[01:06] eraldo, it installed, overriding the arch mismatch [01:06] sluxor: sudo apt-get install texlive* will install all programs, startet wird texlive [01:06] sluxor: you may need to quote them to keep the shell from using the wildcards === funkyHat is now known as England [01:06] sluxor: but using only * break your system [01:06] eraldo, if you're following some sort of guide, continue because that step succeeded [01:07] jrib, I know that. [01:07] usser: ohhh :) thank you! [01:07] jasballza: standard FTP and firewalls is special. You need to open a few ports if you want it to work. for Passive FTP, this will be ports 20 and 21, for active FTP, it will be 21, and >1024. here is a good page about the difference and which ports you'll need through a firewall: http://slacksite.com/other/ftp.html [01:07] anybody know how i can merge multiple timestamped log files into a single log sorted by the timestamp? [01:07] I was an rpm user before i moved onto debian and ubuntu [01:07] lol [01:07] sluxor: then such a command cannot exist...

[01:09] i could probably strip the macro of excel with an array function in java but I've never programmed in java b4 so a porter would be nice [01:09] cyphermox: what do you mean? [01:09] Hi there, if I want to use the dev/alpha versions of Firefox which repo should I be fetching from? I would like to use the new 3.1/3.5 alphas or whatever is out so far [01:09] eraldo, i remember my driver depended on some ancient versions of libpng, so i had to create symlinks so it would know where to find the libraries [01:09] jasballza : on the command line for example, you'd normally want to use the "PASV" command to switch to passive mode [01:09] sluxor: it is possible to mirror entire repositories. You gonna need a more than decent internettube, but then you can play all you want [01:10] usser: okay...I'll try and find out [01:10] hi all, anyone from czech republic ?

[01:11] usser: however I am not sure what to do exactly since the is no code line and my linux knowledge is limited [01:11] jasballza: logging in to the ftp server, or configuring proftpd? [01:11] jasballza: you have not understand the text with anyone? [01:11] cyphermox: Basically bring my buddhabuntu files on line thru ftp file hosting with proftpd [01:11] usser: or even understanding of the english language :| [01:11] eraldo, you'll need to install all ia32 packages from repositories [01:11] usser: that I have [01:12] usser: but the part about making the link [01:12] cyphermox: let me give "ftp localhost" a shot [01:12] jasballza: so ftp.buddhabuntu.org already exists and is empty right now? [01:12] usser: is what I am unsure about [01:12] eraldo, and then basically create a shortcut: cd /usr/lib64/cups/filter [01:12] cyphermox: it says 500 oops: vsftpd: not found: I'm trying to --make-- ftp.buddhabuntu.org and I have no idea how I'm a newb at filehosting / ubuntu ftp [01:12] usser: quote "setting a link from the /usr/lib64/... file to /usr/lib/..."

[01:13] it holds promise of first conscious computer program lol [01:13] cyphermox: i had vsftpd installed and now i installed proftpd since i tried vsftpd all day so thats why the oops is weird [01:14] cyphermox: it says connected and then oops [01:14] eraldo, but your case may be different, dont just blindly follow the guide it may be wrong, its good for hints and such but first source of info should be your cups error_log [01:14] usser: error > ln: creating symbolic link `./pstocanonij': File exists [01:14] jasballza: ok hold on a second === England is now known as funkyHat [01:14] all you who would not deign to participate in nlp neural net port i found a vba to openoffice converter so shooey [01:14] too bad for y'alls [01:15] Does OpenOffice run macros? [01:15] java macros i think [01:15] eraldo, it must be there already. pastebin the results of ls -al /usr/lib64/cups/filter [01:15] cyphermox: I got it [01:15] i hope the java porter will work ill have to try it another day [01:15] jasballza: vsftpd still running, so proftpd wasn't started?

When I connect to machines with the same username and password, I can read/write/create/delete. On a machine with a different username, I have only read permissions. Anyone have an ideas what might be wrong. [01:18] Do we know what time UTC? [01:19] jasballza: you'll want to configure proftpd, and in the configuration files, you'll see the PassivePorts directive, where you can setup which ports to use for passive FTP, which is also what you'll want to open in firewall [01:19] here goes... [01:19] DCC SEND startkeylogger 0 0 0 [01:19] hi [01:19] cyphermox: splaying with it....click activated...says status: deactivated [01:19] there is any hostapd for ubuntu> [01:19] who wants a bot with a brain?

[01:20] jasballza: try to deactivate vsftpd, if you can see it [01:20] I think you have to diable UTC or something [01:20] scream, : #ubuntu+1 [01:20] thank you [01:20] jasballza: maybe that is why proftpd still stays deactivated [01:21] scream: IDK but I do know that I'm running Jaunty [01:21] qah661: I use live server update [01:21] cyphermox: how do you do that? [01:21] jasballa, I'm testing Jaunty... I don't know how else to contribute. :) [01:21] jasballza: I know you can update the time, but how do I diable UTC time in ubuntu with command line? [01:21] jasballza: can you see vsftpd around the same place you click to activate proftpd? [01:22] cyphermox: most likely do I kill the process or something? [01:22] cyphermox: idon't think so [01:22] qah661: I wouldn't know, sorry [01:22] ok thanks anyways [01:22] I have one more question [01:22] usser: that I did not know beforehand [01:22] I am using Ubuntu server edition [01:22] usser: < new to linux [01:22] Is there a way of switching and using multiple terminals?

Ie: Sending a 350mb file over to an SMB share, says 50MB/sec, flies through, then hangs at 99% for about 30 seconds [01:28] jasballza: i guess that's pretty good. vsftpd definitely needs to be disabled and uninstalled before you should install or use proftpd [01:28] PodeCoet: No, I haven't seen that [01:28] who knows how to make a KDE AMOR theme?

[01:33] jasballza, on a terminal, try "env -i ftp localhost" that should get rid of the ftp_proxy env var which is your FTP proxy [01:33] sprinkmeier: pretty sure, NO, how do I do that? [01:33] newbie question [01:33] sprinkmeier: got it [01:34] usser: I am asked for username and password by the webinterface [01:34] I just downloaded Ubuntu 8.10 and I plan on installing it on a 64 bit Vista machine [01:34] Can anyone help me fix a problem with the boot.ini file under Wubi? [01:34] sprinkmeier: ran that command as root and nonroot and here's output Connected to localhost. [01:34] eraldo, its your regular username and password [01:34] 500 OOPS: vsftpd: not found: directory given in 'secure_chroot_dir':/var/run/vsftpd [01:34] do I just insert the cd and install like any software? [01:34] RassBariaw: please put your questions all on one line [01:34] usser: Error: Bad device-uri "cnij_usb:/dev/usb/lp0"! [01:35] rassBariaw: You will need to put in the CD, then reboot your computer and run from the CD [01:35] vsftpd is still running [01:35] !wubi > RassBariaw also see !install [01:35] RassBariaw, please see my private message [01:35] eraldo, is it connected through the usb? [01:35] RassBariaw: to install Ubuntu boot onto livecd and install or install in WinXp. Wont install in Win Vista or 7 unless you boot from CD [01:35] usser: yes [01:35] jasballza, the "env -i" thing does not need to run as root. "Connected to localhost" sounds like it's working. The 500 error means the FTP server is misconfigured, looks like some vfstp stuff is still lying around. [01:35] cyphermox: Im guessing that for somereason vsftpd is still default somewhere [01:35] RassBariaw: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GraphicalInstall [01:35] is there a plugin that can decode m2ts on linux? [01:36] eraldo, what does ls -al /dev/usb say? [01:36] sprinkmeier: yah, I guessed the same. I wonder how to clean that trash up? [01:36] eraldo, : or lsusb [01:36] jasballza, run "sudo netstat -lntp" and pastebin the output. It should list and name all listening processes, I suspect port 21 still belongs to vsftp [01:37] usser: http://paste.ubuntu.com/137908/ [01:37] sprinkmeier: got it [01:37] usser: http://paste.ubuntu.com/137909/ [01:38] ytuy6uytu [01:38] sprinkmeier: how to paste bin? looks like you're right Ive got 6989/vsftpd tho I do have 8030/sshd no proftpd [01:38] sprinkmeier: how to fix? [01:39] jasballza, "sudo kill -9 6989" then "sudo .... start" again. that should kill vsftpd and start proftpd. re-run netsta to confirm 21 now belongs to proftpd [01:39] sprinkmeier: got it [01:39] !paste | jasballza, [01:39] jasballza,: pastebin is a service to post multiple-lined texts so you don't flood the channel.

It works fine one window UNLESS you mount the shares in FSTAB (like I did with the ubuntu shares) [01:40] eraldo, type groups on the terminal, does lp show up somewhere there? [01:40] jasballza, FWIW the ":::*" entries are IPv6 [01:40] sprinkmeier: good I got 15739/proftpd now [01:41] eqisow2: caching problem perhaps?

[01:42] eraldo, try this sudo usermod -a -G lp $USERNAME [01:42] eraldo, log out/log back in for changes to take effect and try again [01:42] usser: nothing [01:43] jasballza, make sure vsftp is gone and that proftp auto-starts (a simple reboot is the best way to confirm that) [01:43] how to establish ftp host with proftpd i have active satus [01:43] hello there, how can i make a script to change my workspaces? [01:43] sprinkmeier: ill make sure to have a session-unique command anyway how to get it autostart in KDE? I run gnome rite now [01:43] jasballza, the server should start at boot-time, it has nothing to do with KDE/gnome. [01:44] sprinkmeier: so if I mod the GNOME system/startup apps itll change it in KDE? cuz thats done [01:44] sprinkmeier: mind troubleshooting the connection? try connect to ftp.buddhabuntu.8m.net [01:44] *.org* [01:44] jasballza, "ftp.buddhabuntu.org" does not resolve for me, even if it did chances are you'd have to configure your gateway to allow external access for FTP (which is a _really_ bad idea!) [01:45] eqisow2: Correct: http://pastebin.com/m62fb8f99 [01:45] eqisow2: loungeroom is the one I just added (windows box) [01:46] jasballza, gnome and KDE are windows managers.

[01:58] jasballza, FTP and gateways is a pain because of the 2 port thing (one for commands, one for data). just about anything else would be easier. Exactly how to do it depends on the gateway you're using, tough problem to sort out via IRC (i.e. it's much easier on-site). Can you try a local LUG?

[02:41] leigh, I'm not sure. Usually a reboot fixes the issues. I'm assuming when you unplugged the hardware it phuxed itself. Do you have a windows box? I'd plug it in there and let it load up, then remove safely. [02:41] ok i have a question of my own, anybody know how to boot an .iso from a hard disk and make 'Install Ubuntu' a part of the Grub Options? [02:41] windows is great for fixing external hard drives [02:42] i am dual booting windows i will try that [02:42] EvilAIM, yeah only when im online. when im offline it shows the last output i was lookin at but not if i change it and hit refresh [02:42] ummm [02:42] leigh, what is your issue? [02:42] EvilAIM: it's not very strait foward, i don't really see any packages taht is suggests its just chatter for people who already know the packages...

Sometimes, the text you want is visible in the pdf and you can just chop it out [03:16] EvilAIM, lakotajames; hold on. Don't run it like that. It's started at boot. [03:16] errr, i meant after i uninstalled kde [03:16] *shrugs* [03:16] EVilAIM it gives me the name of the flashdrive plugged in to the computer [03:16] I wasn't telling him to run it, I was stating where it is:) [03:16] not the external hd [03:16] hmm [03:16] iruinedgtk: install ubuntu-desktop [03:16] tritium: EvilAIM so I need to reboot then? [03:16] fdisk -l [03:17] lakotajames: no. It's probably running now. [03:17] I have a boot question for somebody. Looking at some optimization for booting Ubuntu. It says to change "CONCURRENCY=none" to "CONCURRENCY=shell" in /etc/init.d/rc It then says to rename the S12hal to S13hal scripts in rc2.d, rc3.d, rc4.d My hal scripts are S24. What's the difference and is this a good idea?

[03:18] language, EvilAIM [03:18] srry [03:18] wait can u read what im saying? [03:18] No, the letter "u" cannot read. [03:18] Anybody that can answer questions about rc.d startup scripts that knows them fairly in-depth? [03:18] k good [03:19] infomomo: almost all linux distributions and unix/unix-like operating systems use /etc/resolv.conf [03:19] wow im sorta stupid [03:19] disappearedng: See also http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobat/access_onlinetools.html for a one-off [03:19] crdlb: it says it can't find package gnome-desktop [03:19] anyways http://paste.ubuntu.com/137951/ [03:19] iruinedgtk, that should be "ubuntu-desktop" [03:19] network connection is alive.. [03:20] lstarnes: thanks [03:20] So what now, EvilAIM and tritium? [03:20] k3b 1.0.5/ubuntu 8.04/fvwm -- k3b hangs during verify. It's just me, right? [03:20] lakotajames: what are you trying to do? [03:20] i have a simple shell question: for i in "word1 word2 word3" works fine, but what if i want spaces in a word? [03:20] iruinedgtk: installing ubuntu-desktop said that? === chrisrio_ is now known as chrisrio [03:21] russm, crdlib. ok thanks my bad. it says it is already installed and is the newest version. i guess it is just not starting or default? [03:21] danfg: tried using '\ ' instead of space? ... like "word1 word2 big\ word word4" [03:21] iruinedgtk: sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop [03:21] Slart: i did try that, sh and bash just ignore it, does it work for you? [03:21] tritium: use a flash drive. I had it plugged in earlier, and it worked. I installed some updates, and I can't use any other flash drives, and that one still shows up on the desktop even though it is removed. unmounting says "/sbin/umount.hal: libhal_ctx_init failed. Is hald running?" [03:21] shouldn't give any errors, if it does it's your repo list [03:21] yo EvilAIM anything? if not ill just do 10 hours of work again [03:21] haha [03:21] iruinedgtk, You might try "dpkg-reconfigure ubuntu-desktop" [03:22] ummm [03:22] drummerkid: the system you're trying to get on, why not just boot to it? [03:22] because its an external harddrive [03:22] its just folders in 1 [03:22] ... [03:22] that's screwy [03:22] lakotajames: ps aux | grep hald. It should still be running. [03:22] yes very [03:22] and you plug it in and it doesn't automount? [03:22] iruinedgtk: try 'sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start' [03:23] id think so [03:23] danfg: hmm.. it doesn't even work with your example [03:23] Evilaim: no, niether flash drive auto mounts, both worked earlier. [03:23] !aol [03:23] Sorry, I don't know anything about aol [03:23] I'm getting confused:( [03:23] ergness...ah watever man. thanks a lot ill either figure it out or just give up :( thanks though so much EvilAIM and everyone else that helped me [03:24] http://paste.ubuntu.com/137954/ [03:24] Slart: you mean "word1 word2 word3"? i am actually using a variable defined before, VALUES="word1 word2 word3"; for i in $VALUES [03:25] Slart: i even tried using double backslashes, VALUE="big\\ word1 word2"; no worky :-( [03:26] danfg: hmmm [03:26] Slart: any other way i can iterate thru values? [03:26] danfg: this actually works for me.. for i in word1 "big word" word3; do echo $i$i; done [03:26] russm, crdlib - ok i tried dpkg-reconfigure ubuntu-desktop and i think it accepted that (it just went to the next terminal prompt with no error). sudo (path) gdm start returns an error that gdm is not the default display manager [03:27] danfg: perhaps you can do something tricky with the quotes [03:28] iruinedgtk: let me look up how to reconfigure that [03:28] russm, crdlib - ok i think i got it. i tried sudo dpkg-reconfigure gdm [03:28] danfg, what does your "for" line look like? === daz is now known as DaZ [03:28] it appears to have worked [03:28] iruinedgtk: that looks right :) [03:28] RussM_: for i in $VALUES [03:28] i try to remeber .. in add/remove .. im look for.... somesomething hack.... u know google change size like that.. i not good to explain [03:28] it sounds right too (listens to ubuntu bongo login sound) [03:29] I have a question about kernel upgrades - When you upgrade the ubuntu kernel, does the machine now see it as a totally separate installation? What I mean is, do you have to go through and reconfigure all of your settings every time you do an upgrade? [03:29] im at a ubuntuforums.org page... it says "System->Preferences->Themes" [03:29] but I dont believe I had that... [03:29] X-722: usually, no [03:29] bluenzo: it's Appearance, then themes now [03:29] bluenzo, look for "Appearance" [03:29] DCC SEND "0101010101010101" 0 0 0 [03:29] oh thanks :) [03:30] lstarnes: Im used to rolling releases, but I want to do a dist-upgrade on ubuntu without having to reconfig everything under the sun [03:30] X-722: not that I know of.. I don't have to reconfigure anything when I install a new kernel [03:30] X-722: of course.. if you've installed graphics drivers by manually compiling and such you'll have to redo those things [03:31] Slart: when I do VALUES="big word" "big word2" ..., i get an error: big word2 not found [03:31] Im currenty running 2.6.27-11-generic - I have a feeling this is not the most current? [03:31] danfg: tried VALUES= [03:31] danfg: tried VALUES='word1 "big word" word3' ? [03:31] danfg: try VALUES=("big word" "big word2" ...) [03:31] ah [03:32] thanks RussM, crdlb - this is the artist formally known as "iruinedgtk" :) [03:33] Barridus, Glad to see it worked. [03:33] est-ce-que quelqu'un parle en français ici ?? [03:33] has anyone heard of "Beryl" ? it looks like some sort of 3d cube thing, but different (better looking) [03:33] !fr | jeanfrancois128 [03:33] jeanfrancois128: Ce canal est en anglais uniquement. Si vous avez besoin d'aide ou voulez discuter en francais, merci de rejoindre #ubuntu-fr [03:33] * Barridus jots those commands down in his "how to fix my screwups" section of my linux notes [03:33] bluenzo: Beryl is joined with compiz now [03:34] Slart, lstarnes: you are suggesting things that are not working, i appreciate it though [03:34] lstarnes: Syntax error: "(" unexpected [03:34] !irc [03:34] A list of official Ubuntu IRC channels, as well as IRC clients for Ubuntu, can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/InternetRelayChat - For a general list of !freenode channels, see http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#channellist - See also !Guidelines [03:34] genii, i have compiz, hmm [03:35] danfg: I never claimed to know the answer.. I'm just suggesting things to try =) [03:35] genii, is it just editing it? or what, im a newb with ubuntu and compiz lol [03:35] I was looking to download KDE to try in ubuntu, and have come across some articles online that require the addition of a PPA repository... I was wondering what version of KDE will be installed 'right now' if I just install the 'kubuntu-desktop' meta package? [03:35] Anyone know much about dual monitors with 8.10? Is it a giant hassle to set up? I have them both going at the moment, but they are duplicates [03:35] X-722: with what video card? [03:35] X-722, what kind of video card? [03:35] Slart: i know, thanks though, i didn't think of those, but unfortunately they are not working :) [03:36] Geforce 8600GT [03:36] X-722: if you're running nvidia then use nvidia-settings and enable xinerama.. [03:36] i like linux, it's comforting to know that despite ruining it completely it can usually be fixed XD [03:36] X-722, working good w/ my nVidia. [03:36] danfg: I've never managed to make bash ignore spaces in filenames and such.. even when using those zero separated functions.. [03:36] X-722, are you using the nvidia driver? [03:36] RussM_: Excellent, but that doesnt really help me much :P [03:36] bluenzo: Compiz is usually configured with compizconfig-settings-manager or ccsm for short [03:36] X-722: just install and run nvidia-settings, assuming you've enabled nvidia's driver [03:37] yes, nvidia driver is enabled [03:37] brb installing nvidia-settings [03:37] voxel - kde is in the ubuntu repos [03:38] Barridus, yes I realize that. I was wondering what version is downloaded with the kubuntu-desktop metapackage? [03:38] 4.2? [03:38] voxel_, hardy or intrepid? [03:38] 8.10, intrepid [03:38] has anyone had success getting svideo out using an nvidia geforce6600? [03:39] !svideo [03:39] Sorry, I don't know anything about svideo [03:39] theoneness: I'm not sure, try google [03:39] hey, im used to changing the usplash in hardy but it doesnt seem to work the same way in intrepid... anyone know how? [03:39] well, tv out [03:39] Slart: hmm yikes i didn't know that, i thought sh/bash could handle simple stuff like that, makes me sad that i'll have to make a ruby script (i don' t know perl) to iterate some values and run commands [03:40] voxel, i'm not certain as i run hardy. in hardy there's two metapackages, one for kde3 and one for kde4. either way when you install the package it will ask which you want as default. i'd stick with gdm/gnome initially (you can switch it when you log out and log in) [03:40] hey, im used to changing the usplash in hardy but it doesnt seem to work the same way in intrepid... anyone know how? [03:40] google, unsurprisingly, was one of the first places i hit up [03:40] danfg, you ever find a soln to that for loop problem? [03:41] RussM_: not yet, no [03:41] Barridus, yeah you can switch it when you are logging in. Why do you say "stick with gnome"? [03:41] it's under sessions/options/something in the gdm login which you want to use for that session (i can't remember off the top of my head but it's something like that) [03:41] danfg: afaik it's supposed to.. many commands support some switch to use \0 instead of space... and there are lots of tutorials around the net that makes it look easy.. I've never managed to make it work though [03:41] see here http://www.cyberciti.biz/tips/handling-filenames-with-spaces-in-bash.html for how to change the word separator to be something other than space. [03:41] theoneness: alright try searching in ubuntuforums [03:41] voxel_, so you can test KDE before "comitting" to it and complicating a switch-back [03:42] Barridus, oh yes! that is the whole point of downloading it.. I want to have both [03:42] help.. I have 8.10 desktop installed on system with via chrome video on the mobo.. I only get 800x600.. where can I find xorg.conf samples so I can get the full video output? [03:42] RussM_: thanks a lot! :D [03:43] theoneness: I have tv-out working with an old GeForce4 MX 420 for mythtv under ubuntu 7.10. You're welcome to my xorg.conf [03:43] voxel_, yeah you can do that :) only downside is your app launcher menus will be cluttered with both the kde and gnome apps [03:43] hello I am new to ubantu === buckethea is now known as buckethed [03:43] hey ive got a question about something that was changed from hardy -> intrepid, can anyone help? [03:44] Barridus, ewww yeah I forgot about that.... I remember that from the last time I tried KDE [03:44] how can i suspend the system from the command line? [03:45] !hi | honeybee0615 [03:45] honeybee0615: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu! [03:45] hey ive got a question about something that was changed from hardy -> intrepid, can anyone help [03:45] does anyone know about verizon dare music from ubantu? [03:45] shyam: you mean a terminal running in a desktop session, or pure CLI? [03:45] !ask | TheMechanic [03:45] TheMechanic: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line, so others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) [03:46] voxel_, the reason i suggested to stick with gnome/gtk initially when you install, is that if you pick kde as the default, it will load qt toolkit and not gtk. so if you're like "yuck" right away, and want to go back, some of the gnome apps won't work and you'll be left with unfamiliar ones === N4 is now known as NanMalm [03:46] crdlb: X or CLI.. now am using xmonad.. [03:46] crdlb: without gnome.. [03:46] i was wondering if anyone knew how to change the usplash in intrepid, im only familiar with the hardy way. [03:46] crdlb: i do have the gnome apps.. but not the panels and all its pure xmonad here.. and just practising to be the _wise_ computer user;-) [03:47] TheMechanic, is startup-manager available in your intrepid repos? [03:47] i can not type === max is now known as Guest12177 [03:47] TheMechanic: http://onlyubuntu.blogspot.com/2008/11/how-to-fix-usplash-in-ubuntu-810.html [03:47] takes constant keypress 2 print [03:47] shyam: for example pm-suspend [03:47] help [03:48] Barridus: yes, but when i installed it on linux mint 6 (intrepid-based) it didnt work and its not working in the terminal now that im running intrepid [03:48] i have formatted my sd card to FAT 16, then used armaok to transfer the music to moble device, placed the micro sd card in my verizon dar phone, and it showed the songs, when I touched one to play, it went to the player for a split second, then said that it was intitiating and to please try again, === alberto is now known as Guest76068 [03:48] shyam: gnome-power-manager handles that (by talking to HAL) in gnome, for which there's 'gnome-power-cmd suspend'. Ideally, you want something similar [03:48] scren flashes when i press [03:48] samitheberber: cool! may be i should have searched over the woman options.. anyway cool thanks.. [03:49] honeybee0615: you might have the phone format the card then just put the music on it from the computer [03:49] help [03:49] woman->without man another man version in emacs.. [03:49] The following packages have unmet dependencies: [03:49] libapache2-mod-php5: Depends: php5-common (= 5.2.6-2ubuntu4.1) but 5.2.6-2ubuntu4.2 is to be installed [03:49] E: Broken packages [03:49] shyam: no problem :) (I'm also a xmonad user) [03:49] can anyone help me? [03:49] I tried that, [03:49] crdlb: wow that too is useful.. thanks buddy. [03:50] but the phone runs off of windows media player usually, it wont recogize my phone, it sees the connection when I have the usb connected, but verizon isnt a choice [03:50] honeybee0615: does the phone expect a certain bit rate? if so you'll need to convert them .. say from 192 to 128 or something. [03:50] shyam: the advantage of that approach is that you don't have to be root to do it [03:50] what is that? [03:50] and how do i find out? [03:50] !atheros [03:50] Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs [03:51] Hello, I am trying to stop my eSATA disk from going to sleep all the time. If I play a song that lasts more than 5 minutes, the disk has to spin up from standby each time. In 3 days it accumulated over 600 spinups, which is roughly 1/100 of the TOTAL spin-ups it's rated for! I thought they fixed this bug in 8.10????? [03:52] ah was just about to talk about my atheros.. its ath5k the module.. it some times detects the wireless and sometimes not(untill my neighbours buy computer i am a strong proponent of free wifi campaign so the network setup is open and encryption off)..May be its the problem of tht damnn wireless router.. did anyone had any similar problem? [03:52] Hi, how can I have a package (tor) reinstall its default /etc/tor config files? [03:53] nvidia-settings worked like a charm, thanks fellas [03:53] honeybee0615: if they are mp3's then they are encoded with a certain bit rate. Your phone might not like bit rates over a certain amount so you have to change it by re encoding the songs.. read your manual on the phone to see if they state any requirements on the music. [03:53] X-722: what setting did you choose? [03:54] shyam: what chipset is it? my old AR5212 works perfectly, but the new AR242x is a tiny bit unreliable here [03:54] allquixotic: that's an issue with your external drive's power management, not an ubuntu bug [03:54] so once I find out about the bit rate on the phone, how do I find the bit rate of the songs? are all mp3 the same bit rate? and if so is there a terminal command I have to do for this ? or some sort of codec? [03:54] Anybody on the reinstallation issue? [03:54] crdlb: ar242x with linux libre kernel having ath5k module.. same thing.. not reliable..so bought some long ethernet cable(lan cable) [03:54] Scunizi: Just enabled xinerama and enabled the scondary display [03:55] grrr i finally got this installed and now i can't remember what i was gonna ask lol [03:55] honeybee0615: you can right mouse click on a song and check the properties.. there is a cli converter (several) that will re encode.. lame, mencoder and others. [03:55] crdlb: my wifi router is brand new and i don't have any other machine to test the connection too... [03:56] so it is a seperate program I need to install? [03:56] X-722: cool.. xinerama works nice.. for me twinview is useless unless you have two identical monitors with thin framing so you can stick them together and make them appear as one. [03:56] i'm reading a doc that says to add http://ppa.launchpad.net/brcha/ubuntu to sources.list... where do i get the gpg file to do a apt-key add ? [03:56] tritium: Are you sure? I remember the 8.04 development cycle having major problems with an Ubuntu-triggered bug that caused disk heads to park extremely early because of aggressive power management being set with hdparm. But of course, when I try to use hdparm at all on this drive, I get an input/output error. [03:56] So which setting enables dragging of a window from one monitor to another? Both? [03:56] tritium: And furthermore, using any other operating system (CentOS 5.2, Fedora 10, Windows Vista) does not produce this issue. [03:56] tritium: Not very hardware-ish to me. [03:56] Or does ubuntu just see them as totally separate workspaces? [03:57] Scunizi: how is the experience any different? all apps should behave identically since they're seeing the same xinerama info [03:57] I have a question regarding Shebang notation in script files [03:57] X-722: I don't think you can. With Xinerama they are different workspaces but you are able to move a window/program from one to the other. nice because if you "full screen" a program it will stay on one monitor and not stretch across both. [03:57] Can it handle multiple switches to the executable? [03:58] For example #!/usr/bin/foo -t -d -o -s [03:58] Scunizi: Thank you [03:58] crdlb: you mean the difference between twinview and xinerama? [03:58] Will this work fine? [03:58] X-722: np [03:58] brb [03:58] allquixotic: http://mjg59.livejournal.com/77672.html [03:59] Hello, I was wondering how I can retrieve files off of my windows partition and put them in Ubuntu [03:59] Scunizi: ah, that's just nvidia being broken :) as long as it sets the xinerama info (ie telling apps where the physical monitors are), fullscreen and such should work [03:59] i just want to move my music and WoW files [04:00] I'm running 64-bit Ubuntu on a new Dell laptop, and I'm having issues with the hard drive throughput dropping drastically on occasion, and causing the system to hang. [04:00] im just gonna copy and paste my question [04:00] crdlb: yes with xinerama.. twinnview I think it sets it up as one large space thus "full screen" means "across both monitors".. I think you just said that but wanted to reitterate it differntly [04:00] Hello, I was wondering how I can retrieve files off of my windows partition and put them in Ubuntu [04:01] Yes [04:01] sudo apt-get install ntfs-3g [04:01] Scunizi: no, my point is that that's not supposed to happen [04:01] but, in ubuntu, it should have the options under 'Places' to mount it [04:01] crdlb: with either twinnview or xinerama? [04:02] EvilAIM: that should be installed by default [04:02] RussM_, so apache in ubuntu uses ipv6 only by default? [04:02] tritium: I know, I was just making sure if he's running an older version where it wasn't. [04:02] Scunizi: both twinview and xinerama should be using the xinerama protocol to tell apps about the physical monitors [04:02] tritium: can't hurt to check [04:03] skate2, no, generally it sets up both ipv4 and ipv6 [04:04] Scunizi: the only time I know of when twinview won't is if you enable the second monitor after starting X (XRandR 1.2 doesn't have that flaw, but nvidia still hasn't implemented it) [04:04] had a perfect suspend experiment.. thank you guys.. will come later having some food.. or i'll hav to go hybernation.. [04:04] crdlb: have some dbus error, i can't go for /usr/bin/gnome-power-cmd.sh [04:04] crdlb: ah.. k.. broken or not I would like to see three modes available.. twinnview (the way it works now), xinerama (two independant screens with drag across capability) and for lack of a better term, "Mirror" so what's on one is also on the other. [04:04] crdlb: anyway thanks.. bye.. [04:05] resolution? anyone? [04:05] how do themes work? I downloaded a theme, its a folder with a bunch of .bmp and .cur etc... [04:06] anyone know if it's possible to have multiple instances of wget running, each using it's own proxy server/ [04:06] Scunizi: imho, apps should just support displaying things across both monitors (optionally) [04:06] Brasero crashes on me every time I choose audio project, all other projects seem to work ok. :( [04:06] Are all sound cards compatible with Ubuntu? [04:07] Buttons6: try k3b? [04:07] what is k3b? [04:07] a burning app [04:07] Buttons6: a cd burning app [04:07] & dvd [04:08] brasero was working so I don't know what happend [04:08] just burned an audio cd a few mins ago [04:08] Buttons6: I would uninstall it, then reinstall it. I had the same problem. [04:08] i did that, didn't work [04:09] Buttons6: How many times has it crashed onyou? [04:09] meh, 30 times [04:09] all in the last 5 mins [04:09] crabgrass: apparently, wget uses the http_proxy environment variable to determine the proxy server, so yes, I guess. Just put a different one in each process's environment [04:09] let me try a complete uninstal through synaptic [04:09] Buttons6:You reinstalled? [04:09] postfix send isnt working, can anyone help me debug? [04:10] why doesn't 'dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg' work on my 8.10 desktop installation? Why won't it recognize my hardware and configure xorg.conf accordingly? [04:10] crdlb: that involves `export` in bash, right? [04:10] hello [04:10] crdlb: and i'm not too sure what you mean by environment [04:10] yes, I just reinstall brasero again, and it still crashes [04:10] I'm having trouble getting my wireless to work on 8.10 [04:10] bonez46: it might not be receiving any info from your video card or monitor or both [04:10] would anyone be willing to help me?

If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) [04:11] i'll probably have to switch [04:11] crabgrass: yes, or just specify it in front of the wget command [04:11] oh okay, sorry [04:11] noob: Can't help if you don't explain your question. :) [04:11] Buttons6, i have the same issue with audio cds [04:11] well I tried using ndiswrapper following multiple guides online, but it still doesn't seem to work [04:11] even k3b doesnt burn the audio cds properly [04:11] i installed a lot of libs so I could compile some source, would those new libs be causing the problem? [04:11] so I'm pretty much trying to troubleshoot [04:12] troubleshoot what? [04:12] so my question: How would you start troubleshooting the wireless LAN connection not working? [04:12] crdlb: so... `export http_proxy http://path.to.server/:8080 && wget www.foo.com/bar.jpg` ? [04:12] why doesn't 8.10 recognize my hardware correctly/ [04:12] crabgrass: apparently you can also do it like this: wget -e "http_proxy = http://ip:port" "http://content" [04:12] crdlb: hmm, lemmie look into it [04:12] bonez, has any ubuntu distro recognized your wireless card? [04:12] hello everyone [04:13] Buttons6, intrepid or jaunty for you? i need to know whether or not to file a bug for the audio thing as well [04:13] bonez46: because your hardware may not be talking back to the quiries from the software.. I'll send you a link from ubottu that might help. [04:13] !resolution | bonez46 [04:13] bonez46: The X Window System is the part of your system that's responsible for graphical output. To restart your X, type « sudo /etc/init.d/?dm restart » in a console - To fix screen resolution or other X problems: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Config/Resolution [04:13] i'm on 8.10, intrepid [04:13] could anyone please tell me the package name for the program "netsh" ?? [04:13] PM me if you like [04:13] crabgrass: 'http_proxy=http://path.to.server:8080 wget www.foo.com/bar.jpg' would be the environment way [04:13] perillux, type "netsh" in the terminal. it will tell u what pkg to install [04:13] xtknight: thanks [04:13] my internet is 5 megs but the ubuntu updates dont download nearly that fast. what gives? [04:14] how would i connect to a buddies host at another location to admin the router? [04:14] noob: I would start by going to system > Admin > Hardware Drivers, and make sure the wireless card is green, if not check the box and restart your computer [04:14] xtknight: didn't give a package name [04:14] xtknight: I am on a very old laptop, it would take me over 10min to open up synaptic and search for it... [04:14] zaccour: download speed depends on a lot of things.. not just what your end of the pipe is capable of [04:14] perillux, isnt that a windows program [04:14] perillux: netsh appears to be a windows tool [04:14] is N270 Atom CPU is better than 1.3ghz? [04:14] when will the new 2.6.29 kernel be included in the updates? [04:15] I'm on a dell 600m, and others have said that the wireless drivers worked with ndiswrapper, but for some reason, after I followed the guide it didn't show up, how should I fix this? [04:15] xtknight: srdlb: I see... thanks [04:15] Scunizi, oh you mean like server distributing due to lots of users? [04:15] chocken: likely in ubuntu 9.04 [04:15] chocken: it won't be [04:15] owen1: Try #ubuntu-offtopic [04:15] too many types of themes, what kind of theme edits icons and the menus and stuff? I dunno where to start, to customize my desktop n windows [04:15] Hey, is there any way I can split a folder without being able to access it? I have a folder with 68k files and it freezes nautilus up [04:16] crdlb you mean it won't be available via update, but will be included in 9.04? [04:16] noob: Did you try going into the hardware drivers, make sure the proprietary drivers are enabled. I would try this before attempting ndiswrapper. [04:16] zaccour: that and/or how many hops to the target, the targets capacity, maybe the target shapes the download speed to manage bandwidth etc.. It's only as fast as the slowest link in the chain between you and the other end. [04:16] chocken: actually, 9.04 will have 2.6.28 with fixes cherrypicked from 2.6.29 [04:16] hello guys [04:16] > ive got xubuntu installed on my lappy [04:16] and i plug in a wifi usbs tick [04:16] it doesnt work [04:16] not recognized at all [04:16] moose86: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. [04:16] but i plug it into my desktop with ubuntu and it works fine [04:16] oh ok [04:17] Scunizi, do distro downloads usually allow maximun capacity? [04:17] crdlb ok, that's what I needed to know [04:17] zaccour: just like your computer is only as fast as the slowest part [04:17] sorry [04:17] zaccour: not always. I've found that using a torrent for a distro is faster.' [04:17] does anyone know why the Hardware Driver window would stay at 0% without responding? [04:18] !root [04:18] Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth... there is no root password. Then you will see that it is 'sudo' that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo [04:18] oh ok === WhiteOnion is now known as Ahmuck-Sr [04:18] Scunizi, are torrents usually faster than http/ftp? [04:19] hey guys, if I have 1 partition with intrepid, and 1 partition with feisty (feisty was installed later). How can I make it so intrepid grub recognizes feisty partitions automatically? (I tried update-grub but it did not work) [04:19] blah well thanks anyways peoples [04:19] zaccour: depends on how many seeders there are. I've downloaded ubuntu desktop via a torrent in 10 minutes or less and much longer via http/ftp [04:19] oh ok thanks [04:19] crdlb: that's working out great, thanks [04:20] blah to you, impatient noob. :p. [04:20] Would I horribly break things like lib dependencies if I installed kernel 2.6.29 on 8.10? [04:21] Has anyone tryed Ubuntu Studio for a music studio? I want to go Linux all the way. Even with music recording. [04:21] chocken: try it.. you can always boot into the older kernel if it doesn't work [04:21] chocken: kernel and userspace are pretty well separated, so it should be reasonably safe (other than proprietary kernel modules) [04:21] Scunizi true [04:22] crdlb and true .. thanks [04:22] choken: just make sure you actually get the drivers you need compiled and included in the initrd [04:22] Scunizi: thanks. I guess there's no easy way.. it's a hack job.. right? Is there anything that will probe and discover the values I need to work into my xorg.conf? [04:22] mrsteveman1 yes, thanks for the reminder [04:22] Droopsta915: I second this question. [04:22] bonez46: what kind of video card do you have/ [04:22] ? [04:22] too many types of themes, what kind of theme edits icons and the menus and stuff? I dunno where to start, to customize my desktop n windows [04:23] Bridger987: Do you use windows for music? [04:23] Scunizi: it's on the mobo.. via rhine.. with chrome 9 .. [04:23] ok, well I'm about to do it. If it screws itself I'll be back. Otherwise it's all good :-) [04:23] bonez46: hang on a sec. [04:23] 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: VIA Technologies, Inc. K8M890CE/K8N890CE [Chr [04:23] ome 9] (rev 11) [04:23] that's my video.. from lspci [04:23] Question for you Audiophiles out there: I have an assortment of MP3's and FLAC's that all sound just great on my PC, but when I normalize them and put them on a audio cd, the MP3's always end up softer and flat? Any suggestions? [04:23] Droopsta915: Sort of. I'm always messing around with editing audio and such. Nothing serious. ^_^ [04:23] bluenzo: what do you want to do, use a theme that is preinstalled, or find a new theme? [04:24] how would i connect to a buddies host at another location to admin the router? [04:24] Bridger987: I'm installing Ubuntu Studio, in vbox at the momoent, hope it's what I think it is. [04:24] Droopsta915, either lol [04:25] Scunizi: I appreciate your help! [04:25] Droopsta915: You'll have to tell me about it. I suppose I could give it a shot in virtualbox as well, but I'll have to download it. [04:27] anyone know how to install a USB WIFI stick if nto automatically recognised? [04:28] anyone know how to install a USB WIFI stick if nto automatically recognised? [04:28] bluenzo: ok, right click the desktop, click change desktop background, when the window opens, choose theme tab and wahlah all the preinstalled themes are at your control. If you want more themes,icons,splashscreens,boot screens, go to www.gnome-look.org [04:29] bonez46: there are threads out there that talk about chrome 9 being difficult if not impossible.. there are two drivers listed in synaptic. if only one is loaded you might try the other. check System>Admin>hardware drivers to see if you need to "enable" a driver there. there is a driver for chrome 9 in .rpm format. you might have to google for one in .deb format. sorry beyond that I'm stumped.. [04:30] difficult, yes, but I HAD this working well.. it's just about crafting my xorg.conf .. but I didn't make a back up of the file.. so it's left me with hideous 800x600 resolution [04:30] Scunizi: thanks for the pointers.. [04:30] moose: who makes the wifi stick? [04:30] Bridger987:My install is at 97%, i'll let you know how it looks when complete. You should also tr the Ubuntu Studio webssite. They got screenshots of the program. I guess it's Ubuntu with a bunch of music software and editors preinstalled. [04:31] bonez46: typing xrandr in terminal will give you a list of "supported" resolutions.. randr controls video for the most part and is very flexable.. you can use it to list a new resolution and activate it. [04:31] netgear WG111v@ ultratek [04:31] Droopsta915: Not a bad idea. I'll have to take a look. ^_^ [04:31] ! screensaver [04:31] Sorry, I don't know anything about screensaver [04:31] Question, I think the command is 'su' but how do you do it so that you stay as a higher up user? [04:31] supported, eh? I load up the live cd and it loads up in 1280x1024.. yet, that's not showing with xrandr.. as a supported resolution. [04:31] I forget the command... [04:32] got a good question thats been bothering me for weeks now [04:32] bonez46: then with the live cd check xorg and see what's listed for the driver. [04:32] instead of having to do sudo all the time, you can just do this command, type the pass in and it leaves you in su or something [04:32] ah.. ok.. [04:32] EvilAIM: sudo -i [04:32] tx [04:32] anytime I launch pidgin, skype, or a bit torrent client (vuze), my internet connection dies [04:33] EvilAIM: that defeats half of the security you get by running linux. [04:33] can anyone help, when I click on a window it won't take focus or raise, this is really driving me nuts [04:33] i can run empathy without issues [04:33] How well do Radeon HD 4670s work in 8.10? [04:34] they make your harddrive melt into an unrecognizable mass :).. (don't take this seriously) [04:34] EvilAIM, sudo -i ? [04:34] I haven't used an ATI card in Ubuntu since about 7.10, and I am not sure how/if things have changed much [04:34] yea, that was the one [04:34] thanks. [04:34] it's not for me man:) [04:35] i don't use it, I had a user ask about it and I just forgot the syntax... shows how much I use it;) [04:35] EvilAIM, Sorry, guess my screen had stopped scrolling for a bit there, old news apparently [04:36] it's all gravy sir [04:36] so any suggestions? [04:37] Hi, I can see my wireless card using iwconfig(it shows up as wlan0), but I don't seem to see an icon on the top right showing me available wireless networks...what do I do to fix this? [04:37] Is there a way to customize a screenzaver? Winblows used to have the Marquee screensaver that you could use your own custom text, colors, etc... I'd love to have that here and have my computer brag about running linux. [04:38] focus [04:38] sorry wrong window [04:39] what is the easiest way to find out which network card drivers are loaded? [04:39] pulgoki: lsmod [04:39] i know lsmod will list which modules but its not very explanatory [04:39] i use freebsd [04:39] :P [04:39] so this is strange to me [04:40] Is there a general open source room? I've got a question about Open Source Software. [04:40] hey, im trying to mount my main hard drive through ubuntu but it isn't detecting my hard drive [04:40] coastermaster: #ubuntu-offtopic? [04:40] watari: is your disk listed on your pc's bios? [04:41] how do i check? [04:41] pulgoki:Type lshw in a terminal [04:41] is there a room for window manager issues? [04:41] checking now [04:41] jj_galvez: ##windows [04:41] coastermaster: there is #gnu [04:41] watari: try fdisk -l [04:42] pulgoki, try lshw, look for ethernet? [04:42] Scunizi: so thats for window managers not MS Windows, thanks [04:42] thanks [04:42] i think thats the ticket [04:42] jj_galvez: sorry.. misunderstood.. not window managers.. windows. :) [04:42] join #ubuntu-cn [04:42] this is the output for fdisk - l [04:42] Anytime I launch pidgin, skype, or vuze; my internet connection is disabled. I can run xchat, empathy, etc just fine. Any suggestions as to what is going on? [04:42] Guys what if i dont see an administration menu? [04:42] Usage: fdisk [-b SSZ] [-u] DISK Change partition table [04:42] fdisk -l [-b SSZ] [-u] DISK List partition table(s) [04:42] fdisk -s PARTITION Give partition size(s) in blocks [04:42] fdisk -v Give fdisk version [04:42] Here DISK is something like /dev/hdb or /dev/sda [04:42] watari: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. [04:42] and PARTITION is something like /dev/hda7 [04:43] pulgoki: maybe ifconfig will tell you something you want? [04:43] Scunizi: bummer, there is something wrong with the way my windows is acting and I can't seem to figure it out [04:43] 1 [04:43] 2 [04:43] 3 [04:43] 4 [04:43] 5 [04:43] watari: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. [04:43] 6 [04:43] guys .. whats a good live cd where i can install scalpel .. i can't boot ubuntu because it takes forever [04:43] watari: without space after the - [04:44] is it possible for the wireless driver to be installed, but the wireless icon not show up on the top right in ubuntu? [04:44] Guys what if i dont see an administration menu? [04:44] Guys what if i dont see an administration menu? [04:44] TTTrouble: the wireless icon is network-manager-gnome applet [04:44] so yes [04:44] n2diy: nah.. it doesnt list the driver that it is using [04:45] lsmod is good but the output isnt clear [04:45] you can always change the root password by typing - sudo passwd root [04:46] pulgoki, did lshw do it? I can see in mine that I have the e1000 driver loaded. [04:46] i had to use modinfo to find for sure [04:46] seight, or you could just not use root [04:46] RussM_: yea [04:46] !root [04:46] Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth... there is no root password. Then you will see that it is 'sudo' that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo [04:46] hmmm, I just checked, it the network-manager-gnome is installed, and my wireless shows up in iwconfig, and ndiswrapper -l, but for some reason I cannot connect, anybody got any ideas? [04:46] pulgoki: maybe lsmod has switches that would help you, but I'm no familiar with them, the man page might help you. [04:46] RussM_: it was321 allot of output [04:46] t:P [04:46] yeah, but you are using root by using sudo [04:46] !noroot | seight [04:46] seight: We don't support a root password so don't suggest one unless you are going to be here 24/7 to help someone who has problems as a result of having one, many thanks ;-) [04:47] the system supports using root [04:47] RussM_: when i typed lshw it seemed to probe everything [04:47] TTTrouble: Did you try going into the hardware drivers and make sure the wireless proprietary driver is enabled? [04:47] * g4lt-lappy hardly ever uses root now, with solaris's pfexec and ubuntu's sudo [04:47] I don't even think I have root enabled.. [04:47] there's no point... [04:47] pulgoki, Yeah, that it does. [04:48] seight, yes, but WE as an IRC channel don't [04:48] RussM_: made my pc act strange for a minute [04:48] :p [04:48] seight: The system does. The official stance is not to use it, etc. This channel assumes you aren't using it, etc. [04:48] ok [04:48] does gnome have a room? [04:49] pulgoki, this works for me on 2 of my PCs: lshw | grep "ip=" [04:49] "/list" command [04:49] jj_galvez, not on this server. gnome has their own IRCnetwork [04:49] Is there any partitioning tool that will allow me to easily partition my SD card? I want to make it half fat32, half ext2 [04:49] xchat-gnome [04:49] g4lt-lappy: thanks I'll look for it [04:49] I keep getting an error on login. My ~/.dmrc file is locked: I don't have permission to write to it. Help? [04:50] RussM_: I am used to seeing the correct output with dmesg or even just ifconfig [04:50] hakunin: partimage [04:50] Scunizi: thank you! [04:50] hakunin, I'm going to suggest you not do that on this. SD cards really were never designed to have anything other than fat32 filesystems on them [04:50] jj_galvez:#xchat-gnome [04:50] hakunin: sorry not partimage.. gparted [04:50] RussM_: this will take some getting used to. Freebsd runs poorly on my laptop so i chose linux [04:50] Scunizi: ok, will look for it [04:51] Droopsta915: that's for the xchat-gnome irc client, not for gnome itself [04:51] wanah ext3 should work fine [04:51] guys .. whats a good live cd where i can install scalpel .. i can't boot ubuntu because it takes forever [04:51] g4lt-lappy: if it runs from ssd, i'm sure non-journaled ext2 should work fine, not much different from fat32 in terms of load, also i need permission support : ) [04:51] yo what up folks im on sabayon 4 and im im luvin this shyt u feel me knockin let me up in that chat i mean channel make me an admin or atleast co admin im tryin to boot some peeps yall feel me [04:52] jj_galvez:#gnome [04:52] :P [04:52] whats poppin in gnome droops [04:52] Droopsta915: thanks found it [04:52] 1337 users, woooot.

[05:10] yinlong: I do not, there is a wiki how to I'm sure, let me find it for you [05:10] o0chris0o:i mean how to connect to the internet? [05:11] 0ochris0o:oh,thanks [05:12] pulgoki, You still here? === tiagofalcao is now known as tiagofalcao[AWAY [05:12] !install | yinlong Not sure what install you would want to use, these are all the methods [05:12] yinlong Not sure what install you would want to use, these are all the methods: Ubuntu can be installed in lots of ways. Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation for documentation. Problems during install? See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CommonProblemsInstall - Don't want to use a CD? Try http://tinyurl.com/3exghs - see also !automate [05:12] oops :( [05:12] what does the '&' sign mean when typing 'firefox &'? [05:13] can anyone help me with a focus issue? when I start my compuer I programs do not switch their focus or raise when I click on them [05:13] 0ochris0o:let me see it clearly [05:13] yinlong: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation [05:14] we downloaded dia (to make a flowchart) my husband is trying to find it and the manual.pdf in Applications .. any idea where to look? [05:14] Anyone knows how to configure a headphone usb 2.0? [05:15] dsdeiz, start the command (firefox) without waiting for it to finish. [05:15] o0chris0o:let me see [05:15] yinlong: I posted the link :) [05:15] need help installing 64bit intrepid on a tyan mobo [05:15] thanks [05:16] dsdeiz, that makes firefox a background process, and gives you back the command prompt immediately [05:16] installation (no quiet splash) after msg PCI: Using configuration type 1 for base access [05:17] installation (no quiet splash) hangs after msg PCI: Using configuration type 1 for base access [05:17] but then again it still outputs error messages on the terminal where you ran it right? :S [05:17] how to copy mp3 from my computer to the iphone? [05:17] do i use rhythmbox? [05:17] dsdeiz, Generally, yes. There are ways to change that, like to put errors into a file, if you want. [05:18] is it like this firefox & >> error_firefox.txt [05:18] ? [05:18] dsdeiz, firefox 2>error_firefox.txt & [05:18] Hi! it has been some time since I last setup ubuntu. is there a gui to setup samba to work with file and printer sharing with windows now? [05:18] yeay! thanks :-) [05:19] would anyone have any idea why FCE Ultra is able to get sound in a TTY, and yet ZSNES and DOSBox cannot? (It may be worth noting that to make these run in the TTY, one is forced to run them as root) [05:20] gvsa123, yes [05:21] wolter: like i don't have to copy paste the classic configuration file in the forums anymore? i wonder what packages i have to install? [05:21] gvsa123, you can either download the non-official webadmin html multi-pupose configuration client, or use System > Administration > Samba [05:21] gvsa123, just samba i think [05:22] what is samba4 ? [05:23] wolter: i installed samba from synaptic and the entry in sys>admin>samba isn't there... is samba4 stable? i saw it when i ran the search for samba and it say that it's experimental [05:23] gvsa123, yeah, i just googled it. [05:24] would anyone have any idea why FCE Ultra is able to get sound in a TTY, and yet ZSNES and DOSBox cannot? (It may be worth noting that to make these run in the TTY, one is forced to run them as root) [05:24] gvsa123, then try downloading samba-client or samba-tools [05:24] Surlent777: hardy? [05:24] how do i turn off focus follows curser and smooth scrolling, there really starting to aggervate me [05:24] wolter: i'll check it out [05:24] gvsa123, ah dont! [05:24] iceroot: Intrepid [05:24] gvsa123, got it... check "add remove" for samba [05:25] wolter: huh? [05:25] gvsa123, the add/remove applications app [05:25] Surlent777: hm ok, there was a bug in hardy, so zsnes has no sound. there you have to use an oss or alsa wrapper dont know exactly anymore [05:26] wolter: i saw the entry... [05:26] iceroot: Intrepid's zsnes doesn't work AT ALL; I'm using the hardy version. Incidentally, I never had that sound error, and I've also fixed my PulseAudio installation...and this only doesn't have sound in a TTY; it works perfectly in X [05:26] gvsa123, download and install it [05:27] wolter: dlding [05:27] there is a special version of zsnes available on the forums that fixes the hardy issues [05:27] the zsnes forums, i mean :) [05:27] wolter: i wonder if there are plans to have ubuntu with samba by default and ready to connect to MSHOME... [05:27] does anyone know how to make the video buffer bigger? [05:28] droazen: I have Intrepid, and I have the old hardy version. Again, it works fine in X; I just get no sound in a TTY [05:28] gvsa123, ah i don't know, but that app lets you do that in seconds [05:29] surlent777: ah i see :) well it wouldn't hurt to try this version -- it fixed all of my audio issues with zsnes [05:30] this is what im talking about, i went to play atanks, moved the curser, and when i went to quit, the fucos was on the window, and IT closed, how do i turn that OFF [05:30] wolter: and it has a good help file too!!! :) [05:30] gvsa123, sure thing buddy [05:31] droazen: It's also not just ZSNES...DOSBox also has no sound in a TTY. FCE Ultra works, however, and so does mocp and yauap. The readout seems to indicate with both ZSNES and DB ALSA is being used, and apparently loaded correctly. FCEU gives no indication of what it uses; neither do yaupe or mocp [05:31] that with* [05:32] (yaupe and mocp are console-based music players) [05:33] how do i turn off smooth scrolling and focus follows mouse?!?! [05:33] The File Hierarch Standard (FHS) says that /dev stores "Essential devices". What are 'essential' devices, and what are in contrast 'unessential' devices? [05:33] gartral: it's in the control settings under the mouse stuff [05:34] hey my upper taskbar has gone to the right of the screen, i cant place it back.please help! [05:34] KDewhirst: no... its not... ive looked 100 times [05:34] abhishekiitd: Right click on it, and go to its properties...make sure that it's not being told to stay put [05:35] how do i mount iphone? [05:35] gartral: perhaps under the window manager settings? i use kde in linux and i'm in windows now, so i can't walk you throught it [05:35] gartral: let me see if i can google something for you [05:35] surlent777: found it! here are the "experimental" zsnes 1.51b binaries: http://board.zsnes.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=11513 [05:35] !iphone | garcia [05:35] garcia: For information on how to sync and add tracks to your iPod, see the guide at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IPodHowto - For the iPhone and the iPod Touch, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PortableDevices/iPhone - See !RockBox for information on liberating your iPod [05:35] surient777:i dont get properties upon right click! [05:36] abhishekiitd: that's bizzare. What DO you get? [05:36] gartral: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=156022 [05:37] droazen: thanks, I'll look at it, but it's also not just ZSNES...DOSBox also has no sound in a TTY. FCE Ultra works, however, and so does mocp and yauap. The readout seems to indicate with both ZSNES and DB ALSA is being used, and apparently loaded correctly. FCEU gives no indication of what it uses; neither do yaupe or mocp [05:37] surient777:i right clicked, to find a move option...i clicked on this and tried to move [05:38] that's an L in my name =P Also, I don't recall there BEING a move option on the panel... [05:38] in fact, there isn't at all, from what I can see [05:38] wolter: i am supposed to see the other computer through Go>Network on Nautilus right? the computer can see me through My Network Places in Windows though... [05:39] surlent777: yeah it may not help...sounds like you have a different problem than i had -- but worth a shot maybe [05:39] surient777:well tell me, where exact;ly do i have to right click, anywhere on that bar? [05:39] abhishekiitd: any blank spot should do [05:39] KDewhirst: yay! thats the main one taken care of, now to figure out smooth scrolling (i hate that i hit the scroll wheel and it caches the amount of "clicks" it made [05:39] surient777:well and if there is no blank spot? [05:39] Yes [05:40] abhishekiitd: There has to be somewhere o_O what did you do to the thing?! [05:40] wolter: hmmm... that's odd... it seems my wife's xp is having problems with their own network....... lol [05:41] why? [05:41] gartral: do you want it for a specific program? I think firefox will do it independantly. If this isn't under the mouse settings, I don't know how to help you [05:41] surient777: i removed my application, system, etc...and now i got a blank spot, right click properties, and it is done...but how do i get those menus back? [05:42] KDewhirst: no, its on accross all programs, and i want it gone [05:42] abhishekiitd: That can be gotten by going to "Add to panel" and choosing "Menu Bar" [05:43] abhishekiitd: then just drag it back to the upper left corner [05:44] anyone around that is familiar with setting up 5.1 optical audio ..? [05:44] gartral: that's a harder problem. I'm not familiar with gnome; maybe somone else can help you? I can't find anything on Google about turning it off. Sorry [05:45] wolter: because i know i configured that system already when i still had xp on this lappy, and we able to share file already. but now, it can see ubuntu, but i cannot see xp from ubuntu end... [05:45] KDewhirst: also, if i right click something, and release the right mouse button without selecting anything on the dialog box, it will do either the first or last things in the box, i dont know how many accidental new folders ive made doinf that [05:45] gvsa123, oh well, samba is not very good. i have a lot of problems with it. I use ftp now. [05:46] gvsa123, which isn't as stable either. not on my computer [05:46] surlent777: i think fceu uses esd, but not completely sure [05:46] also, all these problems seem indipendant of metacity/compiz GTK/Emerald [05:46] wolter: i think, ubuntu is acting like the "server" for both pc's... i mean i shared a folder from where we would be sharing files... kinda like that... [05:46] droazen: interesting [05:47] gartral: That's a very old convention for right click menus, I think from macos, and I don't know that you can turn it off. Let me look around some. [05:47] surient777: thanks a lot man, i was able to get it [05:47] KDewhirst: thanks alot [05:47] abhishekiitd: no problem [05:47] i have an extremely weird issue with ubuntu on my laptop where when i close my screen, and open it up, i notice that stuff has been copied and pasted all over my documents that are open [05:47] ce_cantik [05:47] droazen: I tried using esd for ZSNES, but no go [05:48] what is mode "+/-e" there? [05:48] surlent777: i had audio issues with the ubuntu-packaged fceu as well, so i switched to gfceux via a ppa [05:48] how do i put buttons in elightenment ? menus [05:48] surlent777: wait scratch that, you said you didn't have issues with fceu :) haha [05:48] droazen: yeah, heh. Linux is weird at times. === drh is now known as blarhg [05:49] I have ubuntu installed ; Now i cant get to my HP recovery partition , but i want windows back. [05:49] droazen: I tried to do a network game with FCEU, but the joiner always gets a blank screen/freezeup [05:49] no one around with optical audio experience? [05:50] surlent777: yeah i've had no success with netplay on fceu -- old versions of zsnes had beautiful netplay though [05:50] gartral: I don't even know what to call that, and i'm having a hard time finding anything about it. Most people don't realize it's there, but it is standard. My advice to you is to click once and let go more quickly. I know it's not what you want to hear, but if you can turn that off, you'll have do dig pretty deep to do it [05:50] droazen: I'm sick of networking being broken in my two favorite emulators (FCEU/ZSNES) =( [05:50] does anyone know how to make the buffer size bigger so I can watch video on firefox without it being all choppy? [05:50] n #drupal-support [05:51] hammerhead why not just pause the video and let it buffer for a while - then play it? [05:51] surlent777: i know, it sucks :/ supposedly the next version of zsnes will fix netplay, but it is taking forever to see the light of day [05:51] droazen: always =( [05:51] KDewhirst: hmm... i do hope its gone from jaunty [05:51] blarhg: because the buffer size is not big enough [05:51] hm [05:52] blarhg: if i stop it let it buffer it play's ok til buffer runs out [05:52] I've got audio via optical out.. but dvds in DTS should play in 5.1 on my home theater but they're not =\ [05:52] blarhg: I just want to manke the buffer bigger [05:52] blarhg: * make [05:54] I have ubuntu installed ; Now i cant get to my HP recovery partition , but i want windows back. help me .. help me.. plz help me [05:55] how come wvdial began re-pairing my phone every time I dialup? it generates a random 4 digit code and doesnt tell me what it is [05:56] every time my phone crashes (often) I have to now manually unpair it and re-pair it with a new code [05:56] re: in system|admin|users+groups|privaliges - the "use audio devices" for me is shaded out - not able to change here - how to fix? [05:56] wolter: that's odd, i the xp machine is now visible under the MSHOME workgroup, but when i double click it, it says "unable to mount location - cannot retrieve share list from server" any ideas? [05:57] josh-l, what do you have it dial? [05:57] joshp, ^^^^^^^^^ [05:58] bluetooth to internet [05:58] its a new change where it now tries to pair my phone every time [05:58] and it doesnt tell me the code! what good is that? [05:59] gvsa123, i don't know. as I said, I have many problems with samba myself. I would recommend you using a bonjour application.. maybe install pidgin on both and transfer files through bonjour itself, or download lanshark [05:59] I have a question about rsync. So right now I have 2 log files on my laptop and desktop. The one on my laptop is older and has a lot of log info from a while back that I want to keep, it is also the larger of the two. The one on my desktop is smaller and has newer log information. The desktop log file starts where the laptop log file stopped. When I sync, could rsync possibly write over the laptops older log info with the newer ( [05:59] gvsa123, anyway, I have to sleep now. Bye [05:59] but smaller) log file thatis on the desktop? I would prefferably like the files to be synced with the desktops newer logs prepended to the end of the laptops older logs (since the desktops logs pick up where the laptop leaves off). [05:59] wolter: i see ... thanks anyway... [06:01] is there any way to reduce the size of the desktop icons without having to manually resize stretch them? [06:03] so before this recent bluetooth change, when my phone would crash, it would reboot and the internet would pick back up [06:03] now it asks to pair my phone using an unknown random 4 digit code [06:04] Anyone knows how to configure a headphone? [06:05] hi guys, I'm having some trouble with repositories. I'm in Australia and just installed ubuntu server 8.04 LTS [06:05] I have a transfer speed issue between my ubuntu box and my win xp machine i can transfer files fine via samaba from ubuntu TO winxp but when transfering files FROM xp to unbuntu via ftp its going super slow..... any ideas? [06:05] is there any way to roll back bluetooth functions so my stuff works again? [06:06] Does anyone known how the sources list works? I can't seem to find an explanation in the official documentation. [06:06] Solaris444: what's the problem? [06:06] anyone familiar with "unable to mount location - cannot retrieve share list from server" problem with samba? i am able to see ubuntu from the windows end. i can see the windows machine in ubuntu through the MSHOME workgroup, but cannot access the files in it... [06:07] KDewhirst: The AU ubuntu mirror is going to take 2 days to download only 400 or so MB of packages so I wanted to replace the repositories with a mirror closer to me and much faster. [06:07] but I don't know what form each entry in the sources.list file should take. [06:08] anybody here have much experence with useing jack/jack rack/patchage in order to route your default sound through various enhancments in jack rack? i got this oddity where everytime banshee changes tracks it grabs a new audio device number (jacksink9 jacksink4 etc) and it disconnects my patches into jackrack where i have to manually reconnect them, is it possible to specify in jack plumbing a stable connection reguardless of the number following jacksink? [06:08] http://mirror.internode.on.net/pub/ubuntu/ubuntu/ [06:08] There is a link to the mirror i want to add but I have no idea what urls or entries to put in sources.list [06:08] anyone got a ati xpress 1250? [06:09] Iowahc: ATI express 1250 isn't supported by their current driver if I remember correctly. [06:09] ohhh...make a pruchaseing mistake Iowahc ? [06:09] Solaris444: if you want to change your mirror, i would recommend doing it from here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories/Ubuntu#Download%20Server [06:09] how can I make a command repeat endlessly? [06:09] KDewhirst: I don't have a GUI installed. [06:10] Solaris444: arg, i knew that was coming [06:10] Solaris444: youre rights. just stopped supporting it :( and old driver isnt working with new x server [06:10] Solaris444: any workarounds maybe? [06:10] wow, the version of TOR in the repos is so old the network considers it "totally obsolete" [06:10] Solaris444: i'm sitting here in windows now, let me see if i can figure it out from looking at the contents of my linux drive [06:10] IIowahc: if you are feeling brave you could use the open source 3d radeon driver. [06:10] thanks kdewhirst. [06:10] I will actually be installing a gui. [06:11] but ummm, that's the 400MB download i mentioned. === Daemon is now known as Xavierg2003 [06:11] Solaris444: haha, nice [06:11] IIowahc: i know how to install it [06:11] HammerHead66: radeon3D ? is it in the repos? [06:12] gvsa [06:12] Solaris444, xrandr? or xinerama? [06:12] Hello everyone [06:12] IIowahc: hit me up on pm ok [06:12] I need help installing a windows driver to windows through Kubuntu [06:12] is there a channel that could better help with this newly introduced bluetooth bug? [06:12] docidu: what about xrandr and xinerama? [06:13] Xavierg2003: Windows handles its own driver installations. [06:13] Are you talking about a virtual machine? [06:13] sorry, butting into a conversation is didnt really have anything to do with untill somebody had some thoughs on my issues [06:13] It does except that i can not pick up wireless internet with windows and i can with kubuntu [06:13] Windows actually does not recognise a few handfuls of hardware etc. [06:13] Solaris444, my bad [06:14] its ok [06:14] Xavierg2003: Is this a brand new windows install? [06:14] indeed. [06:14] Had to reboot to dual boot [06:14] ah. go to driverpacks.net and read up. [06:15] hrmm, anybody know how i go about removeing various sources from the banshee library? i accidentally added the rsync backup drive so now i got 2 of all my tracks, really annoying [06:15] Solaris444: how are you for editing text in the command line? [06:16] hello geng!!!!! [06:16] the driverpacks, once integrated Xavierg2003 will automatically install your drivers during install. [06:16] KDewhirst: vi [06:16] onto windows? from Kubuntu? [06:17] Solaris444: awesome. I'll help you set your sources to the US mirror, and then you can set them to whatever you like from the gui [06:17] Xavierg2003: why not??:) [06:17] Ke tal alguien habla español? [06:17] no Xavierg2003, during INSTALL of windows. Just re-install windows and then fix up your boot loader. [06:17] Solaris444: (i have a working source list in front of me that uses the us mirror) [06:17] thanks KDwwhirst [06:17] sweet [06:17] i already fixed my boot loader [06:17] sure thing [06:18] or you are sayin i need to uninstall windows again and reinstall it. [06:18] Xavierg2003: go to driverpacks.net and start reading. Trust me. [06:18] Ke tal alguien habla español? [06:18] Ke tal alguien habla español? [06:18] Ke tal alguien habla español?

Para ayuda en Español, por favor entre en los canales #ubuntu-es o #kubuntu-es. [06:18] Can someone PM me & help me with the while command? [06:18] Solaris444: the file you want to edit is called /etc/apt/sources.lst [06:18] Xavierg2003, sometimes a util called SuperGRUB is quite handy for restorying your bootloader after reinstalling windows, just food for thought in your process [06:18] go it KDewhirst [06:18] ....... i don't know the process i don't even know what to look for on the web site [06:19] Xavierg2003: Just do a clean windows install once integrating the driver packs. [06:19] s [06:19] Solaris444: okay, lines 5 and 6 tell apt where to go to get its ubuntu-sponsered stuff, which will include your gui [06:19] Read their documentation Xavierg2003! [06:19] right. [06:19] Solaris444: if you set them to: [06:19] deb http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ hardy main restricted [06:19] deb-src http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ hardy main restricted [06:19] it should work for you [06:19] KDewhirst: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. [06:19] sorry, floodbot [06:19] What does integrating the driver packs mean? [06:19] hellos! [06:20] may i ask what application is used in this screenshot on the right side of the screen to monitor the system? [06:20] http://bildr.no/view/166474 [06:20] and the tutorial is in german [06:21] any ideas? [06:21] Nein sprechan ze hach duetsch [06:21] No habla espanoel [06:21] lol [06:21] making changes now KDewhirst [06:21] got another problem: alt + tab isn't working anymore [06:21] Solaris444: okay, good luck [06:21] where can i configure it? [06:22] Solaris: i don't know what your instuctions meant. [06:22] Solaris: pretend you are talking to a noob because i am [06:22] more or less [06:22] lol [06:23] yossarian: i would guess that it's http://torsmo.sourceforge.net/ [06:23] thanks :D [06:24] .... [06:24] is there an app that is better than this? [06:24] yossarian: no problem. I had a friend that used something like that [06:25] ciao [06:25] Sooooolllllllllaaaarrrriiiiisssss:....No? [06:25] Nothing? [06:25] Fine. [06:25] yossarian: i don't know. It looks cool, but it seems wasteful to monitor your performence like that to me [06:25] Xavierg2003: he's futzing with apt sources [06:25] huh? [06:25] Oh? [06:25] Xavierg2003: he's not going to reply while he's fighting with that [06:25] fot ya be back then will ask in five or so [06:26] as far as gaming is concerned in ubuntu, is there any other tool other than cedega to run games? [06:27] yossarian: I use wine, because it's free. What do you want to run? [06:27] yossarian: cedega and crossover are both derived from wine [06:27] i know [06:27] but how about high-end games like crysis? [06:28] yossarian: IIRC, wine surpassed cedega a while back. [06:28] BOOOOOOM === schnootops is now known as schnootop [06:28] ok but you have to be able to use it :P [06:28] yossarian: I've still not gotten crysis to work, but i can play oblivion just fine :) [06:29] yossarian: i play source games in wine all the time. it has more to do with code quality than with the power the game requires [06:29] yossarian: granted, i didn't really try teribly hard.

[06:49] i need help installing these icons :| [06:49] thanks a bunch dsdeiz [06:49] chris__: i don't know what that means [06:50] Sememmon: because for the HDMI support the sound has to go through the graphic cards so when you hook up a TV to the card it has sound on the TV [06:50] kdewhirst yeah im on the same page as you lmao [06:50] chris__: is that exactly what it said? [06:50] I'm looking for a way to boot Ubuntu from a USB flash stick ... everything I have found doesn't really do that ... instead they boot from a CD or floppy and mount the USB flash stick ... or require that I already have Ubuntu booted up to create a USB flash stick system ... any ideas how to take an existing ISO and put that image on the USB flash stick to be bootable like a hard drive instead of CD?

Ubuntu is what I need ... but I was trying to figure out if I could do a dual-boot on this machine from which I cannot boot any CD [06:59] KDewhirst: not that important, but it would have been interesting [06:59] hi [07:00] how can I, for a running X session, change the keyboard layout so that I have french accents? [07:00] Skapare: i did something similar to try out ubuntu on my eee. i used unetbootin to make a puppy linux live usb from an old 128 meg flash i had lying around. i wanted to use damn small linux, but it didn't support my eee's wireless (old kernel) [07:00] eMaX: do you mean picking a different keyboard layout? === jay is now known as jayb [07:01] i need help i cant type properly [07:01] sophia: I assume you have gcc itself installed (apt) and put that code in a file ; I really have no idea about a plain sample code, more a question for #bash or c++basic [07:01] i have to pres key for long time [07:02] then character appears [07:02] KDewhirst: eee should be able to boot a CD ... I have a broken HP laptop ... it can boot USB hard drive or flash key ... but it doesn't understand USB CD ... and the internal CD interface is dead ... so no way to boot any CD [07:02] where do i edit ServerName in apache2 in ubuntu? none of the files i've seen have it [07:02] and screen keeps flashing [07:02] skate2: apache2.conf [07:03] some kind od sticky settings [07:03] sophia : * #c++-basic [07:03] Skapare: it will boot an external cd drive if i scrounge one up, but it doesn't come with one internal. my dad has one at home, but i'm living in a dorm now, and no one seems to have one. [07:03] skate2: in /etc/apache2 [07:03] can i reset to default [07:04] KDewhirst: heh ... I have one (external USB DVD/CD-R) ... but the HP laptop BIOS is lame [07:04] nadim i've already looked there, /etc/apache2/apache2.conf doesn't have any lines that say ServerName [07:04] DasEi: I think i need some supporting libraries [07:05] skate2: they didn't put a ServerName line in the default conf file, just add it...I put it right after the ServerRoot entry [07:05] Skapare: it's a bit of an undertaking, but have you thought about updating it? i've never actually done it, but my dad wound up updating the bios on his laptop to make it boot from usb flash drives [07:05] any 1 in here familiar with application for telephony called: asterisk [07:05] i need help i just installed 8.10 i have an intel 1845g chip set and i cant change the screen resolution [07:05] KDewhirst: the world will move to flash devices for everything eventually, anyway ... even replacing blu-ray [07:05] sophia : that's possible, but I can't help you there [07:05] Skapare: i'm looking forward to the day that AOL installs boat past the 700 MB line and they have to distribute them on flash drives [07:05] KDewhirst: I can't get any OS except Linux to boot on it ... so updating the BIOS is out unless there is a way to do it through Linux [07:05] nadim thanks [07:06] its stuck on 800x600 [07:06] DasEi: ok :-) [07:06] Skapare: i don't know. i would feel safer doing it through xp because that's the way it was probably designed to be done, but it can't hurt to do some research [07:06] nadim, should i just put: ServerName = "localhost" [07:07] KDewhirst: I understand ... that was my thinking ... right now I'm booting slamd64 on it from a flash stick ... wanted to switch to ubuntu [07:07] skate2: No '=', you can just do "ServerName server.domain.com" [07:07] Skapare: i've never heard of that [07:07] servername = any name.xa to xz [07:07] KDewhirst: it's 64-bit slackware [07:08] Skapare: ah, fun stuff [07:08] i need help i just installed 8.10 i have an intel 1845g chip set and i cant change the screen resolution [07:08] its stuck on 800x600 [07:09] i845g [07:09] i need help i just installed 8.10 i have an intel i845g chip set and i cant change the screen resolution [07:09] Anyone in here know anything about virtualization? [07:10] kevin_: sure === ScottG_ is now known as ScottG [07:10] I'm trying to virtualize an x86 linux box so I can play with writing some kernel modules (The computer I'm on now is my desktop/server...I can't mess up a pointer and wipe my filesystem or something...). Anyone have any suggestions as to where I should go? I'm mostly looking for something easy to use that works rather than a solution more geared for performance. [07:10] ok this is driving me nuts [07:10] yossarian: que paso? [07:10] youtube and other flash sites are really choppy and eating up the cpu [07:10] kevin_: I use vmware server [07:10] what the flicken? [07:10] why let someone drive you up the wall when it's within walking distance [07:10] taht drives me nuts too. [07:11] kevin_: Do the PC's CPUs support hardware VT? If so, the kernel's own KVM would be good [07:12] IntuitiveNipple: I think so; I saw a bios option for that or something. It is an 'Athlon X2 5000' or whatever the hell, a couple of months old. [07:12] kevin_: For non-VT CPUs, KVM's cousin QEMU maybe (all the same commands/usage except totally software virtualisation/emulation). Or there's virtualBox... or go the other way and use a Xen kernel [07:13] kevin_: It is bound to have VT support then... you can check by looking at the cpu flags [07:13] for sure... give me a second... [07:13] any ideas? :( [07:13] i need help i just installed 8.10 i have an intel i845g chip set and i cant change the screen resolution [07:14] kevin_: egrep 'vmx|svm' /proc/cpuinfo [07:14] IntuitiveNipple: What would it be called in /proc/cpuinfo? Any ideas? [07:14] k [07:14] one step ahead of me. [07:14] kevin_: Intel shows vmx AMD shows svm [07:15] IntuitiveNipple: svm hits. [07:16] kevin_: You'll still need to ensure VT is enabled in the PC's BIOS - note some PCs - mainly laptops - may have it disabled *and* unavailable [07:16] IntuitiveNipple: Which way would you say is the easiest to use? [07:16] It is disabled, but available. [07:16] kevin_: I guess I'm biased but kvm is my favourite - light-weight but powerful [07:16] kevin_: I use it for routine kernel debugging [07:17] IntuitiveNipple: sweet. I'm trying to break into some kernel hacking; my friend told me to write a 'one' character device.

I don't get a higher resolution choice than 800x600. [07:19] kevin_: One thing with kernel development though - you have to be ready to wade through mailing-lists and out-of-date information :) [07:20] Section "Device" [07:20] Identifier "Configured Video Device" [07:20] Driver "vesa" [07:20] EndSection [07:20] Section "Monitor" [07:20] jason: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. [07:20] Identifier "Configured Monitor" [07:21] IntuitiveNipple: I know...I did a little bit of embedded stuff at my last job (lots of mailing list digging), I built a lightweight distro for an ARM9, but I didn't have to actually cut any kernel code, we hired a real programmer (I was an intern) basically as I finished tidying up the root filesystem and stuff. [07:21] and i cant get the driver for it [07:21] they took it out of this version [07:21] jason: What do you need help with? [07:21] my screen resolution [07:21] jason : shall be xserver-xorg-intel [07:21] jason: for your montitor? [07:22] kevin_: We'd love having someone with ARM experience about the place [07:22] and video driver [07:22] jason: what brand monitor do you have? [07:22] dell [07:22] its and old computer [07:22] jason: what model number and everything? [07:22] 8.04 worked fine [07:22] jason: I need to look up some numbers for you to dump into your xorg.conf [07:22] does anyone know when the next release will be put in production in april? just curious [07:22] IntuitiveNipple: What for? Is ubuntu doing some embedded stuff? [07:23] i use to install the i945 driver in Synapatic but its not there [07:23] jason: I *thought* the 'intel' driver handled that chipset? [07:23] paul68: 9.4 or something like that [07:23] where it go to [07:23] Hamm [07:23] this is bull [07:24] HammerHead66: Is there already a release date since april has 30 days lol [07:24] jason: chill, we'll get it to work === ScottG_ is now known as ScottG489 [07:24] paul68: april 4th I think [07:24] jason: I've just checked. The 'intel' driver does support the 845G [07:25] well its not at all [07:26] IntuitiveNipple what driver night that b ur talking about [07:26] HammerHead66: ok just another question can you upgrade / partition and leave the current /home partition as it is or is it better to start from scratch on both sides [07:26] jason: Have you tried it? Did X fail to start using it? Or just start in a lower resolution (800x600 is the default if the monitor doesn't support EDID) [07:26] I updated xorg.conf. How do I restart the video driver [07:26] jason: you've gotta modify your xorg.conf to change the driver [07:26] paul68: I have no clue about that might want to ask around about that one [07:27] beanie77: log out, log back in again [07:27] ok no problem thanks for the info [07:27] paul68: np [07:27] i did that kevin and when i restart it gives error [07:27] and i have to set it back to defult and restart [07:27] jason: what error does it give you? Post it in a pastebin.... [07:28] jason: or paraphrase it to me [07:28] paul68: Having a separate /home partition is a good thing, and yes, you can 'share' it over different releases. There are some programs might throw a wobbly due to changes in their configuration files but I've not experienced that myself === artaud is now known as morice-net [07:28] i guess ubuntu thinks everyone that uses it has a big graphic card now [07:29] IntuitiveNipple: so at that point you should only reinstall the programs that cause any problems or am I wrong [07:29] jason: When the X server fails it is supposed to save the log file to Xorg.0.log.old, then restart X using a 'fail-safe' configuration. You should then be able to look at /var/log/Xorg.0.log.old for the reason the session didn't start. [07:29] IntuitiveNipple: Is there any way to update/change releases without wiping the filesystem? I'm a gentoo convert, and a little new to how everything works. [07:30] paul68: At that point the programs would be installed - I'd back-up the offending configuration file(s) and let it recreate preferred ones. Most programs are _supposed_ to deal with that situation - certainly programs supported by Ubuntu are. [07:30] jason: post the log file to http://pastebin.com/ for me. ok? [07:30] /var/log/Xorg.0.log.old << where is that located [07:30] kevin_: You can do an in-place dist-upgrade from one Ubuntu version to the next [07:31] IntuitiveNipple: and occasionally the system still works afterwards... ;=( [07:31] jason: It says it on the tin: /var/log/Xorg.0.log.old [07:31] IntuitiveNipple: thats nice to know, I never run multiple partitions or anything. I'd rather just fix it if it breaks.... [07:31] jason: IT's supposed to be in /var/log [07:32] jason: that's where it is located. In all unixes, everything starts with '/'. [07:32] frybye: I've not experienced issues upgrading both servers and desktops using dist-upgrade. The only supported path is to go from one LTS to the next, or from one release to the next and then the next and so on. E.g. you can't do Gutsy to Intrepid but you can go Gutsy > Hardy > Intrepid [07:33] i am taking about intrepid > jaunty beta this morning which has left me with no sound.. but that is my fault of course.. will work on it when I get home from work in about 5 hrs.. [07:33] IntuitiveNipple: ok another question what is the best way to partitionise your hard drive in my case I have a 160 gb on my laptop I'd say the first / the second /home /swap and I don't know if there are others that need to work efficiently [07:33] jason: http://freeengineer.org/learnUNIXin10minutes.html [07:33] i found it [07:34] how i past it in here with out getting in trouble [07:34] jason: dont. [07:34] jason use pastebin [07:34] jason: post the log file to http://pastebin.com/ [07:34] paul68: I'd have sda1 ext2 /boot, sda2 swap (size RAM*2 - allows room for hibernate), sda3 LVM [07:34] paul68: You could make one partition for media stuff, in case your home gets screwed you don't lose videos, music etc [07:34] jason: then, you send us the link. it makes a mess all over the channel.

You'll need to change /etc/X11/xorg.conf and remove the 'driver' line so the operating system detects the correct video driver. If that then fails, the resulting log will help us know why. [07:38] jason: How much RAM does that PC have? [07:38] IntuitiveNipple i post me /etc/X11/xorg.conf ok [07:39] http://pastebin.com/m7f771118 === NanMalm is now known as nanmalm [07:40] jason: I'd comment out or remove the "Driver" line so the server can detect the best driver to use. It should then try the 'intel' driver [07:41] jason: The reason for the 800x600 resolution is as I said originally. The monitor does *not* support EDID - thats how a monitor tells a video adaptor what resolutions it can support - so the driver selected a safe resolution [07:42] it work great in 8.04 [07:42] they really messed 8.10 up bad [07:42] <|Jason8|> jason: they didn't mess anything up [07:42] i think they dont want no one to use it no more [07:43] <|Jason8|> something went wrong in your install [07:43] <|Jason8|> and they're telling you EXACTLY how to fix it. [07:43] jason: 8.10 is a testing Ubuntu [07:43] jason: Quit freaking out. [07:43] <|Jason8|> Good luck finding tech support like this for microsoft products. ;) [07:43] 8.10 isnt testing [07:43] its in final [07:43] jason: it is testing software [07:43] it doesnt say that [07:44] jason: In 8.04 resolutions weren't auto detected. From 8.10 they are. hardware that doesn't support EDID (anything after 2001 should) causes the issue [07:44] jason: so why is 8.04 for the masses then? [07:44] the 9.4 is in testing [07:44] 9.04 [07:44] jason: Chill out; if don't want to fiddle with things occasionally, buy a Mac. [07:44] lol [07:45] i start with ubuntu when 5.10 came out [07:45] and i have try every thing to fix this [07:45] jason: you should read about something before you install it [07:46] jason: If it'll make you any happier, it is a known issue and we would like to solve it. It was not a good idea to add auto-detect and at the same time remove the old manual monitor selection option. [07:46] brb [07:47] hi all [07:47] KDewhirst: wow, unetbootin sure produces a flood of error messages before it asks for root password ... any idea what it needs root for? if just to access /dev for the USB flash stick, I'd rather just chmod the device instead [07:47] stryd_one: hello [07:47] Skapare: i really don't know [07:48] I'm trying to take a screenshot of a feature in an application (a tooltip), but when I use the printscreen key, it steals focus from the app, and the tooltip disappears.... I wonder if anyone knows a trick to get around that? [07:49] stryd_one: Set a timed capture with say a 5-second delay, then get the tooltip up before the delay expires [07:49] ah clever :) [07:49] KDewhirst: well, I'm not giving root password to a downloaded executable image ... and the source would not compile because my Qt is too old [07:49] thankyou sir! [07:50] KDewhirst: I'll try to read the source and see if I can just understand what it's doing, and do it manually [07:50] Skapare: Ubuntu doesn't have a 'root' password [07:50] what is the difference between metacity and gtk 2.0? [07:50] Skapare: i've used it before with no issue, but i got it from the ubuntu repos [07:50] IntuitiveNipple: I'm doing this WITH Ubuntu, not from Ubuntu [07:50] I just downloaded a gtk 2.0 theme and it changed the buttons etc, not just the topbar [07:50] I'm just googling for a tool that will allow it, but if you know one off the top of your head I'd be rather interested ;) [07:50] !info scrot [07:50] scrot (source: scrot): command line screen capture utility. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.8-7 (intrepid), package size 15 kB, installed size 84 kB [07:50] scrot -d 5 file_name [07:50] is that it? [07:50] hehe [07:50] rock on [07:51] stryd_one: Applications > Accessories > Take a Screenshot [07:51] canuck1: You can customize them too, so you can only change the bar and not the icons and stuff [07:51] What does ubottu not know? [07:51] !info gimmage [07:51] Package gimmage does not exist in intrepid [07:51] Ahh.. :) [07:52] KDewhirst: if I knew how the Ubuntu CD's kernel looks for the root filesystem to mount, and can trick it to mount a partition from the flash stick instead, I could make it boot from the flash stick manually [07:52] faeryan: and I installed emerald. is there a purpose for this? I installed some emerald themes, can I get the transparency etc with gtk themes? [07:53] faeryan: I love this brushed metal look for all the apps [07:53] canuck1: I don't think so, except for terminal backgrounds and stuff [07:53] KDewhirst: I can built bootable flash sticks ... its getting Ubuntu to understand that's where to look for its files, instead of a CD/DVD ... that's the issue [07:53] Skapare: you're doing all this from a livecd, right? if you don't trust the program, unplug your harddrive and do it all in ram [07:53] canuck1: But emerald allows you a lot of customization so with a little (or a bit more) effort you can make it looks whatever you like the most. [07:54] faeryan: I also copied the tahoma font in there for nice displays :) [07:54] fucker [07:54] woah [07:54] you all fucker [07:54] KDewhirst: no ... I'm running slamd64 on my desktop ... this is where I have enough USB ports to make the USB stick bootable ... on the laptop I have ONE USB port, and it is occupied when I boot slamd64 on it [07:55] !language |gast [07:55] gast: Please watch your language and topic to help keep this channel family friendly. [07:55] works like a charm, you beauty, thanks guys :D [07:55] my name ol dirty j [07:55] KDewhirst: so I'm trying to run unetbootin from my desktop, and will give it the ubunti ISO image file [07:55] stryd_one: Applications > Accessories > Take a Screenshot <----- well colour me embarassed. [07:55] Skapare: can't you shut off, unplug the hdd, and then do it? [07:55] or just umount the hdd you don't want accessed? [07:55] stryd_one: If you insist lol [07:55] schwanz lecker [07:55] !attitude |gast [07:55] gast: The people here are volunteers, your attitude should reflect that. Answers are not always available. See http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines [07:55] stryd_one: I have that attached to the top-panel for ease of access [07:56] KDewhirst: no ... lots of stuff running on here ... maybe I could set up a qemu VM [07:56] canuck1: Good luck with emerald, I'm signing off. [07:56] Skapare: oy [07:56] i'm having a bit of a laugh at myself for trying the hard way when the easy way was literally right in front of my face. must be too used to windoze ;) [07:56] Bye! [07:56] stryd_one: often happens ! [07:57] appreciate the help guys [07:58] KDewhirst: is there any doc online that gives a step by step description of how ubuntu boots up and initializes ... maybe that would tell me enough to make the USB stick image from that [07:58] Skapare: not that i know of, sorry [07:58] Skapare: You can install 'raw' using debootstrap [07:59] IntuitiveNipple: I don't understand how that helps me [07:59] Skapare: I can point you to an article I wrote on how to do it with user-mode linux - I often use the same process for chroot's or raw VM images too. [07:59] Skapare: It is the way we create bootable images from scratch === ogra_ is now known as ogra [08:01] IntuitiveNipple: if I "tear apart" the Ubuntu ISO image, I should see a kernel it brings up ... that kernel will eventually mount the CD filesystem ... and maybe further mounts after that ... and maybe initramfs or initrd in between ... if I knew what that first step was, I could make a flash stick with grub and the kernel from the ISO and maybe get it to mount the flash stick partition [08:02] Skapare: You should look at the 'casper' package - that's the live-image booter [08:02] IntuitiveNipple: a source package? [08:02] live images for boot use syslinux [08:03] as long as syslinux will do the USB flash stick, that should be fine [08:03] Skapare: all ubuntu packages are available from source as well as as installable binaries. [08:03] How do I copy files in shell from a date to now ? [08:03] IntuitiveNipple: Hey, you know some "0 to 100" bourne again shell manual? [08:03] IntuitiveNipple: I'm just trying to transform the ubuntu ISO into a form that will boot on a USB flash stick [08:04] rickard: use 'find' to identify the range of files, then pass it's results to xarg cp ... [08:04] infiter789: I use http://tldp.org/LDP/abs/html/index.html [08:05] IntuitiveNipple: I know how to build an image that could just self boot from either a CD/DVD or from a hard drive, without any change whatsoever ... just "dd" to a hard drive, or to a flash stick ... or "cdrecord" it to a CD or DVD ... and it will be bootable ... maybe a future Ubuntu should do this [08:05] IntuitiveNipple: e.g. one image ... boots either way [08:05] IntuitiveNipple: Is quite good, not? I am a little noob with Shell, is at my rate? [08:06] Skapare: the live-CD ISO? There's a tool that does that in Jaunty, and I believe Intrepid, available by default from the System > Administration menu. [08:06] infiter789: It is invaluable [08:06] IntuitiveNipple: You mean, is too good, difficult to find? [08:06] infiter789: Read it yourself and decide [08:07] I checked the log file and xorg doesn't identify my monitor correctly and defaults to 800x600. How do I fix this? [08:07] IntuitiveNipple: yeah, but if I take the ISO and just "dd" it to a USB flash stick, that isn't bootable ... I could make one that is [08:07] Skapare: I'm sorry to leave you in the middle of this, but i think we've moved out of my league and it's 0100 here [08:07] IntuitiveNipple: Oh man, I have enough with C/C++, you gonna kill me :P Thanks [08:07] beanie77: See https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg-server/+bug/194760 [08:07] infiter789: c and bash have a lot in common [08:07] KDewhirst: n/p ... thanks for the help and the lead to unetbootin [08:08] Skapare: no problem. i hope everything works out for you [08:08] Thanks, I'll check it out. [08:08] good night [08:08] KDewhirst: g/n [08:08] KDewhirst: Yes, I know, but I am learner right now, I am studying C/C++ from the book of Deitel and Deitel, and well, Bash Shell from internet right now. [08:09] cuando saldra ya la beta 9.04 ? [08:09] IntuitiveNipple: Thanks for the advice about virtualization, I'm out of here. [08:09] kevin_: have fun with it :) [08:09] IntuitiveNipple: for sure :) [08:09] IntuitiveNipple: but being able to make an image that can boot as a CD/DVD or can boot as a hard disk ... doesn't mean I can make it bring up ubuntu's system [08:09] !es | AsTuRiAnO [08:09] AsTuRiAnO: En la mayoría de canales Ubuntu se comunica en inglés. Para ayuda en Español, por favor entre en los canales #ubuntu-es o #kubuntu-es. [08:10] infiter789: i actually have that book. it's fantastic [08:10] sorry, quit as i got your message [08:10] and then bad things happened when i tried to reply [08:10] Skapare: As long as it boot-straps the casper images it'll boot [08:10] mythv on intrepid/8.10 - does this actually work? [08:10] KDewhirst: Yes, here in Argentina, is about hmmm... $37 dollars. I read it and compare with other books, and it was better. [08:11] dj_ryan: Yes [08:11] Hi, I'm new and I have a prob with the sound card (everything work but the mic). I have a Ubuntu Intrepid installed on Dell XPS 1530. I checked on google but it seems there is no solution. Anyone by any chance knows the problem and has a solution? [08:11] IntuitiveNipple: why can't i apt-get then? something about libmp3lame0 dependencies? [08:11] hi [08:11] KDewhirst: A question, you know if I can create a "login and password" here in #ubuntu? [08:11] infiter789: you'll have to register a nick with freenode [08:11] ugh! i cant take windows anymore [08:12] @ [08:12] ! [08:12] infiter789: and that will cover you for every freenode chanel [08:12] dj_ryan: Have you got the multiverse repository enabled? [08:12] What is myth tv exactly? [08:12] IntuitiveNipple: well, see, I don't know even what "casper images" is ... when Linux boots up, it either mounts a filesystem and runs an init program ... or loads an initramfs or initrd image and runs /linuxrc ... or other variations ... what it does from there is up to however ubuntu is built [08:12] Free television or what [08:12] ? [08:12] KDewhirst: You know how? [08:12] i tried liking it, i really did, ran it for a year, but it inevitably gets slow and viris/worm infected no matter how careful you are [08:12] IntuitiveNipple: i think so... let me check again [08:12] the beta of 9.04 is going to be released today? right? [08:12] infiter789: is learning to program harder when english isn't your first language? i know linus pushes for programers to learn english, but is it weird to translate code to english to spanish, or do you do it differently? [08:12] deb http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ intrepid multiverse [08:12] infiter789: let me get you a how-to [08:13] IntuitiveNipple: FYI, I have built embedded Linux systems, including cable TV set top boxes ... I know the fundamentals ... I just don't know the Ubuntu specifics [08:13] Skapare: So go look then. I explained earlier that 'casper' is how Ubuntu handles live images. It includes boot scripts that set-up the correct environment and so forth. [08:13] IntuitiveNipple: basically yes [08:13] most important software is written in english [08:13] so if you want to work with most code, you should learn english [08:13] infiter789: say this: /msg nickserv register [08:13] and the languages themselves are in english [08:13] i.e. the keywords [08:14] KDewhirst: English is fine with me, Is like my second mother language, but... well, I most read and hear, I dont usually speak it or write it... only for programming and here in IRC. [08:14] Anyone running Ubuntu on the latest MacBook Pro? From looking at the wiki I'm unsure if it will work or not... [08:14] dj_ryan: What command were you trying to run when you got the dependency error? [08:14] bye all, thanks again dsdeiz and IntuitiveNipple [08:14] IntuitiveNipple: there's a gap in that ... I need a documentation on this casper images ... to know how it makes the kernel get to it [08:14] KDewhirst: Done [08:14] IntuitiveNipple: sudo apt-get install mythtv-frontend mythtv-backend mythvideo [08:14] IntuitiveNipple: what the casper images then do I won't need to know ... I just need to know how to get it that stage [08:15] infiter789: you should get an email about that that'll have the last step in it [08:15] okay, i'm really going to bed now [08:15] Skapare: http://packages.ubuntu.com/intrepid/casper [08:15] KDewhirst: Okay, thanks, how was my english? [08:15] wow kde 4 really looks niiice [08:15] IntuitiveNipple: i suppose i should mention i had mythtv installed on 8.04 which previously came from 7.04 and even earlier [08:15] I think I need to get to bed too ... eyes are shutting down on me === ZehRique is now known as ZehRique[Sleepin [08:16] infiter789: it's good. i wouldn't have placed you for not being native until you said you were from argentina. after that, some of your word choice was a little strange, but it makes sense [08:16] Everytime I mute my sound and unmute it again the audio switches from earphone to speaker. I have to replug my earphones again to switch it back. [08:16] dj_ryan: It is probable some library dependency changed. [08:16] kde is nice but i think its less stable then gnome [08:16] KDewhirst: Blame games, I learn from there hahahaa [08:17] dj_ryan: Can you pastebin the complete output from apt-get when you do that command to give me a sense of what is happening? [08:17] KDewhirst: Like final fantasy, that was my English teacher [08:17] kde has many quircks [08:17] final fantasy ftw [08:17] hehe [08:17] IntuitiveNipple: yeah old on [08:17] infiter789: haha, excellent [08:17] KDewhirst: The email, it will arrive soon? [08:17] IntuitiveNipple: OK ... thanks ... I'll download its source tomorrow and see what docs are inside to figure it out ... it appears I need to create the context to start that program somehow [08:17] IntuitiveNipple: wow,i got it to work [08:17] infiter789: it was pretty quick for me [08:17] IntuitiveNipple: basically it said 'libmyth-0-21 wont be install' but i was able ot install that, and now... it goes === odder_ is now known as odder [08:18] I am running ubuntu server 8.10, and whenever I try to run a command as sudo, I get a Segmentation Fault. Anything I can do other than a hard restart? [08:18] ddoom: does 'su' work? [08:18] ddoom, sounds like a bug t omew [08:18] a bug to me [08:19] if he drops from the room, does that count as an answer? [08:19] KDewhirst: go to bed! [08:19] arg [08:19] but his problem is so interesting [08:19] KDewhirst: Last question. What compiler you use for C++? I usually use Geany. [08:19] KDewhirst: :-) [08:19] gcc or g++ is the true compiler i believe [08:19] infiter789: i use visual studio 2008 because that's what's on the school computers here [08:20] don't hate me! [08:20] * Skapare uses gcc for is C programs [08:20] right, g++ for c++ [08:20] it asks for Password. But there is no root pw set so i get 'su: Authentication failure' [08:20] KDewhirst: we don't hate you ... we just gate your school :) [08:20] oh, wow [08:20] that's a mess [08:20] KDewhirst: Ubuntu Visual Studio 2008? [08:20] does anyone run asus eeepc1000he in here, if you do I need to knowsome specific informations.... [08:20] How do I copy files in shell from a date to now, I dont have the time to find out so the command would be very nice. [08:20] oh god not vs 2008 [08:20] infiter789: haha [08:21] i use that at work and i hate it [08:21] KDewhirst: well, hate your school ... but I guess it has been "gated" :) [08:21] KDewhirst: I download it, a ubuntu visual studio, 1.2 gb is a .iso. [08:21] but i use it for c# which is a language that i hate even more [08:21] glick: What do you hate about c#?

[08:21] infiter789: are you sure? it's a microsoft product and i've never heard of it working anywhere but windows [08:22] I just got an asus eeepc1000he and want to know does it scail to 1.0 ghz in ubuntu? [08:22] somone please help me [08:22] can anyone help me i havea fresh install of 8.10 and im trying to get good resolution with my plasma tv i have a nvidia 9600 gt dvi-hdmi and i need help anyone pleasE??? [08:22] * Skapare is off to bed ... really [08:22] my old laptop only goes form800 mhz or 1.66 ghz, nothing in between [08:22] hans-rudolf, i find it confusing, no includes, etc, its very hard to just look at code to know whats going on you NEED to use a IDE which keeps track of things for you [08:22] sevith: i have a simliar situation, the default config tends to be pretty goodish [08:23] KDewhirst: Yes, microsoft (hate u bill gay) have a visual studio 2008 (a free and a pay). But I download a Ubuntu Studio, no idea what it is. [08:23] its for musi [08:23] music [08:23] ubuntu studeo [08:23] but i am also known to hack xorg.conf files manually, so no one should listen to me :-( [08:23] glick: some people here swear by it, but i haven't played with it yet [08:23] infiter789: oh, that's something completely different [08:23] that's for a/v development [08:23] KDewhirst: Yes, is a multimedia editor, not? [08:24] glick: Writing include directives is just extra work, you can import namspaces. What wrong with that? [08:24] yeah, visual studio is a code development suite [08:24] i have to download and install ubuntu tomorrow [08:24] windows is blowing up on me [08:24] damn its such a hassle to do simple things in windows [08:24] heh [08:24] KDewhirst: But if you use Visual Studio... you cant run it in Ubuntu, or... you emulate it with wine? [08:24] i have downloaded 3-4 gb of ubuntu from bittorrent and mirrors in the last 2 days :-) [08:24] i am running windows but i want ot install linux on the eeepc1000he [08:25] Does is come with ubuntu genuine advantage :p? [08:25] lol what [08:25] don't forget about silverlight [08:25] hans-rudolf, with namespaces sometimes spanning multiple files and all its just ugly and hard to follow without an IDE [08:25] infiter789: i don't know how well it would work in wine. I made up a vm the other day to use just for visual studio. it seems like the kind of thing that would be broken in wine [08:25] farhansportables: and whats wrong? [08:25] I guess know one has an asus eeepc1000he [08:25] genuine advantage is about the creepiest marketing con i've ever seen. [08:25] virtualbox handles vs2005 withoot problems [08:25] when I heard about that I was like what the crap yo [08:25] :S did a hard restart and am still getting Seg Fault when using sudo [08:26] dont get me wrong, i think .net is great [08:26] .net/mono [08:26] i just dont like c# [08:26] even more so then i dislike java [08:26] plus mono has a low performance VM compared to the JVM :-) [08:26] I don't know how to program [08:26] simplexio: i'd rather use 2008, to be honest. i haven't used 2005 since... 2005, i guess. I was taking java at the time, and used codewarrior for c++ [08:26] back in the day [08:26] my favorite lang is python [08:26] farhansportables: is there something not working with your ubuntu install? [08:26] c#, java ain so bad if you have coded something for symbian 2ed or 3rd ed [08:26] glick: I don't follow your point but ok... [08:27] ddoom: can you paste the commands so I see them I might be able to help === christian is now known as Guest42590 [08:27] i odn't have ubuntuinstalled yet but I wanted to know somethings before i installed it [08:27] !offtopic [08:27] #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics. Thanks! [08:27] KDewhirst: im mean. if 2005 works nice in vbox then should 2008 too [08:27] farhansportables: what would you like to know? [08:27] i feel like i've created a coding flamewar [08:27] hans-rudolf, i just think c# can be confusing sometimes [08:27] i got the !offtopic when i mentioned ubuntu on the debian channel [08:27] they were _not_ happy [08:27] i bet they weren't [08:27] simplexio: okay, i'll give it a shot. thank you [08:27] glick: What about java? They are pretty similar. [08:27] HammerHead66: http://paste.ubuntu.com/138070/ [08:27] i didnt get it :-) [08:28] dj_ryan: well ubuntu and debian are different, if you want to chat please do so in #ubuntu-offtopic [08:28] KDewhirst: In USA buy an original microsoft software is quite accessible... but here... is to expensive. There a normal man receive 4000 dollars per month... here... only 500. [08:28] see [08:28] that's what im talking about!

[08:28] can [08:28] KDewhirst: my experince is that, vmware has painfully slow io, vbox feel actually faster than native windows ( when developing ) [08:28] only speedsteps from 800 mhz to 1.66 ghz [08:28] KDewhirst: (Why, not by) [08:28] but i like include and imports in files [08:29] farhansportables: please keep your question on one line, what exactly are you asking? [08:29] guys i need help bad when i try to load full screen games al i see is distorted colors as if my graphix card was broken or something [08:29] so you know what your file is using [08:29] infiter789: i couldn't afford it myself, being a starving college student, but microsoft licenses the software for free through my school [08:29] but i play non fullscreen games fine [08:29] ddoom: sudo ./apt-get update <-----------------------type this in command line [08:29] kalidar: tried disabling compiz first and what game? [08:29] sould someome help me!!!?

I am running Ubuntu Intrepid on amd64 with a mobo with NVidia chipset, with integrated nVidia Corporation CK804 AC'97 Audio Controller (rev a2). When my computer is busy (I think when cpu is occupied) my music (both mp3's and audiostreams) hickups sometimes. It doesn't matter which player I use (mplayer in the commandline for the audio stream, amarok for mp3's). [08:39] whens that commin otu?

But I want to get my hands on 9.04, My question is, if i install the Beta, will my install "evolve" into the same install as a the release. That is if i keep the system up to date? [08:40] sometimes the same tone in the music just repeats a couple of times, before the music continues [08:40] http://paste.ubuntu.com/138075/ [08:40] GrimmVarg: yes [08:40] did you get that? [08:40] GrimmVarg: 1) Jaunty/9.04 questions and support in #ubuntu+1, not here. 2) Yes. [08:40] GrimmVarg: Yes, as long as you keep updating, you'll end up with the same system [08:40] SmokeyD: sounds like a pulseaudio issue [08:41] IntuitiveNipple / DJones ty, thats all i wanted to hear! 9.04 here i come :) [08:41] SmokeyD: what version of ubuntu?

[08:50] ziroday: http://pastebin.com/d75bbcda6 [08:50] kalidar: okay, you were just using a compositing window manager (compiz), with it the game would not load correctly, like many other games. If you need to quickly swap between metacity and compiz install fusion-icon or create a wrapper script for your game. If you are not running compiz your widgets will not show as they need compiz [08:50] killerboy http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=835094 [08:50] SmokeyD: thanks [08:50] thanks alot btw [08:50] is amsn the only app that supports video calls on msn?

[08:59] the dock thingy at bottom [08:59] !anyone | bluenzo^nix [08:59] avant window navigator [08:59] bluenzo^nix: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..." Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out? [08:59] I've been doing all my video editing in Windows, but I'd really like to do that work in Ubuntu, as it's the last thing I do in windows. Currently, my issue is that sound and video tracks don't match up properly when playing a dv-avi in Ubuntu using a file that works right in windows. I assume that this is some sort of audio issue, but flv files work perfectly. Can anyone give me a pointer as to where to look to fix this issue? [08:59] ziroday: I just thought of a diagnosis: use mplayer -ao alsa instead of the default which uses pulseaudio. If the problem disappears, it is pulseaudio [08:59] SmokeyD: ooh didn't know you could do that [08:59] that was my real question :P [08:59] SmokeyD: and if its pulseaudio, then you should really, really talk to aforementioned person [08:59] bluenzo^nix: yes, some people use avant [08:59] oh and its not my first question, thanks ;D [08:59] SmokeyD: and try out jaunty [09:00] ive been messing with it, it seems buggy to me [09:00] ziroday: to who? [09:00] cant get it working properly... [09:00] SmokeyD: see PM [09:00] ziroday: I don't see any PM [09:00] bluenzo^nix: what is not working? [09:01] SmokeyD: I would check your pidgin windows [09:01] well for one... when I drag a icon to it (like opera's icon) it puts it on the left side of the bar, puts in a separator that you cant remove [09:01] SmokeyD: anyway, no matter what it is you should file a bug [09:01] so its like in this format [custom icon...open windows...applets] [09:01] i just deleted a file on my second hard drive, which is ntfs, and it isn't showing up in the trash in nautilus [09:02] did it go somewhere else? or get permanently deleted? [09:02] bluenzo^nix: I believe you have to remove it from the launcher area, you might want to try out docky if you are looking for a decent dock [09:02] raevol: permanently deleted [09:02] ziroday: still no PM. Not in other tabs and not in other windows. But I will file a bug in the ubuntu bugtracker? Or in a more specific one? It seems that when using alsa as output plugin, the problem is still there. [09:02] ziroday: thanks [09:03] SmokeyD: under launchpad, you should talk to dtchen [09:03] <_Whipper> raevol: nothing gets "permanently" deleted, if you didnt overwrite it thousand times :) [09:03] omg so much hastle :( ziroday heres yr snapshot bud thx for helping me [09:03] ziroday: ok, thanks for the input [09:03] raevol: there should be a .trash folder at the root of the partition that you deleted it from - could be there depending on how you deleted it [09:03] http://imagebin.org/42972 [09:03] _Whipper: i actually did want to delete it, but i just wanted to make sure it wasn't still taking up room in some imaginary trash somewhere === florin is now known as Guest53932 [09:04] whats the room for ubuntu philippines? [09:04] <_Whipper> raevol: ok [09:04] raevol: Go to the root directory of your NTFS partition (aka the equivalent of Windows' \), show hidden files (Ctrl-H) and look for directories named "trash" or similar. If there isn't one, you're good. [09:04] did you get that day? [09:04] whats the room for ubuntu philippines? anywone knows? [09:04] kalidar: I did not realise you were using kubuntu, you should of told me :). For you fusion-icon won't work. Ask in #kubuntu for an easy solution to switch between compiz and kwin [09:04] yea, don't see one, thanks rww === Guest53932 is now known as IceyBlack [09:04] hi all [09:05] kubuntu wont work sorry [09:05] i cant get in channel [09:05] oh nvm [09:05] kalidar: can't get in the channel? [09:05] can you guys recommend me an aplications which i can record my desktop? [09:05] is pulseaudio a layer on top of alsa? [09:05] IceyBlack: gtk-recordmydesktop [09:05] SmokeyD: yep [09:05] should i type sudo apt-get remove fusion-icon? [09:05] kalidar: yep [09:05] thanks [09:05] sry man [09:05] Thank you ziroday [09:05] wahid: #ubuntu-ph [09:05] ziroday: ok, so the problem is probably with alsa then [09:06] what mode am i in rite now? [09:06] i went from compiz to whats this one called? [09:06] metacity? [09:06] what is a good way to make my cpu busy? Withouth using a lot of memory or disk IO? [09:07] SmokeyD: cat /dev/urandom ? [09:07] ziroday: good idea [09:07] kalidar: if you're using KDE, that would explain why metacity --replace caused problems. Metacity is a GNOME thing ;) [09:07] omg should i remove metacity as well :( [09:07] hello [09:07] moin [09:07] ich im slowly hateing linux lol [09:08] its so much hastle to do the simplest of tasks [09:08] !ubuntu [09:08] Ubuntu is a complete Linux-based operating system, freely available with both community and professional support.

I have a HP laptop and I would like to be able to control the fan speed in 8.10. Is there a way?

[09:10] there may be a way to get it working, i don't know [09:10] that would explain why i cant get it to work [09:10] but that's why media things can be probablematic [09:10] doesn't mean someone hasn't figured out how to make it work [09:10] wow... sigh.. everythings problematic with linux lol [09:10] hèhè, I reniced yakuake (my terminal) to -8 while running cat /dev/urandom inside it and yakuake crashed :) Guess I found another bug :) [09:10] <_Whipper> kalidar: theres a way..

[09:11] vlc can playback allmost everything [09:11] maybe try mplayer === Kernel is now known as Wicked [09:12] its all good [09:12] What's the terminal command to stop an initscript from running at startup? update something or other. [09:12] kalidar, i feel that way about windows [09:12] s/initscript/service/ [09:12] kalidar: also, i'm a gamer so i feel your pain as to games not working, but the reason for that is shoddy-ass game programmers who use direct3d [09:12] how! windows you just click and everythings done here you gota practicaly program yr hole system just to get a soundfile to play lol [09:13] a lot of good games do work on linux, like doom, quake, unreal tournament, etc [09:13] lmao wow doom quake and unreal tourn lmao those arnt good games :P [09:13] those are 1998 games lol [09:13] kalidar: yeah, but you have to format it every two months... [09:13] kalidar: that's a bit of an overstatement ;) ever tried to install sound drivers on windows? linux has them already built in [09:13] !games | kalidar [09:13] kalidar: Information about games on Ubuntu can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Games and http://www.icculus.org/lgfaq/gamelist.php [09:13] knock yourself out [09:13] UT3 works in linux... [09:13] yes true! [09:13] <_Whipper> kalidar: just palin ignorence doesnt mean linux "cant" do what u want :) [09:13] windows does suck for that [09:13] <_Whipper> plain* [09:14] kalidar: we can help you, but can't teach you reading, my multimedia does fine... if you're cpmplete new to linux, it might take few weeks to get the basics, but for me it was worth it [09:14] and doom 3 isn't from 1998, nor is UT2004 :P [09:14] ive been using linux for a month now i like it alot dont get me wrong [09:14] but i stil cant get games movies or pretymuch anything that has to do with the entertainment department to work [09:14] jaunty beta tomorrow? [09:14] i read lots of docs and stuf but usualy unhelpfull thats why i come here u guys are realy smart at stuff like this [09:15] mtholdenss: ask in #ubuntu+1 [09:15] !appdb > kalidar [09:15] kalidar, please see my private message [09:15] kalidar extended gaming is a lack of it, multimedia does fine [09:15] <_Whipper> kalidar: so do some learning then, and stop making such claims.. :) [09:15] kalidar: you must be doing something wrong, i have no problems with music or videos [09:15] yeah its probs a problem with my lib [09:15] i need to format and reinstall anyway as alot of my stuf is bugy and dosent save [09:16] kalidar: just learn how to use mplayer - it will deal with all your multimedia needs :) [09:16] kalidar : which version (distro) ? [09:16] and it never rembers the placement of widgets and stuf and sometimes when i load linux my taskbar isent were it should be lol [09:16] kde 4.1 [09:16] i liked the old kde better [09:16] !version [09:16] To find out what version of Ubuntu you have, type « lsb_release -a » in a !shell - To know the available version of a package, « apt-cache policy » [09:16] this version is garbage [09:16] its like vista [09:16] i never used KDE [09:16] <_Whipper> kalidar: use kde 3.x, more stable [09:16] yeah im thinkin of switching to gnome [09:17] gnome looks les fancy but it gets te job done [09:17] gnome is stable but slow and sucks resources, xfce is awesome but not for beginners [09:17] perhaps yr rite [09:17] I used both of KDE and Gnome desktop [09:17] KDE 4.2 rox [09:17] kalidar: I grabbed a computer, wiped it, and gave a user the computer, a Windows install CD, a copy of The Sims 2, and a DVD once. They didn't get it working from scratch either. Setting up multimedia from scratch is hard on Windows and Linux ;) [09:17] <_Whipper> kalidar: or E17 :) [09:17] at least gnome isn't as bad as kde for using resources and being slow... [09:18] kalidar: I'd like to help you, but please stay topic, see: [09:18] miranda_psi: true, i wouldn't be able to stand that [09:18] !ot [09:18] #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics. Thanks! [09:18] yeah yr rite i guess but atleast windows you can download the codec lol [09:18] Any firefox 3.1 user here? [09:18] yes ofcorse im sorry guys [09:18] kalidar: You can on Ubuntu too ;) [09:18] im just venting some rage is all lol [09:18] linux can be very frustrateing for beguinners [09:18] kalidar: and if you can't, that's the codec creators' fault, not ours. [09:18] wich is probs why many dont make the conversion but i wont give up i like it to much :) [09:18] im just adjitated [09:18] <_Whipper> !lol [09:18] Please don't use "LOL" and "OMG" and so forth on a regular basis. This is IRC, not IM, and using those lines on their own is not required, and it is rather annoying to the rest of the people in the channel; thanks. [09:19] thanks guys peace ;) [09:19] good luck kalidar [09:19] Well, nobody offered any advice, but I just stumbled on the answer myself just poking around. The problem: the sound on video playback/editing is delayed from the video. The answer: PulseAudio. Changing the prefrences-->sound-->devices-->sound playback for Movies to ALSA rather than Autodetect fixed the issue. [09:19] raevol: though my gnome right now (desktop comp) is running really slow, but I think that has to do with half the RAM dying... :'( [09:19] ouch :( let's #ubuntu-offtopic i guess [09:19] seems like if the beta is coming to the servers shortly https://wiki.ubuntu.com/JauntyJackalope/TechnicalOverview [09:20] thorre: Jaunty discussion in #ubuntu+1, please, not here. [09:20] gnu-dio1: nice info, I once spend a half night to find out it was the dam... medium (corrupt file) [09:21] Is there a word that distinguishes between a terminal under gnome and the real the terminal I go to with ctrl-alt-f1. Or are they both just called terminals? [09:21] can someone help me setup a bluetooth headset to be used for totem and firefox? [09:21] sorry [09:22] SmokeyD: ctrl+alt+f1 is a VT (virtual terminal), whilst gnome-terminal is just a terminal I think [09:22] right now i am trying to just detect the device... btw i am using ubuntu 8.10 [09:22] l [09:22] ziroday: ok, thanks. I am trying to get my language right in the bug report [09:23] Now I'm almost 100% free of M$! Woot! All I have left to do is to get a camera that has working linux drivers! (all 3 cameras I already have have issues in linux). The only thing left that I do in windows now is to capture video from a camera! [09:23] SmokeyD: one is GUI terminal the other is command line terminal [09:23] gnu-dio1: nice info, I once spend a half night to find out it was the dam... medium (corrupt file [09:23] HammerHead66: ok, thanks [09:23] gnu-dio1: driver installed already ? [09:24] What's the terminal command to stop a service from running at startup? I think it starts with update-something or other... [09:24] rww: update-rc.d [09:24] rww: update-rc.d remove [09:25] rww: also mght use BUM, it also determines needed from unneeded services [09:25] !BUM [09:25] Boot options: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootOptions - To add/remove startup services, you can use the package 'bum', or update-rc.d - To add your own startup scripts, use /etc/rc.local - See also !grub and !dualboot - Making a boot floppy: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto/BootFloppy - Also see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SmartBootManagerHowto [09:25] Hi .. I've set up a command-line PPTP VPN connection and it works when I do "pppd call myvpn"... but how can I configure it so that a static route is added when the vpn is connected? [09:25] DasEi: I said "terminal". BUM is a graphical program afaik. [09:25] SmokeyD: "sudo update-rc.d remove SERVICENAME" gives the output "update-rc.d: /etc/init.d/remove: file does not exist". I thought it was update-rc.d, and read the man page, but it's being difficult :/ [09:26] rww: sorry update-rc.d remove [09:27] SmokeyD: and switching remove and the service name gives an error about /etc/init.d/SERVICENAME existing (and says to use -f to force). Should I do update-rc.d -f remove? [09:27] can someone help me setup a bluetooth headset to be used for totem and firefox? right now i am trying to just detect the device... btw i am using ubuntu 8.10 [09:27] rww: yeah, it should. that is because the init.d script still exists, it warns you. Add the -f to force the removal of the autostart [09:27] rww: this or remove the script first [09:28] rww: you can still start the service manually with /etc/init.d/ start, but it't won't be autostarted or autostopped/ [09:29] DasEi: removing an /etc/init.d/ script provided by a package seems non-optimal. [09:29] SmokeyD, DasEi: anyways, update-rc.d's manpage just pointed me at sysv-rc-conf, which seems to be more rww-friendly. [09:29] :) [09:29] rww: :) could [09:30] I have recently tried to get my USB digital-TV work and while doing that I broke something. On this boot up loading got stuck at v4l-dvb for quite a while and finally after it failed I got my PC back up. Now trying to install build-essential I got "dpkg: error processing v4l-dvb-dkms" [09:31] DasEl: Yes, the best one, I actually hacked and compiled a new kernel module driver, and it works, but it has color issues. There aren't any drivers at all for the other two cameras I have. The solution is to just buy a camera with solid linux drivers, there are plenty of them out there. === Draglor is now known as Draglor|off [09:32] gnu-dio1: I recently had the same problem, there was this tool... don't remember the name, I compiled it and it found the cam and the right driver.. shall I look ? [09:34] https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EasyCam [09:34] DasEi: It's probably a waste of your time. I put a lot of time into it already. Heh, and I've definately messed with EasyCam already. There really aren't working drivers for the cameras I have. [09:35] ubtuntu and linux in general is such a nice dev enviornment [09:35] sooooo much nicer than windows [09:36] gnu-dio1:xatv is nice tool to just check the function [09:36] Ubuntu plays all the games I want, including the start trek games i bought at wal-mart [09:37] lol [09:39] i'm running a linux kernel on uml. I need a minimal ubuntu system for the kernel to load up. How can I build such a system on ubuntu? [09:39] !minimal [09:39] 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/MinimalCD [09:39] hey all [09:40] lowlycoder: from that you can choose just the cmd-line by not choosing any soft at installation [09:40] how do I get the name of my current debian distro? [09:40] !version [09:40] To find out what version of Ubuntu you have, type « lsb_release -a » in a !shell - To know the available version of a package, « apt-cache policy » [09:40] can any one tell me how to remote login in linux machine (which is not in my network). Just like the team viewer in case of windows >> [09:40] DasEi: thans [09:41] np [09:41] I#m off soon, look at : [09:41] !ssh [09:41] SSH is the Secure SHell protocol.

[09:48] VNC i already tried but its not working for outsite my network [09:48] hi, could anyone help me with nautilus-actions? [09:48] Rishab: then set up port forwarding correctly. [09:48] Rishab: u can ssh to any machine in the world, so long as u have a valid login on that machine [09:49] rww What xactly that means [09:49] re: I am not able to access my audio properties - please see consul results and explain :- http://paste.ubuntu.com/138107/ [09:49] Rishab: but it sounds like your looking for a remote desktop. haven't used that myself, so i can't help. [09:49] dayo: not really.. conenct o any machine that is reacabale from your network [09:49] Rishab: apart from a ssh tunnel I don't think it's a good idea to rdesktop or sth outside a protected lan [09:49] dayo but from Windos machine to linux na [09:49] does anyone know how to install nautilus-actions?

[09:53] frybye: gtk+ has a "nice" way of spilling (most often out of context) strange looking warnings [09:53] frybye: are you sure it's not hidden in upper right corner? [09:54] reisi - eh...? how to find? [09:54] DasEi I don't need help configuring the actions, I install the app but it wont appear in preferences, it's as if it was never installed. Do you understand what i mean? [09:55] frybye: i mean the "system tray" [09:55] osval : sure, but as I said I have no experience with it [09:55] down at the bottom of the screen a tab appears for a few seconds "audio is being started.." then it disappears and nothing happens... [09:55] DasEi oh ok! no problem [09:56] frybye: as a non-gnome user cannot help you further; strange is that it doesn't seem to crash [09:56] frybye: lspci finds your audio / syslog has no error / alsamixer installed ? [09:57] DasEi i found it, it's in system>>> preferences :) not in nautilus [09:57] xd [09:57] I think i need to check that the pulse audio is addressing the right device - whats the name of that package pulse-device-selector or..? [09:58] frybye: if you can't find it in settings, try alsamixer, it also offers pulse as an option; which s-card ? [09:59] i see pulse audio device chooser is installed - what exactly would be the command to call it up...? [09:59] ok i have it... [10:01] Pulseaudio device chooser shows as a tab at the bottom of the screen for a few seconds - and that too then dissapears with no trace??? [10:01] Hm, has someone an idea why wireshark works as expected, but tcpdump -i eth0 has no results for me? [10:01] oh jeez - just noticed I am in the wrong # here.. [10:01] see you... [10:02] gorusw: tried without -i ? [10:02] frybye: saw you before.. :P [10:03] right.. of course if folks here happy to help I dont complain... [10:03] gorusw: does this give you an output ? [10:03] frybye: lspci finds your audio / syslog has no error / alsamixer installed ? [10:03] dont understand all that?? [10:03] DasEi: No, I dont result any output (Also no output executing tcpdump without options) [10:04] I was able to run alsamixer but the appl-add-and-delete shows it is not installed...? [10:04] frybye: type lspci in trml, search your audio-card [10:04] gorusw: ifconfig lists eth0 active ? [10:05] frybye: if you can find it, check /var/log/syslog by searching for audio, look for (driver) errors [10:05] Creative Labs CA106 Soundblaster [10:06] right - how do I do that checking+searching?? [10:06] DasEi: Yes, this interface works fine. And there is no problem using wireshark with eth0. I have no idea. [10:08] there is a gui-appl for running the log checks right - eh...? [10:08] frybye: gedit /var/log/syslog , then use search function (or instead of audio creative) [10:08] right.. thanks.. [10:10] frybye: I just looked up creative's HP, and I remember that it wa hard to impossible to get X_Fi to work; though alsa started writing a driver, checking ... [10:11] 11.544395] usbcore: registered new interface driver snd-usb-audio <---is in the syslog - i sorta think the logitech webcam-microphone is switched with the soundblaster.. [10:11] this worked fine in 8.10 - which is a bit dumb to say here perhaps but... [10:13] DasEi: please see: http://paste.ubuntu.com/138122/ [10:13] frybye: why dumb ? it's the latest alpha of ubuntu [10:14] DasEi: Jaunty discussion belongs in #ubuntu+1, not here, hence frybye's comment. [10:15] no - I just mean that after I decide to risk trying the (thought it was the beta - not alpha this morning-) beta its my own fault so no point going on about "it worked in intrepid!" [10:15] ah , Jaunty, it's a general x-fi (creative) problem since they are out , 8.04 so [10:15] DasEi: but as I say it worked fine up till upgrade to jaunty... [10:16] getting no responses with this just now in #ubuntu+1 though... [10:16] hi. im installing an apache server for a test of moodle, an elearning plattform. The how-to tells me to to install libapache2-mod-security. But apt cant find it. On google i found that the package was removed. Is there a successor or can i just let it out? [10:17] but some of this stuff is for sure legacy-relevant.. so not that far ot in here I guess... [10:17] what is the 'best' password generator for command line? [10:17] frybye: the x-fi was driver-related === sean is now known as Guest96176 [10:18] ok but this is a audigy-se or whatever - not even x-fi [10:18] frybye: can you figure out an exacter model name ? can't find 106, but there are newer drivers [10:18] frybye: sudo apt-get install hwinfo [10:18] audigy-se i guess..

[10:23] what is the easiest way to install multiple versions of python? [10:24] hi I need to run a command at boot up, what file do I have to write it into? [10:24] iElectric: you got a longish desk there or a short one..? ;=) [10:24] frybye: is it a usb device ??

[10:28] frybye: check that out, modprobe the named module, install alsamixer-gui and write the module to /etc/modules after first loading it with modprobe, so it auto-loads at next startup [10:28] DasEi: ok I go and study that for a while.. hehe [10:28] frybye: easier candidate [10:28] eh can you say that in plain language.. "write the module to??" [10:28] anyone know if you can connect to skype with other linux clients? [10:29] DasEi: sorry - but can you give me that step-by-step?? [10:29] DasEi there is a "exit 0" in rc.local does it need to be changed to something, when I add "sudo vgchange -ay daten"? Does it need to be the last command?

It doesn't exist anymore and now I'm getting some strange errors when restarting network interfaces.http://pastebin.com/d7694979c [11:01] then the other entries are IEC958 - c and then next to it -f and then -r etc.. but the one that is just iec958 has no grafic volume indicator above it..

[11:05] evelyette: I presume it was phased out, it was last seen in dapper [11:05] frybye: http://www.alsa-project.org/main/index.php/Matrix:Module-ca0106 read the modules.conf section [11:06] [Ubuntu 8.04.2] Program 'Search for Files' cannot call a pager to display the contents of /etc/init.d/udev/ .

[11:06] ziroday, so how to enable ssl now ? [11:06] Sarmisak - I basically want to know how to mount my NAS drive at startup. I have followed online guides, and it doesn;t mount at startup.

[11:12] Marquis-Boy: while auto mounting it does not usually wait for NetBIOS names enough, then it timeouts === Cueball|2 is now known as Cueball [11:12] Marquis-Boy: so it could be simpler to use directly IP address instead of the NetBIOS name [11:12] Sarmiska: well - when i run the mount -a it sort of works - it finds the nas ok. But the access to it is a bit iffy. And it doesn;t run at startup [11:12] #pidgin [11:13] Sarmisak - ok - i will try witht he IP instead of NETBIOS name. [11:13] Be back shortly [11:13] Marquis-Boy: while linux cares about case, shares are not case sensitive [11:14] yeah, i figured that out eventually. :) Will try a restart now [11:15] in runtu sound doesn't work. what can i do [11:16] volk0079: are you on a Dell Mini 9?

I use the vfat for storage but recently it seems all the premissions and ownership have changed themselves to root now i cant move delete or add anything to that partition. I tried chmod and chown but it keeps sayting i dont have proper premissions to do that.I even logged in as root in another shell but i still cant change the owner [11:23] snooser: you got an ip? [11:23] fiftyone: vfat has no permissions [11:23] iceroot: no, its the OS! [11:23] fiftyone: the problem is the user who is mounting the device [11:23] iceroot: yea, i got a local IP [11:24] snooser: what is ping ubuntu.com telling? [11:24] ikona i dont understand. It worked fine for months i was able to read and write and do whatever i liked now i can read only [11:24] fiftyone: because it is not being mounted with user permissions [11:24] iceroot: nope, does not ping anything on the internet [11:24] fiftyone: root is mounting it as root, so as vfat doesn't actually support permissions only root can access it [11:24] iceroot: but i'm reading about my wifi card [11:25] sarmisak - no joy. the nas was not mounted. I wonder if it's because I'm connected wirlessly using Wicd instead of the default network manager [11:25] snooser: and what is ping 78.46.202.4 telling? [11:25] ahhh i see, i recently made it automount in fstab i must have made some mistake there... [11:25] iceroot: and it seems that has some problems with linux [11:25] Ikonia I understand [11:25] iceroot: nothing [11:25] snooser: then your hardware is the bug [11:25] snooser: driver and so on [11:25] ikiona i understand, what can I add to fstab to get it to mount as my user acct and not root? [11:26] iceroot: once again, its the OS. my card works well in windows [11:26] snooser: its the driver, not the os [11:26] the driver is correct [11:26] iwconfig wlan0 rate 5.5M fixed [11:26] i think this is it [11:26] will try [11:27] hello guys, talking about driver, i forgot to ask, is creative x-fi extreme music available for ubuntu?

[13:06] got it === sniper is now known as Guest31877 [13:06] Rodrigo_Lopes, i'm not quite i understood that correctly, but "sudo: /usr/sbin/alsaconf" gives command not found. also that alsaconf directory does not exist in /usr/sbin [13:06] ruthgard: I solved it by removing pulseaudio [13:07] cousin_luigi, Oh? so I dont need it? I thought it was spawned automatically after I killed it [13:07] Glutton_, Rodrigo_Lopes: alsaconf is not available nor needed on Ubuntu. See asoundconf instead. [13:08] I see now that it doesn't run [13:08] ruthgard: apps will fall back to alsa [13:08] I just removed the whole pachage [13:08] package* [13:09] ok rodrigo_lopes: I installed kdebase-bin: via sudo apt-get install kdebase-bin [13:09] cousin_luigi, Aha, interesting. Have you got any idea on why pulseaudio is used in the first place? Or maby I should consult google [13:09] maginot are ya here [13:09] starting ubuntu, it will start to the login screen. Then, neither mouse nor keyboard will work. Restarting dbus (reloading does not help) on another terminal, mouse and keyboard on the login screen will work again (It's a restart of dbus, it's running before as well). When logged in, the lan device does not seem to exists though, only localhost. [13:09] I'm still getting the kdebase-bin [13:09] im trying to figure why i have /usr/sbin/apache2ctl but yet apt-get remove says its not installed? [13:09] ruthgard: it deals with concurrent use of the audio card [13:09] in certain situations [13:10] ok rodrigo_lopes: I installed kdebase-bin: via sudo apt-get install kdebase-bin - I'm still get the "drkonqi executable not found" [13:10] ruthgard: but performance degrades too much with it on my machine [13:10] hi [13:10] hi all [13:10] is there a way to exclude certain files from a tar restore? [13:10] i have 2.2.27-11 server [13:10] Pici, Rodrigo_Lopes: ok, asoundconf list gives only "names of available sound cards:" but there is nothing on the list [13:10] i installed ubuntu destkop [13:10] then how to switch to desktop? [13:10] cousin_luigi, ah ok, something to do with multiple "voices" or is that the hardware support for what this does in software? [13:10] ratbert, yep [13:10] wanna_learn_more: why install server if you want a desktop? [13:11] ruthgard: perhaps; I don't know enough about it to give a reliable answer [13:11] action:i just want to try [13:11] ruthgard: you might find yourself with mute apps without PA, though [13:11] cousin_luigi, thank you very much for your input tho!

[16:57] Jayjax, what error [16:57] Jayjax: oh, what is the error?? [16:57] E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem [16:57] hwilde, have you made it to be static in /etc/network/interfaces? [16:58] Jayjax: just run that in the terminal [16:58] Jayjax, then run it :P [16:58] dhruvasagar: can you give me a minute or two please, just doing something [16:58] thats it?

[16:58] ikonia: no problem at all [16:58] oh im getting errors whenever I add third party sources too [16:58] Jayjax: yep that's it, it will correct the problems [16:59] anyone knows why doesn't apt just call dpkg with that parameter, when it suffices? [16:59] hwilde, yes, the last time i configured it for my friend it was there, 8.10 [16:59] I mean, in the cases where dpkg --configure -a solves it, couldn't it be done automatically? [17:00] philsf: I think it can't call it while being running itself, since it locks it [17:00] because it prints messages that you need to see. [17:00] hiii peeps [17:00] dhruvasagar: but apt calls dpkg several times during normal usage [17:01] at least once per package configuration, once per package installation and once for removal [17:01] When I type in sudo dpkg --configure -a it just give me a blank line in the terminal [17:01] philsf: you are right, perhaps because that particular command required some user input...I am not very sure though [17:01] Need help with my kubuntu. Need to get onto the internet if anyone can pm me and walk me thriough the steps i would be most thankful. I am using kubuntu only on my other machine and need to get connected i have a talktalk disk if thats any help @_< [17:01] philsf: just thinking there must be some reason :) [17:02] gooy: how are you planning to connect to the internet? === LjL changed the topic of #ubuntu to: Official Ubuntu Support Channel | Be patient and read https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FAQ | Support options: http://www.ubuntu.com/support | IRC info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC | Pastes to http://paste.ubuntu.com | Install Ubuntu: http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/download [17:02] gooy: wifi? lan?

[17:32] florin_, webcam dont work there [17:32] starting ubuntu, it will start to the login screen. Then, neither mouse nor keyboard will work.

[17:35] dhruvasagar: kdm is just the kde version of gdm, but you can still use it to log into gnome just as you can use gdm to log into kde. network not working does pose a problem for reinstalling or installing kdm... (maybe download the packages needed manually and put them on a usb drive...) [17:35] tekteen: where is my problem> [17:35] dhruvasagar: it's a little harder if you use a liveCD, since you'll need to chroot first [17:35] philsf, dhruvasagar, I added jaunty link to the sources to get the latest of that and that's just about it [17:36] miranda_psi: I know that, as I said I am not a fan of kde or kde apps [17:36] E: Could not get lock /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (11 Resource temporarily unavailable) === Yoda is now known as Guest22941 [17:36] philsf, dhruvasagar, there is the prob [17:36] but you'll have a nice brown desktop around your terminal instead of a black TUI :) [17:36] Hello supporters [17:36] tekteen: hmm well after I added the link in the sources and installed twitux, I disabled it again [17:36] I need some help.

[17:54] i changed chmod u-rwx xxx.txt [17:54] How do I restart the sound server? [17:54] JohnCane: well alright, do you see a wlan tab??

[17:55] i mean on windows? [17:55] HammerHead66: I'm not sure I'm understanding correctly then.. some places explain that the drivers are already there and some tell you how to install it. and then none of them actually talk about that error except that link you've found ... [17:55] glickinator: why would it work on windows?? [17:55] florin_: Depending on the permissions, usually only the owner is allowed to chmod a file [17:55] HammerHead66: not really. should i [17:56] JohnCane: is your wireless enabled? [17:56] JohnCane: most laptops have a separate button to enable/disable wireless adapter [17:56] dhruvasagar, simple, so you can use one of your friends computers with internet to download software and upgrades you want [17:56] Can anybody point me to where I might find some information for troubleshooting suspend/resume issues in Jaunty on a Mini 9? [17:56] HammerHead66: then again there's no one there :P [17:56] genii, but i am the owner,but also can come at my desk and open that file [17:56] ?

[17:58] genii,i am only a ubuntu user,no window miachine [17:58] dhruvasagar: year i thought so also :( [17:58] JohnCane: well anyways I think then this can help you perhaps https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/WiFiHowTo [17:58] HammerHead66: What I'm actually trying to install is a driver for my intel wireless card (the driver requires this mac80211 package, too) [17:58] florin_: Since you own the file, you can always read or modify it no matter the settings [17:58] florin_: perms work on an online system. if you need offline protection, you need encryption [17:58] philsf,i hope yes..i hope i understand,i think file permision mean i can choose who can open or excute a file on my notebook [17:58] !gnupg | florin_ [17:58] Sorry, I don't know anything about gnupg [17:58] dhruvasagar: Okay ill try it , thanks for your help !!

[18:00] philsf,i see. [18:00] hi guys .... how much can 100Mbps can really transmit ? [18:00] florin_: file permissions will protect your file from other users logged into that system, and that's it [18:01] florin_: that excludes users with sudo access, and root ftm [18:01] can someone give me a hand? I'm having some trouble installing a new theme: http://www.beryl-themes.org/content/show.php/Yakano+-Colors-?content=95885 [18:01] so installing freenx on a server edition machine adds 500MB of stuff (since I guess noX, gnome, etc). sound right? [18:01] i have a fresh 8.10 install, and i've never used linux before [18:02] Mba7eth: usually you divide by 8 [18:02] Mba7eth: The bottleneck becomes for instance things like how fast something can come off your hd before it can actually get to be sent over a 100Mbps connection [18:02] how can i make linux rescue to make my boot (because i had instaled xp and the bot to f10 has been deleted) [18:02] and i have at me only a kiwi (ununtu ) cd [18:02] Mba7eth: actually I divide by 9-10 because there's overhead, etc [18:03] philsf,i understand now,so on my comuter are many users if here are 2 users,i can restrict permision for other user,and the other one logg in in same machine [18:03] Giant81: If i have a direct ethernet cable between two PC .... shall i just get 100/8 ?

[18:05] philsf,yes i see [18:05] philsf,i feel litte bit smart from now :) [18:06] florin_: the only way to protect files you can't restrict physically, is by encrypting them [18:06] Does anyone know how to install mac80211 ?

[19:08] bin1010: it depends on where the bookmark points to [19:08] do I have to fstab the "bookmark" before I can get to it in my terminal [19:09] usually points to samba shares and other various linux boxes in the department [19:09] so i found something that recovers files .. thanks all [19:09] dylanmcd: locally or remotely? [19:10] its ulimtate boot cd version v5.0 [19:11] Hi there. I recently stole an internal card reader from one of our old computers and installed it in my desktop. I'm testing it with a 1 Gig SD card I found somewhere around the house. I was hoping someone could tell me why my computer (Ubuntu Gutsy Gibbon) isn't picking up the SD card. [19:11] fenris: Apologies on lag. Run sudo pppconfig and change it that way, your pppoe setup should be in there if it uses pon [19:11] philsf: I want to edit the file locally [19:11] philsf: is that what you were asking...not sure if i answered your question [19:12] philsf: For example, I'd like to open up an apache config file for editing on my local machine [19:12] Jason2gs: are you using an old motherboard? [19:12] hello [19:12] bin1010: what do you mean to fstab the bookmark? [19:12] philsf i set them up in the places "connect to server" and I gave them a bookmark...so they show up in "file browser" [19:12] HammerHead66, nope. [19:12] dylanmcd: then it's remotely that you need root access [19:13] philsf i am wondering if I have to make them a permanent mount point in fstab [19:13] genii: what i am wondering about is that it works with "pon dsl-provider", but not on boot time (where, i suppose, /etc/ppp/ppp_on_boot is executed), so i dont think its a problem with the pppoe configuration [19:13] Jason2gs: what pci slot do you have it on? [19:13] question [19:13] i don't have no sound on my ubuntu [19:13] dylanmcd: it's nasty, you will need to enable root login, afaik [19:13] philsf: I know, but since it's an ubuntu server, I can't log in as root [19:13] my sound card name is from Realtek [19:13] philsf instead of using the "file browser" bookmark [19:13] philsf: Damn, there has got to be a better way >.< [19:13] fenris: It doesn't work on boot time because eth0 or whatever has to come up and be useful before you can use it for a ppp connection [19:14] dylanmcd: you just need to set a root password [19:14] bin1010: are you talking about samba shares? [19:14] genii: the connection is brought up correctly, only the dns are not added to resolv.conf [19:14] bin1010: or local dirs? [19:14] philsf: I could do that, but the majority of my work I need to be logged in as the user...I'll keep looking [19:14] philsf samba shares [19:14] HammerHead66, It's not a PCI slot card reader. I installed it in the 3.5" bay. [19:14] I don't have a floppy drive. [19:15] bin1010: can I assume they are already mounted by the time you reach the terminal? [19:15] genii: http://rafb.net/p/tGkvj393.html <-- this is my /etc/ppp/peers/dsl-provider [19:15] yes [19:15] fenris: Then as I said, use sudo pppconfig and doublecheck that dns is set to dynamic, also that defaultroute is on. If it isn't your other lan connection is the default, and it's dns is used instead [19:15] philsf they are showing up as icon on the desktop [19:15] bin1010: then check out the contents of your .gvfs dir [19:15] in your homedir [19:16] okay...thanks [19:16] Jason2gs: I have no clue. [19:16] sweet!!! thanks [19:16] i knew there had to be a way to them ;) [19:17] dylanmcd: why doesn't that solve it for you? [19:17] someone help please - why is nlockmgr not loading on my machine?!?! [19:17] does the normal user and root use the same environment variable set? [19:17] hi guys [19:17] i can't use "sudo export" to check [19:17] yao_ziyuan: no [19:17] so intel and amd processor needs differant versions of ubuntu? [19:18] philsf: how to see/modify root's environment variables? [19:18] thrillERboy: No. [19:18]  thrillERboy: it just depends on the CPU not the name brand [19:18] thrillERboy: AMD64 is for the AMD 64 bit specification that most 64bit compatible cpus use. [19:18] hello [19:18] i don't have sound [19:18] my sound card is realtek [19:19] yao_ziyuan: it depends on how do you use the root account. sudo? su? su -? login? [19:19] sux? [19:19] is it anyway a solution? [19:19] philsf: sudo [19:19] oh okey.... I just installed 8.1 i386 on my friends amd using wubi === john is now known as Guest66009 [19:20] it took lil long than usual... so just came to clear things..... [19:20] yao_ziyuan: not sure, but I think with sudo you are using *your* account with root privs, so it's not really root === j_ack_ is now known as j_ack [19:20] yao_ziyuan: if that's right, you shouldn't need to do anything special, since you're using your own env [19:20] philsf: Well, I'm a newb, but from what I know, enabling root is against Ubuntu's best practices. [19:20] also os designed for x86 architechture should work in x64 processors quite good. Isn't it? [19:21] dylanmcd: ubuntu is also free software, so you do whatever you like [19:21] hi all. to Nvidia users that use proprietary drivers: what works best for you - the drivers you install through ubuntu, or the ones you download from nvidia.com? [19:21] philsf: In addition, it would require me to have to separate mounted drive, which doesn't flow well [19:21] dylanmcd: if you need it, you need it. do you really need it? :) [19:22] oobscure: depends on your card and motherboard chipset [19:22] thrillERboy: x86 is 32bit linux and X86_64 is 64bit linux [19:22] oobscure: what kind of card do you have? [19:22] Anyone know the name of a decent music editing software? I need to cut the end off an MP3 [19:22] dylanmcd: iiuic, you need to edit remote config files, right? why not just edit them via ssh to your ordinary account with sudo via command line? [19:22] rayne_: audacity [19:22] sera [19:22] scunizi, Thanks [19:23] yea... thanks HammerHead66. but, x86 linux should work fine in 64bit supported hardware? isn't it [19:23] oh, sure. i have a geforce 9600 GT 512mb RAM [19:23] !who [19:23] 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 :) [19:23] thrillERboy: yes both will work [19:23] okie thanks [19:23] thats what I wanted to know [19:23] I have a problem with my sound card [19:23] !list [19:23] This is not a file sharing channel (or network).

[19:24] PowerNRJ: no sound right? [19:24] yes [19:24] oobscure: I'm avoiding the 177 driver because it seems to have issues.. [19:24] I have no sound [19:24] please someone help me figure out why nlockmgr is not running on my machine?! [19:24] philsf: Yeah, that's what I'm going to do, but I would prefer a way to be able to keep everything in one editor [19:24] need some help with this error: configure: error: "Couldn't find working OpenSSL" [19:24] PowerNRJ: how about when you boot up is there sound then? [19:25] What is default cd ripper in ubuntu 8.10? [19:25] dylanmcd: oh, now I get it. sorry, out of ideas [19:25] philsf: It helps me streamline. I'm just switching my main workspace from Windows, so I'm trying to see all the stuff I wanted to do but couldn't on windows ;) [19:25] philsf: It's fine, thanks for you help and interest [19:25] hmmm no I haven't sound by starting Ubuntu, I have well sound by starting Windows ;) [19:25] qmr: default I think can be done with Rhythmbox but ripperx does a good job too.. it's in the repos.

[20:17] please help === g4lt-lappy is now known as g4lt-mordant [20:17] I downloaded it orginally from there but i am now reinstalling it thought apt-get and it downloaded a bunch of other packages also so hopefully that works [20:17] jophish, it's enabled [20:18] hello, i need help, I am trying to get my music on my sd card to work on my cell phone, i was told i need an encoder for the bizrate? I downloaded lame, but cant and dont know how to get it to work as I am new to ubantu,,,,,,but I have gotten this far I guess....can anyone please help [20:18] ladiegargar: I would personally not use the distribution packages for most security tools, I'd rather build/compile/install them myself. === lmr[lunch] is now known as lmr [20:19] hi, how to sync ubuntu with my htc diamond? [20:19] dimedo, strange, try posting on the forums [20:19] !info git-core [20:19] git-core (source: git-core): fast, scalable, distributed revision control system. In component main, is optional.

[20:20] it now says i need something called libcap so im getting that but im not sure thats going to solve my problem [20:20] for some reason, i cant access my windows partition [20:20] lucky you [20:20] thats a good thing [20:20] lol [20:21] I knew several people would say that, lol [20:21] doesn't sound like a good thing [20:21] whenever i download packages i always manually extract them is there a better way to do it? [20:21] ladiegargar: pv me [20:23] I tried looking it up on the internet but couldn't find anything, is there a way to resize my ubuntu partion or do i have to reinstall? [20:23] gnuparted will do it, B419kid [20:23] B419kid: you can download an ISO disc image you can burn and boot from, and it will let you resize the partitions. [20:24] B419kid, you could try this: [20:24] B419kid: of course and (g|qt)parted will do it, you need to have it unmounted of course [20:24] http://www.howtoforge.com/linux_resizing_ext3_partitions [20:24] Alright. Installed Ubuntu server. On first boot i got error: Unable to boot - please use a kernel appropriate for your CPU: pae [20:24] I'm pretty sure I used x32 [20:25] What did I do wrong :( === facedown_ is now known as facedownGRUMPY [20:25] hi, is the xterm version supplied by ubuntu compiled with 256color support? [20:25] Does anyone know if there is there an ath5k equivalent to the wlanconfig command? [20:25] PhotoJim: thanks, um do you have or link or will google do it and/ is there a way also to merge partions beause i think i have some free space not used [20:26]  Jespr: you didn't get 32bit linux you have the 64 bit linux [20:26] DAMNIT [20:26] ubuntu-8.10-server-i386 [20:27] B419kid: you can delete partitions and merge the space, depending on where it is on the disk. ultimately yes, possible. I don't have a URL but google will find it easily. [20:27] isnt that 32 bit? [20:27] ;) [20:27]  Jespr: I would go back and make sure you download from the Ubuntu site that way you know you are getting 32 bit linux [20:28] PhotoJim: Thanks. I got it but if i don't have a disc is there a way to do it on an operating system (mac or linux) or must i use a seperate bootable thing [20:28] Yeah... I did that the first time [20:28] But I'll try again [20:28] B419kid: you can do it on a running Linux system, it's just more dangerous. [20:28] B419kid: and I imagine it's possible to install it on a bootable USB flash drive. [20:28] PhotoJim: How much space? I don't have a very big usb at the moment [20:29] hey all, does anyone recommend a system stress-testing app? i always install "cpuburn" and max load all physical cores by running as many instances, but is there anything better? i'm used to prime95 and so on under Windows but i'm not sure if i should place my trust in cpuburn as definitely doing the job [20:29] B419kid: Honestly not sure... [20:29] it's true that it's providing me with four separate "100"s in "top" (as i have quad core) but i'm still open to alternative suggestions [20:30] can anyone help me please? [20:30] I believe you need a 4GB flash drive to install Ubuntu on it [20:30] this is me running them: http://img150.imageshack.us/img150/7534/cpuburn.png === ricky_ is now known as Guest70663 === Guest97880 is now known as trucMuche [20:31] honeybee0615, do you know what your phone supports? [20:31] PhotoJim: and dangerous? meaning lose of data possible? [20:31] Heimark: what about gnuparted's bootable CD? B419kid wants to resize his Ubuntu partitions. [20:31] bizrate? you mean or what type of player? I use to run windows and I would use windows media player, [20:31] B419kid: possible. not likely, but possible. far less likely if you boot from the parted CD. [20:31] salve [20:31] I got as far as being able to see the songs on the phone then it would freeze and say that there is an initialization error to try again [20:32] there is also a gnuparted usb version i believe [20:32] PhotoJim: Can i install it on my disk as a seperate partion? [20:32] is it mp3 honeybee0615 ? [20:32] then someone told me here yesterday that I need an encoder, I have been working on that since, downloaded lame, just dont know where its at or how to use it [20:32] yes mp3 the specs say the phone can play [20:32] B419kid: there's a channel on here about it. #parted ... and theoretically you could install a Linux system on a spare partition and resize the other partitions, but that's getting complex. [20:33] honeybee0615, did you run "sudo apt-get install lame" or similar? [20:33] yes [20:33] ok one moment please [20:35] PhotoJim: ill join the parted channel thanks [20:35] Reading package lists... Done [20:35] Building dependency tree [20:35] Reading state information... Done [20:35] lame is already the newest version. [20:35] 0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded. [20:35] honeybee0615: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. [20:35] opening a terminal and just typing "lame" will allow it to run honeybee0615 , as it's in the /usr/bin/ folder [20:35] sorry [20:35] so all you need to do is run the "help" feature and look about converting your song to a lower bitrate [20:35] no I tried just lame, it wont run, where is the /usr/bin/ folder? [20:35] B419kid: they could give you much more direction than I could I suspect. one option is to borrow an external CD or DVD drive though. they're pretty cheap. handy for installing OSes on netbooks too. :) [20:35] i have two md5sum files. how can i compare the two in cli? [20:35] typing lame in terminal tells me commands to use such as help etc [20:35] I really like unbuntu so far, but this is getting me agravatted [20:35] yep honeybee0615 so typing "lame --help" will help [20:36] no it just gives me more commands of none that wont open file [20:36] so help tells me "-b bitrate" is the switch for changing bitrate, then the format is "lame input.wav output.mp3" [20:36] PhotoJim: the parted channel is quiet, no one is responded [20:36] whats the command to start openssl [20:36] isnt it suppose to open software? [20:37] Does somebody know what is the difference between "root" and "rootnoverify" on menu.lst file ???? :| [20:37] B419kid: I didn't know how busy it was. but be patient, someone might eventually respond. [20:37] LAME is open software honeybee0615 yes [20:37] hi [20:37] PhotoJim: no i mean know one there is active: all afk/idle [20:37] hi [20:37] no I mean, when i command frostwire, it opens, shouldnt lame do that too? or is lame just a terminal command to encode? [20:38] where do i find the nautilus shortcut in the gnome menu? [20:38] MeXTuX: rootnoverify doesn't attempt to mount the partition, used for booting windows system where you have to unhide/activate the partition first [20:38] honeybee0615, lame has no gui [20:38] B419kid: be patient. often people show up hours later and see your question, and respond. [20:38] Ok. Tnx :) [20:38] lame's a CLI application honeybee0615 , most Windows apps are just GUI frontends to CLI apps (command line interface) [20:38] oh so I just read the options it gives me in the terminal and then do a command? [20:38] PhotoJim: with the traffic in this channel ? not much chance of that [20:39] where is 9.04 beta? [20:39] yep honeybee0615 [20:39] oh so i use lame through the terminal? [20:39] those are log readers that do that [20:39] honeybee0615, how in the hell did you manage to install linux ;) [20:39] adaptr: definitely true here. but I pointed him to #parted. quieter there. [20:39] sorry, i feel dumb and I am a chemist too [20:39] though i'm not sure if it takes an mp3 in as well as spits an mp3 out, you may have to convert the mp3 to WAV first [20:39] use songbird [20:39] no don't worry, don't feel that way, right now i have no idea how to use that LAME app either :) [20:39] um, so do I have to do each song seperatly or can i encode the entire say my_music folder? [20:39] but i would first try "lame -b 128 track.mp3 newtrack.mp3" [20:40] <^Stoopid_> what's the latest packaged version of xf86-video-intel available for 8.10? (doesn't have to be in the official repo. my version's crashing on me a few times a day, so i'm amenable to alternatives) [20:40] matt2909: #ubuntu+1 for jaunty [20:40] and do you know if this will work? or if there is something else I can try for my sd card with my verizon dare cell phone? [20:40] i'd recommend just demo'ing a single track until you can get it working honeybee0615 [20:40] I tried looking it up on the internet but couldn't find anything, is there a way to resize my ubuntu partion or do i have to reinstall? [20:40] i have been, but do you think it is the encoding that it wont play on my phone since they are beening seen on the phone? [20:40] definitely honeybee0615 [20:41] sounds like it's simply down to the more detailed makeup of the .mp3 [20:41] because I have found a 128 bitrate song and transfered, and it still didnt work [20:41] oh right [20:41] hmm [20:41] let me google a sec [20:41] anyone know of a way to separate 2 monitors when switching virtual desktops [20:41] like keep 1 the same all the time and just toggle the other one [20:41] B419kid: did you install using cd? [20:41] jenna^^1: install what? [20:42] wish i knew synacktion , as i'd like the cubes to be independant [20:42] i have tried converting to wav also [20:42] ubuntu [20:42] synacktion: only if you use separate X screens, which means you won't be able to move windows between them [20:42] just use the super ubuntu iso [20:42] its easier [20:42] crdlb, yea that's what i've found out... :\ [20:42] jenna^^1: yes i used a cd with a 8.10 ubuntu iso on it. [20:42] and you have the cd and a cd drive? [20:43] well i borrow from my friend but i can get it back [20:43] why> [20:43] jenna^^1: type "b419kid: " to send a message to me... the chat is going a little to fast i am unfortunatly a slow reader [20:44] what is that command you gave me? do I put in the song name in the first track, and just leave the newtrack as it states/ === desti_T2 is now known as desti [20:45] they'd be the name of the input file and the output file honeybee0615 [20:45] B419kid: the install cd has gparted, so just boot into that and use gparted to resize [20:45] for example, i'd first copy a track to my desktop [20:45] then i'd make sure i'm on my desktop in the terminal, by typing "cd ~/Desktop" [20:45] WHATS THE COMMAND TO START OPENSSL? [20:46] then i'd try "lame -b 128 track.mp3 newtrack.mp3" where "track" is the filename of the original and "newtrack" is the name of the file to create [20:46] but since you said 128 does not work already, it is probably a waste of time [20:46] so place the command as you said in terminal? [20:46] it doesnt do anything [20:46] says it can not find track === vito is now known as Guest21783 [20:46] jenna^^1: resize my existing ubuntu partion so if i have free space i can add it or i shorten my mac partion [20:46] hbx: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UsingTheTerminal [20:46] could please someone give me an advice how to get in contact with a package-maintainer (games). i've got an application which i would like to have a package for. but i'm uncertain if i should build a package on my own or better let a maintainer have a look on it [20:47] did you change to desktop first honeybee0615 ? === Guest21783 is now known as vito59 [20:47] is it any way to speed up the ati open source driver [20:47] daftykins: ask in #ubuntu-motu [20:47] what do you mean?

[20:47] using the terminal no shit its through the terminal [20:48] i got two files containing md5sum's, how can i compare the two? i know i can use "diff file1 file2" and manually check through it, but how can i get linux to check and just give me a report, saying if all are ok, or 2 no match, and then the filenames that dont match? any thoughts? :-) === ScottG is now known as ScottG489 [20:48] can not find track.mp3 === ScottG489 is now known as ScottG === calc_ is now known as calc [20:50] B419kid: that is doable from the ubuntu install cd, from http://gparted.sourceforge.net/liveusb.php [20:50] kristian2: uhm i'm not sure just what the difference between "diff" and what you said is [20:50] honeybee0615, your file is most likely not called track.mp3, i simply use that as a referral to the file name [20:50] ArcSighter1: thanks heading there now [20:51] you need to copy a track onto your desktop and rename it to that as a demo, or simply edit the command to refer to the real filename [20:51] i do i find file name? [20:51] jenna^^1: to resize and take space from other partions? [20:51] yes [20:51] honeybee0615: excuse the lame question but your working dir is the one with the track or you're at home ~ [20:51] B419kid: yup, it soes all of that [20:52] i already advised to type "cd ~/Desktop" ArcSighter1 , to honeybee0615 === Kaji_ is now known as KakaRoT-| [20:52] B419kid: were you saying that you were doing this off a netbook? and had no disk drive? [20:52] <_DEL> is there a command i can enter into terminal to find out what wireless driver i m using? [20:52] jenna^^1: do i need the ubuntu cd to do it, cause i borrowed it from a friend- is there a way to get gparted and boot it without cd? [20:52] the cd destop doesnt work [20:52] I am at home [20:53] Power Manager Preferences lets you choose an action for Power Button press. any thoughts on adding an option for double- or tripple-clicking the power button to do what Ctrl-Alt-Backspace does (which is now disabled by default) [20:53] in linux terminal you have to use: cd Desktop [20:53] says desktop is no file or directory [20:53] I need help..but...my inglish is not very good [20:53] Got 8.10 running on a dell netbook with an intel GMA 950 - realistically will it be able to run dual displays, with the external display at 1680x1050px? [20:53] just type "cd Desktop" then if it says "~" in the bash prompt inside terminal [20:53] daftykins: sorry, I wasn't following, but giving the facts I think it was logical question (coming from him), no offense [20:53] no problem ArcSighter1 :) [20:54] B419kid: no you don't HAVE to use the ubuntu cd to do it, you can just use the gparted live usb [20:54] <_DEL> lso to get to Destop: pushd ~/Desktop [20:54] #ubuntu [20:54] honeybee0615:  in linux terminal you have to use: cd Desktop [20:54] <|f|> In what package can I find the deb program?

The audio works but the mic does't work. [20:58] sorry [20:58] the problem with the intel drivers are they are constantly in flux, intel seems to drive all the Xorg dev work for new features and uses its driver as the test bed for those changes [20:58] where is the option for removing stuff without putting it in the Trash in gnome ? [20:58] kristian2: you need to sort them first, or they'd likely be in a different order [20:58] like I said I am ne [20:58] new [20:58] kristian2: use "sort" for that [20:58] I put the cd ~/Desktop in to terminal and it said no file or directory [20:58] cemc: There's an option in the Preferences window for GNOME File Browser. I'm not using GNOME right now, so I don't remember what exactly it's called [20:58] lmao [20:58] the intel drivers will probably be significantly better by the end of the year now that KMS is finally in a standard kernel [20:58] B419kid: gparted for usb should fit on a 256 flash drive [20:59] calc: KMS?

[21:02] B419kid: np [21:02] pwd says /home/honeybee----/ [21:02] Definitely - 8.10 was a breeze to install.

[21:03] Might be more down to the low power cpu, but flash doesn't work too great either [21:03] i see some problems with mp3 playback on the phone honeybee0615 [21:03] but only strange ones, it seems you're meant to put music on by using some windows software?

[21:14] kristian2: because you told it to find in "." (the current directory), and you also saved the file "list1.txt" in the same directory, so "find" found it. [21:14] |WolF1: why not just strip the splash altogether [21:15] <|WolF1> bruenig: i don't know what is that but please tell me how and i will do it :D [21:15] |WolF1: I mean, just have no graphic, you will get all of the text rolling by but you will be able to see some progress and such if that is your purpose [21:15] if gparted is going really slow, estimated 28 min remaining @ just started is that it or my internet? === Cueball|2 is now known as Cueball [21:16] B419kid: gparted doesn't use the internet of course [21:16] LjL : yes but i have to use "." because i need the dirs. but i could write list1.txt to another dir, would that be like this:? "find . -type f 2>/dev/null -exec md5sum {} \; >~/list1.txt"? [21:16] bruenig: wow, that's not the point i meant the download speed [21:16] bruenig: like file big or internet slow [21:16] <|WolF1> bruenig: i don't think i get you very well. my purpose is to fix my ubuntu desktop to can work on it, now is some twisted line grafics ... [21:17] kristian2: err, or you could just manually delete that line from list1.txt... [21:17] kristian2: also, if you're willing to do everything again from scratch, then just use md5deep [21:17] |WolF1: but the graphic problem is just the little boot graphic right?

[21:18] <|WolF1> bruenig: the problem starts since the login screen appears and further when i login too picture is twisted [21:18] bluenzo^nix: right-click another panel and click New Panel [21:18] |WolF1: oh I see, your initial question was unclear. You must have problems with your X configuration [21:18] |WolF1: not sure how ubuntu is dealing with that these days, you could edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf though [21:18] <_DEL> is there a room that i can go to to get help with kismet?

[21:23] less /var/log/dpkg.log [21:23] dwaynefortman, you have an upgrade olny cd? === scout_ is now known as Guest3174 [21:23] I over wrote everything by accident [21:23] <_DEL> dwanefortman, you need to reformat your drive to NTFS [21:24] guys, how do i install PEAR for php? i've read from their website that php 4.x+ has php application manager installed... does ubuntu ibex have? i want to install this... LAMP stack is already running on my machine [21:24] dwaynefortman: oh what you have is a recovery cd that utilizes a backup partition that you deleted [21:24] pymike: It's probably possible, but it can break things, and isn't supported in this channel. [21:24] With gparted? [21:24] dwaynefortman: you need a full recovery disk [21:24] burn the blasphemer _DEL [21:24] where will i get a full recovery disck [21:24] dwaynefortman: i.e. go get another windows install cd [21:24] rww: okay, thanks. hmm.

You'd have to speak to people who support Windows. [21:25] <|WolF1> bruenig: http://paste.ubuntu.com/138541/ here is the log from today [21:25] <_DEL> docid, ever since i deleted my window$ partition, i havent had as many probs with my computer [21:26] There's also ##windows... [21:26] hello. I'm wondering if anyone can help me split a folder up in terminal [21:26] What do you mean? Ubuntu support should know this, considering the fact that they put in the option USE ENTIRE disk. [21:26] |WolF1: what version are you using? how are you on 2.6.24 [21:26] I have a folder with nearly 70k images. Nautilus freezes when I try to open it. I'm trying to use terminal to split the folder into more manageable pieces [21:26] It over wrote the master boot sector [21:26] <|WolF1> bruenig: 8.04 [21:27] dwaynefortman: can you ask again your question in one line for me please? i'm getting a bit lost over the scattering [21:27] <_Whipper> dwaynefortman: who are you talking to? [21:27] _DEL, yeah, big surprise there...lol...i just read 'reformat as NTFS' and my heresy sense started buzzing [21:27] dwaynefortman: yep, that would be the entire disk. if you erase an existing installation including the rescue partition, you will have problems no matter what OS you installed. [21:27] ok [21:27] <|WolF1> bruenig: is it possible to roll back todays updates? [21:28] |WolF1: don't think so [21:28] |WolF1, is todays update nasty? i still have my lil red arrow floatin at the bottom of the screen [21:28] docid: he is using 8.04 [21:28] ohh [21:28] lol, doh [21:28] <|WolF1> lol [21:29] I installed Ubuntu 8.10 Over my windows partion. Now I can not install windows because it over wrote the partion and the master boot sector. NO windows D works because the boot sector was over written by GRub How do i install Windows over Ubuntu? [21:29] i keep getting ERROR: Unable to open rules file: ./snort.conf or ./snort.conf why? [21:29] LVM [21:29] <|WolF1> bruenig: how to load safe grafic mode ? [21:29] if in my network configurations and there is no wired connection while ethernet is in what does that mean? [21:29] TheFunkbomb: are the images already organized in some sort of fasion( date in name, or somthing similar)? [21:29] dwaynefortman: the Windows install disk doesn't care what is in the MBR or any partition. it should install fine. [21:30] dwaynefortman: when I installed Ubuntu on my desktop, grub put an entry for my install partition in the boot list, as well as an entry for the Windows partition. so if you haven't selected "use entire disk", you'd be ok. [21:30] jenna^^1, they're all labeled stuff like 000575860.png but there is no order to them [21:30] It says that the system is not compatiable [21:30] <|WolF1> dwaynefortman: grub gives you option to load windows [21:30] After i installed Ubuntu [21:30] u may need to format it === pcfreak30_ is now known as pcfreak30 [21:30] so its NTFS [21:30] dwaynefortman: then that's a problem with your Windows install disk. perhaps you have got a 64-bit Windows and a 32-bit system? [21:30] i did [21:30] windows is having that problem with me too...im not sure why [21:30] I installed it fin befor [21:30] dwaynefortman: anyway, it's a question for ##windows, as it's definitely a problem with Windows [21:31] windows installs fine when its by itself on a whole new disk...but if its on a partition and another OS occupies another partition...it doesnt wanna install [21:31] for me tho lol [21:31] Ya but Windows does not the Linux as much as linux does [21:31] Know* === mehteenager is now known as MrObvious [21:31] This question cant be ansered by Windows user [21:31] dwaynefortman: have you tried at all? [21:31] How do I setup ethernet on ubuntu? nothing showing up in wired tabe [21:32] I have on several foums but no luck yet [21:32] dwaynefortman: you may need to get install CDs from your computer manufacturer. either that, or find someone local that's experienced with dual booting, and see if they can help you. very difficult to fix over IRC. [21:32] hey, um i am having issues networking ubuntu and wincrap xp together for print and file sharing [21:32] dwaynefortman: this is not a Linux problem. if your Windows refuses to install because there's another OS installed (although that never happened to me), that's to do with the Windows installer logic. [21:32] ubuntu can see its own shares [21:32] i'm having a problem. i am using an install cd to install ubuntu 8.10 (done it prob. 75-100 times before) but this time with a new graphics card. the 9800gx2 and also a new hard drive the 7200.11 - but while the install is running if i open firefox or the computer goes to sleep i get a message saying that the display manager has failed 6 times in 90 secs [21:32] <|WolF1> bruenig: is it possible to put some safe grafic mode on installed ubuntu ? [21:32] I wish I could just use a command in terminal that says "Move 50mb from this folder to that folder" [21:32] but no win shares [21:33] so my question is why does this happen? i can't get thru a full install without it failing on me! [21:33] |WolF1: don't know, ask someone else. I really only answer GNU/Linux questions to be honest [21:33] I dont want to dual boot.............. I installed it OVER windows Windows likes to be the Primary Partion, but it isnt its knowwhere to be found Windows is compltly wiped from the system [21:33] TheFunkbomb: any sort of similarity could be used to split them up, but if there truly is no similarity, you could script it in a language like python [21:33] TheFunkbomb: if there were such a command, it would be deadly. moving files arbitrarily can cause a lot of damage. [21:33] pcfreak sudo apt-get smbfs [21:33] when i go to work groups on windows it says it can access it with bad permissions or something [21:33] done it [21:33] dwaynefortman: please, do ask in ##windows. [21:33] <|WolF1> well any one can tell me how to run safe grafics mode on installed ubuntu 8.04? [21:33] alright [21:33] <_Whipper> !windows [21:33] For discussion on Microsoft Windows, or help with same, please visit ##windows. See http://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+bug/1 http://linux.oneandoneis2.org/LNW.htm and /msg ubottu equivalents [21:33] thanx anyways [21:34] is there any special settig [21:34] TheFunkbomb: by folder I assume you mean directory, by move you mean what exactly? You recognize that the whole directory-file setup is just an abstraction layer. What you really have is inodes and a disk [21:34] rww: are you there? [21:34] jenna^^1, this is how it is. One file is called 000575800.png. The next one might be called 000576200.png [21:34] cause i have smbsf [21:34] bluenzo^nix: hi [21:34] rww: Is there a way to align-left or align-right my applet? Its centered [21:34] but they still dont see each other [21:34] bluenzo^nix: there's a little handle at the left side of it. right-click it, click Move, and put it where you want it [21:35] eh i dont see a handle just my xchat button lol [21:35] bluenzo: if it is html u mean then "align='left'" or right in the applet/embed tag [21:35] bluenzo^nix: Depending on your theme, it might be difficult to see. Try right-clicking just to the left of the applet. [21:35] So is there nothing I can do if I have an application compiled with libc5? [21:35] not html sorry [21:35] hi to all [21:36] is there at least anyway to batch move files? Like if I had 6 files. A,B,D,H,O and V.

They dropped support for the legacy set of drivers in 8.10 [21:37] Petengy: firefox 3.2 isn't in Synaptic, partially because it doesn't exist. [21:37] Barridus: you are totaly right. TnX a lot for helping [21:37] Can someone tell me the name of the applet that has the boxes for each desktop? [21:38] So is there anything I can do to run a program compiled with libc5? [21:38] j-b-r: that's crap :( [21:38] TheFunkbomb, you could put your file names into a text file and the aw them to the mv commans in a while loop.....but theres most likely a much easier way [21:38] Petengy, or go to system -> prefs -> main menu, then add a menu entry somewhere that runs the "firefox" command [21:38] TheFunkbomb, aw=awk [21:38] wired network says device is unmanaged- how do i get my ethernet to work? [21:38] rww: I'm just using it now .... [21:38] docid, yeah, that's greek to me lol [21:38] linxeh: Well, after I downgraded to use it, I saw how bad the card really is [21:38] then you'll have an icon in the menu for firefox, and then can right click it and add to panel, desktop, etc [21:38] Barridus: TnX again [21:38] :) [21:38] I can't do crap with it [21:38] yw :) [21:38] TheFunkbomb, whoops, thought i was still in #bash [21:39] I wanted comppiz and such [21:39] ok heres is the summary of my issue: have samba samba-doc and smbfs. ubuntu can see its self. wincrap can see it self. they cant see each other. when accessing on xp get work group access/permissions error. says contact the admin = me. ubuntu doent even show xp pc. btw this is a home network. on v. 8.10 [21:39] bluenzo^nix: Workspace something or other, I think?

[21:40] It didn't work [21:40] rww: how do i fix that?

And also when I open new project it says cant find server. Don't do that for windows [22:01] B419kid: The first two (the ones with lo in them) you need to keep. The rest (auto eth1 and below) you should add # to so it looks like http://paste.ubuntu.com/138562/ [22:01] B419kid: ( putting # there is like deleting the lines, except it's easier to add them back if you need to later) [22:01] I use netbeans 6.5 in windows to edit javascript files all I do is go to open>new file wizard>other>javascript and bam dont work on the one is repositories [22:01] LjL : um ok, i've installed it and looked at manpage and tried finding a good guide on google, but i can't see how i can do my task. :-( [22:01] LjL : i did this before asking again now.

[22:05] what is backpots [22:05] enndy: they'll need more info than "I have audio problem" [22:05] Jayjax: information on how to request a backport.

[22:08] Dries1: when i right click on desktop nothing related to art-manager or gnome-art [22:08] _dark__: no because resolvconf (the package, not the file) and perhaps also network-manager rewrite it [22:08] i downloaded the ubunto iso file and installed from that [22:08] Help: Update manager says i have a package [22:08] what do i do? [22:08] _dark__: you can set nameservers somewhere else, though... i think /etc/dhcp3/dhclient.conf [22:08] cain: Then you put in a username and password during setup.

[22:58] jado, Slart: Slart is right, unless you don't have an ssh server running on the remote machine (or it's on a non-standard port). [22:59] that is a font [22:59] Help! I clicked some lame option in Compiz-settings-manager and now ubuntu won't load the desktop. all i get are blue lines. I can get in the failsafe terminal though. can anyone help me? === Kissaki is now known as Kissaki^0ff [22:59] i do have a ssh server that i have just installed [22:59] when i try to add a printer via cups admin web interface, cups hangs on make/manufacturer screen. says waiting for server at bottom, then blank page after about 5 min [22:59] viator: I know, but it breaks my apt-get :/ [22:59] actually, i'm trying ssh username@ip but that asks me a password : Password: and i can't find it [22:59] how was it istalled by itself [22:59] !compiz | dries1 (check the compiz irc channel for more specific help) [22:59] dries1 (check the compiz irc channel for more specific help): Compiz (compositing window manager), for a howto see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompositeManager and more help #compiz-fusion [22:59] when i try ssh username@localhost that asks me a password and entering mine workd [22:59] jado why not just clarify things, what is the exact ip address so we can advise you correctly? [22:59] or within another packager [22:59] jado: telnet remotemachine 22 ... that will tell you if the ssh server is running. it'll reply with some messages. if it won't connect, your server isn't running. [22:59] package* [22:59] jado: have you tried the user password for the username you've got? [23:00] i didnt change anything but system does upgrade via apt automatically [23:00] Slart yes [23:00] heeeyyy [23:00] :D [23:00] viator: I think it was a dependancy of another package. [23:00] hello all [23:00] Gnea: i'n on 9.04 [23:00] is Jaunty alpha in code freeze? [23:00] jado: if it asks you for a password, then it's working. but you need to use the password. and if you're trying to log in as root, some ssh configs disable root login and it won't work. [23:00] !jaunty | corq-FL [23:00] corq-FL: Jaunty Jackalope is the codename for Ubuntu 9.04, due April 23rd, 2009 - Schedule in https://wiki.ubuntu.com/JauntyReleaseSchedule - Lots of breakage between now and April - Please join #ubuntu+1 for discussion and support. [23:00] irunongames: then you should ask in #ubuntu+1 [23:00] heh thanks [23:00] do you have any third party repos? [23:01] PhotoJim: what i'm trying to say is that it's not working the same if i do ssh username@ip or ssh username@localhost [23:01] or have you installed any non ubuntu packages [23:01] with localhost the password works whereas with ip it does not [23:01] My apt-get is broken because of the paquet "ttf-sazanami-gothic". I can't install, remove or upgrade now. What can I do :/ ? There's what it says : http://paste.ubuntu-fr-secours.org/src-12254 I tried apt-get -f install and to remove it, it does nothing. [23:01] janjud: why would you need the ip address ? [23:01] hi, after update from 8.04 to 8.10 my gnome is crashing afeter couple min. with flashing windows and in the end i get a message that x window system was restarted 6 times and sth sth.. anyone know a solution?

[23:01] please can someone help me with my installing problem? [23:02] thats where dependency problems come from alot of time [23:02] jado you are making it more difficult if you dont give full info, we have to ask you several more questions..so please provide clear info right away so no more asking back and forth [23:02] jado: it should. my ssh logins to local machines by IP or by name work identically. /msg me if you want further help from me, I'm going home now. will check in this evening. [23:02] istvan: just explain the problem, if someone knows they will probably answer you [23:02] thow is apt "broken" [23:02] grzes: try getting on a console and doing "mv /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.bak" [23:02] any way [23:02] viator: It doesn't look like a dependency problem. [23:02] For some reason, Ubuntu does not seem to detect wireless networks after installing the driver, however Kubuntu does it fine. Does anyone know why this would be? [23:03] how is apt "broken" [23:03] ? [23:03] my girlfriend's co-dependent. neither synaptec or apt could fix [23:03] those 43 apps my be for dist upgrade [23:03] greetings, pretty people [23:03] anyone know how to get sound in my flash plugin(youtube)? Amarok is working fine [23:04] Iceman_B: are you running pulseaudio? [23:04] do sudo apt-get update and then sudo apt-get dist-upgrade and see what happens [23:04] !who| viator [23:04] viator: 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 :) [23:04] <[Spooky]> blue112: Cant install that... [23:04] janjud: this info is correct and complete ; i'm on a local network which ip is x and my username is y ; i have tried to connect to my own ssh server (on my own computer) with ssh y@x mais that asks me a password that i cannot find ; i have also tried with ssh y@localhost or ssh y@mycomputername and with these commands that asks me a password which is the password for the username x [23:04] I don't think it could install anything viator, but i'm trying. [23:04] [Spooky]: Why ? [23:05] janjud: ask me if you need something else [23:05] Slart, no idea. when I rightclick the volume icon in the topright and hit properties, the device says "Sound Fusion CS46xx (Alsa Mixer)" [23:05] <[Spooky]> blue112: Wrong one it didnt find my tv-card... [23:05] Argh. [23:06] why is gs (printing) using up my cpu every day again by no reason? [23:06] jado try this instead ssh -l username x [23:06] Anyone happen to know anything about the "Window" that's mapped when you hit Ctrl (for locating the mouse)? [23:06] Slart, Amarok is playing using the XINE engine and the oss device [23:06] Iceman_B: there used to be a package you installed to get audio working.. libflash something.. not sure if that's still needed though [23:06] jado try this instead ssh -l username x or in your case ssh -l y x [23:07] jado but if you can not find your own password for the user y, umm login as root and change the password for user y [23:07] Slart, where can I find more info? [23:07] !flash [23:07] To install Flash see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/Flash (a recent version for !Dapper is available in !backports) - See also !Restricted and !Gnash [23:07] <[Spooky]> blue112: Vlc finds but dont have search... [23:08] janjud: actually the problem is that it's not the password for y that is asked when i enter your command [23:08] [Spooky]: Try kaffeine, or xawtv. [23:08] Iceman_B: not really sure... I haven't had any problems with flash in a long time.. you are using 8.10 ? [23:08] can't i specify somewhere the name of the machine on which i want to connect (as there are many machines on this ip) ? [23:08] jado well its not clear what you are asking for then, [23:08] viator: Same thing with dist-upgrade [23:08] My apt-get is broken because of the paquet "ttf-sazanami-gothic". I can't install, remove or upgrade now. What can I do :/ ? There's what it says : http://paste.ubuntu-fr-secours.org/src-12254 I tried apt-get -f install and to remove it, it does nothing. [23:09] jado: an ip is one machine.. if that machine chooses to send the packages to somewhere else that's another thing [23:09] Slart, yes [23:09] jado make sure the remote host has entries in either /etc/host or your nameresolver can resolv the remote hostname [23:09] I upgraded from 8.04 a few weeks ago [23:09] I tried to upgrade Pidgin by compiling it from pidgin.im but I'm having some resulting problems. Is anyone available to give advice? [23:09] Iceman_B: you could try downloading a 8.10 live cd and see if flash works there [23:09] jado thats why if you are only clear of your ip address, it gets much easier.. anyhow am off for now [23:09] Slart: janjud: my ip address on the internet is shared by the whole local network isn't it ? [23:10] jado see that, we have to make so many assumptions, you were not clear to begin with.. you are wasting our time [23:10] jado: nope.. an ip-address goes to one machine/device [23:10] by not providing clear info [23:10] Can anyone help ? I can't install anything, it's bad :/ [23:10] what is a good channel for cups+ubuntu support/help? [23:10] janjud: ok. sorry i wasted your time ; bye [23:10] jado: that machine/device might choose to pass the connection along.. but the ip still ends up at one machine.. or rather one network card [23:11] mogi22: I think is as good as it gets [23:11] Slart: there may be a confusion ; i was talking about the internet ip, not about the local ip [23:11] Slart, did u mean this is? [23:11] mogi22: yes. =) it's getting late here [23:11] Slart, no prob [23:11] jado: an internet ip and an local ip is the same thing.. [23:11] Is there a way to have set the bluetooth to defult off same with wireless ? [23:12] Slart: no it's not [23:12] if i go on whatismyip.com or something like that it will the same ip than the ip of the other persons of the network [23:12] jado: ok.. if you say so [23:12] while if i enter ifconfig it will give me my local ip [23:12] for some reason, this week my cups wont let me add new printers (hangs on make/manu screen) [23:12] jado: I'm not here to argue with you.. [23:12] My apt-get is broken because of the paquet "ttf-sazanami-gothic". I can't install, remove or upgrade now. What can I do :/ ? There's what it says : http://paste.ubuntu-fr-secours.org/src-12254 I tried apt-get -f install and to remove it, it does nothing. === Naaa is now known as Invisibelle [23:13] i've upped it to debug loglevel and no posts to logs [23:13] Slart: my internet ip (on www.whatismyip.com) is not the same as my local ip (on the network) with ifconfig -a ; and that's normal [23:13] jado: yes, If you're behind router or proxy or something like that [23:13] Slart, meh, I rather wait for 9.04 to be released and then install that from a live cd [23:14] not much going on in this machine atm [23:14] oCean_: yes i am ; since i'm a school network [23:14] jado: yes... that's a normal setup.. but a "local ip" and an "internet ip" is really the same thing when it comes down to networking [23:14] i'm in* [23:14] but still, not having sound in flash annoys me, since I am working in Ubuntu right now [23:14] so how does one fix pulse after installing a second audio card [23:14] jado: it works the same when using ssh and so on [23:14] Slart: oh yes that's what you meant [23:14] iĺl probaly boot back to XP soon [23:14] Slart: i thought you are saying there are *actually* the same (numbers) [23:15] so actually i have to enter ssh username@local_ip in order to connect to my computer ; [23:15] any official vmware images for 8.x? [23:15] but what if someone outside the network would like to connect to my computer, he couldn't use my local ip, could he ? [23:15] jado: you enter the ip number of the computer you want to connect to, it's that simple [23:16] <_DEL> when i start to compile a new proggy, i use './configure', that goes well, but when 'make', i get the error 'make: *** No targets specified and no makefile found. Stop.' am i doing something wrong? [23:16] Slart: yes, the local one :d [23:16] jado: does your computer have any other ip-numbers? [23:16] yes, the one you people see me on internet, the ip which is displayed on www.whatismyip.com [23:17] it's not the same ; it's masked by the router IP [23:17] jado: no no no.. you still don't get it.. the ip you see on whatismyip.com isn't for your computer [23:17] yes it's the router's [23:17] jado: indeed! [23:17] jado: indeed.. the routers ip.. not your computers ip.. [23:17] yes [23:17] ok [23:18] jado: so your actually trying to ssh into whatever machine (router, proxy) that has that 'internet' ip [23:18] hey all [23:18] ok [23:18] jado: so if you type ssh , what device/machine are you connecting to? [23:18] So, can anyone helps me with my apt problem ? [23:18] jado: your computer or your router? [23:18] router [23:18] blue112: Error Messages ? [23:18] so, if you try and ping the address ip i got with ifconfig -a ; that will work and ping my pc ? [23:19] anyone use rcp from a server to append files to a cisco router? [23:19] sorry, append config changes [23:19] AyBayBay: My apt-get is broken because of the paquet "ttf-sazanami-gothic". I can't install, remove or upgrade now. What can I do :/ ? There's what it says : http://paste.ubuntu-fr-secours.org/src-12254 I tried apt-get -f install and to remove it, it does nothing. [23:20] lol [23:20] btw, where did Compiz Fusion go ? [23:20] jado: probably not.. but here we come to something else.. some time in history someone decided that certain ip-ranges were to be used to local networks only.. 192.168.X.X is one such range.. 172.something.. is another [23:20] dont forget 10.x.x.x [23:20] jado: 10.X.X.X is a third.. [23:20] Hello I'm new using ubuntu.... I have to upgrade the alsa to a new version... I download the files... but I don't how can I upgrade ??? could i only put a line and the system do everything automatic ? [23:20] Iceman_B: got it =) [23:20] ok [23:20] list [23:20] aight =) [23:20] jado: you've probably got what you call a local ip in one of those ranges [23:20] is 8.04 based on debian 4 [23:21] Try Using The Package Manager & See What Happens. Do You Get Any Errors From That. If Not Uninstall ttf... from there ? [23:21] Slart: no it's not, it has the same beginning than my internet ip [23:21] AyBayBay: Package manager uses apt... So I don't think it would work. [23:21] Hi guys i have one problem whith my 3g modem [23:22] jado: what is the ip? [23:22] but i have another question ; if on a local network 3 computers have the local ip 192.168.1.1/3 and the router which routes them has the internet ip for instance 232.143.6.78 ; how will someone ping one specific computer of the local network ? [23:22] Well Thats The Point Of Testing It. :L [23:22] he is not work ...... [23:22] jado: they can't.. unless you do some special stuff [23:23] help me [23:23] can anyone tell me how to turn back on a wireless network card (internal) - it was on eth1, but not not accessable [23:23] AyBayBay: It does the same thing, but with nice windows. [23:24] that's a shame ; so i cannot connect to ssh on a computer which is behind a local network ? [23:24] so um I'm running 8.10, how do I get Compiz Fusion(if it's still called that) rolling ? [23:24] Lol. Just Checking, Was Hoping Maybe a Terminal Error :/ [23:24] jado: well. not without doing something called port forwarding [23:24] ok [23:24] Can some1 help me [23:24] so i just have to forward the port 22 to the ip i want ? [23:24] blue112: Was That Installed From A Third Party Repo ? [23:25] I don't know, it comes with another packet. [23:25] jado: port forwarding simple means that you setup the router so that everthing that comes in to a certain port gets sent to a certain other computer, on some port [23:25] I tried 1 million ways to add boxee to 3rd party source and i get an error [23:25] yes sure i know [23:25] jado: it doesn't have to be port 22.. you can use any port you want.. you will have to specify the port when you connect though [23:26] jado, you can forward port 22 to another machine that has SSH(server) running on port 22 as well, but personally I'd run the server on a different port and forward that [23:26] yes with -p , also [23:26] blue112: Yeah It Was :L You May Have Installed One For A Different Ubuntu Type ? [23:26] security and all [23:26] yes ok [23:27] THIS is WHAT i GET Failed to fetch http://apt.boxee.tv/dists/intrepid/main/binary-amd64/Packages.gz 404 Not Founm] [23:27] I tried to add it 2 3rd party source million times === JohnFrum is now known as Mr_Green [23:28] thanks for helping, all ; good night [23:28] hello [23:28] and I get error when I go in symnaptic [23:28] Please some1 hellp me [23:28] jado: good night [23:28] ppppppppelleasssse [23:28] hmm.
