[00:35] sorry my bad adobe flash [00:35] w h y does X - C h a t work s o strange ? is t h i s a f e a t u r e? [00:35] MarkJones: there's a wrapper that'll allow you to run the 32-bit plugin in a 64-bit browser, which is automatically installed when you install flash from the repo ^_^ [00:35] 2Gb ram [00:35] rdawkins: no it won't, unless you tell it to [00:35] S=h=a=r=n=:= =y=o=u= =a=r=e= =d=u=m=b=,= =y=o=u=r= =s=p=a=c=e=s= =c=a=m=e= =b=a=c=k= =b=u=t= =t=h=i=s= =t=i=m=e= =w=i=t=h= =_= [00:35] rdawkins: if you can read you will be ok [00:35] lompfong - I am using konversation [00:35] koshari how do i mount with rad? [00:35] MarkJones: It used to be crappy, but preliminary experience suggests that it's much more stable in jaunty [00:35] I like it a lot better than x-chat [00:35] MarkJones, you don't HAVE to use adobe you know.... [00:35] bruenig, Sharn: cut it out [00:36] b a c k [00:36] rdawkins: one of the guided options will put Ubuntu on the whole hard disk, the other won't, and if you manualley set up partitions yourself, which you have to for Ext4 anyway, you woudn't just delete XP [00:36] sebseb i know now :) [00:36] MarkJones: Also, adobe has released a 64-bit linux flash alpha. So they're going to port it eventually [00:36] s_c_r_e_w_i_t_ _i_ _g_i_v_e_u_p_ [00:36] rdawkins use fstab and the ro switch [00:36] rdawkins: Ok, good, there are a few widgets to work with that, way too many to list here, virtualbox is a popular one and is in the repos, There are also NT/DOS and other readers, tools. [00:36] MarkJones: you can get the beta of adobe's flash player 10 and put it in ~\.mozilla\plugins [00:36] or, rather, finish porting it [00:36] Can anyone tell me how to make a shell script open multiple copies of a terminal on different desktops [00:36] Is there something in teh repos that works as well? [00:36] hi everybody, i wanna ask something concerning ubuntu 9.04 64bit [00:36] Ok ill keep that in mind.good to know [00:36] I've gotten a shell script to work that opens an embedded terminal on startup [00:36] loud-loud: You're not allowed [00:36] rahul, why?

[00:37] MarkJones: adobe provides both 32 and 64 bit flash plugins, but idk if they perform well. (In my experience, neither version of linux flash has good speed) [00:37] SquareHimself> why? [00:37] 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] but I'm on compiz with 4 different desktops and I want my embedded terminal to appear on all 4 of them on startup [00:37] anyone familiar with EnvyNG? upgraded to 9.04 and now get this: The application EnvyNG () crashed and caused the signal 11 (SIGSEGV).

If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) [00:37] vigo: now partitining [00:37] lol thx guys :) [00:37] MarkJones: Yes, but it also installs the 64bit-to-32bit wrapper [00:38] MarkJones: yes, although I don't know what it does on 64 bit ubuntu [00:38] Can someone help? When I turn on skydomes I get a black and white stripes? Is this to do with my graphics driver?

I greatly apreciate it.Thats why I like coming back in my spare time and helping the people that are strating out like I once did.Very good thanks to everyone! [00:39] question: i'm ssh'd into my husband's computer.. and i can see the photo files now.. but 1 i want them on my computer and 2 i want to show them to friends (not the public really) how can i do this? [00:39] um ok well mind telling me where i can get some? i tried a lm channel and there was noone there [00:39] i'm attempting to archive (zip) my /etc file (backing up before a clean install) and i get an error message: zip warning: name not matched: etc (and many others with the names of the various files in /etc). Help? [00:39] guys i have 64 bit edition, i downloaded the driver for the nvidia card 180.44, after that, when i restart the computer, just before it turns off a white and other coloured virtical lines appear on the screen then it powers of then restarts again [00:40] chalcedony, you can copy them over via scp [00:40] chalcedony, sftp [00:40] Guest98606: I think you can just "sudo apt-get install rtl8187se-source" [00:40] 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] later guys! [00:40] ok i've got a sound problem with firefox and adobe flash player (the latest version) [00:40] ohhhhh! i'm an idiot! [00:40] i wonder why beagle isnt in ubuntu-desktop anymore? [00:40] mrwes: i know how to scp files TO him .. how do i reverse it? [00:40] check it's not outputting via optical Smokalotapotamus [00:40] Guest98606: haha, I have that experience about twice an hour :P [00:41] koshari, tracker [00:41] koshari: I think tracker is used instead [00:41] 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] 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] mib_j5qmqywc: yeah there are, see my pm [00:41] thanks mzz, I'll go check that, [00:41] guys i have 64 bit edition, i downloaded the driver for the nvidia card 180.44, after that, when i restart the computer, just before it turns off a white and other coloured virtical lines appear on the screen then it powers of then restarts again [00:41] sheena1: you should not use zip as it does not handle unix permissions... better to use tar + gzip. « tar cvzf etc.tgz etc/ » [00:41] chalcedony: scp remotehost:/path/to/file /local/path [00:41] chalcedony, well you are ssh'd into his [00:41] mzz, said it :) [00:42] sebsebseb: Oh nothing, just adding a FreeBSD to a HDD, primary, I was asked to get back into web page building by a friend, I was going to inter operate between the Lilo and Grub stuff, Ubuntu8.04Server, and FreeBSD, last time I tried it everything went whacko, user error I suppose, that is why I ask now. [00:42] i get a lot of error messages when updating my 8.04 ... anyone know why this might be happening? [00:42] I'm using Ubuntu 9.04 and each time when I try to open a movie in full screen mode (using Totem, MPlayer etc) my system freezes. Anyone have a clue? [00:42] bruenig: try this: /exec -o sed 's/\ //g' <<< "DigitalKiwi: testing" [00:42] erusul: the first part of that made sense to me. but the end bit was over my head. I'll try compressing with a different format? [00:42] here's an example: Err http://security.ubuntu.com gutsy-security/restricted Packages [00:42] 404 Not Found [00:42] chalcedony: (and obviously run that from a local shell, not from a shell running on his system through ssh) [00:42] sheena1: yep [00:42] i also get a lot of: W: Failed to fetch [00:42] while in your chroot [00:42] mzz: guys i have 64 bit edition, i downloaded the driver for the nvidia card 180.44, after that, when i restart the computer, just before it turns off a white and other coloured virtical lines appear on the screen then it powers of then restarts again [00:42] joanki123: gutsy is not supported anymore [00:42] 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 ? [00:42] i'm using 8.04, lstarnes [00:42] sheena1: tar is the native compress file format in unix [00:42] erusul: same error, but no option to view terminal output, so i can't see what the problem is. any other ideas? [00:43] loud-loud: I'm not familiar enough with ubuntu to walk you through reverting to a less broken driver, sorry [00:43] smoking tonight [00:43] DigitalKiwi, He is a troll [00:43] wut [00:43] loud-loud: (ubuntu has some fun xorg.conf fallback tricks I'm not familiar with) [00:43] bruenig: you meanie [00:43] eraserhead: Which version of Ubuntu are you using? (32- or 64-bit, Hardy, Intrepid or Jaunty) [00:43] pipegeek, do you have the cv.h anywhere? [00:43] under "Third-Party Software", how do i know which "Recommended Updates" i should uncheck, lstarnes, they all look thet same to me [00:43] sheena1: « tar cvzf etc.tgz /etc/ » [00:43] it's kubuntu jaunty 32 bits [00:43] Looce: [00:43] thank you mzz :) [00:43] Hm, I'm not familiar with KDE [00:43] erusul: thats a command line code? [00:44] loud-loud: install nvidia-settings and then run it.. that will typically fix a lot of nvidia issues.. you're milage may vary [00:44] sheena1: yep [00:44] pipegeek, i have no ideea how to remove the line numbers in fron of the code [00:44] anyone familiar with EnvyNG? upgraded to 9.04 and now get this: The application EnvyNG () crashed and caused the signal 11 (SIGSEGV). [00:44] cy21: It's probably part of opencv, which is I believe in the repository [00:44] joanki123: make sure nothing in /etc/apt/sources.list references gutsy instead of hardy [00:44] k [00:44] pipegeek, i know.. but i have the above problem [00:44] erusul: where'd it put the .tar file? it worked, whatever it did [00:44] 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] sheena1: current directory [00:44] pipegeek, how to remove the line numbers [00:44] or with the 'cut' utility [00:44] mzz: thx and scunizi i will give it a try thanx a lot [00:44] what is a man-in-th-middle attack? [00:44] pipegeek, http://opencv.sourcearchive.com/documentation/1.0.0/cv_2include_2cv_8h-source.html [00:44] sheena1: if you did it on terminal it should be on your home folder [00:44] Mzz: I only have the headphone switch. I have changed it but there is no effect. should there be more switches in my sound settings? [00:44] pipegeek, cut utility? [00:44] erusul: there is two files there. I'll need both to un-compress later? [00:45] sheena1: Places>home [00:45] Smokalotapotamus: depends heavily on the card. Does the preferences button in volume-control reveal any more switches? [00:45] Smokalotapotamus: (this card has over a dozen switches, but only one of them is checked in preferences by default) [00:45] alright thanks guys let me check my drive now [00:45] sheena1: wich ones ¿? you only need etc.tgz that0s the compressed file with everything in it [00:45] ok, let me check that, thanks MZZ [00:46] erusul: there is also a etc.tar, but that must be from trying to do it from the GUI earlier. Thanks! [00:46] Smokalotapotamus: similarly you may want to enable some more volume control sliders and ramp them up [00:46] wohoo! after couple of hours strugling I fixed my grub so at least windows boots :) [00:46] sheena1: ok [00:46] sheena1: might want to run "tar tf /path/to/etc.tgz" to confirm your files are in there [00:46] it took a couple of hours?

It appears for me only in Xfce [01:00] !ssh [01:00] SSH is the Secure SHell protocol. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SSHHowto for usage. Putty is a nice SSH client for Windows; it can be found at http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/ [01:00] mdadm can not seem to find it after a reboot.

[01:03] hi everybody! how to install all those fancy extra effects? :) [01:03] looce, even with other icons, it still doesn't seem to show icons... [01:03] If I can blacklist the floppy it will boot faster. [01:03] 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 [01:04] oOarthurOo: cut off at "trying to login with" [01:04] But when trying to login with "ssh -p 235 arthur@192.168.0.199" I get the following error: WARNING: REMOTE HOST IDENTIFICATION HAS CHANGED! and it tells me to " Add correct host key in /home/arthur/.ssh/known_hosts to get rid of this message [01:04] mzz thanks [01:04] problem: brasero often segfaults. big problem: nautilus uses brasero and it also segfaults. solution: install nautilus-cd-burner (and thus remove brasero) [01:04] mzz: is there a way to track what files are installed during a make install process? [01:04] oOarthurOo: you may be mixing up the target host with the source host [01:04] oOarthurOo: did you test the SSH without changing all of that stuff? just on the initial install of the ssh server? [01:04] jak wejść na #ubuntu-pl? [01:04] mzz: that way i could nuke the files manually? [01:04] oOarthurOo: removing the conflicting line from ~/.ssh/known_hosts is one way around that message, but only do so if you know the remote key has a reason for changing [01:04] Very strange, after upgrading to 9.04, I no longer have the options for "Lock Screen", etc. and the top toolbar layout is the same as 8.10 ... any suggestions?

I'm having some trouble with samba shares... when I navigate to \\clive\conan in windows it prompts me for username and password then appears to time out after I've enterred it. It works perfectly on linux. Any ideas? [01:05] гапггапгага [01:05] Does anyone have an idea what might be causing Jaunty (Ibex too) to freeze after the unloading bar finishes at shutdown? [01:05] Looce: Don't know what that means, so it's likely. aoirthoir nope. mzz Not sure what you mean by known reason for changing. I just set it up five minutes ago. [01:05] суки гах [01:05] Also, pidgin stopped functioning. [01:06] yay, ubuntu! [01:06] yay! === Guest18378 is now known as mykevelli [01:06] oOarthurOo: the .ssh/known_hosts file is on the host you are SSHing from [01:06] 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] 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? [01:07] oOarthurOo: this is done to prevent you from accidentally giving your password to an attacker who managed to intercept your connection somehow [01:07] QUICK QUESTION: jaunty is ignoring my terminal emulator preference in gnome-default-application-properties. Any ideas how to fix/ a work-around?? [01:07] mzz: Well. I haven't succesfully ssh'd in yet, so not sure what to think of that. [01:07] MZZ i got pastebinit but amixier give me that Couldn't find package amixer [01:07] oOarthurOo: but if you reinstall the system you're ssh-ing into without backing up its host key that fingerprint changes [01:07] installing amarok 1.4, nautilus-cd-burner, bringing back the update notifier icon... now jaunty works almost as well as hardy [01:07] mzz how do you do seconds? [01:07] I note that jaunty obeys my other app prefernces (e.g. browser, email, etc.) [01:07] 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] olivier: "amixer", and you should already have it (it's part of alsa utilities installed by default) [01:07] mzz I only know how to do minutes [01:07] usr13: oh, once every minute is fine [01:07] usr13: sorry, haven't touched crontab in ages [01:08] Will it look for fd0 on reboot or will it learn? [01:08] MZZ do you mean alsa mixer [01:08] mzz: scp is giving me an error .. can you look please? [01:08] olivier: no, I mean the command "amixer" [01:08] chalcedony: sure [01:08] Looce: That's been done. [01:08] oOarthurOo: this has nothing to do with your user's key, it's erroring out before those keys are even exchanged. [01:08] oOarthurOo: this has to do with the host key, which is normally generated when you install the ssh server. [01:08] I guess what I'm asking is... how do I setup an authorized host. [01:09] I want to tell my laptop, this host is cool. Connect to it. [01:09] oOarthurOo: and as long as the server is freshly installed it is safe to just remove the conflicting line from ~/.ssh/known_hosts [01:09] hi, i want to move 100Gigs from ubuntu machine A to ubuntu machine B, both are connected to a 100Mbps router with cables. SSH gets me about 4Megs/sec, thats pretty slow. is there a faster way to do it? thanks! [01:09] mzz you saw my /notice ? [01:09] oOarthurOo: remove all entries in .ssh/known_hosts, that way you'll be asked if you want to connect next time [01:09] chalcedony: no, but looking now [01:09] mzz: touch ~/itworks does not work either. [01:09] mzz: ty :) [01:09] mzz: Its' been over a minute [01:09] MZZ qamix and alsa mixer but no amixer [01:09] chalcedony: (those go to a server window I rarely look at) [01:10] AMDfanboy, nfs [01:10] olivier: sec [01:10] usser: a lot faster? [01:10] mzz: sorry.. not everyone gets notice to the same place [01:10] usr13: anything logged to /var/log/ ? [01:10] Looce: Done. It worked. Oddly it asked me for a password to login, thought I'd disabled that. I can work through this though. Thanks Looce and thanks mzz [01:10] AMDfanboy: SSH encrypts, NFS doesn't. That's going to be less processor overhead. [01:10] AMDfanboy, should get to about 8mb/s [01:10] oOarthurOo: glad for you :) [01:10] oOarthurOo: those are hard to disable completely. I had to edit a file in /etc/pam.d/ to do so. [01:10] hi [01:11] AMDfanboy, i mean if there's nothing wrong with network that is, nfs has almost no overhead [01:11] AMDfanboy: FTP would also work, apt-get install vs-ftpd (server) and filezilla (client) [01:11] alright, which is easier? [01:11] i've had a tough time with nfs before [01:11] I'm having problems regaurding 9,04 compiz [01:11] can anyone help [01:11] MZZ sudo apt-get install amixer (Couldn't find package amixer) [01:11] AMDfanboy: i would strongly recommend against anything other than SFTP unless you have a good deal of experience in these things. [01:11] olivier: yeah, hang on. I'm doing 4 or so things at once [01:11] chalcedony: tab-complete the local paths [01:12] mneptok: AMDfanboy's case is on a LAN, and the server is temporary for a transfer [01:12] mneptok: its that hard? [01:12] mzz nothing in /var/log/messages that looks like it pertains. [01:12] hey guys...

[01:13] mzz thanks [01:13] *negated [01:13] better question is can I even fix it [01:13] Doom: See if you have a graphics driver available in System > Administration > Hardware Drivers [01:13] there's one more thing. the sftp transfer failed twice, in two different places [01:13] ok [01:13] if not, [01:13] !restricted [01:13] For multimedia issues, this page has useful information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats - See also https://help.ubuntu.com/9.04/musicvideophotos/C/video.html - But please use free formats if you can: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeFormats [01:13] olivier: is alsa-utils installed?

[01:14] mzz it alsa mixer [01:14] mzz: Ok there really is something wrong with crontab. Not doing it's job. [01:14] olivier: no, not alsamixer. amixer. [01:14] AMDfanboy dunno, i dont think its very big, check the package size [01:14] AMDfanboy: use rsync over ssh to avoid having to re-transfer files [01:14] Guessing thats bad [01:15] mzz: any luck on that fakeroot page? im looking around... but i dont know what to look for :/ [01:15] Doom what kind of video card do you have? [01:15] whould could cause a crontab failure? [01:15] I honestly don't know [01:15] the computer isn't new at all [01:15] ahh, i was thinking about rsync for this. that way i could keep what moved over before it screwed up. [01:15] 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] mneptoks suggestion is good, [01:15] mzz: i'm ssh'd into that one. it's the exact path .. i thought it was having problems with the file name on my box ? [01:15] I know it was really good when we bought it [01:15] linduxed: thanks for the reminder, looking again now [01:15] AMDfanboy: precisely [01:15] how can i get that to work? i was doing the connect to server thing before [01:15] chalcedony: I suspect you're on the wrong host [01:15] chalcedony: if you're trying to scp from your system to someone elses system, run the scp command on your own system [01:15] Compiz worked for 8.10 [01:16] Doom you might need to open the computer and look at the video card to get further help. get the manufacturer and model number.... [01:16] Doom: run at a terminal: lshw -C display [01:16] ok [01:16] chalcedony: (that is: don't first ssh in, then run the scp command in that ssh shell) [01:16] mzz: i want to get the pictures from his box to mine [01:16] AMDfanboy: rsync -avh -e ssh /path/to/files/to/copy/ user@address:/path/of/destination/ [01:16] Doom Looce has a way for you [01:16] ^_^ [01:16] Thanks guys [01:16] I am not an Ubuntu user, but I was wondering if someone could help me with a research paper I am doing on it either via main chat or pm [01:16] chalcedony: in that case run scp you@hishost:/path/to/pictures /home/you/ [01:16] is there some way to list packages which were installed by me ?

[01:47] Does anyone know why a computer running Jaunty would freeze after the unloading bar during shutdown? [01:47] olivier: odd. [01:47] If I can't get my sound issue fixed, then I'll probably downgrade to 8.10. Completely disappointing.

[01:48] olivier: try with "alsamixer -c 1" [01:48] deb-eater: after the upgrade last night, my system was borked. today i did a fresh install. fortunately i keep /usr and /home on separate partitions, so i didn't lose anything, but so far compiz-fusion is running more slowly, and i can't figure out how the heck to install dev packages. specifically libncurses5-dev [01:48] ext4 did speed things up a bit [01:48] Jordan_U yeah i saw a bunch of bug reports all over google with intel 865 driver... [01:48] Jordan_U: xorg....http://pastebin.com/m55b25ff0 [01:48] FloodBot2 FTW!

I cant install all of that Findxxxxxxx stuff [01:49] Doom you might be better off installing Intrepid Ibex(8.10) the driver might be more stable. [01:49] MZZ all up to red [01:49] perdidopunk: Have you googled for answers [01:49] TopBunny88: yes [01:49] olivier: do you get different sliders in alsamixer if you pass -c 1?

[01:51] DreadKnight: Yes. You can roll back to 2.4 from Intrepid, but keep Jaunty, or you can use the 2.6.30 kernel and associated intel xserver-xorg from Karmic. Or you can be patient and wait for backports. [01:51] Doea any one know how in the world ican get ieseven running under ubuntu? [01:51] TopBunny88: wine? [01:51] MZZ: my realtek on board it work in windows [01:51] X throws errors for me. Please help. http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/158837/ [01:51] olivier: perhaps ask in #alsa then, I'm stumped.

I feel like my speakers got even quieter after the upgrade. I thought JJ might solve it. [01:54] progre55: the two oldest, and with Synaptic [01:54] AK_Dave: cheers [01:54] Looce, thanks man [01:54] progre55: filter by "Installed", type 'lin' in the main area, then right-click and choose "Mark for complete removal" [01:54] I am frustrated as all hell, how do I remove all the audio options in system>preferences>sound so that I can start fresh? [01:55] Doom did you see AK_Dave links above. might help you with your 865 driver problem. [01:55] Jordan_U: did u got my pastebins? [01:55] 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. [01:56] can anyone help me with my indicator-applet [01:56] X throws errors for me. Please help. http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/158837/ [01:56] maxxist: whois Doom? [01:57] 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] hey [01:57] 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] Smokalotapotamus: have you tried ~/.gconf/desktop/gnome/sound [01:57] 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] what is the best agp 4x video card i can get to use for compiz effects, etc [01:57] AK_Dave: yep, can't wait until linux or distros will be less retarted like this rolling crapware [01:58] my geforce4 is agp 8x and wont fit in the mobo :( [01:58] h8red: i would say a older nvidia gforce series [01:58] MZZ : on this http://pastebin.com/f7b028d87 does this tell that my intel is on and the other off [01:58] 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] AK_Dave haha. yes you are correct he is gone now. i should have looked. [01:58] DreadKnight: Then don't use Linux. Or stick with Hardy. [01:58] anyone know why video players like xine or mplayer grind X to a halt when using Nvidia's drivers? [01:58] AK_Dave: those have their issues as well... oh well, hope 9.10 will be kick ass [01:58] olivier: that just tells me you have two cards (and what order they got detected in) [01:58] jkroll: i had a geforce 2 mx, but it wasn't that great [01:58] what about one of those ATI 128 meg deal [01:59] deals [01:59] It appears the fluxbuntu 7.10 sources vanished. Would it be safe for me to replace my sources.list with one from ubuntu, either 7.10 or 8.04 ? [01:59] AK_Dave: but linux update regressions are annoying [01:59] whats the command to install KDE on ubuntu ? [01:59] MZZ : ok thx [01:59] event: you can sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop :P [01:59] event: install kubuntu-desktop [01:59] h8red: i haven't followed ATI's drivers as of late, I wouldn't be a great one to ask since my voice is very one sided :P [01:59] DreadKnight i think it does kickass already. hehe. [01:59] Guys i need help connecting wired in ubuntu 9.04? [01:59] ^^ brb... restarting x === Hunter is now known as Guest78607 [01:59] guys i need help with my indicator applet? :D [02:00] DreadKnight: I don't qualify your problem as a regression. Jaunty took a huge step forward in terms of Xorg, and closed source video drivers have not yet caught up. [02:00] Hi! I have a file that is one long line of text [02:00] thanks [02:00] I have an ubuntu guest which ifconfig tells me is on 10.0.2.15. When I try to connect http:10.0.2.15/webadmin.nsf it doesn't work. [02:00] Any way to automatically truncate the liness? [02:00] in the Xorg.conf. I have "Configured Video Device" where is that setting? [02:00] there's an ATI 128 meg AGP 8x backwards compatible with 4x [02:00] h8red: the open ati drivers are improving, the closed drivers are dropping support for cards supported by the open drivers (and older versions of the closed driver don't work with newer versions of xorg-server) [02:00] can anyone help me with my indicator-applet? [02:01] I get an error "Though the site seems valid, the browser was unable to establish a connection." [02:01] What am I doing wrong? [02:01] mzz are the open ati driver easily installable from the repos? [02:01] h8red: I'm still pretty happy with my old-ish r300 (9600 xt) card [02:01] h8red: you get the open ones by default on most distros [02:01] How do I remove my audio drivers? I have multiple versions of the same driver showing up in System>Preferences>Sound [02:01] The guest is in virtualbox. [02:01] mzz: h8red: unfortunately, the open source ATI drivers don't allow suspend/hibernate. At least in some cases. [02:01] h8red: this 9600xt just works out of the box and supports most but not all compiz effects [02:01] AK_Dave: works for me [02:01] mzz: i think it's my dyslexia but i'm sure not figuring out the scp .. i tried someone els's advise and it just isn't working. [02:02] AK_Dave: (haven't tried it in ubuntu yet, works in gentoo) [02:02] MZZ : can this help!?! http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php/TroubleShooting#The_main_channels_are_unmuted_and_non_zero_volume.2C_but_not_sound [02:02] weird, i found the dev packages in the list, but i can't search for them... [02:02] mzz: Not for me. :( [02:02] oh well [02:02] later all [02:02] olivier: sorry, I'm really trying to stop ircing and do something else [02:02] olivier: ask the channel please [02:02] guys i install kubuntu on ubuntu and now i remove kubuntu because i dont like, but in momment i have kubuntu apps on gnome, how i can remove this? [02:02] how do i tune my computer for best performance i'm new to ubuntu in windows there was something u just click for best performance???? [02:02] alright [02:02] mzz: Well, haven't tried it in Gentoo. Doesn't work in Ubuntu. :) [02:02] wht about a ATI 9250? [02:03] I can get one of those cheaply [02:03] How do I allow multiple users to be able to connect to our wireless network? If I log in as another user, they do not have the network applet [02:03] ATI 9250 128 meg, agp 8x, backward compatible w/ 4x, which is what i need... 4x [02:03] mzz: http://paste.ubuntu.com/158924/ [02:03] psychic: If you want "click for best performance" then maybe disable compiz desktop effects. [02:03] chalcedony: I'm sorry to hear it. In everything you pastebinned you simply had the paths backwards [02:03] how? [02:03] is that only in 9.04 AK_Dave [02:03] ? [02:03] psychic: But other than that, short answer is "no, Linux is not Windows" [02:04] i know [02:04] chalcedony: you need a destination to copy to (try "scp -r chull@192.168.3.41:Desktop/Picture/Kodak_Z612/2009_Z612/2009-04/2009-04-26 ~") [02:04] should kvm-img snapshot -c take hours to run on an 8GB image? I'm kind of surprised [02:04] guys i install kubuntu on ubuntu and now i remove kubuntu because i dont like, but in momment i have kubuntu apps on gnome, how i can remove this? [02:04] psychic: Rclick your desktop, go to Change Background, go to LAST tab, and click NONE [02:04] can someone tell me if the ATI 9250 is supported in Ubuntu....or give me a link where I can check myself? [02:04] I am using an Ubuntu machine to handle my evolution mail; I've been successful in setting up my gmail account so it is fowarded to my Evolution account. I have one account remaining -- I' using squirrel mail to receive that mail. Does anyone know how to point squirrel mail to evolution? [02:04] h8red: almost certainly is supported, I have no idea offhand how much of compiz will work with it [02:05] psychic: you mean like tuning then interface down and such? [02:05] psychic: That is probably the closest thing to the garbage that Windows claims is "best performance". [02:05] h8red: see "man radeon" [02:05] Can anyone help me? I am using vlc 0.99 on ubuntu 9.04, and the text looks corrupted on every part of the program: http://i43.tinypic.com/o8wklt.png [02:05] AK_Dave i once stumbled across somthing that had a list of things i would use my computer for one was like multimedia another option was server and stuff like that, how do i get back there [02:05] ? [02:05] will the netbook remix img also install on a desktop machine? perhaps after writing it to a usb stick (but that is not imparitive)? [02:05] well i got the cube working with my measly geforce 2 mx, so i'm sure a 128 meg radeon would be an improvement [02:05] scunizi: yes [02:05] druke yes [02:05] i thnk [02:05] help plz [02:05] guys i install kubuntu on ubuntu and now i remove kubuntu because i dont like, but in momment i have kubuntu apps on gnome, how i can remove this? [02:05] psychic: don't know what you're referring to [02:06] mzz: YES !!!!! [02:06] mzz: YES !!!!! [02:06] YIPPIE :) [02:06] chalcedony: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. [02:06] hmm [02:06] AK_Dave: do you know if the img file is recognizable in vbox like an iso would be to create a vm? [02:06] event: http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/puregnome [02:06] chalcedony: would you prefer a gui, perhaps? [02:06] anyone nvidia, change from gpu-0 to gpu-1. either through nvidia-settings or xorg.conf? How do I do this? [02:06] scunizi: I don't know. Just install desktop Jaunty and then 'sudo apt-get install ubuntu-netbook-remix' to install the UNR metapackage. [02:07] psychic: to duplicate that form of "best performance" right click on the desktop (like changing your wallpaper), in the visual effects check none. [02:07] guys i have problem converting img file to iso using ccd2iso i got unrecognized sector mode (0) at sector 0! can anyone help me please [02:07] have 7.10 files been dropped? [02:07] mzz: guis don't work for me...

I haven't ventured to install 9.04 as yet. [02:07] thus the vbox question [02:07] druke i already have i think it worked better b4 i upgrade to the new buntu 9.04.. [02:08] How do I allow multiple users to be able to connect to our wireless network? If I log in as another user, they do not have the network applet [02:08] scunizi: Well, the UNR metapackage exists to bolt UNR onto a desktop install. Works very well. [02:08] how about swap can i add another swap part? [02:08] chalcedony: if you have a sufficiently fancy shell you can tab-complete most of those paths [02:08] i already have one [02:08] chalcedony: I don't think that's enabled by default on ubuntu though. [02:08] Can anyone help me? I am using vlc 0.99 on ubuntu 9.04, and the text looks corrupted on every part of the program: http://i43.tinypic.com/o8wklt.png [02:08] AK_Dave: and is it selectable as a session? [02:08] scunizi: But do disable compiz before installing. [02:08] !vlc [02:08] Audio (Ogg, MP3...) players: Audacious, Banshee, Beep Media Player, Listen, Quod Libet, Rhythmbox, Exaile, XMMS2 (GTK/Gnome based) and Amarok, JuK (Qt/KDE based). Video players: Totem, Xine, MPlayer, VLC, Kaffeine - See also !codecs [02:08] mzz: I wouldn't consider bash to be fancy :) [02:08] actualy i'm starting to think i have some malware or somthing thats messing with files is there a virus scanner for ubuntu [02:08] ? [02:08] chalcedony: oh, and it needs you to be able to log in without prompts (public key authentication, ssh-agent) [02:09] has anyone notice this. it seems like with the jaunty release I am getting slower frame rates. Like there is an issue with how the screen renders [02:09] need help with sound i got none !!!! everything seem to work but no sounds!!! [02:09] Looce: zsh can do it, I think bash can do it with some poking [02:09] is there a way to get RocketFish bluefish dongles to work in Ubuntu?,works just fine in Vista [02:09] psychic: sorry to hear that [02:09] mzz: this worked for me thank you very much :) [02:09] scunizi: It is not seperate window manager, so no. But it does include a desktop switcher if you want to go back and forth with standard gnome. [02:09] ok im going to get an ati listed in man radeon [02:09] to be sure i have driver support for compiz [02:09] can i upgrade from 7.10 to this new one right away... or do i need a stairmaster you think? [02:09] AK_Dave: now that is interesting [02:09] druke is that a no theres no such software? [02:09] ? [02:09] Looce: and I did say "sufficiently fancy", not plain fancy :P [02:09] AK_Dave: thanks [02:10] Hehe [02:10] h8red: that's not the same thing [02:10] hey anyone ever figure out how to get the HP pavilion dv5t to laptop to resume from a suspend??? [02:10] I also reinstalled vlc w/ apt-get purge and apt-get install but no dice [02:10] h8red: if it's in "man radeon" you'll get at least 2d support, but compiz won't necessarily work properly. Check with the folks in #compiz too [02:10] or was it #compiz-fusion? I forgot [02:10] oh [02:10] psychic: that is correct, there is no automated "ubuntu" tune up application. (there really is no such thing) [02:11] X throws errors for me. Please help. http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/158837/ [02:11] hey anyone ever figure out how to get the HP pavilion dv5t to laptop to resume from a suspend??? [02:11] psychic: there's clamav to scan for viruses, although I don't know how many linux ones that catches [02:11] mzz: radeon gives me 3D with this Radeon Xpress 200M, but I cannot suspend/hibernate. So the radeon driver does allow 3D, but its a huge "YMMV" thing. [02:11] clamav is mainly intended for mail servers and the such [02:11] is there a way to get RocketFish bluefish dongles to work in Ubuntu?,works just fine in Vista [02:11] Can anyone help me?

[02:12] what's ccd2iso [02:12] psychic: No actually, sounds like the ubuntu server install disc, but I am not sure [02:12] aa28 i dont remember, but its not for image files i don think [02:12] aa28: converts images from clonecd's format to standard iso format you can mount [02:12] what is the command to upgrade my server to 9.04? [02:13] hmm [02:13] storrgie: sudo update-manager -d [02:13] sudo apt-get install update-manager-core && sudo do-release-upgrade [02:13] is there any difference between 8.10 and 9.04?

What is "Configured Video Device" in the xorg.conf file? [02:14] good mp3 player? [02:14] Anyone know if there's a simple way to get USB going in a VirtualBox XP install under 9.04? [02:14] why ubuntu can't find img2iso? package [02:14] good mp3 player? [02:15] HybridZero: Simple? Use Sun's PUEL [02:15] blbrown what are u trying to do [02:15] ? === nick is now known as Guest11147 [02:15] HybridZero, Sun's vbox or the one in repos? [02:15] HybridZero: You won't have full USB support in the OSE of Virtualbox. [02:15] The version in the repositories. [02:15] OSE or whatever. [02:15] my sound card isn't physically installed in my computer [02:15] if using suns virtualbox you have to be in vboxs group for USB [02:15] HybridZero: the repo version doesn't support usb [02:15] hello. [02:16] psychic, I have two graphics card and either through xorg.conf or through the nvidia-settings change to the second graphics card (in nvidia, it shows up as gpu-1) [02:16] All I'm trying to do is get my iPod going in the XP VM so I can manage it with iTunes. [02:16] hey, how can i get firefox to go back via backspace in ubuntu? [02:16] I bought a dell xps m1530 with ubuntu in it [02:16] blbrown: the driver is "nvidia" [02:16] can i just install the new ubuntu on here? [02:16] HybridZero, then get the one from virtualbox's site [02:16] blbrown, http://paste.ubuntu.com/158933/ [02:16] 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] druke that is the driver but not the device [02:16] tfrew: Which version are you upgrading from? [02:17] X throws errors for me. Please help. http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/158837/ [02:17] good mp3 player? [02:17] Okay, thanks eseven73 and AK_Dave [02:17] HybridZero: iPod? iTunes? You cannot do that with the OSE version. Not. Possible. [02:17] Brando753, google has the answer to that one.

[02:17] my sound card is not recongnized [02:17] HybridZero: You must apt-get remove virtualbox and then install from www.virtualbox.org [02:17] !universe | aa28 [02:17] 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] sound card isn't recongnized [02:18] HybridZero: Also, when you install the PUEL make sure you do it from the commandline. Trust me. [02:18] aa28: are you trying to burn the .img file for the netbook remix? [02:18] so I seem to have semi-melted one of my laptops by trying to upgrade to Jaunty [02:18] Yondering, why is mine so basic. http://paste.ubuntu.com/158935/ [02:18] what can I do? [02:18] Looce: i want to install fresh to get ext4 [02:18] but i don't know what things dell has change [02:18] it isn't physically installed [02:18] AK_Dave: Thanks, I'll give it a try :) [02:18] somone told me the dell ubuntu has special changes [02:18] i wanted the system to be faster [02:18] yes [02:18] tfrew: Yes, it is compiled for lpia architecture. [02:18] i am [02:18] :) [02:18] blbrown, it looks to me like your video server didn't complete installing. First guess. [02:18] and my friend said to install with ext4 [02:18] is there a way to list/script installed packages/application so that I can easily reinstall them on a fresh ubuntu install ? [02:18] lpia? [02:18] aa28: you want to put it on a usb stick? [02:19] HybridZero, also for me, I had to be in vbox's group for USB [02:19] d [02:19] Yondering, how could it work then? e.g. I am using it now [02:19] no to burn it on dvd r [02:19] tfrew: there aren't ubuntu optimizations specially for dell machines. [02:19] 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] is it possible to try and get my machine to upgrade again? [02:19] 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] how do I know if my sound card is supported [02:19] PlasmaSheep: Yes, there is. For the Atom architecture. :) [02:19] PlasmaSheep: Also a special Ubuntu for HP netbooks. :) [02:19] is there dell driver's or somthing for 9.04 [02:19] AK_Dave: the atom architecture is not used exclusively in dell machines. [02:19] AK_Dave: HP is not dell. [02:20] 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] AK_Dave: And could you please show me the special hp ubuntu? [02:20] !clone | hipitihop [02:20] 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] blbrown, I'm not sure tbh, but I used the nvidia-settings tool to generate this one. (I saved it to my home directory and copied it to /etc/X11 manually.) [02:20] hey anyone ever figure out how to get the HP pavilion dv5t to laptop to resume from a suspend??? [02:20] PlasmaSheep: True, but there is a variant of Hardy for Dell and there is a variant of Hardy for HP. :P [02:20] 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] AK_Dave: wherE? [02:20] PlasmaSheep: Where are the repos, or where is the iso? [02:20] it can't find it anywhere in ubuntu 8.04 lts [02:21] img2iso [02:21] AK_Dave: Where is the ISO. And I don't think he's asking about hardy anyway. [02:21] yay, wireless is working. now...anyone know how to mount a nfs share? i tried doing mount ip:share but i got errors [02:21] Jordan_U: cool, thanks [02:21] 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] hipitihop, np [02:22] * kbfz smile [02:22] PlasmaSheep: There is a Atom iso of Jaunty available from Canonical. Its now called the MID edition. [02:22] AK_Dave: you can get it from the ubuntu torrent page [02:22] can anyone tell me where to get img2iso package please [02:22] im looking for a good program that can encode video files so that i can play them on my mobile phone (samsung memoir). any software suggestions [02:22] danbhfive: if its a torrent, it is probably tracked on thepiratebay :) [02:22] Yondering, here is the nvidia settings.

[02:23] 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] 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] X throws errors for me. Please help. http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/158837/ [02:23] PlasmaSheep: Unofficial? No, they're quite official. [02:23] hipitihop, No [02:24] "Not sanctioned by Canonical" might be better than "unofficial" [02:24] AK_Dave: They aren't official by canonical, if dell and hp make them. [02:24] Jordan_U: so I guess take a copy of source.list too [02:24] 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] hipitihop, Yes [02:24] PlasmaSheep: They're supported Hardy LTS releases. [02:24] anybody [02:24] blbrown, I'm not exactly sure, I'm afraid. [02:24] AK_Dave: Are they endorsed by canonical? Are they linked to from ubuntu.com? [02:25] PlasmaSheep: Do I care? Does it matter? No, and no. [02:25] unofficial usually means completely community supported, like the ps3 version of ubuntu [02:25] AK_Dave: Ah, if the answers to my questions are no, then they are not official. [02:25] Jordan_U: since I have your attention... I have taken a tar of my home dir, and now will do as you suggested. Is there anything else I should backup to complete the migration ?

They ARE supported. [02:26] How do I remove my sound drivers from System>Preferences>Sound? [02:26] PlasmaSheep: which version [02:26] scunizi: version? [02:27] AK_Dave: supported by who?

I upgraded to jaunty, I now I can't do anything with proprietary drivers [02:27] scunizi: not certain. How could I check? [02:27] I accidentally installed the freeware flash plugin for firefox. How do I uninstall it now? [02:27] check and say if you see something else than something like "it works" [02:27] show me the way to the German Chat xD [02:27] How do I remove my sound drivers from System>Preferences>Sound? I have repeats of the same driver (ALSA, OSS, etc) and my volume is really low. [02:27] AK_Dave: the community, [02:27] danbhfive: Again, iso or repo?

Was missing a -i flag for grep. [02:27] AK_Dave: specifically #ubuntu and the ubuntu forums. [02:27] PlasmaSheep: use lspci in a terminal or sudo lshw.. although the latter will give you WAY more info than you need [02:27] furythor: your freshly installed drupal site, yeah [02:28] Jordan_U: I have an existing laptop with 8.10 that has been upgraded probably since hardy or earlier. Time for a clean install to 9.04 [02:28] AK_Dave: whatever. the webpage? [02:28] aa28: Can you just install the desktop iso and then apt-get install ubuntu-netbook-remix later? [02:28] As I'm upgrading to 9.04 I get this message, "This computer is currently using the AMD 'fglrx' graphics driver. No version of this driver is available that works with your hardware in Ubuntu 9.04." Can I still use the drivers from 8.10 if I continue to use the 8.10 kernel rather than the 9.04 kernel?

[02:28] sound card isn't recongnized [02:28] traskbt: not really. Its an xorg issue [02:28] traskbt: The problem lies not with the kernel in use, but the Ubuntu package repository you're using [02:28] well i want to install on my brother notebook [02:29] danbhfive: Its nothing I've ever bookmarked, so I don't have anything of the sort handy for you.

I tried sudo apt-cache search glib |grep 2.6 [02:30] so should I just add forwarders?? [02:30] Looce: how can I add forwarders then?? [02:30] plato-bu: Keep using the 8.10 repositories until the issues are resolved [02:31] c0l2e: Yes, and with the forwarders directive in bind.conf, respectively [02:31] 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] Looce: is there a simple way to downgrade back to Intrepid, then? [02:31] forwarders { 10.5.17.23; } [02:31] scunizi: The last time I had this problem was that there was something weird in xorg.conf.

[02:32] AK_Dave: it looks like there isn't special dell distribution. Canonical just has extra support for dells with the regular version of Ubuntu. === James is now known as Aeosynth [02:32] AK_Dave: told you? [02:32] plato-bu: The release notes are there to be read before installations, not after. And upgrading to a lower version would leave all packages at the higher version level, because of the way "apt" does package reinstallation [02:32] is there a way to image a partition? [02:32] mattgyver: man dd [02:32] Thank you [02:32] ubottu: So the system is hosed until a fresh reinstall or the drivers are updated?

[02:33] PlasmaSheep: Told me what? [02:33] Jordan_U: makes sense, not just replicating same version to another machine. It would still be nice to have a list of installed ones to then selectively choose in new install [02:33] thanks danbhfive [02:33] AK_Dave: That there isn't a special dell ubuntu version. [02:33] m0u5e: sudo ifdown eth0; sudo ifup eth0 :) none that I know that doesn't break the connection, however [02:33] PlasmaSheep: the other solution would be to look in synaptic and see if the appropriate driver is installed then check xorg.conf and add the driver line with intel in it [02:33] danbhfive: Here's a how-to link http://www.ehow.com/how_4723284_install-dell-ubuntu-netbook-remix.html [02:33] Looce: o_O; [02:33] scunizi: Can this be done sans recovery mode?

[02:42] cant skip on non LTS [02:42] meoblast001, It is not supported and probably will fail wondrously if you try :) [02:42] hm, do linux have something equilant to Active Directory?

[02:43] meoblast001, Look into transitional packages and such issues [02:43] scunizi: Rebooting into recovery mode. [02:44] frankS2: 1. Linux is not Windows 2.

I find that hard to believe [02:44] LDAP == Lightweight Directory Access Protocol [02:44] i need to get info on a rouge X window which keeps popping up, who its parents are [02:44] frankS2, https://oss.gonicus.de/labs/gosa [02:44] plato-bu: I don't think booting from the old kernel will use the old drivers; the modules are loaded from a specific place irregardless of kernel version [02:44] Hello all, I am trying to setup a ubuntu laptop for an 11 yr old, is there a app that will block porn sites and other sites that an 11 yr old should not be visiting? [02:45] anyone know a network packet sniffer? [02:45] mib_q3039e3x: tcpdump [02:45] meoblast001, it is a little more complicated than simply installing new packages. Skipping has not been supported except for (I think) 6.10 - 8.04 [02:45] frankS2, AD is built upon LDAP (amongst other things) tho [02:45] mib_q3039e3x: ethereal (now wireshark) [02:45] unop: ok [02:45] jdu: i'll just find a way to compile gnash [02:45] ax57: there's always a way to again around it.

[02:48] 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. === mike is now known as Guest81002 [02:48] ax57: maybe do a search for dan's guardian [02:48] :( [02:48] Looce: thanks, I will check out adblock for firefox [02:48] AK_Dave, so why it work in vista?

[02:48] think I trashed it with envyNG [02:48] danbhfive: I will check it out now thanks [02:48] billybigrigger, you can set deluge to be the default application in firefox's applications tho. [02:48] 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] unop, no i can't [02:49] scunizi: Nope. [02:49] ltgg: sounds likely, but all damage is fixable [02:49] unop, i can't see any filetypes associated with bitttorrent === Guest81002 is now known as Harpoon_ [02:49] AK_Dave, yeah that makes sense but, I would think Ubuntu would have a driver by now [02:49] no?

You could have gotten it from newegg or someplace that doesn't rip you off [02:51] you're* [02:51] ltgg: no, 'glxinfo | grep renderer', what does that say? [02:51] just download it..

[02:53] guys i want to burn ubuntu-9.04-netbook-remix-i386.img how can i do it? i want to burn it on dvd-r and to install the system on the laptop can someone help me please [02:53] * crdlb pats the floodbot [02:53] felixsulla: It runs on my Aspire 4520 just fine [02:53] ax57: Yes, everyone does. People know people can be killed, but that doesn't make it ok to do so. [02:53] google for "unetbootin" Amer28 [02:54] Smerky, i downloaded a torrent yes, ff still doesnt show it [02:54] Whats going on and who is floodbot?? [02:54] felixsulla, a lot of people use thinkpads here. They need to be > t2? [02:54] amer28 burn it and reboot it [02:54] ltgg: only one of those would have been plenty, since they're all identical ... [02:54] Amer28: Try this: install the desktop i386 and then sudo apt-get install ubuntu-netbook-remix [02:54] PlasmaSheep: I got my copy of ubuntu off of mininova [02:54] AK_Dave, that's a good idea actually, but I really don't like having to use Virtualbox just for one thing, but I suppose there's not much choice, thanks for the info. [02:54] not all torrents are illegal [02:54] you can just download ubuntu from the ubuntu site.. === Blizzerand is now known as Blizzerand__ [02:54] jdu: I have an SL300 but I guess they aren't "real" thinkpads, different architechture [02:54] billybigrigger: You have to go to the prefrences and choose which application to open it in. [02:54] ax57: I never said all torrents were illegal. [02:54] 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] 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] yeah, but its slower off the ubuntu site [02:54] nope toshiba satellite A205 [02:54] ax57: I myself downloaded ubuntu from a torrent. [02:55] !offtopic [02:55] #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics. Thanks! [02:55] plus uses ubuntus bandwidth [02:55] what's netmix-remix anyway new system for laptops? [02:55] 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] I downloaded Jaunty Beta from a torrent as well, but redownloaded the Release and got a CD from shipit [02:55] i order from ubuntu site [02:55] 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] 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] Amer28: It's optimized for weaker hardware. [02:55] crdlb: http://paste.ubuntu.com/158963/ [02:55] maximumbob, did you not install with the proper modmap? [02:55] Amer28: its for netbooks. basically laptops with very small screens [02:55] someone I need help [02:55] 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] billybigrigger: Go try to do the same thing in openBSD and tell me what you think. [02:55] !any | Linuz2009 [02:55] Sorry, I don't know anything about any [02:56] !ask | Linuz2009 [02:56] 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] what's ur problem? [02:56] sorry. :P [02:56] sorry if someone already replied to this: how can I bind shortcuts that are not in Keybaord Shortuts? [02:56] Looce beat me to it. :O [02:56] my sound card isn't recongnized [02:56] by my hardware [02:56] 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] what's unetbootin anyway [02:56] 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] Linuz2009: what sound card? [02:56] daftykins: "Proper" modmap? My .Xmodmap just remaps the internet 'forward','back' keys to page up and page down... [02:56] Smerky, last time i checked ubuntu wasn't bsd [02:56] a built in sound card intel8x0 [02:56] !netbookremix | Amer28 [02:56] crdlb: how do I know if xserver-xorg-video-ati is installed? [02:56] Sorry, I don't know anything about netbookremix [02:56] Amer28: What netbook do you want this on? [02:56] kholerabb1: you can click on Add to map a 'name' to a custom command to start whatever you want [02:56] !netbook | Amer28 [02:56] Sorry, I don't know anything about netbook [02:56] 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. [02:57] interesting [02:57] sony laptop [02:57] !NBR [02:57] Sorry, I don't know anything about NBR [02:57] maybe you can download the sound driver [02:57] ltgg: you can check in synaptic, or with 'apt-cache policy xserver-xorg-video-ati' if you'd prefer [02:57] Amer28: Sony makes a lot of laptops. What size is the screen? [02:57] ok nevermind maximumbob i have no idea what you mean. [02:57] 17'' screen [02:57] amer28 that's a big screen [02:57] Amer28: UNR is designed for 9-10" screens. [02:57] daftykins: It's for remapping keys [02:57] 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] typed in lspci -v | less and it doesn't list audio device [02:57] !UNR [02:57] Sorry, I don't know anything about UNR [02:57] 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] oo so should i install regular ubuntu then? [02:58] maximumbob, actually you can just add it to your ~/.bashrc so it runs on every login [02:58] Amer28: yes [02:58] maximumbob, you might also do somewhat of a hack by adding xmodmap commands to some other script like .xsession [02:58] Smerky, turns off alot of new users though [02:58] don't know what to do/ [02:58] amer28 yes, install the ubuntu 9.04 [02:58] billybigrigger: THen they should go use macs [02:58] 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] Smerky, i agree with you about not making things too easy, but somethings should just be there you know what i mean? [02:58] :P [02:58] need help with my sound card not being recongnized [02:58] should i install 9.04 or 8.04 [02:58] looc: :D missed that thanks you [02:58] 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] 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] 9.04 [02:58] Amer28: make sure your ubuntu has all the new updates as well [02:58] running jaunty [02:58] Amer28: if it was me i would say 9.04 [02:59] any help would be useful [02:59] ok [02:59] hello? [02:59] billybigrigger: Yes yes, it is true. We should prabably stop this since it's off topic now. :P [02:59] Opengl is slow for me. Please help. [02:59] thanks guys [02:59] 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] Smerky, agreed [02:59] Linux > Mac [02:59] billybigrigger: But sometimes its the right answer. :) [02:59] billybigrigger: i agree [02:59] asd [02:59] mikeshollen: because its looking at all the mounted devices [02:59] with Linux you should get used to things not being all handed to you maximumbob ;) [02:59] I want to know how to fix this problem [02:59] any body help/ [02:59] anybody? [03:00] AK_Dave, haha point taken [03:00] hello guys, quick question, what is the image called u see on shutdown and start up? [03:00] billybigrigger: Nope. But they are easy, aren't they? Well that's what they say. Also over priced hardware. :P [03:00] need help with my sound. [03:00] pastebin your "lspci" output so somebody knows what your wireless card is Linuz2009 [03:00] Linuz2009 what [03:00] CodyT07, splash screen [03:00] Smerky, couldn't tell ya, i've never touched a mac [03:00] Linuz2009: make sure your ubuntu is updated [03:00] s/wireless/sound/ [03:00] yes it is. === h8red is now known as BIZZAROh8red [03:00] 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] Linux > UNIX > NT.. Heh [03:00] Just adding my two cents. [03:00] many thanks [03:00] maximumbob: Did you read the release notes before upgrading? [03:00] be interesting to see how a proper fresh install works maximumbob [03:01] Linuz2009: is it a nvidia sound card? you can get the newest drivers from there site, instead of useing ubuntus drivers [03:01] daftykins: might do it sometime this summer [03:01] no its an intel 8x0 sound card [03:01] AK_Dave: Not everything [03:01] linux > unix > typewriter > NT * [03:01] crdlb: get this: -bash: /var/log/Xorg.0.log: Permission denied [03:01] Does ubuntu have something like rpm-based distro's "yum groupinstall"? E.g. some easy way to get all the xfce packages? [03:02] CuriosTiger, apt-get [03:02] Opengl is slow for me. Please help. [03:02] ltgg: it's not a command, it's just a file, which you can open in a text editor [03:02] System > Preferences > Sound make sure your card is default [03:02] l [03:02] how do I paste bin my info? [03:02] CuriosTiger: tasksel [03:02] CuriosTiger, apt-get install xubuntu-desktop [03:02] CuriosTiger, sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop I believe [03:02] !pb | Linuz2009 [03:02] 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] I got my computer info [03:02] CuriosTiger: install xubuntu-desktop [03:02] 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] CuriosTiger: Look at alien [03:02] maximumbob: I wonder if your problem has something to do with the new version of X in Jaunty. [03:02] Looce: on a roll today :p [03:02] jdu: Thanks. And is there a way to see the list of available groups? [03:02] PlasmaSheep: yeah :p [03:02] how do I determine which version of ubuntu I am running? [03:02] CuriosTiger, "sudo apt-get install xfce4" [03:02] unkmar: lsb_release -a [03:02] ltgg: also, you can install 'pastebinit' and run 'pastebinit /var/log/Xorg.0.log' which will do it for you [03:02] PlasmaSheep: I must admit I've read some of the "ubottu tidbit list" [03:03] Looce: and type fast :P [03:03] ~70 WPM, but that's a bit off-topic now :) [03:03] 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] HEH [03:03] *heh [03:03] I'll just add an entry to "Sessions" for now [03:03] Opengl is slow for me. Please help. [03:03] 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] ak_dave: Vmware wasn't very happy with Jaunty [03:03] in 8.10 should there be a connect to server under places [03:03] 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... [03:04] Curios [03:04] DIL: yes [03:04] 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] CuriosTiger: I don't know anything about VMware. [03:04] Does Vmware work with other versions? [03:04] CodyT07: It's impossible for it to actually BE higher, so it's just you/ [03:04] which VMware did you try and install CuriosTiger [03:04] tictac: Yes. 8.10 is fine now. [03:04] DIL: Yes, it is there by default. [03:04] Ah "Sessions" has become "Startup Applications" [03:04] ty [03:04] nvidia driver reports 1440 by 900 and KDE shows normal. Though the splash screen is super small now [03:04] I will reinstall then [03:04] lol [03:04] daftykins: Workstation 6.5.2, Fusion 2.0.3 [03:04] it is on mine [03:04] 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] it is NOT on mine [03:04] Opengl is slow for me. Please help. [03:05] !repeat | PlasmaSheep [03:05] 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] 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] oops, didn't notice how fast I repeated. [03:05] kinection, you can switch the screen resolution [03:05] 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] yes [03:06] kinection, you can force 'vesa' mode in your xorg.conf to regain a working desktop [03:06] Looce: what's the story with MsFrizzle? [03:06] kinection: I'm seeing similar issues. The Display app works sometimes and sometimes not. HD4870 here [03:06] MsFrizzle: test [03:06] OKAY. here's the URL, http://paste.ubuntu.com/158971/ [03:06] tritium: It would be rather off-topic... [03:06] what graphics akincer [03:06] Looce: bot? [03:06] vigo, et al OK so if it is not there how can i place connect to server back under places [03:06] also it has no triggers at all [03:06] 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] please review the infomation [03:06] ATI HD4870 [03:07] for those who responded [03:07] crdlb: http://paste.ubuntu.com/158972/ [03:07] yes, tritium, I'm testing an IRC handler I wrote [03:07] Looce: please, no unofficial bots here [03:07] 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] Thank you, Looce. [03:07] there are also a number of previous versions of this log [03:07] I'll remove the connection definition in my bot, sorry [03:07] does the open source one support 3d? [03:08] Looce: no problem [03:08] ltgg: you have the nvidia driver installed :) [03:08] unfortunately, the open source driver and 3D performance in games don't play well together with the HD4870 [03:08] hello? did someone read the paste bin I posted [03:08] its http://paste.ubuntu.com/158971/ [03:08] I had a sound problem [03:08] Is there a Ubuntu Jaunty channel? [03:08] kinection: My experience is the open source ATI driver and the HD series of ATI cards don't work well [03:08] DIL: Looking up the 'fix' now, [03:08] sound not recognized [03:08] for games that is [03:09] and...apt-get install xubuntu-desktop is gonna take a while ;) [03:09] tictac232434: this is it :) [03:09] ltgg: sudo apt-get remove nvidia-glx-173, then log out [03:09] hello all, could somebody recommend a good IRC client for gnome, using ubuntu 9.04 here [03:09] Oic.. [03:09] hp2210b: xchat. [03:09] So there is no fix for Vmware then on Jaunty yet? [03:09] hp2210b, xchat [03:09] Just making sure before I get rid of Jaunty and downgrade... [03:09] hp2210b: pidgin [03:09] hello, did someone read my pastebin? [03:09] tictac: No. Or at least, there have been no vmware releases since Jaunty came out [03:09] Linuz2009: i did [03:09] Ok, ty [03:09] dewdude: thanks, i took a guess and I am already using that. :) [03:09] good [03:09] tictac: Traditionally, updates to vmare-tools take a few months after a new Ubuntu release. They're a bit slow. [03:09] 1 sec [03:10] I'm going to have to downgrade back to 8.10 since 9.04 seems to be a total disaster for me [03:10] Linuz2009, i'm reading it now [03:10] tictac232434: Virtualbox works well and you can convert a vmware image to a vdi easily. Probably doesn't help you though. [03:10] Hello. I have a support issue with a Dell 1720 laptop and Jaunty. [03:10] I generally end up compromising and running an LTS release in my virtual machines for that reason [03:10] but you ever consider that maybe your sound hardware isn't supported? [03:10] how do you view a list of who is on the channel with this? [03:10] vigo, i see that someone reported as a bug in Feb 2008 [03:10] Is Virtual box similar? [03:10] akincer: ubuntuforums has some help for your card, I believe. [03:10] vbox rocks [03:10] Does VB had the same Capabilities? [03:10] Ctrl-F7 [03:10] Who's having the vmware problem? I use vmware alot on Jaunty. [03:10] VirtualBox did not work well for me, but your mileage may vary [03:10] that opens the User Menu [03:10] I am [03:10] hmmm, I'll have to check, but I fear my issues aren't singular to my graphics card [03:10] wait.. i am talking sun's vmBox [03:10] Linuz2009: im not sure, but it dont seem right [03:10] it's free, so it doesn't cost anything to try it out and see if it works for you [03:10] jander99, i'm thinking of installing workstation soon and CuriosTiger had problems [03:10] hp2210b: you're not using xchat, you're using xchat-gnome [03:11] yes it doesn't [03:11] dewdude I am having the problem [03:11] with Vmware [03:11] tictac232434, what? [03:11] whats a suggested gtk video/audio transcoder? [03:11] oh.. [03:11] * DrAnthraX is away: morpheus calling [03:11] what 5s the best way to program for windows (C++, mainly console) on linux? [03:11] 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] You said you can get Vmware to work on Jaunty? [03:11] 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] !away > DrAnthraX [03:11] DrAnthraX, please see my private message [03:11] nope. [03:11] i never said that [03:11] musikgoat|main: I don't know about GTK, but I use ffmpeg myself [03:11] DIL: Yes, I found a Gnome repair, are you using Gnome? [03:11] crdlb: result: Package nvidia-glx-173 is not installed, so not removed [03:12] 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] Jander [03:12] I am sorry it was jander [03:12] #ubuntu-es [03:12] thanks Looce [03:12] vigo, yes [03:12] I don't know how to roll back drivers. I'll have to google [03:12] that said he knows how to use Vmware on Jaunty [03:12] tictac232434, I upgraded, not fresh installed [03:12] oic [03:12] interesting jander99 , i may install in a little while. [03:12] Thats it? [03:12] ltgg: argh, any idea how you installed the nvidia driver? [03:12] DIL: Looks like re-install or upgrade of Gnome replaces it,,,, [03:12] 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] you cant skip [03:12] I need to install it on my laptop, lemme do that right now, and I'll let you know what I find. [03:12] kk, ty [03:13] eseven73: how do i upgrade to the middle one then [03:13] you can only skip LTS to LTS I belive [03:13] so what do i do? [03:13] 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] then the update manager will offer it [03:13] !upgrade > toed [03:13] toed, please see my private message [03:13] toed: your update-manager may have the LTS-only box checked. [03:13] How do I remove a MDADM device array? [03:13] What Jander did you install Vmware before or after? [03:14] Opengl is slow for me. Please help. [03:14] DIL: It is integrated with the NM , let me find the Update or whatever for Gnome command. [03:14] thanks guys i think i amusing the right one now... [03:14] i have the user list on the right [03:14] crdlb: worked fine under 8.10; after upgrade openGL very slow or not working: tried EnvyNG to repair ... got errors [03:14] would using the catalyst driver on ubuntu be better? [03:14] vigo, appreciate it [03:14] that was a lot less painful than expected, thanks everyone [03:15] DIL: here is one offsiite answer, still looking for 'official' ,,,>http://lwn.net/Articles/169130/ [03:15] does swap store stuff like a cahce?????? [03:15] ltgg: I guess you could just sudo apt-get --reinstall install xserver-xorg-core libgl1-mesa-glx [03:15] ltgg: that should overwite the nvidia installer's changes [03:15] upgraded to 9.04 the other day, desktop effects can not be enabled now, any suggestions? [03:16] hiding desktop from gconf-editor , disables right click on desktop [03:16] hemanth: that is by design [03:16] hp2210c: intel controller? [03:16] hp2210c: lspci | grep VGA , paste the o/p [03:16] 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] dewdude: yes, it is [03:16] crdlb: an hack to get right click ? [03:17] can i empty it??

Investigating. Give me a moment. [03:17] my dell desktop won't enable desktop effects [03:17] ltgg: no [03:17] what's the maximize shortcuts in kubuntu? [03:17] ltgg: that will not work [03:17] my friend's pc with an intel graphics controller won't either...and he says it's related to drivers === root is now known as Guest46828 [03:17] psychic: sure, if you have enough free RAM to hold the contents of your swap. and run this in a terminal: sudo swapoff -a && sudo swapon -a [03:17] my sound playback has worked until I stated using jaunty [03:17] where are the Human icons located? [03:18] 大家好！ [03:18] hey mates, after upgrading to jaunty, my java is broken. I cant run any java applet or start a .jar file.. in Browser(firefox) a white box is shown, where the applet should load and in the shell, I get this error when trying to run a .jar file: \n Java VM: Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (11.3-b02 mixed mode linux-amd64) \n # Problematic frame: \n # C [libc.so.6+0x3158f] catgets+0x1f [03:18] zetheroo1: /usr/share/icons [03:18] 怎么都用英文呀 [03:18] Guest46828: uhh..english? [03:18] hp2210c: me on GeForce2 MX/MX 400 , had same issue now its working [03:18] !chinese | guest46828 [03:18] guest46828: For Ubuntu help in Chinese 您可以访问中文频道： #ubuntu-cn 或者 #ubuntu-tw 或者 #ubuntu-hk [03:18] !cn | Guest46828 [03:18] Guest46828: For Ubuntu help in Chinese 您可以访问中文频道： #ubuntu-cn 或者 #ubuntu-tw 或者 #ubuntu-hk [03:18] what's the maximize and minimize shortcuts in kubuntu? [03:18] hehe [03:18] any ideas? I already tried to reinstall sun-java6-* stuff [03:18] can anyone help me out. xmacro wont record, and the output is blank [03:18] 有中文的吗 [03:18] ok [03:19] 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] looce i type that hold thing "on and off" in all in the same session? [03:19] hey guest, is this chinese? [03:19] Guest46828: go to #ubuntu-cn [03:19] tictac, looks as though vmware installer did not build the kernel modules for the app. [03:19] 你们都是哪的 [03:19] psychic: uh, in the same line in your terminal yes [03:19] psychic, you adjust /proc/sys/vm/swappiness to adjust the priority of swapping. [03:19] hemanth, i am going to paste that in a shell and hope for the best [03:19] is fvwm crystal faster than lxde? [03:19] ltgg: the only thing you need to do is reinstall those packages with apt-get and restart X [03:19] Guest46828, type /join #ubuntu-cn [03:19] psychic, it is probably a better option than disabling swap, which you want to have. [03:20] 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] this is spinning me out my hard drive just keeps truning and turing [03:20] Ok i'm wanting to get a live cd of ubuntu. Ok well i downloaded the desktop ubuntu version, i have a .iso and a .iso.part [03:20] eseven73, is it chinese what he types? [03:20] what do i burn to a disk? [03:20] freemind: it looks like it [03:20] iso.part sounds like an incomplete download [03:20] freemind, it looks like it to me [03:20] oh [03:20] check the .iso [03:20] jdu how do i do that [03:20] ? [03:21] Looce: thanks [03:21] Those having issues with VMWare on Jaunty please msg me.

[03:21] I have a Gutsy install that I would like to upgrade, but all the gutsy sources seem to be 404... is there something I can do aside from fresh installing? [03:21] Has anyone noticed lagging in Firefox in Jaunty? [03:21] psychic: the swapon part of the command re-enabled it [03:21] Hi everyone [03:21] i think swap on [03:21] does Jaunty not use PNG files for icons anymore? [03:21] or sap-on [03:21] crdlb: you were right ... " no ATI graphics driver installed or working " [03:21] pcfreak30: swapon -a [03:21] swap-on [03:21] hola a todos [03:21] seems like its only accepting SVG files [03:21] !es | rigoleto [03:21] rigoleto: En la mayoría de canales Ubuntu se comunica en inglés. Para ayuda en Español, por favor entre en los canales #ubuntu-es o #kubuntu-es. [03:22] is it possible to do a minimal ubuntu installation from the live cd? without any desktop environment, just the bare essentials [03:22] corinth: I do [03:22] ok [03:22] k. i didnt ask the swap q. [03:22] psychic, swappiness propably requires a tutorial, perhaps http://kerneltrap.org/node/3000 to start. [03:22] fwi [03:22] hey mates, after upgrading to jaunty, my java is broken. I cant run any java applet or start a .jar file.. in Browser(firefox) a white box is shown, where the applet should load and in the shell, I get this error when trying to run a .jar file: \n Java VM: Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (11.3-b02 mixed mode linux-amd64) \n # Problematic frame: \n # C [libc.so.6+0x3158f] catgets+0x1f ... any ideas? [03:22] I have Ubuntu 8.10 and I would like to know if it is worth it to upgrade to Ubuntu 9.04 [03:22] pcfreak30: it was for your information :) I know you didn't [03:22] gabriel: Seems to be a crapshoot [03:22] gabriel_: I defintely think so [03:22] so does anyone have a clue on why xmacro is being mean to me... [03:22] I'm leaning to no [03:23] gabriel_: I find it a better release than Intrepid [03:23] gabriel_, might depend on how customized your 8.10 is. [03:23] akincer: any particular reasons why not? [03:23] crdlb: if I do: sudo apt-get --reinstall install xserver-xorg-core libgl1-mesa-glx .... could I lose my graphics altogether ? [03:23] I have with the Mac4lin theme [03:23] ive got no sound, and have to replugin my usb devices on every reboot :p [03:23] but im on 8.10 [03:23] ltgg: not likely, as you're not removing anything [03:23] Wireless works ok with my 8.10 install [03:23] Hello, does anyone know anything about the update manager and software sources? [03:23] looce i know i have swap but it says that that directory doesn't work in terminal when i typ sudo swapoff -a && sudo swapon -a [03:24] DIL: Almost looks like a install gnome is needed to replace that, but I am certain there is an easier way, still looking, [03:24] gabriel_: true what jdu said .... themes should not be a problem though [03:24] anyone know the simpliest way to change a splash screen in ubuntu? All the guides i see are out of date.. [03:24] wtf [03:24] ltgg: or put another way: I've given that command hundreds of times, and that's never happened :) [03:24] 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] i just installed flashplugin-nonfree and restarted firefox and flash isn't comming up [03:24] vigo, ty [03:24] grrr people in #bash aere asleep ahnyone jhere avilable to help me with a scripting problem? [03:24] ok thanks [03:24] is fglrx going to be available for 904 soon? [03:24] 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] so no, it isn't worth it for me [03:24] losher: less stable? not here [03:24] yowshi, perhaps. [03:25] crdlb: will give it a try [03:25] VMWare problem solved. msg me for details please. [03:25] i need some assistance installing 9.04 [03:25] how do I get this screen wit sharing settings? http://library.gnome.org/misc/release-notes/2.26/figures/rnusers.gnome-user-share.png.en_GB [03:25] lookin at 9.04 is it as stable as 8.10? [03:25] jander99, just post a HOWTO on the forums :P [03:25] jdu http://dpaste.com/38211/ this script refuses to repeat the entire sequence [03:25] easier [03:25] akincer: sorry about that ... however Jaunty is working here on a desktop, 2 laptops and a netbook ... all very well [03:25] eseven, good idea. [03:25] hehe [03:26] jander99: what VM problem? [03:26] probably seen this one a few times. can't get flash to work on 9.04 [03:26] zetheroo1: I've been seeing the casualties for 2 days now: no sound, no flash, corrupted partitions, corrupted filesystems, etc. It's a dot-0 release, despite its name [03:26] ack i have an emergency. [03:26] nack [03:26] i got flash working on 9.04 with seamonkey [03:26] losher: on what spectrum of machines? [03:26] i also did new installs [03:26] i have a new install and i ran out of disk space on root. [03:27] ACK!! [03:27] cant save anything to the drive. [03:27] zetheroo1: Well that's great for you. Not so great for me. Oh, I almost forgot -- my sound doesn't work on my laptop when it boots. I have to kill pulseaudio for it to work. That is _insane_ that I have to do that. Pulse Audio needs to be fixed or ditched. Period. The end. [03:27] HELP!!! [03:27] losher: non of those were issues for me and my 4 machines [03:27] DIL: I think this one explains it well: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1062823&highlight=update+gnome [03:27] help---> ew, how do I get the system log back? I dont like the new log viewer [03:27] how can i correct this? [03:27] akincer: that really sucks ... [03:27] yowshi, do you get any particular errors? where does it stop? [03:27] first few weeks of any release is a bit rough sailing, 8.10 was like that too [03:27] i cant get jaunty to dl [03:28] 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] 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] its not coming up in the update manager to install and it keeps saying that my repositories are not valid [03:28] i dont kno what to do [03:28] lookin at 9.04 is it as stable as 8.10? [03:28] akincer: Have you figured out a fix yet? [03:28] crdlb: no apparent harm done .... but still not working [03:28] cchapman: to me it is, even if there is a performance regression on the Intel driver [03:28] zetheroo1: my own 9.04 was usable but I had to work on it... [03:28] losher: ahhh I see ... but thats very typical ... I mean they will be rolling out fixes within the week ... [03:28] i think add/remove programs is doing it, it is jammed. [03:28] ubuntu should be adopting the rule of 'its done when its done' [03:28] 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. [03:29] how can i force it closed? [03:29] ltgg: you need to log out before it'll work [03:29] unomi, then use debian [03:29] zetheroo1: hence my general advice. i.e. if you can afford to wait, do so.... [03:29] losher: I am running Jaunty on 2 laptops (Thinkpad + HP) 1 netbook and 1 desktop.... working all around [03:29] Guest60616: press the X, wait 10 seconds, click Force Quit [03:29] jdu, seriously considering going back to freebsd [03:29] Where is xorg.conf?

[03:29] ieatnoobs: /etc/X11 [03:29] ieatnoobs: /etc/X11/ [03:29] thanks [03:29] Guest60616: or add an applet called "Force Quit" to your top panel, and then click it then the Add/Remove Programs [03:29] Is there an Tech Support number i can call? [03:29] losher: for me Intrepid was a useless release .... I guess its different for ev eryone [03:29] crdlb: OK back soon [03:30] zetheroo1: I don't mean to be argumentative. Not everyone has been so lucky. [03:30] this flickering is happening on ubuntu 9.40 on an Acer Extensa 4420 laptop [03:30] 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] +1 cwillu [03:30] unomi, I like freebsd, but the ports and the packages often seem to be outdated. [03:30] I have two different systems and 9.04 has been a failure on both [03:30] AAACK!! things are locdking up. [03:30] 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] i need to reboot. [03:30] anyone? [03:30] jdu, thats true [03:30] akincer: what are your two machines? [03:30] cdw32: http://www.ubuntu.com/support/paid [03:30] cdw32: You can buy support on it if you want to. Check out www.canonical.com [03:30] cdw32: ur in the tech support, here [03:31] zetheroo1: In general, I don't recommend an upgrade for no reason. There's nearly always some fallout... [03:31] why is ubuntu wasting my whole weekend? [03:31] why? [03:31] dto: are you using compiz? [03:31] has anyone got the kodak esp 3 printer to work? [03:31] cornwall: i turned off the fancy effects, is that what you mean? [03:31] i have no idea how to use this system [03:31] losher: for sure .. but see for my systems the upgrade was an improvement as I no longer have kernel panics [03:31] cornwall: is there a place i can turn compiz off fully? [03:31] 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] jdu: i just tried swapping around the commands and it is just repeating the last command determined by the if statement [03:31] zetheroo1: On is a Dell E5500 Laptop and the other is a Dell Precision 380 workstation [03:31] losher: so its a case by case thing [03:31] anyone have any idea why under ubuntu, ctrl-g in emacs invokes the panic-inducing pcspkr sound? [03:31] cdw32: just ask ur question, someone will try to answer [03:31] cwillu: agreed. It's name 9.04, but its a .0 release [03:31] Fix VMWare in Jaunty: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1139250 [03:32] zetheroo1: Interesting. Personally, I've found 8.04 to be rock solid.... [03:32] 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] how to update kernel? [03:32] akincer: hmmm ... Dell is supposed to be pretty savy with Ubuntu ... although some of them use downright headache hardware ... even for Windows [03:32] dto, disabling effects turns off compiz completely [03:32] cornwall: where is the menu you're talking of? [03:32] cdw32: It is a learning curve, forget EVERYTHING you thought you knew and look at the forums and official documentation from Canonical. [03:32] I am having trouble with a sed command, trying to remove a phrase beginning with "" [03:32] For me Ubuntu 8.10 work pretty fine, way better than 8.04 [03:32] I created a file in /usr/share/applications called gcstar.desktop, and then I did update-desktop-database [03:32] losher: oh yes ... 8.04 is awesome [03:32] System>Compiz Settings manager [03:32] cornwall: where can i select "unredirect" [03:33] However, I don't see the mew menu shortcut in my GNOME menu. [03:33] *new [03:33] i tried to upgrade to jaunty and now my update manager is all messed up [03:33] zetheroo1: I'm certain that at a minimum, the broadcom ethernet chipset is giving me some issues, but that doesn't account for everything [03:33] I tried sed -i 's// /g', but it didn't work, I think it might be an asterisks problem. Can someone help me with this? [03:33] losher: i still run it on my main work computer (Thinkpad) [03:33] Linuz2009: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade [03:33] Does anyone have a Dell Inspiron 1720 (or 1530) laptop and running Jaunty?

[03:33] Linuz2009, also sudo apt-get dist-upgrade [03:33] Linuz2009: look for "linux-headers-generic" being in the update packages list, then type Y [03:33] zetheroo1: So I tell beginners, use 8.04, and everyone else that 9.04 is 'at your own risk' currently [03:33] my update manager wont even work it says that the repositories failed [03:33] cornwall: i don't seem to have System > Compiz Settings Manager [03:33] akincer: honestly I stay away from Dell like the plague ... :-/ [03:33] that, and firefox will not start [03:33] losher: thats sound advise [03:34] Hi, I am using 9.04 on a AMD 64 w/ ATI Radeon, but I have the i386 version installed. I am using compiz as well, but I never had to install the ATI restricted drivers, and it says no proprietary drivers needed...? [03:34] yowshi, what types of values does gcbotexplore return [03:34] you probably don't have the package installed [03:34] 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] dto, it's not installed by default [03:34] losher: I think however that Intrepid is just as risky [03:34] dto: go to Add/remove and search for "compiz", then install CompizConfig Settings Manger [03:34] Where can I find a gutsy mirror? [03:34] jander99, that was very nice of you, nice post :D [03:34] Can anyone help with my sed issue I posted?

[03:35] luis_: theme engine not installed [03:35] I'm putting 8.10 back on immediately and will carve out a small space for 9.04. I'll check back in every now and then to see if any updates fix my issues. Otherwise, I'll pray 9.10 fixes it. [03:35] luis_: could be one thing [03:35] 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] jdu: explore and plunder are just as easily replaced by echo tests [03:35] Vlet: sudo apt-get update [03:35] sbackup is nice whoever was asking about it, once installed you'll see it under System > Admin > Simple Backup [03:35] akincer, what was your issue? [03:35] its only making it worse [03:35] zetheroo1: This is ethernet no wifi broadcom [03:35] is anyone else experiencing random freezes on 9.04 ? [03:35] Oo_2D_oO, because your card is supported by the open source driver [03:35] losher: you should look up the kernel panics in 8.10 ... that was horror [03:35] hipitihop, ext4? [03:36] drfreema: yeah well all the gutsy mirrors are gone. See http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/ [03:36] cwillu: Thank you [03:36] hipiti, do you have an atheros wifi chipset [03:36] 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? [03:36] PoetOfShadows: do you know what packed is that? i installed everything related :P [03:36] 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] cwillu: I don't bellieve so, I upgraded from 8.10 [03:36] akincer ... I see ... so 9.04 is not picking up the ethernet? [03:36] hipitihop, what video card? [03:36] zetheroo1: You said they're improved in 9.04? You're the 1st person I've seen on here to mention it... [03:36] luis_: are there instructions that came with the theme? [03:36] i cant download 9.04 [03:36] voss: Firefox performance sucks for lack of a better word. Urban Terror (my favorite FPS) plays like crap. Sound on my laptop doesn't work on boot--I have to kill Pulse Audio to make it work. The Display app doesn't work on my desktop well at all. That's all I've discovered in 24 hours. [03:36] losher: ha ... well I suppose so ... [03:37] Is there a better way than sed to remove a phrase from a large ammount of html files? [03:37] jdu: always thats why i used a while [ 1 ] statement [03:37] cwillu: ATI ... the catalyst toolset seems to be installed [03:37] oh..IC... thanks!

[03:38] :( [03:38] PoetOfShadows: ill take a look.. 1 of them had no readme file or anything like that... maybe the other :X [03:38] 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] cornwall: ok i've got the ccsm installed... [03:38] luis_: quite possible. I know it's happened to me a few times [03:38] zetheroo1: a *fixed* schedule, I should say... [03:38] losher, got that right, remember Edgy? [03:39] yowshi, I know. Will do that. try putting $( ) around them. [03:39] 8.10 was way more troublesome in the first few weeks, than Jaunty ever will be [03:39] Anyone able to burn audio cd's with Jaunty? [03:39] System>CCSM>General Options, Unredirect Fullscreen.... [03:39] voss: is there a cli command for that ? [03:39] anyone know anything about kodak esp 3 on ubuntu 9.04 [03:39] jdu: putting $() around what? [03:39] jander99: I don't think so. I think I was running fedora in those days, till it got unstable.... [03:39] 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] dto: System>CCSM>General Options, Unredirect Fullscreen.... [03:39] losher: hmmm .... that could also be a factor ... [03:39] cornwall: did it. [03:40] dto: any good? [03:40] yowshi, oh, sorry about the "I know..." don't know where that came from. Around the explore and plunder . [03:40] has anyone had trouble installing or getting to work the nvidia drivers for jaunty? (x86_64 here also) i can't get the 3d to work [03:40] having some issues with resuming from suspend on ubuntu 9.04, its suspending just fine, but get a blank screen on resume [03:40] cornwall: do i have to click anything special to "apply" these changes? === devananda_ is now known as devananda [03:40] 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? [03:40] dto: it fixed my problem completely. And no, you don't [03:40] cornwall: do i need to restart gnome [03:40] losher, Edgy sucked, everything broke pretty much. Right after Dapper and its long release cycle they tried to run alot of new stuff into edgy in less than 6 months. Fiesty fixed alot of it. [03:40] it seems to have helpe [03:40] helped [03:40] I thought Nvidia was solved in Jaunty ... ha [03:40] 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] dto: it should be immediate. [03:40] losher, especially not if you have good linux proven hardware. When it comes to wifi for instance, ill use a proven atheros chipset. [03:40] im so confused [03:40] what program would i need to rip DVD's that i made? [03:40] they would be legal DVD's because they would just be personal videos [03:41] dto: I had fullscreen flash issues, and basically any fullscreen thing (like a movie) would have horrid flickering. It's all gone now [03:41] losher: oh I don't use KDE [03:41] yowshi, $( ) around the commands will their output act like a variable to be stored in the other variables. [03:41] zetheroo, nvidia works great for me in 9.04 thats not to say there arent bugs [03:41] losher: I mean I like it and all ... but its never ever worked for me as well as Gnome [03:41] meoblst001: i use dvd::rip or acidrip [03:41] voss what kind of card and monitor you have? [03:41] how to slove the grub Error17 [03:41] 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? [03:41] gnome user here kde issue problems [03:41] PoetOfShadows: no readme :P [03:41] voss: ok [03:41] 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] zetheroo1: nor me, but there's more code than ever to maintain -> lower quality, or higher cost... [03:41] lvs, 9800 GT, asus 1980x1050 monitor [03:41] dto: so I can't report any decrease personally [03:41] luis_: do you remember where you got it? [03:41] PoetOfShadows: there is a metacity folder and a gtk2.0 folder... with no readme inside [03:42] voss: is that widescreen? [03:42] cornwall: that feature was already turned on for me [03:42] luis_: do you remember where you got it? [03:42] jdu: i see and how will this change anything? [03:42] zetheroo1: the old joke: fast, high quality, cheap: pick any *two*.... [03:42] dto: yeah, you're supposed to turn it off [03:42] PoetOfShadows: yes... gnome-look in the gtk2.0 theme section [03:42] crdlb: still there? [03:42] lvs, imagine a widescreen monitor now make it wider ;-) Its true hd dimensions 16x9 [03:42] cornwall: ok. but compiz is still on? [03:42] 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] dto: yes [03:42] i still get some flickering in emacs [03:42] luis_: go back and see if there is anything indicating anything there [03:42] voss: cool. mind if i send you a message? [03:42] lvs ok [03:42] dto: hm... [03:43] PoetOfShadows: well none of the themes work properly... maybe its something more general :X [03:43] 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] luis_: have you tried logging out and then back in? [03:43] PoetOfShadows: yes... twice [03:43] cornwall: i'm going to try fluxbox [03:43] PoetOfShadows: do i need to restart or just relog in X? [03:43] cornwall: brb [03:44] 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] 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? [03:45] ltgg: yes [03:45] 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] jdu: err done < [03:45] Joeseph: did you try using the terminal to update/upgrade? [03:45] PoetOfShadows: I have not tried that yet. What command do I use? [03:46] 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] 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] I have a question myself: does anyone have compiz scroll desktops when you are on a certain part of a window and using the mouse wheel? [03:46] Joeseph: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade [03:46] Joeseph: that pretty much covers everything [03:46] try reinstall compiz I had problems with this seem to be working since update [03:46] vigo, ty [03:46] crdlb: I am royally f*****d. when I logged out my screen froze, had to cold boot , and now I have NO graphics!!! now what? [03:46] PoetOfShadows: Alright. I'll try it. Thanks. [03:46] Joeseph: not problem, I'm here to help if you need more [03:47] DIL: That one make sense or help? [03:47] how do I get just the day of the week on the command line [03:47] PoetOfShadows: It seems to be doing more than it has in the past... that's good. [03:47] Hey all I need help with nvidia drivers :( [03:47] Joeseph: yeah, generally a good sign [03:47] !ask | Anthrax704 [03:48] Anthrax704: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line, so others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) [03:48] i have the libmad installed [03:48] but when i try to compile vlc [03:48] anyone know of reall good tutorial on seting up ubuntu to a windows network? [03:48] four2zero: what do you mean by that? [03:48] I just installed the 180.xx nvidia drivers and it asked me to restart, now ubuntu is not loading [03:49] 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] why? [03:49] connect windows and ubuntu for filesharing? [03:49] four2zero: do you mean to get it a presence in the network and such? === deface is now known as rejisgay [03:49] Yes. [03:49] Anthrax704, did you do nvidia-xconfig? [03:49] Anyone help me with tremulous crashing problem? [03:49] four2zero: probably googling samba + ubuntu would be good [03:49] crdlb: XFIX in recovery menu does nothing ... just boots to a garbled screen [03:49] four2zero: samba is your best bet [03:49] Armorial: did you try installing some plugin , or did you try reinstalling vlc [03:49] phirestalker: do you mean something like date "+%a" ?

[03:59] freemind: doing fconfig shows no change [03:59] + [03:59] Adremelech|Lapto: How can I get to do that, ubuntu is just stuck on Starting up... after the boot loader [03:59] How do i move the close button from the right to the left? [03:59] freemind, also tried to ping that address, no response [03:59] phillip: GNOME? [03:59] Adremelech|Lapto: I'm on my desktop on windows, Ubuntu is on my laptop === phillip is now known as NightHawk887 [03:59] hemanth: You may have to remove and install it again, because its files may have been clobbered without Apt knowing [03:59] knows anyone why ther is no package candidate for libxcb-xlib0 package in jaunty?? i really need it!

[04:06] FloridaGuy: it does matter to an extent. But if you can find the best mirror for yourself, that'll do… The close ones tend to work faster though [04:06] Anthrax704, nvidia-xconfig [04:06] cornwall, exactly [04:06] crdlb: oh i will check that thx [04:06] Adremelech|Lapto: alright thank you [04:06] crdlb: reinstalled those 2 packages, retried xfix, then to normal boot .... booted to garbage screen and computer lockup again. HELP11 .. tht is my production laptop ... am taling now on other machine.

Just figure out how it works, I cant tell you - got the same problems first :% [04:07] PoetOfShadows: well whats close to florida [04:07] Kengine, I mean this applet, better proof via console [04:08] cornwall, oki thanks :) [04:08] ltgg: I have no idea what you could've done to it to cause this :/ however, if you edit your /etc/X11/xorg.conf, you should be able to set the driver to vesa [04:08] FloridaGuy: most of them are named after their locations, so you could find one somewhere close.

[04:13] !wpa | usser [04:13] usser: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs [04:13] Okay, need some help. Have an NVIDIA 7150M. When I start compiz, I get a black screen. What do I do? [04:13] * usser sighs again [04:13] all the methods on the web utilize several different tools and i was just looking for a simpler solution, it'd be nice if one command could take care of that type of thing [04:13] heh [04:13] Adremelech|Lapto: sudo nvidia-xconfig? [04:13] wep is crackable in under 60 seconds on an in use connection [04:13] mase_work, well not 60, 5-10 minutes i'd say [04:14] sometimes it doesnt take that long to crack it on a connection that's not in use [04:14] Eh, I just turn off my ssid, the hackers cant hack what they cant see :) [04:14] heh [04:14] Anthrax704, yes [04:14] usser: enough sighing, please. It's just spamming the channel [04:14] are the servers still being punished by upgrades? [04:14] usser: no its 60. Part of my job is security audits [04:14] oh, if you disable ssid broadcast, we can see 'em...we can euventually get on 'em [04:14] tritium, relax will you [04:14] hi all, did some stuff to get 2.6.30-rc2 kernel, i believe i have it, how do i get grub to provide it in a list at start up? [04:14] crdlb: put " vesa" in place of "configured video device" ?? [04:14] how do I add a gnp key to my keyring [04:14] on my home network... i cracked it without any connections using false auth, and it happened to work in like a min [04:14] usser: enough [04:14] although sometimes it might take hours... its one of those funky things [04:14] Okay, need some help. Have an NVIDIA 7150M. When I start compiz, I get a black screen. What do I do? [04:14] daveWM_ you could also maybe use something like QEMU and mount your images in there without reformatting all the time? [04:14] 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 [04:15] DShepherd: upgraded my wife's laptop today didn't notice a delay [04:15] usser: if its not in use, it takes alot longer [04:15] ltgg: no, put Driver "vesa" on a new line after that Identifier line [04:15] I use latest ATi propietary driver (ATi Radeon HD 4350) and my monitor wont turn off when it should (I set it up in "power management"), only the screen is painted black but the monitor is on. It didnt happen with the default driver that came with Ubuntu. Any idea? [04:15] dewdude, you still have to know they are there. I dont have to have the best security, I just let my neighbors lousy security provide more attractive honeypots. [04:15] Adremelech|Lapto: Ok ran it as root and it created a new one [04:15] yeah, but i kind of want it portable, to different machines, the usb stick thing seems to make sense [04:15] IMHO a wifi connection secured with wpa+psk is the most secure wifi connection that one can have usser [04:15] mase_work, cool [04:15] Anthrax704, try rebooting now [04:16] Adremelech|Lapto: Alright trying [04:16] yeah, wpa isnt even worth trying to hack unless you just have a bunch of time to spare... === Cpudan80_ is now known as Cpudan80 [04:16] usser: so yeh WEP is marginally more useful than nothing :) [04:16] crdlb: " vesa" in quotes? [04:16] voss: no. my cousin's apartment building has a wifi point like that. i detected it's presence instantly...was able to obtain the mac...and when i waited long enough one of the computers connected to it and broadcast an unencrypted ssid [04:16] Hey, can anyone tell me: I have a HP Dv6910us laptop. Can I replace the CPU and Video card? [04:16] Adremelech|Lapto: Also I got a msg saying to try this sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg, would that help? [04:16] ltgg: yep, exactly like this: Driver "vesa" [04:16] but it turned out the guy never changed it from netgear. [04:16] ieatnoobs: cpu possibly, video card unlikely [04:16] Anthrax704, i dont think thats needed [04:17] ieatnoobs: you probably wouldn't have an easy time doing it though [04:17] Adremelech|Lapto: Ok thanks, it's restarting now [04:17] well, thnx jbmigel , i'll just fiddle a bit more and see what i can figure out [04:17] good luck daveWM_ [04:17] mase_work: Wai? [04:17] what about WPA aes [04:17] i dunno why somebody out there hasnt made some universal tool for this type of thing, seems doable... but then what do i know [04:17] heh [04:18] ieatnoobs: what does wai mean ? [04:18] how do i change my locales? [04:18] mase_work: Why? [04:18] !wpa aes | U-b-u-n-t-u [04:18] Sorry, I don't know anything about wpa aes [04:18] !wpa | U-b-u-n-t-u [04:18] U-b-u-n-t-u: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs [04:18] Adremelech|Lapto: Wonderful! Restarted and works great, got the extra apperance stuff too thanks a lot [04:19] ty [04:19] crdlb: this is weird, all graphics apps are asking for the libxcb-xlib ..official or not, i think ubuntu must allow me to install it, dont you think? [04:19] etb: I think you can through System>Language support [04:19] etb: I may be wrong, though [04:19] 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] mase_work: Oh. [04:19] trish: can you elaborate a bit on what you mean? when are they asking for it? in a runtime error on the console? [04:20] trish: if so, what's the exact message? [04:20] ieatnoobs if you dont like that laptop ill have it... cuz its way better than mine [04:20] jbmigel: no, it's just the 2.0ghz AMD Turion x2 kinda blows. [04:20] jbmigel: I'll take yours, because yours is probably better than mine ;) [04:20] mase_work, plus netbooks are getting cheaper and more powerful everyday. [04:21] !slap : ieatnoobs [04:21] Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) [04:21] whe i run for ex kdm it says: kdm error while loading shared libraries libxcb-xlib.so.0 cannot open shared object file no such file or directory [04:21] jbmigel: i've fixed up a few laptops that were crap to somebody else and made them quite useful [04:21] its very pleasing [04:21] voss: true, most netbooks are more powerful than my laptop. g3 ibook 800 [04:21] ouch G3. that's pretty ghetto - bet that can barely play mpeg4? [04:21] (DivX/XviD) [04:21] question [04:21] u guys could have my desktop : 433 MHz process, 64 MB Ram [04:21] trkemist: answer [04:22] MK13: nice [04:22] Why the slap? [04:22] trish: ok, please run 'ldd $(command -v kdm)' and pastebin the output [04:22] anyone have a guide to building a really small ubuntu desktop with firefox [04:22] like 1GB or less? [04:22] MK13: 64mb ram would be tough wouldn't it [04:22] the one i'm on now i paid 40 bucks for, keyboard was messed up, and they didnt have half the drivers installed for half the hardware... they thought it didnt have wireless in it... sound didnt work, eth didnt work... it was useless to them [04:22] mase_work: ya [04:22] it runs XP [04:22] MK13: Probably about enough to run Vista [04:22] MK13 man thats like pentium 2... zoom! [04:22] I purchased a keyboard for 25 bucks and dl drivers and its sweet [04:22] MK13: That desktop of yours is better of at the smith soninian in washington dc [04:22] trkemist: unfortunately, my answer is no... how embarrassing! [04:22] Intel celeron actually :D [04:22] MK13: ouch. i am guessing that swaps a bit [04:22] jbmigel: or pentium 3 [04:22] cornmail - grrr [04:23] jbmigel: nvm :D [04:23] crdlb: [04:23] anyone knowledgable about vpnc here? [04:23] u.u [04:23] MK13 i run a celeron in my laptop... but they made lots of different ones over the years [04:23] crdlb: still boots to system crash, no graphics! [04:23] !vpnc | uWin2Linux [04:23] Sorry, I don't know anything about vpnc [04:23] I cant make work my intel with jaunty [04:23] i got a dv8110us for 50 bucks, lcd didnt work, took it apart and it was a broken wire coming off the inverter [04:23] i just use it as a file server, i get ~7MBs with it [04:23] !botabuse | TopBunny88 [04:23] TopBunny88: Please investigate with me only with "/msg ubottu Bot" or in #ubuntu-bots. Search for factoids with "/msg ubottu !search factoid". [04:24] that kind of thing makes me grin for a few days straight [04:24] my new atom eeepc runs as good as a pentium [04:24] ltgg: argh, I guess you could force the vesa driver by uninstalling radeon: sudo apt-get remove xserver-xorg-video-radeon [04:24] daveWM_ thats a wicked score! [04:24] 00:02.1 Display controller: Intel Corporation Mobile 945GM/GMS/GME, 943/940GML Express Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 03) [04:24] my hard drive wont stop spinnning???>>?> [04:24] that's my video card [04:24] I have plenty or RAM (more than required for the tasks I am doing, 8GB) is there any argument for having a swap file, apart from hibernation? [04:24] and doesn't work in jaunty [04:24] crdlb: i havent internet in that machine now, but it says: libxcb-xlib.so.0 => not found [04:24] psychic is so cute [04:24] someone has the same problem? [04:24] forces, is that a fresh jaunty install? [04:24] the ram for that one was expensive though, i maxed it out to 2gb, cost me 80 bucks or so, not horrible, but more expensive than other ram [04:25] it just keeps going nothing is running [04:25] What are the main differences between 8.10 and Jaunty? [04:25] i run vpnc [04:25] lol [04:25] voss, yes [04:25] just desktop and pidgin [04:25] anyone know how to tzap in jaunty now the example files are gione? [04:25] i finally got it working but i have to keep editing the resolv.conf in order to connect to servers via host name. is there a way to add and make it stay? [04:25] ieatnoobs: read the release notes for some highlights [04:25] what do u want to know about it? [04:25] trish: that doesn't help, I need the output of ldd; can you hook up to ethernet and use 'pastebinit' to pastebin it? [04:25] Hokay. [04:25] i hate when there's disk activity and you're not doing anything psychic [04:25] heh [04:25] ubuntu_fan u can see me pulling my hair out over this right lol [04:25] like wtf... [04:26] i know how can i make it stop lol [04:26] forces, what kind of computer? [04:26] makes you paranoid [04:26] hrs of spining [04:26] hold the power button down for about 10 seconds... [04:26] crld: ok ill try [04:26] lol [04:26] lol [04:26] voss, laptop [04:26] HP pavilio dv1680us [04:26] pavilion [04:26] psychic: is there a process which is using the hard disk causing it to spin ? [04:26] is there a way to make the resolv.conf keep the nameserver information? or do i put it somewhere else [04:26] i have tried restarts and everything [04:27] I cant play urban terror, openarena, counter strike (wine) [04:27] well no everything is sleeping [04:27] crdlb: done ... now what? ... still in console [04:27] trish: actually, I guess ldd $(command -v kdm) | grep local would answer my question [04:27] everythings run slowly [04:27] when i use firefox its worst [04:27] wrong....not nameserver but dns suffix [04:27] uWin2Linux: resolve.conf will get overridden by networkmanager by default [04:27] ltgg: now try rebooting again [04:27] do a ps -A and see what looks suspicious psychic [04:27] firefox uses 70% of my resources [04:27] heh [04:27] i love you psychic [04:27] ps -A in terminal [04:27] ? [04:28] is there a known bug where gvfsd is using ~ 1.7gb of memory? [04:28] to show all processes [04:28] psychic: Have you check thoes game against the wine compatibility database [04:28] psychic: that will be doing it. Do you have many extensions or something like flash which is chewing up the cpu [04:28] although i guess you'd have to do sudo ps -A [04:28] ubuntu_fan thanx lol i fixxed my screen issue after 4 days in here and forums lol [04:28] thats great [04:28] youtube?? [04:28] lol [04:28] I kicked redmond to the curb ealier this evening [04:28] td123: I think 1.7 gb is how much ram your system has total [04:29] Hello; someone manage an asus eeepc? (1000h) [04:29] 'manange'? [04:29] topbunny no.. [04:29] MK13: no [04:29] i got 2 901's Amaeth [04:29] use i say [04:29] i love it when there are linux youtube videos [04:29] just got em... they're sexy.. ones perl white and ones black [04:29] daveWM how do i do that ps -A thing [04:29] ? [04:29] MK13: my system has 2gb, I remember gvfsd using 1.7 gb (since my comp was acting slow, I decided to check) [04:30] just open a terminal psychic [04:30] o cool [04:30] type sudo ps -A [04:30] psychic just open a terminal and type it in.... but i think 'top' might help better [04:30] terminal i can do [04:30] topbunny88? [04:30] top shows them according to resources jbmigel ? [04:30] crdlb: no change ... boots to lockup ... should I not have tried xfix? [04:30] i don't remember [04:31] jbmigel top what [04:31] ? [04:31] daveWM_ well by cpu activity... which is probably correlated with drive activity [04:31] 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] ltgg: I don't see how it could be locking up with the vesa driver :/ [04:31] psychic just type top and hit enter [04:31] ah yea psychic [04:31] just type "top" [04:31] ok will try [04:31] and see what's got the most activity [04:31] psychic hit q to quit it [04:32] he's right [04:32] top is realy sharp [04:32] 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] MK13: right, but that doesn't explain why gvfsd is using 1.7gb of memory [04:32] it usually works in 8.04 [04:32] 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] 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] crdlb: here the pastebin http://pastebin.com/f5eacdf5d [04:32] htop is pretty [04:32] lol [04:33] u know firefox is taking 33 % ave processor but i think its somthing i messed up in swap [04:33] is there a huge difference on ntfs tools now in 9.04?? [04:33] i wonder if any of those indicate disk activity [04:33] i made a new swap [04:33] 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] evanotten: try vlc [04:33] i just downloaded dragon player and it only plays the initial sequence of dvd [04:33] thats the continuous spining of my h.d. prob i think [04:33] did you set swappiness psychic ? [04:33] it makes since to me anyways [04:33] psychic-- its better than opera...opera steals your processor and alot of ram [04:33] you might be swapping constantly [04:33] Is there an application similar to Audacity that allows you to edit video files? [04:33] no it was all manual [04:33] trish1: as I suspected, you have a libX11 in /usr/local (ie you installed it from source) [04:33] i can attest the examples using "foo, bar, BAZ" are used at least 1 time per day [04:34] 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 === phuz|dupe is now known as phuzion [04:34] what ever would be done by going with !swap [04:34] in here [04:34] crld: it might be the kde4-neon i guess [04:34] will do thank you [04:34] i have epiphamy to [04:34] crld: but this means i cant run this anymore? [04:34] td123: are you using rhythmbox? [04:34] i use firefox the most [04:34] iceweasel and epiphany are pretty sweet [04:35] hey my hard drive is sleeping [04:35] so peaceful [04:35] noscript + firefox = security [04:35] mid-browser is nifty too if you like something easy to look at [04:35] heh [04:35] lol [04:35] 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] MK13: I don't remember if I was using it at that time, but yes, I do use it quiet frequently [04:35] does gksu need to run inside GUI? [04:35] td123: maybe http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=981606 [04:35] MK13: and I remember leaving my computer idle for a long time before finding out that it was using an obnoxious amount of memory [04:36] MK13: ty, i'll take a look [04:37] crld: YES! its working now, thanks! [04:37] join irc://irc-hispano.org [04:37] is there anyway that i can change my swapiness to 100 [04:37] ? [04:37] crdlb: checked xorg.conf again and it has reverted to file without driver "vesa" will try again [04:37] well im happy that its wokring now, but it means that i have to work tomorrow with no excuses hah [04:38] ubuntu_fan things have slowed down a bit in here [04:38] under 1500 people now [04:38] 9.04 got things busy huh [04:39] so many early adopters... im running 7.10 still waiting for 8.04 to get stable [04:39] 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] yeah, my 9.04 has been fine, have all of you guys' been as well? [04:39] thats good nice an peaceful [04:39] Hrmf. [04:39] Did anyone else's upgrade from 8 to 9 go all completely borked? [04:39] So Ubuntu tells me tghere's a proprietary nvidia driver available. I tell it to Activate. [04:39] It downloads the driver, but it doesn't seem to Activate [04:39] i did a upgrade from 8 to 9....was not pretty [04:39] asiks: my upgrade did bork a lot, but a fresh install and I've been fantastic :) [04:39] a general question. Want to import my music folder on my mac onto my ubuntu machine [04:40] and then after reboot, it complains my video config is broken. [04:40] I love the fact that ubuntu works without any real work [04:40] if i just copy the itunes folder, its not very organized [04:40] i think when i decide to 'upgrade' ill just reformat and start over... [04:40] cornwall - Yeah, I ended up doing a fresh install. [04:40] any ideas? [04:40] ubuntu: I love that ideal. I wish it did for me more often [04:40] asiks: just another reason to go ext4, eh? ;) [04:40] yeah that what i would recommend to anyone [04:40] it's rare that it works out of the box without having to tweak something -- usually video or networking [04:40] (or both) [04:40] cornwall- Installing from the live disk by default does ext3 apparently [04:40] 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? [04:41] wtf ext4... what did they add to it [04:41] asiks: It does, but you can change that during install [04:41] I did -- mostly to see how ext4 performs [04:41] Where? [04:41] I am looking at ruby rails now as a next thing to get into [04:41] asiks: yeah, but I went ext4 and am loving it. My very modest setup is pretty dang fast and effective [04:41] asiks: In the partitioner [04:41] double-click on the suggested / partition and change the type to ext4 [04:41] I didn't want to do it manually because I was afraid I'd accidentally nuke my xp install [04:41] whats the difference between ext3 and ext4 anyway? [04:41] Can you do that within the 'guided' install process? [04:41] performance improvements and some added features [04:42] xorg is eating 30 or so % of my system now [04:42] asiks: Dunno. The guided install process didn't let me span an LVM across multiple physical disks, so I went manual [04:42] ode freenode-connect is a real nice and easy irc channel as well [04:42] jbmigel: mainly speed, but also some functionality enhancements like being able to handle much larger file sizes and the like [04:42] psychic if you stare at that long enough you'll start to complain about 'top' using your resources [04:42] How can I properly clone windows XP using ubuntu liveCD gparted ?? [04:42] lol [04:42] you must use manual install to choose other file systems [04:42] lol i am already there [04:42] crdlb: no change ... is [04:42] hm [04:43] How can I be sure I won't nuke my xp install? haha [04:43] asiks: Back it up first. [04:43] Seriously. [04:43] it will show your xp partition- just don't use it lolz [04:43] psychic-- if you have not...install htop... a little better [04:43] is kvm the favorite hypervisor under ubuntu? [04:43] but you can resize it [04:43] I guess I should try that before I get too settled in with this fresh install [04:43] jbmigel ...funny..., i'll close the terminal window now nothing suspisious just poor system performance i'll learn it [04:43] i installed virtualbox [04:43] Can anyone offer me a suggestion on how to get the proprietary nvidia video driver to work with Xorg in Jaunty? [04:43] Are there any drawbacks with ext4? [04:43] crdlb: is apt-cache policy a command line? [04:44] Xcell how so? [04:44] or how? [04:44] ? [04:44] asiks: Several, the primary one being backwards compatibility [04:44] asiks: there were reported data losses, but I haven't had a single problem [04:44] ltgg: part of one, yes: apt-cache policy xserver-xorg-video-radeonhd [04:44] i use reiserfs- it's better if you have many small files [04:44] psychic-- open terminal and do it.. sudo apt-get install htop [04:44] sudo apt-get install htop or somthing? [04:44] once you mount an ext4 file system with the new options, older linux systems can no longer read it [04:44] backwards compibility in what sense? [04:44] o ok [04:44] thanks [04:44] oh [04:44] asiks: but I am backing up regularly to avoid any disaster [04:44] 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] cluster size difference or something [04:44] hi, all [04:44] egos: it's pretty much abandonware since Hans Reiser went to jail and his company collapsed, though [04:44] 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] All I have is xp and ubuntu, so going to ext4, that shouldn't matter [04:45] ! [04:45] I dd'd the unr image to a 2.5GB flash disk, but I get "Hard disk boot sector invalid" error [04:45] wtf? [04:45] absentia, you want synaptic for installing stuff [04:45] absentia: bash is already installed by default [04:45] egosintrick: I'm curious, how stable is reiserfs for you, though? I have heard that it's a massively unstable fs [04:45] any tips? [04:45] evanotten: did you ping me? [04:45] curios: it was a test -- it didn't say "alrady installeD" or show me a package [04:45] it said no match. [04:45] hmm dunno [04:45] I figured it was installed -- so that should have shown me the package and then said it was already installed. [04:45] absentia, synaptic...use synaptic [04:45] absentia: add/remove is only for GUI applications that provide a menu entry [04:46] anyone that can offer me advice cuz i am nub [04:46] it's not a full package manager [04:46] synaptic? wazzat? [04:46] lol [04:46] a package manager [04:46] i honestly don't know what add/remove programs does..... [04:46] anyone here use the unr image? [04:46] so any suggestions? I want the mp3s i copied from itunes folder on ubuntu [04:46] 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] any program that would do it for me? [04:46] I need to a text file to launch on startup. [04:46] it's also a package manager, but limited, like crdlb said [04:46] synaptic is the gui package manager [04:46] apt-get is command line [04:46] evanotten: Oh you said advance in your what ever you want [04:46] thanks. [04:46] yea add/remove i funny [04:46] 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? [04:46] ya, I ran apt-get all the time on my zaurus ... loved debian. [04:47] thanks. [04:47] np [04:47] lol my bad its late, no i just need help with getting a dvd to run [04:47] ooo... htop is coloryful [04:47] 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] psychic is it worth the disk space you think? [04:47] apt-get dist-upgrade from potato to woody hosed a debian system for me spectacularly once [04:47] :P [04:47] this is the first time i have tried to run a dvd since moving to linux [04:48] absentia, the add/remove programs is more like for installing end-user applications [04:48] which you can do in synaptic [04:48] evan: make sure you have dvdnav4 installed [04:48] it for menus [04:48] hah yea its fine [04:48] CuriosTiger: Wasn't that the libc5 -> libc6 transition on Debian? [04:48] hey guys, how do I look up users under a group, is there a file under etc? like passwd, only for groups? === ScottG490 is now known as ScottG489 [04:48] WTF! [04:48] evan: you also need libdvdcss2 [04:48] that got it -- thanks guys (gals) [04:48] like kmplayer? [04:48] 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] carsonc: Yes. [04:49] carsonc: Which was also the problem [04:49] it's to diff stories ones only 55 kb [04:49] evan: it's an independant package [04:49] carsonc: apt-get replaced my libc.so.1 [04:49] all players use it [04:49] or glibc.so.1 rather [04:49] vlc might not need it [04:49] the gutsy sources have been disabled!!! how am i suppsed to install htop now eh?? [04:49] which basically made every binary on the system shit itself [04:49] 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] Yeah, I remember that upgrade. I think I just said screw it and installed from scratch [04:50] carsonc: I said screw it and installed redhat ;) [04:50] ltgg: if you can mount the jaunty partition, please pastebin the /var/log/Xorg.0.log off of it [04:50] jbmigel-- mine work fine [04:50] Xcell you're running gutsy too? [04:50] jbmigel-- make sure its on (main) server? [04:50] ya [04:50] topbunny88 u stil here? [04:51] 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] Xcell i guess maybe that package isnt in the repo [04:51] crdlb: OK [04:51] some are not.. [04:51] i'v taken a regular ubuntu install and made it look/work almost like ubuntu mobile [04:51] :( [04:51] but its actually a bit better since its full blown ubuntu of course [04:52] im still on 7.10 cuz i got tired of dealing with pulse [04:52] '''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''' [04:52] Jordan_U gutsy here was the first linux distro to autoinstall my wifi card... since then ive never needed to upgrade,... we reached perfection in 7.10 [04:52] things are really easy to see, when windows are maximized, window decorations like title bar, min, max, close buttons are removed and buttons on my taskbar at the top control all that instead [04:52] @lart Relaed [04:52] bah [04:52] failed to load nvidia kernel module [04:52] oops [04:52] great, tell me WHY [04:52] :P [04:52] also using mid-browser which runs maximized like that, with address bar and big buttons at the bottom of the screen instead [04:52] how much ram do desktop icons use?? [04:53] it all looks kind of nifty [04:53] !food > Relaed [04:53] Sorry, I don't know anything about food [04:53] psychic i don't imagine too much [04:53] argh!

[04:53] relaed chill [04:53] 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] relaed seriously fix ur head or your keyboard or somthing god bless u [04:53] it looks like it [04:53] Jordan_U im affraid to upgrade cuz my wifi might stop working... can you totally promise it will still work out of the box [04:54] Xcell: floodbot requires that there be multiple messages in a short period. the big one was only 1 message [04:54] QUESTION: when powering down/restarting ubuntu now tells my comp to "beep" ... can i turn this off ?? [04:54] i'm good at tweaking windows like that, don't know enough about ubuntu yet to really know what's ok to remove and how to go about it [04:54] ok [04:54] hehe [04:54] lol [04:54] hey i was trying to figure out how to get an interactive dvd to play as well as be able to navigate the menus i was told to download dvdnav and something else, can anyone offer me some assistance, thank you I am new here :D [04:54] psychic, lol [04:54] I know what you mean [04:54] jbmigel toshiba sat 2.66ghz p4 512 mg ram [04:54] 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] 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] evanotten: install totem-xine and use that instead of totem-gstreamer (the default). it has dvd menu support [04:55] polterge|st my computer has one of those its eating my hard drive [04:55] 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] I hope a proc will get made for this dell optiplex gx50 [04:55] you could try a lighter distribution psychic [04:55] a 2ghz perhaps [04:55] i have 9.04... thought it would be ok [04:55] the only thing I see is an initial failure to detect keyboard/mouse (because they're legacy devices), but they work fine [04:55] Jordan_U thats ok ill wait untill ragnarok... thanks for the suggestion [04:55] In 9.04 I tried to enter the netboot mode but it asked for a root password. 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] it is a 1.2 and it is alright but 2 ghz would be nice [04:55] cool lemme check it out [04:55] thanks [04:55] and then the error that the nvidia module can't load [04:55] relaed needs something lighter [04:55] CuriosTiger: what driver did you load? [04:56] pychic xubuntu still to heavy? [04:56] scunizi: The nvidia 180 one [04:56] crdlb: http://paste.ubuntu.com/159010/ [04:56] forceware build 180 I guess [04:56] CuriosTiger: the one in the repos and in the restricted driver manager? [04:56] scunizi: Restricted driver manager. [04:56] i dont know if i even have ubuntu lol [04:56] 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] ok, before i go to sleep... does anybody knows why i can not mark my forums treads "[SOLVE]" in ubuntu forums? [04:56] bump [04:56] jbmigel, Wait until ragnarok? [04:56] the binary driver [04:56] CuriosTiger: you might try rebooting into the recovery kernel and using the "fix x" option on the menu [04:57] the open source one doesn't allow me more than 800x600, nor does it allow compiz fusion to work [04:57] scunizi: I did already, it completes but does not actually fix the problem [04:57] CuriosTiger: also have you installed nvidia-settings? [04:57] hello friends ,is communication port works in abuntu,for working it properly which package i need please help me [04:57] 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] ltgg_: you could ask #xorg if they see something wrong with that, because I don't [04:57] 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 [04:58] 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] CuriosTiger: try xserver-xorg-video-nouveau works good for me [04:58] SoulNothing i originaly installed xubuntu did the desktop upgrade to ubuntu intrepid then just yesterday upgraded in synaptic to 9.04.. [04:58] hrm [04:58] module nvidia does not exist in /proc/modules [04:58] so it apparently fails to load at kernel level [04:58] 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] CuriosTiger: check what SoulNothing mentioned above. [04:58] anyone know where mod_ssl is for apache? [04:59] 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] soulnothing: Yeah, I was doing that when I realized rmmod nvidia didn't have a module to remove [04:59] so it's not loading at kernel level [04:59] let's see if modprobe can tell me why [04:59] 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] redpearl: locate mod_ssl [04:59] hi friends [04:59] i can navigate on host = linux but on vmware guest = xp pro cannot navigate the internet, anyone plz [04:59] Module nvidia not found [04:59] buenas noches [04:59] so it looks like it wasn't installed correctly [04:59] dmesg |grep nvidia [04:59] QUESTION: when powering down/restarting ubuntu now tells my comp to "beep" ... can i turn this off ?? [05:00] What password should I give when in the netboot choice for recovery mode? [05:00] Tech-Mike, computer returned nothing [05:00] soulnothing: no hits [05:00] algunos de ustedes hablan español [05:00] Wolf23, Have you setup a virtual NIC ? [05:00] !es | gabo [05:00] gabo: En la mayoría de canales Ubuntu se comunica en inglés. Para ayuda en Español, por favor entre en los canales #ubuntu-es o #kubuntu-es. [05:00] sometimes no sound,after replace asound.state and reboot, sound come again. anyone knows why? [05:01] So when I do manual partition, what do i put as the mount point? [05:01] !sound [05:01] 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] 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] 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] 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] asiks: / [05:01] asiks: make 3 partitions / for root, /home for home and /swap .. [05:01] scunizi: swap, not /swap [05:01] it makes a swap one automatically [05:01] and /home frankly is optional [05:01] i think [05:01] CuriosTiger: tue [05:01] It does. [05:02] mlissner-- try enabling it again? [05:02] CuriosTiger: having a seperate /home is typically a good idea [05:02] but if you're in manual mode, we don't necessarily assume the auto-generated stuff survived :) [05:02] Xcell: Sadly, no dice. [05:02] 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] scunizi: Not a big issue on modern systems, although I'll agree it's still a good habit. [05:02] asiks, Yes [05:02] asiks: basically. [05:02] all you did was fresh boot? [05:03] I have a 180 gig HD. How much space should I allocate for home? [05:03] mlissner, What GFX card and did you ever install proprietary drivers manually? [05:03] Xcell: well, it crashed first, but that's nothing new. I may have installed the latest updates since my last update. [05:03] and by 180 i mean 150 apparently [05:03] Jordan_U: I have the i965 Intel card [05:03] Jordan_U: where is the problem? [05:04] how to slove grub Error17 [05:04] Wolf23, Was that last comment meant for me? [05:04] My /boot is a dependent area [05:04] i just dl'd vlc, totem , and kmplayer and i am only able to see the initial sequence of the dvd i am trying to watch, the dvd has menus in it and i am unable to launch the dvd can anyone offer me their assistance in this, i am new and would greatly appreciate help thank you in advance [05:04] 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!!! [05:05] Wolf23, I don't know what is causing the problem you are having with VMware [05:05] So no ideas how to get this going, huh? [05:05] evanotten-- using vlc should allow you to click on screen menue [05:05] Anyone have any advice on how to partition my drive? [05:05] doesn't one usually have to be root to mount/unmount to begin with? [05:05] Follow the web solution:when I run the grub [05:05] type the command :find /boot/grub/stage1 [05:05] asiks: that's a tough one. [05:05] crdlb: are you out of ideas to recover my graphics then? [05:06] return: Error 15: File not found [05:06] mlissner, What version of ubuntu? [05:06] /home generally contains all user created content [05:06] what can I do if xorg locks up on starting up and an xfix doesn't solve it? [05:06] 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] 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] that's all the music and movies and schoolwork whatnot I have, yes? [05:06] i know i am nub :D [05:06] yes. [05:06] Jordan_U: Jaunty, recently upgraded, but I've rebooted since then. [05:06] So that should be fairly large [05:06] but you also need to give your distro room to grow if you plan on installing a bunch of stuff [05:06] Does the Intel® 945GC express chipset work well with Ubuntu? [05:06] I can know the exact directry where stage is [05:07] Right [05:07] and don't forget about your swap partition [05:07] 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] Got that [05:07] realistically, you could probably be good with say a 100gig home partition [05:07] when I input the exact directry [05:07] Would having them on separate partitions make things like compiling more complicated? [05:07] no [05:07] I have lived with a 72 gig HD and windows XP for a while. 100 gigs would be a step up [05:07] linux mounts a partition pretty much wherever you want [05:07] dewdude, you can usually set user in fstab to over ride for things like memory sticks etc... [05:07] It does worsk,also Error 15 [05:07] evanotten-- when dvd is in player... open vlc and click play.. [05:07] auto-mount [05:08] gnome generally handles things like that [05:08] mlissner, I assume that you rebooted immediately after the upgrade finished, and it was working after the first boot after upgrading? [05:08] ltgg: I can't think of anything :/ [05:08] ok now an open screen is up [05:08] Has anyone else been having getting sound to work in Flash since upgrading to 9.04? [05:08] *shrugs* i still do a lot of stuff like that in console [05:08] guys, just want toknow how to fix grub? [05:08] flash worked for me in 9.04 [05:08] !grub | dien [05:08] dien: GRUB is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost GRUB after installing Windows? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreGrub - GRUB how-tos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto [05:08] And the menu.lst not contain root(hdX,Y) [05:08] Jordan_U: yep [05:08] what's the .deb containing the nvidia drivers called? [05:09] CuriosTiger: why? [05:09] I can get video to work, but sound seems to be a problem. Sound works everywhere else aside from in flash. [05:09] What should I do,how to fix my grub? [05:09] sebsebseb: It doesn't seem to have downloaded the binary driver properly, I was gonna retry it manually with apt-get [05:09] Anyone found a way to make external (usb/esata) ntfs partitions mount without having to sudo them? [05:09] 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] 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] CuriosTiger: find it in synaptic and install like that? [05:09] ltgg: that's the driver you were using before [05:10] 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] 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] CuriosTiger: There are multiple .deb files required for manual installation [05:10] 10 gig is all the OS is likely to need, huh? [05:10] su -i === prassst is now known as friendster [05:10] asiks: 10G is more than enough...

[05:14] !compiz | ieatnoobs [05:14] ieatnoobs: Compiz (compositing window manager), for a howto see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompositeManager and more help #compiz-fusion [05:15] <^Phantom^> I really need a player that supports winamp's input plugins. are there any for ubuntu? [05:15] 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] 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] musikgoat: Idk what my prollem is. [05:15] nope, modprobe nvidia is still unhappy [05:15] ^Phantom^, no. look, tell me what format you need and i'll track you down a player [05:15] which could have to do with those other packages [05:15] 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] what kind of plugins [05:15] scunizi: Still current in forceware 180.51 ? [05:15] .ast? [05:15] oh [05:15] 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] ^Phantom^: see my PM [05:15] <^Phantom^> .ast, .brstm. strm [05:15] That doesn't say anything about my problem [05:16] i have no clue what those are [05:16] CuriosTiger: not sure.. there is a work a round.. but I forgot what it was [05:16] has anyone gotten any jaunty updates since the frozen RC? [05:16] oh, Wii soundtracks [05:16] losher: what is root1 and root2? [05:16] um hi new here [05:16] billybigrigger, Set the ip that the domain points to to your server's public IP [05:16] 8.04 Hardy Sound must be fixed. Beep is loud and it is past midnight. Can't be disturbing other people. [05:16] i have a 10 gig mount point /, the swap is 4630MB, What would root2 be for? [05:17] i have a question about partitioning... [05:17] can anybody help? [05:17] 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] I am asking about partioning, too. it is a party! [05:17] Can anyone help with my Compiz issue? [05:17] asiks: forget root2.. no need [05:17] 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] unkmar, "sudo rmmod pcspkr" should stop the beep entirely [05:17] scunizi: I'll take a look. Thanks. [05:17] musikgoat|main: I recommend two root partitions [05:17] so um i'm trying to get a partion for ubuntu [05:18] by using the vista partioning tool [05:18] Musikgoat: That page didn't help [05:18] HAH [05:18] billybigrigger, Yup [05:18] scunizi: it's optional, but it makes upgrades sooo easy [05:18] and i have two pieces of unalloacted space [05:18] the best you might be able to do is create freespace for a partition [05:18] CuriosTiger: search synaptic for envyng-qt and install it. That's how I got it to work. [05:18] ieatnoobs-- try shutting it off and rebooting and turning it back on.....sometimes works [05:18] Can I still use gparted to resize these partitions later if I need to? [05:18] is there anyway i can combine them? [05:18] Jordan_U: thank you. I'll put it back later. [05:18] xcell: If I start it my screen goes black. [05:18] Ascendancy: Just shrink your vista stuff, and let the partitioner on the install CD take care of partiioning the unallocated space. [05:18] 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] what is a fast way to produce the equivalent to the alt character of windows in ubuntu [05:18] ieatnoobs: the ubottu message was more to point to the compiz channel [05:18] maybe re-install compix? [05:19] 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] compiz [05:19] so flannel: does it matter if i have two pieces of space that are seperated? [05:19] didn't help [05:19] nvidia? [05:19] sdtr443w, Why are you choosing "NETBOOT" and what recovery CD? You should be using the "recovery mode" option from the grub menu [05:19] 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] 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] ieatnoobs: did you ask for help in #compiz-fusion ? [05:19] unkmar, i had the same issue with a broadcom wifi card earlier in Jaunty [05:19] hi, need help with my printer [05:19] Musikgoat: Thanks! [05:19] 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. [05:20] 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] i'm trying to find the page i used [05:20] dewdude: did you get it fixed? [05:20] any one here from BUUG ? [05:20] unkmar: you should just be able to run $ sudo apt-get install b43-fwcutter | and it would extract everything for u [05:20] unkmar, i'm online aren't i? ;) [05:20] lol [05:20] ...b43-fwcutter was in apt? and here i went and compiled it [05:20] can anyone help me out with why my google starts up then shuts down? [05:20] sdtr443w, The recovery mode option shouldn't say anything about netboot IIRC [05:20] lol [05:20] dewdude: I'm onlnie and might isn't fixed. not a great indicator. [05:20] Doesn't seem like there is anyone active there. [05:20] Ascendancy: It's not ideal, but it can work, yes. [05:20] Jordan_U: Basically anything off the recovery mode option that tried to go to a shell would ask for my root password. [05:20] hey can ubuntu use two seperate pieces of unpartioned space, or does it need it to be a single piece? [05:20] MK131: I did that earlier. [05:20] oh ok thanks [05:20] hi, need help with my printer, i don't know how install the driver for scan, i used ubuntu 9.04 64bits [05:21] google earth that is [05:21] Would setting aside a partition that ubuntu and windows could both see be a bad idea? like in ntfs? [05:21] Is there anyone who is good with Flash problems in this channel :) ? [05:21] unkmar, did you put them in /lib/firmware [05:21] Flannel: would there be a way to combine the space? or is it more hassle than its worth? [05:21] sdtr443w, That's odd, is this a fairly standard install? [05:21] 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] asiks: i have one set up like that [05:21] Ascendancy: you might be able to, yes. I'm not terribly familiar with windows partitioners though. [05:21] asiks: that's actually a good idea [05:21] I had that with ubuntu 8. I don't see Ntfs on the list of formats here though [05:22] 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] I Fixed my problem by reinstalling ubuntu 9.04 this time i did not do a dual boot. [05:22] Flannel: Ok i'll come back after i've installed ubuntu [05:22] Haallllpppp..... [05:22] lol wish me luck [05:22] Ascendancy, i seem to remember at some point with the vista partitioner being able to "move" the partitions/free space blocks around [05:22] dewdude: how do you do it? [05:22] sdtr443w, Ok, what is this recovery CD you were talking about? [05:22] dewdude: MK131, I have b43 and b43legacy in /lib/firmware [05:22] asiks: a common ntfs partition should work fine... [05:23] Ascendancy, i honestly don't remember [05:23] does ntfs have another name? [05:23] hi is ltsp included in 9.04 desktop version or in the server edtion? [05:23] haha ok [05:23] asiks: don't think so, why? [05:23] thx anyway [05:23] i see ext2-4, fat16, fat32 , jfs, xfs, reiserfs [05:23] asiks: ntfs-3g [05:23] acp_: I think you can install it regardless [05:23] 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] Jordan_U: A 9.04 LiveCD [05:24] is one of those aka ntfs? [05:24] asiks: nvm my statement, thought you were apt-getting stuff [05:24] asiks, Unless you are on the LiveCD you need to install ntfsprogs [05:24] asiks: no [05:24] I am using the live cd [05:24] dewdude: the cutter program simply ran. [05:24] sdtr443w, Do you know what a chroot is? [05:24] 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 [05:25] that's odd because i made an ntfs partition with ubuntu 8 [05:25] 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] 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] unkmar, hold on, i know that page is around somewhere [05:25] unkmar: do you have broadcom STA driver installed? [05:25] well, the drive had an xp partition on it that i shrunk. I suppose that is a different process [05:25] 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] asiks: using gparted? [05:25] yeah [05:25] MK131: I don't even know what that is. [05:26] 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] 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] Maybe if i leave it unallocated and then boot from the disk, gparted might be able to set it to that? [05:26] dewdude: http://pastebin.com/m4ae62949 [05:26] 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] dewdude: wrong paste. [05:26] 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] sdtr443w, Ok, can you just edit your xorg.conf and add: Driver "vesa" To your device section? [05:26] go to System-> Administration -> Hardware Drivers and see if the STA driver is enabled [05:26] dewdude: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx/Harhttps://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx/Hardydy [05:26] unkmar, http://linuxwireless.org/en/users/Drivers/b43 <- that page told me pretty much exactly what to do [05:26] sdtr443w, pastebin the xorg.conf [05:27] Jordan_U: Yes that seems to be about all I can do. Re: pastebin--hold on [05:27] it told me how to identify what chip i had...which version of what i needed to get and so on. [05:27] unkmar: go to System-> Administration -> Hardware Drivers and see if the STA driver is enabled [05:27] asiks: . 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] 这里有讲中文的吗？ [05:28] losher, IIRC ntfs now shows up as ntfs-3g [05:28] jinxed: install windows first then leave a partition for ubuntu [05:28] !cn | leos [05:28] 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] 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] asiks: btw, which distro are you gonna install? [05:28] 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] Helllllp? Ubuntu crashed while updating itself a little over a week ago and now I can't access the Internet! [05:28] Jordan_U: http://paste.ubuntu.com/159029/ [05:28] MK131: I can't... Was running fluxbuntu 7.10 and upgraded. still running fluxbuntu, but now 8.04, most the same rules should apply, Minus any GUI things. [05:28] 9.04 [05:28] 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 [05:28] Anyone can help? [05:28] Anyone else having problems playing any videos after an upgrade 9.04? I treid vlc, toem, and mplayer, purged all of the above and reinstalled. Whenever I try to play it opens then crashes [05:28] hi, do i need the alternate install or will the regular do? [05:29] ：（ [05:29] Logomachist, Does anything happen when you run "sudo dpkg --configure -a" ? ( if it does please pastebin the output ) [05:29] what was jordan's suggestion? I think i missed it [05:29] asiks: you understand 9.04 is not quite stable? [05:29] Adobe air is pretty extreme. [05:29] I know it's new [05:29] hello [05:29] is this working? [05:29] losher: 9.04 is a release, not a distro. Ubuntu is the "distro" [05:29] toss in a question billy [05:29] asiks: jordan say you can download the ntfsprogs and format ntfs using it.... [05:29] I missed that [05:30] tritium: corrected, thanks... [05:30] hello? can anyone see this? [05:30] losher: why do you think the latest stable release is not stable? [05:30] billybigrigger, no [05:30] Jordan_U, this is wierd [05:30] billybigrigger: of course not [05:30] billybigrigger, Ask your question :) [05:30] my router is reporting my ip address as 0.0.0.0 and i cannot ping google or view and www sites, but im still connected to irc [05:31] tritium: 'cos I installed it, and had some problems. Because lots of people have been here asking for help with their 9.04 install... [05:31] billybigrigger: there's only 1400+ of us here waiting to answer questions [05:31] Would anyone be able to help me? [05:31] i've tried renewing dhcp and everything, still an ip of 0.0.0.0 [05:31] losher: people are in here asking for help every day [05:31] That's what the channel is for. [05:31] This is the (help) channel. [05:31] billy, what type of router/service is it [05:32] cornwall: seems you need the linux-restricted-drivers package [05:32] asiks: to recap, root1, root2, extended, home, ntfs, swap [05:32] billybigrigger, what ip does "ifconfig" show ( please don't flood the channel with all of the output from ifconfig though ) [05:32] which is not installed by the GUI utilities [05:32] kathe: use full nicks with TAB for auto completion.. otherwise it won't highlight for him [05:32] Jordan_U, well i image ifconfig would show my local eth0 ip of 192.168.1.101 [05:32] Jordan_U, ill check though [05:32] thx scunizi [05:32] Jordan_U, ya its 192.168.1.101 [05:32] Jordan_U: Ah well I'm going to try booting into that xorg.conf. I won't see anything for 10 minutes or so if I have to boot back off the liveCD. [05:32] kathe: :) [05:32] kathe: Do you know how to get a fresh install of vista buisnes... i have one right now... but I need to recover to a fresh start [05:32] CuriosTiger: That fixed it? [05:33] kathe: i am currently using a lenovo t400 [05:33] wow, 9.04 finaly got me away from windows completely, don't know, just something about it this time around [05:33] hey i was wondering if someone might be able to walk me through getting a dvd to play, it has menu's and for some reason shows the initial screen but not the main menu, i have dl'd vlc, kmplayer, ogle, and gxine can someone help me out for a few minutes on private chat? [05:33] Jordan_U, i can ping within the local network no problem, pinging google.com or ubuntu.com results in nothing, my linksys webadmin page shows ip of 0.0.0.0 but im still connected to irc??? [05:33] HI, do i need the alternate install for RAID disks? the regular one won't work? [05:33] jinxed, if you have a disk, just insert it during boot and run from the disk [05:33] is it possible to select different dekstop backgrounds in each desktop window in the cube effect ? [05:33] Some people do speak Chinese [05:33] billybigrigger, Normally the address 0.0.0.0 is not really an ip address but a way of saying "default gateway" [05:34] what is bounds.s ? [05:34] Tossing this one out again hoping for a response [05:34] 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 [05:34] billybigrigger, If your computer is set as the default gateway on your router then nothing will ever get to the internet, if that is indeed what is happening I have no idea how you are here though :) [05:35] hello everyone everytime I try and listen to music from the livecd of 9.04 it says it cant find a plugin do I have to download it from a certain site or something. it wont do it automatically when it searchs [05:35] Jordan_U, its magically working now [05:35] Jordan_U, stupid routers haha [05:35] Need a suggestion: I'm about to dive into Drupal and am using my laptop with Ubuntu as it's platform. Should I go ahead with configuring a complete LAMP setup or just go with XAMPP? I don't plan on serving off this system, just for development before uploading to my bluehost server [05:35] Jordan_U, i dont know whats going on, everything i have setup through the router works fine, i just lost my internet kind of, but i stayed on irc? it was wierd, everythings working ok now for some magical reason :P [05:35] anyones knows what is bounds.s ??? [05:36] sdtr443w, Get rid of the "1920x1200" You are never going to get that with vesa, in fact let me make you a minimal vesa config [05:36] Locum: might have better luck in ##Linux [05:36] billybigrigger, Probably your DNS server went down [05:36] I'm not sure how to get internet working from recovery mode...? I tried adding the following two lines, auto eth0 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? [05:36] factum thanks [05:36] sure thing [05:37] billybigrigger, You could probably have reached google.com if your computer had only known the ip :) [05:37] possible to have different background in different desktop windows in cube effect? [05:37] hey i was wondering if someone might be able to walk me through getting a dvd to play, it has menu's and for some reason shows the initial screen but not the main menu, i have dl'd vlc, kmplayer, ogle, and gxine can someone help me out for a few minutes on private chat? [05:37] Freeyorp, "dhclient eth0" [05:37] Jordan_U, true [05:38] I have remote desktop installed on my ubuntu server. what do I need on the other machines so I can access them? [05:38] evanotten: sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras [05:39] HI, do i need the alternate install for RAID disks? the regular one won't work? [05:39] what will that install? [05:39] codecs [05:40] evanotten-- i was under the assumption you had those installed [05:40] Does anyone have any experience with using UCK(Ubuntu Customization Kit)? [05:40] anyone here familiar with registering/setting up a domain??? do i have to enter my isp's nameservers? or how do i get my domain to attach to my IP address??? its with godaddy.com if that helps, i can't seem to find too much help from them [05:40] nope i am nub [05:41] i'm having a problem where my laptop will only resume from suspend once [05:41] ugh evolution is broke as fuck [05:41] the first resume works perfect, after that i just get a black screen [05:41] install them and it all should work then [05:41] Jordan_U: I get a list of "DHCPDISCOVER: on eth0 to 255.255.255.255 port 67 interval 7" and "send_packet: Network is down" messages after that [05:41] ok cool will try thank you [05:41] y/w [05:41] Anyone anygood at sound cards? [05:42] Freeyorp -> is your cable okay? snug fit? [05:43] Jordan_U: Yes, in tightly at both ends [05:43] Jordan_U: I can try connecting through a liveCD if you like...? [05:43] Freeyorp, And you did "ifconfig eth0" before "dhclient eth0" ? [05:43] Jordan_U: Yes [05:44] Freeyorp -> you sure your router/dhcp server is up and active and serving on the correct port? [05:44] Freeyorp, Sorry, I meant "ifconfig eth0 up" === eugen is now known as Guest62638 [05:45] hey, I have a usb device, but I'm unable to connect to it, how do I check to see if its working probperly [05:45] Its listed when I do "lsusb" [05:45] Guest62638 -> does dmesg shows it too?

I swear I think the guys at ubuntu was like "Hey lets have a multiverse of beta testers" and one idiot in the room was like YEA! [05:55] asiks: I'd say it's rather slow/indecent.... 9.04? [05:56] I get error when I try to install the vm from sun: "Sorry and error occured" [05:56] Guest62638: Did it ever occur to you that the hour or three you spend making this work so you can load your calculator with finals answers, you could have just learned the material?

[05:56] 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 [05:56] Yes mase [05:56] Guest62638: did you uninstall the old vbox? [05:56] AK_Dave:...its not final ansewers...

I am trying to change the root password for the mysql sever. I keep getting 'Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: NO)' If this is not the right channel to discuss this I apologize; where should I discuss this? [05:58] Advance: thats odd. i think i have that card and mine is working fine. 10 secs and i'll have a look [05:58] asiks: the general consensus on 9.04 is that it's a little slower than 8.X, unless you use ext4, which has other problems [05:58] mase_work: My compiz doesn't work.. Nothing works I'm going back to 8.10 later on this evening and just saying forget it for a few months.. till all of the bugs are worked out and put up in repositorys.. [05:58] Advance: Back in my day, we used to use really sharp pencils and write tiny on small pieces of paper. I had a physics exam which ALLOWED a 3x5 index card of "notes" for the test, and you'd be amazed what you can fit on both sides of a 3x5 if you use multiple layers of different colored inks. [05:58] i just changed over to ext4 [05:59] Freeyorp, My guess is that you don't have a default gateway set for some reason, does "route -n" show a default gateway ( is there a route with 0.0.0.0 in the destination column )? [05:59] What is a good package to edit video in ubuntu?

[05:59] Advance: I'm not quite that old, but my professors all used slide rules. In class. [06:00] b14ck: check out the application: DeVeDe [06:00] b14ck-- a simple one might be devede [06:00] Guest62638: anyways, you have to uninstall the version from the repos before you can install the version from SunOracle. [06:00] AK_Dave: oh LIES you know you still have your handy dandy slide rule in a shoe box under your bed... right next to the crystal storage unit your waiting for the world to be ready for [06:00] mattgyver: I've used Kdenlive successfully before, but like a lot of other linux applications its very buggy [06:00] AK_Dave: Lol at SunOracle [06:00] Advance: are you under my bed, sniffing my packets?

Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out? [06:01] Advance: My cat took an aerodump under my bed once. [06:01] in 9.04 [06:01] Jordan_U: 'route -n' shows "192.168.0.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0 eth0" beneath "Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use Iface" [06:01] AK_Dave: I did that and its still not working, I tried downloading and installing the i386 version as well and still didn't work === izibi__ is now known as izibi [06:01] AK_Dave: Oh thats what this is.. You really should clean down here [06:01] Guest62638: what OS are you installing on? [06:02] mase_work: thx [06:02] I just upgraded to 9.04 and wireless doesn't really work.... it shows as connected, but nothing happens. I'm on vista right now talking to you just fine... so what is up with 9.04 wireless? [06:02] AK_Dave: So what do you think about the NOM by oracle.. How long before their hardware becomes dilluted and we lose the shi- I mean wonder that is Sun microsystems hardware [06:02] kubuntu [06:03] OK, wireless connects but is capped at 1Mb/s. wired is 100 Mb/s. connection will also drop out from time to time. [06:03] hey later on down the road will there be support for RS690M ati x1200 [06:03] Guest62638: Kubuntu. Which version? Jaunty? Intrepid? Hardy? [06:03] mattgyver: for simple edits, I use avidemux. I find it's very stable... [06:03] Freeyorp, That just means that you are directly connected to that network, do you know what the default gateway should be ? ( it's often the first or last usable ip address, so 192.168.0.1 or 192.168.0.254 ) [06:04] AK_Dave: latest (the one that came out few days ago) jaunty? (i guess) === baskingshark is now known as paul68 [06:04] AK_Dave:http://i39.tinypic.com/1627m94.jpg [06:04] Guest62638: Scroll down to where it says to add this to your sources.list file [06:04] deb http://download.virtualbox.org/virtualbox/debian intrepid non-free [06:04] Jordan_U: I can look that up on this computer, which is on the same network, would that have the same effect? [06:04] Okay people I'm out to DESTROY JAUNTY and put me back to Intrepid Ibex.. You know so I can have the pretty that once was on my linux box [06:05] Guest62638: Add the line to sources.list and then follow the remaining instructions. Do not install the .deb but instead install from apt-get. Follow those instructions [06:05] there's STILL no 64 bit flash player for linux ???? [06:05] goodmorning is there a way that I can tell thunderbird to use smtp server A when I am at home and smtp server B when I am at work?

[06:37] celthunder, i added the assistnant and the hardware was picked up [06:37] of course, I'm assuming that somebody has actually managed to successfully preseed with software raid.

[06:45] !ask [06:45] Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line, so others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) [06:45] I've searched the forums, but they all seem to end up with GUI based solutions; I'm in recovery (command line) mode so I can't follow that... [06:46] i like ubuntu [06:46] mhalligan: Hmm. I haven't done RAID in the preseed file. Have done LVS though. Lemme look at my preseed file... [06:46] wolf set the name of your vm where it says put it in a text file and chmod +x it and then run it [06:46] yeah LVM seems to work well [06:46] mhalligan: LVM I mean. [06:46] thank u....i have internet connection problem...my modem can dialup using wvdial but cant surf using firefox...do you know the solution? [06:47] thoughI'm starting to feel I'm doing something stupid here. if I look at /tmp/expert_recipe it seems to not have the partitioning recipe [06:47] Wich is the command to restart X ? [06:47] rope: ctrl-alt-backspace ? [06:47] mhalligan: Not working :( [06:48] !dontzap | rope [06:48] rope: To re-enable the Ctrl+Alt+Backspace combination that restarts your X server, you can install the "dontzap" package and use the command « sudo dontzap --disable » [06:48] thank u....i have internet connection problem...my modem can dialup using wvdial but cant surf using firefox...do you know the solution?....please... [06:48] doleyb: Thanks [06:48] hyperstation -> is your route table okay? [06:49] Well I wasted my whole evening screwing up my X11 setup only to discover my X1950 is considered "old" and was dropped. [06:49] My hp laptop is driving me crazy >:( [06:49] hyperstation -> also you are using the correct name server to resolve ? [06:49] Freeyorp: maybe tldp instructions can help you more. or #linux or #networking [06:49] rope restart x? ctrl+alt+f2 login, ps aux |grep gnome-session;kill -9 [06:49] then just run startx again [06:49] mhalligan: Yeah, I don't know, I just use the "atomic" recipe. [06:50] is there a website to synchronize with tomboy ? [06:50] hello i am new [06:50] anyone where can help me with my indicator-applet? [06:50] kenyon: ahh. yeah. ubuntu is feeling just too desktop focused to be a serious server OS [06:50] i can only connect to my ftp locally (on the same network) using the lan address, not the wan ip, how do i configure it to allow me to connect remotely? [06:50] its not starting up properly, and I dont know how to re-enable it [06:50] hai... [06:51] doleyb: Installed dontzap and made sudo dontzap --disable but still doesnt work [06:51] n0ah using NAT? [06:51] sorry i m still newbie for this case...actually after dialling using wvdial, i can use x gnome for chatting...but i cant browse using FF [06:51] there's a router, so yes [06:51] Hia Cinta [06:51] celtthunder [06:51] mhalligan: You might try debian. We always hand-build our ubuntu servers. Just the desktop installs are preseeded. [06:51] My videos in VLC are no longer being played in the main window. It's popping up in a separate one. What can I do to fix this? [06:51] kenyon: I've got 300 servers to install :) [06:52] n0ah just cause theres a router doesnt mean you have NAT on, but anyway um port forwarding on? is your machine in the dmz or in the internal lan? [06:52] hiiiiiiii [06:52] Hi all, I recently installed kubuntu-deskptop on Ubuntu 8.10 and since then i cannot connect to the internet using wireless. it was working perfectly when it was Ubuntu... please help [06:52] and then probably another 2k VMs over the next 6 months [06:52] sorry i m still newbie for this case...actually after dialling using wvdial, i can use x gnome for chatting...but i cant browse using FF [06:52] celthunder ooooh yeah :P [06:52] thanks [06:52] Has anyone here with an X1xxx series ATI card installed jaunty yet? [06:52] Hai Cinta [06:52] hiiiiiiii [06:52] mhalligan: Ahh, well, definitely worth figuring it out then. There are other automated installer solutions too, btw. [06:52] aka RS690M chipset [06:52] how to use song bird player [06:52] ??????? [06:52] for a good decade now I've avoided Debian because it's never had a robust automated installation system, I was hoping Ubuntu would be different [06:53] join [06:53] kenyon: well there's FAI.. the last time I did an FAI attempt was 4 years ago, and was pretty frustratingly bad because debian/ubuntu were just starting to realize "hey, most of the server world is starting to use x86_64" [06:53] mhalligan: What ubuntu has is nearly identical to what debian has. [06:53] g ngapain [06:54] kenyon: my main hope was that with Canonical, ther ewould actually be a company trying to compete with redhat in the server market.. *detests redhat* [06:54] tarus--->indonesian? [06:54] Hai Cinta [06:54] Little problem here. Formated the / partition of a computer which hard ubuntu8.04 and installed Xubuntu9.04. [06:54] anybody here use ATI with jaunty? [06:54] Saving the /home partition [06:54] can someone please help me with my indicator applet? [06:54] mhalligan: Yeah, true. Well, good luck getting it working. [06:54] i install the nvida drivers but when I reboot, I keep getting reverted to a lower graphics setting [06:54] helloo.... [06:54] hiiiiiiiii [06:54] now wants to start graphic sesion with gnome. [06:54] anyone know of a work around? [06:55] IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIiii [06:55] kenyon: yeah.. the frustrating part is having to debug everything myself. I'd very happily drop coin on someone who could just say "oh, this is where you're being stupid" [06:55] can someone please help me with my indicator applet? [06:55] at my hourly rate, I've burned a good $6k on this problem in the past 2 weeks [06:55] LolO galo [06:55] .. I like getting paid, of course, but not paid to spin my wheels :( [06:55] Hi Everyone. Does anyone know of another good email client apart from evolution? [06:55] thurston: thunderbird [06:55] hiiiiiiiii [06:55] thurston depends on what you arel ooking for in your client [06:55] can someone please help me with my indicator applet? [06:55] tarus hi [06:55] thank u....i have internet connection problem...my modem can dialup using wvdial but cant surf using firefox...do you know the solution? [06:56] thank u....i have internet connection problem...my modem can dialup using wvdial but cant surf using firefox...do you know the solution? [06:56] Where is the login file at /home? [06:56] hey i know previous versions of ubuntu used to suffer from aggresive hard drive power management issues, has this been fixed? [06:56] thank u....i my modem can dialup using wvdial but cant surf using firefox...do you know the solution? [06:56] can someone please help me with my indicator applet? [06:56] mhalligan, are all the servers the same (or nearly the same ) hardware wise? [06:56] celthunder: each server within a class is the same, 6 classes of servers [06:57] !patience | hyperstation [06:57] hyperstation: The people here are volunteers, your attitude should reflect that. Answers are not always available. See http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines [06:57] how do I start xfce desktop on terminal mode? [06:57] celthunder: I am looking for something that can replicate Outlook. I am new to UBUNTU (since 01/04/2009) [06:57] mhalligan, do 6 different installs and then just clone the drive put 32 drives in a server and clone 31 at a time? [06:57] thurston: Evolution? [06:57] celthunder: hahaha, cute. [06:57] can someone please help me with my indicator applet? [06:58] mhalligan, might have some issues but ....basic principal should work [06:58] m0u5e: you could try a more detailed question. [06:58] celthunder: that's just not how it's done anymore [06:58] mhalligan, better than doing 300 indivisually [06:58] doleyb: ive tried... no one responds :( [06:58] I want to start XFCE, I am on the recovery mode with only terminal. What is the command? [06:58] doleyb: my indicator applet wont startup up, period. [06:58] doleyb: i've tried everything, reinstalling it, adding it to my panel... etc [06:59] faryshta, startxfce4 or something [06:59] celthunder: well, more likely it's "do I fight with preseed, do I fight with FAI, do I give up on ubuntu and stick with something insufficient (rpm-based) that actually installs, or do I write my own custom installer?" [06:59] m0u5e: what applet is it even? [06:59] doleyb: it used to work, then it crashed and doesnt want to work again... when i uninstalled it, i think it removed itself from the startup application list... but now the script that starts it up wont come back [06:59] seriously, the last datacenter I built out was 600 servers, and I never actually saw any of them after the contractors installed them :) [06:59] celthunder, thanks that was it. [06:59] doleyb: the indicator-applet is the little mail icon sitting in the tray that reports information abuot apps that use notify-osd [07:00] *about [07:00] doleyb: if you have the script that is in the startup application list... that would be a nice start :D [07:00] anyone ever figure out how to fix our hp laptop speakers? [07:00] lol [07:00] ;( [07:01] hrm, or do it the hackish way. build without raid, then have puppet do ugliness to make raid happen. [07:01] * mhalligan slaps himself [07:01] * AK_Dave likes letting puppets do his work for him [07:02] ok, just ask once....do you know how to solve FF problems that cant browse although dialup connection has been established by wvdial and can ping/chat??? [07:02] AK_Dave: aye, but I usually let Puppet lose after all of the basics (partitioning, volume creation, OS installation, and network configuration) have been done. [07:03] also, does anyone know how to upgrade to 9.04 if i am using the 9.04 beta? [07:04] n0ah: sudo aptitude update && sudo aptitude full-upgrade [07:04] n0ah, just do apt-get update;apt-get upgrade;apt-get dist-upgrade [07:04] n0ah: sudo aptitude update && sudo aptitude full-upgrade [07:04] or what he said [07:04] kenyon: jinx :D [07:04] hey can anyone help me troubleshoot appearence prefs? i have a nvidia 9800 and the correct driver seems to be enabled. however, i cant select "extra" under visual effects. the message is "desktop effects could nopt be enabled" [07:04] lol, thanks all [07:04] I lost sound with a fresh install of jaunty on my thinkpad x60...anyone know how to fix it? [07:05] Hello there [07:05] mbishop: lost sound is one of commonest complaints I've seen on here with jaunty. Go to ubuntoforums.org and search for '9.04 sound' and you'll find plenty (to many) of solutions [07:06] My "System Monitor" applet is showing continues network actifity [07:06] 'too many', pardon my americanese... [07:06] blackdex ok so your using the network?' [07:06] can someone do me a favor and go to system>preferences startup applications and copy paste the script for indicator-applet for me? [07:06] i need that startup script again :( [07:06] celthunder: Well i only have a 100Mb/s connection [07:06] and the speed is 1GB/s or higher :p [07:07] is there any good keyloggers for ubuntu? === mattgyver is now known as mattgyver|a [07:07] BlackDex, install wireshark and watch hwere your traffic is going or look at netstat and try to guess [07:07] celthunder: That i did [07:07] can someone do me a favor and go to system please? [07:07] also used netwacht en iftop [07:08] woa, ok I have a major issue, a buddy with a couple years experience has been trying to help but we've gotten nowhere [07:08] any ideas why i cant enable visual effects [07:08] darn my english is worse [07:08] can someone do me a favor and go to system mhalligan: I wish I could have a sockpuppet as a proxy at work, but that won't work for me. [07:08] Hi all. Is there a way to log POST data with apache (running Ubuntu 8.04)? It's a Apache 2.2 server with all traffic going to a Tomcat 5.5 server (mod_jk), SSL encrypted === mattgyver|a is now known as mattgyver [07:08] wrektjet: What graphics card do you have? [07:08] Does anyone know how to unlock PCM on Alsamixer? I can't raise or lower the volume. [07:08] jaunty works with wireless bcm4311? [07:08] nvisia 9800 [07:08] but it seems there is nothing that is using network traffic at that speed [07:08] ak_dave: err... http://reductivelabs.com/products/puppet [07:08] basically we had a brand new machine that needed to have vista deleted off, so we did that with Ubuntu, but then the boss said it needed to have xp on it [07:08] faryshta: yes, usually, but you may need to tweak it. [07:08] Anybody there??// [07:09] can someone (who is running latest jaunty) do me a favor and go to system i beleive the correct driver is selected [07:09] mhalligan: I know what you meant. :) [07:09] ;) [07:09] m0u5e: sh -c "sleep 60 && python /usr/share/gnome-panel/add-indicator-applet.py" [07:09] BlackDex: thank you, you are my hero [07:09] np :) [07:09] BlackDex: i've been in here for like 6 hours :/ [07:09] i want to ssh to a remote server in root login. [07:09] AK_Dave, ok, will need to patch the kernel, compile a driver? [07:09] :| [07:09] How can i? [07:09] m0u5e: 3 days... [07:10] ubuntu prevents from logging to root right?? [07:10] wrektjet: What is your graphics card? Chances are the correct driver is selected [07:10] when i load the xp install disk, eventually it goes to a blue screen, "A problem has been detected and windows has been shut down to prevent damge..." [07:10] faryshta: No, maybe. === mike is now known as Guest40877 [07:10] is there any good keyloggers for ubuntu? [07:10] AK_Dave, what did you do to make it work? [07:10] losher: well im on and off :D [07:10] anyone know how to restart indicator applet after its died? :( [07:10] raddy: By default the root account is disabled [07:10] we've tried everything, repartitioning, formatting, it's acting all weird with ubcd can't really load some of the tools [07:11] m0u5e: me too.... [07:11] m0u5e: Re add the applet [07:11] m0u5e: what would you need it for? [07:11] BlackDex: nothing will come up [07:11] Stupendoussteve, i have nvidia 9800 i belive the correct driver is selected [07:11] BlackDex: it adds, and i see the process running, but nothing is there [07:11] and you can also run that script with an & appended to it [07:11] faryshta: I don't have that chipset but have helped people with it. Sometimes you have to change to a different kernel module than the one loaded by default. [07:12] wrektjet: What happens when you try to manually start compiz? (compiz --replace in the command line) [07:12] m0u5e: i thought i will only show something when there is something to shopw [07:12] can anyone here explain how to set up a bluetooth headset? [07:12] wait now i see that even normal effects dont work [07:12] BlackDex: yeah, but i have aim running... so it should show me stuff [07:12] AK_Dave, nevermind looks like the graphic installer did it all :P [07:12] only "none" [07:12] this solved my problem http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=7144625 [07:13] faryshta: Thats what I was hoping for. :) [07:13] Maybe you need to restart aim or enable a plugin? [07:13] that is what i needed to do for pidgin [07:13] Bad experiences from before, sorry AK_Dave. [07:13] faryshta: Thats okay. :) [07:13] I been using ubuntu since 6.10 and this is the first time everything JUST works so was unexpected. [07:14] egad, the update manager is harassing me... [07:14] what program handles removable media mount/unmount UI? there is a small interface bug I want to report, and I want to report it for the correct package. [07:14] Stupendoussteve, how would i do that [07:14] can anyone help me figure out how to make 8.04 recognise my hard drive at installation? [07:15] loomsen: because it no longer starts up by default... [07:15] please, can anyone help me figure out how to remove whatever is not letting my xp install disc load? [07:15] loomsen: adding it won't work either [07:15] hold on brb restarting [07:16] wrektjet: Open up the Terminal in Applications > Accessories and type in compiz --replace [07:16] Does anyone know how to unlock PCM on Alsamixer? I can't raise or lower the volume. [07:16] wrektjet: It should at least give an error if it doesn't work [07:16] does anyone here have a link to the ubuntu handbook? [07:16] wrektjet: If it fails and your windows lose their borders hit Alt F2 on the desktop and run metacity [07:16] xgl not present [07:17] should i pastepin [07:17] Cbc: it's unusual for a hard drive not to be recognised, unless there's a hardware problem. Can you say more about what does (and doesn't) happen? [07:17] wrektjet: Yes please [07:18] howdy guys... [07:18] :D [07:18] svensko: Which handbook? The Pocket Guide that is a free ebook or something else? [07:18] yes, pocket guide, i couldn't think of the correct name for it so google wasn't being very helpful [07:18] got an issue... anyone that can gimme a hand?

If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) [07:19] hi everybody [07:19] !ask :) [07:19] Sorry, I don't know anything about ask :) [07:19] svensko: It's ubuntupocketguide.com if you didn't get it :) [07:19] Stupendoussteve, http://paste.ubuntu.com/159097/ [07:20] I have upgraded to jaunty [07:20] but xserver dont start [07:21] wrektjet: Are you sure you're running the nvidia proprietary driver? [07:21] ok, here it goes... I got an ubuntu server 8.10 working as a gateway firewall with dns and dhcp... i got in my internal network an ftp server in win2k3 and i cannot reach it via web... i think i am doing something wrong, can anyone gimme a hand with the port forwarding settings? [07:21] wrektjet: Look through http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=596927 - This problem appears to be discussed there, including whitelisting the driver. [07:21] I have ATI Inc RV730 Sapphire X550 Silent card [07:21] has anyone had success setting up a bluetooth headset with ubuntu? and if so, how? [07:22] howdy, almost everything seems to be working nicely after my jaunty upgrade, except that when i wake from sleep, my keyboard is unresponsive. i'll certainly work on submitting or adding to a bug if one exists, but wonder if anyone has ideas about a quick fix, some kind of a rescue? [07:22] I'm running intrepid, using an usb joystick, when playing a game it doesn't seem like it is very sensitive......the joystick works great on the same computer under windows playing the same game [07:22] Kylerius: ftp isn't very firewall friendly as it uses ports randomly when doing data transfers. Did this ever work? [07:22] havent set the firewall yet [07:23] hope to get this running first, then i'll handle the firewall settings [07:23] Stupendoussteve, im pretty sure. how can i triple check [07:23] I'm having problems with pulseaudio and my microphone with 9.04 . [07:23] Kylerius: good idea. So can you ping the ftp server? [07:23] where are preinter setting stored in the filesystem? [07:23] what's the black box notification called? [07:24] wrektjet: It should say in System > Administration > Hardware Drivers [07:24] naught101: System->administration->Printer settings I think [07:24] lianimator: the notify-osd?

I'm at the ubcd stage at this point, no OS installed on a brand new comp [07:24] had to wipe hdd [07:24] Stupendoussteve: where can i configure it?

[07:27] sysdoc: same behaviour here, kinds odd, use: DISPLAY=:0.1 foobar to launch foobar in your other screen [07:28] lianimator: was installed for me by default i guess, dunno actually, been running jaunty since alpha 3 or 4 [07:28] lianimator: so not much of an initial install left [07:28] lianimator: (which i even did netbased) [07:29] does anyone know how to completly remove all the other implementations of java and just use the Sun one. I am trying to use Eclipse and it refuses to load if Sun Java is not loaded [07:29] i'm reformatting /, should i choose ext4? === deniz is now known as Guest96158 [07:29] loomsen, where to use DISPLAY=:0.1?? Sorry have never had to mess with this [07:29] halycon: i use to keep my java on a separate partition which i share between different os [07:30] I've heard ext4 is pretty fast, but I've also heard that it's a pain in the ass to fix if something goes wrong. [07:30] !gutsy [07:30] Ubuntu 7.10 (Gutsy Gibbon) was the seventh release of Ubuntu. End Of Life: April 18th, 2009. See !eol and !upgrade for more details. [07:30] !feisty [07:30] Ubuntu 7.04 (Feisty Fawn) was the sixth release of Ubuntu. End Of Life: October 19th, 2008. See !eol and !upgrade for more details. [07:30] soooooooo anyone for scramble later? This time I got no problems to solve with my installation and the pork flu made me stay at home. Thanks. [07:30] sysdoc: just prepend your command you'd wish to start on your second screen with that [07:30] sysdoc: i created an alias TV='DISPLAY=:0.1' [07:30] loomsen, thx [07:30] ;\ [07:31] sysdoc: so i'd do TV foobar for instance [07:31] my bad connection sure is taking it's time in dying [07:31] I think I see the problem [07:32] partman-auto-raid isn't actually included in the installer [07:32] anyway; can anyone help me figure out why my hard drive isn't showing up in the "prepare partitions" dialog when installing 8.04 on a SATA hd? [07:32] bug or feature? [07:32] what does disk partitioner mean by "use as" for fs type? if i have a ext2, i can use as ext4? [07:32] halycon: are you running on 64bit? i'd point you to my how to then [07:33] loomsen1, hey yeah I am running a 64bit version\ [07:34] I'm trying to make home directories invisible to all but their owner. So far, my experimentation either *doesn't* make them invisible, or locks out home directories even to their owners. I've come to the tentative conclusion that this is not going to be done with permissions. [07:34] halycon: there's definetely an easier way to provide it as well, but i prefer this one due to reasons i pointed out above [07:35] loomsen1, OK, so can I just add that to a launcher to get it to open in screen1? [07:35] how do i clear my swap [07:35] In 8.04 the firefox font was sans right? And in 9.04 the font is also sans and yet it is noticeable darker and more bold. What font is this? [07:35] turn it on and off what is the command [07:35] halycon: http://my.opera.com/community/forums/topic.dml?id=274073 [07:35] anyone familiar with the keyboard stopping working under Virtualbox windows guest in ubuntu host [07:35] it only happens when i leave the computer idle for a while [07:35] sysdoc: try :) [07:36] oh y.eah I have tried using the update-java-alternatives and it doesn't seem to work [07:36] loomsen1, did no joy [07:36] Haven't had that happen, UbbyCD. What veriosn of Windows? [07:36] xp [07:36] version, rather. [07:36] its weird it always happens when I leave for a bit and come back [07:36] loomsen1, really like the dual mouse pointer too, lol [07:36] is there a room for firefox linux support [07:36] hey guys - im having an issue with playing videos. this problem is in both vlc and mplayer - but a different one. on mplayer I have like a "diagonal distortion" on videos. in vlc theres a green stripe on the top and wrong colors. any ideas whats wrong? [07:36] Huh. Does the mouse still work, or is it a hard hang? [07:36] I can use it for hours on end no problems [07:37] no mouse clicks everything works fine [07:37] How much memory (not drive space) do you have allocated to the VM? [07:37] if i restart the virtualmachine it fixes [07:37] uhh i think 400 mb [07:37] i had 512 [07:37] I've noticed some pretty weird stuff if I go much above 192 MB with XP. [07:37] sysdoc: maybe your screens are set up different... you can find out with xdpyinfo | grep -i screen [07:37] but it was half of what i had so I changed it [07:37] let me do that [07:38] i'm trying to use transmission for a torrent and it wont connect and says the port is closed...can anyone help? [07:38] can anyone help me with my problem playing some divx movies? [07:38] Sunman, are you using 9.04 with Intel video hardware? [07:38] need help with partitioning! it failed partitioning ~/Music/ and i'm back at the partitioner [07:38] xdpyinfo |grep -i screen [07:38] MIT-SCREEN-SAVER [07:38] default screen number: 0 [07:38] number of screens: 1 [07:38] UbbyCD: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. [07:38] screen #0: [07:38] loomsen1, xdpyinfo reflects the correct config of the screens [07:39] chamlin: im using the previous version (8) and yes Intel [07:39] lianimator: Did you tell it to partition ~/Music? Tell it the absolute path /home/user/Music, for example [07:39] maybe i should turn the screensaver off? [07:39] i'm trying to use transmission for a torrent and it wont connect and says the port is closed...can anyone help? [07:39] cause its something triggered by idleness [07:39] sysdoc: and it doesnt work if you run DISPLAY:0.1 nautilus [07:39] anthony__, forward the port on your router"? [07:40] sysdoc: for instance? [07:40] its some stupid pointless matrix 3d thing that came preloaded [07:40] tried that [07:40] I think there's a post on ubuntuforums.org covering that issue with 8.10 and Intel hardware. From what I've been given to understand, it's worse in 9.04. Lemme see if I can find the post. [07:40] It depends on the hardware [07:40] Is there such thing as "too much swap?" [07:40] I have an intel card and it runs great [07:40] salam [07:40] FrozenFire: When it's more than you really need, you could call it that [07:40] sysdoc: DISPLAY=:0.1 nautilus [07:40] hate those matrix screensavers. Nobody seems to be able to put a good one together. [07:40] I have 4GB of RAM, with 6GB of swap. Is that too much swap? [07:40] sysdoc: missed the = [07:40] i'm wondering... does indicator-applet also depend on the evolution notify indicator as well? [07:40] loomsen1, bash: DISPLAY:0.1: command not found [07:40] FrozenFire, i usualy don't go more than 2gb swap [07:41] i re-enabled that, and everything is working again :X [07:41] i am beginer [07:41] whats a good thing to set the screensaver to on a laptop [07:41] FrozenFire: Probably. If you don't intend to hibernate or standby the system you need as much as you have ram, otherwise you could get by with less [07:41] Well, the question isn't really should I have added so much swap, it's should I shrink my swap partiton? [07:41] its a dell d600 do i have to worry about screen burn in? [07:41] *laptop [07:41] FrozenFire: how large is it? how much memory do you have [07:41] m0u5e: i am wondering, why would you use it? any reason? [07:41] *if you do intend, that is [07:41] loomsen1, OK that worked cool, let me see if it'll work in a launcher [07:41] m0u5e: 4GB RAM 6GB swap [07:41] UbbyCD: you dont have to worry about burning on most lcds [07:41] so, any idea on my problem with playing movies? [07:42] loomsen1: its needed for hibernation or for disk caching [07:42] FrozenFire: most people have the rule anywhere between 1.5-2.0x memory is good [07:42] ill try and trigger it again sometime and see if it actually is the screensaver. [07:42] thanks [07:42] hi, can someone point me to a good howto for fixing the MBR when windows overwrites grub [07:42] now to see if early_command actually gets run before partman [07:42] FrozenFire: as a general rule, i use 2x if i have the space, because then i am guaranteed able to hibernate [07:42] loomsen1, does not like it from a launcher [07:42] WHats up with excel? notepad files have correct permissions when a new one is made in a samba folder, but excel files always come up with 0700 permission [07:42] wireless connection disconnects frequently in jaunty! anyone also? [07:42] m0u5e: So I'm fine. I was just reading up, and someone hinted that the swap might count somehow towards the physical addressing limit of 32bit. I didn't think it did, but wanted to be absolutely sure I wasn't missing something. [07:43] sysdoc: try and wrap the command into " " [07:43] FrozenFire: it shouldnt [07:43] FrozenFire: think of swap like pagefiling in windows [07:43] FrozenFire: pagefiling+hiber.sys lol [07:43] m0u5e: I know how swap works, quite well really. I just wasn't sure if there was some quirk in the Linux VM [07:43] Still looking for the post, Sunman. [07:44] hi [07:44] !mbr [07:44] GRUB is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost GRUB after installing Windows? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreGrub - GRUB how-tos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto [07:44] loomsen1, no joy [07:44] sysdoc: bummer, you're oughta wait and run it manually till they fix it then i guess [07:45] loomsen1, yea, that sucks lol [07:45] How would I go about cloning/copying a linux install from one drive to another? [07:45] chamlin, thanks. this happens very rarely, most movies work, but a few dont [07:45] How would I fix my XP boot after I uninstalled Wubi and it still gives me the option of Ubuntu or Windows XP? Do I have to run fixmbr from the windows XP disk in recovery console ? [07:46] sysdoc: it's annoying, indeed, but at least you know how to watch your movies on your TV now ^^ [07:46] how do i install amarok 1.*.* in 9.04? [07:46] Hi, I am having problems with natulius, I dont think its starting on startup.

[07:46] loomsen1, bug has been around since the beta [07:47] psychic there is no root account [07:47] ah [07:47] sysdoc: since alpha even [07:47] No worries, Sunman. I had a similar issue a while back, and I'm trying to recall what I did about it. Unfortunately, I keep finding posts which point to a filed bug, but don't detail a workaround. Still searching... === sumatra is now known as IDontKnow [07:47] why does ubuntu have so many apps run in htop it says 151 when i am only using 2??? === IDontKnow is now known as Guest95853 [07:47] Is it even possible?

I'm not to familiar with them but I think the os keeps track of how many "file names" point to the same thing and only remove the data when nothing points to it any more.. but as I said..

I think most distros has the lsb modules [08:21] anyone know how to get the flash plugin for sites like hulu [08:21] I'd like to uninstall ruby-full, if I can, but I'm unsure if I need it for rubygems. [08:21] !flash [08:21] To install Flash see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/Flash (a recent version for !Dapper is available in !backports) - See also !Restricted and !Gnash [08:21] Any clever people know the answer? [08:22] wrektjet get the restricted extras [08:22] oki no, they just worked on compatibility so the 100 dpi fonts look very sharp now [08:22] hello everyone. I am so close now, but I am still stuck. I finally get a list of partitions when I get a "kernel panic - unable to mount root fs on unknown block" error. So, I picked an empty one that it ext3. But now I get a error that says something about there being no init and to pass an init= param in my boot args... but what should it be? [08:22] my sound card issue [08:22] mlissner: why can't you uninstall ruby-full [08:22] I just reboot to ubuntu to solve the problm [08:22] oki actually only improvement imo [08:22] jelly12gen: well if I do, I might need to reinstall it to install rubygemss === matholum|away is now known as matholum [08:22] Slart: on my terminal it first prints "No LSB modules are available..." and then prints the rest... [08:23] deostroll: mm.. there are several lsb modules iirc.. but check out the lsb site.. I'm sure they have some kind of explanation [08:23] jelly12gen: Hmm...I guess I'll just install gems, and then uninstall ruby-full, if possible. [08:23] loomsen1, improved capability? how did they do this? why wasn't it compatiablie before? [08:23] mlissner: what is the dependencie of rubygemss ? Or is it a light version of ruby , if it needs ruby your logic fails , if it is a lightweight version or ryby just install it [08:23] rahul_ by doing what. also when i used the wubi it worked after i installed the plugin from the popuo toolbar in firefox [08:24] mlissner: does gems need ruby? [08:24] Slart: thanx for the info anyway :) [08:24] deostroll: you're welcome [08:24] oki compatibility [08:24] hello everyone [08:25] jelly12gen: it appears gems do not need ruby...I retract my pickle. It appears to be figured out. [08:25] any ideas? what is the init anyway? [08:25] oki: it was, just, pretty obvious 100x100 fonts won't look as intended when scaled down to 96x96 [08:25] is there any body who had upgraded our system with ubuntu version 9.04 [08:25] hey! [08:25] Can anyone tell me the path for the broadcom inf file?

If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) [08:26] oki thats y there are so many tuts how to install ms fonts, and so many people complaining that their fonts dont look good [08:26] loomsen1, ok i see anyway my username is okn no oki [08:26] oki and this has been fixed [08:26] k [08:26] okn sry budd [08:27] need help with sound card issue [08:28] Can anyone sugguest me?

So now I can pick between them on my preformatted HD. There is a ext3 and swap. when i did the ext3 though... it says there is no init and i need to add inti=.... but =??? [08:31] Sound card Realtek HD(in windows) [08:31] Sound card Realtek HD(in windows) come with acer aspire 5050 series (notebook) [08:31] chinosuke1: not that this helps, but I always had very LOW sound in Ubuntu with mine [08:32] hi guys, i removed network manager, edited interfaces, eth0 has an ip, is up but has no gateway in the route tables, can anybody help? [08:32] matholum: sounds pretty screwed up, you could boot into a live cd and fix it tho, you'd have to edit your fstab and add your new designated boot partition, and run mbr_install /path/to/designated/boot to install mbr again [08:32] I use the maximum volume but cannot here. [08:32] *hear [08:32] I'm trying to compile something that i can't seem to find a equivilent in the repos, and i'm getting an error. Anyone mind taking a look? http://pastebin.ca/1404600 [08:33] matholum: you can not simply take another partition and hope it will boot (how could it without any data on it) [08:33] loomsen1: no... this is FOR a live cd... haven't been able to install yet. this occurs when selecting the install option on a live cd [08:33] there is a sound icon in near the calendar but it not help me with the sound issue [08:33] sry? you dont need to install a bootloader on a livecd... === Onyx_ is now known as Guest45890 [08:33] loomsen1: and yes, the partition is empty [08:34] how do u click "ok" in a teerminal [08:34] loomsen1: the whole problem is when i boot a live cd i get "kernel panic - unable to mount root fs on unknown block" [08:34] matholum: if you took a live iso and copied it to a cd, this wont work neither, you gotta convert it and add a persistance file to be able to change it [08:35] my display manager is not working properly, [08:35] wrektjet: what exactly do you wish to do? [08:35] loomsen1: if you are talking about when I did the fdd, i used syslinux [08:35] i am able to work through command line [08:35] faileas, this is obviously a link problem [08:35] i have removed gdm [08:36] i have installed kdm [08:36] matholum: ok, stop here, breathe, and try tellin me again what you did, without missing anything [08:36] Guillem_: Anything i can do to fix it? [08:36] but not getting how to change display manager ? [08:36] matholum: you download an iso, then... [08:36] loomsen: all the actual cds are just burned iso's... and have been checked with the verify option in the live cd menu... some of which were used to install ubuntu on other comps [08:36] Sir, I have Dell A380. I am not able to enable visual effects in appearance section. [08:36] please help me out [08:37] akshat: have you installed the display drivers? [08:37] wtv, i was trying to navigate within a terminal to select but i figured you can use the arrow keys R and L [08:37] faileas, not sure. One should see where these "first_readable" should come from. [08:37] loomsen: i burned it with either k3b or cdburnerxp and verified the data there.... [08:37] i haven't installed any extra driver [08:37] akshat: which video card do you have? [08:37] matholum: right, go on, you burned thhem to discs right, not usb sticks [08:37] i have intel 965gm chipset with integrated graphic card [08:38] faileas, there are two possibilities: one is that these functions are in your code-tree but for some reason have not been compiled. THe other one, is that those functions should be at one of the used libraries and they are not, but it is strange because seems that prototypes for them have been found. [08:38] loomsen: but when I choose install when the disk loads, i get my error... this has happened on live disks for ubuntu 7.10 on up... and a gparted disk... so I know for sure that it is not the disks... most of them have been used in other comps [08:38] how do i access my frnd's computer using internet from my ubuntu ????? ( i think is it called remote desktop ? _ [08:38] loomsen1: so then i did a mem test and all clears... [08:39] akshat: system> administration > hardware drivers [08:39] faileas, my hint is that liblowfat has not been properly compiled in your case [08:39] Guillem_: hmm.. I'm trying to compile opentracker, and as far as i know, it uses a single librarary, which i compiled too, according to instructions [08:40] well it shows only one driver Alternate Aetheros "madwifi" driver [08:40] loomsen: now though, i get a list of partitions (i am using acpi=off noapic nolapic)... but if i do root=0811 for example, it does the init error [08:40] and no other driver [08:40] faileas, all I can do is just try to state which the problem can be ... :P [08:40] Guillem_: oh well, i'll try it again ;p [08:40] Guillem_: i understand, ;p [08:40] np [08:41] matholum: only thing i think of now that you say acpi off and the apic and nolapic, a buddy had the same problem [08:41] akshat: sudo apt-get install xserver-xorg-video-intel [08:41] matholum: his issue: his vista recovery partition was put into the BIOS [08:41] loomsen1: if it helps, this is a dell dimension 4600i with a 2.6GHz P4 with a 512MB stick of RAM (took a 256 out after it faild a mem test) [08:42] matholum: he wasnt even able to install a XP over his vista [08:42] Sweet. I got ubuntu preseed to work with software raid! [08:42] just required an ugly hack! [08:42] loomsen: this originally had xp though... [08:42] matholum: yes, dell isn't known for neither [08:42] it shows xserver-xorg-video-intel is already the newest version. [08:42] 0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded. [08:42] o.o [08:43] Is a swap partition even needed on a modern system guys? I dont think I have ever seen it being used on my system. === Jiyu_ is now known as JiYu [08:43] loomsen1: is there a way i can point the init back to the cd? [08:43] is there a similar software like teamdrive, but for usage via lan? [08:43] markjones: if you have enough ram - min 2gig, then no a swap is not necessary [08:43] hi [08:43] k [08:43] thanks [08:44] MarkJones: its needed for hibernation [08:44] Cannot hear the sound in 9.04 sound card is Realtek HD [08:44] matholum: well, this all sounds so screwed, i'd have to guess, but would suggest you go for another install [08:44] akshat: i suggest you google your problem :) [08:44] chinosuke1 [08:44] onboard sound? [08:44] yes [08:44] what kind of motherboard? [08:45] loomsen1: i can try the alt install again... been a while since i did that... [08:45] on board , it is notebook acer aspire 5050 [08:45] loomsen1: now that it shows my partitions it may work... [08:45] matholum: yes, i'd always use that one, or netinstall [08:45] i have googled it, but the solutions are too complicated. I coudn't load the previous versions of ubuntu since it showed the BUFFER IO error during installation [08:45] i had same problem with realtek HD on my new gigabtye motherboard with 9.04, i managed to fix it, im looking through my logs for the link to the solution i used [08:46] akshat: which version do you have now? [08:46] loomsen1: alright... i will try it real quick. Are you going to be on for a while? === CoskunD is now known as coskund [08:46] matholum: you should make sure you install your mbr to a ext3 partition if you're going to have ext4 too [08:46] thanks inadvance [08:46] matholum: maybe [08:47] loomsen1: ok... i will try that if this works. I will brb....

[09:03] i need some help with ubuntu studio [09:03] thadoood: What's up? [09:04] im trying to install it but when the kernel loads it just goes to a blank black screen and hangs there [09:04] im installing it on a toshiba laptop [09:04] guys, where can i submit a bug with jaunty? compiz-fusion slows down my machine tremendously... i'm using Intel GM965/GL960 graphic controller. i've been to compiz-fusion room and they have suggested to report this into the jaunty tech team. [09:04] Install as in from a disk or as a ubuntu-studio package? [09:04] as in from DVD iso burned [09:04] !bug | gharz [09:04] gharz: If you find a bug in Ubuntu or any of its derivatives, please file a bug report at: http://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu - Bugs in/wishes for the bots can be filed at http://launchpad.net/ubuntu-bots [09:04] fresh install [09:05] gharz: the Intel graphics problems are well known. [09:05] Slipstream: i understand... but compiz-fusion works like a charm when i was using 8.10 [09:05] thadoood: Is this your first attempt? [09:05] yes [09:05] gharz: My sound works in 8.10. Not in Jaunty. [09:05] gharz: You aren't alone. Jaunty just sucks. That's basically it. [09:06] ohhhh.... [09:06] thadoood: Sometimes this stuff glitches up. I suggest trying installing again. [09:06] Slipstream: i just wished that i didn't switched to jaunty immediately... i was still happy with my 8.10 [09:06] :( [09:06] It's very lame. I had to reinstall 8.10 [09:06] I know, same. :( [09:06] ok im at the first ubuntu studio screen for like the 7th time and im gonna try to select Install ubuntu studio again [09:07] hi [09:07] thadoood: you can install ubuntu and then download the studio packages [09:07] thadoood: Is it possible you didn't burn the disk properly? One time I failed to burn properly and the disk was all screwed up. [09:07] is someone never been here and his ip is banned whom should he talk to? [09:07] thadoood: check the disk for errors [09:07] no i burned it right , i burned the 1.1gig iso image onto a DVD-R [09:07] and it burned successfully [09:08] Why the heck can't some people join in ? [09:08] i checked it for errors , everything was fine [09:08] WHOM TO SPAKE ABOUT A MISTAKEN BAN [09:08] oso`perezoso: #ubuntu-ops [09:09] DrAnthraX: thanks [09:09] oso`perezoso, Nice job [09:09] :) [09:10] ok maybe somthing is terribly wrong , because i just selected from the boot option menu to check the CD for errors and it loaded the kernel then went to this screen again with the blank blacknesssss [09:10] im in a glasssss cage of emotion :( :( :( [09:10] Hi, i still have problems to install mysql-server in jaunty. Is there some where a articel how to fix this? [09:10] does the "check cd for errors" thing work now? [09:10] i remember it never used to [09:11] thadoood: It seriously sounds like your disk is bad. [09:11] hi [09:11] thadoood: ubuntu studio isn't quite different from ubuntu except for the theme (which sucks) and the extra p[ackages, which you can later get frm repos [09:11] Ubuntu Studio has a modified kernel also. [09:11] yes it does [09:11] Slipstream, Is it amazing ? [09:11] Which is pretty good for 3D rendering and stuff. [09:11] im going to be doing audio work [09:11] I see [09:12] I haven't tried it, so not sure. [09:12] I hear it's good though. === edgex- is now known as edgex-[outsideSc [09:12] so if the disk is bad Slipstream what do i do ? [09:12] thadoood: Burn a new one? :/ [09:12] do you seriously think that would solve it ? [09:13] i mean if i burned it right the first time why would that fix it though ?? [09:13] It's hard to tell. Your download could be the corrupt bit... [09:13] But that's unlikely. [09:13] Also, was it torrented or http? [09:13] it http [09:13] when using rhythmbox, when encountering an "unknown" file in my music library it tries to install p lugins such as "smil decoder" it begnis popping up endlessly... how do i disable this? [09:13] Maybe you could try installing the iso in virtualbox? [09:14] virtual box ? [09:14] That would be a good test. [09:14] how does the new 9.04 work? is it buggy? [09:14] which kind of download is supposed to be more reliable? torrent or direct? [09:14] Kerio: Very buggy. [09:14] Go to Synaptic and put in VirtualBox. [09:14] yes? any special area? or all around? [09:14] wtv in my case torrent only takes 25 minutes and [09:14] anyone have a solution? [09:14] Kerio: Intel Graphics/sound fail for lots of people. [09:14] Including me. :( [09:14] its more considerative with http servers [09:14] ah [09:15] 2 bad :( [09:15] k [09:15] was thinking of trying it today maybe [09:15] bam. 50 servers installed. [09:15] Slipstream: i also noticed that when it loaded the kernel it went to the black screen and it said somthing at the top about APCI or what not and then the screen kinda flickered a flash of green and was just black [09:15] how to grep dmesg? [09:16] k. That's pretty weird. [09:16] Does regular Ubuntu run? [09:16] i have run it before but not on this particular laptop actually [09:16] i have 2 laptops , but my other one currently has backtrack installed on it [09:17] Is there some way to start the X-Server with a given driver sans writing out an xorg.conf? The nv driver consistently fails with my graphics card and I need to switch to vesa so I can run the installer. [09:17] It sounds pretty Linux incompatible: see Wikipedia http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Advanced_Configuration_and_Power_Interface [09:17] I can't be sure, but doesn't that mean the hardware won't support the kernel? === cesar_ is now known as Guest14786 [09:17] im confused now [09:18] Me too. :/ [09:18] I suggest Ubuntu forums for people who really understand this stuff. === Guest14786 is now known as BrixSat [09:18] It seems that I first have to boot Windows in order to get full graphics performance in Ubuntu [09:18] what CyberSix [09:18] wierd [09:18] I'm not completely sure it's a problem with Ubuntu though [09:18] www.ubuntuforums.org [09:19] slipstream im gonna just try to run regular ubuntu and see if that works [09:19] Yeah, good idea.

(I did fresh install) [09:20] That program is awesome for me. [09:20] oh works good in wine then?

[09:26] halycon: system>preferences>power management [09:26] halycon: press the FN key and try the F1 to F12 [09:26] _Boris: aight, 2.6.28-11? i passed that , unusable [09:27] morning all ;) [09:27] no, machine was brand new build, windows never loaded.... it has 2x SATA 250gb drives with ubuntu on first drive [09:27] guys please help - failed to upgrade intrepid to jaunty. now cant boot either. here is my problem -- http://paste.ubuntu.com/159178/ [09:27] Does any one now how to control internet trafic per ip on a network? [09:27] faileas, so like ssh username@myremoteserver.org? Is that enough? [09:28] _Boris: but zapping should initiate a x restart... [09:28] <_Boris> loomsen1: okei, which one do you use now? [09:28] Peddy: just type in ssh. it'll tell you the switches ;) [09:28] when connecting via xdmcp to a server I'm getting a grey screen with an x whenever our interal dns goes down... any ideas? were using ltsp [09:28] captainkirk: does pysdm offer to configure or anything when you look at the hard drive? [09:28] faileas, aha, thanks. [09:28] Hey guys, I have installed Ubuntu inside windows [09:28] no... [09:29] good Rook how is it going? [09:29] _Boris: now now i'm running 2.6.29-1, but have the 2.6.30-rc3 installed as well, and it seems to work even better for me [09:29] When in Ubuntu i try to restart of shutdown it just goes to a blakc screen [09:29] Peddy: i use the same username on all my boxen so.. its a non issue. i just need to decide if i want x forwarding or not ;) [09:29] captainkirk: But...you can still see it...? [09:29] Only way i can get out of it is manual restart [09:29] Slipstream: Sounds like no partition, eh? === div0 is now known as div0-work [09:29] captainkirk: Does this second HD have a filesystem? [09:29] but i can tell in a cpl of hrs, gotta stress the 29-1 a little more [09:29] wtv, thanks that fixed it for some reason i had to uncheck the dim display option when running on battery when it isn't running off the battery [09:29] wtf is Tracker Applet? [09:29] the partition list on the left shows sda sdb (the one i cant access) sdc sdd sde [09:29] it keeps asking me to reindex [09:29] mmm Rook here works fine in a friend machine [09:30] Damn :C [09:30] halycon: yup. i have a sony vaio too [09:30] all the other drives i use and they have expansion arrows next to them which shows the partitions [09:30] also, Netbeans package doesn't seem to work properly either [09:30] if i click on a partition, then it says it not configured, do you want to configure it now [09:30] captainkirk: It really sounds like there's nothing on that harddrive. [09:30] that is true.... it is brand new never used [09:30] CTRL+SPACE is supposed to auto-complete or give a list of possible classes from JDK however it doesn't. [09:30] just plugged im [09:30] captainkirk: Do you have gparted? [09:30] * coskund is away (Gule Gule (Cevrim Disi) | Bye Bye (Offline)) [09:30] captainkirk: sudo apt-get install gparted [09:31] ummm.. not here, i have it at work... === coskund is now known as CoskunD [09:31] wtv, oh how wonderful they are pretty nice [09:31] captainkirk: install it. [09:31] kk [09:31] wtv, if only the cam worked on them [09:31] <_Boris> loomsen1: custom built, or is there any official packages? [09:31] halycon: yeah. the only problem is i didn't find the webcam driver even after an extensive hunt [09:31] yeah [09:32] hey [09:32] wtv, I kind of got mine working [09:32] install done.... [09:32] _Boris: actually i enjoied debians 2.6.29 most of all so far (all with their shipped configs, recompiling always generates a smoother kernel) but to actually be able to compare i run them generic [09:32] captainkirk: Now go to terminal, sudo gparted [09:32] wtv, I had to use like some ru5870 driver or something [09:32] halycon: really? which one is it? ricoh? [09:32] yeah [09:32] it only works in cheese [09:32] halycon: ok. do you have some link? [09:32] not in skype or other things though [09:32] yes, up and listed [09:32] yours might though [09:32] any ideas?? [09:32] captainkirk:then select that hd on the top right corner selection thing [09:32] _Boris: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/ [09:33] I have 380Gb used on my external Hd, but Disk Analyser shows about 200gb only :( [09:33] hi all, im a total noob to ubuntu and just installed Jaunty [09:33] and most of the packages I try to apt-get [09:33] cant b e found [09:33] mongrethod: nice [09:33] is that because the jaunty depo doesnt have them yet?\ [09:33] or is it because i havent set up the proper depo [09:33] yep, what disk type should i allocate? [09:33] <_Boris> loomsen1: thanks.. I'll give it a try :) [09:33] basically my q is like, is this normal [09:33] haha [09:33] mongrethod: you may need to add in universe and multiverse into your package source [09:33] faileas, it says 'Permission denied (publickey,gssapi-with-mic)'. Do you know what this means? I've searched for the error, but there aren't many helpful results. [09:33] phix: thanks :) [09:33] captainkirk: and where it says empty space or something like that, right click and choose format to, and then choose ext3 or whatever you want [09:34] whats the address for those? [09:34] _Boris: yw [09:34] mongrethod: click on System, Administration, Package Sources [09:34] halycon: where did you get the driver from? [09:34] yeah im there [09:34] Software sources even [09:34] Peddy: hmm, you use key based autentication? [09:34] mongrethod: gg [09:34] third party software yeah [09:34] so now i click "add" [09:34] hi, i'm sitting here on a 8.04 system with custom built kernel.. [09:34] it wants the complete apt line [09:34] mongrethod: ummm [09:34] i installed nvidia modules by way of the nvidia installer [09:34] slipstream: operation underway..... waiting [09:34] mongrethod: no [09:34] oh? [09:34] mongrethod: it is under ubuntu software [09:34] wtv, I am just trying to find it [09:35] _Boris: tbh, i'm just beating time till fedira finally ships its stabe [09:35] tick user supported packages [09:35] faileas, I had that error ever since I tried logging in normally, since then I've tried adding keys for authentication, but the error persists. is there a way to log in without keys? [09:35] captainkirk: Big drive? [09:35] 250gb [09:35] halycon: k [09:35] trying modprobe nvidia says "Error running install command for nvidia" [09:35] ommunity maintained and in brackets universe [09:35] captainkirk: kk, when that's done, go to pysdm again and configure, then mount [09:35] Peddy: the default is not to [09:35] its wierd [09:35] anybody knows how to display a message in the new indicator applet from command line? [09:35] mongrethod: tick the one for multiverse too === atom32k is now known as atomekk [09:35] runnign modprobe -vvvv points me to /sbin/lrm-video [09:35] captainkirk: it should work after that [09:35] phix: oh yeah all those were ticked [09:35] is there a way to disable this mechanism=? [09:35] i just updated them, lets try again [09:35] mongrethod: what application are you trying to install? [09:36] anyone running spotify here ? [09:36] wtv, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=968381&highlight=r5u870&page=3 [09:36] faileas, should just 'ssh username@remoteserver.org' theoretically work, if ssh is installed on the system? [09:36] that is the page i was reading where i found it i think [09:36] im getting an ever so slight glitch every once in a while, would be great to get rid of it [09:36] otherwise it works fine [09:36] faileas, it doesn't even prompt for a password [09:36] Peddy: definately key based then, and i don't use it [09:36] :( [09:36] _Boris: BTW NOTE: these kernels usually are pretty bloated, so if you decide you enjoied one of them, you should consider recompiling, even if you chose make oldconfig [09:36] I use key based [09:36] captainkirk jumps extatically around the room then regains his composure..... 'It Works' [09:36] it is great [09:37] captainkirk: <3 [09:37] halycon: thanks [09:37] phix: hmm still missing lots of packages, for example, compizconfig-plugins-manager [09:37] faileas, ah, so the server could be set to 'force' key-based auth? [09:37] slipstream: thakns for your help... now have more disk space.... [09:37] and all of the standard IRC clients etc [09:37] :) [09:37] wtv, no problem bud [09:37] Any time. [09:37] Peddy: ya [09:37] faileas, great, thanks for your help. I'll persue that further :P [09:37] Peddy: might wanna talk to your sysadmin about that [09:37] pursue [09:38] faileas, yeah, I'll have a look. :) [09:38] Where has the tor package gone? [09:39] I heard that was missing. Some guy managed to get it yesterday though. [09:39] Don't know how though... :/ [09:39] whats the command to delete a file in terminal? [09:39] faileas, does the client need the server's key? or does the server need the client's key? (that is, if the client wants to access the server). [09:40] ugh fucking compiz is ultra-broken right now [09:40] Chr|s: rm [09:40] Chr|s: rm [09:40] Peddy: i think you need a key from the server [09:40] !ohmy | mongrethod [09:40] mongrethod: Please remember that all Ubuntu IRC channels share the same attitude of providing friendly and polite interaction with all users of all ages and cultures. Basically, this means no foul language and no abuse towards others. [09:40] why is openoffice being installed during dist-upgrade while I removed it before the upgrade? [09:40] * faileas dosen't bother, its not like someone is gonna hack me ;p [09:40] Oh, sorry :_O [09:40] can someone check for me that compizconfig is in the normal repos and its just my prob/ [09:40] Hey, in Xchat is it possible to make it so you join multiple servers and channels at startup? [09:40] in fact, that one port is the only way into my network ;p [09:40] cuz when i try to apt-get it I cant find it [09:40] slart, wtv thanks [09:41] faileas, oh no, I was doing it the other way around :P. Also, I can't disable keys (at least right now), because it's a commercial hosting server I'm going into. [09:41] Chr|s: np dude [09:41] sudo apt-get install compizconfig-settings-manager [09:41] gets me nothing [09:41] Peddy: i might be wrong tho. [09:41] SPF: I think that's one of the difference between upgrade and dist-upgrade.. the latter might install new packages depending on dependencies, suggestions and so on [09:41] most of the other compiz files are there [09:41] but not that [09:41] mongrethod aptitude search PKGNAME [09:41] or even aptitude search KGNA [09:41] hi I just upgraded to Jaunty. now firefox just exits without warning. is anyone else experiencing this? [09:42] Dday, in the channel list, select a channel and click 'edit', then click 'connect to this network on startup'. You could also fill the 'favourite channel' box with channels you want to autojoin. [09:42] Raiders32: Did you just update? [09:42] <_Boris> loomsen1: I'll see if it solves my problem first :) it booted at least :) [09:42] yes [09:42] Thanks Peddy [09:42] loomsen1: thanks, that gets me a list of compiz stuff, but compizconfig is not there [09:42] Raiders32: Close and reopen firefox. [09:42] when you run that do you get config or no [09:42] Raiders32, open a terminal from applications>accessories>terminal, type 'firefox' and hit enter. Does it output any messages before quitting? [09:42] Raiders32, did you restart firefox after the upgrade? [09:43] slipstream: I have been doing that [09:43] peddy: no messages [09:43] Raiders32: Try rebooting. Stuff needs restarting after updates sometimes. [09:43] mongrethod: http://pastebin.com/m582bdbc6 [09:43] slipstream: I have rebooted [09:43] john_: dmesg | grep word [09:44] Raiders32: then listen to peddy I guess. :P Look in the terminal for errors. [09:44] Slipstream, he said there were no messages :O [09:44] loomsen1: yeah i get a differetn output :( [09:44] mine has no compizconfig-settings [09:44] Where? :/ [09:45] Oh, right. :P [09:45] Slipstream: looks like i'm gonna switch back to 8.10 again... i'm kinda disappointed with Jaunty :( [09:45] Raiders32, try reinstalling the 'firefox' package. sudo apt-get install --reinstall firefox (or you could do it in Synaptic). [09:45] mongrethod: enabled additional repos? backports, canonical and so on [09:45] Peddy: I started firefox from the command line, it opened, no mesages [09:45] I know, so lame. I had mine just how I liked it. [09:45] will try to reinstall === kancerman_ is now known as kancerman [09:45] I might make a remastersys some time. [09:45] guys, honestly, get a real browser [09:45] www.opera.com [09:45] loomsen1: >.> [09:45] lol [09:46] Also, add-ons are too good. [09:46] yeah loomsen aptitude search compizconfig [09:46] jsut yields lib and backend [09:46] as for getting the additional repos [09:46] how? [09:46] o.o [09:46] And gtk integration is nice too. [09:46] mongrethod: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. [09:46] opera is okay.... [09:46] Peddy, i'm in server-list of channels but it is empty? [09:47] thnx slyth [09:47] mongrethod: compizconfig-settings-manager is in universe repository [09:47] I would not say that lacking support for certain plugins and things makes opera any better [09:47] I used it back in the Windows days quite a while ago, but it's nothing special nowadays. [09:47] slytherin: i have universe enabled... [09:47] the only thing I know of that is superior is that opera doesn't have that firefox exploit === Photoguy is now known as Photoguy_somewhe [09:47] Polterge|st: opera will yet again push browsing to a new level with opera 10 and presto 2.2 [09:47] Dday, did you click 'reload channels' or similar? [09:47] mongrethod: what do you get when you do apt-get install compizconfig-settings-manager [09:47] slytherin: package not found [09:47] loomsen1: ok... i may be a step closer. the alt disk did not work, but... when I tried 8.10 again, the partitions don't show up when the root fs error occurs. Only 9.04 does. Also, at least from what i could tell on the last one i did (a 8.10) it says just before it... "RAMDISK: compressed image found at block 0" then "invalid compressed format (error=1)"... then it shows the root problem... which makes sense if the image didn't l [09:47] oad... [09:47] mongrethod: did you do apt-get update? [09:48] !ccsm [09:48] To enable advanced customization of desktop effects in Ubuntu: install 'compizconfig-settings-manager' or 'simple-ccsm'. If you install the latter, a new option will appear in your appearance properties - See also !compiz - Help in #compiz-fusion [09:48] hello [09:48] I will be more impressed with opera when they get better support for some things [09:48] slytherin: doing that now [09:49] Man, I'm so disappointed with Jaunty. A fast booting ext4 Intrepid would have been much better. [09:49] Opera should be able to do anything firefox or IE can do [09:49] hmm did that but it had a bunch of errors [09:49] Maybe if they used a less buggy kernel or something. [09:49] and right now it cannot [09:49] and sometimes it is laggy [09:49] Peddy, i done that [09:49] well, I guess I'll just have to boot Windows before booting Ubuntu. It's not a great deal [09:49] But i right click and no edit? [09:49] matholum: ok, hold on a moment [09:49] Slipstream: what do you mean by less buggy? [09:49] ill give you a paste [09:49] i installed 9.04 yesterday and i noticed there's a popup for pidging (when people come online or write to me) which i can't seem to find in the settings of pidgin. is there a sepparate program that does that? if yes, how is it named please? [09:49] i got 403 forbiddens on a TON of updates [09:50] matholum: so, you're getting to the partitioner in your install is what you mean by showing and not showing? [09:50] mongrethod: looks like problem with mirror you are using [09:50] shantzu: what do you want to do with those popups? [09:50] slytherin: my sound worked in 8.10, not in Jaunty. Intel graphics fail frequently too. [09:50] Polterge|st: i seriozly doubt that :D any of that tbh [09:50] why does moving files create hardlinks ? [09:50] I can only blame the kernel, nothing else controls modules... [09:51] Polterge|st: but whatever, keep getting bugged [09:51] Dday, sorry, I just timed out. [09:51] anyone here? [09:51] Slipstream: neither sound modules nor graphics modules are part of kernel [09:51] Dday, it's 'download list'. You clicked that, right? And nothing appeared? [09:51] Yeah i did download list [09:51] I got all the channels [09:51] But how do i edit? [09:51] slytherin: disable or edit them. i am using guifications and don't need both of them, but if i can't configure the black ones (the one that didn't appear in 8.10 and now do appear) i would like to atleast disable them [09:51] lol [09:51] firefox doesn't bug me [09:51] Right click no edit [09:51] loomsen1: no... it is still loading the boot disk after i choose install... it is loading the live image i guess and failing (what i just found out now) and because of that, it wants to know where root and init are... which is why it attempts to show my partitions [09:51] although the js insertion into certain applets is sneaky of those Russian hackers [09:51] When i click "Users and Groups" and some others, it says "You are not allowed to access the system configuration." :( [09:51] slytherin: What, really? ...this is a bit of a hole in my knowledge. [09:52] What controls them then? Pulseaudio, alsa? [09:52] Well, sound that is. [09:52] Polterge|st: if you'd specify "some" a little closer i'd prlly prove u wrong [09:52] Polterge|st: true, those russians rock :D [09:52] kn [09:52] shantzu: in pidgin go to tools -> plugins -> message notification [09:52] Dday, oh, you don't edit the channel list. You edit the network list. It's in Menu>Xchat>Network List [09:53] matholum: i see, and if you remove the disk it fails to lead at all [09:53] XYf: is this fresh install? [09:53] firefox still pwns though [09:53] yo so [09:53] :) [09:53] Polterge|st: LOL it never did buddy [09:53] im getting 403's on all of the relevant packages when I do apt-get install update [09:53] slytherin: Yes. [09:53] how do I manually reload my wireless module? [09:54] im back with another problem (already) [09:54] loomsen1, well that depends on the system and the user [09:54] ;) [09:54] lol [09:54] XYf: did you choose 'Encrypted home directory' when doing install? [09:54] matholum: how did you partition during install? /boot / and /home? and ext3 everything? [09:54] loomsen1: no matter what, I get a unable to load root fs on unknown block error... but now I think it is because of the line i see now (in this case on a 8.10) and that is that the ramdisk compressed image is failing [09:54] some people can make it work for them [09:54] my newly formatted drive is only accessable to root, so I can copy any files to it [09:54] Okay i got to work Peddy [09:54] lianimator: modprobe -r module, modprobe module [09:54] Thanks a lot mate [09:54] Polterge|st: user usually is the limiting factor [09:54] ;) [09:54] Dday, that's great. You're welcome. [09:54] lol [09:54] yep [09:54] slytherin: No. After update, the problem appears [09:54] loomsen1: this is still a live disk before i can even get to the install... it was pre-formatted on another comp as ext3 and a swap [09:55] XYf: after what update? [09:55] slytherin: but why do these popus appear when someone comes online? message notification seems to be only about notifying the user about new messages [09:55] Does anyone know what the deal with these 403's is? [09:55] how do edit permissions of a hard drive owned by root so everyone can use it? [09:55] shantzu: I don't have access to a jaunty box right now. So can't help much. [09:55] It has to be edited in fstab... [09:55] matholum: possible that it was formatted as persistant? [09:55] slytherin: All of the system shows me.. [09:56] slytherin: ohh, ok then [09:56] loomsen1: i don't know what you mean... [09:56] how do i get to fstab [09:56] captainkirk: ect/fstab [09:56] matholum: which would mean you dont run it off a cd but a usb/nat attached disk? [09:56] loomsen1: i have tried it on a usb... but this error is showing on a cd [09:56] slytherin: Besides, i have added my account in the sudoers file. But it still doesnt work [09:57] matholum: a cd with swap? o.O [09:57] loomsen: lol.. no, the hd has the swap and ext3 [09:57] ok... so how do i edit fstab from with the gui as 'user' when i need root privs to save it? [09:57] XYf: Did you restart (or relogin) after adding account to sudoers? [09:57] How do I run a script or program when the screensaver activates? [09:57] captainkirk, you have to edit fstab [09:57] Hey guys, I've installed 9.04, but now cannot boot back into vista on a seperate hdd. I've added the correct boot into the menu_lst for grub, error 12 arrives. I'm not sure if I'm entering the right hdd, or if I'm missing something. here's the log from my fdisk -l --- http://pastebin.com/d616cdcce [09:58] could always do what they told me to do and use the alternate CD [09:58] terminal: sudo gedit /ect/fstab [09:58] it says it upgrades from the CD without an internet connection [09:58] *loomsen1: lol.. no, the hd has the swap and ext3 [09:58] wait, not that. [09:58] it lies though [09:58] matholum: are you connected to the internet through a router/dhcp? [09:58] idealistically the alt CD upgrade needs to install the base packages from the CD first and then connect to the web and get the updates [09:58] it would be faster that way [09:58] batesy: paste your menu.lst file [09:59] loomsen1: i can be.... but the comp has no OS.... [09:59] i'd say grab a netinst then [09:59] slytherin: I did. After that, i can use Synaptic. But "Users and Groups" still shows the warning. [09:59] and why you ask would I want it to be faster ? well for one it is just annoying that it has to take this long to upgrade it on dialup [09:59] days and days [09:59] I could have done the same thing without the alt Cd [09:59] ...how do you open fstab in gedit from terminal again? [09:59] loomsen1: ok... i will try and find one.... [10:00] matholum: they are about 10mb sized, everything else will happen netbased, i cant figure out what type of live image you're tryin to use [10:00] second of all for someone installing or upgrading an entire network [10:00] captainkirk, open terminal and type gedit /etc/fstab [10:00] but you should obv get another one ^^ [10:00] k. now open [10:00] it would be faster for them as well [10:00] captainkirk, you should have root permission [10:00] Oh, lol. [10:00] How do i apt-get songbird? [10:00] etc, not ect. :P [10:00] I feel retarded. [10:00] did sudo bla bla [10:00] loomsen1: right now I am using the 32 normal 8.10 and 9.04 isos on cd [10:00] Slipstream-> gksudo gedit /etc/fstab [10:01] Yah, just realised. :P [10:01] XYf: What is the line you added in sudoers file? [10:01] so now what do i add to fstab? [10:01] matholum isix? [10:01] captainkirk, please type the name of the person you wish to have conversion with [10:01] Do you see an entry for your HD? === KennethP_ is now known as KennethP [10:01] slipstream: no, [10:02] slytherin: "user ALL=(ALL) ALL." [10:02] mishaFar: i don't know... how can i tell.. I just downloaded the iso off ubuntu's site... through the US OSU lab mirror... [10:02] <_Boris> loomsen1: it seems like thing runs a little smoother now, but I'll wait and see if I get some more freezes :) [10:02] how do u make something startup when ubuntu starts [10:02] Hi all! [10:02] captainkirk: okay, what is your hard drive called? [10:02] XYf: looks fine to me. [10:02] slipstream: it shows uuid:.... partition1 drive 1 uuid:.... partition 2 drive 1 and cdrom [10:02] matholum and you get install it? [10:02] captainkirk: like sda or something. [10:02] wrektjet, what version of Ubuntu are you using? [10:03] So what is the jaunty jackalope LIKE [10:03] How do i apt-get songbird? [10:03] Is it better than everything else? [10:03] wrektjet, have you tried preferences/startup applications? [10:03] 9.04 [10:03] Dday: sudo apt-get install [10:03] Dday: apt-get install songbird [10:03] also, after i have installed 9.04 i noticed that after a longer period of idleness (for example if i go away from the computer for 15-30 minutes and the screensaver kicks in) when i get back, the scroll of the mouse doesn't work anymore. if i restart the computer it works again, but only 'till i'm idle again. any idea what the reason for this could be or how i could fix it? [10:03] matholum: http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/jaunty/main/installer-amd64/current/images/netboot/ [10:03] I only need sudo if i'm not root right? [10:03] slipstream: in the flie browser it is called 250.1 GB Media [10:03] captainkirk: for example, for one of my partitions, fstab says /dev/sda3 [10:03] mishaFar: it boots up and i get the menu, and when I select install... (or try) i get errors [10:03] hey guys i got a very big problem on 2 computers [10:03] Dday, yup [10:03] loomsen1: ty [10:03] wrektjet, System>Preferences>Startup Applications [10:03] matholum: note this is for amd64 [10:04] alexb92, whats it? [10:04] captainkirk: I mean what is it called in gparted? [10:04] matholum why error? [10:04] they both were doing system upgrades to 9.04 and the power went out [10:04] and neither will boot [10:04] I use latest ATi propietary driver (ATi Radeon HD 4350) and my monitor wont turn off when it should (I set it up in "power management"), only the screen is painted black but the monitor is on. It didnt happen with the default driver that came with Ubuntu. Any idea? [10:04] slipstream: fstab shows commented lines /dev/sda1 and /dev/sda5 [10:04] slytherin: i've to leave. And thanks for your help :) [10:04] captainkirk: as in sda, ect. pysdm should also have it. [10:04] http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/jaunty/main/installer-i386/current/images/netboot/ [10:04] Do i need an anti virus or firewall? [10:04] both had finished doing downloades and they were in the installing stage [10:04] mishaFar: i get a "unable to mount root fs to unknown block" error... and i pass the mem test [10:04] how do i figure out what the commands for an app are [10:04] theres the one for 32bot [10:04] slipstream: my new drive is called sdb [10:04] alexb92, do you have a disk of 9.04 [10:05] for example xchat... to make it start up when i startup [10:05] nope i was downloading that on a laptop [10:05] which i will finish now actually [10:05] how do I change the mirror for apt-get update [10:05] captainkirk: so /dev/sdb should work... [10:05] You can right click the launcher, and select properties [10:05] Dday: it is good to have but not needed [10:05] since im 403'ing on the normal one [10:05] matholum do you try have new metall? [10:05] that'll tell you the command to use [10:05] hey, does anyone else have a problem that when you're going to open or save a file and the nautilus-type window pops up, the system freezes? [10:05] (wrektjet) [10:05] wrektjet, xchat would just be 'xchat'. So the command would be 'xchat' [10:05] but yeah, is there a way to upgrade them with stil the same packages from 8.10? [10:05] hello to all! I want to dump a page from script where you have to login. wget --load-cookies is not working this time. And lynx seems not to support something like --load-cookies. Does anyone know a other way? [10:05] Slytherin can you reccomend a light weight one? [10:05] mongrethod: edit the file /etc/apt/sources.list [10:05] alexb92, whaats the error which you see [10:05] there was 6gb of upgrades to install on one computer [10:06] Dday: I can't, I don't use any. [10:06] firstly i log in normally, the display keeps screwing up [10:06] slipstream: just add a new line /dev/sdb to fstab? [10:06] mishaFar: a new install? yes... this computer currently has no OS [10:06] Has anyone noticed any "funnies" with gnome-panel refresh when using multiple X's under Jaunty? [10:06] slytherin: also, after i have installed 9.04 i noticed that after a longer period of idleness (for example if i go away from the computer for 15-30 minutes and the screensaver kicks in) when i get back, the scroll of the mouse doesn't work anymore. if i restart the computer it works again, but only 'till i'm idle again. any idea what the reason for this could be or how i could fix it? [10:06] then it goes to the login screen and it logins in then logs out saying [10:06] Dday: firewall is inbuilt, you may want to check information about ufw to manage it. [10:06] shantzu: nope [10:06] Okay ty [10:06] matholum you want new fs? [10:07] /dev/sdb /media/ ext3 relatime 0 0 [10:07] join #XUBUNTU [10:07] you may have an installation problem [10:07] captainkirk: something like that. [10:07] mishaFar: no... it is trying to load the live CD... and can't load the image [10:07] How do you get widgets onto the desktop? Like weather etc [10:07] Hi everybody, I've upgraded to Jaunty yesterday, but since then I'm experiencing a problem with librxtx-java. Basically what happens is that it doesn't find any serial ports anymore. I don't know if anybody has experience with this library, but any help would be appreciated :). How it worked before the upgrade: I connect my USB device to my laptop, a device called /dev/ttyACM0 is made. From my Java code I call "CommPortIdentifier.getPortIdentifiers( [10:07] where does apt store its downloaded files? [10:07] Does anyone know where I can find some Universe and Multiverse mirrors? [10:07] matholum: maybe paste the output of df -h on some pastebin [10:07] is it ok to go into recovery mode then run dpkg? [10:07] I have not upgraded to 9:04 as of yet [10:08] bathroom... [10:08] would that fix the issue? [10:08] loomsen1: so do i just download all these files and put them on a cd or usb? [10:08] Dday, there's a program called 'screenlets' but maybe someone else has another suggestion. [10:08] captainkirk, have you tried that thing I typed? [10:08] matholum image in linux? I think what is do with man [10:08] Hmm i'll have a look into it [10:08] matholum: usually the 10mb mini.iso is enough [10:08] slipstream: just entered it and saving now [10:08] Dday, screenlets and gdesklets. I think gdesklets is prettier. You could also use Google Gadgets (made by Google). [10:08] Okay, then reboot. [10:08] mongrethod: all mirrors have universe and multiverse [10:08] loomsen1: ok... i will try to type it all in a pastebin... === maximo is now known as Maximo [10:09] whos man. [10:09] slipstream: okay bye till after reboot.,.... :) [10:09] matholum: nevermind [10:09] loomsen1: ok... [10:09] just go for a netinstall, everything should be fine :) [10:09] Thanks once again Peddy, you are a god send [10:10] I am having a problem with the DPI on my Kubuntu laptop. The 10 point font on the laptop looks like what 12 point looks like on all my other machines so it causes the layout on websites, my Eclipse IDE, everywhere else, to be really messed up. And I can't figure out how to fix it. The value calculated by xdpyinfo looks reasonable but it does not seem to come out looking right on the display. [10:10] I've been having a crazy issue with the gnome-panel. Whenever I have both monitors enabled, all panels keep opening and closing, repeatedly [10:10] mongrethod: you can simply add mutiverse universe to your current lines with one space in between [10:10] Hello people. I made a small apt-repository with software that I often use. The repository itself works fine, I have also made the Release and Release.gpg file, but it's unclear to me how to publish the fingerprint. I mean with that, the key file to import into apt. How can I create this file? [10:10] Is that something anyone's noticed? [10:11] mongrethod: so if you had [10:11] deb path://to/repo jaunty main [10:11] It's really annoying when editing text as way too little fits on the screen... it defeats the purpose of the 1920x1200 screen on this 10 ton gorilla system if the fonts are all whacked out like this! :) [10:11] Dday, you're welcome. Pay it forward, hehe. [10:11] folks, my laptop gets hanged once I open any mpeg file. How to get around this problem? Any Idea? My Machine goes dumb stuck and I have to restart [10:11] mongrethod: simply add mutiverse universe restricted [10:11] or whatever [10:11] I'll try my knowledge is just a bit shaky atm [10:12] BezNalogov: in general you have to add the gpg public key being used to your local apt "valid key" list with the apt-key command [10:12] Hey guys, i'm writing documents with openoffice, but i'm having trouble getting the spell check to work, i have purposfully mispelled some words, but the inline checker isn't happening.. i have gone into the options and set the default dictionary to english (EIRE) as we are in ireland here... but i can't get it to actually perform the spell check. [10:12] mwas, have you made sure to update your codecs from synaptic? [10:12] Hey guys! I have a dualcore CPU and according to System Monitor only 1 core is being used with apps I know are parallelized (mencoder). There used to be a special kernel for SMP, are the kernels now unified? [10:12] which media player are you using? [10:12] mwas: first, you can use ctrl+alt+backspace to kill your session so you don't have to reboot. [10:12] _Boris: sorry buddy, just noticed [10:12] thesheps: yah I install all gstreamer codecs [10:12] wtv, hasn't that been disabled in jaunty? [10:12] mwas: second, which player are you using? [10:12] And yes, the Autospellcheck button is clicked in on the tool bar [10:13] thesheps: is it? I'm still on intrepid [10:13] bartmon: first off start by looking at uname -a to see if it says SMP [10:13] _Boris: i forgot to answer, as i said, those kernels don't necessarily (and its even pretty likely they dont) ship with a reasonable config [10:13] bartmon: and /proc/cpuinfo to figure out how many cpus are discovered [10:13] by the way, how is done file monitoring in Ubuntu? using FAM? [10:13] slipstream: okay, rebooted and everything sems to the same. (not working) [10:13] wtv: Gnome Movie Player [10:13] :/ [10:14] _Boris: but anyway, they will all be superior to 2.6.28-11 [10:14] mwas: try if a different player like VLC works [10:14] Try mount /dev/sdb [10:14] slipstream: when i click on permissions in file browser for the new drive, it says i dont have permission [10:14] bartmon: other thing... some multicore apps dont do the multicore method without CLI args [10:14] mhall: 2.6.28-11-generic #42-Ubuntu SMP and /proc/cpuinfo does have 2 processors [10:14] wtv: I tried with all nothing work [10:14] KennethP, hey are u from kerala [10:14] _Boris: thats y i'd suggest, if you dont care bout btrfs or kms, just compile it using your 2.6.28 config [10:15] captainkirk, is your problem solved? [10:15] slipstream: mount point /media/sdb does not exis [10:15] mhall: Yeah, I must have missed it. I'll just go & RTFM if you don't mind. :) [10:15] captainkirk: the relatime should be changed to defaults [10:15] whoa, what? [10:15] konza.. no... sill working on it [10:15] It should be /dev/sdb. [10:15] captainkirk, what did you add to fstab [10:15] Slipstream: nevermind Slipstream, relatime is default [10:16] konza will open it and paste stand yb [10:16] ...I might have written it wrong, it's meant to be /dev/sdb. [10:16] mwas: did you try VLC? I'm asking again because VLC uses different set of codecs. in case your codecs are corrupted, you'll know then [10:16] Slipstream: for ext3 fs at leat [10:16] wtv: I ran Hardware Testing and while it tests for display, my box goes stuck [10:16] oh [10:16] installed jaunty, created /media/sda1 with chmod 777, added to /etc/fstab with ntfs-3g user,defaults; but whenever I try and run a linux executable off of it, I get "unable to execute ./program: permission denied". same with sudo ./program. If I put it on an ext3 partition it runs fine, but I need it on NTFS ... any ideas ? :/ [10:16] ls -l says it is 777 [10:16] konza: /dev/sdb /media/sdb ext3 relatime,errors=remount-ro 0 0 [10:16] loomsen1: btw, what is a crc error... i have gotten that too [10:16] mwas: which display card do you have? [10:17] <_Boris> loomsen1: I'll do that if this kernel works :) [10:17] captainkirk: try sudo fdisk -l [10:17] captainkirk, do you have a directory named sdb in /media [10:17] hi is there any nice GUI app for creating pdf from jpegs? [10:18] _Boris, this is a good kernel :) not like the one on 8.10 :) [10:18] loomsen1: actually i get a crc error and the root fs error on this net boot too [10:18] wtv: How do I get that info [10:18] hello everyone. iam new to ubuntu. iam trying to figure out if there is a way to run ubuntu as an application in win vista, i would like to try and get familiar with it before i make a full installation. [10:18] http://www.instant-registry-fixes.org/fixing-crc-error/ [10:18] konza: it is sdb1 the disk is sdb the partition is sdb1 === shriekout__ is now known as shriekout === Mau_Restor is now known as Inluenza === Inluenza is now known as Influenza [10:18] trylik: probably GUI is a harder way to do that job [10:19] konza, so i should be mounting the partition, not the disk right [10:19] trylik: quickest way is the convert utility in imagemagick [10:19] I'm tearing my hair out here. I need to print stuff. the problem is, no matter what I do, everything wants to print in US letter. Which is a problem, 'cos I've never seen such a type of paper. I have set the printer paper type to A4, and when I try to print a test page, printer just says "insert US letter" [10:19] captainkirk: change the bit to /dev/sdb1 [10:19] mwas: go to terminal and typ sudo lshw [10:19] slipstream: and then reboot? [10:20] mwas: and press enter [10:20] <_Boris> demon_: I just switched from 2.6.28-11 (default 9.04 [10:20] captainkirk: try unmount /dev/sdb1 === Influenza is now known as MauRestor [10:20] how can I see what locale is set?

[10:20] slipstream: command not found [10:21] got it. didnt realize defaults doesn't have exec. need user,exec for params. thanks anyway :D [10:21] captainkirk: bah, I know it's something like that. :/ [10:21] _Boris: intel graphics= well, thats what its all about concerning 2.6.29 :) [10:21] slipstream: can i unmount in psydm [10:21] jamieleshaw, there are already widgets compatible with Gnome, but if you're asking if widgets will be integrated, I doubt it. [10:21] Yeah, I think so. [10:21] wtv: 82G33/G31 Express Integrated Graphics Controller by Intel [10:21] tuna-fish: Well to double-check, what Media Size do you have in System > Administration > Printing, right click on your printer, select Properties and Printer Options [10:21] _Boris: LOL @ me, ignore [10:21] Thanks.

[10:22] morning [10:22] captainkirk, you mean , the name of the directory in /media is sdb1 rite? [10:23] _Boris: however, if you happen to have a intel video device, be sure to check out the KMS setting (actually it's all set up, you just have to check an option to make it default) [10:23] konza; that is correct [10:23] I upgraded to 9.04 and now mod_rewrite seems to be disabled. how do I enable it again? [10:23] How you check what version of Ubuntu you are on?

[10:27] slipstream: when i copy a file it says permission denied ..... konza, ext3 is correct [10:27] Dday: it is, but some people are reporting problems with drivers. not a big issue for most people in my opinion [10:27] /dev/sdb /media/sdb1 ext3 defaults 0 0 [10:27] captainkirk: *sigh* something about the mounting permissions. [10:27] Do i need to delete everythign to upgrade? [10:27] captainkirk, /dev/sdb /media/sdb1 ext3 defaults 0 0 [10:27] Dday: no [10:28] captainkirk, type this and reboot [10:28] Dday: you can do it using the update manager [10:28] I got 293 updates :x [10:28] Shouldn't it be /dev/sdb1?

[12:04] ikonia: what's the problem then [12:04] Gabrys1, thanks that was very helpful [12:05] ikonia: because it will have greater version number [12:05] Gabrys1: most 3rd party packages dont get updated because they are out of sync with the repo versions [12:05] SHIT [12:05] ActionParsnip, i am kind of 'afraid' removing the allready existing files of the old nvidia drivers. i f*cked up my system once like that just because of some drivers installation [12:05] a931bw: control your language please [12:05] a931bw, alarm watch the language [12:05] Freeyorp, sorry me neither :( it could have been caused by an installation of the fglrx driver if you tried this before, try uninstalling..

You have to manually install nscd or a dns server to cache DNS. Your DNS server IS your cache. If you have a router, restart that router. It will clear the cache. [12:11] i very need help [12:11] If you run firefox you can go into the config and clear Firefox's dns cache. It has its own. Or just go to offline mode in firefox and then back on. That works too. [12:11] alarm, did you understand what i said just now? let me rephrase it. you have to run nvidia binary driver installer with --uninstall switch. got it? [12:12] is there anyway to make thunderbird use the new notification system intead of its own? [12:12] a931bw what's up ?

[12:19] yes [12:19] same here [12:19] Serenka, have you searched for it @ ATi homepage? [12:20] But installed old drivers And even can't load OS :\ [12:20] Szaboka: research what? in Intrepid and all before it was working through HArdware drivers [12:20] hey i need some help, i got my webcam built in to my MSI lappy, and i want it working, can you help me? [12:20] hey i need some help, i got my webcam built in to my MSI lappy, and i want it working, can you help me? [12:20] alex-maximum: if you don't mind xubuntu, you can run it on things as old as a PIII. Ram seems to be the real bottleneck for me [12:20] Serenka, I understand, and now, there arent any resricted drivers? [12:20] what happened with Jaunty? seems to be kapoot [12:20] ActionParsnip, i see that the linux-source is not installed [12:21] The following extra packages will be installed: linux-source-2.6.28. shall i give it a try ? [12:21] Szaboka: there is no entry for ATI drivers in the Hardware Driver dialog [12:21] ipatel: I just pmed you...you get it? [12:21] :( [12:21] not at all impressed [12:21] from a recovery shell i did the ls command inside of etc and there is no x11 [12:21] faileas: me interesting Ubuntu 9.04 min hardware [12:21] are you sure its in etc ?? [12:21] Serenka, on ati's homepage, you can select to install linux x86/x64 drivers [12:21] alarm: get it grabbed, lad [12:21] Serenka, it was one simple googleing [12:22] !ati | Serenka [12:22] Serenka: For Ati/NVidia/Matrox video cards, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto [12:22] faileas: is xubuntu good for older computers? [12:22] mylisto: my pm seems to be not working [12:22] how can i install flashplayer for jaunty? [12:22] ipatel: can you pm me? [12:22] Szaboka: but why should I have to do that? Ubuntu has gone backwards in this regard [12:22] mylisto: yes. I prefer LXDE though [12:22] what do you mean by getting it grabbed ? :) my concern is that it says linux-source-2.6.28 while i got linux-source-2.6.28 [12:22] did the command return an IP address? [12:22] ubuntistas: 'sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree' [12:22] anyone run edubuntu on the NSLU2? need some help. [12:22] lxde: [12:22] ? [12:23] Serenka, because if there isnt any drivers built in, then you have to do it... simple [12:23] mylisto: faileas: i know, but.. me interesting ubuntu 9.04 [12:23] ActionParsnip: yeah I know .... not how it was with Intrepid ... pity [12:23] tpfennig: yes, it's /etc/X11/xorg.conf [12:23] Section "Module" [12:23] Load "glx" [12:23] tpfennig: sorry, not you [12:23] glx to vesa? [12:23] ubuntistas: tell me if its working or not... [12:23] Szaboka: no ... you don't understand [12:23] a931bw: no [12:23] ikonia: ;) [12:23] alex-maximum: then no idea [12:23] okey [12:23] ikonia" i dont see it [12:23] Serenka: okay, than tell me once more what is the problem [12:23] thadoood: /etc/X11/xorg.conf ? [12:24] I have: echo none > /sys/class/leds/iwl*/trigger in /etc/network/if-up.d/disablethatstupiddefault, yet my leds still blink all the time. What's up with that? [12:24] theres not x11 in /etc [12:24] hi, my laptop systematically shuts down upon logging (i'd say ~1min after each successful login)... any ideas ? [12:24] Serenka: i dont use ati so :D [12:24] thadoood: X11 - not x11 [12:24] ahhh [12:24] ActionParsnip, what do u mean by getting it grabbed ? [12:24] ipatel: heres the pastebin http://paste.ubuntu.com/159289/ [12:24] isn't everything in /etc/network/if-up.d supposed to be executed after a connection has been established? [12:24] mylisto: can you ping hotmail.com [12:24] ?? [12:24] still said it could not get to it , X11 is a folder right ? [12:24] thadoood: yup [12:25] says it cant CD to X11 [12:25] thadoood: show me the exact command you are using ? [12:25] alarm: sudo apt-get install linux-source [12:25] cd /etc/X11 [12:25] thadoood: and you are in recovery mode? [12:25] Szaboka: in Ubuntu usually there is an entry in Hardware/Restricted Drivers for the device that you have which needs drivers that are not built into Ubuntu for legal reasons ... and all of a sudden in Jaunty there is not such entry .... [12:25] Identifier "Configured Video Device" [12:25] Driver "ati" [12:25] thadood, try sudiong it, maybe... or get to it with nautilus [12:25] ati to vesa? [12:25] a931bw: stop flooding please [12:25] mylisto: your DNS is resolving fine [12:25] who told me if works [12:25] yes it works [12:25] are you able to browse to other sites? [12:25] im in recovery mode from the install disc [12:25] my concern is that it says linux-source-2.6.28 while i got 2.6.28-11-generic , is that a problem ? [12:26] whats the ubuntu server room? [12:26] a931bw: use pastebin if you plan to paste more than 1 line [12:26] ipatel: when I try pinging hotmail it just hangs...and every other stie works fine [12:26] thadoood: no - boot into recovery mode from the hard disks [12:26] Hymnosis: here [12:26] Is there a working evolution-mapi for Jaunty yet? [12:26] how do i do that ? [12:26] installing jaunty on my main system, is ext4 ready for primetime use? [12:26] I've tried passing acpi=off and/or noapic at grub prompt, but only thing I get is an immediate reboot [12:26] Serenka, i understand that [12:26] (even in a PPA somewhere?) [12:26] thadoood: boot from the hard disk, on the grub menu you will see recovery mode, select it [12:26] Driver "ati" i need to change ati to vesa? [12:26] ok [12:26] mylisto: the hanging of the ping is normal as they are blocking ICMP [12:26] In apt-get how do you search for packages? [12:26] Szaboka: well so I am wondering why Jaunty has gone backwards in this way ... [12:26] so nothing wrong there then? [12:26] vidoes are playing with shockwave [12:27] Serenka: so you need a driver, then ignore what is in there and what is not in there, goto ati homepage and download your driver [12:27] Hymnosis, #ubuntu-server [12:27] Serenka: its gonna work... [12:27] Driver "ati" i need to change ati to vesa? [12:27] I wish to change from djbdns to BIND. I was thinking that I should do a zone trasnsfer to another DNS server, and then install BIND9, and do a zone transfer back, any thoughts? [12:27] alarm, why don't you use the latest 180.* or 185.*? [12:27] Szaboka: nevermind ... seems like Ubuntu is not really getting it right with all these 6 month releases [12:27] Serenka, look i dont know, why it isn't there... personally I have nVIDIA and.... [12:27] thanks arvind_khadri [12:27] Serenka: its working since 6.10 :D [12:27] mylisto: do you have a static IP address? [12:28] ok now ikonia , how do i modify the xorg.conf [12:28] (public) [12:28] Serenka: I'm not completely sure on the status of fglrx in jaunty, ati dropped support for the new xorg for some cards but I think it's in the newest driver (which did not have time to make it into jaunty), you could try using envy to install... [12:28] thadoood: what text editor do you like to use ? [12:28] i think so [12:28] any thoughts on this problem ? thanks a lot [12:28] kwrite [12:28] dhanar_10, i dont think this would fix the problem, i am now just unsure if i should download the linux-source-2.6.28 while i got linux-source-2.6.28-11-generic [12:28] if it is the same thing [12:28] thadoood: thats tricky as that requires X11 doesnt it ? [12:28] Serenka: http://support.amd.com/us/gpudownload/Pages/index.aspx - there you can find your driver [12:28] Serenka, if needed :) [12:28] eclipse-startup takes very long. the process-monitor shows eclipse sleeping during startup-process. what can be the reason. and: how do I speed that up? [12:28] are you sure hotmail servers have not blacklisted your IP [12:28] what other one can i use ? [12:28] ienorand: thansk for the heads up ... I have heard a fair bit of bad about envy though [12:28] why would they? [12:29] thadoood: nano, vi, emacs, errrr there are a few text based ones [12:29] alarm, give me the full file name of your nvidia driver installer... [12:29] if it is a dynamic IP address you could try renewing your IP address on the router to see if that makes a different [12:29] ill try nano , im asuming its already on here correct ? [12:29] NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-177.80-pkg2.run [12:29] thadoood: or you could just sudo mv /etc/X11/xorg.conf to /etc/X11/broke.xorg.conf [12:29] Does the DVD version of 9.04 install different/more things than the CD version by default or just include more stuff on the cd for later installation? [12:29] Flynsarmy: just a repo on the cd [12:29] Flynsarmy: on the dvd sorry [12:30] how do i exit nano now [12:30] alarm, as far as i know linux-source shouldn't be needed, but it is worth trying since you are using old driver.... [12:30] how would i open it with nano and then save it and then exit nano [12:30] thadoood: I don't know the nano key set, is it ctrl + X ? [12:30] ive never used nano [12:30] so will the ATI drivers work in Jaunty with the current xorg? [12:30] thadoood, ctrl +x [12:30] or am I just going to be wasting my time? [12:30] arvind_khadri: thank you [12:30] will i have any problem installing them ? i mean compared to the "different?" kernel version i got [12:31] ikonia, np [12:31] ipatel: can I try using a proxy? [12:31] Hello. I want to boot the ubuntu installation from a USB stick, rather than burn it on a cd. Can I just copy the contents (cp -aR ) and fix syslinux and mbr, and boot it? or do i need to do more? [12:31] alarm, no problem. you can always uninstall it safely [12:31] thadoood, if you closely observe nano you can see the keys in the bottom with its functions [12:31] can anyone here confirm if the ATI drivers are working for you in Jaunty? [12:31] ok i am downloading them [12:31] lets see [12:32] but if you are behind a NAT the outgoing packet will be tagged with your public IP [12:32] !usb > kjelle [12:32] hmm [12:32] kjelle, please see my private message [12:32] Serenka: dont be shy, go and have it a try! :) its has to work [12:32] ikonia: what line do i need to edit inside of the xorg.conf , i figured out how to use nano and got the file open [12:32] kjelle, I *think* that would be enough. [12:32] whats a nat..I forget ipatel: [12:32] thadoood: well done [12:32] Serenka: it* has to work [12:32] mylisto: how do you connect to the internet? [12:32] wirelessly [12:32] got a wireless router [12:32] ADSL? [12:33] Szaboka: not if ATi are not supporting the latest xorg in Jaunty [12:33] So what basically happened was that ATI left many ubuntu users without good graphics support?

And how can I circumvent this? [12:34] arvind_khadri, i already google it.some of the user said linux can support. [12:34] thats why im askin here..

[12:56] Does jaunty require more resources than hardy? [12:56] Welp, the screenshot visually described my problem. It happens all the way back to GDM, even before I log in. It started after I enabled the NVidia drivers (180.44). I tried going back to 173 and up to 180.51 (the newest from Nvidia's site) with no luck [12:56] Serenka: ...I guess, since it seems that only nvidia got away relatively easy this release, for one thing. [12:56] spongebobcrankyp, mine is working fine. 180.18.04 on jaunty amd64. [12:56] is it anyway to start configuring what gfx driver to use with terminal? [12:57] When I start xorg-options-editor-gtk it says that it use the intel driver, but I cannot see where that is specified [12:57] *thinking* spongebobcrankyp [12:57] Any ideas? [12:57] I tried messing with a bunch of the options in the nvidia driver (both using nvidia-settings and modifying the xorg.conf file directly) without luck [12:57] spongebobcrankyp: Could be insufficient wattage on your PSU, or bad graphics card. [12:57] Hmm [12:57] Quadro FX 1600M video card [12:57] forgot to mention that [12:57] I've been told to add Load "extmod" to the Modules section of /etc/X11/xorg.conf to enable XFree86-Misc, but it's not working. Any ideas? [12:57] (xset still complains about a lack of XFree86-Misc) [12:58] Quadros are pretty power hungry, spongebobcrankyp [12:58] What's the wattage on your psu?

[12:59] nv ships with ubuntu [12:59] is there an alternative to "PulseAudio Device Chooser"? [13:00] Hmm. I have to say, it does sound like you might have a hardware problem. It won't be a wattage drop with a laptop i would guess. [13:00] cause the resolution is so f-ed up that it just starts the e-mail thing or firefox [13:00] can't scroll to that options because of the poor resolution [13:00] spongebobcrankyp: do you have any hardware diagnostics with the unit? [13:01] Kerio: hold alt and you can grab app windows at any point you like [13:01] Kerio: Well, you need proper screen size. [13:01] cybersplice: I doubt it.

[13:53] theuser1, you can also do sudo lshw [13:53] hey guys, when you connect via ssh you get some system information, memory ussage HD users logged in etc, is there a command to call that info? [13:53] FoolsRun: What do you mean by a system user? [13:54] erUSUL: ok this all started when i tried to upgrade to jaunty. The update manager told me that it could not contact all of the repositories because they were invalid or the code was not right. so i was told last night to delete them. Also i have noticed that when i use the online guide and it schows screen shots, my windows look very different [13:54] am i the only one who hates the new notification [13:54] FoolsRun: in theory with usermod... [13:54] Pici: heh, I'm just repeating a term I was told :) I mean a user which runs daemons like the www-data user [13:54] linduxed:if you go into synaptic undere the /settings tab "Distribution you can change it there [13:54] http://pastebin.com/m587b2d9c [13:54] oshua86: top [13:54] usr13 i have installed some nvidia tool that i think messes things up [13:54] http://www.nvidia.com/object/unix.html [13:55] any luck using an MPC computer with ubuntu?

[13:55] oshua86: who [13:55] cdw32: the first thing is normal during dist upgrade.... the second issue seems very subjective... maybe you just need to change the them you are using? [13:55] erUSUL: http://pastebin.com/m587b2d9c [13:55] FoolsRun: Theres no difference, only that typically, users that only exist to run daemons do not have a real login shell. cat /etc/passwd and compare those users to real users. [13:55] erUSUL: i cant even upgrade to intrepid [13:55] Tuplad you may need ntfs tools installed [13:55] Tuplad: it is easy to reformat a drive (you loose the data) [13:55] erUSUL: it's not an option [13:56] erUSUL: it's a 500gb harddrive with 250gb info on it [13:56] Pici: they also show up in fast user switch, which I'd rather they not :) [13:56] usr13, yeah I know these two commnads i was just looking for something that would give me the same exact output, i dunno what is creating thatinfo [13:56] Tuplad with partitioning work theres always a risk of losing data, if its valuable you should have a backup [13:56] theuser1: press space to see all the output (less is a pager to view text files) [13:56] Kerio: System > Administration > Hardware Drivers [13:57] hiya...trying to configure xstartup for a gnome-desktop, but just keep getting a grey screen.

[13:57] how do I restart X in jaunty? [13:57] Tuplad: convert ext3 to ntfs without data loss no possible afaik [13:57] FoolsRun: Actually, it maybe be better to use a new user for that, so you don't inadvertently break something. [13:57] lianimator1: sudo invoke-rc.d gdm restart [13:57] !enter | Kerio [13:57] Tuplad look for the option in gparted, and if its greyed out i beleive you need ntfs tools or some package like that.

[14:00] cdw32: there are many ubuntu mirrors but dell repos are tweaked to its machines so you really should ask someone familiar with them (delll support for example) for advice. maybe its ok to use normal ubuntu repos maybe it is not i dunno [14:00] erUSUL i was getting errors before i deleted the invalid soruces. now id do not get an option to upgrade [14:00] does anyone knows about the problem with the ATI driver...

[14:01] it is direct with an ethernet cable so i dont think theres much that needs to be configured [14:01] FoolsRun: it would be a logical feature to have [14:01] https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/348204 (second last post) [14:01] i too, have ati video card, on 8.04, it prompted me to install restricted driver, but now, it doesn't, using 9.04 now.

[14:01] oshua86: You could look at /etc/ssh/sshd_conf and see what is generating thebanner. [14:01] jtaji: I agree, but just a bit beyond my ability to affect [14:01] modprobing results is: 'WARNING: Deprecated config file /etc/modprobe.conf, all config files belong into /etc/modprobe.d/' [14:01] what that says?

I updated Ubuntu 9.04 yesterday and I have no more sound. I remember that I changed a few things in last version because I prefered Alsa to the new sound drivers, but I do not remember what I have done and how I can figure out whats happening now... Anyone could give me some tips? [14:38] rdw200169: I'll check, but I don't think so [14:38] scunizi: no go :( [14:38] i want to know, AVER media TVTUNER card with (Radio) wil work with ubuntu 9.04 gnome 64bit? [14:38] rdw200169: I've only just upgraded to 9.04 [14:38] does anyone know of any problems with Mono running high CPU? [14:38] I want to use Radio only : ) [14:39] fentible, if you check $ ps -AF | grep pulseaudio [14:39] beeman_nl: did you "fresh install"? and did you manually partition? [14:39] what i think is strange, there is a mismatch between Size and Used space: /dev/sdb1 459G 437G 0 100% /media/disk [14:39] fentible, that will tell you real quick === neuruman_ is now known as neuromancien_ [14:39] rdw200169: Ah yes, I remeber now I deleted pulsequdio [14:39] scunizi: it is a 500GB USB disk, 1 ext3 partition [14:39] xfm: thats the problem [14:39] scunizi: I edited some parts myself I think I forgot which ones [14:39] beeman_nl: what the output from sudo fdisk -l [14:39] <|blabla|> EdgEy- : please check this = http://paste.ubuntu.com/159378/plain/ [14:39] scunizi: 1 sec :) [14:39] wlodi, still not working :( [14:39] rdw200169: Yeah, I'm using it [14:39] g0th: that might have done it.

[14:40] fentible, nah, thats fine [14:40] thiebaude: pulseaudio has never worked correctly on my computer. It was still very buggy in last version [14:40] scunizi: how can I debug this? [14:40] hi, how do i set up the remote desktop on jaunty? thanks [14:40] beeman_nl: pastebin the whole output [14:40] fentible, you can do some tricks to your pulseaudio configuration to switch the rear and the front [14:40] !pulseaudio [14:40] PulseAudio is a sound server intended as a drop-in replacement for !ESD - See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PulseAudio for information and installation instructions [14:40] !nvidia [14:40] For Ati/NVidia/Matrox video cards, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto [14:40] |blabla|, you should be able to install those straight from apt without downloading the debs, but, have you tried installing "dkms"? :P [14:41] thiebaude: the upgrade should have re install pulseaudio, no? [14:41] !vnc [14:41] VNC is a protocol for remote desktop. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VNCOverSSH describes how to use it securely.

Just tried to install ubuntu 9.04, went all the way and grub installer failed somehow. it then loaded live disc i think and i played around for a bit. now i loaded back into windows 7 and i cant write to my drives, like i dont have permission.. any ideas? [14:41] <|blabla|> : my pc doesn't have any internet connection. im online only frm my office [14:41] fentible, the best way to figure out what your problem is: run pacmd. from there, type dump [14:41] Is there an official VMware or Virtualbox image for the 9.04 release? [14:41] Hi, how is it possible to boot ubuntu without xorg? I ve to repair my xorg.conf, because the screens gets black after the [14:41] |blabla|, ah, i see, hm [14:41] hi can anyone till me were i can fine the files to get a 3d mouse pointer [14:41] xfm: i dont really know anything about pulseaudio [14:41] fentible, that shows you the configuration that comes from the hal autoconfiguration. [14:42] Anybody has tried to use alsa instead of pulseaudio with the new ubuntu 9.04? [14:42] fentible, thus, after you find the correct module-sink you dump the hal autodetection and just manually load the correct default sink [14:42] fentible, with the audio in the correct direction [14:42] umm i've heard about performance regressions for intel hardware in 9.04. How serious is it? I only use metacity and no 3d games or anything, so basically what is important for me is that scrolling in my webbrowser and evince is fast enough. [14:42] |blabla|, you can download "dkms" using "sudo aptitude download dkms" on your system [14:42] thiebaude: ok, thanks. Actually in the previous version, some people didn't like it. http://www.ubuntugeek.com/how-to-remove-pulse-audio-ubuntu-810-intrepid-ibex.html [14:42] beeman_nl: so both sda1 and sdb1 are pretty big.. which hold your /home? [14:42] xfm: im using my default intel sound [14:43] ok [14:43] Hi, how is it possible to boot ubuntu without xorg? I ve to repair my xorg.conf, because the screens gets black after the progressbar [14:43] rdw200169: I was on the phone. I heard runlevels were taken out of Ubuntu? [14:43] though you will need to get the right package so that won't work if you have different architecture / ubuntu version [14:43] <|blabla|> can i download it manually? link please :) [14:43] icedwater, well, its upstart now, but you still use the rc* directories [14:43] lastman: it will boot without xorg .. just no gui.. [14:43] rdw200169: I'll give it my best shot! [14:43] lastman: we would need the output of your xorg.conf file [14:43] lastman: When Grub starts (boot), press ESC to get into the boot-menu and select the recovery-option there [14:43] |blabla|, are you on amd64 9.04 ? [14:43] scunizi: /home is not a seperate mount, just a dir in /dev/sda1 , the disk that is causing the problems is /dev/sdb1 , mounted on /media/disk/ [14:43] lastman, you could boot with xcfe or other [14:43] Yeah, I had some advice to change the gdm entry in rc2.d - did that and my system didn't boot at the time. [14:43] <|blabla|> yes amd64 9.04 [14:43] icedwater, so, you can set rc3.d to be your gui-less configuration [14:44] i'm not sure how to get the url, but that is it, just hope you have the dependencies :P [14:44] on the same here [14:44] icedwater, and set the runlevel appropriately in a grub line so inittab doesn't take over [14:44] scunizi: great a dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg gave this: http://pastebin.com/m36572d4b [14:45] this is probably not a good configuration file [14:45] thiebaude, I ve got a backup of my working xorg file, but I need a root shell to copy it back, how can I start ubuntu without gui, just to get a shell [14:45] hmm [14:45] i will try to find the url [14:45] icedwater: The best way would be to do sudo update-rc.d remove gdm that will cleanly remove it from starting [14:45] beeman_nl: I'm going to have to defer to those more knowledgable.. at this point I'm stuck [14:45] <|blabla|> ok..it seems difficult to receive the file [14:45] Pici, yeah, but then there's never an option to do gdm ... [14:45] yes i'm trying to figure out how to get aptitude/apt-get to give me the URL :) [14:45] scunizi: thanks for your help :) [14:46] What do I need / what don't I need in ~/.vnc/xstartup to get a gnome desktop when viewing a display in vncviewer? [14:46] lastman: Like I wrote: Reboot, hit ESC, boot recovery-console. [14:46] Pici, icedwater it seems to make more sense to me to have an option for both, but that works too. just kill gdm from /etc/rc2.d [14:46] g0th: that is more like the typical xorg for the latest distributions. [14:46] ah, sorry missed it [14:46] much traffic here :-) [14:46] g0th: you'll need to log out and restart the gui to get it to activate. [14:46] scunizi: what about the nvidia driver? [14:46] <|blabla|> , http://packages.ubuntu.com/ can be this site? [14:47] g0th: still there. xrandr handles most of the configuration.. [14:47] scunizi: and the rendr acceleration composite extension etc [14:47] beeman_nl: good luck with that.. [14:47] or the glx module [14:47] http://packages.ubuntu.com/jaunty/dkms [14:47] :) [14:47] or aiglx [14:47] and the screen resolution [14:47] thanks scunizi, i'll start backing up the data first [14:47] g0th: yes. you don't need a full xorg.conf file to make things work anymore. [14:47] and default depth [14:47] so why is it needed at all [14:47] the current one contains _no_ information whatsoever [14:48] g0th: for other tweeking.. also if you load nvidia-settings you can regenerate a more normal looking xorg. [14:48] <|blabla|> after that? sorry im a nubie in linux :( [14:49] |blabla|, there is a download link at the bottom for the deb, where it says "architecture: all" in the table [14:49] <|blabla|> after download i mean, sorry.. [14:49] g0th: try restarting and see if the issue is fixed [14:49] after you get it on your other machine just use (terminal) "sudo dpkg -i dkms_2.0.21.1-0ubuntu3_all.deb" [14:49] from the folder you copied it to ofc [14:49] ok [14:49] I will [14:49] Pici, rdw200169: Is it not possible to manually start x from the runlevel 2 after I log in at command mode? [14:50] icedwater, sure. /etc/init.d/gdm start [14:50] <|blabla|> yes.. i'll try it. and after that continue with re-installing nvidia driver? [14:50] hopefully you will have no unmet dependencies for dkms other wise you will need to download those ;) [14:50] yes, if it succeeds [14:50] icedwater, all you have to do is get rid of the symlink in /etc/rc2.d/ [14:50] hi [14:50] icedwater, the original file, though, /etc/init.d/gdm is still there [14:50] <|blabla|> ha.. i c. one more thing [14:50] icedwater, and you can just manually run that at your leisure === EdgEy- is now known as EdgEy [14:51] i have a poweredge R200 at home, I'd like to be able to put it into standby or power it down in some way when I'm not using it, but I need to be able to power it back on again remotely when I need to, is there a way of doing that with ubuntu? [14:51] how to use gsynaptics on ubuntu jaunty? [14:51] copying file from local computer to some server trough a nfs share is very slow on my network, i must have something wrong, anyone have some ideas ? [14:51] Doble, hmm.. perhaps with something like Wake on Lan [14:51] doble you need to config "wol" wake on lan [14:51] scunizi: I can't save it from nvidia-settings it gives the following message: [14:51] VALIDATION ERROR: Data incomplete in file /etc/X11/xorg.conf. [14:51] Device section "Configured Video Device" must have a Driver line. [14:51] anyone know how to make a DVD player work? [14:52] rdw200169: Thanks - so I just rm the symlink from rc2.d? And then in future I would be able to use startx, no? [14:52] <`Ned> I can't get my dvd drive to work either after upgrading to 9.04 [14:52] icedwater, i find from experience that /etc/init.d/gdm works a lot better than startx, but yeah [14:52] for the record : 100 Ko/s with a 1Gb/s link to the server [14:52] `Ned for me the behaviour changed some, so now the dvd drive is auto mounted to "/media/dvd label" [14:52] g0th: restart before running nvidia settings.. then test to see if your initial issue is gone.. if it is your done. if you want to regenerate the xorg after that start nvidia settings from terminal with sudo [14:52] howdy guys [14:52] whatever the label is on the disc [14:52] <|blabla|> EdgEy , i also having the trouble with gstreamer installation. can u help again? [14:53] i cant seem to get my comp to let me upgrade over SSH/VNC [14:53] |blabla|, paste the log on that site :P [14:53] anyway [14:53] is there a way to force the upgrade? [14:53] I will try ok === Floops[w]1 is now known as Floops[w] [14:53] <`Ned> EdgEy, what if my dvds have no label? [14:54] thanks guys will look into wake on lan [14:54] `Ned they get mounted to something like "UDF Volume" or similar i think [14:54] check /media/ folder see if there is anything you recognise there [14:54] it is udf volume [14:54] <`Ned> EdgEy, oh do you mean like the brand of the dvd drive? [14:54] my cdrom drive has been overall buggy since updating to 9.04, i have eject problems, but i only use it for burning now [14:55] `Ned no it will be dependant on the media you put in [14:55] i assume if the filesystem is iso9660 you would get a different mount point [14:55] <`Ned> it can still play cd but not dvd [14:55] I have installed all codecs, I have installed plugins the good,bad,and ugly. Is there anything I am missing to get the DVD player working [14:55] anyone who use vino remote desktop here? === ]L[iNu]X[ is now known as Mablo [14:56] Hey I got an annoying question [14:57] hello [14:57] <`Ned> EdgEy, my problem is the dvd won't even mount any more [14:57] anyone use vino remote desktop here? [14:57] HammerHead66: you just trying to play a dvd? a commercial dvd? [14:57] anyone using ivacy vpn with network-manager?, i cannot get it to work [14:58] I know you guys were getting a lot of Intel driver questions in here and I am sorry for asking this but Is that the reason my video won't play in any video player? It only works when I use the X11 workaround in Vlc, but that is choppy. [14:58] <|blabla|> check this http://paste.ubuntu.com/159393/ [14:58] |blabla|, you need to find those dependencies and install them [14:59] Need help desperately - upgrading Intrepid to Jaunty, I think my internet connection hiccuped. tried apt-get -f upgrade. reboot drops me to busybox shell in initramfs. any suggestions?

[15:34] Jaret: I'm not in ubuntu right now, I can have a look the next time I am [15:34] Anybody ever seen a problem with firefox in jaunty where entering a url into the address bar does not result in firefox going to get the website? [15:34] Thanks [15:34] j0nr, yes, assuming most of that memory is used for file system caching [15:34] <`Ned> hbekel, by the way someone else in here was saying they have the same problem, and it's just the dvd drive thats the problem...cd will work...same here also [15:34] mzz that would be great :-) i know i have xpidl installed in usr/lib/xulrunner../xpidl, strangely it doesnt seem to find it.. [15:35] txwikinger_work: firefox will malfunction in weird ways (including that way iirc) if there's a locking or corruption problem with places.sqlite in ~/.mozilla/firefox/*.default [15:35] `Ned: anything in dmesg? [15:35] m0u5e: It depends on what you need, I'd prefer ssh. But it'll depend a lot on the nature of your remote computers. [15:35] hi all. i am trying to use the gsynaptics settings tool, but i keep stumbling across the same error again and aegein: "GSynaptics couldn't initialize. [15:35] You have to set 'SHMConfig' 'true' in xorg.conf or XF86Config to use GSynaptics" . however, this errors seems to be bogus since intrepid. something else needs to be set, but i forgot what [15:35] can anyone help me with setting up a vnc sever on my box? [15:35] mzz: in my screen session, the little indicators at the bottom. I'm up to 80% now...I think it may be to do with me playing around launching vncserver often and closing it down again...looking in 'top' there seems to be many repeated processes now [15:35] txwikinger_work: what kind of filesystem is ~/.mozilla on? [15:35] mzz I removed the .mozilla folder [15:35] j0nr: check "free -m" [15:35] txwikinger_work: then I'm not sure what could be causing that [15:35] doleyb: how about configuring? it'd just be for personal use, so i dontk now if I'd need a GPG key [15:36] j0nr: and the "+/- cache" line in that output, specifically. [15:36] Pici: can i get the torrent of the same? [15:36] j0nr: if that still shows lots of memory used, run "top" and hit ">" twice to sort by "RES" [15:36] regjava: Sure [15:36] Jimi_Neutral: go to system - preferences and remote desktop [15:36] j0nr: (or use your favorite gui equivalent, like gnome-system-monitor) [15:36] m0u5e: there's nothing to configure for ssh really. Just give it a try. [15:36] doleyb: to enable remote connect... would I just enable it through the login preferenecs uner system>administration? [15:37] But the link that you sent me contains only htp downloads [15:37] Hymnosis, i have done that and when i try to access it from another PC nothing happens [15:37] mzz: ouch that looks worse: Mem: ttl: 1002 used: 986 free: 15 [15:37] m0u5e: Just try ssh -X localhost and see [15:37] j0nr: check the "+/-" line [15:37] My dist upgrade crashed mid way through and now it complains that it can't upgrade from hardy to gutsy (which is the reverse of what I want to do) [15:37] Is there any way to fix this? === psyjoniz1 is now known as psyjoniz2 === psyjoniz2 is now known as psyjoniz1 [15:37] j0nr: it is completely normal to have hardly anything free. most cached and buffered memory is effectively free. [15:37] <`Ned> hbekel, sorry I'm a bit mixed up...was this the one I'm supposed to type...sudo mount -t iso9660 /dev/scd0 /media/dvdrom0 [15:37] Pici: I got it [15:37] its in the same page [15:38] How do i download songbird? [15:38] Jimi_Neutral, did you enable "configure network automatically to accept connections"? [15:38] doleyb: what does X11 forwarding do? [15:38] Hymnosis, it says it is only reacable over the lcoa network but i need my boss in the states to access it [15:38] mzz: what is RES.... also theres like a dozen gnome-panels, mixer-applet etc [15:38] Dday, check their site, or try getdeb [15:38] j0nr: not an applet. It's an application. [15:38] Hymnosis, no i dint [15:38] doleyb: it says connection refused [15:38] j0nr: "RES" is a column in the application "top" [15:38] mzz: -/+ buffers/cache: 798 203 [15:38] whats getdb? [15:38] hey I have a folder full of video files, is there any quick and easy way to recursively rename them all from FILENAME.mov, to FILENAME.avi? [15:38] m0u5e: It's how you run X programs remotely (which is any program with graphics). If you can't connect, make sure you have openssh-server package. [15:38] j0nr: ok, so about 3/4 really is used, which is unusual [15:39] mzz: yeah i know, wondering what RES actually is tho? [15:39] Dday, google.com :) [15:39] hrmm. I just tried installing java for firefox to be able to use some webchats, and now FF freezes up whenever it tries to load java. is there an easier apt-get package or something to install java off of? [15:39] j0nr: resident memory usage, usually the most useful of the various memory columns in top [15:39] `Ned: if you are sure that your DVD is /dev/scd0 AND the /media/dvdrom0 mountpoint exists, yes [15:39] Jimi_Neutral, make sure you type the ip and port number it should be 5900 [15:39] j0nr: oh, and I misremembered, hit ">" once, not twice [15:39] under login, it "deny tcp connections to xserver" is checked [15:39] doleyb: ^ [15:40] i'm running ubuntu 9.04 on my system .. my problem is that my processor is running at its max rpm even though i'm not running any high end applications [15:40] mzz: i think it is due to me playing with vncserver... i keep launching, to see if it works, but killing it must not be killing other things it has launched? or something like that? [15:40] j0nr: that's possible. Have you checked in "top" yet? [15:40] kolpur, cpu with rpms ? [15:40] Hymnosis, it says it is only available locally and gives me a private address to access it, but even when i type that address into a machine it doesnt access this box [15:40] processor utilization is very high [15:40] j0nr: (or in gnome-system-monitor, which you can just launch from a terminal) [15:40] doleyb: btw, do you know where the list of known hosts is stored? :D [15:40] m0u5e: Yeah, TCP to xserver won't matter. [15:40] j0nr: if there's one or a small number of apps using lots of memory top will tell you [15:40] m0u5e: you mean /etc/hosts.allow ? [15:41] Mem: 492444k total, 450056k used, 42388k free [15:41] mzz: no one app is using a lot...but there are many many multiples [15:41] j0nr: then I'd run "ps -feH" and start killing some [15:41] All gutsy repos are gon [15:41] e? [15:41] ubuntu 9.04: where's the "private" directory gone? [15:41] j0nr: (or again do the equivalent from gnome-system-monitor if you prefer a gui) [15:41] mzz: for example 12 instances of gnome-panel [15:41] i have a sound problem with my hp hdx 18. the sound works on headphones but not on the speakers. nothing is muted. the sound is working in windows. someone knows what to do? [15:41] https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuOpenWeek starting in 19 minutes on #ubuntu-classroom [15:42] j0nr: can't tell you how best to kill those without knowing how you started them [15:42] i have a folder that sits in my root, and i on the previous version i could change into root, now that option is gone. how do i do that? [15:42] but in system monitor .. its showing only 220 mb is in use presently [15:42] doleyb: while connecting, it says that "localhost" has been added to permanently to list of RSA hosts or somethign [15:42] <`Ned> hbekel, I typed 'sudo mount -t iso9660 /dev/scd0 /media/dvdrom0' and I got this ouput 'mount: mount point /media/dvdrom0 does not exist'...and no I'm not sure what my DVD is [15:42] doleyb: i was wondering where I could go to see that list [15:42] Jimi_Neutral, make sure you enable "allow other users to control your desktop" [15:42] <`Ned> hbekel, oops sorry I typed it wrong [15:42] m0u5e: Oh, well that's ~/.ssh/known_hosts [15:42] Hymnosis, doen that [15:42] folks, my mp3s arent playing on any player.. it just stays at 0:00.. i have the gstreamer codec [15:42] <`Ned> hbekel, I typed dvd instead of dvd...I'll try again [15:42] ubuntu 9.04: the "hardware drivers" window does not show a proprietary driver for my ati card anymore, 8.10 did. how to install it now? [15:43] doleyb: ah thx [15:43] does anyone have a solution for me? im using 8.04 [15:43] doleyb: so how would i get a gui remote now? :D [15:43] splitz2153y642: go there:http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=7151931 [15:43] mzz: everytime i run 'vncserver ...' and then vncserver -kill...' it launched another instance of several apps [15:43] thanks mzz [15:43] m0u5e: Well type the name of a gui program, like firefox or nautilus or something [15:43] j0nr: sorry, not familiar with vnc [15:43] <`Ned> hbekel, ok I got this output... [15:43] can someone tell me what this means? cpio: ./bin/udevinfo: Cannot stat: No such file or directory [15:43] mercutio22: that sounds like it's looking in the wrong location [15:43] <`Ned> mount: block device /dev/sr0 is write-protected, mounting read-only [15:43] <`Ned> mount: /dev/sr0 already mounted or /media/cdrom0 busy [15:43] <`Ned> mount: according to mtab, /dev/sr0 is already mounted on /media/cdrom0 [15:43] Jimi_Neutral, try this on ur browser vnc://your.internet.ip:5900 [15:43] mzz: ok no worries [15:44] mercutio22: cpio (or something you're running that runs cpio) is looking for ./bin/udevinfo (so relative to the current directory, not the root) and not finding it [15:44] doleyb: even though im in a term right now? === ]L[iNu]X[ is now known as Noob_Asd [15:44] yeah [15:44] mercutio22: so either it shouldn't look for udevinfo or it should look somewhere else [15:45] doleyb: ah cool, so it'll run this app remotely and send me information about it? [15:45] Hi, im using Ubuntu 9.04 on a notebook and im trying to change the automatic cpu frequency policy. In 8.04 I did it by changing "apps -> gnome-power-manager -> cpufreq -> policy_ac" in gconf-editor. But I can't find anything similar in Jaunty. Has anyone an idea? [15:45] mzz, I see. I can't upgrade to jaunty unless I fix that. it seems that udevinfo file thing is missing [15:45] doleyb: can i use ssh on a windows system with gui? [15:45] mercutio22: I'm not sure if you're still supposed to have that file [15:45] m0u5e: Yes it will. To see the difference, try playing a video (like with totem) and you'll see it's slower. [15:45] Hymnosis, it came back with a page with a little bit of random text in the top right hand corner [15:46] `Ned: pastebin your /etc/fstab please [15:46] mzz, maybe I can link to where the file really is sitting... do you know where it is? [15:46] m0u5e: It is possible to run ssh and X on windows... but most windows systems don't have software for that. There are a few you can download, but I forget the names... [15:46] hi [15:46] doleyb: ah cool, is there an equivalent of the windows remote desktop? rather than just running programs remotely, is there a way for me to remotely control the actual environment on my computer? [15:46] m0u5e, you can use if you use a windows X server, like Xming [15:47] hmm, can anyone give me an idea why my server load would be 18.91, yet neither of my processor's seems to be working very hard? lol [15:47] ie. under 20% capacity according to htop [15:47] joaopinto: thanks [15:47] !vinagre [15:47] Sorry, I don't know anything about vinagre [15:47] hey, my 9.04 install always hangs at "select and install software" with "retrieving file ... of ... [15:47] mercutio22: "locate" can tell [15:47] can i get some help with my sound PLEASEEEEE [15:48] mzz, why do you think I should not have it? [15:48] * mzz should actually reboot into ubuntu before trying to help here [15:48] hi! I updated today and my system load is very high. I think I this is caused by X [15:48] mercutio22: because iirc recent versions of udev no longer include that file [15:48] how to install mp3 support for amarok on 9.04? [15:48] m0u5e: sure, you can do that with ssh, or with other things. One thing you might look at is vncserver. [15:48] the number always depends on installing with network or without [15:48] reid: if you mean load as reported by top or similar programs, it's usually a cumulative average [15:48] <`Ned> hbekel, I typed '/etc/fstab' and I got 'bash: /etc/fstab: Permission denied'. then I tried 'sudo /etc/fstab' and I got 'sudo: /etc/fstab: command not found' [15:48] is there a way to get beyond this part? :( [15:48] `Ned: use an editor [15:49] `Ned: (sudo nano /etc/fstab) [15:49] hbekel: htop gives you 15 min, 5 min, and 1 min [15:49] `Ned: the contents of that file [15:49] mzz, I see. Locate indeed does not reveal anything. The jaunty upgrade process looks for it nevertheless. I am stuck. [15:49] hi [15:49] hbekel: all are above 10, which is obviously not ok =P [15:49] mercutio22: ask the channel, I'm not familiar with that upgrade process [15:49] reid: not normal, but I've had the system perfectly usable with a load pushing 100 :) [15:50] mzz, thanks. I will post in the forum. This seems rather complex [15:50] `Ned: /etc/fstab is not a command, its a file. [15:50] mzz: lol I wish that were the case with my server. once it reaches a load of about 10, it becomes almost impossible to use lol [15:50] mercutio22: it may very well be a known problem, I'm not at all familiar with this upgrade [15:50] doleyb: okay thanks for the help to get started, it seems that theres a lot of research for me to do :) [15:51] reid: (you can easily raise load to ridiculous numbers by running a bunch of simple processes that do nothing but spin in an infinite loop) [15:51] Hello. Is there a way to close down an account in the ubuntuforums.org? [15:51] henux: Please ask in #ubuntuforums [15:51] Pici: thank you [15:51] I got it! 9.04! [15:51] reid, if the server isn't a production box, have you tried rebooting it? [15:51] :D [15:51] m0u5e: Well it's not hard, but i don't totally remember. [15:51] mzz, right. I will give it a shot. [15:52] reid: check top, check ps -feH for silly processes [15:52] a [15:52] 9.04 is good soooo fast.... [15:52] naber lan all :D [15:52] <`Ned> hbekel, I typed 'sudo nano /etc/fstab' like mzz said and it shows my 'UUID'. is it safe to post that on the web? [15:52] `Ned: yes, imho [15:52] inflex: ok, pulseaudio removed, ALSO works correctly [15:52] cybersplice: yeah, server load still climbs back up though, the only thing running on the server is LAMP + Bittornado + Torrentflux front-end [15:52] türkiþ [15:52] hatun yokmu [15:52] `Ned: yes [15:52] reid: it's a load average, have you had busy periods ?

[15:59] Hexbomber: oh, nevermind then >.< [15:59] `Ned: I'm sorry, you have to know what the device node for your dvd drive is to mount it manually. i can't find that out for you because it depends on the way your system is assembled. Besides, i can only assist you in mounting stuff manually because i've never used any automounting and i don't use gnome, so i'm not familiar with the way it's set up on ubuntu. you could try and see if you have a /dev/dvd0 [15:59] or similar, but you haven't told me yet wether mounting manually is what you are up to at the moment [15:59] reid, that is not true, the ati proprietary driver available from the repositories does support the current xorg on jaunty [16:00] http://pastebin.ubuntu.com:80/159433/ [16:00] /var/log/btmp The file is not a regular file or is not a text file.

[16:02] m0u5e: its the X native display protcol [16:02] After some time I'm not able to do left-click [16:02] hi [16:02] <`Ned> hbekel, oh ok. well thanks so much for taking all that time help me out, I really appreciate it [16:02] jrk, how small _ [16:02] vinagre is a vnc client [16:02] reid: yeah, it'll take a while before people stop thinking "closed" automatically means "better/faster" when it comes to video drivers [16:03] CyberSix, well, it's the keys for wlan, the euro-symbol, etc. so not that important for me [16:03] `Ned: maybe you will have more luck posting on the forums, be sure to post your /etc/fstab as well and describe your problem in detail [16:03] m0u5e, you woul need a X server, either a unix/linux native, or from windows, using xming o cygwin/X [16:03] yeah.. all my compiz settings appear to still be there in CCSM but they don't apper active.. and all my fonts are screwy... hmm this is not good haha [16:03] jaunty upgrade failed, when i go to system monitor-> system tab it shows my version as 9.04 but my kernal version is still 2.6.27 [16:03] Who cares about the euro symbol! [16:03] Hi there, my laptop keeps crashing down a mere minute after a successful logon. I've been wandering a bit and found a lot of ACPI ERRORs in my Ubuntu logs :/ [16:03] * cybersplice hisses. [16:03] ... anyone knows what this means and how to fix it ? [16:03] mzz: well, unfortunately ati dropped my card, which is still being sold in retail laptops. And because its still so new, the open-source driver isn't really a solution. I'm stuck with 8.10 (which is totally fine for me) === ichat is now known as Ichat-verry-sad [16:03] <`Ned> hbekel, ok, thanks so much! [16:03] I've upgraded to jaunty and since that after a few hours of work I'm not able to do the left-click [16:04] reid: yeah, bit of an annoying transitionary (sp?) period for some cards, afaik [16:04] only possibility is to restart kdm then [16:04] joaopinto: so to connect and get a gui... what would i need to do? :D [16:04] scusate io ho 2 schede audio, una è integrata alla scheda madre. Come faccio a sceglire quali delle 2 usare?

Grazie! (click col tasto destro sul nome del canale per entrare) [16:04] reid: my much older card works just fine, and afaict support for newer cards in the open driver is improving pretty rapidly [16:04] m0u5e, it depends wether you want to use vnc or a remote x session [16:04] ubottu thanks [16:04] You're welcome! But keep in mind I'm just a bot ;-) [16:05] Upgrade Problem!! 8.04 -> 8.10.. just failed on a stupid sript error, and aborted at the 98% done mark!! What do I do ?? [16:05] ok, xfs_check says: [16:05] mzz: yeah, I assume that I will be on jaunty within the month. (with better performance than I currently get from the proprietary driver) [16:05] jaunty upgrade failed, when i go to system monitor-> system tab it shows my version as 9.04 but my kernal version is still 2.6.27, upgrade option gone from update manager, how should i proceed? [16:06] How I can delete my post from paste.ubuntu.com? [16:06] When i try to open firefox it says [16:06] immoT-, it usually gets removed in time [16:06] ok to connect to my network from outside i would either A. have to port foward 5900 to this box or B. use VPN and then once connected use VNC to connect to this box is that correct? [16:06] Hisotaso: looks we didnt get much response [16:07] Jimi_Neutral: or use ssh port forwarding, possibly. [16:07] :-( [16:07] Firefox is already running, but is not responding. To open a new window, you must first close the existing Firefox process, or restart your system. [16:07] Qwindoo, there is an option you can pass the kernel in order not to use acpi. [16:07] joaopinto: i'm guessing there are advantages and disadvantages to either? [16:07] I have tried restarting and it still not working [16:07] Dday: what kind of filesystem is ~/.mozilla on?

[16:07] mzz, aye but those two ways are right yea? [16:07] darkblue_B: ya ill keep trying [16:07] I have my harddisk encrypted via cryptsetup. My home folder in on an extra partition and mounted to /dev/mapper/home. After the update to Jaunty, I am asked to enter the passphrase for all partitions (expected swap, thats normal) but when I try to log in, GNOME tells me, it can't find my home folder at /home/klgtre. I can't log in! [16:07] btw when i try to use tsclient to connect after enabling VNC the VNC option isnt there under protocol... do i need to install additional libraries? [16:07] Guillem_, yeah, I've tried passing noacpi and noapic but it didn't change anything [16:07] ntfs [16:07] i think [16:07] not sure though [16:07] Qwindoo, :(( [16:07] yeah :/ [16:08] is there any plugin there for pidgin so that i the song i pla on banshee shows up as my status? [16:08] how you check mzz? [16:08] hey, can anyone help me with a vpn issue ? [16:08] Jimi_Neutral: I don't reall have experience with vpn/vnc, but vpn sounds like one option, yes. And the port forward obviously is, as long as allowing anyone access to the port is safe [16:08] puneeth, pidgin music tracker [16:08] someone advised me to change Xorg.conf, setting a generic driver [16:08] Dday: you'd usually know if it's nfs (a network filesystem) [16:08] I think the name was vesa [16:08] mzz, ok thanks bud :) [16:08] Qwindoo, If I was you, I would start with noapic, noacpi and then try to find whats wrong in the logs [16:08] i dont think it is then === disappearedng is now known as disappearedng_ [16:08] Do you think it would work ? how do I do that ?

[16:09] but i cant see any of the other parts of the network [16:09] i had occasions of accidents in the past which may have damaged my head. i don't know [16:09] When I mount a smb share using cifs, symlinks on the remote share are treated as absolute on my system. For example if I navigate to //host/share/mnt (which on the remote system is a symlink to /mnt) directs my system to it's local /mnt. How can I make it work correctly? [16:09] does that ring you a bell, Guillem_ ? :) [16:10] Hisotaso, thanks. I'll look at it === disappearedng is now known as disappearedng_ [16:10] Dday: run "find ~/.mozilla -not -uid $(id -u)", any output? (run as you, not root) [16:10] Dday, if you messed up your mozilla profile, just rename your current profile, from the terminal: mv ~/.mozilla ~/.mozilla.old [16:10] Vlet: iirc there's a server-side switch to change that [16:10] joapinto; i dont find any such plugin === disappearedng_ is now known as disappearedng [16:10] Dday: or what joaopinto said, but I'm assuming you don't want to lose all your bookmarks/settings/etc [16:11] puneeth, http://code.google.com/p/musictracker/ [16:11] mzz: thanks - without knowing whether or not its a client or server issue, it's tough to know where to start :) [16:11] Hisotaso, open a terminal and run : sudo apt-get upgrade [16:11] Qwindoo, my concern is that if you have passed noacpi, nolapic these ACPI errors should not be there... [16:11] dilan@ubuntu:~$ /. mozilla -not -uid $(id i-u) [16:11] id: i-u: No such user [16:11] bash: /.: is a directory [16:11] does any one know a reason why Ubuntu freezes while shutting down after the unloading bar and it sits at a blinking cursor until keys are pressed then it powers down? [16:11] MK13: what version of ubuntu? [16:11] mzz, Dday was trying to move it's windows firefox profile to it's home dir, this was some hours ago, so most likely he corrupted it's profile :P [16:11] Qwindoo, if they are there.... perhaps is because you have not passed the options correctly ... [16:11] joap, it was working before lol [16:11] joaopinto; thank you very much [16:11] and also songbird isn't opening [16:12] jhilmer: ive done that a few times but ill give it another go [16:12] err, I've passed noacpi and noapic, is it noapic or nolapic ? [16:12] Dday: to get your home folder dont forget the ~ "~/.mozilla" [16:12] Vlet: can't find it offhand, so I might be wrong [16:12] just ungraded to jaunty and now hulu fancast and pandora do not work. Any fixes/urls? [16:13] Dday: "id -u", not "id i-u" [16:13] i am using Jaunty, but it froze on Intrepid too [16:13] One problem, not sure if anyone's noticed this..

[16:35] I will try [16:35] is there a fix yet [16:35] zxd: similarly voluntary preemption is fine for an ordinary desktop workload.

I'm just wondering what the command is to sign the keys though terminal.. it's like something something 43C0AFF0D7FAE680 [16:35] Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) [16:35] Advabce: because UE does it by default, its a problem, check your sources.list file and the add the keys for the corresponding repos [16:35] Hymnosis: try opera [16:35] zxd: (there's usually a tradeoff between lower latency and better throughput.

The way I see it is the head developers were like Heylets just say FXXX it and have a multiverse of beta testers.. in actuality its a good idea to work out the bugs in a distro but it's a bullcrap way to handle things.. Ubuntu is famous for having a crap load of bugs during their first few months of deployment. [16:41] to old [16:41] depape: getting someone to run "fc-match Monospace" for you will probably give you the info you want [16:41] depape: (I'm not in ubuntu currently, so I can't run it for you) [16:41] mzz: I'm not sure about the iirc thing, but I cat-ed the /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf and it shows this "blacklist garmin_gps" [16:41] DIL: go to ccsm cube reflection and deformation..check the images tab in that [16:41] viktor: http://www.getdeb.net/search.php?keywords=songbird [16:41] advance having no issues on my p3 dell [16:41] shane2peru: with no comment next to it describing why it's there? bah...

I'm sorry, but I'm afraid I don't have any ideas either [16:43] student: man the AVermedia site s***s [16:43] youngeezy: oh nice u sent me to getdeb.com not .net thats y i couldnt find it thank you so much really appreciate it [16:43] Advance: yes, that is the crux of it all, when you upgrade, things just break ;) [16:44] hey... i installed a gtk theme but it didnt apply correctly to the main panel... how can i fix that?

Unfortunately I made a mistake while installing 9.04. I have a separate partition /home or /dev/sda4. This one has my previous login info and all. I forgot to set this as the mount partition at install time so it created a new /home in / partition and created a login. I would like to use my previous /home/ now. How do I do it?

I'm running a fairly new nvidia card, it's x86_64 and it used to work fine before the upgrade. Any suggestions? I'm without a desktop, so my googling is very limited. [17:53] to install gecko .. all that it takes is just to uncompress it into a dir ?

[17:53] antonio_, oh with the live cd the desktops can be switched... but not when you actually installed ubuntu on the harddrive? === Mackers is now known as mack [17:53] lostbuthappy how do i find out what programs i got installed through the commandline === mack is now known as _mack_ [17:54] kjkj1 slech installed in the packagemanager [17:54] dboehmer: grep KVM .config, of course [17:54] zonked: I had flashing problems that were caused by compiz.

[18:29] c_korn: (not over the network at least, it would be verbose to the server-side log if configured that way) [18:29] torn, Available: Disk size; free = memory that is still free; used: memory that has been allocated already; [18:29] torn: where are you getting the numbers from?

But I don't get the difference between "free" and "available" space? [18:32] can i use the same /home partition or will it cause problems [18:32] whoops, that won't work. [18:32] i guess i could use a different login name for each but i'd prefer to not if possible [18:33] torn: possible one includes space reserved for root and the other doesn't [18:33] torn: the available is what can actually be consumed. I /think/ the free includes the reserved superuser blocks [18:33] mzz: exactly [18:33] adrian4design: you sure they arent just working in offline mode? [18:33] Ah, roger that. [18:33] torn: you can tweak that reserved space using tune2fs, but you should probably leave it alone if in doubt [18:33] My EeePC with an Intel GPU is producing errors with OpenGL programs. Says it fails to initialize GEM. A bug report mentions that this means it's reverting back to an Xv port for 3D, and that you need a non-bigmem kernel to make it work. I can't find anything on Google about it. Apparently, Jaunty has a bigmem kernel, and the old custom EeePC kernel from array.org did not? Help? [18:34] how do I check [18:34] torn: I use reiser for my /home partition and it's free and avail are the exact same. my ext partitions show more free than avail [18:34] xchat-gnome not working since i changed the transparency setttings in it [18:34] It's no problem.

[18:34] could not launch wifi radar: failed to execute child process "su-to-root" (no such file or directory) error [18:34] So if it says "available" 94 GB, but "free" 102 GB, I can only store an additional 94 GB, right? [18:35] nope just checked both and neither is set to offline [18:35] torn: as a user, yes. Only root gets access to the remainder [18:35] Thanks, mbeierl. [18:35] Hello Everyone [18:35] Cleared that up for me. :) [18:35] torn: the idea is to reserve space for the operating system to continue to function if users fill up the filesystem [18:35] Oh, but one more thing: [18:35] It's not just the "/" FS. [18:36] It includes /home and /mnt/ntfs (which is an NTFS partition on a seperate hard disk) [18:36] The graphics adapter is an Intel Mobile 915GM/GMS/910GML [18:36] torn: take a look at the fs type. If it's ext2, ext3, or ext4 it'll have reserved space [18:36] parsnip just opened that link to bodypiercing!!!! I think dig was a command line instruction wasn't it? [18:36] c_korn: what is unissh aliased to? [18:36] Even the /mnt/ntfs partition is giving me less space on "Available" [18:37] No wait, never mind. [18:37] I have a lazy eye. :P [18:37] torn: I don't know much about ntfs, other than it has a journal space reserved and some sort of allocation table thingie [18:37] YeTr2: http://pastebin.com/d636e6f91 [18:37] Only my ext3 partitions have that difference.

Alsa audio works only if i'm root, do i have to add my user to some group or set some permissions? [18:40] pepperjack, hm i see [18:40] when doing a ls command, what is the syntax to pause.. similar to ms-dos command dir /p ? [18:40] EdgEy: I wouldn't do it that way around, but I'm too new to ubuntu to know if doing it the right way aroun works reliably. [18:40] pipe to less [18:40] EdgEy: specifically, I'd purge the meta package and rely on (auto?)clean to wipe the rest [18:40] how about if for example i just took the list of packages [18:40] from kubuntu-desktop and removed them all [18:41] EdgEy: (I wouldn't do what pepperjack said because it's quite reasonable to have some qt or even kde apps installed while using gnome) [18:41] ah yes [18:41] http://software.silicon.com/applications/0,39024653,39131277,00.htm [18:41] DIL, syntax as this ls -AM |less correct ? [18:41] well if i just install kubuntu-desktop, and save the list of packages [18:41] i can just remove that list later (only the ones it installed) right? [18:41] cruicial_Thread: yea [18:41] hello [18:41] EdgEy: you can do that by sudo apt-get installl kubuntu-desktop -s > packages.txt or whatever. the -s means simulate install but dont really install anything you can also use apt-get to just list packages pulled by metapackage [18:41] Action Parsnip: "no server could be reached" I am using a wireless router with four 3 winxp on the same network [18:42] any of you use Ubuntu 9.04, I'm having some issues with ruby not finding the shared object libWand.so after I upgraded my 8.10 to 9.04 [18:42] EdgEy: the system does have a separate list of packages you explicitly installed (versus ones pulled in as dependencies) and is capable of automatically cleaning up unused dependencies, but the way that works is a bit confusing to this newbie (there's more than one list depending on which frontend you use...) [18:42] pepperjack yes that's as i thought [18:42] hold on [18:42] how to i can convert ext4 to ext3 ? [18:42] DIL, thanks again [18:42] cruicial_Thread: np [18:42] http://pastie.org/459957 -- here's the issue [18:42] how can i remove the "{a}" from the list easily without going through them all, it's a few hundred packages [18:42] EdgEy: mzz: you can use aptitude to remove metapackages but the way i outlined is kinda the old school ubuntu way of removing kde. note that kde though isnt going to take that much disk space really so doesnt hurt to leave it. you just choose gnome or kde at login [18:43] ActionParsnip: wmaster0: unknown hardware address type 801 [18:43] can't create /var/run/dhclient.wlan0.leases: Permission denied [18:43] wmaster0: unknown hardware address type 801 [18:43] Listening on LPF/wlan0/00:14:a5:e8:c6:a2 [18:43] Sending on LPF/wlan0/00:14:a5:e8:c6:a2 [18:43] capadac: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.

[18:43] EdgEy: basically [18:43] pepperjack: depends on what you're after, really. For actually force-removing qt or kde what you said makes sense. For undoing what installing kubuntu-desktop did what I said should make more sense, but I don't know how to do it reliably.

I recently upgraded to 9.04, like most of you properly also did.. I noticed that it already installed a wireless network driver for me when i booted, but my problem is, that this driver is apparently unstable (It's like it need more percentage of wireless connection before it want to connect, or something.. And sometimes it's just like it turns itself off, and i can't then see any wireless networks at all..), and not as good as my old one (a windows [18:46] driver under ndiswrapper). Can I in anyway make the preinstalled driver better (more stable or something), or maybe uninstall it, and then install ndiswrapper again or something, and make it work as good as it did in my 8.10 install?

[18:51] i use 64bit xubuntu [18:51] haha [18:51] <- [18:51] Are you having the same problems with flash? [18:51] i upgraded to 9.04 but am having lil problems [18:51] jap [18:51] How can I disable bigmem/PAE in Ubuntu Jaunty? [18:51] GAZRA, randomly "white box" instead of the video? [18:51] the computer freezes time to time [18:51] lol [18:51] capadac: ask canonical, just use a wired connection til you get it installed as well as full updates [18:51] Gazra: aye [18:51] EdgEy: Are you having the same problems with flash? [18:51] GAZRA, what problems are you having [18:52] ActionParsnip: i got this error http://paste.ubuntu.com/159532/ [18:52] gotunandan: i already uninstalled pulseaudio, i'd rather just avoid it altogether, straight also works fine. [18:52] that's because of the 64bit Firefox to 32bit adobe plugin wrapper [18:52] EdgEy: It's not randomly, when flash crashes you need to restart firefox, then it may work! [18:52] it's crappy by design [18:52] GAZRA, hm [18:52] i always had to uninstall/reinstall "flashplugin-nonfree" [18:52] xirov: easiest way may be to do a lsmod and compare the chipset/drivers about halfway down page https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/WirelessCardsSupported [18:53] EdgEy: And the alfa version from adobe crashes with the same frequency, but the whole firefox blow off [18:53] what is the point of being able to set up an local main ubuntu mirror if the software distributed by ubuntu is prejudice against using it? [18:53] hello really strange problem in ubuntu.when i try to change the preferences in xchat. the window just becomes unclickable . that means i cant click on it to change the settings. it also happens with compiz settings manger window. any idea [18:53] xirov: note that by 'easy' i do not mean 'convenient' :) [18:53] capadac: you may have to use aptoncd to get the package to then transfer it, the fact that wlan0 is scanning means it is onstalled correctly, just needs linking to an AP [18:53] hi all, i am using XDMCP to remotely login to ubuntu desktop 9.04, i am already logged in on the local machine, when i use xdmcp i end up logging into a new session, how can i connect to an existing session, any ideas?

It was working last night, now it's just static [18:53] Upgrading 8.04.2 to 8.10 lost network connection. dmesg reports a kind of loop comprising 7 lines which repeat themselves almost identically: "eth0: Tx queue start entry 4 dirty entry 0.; eth0: Tx descriptor 0 is 0008a06e.

This repeat [18:53] n3wt0n: X doesn't support that feature. Consider vnc [18:54] n3wt0n: connecting to an existing one would be using vnc, not xdmcp [18:54] hey how can i make my terminal look like this? http://gnome-look.org/content/preview.php?preview=1&id=54166&file1=54166-1.png&file2=&file3=&name=Neutronium+DeepBlack [18:54] pepperjack, okay :) Thanks a lot!

[18:54] whenever i click in preferences window in xchat .the window becomes resized. happens also in compiz settings manager [18:54] Morning/afternoon. Would anyone know if Ubuntu Intrepid will ever get Python 2.6 in aptitude? === Zagitas is now known as mute [18:55] Does anybody know how to identify which driver exactly i need for modem (Agere chipset) on Toshiba Satellite to run on Ubuntu 8.10. Thanks in advance. [18:55] xirov: should be /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist file may have a .conf in certain versions [18:55] Wolfman2000: That kind of upgrade isn't done, intrepid doesn't get new major versions. === mute is now known as ldvx [18:55] I have this statically linked sun JRE here(jre-1.5.0), but the 'java' binary in the package gives me a "no such file or directory: ./java" when i test it out. Normally that's an error I see in shell scripts with incorrect !SHELL declerations at the top of them. What could cause this in a statically linked JRE? [18:55] How do I get sudo to inherit my logged in user's path??? All I end up getting is a "sudo: gem: command not found" error. I added the path to /root/.bash_profile and "sudo env | grep $PATH" ain't showing it. Anyone run into this issue?? 'sudo -i gem' don't work either. this is frustrating! [18:56] doleyb: so Python 2.6 will never be available to Intrepid users? [18:56] via aptitude? [18:56] doleyb: its crazy [18:56] hey people [18:56] hola gente [18:56] pepperjack, okay.. :) how do i find out what the name of my wireless card is? [18:56] Wolfman2000: Maybe someone else will provide a package repository for it, but I don't think there'd be a big demand for that. People who really want python26 can probably install it themselves. [18:57] Hello, If i wrote an app I would like to add into the ubuntu repository, how do I go about doing it? [18:57] any links? [18:57] xirov: lspci -v will list all devices youll need to scroll through em to find your wireless card [18:57] Can anyone help me with this weird problem I'm having with my nvidia drivers and xserver?

Obrigado. === Mud|shower is now known as Mud [19:02] cornwall yes supposedly [19:02] how do I find the id for a disk?

[19:03] wasme jaunty broke a bunch of stuff for me [19:03] Lazermann: I've never gotten it to work either. I'm sorry, I'm not the one to ask. All I can say is that it'd probably be better if you get a supported external modem for 10 dollars [19:04] eat my cock [19:04] Lazermann: I'm in the same situation as you are when I go home for breaks [19:04] ActionParsnip: i got this error http://paste.ubuntu.com/159532/ [19:04] hello [19:04] Hello, i planing to do upgrade to 9.04, so i backed up my current system to another partition. I cloned the whole system to different partition with "cp -ax / /newdisk". Now if my current system become broken after upgrade, what would be the best way to restore from backup? [19:04] yeah i know...but it should be working, so i just wanted to know how to adjust it correctly [19:04] external modem is the way to go on that... [19:04] cornwall thx anyway [19:04] I have a USB drive plugged in, mtab says "/dev/sda1 /mnt/usb ntfs rw 0 0", but even root gets an error that is a read-only file system when trying to do anything to it, what can I Do?

The problem is on the login screen. When it appears the font size is too big. So I enter my username and it is not readable [19:06] i am still busy with the system of my friend [19:06] capadac: not sure there man, use aptoncd or a wired connection to install the tools you like to configure your connection [19:06] what xmms2 client is the best? [19:06] hbekel: you're still there? [19:06] Lazermann: theres lots of help online, google "lucent winmodem linux" [19:06] dboehmer: yup [19:07] i have put "kvm" into /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist but it is still loaded on reboot [19:07] Lazermann: I've had a brief look and have found many howto's. It looks like lucent 'enjoys the most support under Linux' [19:07] i also put "kvm_intel" there. it's loaded, too [19:07] Upgrading 8.04.2 to 8.10 lost network connection. dmesg reports a kind of loop comprising 7 lines which repeat themselves almost identically: "eth0: Tx queue start entry 4 dirty entry 0.; eth0: Tx descriptor 0 is 0008a06e.

[19:08] ath9k driver has a weak signal :-( [19:08] pepperjack, i don't think i understand dude... but i got somekind of idea that the "module" is ath5k .. is that possible? it was just a thought, since my wireless card is a Atheros . === i is now known as Guest85862 [19:09] cornwall: you can teach yourself a lot just through wiki's and man pages [19:09] cornwall: there are evidently a lot of people out there teaching for free [19:09] anyone that could help me out improving disk write speeds with CPQARRAY with a HP p400 controller? [19:09] i am unable to change preferences in xchat . help [19:09] daedra: I understand that, but between buying a ten dollar modem that works and rifling through twenty tabs (which is when I gave up), I'd choose the former [19:09] pragad7: #xchat [19:09] I know I'm not the only one who's having this problem with xserver locking up after installing the nvidia drivers (from the countless and useless threads online), but has anyone in here actually run into them, and possibly fixed the issue??? [19:09] hey i have a huge problem [19:09] dboehmer: did you use 'blacklist kvm' ? [19:09] someone please help me, i'm gonna get mad... [19:10] i restarted linux and it forgot all its settings... [19:10] daedra: I'm all for learning more about the system, but it reached a point where I didn't want to go any further [19:10] compiz, and other settings [19:10] why is she doing it????? [19:10] ive got a list of files to delete that are only newline separated, how do i pass that list to rm? [19:10] cornwall: yeah you have to make a decision. do you want to get really involved in the technical details, or just buy something that has support [19:10] hbekel: what do you mean?? i have just put the module names into that file, one name per line [19:10] xirov: yeah if you see ath5k that is it [19:10] can anyone help I am trying to copy a folder from my desktop to themes folder but keep getting permision denied [19:10] sudo ftw ? [19:10] i have just found that there is the "kvm" daemon [19:11] dboehmer: afaik you have to have "blacklist modulename" on a single line for each module [19:11] pepperjack, so i should just blacklist that one, restart, and install ndiswrapper? [19:11] how to prevent one daemon from being started at boot in ubuntu? [19:11] he anyone any idea with windows becoming bigger than the screen [19:11] what media player should I use to play xml podcasts? [19:11] daedra: don't take this the wrong way, but why isn't the lucent winmodem supported to just work? A lot of windows machines have those sets. Is there some sort of legal reason? [19:11] My sound was working fine up until today. I don't really know what to do to try and fix it or whats wrong, any ideas? [19:11] Hey, I've been having a lot of problems getting my nvidia drivers to work in ubuntu 9.04... Basically, 90% of the time, upon bootup, once it gets past the boot splash screen, rather than going to the login screen, my monitor just goes blank and my keyboard won't even work [19:12] cornwall: there isn't inbuilt kernel support yet [19:12] xirov: basically. you dont need to reboot though just sudo rmmod [19:12] I think maybe I have just had the same problem the other person is referring to earlier like a minimum signal strentgh to connect to my wifi can I roll back my driver to prior to installing the new distro? [19:12] daedra: That's all? How odd. I remember reading something about Intrepid supporting it a long time ago, but I guess that never happened [19:12] pepperjack, so i shouldn't blacklist it? just rmmod? [19:12] cornwall: windows is has the largest marketshare, so companies like Lucent write windows drivers as a priority [19:13] cornwall: it's stupid not to really [19:13] if you want to make money [19:13] finchx6: https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+question/7901 [19:13] daedra: of course, but if we could incorporate packages and whatnot to support winmodems manually, why couldn't we make it work like any other piece of hardware in linux ("just work")? [19:14] i restarted linux and it forgot all its settings... [19:14] compiz, and other settings [19:14] why is she doing it????? [19:14] cornwall: well I'm sure in time it will be built into the kernel [19:14] If I installed the source package for a kernel module, how do I go about compiling that source (I've only ever compiled from a tar.gz I've downloaded) [19:14] xirov: blacklist to make it stick but until you reboot you can just rmmod [19:14] Hello, my computer was just under attack. My firewall was going crazy, my computer locked up... [19:14] is good idea make update with "pre-released updates" active? [19:14] dboehmer: use update-rc.d to disable/enable daemons [19:14] cornwall: and there may even be distributions with the drivers in it's kernel [19:15] Can I speak with someone about how to make sure my computer is safe right now? [19:15] like windows for example [19:15] pepperjack, kk :) thanks again [19:15] Baatti: you're running ubuntu? [19:15] Yes [19:15] how do you get HDMI sound out for Intel ALC268? [19:15] 9.04 I believe [19:15] daedra: wish I could contribute to help implement it, but I'm afraid I must selfishly allocate my time differently [19:15] Baatti: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=510812 [19:16] My sound was working fine up until today. I don't really know what to do to try and fix it or whats wrong, any ideas?

[19:16] does anyone knows about amarok's problem with jaunty ? [19:16] hbekel: thanks for your hint [19:16] i cannot hear anymore music with amarok [19:16] hbekel: according to a google result i just installed rcconf [19:16] yes amarok 2 blows [19:16] downgrade to 1.4 [19:17] it's amarok or my linux conf ?

It keeps reverting to US which makes things difficult [19:18] supsup [19:18] dboehmer: you can basically just edit/remove the symlinks in the appropriate rc. dir. no idea if that rcconf works well with ubuntu [19:19] how to install "lynx" in ubuntu? === Benwa_ is now known as Benwa [19:19] BudLite: sudo apt-get install lynx [19:19] dboehmer: nevermind, just saw that rcconf == update-rc.d [19:19] says no installable something [19:19] Package lynx is not available, but is referred to by another package.

[19:38] is their any known bugs in 8.10 concerning loss of sound?

[19:42] I have recovery dissk [19:42] disks* [19:43] but I dont want to do a factory restore [19:43] you need a real disk [19:43] heres specific, my sound doesn't work, it worked last night. I don't know what to do now. Thought maybe somebody with knowledge of this OS might be able to at least point me in the right direction [19:43] or supergrub [19:43] jonaskoelker: I think it's the "Recovery Console" thing -- 'fixboot' and 'fixmbr' [19:43] grawity: looks right [19:43] anyone know how to fix a now non-working alsa? [19:43] it can restore a windows mbr [19:43] SomethingThatIsn: what grawity said [19:43] gogeta: then you can reinstall ubuntu :) [19:43] after upgrading to jaunty, graphics are dreadfully slow (watching TV is impossible) and the screen goes completely black before some applications start. what can I do about this? [19:44] martin or use the live cd [19:44] is there a limit to the size or length of a system sound in ubuntu, i can only get half of the wav i want to play for startup [19:44] shled: update video driver(s) [19:44] shled do you have desktop effects on?

[19:44] to put grub back [19:44] or even supergrub [19:44] yes several times [19:44] shled: the bad answer is to install jaunty minus one (err, intrepid) [19:44] gogeta: that would be how, yes :) [19:44] odinsbane, no i don't [19:44] how can i install kde from jaunty is that a clean installation or i have to mee up with the programms when i retutrn to jaunrty? [19:45] jonaskoelker: this is only the last option for me [19:45] shled: yeah, I figured... [19:45] ubuntistas kubuntu [19:45] msn102: are you sure the problem isn't outside your computer? try plugging headphones directly into motherboard [19:45] !kubuntu [19:45] Kubuntu is Ubuntu with KDE, the K Desktop Environment, instead of Gnome. See http://kubuntu.org for more information - For support: #kubuntu - See also !KDE [19:45] jonaskoelker: it would help a lot if I could grasp why it happens [19:45] shled: What are you watching video with, I found vlc is worse now, while gnome got better when I switched for 8.04(32bit) to 9.04(64) [19:45] ok ill try...

[19:46] Nope, headphones don't work either [19:46] odinsbane: I was using kaffeine and was very happy with it. the problem is that graphics are generally *really* slow now, I can even watch websites update from top to bottom of the window in firefox [19:46] ?

Windows still makes sound so its gotta be software [19:47] martin_henry: i was playing with hindi/devnagiri.. and now my language has been set to that.. so the ubuntu screen wont let me login [19:47] epalm: you're chatting with webcam? lol [19:47] shled: I have no clue, you can check your xorg log and see what errors there are.

(xubuntu ibex) [19:48] gogeta: aw,any idea why? [19:48] p-f: um, no, they're suggesting he install KDE desktop metapackage [19:48] Assid: press ctrl-alt-F1 and log in; then, as root (say, sudo bash) run export DISPLAY=:0 and then `setxkbmap us' (if a us keymap is good for you) [19:48] acode_: not sure of the site without googleing but its really straight forward.

[19:49] ubuntistas: you can switch from ubuntu to kubuntu just by installing new packages, or you can do a clean install [19:49] hey, is compiz-settings-manager still around somewhere in jaunty? [19:49] ubuntistas: so it both is that, and it's something else [19:49] a-stray-cat`: ccsm [19:49] phase_shift314: so all other audio works fine?

[19:50] no ctrl+click does not work [19:50] Assid: I'd start poking around with a live CD and chrooting into your installed ubuntu and doing stuff... [19:50] this problem did not exist in intrepid [19:50] phase_shift314 i would try disabling system sounds then rebooting and re-enabling.... [19:50] Assid: you got a live CD? [19:50] yeah [19:51] but thats kinda stupid [19:51] martin_henry: i'll keep cutting the file down and eventually it will play lol [19:51] Assid: what makes you say that? [19:51] phase_shift314 ok good luck [19:51] i really should be able ot change the keyboard [19:51] martin_henry: alright i'll try that [19:51] hi all. I am trying to debug the problem of a dns name not being resolved from my local machine [running 8.10]. Is /etc/avahi/services should be blank by defailt?

(xubuntu ibex) [19:52] i dont see why ubuntu shouldnt [19:52] Assid: well, about the live CD I meant :: using _it_ to change the keyboard (the reboot back into the real installation) [19:52] dfr|work, avahi is not related to names resolution, for that you check your /etc/resolv.conf [19:52] Assid: windows let's you change keyboard layout on the login screen? [19:52] jonaskoelker: yes.. [19:52] martin_henry: no i mean i've tried that, i'll cut the file down then eventually once it gets to a certain length it will play, but i want the whole 20 seconds, i'm picky [19:52] Assid: isn't it only to those that are enabled/installed/$WORD? [19:52] or system prefs keybord lol [19:52] ive seen it.. it has a EN right next to hte login screen [19:52] anyone know what the osx expose effect is called in the settings manager? [19:52] joaopinto, really? my resolv.conf should work fine [it lists the nameserver] [19:52] jonaskoelker: not if you enable it as a keyboard/system wide [19:53] <__Adam__> Hello, dont laugh..... I am missing /dev and umm yeah wont boot :) [19:53] odinsbane: the only thing I found was (WW) VESA(0): Option "Tiling" is not used [19:53] you can change your keybord layout there [19:53] dfr|work, so just try: nslookup name [19:53] joaopinto, if avahi is not related to name resolution, why does it have dns-related settings in its config? =/ [19:53] assid that is not for changing the keyboard [19:53] the eng you see is for setting the system language not keyboard layout [19:53] irmandos_mobile: it does actually.. when you change the language.. you do end up with the characters of the "chosen" language [19:53] dfr|work, because avahi may rely on dns, which does not mean dns relies on it ? [19:53] what are the difference to cable yellow ethernet o cable red? [19:54] martin_henry: i was just wondering if there was some widely known problem with skype eating cpyu [19:54] cpu* [19:54] davide87, try #networking [19:54] tank you [19:54] epalm, skype is working fine for me [19:54] join /#ubuntu-fi [19:54] assid: creat your own GDM for ubuntu and then u can add that to your GDM 2 [19:54] martin_henry: just to let you know the sound i'm trying to play for my startup will play when i mouse over for a preview and will play in xine and other players [19:55] irmandos_mobile: like i know how.. [19:55] heheh [19:55] #ubuntu-fi [19:55] joaopinto: well it actually does work fine, but when i leave it idle, eventually i'll check and it's chewing up the cycles [19:55] santtu: /join #ubuntu-fi [19:55] <__Adam__> Hello, dont laugh..... I am missing /dev and umm yeah wont boot :) [19:55] irmandos_mobile: you could also just encourage assid to file a feature request [19:55] epalm, ah ok, didn't noticed that behavior myself [19:55] just google Ubuntu GDM how to and download som GDM's and look at their code its basix xml [19:55] __Adam__: /dev doesn't get created until boot occurs. What error are you getting on boot?

I liked the old one better but don't remember which one it was, could someone still running Intrepid check that for me? === Jiyu_ is now known as JiYu [20:00] gogeta: yes but in my case the estimate is coming almost right. [20:00] funkiwan: I have got the same problem [20:00] Hi.. I blacklisted a module named ath5k, and then i removed it from the blacklist again, but it's like it's still blacklisted? how do i unblacklist it for good? [20:00] Hi, can I just use the old network-manager or wireless driver?? this Jaunty one keeps disconnecting my wireless! [20:00] gogeta: which is not the right estimate for sure.

[20:01] kk_jonty that will get more time from the battery [20:02] hi, how can i change some jpeg files' size from oorjinal to 150 x 150 [20:02] how can i see how many users are connected to a screen session?

I installet Jaunty yesterday and was thinking about something with the new "notification thing" that pops up. Whenever there are images involved (like profile pictures in pidgin or cover art from Rhythmbox) they look real crappy, like a resized 15x15 or something. Am I the only one experiencing this? [20:40] Andria: But what I do on the net is not a secret, and I use web-based email so.... I don't know what value the information has.... I do not care if everyone knows what I do on the net, none of it is a secret in my opinion. But I fail to see how they could get any proffit from havesting information from me. If it is to let folks send spam to me, well, that happens to people every day when they go to web sites that do, in fact, harvest info from us all. [20:41] rebel_: that is best for long term. you dont really have to remove em from resolv.conf since it is a volitale file. what that means is that it will be overwritten every time you establish connection just reboot or disconnect in ubuntu then reconnect and your new resolv.conf should say like nameserver 192.168.0.1 or whatever. === dynamite is now known as patrick-- [20:41] Andria: but I would like to see what that web site says.

[21:07] anyone who had a problem with sound and he solved it????? === brion is now known as pocketprotector === yacc__ is now known as yacc [21:07] rythmbox recognizes music cd's shows no tracks and of course will not play ideas [21:07] mbeierl: nothing lol just posted that link and said hehe [21:07] YeTr2: i love linux i really do, its my main system, but not being able to recognise a card. its a turn off [21:07] AndroidData, cd /path/to/dir && zip file [21:08] firstimeubunter: the card recognization that you loved from mandriva, while it is most likely awesome, it shouldn't be needed. [21:08] xangua: but no sweet desktop cube :/ [21:08] how to add this repository http://svn.inspircd.org/index.py/ ? [21:08] t0sh13, theres almost 1700 users here, imagine if they all said "lol" and "hehe" :) [21:08] jum.............................. [21:08] I have an ubuntu desktop with two network cards, one integrated and one via PCI. Is it possible to setup the PCI so I could plug my laptop into it and have it get a dhcp address assigned by the router as if it were plugged directly in (aka, not using a patch cable, as I only have normal cat5 cables lying around) [21:08] that type of autodetection script is a pain to maintain with updates, patches, and fixes. [21:09] firstimeubunter: ^ [21:09] YeTr2: well at least i change my resolution without any hassle [21:10] firstimeubunter: was the link useful? [21:10] ckw, you would need iptables to do forwarding, but I don't think it can pass dhcp through [21:10] you could just assign it [21:10] firstimeubunter: hassle is placed on the few people who maintain the script to go out and understand and detect every possible device that the system can handle. it is worthless in the long run as people are hoping to move more towards a windows-like plug'n'play type thing. [21:10] eseven73: yea that would be a stress test on floodbot lol [21:10] heath|work: assign it? [21:10] #ubuntu-sv [21:10] heath|work: woo it works! that was pretty simple, heh. thanks! [21:10] set the ip manually [21:10] ckw: I'd just run a dhcpd (and something iptables-based for forwarding) on the system with multiple nicks [21:10] ActionParsnip: i think it will, i will change my xconf, if that dont work again, i will run mandriva and copy her xconf then use it here on jaunty [21:10] AndroidData, np [21:11] ckw: this is not that hard, but I don't know the most convenient way to do it on ubuntu [21:11] ActionParsnip: thank you for the link [21:11] * AndroidData scribbles down a note, "don't underestimate the power of &&" and promptly vanishes to bed [21:11] switching to irc client and closing opera bbl [21:11] I am not wanting to statically set the ip settings, as this laptop is used all over with wifi [21:11] ckw: (it'll allow you to hook up a hub to one of the cards, then hook up any number of systems to that hub, and they'll all have net access) [21:11] firstimeubunter: np bro [21:11] firstimeubunter: be careful when copying the xorg.conf files, there are sometimes some hard-coded paths in the files and it can break your system. [21:11] And the ubuntu machine is not going to manage the dhcp [21:11] ckw, if you don't need access to other network resources set ubuntu up as a router [21:11] does this http://66.160.144.212:8080/ work for anybody ? [21:12] * mzz seconds "set up as a router" [21:12] rebel_, nope [21:12] rebel_1: he connection was refused when attempting to contact 66.160.144.212:8080. [21:12] another issue i have been having: i've not been able to play video's or mp3's through totem, it shuts down instantly. i can play mp3 with rythmbox, but not video files [21:12] YeTr2: i can be on a 800x600, so if it doesnt work...i will not run jaunty [21:12] cant* [21:12] hi guys! i saw that ubuntu 9.04 includes flash player by default... but unfortunatelly i'm still unable to see flash sites like youtube... how can i fix that problem? [21:12] open port 8080 [21:12] rebel_1: not here it doesn't [21:12] flash as default? [21:12] antonio_: 32bit or 64bit linux? [21:13] so why here "Firefox can't establish a connection to the server at 66.160.144.212:8080." [21:13] rebel_1: make sure the system you are forwarding to is on static ip [21:13] On windows I have been connected to hte internet via wifi on my laptop and used the network java cable to supply internet to another machine [21:13] how to add this repository http://svn.inspircd.org/index.py/ ? [21:13] that is essentially what I am wanting [21:13] what do you mean ActionParsnip ? [21:13] rebel_, router blocking 8080 probably [21:13] *network jack + cable [21:13] YeTr2, 64bit === Z3ro3X_ is now known as Z3ro3X [21:13] rebel_1: do you use a router? [21:13] yes [21:13] ckw, it's called Internet Connection Sharing [21:13] it acts as a router [21:13] anyone know where I can find this wallpaper? > http://trac.guake-terminal.org/screenshots/3 [21:13] rebel_1: have you configured virtual server / port forwarding? [21:13] Alright, I did not know that === muellisoft is now known as Muelli [21:14] I figured it was assigned via the main router [21:14] i have a nVidia Corporation NV18 [GeForce4 MX 440 AGP 8x] card on my system (output from lspci).. how can i install new drivers for this card? [21:14] ActionParsnip: nope [21:14] rebel_1: thats why [21:14] Any pointers to setting that up? [21:14] antonio_: ubuntu does not yet include adobe's beta 64bit flash in the repos. it's considered unstable. at least as far as I have been able to tell. [21:14] ActionParsnip: how to add this repository http://svn.inspircd.org/index.py/ ? [21:14] ckw, windows sets the nick to 192.168.0.1 and issues a dhcp ip to the connected machine [21:14] usually a small applet pops up giving me the option of installing a proprietary driver for it, but it doesn't here [21:14] hi. Following the advice i got here i added the cool new notifications in ubuntu 9.94 by adding "indicator applet" to the panel. So, it works. Mostly. But whenever someone sends me a message on pidgin, for example, it does not go there. And my feeling is many other things dont. How can i enable programs to appear on it? More specifically, pidgin? [21:14] same as setting up Ubuntu as a router [21:14] ActionParsnip: so how to do that ? [21:14] i give up [21:14] YeTr2, do i have any other fòash software similar to flash? [21:15] antonio_: if you want to use the 32bit plugin on your 64bit system, you should just be able to install flashplugin-nonfree via aptitude [21:15] YeTr2, or i cant see flash pages? [21:15] what can I do if I get "too many errors" when using dpkg --configure -a? [21:15] rebel_1: your router is dropping the connection as you havent told it to allow the data and to give it to an ip address, you need to set it to static so it never changes [21:15] How would I make sure ubuntu does not start assigning IPs to other machines on hte network? [21:15] zamba, what about System > Administration > Hardware ? Does that work? [21:15] YeTr2, so the only way is install the 32bit one? [21:15] and only to machines plugged into that port [21:15] I've got an old AMD Athlon 64 with 1GB of PC3200 RAM, I'm eventually going to be setting it up to host a forum. I can "upgrade" it to 1.5GB of RAM, but it'd be PC2100 RAM... I'm not sure how big of a DB I'd be getting.. but I only expect 10-50 people on at any given point in time. Whats the best option here, less but faster RAM, or more but slower RAM?(If I get anywhere near the 50 I'd be buying hosting services rather than using my own..) [21:15] hardware drivers* [21:15] eseven73: it just says "No proprietary drivers are in use on this system" [21:15] rebel_1: you need to read your routers manual or hunt around, it varys wildly from router to router [21:15] newUser, lol that reminds me of "Error" and "Error displayng error" [21:15] antonio_: if you do not mind using beta, you can download and install the 64bit one manually [21:16] Bob_Dole, not worth worrying about [21:16] antonio_: there is Gnash [21:16] okok i install the 32 :D thanks [21:16] the free flash [21:16] xangua, is it good? [21:16] ActionParsnip: ok, but what exactly I'm looking for here ? virtual server configuration ? [21:16] zamba, ah, most times that will start the hardware app [21:16] the specs are fine [21:16] eseven73: what do you mean? [21:16] racecar56: something like that xD [21:17] the one you were talking about zamba [21:17] antonio_: Gnash, while is foss, it's support is limited to.. flash 7 [21:17] eseven73: in the image for this machine i installed nvidia-93 manually [21:17] nop, just for some sites like youtube antonio_ , it can't play 'vimeo' for example [21:17] eseven73: then i removed it now [21:17] rebel_1: yes, in your routers setup pages [21:17] eseven73: before the last reboot [21:17] 93? thats a bit new for your card [21:17] eseven73: maybe that's what's causing this problem? [21:17] eseven73: -96 i mean [21:17] antonio_: 64bit version of the plugin is available at http://download.macromedia.com/pub/labs/flashplayer10/libflashplayer-10.0.22.87.linux-x86_64.so.tar.gz [21:17] eseven73: i should be using -71 instead? [21:17] is there a fix planned for the fact that compiz + playing = shit? [21:17] thanks xangua :) and YeTr2 ... i'll install the 32bit one :D [21:17] you need the legacy one older than 96, maybe try the 7* series [21:18] antonio_, you will need ia32_lib to run the other version [21:18] eseven73: i'll try manually installing it [21:18] should install by default though [21:18] 71 or 73 zamba I think [21:18] ok ActionParsnip I'm on that page, it shows me an empty list with options to Add New [21:18] eseven73: no 73, so i have to go for 71 [21:18] heath|work, it will not install automatically because is a dipendence? [21:18] choose that ? [21:18] oh I use 73 :) [21:18] antonio_: just know that there are also a few instability issues with running the 32bit plugin on a 64bit system as well :D [21:18] for nvidia 5200 [21:19] YeTr2, if i have no others chances :D [21:19] is there a way to play video maximized in ubuntu 9.04 with compiz without it freezing the computer? [21:19] hello, would you guys say that seeding a torrent is the same thing as putting up torrents on such sites? [21:19] nvidia5200? you should be able to use the 96.xx drivers [21:19] argentumLingua, what kind of video? [21:19] argentumLingua: worked for me. I've seen others report it but it doesn't seem to affect all drivers [21:19] zamba, I think 96 or whatnot is for the newer ones [21:19] rebel_1: well you need to add a rule for port 8080 for TCP protocol to forward to the ip address of your sever on the same port [21:19] heath|work: any video. .wmv, .mpg, .avi etc. [21:19] YeTr2, can you repeat me the name of the package? [21:19] Any word on fglrx working in Jaunty? [21:19] eseven73: then maybe a restart? [21:19] AT least with the X1950 series [21:19] zamba, try 71 then restart [21:20] tsopp: the word isn't going to change [21:20] tsopp: you no longer want fglrx for cards that are supported by the radeon driver [21:20] ah, heh [21:20] * mzz lets crdlb handle that one :) [21:20] I want to install Ubuntu and OS X on my macbook. which one do I install first? [21:20] crdlb, what word [21:20] ubuntu [21:20] you can run mac os x from within ubuntu i think [21:20] G2009: install rEFIt 1st [21:20] hello guys [21:20] Hay :) I have just updated from Intrapid to 9.04 but now when I maximize a window the titleline disappear ! what is this ? [21:21] tsopp: fglrx no longer supports R500; it's not a bug, it's their decision [21:21] G2009: install linux last so grub is autoconfigued [21:21] Ah I see, well thats a pity. [21:21] installing 9.04 on a sony vaio. wireless is not working :( i can see it in lspci [21:21] i have Avermedia TVtuner card with Radio, Internext Compression Inc iTVC16 [21:21] ActionParsnip: ok done everything except entering the IP address... what IP address I should use ? my pc LAN IP adress ? [21:21] gpled, lspcu -vv ? [21:21] gpled, lspci -vv ? [21:21] G2009: install OSX then rEFIt then Ubuntu [21:22] rebel_1: yes, the ip address of the pc to forward to [21:22] i want to use Radio only in ubuntu 9.04 is it possible ?? [21:22] thegnuworld: thanks [21:22] rebel_1: and use the same port number [21:22] gpled, what about lshw [21:22] G2009: your welcome [21:22] is Ubuntu on OS X well supported? [21:22] G2009: ? [21:22] G2009: they are two different OS's [21:22] any hints on getting gsynaptics working? there is much confusion on how to do it correctly [21:22] I mean on macbook [21:22] rebel_1: make that pc have a static ip (not dhcp) or it may get a different IP address one day and sever the link [21:23] G2009: works well on most models [21:23] G2009: its runs on the mac, not mac osx [21:23] G2009, sound currently doesn't work on the new macbookpro aluminums [21:23] heath|home: i can see it just fine [21:23] G2009: Ubuntu and OpenSolaris will work great out of the box on most macbooks [21:23] rdz: I have the old (maybe first generation) white macbook [21:23] gpled, what is the model? [21:23] student: I'm sorry, what do you mean by 'Radio' ? [21:23] G2009, i think, those are wwell supported [21:24] YeTr2: i mean FM [21:24] student: oh, I should learn to read further back in my log files. You should check for compatibility for your video card [21:24] how to add this repository http://svn.inspircd.org/index.py/ ? [21:24] G2009, but best is to try yourself, it doesn't take much. download ubuntu and burn a cd and test from cd, whithout having to install anything [21:24] student: .. sorry, I missed coffee today [21:24] how do i make all auto mounts allow users (non-root) to have rw access? [21:24] YeTr2: what :( [21:25] Hay :) I have just updated from Intrapid to 9.04 but now when I maximize a window the titleline disappear ! what is this ? [21:25] racecar56: just set the right file permissions [21:25] student: you need to check compatibility for your tuner card to see if the FM part is supported in linux. [21:25] rdz: that's exactly what I am going to do. waiting for the backup to finish [21:25] Selveste1, sounds like compiz might be crashing [21:25] YeTr2: i am using Avermedia [21:25] heath|home: intel 3945abg [21:25] theuser1_: Just go to the Synaptic Package manager and click on repositories [21:25] ikonia, =_= mkdir says permission denied for example [21:25] student: usb or pci adapter? [21:25] YeTr2:how do i check [21:25] gpled, can you pastie the entire lspci -vv ? [21:25] YeTr2: PCI [21:25] racecar56: yes, set the write permissions [21:25] heath|home: also says its using model lw13945 [21:25] heath|work: Im running without window effects [21:26] racecar56: the "right" permissions sorry [21:26] theuser1_: Administration > Software Sources [21:26] heath|home: k, take a second. its on a diff computer [21:26] ActionParsnip: ok, I guess I've done everything correct, but still can't go to http://66.160.144.212:8080/ [21:26] Selveste1, then hold alt and click and drag the window [21:26] YeTr2: lspci | grep Multimed [21:26] showing me card [21:26] !flash [21:26] To install Flash see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/Flash (a recent version for !Dapper is available in !backports) - See also !Restricted and !Gnash [21:26] found it, part of fedora 11 [21:27] ActionParsnip: should I reboot the router or something ? [21:27] Does anyone know if there's a problem with the upgrade manager to go from 8.10 to 9.04? I've finished fetching all the files but I'm stuck at the "getting new packages" stage.. no activity is showing up anywhere. [21:27] YeTr2: i just installed application from Add/Remove "FM Radio Tuner" [21:27] Tamale: it can take a while - keep with it [21:27] YeTr2: but no help :( [21:27] heath|work: Yes - but when i maximize its gone again [21:27] Tamale: Servers may be busy. [21:27] ikonia: You mean the downloading or the transition to the next step once the downloads are finished? [21:27] Tamale: both [21:27] Any ProFPTD users here? How can I allow wordpress to access /var/www/wordpress/wp-contents/plugins or any directory for that matter, I cant even access /home (Starting to pull my hair out) [21:27] YeTr2: you there buddyyy [21:28] eseven73: well.. i've now rebooted [21:28] system - administration - hardware drivers tells me the same [21:28] ikonia: How long would you consider 'long enough' to wait? It downloaded all the packages in 5 minutes, but I've been waiting for it to go to the next step for 20 now [21:28] eseven73: but i have the new option in the menu called nvidia settings [21:28] heath|work: http://pastebin.com/m5c0c148c [21:28] Selveste1, I think you may actually be restoring and not maximizing. Try dragging it away and resizing it to something smaller [21:28] eseven73: but that tells me that the nvidia driver isn't in use [21:29] rebel_1: you may have to [21:29] zamba, ya your problem is very common, I did a google search for your card and theres like 20 million hits LOL [21:29] eseven73: and that i need to install nvidia-xconfig to activate the driver [21:29] i have Avermedia TVtuner card with Radio, Internext Compression Inc iTVC16 [21:29] i want to use Radio only in ubuntu 9.04 is it possible ?? [21:29] Tamale: it's quite specific - open another terminal and do "ps -ef" and see if you can see what's currently going on [21:29] i want to use FM Radio only in ubuntu 9.04 is it possible ?? [21:29] student: if your card is supported, sure [21:29] eseven73: funny thing is, when i install nvidia-xconfig then nvidia-glx-71 is removed [21:29] gpled, I need the same thing but with sudo lspci -vv sorry [21:29] ikonia: how to check ? [21:29] heath|work: I have tryed that but when i click the maximize symbol in the titleline its gone [21:29] rebel_1: if it doesnt work, you will need to re-evaluate the settings [21:29] !hcl > student [21:29] student, please see my private message [21:29] heath|home: k [21:29] Can anyone tell me what on earth a redirect looking like ">|" will do in a shell script? [21:29] eseven73: so the card basically don't work in ubuntu? [21:30] ikonia: Nothing.. load is less than .2 [21:30] heath|work: And its on ALL windows [21:30] The Bash man page doesn't mention it, but it seems to do something special or the other. [21:30] What must I do to get sshd running? [21:30] ikonia: No network traffic either [21:30] Selveste1, but the title is still there, just the buttons are gone? [21:30] zamba, im sure it just needs the correct drivers, you'll have to google though since it's a complex issue [21:30] heath|work: yes it still there I think, just out of the screen [21:31] ikonia: i think not supported :( [21:31] eseven73: another question.. i'm not given the option of upgrading to jaunty on this system [21:31] heath|home: http://pastebin.com/m33287821 [21:31] eseven73: it's currently running intrepid [21:31] ikonia, UUID= /media/foo auto user,exec,rw 0 0 [21:31] eseven73: when i do 'do-release-upgrade' it tells me that no new release found [21:31] Tamale: is there still the "update manager" process running [21:31] Tamale, I just upgraded to 9.04 and it fried the gnome-terminal [21:31] racecar56: what about it ? [21:31] zamba, ok in synaptic you might have Upgrade to LTS only [21:31] What must I do to get sshd running? [21:31] ikonia, does it look wrong? [21:31] you might not want to complete the upgrade -- [21:32] BorkisDrizzt: install openssh-server package [21:32] BorkisDrizzt, server or client? [21:32] ikonia: No, but the window is stil up [21:32] racecar56: put the permissons on the file system [21:32] since nobody has offered any advice, I think I'm going to re-install from scratch [21:32] Tamale: that doesnt sound good [21:32] BorkisDrizzt: /etc/init.d/ssh start [21:32] ikonia, idk how... [21:32] Selveste1, alt+F2 then gconf-editor let me know when you are there [21:32] racecar56: check out "chown" and "chmod" [21:32] user___: so it is that [21:32] I just installed F4L but I don't know how to open because I can't find it in my menu. When I try typing in f4l in Terminal I see the splash screen for the program for a second then it closes and I get the error "Segmentation fault". [21:32] ikonia: Scratch that, it had a longer name [21:32] zamba, in synaptic preferences under the "Upgrade" tab you'll see what I meant [21:33] Im there [21:33] "Updates"* [21:33] ikonia: /usr/share/applications/update-manager.desktop /tmp/tmpSMSHuB/jaunty [21:33] my friend keeps telling me to do /etc/init.d/sshd start and since I don't find that file I assumed something was wrong -_- [21:33] heath|work: Im in gconf-editor now [21:33] eseven73: it's set to normal === croppa_ is now known as croppa [21:33] still same problem ActionParsnip [21:33] Tamale: check in /tmp/tmpSMSHuB/jaunty [21:33] Tamale: see how it's getting on [21:33] BorkisDrizzt, well if the openssh-server isn't install you can't start it :) [21:33] can it be a problem from my ISP ? [21:33] heath|work: get that paste? [21:34] zamba, at the bottom of that tab, set it to Normal Releases [21:34] eseven73: it's already set to that :) [21:34] gpled, I missed it [21:34] Ok, what the hell. I copied my running config from /boot and recompiled my kernel based off of it, just adding Xeon support, and now the kernel image is 54 megs. [21:34] ikonia, dosent help [21:34] heath|work: http://pastebin.com/m33287821 [21:34] I have both the client and server package installed, can that mess things up? Because now I am getting a "Could not load host key" error [21:34] ikonia: Is this jaunty,tar.gz supposed to be big? [21:34] hi lads, do you know if there is a solution for video freezing in jaunty? [21:34] ikonia: because it's only 900k and it's not growing [21:34] eseven73: maybe i need to remove the added repositories? [21:34] ikonia, i give up... i'd rather use root to do stuff than go through this [21:35] eseven73: i've added repositories for openoffice 3.0 and medibuntu and stuff [21:35] Hey I need help with reinstalling ubuntu [21:35] zamba, that might work actually [21:35] I have ubuntu jaunty and my gnome desktop looks old. (I have the old icons and the windows have that blue background behind the title.) Sometimes the new "skin" gets loaded until reboot. Afterwards it has disappeared again. How can I fix this? [21:35] make a backup though [21:35] In the partitions list for the drive [21:35] it lists none [21:35] Tamale: I wouldn't worry about that [21:35] eseven73: and i'm also going through an apt-proxy [21:35] eseven73: will that also cause this? [21:35] and when I try to just install, it says I need to select a partition [21:35] possibly yeah [21:35] how fix "there was an error creating child process" on newly-upgraded jaunty? [21:35] ikonia: Should I just cancel and try again?

[22:06] hi, I tried to re-install libmilter to get back the libmilter.so.1 with the following .debs : libmilter1.0.1_8.14.3-6_i386.deb, libmilter1.0.1-dbg_8.14.3-6_i386.deb and libmilter-dev_8.14.3-6_i386.deb. but none of these got libmilter.so.1 generated, can anyone point me where to get libmilter.so.1 via which package ? thanks [22:06] jimboe1337: well I tried to fix it with a package called ms-sys, but now when I try and boot ubuntu/windows I just get a blinking cursor, I can't even get to GRUB [22:06] summelsam: feel free to ask for your money back and try another distro... [22:06] hi. new ubuntu 9.04, and wg111v1 usb adapter. in the moment it tries to load the p54usb module, it utilizes the cpu to 100%, and modprobe never returns (I see it in the process list taking 100% cpu). in the messages I se it tries to load isl3890usb, while on http://wireless.kernel.org/en/users/Drivers/p54/devices I see it should be ISL3886. How can I instruct the driver to load the right firmware? [22:06] Gabrys: wifi, graphics and touchpad broken,,, worked fine last year,,,, [22:06] hey, i have one game in a .bin and .cue file, how i can extract this ? [22:07] losher: ok, i want my money back ;) [22:07] ienorand: no no....on restart all normal [22:07] !w32codecs > wall-e_ [22:07] kubuntu is worse,,, [22:07] jimboe1337: Here's the tutorial I used to try and do that with ms-sys: http://www.arsgeek.com/2008/01/15/how-to-fix-your-windows-mbr-with-an-ubuntu-livecd/ [22:07] hey, i have one game in a .bin and .cue file, how i can extract this ? [22:07] sunnybg: you can blacklist the wrong module and add the right module to the automatically loaded modules [22:07] is there a fix for the intel drivers? [22:07] anyone beside myself get broken app,lcation that use php after all the php updated this week? [22:08] maco: no such luck, it's a fully reformatted Lenovo x61 with no recovery partition and they put that in the "extras" there. [22:08] event: that is a form of an iso... cue being a descriptor file and bin the actual image... dunno exactly how to mount those in ubuntu though.... [22:08] event: on archlinux theres a tool called cue2iso ,,, [22:08] kravlin1: no no, not recovery partition [22:08] Gabrys, the module is the right one: p54usb. The problem is that it loads a wrong firmware [22:08] hi guys .. anyone knows if its possible to replace nautilus with thunar on the ubuntu netboo remix (i know the chances of getting a reply is slim :-) ) [22:08] kravlin1: in the BIOS itsef [22:08] summelsam: the truth is, other distros have other regressions. There is pretty much no new features without regressions, Like I said, entire industries.... [22:08] why cant i get more then 640xxxx resolution ? [22:08] maco: it's not there. [22:08] kravlin1: when you hit F1 and it lets you set the boot order and all that stuff. [22:08] summelsam: wifi working better for me, Intel graphics screwed up (but already worked around), everything else at least as good as before (for me) [22:08] losher: well everything works fine on arch,,, and arch is more new then ubuntu ;) [22:08] kravlin1: boo thats silly. ok maybe run the battery all the way down and then charge it all the way back up? [22:08] using nvidia driver [22:08] Gabrys: whats the intel fix/workaround? [22:08] ienorand i think that greasemonkey scripts uses lot of memory.. [22:08] maco: doesn't work either. [22:09] what is the tool that detects graphics cards? [22:09] summelsam: you're ranting... [22:09] how do i detect the crt specs ? [22:09] lulzSauce: ahh. so you're using windows master boot record. i'm no expert, but maybe GRUB would be more friendly with a dual boot? windows MBR doesn't love ubuntu very much. [22:09] guntbert: let me have my fun ;P [22:09] sunnybg: sorry then, I guess it can be module specific, generally the firmware is located at /lib/firmware you can try to move the wrong one out of there, just a guess [22:10] are these NSA bots chating ? [22:10] jimboe1337: So what should I do? I'd just like to be able to boot both windows 7 and ubuntu 9.04 again! [22:10] summelsam: install a bunch of packages and run compiz by: SKIP_CHECKS=yes compiz if you have one certain Intel card (run normally for the rest) [22:10] summelsam: I'm sure your're correct and that arch has absolutely no bugs in it whatsoever. And everything in it is brand new. Makes you wonder why every other distro in the world doesn't do it that way, doesn't it? [22:10] summelsam: as much as you want - but please not here - crowded as it is :-)) [22:10] summelsam: looking for likng [22:10] summelsam: looking for ling [22:10] why cant i get more then 640xxxx resolution ?

It's very annoying when I'm trying to swtich between two windows, say to copy something, and every time I click on one it comes to the front and covers the window I'm trying to copy from. The only way around it seems to just put the two windows beside each other, but I just want to turn off the "automatic window to front on single-click" option [22:16] if there is one [22:16] neweeepc: just delete it perhaps?

[22:17] all videos that i play on youtube they are extremy choopy [22:18] *extremly [22:18] BSuntu: years ago (5+?) when XFree86 was still around it was called XF86Config [22:18] jimboe1337: I was trying to add windows 7 to my grub list manually when I messed up the mrg [22:18] narcoclepsy: that's weird.

[22:22] serafeim, look at you /etc/network/interfaces file [22:22] lulzSauce: looks like you'll have to do it manually. you should check which partition grub is looking at when it tries finding windows. [22:22] loud-loud, Yeah, it sounds like you'kll have to resort to the CLI [22:22] serafeim, remove the line lo, and replace all with eth0 [22:22] Buster, sound like you problem is smae as mine [22:22] did you fix it??

I connect the phone to usb port but nothing happens and when I run lsusb it just hangs. Btw in 8.10 everything is ok [23:08] @vadim: Isn't there a package for that? [23:08] jaunty is a pain in the butt [23:08] now I can't boot into windows 7 at all [23:08] ditto :) [23:08] jZed: actually, typing just `plugins` in firefox will take you to the firefox addons page at the plugins sections [23:09] !offtopic [23:09] #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics. Thanks! [23:09] Gadu1: yup i see it now [23:09] is there a way to get GRUB to automatically add the windows partition to the list??? It didn't when installing ubuntu [23:10] I have some media that says it needs Windows Media Audio 8 decoder [23:10] Windows Media Video 9 decoder .... [23:10] any help on gnome file-dialogs killing apps? tried reinstall nautilus, gtk, gnome-panel, no luck [23:10] lulzSauce you could try grub update however if it didnt in the first place it may not have detected it for some reason [23:10] Burke: well i don't need to access phone memory, just microSD card that mounts well automatically on ubuntu livecd 8.10. But here it gives an error - can't enumerate USB device [23:10] can i export "ubuntu-bug" to a file? [23:10] Gadu1: ok, i dont know how to progress, could you be more specific? [23:11] lulzSauce https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto [23:11] supersasho: it lists several plugins "Adobe Flash Player" for example is what you'll need to use youtube. Download that, close firefox, install it, reopen firefox [23:11] Vadim: And you are sure the card works fine, etc... I had a similar problem before, I just need to remember what I did to fix it. [23:11] jeez. the acx100 driver is really screwed. I can't let the machine run for a minute without it seeing crashing. [23:11] kosharl: I've tried that page, my GRUB error(23) isn't on that pg [23:11] i've problem with internet connection.. it's working very slowly [23:12] when booting into windows 7 I get grub error 34: Error parsing number [23:12] I'm using [23:12] the karmic repos seem to not include a different version in linux-restricted-modules... :-( Any hints for me on how to run a acx100 card? [23:12] kosharl :http://www.pastie.org/460314 [23:12] Burke: yes it works ok with phone and windows XP and ubuntu 8.10 livecd but not here. If you could help that would be great [23:12] anyone know how to fetch video memory size? [23:12] kosharl: and http://www.pastie.org/460315 [23:12] lulzSauce: i had that with bad media i think [23:12] cptblood: What do you mean/ [23:12] Gadu1: dxdiag? [23:13] hmm, no... it was when i installed.. sry [23:13] Gadu1: but the problem is, i did downloaded it, but that didn't help.. hours ago, i watched some videos and there was no problem.. it just happend after reboot [23:13] HELP I just closed VirtualBox after 8 houers compilation and now VirtualBox is GONE ........ the package is not on my PC ?!?!?!?! [23:13] oh... hehe [23:13] cherva: use 'find' [23:13] I'm getting that error when booting into Windows 7 with the above menu.lst [23:13] sry Gadu1, thought i was in windows chan [23:14] cherva: 8 hours to install Virtualbox? what? [23:14] medibuntu or automatix? [23:14] hou5ton: if you have to use one, definitely medibuntu [23:14] lulzSauce do you know actually where your win is? [23:14] sebsebseb: 8 hours to compile static QT inside a virtual windows [23:14] hou5ton: i dont think automatix exists anymore... probabl for the better.. use medibuntu [23:14] hou5ton: automatix is not supported and certainly not recommended. [23:14] cherva: what's static QT? [23:14] cherva: which distro was that? [23:14] LjL: thanks ... need Windows Media Audio 8 decoder and Windows Media Video 9 decoder [23:14] supersasho: ah sorry, the default download isn't correct. there should be a link to alternate version so you can get a deb [23:15] cherva: and Virtualbox itself should still be there [23:15] hou5ton: medibuntu [23:15] kosharl: /dev/sda2 [23:15] * DIL a little bit of knowledge is....... [23:15] is there a zenity like command like tool to trigger the new notifcation stuff in jaunty? [23:15] how to fix "Ctrl Alt backspace" problem in jaunty? [23:15] kosharl: It's in the fdisk -l output I already gave you [23:15] supersasho: technically the download you got works but you'd have to install it via command line, otherwise just download the deb version [23:15] hou5ton: not followed most of your convo, but Windows Media Player 10 and 11 can work pretty well in Wine, but yeah native Linux palyers are better :) [23:16] admin_masu3701: not a problem [23:16] vlc == best media player evar!! [23:16] admin_masu3701: what's the problem? [23:16] Burke: so? [23:16] Gadu1: on the adobe site is even a .deb for ubuntu 8.04+ but when i install it, it says you have allready a newer version installed [23:16] admin_masu3701: it was actasuly xorg people that decided to remove it, their is a way to add it back, but not sure the link [23:16] admin_masu3701: http://chrisjohnston.org/2009/re-enable-ctrl-alt-backspace-904 [23:16] lulzSauce odd that fdisk -l isnt seeing the partition? [23:16] sebsebseb: ok ... doing medibuntu now === madmax is now known as Guest57950 [23:16] sebsebseb: static QT is when you compile an app and the exe doesn't require the qt dlls, yesterday a friend of mine told me that skype disapeard..... I didn't belived her and after reinstall of skype everything is ok ...... but Skype is one thing .... VirtualBox is another.............. [23:17] admin_masu3701: follow those instructions, and when you restart, contrl alt backspace will work again [23:17] thanks IndyGunFreak [23:17] kosharl: It's in there [23:17] cherva: ok well whatever you done, sounds weird [23:17] cruzton: perhaps this? http://packages.ubuntu.com/jaunty/libnotify-bin [23:17] kosharl: Whoops. Windows is in /dev/sda3 [23:17] Gadu1: i've checked it in synaptic and the versions are the same, so no update is possible over .deb from adobe site or apt-get [23:17] kosharl: Yeah, I know. for some reaons sda2 and sda4 aren't there [23:18] sacarlson: the virtualbox package is not installed on my machine ........ the logs do not show a deleting .......... [23:18] cherva: ok open it via commandline [23:18] cherva: which virtualbox did you install? the closed source one with usb suppourt from their site, or synaptic's ose edition? [23:18] how do i change permissions of /var/www dir so i can read/write to it? it is owned by root..but i cant seem to change it [23:18] I'm using Jaunty, and my indicator applet does not appear on the panel, or function at all. Any ideas how I can get it working? [23:18] lulzSauce your grun says sd** grub cant read sd and has to use the devices file as an interpreter, whats your devices file say? [23:18] cherva: on the subject of synaptic it should be there if you serach and have the green installed icon [23:19] lulzSauce grub sorry [23:19] player1up: ok common issue [23:19] sebsebseb: the package is GONE man.... VirtualBox gives me "The program 'VirtualBox' is currently not installed." [23:19] supersasho: type adding medibuntu repository and installing ubuntu-restricted-extras and w32codecs? [23:19] cherva: ok, but your vm's may still be there [23:19] kosharl: Where does it say that, and where can I find my devices file [23:19] LjL: bingo, thanks! [23:19] having trouble getting gl working right, any suggestions? [23:19] lulzSauce: in boot/grub dir [23:19] player1up: commandline way chmod or whatever, graphical way pretty easy [23:19] cruzton: besides, won't zenity itself work? [23:20] sebsebseb: there are only 2 virtual HDDs left.......... [23:20] cherva: look at the hidden folders in home, you still got .virtualbox? [23:20] cruzton: it should, from all i can tell (though i have neither jaunty nor gnome) [23:20] kosharl: [23:20] I have a problem to install xampp, I have an already xampp install on ubuntu 8.10 and now I have upgrade(clear install) to 9.04 and when I try to start xampp, mysql can't start..When I try phpmyadmin I get this error message "#2002 - The server is not responding (or the local MySQL server's socket is not correctly configured) " can anyone help me?? [23:20] lulzSauce: and while i see your win in the menu1st file as sda* its not in the fdisk -l you posted [23:20] player1up: gksudo nautilus and right click and go to properties and change the permissions for that folder that should do it [23:20] !permissions [23:20] An explanation of what file permissions are and how they can be manipulated can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FilePermissions [23:20] sebsebseb: yes I have it but there are only 2 virtual hdds ................ I had 6 [23:21] cherva: ok sounds like an odd issue, maybe your better asking in #vbox [23:21] I'm using Jaunty, and my indicator applet does not appear on the panel, or function at all. Any ideas how I can get it working? [23:21] lulzSauce: the file is called devices.map [23:21] LjL: i was hopin it would, but zenith --notification diplays an old stylenotification (another icon in the tray) [23:21] Intersting USB device issue conflict, Windows and Linux advice needed, thanks [23:21] Where are the release notes for Jaunty? I don't see them on http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/releasenotes [23:21] sebsebseb: I thing there is a bug in 9.04 ........ [23:21] Guest10821: we can't help, unless you tell us the actsaul issue [23:21] kosharl: [23:21] (hd0) /dev/sda [23:21] (hd1) /dev/sdb [23:22] cruzton: strange... it should just use libnotify [23:22] (hd2) /dev/sdd [23:22] lulzSauce: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. [23:22] also, my windows is in the fdisk output [23:22] cruzton: i think it might be worth reporting that as a bug...? [23:22] cherva: yeah so do I :) :D ,because their are bugs always in big software === rullie_ is now known as rullie [23:22] "/dev/sda3 10968 18697 62091225 7 HPFS/NTFS" [23:22] LjL: yeah, but it predates libnotify... funny, ldd shows that it does link to libnotify, but that might be indirectly via gnome libraries [23:22] LjL: bug? i dunno, its probably a feature that he zenity guys havent got around to implementing [23:22] That's it. It's the same number of bytes as my windows partition, and it is NTFS. It has got to be it. [23:23] cruzton: well, the zenity *package* depends on libnotify, so i would imagine there is a reason for that [23:23] lulzSauce ahh yes i see not i thaaught you said it was **2 before, [23:23] cherva: which virtualbox did you get? [23:23] kosharl: Ooops, sorry, it is sda3 [23:23] cruzton: well, my understanding of the new notification system is that everything that used the old notifications should transparently use the new ones [23:23] sebsebseb: closed source [23:23] but I am using (sd0,2) [23:23] cherva: right and the one that said it was made for Intrepid Ibex? [23:23] lulzSauce ok so you really just need to edit your menu.1st file to point to the deviced.list interpreted location of sd3 [23:24] LjL: it seems ok to me, but its annoying when someone sends you an IM in pidgin, and the whole freakin IM comes up in the notification area. [23:24] sebsebseb: yes [23:24] LjL: yeah, but i can confirm that zenity --notification --text 'hi' shows me an old style tray icon, rather than the new style [23:24] so (hd0,2)? That's what I'm already using though [23:24] cherva: ok well that could be the issue [23:24] cruzton: zenity --notification is just intended for a different purpose; there's nothing 'old-style' about a notification icon [23:24] IndyGunFreak: that's not really what we were talking about though [23:24] whats the easiest way to setup a mailserver? i've seen a few howtoforge tutorials but i dont want postfix/imap/tls/ssl/courier/pop3 its all confusing, i just want my email server to be easy to setup, maybe a webgui for configuring sort of like phpmyadmin? i have apache/php5/mysql setup, just need a quick and easy mail server now, any help? [23:24] LjL: and rhythmbox and notify-send are successfully doin the new style stuff [23:24] LjL: ah, i guess i came through it halfway.. [23:24] cruzton: i don't doubt it - i only say it feels like a bug in my opinion [23:25] sebsebseb: how can that be the issue a program can't stop working and then delete some of its files [23:25] crdlb: is there some other switch i can use for the new notifications? [23:25] cruzton: perhaps not an upstream bug in zenity, but a launchpad-able bug for ubuntu [23:25] cherva: that program wasn't made for 9.04 that's what I am getting at [23:25] cruzton: no, use notify-send [23:25] cherva: Virtualbox has always been behind when it came to new Ubuntu releases [23:25] crdlb: yeah, all the same to me [23:25] cherva: without checking the site, I am assuming they haven't made a proper version that is for 9.04 [23:25] sebsebseb, thx! [23:25] hello. i just upgraded to jaunty, and for some reason, the new kernel is loading modules that are blacklisted in modprobe.d/blacklist. so... how can i disable kernel modules in jaunty? [23:26] sebsebseb: and what about my friends skype ? it disapeard too [23:26] lulzSauce no your using sd, "root (sd0,2)" from http://pastie.org/460315 line 20 [23:26] cherva: same thing for Skype, last time I looked, it said for Ubuntu 8.04. normalley this type of thing woudn't cause an issue, but I guess maybe it has in your case [23:26] kosharl: ok, let me try out (hd0,2) [23:26] crdlb: so uhm, i *was* under the impresison that the policy in jaunty was "show no separate tray icons ever" [23:26] lulzSauce change that line to the device that is in your devices.map [23:26] Gadu1: no change :( === mike is now known as Guest18865 [23:27] kosharl: But it says hd0 is /dev/sda. I gave you the lines of the devices.map above === Guest18865 is now known as mykevelli [23:27] cherva: either that or both your Ubuntu installs messed up a little bit, when doing the upgrade, I assume it was an upgrade for both of you, and not a clean install? [23:27] sebsebseb: yes [23:27] LjL: well, I guess zenity --notification isn't all that useful, but that doesn't mean it should be changed to do something completely different [23:27] cherva: well I know that the 64bit Skype works pretty well on 8.10 [23:28] cherva: and I know Virtualbox will on 8.10 as well [23:28] lulzSauce so physically you device is sda but grub only understands hd* so it checks the devices.list file to see what sd is, [23:28] kosharl: Here is my devices.map http://www.pastie.org/460353 [23:28] crdlb: my point though is that i thought (i might be entirely wrong, mind!) that the new notification daemon was supposed to transparently take over notifications that would be displayed as icon+balloon previously [23:28] Gadu1: could it be a firefox problem, cause in Opera the youtube is fine [23:28] cherva: you could try the virtualbox ose version from Ubuntu's repo, but that lacks usb suppourt for example [23:29] LjL: zenity --notification shows only a tray icon, no popup [23:29] crdlb: ah [23:29] sebsebseb: I don't care about that I need to recover my virtual hdds [23:29] crdlb: and that's a supported way to notify stuff in libnotify...? [23:30] i can't boot into ubuntu at all. my internet connection died halfway through the upgrade to 9.04, and when i login I get to the login screen but the windows are all grey after i auth [23:30] cherva: why? and I woudn't rely on virtual machines to much for actsaul data, because I have had a few issues in the past with both Virtualbox and VMware and the vm's [23:30] lulzSauce (hd0) /dev/sda so change your grub menu.1st line tfrom root (sd0,2) to say hd0 [23:30] LjL: it's completely unrelated to libnotify, it just makes a GtkStatusIcon [23:31] any way to reset xorg config stuff or find out what my error is? [23:31] cherva: also learn to backup your vm's, in fact it's so easy, you just copy the vhd file [23:31] tehboriz: I'd do a CTRL+ALT+F1 and then a apt-get update && apt-get upgrade in a root shell. [23:31] crdlb: ok, that clears it up. i have no idea why zenity depends on libnotify though, that was the main source of my confusion i guess [23:31] cherva: then if one vm goes bad, oh well, because you got your backup [23:31] sebsebseb: I don't want to compile that thing another 8 houers thats why ....... I can't backup I don't have that big HDD [23:31] Can anyone assist me? My eth 0 wired connection is not functioning, and has not since jaunty install [23:31] Muelli, will it connect to the wireless network? [23:31] yes it will [23:32] tehboriz: probably not :( Do you have an encrypted WLAN? [23:32] kosharl: let me try that [23:32] gostone is it loading the correct module? what card is it? [23:32] helo [23:32] Hi I'm having a problem with cdrom permissions on ubuntu 8.10 can't burn an iso? [23:32] thats my first hour with ubuntu [23:32] using K3b [23:32] i have found a virus for thunderbird on ubuntu 9.04 using calmtk, but it seems very difficult to eliminate, and it destroyes my e-amil. [23:32] Muelli, yeah but it autoconnects on boot [23:32] wait [23:32] cherva: well tough shit you may have to, and I have tried to help, but seems not getting much luck with that, I would suggest asking people in #vbox when it comes to your issue [23:32] supersasho: try setting firefox as your default webbrowser and install the deb http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/otherversions/ again [23:32] anyone got any good examples on blinging out ubuntu on an older laptop? [23:33] someone do speak germany_russia_ukraine_ [23:33] ??? [23:33] !de [23:33] In den meisten ubuntu-Kanälen wird nur Englisch gesprochen. Für deutschsprachige Hilfe besuchen Sie bitte #ubuntu-de, #kubuntu-de, #edubuntu-de oder #ubuntu-at. Geben Sie einfach /join #ubuntu-de ein! Danke für Ihr Verständnis. [23:33] kosharl: Now I get BOOTMRG is missing. Press Ctrl+Alt+Del to restart [23:33] tehboriz: well. I'd just go and check wether you have connectivity in your login shell (CTRL+ALT+F1) [23:33] not sure if correct module is loading, i am running on an asus laptop ethernet port [23:33] !ru [23:33] Пожалуйста посетите #ubuntu-ru для получения помощи на русском языке / Pozhalujsta posetite #ubuntu-ru dlya polucheniya pomoshi na russkom yazyke [23:33] ho can i eliminateit form terminal? /home/stevr1it/.mozilla-thunderbird/x2xbsxfr.default/Mail/mail.tin-1.it/Junk Phishing.Heuristics.Email.SSL-Spoof [23:33] lawbreaker13: see above [23:33] so, I just installed kubuntu.... and it's quite pretty.... is the KDE look completely different from the gnome look, should I DL and run regular ubuntu as well to compare? are there functional differences too? [23:34] Tac: they are differnet desktop environments [23:34] gostone: you can check with dmesg for kernel messages. There might be something interesting. Loaded modules can be checked with "lsmod". You might want to cehck if the driver for your card shows up there [23:34] Tac: purely your choice [23:34] Tac: ,but you can run KDE apps in Gnome, just as you can run GNome apps in KDE [23:34] Tac: also KDE3 the previous version of KDE is available for 9.04 [23:34] Tac: I would suggest getting that as well === blow is now known as samantha-b [23:34] * freehood4all loves Amarok 1.4 on my gnome desktop [23:34] I know they are different.... I just have run fedora my whole life.... usually on gnome or XFCE [23:34] Tac: and whilst your at it, trying out these things, getting Xubuntu is a good idea as well === Blizzerand__ is now known as Blizzerand [23:34] ***freehood4all tick [23:35] sebsebseb, did you see my other post, sorry didn't put your nick in..... [23:35] Tac: they are all Ubuntu, just with different desktop envirionments that's all [23:35] sebsebseb why would you want 4 desktops? [23:35] * sreenath got his microphone to work. Yay! [23:35] koshar1: ,because you can :) and they are all good [23:35] koshar1: it's not Windows, where your stuck with the one from Microsoft, or some stuff that isn't very good [23:35] sebsebseb, I am a linux user already... just wondered if there were function differences.... are there widgets like in kubuntu, in ubuntu? or is that just a KDE thing... ( I know I don't have those in Fedora ) [23:36] Tac: Kubuntu is KDE [23:36] Tac: Ubuntu is based on Gnome and Xubuntu is XFCE [23:36] sebsebseb iam aware of that however each wm will install its own matapackage and with 4 you wouldnt know what proggie was in what package. [23:36] sebsebseb, I completely understand that [23:36] koshar1: so?? [23:36] could it be my interfaces network modules? When i look at /eth/network i get the following, auto l0 and next line iface l0 inet loopback [23:37] koshar1: in fact look [23:37] medibuntu worked .... all hail medibuntu [23:37] !puregnome | koshar1 [23:37] koshar1: If you want to remove all !KDE packages, type « sudo apt-get remove kdelibs4c2 ; sudo apt-get remove kdelibs5 ; sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop » [23:37] sebsebseb well you get cluttered menus to say the least, and e plethoura of apps your unlikely to use, and 4 times as many updates. [23:37] kosharl: now I get "BOOTMRG missing" [23:37] sebsebseb, I have a web dev company with half a dozen employees... currently we run fedora on all machines in the office... I am a big fedora fan, but with the short lifespan, I am contemplating a switch in the office [23:37] koshar1: so freaking what? it's Linux, all those apps hardly take up any hard disk space [23:38] lulzSauce thats a windows error at least, you may need to edit the boot.ini in windows, [23:38] koshar1: Linux is about choice :) [23:38] sebsebseb, and centos is the most responsible option, but I still want something a little bit fun ;-) [23:38] koshar1: loads of apps to choose from that do the same thing [23:38] kosharl: But I can't boot into windows [23:38] koshar1: this is not Windows, where you get the standard stuff, with most of that being rubbish [23:38] is it seriously impossible to find video memory size in ubuntu for this eeepc intel graphics? [23:38] . [23:38] koshar1: and people tend to only run one or two apps for a computer task [23:38] sebsebseb iam not disputing that i just think its more practical to choose in live environments and decide before going productive [23:39] hey, how do i scan for bluetooth devices? [23:39] Gadu1: ff is set as a default browser and the reinstall of flash plugin didnt helped [23:39] like my cell phone [23:39] Gadu1: System -> Administration -> System Monitor, System tab [23:39] koshar1: live environments? well you can try the other desktop enviroinents in a virtual machine :) asusming your computer has enough RAM [23:39] koshar1: then you can run two or more of those at the same time also :) [23:39] sebsebseb even better suggestion [23:39] Is 8.10 ha LTS ? [23:39] xrand: no 8.04 is LTS [23:39] 8.10 is lts. [23:39] oops. [23:39] Burke9077: no it's not [23:39] no its not [23:39] 8.04 is [23:39] 8.04 is LTS [23:39] !LTS [23:39] LTS means Long Term Support. LTS versions of Ubuntu will be supported for 3 years on the desktop, and 5 years on the server. [23:39] my bad. [23:40] koshar1: my virtaul machine suggestion? [23:40] i see, how long can I trust updates for 8.10 ? [23:40] so how do i check my eth 0 interface, as it is not working. not working since jaunty install> [23:40] <[ifroog]> Hello, Has any one here experiance sudden freezes on jaunty? [23:40] sebsebseb yes, [23:40] I don't to install 9.04 currently [23:40] <[ifroog]> Hello, Has any one here experiance sudden freezes on jaunty? <-- so far? no [23:40] My sound isn't working. I followed the Comprehensive Sound Solutions Guide and the HDA Intel Guide but they didn't help. I am using an HP Pavilion dv7-1023cl with HDA Intel ICH9. I am not getting any sound. Before I switched from ALSA to OSS and disabled PulseAudio by running a startup application to kill it in an attempt to fix the sound, I was only getting system beeps, and PulseAudio detected the sound but it wouldn't play. [23:40] koshar1: yeah I used to get some noobs, trying out KDE3 in a 8.04 vm as well :) since it wasn't available in the 8.10 repo, however now KDE3 is also available for 9.04 :) [23:40] any1? [23:40] Why would you be on 8.10 when 9.04 is available? [23:40] xrand: 18 months [23:40] sreenath: system tab has no information on video memory [23:40] xrand: They'll stick around for another cycle or so. [23:40] <[ifroog]> I cant make anything out of it from the logs, They dont show nothing at the moment of freeze. [23:41] germans here ? [23:41] xrand: that's fine :) [23:41] <[ifroog]> zhurai, Are you on ext4? [23:41] Why would you be on 8.10 when 9.04 is available? <-- same reason as why people choose to be on the LTS's and older versions [23:41] My sound isn't working. I followed the Comprehensive Sound Solutions Guide and the HDA Intel Guide but they didn't help. I am using an HP Pavilion dv7-1023cl with HDA Intel ICH9. I am not getting any sound. Before I switched from ALSA to OSS and disabled PulseAudio by running a startup application to kill it in an attempt to fix the sound, I was only getting system beeps, and PulseAudio detected the sound but it wouldn't play [23:41] . (By the way, I am using 9.04) [23:41] sebsebseb and dont forget to suggest fux, IMHO it walks all over xfce [23:41] <[ifroog]> zhurai, Are you on ext4? <-- yes [23:41] moon.malloc.us [23:41] zhurai: fair enough [23:41] sebsebseb, bobertdos , supersasho thx folks [23:41] <[ifroog]> zheng, How could I find out whats causing it? [23:42] xrand: ignore these guys telling you to upgrade, and that was coming from someone that has used Ubuntu since second release in 2005, which also means I know that Ubuntu is about what is suppourted and not what is new Burke9077 and 8.10 gets another years of suppourt. and by what I seen of 9.04 it isn't really properly worth the upgrade for many people === Yossi_ is now known as Yossi [23:42] sebsebseb: it worth in my opinion [23:42] well as to geting eth o working i was hoping not to have to reinstall [23:42] boshhead: fux? do you mean Fluxbox? [23:42] xrand: Yeah, it's not necessary. I only do it because I'm obsessive :D [23:43] Ag0x: well it depends on the user and their computer [23:43] Ag0x iam updating our machines from 8.04 but i wprolly wouldnt have bothered if i was already 8.10 [23:43] sure [23:43] sebsebseb: I see, as long as I can get the updates, I gonna wait for 9.10 :) [23:43] can anyone help me with not working Youtube on Firefox since today.. before that it was functional [23:43] koshar1: well you have to upgrade to 8.10 first [23:43] koshar1: you can't directly upgrade 8.04 to 9.04 [23:44] interesting dual monitor issue ... have Jaunty on a laptop with an external monitor to my left. However, if I configure the external monitor to be on my left, it becomes the Main monitor, and doesn't allow me to make it the extension??? [23:44] supersasho: "Before" as in Ibex? === Guest10821 is now known as AdamCFYC [23:44] sebsebseb iam backing up home and my var/www dirs and then reinstallijgn with a dummy personal metapackage and apt-cacher [23:44] bobertdos: nope :) i'm still 8.10 [23:44] русский [23:44] koshar1: hum and Ext4 maybe :d as the file system for 9.04 ? [23:44] русский [23:44] supersasho: Okay, so then please define "before." [23:45] I used mdadm to assemble my raid drive (mdadm --assemble --scan) and it created /dev/md0 but I can't mount it, it asks for a file type and my offerings are apparently wrong. is there a way I can figure out what filetype it is so i can mount it correctly? [23:45] supersasho: I don't see any reason your firefox shouldn't be working right now. I recommend purging firefox and deleting any leftover hidden mozilla stuff in your home folder. then reinstall firefox and add the flash deb while firefox isn't open [23:45] sebsebseb no ext4 for me as i use partimage for my snapshots [23:45] bobertdos: a few hours ago.. before i restarted the computer [23:45] Uh [23:45] koshar1: partimage that sounds like a Windows app? [23:45] Where did the screen resolution setting go? [23:45] supersasho: also, backup your bookmarks O_O [23:45] Gadu1: and passwords! [23:45] Oh, never mind [23:45] Under display [23:45] hi everybody! how to upgrade a bios on my laptop?? [23:45] sebsebseb its on the gparted live cisk === qwerty is now known as Guest95066 [23:46] supersasho: that too ^_^ [23:46] !partimage [23:46] Sorry, I don't know anything about partimage [23:46] progre55: thats not really an ubuntu issue. [23:46] !info partimage [23:46] partimage (source: partimage): backup partitions into a compressed image file. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.6.7-2ubuntu1 (jaunty), package size 275 kB, installed size 964 kB [23:46] www.partimage.org [23:46] Gadu1: i'll try that probably, cause i dont see a reason for it not working.. thanks anyway :) [23:46] Bonsoire :) [23:46] Ag0x: ok [23:46] IndyGunFreak, well, could you at least give me a hint? :) [23:46] if its a software you usually do !info not ! [23:46] Ag0x: thanks [23:46] well my eth 0 not functioning is an ubuntu issue! [23:46] progre55: its different for all laptops, pc's, etc.. you're going to have to search it out. === Splappy_ is now known as Splappy [23:46] sebsebseb: np [23:47] IndyGunFreak, oh, I see, thanks man [23:47] bobertdos: the wierd thing is that on opera it does work [23:47] i have a wireless network usb adapter, how come blue toothdoesnt recognize this as a device? [23:47] <[ifroog]> ANy one? [23:47] eseven73 thanks, if it were part of the ubuntu live disk i wouldnt have to use gpated live disk [23:47] grkblood13: what is the usb device? [23:47] I always use the gparted cd koshar1 :D [23:47] I donno why [23:47] why u use partimage? [23:48] i prefer partedmagic [23:48] its a belkin wireless network adapter i used for the internet [23:48] Ag0x: its easy and fast [23:48] supersasho: Find the path of the plugin that Opera is using for flash. That's the key. [23:48] you realize there's a partition editor WITHIN the ubuntu livecd, right >_> [23:48] [ifroog]: what? [23:48] but i want to also use it for bluetooth capacblities [23:48] grkblood13: there's a lot of belkin wireless adapters... model? [23:49] koshar1: only because its easy and fast? [23:49] model #: F5D9050 [23:49] how do I get ubuntu to start at runlevel 2 (no X)? [23:49] Ag0x: and because its effective, [23:49] Any advice on my wired connection not functioning? [23:50] dori: I suggest to remove gdm from /etc/rc*.d in order to make it not start. [23:50] grkblood13: doesn't look like it works... https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HardwareSupportComponentsWirelessNetworkCardsBelkin#USB [23:50] supersasho: Type in opera:plugins and I think it will show you. If not, opera:config has an option somewhere to expose the paths. [23:50] gostone you didnt answer the qs i posted about your scenario [23:50] Hello, I am getting "BOOTMRG not found" on booting windows 7 after installing ubuntu. I've tried adding windows 7 manually to grub but it isn't working. Windows 7 is on /dev/sda3, and I'm using (hd0,2) [23:50] IndyGunFreak, well it works fo the internet [23:50] gostone: as anybody already pointed out: Plese tell us if the module was loaded correctly. [23:50] muellisoft: that doesn't seem like the best way, there has to be a way to configure it to start at rl 2 [23:50] koshar1 which question? [23:50] grkblood13: wel, then you made it further than them. [23:51] here's my menu.lst file: [23:51] http://pastie.org/460372 [23:51] ok well i need asistance on checking modules, sorry [23:51] bobertdos: could this be the one? /usr/lib/flashplugin-nonfree/libflashplayer.so [23:51] dori: maybe there is kernel parameter you can pass. But I don't know. [23:51] lulzSauce thats not a windows error, your bootstrap is attempting to boot windows, you havnt moves the win drive have you, ie swapped a hdd cable or altered bios ? [23:51] supersasho: most likely [23:52] In most Linux versions you can add the lines "JAVA_HOME=..." and "export JAVA_HOME" to your .bash_profile file. [23:52] they took out inittab, there must be a replacement, anyone know? [23:52] how does one do this? [23:52] gostone what module did it use and what chipset is your ethernet [23:52] gostone: you also want to prefix your IRC messages with the names of the people you're talking to. They loose track otherwise. [23:52] anyone here with eee 4g ? [23:52] IndyGunFreak, weird... i didnt do anything extra [23:52] Heh, you know the best thing to do with security? [23:52] Disable the display manager on startup [23:52] kosharl: Yes, I've actually moved(to the left) and expanded the windows partition [23:52] kosharl: I did this with gparted [23:52] gostone: in order to see what modules are loaded, issue "lsmod" from your favourite terminal... Also check "dmesg" for any suspicious message. Feel free to pastebin both at, e.g., dpaste.com [23:52] !pastebin | gostone [23:52] gostone: 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) [23:52] muellisoft koshar1 just looking for how to check modules [23:53] lulzSauce well your windows oot.ini or whatever they use these days will be pointing to the wrong partition [23:53] gostone lsmod [23:53] bobertdos: but when i look on the about:plugins in firefox i see that the same is used and enabled as in opera:plugins [23:53] lulzSauce boot.ini sorry [23:53] bobertdos: and javascript is running fine on another sites, so that shouldnt be the issue also.. [23:54] kosharl: How do I fix i [23:54] *it [23:54] supersasho: What's the version number? [23:54] bobertdos: maybe i just use the workaround and watch youtube videos on opera :) [23:54] bobertdos: 10.0 r22 [23:55] lulzSauce: i dont know i vary rarely use windows, try asking in #windows meanwhile your grub is now correct, its passing the boot sequence to the win partition and the win partition is now botching it up [23:55] supersasho: Clear all of your browsing history and restart firefox. [23:56] i dont have a .bash_profile is this something i can just create? [23:56] <[ifroog]> kirbsah, I think its .bashrc [23:57] muelisoft and koshar1 here is the output http://paste.ubuntu.com/159687/ [23:57] thanks [23:57] kirbsah: yes [23:57] kirbsah: In Ubuntu, you can also use /etc/profile or I believe you can also use .profile in your home directory. [23:57] Hey does anyone have an idea as to why I am having trouble with flash. A lot of youtube vids play the sound but are really laggy [23:57] the controls barely work [23:57] I have installed everything I can think of [23:58] Thurusiaz: what all did you insatll? flash works fine here. [23:58] Thurusiaz: Are you using Firefox and what version of flash? [23:59] kirbsah, Yes, you can create your own .bash_profile [23:59] I am using ff, where do I check the flash version [23:59] it should be up to date [23:59] click the blue icon in the bottom right of the ff window [23:59] Thurusiaz: You are on Jaunty and installed from the repos, yes? [23:59] gostone can you post lspci as well?
