected by default. How do I go about that? [09:36] Out_Cold: that will work too, its just less in depth then the article I gave you before :) [09:36] when I mount things with sshfs, I get "fusermount: mount failed: Cannot allocate memory" [09:36] what's up with that? [09:36] Ziroday : Mine looks way different from that for some reason [09:36] ikonia, I have a lot of files there and looking at the file log.MY-MACHINE I don't see anything [09:37] yea... well less indepth is good for a scatter-brained individual such as myself [09:37] or, rather, how do I make sshfs mounting work? [09:37] Stefano: look at the ip address also and the overall samba log and syslog [09:37] ikonia, from a PC I can open and modify all documents of the share but I cannot from another [09:37] GeffIsLegend: what version of ubuntu are you installing? Also are you doing a manual partition or automatic partition? [09:37] ... I'm a member of group fuse, it's been working since $FOREVER. Could it be the new 2.6.27-11 kernel I just installed, I wonder [09:37] 8.10 === DGJones is now known as DJones [09:38] and im not sure about the partition [09:38] GeffIsLegend: do you have internet access? [09:38] yes [09:38] GeffIsLegend: can you take a screenshot and put it up on imagebin so I can see where you are? [09:38] yeah, 1min [09:38] Stefano: thats user or network share permissions then [09:39] m [09:39] When I double click on a file in nautilus is that the same as calling ./somefile from the command line? [09:39] ikonia, but I don't have put any samba user, nor for the PC that works fine [09:40] khmer42: if you are in that directory, yes [09:40] Stefano: the username you are connecting to the samba machine as must be "authorized" to use the share you want [09:40] going for the CLI reboot... hope this works [09:41] hello [09:41] ikonia, I use the force user and force group options in the samba share [09:41] Out_Cold: you can also do sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart [09:41] ikonia, and it works for a new pc [09:41] Stefano: then look at the logs [09:41] yea ziroday but i still have the gui up.... [09:41] do you know the open source shop engine used to develop https://shop.canonical.com/ ? [09:41] Stefano: as I said it sounds like user or network share permissions [09:41] <_tote_> exit [09:41] <_tote_> ja [09:41] lau: contact canonical [09:42] is Lau Danish?? [09:42] Ziroday : Mind if i put it on imageshack? imagebin is confusing me. [09:42] ikonia: is it for licencing purpose? [09:42] apparently not [09:42] Wunderbar: no [09:42] lau: contact canonical [09:42] GeffIsLegend: anywhere is fine [09:43] Hi guys, how do I make gconf-editor appear in my gui ...I mean as a program in Ubuntu 8.10 versus it running in the terminal. [09:43] ikonia, I really don't find anything in the log :-( [09:43] Stefano: which log are you looking at [09:44] RPS: gksudo gconf-editor launches it here [09:44] well that worked well.. [09:44] screw gnome [09:45] screw gnome? what the eff... [09:45] well Ziroday, I uploaded it on imagebin, but its not showing up [09:45] who needs a GUI with fancy smansy irssi and lynx? [09:45] GeffIsLegend: ? [09:45] Out_Cold: I concurr [09:45] ezerhoden: dude gconf-editor dont need to be run as root [09:46] tomodachi: now all i gotta do is figure it all out lol [09:46] like i searched for it, but its not there :-/ is there a different website i can use for linux based uploads [09:46] GeffIsLegend: err its the url of the image. [09:46] GeffIsLegend: as in when you submitted it, it would take you to a new page with your picture. [09:46] bigbrova2: your right [09:46] hello, I want to restart inetd but there is no /etc/init.d/inetd file ... ??? any ideas? I'm runnign 8.10 [09:47] i am ultimitely looking to just carry a flash drive with a ssh client so i can just use a server to do my business... [09:47] Out_Cold: soon, GNU screen will be your favorite window manager ;-) [09:47] i know but after i uploaded it , it didnt take my to any new pages [09:47] GeffIsLegend: no worries, just explain what you see currently [09:47] GeffIsLegend: does it say manual anywhere? [09:47] WM?? i'm trying to ditch the managers [09:47] nope [09:47] GeffIsLegend: did you hit "Manually edit partition table" option? [09:48] Out_Cold: but then how are you going to switch between irssi and lynx? O_o [09:48] GeffIsLegend: does it look like https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GraphicalInstall?action=AttachFile&do=get&target=6.png ? [09:48] ikonia, sorry. I'm looking at all files in /var/log/samba [09:48] Out_Cold: ... and if you like those two, you're gonna' love mutt ;-) [09:48] CQ: I think you are looking for xinetd [09:48] CQ: not inetd [09:48] no its in the gparted format [09:48] jonaskoelker: control + alt + F# [09:48] Stefano: look at the syslog [09:48] scizzo-: isn't there either... [09:48] ezerhoden: but then you need to be root to have more than $N windows open [09:48] jonaskoelker: i was using different sessions lol.... i suppose this WM may be of use yet lol [09:48] and tried mutt too [09:49] jonaskoelker: no [09:49] Out_Cold: lol :D [09:49] something is bound to the IMAP port even thout netstat -an doesn't list it... [09:49] ezerhoden: :-? [09:49] though [09:49] ezerhoden: do go on [09:49] CQ: not that I know what you have done with the system but xinetd is standard === phantomcircuit_ is now known as phantomcircuit [09:50] CQ: in either case you can use lsof or netstat -ntpa to list them a bit more [09:50] scizzo- nothing, it's a clean isntall from a few days ago... [09:50] GeffIsLegend: okay, you have hit manual partition. Can you go back? [09:50] jonaskoelker: what are you saying, to be in a tty you have to be root? [09:50] hey guys [09:50] CQ: then I do not believe that /etc/init.d/ does not contain xinetd or inetd [09:50] ezerhoden: no, I'm saying that C-M-F[1-6] only lets you have 6 open windows [09:50] if I recompile xrandr from ubuntu sources, then the mode changing with ID does not work, with ubuntu binary xrandr it works [09:50] ezerhoden: or rather, terminal sessions [09:50] no , it wont let me, ill just restart the installer [09:51] http://pastebin.com/m4a02d55b [09:51] ezerhoden: what if I want to run 10 different apps? [09:51] all of a sudden, my ubuntu started shutting down automatically when it boots [09:51] what could cause that? [09:51] just before it gets to the login screen [09:51] jonaskoelker: then you fire up screen [09:51] scizzo-: I have a /usr/bin/update-inetd file... [09:51] CQ: its to me not logical if you have not installed another service handling it [09:51] I checked with ldd, they are using same libs [09:51] it starts shutdown procedure and reserve progress bar [09:51] ezerhoden: ^_^ [09:51] scizzo-: isn't logical to me either... [09:51] was nix always multi session? [09:51] maye the good old reboot will solve it... [09:51] GeffIsLegend: okay. Make sure to not click Manual partitioning [09:52] Ziroday: the step before that is just asking about my keyboard layout. [09:52] but is there no /etc/init.d/xinetd script or the like?? [09:52] Out_Cold: since the first release: maybe. Probably [09:52] CQ: have you checked [09:52] ? [09:52] Out_Cold: before that, when /vmunix could alternate between printing A's and B's... probably not :D [09:52] oh the places you'll go with nix....

[10:10] for instance /home/me/somedir/ is a symlink to /media/somedir/ now when I type /home/me/somedi, it get's completed to /home/me/somedir not /home/me/somedir/ [10:11] help [10:11] GeffIsLegend: yep, do you see this https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GraphicalInstall#Select%20a%20Disk step before that? [10:11] help me [10:11] oCean_: is there a way to solve this? [10:11] ziroday, will check out basket [10:11] SmokeyD: i think as its a file (the symlink is a file) it won't add the / for you [10:11] ActionParsnip1: am guessing libncurses5-dev ? === rj_x is now known as rj_x|away [10:11] SmokeyD: I guess not [10:11] timahvo1: apt-cache search curses | grep lib [10:11] no, for some reason my installation layout is completely different from these screenshots you've been showing me [10:12] timahvo1: or read the dependancies for what you need [10:12] abcdef: with what? [10:12] oCean_, ActionParsnip1: there would be no way to work around this somehow? It is very annoying if you use the shell a lot [10:12] ActionParsnip1: cheers. Lemmie try that then get back to you [10:12] ziroday, basket loks good but isnt there a gnome version? [10:12] GeffIsLegend: okay, and its odd that the buttons are all greyed out. Mind restarting the computer and therefore restarting the install? [10:12] Pirate_Hunter: nope [10:13] SmokeyD: don't think so duder [10:13] Pirate_Hunter: gnome's answer is tomboy afaik [10:13] hello i have a windows xp that has remote desktop turn on, which program in ubuntu can connect to it? [10:13] ActionParsnip1: I've read the INSTALL file and I seem to have all the dependecies installed [10:13] SmokeyD: you could maybe find out how the symlinking works and add a / to the end by default in tab completion [10:13] yeah sure, ill be right back [10:13] ziroday, ahhh tomboy is good but not good enough in this case oh well [10:13] timahvo1: then your compile option is incorrect [10:13] SmokeyD: nope. I use shell/tab completion all the time, it's something you have to work with, i guess [10:13] use rdesktop [10:13] timahvo1: its one or the other [10:13] to connect to the windows xp [10:14] does anyone know what can cause a realy slow login in gnome? [10:14] oCean_, ActionParsnip1: ok thanks [10:14] ActionParsnip1: you are always here helping people by the way. Do you actually get round to anything else :) [10:14] ActionParsnip1: am just running a python install script. no configure options or anything like that [10:14] SmokeyD: sometimes, credit runch an all that :D [10:14] ActionParsnip1: :S [10:15] timahvo1: they you are missing a dep, go search out a guide, you may have missed a dep [10:15] ActionParsnip1: credit crunch sucks. Doesn't affect me yet fortunately [10:15] ActionParsnip1: ty [10:15] SmokeyD: im out a fair bit, maybe you catch me on [10:15] ActionParsnip1: let you know how I do :) [10:16] timahvo1: it might also be worthwhile making sure that you have build-essentials installed and asking the canto devs [10:17] ziroday: yes I have build-essentials and everything the INSTALL txt saysit depends on which isn't a whole lot [10:18] timahvo1: including the -dev packages? [10:19] ziroday: I have the python-dev headers as well as ncurses dev headers and afaik thats all I need [10:19] aloha [10:19] timahvo1: then if I were you I would ask the canto devs [10:19] ziroday: :p [10:20] hey Ziroday, I'm restarted now [10:20] ziroday: best idea yet :) [10:20] GeffIsLegend: right, go through the installation and make sure to avoid manual partition like the plauge [10:20] timahvo1: do I get I prize ;) [10:21] ziroday: only if you are as helpful in helping me install ubuntu on my cig lighter which I plan to do next ;) [10:22] Ziroday- There is no option for if i want it to be manual or automatic, It goes from Step-1:Language Step-2:Timezone Step-3:Keyboard Layout then Step-4:Partitioning [10:22] heh, the ubuntu server survey document was written using Adobe Distiller for Macintosh :) [10:22] How can I make a website address like such: 425.245.245.245/~user/ act like a top level domain, meaning rewrite it so that doing a $_SERVER["HTTP_HOST"] includes /~user? [10:22] GeffIsLegend: and is the partitioning section buttons all greyed out [10:23] quick question, the update-grub script. How can I make it NOT put in that annoying "recovery mode" section? I removed everything from altoptions= in menu.lst (leaving it blank) and this simply adds a second kernel entry exactly as the first [10:23] Yes, Partitioning is all greyed out [10:23] I delete the alloptions= line and it readds it when running update-grub so obviously this too, isn't the method [10:23] This is new ground for me, but there must be a way... Reason I ask is that I have to setup a test server right now and before I point the name servers over, I need to thoroughly test... But the code is not at all portable and I want to fix some of the global variables they use [10:23] GeffIsLegend: well then I have no clue. Try the alternate CD perhaps [10:23] apport has a crash recovery but it is for a none official package [10:23] how can i get the information in the .crash file? [10:23] phantomcircuit: right? [10:23] Akiv1: poor coding then [10:24] phantomcircuit: ls -l /var/crash/ [10:24] Well i created the new partition while in Windows Vista, Can that be the problem? I can make a new partition in Ubuntu and see if that works? [10:24] ActionParsnip: I couldn't agree more, but right now thatis not the point [10:24] after logging in i get a brown blank screen === tyler is now known as Guest96548 [10:24] savvas, yeah but what is the format of a .crash file? [10:24] GeffIsLegend: windows partitions are not linux partitions [10:24] so that could be the issue yes [10:24] (they're labeled differently) [10:24] phantomcircuit: text file I think, try: file /var/crash/yourfile.crash [10:24] GeffIsLegend: you shouldn't need to make a new partition. The space can just be left as unallocated. In a terminal what does sudo fdisk -l output? [10:24] urhhg so thats the problem then [10:25] GeffIsLegend: you could try to just use fdisk [10:25] and use the l option to change label I think [10:25] whats fdsik [10:25] hrm [10:25] *Fdisk [10:25] !info fdisk [10:25] Package fdisk does not exist in intrepid [10:25] robf: the space is marked as unallocated. [10:25] !fdisk [10:25] Sorry, I don't know anything about fdisk [10:25] ziroday: oh? [10:25] GeffIsLegend: its a command. Just run sudo fdisk -l [10:25] ziroday: now that makes a load of nonsense =\s [10:25] GeffIsLegend: its a partitioning application [10:25] ActionParsnip: it's THE partitioning utility.... [10:26] util-linux: /sbin/fdisk [10:26] anything else has too much superfluous crappo [10:26] robf: hmm? He said the space was marked as unallocated in gparted and such. There would be no label on it then [10:26] robf: its not, try cfdisk or gparted [10:26] ziroday: I missed that part when I came in [10:26] should i link you think i pastebin ziroday? [10:26] anyone [10:26] ActionParsnip: too much graphics === fw1 is now known as incorrect [10:26] GeffIsLegend: please pastebin [10:26] robf: both are on your system, cfdisk is standard and used in gentoo at install time [10:26] robf: cant get much less gfx than that [10:26] ActionParsnip: no it isn't [10:27] fdisk is [10:27] which one to install Virtual machine or virtual server? I dc just no so i afraid i missed the answer [10:27] I'm a gentoo user =s [10:27] savvas, lol yeah a text file with a 30MB base64'd coredump in it [10:27] I know the handbook inside and out, unless they updated it to use cfdisk for some reason === mcasadevall is now known as NCommander [10:27] in the fdisk man page, it recommends using cfdisk :) [10:27] used to be [10:27] weird [10:27] ezerhoden: haha ace [10:27] phantomcircuit: still, a text file. do: head -n 100 /var/crash/yourfile.crash [10:27] ActionParsnip: maybe on x86 I always use amd64 and the install docs differ [10:27] phantomcircuit: it will show you the first 100 lines of that line [10:28] here is a quote ' fdisk is a buggy program that does fuzzy things - usu‐ [10:28] ally it happens to produce reasonable results.' [10:28] http://w2.eff.org/IP/broadcastflag/cookbook/cfdisk.png [10:28] robf: true, i use varying archs [10:28] Ziroday - http://pastebin.com/m67a1edc7 [10:29] ActionParsnip: at least I didn't suggest he use sfdisk [10:29] I'm not a complete anal retentive should chip. [10:29] GeffIsLegend: okay so the disk is detected. However there is no unallocated space on it from what I can see [10:29] ziroday: it's id 7 [10:30] he needs it to be 82 [10:30] as i said me thinks. [10:30] 1min , theres a screeny comin at ya [10:30] robf: ive always used cfdisk / fdisk, i'll check sfdisk === Lanlost is now known as Lanlost|ZzZ [10:30] ActionParsnip: don't...and thats a stout warning ;) [10:30] robf: feel free to give out your advice to GeffIsLegend [10:31] haha [10:31] I've got a issue with sysklogd not restarting after logrotate has rotated the drupal log file... any idea's? [10:31] ziroday: well just saying if he as he stated already, made the partition from vista, it is going to be ID 7 as it is, linuxy things don't like that when dealing with trying to format them [10:31] ActionParsnip: seriously sfdisk is a death trap [10:31] robf: well I have no idea how to change it, you can take the lead if you want [10:32] hey guys, here ya go , look for yourself http://imagebin.ca/view/c3uHif.html [10:32] robf: i can do what i need with cfdisk etc. Its cool. Just fun to check alternatives and how they differ [10:32] ziroday: fdisk /dev/sda , t [2] , 83 [10:32] ActionParsnip: trust me when I say sfdisk is no alternative [10:33] GeffIsLegend, what are you trying to do? [10:33] ActionParsnip: think of it as manually partitioning your drive [10:33] manually.... not "manually" in the fdisk sense.. [10:33] Do a full install of Ubuntu, but when i get to step 4 of 7 there is no partitions for me to select to install on [10:33] GeffIsLegend: do this [10:33] GeffIsLegend: get you a terminal up [10:33] kk [10:33] sudo fdisk /dev/sda [10:34] then press the l key [10:34] see 83? thats linux partition, currently its 7 (ntfs) [10:34] need some help installing an intel graphics driver on this laptop [10:34] so hit t, then choose the partition you're gonna install linux on, (2) and type in 83 [10:34] robf: well it is an alternative, just not an advised one :) [10:35] ! intel [10:35] Sorry, I don't know anything about intel [10:35] ActionParsnip: heh true. you only should use it if you want hot command line partitioning action [10:35] robf: oh i love cli [10:35] ActionParsnip: no [10:35] lol [10:35] robf, whats that command? a l? as in L [10:35] you don't love it [10:35] robf: if there is some space unallocated, he could delete the 2nd partition and re-create it, using all the space.. [10:35] GeffIsLegend: you needn't hit l, just press t [10:35] actionparsnip: you know anything about installling graphics drivers? [10:35] l just lists labels [10:35] srx2002: what video card [10:35] intel 945 [10:36] you need to ID partition 2 as 83 GeffIsLegend [10:36] robf: yeah its what i do all my file manipulation / extraction with. Mouse is for games and web browsing [10:36] ActionParsnip: me too ... === shally871 is now known as shally87 [10:36] except for games [10:36] adom <3 [10:36] who needs a mouse [10:36] Partition number (1-8): 83 [10:36] Value out of range. [10:36] My wifi is working but where is the device file for wlan0? I can't find eth0 device file either under 8.10? [10:36] noooo [10:36] srx2002: http://zavizionov.blogspot.com/2007/09/howto-ubuntu-intel-945-widescreen.html [10:36] GeffIsLegend: partition 2 [10:37] GeffIsLegend: then id is 83 [10:37] oh ok [10:37] robf: helps with warzone2100 ;) [10:37] xf86-video-intel-2.6.0.tar.bz2 I just downloaded that driver from the intel web site,,,but I'm not that good with the command line stuff [10:37] ubuntu rockz [10:37] ActionParsnip: emerge adom or apt-get install adom...if its in the sources [10:37] !info adom [10:37] Package adom does not exist in intrepid [10:37] :( [10:37] ancient domains of mystery [10:37] a rather in depth rogue like [10:38] robf: play penumbra too, its badass [10:38] GeffIsLegend: once you've done that press "p" to ensure the partition is now id 83 [10:38] I dont want my normal users (non-admin/non-suders) to get the update notification and not the "you need to restart your system" reminder either [10:38] and then hit w to write the new table [10:38] Is it possible to turn off? [10:38] Appiah: yes just disable it :p [10:38] I forget where that menu is [10:38] so I have to disable it for all then [10:38] but its somewhere cos I just did it like 5 min ago when I installed this thing [10:38] srx2002: you already have a decent enough driver in a package which is installed by default, just needs some xorg.conf confi [10:38] uehrm [10:38] I dunno [10:39] I'm sure there is a default config [10:39] I mean if you add a user it gets its user's config from somewhere [10:39] ... [10:39] GeffIsLegend: you ok there? [10:39] hey robf it should give me a list up to like 88 or somethin right? [10:39] Action: actually My screen resolution is fine...I'm just having some problems with rendering 3d images..like Globe or google earth programs [10:39] huh [10:39] Anybody understand network device files in 8.10 and where they are? ie how to access with cli? [10:39] GeffIsLegend: define it [10:39] "it" [10:40] regular movies and things seem to run fine [10:40] uhmm im confused, 1min [10:40] srx2002: thats where you need the drivers for [10:40] i figure it could be driver related [10:40] srx2002: video isnt 3d so a fast enough pc can render the image [10:40] ok [10:40] so how do i give 83 the ID Geffislegend ? whats the command [10:40] you said it gives you some stuff [10:40] srx2002: check the link and update your xorg.conf, then restart x [10:40] and I dunno what it nor the stuff is [10:41] GeffIsLegend: press t [10:41] choose 2 [10:41] type 83 [10:41] press p [10:41] robf: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. [10:41] shut up foolbot. [10:41] ok...will try it...should I uses the latest driver I downloaded instead of the one on that url? [10:41] You tell it robbo! [10:41] robf, use a single line, it moans less [10:41] ActionParsnip: I wanted to be concise and distinct for geff... [10:42] a single line seems confusing when using a buncha one key commands for em [10:42] robf: use commas or large spaces [10:42] s [10:42] I cant seem to be able to install phpmyadmin as php5-mcrypt wont be installed, I tried installing it by its own but it depends on libltdl3 (>=1.5.2-2) which is not installable, so how can i get phpmyadmin on my system? [10:42] ya ya... ya.... I know... in the future I shall [10:42] GeffIsLegend: before you do anything after those steps, paste the output of "p" for me k? [10:43] robf: just suggesting [10:43] I know I'm just kidding anyhow [10:43] http://sial.org/pbot/34857 GeffIsLegend should look something like this...although no exactly [10:43] robf has all your newline [10:43] well "P" isnt making anything show up :-/ [10:43] don't use a big p [10:43] use a little one [10:44] GeffIsLegend: look at my paste, thats how to do it ;) [10:44] i am [10:44] ohok [10:44] don't quit it yet though , I wanna see your output from p, before you write it out don't want you blowing soemthing up [10:45] oh ok i got it, 1min im going to pastebin now [10:45] okie doke [10:45] http://sial.org/pbot/34858.

[10:46] Linux Magazine + Ubuntu 8.10 x64 DVD = all your base are belong to us :D --> I spent so much time looking for a good 64 bit distro then I checked my local newsstand. ;) [10:46] meh, I'm outta hobnobs... woe is me [10:46] yeah , my main partition , not my recovery lol [10:46] well I mean sda2 is gonna be the linuxy stuff [10:47] gday [10:47] yeah [10:47] if this is so, now press "w" [10:47] and then q [10:47] and try again [10:47] try the install again? [10:47] sure [10:47] it shouldn't complain now [10:47] just dblclick the partition assign it a partition . [10:47] hah cool , 1min lemme check it out [10:47] selam [10:47] er a thingy, wtf they call it mountpoint [10:47] yeh [10:48] I dunno ubuntu installer is semi insane to me. it does weird things in guided... just use manual. makes mom happy. [10:48] still blank:[ [10:48] oh nvm [10:48] horrific [10:48] oh now it works? [10:48] or no [10:48] it says The kernel still uses the old table. [10:48] The new table will be used at the next reboot. [10:48] Syncing disks. [10:49] hah [10:49] so i shall brb ^^ [10:49] you on live? [10:49] yeah haha [10:49] GeffIsLegend: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.

If this is happening now, just relax and enjoy the show. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Netsplit [10:49] should be able to resync [10:49] just umount the disks that are up [10:49] ziroday: hey sorted :D [10:49] I spose you can do that then [10:49] reboot [10:49] lol [10:49] hii [10:49] what happend there [10:49] Apocalypse! Armageddon! Teh internets is dying! [10:50] lol [10:50] run!!!!!!! [10:50] that was weird [10:50] geff, this one line from your paste does so amaze men though...what exactly were you doing [10:50] Partition number (1-4): ID Partition 2 as Geffislegend [10:50] i have an old laptop i need to recover some data off.. so i was planning on loading ubuntu up on a cd and copying the data that way. via a network.. [10:50] mass internet cencership [10:50] but its too old for ubuntu [10:50] mickeyd: lol [10:50] is there an older version i can? [10:50] mickeyd: use a slack boot disk [10:50] on floppies [10:51] I have 43 of them right here... in my "Archive" box of ancient things [10:51] it looks like I have a later driver installed [10:51] well one is boot, the rest just packages [10:51] mickeyd: if you don't need a gui, I suggest the gentoo minimal disc [10:52] hmm.. i think i need a gui for the networking part of it. [10:52] hardly... but it'd make things easier I spose [10:52] so ubuntu is relativiely new isnt it? [10:52] the minimal cd from gentoo wouldn't have nfs and all that crap on it [10:52] nor could you really install it [10:53] mickeyd: its relative... its based on debian which is an old crochety punter... [10:53] so yes and no. === Sant is now known as S4nt14g0 [10:53] well this laptop is only 4-5 years old... [10:53] Good morning folks, can anyone recommend a good video online for a new Ubuntu user with some how to stuff for the OS? I can navigate the system and install/launch programs, but I'm looking for something to give me some of the finer tricks within the OS like how to initiate cube view. [10:53] the easiest way would be to take out the hdd but the dick who owns it wont let me. [10:53] mikeshollen: video? [10:53] how do I make aliases for code? like for example, making "install" work like "sudo apt-get install"? :D [10:53] mikeshollen: just go read a tutorial [10:54] wers: in .bashrc [10:54] or whatever its called [10:54] or maybe in .bash_aliases [10:55] wers: don't alias commands to existing commands. 'install' is an existing command /usr/bin/install [10:55] wers: alias apt-get='sudo apt-get' should do it [10:55] stick that in .bashrc [10:55] ooh. thanks gust [10:55] *guys [10:55] so i make a .bashrc file? [10:55] problem wasnt fixed :-/ [10:56] mickeyd: I'd recommend crunchbang linux [10:56] this is really starting to tick me off, my computer is trash [10:56] hahaha [10:56] Whicjh is based on ubuntub but will run in 64MB RAM [10:56] what exactly is going on [10:56] I'm confused here geff [10:56] wers: you'll need to run: source ~/.bashrc to instate the new changes [10:56] here click on the installer ok? [10:56] kk [10:56] I'll take this to priv and walk ya through the manual [10:56] wers: the file is in ~/.bashrc [10:56] method. [10:56] nice [10:56] imma look at it. wait [10:56] mikeshollen: You want compiz control centre installed for that [10:57] I'm lost [10:57] mikeshollen: but you're gfx card needs to support 3D (glx) under Linux [10:57] ciao [10:57] !list [10:57] Hi! I'm #ubuntu's favorite infobot, you can search my brain yourself at http://ubottu.com/factoids.cgi - Usage info: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuBots [10:57] what is /usr/bin/install? i dont have it [10:58] mickeyd: As for the networking tool you want wicd, prob === Odo is now known as Guest99732 === _odo is now known as Odo [11:00] I looked at the xorg.conf...doesnt seem to say anything about Intel driver being used really [11:01] srx2002: thats why its not giving you full 3d, you need to edit the file (you'll need gksudo gedit or sudo nano) and add entrys similar to the site I gave you [11:01] Does anyone have any experience installing WoW on Ubuntu? [11:01] wers: /usr/bin/install is from coreutils, copying files and setting attribs [11:01] Hi! I'm on Intrepid and my VLC can play everything but when I try to save a stream, he says he has no MPEG encoder... what do I have to install for that?

However, when I try to use my webcam (Creative NX Pro) with Skype, the image is like a LSD trip, my face is green and the walls are purple.. In Hardy it was fine. With Cheese in intrepid it's also just fine, so I guess this bug is between the gspca driver and skype... [11:55] Hi all... under kubuntu I can't start a chat with Hamachi... The other host of the LAN use Windows... in my GUI there isn't any chat options, suggests? [11:55] it seems that ive got almost everything working and in order, except my sound card.

[12:00] How do I revert shortcut keys back to default when using the Keyboard shortcuts applet? [12:00] <_2> R34L1TY ok that one should be as simple as running "alsamixer" setting the controls to something reasonable, and then running "sudo alsactl store" [12:00] where do my web files go in apache2? [12:00] no ideas for the Hamachi problem? [12:01] I searched the bug database but could not find a bug about this. I would classify this as a bug as there is no obvious way of knowing how to revert shortcut keys back to default [12:01] yeah thats also what i tried for that too, and same problem there. I couldnt change the alsamixer to read anything other than my onboard sound [12:02] <_2> R34L1TY ah ok, address setting the default card and the other should take care of itself [12:03] Anyone know if this has been addressed before? [12:03] <_2> R34L1TY simple solution, "not advised if you dualboot and want to use the onboard" is to disable the onboard sound in the bios [12:04] oh, ive got ubuntu on a different computer. its the main OS, as windows restore CD's refuse to work any more [12:06] how to automatic share a disk on starting system?

[12:16] hello [12:16] <_2> heh, you saying that they just "forgot" to remove it from the blueprints for the new chips :))) [12:16] _2: kinda yeah [12:16] !hi | haptiK [12:16] haptiK: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu! [12:17] <_2> ActionParsnip ummm yes. the bridge itself uses an algarythm in the chip so there are cycles that pass through it. granted that the amount of resources used there would be negledigable scant but still exist. [12:18] poor george [12:18] Hi, what package do I need to install to have java in my firefox? [12:18] edgy: are you 32bit or 64bit linux? === bruno is now known as Guest30790 [12:19] ActionParsnip: 64bit [12:19] edgy: i'd suggest icedtea [12:20] <_2> i'm also wasting resources having 64bit hardware and running 32bit software on it. [12:20] Hi, can anyone help me with installing sunbird? [12:20] edgy: sudo apt-get install icedtea6-plugin [12:21] <_2> Caesi sudo apt-get install sunbird [12:21] ActionParsnip: this would install 100M of packages including openjdk! [12:21] _2: not if the software is only 32bit available [12:21] _2: that's not the newest version :( [12:21] !java | edgy [12:21] edgy: To install a Java runtime/interpreter on Ubuntu, look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java - For the Sun Java runtime install sun-java6-jre from the !Multiverse repository [12:21] I have the .tar.gz here, but I'm too stupid to install it :) [12:21] <_2> Caesi it's the newest version supported by ubuntu [12:22] <_2> !source [12:22] You can easily fetch a package's source with apt-get. See: http://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/apt-howto/ch-sourcehandling.en.html [12:22] Caesi: you should know what it is inside first [12:22] ActionParsnip: I already installed sun-java6-jre but openjdk is an alternative, no? [12:22] <_2> !b-e | Caesi this page might help [12:22] Caesi this page might help: Compiling software from source? Read the tips at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompilingSoftware (But remember to search for pre-built !packages first) [12:22] Felixonmars: well I unpacked it obviously [12:22] ActionParsnip: I thought sun's java would be better [12:22] k thanks [12:23] I tried to ./configure bla it, but not possible [12:23] Caesi: some errors occurred? [12:23] edgy: its only 32bit [12:23] How can I update or install Java? [12:23] <_2> probably bash: configure: command not found [12:24] Photoguy: same as everyother package [12:24] !java | Photoguy [12:24] Photoguy: To install a Java runtime/interpreter on Ubuntu, look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java - For the Sun Java runtime install sun-java6-jre from the !Multiverse repository [12:24] Photoguy: open the package manager, search for java and install it [12:24] ActionParsnip: aha! so SUN itself has no 64bit support and the open source community managed to do it?! [12:24] is ssl configured by default in ubuntu [12:24] _2: About the ISA bridge. I think it's mainly for backwards compatibility for like PCCards and USB hardware [12:24] Guest79506: ssl in what respect [12:24] could someone help me to change a file to these perms please: -rw-r--r-- [12:24] haptiK: chmod 644 yourfile [12:25] What do you think is the best version of Java? [12:25] Photoguy: it depends on what is the right version for you [12:25] <_2> Berserkur i understand that when touching software, but not concerning hardware that has isa bridge but no interface to it at all. [12:25] ikonia: I want to use ftp via ssl to get a file from my web server...the script works using ftp but not sftp [12:25] edgy: thanks alot for your help [12:25] Guest79506: then thats going to be ssl on your server not setup [12:25] edgy: pretty much, yes [12:26] ActionParsnip: what about this: http://java.com/en/download/linux_manual.jsp?locale=en&host=java.com [12:26] i have an issue when trying to mount my nokia N80 mobile as a device using obexfs - when i "ls" i see size equal to 0 what can i do? [12:26] ActionParsnip: there is 64-bit there [12:26] ikonia: the php script returns that it couldn't connect to me... [12:26] hello, does someone knows well ubuntu's boot process? If I boot ubuntu's kernel,initd,userland and do a hdparm -tT /dev/md1 the performances are ok...if I boot ubuntu's kernel,initd,and gentoo userland(stop at mounting /proc and gives me a shell) I've horible hdparm -tT /dev/md1 results...so what could be the difference between the 2 setup(what /sys or parameters are passed from userland?) [12:26] I am using Gajim. If I am using in addition Audacious and switch off Audacious, Gajim will no longer produce sounds. How to repair this? [12:26] edgy: sure, get the bin file and execute it in terminal [12:26] Guest79506: yes, your sever does not have an ftp server running that is ssl enabled [12:27] ikonia: can i get around that..the server is a shared host [12:27] ActionParsnip: so if there is a bin file why not a .deb in ubuntu? [12:27] Guest79506: you can install / configure ssh to use tls/ssl ? [12:27] Guest79506: sorry - ftp [12:27] <_2> BioNuc first check with df to see if the thing is mounted and the spaces that df reports. [12:27] any help regarding my bluetooth device mounted using obexfs showing a size of 0 while file sizes inside it is truely reflected [12:28] edgy: the jvm is in the repositories. There is no plugin from sun afaik [12:28] ikonia: how? [12:28] edgy: its a binary file, it hasnt been made into one. Just like the nvidia drivers from nvidia come in the same form [12:28] Guest79506: what ftp server are you running ? [12:28] hello .. sincce one hour the hard disk of my notebook is working continuously. so that i cant moove the mouse or type something .. how can i escape that ? === squiddy is now known as Guest33383 [12:28] df don't list my device [12:28] ikonia: not sure what the server is running. [12:28] ActionParsnip: execuse me but nvidia driver is closed source and this is the reason it's not packaged but java is open source [12:29] mrpurple: figure out what is accessing your disk using iotop for example? [12:29] edgy: you will need to chmod +x the file to make it executable [12:29] <_2> BioNuc using ls on the "mountpoint" will only return the size of the mountpoint, ignore it. see ls -sh / # for an example. [12:29] edgy: i neve said the java one was closed, i only said that its packaged similar, red what i type [12:29] *read [12:29] _2: You see. If some hardware wants to use ISA communication then the ISA bridge converts the signal from a PCI signal to a ISA signal and delivers the data to the OS [12:30] _2: If I understand the concept correctly [12:30] 8.0K BIONUC 0 cdrom 4.0K cdrom0 0 n80 4.0K sda3 4.0K sda4 4.0K sda6 28K windows 8.0K work [12:30] mrpurlpe, restart? [12:30] my mobile is n80 device [12:30] jrib: there is a key combination to let start it ? because like that i cannot do anything ... mouse is mooving sloowly and is not taking clicks [12:30] <_2> Berserkur ok, that makes perfect sense. they supply the bridge as a filter. thanks. [12:30] Guest79506: contact your hosting provider then, they can help [12:31] mrpurple: you can't use your keyboard to get to a tty or start a terminal? [12:31] ActionParsnip: sorry I get a bit confused. would that bin install firefox plugin or is it just java? [12:31] I am running the live CD of 8.04.2, i want to do a netinst, as the media is corrupt i suppose. can I netinstall using the cd? without needing to download the netinstall cd? [12:31] _2 it stated it is 0 and by the way my mobile is n80 [12:31] edgy: it'd install java runtime, you can then symlink the .so file to your plugins directory to get java in firefox [12:31] how can I get kdiff3 to work with intrepid? [12:31] <_2> BioNuc see. 4.0K sda3 4.0K sda4 <<<< only the size ot the mountpoint has nothing to do with what is mounted there. [12:32] ajuonline: is the cd or the .iso corrupt? [12:32] jrib: no .. i can't ... since two weeks i have this problem .. and avery time happen the only way i found is shutdown from the off button [12:32] _2 ok but i can't copy on the device [12:32] but i'd lioke understand why is doing that ? [12:32] mrpurple: have you tried using a different user? [12:32] _2 I got it :D! [12:32] ikonia: they have sftp via port 22. Is there a way to get php to connect? [12:32] what irc client do you guys use? [12:32] !poll | batcoder-7 [12:32] batcoder-7: Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task. It's up to you to choose, depending on your preferences, features you require, and other factors. Do NOT take polls in the channel. If you insist on getting people's opinions, ask BestBot in #ubuntu-bots. [12:32] hellooooooooooooo [12:32] Sure enough all that was needed was to set the default sound card [12:32] <_2> BioNuc that would be a permissions issue assuming it is mounted rw [12:32] jrib: not yet [12:33] <_2> R34L1TY good on ya mate [12:33] jrib, what client do you use? [12:33] mrpurple: that would be something to try [12:33] _2 drwxr-xr-x 1 root root 0 2009-02-03 14:33 n80 i am a root [12:33] batcoder-7: ask BestBot in #ubuntu-bots, he'll give you a list and their popularity [12:33] i think im starting to get a grasp on this whole ubuntu thing :) [12:33] <_2> BioNuc so only root can write there [12:33] jrib: ok but then how can i solve it ? for that user [12:34] mrpurple: well first we need to determine it's a user issue [12:34] jrib, i was just goingto give irssi or w/e a try [12:34] _2 me as a root can't copy there [12:34] _2 i found a ticket on such an issue here http://dev.zuckschwerdt.org/openobex/ticket/31 but it is closed as invalid [12:35] batcoder-7: sure irssi is decent. Try all of the ones BestBot tells you about and choose whichever you like the most [12:35] <_2> R34L1TY the hardest step in learning linux, is forgetting everything you think you know about computers, so you can start without all the M$ interfearance. [12:35] ActionParsnip: and why this .so file is not available in sun-java6-jre? [12:35] _2 they state that it is fixed in new versions, i got them and compiled them but useless still get same problem [12:35] ikonia, hi I am the one with the performance problem on gentoo but not on ubuntu, i've now booted ubuntu's kernel and initrd with gentoo's userland and it didn't change anything(it stopped at booting proc and gave me a shell so I did hdparm -tT /dev/md1) so I want to look at the boot process from ubuntu userland [12:35] jrib: ok so now i shutdown and i'll try with a new user [12:36] _2 i see that. Im so used to being baby'd by the double click to install programs :D [12:36] edgy: no idea man, thats the plugin file you need though [12:36] mrpurple: google "raising skinny elephants" and try that [12:36] <_2> BioNuc beyond the scope of my support, make it a general question (not prepending my nick) and see if anyone else knows more about it. [12:36] _2 ok thanks [12:37] <_2> R34L1TY yep, been there, done that. glad to have gotten away from it now. [12:37] Guest79506: tell your client to connect on 22 [12:37] <_2> BioNuc welcome. [12:37] guys, i mounted my bluetooth device using obexfs but it shows a size of 0 right now, any help in such an issue [12:37] I am using Gajim. If I am using in addition Audacious and switch off Audacious, Gajim will no longer produce sounds. How to repair this? [12:38] jrib: the problema is that weven now is something that arrive like that .. there is no a .... ok i 'll give a look [12:38] _2 Where is a good place to learn all the Terminal commands, as in how to install things, remove things, and general stuff everyone should know? [12:38] bullgard4: what version of ubuntu are you using ? [12:38] <_2> !cli | R34L1TY this might be a good starting point. [12:38] R34L1TY this might be a good starting point.: The linux terminal or command-line interface is very powerful. Open a terminal via Applications -> Accessories -> Terminal (Gnome) or K-menu -> System -> Konsole (KDE). Guide: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UsingTheTerminal [12:38] ikonia: Ubuntu 8.04.2. [12:39] bullgard4: ahhh, never mind, I'd read about a bug in 8.10 [12:39] _2 Thank you :) [12:39] i have an issue with obexfs, any help, i have a nokia n80 mobile device [12:39] hi i have a problem with firefox in ubuntu, when i save a bookmark (drag it to the bookmark toolbar) it sticks. but after i restart the bookmark is gone :S [12:39] <_2> R34L1TY i have said several times that the installer should open "man man" like M$ installers open the EULA dialog [12:40] <_2> R34L1TY you can't install unless you can find your way around in a man page :))) [12:40] _2; Two more things for now; I started with 7.10 from a CD i had, Then updated to 8.04 via System>Administration>Update Manager, But it doesnt seem to want me to update to 8.10, Am i doing something wrong? [12:40] Yeah hehe :) [12:40] jrib: is a key combination to try if can stop hard disk running ? [12:40] Or "Stick it to the man" [12:41] mrpurple: no [12:41] And secondly; Ive seen some user videos where they have a 3d desktop going on, Is that an addon? or does it come with ubuntu [12:41] <_2> R34L1TY ummm well, careful you don't get my openion in place of a logical answer.... [12:42] <_2> R34L1TY imo yes. you are doing something wrong when trying to upgrade from stable LTS version to a short term and more buggy verstion... [12:42] Can someone look at my boot chart and tell me what is slowing it down ? [12:43] Oh, so 8.04 is good for the less than average user? [12:43] <_2> R34L1TY but the "logical" answer would be, have you tried: sudo apt-get update ;sudo apt-get dist-upgrade ? [12:44] _2 I have not, ive just been relying on the Update Manager [12:44] Does anyone know of a fix for compiz, where say you have two maximized windows on top of each other, and you close the top one and it closes both? [12:44] Daemonax: join #compiz-fusion [12:44] <_2> R34L1TY yes. in my openion, the six month release cycle is too short, it rushes the developers into releasing things that they know are still problematic, which they then have to work the bugs out of, while normal users suffer jet lag [12:45] ikonia: thanks, that is a better idea. [12:45] I need to get more then 30 Megs a second transfer on hard drive any Ideas ? [12:45] <_2> R34L1TY but that's my openion. [12:45] <_2> !lts | R34L1TY [12:45] R34L1TY: LTS means Long Term Support. LTS versions of Ubuntu will be supported for 3 years on the desktop, and 5 years on the server. [12:45] _2 I understand, I will continue to use 8.04 :D [12:46] while trying to compile a new kernel i get the following error msg http://rafb.net/p/LagAxo60.html anyone here can tell me whats exactly wrong there please? [12:47] Hello... I lost my samba init.d script, where can i get it back? [12:47] Chocotoff: that was careless [12:48] Chocotoff: how did you manage that? [12:48] :) [12:48] well, i deleted it hehe [12:48] Chocotoff: You could reinstall samba. Config files should not be deleted but backup just to be sure [12:48] <_2> Chocotoff the samba package ? [12:48] [12:48] Chocotoff: sudo apt-get install --reinstall " [12:48] iirc [12:48] <_2> Chocotoff or just pull the script out of the package [12:49] yes, i will try that [12:49] Chocotoff: You could try sudo dpkg --configure samba [12:49] I need to get more then 30 Megs a second transfer on my hard drive any Ideas ?

[12:51] abd88 No, I mean that includes search, and all that...like Limewire. [12:52] ah, don't know about those, sry [12:52] Berserkur can you look at my um bootchart thing and tell me what's up ? I have but it's running as scuzzi [12:52] !cdrom [12:52] Sorry, I don't know anything about cdrom [12:52] !I/O error [12:52] Sorry, I don't know anything about I/O error [12:52] !I/O [12:52] Ok, then..Does anybody know what the best p2p client is? [12:52] Sorry, I don't know anything about I/O [12:52] rainmanp7: Alright, use pastebin [12:53] Berserkur thanx [12:53] Berserkur whats the ubuntu pastebin thing link again ? [12:53] Photoguy: I don't use p2p client but I hear emule or edonkey is poplular [12:53] does anyone know how to re-install packages without a cdrom drive? [12:54] Soyo, you just need to disable the cdrom repository, and enable the network ones [12:54] rainmanp7: Don't know if there is an ubuntu pastebin but: http://pastebin.com/ [12:54] how do you do that? [12:54] Berserkur, I tried dreamule, but the download speed for a 4gb file never went above 30 kb/s, it was usually 3kb/s [12:55] Berserkur I have a boot thing from the Bootchart thing in png format [12:55] Photoguy: Are you sure it's the p2p clients fault and not the uploaders fault? [12:56] rainmanp7: You could dcc me the thing [12:56] Berserkur, I'm not sure, but it only downloaded 1gb in about 5 days :P [12:57] rainmanp7: Or you could use an online gallery if you have such a thing [12:57] Photoguy: the client isn't a factor - the network / other peoples are the issue [12:57] hi [12:57] Photoguy: there isn't a "faster" client - it's about the network you are on and the other users [12:58] i have a problem in sound speaker [12:58] in my ubuntu [12:58] ikonia, ok. [12:58] Samba is working again... purging samba AND samba-common did the trick [12:58] Berserkur Trying to Dcc now if you tell me how to do the online gallery thing i can do it :) [12:59] is there a cron gui in ubuntu? [12:59] any suggestion? [12:59] I'm trying to set up a Microsoft Exchange e-mail account in Evolution.. I can't push the Authenticate button in the setup, any idea why? [12:59] Guest79506: not that I'm aware of, the shell interface is very easythough [12:59] ikonia I'm trying to download an .iso file for a game (which I own), i'm thinking some sort of direct download might be faster. [12:59] easy though [12:59] Guest79506: gnome-schedule [12:59] Photoguy: if you own the game - you don't need to download it [12:59] I know.. [12:59] Photoguy: great, so we don't need to talk about it [12:59] maybe he lost the cd :) [12:59] Ikonia, I lost it it my house :P [12:59] jrib: thx [13:00] Photoguy: well - it's not a client issue [13:00] ok [13:00] jrib: that's handy to know, ta [13:00] rainmanp7: Try again [13:00] let me know if there is any suggestion [13:01] rainmanp7: About the gallery thing. I was just suggesting it if you had something like that. You know like flickr or something of that sort [13:01] Photoguy: If it's a popular game the P2P sources are probably poisoned by the publishers [13:01] hi how would i do this? let's say when i type 'hello' in the terminal, firefox will run [13:01] ikonia: the problem with ssl was that i needed to enable passive mode because the server couldn't connect through my firewall. [13:01] jerome_ ok, then what's the best way to download? [13:01] Guest79506: thats not an ssl problem [13:01] boozer: put an alias in your ~/.bashrc (there are examples there) [13:01] <_2> boozer alias hello=firefox [13:01] thanks :) [13:01] Berserkur ok let me check flicker thing [13:01] ikonia: But it worked [13:02] Guest79506: yes - thats YOUR firewall problem, not an ssl problem [13:02] Photoguy: I would suggest using Torrent rather that emule or any of the p2p clients [13:02] ok [13:02] Berserkur: I would suggest we stop talking about it [13:02] ikonia, don't worry, I'm all legal. [13:02] ikonia: sure but it worked via ftp. So I got stumped. [13:02] ikonia: could you help me with Evolution and setting up a Microsoft Exchange account? :) [13:02] I only copy what I own. [13:03] Caesi: what's the issue ? [13:03] anyone could help me with audio problem in my ubuntu [13:03] ikonia: in the setup, I can't press the "Authenticate" button to check my login name etc. and therefore can't press "Forward" [13:04] Caesi: oh, is all the details you need to fill in filled in ? [13:04] ikonia: yes [13:04] ikonia: screenie helpful? [13:04] Caesi: maybe [13:05] Berserkur ok I got a flicker image uplaoded here http://www.flickr.com/photos/34993488@N05/3250582974/ [13:06] is name of the terminal "konsole"? :-? [13:06] ikonia: can I just send it to you? [13:07] Caesi: stick it on a webhost somewhere [13:07] ok [13:07] I thought you'd say that ;) [13:07] <_2> boozer one might find a good use for things like that, sudo apt-get install serfraw ; alias google="sr google" ;alias howto="sr slinuxdoc" ;alias wikipidia="sr wikipidia" [13:07] rainmanp7: And what seems to be the problem? [13:08] Konsole = the kde 'terminal' application [13:08] Berserkur nothing really just wondering if it could boot any faster ? [13:08] I lost my GUI is there any way to stop things from listing past the end of the page? For example, I try dppkg -l and can only see from X down. I cannot scroll up because all I have is the command prompt. Excuse my french but in MS-DOS you can use /p on most commands to limit it to one page at a time. Is there any way to do this in Linux (Ubuntu). [13:08] <_2> boozer then command wikipidia search # would be a keyword for the browser to look for. [13:08] can games like world of warcraft run in Ubuntu (4 bit) ? [13:08] kewln00b: what ? [13:08] ikonia: http://www.yousendit.com/download/WnBSZGlpSWV3NUozZUE9PQ [13:08] rainmanp7: How long does it take to boot? [13:09] kenalex: what ? 4 bit ? game looks like world of warcraft ? [13:09] can someone tell me what gtk is and why that word is used so often in da desktop screenshotz threads on da forumz [13:09] sorry i meant 64bit [13:09] <_2> anyway i'm out. gooday and good luck to your pinguin [13:09] Berserkur on that link I just showed you the image in flicker the bootchart at the top says 25 seconds [13:09] http://www.flickr.com/photos/34993488@N05/3250582974/ [13:09] Caesi: out of interest can you ping your exchange server [13:09] Soyo: Have you tried shift+page up or page down? [13:10] ikonia: maybe I should add that Evolution asks for my default key ring bla, which I don't really understand (didn't set up a PW for that?) [13:10] and i meant warcraft and other windows games [13:10] no [13:10] ok [13:10] if your computer is off when a cron job is scheduled will the job ever run? [13:10] but I will [13:10] kenalex: it's a graphic library [13:10] kenalex: investigate wine [13:10] Guest79506: no [13:10] works in irssi [13:10] ok [13:10] ikonia: I'm actually in the VPN of that server, so everything's fine [13:10] thanks [13:10] anyone runs adobe in ubuntu?? [13:11] Caesi: I'm wondering if because your canceling your keyring it can't authenticate, the only time I've seen the authentication button not available is when it can't "see" the server, so it doesn't enable authentication [13:11] magooo [13:11] i do [13:11] ask me how [13:11] Caesi: you may have to end up logged a bug [13:11] how? [13:11] gordonjcp: is there a way to get a cron to run at some point during the day when the computer is on? [13:11] magooo: adobe what ? [13:11] Using Grub trying to load 2.6.27-11 generic, I get a error 11 Unrecognized Device String - what's the cure for this? Please [13:11] Guest79506: use anacron [13:11] ps, illustrator.. flash [13:11] rainmanp7: Right, you could remove bluetoothd and winbindd from startup but I don't think you would get many seconds out of that [13:11] Guest79506: yes, you set the time of the day you want the cronjob to run at - that's what crontab is [13:12] ikonia: hmm but why does it keep asking me for the default key ring? everytime I connect to the 3G network I'm in it asks me 2.. I just click "deny" and everything seems to work [13:12] i took a screen shot of the adobe apps running windows and i transferred them to ubuntu, where i just view them and pretend i am using the apps [13:12] Caesi: keyrings are normally just a way of storing passwords so you don't have to keep entering it [13:12] rainmanp7: And you could remove other things but that would cause more inconvenience and you would end up having to do things manually [13:12] kenalex: stop messing around please [13:12] kenalex: sorry - not you [13:13] maggoo: Use WIne. [13:13] kewln00b: stop messing around please [13:13] Berserkur ok let me try that :) thank you I will be back :) [13:13] rainmanp7: Which would probably take more time from you then the startup time will ever do :) [13:13] ikonia: can I disable that? [13:13] rainmanp7: Note, I am not recommending this [13:13] thanks jrib [13:13] Caesi: well hitting "cancel" will stop it as your doing [13:13] ikonia..any idea? [13:14] Berserkur I know :) [13:14] ikonia: but it how can I prevent Ubuntu from asking all the time? :) [13:14] mib: I have no idea what youre talking about, I've not seen a question from you [13:14] rainmanp7: If you connect to windows shares on a regular basis, winbindd is quite useful [13:14] Caesi: I'm sure there will be a setting somewhere to disable it, I don't know it though [13:14] ikonia: ok got it [13:14] jagman, what version u ran? [13:14] ikonia: so I'm f*ed basically with Evolution? [13:15] rainmanp7: Also if you want other windows machines to see your machine on the SMB network [13:15] Caesi: well you can mind your language if you want to continue taling to me [13:15] talking [13:15] MTU question: I'm trying to lower my MTU from 1500 to 1492 with "/sbin/ifconfig wlan0 mtu 1492" and getting the error message "SIOCSIFMTU: Invalid argument" - any ideas?

You say you get no sound from the speaker but you do get sound from the headset when that's plugged in. How can it be the same? [13:20] So why is it giving me those problems now [13:20] ikonia: can you help set up my card [13:20] nickUK``` same problems.. yes. [13:20] it never gave me those problems befor [13:21] darko: what's the issue [13:21] is there gui for anacron?

[13:22] darko: how can i make sure that it identified the card, or should i look for a compatible driver [13:22] nickUK``` just because you change the repos after you installed something does not mean what you installed will not e a problem at some point [13:23] im new in ubuntu [13:23] imdeveloper welcome [13:23] does libpcap see eth0 and eth0:1 as separate interfaces or as the same? [13:23] http://pastebin.com/m2f8fa596 [13:23] thank you Jack_Sparrow [13:23] mib: Ahh, right. So you're pluggin the headset into the amplifier or the speaker itself? [13:23] spekaer itself [13:23] i need some help on graphic drivers [13:23] my mother board is biostar [13:24] the reason I ask is that snort uses libpcap to read packets, and I want to know if telling snort to listen on eth0 will make snort listen to both aliases [13:24] nickUK``` THat is not at all what I asked for.. [13:24] mib: Alright. This is not an ubuntu issue. Either you need to turn up the volume, unmute or the speaker is faulty [13:24] darko: how can i make sure that it identified the card, or should i look for a compatible driver [13:24] and it has nvidia chipset [13:24] nickUK``` shut off the other pavkage manager. You can only have one open at a time [13:24] anybody knows some app which will enhance your audio output? something to add more bass and stuff like that [13:24] darko: install TV viewing software [13:24] mib: if you right click the volume control icon in the panel, and then choose "open volume control", you should have a front option which is speakers, and a headphone option for headphones.

If you plug the headset into the speaker, the sound should be redirected to the headset until you unplug it [13:26] eraggo: then in that case your public facing IP address is not being presented to the internet [13:26] jokkah: use the EQ in the app and cank the bottom end [13:26] err [13:26] eraggo: you may have to look at port forwarding [13:26] imdeveloper: run lspci on the commandline and tell me what video card it is exactly [13:26] ActionParsnip: my player have no EQ [13:26] imdeveloper: look for a line that contains VGA compatible controller [13:27] imdeveloper: you can copy / paste the single line to here if you want, dont paste the whole lot [13:27] jokkah: what app is it?

The firewall is managed using the 'iptables' command (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo), or GUI applications such as Firestarter (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE). [13:31] ChronosZA: so google for iptables firewall howto doesent have to ubuntu specific [13:31] firestarter is dead [13:31] hosts.allow just comments; hosts.deny also [13:31] jrib: Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have [13:31] requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable [13:31] distribution that some required packages have not yet been created [13:31] or been moved out of Incoming.

[13:31] jokkah for many people with a particular intel component, just adding < options snd-hda-intel model=3stack > to < /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base > fixes the problem [13:31] eraggo: ok, so firewall is all that's left [13:31] Ubuntu hasn't got a default firewall lol the bot is talking shit [13:31] i must tell friends... [13:31] jelly12gen: do you have a question we can help you with? [13:31] ChronosZA You can also get this free book.. which has a decent tutorial http://www.ubuntupocketguide.com/download.html [13:32] noo [13:32] Ok, seriosly...

[13:32] jelly12gen Behave.. you are wrong [13:32] ziroday: i just mean that the bot says ./.. aah it doesnt matter:P [13:33] nyaa: and must reboot? [13:33] eraggo: Sorry, but what are you trying to do' [13:33] ? [13:33] jokkah yes [13:34] nyaa: ok, ill have to reboot later then [13:34] jokkah I'm sure there's a way to just reset one thing instead but I find rebooting safer since I don't know the command for it [13:34] but i think it wil fix it [13:35] !firestarter | jelly12gen [13:35] jelly12gen: Ubuntu, like any other linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in.

[15:02] mikeshollen there is a hotkey for painting fire. make sure you know the key to kill it [15:02] I re-installed my hardy kernel and I seem to be missing a library. I can't get sound when watching vimeo online. What lib or codec am I missing? [15:02] ush: why not add those to your google query, and see what comes out? [15:02] about the same things [15:02] CrocoJet: what apps have you had problems with? [15:02] i really don't trust google [15:02] Gnea, is my opinion after some tests ..

[15:04] no, that's not what i'm saying [15:05] hye [15:05] i'm looking for somebody to point me towards a few of these fs's [15:05] anyone?? [15:05] anteaya: No problem. There's a lot on the topic on google too, as long as it's the typical one manu UBuntu users encounter.

[15:06] is the nvdia mcp78 chipset ubuntu compatible?

[15:06] is it possible to stop a fan manually? [15:06] KLKLOCO718 it should have a driver === k is now known as Guest49146 [15:06] when using apt-get install, some suggested packages are listed for the package I'm installing.

Any ideas as to what could have caused this, and how I could fix it? I already tried maxing out the hardware brightness/contrast settings on the monitors themselves. [15:12] darko: you can have a look at #totem on irc.gnome.org, although if it's an ubuntu-related problem, they may well send you back here... [15:12] LukaszJ, thanks, that was it. Gratitude [15:13] I have a rather nit-picky question. Even though I've set my system's theme, there are still some screens where that original light orange color still exists, for example after the loading screen during boot up just before the desktop loads, or on the top and bottom of the cube. Is there any way to adjust that? [15:13] anteaya: Glad I coul give a hand, check always the docs, there's a lot of info in them ;) [15:13] how do I change permissions on a folder? [15:13] sipior: i'm getting this from totem every time i try to install the extra plugins to play mp3: [15:13] This application conflicts with other installed software. To install 'gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly' the conflicting software must be removed first. [15:13] ok, let me rephrase my question. how do i mount an iso image so that it's writable? need to keep the image bootable, but replace some files on it to flash my bios. [15:13] test [15:14] Hi, does anybody know how to set up ubuntu and make the /var/www/ accessible to public internet, like a website? [15:14] I don't know how to run around doing things as root in ubuntu... [15:14] if you know a good tutorial for this, it would be very helpful [15:14] darko: are you installing these plugins via apt-get/synaptic? [15:14] imaginativeone: man chmod [15:14] german ubuntu please [15:14] !de [15:14] gafir777: google apache [15:14] In den meisten ubuntu-Kanälen wird nur Englisch gesprochen. Für deutschsprachige Hilfe besuchen Sie bitte #ubuntu-de, #kubuntu-de, #edubuntu-de oder #ubuntu-at. Geben Sie einfach /join #ubuntu-de ein! Danke für Ihr Verständnis. [15:14] how do I check active processes and how the RAM is spent with command line (Ubuntu Server)? [15:14] sipior: synaptic says 'gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly' is not installed [15:15] darko: and if you try to install it using synaptic? [15:15] hey guys [15:15] JackWinter: i get on the apache page, but how can it set it up though? My server is working properly, local, but i'd like to open my router somehow [15:15] sipior: unresolved dependencies and the dependencies say the same [15:16] that's one of the ways that Ubuntu fucking sucks...can't do things as root [15:16] imaginativeone: uhh...sudo -s? [15:16] gafir777: you proably have to open some ports up in your router to allow incoming connections to your server... === Byex is now known as Byex|AWAY [15:16] * Gnea looks oddly at imaginativeone [15:16] sipior: i tried to to install the packages when i first installed ubuntu but we had a black out and the download stopped and thats what u got when i retried [15:16] gafir777 open port 80 (standard HTTP port) in your router [15:16] Do Ubuntu's kernel packages include a vmlinux suitable for use with oprofile? [15:16] DragonLord-: Well, I'd start by typing "top" for the procesess, and "free -m " for memory, "top" will show it up too but in another, less readable form. [15:16] good morning [15:16] DragonLord: that's it? then it directly goes to the /var/www? [15:17] mshooshtari: Hello there [15:17] sipior: what i got when i retried* [15:17] hm it should be possible to write directly in hwmon/hwmon1/device/pwmX to stop a fan right? [15:17] how can I do that? [15:17] I have a question about DNS, I'm able to resolve my active directory domain controllers with nslookup, but unable to ping. When trying to use likewise-open it cannot find them. [15:17] gafir777 yes, standard port for apache is 80 so it will work, you usuly login to your router on 192.168.1.1 or 192.168.0.1 [15:18] LukaszJ okey, thanks [15:18] I'm not sure how DNS in linux is different. [15:18] hello [15:18] I know windows can figure out that it can choose either domain controller, but I believe linux is getting confused because there are two DNS enteries for the domain name. [15:18] darko: from the terminal, can you try installing using apt-get? something like "sudo apt-get -f install " [15:18] DragonLord:I'm in my router interface, it's a linksys cable modem, I'm trying to find the tab where I can set up the port 80 [15:19] Well, a reboot fixed the screen contrast problem, whatever it was. Kind of a worry, but I won't worry too much unless it comes up again. [15:19] DragonLord-: Check "man top" and "man free", they provide some really useful options, like "free -ms 2", will show you memory usage with 2 sec interval, and so on. [15:19] gafir777: it might be called NAT, or firewall [15:19] mshooshtari: sounds more like a networking issue - firewall or something [15:20] JackWinter: Can't seem to find it, I have tabs: setup | wireless | Access Restrictions | Applications and Gaming | Administration | Status [15:20] (If anyone sent me a reply in the last five minutes, my apologies for missing it during the reboot, and I'd appreciate a resend.) [15:20] JackWinter: APplications and Gaming seems like it, there is an "Application" field, and port rage, protocol Ip address and enable [15:20] gafir777: can you browse your pages with 127.0.0.1. if so probably the remaining hurdle is the blocking of ports in your router. [15:20] Gnea: I can ping each IP individually [15:21] gafir777 check if your router are on http://portforward.com/routers.htm [15:21] JackWinter: I can browse with 127.0.01 [15:21] gafir777: try access restrictions [15:21] yes [15:21] ubuntu not detecting sata drive even in "enhanced" mode [15:21] mshooshtari, the resolver shouldn't have a problem with that. Does dig lookup the name correctly? [15:21] mshooshtari: what did you mean by "but unable to ping." then? [15:21] gafir777: or possibly administration [15:21] jackwinter: What I see is this: http://www.no-ip.com/routers/linksys4.jpg [15:21] for application and gaming [15:21] I think this is what it is, no? [15:21] gafir777: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. === Berserku1 is now known as Berserkur [15:21] hey guys...recently installed ubuntu and love it (windows hard drive dies and decided to be done with MS). Installed ubuntu. came here to get Banshee recommended to me as an app to work with my ipod (5th gen 30gb). Banshee discovered my ipod and i was able to create my local library from it. no problems. then, added some albums to the library, attempt to sync. Banshee shows while syncing that it's deleting all songs from the ipod. wtf? [15:22] gafir777: that's it..! [15:22] gafir777 write 80, 80 check TCP and add your last digit in the number box and check Enable [15:22] should /etc/profile be sourced for all users using bash whenever a terminal is opened? it doesn't seem to be. i'm trying to set my path [15:22] JackWinter: Cool, that was the "Gaming" tab, not very helpful title :) [15:22] hey people, how can I say my gnome-terminal to run him in 256 color mode and not 8 colors!! [15:23] robson: check /etc/bash.bashrc [15:23] so I set port range from 80 to 80, right? [15:23] BrokenClockwork: What exactly are you trying to do? [15:23] gafir777: gaming, hehe [15:23] betterhands: Maybe #banshee would help you out? [15:23] gafir777 yes, you only need port 80 to be forwarded [15:23] !lamp [15:23] wats the problem?, sata drive not being detected during ubuntu install even in ahci mode [15:23] LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP. However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL. For help with setting up LAMP on Ubuntu, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP - See also the Server CD installation process (different in Edgy+) [15:23] DragonLord: and what about the Protocol, both? UDP TCP? and IP Address? [15:24] aircrack-ng on a 64bit ubuntu install??? [15:24] has it been done [15:24] gordonjcp: Running Vim with a color scheme, that was designed for 256 (GVim), I have also a plugin which realizes this, the only thing that stops me, is that gnome-terminal tells me, it runs in 8 color mode [15:24] gafir777 only TCP, and the IP adress should point to your server [15:25] I can ping host1.domain and host2.domain [15:25] I can't ping domain === alberto is now known as Guest66452 [15:25] DragonLord: What do you mean poiting to my server? [15:25] betterhands: Every user has different preferences in using media players, thus, not everyone will use just banshee, but someone who can help does, going to the official Banshee channel will increase your chance :) [15:25] but for active directory to work, you can ping domain [15:25] LukaszJ i'll give it a try now that i know it exists--thanks [15:25] i'm using a binary that uses older glibc and refers to __ctype_b which is now undefined. can i fix this somehow or maybe use two versions of glibc? [15:25] DragonLord: I can only change the last digits [15:25] DragonLord: I can't change 192.168.0.xxx : only xxx i can change === Guest66452 is now known as mito_94 [15:26] hello [15:26] gafir777 it should point to the computer where you have Apache running with your site [15:26] what happened to Screens and Graphics in Intrepid? [15:26] i am boby and i need some one to discuss about data computer [15:26] DragonLord: this is the one I'm using right now, how do I know this? :) [15:26] is it possible to modify a glibc installation? [15:27] hi everyone [15:27] frantzson11: boby? [15:27] KenBW22, that's not a question and makes no sense [15:27] yeah [15:27] could u accept [15:27] frantzson11: I don't understand the term... [15:27] !ask | frantzson11 [15:27] frantzson11: 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. :-) [15:28] scunizi: well i remember it was in System > Administration in Gutsy, then hidden in Applications > Other in Hardy and in Intrepid i cant find it [15:28] please could discuss about computer networking [15:28] KenBW22, find what? [15:28] robson: modify in what way, exactly? [15:28] scunizi: the Screens and Graphics utility [15:28] frantzson11: that's not a problem, but you will need to tell us what problem you are having [15:28] gafir777 okey, either check with ifconfig in a terminal or with some graphical tool [15:29] hello... someone can tell me please how can I delete save passwords ? [15:29] Places -- > Connect to Server --> windows share --> when I put the password I set "Remember forever", and now it's connection without asking for password, how can I disable it? [15:29] sipior: i have a binary that tries to compile something that refers to __ctype_b, and that no longer exists in glibc, and i dont have the source to fix their problem [15:29] DragonLord: is it the inet addr? [15:29] to configure a router on linux [15:29] DragonLord: inet addr for eth0, should be that [15:29] gafir777 yes [15:29] KenBW22, resolution is changed in System>Preferences>screen resolution.

If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) [15:30] gafir777 nice :) [15:30] Caesi: try #irssi [15:30] scunizi: Screen Resolution doesnt have as many options [15:30] robson: heh heh, lovely. best would probably be to build a parallel (older) glibc in your home directory, and link against that. [15:30] DragonLord: so now if I want to access it from outside, I use the IP of the router right? [15:30] thanks; very simple (I think?): how can I set my default nick? [15:30] KenBW22, what are you trying to change? [15:30] LikaszJ - thanks for the tip, but there's no one in #banshee. i'll just keep tabs on my forum posts. thanks.

Places -- > Connect to Server --> windows share --> when I put the password I set "Remember forever", and now it's connection without asking for password, how can I disable it?

[15:32] DragonLord: Thank you so much for your help DragonLord-, you made it very easy. [15:32] scunizi: nvidia, not installed drivers yet though [15:32] anyone know more informations about gfxboot and manipulating with grub ? [15:32] DragonLord-: is there anything I should do in terms of security, or should it be ok? [15:32] thanks guys, just done it [15:32] !grub|sky_ [15:32] sky_: GRUB is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost GRUB after installing Windows? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreGrub - GRUB how-tos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto [15:32] apparantly i have some broken packages how can i fix that [15:33] and about gfxboot ? is not dangerouse ? [15:33] I think I figured out what the solution might be [15:33] robson: hmm...either a creative use of symlinks, or possibly an older install inside a virtual machine. [15:33] I need to dissable IPV6 [15:33] darko: When did they brake ? [15:33] !ipv6 [15:33] robson: or stick the binary and the older libc in a chroot jail, so that it only sees the older library. [15:33] For an introduction to IPv6 and information on tunneling IPv6 through IPv4 connections, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IPv6 | To disable IPv6 see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WebBrowsingSlowIPv6IPv4 [15:33] KenBW22, that's the reason.. system>admin>hardware drivers and enablel one.. then restart [15:34] sipior: is it possible to modify the library code itself and compile that myself? i think the fix is easy [15:34] so nslookup is resolving using IPV4, but ping is aparently trying to use ipv6 [15:34] scunizi: so is Screens and Graphics completely obselete now? [15:34] Lukasz: i was downloading the extra plugins for totem and the power went out [15:34] robson: sure, as long as it doesn't break anything else. worth a try. [15:34] KenBW22, yes [15:34] maybe that URL has instructions for dissabling. [15:34] scunizi: what about the options it had that SR doesnt? [15:34] sipior: but where is the code for the library? i can only find the compiled version (.so or .a) [15:35] KenBW22, which options are you referring to ? [15:35] so firefox has completely lost all window decorations and is permanently maximized on my copy of intrepid ibex. Just started a couple days ago. Applied latest updates, restarted several times to no avail. anyone have any ideas? It appears to be the only app affected [15:35] scunizi: iit used to have loads of things like selecting drivers, manufacturer, screen type etc [15:35] anyone here familiar with Grip? i can't find an irc channel for it so i figured i'd ask in here [15:35] robson: you'll need to grab glibc-source [15:36] sipior: ok, thanks [15:36] trippss: you use compiz and emerald ? [15:36] when i put a cd in the drive, grip sees it briefly but then all the tracks disappear, it's really odd [15:36] sky_, compiz - don't think emerald. however I switched to metacity to see if that fixed it and it didn't [15:36] i was downloading the extra plugins for totem and the power went out, now apy-get says that the packages are broken, what should i do [15:37] oh wait - seems to be working now [15:37] KenBW22, the graphic system is handled by xrandr now.. you won't see much in xorg.conf.. so after installing the nvidia drivers you can install nvidia-settings .. that will give you lots of options. [15:37] darko: sudo dpkg --configure -a i think [15:37] trippss: are you sure you're not in full-screen mode (F11)?? [15:37] n/m :) [15:37] wilsonnck, I wasn't but switching to full screen and back seems to have worked [15:37] I would like to make the /opt folder temporarily available so that I can install xampp in there. how do I do that? [15:37] scunizi: so S&G was basically duplicating existing tools? [15:37] trippss: metacity - - replace didnt work ? [15:38] KenBW22, sort of.. they've just changed access to them.. [15:38] sky_, no worries it seems to be working now [15:38] sky_, unrelated issue [15:38] imaginativeone: Why are you using xampp instead of the proper Ubuntu supported lamp install? [15:38] !lamp > imaginativeone [15:38] imaginativeone, please see my private message [15:38] LOL [15:39] scunizi: oh, well thanks for the info [15:39] because I don't know how (yet) [15:39] imaginativeone: See the message from ubottu for instructions [15:39] what does libtar but it is not installable mean? how can it install it [15:39] trippss: mhmhm :-X [15:39] thanks for that link [15:39] in a related discussion it would be nice to have a maximize mode where window decorations didn't display like firefox was, but you still had task bar, menu bar, etc., and it overlaid the entire desktop to get maximal screen real estate [15:40] s/task bar/status bar === zz_hexbase is now known as hexbase [15:40] someone can help me please? where ubuntu save the passwords for sessions when I mark the "remember forever" button?

If so, I might go to the Department of Motor Vehicles...gotta register my car [15:42] Anybody have a better suggestion to dissable IPV6 than editing the /etc/modprobe.d/aliases ?

[15:56] arvind_khadri, danbhfive: http://paste.ubuntu.com/113247/ [15:56] KenBW22 -> you are using dchp right? are you sure your cat 5 cable is good? [15:56] scunizi: so, If I want to switch between KDM and gnome, then why do I have to look at something about "IPv4 and IPV6" connections?? I'm sorry, I guess I'll just ask someone else. [15:57] darko, first run sudo apt-get install -f [15:57] lshw -C network shows that the NIC is disabled(?). How to enable it?

[15:58] jones, np :) [15:58] KenBW22 -> you possibly moved the cable? check and verify if it is snugged.. also what is the results of sudo dhclient eth0 ? [15:58] darko, ok now run sudo apt-get update [15:58] arvind_khadri: thats gona take ages [15:58] darko, which ubuntu are you running? [15:59] arvind_khadri: 8.10 [15:59] so no one familiar with grip? [15:59] kfyit: which part of the output are you after [15:59] darko: try sudo apt-get dist-upgrade [15:59] jals: grip? or grep? [15:59] jals: what's the problem with grip ? [15:59] darko, ok, try installing the package now... the ugly one [15:59] has anyone got a windows mobile phone working with ubuntu like using it to control rhythmbox [15:59] when i put a cd in the drive, grip sees it briefly but then all the tracks disappear, it's really odd [15:59] sue, My appologies.. I went back and saw where I got confused.. I was responding to the wrong nick with the wrong info.. sorry for the frustration.. on the login screen where you put your password there should be an Options button where you can change from gnome to kde [15:59] KenBW22 -> just post it [16:00] scunizi: yes which is called Sessions [16:00] does Ubuntu Server usually use up all memory? I got 2Gb of RAM and it only runs rTorrent, Apache and acts like a router/gateway for my network (with eBox). [16:00] scunizi: That's fine, I was beginning to think you where crazy! [16:00] :) [16:00] kfyit: it results in "No DHCPOFFERS received No working leases in persistent databases - sleeping.", then exits [16:00] sue.. :) [16:00] Has anyone noticed their gettys are disappearing (8.10 server edition)? We're kind of worried as we've somehow lost gettys 1 and 2. [16:00] DragonLord-: run htop [16:00] jals: never failed for me... any error msgs ?? [16:01] sue, kitche has the name right.. it's called sessions. in options [16:01] DragonLord-: it can depends on how much traffic your getting to apache among other things [16:01] KenBW22 -> again, check if the cable is really good, and also check if your dhcp is really doling out an ip address.. reset your dhcp server if possible [16:01] http://pastebin.ca/1326307 [16:01] tty[3-6] remain, but [1,2] have gone [16:01] DragonLord-: you can check overall memory usage with: free [16:01] i ran it from command line, no error messages it just says Drive status is 4 [16:01] I pasted my problem onto pastebin [16:01] DragonLord-: all my computers uses all their memory for caching [16:01] nothing in /var/log/ indicating a crash [16:01] dissabling IPV6 did not work to fix my problem. [16:02] erUSUL, it's like it can see the tracks, but something triggers it to lose them [16:02] kfyit: reset dhcp server? [16:02] KenBW22 -> yeah, which device is doing that for your pc ? [16:02] kfyit: do you mean the router? [16:03] jals: maybe some kernel error ? can you check "tailf /var/log/messages " when you put a cdaudio on your cdrom drive ? [16:03] KenBW22 -> whatever it is, reset the device that provides dhcp services to your pc [16:03] I have another idea, I have multiple DNS suffixes [16:03] erUSUL, i will now, but other apps are seeing the drive fine [16:03] I think it could be attaching the other domain suffix. [16:03] kfyit: i take it thats my router then [16:03] server.domain1.domain2 [16:03] scunizi: Ok, the only problem is, my Gnome login window theme is faulty...So I need someway to change it without logging out. [16:03] so when I ping server.domain1 it's actually trying to ping server.domain1.domain2 which does not exist, is that something that's possible? [16:04] @list [16:04] kfyit: will turn it off, brb when i restart it [16:04] sorry wrong window [16:04] can anyone explain to me why a umask of 0022 translates to rwxr-xr-x? [16:04] sue, I'm afraid I'm going to defer that question to someone that knows the answer.. sorry I don't [16:04] zash_, danbhfive okey, I have checked a couple of times with free -m -s 2 and there are ~70Mb left, I don't care I just wondered, it is probably used for cache like you say :) === nanotube is now known as therealnanotube_ === therealnanotube_ is now known as nanotube [16:05] adam -> 777 - 022 [16:05] adam__: a umask hides permissions. ie, the permission come out the opposite [16:05] scunizi: No problem, thank you very much for your help! [16:05] erUSUL, no nothing there, i think the drive is fine but Grip is being weird [16:06] right, but shouldn't a default of rwxr-xrx come out as 022? whats that extra zero? [16:06] adam -> 777 - 022 understand this concept [16:06] is there an ubuntu LAMP channel? [16:07] imaginativeone: #ubuntu-server [16:07] imaginativeone, #ubuntu-server may help [16:07] thanks [16:07] kfyit: no luck [16:07] DragonLord-: htop does a nice job of showing what memory is used for [16:07] adam__: the extra zero involves the setuid-exec, setgid-exec and sticky bit. see "man chmod" for more information. [16:07] what should i do to get use to gimp? [16:08] joejc: use synaptic to install it [16:08] adam__: hmmm, I dunno. Maybe its for the directory permissions. How are you receiving a umask? I usually set it on fat32 drive mounts [16:08] KenBW22 -> you have any other pc to test with? dont know if your router also supports that gigabit interface, or maybe not even 100meg [16:08] DragonLord-: http://pix.zash.se/i/hg.png green = used, blue = buffer, yellow = cache [16:08] zash_ okey, will install and test it then [16:08] kfyit: this PC worked fine with Hardy [16:08] jals: without seing some error msg or any clue of what's happening i can not help much...

[16:10] Banshee has no video [16:10] just so you know... [16:10] Mattyblog -> try #ubuntu+1 for jaunty [16:10] Mattyblog: did you try the 64bit flash?

[16:11] i'll check into Rockbox==thanks [16:11] Mattyblog: umm adobe.com download the 64bit flash [16:12] KenBW22 -> yeah a livecd should suffice [16:12] Mattyblog: since Ubuntu does not provide the flash in a package for 64bit since it came out to late [16:12] adobe.com only has 32bit? [16:12] kfyit: well its not a liveCD as such [16:12] KenBW22 -> should still work [16:12] Mattyblog: no adobe.com has 64bit and 32bit flash Ubuntu only provides a 32bit flash package [16:12] Is there a script to restart the tty interfaces? [16:12] oh [16:13] #ubuntu-it [16:13] kfyit: right its asking to Install Ubuntu, Check CD for defects etc [16:13] mjgreenso -> why do you believe tty needs a restart ? [16:13] kfyit: Rescue a broken system? [16:14] kfyit: Because one of our 8.10 servers has lost the first two ttys [16:14] sipior: appreciate it, i get it now [16:14] we have no idea why [16:14] mjgreenso -> you still have the other four? [16:14] <_msk_> hi.. i installed KDE from Synaptic(in ubuntu 8.02)...the version is 4.0.3....how do i upgrade to 4.2 ? [16:14] kfyit: yes [16:14] Hello all.

[16:15] mjgreenso: hm ,o [16:15] kfyit: We had to - but in case we lose another one or two it may be prudent to force restart to restore the rest... [16:15] we don't particularly want to be without console access "just in case" [16:16] can I reverse the LAMP tasksel method? [16:16] in fact the question I've been asked is "just how worried should I be that we're losing ttys" [16:16] mjgreenso -> if you look in /etc/event.d/ all your tty/console is defined there [16:17] Yes I saw those but I presume there's a script to read them and actually perform the restart [16:17] i was hoping someone could point me in the direction of a good live linux cd that allows me to change windows password and recovery/repair [16:17] imaginativeone -> reversing taskel seems problematic, it may de-install things you dont want, google for such info [16:17] thanks [16:17] how do I find the package manager? [16:18] mjgreenso -> udev+dbus+hald believe work in tandems to get up an running [16:18] need help setting up a web server behind a router. if I forward port 80 to my server, how will I get to the router config page?

[18:54] KlasRudian: not from source. [18:55] ATI driver is a binary. [18:55] penela, and changed the driver in xorg.conf to "radeon" or w/e is default? [18:55] sorry, my irc got all weird [18:55] KlasRudian: I tried to dpkg -reconfigure xserver-xorg and still cannot boot properly. [18:55] biouser: not if you can figure it out.. I've never put much time in jack but I understand that it works well. Of course jaunty may just fix most pulseaudio issues that we currently have.. Hardy was horrible for me and Intrepid is much better.. Jaunty should be even better [18:56] Besogon [18:56] ofix-comp: You should compare FPS with that fps. And if they is like your fps your driver work fine. [18:56] arvind_khadri: It wont install [18:56] KlasRudian: if I saved my xorg.conf from initial install and restored that file, shouldn't it work fine? [18:56] Berserkur: I think I've done it now, thanks for your help [18:56] Scunizi I agree but I am on jaunty right now... everything that runs through jack is way more stable than all the orphan programs ...

Is there anyway to get rid of that orange screen in the beginning? And, is that orange screen there because of the login screen?

[19:09] I have problems to see my other computer from wireshark [19:09] i guess what i am asking is if there is a tool for monitoring this built into ubuntu or if it is more software to dl [19:09] ofix-comp, try and tell me what you get. I Like epiphany-browser more. [19:09] ugliefrog, gimp comes by default in Ubuntu why do you want to compile it? [19:09] ofix-comp, dont forget to install epiphany-gecko.

[19:11] TelQuel: try opera. http://www.opera.com/browser/download/ [19:11] ofix-comp, yeah if you use any other browser! [19:11] ofix-comp: O my got. Now you will trying reinstall new browser... Epiphany work faster.

I'm wondering, if I install windows on the last part off the hdd, how can I then make the lilo boot work again, after windows install? cos then it will run directly in to windows without me getting to choose. Any e [19:12] asy solutions to this problem ? [19:12] Besogo vga compatible controller: S3 inc. VT8375 [ProSavage8 KM266/KL266] [19:13] that is what it shows in the terminal.. [19:13] gayle, maybe so because I couldn't install either konqueror nor opera properly either. And when I did sudo apt-get remove firefox it didn't even remove the program successfully. [19:13] ofix-comp: I must go out. Reinstall flash playr (delete deb and install flash player from Adobe.com all will fine). By [19:13] deal: windows like to be on the first partition - at least for install swap data [19:13] TelQuel: can give kazehakase a try [19:13] TelQuel: pretty good [19:13] user_, thank you! it's work :) [19:14] I couldnt do that, I to remove some off the partitions cos I could not have more then 4 partitions on one hdd [19:14] deal: you can have 15 partition is you use extended partitions [19:14] s0101: maybe if you describe a little better what exactly you are trying to do [19:14] hrm where can I see how much hard drive space I have? [19:14] kennethr1: Nevermind. I know now [19:14] TelQuel: df [19:15] Berserkur: mind sharing?

I have installed ubuntu on another machine and it will not search for any wireless networks. I know there are some around. Can anybody help me out on this one. [19:15] deal: windows is better to install first, and on the first parttiion [19:15] TelQuel: type df in a terminal [19:15] KlasRudian: sry , I got bumped off... my dmesg is http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/m3ced77c5 [19:15] ofix-comp, best of luck, gotta go, nightime here.

[19:16] ok and dev/sda7 percentage represents overall space used right? [19:16] KlasRudian: K, let me get it. [19:16] Ikonia, If I install windows on the first partition, it makes a extended windows partition, and then I have problem making the 3 partitons for ubuntu [19:16] anyone here got a broadcom 4306 rev 3 wireless card?

I know there are some around. Can anybody help me out on this one. [19:17] whew! this channel is awesome! [19:18] timahvo1, what does sudo apt-get remove -f do? [19:18] When i started the capture of all interfaces the other pc ip appeared on the first line marked with red [19:18] s0101: then most likely this is not going to work; B sends packets (via the router) to the internet. computer A will generally *not* see those packets [19:18] Cody.... the only solution I was ever able to find was by hooking up an ethernet cord to it [19:18] penela, you got the fglrx module loaded? "lsmod | grep fglrx" [19:18] And then installing the Windows Wireless Drivers packet [19:19] er, package [19:19] deal: you will have a problem because it overwrites the mbr ... windows does not create "extended partitions" and doesn't need them [19:19] hh [19:19] TelQuel: I suggest you take a few minutes ,open a terminal and type "man apt-get" [19:19] KlasRudian: no [19:19] ㅗㅑ [19:19] hi [19:19] hello [19:19] hi [19:19] is it easier to install a keylogger? [19:19] s0101: A can only see the packets that B sends either directly to it, or to any computer on the network (broadcast) [19:19] I have one NTFS partition I cant delete, cos I got alot of backup on it, and thats why windows create an extended partition [19:19] timahvo1, alright, probably wise as I believe I need to declutter things quite a lot.

[19:23] timahvo1, right about now I am wishing I had partitioned more of my drive for linux as my windows just got hit with a nasty virus. The worst I've seen in years. I've gotta make some space on my nix partition I think that's part of the problem. [19:23] bitmonster: please pastebin your dmesg [19:23] my cdrom is unusable after an unmount and its really annoying [19:23] any ideas? [19:23] Bensawsome: sudo iptables -L would list some rules I think, there's also ufw [19:23] !ufw | Bensawsome [19:23] Sorry, I don't know anything about ufw [19:23] !firewall | Bensawsome [19:23] Bensawsome: Ubuntu, like any other linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'iptables' command (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo), or GUI applications such as Firestarter (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE). [19:23] psst [19:23] perfect! :D [19:23] penela, something went wrong when you installed the fglrx/ati drivers....

[19:24] penela, what happens you say if you change the driver to radeon in xorg.conf [19:24] jinxy: I heard they were discussing it passionately in #ubuntu-offtopic.. perhaps you should join that channel and ask... hint hint [19:24] k3b will also say no dvdrw detected [19:24] Same thing. [19:24] s0101: i can think of two options: either install a "socks proxy" on your computer and configure the other one to use (all traffic goes through your box) or try to force something similiar through your router (if it supports that) [19:24] i can only get it working again after a reboot [19:25] Well, that's above my head. Haha. [19:25] i have dlink 604 [19:25] I guess you've already checked out the FSTAB and everything? [19:25] KlasRudian: Can I go back to the ubuntu drivers?

[19:27] s0101: sorry, can't help you there; i only know ways to do it that require quite a bit of knowledge with computers. maybe someone else can think of an easier way [19:27] dmi3on: I mean the server.. 32bit, 64 bit? server? desktop? ubuntu? something else? [19:28] penela, i belive that the standard driver is "radeon" in X and some vesa witch you allready have got, so change xorg.conf Section "Device" driver to "radeon" from fglrx or vesa or w/e it is right now and it should work [19:28] :( [19:28] hi, i have a question i wait my turn... [19:28] Slart, desktop is debian now, but at home i get same problem with ubuntu [19:28] Hello everybody. When i installed ubuntu on this machine all i had to to was activate the network device and restart and it stated picking up internet connections. Well on my other computer i installed ubuntu and the only thing to activate was "wl". I don't know what that is and ubuntu is not searching for wirelesss networks. [19:28] is there anywa i can slow traffic down on the other computer? [19:28] Slart, 32 bit [19:28] encaputxat: very noble of you.. but I think you had better just ask your question [19:28] anyone?

What does pulseaudio offer that alsa doesn't? I'm tempted to remove it as flash and audacity are screwing up.

[19:41] Slart: is it supposed to emulate alsa or just leave alsa still available for other apps?

Could anybody give me some links or perhaps help me out? Thanks! [22:06] hello, is there anyone who wants to help me bring up a wireless network interface?

"sudo apt-get install envy.*" [22:07] this driver doesn't support network manager [22:07] so i have to bring up the interface in the old fashioned way [22:07] with /etc/network/interfaces [22:07] installing [22:07] !enter | ToT [22:07] ToT: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation! [22:07] ToT, imo that's the way yo configure your network [22:07] pLr, now to get gem working :P [22:08] GaryDarko: then "envyng -t" again [22:08] taking longer this time :) [22:08] yes the issue is, that I can get it to work manually with iwconfig commands, but can't seem to do it with /etc/network/interfaces [22:08] GaryDarko: no worries.. let it work it's magic [22:08] alright :) [22:08] is there a program like foldershare that would allow access to the (ubuntu) hard disk through the internet? (I am not looking for: vnc, rdp, ssh, ftp ) [22:08] I installed ubuntu normally on other partition then XP's and the whole ubuntu partition is now root and the question is how can I add swap partition now; where is the partition manager or like in ubuntu ? [22:09] ToT: can you pastebin what you are doing with the iwconfig commands? [22:09] ok now its done [22:09] do the envyng -t ?

Then I moved onto the 'testing' portion of the in [22:17] np [22:17] rdw200169: well not sure what came with the image :) [22:17] ToT: the example is with pre-up and post-down, but the idea is the same [22:17] Gorlist, otherwise, without any of the tasksel option, like a LAMP server etc..., the ubuntu server install is about as minimal as you can get [22:18] I just installed 8.10 from 8.04 and now I have no sound--I have an audigy 2 sb0350b and the volume controls are all correct... [22:18] rdw200169: rgr, just doing a Lamp now [22:18] Gorlist, but if you want to easily install the most suggested server tasks, just run tasksel on the command line; it'll all make sense from there ;) [22:18] slacker_nl : thank you [22:18] rdw200169: or if I just run the plesk 8.6 installer, will that install the nessecary packages?

[22:25] Baatti: I'm not saying that's *the* solution, because your flashcam install might have done 'something' to the firefox installation, I really don't know.

Fire up the firefox and see if when it breaks. [22:30] whatever... [22:30] Scunizi, ahh its alright lol im done trying to figure this out and im just getting myself mroe confused so im going to give up :D but thanks for trying to help me. :D [22:31] hey, when ubuntu 8.10 was out there was a problem to use DNS with the nm-applet. is that fixed?

[22:31] dtchen: did you get the link? [22:31] z-e: don't get upset-- I am actually reading about the program now-- it appears as though you need a .rpm to deb conversion or compile from source [22:31] _VIM, i haven't brain for patience [22:32] Baatti: sure, no prob. You may want to be careful with your 'extensions' directory. I know I'd like my bookmarks back, for the rest of it... no worries :) [22:32] Scunizi, my only problem is that ubuntu 8.10 is not letting me use my graphics card lol, and thats all i want to use, but if there is something wrong with my computer or the OS itself then theres not much i can do about it since im not very knowlegable in this. [22:32] howdy, i was wondering if anyone knew how to activate the cube in ccsm? i enable "desktop cube" but i get a page flipping effect [22:32] i upgraded something and suddenly i can't adjust my laptop's screen brightness anymore--the little brightness indicator appears but the brghtness doesn't change. would it be an acpi problem? [22:32] fiftyone: try setting 4 horizontal desktops [22:33] ah ok [22:33] fiftyone: in the first section in the settings manager [22:33] kaz1nsky: sec [22:33] k [22:33] redvam128, i represented just example how i can see all inbound and outbound connections [22:33] I'm trying to create a script that runs after apt-get install is installing or updating a new package. Is it possible? [22:33] hey, when ubuntu 8.10 was out there was a problem to use DNS with the nm-applet. is that fixed? [22:33] fiftyone: try this page about 1/2 way down Forlong's Blog - I'm trying to comprehend the things I write [22:33] Hello, can any one help me with a problem regarding the Radeon 4870 card? my screen flash when i try to play any movies. [22:33] redvam128, i can use another program for view... but i have the same "problem" [22:34] i took my laptop away from home and now that i've returned my wireless can't access addresses outside my local network [22:34] redvam128, do you know what i'm mean [22:34] GaryDarko: that's why you're here.. for assistance.. I was where you're at about 3 years ago.. things are different and you have to do things differently.. the 6600 card is a very good card.. I"m just trying to get you to a point that we can try and fix the resolution without having to refomat [22:34] z-e: I don't use the program-- but it appears as though they have a Java front end to change the settings [22:34] Scunizi, fix the resolution ??? sooo when i enable it its messing up the size ???? [22:35] z-e: jnettop wiki FrontPage [22:35] baby I be Cubin! wooot wooot! [22:35] GaryDarko: or something like that.. most likely you have a "box" monitor and not an LCD .. am I right? [22:35] Hello everybody, is the bug that the wiki talks about still requires anything "special" to do with 8.10? https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LiveUsbPendrivePersistent#Method 3: Copying the ISO CD image to the USB drive [22:35] redvam128, can you find some solutions for ARP and UNKNOWNv4 <-> UNKNOWNv4 ? [22:35] Scunizi, no im using a 17 inch LCD lol. [22:35] redvam128, thanks. [22:36] GaryDarko: and is it hooked up with the smaller vga connector or the larger DVI connector? [22:36] when i do ~$ sudo mdadm --assemble /dev/md0 /dev/sd[cd]1, i get ~$ mdadm: cannot open device /dev/sdc1: Device or resource busy [22:36] mdadm: /dev/sdc1 has no superblock - assembly aborted [22:36] what do you think I can do? [22:36] Scunizi, you lost me lol. :D [22:36] its sick how much i love this cube [22:36] lol [22:36] what harm can it do to edit a file within .purple while Pidgin is running? [22:36] Can any here help me with a problem regarding the Radeon 4870 Graphic card? i have tried to solve it for 3 months now and nothing seems to work. [22:36] I'm trying to create a script that runs after apt-get install is installing or updating a new package. Is it possible? [22:38] z-e: all I could find is some people chatting about network traffic issues -- http://www.ietf.org/proceedings/06mar/minutes/16ng.txt [22:38] i have a conundrum regarding bash on ubuntu. I set GIT_EDITOR="emacs -nw" in ~/.bash_aliases, did source ~/.bashrc, then tried to a commit, but it's still using nano. echo $GIT_EDITOR still spits back 'emacs -nw', but printenv | grep GIT turns up nothing. does anyone have any clue? [22:38] Slart how do you change the cap and dome? [22:38] redvamp128, i appreciate for your help,... [22:38] fiftyone: ask in #compiz-fusion, that's where the bling bling people hang out [22:38] z-e: seems as if too many people try to view cams-- the connection is overrun [22:39] fiftyone: I have no idea myself... I don't even have the cube enabled any more [22:39] Slart lol i'm not a bling bling guy im just a cuber :D [22:39] lol [22:39] KenBW2: well, if pidgin has the file open (e.g. in use) then your changes *might* be lost as soon as pidgin updates that file [22:39] angelixd: export GIT_EDITOR="foo bar" [22:39] fiftyone: I'm pretty sure you'll find some cuber-friends in that channel too =) [22:39] redvamp128, i don't understand you [22:39] GaryDarko: the plug that goes from the monitor to the computer.. there's one that is pretty much shaped like a rectangle and about 2x the size of the other which looks like an old RS-232 connector of sorts. [22:39] fiftyone: Forlong's Blog - How to set up Compiz Fusion 0.7.4 (included in Ubuntu 8.04 Hardy Heron) [22:39] haha lol [22:40] prince_jammys: thanks! === mike is now known as Guest60029 [22:40] E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), is another process using it? [22:40] how do i recover? [22:40] Scunizi, well its not too big but its while and rectagalish lol. [22:40] z-e: I don't know where to start-- but that page with the chat log works for you or not but does reference the two issues you described above [22:40] kansan: do you have any package managers (apt-get, aptitude, adept, synaptic, etc..) open? [22:41] Scunizi, White, sorry * [22:41] hi everyone, i'm using VI to edit a txt file, what's the command to delete an entire line ? (instead of having to backspace the entire thing?) [22:41] ddrj: dd [22:41] thanks prince_jammys :D [22:41] redvamp128, are you talking about UNKNOWNv4 <-> UNKNOWNv4 - ARP - 0.0.0.0 ?????? [22:41] ddrj: colon first, of course [22:41] z-e: yes [22:41] !desklet/bye [22:41] Sorry, I don't know anything about desklet/bye [22:41] ddrj: err, scrap that [22:42] GaryDarko: well.. I'll say that the problem is most likely that your monitor isn't telling the card its native resolution and frequency .. I can have ubottu give you a link that might help you out.. something else to try.. if you want. [22:42] hi i'am new my name is mike [22:42] ciaoa tutti [22:42] !resolution > GaryDarko [22:42] GaryDarko, please see my private message [22:42] hehehe the dd worked fine prince_jammys, also one more question to save the file? [22:42] !it | pietro_ [22:42] pietro_: 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) [22:42] ddrj: :w filename [22:42] thanks :D [22:42] redvamp128, they are talking about something different... [22:43] is there a way i can configure mysql server from the command line? i am scripting its installation so i cant be there to use dpkg ui [22:43] Scunizi, but if that were the problem after i enable the graphics driver wouldnt i just resize the resolution myself ? and the nreboot ?? [22:43] GaryDarko: no.. it wouldn't know how [22:43] ciao [22:43] ddr how do you like linux [22:43] ciao [22:43] I'm sure most are familiar with the dnsmasq technique to cache dns requests locally. I have not been successful in configuring this to work with a wireless device. Can someone offer some insight on what could be the issue? Seems it doesn't respond to wlan0 (but works great with eth0) [22:43] pietro_: have fun [22:44] i have a HP DEskjet F4180 printer, how can i print a text file with lpr command ? [22:44] redvamp128, they are used similar words about different things... so, thanks again... [22:44] Scunizi, well im tierd and ive been online trying to figure out my problem for about 4 or 5 hours now lol so im tierd and im just giving up :D thanks though, goodbye. [22:44] My AP is a little far away and I'm connected at 1Mb/s. This is causing dns resolving to be painfully slow. What are my options? [22:44] Scunizi, GaryDarko sorry for coming in to the middle of the conversation is the problem with a 6600GT card? [22:44] GaryDarko: with the driver installed and a reboot done.. if the monitor reports what it can do then all is well and works.. otherwise you get a black screen or a terminal prompt.. .good luck [22:44] corey__: fix your network [22:45] anyone here use Dropbox? [22:45] BCampbell: yes.. not sure if it's agp or pci ,, ad in or built in [22:45] !anyone | KenBW2 [22:45] KenBW2: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..." Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out? [22:45] corey__, you could do something crazy and set up a repeater bridge w/ a second wireless router using dd-wrt firmware... [22:45] ortsvorsteher: good point [22:45] corey__: it sounds weird that wireless wouldn't use the dns cache [22:45] :) [22:45] BCampbell: it's GaryDarko's but looks like he's left the room. [22:45] corey__, move the ap... add a wireless repeater, stronger wireless adapter [22:45] Scunizi, ok, i've got the same card, thought I might be able to help..but see he's gone [22:45] gordonjcp, my network works great. what are you referring towards? [22:45] how can I save a picture in two colours format (black and white, not gray scale)? [22:46] BCampbell: yea.. I have one on the shelf too.. agp.. like it but new motherboard doesn't take agp [22:46] my usb flash drive isnt working [22:46] corey__: well, if your network is that slow that it's causing DNS problems, you should concentrate on that [22:46] whats the problem? [22:46] corey__: have you tried any other dns caching system? I think there are a couple of them [22:46] sometimes it works sometimes it dosent [22:46] Sylphid, sure money is the answer to all problems, but there should be a fix applied to dnsmasq to work with wireless devices. [22:46] gordonjcp: 1 Mb/s is slow? so linux can't be used on dial up? [22:46] my usb flash drive isnt working, it works sometimes but it isnt working now, what do i do? [22:47] corey__, its not a matter of bandwidth its a matter of latency [22:47] Slart: no, but if his wifi connection has dropped down to that speed that's symptomatic of other problems [22:47] gordonjcp, active downloads are over 300Kb/s on the wireless connection, but most of the time is spent resolving the address. So I'd like to think my network is NOT br0ken. [22:47] my usb flash drive isnt working, it works sometimes but it isnt working now, what do i do? [22:47] corey__: hmm, okay, so it's taking forever to resolve IP addresses? [22:47] heya, what's the common way of installing missing modules for php5 through aptitude on ubuntu server? [22:48] Do any know how protect Ubuntu 8.10 from ARP poison? [22:48] corey__, yeah, but do you know if there are any packet errors over the wireless link? [22:48] corey__, is your dns server set to your routers ip? [22:48] corey__: you could try using "dig @ " to test your local DNS server [22:48] Sylphid, yes.. it's the wireless latency that is causing the dns requests to drop and fail. [22:48] my usb flash drive isnt working, it works sometimes but it isnt working now, what do i do? [22:48] i have a HP DEskjet F4180 printer, how can i print a text file with lpr command ? [22:48] corey__: it's possible that your ISPs DNS is knackered and isn't responding properly [22:48] corey__: how long does a simple "host www.google.com" take? [22:49] how would i go about syncing the .purple folder between folders using Dropbox? [22:49] corey__: have you tried using opendns servers? [22:49] Sylphid, I've configured my dns to that of OpenDNS. all tests work fine except for the > ~200ms resolve time each request. [22:49] corey__, you could try a home made reflector to put on your ap's antenna although its likely the signal issue is on the adapters end [22:49] marcel: i assume you tried 'lpr filename' and it didn't print [22:49] yes [22:49] didn't print [22:50] corey__, 200ms isnt great but its not horrible [22:50] i must to specify something, but i don't know what [22:50] Sylphid, unfortunately I could not try that idea since I'm out of foil right now. [22:50] !who | marcel [22:50] marcel: As you can see, this is a large channel. If you're speaking to someone in particular, please put their nickname in what you say (use !tab), or else messages get lost and it becomes confusing :) [22:50] Davedan: good question, "apt-config dump" contains a dpkg post-invoke hook (see: man apt.conf); you still would have to figure out if packages were installed, upgraded or removed though... so, maybe. with a little bash magic? [22:51] ubottu: Ok [22:51] You're welcome! But keep in mind I'm just a bot ;-) [22:51] howdy, i was wondering if anyone knew how to do a backup of all my files and settings? So that if something should ever happen and i destroy my machine i can install fresh and import my settings and files? [22:51] fiftyone: copy your home folder [22:51] !backup | fiftyone [22:51] fiftyone: There are many ways to back your system up.

I accidentaly ran sudo chmod -R 664 $HOME and now I can't do anything. I can't even cd to my $HOME [22:53] Schuenemann: you forgot to set execute rights on your home [22:53] Schuenemann: make your home dir 755 for starters (non-recursive) [22:53] how do I get php scripts to run in apache? [22:54] ortsvorsteher, Do I need execute to cd? [22:54] Schuenemann: try to boot in recovery mode and set execute rights on your home [22:54] ok, I did it [22:54] I can access it now [22:54] should I do it -R? [22:55] Imaginativeone: enable php module [22:55] Schuenemann: yes, for cd is execute rights needed [22:55] Schuenemann: after what you've already done, i'd say yes [22:55] corey__, whats in /etc/resolv.conf [22:55] Schuenemann: at least the directories [22:55] Schuenemann: if you would like to set recursively your home to execute rights, you can use -R [22:55] Is there a program to put photo's together into a slide show.. maybe incorporate sound and possibly video clips?? [22:56] I compiled a really great newbie linux guide in tomboy notes its realy cool because whatever you need it's right there on your desktop ( command line and stuff) i made it for myself but i think alot of people coud benifet from it, is there a way to export it from tomboy i see here only export as html [22:56] Sylphid, a list of my name servers. starting with localhost followed by the two opendns address and lastly my router's [22:56] hey all anyone know of a linux face recognition login project? [22:56] Scunizi: a simple slideshow can be created in a pdf.. with video it gets harder.. perhaps something in flash? [22:56] Schuenemann: this will change only the directories: find "$HOME" -type d -exec chmod 755 {} \; [22:56] Do any know how be able to protect Ubuntu 8.10 from ARP poison? [22:56] prince_jammys, I already did to everything. Seems ok now [22:56] Thanks [22:57] Schuenemann: now all your files are executable [22:57] sigh... [22:57] Slart: yea.. I"ve thought of that.. but ultimately I'd like to burn to a dvd for relatives [22:57] is it undoable? [22:57] hi everyone ~ good morning [22:57] Scunizi: picasa makes that pretty painless.. don't think you'll get videos though [22:57] Schuenemann: no. you can go through the files you don't want to be executable and make them 644 [22:57] that reminds me i need to check out picassa [22:58] hey all anyone know of a linux face recognition login project? [22:58] corey__, if you do an nslookup which server responds to the request... more specifically is the first server in /etc/resolve.conf the one that responds [22:58] prince_jammys, maybe I should set everything back to 664 and then 755 to directories? [22:58] Slart: true.. so does imagemagick.. it's the video part that's tricky.. Windows Movie maker does it and will output to mpeg or avi but I don't want to go there. [22:58] Schuenemann: that would have the same effect, yes [22:58] my usb flash drive isnt working, it works sometimes but it isnt working now, what do i do? === osxdude|laptop is now known as osxdude|l [22:58] !details | racecar56 [22:58] racecar56: Please give us full details. For example: "I have a problem with ..., I'm running Ubuntu version .... When I try to do ..., I get the following output: ..., but I expected it to do ..." [22:58] ok [22:58] Does anyone know of any packages in Ubuntu that serve as a sort of "web proxy?" [22:59] this is what i get: [22:59] squid [22:59] thats a proxy package thats pretty standard on GNU/Linux [22:59] Sylphid, good hint. I see that opendns responds first. [22:59] prince_jammys, that command you told me will do it for directories? [22:59] racecar56: if it's a lot use pastebin [22:59] Scunizi: "mencoder" can create videos from images and/or other videos; and you can add audio as well, takes a bit of reading and experimenting [22:59] Schuenemann: yes === felix_da_catz is now known as felix-da-catz_zz [23:00] skybound: is there a gui front end for it? [23:00] zleap: thanks but I'm not looking for a true proxy, but something I can go to through my proxy to access sites I couldn't normally access. Something to "mirror" the site on a request basis [23:00] my flash drive... when i plug it in it just dosen't do anything. i'm on ubuntu 8.10 and i get this on dmesg: http://paste.ubuntu.com/113333/ but i expected it to work as in be mount-able. [23:00] ah so a cache proxy thingy [23:00] thats good? [23:00] corey__, if you move the computer closer to the AP does it work better? [23:00] zleap: I guess, I'm really not sure what you call that sorta thing [23:00] cafree: ah.. something like a.. local mirror creator thingy [23:00] nor me [23:00] really better racecar56 :) [23:00] Slart: haha, yes, exactly [23:00] kay [23:01] Hey all, I just updated my kernel to the latest stable and my nvidia graphics don't work anymore...

I could probably write my own, but I'm sure I'm not the first guy to want this [23:02] Scunizi: seems so, but i never used any of them: http://www.mplayerhq.hu/design7/projects.html [23:02] the output of crontab's dont go anywhere and my logs arefull of: My unqualified host name (localhost) unknown; [23:02] prince_jammys, things are messed. I see a lot of ??? instead of information if I do a ls -la $HOME [23:02] corey__, try bypassing dns and open a site by ip to see if you have the same problem [23:02] skybound: thanks I'll look at them [23:03] what is the root mail in ubuntu?

[23:03] ok [23:03] Schuenemann: hmm [23:04] hi guys it appears my resolution got knocked out of place after rebooting my computer. How can I reset it back to default 1024x678? [23:04] If I want a package to reinstall AND put back its original .conf files, how can I do that with aptitude or apt-get? [23:04] Somehow I installed ubuntu to think I want the uk-english dictionary. How can I change it to us-english? [23:04] or maybe it's just firefox [23:04] my flash drive... when i plug it in it just dosen't do anything. i'm on ubuntu 8.10 and i get this on dmesg: http://paste.ubuntu.com/113333/ but i expected it to work as in be mount-able. [23:05] If I want to reinstall a package, AND have it actually reput its default conf files, how can I tell apt to do this?

[23:06] i like transmission [23:06] EmperorVelo: deluge [23:06] deluge ftw [23:06] getdeb.net has debs [23:06] prince_jammys: i found the answer with lpr filename ... [23:06] i dont usually fool with torrents [23:06] dxdt, you can completely remove the package from synaptic manager, which will remove config files, then reinstall [23:06] how i can mount HDD if i dont have windows? [23:06] +1 Deluge [23:06] marcel: cool. i hope the help file was useful [23:06] but if i do i have a hardy heron virtual machine [23:06] mrwes: not an option, Xorg isn't installd [23:06] Schuenemann: so what's going on?

[23:07] racecar56: It may be mountable, however the output in dmesg is not very hopeful. Does "fdisk -l /dev/sdg" list the partition(s) on the drive? [23:07] prince_jammys: and now lpr filename .... works fine [23:07] Does deluge support RSS? [23:08] prince_jammys: the printer must to be connected on serial port / parallel port don't work [23:08] when i want mount my ntfs external hard disk it drops error and say that i need connect it to windows [23:08] oh man.. now I have to find out how to make irssi highligh Slart but not Slartan..go go gadget man page [23:08] the /dev thing never even exists [23:08] Schuenemann: get out of your home, and 'ls -ld /home/youruser' [23:08] it kills it [23:08] skybound: http://lives.sourceforge.net/index.php?do=features [23:08] haha get out your home..

Does anyone know, when sun's java 1.6.0_12 will be integrated for ubuntu 64bit? === Schu is now known as Schuenemann [23:12] @oCean_, it dosen't work on other OS === anything is now known as Schuenemann- [23:13] i even tried plugging it in a windows (not that i knew how to use it) and it didnt do anything [23:13] can someone help me out with pulseaudio? can't get the sound server to run [23:13] racecar56: but you expect it to work in good ol' linux? [23:13] Schuenemann: now do what you were going to do (supercareful) from OUTSIDE the directory [23:13] I am looking for a semi-translucent weather plasmoid for kde 4.2 any ideas? [23:13] racecar56: I think the device is kaputt :/ [23:13] ignore, I was still in lftp :) [23:13] prince_jammys, you mean chmod -R 664 /home/otto [23:14] Sylphid, I gave up hope with dnsmasq and configured dnscache. works great!! [23:14] Schuenemann-: what's the current status of things in your dir? [23:14] is anyone familiar with the mildly retarded and unintuitive "update-grub" utility? [23:14] prince_jammys, what exacly? [23:14] when i want mount my ntfs external hard disk it drops error and say that i need connect it to windows. how can i mount it in Ubuntu? [23:14] Schuenemann: the permissions [23:15] robf, moderately [23:15] Can anyone help me out configuring my Xorg.conf... I seriously read everything I could find on google, tryed everything, every damn drivers I could find, I just can't set this thing up correctly. (ATI 8500LE, tv-out ONLY - No vga or DVI) [23:15] Rencx: whats the exact error , paraphrasing sometimes make thing seem odd [23:15] nickrud_: ok, I want NO altoptions. if I remove it, it just adds it back, if i leave it with the altoptions= blank I just have two kernel entries [23:15] oh noes [23:15] I want just 1 entry, nothing else, a single solitary entry [23:15] too bad its dead [23:15] robf: of wrong disconected hdd [23:15] if it is then thats bad cause its 4G [23:16] at least i dont have data on it [23:16] prince_jammys, http://pastebin.com/m6f5bdeb3 there [23:16] anyone know if ISOs are built daily, weekly, monthly, or just once? [23:16] Rencx: hrm... [23:16] so any idea nickrud_ ? [23:16] Robf you're trying to not have alternative (recovery) versions? [23:16] it looks as if /etc/network/interfaces lost entries for wireless -- network manager still shows all the right stuff -- how can i get NM to write everything back to the interfaces file? [23:16] yes [23:16] if I want sinle user mode [23:17] I'll boot vby hand from grub with single [23:17] Does anyone know, when sun's java 1.6.0_12 will be integrated for ubuntu 64bit? [23:17] I have been getting hangups in my gui for a few days now and I think i may have just found the problem... has anyone seen this before?: [23:17] [mi] EQ overflowing. The server is probably stuck in an infinite loop. [23:17] [mi] mieqenequeue: out-of-order valuator event; dropping. [23:17] other people who are mildly retarded use this box [23:17] robf, that's the #alternative=true/false option iirc [23:17] so I don't want things that they can select that needn't [23:17] robf: Unable to mount the volume [23:17] nickrud_: oh heh... still how unintutive... [23:17] Can anyone help me out configuring my Xorg.conf... I seriously read everything I could find on google, tryed everything, every damn drivers I could find, I just can't set this thing up correctly. (ATI 8500LE, tv-out ONLY - No vga or DVI) : http://pastebin.com/f1e4aca9b [23:17] Rencx: do me this [23:17] Schuenemann: ok, so everything is 755 [23:17] robf, you can also lock the alternatives, or password protect [23:17] Schuenemann: this is probably going to be fine. [23:18] prince_jammys, ok, I'll try [23:18] Rencx: run all the commands you're doing and copy paste both what you typed and the output so I can get ag rasp of the issue here [23:18] chmod 644 -R /home/otto [23:18] Schuenemann: don't run any commands [23:18] nickrud_: yeah I know, i just don't like clutter... [23:18] Schuenemann: no [23:18] ok [23:18] Schuenemann: don't do that [23:18] nickrud_: got enough IRL clutter, don't need it on my box [23:18] prince_jammys, but everything is executable [23:18] robf, I have to scroll though all my options :) [23:18] Schuenemann: all it means is that your common text files, etc. are all marked executable [23:18] nickrud_: sort of a minimalist gentoo user here... so trying to at least keep some sanity in the world of ubuntul ;) [23:18] robf: i dont use any commands i just plug in USB [23:19] Rencx: eh. [23:19] Rencx: try mounting it by hand [23:19] if its usb its prolly fat16 / fat32 one or the othr [23:19] Schuenemann: this will make all regular files non-executable: find "$HOME" -type f -exec chmod -x {} \; [23:19] robf: it is NTFS but removed without safely remove [23:19] aight... [23:19] mouth Rencx oh ok [23:19] Schuenemann: you need directories to be executable in order to access their contents [23:19] oops [23:20] Rencx: its flagged bad [23:20] Rencx: needs a windows disk check or whatever [23:20] like you powered down without unkmounting in windows [23:20] try forcing it? [23:20] robf: fsck will do windows checking [23:20] Rencx: robf a forced mount "mount -f" will do [23:20] Joker_-_, you should probably add a link to the log file /var/log/Xorg.0.log on a pastebin somewhere, of the failed startup. Usually some useful info there [23:20] Bsims: oh it will huh... nice [23:20] robf: so long as its not ntfs yeah [23:20] Bsims: its ntfs he said [23:20] How do I configure Amarok to be like rythmbox and just have one big list of songs instead of a tree? [23:21] nickrud_: it startups fine, It just doesnt shoot the damn screen on the TV [23:21] Bsims: though ntfs on a usb key is odd imho [23:21] nickrud_: If I had an error, I could troubleshoot... [23:21] Bsims: its safe to force a mount anyhow [23:21] robf: depends on the size of the drive... [23:21] Bsims: ah [23:21] robf: yeah its safe [23:21] heh Joker_-_ a point there ;) [23:21] Rencx: robf .. mount -f will do, really. [23:21] prince_jammys, it's over [23:21] so is anyone sure how to get a logitech quickcam messenger to work with ubuntu? i can get a video feed but its just static, which means that ubuntu is reading the camera, but not ... sumthing [23:21] oCean_: I know. [23:21] Schuenemann: as in ... ok? [23:21] nickrud_: I hate ATI. [23:21] oCean_: thats what I told him to do? [23:21] Rencx: do you know the devicename? See "dmesg" output [23:22] prince_jammys, no, as in the command finished heh. No output. How to check if it's ok? [23:22] robf: i see (now).. [23:22] anyone know if the official Ubuntu ISOs are built daily, weekly, monthly, or just once? [23:22] Schuenemann: see if you can access files and directories normally [23:22] binarymutant: once [23:22] oCean_: :p [23:22] binarydigit, each time there's a release (8.04, 8.04.1, etc) [23:22] nightrid3r, thanks :) [23:22] prince_jammys, I think it's ok. I can access dirs and regular files aren't executable [23:22] is 8.10 even safe to use [23:22] prince_jammys, thank you very much [23:22] Irritating Ibis or whatever [23:22] Schuenemann: now you know: 'chmod -R' can be VERY destructive [23:23] <_moro_bana_> is there any menu for screenn brightness, the hotkeys dont work, guesss they work for windows only? [23:23] prince_jammys, yeah, anything -R can, I guess [23:23] <_VIM_> 'irriating ibis' lolz [23:23] too many binary's in this channel [23:23] Schuenemann: true [23:23] <_VIM_> 8.04 ftw~!

[23:25] oCean_: shouldn't he fsck /dev/sdb1 [23:25] prince_jammys, I described here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=6653770 [23:25] Rencx: sudo [23:25] oCean_: fdisk -l /dev/sd [23:26] Rencx: start command with sudo [23:26] I'm using an MSI Wind U120 and the wireless never connects faster than 1 mbps, it's using ath9k driver. How do I get a faster connection? (I know it's not the router that's at fault) [23:26] Can someone shed some light on this: Why is there a 0.3.6 packagekit source package and a 0.3.13 binary package in Jaunty? It seems source was build successfully, why isn't it in the repositories? [23:26] robf, I don't think resume skills == ubuntu support, but I guess I'm wrong [23:26] See: https://edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/packagekit/0.3.6-0ubuntu5 [23:26] oCean_: sory... i see now Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System [23:26] /dev/sdb1 1 121601 976760001 7 HPFS/NTFS [23:26] Schuenemann: this normally has to do with the .ICEauthority file in your homedir [23:27] !pastebin | Rencx [23:27] Rencx: 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) [23:27] Rencx: great. Now try this: "mount -f -t ntfs-3g /dev/sdb1 /mnt" [23:27] prince_jammys, it was, once. I deleted and it went fine, but then it started again and didn't solve anymore. This idea of sharing /home partition was really bad [23:27] so is anyone sure how to get a logitech quickcam messenger to work with ubuntu? i can get a video feed but its just static, which means that ubuntu is reading the camera, but not ... sumthing [23:27] robf: trying the forced mount.. not fsck [23:27] Schuenemann: make sure it's owned by you, and chmod 600 ~/.ICEauthority [23:27] binarymutant: yeah i know. but I often stray from topic as to not go insane from countless hours of helping mugs in ##linux and #gentoo :p [23:27] oCean_: either way, needs to be /sdb1 not sdb, can mount a whole drive =s [23:27] can't [23:27] robf, I know the feeling [23:27] robf: arg, yes [23:28] Schuenemann: you may even move it to somewhere else (as backup) and i think it will be recreated [23:28] dixonionthedemon: how are you getting a video feed? I mean what software are you using? [23:28] prince_jammys, -rw------- 1 otto otto 7963 2009-02-03 19:58 .ICEauthority it's like this now [23:28] Schuenemann: that's good [23:28] idk [23:28] xorg detects DVI and VGA but not TV-OUT (S-Video) despite whatever I write in my config file... Please for god's sake someone save a guy from suicide. [23:28] robf: ow, but I used the /dev/sdb1 in the mount example :) .. in the fdisk -l the partion number is not necessary [23:29] in a bash script, what's the difference between using ">" or ">>" to output ? [23:29] oCean_: ntfs-3g: Unknown option '-f'. [23:29] oCean_: fdisk or fsck [23:29] Anyone get the ypop repository gpg key. I cant find it anywhere.?.

[23:31] prince_jammys, the idea of sharing home dir was suggested by slackware installation. It seems it sucks, though [23:31] oCean_: i didn't see the -l [23:31] oCean_: still dont work [23:31] but how would I get the sound working? [23:32] sounds simple I knwi [23:32] know, even [23:32] but I'm not too bright [23:32] Rencx: moment.. i have to scrollback :) [23:32] oCean_: I thought you confused fdisk with fsck for some reason and was like woah [23:32] Schuenemann: you should be able to get it to work. i see you changed your UID and GID [23:33] Schuenemann: are you able to sudo normally now? [23:33] prince_jammys, yeah, it made it work at that time. But then it happened again [23:33] hey everyone could i get some help with ubuntu server...i have no desktop enviroment [23:33] Wunderbar: its ok not being bright, many special needs students use kubuntu [23:33] prince_jammys, yes. Everything looks fine, except that first login option does not work [23:33] slacker_nl: Roger that, I've been using ">>" solely but now I know the difference... Thanks again for helping out ;-) [23:33] Wunderbar: tell use what your soundcard is an what it does/doesn't and maybe we can help you [23:33] Wunderbar: but sound usually works out of the box.... what kinda sound device ya got? [23:33] BassKozz: np [23:34] whatever sound card is usually provided with a thinkpad t61 [23:34] has anyone upgraded from hardy heron to ignorant ibis and not failed completely? [23:34] Wunderbar: laptop? hrm no clue [23:34] =\ [23:34] * brianwillis1984 wants to know if anyone knows much about ubuntu server [23:34] ok, this is odd === dixonionthedemon is now known as dixon [23:34] hello, can somebody help me with pango error.. : Pango-CRITICAL **: _pango_engine_shape_covers: assertion `PANGO_IS_FONT (font)' failed [23:34] sound with amarok works fine [23:34] Wunderbar: lspci in a terminal will list your card [23:34] but when I try and use audacious thats when I have problems [23:35] brianwillis1984: what about it? [23:35] same with smplayer === dixon is now known as dixon2008 [23:35] Wunderbar: hrm. you telling them to use the right mixer? [23:35] dixon2008: why don't you pastebin lsusb [23:35] robf: Warty->Jaunty, minor problems.... [23:35] brian: install gnome [23:35] Rencx: first, run the command without the -f I think it should come up with the error about not cleanly unmounted, but not sure [23:35] oiy... if anyone knows how to get the logitech quickcam messenger to work plz pm me [23:35] lock: how and where new to ubuntu and servers all together [23:36] MarkusT: eh? no clue those namen... I'm using 8 something and hit the lil upgrade to 8.10 ii and it shat itself [23:36] broke X all over [23:36] Schuenemann: i see you have fluxbox. does fluxbox work properly for both distros? [23:36] prolly a driver issue [23:36] my network tools has disappoint from admin options can any one help [23:36] oCean_: now it says: "System policy prevents mounting internal media" when i write password it again show me error. [23:36] robf: 4.10 -> 9.04 [23:36] prince_jammys, only slackware has it. It's working fine [23:36] let me see here, i did that 4 days ago newb myself [23:36] MarkusT: 9.04? [23:36] I thought it was at 8.10 [23:36] Rencx: Internal media? [23:36] weird [23:36] prince_jammys, ubuntu and fedora have gnome, slackware has fluxbox and debian has none yet [23:37] disappeared i ment [23:37] oCean_: can you write comand? [23:37] robf: i dont have any desktop enviroment on my ubuntu server think u could help? [23:37] brianwillis1984: uhm.. why would you want one? [23:37] O.o [23:37] robf: 9.04 is the development version and will be finished in April 09 (hence 9.04) [23:37] oCean_: it started to show this code page [23:37] MarkusT: ah ha... well when I hit upgrade... it breaks everything [23:38] Does anyone know which kernel package I need to run Ubuntu 8.10 in a XEN domU? There's no one ending in -xen but there's a linux-image-2.6.27-7-virtual pkg. Is that xen aware? [23:38] robf: im still a noob and a noob to server all together? [23:38] is there soemthing i need to be aware of in the 8.0whatever HH to 8.10 [23:38] Rencx: I think I got the right option to force.. [23:38] Rencx: "mount -t ntfs-3g /dev/sdb1 /mnt -o force" <-- that's the forced mount [23:38] brianwillis1984: newb to english as well? anyhow, yeh, uhm. I'm sure they have a meta package for gnome just apt-get it? [23:38] Rencx: start with sudo [23:38] lemme see [23:38] write something like "sudo apt-get -i gnome-desktop-environment" [23:38] robf: No. Just use the update-manager [23:39] i think thats what i did [23:39] i am using uuntu 8.10 [23:39] total newb here so .... [23:39] *ubuntu [23:39] Can someone shed some light on this: Why is there a 0.3.6 packagekit source package and a 0.3.13 binary package in Jaunty? It seems source was build successfully, why isn't it in the repositories? [23:39] does any one know how to get network options back in admin options its disappeared [23:40] !pastebin [23:40] 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) [23:40] oCean_: here is result... http://paste.ubuntu.com/113385/ [23:40] did that help brian? [23:40] hi whats the difference between GDM GTK 1.x 2.x ?? [23:41] Schuenemann: i'd look around the web. there's others who have had your problem. Eg: google sharing /home directory many distros .ICEauthority [23:41] Rencx: seems even a forced mount command does not like the filesystem on the disk [23:42] Schuenemann: there's a few threads with people with your problem. careful with all the random crap code that's out there. [23:42] prince_jammys, I found a lot of entries for that error message, but none about having many distros [23:42] oCean_: only way is put this hard drive to windows and then safely remove? [23:42] any one how do i get network tools option back in admin tab [23:42] prince_jammys, haha yeah. After this last one I ran, I'll be a lot more careful from now [23:42] Schuenemann: that google search i pasted will show you some people with your problem [23:42] Rencx: yes so it seems... Sometimes the forced mount option works, though [23:43] can anyone help with wireless dns [23:43] hey what do you guys use for a torrent client, deluge? [23:43] oCean_: ok ty for trying to help me.. [23:43] Rencx: no problem. === wired is now known as Guest84068 [23:44] anyone know what the difference (when themeing ) is between gdm gtk 1.x and gtk 2.x? [23:44] prince_jammys, it's weird only ubuntu has problems with that [23:44] any one hear me [23:44] Schuenemann: accessing data files should be easy across distros. it's the stupid dotfiles for applications/desktop environments that's a pain [23:45] Hello. Which kernel package do I need to run Ubuntu 8.10 in a XEN domU? linux-image-virtual? [23:46] take it no one knows the answer to my question [23:46] anyone know what the difference (when themeing ) is between gdm gtk 1.x and gtk 2.x? [23:46] seems like no one knows fiftyone [23:48] prince_jammys, what is the difference between choosing GNOME or that first option (Xclient something)? Perhaps it's not even worth looking so much for a solution if GNOME still logs in [23:48] Schuenemann: first option of what [23:48] prince_jammys, session type [23:48] Schuenemann: different desktop environments [23:48] oordez: right click on System in your toolbar -- then click on Administration and see wether Network Tools is checked [23:49] prince_jammys, what changes? I don't remember anything different [23:49] Schuenemann: nothing all that important. mostly cosmetic stuff, some keyboard shortcuts... [23:49] "Execute script Xclient" is the name [23:50] Schuenemann: it's important to some people, but you don't seem to care. try installing fluxbox in ubuntu and see if it works [23:50] sudo apt-get install fluxbox [23:50] you already have it in your other distro [23:50] <_moro_bana_> whats inside usenet? [23:51] prince_jammys, why? just to test? [23:51] Schuenemann: well, if you don't care about running gnome, and gnome is the one causing a problem ... [23:51] Schuenemann: a lazy "fix" would be just not to run gnome, unless you feel like troubleshooting it [23:51] That's not too helpful [23:52] skeebo: ok, you take over. [23:52] prince_jammys, maybe I should install ubuntu again [23:52] Schuenemann: i wouldn't [23:53] prince_jammys, it would reinstall ubuntu... [23:53] Schuenemann: what would? [23:54] prince_jammys, sorry, I mean it would reinstall gnome === bazhang_ is now known as bazhang [23:54] Schuenemann: but why? there's probably nothing wrong with gnome. you just have to figure out how to get gnome to load properly across distros ... or use something else [23:55] how do I force kill an application? [23:55] gmap: first try killing it normally [23:55] pkill nameofapp [23:55] how can I see a list of running apps [23:55] i dont know the name of the app exactly [23:56] gmap: ps -ef [23:56] gmap: or if the app is on the desktop-- add to panel the force-quit and click it then the window. [23:56] i don't remember how gnome does it, but 'ps aux' will show you all processes [23:56] prince_jammys, well, I guess I'll stick with the session type I'm using. If things get worse (like when I install a desktop environment for debian), I'll give up this idea of sharing /home === psychaos is now known as alicantimur [23:57] redvamp128 how do I add to panel the force-quite? [23:57] quit* [23:58] gmap: find a blank space on your taskbar-- right click choose add to panel -- then find force quit [23:58] gmap: you should already have an entry in the menus to view all processes [23:59] ok thanks
