| mzz | abz___: also, confirm it mounts when you invoke mount directly including -t vfat | 00:00 |

| pipegeek | mzz, abz___: I think if the capitalization thing were the problem, it would fail differently. You're sure it's a FAT partition? | 00:00 |

| iamturnip | Hello, is there a IRC channel for UNR?? | 00:00 |
|---|
| Gartral1 | will sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop still switch say a kde desktop to a gnome one? | 00:00 |
|---|
| koshari | SiDi hostkey? | 00:00 |
|---|
| lstarnes | bruenig: ubuntu 9.04 can use either | 00:00 |
|---|
| TopBunny88 | i am using ext4 | 00:00 |
|---|
| mattgyver | I just installed windows 7, now grub doesnt load how can i reinstall this? | 00:00 |
|---|
| pipegeek | let me test that assumption | 00:00 |
|---|
| SiDi | koshari, Right ctrl by default under virtualbox | 00:00 |
|---|
| ceil420 | Gartral1, it'll make it available from the 'Sessions' menu in the login screen, yes | 00:00 |
|---|
| Gartral1 | !info ubuntu-desktop | 00:00 |
|---|
| ubottu | ubuntu-desktop (source: ubuntu-meta): The Ubuntu desktop system. In component main, is optional. Version 1.140 (jaunty), package size 28 kB, installed size 56 kB | 00:01 |
|---|
| ceil420 | Gartral1, you'll still be able to choose the KDE desktop if you wish | 00:01 |
|---|
| smitch | hi all | 00:01 |
|---|
| Gartral1 | ok, thanks | 00:01 |
|---|
| SiDi | iamturnip, it's the default support channel, feel free to ask here. I suppose there should be an UNR channel though. | 00:01 |
|---|
| bruenig | Gartral1: i t d o e s n o t s w i t c h t h e d e s k t o p i t j u s t i n s t a l l s i t a l o n g s i d e i t | 00:01 |
|---|
| abz___ | yeah fat32 partition. ok it mounts now gid and uid are in lowercase but i still can't write to it...read only | 00:01 |
|---|
| shrimants | mattgyver: just install grub | 00:01 |
|---|
| shrimants | run grub and run the commands to install it | 00:01 |
|---|
| mzz | bruenig: can you use fewer spaces please? You're hard to read | 00:01 |
|---|
| barqers | Guys can someone please help me? I'm trying to install ati drivers, and I keep getting this error! "Error: ./default_policy.sh does not support version" | 00:01 |
|---|
| cspack | mattgyver: make sure your menu.lst is right, then sudo update-grub | 00:01 |
|---|
| bruenig | mzz: w h a t ? | 00:01 |
|---|
| demon_ | doleyb, every program cheese amsn and i still cant make it lighter | 00:01 |
|---|
| pipegeek | shit abz___ , mzz: I was wrong. The capitalization issue *does* cause that error message. Asinine. | 00:01 |
|---|
| mattgyver | shrimants, cspack, it loads win7 first, can i just do this from a live cd? | 00:02 |
|---|
| lstarnes | bruenig: your text is showing up with spaces between letters, e.g, "w h a t" | 00:02 |
|---|
| iamturnip | SiDi: thanks, I am looking for a netboot.tar.gz for UNR | 00:02 |
|---|
| mzz | bruenig: "< bruenig> mzz: w h a t ?" | 00:02 |
|---|
| doleyb | demon_: can you try lucview ? | 00:02 |
|---|
| demon_ | no | 00:02 |
|---|
| bruenig | lstarnes: i s t h i s a b u g ? | 00:02 |
|---|
| mzz | bruenig: that's how you're showing up here. Please show up as "< bruenig> mzz: what?" instead. | 00:02 |
|---|
| abz___ | ok but still can't write to the drive....what's the issue? is is maybe something to do with when i mkdir 320gb in the /media | 00:02 |
|---|
| doleyb | demon_: not an luc chip? what chip is it? | 00:02 |
|---|
| lstarnes | bruenig: what client are you using? | 00:02 |
|---|
| ahmad | cuddlefish?\ | 00:03 |
|---|
| demon_ | doleyb, v4l2 i think | 00:03 |
|---|
| cspack | mattgyver: yes, you just need to mount your /boot drive and update-grub. should work | 00:03 |
|---|
| bruenig | mzz: w h e r e c a n i r e p o r t t h i s b u g i n u b u n t u ? | 00:03 |
|---|
| momo__ | LOL | 00:03 |
|---|
| pipegeek | possible bruenig's sending UTF16 | 00:03 |
|---|
| pipegeek | that might explain it | 00:03 |
|---|
| mzz | pipegeek: it did mention "bad option", and you should assume case-sensitive until proven otherwise :) | 00:03 |
|---|
| lstarnes | ahmad: cuddlefish is not here. You can check by looking in the user list or by doing /whois cuddlefish | 00:03 |
|---|
| mzz | and yeah, utf-16 would be my guess | 00:03 |
|---|
| ahmad | ok | 00:03 |
|---|
| bruenig | h m m m m | 00:03 |
|---|
| SiDi | iamturnip, do you mean a CD image ? | 00:03 |

| pipegeek | mzz: I know.... bad ptr | 00:03 |
|---|
| ahmad | well he/she was helping me and now he/she is gone | 00:04 |

| ahmad | i need help | 00:04 |

| lstarnes | bruenig: check your encoding in irssi | 00:04 |
|---|
| pipegeek | err, pipegeek (forgot my nick for a sec) | 00:04 |
|---|
| mzz | heh | 00:04 |
|---|
| iamturnip | SiDi: no, I am using netinstalls over here, I have a full desktop 9.04, pxeboot installing ya know | 00:04 |
|---|
| doleyb | demon_: v4l2 is a software protocol, not a chip. Did you try luvcview and nothing happened? | 00:04 |
|---|
| * mzz was wondering what pointers had to do with this | 00:04 |
| bruenig | lstarnes: h o w d o i d o t h a t ? | 00:04 |

|---|
| iamturnip | SiDi: I would like to have pxe boot option for netbooks when people come over | 00:04 |

|---|
| demon_ | doleyb, how can i check that | 00:05 |
|---|
| pipegeek | abz___ if it's fat, then the filesystem permissions are determined when you mount the drive. You probably mounted it in such a way that only root can write to it. | 00:05 |
|---|
| lompfong | shrimants: o/ | 00:05 |

| lstarnes | DiJitalwench: join #freenode and ask for staff to send you a password reset key | 00:05 |
|---|
| abz___ | pipegeek - what would the fstab command be then to mount it for all users? | 00:05 |
|---|
| shrimants | ahmad: it sounds like your /home has become unmounted | 00:05 |
|---|
| pipegeek | abz___: yeah. That's what happened. Hold on | 00:05 |

| shrimants | abz___: do fmask=777,dmask=666 | 00:06 |
|---|
| pipegeek | abz___: in fstab, add ",fmask=111,dmask=000" to the end of the block of text that ends in "gid=25", then unmount and remount | 00:06 |
|---|
| DigitalKiwi | whats wrong with your typing? | 00:06 |
|---|
| iamturnip | SiDi: thanks for the help | 00:06 |
|---|
| mzz | R0b0t1: perhaps check with "apt-cache show packagename"? May not be optimal, I'm a bit new to ubuntu | 00:06 |
|---|
| pipegeek | shrimants: I *think* that's backwards, if those are actually masks | 00:06 |
|---|
| Sharn | lompfong: i s i t b r o k e n ? | 00:06 |

|---|
| loud-loud | SquareHimself> why? | 00:37 |

| pipegeek | MarkJones: yeah, just install flashplayer-nonfree (firefox will do this automatically the first time you need it). Everything else will be handled automatically | 00:37 |

| mrwes | chalcedony, you can copy them over via scp | 00:40 |
|---|
| usser | chalcedony, sftp | 00:40 |

| Smokalotapotamus | My volume is very low. I have checked system>preferences>sound and tried setting it for ALSA and OSS but neither makes a difference. I have checked my volume settings, all are maxed out, I have checked alsamixer in terminal, it shows only master volume, but that is maxed out also. This is occurring in all programs, this is not isolated to a single program. | 00:40 |

| Jordan_U | koshari, tracker | 00:41 |

| mib_j5qmqywc | well it looks exactly the same as ubuntu did when attempting to connect and it is run on gnome but i also dont know what im talking about and there could be internal differences | 00:41 |
|---|
| mzz | Smokalotapotamus: I'd check the "Switches" section in volume control too (and check in its preferences that all switches are actually showing up) | 00:41 |

|---|
| pipegeek | cy21: It's probably part of opencv, which is I believe in the repository | 00:44 |

| lstarnes | joanki123: make sure nothing in /etc/apt/sources.list references gutsy instead of hardy | 00:44 |
|---|
| joanki123 | k | 00:44 |
|---|
| cy21 | pipegeek, i know.. but i have the above problem | 00:44 |
|---|
| sheena1 | erusul: where'd it put the .tar file? it worked, whatever it did | 00:44 |
|---|
| pipegeek | and there's probably a way to download the bare source for it from that page, but you can remove the line numbers in vi | 00:44 |
|---|
| mzz | sheena1: current directory | 00:44 |
|---|
| cy21 | pipegeek, how to remove the line numbers | 00:44 |
|---|
| pipegeek | or with the 'cut' utility | 00:44 |
|---|
| loud-loud | mzz: thx and scunizi i will give it a try thanx a lot | 00:44 |

| cy21 | pipegeek, cut utility? | 00:44 |
|---|
| sheena1 | erusul: there is two files there. I'll need both to un-compress later? | 00:44 |
|---|
| erUSUL | sheena1: Places>home | 00:45 |
|---|
| mzz | Smokalotapotamus: depends heavily on the card. Does the preferences button in volume-control reveal any more switches? | 00:45 |
|---|
| mzz | Smokalotapotamus: (this card has over a dozen switches, but only one of them is checked in preferences by default) | 00:45 |
|---|
| rdawkins | alright thanks guys let me check my drive now | 00:45 |
|---|
| erUSUL | sheena1: wich ones ¿? you only need etc.tgz that0s the compressed file with everything in it | 00:45 |
|---|
| Smokalotapotamus | ok, let me check that, thanks MZZ | 00:45 |
|---|
| sheena1 | erusul: there is also a etc.tar, but that must be from trying to do it from the GUI earlier. Thanks! | 00:46 |
|---|
| mzz | Smokalotapotamus: similarly you may want to enable some more volume control sliders and ramp them up | 00:46 |
|---|
| kane77 | wohoo! after couple of hours strugling I fixed my grub so at least windows boots :) | 00:46 |
|---|
| erUSUL | sheena1: ok | 00:46 |

| mzz | sheena1: might want to run "tar tf /path/to/etc.tgz" to confirm your files are in there | 00:46 |
|---|
| DigitalKiwi | it took a couple of hours? | 00:46 |
|---|
| Advance | AAAAAAAAAAaa | 00:46 |

|---|
| Advance | all my compiz settings GONE! | 00:46 |

| pipegeek | cy21: paste it all into a text file (face.tmp, say), then run: cut -d' ' -f 2- face.tmp > face.c | 00:47 |
|---|
| olivier | mzz still no sounds but when i run test there some action going on put no sounds and every thing is unmuted | 00:47 |

| eraserhead | hi, my wireless network is configured via /etc/network/interfaces . sometimes it disconnects. how do i set it to automatically reconnect ? and why does it disconnect ? | 00:47 |

| cy21 | pipegeek, i have installed the package a few minutes ago.. thanks :D | 00:49 |
|---|
| pipegeek | hehe np | 00:49 |
|---|
| cy21 | thanks | 00:49 |
|---|
| ryanprior | mzz: but I do want to match foo/my.txt | 00:49 |
|---|
| mzz | ryanprior: then some pattern involving "[^/]*" might work (that matches a sequence of characters other than "/") | 00:49 |
|---|
| olivier | mzz like sound bar showing that i got sound but nothing in the speaker | 00:49 |
|---|
| subspider | hi guys i need help | 00:49 |
|---|
| mzz | ryanprior: so perhaps "^foo/[^/]*$" | 00:49 |

| oOarthurOo | So far I have installed the openssh-server on the host machine. Then I created some ssh keys. Then I created keys on the machine I want to log in from. Then I emailed the public key to the host computer, and added it to the authorized keys file. Then I disabled password login, and changed the port to 235. I also changed it so that the only user allowed to login is me. But when trying to login with "ssh -p 235 arthur@192.168.0.199 | 01:03 |

| Looce | oOarthurOo: the .ssh/known_hosts file is on the host you are SSHing from | 01:06 |
|---|
| mzz | oOarthurOo: the first time you ssh to a particular machine it remembers a fingerprint for that machine. The next time you ssh to the same system it checks if the fingerprint changed. | 01:06 |
|---|
| oOarthurOo | Yeah... I'm looking at it now, and there is one key in there. Do I need to add the public key from the host machine to it? | 01:06 |

|---|
| ftehw | I note that jaunty obeys my other app prefernces (e.g. browser, email, etc.) | 01:07 |

| Looce | oOarthurOo: you only need to add the public key you made for your user on the source host, onto your target host in /etc/ssh/authorized_keys | 01:07 |

| oOarthurOo | Looce: That's been done. | 01:08 |
|---|
| mzz | oOarthurOo: this has nothing to do with your user's key, it's erroring out before those keys are even exchanged. | 01:08 |
|---|
| mzz | oOarthurOo: this has to do with the host key, which is normally generated when you install the ssh server. | 01:08 |
|---|
| oOarthurOo | I guess what I'm asking is... how do I setup an authorized host. | 01:08 |
|---|
| oOarthurOo | I want to tell my laptop, this host is cool. Connect to it. | 01:09 |

| mneptok | AMDfanboy: use rsync over ssh to avoid having to re-transfer files | 01:14 |

| AMDfanboy | ahh, i was thinking about rsync for this. that way i could keep what moved over before it screwed up. | 01:15 |
|---|
| mzz | olivier: alsamixer gives you an interactive interface for changing volume. amixer dumps those settings to your screen in a form you can pastebin | 01:15 |
|---|
| koshari | mneptoks suggestion is good, | 01:15 |
|---|

| AK_Dave | DreadKnight: I did the 2.6.30 kernel upgrade, and its nice. Smooth video, smooth effects. Downside? You may find that some other piece of hardware you rely no longer works because the kernel module you've relied on isn't ready for 2.6.30 yet. | 01:55 |

| etfb | Right, I've tried using Skype for video calls, but it's terminally broken. Is there a free/open source alternative? Commercial software is too much trouble. | 01:57 |

| maxxist | AK_Dave someone I was trying to help with an intel 865 driver problem earlier. before i knew there was a problem with the newer driver. | 01:57 |

| nztal | i cannot get sound in flash video working in jaunty despite me following the directions for the non-pulseaudio workaround libflashsupport.so so i'm wondering what else there is i can do. does gnash work on youtube ? | 01:57 |

| AK_Dave | maxxist: I only ask because I don't see a Doom* here. | 01:57 |
|---|
| h8red | what is the best agp 4x video card i can get to use for compiz effects, etc | 01:57 |
|---|
| DreadKnight | AK_Dave: yep, can't wait until linux or distros will be less retarted like this rolling crapware | 01:57 |
|---|
| h8red | my geforce4 is agp 8x and wont fit in the mobo :( | 01:58 |

| jkroll | h8red: i would say a older nvidia gforce series | 01:58 |

| olivier | MZZ : on this http://pastebin.com/f7b028d87 does this tell that my intel is on and the other off | 01:58 |

| blbrown | I have two graphic cards, both nvidia. Nvidia-settings is recognizing both. But it won't let me set the second one as the main display. I tried xorg.conf but there isn't anything in there. How can I changed to GPU-2 | 01:58 |
|---|
| maxxist | AK_Dave haha. yes you are correct he is gone now. i should have looked. | 01:58 |
|---|
| AK_Dave | DreadKnight: Then don't use Linux. Or stick with Hardy. | 01:58 |
|---|
| asmodeus | anyone know why video players like xine or mplayer grind X to a halt when using Nvidia's drivers? | 01:58 |

| DreadKnight | AK_Dave: those have their issues as well... oh well, hope 9.10 will be kick ass | 01:58 |

| AK_Dave | HybridZero: But it does depend on what USB device you need access to. If it can be mounted in the host, it can probably be passed through to the client. USB hard drives, for example. But if you need direct access from the guest to the USB device, you need the PUEL edition from Sun. | 02:16 |

| blbrown | druke that is the driver but not the device | 02:16 |

| psychic | blbrown only thing i can say is that if i was u i might remove the other one i'm still catching my breath after fighting with display drivers for the past 4 days.... | 02:17 |
|---|
| Linuz2009 | my sound card is not recongnized | 02:17 |
|---|
| AK_Dave | HybridZero: You must apt-get remove virtualbox and then install from www.virtualbox.org | 02:17 |
|---|
| Looce | !universe | aa28 | 02:17 |

| ubottu | aa28: The packages in Ubuntu are divided into several sections. More information at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories and http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/components - See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RecommendedSources for the recommended way to set up your repositories | 02:17 |

| Linuz2009 | sound card isn't recongnized | 02:17 |

| AK_Dave | HybridZero: Also, when you install the PUEL make sure you do it from the commandline. Trust me. | 02:18 |
|---|
| scunizi | aa28: are you trying to burn the .img file for the netbook remix? | 02:18 |

| donnyw | so I seem to have semi-melted one of my laptops by trying to upgrade to Jaunty | 02:18 |

| blbrown | Yondering, why is mine so basic. http://paste.ubuntu.com/158935/ | 02:18 |

| Linuz2009 | what can I do? | 02:18 |
|---|
| tfrew | Looce: i want to install fresh to get ext4 | 02:18 |
|---|
| tfrew | but i don't know what things dell has change | 02:18 |
|---|
| Linuz2009 | it isn't physically installed | 02:18 |
|---|
| HybridZero | AK_Dave: Thanks, I'll give it a try :) | 02:18 |
|---|
| tfrew | somone told me the dell ubuntu has special changes | 02:18 |
|---|
| tfrew | i wanted the system to be faster | 02:18 |
|---|
| aa28 | yes | 02:18 |

| AK_Dave | tfrew: Yes, it is compiled for lpia architecture. | 02:18 |

| aa28 | i am | 02:18 |
|---|
| aa28 | :) | 02:18 |
|---|
| Yondering | blbrown, it looks to me like your video server didn't complete installing. First guess. | 02:18 |
|---|
| tfrew | and my friend said to install with ext4 | 02:18 |
|---|
| hipitihop | is there a way to list/script installed packages/application so that I can easily reinstall them on a fresh ubuntu install ? | 02:18 |
|---|
| tfrew | lpia? | 02:18 |
|---|
| scunizi | aa28: you want to put it on a usb stick? | 02:18 |
|---|
| eseven73 | HybridZero, also for me, I had to be in vbox's group for USB | 02:19 |
|---|
| Guest11147 | d | 02:19 |
|---|
| blbrown | Yondering, how could it work then? e.g. I am using it now | 02:19 |
|---|
| aa28 | no to burn it on dvd r | 02:19 |
|---|
| PlasmaSheep | tfrew: there aren't ubuntu optimizations specially for dell machines. | 02:19 |
|---|
| AK_Dave | tfrew: its a specialized i386, but aside from some kernel optimizations not much is different from i386 and you can install i386 debs. | 02:19 |
|---|
| donnyw | is it possible to try and get my machine to upgrade again? | 02:19 |
|---|
| Looce | tfrew: there will not be any significant improvement with ext4, from ext3. Also, I would think Dell's modifications are extra driver packages. | 02:19 |
|---|
| Linuz2009 | how do I know if my sound card is supported | 02:19 |
|---|
| AK_Dave | PlasmaSheep: Yes, there is. For the Atom architecture. :) | 02:19 |
|---|
| AK_Dave | PlasmaSheep: Also a special Ubuntu for HP netbooks. :) | 02:19 |
|---|
| tfrew | is there dell driver's or somthing for 9.04 | 02:19 |
|---|
| PlasmaSheep | AK_Dave: the atom architecture is not used exclusively in dell machines. | 02:19 |
|---|
| PlasmaSheep | AK_Dave: HP is not dell. | 02:19 |
|---|
| mysphyt | Hey, folks. This is exhausting: I'm trying to configure LIRC, and something's being done for me somewhere by 9.04--essentially, even without LIRC running, I get some remote input. Since I don't know where it's coming from, I can't configure it. :/ | 02:20 |
|---|
| PlasmaSheep | AK_Dave: And could you please show me the special hp ubuntu? | 02:20 |

| ubottu | hipitihop: To replicate your packages selection on another machine (or restore it if re-installing), you can type « aptitude --display-format '%p' search '?installed!?automatic' > ~/my-packages », move the file "my-packages" to the other machine, and there type « sudo xargs aptitude --schedule-only install < my-packages ; sudo aptitude install » - See also !automate | 02:20 |

|---|
| scunizi | aa28: I'm not sure if this will do it or not.. I'm in the process of using it to put the image on a usb stick .. it *might* also allow you to burn it to a cd / dvd.. the image is less than 1 gig. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromImgFiles | 02:20 |

| aa28 | it can't find it anywhere in ubuntu 8.04 lts | 02:20 |
|---|
| aa28 | img2iso | 02:21 |

| hipitihop | Jordan_U: cool, thanks | 02:21 |
|---|
| AK_Dave | PlasmaSheep: For the iso, see thepiratebay as I don't know anywhere else to download the Hardy lpia iso for either Dell or HP other than there. Unless buried deep in the support pages from Dell or HP. | 02:21 |

| danbhfive | AK_Dave: http://torrent.ubuntu.com:6969 its in the /topic ... | 02:23 |
|---|
| PlasmaSheep | AK_Dave: I don't doubt that there's an atom ISO. But Atom is not unique to dell. And when you say that there are ubuntu versions for dell and hp, it's important to note that they are unofficial. | 02:23 |
|---|
| hipitihop | Jordan_U: related question, what if any of the packages depend on special or third party repository, is that automatically taken care of too ? | 02:23 |
|---|
| PlasmaSheep | X throws errors for me. Please help. http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/158837/ | 02:23 |

| AK_Dave | PlasmaSheep: Unofficial? No, they're quite official. | 02:23 |
|---|
| Jordan_U | hipitihop, No | 02:23 |
|---|
| Looce | "Not sanctioned by Canonical" might be better than "unofficial" | 02:24 |
|---|
| PlasmaSheep | AK_Dave: They aren't official by canonical, if dell and hp make them. | 02:24 |
|---|
| hipitihop | Jordan_U: so I guess take a copy of source.list too | 02:24 |
|---|
| AK_Dave | PlasmaSheep: I don't know what fine semantic hair you're splitting to say "unofficial" unless that means "can't download direct from ubuntu.com" | 02:24 |
|---|
| Jordan_U | hipitihop, Yes | 02:24 |
|---|
| AK_Dave | PlasmaSheep: They're supported Hardy LTS releases. | 02:24 |
|---|
| Linuz2009 | anybody | 02:24 |
|---|
| Yondering | blbrown, I'm not exactly sure, I'm afraid. | 02:24 |
|---|
| PlasmaSheep | AK_Dave: Are they endorsed by canonical? Are they linked to from ubuntu.com? | 02:24 |
|---|
| AK_Dave | PlasmaSheep: Do I care? Does it matter? No, and no. | 02:25 |
|---|
| MK13 | unofficial usually means completely community supported, like the ps3 version of ubuntu | 02:25 |
|---|
| PlasmaSheep | AK_Dave: Ah, if the answers to my questions are no, then they are not official. | 02:25 |

| Jordan_U | hipitihop, You can't restore your package list with a different version of Ubuntu, and if your goal in getting a fresh install is to get rid of old cruft packages / config files then you may want to just copy over your data, if you want your settings and packages as similar as possible then just upgrade. Again, what you want to do depends on what you are trying to accomplish. | 02:31 |

| PlasmaSheep | scunizi: The last time I had this problem was that there was something weird in xorg.conf. However, this is a fresh install, so I doubt that's the problem (nevertheless, here's xorg.conf http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/158944/ ) | 02:31 |

| ubottu | plato-bu: Attempting to downgrade to an older Ubuntu version is explicitly not supported, and may break your system. | 02:32 |

|---|
| meoblast001 | scunizi: why... can't it just download the jaunty debs? | 02:42 |
|---|
| Looce | meoblast001: you'll be able to upgrade to Jaunty immediately within the upgrade. also, read the release notes for BOTH Intrepid and Jaunty before upgrading | 02:42 |

| Jordan_U | meoblast001, Look into transitional packages and such issues | 02:43 |
|---|
| PlasmaSheep | scunizi: Rebooting into recovery mode. | 02:43 |
|---|
| Looce | frankS2: 1. Linux is not Windows 2. AD may use the LDAP protocol | 02:44 |

| kholerabb1 | how can I bind additional shortcuts that aren't available under "Keyboard Shortcuts".. such as opening the pictures folder? | 02:45 |

| Looce | plato-bu, sure, you could edit your Apt sources.list to include Intrepid and install the driver from there, but be very careful, and disable the Intrepid repository right after so you don't install any other packages | 02:46 |
|---|
| ax57 | mib_q3039e3x; yeah well i dont think they will find a away around it, they have never used linux and i dont think they want to find a site like that, i just dont want them to accidently click on the wrong thing | 02:46 |

| crdlb | ltgg: the only driver available is the radeon driver, which is enough for compiz | 02:47 |

|---|
| crdlb | ltgg: what does 'glxinfo | grep renderer' say? | 02:48 |
|---|
| AK_Dave | eseven73: Then the reason it doesn't work is obvious. The dongle doesn't have any nonvolatile memory because it was built so cheap, so you have to load its firmware to it every time you apply power or plug it in. | 02:48 |

| unop | billybigrigger, you can set deluge to be the default application in firefox's applications tho. | 02:48 |

| AK_Dave | eseven73: Why work in Vista? Because you installed a little app in Vista that loads the firmware to it so it can work. | 02:48 |

|---|
| billybigrigger | Smerky, i ended up just going and picking /usr/bin/deluge from firefox, but i just found it odd how ubuntu does recognize deluge is installed and give me the option, a new user wouldnt have the smarts to look in /usr/bin for deluge | 02:54 |
|---|
| maximumbob | I know how to load my .Xmodmap with 'xmodmap ~/.Xmodmap' but Intrepid loaded it automagically the first time... how can I make Jaunty do the same? | 02:54 |
|---|
| ax57 | yeah, but its slower off the ubuntu site | 02:54 |
|---|
| trgbeck | nope toshiba satellite A205 | 02:54 |
|---|
| PlasmaSheep | ax57: I myself downloaded ubuntu from a torrent. | 02:54 |
|---|
| LjL | !offtopic | 02:55 |

| ubottu | #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics. Thanks! | 02:55 |
|---|
| ax57 | plus uses ubuntus bandwidth | 02:55 |
|---|
| Amer28 | what's netmix-remix anyway new system for laptops? | 02:55 |
|---|
| AK_Dave | eseven73: It would be a LOT of work to make the dongle work. But presumably, once you get the firmware into it then bluez should use it. | 02:55 |
|---|
| Looce | I downloaded Jaunty Beta from a torrent as well, but redownloaded the Release and got a CD from shipit | 02:55 |
|---|
| trgbeck | i order from ubuntu site | 02:55 |
|---|
| billybigrigger | Smerky, im not saying i don't know how to do it, just ubuntu makes it hard for a new user, which is not cool as deluge is far superior to transmission in my books | 02:55 |
|---|
| crdlb | ltgg: anyway, make sure that xserver-xorg-video-ati is installed; if it is, put your /var/log/Xorg.0.log on a pastebin | 02:55 |
|---|
| PlasmaSheep | Amer28: It's optimized for weaker hardware. | 02:55 |
|---|
| ltgg | crdlb: http://paste.ubuntu.com/158963/ | 02:55 |
|---|
| daftykins | maximumbob, did you not install with the proper modmap? | 02:55 |
|---|
| danbhfive | Amer28: its for netbooks. basically laptops with very small screens | 02:55 |
|---|
| Linuz2009 | someone I need help | 02:55 |
|---|
| Advance | Since the distro update I can no longer use the viewport switcher on compiz, I don't even know where to start and I know it's not a compiz error.. any help? | 02:55 |
|---|
| Smerky | billybigrigger: Go try to do the same thing in openBSD and tell me what you think. | 02:55 |
|---|
| Looce | !any | Linuz2009 | 02:55 |
|---|
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about any | 02:55 |
|---|
| Looce | !ask | Linuz2009 | 02:56 |
|---|
| ubottu | Linuz2009: 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. :-) | 02:56 |
|---|
| mib_q3039e3x | what's ur problem? | 02:56 |
|---|
| Looce | sorry. :P | 02:56 |
|---|
| kholerabb1 | sorry if someone already replied to this: how can I bind shortcuts that are not in Keybaord Shortuts? | 02:56 |
|---|
| PlasmaSheep | Looce beat me to it. :O | 02:56 |
|---|
| Linuz2009 | my sound card isn't recongnized | 02:56 |
|---|
| Linuz2009 | by my hardware | 02:56 |
|---|
| jdu | felixsulla, I don't have any experience with the really new non-t series like SL, but the more modern thinkpads seem to work very well. However, the really old ones don't work that well. | 02:56 |
|---|
| Amer28 | what's unetbootin anyway | 02:56 |
|---|
| AK_Dave | Amer28: netbook-remix is i386 with a desktop environment designed for smaller screens. Used to be, pre-Jaunty, UNR was designed for Atom and weaker CPUs. But today, Jaunty UNR is standard i386. | 02:56 |
|---|
| PlasmaSheep | Linuz2009: what sound card? | 02:56 |
|---|
| maximumbob | daftykins: "Proper" modmap? My .Xmodmap just remaps the internet 'forward','back' keys to page up and page down... | 02:56 |
|---|
| billybigrigger | Smerky, last time i checked ubuntu wasn't bsd | 02:56 |
|---|
| Linuz2009 | a built in sound card intel8x0 | 02:56 |
|---|
| PlasmaSheep | !netbookremix | Amer28 | 02:56 |
|---|
| ltgg | crdlb: how do I know if xserver-xorg-video-ati is installed? | 02:56 |
|---|
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about netbookremix | 02:56 |
|---|
| AK_Dave | Amer28: What netbook do you want this on? | 02:56 |
|---|
| Looce | kholerabb1: you can click on Add to map a 'name' to a custom command to start whatever you want | 02:56 |
|---|
| PlasmaSheep | !netbook | Amer28 | 02:56 |
|---|
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about netbook | 02:56 |
|---|
| maximumbob | daftykins: When I first made it, Intrepid saw it on login and asked if I wanted to import. I said yes and never had to again. Jaunty did that, but forgets on every login and I have to do it in terminal. | 02:56 |
|---|
| PlasmaSheep | interesting | 02:57 |
|---|
| Amer28 | sony laptop | 02:57 |
|---|
| MK13 | !NBR | 02:57 |
|---|
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about NBR | 02:57 |
|---|
| mib_q3039e3x | maybe you can download the sound driver | 02:57 |
|---|
| crdlb | ltgg: you can check in synaptic, or with 'apt-cache policy xserver-xorg-video-ati' if you'd prefer | 02:57 |
|---|
| AK_Dave | Amer28: Sony makes a lot of laptops. What size is the screen? | 02:57 |
|---|
| daftykins | ok nevermind maximumbob i have no idea what you mean. | 02:57 |
|---|
| Amer28 | 17'' screen | 02:57 |
|---|
| mib_q3039e3x | amer28 that's a big screen | 02:57 |
|---|
| AK_Dave | Amer28: UNR is designed for 9-10" screens. | 02:57 |
|---|
| maximumbob | daftykins: It's for remapping keys | 02:57 |
|---|
| Smerky | billybigrigger: I am just saying not to complain. I'd rather ubuntu not to be too easy. It makes it challenging that way and you end up learning from what you stumble across to fix you problem. | 02:57 |
|---|
| Linuz2009 | typed in lspci -v | less and it doesn't list audio device | 02:57 |
|---|
| PlasmaSheep | !UNR | 02:57 |
|---|
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about UNR | 02:57 |
|---|
| Advance | Since the distro update I can no longer use the viewport switcher on compiz, I don't even know where to start and I know it's not a compiz error.. any help? | 02:57 |
|---|
| Amer28 | oo so should i install regular ubuntu then? | 02:57 |
|---|
| daftykins | maximumbob, actually you can just add it to your ~/.bashrc so it runs on every login | 02:58 |
|---|
| PlasmaSheep | Amer28: yes | 02:58 |
|---|
| jdu | maximumbob, you might also do somewhat of a hack by adding xmodmap commands to some other script like .xsession | 02:58 |
|---|
| billybigrigger | Smerky, turns off alot of new users though | 02:58 |
|---|
| Linuz2009 | don't know what to do/ | 02:58 |
|---|
| mib_q3039e3x | amer28 yes, install the ubuntu 9.04 | 02:58 |
|---|
| Smerky | billybigrigger: THen they should go use macs | 02:58 |
|---|
| AK_Dave | Amer28: I suggest just installing regular Jaunty i386, and then if you still want UNR on it then apt-get install ubuntu-netbook-remix onto it. | 02:58 |
|---|
| billybigrigger | Smerky, i agree with you about not making things too easy, but somethings should just be there you know what i mean? | 02:58 |
|---|
| Smerky | :P | 02:58 |
|---|
| Linuz2009 | need help with my sound card not being recongnized | 02:58 |
|---|
| Amer28 | should i install 9.04 or 8.04 | 02:58 |
|---|
| kholerabb1 | looc: :D missed that thanks you | 02:58 |
|---|
| maximumbob | daftykins, jdu: I could... but it just bugs me that it used to do it automagically and I would have to go all hacky now. | 02:58 |
|---|
| mikeshollen | I think I only have like a 60 or an 80 gb hard drive in my laptop, but my disk usage analyzer is telling me it's a lot bigger, why? | 02:58 |
|---|
| mib_q3039e3x | 9.04 | 02:58 |
|---|
| ax57 | Amer28: make sure your ubuntu has all the new updates as well | 02:58 |
|---|
| Linuz2009 | running jaunty | 02:58 |
|---|
| thiebaude | Amer28: if it was me i would say 9.04 | 02:58 |
|---|
| Linuz2009 | any help would be useful | 02:59 |
|---|
| Amer28 | ok | 02:59 |
|---|
| Linuz2009 | hello? | 02:59 |
|---|
| Smerky | billybigrigger: Yes yes, it is true. We should prabably stop this since it's off topic now. :P | 02:59 |
|---|
| PlasmaSheep | Opengl is slow for me. Please help. | 02:59 |
|---|
| Amer28 | thanks guys | 02:59 |
|---|
| billybigrigger | Smerky, hehe telling users to buy a mac is not a good way for ubuntu and linux in general to gain market share :P | 02:59 |
|---|
| billybigrigger | Smerky, agreed | 02:59 |
|---|
| ax57 | Linux > Mac | 02:59 |
|---|
| AK_Dave | billybigrigger: But sometimes its the right answer. :) | 02:59 |
|---|
| thiebaude | billybigrigger: i agree | 02:59 |
|---|
| asd | asd | 02:59 |
|---|
| musikgoat|main | mikeshollen: because its looking at all the mounted devices | 02:59 |
|---|
| daftykins | with Linux you should get used to things not being all handed to you maximumbob ;) | 02:59 |
|---|
| Linuz2009 | I want to know how to fix this problem | 02:59 |
|---|
| Linuz2009 | any body help/ | 02:59 |
|---|
| Linuz2009 | anybody? | 02:59 |
|---|
| billybigrigger | AK_Dave, haha point taken | 03:00 |
|---|
| CodyT07 | hello guys, quick question, what is the image called u see on shutdown and start up? | 03:00 |
|---|
| Smerky | billybigrigger: Nope. But they are easy, aren't they? Well that's what they say. Also over priced hardware. :P | 03:00 |
|---|
| Linuz2009 | need help with my sound. | 03:00 |
|---|
| daftykins | pastebin your "lspci" output so somebody knows what your wireless card is Linuz2009 | 03:00 |
|---|
| egosintrick | Linuz2009 what | 03:00 |
|---|
| jdu | CodyT07, splash screen | 03:00 |
|---|
| billybigrigger | Smerky, couldn't tell ya, i've never touched a mac | 03:00 |
|---|
| ax57 | Linuz2009: make sure your ubuntu is updated | 03:00 |
|---|
| daftykins | s/wireless/sound/ | 03:00 |

| Linuz2009 | yes it is. | 03:00 |

| maximumbob | daftykins: I've done Gentoo installs - I know. And I'm fine with it. But when you upgrade software and _lose_ some functionality... that's when I get an eye twitch. :p | 03:00 |
|---|
| H_M-Ubuntu | Linux > UNIX > NT.. Heh | 03:00 |
|---|
| H_M-Ubuntu | Just adding my two cents. | 03:00 |
|---|
| CodyT07 | many thanks | 03:00 |
|---|
| AK_Dave | maximumbob: Did you read the release notes before upgrading? | 03:00 |
|---|
| daftykins | be interesting to see how a proper fresh install works maximumbob | 03:00 |
|---|
| ax57 | Linuz2009: is it a nvidia sound card? you can get the newest drivers from there site, instead of useing ubuntus drivers | 03:01 |
|---|
| maximumbob | daftykins: might do it sometime this summer | 03:01 |
|---|
| Linuz2009 | no its an intel 8x0 sound card | 03:01 |
|---|
| maximumbob | AK_Dave: Not everything | 03:01 |
|---|

| ltgg | crdlb: get this: -bash: /var/log/Xorg.0.log: Permission denied | 03:01 |
|---|
| CuriosTiger | Does ubuntu have something like rpm-based distro's "yum groupinstall"? E.g. some easy way to get all the xfce packages? | 03:01 |
|---|
| jdu | CuriosTiger, apt-get | 03:02 |
|---|
| PlasmaSheep | Opengl is slow for me. Please help. | 03:02 |
|---|
| crdlb | ltgg: it's not a command, it's just a file, which you can open in a text editor | 03:02 |
|---|
| egosintrick | System > Preferences > Sound make sure your card is default | 03:02 |

| Linuz2009 | how do I paste bin my info? | 03:02 |
|---|
| Looce | CuriosTiger: tasksel | 03:02 |
|---|
| jdu | CuriosTiger, apt-get install xubuntu-desktop | 03:02 |
|---|
| eseven73 | CuriosTiger, sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop I believe | 03:02 |
|---|
| Looce | !pb | Linuz2009 | 03:02 |
|---|
| ubottu | Linuz2009: 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) | 03:02 |
|---|
| Linuz2009 | I got my computer info | 03:02 |
|---|
| plato-bu | CuriosTiger: install xubuntu-desktop | 03:02 |

| tictac232434 | Hey, Does anyone know how to fix the issue with Vmware where it won't load but it appears on the taskbar then dissappears? | 03:02 |
|---|
| vigo | CuriosTiger: Look at alien | 03:02 |
|---|
| AK_Dave | maximumbob: I wonder if your problem has something to do with the new version of X in Jaunty. | 03:02 |
|---|
| PlasmaSheep | Looce: on a roll today :p | 03:02 |
|---|
| CuriosTiger | jdu: Thanks. And is there a way to see the list of available groups? | 03:02 |
|---|
| Looce | PlasmaSheep: yeah :p | 03:02 |
|---|
| unkmar | how do I determine which version of ubuntu I am running? | 03:02 |
|---|
| daftykins | CuriosTiger, "sudo apt-get install xfce4" | 03:02 |
|---|
| tritium | unkmar: lsb_release -a | 03:02 |
|---|
| crdlb | ltgg: also, you can install 'pastebinit' and run 'pastebinit /var/log/Xorg.0.log' which will do it for you | 03:02 |
|---|
| Looce | PlasmaSheep: I must admit I've read some of the "ubottu tidbit list" | 03:02 |
|---|
| PlasmaSheep | Looce: and type fast :P | 03:03 |
|---|
| Looce | ~70 WPM, but that's a bit off-topic now :) | 03:03 |
|---|
| maximumbob | AK_Dave: I don't think so. The same dialog appeared that showed me "available xmodmap files" and two panes, where I could "activate" an available one and it would go to the "activated" pile... It just doesn't seem to stick. But it doesn't seem like... well... maybe. Meh. | 03:03 |
|---|
| PlasmaSheep | HEH | 03:03 |
|---|
| PlasmaSheep | *heh | 03:03 |
|---|
| maximumbob | I'll just add an entry to "Sessions" for now | 03:03 |
|---|
| PlasmaSheep | Opengl is slow for me. Please help. | 03:03 |
|---|
| CodyT07 | anyone else notice the resolution seems higher then normal on gnome 9.04 ubuntu? im at 1440 by 900 but it seems higher | 03:03 |
|---|
| CuriosTiger | ak_dave: Vmware wasn't very happy with Jaunty | 03:03 |
|---|
| DIL | in 8.10 should there be a connect to server under places | 03:03 |
|---|
| jdu | CuriosTiger, It is not so much a group as xubuntu-desktop depends on all the other packages. Common ones are xubuntu-desktop ubuntu-desktop kubuntu-desktop etc. I don't know about a list, google... | 03:03 |
|---|
| tictac232434 | Curios | 03:04 |
|---|
| tritium | DIL: yes | 03:04 |
|---|
| CuriosTiger | of course, there will probably be a vmware-tools update to fix that, but we'll probably have to wait six months for it :P | 03:04 |
|---|
| AK_Dave | CuriosTiger: I don't know anything about VMware. | 03:04 |
|---|
| tictac232434 | Does Vmware work with other versions? | 03:04 |
|---|
| PlasmaSheep | CodyT07: It's impossible for it to actually BE higher, so it's just you/ | 03:04 |
|---|
| daftykins | which VMware did you try and install CuriosTiger | 03:04 |
|---|
| CuriosTiger | tictac: Yes. 8.10 is fine now. | 03:04 |
|---|
| vigo | DIL: Yes, it is there by default. | 03:04 |
|---|
| maximumbob | Ah "Sessions" has become "Startup Applications" | 03:04 |
|---|
| tictac232434 | ty | 03:04 |
|---|
| CodyT07 | nvidia driver reports 1440 by 900 and KDE shows normal. Though the splash screen is super small now | 03:04 |
|---|
| tictac232434 | I will reinstall then | 03:04 |
|---|
| tictac232434 | lol | 03:04 |

|---|
| kinection | hello, i have a radeon hd4850, and i installed the fglrx drivers, right after installing and restarting, i have a problem in that my monitor (which is unfortunatley a LCD that only has vga) cannot display what the card is outputting, is there anything i can do to fix it? | 03:04 |
|---|
| DIL | it is NOT on mine | 03:04 |
|---|
| PlasmaSheep | Opengl is slow for me. Please help. | 03:04 |
|---|
| tritium | !repeat | PlasmaSheep | 03:05 |
|---|
| ubottu | PlasmaSheep: 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 | 03:05 |
|---|
| akincer | My performance of FPS games (Urban Terror in particular) in 9.04 is abysmal. They are sluggish and it feels like I'm playing over a dial-up connection yet my ping is low. Anyone else see this? | 03:05 |
|---|
| PlasmaSheep | oops, didn't notice how fast I repeated. | 03:05 |
|---|
| mib_q3039e3x | kinection, you can switch the screen resolution | 03:05 |
|---|
| AK_Dave | kinection: You probably need to roll back out of the fglrx, but you may be able to tweak your monitor mode in xorg.conf. Until you can figure out the latter, the former would be accomplished with 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg' | 03:05 |
|---|
| CuriosTiger | yes | 03:05 |
|---|
| daftykins | kinection, you can force 'vesa' mode in your xorg.conf to regain a working desktop | 03:06 |
|---|
| tritium | Looce: what's the story with MsFrizzle? | 03:06 |
|---|
| akincer | kinection: I'm seeing similar issues. The Display app works sometimes and sometimes not. HD4870 here | 03:06 |
|---|
| tritium | MsFrizzle: test | 03:06 |
|---|
| Linuz2009 | OKAY. here's the URL, http://paste.ubuntu.com/158971/ | 03:06 |
|---|
| Looce | tritium: It would be rather off-topic... | 03:06 |
|---|
| daftykins | what graphics akincer | 03:06 |
|---|
| tritium | Looce: bot? | 03:06 |
|---|
| DIL | vigo, et al OK so if it is not there how can i place connect to server back under places | 03:06 |
|---|
| Looce | also it has no triggers at all | 03:06 |
|---|
| kinection | yea, i understand that i can force vesa, i was just wondering about any problems with the hd4850 and the fglrx drivers, but i may just roll back... | 03:06 |
|---|
| Linuz2009 | please review the infomation | 03:06 |

| Looce | yes, tritium, I'm testing an IRC handler I wrote | 03:07 |
|---|
| tritium | Looce: please, no unofficial bots here | 03:07 |
|---|
| akincer | the open source ATI driver works great and the Display app even detects my monitor type. The closed source one -- not som uch | 03:07 |
|---|
| tritium | Thank you, Looce. | 03:07 |
|---|
| ltgg | there are also a number of previous versions of this log | 03:07 |
|---|
| Looce | I'll remove the connection definition in my bot, sorry | 03:07 |
|---|
| kinection | does the open source one support 3d? | 03:07 |
|---|
| tritium | Looce: no problem | 03:08 |
|---|
| crdlb | ltgg: you have the nvidia driver installed :) | 03:08 |
|---|
| akincer | unfortunately, the open source driver and 3D performance in games don't play well together with the HD4870 | 03:08 |
|---|
| Linuz2009 | hello? did someone read the paste bin I posted | 03:08 |
|---|
| Linuz2009 | its http://paste.ubuntu.com/158971/ | 03:08 |
|---|
| Linuz2009 | I had a sound problem | 03:08 |
|---|
| tictac232434 | Is there a Ubuntu Jaunty channel? | 03:08 |
|---|
| akincer | kinection: My experience is the open source ATI driver and the HD series of ATI cards don't work well | 03:08 |
|---|
| vigo | DIL: Looking up the 'fix' now, | 03:08 |
|---|
| Linuz2009 | sound not recognized | 03:08 |

| akincer | for games that is | 03:08 |

| hp2210b | dewdude: thanks, i took a guess and I am already using that. :) | 03:09 |
|---|
| Linuz2009 | good | 03:09 |

| CuriosTiger | tictac: Traditionally, updates to vmare-tools take a few months after a new Ubuntu release. They're a bit slow. | 03:09 |

|---|
| akincer | I'm going to have to downgrade back to 8.10 since 9.04 seems to be a total disaster for me | 03:10 |
|---|
| dewdude | Linuz2009, i'm reading it now | 03:10 |
|---|
| AK_Dave | tictac232434: Virtualbox works well and you can convert a vmware image to a vdi easily. Probably doesn't help you though. | 03:10 |
|---|
| jander99 | Hello. I have a support issue with a Dell 1720 laptop and Jaunty. | 03:10 |
|---|
| CuriosTiger | I generally end up compromising and running an LTS release in my virtual machines for that reason | 03:10 |
|---|
| dewdude | but you ever consider that maybe your sound hardware isn't supported? | 03:10 |
|---|
| hp2210b | how do you view a list of who is on the channel with this? | 03:10 |
|---|
| DIL | vigo, i see that someone reported as a bug in Feb 2008 | 03:10 |
|---|
| tictac232434 | Is Virtual box similar? | 03:10 |
|---|
| AK_Dave | akincer: ubuntuforums has some help for your card, I believe. | 03:10 |
|---|
| hp2210b | vbox rocks | 03:10 |
|---|
| tictac232434 | Does VB had the same Capabilities? | 03:10 |
|---|
| dewdude | Ctrl-F7 | 03:10 |
|---|
| jander99 | Who's having the vmware problem? I use vmware alot on Jaunty. | 03:10 |
|---|
| CuriosTiger | VirtualBox did not work well for me, but your mileage may vary | 03:10 |
|---|
| dewdude | that opens the User Menu | 03:10 |
|---|
| tictac232434 | I am | 03:10 |
|---|
| akincer | hmmm, I'll have to check, but I fear my issues aren't singular to my graphics card | 03:10 |
|---|
| hp2210b | wait.. i am talking sun's vmBox | 03:10 |
|---|
| thiebaude | Linuz2009: im not sure, but it dont seem right | 03:10 |
|---|
| CuriosTiger | it's free, so it doesn't cost anything to try it out and see if it works for you | 03:10 |
|---|
| daftykins | jander99, i'm thinking of installing workstation soon and CuriosTiger had problems | 03:10 |
|---|
| crdlb | hp2210b: you're not using xchat, you're using xchat-gnome | 03:10 |
|---|
| Linuz2009 | yes it doesn't | 03:11 |
|---|
| tictac232434 | dewdude I am having the problem | 03:11 |
|---|
| tictac232434 | with Vmware | 03:11 |
|---|
| dewdude | tictac232434, what? | 03:11 |
|---|
| musikgoat|main | whats a suggested gtk video/audio transcoder? | 03:11 |
|---|
| hp2210b | oh.. | 03:11 |
|---|
| * DrAnthraX is away: morpheus calling | 03:11 |
| MK13 | what 5s the best way to program for windows (C++, mainly console) on linux? | 03:11 |
|---|
| crdlb | hp2210b: which is xchat with a different user interface (you can see the users list only by clicking on the "N Users" button) | 03:11 |
|---|
| tictac232434 | You said you can get Vmware to work on Jaunty? | 03:11 |
|---|
| AK_Dave | akincer: Some people are rolling back to the Intrepid drivers and having luck. Some people are rolling up to 2.6.30 kernel from Karmic and using the xserver for that kernel. | 03:11 |
|---|
| eseven73 | !away > DrAnthraX | 03:11 |
|---|
| ubottu | DrAnthraX, please see my private message | 03:11 |
|---|
| dewdude | nope. | 03:11 |
|---|
| dewdude | i never said that | 03:11 |
|---|
| Looce | musikgoat|main: I don't know about GTK, but I use ffmpeg myself | 03:11 |
|---|
| vigo | DIL: Yes, I found a Gnome repair, are you using Gnome? | 03:11 |
|---|
| ltgg | crdlb: result: Package nvidia-glx-173 is not installed, so not removed | 03:11 |
|---|
| jander99 | daftykins, I dist-upgraded from intrepid but have had no issues with vmware 6.5.0. vmware tools for windows installs just fine. I do have some audio issues but its related to pulseaudio and flash not giving up control of the sound card, so /dev/dsp can't be attached to the vm. | 03:12 |
|---|
| tictac232434 | Jander | 03:12 |
|---|
| tictac232434 | I am sorry it was jander | 03:12 |

|---|
| DIL | vigo, yes | 03:12 |
|---|
| akincer | I don't know how to roll back drivers. I'll have to google | 03:12 |
|---|
| tictac232434 | that said he knows how to use Vmware on Jaunty | 03:12 |
|---|
| jander99 | tictac232434, I upgraded, not fresh installed | 03:12 |
|---|
| tictac232434 | oic | 03:12 |
|---|
| daftykins | interesting jander99 , i may install in a little while. | 03:12 |
|---|
| tictac232434 | Thats it? | 03:12 |
|---|
| crdlb | ltgg: argh, any idea how you installed the nvidia driver? | 03:12 |
|---|
| vigo | DIL: Looks like re-install or upgrade of Gnome replaces it,,,, | 03:12 |
|---|
| toed | hi, i have ubuntu 8.04 but i can't figure out how to upgrade to 9.04 -- there's no thing in the update manager | 03:12 |
|---|
| eseven73 | you cant skip | 03:12 |
|---|
| jander99 | I need to install it on my laptop, lemme do that right now, and I'll let you know what I find. | 03:12 |
|---|
| tictac232434 | kk, ty | 03:12 |
|---|
| toed | eseven73: how do i upgrade to the middle one then | 03:13 |
|---|
| eseven73 | you can only skip LTS to LTS I belive | 03:13 |
|---|
| toed | so what do i do? | 03:13 |
|---|
| crdlb | toed: you'd need to to to System > Admin > Software Properties and tell it that you're ok with non-LTS releases first | 03:13 |
|---|
| crdlb | then the update manager will offer it | 03:13 |
|---|
| eseven73 | !upgrade > toed | 03:13 |
|---|
| ubottu | toed, please see my private message | 03:13 |
|---|
| AK_Dave | toed: your update-manager may have the LTS-only box checked. | 03:13 |

|---|
| ltgg | crdlb: worked fine under 8.10; after upgrade openGL very slow or not working: tried EnvyNG to repair ... got errors | 03:14 |
|---|
| akincer | would using the catalyst driver on ubuntu be better? | 03:14 |
|---|
| DIL | vigo, appreciate it | 03:14 |
|---|
| toed | that was a lot less painful than expected, thanks everyone | 03:14 |

| psychic | does swap store stuff like a cahce?????? | 03:15 |
|---|
| crdlb | ltgg: I guess you could just sudo apt-get --reinstall install xserver-xorg-core libgl1-mesa-glx | 03:15 |
|---|
| crdlb | ltgg: that should overwite the nvidia installer's changes | 03:15 |

| hp2210c | upgraded to 9.04 the other day, desktop effects can not be enabled now, any suggestions? | 03:15 |
|---|

|---|
| crdlb | hemanth: that is by design | 03:16 |
|---|
| dewdude | hp2210c: intel controller? | 03:16 |
|---|
| hemanth | hp2210c: lspci | grep VGA , paste the o/p | 03:16 |
|---|
| Looce | psychic: swap holds allocated memory that has not been used by its owning program for a while, so it's not really a cache | 03:16 |
|---|
| hp2210c | dewdude: yes, it is | 03:16 |
|---|
| hemanth | crdlb: an hack to get right click ? | 03:16 |
|---|
| psychic | can i empty it?? | 03:17 |
|---|
| psychic | looce | 03:17 |
|---|
| dewdude | hp2210c, apparently the drivers are borked | 03:17 |
|---|

|---|
| Guest46828 | 有中文的吗 | 03:18 |
|---|
| Major | ok | 03:18 |
|---|
| hemanth | hp2210c: I think it is a "conflict situation", because I just run `gconftool-2 --set --type=bool /apps/metacity/general/compositing_manager false` and `compiz --replace` worked! | 03:19 |
|---|
| psychic | looce i type that hold thing "on and off" in all in the same session? | 03:19 |

| freemind | hey guest, is this chinese? | 03:19 |
|---|
| daning | Guest46828: go to #ubuntu-cn | 03:19 |
|---|
| jander99 | tictac, looks as though vmware installer did not build the kernel modules for the app. | 03:19 |
|---|
| Guest46828 | 你们都是哪的 | 03:19 |
|---|
| Looce | psychic: uh, in the same line in your terminal yes | 03:19 |
|---|
| jdu | psychic, you adjust /proc/sys/vm/swappiness to adjust the priority of swapping. | 03:19 |
|---|
| hp2210c | hemanth, i am going to paste that in a shell and hope for the best | 03:19 |
|---|
| manpoole | is fvwm crystal faster than lxde? | 03:19 |
|---|
| crdlb | ltgg: the only thing you need to do is reinstall those packages with apt-get and restart X | 03:19 |
|---|
| eseven73 | Guest46828, type /join #ubuntu-cn | 03:19 |
|---|
| jdu | psychic, it is probably a better option than disabling swap, which you want to have. | 03:19 |
|---|
| dewdude | ok, side issue someone might know... i replaced Firefox with SeaMonkey....now when i right click in a URL in XChat, the Open URL doesn't open....any way to change that so it does? | 03:20 |

|---|
| akincer | gabriel: Seems to be a crapshoot | 03:22 |
|---|
| zetheroo1 | gabriel_: I defintely think so | 03:22 |
|---|
| pcfreak30 | so does anyone have a clue on why xmacro is being mean to me... | 03:22 |
|---|
| akincer | I'm leaning to no | 03:22 |
|---|
| zetheroo1 | gabriel_: I find it a better release than Intrepid | 03:23 |
|---|
| jdu | gabriel_, might depend on how customized your 8.10 is. | 03:23 |
|---|
| zetheroo1 | akincer: any particular reasons why not? | 03:23 |
|---|
| ltgg | crdlb: if I do: sudo apt-get --reinstall install xserver-xorg-core libgl1-mesa-glx .... could I lose my graphics altogether ? | 03:23 |

| crdlb | ltgg: or put another way: I've given that command hundreds of times, and that's never happened :) | 03:24 |

| losher | gabriel_: 9.04 is noticeably less stable that 8.10. Unless there's something specific you need from 9.04, I would wait a couple of releases.... | 03:24 |

| drfreema | is fglrx going to be available for 904 soon? | 03:24 |
|---|
| akincer | zetheroo1: Because things are broken that shouldn't be. On my laptop, my screen resolution is jacked and it wasn't in 8.10. That's with an Intel graphics card. My desktop now has sluggish performance on Firefox and Urban Terror -- both of which account for the vast majority of my PC usage. | 03:24 |
|---|
| akincer | so no, it isn't worth it for me | 03:24 |
|---|
| zetheroo1 | losher: less stable? not here | 03:24 |

| jdu | yowshi, do you get any particular errors? where does it stop? | 03:27 |
|---|
| eseven73 | first few weeks of any release is a bit rough sailing, 8.10 was like that too | 03:27 |
|---|
| cdw32 | i cant get jaunty to dl | 03:27 |
|---|
| Looce | Guest60616: clear all the files in /tmp, run apt-get clean, probably some more things I'm not thinking of to clear unnecessary files | 03:28 |
|---|
| losher | zetheroo1: I haven't tracked them, you could check the #ubuntu archives, when I say I've been seeing them, I meant on here... | 03:28 |
|---|
| cdw32 | its not coming up in the update manager to install and it keeps saying that my repositories are not valid | 03:28 |
|---|
| cdw32 | i dont kno what to do | 03:28 |
|---|
| cchapman | lookin at 9.04 is it as stable as 8.10? | 03:28 |
|---|
| corinth | akincer: Have you figured out a fix yet? | 03:28 |
|---|
| ltgg | crdlb: no apparent harm done .... but still not working | 03:28 |
|---|
| Looce | cchapman: to me it is, even if there is a performance regression on the Intel driver | 03:28 |
|---|
| losher | zetheroo1: my own 9.04 was usable but I had to work on it... | 03:28 |
|---|
| zetheroo1 | losher: ahhh I see ... but thats very typical ... I mean they will be rolling out fixes within the week ... | 03:28 |
|---|
| Guest60616 | i think add/remove programs is doing it, it is jammed. | 03:28 |
|---|
| unomi | ubuntu should be adopting the rule of 'its done when its done' | 03:28 |
|---|
| akincer | corinth: No. I'm about a minute away from wiping my system and putting 8.10 back on. Sadly I don't have time to figure out all the stupid things that I shouldn't have to figure out. | 03:28 |
|---|
| Guest60616 | how can i force it closed? | 03:29 |
|---|
| crdlb | ltgg: you need to log out before it'll work | 03:29 |
|---|
| jdu | unomi, then use debian | 03:29 |
|---|
| losher | zetheroo1: hence my general advice. i.e. if you can afford to wait, do so.... | 03:29 |
|---|
| zetheroo1 | losher: I am running Jaunty on 2 laptops (Thinkpad + HP) 1 netbook and 1 desktop.... working all around | 03:29 |
|---|
| Looce | Guest60616: press the X, wait 10 seconds, click Force Quit | 03:29 |

| unomi | jdu, seriously considering going back to freebsd | 03:29 |

| dto | hi. i get slight screen flickers during screen updates. it's slight but significant enough to be a problem. | 03:29 |

| drfreema | ieatnoobs: /etc/X11/ | 03:29 |

| Looce | Guest60616: or add an applet called "Force Quit" to your top panel, and then click it then the Add/Remove Programs | 03:29 |
|---|
| cdw32 | Is there an Tech Support number i can call? | 03:29 |
|---|
| zetheroo1 | losher: for me Intrepid was a useless release .... I guess its different for ev eryone | 03:29 |
|---|
| ltgg | crdlb: OK back soon | 03:29 |
|---|
| losher | zetheroo1: I don't mean to be argumentative. Not everyone has been so lucky. | 03:30 |
|---|
| dto | this flickering is happening on ubuntu 9.40 on an Acer Extensa 4420 laptop | 03:30 |
|---|
| cwillu | losher, the .04 is not referring to anything remotely like '1.0, 1.1, 1.2'. It's just the month of the year | 03:30 |
|---|
| Looce | +1 cwillu | 03:30 |
|---|
| jdu | unomi, I like freebsd, but the ports and the packages often seem to be outdated. | 03:30 |
|---|
| akincer | I have two different systems and 9.04 has been a failure on both | 03:30 |
|---|
| Guest60616 | AAACK!! things are locdking up. | 03:30 |
|---|
| yowshi | jdu http://dpaste.com/38202/ this was the script before one of the people in #bash "fixed it up" for me no i dont get errors it just repeats what i am supposing is the last command determined by the if satement. | 03:30 |
|---|
| Guest60616 | i need to reboot. | 03:30 |
|---|
| cdw32 | anyone? | 03:30 |
|---|
| unomi | jdu, thats true | 03:30 |

| zetheroo1 | akincer: what are your two machines? | 03:30 |
|---|
| Looce | cdw32: http://www.ubuntu.com/support/paid | 03:30 |
|---|
| akincer | cdw32: You can buy support on it if you want to. Check out www.canonical.com | 03:30 |
|---|
| drfreema | cdw32: ur in the tech support, here | 03:30 |

| losher | zetheroo1: In general, I don't recommend an upgrade for no reason. There's nearly always some fallout... | 03:31 |

|---|
| cdw32 | i have no idea how to use this system | 03:31 |
|---|
| zetheroo1 | losher: for sure .. but see for my systems the upgrade was an improvement as I no longer have kernel panics | 03:31 |
|---|
| dto | cornwall: is there a place i can turn compiz off fully? | 03:31 |
|---|
| hipitihop | I have a Dell Studio XPS laptop upgraded from 8.110 to 9.04 yesterday. I have so far had Ubuntu totally lockup 2 times. Can someone help me diagnose this ? | 03:31 |

|---|
| akincer | zetheroo1: On is a Dell E5500 Laptop and the other is a Dell Precision 380 workstation | 03:31 |

|---|
| ericP | anyone have any idea why under ubuntu, ctrl-g in emacs invokes the panic-inducing pcspkr sound? | 03:31 |

| losher | zetheroo1: Interesting. Personally, I've found 8.04 to be rock solid.... | 03:32 |
|---|
| cornwall | dto: well, I had flickering problems as well, and going under the GENERAL preferences and deselecting "unredirect fullscreen windows" fixed it for me | 03:32 |

| Linuz2009 | how to update kernel? | 03:32 |
|---|
| zetheroo1 | akincer: hmmm ... Dell is supposed to be pretty savy with Ubuntu ... although some of them use downright headache hardware ... even for Windows | 03:32 |
|---|
| cwillu | dto, disabling effects turns off compiz completely | 03:32 |
|---|
| dto | cornwall: where is the menu you're talking of? | 03:32 |

| GasAnthem | Linuz2009, also sudo apt-get dist-upgrade | 03:33 |

| Looce | Linuz2009: look for "linux-headers-generic" being in the update packages list, then type Y | 03:33 |
|---|
| losher | zetheroo1: So I tell beginners, use 8.04, and everyone else that 9.04 is 'at your own risk' currently | 03:33 |
|---|
| cdw32 | my update manager wont even work it says that the repositories failed | 03:33 |

|---|
| jdu | yowshi, what types of values does gcbotexplore return | 03:34 |
|---|
| cornwall | you probably don't have the package installed | 03:34 |

| akincer | zetheroo1: You aren't telling me anything I don't know. There is inertia where I don't have the money to buy anything else at the moment | 03:34 |
|---|
| cwillu | dto, it's not installed by default | 03:34 |
|---|
| zetheroo1 | losher: I think however that Intrepid is just as risky | 03:34 |
|---|
| cornwall | dto: go to Add/remove and search for "compiz", then install CompizConfig Settings Manger | 03:34 |

| PoetOfShadows | luis_: could be one thing | 03:35 |
|---|
| zetheroo1 | akincer: I understand ... however I would rather by a slightly lower specked Thinkpad than a Dell any day .... but truth be told ... can you not use Ndiswrapper for your broadcom wifi? | 03:35 |

| luis_ | PoetOfShadows: do you know what packed is that? i installed everything related :P | 03:36 |
|---|
| jdu | yowshi, so if I understand quickly, you want it to break out of the inner loop? and do the whole thing over gain? At the moment, that will never happen, on what condition do you want it to happen? | 03:36 |
|---|
| hipitihop | cwillu: I don't bellieve so, I upgraded from 8.10 | 03:36 |
|---|
| zetheroo1 | akincer ... I see ... so 9.04 is not picking up the ethernet? | 03:36 |

| cwillu | hipitihop, what video card? | 03:36 |

| losher | zetheroo1: You said they're improved in 9.04? You're the 1st person I've seen on here to mention it... | 03:36 |

| losher | zetheroo1: People who've been through a few releases commented last night that 9.04 wasn't as troublesome as previous releases. I think any time you release to a schedule, whether the code is ready or not, the quality is gonna vary.... | 03:38 |
|---|
| dto | cornwall: ok i've got the ccsm installed... | 03:38 |
|---|

|---|
| losher | jander99: I don't think so. I think I was running fedora in those days, till it got unstable.... | 03:39 |
|---|
| zetheroo1 | losher: I think that we are having more issues reported somewhat due to Ubuntu becoming more and more popular and therefore there being so many more "testers" | 03:39 |

| zetheroo1 | I thought Nvidia was solved in Jaunty ... ha | 03:40 |

| losher | zetheroo1: could be, but the product is getting any smaller and simpler. A new filesystem, new kde, etc. The newer it is, the more bugs it will have... | 03:40 |
|---|
| cornwall | dto: it should be immediate. | 03:40 |

| zetheroo1 | voss: ok | 03:41 |
|---|
| cornwall | dto: This setting apparently makes all fullscreen go through compiz or something, so performance may decrease, but, really, I've been playing a playstation emulator fullscreen all day with no problem | 03:41 |
|---|
| losher | zetheroo1: nor me, but there's more code than ever to maintain -> lower quality, or higher cost... | 03:41 |
|---|
| voss | lvs, 9800 GT, asus 1980x1050 monitor | 03:41 |
|---|
| cornwall | dto: so I can't report any decrease personally | 03:41 |
|---|
| PoetOfShadows | luis_: do you remember where you got it? | 03:41 |
|---|
| luis_ | PoetOfShadows: there is a metacity folder and a gtk2.0 folder... with no readme inside | 03:41 |
|---|
| lvs | voss: is that widescreen? | 03:42 |
|---|
| dto | cornwall: that feature was already turned on for me | 03:42 |

| PoetOfShadows | luis_: do you remember where you got it? | 03:42 |
|---|
| yowshi | jdu: i see and how will this change anything? | 03:42 |
|---|
| losher | zetheroo1: the old joke: fast, high quality, cheap: pick any *two*.... | 03:42 |
|---|
| cornwall | dto: yeah, you're supposed to turn it off | 03:42 |
|---|
| luis_ | PoetOfShadows: yes... gnome-look in the gtk2.0 theme section | 03:42 |
|---|
| ltgg | crdlb: still there? | 03:42 |

| voss | lvs, imagine a widescreen monitor now make it wider ;-) Its true hd dimensions 16x9 | 03:42 |

| Kengine | I am trying to set private ip in my Ubuntu box, I went to network edit connection and did IPV4 manual setting and setup my ip and netmask, and pressed ok, what to do now to see if its working ? I pinged and it doesnt work | 03:42 |
|---|
| cornwall | dto: yes | 03:42 |
|---|
| dto | i still get some flickering in emacs | 03:42 |

| PoetOfShadows | luis_: go back and see if there is anything indicating anything there | 03:42 |

| lvs | voss: cool. mind if i send you a message? | 03:42 |
|---|
| voss | lvs ok | 03:42 |
|---|
| cornwall | dto: hm... | 03:42 |
|---|
| luis_ | PoetOfShadows: well none of the themes work properly... maybe its something more general :X | 03:43 |
|---|
| hipitihop | voss: btw, I'm currently using ethernet cable to my router, although I can see my wireless AP so wifi is obviously on | 03:43 |
|---|
| PoetOfShadows | luis_: have you tried logging out and then back in? | 03:43 |
|---|
| luis_ | PoetOfShadows: yes... twice | 03:43 |
|---|
| dto | cornwall: i'm going to try fluxbox | 03:43 |
|---|
| luis_ | PoetOfShadows: do i need to restart or just relog in X? | 03:43 |
|---|
| dto | cornwall: brb | 03:43 |
|---|
| PoetOfShadows | luis_: try restarting X, and then if that doesn't work, then I dunno what to tell you. I usually don't use gnome, but when I do, that's what my problem usually is (damn theme engines) | 03:44 |

| Joeseph | When I start the Update Manager, it informs me that I am in the middle of a partial install. When I click on it, it brings me up to the prompt that tells me how much I have to download. After I say "Start Upgrade" It reads 'cache' and then dissolves into a flames. (heheh..... Compiz...) Any ideas on why I can't get any farther than reading the cache in my partial upgrade? | 03:44 |
|---|
| crdlb | ltgg: yes | 03:45 |
|---|
| yowshi | jdu: ok what that does is is break the for loop. it gives errors on line 19 and 21 and then just executes what ever command is after the done > | 03:45 |
|---|
| yowshi | jdu: err done < | 03:45 |
|---|
| PoetOfShadows | Joeseph: did you try using the terminal to update/upgrade? | 03:45 |
|---|
| Joeseph | PoetOfShadows: I have not tried that yet. What command do I use? | 03:45 |
|---|
| jdu | yowshi, otherwise, gcbotstdin and out are storing them as a string. That is not what you want, right. I have to go, sorry I haven't helped. Either add a break statement to the inner loop, or make sure gcbotexplore eventually returns something false. | 03:46 |
|---|
| Advance | Since the distro update I can no longer use the viewport switcher on compiz, I don't even know where to start and I know it's not a compiz error.. any help? | 03:46 |

|---|
| PoetOfShadows | Joeseph: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade | 03:46 |

| Armorial | Could not find libmad on your system: you may get it from http://www.underbit.com/products/mad/. Alternatively you can use --disable-mad to disable the mad plugin. | 03:49 |

| Armorial | why? | 03:49 |

| freemind | acp_, what is ltsp? | 03:55 |

|---|
| freemind | Kengine, check the settings in console with ifconfig | 03:56 |

| tritium | usser: enough | 04:14 |

| daveWM_ | although sometimes it might take hours... its one of those funky things | 04:14 |
|---|
| ieatnoobs | Okay, need some help. Have an NVIDIA 7150M. When I start compiz, I get a black screen. What do I do? | 04:14 |
|---|
| jbmigel | daveWM_ you could also maybe use something like QEMU and mount your images in there without reformatting all the time? | 04:14 |
|---|
| mase_work | usser: if its in use, a busy connection and you have the correct wireless gear to insert specific packets , you can usually do it in under 60 seconds | 04:14 |

| TopBunny88 | IMHO a wifi connection secured with wpa+psk is the most secure wifi connection that one can have usser | 04:15 |
|---|
| usser | mase_work, cool | 04:15 |

| Adremelech|Lapto | Anthrax704, i dont think thats needed | 04:16 |

|---|
| cornwall | etb: I may be wrong, though | 04:19 |
|---|
| mase_work | ieatnoobs: because laptops are nororiusly compact and difficult to pull appart and unless your cpu is really really old then you won't get much benefit from upgrading and if your CPU is that old its unlikely you will be able to buy the cpu anymore | 04:19 |
|---|
| ieatnoobs | mase_work: Oh. | 04:19 |

| td123 | is there a known bug where gvfsd is using ~ 1.7gb of memory? | 04:28 |
|---|
| daveWM_ | to show all processes | 04:28 |
|---|
| TopBunny88 | psychic: Have you check thoes game against the wine compatibility database | 04:28 |
|---|
| mase_work | psychic: that will be doing it. Do you have many extensions or something like flash which is chewing up the cpu | 04:28 |
|---|
| daveWM_ | although i guess you'd have to do sudo ps -A | 04:28 |
|---|
| psychic | ubuntu_fan thanx lol i fixxed my screen issue after 4 days in here and forums lol | 04:28 |

|---|

|---|
| psychic | daveWM how do i do that ps -A thing | 04:29 |
|---|
| psychic | ? | 04:29 |
|---|
| td123 | MK13: my system has 2gb, I remember gvfsd using 1.7 gb (since my comp was acting slow, I decided to check) | 04:29 |
|---|
| daveWM_ | just open a terminal psychic | 04:30 |
|---|
| psychic | o cool | 04:30 |
|---|
| daveWM_ | type sudo ps -A | 04:30 |
|---|
| jbmigel | psychic just open a terminal and type it in.... but i think 'top' might help better | 04:30 |
|---|
| psychic | terminal i can do | 04:30 |
|---|
| psychic | topbunny88? | 04:30 |
|---|
| daveWM_ | top shows them according to resources jbmigel ? | 04:30 |
|---|
| ltgg | crdlb: no change ... boots to lockup ... should I not have tried xfix? | 04:30 |
|---|
| daveWM_ | i don't remember | 04:30 |
|---|
| psychic | jbmigel top what | 04:31 |
|---|
| psychic | ? | 04:31 |
|---|
| jbmigel | daveWM_ well by cpu activity... which is probably correlated with drive activity | 04:31 |
|---|
| MK13 | td123: your system may has 2 GB installed, but your GPU (Nvidia maybe, maybe close to a 7000M?) has some of that ram dedicated to it, so your operating system only has ~1.7GB available | 04:31 |
|---|
| crdlb | ltgg: I don't see how it could be locking up with the vesa driver :/ | 04:31 |
|---|
| jbmigel | psychic just type top and hit enter | 04:31 |
|---|
| daveWM_ | ah yea psychic | 04:31 |
|---|
| daveWM_ | just type "top" | 04:31 |
|---|
| psychic | ok will try | 04:31 |
|---|
| daveWM_ | and see what's got the most activity | 04:31 |
|---|
| jbmigel | psychic hit q to quit it | 04:31 |
|---|
| daveWM_ | he's right | 04:32 |
|---|
| ubuntu_fan | top is realy sharp | 04:32 |
|---|
| c0l2e | previously I use ubuntu liveCD to clone drives.... not I can clone Windows XP but the copied version won't work. It stuck on the login screen | 04:32 |
|---|
| td123 | MK13: right, but that doesn't explain why gvfsd is using 1.7gb of memory | 04:32 |
|---|
| c0l2e | it usually works in 8.04 | 04:32 |
|---|
| crdlb | ltgg: just to make sure, you don't have xserver-xorg-video-radeonhd installed, do you? (you can check with apt-cache policy) | 04:32 |
|---|
| evanotten | hey i was wondering if one of you could lead me towards a program that will play dvd's and one that is capable of handling interactive menu's i.e. the sopranos dvd's | 04:32 |
|---|
| trish1 | crdlb: here the pastebin http://pastebin.com/f5eacdf5d | 04:32 |
|---|
| Xcell | htop is pretty | 04:32 |
|---|
| Xcell | lol | 04:32 |
|---|
| psychic | u know firefox is taking 33 % ave processor but i think its somthing i messed up in swap | 04:33 |
|---|
| c0l2e | is there a huge difference on ntfs tools now in 9.04?? | 04:33 |
|---|
| daveWM_ | i wonder if any of those indicate disk activity | 04:33 |
|---|
| psychic | i made a new swap | 04:33 |
|---|
| jbmigel | ya i spend all my free time staring at top output... just incase my computer tries to do something it gives me time to reboot | 04:33 |
|---|
| td123 | evanotten: try vlc | 04:33 |
|---|
| evanotten | i just downloaded dragon player and it only plays the initial sequence of dvd | 04:33 |
|---|
| psychic | thats the continuous spining of my h.d. prob i think | 04:33 |
|---|
| daveWM_ | did you set swappiness psychic ? | 04:33 |
|---|
| psychic | it makes since to me anyways | 04:33 |
|---|
| Xcell | psychic-- its better than opera...opera steals your processor and alot of ram | 04:33 |
|---|
| daveWM_ | you might be swapping constantly | 04:33 |
|---|
| mattgyver | Is there an application similar to Audacity that allows you to edit video files? | 04:33 |
|---|
| psychic | no it was all manual | 04:33 |
|---|
| crdlb | trish1: as I suspected, you have a libX11 in /usr/local (ie you installed it from source) | 04:33 |
|---|
| baz | i can attest the examples using "foo, bar, BAZ" are used at least 1 time per day | 04:33 |
|---|
| redpearl | during upgrade fro 8.10 to 9.04 fail via internet. want to know if i can download alternate cd and install upgrade via command line. i can't login to X. only command line accessible now | 04:34 |
|---|
| === phuz|dupe is now known as phuzion |
| psychic | what ever would be done by going with !swap | 04:34 |
|---|
| psychic | in here | 04:34 |
|---|
| trish1 | crld: it might be the kde4-neon i guess | 04:34 |
|---|
| evanotten | will do thank you | 04:34 |
|---|
| psychic | i have epiphamy to | 04:34 |
|---|
| trish1 | crld: but this means i cant run this anymore? | 04:34 |
|---|
| MK13 | td123: are you using rhythmbox? | 04:34 |
|---|
| psychic | i use firefox the most | 04:34 |
|---|
| daveWM_ | iceweasel and epiphany are pretty sweet | 04:34 |
|---|
| psychic | hey my hard drive is sleeping | 04:35 |
|---|
| psychic | so peaceful | 04:35 |
|---|
| Xcell | noscript + firefox = security | 04:35 |
|---|
| daveWM_ | mid-browser is nifty too if you like something easy to look at | 04:35 |
|---|
| daveWM_ | heh | 04:35 |
|---|
| ubuntu_fan | lol | 04:35 |
|---|
| crdlb | trish1: as a quick fix, you can: sudo mv /usr/local /usr/local.save (be very careful that you get that command right) that'll get graphics working at least | 04:35 |
|---|
| td123 | MK13: I don't remember if I was using it at that time, but yes, I do use it quiet frequently | 04:35 |
|---|
| redpearl | does gksu need to run inside GUI? | 04:35 |
|---|
| MK13 | td123: maybe http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=981606 | 04:35 |
|---|
| td123 | MK13: and I remember leaving my computer idle for a long time before finding out that it was using an obnoxious amount of memory | 04:35 |
|---|
| td123 | MK13: ty, i'll take a look | 04:36 |
|---|
| trish1 | crld: YES! its working now, thanks! | 04:37 |
|---|
| jmanuel_cool | join irc://irc-hispano.org | 04:37 |

| psychic | is there anyway that i can change my swapiness to 100 | 04:37 |
|---|
| psychic | ? | 04:37 |
|---|
| ltgg | crdlb: checked xorg.conf again and it has reverted to file without driver "vesa" will try again | 04:37 |

| trish1 | well im happy that its wokring now, but it means that i have to work tomorrow with no excuses hah | 04:37 |
|---|
| psychic | ubuntu_fan things have slowed down a bit in here | 04:38 |
|---|
| psychic | under 1500 people now | 04:38 |
|---|
| psychic | 9.04 got things busy huh | 04:38 |
|---|
| jbmigel | so many early adopters... im running 7.10 still waiting for 8.04 to get stable | 04:39 |
|---|
| evanotten | i am having some trouble with vlc, as i am new with linux can someone help me get the dvd i have in to play? | 04:39 |
|---|
| cornwall | yeah, my 9.04 has been fine, have all of you guys' been as well? | 04:39 |
|---|
| ubuntu_fan | thats good nice an peaceful | 04:39 |
|---|
| CuriosTiger | Hrmf. | 04:39 |
|---|
| asiks | Did anyone else's upgrade from 8 to 9 go all completely borked? | 04:39 |
|---|
| CuriosTiger | So Ubuntu tells me tghere's a proprietary nvidia driver available. I tell it to Activate. | 04:39 |
|---|
| CuriosTiger | It downloads the driver, but it doesn't seem to Activate | 04:39 |
|---|
| uWin2Linux | i did a upgrade from 8 to 9....was not pretty | 04:39 |
|---|
| cornwall | asiks: my upgrade did bork a lot, but a fresh install and I've been fantastic :) | 04:39 |
|---|
| Adil | a general question. Want to import my music folder on my mac onto my ubuntu machine | 04:39 |
|---|
| CuriosTiger | and then after reboot, it complains my video config is broken. | 04:40 |
|---|
| ubuntu_fan | I love the fact that ubuntu works without any real work | 04:40 |
|---|
| Adil | if i just copy the itunes folder, its not very organized | 04:40 |
|---|
| jbmigel | i think when i decide to 'upgrade' ill just reformat and start over... | 04:40 |
|---|
| asiks | cornwall - Yeah, I ended up doing a fresh install. | 04:40 |
|---|
| Adil | any ideas? | 04:40 |
|---|
| CuriosTiger | ubuntu: I love that ideal. I wish it did for me more often | 04:40 |
|---|
| cornwall | asiks: just another reason to go ext4, eh? ;) | 04:40 |
|---|
| uWin2Linux | yeah that what i would recommend to anyone | 04:40 |
|---|
| CuriosTiger | it's rare that it works out of the box without having to tweak something -- usually video or networking | 04:40 |
|---|
| CuriosTiger | (or both) | 04:40 |
|---|
| asiks | cornwall- Installing from the live disk by default does ext3 apparently | 04:40 |
|---|
| Stepan1 | I want to launch a file at startup. I went into System>Preferences>Sessions. I clicked add and clicked browse and selected the file. It does not load up. Anyone know why? | 04:40 |
|---|
| jbmigel | wtf ext4... what did they add to it | 04:41 |
|---|
| CuriosTiger | asiks: It does, but you can change that during install | 04:41 |
|---|
| CuriosTiger | I did -- mostly to see how ext4 performs | 04:41 |
|---|
| asiks | Where? | 04:41 |
|---|
| ubuntu_fan | I am looking at ruby rails now as a next thing to get into | 04:41 |
|---|
| cornwall | asiks: yeah, but I went ext4 and am loving it. My very modest setup is pretty dang fast and effective | 04:41 |
|---|
| CuriosTiger | asiks: In the partitioner | 04:41 |
|---|
| CuriosTiger | double-click on the suggested / partition and change the type to ext4 | 04:41 |
|---|
| asiks | I didn't want to do it manually because I was afraid I'd accidentally nuke my xp install | 04:41 |
|---|
| jbmigel | whats the difference between ext3 and ext4 anyway? | 04:41 |
|---|
| asiks | Can you do that within the 'guided' install process? | 04:41 |
|---|
| CuriosTiger | performance improvements and some added features | 04:41 |
|---|
| psychic | xorg is eating 30 or so % of my system now | 04:42 |
|---|
| CuriosTiger | asiks: Dunno. The guided install process didn't let me span an LVM across multiple physical disks, so I went manual | 04:42 |
|---|
| ubuntu_fan | ode freenode-connect is a real nice and easy irc channel as well | 04:42 |
|---|
| cornwall | jbmigel: mainly speed, but also some functionality enhancements like being able to handle much larger file sizes and the like | 04:42 |
|---|
| jbmigel | psychic if you stare at that long enough you'll start to complain about 'top' using your resources | 04:42 |
|---|
| c0l2e | How can I properly clone windows XP using ubuntu liveCD gparted ?? | 04:42 |
|---|
| ubuntu_fan | lol | 04:42 |
|---|
| egosintrick | <asiks> you must use manual install to choose other file systems | 04:42 |
|---|
| psychic | lol i am already there | 04:42 |
|---|
| ltgg | crdlb: no change ... is | 04:42 |
|---|
| asiks | hm | 04:42 |
|---|
| asiks | How can I be sure I won't nuke my xp install? haha | 04:43 |
|---|
| CuriosTiger | asiks: Back it up first. | 04:43 |
|---|
| CuriosTiger | Seriously. | 04:43 |
|---|
| egosintrick | it will show your xp partition- just don't use it lolz | 04:43 |
|---|
| Xcell | psychic-- if you have not...install htop... a little better | 04:43 |
|---|
| cfedde | is kvm the favorite hypervisor under ubuntu? | 04:43 |
|---|
| egosintrick | but you can resize it | 04:43 |
|---|
| asiks | I guess I should try that before I get too settled in with this fresh install | 04:43 |
|---|
| psychic | jbmigel ...funny..., i'll close the terminal window now nothing suspisious just poor system performance i'll learn it | 04:43 |
|---|
| uWin2Linux | i installed virtualbox | 04:43 |
|---|
| CuriosTiger | Can anyone offer me a suggestion on how to get the proprietary nvidia video driver to work with Xorg in Jaunty? | 04:43 |
|---|
| asiks | Are there any drawbacks with ext4? | 04:43 |
|---|
| ltgg | crdlb: is apt-cache policy a command line? | 04:43 |
|---|
| psychic | Xcell how so? | 04:44 |
|---|
| psychic | or how? | 04:44 |
|---|
| egosintrick | ? | 04:44 |
|---|
| CuriosTiger | asiks: Several, the primary one being backwards compatibility | 04:44 |
|---|
| cornwall | asiks: there were reported data losses, but I haven't had a single problem | 04:44 |
|---|
| crdlb | ltgg: part of one, yes: apt-cache policy xserver-xorg-video-radeonhd | 04:44 |
|---|
| egosintrick | i use reiserfs- it's better if you have many small files | 04:44 |
|---|
| Xcell | psychic-- open terminal and do it.. sudo apt-get install htop | 04:44 |
|---|
| psychic | sudo apt-get install htop or somthing? | 04:44 |
|---|
| CuriosTiger | once you mount an ext4 file system with the new options, older linux systems can no longer read it | 04:44 |
|---|
| asiks | backwards compibility in what sense? | 04:44 |
|---|
| psychic | o ok | 04:44 |
|---|
| psychic | thanks | 04:44 |
|---|
| asiks | oh | 04:44 |
|---|
| cornwall | asiks: but I am backing up regularly to avoid any disaster | 04:44 |
|---|
| absentia | hi .. just instaled 9.04 -- under vmware fusion on osx 10.5.6 -- very nice.. fast.. now I'm trying to install some new software -- I went to the add/remove programs drop down.. selected "ALL" .. but it doesn't see "tcsh" "emacs" "bash" ... am I doing something wrong? why can't it find these very basic programs ? | 04:44 |
|---|
| egosintrick | cluster size difference or something | 04:44 |
|---|
| nothingman | hi, all | 04:44 |
|---|
| CuriosTiger | egos: it's pretty much abandonware since Hans Reiser went to jail and his company collapsed, though | 04:44 |

| evanotten | i am currently unable to get a dvd to play it only plays the initial screen can anyone help me view a dvd that has menu's I have downloaded dragon player and now vlc and cannot seem to get things running? thank you in advance for you help | 04:44 |
|---|
| asiks | All I have is xp and ubuntu, so going to ext4, that shouldn't matter | 04:44 |
|---|
| egosintrick | ! | 04:45 |
|---|
| nothingman | I dd'd the unr image to a 2.5GB flash disk, but I get "Hard disk boot sector invalid" error | 04:45 |
|---|
| egosintrick | wtf? | 04:45 |
|---|
| dewdude | absentia, you want synaptic for installing stuff | 04:45 |
|---|
| CuriosTiger | absentia: bash is already installed by default | 04:45 |
|---|
| cornwall | egosintrick: I'm curious, how stable is reiserfs for you, though? I have heard that it's a massively unstable fs | 04:45 |
|---|
| nothingman | any tips? | 04:45 |
|---|
| Advance | evanotten: did you ping me? | 04:45 |
|---|
| absentia | curios: it was a test -- it didn't say "alrady installeD" or show me a package | 04:45 |
|---|
| absentia | it said no match. | 04:45 |
|---|
| evanotten | hmm dunno | 04:45 |
|---|
| absentia | I figured it was installed -- so that should have shown me the package and then said it was already installed. | 04:45 |
|---|
| dewdude | absentia, synaptic...use synaptic | 04:45 |
|---|
| crdlb | absentia: add/remove is only for GUI applications that provide a menu entry | 04:45 |
|---|
| evanotten | anyone that can offer me advice cuz i am nub | 04:46 |
|---|
| crdlb | it's not a full package manager | 04:46 |
|---|
| absentia | synaptic? wazzat? | 04:46 |
|---|
| Xcell | lol | 04:46 |
|---|
| dewdude | a package manager | 04:46 |
|---|
| dewdude | i honestly don't know what add/remove programs does..... | 04:46 |
|---|
| nothingman | anyone here use the unr image? | 04:46 |
|---|
| Adil | so any suggestions? I want the mp3s i copied from itunes folder on ubuntu | 04:46 |
|---|
| absentia | crd: ah, ok. figured... what's the yast/yum/rpm manager for ubuntu? I've been using it for all of 3 mintes now. | 04:46 |
|---|
| Adil | any program that would do it for me? | 04:46 |
|---|
| Stepan1 | I need to a text file to launch on startup. | 04:46 |
|---|
| CuriosTiger | it's also a package manager, but limited, like crdlb said | 04:46 |
|---|
| dewdude | synaptic is the gui package manager | 04:46 |
|---|
| dewdude | apt-get is command line | 04:46 |
|---|
| Advance | evanotten: Oh you said advance in your what ever you want | 04:46 |
|---|
| absentia | thanks. | 04:46 |
|---|
| psychic | yea add/remove i funny | 04:46 |

| psychic | ooo... htop is coloryful | 04:47 |
|---|
| evanotten | i have the sopranos in and it goes to the initial screen but wont play automatically nor will it bring me to the main menu | 04:47 |
|---|
| jbmigel | psychic is it worth the disk space you think? | 04:47 |
|---|
| CuriosTiger | apt-get dist-upgrade from potato to woody hosed a debian system for me spectacularly once | 04:47 |
|---|
| CuriosTiger | :P | 04:47 |
|---|
| evanotten | this is the first time i have tried to run a dvd since moving to linux | 04:47 |
|---|
| dewdude | absentia, the add/remove programs is more like for installing end-user applications | 04:48 |
|---|
| dewdude | which you can do in synaptic | 04:48 |
|---|
| egosintrick | evan: make sure you have dvdnav4 installed | 04:48 |
|---|
| egosintrick | it for menus | 04:48 |
|---|
| psychic | hah yea its fine | 04:48 |
|---|
| carsonc | CuriosTiger: Wasn't that the libc5 -> libc6 transition on Debian? | 04:48 |
|---|
| brandonban6 | hey guys, how do I look up users under a group, is there a file under etc? like passwd, only for groups? | 04:48 |
|---|
| === ScottG490 is now known as ScottG489 |
| jbmigel | WTF! | 04:48 |
|---|
| egosintrick | evan: you also need libdvdcss2 | 04:48 |
|---|
| absentia | that got it -- thanks guys (gals) | 04:48 |
|---|
| evanotten | like kmplayer? | 04:48 |
|---|
| psychic | come on disk space or my entire swap and processor just being eatin up while my harddrive spins like the earth around the sun | 04:48 |
|---|
| CuriosTiger | carsonc: Yes. | 04:48 |
|---|
| CuriosTiger | carsonc: Which was also the problem | 04:49 |
|---|
| psychic | it's to diff stories ones only 55 kb | 04:49 |
|---|
| egosintrick | evan: it's an independant package | 04:49 |
|---|
| CuriosTiger | carsonc: apt-get replaced my libc.so.1 | 04:49 |
|---|
| egosintrick | all players use it | 04:49 |
|---|
| CuriosTiger | or glibc.so.1 rather | 04:49 |
|---|
| egosintrick | vlc might not need it | 04:49 |
|---|
| jbmigel | the gutsy sources have been disabled!!! how am i suppsed to install htop now eh?? | 04:49 |
|---|
| CuriosTiger | which basically made every binary on the system shit itself | 04:49 |
|---|
| ltgg | crdlb: I have booted into a 2nd Ubuntu install on the failed machine that lets me look at the 9.0 install ... will this help? | 04:49 |
|---|
| carsonc | Yeah, I remember that upgrade. I think I just said screw it and installed from scratch | 04:49 |
|---|
| CuriosTiger | carsonc: I said screw it and installed redhat ;) | 04:50 |
|---|
| crdlb | ltgg: if you can mount the jaunty partition, please pastebin the /var/log/Xorg.0.log off of it | 04:50 |
|---|
| Xcell | jbmigel-- mine work fine | 04:50 |
|---|
| jbmigel | Xcell you're running gutsy too? | 04:50 |
|---|
| Xcell | jbmigel-- make sure its on (main) server? | 04:50 |
|---|
| Xcell | ya | 04:50 |
|---|
| psychic | topbunny88 u stil here? | 04:50 |
|---|
| Jordan_U | jbmigel, Upgrade to a supported version of Ubuntu ( and even though telling you how to upgrade will also tell you how to install htop you should still upgrade to a supported version ) | 04:51 |
|---|
| jbmigel | Xcell i guess maybe that package isnt in the repo | 04:51 |
|---|

|---|
| psychic | lol i know i'm joking | 04:53 |
|---|
| Jordan_U | jbmigel, Well it's now unsupported and insecure, you can stay on hardy for a while though since it's LTS | 04:53 |
|---|
| Xcell | floodbot broke? | 04:53 |
|---|
| psychic | relaed chill | 04:53 |
|---|
| daveWM_ | if you're looking to tweak performance, i'd look into figuring out what services you can disable, and what packages are not used | 04:53 |
|---|
| psychic | relaed seriously fix ur head or your keyboard or somthing god bless u | 04:53 |
|---|
| Polterge|st | it looks like it | 04:53 |
|---|
| jbmigel | Jordan_U im affraid to upgrade cuz my wifi might stop working... can you totally promise it will still work out of the box | 04:53 |
|---|
| maco | Xcell: floodbot requires that there be multiple messages in a short period. the big one was only 1 message | 04:54 |

| CuriosTiger | http://viking.austin.tx.us/Xorg.0.log <-- can anyone see anything obvious in here that's preventing the proprietary nvidia drivers from loading? | 04:54 |
|---|
| SoulNothing | Hey quick question im trying to install 9.04 but no video shows up, I have a 9600gt, i know appending vesa to the grub line which worked before 9.04 but no go now. I'm aware of the altnerate install cd however i dont have any spare blank cds, ive tried deb bootstrap, and a usb flash drive and no go booting it up, is there any option i can append to get it to go to vesa on the live installer? | 04:54 |
|---|
| maco | evanotten: install totem-xine and use that instead of totem-gstreamer (the default). it has dvd menu support | 04:54 |
|---|
| psychic | polterge|st my computer has one of those its eating my hard drive | 04:55 |
|---|
| Jordan_U | jbmigel, No, but it probably will. You can always try the LiveCD for Hardy ( if you want long term support ) or Jaunty ( if you want the newest version ) | 04:55 |
|---|
| Polterge|st | I hope a proc will get made for this dell optiplex gx50 | 04:55 |
|---|
| daveWM_ | you could try a lighter distribution psychic | 04:55 |
|---|
| Polterge|st | a 2ghz perhaps | 04:55 |
|---|
| psychic | i have 9.04... thought it would be ok | 04:55 |
|---|
| CuriosTiger | the only thing I see is an initial failure to detect keyboard/mouse (because they're legacy devices), but they work fine | 04:55 |
|---|
| jbmigel | Jordan_U thats ok ill wait untill ragnarok... thanks for the suggestion | 04:55 |
|---|
| sdtr443w | In 9.04 I tried to enter the netboot mode but it asked for a root password. <Enter> didn't work nor my normal sudo p/w. I don't have an entry in /etc/shadow so I don't know what it wants. | 04:55 |
|---|
| Polterge|st | it is a 1.2 and it is alright but 2 ghz would be nice | 04:55 |
|---|
| evanotten | cool lemme check it out | 04:55 |
|---|
| evanotten | thanks | 04:55 |
|---|
| CuriosTiger | and then the error that the nvidia module can't load | 04:55 |
|---|
| psychic | relaed needs something lighter | 04:55 |
|---|
| scunizi | CuriosTiger: what driver did you load? | 04:55 |
|---|
| SoulNothing | pychic xubuntu still to heavy? | 04:56 |
|---|
| CuriosTiger | scunizi: The nvidia 180 one | 04:56 |
|---|
| ltgg_ | crdlb: http://paste.ubuntu.com/159010/ | 04:56 |
|---|
| CuriosTiger | forceware build 180 I guess | 04:56 |
|---|
| scunizi | CuriosTiger: the one in the repos and in the restricted driver manager? | 04:56 |
|---|
| CuriosTiger | scunizi: Restricted driver manager. | 04:56 |
|---|
| psychic | i dont know if i even have ubuntu lol | 04:56 |
|---|
| CarlFK | I just added 2 pci video cards: rage128 and mach64. is there some magic that will create a default xorg.con file that loads the needed drivers? | 04:56 |
|---|
| blacknred0 | ok, before i go to sleep... does anybody knows why i can not mark my forums treads "[SOLVE]" in ubuntu forums? | 04:56 |
|---|
| Tech-Mike | bump | 04:56 |
|---|
| Jordan_U | jbmigel, Wait until ragnarok? | 04:56 |
|---|
| CuriosTiger | the binary driver | 04:56 |
|---|
| scunizi | CuriosTiger: you might try rebooting into the recovery kernel and using the "fix x" option on the menu | 04:56 |
|---|
| CuriosTiger | the open source one doesn't allow me more than 800x600, nor does it allow compiz fusion to work | 04:57 |
|---|
| CuriosTiger | scunizi: I did already, it completes but does not actually fix the problem | 04:57 |
|---|
| scunizi | CuriosTiger: also have you installed nvidia-settings? | 04:57 |
|---|
| rock | hello friends ,is communication port works in abuntu,for working it properly which package i need please help me | 04:57 |
|---|
| SoulNothing | Curious sudo rm -fv /etc/X11/xorg.conf, and it will generate a blank one and if that doesnt work sudo rmmod nvidia | 04:57 |
|---|
| crdlb | ltgg_: you could ask #xorg if they see something wrong with that, because I don't | 04:57 |
|---|
| Jordan_U | jbmigel, It's very rare that a wifi card is supported out of the box on one release and not the next, especially considering that the release after gutsy was LTS so regressions were taken more seriously than normal | 04:57 |
|---|
| sdtr443w | I'm having GFX driver problems too. I ran the ATI 9.3 installer w/o realizing it'll blow up on Ubuntu 9.04. | 04:58 |
|---|
| CarlFK | CuriosTiger: try xserver-xorg-video-nouveau works good for me | 04:58 |
|---|
| psychic | SoulNothing i originaly installed xubuntu did the desktop upgrade to ubuntu intrepid then just yesterday upgraded in synaptic to 9.04.. | 04:58 |
|---|
| CuriosTiger | hrm | 04:58 |
|---|
| CuriosTiger | module nvidia does not exist in /proc/modules | 04:58 |
|---|
| CuriosTiger | so it apparently fails to load at kernel level | 04:58 |
|---|
| sdtr443w | Now I can't sort out how to undo it and run the 9.4 one. It just hangs when I boot into X. Fixing X in recovery still locks up. Netboot asks for a password I don't know. | 04:58 |
|---|
| scunizi | CuriosTiger: check what SoulNothing mentioned above. | 04:58 |
|---|
| redpearl | anyone know where mod_ssl is for apache? | 04:58 |
|---|
| jbmigel | Jordan_U man i really want to believe you pal... but i just hate ndiswrapper so much im frozen with fear you know | 04:59 |
|---|
| CuriosTiger | soulnothing: Yeah, I was doing that when I realized rmmod nvidia didn't have a module to remove | 04:59 |
|---|
| CuriosTiger | so it's not loading at kernel level | 04:59 |
|---|
| CuriosTiger | let's see if modprobe can tell me why | 04:59 |
|---|
| Asphalt | Hey all, yesterday I setup a Samba server which authenticates over LDAP (basically emulating a Windows DC) Everything is going well, but excel files are not saving with the permission that they are being opened with. I am sure this has to do with a setting in Samba config, can anyone point me in the right direction to help? | 04:59 |
|---|
| Tech-Mike | redpearl: locate mod_ssl | 04:59 |

| sdtr443w | What password should I give when in the netboot choice for recovery mode? | 05:00 |

| cnwesleywang | sometimes no sound,after replace asound.state and reboot, sound come again. anyone knows why? | 05:00 |
|---|
| asiks | So when I do manual partition, what do i put as the mount point? | 05:01 |
|---|
| Xcell | !sound | 05:01 |
|---|
| ubottu | 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). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3 | 05:01 |

| mlissner | So, I just rebooted, and now compiz isn't working. I had done nothing to mess with compiz prior to rebooting, and I can't get it back. Any suggestions from the crowd? | 05:01 |
|---|
| sdtr443w | Is there a way to run the package manager off the live CD against a repository on an already installed hard drive? I wanted to remove some stuff with it. | 05:01 |
|---|
| Wolf23 | Jordan_U: i didnot do anything, just when i was in colombia it works fine,but now i am in venezuela it doesnot work | 05:01 |

| CuriosTiger | asiks: / | 05:01 |
|---|
| scunizi | asiks: make 3 partitions / for root, /home for home and /swap .. | 05:01 |
|---|
| CuriosTiger | scunizi: swap, not /swap | 05:01 |
|---|
| asiks | it makes a swap one automatically | 05:01 |
|---|
| CuriosTiger | and /home frankly is optional | 05:01 |
|---|
| asiks | i think | 05:01 |
|---|
| scunizi | CuriosTiger: tue | 05:01 |
|---|
| CuriosTiger | It does. | 05:01 |
|---|
| Xcell | mlissner-- try enabling it again? | 05:02 |
|---|
| scunizi | CuriosTiger: having a seperate /home is typically a good idea | 05:02 |
|---|
| CuriosTiger | but if you're in manual mode, we don't necessarily assume the auto-generated stuff survived :) | 05:02 |
|---|
| mlissner | Xcell: Sadly, no dice. | 05:02 |
|---|
| asiks | if i make /home a separate partition, that would mean if i have to reinstall again or for the next upgrade, i can keep what's in home more easily? | 05:02 |
|---|
| CuriosTiger | scunizi: Not a big issue on modern systems, although I'll agree it's still a good habit. | 05:02 |
|---|
| Jordan_U | asiks, Yes | 05:02 |
|---|
| dewdude | asiks: basically. | 05:02 |
|---|
| Xcell | all you did was fresh boot? | 05:02 |
|---|
| asiks | I have a 180 gig HD. How much space should I allocate for home? | 05:03 |
|---|
| Jordan_U | mlissner, What GFX card and did you ever install proprietary drivers manually? | 05:03 |
|---|
| mlissner | Xcell: well, it crashed first, but that's nothing new. I may have installed the latest updates since my last update. | 05:03 |
|---|
| asiks | and by 180 i mean 150 apparently | 05:03 |
|---|
| mlissner | Jordan_U: I have the i965 Intel card | 05:03 |
|---|
| Wolf23 | Jordan_U: where is the problem? | 05:03 |
|---|
| xxxxxx | how to slove grub Error17 | 05:04 |

| xanderp | me=jaunty amd64, cannot mount as user external ntfs partition without using sudo. I have tried all the tips I can find in google. (setuid on ntfs-3g and rebuild ntfs-3g with internal FUSE, and set mount point to be readable by the user.) Help please!!! | 05:04 |
|---|
| Jordan_U | Wolf23, I don't know what is causing the problem you are having with VMware | 05:05 |
|---|
| mlissner | So no ideas how to get this going, huh? | 05:05 |
|---|
| Xcell | evanotten-- using vlc should allow you to click on screen menue | 05:05 |
|---|
| asiks | Anyone have any advice on how to partition my drive? | 05:05 |
|---|
| dewdude | doesn't one usually have to be root to mount/unmount to begin with? | 05:05 |
|---|
| xxxxxx | Follow the web solution:when I run the grub | 05:05 |
|---|
| xxxxxx | type the command :find /boot/grub/stage1 | 05:05 |
|---|
| dewdude | asiks: that's a tough one. | 05:05 |
|---|
| ltgg | crdlb: are you out of ideas to recover my graphics then? | 05:05 |
|---|
| xxxxxx | return: Error 15: File not found | 05:06 |
|---|
| Jordan_U | mlissner, What version of ubuntu? | 05:06 |
|---|
| dewdude | /home generally contains all user created content | 05:06 |
|---|
| sdtr443w | what can I do if xorg locks up on starting up and an xfix doesn't solve it? | 05:06 |
|---|
| evanotten | i tried to run vlc and it load automatically so i go in and try to run it and it gives several files i am unable to find the right one so that it runs how it should | 05:06 |
|---|
| Wolf23 | Jordan_U: i told u it worked fine before,but i mean i have move from country to another country and the vmware guest = xp doesnot work the internet connection | 05:06 |
|---|
| asiks | that's all the music and movies and schoolwork whatnot I have, yes? | 05:06 |
|---|
| evanotten | i know i am nub :D | 05:06 |
|---|
| dewdude | yes. | 05:06 |
|---|
| mlissner | Jordan_U: Jaunty, recently upgraded, but I've rebooted since then. | 05:06 |
|---|
| asiks | So that should be fairly large | 05:06 |
|---|
| dewdude | but you also need to give your distro room to grow if you plan on installing a bunch of stuff | 05:06 |
|---|
| J-_ | Does the Intel® 945GC express chipset work well with Ubuntu? | 05:06 |
|---|
| xxxxxx | I can know the exact directry where stage is | 05:06 |
|---|
| asiks | Right | 05:07 |
|---|
| dewdude | and don't forget about your swap partition | 05:07 |
|---|
| Jordan_U | sdtr443w, Boot into recovery mode, go to root shell and edit your xorg.conf to use the "vesa" driver to get a basic driver going | 05:07 |
|---|
| asiks | Got that | 05:07 |
|---|
| dewdude | realistically, you could probably be good with say a 100gig home partition | 05:07 |
|---|
| xxxxxx | when I input the exact directry | 05:07 |
|---|
| asiks | Would having them on separate partitions make things like compiling more complicated? | 05:07 |
|---|
| dewdude | no | 05:07 |
|---|
| asiks | I have lived with a 72 gig HD and windows XP for a while. 100 gigs would be a step up | 05:07 |
|---|
| dewdude | linux mounts a partition pretty much wherever you want | 05:07 |
|---|
| xanderp | dewdude, you can usually set user in fstab to over ride for things like memory sticks etc... | 05:07 |
|---|
| xxxxxx | It does worsk,also Error 15 | 05:07 |
|---|
| Xcell | evanotten-- when dvd is in player... open vlc and click play.. | 05:07 |
|---|
| dewdude | auto-mount | 05:07 |
|---|
| dewdude | gnome generally handles things like that | 05:08 |
|---|
| Jordan_U | mlissner, I assume that you rebooted immediately after the upgrade finished, and it was working after the first boot after upgrading? | 05:08 |
|---|
| crdlb | ltgg: I can't think of anything :/ | 05:08 |
|---|
| evanotten | ok now an open screen is up | 05:08 |

| JustinHamilton | Has anyone else been having getting sound to work in Flash since upgrading to 9.04? | 05:08 |

|---|
| dien | guys, just want toknow how to fix grub? | 05:08 |

| xxxxxx | And the menu.lst not contain root(hdX,Y) | 05:08 |
|---|
| mlissner | Jordan_U: yep | 05:08 |
|---|
| CuriosTiger | what's the .deb containing the nvidia drivers called? | 05:08 |
|---|
| sebsebseb | CuriosTiger: why? | 05:09 |
|---|
| JustinHamilton | I can get video to work, but sound seems to be a problem. Sound works everywhere else aside from in flash. | 05:09 |

| xxxxxx | What should I do,how to fix my grub? | 05:09 |
|---|
| CuriosTiger | sebsebseb: It doesn't seem to have downloaded the binary driver properly, I was gonna retry it manually with apt-get | 05:09 |
|---|
| xanderp | Anyone found a way to make external (usb/esata) ntfs partitions mount without having to sudo them? | 05:09 |
|---|
| sdtr443w | Jordon_U: I get prompted for a password in the recovery options that isn't my normal password. What could it be wanting? | 05:09 |
|---|
| crdlb | ltgg: I guess you could try the opposite of what we just tried, sudo apt-get install xserver-xorg-video-ati, then put Driver "radeon" in /etc/X11/xorg.conf in place of vesa | 05:09 |
|---|
| sebsebseb | CuriosTiger: find it in synaptic and install like that? | 05:09 |
|---|
| crdlb | ltgg: that's the driver you were using before | 05:09 |
|---|
| sdtr443w | Jordon_U: If I knew that then I'd just run the proper ATI installer; it's botched since I used the 9.3 one when I should have used 9.4. | 05:10 |
|---|
| losher | asiks: I like to allocatte 10G to root, though 7G is enough. Allocate twice the size of ram to swap (on an extended partition) and allocate the rest to /home. A second, unused root partition (same 7G size) is handy as it will allow you to dual boot a different version of Ubuntu so you can play with different releases but drop back easily) | 05:10 |
|---|
| cornwall | CuriosTiger: There are multiple .deb files required for manual installation | 05:10 |

| scunizi | asiks: on initial install there's LOTS of room in the 10 gig partition.. just in case you install LAMP or other stuff that gets stuck there. | 05:11 |
|---|
| losher | evanotten: /dev/scd0 is fine... | 05:11 |
|---|
| Jordan_U | !upgrade | FloridaGuy | 05:11 |
|---|
| ubottu | FloridaGuy: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes - see also http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/upgrading | 05:11 |
|---|
| detrate | http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/upgrading | 05:11 |
|---|
| evanotten | i can get it to play the initial screen but it never goes to main menu | 05:12 |
|---|
| CuriosTiger | cornwall: Ah. | 05:12 |
|---|
| CuriosTiger | cornwall: I found a wiki article on it -- reading that | 05:12 |
|---|
| === Pebble is now known as ^Phantom^ |
| evanotten | >> am laughing at myself right now for not being able to accomplish what seems to be an easy task | 05:12 |
|---|
| ^Phantom^ | can winamp be run on ubuntu? | 05:12 |
|---|
| asiks | i dont think i used very much space with 8.10. I don't do anything heavy, just play some games (roguelikes, retro games) and media watching stuff. | 05:12 |
|---|
| cornwall | CuriosTiger: sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx-180 | 05:12 |
|---|
| ^Phantom^ | like can i run it directly off of my internal hard drive using wine? | 05:13 |
|---|
| cornwall | CuriosTiger: is that what you're looking for? That will install it | 05:13 |
|---|
| Jordan_U | sdtr443w, What exactly does it prompt for ( and if you misspell my name I won't notice your replies, try typing the first few letters then hitting tab ) | 05:13 |
|---|
| ltgg | crdlb: well thanks for trying ... perhaps I will try the xorg channel ... this really sucks ... today I was happy to finally have OO3 installed ... now this! | 05:13 |
|---|
| unkmar | well, i attempted and upgrade. now my laptop is just CRAP | 05:13 |
|---|
| sebsebseb | ^Phantom^: probably not | 05:13 |
|---|
| dewdude | Phantom: no. try Audacious | 05:13 |
|---|
| ^Phantom^ | D: | 05:13 |
|---|
| CuriosTiger | cornwall: That was, but it says it's already installed and yet modprobe nvidia claims the module doesn't exist | 05:13 |
|---|
| Xcell | ^Phantom^-- xmms | 05:13 |
|---|
| sebsebseb | ^Phantom^: ,but it can be run in Wine, however Linux has better native players :) | 05:13 |
|---|
| ^Phantom^ | I particularly *need* winamp for my tast | 05:13 |
|---|
| ^Phantom^ | task* | 05:13 |
|---|
| cornwall | CuriosTiger: Are you on Jaunty? I had problems with that as well | 05:13 |
|---|
| CuriosTiger | cornwall: I am indeed. | 05:13 |
|---|
| dewdude | what task? | 05:13 |
|---|
| asiks | Do I want "logical" or "primary", and "beginning" or "end" for the /home partition? | 05:13 |
|---|
| yowshi | i am having trouble getting these if staement working http://dpaste.com/38218/ can anyone here help? | 05:13 |
|---|
| cornwall | CuriosTiger: I'm trying to remember how I got it working.... | 05:13 |
|---|
| CuriosTiger | cornwall: 64-bit jaunty too, if that makes a difference | 05:13 |
|---|
| ieatnoobs | Okay, need some help. Have an NVIDIA 7150M. When I start compiz, I get a black screen. What do I do? | 05:13 |
|---|
| ^Phantom^ | or is there an ubuntu player that supports winamp input plugins? (in_*.dll) | 05:14 |
|---|
| CuriosTiger | cornwall: And apt-get remove + apt-get install (reinstall) didn't fix it :P | 05:14 |
|---|
| dewdude | what format do you need? | 05:14 |
|---|
| unkmar | sound broken | 05:14 |
|---|
| cornwall | CuriosTiger: What about apt-get purge? | 05:14 |
|---|
| unkmar | broadcom wirelss broken. Both on 8.04 hardy | 05:14 |
|---|
| CuriosTiger | let's try purge | 05:14 |
|---|
| dewdude | unkmar: did you install the firmware? | 05:14 |
|---|
| musikgoat|main | !compiz | ieatnoobs | 05:14 |
|---|
| ubottu | ieatnoobs: Compiz (compositing window manager), for a howto see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompositeManager and more help #compiz-fusion | 05:14 |
|---|
| ^Phantom^ | I really need a player that supports winamp's input plugins. are there any for ubuntu? | 05:15 |
|---|
| billybigrigger | can someone point me in the right direction on how to attach a domain i just purchased to my ubuntu server? do i just have to setup a hostname in /etc/hosts or how do i go about attaching my domain to my server? | 05:15 |
|---|
| scunizi | CuriosTiger: now you mention 64 bit.. there's a bug I remember reading about nvidia and 64 bit.. you might find it on nvidia's site | 05:15 |
|---|
| ieatnoobs | musikgoat: Idk what my prollem is. | 05:15 |
|---|
| CuriosTiger | nope, modprobe nvidia is still unhappy | 05:15 |
|---|
| dewdude | ^Phantom^, no. look, tell me what format you need and i'll track you down a player | 05:15 |
|---|
| CuriosTiger | which could have to do with those other packages | 05:15 |
|---|
| asiks | I would assume logical partition, but I really don't know if i want beginning or end for this | 05:15 |
|---|
| ^Phantom^ | .ast | 05:15 |
|---|
| Xcell | what kind of plugins | 05:15 |
|---|
| CuriosTiger | scunizi: Still current in forceware 180.51 ? | 05:15 |
|---|
| dewdude | .ast? | 05:15 |
|---|
| Xcell | oh | 05:15 |
|---|
| losher | asiks: does this make sense: root1, 10G, primary, bootable, root2 10G primary, extended/logical (rest of disk), /home (rest of disk on extended, less swap), swap on extended/logical (twice ram) | 05:15 |
|---|
| sebsebseb | ^Phantom^: see my PM | 05:15 |
|---|
| ^Phantom^ | .ast, .brstm. strm | 05:15 |
|---|
| ieatnoobs | That doesn't say anything about my problem | 05:15 |
|---|
| dewdude | i have no clue what those are | 05:16 |
|---|
| scunizi | CuriosTiger: not sure.. there is a work a round.. but I forgot what it was | 05:16 |
|---|
| TheFunkbomb | has anyone gotten any jaunty updates since the frozen RC? | 05:16 |
|---|
| dewdude | oh, Wii soundtracks | 05:16 |
|---|
| musikgoat|main | losher: what is root1 and root2? | 05:16 |
|---|
| Ascendancy | um hi new here | 05:16 |
|---|
| Jordan_U | billybigrigger, Set the ip that the domain points to to your server's public IP | 05:16 |
|---|
| unkmar | 8.04 Hardy Sound must be fixed. Beep is loud and it is past midnight. Can't be disturbing other people. | 05:16 |
|---|
| asiks | i have a 10 gig mount point /, the swap is 4630MB, What would root2 be for? | 05:16 |
|---|
| Ascendancy | i have a question about partitioning... | 05:17 |
|---|
| Ascendancy | can anybody help? | 05:17 |
|---|
| billybigrigger | Jordan_U, so there's nothing i have to do on the server side? just forward my domain to my ip address and im done? | 05:17 |
|---|
| asiks | I am asking about partioning, too. it is a party! | 05:17 |
|---|
| ieatnoobs | Can anyone help with my Compiz issue? | 05:17 |
|---|
| scunizi | asiks: forget root2.. no need | 05:17 |
|---|
| sdtr443w | Jordan_U: I have to paraphrase since I'm running off the recovery CD right now. When I select NETBOOT it prompts for the administrator password in a black text-mode console | 05:17 |
|---|
| Jordan_U | unkmar, "sudo rmmod pcspkr" should stop the beep entirely | 05:17 |
|---|
| CuriosTiger | scunizi: I'll take a look. Thanks. | 05:17 |
|---|
| losher | musikgoat|main: I recommend two root partitions | 05:17 |
|---|
| Ascendancy | so um i'm trying to get a partion for ubuntu | 05:17 |
|---|
| Ascendancy | by using the vista partioning tool | 05:18 |
|---|
| ieatnoobs | Musikgoat: That page didn't help | 05:18 |
|---|
| dewdude | HAH | 05:18 |
|---|
| Jordan_U | billybigrigger, Yup | 05:18 |
|---|
| losher | scunizi: it's optional, but it makes upgrades sooo easy | 05:18 |
|---|
| Ascendancy | and i have two pieces of unalloacted space | 05:18 |
|---|
| dewdude | the best you might be able to do is create freespace for a partition | 05:18 |
|---|
| cornwall | CuriosTiger: search synaptic for envyng-qt and install it. That's how I got it to work. | 05:18 |
|---|
| Xcell | ieatnoobs-- try shutting it off and rebooting and turning it back on.....sometimes works | 05:18 |
|---|
| asiks | Can I still use gparted to resize these partitions later if I need to? | 05:18 |
|---|
| Ascendancy | is there anyway i can combine them? | 05:18 |
|---|
| unkmar | Jordan_U: thank you. I'll put it back later. | 05:18 |
|---|
| ieatnoobs | xcell: If I start it my screen goes black. | 05:18 |
|---|
| Flannel | Ascendancy: Just shrink your vista stuff, and let the partitioner on the install CD take care of partiioning the unallocated space. | 05:18 |
|---|
| sdtr443w | Jordan_U: I typed up a new xorg.conf but I don't have much faith in it; I've had bad luck getting my widescreen LCD to work w/o an accelerated driver in the past. | 05:18 |
|---|
| MK131 | what is a fast way to produce the equivalent to the alt character of windows in ubuntu | 05:18 |
|---|
| musikgoat|main | ieatnoobs: the ubottu message was more to point to the compiz channel | 05:18 |
|---|
| Xcell | maybe re-install compix? | 05:18 |
|---|
| K4k | Has anyone had any luck getting the SoundBlaster X-Fi notebook card working in ubuntu? I want to get it but I'm not sure if there are any SB drivers for it. It's an express slot card | 05:19 |
|---|
| Xcell | compiz | 05:19 |
|---|
| Ascendancy | so flannel: does it matter if i have two pieces of space that are seperated? | 05:19 |
|---|
| ieatnoobs | didn't help | 05:19 |
|---|
| Xcell | nvidia? | 05:19 |
|---|
| Jordan_U | sdtr443w, Why are you choosing "NETBOOT" and what recovery CD? You should be using the "recovery mode" option from the grub menu | 05:19 |
|---|
| unkmar | broadcom wirelss broken. 8.04 hardy - I think I installed the firmware but I can't make heads nor tails out of the instruction page. | 05:19 |
|---|
| amdFANBOY | hey if my comuputer has RAID, the kind where there are two disks and they are mirrored, then i need the alternate install? | 05:19 |
|---|
| musikgoat|main | ieatnoobs: did you ask for help in #compiz-fusion ? | 05:19 |
|---|
| dewdude | unkmar, i had the same issue with a broadcom wifi card earlier in Jaunty | 05:19 |
|---|
| geovanny | hi, need help with my printer | 05:19 |
|---|
| ieatnoobs | Musikgoat: Thanks! | 05:19 |
|---|
| sdtr443w | Jordan_U: I'm currently in the 9.04 recovery CD. When doing netboot I was using the recovery mode grub option on my normal installation. | 05:19 |
|---|
| losher | asiks: yes, you can resize later if you need to, but it's a tedious, slow process on a larger disk, and if something goes wrong.... | 05:20 |
|---|
| dewdude | i'm trying to find the page i used | 05:20 |
|---|
| unkmar | dewdude: did you get it fixed? | 05:20 |
|---|
| MechWarrior | any one here from BUUG ? | 05:20 |
|---|
| MK131 | unkmar: you should just be able to run $ sudo apt-get install b43-fwcutter | and it would extract everything for u | 05:20 |
|---|
| dewdude | unkmar, i'm online aren't i? ;) | 05:20 |
|---|
| Xcell | lol | 05:20 |
|---|
| dewdude | ...b43-fwcutter was in apt? and here i went and compiled it | 05:20 |
|---|
| gumbyiscool | can anyone help me out with why my google starts up then shuts down? | 05:20 |
|---|
| Jordan_U | sdtr443w, The recovery mode option shouldn't say anything about netboot IIRC | 05:20 |
|---|
| Xcell | lol | 05:20 |
|---|
| unkmar | dewdude: I'm onlnie and might isn't fixed. not a great indicator. | 05:20 |
|---|
| ieatnoobs | Doesn't seem like there is anyone active there. | 05:20 |
|---|
| Flannel | Ascendancy: It's not ideal, but it can work, yes. | 05:20 |
|---|
| sdtr443w | Jordan_U: Basically anything off the recovery mode option that tried to go to a shell would ask for my root password. | 05:20 |
|---|
| Ascendancy | hey can ubuntu use two seperate pieces of unpartioned space, or does it need it to be a single piece? | 05:20 |
|---|
| unkmar | MK131: I did that earlier. | 05:20 |
|---|
| Ascendancy | oh ok thanks | 05:20 |
|---|
| geovanny | hi, need help with my printer, i don't know how install the driver for scan, i used ubuntu 9.04 64bits | 05:20 |
|---|
| gumbyiscool | google earth that is | 05:21 |
|---|
| asiks | Would setting aside a partition that ubuntu and windows could both see be a bad idea? like in ntfs? | 05:21 |
|---|
| JustinHamilton | Is there anyone who is good with Flash problems in this channel :) ? | 05:21 |
|---|
| dewdude | unkmar, did you put them in /lib/firmware | 05:21 |
|---|
| Ascendancy | Flannel: would there be a way to combine the space? or is it more hassle than its worth? | 05:21 |
|---|
| Jordan_U | sdtr443w, That's odd, is this a fairly standard install? | 05:21 |
|---|
| sdtr443w | Jordan_U: might be netroot--it's the one that would take somebody into what would normally be init 3 on another OS. | 05:21 |
|---|
| MK131 | asiks: i have one set up like that | 05:21 |
|---|
| Flannel | Ascendancy: you might be able to, yes. I'm not terribly familiar with windows partitioners though. | 05:21 |
|---|
| dewdude | asiks: that's actually a good idea | 05:21 |
|---|
| asiks | I had that with ubuntu 8. I don't see Ntfs on the list of formats here though | 05:21 |
|---|
| sdtr443w | Jordan_U: I upgraded from 8.10 to 9.04. It was being a good boy until I tried to install the ATI 9.3 drivers when I should have done 9.4. Now it locks up going into X and it snubs me trying to do any console recover stuff. | 05:22 |
|---|
| MechWarrior | I Fixed my problem by reinstalling ubuntu 9.04 this time i did not do a dual boot. | 05:22 |
|---|
| Ascendancy | Flannel: Ok i'll come back after i've installed ubuntu | 05:22 |
|---|
| ieatnoobs | Haallllpppp..... | 05:22 |
|---|
| Ascendancy | lol wish me luck | 05:22 |
|---|
| dewdude | Ascendancy, i seem to remember at some point with the vista partitioner being able to "move" the partitions/free space blocks around | 05:22 |
|---|
| Ascendancy | dewdude: how do you do it? | 05:22 |
|---|
| Jordan_U | sdtr443w, Ok, what is this recovery CD you were talking about? | 05:22 |
|---|
| unkmar | dewdude: MK131, I have b43 and b43legacy in /lib/firmware | 05:22 |
|---|
| losher | asiks: a common ntfs partition should work fine... | 05:22 |
|---|
| dewdude | Ascendancy, i honestly don't remember | 05:23 |
|---|
| asiks | does ntfs have another name? | 05:23 |
|---|
| acp_ | hi is ltsp included in 9.04 desktop version or in the server edtion? | 05:23 |
|---|
| Ascendancy | haha ok | 05:23 |
|---|
| losher | asiks: don't think so, why? | 05:23 |
|---|
| Ascendancy | thx anyway | 05:23 |
|---|
| asiks | i see ext2-4, fat16, fat32 , jfs, xfs, reiserfs | 05:23 |
|---|
| musikgoat|main | asiks: ntfs-3g | 05:23 |
|---|
| scunizi | acp_: I think you can install it regardless | 05:23 |
|---|
| dewdude | unkmar, you don't put b43 and b43legacy in /lib/firmware. you figure out what driver you're running...and use the cutter to extract the firmware files in to that directory | 05:23 |
|---|
| sdtr443w | Jordan_U: A 9.04 LiveCD | 05:23 |
|---|
| asiks | is one of those aka ntfs? | 05:24 |
|---|
| musikgoat|main | asiks: nvm my statement, thought you were apt-getting stuff | 05:24 |
|---|
| Jordan_U | asiks, Unless you are on the LiveCD you need to install ntfsprogs | 05:24 |
|---|
| musikgoat|main | asiks: no | 05:24 |
|---|
| asiks | I am using the live cd | 05:24 |
|---|
| unkmar | dewdude: the cutter program simply ran. | 05:24 |
|---|
| Jordan_U | sdtr443w, Do you know what a chroot is? | 05:24 |
|---|
| losher | asiks: writable ntfs support is relatively new, I'm not suprised it's not offered. Leave it unallocated and use windows recovery to format it for ntfs later | 05:24 |
|---|
| asiks | that's odd because i made an ntfs partition with ubuntu 8 | 05:25 |
|---|
| kathe | Sound Problem, HP DV5Z, not only one with it, was working 8.04,8.10 not in 9.04 upgrade. ALSA originally did not recognize hardware, did installed module-assistant ALSA now says OK, but no sound any through speakers or headjack still. Noticed the config file was empty, tried adding option for Hp-4 did not work either. Will not work with OSS/ALSA/PULSE, all volumes maxed and unmuted | 05:25 |
|---|
| sdtr443w | Jordan_U: chroot doesn't seem to work. I think the LiveCD is 32-bit but my OS is 64-bit. So I get into trouble when it tries to run bash. | 05:25 |
|---|
| dewdude | unkmar, hold on, i know that page is around somewhere | 05:25 |
|---|
| MK131 | unkmar: do you have broadcom STA driver installed? | 05:25 |
|---|
| asiks | well, the drive had an xp partition on it that i shrunk. I suppose that is a different process | 05:25 |
|---|
| acp_ | scunizi: ya I know but Im bit layz I want during installation it will setup ltsp I remember if you use alternate edition there is a ltsp mode | 05:25 |
|---|
| losher | asiks: using gparted? | 05:25 |
|---|
| asiks | yeah | 05:25 |
|---|
| unkmar | MK131: I don't even know what that is. | 05:25 |
|---|
| Freeyorp | Hello, my system crashed while updating to jaunty and now I can't move the mouse or use the keyboard when booting normally... I can still use the keyboard in recovery mode, but the dpkg option doesn't work as it can't connect to the internet. | 05:26 |
|---|
| Freeyorp | I tried adding the following two lines, auto et0 and iface eth0 inet dhcp to my /etc/network/interfaces file, then ifup eth0 and ifconfig eth0 , but it still hasn't connected properly and I'm at a loss as to what I've done wrong or need to do next... would anyone be able to help me? | 05:26 |
|---|
| asiks | Maybe if i leave it unallocated and then boot from the disk, gparted might be able to set it to that? | 05:26 |

| jinxed | I am interested in trying ubuntu, but i still want to keep windows around for certain programs, so i was hoping to dual boot. I am currently using Vista 64 bit buisness (perhaps the worst permutation but oh well) on a lenovo t400. I need to get a fresh install of windows and ubuntu... Any ideas on how I can do this. ? | 05:26 |
|---|
| unkmar | dewdude: wrong paste. | 05:26 |
|---|
| sdtr443w | Jordan_U: About the only thing I can think of is trying this hacked up xorg.conf. Problem is that it takes me about 10 minutes to boot back in to here with IRC if it doesn't work. | 05:26 |
|---|
| Jordan_U | sdtr443w, Ok, can you just edit your xorg.conf and add: Driver "vesa" To your device section? | 05:26 |
|---|
| MK131 | go to System-> Administration -> Hardware Drivers and see if the STA driver is enabled | 05:26 |
|---|
| unkmar | dewdude: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx/Harhttps://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx/Hardydy | 05:26 |
|---|
| dewdude | unkmar, http://linuxwireless.org/en/users/Drivers/b43 <- that page told me pretty much exactly what to do | 05:26 |
|---|
| Jordan_U | sdtr443w, pastebin the xorg.conf | 05:26 |
|---|
| sdtr443w | Jordan_U: Yes that seems to be about all I can do. Re: pastebin--hold on | 05:27 |
|---|
| dewdude | it told me how to identify what chip i had...which version of what i needed to get and so on. | 05:27 |
|---|
| MK131 | unkmar: go to System-> Administration -> Hardware Drivers and see if the STA driver is enabled | 05:27 |
|---|
| losher | asiks: <surprised>. But you don't need ntfs to install. Just allocate an empty partition and you can try Jordan_U's suggestion later when you have Ubuntu up & running. | 05:27 |
|---|
| leos | 这里有讲中文的吗？ | 05:27 |
|---|
| dewdude | losher, IIRC ntfs now shows up as ntfs-3g | 05:28 |
|---|
| acp_ | jinxed: install windows first then leave a partition for ubuntu | 05:28 |
|---|
| scunizi | !cn | leos | 05:28 |

| ubottu | leos: For Ubuntu help in Chinese 您可以访问中文频道： #ubuntu-cn 或者 #ubuntu-tw 或者 #ubuntu-hk | 05:28 |
|---|
| kathe | jinxed it's not problem, the install will setup a partion for you to dual boot as long as windows is installed first | 05:28 |
|---|
| losher | asiks: btw, which distro are you gonna install? | 05:28 |
