[00:00] FFForever, try using 'fdisk -l /dev/blah' where 'blah' is your Windows-containing HD [00:00] (it might be an 'sdx', like 'sda) [00:00] fdisk -l will list the partitions; from that list, you identify the types, and the first is usually windows' boot [00:00] not listed =\ [00:01] http://pastebin.com/d7a3db613 its a 30gb partition === idleone is now known as IdleOne [00:22] how do i add windows 7? [00:22] (2 grub) [00:22] <|ns|nR8> install windows 7 then do a repair grub [00:23] this is not working =\, title Windows-7 root (0,6) chainloader +1 [00:23] how do i repair grub? [00:23] <|ns|nR8> boot from ubuntu cd [00:23] i am in linux? [00:24] i don't have the ubuntu cd @ hand but i do have my jaunty install open and running =) [00:24] <|ns|nR8> so you installed windows first ? [00:24] <|ns|nR8> it should of auto added windows 7 to grub [00:24] |ns|nR8, nah i already reinstalled grub =) [00:24] FFForver: root (0,6) looks somewhat invalid to me [00:25] how do i run the automatic grub thingie? [00:25] Which of those NTFS partitions is the one you actually want? [00:25] partition 6 [00:25] sda6 [00:26] That's marked as linux [00:26] its ntfs windows-7 style? [00:26] <|ns|nR8> these instructions always work for me http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/ubuntu/reinstall-ubuntu-grub-bootloader-after-windows-wipes-it-out/ [00:26] FFForver: if the pastebin from before is still valid, your bootable Windows is on /dev/sda3 [00:27] how do you know [00:27] and yes its still valid [00:27] it's the only partition marked bootable [00:27] (for one) [00:27] Thus, in grub terminology, you should say "root (hd0,2)" [00:27] its a 30.5gb partition [00:27] and it's an NTFS file system [00:27] its marked extended =\ [00:27] doh! :-) [00:28] i believe windows is not so good at starting from an ext [00:28] =P [00:28] you should be able to move its contents to a primary partition, however [00:28] FFForver: huh? Yes, you have an extended partition. No, the Windows partitions aren't in it [00:28] (but it might require some serious juggling with dd) [00:29] erm [00:29] maxb, it was just empty space and i let windows make the partitions it needed a 203mb and a 30.5gb partition it made [00:29] yeah, actually, looking at the list again, it's /dev/sda2 that's your ext [00:29] and /dev/sda3 isn't "in" that [00:29] i don't see why i have so many partitions [00:29] (0, 1, 2, 3 are primaries) [00:29] (4+ is extendeds) [00:29] Whoa! dd-ing your fs-es around is *seriously* voodoo, and liable to cause extra problems for windows [00:30] sda 1 should be /, sda 2 should be swap, sda 3 should be /home the rest are uhh windows? [00:30] maxb's caution is very a propros [00:30] propos even [00:30] so 1-3 are linux [00:30] wtf are the other 3? [00:30] sda1, judging by size, is probably boot [00:31] anyway, i gotta make dinner, good luck! maxb knows what he's talking about [00:31] would sda4 be windows (i am looking for a 30gb partition) [00:31] FFForver: Please could you run "blkid -g; blkid" as root, and pastebin the output? [00:32] http://pastebin.com/d3068c7a8 [00:33] FFForver: run like that, the sudo only applied to the first command - please "sudo blkid" and see if it reports any more [00:33] http://pastebin.com/d6ffb1c6d [00:34] Right, so, you have two Linux data partitions, sda1 and sda6 [00:34] You have one Linux swapspace partition, sda5 [00:34] You have two Windows partitions, sda3 and sda4 [00:35] You have one extended partition, sda2, which CONTAINS sda5 and sda6 [00:35] what is an extended partition? [00:35] The basic format of a partition table can contain only 4 partitions [00:35] An extended partition escapes this limit by containing other partitions [00:36] cool? [00:36] The asterisk in the fdisk -l output shows sda3 is marked as bootable. In grub terminology this is (hd0,2) [00:37] Grub numbers the partitions starting at zero, hence 2, not 3 [00:38] title Windows-7 root (hd0, 2) chainloader +1 [00:38] like that? [00:38] there must not be a space inside the root specification [00:38] so root(hd0,2) [00:38] or root (hd0,2) [00:39] the last one [00:40] kk [00:40] here goes nothing =P [00:40] brb [01:47] <|newbie|> i have installed jaunty + kde 4.2, when i try to enter in KDE stop on background [01:47] <|newbie|> i have nvidia 180 [01:50] <|newbie|> anyidea [01:50] <|newbie|> plz help me [01:57] <|newbie|> does anybody here....help me [01:59] you probably already know this, but you should be able to switch to a text terminal with ALT+Fx (1..4 or whatever) [01:59] and from there, of course, you can diagnose all sorts of crap [02:00] as for the problems you might be having, use the simplest video driver possible (vesa or something like that) and go for a low, safe resolution like 640x480/800x600/1024x768 [02:00] but surely the best place to start digging is in a log of some sort (sorry, can't say off the top of my head where that log would be or what it would be called) [02:02] sorry if my suggestions are too generic, but i'm not familiar with 'nvidia 180' [02:02] |newbie|: bug 326344 [02:03] Launchpad bug 326344 in xorg-server "compiz/kwin freezes on login as of xorg-server 1.5.99.902-0ubuntu2" [Critical,Fix released] https://launchpad.net/bugs/326344 [02:03] This is fixed; you will just need to wait for the update to propogate to your mirror, and run an upgrade.

[03:14] It just says it can't display anything on my second monitor [03:16] how do i disable ipv6 in jaunty? [03:18] diginux: did you see my reply in the previous channel? [03:19] i don't think ip6 is enabled by default [03:20] my network manager only shows ipv4 and if i do an ifconfig, i only see v4 addresses [03:21] IPV6 is enabled by default. [03:21] To disable it, echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv6/conf/all/disable_ipv6 [03:27] IntuitiveNipple: wont that info be lost when i reboot?

[03:38] I think everyone is dead [03:39] Well, if the pwd is the ipv6 directory, there's some ipv6 there [03:42] yes, i need to disable it [03:42] can i put something in grub? === KterinK is now known as dou213 [04:16] is there a way other than ifconfig or network manager to see if ipv6 is actually running? [04:19] burner: ping ::1? [04:19] ping: unknown host ::1 [04:20] ok, i don't need to disable it, i don't even use it? or... I should disable because I don't even use it? [04:20] It doesn't matter [04:21] only .45% of the online people in the us are using it anyways [04:21] for sure... I'd be l33t and cool if I did though right? I doubt my netgear can kick up ipv6 dhcp though :\ [04:26] burner: IPv6 slows down DNS requests [04:29] I've had horror stories of ipv6 on Vista causing all kinds of network slowdown [04:29] * burner has nightmares about Vista sometimes [04:41] anyone know if compiz 0.8 will be included in 9.04? [04:47] no clue on that one... sorry [05:26] 2.6.28-7 has a graphics regression, so if you have intel gm4500 graphics you might want to wait. 2.6.28-6 works though. [05:26] I have opened a launchpad bug. [05:47] what is the command to start the installer program? [06:16] wow, serious io problems [06:16] heavy IO == desktop completely freezes === bluesmoke is now known as Amaranth [06:43] how do i play mkv files?, the default movie player is laggy =\ [06:44] and vlc shows no video =( [06:48] anyone know a ppa for 9.04 with vlc beta =P [06:56] I'm running Alpha 4 with all the latest updates, and suspend does not work for me. pm-suspend does not return anything (it just exits), and clicking 'suspend' in Gnome does nothing. Is there a known workaround, or a bug report, or a known reason why it isn't working? Thanks. [06:57] FFForever: 9.04 seems to have graphics performance issues, at least on my intel 4500 gfx card [06:57] 8.10 did not exhibit these problems [06:57] SwedeMike: enable UXA [06:58] Amaranth: add "AccelMethod UXA" to xorg.conf and that's it? [06:58] Option "AccelMethod" "UXA" [06:58] will do that when I come home. [06:59] thanks for the pointer [06:59] that'll get you performance improvements and redirected direct rendering (3D working great with compiz) [07:00] works fine 4 me on other video formats =P [07:00] ill give mplayer a shot in a moment =) [07:01] mplayer: Depends: libx264-59 (>= 1:0.svn20080408) but it is not installable [07:01] SwedeMike: well its being tested in jaunty [07:01] i cant install mplayer....

Do you want to know any other h/w specs? [07:05] Happens with Intrepid. [07:05] * DanaG joins #ubuntu, too.

I found something obscure, and it looks like the bug's only affecting 64-bit. [07:07] Peddy: check for bios updates [07:07] maco, for the video card or motherboard? [07:07] mobo [07:08] mobo bios bugs can cause weird things, and 32v64 hardware incompatibility falls into that category [07:08] maco, my mobo BIOS rev is the latest :/ [07:10] the suspend 'quirk-checker' says nvidia binary driver is unsupported, but it's always worked in previous releases. Also, when I use nv instead of nvidia, it still fails. === idleone is now known as IdleOne [07:13] Yep, 'nv' definitely doesn't work either.

[13:05] yes, it will install a basic system like the live cd, it just does it by installing the debs instead of copying the cd itself [13:06] it is only that if you have the network you can also apply updates on the fly [13:06] every time and i run "Selec and install software" it fails [13:06] is there a log i can look at [13:07] /var/log/installer or it may be /target/var/log/installer [13:10] hrmmm [13:11] ill try alpha 4 tomorrow [13:12] don't try it on your main/production machine unless you know how to fix it [13:25] i just pulled out an old IBM T40 from the cupboard and installed Jaunty Alpha 4 on it.

In the short term, this will again cause increased instability for some users while the proprietary video drivers catch up.

[14:58] jpedroza, you have been able to do that for a while now [14:58] you dont have to enable any kind of special effects. if your system can handle it, you should feel an immediate performance boost from just picking opengl over anything else you may get natively [14:59] bardyr: When I run sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx-180 I still get the message that all my xorg packages will be removed. [14:59] jpedroza, sudo apt-get update ? [14:59] bardyr: done [15:00] bardyr: and upgrade as well [15:00] bardyr: sO EVERYTHING SHOULD BE CURRENT [15:00] Sorry, caps lock [15:00] wait for updated nvidia packages [15:01] how do i disable ipv6 in jaunty? [15:01] gnomefreak, i have been able to install nvidia-glx-180 without any problems [15:01] I have installed the binary drivers from nvidia's site and set IgnoraABI in my xorg.conf file, but I am getting an X freeze when I try and launch any apps. [15:02] and why would anyone ever build ipv6 into the kernel instead of having it as a module like it was before? [15:02] jpedroza, use the 180.27 driver it supports the new x server [15:02] bardyr: Do I still need to set IgnoreABI? [15:02] jpedroza, no [15:03] bardyr: I installed 180.27 and that is what started the freeze issue. [15:03] jpedroza, what gfx card do you have? [15:03] bardyr: 8600M [15:03] jpedroza, weird 180.27 has been the best driver for my 7.6k go card ever [15:04] diginux: to improve speed, MOST modules are getting into the kernel === bluesmoke_ is now known as Amaranth [15:05] bardyr: Did you install from nvidia script or apt? [15:05] BUGabundo: but like 1% of the population probably uses ipv6 ? [15:05] BUGabundo: and there should at least be a simple way to disable it [15:08] diginux: IF I remember correctly, you can disable IPv6 in the config scripts for the interface [15:09] jpedroza: any idea where to look? i have tried everything, asked here, on #ubuntu, on forums, googled, etc. [15:09] !ipv6 [15:09] 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 [15:09] ubottu: that doesnt talk about jaunty, that article assumes ipv6 is a module, not built in like it is now [15:09] Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) [15:10] ughh [15:10] Pici: ^^ [15:10] LOL [15:10] i need to talk to an intelligent person and not a bot [15:10] diginux: Look in /etc/sysconfig/netwrok-scripts [15:10] diginux: even if just 1% uses it, in the future more and more will use it [15:11] if some user in two years gets his hands on a Jaunty CD, why shouldn't he have ipv6 [15:11] ? [15:11] and what do you have against it ? === custombrush_ is now known as custombrush [15:11] BUGabundo: it broke my system, that's what :) [15:11] How so? [15:11] Pici: dns won't work because my isp's dns doesn't support ipv6 [15:12] diginux: file a bug then [15:13] it *should* work [15:13] actually there's alredy a bug opened for that [15:13] BUGabundo: im not sure its a bug, but rather my isp not playing nicely [15:13] ipv6 being enabled shouldn't break anything if your isp doesn't support it. [15:13] pici but it does [15:13] there have been _several_ users reporting so [15:13] jpedroza, apt [15:13] Pici: well if i change to a diff dns server that supports ipv6, everything works, if i use my usual dns but do something like wget -4, or change firefox to use ipv4 then everything works too [15:14] I think its more routers then ISPs [15:14] but still [15:14] BUGabundo: disagree, my testing would say otherwise [15:14] okay [15:14] comment that on the bug then [15:14] i will, do you have a link?> [15:15] google ? [15:15] ive actually found another major bug, kernel 2.6.28-7-generic does not work with encrypted filesystems, when it boots it just sits there and doesnt give a password prompt [15:15] http://www.google.com/search?q=bugs+launchpad+ipv6&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&aq=t&rls=com.ubuntu:en-US:unofficial&client=firefox-a [15:15] BUGabundo: ok ill google, you made it sound like you had it handy :) [15:15] bug 155393 [15:16] Launchpad bug 155393 in ubuntu "Internet extremely slow in Gutsy/Intrepid after upgrade" [Undecided,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/155393 [15:16] bug 313218 [15:16] Launchpad bug 313218 in glibc "IPV6 causes slow internet access" [Critical,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/313218 [15:16] bug 291085 [15:16] Launchpad bug 291085 in network-manager "web browsing extremely slow" [Undecided,Incomplete] https://launchpad.net/bugs/291085 [15:16] bug 313218 jaunty [15:16] its even nominated https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/jaunty/+nominations [15:18] bardyr: Looks like whatever update happened to xorg this morning (on my machine anyway) has fixed the issue I was having. kde is working great now,a nd apps will launch. This is with nvidia 180.27 and IgnoreABI switched off. [15:19] jpedroza, their was a problem with xorg/compiz and the nvidia driver that got fixed with todays updates [15:22] looking for an app that allow me to broadcast my desktop! suggestions? [15:23] libcaca + twitter? [15:23] BUGabundo: I have a friend who just points his webcam at the monitor, then streams that === [perry] is now known as [pErry] [15:24] @genii cool idea! but not what my friend is looking for [15:25] bardyr: Looks like that was my prob, cause once again it is rock solid. :) [15:25] BUGabundo, VLC [15:26] Woah, 118 updates. [15:34] anyone having a problem on the server install not being able to select anything??? i boot the .iso, then select install ubuntu server, then i get to the screen where i select my language and i cant do anything...no up or down, and cant select english, but the keyboard works on the screen before it where i select install, boot first hard disk, or check the cd??? nothing on google about this...

[15:47] UncleG: I've used some of these converters before when I had mgetty-sendfax on a dedicated box as a fax gateway [15:47] awesome [15:48] well, my problem being when I convert to g3 and send the faxes come out 1/3 the normal size [15:48] UncleG: Work needs me. I'll be back in 3-5 minutes [15:49] ty [15:49] ill wait [15:54] UncleG: There aren't many options for sizing in that app, unfortunately. They have a width option -w which you could try [15:54] the only one I can use is 1728 [15:54] UncleG: Setting to 0 will try to use the original page width [15:55] otherwise sendfax will not work [15:55] Ah, sendfax then [15:55] I tried that too [15:55] still no luck [15:55]
