proqI have an iMac9.  when I boot into a terminal I can type fine, but when I start x I have no keyboard or mouse.  how do I get these to work?00:01
yasasvyClopin: have you tried other games?00:01
marco__con canale server e porta diversa da questa00:01
marco__come faccio00:02
marco__chi mi aiuta00:02
dingleberryeqisow: Yeah I always use LVM00:02
_Brun0_Help please. My mouse wount work in X11. I can move the mouse around but can't click anything. Keyboard doesn't work also. Any hints on debugging x11 mouse and keyboard in command-line? I might be able to configure them in etc/X11/xorg.conf but I don't knwo what to put there.00:02
dingleberryDasEi: One extended?  Please elaborate.00:02
marco__scusate???????????00:02
dingleberryDasEi: ie. what does that allow me to do later?00:02
Clopinyasasvy: Not on Wine as I havent installed any others yet. Perhaps I should try it out.00:02
skyboundvitopoma: i don't think there is a vhdl specific ubuntu derivate, userbase would be rather small; compiling that stuff manually is probably your best bet00:03
marco__c'è qualche italiano00:03
marco__?00:03
proq!it00:03
ubottuVai su #ubuntu-it se vuoi parlare in italiano, in questo canale usiamo solo l'inglese. Grazie! (click col tasto destro sul nome del canale per entrare)00:03
vitopomathank you skybound :)00:03
vitopomai'll compile :(00:03
yasasvyClopin: What video card are you using?00:03
DasEi dingleberry:you can have a maximum of (only) four primary partis on a drive, which are up easily fast, but you can define one (ore more) extended ones, anf in withinhin have a vast amount of logical drives that behave as single partis00:03
marco__ok grazie mille dell'aiuto00:04
grkblood13how do i know if comcast is filtering my usenet makign it go slower?00:04
Clopinyasavy: Zepto GeForce 8800GT00:04
yasasvyClopin: Did you install the required drivers for that?00:05
DasEi dingleberry:it's always nice for backup purposes or trouble in fs to have seperate partis, also it's a security feature00:05
Clopinyasasvy: COuld it be overheating?00:05
Rangoecan someone please give me some hints on grub4dos00:05
skyboundvitopoma: you are welcome; probably not the answer you wanted. didn't want you to feel ignored :-)00:05
Clopinyasasvy: I've installed nVidia 180.44 which should support the GeForce 8 Series00:06
aaronator_I want to upgrade to kernel 2.6.29.1.  Is there anything special I need to do since I am running 64 bit ubuntu00:06
DasEiRangoe: what do you want to achieve ?00:06
yasasvy_Brun0_: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg00:06
DasEi!jaunty | aaron00:08
ubottuaaron: 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 23rd - Please join #ubuntu+1 for discussion and support.00:08
Rangoetks DasEi, my company was running a 2003 server on an hp proliant ml, i rebooted the system today and it doesnt boot anymore, all i get is a window with 3 choices, spyhunter, windows xp and windows vista - any optin gives me an error 17 - file not found - set root - sh4ldr/vmlinuz - ive never used grub4dos in my life all my searches point to linux/ubuntu stuff which i know nothing00:09
=== Guest50399 is now known as johnsirrss
tommi69hi all00:09
_Brun0_yasasvy, ty! i'll try that00:09
tuxFansup00:09
tommi69anyone using jaunty beta and having python errors on updates?00:09
DasEiRangoe: do the other options work ?00:09
vitopomaah one thing.. how can i partecipate in making ubuntu packages? for example i have successfully compiled alliance with apt-get -b source alliange and by changing slightly the source code: it compiles and works perfectly. how can i distribute it so users as me don't get mad in trying to compile (there are errors in source code and it don't compile well in gcc4.3)?00:09
aaronator_dasei: are you suggesting i do a full upgrade to 9.0400:09
RangoeDasEi none work00:10
grkblood13any1 here have giganews00:10
lamerabend, good evening00:10
aaronator_dasei: I really want to get the 'practice' of upgrading a kernel in for experience - I am just learning Linux00:10
DasEiaaronator: the kernel you spoke of is the neweset available from kernel.org, I assume, jaunty is still beta, but newst release, why do want that kernel ?00:10
DasEi!custom00:10
RangoeDasEi im kinda desperate on this, i dont understand where did grub4dos came from or why does it show those 3 options it doesnt make any sense00:10
ubottuSorry, I don't know anything about custom00:10
solexiousHello, I want to add a line to apt.conf but ubuntu uses a apt.conf.d folder, I added the line to one of the files in it to use a proxy but it was removed after a reboot. What should I do to stop this?00:10
Clopin!kernel00:11
BossmanbetaHi, is there a way to have VNC running after I reboot ubuntu, so I can login to the X session with VNC? Right now, if I reboot, VNC won't engage unless I am physically at the box to login to the X session, then I can VNC in remotely. However, I need to VNC after a reboot to login to the X session, so I need VNC to be listening on the console GUI that's showing the login-screen immediately after00:11
ubottuThe core of the Ubuntu Operating System is the Linux kernel: see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel - You shouldn't have to compile your own, but if you're convinced you do, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel/Compile - See also: /msg ubottu stages00:11
Bossmanbetareboot.00:11
aaronator_dasei: experience00:11
DasEiRangoe: it sounds like there is a grub installed that doesn't boot anymore; do you kow if there was a linux on before ?00:11
vitopoma(i obtained alliance from revu)00:12
RangoeDasEi im not sure it could be.. i didnt install it myself. What would you normally do in order to fix the boot00:12
ClopinWhy cant I find the latest stable Linux kernel (2.6.29.1) in Synaptic?00:13
yasasvyClopin: Did you install WoW as specified by the community documentation?00:13
DevourerOh.00:13
RangoeDasEi i would try an 2003 repair install but it doesnt boot from cd, only cd that boots is the one from hp which only allows me to do a clean install00:13
Clopinyasasvy: Yep.00:13
eqisowClopin: because it's not there00:14
biglinuxoi00:14

DasEiaaronator : a guide is here http://www.howtoforge.com/kernel_compilation_ubuntu , there is a tool for starters, I just can#t remember right now, which guides; but be aware it can be tricky as the packets might not be sufficient for it00:15
dingleberryDasEi: Eventually I will four 1Tb drives in a RAID 10 config though00:15

ubottuJaunty 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 23rd - Please join #ubuntu+1 for discussion and support.00:15
aaronator_DasEi: so are there anything different I need to do because I have a 64bit OS?00:15
eqisowBossmanbeta: Are you using Gnome's VNC server?00:16
DasEiaaronator : no, just the right kernel / headers / patches for 6400:16
DasEi!kernel00:16
ubottuThe core of the Ubuntu Operating System is the Linux kernel: see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel - You shouldn't have to compile your own, but if you're convinced you do, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel/Compile - See also: /msg ubottu stages00:16
aaronator_thanks00:16
Clopineqisow: Could you tell me how to upgrade to the latest kernel? I've read somewhere that it's always best to have the latest, and I wanted to see if it could fix some of my problems.00:17
Bossmanbetaeqisow: yes, but it does not answer right after a reboot, I have to login at the console first.00:17
vitaliy_hey guys can someone help me get compiz working with ubuntu 8.10 and i have fglrx driver my video card is x1650 pro00:17
vitopoma??00:17
eqisowBossmanbeta: That's because it's initialized by Gnome. ie. it starts when you log in00:17
Bossmanbetaeqisow: how can I see the gui represented at the console remotely prior to login so I can login remotely?00:18
DasEiRangoe: that's bad, no live-cd bootable .. can you acces the drive in another way (f.e. hang the hd in a working pc ?) ?00:18
eqisowBossmanbeta: a different vnc server that's started by init might do it, but I'm not 100% on that. X over ssh is an option as well00:19
RangoeDasEi: yea thats another issue.. the 5 hds are ~SAS which means i cant connect em to a sata (no cables)00:19
DasEi dingleberry:sound interesting, I never done else then raid 0/1  , so no help from me there00:19
eqisowBossmanbeta: You may want to take a look at FreeNX as well00:20
yasasvyClopin: you should compile the kernel from source code00:20
skyboundvitopoma: personally i would try to push compile fixes to the upstream project (if it is still active); concerning ubuntu the is some "contributing" page somewhere on the website (the basic process goes like: get a mentor to check your pkg and upload it; debian-like [i am going to get flamed for this no doubt])00:20
Bossmanbetaeqisow: I need to see the actual session presented on the monitor, remotely -- when I launch vnc4server on :0, all I see is a grey screen with a terminal... which doesn't help, since I need to see the actual gui shown on the monitor (gdm login + the gnome session displayed as though I was at the console, remotely)00:20
mgolischif its software raid thats the only good option you have @ dingleberry00:20
DasEiRangoe: but you say the hp disk boots.., which other boot-cd's did you try ?00:20
vitaliy_hey guys can someone help me get compiz working with ubuntu 8.10 and i have fglrx driver my video card is x1650 pro00:21
RangoeDasEi only the hp one, i tried the 2003 server bootable cd on my home computer and its bootable and workin00:21
Im_Toastvitaliy_: What isn't working?00:21
mib_1z1zrvCan I be exploited if I run a Live Ubuntu CD? Can an attacker access my hard drive/ partitions?00:21
DasEi!live | Rangoe00:22
ubottuRangoe: The Ubuntu Desktop CD is a "LiveCD" which can be run without altering existing files on your harddrive. Especially useful for testing your hardware's compatibility, it also includes an install option.00:22
vitaliy_im toast when i lunch my desktop effecvtsa it says desktop effects cannot be enabled00:22
Im_Toastvitaliy_: Do you have compiz settings manager?00:22
Rangoeubottu does it mean i could fix the boot without screwing the o.s ?00:22
ubottuError: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :)00:22
vitaliy_im not sure this is my first day using linux00:22
Rangoelol00:22
Rangoeoops00:22
vitaliy_actually second00:22
Im_Toastvitaliy_: Fourth here =D00:22
vitaliy_:)00:22
Im_Toastvitaliy_: type in a terminal sudo apt-get install compiz-settings-manager00:23
DasEi Rangoe : I suggest you first d/l an ubuntu an a knoppix live cd to get any access to that sys; will it be used for buisnness on or is it in your hands now, anyway ?00:23
DasEiand *00:23
scxmib_1z1zrv: older version ubuntu livecd had a bug, which overwritte dm-crypt encrypted partitions00:23
RipzerskinsAnyone know how to stop flickering in native ubuntu games?00:23
vitaliy_E: Couldn't find package compiz-settings-manager00:23
vitopomathank you sky, i'll try it. why flame? we are trying to make ubuntu better :) now i go sleep. goodnight every one and thank you for your answer :)00:23
vitaliy_i gues not00:23
mib_1z1zrvAnyone?00:23
DasEi!ask00:24
ubottuPlease 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. :-)00:24
mib_1z1zrvCan I be exploited if I run a Live Ubuntu CD? Can an attacker access my hard drive/ partitions?00:24
Xcellvitaliy_--  go to sys/admin/synaptic package manager...in (search) type..compiz00:24
DasEimib_1z1zrv: if it's a good one AND the hd is mounted, maybe, not very likely00:24
scxmib_1z1zrv: yes ;p00:24
eqisowBossmanbeta: like I said, check out FreeNX or (possible) a different VNC server. I don't think gnome's does what you want00:25
RangoeDasEi that server is working as a dhcp server / domain server, all the ppl that work in the company saved their files in there. i guess it would be used for business00:25
yasasvyRipzerskins: Disable compiz if you are using it00:25
Ripzerskinsyasasvy: It doesn't make a difference.00:25
oneforallhi ius there a package of sage 3.4?00:25
mib_1z1zrvscx: Are you saying its better to make Ubuntu a local install and harden the Kernel from there?00:26
Ripzerskinsyasasvy: By that I mean, when I do disable it, it still flickers.00:26
geniiAny way to make some arbitrary sized disk image ?00:26
DasEi Rangoe : so first get these two live-cd's, then first back up the mbr before starting any screwing ( case it gets worse) , then check out which os(es) are on it, then we can see on00:26
yasasvytype this in your terminal and tell me the output "glxinfo | grep rendering"00:26
Krine11hi00:27
RangoeDasEi is grub4dos similar to partition magic as a software?00:27
Krine11how come when i play wolfenstein enemy territory on ubuntu it lags like hell00:27
scxmib_1z1zrv: yes00:27
DasEi!grub | Rangoe00:27
ubottuRangoe: GRUB is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost GRUB after installing Windows? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreGrub - GRUB how-tos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto00:27
RangoeDasEi oki tks00:27
neurobuntuI'm thinking about building my own machine and running windows in a virtual machine, should I buy a CPU with virtualization support tech?00:27
DasEi Rangoe : Grub is a linux bootlaoder that also can load windozes00:28
dingleberrymgolisch: Not sure what you mean.. "if its software raid thats the only good option you have @ dingleberry"00:28
DasEiRangoe: also checkout #grub00:28
RangoeDasEi yea im in there asking but no do atm00:28
DasEiRangoe: case it's a pure windows install: #windows00:28
maikeduuuuuuuuuuuuuuude00:29
mgolischdingleberry: there isnt much you could do besides raid1000:29
RangoeDasEi ty so much for all the hints brb00:29
DasEiRangoe: so first try to get a live cd to boot, as you can't acces the pc in another way00:29
mgolischall parity stripe raid levels are a nogo without hw controlers with battery backed caches, unless you are insane00:29
DasEiRangoe: cu00:29
RangoeDasEi ok will do00:29
dingleberrymgolisch: Ah.. Yeah well there's raid 5.. but I'm not liking the performance hit00:30
mgolischyeah thats nogo with software raid00:30
mgolischunless you are crazy00:30
DasEimib_1z1zrv: if you'r really paranoid, dismount the hd and change root-pw, really paranoid..00:30
dingleberrymgolisch: Dreadfully slow?00:30
omer666hi00:32
knucklebrawlerwhats the difference between ubuntu and mint?00:32
Huufartedanybody know of a way to do a directory listing with ONLY file size (in bytes) and the file name, nothing else?00:32
mib_1z1zrvDasEi: change root pw on a live session?00:33
DasEimib_1z1zrv: if you'r really..  yes, so it's much harder to get any harmfull access ;-)00:33
erUSULHuufarted: man ls (hint ls -s)00:33
Davide I just installed MythBuntu 8.10, and am unable to get sound working on the system.  It's not just in mythtv, the whole system has no sound.  Is there a way to check if the sound drivers are properly installed?  I'm new at linux00:33
epaphushi guys, anybody know how i can install a VPN client in ubuntu?? to openvpn00:33
mib_1z1zrvDasEi: something so simple and I didnt think of it. Tyvm00:34
knucklebrawlerwhats the difference between ubuntu and mint?00:34
HuufartederUSUL: that p**ses me off...  I was looking at that for 20 minutes and I'm obviously blind00:34
DasEiknucklebrawler: mint is a specal distri for multimedia-stuff,  special paketselection, also see ubuntu-studio00:34
mroccan anyone help me set up a shared internet connection?00:34
DasEi!ics | mroc00:35
ubottumroc: If you want to share the internet connection of your ubuntu machine with other machines in the network see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/InternetConnectionSharing - You may also use !firestarter: http://www.fs-security.com/docs/connection-sharing.php00:35
vitaliy_hey guys after i run compiz check i get this http://pastebin.com/m78b0140500:36
omer666I try to compile ioquake 3 and I've got that maessag ; /usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lGL00:36
omer666wtf ?00:36
mrocDasEi: thanks, i'll read through that.  I used to have it working well with firestarter but whenever i plug in the wired connection, it immediately seems to take precedence because i can no longer connect to the outside world.00:36
omer666I comiled it a few days ago00:36
omer666and it worked perfectly00:36
vitaliy_hey guys after i run compiz check i get this http://pastebin.com/m78b0140500:37
mib_1z1zrvafk00:37
DasEimroc: if the interfaces are cnfigured correctly, might have to restart network after plugging00:37
mgolischdingleberry: all parity sripe raid levels suffer from a fundametal flaw the so called write whole, that is if parity information and the actual content become inconsistent due to power failures or similar and that is not corrected before a block or disk fails, you will have data loss due to the incorrect parity information used to rebuild the failed block/disk, thats why hw raid controlers have battery backed caches , a software raid provides no protection ag00:38
vitaliy_hey guys after i run compiz check i get this http://pastebin.com/m78b0140500:39
mgolischtoo bad not many people seem to know or care for that00:39

DasEiWolfey: you mean :00:50
DasEi!dcc00:50
ubottuThere are people around who think it is funny to abuse a bug in certain routers by sending invalid DCC commands. When bitten by this bug ops in #ubuntu remove users so they are no longer targets. To fix it have a look here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FixDCCExploit00:50
Barridusi misspoke00:50

MacGyverNLIceman_B|SSH: Off-topic, but you do need the IRC server to establish the connection.00:50
lstarnesIceman_B|SSH: it is negotiated through irc00:50

spaceBARbarian would this partition setup be good in terms of space ? 4GB for '/' ; 4GB for '/var' ;  10GB for '/usr' ; 20GB for '/home'00:53
DasEimroc: how is it configured ?00:53
crdlbspaceBARbarian: I don't see any reason to split /, /usr, and /var00:54
mrocDasEi: there are two blocks...the first is a static config...then there's a line below that with auto eth000:54
DasEispaceBARbarian: any special purposes with that sys ?00:54
_pHI_is there a good way to allow a specific user to have read/write access to usb ports?00:54
_pHI_except for a sudo chmod -R a+rwx /proc/bus/usb?00:54
DasEimroc:they belong together; is the static config right for that device or does it listen to an dhcp ?00:55

xkucf03hello00:55
crdlbspaceBARbarian: separating /boot isn't necessary anymore00:55
mrocDasEi: it should be correct, it's the internal side, so it should be static.  my wireless interface wlan0 is connected to the internet.  eth0 is connected to client computer with crossover cable.00:55
sveakexhey, how can i unlock users from a ssh server00:56
crdlbspaceBARbarian: as long as you don't use an exotic FS for / that grub doesn't support00:56
xkucf03i have something wrong with my lilo: Fatal: device-mapper: only linear boot device supported00:56
DasEimroc: k, then close gedit..00:56

spaceBARbariancrdlb: no im installing jaunty, so i guess ill just do / and /home00:57
godrikHello everyone00:57
sveakexi locked myself out of my home server, how can i remove the lock, i have physical access to it00:57
Mionxkucf03: keep your /boot outside of the raid/lvm00:57
sveakexwith ssh00:57
mrocDasEi: reconfiguring ... then a warning that ifup -a is disabled in favour of Network Manager.00:57
DasEispaceBARbarian: that sounds alright, and give / a 10 GB00:57
crdlbspaceBARbarian: then you're in the wrong channel, but you seem to know that00:57
omer666crdlb: I am using nVidia Drivers v18000:57
godrikI updated to jaunty two days ago. I believe I got a regression from intrepid in the access00:58

piegodsveakex: What sort of 'lock'?00:59
Anacranomomer666, bur not 8.04 LTS ?00:59
DasEispaceBARbarian: so you're fine, you don't even have to seperate home, though nice for backup-purposes / fs problems; don't forget a parti for swap00:59
usserxkucf03, lilo has been largely phased out in favor of grub i doubt you'll find any help on it here00:59
sveakexpiegod: it won't ask my for a username or password in putty00:59
ZachFlemgood morning folks.00:59
sveakexme*00:59
spaceBARbarianDasEi: yeah already did swap, i want home on a separate disk so i have to make that different01:00

ussersveakex, can you ping the server?01:01
ussersveakex, can you ping from the server?01:01

Zaraphraxif im running an IRC server on Ubuntu, behind the NAT on my DSL modem, is their any point to using IPTables? I don't think there would be...01:03
mrocDasEi: not sure what you mean by that.  network manager handles the wireless connection properly.  whenever i try to configure the wired connection as "shared to other computers" i get that read-only message i was talking about.  no idea how to begin fixing that.01:03

Anacranomsveakex, Zaraphrax have you looked at Endian?01:05
omer666bye guys01:05
sveakexAnacranom: nope01:05
ZaraphraxNo I haven't. Should I?01:06
troubledsveakex: pretty much ya. if you know about ipfwadm->ipchains->iptables, this should be a cake walk :)01:06
troubledsveakex: just more tedious than anything since you gotta go through every file and tweak tweak tweak, read, tweak etc.01:06
Anacranomsveakex, Zaraphrax look at it and see what it offers, its very easy if you have the hardware01:06
DasEimroc: eth0 isn't the wireless, should be ath0 or similar01:06
troubledsveakex: it works with ipset's though, which is very handy01:06
sveakextroubled: i don't know iptables.. xD01:07
ZaraphraxAnacranom: Ok, will do thanks.01:07
sveakexAnacranom: alright, endian right?01:07
mrocDasEi: wlan0 is the wireless, eth0 is the wired.   the wireless connects to the outside world, the wired connects to the computer i'd like to share the access to.01:07
troubledsveakex: well, its dealing with the iptables commands behind the scenes for you, but you still sorta gotta understand what it is you want to allow in, like tcp or udp, and what port(s) etc01:08
DasEimroc: I will leave now, ask for someone with wireless on, dealing the message you get at networking restart01:08
mrocDasEi: ok.  thank you for your help.01:08
ZaraphraxHow many IRC users do you guys think I can handle on a DSL line with 64k upload (Just chat, no CTCP)?01:08
Anacranomsveakex, Zaraphrax http://www.endian.com/en/community/01:08

mroci can't get network manager to stop giving me a read-only error.  can someone help me?01:09
ZaraphraxThanks, I'll give that a try.01:09
sveakextroubled: i mean the programs which are infront of iptables01:09
sveakexAnacranom: cool :)01:09
troubledsveakex: eg: ACCEPT:info          loc:+test        $FW     tcp     10,20,30,123401:09
sveakextroubled: well i will have to take a look into it01:09
ZachFlemis there a CLI command to roll back a change made by synaptic?01:09
troubledsveakex: ^^^^ accept, with a INFO line in the syslog, anything from my local zone, who are in the ipset called "test", to connecto to tcp ports 10, 20, 30 and 1234 on the firewall itself01:10
pokethesmotWhy doesn't my wifi work?    (hahhahaha)01:10
sveakextroubled: well it's easier now that you have explained it :P01:10
yasasvymroc: have you tried wicd instead of n/w mgr01:10
troubledsveakex: all shorewall does is basically turn all its config files into lots and lots of iptables calls and loads that file01:10
Anacranompokethesmot, is it "on"?01:10
pokethesmothow do i turn it on?01:11

yowshiis there a way to remove the ESD from ubuntu completly?01:15
Anacranompokethesmot, the reason i ask is because some laptop bios's do not turn on the wireless during the live cd install wich tells the bios to have it in the "off" state upon the first boot01:15

LakesProseDoes Ubuntu support PCI Sata adapters ?  there are like no pata hdd left on the market01:23
histoLakesProse: a lot of them work out of the box01:23
=== patrick is now known as Guest89825
thiebaudeCoJaBo-Aztec: im not even sure how to go about doing that01:23
histoLakesProse: linux has a lot more hardware supported out of the box than windows does01:23
Guest89825hey guys......I am trying to install Sipie and having a few issues.  Is there anyone here that could assist me in solving the problem I have encountered?01:23
LakesProsehisto: hmm, is there a list or I would assume?01:23
histo!ask > Guest8982501:23
ubottuGuest89825, please see my private message01:23
histoLakesProse: there are hardware compatibility lists in the wiki let me get you a link01:24
yasasvymroc: try sudo ifup eth001:24
LakesProsehisto: thanks01:24
rogue780LakesProse, I am currently running a server with a sata drive and a desktop with two sata drives and a pata drive all on linux..no problems here01:24
ScuniziCoJaBo-Aztec: have you checked Lexmark's site for info on linux?  occationally you'll find drivers.. I just bought a Brother all in one network machine and can print fine but haven't been able to get the scan or fax portion to work yet despite available drivers.01:24
Wavesonics/etc/init.d/ <- is this the area i should be looking?01:24
LakesProseand do you like, put he pci card on the motherboard, plug in the SATA drives and they woudl appread as /dev/sdc or /dev/sdd or something ?!01:25
lalillohello how can i install screensavers in kubuntu pls01:25
histoLakesProse: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupport This is not a complete list it is community developed so keep that in mind. The best way to see if your hardware is supported is just to boot the install cd. Which will function as a live distro01:25
histoWavesonics: what are you looking for01:25
botuxim having issues seeing samba shares on my windows box can someone assist01:25
LakesProserogue780: well I was thinking about sata drives connected *through* a PCI card to the motherboard01:25
canuck1is ubuntugeek.com trustworthy for guides? I want to install kde 4.2 on this ubuntu 8.10 box01:25
botuxand would also like to see my windows shares onmy ubuntu box01:25
CoJaBo-Aztecthiebaude: Neither do I, unfortunately it looks like the computer will not be usable with any linux at all :/01:25
Wavesonicshisto: I have a script i need to run on startup, thats all. how can I do this?01:25
mrocyasasvy: that killed my wireless connection.01:25
Wavesonicshisto: from command line01:25
LakesProsehisto: I'll order the PCI SATA-adapter on the web so it's do&fail01:25
histocanuck1: its not supported here if something breaks01:25
rogue780LakesProse, as long as the sata controller on the card is supported by linux...i'd assume it would be since that's at the hardware/bios level01:26
ScuniziLakesProse: that card would be a SATA pci adaptor card and .. yes.. it'll typically see it..01:26
histoWavesonics: put it in /etc/rc.local01:26
CoJaBo-AztecScunizi: Lexmark has specificly stated they intend not to support Linux.01:26
canuck1histo: kde or ubuntu geek?01:26
yasasvymroc: I am sry but is eth0 your wireless connection?01:26
ScuniziCoJaBo-Aztec: ah.. then it's time to give  money to a different company..01:26
LakesProseScunizi: all right, so it would still appear somewhere in /dev/, I wouldn't have to pull any weird tricks01:26
AnacranomLexmark != Linux01:26
histoWavesonics: or you can add it to your session in System > Preferences > session it will get executed when you log in. if its in rc.local it will get executed on startup01:26
rogue780Lexmark hates linux and kills puppies01:27
histocanuck1: i've used both i prefere ubuntu. You might be able to get more help on the issue in #kubuntu01:27
ScuniziLakesProse: not typically..if the card is recognized the drives will be accessable.. all drives on the current itterations of Ubuntu are known as sd<something>  even ide drives..01:27
Wavesonicshisto:  ok, so rc.local is the ONLY way to do it at boot?01:27
histoWavesonics: no their are other ways01:27
historc.d01:27
histoWavesonics: rc.d system01:27
werswhere do I save .py scripts? :D this one http://exit66.com/?p=272 actually01:27
lstarneswers: anywhere01:28
histoWavesonics: but i'm not too familiar with that way. rc.local is the old school way01:28
Anacranomhisto, what about a cron job?01:28
mrocyasasvy: no.  wlan0 is wireless, connected to internet.  eth0 is wired, connected to computer i want to share internet access to.01:28
pixelmonkeyis the source code in the linux-source-2.6.27 package exactly the source code used to build my kernel in Intrepid, namely 2.6.27-11-generic?01:28
CoJaBo-AztecScunizi: Printer was bought long before Linux was considered as an option. Any suggestions for when the Lexmark breaks?01:28
CrayboffI want to add a python module, but I can't figure out where the modules are saved, where are they?01:28
rogue780Scunizi, 9.04 recognizes both my pata and sata drives as hd<something>01:28
Guest89825I am trying to get Sipie installed to listen to Sirius.  It says it was unable to get session bus, and then I get a bunch of .py errors.  what am I missing?01:28
histoWavesonics: Anacranom in linux there are plenty of ways to accomplish the same thing01:28
ScuniziLakesProse: the only hoops to jump are if you're adding these drives to an existing system.  YOu may have to modify fstab01:28
werslstarnes, it will just work as long as it's on my filesystem?01:28
Scunizirogue780: really?  hardy and intrepid were all sd<something>01:28
lstarneswers: as long as it is on your filesystem and the python interpreter can read it01:28
histoWavesonics: I guess the proper "debian" way would be using update-rc.d01:28
ScuniziCoJaBo-Aztec: hehe.. now?01:29
=== Guest89825 is now known as Patrick
Wavesonicshisto: hehe true... Also 1 more question, I set up a process to run at boot months ago. and now forgot where I did it, so I can't stop it! Any sugestions?01:29
CoJaBo-Azteclol01:29
werslstarnes, so how do i ensure that the python interpreter can read it?01:29
ScuniziCoJaBo-Aztec: "jeez.. a book just fell on it and now it's not working"01:29
rogue780Scunizi, i don't know if it matters, but it's currently just a live cd running and the two sata drives are laptop sata drives01:29
knArwhere in ubuntu is the setting for adjusting screen brightness?01:29
mgolischWavesonics: /etc/rc.local ?01:29
=== Patrick is now known as Guest58269
histoWavesonics: so if you sudo update-rc.d scriptname defaults it would put it in runlevel 2 3 4 and 501:29
Barridushmmm.  why would pidgin autostart, when it's not set to in Startup Applications, and "Remember Running Apps" is unchecked there as well.  Maybe UNR (which i am running?)01:29
lstarneswers: there usually is nothing extra you need to do that.  To be safe, chmod u+rx file.py01:29
histoWavesonics: man update-rc.d for more information01:29
Guest58269Is there anyone familiar with Sipie?01:29
Scunizirogue780: might be.. I don't think they've changed the sub system that drasticly again.01:30
Barridusoops wrong chan, disregard.01:30
Wavesonicsmgolisch: I greped for it in rc.local, it's not in there :/01:30
lstarneswers: technically it doesn't even need the .py if its first line is like #!/usr/bin/env python01:30
werslstarnes, thanks. that makes the file an executable, yes?01:30
luoexcuse me, I use Ubuntu9.10. When I and a new user, it's unluky the Tab auto-completion is not working, and then i find the .bashrc not working too. so someone give me some help?01:30

kramsterHi all.  I'm a novice to Ubuntu and am trying to instal it on a 933Mhz P3 with 640Mb Ram and heaps of disk.  I got it running as dual boot with XP but have to fiddle for ages to get the GUI to come up.03:16

kramsterHi Xcell - what do you mean by "crank up the BIOS?  WHat happens when I boot is get ACPI: No DMI BIOS year and then I drop to shell.  I seem to be getting a timeout because an eror complains about /dev/disk/by-uuid/<disk-id> not existing when it is there.  Later I can get the Gnome up (5 minutes or so).03:20
yasasvyStevenX:Compiz --enable03:20
StevenXthank you yasasvy. is there a setting to make it turn up automatically?03:20

sammyFmu2: pulseaudio doesn't exactly help out neither03:24
MewtwoHmm, I just got an idea.03:24
Davidealso may I add I am using Mythbuntu03:24
mu2sammyF: I am also not able to make sense of it... any other way of getting sound o/p from mixxx ?03:24
yasasvyStevenX: can you be more detailed03:24
pahomhi all03:24
MewtwoGrabbing Wine and running AOL Dialer under that...03:24
eseven73that shouldn't matter Davide03:24
StevenXyasasvy, the opacity plugin is not working correctly.03:25
mu2sammyF: will using KDE desktop solve the problem ?03:25
kramsterxcell - you're right.03:25
mu2sammyF:login to kde session03:25
StevenXyasasvy, I can't get it to work. Even though I have it enabled.03:25
sammyFmu2: no idea. try it out03:25
Xcellkramster--  depending on the bios.. you could speed up both the buss and mem latency.. the variances depend on the hardware03:25
kandinskiMewtwo: it sure fixed my nostalgia03:26
Xcellkramster--  but being the mem is only pc 133.. you should have @leats 1 gig03:26
yasasvyStevenX: I am sry but try using replace instead of enable03:26

Xcelldont feel bad kramster  i have to load a 800mhz dell tomorrow for a customer.. joy.03:28
botuxi cant see my samba shares on my windows any ideas why03:29
Xcellkramster--  U could give it a try.. but the very last thing you need to install is any eye candy.. get the machine running first03:29

eseven73look in Mystbuntu control centre03:30
eseven73im not familiar with mythbuntu, but thats just a guess davide03:30

space_cadetit says it has 12 buttons03:33
eseven73Davide, is there a reason you use Mythbuntu over Ubuntu?03:34
space_cadetand there's a lot of parameters.03:34
Davidewell I am trying to setup a DVR03:34
Barridusyou can install mythtv in ubuntu03:34
Davideeseven73 that's the only reason it is hooked up to my TV03:34
space_cadetplus currently it's backlight is on.  I want to know how to configure that as well.03:34
yasasvyStevenX: Is this the first time you using compiz?03:35
StevenXyasasvy, no. I've set it up before.03:35
KirillHey guys I'm FED UP with Vista on my Eee PC. I think I'm at the right place03:35
DavideBarridus I tried that in the past a long time ago and I went through a lot of pain to no avail... I figured I'd give it another shot, and had hoped that Mythbuntu might be easier, more tailored to do what I needed...03:35
eseven73Davide, ok well again I know next to nothing about mythbuntu really, so Im not sure how much further I could help at this point, if my above "Fix" doesnt work for you03:35
XcellKirill--  U sure are.03:35
Davidewell I've burned an ubuntu cd I can go ahead and install that instead03:36
Davidethinking about it03:36
StevenXyasasvy, somehow, it is working now.03:36
StevenXthank you very much.03:36
DavideI'm guessing if I download the ubuntu desktop it should be the same thing?03:36
losherI was disappointed with Mythbuntu last time I tried it. Too many things didn't seem to work. I've had good luck installing mythtv over regular Ubuntu03:36
eseven73my method of fixing sound, works 99% of the time for those with just plain Ubuntu 8.1003:36
space_cadetanyone familiar with synaptics??03:36
yasasvyStevenX, ok03:36
Davideall right eseven73 I will install ubuntu if this doesnt work03:36
DavideI was planning to try it anyway :D03:36
eseven73Davide, I would just get regular Ubuntu, and stick some DVR functions in it03:36
KirillXcell -> thanks :) Well here are my concerns, I must have Outlook/Office 2007/Adobe Reader/BlackBerry Support and a address book management software used by my company. Can I run all that in Wine?03:36
eseven73sounds like a plan :)03:37
eseven73Davide, that way the gurus in here could help you 100%03:37
XcellKirill--  someone here would know..03:37
Davideok03:37
Davide:D03:37
BarridusDavide, i haven't worked with mythbuntu either (or mythtv for that matter, yet), but i've found it fairly easy to swap from one 'buntu to another (Xubuntu to Ubunu to Kubuntu to a completely different windows manager package and all back again)03:37
DavideI hope so I don't want to install windows!!03:37
eseven73yeah don't do that, Microsoft has enough customers :P03:38

KirillWine + BlackBerry anyone? 0.o03:39
uofm49426ok no one talking in xubuntu hope someone here has03:39
losherIt's heresy, but I found the easiest myth install was Knoppmyth. Excellent hardware detection. Up within an hour...03:39
BarridusXcell, that was a joke?  seemed relevant and valid advice XD03:39
yasasvyStevenX: do u have compiz settings manager installed?03:39
Xcelllol03:39

Im_ToastAdmin_: If the BIOS is corrupted, your screwed03:40

KirillOk, no blackberry... how about Outlook + Wine?03:42

ChowderSo compiz won't work with my computer now because my gfx card reached a "blacklist". However, its ok. I want to install e17. What I had in mind was using Gnome with e17 and using thunar instead of nautilus by default. Is this possible?03:51
Admin__It does see the CD once there is a CD I attempted to make a Windows Boot disc but got error once I booted that is why I am asking if I can boot into ubuntu03:51
space_cadetyasasvy, asus m70Vm-x103:51
Davideice-nine I guess there is a possibility that it could be the sound card itself, but I have no way of testing it... unless I install windows... all I know is that I had windows on this comp several months ago, and at that time the sound worked fine with this sound card03:51
BarridusDavide, what ver of mythbuntu are you using03:51
Davide8.10 Barridus03:51
XcellAdmin__--  if bios isnt working..id say no.03:51

DavideBarridus I dont know what that is..03:52
ice-nineBarridus, is 8.10 using PulseAudio?03:52
space_cadetyasasvy, also, I want to be able to control the backlight... but I don't see that option in synclient03:52

Admin__Wait till you compile source03:54
ice-nineeseven73.  It's been about a week and a half for me, ant not looking back.  :)03:55
Davide:D03:55
Davideok I'll try 9.0403:55
Davideyou think I should get mythbuntu or Ubuntu with mythtv?03:55
eseven73ice-nine, yeah pretty much got everything except compiz working in it03:55
Barridusyeah there's just a "hump".  once you're over it and have the context to understand what to look for and more importantly what to ask, you'll be a whiz at linux overnight03:55

=== TrueYomic is now known as Yomic
ice-nineDavide, Or like Barridus recommends, 8.04...03:55
XcellUbuntu with mythtv03:55
BarridusDavide, yeah i say try hardy 8.04 first.  it was literally the linux that made me love linux03:56
ShinyHati just installed nvidia 180 drivers and now after the ubuntu progress bar at startup i see a blank screen- if i ctrl-alt-f1 then ctrl-alt-f7 everything operates normally. anyone have any advice?03:56
Davideif I get 8.04... will I be able to upgarde to 9.04? or do I have to reinstall?03:56
Barridusit's LTS (long term support) so most things are stable and well documented03:56

mrthraz1hey guys, i'm really having trouble finding a solution on the ubuntu web forums, my problem is my dv 9000 wont use both cores, how can i fix this?03:57
BarridusDavide, i belive distro upgrades are done one version at a time unless i'm incorrect.  you'll have to step to 8.10 then 9.04 i think.  but if hardy works for you, why not keep it?  if it ain't broke don't fix it, that's the linux way03:57

mrthraz1hey guys, i'm really having trouble finding a solution on the ubuntu web forums, my problem is my dv 9000 wont use both cores, how can i fix this?04:04
BarridusDavide, one reason why versions are different in how they work out of box is that they all use different kernel versions.  and drivers tie into the kernel, so sometimes hardware will be wonky in one kernel than another and require more or less workarounds04:05
{bosco}hi i  am going to reinstall windows on my computer for testing but i want to dual boot the last time i installed windows with linux the MBR overided grub how do i set it to dual boot???????04:05

ivantisIs there a way to backup everything from desktop edition and put it on an ubuntu server? I mean like programs and files and such04:05
edgex-_{bosco}, you need to install windows on another partition, then reinstall grub to the MBR using an ubuntu livecd04:05
mrthraz1oh you got there first04:06
BarridusDavide, since you're using a "legacy" soundcard, you may find it better supported in an older kernel (sometimes old stuff is broken in newer kernels but it's a low priority fix since the old kernels can be used)04:06
ivantisI mean a seperate server04:06

{bosco}edgex-_, is there a post to were i can look at on how to do that04:07

ice-nineDavide, the linux part was pretty straight forward, and the only thing I got caught up in the mythtv configuration was the type of tuner card I had installed, but once that was taken care of It was quite easy.  I did have to modify my remote control configuration file to get extended functionality.04:12
BarridusDavide, well some 8.10 stuff is "backported".  i don't know what exactly as i don't use myth04:13
Barridusso it's like having a more compatable 8.10 in some cases04:13
Clem16Thanks guys, just incase you were wondering why firefox was crashing on my attempts to load java, I found the solution / what i did wrong.. create a symbolic link to the plugin in the java directory do not copy it over... thats what was causing it to foul up.04:13

Iceman_B|SSHlstarnes: thanks :)04:43
BarridusDavide, that "sessions" thing is sort of analogous to windows'  start->startup menu.  stuff that autoruns.  the system monitor/processes is somewhat analogous to the task manager.  you can see what is currently running04:43

Barridusthen reboot and see if sound works with alsa.  (you may need to fiddle with the mixer again)04:44

wendywilkhaving problems getting AC97 audio drivers to work in ubuntu 8.1004:47

wendywilkwhere can I download AC97 audio drivers for ubuntu 8.10?04:49
littlebeautyhi04:49
arybitfish: it shows me tree gears  :)04:49
bitfishziroday: uh, if glx (3d) works, his Video-card definitely works. i don't think i understand your question ;)04:49
BarridusDavide, yeah his prob is legacy device in a newer kernel that no longer supports it correctly out of box, or that pulseaudio is doing the "i feel like sucking" thing it can do sometimes depending on hardware04:49
zirodaybitfish: he wanted to know what drivers he was using, not whether glxgears work :)04:49

ice-ninehard to kill...04:52

Guest71675Howdy all.  So I recently installed ubuntu 9.04 during my switch from Windows (whew-hoo). All of sudden today, OpenOffice Writer started opening at startup. How can I turn that off? I've looked in Preferences>Startup Applications and don't find it there to turn off.04:55
kravlin1who was i talking to?04:55
Im_ToastGuys, 2 things, 1. I occasionally have a small section of my screen like, not update and keep showing something from an earlier screen (Like I switch screens but that section stays the same) Any ideas why?04:55
mopoyowhy does it say xchat is only for windows and fedora linux 704:55
zirodayGuest71675: err why are you running 9.04, its in beta? Anyway support for jaunty is in #ubuntu+104:56

zirodaySJ2000: is there a LP bug filed?04:57
remuHey folks, I had saved my .evolution folder from a previous install, and now after doing a fresh install of ubuntu and running evolution it is asking me to create the profile and everything. Why is it not seeing my old accounts and settings and just running from there?04:57
BarridusDavide, if you'e still there in intrepid try "gksudo gedit /etc/pulse/client.conf" and see if you get the pulseaudio configuration.  if so, change "autospawn = yes" to "autospawn = no"04:57
LiMaOkravlin1: you're welcome04:57
zirodayremu: same version of evolution?04:57
remuziroday, yes it is04:58

nickgarveyis there something in bash like && except in runs the next command if the previous one returned a failure? e.g., false ?? echo "previous command failed"05:00
BarridusDavide, might want to jot that down or something.  it's the 2nd step to ditching pulseaudio if you ever want to give it a shot again.  (first being sessions and unchecking pulseaudio, then doing that edit, then rebooting)05:00
remuziroday, it is all already there, I never removed it from there (my home folder is on a separate partition)05:00
spaceBARbariancan someone help me get i8kmon to detect my config05:00
zirodayremu: ah, well in that case I have no idea05:00
disappearednghey everyone is it possible for me to add a color theme for my gnome-terminal ?05:01
Barriduspulseaudio rocks when it works, but it has some "issues" depending on hardware.  (quite possibly on your legacy card),  it's kind of annoying to convince to go away, as you're noticing XD05:01
DavideBarridus what is pulseaudio exactly?05:01
ScuniziDavide: a sound server..05:02
Brandonhow do i install gnome05:02
Brandonsudo apt-get install desktop-gnome?05:02
BarridusDavide, it's an "overlay" of sorts for ALSA.  adds multiple simultaneous sound channels05:02
ScuniziBrandon: sudo apt-get install gnome-desktop05:02
Brandonah ty05:02
Davideand so in 8.04 it is not present?05:02
Barridusit might still be, i don't know05:03
BrandonE: Couldn't find package gnome-desktop05:03
ScuniziDavide: it is.. but not as well tweeked as 8.1005:03
ary_ziroday: http://pastebin.com/m547c372c05:03
DavideScunizi I see05:03
zirodayary_: you are using the radeon driver05:03
BarridusDavide, either way you'll find out if the kernel is at fault.  if it's still no sound after tweaking mixer, you know now how to ditch pulse.05:03
ScuniziDavide: should also be better in 9.0405:04
ary_ziroday: propietary?05:04
BiosElementNot sure if this is really the place to ask but has anyone had problems connecting to MSN via pidgin? It was working just an hour ago. I'm guessing MSN's having some problems.05:04
zirodayary_: no, open source05:04
DavideI guess if this doesn't work... I just need some newer hardware idk..05:04
DavideLOL05:04
ScuniziBiosElement: that happens.. try aMSN05:04
zirodayBiosElement: install msn-pecan and change your provider to WLM. It is much more stable05:04
BarridusDavide, copout idea here, but you don't happen to have a spare newer card?05:04
ary_ziroday: it come with the default installation05:04
zirodayary_: yes05:04
BrandonScunizi: E: Couldn't find package gnome-desktop why will it not work05:05
BiosElementziroday, Yeah. I was using WLM for a few weeks last month but when I re-installed I left it default. I guess I'll switch it bacl to pecan then.05:05
Davidehehe I don't... unfortunately05:05
BarridusDavide, at least the "plus" side is i'm sure an inexpensive card would work better05:05
SJ2000I think this one has the most similar to my problem except it's only occuring with the 180 drivers from the "Hardware Drivers" interface (Which install 180.11 for some reason) and I'm using Ubuntu 8.10 https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nvidia-graphics-drivers-180/+bug/32174105:05
zirodayBiosElement: basically the current msn thingymabob is legacy, which MS is slowly phasing support out for. WLM is the newer, fancier protocl05:05
BiosElementziroday: Really? I figured it was a deal of pecan being an older more stable protocol. That's useful to know. Thanks. :)05:06
Davidewell if this doesnt work it might push me to finally purchase a new system... then I can use my current rig which is 3 years old or so, and maybe that will work05:06
zirodaySJ2000: read the bug. It tells you to test jaunty which has the gix.05:06
Barridusyeah Davide don't give up on linux.  pulseaudio can be fickle, especially with hardware that's in less demand now05:07
zirodaySJ2000: fix, sorry05:07
SJ2000ziroday: I'm not using Jaunty05:07
zirodaySJ2000: well the fix is in jaunty. Or you can find a PPA with newer drivers in05:07
DavideI'm trying to put the ubuntu on an old P4 2.4ghz 512MB ram Gateway comp that my mom's friend gave me....05:07
DavideI like the case though05:07
Barriduspulse works great in jaunty for me.... except in pidgin for some reason.05:08
Barridusi think it's pidgin's fault though.05:08
SJ2000ziroday: so basically the 180 nvidia driver which is marked as "[Recommended]" in the Hardware Drivers panel is actually old outdated and is known to be faulty?05:08
DavideI'm still not grasping what pulse can actually do05:08
ScuniziDavide: should work.. that's what I was running up until this last Dec.. but I had 2 gigs of ram..05:08
Davideyou said add different sound channels?05:08
zirodaySJ2000: I am not sure of the circumstance, sorry.05:08
zirodaySJ2000: however there is a fix.05:08
Brandonwhat other version's are there gnome kde fluxbox blackbox05:08
DavideI hope scunizi!05:08
Davide:D05:08
BarridusDavide, yeah let's say you have two programs making sounds at once05:08

BarridusDavide, you need pulse for that.  alsa can only handle one.05:09
BoltClockhi, fixing grub after a windows installation only only only affects the mbr right?05:09
DavideI see05:09
SJ2000ziroday: a fix for something I don't use :/ I'm trying to work out why they are recommending outdated and broken drivers on a release05:09
FrodBonziyou can get more help in #2,00005:09
BarridusDavide, once it works it'll all make sense.  hard to wrap your head around it without the common ground of context05:09
zirodaySJ2000: as I said I am not familiar with your situation. You are free to downgrade your drivers if you so wish05:09
Davideyeah I hear that...05:10
Barridusi did too, months ago XD05:10
DJvRadiohola05:10
DavideBut I really enjoy this.  The troubleshooting you're helping me with is teaching me a lot of stuff I didn't know05:10
lalillohello i have a HP card to watch tv, can someone help me to install it please05:10
Davideso that's great!05:10
BarridusDavide, i'm glad i've been of use heheh05:10
DJvRadiois anybodey besides me using portable ubuntu??05:10
Davideyeah you and everyne else... but stick around for the grand finale05:11
SJ2000ziroday: yeah, that's what I did. I'm just surprised that they are still offering the old and broken drivers with showstopped bugs and saying it's recommended. The only reason I installed it was because it popped up and bugged me about it. Is it worth filing a launchpad bug?05:11
Barridusthe initial learning curve seems daunting.  then you hit the "hump" and it's like dawn.05:11
Davidelet's see if it is anticlimactic05:11
DavideLOL05:11
Barridusi doubt i can unfortunately Davide, it's past midnight :/05:11
zirodaySJ2000: a bug has already been filed. I don't think you can do anymore about it besides test with a livecd if the issue still exists05:11
Barridusi hate not seeing things through the end though.05:11

Barriduswell not really, indiana.  it's "eastern" now.05:12
Davide:D05:12
ScuniziSJ2000: you can always install the driver from nvidia.. 180.44 is working for me05:12
SJ2000Scunizi: that's what I used to do, this is the second time I installed it from Hardware Drivers instead of direct.... I've certainly learnt my leason :/05:12

MrObviousnickgarvey: Any ideas?05:50
XcellIm_Toast--  there?05:50

chuxxsssWhy does sudo not work anymore?   I can do sudo -k05:50
Im_ToastXcell: Sound-less =(05:50
nickgarveyMrObvious: well we can try something easy, killall gnome-panel && gnome-panel05:50
UbuntuShake73263jjrev, i believe i went into the package manager and tried to install both kde and kubuntu through that. I believe i also tried an apt-get through the terminal to install kde, and it seemed liked it worked, but nothing changed. lol05:51
nickgarveyMrObvious: actually you don't even need the && and the stuff after it05:51
MrObviousNothing.05:51
MrObviouslol05:51
mopoyowhere do i find where my public keys are kept?05:51
Im_ToastUbuntuShake: When you get KDE you have to select it in sessions05:51
hmwAnon: Youre welcome, glad it was just that. And yes, i like this channel very much, too. Quality of support in here is quite good also.05:51
XcellIm_Toast--  did you right click your spkr icon and go to prefs and make it alsa?05:51

Xcellhmmmm05:52
jjrevUbuntuShake73263, so you might have only needed to do "kubuntu-desktop"05:53
DavideFound 7.10 trying05:53
nickgarveyMrObvious: if that doesn't work, right click an open spot on your panel, add to panel, notification area05:53
lstarnessunapi386: for that, try ifconfig or route05:53
jjrevUbuntuShake73263, and restarted X05:53

MrObviousnickgarvey: Wow lol I lost my Gnome panel completely. lol05:53
chicoDFlstarnes~$  ???05:53
UbuntuShake73263jjrev, so are you saying i should try to install kubuntu through the package manager after installing kde through a terminal?05:53
WavesonicsI'm setting up an SVN server, and having trouble w\ the user authentication, i would like to just use the Linux users if possible, any ideas?05:54
nickgarveyMrObvious: "gnome-panel"05:54

Im_ToastUbuntuShake73263: What problem are you having?05:54
chicoDFlstarnes~$  sorry05:54

jjrevUbuntuShake73263, not really.  if you have the default ubuntu installed, i think you can simply install "kde" from repositories and then log out and select KDE as your window manager05:54
bazhang!ppagpg > mopoyo05:55
ubottumopoyo, please see my private message05:55
MrObviousnickgarvey: Ok I restarted X. That worked. :\05:55
Scunizimopoyo: the key and how to install it should be listed on the PPA that you added to the sources.list..05:55
lstarneschicoDF: I'm not sure if that is due to something bad in the source code for zsnes05:55
Scunizimopoyo: you can also google the key number mentioned..05:55
chicoDFlstarnes~$  long FULL  output05:55
jjrevUbuntuShake73263, do you see a gui when you start the machine to log in?05:55
UbuntuShake73263jjrev, when i boot up, there isnt an option that lets me pick the gui05:55
DavidK999Hello everyone05:55
jjrevUbuntuShake73263, is there a log in screen?05:55
mopoyodon't i have to delete that public key? because it's not available?05:55
Im_ToastUbuntuShake73263: There isn't anything that says options in the bottom left hand corner when you boot up?05:56
lstarnesmopoyo: you have to install that public key05:56
nickgarveyMrObvious: okie, at least it works05:56
Im_ToastXcell: Downloaded05:56
jjrevUbuntuShake73263, if so, there should be an options button near the bottom of the log in window05:56
chuxxssslstarnes, look like it has got to the help screen when I call it like sudo -h | so on05:56
chicoDFlstarnes~$  it's a complete code for zsnes with the command "make"05:56
UbuntuShake73263jjrev, well, after the kubuntu screen loads, it goes back to the boot process and shows me battery state... if i switch to a new window, i think its by using f2 or the f keys or somethin, it asks me to login, so i do, but then it brings me to a terminal05:56
DavideScunizi no sound in 7.10 live environment05:56
UbuntuShake73263jjrev and im_toast, no, there is no options button for me05:56
mopoyolstarnes: i don't understand why i have to install it?05:56
BonezAUanyone having problems with Pidgin or aMSN not signing in?05:56
Im_Toastthat is wierd...05:57
Cpudan80Davide: 7.10 is real old, use 8.04 at least05:57
lstarnesmopoyo: it is needed to make sure that the packages are safe05:57
XcellIm_Toast--  also check your (sound) in sys/prefs/sound and fiddle with that.. make sure its all on alsa05:57
ScuniziDavide: considering the age of the mb.. it should be fixable.. just will take some investigation and experimentation05:57
chuxxsssno BonezAU05:57
jjrevIm_Toast, UbuntuShake73263 agreed.. very strange05:57
Scunizimopoyo: it also verifies that what you get from the ppa is actually from the ppa and not hijacked from someplace else05:57
UbuntuShake73263jjrev, so your saying that when it shows me "ubuntu" on the screen, it should have an options button at the bottom left?05:57
DavideScunizi what kind of investigation/experimentation?  how would one go about figuring that out?  would that be too much trouble for what it's worth?05:58
BlinkyToonBonezAU,  I think MSN is making some changes that are causing problems  but pidgin seems fine05:58
jjrevUbuntuShake73263, yep05:58
Anonhmw: I was pretty sure I searched. Guess I needed to search better.05:58
lstarnesmopoyo: you could try sudo apt-key update05:58
ScuniziDavide: up to you.. just more learning..:)05:58
chuxxsssjust test amsn BonezAU  login in ok from here in AU05:58

UbuntuShake73263jjrev, but even before the custom thing i didnt have a button.06:00
Scunizi!sound | Davide06:00

ubottuCryonisis: 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. :-)06:02
nickgarveyMrObvious: yeah06:02
mamamahey guys, I've been having this strange issue, I can see my sda disk and it's partitions (1,2,3, they're ntfs) however when I try to mount any of them I get a $MFT invalid magic. I tried ntfsfix /dev/sda1 but it says that they aren't there (it's true, only sda is there on /dev)06:02
mamamaHow weird is that? how can I run ntfsfix on sda1? I can see it on parted06:03
lstarneschicoDF: it looks like an extra -L at the end of that g++ command.  I think the maintainers of zsnes might want to know about that06:03
mamamaI can also see them from fdisk, and whenever I try to 'fix' them it says ntfs support isn't available06:03
_-RED-_hello06:03
hmwmamama: seeing it in parted is not the same as having it mounted06:03

CryonisisI am running Vista Ultimate 32 bit. Downloaded 9.04, booted off the disc and started the install. when ti came to starting the partition tool, a message came up about GNU Parted not supporting something or other and that the coding was experimental and offered to "go Back" or Continue. I have selected both and nothing happens. It just sits and does nothing at all.06:05
chuxxsssNo I am getting sudo -h| -l | -L so on lstarnes06:05
lstarneschuxxsss: what is NOT working with sudo?06:05

lstarnesmopoyo: according to that https://help.launchpad.net/Packaging/PPA#Adding%20a%20PPA%27s%20keys%20to%20your%20system you should use a command like sudo apt-key adv --recv-keys --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com 9423A34CCA96763406:06
ScuniziCryonisis: you might have to use Vista's partitioning tool and make room for ubuntu prior to installing.06:06

mopoyoi think it's gay how ubuntu installs all these programs that you don't need!!!!!106:23

hmwrobert00: did you read the INSTALL and README files?06:24
kitchenrangehey everyone, I frequently use torrents and am a part of a website that uses ratios for various things.  I haven't forwarded my ports correctly and my seeding is messing up.  I have checked on portforward.com and I have seen my router and the instructions listed there.  My problem is that I dont know which ports to forward and to where.06:24
robert00yes i did, but i am not very good doing that, i only did make06:25
hmwkitchenrange: that depends on the client you use. You will have better chances on answers, if you search the web for something like "<mytorrentprogram> port forward howto"06:25
robert00hmw yes i did, but i am not very good doing that, i only did make06:25
Geoffrey2I installed a file from source that I downloaded through the ubuntu packages page because it couldn't be downloaded through apt or synaptic.  However, now apt and synaptic don't recognize that it's there when I try to download a program that needs it....any workarounds, or do I probably need to install everything else manually as well?06:25
kitchenrangek thx hmw06:25
hmwrobert00: you will likely have to use ./configure before that. Let me find a tutorial for you...06:26
ScuniziGeoffrey2: if it wasn't a .deb then the package manager hasn't logged it.. if you had to download it that way then you got it from a repo not designed for your install. or a repo that you haven't enabled.06:27
hmwrobert00: http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/Software-Building-HOWTO.html06:27
hmwrobert00: pls pastebin README and INSTALL06:28

robert00hmw  u mean i can broke my system?06:40
hmwrobert00: anything you do as root is potentially putting your system at risk. As you are trying to install a kernel module, i think, it should be ok and even neccecary to do it as root. But I am not 100% sure. Chances of real damaging your sys are low in my opinion.06:41

jakedpxorgconfig is part of standard x distro why is it not in ubuntu?06:42
jakedpoh thanks Scunizi06:43
hmwCryonisis: i doubt that. The sector size is defined, when the drive is formatted. If i am not mistaken, sector size is global for all partitions on that disk. Some strange program must have decided to use such small sectors. I am puzzled.06:43

hmwCryonisis: when the install program asks you on how to partition, select "custom" (or similar. meaning "manual", "for experts"). You will get a screen that allows you to delete and create partitions. Delete it, create it again, make sure you select "format" and assign "ext3" and mount point "/"06:47

ManateeLazyCatcrdlb: "notify-send" can't popup window07:30
crdlbManateeLazyCat: is it installed? ...07:31
ManateeLazyCatcrdlb: It can't popup, but can popup window in Debian. I don't know why? You can make "notify-send" popup window.07:31
ManateeLazyCatcrdlb: Of course07:31
ManateeLazyCatcrdlb: libnotify-bin07:31

ManateeLazyCatcrdlb: What do you mean with "is that process running"? "notify-send" just work when notification-daemon running?07:33

tomcylwhat is ?07:34
clarencetomcyl: take the file to winxp07:35
clarencetomcyl: and download the advanced rar password recovery07:35
g4lt-lappytomaw, meaning that the password isn there to prevent unauthorized access.  if you don't know th e password, by definition, you're unauthorized.  if you rar'd it yourself, my suggestion is to use a decent compression like bzip or gzip07:35
g4lt-lappytomcyl, ^^^^^07:35
tomcyli did try07:35

ninadsp_kyle_ you can try with synaptic... that will tell you about the conflicts... you might have to manually sort them out08:26
_kyle_ok08:26
_kyle_thanks ninadsp08:27
ninadspmattygyver83: does the fstab incluse the auto or defaults option for that drive?08:27
hmwmattgyver83: you have to put an entry to /etc/fstab ... if it is an NTFS drive, apt-get the ntfs-config tool, make4s it very easy08:27
ninadsp_kyle_ np! :)08:27
mattgyver83hmw, its an ext2 ';(08:27
LeonheartWht up?08:27
purveshclearscreen: do u know how 2 know ssid or bssid.08:28
_kyle_i cant wait for ubuntu 9.0408:28
hmwmattgyver83: still no problem. find a howto, google for something like "automount ubuntu". shouldnt be too hard.08:28
LeonheartDid new ubuntu just fixed nvidia problem?08:28
ninadspmattygyver83: then check the /etc/fstab entry for that drive... :) if it does not have teh defaults option, you can add that or the auto option08:28
clearscreenpurvesh: if you mean the bssid/essid you are currently associated with (wireless), then you can use 'iwconfig' :)08:29
ninadspmattgyver83: do check man mount and man fstab08:29
purveshclearscreen: to connect wireless connection go gear08:29
hmwi mean that fstab thingy isnt too hard. You can of course read the man page and think on your own *g*08:29
purveshclearscreen: thanks08:29
ninadsphmw: i agree :)08:29
clearscreenpurvesh: you can also use 'iwconfig' to set essid/bssid, but it's much easier to do it through gnome network tools08:29

ZeZunztal, that really depends on your configuration08:49

mopoyobut on windows you can just create a network and then send stuff to each other09:08
Surlent777mopoyo: Oh, and if your router'd computers are using Windows and have their network crap set up right, you should be able to use Samba inside of Nautilus to access them09:08

imachineTechHead, if it's relatively new, you can encounter issues with the card since it might not supply proper info.09:40
TechHeadimachine: 08:00.0 Network controller: Atheros Communications Inc. AR928X Wireless Network Adapter (PCI-Express) (rev 01)09:40

TechHeadthe laptop is rather new, yes09:40
imachineTechHead, did you install linux-backports-modules ?09:40
mopoyowhy does music sound better on ubuntu than windows09:40
imachineTechHead, it features newer ath drivers, amongst other things.09:40
imachinemight want to try that09:40
ectospasmmopoyo: you should probably take that question to #ubuntu-offtopic, since it's not a support question.09:41
reidmopoyo: its psychosomatic09:41
TechHeadlol, imachine I am a total Linux beginner I installed Ubuntu 8.10 and just made all updates that's about it09:41
reidmopoyo: it probably doesn't sound better =P09:41
snake98yes thats right ectospasm its creative audigy  2 ZS09:41
ectospasmsnake98: what's right?09:41
imachineTechHead, type in the terminal 'sudo apt-get install linux-backports-modules-intrepid'09:41
snake98can you tell me how to do step by step09:41
imachineTechHead, and pass your password.09:42
Nitrox22Xorg crashes whenever i boot ubuntu. Any solutions>09:42
imachineTechHead, it should install newer drivers for your card, amongst other things.09:42
TechHeadimachine: gonna give it a shot09:42
xnevermorehey. do I need cron if I have anacron installed? or do they do different things?09:42
TechHeadnice09:42
TechHeadbrb09:42
snake98i said its sound just not playing09:42
ectospasmsnake98: there should be a speaker icon in your system tray, right-click on it and select mixer settings, or whatever it's called.09:42
mopoyoreid, it really does sound better09:42
reidNitrox22: what graphics card are you using?09:42
gatienhi09:42
Nitrox22reid, I am using ubuntu in virtualbox09:42
imachineTechHead, tho, if it works as it does now, I don't think it's that big a deal.09:43
purvesh_TechHead: what command i hav type at terminal for ssid or bssid for wireless wifi connection at ubuntu09:43
imachineTechHead, don't come back if it breaks your system ;P09:43
TechHeadhhahahaha09:43
imachinepurvesh_, use networkmanager.09:43
TechHeadI already d/l the stuff09:43
gatienI search a graphical tool to manage qos rule on ubuntu09:43
reidNitrox22: im not familiar with virtualbox, it is a virtual machine?09:43
TechHeadimachine: kk, done, what now?09:43
Nitrox22reid, yes09:43
reidNitrox22: what OS are you running the VM from?09:43
imachineTechHead, type modinfo ath9k09:43
Nitrox22reid, Windows XP Pro SP309:44
purvesh_imachine: i tried but they want bssid or ssid or mac address09:44
imachineTechHead, if you find info about nohwcrypt09:44
imachineTechHead, then you have the new drivers.09:44
axsd9dcan anyone suggest a good translating tool for ubuntu( freespeak doesn't work)09:44
imachineTechHead, just need to reboot then and you'll use the newer ones.09:44
imachineTechHead, if you encounter problems like being unable toconnect to wifi,09:44
reidNitrox22: well, personally I would do it the other way around.  Windows does not like linux very much09:44
stiev3I'm giving /home it's own partition, how much room should I allot / asuming I have 150 GB to work with?09:44
TechHeadlol, so see you in a minute hopefully imachine09:44
imachineTechHead, just remove those drivers by typing: 'sudo apt-get purge linux-backports-modules-intrepid'09:45
purvesh_imachine: if u know then pls help me09:45
TechHeadthx for the tip09:45
reidstiev3: root should never need more than 10G09:45
reidstiev3: it depends on how you handle /usr/bin09:45
imachineTechHead, it could be a bit more than just that package, like linux-backports-modules-yourkernelversion'09:45
reidstiev3: if you put full programs into /usr/bin you will need more space allocated to root09:45
Nitrox22reid, But my Ubuntu 8.10 was working fine. But the problem is with 9.04. I submitted my error report so it would help the developers09:45
imachineTechHead, you can just type in apt-get purge linux-backports-modules-[press TAB here] and it will autocomplete the package name09:45
imachineTechHead, but it should work okay!09:46
reidNitrox22: jaunty is still very much in beta stage.  it uses x.org 1.609:46
tomcylhello all09:46
reidNitrox22: I would suggest trying to VM intrepid instead09:46
TechHeadkk, rebooting09:46
imachinepurvesh_, I don't understan09:46
TechHeadsee you soon .... I hope :)09:46
imachinepurvesh_, you need MAC of BSSID ?09:46

blockywhat I don't get is why the error says canonical.com even when i change the mirror09:51
TechHead54 ;)09:51
imachineif it does, you'll just have to wait till next kernel or wireless update ;)09:51
imachineTechHead, so mission accomplished I reckon? :)09:51

reidNitrox22: what was your question?09:52
imachineTechHead, that's what this channel's for, mostly09:53
reidNitrox22: oh ok.. yeah its possible, but ATI has been a little shifty on their driver releasees09:53
purvesh_imachine: so how do i know my laptop "ssid" what i have 2 type in terminal 2 know my "bssid" or "ssid" now perfect09:53
reidNitrox22: I would not expect too much, but they have stated that they aim for x.org 1.6 support with their catalyst 9.4 release09:53
Phoboshey guys09:53
Anniekhanhello09:54
imachinepurvesh_, nearly good, tho at least I understand you now. when you click the icon on the top panel in Ubuntu's default setup, a list of available networks rolls down.09:54
Phobosi wanna fix my problem09:54
imachinepurvesh_, you just click one of those, and  that's the SSID. it connects automatically09:54
imachinepurvesh_, SSID=network name.09:55

Nitrox22reid, Thanks09:56
imachinePhobos, any better way to describe this unusual behaviour?09:56
TechHeadimachine: now to some serious stuff ... well not serious but rather important to me09:56
reidNitrox22: np, you have any other questions?09:56
imachineTechHead, shoot09:56
TechHeadI play Enemy Territory a lot09:56
imachineTechHead, it should work without problems.09:57
TechHeadit does not perfom at all on VISTA so I installed Ubuntu09:57
imachineTechHead, you can try getdeb.net09:57
TechHeadso far so good09:57
TechHeadBUT09:57
TechHeadI got strange input  lags09:57
Nitrox22reid, Not now. May be later if i have any problems can i ask in this channel?09:57
imachineTechHead, there's ready made installers and other stuff available on that page for Ubuntu.09:57
htrejhTechHead: yeah getdeb is better, cuz manually you'll have to things manually to have sound09:57
imachinehmm09:57
imachineTechHead, dunno about that :-)09:57
TechHeadkk09:57
purvesh_imachine: so i hav 2 blank that "ssid bssid" collum it will connect & what about "dhcp client id"09:57
reidNitrox22: feel free to email me, reidnabinger@yahoo.com09:57
TechHeadnoone does ;D09:57
TechHeadand actually it is not vital at all09:57
htrejhTechHead: basically you will have to execute a command to have sound09:57
reidNitrox22: but other than that, alot of good people idle in this channel, and have good advice to give09:58
imachineTechHead, it could be sound related tho. lags in general.09:58
TechHeadyes the echo cmd which enables OSS09:58
imachineTechHead, had that on other games.09:58
imachineit could be OSS that causes the hiccups.09:58
imachinetry disabling it and see if it fixes your problem.09:58
TechHeadso maybe I should try it w.o. sound then ?09:58
tomcyl<magnetron>, thanks09:58
imachineOSS is not grand.09:58
magnetrontomcyl→ cheers09:59
TechHeadI know, but ALSA or pulse just don't work with ET09:59
Nitrox22reid, Great. I am newbie to linux just have 6 months of experience.09:59

Phobosi dont know why09:59
purvesh_imachine: wait im comming in 2 minutes09:59
mopoyomagnetron, i mean more than the basics10:00
TechHeadit is hard in general to get all components in a laptop to work properly10:00
Phobosi have the latest drivers installed10:00
reidNitrox22: I've spent many weeks toiling over ATi drivers and atheros drivers lol10:00
reidTechHead: Amen10:00
Phobosmy video card is an ati radeon10:00
imachineTechHead, or whether it's what you need10:00
TechHeadfor example the webcam runs perfect: sound is problematic10:00
imachinePhobos, sorry, I still don't understand what it means "sparkles".10:00
Nitrox22reid, great. Any idea of when they release ATI Catalyst drivers for ubuntu?10:00
imachinePhobos, you'll have to be more clear on the subject.10:00
TechHeadNitrox22: you can download drivers at AMD10:01
reidNitrox22: I would have to say it will be about a week10:01
imachineTechHead, webcam audio is often horrors, since some of them use audio over usb.10:01

imachineit sometimes works okay but sometimes causes headaches.10:01
TechHeadNitrox22: ati-driver-installer-9-3-x86.x86_64.run10:01
reidNitrox22: it normally takes AMD about a week to port them to linux10:01
reidNitrox22: 9.4 is the first driver to support x.org 1.6 though, so I wouldn't expect amazing results10:02
TechHeadthis pkg gets you latest drivers of all ATI/AMD components in a comp like my laptop10:02
imachinePhobos, the last radeon card I had was 9200 or 9000.10:02
reidNitrox22: it should fix your problem though10:02
Nitrox22reid, Can i install for my windows. I have ATI Radeon X60010:02
imachinePhobos, and that worked with 'radeon' opensource driver.10:02
imachinePhobos, so I do not know :-)10:02
imachinePhobos, also, stop pm'ing me please.10:02
reidNitrox22: oh yeah, the ati drivers website should have the 9.4 drivers already for windows10:02
reidNitrox22: I don't know though, I haven't used windows in years10:02

reidNitrox22: I know nothing about OSS drivers for ATI, they are pretty poor atm10:05
TechHeadI downloaded a nice book for Linux startes lemme have a  look10:05
g4lt-lappyEntherman, why do you ned an entire xdmcp session over ssh, you can forward individual X clients over ssh with ssh -X10:05
Nitrox22The program 'fglrxinfo' is currently not installed.  You can install it by typing:10:05

gnu-dioI'm trying to get Video Editing in UbuntuStudio 9.04 working for me. My current problem is that the WMV (or DV-AVI created by WMM) files I need to edit are encoded with 44.1k audio, and when they are imported into Ubuntu by Kino, they get imported as 48k audio, and so get out of sync. I can't see how to import them with correct audio. Any ideas where I need to look to fix this?10:06
reidNitrox22: that means that you are not currently using proprietary drivers10:06
reidNitrox22: sudo apt-get envyng-core10:06
Enthermang4lt-lappy: What ? How ?10:06
reidNitrox22: then run "envyng -t"10:06
imachineTechHead, it's not necesarily all command line, i.e., it's not like every application is a wrapper for a command executed in a virtual terminal.10:06
reidNitrox22: choose install ATI drivers10:06
Phobosimachine send me some questions to answer you properly10:07
Nitrox22reid, check this - VGA compatible controller: InnoTek Systemberatung GmbH VirtualBox Graphics Adapter10:07
imachineTechHead, some are but afaik, most interact with the system directly via syscalls and /proc & friends.10:07
imachinePhobos, well, firstly, explain what you mean by sparkles.10:07
TechHeadimachine:  yes I know, but in the end when everything fails you need the cmd line to repair the sys10:07
g4lt-lappyEntherman, in a X terminal type ssh -X user@host (you have to have x forwarding enabled in /etc/ssh/ssd_config, but I think it's default), then just type in the name of the  X client you want to run10:07
imachinePhobos, dunno, make a summer project out of it if you will. record it on youtube10:07
reidNitrox22: not familiar, I would suggest apt-getting envyng-core though10:07
maxxistanyone know of a dev channel for ubuntu on ps3?  i wanna tell them what a good job they are doing.10:07
Phobosi can't know10:07
reidNitrox22: and then running envyng -t10:07
imachinePhobos, it's your problem, I can help you fix it, but it's hard to help you think how to ask.10:08
reidNitrox22: installing the drivers, and then rebooting.. you can then run fglrxinfo10:08
TechHeadLinux is making great progress and this is actually the 1st time I got Linux running without a hassle, but windows is still MUCH more userfriendly10:08
TechHeadstill I will stick to Linux as much as possible10:08
imachineTechHead, more or less yes, basically, you have a fully functional command line system at the same time as you get a graphical one.10:08
imachineat least regarding basic and less basic system maintenance.10:08
Phobosso i just said that i cant watch properly my movies because the image "freeze" i can watch a few minutes and then the screen "freeze" or sparkles10:08
TechHeadimachine: this is why I try to make the move10:08

Phobosright now ???10:09
g4lt-lappyTechHead, while you have the right to your opinion on linux vs windows, we do too, and since you're in a linux distribution channel, you can guess what ours is10:09

eth01(not VLC)10:13
imachinePhobos, 1) check your /var/log/dpkg.* for packages installed 3 days ago.10:13
EnthermanPhobos: What was the last thing you did, before it started to freeze ?10:13
imachinePhobos, 2) disable compiz for now10:13
reidNitrox22: envyng -t will install the ATI drivers, once they are installed fglrxinfo will give you the version10:13
Phobosetho have 2giga ram10:13
reidNitrox22: currently, you are using OSS drivers10:13
Phobosi dont think so10:13
imachinePhobos, 3) wait for newer drivers if 1) prooves it's the graphics drivers that caused the failure.10:13
reidNitrox22: they are of a completely different breed, and are most likely only geared for 2D rendering10:14
Phobosi installed compiz manager10:14
Phobosto get the cube10:14
imachineI'm 99% sure it's ati drivers not keeping up with some X.org changes.10:14
Nitrox22reid, My ubuntu struck. it shows me a black screen after installing ATI drivers10:14
EnthermanThen that is your problem :)10:14
EnthermanPhobos: Uninstall compiz, reboot.10:14
imachinePhobos, turn it off completely10:14
Phobosi will remove compiz ?10:14
Phobosright now ?10:14
gujaHm. When I add medibuntu repo and try to install skype under Jaunty amd64, it pulls me 32bit Skype when doing apt-get install skype. Why?10:14
reidNitrox22: installed through envy?10:14
eth01Phobos: you are missing my point. it does not matter how much ram your desktop has... more if it's working the way it should be.10:14
EnthermanPhobos: Yes.10:14
Nitrox22reid, Yep10:14
imachineguja, there's no 64bit skype,afaik10:14
reidNitrox22: hmm, any way to restart the VM?10:14
reidNitrox22: I would like to see the version that fglrxinfo gives you10:15
Phobosok i will do that and i say you if that fix my problem10:15
imachineguja, it uses binary compatibility with 32bit apps on 64bit installs.10:15
imachineguja, thank skype.com10:15
imachine:-)10:15
gujaIdiots.10:15
gujaimachine, is it harmless to install all those 32bit libraries and run 32bit programs under amd64?10:15
reidNitrox22: I could compare it to my version, and if its much lower I would advise you to build the ATI drivers manually10:15
imachineguja, perfectly harmless.10:15
Nitrox22reid, After reinstalling it asked to me to restart but when i restart it shows me a blank screen10:15
imachineguja, ubuntu automates the process anyway10:16
gujaimachine, thank you very much for answers.10:16
imachineguja, also, you can use a skype-static version.10:16
EnthermanPhobos: It will :)10:16
imachineguja, that has all the required libs built in so you don't need to pull many deps.10:16
g4lt-lappyspeaking of compiz, i got a cool idea for macbooks or whatever, if you can figure out how to get the accelerometer to actually show up as a button press in xkb, use the shaking of the laptop to generate a switch dekstop or whatever the compiz equivalent is10:16
gujaimachine, skype-static is? 32bit also?10:16
imachineyea methinks.10:16
Phobosi hope entherman10:16
gujaAham, it has dependencies inside.10:16
gujaGot it.10:16
reidNitrox22: hmm... there is no text from the even from the very beginning of the VM's boot?10:17

imachineit worked.10:25
imachine-,-10:25
imachinereid, yes.10:25
FloodBot2imachine: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.10:25
imachinereid, it's insanely fast, compared to ext3.10:25
reid@FloodBot2: stfu10:25
reid=P10:25
imachinereid, both for read, small file operations and large file operations like unpacking many rars.10:26
reidimachine: I could imagine when you dpkg -i *.deb for a folder with like 50 debs10:26
reidit would be faster as well10:26
clearscreenimachine: is it really 'insanely' fast? i was thinking MINOR speed increases :P10:26
imachinethere was some minor setback with deleting files.10:26
imachinebut it's fixed now methinks.10:27
imachineclearscreen, it's a good 5-10 seconds faster to boot.10:27
imachineclearscreen, and during certain operations it's many times faster. maybe it's placebo.10:27
clearscreenimachine: worth  a shot I guess, im already running jaunty10:27
reidwell my lappy is already under 20 seconds boot10:27

ubottuSorry, I don't know anything about ext410:27
imachineclearscreen, I haven't calculated it.10:27
reid!ext310:27
ubottuext3 is the default filesystem on Ubuntu, and the most popular on Linux. You can read/write from Windows to ext3 via http://www.fs-driver.org10:27
imachineclearscreen, it's good to do it quick enough, since you need to rewrite everything if you migrate from ext3, in order to benefit from ext4.10:27
reid!ReiserFS10:27
ubottureiserfs is a journalling file system, which outperforms many others on I/O operations, but has drawbacks (such as increasing likelihood of data loss, and introducing latency unsuitable for gaming or real-time audio). Using !ext3, the default on Ubuntu, is *highly* recommended. A read-only Windows driver is available at http://p-nand-q.com/download/rfstool.html10:27
imachinereiser screwed me over many times.10:28

imachine!xfs10:28
ubottuxfs is a high-performance journaling filesystem originally developped by Silicon Graphics for their IRIX OS. It is now fully supported by Linux so you can install Ubuntu on it if you wish. More info at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/XFS10:28
Phobosi relly dont know how to fix it10:28
reidlol realy?10:28
reidimachine: the reiser thing that is10:28
imachinereid, yes, back in the day10:28
imachinereid, it was more a linux problem10:28
mopoyowhy thankyou reid10:28
Phobosplease help me10:28
reidimachine: I heard that reiser frags much less though... but then again I have never had a frag problem with ext310:28
reidmopoyo: what are you thanking me for?10:29
imachinereid, it was a problem regarding linux mounting dirty fs.10:29
mopoyo<reid> !ReiserFS10:29
imachinereid, which it shouldn't have done.10:29
reidmopoyo: lol =P np10:29
imachinereid, fscking later caused data loss.10:29
clearscreenNOTE: by doing so, new files will be created in extents format, but this will not convert existing files. However, they can be transparently read by Ext4.10:29
clearscreensigh..10:29
mopoyosorry not that.. i meant reid> !ext310:29
reidimachine: yeah I stick to ext2 for boot, and ext3 for root/home, call me oldschool haha10:30
imachinereid, it's a good combo10:30
reid!ext210:30
ubottuSorry, I don't know anything about ext210:30

mopoyoclearscreen, i don't know..... maybe the ubuntu community is really nice?11:00
DizzyDooHi, Linux newbie running Apache on Ubuntu Server. When I visit my site, everything in the /var/www/ folder works fine, but items in subfolders have a 'Forbidden' error on them (when in browser). This is something to do with the folder permissions right?11:00
clearscreenmopoyo: nice, possibly... but i'm 100% sure they have something better to do with their time11:00
abby_clearscreen: Because sometimes ppl find it hard to learn on their own, especially if it's something very abstract or if you're not so much into, let's say computers11:00
mopoyoIs anyone willing to tutor me and spread their knowledge of ubuntu?!11:00
zirodayDizzyDoo: yep, one sec11:00
zirodaymopoyo: I have already given you a link. Nobody is willing to.11:01
Baskt_Casemopoyo: seriously, your best hope of something like that, is your local university, or community college11:01
Baskt_Case40-80 bux for some classes could be worth alot more11:01
Baskt_Caseu kno?11:01
Baskt_Casei kno the local CC here has computer science courses at night and on weekends too11:02
clearscreenabby_: that isn't the answer to my question ;) I understand perfectly fine why someone would want a personal tutor.. But why someone would spend his time tutoring a complete stranger in something that can quite easily be picked up upon solo ... well it boggles my mind11:02
zirodayDizzyDoo: they have to be executable (the folders)11:03
clearscreenbut perhaps this is a better conversation for #ubuntu-offtopic11:03
zirodayDizzyDoo: so sudo chmod a+x /path/to/folder11:03
mopoyoclearscreen, you probably wouldn't understand what's it's like helping someone else ;)11:03
abby_clearscreen: to cut long story short: there might also be ppl who enjoy that! although it's a bit masochistic :>11:04
clearscreenmopoyo: why do you think I am in this channel?11:04
mopoyoclearscreen, it's not just about saying "google is your friend"11:04
DizzyDooziroday: the folders are currently at chmod 755 (executable for everything). The command seems to make no difference either11:04
clearscreenmopoyo: when have I ever done that?11:04
mopoyoclearscreen, I'm not sure11:04
abby_yeah, that's why I use debian, so I can always say things like: "Google is your friend ;)"11:04
abby_just a joke...11:05
clearscreenmopoyo: then why assume that I have? :)11:05
zirodayDizzyDoo: err stick a hello.html file in that is a+rwx and see if it appears in the file listing11:05
mopoyoclearscreen, I'm saying other people in this channel do that11:05
clearscreenmopoyo: and I can see where they're coming from in most cases, this is a ubuntu support channel, not a library for linux-related questions that are answered in the first results on google11:08
DizzyDooziroday: Thanks for trying, I fixed it by reassigning the www-data apache group to own all the files within there (no idea why they weren't owned already)11:08
zirodayDizzyDoo: ah, that would help :). Have fun11:08
fastaHow can I mute my sound at boot in 8.10?11:10
fastaOr how to have alsamixer remember the last settings at boot?11:10
zirodayfasta: you want to mute the bootup sound, or have the sound always muted?11:11
fastaziroday: Just mute everything, until I run alsamixer or whatever application to unmute.11:12
zirodayfasta: it should remember your settings, i.e. if you had it muted when shutting down it will mute when starting up11:12

ChowderSo compiz won't work with my computer now because my gfx card reached a "blacklist". However, its ok. I want to install e17. What I had in mind was using Gnome with e17 and using thunar instead of nautilus by default. Is this possible?11:15
mopoyowhich version of ubuntu should i get?11:16
zirodayChowder: yep11:17
imstnor8.1011:17
ikt9.0411:17
mopoyoimstnor, why 8.1011:17
zirodayChowder: but what do you mean e17 with gnome? As in pick n' mix?11:17
mopoyoi read that all non-LTS versions aren't stable11:17
Chowdermopoyo, 8.04 is the Long Term Service Release and is the most stable. 8.10 is a regular release and is still pretty stable. 9.04 is a beta.11:17
imstnorIm running xubuntu on my pendrive11:17
Chowderziroday, I guess you could call it that11:18
imstnorits stable11:18
mopoyoi'm on 8.1011:18
zirodayChowder: well sure, that would be possible.11:18
Chowderziroday, either that or just get rid of all things gnome and use e17 exclusively11:18
zirodayChowder: that being easier :)11:18
mopoyoI installed OSS, removed it and sound no longer worked11:18
mopoyono one could help fix it >.>11:18
imstnoro11:19
imstnorI see11:19
Chowderziroday, now that I think about it, I would like to just get rid of gnome all together11:19
imstnorthing is that I installed a bunch of packages and the system got screwed11:19
ChowderI still want to have the same login manager and all that, though11:19
imstnorI figured it to be on account of the work load I put on the system11:20

oCean_!latest | mopoyo11:46
ubottumopoyo: Packages in Ubuntu may not be the latest. Ubuntu aims for stability, "latest" may not be a good idea. Post-release updates are only considered if they are: fixes for security vulnerabilities, high impact bug fixes, or unintrusive bug fixes with substantial benefit. See also !backports.11:46

xray7224mopoyo, why not11:50
magnetronmopoyo→ because it's tested and we give you support with it11:50
oCean_mopoyo: 1) because you have NO reason at all to use 7.2 over 7.1  2) because otherwise you will have to compile it yourself, and might run into dependency problems and such11:51
magnetronmopoyo→ if you use any other version than the one from the repos, you are on your own and we don't offer any support for it11:51

oCean_imstnor: since it seems you don't have run into a very specific issue (yet), you might want to start in this pocketguide (free download: http://ubuntupocketguide.com/download.html)12:01
clearscreenmaxagaz: you can use a combination of 'ls', 'cat', 'grep', and 'awk'12:02
oCean_maxagaz: use grep  "grep <string> *"12:02

oCean_magnetron: grep -i to make case insensitive and grep -R to do recursive (i.e. including subdirectories)12:03
oCean_magnetron: ah, not for you12:03
xray7224mopoyo, some would argue that learning to stick with the older would be a better option but if u must then take a look at the dependances on the page i sent you ull have to get them (if they depend on something you will have to get them too) you would be as well off moving up to jaunty12:03

Dillizardrowner whats the model of your nvidia12:06
fastadrowner: for example, I had a card for which I know it works perfectly with kernel version 2.6<very old> and it also works on Windows with the original drivers, but nvidia simply dropped support in order to force people to upgrade.12:06
drownerDillizar: GeForce4 420 Go rev a312:07
drowneraccording to lspci12:07
Dillizargo to nvidia and see wich drivers it use drowner12:08
fastadrowner: it is their business model. The chips and so on can probably last for 20 years or so, but they introduce certain bad components (like fans) which are designed to break after a few years so that people need to buy "new hardware", because it is "broken". It's a big waste from an environmental point of view, but good for business.12:08

aarHi, every time I plug in my external drive and kde auto-mounts it, a new folder is created  in the /media directory that is based on the drive's label, rather than simply mounting on the directory name that is already there (e.g. the drive label is foo, so when I plug it in it creates foo-1, then the next time it creates foo-2, and so on, rather than just mounting on foo). What's causing this behaviour?12:21

clearscreenmopoyo: you shouldn't mix jaunty with intrepid repositories, just need to grab intrepid-backports (the software versions will be similar to that of jaunty, I didn't specify this clear enough).. you will probably want to use pins to set the priority of the backports lower than the actual repositories.. then you'll need to apt-get update and then install using '-t'12:31

Halitechdarkvertex, possible, let me check that although flash works on other sites15:20
sipiorSliderMan: 256MB is the *bare* minimum for running ubuntu. removing your swap partition means that the computer has few options when it runs out of memory. how long did you give the machine after you tried to log in?15:20

sipiorSliderMan: yep, no trouble15:26
cellofellowyowshi➜ pulseaudio isn't the most stable around.15:26
cellofellowyowshi➜ I think there are instructions to remove it. let me check15:26
yowshicellofellow: i cant just remove the pulseaudio entry in synaptic?15:27
Bhavesh2177i want to print blank space for no. of time through bash15:27
Berserkuryowshi: I would not recommend that15:27
cellofellowyowshi➜ not that simple, 'cause gstreamer and such need somewhere to send the sound. At the least you'll have to reconfigure stuff to directly access alsa.15:28
yowshiBerserkur: why is that15:28
cellofellowyowshi➜ PA sits between your apps and alsa, just so you know.15:28

yowshiBerserkur: pulse audios emulation of esd crashes damn near daily for me so i am trying to fix that issue15:29
yowshisome days it crashes multiple times15:29
cellofellowyowshi➜ PA doesn't crash daily for me but it crashes now and again, and all I need to do is run "pulseaudio" with the run dialog (or Do) and it's back.15:30

yowshicellofellow: which can happen several times a day15:30
sipiormorey: what program were you running to determine that you had a virus?15:31
cellofellowyowshi➜ sounds like you have pidgin trying to access alsa directly which it shouldn't be doing, it should be going through pulseaudio.15:31
moreyI was just online at myspace15:31
cellofellowyowshi➜ pidgin never conflicts with PA for me.15:31
sipiormorey: you're sure this wasn't some "You have a virus!!" pop-up advertising nonsense?15:31
moreyyes15:31
* cellofellow thinks pidgin has native pulseaudio support and doesn't go through the esd emulation.15:31
yowshicellofellow: pidgin is configured on automatic for sound15:32
moreymy computer did a scan15:32
sipiormorey: then what program reported the virus?15:32
cellofellowyowshi➜ then it's your GNOME settings.15:32
danfgis there a runlevel where X is not loaded?15:32
moreyI'm not sure15:32
yowshicellofellow: yeah my sound is set to alsa which i prefer because i found it works better for everything else15:32
sipiordanfg: not by default anymore, but you can set up the symlinks in /etc/rc.d to create one.15:33

Riyahello sir how can i use "cout" key word in c++ programming when i use <iostrem> plz help me15:33
cellofellowyowshi➜ but the trouble with alsa is it's a bit dodgy on its hardware or software mixing support which pulseaudio rocks at. Conflicts abound when you do that. If only 1 process is accessing alsa, in this case pulseaudio, it makes things a lot simpler.15:33

clearscreenRiya: you should try #c++, but to answer your question, you use it like so: std::cout << "Hi";15:35

grawitymorey: ClamAV maybe ... but I don't believe you have one on Ubuntu.15:35
cellofellowyowshi➜ like I've said before, most gnome apps expect an esd-compatible sound server so removing it will only confuse them. If you want to remove pulse then go ahead, google it. I've gotten pulse working fine for me (except Audacity but Jokosher looks promising).15:35
sebsebsebmorey: yes you can use  clamav or some such to scan Windows for viruses15:35

ubottuIn Ubuntu all runlevels except 0,1 and 6 are by default equal. Also keep in mind that Ubuntu now uses !Upstart instead of System V init so there is normally no /etc/inittab.15:36
sipiordanfg: you can make sure that /etc/rc2.d and /etc/rc3.d are identical, save for the change to the gdm symlink. they should then be exactly the same.15:36

Can someone help find me a workaround so I can stop editing video in windows?15:37
LjLRiya: it cannot work "in terminal" if by terminal you mean the linux shell, as it's a C++ instruction. #c++ is an IRC channel, just like this one.15:37

xnmrphHi. With vsftpd, is it possible to specify a particular directory for all users uploading data to? e.g. Rather than uploads going to /home/usera/ftp and /home/userb/ftp, can you specify it so they just upload to (e.g.) /media/raid ?19:10
[MindVirus]mib_p0ul5tsv, here's the thing though -- X should run without an xorg.conf.19:10
[MindVirus]In fact that's when it uses its safest settings.19:11
[MindVirus]So there's least probability of error.19:11
mib_p0ul5tsv[MindVirus]: seems not in this case, it has, well messed up, could this be due to the ubuntu 9.04 beta ?19:11

doonermechtn, I use proftpd  aswell (then again I maintain the tds modules for it :) )19:48

g4lt-lappyJaneDoe, it has a MTA.  exim I think, and you setting the notifier is prollly as simple as configuring watch or another program to notify on additions to the file19:56

grkblood13dooner, ok maybe i should explain what im trying to do20:01
ttd4can an existing /dev/sda harddrive with reiserfs paritions be converted to raid1 by adding another drive, changing the /dev/sda paritions to fd, copying over this parition scheme to the 2nd drive, mkreiserfs on the 2nd drive, mknod, and then mdadm to create the array?20:01
grkblood13im trying to convert this mkv file so i can burn it and watch it on my ps320:01

WAR-JCim running cod4 with wine and getting 30fps and less using a 9800GT20:02
WAR-JCanything I can do to improve performance?20:02
grkblood13so what do i need to do to get their?20:02
doonergrkblood1, google for mkv ps3 and I think you should find what you need20:02
phh451I noticed there have been bug reporting about bugging sound: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pulseaudio/+bug/35697720:02
ZeZuWAR-JC, would you get any better in windows ?20:02
grkblood13yea, i found mkv2vob but that prog isnt supported on linux20:03
WAR-JC125fps in windows20:03
grkblood13as far as a ican tell20:03
WAR-JCgeforce 9800GT20:03
dooneryou can pull the audio and video out of the mkv, and then rebuild them into a different container.(like say avi).20:03
ZeZuWAR-JC, there are a few other solutions more geared towards games, but some of them are commercial20:03
ZeZuWAR-JC, one question however, is what driver are you using?  the restricted nvidia driver ?20:03
WAR-JCnot sure im new to linux20:03
WAR-JCI updated to 180.44 I think20:04
ZeZuok20:04
grkblood13dooner, any tipcs on a prog i can use to pull it?20:04
ZeZuthat is the restricted nvidia driver, good20:04
doonergrkblood1, you need to know what codec is inside the mkv file20:04
ZeZuWAR-JC,  I dont know then, i never use wine20:04
WAR-JCright driver?20:04

jon23dWe're getting a new computer today, and I want to copy everything from mine to it (and hopefully change the username).  However; the hardware is completely different.  The new one is 32bit, this is 64.  The new one has 1 hard drive, I have four.  I have multimon, new one has one.  Do I need to install software on new one first?  Is there an easy way to do this?20:51
mattbdvexic: I believe write might be already installed and that might do what you're after20:51
mrwesjdwarta1, you can also use ytalk20:51

NeT_DeMoNor better yet not dual screen but use an external source for your monitor20:52

rurapenteferronica: which also has 2 partitions.21:33
ferronica<rurapente> 200GB is just for data storage21:33
rurapenteferronica: ok, so it must be that vista doesnt know where it lives anymore21:33
ferronica<rurapente> both partition21:33
* artificialife has a question about ubuntu hardy nautilus21:34
rurapenteferronica: if it was grub, it would not boot anything else properly - and you say you have the right (hdx,x) entry so that only leave the problem on Vista's side.21:34
sebsebsebartificialife: just ask21:34
Mc-KayActionParsnip, this doesnt work, as soon as I get to the sesson login, I cant do anything, I see the cursor blocking in the input box, but it doesnt allow any input, nor can i move the mouse pointer into the box to input the user or pass21:34
HammerHead66guntbert: ty for the help21:34
artificialifei need to restore from the trash21:34
artificialifeand it seems there is no way to21:35
ferronica<rurapente> do you know any command for terminal, updating GRUB to read all partition again21:35

pteagueif i'm doing `dd if=/dev/hda of=/dev/hdb` ... does it matter whether /dev/hda is mounted read only or not?21:36
mingusthe terminal does this too, it turns grey for 10 seconds then starts up again the second I ask ubuntu to do any work :/21:36
ferronica<rurapente> you there???21:36
noodlesgcartificialife: right click end it should have a restore option.21:36
kanzieanyone have a link to how I set up networking on my new installed ubuntu LTS-server21:36

artificialiferythmbox is aboutto lose me 26gigs of music if i can't fix this21:37
rurapenteferronica: i dont know. to re-install grub you could do sudo grub-install /dev/sda  but i take no responsibility if it leaves you with a paperweight.21:37
noodlesgcartificialife: which version of Ubuntu are you running?21:37
artificialifehardy nautilus21:37
Mike_lifeguardI used to use PuTTY to SSH in to a remote server - what would I use instead on ubuntu now?21:38
ferronica<rurapente> then why its not reading partitions hd0,2 and hd0,321:38
noodlesgcartificialife: ah, rather than dragging and dropping, try copy and pasting21:38
artificialifeok21:38
magnetronMike_lifeguard→ use the regular terminal and the "ssh" command21:38
pteaguemrwes: /dev/hda is a partitioned drive with 1 of the partitions being my current OS... i have a separate drive for /home/ ... i'm wondering if mounting it read only is enough or if i need to boot from a live cd & do it that way21:39
Mike_lifeguardoh, ok21:39
Mike_lifeguardmagnetron: thanks21:39
grkblood13dooner, u still around bud?21:39
PhotoJimMike_lifeguard: there is also a PuTTy package for Linux, but I do that magnetron suggests.  far easier.21:39
mrwespteague, I'd boot from a Live CD and then dd the partition21:39
rurapenteferronica: is the partition with vista on it marked as active?21:39
ferronica<rurapente> yes21:39
SkyNetMasterhi, wouldbe greatfull for urgent helt :9 have locked out my self from the system :) I have changd fstab and added noatime, nodiratime, data=writeback, and now xserver wount start, and I get only in read-only system so I cant restore fstab. how can I fix this?21:40
pist0l-fishdoes ubuntu come with NTFS support out of the box? It seems to be mounting all of my USB drives as read-only. Looking at the access list, it says they're mounted rwx, but I cannot modify them21:40
magnetronMike_lifeguard→ quick intro: start the terminal and type "ssh username@ssh-server.example.com"21:40
ferronica<rurapente> and server installed in partition HD0,3 not in HD0,021:40
rurapenteferronica: ok then im out of ideas. i say broken vista install for some reason. maybe server 2003 mixed something up and overwrote its boot files, i am all out of ideas now21:40
got_milk4pisto0l-fish: yes, my NTFS partitions mount and work fine. Your USB drives are more likely to be FAT32 though unless you specifically formatted them as NTFS.21:41
ferronica<rurapente> LOL ok NP21:41
mrwespist0l-fish, did you install the ntfs-3g driver in ubuntu?21:41
pist0l-fishI did21:41
rurapenteferronica: FYI, maybe try only linux OS and get vmware-server its free and install you windows systems on it in future when you need so many on one machine.21:41
artificialifenoodlesgc: that still doesn't work21:41
pist0l-fishmrwes: it seems to have come with it, I have both mount.ntfs and mount.ntfs-3g21:41
got_milk4pist0l-fish: most USB drives come as FAT32...are you sure it's NTFS?21:41
mrwesahh..k21:41
ferronica<rurapente> hey21:42
pist0l-fishgot_milk4: not entirely too sure, actually. Maybe I should check :)21:42

xeojust can't work through in my mind how i should go about installing to external drive21:50
got_milk4pist0l-fish: okay, fuseblk is a block device which uses fuse, it's used to mount ntfs partitions/drives with read and write access for non-root users21:50

got_milk4pist0l-fish: so my guess would be that when you manually mounting you're doing it as root as opposed to ubuntu which will mount it as the user21:53
linuxuser600xeo: This is a how to, I found it on google http://ubuntukids.org/blog/?p=6921:54

got_milk4Michelle5: what happened?23:09
Skaperensebsebseb: nope ... the original windows install was hosed to unrunnable ... recovery disks won't boot ... so I wiped it and put ubuntu 8.10 on ... plan to put 9.04 on later when it's out23:09

linnymacman_: http://www.linuxcommand.org/lts0060.php23:10
sebsebsebSkaperen: I would suggest sorting yourself out with a Mandriva Live CD and trying that, because if your wireless works there, then yes  can get it working with  Ubuntu natively some how23:10
thhtloquitus_of_borg: yes. you must not mix up 32-bit ubuntu with 64-bit ubuntu23:10
Michelle5I so apt-get remove package and its wanting to install something first23:10
loquitus_of_borgthht: so basically I am planning to keep the /home partition intact and wipe out the others with a fresh install... good plan?23:11
got_milk4Michelle5: I thought it was already working? Did the steps we took earlier work?23:11
sebsebsebSkaperen: and you can also try running that .exe you were on about in wine23:11
sebsebsebSkaperen: and if it provides a .inf file :)23:11
Skaperensebsebseb: I know it worked under windows ... the wireless should be fine ... just need to know the steps to pick the right driver and install it23:11
Michelle5it showed on the ifconfig.23:11
thhtloquitus_of_borg: yeah thats fine .. should do the job23:11
sebsebsebSkaperen: no just, because it works  under Windows, does not mean that it will work under Linux natively23:11

Michelle5got_milk4, so you only way to get this working is on the net, and I cant get passed login either without a problem23:12
Skaperensebsebseb: there are steps for that wireless chip/card for Hardy ... and a page for Feisty listed people having success ... presumably the same driver those use would work in Intrepid ... I just need the steps to follow23:12

loquitus_of_borgeseven73: I don't know if that will work... I am not planning to reinstall the same distribution... I am going from 32 to 64 bit23:13
sebsebsebSkaperen: indeed23:13
got_milk4Michelle5: wait, you can't get past login?23:13
geofftbenitron: If you get "Missing Operating System", that means your boot sector is empty. You can install grub there. You'll also need to fill in /boot with grub's stage 2, etc. files, but that's fairly small23:13
Skaperensebsebseb: almost makes me want to run an older ubuntu23:13
Michelle5got, no23:13
sebsebsebSkaperen: what steps are you after?23:13
got_milk4Michelle5: what happens that you can't get past login?23:14
jdugkffcks, I believe, yes23:14
geofftbenitron: you don't need to install the grub _package_ on this thumbdrive. You can boot a live CD and run install-grub with your thumbdrive as the target23:14
eseven73loquitus_of_borg, hmmm not too sure then, maybe try the forums if no one else answers23:14
Michelle5got_milk4, if i reboot the box as normal, i get to the gnome login, at this point my keyboard or mouse does not work23:14

jimisrvroxis having issues trying to get his wmp54gs card to work. Installed ndiswrapper and the win driver and nothing is working. I think I might not have blacklisted the default driver. Help would be appreciated.23:15
Skaperensebsebseb: will steps for Hardy work on Intrepid?  I'm guessing the answer will be "no idea"23:16
got_milk4Michelle5: unfortunately this problem seems to be more severe than i first thought. unfortunately i'm out of suggestions for you, maybe someone else can help you out?23:16
sebsebsebSkaperen: you may not even need a driver for  wireless in Mandriva, because it will just work.    that was the idea to test the Live CD to find out if it does, because if it works natively in Mandriva,  then  should be able to in Ubuntu.    the other idea was bugger native, and  if you can get a .inf for the windows driver, do it in ndiswraper23:16
Michelle5got_milk4, i cant just reinstall, before there is way to must on here, if i could see the usb drive in /media/ i could back stuff up23:16
Michelle5got_milk4, i hope someone could?23:16
sebsebsebSkaperen: the answer is, yes probably23:16
got_milk4Michelle5: i'm hoping, i have to leave for awhile, but if you're still here when i come back i can try my best to help some more23:16
sebsebsebSkaperen:  Hardy and Intrepid  are very similar,  except for stuff like xorg, which has nothing to do with wireless anyway23:16
linnyanyone know of a multi threaded ftp client that has support for multiple servers maybe in tabs ?23:17
Skaperensebsebseb: it's known to work in Feisty and Hardy on this exact laptop model with this exact wireless card ... so I'm assuming it will work in Linux once the right steps are done ... all I need is the right steps23:17
screamIs there a website I could find the answer on?23:17
eseven73linkd, maybe filezilla23:17

Mark_JonesIm thinking of just throwing in one of my old 3Com cards if I have to, but would rather not if I dont have to.23:19
Double_Kill2Mark_Jones: I'm new to linux but i've heard of ndiswrapper, it makes non-supported cards work with a windows driver23:20
eseven73linny, if all else fails you could run it as different users, something like su linny2 and run filezilla in terminal, then su linny3, su linny4 etc, etc. :D23:20
chordoggis ndiswrapper only for wireless network cards?23:20
sebsebsebchordogg: yes only for wireless23:21
mrpresidentchordogg, I think it works for ethernet as well23:21
sebsebsebchordogg: and Ethernet should just work23:21
Mark_Joneshmm never heard of it.23:21
Double_Kill2yeah as soon as you plug in a ethernet cable it should work no matter what23:21
geniindiswrapper works for any ethernet adapter, not just wireless23:21
mrpresidentsebastien, doesn't it support some broadcom cards?23:21

eseven73linny, but my second recommendation would only work I think if of course that user2, 3, 4 existed, and they had a /home23:21

proqloquitus_of_borg: for example, if you want to run a game "xglo" and it requires 32-bit version of libX11, you have to install that 32-bit library to your 32-bit folder in ubuntu.  this may have changed in ubuntu 9.04, dunno23:37

abolethit would be better that way imo23:47

sebsebsebaboleth: I think your trying to troll a bit here, and if you want a distro where you got to compile like everything,  try  Gentoo or some such23:48
abolethlook at that23:48
abolethi''m not trolling23:48
abolethi'm not talking about compiling23:48

_Brun0_Anyone please help me installing my snd-hda-intel sound card? This is where i'm at: http://pastebin.com/m17d24a6e23:50
monraHello. Could someone say one of these 2 numbers please, 1 or 2?23:50
icerootmonra: 323:50
abolethanyway, what i meant about the package thing, it wouldn't look for source, but debian packages. it would actually in a way be more similar to windows than gentoo, but i think that would be good in this case.23:50
hy180monra is the best23:50
abolethbut it should have an option for source too23:50
abolethi actually plan on making this program23:51
monraiceroot: Well.. I need a really random number. So I'm asking here, a random said by a human should be random. So could you help me?23:51
LiMaOrandom between 2 choices isn't random23:51
FoShizzle_Brun0_: turn alsa on?23:51
abolethi wonder why no one else seems to have had this idea23:51
erUSULmonra: pi23:51
_Brun0_FoShizzle, how?23:51
monraLiMaO: Well.. it is! 50% to be 1, 50% to be 2? Why not ? :P23:51
FoShizzle_Brun0_: um try sudo /etc/init.d/alsa start23:52
abolethbecause i think its a great one. publishing software is too difficult at the moment, and playing catch up with the repos is just stupid.23:52

proqbitlbee isn't a joke, it's a great tool23:52
abolethyeah you can publish a single version of a program really easily, but to keep your users up to date is more hard than it needs to be.23:52

joaoI need some bash scripting help please23:53
GodfatherofEireAny ideas why I cant unlock the default keyring? I've tried no password, my password, and the root password, and none of those did the trick23:53
joaohttp://pastebin.com/d5edd16aa23:53
abolethis there something fundamentally wrong with my thinking or something, because i don't see why no one thought of anything like this.23:53
joaothat script works until the iptables lines23:53
FoShizzleproq: we were talking about to use enter as a punctuation on msn rather than on irc, that's the joke23:53
proqGodfatherofEire: the keyring is stored with the seahorse app23:53
abolethany responses?\23:54
proqFoShizzle: ah23:54
FoShizzleproq: yeah, it's kind of lame but yeah :P23:54

abolethdoes anyone think my idea for changing the package manager is good?23:54
FoShizzle_Brun0_: wake up!23:54

proqaboleth: some unix distros *do* just grab updates automatically from sources23:56
abolethi bet that'll get answered before me23:56
abolethproq: which ones?23:56
proqaboleth: openbsd23:56
J-_aboleth: Try installing xserver-xorg-input-joystick23:57
proqaboleth: gentoo as well23:57
abolethproq: why is that not seen as superior?23:57
abolethi mean23:57
_Brun0_FoShizzle, 1 sec leme double check.. According to lspci -v it is: Kernel modules: snd-hda-intel. I'll check in laptop manual.. =P 1 sec brb23:57
abolethbesides the source thing, but you don't need to do that23:57
J-_aboleth: Also check out jscalibrator to calibrate it23:57
proqaboleth: because building sources takes a lot of energy and that takes time and money23:57
proqenergy as in kilowatts23:57
GodfatherofEire1How would I go about updating the default keyring password?23:57
abolethJ-_: one source said not to use it23:57
abolethbut i'll try23:57
J-_aboleth: hmm23:58
AizawaUm, is there a way to get the absolutely latest version of jaunty? I.e, you don't need to update it after installation? Like a daily build or something23:58
