[00:00] matrix_, System->Administration->Hardware Drivers [00:00] i seem to have a problem with my eth0 [00:00] !notify [00:00] Sorry, I don't know anything about notify [00:00] anyone available to help? [00:00] russianzilla: it has no options [00:00] Is it me or is downloading from ubuntu for packages really slow [00:00] asus eah2600 pro AGP [00:00] qbrix: the mirrors are overloaded [00:00] !slow | qbrix [00:00] qbrix: The Ubuntu repositories and ISO mirrors are currently under heavy load due to the release of the latest edition. Please consider using !torrents to download ISO images, and be patient with APT updates. [00:00] !slow | qbrix [00:00] Nullifi3d: What seems to be your primary issue? [00:00] Due to limitations in my video hardware, for me to have a multi-monitor configuration, I need to set it up so that the two monitors are virtually placed vertically. Is there any way to set up X so that it can act as if it were set up so that the two monitors are arranged horizontally? i.e. I could move my mouse to the second screen from the right side of the first, instead of the bottom [00:00] jdu: no, actually, none of the files are larger than a single dvd [00:00] well it drops every now and then for unknown reasons [00:00] just bunches of small files [00:00] crdlb: Oh, ok, just wondering. Thanks for all your help! [00:00] it worked fine under 8.10 [00:00] corecode, I have twin-view... [00:00] ah, thought so [00:01] ill have to either go into terminal and type ifconfig or disable/enable to get it to start working again [00:01] I got this error: Gtk-Message: Failed to load module "globalmenu-gnome": libglobalmenu-gnome.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory when I tried to run gksu gedit /etc/apt/sources.list - Any idea? [00:01] cougarten: unless you can reproduce it, it's hard to justify filing a bug. If you're willing to keep the corrupted partition around in case an ext4 developer decides they'd like to look at it, I know what I'd do (reinstall with ext3 and leave it to the more skilled filesystem gurus to work out) [00:01] corecode, Are you sure your hardware can't support it? [00:01] h00k: it shows nvidia version 180 recommended is activated [00:01] Nullifi3d: Hmm. Are you connected to a router/switch? [00:01] im on a switch behind who knows what [00:01] matrix_, if it's active, you'll see a green light, have you restarted since you've activated it? [00:01] im at an appartment complex [00:01] -p [00:01] matrix_, ctrl-alt-backspace will do the trick too. [00:01] TheDracle: i am assuming you are talking to me, and yeah, the hardware cannot support it. Max virtual resolution is 2048x2048 with DRI [00:01] i annoyed because when i installed jaunty 9.04 it froze my pc [00:01] Nullifi3d: *That* can be problematic. Cable connection? [00:02] TheDracle, ctrl+alt+backspace is disabled by default in 9.04 [00:02] its prob fiber [00:02] minime: any ideeas ? [00:02] h00k, ... That's retarded. [00:02] !dontzap | h00k [00:02] h00k: To re-enable the Ctrl+Alt+Backspace combination that restarts your X server, you can install the "dontzap" package and use the command « sudo dontzap --disable » [00:02] TheDracle: http://chrisjohnston.org/2009/re-enable-ctrl-alt-backspace-904 === z00m|away is now known as z00m [00:02] i dont have problems otherwise [00:02] Mint`, I'm aware.

For your situation though with dvds, I do not know of a proper program (google a bit?) However, as I said a script that generates iso images of directories and burns them (both easy to do with script) would solve the problem. [00:03] ubuntu is the only os with problems [00:03] matrix_, What does, from commandline, 'xvinfo' output? [00:03] i have windows running right next to my ubuntu, its fine [00:03] always [00:03] Nullifi3d: Okay, so we can rule out other OS issues., [00:03] losher: oh I almost forgot, I was changing rights on files on my external drive when I lost all acess rights to many things (even all system icons where gone) that was the reason for my restart [00:03] matrix_, A bunch of info? Or like, nothing? [00:03] Is there any page or resource that outlines issues with firefox and flash after updating from 8.10 to 9.04? [00:03] hey [00:03] what's wrong with the new firefox udate? [00:03] hey all... hope some1 can quickly help me.... im in kubuntu and i want 2 know.... what is ubuntu app installer called? [00:03] my assumption is its a driver issue [00:03] meoblast001: I have written with brasero. [00:03] jdu: unless the directory is larger than the dvd can hold [00:03] Plight, you'll have to be more specific. [00:03] jdu: then it'd have to be split up [00:03] losher: but I really didn't change rights on my root partition [00:04] notknowu: synaptic [00:04] Nullifi3d: Perhaps you might try a new module for your ethernet card? [00:04] corehere thanks [00:04] TheDracle: http://www.pastebin.ca/1402373 my xv [00:04] Nullifi3d: What kind of ethernet card do you have? [00:04] im willing to try but i dont know how or what to get [00:04] cougarten: that's a suspicious coincidence. No chance you mistyped and changed the wrong thing? [00:04] i have an error message [00:04] give me a sec im gonna move irc to my other comp [00:04] after upgrading from 8.10 to 9.04, sound playback crackles and it seems like it is sped up. anyone have similar problem/know a solution?

[00:05] matrix_, Okay, can you do System->Administration->System Monitor? [00:05] what's a good vnc-viewer for XP? [00:05] ThDracle so why when i play movies on my vlc they are choopy but viavable [00:05] matrix_, And then play VLC? [00:05] losher: I used gksudo nautilus and I'm very shure I just used it on the external drive. And I just gave rights, I didnt restrict them [00:05] Bo7: you may want to ask in #windows [00:06] Any ideas why brand new Proliant ML350 G5 gets drasticly slower transfer speeds than proliant ML110 on exact same disk?

Would someone look at this pastebin and make a few suggestions?? thanks [00:06] http://paste2.org/p/191160 [00:06] Nullifi3d: Does that help at all? [00:06] when i upgraded it froze my pc then restarted to no gui [00:06] ill give it a shot [00:06] cougarten: Well, I'm not a betting man, but ext4 _is_ new and you have what sounds like a filesystem corruption, so.... [00:06] wall-e, did you have the ATI drivers installed? [00:06] so i booted in safe mode kinda fixed everthing [00:06] Nullifi3d: Altnernatively, you might check the manufacturer's website, if any, and see if there might be a module, or module source code there. [00:06] ati drivers? [00:06] losher: yea, I'm just reformating at the moment [00:06] gnome-settings manager has die after upgrading to jaunty. I reinstalled the package, but it still fails with WARNING **: Failed to acquire org.gnome.SettingsDaemon and failed to acquire name [00:06] TheDracle: i dont have vlc on system monitor, and i am watchin normal dvd movies [00:07] kholerabbi: did you check the md5?

[00:07] i am just wondering is there any counts of how many downloads happened for 9.04 [00:07] its a laptop [00:07] realtek something [00:07] Nullifi3d: lspci [00:07] cougarten: if this doesn't solve the problem, I'd like to hear about it [00:07] matrix_, Any luck with that? [00:07] Ok, burning the image to disk. [00:07] ty [00:07] losher: shure :) [00:07] thedracle: with what i dont have vlc on my system monitor options [00:07] what's the ubuntu equivalent of dir /s file* - I've tried various permutations of ls -R file* but can't make it work [00:07] PlasmaSheep: so you fixed something? [00:08] what's the process for sending error messages in irc? [00:08] matrix_, The system monitor will just show CPU usage. [00:08] Plight: what kind of error messages? [00:08] ok then so i'll get the 8.10 ISO, install, get ATI drivers and configure resolution/refresh rate and then update 8.10 to 9.04 ... just for the Ctrl+Alt+Backspace dumb feature (doesn't work with dontzap) [00:08] Plight: pastebin [00:08] jimmyyeah: locate [00:08] jimmyyeah, check the man page for locate [00:08] jimmyyeah: locate [00:08] histo: actually no :P [00:08] matrix_, Then you start VLC, and check to see if it's something like memory or CPU spike that causes the breakage. [00:08] jimmyyeah: or find . -name file* [00:08] Hello, ever since i installed jaunty, my X is crashing X Error of failed request: GLXBadDrawable, is there a way I could install the Nvidia 8800GTS drivers from nvidia website instead? [00:08] it's a firefox problem [00:08] thx [00:08] kholerabbi: give that a try make sure the iso is good [00:08] it says assertion failed and a bunch of lines of code [00:08] !md5sum | kholerabbi [00:08] kholerabbi: To verify the integrity of a download, use the md5sum - see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowToMD5SUM for more [00:08] I've just upgraded to Jaunty, and on boot, the boot stalls at "Starting up..." for about 60 seconds before booting. If I check dmesg after booting, it says: "ata1: link online but device misclassified, retrying", then "ata1: reset failed (errorno=-11), retrying in 10 secs" then 10 again, then 35, after which it boots.

The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu.com (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the channel topic) [00:09] Nullifi3d: Probably one of the best ways I've found to have a nice, neat listing of all hardware is the following: sudo lshw -html > filename.htm [00:09] Hi all, I'm having a video card Intel 945GM on my laptop Core2Duo 1.8Ghz, is there any driver updates I should do to the graphic\video card? because on ubuntu 9.04 Jaunty the system run slower than on the 8.10 [00:09] I tried both 32 & 64 bit editions. [00:09] losher: not yet. I'm in the process of writing the downloaded image to a disk. [00:09] gvfaewgrg: before you do, have you tried editing xorg.conf per google [00:09] When I open Nvidia XServer Settings from control panel, it thinks its running it non privelege mode, I can't edit any settings cause it can't save xorg.conf file. How can I run that software as "root" ? [00:09] crc-error: read the release notes about EXA [00:09] Transmission torrent client wants to use port 51413 & reports it is closed.

[00:11] Mike_lifeguard: usually you open a web page and navigate to the ip of your wireless router. Probably 192.168.1.1 [00:11] losher: i rather do the 8.10-> 9.04 thingie than terminal-ing myself to death to get de xorg.conf right... i'll have to constantly move between this PC and the problematic one and remember countless settings [00:11] !port > Mike_lifeguard [00:11] Mike_lifeguard: or 192.168.0.1 [00:11] Mike_lifeguard, please see my private message [00:11] matrix_, I've seen that with movies that are in 1080p and the processor simply cannot handle it [00:11] thanks. I just realized that it was likely the I am not typing this command right so that would be more human error than ubuntu's problem [00:12] matrix_, No spikes though, when the breakage starts to occur? [00:12] heres a stupid question! i got a netbook with jaunty 9.04 and whenever i open any windows it automaticly maximizes ! anyone know where to change this setting?

[00:15] histo: i've been using apt-get, [00:15] i dont think its source 'cuase all dvd's can not be bad quaility i can play them on my dvd player it plays awesome [00:15] matrix_: I had the same problem with VLC. You need to uninstall VLC using Synaptic, download the source tarball, then edit qt4.cpp (changing #if 0 to #if 1) [00:15] there any way to roll back from 9.04 back to 8.10 from a shell? i updated and vmware fusion is not playing nice [00:15] i have still no clue how to get the middle mouse button to work with my logitex mx1000. all the other buttons work (that totals 11)) [00:15] matrix_, Well, whatever ripped it must have transcoded it. [00:15] Then make and install, of course [00:15] any clue [00:16] keyboard and mouse doesn't get recognized [00:16] matrix_, And the transcoding could have messed up the elementary stream. [00:16] Plight: then use apt-get reinstall firefox [00:16] where to find info on tune2fs to trun ext3 to ext4 [00:16] nice xinerama support doesn't work with linux for nvidia drivers [00:16] Guest70165: google links to the ubuntu forums. [00:17] I guess ubuntu's servers are being stressed today :) [00:17] Have there been any reviews of the actual jaunty release? [00:17] histo: reinstall is an invalid operation? [00:17] Mike_lifeguard, quite a few;) [00:17] histo: OK, it's obviously not working on any burning ATM.. So would the Archive Mounter work :D? === soreau_ is now known as soreau [00:17] dkulchenko: a quick google shows you're not the only one. If the live cd sees your drives ok, I'd say your next move is to re-install from scratch [00:17] Mike_lifeguard, for instance: http://news.cnet.com/8301-1001_3-10226746-92.html [00:18] Guest4419: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1118295 [00:18] would anyone help me with a rather stupid problem...i need to change boot order to reinstall, but my bios screen flashes by too fast lol. i couldn't hit whatever key i need to in time even if i knew what it was [00:18] hey guys i have an issue,i wanna install or even live boot ubuntu 8.10 on my Desktop but after choosing the language and hit try ubuntu or install ubuntu,it gives me black screen on it busy box then i get buffer I/O error on device sr1,logical block , but when i try it on my laptop it works fine [00:18] have any of you heard about the prey script? [00:18] h8red: usually del or f1 or esc.. i normally just slap the keyboard like a madman [00:18] h8red, your BIOS flashes too quickly? [00:19] OK, rebooting. [00:19] losher: but if the system boots fine... [00:19] yes [00:19] i just put in 2 gigs of ram, and now the damn thing flies by [00:19] h8red, F1, F2, or del, esc, or just slam keys until you get into BIOS. What kind of computer? [00:19] losher: it's an inconvienence to wait 60 seconds before each boot, and a pretty big one, but it doesn't stop the system from booting [00:19] how do you chane directories in the console? [00:19] Plight: cd [00:19] Plight: cd [00:19] I downloaded the .iso from BitTorrent, now what? "After your download begins you'll be given additional instructions on how to create and use your Ubuntu CD.", but not for BitTorrent. [00:19] thedracle:its vlc that does not play illegal files, but Mplayer is playin fine hahah there is allways a solution to play movies [00:19] * Froad whacks wubi [00:19] h00k: AMD XP2800+ 2.07 ghz [00:20] can I use a DVD-RW for the ubuntu boot disk im making? [00:20] * dkulchenko is highly regretting the upgrade to Jaunty. [00:20] skierpage, you need software capable of burning an ISO to CD-R. are you running windows? grab the free program "imgburn" which is great [00:20] Froad, FWIW wubi timed out twice at the metalink/.iso stage for me. [00:20] mobo is a Gigabyte or Gygabyte or something. I was given this computer I don't know [00:20] h8red, in specific, is it a homebuilt machine or branded [00:20] Plight: sudo aptitude reinstall firefox do that in a terminal [00:20] homebuilt. [00:20] matrix_, mplayer just uses a different audio-video sync that probably works with however your stuff was muxed. [00:20] daftykins, thanks! Surely there's doc somewhere... [00:20] matrix_, VLC uses FFMPEG- which is more accurate. [00:20] h8red: try lspci -vvvv. it might give you the mobo name [00:20] h8red, yeah, try f1, f2, esc, del until you get into bios setup [00:20] dkulchenko: a slow boot is better than no boot at all, but any kind of unexplained disk anomaly is worrying, frankly. Continue at your own risk.... [00:20] thedracle: fsck vlc i think i will remove it 4 ever [00:20] hey guys i have an issue,i wanna install or even live boot ubuntu 8.10 on my Desktop but after choosing the language and hit try ubuntu or install ubuntu,it gives me black screen on it busy box then i get buffer I/O error on device sr1,logical block , but when i try it on my laptop it works fine [00:20] man it goes way too fast [00:21] matrix_, VLC is nicer :p [00:21] losher: is it a driver issue? [00:21] matrix_, It's really just that clip. [00:21] histo: i tried to reinstall firefox; sudo: unable to resolve host ... E: Invalid operation reinstall [00:21] matrix_, mplayer just uses a simpler A/V synch mechanism that just so happens to work better with messed up clips. [00:21] Abed, sounds like your CD drive may be faulty - have you tried running the disc check feature? [00:21] no all dvds that iam tryin to play they play extremly choopy on vlc [00:21] matrix_, I would keep VLC for everything else. [00:21] Plight: you have to type it in like I did. Using aptitude [00:21] i'm trying set up a dual monitor rig with Separate X-Sessions but apps will only appear on one monitor, anyone have any ideas? [00:21] skierpage: you can always download the ISO w/ another metalink client. that might be faster [00:21] Abed: hard drive error [00:21] can I use a DVD-RW for the ubuntu boot disk im making? [00:21] so is there a way to upgrade to ext4?? i guess reinstall? [00:21] dkulchenko: sorry, dunno. But are you willing to trust your data to it? [00:21] I've heard that jackalope is supposed to be snappier than ibex, both booting and running stuff. has that been the case for any of you? [00:21] matrix_, Well, whatever you're doing your ripping with is f'n them up when it remuxes the audio and video together. [00:21] miramardesign: There is. [00:22] can anyone help me install using the alternate disk? [00:22] Flannel how ? [00:22] arkanabar, I've definitely noticed this, yes. [00:22] Plight: or you can use apt-get --reinstall firefox [00:22] couldn't i like add the cdrom drive to the grub menu or something, then force it to come up [00:22] matrix_, VLC is playing it back faithfully- and mplayer is just calculating the presentation time stamps from the number of bytes obtained from the audio channel, and then synching it to the video. [00:22] Flannel is it faster?? [00:22] Plight: with sudo ofcourse. [00:22] and boot to the cd from there? [00:22] miramardesign: Here's one thread about it. I haven't verified it personally. Definately read the full thread before starting: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1118295 [00:22] Abed: can you paste full error?

[00:23] Froad, did you read http://distrowatch.com/weekly.php?issue=20081215#feature [00:23] vlc roxx [00:23] miramardesign: You can use tune2fs to enable the extents feature on your ext3 filesystem, which effectively turns it into ext4 [00:23] h8red, you want to change your boot order to CD first in your BIOS [00:23] can I use a DVD-RW for the ubuntu boot disk im making? [00:23] Flannel: miramardesign I notice a difference on a machine that I installed as ext4. Converting will only bennefit files that are newly written to disk. [00:23] miramardesign: It won't reallocate your existing files to use extents, though [00:23] Abed: you can try connecting external drive and install ubuntu or you can try installing over the internet just like live cd [00:23] harpreet :can't it is on the desktop and i am using the laptop , but the error is the same as i wrote [00:23] can anyone help me install using the alternate disk?

[00:24] Flannel what should i expect when i put in the alt disk [00:24] Steven10172: its rw anyways. [00:24] dkulchenko: ok, just be sure to backup anything you absolutely can't afford to lose...

[00:24] arkanabar, I don't emulate WoW but I've definitely noticed a speed difference [00:24] Froad: It asks the same questions the Desktop CD does. It's really straight forward.

[00:27] you can try 9.04 if you want , or you can open the box and check your IDE [00:27] histo, I tried doing a disk check- and it seemed happy with it. [00:28] wolter: Take a look at /etc/services btw [00:28] histo, Is the disk check crap?

[00:29] ReL1K, that should make reinstalling and reconfiguring easier, perhaps think about doing that [00:29] yea, was dreading but really wouldn't loose that much [00:29] since i got a shell can just trans over [00:29] harpreet i am trying another cd drive and waiting for the result [00:29] ReL1K: if you maek a seperate home then you can just blow out the / and all your files and settings will still be there.

[00:30] Plight: kill or killall [00:30] thedracle:time to go to watch some movies thank GOD its friday [00:30] Plight, once top is running, find the PID of the process you want to kill. hit "k" and it will ask for the PID; give that to top, and it'll do its best to kill the process. [00:30] cmroddy: right click on link in firefox and select copy url [00:31] harpreet wut's wrong with my HDD? [00:31] histo: i want to select the link title text, not the URL. i can get the URL easily. [00:31] Abed: inside the box IDE connections [00:31] cmroddy: just hilight one space to the left or right and drag accross the link. [00:31] Abed: may be your drive is not compatible with kernel or there is bad connection [00:31] I want to uninstall Ubuntu and install the netbook remix. Do I have to reset the MBR to get rid of grub or can I just formatmy Ubuntu side and install the new copy without fear? [00:31] harpreet ok i will check them, btw i have two hard disk drives so is that a problem? [00:32] Abed: you mean two physical hard disks? [00:32] histo, i only want part of the text, not the entire link. this comes up about 20 times a day for me. i end up retyping a lot of unselectable link text. if you don't know of a solution, that's fine.

Not sure if this is the best channel to ask in or not, but I just installed Jaunty, and I'm having difficulty configuring TV-out through my nVidia card to my 1080i tv. Anybody around here who can help out, or should I look elsewhere? [00:32] ElNerdoDegeek: you will have to reset the MBR. [00:32] Hi people XD [00:32] ElNerdoDegeek, if you're using the installer and you reformat, it will replace Grub by itself [00:33] Abed: option 1, go to bios and identify primary hard disk and check settings, option 2, remove one hard disk, you can install later [00:33] Is there a changelog for 9.04 somewhere? [00:33] mysphyt, depends on whether you're trying to play HD content. If so, computers really aren't for you. [00:33] Dvyjones: on the cd and on the download servers [00:33] Dvyjones: there are releasenotes also [00:33] OK, I booted in knoppix.

[00:34] PlasmaSheep: are you looking on the knoppx drive or your harddrive and what are you trying to do? [00:34] !who | PlasmaSheep [00:34] PlasmaSheep: As you can see, this is a large channel. If you're speaking to someone in particular, please put their nickname in what you say (use !tab), or else messages get lost and it becomes confusing :) [00:34] Abed: check your bios for settings on what drive to boot from and where to locate the operating system [00:34] ElNerdoDegeek, you could do that, you can just use the liveUSB to format it for you, it'll take care of all of it [00:34] histo: That had a typo [00:34] harpreet ok wait plz [00:34] histo: Linked to 8.10 release notes. [00:35] OK, they guy who was helping me left. [00:35] !tab [00:35] You can use for autocompletion of nicknames in IRC, as well as for completion of filenames and programs on the command line.

[00:35] mysphyt, see http://defectivebydesign.org/ [00:35] ElNerdoDegeek, good luck, I hope it works for you [00:35] histo, http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/releasenotes/904 doesn't actually say anything about changes in release 9.04. Where should I report web site content bugs like this. [00:35] skierpage, that is the release notes, not necessarily the changelog [00:36] skierpage: You want: http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/releasenotes/904tour [00:36] skierpage: er, sorry: http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/releasenotes/904overview [00:36] hi [00:36] can anyone help me with partitioning an external hard drive for install? [00:36] Froad: yep probably [00:36] ty [00:36] Froad: it's like a internal hard disk, excpet it's external, and you would need to get the computer to boot from it [00:36] arkanabar: I appreciate the argument, and am well aware of the problems DRM represents for free software and accessible content, but mine is more of a configuration problem than an ideological one. [00:37] i'm _Brian__ from before >.. [00:37] Nevermind, looked in the wrong place. [00:37] Froad: oh you again [00:37] but in any case i found out a lot of things [00:37] 1. wubi won't work for unexplained reasons [00:37] Froad: such as?

[00:39] Flannel: That returns two 'KNOPPIX_FS' entries, an 'msdos' entry, and an 'ntfs' entry. [00:40] sebsebseb: I"d like to use the alternate to get it onto the external, but would it not overwrite the contents of the disk without partitioning [00:40] PlasmaSheep: Why do you need the UUID?/ [00:40] PlasmaSheep: What are you trying to fix? === carlos is now known as Guest75852 [00:40] i have a problem with sound buffer,, it's not pure [00:40] any help ?

I believe the syntax is server:1 for example [00:40] it's the same on 8.04 8.10 and jaunty [00:40] UbbyCD, do you have a separate /home partition? [00:40] sebsebseb, no [00:40] no [00:40] Froad: ok [00:40] no seperate home [00:41] UbbyCD, if you do, your settings/themes should stay the same [00:41] hi of all [00:41] Flannel, histo: ubuntu doesn't get past the "waiting for root filesystem" stage on boot. I was told because it has the wrong uuid in /boot/grub/menu.lst [00:41] :) [00:41] 180/250gb free but not empty sebsebseb [00:41] they did [00:41] UbbyCD, if you don't, I might suggest doing that [00:41] UbbyCD: they changed gdm screen bakcground and stuff. [00:41] maybe i do and dont know it [00:41] Froad: normalley partitioning works well, always slight chance of data loss though, never happended to me though. and the amount of partitining I have done [00:41] how are u?

[00:44] Froad: Fat32 instead of NTFS, NTFS is better really, but used to be that not everything coud read and wirte to NTFS, I guess that's why it's Fat32 [00:44] mysphyt: I'm not sure if you can do 1080i over component [00:44] PlasmaSheep: looks like /dev/sda5 [00:44] Thanks. [00:44] okay, let's fix some computers! [00:44] Froad: I think I heard that files even take up more space on Fat32 rather than NTFS [00:44] mysphyt: and the video card is almost certainly unable to detect the TV's parameters through that [00:44] Hello everyone... i upgraded to Ubuntu 9.04 and my wireless card stopped working.... actually it works as in it detects/connects to the network but cant open the page.... i am using Broadcom Corporation BCM4306 802.11b/g Wireless LAN Controller [14e4:4320] (rev 02) [00:45] histo: /dev/sda5 doesn't show on blkid.

What the heck is the default background picture.. My granma thought it was a demon when I installed it on here computer [00:45] histo: just 1 and 2. [00:45] mysphyt: Use DVI or HDMI if possible (you can get a DVI->HDMI adapter if needed) [00:45] sebsebseb: thanks [00:45] Froad: then of course your computer needs to be able to boot from the external [00:45] PlasmaSheep: thats wierd [00:45] UbbyCD: It's an ibex.

[00:45] yes [00:45] ill google it thanks [00:45] Intrepid Ibex [00:45] mysphyt: or VGA (but that's less preferable since it's analog) [00:45] Froad: so similar to when I helped you make that virtual machine [00:45] UbbyCD: intrepid [00:46] TheFunkbomb: update the package repo? [00:46] Froad: or not [00:46] I don't believe it, I just installed 9.04 and my rt2500 wifi card STILL runs at 1mb/s. I have had this trouble sinse 8.04 and everytime it is reported as a bug - does anyone know if it can be fixed? [00:46] Wyzard: Sadly, my TV only has component inputs. I have several other devices using 1080i over component, so that's not a problem. What settings do you think it might be having difficulty detecting? HSync/VSync? [00:46] just sudo apt-get update [00:46] Froad: hummmm your using the alternate not the desktop cd [00:46] Wyzard: Trust me, I wish I could use HDMI. :P [00:46] histo: so what should I do? [00:46] mysphyt: yes, frequency ranges [00:46] Is there any excruciatingly necessary reason to upgrade to Jaunty from a nicely working Intrepid? [00:46] Firefishe: nope.

Guess I'll keep Intrepid for a while, then. [00:47] http://distrowatch.com/weekly.php?issue=20081215#feature sebsebseb [00:47] mysphyt: Take a look in /var/log/Xorg.0.log for messages from the driver that might tell you a bit about the signal it's putting out [00:47] Firefishe, at least until the servers calm down [00:47] mysphyt: you might want to check with the #mythbuntu people they are great at getting tvs working etc... [00:47] TheFunkbomb: I just switched to the Swedish (bork bork) repositories ;) [00:47] okay.. [00:48] hello [00:48] Wyzard: There is, and I have. Newer nVidia drivers have TV specific settings, which I'm using in xorg.conf. Based on what I'm seeing in xorg.0.log, the signal looks right, but on the TV, still borked.

[00:48] Froad: I haven't used the alternate yet myself, but you should be able to figure it out I think. ok you can keep your fat32, or remove it and put a ntfs there instead, or even a Ext3 partition :) and put a driver in Windows so it can read and write to Ext3 [00:48] TheFunkbomb: the listing at the bottom beginning with 'se' is a fast one [00:48] !worksforme | Spendius [00:48] Spendius: Common Sense: Just because you can, does not mean you should (and especially recommend to others).

I really like the minimize and maximize buttons there slick but not overdone and its not gimmicy like a vista or mac clone.. [00:49] histo: what am I to do? [00:49] mysphyt: hrm....

[00:50] rahmat: did you reduce the partition of XP or did you just instal over it? [00:50] rahmat: If you installed over your Windows partition then you can't recover it, short of *maybe* sending the drive to a data-recovery service === guest_007 is now known as guest_008 [00:51] you did look as it was booting up to see if it asked which to boot [00:51] rahmat: but the installer doesn't overwrite existing partitions by default; you would've had to tell it to [00:51] histo: that's the line in menu.lst.

Ubuntu doesn't overwrite other os by default..... [00:53] rahmat: have you considerrt using wine for matlab? [00:53] i'm not sure how to check if I overwrote the partition [00:53] rahmat: how did you install it [00:53] or if your ubuntu installation is not important at the moment you could revert your hard disk back to the old system [00:53] Anyone have problems with Flash Fullscreen after upgrade? [00:53] rahmat: http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=application&iId=49 it should work with wine [00:53] theres an option in one of those recovery programs that saved me [00:53] rahmat: What I'm asking is, what makes you think that you did?

I assume it overwrote XP because when I check the amount of disk space I have left, it doesn't look like I have anything else installed except xubuntu [00:55] Can anyone answer this quick question about Wubi: Is Hibernate not supported because of a limitation in the technology or simply because it hasn't been worked on yet?

If you're lucky, either your computer will boot back to XP, or you'll see an option to boot to XP on the Grub menu. It's very possible that you've overwritten your partition accidentally, but it's also very possible you did not. If it boots straight to Ubuntu without giving you the... [00:55] ...option to go to XP, you're probably out of luck. [00:55] ok [00:55] howdy!

I just fresh installed ubuntu, installed fglr & the control center, and my computer couldn't even boot up. I had to boot into root safe mode, and purge the driver. Any ideas? [00:58] TheFunkbomb: i tried to update the repositories but it didnt show any updates... do you know which package it was supposed to update? [00:58] like getting ripped off to start with [00:58] sebsebseb: well, I don't really think it's worth the trouble [00:58] Hi! I am using the 9.04 Netbook Remix. After doing some changes to services (disabling bluetooth and some other stuff that should not be related to the core functionality of the system) the system froze after entering the password in GDM. I took out the battery and rebootet: The X server couldn't get started anymore (I got this fail-safe dialogue that the X server cannot determine my resolution/graphics card). I tried starting X manually with "sudo [00:58] X". It said it cannot move X.org.log to X.org.log.old. I deleted X.org.log, now the X server starts again, but after entering username/passoword in GDM I get a freeze again. The system worked perfectely before that, any ideas? [00:58] affan001, go into terminal and run sudo apt-get update [00:58] Leemp, i've heard fglrx is disabled in jaunty due to non-functioning or something, google may explain why [00:58] try that first [00:59] rahmat: Open a terminal (should be under Applications->Accessories) and run "sudo fdisk -l" [00:59] phase_shift314: Ripped off? Windows always booted. Right now, ubuntu doesn't/ [00:59] sebsebseb: from what I read the only difference is that r/w is through 2 filesystems [00:59] rahmat: Could you put the output of that command on a pastebin? [00:59] i'll admit xp is a pretty stable system [00:59] can someone help me with open office? [00:59] And no one knows what the hell is wrong with my system. [00:59] sebsebseb: performance is not much of an issue for my computer, so why subject myself to the nightmare of partitioning; my partitions are already so neat [00:59] you probably need an open office channel DaveCo [00:59] phase_shift314: it should be after 7 yrs [00:59] DaveCo: I think #openoffice or #ooo exists [00:59] rahmat: That'll list what partitions you have on your system [00:59] ubuntu requires some reading to find out what to do, it is very very different from windows in the way it operates [00:59] ok thanks [00:59] Leemp: I have no ideas... but you are not the first one.

Really painless... ;) [01:10] PlasmaSheep: what that 7.10 is no longer suppourted? indeed 7.10 was rather nice [01:10] l;/=-NMJ,`3=cvb xzAa21`21zac [01:10] .l/k,i have low screen space, and i want to make the most of it /.,mnb cvxzzxcvgbhnjkl'; [01:10] yea, my laptop upgrade perfectly, and infact, gave me sound AND wifi. But my desktop is all screwed up. [01:10] can anyone help me and explain how i have to install radeonhd driver?? i have to format 3 3 times with fglrx.... [01:10] sebsebseb: I meant that I started using ubuntu with 7.10 and then upgraded asap after that. [01:10] PlasmaSheep: State your problem again the error that you are getting when you boot and perhaps someone will help you. [01:11] dariocaruso: a moment please... [01:11] PlasmaSheep: well you need to clean install for one of the major 9.04 features anyway [01:11] ok thanks [01:11] !worksforme > PlasmaSheep [01:11] PlasmaSheep, please see my private message [01:11] minimec: Well it didnt work in intrepid, i had to use fglrx. So far its not working, but it wants me to restart the desktop, so we'll see once i do [01:11] Wyzard: it gets weirder. When I restart X, my TV screen comes up at 2/3 width. It flashes to full width--like you'd expect--for just a second, and then goes back to 2/3 width. I'm poking through the Xorg log again, b ut it insists it's normal. :/ [01:11] crap, I can't reproduce the printout. [01:11] I have the normal ubuntu 9.04 iso in the root directory of an ext2 filesystem and I have grub installed, how do I install ubuntu from it? [01:11] sebsebseb: You mean ext4? meh. I don't want it. [01:11] anyone? [01:12] intx: burn it to a CD or DVD [01:12] intx: You can't boot from an .iso file [01:12] ..... [01:12] Bo7: The syntax I gave you was right. Is the vnc server running? Is the firewall blocking it? [01:12] brb [01:12] you can't? [01:12] uhh [01:12] no [01:12] is there some way around it? [01:12] Anyone else having a problem with flashplugin-nonfree [01:12] i have a question: how can i move a tool bar so it is inline with the "file, edit.... Help" tool bar? in open office? [01:12] burning to a cd/dvd isn't an option for me [01:12] Ok, restating error message. When booting, I don't totally boot. It hangs on 'waiting for root file system' and then gives me a prompt. [01:13] intx: Burn the ISO to cd. :) [01:13] Question: How do you restart the desktop environment in jaunty..? Ctrl+Alt+Delete isn't working anymore :o [01:13] PlasmaSheep: that was one thing yeah [01:13] Wyzard, simNIX: Well, OK, it kinda works. fsck fixed some errors and I can login again after renaming my home directory and creating a new one. [01:13] Hey, has anyone had issues with Pidgin notifying on new conversations in Jaunty? [01:13] leevi: it's just disabled [01:13] dariocaruso: install the xserver-xorg-video-radeonhd package..., then modify your xorg.conf http://paste.ubuntu.com/157579/ [01:13] intx: If your computer supports booting from USB storage devices, you may be able to create a bootable USB device to install from [01:13] Wyzard, simNIX: Any idea which broken file could prevent my original home directory from making me login? [01:13] Leemp: there's an option in xorg.conf that'll reenable the shortcut. [01:13] cybersplice, Loesh: yeah it should be running, I enabled all options in ubuntus settings from the desktop (vineagre) and the firewall is set [01:13] there has to be a way to install without moving it [01:13] intx: I know that's possible with Debian; I think Ubuntu supports it too, but I've never done it and don't know offhand where to get the necessary files [01:14] minimec: i have to compile somthink? [01:14] mysphyt: How do you do it without? [01:14] dariocaruso: no [01:14] After doing an apt-get upgrade, the system boot hangs on "waiting for root filesystem", and gives me a prompt. Help please. [01:14] dariocaruso: this was a great guide to help me install my radeon drivers, its not exactly the same drivers but it helped to understand the process ---> http://scienceonlooker.blogspot.com/2008/05/newer-ati-driver.html [01:14] do ubuntu developers have a hissy fit over top posting the way so many linux and BSD developers do? [01:14] intx: look for info about doing an "hd-media" install [01:14] Here's a sweet problem - on Parallels - I installed 9.04 - it boots up and logs in... as soon as the desktop appears and is fully loaded Xorg restarts and I'm back at the login... Ideas? [01:14] mysphyt: Im assuming they have a good way to do it, if they make you edit the xorg.conf to do it the ctrl+alt+del way.. [01:15] Bo7: were you using the server ip or hostname? [01:15] hey how do i resize a vdi file? [01:15] intx: It should be possible from a hard drive too, actually, but it involves doing some special setup on whatever drive you're booting the installer from [01:15] i made another disk image [01:15] Hey all. I'm trying to resize my filesystem-drive but it's pretty confusing. I've got my filesystem on my sda1-drive but Gparted only lets me resize sda1, not filesystem itself. [01:15] i have simply to do sudo apt-get install xserver-xorg-video-radeonhd ???? [01:15] but im not sure how to transfer the guest os to the hd [01:15] and change my xorg.conf? [01:15] Leemp: I think restating X is just disabled by default. Either you can add the line Option "DontZap" "False" to the ServerFlags section of xorg.conf, or you can sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart (I think). [01:15] After doing an apt-get upgrade, the system boot hangs on "waiting for root filesystem", and gives me a prompt. Help please. [01:15] cybersplice, Loesh: when connecting the client? the hostname. [01:15] dariocaruso: install the xserver-xorg-video-radeonhd package..., then modify your xorg.conf http://paste.ubuntu.com/157579/ [01:15] Wyzard: yeah.. any idea how I can do that? or find information on installing from a hard drive? [01:15] AntiNeko: boot from a live CD [01:15] dariocaruso: yes [01:16] intx: (hd-media install actually involves making a custom bootable hard drive or flash drive which loads the installer and then loop-mounts the .iso file to get packages out of it... you *cannot* boot the .iso file directly) [01:16] minimec: ok now i try! thanks [01:16] Leemp: Another option is sudo apt-get install dontzap && dontzap -d . Essentially it's just a little utility that does the edit for you. [01:16] AntiNeko: you can't resize the partition when it's in use [01:16] cougarten: Yeah, I was gonna try that. :) Will it pop up in the menu then? Cause I can't see filesystem in Gparted [01:16] mysphyt: Nice [01:16] AntiNeko: sda1 is the first partition on the drive. If it's presently windows, it's likely the only partition. [01:16] cougarten: Yep, but will it show when not in use? [01:16] i have a widgit I leave on the desktop, is it possible to make sure that shortcuts do not appear there? like if I insert a CD, I don't want the cd shortcut appearing under the widgit [01:16] Bo7: try the ip [01:16] cybersplice: I'm dual booting [01:16] intx: I'd recommend using Google to look for info about hd-media installation... but I didn't see it mentioned anywhere on the jaunty download page, so I don't know if it's supported by Ubuntu these days [01:17] AntiNeko: I think gparted is on the liveCD. you can find it under System - 2nd menuething (have another language) - partitioneditor [01:17] when i installed my ati radeon driver when i rebooted i got a black screen [01:18] a screenshot of my jaunty http://img49.imageshack.us/img49/6876/screenshott.jpg .... with the ubuntu studio theme [01:18] : ) [01:18] cybersplice, nope, doesn't work [01:18] no big deal though [01:18] cougarten: Could I get the Gparted LiveCD? [01:18] How can I modify my HAL settings file? [01:18] who needs a monitor anyway [01:18] sh4d3sl4y3r_: how do it get that wigdet bar? [01:18] Wyzard: that's what I'm trying to do, but it coudln't find the iso file [01:18] Bo7: ip:1 ? [01:18] AntiNeko: yes, but the ubuntu CD works too [01:18] avant window navigator [01:18] Oh [01:18] where did you get that theme [01:18] cool [01:19] I just setup ubuntu on a acer aspire laptop and I have no sound? everything installed correctly... any ideas on where I can start? [01:19] cougarten: I actually installed through Wubi - dual booting with Windows (not using Windows at the moment, though) [01:19] i am going to be upgradin i have a turion amd64 x2 i was wondering if i should use the 32 bit or 64 bit version of ubuntu [01:19] how do you save on vim? [01:19] intx: What couldn't find the iso file [01:19] hd-media files booted off grub [01:19] it said it couldnt read the cd rom and to make sure it was inserted [01:19] i had the ubuntu standard iso sitting in / [01:20] After doing an apt-get upgrade, the system boot hangs on "waiting for root filesystem", and gives me a prompt. Help please. [01:20] AntiNeko: I don't know anything about Wubi, but if yu installed it to an own partition any LveCD with gparted should work [01:20] how can i make the volume louder, the volume bars are all the way up 9.04 [01:20] cougarten: Oh my, Gparted Live is only avalibale in i386 [01:20] hey evtybody here [01:20] intx: You had the .iso file on the partition that you passed as the root= option to the hd-media kernel? [01:20] how do I disable IPv6 in 9.04, all the guides I've found online are for 8.10 and below. [01:20] AntiNeko, ask in #wubi [01:21] Hello, i just installed 9.04 and sound isnt working, can anyone help [01:21] what is the difference from ubuntu source of xchat and the official xchat source besides the dcc version change [01:21] Wyzard: no i didn't.. I need to do that? [01:21] i have a widgit I leave on the desktop, is it possible to make sure that shortcuts do not appear there? like if I insert a CD, I don't want the cd shortcut appearing under the widget [01:21] is there a help file on hd-media somewhere? [01:21] and was that all I was missing? [01:21] i am having a hard time getting the network manager to come up. so the machine can connect wirelessly [01:21] Sergeant_Pony_: under System-->Preferences-->Sound, On Device tab, what is selected under sound playback [01:21] hi,i'm having trouble connecting my mp4 player,i plug it with the proper cable,it recharges the battery but i can't see the files on Nautilus,any hint of might be going wrong?it used to work [01:21] FFForever: are you talking about the windows xchat? [01:21] hello. any ideas why rhythmbox won't play mp3 files? [01:21] i need help plz the screen is so dark when i instaled ubuntu 9.04 :S [01:22] genikru123, look in system prefs -> sound and try picking other devices, use test sound [01:22] Crayboff, no the one on ubuntu [01:22] bryan: ifconfig and iwconfig [01:22] how to play fullscreengames only on one monitor of two set up in "twinview" (nvidia) [01:22] System > Administration > Login Window, after putting in the password, the Login Window Preferences seems like it is not using modern widgets, it looks like it is using plain old GTK 1.0 widgets. [01:22] intx: I'm sure there's hd-media documentation somewhere, but I don't know where; wherever you got the hd-media files from would be a good place to look [01:22] guys my Reiserfs system has flaked out... im running reiserfsck --rebuild-tree but it keeps freezing any ideas? [01:22] Saosin, try install ubuntu-restricted-extras, might have to enable other software sources [01:22] just installed ubuntu 9.04 and rhythmbox won't play mp3 files. it says it needs a plugin but can't find it [01:22] was the network tool rmemoved? [01:22] Crayboff, the one on ubuntu reports it with ubuntu at the end of version (Xchat version number Ubuntu) it reported on a ctcp version was wondering if there was a difference [01:22] Saosin : use audacious for mp3 [01:22] Is there any known issues related to Ubuntu 9.04 Jaunty & Intel HDA sound card?:\ [01:23] on notebooks. [01:23] Hello! I'm having a little problem with running multiple websites on one apache2 server. One of my websites I am able to view from another machine, however I am not able to with the other. I can view both websites on the local machine by typing in their domain names. The one that is not working previously used another domain name, and I've changed it over. The only thing I edited in their apache2 sites-available config files was the server na [01:23] Saosin: did you try medibuntu? [01:23] so it won't work with rhythmbox? [01:23] what is medibuntu? [01:23] cougarten: Could I use Knoppix instead? [01:23] i installed ubuntu 9.04 desktop [01:23] !medibuntu|Saosin [01:23] Saosin: medibuntu is a repository of packages that cannot be included into the Ubuntu distribution for legal reasons - See http://www.medibuntu.org [01:23] When i test sound, some devices show an error, others open the test window but i hear no sound [01:23] FFForever: well the ubuntu one and the xchat2 for windows are not officially maintained for what i know, sort of a side project for the xchat creator [01:23] AntiNeko, probably not, because the virtual linux file system exists inside the real windows filesystem [01:23] I installed wubi on a second harddrive and I didnt like it so i just took out the harddrive and gave it back to my friend, well the boot screen still asks me if i want to load windows or ubuntu anyone know what I have to delete to get it to stop asking me if I want to boot ubuntu [01:23] oh. so i'm stuck with the faggy ogg plugin then... [01:23] FFForever: if that answers yoru question [01:23] Crayboff, i never said windows.... [01:23] iwconfig - retru nno wireless extensions [01:24] mikechelen: So I can't resize it? [01:24] ya i know, nvm, then i cant help you, FFForever [01:24] Saosin: the purpose of medibuntu is for you to easily add those other plugins you want [01:24] i was just wondering what changes ubuntu made to the xchat source XD [01:24] my screen is so dark what can i do to adjust darkness i have a dekstop pc not a portable [01:24] AntiNeko, look for wubi-specific instructions [01:24] Saosin: it's not some other distribution, its a package source you add to get those things. [01:24] AntiNeko: if it comes with Gparted yes. but i dont know [01:24] AntiNeko: you can't resize wubi installs [01:24] where can i configure Gnome-volume-manager to auto mount a drive? [01:24] AntiNeko, Crayboff: you can [01:25] mikechelen is right AntiNeko [01:25] ah! I deleted my partition table on a harddrive, is it possible to recover the data it was pointing to? [01:25] why is so complicated these days? i remember installing several linux distros years before and every one of them had libraries for mpeg decoding [01:25] 9.04 BUG: "Error failed to fork pty" from Add/Remove and unable to open any terminal [01:25] After doing an apt-get upgrade, the system boot hangs on "waiting for root filesystem", and gives me a prompt. Help please. [01:25] wha? Flannel how? i looked for this but it told me that it had to be moved to its own partition [01:25] O.O [01:25] mp3 is a proprietary codec [01:25] that's why its not included [01:25] it wasn't before? [01:25] I can't connect to #wubi [01:25] AntiNeko, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WubiGuide#How%20do%20I%20resize%20the%20virtual%20disks? [01:25] it was. but those distros were not FOSS compliant [01:25] AntiNeko, yeah sorry that is the wrong chan [01:25] Saosin: Those distros must have been more willing to skirt the law. But medibuntu is NOT hard to use. [01:26] AntiNeko: you're in there... but no one else is [01:26] medibuntu is just a source, right? [01:26] mikechelen: Thanks alot! Will check out that link [01:26] will wubi work with any linux live cd? [01:26] someone help me with the sound :( [01:26] Wyzard: i got it from here, no documentation: W_McL [01:26] Wyzard: http://no.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/jaunty/main/installer-i386/current/images/hd-media/ [01:26] Saosin: The instructions are pretty easy http://www.kubuntu.org/news/9.04-release [01:26] if you want media get medibuntu repository [01:26] ah! I deleted my partition table on a harddrive, is it possible to recover the data it was pointing to? [01:26] AntiNeko: Crayboff https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WubiGuide#How%20do%20I%20resize%20the%20virtual%20disks? Oh, mikechelen already linked. That use to be in the FAQ on the wubi site [01:26] someone can help me with the darkness :S [01:26] is there a way to disable the monotor from blanking to save power... i dont have X instale [01:26] d [01:26] anyone here uses lives? [01:26] unable to open a pty, help [01:26] Saosin: oops these are the instructions https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Medibuntu [01:26] phase_shift314, 1 sec [01:26] if only everyone could stop typing so i can copy the link... [01:27] AntiNeko, might want to migrate to "real" dual boot in the future, that should work for now though [01:27] mikechelen: when i test sound, some devices give errors, others load the test window but i hear no sound === noodlesgc_ is now known as noodlesgc [01:27] phase_shift314, it's got autodetect selected [01:27] is there any bug about cpu freq on 9.04? because my frequency is 800MHz but there is too much noise from cpu fan ? [01:27] ah! I deleted my partition table on a harddrive, is it possible to recover the data it was pointing to? [01:27] mondo: I have felt similar problems to you... [01:27] genikru123, ok which one shows no error? and what sound card do you have [01:28] mikechelen: Didn't think I'd be this amazingly pleased with Ubuntu! Was just checking it out. Will run Ubuntu solo in future [01:28] mikechelen Flannel cougarten Thanks alot, will check out link [01:28] daedra: The data isn't gone; if you recreate the partition table (just create partitions again with the same starting/ending cylinder numbers) you should be able to access it just fine [01:28] doleyb: no solution yet ? [01:28] so after i add the medibuntu source all i need is to restart the "add/remove applications" window, right? [01:28] mondo, you could check system monitor and see if cpu usage is high [01:28] Saosin: Most likely. [01:28] Wyzard: ah that's what I thought. What is this process called so I can google it [01:28] ok great [01:28] ? [01:28] unable to open a pty, please help [01:28] daedra: fdisk [01:28] it was way easier with slack 7 :D [01:28] Sergeant_Pony_: i don't understand, i want to configure a drive to be mounted when i boot, right now i have to go to the drive before my shortcuts become linked [01:29] intx: Debian's hd-media documentation is here: http://www.debian.org/releases/stable/i386/ch04s03.html.en [01:29] mikechelen: i have the onboard soundcard from nvidia 790i, when i select ALSA it shows no error but no sound either [01:29] Flannel: that's not resizing the wubi install, that's giving wubi it's own actual partition [01:29] can anyone provide me a good guide for sun-java6-jdk installation ? like setting the path and stuff [01:29] would be helpful :) [01:29] mikechelen: interesting thing is mo cpu usage, 800MHz freq. but too much noise, i hadnt such that problem 8.10 [01:29] intx: It may apply to Ubuntu as well, but you're on your own; #debian doesn't appreciate questions about Ubuntu [01:29] phase_shift314: Maybe you want to edit /etc/rc.local and add "mount /media/MYDISK" === Blizzerand is now known as ^Blizzerand^ [01:30] Crayboff: http://lubi.sourceforge.net/lvpm.html and scroll down to "Resizing virtual disks using LVPM" or whatever [01:30] buncha haters [01:30] hehe [01:30] and another question. do i need to edit /etc/fstab to add my other partitions on the drive for auto mounting or is there a graphical app for this? [01:30] anyone knows of any sitemap genetator software for ubuntu? [01:30] mondo: I wish I had too much noise! I think its not putting on the CPU fan enough, and then it decides its overheating and shuts off. [01:30] Hello! I'm having a little problem with running multiple websites on one apache2 server. One of my websites I am able to view from another machine, however I am not able to with the other. I can view both websites on the local machine by typing in their domain names. The one that is not working previously used another domain name, and I've changed it over. The only thing I edited in their apache2 sites-available config files was the server na [01:30] doleyb: thank you, i think that is what i needed, i was trying to find an app that had configurations but that will do [01:30] genikru123, does it have analog and/or digital outputs? do you see that card listed with (ALSA) or (OSS)? [01:31] hi! i've do this: install by apt radeonhd driver and modify my xorg, but after the reboot is the same and my glxinfo not show radeonhd driver === carlos is now known as Guest57321 [01:31] can anyone help me, please? [01:31] Vesayth: You have to change the ServerName directive in the config file's block [01:31] mondo, is that from variable speed cpu fan? maybe search for your mobo model [01:31] Wyzard: I have [01:32] Vesayth: The name of the config file in sites-available doesn't actually mean anything to apache [01:32] any time now. about that mounting issue i have. and don't get it out of context :D [01:32] mikechelen: actually when i test in OSS it plays a noise but i still dont hear sound in web players [01:32] Wyzard: That's not what I changed [01:32] Sergeant_Pony_: under System-->Preferences-->Sound, On Device tab, what is selected under sound playback [01:32] Vesayth: you say your local machine can view the new URL's... do you have the host names defined in your /etc/hosts file? or DNS?

[01:32] Wyzard: The file name is still the same. I went into those files and changed the ServerName from old.domain to new.domain [01:32] where do i set the labels for the partitions mounted ( for the icons on the desktop) [01:32] genikru123, you mean flash? [01:32] yea [01:32] Vesayth: That should be all you need to do (other than restarting apache, of course) [01:33] Vesayth: Are you sure the domain name actually points to your server in DNS? [01:33] the fglrx have a bug with my card, if i install it after reboot i can't log in [01:33] Kr0ntab: Yes. I edited my /etc/hosts file [01:33] i have a widgit I leave on the desktop, is it possible to make sure that shortcuts do not appear there? like if I insert a CD, I don't want the cd shortcut appearing under the widget [01:33] hi ppl [01:33] mikechelen, i havent tried any other method tho, just flash players [01:33] unable to open a pty, please help. I just updated to 9.04. It looks just like https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/update-manager/+bug/338071 but the solutions there don't fix it [01:33] Vesayth: how about on your other machines? Did you change them as well? === osxdude_ is now known as osxdude [01:33] Sergeant_Pony_: oh sorry, try on oss and test [01:33] genikru123, you can check others, most should work, flash needs to be set to use OSS [01:33] Wyzard: I'm not entirely sure. The domain was just transferred today, so it may be an issue with the domain transfer not syncing up yet (even though it appears in my new registrar's list) [01:34] Hey there, got a question: What could cause the issue that my gnome-panel doesn't start automatically when I log in? [01:34] so i had to install radeonhd but i think that are not installed [01:34] how to update distrib 8.10 to 9.04 console ????? [01:34] Anybody having the trash icon bug with Jaunty? I can't seem to get it to look full when stuff is in it. [01:34] Vesayth: DNS changes typically take a little while to propagate through the system; try again tomorrow [01:34] phase_shift314, I did, nothing came out. [01:34] mikechelen, i set it to OSS i still dont hear flash sound [01:34] ProMax, sudo apt-get dist-upgrade [01:34] is there an automated bot here?

I'll see what happens tomorrow and will come back in here if I still have issues. [01:35] mikechelen, what do you mean, what is? [01:35] mikechelen: i type that not work , you know why ? [01:35] Sergeant_Pony_: have you looked at your preferences under the volume control? [01:35] i have a intel graphic controller and the screen is so dark pleeeeeeeeeeeez help me brothers [01:35] unable to open a pty, please help. I just updated to 9.04. It looks just like https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/update-manager/+bug/338071 but the solutions there don't fix it [01:36] cbk486: Hello, I just installed the x64 bit version of ubuntu 9.04 on my pc, but my nvidia gtx260 is not showing up in the driver manager. How can I fix this and install the driver? [01:36] what is the ubuntu 9.04 version called? [01:36] Jadi: what do you mean by screen being dark ? [01:36] genikru123, flash uses ALSA by default and needs to be set to use OSS for your sound card [01:36] Jaunty | Sasosin [01:36] Saosin: jaunty jackalope [01:36] mikechelen, how do it set it to OSS [01:36] ProMax, what is the error? might need to do "apt-get update" first [01:36] thank you [01:36] !jaunty | Saosin [01:36] Saosin: Ubuntu 9.04 (Jaunty Jackalope) is the current release of Ubuntu. Download: http://releases.ubuntu.com/9.04/ - Release Info: http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/releasenotes/810 - Please use !torrents [01:37] genikru123, im looking to see, maybe http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=781205 will help? [01:37] why does the bot have the 810 page for release info for jaunty heh heh [01:37] mikechelen, why cant i just make ALSA work [01:37] unable to open any terminal (pty), please help. I just updated to 9.04. It looks just like https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/update-manager/+bug/338071 but the solutions there don't fix it [01:38] mikechelen: hm.. [01:38] genikru123, do you see your sound card listed with (ALSA) in sound prefs? [01:38] Wyzard: so do I just do fdisk from the beginning of the partition to the end with the same filesystem as before? [01:38] no error [01:39] mikechelen, yes [01:39] daedra: use fdisk to create partitions with the same starting and ending cylinders and the same type codes [01:39] please anyone can tell me if when i install radeonhd driver i have to remove somethink? [01:39] if I just want to do an upgrade, I get the 'alternate' iso, right? [01:39] i just installed jaunty, and while i had sound without issues in intrepid, i have no sound at all here [01:39] i can start music and pulseaudio has a bar thats bouncing left and right (all alsamixer sliders at max too), so apparently the music is playing and something is happening, but i hear nothing [01:39] I'm on 9.04 release candidate. how do I update to 9.04 final? do I just let update manager do its thing and that does it? [01:39] pinion, yeah, ever since recent firefox updates [01:39] i have just installed but nothings is changed [01:39] davygrvy: That line didn't fix it? It di for me devpts /dev/pts devpts (rw,noexec,nosuid,gid=5,mode=620) [01:39] daedra: (actually, the type code is only a hint to the OS, and doesn't actually have anything to do with the contents of the partition) [01:39] mikechelen: thanx [01:39] Wyzard: what are type codes? [01:39] genikru123, what happens with test sound? [01:40] that true =) [01:40] Hello here :) [01:40] daedra: the byte in the partition table that indicates what the partition is for, e.g. 0x83 for Linux [01:40] Wyzard: ah I think I know what you mean. 82 for Linux :D [01:40] How can I access my "Private" folder I had on ubuntu 8.10 ? [01:40] mikechelen: now work =) [01:40] what iso do I need for just an upgrade [01:40] 0x82 is swap [01:40] oops thats swap [01:40] yea [01:40] :P [01:40] mikechelen, i had a USB sound card plugged in, i unplugged it and i think the driver for my onboard card isnt installed, how can i install drivers [01:41] Wyzard: thanks for that I'll play around on a test drive [01:41] daedra: but it has nothing to do with the partition's contents; you could make a partition labeled 0x82 and put NTFS in it [01:41] does anyone know if amarok 2 is capable of burning cds? [01:41] mikechelen, i get this error when i test my onboard soundcard with ASLA or OSS audiotestsrc wave=sine freq=512 ! audioconvert ! audioresample ! gconfaudiosink profile=chat: Could not open audio device for playback. Device is being used by another application. [01:41] ProMax, good to hear, you might want to enable automatic updates too [01:41] daedra: Windows probably wouldn't "notice" it, but you could still mount it with ntfs-3g or whatever [01:41] I just upgraded to 8.04 TLS and then to 8.10. I see Network Connections in Preferences, but I don't understand what I need to do to get the network connection to activate once I set one up. [01:41] Wyzard: oh ok, and would that be able to boot? [01:41] How can I access my "Private" folder I had on ubuntu 8.10 ? [01:41] Wyzard: oh I see... probably lazy windows coding [01:41] anyone know how to go from 9.04rc to 9.04final? is it a reinstall? [01:41] I need to mount the jaunty alternative iso as a cdrom.. anyone know how to do this? [01:41] minimec: I switched to the aux terminals with ctrl+alt+f2 and ran mount and saw that it errors on devpts saying it has bogus options [01:41] genikru123, no driver installation should be required, might have to change some settings though [01:42] genikru123, do you want to use the usb or onboard? [01:42] ? [01:42] greetings, everybody! [01:42] minimec: sudo mount -a [01:42] If I setup a wireless network in Network Connections, how do I tell Ubuntu to actually start using it? [01:42] daedra: I don't know what Windows' policy is on detecting filesystems in partitions... the point is that the type code in the partition table is just a hint to the OS that it *can* use to decide which partitions to look at and which to ignore [01:42] ubuntuser: just update normally nothing more has to be done [01:42] !beta | ubuntuser [01:42] ubuntuser: If you installed a Alpha/Beta/RC version of Ubuntu 9.04 (Jaunty Jackalope) and have been keeping it up to date, then you are already running the latest version of Jaunty. To make sure, type « sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade » in a console. [01:42] hi, Im using ubuntu netbook remix, how can I get rid of the "maximize everything on load" behavior [01:42] ok so i added medibunto, but rhythmbox still can't find the mpeg libraries to play mp3 files. any ideas? [01:43] davygrvy: All I did was to add that at the and of my /etc/fstab fils 'devpts /dev/pts devpts (rw,noexec,nosuid,gid=5,mode=620)' [01:43] mikechelen, i dont mind, but ALSA isnt working with any, and only OSS is working with the usb sound card [01:43] so has any one else been having the time out issues with upgrading? [01:43] minimec: doesn't work for me [01:43] Saosin: you may have added the medibuntu repository but did you actually install anything from it? [01:43] i have a mirror site for hardy and when i use debmirror to try and update keeps giving an error ... [01:43] Paddy_EIRE: all i could find was non-free-codecs. i installed this package but still can't play mp3 [01:43] davygrvy: sorry to hear that. I have no idea what else to do... [01:44] minimec: i'm lost [01:44] Question: How do you move a panel in jaunty? They seem to be locked.. but i dont even see an unlock option [01:44] Saosin: you do not need medibuntu for mp3 [01:44] sanguisdex: That's kinda normal in the days after an Ubuntu release because everyone's downloading upgrades [01:44] Paddy_EIRE: then what do i need? [01:44] i'm having trouble with a shell script. I need to take this string "+XX.0C" (Where , turn it into [01:44] Saosin: you just need to install 'ubuntu-restricted-extras' from add/remove [01:44] oops [01:44] sanguisdex, could try using debtorrent [01:45] Wyzard: its odd it's the forst tiem I have had these issues [01:45] hello, I have two machine with jaunty and in neither works nautiulus's typeahead search. It works on liveCD. it works on any other gnome widget. Anybody an idea? [01:45] i'm having trouble with a shell script. I need to take this string "+XX.0C" (Where X is a number) , turn it into a pure number so i can add it to a sum [01:45] Paddy_EIRE: i can't find that. perhaps you can guide me where to look for it? [01:45] Saosin: warning this will also install several other restricted "proprietary" apps and microsoft fonts [01:45] How can I access my "Private" folder I had on ubuntu 8.10 ? === mondo is now known as CorpusCallosum [01:45] evantandersen: Have you tried sed? [01:45] genikru123, is your onboard sound card listed multiple times in sound prefs? === cybersplice__ is now known as cybersplice [01:45] mysphyt no === erthery is now known as erth [01:45] Ah hah, im guessing you can't move them :o, they just give you an option on where to put it [01:45] mikechelen: I am aboit scared of thined like debtorrent and aptp2p [01:45] evantandersen: Can you pastebin the script? [01:45] genikru123, for using flash with oss, might try flashplugin-nonfree-extrasound [01:46] Saosin: Applications > Add/Remove (then choose show all applications) after that search for restricted [01:46] ok ill try [01:46] sebsebseb: sorry had to go unexpectedly [01:46] is debtorrent better then apt-p2p? [01:46] Froad: ok [01:46] Paddy_EIRE: already did that. nothing found [01:46] blue112, it should work the same as before, mine hasn't changed [01:46] how can I upgrade from the alternate cd? [01:46] Froad: so you missed my messages? [01:46] !more stable [01:46] Sorry, I don't know anything about more stable [01:46] i'm running ubuntu 8.10 and set up a raid 5 with mdadm over three devices. i deliberately left some space on each of the three devices to try to set up a raid 0 with windows xp. well, cardinal question, does anyone know how to do this, without loosing data an still being able to access my raid volume from linux, or even better, can i use one and the same raid array on both systems? Very interested in ideas. [01:46] Saosin: which version of ubuntu are you using? [01:46] ripps: I have changed my hd :/ [01:46] latest. 9.04 desktop [01:46] just installed it [01:46] sanguisdex, only downside is somewhat high (~100mb) mem usage, otherwise debtorrent works fine on home cable [01:47] ripps: When I mount the old one, I can't find my datas [01:47] Saosin: go to 'System > Administration > Software Sources' [01:47] hi guys [01:47] I don't have a sound card configured in my computer [01:47] Saosin: look to make sure that the "restricted" repository is enabled [01:47] blue112: no clue, I suppose it might have been erased [01:47] maddin: I don't think Windows XP supports software RAID, so you'd have to use motherboard fakeraid to combine the drives together at the whole-disk (rather than partition) level [01:47] maddin: which would break your mdadm array [01:47] maddin, idk about reusing the raid config, if there is blank disk space linux does not mind what else uses it === zhanx is now known as Zh[a]nx [01:48] "proprietary drivers for devices (restricted)" is checked [01:48] * Zh[a]nx is away: Gone away for now [01:48] some help here [01:48] Saosin: this is also called the mulitiverse [01:48] Linuz2009: with? [01:48] !ptys missing [01:48] Sorry, I don't know anything about ptys missing [01:48] mikechelen, not woRkin [01:48] Wyzard, it can be done with windows-based applications [01:48] Paddy_EIRE: everything is checked [01:48] mysphyt http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/m5d679817 [01:48] my sound card isn't configured [01:48] !devpts [01:48] Sorry, I don't know anything about devpts [01:48] does anybody know what protocol the loopback interface uses? [01:49] I'm trying to understand my iptables [01:49] ok.. then close and reload the package lists if it asks [01:49] Saosin: ^ [01:49] my volume control is unable to detect any control devices [01:49] !iptables | rroblak [01:49] rroblak: Ubuntu, like any other linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'ufw' command (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Uncomplicated_Firewall_ufw), or 'iptables' (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo). GUI applications such as Firestarter/Gufw (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE) also exist [01:49] rrowell: If it has an IP address then it uses IP [01:49] mikechelen, do you know if i can reset everything to default settings? [01:49] sebsebseb just read em [01:49] Saosin: or you could try via a terminal! If you would like [01:49] @wyzard I will find out if its software or fake raid then first thanks so far [01:49] sebastien, yes I'm reading that right now [01:50] Paddy_EIRE: ok i restarted "add/remove programs" i found "ubuntu restricted extras" and it is checked. so i must have mp3 player. but why rhythmbox can't play mp3 files? [01:50] sebsebseb: still it's like what commands should I use :/ [01:50] Froad: ok what you want to do regarding the data partition? [01:50] hello [01:50] Saosin: it can [01:50] sebsebseb: idk really [01:50] anybody respond to my question [01:50] When the refresh frequencies are not detected for a given LCD monitor, is it the fault of the video driver (kernel module) or the whole of Xorg? [01:50] Paddy_EIRE: ofcourse i can do this in the terminal, but it was long ago when i used apt (on debian) and i forgot most of the arguments [01:50] genikru123, it should be at the default currently [01:50] !patience | Linuz2009 [01:50] Linuz2009: The people here are volunteers, your attitude should reflect that. Answers are not always available. See http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines [01:50] sebsebseb: my mother may need to use it, so maybe using a share partition? [01:50] vocx: driver and/or hardware [01:50] sebsebseb, I'm trying to understand why my loopback is not being blocked since I don't have any rules specfically allowing it [01:51] sorry [01:51] Linuz2009: Patience, there's a lot of us here. Also, give us a bit more information on your problem [01:51] I'll wait [01:51] genikru123, use test sound with autodetect option [01:51] genikru123, which device did you get some audio from, onboard or usb? [01:51] vocx: some (mostly old) monitors just don't provide that information [01:51] Linuz2009: what does your System->Preferences->Sound says [01:51] Saosin: hmm.. perhaps the installation of ubuntu-restricted-extras was messed up... open up synaptic package manager [01:51] Froad: I think do a Ext3 data partition, and put the driver in Windows so Windows can read and write to it. [01:51] Anyone has an idea how to make my gnome panel to start up automatically again (as it should do)? [01:51] Mikechelen, USB [01:51] Hi sebsebseb [01:51] Saosin: You know where that is right? [01:51] Paddy_EIRE: nope. restarted rhythmbox now, and still can't play mp3. but the tags are read. is this progress? [01:51] Wyzard, how old is old? Mmm... 4 years for an LCD? [01:52] there's none default mixer device [01:52] !ext4 [01:52] Sorry, I don't know anything about ext4 [01:52] anyone do anything with mirror either debmirror or apt-mirror [01:52] !ext3 [01:52] ext3 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.org [01:52] @mikechelen what do you mean with reusing the raid config? [01:52] InvisiblePinkUni: who are you? [01:52] hi, does someone know if the install disk will boot an intel iMac? [01:52] Paddy_EIRE: yes i know. done [01:52] vocx: That should be OK, probably [01:52] sebsebseb: I upgraded to 9.04, but am not happy :(. Flash is choppy in full screen. [01:52] Froad: yep ,but your install will be Ext4 :) [01:52] Saosin: ok then search for ubuntu restricted [01:52] Ventero: check System -> Preferences -> Sessions and see if "gnome-panel" is there? [01:52] InvisiblePinkUni: who are you? [01:52] there's only sound events and music and movies and audio conferencing [01:52] evantandersen: I'm installing lm-sensors so I can see what your input's like. :P [01:52] a ghost [01:52] I mean, me [01:52] sebsebseb: I'm planning to do a clean install from scratch. [01:52] InvisiblePinkUni: What is you video card and driver? [01:53] im so going back to 8.10 :D [01:53] Saosin: and then right click it and mark it for reinstall... this may take some time depending on your connection. [01:53] Steffy: Does it have to be there? I thought it should get started as part of the default gnome-session [01:53] Paddy_EIRE: nothing found [01:53] InvisiblePinkUni: yeah, but your using a differnet name, so remind me who you are [01:53] minimec: ok, got it. alt+f2 then ran "gksudo mount -a" rather than the aux terminals [01:53] ripps: I think its Intel X3100 [01:53] Ventero: good point. [01:53] sebsebseb: soooo I'll want two partitions: one ext4, and one ext3 share partition? [01:53] Paddy_EIRE: there were some results but not the one i am looking for [01:53] BePhantom: yeah ? [01:53] sebsebseb, too many bugs in 9.04 [01:53] anyone else unable to change pop notification settings? settings (theme & position) have no effect. [01:53] sebsebseb: We talked briefly on #ubuntu-release-party yesterday. [01:53] yep [01:53] BePhantom: such as? [01:53] InvisiblePinkUni: what was your name there? [01:54] sebsebseb, intel video problem [01:54] InvisiblePinkUni: the intel driver in jaunty is buggy due to dri2/uxa stuff, you need to either upgrade your kernel + driver with unofficial packages or downgrade the driver [01:54] Saosin: then specifically search for ubuntu-restricted [01:54] sebsebseb: InvisiblePinkUnicorn. [01:54] Wyzard, so I should talk to the guys developing the driver? Or how can I tell, or probe my monitor for this info. I know the refresh rates but because they are in a sticker in the back. [01:54] InvisiblePinkUni: http://www.ubuntugeek.com/intel-graphics-performance-guide-for-ubuntu-904-jaunty-users.html [01:54] BePhantom: yeah that [01:54] mysphyt well that grep command gives me +66.0*C +67.0*C (Degrees sign, i can't do it) I have a dual core macbook [01:54] ripps: ok cool thanks. [01:54] mikechelen, i might have messed up some settings, is there a command to reset to default [01:54] InvisiblePinkUni: what did we do? [01:54] ripps: welcome [01:54] BePhantom: intel proccesor good, intel graphics bad [01:54] Paddy_EIRE: nothing [01:55] sebsebseb, i'll stay with 8.10 till 9.04 gets fixed [01:55] genikru123, depends what settings did you change? [01:55] sebsebseb: Nothing. [01:55] Saosin: you tried ubuntu-restricted-extras [01:55] vocx: Check /var/log/Xorg.0.log; the driver may have logged some messages saying whether it succeeded or failed to detect, and what info it got [01:55] I don't have a sound in my computer [01:55] hello all [01:55] BePhantom: it's not 9.04's fault that Intel do bad graphics cards [01:55] ? [01:55] unable to detect any sound modules [01:55] Saosin: in synaptic I mean [01:55] BePhantom: and don't suppourt Linux properly [01:55] i have a ubuntu partition on my hard drive right now but i want to use xbuntu [01:55] vocx: If necessary you can add a Monitor section to your xorg.conf containing HorizSync and VertRefresh lines with the numbers from that sticker on the monitor [01:55] mikechelen, im not sure, i tried a few solutions i found on forums [01:55] why is my /etc/rcS.d/S11mountdevsubfs.sh missing? How do I recreate that link in the appropriate manner? [01:55] Paddy_EIRE: yes. i am in synaptic, searched for restricted, ubuntu restricted, ubuntu-restricted-extras and no results [01:55] when I run the installer will it ask me which partition to install on [01:55] Is there a command to do a "full reinstallation" of a package, that is a package and its dependencies? [01:55] sebsebseb: intel is usually the paragon of stability in linux, but theyre doing bleeding edge stuff with gem and dri2, so their working out the bugs in these new archetechtures [01:56] Anyone here think they are an expert with ubuntu wireless setup? [01:56] and want to help me? [01:56] who can tell me how to use the "make" [01:56] need to get a my sound card configured [01:56] !ask | dexterr [01:56] dexterr: 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. :-) [01:56] sebsebseb, well, 8.10 worked just fine with my video, i dunno what happened in 9.04 nor why was released with such a problem [01:56] Wyzard, I already looked at the logs, that's why I know what to add to xorg.conf, but I'm trying to determine if this is a bug, that is, if the monitor should have been detected by the driver or xorg. [01:56] there's no sound playing in my computer [01:56] lol, ok, thanks [01:56] jh_ubuntu cd into the dir where you unzipped the file, then type "make" [01:56] BePhantom: well use 8.10 if you want, it has another year of suppourt on the desktop [01:56] Saosin: do you have universe and multiverse repos enabled? [01:56] that includes the internet and the computer [01:56] evantandersen: So are you trying to get an integer, or just trying to get rid of the + and the degrees celsius? [01:56] vocx: You could look up the monitor's model number on Google to see if others have had problems with it [01:57] can anybody explain how this iptables list allows the loopback interface to work? http://privatepaste.com/1dexD2tkCI [01:57] BePhantom: newer is not always beter [01:57] only when I boot up can it play a sound [01:57] vocx: or try a newer monitor to see if that's detected [01:57] I am on a bootable Xubuntu right now, on my laptop. I have been thinking of installing. I have never used wireless in linux, and am having problems. Can anyone help me? [01:57] BePhantom: what's your video card [01:57] anyone else unable to sign on here with SSL enabled? [01:57] Kr0ntab: where can i check for these? [01:57] mysphyt yes i want an interger. The number after decimal place is always a 0, so yeah an interger [01:57] sebsebseb, true, i mean it boots slower but everything works fine [01:57] ripps, intel 945 [01:57] it seemed that my sound card isn't supported by Ubuntu [01:57] system... administration... software sources... [01:57] jh_ubuntu: If you're installing something then usually it's type "./configure", then "make", then "make install". There should also be a README.txt. And for more info on make type "man make" in terminal [01:58] Linuz2009: that or linux isn't supported by your sound card [01:58] Is there any way to /update/ my ubuntu to jaunty? [01:58] BePhantom: intel graphics is buggy due to new dri2/uxa, you need unofficial upgrades/downgrades to fix: http://www.ubuntugeek.com/intel-graphics-performance-guide-for-ubuntu-904-jaunty-users.html [01:58] can anyone help me [01:58] Kr0ntab: yes. everything is checked [01:58] Anyone use BusinessMAP 5 from ESRI? [01:58] how can I know if my soundcard isn't supported? [01:58] sebsebseb: any recommendations [01:58] rroblak: looks like the INPUT chain has no DROP rules that apply to lo except the one matching invalid packets, so lo traffic goes through the chain all the way to the end, and the chain's policy is ACCEPT so that's what happens [01:58] Wyzard, this is a pretty generic-brand, cheap LCD, so I doubt a lot of people use it. And I have no other monitors to test. [01:58] hey guys..jaunty adds support for native nvidia drivers correct? [01:58] its a intel 8 0 [01:58] Froad: yeah [01:58] in "add/remove programs" i see ubuntu-restricted-extras installed, but not in synaptic [01:58] Linuz2009: what kind of sound card is it? does it show up in the output of command "lspci"? [01:59] Froad: reply to my pm [01:59] and when i try to uninstall it from "add/remove programs" it says to do it in synaptic because other packages depend on it [01:59] dude..SAOSIN [01:59] back rocks..just saw them last year [01:59] band rather [01:59] lol [01:59] if anyone gets a chance can someone pm me [01:59] Dougshell: :) [01:59] Wyzard, thanks for the wonderful explanation :) [01:59] disismt: Yes, open update manager and there should be a "Upgrade Ubuntu" button in the top right corner. Visit http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/upgrading [02:00] Saosin: open a terminal and type "sudo aptitude reinstall ubuntu-restricted-extras" minus the quotes :) [02:00] I don't see any sound device [02:00] davidfx0: just ask your question ... if someone here knows, they reply [02:00] or audio device [02:00] !ask | davidfx0 [02:00] davidfx0: 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. :-) [02:00] Wyzard, by the way, once I've set the correct frequencies, according to the logs, it fails to detect the "virtual" size. So the login screen appears out of range. Once I log in, everything is fine. Do you know anything about this? [02:00] i have been having a lot of kernel panics lately, could this be jaunty related [02:00] mikechelen, when i do "alsamixer" i see my headphone is at 0, how can i change that [02:00] Paddy_EIRE: ok, reinstalling [02:00] are you on a vaio genikru [02:00] vocx: If it's failing detection then it doesn't get the monitor's preferred resolution either [02:00] Setting up ubuntu-restricted-extras (31) ... [02:00] Dougshell: did it start with jaunty being installed? [02:01] vocx: You can specify that in a Screen section in xorg.conf [02:01] Does anyone know anything about aircrack? [02:01] Wyzard, I actually have to set a Virtual width and height under the Screen Section, and within a Display subsection in xorg.conf [02:01] yes about a day later. [02:01] Steffy, it will just be an upgrade, I wont lose personal data? [02:01] yes what do you want to know shivam pm [02:01] Saosin: this may take some time depending on your connection.. I am thinking its an incomplete installation of some of the packages that pulls down [02:01] vocx: that sounds right [02:01] alright thanks [02:01] is insserv the correct tool to make a link in /etc/rcS.d/ from a script located in /etc/init.d/ ? [02:01] no audio device detected [02:01] Dougshell: any hardware changes, like memory? [02:01] strange [02:01] Paddy_EIRE: it was pretty fast actually [02:01] j'ai du arrêter la maj vers jaunty pendant le téléchargement des paquets, maintenant je n'arrive plus à la reprendre, ça freeze quand je clique sur le bouton pour lancer la mise à jour, comment faire ? y'a-t-il une ligne de commande pour lancer cette mise à jour ? [02:02] :) [02:02] none [02:02] disismt you could screw up the comp, backing up is recommended. Like if the upgrade goes wrong, you could make the comp unbootable. In which case you have to something fancy [02:02] vocx: actually you probably don't need to specify the virtual size; it defaults to the largest size of the modes listed for the color depth you're using [02:02] Saosin: great then you should try playing those audio files if its done [02:02] Dougshell: then I guess it could be ... the version of kernel in jaunty, more likely some driver in it [02:02] !french | maxagaz [02:02] maxagaz: Ce canal est en anglais uniquement. Si vous avez besoin d'aide ou voulez discuter en francais, merci de rejoindre #ubuntu-fr [02:02] does network manager work for anyone? has never worked for me... [02:02] evantandersen, ok thanks [02:02] oops sorry... [02:02] evantandersen: Try the updated version here: http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/m1478d00d [02:02] Wyzard, it's weird though, why would the login section use the virtual size? If I use an extremely large virtual size I cannot longer see the textbox to enter the username and password, but once I log in, it's fine. [02:02] disismt prolly won't, but if you have an external drive, i recommend copying your home folder over [02:02] vocx: no need to specify it manually unless you want it to be bigger than that, which you probably don't [02:02] Paddy_EIRE: still nothing :) [02:03] hmm [02:03] disismt: It'll just upgrade. You won't loose any data however you should ALWAYS back up critical data before attempting any form of major change to the operating system. I recomend backing your data up to a CD/DVD/USB device before upgrading or installing a newer version of Ubuntu [02:03] vocx: everything uses the virtual size [02:03] says i have no valid connections, and won't let me create one. fortunately my connection still works :P [02:03] Saosin: ok.. gimmie a sce [02:03] *sec [02:03] !insserv [02:03] Sorry, I don't know anything about insserv [02:03] vocx: If you're thinking of virtual desktops in gnome/kde/whatever, those have nothing to do with the virtual size in xorg.conf [02:03] !backup [02:03] There are many ways to back your system up. Here's a few: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BackupYourSystem , https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DuplicityBackupHowto , https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HomeUserBackup , https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MondoMindi - See also !sbackup and !cloning [02:03] when I enter aplay -1 no soundcard detected [02:03] vocx: those work by just hiding and showing groups of windows [02:03] aplay -1 [02:03] no detection [02:03] said invalid option [02:03] what was the argument for purging after removing app? so it can delete the source [02:04] Saosin: sorry i was getting pizza [02:04] or something... [02:04] evantandersen: All I've futzed with is the loop itself; the sed command strips it down to just the integer. There are more elegant ways to do it, but that regexp should work as long as the input doesn't change. [02:04] Steffy: You are wise. [02:04] Kr0ntab: no [02:04] Hi guys, can someone please paste me the default kernel boot line of Jaunty (I installed using debootstrap, and dont have it ) ? [02:04] few days ago it shown something [02:04] vigo: Thank you :) [02:04] *np ^ === Zh[a]nx is now known as zhanx [02:04] * zhanx is back. [02:04] respond ASAP [02:04] vigo: I've lost enough data to HDD corruptions and OS installs going wrong to have learned that lesson enough [02:04] Saosin: did you reload / update the repo? if so... are you then searching for the package in Synaptic? [02:04] Wyzard, it's hard to explain the thing with the virtual size... My monitor doesn't support bigger than 1280x1024, that is the preferred resolution. Everything else looks crappy. [02:05] Kr0ntab: i'm reinstalling it right now [02:05] Jaunty kernel boot line pleassse ? [02:05] reinstalling the package? or reloading? [02:05] mysphyt it says /usr/bin/temp: line 17: syntax error near unexpected token `done' [02:05] Sreffy: I have three tapes and about 100CD/DVDs of backups , 20+ years of learning. [02:05] Kr0ntab: reinstalling [02:05] cool so you found it [02:05] vocx: virtual size in xorg.conf is for making the framebuffer larger than the monitor's resolution, so you can't see everything at once but you can pan around by moving the mouse to the edges [02:05] ok [02:06] Wyzard, according to the logs, if I don't specify the Virtual size in xorg.conf, it defaults to some virtual size like 1600x1400, which I assume is causing the out of range ONLY in the login screen. === Torhal|Away is now known as Torhal [02:06] sound driver is installed [02:06] but not configured [02:06] Steffy: One thing that I learned, is that data CAN be replaced, if incremental backups are done. [02:06] need to configured it at boot screen [02:06] but don't know how [02:06] vigo: Wow, that's very impressive [02:06] Paddy_EIRE: i did apt-get remove ubuntu-restricted-extras, then installed it with "add/remove programs" and now i can see it in synaptic, but still can't play mp3 files with rhythmbox. any ideas? [02:06] vocx: The default virtual size is the dimesions of the largest mode on the Modes line [02:06] Saosin: yeah [02:06] evantandersen: Ah. Get rid of the " ; done" at the end of the line I edited; it's redundant in the script. In any case, the sed command should do what youw ant. [02:07] Saosin: ok so open add/remove again and search for "gstreamer" [02:07] unknown if my sound card is built in [02:07] How do I search for multiple words with apt-cache search foo bar? [02:07] or not built in [02:07] vocx: If you have any modes listed other than 1280x1024, you probably want to remove them [02:07] hello guys, I have two machine with jaunty and in neither works nautilus's typeahead search. It works on liveCD. it works on any other gnome widget. Anybody an idea? [02:07] some please send me Jaunty kernel boot line ? [02:07] ok. just a sec. i did a reinstallation again from synaptic :) [02:07] Wyzard, but I can't use those bigger modelines, they are all ruled out by the driver. [02:07] vigo: I back up my data to a 1TB WD NAS device [02:07] Paddy_EIRE: ^ [02:07] Saosin: Gstreamer Extra Plugins is what you want [02:07] is there a way to turn the backight even lower [02:08] Wyzard, I don't have any modelines listed in xorg.conf, they are auto detected. [02:08] >.< well that's a helpful alert. i started rhythmbox & got: "Error while saving song information. Internal GStreamer problem; file a bug" [02:08] its still kinna bright [02:08] Anyone use ESRI BusinessMAP 5? [02:08] and i have it on minimum [02:08] mysphyt now it says Unexpected end of file [02:08] file a bug about what? [02:08] Paddy_EIRE: great. i have it installed. still can't play mp3. :( [02:08] vocx: pastebin your xorg.conf? [02:08] reinstall it perhaps? [02:08] Saosin: will be right with you.. helping my niece too :P [02:08] UbbyCD: please post your problem on 1 line. It makes it a lot easier to read with so many of us here. [02:08] Saosin: are you restarting rhythmbox? [02:08] vader, try a 'apt-cache search word1 | grep word2' [02:09] finn: Thanks, I'll give that a go. [02:09] piping through grep culls the list to only those items with word2, you can chain as many grep as you want [02:09] evantandersen: Again, I was working on the line by itself, rather than the whole script. The thing to pay attention to is the sed command I added--it'll do the processing you want. [02:09] Wyzard, really simple actually, wait a sec. Mmmm... to be honest you seem to know quite a bit, I didn't expect that. I should have saved some more logs, from a few moments ago that I was testing this stuff, so I don't have to log out. [02:09] Kr0ntab: for thousand time now :) [02:09] are there installation instructions online somewhere that guides me thru installing after creating a software raid on my machine ? [02:09] mysphyt yeah thanks [02:09] hehe had to ask [02:09] ie apt-cache search word1 | grep word2 | grep word3 [02:09] Saosin: just to be sure.. can you play mp3's through totem? [02:09] the page title at: http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/upgrading is wrong [02:09] UbbyCD: you might like the Negative plugin in Compiz. lets you invert colours. i find it easier to right light on dark, than vice versa [02:10] vocx: I've been using xorg since back when there was no autodetection and all this stuff *had* to be specified in xorg.conf :-) [02:10] UbbyCD: *read [02:10] finn: I installed Jaunty using a non standard way, could you please send me the default ubuntu kernel boot line ? [02:10] vocx: (well, it was xfree86 back then, not xorg) [02:10] !raid | TheRAt [02:10] TheRAt: raid is Tips and tricks for RAID and LVM can be found on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/SoftwareRAID wto and http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/LVM-HOWTO - For software RAID, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FakeRaidHowto [02:10] finn: Yep, good ol' grep. Dunno why i din't see that, I use grep hourly. [02:10] thanks ripps [02:10] Wyzard: ive been using it since before there was xorg.conf [02:10] TheRAt: your welcome [02:10] Kr0ntab: yes. i can play mp3 files with totem. so the problem is with rhythmbox then? [02:11] doleyb: yes, it used to be XF86Config, and later XF86Config-4 [02:11] is xmms still supported? [02:11] Saosin: don't think so [02:11] !info xmms | Saosin [02:11] Saosin: Package xmms does not exist in jaunty [02:11] yeah... something. perhaps it's trying to use an audio device that's locked or insufficient. [02:11] !info xmms2 | Saosin [02:11] Saosin: xmms2 (source: xmms2): Client/server based media player system. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.5DrLecter-2ubuntu3 (jaunty), package size 14 kB, installed size 56 kB [02:11] !grub [02:11] kim0, here is mine, but it's from UNR kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.28-11-generic root=UUID=blahblah ro quiet splash [02:11] 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/GrubHowto [02:12] Wyzard, back in Ubuntu 6.06 there was no autodetection, so I actually learned quite a bit too, but I have a fairly simple setup, so I've never have major problems. However for me the important transition has been the change from the "via" driver to "openchrome" [02:12] or something similar to xmms? [02:12] finn: Thanks .. what's UNR :D [02:12] netbook remix [02:12] replace blahblah with the uuid of your drive [02:12] vocx: hmm, I have a machine with one of those, but it's a headless router so I've never used xorg on it :-) [02:12] i am running into a bit of an odd problem. If i plug my cable connection into my ubuntu gateway i only get 2-3Mbit but if i go directly into my laptop i get the 7-8Mbit i should be gettting [02:12] Saosin: no... xxms is not. you can also try Banshee... my personal fav. but rhythmbox should work. [02:13] !info audacious | Saosin [02:13] Saosin: audacious (source: audacious): small and fast audio player which supports lots of formats. In component universe, is optional. Version 1.5.1-4ubuntu3 (jaunty), package size 1139 kB, installed size 3868 kB [02:13] you can reboot (gasp)... and of course you could close out RB.. delete its configuration files.. and relaunch as if for the first time. [02:13] mysphyt no matter where i place the "done"(s) i can't get it to work [02:13] Kr0ntab: just searching for files. it's not in ~/.rhythmbox. where can they be? [02:13] anybody seemed to answer my question? [02:13] Wyzard, http://paste.ubuntu.com/157606/ The identifiers are optional of course. If I omit the Virtual option, only the Login screen is borked, but once I log in everything is fine. [02:14] Saosin: ~/.gnome2/rhythmbox ~/.cache/rhythmbox and ~/.gconf/apps/rhythmbox [02:15] Kr0ntab: and .local/share/rhythmbox :) [02:15] ah yes [02:16] hi all togther [02:16] anyone else having trouble with emerald? i cant get the installed themes to activate [02:16] hey is it true that there is an bittorrent'd apt-get? [02:16] sebsebseb: pm me again [02:16] vocx: GNOME has its own screen-resolution preferences, changing resolutions with xrandr, so that's probably why the problem goes away when you log in [02:16] evantandersen: I'm sorry to say that's a logic problem. I wish I had time to debug the whole script for you, but unfortunately I have to leave--just make sure you've got all your loops correctly matched (that is, a "do" for each "done" and likewise). [02:16] (for the dist-upgrade to jaunty) [02:16] !apt-p2p | recauchutexas [02:16] Sorry, I don't know anything about apt-p2p [02:16] recauchutexas: apt-p2p [02:16] Kr0ntab: still nothing. i'm reinstalling it [02:16] hehe [02:16] Daiseuke: that's the name? [02:16] vocx: Try adding a Depth 24 entry with Modes "1280x1024" instead of that Virtual line [02:16] mysphyt thanks alot [02:16] you da man [02:16] hehe [02:17] recauchutexas: yeah, but apparently there's still no factoid for it [02:17] damn you rhythmbox [02:17] Saosin: sounds like me every day. [02:17] thankyou kim0 Daisuke_Ido [02:18] anybody assist me? [02:18] Wyzard, I actually had a line like that, in the previous version http://paste.ubuntu.com/157610/ But don't remember what it did. [02:18] vocx: Also, "man openchrome" shows that there's a PanelSize option you can provide to the driver... dunno whether that's relevant [02:18] Is there a program to break up a large file into many smaller files so that they can be emailed and reassembled on receipients computer? [02:19] charlesatlas: man split [02:19] Wyzard: thanks [02:19] Anybody here used Ubuntu Netbook on a eee 1000 yet? [02:19] every time I turn on my computer I have to put a password to enable wireless.. how can I save this password? [02:19] Wyzard, it would be cool to use the Virtual option, but I just don't want it to apply to the login screen. [02:20] lol [02:20] I installed Jaunty when it was the RC, I don't have to do anything to be caught up to Jaunty actual, right? Everything that changed should have come in via the updates, yes? [02:20] Saosin: sup? [02:20] RxDx, probably using gnome-keyring [02:20] mdl-unit, correct [02:20] this can't be true [02:20] works? [02:20] Kr0ntab: i created another user, switched to it and played mp3 with rhythmbox! [02:20] Huufarted, i'm using it on a toshiba nb100 [02:20] this was an upgrade right? [02:20] In the Update Manager I got a message saying a new upgrade is available for Ubuntu 9.04. I clicked "upgrade", went through the process, and everything seemed OK. Now today update manager tells me again that the 9.04 upgrade is available *and* it also shows me 884 updates for my current configuration. I'm confused. [02:20] i remember trying out an nb100 [02:20] finn, what wifi chipset does that use? [02:20] Kr0ntab: an upgrade? [02:21] the keyboard is horrible on that thing [02:21] from 8.10 to 9.04? [02:21] yes [02:21] Huufarted, ath5k_pci [02:21] Anybody have any ideas as to how one would disable the BIOS-based volume & brightness display? [02:21] i have about 2xx upgrades [02:21] hi i am about to upgrade ubuntu 8.04 to 9.04 and i was wondering if i should use the 32 bit or 64 bit i have an amd turion 64 x2 is there much of a performance difference? [02:21] can someone pastebin me the default /usr/share/hal/fdi/policy/20thirdparty/11-x11-synaptics.fdi? I adjusted mine. Now, my touch pad doesnt work at all. hehe [02:21] in my current config [02:21] finn, I mean what chipset in the wifi itself? Atheros? 5007? 5008? [02:21] Counterspell: You might have gotten that if the installation was insterrupted, try the upgrade again [02:21] Kr0ntab: no. i was browsing the net with my win and saw news article about the new ubuntu distro. so i decided to download it, burn it and try it. haven't tried the new distros :) [02:21] this is from a CD install [02:21] worked straight away with no configuration, but there is an option for a closed driver as well. hang on let me find out [02:22] ah okay... [02:22] tgr: The main performance benefit is if you have over 4 gig ram. [02:22] the closed driver kinda lost its purpose after ath5k was released and atheros released ath9k [02:22] Question: I need to check if a patch has been applied to one of the drivers in the kernel of Jaunty. Is there anywhere I can browse the source online? [02:22] Wyzard, if I understand correctly, the Virtual option applies globally, that is, it will affect the Login screen. However the window manager will do magic with that option once we are logged in, to create the panning effect. [02:22] Huufarted, AR242x 802.11abg Wireless PCI Express Adapter (rev 01) that's what lspci says, not sure which particular chipset [02:22] finn, thanks. :) [02:23] finn: did the wifi work immediately after install of UNR? [02:23] yep [02:23] doleyb: how much benefit is it [02:23] tgr: linux hasn't been highly optimized, you can see a great deal of performance using a 64bit OS with a 64bit cpu [02:23] it even worked in the live session [02:23] Saosin: I badly need my nicotine fix right now.. :P I will be straight back to you [02:23] Kr0ntab: lol i can't believe it. i actually never restarted rhythmbox! it always went to tray! [02:23] Paddy_EIRE: great idea! [02:23] tgr: ^I mean HAS been optimized [02:23] tgr: Well it's important if you want more than 4 gig ram, that's the big reaason. [02:23] :D [02:23] finn: I looked up the AR242x. That uses the AR5007EG chipset, identical to mine. :) [02:23] I was gonna ask you that... but man I just figured you did... [02:23] tgr: If you're upgrading though, probbably should stay with what you have. [02:23] vocx: no, the Virtual option affects how big applications think the monitor is, which affects everything (not just the login screen), and the window manager's virtual desktops are completely unrelated [02:24] Saosin: good job mate [02:24] according to a quick google the nb100 has the Atheros AR5007EG, same as you [02:24] http://pastebin.ca/1402451 anyone any idea how to debug this? [02:24] some packages in 8.04 were not running well for me when i tested 64 bit [02:24] vocx: the "panning effect" is done by xorg itself and the window manager can't even tell you're doing it [02:24] Kr0ntab: i went suspicious when saw the rhythmbox process after i closed the app :D [02:24] doleyb: i am doing a new install [02:24] can anyone here help me get DVD writing to work with KDenLive? [02:24] hehehe [02:24] so i killed it (with -9 ofcourse) [02:24] can any one suggest a version of Ubuntu that an older i386 400 mhz would run with [02:24] anyone else having trouble with emerald? i cant get the installed themes to activate [02:24] finn, aye. :) Just found that out. Did it work immediately after you installed UNR or did you have to get the ath5k from the web first? [02:24] Saosin: well I like it when problems make sense. [02:24] how do i find out how much ram i have i don't remember [02:24] rat [02:24] Saosin: I can sleep better that way. [02:24] Kr0ntab, Paddy_EIRE sorry to loose your time. it was really my mistake. thank you guys for the help [02:25] tgr: there will always be some packages that don't work right, so you make the choice whether a few apps are worth overall gains in performance [02:25] Saosin: no sweat. happens to the best of us. [02:25] maybe i need some sleep :) it's 4:30am here [02:25] Huufarted, it worked even in the live session before installing to hdd. After installation no action required, it just worked. The only bit of the NB100 that required some manual config was the microphone, but that [02:25] MrVampy: mother-in-law ran plain-jane gnome ubuntu 8.04 on a pentium II 350 until recently [02:25] is toshiba for you [02:25] Can one browse the source for packages online? [02:25] Saosin: hehe probably [02:25] :-) [02:26] but first that nicotine fix... }:) [02:26] i deserve it [02:26] kk.. i'll have to prolly reburn the iso for 8.04.. would 8.10 run as well? [02:26] finn, that rocks. Does UNR come installed with netbook-launcher and Maxium already installed and running? [02:26] MrVampy: I assume so - its not so much the distro as the window manger [02:26] Wyzard, by using the Modes options we absolutely restrict the possible size of the screen then? But then, how do we create an additional panning, which is cool? [02:26] my touchpad stopped working. i already dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg but it still isn't working. the last thing I did that could have caused it is adjust /usr/share/hal/fdi/policy/20thirdparty/11-x11-synaptics.fdi. I think, i already reverted the changes, though. any idea what could stop the touch pad from working? [02:26] can anyone here help me get DVD writing to work with KDenLive? i have grey X's next to all DVD export formats [02:27] MrVampy: btw, Hardy was chosen b/c it was LTS [02:27] the pc actually as more RAM then proc.. but seems to stale after the ubuntu loader with progression bar leavees [02:27] !Twitter [02:27] Sorry, I don't know anything about Twitter [02:27] vocx: The Modes line specifies what video modes may be used to drive the monitor, which is independent of the size of the framebuffer (the virtual size) [02:28] good ubottu, stay that way :-P [02:28] MrVampy: same here, is (was) a 305MHz with 512 RAM [02:28] !gwibber [02:28] Sorry, I don't know anything about gwibber [02:28] vocx: Initially the monitor uses the first mode listed; you can use ctrl-alt-KP+ and ctrl-alt-KP- to cycle through the other modes in the list [02:28] !info gwibber | FiremanEd [02:28] FiremanEd: gwibber (source: gwibber): Open source microblogging client for GNOME.

It sounds like you need specialist help... [02:29] vocx: This was useful back when everyone used CRTs; on an LCD, you probably don't want to change resolutions anyway [02:29] MrVampy: maybe ACPI? [02:29] losher, i'm on their IRC channel... no one is responding [02:29] thru the bios? [02:29] losher, i need to ahve this working by Sunday [02:29] Wyzard, I think I get it, but damn, I need to try this stuff... okay thanks, need to do a series of logouts to try this... yeah, there are a bunch of X commands that are actually disabled. [02:29] !patience | meoblast001 [02:29] losher, and i won't be here tomorrow [02:29] finn, every time you opened a window, did it max out the screen or did it have the standard title bar with the Maximize, Minimize, and Close buttons? [02:29] meoblast001: The people here are volunteers, your attitude should reflect that. Answers are not always available. See http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines [02:29] vocx: and panning becomes much less fun when you try to something like watch a full-screen video ("full screen" means the virtual size, so you'll be panning around on that too) [02:29] Wyzard, have you noticed that in 9.04 they have dissabled Ctrl+Alt+Backspace? [02:30] Saosin: so where did we leave of? [02:30] meoblast001: it seems you like a challenge... [02:30] MrVampy: kernel argument in /boot/grub/menu.lst [02:30] finn, I'm wasting your time lol... I can just as easily boot the .img and find out myself off of the live image. [02:30] Huufarted, no problem, yeah, it has maxium [02:30] vocx: yes, the xorg developers disabled it by default because apparently it was unpopular -- people must've done it by accident or something [02:30] losher, it seems that i either do this or get my team a 0/60 on a project we have to do in school [02:30] MrVampy: check self - is it menu.lst? [02:30] wait.. [02:30] losher, we have to make a video, then edit it and have it on DVD [02:30] there's a new version? [02:31] guys, ext3 or ext4 when installing 9.04 x64? [02:31] all the windows pop up full size. All i really needed to do was much about with firefox to add pesonal toolbar to make it take up less real estate [02:31] !donotzap [02:31] Sorry, I don't know anything about donotzap [02:31] !dontzap [02:31] To re-enable the Ctrl+Alt+Backspace combination that restarts your X server, you can install the "dontzap" package and use the command « sudo dontzap --disable » [02:31] Paddy_EIRE: fixed it. thanks [02:31] phiqtion: there is no reason not to use ext4 anymore [02:31] musikgoat|main: It's DontZap, IIRC [02:31] Wyzard, "hey I have a problem" .... "dude use Ctrl+Alt+Backspace" .... (minutes later) "dude, that rebooted my PC, I was downloading gazillion stuff"... [02:31] riski_biak [02:31] i'm like super noob when it comes to ubuntu and linux.. so i'm not sure [02:31] Saosin: ah cool [02:31] :) [02:31] phiqtion: depends how much u value the data [02:31] thanks Daisuke_Ido [02:31] Saosin: anything obvious? [02:31] musikgoat|main: np [02:31] meoblast001: well it's not like people are deliberately withholding support. Maybe you should explore other options? [02:31] super noob! sounds like a hero. [02:31] i value it alot [02:31] hello all [02:31] hi [02:31] riski [02:32] losher, i threw away my windows CD [02:32] lol kron [02:32] does jaunty have the lastest v4l-dvb s2api ? [02:32] vocx: not much different from the people who posted "ctrl-alt-delete is a cheat code for (some game)" on BBSes in the DOS days [02:32] Wyzard, That actually happened to some guy I was giving advice to. But hey, every X problem is solved by killing X and restarting it, right? [02:32] :-P [02:32] how much swap is it recommended for 2gb x64 machine? [02:32] can someone help me recover a file? [02:32] MrVampy: so much stuff here, hard to scroll up to where you said your issue, what is your issue? something to do with Grub? [02:33] hey is ubuntu as good as windows ME yet? [02:33] Paddy_EIRE: guess it was rhythmbox problem. i restarted it several times but i found it's process and killed it. after that it played mp3. thought i restarted it last time but i guess it wen't to tray or something. which is strage because when i close it now it doesn't go there. [02:33] hmm while trying to use the ubuntu usb start up disk creator i got an installation fail... [02:33] MrVampy: i was suggesting to look at sending power configuration parms to the kernel at boot - i.e. shut the advanced ones off [02:33] phiqtion, if you want it to suspend you need at least 2gb [02:33] I have a broken repositorie or file or broken file name "splashy" I tried at the command prompt " sudo apt-get -f install" it doesn work. how can I remove that broken file? please someone help me [02:33] *went ^ [02:33] Saosin: I was going to suggest you logout and back in to :P [02:33] well SZF.. not sure if it's grub or soem loader.. [02:33] phiqtion: 1G should do nicely... :-) [02:33] thx ppl [02:33] delson_krey [02:33] phiqtion: i just went thru these Q myself - use a swap file and dont worry about it === caplink811-log is now known as caplink811_log [02:33] Paddy_EIRE: i did something similar :) logged it with another user and when i played mp3 i got suspicious :) [02:33] Saosin: I used to use Rythombox, when Ubuntu 8.04 had a rubbish version of Banshee, but 8.10 and 9.04 have a great version :) also Banshee does video as well as music [02:33] ko anjing === doglinox is now known as doglino_ [02:34] Saosin: hehe [02:34] anyone know if there is a fix out for pidgin crashing with gtalk? === zachtib_ is now known as zachtib [02:34] Saosin: I love me some banshee... [02:34] :-) [02:34] SZF should i restate my questions and issue? [02:34] sebsebseb: i'm with 9.04. looks like a fine distro, but it's really annoying this legal shit. you have to install everything manually [02:34] wow jaunty is nice. can someone tell me how to get the cube in it? i can't find compiz in the applications > add/remove [02:34] MrVampy: sure. the orc is flying [02:35] Saosin: not manually, its like 2 lines. [02:35] guess things changed in the last few years [02:35] Saosin: sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras there you go, that takes care of most of the propritary stuff [02:35] MrVampy: s/orc/irc/ [02:35] Saosin: apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras and quit complaining [02:35] Saosin: eh... you have to do that with Windows too though. [02:35] Saosin: use rhythmbox if it fits your needs.. for something a little different you could try banshee or quod-libet (with all the plugins/extensions ofcourse) [02:35] did that already :) [02:35] quodlibet is nice [02:35] phiqtion: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SwapFaq [02:35] what's new in 9.04/ [02:35] ? [02:35] Saosin: so why are you whining? [02:35] Same question as before (still unresolved ;X): How do I get gnome-panel back to the gnome default-session? (As far as I can see all the configs in gconf-editor are set to the right value) [02:35] My favorite way is to use mpd+gmpc [02:35] Paddy_EIRE: what's quod-libet? [02:35] Saosin: I would go on record that more stuff works right out of the box than any other platform. [02:35] alienX_ because i can? [02:36] !info quod-libet | sebsebseb [02:36] Kr0ntab: same here :) since the amount of drivers and so on done in the Linux kernel [02:36] sebsebseb: Package quod-libet does not exist in jaunty [02:36] Hi all [02:36] hmm [02:36] name change [02:36] ok.. running a 400 mhz 485ish ram pc and tryin to get ubuntu to install.. after the ubuntu progression screen leaves, i get staled at a blank blinking cursor screen, any thoughts why??

[02:36] The google plugin for evolution doesnt work [02:36] what gives [02:36] sebsebseb: above your message [02:36] yes- Vista unfortunately - I"m testing an upgrade in virtual for our automation platform [02:36] MrVampy: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootOptions [02:36] StevenC68: trying Ubuntu in virtualbox is a nice idea, but you should partition your hard disk for it later on :) and yeah that kind of issue is common ask in #vbox [02:37] any one know an easy way to create a background when using an laptop screen and a external monitor so it doesnt look ugly and cut??? [02:37] sebsebseb: it takes some getting used to but I love the approach they have [02:37] having sound problems, how do i set the env var sdl_audiodriver permanently? [02:37] Paddy_EIRE: ok i'll try it [02:37] Paddy_EIRE: not now though [02:37] question, will upgrading to 9.04 from 8.10 make me loose any settings, ie; gnome desktop, conky etc...? [02:37] Agreed Sebsebseb. I have attempted to shrink my partition - but - Vista's "unmovable" files ahve been giving me an issue - [02:37] does compiz come built into jaunty or something? [02:38] sebsebseb: yeah sure of course :) [02:38] Can anyone here tell me about there experiences using an Ubuntu netbook intandum with a home winds xp desktop and office windows xp desktop. by that I mean are there any particular difficulties transferring files or having a portable hard drive recignised? [02:38] Also does ubuntu have ntfs support yet? [02:38] StevenC68: yeah and really your meant to use VIsta's tools to resize Vista, but Vista's tools also suck really [02:38] ahh ok.. change the bootoptions.. dont ask why i didnt think of that [02:38] Horusofoz1: yes goo read and write suppourt since Ubuntu 7.10 (October 2007) [02:38] good above [02:39] hmm, reading and writing goo, sounds interesting [02:39] You're so right Sebsebseb! :) - tell ya what though, I'll give another shot... I might try an external drive and just boot to it..... === ^Blizzerand^ is now known as Blizzerand [02:39] yo [02:39] yo [02:39] StevenC68: you could try Gparted, but that might cause dataloss since it's a Vista partition [02:40] test [02:40] StevenC68: and maybe even currupt Vista :d since it's Vista [02:40] Ya - Hmm - it's worth a try - maybe I should install 9.04 first - wipe out vista - and put vista in the virtual box? [02:40] StevenC68: can't you just virtual machine a few Windows apps? or you need a psyical Windows install for 3D gaming or something? [02:40] is it reliable? [02:40] StevenC68, standard dual-boot works pretty well too [02:40] how does one unpack (not install) a .deb package? [02:41] hello im trying to install a program but i need a librarie. i dont remember how to search and install it. can you help me please? [02:41] I'm considering buying a ubuntu netbook at the end of the year when the updated hardware comes out. I'll be using it full time for the first time (Experimented with wirtualboxes) so are there any resources you could direct me to for the change over? [02:41] I deleted my Desktop folder (well, renamed it because it was in a language I didn't want) and now the files in home directory are being displayed as my desktop (including a 'Desktop' folder I've created). Any ideas? [02:41] Horusofoz1: our virtual machines reliable? yes very much so, for a few Windows apps, that won't work in Wine, and that aren't say 3D games. [02:41] Douglask: I believe that .debs are actually .tar.gz [02:41] carlomagno, what program? [02:41] hi . how i can uninstall netbeans from ubuntu 9.04? [02:41] ripps: thanks! [02:41] Can someone help me install a /boot partition to a floppy disk? [02:41] And by 'any ideas', I mean, how can I set up 'Desktop' to actually be my desktop folder [02:42] jupiterbroadcasting.com to watch Lunix Action Show [02:42] Horusofoz1: I read that with enough space on a EEPC virtualbox will run on that to :) [02:42] Linux* [02:42] ripps: I need to check if an upstream kernel patch made it into jaunty before I bother installing. :-) [02:42] happyface: why? [02:42] happyface: why a /boot on a floppy?

[02:43] How Do ni upgrade on an inplace system? [02:43] debs are .tar.gzs [02:43] StevenC68: how much RAM you got? not sure if Vista in a virtual machine will work with 1GB RAM [02:43] I'll be back - going to try some tthings - (very active IRC - wow) [02:43] happyface: i dont think that that is possible [02:43] with a certain directory tree [02:43] swap space should be primary or logical? [02:43] !upgrade | TopBunny88 [02:43] TopBunny88: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes - see also http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/upgrading [02:43] I'm 3gb RAM - duo core 2.6 .... [02:43] how do i download unetbootin on ubuntu?] [02:43] hmm. "This computer is currently using the AMD 'fglrx' graphics driver. No version of this driver is available that works with your hardware in Ubuntu 9.04." Intel Rage 200M laptop video card. Seems hard to imagine it isn't fully supported under Jaunty, it's a common chipset. anyone know anything about this? [02:43] cool. Thanks guys:) [02:43] szf: well, there has to be a way to tell the PC to boot from the SATA hdd, through a floppy [02:43] they have control.tar.gz, data.tar.gz (? can't remember the name) and another file which isn't a tarball [02:43] StevenC68: with 8.10 some guy had an issue with 3GB RAM. he got really slow and laggy [02:43] i thought java was gpl now, why do i have to accept some random license? [02:43] Any info on switching from windows to ubuntu? PDFs? [02:43] i think that other file is just .deb info [02:43] StevenC68: hope you don't get such issues with 9.04 [02:44] szf you still here [02:44] happyface: yes, but only the boot loader [02:44] Horusofoz1: what do you use your computer for, mostly? [02:44] MrVampy: yes, i may miss posts [02:44] sebsebseb: Ya - :) - ok I'll be back - going to try some stuff - then I'll be back to contribute [02:44] happyface: a modern kernel won't fit on a floppy. but if you have an IDE drive in the machine, you could have grub on it, then have it transfer control to the SATA drive. [02:44] Horusofoz1: what about pdfs? [02:44] no prob.. havent posted since your weblink [02:44] oh, looks like I need to mess with .config/user-dirs.dirs. nm! [02:44] jschall: I guess since the version Ubuntu has is not the GPL one [02:44] PhotoJim: they have kernels that will fit on floppies. Just not in this distro [02:45] carlomagno, is that library included in any ubuntu packages? [02:45] most linux distros have programs which read pdfs [02:45] hey guys anything big as to why i would update distros... running 8.10? [02:45] SZF :using the boot option changing will work even though i'm instal correct [02:45] !pdf | jschall [02:45] histo: it would be tough to make a 2.6.2x kernel fit. not impossible I suppose. very hard though.

[02:45] what would cause application audio to not work? Startup sound works, as does test audio device...but applications dont. [02:45] MrVampy: i dont understand the question [02:45] sebsebseb: send that to Horusofoz1, not me... [02:45] Hi, I'm trying to install a package that can't install while 'xdm' is running. Since xdm is part of X, I assume I need to close X somehow and get to a commandline-only situation. [02:45] mikechelen: what's your video card [02:45] !pdf | Horusofoz1 [02:45] Horusofoz1: pdf is the Portable Document Format created by Adobe; viewable in GNU/Linux with xpdf/kpdf/okular/evince, and also adobe reader (free download, but closed source) [02:45] mikechelen, i already check in synaptic and nothing [02:45] PhotoJim: absolutely very difficult. I've only seen it used for diskless systems that act as routers etc.. [02:46] happyface: it can be done but it's a lot of work. might be easier to just find someone who has a spare IDE drive they don't need. even a one- or two-gig drive would do. [02:46] At work, administration and soon web authoring. A bit of multimedia. Same at home with a fair bit of net and email. Oh and a few games. But I'll have my desktop xp for that. I want ubuntu more for productivity. admin/design work. Maybe a low end game or 2 for when travelling [02:46] SZF: you posted a link for the boot options changing, will these changes work the same during a fresh install of Ubuntu [02:46] MrVampy: once installed you can optimize (or de-optimze) the kernel [02:46] can anyone tell me the Ubuntu equivalent of kernel-hugemem?

I eventually learned the trick to make a modest /boot partition and it happily boots off hard disk now. [02:46] PhotoJim: so it's not as easy as installing grub on the floppy? [02:46] MrVampy: i think they would [02:46] if i understand correctly [02:46] MrVampy: yes. you can adjust [02:46] hello === zhanx is now known as Zh[a]nx [02:46] * Zh[a]nx is away: Gone away for now [02:46] why upgrade distros? n e thing particularly great about 9? === hatah is now known as brEz_ [02:47] MrVampy: post-install [02:47] carlomagno, maybe try advanced search on ubuntu packages website to locate it [02:47] andres_: nope [02:47] happyface: hmm. good question. I don't think you can boot grub off a floppy. I think you could only boot a kernel off floppy and it'd have to fit in 1440 megabytes. [02:47] k [02:47] ey. [02:47] SZF : preinstall not post [02:47] ty [02:47] andres_: i'm waiting for the apc magazine to put it on their dvd [02:47] the onboard wireless doesn't work on this as the drivers are too old [02:47] Hey folk whazup [02:47] anyone have an epson stylus NX105 working? considering buying one [02:47] so i'm using external USB wireless [02:47] heh [02:47] MrVampy: ive never done that - never had to [02:47] sebsebseb: You won't believe it! - if I ctrl+host key thingy - it goes full screen and self adjusts resolution! it's so n00b I shouldn't even type it! [02:47] jschall I use the N300 and it works well [02:47] mikechelen: I don't know, I don't have an nvidia on either of my computers [02:47] mikechelen, ill see thanks mike [02:48] i've had a canon i865 working on debian before === Zh[a]nx is now known as zhanx [02:48] StevenC68: no I think that's probably a good find [02:48] * zhanx is back. [02:48] In my login menu I have the option to boot to failsafe terminal, but I don't think that would work for me because I need an internet connection to run sudo aptitude... [02:48] on the newer systems neither have i.. but this one is very old [02:48] I'm upgrading from 8.10 to 9.04..... It's been "Getting new packages" for 4 hours now... it hasn't moved from Fetching file 1102 of 1232... Does anyone have an idea of why this might be? [02:48] i don't know about the NX105 though [02:48] oh boy... busy in here tonight [02:48] MrVampy: adjusted the default grub lines in an attempt to prevent strange behaviors (like sleep) [02:48] Do i have to download the 9.04 cd image/ [02:48] i upgrade to 9.04 , but my sysytem doesn't work [02:48] NOD62: it could be openoffice [02:48] NOD62: The severs being flooded by users upgrading? [02:48] StevenC68: on the subject of noob though, running Ubuntu for a long time inside Virtualbox inside WIndows, now that's noob [02:48] I dont think my problem is a major one, I just don't know how to fix it [02:48] ripps, maybe trying different version of proprietary driver would help? [02:49] gm|lap: I haven't opened openoffice? [02:49] there are about 4-5 printers in my house. not a single one of them works with ubuntu. [02:49] mikechelen: worth a shot [02:49] StevenC68: same thing for wubi if people run that for ages, instead of a real proper partitioned install [02:49] ripps: Really? [02:49] Im trying to create a bootable usb with USB startup disk creator but i get errors.. can anyone tell me what they mean? [02:49] If I installed 9.04 beta, and updated to the most recent releases... then should i do a reformat now that the full release is out or am I already using that? [02:49] jschall name one of your printers [02:49] NOD62: i mean it could be downloading it [02:49] I just did a fresh install of jaunty (64bit), with the root filesystem on an lvm lv. After the install finished, I chrooted to /target and installed lvm2 (and watched it regenerate the initrd). However, lvm is not in the initrd, so I can't mount /. Is this a known problem? [02:49] Do i have to download the 9.04 cd image? [02:49] 8.10 comes with openoffice [02:49] jschall: any decent laser printer will work with any Linux distribution. [02:49] carlomagno, what is the library name? [02:49] unless of course you're using the server version [02:49] @Topbunny do you wanna just update? [02:50] even a cheap laser like the brother HL2140 works well [02:50] You could just update through the normal update manager. [02:50] salut c fred [02:50] Anyone having issues with sound not working with 9.04 Jaunty? [02:50] gm|lap: Well, I already have it, and i don't know why it would take 4 hours to download openoffice. >_> I think the other guy had a morel likely choice... [02:50] I am UnknownGurl [02:50] ripps, yeah except with these drivers 3d accel is finally working :P [02:50] If I installed 9.04 beta, and updated to the most recent releases... then should i do a reformat now that the full release is out or am I already using that? [02:50] A3K: props to that 50$ laser [02:50] @UnknownGurl whats your sound card? [02:50] i don't have issue's but ive heard of others having issue's [02:50] Hey guys. Does anyone know how I could copy data from a CD when it tells me I do not have permission to do so on Ubuntu 8.10? [02:50] storrgie: updates will make your system a full 9.04 release system.

[02:50] my sound works - startup sounds and test device, but applications will not work [02:50] NOD62: the thing is, openoffice is pretty huge... are you sure you have the updated version of openoffice or just the one which came with it? [02:50] !beta | storrgie [02:50] storrgie: If you installed a Alpha/Beta/RC version of Ubuntu 9.04 (Jaunty Jackalope) and have been keeping it up to date, then you are already running the latest version of Jaunty. To make sure, type « sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade » in a console. [02:51] @benster .. can't you access root ? Or su - [02:51] Eternal Lands crashes when I try to change settings [02:51] mikechelen: no, im a little dissapointed with brasero though. [02:51] oh no... how do i tell my system that /usr/bin is where it hsould look for ffmpeg? [02:51] JK3mp: On-boardRealTek ALC1200 [02:51] benster, check user permissions? [02:51] gm|lap: The one that came with it, I haven't updated it. [02:51] A3K: well there's an ancient xerox which is a winprinter [02:51] is it possible to remove evolution completely and set Thunderbird up as default browser in it's place? [02:51] Yeah Realtek in general have been having issue's...check the forums i believe theres answers there [02:51] jschall model number? [02:51] A3K: and then there's an oki color laser that doesn't work [02:51] then it could quite possibly be updating it. [02:51] ubuntuforums.org forums...to be specific i guess [02:51] JK3mp: ok thanks [02:52] A3K: don't remember, i can go look though. it's listed as a paperweight on openprinting [02:52] uit [02:52] There are several with that problem and several people have solved it for them. [02:52] gm|lap: So you're suggesting that this open office update is causing what appears to be a freeze up during the upgrade? [02:52] after all, openoffice 3.0 was released last october, apparently [02:52] Im about to get off or i'd look up how they did it myself xD [02:52] Horusofoz1: remove Evo? there be dragond [02:52] that would be an indicator it doesnt work. [02:52] A3K: duh. [02:52] NOD62: i'm not saying it's frozen, i'm saying it's still downloading it... [02:52] @UnknownGurl Good luck [02:52] hrm. [02:52] how fast is your internet? [02:52] a lot of old printers dont work with windows though...CUPS and Gutenprint support a TON of printers [02:52] oh no... how do i tell my system that /usr/bin is where it hsould look for ffmpeg? [02:53] PhotoJim: I'm gonna install GRUB to floppy using a tutorial I found and tell you the results [02:53] storrgie, you can remove brasero if you like, seems no need for reformat [02:53] wait... what are you using to update it? [02:53] s/it/ubuntu/ [02:53] anyone have any ideas on my audio problem? Sound works but not with applications [02:53] A3K: why can't there just be one single standard protocol for talking to printers? [02:53] I am having an interesting problem connected to my wifi in 9.04 on a macbook 4.1 Is there someone well versed in broadcom pain? [02:53] happyface: yeah, you can't break anything trying. :) [02:53] mikechelen: is there a way to remove evolution? [02:53] sfz: What?? [02:53] Leaving to watch some TV [02:53] jschall ask the manufacturers... :/ [02:53] A3K: theres a lot on ubuntuforums posts on that [02:53] Hey guys - quick question if I'm not interrupting. Can I upgrade to 9.04 from my 8.10 with the 9.04 live cd without losing my stuff? [02:54] sfz I will look again [02:54] A3K: the manufacturers are dumb. [02:54] storrgie: considering that it's linux, of course there's *some* way. i'm not sure if apt will do it though [02:54] Darkning: You need the 9.04 Alternate CD to upgrade. [02:54] lemme have a look [02:54] Darkning: (or you can upgrade without the CD, just over the internet) [02:54] Well yeah its downloading now but at a really slow rate. [02:54] A3K: the only thing that worked for me was to be very sure I was a member of all three audio groups [02:54] sebsebseb: i'm back [02:54] gm|lap: yea it wants to remove a bunch of extra stuff, i think there is an issue [02:54] So I wanted to use a download manager to get it more quickly. [02:54] storrgie: have you tried this? apt-get remove evolution [02:54] what does it try to remove? [02:54] I just really dont want the processes running... like evolution data server [02:54] storrgie, default mail can be switched to another app, or evolution can be uninstalled from package manager [02:54] yes i have [02:54] erm, sudo apt-get remove evolution [02:54] that is [02:54] no it cannot [02:54] but yeah [02:55] oh, right [02:55] jschall: lol there was one protocol, but they made more money splitting it up [02:55] someone using UsbAdslModemManager or UbuDsl in 9.04? [02:55] all i have is evolution-alarm-notify [02:55] <|PiP|> is there an ubuntu dvd that includes both 32-bit and 64-bit editions? [02:55] storrgie, change startup preferences and deselect the service [02:55] A3K: did you start w clean install (incl. /home/$USER) or not? [02:55] doleyb: why? [02:55] mikechelen: which one do i want to disable [02:55] hello [02:55] storrgie: System -> Preferences -> Session [02:56] gm|lap: im not a basic sorry user, i know all these things. there is nothing for evolution other than the notification thing for events [02:56] jschall: Because by introducing incompatible protocols, they made it harder for customers to change to a competing vendor. [02:56] that still does not disable the data server [02:56] sfz I did an upgrade of 64 bit. It worked fine before [02:56] sebsebseb: what was that channel again? [02:56] storrgie: desktop or server, what version, what arch? [02:56] i have desktop 8.10 i386 [02:56] it still works, but not in applications. [02:56] btw, to extract a deb: dpkg-deb --extract [02:56] doleyb: but then they also made it harder for customers to switch from a competing vendor [02:56] (despite this being a 64-bit arch, i just don't have the x86-64 version) [02:57] doleyb: so i don't buy that. [02:57] A3K: ok - youre out of my k-base [02:57] If I go to the CLI and type "cd ./Packages". Am I corrent in thinking that the "./" part of that is filled in by the shell with the current directory name? [02:57] I can test the sound device and it plays the start sound...it plays it when it starts...but no sound in games/browser/multimedia apps [02:57] A3K: ive just completed a 64-bit install, but server only - no X, no sound [02:58] storrgie: have you checked /etc/rc?.d ? [02:58] /etc/rc2.d is probably the one you want to have a look into [02:58] Recount rocks [02:58] MarkJones: yes. [02:58] I dont see that problem on forums. They seem to be complete failure. Mine is no application sound [02:58] gm|lap, is there a gui editor for that? [02:58] if there's an S??evolution-whatever, change the S to a K [02:58] A3K: killall pulseaudio [02:58] mikechelen: there might be, they're called runlevels [02:58] MarkJones: correct. [02:58] how do i upgrade release candidate to the full release? [02:58] A3K: youc an also remove the pulseaudio package fro now to fix the issue. [02:59] vapor: if you have all the updates it is full release. [02:59] System -> Administration -> Services, perhaps? [02:59] !who | gm|lap [02:59] gm|lap: As you can see, this is a large channel. If you're speaking to someone in particular, please put their nickname in what you say (use !tab), or else messages get lost and it becomes confusing :) [02:59] JK3mp: Fixed it. :) [02:59] hello [02:59] i need help [02:59] i know [02:59] I want to update from Hardy to Jackalope do I have to upgrade to Ibex first [02:59] Flannel, where is the alternate CD download location on the web site? [02:59] Sweet thank you. Man I realy like shell scripting for stuff like installing an offline set of deb packages.Made a simple install.sh script for each folder of packages and I just run the script.No manual changeing directories or manually typing in the dpkg commands.Nice. [02:59] vapor: just run update-manager. very little will need to be updated depending on when you last updated. [02:59] can anyone help me here? [03:00] scott9876: nope. [03:00] !ask | LukeB [03:00] LukeB: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line, so others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) [03:00] mikechelen / storrgie: System -> Administration -> Services, perhaps? [03:00] unknown how do I made the hop [03:00] vapor: i looked up that info myself - the goog says to run update-manager -d (if it makes u feel better) ;-) [03:00] ok thank you.later! [03:00] alright, it will not let me enable desktop effects, butin 8.10 it worked just fine [03:00] thanks for the help guys [03:00] vapor: otherwise, what the other guy said [03:00] scott9876: When you check for updates it should tell you at the top "New version available" [03:00] histo I am going to restart my server and see if that fixed it. I removed pulseaudio [03:01] And they didn't bother to bring in the upstream fix for b43legacy into the kernel they're shipping with Jaunty. [03:01] be back if still dead [03:01] no it have 8.10 [03:01] !mp3 [03:01] For multimedia issues, this page has useful information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats - See also https://help.ubuntu.com/9.04/musicvideophotos/C/video.html - But please use free formats if you can: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeFormats [03:01] gm|lap, that has a bunch, yet does not include common services such as tor and mpd [03:01] anyone going to help me? [03:01] scott9876: odd... maybe check in the ubuntu forms then [03:01] i can't believe people still use irc, i haven't used irc since like 1998 [03:02] !offtopic | vapor [03:02] vapor: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics. Thanks! [03:02] LukeB: so your pbolem is that compiz isn't working. [03:02] mikechelen: looks like they half-assed the services thing... i remember mandrake 8.1 / redhat 7.1 in about 2003 or 2004 or something [03:02] !repeat | LukeB [03:02] LukeB: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. You can search https://help.ubuntu.com or http://wiki.ubuntu.com while you wait. Also see !patience [03:02] they had a runlevel editor [03:02] mikechelen: you can use update-rc.d for system services. for things that startup in your session you go to System > Preferences > Session [03:02] gm|lap: update-rc.d [03:02] you could enable/disable ANYTHING [03:02] how do I get mp3 support? [03:03] !mp3 > hotdog [03:03] hotdog, please see my private message [03:03] doesn't have it here as i haven't updated [03:03] unkmar: basicly, it searches for the hardware then it gives me a error saying "Can not enable desktop effects" [03:03] gm|lap: yes you do. [03:03] histo that worked [03:03] thanks a lot [03:03] A3K: np [03:03] UnknownGurl: your referring to update manager correct? [03:03] histo, system -> prefs -> startup applications? [03:03] how much trouble would I be asking for if I attempt to upgrade ubuntu intrepid to jaunty? What if my one of my intrepid installs is xubuntu? [03:03] mikechelen: what do you want to disable? [03:03] ben@95lx:/etc$ cat /etc/update-rc.d [03:03] cat: /etc/update-rc.d: No such file or directory [03:03] I wouldn't feel as bad if this upgrade manager told me the status of whatever it is that's taking over 4 hours in the same spot. +_+ === nicholas__ is now known as tacosarecool [03:04] i have 8.10. [03:04] hopefully I wont have to darken the door here again :) I do wish my pinnacle tv card worked though [03:04] Has anyone ever seen System Monitor CPU usage jump only when it is being actively watched? What I'm seeing is 90-100% CPU usage if I am watching the Resources tab, but the historical data line shows 10-20% usage for the time I was looking at the other tabs. [03:04] gm|lap: its an application you can use [03:04] i am waiting until someone has 9.04 on a CD before i use it [03:04] oh, right. [03:04] gm|lap: try which update-rc.d [03:04] gm|lap: Why's that? [03:04] unkmar u there? [03:04] Yay, im almost done upgrading :D [03:04] NOD62: not much bandwidth [03:04] histo, storrgie wants to disable evolution data server [03:05] neo644: you have only begun! [03:05] Does anyone have experience with USB Startup Disk Creator? [03:05] no im cleaning up [03:05] Question: why do they label a kernel as "2.6.28" when it has at least some modules that are pre "2.6.26"? [03:05] the main thing you want to do is find where it spawns it [03:05] Neo, is the download going slow for you too? [03:05] it would be nice if the connexant based pinnacle digital TV tuner cards would "just work" but we cant haver everything I suppose [03:05] has anyone seen where the Broadcom card is installed and recognized but the network manager plasmoid doesn't see the wifi connection? [03:05] mikechelen: the evolution alarm server? [03:05] mikechelen: what version of ubuntu? [03:05] DouglasK: sometimes there's no point in updating EVERYTHING [03:05] jj__: yes you need the firmware if you are using an old version of ubuntu. [03:05] !broadcom > jj__ [03:05] jj__, please see my private message [03:06] unkmar u there?? [03:06] jj__: does it appear in iwconfig? (ps plasmoids are kde) [03:06] Darkning: Has the download slowed down to the point that it doesn't look like it's going anywhere? [03:06] gm|lap, ah. Well, in this case, they pruned out the fix that lets some broadcom wireless G cards go over 1Mb/s. [03:06] Nah it's just slower than my 5mbps internet. :B [03:06] histo, idk storrgie left :| [03:06] ouch. [03:06] so does anyone else know what i have to do? please help :-\ [03:06] Darkning: Wholey shit. [03:06] doley: no, it doesn't [03:06] megabits btw, just a standard line [03:06] When I upgraded from 8.10 to 9.04 my cpu is spiking at 100%. If I create a new account and log in the cpu is fine. Is there a know config file that causes this? [03:07] gm|lap, I guess if I upgrade, it's back to custom kernels. [03:07] Darkning: That's a buisness line speed, is it not? [03:07] doleyb: no wlan0 [03:07] Darkning: Same place as the regular one. Check Alternate Cd. Or, releases.ubuntu.com [03:07] any one knows how long vmware page has been down? [03:07] mikechelen: ahh thought it was you that needed the help. [03:07] someone should turn around and say "that's not really fair, if you're not happy with it, stick the limit in your hardware or on the receiving end." [03:07] SuperMiguel: working here [03:07] pardon me if I'm blind I just don't see the check option [03:07] histo, to download the the server edition [03:07] there's a 32/64 bit [03:07] 30 minutes of battery left [03:07] histo, http://www.vmware.com/products/server/ [03:08] when it gets down to 10 i plug it in.

[03:21] which means that when I install Ubuntu 8.10 the sound stopped working [03:21] Linuz2009: before we get too technical, check your sound manager and see if PCM is set to an audible volume === mrlolplx is now known as mrlol [03:21] Can't open volume. no Gstream plugin/device control [03:21] oh i need help with sound too, tofu_logic, my sound is very low [03:22] * DouglasK makes a post to the forums to let others know how to get >1Mb/s with their BCM4306 wireless card.

[03:23] all: Anyone installed on a RS600 B50 before? [03:24] LukeB: can you pastebin your /var/log/Xorg.0.log [03:24] I installed from a live CD [03:24] !paste | LukeB [03:24] ubuntu has iptables as a default firewall i believe [03:24] LukeB: pastebin is a service to post multiple-lined texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu.com (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the channel topic) === GodfatherofEire1 is now known as GodfatherofEire [03:24] after installation the sound stopped working [03:24] if you want a more graphical firewall install Firestarter [03:24] my last operating system I used SoundMAX as my mixer device [03:24] Linuz2009, so it was working while you were running the live CD?

[03:25] er, Buttons840 [03:25] any repo mirrors on the west coast getting decent speeds? [03:25] etzerd, do this: sudo apt-get update [03:26] Istarnes, what you going to say?

I did that before It take more than an hour. [03:27] Buttons840: read what ubottu said about ctrl+alt+backspace [03:27] this update gna take ahwile to download [03:27] Kr0ntab, what do you mean? [03:27] Hi all. Anyone seen a problem with the new VNC server in 9.04? I can't get any VNC client to play nice. The standard "Remote Desktop Viewer" pops up a display, but the display won't update; UltraVNC won't even connect, throwing an error.. [03:27] I see latest release has caused lots of chatter. I'm trying to install 8.x but hardware (RS6000 B50 2U rack mount server) is unwieldy. Can use some help, if anyone has experience here. [03:27] crap nearly ran out of power [03:27] etzerd, try it some times later - but this will fix the problem for you [03:28] TBotNik: a) Which release? (8.04 or 8.10?), b) Is there a specific problem with the hardware that you can elaborate on? [03:28] LukeB: hold up looking some more. [03:28] etzerd, I have same issue last night -- now it's fixed when I run : apt-get update [03:28] does ext3 or ext4 offer performance (and when I say performance, I mean speed) improvement over ext2? [03:28] thanks [03:28] histo: ok that's fine :) Thank you so much for the help btw [03:29] Myrtti: Hello there.. long time no see/speak.. My head is demented trying to get xchat-gnome to automatically identify me as Paddy_EIRE when connecting...

[03:29] !medibuntu | etzerd [03:29] etzerd: medibuntu is a repository of packages that cannot be included into the Ubuntu distribution for legal reasons - See http://www.medibuntu.org [03:29] etzerd: medibuntu.org [03:29] I already read the wiki, it don't recall reading of any specific improvement.s [03:29] so i got my resolution stuck on ubuntu ff and showes like 8 of same thing.. have no on board vid so cant change [03:30] LukeB: here you go http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1134984 [03:30] buttons... Speed = ext4 [03:30] Buttons840: well, for me ext3 is hard to resize (speed I guess is YMMV) [03:30] LukeB: you may want to follow the directions for reverting to the 2.4 intel drivers. [03:30] how do you convert ext3 -> 4? [03:30] Buttons840: there are plenty nofication thingy speed ext4 etc... [03:30] Buttons840: ext4 has performance advantages over ext2, but ext3 doesn't really. ext3's improvement over ext2 is reliability, due to the journal. [03:30] histo: ok thank you, ill tell u how it goes :-P [03:31] Is there any way to make acpi temperatures more accurate? It only detects 48* and 55* - or is this a hardware/BIOS issue? [03:31] hey, im having an issue installing ati drivers for my 4870x2 on jaunty, would anyone be able to assist me? [03:31] etzerd, not sure but try here: http://www.videolan.org/developers/libdvdcss.html [03:31] mikechelen: you have to boot of the install cd so the drive isn't mounted and run tune2fs command. [03:31] hw [03:31] ic, thanks tony [03:31] mikechelen: then fsck and mount and edit fstab to ext4 [03:31] histo: so you want me to do everything they did? including to remove xserver-xorg-video-i740 [03:31] to make ext3=ext4 check the ubuntu forum i saw a thrad there a hoir agoç [03:31] VNC Server....9.04...anyone? :'( [03:31] tonyyarusso: 8.04 Box has no VIC so no video. Added one, but still nothing. Appears was using TTY video on COM port, not sure how to connect to that. [03:31] LukeB: that shouldn't matter. [03:32] histo, how do you mount root encrypted drive from livecd? [03:32] can I update 8.04 (hardy) file system to ext4 ? [03:32] LukeB: but the one person said that going to the 2.4 driver helped his issues. [03:32] packetwhacker: nope and 8.04 is still recommended for servers [03:32] could anyone please tell me how to force i386 architecture on a 64 bit system? [03:32] geniehost: no [03:32] mikechelen: you encrypted / [03:32] TBotNik: Are you using the "Desktop", "Alternate", or "Server" CD image to install? [03:32] geniehost: ext4 isn't in any versions earlier than 9.04 [03:32] geniehost: don't think you can anyway [03:32] can i reset the video settings in the recovery you can select to get terminal command prompt? [03:32] histo, using alt cd install option [03:32] sebx3 Nah, It's desktop, but I'm having issues with the "VNC Server" vino-server... [03:32] histo: so you want me to follow the directions to revert to an older driver? [03:32] kdask: just install the i386 version from the i386 cd [03:32] sebastien, why? [03:33] geniehost: other guy just answered that [03:33] ext4 is still not recommended for production. [03:33] after installing my drivers, either from AMDs site or from the restricted drivers, and upon rebooting, the ubuntu logo would come up and progress bar go all the way to 100%, then it would flash black, and up comes the booting progress, then it goes black, and booting progress comes up again, then black, then two smaller ubuntu logos, somewhat faded out on top of the screen, kinda pixelated, and it just hangs there [03:33] fen_: lol [03:33] geniehost: If you update the OS, you can then also update the filesystem, but you can't have ext4 while still running 8.04. (At least not in a supoorted fashion.) [03:33] fen_: blah de blah at that [03:33] geniehost ext4 comes only in newer versions of the kernel [03:33] fen_: Ext4 works rather well for many people that have used it [03:33] LukeB: if you want to it sounds like it fixed their issue. Unless someone else has an idea. I think there was mention of something else on the release notes. Let me forward you that link also. [03:33] lstarnes: but i have a 64 bit system, wont i lose some advantage if i install the i386 version? [03:33] DangerIsGo, what video card? [03:33] fen_: and important data should be backed up elsewhere anyway, just to be sure [03:33] true [03:33] 4870x2 [03:33] hi helpme notify-osd missing [03:33] ok, i've added a rule to allow port 16001 and it's still filtered >_> [03:33] tonyyarusso: Using DT livecd. Init takes a while, then CD spins, but with no video can not determine what box is doing. Was POS (Kash-N-Karry) dedicated appliance, when I bought it. [03:34] fen_: I think once the kernel maintainers call it stable, that's good enough for production. :) [03:34] kdask: wait, are you trying to run 32-bit binaries on a 64-bit system? [03:34] according to nmap [03:34] yahoo voice in ubuntu? [03:34] whats new on 9.04? [03:34] but generally, you don't want to have to have your server down for an hour while your restore from backup because your fs crashed. [03:34] gm|lap: One hour later, and still in the same spot... 5 hours in the same spot. [03:34] [03:34] f [03:34] c [03:34] fc [03:34] NOD62: ouch. [03:34] [03:34] lstarnes: im trying to run 32 bit programs on a 64 bit system, if thats what you mean. [03:34] tom_: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. [03:34] NOD62: what are you using to update ubuntu? [03:34] tonyyarusso: I put up forum post at: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1133527 [03:34] after upgrade file operations are taking forever to open the dailog box to open a file [03:34] LukeB: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/UxaTesting [03:34] gm|lap: the update-manager. [03:34] kdask: You don't need to do anything special for that to work [03:35] histo: ok thank you [03:35] i have the same problem that dangerisgo, because of the ATI driver... i use sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg but it doesn't work like it used to... it only ask for keyboard stuff. [03:35] kdask: but you need to have whatever 32-bit libraries the 32-bit program depends on [03:35] there was some wiki entry that i found to install the 9.4 drivers on jaunty, and i followed them to the T, and sitll nothing, here is the link: http://wiki.cchtml.com/index.php/Ubuntu_Jaunty_Installation_Guide#installing_the_restricted_drviers_manually [03:35] TBotNik: It's quite likely that the DT disk doesn't play nice with your server video hardware, since that sort of configuration isn't really tested generally. I would suggest trying one of the other disk images, which will use a text-based installer method. (Still super simple, just easier on the graphics.) [03:35] ok does anyone know much about the new postfix-dovecot package, does its allow for virtual mailboxes? [03:35] pls [03:35] sam0: is it working for you? [03:35] yahoo voice in ubuntu? [03:35] or did you keep them removed? [03:35] or yahoo mail on evolution? [03:35] hey yall. [03:36] space_cadet: what about it? You aren't asking an actual question [03:36] Has anybody in here had any problems with ubuntu 9.4? [03:36] helpme how to activate notify-osd in ubuntu 9.04 [03:36] any howto's on either lstarnes [03:36] smokinjoe: yes [03:36] Hello. If i have ubuntu and xp installed on same computer and the disk crashes do i use windows recovery or ubuntu recovery? [03:36] Wyzard: i get the error message "Wrong Architecture: i386" when i try to install it. [03:36] smokinjoe: its a support room. [03:36] histo: one more quick question, were can i find xorg.conf [03:36] ^root^:lol [03:36] LukeB: its in /etc/X11/xorg.conf [03:36] How do I turn the notifications that keep poping up from pidgin in 9.04? [03:36] kdask: what are you trying to run? [03:36] histo: ok ty [03:36] Does anyone know where I can find the service tag??? [03:36] lstarnes, i thought both were valid questions though. [03:36] aAnuVizZ: isnt it active by default? [03:36] sam0: is it working for you? or did you keep them uninstalled? [03:37] gm|lap: Update-manger is the way to do it, correct? [03:37] lstarnes: flash player [03:37] Roman__: What do you mean by "service tag"? [03:37] kdask: you can't install a package built for i386 Ubuntu on amd64 Ubuntu [03:37] NOD62: i'm not familiar with it. [03:37] Well support me and just tell me if there are any major problems with it;-) [03:37] kdask: I think there's a 64-bit alpha of the flash player [03:37] dangerisgo after installing the ati driver with envy-ng it is still having that error [03:37] i'm not familiar with much of that stuff really [03:37] kdask: also, there's the flashplugin-nonfree package in the repos [03:37] harrimann_: depends what you want to recover? If you have serperate partitions you could recover each individually. You also have to keep in mind if you use grub boot manager from ubuntu then you may have to recover grub to recover your windows partition. [03:37] kdask: The kernel has the ability to run 32-bit programs, but installing packages built for another architecture isn't supported [03:37] so is this a driver issue? a jaunty issue? or a driver/jaunty issue? have you tried this driver on ibex? [03:37] lstarnes: I don't think its alpha [03:37] any clues on why after the upgrade open dialog boxes takes forever? [03:38] tonyyarusso: Do I need to add more info on the forum post? [03:38] !who DangerIsGo [03:38] Sorry, I don't know anything about who DangerIsGo [03:38] !who | DangerIsGo [03:38] DangerIsGo: As you can see, this is a large channel. If you're speaking to someone in particular, please put their nickname in what you say (use !tab), or else messages get lost and it becomes confusing :) [03:38] histo: thanks. i did use grub. so i have to restore grub?

[03:38] I am so glad that the Ubuntu installer sata + ide problem got fixed :) [03:38] detrate yes, gonna try it again [03:38] lstarnes: the alpha version is total s*** and i have already installed the one in the repos [03:38] Has upgrading to 9.04 from 8.10 been known to break binary compatibilities like 8.10 from 8.04LTS? [03:38] in windows, got stupid blue screen. then reboot and get SYSTEM DISK ERROR PUSH KEY TO CONTINUE [03:38] what is the keyboard command for "go" in firefox? *important* [03:38] Anyone know how to move docky's position on the screen?? (v0.8.1.3) [03:38] enter [03:38] sam0: have you tried older driver versions w/ jaunty? [03:39] TBotNik: If you have any more info, by all means add it, but I think the bigger reason you haven't gotten a response yet is that it seems like a fairly obscure problem. Hopefully you'll find something that works. [03:39] kdask: (You could use dpkg --force-architecture but depending on the package that may break things, possibly overwriting 64-bit programs/libraries with 32-bit ones, or thinking the 32-bit package's library dependencies are satisfied when the libraries are actually 64-bit ones that a 32-bit program can't use) [03:39] ctrl+l or alt+d to get to the address bar [03:39] harrimann_: did you install ubuntu on its own partition or did you use wubi? [03:39] TBotNik: You could also try sending a note to the ubuntu-users mailing list as well. [03:39] Installing Jaunty w/ alternate gives me "Install the base sytem: debootstrap warning: failure trying to run .....deb" [03:39] 不 [03:39] One of my friend said whenever their is a new Ubuntu release, Ubuntu developers will conduct an introductory session about the new release, where can I get this Introductory session? [03:39] own partition and own disk [03:39] Its_me: there is a tour on the home page [03:39] GodfatherofEire: Every release needs to upgrade packages - what exactly do you mean?

[03:40] benster: have you read wowwiki on it? [03:40] happyface: It's possible that either your download image or burn was defective. Try checking the CD with the "CHeck CD for defects" boot option if you haven't already.

I have a Windows Vista partition (untouched by me, system default) and an Ubuntu partition. I planned to boot a live cd and use shred to wipe the ubuntu partition. Is this what I ought to do? [03:41] Wyzard: so will dpkg --force-architecture affect other programs ? [03:41] histo: when i try to save sources.list it won't let me [03:41] hey lads [03:41] tonyyarusso, remember how at first people were advised not to update to 8.10 but to do a fresh install instead, especially when considering wireless/network functions === broken is now known as brokn [03:41] benster: http://www.wowwiki.com/Wine#Installing_WoW [03:41] or does anyone know how to get pop access to yahoo with evolution?

[03:42] i have compiz icon installed, and if i click "reload" it works fine, but wont work otherwise [03:43] LukeB: you need to use sudo to edit hte file [03:43] !sudo | LukeB [03:43] LukeB: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more information. For graphical applications see !gksu (Gnome, XFCE), or !kdesudo (KDE) [03:43] space_cadet: fetchyahoo package?

Any suggestion / references would be nice. [03:43] how can I disable having mounted disks shown on my desktop? [03:43] kdask: possibly, depending on what exactly the package does [03:43] mikeypizano: Just put your question. Please do not introduce it. This will clobber the channel unnecesarily. [03:43] keystr0k: I dont know, never used shred [03:43] Anyone else having intel issues? I'm stable under UXA, but visual effects cannot be enabled. Whats the deal?

[03:46] tonyyarusso, no problem [03:46] kdask: not if you're running amd64 Ubuntu [03:46] syntax\: Yes. [03:46] GodfatherofEire: I haven't heard of anything like that this time around though - the only upgrading issues I've seen have been from alpha/betas of jaunty to final. [03:47] baz_ i think it is mv -t /asdf /asdfasdf [03:47] has anyone here installed ubuntu on a netbook (or a cd-rom-less computer?) [03:47] bullgard4: would my files still be ok? even if i chose upgrade from cd? [03:47] lstarnes: Thanks! [03:47] would i be downloading files again or not? [03:47] kdask: anyway, I believe there's a flash package for amd64 -- it's either loads the 32-bit plugin with nspluginwrapper, or it's the beta native 64-bit one that Adobe released awhile back [03:47] kdask: it can be a little bit tricky to get working though [03:47] intx i have [03:47] intx: there is a netbook remix version of ubuntu [03:47] kj4: what did you use? [03:47] Hi. My keyboard is broken on laptop. Now I've just connected external keyboard, so no problems. But is there any virtual keyboard in 9.04, that I can use? [03:47] anyone else had jaunty not allow laptop to go to widescreen resolution 1280x900? [03:48] lstarnes: is it long and complicated? [03:48] kdask: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1128497 suggests (in the last post on the first page) that ubuntu-restricted-extras should be all you need [03:48] i have mine working at 1280x800, does that help Python_user [03:48] the .img file on the ubuntu site [03:48] EEEbuntu NBR [03:48] kj4: .img file? [03:48] question: can i skip intrepid and jump hardy to jackalope and how? update manager wants to upgrade to intrepid [03:48] kdask: it should require only a couple commands [03:48] mikeypizano: so do I but thats not widescreen and it makes the font look a little weird [03:48] need to be x900 [03:48] ah [03:48] so nobody knows about getting tor on jaunty? [03:48] *needs [03:48] scott9876: I think you have to update to 8.10 first [03:49] yep, use dd to create it on a USB drive, then boot from that [03:49] worked perfectly on my dell mini 9 [03:49] well, ill bbl, i got to fo get this compiz thing sorted out [03:49] mikecb: [03:49] acorn1: for some reason the packages were removed. I'm not sure if the packages were supposed to be re-added [03:49] lame [03:49] lstarnes: things break will they resolove themselve with the next jump [03:49] scott9876: trying to skip a release isn't a good idea; the upgrade process isn't designed or tested for that [03:49] cause running a live jaunty is perfect [03:49] does the jaunty alternate installer download packages from the internet when it runs [03:49] Since when does ubuntu not support common resolutions out of the box? [03:49] has anyone gotten this working?? http://www.geocities.com/t_skariah/ypops/ [03:49] acorn1: it is possible to compile tor from source [03:50] syntax\: Not necessarily. If you had installed in the past some more packages (and thus programs to use), their configuration may go lost unless you backup them first (and thus can reload them after your upgrade). [03:50] lstarnes: would i be able to add an 8.10 repository to the package manager to get it? [03:50] hey [03:50] acorn1: that is not a good idea [03:51] is it possible to turn the backlight off on my laptop? [03:51] or turn it down past 10% [03:51] !hi | UbbyCD [03:51] UbbyCD: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu! [03:51] acorn1: there may be a repository that works with 9.04 that has tor in it [03:51] anyone notice jaunty doesnt do laptop widescreen out of the box anymore (intel)? [03:51] hi bots : ) [03:51] UbbyCD, have you tried the fn f7 key? [03:51] python_user: It worked for me. [03:51] mobi-sheep: what res? [03:51] im scared of that key what does it do [03:51] UbbyCD, fn + F7 sorry [03:51] Anyone knows how to set the "vesa", "nv", "ati" Video drivers in the recovery section??? In previous versions the dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg did the work, but now it only asks for keyboard stuff... Even changing the xorg.conf for the one that worked before doesn't work... Anyone knows? [03:52] I don't remember specifically but I know it's running native. 1440 x something. Let me check. [03:52] Okay. [03:52] is this some kinna trick? [03:52] This is rediculous. [03:52] lol [03:52] UbbyCD, on my asus it turns the backlight on my screen off. [03:52] mobi-sheep: I'm looking for default 1280x900 [03:52] is there any virtual keyboard in ubuntu? didn't find it through menu [03:52] ok lemme try [03:52] tahts the most common for a 15.4 screen [03:52] dang .. nada [03:52] UbbyCD, fn F5-F6 controls brightness..

[03:53] bullgard4: you need cdrkit-doc [03:53] bullgard4, is cdrecord a valid command?

[03:58] intx usb drive [03:58] DouglasK: yeah, but why would it do that? that means you cant use the widescreen resolution? [03:58] .deb [03:58] it always detected it as 15.4 [03:58] for the last 4 versionds [03:58] bullgard4, no manual entry? [03:58] Wyzard, Essentially, this only affects the login screen. Considering that we can boot directly to one account that is no problem, but it's still annoying. [03:58] i sudo-apt get installed it and it said it was allready installed and up to date [03:58] zhanx: did you download an iso and use unetbootin? [03:58] Hey all, I have a few partitions mounted under Ubuntu. But how do I name them? For instance one of my partitions appears on the desktop as "DATA" yet another appears as "76 GB Media". [03:58] intx yes [03:59] vocx: That article is about an xorg.conf that already had a Virtual line with the wrong numbers on it [03:59] intx, unetbootin here as well (not a netbook though) [03:59] Python_user: Can't say for sure about that, I'm running widescreen on Intrepid now. [03:59] intx: I just used the usb-startupcreator [03:59] acorn1: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/tor should have some info about what happened to the tor package [03:59] DouglasK: yeah I had no problems with Intrepid [03:59] vocx: which is different from having no Virtual line at all, and just using the default [03:59] space_cadet: 'cdrecord --help' produces a help text just as other command-line commands do. Why is ther no man page? [04:00] danbhfive the usb-startupcreator has yet to work one bit for me [04:00] Wyzard, it's not the wrong numbers. That's my exact behavior. It's having a virtual size that produces a big login screen. [04:00] bullgard4, http://cdrecord.berlios.de/private/man/cdrecord-2.0.html [04:00] space_cadet: There is no manual entry. [04:00] zhanx: what happens? [04:00] crashes with a segement fault [04:00] python_user, what video card? [04:01] vocx: It's having a virtual size that's bigger than your monitor's resolution that's the problem [04:01] Good evening. I have a question. I just upgraded from 8.10 to 9.04 on my Lenovo T60p laptop. Now when I boot up the system seems to boot fine until X.org start at which point the screen is garbled and the machine seems frozen. When this happens I cannot switch to a different virtual console and the machine does not respond to CTRL+ALT+BACKSPACE. Any ideas on what to do? [04:01] vocx: that person had a 1024x768 screen, but had somehow gotten "Virtual 1280 960" in xorg.conf, producing the problem [04:01] Wyzard, as you say, the Virtual size fools the login screen into thinking there is more room. But since you cannot pan in the login screen, you are screwed. But once you login, then everything is fine, because you can now pan.

[04:01] people [04:01] igor1121: ctrl alt bksp is disabled by default [04:01] vocx: hmm, didn't know panning doesn't work on the login screen... I don't see why it wouldn't === smartasstronaut_ is now known as smartasstroAWAY [04:02] !dontzap | igor1121 [04:02] igor1121: To re-enable the Ctrl+Alt+Backspace combination that restarts your X server, you can install the "dontzap" package and use the command « sudo dontzap --disable » [04:02] DouglasK: intel [04:02] igor1121, boot to live cd, backup your stuff and install clean? [04:02] BTW, I switched to using vesa driver in xorg.conf and it's still the same result. It's not a hardware issue since the livecd works fine. [04:02] vocx: but the whole virtual thing is a legacy feature as far as I'm concerned; I haven't seen it used in years [04:02] Hello, I have Ubuntu 8.10 installed on my system with an ATI graphics card and I frequently have problems. Some Ubuntu friends told me 8.04 might work better for me, what you folks think? [04:02] Wyzard, well, that's the problem: panning doesn't work in the login screen. [04:02] python_user, maybe I'll be lucky ... I'm on a slightly older nvidia. [04:02] space_cadet: that's what I gues I have to do. [04:02] ttoni: same problem here. Interesting... [04:03] DouglasK: irony... the intel driver is opensource so intrepid has excellent support, seems like they messed that up with jaunty [04:03] ttoni: maybe they really wanted you to get 9.04 [04:03] vocx: I'd say the problem is that you shouldn't have a virtual screen size bigger than the real screen size in the first place [04:03] Can anyone help me send print jobs from Mac OS X to Ubuntu? I have local printing working, and I have the printer set to share (port scan is showing 631 open) [04:03] Wyzard, I like the ability to pan. Because then I can put more things in a single workspace, instead of creating more workspaces which is also a solution. [04:03] XChat 2.8.4 how to save my room list, so every time I open xchat open my room list too?

The gui is not working for me. I think I need to create a .desktop file, but I'm not sure where I should put it. [04:03] ttoni: 8.04 works better for me though I had networking issues with 8.10. 8.04 is a LTS edition and will be supported for longer and in theory is more reliable :) [04:04] is ~/.local/share/applications/ the right place?

So far I only made it that 1st I ahve to pass the finger and the type the password..is there anyways I can type only one ? fingerprint is with "sufficient" [04:11] losher: i've tried different speeds and file systems and all [04:11] !fingerprint [04:11] Sorry, I don't know anything about fingerprint [04:11] losher Steffy and there's also reiserfstune for the reiserfs partitions [04:11] python_user: 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation 82845G/GL[Brookdale-G]/GE Chipset Integrated Graphics Device (rev 03) [04:11] vocx: I don't know why it thinks your system can do 1680x1200 but then doesn't actually use that resolution [04:11] hi [04:11] how shall I install tabuntu for 8.10 [04:11] my nVidia drivers wont work.. can someone help me? [04:11] LukeB: that card is blacklisted due to a software bug [04:11] losher: how does tune2fs name partitions? Not used it before [04:12] kevin009: I've never seen that particular failure mode. Which release of Ubuntu? [04:12] vocx: but if you put a line saying Modes "1280x1024" then it should use just that mode and no other, so you won't have 1680x1200 driving up the virtual size [04:12] python_user: so what do i do? [04:12] Steffy, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RenameUSBDrive [04:12] anyone know how to fix the installation problem with regards to unmounting the cdrom? [04:12] Steffy: sudo tune2fs -L "some label" [04:12] Steffy, it has info you want [04:12] LukeB: well, if you enable compiz, you could have unexpected side affects [04:12] Hi guys can anyone offer me advise on hosting control panels [04:12] *effects [04:12] Wyzard, the log I presented was without a Mode nor a Virtual line. That's what I'm telling you, it thinks about 1600x1200, it "tries" it on the login screen, but after logging in, it gets back to 12800x1024 [04:12] any staffers around? [04:12] thanks space_cadet, losher: will give that a try [04:12] Is Python2.5 not in symnatic? [04:12] vocx: Are you using gnome? [04:13] python_user: i just want to enable visual effects, to like normal [04:13] brEz_: staffers of what? [04:13] Hi, anyone have a mini 1000 (HP) [04:13] Wyzard, yes gnome [04:13] err, wrong channel :P [04:13] vocx: System->Preferences->Screen Resolution [04:13] LukeB: mkdir -p ~/.config/compiz/ && echo SKIP_CHECKS=yes >> ~/.config/compiz/compiz-manager [04:13] dont cry if it breaks [04:13] zhanx: thank yOU!!! it worked [04:13] I warned you [04:13] Wyzard, tried that already... [04:13] Buttons840: try python2.5 (case-sensitive) [04:13] what file system does ubuntu netbook remix use? [04:13] steltz i know it did [04:13] vocx: gnome is probably applying that setting at login; that's why it switches to 1280x1024 [04:13] intx prob etx3 disregarding its ssd [04:13] Do I need to install regular ubuntu first before installing edubuntu? [04:14] python_user: ok i ran that in the terminal now what [04:14] intx, you get to choose if you use the advanced partitioning [04:14] lstarnes: are you still here [04:14] but i mean ssd have a long life time now further than the netbook itself so it doesnt really matter [04:14] Wyzard: Hi, any idea why jaunty detects a 15.4 screen as 15 and wont allow the x900 wide screen res???? [04:14] kdask: yes [04:14] vocx: and that method of changing the screen resolution actually changes the virtual size too [04:14] what file system does ubuntu support that is okay with a ssd? [04:14] LukeB: logout and in then enable your shizzle [04:14] Istarnes: I try searching for "python," but only get python 2.6. :( [04:14] anyone? [04:14] intx ext2 [04:14] Can anyone tell me how I would get this to my server via terminal Debian package suitable for Debian, Ubuntu or other derived Linux [04:14] http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/webadmin/webmin_1.470_all.deb 14M [04:14] zhanx: how do you know [04:14] i need nVidia drivers [04:14] lstarnes: it says it installed the version for i686 on my system [04:14] python_user: enable my shizzle? lol how do i do that [04:14] Wyzard, by the way in 9.04 "Screen Resolution" is now "Display" [04:14] !webmin [04:14] webmin is no longer supported in Debian and Ubuntu. It is not compatible with the way that Ubuntu packages handle configuration files, and is likely to cause unexpected issues with your system. See !ebox instead. [04:15] FF [04:15] steltz had the same probem === brEz_ is now known as brEz [04:15] meoblast001: System -> Administration -> Hardware Drivers [04:15] LukeB: I meant enable your compiz/what ever you were trying to do [04:15] So I upgraded to 9.04 and now I guess the sound device is blocking!? (only one prog can use it at a time) [04:15] zhanx: i am steltz.... [04:15] vocx: changing the virtual size when switching screen resolutions wasn't supported years ago; that's what the panning was for [04:15] Do I need to install regular ubuntu first before installing edubuntu? its for my bosses kid, ive used ubuntu but not edubuntu [04:15] python_user: how do i enable it lol [04:15] ax57: no [04:15] but ebox does not create emails or databases or other things that plesk or cpanel create, is that right? [04:15] tritium, that locks up while installing [04:15] LukeB: It's in the appearences menu [04:15] excuse me, what is the development tools package called? i thought it used to be called dev-tools [04:15] or close too [04:15] steltz i had the same problem that better for you [04:15] you kno what contains a compiler [04:15] linker, etc, etc [04:15] make [04:16] glick: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. [04:16] all that good stuff [04:16] ax57: http://edubuntu.org/news/9.04-release [04:16] UbuntuGeek.com has a new article on fixing some Jauntu sound issues: http://www.ubuntugeek.com/sound-solutions-for-ubuntu-904-jaunty-users.html [04:16] python_user: ok so just log out? no need to restart? [04:16] tritium, i installed them directly off nvidia and now i'm prompted to go into low graphics mode every time i start [04:16] stfu repeating [04:16] What happened to #ubuntu+1 ? [04:16] i already told you [04:16] log out [04:16] then in [04:16] I can't play dvd in Ubuntu 9.04. I have installed libdvdcss2 [04:16] python_user: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. [04:16] tritum; could you kindly point me to a nice link to edubuntu, the one i have with linux pro mag is not working, oppps just seen you new msg i will check it out thanks [04:16] losher: it has been happening to me since like 7.04 up to 9.04 [04:16] lol [04:16] k [04:16] lstarnes ? [04:16] JohnFlux: it isn't needed anymore as 9.04 is now officially supported [04:16] kdask: so? [04:16] vocx: so if I understand correctly: your video driver defaults to 1680x1200 for some reason, so that's the size of your login screen, but when you log in, gnome switches to 1280x1024 [04:16] meoblast001: we don't support nvidia.com downloads. Instead, we provide nvidia drivers in the repositories. [04:16] i need some help configuring alsa with my optical out [04:16] lstarnes: ah [04:16] kdask: i686 version of what? [04:16] i have i686 FF [04:16] MrFuzzy razor card? [04:16] lstarnes: I wanted to report that http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/upgrading has the wrong title [04:17] ATI onboard [04:17] lstarnes: (and hence google headline) [04:17] kdask: I'm not sure what to do there [04:17] how do i install standard devel tools in jaunty? [04:17] thotheg, i'm assuming you went through this \/\/ [04:17] JohnFlux: report it in #ubuntu-website [04:17] Wyzard: Hi, any idea why jaunty detects a 15.4 screen as 15 and wont allow the x900 wide screen res???? [04:17] !restricted | thotheg [04:17] kdask: I use x86_64 firefox [04:17] thotheg: For multimedia issues, this page has useful information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats - See also https://help.ubuntu.com/9.04/musicvideophotos/C/video.html - But please use free formats if you can: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeFormats [04:17] hi ppl [04:17] JohnFlux: try filing a bug report at launchpad, I don't know where else to put it. [04:17] tritium, yeah... well... it's not really supporting them if they won't even install [04:17] meoblast001: they do [04:17] kevin009: doesn't ring a bell. In your place, I'd do a google search on the dvd model name and see if it's a known incompatibilty [04:17] python cant you just configure the xorg.conf [04:17] to your liking [04:17] ahh build-essential [04:17] MrFuzzy there a second set of the same options but number 2 in the sound? for my razor there was and the second one was optical [04:17] Wyzard, yes, it errors, Out of range, in the login screen, but then it goes back to notmal. [04:17] tritium, no they don't [04:17] python_user: The physical screen dimensions aren't really related to the pixel dimensions [04:17] ripps: ah there's a webmaster@ === _Glavata is now known as Glavata [04:18] lstarnes: apparently mozilla didnt detect my system as being 64 bit === test32767 is now known as jnykiel [04:18] meoblast001: no, really. You can also install them via apt-get, aptitude, or synaptic. [04:18] zhanx - yea i set the iec958 switches but there is still no light coming out from it [04:18] Wyzard: yeah but losing that .4" made ubuntu think my laptop doesnt do widescreen [04:18] Ah! I upgraded to 9.04 how do I turn on my ati card??? [04:18] meoblast001, i recomend reading n the forum, the answers are there [04:18] tritium, can't find them in synaptic === brEz is now known as brEz_ [04:18] kdask: by default packages for 64-bit firefox are installed if you use 64-bit ubuntu [04:18] shiloh7, already tried that hack.. didnt work [04:18] Configure the xorg file Python... [04:18] meoblast001: search for nvidia-glx [04:18] MrFuzzy check the bios also, i had to disable the onboard and it worked [04:19] shiloh7, worked the first time but i had to reinstall because my system pooped on me [04:19] meoblast001, hack????? [04:19] Templa[mobile]: if you have an rv600+ card you can use fglrx, if not, you have to use the opensource driver [04:19] vigo, i guess your not around [04:19] vocx: Modes "1280x1024" should stop it from creating a 1680x1200 framebuffer and trying to use 1680x1200 video mode, and instead create a 1280x1024 framebuffer and use 1280x1024 video mode [04:19] Wyzard, in this log, I enforce the Virtual line, but I don't specify Modes: http://paste.ubuntu.com/157653/ It works perfectly, but I can't pan, of course. [04:19] meoblast001, hacking is something you do in windows to get a program illegally [04:19] shiloh7, there's a hack you need to do to use nVidia drivers in Jaunty [04:19] meoblast001, we are better than that [04:19] zhanx: it is an onboard optical out - ALC1200 is the driver it uses, it just outputs to null [04:19] ripps: Radeon? [04:19] space_cadet, hacking is when you modify things to make them work [04:19] lstarnes: can i install 2 versions of ff? [04:19] meoblast001, ummm, no [04:19] space_cadet: you're thiking of cracking, not hacking [04:19] kdask: yes [04:19] meoblast001: no, there is no hack required [04:19] meh, back to intrepid for me [04:20] Templa[mobile]: yes, It is quite good these, about as good as the closed source [04:20] python_user: Did you look at this? [04:20] meoblast001, actually hacking is modifying things to make them do what they are not marketed to do [04:20] MrFuzzy thats as far as i can help man [04:20] does anyone know or where I can find out the vga parameters for menu.list for a 1600x900 20" monitor? tried hwinfo --framebuffer but it doesn't list my res [04:20] python_user: what's the issue?

[04:20] tritium, ok... well.. i found it on Ubuntu forums.. fixed the problem last time... not this time [04:20] Tristam: jaunty doesnt detect my widescreen therefore wont make the widescreen res available [04:20] tritium, can't find nvidia-glx* in there === justdave_ is now known as justdave === brEz_ is now known as brEz [04:20] hi all, I'm on Jaunty and I have an old sys card, is there a way to be able to play movies(so at least theyre watchable)? [04:20] Can someone check symnatic for me? Why is python 2.5 no longer available? [04:20] anybody with an ALC1200 chip with optical out working/ [04:20] tritium: jaunty doesnt detect my widescreen therefore wont make the widescreen res available [04:20] Templa[mobile]: I recommend adding 'Option "AccelDFS" "True"' to your xorg.conf, it really speeds up things like flash with exa [04:20] Buttons840: pythin2.5 should be in there [04:20] !info nvidia-glx-180 [04:20] python_user: back to 8.04 for me...

You're doing something wrong. [04:21] losher: lol, one version further back than me hahah [04:21] I can't see it :( [04:21] python_user: intel? Did you read the 9.04 release notes? [04:21] tritium, ok... nvm... it just cant search... i have to do it all manually [04:21] ripps: Any chance we get fglrx soon? Does ati have plans? [04:21] sprockets2000: yeah, and sometimes you cant, because it just doesn't work [04:21] how can I get rid of this indicator applet [04:21] Buttons840: close synaptic, open a terminal, and run aptitude show python2.5 [04:21] python, it will work if you go read a little bit [04:21] meoblast001: then, sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx-180 [04:21] fglrx is released every month [04:21] Python, go learn about xorg and configure your xorg.conf to your needs [04:21] tritium: I did, and they provided no real help in getting widescreen to work (intel) [04:21] the new one came out last week [04:21] i believe my symnatic filters are messed, up, let me look at it a bit, thank you [04:21] Templa[mobile]: AMD discontinued support for older cards, your stuck with opensource for r300-r500 or lower [04:22] Buttons840: if that works and you want to install it, use sudo aptitude install python2.5 [04:22] python_user: just pointing out that there are plenty of issues with the intel driver [04:22] Buttons840, check your software sources > download from and choose other. then click the choose best button [04:22] how can I get rid of this indicator applet? Ive disabled it and uninstalled it, but the messages just never stop. [04:22] python_user: IMHU every man ought to have a choice of which software anbd version of oftware he uses [04:22] ripps: I forget what model I have, I'll check [04:22] Buttons840, it seems i have had to do that a couple of times today even because some mirrors went down [04:22] vocx: I don't think it's possible to use a virtual size larger than your monitor's resolution when logged in without having it on the login screen too [04:23] meoblast001: you should have the "restricted" component enabled, which is where the nvidia-glx-* packages are located. [04:23] llama: Remove it from the panel? [04:23] I did [04:23] I even removed and ourged it [04:23] sprockets2000: I would but I have no idea how to create a modeline, only adive I found so far was to dual boot ti vista and vista do it for me (advice from ubuntu wiki) [04:23] it just keeps coming up [04:23] Wyzard, and in this other log, I enforce the Mode just like you say, I actually give "1280x1024" "1024x768" "800x600", http://paste.ubuntu.com/157655/ It also works like a charm. But no pan. [04:23] is there an alsa or sound irc? [04:23] tritium, now should i just restart now that i have it installed? [04:23] space_cadet: u tried the xmissiion,com mirror [04:23] llama: Then I don't know why. [04:23] vocx: and I think it's very strange that you actually *want* to use a panning virtual desktop; that's a legacy feature from years ago when xorg wasn't capable of changing resolutions properly [04:23] meoblast001: no need. You can switch to a virtual console, and sudo invoke-rc.d gdm restart [04:23] how on earth is a human being supposed to come up with a valid modeline?? [04:23] python_user, what is the editor you can use to pogrom GUI for python [04:23] Wyzard, "I don't think it's possible to use a virtual size larger than your monitor's resolution when logged in without having it on the login screen too" <--- apparently. === slaytani1 is now known as slaytanic [04:24] Anyone knows how to set the "vesa", "nv", "ati" Video drivers in the recovery section??? In previous versions the dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg did the work, but now it only asks for keyboard stuff... Even changing the xorg.conf for the one that worked before doesn't work... Anyone knows? [04:24] TopBunny88, nope, it usually chooses wisconsin or chicago for me [04:24] python_user: modelines are not typically required any more [04:24] MrFuzzy: apparently there is a #alsa. I've never used it [04:24] Geine: I use emacs [04:24] python_user, emacs is the text edit right? [04:24] sam0: what card do you have? [04:24] MrFuzzy: 9.04 is notorious for sound problems [04:24] tritium: correct, but in this case I need a modeline. If I didn't need one then this would of been working hours ago [04:24] is x-sane the only image scanner program i can use in ubuntu? my epson nx200 all in one printer gets recognized as a printer but not as a scanner in xsane, is there another alternative i can try? [04:25] losher, i'm glad i have a solid asus. [04:25] losher, everything worked oob [04:25] the sound hasn't worked in any distro yet [04:25] python_user: Video drivers don't give a hoot about "widescreen" vs. "not widescreen"... they ask the monitor what its preferred resolution is, and use that [04:25] I need help with Ubuntu settings, my mouse keeps moving in the center when a new window opens [04:25] ripps Ati [04:25] I made a backup of my home directory then when I did mv /home_backup home it disappeared. [04:25] i have asus and the optical out does not work [04:25] python_user, my question is how to do Graphic User Interface (GUI) to be used for python [04:25] python_user: afaik the only thing the monitor's physical dimensions are used for is calculating the monitor's DPI, which affects the size of your fonts [04:25] Wyzard: so how can I fix this? [04:25] how can i make jaunty let me use 1280x900? [04:25] Geine, try eric or idle, python is very picky about indentation, idle or eric auto indent and emacs is just to harsh for a novice [04:25] i read the wiki [04:25] didnt really help [04:26] Wyzard, "that's a legacy feature from" <---- yes, maybe a legacy feature. But for someone who has never seen it in use, it is kind of exiting. It's kinda like marveling with a wheel when we are all using hovering cars... or something. [04:26] python_user: What kind of monitor do you have? [04:26] I need help with Ubuntu settings, my mouse keeps moving in the center when a new window opens [04:26] sam0, your card should automatically use the radeon (ati) driver. What exactly is going wrong? [04:26] Where would my home directory have gone? [04:26] Wyzard: laptop lcd 15.4" [04:26] Python_user yah, it's the video card that determines the resolution capabilities. [04:26] python_user: and what type of GPU? [04:26] this has always worked right back to 7.04 [04:26] space_cadet: I have a Q6600/ECS intel mobo and it took me hours to get sound working on 9.04 [04:26] python_user, again... the lcd has no matter. [04:26] out of the box [04:26] tritium, doesnt work [04:27] I need help with Ubuntu settings, my mouse keeps moving in the center when a new window opens [04:27] space_cadet: the video card has upper limits on what resolutions it's capable of outputting, but the driver uses EDID data from the monitor to decide what video mode to make the video card actually output [04:27] Is there anyways to start something in the terminal and then close the terminal without killing the process? I like that new feature, but sometimes I want to override it. [04:27] is there a spanish speaking channel for ubuntu? [04:27] meoblast001: what does it do, then? [04:27] !es > billybigrigger [04:27] billybigrigger, please see my private message [04:27] python_user, you could have a 13" and get 1900 x 1200 [04:27] How can I get wvidal to start automatically when the system starts? [04:27] intel gm965 [04:27] tritium: first it tells me display 0 is already being used and i'll have to use display 1 [04:27] how can I get rid of this indicator applet? Ive disabled it and uninstalled it, but the messages just never stop. Ive restarted and removed it from startup applications also. [04:27] tritium: then it tells me that i'll have to use low graphics mode [04:27] ripps i downloaded the ATI driver with envy-ng, and at the restart it broke... Using dpkg-reconfigure did the work, but now i can't go back [04:27] meoblast001: Hey. [04:27] Buttons840: use & at the end of the command or hit xrtl-z and then type bg [04:27] how can I figure out what vga mode to use for adding a usplash on a widescreen monitor? [04:27] meoblast001: probably due to your installation of non-ubuntu-packaged drivers. [04:28] evilGUI: i hate nVidia [04:28] Found it, it got moved to ./root [04:28] meoblast001: Why? [04:28] \ [04:28] evilGUI: cuz i do [04:28] meoblast001: rebooting is rarely required, but if you choose to, that is fine [04:28] Buttons840, hm a new feature? nohup command & [04:28] screw it, I'll go compile a kernel with an older xorg and intel driver versions [04:28] meoblast001, i love nvidia [04:28] I need help with Ubuntu settings, my mouse keeps moving in the center when a new window opens [04:28] sam0, envy-ng isn't supported for jaunty. What model card do you have, AMD discontinued support for older cards [04:28] space_cadet: Please try the xmission mirror here is the link for my sources.list > http://paste.ubuntu.com/157659/ [04:28] tritium: i think i'm going to check if it's too late to return my card and get an ATI [04:28] tritium, roger, thanks [04:28] make the thing quicker and purge those popups (notifications) all in one sweep [04:28] meoblast001: ok [04:29] meoblast001: In Jaunty ATI users have had worse issues. [04:29] guys, what is the name of the online game that is a virtual world? [04:29] meoblast001: which card do you have? [04:29] evilGUI: I have rv350 ati card, and my Jaunty experience has been great [04:29] tritium: 9600GSO [04:29] ripps ati radeon Xpress 200, pretty old [04:29] danes_: world of warcaft? second life? [04:29] meoblast001: ah, extremely new [04:29] danes_: second life? [04:29] yeah second life [04:29] is anyone else experiencing very long waits for installing packages? [04:29] tritium: it worked before this 9.04 bullspit [04:29] does anyone know how to disable a second display setup for multihead using randr? [04:29] sam0: then your stuck with the opensource radeon drivers. [04:29] ripps: Same here with my 8600GT. [04:30] how can I get rid of this indicator applet? Ive disabled it and uninstalled it, but the messages just never stop. Ive restarted and removed it from startup applications also. [04:30] anyone knows how can I install it in ubuntu? [04:30] space_cadet: I tried using the guide on the link you posted and it was helpful and appears to have worked. However after remounting the partition it still appears as "78.6 GB Media" [04:30] where to put iwconfig vlan0 power on so it is automaticaly set when network i loaded? [04:30] Personally, the UI "Hardware Drivers" really screwed me over with my ATI card. I downloaded the 9.4 Catalyst from ATI website, and did an automated install (real easy), and things are working much better now. [04:30] Wyzard, what I'm going to do, is increase the virtual size just a little so the panning is not excessive, and so the login textbox is not "out of bounds". I will only stretch it horizontally. Also I think it is useful for people like me, who still use a 5:4 ratio monitor, instead of the now more common 16:9. The gnome-panels tend to get full of things, so this will give it, a little more room. [04:30] manuel__: yes, it's slow because lots of people are downloading packages in order to upgrade [04:30] danes_: they provide a linux .tar.gz [04:30] ok [04:30] ahhh ok [04:30] I just got an old IBM thinkpad. It has no hard drive, so I was planning on using my usb drive with ubuntu 8.1 on it with ssh to my desktop. However, I cannot boot from my usb device. I have tried using the 'boot from usb' cd from some pendrive website, but it does not work. I was wondering if anyone knew how to boot a usb device with ubuntu 8.1 on it with super grub disk, or offer any other solution to my problem. Thank you. [04:30] I have issues with the packages. I'm trying to purge mobloquer but I face some kind of locked-up issues in the terminal. What can I do to resolve this? [04:30] Steffy, check down the page just before the first section it tells about your fstab file [04:30] hi all [04:30] thanks ripps I guess I'll have to install from 0 again [04:30] I need help with Ubuntu settings, my mouse keeps moving in the center when a new window opens [04:30] I just installed jaunty and I have no sound (I had sound on Hardy Heron) [04:30] Steffy, you are going to have to rename the mount point in fstab [04:30] how can I get rid of this indicator applet? Ive disabled it and uninstalled it, but the messages just never stop. Ive restarted and removed it from startup applications also.\ [04:30] Hey, a few hours after the upgrade to Jaunty, my ability to sudo broke. Now whenever I try to run anything with sudo, it gives me "segmentation fault". [04:30] Any ideas what I should be checking? [04:31] Newer ATI cards can, and probably should, use the Catalyst drivers, everyone else, just use the opensource radeon, they work great with the older models anyway. [04:31] ripps: Is radeon mobility x1300 discontinued? [04:31] where to put iwconfig vlan0 power on so it is automaticaly set when network is* loaded? [04:31] ripps, radeonhd is shaping up real nicely too [04:31] Would anyone happen to have any suggestions for sudo giving seg fault? [04:31] meoblast001: Nvidia will fix it at some point, just use 8.10 for a while with a home directory on another partition. [04:31] Templa[mobile]: I believe that's an r500, so yes. [04:31] arrgh... i just tried to enter commands here in the xchat window [04:31] could somebody help me, i tried to active the propietary drivers for my ati card and now the xorg.conf is hosed, i cant load linux [04:31] Damn [04:31] space_cadet: My other partition that is named is identical to the unamed parition in my /etc/fstab [04:32] evilGUI: :( [04:32] usser: Yeah, but most of the good stuff it does gets into the radeon, anyway. [04:32] In 8.10 the sound has stopped. How do I get it to work again? [04:32] Wyzard, talking about upgrading, I finished after 30 something hours... some packages were unaccessible and the downloading failed twice... I had to wake up around 3:00 am to continue downloading the packages... [04:32] evilGUI: can i still get the new KDenLive? [04:32] lrojas: sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg [04:32] tried that, still hosed [04:32] meoblast001: Dunno. [04:32] lrojas: well how did you try to load the ati driver? [04:32] how can I only allow my IP adress to connect to ssh on my server? [04:32] Oh yeah... When I boot from the live cd, I can see my usb disk, so the usb is working. [04:33] I need to do it ASAP because it is being brute-forced as we speak [04:33] Hello, I'm trying to get apt-cacher working on my 9.04 server but im getting errors in the log when I try to use it to update via apt http://dpaste.com/37616/ any ideas? [04:33] moparisthebest: well you could do it key based and have just you having hte key. [04:33] !ssh | moparisthebest [04:33] moparisthebest: SSH is the Secure SHell protocol. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SSHHowto for usage. Putty is a nice SSH client for Windows; it can be found at http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/ [04:33] evilGUI: i'm just going to play with drivers [04:33] ubuntu 9.02, just installed, a windoww pops up, there are propietary hardware drivers for your machine... , in the middle of it, it froze... [04:33] moparisthebest: change the port in sshd_config [04:34] In 8.10 the sound has stopped. How do I get it to work again? I have removed the pulse-audio and am using alsa. [04:34] moparisthebest: or look into iptables :) [04:34] is there a way to only allow my IP (which is dynamic, but mapped to a DNS name) to log into the server? [04:34] Wyzard, Bear with me, I still have a few questions. Is there a way to get the old "dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg" functionality directly. Currently, it only writes a plain xorg.conf, but it says that now everything is read from "databases", do you know anything about it? [04:34] neil_d, you need pulse or OSS for system sounds to work [04:34] neil_d: What's your Audio hardware? [04:34] Is there any way to just download all the packages for the upgrade without running the upgrader utility? and then run the utility later and have it do the upgrade? [04:34] lrojas: and you ahve an ati card? [04:34] dgrant: What? [04:34] RADEON 4850 [04:35] hey i cant get jaunty to play any movies with totem anyone else have this problem [04:35] ripps: What about the radeon xpress 1200? [04:35] moparisthebest: i don't know of any quick and easy way to do that [04:35] The error I get when I run the 'boot from usb cd' is an I/O error. I have super grub disk. Anybody know how to boot a usb ubuntu system from super grub disk? [04:35] vocx: video stuff is mostly autodetected by xorg (unless you want to override it, as you're doing) and input configuration comes from HAL now [04:35] lrojas: can you get to a command prompt? === edgex-[a] is now known as edgex [04:35] NOD62: [SiS] AC'97 Sound Controller [04:35] r463: well I don't want to do the upgrade just yet, because I'm using my computer right now, but I'd like to start the long download process === z00m|away is now known as z00m [04:35] Templa[mobile]: I pretty sure that's a discontinued as well, but you should google and find what chipset it uses. [04:35] yes [04:35] moparisthebest: that's why i suggest just changing the port, as a changed port is less likely to be scanned [04:35] neil_d: So it's only the system sounds that don't work? [04:35] Is there anything wrong with putting the netbook remix on my laptop?? [04:36] ripps: Well my friend is using it with no problem [04:36] what about hosts.deny and hosts.allow? [04:36] Wyzard, but there is no way to edit exactly what goes in xorg, or edit what hal sends to it? [04:36] NOD62: no sounds work. [04:36] How can I install .py file? [04:36] Would anyone know anything about sudo giving seg faults? [04:36] well, a command prompt when i use the .restore kernel [04:36] neil_d: Ohh, okay.. One minute. [04:36] hey i cant get jaunty to play any movies with totem anyone else have this problem [04:36] lrojas: sudo apt-get --reinstall xorg-driver-fglrx [04:36] vocx: You can always customize xorg.conf by hand, as you're doing now [04:36] please, anyone that installed 9.04 on a notebook with intel graphics.. is your system slow? [04:36] Templa[mobile]: He's probably using the Opensource drivers, they work great with the discontinued models these days. [04:36] !codec > SeViLLa [04:36] Hello, I'm trying to get apt-cacher working on my 9.04 server but im getting errors in the log when I try to use it to update via apt http://dpaste.com/37616/ any ideas? [04:36] SeViLLa, please see my private message [04:36] ok, i will try that and see what happens :s [04:36] sevilla, i have no problems what so ever..maybe just get vlc? [04:36] vocx: and input devices can be configured by writing .fdi files that set the HAL properties you want [04:36] hi again [04:36] I get the I/o errors right after the uniform cd-rom driver Revision: 3.20 pops up. [04:36] Wyzard, but many things are also ignored, I believe. [04:36] ripps: No, the catalyst [04:36] NOD62: using the Sound Preferences to test. [04:36] RxDx: http://www.ubuntugeek.com/intel-graphics-performance-guide-for-ubuntu-904-jaunty-users.html [04:37] sadly i have to reboot aslinux is in the other partition [04:37] neil_d: welcome to ubuntu upgrade sound hell.

[04:37] ripps: 9.4 version === GodfatherofEire1 is now known as GodfatherofEire [04:37] ripps, ill see.. thanks [04:37] vocx: It's also possible to disable the HAL-based input configuration and use xorg.conf for those things instead, though I don't recommend that [04:37] neil_d: welcome to ubuntu upgrade sound hell. You might start here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=789578 but you'll find there's no shortage of pages on broken sound after an upgrade if you google [04:37] histo: which media? the cd? [04:37] Templa[mobile]: Then it's either a supported chipset, or he's not using ubuntu [04:37] lrojas: well reboot and give that a try that should reinstall whatever the restricted manager was doing. [04:37] Joeseph: yes [04:37] Is there anything wrong with installing the netbook remix on my laptop?? [04:37] neil_d: run "alsamixer" in terminal and search for any components displaying "MM" -> they are muted. Just click the key "m" on them, and they will be unmuted.

[04:38] TopBunny88 never if you choose not too [04:38] RxDx: are you sure, I'm getting it fine here: http://www.ubuntugeek.com/intel-graphics-performance-guide-for-ubuntu-904-jaunty-users.html [04:38] Joeseph: right on the installation cd menu is a check media option [04:38] neil_d: I had the same problem...

[04:38] space_cadet: I'm wondering if I need to reboot? blkid shows the Label has been set [04:38] doleyb, awesome thanks man...just wanted a simple interface, better battery performance [04:38] Wyzard, well, I guess I can't mess with HAL directly then... [04:39] Steffy, maybe... worth a try [04:39] bmx2962: you can put the py file anyplace you want, just click it or type ./file.py or whatever [04:39] neil_d: The solution I gave you is a common fix for that sound card.

[04:41] meoblast001: ? [04:41] evilGUI: i'm switching to Fedora [04:41] Wyzard, okay, one last question. Is it possible to start different X sessions in a straight manner? I believe, that init scripts, or however most Linux distros boot up, call some command such as X:0 that start the actual graphical desktop. So is there a way to have multiple of these, controlled by one user, like X:1, X:2, etc. [04:41] vocx: yes, startx -- :1 [04:41] TBotNik: did you try k3b? [04:42] vocx: what Wyzard said, but you need a pretty powerful systme to not get any slowdowns [04:42] ripps, Wyzard, simple that like? No catch? [04:43] meoblast001: Lets talk on your IRC server. [04:43] evilGUI: ok [04:43] I want to be able to access my system from the internet with SSH. That's easy to setup. Doing the port forwarding in the router is also easy. What I want to know is, is there software for Linux that can do the port forwarding automatically via the upnp in the router? [04:43] zhanx: How do i force an dist-upgrade in package manager [04:43] doleyb: No do not even have a good list of candidates. Had downloaded a product called "Rescue Disk" at one time, but can not seem to find it now. Found one copy, but was Win only and version I had was Linux.

I have latest v8 installed atm. Is Netbook Remix mostly targeted at simple user or would it be beneficial for me to switch? [04:44] Naywrangler: what model card do you have? [04:44] ok [04:44] billybigrigger, check the model on the internetz. Check ubuntuforums for clues. [04:45] TopBunny88 sudo apt-get dist-upgrade [04:45] I have amd64, Radeon HD 3870 x2 in crossfire [04:45] X.org is giving me errors [04:45] No device found [04:45] Detected both cards [04:45] Says no device [04:45] Naywrangler: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.

[04:46] So any advice on netbook vs. desktop as far as web dev concerned would be appreciated. [04:46] does anyone remember the ATI config command? Will try toying around in the command line [04:46] Naywrangler: if have an older model card, AMD might have discontinued support with it's closed source driver [04:46] hey everyone I just downloaded and burnt a copy of jaunty and am just how do I start the upgrade and get it to use the cdrom instead of the internet [04:46] hakunin: only get a netbook if you're going to use it to browse & travel. For web development, you need a full-sized screen and keyboard. [04:47] Z3ro3X: why would you need this? As you say, it's easy, and it's a one-time setup since ssh doesn't change ports... [04:47] hakunin: Beyond that, see !best [04:47] it's a relatively new card [04:47] !x.oy [04:47] Sorry, I don't know anything about x.oy [04:47] ryanprior unless you love vi and lynx!

[04:48] doleyb: OK looking in SPM! [04:48] heh [04:48] that will do [04:49] hakunin, some people get all excited about netbooks, because they are small and everything. Then they don't know how to accomplish a single thing. The novelty wears off. [04:49] hey guys how do i save and close file in crontab editor? [04:49] That's how you know the IRC team knows its stuff. Three simultaneous accurate answers. [04:49] ryanprior: ok, i'm somewhat used to it, i have macbook pro for normal dev, but my aspire's battery is 9hrs, so i switch when former runs out. speaking of "best" - afai understand there's no difference except better driver support and adopted interface. meaning that i should rather go with netbook. is my reasoning working? [04:49] vocx: ^^ [04:49] hello [04:49] i'm talking about UNR vs. desktop ed. [04:49] What's the best size for home and root [04:50] doleyb: Soo K3b requires KDE? I'm on Gnome, not really ready to switch, unless there is good reason. Do not want all the install issues. [04:50] should they be the same size? [04:50] tacosarecool: how big is the drive? [04:50] hakunin what netbook [04:50] losher, Because their laptops they might often change routers. I need them to use upnp to forward SSH so I can can connect to them when ever they need my help. [04:50] yaris1234567891: I suppose crontab editor is probably vi, so save with !wq [04:50] hakunin: Oh, I thought you were asking which hardware to invest in. For web development, I would tend to think that you want the desktop edition, but netbook remix might work. [04:50] zhanx: aspire one, ssd, 512mb, atom [04:50] I mean they're not their...

[04:56] Templa[mobile]: if fglrx is givin you issues, try the radeonhd drivers, they might have some better support. [04:56] dselect? [04:56] paradisaeidae software sources [04:56] ripps: 3d support? [04:56] hi. I guest that many of you, like me, install a fresh copy of 9.04 today. one question : in the System menu, where is the "Quit" ?? [04:56] ripps: Thats a must for me [04:56] Templa[mobile]: doubtful, slow at best, but compiz should work fine [04:57] ryanprior: zhanx: gonna play live usb, see for myself... thanks for pointers [04:57] ryanprior: http://rafb.net/p/mz9Egk53.html [04:57] formolQC: To shut down the system or log off, use the applet in the top-right corner of the top panel which has your name on it. When you click that applet, it will give you a useful menu. [04:57] ripps: Not an option, I do 3d graphic stuff [04:57] is there any other way to get the cube affect [04:57] I'll stick with 8.10 [04:58] hola [04:58] hey! [04:58] Templa[mobile]: whatever works for you [04:58] if anyone can help me i'd appreciate it [04:58] !ask | devslash [04:58] devslash: 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. :-) [04:58] zhanx: software sources? [04:59] ripps: i guess you didnt see the link i posted with the error [04:59] Templa[mobile]: the same conclusion many of us have come to... [04:59] ryanprior : yeah, I know it's there, but it's the kind of thing I usually delete from the desktop toolbar [04:59] ripps: Well, thanks for helping [04:59] Templa[mobile]: Your welcome [04:59] devslash: don't post a link with your problem, people aren't likely to stop to read it. [04:59] ripps i didnt [04:59] losher: Keep your fingers crossed and your macros spamming [05:00] ripps i pasted the error message i am geting [05:00] hey what do i type in the terminal to find out what my hardware is?? [05:00] paradisaeidae sudo vi /etc/apt/sources.list comment out the ones you dont want [05:00] lspci [05:00] lsusb [05:00] millertimek1a2m3: you can find that out on /proc [05:00] millertimek1a2m3: lshw will give you some info, lspci will give some more. [05:00] millertimek1a2m3: what do u want to find out [05:01] can any one go to a new chat window and guide me thru geting the cube affect? [05:01] devslash: just from a glance, it appears the modules don't support xserver 1.6 yet [05:01] I installed ubuntu9.04 yesterday, but ubuntu often disconnected with internet. [05:01] ripps: i see... so im f'ed for now... [05:01] formolQC: We've moved to one standardized place for logging out and shutting down the computer, so you'll have to add the buttons to the system menu manually if you still want the old behaviour.; [05:01] Who could help me? [05:02] home: Anyone can help, if you ask bigger questions. [05:02] devslash: file a bug with the upstream developer, or see if they have a newer version available. [05:02] home, you mean wireless or wired? [05:02] whats upstream ? [05:02] ryanprior : oh, it's doable this way, like adding a link in the menu, thanks a lot [05:02] home: was this while you were trying to download stuff from the ubuntu servers? [05:02] ripps the problem has to be fixed by parallels ? [05:02] !upstream | devslash [05:02] Sorry, I don't know anything about upstream [05:02] can any one go to a new chat window and guide me thru geting the cube affect? [05:02] see ? [05:02] can any one go to a new chat window and guide me thru geting the cube affect? [05:03] ubottu doesn't know what it is either [05:03] Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) [05:03] does anyone know how to disable a second display setup for multihead? [05:03] devslash: parallels is a virtual environment, correct? Try out virtualbox or vmware until they update their software. [05:03] unplug it [05:03] nah its not that important [05:03] can any one go to a new chat window and guide me thru geting the cube affect? [05:03] can any one go to a new chat window and guide me thru geting the cube affect? [05:03] can any one go to a new chat window and guide me thru geting the cube affect? [05:03] mstone: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. [05:03] stryd_one, yes ... you can click the system, preferences, resolution and click it off [05:04] zhanx, then it stays active so windows can still open on the now invisible display [05:04] ripps: unless, does virtual box support 3d emulation? [05:04] can any one go to a new chat window and guide me thru geting the cube affect? [05:04] devslash, 3d yes [05:04] latest version is quite good... devslash [05:04] wow so i can use compiz fusion! [05:04] !ccsm > mstone [05:04] can any one go to a new chat window and guide me thru geting the cube affect? [05:04] mstone, please see my private message [05:04] stryd_one disable it in the bios [05:04] !patience | mstone [05:04] devslash: upstream is term for the the people that develop the actual software ubuntu uses, Ubuntu doesn't write most of the software they take it from debian, and debian takes it from upstream [05:04] can google follow ? [05:04] mstone: The people here are volunteers, your attitude should reflect that. Answers are not always available. See http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines [05:04] nomasteryoda, thanks but I only see one display in that app [05:04] errum... i would not know if it is that good.. [05:04] devslash: Support isn't 100% yet -- still experimental. [05:04] home: you'll need to ask a question with more detail. (And, what is your native language?) [05:05] zhanx, i want to do it while the box is running [05:05] ryanprior : in "edit menus", there is no option to make the Quit re-appear, I can add new item, but what is the command line for it [05:05] stryd_one, you wanted more than one... ah [05:05] mstone: Did you try the suggestion that I gave? [05:05] stryd_one, what video card? [05:05] If terminal gives you a seg fault running sudo and the error logs have an error in libgtk-x11-2.0.so.0.1600.1, what can you do? [05:05] zhanx, the idea is, that the secondary display is my TV, and when i am done with watching movies, i'd like to turn off the TV and stay on the primary display (VGA monitor) [05:05] stryd_one your hot key on the keyboard dont shutoff the second monitor? === paradisaeidae_ is now known as paradisaeidae [05:06] can any one go to a new chat window and guide me thru geting the cube affect? [05:06] it's a SiS650 card, currently using mergedFB to do the multiheading [05:06] mstone: Just a friendly tip - the more demanding or annoying you become means less people who are likely to want to help you [05:06] formolQC: I may have misled you: it looks like those aren't normal menu shortcuts after all. Let me take a look at something. [05:06] What is LVM? in partitioning [05:06] my bash history isnt saving, any ideas why? [05:07] !lvm [05:07] raid is Tips and tricks for RAID and LVM can be found on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/SoftwareRAID wto and http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/LVM-HOWTO - For software RAID, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FakeRaidHowto [05:07] inasmu: thanks :) [05:07] h [05:07] Crash1hd: LVM is "Logical volume Management." Its where you can set up multiple virtual partitions which span actual drives, and other complicated stuff like that [05:08] Crash1hd: it allows (among other things) for you to use multiple drives as a single one, and also to grow/shrink partitions on the fly. You can read more about it (including pictures) here: http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/linux/library/l-lvm/ [05:08] zhanx, I'm not sure which hotkey you mean? [05:08] ok gonna try ubuntu 9.04 on virtualbox === ensarman is now known as afernandez [05:08] ryanprior: where are you located [05:08] ryanprior : thank you (i will be around, searching on google for this....) [05:08] Crash1hd: You don't need to compile it though. Just use that article as an explanation of what it is. [05:08] where can I go to connect to a faster server to update to 9.04? my dl speed is sucking right now and I know it can go faster than what its doing...tried to look in software sources and thought I did all I could... [05:08] formolQC: I figured out what you need to do. [05:09] !slow | jimisrvrox [05:09] jimisrvrox: The Ubuntu repositories and ISO mirrors are currently under heavy load due to the release of the latest edition. Please consider using !torrents to download ISO images, and be patient with APT updates. [05:09] can i vnc from my winxp to my ubuntu server? [05:09] Flannel: sounds cool (Just wondering what happens when a drive dies?) does it kill everything? or just what was located on that drive? [05:09] :) [05:09] hello [05:09] !vnc | tjz [05:09] tjz: VNC is a protocol for remote desktop. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VNCOverSSH describes how to use it securely. It works best over fast connections, otherwise look at !FreeNX [05:09] ryanprior: where are you located? [05:10] formolQC: Launch gconf-editor, navigate to apps/panel/global, and un-check the boxes labeled "disable_lock_screen" and "disable_log_out". [05:10] Crash1hd: notfun things. Technically, it only kills stuff on that drive. But that might be complicated. You can also remove/add drives later, etc. [05:10] insasmu , ThxQQ [05:10] the first time I tried to upgrade from 8.10 to 9.04, it downloaded some packages then asked me to reboot, then nothing [05:10] Crash1hd: so, if you knew a drive was dying, you could replace it without much hassle (or if you want to add another one later, or whatever) [05:11] I had to launch update manager and click on the update button again [05:11] Flannel: How would you know what was on what drive? [05:11] !freeNX [05:11] FreeNX is advanced remote desktop technology. For more information and install instructions, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeNX [05:11] why? was this normal? [05:11] !torrents [05:11] Jaunty can be torrented from http://hr.releases.ubuntu.com/9.04/ubuntu-9.04-desktop-i386.iso.torrent or http://se.releases.ubuntu.com/9.04/ubuntu-9.04-server-amd64.iso.torrent depending on your archieecture. Torrents for other Ubuntu flavours can be found at: http://it.releases.ubuntu.com/ (CD) or http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/releases (DVD). [05:11] Crash1hd: You don't. Well, you can figure it out, but you've abstracted away the physical drives. [05:12] Flannel: So to give the feeling of having one big drive basically instead of subdeviding the drives [05:12] ryanprior : thank for helping me, I appreciate, but those option seems to be un-check by default [05:12] Flannel: and having things like movies on one drive and music on another [05:12] I have met a Chinese user. Is there a Chinese support channel? [05:12] formolQC: Try re-checking them then, perhaps? Or re-checking and un-checking? [05:13] Crash1hd: You merge all your hardware together, and then can do whatever you want with it (most people make a few smaller partitions) [05:13] !cn|losher [05:13] losher: For Ubuntu help in Chinese 您可以访问中文频道： #ubuntu-cn 或者 #ubuntu-tw 或者 #ubuntu-hk [05:13] Flannel: alright thanks :) [05:13] question for any experts with a curious mind... i updated 8.10 to 9.04 today; and suddenly: my login username (top right) changes to 'root' whenever i run firefox now, and my home directory and everything else changes to 'root. Can't shutdown or launch terminal when this happens. help!!! [05:13] ryanprior : i tryed, it didn't work [05:13] Crash1hd: If I have two 100GB drives, I merge them into 1 "200GB" drive, and then if I want, I can have a 150GB partition, and a 50GB partition. [05:13] * edgex AmaroX: NowPlaying: Sex Pistols - Anarchy In The UK - [KORAX OMFG DDOS LOL] [17:29/] [48] [05:13] anyone know how ubuntu runs on the eee pc 1000he? [05:13] anyone useing ubuntu netbook remix, is it possible to take this gui off [05:13] back to normal [05:13] edgex: Please turn that off. [05:13] I have 9.04 and two ATI Radeon HD 3870 cards in Crossfire. The Restricted proprietary driver was downloaded and installed. Upon reboot, X resfused to start up and I was left at the CLI login screen. I have pasted the X.org config at http://paste.ubuntu.com/157675/ [05:13] formolQC: That is a bug, then, and we should fix it. Do you know how to submit a bug report? [05:13] inasmu: thank you [05:14] jerbear: one sec [05:14] the first time I tried to upgrade from 8.10 to 9.04, it downloaded some packages then asked me to reboot, then nothing [05:14] I had to launch update manager and click on the update button again [05:14] Flannel; Ugh, Script gone wrong..my mistake [05:14] correction, not X.org config, but the X.org log [05:14] why? [05:14] sprockets2000: yeah it's possible... [05:14] no screens found apparently [05:14] do I have to actually download the DE [05:14] and edit .xinitrc? [05:14] Cutter: Likely because you weren't up to date with 8.10 [05:14] jerbear: read https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupport/Machines/Netbooks [05:14] ryanprior : yeah, i've an account, i'll do it now, (thank you for your time) [05:15] ziroday: thanks [05:15] I have 9.04 on a eeepc 1000H [05:15] works ok [05:15] formolQC: Thank you for being brave and testing the new release. :-) [05:15] sprockets2000: you can probably just install ubuntu-desktop [05:15] The wireless is the only thing that gave me trouble, although I manually inserted the driver before the officail release and updated [05:16] I think the official release fixed that issue [05:16] hi all [05:16] dunno about the webcam though. I never bothered with it [05:16] how much diskspace do we need to install ubuntu? [05:16] Flannel: I have 9.04 on an iso already but I have 8.10 installed can I just burn it to a cd and upgrade w/o losing everything? [05:16] nathan_: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupport/Machines/Netbooks [05:16] dumb question [05:16] i think < 200mb ? [05:17] tjz: at least 2 GB, iirc [05:17] tjz: No, more like 2-3 GB. [05:17] can someone please explain to me, how the new xorg works? if the xorg.conf is no longer relevant, where do i specify my display drivers?\ [05:17] been running 8.10, 8.04 for a year, no troubles at all. [05:17] i am running on : [05:17] what about the ubuntu we have on our vps? why they are 200-300mb ?

I'm trying to remove/purge a package -- Mobloquer -- so I can reinstall it again. However, it locked up in the terminal for too long enough to know that there are something wrong. What can I do to resolve this situation? Please do advise. :) [05:17] lrojas: it will autmatically determine them, but you can still use xorg.conf if you want. It will just override the automatic detection. [05:18] updated to 9.04 today and firefox quit working... no history, no home pages (even though they were all listed in preferences) [05:18] tjz: that is likely the jeos edition of ubuntu [05:18] ubuntu-9.04-alternate-i386 I just burned this CD, but I don't get an upgrade option. It only says install [05:18] tried safe mode and everything else. [05:18] ripps: the issue is that when i try to install teh propietary drivers it sugest, activating xserv-drivers-fglrx, it renders the machine unusable [05:18] tjz: If you are looking for a light distro <200mb, you might try Puppy Linux or Damn Small Linux. There used to be a project called µbuntu which was a tiny ubuntu-based distroy, but I don't know whether they have updated lately. [05:19] Flannel: Does setting up a system using lvm slow it down a bit? [05:19] Anyone else having issues with the ATI propritary driver? [05:19] nathan: i am going nuts [05:19] also lost my lower panel contents (just a blank panel now) [05:19] lrojas: same here [05:19] in 9.04 I have 2 monitor with unmirrored mode , my taskbar moved to monitor number 2 , how can I move it to monitor number1? [05:19] Crash1hd: It's negligible, but technically yes, it is "slower" [05:19] lrojas: what card do you have, some older chipsets have been discontinued [05:19] Man's 1 question [05:19] does jaunty support installing to an encrypted partition? [05:19] ended up wiping firefox thru synaptic, [05:19] jerbear: yes [05:19] i have an ATI RADEON 4850 [05:19] what's the difference between the cd image (kubuntu) and the DVD image?

[05:20] Flannel: thanks [05:20] !who | lrojas [05:20] lrojas: As you can see, this is a large channel. If you're speaking to someone in particular, please put their nickname in what you say (use !tab), or else messages get lost and it becomes confusing :) [05:20] reinstalled firefox from synaptic, [05:20] taking it from 600+ mb to 4+ GB? Jeeze...that's a lot of translations [05:20] lstarnes, I did, but there is no upgrade option. Only "Install Ubuntu" [05:20] snurfle: sounds like your profile got borked, does doing mv ~/.mozilla/firefox/.default/ /home/nick/.mozilla/firefox/.default.old make firefox respect your preferences again? [05:20] lrojas: That should work with fgrlx... I don't know check some of the bug reports and see if someone else has your problem. [05:20] ripps: sorry\ [05:20] capture screen and translete this video to site [05:21] blbrown: did you start the alternate cd, or did you mount its iso?

[05:27] eclipse[ume], you can change settings in mplayer config file to do that. Google for it [05:27] doleyb: that does not work, it wont strech to the screen. [05:27] eclipse[ume]: do mplayer -fs [05:27] have to reboot the machine... just a sec... [05:27] lrojas: Hey I solved my problem [05:27] fearthenofear: do you have effects enabled?

[05:28] lrojas: amd release the latest version of catalyst 9.4 before any other ditro got their hands on it. The issue isn't jaunty but the drivers [05:28] if I run it window'd then fullscreen the window it will "full screen" [05:28] for soemreason, ubuntu isn't configuring Xorg.conf properly [05:28] with the ATI driver [05:28] jerbear: yeah, thats how I'd recommend doing it, then you can put your swap and root/home in that same LVM. This will let you hibernate AND have an encrypted swap [05:28] cutter: I know which one you're talking about, but I forgot the name and now I can't find it in 9.04 anymore. [05:29] lrojas: ^ amd gave ubuntu... [05:29] Hi everyone, has anyone had any experience with twinview monitors with nvidia and xorg.conf? Need a helping hand [05:29] hey guys is there a way to brinig ubuntu to its barebone system' [05:29] rats... 9.04 also boots up with numlock turned off! [05:29] Danish989: sure. Please pastebin the output of compiz --replace, lspci | grep VGA and /var/log/Xorg.0.log [05:29] jerbear: just make sure you have a small /boot partition outside of the encryption [05:29] Cutter: I don't have a clue...it was working fine and then I installed something off add or remove programs to make it be able to do 3d and then i wasn't able to do anything after that. [05:29] Tomas_: yes, ubuntu-minimal [05:29] inasmu: how do i set that up? [05:29] ziroday: terminal won't start either. When I try starting it from the menu, a window pops up that says "starting terminal" but then it just disappears. [05:29] Danish989: do you see one called "Pulsar" in the list? [05:29] is there a way to get that with the ubuntu's i already have [05:29] histo xargs is awesome [05:29] there's too many screensavers in Ubuntu [05:29] hello [05:30] Danish989: ah, press alt+F2 and type in gnome-terminal [05:30] i have 8.04, 8.10 and downloading 9.04 [05:30] jerbear: you mean how to set up the /boot outside the encryption or how to set up the LVM? [05:30] the list is huge [05:30] cutter: yeah, I see pulsar, but that's not the one is it? aren't you talking about the slopy colorful lines swirling around on the screen? [05:30] Danish989: yes [05:30] ziroday: got it =) thanks, can you please tell me the command again [05:30] cutter: IT's not on the list anymore, I think they removed it from 9.04 [05:30] still, the bugzilla thing seems to be sugesting a 9.5 driver should arrive by april ( *confused* ), here is a coule of links to the bug reports :http://ati.cchtml.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1505 / http://ati.cchtml.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1512 [05:30] Danish989: sure.

[05:30] does anyone here have an epson nx200 printer/scanner? i've been trying for hours to get the scanner working, printing works fine, ubuntu detected it right away and installed the driver, test page printed fine, but xsane can't find the scanner [05:30] inasmu: in particular, the /boot partition. and anything else i need to know to set it up [05:30] ziroday... created a new profile in ff. [05:30] Danish989: how does Pulsar look like on your comp? swirling 2D rectangles? [05:30] whats the difference between ubuntu-desktop iso and the mid-lpa img (for netbooks) not netboom remix [05:30] grodius: ask in #ubuntu-offtopic [05:30] is there a way I can manually set my monitor to a better refresh rate> [05:31] snurfle: okay, can you use that? [05:31] its killing my eyes [05:31] grodius: Theyre both different frontends to apt. Aptitude has a built in TUI type GUI thing. [05:31] its at 60hz [05:31] means [05:31] seems to be ok... what the heck?!?!?! [05:31] ziroday: lpsci | grep VGA didnt do anything [05:31] Weems: yes, /etc/X11/xorg.conf [05:31] please [05:31] Danish989: err just pastebin lspci then [05:31] ok [05:31] answer [05:31] jerbear: before you make the encrypted parition, make a small (150M should be fine) partition for boot. Set it's mount point at /boot. Then when you create the encrypted partition, you can say "use the rest of the space" [05:31] lrojas: The content of my Xorg.log tells me that ubuntu is using the driver from March [05:31] ziroday: okie, give me a minute. [05:32] looks good, ziroday. [05:32] !aptitude | grodius [05:32] grodius: aptitude is another terminal-based front-end to APT. Like other APT front-ends, it can install/remove packages and their dependencies (on Dapper and earlier, however, only aptitude keeps track of unused dependencies). See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AptitudeSurvivalGuide [05:32] Flannel: is there an advantage to using aptitude over apt-get? [05:32] snurfle: great! [05:32] snurfle: make sure to delete your old profile [05:32] at the moment, executing: aticonfig --initial solved my problme [05:32] pain to re-setup everything :( but thanks! [05:32] Can any op ban HiBuddy? (spambot) [05:32] grodius: Nope, there used to be. [05:32] Weems: I'd recommend making a backup of the file first. Screwing up the file means no Xorg [05:32] inasmu: can i create it from the boot cd? [05:32] well... still no lower panel... but that's a different issue i assume... [05:32] nathan: sorry to bother but where can i find the xorg.log? [05:32] how to capture screen video and translete to web site exemple www.mebeam.com [05:32] sudo cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.beforeIsmAvatarmademedowhathedid [05:32] grodius: aptitude will autoremove and other stuff, but that can be dangerous, so ubuntu-devs recomend using apt-get not aptitude [05:32] :D [05:32] ok [05:33] I am now attempted to full a full upgrade from kubuntu 8.10 to 9.04.... wish me luck [05:33] snurfle: do you have any panels? [05:33] how do I change the settings for Notify OSD? [05:33] me revoila [05:33] IsmAvatar: like? [05:33] lrojas: It's in /var/log [05:33] nathan_: why would you need luck? [05:33] comment je config ma wifi [05:33] just the top (default), but the lower one is just blank... nothing at all. [05:33] who know how to write .bachrc ? i want to add some variable ! [05:33] ziroday: Pidgin's logged in/out [05:33] IsmAvatar: You can't... yet. They might make it configurable in 9.10 [05:33] IndyGunFreak, hence the support channel :P [05:33] exodus_ms: lol, i guess. [05:33] jerbear: yeah, you just create a regular partition, formatted ext3, that you set as "/boot." The installer will take care of putting all the files in there, all you have to do is create it. Normally the installer makes all this stuff it self, but when you do encryption you need something that isn't encrypted that can run stuff to decrypt the rest of the system [05:34] I have a few users who keep logging in and out so frequently that you may as well make the balloon permanent! [05:34] exodus_ms: when in doubt, just do a clean install [05:34] Flannel: Any idea what the best setup would be for partitioning my drives on a fresh install of ubuntu? I have 1TB drive and a 300gig drive (not using lvm as I dont need it to be resizable once done)? Thanks in advance :) [05:34] Cutter: I don't have a clue...it was working fine and then I installed something off add or remove programs to make it be able to do 3d and then i wasn't able to do anything after that. [05:34] gnail: just edit the file in your home directory using vim, nano, gedit, etc. [05:34] inasmu: where do i go in the boot cd to get to fdisk? or an equivalent? [05:34] is there anyway to install ubuntu beside booting off a cd or usb? [05:34] the lower panel (desktop switcher, trash bin, current apps...) is just blank after upping to 9.04. [05:34] IsmAvatar: just disable notification for login/logoff. It's either in the libnotify plugin preferences or pidgin's main preferenences [05:34] but how to write .bashrc [05:35] gnail: what do you want it to do? [05:35] Flannel: The main thing I am using this system for is downloading and multiple vmware installs [05:35] I know in Windows you can copy the i386 directory and install windows off there, can you do the same in ubuntu? [05:35] jerbear: If you use the Alternate Installer, when you get to the step about "partioning the drives" if you select custom, it has a good GUI for creating all the encryption/LVM stuff [05:35] add some variable of QT [05:35] inasmu: ok [05:35] there aren't the file of .bashrc [05:36] or is Windows installer actually better than ubuntu's install process? [05:36] woa! Thanks so much, ripps! [05:36] nathan: odd, according to the log, i am using the driver, but is not installed :S [05:36] IsmAvatar: that drove me crazy yesterday to. [05:36] hey guys, i've got an machine runing an old debian install. I want to get new ubuntu. i guess i'd do a network install. here is a a problem. I have /boot separate from the rest of /. and it's fairly small. i'd reformat and resize the boot up to 256Mb. and install ubuntu. i dont' have usb keys or any optical drives. what woudl you recommend? [05:36] IsmAvatar: your welcome === n_nick is now known as c_nick [05:36] nathan: i could be reading it wrong [05:36] alright, I am having problems with my video card to the point that I can't see anything on the screen that is readable. I am at the recovery menu on my other computer. What do I do now? [05:36] If you add lines in the format "VARIABLE=value" in your .bashrc it will add those variables to your configuration the next time you source the .bashrc. [05:36] !compiz [05:36] Compiz (compositing window manager), for a howto see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompositeManager and more help #compiz-fusion [05:36] Does anyone know if the new overlay in 9.04 has any customizable options? [05:37] gnome-panel brings it back, but after i reboot, it is blank again. [05:37] Criten: overlay? [05:37] oh thank you [05:37] would someone who tried ext4 suggest whether to go for it or stay ext3... I am in a not-so-mission critical environment. [05:37] i will try it [05:37] ripps: if you run pidgin and its not in the foreground and you get a message it shows up in an overlay in the upper right [05:37] ripps: also if you change screen brightness, volue, etc [05:38] HI, I am still having trouble with audio, if I run pulseaudio manually it all works, but it doesn't work automattically what is wrong ? [05:38] i also noticed i cant change my windows borders no matter what theme or options i choose. [05:38] sriramoman: If you're in a not-so-mission-critical environment, it doesn't really matter one way or another. [05:38] Criten: oh, you mean notify-osd, it's not configurable yet. They might add some configuration for ubuntu 9.10 [05:38] methinks that's a compiz issue though. [05:38] ripps: thanks [05:38] fearthenofear: do you remember what packages you have installed before the screen went black? [05:38] Just wondering if anyone knows how to configure Ubuntu 9.04 so that only the external speakers play audio, currently have both external and internal audio output.

[05:41] deop flannel [05:42] danes_: g++ [05:42] danes_: The default linux gcc, would probably do fine [05:42] inasmu: no, i went to manual, created /boot. trying to get back to the menu that had "encrypted lvm" now [05:42] danes_ gcc will do it (g++) [05:42] ruser: Since you can't resize mounted stuff there's not a lot of options there [05:42] genii, i guess even if it's in r/o mode, right? [05:42] thanks [05:42] jerbear: hang on, I'll quickly launch the alternate install so I can remember the exact steps [05:43] genii, i do have a knoppix cd somewhere... just gotta find it :) [05:43] ruser: I wouldn't chance that.

[05:57] i wish people would stop saying that [05:57] Tomas_: iow reading the lists.ubuntu.com webpage is much easier than making your own dist :) [05:58] a "few" prooblems had to be reinstalled before they would work for me [05:58] saying what Tomas_ ?

[06:00] Tomas_: so go to wiki.ubuntu.com and read all about MOTU stuff first :) [06:00] Tomas_: what would you do with your own distribution, just curious [06:00] * calc going to bed, bbl [06:01] I'm getting this error, what should I do?

[06:07] how do i find my seconed hard drive on here [06:07] what's better with ubuntu, dual boot, or vmware? [06:08] azharcs: Change your download source to Main Servier in System->Admin->Software Sources [06:08] guideX for what? [06:08] CyberMe: Yes, hardy heron 8.04 [06:08] Vague, Cyberme: was there something in 9.04 you couldn't live without. I've been seeing people with 9.04 problems on here all day long... [06:08] ubuntu [06:08] guideX, what do you want to be able to do with Ubuntu? [06:08] ripps, will try that [06:08] only have 1 pc, running windows vista 64 [06:08] I hated 8.10 [06:08] should i dual boot, or vmware [06:08] losher, not really, at least it doesn't look like it to me...I'm happy with my current install, I should probably wait then eh? [06:08] I use VMWare Workstation [06:08] I can even play some DirectX games. [06:08] SJr: you could point that out in #ubuntu-ops if you'd like [06:08] The network manager in 8.04 didnt cut it for me [06:09] VPN, EVDo card etc [06:09] vmware is a good solution guideX but remember you won't see it at its' bset [06:09] all had problems with 8.04 [06:09] *best [06:09] what you talkin about, SJr.. [06:09] losher: there's tons of people here with problems EVERY release. It's actually not that bad this year, you can actually read what people are saying without it disapearing. [06:09] how do i find my secoend hard drive on 9.04 [06:09] Vague: you know what they say: if it 'aint broke... [06:09] aww the new wallpaper is bad [06:09] administrator__, ide or sata? [06:09] you can't use visual effects and such can you [06:09] bsrat with VMWare [06:09] dont know [06:09] and the login screen looks bad too [06:09] i think sata [06:10] whats the biggest problem people are having today? [06:10] firefox [06:10] ripps: I don't disagree. The only thing suprising about it is that people seem surprised they have problems. [06:10] Cutter, I prefer my custom setup, it's always easier to just find one you like on gnome-look.org or something [06:10] i've mainly seen graphics issues [06:10] CyberMe: Crappy intel drivers, unsupported ati cards, and occasional missing sound [06:10] heh, i can't clear my firefox cache from a certain point [06:10] administrator__,mkdir /media/disk; mount -t /dev/sdb0 /media/disk [06:10] i concur, having difficulties with ATI drivers. [06:10] Cyberme: my biggest with 9.04 was the sound disappeared. [06:10] litwol, whats wrong with ati drivers...work fine [06:10] sound was a small issue for me too [06:10] Vague: previous default looks were ok [06:11] losher, true, is there any way to see what's "New"? The release notes are documenting the bugs and such, I'd like to see what the new features are [06:11] i uninstalled pulse [06:11] especially wallpapers [06:11] in 8.04 and 8.10 [06:11] maybe i just dont know how to install them correctly [06:11] firefox is freezing like crazy for me [06:11] just using alsa and the only problem is virtualbox sound is a both choppy [06:11] i get a weird sound noise when i log off, its a real quick loud nise [06:11] how would i do that [06:11] Vague: there was a page somewhere [06:11] litwol, what card do you have? [06:11] celthunder: people with older ati cards are butthurt that AMD discontiued driver support for them [06:11] mont the drive [06:11] hi. i want to create a startup usb disk and it's said 'unable to find the partition number' [06:12] celthunder: i do not recall right now. not in a mood to crawl under the table and investigate in the dark :-p. it can wait :) [06:12] ripps, then spend 20 bucks buy a new card...i just got a 4850 1gb model for 80$ and im getting a 4870 for 95 in a week [06:12] Cutter, I haven't seen it, gotta google some then, I did change everything to different shades of blue for me (Water themes, etc) so I never had to deal with the defaults, but... [06:12] anyone partition to ext4 with this version? It seems to be pretty fast for me. [06:12] celthunder: or just use the damn foss drivers, they work great with all the discontinued cards anyway [06:13] there suppose to be a bug with ext4 still [06:13] some lockup i think when you delete a file [06:13] err >.> Okay, I'm already unhappy with the upgrades [06:13] I haven't see that one yet. (Knock on wood) [06:13] Apparently firefox is just a blank gray box to me now? [06:13] Cyberme: I'd be scared to go with a new FS format for at least a coupla releases. Except maybe under vmware as a toy [06:13] JohnDoe, CyberMe: The lockup is pretty rare, happens when you delete large amounts of big files usually... [06:14] Cyberme: Lotta brave people out there... [06:14] losher, ext4 is broken in vmware (it doesnt work properly....to get the actual speed boost you have to do it on a physical drive [06:14] I'm an idiot like that lolol [06:14] I have a complete backup and dont mind a format if need be [06:14] celthunder: didn't know that, thank you! [06:14] losher, also in vmware ext4 will cry at you that theres too many fragments [06:14] I'm going to wait until Ubuntu actual supports ext4 as it's default fs to upgrade. [06:14] k i got vlc to play the sound but no video when starting via terminal. [06:14] ty...since stability isn't a high priority for me, i'll be using ext4 [06:14] vmware = cost virtualbox = free [06:15] * Vague agrees with ripps [06:15] i format my system on a weekly or monthly basis :D [06:15] actually vmware is free. [06:15] CyberMe, vmware = better than virtualbox [06:15] you are incorrect. [06:15] Having installed Ubuntu 9.04 server from iso.image to virtualBox, what aptitude command do I use to install build-essential from the mounted ISO? [06:15] egh, lemme restart, and hope my freaking firefox works O_O [06:15] "sudo apt-get install build-essential" [06:15] paradisaeidae, ^ [06:15] Anyone know of any apps similar to Sandboxie that runs under Linux and is free? [06:15] Cyberme: I have a complete backup: <- how I wish more people said that on this list [06:15] daftykins: beat me to it [06:15] oh from the ISO, sorry paradisaeidae didn't read that bit [06:15] daftykins, depends on your situation, virtualbox isnt always free and niether is vmware. I for instance am getting workstation free till 7.0 comes out at which time i need to buy it. [06:15] I have both and think vmware sucks. guess its all in what you're using it for [06:16] celthunder, server (although it sucks with the webadmin) is free. [06:16] paradisaeidae you had to edit your sources for the last time [06:16] hahahaha @losher [06:16] I had usb problems under virtualbox. vmware has always been my first choice [06:16] i d/led a ttf font, how do i install it? [06:17] i'm going with vmware workstation this time to avoid the rubbish web interface on server [06:17] losher if usb w/virtbox is setup correctly it works great [06:17] i've not used virtualbox in a bit but i think it's inferior [06:17] zhanx: thanks, link nasty here, did not see yr comments. [06:17] my sound playback is not working after trying the troubleshoot in 9.04 [06:17] Using vBox 2.2.0 here. All good.

All linux's permanent config data is stored in files, nearly always somewhere under /etc. It has its pros and cons... [06:27] crdlb, the only problem currently with using the server kernel is it breaks the Nvidia X server. [06:27] losher: what are the cons? [06:27] ripps: thanks :) [06:27] which is the version of vlc offered with 8.10 or 9.04? [06:27] im getting null device when I load the pulse audio volume control any way to fix that [06:27] bsmall2006: your welcome [06:28] Yondering: are you using the packaged version of the nvidia driver? I was under the impression that it worked [06:28] inasmu: Well, config files get lost when people have long ext4 delays and the apps don't flush! [06:28] crdlb, I'm using the server kernel now and it won't activate. [06:28] xy|ox: version 0.99a is included with 9.04 its awesome but had a couple bugs [06:28] pulse sucks [06:28] inasmu: well, there's no central agreed on place to keep config -- this is both a pro and a con I think [06:28] inasmu, well, in my opinion the biggest pro would be avoiding bloat. Registry's get filled with useless crap that's never deleted by bad program installs/removals and sch [06:29] Yondering: out of curiosity, what are you planning on doing that requires more than 3GB of ram? [06:29] I prefer smplayer over vlc/totem any day. [06:29] losher, Vague: how is that different from a registry though? [06:29] Yondering: pretty much everything is available for amd64 now, btw (including native flash) [06:29] joe__, does that version has the option of only 1 instance running? [06:29] inasmu, well, I don't know much about Linux's base setup, hence why I asked, if it had a registry, and such O_o [06:30] foremost EXP? [06:30] Vague: linux doesn't anything like a registry, but Gnome uses something similar called gconf [06:30] crdlb, and yet the random third party apps are still available primarily in 32-bit only. [06:30] Vague: thats kinda what I meant, at least when your /etc folder gets filled with cruft its in named folders and is easier to figure out [06:30] xy|ox: I don't believe the settings for VLC change if you currently have vlc installed but there is the option I ahve used it both in ubuntu and windows [06:30] But, from what I've experienced, over time, even with proper maintenance, your windows installation will get bogged down with useless registry keys and stuff of that nature, and it's never seemed to happen to my Linux installations [06:30] Vague: you could say the same about files littered all over etc. The biggest pro seems to be that one application won't corrupt another's data very easily as seems to happen in the registry. [06:31] Indeed [06:31] Vague: That's because linux doesn't need all those keys and crap. every app has it's own config file safely stored in your home [06:31] I tried the old fix for googleearth for small fonts and it does not work - anybody solved it on jaunty 64 bit ? [06:31] Was wonder which file system to run foremost on to find deleted txt files? [06:31] crdlb, out of curiosity, has the 32-bit library support improved in JJ 64-bit? it was a pain in 8.04 to use with some apps that were only available in 32-bit. [06:31] ripps, ahhh...Okay, so in home, every application has a hidden file/folder using all of that stuff? [06:31] Google has little to say about it [06:31] Good idea O_o [06:32] Vague: there are exceptions, but for the most part, yes [06:32] Yondering: I have no idea; my main computer doesn't support amd64 [06:32] joe__, i have vlc 0.8.6 which is the one offered with 8.04, and it hasnt that option, but i have read this option is included in newer versions [06:32] Vague: this might say more about the quality of windows programmers vs. unix programmers. Fighting words on some lists... [06:32] Vague: they start with a dot like .configwhatever [06:32] guys what a free easy to use apt that i can see my win xp shae files..i tired smb4k : ( [06:32] there are now two notifications applets for the taskbar [06:33] how retarted is that? [06:33] It's a lot more organised than a registry (which is a nightmare to maintain, in my opinion) I would assume, sounds lovely :} Wonder if there's a GUI for maintaining and removing useless junk under linux >.> [06:33] Vague: so thyre hidden [06:33] xy|ox: vlc most definitely has the option to only run one instance of the player [06:33] and Thunderbird still doesn't use any of them to show unread mail [06:33] What is the command to copy and replace to a location? [06:33] through the terminal? [06:33] NOD62: mv [06:33] crdlb, oh well. I had hopes that this wouldn't be an issue with this release. I vaguely recall reading somewhere that the Nvidia X server won't work with this server kernel because it identifies as a Xen server. [06:33] zippyfish: as far I'm aware, samba and cifs are the only way to see window shares in linux. [06:34] Vague: user apps tend to have a "dotfile" in your home directory. System apps tend to keep files under /etc. Also, most such files are often plain text and you can read them and go in and fix them if you know enough. At one time, that was kind of the only way to configure stuff. [06:34] is tere any virtual keybord in ubuntu? [06:34] Vague: ubuntu-tweak has a good app cleaner [06:34] I just hjumped up to jaunty [06:34] pisecx: yes there are a few [06:34] joe__, not version 0.8.6, its a known issue, i have searched in google [06:34] can you ive me names, please? [06:35] or link [06:35] pisecx: Im sure you could do a google of it [06:35] I tried [06:35] didnt find any [06:35] app cleaner? like rm *kde* ? [06:35] ripps: got everything to work thank you for your help again :) [06:35] pisecx: xvkbd, klavier, kvkdb [06:35] tanks [06:35] bsmall2006: your welcome [06:35] Hmm mabey search package manager [06:35] : ( [06:35] losher, heh, that actually sounds sort of interesting. [06:36] ripps, Thanks =) [06:36] Vague: your welcome [06:36] xy|ox: if you upgrade to version 0.9.9a you will get the option to run a single instance. period. Oh and it looks cooler too :) [06:36] pisecx: But! try gok first [06:36] crdlb, thanks for the input... trying something. [06:37] doleyb: Too late for pisces [06:37] Hello everyone. Does anyone run Jaunty and has gotten Handbrake GUI to run on it? [06:37] ripps: I think that's the weakness of a central repository. One bad app can trash almost anything. Separate files are less prone to that, On a mature filesystem, it's almost unheard of. [06:38] MarkJones: Its working fine for me [06:38] joe__, ok thanks [06:38] MarkJones, yes it works fine [06:38] What can I do about this error? http://pastebin.com/m1537827f [06:38] Can i ask if there is a package built specifically for jaunty or did you folks simply install the intrepid package from there homepage? [06:38] reinstall then remove [06:39] MarkJones: I installed the ubuntu package from the handbrake website [06:39] pinion: reinstall then remove like CyberMe said [06:39] test [06:39] chenwz: test test [06:39] Vague: there's actually a distro (I forget the name) where they said that apps shouldn't stick their stuff all over /etc, and every app gets its own dedicated directory where all it's files belong. Not worth the extra hassle IMO... [06:39] Hmm Strange mine will load, but only icons and buttons of the windows show after a mouse rollover.But its unusable and i dont know why. [06:39] pinion: try 'sudo apt-get purge flashplugin-nonfree', then try reinstalling it. [06:40] Vague: Do you love me now? [06:40] losher: you're talking about gobolinux [06:40] I love that app too. [06:40] How much disk space should be available for an upgrade to 9.04 from 8.04. I have ~7gbs available on / [06:40] inasmu: gobolinux, thanks. [06:40] thats enough space [06:40] ty CyberMe [06:40] 4gb for a full install [06:41] exodus_ms: lol you'll have 7 gb left when you're done [06:41] can some one help me with reinstalling wine [06:41] exodus_ms: I think the catche would be most of the space [06:41] exodus_ms: how much of that 7G is in use by 8.04? [06:41] losher, Yes :} I'm learning new stuff about Ubuntu, and that's always love worthy...I was actually wondering; is there a difference between dynamic link libraries and the libraries used by the package manager? O_o Or does that function the same way? [06:41] trey__: 'sudo apt-get purge wine' then 'sudo apt-get install wine [06:41] he said 7gb available [06:41] dll hell [06:41] doleyb, yeah, I thougth so, but running into problems trying to upgrade, only "partial upgrade" available [06:41] exodus_ms: oops. misread it, 7G available... [06:42] how does one install files manually downloaed from getdeb but they all depend on each other? [06:42] that wont work cus thats not my prob [06:42] *downloaded [06:42] sorry for the random questions O_O I'm just wandering around the applications on linux and directories and noticing things like that lol [06:42] Hey, um, I'm a serious n00b (as in, just installed Ubuntu), and I was working through a how-to guide on the forums to get a driver for a Lexmark z600 installed. The last step tells me to use the command sudo /etc/rc2.d/S19cupsys restart , but when I do, I just end up with "command not found." I was wondering if anyone could tell me what's wrong here. Thanks for any help! [06:42] trey__: That's what she said. [06:42] m0u5e: if it's a .deb.. just double click it [06:42] it wont insatll the menu links [06:43] scunizi: no but i have a bunch of files and they all depend on each other [06:43] scunizi: so it doesn't want to install... [06:43] trey__: do you mean on your desktop? [06:43] JValentine: probably meant "sudo service cups restart" [06:43] join #ubuntu-fr [06:43] JValentine: look for any file resembling cupsys in /etc/rc2.d and use it instead [06:43] m0u5e: most files on getdeb depend on files already in the ubuntu repos [06:43] how do you enable graphics card support in 9.04 in virtual box on a macbook pro [06:43] yes [06:43] m0u5e: then you have to use synaptic to install the missing files. hopefully they are available. [06:43] ripps: the specific app in question is westnoth, there are like 5 files on getdeb and they all depend on each other [06:43] Vague: almost all modern linuxes use dynamic libraries, which is what the package manager installs. What it means is that when a program runs, you only need one copy of a library, which all programs can share, so you save space [06:44] m0u5e: Before installing something from getdeb, try seeing someone has made a PPA of it on Launchpad [06:44] ripps: wesnoth* [06:44] ripps: well i wanted to use getdeb since it was faster, otherwise i'd just compile it myself [06:44] ok I finally got the jaunty alternate dvd [06:44] losher, oh, so in that way they're alike? [06:44] heh [06:44] i sad yes [06:44] I'm attempting to upgrade via the DVD [06:44] Vague: what are alike? [06:44] and then I'll get any updates via the net [06:45] losher, linux, and windows, in the use of dlls? [06:45] trey__ right click on the desktop and it should give you an option link create link or create shorcut [06:45] or something like that [06:45] thats not going to work [06:45] Guys, right now I'm dual booting Win7 and Linux Mint. I wanna install Jaunty OVER linux mint, how would I go about doing that? [06:45] m0u5e: this ppa has version of wesnoth: https://edge.launchpad.net/~stikonas/+archive/ppa [06:45] why not? [06:45] btw, I meant an upgrade from 8.10 to 9.04 just in case anyone was following along and thought it was possible to do an upgrade from the latter version [06:45] i tryed that [06:45] Whats a good utility that I can use to resize my hard disk with NTFS and EXT3 partitions, and not have it ravage my ability to boot. [06:46] Vague: yes, pretty much any modern OS uses dynamic libraries though the details might vary. The space saving is too big to ignore.... [06:46] SUP3RCANSIR, what are you trying to do there ? [06:46] Goodmorning. I have just relocated and want to switch the time zone in the calendar applet, but it does not work for me, not in intrepid nor in jaunty. Get a dbus timeout. Any idea what the problem is? It's no deal breaker but it is bugging me. [06:46] ripps: i kinda don't want to add an entire repository just for one app :X [06:46] SUP3RCANSIR, are you wanting to save anything from your previous install ? [06:46] it wont install the links in gnome [06:46] SJr: gparted [06:46] SUP3RCANSIR, if you want to save anything I would advise backing it up on another partition maybe [06:46] trey__: have you been able to create links to other programs? [06:46] or archive it [06:46] yes [06:47] I don't want it to touch my win7 installation, mint can go to the deepest darkest pits of motherboard hell [06:47] The repository has only one file for jaunty, and this way, you can be sure it was compiled to work correctly with your system. You can remove the repository after installing it. [06:47] ah [06:47] are you sure that the program is not command line only? [06:47] has ctrl+alt+backspace for restarting X been removed intentionally in jauny? [06:47] genii: got another question about resizing my stuff. i've got /boot separate and / is on extended partion, does that change thigns for me in terms of resizing? [06:47] m0u5e: ^ [06:47] just make sure you select the linux mint partition to be formatted when you install Jaunty, SUP3RCANSIR [06:47] ripps: ah thx [06:47] trey__: are you sure that the program is not command line only? [06:48] if I disappear it is because I am about to upgrade [06:48] im insatlling it right from synaptic [06:48] Oh, I know how to do that. I meant grub wise, will it take care of the stuff for me? [06:48] likely so [06:48] m0u5e: wesnoth is in the repositories [06:48] it should install a bootloader etc if I recall [06:48] I can't seem to run openbox on the new distro [06:48] !info wesnoth [06:48] wesnoth (source: wesnoth): fantasy turn-based strategy game - complete suite. In component universe, is extra. Version 1:1.6a-3ubuntu1 (jaunty), package size 1 kB, installed size 24 kB [06:48] hello everyone... I have a qwik question.... how can I tell if I have to install ubuntu with a driver cd [06:48] trey__: but if the program doesn't have a GUI there is a good chance you won't be able to link to it on your desktop [06:48] it installd just fine the frest time [06:48] anyone else having openbox issues? [06:48] Alright, thanks. I'll go mess around with it now. [06:48] it has a gui [06:48] ruser: The / on extended previously worked fine? [06:49] One more question! ebox or webmin for jaunty? [06:49] m0u5e: geez, i didn't even bother to check, it's in the universe repos [06:49] hello [06:49] ripps: its not the newest version though [06:49] trey__: then I don't know lol have you tried google? [06:49] matholum: boot the live cd and see if everthing works.. if it does then it has all the drivers you need without needing a seperate cd [06:49] yes [06:49] I installed Ubuntu 9.04 but it came with Gnome. How do I change it to KDE 4? [06:49] !info amarok [06:49] amarok (source: amarok): easy to use media player based on the KDE 4 technology platform. In component main, is optional.

[06:49] m0u5e: isn't the latest version 1.6? thats whats there [06:49] GNUix: 1.6.1 [06:50] axia: eh you should download Kubuntu instead of ubuntu! [06:50] this is the sec place to try [06:50] axia: sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop and then on the login screen after reboot change "sessions" [06:50] arg. this is asanine... [06:50] axia: You should have installed Kubuntu, but you still install kde by install 'kubuntu-desktop' [06:50] scunizi... well, that is what I am wondering... is it possible that I would need a driver cd to even install it? [06:50] to get help [06:50] genii: yes. so i have some randome fat16 partition with recovery crap from dell. and a ntfs partition with other recovery crap. then i have /boot then i have extended which hiolds / and my main ntfs for windows. it worked fine. but i can't seem to be able to shift the extended partition in order to extend my boot [06:50] thanks. I'll try that [06:50] matholum: no [06:50] Awesome. I just got the driver to work. Thanks so much for your help! [06:50] what other WMs are out there which are really fast and responsive? [06:51] scunizi... hmm... i have tried several versions of ubuntu, and disks, and can't get it to install... [06:51] and don't look like ratpoison [06:51] !info openoffice > exodus_ms [06:51] ok jaunty is REALLY nice.. no complaints thus far [06:51] genii: i guess my question is: how can i extend my boot. while i have extended partition? [06:51] When I try: sudo apt-get purge flashplugin-nonfree I get sudo apt-get purge flashplugin-nonfree [06:51] axia: lots.. xfce if one of the standard quick ones... [06:51] axia: Xubuntu (xfce), lxde, fluxbuntu [06:51] dpkg: error processing flashplugin-nonfree (--purge): [06:51] Package is in a very bad inconsistent state - you should [06:51] reinstall it before attempting a removal.

[06:51] E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1) [06:51] thanks. i'll try them all [06:51] m0u5e: I dunno.. new to ubuntu but there should be a way to use apt-get to install just the dependencies for wesnoth then download and compile yourself [06:51] axia: there is a lot of WMs [06:51] matholum: that may be for several reasons.. motherboard chipset is one of the primary ones. what are you running [06:52] ruser: just search the apt repo's [06:52] GNUix: yeah i know how to compile, i was wondering how to satisfy deps using deb packages from getdeb [06:52] which file in (Xserver-org) do i go to to add or create xtra hz resolutions? [06:52] ruser: I'm not sure if resizing an extended partition which contains mixed filesystems is possible (I have not tried this personally) [06:52] scunizi: a Dell Demension 6400i... has an intel pentium 4 @ 2.6GHz [06:52] ruser, you from calgary by chance?

I am new [06:52] m0u5e: install wesnoth via the universe repos, then install the ubpdate packages from getdeb. [06:52] does anyone know why in 9.04 i am only able to connect to my computer (ssh) throgh the dyndns name. the local ip address dont work [06:52] ruser, right on, new to ubuntu?

If you are looking for system help, please refer to https://help.ubuntu.com/community - the Ubuntu community documentation. [06:53] ripps: cant do it that way, because the packages depend on each other [06:53] m0u5e: have you tried to install the main, then afterwards try: apt-get install -f [06:53] billybigrigger: i've been a debian user for long time, but i'm new to ubuntu [06:53] which file in (Xserver-org) do i go to to add or create xtra refresh rates? [06:53] ruser: regular NTFS partitions can be resized if you have ntfs-progs package installed bfore using the pertitioner [06:53] ruser, cool beans, glad to see another calgarian :P [06:53] or aptitude install -f [06:53] I installed openbox then changed the session to openbox/gnome and it came back with an error and wont run openbox.... anyone else having openbox issues? [06:53] thx [06:53] centHOGG: following with the specific file location like $HOME/wesnoth.deb? [06:53] has anyone been able to get amarok 2 to import ratings and playcounts from a 1.4 collection? [06:53] scunizi: i have gotten sveral errors, but the main one is kernel panic, unable to mount root fs on unknown block [06:53] ruser, pumped for the flames game tommarow or are you not a sports fan? [06:53] genii: i see, i guess im out of luck, i've got only 30 megs for /boot :/ [06:53] pinion: tried "apt-get install --reinstall flashplugin-nonfree" or some such? [06:54] ruser: You booted to an ubuntu livecd or so? [06:54] billybigrigger: i'm not really from calgary, i've been living here 6 motnh and another 6month pending untill the project is over. but i'll be skiing tomorrow :) [06:54] losher: yes, no joy [06:54] m0u5e: download all the wesnoth packages from getdeb into a directory, then, in a terminal, run 'dpkg -i *.deb' [06:54] genii: yeah, i found my knoppix cd [06:54] m0u5e: well nothing specific, they are all debs right? just do that main wesnoth deb... then right afterwards: apt-get install -f [06:54] m0u5e send you a pm [06:54] ruser, ahh banff area? [06:54] I can't past the drive check with jaunty. Is there anyway to pypass. Right now it says, "unclean shutdown, checking drive" and then it will exit to the command line "run fsck manually" At the command line, how can I start X. The drive may be bad, it is 5 years old. But, I have been running ubuntu 8.10 up till this morning [06:54] ripps: oh ty [06:54] billybigrigger: gonna go to sunshine [06:54] what your not going to help me [06:55] ruser, nice, i didn't go a single time this year :P [06:55] billybigrigger: lol, i've been going almost every weekend :) [06:55] blbrown_win: unless you can press esc to skip it you can't skip the fsck [06:55] ruser, had lots of time, no spare cash, usually i have tons of money in the winter but no time :P [06:55] losher: this is what I get: http://pastebin.com/m47ef015b [06:55] ziroday, I am at the command line now. What is the command to start ubuntu [06:55] ruser: Hm. Perhaps see if you can install onto the livecd the package "ntfsprogs" (in Ubuntu this is the name, knoppix may vary) and re-try then the partitioner [06:55] matholum: might be an acpi issue.. there is a way of changing that on the kernel line when booting the cd.. I've forgotten how though [06:56] blbrown_win: command line where? [06:56] bad news its not winter [06:56] Oops >.> [06:56] genii: i'm not sure how ntfsprogs gonna help me with resizing extended. i dont' think it's possible to resize extended partittion [06:56] just joking [06:56] blbrown_win: how did you get to it? [06:56] everything you want to know about ubuntu, but you gotta read. [06:56] pinion: that's a better message than the one about corruption. Tried installing the dependency? [06:56] http://maketecheasier.com/10-useful-ubuntu-related-sites-you-should-bookmark/2009/04/24/ [06:56] genii: atlest i've got about 2 gig unalocated on extended so it should be able to downsize the extended [06:56] losher: yes, It won't install because of the error [06:57] fuck it [06:57] genii: and potentially shft it [06:57] scunizi: i think I have heard of that... it is acpi=off i think.... i will try that and see what it does. Plus I haven't tried jaunty yet... i will try that first... [06:57] ziroday, I start the machine. It attemps to run drive check ("It doesn't say anything about ESC"), at 65%, it quits to the command line, saying it is a read only filesystem, etc. [06:57] blbrown_win: right, you need to do fsck [06:57] which file can edit in Xserver-org to change or add refresh rates? [06:57] Xcell: /etc/X11/xorg.conf [06:57] ok [06:57] blbrown_win: type in 'fsck' [06:57] tx [06:57] ruser: http://gparted.sourceforge.net/larry/resize/resizing.htm indicates extended partition resizing is possible [06:58] genii: oh right on let me check it out [06:58] ziroday, ok, I am doing that. what if that fails also [06:58] matholum: yep that's it. Jaunty might fix things [06:58] losher: I get alot more output when trying to do it tho: http://pastebin.com/m394169ba [06:58] Ready to upgrade but have one concern, tried system>update manager and was greeted with a message "Not all updates can be installed" "run a partial upgrade" I selected "check" and was greeted with same message, should I continue with upgrade?

[07:08] ok [07:08] is there a good tv tuner card to recommend for someone that wants to use xawtv? or a place to look at how well certain cards work? [07:08] well they changed the volume controls [07:08] so that was stupid [07:08] but still [07:08] ok, I guess I need to reinstall everything, which means lots of things to backup and reinstall. [07:08] nyaa: ask myth peoples. like mythbuntu I suppose [07:08] it still is acting like it is retrieving the updates from the net [07:08] how do I fully uninstall compiz?

[07:09] Yondering, http://kernelnewbies.org/ http://lxr.linux.no/ [07:09] losher: I guess [07:09] pinion, this sounds dumb, reinstall it then uninstall it [07:09] digdeep: or you can just continue using ext3.

[07:14] when I check my appearance options it merely says that compiz is not installed [07:14] histo: I tried that and no joy [07:14] :) [07:14] if i make aliases on my .bashrc, what code do i run to enable them? do refresh something? :) [07:15] wers: you ahve to log out and back in for changes to take effect in your .bashrc [07:15] histo, found it. i had to source .bashrc :D === maden is now known as popeyz [07:15] acoustyk: you should have a visual effects tab in Appearence. There should be three bullets there 1 = metacity, 2 = metacity w/ compositing, 3 = compiz [07:15] histo: you can source it [07:15] Can trickle be used automatically on every program the user wishes to run without htem specifically needing to open that program with it? like alt+f2 firefox [07:16] pinion: ok, there are only a handful of files in the package, none of them important. Please stand by [07:16] ruser: source what? [07:16] histo: your bash config [07:16] source .bashrc [07:16] losher: standing by.. [07:16] what he said [07:17] ripps, are you talking about the (none, normal, extra) tab? because thats blocked out with a message saying "compiz is not installed" [07:17] hulo! I would like to move my / to a new partition. Is it a simply a matter of rsync -avx /old/ /new ? [07:17] acoustyk: the first two should never be greyed out. [07:17] ripps, lol then we have another problem [07:17] hulo, no [07:18] hulo, it you do that it won't boot [07:18] acoustyk mine is the same way I uninstalled compiz too [07:18] hulo: don't know if rsync will get everything. [07:18] pinion: ok, it looks like the package status is kept in the file /var/lib/dpkg/status. Since nothing else has worked, I propose we edit this file by hand. If I'm wrong we might mess up your system completely and you'll have to reinstall. Let me know if you want to go ahead with this... [07:18] and you still experience effects? [07:19] hulo, easiest way is to do a fresh install and copy the home over [07:19] acoustyk nope [07:19] oh well I am [07:19] and I dont know why [07:19] thats odd [07:19] acoustyk: maybe you should just reinstall compiz, apparently ubuntu likes having there, just for kicks [07:19] losher: let's do it [07:19] how can i utilise my 3rd mouse button? [07:19] Meson8925: hulo there are ways of doing it rather than reinstalling. === NIdYa is now known as miss_MUTe [07:19] ripps, :in the process of reinstalling atm: im going to uninstall again and see if things change [07:19] Meson8925: it's the whole root partition (i don't have any other partitions besides boot and swap) [07:20] hulo: is the other partition going to be bigger? [07:20] histo: same size [07:20] hulo: you can use dd [07:20] acoustyk: just install compiz and leave, ubuntu apparently wants it there [07:20] histo: not exactly same size [07:20] how come i always see rsync -av in backup scripts? [07:20] ripps, I dont want it though, metacity uses less resources and battery power [07:21] that means not everything is getting backed up [07:21] hulo: dd if=/path/to/old/partition of=/path/to/new/partition bs=[blocksize] [07:21] losher: so what should I do? [07:21] hulo: I would go like 1k for the block size. [07:21] I just installed jaunty and got a bit further. I am now getting a blank screen and the keyboard doesn't respond. I am assuming this is an X issue. First, how do I get to the command line on startup and then how can I run that nvidia X config through the command line [07:21] histo: won't there be wasted space? [07:21] acoustyk: what's the problem are you tirng to sssssssssssssssssolve? [07:21] acoustyk: I didn't say you had to use it, just keep it installed [07:21] hulo: the other option is to create a seperate home and move that. [07:21] whops. keyboard bug [07:21] hulo, you might be able to do rysnc like this rsync --delete --exclude /proc/ --exclude /tmp/ --exclude /mnt/ --exclude /mirror/ --exclude /etc/fstab/ --exclude /sys/ -ave 'ssh -p 3784' root@206.223.146.37:/ /media/_/ [07:21] lol whops [07:21] pinion: first, lets back the file up: "cp /var/lib/dpkg/status /var/lib/dpkg/status.bak" [07:22] Meson8925: hm, that looks wrong [07:22] somewhat [07:22] losher: done [07:22] would gpartd allow me to move a partition from one hard drive to another? [07:22] ruse, I installed compiz to check the effects then uninstalled it but the effects are still there (i.e. desktop cube, wobbly windows etc) I want the GUI to be the way it was before the installation [07:22] hulo: yeah because of /dev etc... [07:22] hulo, and if you do do rysnc that way you will have to change the uuid after you do it so it will boot... thats who you'd do it via ssh [07:22] hulo: hrm.. [07:22] acoustyk: compiz is supposed to be installed by default [07:22] hey! i want to install a fresh jaunty-system - is it possible to make a list of programms that i probably use & that 'apt' can use to install ?? [07:22] pinion: got a favourite editor? Most people use gedit..., so e.g. gedit /var/lib/dpkg/status [07:23] ah shit [07:23] histo, Meson8925: everything is done locally (no remote) I thought rsync -av was a catchall scenario, with -x excluding mounted parts [07:23] ized, dpkg -l would list all installed applications [07:23] hey i'm trying to install eeebuntu basic and i ran into a problem on the usb menu when i tried to enter install eeebuntu i got a message labeled "Boot Loader" that says "/casper/vmlinuz" and all i could do was press ok and nothing happened has this happened to anyone else does anyone know how to fix it? thanks for your time any help greatly appreciated [07:23] Meson8925: that exclude thing will be useful though [07:23] I added the additional things in the add/remove manager then [07:23] Can somebody please assist me out with a problem I'm having? A package that went b0rk on me... I'm trying to reconfigure it or fix it. I can't purge it nor remove nor reinstall. The package is mobloquer along with moblock and other dependency packages. [07:23] hopefully I didnt do any damage when I uninstalled all compiz related things in synaptic [07:24] acoustyk: you could probably turn off all compositin effects right now by using 'metacity --replace' [07:24] - wow thats what i need - thanks ^^ [07:24] is there a gui for trickle? [07:24] hulo: you can just use cp to do it /proc and stuff would get recreated on boot. [07:24] losher: yep, that's what I use. ok I'm in [07:25] ripps, that did it [07:25] thank you muchly [07:25] now I have to restore compiz to its default state [07:25] pinion: each package has a paragraph. Look for a line that says "Package: flashplugin-nonfree" [07:25] if i pipe the dpkg-l command into a file, how can i use it to install from? [07:25] Hi all. Install 9.04 UMPC on asus eeepc 900. Glxgears = 18 fps. UNR work very slow. [07:25] I am planning to upgrade from Hardy to Intrepid(and then to Jaunty) now. Online though. Is this recommended or a fresh install is preferable? [07:25] n0s0r0g: what kind of video card? [07:25] losher: yep, Found it [07:25] acoustyk: remember to use the 'none' option in appearence->visual effects. [07:25] bliZZardz: yyyyyyyyyyyyyyeah, tha'ts betteeeer [07:26] oh crap ttthat bug agian [07:26] blizzardz I would recommend a fresh install it makes things easier [07:26] ruser: i know its better. but is the upgrade SAFE? [07:26] compiz is suppose to be installed why? [07:26] ized, it might not work out for you as it will install packages taht you dont need anymore. my recommendation is just start clean and install as you go [07:26] bliZZardz: Upgrading is safe, yes. [07:26] acoustyk: what kind of problems i can encounter if i do an upgrade? [07:26] ized, i would backup your /etc for sure though. [07:26] pinion: ok, cut the entire paragraph for flashplugin-nonfree, leaving just one blank line between the previous paragraph & the next... [07:26] histo, Intel GMA 910 or 915. [07:27] hmm, ok - so i do ... [07:27] Flannel: will u save me from the devil, if i am plunged into darkness? [07:27] blizzardz, all in all there are just alot of things that can go wrong i guess. I did an upgrade back in the day from gutsy to hardy and i vowed not to do it again [07:27] losher: ok, and save? [07:27] n0s0r0g: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Troubleshooting/IntelPerformance [07:27] pinion: exactly, save & then exit [07:27] losher: allrighty, done and done [07:27] I need help making my sound playback to work in jaunty [07:28] is Jaunty a LTS? [07:28] pinion: just to double check, run "diff /var/lib/dpkg/status /var/lib/dpkg/status.bak" [07:28] bliZZardz no [07:28] no [07:28] bliZZardz: No. Hardy is the most recent LTS (8.04) [07:28] gralco, did you check your advanced volume options? i just made a mistake with that earlier [07:28] Is 46 seconds from grub to login screen on Jaunty considered fast? [07:28] Flannel: am waiting for your seal. Shall i click the upgrade button? [07:28] losher: http://pastebin.com/m2a719aaa [07:28] acoustyk check what in the advanced volume options [07:29] jube: it takes 20sec on my Hardy. [07:29] jube, depends on the pc [07:29] gralco, check to see if anything is muted and volume is up [07:29] and also the s/w installed. [07:29] bliZZardz, its up to you dont wait for someone else's seal, i did it only minor issues at most [07:29] zhanx: what kind of issues? [07:29] acoustyk no nothing is [07:29] 20 seconds.. wow. i'd like it to be that fast but maybe my computer is too slow...

[07:51] henux: me too [07:51] @nullbyte: tar czvf $i.tgz [07:51] anyway, does it affect all ati cards or just old one? [07:51] ok.. Does anyone use Irrlicht? http://irrlicht.sourceforge.net/index.html [07:51] nullbyte: yeah what digitalchemist said :) [07:51] losher: Your wording is rather loose. [07:51] how long do you think my ban will last [07:51] @nullbyte: no ';' right after do [07:51] LeesyKate: i am a bit like Jaunty :P [07:51] Anyone know if there's a webpage that shows any known issues with Ubuntu 9.04? I'd like to do a little research before I dip into Ubuntu 9.04 [07:51] insteado f the tar -cvf i forget things already :) [07:51] henux: lol xD [07:51] LeesyKate: i feel that we are similar [07:52] illmortal: have an ati card? [07:52] henux: howso? [07:52] vox: normally tar will store just the link, not the files they point to, unless you use --dereference. You should be able to check exactly what will be dumped by using '-v' instead of '-x' [07:52] ripps: You do know that I'm using 9.04, right? [07:52] LeesyKate: smooth and cool [07:52] Nope, I'm using strictly GTX260, marko_d [07:52] lol [07:52] fair enough. [07:52] bobbyyu: yes, you might want to file a bug report, because I'm not seeing anything similar [07:53] ripps: his IP is german. maybe direct him to a localized channel? [07:53] What, report to Launchpad and use the dmesg? [07:53] Is it just me, or do you guys also find out Jaunty makes your laptop more silent? [07:53] noob question: someone sent me an email encrypted with their key, can someone please explain what this means. [07:53] LeesyKate: i wrote something nasty and i almost pressed the enter but i resisted XD [07:53] ruser: I think this is a bug and it needs to be reported [07:53] ripps: agreed [07:53] Hello Everybody [07:53] had a failover [07:53] Anyone know if there's any problems with Flash and Ubuntu 9.04?.... [07:53] Is there any contact converter? [07:54] bobbyyu: yes, file a bug at launchpad, provide the dmesg output there too [07:54] illmortal, working perfectly on mine. [07:54] i can not open java, sh, ...file [07:54] :) [07:54] That is the major roadblock in migrating to linux [07:54] illmortal: if you do it wrong.. yes :) [07:54] losher: cheers, i couldnt remember if tar actually followed links implicitly or not [07:54] The non-free Flash, Yondering? [07:54] OK. Thank you for your assistance, ripps and ruser. [07:54] bobbyyu: in the help menu in nautilus there should be an option that says 'Report a Problem', click that and follow the directions to file a bug report. [07:54] @raddy: what kind of contacts? [07:54] illmortal: install the .deb off there website [07:55] illmortal, correct. I downloaded the .deb from adobe.com. I'm using the default 32-bit kernel atm, until I can figure out a a way around my PAE problem. ;) [07:55] Nice, Criten. Thank you :D [07:55] any help opening Java files? [07:55] Oh that's another thing, how about on a 64 bit OS? [07:55] bullgard4: that's deliberate, since "transport" is meant to be a very general term, since SCSI (small computer systems interface) was a general mechanism for connecting peripherals of all kinds to computers, I don't know what else to tell you. The first cd recorders were all SCSI. === c00w-cRr is now known as angel_God [07:55] Jack sent a message [07:55] nullbyte: got it sorted? [07:55] riza [07:55] nama kamu siapa [07:56] illmortal: anytime, i havent tryed it on the 64 bit version... tell me how it goes [07:56] lemme guess, in order for my smb.conf to be read now, I will have to reboot?

[07:56] illmortal, haven't tried the 64-bit version. Yet. I may be driven to do that yet, and I'm dreading it.

I'd like to be able to have all of them while screwing around on Ubuntu :P [07:57] Hi [07:57] but make sure you have chmod +x whatever.bin [07:57] anyway brb [07:57] kenapa kamu hi [07:57] ubuntu_, you may need to make it executable first 'chmod u+x filename.bin' [07:58] Permission Denied?? [07:58] ubuntu_: try with sudo [07:58] ubuntu_: dp what jube said 'chmod u+x filename' [07:58] ruser: for i in * do; tar -czvf $i >gzip $i.tgz ; done [07:58] gives me the same error [07:58] do* [07:58] yea i did no luck [07:58] illmortal, i'm on the same page. PAE enabled would handle it no problem, but it's not enabled by default in the 32 bit kernel, and using the server kernel breaks my nvidia X server.

OK now i;m using jaunty RC, i download jaunty iso before the final release. do i need to download jaunty final or i just need to update everyday? [08:03] @happosade: man date [08:03] ruser: i am aware of that... but i don't have the need, and only 1gb of ram :) [08:03] gordonjcp: that's the ammount of software you not gonna have problems with under adm64 [08:03] oh, new to this xchat [08:03] happosade type: 'sudo ntpdate pool.ntp.org' [08:04] unitedpotsmokers: you downloaded the beta?

To make sure, type « sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade » in a console. [08:04] packer, are you sure that it's not somthing simple like the mic being muted? [08:04] gordonjcp: maybe that's the state for ubuntu. i'm a debian user [08:04] often that is the problem [08:04] oh, haha too fast, how can I chat here?

[08:05] gordonjcp: haha. try asking for support in here. lol [08:05] happosade, i would guess you need sudo to set the time on the system because it would affect all users and the whole system [08:05] igasoft@GigaSoftKDE:~$ chmod -x /media/disk/Temp/Oracle 11G/database/runInstaller.sh [08:05] chmod: cannot access `/media/disk/Temp/Oracle': No such file or directory [08:05] chmod: cannot access `11G/database/runInstaller.sh': No such file or directory [08:05] gigas [08:05] and body here me.

The package is mobloquer along with moblock and other dependency packages. I do not know what I should be doing now. [08:19] ruser: can't you postpone until you do? [08:19] is there any way for me to give that unallocated 4gib of space to /dev/sda5? [08:19] cousin_luigi: not gonna get it any time soon, so no point [08:19] Yondering, I have a really old computer so not sure. but you might want to retry it. I read on the forums that it works well now even with flash and skype [08:19] how much ram do you have? [08:20] @mobi-sheep: try with -f ? [08:20] jube, hmmm. Maybe I'll download the iso and give it another shot. [08:20] ruser: what kind of machine is that? [08:20] digitalchemist: Okay. [08:20] update manager icon help needed [08:20] cousin_luigi: laptop, amd64, want more details? [08:20] hey! which is the recommented fs-type for a fresh jaunty-installation (ext3/4) ??? [08:20] digitalchemist: I think I did awhile ago when the message displayed that. [08:20] notifier help that is [08:20] ruser: without optical reader? [08:20] jube, just seems like it'd be less of a hassle if they had PAE enabled by default. [08:21] cousin_luigi: with but i don't have spare media :) [08:21] is there anyway to strip hardcoded subs out of a dvd rip? [08:21] Yondering, what is PAE? [08:21] @mobi-sheep: what kind of error message are you getting? ... and what is the command you're running? [08:21] jube, physical address extension. It's how the server kernel enables memory beyond 3.2gb. [08:21] ized: ext4 is faster, ext3 is more reliable [08:21] Yondering, how much ram do you have? [08:21] jube, 8gb currently in this box. [08:21] cousin_luigi: anyhow that's not the point. i still need to make my boot larger [08:22] cousin_luigi: and traditional resizing not wokring out for me [08:22] ruser: err...I had to install debian via network on headless servers a few times, but it doesn't seem appropriate in your case [08:22] !flood [08:22] pastebin is a service to post multiple-lined texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu.com (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the channel topic) [08:22] cousin_luigi: i wont' be able to PXE anyhow [08:22] : ok - & can i use it in combination with a seperate ext3-home partition? [08:22] cousin_luigi: i've done a lot of randome things in my life :) [08:23] random* [08:23] izad: yes you can. i've tried it with jaunty, i have my / in ext and /home in ext4 [08:23] ized: yes, you can have a ext3 home partition and an ext4 rest partition === Guest10431 is now known as Salajadin [08:23] can anyone help me? I need to give 4gb of unallocated space to my ubuntu partition. see gparted screenshot - http://i41.tinypic.com/5a32h.jpg [08:24] , : super - thanks [08:24] ok I"m going to bed, spent too much time chasing down silly gremlins, good night / morning all [08:24] Does anybody know why the 3D chat program, Roomancer by Moove, closes after starting up with Wine? [08:24] Guest29191: i suggest get out and pick up some ladies :) [08:25] I'm actually waiting for the right one, thanks. [08:25] Guest29191: #winehq will probably be able to help better [08:25] hey , roomancer IS my lady [08:25] ruser: not necessary [08:25] CD Check of ubuntu-umpc flash said: "error in 1 file". I tried twice. MD5SUM of image is correct. [08:25] Pipers, You know it's a 3d chat program, right? [08:25] so. cousin_luigi, any ideas on the grub-install? [08:26] Yondering, 8G!wow. well, if you do have the time, maybe try the 64 bit version of jaunty live cd and see if the things you need work now properly [08:26] n0s0r0g: corrupt image? try downloading a new one [08:26] dlozarie, you're going to need to boot from a linux cd and use gparted from that to do this, so you can leave /dev/sda5 unmounted for the operations. [08:26] Salajadin, md5sum is correct! [08:26] Does anyone here have a PE6650 box? [08:26] yep [08:26] eventhough md5 cheksum is correct [08:26] mobi-sheep: I fixed one of these earlier tonight. I think /var/lib/dpkg/status gets corrupted. You should be able to edit this file by hand and remove the entry for the offending programs. This should allow you to reinstall it. [08:26] Yondering, ah, I see. I'm running Jaunty right now but I have a live CD of Hardy Heron with me. would that work or would I need a Jaunty live CD? [08:27] anyone knowing how to fix the no sound problem with amarok 2 ? [08:27] Salajadin, try on 2 different flash drives [08:27] cherva: ask in #kubuntu [08:27] losher: Thanks. I'll look into the file. [08:27] but still the same image right> [08:27] dlozarie, your hardy disk should work fine, but if I were you I'd download a gparted livecd and use that. The hardy disk image has a rather old release of gparted on it. [08:27] try downloading a new one or from another source? [08:27] natschil: yes google has some examples [08:27] anyone have any good themes? [08:27] md5checksum is for file verification [08:27] switch10: ask in #ubuntu-offtopic [08:28] Yondering, OK. Will try to download the gparted live cd. thanks for the help! [08:28] anybody know of a encoder for ubuntu that does h263? [08:28] dlozarie, np, good luck. [08:28] histo: for what? reiserfs -> ext4 or ext3->ext4 [08:28] sn00p-: ffmpeg or mencoder? [08:28] ziroday, i'm looking for the codec acutally [08:28] Yondering, how about Gparted on USB? [08:28] sn00p-: what container/file format? [08:29] .avi [08:29] ziroday: I'm using ubuntu and if I ask in #kubuntu they may not have my problem because they have a package i miss allready preinstalled [08:29] dlozarie, a bootable usb image from the gparted page? that'll be fine. [08:29] Salajadin, somebody in #ubuntu-ru channel has the same problem. [08:29] md5 is like a files fingerprint to identify it's authenticity, even if it has gangreen it will still have the same identity [08:30] sn00p-: you can try install ubuntu-restricted-extras, that will get the lot [08:30] or something like that [08:30] cherva: you shouldn't have [08:30] Hey all [08:30] someone please help me get alsa working in jaunty [08:30] Upgrading to 9.04 broke my ndiswrapper, so I dont have an internet connection any more :-/ [08:31] dlozarie, but from looking at this, the operations you want to perform on your drive.. move /dev/sda2 to the end, extend /dev/sda3 to encompass the free space, move your swap partition, and then extend /dev/sda5. Plan on it taking quite a while to complete. [08:31] try downloading a new image if that doesnt work then i dont know ^^ [08:31] is there any way to get ndiswrapper working again in 9.04? [08:31] does this dvdplayback bug have a solution at this time? I am finding lots of bug and forum post but no solution. any ideas? [08:31] Yondering, got it. thanks again [08:31] johnflux: does lsmod | grep ndiswrapper show ndiswrapper loaded? [08:31] johnflux: also what wireless card? [08:32] ziroday: I have to run upstairs and down again to check, what with connection broken .. It's a strange atheros card (I bought it in Japan) [08:32] does anyone know how to make a connection to an Adhoc network using ubuntu? I can see my connection, however it hangs on connection, other machines connect. [08:32] folks, I am unable to checkout some file using svn client. I am getting the following error svn: REPORT request failed on '/repository/webkit/!svn/vcc/default' [08:32] svn: REPORT of '/repository/webkit/!svn/vcc/default': 400 Bad Request (http://svn.webkit.org) [08:32] okay, let's see if my setup worked === pipers is now known as pipers1 [08:33] any idea why "mysql -v" works without sudo in ubuntu and requires sudo in debian? [08:33] dows any one know how to configure svn client [08:33] johnflux: hmm, then you might be in luck and not need to use ndiswrapper anymore. You can get the model number with lspci | grep -i networking [08:33] good morning people :) [08:33] johnflux: but I will need lsmod | grep ndiswrapper as well [08:33] techouse maybe the package for mysql -v is located on a different directory in ubuntu and debian [08:33] hi, where does update-manager save a log about the upgrade-process (to jaunty) [08:33] Salajadin: nop [08:34] /usr/bin both [08:34] johnflux: also this will be easier if you can plug your machine into ethernet or something similar [08:34] techouse, maybe you have a user with the same name in ubuntu, but on debian the mysql user is root? [08:34] yep that's prolly it or [08:34] you are in a root terminal? [08:34] nop [08:34] hi my fp reader is locked by an uknown app,how do i free it? [08:35] wait...i'll try [08:35] I've tried pretty much anything and cannot get jaunty flash plugin not to freeze firefox when going to another page [08:35] shadeslayer: stop the app [08:35] hi. in ubuntu 9.04 when i click on taskbar it takes some time to register the click. why is that? i am using kde. [08:35] ziroday: cant see it [08:35] if you are in root terminal then you dont need sudo [08:35] nascentmind: #kubuntu is probably best [08:35] it is the sudo terminal [08:36] Is there anyone that can help get flash to work properly [08:36] its probably a background process [08:36] C-S-B, which flash plugin are you using? [08:36] ziroday: tf-tool --acquire says it could not claim the device [08:36] sudo apt-get flashplugin-nonfree? [08:36] ziroday, ok [08:36] shadeslayer: try prepend sudo [08:36] I've tried from the adobe site, the flashplugin-nonfree and the adobe-flashplugin -installed manually and by package [08:36] ziroday: same thind [08:36] Im using 9.04, with a Nvidia 7600GT PCIEx video card, hooked to it is a Sony FW900 CRT that does not provide EDID info. My problem is that I cannot get the correct resolutions to appear in either nvidia-settings or Prefs-Display; despite adding modlines and the modes to xorg.conf anyone have any suggestions? [08:36] *thing [08:37] shadeslayer: then I don't know :) [08:37] have you tried a restart? [08:37] has anyone ever got gmail working in evolution please? [08:37] yep [08:37] i need server addresses [08:37] also my numpad is not working [08:37] jube: ^ sorry did prefix with ame [08:37] brb [08:37] just need to set pop3 and smtp [08:37] ziroday: ndiswrapper was not loaded [08:38] ziroday: I tried loading it manually (modprobe) but iwconfig etc dont show any change [08:38] C-S-B, I just went to youtube in firefox, it told me missing plugins, then I chose the shockwave adobe plugin and it worked... sorry this is probably no help [08:38] have you tried modprobing ndiswrapper? [08:38] @olskolirc: http://mail.google.com/support/bin/answer.py?answer=78799 [08:39] Olskolirc, yes I have gmail in evolution. I use IMAP so that I can keep everything the same between my local copy and gmail [08:39] ziroday: Its an atheros AR2413 [08:39] I cant update from 8.10 to 9.04 due to disk space, what should i do [08:39] Salajadin: me? [08:40] Olskolirc, you have to first enable IMAP (or POP3) in gmail before anything will work [08:40] billybigrigger: delete some files? :-) Or do a fresh install? [08:40] if there is no option i might as well ruin my uptime and restart [08:41] in GMAIL, go to Settings -> "Forwarding and POP3/IMAP" [08:41] hi all, i have a question. Is there an easy way to update brasero in 8.10 to 2.26? [08:42] obtain the .deb and install it BePhantom [08:42] im trying to install ubuntu on a toshiba satelite A215 and everytime I get pass the language screen, i drop into busybox, can anyone help me? [08:42] how can i bind in a seperate hdd as /home into a new jaunty-installation without deleting the files on it??? [08:42] BePhantom, www.getdeb.com [08:42] anyone know how to get the NVidia driver to bypass all its video mode checks and just use the modes specified in xorg.conf? [08:43] ized, you need to set a mount point in fstab for the new /home [08:43] darthanubis, checking [08:43] chocolatt, sounsd like some kind of hardware issue [08:43] BePhantom, search for if they have a PPA [08:43] : can i use a gui for it? [08:43] darthanubis, in getdeb? [08:43] darthanubis: well the computer works, i have vista currently installed... it's just ubuntu doesn't want to get passed that... [08:43] ized, a quick google search found this article about doing it: http://ubuntu.wordpress.com/2006/01/29/move-home-to-its-own-partition/ [08:44] BePhantom, enable proposed and backports in synaptic [08:44] what packages do I need to remove to completely remove openjdk? [08:44] BePhantom, 1st google hit http://www.getdeb.net/ [08:44] ized, might be a way to do it with a gui, but it's a little bit complicated and could prevent you from logging in if you do it wrong so best research it carefully first [08:44] so anyone know a way to maybe increase my compatibility so I can install ubuntu on my laptop? [08:45] ljuwaidah: sudo apt-get remove openjdk-* [08:45] darthanubis, ok backports and proposed activated [08:45] thanks DERBYSIEGER-icer [08:45] chocolatt, I had similar issues, only to find out it was a BIOS setting [08:45] : ok - thank you :) [08:45] ok bye [08:45] my last channel resort b4 i go to spotchat pimpmymint [08:45] I didn't know you can use * with apt-get [08:45] darthanubis: what bios setting? what laptop model? [08:45] ljuwaidah: np [08:46] how can i suspend a machine from command line/ [08:46] chocolatt, its a desktop. I'm not sure the setting I reset the bios. I think it was APIC something I enabled in Windows nforce bios settings on a 680i board. [08:47] later :) [08:47] darthanubis: okay yeah, should I put the boot mode in noapic or something like that? [08:47] chocolatt, can't hurt to try [08:47] mattgyver, did you try 'suspend' ? [08:47] ... nope... [08:48] seemed too easy === sean is now known as Guest41161 [08:48] Hello World [08:48] suspend doesn't work on my computer (it won't come out of it) so I didn't try it but maybe you can and it will work [08:48] darthanubis, is it safe to install proposed and backports? [08:48] darthanubis: when running the boot in verbose mode, it drops into busybox when it's trying to load drivers for my r8169 gigabit ethernet card [08:49] nope, didnt come out [08:49] BePhantom, I use them for what it's worth. But there should be a pop up telling you the details [08:49] chocolatt, , that sucks [08:49] mattgyver, does suspend from the upper right hand menu work properly? [08:50] darthanubis: is that nic known to be incompatible? [08:50] yeah it does, im just testing a program [08:50] mattgyver, try "pm-suspend" instead... [08:50] chocolatt, I have no idea. Worth a gogle to check the ubuntu hcl? [08:51] Hi. [08:51] Can someone explain me on how to install Sopcast on Ubuntu? [08:51] jube, that did the job, thanks :) [08:51] darthanubis: mm i'm googling, but i don't see anything with my kind of symptoms... im going to try noapic [08:51] darthanubis, thanks, installing now [08:51] mattgyver: ok, good. [08:51] no prob [08:52] BePhantom, np [08:52] mouse doesnt come back to life though after waking [08:52] hello world [08:53] mattgyver, hmm... when you run that command, did you put sudo in front? (I'm not sure if it's required but maybe it is) === RoozbehOnline is now known as Roozbeh|Away [08:53] And other prob: I first installed Ubuntu using daemon tools( what i shouldn't have done) so it crashed, I couldn't start Vista anymore, or Ubuntu) Then i burned the Live CD and installed Ubuntu. Any idea how te recover Vista? Because using the Vista installation CD and using repair doesn't work [08:53] jube, yes [08:53] ill try one more time. just to make certain [08:54] mattgyver, there seem to be a lot of parameters for that command, maybe try: "sudo pm-suspend --auto-quirks" [08:54] mattgyver, that will try to fix any specific issues with your particular hardware [08:55] ill try that [08:55] hello how do we know if we are hacked [08:55] mattgyver, also, there is another command, "sudo s2ram" [08:55] that one might work as well [08:55] okay, ill try that after --auto-quirks [08:55] So, what's the story with Users that have older ATI cards and require more performance than what the open source drivers can provide? [08:55] I first installed Ubuntu using daemon tools( what i shouldn't have done) so it crashed, I couldn't start Vista anymore, or Ubuntu) Then i burned the Live CD and installed Ubuntu. Any idea how te recover Vista? Because using the Vista installation CD and using repair doesn't work [08:56] thank god ext4 reboots fast! [08:56] because my computer is changing subnet mask by iteslf so i am afraid i am being hacked [08:56] Hello Everybody [08:56] Does anyone know what is going on with the ATI drivers? [08:57] i am on ubuntu this os is new to me how to make sure of security on ubuntu. i think i am being hacked [08:57] Hi [08:57] How installing nVidia Proprietary Driver in ubuntu this much painless? [08:57] candra [08:57] still no mouse w/quirks [08:57] darthanubis: okay, i disabled my onboard lan (under bios) and now it says: begin: mounting root file system... [5.203613]ohci1394 blah blah blah blah blah blah Max Packet=[2048] IR/IT contexts=[4/8] [08:57] lopin i think something is going on with all drivers not just ati [08:57] noone can help?? [08:57] Are they installing gcc, make etc and kernel source by default? [08:57] rancha I know that the old ATI cards are no longer officially supported... [08:58] Bman: keep asking, hopefully someone will see the question, it's dday+1 afterall, lots of questions :D [08:58] INDONESIA....INDONESIA... [08:58] Bman, did you get past partitioning before you crashed? [08:58] And, by old, I mean anything that I can actually afford... [08:58] On my new Jaunty system, there's this new feature "System Testing". It dosen't work. It just comes up opening System Testing and closes. [08:58] ...ill try s2ram now [08:58] How do I get it to work [08:58] ? [08:58] hei sobat how are you [08:58] mattgyver, ok. hope it works [08:58] Can anybody shed some light? [08:58] hi, can I somehow enable tabs for groups in buddy list in pidgin 2.5.5? [08:58] #pidgin [08:58] Lopin: the answer is hardy ... :/ there's nothing ubuntu can do [08:59] woops [08:59] How do I share my mobile internet in jaunty? [08:59] raddy, what? [08:59] wkerzend: you need a routor [08:59] raddy if theyre not installed then try doing build-essentials [08:59] mattgyver, yes, but problem is that doesn't mean my HDD was formatted, because I got two HDD and I got no idea on which I installed Ubuntu because at that moment I didn't know what sda and sdb was.. I was working with C: and D: all my life so.. When i go to places, Ubuntu only sees one HDD,not the other one, but I can't open it... [08:59] If you are wid three, go to three.co.uk and have a look [08:59] lazermouse: no i dont. Im sure ubuntu does nat. [09:00] well, do you have a wireless adapter? [09:00] Salajadin: Yondering: is build-requires and kernel source installed by default. nvidia driver installation was so smooth :) [09:00] no [09:00] inspite of lack of internet access [09:00] Salajadin: then? [09:00] lazermouse: thx [09:00] bman, more than likely sdb is your d drive, is that what you installed ubuntu to [09:00] ? [09:00] raddy, no, I don't believe they are. Yeah, the nvidia X server install is pretty sweet now. Just wish it'd work with the gd server kernel. ;) [09:01] your very welcome :) [09:01] install build-essentials [09:01] you need gcc right? [09:01] and other make stuff [09:01] i mean you're very welcome :D [09:01] mattgyver, if that doesn't work, you can try, "sudo /etc/acpi/sleep.sh" (there seems to be so many different ways of doing this!) [09:01] jube, im amazed. [09:01] mattgyver, I don't know, it was 6 o' clock in the morning.. I really was stupid [09:02] hi - i am using EVOLUTION... the problem is WHITE TEXT on WHITE GROUND - how can i change it in evolution itself? - tnx [09:02] its curious that my mouse doesnt come back to life [09:02] If I use 2.8.18 it has the ath5k driver which seems to recongise my AR2413 card - I see it in iwconfig etc, but I cant connect to any network [09:02] mattgyver, is it a USB mouse? [09:02] Salajadin: I didn't do anything, the nvidia driver built kernel module fine. i didn't even had network access for downloading those packages [09:02] No offensie to the ubuntu community, but I don't like that new feature Computer Janitor [09:02] maybe it accidentally ate mouse poison [09:02] Nope, its a laptop touchpad mouse [09:02] it removed a lot of my stuff [09:02] bman, the only thing i can think of doing is running a live cd of gparted and taking a look at your partitions to see whats left [09:02] lazermouse: it cant be disabled? [09:02] how to get flash again after upgrading to 9.04 ? [09:02] it can [09:02] then you can better determine where to go from there. [09:02] i think [09:03] I havent got my head round it yet === dan__ is now known as dannz [09:03] and when i upgraded, I think it might have removed some of my packages as well [09:03] mattgyver, no idea what gparted is but i'll have a look on the net and report to you later allright^^ thanks mate [09:04] bman, check sourceforge, its just a partitoning tool [09:04] ok [09:04] mattgyver, did "sudo /etc/acpi/sleep.sh" have the same mouse doesn't come back problem? [09:04] My ubuntu 9.04 constantly wants to do a partial upgrade. Running the partial upgrade doesn't get rid of it. What now? [09:04] one new feature I do like however is the notification erea. [09:04] It is sleek and clean === MooKow is now known as LordKow [09:05] Is there any way to enable the old 'lock screen on disconnect' function from remote desktop? [09:05] jube, im testing s2ram, i had to install something first [09:05] does Jaunty have a new improved network manager? [09:05] ri [09:05] oh ok. good luck! [09:06] s2ram same thing ';\ [09:06] time for sleep.sh [09:06] I wonder why there are so many ways.... [09:06] this is crazy.. [09:06] mattgyver, there's probably some parameter that we're missing for your mouse that if we figured out, they'd all work [09:06] lazermouse, the UI is a little different, but other than that, no [09:06] your probably right [09:07] tut tut [09:07] lazermouse, i lied, they are the same [09:07] i was thinking of something else [09:07] even more tut tut :D [09:08] It's just i failed in getting my friend to change to ubuntu [09:08] it was the network manager [09:08] jube, sleep.sh didnt even suspend the computer [09:08] is it safe to upgrade Ubuntu in Wubi from Generation 9 to Generation 10 (2008.10 to 2009.04) [09:08] ok... i am back everyone. I tried it with jaunty now and still got the "kernel panic - can't mount root fs on unknown block" error... again, it is a dell dimension 6400i with a 2.6GHz P4 [09:09] reply in pm please [09:09] mattgyver, hmmm... i'm basically out of ideas. i'm trying to figure out what the gnome suspend button does because you said that works.. but having trouble figuring out what that button is linked to [09:10] jube, let me double check that one.. [09:10] * jackjohnson sucks balls - not! [09:10] Hello Everybody [09:10] and here is something weird. When I go to the grub bootloader (I also have vista installed in seperste partition) after loading... please wait, it comes up with "FATEL" errors [09:10] !info gnuplot [09:10] gnuplot (source: gnuplot): A command-line driven interactive plotting program. In component universe, is optional. Version 4.2.4-6 (jaunty), package size 1 kB, installed size 20 kB [09:10] I am using New-Wave theme in ubunu [09:10] i am banned from -ops and why am i banned from offtopic [09:10] Ubuntu [09:10] jube, even behaves different, asks me to log back in after a suspend from that.. i like! [09:10] mattgyver, i'm on the sourceforge site now. Can i download to live cd and start it from my pc? Like normally i could have installed Ubuntu withouth burning the live CD to a disk by using wubi.. I can burn it, but have to change pc's and stuff... [09:11] Menu entries are hardly visible in OOo :( [09:11] !upgrade [09:11] For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes - see also http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/upgrading [09:11] jube, ... no mouse go figure. [09:11] Is this issue raised? [09:11] bman, are you already on the machine with ubuntu? [09:11] or is this a different machine? [09:11] jackjohnson: I may not be an opp, but I do however know that you should NOT discuss bans in the main channel [09:11] or in offtopic [09:12] lazermouse: bans are offtopic for offtopic? :-D [09:12] yep, lol :D [09:12] does anyone know what the 'can't mount root fs on unknown block' means? I keep getting it, and I know it can't be the disk as it has happened on a ton of them and all different versions (i have tried 7.10, 8.04, 8.10, 9.04) [09:12] OOo Menus are not viewable when New-Wave theme used [09:12] mattgyver, yes [09:12] if you want to discuss bans, go to #ubuntu-ops , and discuss it there [09:12] Anybody noticed it? [09:12] mattgyver, that's too bad still no mouse. there are some log files you might want to check: /var/log/pm-suspend.log... maybe something about why the mouse fails in there? [09:13] mattgyver, using sort of XChat right now as irc client ^^ [09:13] lazermouse: didnt he just say he was banned from there [09:13] bman, your on the machine right? === ifroog__ is now known as [ifr0g] [09:13] did he... oh yea [09:13] jube, looks like its a known bug since 7.10 though [09:13] yes [09:13] mattgyver, yes [09:13] Anybody listening to me??/ [09:13] how do I run a partial upgrade from the command line? the gui upgrader just quits with no feedback. [09:14] :D [09:14] jube, Oh, i thought it was different. Open System>Administration>partition editor [09:14] mattgyver, yeah i saw people having this problem too with no solution... but the difference is your computer suspends properly from the gnome menu so it SHOULD work from command line too if you use the same command [09:14] why does the weather-util give me error 404 when i try to get forecast? [09:14] jube, no after a proper suspend it didnt work either [09:14] <[ifr0g]> Morning Guys :) [09:14] mornin [09:15] Anybody listening to me???? [09:15] mattgyver, http://gparted.sourceforge.net/livecd.php on this one I can just install it? [09:15] mattgyver, oh................ i thought it worked from the menu but not the command line... [09:15] jube, i thought so too, i was wrong i guess.. darn [09:15] bman, you dont need to isntall it, its already on ubuntu [09:15] bman, System>Administration>Partition Editor === etoipi is now known as etotheipi [09:16] mattgyver, well, maybe check that log file when you have a chance and maybe there is a hint in there. otherwise i'm out of ideas. sorry!

[09:19] bbman, see PM [09:20] hi [09:21] okay, so i had some problems with my audio device in ubuntu 9.04 on my laptop, and i got the instruction to install oss sound driver instead of the alsa [09:22] robson: it's probably looking for the weather station code instead of the city name. Try 'weather msp -f' === Krishna is now known as schumy [09:22] and i need some help how to do that [09:22] djayhogan: nice thanks === schumy is now known as schumy-- [09:23] yesterday i did dome modifications on my system [09:23] so my alsa driver is probably gone [09:23] actually i blacklistad the alsa driver [09:23] -listed* [09:24] and now i have null output (pulseaudio mixer) [09:24] so i need some help installing the OSS drivers [09:25] I think I installed ifuse right... But I don't know how to use it [09:25] when you install ubuntu, that is all done over flash, correct? or does it use the hard drive. Basically, where is it trying to load the root fs that is referenced in the "kernel panic - unable to mount root fs to unknown block"? what is unknown? [09:25] (by flash, i meant RAM [09:26] hello xchat not working . The program 'xchat-gnome' received an X Window System error.

[09:27] * matholum is starting to think he is invisible.... [09:27] hmmmm [09:28] sprockets2000: Canonical? Why do you ask? [09:28] 9.04 can't be 138k as the upgrade tool says ? [09:29] its a downgrade from xp... i was stoked for it [09:29] but it runs pretty bad, is it still beta or released as stable? [09:29] i think xbuntu would be a better choice than it to be honest === benoit_ is now known as Guest80248 [09:31] I need an ifuse tutorial LOL [09:31] matholum: not totally sure what you're doing [09:31] can i freely delete contents of /tmp ? [09:31] sierinjs_lv: not entirely [09:31] sierinjs_lv: no [09:31] gordonjcp: i am trying to install ubuntu [09:31] what then i can delete? [09:31] sierinjs_lv: a lot of things keep fairly important stuff in /tmp and if you delete them then "interesting" things will happen [09:32] sierinjs_lv: if you feel like rebooting and you're bored, go right ahead [09:32] sierinjs_lv: why you want to delete something? [09:32] will it be something undo'able? [09:32] matholum: okay [09:32] btw anyone have a hp mini 1000 [09:32] i like to delete [09:32] sierinjs_lv: maybe, maybe not [09:32] sierinjs_lv: in theory... you can delete the contents when the particular linux os is not running (ie from within a livecd) [09:32] sierinjs_lv: it's "undoable" in the sense that you can always reinstall from scratch ;-) [09:32] xD [09:32] sierinjs_lv: mostly /tmp is used for temporary state in the running system [09:33] sierinjs_lv: and quite often it gets zapped on a reboot *anyway* [09:33] cool [09:33] ;D [09:33] sprockets2000: yes, i think someone here has a hp mini 1000 [09:33] me just haves feeling like in win, that it's full of shi* all the time, n i have to delete it ;D [09:34] sierinjs_lv: the only bad thing could be that deleting something important to a particular app causes it to go mental and damage other things [09:34] Oll Klear [09:35] so can anyone help me installing oss? [09:35] oss? hfjgggth [09:35] Szaboka: why would you want to? [09:35] Szaboka: urgh, OSS [09:35] xD [09:35] when I try to upgrade to 9.04 it only wants to remove lilo and upgrade firefox [09:35] Szaboka: you'd better have a good reason for that [09:35] !upgrading [09:35] For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes - see also http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/upgrading [09:35] Szaboka: a good reason for wanting OSS is that you have been frozen in ice since 1996 [09:36] most packages these days are DROPPING their OSS support because it has long been obsoleted [09:36] hi, my Jaunty does not show updates notification icon when updates are available, also does'not checks for updates automatically.

[10:02] i am running windows xp and i want to install ubuntu. im planning on using gparted to partition my hard drive. [10:02] there should be a section for global keyboard shortcuts [10:03] can i do that with windows already on my hard drive/ [10:03] ljsoftnet: okay y eah, your way works :) both ways, editting fstab, and using ntfs-config will work, thanks a lot :) [10:03] *? [10:03] maodun: i tell you, i got that info to install oss instead... didnt really know that it's a sh't actually [10:03] i couldn't find anything there superwad... [10:03] gordonjcp: still no luck... i haven't tried the other cd-rom though... i wish i knew what was unknown in that error message [10:03] maodun: and now i dont have alsa in the playback properties [10:03] geekening, you can make room for you installation of ubuntu during install [10:03] maodun: actually at the mixers [10:03] does anyone have problem playing mp3s with amarok on 9.04? [10:03] how can i remove the black borders which are appearing when i minimize an application ? [10:04] defrysk i read that its better to partition manually before installing [10:04] because i want to have a fat32 shared partition. is that possible? [10:04] maodun: "device" sorry - there is 'playback: null otput' [10:04] yesterday I was trying to upgrade fromt 8.10 to 9.04 but the updated informed me that my video card would not be supported anymore (ATI Radeon 1600 pro). Should I wait? [10:04] maodun: "device" sorry - there is 'playback: null output' ** [10:04] superwad: it's the same as Alt+Space, only it pops up right under the pointer [10:04] gordonjcp: is it possible to make an install partition and boot from the HD to install? that'd be cool... [10:04] geekening, if you have a partition for ubuntu ready you can choose that partition during install [10:05] geekening, ubuntu will format it for you in the filesystem needed [10:05] Szaboka: hmm, I don't really know how to help you much beyond telling you to try to be sure all the necessary alsa stuff is installed and then to configure everything to use that. sorry, and good luck! [10:05] matholum: hmm, don't see why not [10:05] matholum: do it the same way you would a USB stick [10:05] defrysk how can i make it so that windows and ubuntu can share a parition? i want a third one to store all my mp3s and documents [10:05] maodun, can you help me in Installing all those ALSA stuff please? [10:05] matholum: you might need to do something clever with the boot loader [10:06] maodun, so where from and how to? [10:06] veefwoar: sorry, i got nothing [10:06] gordonjcp: the boot loader in the bios, or with the ubuntu install [10:06] geekening, ubuntu can resize a space before installing [10:06] Phoenix87: sudo apt-get install xserver-xorg-video-radeon [10:06] someone here who uses mac, can you please give me a yell, i need help [10:06] !anyone | holdenss [10:06] in regards to uninstalling ubuntu off a macbook [10:07] wtv: would that give me full hardware support? [10:07] geekening i have never had probs with resizing a partition, but results may vary [10:07] hello, all [10:07] defrysk thank you [10:07] can help someone? [10:07] the menu bar is without any decoration [10:08] i want to remove the black borders which appear when you minimize an application .. is there any solution ? [10:08] Phoenix87: for a better explanation, see this http://wiki.cchtml.com/index.php/Ubuntu_Jaunty_Installation_Guide [10:08] please help me to install my video card !!! [10:08] wtv: thank you ;) [10:08] would anybody be able to help me configure X to work properly with my new display? [10:09] Would anyone happen to know how to set APT proxy to automatic configuration? [10:09] Szaboka: sorry, i'm really not an expert on linux sound issues - i just resolved one myself and thought i might be able to help if you had the same problems. but google around for 'ubuntu no sound' and you should find a couple of pages that recommend loads of packages to make sure you have installed and tell you configs to check [10:09] gordonjcp: well i will look into either re-flashing my bios so I have the boot to usb option, or getting it to boot the install over HD... so, I guess I will get off of here and start my research. ^_^ [10:09] !anybody | superwad [10:09] Hi... anyone know how to fix Totem/gstreamer in 9.04 so that it plays OGMs properly? [10:09] gordonjcp: thanks for your help [10:09] maodun, thank you for your help :) [10:09] defrysk: grammar help? [10:09] Szaboka: wish i could help more. good luck! [10:10] does anyone have problem playing mp3s with amarok on 9.04? [10:10] I have a usb drive which seems to be malfunctioning, are there any lowlevel tools I can use to reset it? [10:10] superwad, botcrah ;S [10:10] sh [10:10] usb stick [10:10] i see [10:10] my question still stands [10:10] is there any person who is able to help me properly configure X [10:11] Did anyone actually ever figure out what was going on with the absurdly slow file transfer? Best I gathered was that it was a kernel issue... [10:11] superwad, ask a specific question [10:11] Chased me through Hardy and Intrepid... eying Jaunty, and wondering if it was fixed... [10:11] Phoenix87: that link i gave you tells you to install it manually. if you want it to be painfree, use the command : sudo apt-get install xorg-driver-fglrx [10:11] I have an ATI rage 128 pro agp 4x and I have no video acceleration [10:12] !skype [10:12] ubotu is sleeping [10:12] #freenode [10:12] sorry === pragad7 is now known as hercules [10:12] fine, i'll elaborate. i recently acquired a new widescreen monitor. X is choosing not to display in the native resolution. it's instead adopted 1280x1024 (1920x1080 native). my xorg.conf file states 1680x1050 is my first choice, but it's not using that. the display settings in kubuntu is not showing that option, and my display resolutions are appearing out of order. [10:13] ok,isnt skype available for ubuntu 9.04 [10:13] i'd like to get this display working at the proper resolution [10:13] wtv: thanks for the advice. Usually I used the "restricted driver" way. I was hoping to be able to do the same in jaunty [10:14] superwad: depending on my system/videocrds - on some machines i MUST install the proper ati or nvidia drivers for the system to set teh res properly. also i found that if you are using VGA or DVI. always use DVI if you can. [10:14] Phoenix87: i wonder why restricted drivers isn't working in your pc. [10:14] superwad: what exactly bothers you ? [10:14] dr_willis: i'm using DVI. the nvidia drivers are installed [10:14] Hi.. is it possible to upgrade 8.10 to jaunty [10:14] hans: it bothers me that on my widescreen monitor, i need to display fullscreen resolutions to not have the picture stretched :( [10:14] rubydiamond: yes [10:14] rubydiamond: yes [10:15] superwad: You did run that little control panel tool to allow the users to select their own res? perhaps its gotten set to use the lower res some how. [10:15] shadeslayer: but it would remove all my existing installations .. like ruby [10:15] Hi, I've got unattended-upgrades installed and modified 10periodic, 50unattended-upgrades in apt.conf.d and it's working fine but I'm wondering how exactly is it run? I can't seem to find a cronjob or anything for it. [10:15] wtv: it is working on 8.10 [10:15] it's little dangerous [10:15] rubydiamond: nope,you can use update manager [10:15] dr_willis: which control panel tool? i never set anything through that tool; i only viewed settings. [10:16] I'm trying to compile a gtk programg, gcc base.c -o base `pkg-config --cflags --libs gtk+-2.0`, but I get this compilation error. Package gtk+-2.0 was not found in the pkg-config search path. [10:16] shadeslayer: will it update all distro and softwares .. [10:16] or just core [10:16] gtk+-2.0 si this correct? [10:16] is [10:16] spaceninja, you need the -dev package [10:16] rubydiamond: i think everything [10:16] Did you know that Jackalope Jaunty is the closest thing you can get to Skynet? >:}~ [10:17] shadeslayer: then it's a prob [10:17] I have net connection with 300Kbps [10:17] it would take much time [10:17] superwad: somewhere in the menus theres a icon to allow users to set their own res. [10:17] spaceninja: as joaopinto stated you probably don't have the dev package installed i.e. libgtk2.0-dev [10:17] !register > mobi-sheep__ [10:17] I have an dell M782p and I have no driver for it [10:17] superwad: ive seen when switching monitors and stuff around. some times a user gets theirs set to a imcorrect red. [10:17] superwad: ive seen when switching monitors and stuff around. some times a user gets theirs set to a imcorrect resolution. [10:18] ok thanks [10:18] superwad: system/preferences/screen resolution : with the proper driver for your card installed, you will see all possible resolutions === mobi-sheep__ is now known as mobi-sheep [10:18] how do i get kde in ubuntu [10:18] hercules: sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop [10:18] dr_willis: it might have happened, but when i first started up the new monitor without restarting the computer, the resolution was still off [10:18] sudo apt-get install kde-desktop [10:19] max is 1024x728 but in windows i can fix too 1024x1280/85 Hz [10:19] i cant find skype in my cache :O === due_ is now known as mrdue [10:19] i'm pretty sure i have the correct display drivers installed. i went through all that before and it was working fine [10:19] Nevermind, looks like I've figured it out. apt itself does have a daily cronjob, /etc/cron.daily/apt [10:20] Hello Everybody [10:20] hi raddy [10:20] brb, testing new settings [10:20] how do you mount a network drive? [10:20] Hi... anyone know how to fix Totem/gstreamer in 9.04 so that it plays OGMs properly? [10:20] Anybody noticed that OOo menus's text color is now viewable in new-wave theme? [10:20] n/m [10:20] anyone?? [10:21] hay chazco [10:21] Hello [10:21] Hah, hey haggisbasheruk :D [10:21] I have big problem with new 9.04 [10:21] hows uni going chazco [10:21] thanks shadeslayer [10:21] I dont have ó character in my system, I only see - [10:21] Fine, i'm over on the jlime channel atm [10:21] hercules: np [10:22] how i can remove swfdec ? [10:22] Anybody notice it??? [10:22] Long time ago I created my Private & Public keys, but I reinstalled Ubuntu and I don't know if I saved the directory where my keys are saved. I only find the revoke certificate of my keys. Someone know in which directory the keys are saved? [10:23] mattgyver: you mean a 'windows share' or a 'nfs share' or whate exctly? [10:23] cedric30: .gnupg methinks [10:24] dr_willis, i meant a windows share [10:24] hello everyone [10:24] nope, didn't work :( [10:24] Good day, I'm running ubuntu, and now I can upgrade to 9.04, will all settings stand as they are when I do the upgrade, or will my wireless config go out the window and I have to install it again? I also got a message that my video card was not supported.... [10:24] has anyone experienced and file permissions issues with jaunty? [10:24] Brucevdk, , Do you think there are the private keys into this directory? [10:24] arrgghh.....where do i find skype?? [10:24] mattgyver: gnome file manager is supposed to be able to 'browse' the network and see them. but often i have to type in th eproper 'path' to the share. Or you can mount them manually via the command line, or fstab. [10:25] shadeslayer: its on the medibuntu repositories. has been for ages. :) [10:25] cedric30: for GPG (e.g. email encryption etc.) yes, they're in pubring.gpg (those from other people) and your private keys are in secring.gpg. Your ssh keys should be in ~/.ssh [10:25] fstab was what i was wondering, thanks [10:25] how do i upgrade to 9.04 from 8.10 using ssh? :-) [10:25] sudo apt-get dist-upgrade? [10:25] dr_willis: i cant find it :(,whats teh repo? [10:25] *the [10:25] !medibuntu [10:26] sl33v3_: it's in the docs: http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/upgrading [10:26] ehh sorry sl33v3_ I meant sidewalk [10:26] dr_willis: ubottu down [10:26] google for medibuntu the site walks ya through it [10:26] git it [10:26] g [10:26] shadeslayer, sudo apt-get install skype [10:26] *got [10:26] hey fellows jauntiers! need help. [10:26] * dr_willis wonders if anyone else always adds medibuntu within the first 20 sec of a new system running... [10:26] mattgyver: :| dont have the repo [10:26] I've just installed apache... Is it bad practice to use /var/www/ as the document root, and just change the owner to myself? or should I make the document root in my home folder? [10:26] oh darn [10:27] how can I create my own shortcuts in ubuntu to open - say - a blank gedit document? === leonardo is now known as nood [10:27] dr_willis - I have a script that does it for me :) [10:27] Anybody there??? [10:27] I added vga=360 to grub but it fails to use it,and then asks me a new code. if I use 360 again it works [10:27] raddy: no [10:27] * BUGabundo misses +1 :( === slaytani1 is now known as slaytanic [10:27] yayy [10:27] thanks [10:28] Brucevdk: they dont have instructions for console installation, or am i missing something? [10:28] yay, he found it [10:28] sidewalk: yes they do, read it [10:28] Brucevdk, It's strange because I think I always saved this ~/.gpg/ directory but I do not see private key when I open seahorse [10:28] ok, so why wouldn't my xorg.conf be taking effect? [10:28] Good day, I'm running ubuntu, and now I can upgrade to 9.04, will all settings stand as they are when I do the upgrade, or will my wireless config go out the window and I have to install it again? I also got a message that my video card was not supported.... [10:28] cedric30: is there something named id_rsa or id_dsa in your ~/.ssh directory? [10:28] has some new magic been wrought in the fires of the internet that prevent obvious settings from taking effect? [10:29] cedric30: whoops sorry, misread, hold on [10:29] vibecke, if you upgrade you should be okay. Unless i misunderstand and you already updgraded [10:29] Brucevdk, I have nothing saved into .ssh [10:29] cedric30: gpg --armor --export-secret-keys <-- does this show you anything? [10:29] is there anyway to see a boot message that shows up after the bootloader grub loads? I;m seeing some text right after grub loads but its just flashes by and i cant pause the system to see what it says is there anyway to do this? [10:30] Ok, then my upgrade is under install now ;) [10:30] hey guys, need some help - i reinstalled my broken alsa drivers, and still i can't find the alsa device in the sound options - any guesses? [10:30] Brucevdk, Its returns nothing [10:30] cedric30: then you've lost your private key unless you backed it up [10:31] hi, what is the best way to install desktop edition on an existing LVM logical volume? [10:31] Brucevdk, ... :( Thx, but I have the revocation certificate, can I use it to remove key from key server? [10:31] cedric30: well, actually, let me think for a second. You say you saved in ~/.gpg . I'm not sure that's the proper directory though. [10:31] cedric30: what is in ~/.gpg? [10:32] ~/.gnupg [10:32] Hi.. since installing 9.04 I've had trouble playing some video files in Totem. They'll work if opened from the menu, but not from Nautilus. They also dont seem to generate thumbnails. Any ideas? [10:32] Brucevdk, I have no .gpg directory [10:32] hey guys, need some help - i reinstalled my broken alsa drivers, and still i can't find the alsa device in the sound options - any guesses? [10:33] Brucevdk: nope, cant seem to find on the url you gave me how to install via console/textmode over ssh, can you please point it out to me? :P [10:33] sidewalk: it's below the section entitled "Server", sudo do-release-upgrade [10:33] hello, how do I revoke a key that I have signed with Seahorse? [10:34] pielord: revoke a signature on a key? or revoke a key? [10:34] Flannel: The signature [10:34] Hey, jaunty refuses to detect my nvidia 8700GTM [10:34] hi, I want to to test Jaunty before installing, can the alternate cd be a live CD as well? [10:35] cedric30: I'm looking up the instructions for revoking right now [10:35] Brucevdk: so those are not instructions for Ubuntu server? [10:35] Hi. [10:35] choi: Nope, you need the Desktop CD to try it out [10:35] Brucevdk, Thx [10:36] sidewalk: sure they are, but that's doesn't matter, Ubutnu server is nothing more than a text-mode only install (by default) with ubuntu-standard instead of ubuntu-desktop (and a few tweaks) [10:36] oh i see.. thnx [10:36] sidewalk: from what I can tell those are instructions to be able to upgrade your system from the console, that's it [10:36] Brucevdk: thanks alot :P [10:36] is there anyway to see a boot message that shows up after the bootloader grub loads? I;m seeing some text right after grub loads but its just flashes by and i cant pause the system to see what it says is there anyway to do this? [10:36] sidewalk: np [10:36] Brucevdk: i would never have guessed :-) [10:37] Any gotten the Nokia HS-3W working on hardy? I'd like to use it for Ekiga. http://www.nokia.co.uk/A4252241 [10:37] hey guys, this might a far fetched idea. but basically i have already a linux system which i'm looking to convert to ubuntu. i don't have any media, but i can dump something into /boot and do a netinstall, any ideas? [10:37] any ideas, how i can proceed, that is [10:37] ruser: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromLinux [10:37] Ubuntu 9.04 When i do gksu nvidia-settings or sudo nvidia-settings........... FAILED TO PARSE /etc/X11/xorg.con cannot save nvidia settings [10:38] Hello Everybody [10:38] Flannel nice, thanks! [10:38] I get message: PARSE ERROR: Parse error on line 37 of section Module in file /etc/X11/xorg.conf. [10:38] "Disable" is not a valid keyword in this section. [10:38] how do I revoke a signature on a key with seahorse? [10:38] JockyWilson: i get that same error (the first one) [10:38] Anybody noticed that New-Wave theme is incompatible with Firefox?? [10:38] Is it a bug 9.04 ? [10:38] Flannel i can use the netinstall image, right? [10:38] and OOo [10:39] SUPERWAD how do you save nviida settings ? [10:39] oh, it's working now for me [10:39] Hi.. since installing 9.04 I've had trouble playing some video files in Totem. They'll work if opened from the menu, but not from Nautilus. They also dont seem to generate thumbnails. Any ideas? [10:40] i backed up my xorg.conf file, then did sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg and let it regenerate the xorg.conf file. the nvidia-settings worked after that [10:40] ruser: Use the "alternate CD" method, yes. [10:40] ok i will try that [10:40] cedric30: ok, you've got a revocation certificate right? Is it armored (e.g. plain text)? [10:40] hey guys, need some help - i reinstalled my broken alsa drivers, and still i can't find the alsa device in the sound options - any guesses? [10:40] Anybody noticed my message???????/// [10:41] Brucevdk, it's rev.asc files [10:41] cedric30: looks like you should be albe to import it using gpg --import or perhaps even Seahorse -> File -> Import (I'm not sure if you might even be able to generate your private key from it, or if it's contained in the revocation certificate) [10:41] raddy, chill, retype your question, and wait patient [10:42] i don't know if i'd like to upgrade to Jaunty, i'm using OSS right now. is it supported? [10:42] raddy. you got replies the last time you were here [10:42] May be [10:42] pielord: read up a few lines, might interest you too [10:42] how can I make the nm applet to connect to the certain network (mine which is 3cm away from me and not some neighbours, 10m away)? [10:42] cedric30: then after importing the certificate it seems you should send it to the keyservers to revoke your original key, at least that's what the docs seem to say [10:42] Anybody tried New-Wave theme in Gnome? [10:43] nope still "failed to parse" /etc/X11/xorg.con...... cannot save nvida settings [10:43] cedric30, Brucevdk: it's ~/.gnupg not ~/.gpg [10:43] Brucevdk, ok I try [10:43] Flannel: I know, (search up) but he said he saved in ~/.gpg so I thought he might have just saved something wrong [10:43] Brucevdk: I don't know where I'm going wrong, on the key properties the 'Revoke Signature' button under the Trust tab is greyed out [10:44] can I switch user session from the CLI? [10:45] suddenly, intrepid won't connect automatically with the router via Lan anymore, strange...i hate it... [10:45] archman: 'right click' on the network applet, 'Edit COnnections', 'Wireless', then edit your connection --> 'Connect automatically' [10:45] pielord: I'm running 2.24.1 and I do have some revoke buttons here and there === mirk_ is now known as mirk [10:46] I try following http://www.debuntu.org/how-to-install-ubuntu-over-lvm-filesystem but get an error "Module dm_mod not found". Has it been renamed? [10:46] Hey guys, I've got a bizzar one, running 8.10 on a production server, just woke up to find a client's website full of errors. Looked like a permissions problem, which was weird as nothing had been changed... Turns out the whole / partition is mounted read only. How can this happen, and mount -o remount,rw doesn't work and I get: mount: block device /dev/sda1 is write-protected, mounting read-only [10:46] Brucevdk: I've got the 2.26.1 that came with Jaunty [10:47] pielord: can't help you then, not running Jaunty :-) [10:47] anyone here have experience with lighthttpd? [10:47] :( okay, i guess I can't revoke GPG keys [10:48] pielord: you can always use the command line :-) [10:49] Brucevdk: I don't know how to use gnupg on the command line, I'll stick with seahorse [10:49] minimec, thanks, and for lan? maybe? [10:49] minimec, i dont get it why it won't work anymore [10:49] cedric30: any luck? [10:50] Brucevdk, I am still trying to revoke my keys [10:50] anyone here have experience with lighthttpd? [10:50] archman: Same thing, but in the 'Wired' tab. [10:50] cedric30: did you manage to import the certificate in Seahorse? [10:50] lol [10:50] nym; [10:50] Nyx* [10:50] Ugh [10:50] edgex-: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. [10:51] Will the alternate install disk install with server or desktop tweaks? [10:51] hi [10:51] Brucevdk, Yes but it do nothing when I import it, after I try to synchronize but the keys are still on the server [10:51] cedric30: alright, does gpg --import rev.asc do anything? [10:51] Brucevdk, It try to search how to do it using the gnupg command [10:52] minimec, but i could connect to the network without turning on nm applet, until today... [10:52] minimec, lan [10:52] HELLO?????? [10:52] archman: Yeah... You can do it the old Debian way, configuring /etc/network/interfaces. [10:52] why won't anyone answer :( [10:52] anyone here have experience with lighthttpd? [10:53] this new indicator applet is very cute and all, but it keep notifying me of contacts who get online in pidgin, even if pidgin is set as "silent"; is it a bug, a feature, or a matter of configuration? [10:53] guillom: where is website of this program? [10:53] Is there a fix to the problem with IDE disks getting recognized as SCSI disks and thus won't work with hdparm? [10:54] :) [10:54] Brucevdk, pas de clé publique - le certificat de révocation ne peut etre applique (No public key, the revokation certificate could not be applied) [10:54] archman: That would be something like 'auto eth0' 'iface eth0 inet dhcp' [10:54] minimec, what line do i need? my interface is eth0 [10:54] guillom | Remove the indicator applet off the panel? [10:54] minimec, oh ok, thanks!!! [10:55] danlii: They should still work with hdparm. The move from hda to sda is intentional. === Jiyu_ is now known as JiYu [10:55] cedric30: as you may have noticed I've never done this and there's not really an easy way to mimic it. But maybe you need to import your public key first? === Roozbeh|Away is now known as RoozbehOnline [10:55] Hello. I am using Ubuntu 9.04 and Monodevelop 2.0. For some reason Monodevelop cant gather class information as a normal user. It works as root though. Any ideas? [10:55] Brucevdk, ok I try [10:55] minimec, rebooting [10:55] archman: good luck ;) [10:55] any other burn cd/dvd in ubuntu? [10:56] mobi-sheep, well, the indicator comes handy for other stuff, I don't want to remove it altogether, I would like it to follow the config I entered in pidgin about notifications :) [10:56] Flannel: I get "Inappropriate ioctl for device" when trying to set 32 bit io flag and dma flag on the disk. [10:56] cedric30, Brucevdk: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GnuPrivacyGuardHowto#Backing%20up%20and%20restoring%20your%20key%20pair for restoring, the next section down discusses revocation. [10:57] guillom: I think you can use your away message and it won't show up. It's in preferences, I think. [10:57] guillom: Always trying to help one out. :) [10:57] Flannel: good find, looks like I was close :-) === ubuntu_ is now known as DaHopi [10:57] is there anybody that has tried using his own ubuntu just with command line? [10:57] mobi-sheep, thanks :) will go on exploring [10:57] Funny thing is it still works in Debian, although the kernel is > 2.6.19 [10:57] I upgraded to 9.04 and now NVIDIA Driver setup has failed cause of kernel. Can someone help me? [10:57] is it secure to use ext4 ? [10:58] danlii: If you don't mind, file a bug on launchpad. Since, that obviously should work. [10:58] are there sites that show how to use your ubuntu without gui?? [10:58] !terminal | harlemdavvey [10:58] harlemdavvey: that would be sites on 'using the terminal' :) and 'bash' [10:58] Oh right. [10:58] harlemdavvey: and there are dozens of such sites [10:58] dr_willis: ok but there is nothing about "surviving in a life with no gui":) [10:59] dr_willis: could you show me? [10:59] harlemdavvey: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UsingTheTerminal [10:59] harlemdavvey: theres a great many people that dont use X or the gui [10:59] Hi all! [10:59] DaHopi: My friend tried and lost his 200G mp3 archives :) But yes, officially its secure i think. === supersasho is now known as supersasho_idle [10:59] harlemdavvey: google will have listings of many of them. and you can use google with links, or lynx, or w3m [10:59] Hi. If I mount partitions at /mnt instead of /media, does it mean they won't get shown on the desktop ? [10:59] I have bought my new PC and using the old harddrive which Ubuntu Server on it [11:00] Aranel: im frightend.. ;) i'll give it a try for my / partition, my data partitions will stay at ext3.. [11:00] thevdi: try it and see. I think they will show anyway. You want them to show or not? [11:00] How can I make my Ubuntu to detect all my new hardwares? [11:00] dr_willis: yes but i'm lookng for something that is specific [11:00] harlemdavvey: specific to what specifically? [11:01] thevdi: you can change this in systen configuration.. [11:01] dr_willis, I want to pick and choose which are shown. I have ubuntu tweak but that seems to globally turn them on or off. I want USB devices to show, for example, but my other mounts not to [11:01] dr_willis: for exemple, sites where i can find lists of alternative programs for gui and terminal [11:01] System configuration ? [11:01] Can some help me with installing NVidia drivers and 9.04? [11:02] harlemdavvey: no idea. in many cases you just use the prper command sto do the tasks you want to do hters no real 'alternatives' to many of them. ie: 'ifconfig' and 'mount' pretty mich are the commands you use. [11:02] hey guys, i've got probles with jaunty, after the installation there are black stripes on the left and right at the display, is there anybody who can help me? [11:02] Aranel: wheres the problem? i did a sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx-180 [11:02] harlemdavvey: i would start with some 'bash basics' sites and start working from there. [11:02] hi [11:02] dr_willis: what do you suggest me for "bash basics sites"? [11:02] DaHopi, ext4 is safe, of corse not as stable as ext3, but if you are afraid of losing your date, backup often, ext3 does not save you from the usual disk or human failure... [11:03] DaHopi: Im not using nvidia deb packages. manually installing for latest drivers. but it seems they dont work for some reason on new kernel. [11:03] how i can share flashplugin from mozilla/plugins for Opera ? [11:03] can some one redirect me through a link in simple words in regards of virtualization [11:03] ? [11:03] harlemdavvey: 'learning to think for yourself and dont expect to be hand held' :) go to google.com and search for 'bash tutorials' and 'command line basics' or check out the urls given earlier here [11:03] alex1, add the firefox plugin path to opera plugin paths [11:03] Hi.. since installing 9.04 I've had trouble playing some video files in Totem. They'll work if opened from the menu, but not from Nautilus. They also dont seem to generate thumbnails. Any ideas? [11:03] Aranel: ok.. sry i dont tryed it with the new kernel.. [11:04] magentar: dont know where is opera plugins file or how i can cded there [11:04] harlemdavvey: the 'advanced bash scripting guide' is a MUST read in the future, and Orieally has a 'Learning Bash book' thats also a must have referance :0 [11:04] m0RrE. system configuration ? [11:04] DaHopi: thanks anyway :) [11:04] extras -> settings -> advanced (or similar) [11:04] joaopinto: ok.. i'll try it with my / partition, no data partitions.. [11:04] hello, how do i format a usb flash disk? [11:04] i am unable to write *.iso image 9.04 to CD. the writting speed is 4x. and when i boot the computer with the CD. nothing happen, what is the reason? do u guys facing the same problem? [11:04] dr_willis: thank you so much [11:04] content -> plugin options [11:04] -> change path [11:04] thevdi: nevermind, you can only change on/off [11:04] magentar: on opera ? [11:05] y [11:05] another question, guys..: if i upgrade my system without booting and installing the live cd of ubuntu 9.04, will i lose my datas? [11:05] magentar: its opera:plugins but dont know how i must do now :X [11:05] m0RrE, where is the option you are talking about ? [11:05] harlemdavvey: If you upgrade with do-release-upgrade, you shouldn't lose any data. [11:06] nik_: there is 'fdisk' for the console and 'gparted' with a GUI. CHoose fat32 if you want to stay compatible with win/mac ... [11:06] harlemdavvey: it pays to always have backups... :) [11:06] i am unable to write *.iso image 9.04 to CD. the writting speed is 4x. and when i boot the computer with the CD. nothing happen, what is the reason? do u guys facing the same problem? [11:06] fdisk stands for formatdisk? [11:06] well yes, i have backups but i'm just wondering if i will lose my datas by [11:06] Optrz, try doing an MD5 on your ISO and compare with the site you downloaded it from. It might be faulty [11:06] just upgrading the system by command line [11:06] gordonjcp: im back with running livecd of 9.04 x86_64 [11:06] in case, what command can i use to upgrade my system? [11:07] actually i want to create a bootbale ubuntu 9 flash disk [11:07] gordonjcp: i disabled "Cool n quiet" function in bios, now it works.. [11:07] nik_: 'man fdisk' 'fdisk --help' in a console [11:07] thevdi: how to compare with MD5 ? [11:08] but usb creator gives me an error sayign"cannot determine aprtition number" [11:08] Optrz, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowToMD5SUM [11:08] thevdi: thank u dude [11:08] dudette ;-) [11:09] minimec, auto eth0 worked, thanks; even though i don't get it why it orked if i didn't have it in it... [11:09] thanks! [11:09] nik_: use gparted and delete the existing partitions of the flash drive. The USB Creater will then format the flash drive again. [11:10] archman: They changed that.. The network-manager is handling everything now... That's why. I think they changed it with INtrepid... [11:10] Quelqu'un utilise Compiz sou Jaunty ? [11:10] minimec, there is only 1 partition in my flash disk, but tis formatted with ntfs, thats why it cannot detect it perhaps?/ [11:10] !fr | luke29 [11:10] Oops [11:11] thevdi: it says the MD5 sum is different [11:11] do i need to download ubuntu again ? [11:11] Then your download wasn't good [11:11] nik_: Unmaount that partition and delete it. Then start the USB creator again. [11:11] minimec, but i was on intrepid for 3 months... [11:11] minimec, not from yesterday [11:11] If you downloaded it with some manager, you might be able to resume etc [11:11] i download from canonical server UK [11:11] Oprtz: you can "repair it" with a torrent client [11:11] Oprtz: i tend to get the iso files and use unetbootin to make a bootable thunb/flash drive. saves me burning to cd :) [11:12] dr_willis: i am not goo in computers :) [11:12] archman: Who cares... :) It works now. [11:12] You should fit in well here then ;-) [11:12] erUSUL: can u explain how ? [11:13] minimec, i unmounted the usb flash disk, now what do i ahve to do? [11:13] hi guys..I wonder if you could help. I have an Epson r220 photo printer. This was working fine until I upgraded to Jaunty Jackal. Now when I print, the printer light flashes as though information is being sent to the printer, but nothing prints [11:13] Oprtz: download iso, download unetbootin, plug in thumbdrive, run unetbootin. tell it the iso name and drive letter.. and away it goes... takes like 5 min [11:13] minimec, lol :D [11:13] Oprtz: just download the torrent corresponding to the iso you have when the program ask where to save it overwritte the iso you have... the torrent client will verify the file and dl only what its needed [11:14] right now the torrent speeds are... fast :) [11:14] ahh great [11:14] nik_: You have to unmount the 'ntfs' partition in 'gparted'. Then you can delete that partition. Having done that, you can start the USB creator again. It will tell you that the drive is ot formatted... and will format it for you ;) [11:14] How do I map keys on my mouse to modifiers? For example, I want to map a key to do alt-tab. I used xbindkeys with xvkbd, but xvkbd says "xvkbd: Mode_switch not available as a modifier". [11:14] anyone know how to setup a ramdisk without rebooting? [11:15] dr_willis, screaming speeds [11:15] hi [11:16] halo [11:16] DaHopi: weird [11:16] DaHopi: glad you got it working [11:16] hallo wei ghetez?

[11:18] mrwes: :-p well you fooled me [11:18] okey it sill says "i cannot find the partition number" [11:19] Oprtz: o.0! ubuntu of course since its first beta version 4.10 (or was 4.04?)

[11:21] erm, is the update manager bugging out on anyone else? it keeps popping up for me (I haven't updated yet since I'm already on jaunty and I figure the mirrors are already overstressed already) [11:22] Helo all.. can someone plz tell me how to solved this error? http://paste.ubuntu.com/157813/ [11:22] its when im trying running Ether Saga Online with wine 1.1.18 in ubuntu 9.04 [11:22] mobi-sheep: Ubottu is sleeping today... ;) [11:22] X-Ubuntu-X: try wine's appdb or their irc channel [11:23] can u give me the wines irc channel? [11:23] ubottu is probably pretty tired after yesterday... [11:23] X-Ubuntu-X: what happens when you try to play it then, besides the output? [11:23] #winehq [11:23] minimec: she probably needs lots of rest after the big release :) [11:23] it just crash and close the window [11:23] She? [11:23] Boohbah: she? how do you know? ;-) [11:23] how can a live filesystem be changed from rw to ro and can't be put back? mount -o remount,rw / gives "mount: block device /dev/sda1 is write-protected, mounting read-only" [11:23] kk.. i think its best joining #winehq as he said then [11:23] using ekiga softphone we can ring to a mobile who is in usa? [11:23] X-Ubuntu-X: try update wine [11:23] mrwes: yes ubottu is female [11:23] i tryied wine 1.1.19 [11:24] female?

This is the way, you get your Ubuntu installed on that flash drive. [11:24] Boohbah, well...she needs to shave then :P [11:24] ah, old version of nexuiz [11:24] minimec, why gaprted every time i open it it still say thet /dev/sdc1 is mounted and it is ntfs? [11:25] X-Ubuntu-X: definitely a question for #winehq, but what is patcher.exe from? have you looked in the appdb? [11:25] i mean i unmmount and delete the aprtition and when i clsoe and reopne the program it still says that it has a prtition in ntfs [11:25] could anyone plz tell me what is the difference bw %x and %X in C language? thanx alot im a newbie [11:25] where is the appdb ademan`? [11:25] anybody has an idea when the new fglrx drivers are coming out ?\ [11:25] patcher.exe is from the game Ether Saga [11:25] X-Ubuntu-X: winehq.com [11:25] nik_: As I told you: You have to unmount that ntfs partition inside 'gparted' (right click) on the partition in gparted... 'unmount' , then 'delete' [11:26] X-Ubuntu-X: .org [11:26] I have search alot on the net, but no answer that fit my problem [11:26] How can I run tar with both zxvfk and --strip-path ? [11:26] X-Ubuntu-X: http://appdb.winehq.org/ you can search for your game and see if there is any information to help you [11:26] X-Ubuntu-X: and if there isn't, please take the time to record it in appdb [11:26] how can i use ekiga softphone to call a person to his/her mobile?

However I can't run compiz because I don't have the Nvidia driver installed. Normally I a message saying "propritary drivers are available" or something like that.

[11:44] lrojas: dont worry about that [11:44] Photoguy: jaunty is supposed to speed up the boot process [11:44] where is the ubuntu upgrade party at? has anyone upgrading had any problems? [11:44] Paddy_EIRE: do i let it auto add the lines or do i do it manually? [11:44] Paddy_EIRE: ok [11:44] lrojas: auto [11:44] isn't there a deb for oracle? [11:44] Saosin: what do you mean? (honestly init is mostly outside of my knowledge) /etc/init.d/gdm stop should do the trick, if not, after that you'd just need to ctrl+alt+backspace to kill X I believe [11:44] Boohbah, I mean further speed it up. [11:44] Ubuntu8.10 running fine just 9.04 "Failed to Parse wont save nvidia settings [11:44] Paddy_EIRE: ok, done [11:44] ok thanks [11:44] bye [11:45] lrojas: ah great.. so just type into the terminal now 'sensors' [11:45] and why the hell messages say Apr 25 13:45:08 dell kernel: [14007.449925] VFS: Can't find a valid FAT filesystem on dev sdc. [11:45] every 2 secs [11:45] Ademan: i guess there is a diff. when using or not using tar. although the file utility does not see it [11:45] Photoguy: http://lwn.net/Articles/299483/ [11:45] dman777: did you figure out what it was? [11:45] um could someone help.. i removed the network connector applet from the top menu bar.. but now how can i get it back.. its not just a launcher but actuallly an applet, but its not listed under the add the panel list..

[11:46] How can I import and internet radio station pls into banshee so that banshee puts it into the radio stations library? [11:46] For instance this one:http://www.bassdrive.com/v2/streams/BassDrive.pls I can play it just fine, but it isn't put into the library. [11:46] stalker314314: the way I know how is to enable the cdrom as a repository in your /etc/apt/sources.list [11:46] Does anyone know? [11:46] Ademan: naw, it has something to do with diff. formats. i'll have to post on the forums to get a more deeper insight on how the 2 versus each other [11:47] Paddy_EIRE: nice, thanks :) although it appears my computer has no sensor for the fan but the temp seems ok... is just that the fan was sounding odd [11:47] dman777: aw, well good luck dude, at least you have a working method though right? using tar? [11:47] Ademan: i don't have cdrom, but any link will be appreciated [11:47] Paddy_EIRE: now, if the fglrx drivers worked :) [11:47] stalker314314: OH, you just want to mount the iso and upgrade from that? one sec [11:47] Ademan: ya, for man page it must be done without the tar command(bzip2) [11:47] fglrx should work on jackelope. [11:48] dman777: OH tar *doesn't* work and bzip2 does? [11:48] well, maybe there is an issue with the 64bit Jackalape [11:48] lrojas: not here [11:48] lrojas: which card [11:48] s/Jackalape/jackalope [11:48] Hi, i'm having a weird java problem here, can any1 help? [11:48] Ademan: yes, although the man utility rejects a file that is bzip2 with tar [11:48] ATI RADEON 4850 [11:48] sec [11:49] hi how to remove songbird ? [11:49] lrojas, i had the same problem with my ATI. luckily it was not 64 bit and i used the backport drivers. [11:49] jaunty is running much faster than intrepid for me :) [11:49] jaunty is FAST! [11:49] very hehe [11:49] Hello to everyone! [11:50] ayathehusker, but mac os still boots faster imho [11:50] hey Axx83 [11:50] Mint: what do you mean your card was not 64bit ? [11:50] im getting faster fps running wow through wine now on my ntfs partition, than in vista in that partition :P [11:50] Where do you put a power saving script in Jaunty ? I need this script to be processed at start, when I unplug ac, when I plug it, when I suspend, when I get back from suspension and when I shut down/restart the notebook. [11:50] dman777: ah, definitely related to container vs not in my opinion (since the tar command implicitly creates a tar container) the reason why file can't tell the difference is because it would have to decompress each bzip file to see that one contains a tar inside it. (or at least that's my take) [11:51] In Intrepid I putted it in: /etc/pm/power.d AND /etc/pm/sleep.d but it didn't work very well [11:51] is it possible to use KMS with jaunty? [11:51] lrojas: you have tried this haven't you https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/ATI [11:52] Ademan: ya, i was under the impression 'container' was just a generic term for files contained together....which would be the same for any compression like bzip2 without tar === _NeoBlaster is now known as NeoBlaster [11:52] Is there a shell command that does the same thing as "switch user" through menu? [11:53] Paddy_EIRE: i havent seen that, but let me read it now (at least i dont remenber seeing it )...

Getting around ~8500 fps in glxgears currently with 180.xx [11:53] does anybody know how to work with IPTABLE? I need to open a port on a server for a specific IP, please help out :) [11:54] Ademan: i'm outter here. take care.

I assume they're not going to be upgraded when Ubuntu moves things to Py2.6 so is there any way of finding out what I need to reinstall (or, better yet, something that will do all that for me)?

[11:58] I need this script to be processed at start, when I unplug ac, when I plug it, when I suspend, when I get back from suspension and when I shut down/restart the notebook.

If it's "forget it", just say so. === eesittiremcekare is now known as geophysics [11:59] looking at vino... [11:59] pbx, which gfx drivers do you use? [12:00] vix, you can install it via synaptics.

[12:01] we have open vpn on our systems in office [12:01] paul68: you need to rerun wget, not let it hang on tail [12:01] vix: you will need the client and some keys [12:01] i would like to connect to my office resources using open vpn [12:02] tormod: so I should remove the tail part and I am fine? [12:02] Boohbah: is the client already built-in or would i have to download it [12:02] https://help.ubuntu.com/community/OpenVPN [12:02] doubt its built in, Vix. check in synaptics.

[12:04] paul68: I thought you were using "tail -f". anyway you need to relaunch wget [12:04] Mint`: ive just installed 9.04 .. there is a system monitor only . no network monitor [12:04] lrojas: just a moment [12:05] bouma, am on jackelope too. its in the list. check again please. [12:05] Mint`: well there are; battery, cpu freq, modem, system and weather, monitors but no its not, cause i searched on the word monitor.. for some reason its not on the list [12:05] So, no ideas about fixing video config via the shell (no net connection, no real X knowledge)? [12:05] for virtualization, which program is recommended: vmware, xen or virtualbox? [12:05] lrojas: yeah just follow the steps for 8.04 [12:05] Hi. I'm using a powerline (from devolo) here for internet. but it's real slow, and i'm not on smallband.. any idea how this can happen? [12:06] tormod: ok and is data stored somewhere, even removing the tail part its still searching to the gw from work? [12:06] Mint`: i can send you a screenshot with the keywork search and the only visible applets, but the network applet simply isnt on the list. coudl i have removed it from the list somehow ? [12:06] yeah pbx if i remembered how i did it i could tell ya, all i know is i used text mode browser to read how to clear them and start up generic vga mode in x [12:06] and once i cleared them out [12:06] Mint`: when i search on net, i only get the modem monitor [12:06] Hi.

[12:07] paul68: do you have a problem with wget, or just generally with routing? try ping [12:07] ayathehusker: Thanks. I think I may be in generic mode already -- at least the x config looked pretty generic :) [12:07] hehe [12:07] ok when it tells me to "Enable accelerated the accelerated ATI graphics driver in the restricted-manager" does it mean the screen in Hardware Drivers where it shows the ATI fglrx propietary drivers? [12:07] tormod: with wget I guess [12:08] Hello. I am just wondering if the ath5k drivers work on jaunty [12:08] i'm going to upgrade it today [12:08] Mint`: its on the desktop of the Guest session.. but i just cant get it back for this desktop [12:08] paul68: wget will just use the network layer as any other app [12:08] lrojas, yes [12:08] calvinps, yes it does. Had some trouble with it at first though. [12:08] hmm [12:09] ok, let me try it now [12:09] tormod: at this point the script is trying to connect to Connecting to 10.3.10.254:3128... while my gw is 192.168.3.22 [12:09] bouma, have a read at this : http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-541944.html . [12:09] anyone know of any gui V4L config tools i can get to figure out why my tvcard has no sound? I had one in linuxmint's menu that was really nice but dont know what it was called. Pretty sure it wasnt a mint exclusive tool tho. [12:09] i kinda right clicked on firefox and removed from panel, now when i minimize firefox, it closes, how can i put that back> [12:09] ? [12:10] ok, guys, how do i get the cube effect when i switch workspaces ? [12:10] do you have ccsm? [12:10] paul68: I can say pretty confidently that the problem is not wget (or any other client program, none of which get to set your network config). The problem is your network config. [12:10] coke rather [12:10] and i'm planning to buy a 32 inch tv today, with vga input. Will I be able to use this with Ubuntu without a problem ? [12:11] Hi. I'm using a powerline (from devolo) here for internet. but it's real slow, and i'm not on smallband.. any idea how this can happen? [12:11] I just upgraded from Ubuntu 8.10 to 9.04 and now the Graphical login-window is all torn up. My graphics card is AMD Radeon 4870. Is there a good solution for this (disabling all AMD drivers through rootshell perhaps, but how?). [12:11] ayathehusker, ccsm ? what's that ? [12:11] if you have ccsm (Compiz config settings manager) installed you can set up the rotate cube and desktop cube in that [12:11] what package is "Software Sources" part of? [12:11] but you need a 3d accelerated video card driver enabled [12:11] Mint`: sorry got disconnedted.. i hope it didnt crash. i thought pidgen stayed open when you close the window [12:12] Im just about to upgrade to jaunty now, see ya laterz! [12:12] most of the little bugs i had with compiz in intrepid seem to be gone in jaunty :) [12:12] bouma, have a read at this : http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-541944.html . [12:12] Mint`: i missed that url. would you please refer me that that ubuntu message board url again ? [12:12] ayathehusker, is that installed by default [12:12] if not , can i apt-get it (jeeze i'm lazy) [12:13] hi, what i have to change in my sources.list to update to juanty?

[12:14] back in a bit [12:14] how can I enavle it? [12:14] milad i had to uninstall pulseaudio and reboot then my sound miraculously worked [12:14] hello there, please tell me a linkwhere I can download the latest ALSA drivers packages [except that sh!t homepage of theirs] [12:14] but its working perfectly on my sb Xfi [12:14] dicander: if you wanna try to configure the opensource driver (and remove fglrx), change to a console F1, login and do this: 1.) sudo apt-get remove fglrx* 2.) sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg 3.) sudo reboot [12:15] pbx: please explain? the only weird behavior I have on that part is that my wlan adapter is called eth1 instead of wlan0 even after a fresh install of ubuntu 9.04 [12:15] i have to change from intrepid to juanty? [12:15] hi everyone 1 have a question. what is the name of the package installer thing from the command line it begins with a..... i cant remember it [12:15] jaunty is worth the switch, esp with ext4 its fast as hell [12:15] sean2009, 'apt-get' u mean? [12:15] no its called [12:15] something a.... [12:16] aptitude? [12:16] sean2009, aptitude, maybe? === mj is now known as Guest28631 [12:16] someone told me yesterday buti forgot [12:16] paul68: I don't have any tips for you. I'm just suggesting that you not focus on wget as the source of your network problem. It's just providing a symptom. [12:16] Isn't JFS at least as fast as ext4? [12:16] yes aptitude thanks [12:16] sean2009, np [12:16] CokeNCode, have you got compiz installed ? [12:17] And JFS has been around for quite a few years now [12:17] please anyone, tell me a link where I can download the latest ALSA drivers packages [except that sh!t homepage of theirs] [12:17] Hi, im a new user from sweden who cannot use "normal" visual effects after upgrading to Jaunty. I have a Intel graph adapter on my laptop. Ideas? [12:18] Mint`: well thanks for the link but its related to different bugs. the person did also mentioned using hoary.. [12:18] bouma, yes it did.

[12:19] Recreate your desktop? I just downloaded the 9.4 release [12:19] channel for jaunty ? [12:19] dicander: np [12:19] Mint`: so when you go add to panel, and then search on 'net' you get the network manager ?? [12:20] bouma, yeah, its there. [12:20] you can "useradd name" or something [12:20] Szaboka: or what's wrong with ubuntu alsa packages? [12:20] upgrade was a complete disaster, 1. crash on fullscreen video, 2. evloution crashs, 3. virtualbox wont run windows anymore, 4. booting in text mode no usplash [12:20] younder: yeah i jsut installed 9.04, and i removed the network manger from the menu bar, and for some reason its disapeared from the add to panel too [12:20] Boohbah, i suddenly blacklisted it but i got rid of that entry [12:20] Boohbah, and now i dont have audio on my lappy @ 9.04 [12:20] er, why would a dbus restart cause all GDM sessions to terminate?

[12:21] anyone know how to force close a wine app without using htop? Really noobish question just figureing out if theres another key combo for a windows Alt-f4 to close an app thats locked [12:21] So try another mirror.. [12:21] Boohbah, my problem was, if i plugged my headphones in, i still heard the lappys speakers [12:21] i usually use htop to kill stuff [12:21] Boohbah, which i dont want [12:21] Boohbah, and someone told me to "upgrade" to oss, which is a sh!t as you say here in irc [12:22] ayathehusker: wineserver -k will kill all wine apps [12:22] hey guys, what's the offical way to upgrade from 8.10 server to 9.10? [12:22] Boohbah, and i want to restore my alsa drivers, so i went to reinstall them [12:22] er 9.04 even [12:22] JediMaster, update manager -d [12:22] kk, thanks m0RrE [12:22] er MindVirus [12:22] bah [12:22] Mint` [12:22] JediMaster: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.

[12:23] JediMaster, Mint`: no, update-manager [12:23] ouch cutout , there are days like that. However it is all "sortable" [12:24] the -d is for devel release [12:24] JediMaster, sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade [12:24] maybe -d too [12:24] ActionParsnip: Yes it was great [12:24] im using ubuntu 9.04.. i installed graphics drivers and now the screen cant stop shaking after i set resolution to 1024x768 by terminal. also, if i try to start screen display options it becomes slow as hell [12:24] have to kill it through console mode [12:24] cutout: then why did you fix something that wasnt boken?

And maybe fix the display screen options.. xD [12:24] chechk [12:24] mrwes: I usually just edit /etc/apt/sources.list and then apt-get update && apt-get dist-upgrade [12:24] ActionParsnip: getting the "great new stuff" [12:25] So, uh, don't hurt me if everyone asks this, but has anyone else got no sound?

[12:25] it got mine working [12:25] Mint`: it is not official policy [12:25] Mint`: what can I do [12:25] JediMaster: no -d [12:25] So it'll default to alsa or something?

[12:25] emorris: kk [12:26] huh [12:26] Mint`: no details for 9.04 [12:26] JediMaster: http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/upgrading [12:26] Couldn't I do the same thing by going into sound and setting everything to alsa? [12:26] already looked at it [12:26] cutout: ok i'd ask about virtualbox in #vbox but i'd get the other stuff righted fist, bootsplash is intransient so put it on the back burner for a while [12:26] emorris: again it's not updated for 9.04 [12:26] i tried that as suggested and it didnt work for me still was no sound [12:26] Alright, I haven't tried what you said yet so I'll give it a shot. [12:26] JediMaster: it is while i'm looking at it right now [12:26] is there a way to change the corner in which notifications appear in jaunty? [12:26] oh wait, I was looking at the link from the homepage [12:26] i dont really know how pulseaudio works maybe but i tried everything for hours then read a post about that and it worked in seconds hehe [12:26] JediMaster, entirely your call, update-manager -d does work however. [12:27] Luckly I use openbox so it can remove ubuntu desktop for all I care. [12:27] cutout: get fullscreen video resolved. Have you installed video drivers? [12:27] yeah even in gnome [12:27] Hey, I've pretty much followed this guide (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/LocalNet) for a network install. I get as far as the netboot installer menu, but when I select any of the options I get as far as loading ubuntu-installer/i386/linux......loading ubuntu-installer/i386/initrd.gz......ready then I get no output. [12:27] ActionParsnip: after upgrade no [12:27] i removed the desktop and it didnt mess anything up [12:27] wth? it took me to https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes which is out of date [12:27] cutout: i'd do that, your new kernel may need some drivers for video [12:28] ahh that's on the upgrade notes [12:28] Mint`: i cant reinstall gnome-applets and gnome-applets-data, i can only remove them. synaptic doesnt offer to reinstall. [12:28] Huh. Then it must just install everything in the default setup or something. [12:28] is there a way to change the corner in which notifications appear in jaunty? [12:28] Like some kind of pseudo-package. [12:28] right, so the offical way is: sudo do-release-upgrade [12:28] calamari_: no :-( [12:28] ActionParsnip: but compiz working , even urbanterror is working [12:28] Die pulseaudio, die. [12:29] maxb: what?! no way at all? thats crazy... [12:29] calamari_: no [12:29] hello [12:29] calamari_: yes, it's utterly crazy [12:29] didn't you just say no [12:29] o.O [12:29] calamari_: its not that crazy. I think it will be there next release [12:29] maxb: i have conky in top right corner.. and libnotify stuff goes over it.. thats annoying [12:30] cutout: oh, cool (urban terror rocks hard) [12:30] danbhfive: It's crazy that they rushed this notification overhaul into Jaunty half-baked [12:30] ActionParsnip: lol [12:30] cutout: have you tried multiple players, does it crash if you disable compiz? [12:30] sorry guys, phone call atm. [12:30] maxb: it aint half baked.. you can do better then the gates are open [12:30] omg 5997kB/s on the upgrade! [12:30] cutout: check out penumbra too, awesomely scary game [12:30] maxb, danbhfive: thanks anyway... [12:30] 6 MegaBytes/sec lol! [12:30] maxb: well, you might think its crazy, but its certainly not unusual. That how everything happens in linux. Its just not feature complete [12:31] nice lol [12:31] JediMaster: or use update manager. both are specified in that link. update-manager for desktops, do-release-upgrade for servers [12:31] damn the gb mirror is fast [12:31] ActionParsnip: tried multiple players and it crashes too when compiz is disabled [12:31] i got the install cd at 2.4 MB/sec only on mine but i think thats the max of my cable lol [12:31] emorris: it's a server via ssh, doing it in screen just in case [12:31] ActionParsnip: searching for penumbra :) [12:31] JediMaster: ah, didn't realise. thought you were using a desktop [12:31] nah [12:31] is there a temp program in ubuntu that you can place in a panel to show temps of hardware? [12:32] danbhfive: Sure, but when you're replacing one implementation with another, it makes sense to me to achieve feature-parity before changing over the default [12:32] So that did nothing. [12:32] :( [12:32] cutout: ok, un the video player from terminal, when it crashes you will get intelligent output [12:32] Goddamn Canonical. How can they have such an epic bug in a stable release??? [12:32] cutout: the game isnt free but the demo is [12:32] Have they made any announcements about the sound/video issues? [12:32] My Network manager doesnt work after upgrading to 9.04. [12:32] Slipstream: tell that to microsoft *koff*Blaster*koff* [12:32] Cause I'm probably going to use XP until it's fixed. [12:33] i cant get my tv card sound working but i think i need to install some v4l gui prog that i dont have [12:33] My CPUs don't throttle, since jaunty update. [12:33] *hint* Linux is supposed to be open...with communication. [12:33] Slipstream: its OSS, no warranties, no garuntees [12:33] I saw powernowd being removed. [12:33] does it say you have a sound card detected? [12:33] why is it so hard to download the torrent file? [12:33] ruruth: if you use amd cpus you dont need powernowd [12:33] !slow | zap0 [12:33] yeah oss will work most likely but alsa generally sounds smoother on my card since i have to use beta drivers for it in either alsa or oss [12:34] Are you seriously telling me that a major issue that affects many users doesn't matter because "its OSS, no warranties, no garuntees" [12:34] for a new linux user, my experience so far is aweful. [12:34] zap0: the torrent speed is relative to the seeders [12:34] zap0, download a torrent file? [12:34] ActionParsnip: I wont get good output because when it crashes I have to restart it just blanks out [12:34] I just upgraded to 9.04 and now I can't watch any video with any program [12:34] maxb: thats not how ubuntu works. That would be called a "rolling release" type schedule. Debian has that. Ubuntu releases every 6 months, with the goal that the features that _are_ there won't be buggy. [12:34] i can't even download the .torrent file. [12:34] See? This release is retarded with bugs. [12:34] cutout: do you mean restart the whole system? [12:34] I keep getting "badalloc insufficient resources for operation ubuntu" errors [12:34] zap0: you seem to fail at google [12:34] I wish I could get that far - my network doesn:t work at all [12:35] ActionParsnip:yep [12:35] cutout: doesnt ctrl+alt+backspace work [12:35] I also has some issues with video. I deinstalled all VLC and gstreamer and reinstalled. That did fix it. [12:35] ActionParsnip: powernowd did also do frequency scaling for intel cpus [12:35] so who here has braved the scariness of ext4? [12:35] I guess package manger got a bit out of sync [12:35] Paddy_EIRE, good one moron, you think someone about to install linux doesn't know how to use a web browser. [12:35] I'm using ext4. [12:35] ruruth: exactly, so haul it out if you use amd [12:35] ActionParsnip:did not try it but anyways I wont get that output :P [12:35] and has anyone had any disasters with it? [12:35] me jedi its been really fast and stable so far [12:35] tsopp: how are you finding it? [12:35] Its fast. [12:35] I'm on Ext4 on /root. [12:35] ;) [12:35] ActionParsnip: I have no cpu frequency scaling at all now. I have an intel cpu [12:35] super fast copying [12:36] cutout: find a way to output it to a file [12:36] Haven't noticed anything in particular, but it seems faster. [12:36] Though on my laptop it caused issues, I'm not sure I would recommended it on most laptop hardware. [12:36] tsopp, Slipstream, ayathehusker: noticeably faster? Any issues at all? [12:36] zap0: watch your attitude I found this link in all of 2 seconds.. at least I dont blame others for my own inadequacies http://ubuntu-tutorials.com/2009/04/23/ubuntu-904-jaunty-released-torrents-available-here/ [12:36] I have been having problems on my laptop during the previous release and it's got worse in the present release. Characters are printed wrong and the screen shows static :| didn't happen in windows and it lags [12:36] ActionParsnip: this is alittle bit advance for me :(, but I;'ll try [12:36] this new release is noticably slower and messed up video [12:37] My computer is always kinda quick. Can't really tell. But I'd go for it any way. [12:37] secret901 are uhaving video problems too? [12:37] intuition: yes [12:37] Paddy_EIRE, i found the link too in 2 seconds.. what of it. it doesnt work. [12:37] intuition: I can't watch any videos [12:37] zap0: I have no intention of helping you any further [12:37] zap0, do you mea nyou don't have a program to handle .torrent files? [12:37] I think I'll put off upgrading the production servers to ext4 just yet, but may try it on my desktops [12:37] intuition: I keep getting "badalloc insufficient resources for operation ubuntu" errors [12:37] Anyway, so have there been any annoucements about all these bugs yet? [12:37] hi everyone [12:37] oh that.. im trying to change my resolution.. i cant open screen display properties... it gets stuck i need to ctrl alt f1 and kill it [12:38] !attitude | zap0 [12:38] My guess on video problems is also that it is xorg related. [12:38] tsopp, the link to the torrent does not work. i can't transfer a .torrent file via HTTP. [12:38] i'm new to linux though secret901. But the screen doesn't stop shaking if i set another resolution by xrandr [12:38] intuition: Ctrl+alt+backspace no longer seems to work either [12:38] ActionParsnip: C-M-Backspace is gone. Its now SysRq+k [12:38] I could also fix some issues when I moved xorg.conf out of the way [12:38] secret901: ^ [12:39] zap0, can you download anything else? [12:39] Paddy_EIRE, your bot appears to be broken too. [12:39] danbhfive: it can be re-enabled [12:39] Wow...that's a lot of updates. [12:39] tsopp, yes, i've been download stuff for the last 6 hours of hundreds of different web sites. [12:39] zap0: it aint my bot.. and it goes down for maintenance every now and then [12:40] Will the Ubuntu 9.04 clear my home directory of unneeded files? [12:40] zap0, so when you click on at orrent file it doesn't prompt you to download? I'm not sure I understand ... [12:40] ActionParsnip: yeah, but I've heard that many distros are going this direction. So I figure its fine to settle down on the new standard [12:40] zap0: perhaps research before you plunge into something head-first and expect immediate gratification [12:40] Why would installing graphic drivers make gnome-display-properties stop recognizing the monitor and therefore,making the screen shaking constantly, plus, SO graphic environment completely crash when i try to open the display settings? [12:40] i'm using ati radeon 3850 [12:40] i just uninstalled the driver and everything seems fine.. :S [12:41] yea it probably [12:41] fell back to radeon, the open source driver [12:41] anyone cloned ext4 256 inode partitions...... what program did you use Norton Ghost incompatible 256 inode [12:41] fglrx has been causing a plethora of problems for me [12:41] JockyWilson: clonezilla [12:41] waht's the hot terminal to use these days? anything work switching from urxvt? [12:41] tsopp what do you mean? :s im not familiar with linux at all.. please speak as to a child :p [12:41] danbhfive: i'm old school, so i like the old stylee, thankfully its an option to reinstate the combo [12:41] jtan325: #ubuntu-offtopic is probably the best place to ask [12:41] jtan325: terminator perhaps :) [12:42] ziroday where they ext4 256 inode partitions you cloned ? [12:42] NOT 128 indoes [12:42] JockyWilson: not sure [12:42] tsopp, im not a moron, i write software in asm/c/c++ for last 10 years.. its really simple.. the link to the .torrent file on the ubuntu web site will not transfer a file. the transfer does not occur. the header does, i get the filename, just not the tranfer.. its like the server is saying "here have a file, of zero bytes" [12:42] intuition, there are two drivers, the open source radeon driver and fglrx which is ATI's propietary driver. So far I found that fglrx doesn't work in Jaunty, I could be wrong, so if you upgraded and were using fglrx before it could have caused issues. By uninstalling it, it defaulted to the radeon driver which works. [12:43] zap0: if the .torrent is not working then why not use just a normal http or ftp download? [12:43] Will the Ubuntu 9.04 clear my home directory of unneeded files OR are the only two options 1. to remove it all(with backup) or 2. to keep it all ? [12:44] tsopp, but i didnt install the radeon drivers... i installed SO, then ATI's propietary driver, uninstalled and reinstalled it couple of times.. but i dont know about existance of any other. [12:44] imme: what do you mean by removing unnneeded files? [12:44] imme: It shouldn't touch your home directory at all [12:44] ziroday: for instance , the gimp2.2 , gimp2.3 directories , keeping gimp2.6 directory... [12:45] sounds like imme doesnt use the alternate update cd. [12:45] imme: of course the official answer is that you should always backup [12:45] ziroday, i dont want the ubuntu, i want the torrent. [12:45] imme: no, unless you use the --purge option when uninstalling it won't touch those files [12:45] Evening everyone, has anyone got twinview running o.k. in 9.04 with nvidia? Mine seems flakey [12:45] zap0: why? === ligth is now known as beg [12:45] ziroday: --purge doesnt touch /home [12:45] wow 9.04 boots faster than 8.10, actually timed it, had to reboot 8.10 earlier, took 57 seconds from ping down to ping up, takes 50 seconds on 9.04 =) [12:45] ziroday: --purge would affect home directory files? I dont think so [12:45] Hi! [12:46] 9.04 boots in 10 seconds for me :P [12:46] johnflux: tpfennig oh my bad, was under the impression it did :) [12:46] hi Umeaboy [12:46] okay , thanks ziroday , johnflux , tpfennig . [12:46] What device should I install bootloader on so that Ubuntu will load as it should? [12:46] *~ hey guys ~* [12:46] JediMaster: technically that just means the the network came up faster [12:46] i love 9.04 it boots as fast as dos 6 [12:46] Umeaboy: hd0? [12:46] Umeaboy: depends on your installation [12:46] zap0: paste the actual link you're having problems with, please? [12:46] ziroday: That doesn't work. [12:46] gordonjcp http://releases.ubuntu.com/9.04/ubuntu-9.04-desktop-i386.iso.torrent [12:46] JediMaster: 50 seconds still sounds a long time though - slow machine? [12:46] The bootloader won't load then. [12:46] Umeaboy: what is your current status? [12:46] I get Error 2 then. [12:47] please help me, i have a black screen problem... [12:47] gordonjcp, from the web site. [12:47] JediMaster: oh, that was a complete reboot? nm [12:47] I'm in the installation and the part to coose where to install the bootloader on. [12:47] zap0: very very slow here, it's probably being hammered [12:47] zap0, that one doesn't work for me either. [12:47] hi, I'm having problems getting vino to work on Jaunty. I can connect just fine and the mouse seems to move around, but I cannot click anything. Nothing seems interactive although, when I reconnected the actions I took seem to have been taken (ie. I clicked a terminal shortcut and nothing happened. Reconnected and terminal was open). Any ideas? [12:47] zap0: tried using wget? [12:47] what is best/bloatware free mp3 player on Ubuntu [12:47] (just tried wgetr) [12:48] !best | JockyWilson [12:48] Umeaboy: you do a fresh nstall of Ubuntu 9.04 on a standard intel based system with one IDE/ATA hard disk ? [12:48] please help me, i have a black screen problem... [12:48] ziroday, curl says "curl: (7) couldn't connect to host" [12:48] zap0: I just added each of those torrents (ubuntu and kubunu) to my client and they all work [12:48] Not 9.04. 8.10. [12:48] I have no choice atm. [12:48] Umeaboy: ah ok [12:48] Paddy_EIRE: they're not working for me, then [12:48] I'm going to upgrade from 8.10. [12:48] Umeaboy: but a fresh install? [12:48] Alloha i installed ubuntu 9 but the package "tor" is gone, where can i find it? [12:48] Yes. [12:49] Paddy_EIRE, i've tried several times. [12:49] gordonjcp: explain what you are doing [12:49] zap0: ^ [12:49] Paddy_EIRE: clicking on the link on the webpage [12:49] what winamp 2.91 equivalent on Ubuntu ? [12:49] Umeaboy: and you let it install on the whole disk? [12:49] Yes. [12:49] Paddy_EIRE: it's really quite simple. I click the link on the webpage, and it sits there for a long long time without actually connecting to the server [12:49] I don't know how to make partitions that suit the hdd. [12:49] So therefor I play it easy. [12:50] Umeaboy: shouldnt the installer do that autoamtically? [12:50] people why is tor not in the packages anymore? is that by a Orwellian meaning or is that package forgotten? [12:50] Paddy_EIRE: I suspect the server that's hosting the torrents is being hammered [12:50] gordonjcp: well that is not what is happening here.. try right clicking and save link as [12:50] Umeaboy: or did you try to do your own layout? [12:50] tpfennig: Do what exactly? [12:50] Nope. [12:50] Paddy_EIRE: won't make any difference. The server is not responding. [12:50] gordonjcp: those torrent files are only bytes really [12:50] Umeaboy: create the partitions [12:50] Paddy_EIRE, i tried click, save as click, curl. all failed :( [12:50] this is so FUNNY, everything is present, but only the "tor" package is unfindable [12:50] I dont recall the 8.10 installer exactly [12:50] tpfennig: I'm not good at it. [12:50] Paddy_EIRE: again, what the files actually are doesn't really matter if the server is just timing out [12:50] why is that people? [12:50] this is weird.. [12:51] Umeaboy: are you on that machine currently also? [12:51] hi guys, how do you automatecly set up xorg and start useing restricted drivers in ubuntu? i got a nvidia geforce 6100 card. i installed ubuntu-server (but later on installed gnome-desktop-environment) [12:51] is this a joke of George Orwell? [12:51] Yes, it's beside me. [12:51] gordonjcp: well I am in Ireland.. I dont know if geography is a concern [12:51] and why is always nobody listening in this linux world [12:51] BSD users will allways help [12:51] Paddy_EIRE: fwiw it redirects to http://noncdn.releases.ubuntu.com/9.04/ubuntu-9.04-desktop-i386.iso.torrent instantly, and then that server seems to be dead [12:51] Umeaboy: and your are inside the installer? [12:51] Paddy_EIRE: I'm in Scotland, on Virgrim Media [12:51] why are linux people so rude? [12:51] O_o [12:51] Yes. [12:51] server_: have you actually got a point to make? [12:52] gordonjcp, === ep_ is now known as Guest96334 [12:52] Umeaboy: ok. let me first check grub message [12:52] I think it's because we're people. [12:52] Step 7 of 7. [12:52] !patience | server_ [12:52] tell my why is there NO tor in the packages? [12:52] server_: I don't bloody know [12:52] everything is here [12:52] except TOR [12:52] server_: [12:52] no idea [12:52] George Orwell anyone??? [12:52] !info tor [12:52] What about him? [12:52] Umeaboy: did you complete an installation procedure once but then it did not boot? [12:52] Umeaboy: and is this a new machine? [12:53] that there is no tor package available could be a brainstorm of George Orwell [12:53] Yes and no to your two questions. [12:53] server_: are you on drugs? [12:53] lolz not yet [12:53] server_: George Orwell is dead [12:53] :| [12:53] server_: he's not even on the tor team [12:53] but people where can i find TOR? [12:53] eat some shrooms smoke a bowl and then you wont think we are rude [12:53] Hey, I enabled visual effects and has successfully installed. However all window drag/handle bars have disappeared, how do i get them back? [12:53] server_: Install vidalia. [12:53] gordonjcp, zap0 the only thing I can think of is to DCC you the torrent files you want.. [12:53] vidalia does not work [12:53] Tor will be installed at the same time. [12:53] cause tor not depends on it [12:53] no [12:53] Paddy_EIRE, i would greatly appreciate that. [12:53] Paddy_EIRE: I've already got 9.04 down, it just seems odd that the server has gone tango uniform [12:54] i installed vidalia offcourse [12:54] It did for me in Mandriva. [12:54] zap0: ok just a sec [12:54] tpfennig: Now what? [12:54] how can i find trustable sources.list without spyware and stuff for tor??? [12:54] what nvidia-glx-* do i need for geforce 6100 ? [12:54] So on what screen name are you now? [12:54] Umeaboy: on start? [12:54] Me installed Jaunty KDE3 rmx, after that I can't play sound through my Kaffeine, VLC or even online (youtube). When loggin in my Linux the start-sound is playing as it is when I run a hardware media-test! What's wrong ? [12:54] this REALLY suck! [12:54] i go back to FreeBSd [12:54] server_ from www.torproject.org ? [12:55] server_: tor is in Ubuntu [12:55] does anyone here have ubuntu 9.04 and is willing to modprobe raw1394 so i can find out if its just me or if the 9.04 kernel really is broken ? [12:55] sudo apt-get install tor [12:55] type this in a terminal [12:55] tell me what yah see [12:55] zap0: which would you like... all of them? [12:55] server_: no [12:55] Hello. Which one of ubuntu you can advice? i386 of amd64? [12:55] james^Cs try removing pulseaudio, worked for me and a few others didnt work for everyone [12:55] Paddy_EIRE, x86 desktop [12:56] sure thing [12:56] server_: 1) I'm not running Ubuntu, 2) you need to learn to use google [12:56] ayathehusker , I will try that ... thx a lot [12:56] server_ tor is in the ubuntu repository. i just did aptitude search tor and confirmed it [12:57] this is soooooo FREAKIN funny [12:57] there is NO tor [12:57] Hey, I enabled visual effects and has successfully installed. However all window drag/handle bars have disappeared, how do i get them back? [12:57] server_: your computer is broken [12:57] Package tor is not available, but is referred to by another package. [12:57] This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or [12:57] is only available from another source [12:57] E: Package tor has no installation candidate [12:57] server_: you need to box it up and send it back to the shop [12:57] server_: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. [12:57] i think ubuntu 9 is broken [12:57] server_: maby you need to uncomment in sourc.list? [12:57] ayathehusker , btw: when I tryed to play a "test-sound" through the PulseAudio it said that it's not working fine and switched automatically to my HDA Intel Analog Audio device [12:57] the upgrade from ubuntu 8 to 9 failed [12:57] maybe* [12:57] server have you typed aptitude update ? [12:57] and Now there is NO tor :(((( [12:57] since you installed? [12:57] ayathehusker: Did you only remove pulse-audio, or did you also get rid of other libraries? [12:57] i cant see tor in 9.04 either [12:58] olegb, this is so weird [12:58] Orwell rolls in his grave! [12:58] server_ type this: aptitude update and THEN type sudo aptitude install tor [12:58] and then pull your head out of your ass [12:58] server_: you're too stupid to find it [12:58] ... [12:58] what nvidia-glx-* do i need for geforce 6100 ? [12:58] server_: and it's got nothing to do with George Orwell [12:58] server_: do you want me to call you a waaaahmbulance? [12:58] server_: What does Orwell have to do with this? You're really confusing me? Do you actually know who he is? [12:58] server is high on eugenics [12:58] yes that works gordonjcp [12:58] !ops | server_ [12:58] server_: please pastebin your /etc/apt/sources.list [12:58] wtf is aptitude???? [12:58] !ops server_ [12:59] !info tor [12:59] where tf is ubotu? [12:59] why no more apt-get ??? [12:59] obviously ubuntu 9.04 is broken, it was only released a few days ago.. give it a while guyz [12:59] server_ it is the new version of apt-get [12:59] Paddy_EIRE, i dont think its transfering, this IRC client is likely not setup for DCC, sorry. any chance you can post a http link ? feel free to PM me. [12:59] MrNaz: No, it isn't. [12:59] MrNaz`, err, that's not correct [12:59] Hi there [12:59] ! [12:59] there was talk about removing it - due to the fact that the package was too old. the torproject recomments using http://mirror.noreply.org for tor-debs [12:59] olegb: 2.odd is in Jaunty [12:59] Don't mix aptitude and apt-get. [12:59] Initializing package states... Done [12:59] No candidate version found for tor [12:59] No candidate version found for tor [12:59] server_: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. [12:59] olegb: 0.2 rather [12:59] WTF???? [13:00] anyone having problems with jaunty netbook remix, it takes alsmost a minute to connect to the wireless network [13:00] server_: did you read my previous comment?: please pastebin your /etc/apt/sources.list [13:00] Slipstream / unop well i've been using it as a replacement... the debian people told me aptitude was apt-get with better dep management ? [13:00] LOL [13:00] Aw he's gone. [13:00] wtf?? [13:00] znag, what netbook are you running? [13:00] im running a eee pc 1000he [13:00] MrNaz: I've also heard it's better, but that might just be elitism. [13:00] znag: yeah i was having the same problem, switched to xubuntu and use wicd and it connects quicker now [13:00] After all, it IS Debian. :P [13:01] gordonjcp: might i be missing a repo, since i cannot se the tor-package (i am updated) :-) [13:01] Slipstream so you don't think that it is ? [13:01] Guys, which one arch to choose - i386 of amd64? [13:01] olegb: odd [13:01] what do i need to install to be able to play mp3 and DVDs ? [13:01] MrNaz`, that would be correct - but it isn't a new version of apt-get .. apt-get is still very much in development and aptitude isn't part of that process, it's developed separately [13:01] No, not really. They're both just frontends for Apt. [13:01] ghabit if you're asking, then use i386 version [13:01] znag, a friend of mine has the same model and isnt having that prob..perhaps a reinstall? [13:01] Hi everyone, can anyone here help me with my xorg.conf I'm trying to config twinview monitors with a nvidia card, Works in current state, but I need to swap the res around on my monitors, if I do it kills my second monitor? http://pastebin.com/m1c221cbd [13:01] I don't think either is better or worse. [13:01] i also have the smape problem on my acer aspire one 110L [13:01] Irojas: find ubuntu-restricted-extras that would load everything you'd need [13:02] x64 version is really fast but not sure if the 32 one would also be fast hehe [13:02] MrNaz`: Is there other reasons? [13:02] is there any sound drivers to install other than default ? my microphone is doing background noise [13:02] b3rz3rk3r: tried multiple times but the issue is the same on my aspire one 110l also running jaunty netbook remix [13:02] ghabit no there are no reasons, use i386 otherwise you'll be in here in a few days asking more questions [13:02] 64 bit one is faster file transfer and stuff on 64 bit architecture also faster with rendering fractals and stuff i heard so i went with it because i like fractals O_o [13:02] I still can't believe none of these issues were fixed during alpha. >.> [13:03] Paddy_EIRE, after about 30 re-starts, it finally transfered. got it thatnks. [13:03] Hi.. anyone know how to fix Totem only intermittently playing video files on 9.04? Quite often it only plays the sound... [13:03] zap0: great stuff.. enjoy :) [13:03] a [13:03] FUCK!!! [13:03] chazco: I highly recommend VLC. === blaze is now known as Guest40366 [13:03] vlc is nice :) [13:03] znag, sorry man, dont have one to test so i cant help in this case.. keep asking tho, and checking the bug reports [13:03] chazco: Totem is just generally glitchy, at least for me. [13:04] pls people help me [13:04] i need some help... [13:04] Slipstream i dont suppose you're running 9.04 are you ? [13:04] Slipstream - Tried VLC on 8.10, but DVB support seemed quite poor... also need something to do the thumbnails (which also seems to be broken though now) [13:04] i like that scorched 3d is in synaptic i love that game [13:04] Yes, I am. [13:04] hi, how can i print on envelope [13:04] ? [13:04] And I'm begging it gets some rapid updates. [13:04] Or else I'll have to go back to Intrepid. [13:04] seems interesting that i never had connection probs using the madwifi drivers so i thougt it might be related to athe ath9k kernel module [13:04] server_: we can help, but first you have to calm down and describe the problem [13:04] i am feeling like that southpark people [13:04] And I just got cozy with Ext4. [13:04] in the night of the living homeless [13:05] still having sound probs slip? [13:05] "CHANGE!!!! Change!!!" [13:05] Slipstream would you mind running modprobe raw1394 ? on my box i get "invalid symbol in raw1394.ko" so i think the module is broken in the 9.04 kernel... i'm looking to confirm that [13:05] Yeah. [13:05] I cannot start an app (bandwidthd) via rc.local. When I start it manually with "sudo /etc/init.d/bandwidthd restart" it works fine. But when I add that line to rc.local, the application does not start. Anyone an idea how to resolve this issue? [13:05] this is my first time to use GUI, so please if u can help me [13:05] MrNaz`: It gives me no feedback. I assume it works. [13:05] Boohbah, [13:05] i wanna install tor [13:05] but tor is not available in interpid [13:06] Slipstream hmm.... kthanks [13:06] server_: http://packages.ubuntu.com/intrepid/tor says it is available in the universe repository [13:06] I wish to get a wireless card/wireless USB adapter for my desktop. Any recommendations as to what I should or should not get (or how I can figure out if the product is supported?) [13:06] is this the right channel for getting some help using ubuntu? [13:07] hmm [13:07] oups [13:07] What source is python2.4-gtk2 found in? [13:07] Stevie_p: yes? [13:07] okay :) [13:07] i couldnt find any info in the irc channel faq about asking graphic related questions, should i ask in this channel? [13:07] "You are about to install software that can't be authenticated" for a wine update. Is this strange? [13:07] thanks Boohbah [13:07] i installed by hand [13:08] djiezes: just a wild guess. rc.local is ignored, because ubuntu uses upstart [13:08] hi, how can I disable the new notification thingy and go back to standard notification-daemon? [13:08] wWales: just ask your question so long as it's about ubuntu :) [13:08] hiya all. Is it possible to throttle the download rate on the Ubuntu upgrade? Right now mine is going ahead at 150kB/sec but I'd prefer to cull it back to ~100kB/sec so I've got 50kB headroom for my normal stuff atm [13:08] http://paste.ubuntu.com/157879/ [13:08] hello [13:08] is rtorrent removed from 9.04 ?? i cant see it [13:08] Hi, I was just wondering whetehre there is an easy way to write a scroipt where it checks if a net connection is reeceiving data and then disconnects and reconnects it if it is not [13:08] quick question [13:09] inflex: usually when you begin to browse, itwill get throttled [13:09] bouma: http://packages.ubuntu.com/jaunty/rtorrent -- it's in the universe repo [13:09] is there a way to flash the icon on NetworkManager upon activity? [13:10] Help me please: I cloned my working ubuntu install to a new bigger disk. Everything went fine. I just booted from the live cd, and I now want to increase the root partition using GParted, but I seem to only be able to make the partition smaller, not bigger. What is causing this problem and how can I fix this? Any help is appreciated. [13:10] Hi.. anyone know how to fix Totem only intermittently playing video files on 9.04? Quite often it only plays the sound, sometimes it will freeze on the first frame. Thumbnails also seem a bit buggy. [13:10] lastnode: I'm on a shared network, just worrying about other people getting niggly :| [13:10] Aiggy: there's another applet, network monitor, that does that [13:11] chazco, consider switching to mplayer [13:11] gordonjcp: http://packages.ubuntu.com/jaunty/allpackages doesnt meantion tor either - this is strange [13:11] Aiggy: and I personally recommend nedspeed-applet, it [13:11] lastnode: you might use netstat or iptraf for dianogis and ifconfig up/down for making the switch [13:11] it's extremely useful for monitoring your net activity [13:11] Boohbah, THANKSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!! [13:11] BrOtHeR!! [13:11] it workz!! [13:11] how can i change my terminal font spacing? [13:11] server_: welcome :) [13:11] Niccceee :)) [13:11] grats server :) [13:11] @mathrick: Thank you. Is it something that will clutter the system? the computer is a bit "weak"... [13:12] matrixblue - I've tried several other media players before (VLC, mplayer, gxine (and totem-xine))... had different issues with them. Only Kaffeine (too bloated) and Totem worked well, but now Totem seems to have problems... Thanks anyway [13:12] Boohbah: so why doesnt sudo apt-get install rtorrent work ? [13:12] Boohbah: ive got the universe repo selected under sources [13:12] anyone got a clue, on my partition size problem? [13:12] Hello! after I set my ubuntu machine to use a static IP the web browsing has been really slow [13:12] Aiggy: no, it doesn't use any resources to speak of. It's just a tiny applet that sits in your panel [13:12] jaunty runs world of warcraft nice :) [13:12] Aiggy: I use it all the time, since it shows me traffic speeds at a glance [13:12] bouma: are you sure? can you pastebin your sources.list? did you apt-get update? [13:13] chazco, what kind of media are you trying to play? mpeg, mp4, avi, etc [13:13] anyone know how can i change my terminal font spacing? [13:13] please help [13:13] which terminal, doomhz ? [13:13] dekkong, do you have the same DNS servers set manually as the ones that you would normally get through DHCP? one bad dns can really slow you down [13:13] What file systems is everyone using to share between ubuntu/osx/xp? i was using the ext2 drivers for xp and osx but they don't seem to be working after upgrading to jackalope and ext4 [13:14] matrixblue - Quite a few types of file including OGM, AVI, MP4, MPEG, DVD, M2T (mpeg transport)... OGM seems to be particularly picky atm... also need something to receive DVB-T. [13:14] doomhz, Edit > Profiles [13:14] daftykins: default terminal window from ubuntu [13:14] pasting with a middle mouse button click stopped working in my ubuntu a long time ago. I'm running 9.04 64bit with gnome. The mouse used to be set up in xorg.conf but no more. Where is it configured now and how do I get middle click paste working again? [13:14] FAT32, what else? [13:14] @mathrick: will do, thanks. Got fed up with windows. Too slow for my machine + I won't pay for another license (its MSDNAA). [13:14] wobbleyhead, I cuadruple-boot and use FAT32 for "My DOcuments" partition === Imaginativeone__ is now known as imag_afk [13:14] anyone had any experience running 9.04 on a GMA X3100? [13:14] does anyone know how to get a script file to autorun when double clicked? I can execute them by clicking but i always get a menu to open them in a text editor or run them, is there a way to make it always launch on double left click? [13:14] gnome-terminal then? Edit -> Profile Preferences doomhz , change the font to one of preferred spacing [13:14] matrixblue: can't change letter spacing from there... [13:14] wobbleyhead: ntfs has read/write support in linux. [13:14] just wondering if maybe NTFS would be a better option as the support is getting better is osx and linux [13:14] :wobbleyhead i'm using ext3 without problems [13:14] user___: both those apps can detect data being received? (because data gets sent just fine) [13:15] are you after getting rid of monospace or gaining monospace doomhz ? [13:15] doomhz, have you unchecked use system font spacing and input you own number? [13:15] wobbleyhead, I might use NTFS if I had a windows runing, but without windows, what's the point, really? :-) [13:15] I don't really like NTFS because it isn't quite as neutral as FAT32, but it is technically better I suppose. [13:15] and I don't think (ot sure) that MacOS can write to it [13:15] wobbleyhead - I used to use FAT32 but it had summertime problems, so i'm using ext3 now with the ext2ifs on Windows. [13:15] lastnode: just read the into of man netstat [13:15] matrixblue: yes, unchecked it... [13:15] s/into/intro [13:16] hello, I just upgraded to 9.04 and my sound is now very low ... almost but not quite inaudible ... [13:16] ...is it possible to run a defragmenter on WINE? [13:16] :P [13:16] i have my vista install mounted as NTFS and my ubuntu installation is on an ext4, its running smooth and launching apps on my windows drive via wine is also quite fast, faster than windows loads some of them [13:16] daftykins: i like monospace but the space between letter become to little and i barrelly can read the output :) [13:16] I use a fair few VM's for testing new builds for work and some of the virtual hard disks are about 30gb, but FAT32 won't support a single file that large [13:16] yes, but "osx" was part of the initial question. [13:16] what kind of apps do you run from your Vista install ayathehusker ? [13:17] Anyways, I want to watch a video so I'm off to XP. Later peeps. [13:17] anomie1: maybe you can adjust the PCm volume? [13:17] change to a good font and size font doomhz [13:17] daftykins: everything happend after I upgraded to Jaunty... [13:17] thanks [13:17] by all [13:17] Hi.. anyone know how to fix Totem only intermittently playing video files on 9.04? Quite often it only plays the sound, sometimes it will freeze on the first frame. Thumbnails also seem a bit buggy.

[13:18] anomie1: click on settings [13:18] anomie1: maybe you can enable PCM [13:18] lastnode: netstat --statistics | grep received.. [13:18] how would i enable PCM? [13:19] Hi! When i use static ip adress in ubuntu web browsing becomes really slow [13:19] tpfennig I see a prefences [13:19] dekkong, do you have the same DNS servers set manually as the ones that you would normally get through DHCP? one bad dns can really slow you down [13:19] anomie1: select the box on the lefzt [13:19] anomie1: oh you are on Ubunu 8.10 ? [13:19] upgraded to 9.04. ... [13:19] anomie1, well done. [13:20] now only have "Master VOlume" listed... [13:20] jintxo:The DNS settings are the same as on my laptop which is running XP and it's fast [13:20] user___: thanks [13:20] anomie1: you shoudl not open settings first when right clicking but loudness [13:20] anomie1: I dont know how they call it in english [13:20] I just upgraded to 9.04 and when i restarted i can select the new kernel in boot, but then it sort crashes/blacksreen weirdness. I cant see GDM. I think its a Xorg problem. Any ideas how i can fix it? [13:20] anomie1: second entry with right click === john is now known as Guest44907 [13:20] dekkong, and you say that if you don't set them manually (you use dhcp, I assume) then it goes fast on linux too?

[13:21] no - for some reason all i have is Master [13:21] tpfennig [13:21] omg im so sorry [13:21] it automatically joined [13:21] jaunty69 go to preference->appearence and then start to tweak it [13:21] surabaya [13:21] anomie1: ok on the bottom of the volume control there is another settings button! [13:22] j/ surabaya [13:22] tpfennig: yes Preferences [13:22] or preferences maybe [13:22] ah k [13:22] click that [13:22] jaunty69 also the compiz settings manager would help as compiz is installed by default [13:22] tpfennig : Only 1 option in there: ... "Master Playback" [13:22] i also recommend the simple compiz config settings manager Jaunty69 , "sudo apt-get install simple-ccsm" to install it, it'll appear on system -> preferences menu [13:23] anomie1: ummm what kind of computer do you have? ;) [13:23] !ccsm [13:23] tpfennig dell core2 [13:23] tpfennig xps [13:23] (& many thank yous for helping me) [13:23] what do I do with a .run file ( In the fear of sounding stupid) do i run it in term or just run it period ? [13:23] I just upgraded to 9.04 and when i restarted i can select the new kernel in boot, but then it sort crashes/blacksreen weirdness. I cant see GDM. I think its a Xorg problem. Any ideas how i can fix it? [13:23] anomie1: hm strange I have about 14 sound controls which I can enable. Maybe you are missing something [13:23] ayathehusker: so I should install NVidia driver for the graphics card [13:24] L3dPlatedLinux, i'd recommend checking what it is first with a text editor, you'll need to then "chmod +x blah.run" then "./blah.run" in a terminal, or right click and enable 'execute' in the permissions [13:24] tpfennig: yes is strange. I do not have nvidia graphics drivers installed ... [13:24] anomie1: when you close that sound volume you should open the plain settings again [13:24] L3dPlatedLinux: Probably best best to do it in term. [13:24] anomie1: maybe you can switch the sound device [13:25] L3dPlatedLinux: Also run "file" on it, if it says something like Bourne shell script text, then run it with "sh" :) [13:25] tpfennig : Hey found it!! [13:25] is "Device" dropdown at top ... [13:25] dekkong, and you say that if you don't set them manually (you use dhcp, I assume) then it goes fast on linux too? [13:25] anomie1: aha?

[13:30] Hi all..I am sure this has probably been asked several times... I upgraded to 9.04 yesterday on my laptop, without issues. When I got home I opened my laptop and wireless wouldn't connect. It shows as disabled. I searched on the forums and it seems to be a widespread issue. Any pointers on how to fix? [13:30] ninadsp and daftykins any idea why it screwed up? [13:31] Anyone know how to fix my middle mouse paste? The middle button. It does nothing! [13:31] hoiner: one thing you can do to check teh diagnostics is to check the X logs at /var/log/Xorg.*.log [13:31] hi, i just made a clean install of 9.04 over my 8.04 and when grub was installed, it doesn't point to my xp anymore [13:31] hello everyone [13:32] oj that a well to do fix [13:32] hoiner i would make a backup of xorg.conf and then delete the real one, then try booting. do you have ATI graphics with the fglrx driver from your old install? [13:32] OJ i suggest you google grub [13:32] hoiner: i guess it might be a problem of drivers... try booting from the newer kernel now.. if its fixed, then maybe the older xorg.conf might be having what you need [13:32] oj: add an entry to /boot/grub/menu.lst [13:32] daftykins fixed it now.. rm xorg.conf and cp a backup, booted old kernel =] [13:32] oj: try reinstalling/updating grub.. there is a command to update grub... [13:32] oj: maybe the old menu.lst still exists in the dir [13:32] tried booting a newer kernel with it like that hoiner ? [13:32] i have no sound on hdmi on my laptop. using ubuntu 9.04 ... any ideas?? [13:33] hello [13:33] oj: download Super Grub CD, burn in and boot whit this cd [13:33] Hello, I'm having a problem with the graphical driver. I can't add any kind of visual effects to 9.04. It's working perfectly in 8.10 (without any sort of configuration on my part). It's searching for a driver, but apparently doesn't find anything. [13:33] im running a counter strike server under ubuntu [13:33] hoiner: next step, try to use the newer kernel and still see if it works [13:33] recently it has started to use the amd optimized binary instead of the iontel one [13:33] What is needed to go back to 8.10 from 9.04 (too buggy), with a separate /home partition? Worried config files may have changed... [13:33] ActionParsnip, my XP is on /dev/sda1 but grub thinks it is on /dev/sdb3.. so what should be root notify (hd0,1) right? [13:33] I'm running on a Lenovo R61i [13:33] anyone have any idea how to force it to use the intel binary? [13:33] chazco: you can't [13:33] oj: no, grub doesnt use /dev/anything [13:34] oj: it uses disk numbers [13:34] Kerio, you can force drivers by entering them into the /etc/X11/xorg.conf file [13:34] oj: try sudo update-grub once, befire manually playing with the menu.lst [13:34] chazco: fresh install [13:34] roxan - Yep, but will the config files on the /home partition still work in 8.10? [13:34] Kerio: what do you mean? ( you and your scripts decide which binary is called) [13:34] chazco: yes, for all the application you'll install on 8.10 [13:35] thx [13:35] roxan - Ah, thats not so bad then...was worried the newer versions in 9.04 may have changed them [13:35] Thanks [13:35] user___ [13:35] hi all, I'm using auto login on my laptop and evey time I turn it on, I have to enter my password for keyring to connect my wireless network, anyone here knows how to connect it automatically?

[13:37] oj: try sudo grub-install, after reading the man pages... [13:37] roxan: keyring-manager is Encryption and Keyring menu? [13:37] daftykins, i cant find any cpu settings or info in that file [13:37] ninadsp, no you're misunderstood, the grub is okay, i boot ubuntu through it, and other linux oses (after editing the root partition for those also, somehow it was pointing somewhere else) now all that's left is to fix the xp boot [13:38] Townk: wait let me check [13:38] oj: ohh.. sorry... try update-grub or manually fix the menu.lst then... :) [13:38] i thought you meant graphics Kerio - there are no processor drivers per se [13:38] Kerio: are you running a patched kernel, which contains patches not provided by ubuntu? [13:38] aha, ok [13:38] user___ yes [13:38] what exactly do you mean when you say Intel and AMD binary drivers Kerio ? [13:38] special low latency kernel [13:39] Kerio: so then maybe this is not a good place to ask.. :-) [13:39] ./hlds_run -game cstrike -sys_ticrate 1000 -pingboost 3 +maxplayers 14 +map de_dust2 +ip 83.233.35.19 [13:39] Auto detecting CPU [13:39] Using AMD Optimised binary.

[13:40] I've done a clean install of jaunty now, and I still get random kernel panics and loads of segfaults [13:40] quick question [13:40] Kerio: what's the output of "cat /proc/cpuinfo" ? use pastebin [13:40] is there any way to get a vista like search bar in ubuntu nautilius [13:40] hi [13:41] Townk: its under accessories -> password and encryptoin keys [13:41] Just installed Ubuntu with nvidia driver 180. and it works OK. But it doesn't let my resolution go to ther max of 1440x900 [13:41] Z_God: you might do the mem-check on the install-cd, it takes ages but still its very helpful [13:41] I did a memcheck several times already [13:41] ok [13:41] but it seems to be ok [13:41] the nvidia settings program only goes upto 1360x768 [13:41] any ideas? [13:41] doing a badblocks check atm [13:41] is ther any way to get a file search bar in nautilius? [13:41] my card can handle 1440x900 [13:42] ho [13:42] hi... i updated to jaunty yesterday and now my ubuntu drops to the initramfs-shell telling me that the root device didn't appear... looks a bit like https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/290153 [13:42] I just installed 9.04 with the alt installer and I've set up a software RAID1 with LVM on top. But booting the System now results in Grub giving me an "Error 16". What's wrong and how can I fix it? [13:42] * roxan is away: Excuse me. [13:42] roxan: tks again, let me check [13:42] hello anyone knows if I create a kvm image using: "sudo ubuntu-vm-builder kvm jaunty" where its xml config file ends up? [13:43] is ther any way to get a file search bar in nautilius? like in a popular OS we all love to hate [13:43] is there anything known about this in jaunty? [13:44] ruediger, re-install grub [13:44] Hi! I made the mistake of formatting / as ext4 when I installed Jaunty yesterday, so now I'm stuck because Clonzilla can't read ext4, so I can't backup my system. Does someone know if I can copy everything in / , reformat in ext3 then put everything back in place? If so, how can I make sur permissions and ownerships won't be messed up? [13:44] ruediger, and see if you have set the correct path in menu.lst [13:44] is ther any way to get a file search bar in nautilius? like in a popular OS we all love to hate [13:44] ruediger, do you have two HDDs? [13:44] who can help me with my kdevelop problem ?? thanks ..................... [13:44] kn100: ctrl + F [13:45] ackbahr: you could use the live cd to transfer data from the ext4 to any other partition and do your reinstall... [13:45] should be a search button also [13:45] roxan: hey man, sorry to keep bugging you but I can't find where to set it to always allow network manager, do you know where it is? [13:45] ackbahr: tar with -p (preserve) should be able to backup or dump cpio... [13:46] ackbahr: ohh.. sorry.. didnt read your question completely.. follow erUSUL [13:46] gnail, ask away, if someone knows they would answer [13:46] can someone help me get 1440x900 working on the latest ubuntu release :)? [13:46] liam, graphics card? [13:46] The nvidia settings only show up to 1360x768 - but my card supports 1440x900 just fine. [13:46] nvidia 9800gt [13:47] thank you when i run configure it have a problem : error: C++ preprocessor "/lib/cpp" fails sanity check [13:48] gnail: are you trying to compile kdevelop? or is it happening when you try to compile a cpp code? [13:48] Hi, just installed jaunty and Xorg won't start but it comes up with the ncurses recovery. When I press any keys I get character codes just echoed to the screen. [13:48] ninadsp: Thanks [13:48] i try to compile a c++ kde [13:48] theneb: tried xfix from the recovery menu tht you get? [13:48] arvind_khadri, any idea? [13:48] Morning, [13:48] erUSUL: Thank you, that's exactly what I need.... Without z or j, tar won't compress? === ayathehusker is now known as AyaTheHusker [13:49] gnail: sorry... but i didn't understand yo completely... are trying to compile a c++ file? [13:49] I just upgraded to 9.04 things mostly seem fine. [13:49] ackbahr: yep z uses gzip j uses bzip2 [13:49] liam, you could check up xorg.conf and try hand writing it [13:49] ackbahr: use z [13:49] a simple kde application [13:49] i am sorry i am a new er [13:49] erUSUL: Well, actually I have more HD space than time, so it's ok without compression.... [13:49] hi - (how) is it possible to show fullscreen video ONLY on an external screen also with several virtual desks? - tnx... [13:49] why does tracker not index hidden folders and how can I tell it to do so? [13:49] gnail: ok.. have you tried compiling the file from something other than kdevelop? [13:50] gnail: it's ok.. even i am new here.. :) [13:50] however I can only use kernel 2.6.27.14 if I try 2.6.28.11 I get a hex dump preceded by BUG: [13:50] ackbahr: also you will have to exclude /proc/ /sys/ /dev/ from the backup and other things a light search in google will give you the best combination to backup a root fs [13:50] no [13:50] is there someway I can make another attempt to upgrade the kernel? or fix it? [13:50] gnail, you could presumably get more help in kubuntu :) [13:50] ackbahr: z is pretty cheap nowadays in cpu [13:50] liam: hey there.. open a terminal window and type "sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg" without the quote marks [13:50] erUSUL: Even if it's designed to get back of the same system? [13:51] yeah i am learning kdevelop and qt4 [13:51] gnail: well i agree with arvind_khadri, but try to see if kdevelop has found the c++ compiler... [13:51] erUSUL: not "of", sorry, "on"..... [13:51] gnail: maybe that's your error... try out #kubuntu for better help... [13:51] yes but how to find , i don't know how to do [13:51] ackbahr: yep they are generated at runtime they do not "exist" on the HD platters [13:52] gnail: check the settings of kdevelop to see if it has found the c++ compiler.. most ide's have an option to set the path to the compilers... [13:52] Hey all [13:52] hmm, anyone who can tell me how to make the sound work from the 3.5 mm audio plug work on my laptop (the sound works but only in the inbuilt speakers, when I plug in my headset the sound stops working)? [13:52] gnail: should be somewhere in the preferences... [13:52] What folder to I place Gnome themes into [13:52] ackbahr: if you do the backup from a livecd the point is moot though ;P [13:52] i have setted path [13:52] gnail: and the compiler is there at the path? [13:53] gnail: i assume you would have checked that... :) [13:53] i will try at kubuntu thank you [13:53] erUSUL: Ah, ok.... So I need something like "tar -pRz /dev/hda1/ /dev/BACKUPPOINT" + an option to avoid the aforementionned folder? [13:53] arvind_khadri: I have two hdds [13:53] sdwrage, ~/.themes/ [13:53] roxan: I found it, was not in Keyring manager, is on System->Administration->Authorization [13:53] gnail: sure.. best of luck [13:53] thank you [13:54] hello. where are the applications in ubuntu? :| [13:54] roxan: then you have to find network-manager and allow everyone to change system connection [13:54] ruediger, then see in menu.lst that root has been assigned proper coordinates and grub should be installed on hd0 [13:54] if i learn programing at linux which bool i need ?? [13:54] roxan: it's working now, thanks! [13:54] Thx kliklik [13:54] sorry i write wrong [13:54] it is book [13:54] arvind_khadri: seems to be correct root=/dev/mapper/vg1-root--lv which exists [13:55] where are the applications kept in the file structure? I've downloaded and installed some apps, but can't find where they are :( [13:55] pokey19: welcome to *nix ;-) [13:55] erUSUL: But getting back to the original problem, do you think the system is going to survive if I transfer it just like that from ext4 to ext3? [13:55] kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.28-11-generic root=/dev/mapper/vg1-root--lv ro single [13:55] initrd /initrd.img-2.6.28-11-generic [13:55] ruediger, thats the partition where ubuntu exists? [13:55] gnail: maybe #linux is a better place for that? especially if you want to work on linux and not distro specific programs? [13:55] szf: where are they? :| i need to use a program i cant find it [13:56] hello -- have Nvidia module fails to load on XPS Dell [13:56] pokey19: do you mean the installers of the programs? or the programs themselves? [13:56] can you install a package from 8.10 in 9.04 ? the new version seems to not work (dvgrab) [13:56] arvind_khadri: yes. this is the partition where I installed / [13:56] Hi, all, I am getting firefox lag scrolling, selecting tabs, etc. Anyone know how to fix? (Smooth scrolling is disabled.) [13:56] pokey19: google: wiki fhs linux [13:56] (It runs fine on windows, just not on Ubuntu.) [13:56] ninadsp: the programs themselves [13:56] ruediger, mind making the root = UUIDS ? [13:56] pokey19: no really, linux like other unices is non-monolithic - where things are installed just depends [13:56] It seems I can not install the ATI driver for Radeon 9550, without my computer being borked. Does anyone else have this too? [13:56] pokey19: tried the menu on top left? [13:57] arvind_khadri: making what? [13:57] pokey19: incase you have deleted it by mistake, you can add it back by right clicking on the top panel and adding the menu again.. [13:57] pokey19: for example, i install local softwares in ~/opt/local [13:57] ruediger, change the root line to look as root = ruediger, change the root line to look as root = [13:57] am in lo res mode... to 'fix' only way to fix is to uninstall nvidia drivers .... [13:57] szf: ok thanks. ninadsp : i tried that. I downloaded and installed a program using "sudo apt-get install XXXX" [13:57] pokey19: someone else could choose /opt [13:58] so i assumed it just installed it in some default location [13:58] arvind_khadri: ok. the uuid that's given in menu.lst? (there is a line uuid d3d...) [13:58] kliklik, I can't find the themes folder in home... [13:58] pokey19: what was the prog? maybe i could help out [13:58] pokey19: depends on how you installed in - from deb? [13:58] so should it be /home/myname/.themes? [13:58] pokey19: you can find out by 'whereis XXXX' [13:58] pokey19: tarfile? [13:58] I just did a distro upgrade from Intrepid to Jaunty using update manager. When I reboot I get some sort of screen dump with BUG: followed by a hex dump, then STACK: followed by another hex dump. I also can't use recovery mode for 2.6.28.11, I have to use 2.6.27.14 or nothing at all. can I fix the broken kernel setup? [13:59] pokey19: try the whereis command.. read up its manpage for further details... 'man whereis' [13:59] ruediger, you can get the uuids from the cl , ls -l /dev/disk/by-uuid [13:59] I try to start the application bandwidthd via /etc/rc.local with this command: "/etc/init.d/bandwidthd restart". But I get an error in /var/log/daemon.log that eth0 is not up, so it doesn't start. This used to work in 8.10, but now in 9.04 the app does not start. Anybody an idea how to resolve this issue?

[14:01] okay. i'll have to read up on some things. I thought there might be some programs directory containing them all but i guess not.

I left my computer on all night and when I cam to it in the morning it would not unlock I just got a blank screen but when I droped to shell there were loads of errors well one error that kept repeating saying about the ext4 filing system. So I did a reboot and all I get is error 17 and the grub fails to boot. [14:01] sdwrage: tried using the 'login manager' in your system settings to set/install the themes? [14:01] arvind_khadri: it doesn't start via session either, i had that problem on intrepid too, but succeeded in getting it to start via boot via rc.local [14:01] pokey19: yes please read up fhs... :) [14:02] awesome thx [14:02] arvind_khadri: and than run grub-install again and reboot? [14:02] pokey19: 'thanks for the hell' that's funny [14:02] anyone got a link about getting the old amarok back that was on intrepid? the new one is ugly and horrible so I imagine a few people wanted this [14:02] :P [14:02] ruediger, ya, i am just taking my chances.... am not sure if this will work or, do not curse me [14:02] user__: here's my pastebin, if that helps. [14:03] user__: http://paste.ubuntu.com/157903/ [14:03] now it's system trashing time.. trying to upgrade :) [14:03] arvind_khadri: I won't curse you! Thanks for your help so far! [14:03] user__: but i guess the problem is that my system tries to start bandwidthd, before eth0 is up. Now it is up, after boot is done. [14:03] ruediger, no probs, do tell if it works :) [14:03] can anyone help me enable compiz on 9.04? i assume i need to enable the restricted nvidia drivers, however there is no option to do so in the restricted drivers manager... [14:04] * szf thinks that there was a recommendation not to have /boot as ext4 [14:04] chrisdone, did you try this already https://launchpad.net/~bogdanb/+archive/ppa? [14:04] djiezes: yes, the pastebin in line 5 says that eth0 is up. [14:04] chrisdone: there's a repository made by bogdan or something, search on google with "jaunty" and "amarok14" [14:04] hi [14:05] djiezes: read about upstart. google wiki upstart, then delve deeper with the given links [14:05] user__: yes, but that's when booting is complete. problem is that eth0 does not seem to be up when bandwidhtd starts via rc.local. [14:05] chrisdone: i too prefer the older amarok... the newer one is very unstable... [14:05] sdwrage: System > Prefs > Users & Groups [14:05] djiezes: you need to tell ubuntu to run the b* script after network config scripts [14:06] user__: and how do i accomplish that?

Probably better to back up your home dirs / stuff and get an install cd. [14:56] mnemo: would those drivers be installed by default by the 9.04 install disk?

[14:57] is there any image viewer for gnome that can display animated gifs? eog cant to that [14:57] anybody knows if there are drivers for ATI in Ubuntu 9.04 ?

Like the Linux image: installed version=2.6.24-19.41 (hardy-updates), latest version=2 [15:45] Bucky: do not use sudo in this case you are alrady root [15:45] Dr_Willis: Well, my home folder is located on its own partition [15:45] okay [15:45] Can anybody help me? [15:45] Bucky: run « dpkg --configure -a » [15:45] Hi to all, I need Help!!!, tried ubuntu 9.04 live, but it asks me (initramfs) [15:45] randomusr: you should be able to.. however you'll have to do it manually... [15:45] mortal1: copy it over somewhere else perhaps. encrypt, copy it back.. im not that paranoid [15:45] So could I encrypt the home folder without losing data? [15:45] Dr_Willis: Thanks for your help. i am manually downloading the packages [15:46] nindsp, is there a tutorial someplace? [15:46] erUSUL: Working [15:46] McGinnis_t: which repo?

[15:47] Bucky: after « dpkg --configure -a » retry the « aptitude update && aptitude dist-upgrade » [15:47] I'll just tias when i get it downloaded, can't be that complicated [15:47] hello guys..i have a problem with 9.04 using wubi...i booted the ubuntu 9.04 then halfway on the loading screen,messages came out..my problem is..i can see that "Activating swapfile swap".. took like 10 minutes..unlike the 8.10 Ubuntu, which booted faster [15:47] randomusr: Go to system -> preferences -> keyboard shortcuts [15:47] dserodio: i havn't changes my source.list from what dell provided. would you like it? [15:47] randomusr: i dont know the file, but u can go to system>preferences>keyboard shortcuts [15:47] Im getting about 40 to 70 kb/s on update is that normal for right now? [15:47] erUSUL: It's spitting out a shit load of permission denied [15:48] how do I upgrade from linux mint 6 felicia to ubuntu 9.04? [15:48] Bucky: :| unspected [15:48] McGinnis_t: I don't have a Dell mini, I was just wondering if the new repo looks "suspicious" [15:48] erUSUL: Huh? [15:48] hey all, is ubuntu 9.4 also behaving with a very long latency when opening programs at you? It's very slow here. [15:49] Bucky: i did not spect that... you may have to do it from recovery mode after all [15:49] question: what's the default image viewer in jaunty? [15:49] lord_hypnos: You can't. Copy all of your files off of your computer and install using the install cd. [15:49] Gekz: eog ? [15:49] Mcginnis, I have a dell mini 9, I wouldnt use the dell repositories get a 386 NBR and use that. [15:49] hello guys..i have a problem with 9.04 using wubi...i booted the ubuntu 9.04 then halfway on the loading screen,messages came out..my problem is..i can see that "Activating swapfile swap".. took like 10 minutes..unlike the 8.10 Ubuntu, which booted faster [15:49] OK, my turn: I just plugged in my laptop to my home monitor through the VGA port, and the Display preference app won't let me up the resolution to its native 1680x1050.

[15:49] people help me please [15:50] okay I guess I will be talking when I get back [15:50] mcginnis the dell repos are 8.04 [15:50] LPIA [15:50] how add tags to audio files bitrate = 1600 ( wav) [15:50] Ooble: Maybe your graphics card doesn't support such a high resolution. [15:50] Gekz: no; did not upgrade yet but default gnome viewer is eog [15:50] amarok exaile rhythmbox don't add [15:50] voss: Is LPIA bad? [15:50] easytag too [15:50] sreenath, I have a feeling it does, but I shall double-check. [15:51] A4Tech: wav files can not have tags [15:51] erUSUL: ah [15:51] thanks [15:51] :D ... [15:51] erUSUL thx! [15:51] ) [15:51] if i installed 9.04 RC then when the official version came out do i still need to do a distrobution upgrade or is it just the packages ? how can i check ? [15:51] Canon LBP 2900 in Jauntry. dmesg | grep "ccpd": ccpd[3959]: segfault at b7254004 ip b7e3e572 sp bfcb3160 error 4 in libc-2.9.so[b7dcd000+15c000] [15:51] Ooble: Do you have the restricted driver installed? Those are usually better for graphics cards. [15:51] ninadsp, does resetting key bindings require a restart? [15:51] !final | Xcerca [15:51] LPIA isnt bad but it isnt pure 386, the Dell Mini 9 runs the 386 repos just fine, I switched mine over to 9.04 notebook remix from a usb flash drive [15:51] Xcerca: If you installed a Alpha/Beta/RC version of Ubuntu 9.04 (Jaunty Jackalope) and have been keeping it up to date, then you are already running the latest version of Jaunty. To make sure, type « sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade » in a console. [15:51] erUSUL flac support? [15:51] randomusr: nopes [15:51] * roxan is back (gone 02:09:16) [15:51] thanks [15:51] randomusr: it should work as soon as u press ok... [15:52] A4Tech: flac does support tags yes as does ogg flac and vorbis files [15:52] ninadsp, no OK, just close [15:52] sreenath, is there one for ATI cards? Also, the native resolution of the laptop monitor is 1600x1200, which is larger than the external. [15:52] randomusr: then close it is.. :) [15:52] Ooble: Hmm... I don't know. [15:52] hey everyone! guys, I'm about to install 9.04 and can't choose between ext3 & ext4. [15:52] In theory LPIA was supposed to give you longer battery life, I get 4 hours and 15 minutes of battery off the standard i386 NBR [15:52] ninadsp, right, did that, still nothing [15:52] is ext4 that good already to use? [15:52] flash has no sound. any solution? [15:53] kante, use the default then , safe choice [15:53] erUSUL: And how can I convert wav => flac without loss of quality? [15:53] kante: use ext3 for now [15:53] randomusr: please wait around and ask.. afaik, it shoul dhave done it [15:53] marco, whats your system [15:53] voss: OK. I will give it a try [15:53] Can anybody suggest a fast server :( [15:53] roxan: ok thx! [15:53] its says now under addons/plugins in firefox that i have the flashplayer plugin but when i go to a site that has flash movies it directs me to adome.com, it has some linux version but none of them work in ubuntu 9.04 x86_64 for me :( [15:53] A4Tech: flac is lossless cadec you will not loose quality... you can use any utlity you want like soundconverter [15:53] Every server is not good for more than a few seconds [15:53] adobe.com* [15:54] It is still weird that there would be so many updates [15:54] will apt-get and aptitude list the same packages ? [15:54] randomusr: i have to leave.. so pls ask sum1 else.. [15:54] Xcerca: yes [15:54] erUSUL: You have no script to convert? [15:54] McGinnis_t: maybe it's because of the 9.04 release which was somehow "delayed" to your mirror? [15:54] thanks sreenath [15:54] I just upgraded to 9.04 and I think I messed up removing emerald--I have everything running, but I'm missing compiz effects even with compiz-manager --replace enabled. What do I need to do to get compiz running? [15:54] A4Tech: no [15:54] =( [15:54] is it normal if jockey's "Downloading and installing driver" window sit's at 0% forever?

Haven't done that yet. Thanks for your help. [15:55] but shouldnt i be able to use 32bit flash in 64bit os somehow? [15:56] Hi All. My wired connection wouldn't work.

This just contributes to making the channel unreadable. If you are not answered, ask again later; but see also !repeat and !patience [17:01] what's the best way to use the alternate CD? burn it or mount the ISO? [17:01] Lunar_Lamp, the UUID has probably changed for the new kernel [17:01] tapas: htop is only showing me 262mb/2gb. [17:01] sorry ignore that [17:01] erUSUL ill try to understand [17:01] is anybody running the firefox 3.5(beta)? (sheritoko) and flashblock? [17:01] hi. i want to uninstall evolution. it says it will uninstall gnome-gdb as part of the uninstall.. is this ok? [17:02] h8red: well in 10 years you have come a long way [17:02] cousteau:mounting the iso works and you save a cd-r XD [17:02] daftykins: it doesn't look like it, as the UUID it references in the UUID of /dev/sda2 where the encrypted partition is /dev/sda2_crypt [17:02] i have a webserver which runs on hardy server edition. I have a domain like www.something.com. I installed wordpress. Iam able to see the blog on http://something.com but not on http://www.something.com. why is this? can anyone help me? [17:02] though i've try the GUI but so laggy to my pentium 3 800mhz [17:02] Anyone having any issues with the new flash plugin? [17:02] erUSUL: imagine I'm stupid and have already burned it [17:02] Lunar_Lamp, that will be for the current kernel though :) not in the eyes of the newer kernel [17:02] Dr_Willis, just for reference mate: theres an option in System > Prefs > Switch Desktop Mode to change between the usual desktop mode and quicklaunch option mode :) [17:02] (on a CD-RW) [17:02] Once I can sync my Blackberry up with Evolution, get a Acrobat quality PDF Editor, and be able to edit Word Perfect docs, I can finally completely ditch Windows [17:03] cousteau: then use the cd-r really there is no difference although HD can be faster than cdrom drives [17:03] daftykins: how do I find out what the new kernel thinks the UUID is? I don't have the blkid command available to me when I get dumped at the initramfs. Also, my fstab no longer has any UUIDs specified. [17:03] <[4-tea-2]> Ohkie: gnome-gdb or gnome-dbg? [17:03] what different about the alternate install disks? I am being recommended to use it, although i dotn fall under any of the conditions listed in the release.ubuntu.com/juanty directory listings [17:03] they say less chacne of 'failure' [17:03] !alternate | njustin [17:03] njustin: The Alternate CD is a classic text-mode install CD. It supports a wider range of hardware than the !LiveCD, and can also be used as an upgrade CD. Look for the link on the Ubuntu download page - See also !minimal [17:04] 4-tea-2: gnome-dbg yeah typo first time [17:04] is there anything I can check on my system regarding the lack of sound? thanks [17:04] ubottu: thank you :) [17:04] Sorry, I don't know anything about thank you :) [17:04] erUSUL what's the purpose of ebox anyway it didn't mention it on the link [17:04] <[4-tea-2]> Ohkie: yeah, get rid of it [17:04] Lunar_Lamp, you could backup your configs and reference static to devices instead of UUID to see if you can boot, then change to UUIDs once booted into a working config if you're happy renaming config files from tty / livecd though there's probably a better way. [17:04] lols new assignment again [17:04] omfg i didnt just do that [17:04] erUSUL: glad to see your still here you were a great help some years back [17:04] ahahaha [17:04] 4-tea-2: thanks [17:04] HI everyone, I'm about to install Ubuntu 9.04 but I notice the install differs from 8.10 -- I'm trying to have it install on the largest continuous free space but by default of the 50gb I have free, it says Ubuntu will only occupy 2gb? [17:04] Labutaw: is like webmin a web interface for administration of linux servers [17:04] i have a webserver which runs on hardy server edition. I have a domain like www.something.com. I installed wordpress. Iam able to see the blog on http://something.com but not on http://www.something.com. why is this? can anyone help me? [17:04] i have a webserver which runs on hardy server edition. I have a domain like www.something.com. I installed wordpress.

[17:05] krishnan: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. [17:05] that drive may need to be defragmented rantic [17:05] I unstalled Ubuntu 9.04 yesterday and this thing ROCKS! Good job and kudos to the devs :) [17:05] daftykins: my fstab already references /dev/sda1 etc rather than uuids [17:05] almost: i'm glad you still remember the helping hand XD [17:05] erUSUL: is like u can have a GUI in the command line |? [17:05] <[4-tea-2]> Ohkie: -dbg packages are mainly of importance for developers, they contain debugging symbols, I think. [17:05] evilbug: well, there you go [17:05] erUSUL: i got hacked using webmin.. so make sure you do a better job of locking it down. [17:05] but when this update for intel card will be availeble? my ubuntu desktop look like msDOS without compiz :( [17:05] Labutaw: you can install a gui in the server if you really like too [17:06] evilbug: show us the output of free -m [17:06] daftykins: I formatted the drive with XP less than 3 days ago, and purposely left 51gb left for Ubuntu. I do however notice that I can manually drag a slider to increase the free space it installs on. Would that be safe? [17:06] hmm something else must refer to it by UUID Lunar_Lamp , sorry i'm too inexperienced with encryption to know [17:06] erUSUL; yes it was with brezzey badger [17:06] hello ... i upgraded the xubuntu 8.10 to xubuntu 9 jaunty ... i have a keyboard that has some multimedia keys ..... the problem is that since i upgraded xubuntu the two buttons for incresing decreasing volume of system, do not work anymore... they do not respond.. does anyone know why ??? any solutions ??? [17:06] LadyNikon: i recomended not to use it. i'm helping Labutaw [17:06] where is Opera downloaded?Ubuntu9.04 [17:06] problems with broadcom 4318 [17:06] erUSUL: oh ok. I missed that [17:06] LadyNikon: /lastlog -regexp Labutaw [17:06] after I preformed a hard reset yesterday when I boot up, it hangs on a message kernel panic VFS unable to sync root etc. please help me [17:06] can i get kde without apt-get,synaptic,add/remove programs [17:06] erUSUL if i use GUI installation error especially using 8.0 im stuck only version 6 is working [17:06] erUSUL: i will take your word for it. [17:06] Any openvz users available? [17:06] do I have to defragment my hard drive and stuff? run system utilities like I did in windows? [17:06] almost: .... years have gone by... [17:07] im installing it at Compaq pentium 3 800 mhz [17:07] <[4-tea-2]> pragad: yes, but why? ;) [17:07] h8red: no [17:07] ok, trying to restart :) [17:07] rantic try using partition editor within the livecd to create partitions in that free area manually instead of through the installer to see if you have any better luck / options. the XP setup was how many partitions + what types out of interest? [17:07] Hello guys [17:07] sweet! Also, I don't know if I screwed up but I did this jaunty install in ext4 whatever that means [17:07] I have got problem with seting up 2 display configuration [17:07] hi [17:07] instead of the default 3 [17:07] tapas- total: 1998, used 1500, free 498, buffers 97, cached 1137 [17:07] Labutaw: you can install a gui from the installed system... jus do « sudo aptitude install ubuntu-desktop » to get the full desktop ubuntu gui [17:07] thats my xorg.conf http://pastie.org/458059 [17:08] newer and potentially more data-loss-prine h8red [17:08] *prone [17:08] do I get problems if I install catalyst9.3 in Jaunty? [17:08] h8red: thats the new filesystem, beware still some bugs... [17:08] Every time I start a terminal, $PWD is /. Why? [17:08] Labutaw: for a server maybe it is wiser to just install a window manager [17:08] [4-tea-2]because htose are slow [17:08] Why is scrollkeeper suddenly taking 80+ % of cpu #1 on my Hardy system.. it's never done this in the past. [17:08] My problem is: I got two screen displaying pulpit but there is no compiz, compiz dont work [17:08] can wine be run from command line on a server? [17:08] hmmm [17:08] Well, so far so good at least heh [17:09] window manager is diferent from GNOME right? [17:09] 4 tea [17:09] almost: well it needs a gui to dsiplay the window program... [17:09] don't keep anything important on it h8red :) [17:09] is it necessary that nvidia-180-libvdpau-de depends on nvidia-180-libvdpau ? because the -dev files have architecture all, however we can imagine that we want to build an application that supports vdpau, even if there is no nvidia support on a particular architecture [17:09] 4 tea how do i get kde [17:09] wow really it's that unstable? [17:09] yeah gnome == desktop environment Labutaw [17:09] well hell [17:09] Swistak, what graphics card? I'm running Twinview on my nvidia with compviz no problems. [17:09] window manager = metacity, compiz, kwin [17:09] Labutaw: gnome is Desktop envoirment it has file browser desktop icons and a lot of infrastructure [17:09] dooner, 7600 geforce [17:09] 4 tea u around [17:09] Swistak, are you using Twinview or xinerma ? [17:09] Swistak, i use nvidia 180 drivers on jaunty with 2 x DVI screens and twinview [17:10] compiz = fine [17:10] [4-tea-2], [17:10] so windows manager is just a GUI or Command line? [17:10] <[4-tea-2]> pragad: downloading a huge project like KDE will take a while, especially now when the Ubuntu servers might see a lot of load. Is that what you mean? Download takes a long time? [17:10] * Gnea clicks on the 'upgrade' button for to 9.04 [17:10] so windows manager is just a GUI for Command line? [17:10] oops [17:10] Gnea, good luck :) [17:10] dooner, I dont know, wait please [17:10] it's what draws the minimise/maximise/close and title bars etc Labutaw [17:10] Gnea, I think you'll enjoy it. [17:10] 4 tea yes [17:10] Labutaw: no you can run graphical programs in it [17:10] h00k: lol thanks [17:10] hello ... i upgraded the xubuntu 8.10 to xubuntu 9 jaunty ... i have a keyboard that has some multimedia keys ..... the problem is that since i upgraded xubuntu the two buttons for incresing decreasing volume of system, do not work anymore... they do not respond.. does anyone know why ??? any solutions ??? [17:10] darkness.irc.gr [17:11] Swistak, cause if you run xinerma no compviz, but switch to Twinview and it should work fine. [17:11] I designated a system specifically for upgrading distros - a week ago, this system was running 7.10 [17:11] 4 tea yes [17:11] q. how to change the default video player launched when i click on a .avi in nautilus ? [17:11] aws but i can't use GUI like gnome or kde im stuck during installation :( i wonder why also i try reinstall 2 days now [17:11] <[4-tea-2]> pragad: you could try different mirrors or just be patient. Other ways to get KDE (like building from source) might download faster, but it will take much longer when the download is finished. ;) [17:11] I guess it's normal for Linux to use so much ram, even though I'm not running many apps and everything seems really quick? [17:12] jetienne, right click properties on a file and change to "open with" tab [17:12] dooner, ok, i think i use xinerama, how to switch to twinview? [17:12] Swistak, hit alt+f2 then type "gksudo nvidia-settings" [17:12] i mean 2 days reinstalling and downloading distro iso [17:12] if i have installed a tar ball from source with./configure, make and make install how to uninstall that tar ball? [17:12] 4 tea i also have to 200 mb upgrades in the waiting list . what do i do [17:12] Swistak, what daftykins said .. [17:12] I have a compatibility question [17:12] Labutaw: you have the server installed ¿? then just do « sudo aptitude install ubuntu-desktop » and everything will be as if you have installed the dektop verson [17:13] h8red: it depends on what the distro is running - standard Ubuntu comes with Gnome, which is a known mem-muncher. if you'd like something that's less memory intensive, but still works well, you may want to consider xubuntu [17:13] Hello evryone. Can someone help me to connect to the internet with Speedtouch 330 in Ubuntu 9.04 [17:13] h8red, default Linux behaviour is to fill up RAM first so everything stays fast. then page afterwards [17:13] good day all:) [17:13] will Ubuntu 9.04 work with my ATI Mobility Radeon HD 36508 ? [17:13] (graphics card) [17:13] hi [17:13] hi [17:13] Gnea: Thanks, I'm quite happy with Gnome and things are still running very quick. I was just curious is all [17:13] dooner, daftykins: ok, I have this configuration dialog [17:13] EpicReviews: ive heard of issues with the fglrx drivers - bit thats nothing new. check the forums for that exact video card perhaps? [17:14] dooner, daftykins: just tick of enable xinerama? [17:14] EpicReviews: you have an extra digit in that model number, but yes, it should work with the proprietary driver [17:14] Swistak, change to "X Server Display Configuration" [17:14] The real test is going to be having NeroVision running in my XP VM convert some Xvid to DVD ISOs [17:14] @ Dr - are you in the Puppy Linux IRC room too? [17:14] click "Configure" by "configuration" Swistak [17:14] dooner, daftykins: configuration: separate x screen [configure] and next +> TwinView yes? [17:14] really? heheh k let me try the sweetness but i have'nt configure my network card for internet lols [17:14] yes Swistak [17:14] I have a rather major problem. Is anyone up for helping me with it? [17:14] h8red: :) there are some others out there who made a non-official distro called EliveCD, which uses Enlightenment - not sure that it's up to 8.10 or 9.04 spec yet, but it'll run on a system as slow as a 100mhz CPU and requires only 64Mb of ram [17:14] o [17:14] k [17:15] Swistak, now click apply? [17:15] nixpix, dont keep us guessing [17:15] any links for configuring network interfaces for commandline [17:15] both screens still ok Swistak ? [17:15] Labutaw, check out ifconfig [17:15] i meant step by step lols im still new [17:15] daftykins, as they was, no change [17:15] DMC: hows the coffee plantation going? [17:15] daftykins, I must reboot? [17:15] !ask > nixpix [17:15] nixpix, please see my private message [17:15] Labutaw, type 'man ifconfig' in a terminal window [17:15] keep the window open and try enabling desktop effects from system -> preferences -> appearance Swistak [17:16] the screens should have blinked? [17:16] Labutaw, it'll shhow you everything there is to know :) [17:16] How do I use apt-get from the command line to search for a package? [17:16] h00k i only see the lo [17:16] soppeng [17:16] whats exa or xaa ? [17:16] "apt-cache search x" where x is what you search for A [17:16] A: apt-cache search something [17:16] A: aptitude search string [17:16] Can someone help me, i went to install the updates for ubuntu this morning and my laptop locked up now when i try to install the updates it gives me an error and wants me to run a command as the superuser [17:16] hi my compiz stoped working after i upgraded to ubuntu 9.10 [17:16] daftykins, the composite extension is not available [17:16] but my interface not aappear [17:16] thanks [17:16] problems with broadcom 4318 wireless [17:16] hi my compiz stoped working after i upgraded to ubuntu 9.10 can any budy help me [17:16] Labutaw, the loopback, which means your network card isn't being recognized [17:17] 4-tea-2: 00:1b.0 Audio device: Intel Corporation 82801I (ICH9 Family) HD Audio Controller (rev 03) so try googling HD audio Controller ubuntu?

[17:17] so what should i do to recognize my lan [17:17] :) [17:17] Labutaw, you'd have to figure out which network card you have [17:17] again another taking notes [17:17] Labutaw: lspci | grep -i net [17:17] heheh [17:17] Labutaw, and make sure its supported [17:17] crdlb yes its ubuntu 9.04 typing mistake gpu is intel [17:17] dpkg --configure -a how do i run that as the superuser ? [17:18] !sudo | TunnlRat [17:18] TunnlRat: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more information. For graphical applications see !gksu (Gnome, XFCE), or !kdesudo (KDE) [17:18] TunnlRat, in the terminal add 'sudo' before it [17:18] daftykins, http://wstaw.org/d/7c30 [17:18] ahhh i see thank you [17:18] java: compiz is disabled by default for intel cards [17:18] Hi [17:18] java: a GMA965 of some sort (ie an X3000 or up)?

[17:19] ok [17:19] my graphics drivers have seemingly stopped working since I updated from 8.04 to 8.10, and ubuntu refuses to start with kernels 2.6.28-11 and 2.6.27-11, presumably for the same reason as it refuses to run advanced graphics in 2.6.24-33 and 2.6.22-14 [17:19] crdlb its x3100 [17:19] Labutaw, lspci, yeah [17:19] Perfect that worked thank you thank you!!!!

[17:21] java: it can be overridden, see /msg fusiobot blacklist [17:21] meoblast001: i use 29 on intrepid and works fine [17:21] daftykins, Twinview I think does that but once you have xinerma set it needs to restart x to unload it.

[17:28] crdlb ok i did what the ubot said now do i need to relogin [17:28] winter: yeah, it only works for pidgin here too. supposedly the volume control uses the same interface but mine isn't. it's using gnome's. or gtk's, whichever.

[17:29] jpnub: the UBuntu kernel guide is quite good [17:29] but i was expecting that === Phoenix87 is now known as PhoenAWAY [17:29] LurkersA: Ok but the fefault usplash is not included in the list [17:29] and sir erUSUL im not going to use GUI heheh kinda smoth runing to my pentium 3 800mhz [17:29] during the boot, is Ubuntu supposed to show some text (boot messages) after the progress bar completes and before the splash screen appears? [17:29] user___: mouse every thing stops working, only a reset will help [17:29] echo6_ maybe i'll give it a shot :) [17:29] spirited: RIAA.com? [17:29] ;) [17:29] (also, while i'm on the subject, it still has a hard time with my motherboard... no worse than slackware, though, and it actually boots which is an improvement over 8.10) [17:30] thanks will try that. [17:30] crdlb ok it worked thanks [17:30] spirited: that was a joke [17:30] jpnub: Enjoy! there are some guides on the forum as well, usually I do lspci lshal to enumerate the hardware I have on the box [17:30] Labutaw: maybe if you are going to use this machine only as a router you can use some distro oriented only to be routers... like ipcop zeroshell shorewall etc [17:30] crdlb thanks :) [17:30] spirited: SCNR [17:30] jpnub: then strip out the modules I dont need [17:30] oh noes.:) [17:30] jpnub: occassionally I apply patches [17:30] ok thanks [17:31] echo6, sounds like a good idea...thanks [17:31] any logs i can look at ? [17:31] timo: ok, reboot and then have a look at /var/log/messages. [17:31] jpnub: take a peek at make-kpkg + all its dependencies, it is actually very good and provides a means to build debian packages for kernel images/headers [17:31] timo: use the tail command.. === Mark_Milliman is now known as Mark_M|Away [17:31] routers... like ipcop zeroshell shorewall etc <== aws another alien is that a distro? i also plan for my dns server at freedns coz it says also support DDNS [17:32] yeh tail -f [17:32] erUSUL: routers... like ipcop zeroshell shorewall etc <== aws another alien is that a distro? i also plan for my dns server at freedns coz it says also support DDNS [17:32] echo6_ yea that does look useful :) [17:33] i'm trying to code with qt and coin3d... the latest versions are not in the repository - is it a bad idea to do a manual install by downloading from the source's site? [17:33] I think it might be pulseaudio >:o [17:33] I need some general help *ubuntu-wise, and apparently nobody knows in #Kubuntu [17:34] Nvm [17:34] sorry, how i can enter on ubuntu.it? [17:34] michele86: /join #ubuntu.it [17:34] how can I recover/change my password for su? [17:35] randomusr: don't use su, use sudo === brucebarton_ is now known as Out_Cold [17:35] gordonjcp, trying to install hotwayd and it recommends using su [17:35] randomusr: ubuntu doesn't use su [17:35] randomusr: It's confused (those instructions aren't necessarily for ubuntu). use sudo. [17:35] have people been getting along with the 9.04? [17:35] gordonjcp: Then prefix any commands which require administrative rights with "sudo" [17:35] sudo [17:36] JordanC: yes, I know [17:36] su is disabled [17:36] <[4-tea-2]> gordonjcp: then follow that advice [17:36] I'm using firefox 3.0.9 on Ubuntu 9.04, and it lags scrolling and selecting new tabs. Smooth scrolling is off. Anyone know how to fix? [17:36] what about No Rule for make install? [17:36] [4-tea-2]: can you read? [17:36] [4-tea-2]: I was telling randomusr not to use su [17:36] right [17:36] well I would get along with it alot better if it would upgrade my OS using the files from the alternate install dvd and not the internet [17:36] gordonjcp, trying to install hotwayd and it recommends using su [17:36] <[4-tea-2]> gordonjcp: srz, mishap ;) [17:37] JordanC: then, as Flannel said, those instructions aren't entirely suitable for Ubuntu [17:37] JordanC, what's the error , no rule for make target install [17:37] Hello [17:37] JordanC: bear in mind that I've been using sudo for about as long as I've been using Unix ;-) [17:37] salut comment faire pour installe ma web cam? [17:37] the alternate install dvd has a default option to use the internet to download packages whether you click yes or no when the upgrade option box pops up after installing the dvd [17:37] Im having a small graphics problem [17:37] gordonjcp, beer in mind... thats a good idea :) [17:37] gordon: I didn't know that sudo was so old :P [17:37] Hiya, firefox works poorly, when i scroll it takes a while to scroll through pages as if my comp is really bad. I am already using swiftfox. What can i do for firefox (and flash) to work properly? [17:38] if you have an internet connection it will use it whether you tell it to or not [17:38] Does TF2 work through wine? [17:38] even if you think you are selecting the option to tell it not to [17:38] ok so, does anyone know what it means to get the error, no rule to make target "install"? [17:38] The card is a 3dfx Voodoo 3 [17:38] gordonjcp: Are you trying to install hotwayd? [17:38] DASPRiD: couple of weeks yet until the beer is ready ;-) [17:38] JordanC: no [17:38] And its on Xubuntu [17:38] JordanC: I've never even heard of hotwayd [17:38] JordanC No I am [17:39] randomusr, that sounds like a config file error or something to that effect [17:39] Is there a way to set video refresh rate from the command line? [17:39] Oops, wrong user :D [17:39] Can somebody help? [17:39] Polterg|st I agree, but don't know what packages I might be missing. [17:40] this is kind of like false advertising if I cannot upgrade using the CD files instead of the net [17:40] Polterg|st I suspect that it's something to do the zlib or libxml versions that I'm using [17:40] huh? [17:40] hello? [17:40] I installed Ubuntu 9.04 and I have Intel mobile GM965/GL960 VGA, I'm unable to enable visual effects, on Ubuntu 8.10 it was working. [17:40] hello [17:40] gah why do i not get a swedish layout even tho ive put swedish in the keyboard layout thingie _ [17:40] ? [17:40] I have 2 ubuntu 9.04 dvds and ironically with both of them I cannot upgrade my OS to 9.04 [17:40] topsyandpip56: You'll have to give a tad more information before someone will be able to help you [17:40] [17:41] not from my computer anyway [17:41] it is forcing me to use a net connection [17:41] hacked_kernel: http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/releasenotes/904#Display%2520freezes%2520with%2520Intel%2520graphics%2520cards [17:41] hacked_kernel: They are blacklisted since they can cause serious crashes [17:41] hi [17:41] hacked_kernel: sad but true... [17:41] i've been using slocate for years [17:41] Oh, well, All 3D stuff is extremely laggy, meaning the wrong driver is running, and the max resoloution is 800x600 [17:41] slocate is no longer included in jaunty [17:41] hey all -- just upgraded to jaunty and now the LUKS passphrase does not appear. it just sits there doing the knight-rider thing, no disc activity. [17:41] how do i find files on my pc from the cmd line? [17:41] Hiya, firefox works poorly, when i scroll it takes a while to scroll through pages as if my comp is really bad. I am already using swiftfox. What can i do for firefox (and flash) to work properly? [17:41] i installed ubuntu 8.10 as an persistent installation on a usb-drive, but when I boot it up, a white screen comes up and that's it. someone know how to fix it? [17:41] whoa === garba is now known as Guest63354 [17:41] is there a way to see messages during boot instead of progress bar? [17:42] On its original OS (Windows 98) it could go up to 1024x768 [17:42] And 3D worked [17:42] ph8: man locate [17:42] Its Xubuntu 8.04 [17:42] I don't know why I have to wait 2 more days to upgrade my OS on dialup when I have the ___________ dvd's right here in front of me [17:42] frustrating [17:42] soulnafein: yes, in grub edit the entry you use to boot ('e'), second line down usually the kernel line - press 'e' to edit that after scrolling to it, something like 'ro quiet splash' will be there [17:42] take away the quiet and splash (quiet and splashscreen) options [17:42] man i hate the Herculean effort you have to make to find a md5 for kubuntu [17:42] and press 'b' to boot [17:42] Any more information you need? [17:42] <[4-tea-2]> Ultraputz: your / is encrypted? [17:42] that is not logical to design an upgrade this way [17:43] ph8: thanks [17:43] soulnafein edit menu.lst and remove the "quiet" and "splash" bits... or just press ctrl+alt+f1 during boot... [17:43] Hello. [17:43] [4-tea-2] -- yeah [17:43] what was called the software support to use the m6 ly, svideo out ? [17:43] how can i find out if my graphics card has its drivers installed for ubunutu? [17:43] guys is there a way to change how long these new notifications in jaunty stays on the screen? [17:43] user___: I found noting in /var/log/system [17:43] Polterge|st: Sorry man I don't think you can really get by with dialup and this OS [17:43] Are the jaunty update servers down for anyone else? [17:43] any other ideas? [17:43] Hello? [17:43] [4-tea-2] --it dropped after a few minutes and said it couldn't find the (enc.) volume and now it's dropped me to busybox [17:43] h8red, you can but it will take a looooooooooooooong time [17:44] and if not well I guess it is good enough reason to switch to primarily using a mac [17:44] <[4-tea-2]> Ultraputz: then I can't help, I was too scared to encrypt / and went for /home and /var instead. [17:44] [4-tea-2] --alert /dev/disk/by-uuid/ " " " does not exist [17:44] topsyandpip56: I'm guessing that it isn't going to that resolution? [17:44] Polterge|st: or another distro of Linux [17:44] No, its not even in the list [17:44] nope a mac [17:44] Are the jaunty update servers down for anyone else? [17:44] Polterge|st: many things are moving to high speed internet [17:44] yuck [17:44] the top says: 800x600@56hz [17:44] I'm going to be burnt out after Ubuntu [17:44] guys, i have download a file here, when i type "./configure" work fine, but when i type " make" show some erros....why guys? [17:44] gah why do i not get a swedish layout even tho ive put swedish in the keyboard layout thingie _ anyone? [17:45] what i need? [17:45] if the best distro on the net can't give me what I need ... [17:45] <[4-tea-2]> Ultraputz: that's the second time in a few hours I see someone complaining about that message. [17:45] I doubt another will [17:45] And the driver isnt running propery [17:45] [4-tea-2] --you can't actually encrypt / because there has to be something to boot from. [17:45] let me ask you guys... i want a 3 monitor setup.. how do i do it? dual header vid card + 1 additional vid card? [17:45] *properly [17:45] PlasmaSheep: I'm able to update lists all right [17:45] skeletal: It will tell you in the error [17:45] Polterge|st, Ubuntu isn't the best distro. [17:45] so there's a tiny little bootstrap, then it loads the tools to encyrpted the disc and boot normally [17:45] ienorand: thanks [17:45] <[4-tea-2]> Ultraputz: well, you could leave /boot unencrypted and use an initrd image. [17:45] ok [17:45] that's kind of how this works [17:45] topsyandpip56: Any chance you can give more specific information? "Isn't running properly", "Doesn't work" aren't that great at illustrating the problem [17:45] but you still have to unlock the disc to get to /home and so on [17:45] Polterge|st: best is subjective [17:46] salut [17:46] ubuntu 9.04 doesn't seem to have shutdown/restart icon [17:46] ienorand: Look what I get (part of it) when I do update: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/158035/ [17:46] but if you have the money and can afford mac hardware and software go for it [17:46] skeletal, we can't help u if you are not able to paste us the error [17:46] !fr [17:46] Ce canal est en anglais uniquement. Si vous avez besoin d'aide ou voulez discuter en francais, merci de rejoindre #ubuntu-fr [17:46] Im using a 3dfx Voodoo 3 card in a old machine, now with Xubuntu 8.04. The maximum resoloution seems to be 800x600, and the driver is not running even though I have installed it, [17:46] cheekee, It's in the user switcher. [17:46] I've been extremely patient and am doing my best to wait 2 or 3 "more" days to update my OS [17:46] Just because my display is working, does it mean my graphics card drivers are installed properly? [17:46] because that is what it will take at the very least to get it upgraded [17:46] curses PlasmaSheep got it before me [17:47] <[4-tea-2]> Ultraputz: as I said, I was too scared to try that in the first place. All the info I can give is, that other people have the same problem, perhaps check launchpad? [17:47] topsyandpip56: Okay, which driver? [17:47] sa [17:47] libflide [17:47] *libglide [17:47] Ciros: :D [17:47] Hokay [17:47] TonyTheTiger: nope === Argus1 is now known as Remus3 [17:47] salut [17:47] hi Remus [17:47] h8red, And would missing gfx drivers cause a sluggish firefox? [17:48] So, does anybody know how to fix it? [17:48] TonyTheTiger: I don't know about that, but you should check to make sure your video drivers are installed right. If FFox was sluggish my first guess would be you need more ram [17:48] topsyandpip56: Yeah, have you checked your xorg configs? [17:48] hi [17:48] Yes, but the xorg in 8.04 is different [17:49] h8red, I have enough ram, i susspect its the drivers as its mainly the rendering of firefox thats slow i.e scrolling. [17:49] what kinda vid card? [17:49] its a laptop and some built in ati card [17:49] hmmm, there seem to be an unusually large amount of visible bugs in this release : [17:49] PlasmaSheep: I've got no idea, you could try switching upgrade mirror I guess, that's mine > http://www.mibbit.com/pb/0jQFKH it seems to ign (ignore?) some of the ones you had problems with... [17:49] TonyTheTiger: if it's the Rage 200M, ATI support for the Linux driver has tailed off and the new Linux drivers don't support 3D. that would explain it. [17:50] * Polterge|st shakes his head .... next time make the distro upgradeable from the DVD [17:50] please please please [17:50] Polterge|st: if you use the "alternate" disc it is [17:50] if you do anything at all next time to make it better [17:50] do that [17:50] Polterge|st: It is? er, should be. [17:50] PhotoJim, I have both no it is not [17:50] it says it is [17:50] Polterge|st: You don't boot to the CD, you put the CD in afterwards. [17:50] ienorand: why does it return 404's? [17:50] but it doesn't do it that way [17:50] PhotoJim, Yes i think it one of those 200m but might be an express. [17:50] Polterge|st: maybe the DVD is broken. did you try the alternate CD? [17:50] Flannel, that is what I did [17:50] I put it in afterward [17:50] alternate CD [17:50] TonyTheTiger: that is very likely your issue. open source support will come. they're working on it. but it's not here yet. [17:50] yes [17:51] in a custom script, how do I assign a file with a pathname to a variable? [17:51] TonyTheTiger: try System > Administraton > Hardware drivers [17:51] I just upgraded to 9.04 and now I can't watch videos with any program [17:51] it asks if I want to upgrade from the dvd [17:51] see if there's something there for you to enable [17:51] GAAH WHAT IS WRONG WITH T HIS OS [17:51] Hey, I was wondering, is there a way to remove, purge and reinstall libgtk2.0-0 without it removing every GTK program installed? [17:51] and then it starts downloading friggin packages [17:51] why cant i freakin change keyboard layout? [17:51] frustrating [17:51] I keep getting "badalloc insufficient resources for operation ubuntu" errors [17:51] when all the packages are right there on the dvd [17:51] PlasmaSheep: Honestly, I don't know [17:51] Hello? [17:51] Polterge|st: It will download some packages, you don't have *every* package on the DVD. [17:51] Please! This problem is really annoying! [17:52] !patience > topsyandpip56 [17:52] topsyandpip56, please see my private message [17:52] MrSunshine_: does it not work thorough perfs menu?

[17:53] Polterge|st: It'll tell you it needs all of the packages, and then it'll "download" the ones it has from theCD [17:53] please someone tell me it was designed a little better than what I'm thinking it is going to do [17:53] I'm trying to find the problem but I cannot find it,.... [17:53] ienorand, i had to add the same layout again and then remove the old one (both swedish) and now it worked [17:53] Anyone know why xfce isn't showing the pretty new notifications, instead of the old oes? [17:53] Polterge|st: Please stop using the enter key as punctuation. [17:53] topsyandpip56, : some progress at your end ? [17:53] how do i tell usplash that just because nVidia drivers are slow to load, it doesn't need to kill itself [17:53] i'm suspiscious that my ubuntu maximum brightness is not the actual max brightness [17:53] Sirius: No, sorry! [17:53] how can i check [17:53] MrSunshine_: Odd...

Just upgraded to 9.04. The animation of virtual desktop changes feels more sluggish, like the frame rate dropped. Reconfiged xorg and checked settings. Didn't find anything. Anyone else? [17:55] eland25: thanks i'll try it out [17:55] dassouki: You (likely) can disable that in your BIOS (the 'max brightness' being lower on battery) [17:55] Wow I'm actually using some of my swap file [17:55] how long does this thing take to download? [17:55] umm were you talking PHP? I suddenly realize my lack of focus [17:55] disown: What's your vid card and drive? [17:55] h8red, i'm not in the mood for games now..

[18:08] randomusr, for instance it should install the files from the dvd first before ever using a network connection and then search the net if a connection is available as a 2ndary thing [18:09] gianni: tell [18:09] Dr_Willis: I can't use any graphical programs with sudo because it gives me a segfault, and my error logs all point to a .so file that's created by libgtk2.0-0 [18:09] and "then" it should look for newer versions of some of the packages [18:09] defrysk, can you actually confirm its available ? [18:09] russianzilla: and 'opening' it is supposed to do what excatly? Perhaps reinstall it. MIGHT fix somthing. [18:09] whats the application to use tv out ( svideo ) for the mobility readeon m6 ly ? [18:09] randomusr, I have too much valuable stuff to lose and not enough space to back it all up [18:09] russianzilla: you do realiuze that with Graphical apps you should NOT be using sudo, but use 'gksudo' ? [18:09] Dr_Willis: I've tried reinstalling it at least five times now, including deleting the file and letting the package replace it. No good. [18:10] !sudo [18:10] sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more information. For graphical applications see !gksu (Gnome, XFCE), or !kdesudo (KDE) [18:10] Polterg|st, have you experienced any dependancy issues due to the order in where it checks for packages upon install? [18:10] russianzilla: gksu, or kdesudo [18:10] only 3 that said they would no longer be supported, randomusr [18:10] why can't ubuntu web site manage to make a torrent work ? [18:10] zap0, whats available ? [18:10] other than that it is downloading every package even though I have the alternate DVD [18:10] zap0: the torrent worked here for me fine [18:10] Dr_Willis: I realize that, but gksudo is broken too. [18:10] nobody can help me? [18:10] russianzilla: sounds like you may have deeper issues then. [18:11] Dr_Willis: As is gksu. [18:11] skeletal: what is the problem? [18:11] Dr_Willis, can you make it available to me ? [18:11] zap0, you need a torrent client [18:11] i need the .torrent first. [18:11] zap0: i dident keep the .torrent file. I saw it on many other tracker/torrent search sites also [18:11] How's the server load today? [18:11] zap0: O_o [18:11] how can i find out what my graphics card is on my laptop with ubunutu? (driver isnt installed yet but need to know model so i can install it) [18:11] I was getting a single iso file in about 6 min. i think [18:11] TonyTheTiger: lspci |grep VGA [18:11] zap0, first the client, then you can download it [18:11] I suppose that can create some unneeded traffic and slow the system Polterg|st [18:11] Paddy_EIRE, the file i get was not a valid torrent file... the ubuntu web site is broken. [18:11] what would be a good amount of ram to give to a Win XP Guest VM [18:12] zap0: you want the alternative install for i386? [18:12] damn [18:12] TonyTheTiger: lspci | grep VGA [18:12] ok === Mark_Milliman is now known as Mark_M|Away [18:12] I'm thinking of giving it a gig [18:12] zap0: its not..

[18:12] http://releases.ubuntu.com/9.04/ubuntu-9.04-desktop-i386.iso.torrent [18:12] Polterg|st, maybe they'll do a refresh? [18:12] worked for me [18:12] I have nothing against 9.04 I just think the update process could be tweaked a little bit for the purpose of speed being the first priority and updating to the very latest packages if a network connection is available being the second priority [18:12] h8red, i have it running on 512 [18:12] zap0: oh I thought you where asking Dr_Willis for the alternate cd [18:12] randomusr, maybe I dunno [18:12] -_- [18:12] ok [18:12] alt cd is also at that site. [18:12] :) [18:13] So guy, i have problema with StarDict [18:13] * pronoy_ is happy that jaunty is such a success [18:13] Polterg|st, what can ya do?

[18:19] nfrs: you might have more luck in #kubuntu then [18:19] yeah I know what you mean [18:19] zap0: it'll be another moment as mediafire take forever to upload to even with simple text files [18:19] keonne: why don't you go for an upgrade ? [18:19] I like the media features in Ubuntu personally so I'm hoping this isn't a common problem [18:19] I want to add Windows 7 to the dual boot. Is this possible to do? Will it mess up Wubi? [18:19] ok im going to reboot [18:19] ripps thanks for the information [18:19] pronoy_: I have Xubuntu 8.04 [18:19] gianni: and what letter is that? [18:19] keonne: so ??

[18:20] which location is best to download ubuntu 9.04? i download new ubuntu 2 times but it has some check sum errors, [18:20] keonne: hmm....i'll check for the clean install using command line....for upgrading check the channel topic [18:20] ok [18:20] Oprtz: use the torrents.. they are faster then the download servers [18:21] keonne: You have two separate things going on. You need to convert to Ubuntu, and upgrade. (In any order). Also, you'll need to upgrade to 8.10 and then to 9.04 [18:21] i'm tryin gto upgrade to 9.04, but my terminal says i have no spcae left on device, how can i check how much is left om the diskwhere the /tmp/ folder is ion?

Will try UXA accel method and reboot. brb [18:21] I've recently found a bug and want to make sure it's affecting everyone [18:21] gianni: so you mean to say any time you hit the 'r' key the ubuntu system crashes? or reboots? or does what exactly? Does this also affect teh CONSOLE? [18:22] nfrs: I'm sure it's in the kde control panel somehwere, I just have no idea where :/ [18:22] cashes [18:22] Flannel , keonne: i have nothing on installing jaunty fresh using command line [18:22] anyone know the default password for u: ubuntu on 9.04 LiveCD's ??? [18:22] not boots [18:22] gianni: i would try the console, and a different keyboard for starters. [18:22] Flannel: So first I will upgrade Xubuntu to 8.10, then convert xubuntu to ubuntu, and then upgrade to 9.04? [18:22] nnull: there is no passwd for the user ubuntu on live CD - just press enter [18:22] zap0: http://drop.io/Paddy_EIRE# [18:22] Does 9.04 have anything that would make it I could not mount a drive from 8.04? === nihil_ is now known as Guest67424 [18:22] console? [18:23] guys where can i get to the restricted driver manager option? its not in system > administration :s [18:23] gianni: yes. the alt-ctrl-f1 cosoles.. [18:23] I have a bunch of files on a drive that I can see but it won't let me play them [18:23] keonne: That would work. [18:23] help afte configure my etc/network/interfaces how will i know that i have the internet connection [18:23] hi all is the ubuntu latest stable to try? [18:23] TonyTheTiger: its called hardware-drivers now it seems [18:23] pronoy_: Define "command line"? [18:23] it says /dev/sdb5/ uses 50 of 54 gb available,. but i hardly have anything on it [18:23] TonyTheTiger: hardware driver.....system > admin [18:23] zap0: did that work? [18:23] help afte configure my etc/network/interfaces how will i know that i have the internet connection? [18:23] still waiting for it to load. [18:23] Flannel: Thank you. Is there a guide to convert xubuntu to ubuntu or it is a simple process? [18:23] Dr_Willis and pronoy thanks. [18:23] Polterge|st: Thanks, problem solved :) [18:24] man, sucks that i can't just see the physical drives [18:24] julius: yep. [18:24] !puregnome | keonne [18:24] keonne: If you want to remove all !KDE packages, type « sudo apt-get remove kdelibs4c2 ; sudo apt-get remove kdelibs5 ; sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop » [18:24] julius: as always, when in doubt, try a livecd first [18:24] thanx [18:24] Flannel: as keonne said......the gui fails when the cd is booted [18:24] raazman, I thought that might help [18:24] Polterge|st: A simple reboot fixed it [18:24] keonne: Er, that factoid... is wrong now. [18:24] keonne: Give me a sec [18:24] TonyTheTiger: i always run it from 'jockey-gtk' they never change that :) [18:24] julius: Just don't use ext4 for now [18:24] :) [18:24] np [18:24] Polterge|st: yup [18:24] Flannel: OK === nihil__ is now known as __Nihil_ [18:24] how do I find out, which graphics driver is used? (jaunty) [18:24] Labutaw: ipconfig? [18:24] how can i see physical drives a'la windows in [18:24] pronoy_: im just going to upgrade for simplicity sake [18:24] keonne: http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/puregnome [18:24] ubuntu? [18:24] pronoy_: so, use the alternate CD? [18:25] cnus8n, using openssh its not accepting it [18:25] attila_: it automatically detects according to your vga [18:25] raazman, sometimes it has to reference certain libs I think before logging into X [18:25] I think it has something to do with the priority that things are loaded [18:25] attila_: Go to System, Administration, Hardware drivers [18:25] attila_: 'glxinfo | grep renderer' will give a hint [18:25] Flannel: alternate cd ?? how will that help ? [18:25] after I upgraded to Jaunty I can't watch my videos through vlc or any video player. [18:25] sudo apt-get remove --purge kubuntu-desktop [18:25] pronoy_: Because it doesn't have a GUI? [18:25] Polterge|st: But it was playing music, but why distorted? [18:25] sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop [18:25] when I go to do a dist-upgrade it wants to remove a whole lot of useful packages, is there any way to tell it to leave them alone? [18:26] keonne: check Flannel's reply [18:26] the alternative CD? [18:26] raazman, that might have been a dependency error [18:26] keonne: Yeah. [18:26] hi there [18:26] or possibly something dealing with memory [18:26] keonne try the one i said above [18:26] Polterge|st: ahhh ok [18:26] dw all good [18:26] Hi all i have my 8.04 box running mdadm raid 1 for the system drives both have a /boot on them so that if either fail the system will still boot. I want to perform and upgrade to 9.04 meaning i have two upgrades to do 8.04 - 8.10 - 9.04. I don't want to risk loosing my system so i have removed one half of my raid 1 mirror and now started the upgrade process (still running now). My Question is....... Once the upgrade is complete how will the remerging of the m [18:26] Polterge|st: well thanks for that. I would have been sitting here trying to figure it out and probably realize it the next day. [18:27] I need some help regarding which file system to use. I am installing ubuntu and i am not such which file system to use [18:27] ok i will try the alt CD [18:27] raazman, it is likely that there could have been a memory leak or something that was needed such as a certain lib might not have been referenced or loaded correctly [18:27] is there a way i can make the system run a script after everything else has booted up? [18:27] ext3 or Ext4 [18:27] I'm just guessing though [18:27] and then if that dosent work I will try to upgrade [18:27] thanks guys [18:27] raazman, hehe I've had similar problems before [18:27] Anyone else here experienced a problem where the whole system freezed and doesn't respond to anything from mouse or keyboard after only the monitor has been turned off? [18:27] crdlb, "OpenGL renderer string: Mesa DRI R300 20060815 AGP 8x TCL". Cant see the driver in this string :) [18:27] BCMM_: rc.local is often used for that. [18:27] BadRobot: ext3 or 4 mounted at / [18:27] Dr_Willis, where is that? [18:27] BCMM_: in /etc/ where its been for years. :) [18:27] attila_: that means your using the opensource ati drivers [18:27] Polterge|st: ahh ok gotcha. [18:27] BCMM_: does it ahve to be exact? if not, start a script in rc.local with "sleep " [18:27] attila_: you're using the radeon driver [18:28] BCMM_: where most configs are at. [18:28] Yeo I know,but which do you guys recommend EXT3 or EXT4? [18:28] hateball, is rc.local not actually after everything else then? [18:28] zap0: hello... did you get that? [18:28] BadRobot: i guess ext3 is the one i am on [18:28] BadRobot: ext3, some issues still pop up regarding ext4 [18:28] does the aspire one wifi work [18:28] ? [18:28] is ext4 considered stable yet? [18:28] BadRobot, ext4 is newer and faster [18:28] BCMM_: yes [18:28] ext3 was the filesystem in 8.10 [18:28] thx [18:28] ext3 is more stable probably [18:28] hello can anyone help me install my graphics card via the command line? [18:29] BCMM_: yes, but that doesn't mean there aren't a few bugs here and there. [18:29] BCMM_: Well, GDM starts etc... I'm not sure what you consider "everything" :) [18:29] ext4 is faster and better for file transfers if I'm not mistaken [18:29] Paddy_EIRE, yes thanks. download the iso now... finally! [18:29] ripps, crdlb thx [18:29] TonyTheTiger: just install the debian package of the corrosponding vga [18:29] better for large file transfers rather [18:29] TonyTheTiger: what's you card? [18:29] wow, i shouldh've been paying attention, i've just formatted some big hard drives [18:29] how do i find out which drive label my usb drive is using? [18:29] does any one here have ssh server runing ? [18:29] like sda sdb etc [18:29] theuser1: ssh run fine here. [18:29] xpress radeon 200m [18:29] if I had a second hard drive under 8.04 and I mount it as a second hard drive under 9.04 will it still work? [18:30] Lossif: should. [18:30] fwaokda: run "dmesg" in a terminal when you insert it [18:30] what do i need to be able to play .aac files in rythmbox in ubuntu? wiki mentions gstreamer-plugins-bad but i already have all the gstreamer packages [18:30] k thanks [18:30] pronoy_, im behing a proxy lan so installing stuff with a gui doesnt work too well. I have set up the command line properly so thats how i gotta do it. [18:30] what is the netbook remix like? [18:30] Dr_Willis: fstab looks different [18:30] Dr_Willis: can i poke in . just for testing [18:30] kyle_: nice in aways annoying in others. [18:30] I'm getting "badalloc insufficient resources for operation" errors when trying to play videos in any player after upgrading to Jaunty. [18:30] Lossif: try mounting it by hand.. it should have a rather normal standard fstab entry. [18:30] ripps, xpress radeon 200m ATI [18:31] thx you guys [18:31] TonyTheTiger: sudo apt-get install [18:31] what is netbook remix like? [18:31] so should I stick with ext3 then? [18:31] Dr_Willis: well I tried. and when I try to share it it says I don't have permission [18:31] what is netbook remix like? [18:31] what is netbook remix like? [18:31] what is netbook remix like? [18:31] pronoy_, I know that much (thank god) but the package names and installing a gfx driver i would imagine is slightly more complicated. [18:31] kyle_: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. [18:31] kyle_: care to carify? You can install the remix on a normal desktop if you want to see how it 'feels' [18:31] I could be wrong though. [18:31] anyone run into skype audio problems after running gnome mplayer? [18:31] Dr_Willis: or try watch any videos off it [18:31] BadRobot: you need to decide that on your own bro......... its like asking what's better gnome or kde [18:32] kyle_: its like a huge fluffy marshmellow with eyes. [18:32] TonyTheTiger..hang on [18:32] what is netbook remix like? [18:32] Lossif: its ext2 or ext3 you MUST set the owner/permissions properly on it.. [18:32] blarg [18:32] BadRobot, do you prefer stability or do you prefer cutting edge software and speed ? [18:32] what's a good tutorial on audio? [18:32] well, both [18:32] Dr_Willis: it is ext3, how do I do that? [18:32] hello , i am having a problem with my cd drive , it shows any cd as a blank cd i want to install 9.04 ( iam currently on LTS ) , therror it shows when i try to bvrowse the disc on nautilus is Could not open location 'burn:///' " help would be much appreciated [18:32] btw BadRobot at some point ext4 will become as stable or more stable than ext3 [18:33] Lossif: with the chmod and chown commands normally. [18:33] if i use oss i can get sound, but then there's no software mixing so it only shows up in one program [18:33] but I need a fast file system, but which does mess up with my HDD [18:33] Lossif: they need to be owned by the user you want to access them [18:33] it wouldn't hurt to try ext4 BadRobot there were data loss problems but I think that was patched [18:33] BadRobot: if you are ready for experimentation go for ext4 rely on stability then ext3 [18:33] BadRobot, just make sure you use a partition larger than 4 gb [18:33] Polterge|st: they were "patched" [18:33] ext4 has a semi-broken design [18:33] from what i understand [18:34] * winter__ is trying ext4, though [18:34] winter__, exactly [18:34] I just install Ubuntu 9.04 and I can't connect to the internet with Speedtouch 330 . Did anyone connect with this type of modem? [18:34] I am thinking about trying it too [18:34] my update to jaunty has failed because my laptop has powered off, then i got a syntax error in /var/lib/dpkg/status, which i replaced by status-old to continue the install, but i'm losing the following processes, how to know what should be done after this step ? [18:34] hi - (how) is it possible to show fullscreen video ONLY on an external screen also with several virtual desks? - tnx... [18:34] if winter__ is right then i guess BadRobot you should stick to ext3 for now [18:34] for me [18:34] hi all where is the thunderbird .def folder in ubuntu 9.04? [18:34] i just used sudo apt-get update to update to 9.04 from 9.04 beta...how can i confirm that update is done? [18:34] i like xfs :P [18:34] I may use ext3 and upgrade to ext4 when it is more stable [18:34] !final | kaushikiitd [18:34] kaushikiitd: If you installed a Alpha/Beta/RC version of Ubuntu 9.04 (Jaunty Jackalope) and have been keeping it up to date, then you are already running the latest version of Jaunty. To make sure, type « sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade » in a console. [18:34] i was sold on xfs when it was able to revive itself after a drive was totally scrambled [18:34] raven: on my nvidia/twinview setup. I just drag the video player to the 2nd monitor and fullscreen it. [18:34] ubottu, i am having a problem with my cd drive , it shows any cd as a blank cd i want to install 9.04 ( iam currently on LTS ) , therror it shows when i try to bvrowse the disc on nautilus is Could not open location 'burn:/// [18:34] Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) [18:34] (partition table cooked, etc) [18:34] I don't know much about XFS [18:35] I haven't ever used XFS before [18:35] zakirs: ubottu is a 'bot' :) not a person [18:35] TonyTheTiger: check this http://wiki.cchtml.com/index.php/Ubuntu_Gutsy_Installation_Guide#Method_2:_Install_the_Catalyst_8.1_Driver_Manually [18:35] Polterge|st: it's EXTREMELY reliable in my experience [18:35] !XFS | Polterge|st [18:35] Polterge|st: xfs 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/XFS [18:35] Dr_Willis, phail :| [18:35] how can I tell firefox or java to use OSS instead of ALSA for sound output? [18:35] zfs is cool I dont about xfs [18:35] zfs is something else entirely :) [18:35] ok thank you guys for your help , i will use ext3 for while then [18:35] zakirs: try some othe rcd burning app perhaps. [18:35] Dr_Willis, any help regarding my PROblem [18:35] pronoy_, thats a Ubuntu Gutsy Installation Guide [18:35] xfs has never done me wrong [18:35] nice [18:35] hehe [18:35] zakirs: i tend to use k3b [18:35] Dr_Willis yes i do it the same way but when i change the desk the external monitor changes too - that's the problem [18:35] Dr_Willis, even live cd is not working :| [18:35] so i just use it by default, but like i said: trying ext4 right now [18:35] * pronoy_ remembers when he thought ubottu was the ultimate supporting man on the channel :) [18:36] is it a problem with my drive ? [18:36] I remember in BeOS their filesystem was pretty good [18:36] Anyone using AMD Athlon Neo processor? [18:36] TonyTheTiger: its more or less the same [18:36] I wonder if the BeFS is anything like XFS [18:36] pronoy_: ROTFL [18:36] Polterge|st: nope [18:36] i should try installing an ext4 ubuntu on one partition and then an xfs ubuntu on another partition and compare using bootchart :) [18:36] less is more [18:36] raven: twinview has a option to have 2 seperate X sessions on each display.. perhaps ya want that. [18:36] pronoy_, oh ok. ill try it. Saw it before and thought that was installing another ubuntu version. [18:36] when i install ubuntu on my amd 750mhz, it installs fine, but the pata hard drive shows up as sda, when i reboot to get into the new installation grub gives me an error 18. any ideas? [18:36] raven: or set the video player to be 'shown on all desktops/sticky/ [18:37] the BeFS was pretty stable unfortunately they stopped development on the OS [18:37] http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/XFS [18:37] !grup error 18 [18:37] Sorry, I don't know anything about grup error 18 [18:37] XFS's "killer app" is xfs_repair [18:37] damn :D [18:37] TonyTheTiger: its just a guide to ati [18:37] which can fix damn near anything [18:37] hehe [18:37] How can i use paltalk with linx ? -not express flash version- [18:37] Dr_Willis separat Xview does not support it i mean - i tried it already [18:37] that sounds pretty nice [18:37] man.. [18:38] oops wrong channel [18:38] !update-manager [18:38] Sorry, I don't know anything about update-manager [18:38] winter__, is XFS pretty quick ? [18:38] how to set up your second option? [18:38] dfgas: If I remeber rigth, err 18 means that something is wrong in partitions. I am not sure. [18:38] who knows how to cransfer music to an mp3 player [18:38] it is very nice when you need it, but until you really need it :) [18:38] it's acceptable [18:38] What does the command "update-manager -d" do exactly ? [18:38] i don't really notice any difference between ext3/xfs/reiser 3 [18:38] step-by-step [18:38] although actually i like reiser3 the least of those choices [18:39] i haven't done any benchmarks [18:39] I just installed jaunty, but I cant seem to find docky after I installed Gnome-do? [18:39] hi guys [18:39] !benchmark > me [18:39] Sorry, I don't know anything about benchmark [18:39] maxagaz, "man update-manager" in terminal [18:39] ok, uncool.. [18:39] it sounds like XFS is as fast as ext3 just more stable [18:39] http://www.debian-administration.org/articles/388 <-- basic benchmark [18:39] anyone familiar with sw-raid5 ? [18:39] hey [18:40] Polterge|st: that would be my take yeah [18:40] MIND YOU [18:40] TonyTheTiger: you know that's a bad chip [18:40] lol zach2200 neds help understanding what he is doing wrong [18:40] i don't think grub likes xfs [18:40] which site do u guys go to customize ur linux [18:40] is there any difference between ubuntu 9.04 beta and final [18:40] ? [18:40] anybody any body [18:40] is there a way to chmod ALL of the folders and files in the folders at once w/o going in and doing it individualy? [18:40] not 100% sure, but last time i partitioned for ubuntu (which was like 7.10 admittedly) i needed a separate /boot partition on ext3 [18:40] !final | kaushikiitd [18:40] kaushikiitd: If you installed a Alpha/Beta/RC version of Ubuntu 9.04 (Jaunty Jackalope) and have been keeping it up to date, then you are already running the latest version of Jaunty.

[18:41] Hello everyone :) [18:41] hi [18:41] nnull, i'd like to see all the commands it's running [18:41] I'm new on IRC chat :) [18:41] erUSUL:but wouldnt it be better if i reinstall the final version all over again? [18:41] Anyone know how to get docky in jaunty? It doesnt seem to be in Gnome-do in the repo [18:41] winter__, yeah I'm waiting to see how long my upgrade to 9.04 will take me [18:42] im using mibbit to IRC [18:42] i just installed from a fresh iso [18:42] Vve34: You can ask what ever you wany (about Ubuntu) in here. [18:42] mib_u2bd5eix: well google would be my answer......i have this whole mac thing ......and i have completely customized my pc to look like mac [18:42] it takes 10 mins to install [18:42] bought a big HDD recently so i figured i may as well [18:42] I'm using the alt dvd to upgrade so that I do not lose any valuable saved stuff but it is downloading most of the files anyway === mib_u2bd5eix is now known as username1 [18:42] yeah [18:42] do you know what is better? Xchat or X-chat Gnome?? [18:42] i had to replace my motherboard recently and ubuntu 8.10 refuses to boot on the new one [18:42] TonyTheTiger: i meant that never have i seen an ATI guy not having trouble with his card.........i mean nvidia is so much easier to maniuplate [18:42] help after configure my etc/network/interfaces how will i know that i have the internet connection? [18:43] (even the install disc won't boot) [18:43] Vve34, Xchat never does me wrong [18:43] maxagaz, "top" ? .. other bust out your hex editor and sniffer and find out [18:43] Vve34: i prefer Xchat (non-gnome) [18:43] *otherwise [18:43] Vve34: i guess Xchat2 is good [18:43] Labutaw: check the output of ifconfig [18:43] OK Thank you very much :) [18:43] i'm having trouble with sound. It only plays one stream max. So if I have firefox open, it works, but then RhythmBox won't work. But if RhythmBox is the only one open, it works fine. [18:43] yeah non-gnome is what I prefer [18:43] Vve34: it'll work even on kde [18:43] even though I like gnome [18:43] nnull, it runs a list of commands, i'd like to see this list [18:43] I just prefer the non-gnome version as it is cleaner looking [18:43] I'm using X-Chat Gnome. I like it pretty well so far [18:43] Vve34: I think that Xchat is good for beginner. Irssi is more cooler, but you need know what to do for use it. [18:43] pronoy_, well I havent had a problem with it yet, I havent installed it and my ubuntu is working. Only my games and firefox render slowly.

[19:19] M4d3L: best is a matter of taste [19:19] hi, i just upgraded to jaunty and now have no flash player in firefox... flashplugin-nonfree is installed, gnash and swfdec aren't. what gives? [19:19] M4d3L: there are 10000000's of themes/ and stuff out check gnome-look.org [19:20] M4d3L: google gnome themes, compiz themes and emerald themes [19:20] epalm: my bad, was a bit to fast, or you do the any distro, or you do your distro and then add the key, the part any distro uses `lsb_release -cs`to knwo which versiion you have [19:20] Dr_Willis: am not impress about theme on gnome-look.org [19:20] Bucky: what release are you running, and when did the problem start? [19:20] kazagistar_, do you know anything i could try? [19:20] you must have more than one instance of sinactic open [19:20] M4d3L: gnome-look.org [19:20] M4d3L: then ya havent looked at many of them.

Now when I try to do apt-get update or sudo apt* it pops up with that [19:21] System->Administration->Hardware Drivers and check the box to enable the restricted drivers for my NVIDIA card, but the installer dont install it, [19:22] kdask: movie encodeing.. just go get 64bit if your machine can handle it. :P [19:22] M4d3L: trust me i am a mac eyecandy freak.......or check out mac4lin at sourceforge.net [19:22] mac4lin - heh - i had to help someone Uninstall that the other day [19:22] Dr_Willis: what about 3d games? [19:23] kdask: no idea. i dont worry about games [19:23] DrWillis: what !! its the coolest thing ever :) [19:23] sigh. how can i add a GPG key to a PPA ? im trying this https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ReinhardTartler/X/RevertingIntelDriverTo2.4 ,but the GPG guide on launchpad link is too ambigious, or too complex [19:23] pronoy_: i hate the os-x look. [19:23] Bucky: well, we can fix the immediate problem, but there's no telling how much secondary damage there might be. If I were you, I'd give up on the upgrade and do a from-scratch install of 9.04. You have backups of anything indispensible, right? [19:23] losher: v.v What do you think. [19:24] Dr_Willis: oh i totally love it ......you know with the magic lamp and all [19:24] Bucky: v.v ? [19:24] Would someone help me with an installation problem please?

[19:24] Dr_Willis: hehe. ... :D [19:24] can anyone help me with the nvidia driver geforce fx 5200 [19:24] LinuxIdiot: if the thing can run 64bit - might as well. [19:24] losher: nvm No I didn't back anything up but I'm just going to burn my home fodler to a dvd and do a fresh install [19:24] LinuxIdiot: if you have a 64bit processor, yeah [19:24] kdask: someone say games ? [19:24] is there a way that i can see my ssh details. who is logged in to my ssh server or freenx and what is he doing? [19:25] How would I check that? [19:25] 64bit has matured very much in the last year... [19:25] LinuxIdiot: What processor do you have? [19:25] losher: It sucks though I finnaly got it tweaked with everything I did. [19:25] LinuxIdiot: you want 32bit release 8.04 [19:25] theuser1: w [19:25] Anyone else noticed a slowdown with 9.04? [19:25] AMD Turion dual core === miguel is now known as Guest65863 [19:25] w3wsrmn: w what [19:25] theuser1: the 'who' command tells who is logged on.. byt you cant 'watch' their ssh session woth out other work.

[19:25] LordMetroid: everyone, except those who switched to ext4 [19:25] I am not happy w Jaunty :| [19:25] theuser1: if you wanted to 'share' a ssh terminal session with a user. you could check out screen [19:25] Dr_Willis: i'm having a problem installing 32bit flash player in 64 bit ubuntu 9.04, is there any way you could help me? pronoy_ yes i did [19:25] I can barely type in gedit it goes like 20fps [19:26] Bucky: that's how I'd do it... [19:26] kdask: i just installed ubuntu-restricted-extras and it worked.. (i think) [19:26] kdask: when you talk about 3d games you mean hardcore games or chess like :) ? [19:26] losher, what comes as default? [19:26] LinuxIdiot: then it is 64-bit [19:27] I am trying to copy some files (1.5Gb) to kingston pendrive and is very slow, someone knows if exist some problem with new ubuntu version for this ? [19:27] the jockey driver installer dont install nvidia driver [19:27] what does ubuntu-r-e install? does it install the alpha version of flash player 64 bit or does it install the 32 bit version? pronoy_ hardcore [19:27] LinuxIdiot: you might want to try 32 bit anyways simply because some applications have slight issues in 64bit still [19:27] does anyone know how to fix this in kdenlive http://imagebin.ca/img/mD3qnGFI.png [19:28] pronoy_: checked out crysis warhead ? [19:28] guys .. whats a good swf player besides firefox ? [19:28] kdask: no idea.. but flash is working here fine [19:28] macman__: Firefox is not a swf player. [19:28] Can one switch to ext4 after installation without destroying all data? [19:28] macman__: VLC [19:28] LordMetroid: if you're typical, ext3, very mature, dependable, no known important bugs. Unless you need something specific from 9.04, 8.04 is a better, more stable release [19:28] kdask: Ubuntu-restricted-extras - is like the first thing i install on a new isntall [19:28] kdask: you should remove any flash packages you installed, visit a website in your browser that uses flash (youtube) and then download it that way. [19:28] I used ubuntu image creator trying to put 9.04 on my usb drive. It completed restarted machine but it wouldn't boot up from the usb drive. I get back into ubuntu, and the drive no longer automounts... I install gparted and try to format it but it comes up as 3.76GiB unallocated. So I tried to plug into windows and format in there, but windows says it can't and to check and see if it is in read only mode. I then did a dmesg on it and got [19:28] for some reason, when ive tried 8.04 server or 9.04 server in vbox (no problems in intrepid as host) I do apt-get update and it works, then i install something , anything and apt-get install whatever and as soon as it starts it locks the vm up? how odd. [19:29] sorry, how i can enter on ubuntu.it? [19:29] Yeah, I don't really want ext4, heard about the recurring data losses.

When I'm installing updates, it's telling me I have to manually run 'dpkg --configure -a'. Synpatic Package Manager says the same thing. I've looked through the FAQs, but I don't get what I need to do. The error message I get is 'E: _cache->open() failed, please report.'

I am in a hotel with free wlan. in my room I can connect but not in the lobby. same network name but different channel. good signals both places. I use Ubuntu 8.04 [19:32] Jeruvy: installing via browser always fails for some reason [19:32] there is no wep or wpa [19:33] Hey all, I have a problem with Jaunty. Multimedia keys aren't working, and all the bug reports on launchpad don't help in any way [19:33] hi. I've heard that 9.04 has a problem with the ati HD 3300 onboard chipsets for video. Can anyone substantiate this? [19:33] The notification shows that the volume changes, but it stays the same volume [19:33] Would using ext4 on a netbook be overkill? [19:33] GreedOther: proberly [19:33] do you know any tool for batch processing audio - to add fade in and fade out? [19:33] GreedOther: Meh, doesn't really matter. [19:33] Hello, does anybody know of a site that explains how to get sound to "just work" with firefox on 9.04? [19:33] Hi all. I think I did myself in: I'm running 9.04, I downloaded the newest ATI proprietary drivers becasue I thought I needed to update to fix a graphics issue I've been having, but I've had the worst possible outcome. Can't start X, can't run aticonfig - says that no compatiable card was detected, and when I try to startup x it just is a black screen with random colored dots on it near the top. [19:34] !sound | btakita [19:34] btakita: If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer).

When it's saying "grub loading..." at the beginning, press a key to interrupt it, then select the safe graphics mode. [19:35] kdask: hmm then I am not sure, never had a problem with that method. [19:35] ryanprior: Did that activate the ubottu bot? [19:35] GreedOther, journaled filesystem writes more data each write than something like ext2, so if you have a SSD drive, its generally best in the long tun to choose ext2.

I downloaded the new ATI proprietary drivers and installed them, but I cannot start X; it doesn't crash, just hangs at a black screen. dpkg-reconfigure does nothing to help. When I attempt to run aticonfig, I get "no supported adapters detcted" even though my card, a radeon x1600, IS supported AND appears in lspci | grep VGA [19:52] Torhal: Correct, but you can still effectively be away without a nick change. [19:52] Any one willing to help me get sound working properly with my dell XPS m1530? [19:52] jtrent90: oh, nevermind you issue is with the login... Have you tried to use recovery mode from bootup? [19:52] meoblast001: depends on how you plan to play it. There are formats designed to store video on CDs so that many players (but not all) will play them. You would have to transcode your DVD video (mpeg2) into VCD video (mpeg1) === florin is now known as Guest75924 [19:52] I have same card have issues also [19:52] Indeed, but one message in 13 hours is hardly disruptive.

[19:53] This the right server for Kubuntu issues? [19:53] i havent.. which problem could that remedy? i can login to the GUI but the terminal keeps saying login incorrect [19:53] Let me look.... but what can I do to get back to the old drivers? [19:53] Torhal: If everyone here did that, it'd be 140 messages extra per hour. [19:53] how can I revert so I can continue using my system with X? [19:53] ExAstris: I don't hink the x1600 is supported by AMD in the closed driver anymore, what does 'lspc |grep VGA' say? [19:53] Still looking for help with the sound. [19:53] how do I install the flash driver ? flashplugin-nonfree is already installed how come ? [19:53] Meh. I don't need to lurk here, anyway.

I personally don't use 64bit, but if you're doing anything intense you should [19:57] whee [19:57] If you already have a 32bit install, don't reinstall just for 64bit [19:57] nothing like ridiculous dependencies [19:57] meoblast001: haven't tried it. I usually render using cli commands and one of transcode, ffmpeg or mencoder. What *exactly* are you trying to do? [19:57] xangua: I went there already, and that is 1.0, not 2.0.

Why can it not remember I want an album shown under various artists and More importantly WHY does the guess from file name not work AT ALL [20:48] I just don't understand this. There is definitely a disk in this drive, regardless of whether or not there is actually something on it, yet every DVD program I have is reporting that the drive is empty! [20:49] Gnea: I made a clean 9.04 install and overwrote the home directory I got with it with my 8.10 home dir (which I know realize was very stupid).

[20:49] Gnea: I have no idea how... [20:49] Gnea: But I'll look at that file. remind me, what's the rename command? [20:49] gesto_: there's only one 9.04 [20:49] ExAstris: do you have another computer that you can ssh to it from? [20:49] hi, I have slight problem with jaunty.. it fails to install on one of my computers - the installer freezes at about 25% of copying files. I checked cd for defects and it said it was alright. what could that be? [20:49] ExAstris: mv [20:50] Ok, question, I am on 8.04 LTS, those that are in the newest version, do you think I should switch or stay with LTS? [20:50] compute32, i would replace my old card with a newer one. you dont need a high end one but a newer one :-) if i were you ^^ but thats up to you :) [20:50] my 8800gt works very fine. so theres a problem with your card itself [20:50] How can I set a default window manager? [20:50] Yes ! Thank you .I meant beta or latest stable . [20:50] yes, there's no uninstall option. Thanks, Gnea. Should I try to restore that x.org conf? [20:50] RedWar: no point upgrading unless there is something you specifically need in 9.04 that 8.04 doesn't have [20:50] ah [20:50] How can I restore /etc/modprobe.d/aliases [20:51] ExAstris: Hold on. I can help you.

[20:51] minimec: I'm all ears. [20:51] Is 9.04 still dealing with those Intell graphics issues? [20:51] RedWar: If you've intel graphics card, Stay with LTS! [20:51] PlasmaSheep: not sure why metacity is bombing out, but maybe your ~/.xsession-errors file can give a clue [20:51] Luig1: yes [20:51] spanther-laptop: the graphics card does work. I mean I use this same computer with windows and I get no problems. [20:51] anyone have ideas on what i should do with the busybox prompt? [20:51] Luig1 its alot better [20:51] I was so happy too, the 9.04 update went so well. Then WINE started being obnoxious and I screwed up. [20:51] good day to [20:52] all of you [20:52] hey peeps. my firefox won't start. traced it to the package xulrunner-1.9, but pakage managers are unable to remove/reinstall xulrunner-1.9* [20:52] just install the software modem driver for some reason that made it better [20:52] St0n3-C0l, so no composition in 9.04 means stick with LTS? [20:52] Gnea: it works when I do metacity --replace, so metacity isn't broken, it's just not starting up. [20:52] could someone help me out with a couple of questions? [20:52] ExAstris: can you go on a console with f1? If not boot your machine in recovery mode. [20:52] ExAstris : try the uinstall first , but it migh be good to have a solid xorg .conf backup once its all done [20:52] minimec, I'm already in recovery. [20:52] tacosarecool: do you mean they've updated it, or that you are dealing with it fine? [20:52] PlasmaSheep: the method that it's using to start it is broken.

[20:55] i can mount the harddrive [20:55] run the xrandr works perfect [20:55] Wow - would it really kill them to host the MD5 sums on a server that's actually responsive? [20:55] but when i try to copy a 1.7H [20:55] compute32, i bet there is a way but i won't know it then ^^ [20:55] Tabascork run the xrandr works perfect [20:56] 1.7GB file [20:56] gumpwea: They exist to annoy you, whoever they are :D [20:56] How do I fix my gnome panel? After I installed kde it broke somewhat, I decided I like gnome better. [20:56] it copies for a while and it freezes [20:56] Tabascork works for tvout [20:56] minimec : it would appear to work, xorg.conf, but modules still would load up at boot time [20:56] later on i got a input output error [20:56] tacosarecool: detail would be nice. [20:56] !detail [20:56] Sorry, I don't know anything about detail [20:56] heh [20:56] KYWL: The version I ran, in it compiz did run but i switched it off. [20:56] it's booting, minimec. [20:56] 8.04 [20:56] Hello guys! im having problems with ubuntu after upgrading to 9.04. the system crashes when im trying to boot. [20:56] sometimes copies 128mb sometimes it copies 140mb [20:56] I'll know in a sec how this works :S [20:56] anyone have a freaking clue why or how I have an empty album named unknown? [20:56] the drive is fine === Mark_Milliman is now known as Mark_M|Away [20:57] Eveready: What? That works out of the box... ;) [20:57] echo7: I assume you got it to work then? [20:57] gumpwea, ExAstris: they're doing it on purpose. Weeds out the faint of heart and the quick-thrill seekers... [20:57] If I get what I need in Ubuntu 8.04 [20:57] I might not turn back. [20:57] Plasma I installed kde the gnome panel broke somewhat after I installed kde. The part that broke you know the top right where your name is broke. Because I decided I liked gnome better afterwards. [20:57] Tabascork [20:57] I want the latest ffmpeg and other stuff [20:57] Tabascork yes [20:57] yea, no luck. Can't start X. Just a bunch of random colors near the top of the screen. Bars of red, then green/purple, then green [20:57] St0n3-C0l, I see [20:57] just like before [20:58] somebody that can help me? [20:58] ExAstris: good luck... [20:58] Tabascork i need to fix xorg.conf which i have no clue how to open [20:58] please can someone help me out, i only have a few questions [20:58] minimec: bit late, see above. [20:58] im using mint, can i ask here or is there a better place to go [20:58] i have a problem with ntfs on a RAID0 drive in a poweredge server [20:58] KYWL: Just to tell you, I don't have even 9xx series chipset. I have 845. So don't know about 9xx performances on 8.04. ayways would be better [20:58] back into recovery mode for the 400 billionth time. [20:58] PlasmaSheep: hrm, not sure if that's the right one or not... when are you given a chance to type metacity --replace? [20:58] hi all [20:58] hello. [20:59] taruz my guess is that NTFS ate it self enough that you cannot read it. [20:59] Plasma I installed kde the gnome panel broke somewhat after I installed kde. The part that broke you know the top right where your name is broke. Because I decided I liked gnome better afterwards. [20:59] ttturbo: Hmm, better ask in LinuxMint on irc.spotchat.org [20:59] Gnea: The GUI works fine, I can open a terminal without a problem. [20:59] minimec : lmao [20:59] Hello , i downloaded the new version of Ubuntu (9.04 64 bit) from the installer i choosed to create new partition with EXT4 , when the installation process getting to 41% i getting error msg : errno 5 Input/output , i tryed to install the Ubuntu on other computer and it the same problem , any ides ? [20:59] ExAstris: I have done that myself and I told a lot of people here on the channel to do so. It always worked. [20:59] i can see all my files, all i need is a sql database [20:59] 1.7gb in size [20:59] mkfs kills NTFS [20:59] well, you know how you can switch between desktops by using the mouse wheel, i was messing around in compiz settings and I cant get it to work again [20:59] im trying to copy it to a SD card [20:59] echo7: Wouldn't it be easier to do it dynamically in the terminal? [20:59] i have just loaded ubuntu9.04 and i need help [21:00] no idea with compiz friend [21:00] i don't use it [21:00] !ask | kelli [21:00] kelli: 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. :-) [21:00] minimec: Nope. Just tried loading backup xorg.conf, STILL nothing. What the hell is going on? [21:00] PlasmaSheep: okay, then what you need to do is this: logout, login again, open the terminal, and before you type metacity --replace, type this: cp .xsession_errors temp_xsession_errors [21:00] kelli : come to #linuxforchicks [21:00] gnea: sure. [21:00] peeps: i'm lurvin my fresh install of Jackalope - its Jaunty! Alrite, but its the same ole drum role at boot up. It would be nice to see this developed and refined with wach release. But we have the same drum roll since 6 releases or more ago.... Question: anyone know where and how i can get a different sounding boot up sound? please? [21:00] PlasmaSheep: thanks [21:00] Tabascork whats the command to do that? [21:00] what is compiz and what could you use instead [21:00] I installed kde the gnome panel broke somewhat after I installed kde. The part that broke you know the top right where your name is broke. Because I decided I liked gnome better afterwards. [21:00] !compiz [21:00] Compiz (compositing window manager), for a howto see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompositeManager and more help #compiz-fusion [21:00] Hmm Hi! I need some help configuring my microphone. It works fine, but as soon as I mute the Microphone in the Playback! Section. It does not record anymore. The problem is just that I can't disable microphone output to the speakers. So I always hear myself. Any hint? [21:00] Tabascork I'm a starter on computers [21:00] Tabascork and linux [21:00] ExAstris: what graphic card are you using? [21:01] kenken, it is an ATI radeon x1600 [21:01] and until today, it was my friend. [21:01] Taruz, well normally if WIndows blows up and kills the drive. normally I found the repair it in *nix, then reboot windows to force the chkdsk [21:01] huh .. I have a radeon [21:01] I have found a lot of 9.04 help at http://ubuntuforums.org/index.php since I updated. [21:01] well i tried to use the recovery console, but when it starts [21:01] since if it is in a inconsistant state, you will see the errors you are seeing [21:01] im using ati radeon 9600 pro and i think i have a similar problem.. [21:01] it gets stuck trying to read the drive [21:01] Sigh. I seriously screwed up, but I have no idea what to do. [21:02] I installed kde the gnome panel broke somewhat after I installed kde. The part that broke you know the top right where your name is broke. Because I decided I liked gnome better afterwards. [21:02] At this point I think I'm just gonna grab the jaunty ISO, reinstall... [21:02] echo7: there are 3 commands on that web page you gave me that are numbered. just enter one of them in the terminal and see what that does for you. [21:02] but is there a way for me to do that without losing all my data again? [21:02] I have a 9200 pro, and Jockey hooked me up with the 2400HD driver [21:02] ExAstris: that's what I did when ubuntu didn't start. [21:02] PlasmaSheep: The only gaurenteed fix. [21:02] ExAstris: do you have an external hdd? [21:02] Taruz, did you try ntfsfix? [21:02] PlasmaSheep: I have 3! [21:02] xD [21:02] does anyone know what they are using for system info in this picture [21:02] http://narf41.deviantart.com/art/Ljuda-108827131 [21:03] ExAstris: Are you sure you removed all the fglrx packages by typing apt-get remove fglrx* ? [21:03] Hi, can any1 help me please? [21:03] still having no luck with kernel compilation. anyone know what the errors i pasted mean [21:03] minimec: I'm pretty sure. I did it twice, on the 2nd try it found nothing to remove... but I installed from a .run, so... [21:03] i havent tried that, ill google for it, do you think my ntfs is screwed up, why would ubuntu just copy around 128-140 mb of data [21:03] !help [21:03] Hi! I'm #ubuntu's favorite infobot, you can search my brain yourself at http://ubottu.com/factoids.cgi - Usage info: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuBots [21:03] echo7: of course, that doesn't work on my machine because I don't have s-video... :/ [21:03] i need some1 to try my Java applet, it seems to work for me on windows [21:03] but crashes on ubuntu [21:03] ExAstris: Simple then. Copy whatever you want to keep onto the external hdd, reinstall, and then copy it back (just be careful wit the hidden folders, you can f up the window manager) [21:03] Taruz, yes I am pretty sure the NTFS is screwed up. [21:03] Java is better in Linux hehe [21:04] really? [21:04] Anyone? [21:04] is that why it crashes -.- [21:04] ? [21:04] well... Sun just got bought sooo [21:04] PlasmaSheep: Well, yes, but what about my applications? I don't want to have to reinstall everything. [21:04] Tabascork do u know a way to auto run terminal with script [21:04] jaunty is very quick to install, if you just think you dont like whichever desktop environment, then just reinstall with whichever you like .. [21:04] ExAstris: Oh I see!! Go to /usr/share/fglrx or something like that... There is an uninstall script.. [21:04] minimec: Righto. [21:04] Eveready, can you see if it crashes for you too? maybe i didn't install JRE as needed on ubuntu [21:04] Tabascork can i pm u [21:04] if the company im doing this for looses that database they are sooo screwed [21:04] after all i'm new here [21:04] letme try ntfsfix [21:04] is chkconfig used in Ubuntu? [21:04] What is the name of that Program Manager looking window in 9.04 Remix? [21:04] anyone know what system monitor is being used in this picture: http://narf41.deviantart.com/art/Ljuda-108827131 [21:04] ill be back in a minute, thank you [21:04] Taruz, i've seen ntfs get messed up enough that windows won't boot, an ntfsfix, and then a reboot into windows to chckdesk can fix the problem, then you can copy it off [21:04] Gnea: logging out/in. [21:04] since when i run it with the applet viewer with NetBeans - it works... [21:04] I installed kde the gnome panel broke somewhat after I installed kde. The part that broke you know the top right where your name is broke. Because I decided I liked gnome better afterwards. [21:04] very odd. [21:05] too late dpkg purget the script [21:05] Taruz, if they don't have backups,then they are already screwed :) [21:05] minimec... that directory doesn't exist. [21:05] twanny796: no, but you can download/compile/install it yourself. Seems to work... [21:05] i guess they are :p [21:05] mythos, is there any 3D? [21:05] anyone know of a mouse macro creator for linux other then Xmacro and xnee? [21:05] nope [21:05] reinstall it! lol [21:05] Graphics2D [21:05] god no... [21:05] echo7: as far as auto-running... I have no idea. You'll have to ask someone else about that. [21:05] i loaded ubuntu9.04 and a box with "Tracker Applet" came up and wont go away? [21:05] yay, 20 more minutes [21:06] kubuntu jaunty doesn't show any hardware or common control panel style options.. any idea why? was this a design decision? [21:06] Anyone that got the PDF Ebook "Getting started with ubuntu" ?:) [21:06] www.mmf2.com/java/linux.htm [21:06] ExAstris: /usr/share/ati/fglrx-uninstall.sh [21:06] kelli: it won't? would you prefer it did? [21:06] yes, got that. [21:06] :D [21:06] what is the defult ati driver when updating to 9.04? does it come a new driver when updating or is it the old one [21:06] python_user: start panel > applications > system [21:06] working. [21:06] ExAtris? === plustwo is now known as deegee [21:06] working? [21:06] I have Jaunty installed here and a lot of programs just die with Segmentation fault, Firefox, Galeon, the update manager, synaptic..... Something seems very unstable. Is it a known problem, if so what do I do about it? === Mark_M|Away is now known as Mark_Milliman [21:06] you see the spider walking? [21:07] ExAstris: You do the dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg afterwards... :) [21:07] mythos: Sorry, what? I was telling minimec, it's uninstalling [21:07] Skapare: yeah, theres nothing there like "mouse and keyboard settings" [21:07] Hello all. [21:07] minimec: I guessed XD [21:07] oh sorry [21:07] Gbea : yes [21:07] kelli: did you check the list from: right-click on the top bar, 'remove applet' and select the tracker there? [21:07] i just need some1 to see if my java applet works for him, since it doesn't work for me [21:07] Gnea: http://paste.ubuntu.com/158116/ Some of it seems to be about conky. [21:07] www.mmf2.com/java/linux.htm [21:07] that [21:07] python_user: I found hardware drivers there ... guess you gotta look around ... different concepts than gnome [21:07] Plasma? [21:07] kenken:The default driver is open source. As far as I know, the restricted drivers are not compatible with 9.04 [21:07] Skapare: I'm not looking for drivers [21:07] I wanna config the mouse [21:07] I installed kde the gnome panel broke somewhat after I installed kde. The part that broke you know the top right where your name is broke. Because I decided I liked gnome better afterwards. [21:07] and a few other things [21:07] OMB YES! [21:08] X STARTED! [21:08] !I installed kde the gnome panel broke somewhat after I installed kde. The part that broke you know the top right where your name is broke. Because I decided I liked gnome better afterwards. [21:08] ExAstris: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. [21:08] Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) === CoskunD is now known as coskund [21:08] Tabascork: restricted drivers are always compatible =/ [21:08] they should be in the "systems settings" like the screenshots show, but I have nothing.. or very little [21:08] minimec: I got in. IT looks weird as hell, but I'm in. [21:08] minimec: must be logged in as root [21:08] mythos, a bug walking on the screen? [21:08] is there a way to find out where an ip is located [21:08] python_user: there were some other things I saw labeled preferences and administration (didn't find drivers there so I moved on) [21:08] yeah [21:08] Error: I am only an engineer, please don't think I'm intelligent :) [21:08] it works for you? [21:08] NTFS volumes are mounted correctly in /mnt/ but doesn't appear in My Computer. Can I fix it? 9.04 [21:08] python_user: maybe mouse stuff is in those [21:08] I'm gonna reboot normally and see if it works [21:08] yes [21:08] so why doesn't it work for me? [21:08] Skapare: I've looked for over 2 hours now, I seriously cant find anything [21:08] what graphics card are you using? [21:08] i'm running Ubuntu 9.04 [21:08] PlasmaSheep: they don't work for me. [21:08] PlasmaSheep: are you sure you cleaned your /home out properly when you reinstalled? x-session-manager[7712]: WARNING: Could not launch application 'nvidia-power.sh.desktop': Unable to start application: Failed to execute child process "/home/alyosha/bin/nvidia-power.sh" (No such file or directory) [21:09] ExAstris: Good idea... [21:09] !fstab [21:09] and installed JDK + JRE [21:09] The /etc/fstab file indicates how drive partitions are to be used or otherwise integrated into the file system. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Fstab and http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/fstab.html and !Partitions [21:09] python_user: *shrug* ... maybe #kde knows [21:09] minimec: some things, I can do xD [21:09] + using FF [21:09] this is really bad from an end users perspective, when I find them I'm gonna submit a patch to kde to get this fixed [21:09] http://pt.kuki.me/iso/Kuki 3.0 Pre Release/test/ [21:09] I installed kde the gnome panel broke somewhat after I installed kde. The part that broke you know the top right where your name is broke. Because I decided I liked gnome better afterwards. [21:09] Tabascork: what can be the problem, when im trying to boot the system crashes and gives me just strange colours [21:09] mythos, what graphics card do you have? [21:09] Skapare: lol, #kde didnt know [21:09] Gnea: curious, I don't even have an nvidia card. I guess I didn't clean it well enough. [21:09] opps wrong channel [21:10] minimec: booting now. [21:10] sgodsell, Geforce 8500GT [21:10] This looks like some ubuntu design decision to me [21:10] no one has any clue [21:10] inkscape is buggy [21:10] python_user: well, unfortunately, I don't (yet) since I didn't need to configure mouse ... and I'm going back to gnome because konqueror is borked [21:10] I will say that Jaunty boots extremely fast compared to 8.10 [21:10] ExAstris: definitely. [21:10] mmm delicious x [21:10] Skapare: also trying to find where to change to double click for icons [21:10] hey dooner, do you think that if delete all the partitions in the server, then reinstall and try to recover the information using some software like filescanvenger or something like that [21:10] I installed kde the gnome panel broke somewhat after I installed kde. The part that broke you know the top right where your name is broke. Because I decided I liked gnome better afterwards. [21:11] do you think i could recover some files? [21:11] I need to get Jaunty on the Atom computer [21:11] Gnea: So what do I do now? [21:11] kenken: I'm not entirely sure. ATI has to fix the problem, since it's their piece of crap. [21:11] mythos, I know on the 945 intel. I have problems with java 3D. It just doesn't work. Sun will have to do an update for xorg 1.6 [21:11] It's so good to have it back. Thank you, minimec, gnea, PlasmaSheep for your help! [21:11] just found out it is a dually [21:11] Eveready: netbook remix [21:11] yee ha [21:11] python_user: no idea, sorry [21:11] ExAstris: np [21:11] i've got everything installed, the nvidia graphics driver also [21:11] thanks [21:11] and my applet is 2d [21:11] mm hmm [21:11] ExAstris: I don't think I particularly helped, but no problem nonetheless :p [21:11] minimec: words cannot describe how relieved I am. [21:11] tc@Zputnik:~$ sudo apt-get upgrade; Reading package lists... Done; Segmentation faulty tree... 50% <-- Is this bad? :) [21:11] PlasmaSheep: well, you tried. [21:11] and it WORKS when i run it with applet viewer [21:11] Heh. [21:12] just doesn't work when i try it with FF or Konqueror [21:12] it had option to have Ubuntu factory installed... now I ned a 1gb stick and Ill be ready [21:12] PlasmaSheep: well, how did you clean it in the first place? you made mention about backing up your /home to an external drive... but did you just copy everything back over or do you even have a separate /home partition? [21:12] err format my 4gig sd card [21:12] seems lik everything that can work does in ubuntu [21:12] mythos, how did you install the plugin to ff [21:12] Gnea: I just copied everything. [21:12] ummm 1 line in the terminal [21:12] I bet my original issue is still there... but that's okay. better then no GUI at all [21:12] ExAstris: Yeah... Sometimes I have this feeling too... [21:12] PlasmaSheep: okay. try this then: make a new user. logout, login with the new user. does metacity croak with the new user? [21:12] i'll look for it, sec [21:12] minimec: :D [21:12] I installed kde the gnome panel broke somewhat after I installed kde. The part that broke you know the top right where your name is broke. Because I decided I liked gnome better afterwards. [21:13] yep, my original WINE problem presists. gotta downgrade :( [21:13] Anyone else finding the update servers being really slow? Guessing it is because of the recent release [21:13] what version of kde is in the kubuntu-desktop for jaunty [21:13] ;) [21:13] sgodsell, like this: [21:13] ~$ ln -s /libjavaplugin_oji.so ./libjavaplugin_oji.so [21:13] 4.2.2 [21:14] Yeah I couldn't download new packages last night. I finally got a few to work this morning. [21:14] no luck [21:14] mythos, does ff show it [21:14] how to convert swf to mov or m4a [21:14] mythos, about:plugins [21:14] adelie42: it's also the weekend... most people get on during the weekend, so yes, both of those combined will slow things down.. not much you can do about it other than to try again and hope the round-robin dns picks a faster server for you [21:14] mac http://mediaconverter.org [21:14] it shows me www.mmf2.com/java/index3.htm with no problem... [21:14] but crashes my whole screen, and makes me reboot when i load the linux.htm [21:15] which worked for you + works great for me in windows [21:15] switching to apt-p2p helped some, but I don't think enough people really use it. I look forward to it being standard once it works out a few more bugs [21:15] anyone nknow how to use xmacro? [21:16] so, is vmware workstation free or not? Some people say yes, but the web site quotes prices...? [21:16] yowshi : what you wanna do [21:16] hey guys i have an issue [21:16] has the issue been fixed with DVDstyler having no sound when you make an iso [21:16] anyone using kubuntu? [21:16] qsd [21:16] !man [21:16] The "man" command brings up the Linux manual pages for the command you're interested in. Try "man intro" at the command line, or see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UsingTheTerminal [21:16] i cannot have sound from my speakers i use jaunty [21:16] Hello all. [21:16] !man man [21:16] Sorry, I don't know anything about man man [21:16] i can only use my headphones [21:16] Gnea: negative. [21:16] Why has jaunty hidden the hardware and other config option in the control center? [21:16] Eveready: loop some mouse actions. gnee constantly crashes and i cant figure out how to get xmacro to work [21:16] whats goin' on ? [21:16] slim|: probably a pulseaudio problem [21:16] I installed kde the gnome panel broke somewhat after I installed kde. The part that broke you know the top right where your name is broke. Because I decided I liked gnome better afterwards. [21:16] sgodsell, do you have any idea why is that happening? [21:16] control center? [21:17] sgodsell, since other java applets work for me [21:17] kmix is the sound mixer [21:17] adelie42: it's kde [21:17] H [21:17] apt-get upgrade segfaults here, what to do? [21:17] Gnea: metacity works fine for wak the unprivileged user. [21:17] ah* [21:17] tacosarecool: thats the fast-user-switching (i think applet) readd it to the panelif it vanished [21:17] segfault on apt-get upgrade?? [21:17] gnee ... [21:18] adelie42: Yeah :( [21:18] that sounds like a good sign to do a clean install [21:18] Eveready does it work for you too? [21:18] can you please check? [21:18] Is gnee a daemon , background process for xmacro ? [21:18] tc: what release, did it ever work, did you *do* something that broke it? [21:19] PlasmaSheep: okay, then something is screwy with your dot-files. [21:19] tc-: that is really weird. can you do other apt-get commands that do not segfault? also, are you sure it is apt-get that is faulting and not a package script it is running? what does it do before faulting? [21:19] yowshi : have you researched their website homepage or any google help you with gnee ? [21:19] Gnea: Affirmative. [21:19] The icons for the Qt development utilities (Linguist, Designer, and Assistant) aren't the new ones. Where are the icons supposed to be installed in Ubuntu? [21:19] any kde users here?

[21:47] Eveready: how do i know where a certain spot on the screen is in XY coordinates? i am getting close with trial and error to the spots i want but not close enough [21:47] Anyone here able to help me get my 4th and 5th mouse buttons working in X? i've attempted with xorg.conf method adding the buttons to the Mouse Device [21:47] thnak [21:47] hbekel: is what official ubuntu policy? [21:47] hey, does the minimal cd installation also have option to install openssh/lamp and other services like the server install has ? [21:47] okay so I have two hard drives. I install ubuntu 9.04 clean on the slave and then booted up into the master drive that has ubuntu 9.04 upgraded from 8.10. so then I wiped clean the other drive with gparted. and now when I boot up it gives Grub error 22 [21:47] hello! I cant fast forward in rythmbox [21:47] yoasif, ok, I understand that, there are plenty of bug reports on this issue. [21:47] yoasif: to touch ~/ during upgrades/installs of packages [21:48] fostot: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ManyButtonsMouseHowto [21:48] Ventero yes there was another tutorial i followed, but i see the same things i did... i remember i had some problem with the .wine ownership but i resolved and executed evrything [21:48] How can I change my color profile in Ubuntu? Jaunty changed mine and it's too bright. [21:48] Yoasif, thanks [21:48] hbekel: well, is he sure that that is what happened? or did the first startup of amarok2 remove it? [21:48] assuming your down to busybox from a failed boot, is there anything you can do to adjust something in the init image? [21:48] ive been having some trouble with brasero since 9.04. It says it can't burn a .iso file because it doesnt have permissions to access the drive. Ive changed the permissions and it still wont work. Anyone have any ideas? [21:49] hbekel: is it reproducible? [21:49] im programming in bash, how can i compare if 2 files are equal ? (compare byte per byte) [21:49] RkyRaccoon: does it work if you run the program as root? [21:49] b4sher, diff === Qtpaxa2 is now known as Qtpaxa [21:49] b4sher, cmp [21:49] But if we are willing to spread the good news of *nix and *buntu eventually (as it has already been noticed) new users are not so "savy" and cautious. This type of bug could really turn away those folks away [21:49] criten, I havent tried that. how do i? [21:50] b4sher, diff [21:50] hi [21:50] yowshi: it's far from ideal, but if you run xev, move the created window, and click on it, you'll get a root coordinate pair in the terminal [21:50] RkyRaccoon: go into a terminal and type sudo then the name of the burning priogram [21:50] okay so I have two hard drives. I install ubuntu 9.04 clean on the slave and then booted up into the master drive that has ubuntu 9.04 upgraded from 8.10. so then I wiped clean the other drive with gparted. and now when I boot up it gives Grub error 22 [21:50] yoasif, yes, the old collections db had been removed [21:50] how do i make ubuntu log out after a certain amount of inactivity and go to the login screen for another user like it does on windows [21:50] ubottu: I am thinking to use the simple backup program from add/remove programs. [21:50] Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) [21:50] When I do the back up to my external hd [21:50] How would I recover the data back? Do I have to use the live cd? [21:50] crdlb: what? i dont want a window i want a a button thats in a window [21:50] b4sher, basically if `diff 1 2` returns nothing the files are the same [21:51] hello ! .. i need software to switch my Svideo out .. i know it exists ( but think wiky is down and i cant find it ) [21:51] diff will show you the differences,if you want to compare them byte by byte (even binary files). cmp is what you want [21:51] yoasif: that's the question. if it was deleted during first run, then it's amaroks fault, if during package ugrade, then ubuntu is to blame [21:51] b4sher, where 1 and 2 are names of files [21:51] exodus_ms: you're sure about this? [21:51] compute32: i'd recommend you read up on rsync [21:51] crdlb: and the position of it so i can write an xmacro [21:51] also, exodus_ms i dont see the bug: https://bugs.launchpad.net/amarok/+bugs [21:51] its for the radeon m6 ly [21:51] rafael_: You said when you start Dreamweaver you get a message before it closes.

[21:51] yowshi: if you're using a compositing manager, you could make the xev window semitransparent and click through it [21:51] RkyRaccoon: hmm.. thats odd.. try a different program. sorry i got to go.. im on lunch and time is up :P [21:51] yowshi: then get the root coordinates from the terminal output [21:52] hey, does the minimal cd installation also have option to install openssh/lamp and other services like the server install has ?

[22:20] doleyb and SawBoss: dont know if you're still interested, but following http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=4928900 solved the problem for me [22:21] thanks dr_willis [22:21] Gnea, yes, [22:21] anyone else got Java crashes on some sites (not all)? [22:21] Hey, anyone know how I can disable automatic screen dimming on 9.04? [22:21] Java crashes, Ubuntu 9.04 upgrade [22:21] drabosta: when you flip the switch 'off', do any of the modules get auto-unloaded? [22:21] Dr_Willis: i wouldn't ask, but vim highlights for fstab doesn't recognize ext4, obviously that didn't make it to 9.04 [22:21] xMopx: see the screensaver panel in preferences [22:22] Gnea, no [22:22] stalker314314: never noticed vim having fstab highlighting. :) but then again.. i rarely have to edit fstab more then every 5 mo [22:22] can i adjust the time i have to wait for taskbar to come out?(auto hide: on) [22:22] drabosta: and when you turn it back 'on', does the wireless work just fine or do you have to reload the modules? [22:22] Gnea, have to reload the modules [22:22] yoasif: Thanks [22:23] Gnea: can i adjust the time i have to wait for taskbar to come out?(auto hide: on) [22:23] Okay, installing a lightweight DE and going to try out midori, epiphany, and opera all at once ;) Wish me luck.

[22:24] If you install gnome-desktop, yeah [22:24] drabosta: okay. and if you turn the computer all the way off and start it (cold-boot) does the wireless work just fine from the first time the modules get loaded? [22:24] egc: since its a server.. no. ; [22:24] in U9.04 the nautilus - and other windows opens maximized - and the buttons on top of the window are missing, how can I get them back?

Also see !patience [22:24] Dr_Willis: hehe [22:24] xMopx: thx [22:24] asathoor: you dident use the netbook remix did you? [22:24] Has anyone ever had a problem develop where they can no longer install ubuntu? My situation: I've been able to install numerous flavors of linux, always maintaining dual boot with Winxp. However, I am attempting to install and tryout Jaunty which will startup and work in the live session, but when while running install hangs after step 3 - when it is scanning the partitions. Any ideas [22:24] Gnea, it works when i manually load the modules [22:24] just installed compizconfig-settings-manager per your instructions and accessed it from the Appearance control panel, but it opens a window with nothing in it and then freezes and I have to close it. known bug?

[22:25] @Dr_willis - what do you make of netbook remix? I think that the default gnome interface copes rather well on a netbook actually ;) [22:25] asathoor: you switched to a 'normal' desktop ? [22:25] Gnea: panels' auto-hide is on.. how can i change the time i have to wait for it to come out? [22:25] yes [22:25] ashen_sharuga: patience, I once had something similar that got cured by standing back for a while [22:25] Gnea, how can i check that ? [22:25] sierinjs: I don't know. please wait another 5 minutes before asking, and please ask nobody in particular. [22:25] How long if reasonable? 10 mins? and hour? [22:25] and when I removed the netbook, that didnt go well with gnome the problem came [22:25] asathoor: threr is a program called 'maximus' thats auto ran - that auto-maxamizes apps.. it needs to be disabled from the gnome-startup sessions.. [22:25] ashen_sharuga: 5 minutes. [22:25] OK [22:26] asathoor: thats about the onlyu issue i saw with the netbook remix [22:26] ok, thanx a lot === zach is now known as Guest50678 [22:26] asathoor: i dident remove anyting. just disabled that autorunning of maximus [22:26] i'll try that [22:26] Nook: it works. :) but i dont care for the dumbed down desktop either. [22:26] ashen_sharuga: of course, it helps to pay attention to the HD LED and see if it's just a solid light, or if it flickers at all. [22:26] anyone have experience in configuring xorg for an ATI R HD 4850 (latest proprietary drivers)? [22:27] Nook: that 'maximus' bug is very annoying however. :) [22:27] Gnea, if i go to "hardware drivers" right after a cold boot. it says wireless driver loaded but not in use. I have to manually load them to get my wlan working [22:27] drabosta: when it boots up, issue the 'lsmod' command and look at the list to see if they're all there - also, check the output of the dmesg command to see if there are any errors [22:27] yes it is, i am trying to find maximus === jay is now known as Guest68213 [22:28] whats the command to find out my video card from terminal ? [22:28] asathoor: system-> preferances -> startup-applications [22:28] if an application u installed by compiling gets an update, you need to manually recompile the update for it to be updated? [22:28] i have an eeepc 1000 with ubuntu 9.04 - it does not connect to security enabled wireless (unsecure works fine) - any ideas? [22:28] deniz_: of course. [22:28] my ubuntu is in danish === JiYu is now known as Jiyu_ [22:28] deniz_: its not going to get updated by the package manager. [22:28] Gnea, can i put that line in /etc/rc.local and the modules will be loaded at boot ? [22:29] Dr_Willis, so such a luxury is only available through applications from repositories? [22:29] asathoor: around here 'danish' is a sweet roll you eat at breakfast. :) [22:29] deniz_: thats one of the main reasons to have a package manager. [22:29] now I found it .... :) [22:29] umm, whats the command to find out what my video card is from terminal? [22:29] Gnea, Thanks for your help :) [22:29] drabosta: it's better to check if the modules are all properly loaded or not - perhaps some of them are being prevented from loading automatically - you should check the blacklist file at /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist [22:29] asathoor: the only reason i knew to look for maximus was from trying the netbook remix in the older releases. :) [22:30] drabosta: np [22:30] and maximus is OFF [22:30] thanx dr_Willis [22:30] Guest50678: you can try lspsi [22:30] lspci [22:30] what's the difference between Firefox and Iceweasel? === LAZERBOYE is now known as Lazermann [22:30] Nook: the icons. [22:30] other than the name ofc. [22:30] Nook: the name [22:30] Nook: and the name [22:30] and icons ;) [22:30] Nook: and the 'leetness' [22:30] יקיק [22:30] heheh [22:30] lol [22:30] Nook: Iceweasel is now deprecated also [22:30] well we call it bread from vienna... [22:31] Wasn't there a licensing fiasco that caused the rebranding? [22:31] Nook: Firefox is insufficiently free for the hardcore Debianistas [22:31] anyone have experience in configuring xorg for an ATI R HD 4850 (latest proprietary drivers) :/ [22:31] Nook: fiasco vs 'over reacting' :) [22:31] how can i make it so sudo won't ask me for a password when i try to sudo [command] ? [22:31] Nook: exactly, but that was specifically for Debian [22:31] has anyone here ever made a DVD with Devede? [22:31] ah ok. [22:31] deniz_: ubuntu is not a source distro... but you could possibly automate rebuilds based on repository updates. or use a source distro like gentoo [22:31] Nook: note that Ubuntu is "based on" Debian, it is NOT Debian [22:31] :) [22:31] homeskill: edit the /etc/sudoers file with visudo and RESEARCH sudo befor editing that file. [22:31] yep, I know that part ^^ [22:31] homeskill: and back it up.. you can really goof things up :) [22:31] Dr_Willis is it less safe? [22:32] Does anyone know whether there is any package for software modem for Toshiba Satellite running Ubuntu 8.10 [22:32] ? [22:32] gordonjcp: not exactly... debian wants to patch the ff tree, and firefox only allows their branding on their compiles [22:32] Thanks in advance [22:32] yoasif: which is fair enough [22:32] !modem | Lazermann [22:32] Lazermann: You want to connect via dial-up? Read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DialupModemHowto [22:32] Nook: hehe, just making sure - many don't, so want to make sure the message is clear [22:32] guys, if i reformat the drive and install 8.04 instead of 9.04 will my startup screen(boot menu) get ruined? [22:32] Gnea: well thats debatable, especially with the utnubu group. [22:32] homeskill: i set it up where spefifc users can run specific apps without needing the sudo password.. You can easially add security 'holes' if you are not carefull [22:32] thank will look [22:32] grrrr anyone here know how to use xmacrorec to get it to record toa file? [22:32] Gnea: No worries - I'm not that much of a b00b, [22:32] yoasif: I may release my projects under the Mozilla licence, or refuse to allow Debian maintainers to package it altogether... [22:33] The issue I think isn't with Jaunty - I tried to use an old ubuntu 8.04.2 just to see if I could still install that way. The same sort of thing is happening - it hangs after scanning for the partitions. Windows can still startup, so it would seem that partition tables are still ok. So why can the live cd 'see' all the partitions, but can't mount or install to them? [22:33] Anyone remember MadFox? [22:33] how to I enable accelration via chrome [22:33] anybody [22:33] gordonjcp: whys that [22:33] also how to connect through VPN on 8.10??? [22:33] umm, with the new distro of ubuntu, my display driver isn't supported, what must i do to fix this ? [22:33] Jeruvy: it's not debatable. Ubuntu uses the .deb package management system, but it doesn't use the actualy .deb files. Many are rebranded, but the information within the .deb files themselves are changed, and so therefore they are not Debian packages. [22:33] Anyone have experience in configuring xorg for an ATI R HD 4850 (latest proprietary drivers) :/ [22:33] yoasif: Debian vandalism, misdescribed packages, broken packages, general messing about [22:33] Does anybody know maybe, if i reformat this partition and reinstall 8.04 will i have troubles with the boot menu showing 9.04 still? [22:33] If anyone is experiencing a problem using the "import wizard" in amarok 2.0.2 to import their old 1.4 colections.db try sudo apt-get install libqt4-sql-sqlite restart amarok 2.0.2 go to setting>configure amarok>collection>import collection>amarok 1.4 and it should import your db [22:34] gordonjcp: simplest way to solve that is to package it yourself. [22:34] mythos: just change the menu.lst file perhaps? [22:34] exodus_ms: so it wasn't deleted after all? [22:34] oops, sorry, That is if you are using sqlite and not mysql [22:34] how do I list & connect to wireless network trough the terminal? [22:34] which one should i use [22:34] yoasif: I wrote a softsynth plugin which was packaged for Debian, with the wrong contact details, wrongly attributed, wrongly described and not actually from a working SVN checkout [22:34] hello, my sound isn't working, I tried several things but it's still not working [22:34] Dr_Willis: where is it located?(Linux n00b here) [22:34] which one should i use - ~/.Xdefaults or ~/Xresources ? [22:34] yoasif: the maintainer refused to answer any emails, other people at his organisation refused to do anything about it [22:34] mythos: /boot/grub/menu.lst [22:34] yoasif: eventually I went and spoke to one of his colleagues at LRL and was able to sort-of salvage the situation [22:35] hbekel, no, just missing libqt4-sql-sqlite needed for amarok 2.0.2 to import 1.4 sqlite collections.db [22:35] last question :P, anyone know any cmd for view the creation date of a file? CREATION DATE, no last edit. [22:35] Anyone using xf86-video-intel video driver_ [22:35] ? [22:35] mythos: backup the original. and read the grub docs :) [22:35] ok, thanx to dr-Willis maximus is off, and everything works fine... [22:35] b4sher: i dont think thats reorded. [22:35] gordonjcp: that doesn't speak badly of Debian but of the maintainer [22:35] does ubuntu have a problem with all wpa enabled wireless, or just mine? [22:35] b4sher: recorded. - ive seen that asked befor. [22:35] is anyone else experience very slow download speeds from the 9.04 repos? [22:35] Gnea: you missed my point entirely. If Ubuntu is "feeding" packages BACK to Debian, then can you REALLY HONESTLY say it isn't related? But take it in light jest as it's meant :) [22:35] svensko: servers are loaded. [22:35] !load [22:35] Sorry, I don't know anything about load [22:35] svensko >> you can change to the fastest server [22:35] umm, with the new distro of ubuntu, my display driver isn't supported, what must i do to fix this ? [22:36] Jeruvy: fair enough :) [22:36] ah, makes sense Dr_Willis [22:36] hbekel, my old db was still intact ~/.kde/share/apps/amarok/collection.db [22:36] dtchen: yeah, but there's no mechanism in place to "appeal to a higher power" and pull a bogus package [22:36] How do I see in Ubuntu which video driver is system using? [22:36] Dr_Willis, recorded? recorded file ? [22:36] Svenstaro; http://www.ubuntugeek.com/how-to-select-fastest-mirror-in-ubuntu.html [22:36] WAT [22:36] Dr_Willis haha [22:36] b4sher: the creation date is not stored. just the last access/written date i belive [22:36] !ru [22:36] Пожалуйста посетите #ubuntu-ru для получения помощи на русском языке / Pozhalujsta posetite #ubuntu-ru dlya polucheniya pomoshi na russkom yazyke [22:36] Anyone have experience in configuring xorg for an ATI R HD 4850 (latest proprietary drivers) [22:36] hey anyone found ntfs-3g or ntfs-config gui based tool on synaptic??? in jaunty [22:37] Dr_Willis ok thanks [22:37] blist [22:37] Dr_Willis: if i format the drive and reinstall 8.04 won't it recreate that file then? [22:37] s_spiff: isn't ntfs just a filesystem? [22:37] Dr_Willis: *partition [22:37] mythos: if you reinstall.. it will remake it. of course. :) [22:37] hi everyone [22:37] Of the many things I enjoy doing... one of the highest has got to be sitting in bed with me EEE. [22:38] Dr_Willis: yeah, i'm a java programmer and i've got bugs in 9.04 crashing the system when the applet is loaded here [22:38] gordonjcp: i know it is a file system. But ntfs-3g and ntfs-config are packages in repos which allow you to read write to your windows partitions :) [22:38] Nook: you lie.. We know you take it to the Loo. :) [22:38] hey niggas [22:38] Nook: Im in the Garrage with mine. [22:38] Dr_Willis: some1 told me its because of Xorg1.6 [22:38] Oh god, it's true!

No biggie. [22:39] Sorry if I'm going on about it. You see, I live in South Africa where the EEE isn't available. It took 5 weeks to import mine, and I got it 2 days ago. So I'm happy! [22:39] mythos: no idea on that. I missed the original problem [22:39] I just have to say I LOVE the new pidgin alerts and now playing info the way it's displayed on Jaunty =) [22:39] sorry me due to the intrusion but I've got a problem with amarok 2, my system is fresh of Jaunty [22:39] gordonjcp: true. which if i'm not mistaken is ntfs-3g. [22:39] I just finished upgrading to 9.04 but I got this error: update-initramfs: failed for /boot/initrd.img-2.6.27-11-generic [22:39] dpkg: subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 1 [22:39] Nook, i'm actually using myAspire one at the office, since I didn't feel like carrying the 17" on the Motorcycle today. [22:39] Is lilo the new standard for bootloader now? [22:39] is there anyone who could help me? it's about media devices manager [22:39] what does it mean: [22:39] Dr_Willis: my applet crashes Ubuntu 9.04, and worked well for me under windows, i was told its a known Bug that sun needs to fix and its because of Xorg1.6 [22:39] peope: lilo is the OLD OLD OLD stanbdard [22:39] are any of you 5stARS [22:40] Dr_Willis: and that i should install an older DiST of ubuntu for it to work well(that has xorg1.5) [22:40] haven't tried jaunty what's it like [22:40] pretty good [22:40] are there any Italian people in this chat?

[23:18] dooner: pebkac is the one i know "problem exists between keyboard and chair" [23:18] I converted to ext4, and just left all my stuff alone. [23:18] PhotoJim: you start screen with -U, for irssi, there's a uh, /set term_charset utf-8 [23:18] yep, PICNIC, PEBKAC, ID10T [23:18] Alabaster_W: If I remember right, there is a way to override the bad sector warning, but it requires some effort and it's not particularly intuitive. It didn't do me much good. [23:18] dooner, I'm going to shamelessly steal that one and use it :P [23:18] Flannel: Thanks. I'll check that out. any other UTF settings, or will utf-8 handle everything? [23:18] LinuxIdiot, ok so if that gnash doesn't suit your needs, do sudo apt-get remove --purge gnash mozilla-plugin-gnash && sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree but just out of curiosity...doesnt firefox give you a selection of flash applications to download & install when you visit a website with flash? [23:18] we have lots of ways of closing trouble tickets :) [23:18] russianzilla: it's probably safer to reformat. I'll try again [23:18] exodus_ms, I stole it from some place, so knock yourself out. [23:18] Thank you #ubuntu! [23:19] yeah I get the option for a few different downloads [23:19] you people are awesome [23:19] hello [23:19] i've used it to close a variety of Trouble Tickets :) [23:19] hey [23:19] have a very pleasent day! [23:19] dooner, cool [23:19] i have ubuntu 8.10, is it easy to upgrade to 9.04, or likely to corrupt my system? am i better off backin up everything, formatting and straight installing jaunty? [23:19] i accidentally removed the network manager panel app (nm-applet), how do i get it back to the tray? [23:19] :Please register with services and use the IDENTIFY command (/msg nickserv help) to speak in this channel <--- what does that mean?

[23:20] alt-f2 and nm-applet. [23:20] homeskill: Possibly. I updated yesterday and had to work out a few kinks, but for the most part it was alright. It varies. [23:20] if wicd is installed.. you have to reinstall network-manager-gnome. [23:20] DanaG, cool thanks [23:20] s/and/, / [23:20] PhotoJim: That should handle everything. There may be a way to set screen to UTF as well once youre running it, but I'm not aware of it. It'll likely be with whatever the key combo is to allow you to set parameters (which I can't ever remember) [23:21] homeskill, i dont know if things changed but based on my experience ubuntu breaks on upgrades, debian doesn't [23:21] hi all [23:21] hey [23:21] deniz_ ive had debian break on upgrades because of things like glibc [23:21] Flannel: that's ok. I need to reboot the machine on which screen is running. I'll just deploy it with the correct settings. Thanks again for the help. [23:21] though that was 5 years ago [23:21] I'm running 9.0.4 via VMware fusion on the Mac. I have a new Apple mini keyboard without the numpad. Anyone know how I can map the delete key to backspace in Ubuntu. Its driving me nuts. [23:21] PhotoJim: no problem [23:21] how can i see the new notifications on ubuntu??? [23:21] i need desktop effects? what the fuck i need? [23:22] dob1: 1. stop cursing [23:22] I am looking for a way to get hardware manager to re-ask me about using restricted drivers is there a way to do this? I hit cancel the first time because apt-get was running in a nother window but now i want to enable them (nvidia 700m ubuntu8.10) [23:22] Hi [23:22] some1 with a little experience on using ipsec servers? i'm trying to figure out which of the *swans is "the best" (need windows compat) [23:22] !language | dob1 [23:22] dob1: Please watch your language and topic to help keep this channel family friendly. [23:22] homeskill, i find that shocking, anyways what i would recommend is you back up all your data then upgrade without a fresh reinstall [23:22] Is it stable the 9.04 version? [23:22] my computer doesn't appear to have sound [23:22] dob1: 2. for the notifications, try using a messenging app like pidgin [23:22] dob1, you should just google your simple problem and stop cursing [23:22] 9.94 64 bit works gerat for me [23:22] PCM is turned up [23:22] I've had no issues with upgrades, usually. [23:22] gidna, they released it, of course [23:22] *9.04 [23:22] homeskill: I've upgraded twice before, once through Network Upgrade and once through the Alternate CD. The Alternate CD worked pretty well, but I had to reinstall a few programs. If you're handy enough, go for the upgrade. If it breaks, well, then just reinstall. Win-win. [23:22] and the volume is up as well [23:23] i just want to know if i need desktop effects or not for this new feature [23:23] my computer is a sony brand [23:23] g33knik: there's an app in the Administration menu that will let you install hardware drivers. [23:23] hi. does jaunty supports ati radeon 4870 ?? [23:23] oj: That sort of attitude ("Just google it") isn't something we like to promote in this channel. Please refrain from it. Thanks.

[23:23] Is it true that the new version boots faster than the others? [23:23] its an old computer and there's seemed to be a malfunction in my computer [23:23] no sound in internet and in start up [23:23] !release | gidna [23:23] gidna: Ubuntu releases a new version every 6 months.

Flash/Firefox work fine w/o compiz, and Compiz works great but screws up Flash/Firefox. I've looked around online, but I haven't found any real suggestions to accomodate them both together, any suggestions? [23:24] linduxed: i know, just my question is: this new feature is related to desktop effects? [23:24] dob1: no [23:24] linduxed: ok thanks [23:24] I'm running ubuntu 9.04 [23:24] photojim: when i go to hardware drivers it doesnt show anything, the first time ever I went to it i had to click cancel when it asked about enabling restricted drivers. I want to either have it ask me again so i can click enable or enable it manually [23:24] switched from ubuntu 8.10 [23:24] anybody help me? [23:25] hey guys i have ubuntu 8.04.2 hardy i got support till 2011 should i update to new one? 9.04 [23:25] yes [23:25] its faster [23:25] g33knik: if there are restricted drivers, it should still prompt you there if you want to use them. it will first search to see if any are available. you haven't screwed yourself up. [23:25] and appear better [23:25] AAA28: Probably not. If there's nothing that sticks out at you, stick with 8.04 until the next LTS (10.04) [23:25] AAA28: depends on how important stability is to you. the more important your machine is, the less incentive to upgrade yet. [23:25] Hello [23:25] i will wait for next lts [23:26] thanks guys [23:26] agree - no need to change [23:26] I have a issue [23:26] about my computer sound [23:26] join xubuntu [23:26] photojim: i never installed the restricted nvidia drivers but now i want to and it is not asking me to do it again. i tried apt-get install nvidia-glx and tried envy without success [23:26] did it work with 8.10 ? [23:26] ok I now have flash functioning, thanks deniz [23:26] hey all, what is the purpose of the /lib/firmware directory?

[23:30] mastaofdisasta: for wireless card firmware i belive [23:30] dreamy: to connect it try xrandr --auto [23:30] what's the go with installing restricted drivers (nvidia) on jaunty? [23:30] illumin8: Puppy linux, tiny core linux, feature linux. [23:30] RobTheHam: if you press alt-F2, alt-F3 etc. you should be able to find a login prompt. you can log in and then try reconfiguring gdm. [23:30] hello anyone know how to restart compiz when crash without restarting? [23:30] illumin8: or track down some moar ram! [23:30] Jamed: to connect my svideo out ? .. does xrandr connects it ? [23:30] Dr_Willis, thank you :) [23:30] illumin8: or learn to use the console [23:31] Jamed: ill try it.. [23:31] ALiENr0x: install and run 'fusion-icon' it makes it easy === mirk_ is now known as mirk [23:31] dreamy: running yrandr only just tells you what is connected [23:31] I'm running 9.0.4 via VMware fusion on the Mac.

[23:31] Dr_Willis: I'm aware of that, but I was looking for more details on it. [23:31] Dr_Willis: no work good.. crash on start [23:31] Anyone? [23:31] dreamy: i mean xrandr [23:31] PhotoJim - unfortunately that doesn't work, keyboard etc frozen, have to go into recovery mode to anywhere at all [23:32] Jamed: i did xrandr auto.. no errors were reported .. but it still displays the svideo is disconnected [23:32] RobTheHam: can you ssh in from another machine? failing that try rebooting into a rescue kernel. [23:32] ALiENr0x: you got somthing real goofy then. yoy mean the desktop crashes whtn the user logs in? [23:32] Dr_Willis: does the kernel automatically recognize that directory as a firmware directory? [23:32] Dr_Willis: only on log in dont crash :) [23:32] mastaofdisasta: i think the kernel modules some how look there. [23:32] anyone: what is working nvidia 7000m acer laptop driver (works with compiz) restricted or not - ubuntu 8.10 [23:32] Dr_Willis: with compiz --replace crash [23:33] PhotoJim - yeah can boot a rescue kernel, found lots of reports of similar problems but none exactly the same [23:33] Jamed: u think ill be needing xrandr after using atitvout .. and running it (atitvout ntsc) and no errors occured [23:33] dreamy: did you read the manpage of xrandr, maybe theres yomething abaout your problem [23:33] RobTheHam: do you know what is causing the failure? [23:33] dreamy: i am don't know atitvout [23:34] how do i make ubuntu log out after a certain amount of inactivity and go to the login screen for another user like it does on windows [23:34] ok jamed .. [23:34] fantasma: i believe in screen saver options you will find a checkbox for what you want [23:35] screen saver asks for a password to log back in [23:35] fantasma: ive never seen a way to make the user log out.. seen where itgoes to a screen where a different user can start a new session. Not sure its possble to force a logout easially [23:35] fantasma: you can make it lock screen with an option to switch user....that work? [23:35] i want other users to be able to log back in [23:35] that might [23:35] let me check it out [23:35] fantasma: there's a button on the password box to switch user [23:35] what is the conf file for screen resolution? My GUI does not reflect my monitor's capabilities [23:35] It would really suck of you got forced to logout because you went to the loo. :) [23:36] artzymama: there is a setting in the Administration and Preferences menus to set screen resolution. (can't remember which one it's in, but one of the two) [23:36] dr willis you get logged out while getting a log out lmfao [23:36] PhotoJim - from the Xorg.0.log it looks like Xwindows can't find the keyboard or mouse. Checked devices with hal-device and they look OK. Also tried 'X -configure' to see what that came up with - again all devices look OK in xorg.conf.new [23:36] PhotoJim, see note...my GUI doesn't show it [23:36] artzymama: shouldnt involve a conf file anymore. check system -> preferences -> display [23:36] g33knik: thats why we have wireless.. :) [23:36] artzymama: then X isn't detecting that it's possible [23:36] artzymama: sorry, missed that. perhaps try reconfiguring gdm? [23:36] anyone knows of a free shell provider on port 443 allowing port forwarding? [23:36] RobTheHam: hmm, weird that it wouldn't see keyboard or mouse. PS/1 or USB? [23:36] artzymama: at least, that's what i'd guess it is. what does xrandr say? === veovis is now known as veovis_ === veovis_ is now known as veovis [23:37] deowood: what are youy trying to do exactly? [23:37] PhotoJim, remind me the command [23:37] maco, one sec [23:37] does anyone with a Wacom Bamboo see the cursor jiggle around constantly? [23:37] artzymama: I'd have to google it. have a google and I can give you a hand if you can't find it. [23:37] PhotoJim - PS/2 keyb and USB mouse [23:37] Regarding Link Layer Topology Discovery Protocol installation for Vista network discovery map of Ubuntu, I attempted (miserably) to perform the instructions followed at ( http://www.howtoforge.com/installing-the-lltd-protocol-responder-for-linux-on-debian-lenny ) but the final lld2d.exe does not execute upon using "start", anyone out their successfully performed this using howtoforge or another method please say so. [23:37] PhotoJim, been there...now I'm here [23:37] l8tr all [23:37] anyone use ESRI BusinessMAP 5? [23:37] RobTheHam: hmm, weird. keyboard & mouse work ok in Windows set up that way? [23:37] hello...? [23:38] hi [23:38] artzymama: k. hopefully someone else has more expertise on this than I do, then. [23:38] deowood: ! :) [23:38] maco, says I can go to 1280x1024, but gui shows only 1024 x 768 as max...xrandar differs [23:39] well i have to access internet via ssh [23:39] Quick grub question: I had Vista and Kubuntu 9.04 (ext4) installed, and I just added Ubuntu 8.10 to the mix, forgetting that it would overwrite GRUB [23:39] !lamp [23:39] LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP. However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL. For help with setting up LAMP on Ubuntu, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP - See also the Server CD installation process (different in Edgy+) [23:39] artzymama: xrandr -s 1280x1024 [23:39] hence i need any free shell provider... [23:39] !find libdb-4.1.so [23:39] Package/file libdb-4.1.so does not exist in jaunty [23:39] argh! [23:39] Xilinx tools need that library. [23:39] I am using 9.04 on a laptop, how do I make it so no sound comes out of my laptop speakers, but sound does come out of my external speakers? [23:39] DO I have to go fish around for the Intrepid version? [23:39] libdb-4.2.so [23:40] !find libdb-4.2.so [23:40] File libdb-4.2.so found in libdb4.2 [23:40] PhotoJim - Windows!!! Everything was fine under 8.10 - machine is an Ideq SFF with SIS 65X integrated graphics (the drivers for that are loading OK so I don't think that's the problem), only has Ubuntu [23:40] Where's 4.1? [23:40] i was about to upgrade to 9.04 with ext4 support, anything i should know or be worried about? [23:40] hi all, awhile back I switched to wicd and I'm not happy with it. However, if I alt-f2 and try to run nm-applet it's not found. How do I switch back to the default one? [23:40] I installed KDE on top of Ubuntu 8.10 and am using the GRUB editor from there, but I don't know the kernel path [23:40] abstortedminds: when in doubt.. backup stuff [23:40] Anyone familiar with Link Layer Topology Discovery Protocol please mention so I would like your help implementing this. [23:40] LinuxIdiot: if the speakers are plugged into a headphone jack, should just work. if they're USB, they actually are a physically separate sound card so you'll have to change your system settings to use that sound card instead of the built-in one. [23:40] the external speakers work just fine, but I don't want the laptop speakers to work [23:41] hey [23:41] RobTheHam: have you tried booting the Ubuntu install CD to the live desktop to see if the mouse/keyboard work there? [23:41] PhotoJim: actually, I have the same problem [23:41] can anyone help me with pulse audio? [23:41] veovis: with the audio problem or with the mouse/keyboard problem? [23:41] PhotoJim: on my laptop, plugging in a 3.5mm jack does nothing [23:41] its on and everything, but I don't think its connected in my computer's built in spwaker [23:42] LinuxIdiot: I wonder if it's a hardware issue. plugging in the external speakers into the headphone jack should disable the built-in audio. [23:42] I really wish there were an open-source alternative to the Xilinx EDK. [23:42] veovis: hmm, that's a different problem. [23:42] is it possible to have a user that has no password? [23:42] PhotoJim - that was my next step - I've got an old live CD but would need to download the same for Jaunty - guess I'm just going to have to bit e the bullet and do it :-) [23:42] fantasma, yes [23:42] fantasma: yes. [23:42] Hi guys i've problem with my intel GM965 card (graphics card) it's not working .i just need to run the desktop effects . ofcourseon ubuntu 9.04 [23:42] new user account wont let me create it... [23:42] RobTheHam: :) it would give you some additional information. you coudl also try a different mouse & keyboard, or different ports. [23:42] I think you may have to use the passwd command or edit the passed file manmally [23:42] PhotoJim: no, it's the same, plugging in a 3.5mm jack into the laptop's sound card does not route the sound to the speakers, they play on my laptop speakers [23:43] hm [23:43] ok [23:43] Yusbuntu: its disabled in 9.04 at the moment due to a bug [23:43] fantasma: not really reccomended. :) [23:43] yeah [23:43] its a guest account [23:43] don't worry... [23:43] There was a 'guest' feature in ubuntu i thought. [23:43] DanaG: Don't we all. It's not even free for linux. There are some HDL utilities in the repos though, I'm not aware of anything that's packaged up like Xilinx though. [23:43] is there? [23:43] veovis: usually those jacks are wired via hardware to automatically disable the built-in speakers... the same way that it works if you plug headphones into a ghetto blaster. [23:43] fantasma, heh. We worry not, it is your machine ;-) === family is now known as Res|Xchat [23:43] I think I was doing something to the permissions in my home directory when my desktop icons stopped displaying properly... [23:43] DanaG, http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/158173/ [23:43] but not really a guest account. you have to login as a different user first. then you can go 'guest' and let a friend borrow the pc [23:43] And the EDK is MicroBlaze, not just vhdl. [23:44] ok I'm back with "yet" another problem [23:44] I'll set it going overnight - I just feel like it's something really simple that I'm missing but like I said Ubuntu/Debian is unfamiliar to me [23:44] now the automatic upgrade box doesn't pop up when I put the DVD in the drive [23:44] fantasma: or just make the password guest and set the wallpaper/motd to say that [23:44] Hi everyone [23:44] DanaG: kpicosim will do picoblaze stuff. [23:44] and my system keeps reverting back to the old install [23:44] if ServA has access to a subnet and you want ServB to use that same connection without it being a NAT do you have to do anything beside turn on ip_forwarding and add a static route on ServB to point to ServA for that subnet? [23:44] all you need for a guest account is mount a tmpfs on a "guest user" home directory, really [23:44] PhotoJim: yeah, it's wierd. Normally that's what it does, but apparently mine do it through drivers [23:44] I was somewhere around 1085 packages of 1474 [23:45] and it does this [23:45] so [23:45] how do i remove the password? [23:45] passwd wont let me leave it blank [23:45] I have been struggling to set up a software Raid1. There are a few nuances. Can sone one help? Private msg would be more convenient i suppose [23:45] veovis: I've not run into that. [23:45] is my system just retarded or what is wrong here [23:45] I installed new ram also [23:45] I dunno if that will have anything to do with the new problem [23:45] I added 256 mb more ram on this old machine [23:45] micro != pico.

(string example: ~/Desktop/dir1/dir2) [23:46] can i just remove the encrypted pass [23:46] Hi everyone, my output device isn't working [23:46] and replace it with a * like it has for the other users [23:46] If anyone have ideas why i can't make my radeon 9700 work in ubuntu 9.04 i would be thankful. :) [23:46] I want to let my input device work [23:47] fantasma: uh, * would be "cannot log in, period" [23:47] fantasma: a * ? huh? [23:47] oh [23:47] so what do i put [23:47] instead of a * [23:47] fantasma: man passwd :) [23:47] maco why is it desaibled? [23:47] man passwd. [23:47] :: perhaps - ie blank. [23:47] Yusbuntu: he's referring to system users [23:47] Yusbuntu: like cups [23:48] if you leave it blank, that wipes the password [23:48] ah ok [23:48] n/m I fixed it [23:48] maco so that mean there is no solution ?? [23:48] was a prob with gksu [23:48] fantasma: note that the users that DO hae a password have a huge string of gobbly-gook :) thats the encrypoted password in that field. some how... [23:48] killed restarted it [23:48] works now [23:48] maco or even i've to wait some updates??

[23:49] fantasma: set the 2nd field in /etc/shadow to be :: (ie blank) it says? :) [23:49] RobTheHam: np, good luck :) [23:50] hey all, i have a quick question if anyone feels like helping me out. in my system monitor i have two processes: "tracker-extract" and "tracker-indexer" that are taking up to 100% at times, does anyone know what these are because this is the first time it's happened [23:50] maco so that mean there is no solution for the intel graphics card???? [23:50] Yusbuntu: unless you want it to be crashy....no [23:51] Yusbuntu: well i mean, you can set compiz to skip checks [23:51] what is the pad to gedit? [23:51] pad? or path? [23:51] Yusbuntu: compiz has i965 blacklisted. whether its due to actual instability in this version or expected instability in a newer version that ubuntu ships, i am unsure [23:52] path* srry [23:52] usr/bin/gedit i believe [23:52] WIth a / at the beginning [23:53] when running kvm my bridge keeps being created with 192.168.122.1 as ip although I have changed it in /etc/libvirt/qemu/networks/default.xml to another value, where does this come from? [23:53] maco do you mean i've to wait ubuntu 9.10 ??? [23:53] but you should just be able to type "gedit" in either the terminal or run application box [23:53] Yusbuntu: oh no, its something they just ran out of time on and expect to fix in the next few weeks, i think [23:54] i have a question regarding software raid [23:54] ever since upgrade to jaunty, pidgin isn't working. It was giving a "segmentation fault" error. I reinstalled and now I get "Illegal Instruction"/ [23:54] if two hard drives are mirrored... and the raid 'name' is md0 [23:54] is md0 what I add in fstab? [23:54] kesiode, how did you reinstall? make config or apt-get? [23:54] kesiode where did you get the pidgin install from ? [23:54] kfizz: I needet it for greasemonkey in firefox. Asked me wich editor I wanted to use to edit scripts. /bin/usr/gedit was the answer, thx :) [23:54] Adil use uuid's, but yes /dev/md0 would also work [23:54] kfizz, ikonia I used apt-get to remove and install [23:55] welcome, happy coding [23:55] my usb memories are not being mounted, dmesg | tail doen't show nothing about it, any idea? [23:55] Adil: yes. I've noticed too that there needs to be a bootdelay=xx factor added to the grub menu.lst too, at least on my server. otherwise the raid md device isn't "up" yet when the sysetm tries to mount / ... shouldn't be aproblem if you aren't using the array as / [23:55] ok i will wait them , thank you Mr.maco and i hope from you to talk with ubuntu staff to solve the problem [23:55] MaT-dg: /usr/bin/ [23:55] Yusbuntu: ms [23:55] if sda is what is being mirrored, do I need to add sdb's uuid in fstab as well? [23:56] if only two devices for raid1 [23:56] Adil: no, just the meta devices, not /dev/sda or /dev/sb [23:56] When dmraid is installed, uuids match the metadevice. [23:56] kesiode: what did you say happened when you try running pidgin from the command line? [23:56] Adil: no. the raid array has its own UUID. [23:56] Adil: just the uuid OR device name for /dev/md0 [23:56] oh, you're using md, not dm. [23:56] ok [23:56] kfizz, it tries to open and then gives an "Illegal Instruction" error [23:56] so if i need to make a file system, I would make a filesystem for md0 [23:56] is that correct? [23:56] Adil: yes, treat it as a disk [23:57] ok [23:57] thank you [23:57] Adil: Yup. mkfs.ext3 (or whatever) /dev/md0 (or whatever) === ubuntu is now known as Tobias| [23:57] um there's this bar on the bottom of my 'screen' how do i turn it off? [23:57] i need an easy to use macro making programme for recording mouse and keyboard movements [23:58] kesiode: have you tried using synaptic and right clicking on pidgin and marking "For Complete Removal"? [23:58] Hey guys, I installed Ubuntu 9.04 and after installation, Windows 7's boot manager is still the primary... I called Ubuntu onto my 2nd HDD. [23:58] called - installed* [23:58] Hiya people. I'm currently running Xubuntu 8.10 via a live CD. Forgive me for the possibly ignorant question, but where would I go to access the NTFS partition on my HDD? [23:58] illmortal: then your bios is not booting the disk where you installed grub [23:58] One last question. I fdisked sda into sda1 and sda2 and gave them Id fd for raid auto detect [23:58] maco, my screen goes berserk when I try that setting...my screen resolution worked in the previous 2 versions of ubuntu...uuurrrgggghhhh...thoughts? [23:59] kesiode: that way all config files that were created will be removed also [23:59] artzymama: goes berserk? [23:59] i can see them in fdisk.. but mdadm can not open them [23:59] hello [23:59] best vnc server software? [23:59] Adil: mdadm doesn't "open" disks [23:59] kfizz, doing that now, how would you like me to reinstall [23:59] anyone know where I can find a guide for doing routing on ubuntu (not NAT, just routing) [23:59] well let me rephrase that [23:59] kesiode: either syanptic or apt-get [23:59] i am trying to create level1 raid for sda1 and sdb1 [23:59] maco, berserk = changes and covers only 3/4 of screen, and "kind of" locks up on me [23:59] nicholashubbard: routing is done with iptables, there are some good guides on the netfilter site [23:59] I have 9.04 64 bit on my laptop, I have my external and laptop speakers working just fine. How do I get it so that my laptop speakers don't work but the external speakers do? It worked fine in Vista [23:59] ikonia, I checked bios and even making Ubuntu's HDD the primary in BIOS still Windows 7's boot manager shows. [23:59] nicholashubbard: I don't think that this is an Ubuntu specific topic. Check out the iproute guide [23:59] but mdadm gives me the error cannot open /dev/sda1 [23:59] kesiode: not sure, but it's possible could be a bad config file that's causing the error
