abolethfrom what ive seen it really doesnt00:00
abolethit mostly just adds a background window00:00
cdennyrhythmbox music player gets choppy when doing the 3d cube, but it never gets below 100fps.  sometimes i have to forcequit rhythm box because it froze when doing that as well.  Should I try a different music player?00:00
Anna_111stduseren, no reason to shout. I also want to know how I can install Xchat00:00
abolethit used that window as the only one, instead of using 300:00
fosco__stduseren, switch off caps lock please00:00
abolethbut the new gimp just uses toolbox windows for the other two00:01
fosco__Anna_111, sudo apt-get install xchat00:01

fearfulwhats easier to use on ubuntu iPhone or Black Berry?00:29
cjecrdlb, I am getting some nasty flicker and it is giving me headaches.00:29

crdlbthere may be a way to fix the refresh rate with radeon ... I dunno00:33
cjecrdlb, I would prefer to use the FOSS solution00:33
SpuddlyMcMartinGnea: did you see that error?00:33
crdlbcje: I assume you looked at system > prefs > screen resolution?00:34
Anna_111when I typed gimp on the terminal gimp opened BUt I got this: http://pastebin.com/m1288db0700:34
SpuddlyMcMartinGnea: there was no solution to it00:34
_Linuxx_felixsulla when you restore the data on the "restore/DR/whatever" box, just know that you will need to edit the paths in the xml files00:34
cjecrdlb, yes, and going to system > prefs > screen resolution only gives me one choice00:34
cjecrdlb, I only get to chose from 0 Hza00:34
jribAnna_111: does "/usr/local" mean anything to you?00:34
cje0 Hz00:34
felixsulla_Linuxx_: So if I have snapshots, the .vdi I want is one of the {hexcodehere}.vdi files?00:35
cjecrdlb, I would like to be able to chose 75 hz00:35
_Linuxx_felixsulla i would use the xml file as a guide and recreate the machines in virtualbox, then attach the vdi's00:35
felixsulla_Linuxx_: Would that be the "most recent" version of my vm?00:35
crdlbcje: something's definitely broken then00:35
cjecrdlb, dang00:35
cjeheh00:35
_Linuxx_there should only be 1 vdi, so you have snapshots or something?00:35
crdlbcje: I guess you can use fglrx for now, then you could try radeon again if you upgrade to jaunty in a month or so00:35
felixsulla_Linuxx_: Yes quite a few snapshots, do I have to get rid of them before I can backup?00:36
_Linuxx_felixsulla oops.. forgot your name ... there should only be 1 vdi, so you have snapshots or something?00:36

fearfuldan___, that needs superuser tho :p00:41
LogicFanfearful, what is the reason why ooo3 isn't in the official repos?  is it just timing?  e.g. waiting for jaunty?00:41
_Linuxx_felixsulla i would need to test with snapshots. best is not to have any of course. I would check to see if, when you create a snapshot, is the original vdi still locked, you know what im saying?00:41
dan___oh right...00:41
PVTPETEok i've go another error00:41
cjecrdlb, not sure which driver I was using under Hardy.  It just worked, so I never questioned it.00:41
felixsulla_Linuxx_: well I know you can "merge" your snapshots to get rid of them maybe I should jsut do that00:41
_Linuxx_anna_111 when in doubt, sudo! :-P00:41
fearfulLogicFan, its not in the repos now because it oo3 was in beta test on intrepid launch, but now all you need to do is add the newer repository for Intrepid and voila.00:41

_Linuxx_gnea is gimpshop not something different?!?!00:51

dr_willisbut since i dont use Pshop.. i dont need it. :)00:51

_igel_hi00:53
zaccourthe alt+f2 and update-manager -d didnt work00:53
Gnea_Linuxx_: that's why you need to pay attention to the actual contents of the package - it places it entirely in /usr/local, which means it's installed alongside of 'regular' gimp (for Ubuntu) in /usr - because there's already a gimp on the system, and because it's a third-party .deb package, it's not creating a menu item00:53
zaccouri got an error00:53

binarymutantSlart, what if they don't provide a web interface? any other way?00:53
Gnea_Linuxx_: and, if you saw what I said before........ 19:48 < Gnea> Anna_111: I see, now, the problem: -rwxr-xr-x root/root   3010612 2006-07-16 04:26 ./usr/local/bin/gimp-2.2    <-- you can see that the binary has been found.00:54
_Linuxx_sebsebseb / anna_111  / gnea - i think it would be very helpful to anna to learn how to find things on her machine, therefore some slocate knowledge would be good, dont you think?00:54

zeldayou know what im talking about right? Like music the album art... ?01:09

sebsebsebzelda: that is if your on 8.10.  if your on hardy you get a rubbish version of banshee unless you do the ppa01:10

GneaAnna_111: gimp-2.2 shows the Gimpshop - and what's happened is, is that the new .deb package has taken /usr/bin/gimp symlink away and put it in /usr/local/bin, so now the default gimp is broken01:13

pietrubens@prepelexed: i have done many searches, but the thing is: if i try to read an article about one thing, it uses the others in reference, thus confusing me even more. i am looking for something that will explain me things clearly, without refering to other, unknown things.01:52
Paddy_EIREmelrockz, hmm.. is the window decorator enabled on ccsm?01:52

A-KOSo I'm having a weird issue here..I've switched my lamp server to ubuntu, but when I set my webdir to not have the execute bit, apache will not serve up the webpage (php, Joomla). I found this kind of odd, but didn't think much of it until I realized my ftp config on my previous server turned off execute on uploaded files. Does anyone have any insight to this?01:59

codeuserdoes anyone happen to know if it is possible to make emerald do vista style blurring on an aero glass theme?02:00

Brent2I'm getting a white screen when trying to install ubuntu. Someone here recommended that I try the alternate installation and I tried that. I was able to install ubuntu (without the GUI) but i'm getting the white screen when ubuntu tries to boot up into Gnome. is there a way I can just boot up without entering Gnome? So i can then install my video driver through the console?02:07
Preplexedpietrubeans no prob dude - get to a LUG group friendly people to ask any question to02:07
schnauzercdenny: Do you wawnt it to rotate only when you have the mouse over a blank desktop, or also when you are over a window?02:07

farliglightdragon, i had ubuntu 8.04 installed from windows before, but it crashed and e-v-e-r-y-t-h-i-n-g got deleted from the drive. i really suggest you make a real installation of ubuntu from scratch... for your own safety..02:08
Appoccwhy, when i change /etc/network/interfaces to eth0 or wlan0 to dhcp, my connections are deactivates on network manager???? i neet to turn dhcp active, but when i do it in interfaces file, my network-anager dun let me connect.. could anybod help me???02:08
danbhfiveanyone know of any working alternatives to skype?02:08
Appoccdanbhfive, wich version of linux do u have??02:09
schnauzercdenny: now i'm not sure about that one02:09
danbhfiveAppocc: AFAIK, if you configure the card in interfaces, nm will ignore the card.  You have to leave it unconfigured, and do everything in nm02:09
lightdragonfarlig: thanks for the advice... any suggestions on how to do this? Is it possible to create a partition for a copy of ubuntu and then copy everything back over to the fresh install of ubuntu so I don't lose the settings and packages etc?02:10
danbhfiveAppocc: ubuntu?02:10

mylistohas ANYONE gotten recordmydesktop to work with sound?????02:21
cdennydanbhfive: i am, only one guy is there02:21
_Linuxx_MRBarrett no, just dont use that space. leave it unused. then go back into vista, and claim that unused space02:21
GnimshI installed 9.04 alpha over the weekend, and had the same problem with it as I did with 8.10, that is, my webcam does not work.  I had to reinstall linux-headers-* and then install the driver and it worked after that.02:21
farliganyone using any other browser than firefox in ubuntu? if so, what?02:21
n8tuserffarlig -> w3m02:22
GnimshOn top of that, once I got the driver working it was being used by v4l2, which did not work with skype or cheese, only camorama02:22
GnimshMy question is, who can I talk to to notify them that this is happening so it can be fixed?02:22
_Linuxx_farlig i think opera is a good browser02:22

danbhfiveGnimsh: I can offer some suggestions02:23
farlig_Linuxx_, do you use opera? can you add extensions to it?02:23
_Linuxx_MRBarrett do this.. run the ubuntu install again, but this time, only take up 10g. leave the rest of the drive blank02:23

ubottujunior: 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+)02:25

tonyyarussoCentHOGG: apt-get install gnome-core would do it.  Tasksel will have an "ubuntu desktop" option, but that gets you the equivalent of installing the desktop version with all included apps, which doesn't fulfill your "lightest" requirement.02:42

Until_It_SleepsNdshacker: ♥04:01
WalkTheLineI have an Orinoco Proxim Gold card, can someone tell me how to install the wireless drivers? I heard they are already loaded in ubuntu04:01
musikgoat|mainfearful: .configure && make && sudo make install04:01
Kraft_I see. cool!  what are some of the ...how do you say... terminal commands to use04:01
NdshackerFor what?04:02
Ndshackerthere are lots of terminal commands04:02
fearfulmusikgoat|main, Kraft_ or all in one like above04:02
Flannel!gnome04:02
ubottuGNOME is the default !desktop environment on Ubuntu. To install it from Kubuntu or Xubuntu, type « sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop » in a !terminal.04:02
AgentHeX!cron04:02
ubottucron is a way to schedule execution of software/scripts. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CronHowto  -  There is also a decent Howto at http://www.tech-geeks.org/contrib/mdrone/cron&crontab-howto.htm04:02
musikgoat|mainfearful: your command set was off is what i meant by that04:02
Kraft_im trying to install zsnes, an emulator so i can play super nintendo games04:02
jimisrvroxnaw Nds...when I tried both sets of drivers when doing ndis I get Error something flags No device so yeah..do everything even -a to assign it but when I do ifconfig I get that and then on reboot I get stuck at starting bluetooth04:02
fearfulmusikgoat|main, oh yea I just noticed, I'm sorry Kraft_ sudo make first then sudo make install04:03
musikgoat|mainKraft_: src should be a directory or a compressed file, no?04:03
Flannel!Gnome04:03
ubottuGNOME is the default !desktop environment on Ubuntu. To install it from Kubuntu or Xubuntu, type « sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop » in a !terminal.04:03
horleycan anyone think of a reason why my sound has stopped working on VLC player? it seems to work everywhere else.. (ps.. i had a hell of a time getting my sound to work in the first place)04:04
Kraft_its just zsnes_1_51, (that's a folder.) than i open it up, and theres 2 folders "Docs" and "Src"04:04
Kraft_i ran "configure" in terminal04:04
Kraft_i dont know if that did anything or not04:04
musikgoat|mainKraft_: in the Src directory, is there a configure file?04:04
fearfulKraft_, yea than cd to /zsnes_1_51/Src04:04
musikgoat|mainKraft_: you have to be located in the directory04:04
jimisrvroxhorley..most of the time I get that too sometimes and I just reboot..but other than that I couldnt see why sound would just stop working like that04:04
Kraft_Zsnes04:05
Kraft_whoa this is confusing04:05
jimisrvroxmy guess is could just be driver package..BUT most likely not...seeming that it works with everything else but VLC04:05
kc8pxyNdshacker:  what bothers me, is that it was working fine, then someone killed the power while it was on,  and it's been flaky under ubuntu ever since,  but i CANNOT get teh same flakiness out of the gentoo that's also on the same box.04:05
Kraft_user@user-desktop:-$04:05
fearfulKraft_, you have to locate the folder which contains configure.sh inside zsnes folder.04:05
seginKraft_: Look under zsnes/src04:06
njainhow to install Yahoo Messenger on Ubuntu04:06
horleyjimisrvrox: yeah it's strange..04:06
Kraft_there's install-sh04:06
njainwhere is it04:06
seginKraft_: That's not what you think it is.04:06
Brack101Hey04:06
Kraft_the only config files are   config.guses, config.h.in, config.log config.sub and configure... and configure.in.04:06
Brack101anyone used dimdim conferencing?04:06
musikgoat|mainkraft04:06
musikgoat|mainconfigure04:06
musikgoat|mainthats what we asked about04:06
WalkTheLinei am a new user, should i setup a root user? i have a user account but it asks me for my password when making big changes. is that the preferred method of security?04:07
Kraft_yup04:07
jimisrvroxyeah horley...im not tech enuf to really say for sure..but my guess is driver pkg...me on the other hand ive got this wireless nic that will not work even with ndis04:07
njainYahoo Messenger ?04:07
seginnjain: Yahoo! does not, nor is it likely to ever ship a up-to-date Linux client. Please use Pidgin instead.04:07
fearfulKraft_, once this folder is located you can cd on the terminal04:07
musikgoat|mainKraft_: ok, where is that folder and file located, on your Desktop?04:07
Kraft_yep it's on my desktop.   im not sure how to cd in the terminal04:07
Brack101WalkTheLine: use your unprivlidged account and elevate by typing your password or using the command sudo when necessary04:07
Brack101WalkTheLine: Never login as root, you don't need to04:07
oniltonmacielDoes anybody knows if I install a persistent live cd in a usb sticky, will I  get my customizations of the usb stick when I try to do a new installation with this usb sticky?04:07
musikgoat|mainKraft_: type the following cd ~/Desktop/04:07
jimisrvroxWalkTheLine yes it is..ubuntu on default does not give you root acct..you have to make it..but it is the preferred method..whereas in old versions of windows you would technically have root privilages off the bat04:07
seginKraft_: In all cases, the one named "configure" is the one you want04:07
NdshackerWalktheline: DOnt make a root account04:07
fearfulKraft_, run the terminal and type cd ~/Desktop04:08
seginKraft_: Invoke it as "./configure --help" (without quotes)04:08
WalkTheLineok Brack, thank you. I wasn't sure if I should create a diff password for root or not04:08
=== adieee is now known as fineta
jimisrvroxWalkTheLine you only should need to log into root if you are doing system maintenance or temporary for installing packages.04:08
hunusfolks...I can't use wine04:08
Kraft_that worked but I had to capitalize "Desktop" interesting04:08
FlannelWalkTheLine: sudo is the preferred method, yes.  Ubuntu doesn't use a root account.04:08
Brack101WalkTheLine: yes and it should be VERY secure04:08
musikgoat|mainKraft_: then cd zsnes_1_5_1  or whatever the foldre name was04:08
hunusthere is no fonts showed04:08
seginKraft_: Yes, Linux (and other Unix-like systems) are case-sensitive.04:08
musikgoat|mainKraft_: linux is case sensitive, you'll get used to that04:08
musikgoat|mainheh04:08
WalkTheLineunderstood Brack, thank you04:08
Ndshacker:| I geuss ill have to stick with Zydas, since Samsnung hates Ubuntu ;(04:09
seginKraft_: A file named STARTREK is not named the same as one named startrek, or StarTrek, or even StArTrEk04:09
horleyjimisrvox: yeah im not really techie enough either.. i'm new to ubuntu.. the good thing about your wireless problem is that there is a lot of info on wireless nics but the bad thing is that there is a lot of information on wireless nics..04:09
hunussomebody understand of wine?04:09
Kraft_i completely understand04:09
fearfulhunus, offer a little more detail04:09
Kraft_i typed cd /zsnes_1_5104:09
jimisrvroxwell horley..problem is that theres virtually NO info on this puppy04:09
Kraft_no such file or directory04:09
hunusmy proble is about the fonts04:09
musikgoat|mainKraft_: the forward slash is incorrect04:09
fearfulKraft_, type dir and see the exact name04:09
musikgoat|mainat the beginning04:09
seginKraft_: Because you specified an absolute path04:09
hunusin the config screen I cant see any word04:09
WalkTheLinecan anyone help me find my wireless drivers? I have the Orinoco Gold card and was told they are already part of Ubuntu... not sure where to find them though04:09
Kraft_oh nice04:09

Kraft_no ones mentioned anything about that no04:11
fearfulmusikgoat|main, I don't think we have04:11
musikgoat|mainsudo apt-get install build-essential04:11
seginKraft_: You may want to run "sudo apt-get install build-essential"04:11
DIFH-icerootKraft_: what are you trying? installing zsnes?04:11
Kraft_yes sir04:11
DIFH-icerootKraft_: sudo apt-get install zsnes04:11
jpbaa12My wireless card is no detecting any networks, even after I put in the SSID (not broadcast) and password for my WAN and there are 2 unsecured available on other boxes.  Where do I start?04:11
WalkTheLineshould i be concerned if firestarter shows some serious threats?04:11
musikgoat|mainKraft_: its some basic build tools for linux source programs04:11
seginKraft_: This will install the GNU toolchain (the GNU compiler and binutils), and some basic system libs04:11
Kraft_ok ok to get out of the zsnes folder, what should i type?  so i can get the GNU toolchain04:12
jimisrvroxNdshacker mine I think I told you but when I do ndis I end up with after trying ifconfig wlan0 up I get ERROR interrupt flags: No Device or something to that affect and then on reboot hangs at starting bluetooth04:12

shifty-tlhello, I installed two mbrs on two harddrives when installing linux mint, so nothing boots, except when I have the windows cd in the tray... then everything is fine. I tried loading the windows cd and typing fixmbr, when prompted to log into a windows I noticed that it had D:/windows instead of c so I guess it failed to detect it. Sry I'm noobis in messing with the mbr don't know were to start04:12
jimisrvroxwhere are u stuck?04:12
DIFH-icerootKraft_:i like snes9x more but why are you trying to compile zsnes if it is in the repos?04:13

arogers1sprinkmeier : There are a lot of ICMP "destination unreachable"s coming from my machine and going outbound and a lot of random IPs sending me data inbound. What's odd is that I'm behind a NAT, so I shouldn't be getting any inbound traffic that I didn't initiate05:36

xzirrowsprinkmeier, i'm currently using my laptop with ubuntu in two ways : at work for web development , at home - to see movies & etc, and at home i don't need apache or mysql starting during boot. Is there any way to make smth like 'booting profiles' ?05:40

arogers1sounds like you should switch back to oss when you play the gamee05:40
arogers1or was it having problems in-game with it?05:40

Dolowell in oss i got crackling noises05:40

arogers1*then. that's weird05:41
sprinkmeierxzirrow, runlevels?traditionally 5 = X, 3 = console, but there's no reason (other than sanity :-) why you can't change those. I'd put something in /etc/rc.local that detects you're at the office and then fires off apache etc.05:41

kindofabuzznew webmin is out for those of you that care =)05:47
xzirrowsprinkmeier, and it taking too long to make it. Have any ideas - how can i customize it ? DKMS especcialy ?05:47
Guest59367What is here makes?05:47
KillerOrcasprinkmeier, yeah there is an error message, but it seems unrelated to the packages that won't update, I'll paste it05:48
gRuntOkay one more question. I have this machine on dual boot, while linux is my main OS I keep all my media in a seperate NTFS parition so both my operating systems can read from it. Is there a way I can place a shortcut to a folder in that parition without having to always mount that drive if that makes any sense.05:48
nefrinok, got flood botted for my problem: Ubuntu splash will show on boot up, but then I just get a black screen with a mouse pointer05:48
sprinkmeierxzirrow, sorry, don't even know hwat DKMS is (virtualisation stuff?) I'd be tempted to park the cirtualisation stuff on a desktop PC (better disk bandwidth) and ssh/X into it while at the office.05:48

Newbuntuhaha cheers shadow05:49
nefrinBrack101 - mouse pointer on a black screen05:49
xzirrowsprinkmeier, DKMS - Dynamic Kernel Module blah-blah . But still thanks05:50
Brack101nefrin: sounds like your xorg is borked05:50
nefrinBrack101 - the changes I made prior to this was uninstalling OpenOffice 2.4 to install 3.005:50
Brack101nefrin: right I saw that05:50
gRuntsprinkmeier, is automount an app? Again if so how would I create an icon that links to a folder from that partition. I tried creating a new launcher to the folder in that parition but I must have stuffed up the path it didn't work/05:50
sprinkmeierKillerOrca, "404 Not Found" old repo?05:50
nefrinBrack101: can you help me fix my xorg?05:51
KillerOrcasprinkmeier, yeah, but it looks unrelated to the non-upgrading packages05:51
shadowh511befrin, in the shape of an x?05:51
Brack101nefrin: yeah...when you boot up push control alt f1 to get a command prompt05:51
Brack101then I forget how to reconfigure xorg05:51
nefrinshadow511: no, it's just a standard mouse pointer05:51
sprinkmeiergRunt, automount is a daemon that monitors directories. If the directory is accesses it mounts some resource, then unmounts it when the directory goes idle again. Used to be used to mount CD's etc. before HAL-udev magic came along.05:52
gRuntWould I find that in synaptics or would I need to configure that from a source?05:52
Brack101nefrin: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg05:53
nefrinBrack101: right now while I'm in Live CD?05:53
sprinkmeierKillerOrca, "The following packages have been kept back:" implies you're running options that don't want to update everything to the latest (last time I saw something like that was RHEL, didn't update kernel by default). Sorry, best guess....05:53
Brack101nefrin: no you boot to your HD then do control alt f1, login and then do that05:53
Brack101nefrin, oh but then do /etc/init.d/gdm stop first05:53
Brack101then reboot05:53
chaca_uckece_cari_cinta05:54
nefrinBrack101 - so do the /etc/init.d/gdm stop now in Live CD, then reboot, do the cntl alt f1 and then the sudo command, correct?05:54
sprinkmeiergRunt, looks like it's called "autofs" now, so "sudp apt-get install autofs". I think that's the package I used to use but it's been a few years05:55
tokeefeI think I'm at a loss here05:55
Brack101nefrin, no you do both on the hdd05:55
FlannelKillerOrca: do a dist-upgrade05:55
sprinkmeiergRunt, a better soln for you might be to simply mount the NTFS partition at bootup, mangle /etc/fstab to do this05:55
gRuntThere is also gnome volume manager in synaptics that seems to do a similar thing will try autofs first cheers05:55
gRuntokay05:55
nefrinBrack101: rgr, anything else I should do before I reboot and attempt that? I'm gonna drop out of chat to do it05:55
Brack101nefrin: check PM05:56
tokeefehaving my fglrx driver enabled causes a resume from suspend to hang05:56
gRuntsprinkmeier, could you elaborate a bit on the mangle /etc/fstab for me I've not used terminal a lot.05:56
Flannelsprinkmeier, KillerOrca: kernel metapackages (linux-generic) change their dependencies (linux-image-[new-version]-generic instead of [oldversion]).  upgrade only installs newer versions of pacakges you have installed (ups the versions), dist-upgrade will also bring in new depends if needed.  That's why you need to use dist-upgrade to grab new kernels05:56
tokeefeand not having it enabled will allow the machine to resume, but the touchpad is unresponsive05:56
tokeefeI guess the touchpad issue was addressed in jaunty05:56
crdlbtokeefe: that's hardly unprecedented05:57
crdlbtokeefe: the video driver should have no effect on the touchpad05:57
tokeeferight05:57
KillerOrcaFlannel, that seems to have done it, thanks05:57
tokeefewhen the video driver is enabled, the machine won't come back from suspend _at all_05:57
tokeefejust black screen05:57
tokeefeno Ctrl+Alt+F405:58
sprinkmeiergRunt, /etc/fstab is a list of resources (and mountpoints) that you wnat the kernel to know about and, optionally, to mount on boot. /etc/mtab contains the currently mounted resources in a format that you can just about cut-and-paste into fstab. I sufggest you mount the NTFS partition, then check mtab and copy the appropriate line into fstab (doing backups all the way of couorse :-)05:58
tokeefehave to hard shutdown/reboot05:58
smikecI have managed to lock my default username out of users-admin. I can access it using su root. Any ideas how to allow my default username back into users-admin to allow changes?05:58
gRuntthanks sprinkmeier will give it a look now05:58
tokeefehowever, when the video driver is not enabled, the machine will resume.... but this reveals yet another problem, that is, the touchpad doesn't work05:58
=== bizkit_ is now known as bizkit
tokeefeSo the ATI driver affects the machine from coming back from resume05:59
sprinkmeiersmikec, sounds like the default user has been kicked out of the adm group (membership of this group is used by sudo to allow superuser access).05:59
yoophglupis there anyway to set one workspace different then the other 3 like no icons or menu bars06:00
sprinkmeiersmikec, "sudo usermod -aG adm USERNAME" adds USERNAME back into the adm group. log out of X and log in again for changes to take effect.06:00
crdlbtokeefe: ah, I see; the ATI driver suspend problem is pretty much unfixable since the driver is proprietary06:01
gRuntsprinkmeier, would it be likely to be the last line in my mtab....that being /dev/sda4 /media/disk fuseblk rw,nosuid,nodev,allow_other,blksize=4096 0 006:01
tokeefeyayyyy06:01
sprinkmeiersmikec, (just checked sudoers... the correct group name is "admin", not "adm". not sure what the latter is for)06:01
tokeefeunfixable!!!!06:02
Flannelsprinkmeier, smikec: it's not adm, it's admin.  And a better way to do it is `adduser user admin`06:02
KillerOrcanew question then, anyone currently using ushare and know what the new repos are?06:02
smikecI have rechecked "administer the system" under user privileges and my username is checked under the admin group06:02
L3dPlatedLinuxis there a list of repo's that are not on the sources list  that should be to make ubuntu that much more awesome06:03
sprinkmeiergRunt, yeah... but it's using FUSE rather then NTFS directly. try something like "/dev/sda4 /media/shared_ntfs     ntfs defaults,umask=007,gid=46,ro 0  1"06:03
doleybL3dPlatedLinux: well there's medibuntu..06:03
gRuntthanks sprinkmeier ill try it now and reboot....wish me luck :)06:03
horleycan anyone tell me why i the sound on VLC player and MPlayer stopped working?  the rest of the sounds work.. and so does the default movie player (but that player doesnt work well)06:04
sprinkmeiergRunt, no need to reboot. run "sudo mount -a" to mount all things that are suppsoed to be auto-mounted.06:04
smikecIt is still not working, when I run admin-users in the terminal I get some critical errors "Gtk-WARNING **: GtkSpinButton: setting an adjustment with non-zero page size is deprecated"06:04
gRuntok cool well I cant save the fstab I guess I need to change the permissions first :s06:04
sprinkmeiersmikec, does "id" tell you you're in the group now?06:04
sprinkmeiergRunt, don't change the permissions. use sudo to edit it: "sudo name /etc/fstab"06:05
sprinkmeiergRunt, oops: "sudo nano /etc/fstab"06:05
gRuntyeah as I hit enter i realised i didnt sudo it06:05
nefrinBrack101: reconfigure xserver-xorg did not solve my issue, still get the black screen with mouse pointer06:06
Brack101oh alright06:06

nefrinBrack101: duh, just remebered that I have a backup of my xorg.conf file saved to the hard drive06:07
Brack101well that's probly not gonna help06:08
gRuntsprinkmeier, when I try to unmount the volume to test sudo mount -a it tells me the volume isnt mounted even though it is...06:08
Brack101since reconfig should have fixed your xorg.conf06:08
Brack101but try it06:08
sprinkmeiersmikec, that's a healthy list of groups.... are you running "sudo admin-users"? (note that most gtk warnings are harmless and might be just noise)06:08
nefrinBrack101: ok, guess that idea is borked06:08
Brack101nefrin: no try it out06:08
Brack101nefrin: you're on the live cd, might as well06:09
sprinkmeiergRunt, might be a FUSE artefact.... how are you unmounting? "sudo umount /media/mountpoint" usually works for me06:09
nefrinBrack101: how do I do it from Live CD?06:09
gRuntI was just doing it via the desktop sprinkmeier will try console06:09
sprinkmeiergRunt, if you're using the same directory mountpoint in fstab that you've currently got mounted then unmount is likely to get confused. comment out the new line in fstab, then try unmounting again.06:09
Brack101nefrin: restore your xorg.conf backup06:10
horleyhorley:06:10
gRuntOkies, also when I run that command I get06:10

kohlraksmikec: how the hell did you do that?06:11
sophiaeven minimize,maximize options in a window06:11
KillerOrcasophia, what do you mean by title bar?06:11
sprinkmeiersmikec, "sudo users-admin" shouldn't need to be unlocked, it should already be running with root priv. out of ideas for the moment....06:12
kohlraksophia: Do also mean the applications, places, and systems?06:12
smikeckohlrak: unchecked "Administer the system" under all users except root user06:12
gRuntHow do I create /media/shared_ntfs I mean I know I can make a folder in the media directory but I don't see how that works....06:12

rwwgRunt: sudo mkdir /media/shared_ntfs06:12

smikecthanks for your help sprinkmeier06:13
KillerOrcasophia, so the top panel?06:13
rwwgRunt: it doesn't unless you modify fstab to make it (or use mount to do it)06:13
sophiakiller0rca: ya06:13
sprinkmeiergRunt, /etc/fstab provides the link06:13
smikeckohlrak: I can login to root only via terminal06:13
sophiakiller0rca: how to get it back?06:14
KillerOrcasophia, well what was the last thing you did before it went away?06:14
gRuntYep it just worked I didnt have the partition mounted but already had the fstab uncommented just went back to my desktop and its there thanks! Anyway to hide the drive on the desktop though I'm not interested in the drive itself only in the folders I am linking instead.06:14
sophiakiller0rca: typed compiz in terminal06:14
QPrimesophia: using compiz?06:15
QPrimeyup that will do it.  ;)06:15
kohlraksmikec, so you mean to tell me that when you turn it off you cannot get into root when you turn it back on, that the debug menu or whatever it's called (i foget off hand) does not show up or does not work?06:15
onats1how do i update my apt-sources via comamnd line?06:15
sprinkmeiersmikec, anything in /var/log/messages? (wild thought: something like /etc/sudoers file permissions got whacked and the system is refusing to use it, hence admin group membership isn't working)06:15
gRunt!permissions06:15

kohlraksophia: type: sudo killall compiz06:16
sophiahow to get it back now?06:16
KillerOrcasophia, if your card isn't up to snuff compiz won't function right, so I would try disabling it, call up a terminal with alt-f2, I beleive06:16
kohlraksophia: it might not work entirely, but the appearances manager's last tab could also fix it06:16

smikeckohlrak: Havent tried any debug menu, just the graphical logon doesnt work06:17
sophiakiller0rca: It says no process to kill06:17
crdlbkohlrak: there is _no_ reason to use sudo to kill compiz06:17
kohlraksmikec: ok... So, if you can login with a terminal, have you tried visudo?06:17
crdlbkohlrak: secondly, compiz is a shell script; compiz.real is the real binary06:18
kohlrakcrdlb: really? i never bothered to check what user starts it06:18
onats1my computer at home just restarted.. i can't connect using tightvnc right now.. how do i force login onto the desktop, given i have terminal access only?06:18

gRuntHey sprinkmeier just had to log in and out as I was testing something seems now when I try and access /media/shared_ntfs it says I can't view the contents of the file as I don't have permission, can I simply chmod -r the folder?06:21
KillerOrcasophia, have you also tried clicking on the desktop to add a panel in manually?06:21
onats1kholrak, so that means i cant vnc to home once its restarted?:(06:21
crdlbsophia: do you see System?06:22
kohlraksmikec: basically, visudo (if that's the command, i can't remember) opens the file that has lists the permissions for "sudo access"06:22
SunnyDPScottG489: wforward sound to 2nd PC with cable or software ?06:22
sophiacrdlb: System option is there when i right click on desktop06:22
smikecsprinkmeir: can't seem to find anything that looks fishy in the log06:23
sprinkmeiergRunt, you have to mess with the mount options, they overrise the directory permissions. the "gid=46" was supposed to set the group to something you belong to, check that it does06:23
kohlrakonats1: not really... If you have your computer auto login to a user account you can simply login using a terminal and start the vnc daemon, but i don't think you can force login from terminal06:23
crdlbsophia: are you using gnome?06:23
sophiacrdlb: yes06:23
ScottG489SunnyDP: What do you mean by cable?06:23
crdlbsophia: then there shouldn't be a 'system' in the desktop right click menu06:23
onats1kohlrak, well i can ssh to my PC now..06:23
sprinkmeiersmikec, out of ideas again then....06:24
onats1is that any help?06:24

gRuntsprinkmeier, that works but that folder is empty, before when I was manually mounting it it had all my music in it......I deleted the link to it on my desktop but that is all, does the parition normally get wiped or is that because the link was established after I copied all the files over to it?06:26

KillerOrcaonats, this should allow you to get in via GUI after you follow it, all you have to figure out how to do GUI-less is install x11vnc06:32

chronosHas anyone been having stability issues lately? I updated my Intrepid and when I did, programs have started randomly crashing, disappearing, etc. Sometimes my computer just locks ups for fun. What gives?06:32

nefrinBrack101: dhcdbd message handler not found under/&?06:32
sprinkmeiergRunt, OK... so "sudo umount /dedia/shared_ntfs" verify that it's gone, then "sudo mount -a" and it should be back, but this time without the FUSE stuff (OK, I'm running 8.04 and I don't have the FUSE stuff on my automatically-mounted NTFS partition.

norenchronos: did u updated to jaunty lately06:33
BigMoopiesIs there any real reason for me to keep powernowd , for it's CPU scaling on my desktop?  It slowed me down by tons.06:33
chronosnoren: No, i just updated packages in Intrepid.06:34
doleybBigMoopies: I have also noticed a counterproductive result from powernowd (and also guidance-power-manager)06:34
chronosLike right then, my audio player just died. No error message or anything. Just dropped away06:34
norenchronos: did u had the prerealease option checked06:34
sprinkmeiersmikec, you can run "sudo env EDITOR=nano visudo" to use nano instead of vi when editing sudoers. friendlier...06:34
BigMoopiesdoleyb, A counter who ?06:34
horleysorry irc keeps resetting me.. does anyone know how to get the wireless card to start up on boot?  i would also need to keep the same ip address somehow (from my router)06:35
doleybBigMoopies: counter-productive.  Meaning that using it was worse than not using it.06:35
chronosSure didn't noren I know better than alphas and betas06:35
BigMoopiesdoleyb, That's what I thought myself.  I wish I had known what was causing my system to run like WindowsXP after 5 months of it being installed before I looked up "powernowd"06:36
gRuntsprinkmeier, that is what I did last time, just to make sure I unmounted then ran a mount and df command I think it looks ok did you just want to verify line 16 still mentions fuse thats all.06:36
gRunthttp://pastebin.com/d5afd6c9806:36
sprinkmeierhorley, the second is easy... assign a static IP address, or tell your router to assign a static DHCP lease. the first part probably requires mangling /etc/network/interfaces06:36
BigMoopiesdoleyb, But besides that, There is no real reason for me to keep it?  No over heating? blah blah ?06:36
doleybBigMoopies: well I'm on a laptop so its kinda different.  And the only time it makes problem is flash movies on web.06:36
doleybBigMoopies: you can run lmsensors and check if heating seems to be a problem, but probably it won't be06:37
smikeckohlraek: ran vim, typed i for insert, entered line stated, esc, !wq, enter, output=shell returned 12706:37
kohlraksmikec: any accompanying text or just 127?06:37
sprinkmeiergRunt, NTFS seems to be gone. try the "sudo mount -a" now to see it it comes back (and what it looks like)06:37
BigMoopiesdoleyb, I installed lm-sensor and all, however is there anything for a graphic to use it?  Maybe gkrealm ?06:38
gRuntsprinkmeier,  yeah just tried it comes back BUT i still don't have permission to view it, which is stupid group 100 is users and I ticked both my account and root to be members just to be safe...06:38
chronosIs there a log file I can check to see why programs just die?06:38
horleysprinkmeier: for some reason my /etc/network/interfaces is pretty small compared to examples ive seen on the web, but i think you are right..  i will have to look into the static DHCP lease but it makes sense..06:38
BigMoopiesgraphic = GUI06:38
doleybBigMoopies: yes there are many graphical things to display it, including kgrellem06:38
Ndshackeris 70 Gb sufficient for the root of Ubuntu06:38

BigMoopiesdoleyb, OK.  This would be as good as using "SpeedFan" in Windows ?06:39

sprinkmeierhorley, ....interfaces is usually tiny, basically "do everything automagically (via DHCP), get passwords from the keyring if/when needed". Automatically starting wireless usually requires a WEP/WPA key, assigning static IP addresses means more lines....06:40

sLaeYahi I have just installed a fresh copy of ubuntu 8.10 - which worked seemlessly and then ISPconfig - I am now having a problem with bind9 failing on boot and am unsure how to fix this problem, here is a snippet of my syslog http://paste.ubuntu.com/132863/06:41
smikeckohlrak: that line %admin ALL=(ALL) ALL06:41
smikec is in visudo06:41
nefrinhalpmai: I had that error awhile ago, meant that my grub files had be reconfigured and moved too far down the HDD to be read by the bios and I needed to reinstall and setup proper partitions. Beyond doing that, I'm at a loss06:42
kohlraksmikec: is that line saved though? so that you see it again if you exited and reentered visudo?06:42
gRuntThat said sprinkmeier sudo mount -a worked and permissions are fine, it just didn't auto mount for some reason, or will it only mount after a reboot and not a login/out06:42
smikeckohlrak: it has always been in visudo06:42
sprinkmeiergRunt, correct. bootup runs "mount -a" which examines fstab. reboot to confirm, but it should work now.06:43
kohlraksmikec: then just exit visudo and try to do your thing and tell me if you sitll have problems06:43
gRuntThanks, lastly how do I then make a link (or yes being the windows newb I still am) a shortcut to a folder in that file, is it as simple as making a launcher that points to /media/shared_ntfs/foldername?06:44

nefrinfool_ - drop to single user?06:47
gRuntBah still seems I dont have write permissions to the folder....06:47
kohlraksmikec: you just may be able to run the same manager that you messed with all the permissions after su root, since a GUI program run after that should have the same permissions as root06:47
fool_nefrin: right after reboot , when it says press escape to get to grub menu, press escape, choose recovery option06:48

gRuntCan anyone help me with making a mounted ntfs folder have write access please?07:11
kohlrakfool_ well does the program work without the creepy daemon lib?07:11
fool_kohlrak: i went ahead and try insatll libfam0, and guess what, there was a conflict with gamin07:12
fool_ Gamin has been designed as a drop-in replacement for FAM with security and07:12
fool_ maintainability in mind and can use Linux's advanced inotify service when available.07:12

kohlrakfool_ then i suggest gamin instead if it is more secure and maintainable and the program works XD07:13
kohlrakfool_ i would also suggest switching the other computer to use gamin as well if it works XD07:13
smikeckohlrak: I su into users-admin started adding my username under anything "admin" looking and vice versa with my personal group, rebooted07:14
fool_kohlrak: shoot but the required package is libfam0 in the description07:14
kohlraksmikec: improvement?07:14
smikec kohlrak: improvement = yes07:14
smikecnow my username can change root permissions once I unlock07:14
smikecso its just tinkering from here on out07:15
kohlrakfool_ well, if gamin's a dropin that works then it shouldn't matter. What matters is that it works. If both work, worry about security... if this thing makes a daemon, it's not number1 on my list of secure programs.07:15
fool_kohlrak: i'm gonna file a bug report07:15
kohlraksmikec: awesome... not sure what worked, but the "unlock" button is a requirement for all as far as i know =p07:15
smikecthanks for everyones help, goodnight07:15
kohlraksmikec: night07:15
smikecat least everyting in the gui works now07:16
kohlrakfool_ good idea...07:16
sprinkmeiergRunt, mount options ro, read-only. I usually do that 'cos it's safer that way07:16
fool_kohlrak: haha well it works as far as i can see, but that's still unsure, but they should have drop the requirement for libfam07:16
dsdeizhi, inorder to get the text based ubuntu do i download the alternate cd?07:16
dsdeizthe one with no gui07:17
kohlrakfool_ well, they have to use either libfam or the more secure one, and if they don't get rid of libfam, they really can't make the dropin the primary requirement..07:17
kohlrakfool_ some kind of weird programmer ethics thing or something. The least they could do, though, is mention the dropin replacement07:18
vcvgjoin #irssi07:18
fool_kohlrak: no kidding, or do libfam | gamin  in the requirements spec07:18
gRuntsprinkmeier, occassionaly im on linux though and have dled a file that I want to be able to open in my windows machine and its easier to just copy it there than stuff around with an external, thats all07:18
kohlrakfool_ you can do that? Though, they probably did, otherwise purging libfam for gamin would have thrown an error. Naturally the one will install before the other on most machines07:19
crdlbfool_: what package is this?07:19
kohlrakfool_ that means there's likely another program that uses libfam that doesn't have the option set right forthe dropin replacement...07:19
fool_kohlrak: yes you can do that, and no they didn't07:20
fool_crdlb: cone07:20
fool_kohlrak: yes i tried to purge gamin and lighttpd cry out in horror07:20
kohlrakfool_ well, if gamin is the more secure package then you don't want to purge that one XD07:21
kohlrakfool_: i gotta get going. Chances are some one will answer that bug report before i have a viable solution other than already suggested.07:22
fool_kohlrak: the lighttpd does show a gamin | libfam dependencies07:22
fool_kohlrak: problem is, i will use it and it might crash one day07:22
fool_or it might live one happily ever after07:22
fool_lol07:22
fool_kohlrak: yes, thanks, have fun getting back to work07:22
kohlrakfool_ well, if it's "more maintainable" then it'll probably end up becomming the primary requirement as libfam becomes outdated and not maintained07:22

Boohbahdixon2081: i am failing to see the point of two separate partitions for ubuntu desktop and ubuntu server. why not install server applications on the desktop or vice versa?08:32
tc111dixon2081: it is possible... you need to create 2 /boot partitions (100-200MB) and 2 / partitions (20-40GB), you can share both the swap (RAM * 1.5) and /home partitions08:33
ActionParsnip1Segaja: edit your menu to see what command it runs08:33
SegajaActionParsnip1: i don't have gnome running, but it is installed. i just want the command :)08:34
s7itch3shi everyone. i'm having an issue with my cd rom. this is a laptop and i use the Gunjin boot loader to get the disk to boot. i can begin the install, ie: select language. it loads the kernel and starts the process but gets hung up on detection the cdrom??? it asks for drivers... (even tho it just loaded it)    any ideas?08:34

Segajacouldn't they use a better name for that...08:35
funkyHattc111: in manual it will do just what you tell it to, but my point is you don't need to have a /boot partition at all08:35

tc111ActionParsnip1: its a headless machine. i ssh and tunnel X so that i can run some gui apps, but i wouldn't do it again as i love the cli.08:40
Puppet_MasterActionParsnip1, ok I try08:40
Boohbahs7itch3s: forgive my ignorance, what is a gunjin bootloader and does grub not work for you?08:40
cTnActionParsnip1: hi, so my laptop has 4gb of ram so i wanted to install x64 version of ubuntu, but when i insert latest live cd (8.10 x64) and select for example 1st option, to try ubuntu without any changes, notebook reboots08:40
funkyHattc111: fair enough :) there are some advantages to having a separate /boot, I just think it's not necessary for most people's needs :)08:40
ActionParsnip1tc111: cli is sweet08:40
proi'll that that as a no....08:41
cTnActionParsnip1: same thing happens when i press the install option08:42
Boohbahtc111: FreeNX is also sweet, instead of X over ssh08:42
Puppet_MasterActionParsnip1, no new line on dmesg08:42
s7itch3sBoohbah: sorry, "http://gujin.sourceforge.net/" gujin. i've had grub on this machine work before(installed with debian) but not from floppy. is it just like a floppy that looks at available drives?08:42
tc111funkyHat: i have some fairly complex drive setups, so i use a separate /boot partition formatted ext3. most all of my machine, >12, use LVM or RAID and LVM, so need a separate /boot, but you're right, the standard basic user doesn't need that feature.08:43
ActionParsnip1Puppet_Master: you wont see a 'new line' you will see the kernels reaction to the cd being inserted08:43
gldtnheelo guys.. where can I find bcm43xx-fwcutter or b43-legacy for download? I needed for my other laptop that can't connect to the net.. so Iḿ trying to download it and put it on there08:43

raevol1guys i've got a really unique situation: i need to install from the alternate cd for ubuntu (to get a full CLI system), but from a usb drive (eeepc), but with an image that will fit on a 512 meg usb drive, is this possible? is there a custom image out there that's just a bit smaller?08:49

ActionParsnip1Puppet_Master: you do realised you have just damaged your security quite heavily?08:49
JuzProdtionzim going to reburn it what do speed do you recommend08:49
Slart!minimal | raevol108:49
ubotturaevol1: The Minimal CD image is very small in size, and it downloads most packages from the Internet during installation, allowing you to select only those you want (the installer is like the one on the !Alternate CD). See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD08:49

ActionParsnip1Puppet_Master: sudo mount /dev/scd0 /media/cdrom008:52
Boohbahs7itch3s: hmm, i guess if you can't boot some linux and run lspci then you will have to google for your cd-rom model and figure out what driver it uses. have you tried knoppix?08:52
Slartraevol: oh.. hmm.. then I don't really know.. If I were in your position I would look into some tools to edit disk images and try removing some packages you don't want to use.. something big.. openoffice perhaps08:52
JuzProdtionzwhat speed should i run it at now08:52
ActionParsnip1Puppet_Master: as long as you havent enabled the root account08:52

VonorI just tried creating a custom ubuntu cd with a custom branding and custom desktop meta package. created the iso image and tried installing it in a vbox, the result was 1) it tried to setup a pppoe connection at network conf 2) couldn't find a kernel image suitable for installing 3) some message about glibc08:55

xavierg2003Indeed. you have windows on there first right? because if you load kubuntu after windows it breaks the booter09:01
xxx_tomb rider09:02
ActionParsnip1xavierg2003: quite the opposite, if you have windows first the install ubuntu the dual boot will be handled for you09:02

Corey-BearI'm sorry Iko its a ATI09:26
soreauCorey-Bear: If you know how to use a terminal, the output of 'lspci|grep VGA' will tell you exactly which graphics card you have09:26
BlackAeronautHowdy all.  Need a bit of assistance getting some video drivers installed - can even get X running properly until I do this so Iḿ stuck in terminal.09:26
soreauBlackAeronaut: Which graphics card?09:26
SupavisahHey people, you know Wubi.. how come I can't select an ISO anymore?09:26
ikoniaGhoster ubuntu has had dual monitor support from about 5.04 onwards09:26

Ghostercrdlb, ATI Xpress 115009:28
soreauBlackAeronaut: So you'll need to use the proprietary fglrx drivers. First to get into X, open xorg.conf and change the Driver line in the Device section from whatever it is now to "vesa" (sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf)09:28

marcusdavidusaction yes is why i choose ubuntu fore her . if i sintall her an gentoo she kick my ass to moon if she wanna instal something and need to wait 30 inutes10:38
synistheticI get a 404 not found error when I do sudo apt-get update10:39
marcusdavidussrry for typos10:39
funkyHat_Ester_: if you don't have any bookmarks or other settings you want to save you could delete the .mozilla directory in your home folder10:39
sky__Ester_: on linux we dont fix problems as in Windows (removin, installing it again or something like that)10:39
Slartsynisthetic: what version of ubuntu are you running? have you tried using another mirror?10:39
_Ester_yes, i will install an older version10:39
ActionParsnip1marcusdavidus: then any package based system willroll10:39
synistheticSlart, intrepid, but there are only packages for hardy that I can find. I did look for anotehr mirror, but i can't find any. The confusing this is if i browse to that repo in firefox it seems fine10:39
sky__Ester_: try to download adobe-flashplugin ?10:39
Slartsynisthetic: hmm.. and regular web browsing works ok?10:40
rtew442synisthetic: you can't mix packages from hardy and intrepid10:40
sky__Ester_: sudo apt-get install adobe-flashplugin10:40
synistheticyeah you can even try for yourself, it SEEMS like the files are there but i dont know the subtle points of how a repo is supposed to be organized10:40
synistheticoh10:40
synisthetic:(10:40
marcusdavidusok never mind i found why this  instalator dont works10:40
Slartsynisthetic: check in system, administration, software sources.. there should be a drop down selector with some mirrors.10:40
marcusdavidus becouse ubuntu mount hdd as cdrom OMFG10:40
synistheticI'm trying to install easycam and I did it from the .deb but the result was not usable10:41

marcusdavidus i just force umount everything and instalator see hdd now thanx anyway10:41
sky__Ester_: if nothing happend you dont have enabled restricted repositories10:41
synistheticI see mirrors for the main ubuntu repos but not this one10:41
synistheticwhich I added myself10:41
ActionParsnip1marcusdavidus: it mounts them like all other linuxes10:41
_Ester_sky_: it gives me error, ahhhhh I am going to throw the computer for the window!!!10:42
Slartmarcusdavidus: odd.. wonder if it's some kind of feature of unetbootin..10:42
Slartsynisthetic: ah.. you're using a 3rd party repository10:42
synistheticyeah because I tried installing the .deb and the result was not usable. it was missing something10:42
synistheticI was hopign this repo had a more up to date version10:42
synistheticthe website for this tool is in french, I can't read it10:42
synistheticbabelfish makes no sense10:42
marcusdavidusActionParsnip1:   not rly debian by unetbootin dont mount all partitions on boot under cdrom when i boot him from hdd . anyway like i say nvm10:43
ActionParsnip1marcusdavidus: how do you mean under cdrom?10:43

synistheticok thanks10:44
synistheticdo you happen to know how to get the integrated webcam working on an inspiron 1420?10:44
ActionParsnip1goblin: did you md5 chek the iso as well as verify the burned cd was consistant?10:44

marcusdavidusActionParsnip1:  he m,ount hdd partitoons as removable media not as hdd10:44
synistheticmencoder just segfaults.10:44
marcusdavidus is why gpared see disk and instalator dont10:45

BlackAeronaut1Question: How do you manually add linux-restricted-modules-common to your repositories so you can apt-get it?10:45
marcusdavidus i just force unmount every partitions and  run instalator10:45
synistheticSeedso, I've followed that but encountered the aforementioned problems10:45
marcusdavidusActionParsnip1:  like i say i boot it from HDD not from cdrom10:45
SlartBlackAeronaut1: isn't that in the main repos?10:46
goblinActionParsnip1 didn't check but that's never been a problem10:46
Slart!info linux-restricted-modules-common10:46
ubottulinux-restricted-modules-common (source: linux-restricted-modules): Non-free Linux 2.6.27 modules helper script. In component restricted, is optional. Version 2.6.27-11.16 (intrepid), package size 10 kB, installed size 92 kB10:46
ActionParsnip1goblin: your cd may be bad, go check it out10:46
ActionParsnip1goblin: there is a good reason md5 exists10:46
goblinI never had to check md5 when downloading from official sites10:46
BlackAeronaut1Slart: I seem to be having all kinds of problems with drivers right now.10:47
SlartBlackAeronaut1: ah.. try system, administration, software sources.. check the checkbox next to "Proprietary drivers for devices (restricted)"10:47
goblinAnyways thanks...I guess Ubuntu is not meant to be for me10:47
ActionParsnip1goblin: its for a lot of people10:47
BlackAeronaut1Slart: issue is video drivers.  I can even get X to start at this time - Iḿ stuck in terminal so anything I do must be done manually.10:47
ActionParsnip1goblin: all you have to do is calculate the ISOs md5 and compare it to the one on the servers, if it matches you know that its good10:48
ActionParsnip1goblin: its not hard10:48
abe3kHello, guys I'm using opera browser in ubuntu and I can't seem to find how to turn on the autoscroll for the middle mouse button, please help10:48
ActionParsnip1goblin: then you got lucky10:48
SlartBlackAeronaut1: ahh.. it doesn't even start in the failsafe mode?10:48
ActionParsnip1goblin: there is no 100% garuntee that ANY file you download is correct due to transmission errors, bad interfaces and noise10:48
BlackAeronaut1Slart: it just starts me in Terminal with no other ammenities.10:48
ActionParsnip1goblin: i get a lot of folks in here who realise their image is bad when the install fails and then they check the file they downloaded and its WRONG10:49
SlartBlackAeronaut1: what videocard are you using?10:49
crdlbgoblin: since the cd is already burned, you can probably just run the the verifier on the cd's menu10:50
BlackAeronaut1Slart: ATI Mobility Radeon HD 3470 X2 on a Toshiba Satellite A355D series (AMD Turion X2 Ultra 64).10:50
ActionParsnip1goblin: the burning process can also go awry, thats why the cd has a self test on the first screen, so you can double check that, if both pass, you can be 100% sure that any issues are not accreditted to the cd being bad10:50
SlartBlackAeronaut1: hmm.. ati can be tricky..even more so on a laptop... does a live cd boot alright?10:51
marcusdavidushmm i got question . new one . anyone know is hybrid sli will be avalible on linux ?10:51

TgWaKuwhen i select ubuntu12:03
TgWaKuit says that12:03
ActionParsnip1TgWaKu: thats because there is no grub to boot as you removed it12:04
ActionParsnip1TgWaKu: did you install ubuntu with wubi?12:04
TgWaKui used a live cd12:04
scuniziraven: what program are you trying to use it with?12:04
TgWaKuthe hdd i installed ubuntu to crashed12:04
TgWaKuso i took it out12:04
marcusdavidusdamn much to much ppl write aboute 10 diferent topics and im lost12:05
ActionParsnip1TgWaKu: then you should have grub installed and the config will be reading from someplace else12:05
scunizi!who | marcusdavidus12:05
ubottumarcusdavidus: 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 :)12:05
marcusdavidusscunizi:  ya rly ?12:05
itai_michaelsonanyone has any experience with Thinkpads? can i install Ubuntu and then set the rescue & recovery to restore an ubuntu system rather than XP?12:05
ActionParsnip1TgWaKu: you need to fix the mbr of windows so it boots cleanly, then you can wipe the ubuntu drive and reinstall12:05
scunizimarcusdavidus: yea really..:?12:05
marcusdavidusscunizi: ^^12:06
TgWaKui've use fixboot and fixmbr commands12:06
TgWaKuand it still shows ubuntu in the os choices12:06
limbotomarcusdavidus: i finded  the flashplayer.so to in ~.mozilla/plugins12:06
marcusdavidusTgWaKu:  imho this is windows irc problem  becosue this is not linux software12:06
ravenscunizi i try to use it in general... the pen works a bit but e.g. when i tap on it the cursos stands stil until i shortly lift it up a few centimeters....12:06
marcusdaviduslimboto:  copy or link it to mozilla firefox yorprofile pliguins12:07
TgWaKui tryed doing the ubuntu install while in windows and it still has ubuntu in my add/remove programs list. but cannot remove it as it cant find the location12:07
marcusdaviduslimboto:  or uninstall flashplayer-nonfree and install adobe-flashplayer from repo12:08
itai_michaelsonTgWaKu, using wubi?12:08
TgWaKui dont know what wubi is12:08
limbotook, i will try one-by-one :)12:09
marcusdavidusjust edit c:/boot.ini and remove what u dont want there12:09
scuniziraven: if you read the wacom threads on ubuntuforums.org you'll see that sometimes the pen is in "mouse" mode and not "pen" mode.  Most remedy's for pads come with some type of change in the /etc/X11/xorg.conf file.  Most programs (ie Inkscape, Gimp etc) also have their own internal setup for the tablet.12:09
marcusdaviduslimboto:12:09
itai_michaelsonTgWaKu, you installed ubuntu using a CD?12:09
limbotomarcusdavidus: yes sir12:09
TgWaKuyes12:10
marcusdaviduslimboto:  no i mean TgWaKu srry12:10
remoteCTRL2if i open the network connection editor i have a tab for vpn but i cannot add/edit/anything there, why is that?12:10
marcusdavidus im damned confused12:10
limbotonp, u wc12:10
ravenscunizi ok thanks for the hint - i'll try some changes12:10
TgWaKulimboto: there is no boot.ini in on my E drive12:10
=== arvind_k is now known as arvind_khadri
marcusdavidusis hiden file12:11
marcusdavidus just  make in explorer show hidden files12:11
scuniziraven: good luck.. you might also look at www.google.com/linux and search for your tablet name/model + ubuntu and you might come up with some references.12:11
itai_michaelsonTgWaKu, all windows have boot.ini its a hidden file in the root of the drive12:11
TgWaKuhidden files and folders is set to show hidden files and folders12:11
FizixDarn, it looks like I just missed some information about Tablet PCs, no? That's exactly why I came on here, haha.12:11
itai_michaelsonTgWaKu, show sytem files or something12:12
* scunizi wonders why we're talking windows tech12:12
Huufartedscunizi, probably getting information to push to Linux's fstab or something.12:13
scuniziFizix: naw.. just talking graphics tablets.12:13
TgWaKuok got it12:13
TgWaKuthanks itai12:13
azlonis there a way to edit my Google Calendar from Evolution? I am able to view it, but not modify it.12:13
TgWaKugot boot.ini12:13
TgWaKuhas the line12:13
TgWaKuc:\wubildr.mbr="Ubuntu"12:13
scuniziHuufarted: hard to imaging why looking at boot.ini would help fstab12:13
marcusdavidusTgWaKu:  so delete it12:13
TgWaKukk12:13
Huufartedscunizi, I'd imagine it's up to them to determine if it's important in the scheme of things.12:14
scuniziazlon: no.. it will work with sunbird however.12:14
FizixYea Vista gave me a System Event Notification Service error and after fruitless attempts to remedy the situation (killing other services related to it, restore points..) and caroozing forums, the apparent fix is nothing less than a format...12:14
azlonscunizi: thanks12:14
Fizix...after that, I decided to search for some Tablet support for Linux but so far haven't came up with anything yet.12:14
HuufartedFizix, so you're just trying to find help with Windows?12:14
Huufartedah, nvm12:14
scuniziHuufarted: ahh.. looks like there talking wubi installs..12:14
FizixNo no, it was just a prelude to... yea you got it12:14
HuufartedFizix, what do you have?12:14
TgWaKuok i think this is gonna work, im going to reboot and try install ubuntu again12:15
Huufartedscunizi, that makes sense.12:15
zirodayFizix: is it a tablet laptop or a graphics tablet?12:15
* marcusdavidus MPD Elvenpath By Nightwish12:15
TgWaKuthanks for all your help guys (and girls?)12:15
FizixTablet Laptop, a Gateway12:15
HuufartedFizix, model?12:15
itai_michaelsonTgWaKu, how are you installing ubuntu?12:15
zirodayFizix: hmm not so sure about those sorry12:15
marcusdavidusTgWaKu:  why u dont use cd ?12:15
TgWaKui am12:15
azlonscunizi: any way to merge Thunderbird and Sun Bird?12:15
TgWaKuim installing off the live cd12:15
marcusdavidusif u need install from windows ( no cdrom drive) use unebtooin imho12:15
Huufartedazlon, 2 different products.12:15
itai_michaelsonTgWaKu, according to the boot.ini you used wubi12:15
zirodayazlon: there is the lightning extension for thunderbird which is sunbird inside thunderbird12:16
FizixThat's the ONLY reason why I have this set to dual-boot w/ Vista is because I use it for school as a REAL notepad, haha. It's a C-140X12:16
rtew442TgWaKu: why don't you *boot* from the cd and use the real installer instead of wubi?12:16
scuniziazlon: yep.. it's called lightening.. and I think there's a add in for thunderbird to give you the "lightening"12:16
TgWaKubecause the cd was freezing12:16
TgWaKuso i tryed the wubi12:16
HuufartedFizix, have you tried running a Live CD on it?12:16
TgWaKuit would get to six bars from the end and just freeze12:16
itai_michaelsonTgWaKu, what are your specs?12:16
rtew442TgWaKu: but wubi won't get you a real install12:17
rtew442TgWaKu: it juse uses a file on the ntfs partition, which is slow12:17
TgWaKuamd 4000+, 7800gt, 1gb ram12:17
zirodayFizix: if I were you I would try run a jaunty livecd on the laptop and see if that lets you use the tablet12:17
TgWaKuyeah i told me that on the wubi12:17
Akkernightwhy do I get "Unable to create new X file" error message, when I try to save my x configuration ?12:17
TgWaKubut i couldnt get the cd to work so...12:17
zirodayAkkernight: using?12:17
remoteCTRL2can anyone add a vpn in  network connection editor? everything is greyed out here!12:17
scuniziAkkernight: are you in Nvidia Settings?12:17
arvind_khadriAkkernight, use sudo before it12:17
itai_michaelsonTgWaKu, ok, so probably the disc image was corrupted or a bad burn, either download a new CD or use unetbooting (similar to wubi but gives you a real install)12:18
FizixHuufarted & ziroday: I have not tried it. I have Ubuntu installed and it's working just peachy, I'm just looking for the "drivers" (if there is another Linux term for it, I apologize as I do not know it) for my tablet interface. It works just fine as a regular laptop now.12:18
AkkernightYes I'm in Nvidia settings, how do I start it using sudo?12:18
marcusdavidusTgWaKu:  use UNETBOOTIN12:18
HuufartedFizix, drivers is still the appropriate term.12:18
scuniziAkkernight: open terminal and type sudo nvidia-settings12:18
HuufartedFizix, stand by.12:18
TgWaKuunetbooting? brb google12:18
itai_michaelsonTgWaKu, make sure you back up all important files on your windows partition before you do anything!12:18
marcusdavidusTgWaKu: http://unetbootin.sourceforge.net/12:18
TgWaKuah cool live usb ubuntu12:19
marcusdavidusTgWaKu:  it alow u to make bootable cdimage on hdd so u cann boot to live cd and normall install ubuntu12:19
scuniziFizix: most tablets use a wacom setup.. have you tried to google your model number and "ubuntu" at the end of the search string?  you can't be the only one that's tried this.12:19
marcusdavidusTgWaKu:  or intall live cd on usb if u want12:19
TgWaKucool12:19
TgWaKuok i'll try that12:20
TgWaKuthanks12:20
marcusdavidusTgWaKu:  but this only make u able to boot LIVE CD it do not install it12:20
HuufartedFizix, confirmed.  Yours does use a Wacom12:20
TgWaKuoh, so i can't do a "real install" from it?12:20
FizixScunizi: I've just been going through the Add/Remove list on Ubuntu as I'm not to savvy with the installs that normally require command-line stuff "sudo -apt get..." as I learned trying to install IBM's Linux C++ Compiler.12:20
marcusdavidusTgWaKu:  and remmebr  if u boot from hdd after u boot in to x  unmount everything and then run install becosue instalator will dont see hdd12:20
zirodayFizix: the thing is tablet support in intrepid is somewhat broken. Trying a jaunty livecd to see if it fixes it might be helpful12:20
FizixHuufarted: Oh okay, thanks for the info.12:20
marcusdavidusTgWaKu:  yes is how i install ubuntu today12:21
HuufartedFizix, trying to find additional info for you.  Hang on.12:21
BuGo_laptopwhat is wrong with kwallet server?12:21
marcusdavidusTgWaKu:  u can do REAL INSTALL from live cd ^^ unetbootint boot live cd form hdd so u need boot cd form hdd/usb by unetboooin then install like form cdrom12:21
BuGo_laptopi have removed it a12:21
HuufartedFizix:  http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2515112:21
itai_michaelsonTgWaKu, unetbootin is similar to wubi except it also allows you to partition the disc12:21
TgWaKuok12:22
BuGo_laptopand i still am getting crapload of "starting kwallet server"12:22
marcusdavidusitai_michaelson:  not rly12:22
dr_willisHmm.. cant recall ever using unetbootin to install to a hard drive.. just to my usb-thumbdrive12:22
scuniziFizix: yea.. add/remove won't do it here.. you have to get your hands dirtly a little bit.. nice thing is editing a configuration file is easy IF you have the right info to put in it.  Just make a backup of xorg before hand with (sudo cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.backup)12:22
BuGo_laptopremoving kwalletserver12:22
marcusdavidusitai_michaelson:  unetbootin alow u to make bootablle most of linux distro live cds :p12:22
itai_michaelsonmarcusdavidus, how not?12:22
marcusdavidus so u can install like from cdrom12:22
BuGo_laptopbut it still makes my system cry12:22
HuufartedFizix, follow that link please.  I think it's got the info you are looking for.12:23
scuniziBuGo_laptop: are you running gnome and have kde libs loading that you don't want?12:23
BuGo_laptophow can i stop something from starting this kwallet server?12:23
BuGo_laptopscunizi, indeed12:23
FizixBRB, Google'ing as per Scunizi's suggestion, looking up "jaunty" as per ziroday, and checking the forum link from Huufarted.... thank you very, VERY much everyone. Again, BRB.12:23
HuufartedBuGo_laptop, sudo apt-get remove kwallet-server (if that's the name)12:23
scuniziBuGo_laptop: do you want to get rid of all the kde stuff?12:23
BuGo_laptopHuufarted, it is not helping12:23
marcusdavidusitai_michaelson: its simply move files from iso to hdd/usb then make grub or boot.ini  entrys to boot in to it anf then uc an install like from real cdrom12:23
HuufartedBuGo_laptop, did it remove the application?12:23
=== Fizix is now known as Fizix-BRB
itai_michaelsonmarcusdavidus, ok, but i think that as far as TgWaKu is concerened the functions are similar...12:23
BuGo_laptopscunizi, i dont want to get rid of all.12:24
marcusdavidusitai_michaelson:  wubi install ubuntu on windows parition12:24
BuGo_laptopHuufarted, yes i had ant it still shows "launching kwallet server"12:24
marcusdavidusitai_michaelson:  is huge diferenc12:24
marcusdavidusdiference12:24
marcusdavidus*12:24
itai_michaelsonmarcusdavidus i know,,,,the huge diffewrence is that it allows you to intstall ubuntu to the disc rather than to windows,,,12:25
marcusdavidusitai_michaelson: yes , and is  works under linux too12:25
scuniziBuGo_laptop: if you wanted a totally clean gnome system you could google "pure gnome" and you'd get a list of commands to "rid" yourself of kde stuff.. However, since you (like me) prefer some kde apps over gnome apps you just might be stuck with what you have.. Some of your programs might be dependant on kdewallet or other things12:26
sLaeYaI'm currently having issues with authing on my mailserver - via webmail and also external mail clients ie. outlook, here is a snippet from the log file http://paste.ubuntu.com/133003/12:26

BuGo_laptopand konqueror asks for wallet all the time12:26
itai_michaelsonmarcusdavidus, i actually dont understand why would anyone use wubi if unetbooting exist ...12:27
Ronald_Does anybody know of any free programs for designing/drawing hardware infrastructure?12:27
scuniziBuGo_laptop: yes konqueror is one of the offenders for wallet.12:27
scuniziRonald_: like a cad program?12:27
BuGo_laptopscunizi, and right now i have like 8 icons showing "Launching kwallet server"12:27
yanghonghaha12:27
marcusdavidusitai_michaelson:  but u know u can do the same without using unetbooin ^^ is quitte easy to boot linux  cds from boot.ini12:28
zirodayRonald_: blender?12:28
marcusdavidus itai_michaelson is much harder to boot windows cd from grub12:28

Ronald_ziroday, okay I'll take a look.  Thanks!12:30
rossMoHaXhow to add CA cert to gnutls trusted certs?12:30
scuniziRonald_: there is a cross platform "Mind Mapping" software that does stuff like this.. Dia may fit your need and there's others.  the one I"m thinking of is on my other machine that I can't get to right now.. name starts with an x though.12:31

bayerhi, i got the task to upgrade an old ubuntu edgy server to hardy, and as this is an old installation i would like to know what i need to consider when i want to upgrade the system?12:33
user296how do I configure a guest session on 8.10 so the changes persist between reboots12:33
scunizi!upgrade | bayer12:33
ubottubayer: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes - see also http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/upgrading12:33
itai_michaelsonbayer,  i think you are looking at a reinstall12:33
Tmiziroday, no, the feature selects a random album, plays all tracks on it, and then selects a new random album12:33
zirodaybayer: you will need to go through feisty, then gusty and then to hardy. It may be easier to reinstall12:33
zirodayTmi: ah, sorry misunderstood12:34
Tmia great feature with amarok, but I'd rather have something gtk12:34
lmnop90210good morning12:34
zirodayuser296: the guest session is not able to do that AFAIK. You might want to create a new user instead12:34
lmnop90210can anyone point me to some documentation for enterprise rollout of the ubunbtu client12:35
scunizibayer: ziroday is right .. it might be less time consuming to reinstall.. however it's easy to reinstall if /home is on a seperate partition.  If this is an apache server then you'd want to backup /var/www and /etc/apache2 amoung other things.12:35

Huufartedscunizi, multiple keyboards on the same PC?12:39

Huufartedinteresting setup, I'll say.  I'd like to know the name of it.12:41
s3r3n1t7scunizi, that's kind of what i'm looking for yeah. But the main problem that i haven't found a way to get the mouse "jailed"  to a desktop. But i think the thing you suggested about the educational use is what i'm looking for. Do you have any links to refer?12:41

Boohbahartemis: to find the string 'bttv' in your kernel boot log.12:42
zirodayartemis: you search dmesg for the bttv string?12:42

s3r3n1t7scunizi, actually although the link is a tad bit old, the naming of what i need is well  formulated in there. Simultaneous local independent multi-user seems to be what i need.12:48
Extendwhat can i do to reload it or solve this problem12:48
MrCarlosziroday: useful stuff or neccessary?12:48
Huufartedpirx_  check /etc/services file12:48

Huufartedpirx_  :  cat /etc/services | grep 2512:48
zirodayMrCarlos: well the livecd runs fine currently. Go with the livecd unless you know you need something on the livedvd12:48
sipiorpirx_: postfix is the default smtp server12:49
scunizis3r3n1t7: that or dirivitives of it.. I'd also search for linux in education12:49
marcusdavidusganesh1: u can change grub screen here and also ubuntu splash12:49
MrCarlosziroday: thanks sir12:49
sipiorpirx_: as a general solution, try "sudo netstat -antup | grep <portnumber>"12:50
s3r3n1t7scunizi, Aye, i'm lookin into that.12:50
oCean_pirx_: "sudo netstat -anp |grep 25"12:50

Paddy_EIRE!paste | DUDAS13:05
ubottuDUDAS: 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)13:05
scunizilimboto: not good13:05
DUDASas you can see, eth0 hasn't got an ip13:05
s3r3n1t7Paddy_EIRE, it's a temp ban by floodbot, it'll auto unban ... it's so if someone posts a huge amount of text, the buffer which holds it is empty and he doesn't continue spamming.13:05
Huufartedlimboto, is it 'flashplugin-nonfree' ?13:05
sipiorgabriel_: simply upgrade the older install, i think13:05
vigoscunzi: I think I added the non-free and the GNU ones, I wish to be rid of the non-free or proprietary ones.13:06

Paddy_EIRESteffann, no13:06
Steffannhmm13:06
Paddy_EIRESteffann, unless you done something more specific13:06
scunizivigo: you'll have better results getting rid of gnash.. but either way is easy..just use synaptic to uninstall what you don't want.13:06

Paddy_EIRElimboto, use adobe-flashplugin as the other is crashy as all hell13:07
HuufartedDUDAS, I'm sorry but that really did make me laugh.13:07
Paddy_EIRESteffann, not a chance mate13:07
anxiolyticscunizi: no, it worked sometimes, not always. I think it depends on the app. OO doesn't work13:08
limbotoand others plugin like gnash etc will removed?13:08
sipiorDUDAS: so, eth0 is active, but has no address assigned. were you using dhcp or so?13:08
DUDASthat make me cry :-(13:08
Huufartedlimboto, if it says it will remove them, then it will do just that.13:08
MyTh88under kernel 2.6.24-23 i havn't problems with skystar2...sould i have some when i update from 8.04 to 8.10?13:08
scunizianxiolytic: most likely your paper size is defaulted at A4 and you need Letter or vice versa.. you can configure it in cup at http://localhost:63113:08
Huufartedlimboto, besides...  those ones aren't working, right?13:08

anxiolyticfantastic13:09
anxiolyticthanks!13:09
kokouwhich editor?13:09
quibblerlimboto: you have to remove gnash etc yourself13:09
Paddy_EIRElimboto, go to "System > Administration > Software Sources" then go to 3rd party tab and enable/tick the partners repository.. once dont quit software sources and reload your package list.. then do "sudo apt-get install adobe-flashplugin"13:09
kokouand what command do i type?13:09
MyTh88XxGoldxX: ususally you can play only 1 audio source at time13:09
Paddy_EIRElimboto, also remove any other flash installs such as gnash13:09
carpiikokou, try sudo nano instead of sudo gedit13:09
scunizianxiolytic: np.. :))13:09

cypherusHow would I go about moving a certain range of times (say between 08-00-00 - 16-30-00) to another folder. The format is  MM-DD-YY-HH-MM-SS.avi13:11

Guest92452scunizi: but I dont know how13:26
macmansipior, i was actually running gonf-editor as root . that was the issue13:26
sipiorUbuntu_noob: i'm not sure what this package did to your system, i'm afraid. it's not really part of ubuntu, so you might be best off asking the maintainers of the package for help.13:26
Scixis there and remote support tool for ubuntu like DameWare og TeamViewer?13:26

BigMoopiesHow would I be able to give it more than 1 directory to compare ? Such as if I wanted it to scan 2 externals for the same files? all I see is "fdupes options directory"13:33
sipiorUbuntu_noob: okay, but you've done that already. so what exactly is the problem? you mentioned you were hearing sounds from the card. what program was controlling that?13:33
Kingsy101Paddy_ERIE - isnt there a log or soemthing that can be read to see whats causing the problem? because I cant remember...13:33

KissakiSometimes (not definitely but also sometimes when I mouse and move over the windows header line) my header line becomes grey (like the rest pf the window). But not just like it's not focused, but the maximize and close button on the top right disappear as well. Only the line from the minimize button remain (not the button). The buttons as well as headerline seem to remain functional though. ???13:34
sipiordeany: try "ssh-copy-id", it's quite handy13:34
Kingsy101SHIT, sorry ppl13:34
locovicenhello13:34
deanyfunkyHat, thats the thing,  i cant... keeps askin for the password, even when i try ssh-copy-id13:34
Ubuntu_noobsipior, i installed tvtime and it said tvtime requires hardware YUY2 overlay support from your video card ............ so i installed this package to autoinstall it, i rebooted the system and i heard sound from startup13:35
deanyive even set the config to pubkeyauth NO, still wont accept the password..13:35

Kingsy101sorry again for flooding there13:35
sipiordeany: does it give an error about the key if you connect with ssh -v?13:35
rtx3462deany: you must generate the key pair on the client, then you ssh-copy-id to copy the public key to the server13:35
sipiorKingsy101: no worries, accidents happen :-)13:35
Paddy_EIREKingsy101, I will have a search about.. I cant remember specifically which logs should be looked at13:35
Ubuntu_noobsipior: without turning tvtime on.... and tvtime still doesn't work :/13:35
funkyHatdeany: so type the password and then it will put the key in the right place, then next time you won't have to type the password...13:36
deanyi have keys already generated on this machine, i use it to ssh to another machine already setup..13:36
BigMoopiesPaddy_EIRE, but how would I make it scan both of my externals ?  fdupes -r /media/My_Book /media/My_Book2 ?13:36
sipiorUbuntu_noob: but the sounds you're hearing are from the tv tuner? or just static?13:36
deanyits not accepting the password.. the pass is right.13:36
BigMoopiesPaddy_EIRE, Or just give it /media/ and let it go wild ?13:36

Paddy_EIREBigMoopies, that would take a while but yes you could do that13:36
Kingsy101lol13:36
sipiorUbuntu_noob: does the card also have an FM tuner on it?13:37

Ubuntu_noobsipior: yes it does13:37
BigMoopiesPaddy_EIRE, Just give it /media/ ?13:37
Paddy_EIREKingsy101, hehe.. do you have an attached NFS filesystem that perhaps did not shutdown correctly?13:37
Paddy_EIREyes13:37
Paddy_EIREas I said it may take a while depending on size :/13:37
BigMoopiesPaddy_EIRE, My_Book is 320 , My_Book1 is 160 , and the other drive is 36013:38

unr3a1I personally update everything that that is available in update manager, but a friend and I were debating and he was taking that windows ideology of only downloading and updating what you need.13:46
sky_Vonor: linux not but viruses can infect executable files -> and wine dont know what is and what is not virus13:46
Vonorsky_, and even if, per default you don't have write permissions on the binaries, unless you work as root (which you shouldn't), so even if viruses existed, they couldn't infect your files13:46
sipiorunr3a1: generally you want all updates, unless you have a good reason not to.13:46
Paddy_EIREBigMoopies, hell man.. is there no way to filter it down any.. I mean which type of file are you most interested in finding duplicates of?13:46

hehaothe point is somebody kicked me out without warning..13:49
castVonor: wine isn't any sort of security jail13:49
scunizisky_: if you're running exe's in wine you may be subject to virus's only in those exe's.  however I'm not sure if even clamav that Vonor suggests will protect anything that is running in wine.. you might consider using virtual box and loading a full windows environment with avg or whatever and running your programs from there.13:49
apraxasi have a problem. with picasa and ubuntu. i cant read my menu. and in other wine applications,too. know somebody how i can fix this13:49
Vonorsky_, replace it with an uninfected version or see if clamav or any other anti virus tool can fix it...or simply install anti virus soft in wine and let it do the check13:49
Paddy_EIREBigMoopies, can you not explicitly tell that fslint app to only look for files of that type then.. perhaps that will cut the search time right down?13:50

Paddy_EIREjunior_, no idea when it will be released to be honest14:26
CShadowRunsilv3r_m00n i'm running ubuntu hardy x64 on my Q6600 (quad core 2.4ghz)14:27
sky_Vonor: i dont understand this guide :X14:27
Paddy_EIREjunior_, its also not an official derivitive14:27
archmanPaddy_EIRE, you mean they are maybe being used?14:27
sipiorclee-saan: wherever you downloaded the software from, i guess.14:27
silv3r_m00nCShadowRun: so does it utilise the full potential of that processor ?14:27
junior_Paddy_EIRE: ok thanks14:27
Vonorwhats so hard to understand on chown?14:27
clee-saansipior: i guess that makes sense14:27
CShadowRunsilv3r_m00n linux handles multiple processors better than windows does, by a long shot14:27
silv3r_m00nCShadowRun: and like will it be twice as fast on core 2 duo ?14:27
Paddy_EIREarchman, very odd.. perhaps you still have packages using them... or that reference them in some way.. this is if you manually installed something14:27
CShadowRunsilv3r_m00n that's not how multiple cores work14:28
silv3r_m00nCShadowRun: hmm that I understand14:28
sky_Vonor: i tried chown root /media disk -1 but it doesnt work14:28
archmanPaddy_ EIRE: may be, yes.14:28
Vonorsky_, if you had taken a look at the manpage of chown you would have seen it's synopsis14:28
CShadowRundual core don't give you "twice as fast" i guess you could say "I can run twice as much"14:28
CShadowRununless the program you are running supports multiple cores, but there arn't many around that do14:28
Paddy_EIREarchman, check for locally installed packages if there are any in synaptic14:28
silv3r_m00nCShadowRun: by the way do you know whether windows xp runs on quadcore or not ?14:29
CShadowRunsilv3r_m00n yes, it does lol14:29
CShadowRunbut ubuntu most definatly does a better job of it14:29
Paddy_EIREarchman, if you could remove them possibly then clean the old headers.. then reinstall anything you locally installed yourself14:29
archmanPaddy_ EIRE: are those the ones i installed from, e.g.: launchpad? that are not in reps?14:30
Paddy_EIREarchman, otherwise I guess you could live with them for now :)14:30
Vonorsky_, most people in here could probably tell you how to use it correctly, but the learning experience and the feeling of joy after figuring something out on your own is worth more...so we don't spoil your fun :)14:30
Paddy_EIREarchman, oh you mean from ppa14:30
silv3r_m00nCShadowRun: but quad core processors are only 64bit right ?14:30
Paddy_EIREno14:30
CShadowRunsilv3r_m00n nope.14:30
silv3r_m00nhmm14:30
xiafeihello14:30
CShadowRunyou only really need a 64bit operating system if you have >= 4GB memory14:30
Paddy_EIREarchman, like say you installed something from source or downloaded a .deb and installed that way14:30
silv3r_m00nanyways will xp 32bit run on quadcore 64bit ?14:30
Paddy_EIREanything like that14:30
sky_Vonor: please say me correct command -_-14:30
Paddy_EIREnot ppas dont worry about ppas14:30
kitchesilv3r_m00n: yes but it won't be in 64bit14:30
silv3r_m00nkitche: hmm14:31
HuufartedAnybody know how to rotate the menus on the gnome panels?  Moved a panel and the "Applications, Places, and System" are all rotated vertically and I want to rotate them back.14:31
xiafeiwhat can we do ?14:31
CShadowRunsilv3r_m00n your question doesn't really make sense14:31
silv3r_m00nCShadowRun: yeah I understand that14:31
CShadowRunsilv3r_m00n yes windows xp 32bit will handle a quad core processor, but it won't be 64bit :P14:31
Vonorsky_, i'll quote you the manpage: synopsis: chown user:group file14:31
silv3r_m00nCShadowRun: I just had an assumption so wanted to clarify14:31
CShadowRunthe 64/32bit is only really for addressing large amounts of memory14:32
archmanPaddy_ EIRE: ok, got it. I'll live with those 120 megs :D14:32
Paddy_EIRExiafei, not very much without knowing the question ;)14:32
Paddy_EIREarchman, :)14:32
Huufartedsilv3r_m00n: it will run just fine on a 64 bit CPU, but you won't gain any of the benefits that 64-bit CPUs offer.14:32
silv3r_m00nCShadowRun: what about big number numericals ?14:32
CShadowRunsilv3r_m00n yes, 64bit processors can handle larger numbers14:32
silv3r_m00nbig registers can add and multiply bigger numbers I suppose14:32
silv3r_m00nhmm fine14:32
CShadowRun(providing you have a 64bit OS, and are programming in 64bit)14:33
magentarbut there are nearly no apps which make use of that fact14:33
morganThis morning update fucked up the screen resolution, i cannot choose 1280x1024 anymore... anybody had the same problem???14:33

Paddy_EIREI will testify to that :)14:33
bazhangIcebuntu, stop that14:33
CShadowRunsilv3r_m00n your processor is not 64bit, it merely supports a 64bit operating system :P14:34
morganHow can this have affected only me??14:34
silv3r_m00nwhat ?14:34
sky_Vonor: i am starting to be angry -_-14:34
silv3r_m00nCShadowRun: you mean its registers are not 64bit wide ?14:34
CShadowRunsilv3r_m00n you keep on saying you have a "64bit quad core" ... no you don't14:34
CShadowRunsilv3r_m00n your processor supports 64bit sure, but that doesn't mean it's called a 64bit quad core :P14:34

archmanPaddy_EIRE: np :) Thanks for the help14:35
Paddy_EIREanytime14:35
morganHavent anybody had problem with screen resolution after updating today??14:35
CShadowRunthat's like saying i have a "forwards car" ...it supports going forward? :D14:35
silv3r_m00nCShadowRun: I shall buy a new one ... currently am on a P4 1.7ghz14:35
Dreamglideri would like to see ubuntu running on the 8bit 6510 :)14:35
CShadowRunhehe14:35
Huufartedmorgan, I have not, but I'm only running 1024x76814:35
CShadowRunsilv3r_m00n but yea, dual/quad core processors have been out for a very long time, you won't have a problem doing whatever you need to on them14:35
scunizimorgan: nope.. you must be special14:36
silv3r_m00nCShadowRun: yes .. that's it14:36
CShadowRunthere are 8 core processors on the shelf now, and i belive i heard 128's are in the intel labs.14:36
Huufartedmorgan: sounds like a driver issue to me.14:36
morganits is very strange...14:36
HuufartedAnybody know how to rotate the menu title text on the gnome panels?14:36
IcebuntuCShadowRun:  they are already out by one of the firms14:36
clee-saanCShadowRun: 128 core processors ?14:36
CShadowRunclee-saan yea i think i remember reading an article about it a while back14:37
silv3r_m00nCShadowRun: 1 thing... since separate processes can take the 4 cores so ideally the system should be nearly 4 times faster if lot of processes are running all the time14:37
kushaloneon a single motherboard?14:37
clee-saanCShadowRun: that sounds a bit overkill to me14:37

Huufarted!who | kushalone14:37
magentarsilv3r_m00n, if you are installing ubuntu from scratch, it does not hurt to do a clean 64bit install. if you are using the 32bit version, the only real reason to switch would be if you have 4gigs or more ram.14:37
ubottukushalone: 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 :)14:37
morganhmm, i havent been needed to change configs fro screen resolution in years14:37
CShadowRunsilv3r_m00n no, very little programs support utilizing multiple cores14:37
morganis it called X.org nowadays?14:37
silv3r_m00nCShadowRun: but what about separate programs on separate cores14:37
CShadowRunsilv3r_m00n so as i said, your system WILL NOT be twice as fast, but you will be able to run twice as many programs14:38
CShadowRunyup, now your getting it14:38
HuufartedCShadowRun: incorrect.  Any multi-threaded programs will utilize multiple cores if necessary14:38
CShadowRunHuufarted that's what i said14:38
CShadowRun"very little programs support utilizing multiple cores" - clearly indicating that there are some that do, there just arn't that many of them.14:38
HuufartedCShadowRun: you said few programs utilize multiple cores and that's untrue14:38
morganis there a autoconfiguratio for xorg?14:38
CShadowRuni can't even think of any programs that support it :P14:38
HuufartedMost do that have a need to.14:39
silv3r_m00nCShadowRun: any multithreading application shud be able to do that14:39
CShadowRunbesides a few windows games14:39
magentarmake ;) for instance14:39
CShadowRunsilv3r_m00n yup14:39
scunizimorgan: what kind of card do you have?14:39
silv3r_m00nCShadowRun: so most apps are multithreaded14:39
morgannvidia14:39
CShadowRunsilv3r_m00n i guess thats a matter of opinion really14:39
scunizimorgan: do you have nvidia-settings installed?14:39
silv3r_m00nCShadowRun: fine.. not an issue14:39
Huufartedsilv3r_m00n: you've got the idea.  Any multi-threaded app will handle multiple CPUs.14:39
CShadowRuni think most arn't, some people think most are, i guess it's all down to what programs you actually use.14:39
silv3r_m00nI have to go to the market and get the price chart14:39
morganscunizi, yes!14:39
silv3r_m00nHuufarted: yeah14:39
n8tuserfmorgan -> try to run dexconf14:40
CShadowRunsilv3r_m00n i love my quad core, i do ALOT of multi tasking :)14:40
scunizimorgan: use that from terminal with sudo and you should be able to fix things.. xorg doesn't hold the rez info anymore14:40
CShadowRunI have a head for each one of my cores, haha.14:40
n8tuserfmorgan -> or sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg14:40
morganscunizi, yes your riight the nvidia drivers should handle it14:40
silv3r_m00nCShadowRun: that's good ...14:40
scunizimorgan: or I should say .. xorg.conf doesn't really hold info on the rez14:40
Huufartedsilv3r_m00n: there's no downside to going with multiple cores.  Your system will be able to handle more programs open at the same time, but individual programs themselves more than likely will not improve in performance.14:40
silv3r_m00nHuufarted: hmm14:40
IcebuntuCShadowRun:  have you heard about fusion processor from AMD14:40
CShadowRunyup, that's right14:40
CShadowRunIcebuntu nope14:40

IcebuntuCShadowRun:  it has a gpu core and a cpu core in a single processor okey scunizi14:41

IcebuntuCShadowRun:  come to #ubuntu-offtopic14:42
silv3r_m00nHuufarted: that's good performance for now14:42
Huufartedsilv3r_m00n: if you run one very heavy single threaded app on a single core and the same app on a multi-core, you won't see a performance increase14:42

VletFor some time now I've been experiencing long delays when logging into my 8.10 server from one particular machine through ssh and mysql gui tools even after a clean install of the OS on the client machine... What might cause this? From other machines, log-in time is normal.14:45
HuufartedVlet: bad routes on the machine.14:45
waylandbillVlet, probably the sshd is performing a lookup of your hostname.14:45
VletHuufarted: routes on the server machine?14:45
HuufartedVlet: or what he said.  :)  Both could cause it.  How much of a delay are we talking?14:45
HuufartedVlet: correct.  Possibly on the client machine, but I've mostly seen it on servers.14:46
VletHuufarted: mmm... 10, 15 seconds14:46
HuufartedVlet: yeah, I've seen routing issues take that long.  Are the PCs on different subnets?  Are they internal on a LAN?14:46
VletHuufarted: 100mbit lan14:46
VletHuufarted: where if I log in from home via cable, it's quick as hell14:47
waylandbillVlet, it couldn't hurt to add your hostname to the hosts file on the server machine. If that was the problem, it should cure it. If not, it doesn't hurt.14:47
Vletwaylandbill: I'll give it a try :)14:47
HuufartedVlet: so internal on the LAN the login times are 15 seconds or so?14:47

KissakiPaddy_EIRE: what's emerald?14:48
Paddy_EIREthe fancy window decorator14:49
Kissakiah, ok14:49
waylandbillHuufarted, Vlet, That would make sense. It would be able to do a lookup for a WAN just fine and not be able to do one unless there was a BIND or other DNS to provide info for the LAN computers.14:49
Paddy_EIREif you dont know what it is then you are probably not using it14:49

HuufartedVlet: What's the IP address of the LAN machine?  Also paste the contents of your /etc/resolv.conf on the server14:50
unr3a1TgWaKu, can you be more specific?  is your BIOS just bypassing the device during boot, or are you getting an error when trying to boot to it?14:50
HuufartedVlet: I don't think there's an issue with the resolv.conf, but might as well check.  I think waylandbill had a great idea with the hostname for that client in the hosts file14:50
TgWaKuno error messages, i downloaded ubuntu 8.10 through unetbootin and it extracted etc and put it on my usb stick. and asked me to reboot. so i did and the live menu did not show. it just booted straight into windows14:51

rtx3462{bosco}: what is it you want to hide from the user? other user's directories or the system itself?16:24
blip-LjL: that solved it.  thanks again.  just to make sure I understood this, the GPG is a way to authenticate into the custom repo, and since they changed their key (or it expired), this command I just ran retrieved a new key and saved it.  is that right ?16:24
rtx3462{bosco}: they cannot write in /bin and /usr/bin anyway16:25
LjLblip-: well, i think it's more like you never had the key for that PPA in the first place16:25
rikkardohello, ive extracted openarena into "/home/username/.openarena" - now i want to be able to start it by typing "openarena" into console - what have i to do?16:25
LjLblip-: but anyway, yes. well, it's not a way for *you* to authenticate to the repo, it's a way for the repo to authenticate *to* you, so you can be sure you're getting packages from it and not from someone else16:26
blip-rikkardo: I don't know why you put it in a hidden directory.. but anyway open a console, go to the directory and run the binary as such "./openarena"... if it doesn't work you need to add execute permissions on the file.    do that with "sudo chmod +x openarena"  (while you are inside the directory)16:27

new-tu I have a desktop PC with Ubuntu, and I've just bought a laptop and I installed Xubuntu. The laptop came with an older intel video card. I tried to configure the video by using the command "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg" either I tried to use "sudo: displayconfig-gtk" and also it didn't work.  Then I could find out that those tools were taken off from version 8.10.   Is the next version...17:35

scuniziubuntu_problemos: you have to allocate the space first.. format and then move things around.. unless it's swap...in which case you move swap to the end first so the unallocated space is next to what you want to make larger.18:04

scuniziubuntu_problemos: if swap is going to be between the unallocated space and what ever is at the beginning of the drive then create a new swap and change fstab to reflect that.. then on next boot you can delete the old swap partition so that space merges with the current unallocated space.. from there you might be able to just "expand" what's at the beginning of the drive (ext3?).. without formatting18:06

ftab_LjL: what about the virtualbox-ose?18:32
ftab_LjL: are you there?18:33
LjLftab_: no problem really, it's probably just that virtualbox-ose, being an ubuntu package, is compiled to try to use a theme that better matches your GNOME desktop (while still being a Qt app), while on the other hand the VirtualBox you download elsewhere is just a statically linked binary.18:33

Running 8.10 amd64 (wireless works fine at home)18:45
daftykinsyeah, check you've got the right one installed then divXjunky , it's possible a newer package ver is preventing your eggdrop from running as-is, or perhaps you need to create a path environment variable for where the libs are (as your error mentioned libtcl.8.5.so)18:46

zombinejudget_: I'm currently using gnome's network manager, and it works, but I'm still up for alternatives18:59
danbhfiveare there other interface builders like GLADE?18:59
hobanunop: search for the line starting: "Please note that this program was designed..."18:59
hobanunop: so it says there to use a tool like sysv-rc-conf or bum, yet both of those packages are not officially supported by canonical19:01
unophoban, that's not what it's saying - it's saying since there's limited functionality with update-rc.d (I disagree) - people are not encouraged to use it  - but that's subjective advice.19:02

ubottuyrlnry: fsck is the FileSystem ChecKer, which runs automatically when you boot if you didn't shutdown cleanly. Type "man fsck" for information on running it manually. The command "sudo shutdown -F -r now" will force a reboot and a filesystem check; "sudo touch /fastboot" will skip a filesystem check at next reboot21:24

RoAkSoAxtc111, yeah. first I tried clonning it, it works but the network interfaces get f****d up, and then trying creating snapshots with the save command, but when restoring you can see the changes made aftr taking the snapshot21:30
sys64738yes, i can open it up on the g3 OS9.221:30

jribsnowveil: like foo*.c22:03
cinexceej__: /etc/rc.local22:03
cinextry that22:03
Dr_willisceej_,  when a system boots. the /etc/rc.local script is ran22:03
eseven73felix-da-catz_zz:  no one cares that you're asleep, why change nick all the time, noisy away messages are for the loose!22:03
snowveilso, home/mike/.wine/* instead of just home/mike/.wine/ ?22:03
schnauzerI-Shot-Kennedy__: is there an option to create a usb startup disk under System > Administration? (I haven't used 9.04)22:03
I-Shot-Kennedy__let me check22:03
ceej__cinex: Dr_willis: ah ok :) thank you....I also think what I'm trying to run might be in correct also22:04
I-Shot-Kennedy__sure is, I just launched it. What does it do schnauzer?22:04
Dr_willisceej_,  make a script that runs all the stuff.. then run the script from /etc/rc.local via  scriptname &22:04
cinexceej__: everythingin /etc/init.d needs to be softlinked to one of the rc$runlevel directorys22:04

cinexceej i dont know python22:07
Dr_willisceej_,  dont use such a complex single line. make a script and break it down into somthimng more readable.22:07
cinexor nohup22:07
ceej__the python is fine22:07
I-Shot-Kennedy__I just found this: log writes killed the flash media. The problem wasn't just the frequency of the writes, but that the log writes tended to be small, frequent, and often to the same page of flash memory.22:07
ceej__Dr_willis: I would if I knew how :/22:07
Dr_willisceej_,  each command on its own line...22:07
usuarioAll my gtk apps menus are missing... except for firefox', does anyone know how to fix this?22:07

cinexceej__: does || mean or ?22:08
schnauzerI-Shot-Kennedy__: you mean on ext3?22:08
Dr_willisceej_,   im not sure what you are trying to do in the script iother then run a lot of commands it seems22:08
ceej__Dr_willis: but i need to cd into the dir and execute the command22:08
Dr_willisceej_,  so? tell the script to cd..22:08
sexcopterhi, just reading up on using nfs to share files on home network, and it talks about hosts.allow and hosts.deny. i like the idea of having ALL in .deny and granting specific access in .allow, but just wonder if i need to make any entries for localhost, or is that unnecessary?22:08
ceej__Dr_willis: I just want to cd in then run22:08
Dr_willisceej_,  time to spend 10 min reading the Advanced bash scripting guide I think22:08
ceej__nohup python web2py.py -a 'a' -p 800322:08
crdlbusuario: did you try to get a mac-style global menu bar at some point?22:08
ceej__and then run nohup python web2py.py -a 'a' -p 800422:08
crdlbusuario: firefox is not a gtk app, which explains why it's not affected22:09
Dr_willisceej_,  so you put those commands in the script.22:09
ceej__then cd into another dir and run nohup python web2py.py -a 'a' -p 800522:09

ceej__Dr_willis: ah ok, can i just put it in rc.local?22:09
Dr_willisrather straight forward  - you may want a & at the end of the commands also.22:09
BenLordhello?22:09
I-Shot-Kennedy__although it sounds plausible. log writes are constant and could do that22:09
Dr_willisceej_,  rc.local is just a script.. so of course.22:09
ceej__Dr_willis: thank you :)22:10
Dr_willisceej_,  how did you comd up what that line in  the first place?     cd /root/klasproducts || nohup python web2py.py -a 'a' -p 8003 || nohup python web2py.py -a 'a' -p 8004 ||      the || may or MAY not be what you really want22:10

oCean_raistlyn: I think that wrektjet means, that it is quite easy to partition and/or use diskspace that has not been formatted/partitioned during initial install23:27
pepperjacksir_yodle: im sure there are nice graphical tools too23:27
raistlynif ur formatting ntfs r u iinstalling windows ?23:28
sir_yodlepepperjack: thanks, that's perfect.  needed to find a module name.  is that the best way to do so?23:28
raistlynur probably right ocean unfortunately wasnt very clear in statement23:29
oCean_raistlyn: one can access ALL space at ANY time. Any not-used space can easily be partitioned and formatted, and then used23:29
oCean_raistlyn: indeed :)23:29
wrektjeti want to in the future install windows23:29
pepperjacksir_yodle: well to identify the module you need yes. like it you needs to know the chipset or something of your wireless card23:29
wrektjetbut the partioning tool in the installer doesntoffer ntfs23:29
sir_yodleactually I needed to whitelist the module in acpi-support to keep it alive when suspending.  otherwise my wifi gets killed even when I lock the screen.  hope this works, bout to find out23:30
oCean_wrektjet: Indeed. Why would a Linux installer need NTFS?23:30
wrektjetlol. it wouldnt!23:30

raistlynbut then again i am lazy23:30
elli222it canoh wait23:30
wrektjetcan i go get dinner?23:30
