dr_willisuser16:  it may be the user needs to bne in the proper group01:14
dr_willis ./dev/ is built 'on the fly' thats why changes dont stick. as a Dirty work around. You could pur the command to 'fix' it in /etc/rc.local01:15
dr_willisand err.. cdrecord wouldent be writing to /dev/sdc1   it would be /dev/sdc01:15
user16dr_willis: the user is in the proper group (cdrom) but cdrecrod and wodim (simlink are both owned by root:root01:17
user16should cdrecord in /usr/bin be owned by root:cdrom?01:18
dr_willisthats the owner of the binary.. it wouldent make much sence for them to be owned that way i think01:19
user16do changes in the usr/bin directory stick?01:19
user16and I don't know what the 'fix' is to put it into /etc/rc.local :-)01:19
dr_willisYou just said you did some command to change the permissions in /dev/01:20
user16yes...put that same one into rc.local? chmodding the device to 777?01:20
dr_willisyes.....01:21
dr_willisnot a good fix.. but a fix i guess01:21
dr_willisbe sure you get the right device01:21
user16ok...it's wierd that this is a recurrent problem on some of my systems, but not on all01:21
=== zero is now known as Guest48175
dr_willisIm not in ubuntu at the moment so cant test. ive never had any issues with it however01:22
user16i've probably put hardy on about a dozen systems now, and issues with perms on optical drives are recurrent, right after initial installation01:23
dr_willisYou are installing from cd, not from a usb-thummbdrive?01:23
user16but not on every system...can't seem to be able to determine when it'll come up...i'm installing from the mini.iso usually01:24
dr_willisinitial user cant burn either eh? or all users? or just some users?01:24
=== Guest48175 is now known as zero
=== zero is now known as Guest39509
user16initial user can't burn, right from the get-go...that initial user always has sudo priviledges and is usually the only user01:25
dr_williswhy are you even using the mini.iso?01:26
user16and as I said, this and similar probs with optical drives occur on many systems, but not all...maybe 50% of systems after clean install01:26
user16i like the mini.iso because it's faster than alternate or livecd install cds...always keep putting off getting my pxe install server configured01:28
dr_willisi alweays thougjht ubuntu set up a /dev/dvd or /dev/cdrom /dev/dvdrw links to point to the real device..  could be the permissions on those are wrong.01:28
dr_willisI put the alternative cd on a bootable thumb drive.. makes it very snappy :)01:28
dr_willisof course all the updates take as long as the initial install.01:28
user16exactly...hence the mini.iso...don't have to do updates01:28
dr_willis You just have to install everything to begin with.. over and over and over. :)01:29
dr_willisid say test out a normal install/dekstop and see if you can spot any differances01:29
user16because initial install is done with newest versions available01:29
user16or maybe get off my a*** and tackle the pxe install server again :(01:30
dr_willisi just set up a  apt-cach server and let all the rest of the pcs in the lan use that one01:31
user16yeah, but you're better at this kind of stuff than I :-) i'm doing so much other stuff (like marketing, <ugh>) i end up putting more advanced learning off01:32

user16dr_willis: thanks, looking at the howto now...will consider it as a substitution for that pxe install server with all it's many parts...(hate building dhcp servers!)01:40
dr_willisif they are identical machines.. you can clone them in other ways01:40
user16they're never identical machines...hardware depends on the donations i get01:42
user16and canonical still needs to fix some of their official documentation...these days they're saying vsftpd is so superior over other ftp server programs...but only half the steps are there, so, not surprisingly,  following the howto doesn't work01:45
user16i can't believe they've let the documentation bug in the apache howto survive all these years :(01:46

xeviouswhat about my facebook?05:52

After making a copy of those and renaming back to original locks should have gone. And indded browser history and back button work again. However the google toolbar doesnt: no history neither any search result, just ignoring me. What elese could it be?11:08
larsaamjustinnfx: not sure if I remember, but should be to go trough the normal install procedure, but no reinstall,11:08
larsaamjustinnfx: maybe investigate why the grub was not installed?11:08
useroneisnt netstat a command?11:08

mefisto__bonez46: yes. install ubuntu-desktop11:50
mefisto__bonez46: you can choose which to log in to at the login screen11:50
bonez46does kbuntu have a torrent client included, and if so, what's it name?11:54
mefisto__ktorrent11:54
bonez46mefisto__: ok, next question. where's a launcher? to lauch ktorrent?11:55
mefisto__bonez46: should be in the menu, in the "internet" submenu. or alt-F2 and type ktorrent11:56
bonez46mefisto__: thanks.. I appreciate the tips..11:57
useroneis there some package that provides better firefox integration? I only see ubufox in adept, is it for kubuntu too?11:58
mefisto__bonez46: one thing you should know about having both kde and gnome installed: the menus in both desktops will be kind of cluttered with apps from both. you might see some things in your menu without icons11:58
Dillizari dont understand  kubuntu 8.10, kde4 dosnt have desktop but kubuntu 8.10 have 2?11:58
ActionParsnipDillizar: how do you mean by "doesnt have desktop"12:00
useroneI tried to install ubuntu desktop and it didnt end up so good, also I got 2 network manager applets and none worked12:00
DillizarActionParsnip well desktop in kde4.1 its just a widget12:01
mefisto__Dillizar: you are talking about the folder /home/username/Desktop ?12:01
Dillizaryes12:02
mefisto__Dillizar: if you want the Desktop folder to appear on the desktop as it did in kde 3, you can upgrade to kde 4.2 and switch the desktop to "folder view" mode12:03
Dillizarmefisto__ i point was that 4.1 doesnt have desktop but yet you can choose from two12:08
Dillizar:D12:08
mefisto__Dillizar: choose from two? two what? two desktops?12:10
bonez46mefisto__: one more question.. how do I bring up the menu you mentioned before, not with alt-f2, but the other one12:10
bonez46I installed ubuntu desktop, but it halted before it finished updating grub..12:11
mefisto__bonez46: the default menu shortcut is alt-F1 I believe. or just click the menu button12:11
Dillizaryes12:12
bonez46ok, I see the K menu button.. but there  was another I accessed accidentally.. and it listed ktorrent and others.. but now I can't find it again, and not at alt-f1 either..12:13
mefisto__bonez46: did you do the install in commandline?12:13
mefisto__bonez46: you have another menu? is it lancelot? or the old style Kmenu?12:15
bonez46hmmm not sure.12:15
mefisto__Dillizar: I don't know what you mean. what 2 desktops can you choose?12:16
bonez46as for the install of ubuntu-desktop. I booted with an 8.10 ubuntu disk. ran install.. it got to a screen near the end.. and just froze with blank screen and cursor. and that was it..12:16
mefisto__bonez46: wait, I thought you already had kubuntu installed12:17
bonez46in 30" .. I have downloaded 20 mb of a 1.6 gb .iso file..12:17
bonez46I have kbuntu installed.12:17
bonez46but I think I am more a gnome type. just seems an easier interface for me.. so I wnat to installll it instead of kbuntu..12:18
ActionParsnipbonez46: you can just run: sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop and you can switch over12:18
bonez46ok..12:18
ActionParsnipbonez46: you dont have to reinstall the whole OS just for a different DE12:18
mefisto__bonez46: yes, what ActionParsnip said. and if you want to remove kde completely, look here: http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/puregnome12:19

KawaiiGourry666Hi everyone. If someone is not too busy, I was hoping to get help with Skype capturing my microphone. I've installed a SB Audigy soundcard, since I fried my onboard sound card a couple of months ago. I can capture audio in Audacity but getting no luck with Skype. I've done some searching but just feel like I'm running into dead ends.13:52
mefisto__bazhang: I convert flv to avi all the time and they are quite watchable.13:52
bazhangmefisto__, then you are less picky than I :)13:53
CostaRicanQuakermefisto__, what about ffmpeg -i old-file.flv new-file.mpg ? is it better to convert to avi or to mpeg?13:53
mefisto__CostaRicanQuaker: I think it depends on the original flv and how that is encoded13:54
mefisto__CostaRicanQuaker: look at youtube-dl man page. there is a "format" option (but I don't know how it works or how well it works)13:55

mefisto__Kasm279: it seems to me that you might be logging out when a program with root privileges is running, and so the session is saved. and when the session is restored on next login, it tries to restart the program that had root privileges, and that confuses kdesudo somehow21:33
Kasm279ok21:34
Kasm279it does it evry time i log in21:34

jpedrozamefisto__: For a while I had Jaunty on this same laptop, as a test laptop, and it worked fine. Since I reverted to Intrepid (clean Install) it is having this issue.23:04
mefisto__jpedroza: ok, jaunty uses powerdevil for power management. I don't think intrepid does, but I think powerdevil is in intrepid repos, so it's installable23:05
