[00:24] then install first linux-sound-base then alsa-base by just dclicking on files. [00:24] CradLeRcker: you can check process of apps in system administration system monitor [00:24] i'm thinking about formatting my hd and putting on windows, then ubuntu... [00:24] darthphunk: then you can copy stuff back over if that works and figure it out. [00:25] I remember the CD came in a SAMS REDHAT LINUX unleashed [00:25] tofu: its much more advanced/well built than back then [00:25] lukavia: then install first linux-sound-base then alsa-base by just dclicking on files. [00:25] thanks for the info daftykins.. I'll keep asking here as people come and go to see if anyone has any mopre info [00:25] Anyone else have video corruption issues with 9.04?

[00:26] bobstro: gotcha [00:26] anyone got xorg-driver-fglrx to work with an ATI Radeon 2400 HD ? [00:26] dcomxx: are they on the same subnet? can you ping them? [00:26] CradLeRcker: check if synaptic or update-manager is running already [00:26] I am using ubuntu 8.04 .. how do i check if my IP is set through DHCP ? [00:26] i use ssh for that [00:26] Does anybody use Samba? If so, what configuration utility do you use? System-config-samba? GAdmin? SWAT?

[00:27] bobstro - I'm familiar with manually editing the smb.conf. I'm just trying out different utilities to see what's out there. [00:27] jason_: haven't used samba for a while, and for what I would use it for. I am fine with nautilus [00:27] Elite - what will that do? i already reset my IP address.. i want to configure firestarter and it asks me this? [00:27] anyone got xorg-driver-fglrx to work with any ati card? [00:27] Lysi, no none of them are working [00:27] and yes i can ping the ip from the other ubuntu [00:27] err runnning [00:28] probably in 5 more years MS will be DEAD because of Ubuntu Linux on netbooks [00:28] sebsebseb - what do you mean search through nautilus? Do you share files with windows?? [00:28] jason_: i had some grief with swat, but for a basic set up, it worked. mind you, that was a couple of years ago... [00:28] jason_: yep [00:28] !offtopic | tofu [00:28] tofu: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics. Thanks! [00:28] sebsebseb - How so? Just shared folders? [00:28] jason_: external hard disk connected to a computer running XP [00:28] tofu: yes, i remember people saying that 10 years ago. :) [00:28] ssh just cant resolve the hostname and i dont know why [00:28] jason_: last time I did Samba [00:28] dcomxx: how about by IP? can you ping the other one? [00:28] jason_, i get my stuff from my windows file server via CIFS /etc/fstab mounts [00:28] i have a question.is there a tool to find and fix system problems that might be originated by a badly installed software or stuff like that in ubuntu?kinda like Tune Up Utilities on winxp [00:28] jason_: yep shared folders [00:29] CradLeRcker: but the error says that another process is running [00:29] hey how can i install gaim on jaunty? [00:29] bobstro - I just tried out GAdmin tools and it looks real slick, but for some reason XP computers can't find my samba computers hostname... Otherwise Id love GAdmin. [00:29] !samba | jason_ [00:29] jason_: Samba is the way to cooperate with Windows environments. Links with more info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently and https://help.ubuntu.com/9.04/serverguide/C/windows-networking.html - Samba can be administered via the web with SWAT. [00:29] luis_ Pidgin is already installed. [00:29] Pidgin is the new name of GAIM [00:29] neskat: Installed via the repos? The restricted drivers? [00:29] gaim is old [00:29] luis_: gaim? it's changed name to Pidgin since very long. [00:29] I cant figure out why Tuxracer worked on my Dell Mini 9 netbook when it doesnt even have a 3D graphics card [00:29] bobstro: yes i can ping the other ip [00:29] hmmm thats strange [00:29] jason_: are they part of the domain? can you locate it by IP? (\\x.x.x.x)? [00:29] jason_: thanks [00:29] LjL: thanks [00:29] dcomxx: are they in DNS or other name service? [00:29] tofu: ,because it usese opengl and not Directx [00:29] tofu: I guess that's why [00:30] bobstro - I cant ping by hostname, I know that... and no, this is just a workgroup a thome here. [00:30] tofu: most netbooks use that intel video chipset that can do 'ok' 3d :) at least for some games. [00:30] tofu most small laptops have pretty 3D capable onboard intel graphics [00:30] luis_: gaim is no pidgin, install via Synaptic package manager, but acutally is already in application -> internet [00:30] Hi guys I have something thats probably pretty simple for you guys to figure out. Im making a CD of Tar files containing a folder of a package app and all dependencies.I used a live session and synaptic package managers' "generate package download script" so i know I have all files.But for packages that i have manually downloaded Im not sure if I have all the dependencies in the folder. I tried installing with dpkg -i --dry-run *.deb, it [00:30] Lysi, i dunno what process it is... [00:30] bobstro - I was using a gui utility known in the repos as system-config-samba, a much simpler samba gui configuration tool. That worked out nicely, however once I tried out GAdmin, I wasn't able to get hit by the hostname from XP computers. So clearly something between system-config-samba to GAdmin cuased this. [00:30] hm ? i use roaming mode on both systems [00:31] CradLeRcker: ok, I'd reboot [00:31] MarkJones: Have you ever considered using aptoncd? [00:31] I have just disabled my 2nd monitor after an upgrade of my system to 9.10? i think, as it was screwed up and I've lost my panels and icons on that screen. I have no idea what to do to gain access to my other monitor as the mouse still stops at the edge of the screen. [00:31] luis_: correct: gaim is now pidgin [00:31] Lysi, after reboot wat do u recommend i do [00:31] jason_: sorry... workgroup stuff tends to give me headaches. if one machine is up most of the time, make it the browse master. that's about all i remember. [00:31] I put a PCI dial up modem in my linux server (run ubuntu hardy) and it was detected in the lspci command, how do I use the modem to dial the internet and share it? [00:32]  CradLeRcker: try again to install those packages [00:32] can you try download the driver file from the ALSA site, and try to send it to me ? [00:32] bobstro - I've never once had an issue with samba in workgroups. I had everything working fine. It's just once I switched to GAdmin it messed everything up and now Samba doesn't work, however, I really like GAdmin's GUI. [00:32] anyone got xorg-driver-fglrx to work with any ati card? [00:32] Yes I have tried it and its great but the synaptic download scripts are fantastic at actually down,loading them.Plus I just made an "install.sh" shell script so i can share a package CD with someone offline and they dont have to know anything about the command line.Its realy cool. [00:32] jason_: i'd just comb through the smb.conf file to see what changed. then you could try to figure out how/why the new tool broke it. [00:33] Does anyone know what the program 'Dolphin' is? [00:33] Mike_lifeguard: It's a window manager for KDE [00:33] it's the KDE file manager Mike_lifeguard [00:33] bobstro - I dont know, becuase the smb.conf shows netbios name listed, so to me it appears to be fine. I just dont know why it doesn't work, and GAdmin tools isnt popular on ubuntuforums, despite my favoring of it. [00:33] Mike_lifeguard: apt-cache search dolphin [00:33] * Mike_lifeguard looks for someone to blame for installing it :D [00:34] Mike_lifeguard: its a file manager for kde [00:34] bobstro: can I pm you? [00:34] Actually yeah you know what thats not a bad idea, ill just install the manually downloaded app on the live session let it tell me what else is needed then just have it make the iso and then extract teh packages from the ISO.Briliant.

[00:38] I put a PCI dial up modem in my linux server (run ubuntu hardy) and it was detected in the lspci command, how do I use the modem to dial the internet and share it? [00:38] dcomxx, that's because there's nothing to tell the other system the IP. if you know the IP's won't change you can edit /etc/hosts to enter them statically to avoid using IP all the time [00:39] bobstro - the netbios name of the smb.conf IIISSS what your "computer name" should be on the Ubuntu machine, right? [00:39] Yashkes: I belive OS-X can handle ext2/3 (not sure, my mac is a nice doorstop) [00:39] bobstro: The rename didn't work either. Gotta format and reinstall.

[00:41] jtholmes: thanks. [00:41] anyone got xorg-driver-fglrx to work with any ati card? [00:41] What kind of crap is that? Why would the kernel tell me I have no permission to read the files if anyone (with root access on the mouting machine) could change the permissions? [00:41] Yashkes: if its a non linux native filesystem line vfat, or ntfs.. you MUST mount it with the proper optuions to all ow users to read/write to it. [00:41] my camera doens't work on ubuntu Why ? im trying to livestream? Please help [00:41] Yashkes: if its ntfs - you use the ntfs-3g filesystem. [00:42] It's not NTFS, it's UFS.

Is there some way I can turn this off? It's way too sensitive. [00:45] Yashkes: You're absolutely sure your partition is in UFS? That's really unlikely unless you're using OSX Server and specifically chose it [00:45] i have an intel 945GM vega card and its not working with ubuntu 9.04 and i cant get it to work how do i get to work [00:45] I attempted to use a wireless logitech USB mouse, after inserting the USB stick, neither pointing device worked, I rebooted with only the logitech wired USB mouse, it did not work either. I have rebooted several times, I can only see USB hubs when doing lsusb. I don't know how to fix things. [00:45] later folks [00:45] what were vi commands to enter save and exit ? :S [00:45] Lysi, im not familiar with what you want me to do there [00:45] if you have X on these systems hit alt+f2 then type "gksudo gedit /etc/hosts" dcomxx [00:45] CradLeRcker: start alsamixer in a terminal and unmute Master+PCM [00:46] xcode: There are many variants of "its not working".

[00:47] histo: I don't think mine is synaptic though [00:47] intel [00:47] xcode: Don't bother. On the Intel 945 it's a fool's errand [00:47] i dont understand how do i get to work [00:47] ? [00:47] Hello, I'm making a new desktop and would like to have multiple monitors. Any advice when selecting a graphics card? [00:47] * get it [00:48] mn: ? [00:48] sgallagh: not true, they worked in intrepid [00:48] IT's UFS+. [00:48] Lysi, when i open gstreamer they are set to pulse yet when i press the test it doesnt work [00:48] solexious|netbk: other then stick with nvidia? Not really. :) check the forums... perhaps.. dont go with the 'latest one' [00:48] xcode: ughhh. the intel drivers have some issues right now. Perhaps someone else may be able to help more than i can. [00:48] neskat: "worked" and "performed tolerably" are different things [00:48] sgallagh: I think the issues in jaunty are a bug that will be fixed soon enough so the effects will work again [00:48] histo: Nm, but I need the directions for Xubuntu please sir [00:48] ok [00:48] sgallagh: not realy, mine worked without any problems what-so-ever [00:48] histo: nvm found it. ty for link [00:48] thanks [00:49] neskat: have you tried rebooting the whole computer? You may need to drop down to recovery mode and either fix x or at least get into a console runlevel so you can purge the drivers. [00:49] CradLeRcker: ok, then set everything to alsa [00:49] neskat: The problem is on intel's end. Their driver falsely reports supporting features that it chokes on, so compiz fails. [00:49] dr_willis, so nvidia over ati? Had a feeling that was the case... [00:49] How can I troubleshoot USB from the start, to 1 make sure that linux sees a USB device, before any type or drivers come into play. [00:49] bobslaede: i restarted the machine, X died, so I started in recovery mode and removed the drivers and now I'm back up and running mins fglrx. [00:49] Maybe USB just died on the workstation at a coincidental time. [00:49] neskat: Intrepid had a workaround that the latest version of the intel driver broke. [00:49] what repo do I need to add to upgrade intrepid to netbook remix on my asus 1000? [00:50] Lysi, it still doesnt work [00:50] solexious|netbk: ati has sort of.. been a big issue lately.. it comes and goes.. personally i dont plan on buying ati again for a few more years [00:50] sgallagh: Yes, I expect that will be fixed before to long and things like compiz will work again [00:50] solexious|netbk: if ever... [00:50] hi, which package contains the "gstreamer lame plugin"? [00:50] CradLeRcker: open gnome-volume-control (speaker symbol) with double click and unmute everything there [00:50] neskat: alright, so it sounds like you'll need to play the waiting game for now, eh? [00:51] bobslaede: well, maybe but someone was here earlier saying it worked for them. [00:51] Is anyone else in here using an LVM filesystem and how did they get it to mount properly at boot in Jaunty? [00:51] sexcopter, "apt-cache search gstream lame" returns a few packages, notably "gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly-multiverse" but i may be off the mark [00:51] will old Hardy NON-SYSTEM debs work in jaunty? [00:51] hi all [00:51] Lysi, ya their all unmuted [00:51] (as in the games and apps) [00:51] dr_willis, yes, im going to have to bash my ati card on my laptop to get it fully working on 9.04. Well thanks thats very helpfull [00:52] Lysi, just adding that i have hda-intel sound [00:52] solexious|netbk: last laptop i got i made sure it had nvidia.. :) [00:52] saiki: non-system deb isn't really well-defined, but no, you have no guarantee that they will work. What exactly are you trying to do? [00:52] cann me say any peoples to programming the at button [00:52] daftykins: interesting, i don't get that package in the search result, but i do see that package. i'll try it [00:52] anyone got xorg-driver-fglrx to work with any ati card? [00:52] i'm running jaunty 64 sexcopter [00:52] sry for my bad english [00:52] solexious|netbk: Have you tried to use the radeon driver instead? It's not nearly as high-performance, but the 2D and video playback works fine. [00:53] jrib, I'm refering to things like singularity and scatterbrauten (a 1st person shooter) [00:53] Okay, got svideo out working, but the display goes offscreen. IS there a way to fix that? [00:53] i want to try virtualization, i'm on ubuntu 9.04, what do you guys advice? [00:53] CradLeRcker: from the link 'sound troubleshooting' you've checked that all modules are installed? [00:53] !virtualizers | tuga3d [00:53] tuga3d: There are several solutions for running other operating systems (or their programs) inside Ubuntu, while using the native CPU as much as possible: !QEmu (with !KQemu), !VirtualBox, !VMWare, as well as !WINE and !Cedega for Windows applications [00:54] sgallagh, will give it ago [00:54] saiki: sauerbraten?

[01:08] mshooshtari, to reset USB ^ [01:08] histo: I could've sworn on an earlier release of Ubuntu xmms was in the menu ;( [01:08] daftykins: not just shut down, but pull power plug after as well? [01:08] rantic, xmms2 is very different [01:08] rantic: i'm not sure about xmms but I know irssi isn't there thats all I use for irc. [01:08] Histo: Yes and yes. Is there no other reason it wouldn't apply? [01:09] histo: ok, I can't get fglrx to work , after install X dies. Anyone got any knowledge in this area? [01:09] yes mshooshtari , sounds odd i know but please try, then on bootup plug in USB devices one by one and test 'til you hit a problem [01:09] computer1: no the file should be saved. Nothing should be editing the fstab [01:09] JFactor47: try F11 twice [01:09] So if I add a tmpfs to it, it'll always be there? [01:09] Supposedly? :P [01:09] Sup. [01:09] UBUNTU 9.04 [01:09] yo [01:09] great [01:09] JFactor47: turn compiz off while playing [01:10] can you access ftp://ftp.alsa-project.org/pub/driver/alsa-driver-1.0.19.tar.bz2 [01:10] just got my new hdd in and ran through 9.04's install. [01:10] brb [01:10] !ati | neskat [01:10] neskat: For Ati/NVidia/Matrox video cards, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto [01:10] Lysi: I do not use compiz well playing games, I will try the f11 thing [01:10] histo: I've alread poured through the wiki and all documentation I can find to no avail, I always RTM before asking [01:11] neskat: What type of video card do you have? === media is now known as media` [01:11] neskat: possibly someone else has that card in here might be able to lend a hand. [01:11] Lysi: didn't work I still have the problem, it is with x-moto and dosbox and other such related things [01:11] daftykins: I'll try that now [01:12] histo: there were a few people here earlier that had it working, they seem to be not here anymore === media` is now known as media [01:12] So I'm asking around to see if anyone is using the said drivers [01:12] i'm having an odd issue where with my mouse, i do a single click, but my mouse double clicks === media is now known as media` [01:12] can you access ftp://ftp.alsa-project.org/pub/driver/alsa-driver-1.0.19.tar.bz2 [01:13] JFactor47: sorry, no other idea at the moment [01:13] lukavia: doesn't look like it. [01:13] LVM partitions. Anyone using them? Anyone at all? Bueller? [01:13] Lysi: alright thank you [01:13] !anyone | sgallagh [01:13] sgallagh: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..." Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out? [01:14] i dont get it [01:14] Lysi, its still not working [01:14] ubottu: I tried that three or four times already. The problem is that the boot sequence tries to mount all partitions before running vgchange -a to initialize /dev/mapper [01:14] Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) [01:14] i moved n mounted my home directory to a new partition [01:14] Lysi, i used sudo /etc/init.d/alsa-utils restart [01:14] xiaolindraconis: whats wrong with it? [01:14] yet nothing is workign in sounds [01:14] histo: Sorry, that should have been directed at you. [01:14] histo: do not [01:15] gparted and conky tells me that sda1 only has 14% free [01:15] Has anyone encountered the ubuntu games/a[pplications resolution being cut off on the bottom of the screen in fullscreen mode [01:15] if I were to make a xubuntu usb persistant install from ubuntu (both 9.04) would I follow the 8.04 instructions? [01:16] JFactor47: I thought there was a tool to do it form the new cds. but maybe not in xuubntu. [01:16] histo, persistent is different to sorta "live-key" making [01:16] http://www.pendrivelinux.com/usb-xubuntu-804-persistent-install-from-linux/ [01:16] histo: what kind of tool? [01:16] would there be any kind of problem using the above in 9.04? [01:17] CradLeRcker: try to reconfigure alsa: sudo dpkg-reconfigure alsa-base [01:17] JFactor47: nvm [01:17] i know i can boot to windows and use unetbootin but i don't want to boot to windows... [01:17] :) [01:17] So I ask again. Has anyone in here solved the bootup race condition regarding LVM mounts? [01:17] JFactor47: but yes the 8.04 howto should still work for current. [01:17] any idea how to get these to display my real free space? [01:17] histo thx [01:18] histo: which howto? [01:18] sgallagh: complexities such as LVM sounds like something only a very small amount of people who come here would know anything about [01:18] unfortunatly, none of those people appear to be here now [01:18] CradLeRcker: you did unmute in alsamixer 'External Amplifier'? [01:18] hey I am back! [01:18] this is offtopic, but maybe someone here can help me: i made an impress presentation with embedded videos. how can i save the file so that it contains the embedded videos? (i want to be able to put the whole thing on a USB stick) [01:18] JFactor47: whoops wrong person sorry just ignore my nonsense. [01:18] LjL: <3 [01:19] JFactor47, i think he was talking to me ;) [01:19] alright [01:19] why do my applications get cut off at the bottom in fullscreen [01:19] space_cadet: I was sorry bout that. [01:19] .. [01:19] neskat: It can't be that difficult... it's the default partitioning scheme in Fedora... [01:20] histo, not a problem. [01:20] Okay, got svideo out working under the xf86-video-ati driver. But a quarter of the display covers the whole tv, is there a way to fix that? [01:20] benovic: try adding the videos while everything is saved to the usbstick. If you look around, there should be a place to edit how the videos are linked in after the fact. [01:20] Lysi, yes [01:20] neskat: What I'm looking for is someone who understands the boot process, not LVM [01:20] Lysi, everything is unmuted [01:20] I know LVM [01:21] I think the same principle applies [01:21] is there a way to display my actual free space? [01:21] benovic: you might even be able to do relative paths and put everything in one directory. I don't know. [01:21] in terms of amount of people with enough knoweldge [01:21] How do I restart alsa without restarting the computer? It was not working correctly, and the only thing I could hear was a constant clicking, so I ran "sudo alsa unload" which did nothing, so I ran "sudo alsa force-unload", which got rid of the clicking. But now I can't make it start again. And I am in the process of updating, so reboot is not a option for another 45 minutes. Help? [01:21] xiaolindraconis, df -h [01:21] ty, jdu! [01:21] so theres no one file solution i guess, jdu [01:21] wireless does not connect since upgrade to 9.04, anyone know solution??? [01:22] thats not showing [01:22] it gives me a lie [01:22] daftykins: It was crazy but it worked [01:22] /home is a mounted partition [01:22] sounds like somethings gone wrong in your install xiaolindraconis [01:22] mshooshtari, may i PM you? [01:22] Hello, im having a problem with sound in ubuntu. [01:22] CradLeRcker: please pastebin: modprobe -l | grep snd | grep intel [01:22] daftykins: sure thing [01:22] ive moved /home to a new partition [01:23] benovic: not that I have found (I looked for one in 2.2 or so though) [01:23] The resolution is ok normally but when I got to fullscreen in something like xmoto with alt-enter the resolution is cut off [01:23] but sda1 is still displaying the space as if /home was apart of it [01:23] Noone knows? I remember there being some scaling options or somehting but I can't find them. [01:23] benovic: you could save it in the powerpoint format though. [01:23] the sound keeps stopping after a while, when i am watching any videos with flash. [01:23] dburger, pastebin your iwconfig, ifconfig and sudo lshw |grep -i wireless [01:23] benovic: that would solve it aslong as everything remains the same in the presentation. [01:23] test test is this working? [01:24] !hi | Dayofswords [01:24] Dayofswords: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu! [01:24] Any ideas?? [01:24] cool it works =p i hope on next startup ubuntu will work [01:24] jdu, hehe, ur kidding :) [01:24] damn i gotta eat dinner then ill be back to try n figure this out [01:25] How do I restart alsa without restarting the computer? It was not working correctly, and the only thing I could hear was a constant clicking, so I ran "sudo alsa unload" which did nothing, so I ran "sudo alsa force-unload", which got rid of the clicking. But now I can't make it start again. And I am in the process of updating, so reboot is not a option for another 45 minutes. Help? [01:25] So, I'm trying to cross-compile a program for windows (from ubuntu). What should the target be? I've got to "i386-pc-" but then I don't know what to do. [01:25] anyone can see my text? not sure if its posting. [01:25] Lysi, http://paste.ubuntu.com/160318/ [01:25] Illuminated: yup, gotcha [01:26] !hi | illuminated [01:26] illuminated: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu! [01:26] Thank you. [01:26] Anyone got the fglrx drivers working on any ATI card? [01:26] lakotajames: try sudo /etc/init.d/alsa-utils restart === k is now known as Guest17552 [01:26] ok, going to try restart... hopefully ubuntu will start [01:26] I'm trying to fix sound problems in ubuntu, but im a newbie and don't really know what im doing unfortunately :( [01:26] jdu:ty [01:27] neskat: What card do you have? [01:27] ?QUESTION?: Is there a "LINUX or UNIX REGISTRY" must like there is a windows registry? [01:27] Guest17552: no, because we have something even better :) [01:27] space_cadet: http://paste.ubuntu.com/160319/ [01:27] Guest17552: each program has its own configuration. [01:27] creeper386b: ati radeon 2400 hd [01:27] sebsebseb, oh? [01:27] Guest17552, yes but the project is highly outdated, and has been abandoned because it is so pointless [01:28] Guest17552: instead of a stupid Windows registery, we have hidden .folders in home which has program user files. for example a Firefox profile [01:28] Guest60914: not ordinarily [01:28] Quick question.. I have a Logitech MX5500 I am trying to get working with ubuntu. For it to work I have to unplug the wireless adapter and plug it back in after bootup, is there anyway to automate this? [01:28] space_cadet: didn't know there had been a project [01:28] Guest17552: There is gconf, but thats mostly for Gnome values, and its much more structured than the Windows registry. [01:28] dburger, lol sudo lshw |grep -i wireless [01:28] space_cadet, sebsebseb Pici okay great, thats exactly what i needed to know. thanks! === Jeremified is now known as Guest96700 [01:28] many apps are moving their settings to .config/programname also tehse days [01:28] CradLeRcker: it should look like this: http://paste.ubuntu.com/160321/ [01:29] dburger, lswh? [01:29] sebsebseb: you think random hidden conf files beat a central location to store config info? [01:29] Sorry for being a pain about this, but i wanted to know what was wrong, getting tired of rebooting everytime the sound goes off :( [01:29] ha sorry got it. [01:29] ok im building a new server...usually i use debian stable. I decided to go with ubuntu lts server edition this time. Every time i install something i get a complaint about how apt cannot connect to a specific ip address. I run update and then the install and its fine. [01:29] neskat: the Windows registery is a load of junk [01:29] the thing is i have to do this 2 or 3 times in the span of about 30 min [01:29] space_cadet: [01:29] neskat: got to be a Windows geek to know how to use the Windows registery properly [01:29] sebsebseb: I think it's a way better design that what Linux does [01:29] are things being updated on lts at that rate? [01:29] sebsebseb, http://www.germane-software.com/software/Libraries/registry/ [01:29] neskat: just like got to be a Windows geek to know what the blue screen of death error codes actsaully mean [01:29] grendal_prime: could be some server is having problems.. they took a lot of 'load' in the last few days. [01:30] grendal_prime, have you at any point manually added any APT repositories? into the /etc/apt/sources.list file ? [01:30] space_cadet: thanks [01:30] space_cadet: http://paste.ubuntu.com/160323/ [01:30] sebsebseb: I spent years being a 'windows geek' for work [01:30] neskat: and Windows is the one that is meant to be all user friendly, ha ha [01:30] its startup fine this time, wooooot [01:30] I'm having problems with Nautilus. Most non-filesystem protocols (computer:///, network:///, trash:///) return the error message 'Nautilus cannot handle "protocol" locations.' [01:30] daftykins: no not yet...just setting up the basic web server type box [01:30] Writing this from a LiveCD. 9.04 upgrade got very messed up, I was having problems so I'm going to reinstall. Before I do that I was trying to copy stuff from my /home partition onto a server on my network as a backup. I've mounted the partition and everything, but for whatever reason, whenever I try to copy, I get an access error about some of the folders in my home directory. ls -l doesn't show them as having any properties different from the oth [01:30] ers, any idea why I can't copy them all? [01:30] CradLeRcker: modules need to be installed, see page https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting [01:30] sebsebseb: at least it forces you into a standard making rolling out apps accross multiple server easy [01:30] *servers [01:30] i got sick of windows a few days ago. then i installed ubuntu. [01:31] neskat: Windows server, uh pretty pointless, since Unix and Linux servers :) [01:31] grendal_prime, could be as dr_willis says then, but you could pastebin your sources.list for us to have a look in case ? === Guest96700 is now known as Jeremified [01:31] i tried mint but it didnt work properly. well.. it didnt even install. [01:31] neskat: plus the whole freedom stuff :) with opensource and freesoftware [01:31] !freedom [01:31] Is there a way that I can stop the key applet from showing up when I boot to enter a password? [01:31] freedom is important. Ubuntu is as free as we can make it, which means mostly free software. See http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/free-sw.html and http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/licensing [01:31] sebsebseb: I agree, but half the world still runs them for enterpirse apps [01:31] *prise [01:31] neskat: yeah well that's, because most computer users are ignorant, hence why Windows gained most of the market, anyway off topic [01:31] any other ubuntu newbies here? [01:31] dburger, lol sudo lshw |grep -i wireless -B 5 -C 15 [01:31] Anyone know if there is a way to scale down tv out to display all of the screen instead of only a small portion of it? [01:31] what is the default location of screenshots? [01:32] sebsebseb: ignorance has nothing to do with corporate windows server usage, please go work in the real world then try and scholl me [01:32] *school [01:32] ok so with Songbird, when installing with a deb, it says it installed, but in terminal it says "ldconfig deferred processing now taking place", and just hangs there [01:32] dburger, sorry i have you running the same modified command three times :) [01:32] is there something like the task manager in ubuntu? [01:32] dylnuge: try as root? [01:32] Illuminated: conky [01:32] neskat: propritary software locks people in, end of story [01:32] Illuminated: yes, system>admin>system monitoring [01:33] sebsebseb: I agree, I never contested that point, that was totally random [01:33] thanks ill check it out :) [01:33] jdu: Yeah, I tried running nautilus as root, didn't help. I would use cp from the terminal with sudo, but I don't know how to reference this folder right: smb://hd-hlan021/share/homeCopy [01:33] hi! my edirol ua-25ex isn't loading at boot; I've commented out snd-usb-audio from modprobe.d/alsa-base, but it still doesn't load. can anyone point me in a place to look? [01:33] neskat: Unix used to lock people in to, hence why Richard Stallman started the GNU project, and yeah along come Linux distros later. I assume you know this story [01:33] neskat: Windows server is laughed at by many in the Linux community :d [01:33] space_cadet: http://paste.ubuntu.com/160325/ no worries I'll run it 5 times if you can figure out why wireless stopped working on upgrade to 9.04 [01:33] sebsebseb: I don't need a histroy lesson, please stop spoting random facts in an attempt to look clever [01:33] *spouting [01:34] neskat: and companies like to standardize, and so naturalely they are going to usually go for the one that has most marekt share, for the computer task they want to do [01:34] eliteism is not a good thing on either side [01:34] http://pastebin.com/m7bd5a94f [01:34] dylnuge: odd. Could you scp in the files over instead than using smb? [01:34] woops wrong chan [01:34] What is the minimum Sound Card Req. for 9.04? [01:34] anyone play runescape and know how to get java to work [01:35] jdu: How do I do that? [01:35] i just got a computer from a friend, installed ubuntu, and plugged it into the internet, but it won't recognize the connection. i'm pretty sure it has an ethernet controller (from lspci) but still no luck [01:35] and i have no idea where to start! [01:35] if anyone could help, that would be awesome [01:35] SPiEkY: there is no "minimum requirement" [01:35] dylnuge: what os is the server running? [01:35] dburger, you know what model the card is? [01:35] ok, thnx [01:35] BigBlue, so you installed w/o the network connection [01:36] jdu: It's a shared hard drive type device, not really sure. === cshadowrun is now known as CShadowRun [01:36] space_cadet: no, it is dell latitude that I was loaned out for work. [01:36] !nvidia [01:36] For Ati/NVidia/Matrox video cards, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto [01:36] jtholmes, installed 9.04 from the disk [01:36] space_cadet: i really don't know what the card is. [01:36] space_cadet: but worked before 9.04 upgrade. [01:36] !intel hda [01:36] dburger, it's a lucent/agere [01:36] Sorry, I don't know anything about intel hda [01:36] !intel audio [01:36] BigBlue, w/o the network connected when installing from disc [01:36] Sorry, I don't know anything about intel audio [01:36] !intel [01:36] Sorry, I don't know anything about intel [01:36] ..... [01:36] Jeremified: what's the issue? [01:36] !audio [01:36] 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 [01:37] jtholmes, i think so. i'm not sure i'd know either way O_o lol [01:37] dtchen: My Intel sound card doesn't work. [01:37] dylnuge: no then, if you don't have access to set it up, scp won't work unless a ssh-server is already running on the server. Have you tried using something other than gnome/nautilus? [01:37] jtholmes, actually, yes.. network wasn't connected when installing [01:37] dylnuge: understandibly that is harder from a livecd [01:37] jtholmes, the cord wasn't even plugged in ;) [01:37] does #ubuntu-help get redirected to #ubuntu? [01:37] BigBlue, have you rebooted the machine with the network cable connected to the machine? [01:37] Jeremified: are you sure it doesn't work, or is it just that you can't hear anything from it? [01:37] jdu: Nope. Like I said, I was considering using "sudo cp -r /home/dnugent smb://hd-hlan021/share/homeCopy" but I don't think smb://... is a directory. === omfglol is now known as Hamsun [01:38] another thing, how do i get shortcuts on the desktop, like one to the computer (like My Computer in windows) .. sorry about the newbie questions. [01:38] dburger, model number of the latitude? [01:38] jtholmes, negative. didn't think that mattered :( will do now === Hamsun is now known as Hansum [01:38] Dayofswords: likely, since this is the help channel. if you have questions about the #ubuntu channel namespace, better off asking in #ubuntu-irc though. [01:38] dylnuge: but if the computer does allow ssh, the command is scp -r path/to/files/* username@ip:path/to/location/on/server [01:38] dtchen: I'm not sure. alsa seems to be configured correctly, and I've checked for any stupid mistakes like plugging the speakers in and un-muting everything. [01:38] BigBlue, lets start with that [01:38] dylnuge: yes smb:// wouldn't help you. [01:38] space_cadet: ha, great question let me look at the bottom I guess! [01:39] lol [01:39] jdu: Is there a way to mount the network drive then? [01:39] Does anyone know if samba shares are mounted anywhere particularly? [01:39] please assist : screen, using the "common" keybindings, how do I send F keys (ie: f9) to the console? [01:39] jtholmes, if this works im gonna be so mad, lol. i laugh at people like me [01:39] space_cadet: c540 / c640 ??? [01:39] BigBlue, its ok [01:39] dylnuge: depends on what the server is running. I have one that provides nfs, which is designed to be mounted as if it is a local filesystem. [01:40] how can i get a netconfig file ? [01:40] dylnuge: unfortunately, my experience is limited with samba [01:40] Anyone own a Dell with Ubuntu preinstalled? [01:40] jdu: No problem, thanks for your help. Theoretically, if I reinstall I don't need to reformat or install over the /home partition anyway, right? [01:41] dylnuge: correct [01:41] jtholmes, ok still no connection [01:41] How do I force my machine to update its DNS settings? [01:41] dylnuge: just install over / and then add /home in /etc/fstab [01:41] dburger looks like it may be a broadcom chipset... [01:41] I mean, to somehow refresh its DNS database from the server or something [01:41] dburger, and it's using the orinoco drivers [01:41] BigBlue, ok lspci -vvv to a file and paste it [01:41] jdu: Thanks. I'm going to go ahead and copy what I can. Not sure why some of the files and folders don't want to copy though. [01:42] The problem is I just created a subdomain and Apache2 won't start because it says the subdomain cannot be resolved, even though from other machines I can resolve it already. [01:42] BigBlue, do you know how to paste a file to pastebin [01:43] just upped to 9.04, but now my bottom panel and app launcher are too dark [01:43] trying to set theme, but its not exactly working I think [01:43] is there actually a netconfig install for ubuntu ?

[02:48] jedimind: that's quite possible [02:48] I have ubuntu 9.04 64bits, and I have problem with audio card..when I plug a headset or headphone..the speaker still sound..and headphone too, ubuntu dont recognize the jack.. [02:48] i just want to be sure if i'll have 320kb mp3 quality [02:48] Hymosis: FLAC is lossless and gets about 2:1 compression, MP3 is ubiquitous and gets about 12:1 depending on several factors, OGG is completely open source but is not supported by iPods... [02:48] ghoti: how would i go about flushing dns cache ? [02:49] ghoti thanks a lot for your time and help [02:49] anyone know how to fix no sound with flash video on 9.04? [02:49] BigBlue, when you plug in the ethernet cable to the machine do any green or yellow lights appear on the very back of the ethernet card [02:49] anyone know a lot about anti-virus softwhere? [02:49] aa1: my pleasure :) [02:49] BigBlue, next to where you plug n the cable [02:49] clam-av has a linux version [02:49] other then that i know nothing of virus prots [02:50] can i scan a windows PC with it? [02:50] so if i use flac then ipods will be recognised? [02:50] yes [02:50] aa1: This guide will probably be helpful: http://www.google.com/url?sa=U&start=3&q=http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php%3Ft%3D275856&ei=PbL3San7A4SHtgeD34ztDw&sig2=IFAdWtohOLD-LnT9iNw6dg&usg=AFQjCNFlqHW847RGUGRm6KjAjGD8QInDrA [02:50] cool thanks [02:50] Hymnosis, just set it to convert at 320kb ogg. If you want even better quality, try FLAC - but the files will be larger [02:50] heyyy !! [02:50] ghoti can i ask u if can u say me the best quickly way to use my pc from an other place... sorry for my english, i'm italian... [02:50] Hymnosis: No, iPods only can see MP3 and Apple proprietary formats. [02:50] -.- [02:50] i need some help, to install ie on my ubuntu hardy , with wine ! [02:51] i already have wine installed ! but i cant do the stuff ... [02:51] aa1: Your English is better than that of many Americans with whom I speak :) [02:51] jtholmes, no :( [02:51] Hymnosis: FLAC is only useful for retaining the highest quality possible, not really that useful for portable audio. [02:51] jtholmes, but it's the only slot for it [02:51] my english sucks too ... i'm from morocco, and i just speak french well ! [02:51] ghoti so gentlemen...... [02:51] aa1: the best options for accessing your PC from elsewhere are SSH for the command-line, or VNC for your desktop [02:51] so sorry if i do mistakes [02:51] anyone could recomend a mp3 ripper for ubuntu for my ipod? [02:51] BigBlue, what motherboard is it [02:52] !info songbird | Hymnosis [02:52] Hymnosis: Package songbird does not exist in jaunty [02:52] Hi, I just installed kubuntu 9.04 onto my ps3, everything works great except for vnc. I don't think it's a ps3 specific problem, so I came here. This is what I see when I log into my vnc server: http://www.adrensoftware.com/images/screenshot.png [02:52] o.O No songbird in jaunty?! [02:52] lol [02:52] ghoti i've search for vnc but i've see only clients and server fow win [02:52] BigBlue, if u dont know it isnt important [02:52] aa1: They're there for Linux as well- apt-cache search vnc for a list of packages [02:52] jtholmes, do i see that from lspci? no i don't know [02:53] jtholmes, got this machine from a friend [02:53] ghoti is the just installed application right for do it with ubuntu 9.04? [02:53] thanks guys ill try songbird [02:53] aa1: I'm sorry, could you rephrase that? [02:53] BigBlue, what is the machine you are currently talking to me laptop, desktop ?? [02:53] jtholmes, laptop [02:54] need help to install ie with wine, im using Hardy heron .. and i already have wine installed !!! [02:54] allright guys..... creating a xubuntu live usb disk from ubuntu (both 9.04) now... are pendrivelinux.com/downloads/xu8/syslinux.cfg and pendrivelinux.com/downloads/xu8/initrd.gz release specific? [02:54] i.e. can i use 8 with 9? [02:54] BigBlue, ok look at the ethernet connection are there any lights near the plugin [02:55] BigBlue, plugin on the laptop [02:55] jtholmes, looks like there could be [02:55] ghoti in ubuntu 9.04 there are 2 apps, one for server and one for client, so can i use these? i've try one time but with no win [02:55] big what do u mean could be can you see any [02:55] does anybody has alsa 1.0.19 ?? [02:55] jtholmes, yup [02:56] aa1: you need the server on the computer you wish to connect *to*; and the client on the computer you wish to connect *from*. [02:56] does anybody has alsa 1.0.19 install file ?? [02:56] Is anyone else experiencing lagging (especially in the menus) in Firefox in Jaunty? And if so, has anyone found a fix for it? [02:56] my friend things my problem is because of xorg [02:56] BigBlue, note how many and what color to yourself [02:56] ghoti i know [02:56] jtholmes, sure [02:56] ghoti but for do it in different place, can i do it if ip's changes? [02:57] when I did the upgrade to 9.04, the "run dialog box" (alt+f2) isn't working anymore. why? [02:57] aa1: yes, but you'll need to know what the IP is, or set up a dynamic DNS service; look at www.no-ip.org for information on that. [02:57] hmm [02:58] can someone gimme a hand with a little permissions issue? I want to be able to download files as a specific user, but have those files accessable to www-data . Anyone can suggest how i can do this? [02:58] dtchen: can you give me the aplay command again? [02:58] dtchen: nevermind [02:58] <`Ned> if I click on 'Places' and it shows 'CD-RW/DVD-ROM Drive', does it mean I can't burn video from my pc to dvd disc? [02:58] BigBlue, ok this will (may) cause u to loose your internet connection, but you can come back here after doing the following remove the ethernet cable from the laptop and plug in the cable from the linux machine that we have been working on, reconfig your network on the laptop and see if you get the same number and color of lights [02:58] faileas: once you have the files, chgrp www-dada /path/to/the/file [02:58] does anybody has alsa 1.0.19 install file ?? [02:59] ghoti thx, i've read about no-ip before, but i wanna leave my opendns... shall i can? [02:59] # [02:59] BigBlue, if you loose connection then come back after checking the second cable [02:59] anyone knows what happened to the alt+f2 ? [02:59] ghoti: i don't want to do it individually. I don't mind if i need to add a seperate user to do this tho [02:59] ghoti ps. with filezilla i can share to with other people?? [02:59] ghoti in other places? [03:00] aa1: filezilla is a client; but you can use filezilla to connect to your system with the SSH server to download anything you need again [03:00] someone uses skype? [03:00] in ubuntu 9.0? [03:00] Need Help with Realtek ALC660-VD speakers don't mute when headphones plugged in, I have ASUS notebook F3ka series [03:00] i want to know how is configured [03:00] what topic would be most helpful when trying ti find a manual explaining how to install only packages from a ppa if they exist in the ppa and in the main distribution? a package that was only in the ppa is now in jaunty and in ppa it's libffado2 and in jaunty it's libffado0 a few more similar differences in naming and well, stuff that worked in intrepid does not want to install the same in jaunty [03:00] faileas: if all the files are in one directory, you can 'chgrp -R www-data /path/to/the/files/*' [03:01] jtholmes, looks as if it could be more... odd [03:01] ned u dont have a dvd burner according to that output [03:01] jtholmes, seems there are more colors i didn't even notice [03:01] i have a general question about ubuntu, is there a way to make an upgrade a bit more fresh? [03:01] what i mean is, I think my computer is not as fast as it should be as a fresh install... when i create a new user, everything runs much faster.. but i don't want to go through the hassle of creating a new user and setting up everything like i have for my current user all over again.. thanks for any help! [03:02] BigBlue, well all i really want to know is if you can connect and talk here on either cable that is the test [03:02] jtholmes, definitely can, and plugged the other one into the linux machine [03:02] BigBlue, ie able to talk to inet on both cables regardless of lights [03:02] can someone at least tell me if you guys r seeing my msgs? i don't know if anyone's even seeing my msgs?! [03:02] jtholmes, thought so lol [03:02] /j #ubuntu-es [03:02] xubean your question is interessant , I wanto to know too [03:03] ghoti filezilla is a ftp sharing app, is it? i've to read more about nets... so thanks very much! You're a very Ubuntu man!!! I feel this in my heart in the same way when i help my friends and i speak all people about gnu-linux. i love share [03:03] /j #ubuntu-es [03:03] xubean: you could look at System -> preference -> startup applications and seeing if there's some cruft in there that you could disable [03:03] anyone knows what happened to the alt+f2 ? [03:03] how do i check my resources i.e. cpu usage and ram [03:03] thanks ghoti, i did that.. [03:03] BigBlue, u can use either cable on the laptop to talk to the internet? [03:03] ghoti: not much improvement.. [03:03] jtholmes, yup [03:03] /j #ubuntu-es [03:03] aa1: no, filezilla is not a file-sharing app as such, it's a file transfer program like FTP or wget. [03:04] xubean: you could run htop to see what's slowing your computer down. Are you using compiz? [03:04] Hey, does anyone know what to do for ubuntu 9.04 and a Broadcom BCM4306 NIC... do you still need to do the ndiswrapper thing? [03:04] diguinho: it should still be a run dialog [03:04] ghoti yes, not p2p but may i've write bad before what i means.. [03:04] seba: sin espacio. [03:04] BigBlue, are there any lights lit near the ethernet cable when it is plugged into the linux machine? [03:04] jtholmes, so it's definitely not the connection then hey? any other idea ;) [03:04] freehood4all: I thought they were using new drivers where you didn't need the firmware but I could be wrong. [03:04] !broadcom > freehood4all [03:04] freehood4all, please see my private message [03:04] jtholmes, negative on the lights [03:04] histo: no, it's not working since I upgraded to 9.04 [03:05] I know because I use it all the times. [03:05] thanks! [03:05] ghoti: yes, i'm using compiz... it's not really that slow.. it's just not optimum as it should be i think.. [03:05] I'm having trouble getting jaunty sparc installation to detect the cdrom in my sunblade 100, any tips? [03:05] diguinho: check under the keyboard shortcut settings [03:05] xubean: you could try (temporarily) not using compiz and seeing if that makes things more snappy [03:05] already checked. [03:05] ghoti i've write i love share, like communicate and share experience and help [03:05] it's there. Run dialog.. alt+f2 [03:05] can anybody help me with vnc? [03:05] even did the shortcut again [03:05] BigBlue_, can you take a flashlight and see if there are very tiny bulbs near the plug in on the linux machine [03:05] ghoti ;) [03:05] my alt and my f2 keys are working. [03:05] aa1: I understand, and I like sharing my knowledge and helping others too :) [03:06] ghoti: tried that too.. not much of a difference.. it's weird [03:06] aa1: that's why I'm here :) [03:06] ghoti ;) === Prodego_ is now known as Prodego [03:06] ghoti: my cpu usage is around 50% on average.. and memory almost never goes above 60 (max).. and it's still a bit slow [03:06] xubean: take a look at htop and see if you see anything in particular tying up any resources [03:06] ghoti can i ask u if u got a blog an your age? [03:07] aa1: If you're asking my age, I'm 30. If you're asking if I have a blog, I don't currently. [03:07] how do you delete a folder using term? [03:07] rmdir [03:07] thx [03:07] i3luefire: rmdir /path/to/directory [03:07] i3luefire, rm -fr FOLDER_NAME [03:07] ghoti: i don't have htop installed, isn't that the same as looking at the system monitor? basically to see what program is using what resources? [03:07] i never use rmdir [03:08] i3luefire, sudo rm -fr FOLDER_NAME [03:08] ghoti: i am trying to avoid installing too many apps [03:08] i3luefire: be **VERY** careful with 'rm -rf'! [03:08] xubean, system monitor takes up like 30% cpu, htop is better [03:08] aah.. [03:08] anyone install gnome-main-menu package and use it now? [03:08] eseven73: aah.. i'll try htop then. [03:08] ironic system monitor takes up so much resources [03:08] xubean: any GUI process monitor will take up more CPU time than a console-based one. :) [03:08] jtholmes, can't see any tiny bulbs, but i can see where i assume the lights would go on [03:09] fho what if its not empty? [03:09] ghoti sorry if i've ask u personal things, i'm 23 from sardinia, and today it's my first time to chat in ubuntu, i hate chat with no need or outside skype. i'm now a very hooligan of ubuntu.. may we can write us if u want [03:09] ghoti, what if its not empty? [03:09] i3luefire, u nevered use rm -rf? === A is now known as gantry [03:09] i3luefire: if it's not empty and you don't want to bother emptying it out, you can use 'rm -rf /path/to/directory', but again, be VERY careful [03:10] Need Help with Realtek ALC660-VD speakers don't mute when headphones plugged in, I have ASUS notebook F3ka series [03:10] i3luefire: if you're root and you accitentally 'rm -rf / path/to/directory', you just hosed your system [03:10] BigBlue_, same thing hard to describe but some sort of light/bulbs etc. near the ethernet rj45 plug ok next lets make sure the ethernet card is not somehow disable in the BIOS r u familiar with the BIOS on that mahcine [03:10] ghoti: well i am looking at htop right now, and nothing seems out of the ordinary.. [03:10] I have the Medibuntu source added. Why is it that when I type 'aptitude search skype' it returns nothing? [03:10] jtholmes, not at all :( [03:11] ok thx [03:11] ghoti: the highest memory is being taken up by either firefox or tweetdeck, and it keeps going up and down that's basically it.. [03:11] jtholmes, let me look tho, [03:11] gantry: did you do an 'apt-get update' since adding the source? [03:11] gantry, did you do sudo aptitude update? [03:11] no [03:11] let me try [03:11] that why [03:11] xubean: I don't suppose tweetdeck is the problem? ;) [03:11] BigBlue_, well at this point i feel sure it is either the network card or it is for some reason turned off in the BIOS [03:11] ghoti, eseven73: is there anything particular i should be looking at? [03:11] BigBlue_, do you know how to access the BIOS when booting [03:12] BigBlue_: who makes your computer? [03:12] hey! [03:12] jtholmes, goes so fast! gah! [03:12] hows it going all [03:12] im chilling taking a break from my signals pset you know what im saying? [03:12] BigBlue_, radical asked who made your computer please [03:13] ghoti: yeah tweetdeck shouldn't be the problem [03:13] anyone having problems with vmware workstation 6.5.2? [03:13] radical, no idea, it's a friends...uhh...says medion on the back... i think it runs on athlon maybe? :( [03:13] does anyone know what the seahorse daemon is? [03:13] xubean, I didn't catch the entire conversation so im not sure, [03:13] xubean: the only think I can think of is to close all your open applications, and open one at a time until it starts acting sluggishly again, and then you've likely found the culprit [03:14] BigBlue_, try pressing Delete key repeatedly when booting to see if it goes into bios [03:14] I was looking for a brand name. You'll need to press F12, F2, or Delete probably to get into the BIOS. [03:14] seahorse is a frontend for GNUPG [03:14] hello. I think my HDD is dead and I'm trying to boot with ubuntu live CD but I can't. what's wrong? [03:14] BigBlue_, see radical's msg ^^^ [03:15] jtholmes, haha im trying i keep missing it! [03:15] jtholmes, im in [03:15] GuestFBEB6E: check your BIOS boot order settings [03:15] you might need to F8 check your boot order [03:15] ghoti: thanks for the suggestions... it's not that kind of sluggish really.. it's just a bit sluggish in general.. since it begins loading.. [03:15] xubean, you can search apt for description of packages like apt-cache search seahorse [03:15] :) [03:15] ghoti: not a big deal though.. i just wanted to put the question out there to see if anyone can give me any new ideas... [03:15] i need help setting up my wireless on [03:15] GuestFBEB6E: you need to get into your BIOS. [03:15] v9.04 [03:16] xubean: that sort of subjective thing is hard to quantify like this; I'm sure you know what I mean :) [03:16] I have a problem with xbuntu. The volume is tooo low.. [03:16] BigBlue_, ok look at the various sections and see if there is anything that refers to the ethernet [03:16] when I put the volume higher it keeps comminh back low [03:16] when I restart [03:16] BigBlue_, arrow keys should move you around [03:16] should i just take a number? [03:16] jtholmes, can't see anything for 'ethernet' yet... but onboard LAN Boot Rom is disabled... could that be it? [03:17] Look for a section called onboard devices or device settings. [03:17] It's going to be in the same section as where you turn your video on and off probably. [03:17] how do you create new folders? [03:17] radical, ^^ [03:17] what is the equiv of chkconfig in ubuntu? [03:17] ive looked for awhile now [03:17] anyone have an idea why firefox stopped loading? [03:17] ghoti: yes.. i wasn't expecting any particular answer either.. more like tips and tricks if anybody knew and stuff.. [03:18] it just died when i updated it through the update manager [03:18] how do you create folders in "/home" [03:18] i cant find anywhere where i can turn on wireless [03:18] ghoti: i did learn a few things though.. so that was good.. [03:18] Dayofswords: Add users? [03:18] Dayofswords: mkdir /path/to/directory [03:18] xubean: that's a good start then, eh? :) [03:18] radical, would it be the onboard LAN boot rom?? not familiar w/that [03:18] jtholmes, 'OnChip Serial ATA' is also disabled, those are the only two [03:18] I've checked my BIOS and it boots from the CD [03:19] jtholmes: that sounds like support for PXE network booting [03:19] That's fine, BigBlue_ [03:19] Yeah, that's PXE network booting. [03:19] ghoti: yes [03:19] the menu for the live CD loads, but when I try to startup it gives a I/O error on the HD [03:19] i'm baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaack! [03:19] hey GuestFBEB6E [03:19] How do I change the password for my keyring? [03:19] i tried mkdir says "mkdir: cannot create directory `/home/.jagex_cache_32': Permission denied" [03:19] "" [03:19] radical does that have anything to do with the network card? [03:19] get the alternate disk [03:19] jtholmes, enabling them both and booting... worth a shot [03:19] is there an aplication in ubuntu to fix system errors that might have been generated by bad installs,system crashes and stuff like that? === jimi is now known as Tuxguy [03:20] usually the extra drivers it carries helps [03:20] BigBlue_, cant hurt [03:20] how can I reset sound to defaults (as when first installed)? I've managed to kill my mic recording ability, when I was just trying to boost it... (ubuntu jaunty 64bit, SB Live) [03:20] BigBlue_, i want to see if the light near the rj45 plug light up [03:20] Dayofswords: if you're trying to add to your home directory, you want to use /home/username/.jagex_cache_32 [03:20] BigBlue_, lights [03:20] Dayofswords: not just /home/.jagex_cache_32 [03:21] hola [03:21] a que nuevo de ubuntu de 2009 [03:21] !es [03:21] 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. [03:21] can any one help me with my wireless problem? [03:21] jtholmes, no lights :( [03:21] Thaxxman, just ask and see if anyone answers [03:22] ... thats what i am doing... [03:22] BigBlue_, too bad i am out of ideas [03:22] !ask | Thaxxman [03:22] Thaxxman: 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. :-) [03:22] let's be a little more specific [03:22] fthanx whats the question man [03:22] jtholmes, me too :( thanks anyway for the help! [03:22] Thaxxman rather [03:22] put my name in a few of the lines and i'll see it [03:22] Thaxxman, no as the specific question what is wrong, what wont work, what have you done [03:22] a que yo si entiendo a es escribiendo es me la enviando ok [03:22] is there an aplication in ubuntu to fix system errors that might have been generated by bad installs,system crashes and stuff like that? [03:23] ghoti: thanl you =[) it worked [03:23] i think i need to enable my wireless adapter [03:23] BigBlue_, are both laptop and linux machine plugged into a router? [03:23] ,y system is crashing way too much lately [03:23] jtholmes, yup [03:23] BlackCoffee we call that human intervention [03:23] BlackCoffee: yes: dpkg-reconfigure [03:23] where whould i go about doing that [03:23] haha [03:23] Thaxxman make sure its powered on if your on a lappy [03:23] BigBlue_, what port numbers [03:23] im useing it right now [03:23] i remember once i had a heck of a evening figuring out it was powered down [03:23] i got a hardwire connection right now [03:23] jtholmes, uhh.. not sure..? btw, do you know how i could check if this has a wireless card? [03:24] [22:23:23] BlackCoffee: yes: dpkg-reconfigure<<---and what will that do...sorry,i'm a total noob [03:24] because i just took windows off of it and it had wireless [03:24] jtholmes: Yeah, it's for booting over a network. You can load an Image or OS uisng a network connection instead of CD-ROM. [03:24] just did a ubuntu mini install of 9.04...with just base system...then installed gnome-core..x11-utils...and xserver-xorg....now im missing the package where you activate nvidia...what package do i install for that [03:24] BigBlue_, the one on the linux mach? [03:24] radical, thought so, thx [03:24] jtholmes, yeah the linux machine [03:24] brb graphics require restart [03:25] how can I reset sound to defaults (as when first installed)? I've managed to kill my mic recording ability, when I was just trying to boost it... (ubuntu jaunty 64bit, SB Live) [03:25] BigBlue_, not is you are plugging a wire into it, it is wired [03:25] BlackCoffee: dpkg-reconfigure will re-do the configuration of a package as though you had just installed it, which is great for fixing packages that had been broken by user error or other packages going where they don't belong [03:25] BigBlue_, can u see the router [03:25] Hey guys [03:25] ghoti: can I do that to my sound? [03:25] Sometimes on boot, mysql says it can not mae a socket through /var/run/mysqld.sock ... but.... if i manually start mysql it works [03:25] yes i am useing wired right now so i can get help... [03:25] ghoti? fish? [03:25] jtholmes, yes, they are all wired.. im using my vonage router [03:25] fr0de: try sudo dpkg-reconfigure pulseaudio [03:25] Demios: got it in one :) [03:25] bigblue, are you logged in? [03:26] heh [03:26] BigBlue_, how many ports 4? [03:26] jtholmes, i just don't know if this linux machine has a wireless card as well ;) [03:26] so i type dpkg-reconfigure ?

So when I initially installed Ubuntu 9.04 beta it gave me the option to create a boot screen between Windows and the Ubuntu installer. So I did that, now I have a regular OS boot screen, but if I choose to log onto Windows and select that option, I get another boot screen which asks me again to choose between Ubuntu and Windows XP, and I think that it's still [03:37] Thaxxman follow me exactly [03:37] ok [03:38] omg swine flu WE'RE ALL GUNNA DIE [03:38] open terminal: alt+f2 : terminal [03:38] got it [03:38] ok [03:38] sudo su - [03:38] type in userpass [03:38] zek_: that doesn't mean it's ok... read what ubottu told you [03:38] i would choose bird flu [03:38] !ot | aprilhare_ [03:38] aprilhare_: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions.

[03:40] any idea where I go to get rid of one of them? [03:40] Hi, I used to use alsamixer in the terminal to control the volume of my desktop. I did this because it was the only way for me to control my desktop's volume from my laptop (via SSH). In 9.04, it doesn't work anymore, presumably because pulseaudio is now used. Is there a 'mixer' for the terminal for it? [03:40] myself: the beta installer was *in* windows, or off a live disk? [03:40] faileas: sounds like BRUG and NTLDR in succession [03:40] GRUB even [03:40] it was off a live disk, but i started it in windows, then it asked me to reboot it i think [03:41] ghoti: Grub, then ntldr, chainloading something else [03:41] wubi [03:41] i'm half suspecious he's on wubi [03:41] dude [03:41] hello..I have a small question: I have networked from vista to ubuntu 9.04..I am able to share my files and my printer but I cant seem to get my second HD to share [03:41] im not running a virtual machine [03:41] or w/e [03:41] faileas: could be :) [03:41] i dont know what wubi is [03:41] myself: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.

[03:45] that's what i thought [03:45] Hi guys im back again.I have one last thing to try and sort out.I have been using "Parted Magic" live cd and using partition imager to do backups of a fresh ubuntu install, as well as a current backup with all apps and stuff installed. Im not sure if Im gonna keep using parted magic cause its been less and less reliable on my system, seems like more time is spent on interface than reliability on my system.Does anyone have a recomendation [03:45] gumby: is your drive mounted? [03:45] Does anyone know if there's a stable mac menu mod for gnome? [03:45] corinth: system -> preferences -> Encryption and Keyrings [03:45] yes [03:45] How do I make "find" omit "permission denied" messages? [03:45] MarkJones, are you talking about the proprietary partition magic, or the gparted live cd (free)? [03:45] gumby: Did you create a share on a folder? [03:46] zimbres: find 2 > /dev/null [03:46] nevermind I found it [03:46] do it as root [03:46] redirecting stdout to nowhere land [03:46] parted magic CD. === Guest32106 is now known as FaMott [03:46] do what as root? [03:46] i can right clickon other folders and it gives me the option for sharing but i cant seem to do that for my second HD [03:46] http://wiki.partedmagic.com [03:46] MarkJones, hm, i've never heard of something by that particular name, regardless, i've always had good luck with the gparted live cd [03:47] ismarc: I know about alt, but the wird non-resizing thing just started yesterday [03:47] ismarc, I thought there would be an option(I did not find in the man page) [03:47] neckostar: you still there... [03:47] my friend wants to know how to get his rocketfish bluetooth mouse mouse to scroll with 9.04 [03:47] Ok cool Ill check that one out.Thanks for the recomendation. [03:47] MarkJones, I would have to suggest gparted. try http://gparted.sourceforge.net [03:47] gumby: (use "jeffreyf:" preceding your reply so I can pick you out of the crowd). How is that drive formatted? [03:47] MarkJones, oh, it looks similar (both seem to use gparted) [03:48] jeffreyf:fat32 [03:48] he guys i have an hp pavilion dv5t laptop, I upgraded to ubuntu 9.04 and now my speakers wont work only my audio jack [03:48] zimbres: there isn't that I know of [03:48] Does the gparted CD only do partition editing or are there other apps on it? [03:48] MarkJones, but that was just a cursory look, so much changes with with parted, and its frontend, that the version # is really important, this is why i prefer using gparted, and running a relatively new build of their live cd [03:48] is there a way i can change the file system of root from ext3 to ext4.. i forgot to format it to ext4 at setup, i wanted to try it out [03:48] anyone else using UNR? [03:49] MarkJones, it is just the partition tool, just like gparted in regular linux, just on a live cd for those situations when you want to work with partitions you would normally operate your OS on [03:49] can someone help me with gparted? basically when i installed i accidentlaly put "/" as ext3 and like 16GB and "/boot" ext4 and 450GB. I meant to do the opposite but i was confused as to the directories. is there a way i can fix this [03:49] If you're in trouble he will save the day [03:49] what options should i set in my fstab for a 500gb SATA storage disk i just installed and formatted? i see my /home is mounted with just relatime, will relatime alone be my choice for perfmance? this new stick i want to store movies and music on... [03:49] He's brave and he's fearless come what may [03:49] Without him the mission would go astray [03:49] he guys i have an hp pavilion dv5t laptop, I upgraded to ubuntu 9.04 and now my speakers wont work only my audio jack [03:49] [03:49] MarkJones, or similar situations, consequentially, i think the Ubuntu Desktop live cd also has gparted [03:49] He's Arnold, Arnold, Arnold Rimmer [03:49] where is the file inittab in ubuntu? [03:49] Hi all, i want to ask if i can use two bittorent client in the same time with different ports, one to seed and the other to leech...? [03:50] zimbres, /etc/inittab [03:50] zimbres: /etc/inittab I believe [03:50] MarkJones, regardless, i'm off to bed, good luck! [03:50] Ok I dont realy need a partition utility although I will download that gparted live just to have it on hand.I need a system backup solution. [03:50] billybigrigger, Try using autofs or autosmb for network drive mapping works more reliable than fstab [03:50] he guys i have an hp pavilion dv5t laptop, I upgraded to ubuntu 9.04 and now my speakers wont work only my audio jack [03:51] Urns0, i don't follow [03:51] MarkJones, have u looked a rsync [03:51] Urns0, whats wrong with fstab entries? [03:51] no i havent [03:51] gumby: What is the folder name and what is the sharename your are trying to create? [03:51] darph: try this website, http://www.cyberciti.biz/tips/linux-convert-ext3-to-ext4-file-system.html [03:51] billybigrigger, is that drive a network drive? [03:51] billybigrigger, or local?

[03:52] ok [03:52] how do i find out the number of processors on a system i just sshed into? [03:52] billybigrigger, fstab mounts your drive everytime you boot autofs will only mount the drive when you use it [03:52] thanks jjrev [03:52] ubottu: send me a pm [03:52] Sorry, I don't know anything about send me a pm [03:52] MarkJones, http://sourceforge.net/projects/g4l [03:52] hmm [03:52] i put "/" as ext3 and like 16GB and "/boot" ext4 and 450GB. is there a way i can fix this with gparted [03:52] Urns0, ya i know, i wanted it mounted on boot [03:52] he guys i have an hp pavilion dv5t laptop, I upgraded to ubuntu 9.04 and now my speakers wont work only my audio jack [03:52] kravlin: top will show you.

[03:53] kravlin: top should show one line per core [03:53] wrektjet: i think you'll have to boot the LiveCD and just copy the contents of /boot to /, and then the other way for the other stuff. then you'll have to change you're grub and partition flags [03:53] Backup everything on a drive.

Full on conversations actually. So, I'll start right after this message. [04:27] <[_miT_]> MK13, but i have mad issues with it [04:27] I cant get cairo dock to work in jaunty. can someone help me? [04:27] thats what i figured... how would i turn it on if it was off? [04:27] hey all. anyone know how i can re install graphics driver, its not letting me activate it [04:27] I get: # Generated by NetworkManager [04:27] nameserver 192.168.1.1 [04:28] <[_miT_]> flughaffen, works fine on mine, but i installed it from the site, not from the repos [04:28] Thaxxman: I think I have the same or similar card from broadcom on my hp, doesnt play well w linux [04:28] Here is what I have. A rather lightweight laptop. 256Mb Ram. a fresh install of Ubuntu 9.04 via the Alt CD. [04:28] wrektjet, so refresh my memory you want the 485Gig to be what [04:28] [_miT_] i too installed the .deb package but I cant change the theme [04:28] haha just my luck... [04:28] <[_miT_]> flughaffen, my theme changed just fine. [04:28] <[_miT_]> hrm [04:28] is there a switch on it with an antenna image printed on it [04:28] is there anything i could do about it? [04:29] yeah [04:29] <[_miT_]> any reason why i cant find a package i just installed? http://pastebin.com/m38a506a2 [04:29] Thaxxman: it can be done though [04:29] [_miT_] are you using 9.04? which .deb did you dl? [04:29] i download and install nvidia hardware driver, but nothing happens [04:29] i am even able to pick up my ps3's wifi AP (for remote play) [04:29] is there a light there [04:29] jtholmes: the 485 to be /root and contain all my data like media files. and / to be the smaller 16 gig containing the os [04:29] i can run the network manager and add a network but nothing hapopens [04:29] likwid, did you install the server kernel by any chance? [04:29] <[_miT_]> flughaffen, yes im on 9.04 64bit. im trying to find those packages for you right now [04:29] i need to lighten the load. the gui is killing it. Apparently I missed a few steps along the way. I didn't see the option to CHOOSE my window manager or go without X during install. [04:29] [_miT_] im on 64 bit too, did you need to install a separate theme package? [04:29] is there an led next to the switch [04:30] im on a 32bit [04:30] no [04:30] <[_miT_]> flughaffen, no the deb i got had a bunch of themes that came with it [04:30] ok [04:30] unkmar: did you not use the actual server install cd? [04:30] what is the difference between xserver-xorg-video-ati and xserver-xorg-video-radeon ? [04:30] thaxxman: you have to find the proprietary broadcom drivers [04:30] does it indicate which way is on [04:30] where would thoses be? [04:30] yondering: i had the driver installed but i de-activated it because i wanted to test something out.... regarding the vertical lines i get once nvidia is installed. but i can't get it activated again [04:30] MK131: I did not use the Server CD. I used the Alternate CD. 9.04 Alternative. i386. [04:31] wrektjet there is a symantics thingy here / is the root directory of the system which contains /usr, /var, /lib, etc. and /root is a directory under / [04:31] the alternate still installs the desktop version... just doesnt have the graphics going on behind the installer [04:31] wrektjet, so [04:31] Quick question. If I were to boot to a LiveCD and resize my main ext4 partition to make room for an ntfs one, would the ext4 fs become corrupted? [04:31] whoa whoa whoa [04:31] 3.0.10 messed up on my system [04:31] MK131: I do not wish to remove X. but I would like to put a openbox, fluxbox or something else. [04:31] oh yeah [04:31] jtholmes: so u r saying im not being clear ? [04:31] likwid, oh, ok. was going to suggest making sure you have the kernel-headers for whichever kernel you're using installed. that tripped me up for a while on jaunty install. [04:32] Thaxxman: I had a link, I'll see if I can find it cause I need to use it too if I can ever get 9.04 successfully installed [04:32] wrektjet, no, that is not the problem [04:32] i'm having a problem starting irb on jaunty, can someone help me out please? http://pastebin.com/m31f0d76b [04:32] unkmar: kk, gotcha [04:32] Anyone else have their firefox install screwed over by the latest update? [04:32] ok [04:32] hello all. im about to install 9.04...but when it gets to the disk partitioning part....it doesnt see all the partitions on my 2nd hard drive. but if i ls /dev/ i see several /dev/sdb partitions ...its only a problem because my /home partition is on /dev/sdb [04:32] MK131: I would also like to ligthen any other non-critical background services. [04:32] unkmar: create .gnomerc and add something like export WINDOW_MANAGER=dwm [04:32] wrektjet, i need to see the mount points to be sure i understand where you want to go, so [04:32] my is quite laggy [04:33] Thaxxman: is there a pci card icon on the top bar of the screen? is the wifi switch on? [04:33] Hymnosis: No... in the latest upgrade, my computer froze, and firefox wasn't completely installed [04:33] jtholmes: i need to restart to doublecheck [04:33] MK131: I do know now to install other wm's I would like the fastest cleanest route to start with after I boot it up. Don't want to kill my HDD from all the swap usage. [04:33] unkmar: what are you currently having problems with (or do you just need to know how to start) [04:33] Hymnosis: Kinbrowser :Pda blows... 'cause then I had no [04:33] wrektjet, execute sudo mount /dev/sda2 /mnt [04:33] unkmar: that could have been more clear: you can run: echo "export WINDOW_MANAGER=dwm" > ~/.gnomerc [04:33] no it gives a signal strenght with an X across it... [04:33] Hymnosis, whoa... sorry... I meant "kinda blows, 'cause then I had no browser" [04:33] shoot! and it says netorking disabled... [04:33] unkmar: where dwm is the window manager name you want (probably not dwm) [04:34] jdu: so replace gdm with dwm. Sounds like a great start. [04:34] wrektjet, tell me when it is mounted [04:34] unkmar: usually something like "sudo apt-get install xfce-desktop" but that would install all the programs that are common to the xfce desktop [04:34] hello, someone can help me? xD [04:34] Is there any way to configure what is installed with Ubuntu? [04:34] some pages cant load on firefox so i use opera [04:34] Josesordo: What do you need help with? [04:34] Some way to modify what packages get installed perhaps [04:34] ok try to enable networking and try if going closer to the AP works [04:34] unkmar: that would not replace gdm, just the window manager after you logged in.

[04:42] THX [04:42] Jeremified: well, I installed ubuntu 9.04 amd64..its ok atm...but when I wanted to load Windows Vista (to play for example)..the damn grub dont load the windows [04:42] sudo blkid [04:42] mojo: lookup randr & xrandr [04:42] whoops srry all [04:42] mojo xorg.conf is now dynamic [04:43] wrektjet, sudo blkid and paste output [04:43] half the *fun* on linux is reconfiguring xorg.conf [04:43] anyone ///virtualbox [04:43] Josesordo: First, do you know which hd and partition vista is on (i.e. sda3)? [04:43] jtholmes: http://paste.ubuntu.com/160407/ [04:43] jtholmes: then can you tell me how to enable UXA extension? the doc said modification for xorg.conf is required [04:43] Is there anything like Sysinstall on FreeBSD for Linux? [04:43] didn't they break xorg.conf configuring? [04:43] timob, and the other 1/2 is making it work :) [04:44] Is there an issue when upgrading to 9.0.4 where wireless just stops working? [04:44] mojo i cannot but perhaps someone else will help you [04:44] i'm having a problem starting irb on jaunty, can someone help me out please? http://pastebin.com/m31f0d76b [04:44] wrektjet, hold on [04:44] so anyone know a better video card thatll go in place of an ATI® Rage Mobility™-M1 8mb video ram on an old vaio [04:44] mojo I can help you [04:44] jtholmes: " bzr branch FROM_LOCATION [TO_LOCATION] [04:44] It sees my wireless card. I just can't see any networks or connect to any. [04:45] can anyone PUHLEEEZ explain this flashplayer bug when going from 8.10 to 9.04? [04:45] Jeremified: sda2 [04:45] khensthoth: PM please [04:45] * wrektjet is not going anywhere [04:45] DonDoitle: closest is dpkg-reconfigure on a debian system... redhat systems for instance have 'setup' though, and suse systems have a yast ncurses interface... depends on the distro [04:45] ok, new question. I've installed openbox. Which should I choose to keep it lightweight? Gnome/Openbox or Openbox Session? [04:45] !find irb [04:45] Found: irb, irb1.8, irb1.9 [04:45] hi, i remember red hat linux had a feature where the little icons on the task bar could get grouped together, e.g. if you had ten xterms open, you'd get one icon saying xterm(10) instead of ten icons. is there a way to do that with ubuntu/gnome ? [04:46] klak: for what it's worth, flash works just fine for me in 9.04 [04:46] !find irb [04:46] Found: irb, irb1.8, irb1.9 [04:46] unkmar: umm, probably try the openbox session [04:46] ghoti: how do you install it ? [04:46] How can I install a GUI? [04:46] sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop [04:47] wrektjet, ok heres what u hav [04:47] GUI's are elite? [04:47] <|dthacker|> Elite: what do you have installed now? [04:47] ah alright fde thanks [04:47] klak: sudo apt-get install flashplugin-installer did it for me [04:47] hi [04:47] its installed ghoti [04:47] wrektjet, /boot is the enormous 450G and the OS is on the 16G [04:47] solrize: on the separator for the Window List, right click and choose "Preferences", there you'll see an option "Group Windows when space is limited" and another "Always group windows" ... you want the latter probably [04:47] wrektjet, so [04:48] wrektjet, cd to /mnt [04:48] jtholmes: see this whole thing stemmed from me telling you /root instead of /boot sorry [04:48] how do i get a UUID from a device block? i swapped out a dvd rw for a blu-ray drive on my buddies laptop, and now it won't mount, but its recognized, this is because the new drive has a new UUID so i need to change the UUID in /etc/fstab correct? but i can't find the UUID for /dev/scd0 [04:48] i'm havin toubles with ubuntu 9.04. I can't get it shut down the pc [04:48] solrize: (so the gap between show desktop and the first task bar entry is where you want to right click) [04:48] just upgraded from 8.10 to 9.04 and all i get are tracebacks when booting normal, boot to recovery I can get root shell. Any ideas how to fix this? Is it Xorg problem? [04:48] fde, thanks. um, where's the Window List? [04:48] wrektjet, that is ok [04:48] jtholmes: btw importamt can i do this in the livecd [04:48] oh i see [04:48] solrize: Window List is gnome-speak for Taskbar [04:48] can anyone PUHLEEEZ explain this flashplayer bug when going from 8.10 to 9.04? [04:48] wrektjet, that is the only way u should do it [04:49] k [04:49] klak: care to explain the issue? [04:49] thanks!! it works [04:49] wrektjet, cd /mnt [04:49] So can anyone tell me if shrinking my primary ext4 partition will harm anything? I'm definitely not using all 249 GB right now. [04:49] klak: maybe try dpkg-reconfigure flashplugin* ? [04:49] is there any cpu cooling software in ubuntu ? [04:49] fde its telling me to install the latest flash edition [04:49] jtholmes: "05:01 < jtholmes> bullgard4, downloads the ubuntu-documents files to the current directory" <- Does it create a new directory ~/ubuntu-docs and puts 'the ubuntu-document files' there? [04:49] billybigrigger: sudo dumpe2fs -h /dev/sdb1 |grep UUI [04:49] klak - i ahd problem. check that only one flash plugin is enabled via synaptec maybe? [04:49] D [04:49] timob, thanks [04:49] Jeremified: ext4 tries to stay unfragmented, so it should be less dangerous than on an ext3 system [04:49] ATI® Rage Mobility™-M1 + emerald = fail? y doesnt it run emerald? [04:49] klak: then do it? [04:50] Anybody know where can i paste the screenshots just like messages in http://paste.ubuntu.com [04:50] What does ext4 add? [04:50] bullgard4, not that i know of so you may want to start with a clean directory b 4 executing that command [04:50] jtholmes: i know u r helping a bunch of people at once so its cool [04:50] jtholmes: but im ready when u r [04:50] wrektjet, r u n /mnt [04:50] r u in / [04:50] jtholmes: yes [04:50] fde: I'm guessing a livecd partition manager doesn't automatically move any files that would otherwise be cut off? [04:50] ru in /mnt [04:50] ok [04:50] klak, what's telling you to install the latest version? [04:51] execut ls /boot do you get not found [04:51] Jeremified: nope [04:51] * chaoman just wants to scare his parents with ubuntu looking exactly like vista [04:51] <|dthacker|> albataylor: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ext4 [04:51] jtholmes: Hm. I will do some more enquiry. -- Thank you. [04:51] jtholmes: nope i get an output [04:51] Running Openbox, From gnome I had connected to my WPA wireless during a previous boot. Isn't that called the network-manager applet in the panel. Is there a simple method to use something like that from openbox? [04:51] wrektjet, sorry just ls boot no slash just ls boot [04:51] bullgard4, sure [04:52] Thanks dthacker [04:52] jtholmes: no output [04:52] |dthacker|, I have nothing installed right now [04:52] jtholmes: just goes to ythe next line and prompts [04:52] how do i get the flashplugin package? its not in synaptic. [04:52] some body can help me plis?? [04:52] wrektjet, good, execute very carefully sudo mkdir boot [04:53] papi_: What's the problem? [04:53] wat is it papi_ [04:53] <|dthacker|> Elite: Ubuntu comes with a Graphical User Interface (GUI) called Gnome [04:53] i can not shut down thw pc [04:53] im on 64 bit way [04:53] klak: flashplugin-installer should take care of it for you. if dpkg-reconfigure didn't do it, try 'sudo apt-get --reinstall install flashplugin-installer' [04:53] Why does pidgin and evolution load under one icon? [04:53] mkdir: cannot create directory `boot': File exists [04:53] press pwr button, not hold, just tap, and click shutdown [04:53] i want to make a bootable xubuntu [9.04] flash drive in order to install it on an eee and i was wondering if i can simply mount the iso on my desktop and copy the contents over to the flash drive./? [04:53] how can i find out what is failing when trying to boot to 9.04 after upgrade from 8.10 ? [04:54] wrektjet, ls -l boot do you get output === badsfriend is now known as bads [04:54] it boots to ubuntu graphical screen, then drops graphics and goes into text mode do traceback [04:54] total 0 [04:54] papi_: if you absolutely have to shut down, and cannot use a software shutdown but don't want to risk losing data, do this: [04:54] jtholmes: total 0 [04:54] albataylor, to minimize the things you have in your indication area. [04:55] i do but it exit from the graphical mode ando doesnt shut down [04:55] I guess that makes sense. [04:55] wrektjet, execute pwd what do u get [04:55] why cant i zap the x server? [04:55] Alt+SysRq+S, Alt+SysRq+E, Alt+SysRq+S, Alt+SysRq+I, Alt+SysRq+S, Alt+SysRq+U, Alt+SysRq+B [04:55] thanks ghoti [04:55] albataylor you could set pidgin to display a seperate icon [04:55] klak: np [04:55] hey [04:55] how? [04:55] jtholmes: /mnt ;) [04:55] how can I launch the network manager from CLI? [04:55] the ;) was my own [04:56] gartral: apt-get install dontzap && dontzap -d [04:56] albataylor, in Pidgin [04:56] That will basically emulate a normal shutdown, as long as you make sure to take about a 5 second pause between each magic sysrq call. [04:56] !dontzap [04:56] 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 ». The combination Alt+SysRq+K can also be used to obtain a similar effect. [04:56] do u go into command line when attempting to shutdown [04:56] wrektjet, ls -l and paste pls [04:56] Show Systray Always? [04:56] Jeremified what is it SysRq?? [04:56] albataylor Yup! [04:56] papi_: the "windows logo" key [04:56] papi_: It's the same key as PrintScreen [04:56] The notification thing dies half the time anyways [04:57] jtholmes: http://paste.ubuntu.com/160414/ [04:57] gartral: ur thinkin super key [04:57] wrektjet, cd /mnt/boot [04:57] albataylor I just disabled the Indicator Applet alltogether [04:58] What somebody needs to fix is when you click on the pidgin notification while the window is behind another window it should bring it to the front instead of minimizing it causing you to click on it a second time. === pyro_ is now known as ryzler === ryzler is now known as Kryzler [04:58] i do, doesn't hapening nothing [04:58] wrektjet, ?? [04:58] jtholmes: k. [04:58] albataylor. Good idea =) [04:59] wrektjet, pwd does it print /mnt/boot [04:59] I mean if I'm clicking on the systray surely i'm not trying to minimize it. [04:59] jtholmes: ubuntu@ubuntu:/mnt/boot$ [04:59] papi_: The magic sysrq keys might be disabled on your system [04:59] if you go into command line during shutdown attempt, type sudo shutdown now [04:59] jtholmes: yes indeed [04:59] i think so [04:59] wrektjet, ls -la anything other than . and .. [05:00] how can enable it? [05:00] I'm trying to get Ubuntu 9.04 to run in Sun VirtualBox. But it freezes everytime I select "Install" or "Try without a change to your computer" [05:00] Any ideas why its crashing? [05:00] Hey, I'm looking for someone to confirm a flaw in 9.04, anyone have 2 ubuntu computers on the same lan? [05:00] yay, now, when i restart my x server, my tray applets get jumbled even though their locked... wtf.... [05:00] evilaim: I do [05:00] papi_: I'm not sure, but if you're not able to shutdown, you probably don't have permission to enable the sysrq keys either [05:00] evilaim: I do. [05:01] wrektjet, what did ls -l output [05:01] jtholmes: yea these two lines : http://paste.ubuntu.com/160417/ [05:01] can u pm me plz? [05:01] anyone, more the marrier [05:01] wrektjet, ok [05:01] I want to bug test this [05:01] wrektjet, hold on [05:01] papi_: do you has root or sudo [05:01] evilaim: I did. Tyring to get my wireless up again. [05:01] !pm > evilaim [05:01] evilaim, please see my private message [05:01] wrektjet, perfect [05:01] jtholmes that was outoput to ls -la, ls -l returned 0 [05:01] wrektjet, now mkdir /mnt2 [05:01] any 1 know what it would take to get a game I'm developing into the Ubuntu repos, maybe for 9.10? [05:02] <|dthacker|> Wavesonics: it needs to be packaged first [05:02] wrektjet, then execute mount /dev/sda6 /mnt2 [05:02] !pm > ghoti [05:02] ghoti, please see my private message [05:02] jtholmes: there was no output to mkdir /mnt2is that ok? [05:02] |dthacker| i know, working on that actually as we speak, but once it's packaged, is there some sort of submision process? [05:03] anyone using an intel core i7 here? [05:03] <|dthacker|> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PackagingGuide/Complete [05:03] Is anyone experiencing Firefox lag in Jaunty?

[05:03] wrektjet, yes now execute mount /dev/sda6 /mnt2 [05:03] yo [05:03] I opened archive manager on a .iso and it took all my hard drive space, where did it store it? [05:04] <|dthacker|> Wavesonics: I think you'll find the info in the guide. It's very complete. If you still have a question, you could ask in #ubuntu-motu [05:04] So I installed ubuntu 9.04 on my friends laptop. Toshiba Satellite that windows had been hammered with malware. Well she came to me asking for ubuntu to be installed. I installed it. She loves it. Said she doesn't get why more people don't use it. Well the next I get a txt saying she get get her lexmark printer to work.

If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) [05:05] wrektjet, ls -l /mnt2 and paste [05:05] ...ok then.

[05:06] wrektjet, perfect [05:07] ganshenmeyongde [05:07] Hi. I'm running a dell inspiron 1420 notebook with intel 945g graphics. I just installed jaunty and twice in the past half hour the computer becomes unresponsive. The cursor moves but nothing responds, there's no hard drive activity, etc. What's going on? [05:08] lufis: did you read the jaunty release notes? There are known intel driver issues. [05:08] dangit [05:08] wrektjet, now, carefully exactly as it is typed execute cp -R /mnt2/* /mnt/boot [05:08] tritium: Dude, it's a final release. It's not like I'm running alphas. You're telling me it has major issues with an incredibly widespread chipset? [05:08] Well... I installed Ubuntu at the 8.10 release. When I did this, I had to run the command "sudo apt-get remove compiz-core" in order for the laptop to boot up. It runs on Intel graphics, which I gather causes the system not to boot up. Now, I can't enable any of the effects, and the Ubuntu splash screen does not show on boot or shutdown (just a blank screen). I have upgraded to 9.04 since then. Any ideas? [05:08] sorry, i lost connection [05:08] wrektjet, tell me when it is done [05:08] but yes i'm sudo [05:09] lufis: dude, you're telling me you didn't read before installing? [05:09] wrektjet, use sudo pls [05:09] I had 3 gigs of free space and I tried to open a file with vlc and archive manager, I have no disk space, how do I get it back? [05:09] tritium: Indeed I did... that's what it said under "known issues" on the alpha's pages. This isn't the alpha. This is the final, with everything updated. [05:09] lufis: you didn't read the release notes, then [05:09] jtholmes: yes done [05:09] Is the best method for supporting virtual domains with Ubuntu+Postfix/Dovecot using mysql database? [05:10] wrektjet, any error msgs? [05:10] ok if i cant get answer to fix 9.04 is there any way to go back to 8.10 ? [05:10] God, I'm so getting a mac. [05:10] only after the first try w/o sudo but with sudo nope [05:10] <|dthacker|> pygmalion: I find it works nicely [05:10] wrektjet, good [05:10] <|dthacker|> pygmalion: you may want to ask in #ubuntu-server [05:10] wrektjet, now execute ls -l /mnt/boot and paste [05:10] |dthacker|: thanks, will do [05:10] is there a way to add a nightly SVN build as a repository in apt? i'm wanting to install the svn snapshot of amarok (since 2.0.2 isn't working nicely for me), but i want it to still be managed through the apt system. any options for me? [05:11] <|dthacker|> tritium: is there a ubottu factoid for the Intel problem? [05:11] dthacker__: let me check [05:11] jtholmes: http://paste.ubuntu.com/160424/ [05:12] jtholmes: sorry. just the bottom. lines 23 and on [05:12] wrektjet, fine we are in good shape [05:12] Why does Ubuntu 9.04 do a kernel re-exec for "restart" instead of a real computer reboot? And how do I change that back to a normal reboot? [05:12] wrektjet, hold on [05:13] hello. I want to check whether it is possible to boot off an external disk with ubuntu on it on a mac. The FAQ on ubuntuforums tells me it isn't possible and I'm hoping that jaunty changed that.... [05:13] * wrektjet is still not going anywhere. take your time [05:13] dthacker__: not that I've found [05:13] <|dthacker|> tritium: thanks for looking, I'll try to find an appropriate link to use. [05:13] hey if anyone has an account on the ubuntu forums, it would be cool if you could help me with this problem http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=7173269#post7173269 not trying to spam or anything, well thank you! [05:14] wrektjet, ok hav you used any of the linux editors yet? [05:14] dthacker__: no problem [05:14] jtholmes: like text editors? [05:15] wrektjet, did you change your nickname [05:15] Does anyone know off hand if Ubuntu 9.04 is supported by Virtualbox [05:15] jtholmes: no still here [05:16] ViRii[K], yes fully we tested it a lot in VB [05:16] jtholmes: sorry. do u mean nano? [05:16] Ubuntu as a guest or host? [05:16] wrektjet, i am going to pvt msg you do you know how to accept PM [05:16] <|dthacker|> shriphani: 3 mins of googling tells me you could be in for a long haul to do that. [05:16] jtholmes: go 4 it [05:16] jtholmes: Hm, any idea why it would freeze when Installing or trying to boot Ubuntu? [05:16] I can freely move around but as soon as I hit enter, nothing happens [05:17] I installed 8.10 on my lappy, and I have to remove compiz-core in order for it to boot. I recently upgraded to 9.04, and reinstalled compiz-core and all related packages. Now, here's my problem: I cannot enable any visual effects, and the splash screen does not show on boot or shutdown (just goes blank during that time). Any ideas? [05:17] ViRii[K], non afaik we never had any bug reports on that at all [05:17] Hrm, alright. [05:17] Gotta be user error [05:17] I was never able to enable visual effects, for the record. [05:17] is there a way to add a nightly SVN build as a repository in apt? i'm wanting to install the svn snapshot of amarok (since 2.0.2 isn't working nicely for me), but i want it to still be managed through the apt system. any options for me? am i going to have to manually compile it myself? [05:18] Maybe we should create a spinoff distro called Ubunchu! complete with Japanese anime wallpaper and desktop sounds ;-) [05:19] Is anyone here dual-booting 9.04 with another OS? [05:19] or Ubentai :D [05:19] Johndoe, gee I wonder that would have ;-) [05:20] How come it says I have 11.9 GB free and but nautilus says I have 0 GB free?

[05:24] k thanks [05:24] should htis work? sudo mount -o movie.iso /media/cdrom0 [05:24] NOD62: and actually, GNU started in 1994 [05:24] when i restart my x server, my tray applets get jumbled even though their locked... [05:24] 1984* [05:24] Elite: what do you mean? ubuntu comes with GNOME by default [05:25] fde: Oh, whoops. [05:25] xD [05:25] 1991. [05:25] list [05:25] is xorg.conf after upgrade to 9.04 supposed to be pretty empty? [05:25] My apologies. [05:25] lnb_: yes [05:25] I'm having trouble installing the drivers for my NVIDIA GeForce 9800GT running SLI. Every time I do X wont load when I restart my comp. Can anybody help me with this? [05:25] there is a problem with running Xorg -configure [05:25] ok it seams my headers are wrong? [05:25] ekimmargni, I have the server edition and wish to install a GUI [05:25] dont u guys hate when your disc die on you [05:26] i think i cannot boot to graphical mode is a xorg problem [05:26] Actually the linux kernel was started in 1991. [05:26] Elite: which GUI? [05:26] ah, well then... but I have no idea :) [05:26] meoblast001: You forgot the loop. mount -o loop movie.iso [05:26] i put envyNG on my system. but it says 'Error EnvyNG has detected that the headers for your kernel are missing and cannot be installed' [05:26] ismarc: ahh.. thanks [05:26] is there a way to go back to 8.04 ? [05:26] fde: anything [05:26] without reinstalling [05:26] hello,everyone [05:26] Elite: Gnome? KDE? Something lighter? [05:27] If you compare where linux is in 2009 to where windows was in 1999 (comparative age) we are doing pretty well. [05:27] join ubuntu-us-az [05:27] fde: either or whichever I can get from the cd [05:27] voss: were lightyears ahead of microsoft in compared age [05:27] Elite: the CD will have ubuntu-desktop ... install that === Yossi__ is now known as Yossi [05:28] ekimmargni: What about resetting the Ethernet connection entirely from the terminal. Wouldn't this serve as a quick fix? [05:28] voss: Or compare to where BSD was in 1992 [05:28] gartral, linux really only got its act together in the past year or two. [05:28] Elite: sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop [05:28] ismarc, BSD doesnt count its dead you know ;-) [05:28] ekimmargni: At least so I didn't have to keep booting in order to get internet? [05:28] NOD62: no clue (I switched from windows about a week ago, so... yeah) [05:28] FDE: HOW? [05:28] voss: not the case at all, I have been using Linux since 98 or so, it was good back then [05:29] oops sorry about the caps [05:29] Elite: umm... sudo aptitude install ubuntu-desktop [05:29] fde, linux has only become general public ready in the last year or so, before that it was a techie o/s [05:29] voss: granted you actually had to get your hands dirty then, but I actually prefer it to how things are now. [05:30] ekimmargni: Perhaps, a simple sudo dhclient would suffice. [05:30] ekimmargni: I have yet to test this. [05:30] voss: ive *always* had good luck with zenwalk, and its a rather stripped back linux [05:30] anyone play diablo 2 lol [05:30] noobtux: -offtopic. xD [05:30] fde, ubuntu netbook remix for instance is so user friendly that most netbook users will never have to use a command line. [05:30] voss: I would like to disagree completely. The Linux kernel (ie, Linux) has been solid and usable for a decade. User-space applications to make it easy as a general Desktop have come a long ways in the past 5 years though [05:30] srry i random [05:31] how do i know which header package to install? [05:31] voss: how is netbook remix different from just running desktop? [05:31] likwid: uhh, you want linux-headers for your kernel... look at uname -r to see what kernel you have [05:31] How does one restart X? [05:31] ekimmargni: it has an entirely different interface similar to cell phones and stuff [05:31] ekimmargni: its just friendlier for a small screen [05:31] oh, gross [05:31] ekim, netbooks have fewer options so less stuff to go wrong. [05:31] ok great [05:32] is 9.04 ... kernel 2.6.27-7-generic ? [05:32] ekim it also has a very cute interface [05:32] ekimmargni: /etc/init.d/gdm restart ... [05:32] fde: once installed how do I start the ubuntu-desktop? [05:32] how come i see linux-headers-2.6.28.11 [05:32] Elite: /etc/init.d/gdm start [05:32] hi [05:32] In UNR everything is pretty much ready all you have to do is go get some apps you want and your off and running [05:33] likwid: because that is the current kernel in jaunty? [05:33] I have installed Ubuntu 9.04 and have notice the slowness of graphics!!! Xorg is taking up 30% of my cpu and beagle-helper is taking up 15% to 20% of my cpu... thats on avarage 50% of my cpu!!! can anyone please help me before i have to back to vista witch ran just fine.... I am a nuwby to linux and have liked it so far but now I am stuck with this problem. [05:33] * fde wonders why they didn't go to 2.6.29... ugh [05:33] crud, my laptop just froze. [05:33] http://pastebin.com/f7ab4a662 something has changed in the upgrade to 9.04 [05:33] you also don't have some unneeded programs. Like no disc burning programs, they don't do you any good when you don't have a CD rom ;-) [05:34] I have been problems with update-notifier! It doesnt show me any updates. Does anybody is having this problem too? [05:34] i do have jaunty.. 9.04 but my kernel shows as 2.6.27-7-generic [05:34] My sound doesnt work anymore after applying todays system update. Can anyone help? [05:34] heimark, actually they do have them most netbook users never use them [05:34] likwid: upgrade === [KingKimi] is now known as KingKimi [05:34] TTxT: It's not much help, but it's been working fine for me! === Taris_Wolftaur is now known as Taris [05:34] Is it possible to install Windows drivers for a webcam and run the webcam in wine? [05:34] fde: hmmm for some reason it doesn't want to install from the cd it wanted to install from online downloading [05:35] Can anyone help me with installing my video card driver. I think I know how, but Xorg wont start after I install [05:35] likwid: you grub menu.lst may not have been updated correctly [05:35] glu, which webcam do you have? [05:35] i'm so confused... but i did update. i was on 8.10 this morning and upgraded to 9.04 [05:35] Elite: there is no GUI's on the server install CD [05:35] voss: burning programs of CD roms? [05:35] gluonman: in some cases [05:35] ghoti: thanks [05:35] In windows when i clicked the scroll button down it would open up a scroller in firefox [05:35] How do i do this in ubuntu? [05:35] Elite: servers should never have GUI's [05:35] wasted resources [05:35] voss: because I dont' see either on mine [05:35] voss, I have a Logitech QuickCam Express Plus [05:35] heimark, some netbook users have external cd-rom burners [05:35] how about vino? do u know if they found a solution? [05:35] Froad, in which cases? I suppose it depends on the cam. [05:36] Dday: uhh, you just use the wheel to scroll down :/ [05:36] glu, have you tried just using your cam in ubuntu 9.04 my logitech one didnt work in 8.10 but it does not. [05:36] now [05:36] I don't like using the wheel [05:36] FDE: its on a dial up connection serving files to me only not really wasting a whole lot, now if it was online that would be different [05:36] voss, oh. I almost forgot about the upgrade! I'm actually going to go ahead and do that before I do anything. Thanks. [05:36] Elite: why isn't it online? [05:37] fde: I am on dial up [05:37] generally the only way to know is to try gluonman [05:37] What do I do if /etc/init.d/gdm restart gives me * Starting GNOME Display Manager... [fail] [05:37] My sound doesnt work anymore after applying todays system update. Can anyone help? === SvenGnome is now known as SvenVanBro [05:37] ekimmargni: use sudo. [05:38] ubuntu 9.04 is registering some of my single clicks as double clicks (with my mouse). it is driving me crazy. why? [05:38] ekimmargni: you loook in /var/log/Xorg.0.log and gdm.log and see what went wrong [05:38] glu, I have my logitech webcame working with skype now [05:38] arash: do you have a standars usb mouse? [05:38] Froad: yes [05:38] Dday: Go to Edit->Preferences->Advanced->General. Now, under the "Browsing" section, check the "Use autoscrolling" box. This will enable the middle-click scrolling that you want. [05:38] Ty ismarc [05:38] err, helps if I get the right menu stuff [05:38] I am getting failed to load module "vnc" in my xorg log [05:39] why won't vnc load [05:39] that's like firefox 2. something I think [05:39] arash: check the driver, although I have no specific advice other than try a different mouse? [05:39] lemme run firefox 3 real quick [05:39] works just fine in my centos [05:39] fde: I am on dial up [05:39] Tools->Advanced [05:39] then check "Use autoscrolling" [05:39] Elite: so you said... what do you expect me to say to that? [05:39] Dday: ok, failing today, Tools->Options->Advanced [05:40] I dunno I didn't know if it went through [05:40] ismarc: what you said first is correct [05:40] Should I use debian instead? [05:40] hi, i'm attempting to install the new firefox beta, having trouble. i've untarred the .tar.bz2 folder. now what do i do? [05:40] My sound doesnt work anymore after applying todays system update. Can anyone help? [05:40] galvanize: google for firefox 3.1 ppa and use that instead [05:40] ismarc, this is in firefox right? [05:40] Dday: yes [05:41] fde: what is that? [05:41] ugh so how do i upgrade the kernel [05:41] <_ester_> hello, why duplicate and freeze keys (enter, space) in virtualbox (OS: ubuntu & devian)?! [05:41] galvanize: it is a read-packaged firefox beta [05:41] There is no options in the tools tab [05:41] galvanize: ppa = personal package archive... it is where developers throw stuff that isn't going to be going into the repos [05:41] My sound doesnt work anymore after applying todays system update. Can anyone help? [05:42] fde: oh ok, thanks will give it a look [05:42] Whats the difference between ubuntu and debian? [05:42] galvanize: https://launchpad.net/~fta/+archive/ppa [05:42] ubuntu is based upon it voss [05:42] fde: Hrm, 3.0 has edit->preferences, 3.5b4 has tools->options [05:42] fde: thanks [05:42] !debian > voss [05:42] voss, please see my private message [05:42] <_ester_> hello, why duplicate and freeze keys (enter, space) in virtualbox (OS: ubuntu & debian)?! === Ciros_ is now known as Ciros [05:42] why oh why do they gotta change around menus for no reason [05:43] hi, i installed Jaunty (desktop) and test it behind DMZ, I can't ping any site. [05:43] why can't I get vnc to load in xorg.conf [05:43] undefined symbol: NumCurrentSelection [05:43] My sound doesnt work anymore after applying todays system update. Can anyone help? [05:43] voss: Ubuntu basically takes Debian Sid, recompiles it with their tool chain (gcc, glibc, etc) and ships it along with their own xorg and gnome amongst other things... Ubuntu is actually responsible for very little in the grand scheme of things though [05:44] i can ping other comp in DMZ, but not the router. [05:44] now i can scare my parents [05:44] voss: which makes the attention it gets quite comical... for instance the only thing originating from Canonical/Ubuntu that is new in Jaunty is the notification stuff... and the indicator-applet is already annoying me [05:44] think of Ubuntu as a different CSS template for Debian [05:44] kwak most routers would probably not respond to ping from a box in the DMZ [05:44] ismarc: lol, what? [05:44] If I have a .MDS file, how do I check it? [05:45] daftykins: ok, that would be acceptable, but i can't ping any site (internet) [05:45] no response. [05:45] Could someone help me figure out a USB wireless adapter? It's the Linksys WUSB54GC, which is supposedly fully supported. (I'm on 8.10 currently btw) It shows up in 'lsusb', but not in 'ifconfig -a'. [05:45] so are my kernels mismatched? [05:45] how do I get my vnc to load [05:45] Miesco: man md5sum [05:45] When I resume from suspend w/ fglrx and desktop effects enabled, the system basically hangs [05:45] Just upgraded to Jaunty last night... Man is it f'n fast... I am having 1 minor thing (besides usplash image not working, which I expected that) my desktop background image is black.. I suspect Compiz, but not sure.. Any thoughts? [05:45] fde: I did, but I dont know what to check it against [05:45] likwid: yes, once is 2.6.27 the other is 2.6.28... [05:45] w/o desktop effects, everything resumes fine [05:45] fde: It's just a running joke at work, that 'Debian based' distro's are the same as changing CSS templates to web pages [05:45] What is the address of the Mozilla IRC net (analogous to address = "irc.ubuntu.com" for Freenode)? [05:45] I have installed Ubuntu 9.04 and have notice the slowness of graphics!!! Xorg is taking up 30% of my cpu and beagle-helper is taking up 15% to 20% of my cpu... thats on avarage 50% of my cpu!!! can anyone please help me before i have to back to vista witch ran just fine.... I am a newby to linux and have liked it so far but now I am stuck with this problem. [05:45] Miesco: the md5sum that came with the iso image, probably [05:46] same basic stuff, but all the things the user sees look different [05:46] so how do i update? reinstall using synaptic package manager? [05:46] fde: i don't know which packages to install [05:46] kwak sounds like your network configuration could be wrong. do you have a DNS server IP in /etc/resolv.conf and a default route out via your router? [05:46] checking [05:46] likwid: your update-manager should be notifying you of the release of jaunty... if you've already done that, restart so the new kernel is used [05:46] bullgard4: um, irc.mozilla.org [05:47] fde: do i have to download each package individually? [05:47] i have restarted, i updated to jaunty this morning [05:47] tonyyarusso: Thank you for answering. -- What does the interjection 'um' mean? [05:47] fde: So I do md5sum *.iso, and md5sum *.MDS? [05:47] galvanize: just installing firefox-3.1 from there should be enough, although I haven't actually looked at the archive, hold on [05:48] bullgard4, it means thinking [05:48] daftykins: there is default route. [05:48] galvanize: yeah, it's just 'sudo aptitude install firefox-3.1' once you've enabled that ppa [05:48] daftykins: Thank you. [05:48] fde: ah ok thank you. [05:48] Hey ppl. [05:49] i have a windows server also in the DMZ, it's working fine. but my two ubuntu machines are not [05:49] I was about to perform a online upgrade of a running 8.10 desktop. [05:49] kwak DNS server IP in /etc/resolv.conf ? [05:49] daftykins: Is 'um' equivalent to 'hm'? [05:49] exactly, bullgard4 [05:49] woot i fixed my sound without any of ur guys help, thx for nothing! [05:49] daftykins: Ah, thank you very much. [05:49] rudeness is not appreciated to those who help for free, MaGicMaX [05:49] can I do-release-upgrade just like I did for 8.04 to 8.10 ? [05:50] MaGicMaX: well, the goal of most IRC support channels is to ensure most can do it themselves, so you see, it was a success :P [05:50] the DNS server in pointing to the DMZ interface on the router. [05:50] ChienNoir, yes, if you're on Intrepid now you can upgrade via the same method as you used previously no doubt [05:50] MaGicMaX: You're welcome for us allowing you to explore and learn on your own so that the assistance of others becomes less and less necessary [05:50] ChienNoir: sure [05:50] is [05:50] is it a valid DNS server kwak ? [05:50] kwak try "nslookup google.com" [05:50] whoami [05:51] * fde asks that almost daily [05:51] however, i would like to thank LordRaiden for this post http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=205449 [05:51] yes it is. [05:51] ok so i just restarted and i got some message about nvidia === Z3ro3X_ is now known as Z3ro3X [05:51] do you get a correct response from nslookup kwak? [05:52] daftykins: yes, it showed the DNS IP of my ISP [05:52] then the addresses of google.com [05:52] google.com [05:52] likwid: take it your nvidia drivers aren't from the archive? [05:52] what happens when you try "ping google.com" kwak? does it work? [05:52] how to set passwd for char id? [05:52] release 9.04 (jaunty), kernel linux 2.6.27-7-generic, GNOME 2.26.1 [05:53] grrr [05:53] fde: take the drivers from where? [05:53] nope. [05:53] likwid: no, I'm asking you where you got them [05:53] likwid: it didn't update your kernel though, so it's irrelevant [05:53] kwak what kind of router do you have and how did you specify DMZ? [05:54] kwak: does it give "ping: unknown host google.com" or does it give "PING google.com (209.85.171.100) 56(84) bytes of data." and just sit there? [05:54] fde: i go to system > administration > hardware drivers [05:54] daftykins: i'm used a linux gateway/router. [05:54] is the DMZ section a separate network card kwak? [05:55] justlooks, what? [05:55] For some reason, when I open update-manager, it isn't showing me the upgrade to 9.04. What can I do to upgrade? [05:55] fde: i see 2 options NVIDIA version 180 (recommended) and NVIDIA version 173.... i hit activate.. i put my password and it just comes up , flickers and just shows the hardware drivers window. nothing goes green, nothing gets activated [05:55] how to se passwd for char id ---> [05:55] gluonman, try hitting alt+f2 then typing "gksudo update-manager -d" [05:55] gluonman, just google "upgrade jaunty" [05:55] daftykins, I'll give that a try. [05:55] justlooks, what do you mean char id? [05:56] i type /ns reg passwd [05:56] daftykins, that worked. Thank you. [05:56] no problem gluonman [05:56] but it not work [05:56] justlooks, sorry not understanding. passwd sets passwords though [05:57] fde: i installed EnvyNG and i get this message when i try to apply..

[06:06] yes [06:06] Miesco: that's rather large [06:06] i [06:06] and I have an XFS partition, so no fsck [06:06] justlooks: don't use that. See /msg nickserv help set password [06:06] justlooks: setpass is only used in combination with password reset keys sent by email [06:06] How come my .MDS file is binary? [06:06] i'm running the ubuntu livecd and wireless is not enabled, i'v tried all i can think of. why is wireless not enabled automaticly? [06:07] cvw: I sit corrected. Looking into it for you. [06:07] ok, Amarok just gave me an error message talking about my playback device and was defaulting back to pulse audio [06:07] broadcom 43xx network cards are a bit underpowered for my tastes , I prefer atheros chipsets [06:07] thx [06:07] xfs_check dies "unable to initalize XFS library" [06:07] hi all [06:07] justlooks: also, #freenode is better for questions about freenode and its services [06:07] Anybody know why pdftex doesn't seem to work? [06:08] does anyone know about my problem? [06:08] frenzy, what wireless card do you have? [06:08] howdy, can anyone recommend a tool for mass creation, or even something which will accept a plaintext password on the cmdline and shadow it? useradd is not quite doing enough and i'm having trouble using pw generated from makepasswd [06:08] it's built in [06:08] i need to create 10k accounts with username as password for automated testing in a private network. [06:09] frenzy, what model is your computer [06:09] lenovo t60 IBM [06:09] I'm dead. [06:10] bitmonk: openssl passwd -1 [06:10] not sure how scriptable it'll be though, lemme play around with it [06:11] anyone? [06:11] frenzy, intel wireless cards generally are supported. which ubuntu version are you using? [06:11] ismarc: really? openssl is used for shadow pw? [06:11] can you put things on pastebin via terminal? [06:11] the most recent [06:11] I've yet to find a solution for the reason sound playback doesnt work on jaunty for me [06:11] the best other suggestion i'm getting which i already know and am just trying to avoid is to use expect and passwd ;d [06:12] Dday: I think you can by piping output into pastebinit [06:12] bitmonk: it technically isn't, but [06:12] frenzy, how do you know its not working? [06:12] the wireless logo shows up but it says "wireless is disabled" [06:12] is it just me or Open Office 3 does not have icons? [06:12] !info pastebinit | Dday [06:12] Dday: pastebinit (source: pastebinit): command-line pastebin client. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.11.2-0ubuntu1 (jaunty), package size 21 kB, installed size 344 kB [06:12] click on the wireless logo [06:13] i did [06:13] Joy, the recent update to firefox broke it. [06:13] does it give you an option to enable it? [06:13] or create a new network [06:13] cvw: all the info I'm finding says sudo apt-get dist-upgrade should do it, but it'll only do it if all your installed packages are up to date. [06:13] bitmonk: passwd and shadow files are in very specific formats, so you can generate the files, then drop them in place [06:14] Also is your router broadcasting the ssid [06:14] ghoti: looks like I'll have to do it manually - trying to avoid that to avoid any "gotchas" [06:14] i can get to the network connections dialog [06:14] cvw: I hear you. Best of luck! [06:14] help my X server won't start, my X.org log says it can't detect my screens" and i'm posting some pastebins of my issue: http://paste.ubuntu.com/160445/ & http://paste.ubuntu.com/160446/ [06:14] ghoti: ty [06:15] is anybody experiencing problems with the 3.0.10 firefox upgrade? it's refusing to start in my computer [06:15] i mean everything are just works, save open etc are words. [06:15] grego restart your computer [06:15] how much space is required to install ubuntu. [06:15] words* [06:15] greg: yes [06:15] greg: Mine comes up with an annoying window [06:15] how do i reset xorg from ssh console? [06:15] int256: I'd advise at least 6GB or so, more if you want to install a lot of applications [06:15] grego, it may need that [06:16] Gartral1: sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart [06:16] gregorovius, did you install it and now firefox won't open? [06:16] Why should you need to reboot for firefox? [06:16] I tried the wiki, is the broadcom 4311 chipset for a, b and g /sbin/iwlist s claim wlan0 gets no results [06:16] daftykins, indeed [06:16] daftykins: I have the same problem [06:16] $ firefox [06:16] Bus error [06:16] grego: Mine is not quite that error. [06:16] tried reinstalling, no dice [06:16] gregorovius, try "sudo apt-get purge firefox && sudo apt-get install firefox" [06:16] daftykins: I tried that [06:16] grego, also restart your computer [06:17] ghoti: i have 7.8gb free space in my C: drive. ok ? [06:17] voss: Who heard of restarting a LINUX computer because of an application install? [06:17] int256: are you planning on using wubi to install, or partitioning? [06:17] lws is your error the "Bus error" the same as gregorovius ? [06:17] lws, it doesnt make sense but it works [06:17] wubi ?? [06:17] ismarc: i know that, but i've tried generating the hash for shadow more than one way, and the accounts do not work. i've even tried using useradd and passing the hash in, as it doesn't accept a clear password and shadow it for you. [06:17] I'll try restarting first, just in case, if that doesn't work I'll try purging, brb [06:17] daftykins: No. It pops up with an assertion dialog: "ASSERT: **** Search: _installLocation: engine has no file!" [06:17] ghoti: wubi ?? [06:17] still not working [06:18] tried renaming your ~/.mozilla just in case it's a profile config thing lws? sounds more major i know, but worth a go [06:18] int256: it's a slightly more painless dual-boot that doesn't involve repartitioning your hard drive [06:18] lws, when it upgrades Firefox I often have to reboot the computer, or sometimes just restart the program, to allow everything to work properly. [06:19] ghoti: then i will use wubi. I am now using windows XP. i want to dual boot XP and Ubuntu [06:19] lws, a restart fixes that [06:19] I don't think it's that uncommon, but who am I to say? [06:19] how can i force vesa for xorg [06:19] daftykins: No luck [06:19] int256: that should work nicely; there are only a couple minor caveats to using wubi [06:19] i always close firefox when i see it pop up in updates. let the update go, then start it again. [06:19] rebooting doesn't help [06:19] voss: Why should a restart fix that? Why can't I fix it WITHOUT restarting? [06:20] lws, I dont know [06:20] mainly that you cannot hibernate your Linux install [06:20] lws tried restarting just X? [06:20] daftykins, that fixes it too. [06:20] login at tty1 and type "sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart" [06:20] daftykins: No, I have a bunch of stuff open that I don't want to close. [06:20] daftykins, voss, restarting didn't fix it for me [06:20] Hi ! How can i know wich memory card do i have? (in order to buy a new one) [06:20] grr.. [06:20] anyone else seeing flash videos reset to 0 sec after a few seconds? [06:20] BBIAB [06:21] grego, ok now try a little windex. That fixes everything ;-) [06:21] hi. anybody used banshee for burning CDs? it's supposed to integrate with brasero [06:21] ghoti: that is not a problem. any other problems like system crashing or somthing like that ? [06:21] but i'm not seeing it [06:21] i'm trying to mount an external hard disk attached to a computer on my network (not my computer). the issue is that when i mount it (using sshfs - was working before i formatted) the folder i mounted to disappears. when i check its permissions they've changed to 'root' from what they should be. unmounting doesn't change the permissions (owner etc..) so i use chown to fix it, upon attempting to mount again the folder disappears [06:21] again. with thunar, normal thunar properties on folder and do the mount nothing changes but the folder disappears, however sudo thunar shows the permissions change - any clues? [06:21] if I run it from fish I get fish: Job 1, “firefox” terminated by signal SIGBUS (Misaligned address error) === ohol1ks is now known as chol [06:21] dragging tracks fro banshee makes brasero segfault [06:21] fish? [06:21] doesnt ubuntu use a valid xorg.conf ? [06:21] fish indeed xD [06:21] wtf? [06:21] int256: only if you poweroff the system without shitting it down gracefully; wubi installs are more sensitive to that sort of thing. As long as you shut down normally, you shouldn't have any trouble [06:21] voss, it's a shell [06:22] any luck with purge then? [06:22] gregorovius, ^ [06:22] grego try running it from gnome then once its started then use fish or poker or whatever you want [06:22] ghoti: ok [06:22] how do i enable wireless from the command line [06:23] frenzy422: use iwconfig to put in settings [06:23] * int256 is going to bathroom === dan__ is now known as dannz [06:23] frenzy422: man iwconfig [06:23] frenzy422: you can sudo iwlist scan to scan for aps then enter the information in iwconfig === histo_ is now known as histo [06:23] frenzy open up a command line and type in iwconfig [06:24] daftykins, nope =/ [06:24] Is there a open-nautilus script that is similar to open-terminal except it opens a nautilus window? [06:24] hmm, did it uninstall cleanly gregorovius ? [06:24] anyone able to shed light on my issue? using sshfs to mount an external on another pc changes ownership of the folder its mounted to [06:24] * int256 is back [06:24] and chown only works after unmounting the folder [06:24] daftykins, yes, I purged all related packages, cleaned the cache, redownloaded... [06:25] erk. [06:25] help my X server won't start, my X.org log says it can't detect my screens and i'm posting some pastebins of my issue: http://paste.ubuntu.com/160445/ & http://paste.ubuntu.com/160446/ [06:25] gregorovius, i'd try renaming your ~/.mozilla as well to check it's not profile related. does sound pretty major though. i'm stumped other than that i'm afraid [06:25] likwid: you didnt happen to upgrade to 9.04 did you? [06:26] daftykins, that's the first thing I tried [06:26] yes i upgraded to 9.04 earlier today [06:26] bitmonk: I just tested, and so long as you have a valid group id, and different user id, generating a password with openssl worked perfect when added to the shadow file. So you can just have a test shadow and test passwd files and just copy them into place to enable your test accounts [06:26] how do I find out what /dev/sda6 is mountated on /media/disk? [06:26] likwid: well i just upgraded my notebook and now i can only boot to a shell [06:26] yea i get to the shell [06:26] likwidL i tried apt install xorg... -intel-dbg but its still no good [06:27] lnb_: well i think its a shell.. sort of like DOS? command prompt style. i type exit and it then looks like bios look a like [06:27] likwid: and i cant get Xorg -configure to work as it cant find stuff [06:27] root shell looks like dos shell [06:27] ok, sorry gregorovius i've no idea what to try next [06:28] all my boxes are FreeBSD and they do have a valid xorg.conf in /etc/X11 but on ubuntu the xorg.conf is basically empty [06:28] lnb_: You might give sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg a try [06:29] likwid: if you can get Driver "vesa" in your etc/Xorg.conf it might work [06:29] ismarc: ok will do [06:29] my Xorg went COMPLETELY unresponsive, it ignored two kill commands and the restart from gdm, and it remained active until the machine was rebooted, it just showed the screen it was stuck on, never showed the ubuntu splash before power cycling [06:30] lnb_: xrandr and it's sibling randr run the show now for video setup.. however it can be overridden by creating an xorg with all the needed stuff [06:30] is there exist any way to play a game which requires Shader Model 3 in a board with shader model 2.1 [06:30] hi guys... i tried to do an install of ubuntu 9.04 as a xen instance, but on reboot it hangs with a "rc-default terminated with status 139" error... anyone seen that by chance? [06:30] daftykins, anybody who was the firefox error: reinstalling xulrunner fixed it for me [06:30] s/was/has [06:31] ah nice [06:31] i'll remember that one, cheers [06:31] in any case, crap, that shouldn't happen! [06:31] gregorovius: what error, my system just CRASHED with ff open [06:32] gartral1, did you just upgrade to firefox 3.0.10? [06:32] I had my comp crash after that, and when I restarted it, firefox refused to start with 'bus error' [06:32] i got ubuntu respository in DVD. but how to install from the dvd. [06:32] gregorovius: nope [06:32] gregorovius: wait, i might have [06:32] so does anyone use use pdftex on ubuntu? [06:32] lnb_: i wouldn't know where to add 'vesa' too [06:32] int256, just place the dvd in your tray, restart your computer and go to your boot menu [06:33] is open office 3 really like this on ubuntu, there's no icons. everything are on words? help anyone. [06:33] Mine seems to be missing something important that makes it error out on valid latex files [06:33] gregorovius: no, im running 3.0.9 [06:33] so nobody has any insights into why even though the drivers and firmware are installed and ubuntu is seeing the hardware that I cannot see any wireless networks when I can see 10 from windows? Blame broadcom and dell? [06:33] gartral1, funny, I never got 3.0.9, I had 3.0.8 and it proposed to install 3.0.10 [06:34] Baatti: my mistake, i mean how to install softwares from the DVD [06:34] syntax\: change your theme back to the human theme and see if the icons return.. if they do then it's the theme that borks it.

[07:00] michaelbuckbee: export PATH=$PATH:new-path [07:00] ismarc: do you know how i can get a working xorg.conf so that it will use VESA driver? [07:00] Ismarc: it says this for every folder in the directory [07:01] fair enough [07:01] i need to update my old install scripts for the new packages [07:01] michaelbuckbee: PATH=$PATH:/path/to/new/directory/you/are/adding/to/your/path [07:01] michaelbuckbee: or export PATH=new-path:$PATH [07:01] ghoti: btw, try whatismyip.org, you dont need to format that at all [07:01] Ismarc: my document root is /var/www2/phase3 [07:01] how do i install ms font's on ubuntu [07:01] uhm what channel do I go to to just yell to the mountain tops about the incredible awesomeness of Jaunty [07:02] Ismarc: but when i type in the url, it takes me to /var/www2 [07:02] acoustyk #ubuntu+1 [07:02] danke schoen [07:02] acoustyk: #ubuntu-offtopic [07:02] err off topic even [07:02] acoustyk: #ubuntu+1 is for 9.10 [07:02] ah [07:02] offtopic then [07:02] i am off on my game good lord my brain is gone [07:02] noogie, did you do a sudo service apache2 reload? [07:03] Sneck: after every change [07:03] noogie, kk just checking ;) [07:03] ot, why the hell are the gnome art servers so damn slow... [07:04] can someone shed some light on this? i'm helping someone who has upgraded Intrepid -> Jaunty and it seems their upgrade has gone a tad odd. here's the output of "update-grub"... http://paste.ubuntu.com/160474/ and here's the menu.lst after: http://paste.ubuntu.com/160475/ why has it not added the 2.6.28 kernel that it found? "linux-generic" is up to date and installed ok ? [07:04] noogie, i usually edit the apache2.conf and files in sites-available, but never the httpd.conf.. maybe that's where your problem lies? [07:04] booted up to to 9.04 cdrom and graphics load fine. So question is, if I boot normally, what is the difference between cdrom's xorg and one from upgrade of 8.10 to 9.04 ? [07:04] Snek: I will try that [07:05] noogie: what's under the Directory directive for your DocumentRoot? [07:05] lnb_: the upgrade may have tried to preserve some settings you had made pre-upgrade [07:05] noogie: oh, and should probably make sure, you're running Apache 2.2, correct? [07:05] [07:05] Options FollowSymLinks [07:05] AllowOverride all [07:05] [07:05] noogie: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. [07:05] Options FollowSymLinks AllowOverride all [07:05] sorry [07:05] noogie, it seems httpd conf is used more on redhat/fedora/centos and debian based distro's tend to use apache2.conf [07:05] * Baatti pats noogie consolingly [07:06] ghoti: i didnt tell it to save anything old [07:06] snek: apache2.conf should be importing httpd.conf [07:06] lnb_: try sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg [07:06] ismarc, yes it should, but there's no need to touch it really [07:06] ismarc: thats what i thought [07:06] i tried that and it said not installed [07:06] im gonna try to edit apache2.conf [07:07] lnb_: that might be the problem. Try sudo apt-get install xserver-xorg perhaps? [07:07] also might want to add "Order allow, deny" and "Allow from all" [07:08] how can I get my tablet stylus to work correctly in jaunty? [07:08] I fought with Apache for like a month straight moving a debian system from sun 5.8 to debian etch and scripted out the config, so haven't had to touch it in a while [07:08] err, moving to a debian system [07:08] binarymutant, what's the problem with your stylus? [07:08] yeah there's some differences between the various os's [07:08] just tried installing wifi radar from add and remove apps, installed fine, but tells me "Failed to execute child process "su-to-root" (No such file or directory)" when I try to launch it from the applications menu [07:09] multiple instances in a row (one at a time) of dpkg-query are eating 100% of my cpu, what might cause that? [07:09] Baatti, the right click no longer works after the upgrade :/ [07:09] sparr: run pstree and see what's calling dpkg-query [07:09] how do i install ms font's on ubuntu anyone? [07:09] ghoti: nifty command [07:09] sparr: it's an invaluable tool :) [07:10] of course it stopped just as i checked [07:10] but ill know next time [07:10] sparr: must be my magnetic personality [07:10] syntax\, sudo aptitude install msttcorefonts [07:11] sparr: you might check the output of crontab -l to see if it was a cron job that was running the queries [07:11] snek, what about if i wanna install calibri font? [07:11] binarymutant, I'm not sure how to help, sorry. Try asking again explaining the issue [07:11] syntax\, install it like any ttf font by placing it in ~/.font ? [07:12] ok thanks === Jiyu_ is now known as JiYu [07:12] they really should make a font management tool for ubuntu :) [07:12] anyone heard of video output issues (ie flickering screen) with nvidia 9800 o 9.04? [07:12] how can I get my tablet stylus to work correctly in jaunty, my right click no longer works :/ [07:13] wrektjet yes... [07:13] so what am I supposed to do with all this stuff I installed [07:13] wrektjet, are your desktop settings set for 3d graphics? [07:13] g++ [07:13] yep [07:13] I still don't understand what I'm supposed to do with all these files http://vnc-tight.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/vnc-tight/trunk/unix/xserver/hw/vnc/ [07:13] Baatti, yep [07:13] wrektjet, try turning that off, should solve your issue... [07:13] Baatti, is it a compiz thing? [07:14] wrektjet, as far as solving it while keeping the 3d, I'm not sure how to fix, you'll have to ask others [07:14] snek: i don't have ~/.font [07:14] i hear u. k [07:14] im gonna ask in the compiz room [07:14] wrektjet, not sure if its 'compiz' specific problem, but its definitely on the forums. I had the same issue [07:14] ok I have handbrake installed and was wondering about the mp4 output and how to get this to a blank dvd [07:14] ok [07:14] wrektjet, there are ways to get around it, I know friends who get it to work [07:15] i love the 3d settings, but i like to watch full screen ;( ill put it on the list of things to figure out [07:15] :P [07:15] is there a way to set up my ubuntu box to share a connection to a router (basically have it behave like a cable modem)? [07:15] maybe someone will post a solution on the forums or docs [07:16] the ICS guide seems to have it doing DHCP and stuff, I am fine with my DDWRT router handling that [07:16] ottothecow: I use a Ubunto box *as* my router (and then some (: ) [07:16] wrektjet, there is quite a lot on the forums already about it [07:16] ghoti: I am just trying to temporarily share my tethered blackberry while my cable is down from my laptop [07:17] ottothecow, heh, might as well utilize that extra monthly fee for tethering :P [07:17] i'm really aggravated, im trying to be able to use my "Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless 3945ABG [Golan] Network Connection (rev 02)" (as lspci says) in *box... what do i do? im tired of using gnome/kde JUST to get internet... [07:17] Snek & Isma: the error log is also telling me my index file does not exist when i clearly does [07:17] ottothecow: quick answer, you'll need to configure IP Masquerading (NAT) and routing on your box [07:18] noogie: sounds like your config files aren't being read correctly (or it's reading the wrong ones) [07:18] do I need to do that if it is already being done by my router? [07:19] ottothecow: if you want your PC to share its connection, that's what a router *is* [07:19] Ismarc: ill keep checking them out, i should eventully get them right [07:19] ottothecow: yeah, because the IP address space for your tethered 3G connection is going to be different than what your router hands out [07:19] !webcam [07:19] Instructions for using webcams with Ubuntu can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Webcam - Supported cams: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsMultimediaWebCameras [07:19] can somebody tell me what I'm supposed to do with these files http://vnc-tight.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/vnc-tight/trunk/unix/xserver/hw/vnc/ [07:19] I got that, but I want to share it to my wireless router which is already set up with the rest my network [07:19] hello can anyone help a total noob? i recently upgraded to jaunty and i noticed that the sound only goes on when i adjust the volume sliders. [07:20] !fglrx [07:20] For Ati/NVidia/Matrox video cards, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto [07:20] it starts out muted then i open volume control manager and adjust volume then the sound goes on [07:20] I'd like to plug my ethernet into my routers WAN port and be good to go [07:20] * AK_Dave is trying to understand his intel video and framerates. Same kernel, no compiz, can't figure out what is different. Jaunty UNR from thumbdrive, liveUSB, stock install, getting ~30fps in ppracer. Jaunty i386, same kernel, full install, ppracer gives ~20fps. Something in the full install is eating my graphics performance. [07:21] ottothecow: You'll still need to set up NAT and routing on your computer so it knows what to do with the traffic on the ethernet port [07:21] ottothecow: Right. And in order for that to work, your PC must perform IP masquerating (AKA DNAT) from your tether connection to the ethernet connection [07:21] so just follow the ICS guide? [07:21] ghoti: you mean SNAT [07:22] hello? anyone? [07:22] ismarc: SNAT is one-to-one IP forwarding, masquerading is usually DNAT (one external IP to many internal) [07:23] kopichu, what exactly is the issue? you state that you ahve to manually slide the volume... what other way are you trying that's not working? [07:23] Baatti, well i try to just press mute then unmute. but sounds are still off [07:23] hey === mengu is now known as whalberg === whalberg is now known as mengu [07:24] kopichu, can you get sound if you use your volume slider? [07:24] Baatti, its only when i move the sliders that they work [07:24] ghoti: DNAT changes the destination, SNAT changes the source, full NAT involves both an SNAT and DNAT rule [07:24] im trying to be able to use my "Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless 3945ABG [Golan] Network Connection (rev 02)" (as lspci says) in *box... what do i do? im tired of using gnome/kde JUST to get internet... using a 2 year old hp pavilion dv9000 cto [07:24] DNAT would be for inbound connections [07:24] i actually have it since hardy - i have managed to upgrade from hardy > intrepid > jaunty - all have the same issue [07:25] kopichu, so what is it you are asking for assistance with? What would you like to be able to do? [07:25] ismarc: I think your S and D are different from my S and D :) I'm thinking Static/Dynamic NAT, not Source/Destination [07:25] Baatti, ubuntu starts out muted - it would be nice if the sound stays on [07:25] ismarc: in any case, the important thing for ottothecow is IP Masquerading :) [07:25] ghoti: yeah, I was using DNAT and SNAT as iptables does :) [07:25] even if i restart [07:25] kopichu, ah, gotcha [07:25] ismarc: I was speaking shorewall ;) [07:26] I just ran an upgrade from upgrade manager from intrepid -> jaunty, and it says that fglrx won't work with my card (radeon mobility x600) [07:26] kopichu, ok well, unfortunately I'm a linux gnewb as well, but if you perhaps ask your question like that 'How can I get Ubuntu to boot with full volume', someone might be able to answer [07:27] ok, it looks like fglrx is the culprit [07:27] lol [07:27] How can I get Ubuntu to boot with full volume? [07:27] :P [07:27] apt-get remove xserver-xorg-fglrx [07:27] now it boots properly [07:27] So this may be a stupid question, but can you install Ubuntu on a Mac Pro? [07:27] a.bg === Guest3857 is now known as tuyenln [07:27] Also, can you duel boot Mac OSX / Ubuntu on a Mac Pro? [07:28] yes, you ccan install ubuntu on a mac pro [07:28] can somebody tell me how to compile all these files http://vnc-tight.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/vnc-tight/trunk/unix/xserver/hw/vnc/ [07:28] dual boot or via virtual machine [07:29] hmm [07:29] DurtDiggler: I haven't looked at them at all yet, however, my guess is "svn checkout http://vnc-tight.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/vnc-tight trunk && cd trunk && ./configure && make && sudo make install" [07:30] theoretically they should have build instructions somewhere [07:30] I jsut run that? [07:31] im trying to be able to use my intel pro/wireless 3945abg in *box and CLI without having to login to GNOME... what do i do? [07:31] any one know about widestudio [07:31] ? [07:31] no [07:31] thank you [07:31] Hello [07:32] DurtDiggler: I, uh, nope, that will fail. Gimme a little bit and I'll get something that is more likely to work [07:32] what was the movie with someone who was sopposed to be bill gates and the college students that were creating the same thing but open source to microsoft media streamer?? [07:32] Éîó [07:33] I saw a really good movie about the 2k bubble [07:33] Jaunty: I am able to watch youtube, but there is no sound [07:33] I jsut keep getting different little bits and pieces of information from people [07:33] for the last 5 hours [07:33] how do i use my wireless card in cli/*box? [07:33] everybody says something different too [07:33] what you doin bosco [07:34] hi [07:34] how ru [07:35] exit [07:35] DurtDiggler: run sudo apt-get build-dep tightvnc [07:35] DurtDiggler: That should install a bunch of stuff and set up your build environment [07:35] im going to come back in a few hours [07:35] k [07:35] connection is almost being shared... [07:36] I'm installed so much stuff [07:36] everybody has me install somethign different [07:36] Just replaced WinXP with Ubuntu 9.04 on my notebook, but can't get networking to work reliably. I'm unable to get the wired and wireless info to remain saved after entering, and unsure where to begin. Anyone know how to get this fixed? [07:36] how do you play klotski? [07:37] now I have to figure out how to get dd-wrt to connect to it === kjkjl is now known as lotr [07:39] DurtDiggler: Once the build-deps are installed, make a scratch directory (mkdir scratch) cd to it, then execute "svn co https://vnc-tight.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/vnc-tight vnc-tight" === mirk_ is now known as mirk [07:39] DurtDiggler: That's gonna take a while, mine's still running. As soon as mine's done I can tell you how to build it [07:39] zzxxzz: think they had the same problem with 8.10 [07:39] hello can anyone help me? ubuntu starts out muted always. [07:40] actually, wait on that, I'm gonna figure what the structure is so you don't get literally everything [07:41] bamball: There's no System, Admin, Network GUI in 9.04 and I don't have any idea how to configure my wired and wireless permanently. [07:42] I have a list of about 200 proxies but some are good and some aren't. is there a program that I can put all these proxies into and easily switch between them? [07:43] so any Admins [07:43] dday r u asking seriously? why not try help > contents? [07:43] zzxxzz: maybe you need to modify the /etc configs? but i heard they'll hey replaced by the network manager.. [07:43] I think my ICS is working but I can't get it to distribute to the rest of my neetwork [07:44] anyone else having trouble with menus in 9.04 [07:44] ahh okay ty [07:44] DurtDiggler: ok, it's "svn co https://vnc-tight.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/vnc-tight/trunk vnc-tight" [07:44] oh I already started what you told me before [07:45] how to properly do upgrade from 8.04 to 9.04 (server edition)? [07:45] i just did an update it worked for me [07:45] izmaelis: You have ot upgrade to 8.10 and then to 9.04 [07:45] !upgrade | izmaelis [07:45] izmaelis: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes - see also http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/upgrading [07:45] how much is this in US dollars? £12.80 [07:46] bamball: I can get a connection sometimes with both a wired and a wireless at the same time, but my CPU runs 100% and if I try to disable one of the connections I lose all access. [07:46] Anyone else experiencing problems with 9.04 and flash ? All my youpor .. err, youtube videos are laggy and freeze up the browser. [07:46] what is that british pounds? £12.80 [07:46] ? [07:46] DurtDiggler: once it's done, you want to do cd vnc-tight/trunk/unix [07:47] zzxxzz: sorry dun think i can help, i thot it was the issue I had with 8.10 where the fixed IP address never really save [07:47] Hi... is it possible to stop the update manager opening when updates are available and just display a popup like the older versions? [07:47] 12.80 pounds is 18.85 dollars [07:47] amigamia: $18.72 today. [07:48] DurtDiggerl: then, the build process is: autoconf && automake [07:49] why the the pounds to dollars ?? [07:49] DurtDiggler: Then, make && sudo make install [07:49] !iperf [07:49] Sorry, I don't know anything about iperf [07:49] w00t, its working [07:49] ismarc: I don't have that directory [07:49] only directory is orig [07:49] wow [07:49] oh, cd to orig [07:49] thanks ghoti [07:49] is trunk there? [07:49] that is the price for hostilng a LFS server [07:49] i wanted to know [07:49] so that is british sterling or something i suppose. [07:49] that's bizarre, they've got their svn mapping all screwed up [07:50] you want to remove that whole directory you checked out and run the second command I gave you [07:50] ismarc: yes [07:50] bamball: I guess it's back to WinXP or wait and see what 9.10 will do? [07:50] can anyone help me? ubuntu always starts out muted. sound turns on only when i move volume sliders. [07:50] why does my java do not work in xubuntu, is it xfce a problem? because i have another laptop with ubuntu and java works in there. [07:50] hey, uh does anyone know how to format a USB flash drive such that osx can read it? I tried fat32 and fat16 with the 'boot' flag set. is that the right flag in the first place? should I do fat32 + some other flag? [07:51] DurtDiggler: After that second command, it's cd vnc-tight/unix [07:51] vnc-tight/orig/trunk/unix/vnc-unixsrc [07:51] something like that [07:51] ? [07:51] that's where I am [07:51] I want to create a startup script to create a bridge (br0) including tap0 and eth0 for use with VirtualBox. I know all the commands to create the bridge. If I create a script and put it in /etc/rc.local does that automatically make it run at boot time? Or do I have to do something else too? [07:51] zzxxzz: is 8.10 not good enuff for u? [07:52] DurtDiggler: ok, type xmkmf [07:52] ok [07:52] did that [07:52] ok, now type make World [07:52] i got compiz to work with the cube, and i set 4 desktops and 4 verticle whatever...anyway so i get my 16 desktops..but only the 4 on the first worskpace get the top panel...all workspaces get the bottom any ideas? [07:53] bamball: I've got that on another system and am still trying to iron out the bugs in it so I hoped 9.04 would be an improvement. [07:53] ok [07:53] that's did a whole bunch of stuff [07:53] DurtDiggler: Now, cd Xvnc && ./configure && make [07:53] DurtDiggler: That'll do a ton more stuff [07:54] hi, short question: I have a .deb file and like'd to install it.. but how? no success with apt [07:54] when I right click the network manager and selects connection information. What is Broadcast Address and default route? I suppose Default route is what the windows world calls gateway, or am I wrong in that assumption? [07:54] where do these patched source files come in to all of this [07:54] Hello everybody [07:54] axel_s: sudo dpkg -i whatever.deb [07:54] lux_, hello [07:54] Someone know a chanel for openoffice.org ? [07:54] k1gwb2: thanks! [07:54] DurtDiggler: Are there patches you need to apply, or has it been patched in trunk? [07:54] lux #openoffice.org ? [07:54] yes [07:55] axel_s: Or just double click it and it should open the package installer and ask for a password to install. [07:55] Hello people. When I connect my external USB drive, it suddenly doesn't automatically mount anymore. Yesterday it still worked. But when I connect it now, nothing happens. Dmesg says this: [ 909.860054] usb 1-1: new high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 6 [07:55] [ 909.916107] hub 1-0:1.0: unable to enumerate USB device on port 1 [07:55] Anybody an idea what I can do to solve this? [07:55] my original question is what to do with these files http://vnc-tight.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/vnc-tight/trunk/unix/xserver/hw/vnc/ [07:55] I use jaunty btw [07:55] bamball: I might add that all my files are on a third system running 7.04, which I can't upgrade due to another bug. [07:55] they are some kind of patch [07:55] to fix ubuntu [07:55] xorg [07:55] DurtDiggler: Those aren't a patch, those are the source files for tightvnc [07:55] hi. my vps server is ubuntu 7.10 gutsy. but there is no more updates for gutsy. how can upgrade it from ssh to 8.04 without loosing any data. [07:55] Thanks, celthunder :) [07:55] zzxxzz: are u running some services on that 7.04 box? what can't u upgrade? [07:56] read this https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/vnc4/+bug/260815 [07:56] ahola!! [07:56] I'm jsut doing what this thing says [07:56] lux_, np [07:56] I have no clue what I'm doing [07:56] anyone else having issues with the menu in 9.04 [07:56] thepenguin37: If you find a good way, say something. I tried the old-school dist-upgrade method and it didn't work right, so I've got a server running gardy now === desti_T2 is now known as desti [07:57] Howdy, can I get a hand with a startup script (using rc.local)? [07:57] in the Connection Information in the network manager. Is Default Route the same as the Gateway when I'm on win? [07:58] DurtDiggler: ok, do this [07:58] bamball: The upgrade files for 7.04 have been removed from the repositories, and I can't back up my files because of an unresolved USB bug which will not be resolved. [07:58] * Night0wl wonders how long to wait before asking for help... [07:58] Matt1360`, try and ask and se if you get a reply [07:58] what about this thing I got going already [07:58] completely remove all the directories and stuff we checked out [07:58] Ctrl-C if you gotta [07:58] ok [07:58] Im back, i am not getting any errors in my virtual host error log, but im not being taken to the full directory path in the config file [07:59] zzxxzz: can't u transfer files via other means? network? [07:59] Ooh, never mind.. I seemed to have fixed it... Almost asked a pointless question. [07:59] DurtDiggler: Now, type "locate libvnc.so" [07:59] noogie: Lack of errors is progress! [07:59] ismarc: thank god [08:00] ismarc: im not religious [08:00] DurtDiggler: Record where it says the file is at. Then type ls -l [08:00] noogie: fight with Apache long enough and you will be [08:00] ismarc: I jsut deleted taht entire thing [08:01] bamball: It would take forever, but that's what I've been trying to do a little at a time. I've got nearly 2 TB's to move. [08:01] noogie: it should just be getting the directories pointed to the right place now (ie, putting the right paths in) [08:01] 3g -> blackberry -> bluetooth -> eeepc -> iptables -> dd-wrt -> rest of the network that can't tell that anything is different (except a lot slower than cable) [08:01] DurtDiggler: The output from locate libvnc.so [08:01] I have an empty scratch directory [08:01] ismarc: awesome [08:01] DurtDiggler: what does that say? [08:01] that's where I'm at [08:01] oh I know where that is [08:01] now if only I had a reason to be online [08:01] zzxxzz: maybe better off to invest in a gigabit switch? [08:02] do you want me to do there [08:02] go* [08:02] attempting to resume an upgrade to 9.04 after having suspended in the middle. I wonder how this will go. [08:02] www.ubuntume.com for muslim edition [08:02] DurtDiggler: nope, we want to type ls -l so we can see the user and group owner and the file permissiosn [08:02] www.ubuntume.com for muslim edition === mjc1 is now known as mjc [08:03] www.ubuntume.com for muslim edition [08:03] Hi... on 9.04 I cant play OGM files with totem-gstreamer - usually only the sound plays, although sometimes video works as well. Totem-xine does work. Any ideas? [08:03] www.ubuntume.com for muslim edition [08:03] I'm almost getting 900kbps over 3g too [08:03] bamball: Not easy to find hardware here, I'm a couple of clicks from Laos in Northern Thailand. [08:03] DarkJiwa: Please don't spam here. [08:03] DarkJiwa: Or anywhere, for that matter. Also, don't advertise here. [08:03] ok [08:03] DurtDiggler: put the line for libvnc.so in here so I can give you the correct next steps [08:04] is there anyway that i can remove windows and use my wubi ubuntu system exclusively? i set it up on a 1u server and i want to remove windows and just use ubuntu. [08:04] locate never does anything for me [08:04] chazco: you don't have the plugin that enables h264 playback? not sure which one and I can't ask my apt currently [08:04] can i use gparted and just kill the windows partition? [08:04] amigamia, you will want to do a real install [08:04] amigamia: The best thing to do would be to move your wubi install to a "real" install. [08:04] this linux box is across the room [08:04] ok [08:04] amigamia: yeah but I think wubi is inside the windows part [08:04] so I have to keep walking back and forth [08:04] yeah [08:04] ok well i will just do a from scratch i suppose [08:04] amigamia: the if you kill that you kill your ubuntu [08:05] amigamia: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WubiGuide#How%20do%20I%20migrate%20to%20a%20real%20partition,%20and/or%20get%20rid%20of%20Windows%20entirely? [08:05] i liked my config [08:05] locate doesnt do crap [08:05] amigamia: you could copy your /home to somehting then it would save config [08:05] amigamia, you can save everything [08:05] zzxxzz: i see, sounds like usb is indeed the fastest option. But i would rather physically get the hd out and put it in an enclosure or something, then you can transfer all the files [08:05] way back in the days that command used to do something for me [08:05] amigamia, /home for sure and...maybe even /etc to keep the settings? [08:05] amigamia: your home is where all your settings and files are. You could install ubuntu and be up in running in minutes. [08:05] but for the last 2 yars it does nothing for me [08:05] !home | amigamia [08:05] mjc - Dont think they're encoded in h264... I had most codecs installed though. I tried to extract the OGM with ogmdemux and was able to play the video by itself... think its an OGM issue [08:05] amigamia: Your home directory is where all of your personal files are usually kept. For moving your home directory to a separate partition, please see: http://psychocats.net/ubuntu/separatehome [08:05] i will just do it from scartch i had a problem with the swap file anyway. [08:05] DurtDiggler: Do sudo updatedb && local libvnc.so | [08:05] amigamia: kk. [08:06] ismarc: whats the last | for? [08:06] i will just do it with 9.04 this time from scratch. thanks [08:06] DurtDiggler: err, locate libvnc.so, not local [08:06] what happened to Tracker Desktop Search in Ubuntu 9.04? [08:06] histo: I failed at typing [08:06] amigamia, yeah, wubi has funny problems like that...but definately save your /home...that is one of the beauties of linuxx [08:06] I did that [08:06] BezNalogov: Have you looked in /media with the external device unmounted? A hidden file named .hal-mtab might remain, also a folder with the device label, both of which should not exist. [08:06] and it did nothing [08:06] it doesnt do anything anymore [08:06] histo: Using some new non-command line irc client [08:06] doesnt locate crap === dtech is now known as d-tech [08:06] well wubi is magnificent for allowing windows people to learn about soemthing real anyway [08:06] Hello! I have a problem with my Ubuntu 9.04. I usually play a game called ATITD. The game works perfect, but sometimes, the PC frozes for 10-15 sec, going from cpu 70%-65% to 0%, then returning back with no errors. Can someone tell me what is causing this annying problem? (I usualy keep this programs open when I play the game: Pidgin, Songbird, Firefox, AWN and Conky.) [08:06] amigamia: when you do install I recomend doing about 10g for / and use the rest of your drive for /home [08:06] DurtDiggler: locate doesn't do anything after you typed sudo updatedb? [08:06] amigamia: with the exception of a few gigs for swap. [08:07] amigamia: that way if you ever want to reinstall or switch distros you just reload / and leave your /home alone. [08:07] amigamia, yeah, wubi is cool, but if you want to ditch windows and use it as a server, you will need a real install [08:07] DurtDiggler: remove the | off the end of the comand [08:07] does nothing [08:07] but luckily, a real install is almost as easy as a wubi install [08:08] Hi... on 9.04 I cant play OGM files with totem-gstreamer - usually only the sound plays, although sometimes video works as well. Totem-xine does work. Any ideas? [08:08] I'll just find the fricken file in the file manager [08:08] i will just start from scratch thanks [08:08] that is the best thing to do [08:08] I will check on that zzxxzz [08:08] bamball: For the time being I'm not too interested in upgrading from 7.04 as I'm having more problems with 8.10 and 9.04 so it's my most reliable OS at the moment. [08:08] is bin/bash shell great? [08:09] these eracks are really noisy with all these fans geez. [08:09] i looked at blades on ebay and they are cheap but you need to buy a bunch of other stuff to make them work [08:09] jigp: Yes it is. [08:10] hello is bin/bash nice to use? or there is super shell for that? [08:10] DurtDiggler: try this: "wget ftp://linvinus.ru/forum/vnc/libvnc.so" && sudo cp libvnc.so /usr/lib/xorg/modules/extensions/. && sudo chown root:root /usr/lib/xorg/modules/extensions/libvnc.so && chmod 644 /usr/lib/xorg/modules/extensions/libvnc.so [08:10] jigp: zsh is one of the newer ones, but bash is good enough for most reasons [08:10] zzxxzz : im not particular of shell user.im going to add my sister [08:10] zzxxzz: I did find that .hal-mtab file and I removed it. But when the device still doesn't mount when I plug it in again [08:10] zzxxzz coopster : thanks [08:10] coopster: I've been trying to play around with zsh, there's some oddness to it you wouldn't expect [08:11] it's in usr/lib/xorg/modules/extensions/ [08:11] Is there a way to convert an Ubuntu installation to an encrypted root+swap without re-installing? I.E. boot off of a live cd and convert it? [08:11] BezNalogov: Did you also see a directory with the same name as the device name? [08:11] Hello! I have a problem with my Ubuntu 9.04. I usually play a game called ATITD. The game works perfect, but sometimes, the PC frozes for 10-15 sec, going from cpu 70%-65% to 0%, then returning back with no errors.

[08:11] dude your throwing so many different commands at me [08:11] if i'm running rails on ubuntu what's the best mail package to install if i want to SEND mail only? (don't need to recieve) [08:11] zzxxzz: Yes, that directory wasn't there [08:11] ismarc: It's usually pretty standard, what weird things? [08:12] thelordmortis: sendmail ? [08:12] what happened to the others [08:13] BezNalogov: My device was named Kingston, and when I had a similar problem I had several directories named Kingston{with an appendage) that I had to delete also [08:13] zzxxzz: I don't have them, only cdrom0 and a symlink called cdrom to cdrom0 [08:13] are there any good webkit based browsers for ubuntu? [08:13] coopster: mainly problems with going from sh to zsh, rather than having zsh as the default shell [08:13] v3gpuff: midori [08:14] DurtDiggler: The last large command I gave you should do everything you need [08:14] safruhani, thanks :) will check out [08:14] v3gpuff: ;) [08:14] haha [08:15] what are we doing anyways [08:15] BezNalogov: A reboot might clear the problem. I think /dev also has something that may need to be removed, but can't remember. === ViRii is now known as ViRii^Ubuntu [08:16] ok, then I will reboot as soon as I can, if the problem persists I will be back then. Thanks so far [08:16] DurtDiggler: If you have the problem listed in the bug, we're applying a patched shared library that will adjust the way noxdamage is set when you're connected to the box via a vnc connection. The change makes the x server properly report changed areas so that vnc can determine what updates need to be fetched and drawn === Yoda is now known as Guest86740 [08:16] So how does Wine work?

[08:44] what did I install [08:44] Jaso1: which version of ubuntu are you running and what is outdated? [08:44] the patched xorg? [08:44] DurtDiggler: The build process is absolutely bizarre [08:44] Jaso1: the repos get frozen a few months before release. So the software generally won't ever be newer than a few months at the time of release. [08:44] DurtDiggler: You installed a patched version of libvnc [08:44] Jaso1: its not, you can install anything of any version you want on it if you can get a repo or compile [08:44] jaunty, all of the software in the repos like vuze, tor, anything useful [08:44] ok [08:44] so what will make this work [08:44] If i have a ext2 parti, can I use it as ext3? [08:44] Jaso1: tor has been removed [08:45] !tor | Jaso1 [08:45] Jaso1: Many Ubuntu IRC channels prohibit access from !proxies such as TOR due to a high level of abuse. You can however obtain a hostmask cloak: see http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#cloaks [08:45] I did look there and followed maybe there is a missing step like setting a repository to start [08:45] DurtDiggler: Is the machine you're running on x86, or 64 bit? [08:45] Jaso1: they aren't out of date there is a release cycle of every 6 months for ubuntu. [08:45] x86 [08:45] Jaso1: so in the mena time after feature freeze/ relase. The software ages.

[09:14] when i run startx i don't get any taskbars or anything - why is that? [09:14] ikonia, let me ask something. when i boot off livecd, everything will be working right? usb specifically [09:14] and network [09:14] By the way, if anyone is or am planning on a installation new OS/disto: Make sure to remove all USB drives and USB harddrives. Also removing Micro dives is a good idea. I had to learn the hard way hahhah :-/ [09:15] Kartagis: should be unless you need propritary modules, or specific configs [09:15] sugi: why ? there is nothing wrong with installing with drives in [09:15] ikonia: i know that they do the same but the choice of one of them must be influenced by some criteria. this is what i'm searching for. [09:15] ikonia, i need to recover stuff from a windows laptop [09:16] MaWaLe: personal choice of what the individual likes is the critera [09:16] Kartagis: ok ? [09:16] is there any application like "windows's device manager" for hardware administration??? [09:16] how do I make ssh a proxy server? [09:16] ikonia: of coruse there is nothing wrong with installing these distros onto those formats, but when you mean to install your new OS to a harddrive and NOT wipe out your extra harddrive is not what I wanted. [09:16] MaWaLe: They do the same thing. It does come down to preference, and what you find easier to configure yourself. Give them both a go and make a choice. [09:17] sugi: so basiclly - you made a user error, so you suggest people take out disks to stop them making your personal user error [09:17] i installed ubuntu 9.04 3 days ago and it starting to freeze on me.... any Ideas? [09:17] thanks ikonia, notdkw [09:18] i even used both of them and have no prefenrences but i thought that many professionnal applications use postfix by default [09:18] MaWaLe: typically sendmail or postfix for enterprise solutions. but again, depends on the preference of the sysadmin. ;) [09:18] MaWaLe: nope, applications normally actually call sendmail libs that are simulated by other mta's [09:19] wow 1500 people anyways im trying to compile upstart but to no success [09:19] wire.c:120: error: 'INT_MIN' undeclared (first use in this function) [09:19] ikonia: it was my mistake to leave the extra harddrive plugged in. So in the end, I ended up wiping my extra harddrive that I just backed up everything to. So, for troubleshooting and failsafe would be to remove the external harddrive form the computer. So for my poor english, I meant to say external not extra harddrive*** [09:19] !ssh|disappearedng [09:19] disappearedng: SSH is the Secure SHell protocol.

Wow, what a huge channel. Anyway, I have an Ubuntu system on which I'd like to install OpenSSH 5.2p1 (I need the 'tunnel-port-0- feature of 5.2). I'm not sure how to go about doing this with minimal breakage of the rest of the system. [10:09] yeah, huge channel, little response... :( [10:09] Is it possible to delete a primary swap partition and then create another swap LOGICAL partition without harming the distro? I need an extra primary partition for another OS? [10:09] I'm thinking compiling openssh-5.2p1 into /usr/local/..., and then symlinking the binary names into /usr/bin. Thus, when the openssh is updated, my symlinks will be clobbered and the system will continue as usual with whatever new ssh will come out. [10:09] Does that make sense? === nobody is now known as Guest61800 [10:10] teolicy, probably using dpkg-divert it's a better option, read it's manpage [10:10] sugi: It depends on the layout of your partition table. Do you have an extended partition with free space in it? [10:11] joaopinto: Aye, I will. Thanks. === jean is now known as Guest74256 [10:12] hey guys. anyone know how to mount a vbox .vdi file as a disk? I want to get access to files, but don't want to boot the whole vm [10:12] teolicy, btw, if you do a .deb based installed, even using a source package, it will not be updated because your version is higher [10:12] teolicy: I have 29 gigs of free space, but 4 active primary partition. prim ntfs partition, prim / parititon, prim swap partition, and prim /home. [10:13] how to make wired managed by NetworkManager? === C is now known as Guest54164 [10:13] teolicy: btw, thats the sda# they are infact in order. so ntfs to the /home is the numbered of the sda.... [10:13] sugi: OK, and what do you want to do? Erasing the swap partition won't really free you a partition, because logical partition need to be created in an 'extended partition', which takes up a primary. [10:13] sugi, you can do whatever you want with your swap partition, as long you update /etc/fstab accordingly [10:13] sugi, assuming you be using a live cd for the changes [10:14] joaopinto: I don't understand your comment about doing a .deb based install. You mean, if I pack my openssh-5.2p1 as a .deb and install that? [10:14] my wired is not managed by NetworkManager [10:15] teolicy, yes, that is what I mean, using checkinstall should be fine for that [10:15] NET||abuse: easy way is to attach it as a second disk to another VM (use a live CD if you don't have anything suitable) and mount it there, hard way (assuming you've got a boatload of free disk space) is to use vditool to produce a raw disk image and mount that (you'll probably need to use fdisk to figure out the partition offset to pass to 'mount') [10:15] joaopinto: :-/ I did not think about updating the /fstab afterwards and I am not 100% sure I know how to do that. I have had a lot of issues with the manual editting of the fstab [10:16] is there any way to block right click ? [10:16] sugi, the swap partition is described on /etc/fstab, if it's moving to a new location, most likelt it's UUID will change, you need to update the swap line on fstab [10:17] sugi, it is not very complex, and you can boot without swap and fix the problem later [10:17] sugi: It is relatively simple to make swap reside in a file rather than a partition. Is that something you'll be interested in? [10:17] hibernate in 9.04 works awesome now - i hibernated whilst playing music- on resume it played the mp3 from where it left off- awesome [10:17] teolicy, because performance concerns it is not advised to use file based swap... [10:18] but hibernate has no nice gui screen went going to hibernate [10:18] clear [10:18] teolicy: It sounds liek it would fix my issue. I need to free up a primary partition. SO yea. joaopinto would the UUID be something like sda5 or whatever the numbe may be? [10:18] can there be a pretty hibernate gui screen? [10:19] luddite: what do you mean? [10:19] mquin, i was hoping to mount the vdi as a disk from time to time, and then just boot up the vm when i want to run an app in vista, but keep access to the updated files on the vdi without too much overhead. this seems like something that should be built into vbox or a driver it should install as part of it's packaging. vdi disk driver extension to supported file systems. [10:19] sugi, sda5 is the device name, UUID is a unique id assigned to each partition [10:19] sugi, joaopinto: I've never tested this exact case, but in my opinion, if you have more than two or three times free space in the partition where you're creating the swap file, the performance loss should be negligible. [10:20] sugi, joaopinto: Again, this is entirely off the top of my head, but I'd say less than 10% performance hit on a heavily swapping use-case. [10:20] mquin, i'm seeing from google that most solutions don't seem to like dynamically sized vdi's either... 'm boned here arn't i? [10:20] myrtti - when you boot up you have the progress bar - when shutting down - you get a progress bar. on hibernate there is no progress bar- just a ugly black screen with a cursor flasshing. [10:20] hi all. where can i find detailed release notes and changes for 9.04? [10:20] gluonman, hey [10:20] sorry.. i justread the topic [10:20] joaopinto: This sounds like a easy fix to corent the fstab, but how would I find out the UUID of the new partitioin? I do not want to jump into this blindly. [10:20] https://wiki.ubuntu.com/JauntyJackalope/ReleaseNotes rdz [10:21] teolicy, I have never used file based swap, so this is a theoritical observation, if you have a swap file, you must had the overhead of whatever filesystem management is required for that file, unlike a raw swap partiton, which can be directly managed [10:21] enigma, talk to me in #chatzone [10:21] luddite: I don't think there is anything like that available or even being designed yet [10:21] rdz: http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/releasenotes/904 [10:21] k [10:21] sugi, sudo blkid [10:22] sugi, let me correct a past sentence, you can boot without swap, unless you have a very small ammount of RAM :P [10:22] joaopinto: Yes and no. I suspect the filesystem structures used to manage the swap file will remain in RAM on all relevant scenarios. And then all you lose is a few C function calls per swap access to disk. [10:23] NET||abuse: looks that way. Given that the virtualbox-ose exists it should be possible to write an FS driver (probably an ideal candidate for FUSE), but it doesn't appear that anyone has done so yet [10:23] joaopinto: Few C functions calls on a modern PC: less than a microsecond. Access to disk: 3,000 microseconds in the best of the best case, more like 7,500-15,000 micro in a sane case. === Mud|bnc is now known as Mud [10:24] joaopinto: At least, that's the numbers I have in my head. So if every swap operation takes 3000 micro, now it will take 3000.5 micro. I think sugi can live with that. :) [10:24] i need someone to help me install musictracker [10:24] teolicy, your assumptiom may be correct, however, based on the fact that no distro is adopting it, I must doub it :P [10:25] joaopinto: so let me get this straight. delete the swap partition, recreate the swap parition with a logical partition. Then after the creation of hte new swap partitiion. op en the terminal and sudo gedit the /etc/fstab and change the UUID of the new swap logical partition withe the following command (sudo blkid) which should give the new UUID of the swap logical partition? Is this correct? if so, how do I make sure the old swap[ par [10:25] NET||abuse: http://forums.virtualbox.org/viewtopic.php?p=59679#59679 looks promising, if a little raw [10:25] sugi, probably it's easier to do it in two steps, first just remove the swap line from your /etc/fstab, and reboot, then you can use fdisk for th part changes [10:26] sugi: Yes, what you're saying is correct, /but it won't save you a partition according to the layout you just now specified/. [10:26] can someone help me to install musictracker ? [10:26] how do i listen to shoutcast on rhythmbox? [10:26] i have problems with compilation [10:27] puneeth, you mean the plugin ?

[10:28] joaopinto; hopefully , but i want musictracker [10:28] sugi: You got my last sentence?If you have four primary partitions, deleting one and creating a logical partition /will not free up a primary partition/. [10:28] joaopinto: well I still have to remove the prim swap partition and create a new logical swap partition then make a line in the fstab file to connecto to the new logical partition.

[10:30] sugi: Logical partitions MUST be created inside an "extended partition", which takes up the space of one primary partition. [10:30] sugi: If you don't have an extended partition, and from what you wrote, you don't, then deleting a primary will leave you with two choices: [10:30] i have a error in step 2 while installing musictracker (the plugin for pidgin) [10:31] koolkartik, what is your garphics card ?

[10:34] stone: 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 [10:34] bazhang, thanks!

[10:34] stone stop that [10:34] ya [10:34] sugi: For some cases, you can move boot partitions to be logical, too. [10:34] pff linuxdc++ isn't working [10:35] p2p error in skype [10:35] n/m got to go [10:35] I amnot sure stone he is into this C logic thing [10:35] [1]kino, you need to use a defrag tool which shows you the partition layout [10:35] !ops | stone just repeating himself [10:35] stone just repeating himself: Help!

[10:36] younder, he is asking about an ntfs partition that he needs to resize [10:36] stone: we've talked about this before, please stop [10:36] <[1]kino> joaopinto> i use the windows defragmenter, does it show it? [10:36] p2p error in skype [10:36] Or windows for that matter [10:36] will someone trow stone out [10:36] stone: ask your question - wait for a response, say 10 - 15 minutes between asking [10:36] [1]kino, don't know, windows is not my area of expertise, better ask on ##windows :P [10:37] did someone face problems with his intel graphics card after upgrading to jaunty? [10:37] adnc: it's a known issue, it is being worked on [10:37] adnc, there are known issues with the intel driver [10:37] adnc, which card [10:37] If it's a OS I know it and have used it.. ;) [10:37] sugi: I have to leave now, so sorry I can't help further. [10:37] <[1]kino> joaopinto> but basically, i should care that there are no blocks left at the end of the disk? [10:37] bazhang: it is the 965 and very slow [10:37] adnc, fix being worked on now [10:37] ikonia: joaopinto thank you. do you know if there are solutions available [10:37] [1]kino, yes, because to shrink the ntfs partition, it needs to be free on the size that will be reduced [10:38] joaopinto: wat shall i do after checking my vga [10:38] bazhang: now? how you mean? [10:38] [1]kino, not all the defrag tools take care of that [10:38] sugi: I suspect it would be best for you to switch to a swap file, but it's up to you to decide. [10:38] <[1]kino> joaopinto, thanks [10:38] witch package is required for the sound of the videos flashplugin-nonfree-extrasound ? [10:38] koolkartik, you should check if you have the correct driver, or if there are known problems for your graphics card model (driver) [10:38] i don`t have sound on videos [10:38] bazhang: and how will i get it then? where can i follow the status in order to get the fix? [10:38] adnc, as others have said it is a known issue, being worked on [10:38] teolicy: thank you for your time. [10:38] adnc, at the launchpad bug site [10:39] One recomondation: get the Operaweb browser [10:39] ajah medibuntu repository : www.medibuntu.org [10:39] p2p error in skype [10:39] Opera [10:39] sugi: Anytime. :) [10:39] scort [10:39] bazhang: i had a similar problem with the wlan card in the past and it never got fixed untill next ubuntu release that time. i hope this won't happen to this problem aswell [10:39] JosephOun, how does the medibuntu repository helps getting sound on videos ? [10:40] It handles flash etc. [10:40] ub paste [10:40] right out of the box [10:41] help please. my server gone. apt-get update gives error. dpkg --configure -a prints http://paste.ubuntu.com/160577/ [10:41] stone: please think about what you are doing this time [10:41] thepenguin37: that is, to put it mildly, bad [10:42] ajah the medibuntu repo. will install all the non-free components that ubuntu can't install by default [10:42] thepenguin37: You have installed 64 bit code on a 32 bit macine [10:42] :S [10:42] p2p error in skype [10:42] Anyone on? [10:42] elenita: 1300+ people are [10:43] You are pretty much stuck with a complete reinstall [10:43] thepenguin37: the segfault bit is particularly worrying - maybe you could run memtest86 ? [10:43] thepenguin37, did you executed the dpkg command as request ? [10:43] anybody here put UNR on an eee pc 901? [10:43] obviously, but most are just sleep lurking === JC_Denton__ is now known as JC_Denton_ [10:43] joaopinto: yes. after apt-get update error [10:43] heh [10:43] p2p error in skype....any one can help me? [10:43] i do keep odd hours [10:43] how do i get opera [10:43] anyone know anything about broadcom 4311 wifi chipsets? [10:44] hi [10:44] i have a 7.10 system. i changed sources.list gutsy to hardy. apfter apt-get didt-upgrade [10:44] joapinto, as said, it installs all the non-free codecs and components that ubuntu can't install (like w32, which is a video codec) [10:44] thepenguin37, ouch, you must have configured an incompatible repository source [10:44] JosephOun i think that i should remove some packages that are in conflict i didn`t have a video at all an i remove the the swfdec-mozilla and let run with swfdec-gnome and now i have video but not sound [10:44] evrithing goes well but some errors i get [10:44] opera not there in synaptic [10:44] stone: you need to elaborate a bit more - also acknowledge that skype is proprietary, closed source software which we cannot support here apart from problems that are directly because of ubuntu [10:45] thepenguin37: there are better ways of upgrading than fiddling with sources.list [10:45] JosephOun, if you read his question again, he does not have a codec problem, the audio and video are properly decoded, he just does not get sound, which is most likely a sound setup issue [10:45] Myrtti: how ? [10:45] I always have had trouble with ftp-servers I setup (ubuntu and proftpd). Transfers are randomly shutdown, it works but always quite unstable. I can't figure out what I'm doing wrong. Sorry for the wide question, but any ideas why? I don't do anything special from what I know. [10:45] pragad7-> go here: http://www.opera.com/download/ [10:45] !upgrade | thepenguin37 [10:45] thepenguin37: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes - see also http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/upgrading [10:46] pluffsy, most likely a network/network driver issue [10:46] !upgrade [10:46] lol [10:46] joaopinto: the transfers works fine over ssh though. still think that is the problem? [10:46] i have install skype 2.0.0.72 in ubuntu 8.10. it has installed properly but when i give the username and password it is showing p2p connection failed [10:47] hi all. i just upgraded my intel c2d machine with intel GM965/GL960 graphics to jaunty and the 'appearance' menu won't let me turn desktop effects on. however, DRI is already enabled. (yes,i heard of the issues of the intel drivers, but i would like to try it anyway) [10:47] is it common that hardware that doesnt work running live cd works after install? [10:47] stone: that's a problem with skype then. Have you checked the skype forums for help? [10:47] thepenguin37: You fucked up big time.. sorry [10:47] pluffsy, yes, because there isn't anything specific to an ftp server configuration that would make it randomyly close connections [10:47] younder: mind your language! [10:47] <[1]kino> joaopinto> the defrag tool says disk needs no defragmentation. [10:47] he is anyone using downloader for x [10:47] !language | younder [10:47] younder: Please watch your language and topic to help keep this channel family friendly. [10:48] [1]kino, that does not mean there is no block allocated at the end of the partition.... [10:48] Jeg har mistet den eksterne harddisken min.... Noen som kan hjelpe meg? kjører ubuntu 9.04 [10:48] sorry, but in this case I think is appropriate [10:48] DaveWM, some installation of hardware drivers require a reboot, so if they are not loaded per default from the live cd, you cannot test those drivers [10:48] lol [10:48] ajah, dependencies are always a problem. go here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=766683 and here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=205449 it might help. joaopinto, you're right, but it doesn't hurt to try. it might install as dependencies all he needs, or he could just go and turn up the volume [10:48] younder: it's not. [10:48] [1]kino, I can't help you much more, I don't have experience with defrag tools for windows this days :\ [10:48] <[1]kino> joaopinto> but there are no further options with the defrag tool [10:48] ya...the problem has faced by so many people in the forum but no body discussed regarding solve the issue [10:49] joaopinto: What can I do if that is my problem? Should I try to find alternative drivers for my network card instead of ubuntus included/default drivers? [10:49] [1]kino, you may need a specialized defrag tool.... [10:49] just wondering, i'm trying a few different jaunties out on my eee 901, UNR live my bluetooth and wifi didnt work, dunno what else, so i thought i'd try the alternate cd first before installing UNR completely [10:49] Hello all, upgraded my HP NC 6400 notebook to jaunty jackalope , and now I can't use my keyboard buttons for volume increase or decrease [10:49] pluffsy, I would report or search for similar problems reported on launchpad [10:49] 8.10, installed on a dell insp 1300 got the ubuntu supplied driver and the b43-fwcutter installed, but iwlist says there are no networks available when I know there is, vI also tried installing wifi radar from the add/remove but it gives this error : Failed to execute child process "su-to-root" (No such file or directory) any ideas? [10:49] Myrtti: Ok he lost his install.. So you get a bit @$! [10:49] JosephOun k thanks for help [10:49] ajah, no prob. good luck [10:50] anybody a suggestion? [10:50] its alot easier getting linux installs on a usb stick than windows... that's for certain [10:50] But I will try to mind my language [10:50] Hello all, upgraded my HP NC 6400 notebook to jaunty jackalope , and now I can't use my keyboard buttons for volume increase or decrease [10:50] what to do? [10:50] zura great [10:50] yeah same thoughts here [10:50] excuse me, but is there a better way of assigning an icon to a file format than editing mime.types? [10:51] zura: umm I don't know [10:51] joaopinto: ok thanx i'll check the right driver now [10:51] stone: unfortunately there's very little we can do since it's closed source software that's not an official part of ubuntu [10:51] Sorry, tought I was in the norwegian forum.. [10:51] stone: im on skype now [10:51] I found this program called keytouch (keytouch.sourceforge.net) [10:51] joaopinto: alright. I will probably soon buy myself a new 1GBit network card anyway. could that resolve the issue? [10:51] There are Norwegians here [10:51] but can't get it working... :( [10:51] snakka du Norsk? [10:51] Ja [10:51] lol [10:51] zura: some things aren't worth the time to get working [10:51] pluffsy, yes [10:51] I am working in Norway [10:51] jasol: is it working? [10:51] Gjør du?

[11:03] Georgi: you are aware that 3D effect's and transparancy etc. don't work? [11:03] well the release notes said that it will have update to fix this sometime :) [11:04] yes they are not working [11:04] joaopinto: hey. i read this documents but it says before upgrade update your system but i cannot update because there is no working repository for gutsy. they are all gone http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/gutsy [11:04] Georgi: As far as I know, it hasn't come out yet. [11:05] Tapout: I've updated the document for you [11:05] koshari: do you mean apt's cache of debs, or the apt-cache command to search the repos? [11:06] Hi, I am using Jaunty on my thinkpad. I just got the fingerprint scanner to work with thinkfinger. I am looking for a way to have my fingerprint reader log me in automatically when I swipe my finger, instead of having to type a user name. Anyone know a solution for this? [11:06] Can someone help me with 1 problem : My nvidia-config doesnt read properly from xorg-conf , i cant get above 75hz reftesh rate @ 1280x1024 and im getting eye bleed atm [11:06] well i suppose i will have to wait :) [11:06] any suggestions ? [11:06] ActionParsnip1 i mean the apt-cacher application to install on my pc! [11:06] anybody? [11:06] koshari: never heard of it, i know of apt-cache to search the repo at CLI, let me websearch [11:06] what is DBL_WORD ? [11:07] ActionParsnip1 https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/jaunty/lpia/apt-cacher [11:07] Benwa, could you explain what is the problem? [11:07] georgi: well you have a prytty limited system. [11:07] koshari: http://www.debuntu.org/how-to-set-up-a-repository-cache-with-apt-cacher [11:07] Randominator: Maybe try dpkg-reconfigure xorg ? [11:07] younder: what do u mean with pretty limited system ? [11:07] Randominator: LCD? CRT? what monitor exactly? you can always manually enter a modeline in the xorg.conf - but thats about all i rember from me last using my old CRT. [11:07] Randominator: theres also the nvidia-settings tool that can tweak things [11:08] georgi: In terms of features compared to a desktop system [11:08] fixed LOL [11:08] younder: well it is a laptop :) [11:09] georgi: exactly [11:09] Kengine: probably means "double word", an integer (usually 32bits wide) [11:09] Double word iw 64 bit [11:10] well the hidden files of the external drive of my fat 32 has been deleted. Since, i cannot copy or paste anything [11:10] ActionParsnip1 its ok i didnt reload my sourses list after i logged into the install.....

[11:11] could well be... how old is your system? [11:11] georgi: they should work fine with ubuntu [11:11] Hello , does Ubuntu have some tool for copy data from disk (cdrom) that may have some scratch ? (i dont mind to get just part of the data) ? [11:11] georgi: I mean I use them [11:11] Benwa: you cannot copy to external drive. And thus you THINK some files are deleted? Or you know that some files are deleted and you THINK this is the reason you cannot copy? [11:12] sivan26f: you can use dd_rescue [11:12] can someone who is running jaunty successfully paste the contents of their /etc/pam.d/gdm and /etc/pam.d/gdm-autologin files for me? [11:12] sivan26f: you can make an iso of the files, then mount the image you make [11:13] to a pastebin like pastebin.com preferably [11:13] sivan26f: dd_rescue will keep writing, even if the data is corrupted [11:13] hi folks [11:13] ActionParsnip1: ok thanks [11:13] well i know some files are deleted. My girlfriend did... And since it's not possible to copy anything [11:13] ActionParsnip1: does dd_rescue create iso file ? [11:13] sivan26f: you can then even use foremost to copy the data it can from the image [11:14] sivan26f: yes [11:14] sivan26f: it's exactly like dd [11:14] Randominator: years ago it was possible if you had the monitor specs to make your own custome x mode line for it. [11:14] Benwa: I want to use the f word again! [11:14] sivan26f: once you have an iso, use foremost on it to extract the file types you wish [11:14] Benwa: I do not really see a connection here... could you post the line how you mount the disk? [11:14] Benwa: sorry for your loss. [11:14] sudo mount /dev/sde1 /media/SARAH/ [11:15] younder: according to the release notes of 9.04 the desktop effects are disabled for Intel Cards : These freezes happen particularly often on the i965 chips (359392). For that reason, desktop effects were disabled by default on this chipset in the final release. They will be re-enabled in a 9.04 Update once the problem has been fixed [11:15] Benwa: If it aint in the garbage basket it is forever lost. [11:15] i know [11:15] Benwa: could you post the corresponding line from the /etc/fstab? [11:15] georgi: yes [11:15] dr_willis: im still stuck at the same problem , i edit xorg.conf and nvidia-settings does not read the new refresh rates [11:15] hi all i am having probs just check it outhttp://paste.ubuntu.com/160592/ [11:15] can anyone help me with the contents of ther /etc/pam.d/gdm file? [11:15] its starting to piss me off. [11:16] georgi, whoever needs, can still enable them in every login, after the login itself [11:16] it's not in the fstab [11:16] but if you really want... [11:16] ActionParsnip1:http://paste.ubuntu.com/160592/ [11:16] Randominator: the way i had to upgrade was clean install intrepid, sort everything out, then upgrade to jaunty [11:16] georgi: I use a Nvidea 73000 graphics card [11:16] koolkartik: what video card do you have: lspci | grep -i vga will tell you what it is? [11:17] ActionParsnip1: i just looked at the manual of dd_rescue and its looking like chinese . can you help me please ? can tell me which command i should use to extract the data from the cdrom disk to an iso file ? (i am new to Ubuntu , just kicked out my windows :) ) [11:17] georgi: but my old macine had a configuration just like yours [11:17] koolkartik: have you installed video drivers [11:17] Randominator: X likes to auto-configure things for the most part these days. Ive not had to manually tweak it in ages.. find some old example xorg.conf files taht give the full specs and it should override the auto-configure stuff.. or you might need to tweak some hal settings/files. One normally uses nvidia-settings to SET the xorg.conf file - it may be auto-correcting some mistakes you did. [11:17] sivan26f: websearch instead: http://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&ct=res&cd=1&url=https%3A%2F%2Fhelp.ubuntu.com%2Fcommunity%2FDataRecovery&ei=Sin4SYvWMN2wtgfUqKmfDw&usg=AFQjCNH1VuOwsD6Q1z46QKFskV46swuHiQ [11:18] ola gente [11:18] dr_willis: Yea im gonna look deeper into it... [11:18] so my bios thinks I have 4096 megs of ram installed, windows claims the same, ubuntu claims i have only 3881 megabytes of ram. Running juanty 9.0.4 AMD64. Any ideas what's up with that? [11:18] ActionParsnip1:yeah i hav already checked the video card its VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation 82865G Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 02) [11:18] ActionParsnip1: yax :S [11:18] thanks hbekel [11:18] Randominator: theres also the 'randr' tools that let you change settings. I no longer have a CRT. LCD+DVI = rarely any hassles. :) [11:18] Does any version of the ati drivers work on Jaunty? [11:19] Chezerian: ive heard it depends on your exact video card. [11:19] Hi [11:19] koolkartik: read the release notes of Jaunty, Intel GFX cannot run compiz right now === anomie is now known as Guest51922 [11:19] dr_willis: mobility radeon 2600 [11:19] Chezerian: all versions work in jaunty [11:19] I'm trying to install ubuntu with the live CD on a computer with a faulty internal HDD. I want to install it on a external HDD. Before I get to the partioning step (step 4), the installation freezes. I suspect the problem is the faulty HDD. Is there any way to fool ubuntu not to recognize the internal HDD? [11:19] Randominator: its due to my CRT monitor not giving codelines [11:20] Need to master a already clean installed system into a ISO [11:20] How do I do this? [11:20] GuestFBEB6E: Disconnect the internal HDD [11:20] Benwa: maybe mount cannot correctly determine the type of the filesystem? could you add the correct line with noauto paramter and try to mount this disk again? [11:20] dr_willis: yea i know ive been "playing" with it. [11:20] Damn there are atleast 4 people with the guest nick [11:21] indus: pretty common [11:21] Benwa: add to fstab i mean [11:21] Chezerian: ask neskat if you see him later. He found a bug in the module source and submitted a patch [11:21] ya why all have nick guest? [11:21] indus: i just tried using the restricted drivers and that failed so i manually installed 9.2 but none of my games work [11:21] ActionParsnip1: so what will i do now? [11:21] GuestFBEB6E: Just yang them connections rigt off. Power that for wire plug shuld do [11:21] indus: their client sees the user attempting to connect as an already used nik so chooses a random name [11:21] ActionParsnip1:yea i think i have same problem... [11:21] Chezerian: mobility radeon 2600 hmm [11:22] koolkartik: yo ucant use compiz, you must wait or abandon compiz [11:22] GuestFBEB6E: Just yanK them connections rigt off. Power, that four wire plug should do [11:22] Randominator: sucks but as does life, its how i got mine to play nice [11:22] koolkartik: considering its only compiz and not something system critical, it will bake [11:22] somebody please let me know the contents of their /etc/pam.d/gdm so i can debug my problem [11:23] xonev: sec [11:23] ActionParsnip1: ok but i m not getting it, u mean i cant use my vga driver on jaunty.... can u please elaborate... [11:23] xonev: i dont have it [11:23] ActionParsnip1: you don't? [11:24] ActionParsnip1: are you using anything besides gnome? [11:24] hi guys! how would I disable svnserve? [11:24] xonev: i use kdm, here is my kdm file instead: http://pastebin.com/f751aa167 [11:24] It's a laptop. If I open it, the warranty voids. Can't I turn it off from within ubuntu? [11:24] ActionParsnip1: i see, thanks [11:24] koolkartik: there is a bug with intel + compiz. It doesnt work [11:25] when i type aticonfig --initial -f it says Unable to open /etc/ati/control, please reinstall the driver. [11:25] koolkartik: websearch round to find out more [11:25] GuestFBEB6E: no, but you can from BIOS [11:25] xonev: i'd imagine its massively similar [11:25] Chezerian: Like I said, the fglrx driver is currently broken. Someone found a fix yesterday, so hopefully today or tomorrow an update will be available that works. [11:25] ActionParsnip1: i think you're right [11:26] In 8.10 and earlier cgmail provided a nice notification on new email. now its just a regular popup box in the center of the screen. how do i fix this? [11:26] GuestFBEB6E: just after boot press F2 or whatever your system sais [11:26] ActionParsnip1: ohk dat means i'll not be able to enable desktop effects now..... n problem also persues with vlc and flash on youtube..:( [11:26] sgallagh: thanks but how would i go about getting 8.10 as another boot option ? === yacc__ is now known as yacc [11:27] koolkartik: then you can try the vesa driver while it gets resolved, or you could tweak your system to work maybe [11:27] hello i am having problems when i try to get networking to work with the ubuntu 9.04 install disc the NIC is a mobo integrated realtek 8139 [11:27] Can someone help me set up my stylus on my tablet? The right click and eraser doesn't work :/ [11:27] ive tried to modprobe -r 8139cp [11:27] can anyone help me stop svnserve? [11:27] and modprobe -r 8139too [11:27] and then modprobe -a 8139cp [11:27] I have just purged and reinstalled everything that has to do with sound drivers on my upgraded 9.04 Ubuntu, I have checked that alsamixer has no muted channels, I have done alsa force-reload, but I get no sound. 'aplay -l' shows the soundcard fine... Any hints what can be wrong? [11:27] younder the bios only lets me decide which devices boot or not. It does not have the option to turn off the HDD. IT's a Vaio [11:27] and modprobe -a 8139too [11:27] ActionParsnip1: vesa driver? :( [11:27] Chezerian: did you use your entire disk when setting up 9.04? [11:27] seperately but i still cant get any networking to work at all [11:28] FezK: sudo /etc/init.d/svnserve stop [11:28] koolkartik: yep, failsafe. you might find an answer in forums etc. afaik its borked [11:28] c4pt: you know that -r removes a module, right? [11:28] i used apt-get dist-upgrade [11:28] FezK: one would assume [11:28] hbekel, yeah i know [11:28] FezK: unless it's installed in inetd [11:28] hbekel, i figured id remove it then reload it again [11:28] fezK: thate a 'ps -aux' followed by a 'kill -9 ' on whatever name seems appropriarte [11:28] godonjcp: thanks!!! [11:29] hbekel, but the thing is the light on the router doesnt even show the NIC plugged in but it is plugged in [11:29] Anyone else having problems with sound after upgrading to Ubuntu 9.04? [11:29] hbekel, so i tried to plug the ethernet directly into the modem but the modem doesnt show an Ethernet light either. [11:29] hbekel, so.. [11:29] sorry, someone rang at the door... well i put it in my fstab, i mounted it with it. And... it works. The problem is i do not know if it works with windows or other ubuntu. [11:29] yeah, its not inside /etc/init.d [11:29] a-ah [11:30] Matt1s: almost surely due to permissions [11:30] hbekel, when i manually set the ipv4 address on the nic it says connected but the light doesnt come on and i cant connect to any webpages [11:30] Hey, could someone help me. I try use keytouch and lineak, but both of them are not working. I think reason for that is, gnome own shortkeys are using keyboard, and don't let other applications to configure them. Anyone have a idea how to disable gnome shortkey program? [11:30] hdparm does the trick [11:30] FezK, it's run through inetd [11:30] di i have to pu back the hidden files, any idea? [11:30] younder: what should I do? [11:30] *do [11:30] younder: i am gonna try px -aux [11:31] Matt1s: I set two groups to all [11:31] hbekel, any ideas? [11:31] i thought it was ps aux ? [11:31] c4pt: have you set your gateway as well? can you ping the router? [11:31] younder: pulse and pulse-rt ? [11:31] hbekel, well if the router sits on 192.168.2.1 that would be the gateway right? [11:31] how do I unmount all partitions on a harddrive? [11:31] c4pt: yes [11:32] GuestFBEB6E: sudo umount -a [11:32] hbekel, yeah i cant ping anything [11:32] Matt1s: g onto the sytem menu and look for administation and users [11:32] ralfm_: if its run through inetd shouldnt the script be in /etc/init.d? [11:32] hbekel, hold on i will try to ping the router [11:32] ty [11:32] holña [11:32] younder: I'm there [11:32] c4pt: also, does ifconfig confirm eth0 is up? [11:32] hi [11:32] all [11:32] Matt1s: then at the very end, look up handle groups [11:32] FezK, there is an openbsd-inetd or so there [11:33] younder: "Manage Groups" - clicked it [11:33] hbekel, ifconfig shows eth0 up [11:33] hbekel, but i cant ping the router [11:34] Can someone help me set up my stylus on my tablet it's not working after upgrading The right click and eraser doesn't work :/ [11:34] younder: done it [11:34] ralfm_: i'm confused... === Odo is now known as Odo081 [11:34] c4pt: did you use ifconfig to get eth0 up? are you sure parameters are correct? [11:34] c4pt: do you have a valid ip for your device? [11:34] hbekel, yes [11:34] Matt1s: Ok the sound system is called pulse.. [11:35] Matt1s: anable that for all users [11:35] younder: I have 'pulse-access' and 'pulse-rt' but not a group called 'pulse' [11:35] younder: oh never mind, found it [11:35] Matt1s: enable all [11:35] ActionParsnip1, yes === Odo081 is now known as Odo [11:35] ralfm_: there wasnt an openbsd-inetd in /etc/init.d.... is that what you were talking about? [11:35] FezK, "sudo /etc/init.d/openbsd-inetd stop" also stops svnserve [11:35] younder: just a question, there is also a group called 'audio' which has pulse as a member, and I'm member of audio [11:35] c4pt: can you pastebin output of ifconfig and route? [11:35] how do I list all the partitions? [11:36] younder: should it not be sufficient to be in the 'audio' group? [11:36] hbekel, how? there is no connection? [11:36] Matt1s: make youself a member [11:36] ralfm_: sudo: /etc/init.d/openbsd-inetd: command not found so maybe im running it some other way :s [11:36] Matt1s: yes it should [11:36] how do you change the computer name in 9.04? [11:36] FezK: /etc/init.d/sshd [11:36] c4pt: ahh, right ;) [11:36] c4pt: sorr [11:36] younder: I am in both 'audio' and in 'pulse', I have always been in both groups [11:36] koshari: /etc/hostname and /etc/hostts [11:36] c4pt: and if you run: route | grep UG do you see your routers IP address? [11:36] Matt1s: The thing is just apermission problem [11:37] ikonia: yup! thats there! [11:37] ill try that [11:37] younder: My user has always been in the 'pulse' group [11:37] Matt1s: Your new install messed with your permissions [11:37] FezK, "dpkg -l *inetd" should tell you which is installed [11:37] Matt1s: Better to set them explicityle [11:38] c4pt: Some kind of followed your problem. SO your connection is up and you have a valid ip for eth0? Try to adjust the MTU for eth0 for a try. Set it to... 'sudo ifconfig eth0 mtu 1492'. [11:38] younder: It has been explicitly in pulse group, I was in it when I did 'cat /etc/group' [11:38] younder: I don't think it's a permission problem :-/ [11:39] ralfm_: whoops! huge mistake... im running subversion, not svnserve :s [11:39] Matt1s: Well, It was for me [11:39] younder: ok, thanks for your help anyway [11:39] i have a problem with my hardy on 64bit pavillion.

[13:59] JJOliver: yes. also check out this handy irssi over screen guide, i found the other day http://quadpoint.org/articles/irssi [13:59] It showed a bunch of click info IIRC [13:59] JJOliver: theres really no difference in the packages ubuntu has versus the packages debian has, there even the same type (.deb) [13:59] sproaty: xev? [13:59] gartral1: I can't afford one right now so I'll just leave it at that. It's not that important at the moment, I'm not dying to use that AntSpotlight screensaver :) [13:59] jrib, that's it, thanks!! [14:00] thanks for your help [14:00] hi all.. anyone know how to make the grey ruler markers in open-office "snap" to position al'la MS-word as oppossed to how they are by default and freely movable? it makes uniformity of tables nearly impossible...

[14:01] If i've installed Ubuntu onto a USB stick using the Make bootable USB option, how/what file do I change on the USB stick to make it not prompt for language and the install/run live option???

[14:08] serious problems here. gnome locks up after I login, i can use console, but gnome puts up applications, places, and system menus, but never puts up desktop icons or the status stuff in the top right. syslog doesnt give anything useful. where else can I look? ubuntu 9.04(just installed, it worked once or twice, now doesnt) core2 quad 2.5ghz, gtx280 [14:08] @acecombat !ask [14:08] !ask | acecombat [14:08] acecombat: 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. :-) [14:08] !helpme | acecombat [14:08] acecombat: Avoid your questions being followed by a trail of "Please, help me", "Can nobody help me?", "I really need this!", and so on. This just contributes to making the channel unreadable. If you are not answered, ask again later; but see also !repeat and !patience [14:08] lucian: not sure what drivers you need, but having glx might help your on via internal hardware, so dont expect much, but sudo apt-get install aiglx [14:08] !ask [14:09] lucian: help even though you're* [14:09] am I mising something??? [14:09] !help [14:09] Hi! I'm #ubuntu's favorite infobot, you can search my brain yourself at http://ubottu.com/factoids.cgi - Usage info: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuBots [14:09] grrrrrr [14:09] acecombat, I AM NOT YOUR QUESTION [14:09] aceombat: they want you to ask your question rather than asking to ask a question [14:09] i should really change my nick [14:09] i did ask the question === simple is now known as simple_ [14:09] gartral1: it says it couldn't find the package [14:10] If i've installed Ubuntu onto a USB stick using the Make bootable USB option, how/what file do I change on the USB stick to make it not prompt for language and the install/run live option??? [14:10] lucian: the name changed, that's ok, i think i found some drivers [14:10] i asked a question, and nobody had an answer. maybe you get more responses if you ask to ask :-P [14:10] basically I just want it to boot up as a live cd from the USB stick without having to choose language and run live option each time [14:11] anyone with a laptop notice it running a bit hot since yesterday's updates? [14:11] i dont know how the start of the usb boot is configured coz I couldnt find it in the grub info [14:12] elenita: did you unplug the ethernet cable? [14:12] Hello? I need A bit of help, and from what I can tell, this is where I should be... [14:12] lucian: dosen't look like your card's supported.. [14:13] !ask If i've installed Ubuntu onto a USB stick using the Make bootable USB option, how/what file do I change on the USB stick to make it not prompt for language and the install/run live option??? [14:13] Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) [14:13] gartral1: aham, so my option is to buy another card [14:13] koolkartik: i see , that maybe the direct rendering is disabled, the reason for this is, that if you enable it, the intel bug causes the display to freeze at an certian time [14:13] lucian: yeap... there are some good deals at buy.com and newegg.com right now... [14:14] koolkartik: its seems to be an know bug , http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/releasenotes/904 [14:14] <_infidel> hello, what's the difference between " (echo In subshell;exit 0) and (echo In subshell;exit 4)"? Thnx in advance [14:14] i could sell you a geforce mx 440... but i warn you, DONT try and play dvds with the thing.... [14:14] These freezes happen particularly often on the i965 chips (359392). For that reason, desktop effects were disabled by default on this chipset in the final release. They will be re-enabled in a 9.04 Update once the problem has been fixed. [14:15] Somebody? Anybody? I'm new here, and not sure of what to do... should I just type in my problem and hope somebody notices? [14:15] cub: Don't ask to ask, just ask ;) [14:15] cub : yep [14:15] cub state question [14:15] cub: thats the way it works [14:15] I recently upgraded this computer to Ubuntu 9.04, and things have been going well. However, there is one problem that I need to solve. Almsot all the icons, in openoffice, Firefox, THinderbird, and other programs, are tiny. Not just small, tiny. Now, my mom uses this computer, and her eyes aren't so good, so this has become a really big problem. [14:15] gartral1: i bet the shipment is more expensive than the card. i'll see what i can find around here [14:15] I rarely visit the ubuntu community but but would i be a lone voice if I said I do not like kde4 desktop? === john is now known as Guest78268 [14:16] lucian: thats ok, its an AGP card anyway [14:16] tatters2: im sure youre not alone. personally, i dont give a damn [14:16] tatters2: KDE4 forced me to start using (and liking) gnome [14:16] hello everybody ! [14:16] i need some help. i have a workstation with 512 RAM, and 3 servers with 8 GB ram, and i need to share performance between my servers and workstation, first at all, ram [14:16] if i ordered a ubuntu CD once, does that mean i get new ones every 6 months? [14:16] _infidel: one returns 0 and the other 4 ? [14:17] myk_robinson: I have switched to gnome also [14:17] there's a package for me at the postage office and uubntu is the only thing i can think of [14:17] ward__, i dont think so [14:17] (since its 0 costs) [14:17] tatters2: KDE4.2 is "floofy" thats all it is, its no where near functional, and takes WAAAAY too many resources [14:17] I need to find a way to make the icons bigger. I have looked in the settings of the programs and set the icon size to "large" or "x-large" but they are still so tiny I can hardly see them. [14:17] ward__: No. [14:17] jtholmes, jpds ok thanx then i have a surprise waiting for me :-) [14:17] ward__: You have to file a separate order for a new one. [14:17] xchat seems v. different in ubuntu 9.04 now [14:17] cub: cut your display resolution a bit? [14:17] cub : only the icons or also the fonts? [14:18] this is annoying me now. i can set a new wireless ocnnection up (hidden SSID and WPA protected) and i can connect, but when i reboot and it tries to connect it keeps asking for the wpa password, and the one thats there is one long set of random numbers/letters.. does this everytime. It just wont save it [14:18] The fronts I can change. [14:18] jpds, i ordered some once but the people did not read my order and i got 4 the same CD's lol [14:18] is there a way to safely completely remove pulseaudio? i don't want to be left with no sound altogether [14:18] <_infidel> erUSUL: makes sense, got ot from a bash tutorial. Weird example. Thank you [14:18] its fine in hardy [14:18] i needed 32/64bit and server and regular [14:18] does ubuntu support graphics software like maya? [14:18] Only the icons don't seem to get any bigger. [14:18] cub: right click an stretch them [14:19] I can do that on the desktop... [14:19] cub: you can stretch in batches (i believe) [14:19] But what about Openoffice? [14:19] vegombrei: yep there is maya for linux [14:19] And Firefox? [14:19] cub : take a look at your monitor settings, what resolution is it on ( 1024x786 ? ) [14:19] unimatrix9: hmmm yeah hope dis bg will fix soon.... [14:19] serious problems here. gnome locks up after I login, i can use console, but gnome puts up applications, places, and system menus, but never puts up desktop icons or the status stuff in the top right. syslog doesnt give anything useful. where else can I look? ubuntu 9.04(just installed, it worked once or twice, now doesnt) core2 quad 2.5ghz, gtx280 [14:19] suggestion for gmail notification app? [14:19] koolkartik: i hope so too... [14:19] erUSUL: can i sudo apt-get it ? [14:20] I know it is not me, as I have installed 9.04 on about four computers without this problem. [14:20] unimatrix9: how will i come to know that this bug is fixed? [14:20] enterneo, gmail-notify [14:20] koolkartik , join the bugtracker on this bug.. [14:20] tesseracter: try removing your .gconf directory and .xsession* files from shell then log into X again [14:21] vegombrei: nope; is a comercial aplication you have to buy it on a reseller... you can apt-get blender is a 3d app similar to maya [14:21] cub , one moment [14:21] unimatrix9" Do i hav to register somewhere ? [14:21] Ok. [14:21] !info blender | vegombrei [14:21] vegombrei: blender (source: blender): Very fast and versatile 3D modeller/renderer. In component universe, is optional. Version 2.48a+dfsg-1ubuntu3 (jaunty), package size 9881 kB, installed size 25480 kB [14:21] unimatrix9" how to join bugtracker [14:21] koolkartik , i could not find the bug on the tracker , i did search.. [14:21] hi all [14:22] unimatrix9: :( [14:22] georgi welcome [14:23] erUSUL: hey is there a google earth for ubuntu? can i sudo apt get that ?? also how do i see the list sudo apts have? [14:23] how do i create a file with a size of exactly 2048 MB? [14:23] using 'dd' [14:23] cub, in nautilus ( open your home dir ) you can set some icon sizes too [14:23] vegombrei, from medibuntu [14:23] vegombrei: yes; you have it in medibuntu [14:23] !medibuntu | vegombrei [14:23] vegombrei: medibuntu is a repository of packages that cannot be included into the Ubuntu distribution for legal reasons - See http://www.medibuntu.org [14:23] cub if you have Gnome open your home directory or type in a terminal nautilus and then go to Edit -> Preferences and from there you will see that you can change the icon percentage (the size of the icons on your desktop). [14:23] i'm emulating ubuntu over virtualBOX, can i see my other hard disks? [14:23] Hi,, how do i view animated Gifs, the default pic viewer is not showing the animations..... what to install from synpantic ??? [14:24] vegombrei, get the -data package installed first though [14:24] KingKimi: any browser should be able to open them [14:24] hello, I just upgraded to ubuntu 9.04....yay!, but there are some problems. I had to close the upgrade while it was installing packages, and after that, when I rebooted everything seemed to work fine, and I ran dpkg --configure -a to finish the uprade. This installed all the other packages. What I was wondering is what I "missed" for the upgrade (i.e. what would update-manager have done if I had left it normally)? [14:24] erUSUL, I want a PIC viewer ..... [14:24] erUSUL, what to install from synpantic ? [14:24] unimatrix9: Is there any other way so dat i come to know that this bug is fixed.? [14:24] djalmaaraujo: yes you can [14:24] KingKimi: dunno [14:25] The icons on the toolbar are the only ones effected. In openoffice, Thunderbird, and Firefox, they are so small I can hardly see them, even after setting it to "x-large" in openoffice, notheing happend. My folder icons and desktop icons are fine, but anything on a toolbar (for exsample, Firfox's back button) is very small. [14:25] erUSUL, :o [14:25] djalmaaraujo: Vbox support share folders between host and quest OS [14:25] georgi, they should apper by default, but doesn't happened.. [14:25] why won't my ubuntu recognize jpgs?? [14:25] I have changed the text so it is very big. Might that be the cause? [14:25] georgi, YES, but when i share thoses folders, where they go? how can i access on ubuntu? [14:26] kyttn: what do you mean? Is there a particular program? [14:26] zamba, dd if=/dev/zero of=FILE count=1 bs=2048000 [14:26] cub, the text is big, but the icons are small? [14:26] djalmaaraujo: go to Network i suppose and there on smb shares you had to have VboxShared Folders [14:26] Yes. [14:26] jtholmes: ok, thanks :) === Mr is now known as Guest66538 [14:26] rjharv: tried that... .gnome, .gnome2, .metacity, .nautalus, etc all got deleted [14:26] But only some icons. [14:26] djalmaaraujo: you have to install guest additions [14:26] djalmaaraujo: not really sure about this btw [14:26] cub maybe set everything to how it should be and then work from that.. so font size is 12 normally [14:26] georgi i tried.. =/ [14:26] hmm [14:26] rjharv: i dont see xsession though, just .xsession-errrors [14:27] wtv ok [14:27] Ok... Trying that now... [14:27] tesseracter: try from the shell using sudo create a brandnew user and log in as that then we can work out if its your profile or the system [14:27] wtv, georgi thks. [14:27] djalmaaraujo: for further support, you can try #vbox [14:27] jtholmes: you must mean at least a couple of 0 more?

The icons stay small. [14:28] zamba, add three zeros to right of bs= value [14:28] anyone have any suggestions? [14:29] tesseracter: feel free to pm me. [14:29] rjharv: i finally got into my external harddrive, and can access all files. when i try to open a photo or image (all jpgs), it doesn't recognize them. do i need a specific plug-in or something? [14:29] jtholmes: yup.. did that [14:29] If only I could send a picture over this somehow, then I could show you what I mean... [14:29] kyttn: you shouldn't do [14:29] cub , it should work i just did the same, f you have Gnome open your home directory or type in a terminal nautilus and then go to Edit -> Preferences and from there you will see that you can change the icon percentage (the size of the icons on your desktop).

But I have no trouble with the ones on the desktop, it's the ones on the toolbars that are tiny. Stuff on Firefox such as "back, forward, reload" ect are much smaller then normal. [14:31] How would I add a command to be run every 5 hours? [14:31] But the desktop is fine. [14:31] the 'ati' driver leaves my screen strangely blurred....does anyone know how to fix this?

[14:55] Fumoh: ah. not sure how you would get around bouncing it if you dont have physical access [14:56] defrysk: its eating so much time my typing is lkagging === mrlol is now known as mrlolplx [14:56] I get this error when trying to install gyachi: http://paste.ubuntu.com/160696/. ./configure script complete with no error. Please help! [14:56] xmms problem - i've been trying to put flac plugins /usr/lib/xmms/Input is where I was supposed to place it - last time it was $home/.xmms/Plugins - this time xmms is not listing the plugin (i have both the .so and .la files in their), restarting computer / xmms has made no difference [14:56] Yeah :\ Therein lies my dilemma. [14:56] gartral1, logout-in and see if its better [14:56] I hate compiling ... lol \ [14:56] Fumoh: there is a setting for SSH that will disallow root use.. I'm not sure where to point you to check that though. [14:56] * defrysk has to afk [14:56] so how do I upgrade to 9.04 from the cmdline? This is a headless machine so I could actually also switch to "ubuntu-server" if I new how. [14:56] !xmms | kaveh [14:56] *knew [14:56] kaveh: xmms is no longer being developed, see http://bugs.debian.org/461309 for more details. Consider using audacious, bmpx, or xmms2 instead. [14:56] scunizi: I'm pretty sure it's in the /etc/ssh/sshd_config [14:56] Nah i've checked that, root logins are allowed. Plus I can't log in as a normal user either, so it's something to do with whatever handles logins. [14:57] Shadow_Sam, sure [14:57] What does handle login stuff in linux? [14:57] i know xmms is no longer being developed, however many people still use it, it is a comfortable player that is small and uses little system resources compared to others [14:57] What client for irc are people using irssi or xchat? [14:57] xchat [14:57] xchat [14:57] irssi [14:57] xchat [14:57] weechat [14:57] a number of distros still come with xmms as default player [14:57] !poll [14:57] Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task. It's up to you to choose, depending on your preferences, features you require, and other factors. Do NOT take polls in the channel. If you insist on getting people's opinions, ask BestBot in #ubuntu-bots. [14:57] my brother is using xmms with the exact same files in the exact same places [14:58] my colleague just passed a laptop with ubuntu installed with his user account. How can i make install another new root account and delete the his one? [14:58] xchat is bloated like ubuntu [14:58] Fumoh: Depends on what you want. gdm, kdm, ar the login managers for nome or kde. user managment is done with users-admin [14:58] sheryl_: you need to add yourself to the admin group [14:58] Azur3Light: still no new packages [14:58] yeah... and for music players I use Music Player Daemon ;P [14:58] I think im going to get irssi.. sec [14:58] how do i check the logs === TheRAt is now known as Guest73632 [14:58] Well it's whatever handles logins that's segfaulting... I'm trying to figure out if there's a way to kill that process and restart it or something. [14:58] if you want sane defualts go with weechat.. [14:58] sheryl_: that will give you sudo rights [14:58] kaveh: so is audacious which is a fork of xmms and I think will either use the same plugins or has their own of the same variety [14:58] Serenka1: do u have the kubuntu-desktop packege ? [14:59] because I only get a segfault when I try to log in/su. [14:59] Azur3Light: I also tried through the terminal [14:59] Hello all, the is any drivers for creative audio board? [14:59] ok i got it [14:59] *there is [14:59] Azur3Light: well its like Synaptic is not seeing anything new on the Kubuntu CD [14:59] Fumoh: litterly with "su" ? on an ubuntu system? [14:59] scunizi, also the MIgration wizard does not include THunderbird mail migration . is there any other automated way of doin tht or do i have 2 copy the profile manually as extensively used everywhere esle ? [14:59] Fumoh: try 'sudo kill gdm'. Are you sure that is the login manager. Could be the xserver too. [14:59] LinuxApe: You were right on.. that did the trick. Thanks! [14:59] InCrypto: ? [14:59] Serenka1: edit the /etc/apt/source.list and comment all other sources except the CD [15:00] Fumoh: 'sudo killall gdm' ... [15:00] DaveIngram: Like to help when I can! [15:00] sheryl_: so what i would do is boot into a single user shell and then adduser sheryl and then edit /etc/group to add sheryl to admin. im not sure about a safer gui tool for that. depends on if you have his username and password at the moment === coleys_ is now known as Coleys [15:00] Azur3Light: I reloaded the CD through the terminal and its all good ... [15:00] Serenka1: then run sudo apt-get update , and you are supposed to see only the one from the cd [15:00] Unfortunately, when I try to sudo or su, once I type in my password I get a segfault. [15:00] scunizi, Migration wizrad during the initail setup ..i have a winxp HDD ..which has Thunderbird mails .. instead of copy pasting the profile i was lookin @ a more automated way of doin things ...is tht possible ? [15:00] Azur3Light: but then I do sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop and it says it cannot find it [15:00] cuz in 8.10 i did it manually [15:01] pepperjack, i have it. how to boot into single user shell? [15:01] It's whatever low level process handles logins that's segfaulting (from what I can see). [15:01] http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=7175110 [15:01] whatvn: try running autogen.sh instead of/before configure [15:01] Serenka1: did you update? sudo apt-get update? [15:01] I'm probably just beating my head against the wall, but unfortunately I don't have physical access to the box right now so I can't manually reboot it. [15:01] InCrypto: well.. you could use the backup/restore feature built into thunderbird [15:01] Azur3Light: maybe it will only work with the alternate CD? [15:01] hbekel: I run autogen already [15:01] Fumoh: Please use my nick, when talking to me.. ( I get alerted ) === htrej is now known as htrejh [15:02] how do check the error why a n application crashed [15:02] scunizi, i have a seperate NTFS drive ..wud tht be faeasible ? [15:02] minimec: will do, sorry 'bout that ;) [15:02] Fumoh: f1 should give you a console. Can you get that? [15:02] sheryl_: well if you have his username and pass it isnt necessary. just login as him and then open a terminal and type sudo adduser sheryl or whatever username. then gksudo /etc/group and let me know when you have the group file open. this isnt the easiest way but im not too familiar with the fance graphical tools [15:02] Serenka1: go to System->Administration->Software Sources [15:02] InCrypto: can you still boot into windows? if so do that.. backup.. then boot ubuntu and mount the ntfs partition and "restore" [15:02] Azur3Light: yep .. been there ... [15:03] Serenka1: there is option there for install from CD [15:03] minimec: Unfortunately no, I'm ssh'ed in to the box from work, so I don't have physical access. [15:03] every time i restart my server it does this stupid fsck on a disk and fails and tells me to fsck manually or press ctrl-d to continue. i cannot have boot halted and have no way of ssh'ing to the machine. it has no monitor or keyboard. How do i remove this drive from the auto-fsck list? [15:03] Azur3Light: yep ... there is the Ubuntu CD in there [15:03] minimec: Starting a new SSH session doesn't work either. SSH gives me a login/password prompt, but once I enter in my credentials I'm immediately disconnected (from the segfault). [15:03] Azur3Light: can I get the Kubuntu CD in there too? [15:03] scunizi, thts manual :D [15:03] an application is crashing . how do icheck the error .is there any terminal command. [15:03] hi, http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=fglrx&searchon=names&suite=all§ion=all reports that all fglrx packages exist for jaunty as well. Why does the update tool warn me that those packages are missing? [15:03] Fumoh: So you are logged in to that box now? [15:04] InCrypto: that's as automated as it gets with thunderbird [15:04] G'day [15:04] minimec: Yeah, it's a session I left open from yesterday. [15:04] scunizi, :D [15:04] Serenka1: yep just add the CD-Rom in Third_party Software Tab [15:04] Azur3Light: thats what I have been doing [15:04] minimec: something happened overnight that's causing any new logins to segfault. [15:04] Hey I'm trying to access my Hard-disk from wubi, how is that done? [15:04] Fumoh: If you killed the login-manager now typing 'sudo killall gdm' for ubuntu... [15:05] rrockon: Which distro? [15:05] who had the slow partitioner during install? [15:05] Serenka1: well i suppose this had to work [15:05] Serenka1: if there is no kubuntu-desktop packet try with kde4-base [15:06] j've got ati 4850 and j've got very low preformace i use ati's driver from official net page what j must do to change it ?? [15:06] minimec: Tried that, but GDM isn't running (I start at runlevel 3 and only fire up X when I need it), and anytime I try to sudo I segfault after typing in my password, so the command is never executed. [15:06] Azur3Light: It mounts it and unmounts it and then it looks like its added in third party sources but not in the other area [15:06] sheryl_: i looked up the gui way. basically login and click System --> administration --> users and groups. once that is open click the unlock button itll prompt for your password. then you can add a user and then click manage groups to add them to admin group and whatever other groups you like. [15:06] minimec: I'm starting to think I'm screwed until I can get home and reboot :) [15:06] Is there a wiki for notify-osd where I can provoke one using command? [15:07] Fumoh: So you rather have a sudo or user problem, and not a login problem... === onats_ is now known as onats [15:07] Too bad there isn't remove restart "_" [15:07] mobi-sheep: use "notify-send" (i think from "libnotify-bin") [15:07] Fumoh: I mean you are logged in right now... [15:07] pepperjack, Ya, i am currently reading as well. Thanks for your information. :) [15:07] Serenka1: if it is enabled remove all other sources , update and it should work === yacc_ is now known as yacc [15:08] j've got ati 4850 and j've got very low preformace i use ati's driver from official net page what j must do to change it ?? [15:08] Fumoh: Does the logged in user have sudo rights? [15:08] bartek: Which ubuntu are you using? [15:08] minimec: Well I say it's a login problem, because it's not just with su/sudo, it's also when trying to log in to ssh. I'm logged in right now, because this is a session that I started yesterday before this problem came up. So whatever process that handles authentication is segfaulting. My session from yesterday still works because I was already authenticated. [15:08] 9.04 [15:09] with all update [15:09] system > admin > hardware drivers? [15:09] minimec: Yep, I do have sudo rights. [15:09] hi [15:09] Does it have ati drivers there? Im an nvidia user, but im assuming you would get your working ati drivers there. === CShadowRun is now known as cshadowrun === Mud is now known as Mud|afk [15:10] yes but j downloadet and install ati drivers from official main page [15:10] Fumoh: It doesn't seem to be a firewall or routing thing too, as you can see the machine, but not authenticate... [15:10] bartek_: Your likely better off using drivers supplied through 'hardware drivers' [15:11] minimec: yep. Definitely weird. Oh well, I'll just wait till I get home to reboot the machine. I'll have to do without my proxy at work today ;) [15:11] There's probably a reccommended one, that you would be best off using. === rob0t7 is now known as rob0t7_ [15:11] ok i'll try thx [15:11] LjL: Thanks. That worked. It's similar to notify-lib. Just call the same thing. :) [15:12]
I have a borked Mac-Mini and need some help getting it re-set [15:12] what is borked dd? [15:13] Fumoh: Lt's hope for the best... [15:13] jelly12gen: it means broken [15:13] jelly12gen same thing as kafoozled right dd? [15:14]
seriously borked. I have the OS X install stuck in the drive, I have grub seizing control of the startup process, but without any setup data for intrepid 8.10 server... and I'm not sure what's left on the drive after a 'helpful' techy decided to use gparted to delete various partitions... [15:14]
if I could even just eject the CD, I could stick an ubuntu install cd backin [15:15] Pici: wow that helped him allot [15:15] dd, are you dual booting? or just using Ubuntu?

I thought that I had a USB ubuntu installed, but can't get grub to see the USB device (root (hd1,0)... and upwards doesn't seem to work) [15:16] dd if you still have mac installed possibly... you could boot into mac, and maybe your eject would work there. Or.. is the disc physically stuck? [15:17] dd: did you do the left mouse button on boot thing for ejecting the cd? [15:17]
how coleys? Grub pops up, and that's it. Tried holding down the alt/option key to bring up the Mac OS default loader - no joy [15:17]
yup [15:17] !upgrade [15:17] For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes - see also http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/upgrading [15:17] hmm... is there an ubuntu desktop disk inside?

[15:17] dd really be more clear is it physical stuck or what [15:17] If so can you change the boot order before grub? [15:18] i have a problem i have OpenGEU 8.10 and i want to upgrade to ubuntu 9.04 will my opengeu became ubuntu or it will stay with the e17 [15:18] by pressing esc or I don't know the keys in mac..

( I Dont know if macs have eject button on their drives) [15:19] dd: lastly, there's this link, see post by "Inkling" on removing the top of the drive to lift of the cd: http://forums.macrumors.com/showthread.php?t=233857 [15:19] can anyone explain how i download and install audio drivers?

coleys, no an OS X installed disk [15:19]
Did I mention that it was borked! ;-) [15:19] lang2k7: !audio [15:19]
I guess you're started to see what borked means [15:20]

[15:24]
mbeierl1, coleys : re my previous question, suppose I get knifing on this Mac Mini, extract the DVD, how do I then reformat the drive from an ubuntu installer CD? [15:24] Yeah you will need to figure out how to boot from disc once you get the ubuntu(desktop, or alternate) disc in the drive. [15:24] hi which ubuntu distro should i use for starters? [15:24] InCrypto: open up a shell (ctrl + alt +f2) then as root edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf and remove the high res setting [15:24] ubuntu/kubuntu [15:24] On the desktop version there is software called gparted [15:24] dd: the ubuntu installer gives you partitioning help [15:25] hmmmmm... [15:25] is kubuntu recommended or ubuntu? [15:25]
righto. will get knifing... [15:25] dd: sorry to hear it, best of luck [15:25] minimec, well...i dont have one....no way to do it then, huh. any way to disable the new thing that is used (actually, what is the new config thing called, maybe i can google some info on that) [15:25] mib_ceeoq8: personal preference [15:25] Yeah good luck dd!! [15:25] curse this laptop keyboard [15:25] rjharv, thnx :) [15:25] rrockon: ok [15:25] and it's lack of a proper pageup/pagedown [15:25] My computer just crashed, how do I find out why?

[15:25] rrockon: so make a keybindings for it [15:25] !next [15:25] Sorry, I don't know anything about next [15:25] dd: do you know if this is a ppc or intel chip inside the mini? [15:25] I like xubuntu.. best on resources! :) [15:26] jelly12gen: :) [15:26] Coleys: lies, use openbox [15:26] hbekel: that didnt work here :P [15:26] !webcam [15:26] Instructions for using webcams with Ubuntu can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Webcam - Supported cams: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsMultimediaWebCameras [15:26] jelly: I'll probably check that out if I end up using ubuntu for more then "hey let's see if this works" [15:26] :P [15:26] im a liar :( [15:26] mib_ceeoq8, xubuntu is good, but if you have a decent computer, ubuntu or kubuntu will *probably* give you a better epxerience [15:26] gwildor: What device do you want to configure? You could also use an old hardy live CD and copy the autogenerated xorg.conf... [15:26] gwildor: no , computer experience may vary [15:27] is it true that my usb devices will work out of the box with the new ubuntu versioN? [15:27] mib_ceeoq8: 256-512mb ram id consider xubuntu otherwise there isnt a compelling reason unless you just like it (i do) [15:27] can anyone tell me how to remove a wlan interface without removing (unplugging) it from the pc, i mean only in the list of interfae [15:27] minimec, mostly i neeed to enable SHMconfig, so i can use syndeamon to turn of touch-click while typing on my touchpad. [15:27] cinterfaces... [15:27] from shell where is the "Recently Opened Files" list stored in gnome? [15:27] madMarco: sudo ifdown IFACE [15:27] madMarco: sudo ifconfig wlan0 down? [15:27]

[15:28] mib_ceeoq8: you can always install kubuntu-desktop also and then just choose between kde and gnome at login screen [15:29] why on earth can't there be bare disk images for Ubuntu? [15:29]
thanks Coleys [15:29] is there such a comman as sudo aptitude safe-upgrade or similar [15:29] mib_ceeoq8: see which one you like [15:29] faileas: bare image that can be dd'ed onto a USB stick [15:29] dd: it didn't boot from the cd? [15:29] help! I have an XFS issue... [15:29] gordonjcp: oh, there's apps that do that i suppose [15:29] dd: Hmm... do you notice... like a display that says press escape to change options? When you first start your mac? [15:29] mindnull, asus eee ??? [15:29] well thanks for ignoring me guys, this SUPPORT channel has been so helpful i must remember to call back soon when i have a more fitting problem, like what version i should install!!! If this is ubuntu's idea of support its not the distro for me! [15:29] how to filter the updates so that i get only the really necessary updates [15:29] faileas: yeah, but the apps are fiddly and hard to use [15:29] lotr1 yes it is called synaptic [15:29] rjharv damn but i can install the 9.04 kernel ?? right just the kernel and it will be ok [15:29] :P [15:29] dd: mac? hold "c" at boottime [15:29] is there a way to reset the video drivers ....like a refresh [15:29] faileas: and they're not installed by default [15:29] my laptop doesn't automatically boot from disc, I have to press escape at first screen, and then press F9 to choose to boot from disc. [15:30] dd: when you get the grub prompt, can you go ahead and boot and give the output of uname -a? [15:30] lotr1, where you can pick and choose what to install with granularity [15:30] granularity what is that [15:30] Dillizar: you're likely to hit some dependancy problems with libc etc etc [15:30] dd: what ubuntu install cd are you using? what version? [15:31] My XFS root filesystem is acting strange... [15:31]
cuddlefish: no, it just ejects the CD [15:31]
uname -a .... hang on a tick [15:32] Can Openbox use compiz? [15:32] jtholmes i checked google and wikipedia no idea what granularity is [15:32] any1 that has despotify, can you confirm that the latest version from svn doesn't work with spotify's search functions? [15:32] dd: ok... the reason I ask is if it's a ppc, I think the newest ubuntus don't support it [15:32] damn IE8 sucks so bad its slow fark [15:32]
mbeierl1: unrecognized command - ubuntu 8.10 server [15:32] or if you have another version, does despotify work for you at all ? [15:32] Coleys: no, compiz is a wm itself [15:32] dd: uname ? unrecognized command? [15:33] your using the server edition? Any specific reason? [15:33]
mbeier1: no I can't go ahead and boot. [15:33] Oh.. Silly me :p [15:33] lotr1, granularity = fine as in multiple choices in the original message [15:33] alguém fala minha lingua? [15:33]

[15:52] como hago para dejar este server irc.irc-hispano.org como fijo en xchat?

[16:03] heya. I installed 9.04 yesterday and it worked fine. then, this morning, fsck found errors in the FS (ext3) and repaired some stuff. then it worked again. suddenly in the afternoon the FS was readonly and now I can't boot because it can't mount the disk to /root with "EXT3-fs error" and all that stuff. [16:03] any ideas what to do? [16:03] p-f: at least, not if the files are growing [16:03] InCrypto: can you browse the server and it's repos on http [16:03] LjL: which is why I said it was wrong and was looking for something that could do it [16:03] ikonia, servers namely would be ?

[16:03] I'd prefer to use gnumeric instead of OOo [16:04] p-f: well no you said it was wrong because it wouldn't work with several files correctly [16:04] LjL: I guess I could use watch [16:04] hey everyone [16:04] InCrypto: the ones in your sources.list [16:04] ikonia, lemme check [16:05] ikonia: nthing came out .. becos i configured the disk for virtual center storage where all the VM(Virtual machine) will be stored in it. i am able to see the stuff inside the disk only when i access into my virtual center and browse it, but on the local system, i am not able to see anything [16:05] ikonia, http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/%20intrepid%20universe The requested URL /ubuntu/ intrepid universe was not found on this server.

Now if I first reinstall Grub using "Grub Editor" from inside my running OS, and then perform the move to ext4 using shell from a liveCD, will I be able to boot ? [16:13] InCrypto: thats someone elses list - I don't advise you use it, it has additional repos in [16:13] incorrect: i think they would need to identify the bottleneck run top check disk io etc [16:13] I am looking for a way to copy all files of a certain type from a series of sub-directories with the same parent directory to a different directory [16:13] is there a single command to accomplish that?

So my question is, what command do i use to access into the iscsi disk that i've set? [16:16] i think if you run the cp *.somthing command it applies to all subdirectories [16:16] Extreme_b: is this on vmware ? [16:17] nope the vmware is on another host . jus use iscsi on ubuntu to connect to the vmware on another host [16:17] ikonia:nope the vmware is on another host . jus use iscsi on ubuntu to connect to the vmware on another host [16:18] Extreme_b: is the data on the disk raw, or a vmware disk ? [16:18] zelhar: do you mean to upgrade without formatting ?

[16:22] Is there an equivalent to sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg that works with Jaunty? [16:22] Paradigm_Shift: you can either script it like that using bash or use xargs. basically change the cp to an echo so you can see what it is doing. so in a terminal type: for i in `find /home/`; do echo $i; done so $i will be then /home /home/$USER etc. just run find ./ to see the result. you could also do find /home/$USER/parentdir | grep .whateverextension | xargs -i cp {} /newdirectory [16:22] pitbullthe1st: its easy [16:22] It might be easy but its not if you dont know how [16:23] zelhar: system > partition manager [16:23] in the past I used that to add on higher resolutions, but I seem to be stuck with a lower resolution on Jaunty [16:23] 407 authentication error ...but i have th right authntication ..did a proxy export vai cmd and it wrked fine [16:23] it seems like, when copying files from UDF to ext/fat/whatever, ubuntu is not happy with files without any file ending. do you guys know anything about it?

[16:24] InCrypto: if you're getting an auth error - you don't have the right credentials/setup [16:24] InCrypto: you should mention that sort of thing from the start [16:24] JAUNTY it is. DO you mean "gparted" ? [16:24] hi ikonia [16:24] ikonia, i can browse via HTTP ... so it cannot be a proxy issue .. hitting apt-get update resolves all the urls [16:24] yes well i can see it would be ok if you can address them like you just did to me but how do you do that ? [16:24] ikonia, i DO have the right credentials [16:24] InCrypto: http is NOT the same settings [16:24] on hardy, in time-admin, everything except the help and close button is disabled... [16:24] pepperjack, yes, i get an error: "Input/output error" [16:24] ikonia, didnt get u [16:24] pitbullthe1st: if you have a question, just ask [16:25] InCrypto: you have to configure/tell synaptic to either use the same settings as your browser OR configure it manually [16:25] pepperjack: thank you kindly. I am in over my head when it comes to scripting, but there is no time like th present to dive in and see how fast I drown! ;) [16:25] cd [16:25] ...but i'd like to activate ntp, how can i do this?

[16:27] any suggestions ikonia ?> [16:27] can I do that while the partition is still mounted ?\ [16:27] ok I have a problem in kdenlive where it will not use the web cam on my laptop it gos to start it but then it fails the cam will work in cheese [16:27] InCrypto: yes, setup synaptic to use the proxy service [16:27] zelhar: it is done when the partition is mounted [16:27] what are the benefits of ext4 filesystem? [16:27] is it faster ? [16:27] heh [16:28] DaveWM: yes it is faster...but it's still got some bugs.... [16:28] DaveWM, people claim it is. I don't really notice a difference. [16:28] i get this: "Please run e2fsck on the filesystem" [16:28] DaveWM, if you want a stable system stick to ext3 for the time being. I've had several kernel panic on ext4. [16:29] How do I make grep output only the filename containing "string"? [16:29] ah [16:29] kewl [16:29] zelhar: ok...if you want it done...do it step by step...now that you have done the previous command.........type : sudo fsck -pf /dev/sda6 [16:29] i'm using it on an eee pc atm... with the ssd [16:29] just wondering if there was a diff [16:29] on hardy, in time-admin, everything except the help and close button is disabled...even as root! [16:29] Dave, how do you rate 9.04 on EEE PC's? [16:29] ...but i'd like to activate ntp, how can i do this? [16:29] well, live it sucks [16:29] half the stuff doesnt work live [16:30] but when you install it, suddenly everything works, and its pretty sweet [16:30] Dave: i ordered 10 Dell normal lappies, very bummed about that with the news of 9.04 rocking hard on netbooks. [16:30] my aim is to copy the content of an UDF filesystem to an usb drive / my desktop. seems like udftools /nautilus do not like files with no file ending, because those are not copied - those with file ending are copied :( [16:30] although i'm still trying to figure out how to get the bluetooth to work right [16:30] ah ok, sounds good though. [16:30] and also i think the eee-applet doesnt seem to work [16:30] but, overall its pretty sweet, [16:30] I get this: "WARNING!!! Running e2fsck on a mounted filesystem may cause [16:30] SEVERE filesystem damage." [16:30] im thinking about migrating most of the companies laptops to 9.04 from 8.04, you think thats a good idea? [16:30] zelhar: carry on [16:31] zelhar, it aint lyin [16:31] one note though [16:31] zelhar: You need to unmount the filesystem before you run fsck [16:31] every time i restart my server it does this stupid fsck on a disk and fails and tells me to fsck manually or press ctrl-d to continue. i cannot have boot halted and have no way of ssh'ing to the machine. it has no monitor or keyboard. How do i remove this drive from the auto-fsck list? [16:31] zelhar: don't do it [16:31] i did alternate cd, and selected UNR as the only task [16:31] pronoy_: stop that now [16:31] i wish the desktop looked like the login screen [16:31] pronoy_: don't advise people to damage their system [16:31] the login screen is sexy...

[16:31] Automatic login ftw! :) [16:31] ikonia: i have done it before..and i didn't damage the file system [16:31] OK I am not doing it now, I will run a liveCD and do it unmounted [16:32] pronoy_: because YOU got away with it, you don't suggest it as the norm to other peoples [16:32] zelhar: halt !! wait a minute [16:32] zelhar: very sensible [16:32] I just need to know how to reistall grub [16:32] DaveWM, take a photograph of the login screen then make it your desktop [16:32] ikonia: its just that i got the same warning and it worked [16:32] hehe [16:32] !wfm| pronoy_ [16:32] pronoy_: Common Sense: Just because you can, does not mean you should (and especially recommend to others). Think before you do. "Works for me" does not mean it is ok. The latest version of everything is not always useful if you aim for stability. Please see http://geekosophical.net/random/worksforme/ [16:32] ikonia: but i guess you are right [16:32] pronoy_: and I've just told you - because YOU got away with it, you don't suggest it as the "normal" thing to do for other users [16:32] How do I make grep output only the filename containing "string"?

How do I go about correcting my problem? [16:35] Is there any way I can check where grub is currently installed ?

[18:35] Hymnosis: k3b, every time [18:35] mimiloon: you can try without and then with, but I think the path issue is your main problem [18:35] gluegun, don't know exactly what gives, but I know that if you kill nautilus Desktop icons stop appearing, just running it again solves the problem. At least in my experience. [18:35] hmmm [18:35] the files in my $HOME/Desktop no longer appear on my "Desktop". [18:35] vocx: yup. that's the idea. [18:35] im gonna try gnomebaker [18:35] How would I go about making sure my asla is completely up to dat apt-get update alsa? [18:35] failing to print to my mac-shared printer from 9.04.

[18:37] kociak: i tried ./scriptname but it didn't do exactly what was in the command and that was to open a folder [18:37] gluegun: Is... your home folder showing up as your desktop?

[18:38] does it also mean that the module is enabled? [18:38] its connected to what I thought was a realtek on board put lspci lists it as a Intel Corporation 82801I (ICH9 Family) HD Audio Controller (rev 03) [18:39] dulak: does it also mean that the module is enabled? [18:39] hisa: lsmod shows active modules in the running kernel [18:39] coleys: when my desktop dissappeared, the new shiny jaunty logout/shutdown button where your name appears together with also dissappeard. so i have to manually add a red logout button so i can logout of my desktop.

[18:45] hi [18:45] Since I upgraded to 9.04 there has been a graphic distortion on the right side of my monitor... I use a notebook with x1300 video card. Does anyone know what that could be?? [18:45] check the drivers [18:45] I cannot play any video file in ubuntu 9.04... jaunty.. please help [18:45] My nautilus seems to be linked against both .7 and .11 versions of that lib, although the package info package just mentions .11. [18:45] marco_Dr: just courious, what driver are you using? [18:45] bah I cant find the package. [18:45] grifter188, How can i find that out?? [18:45] marco_Dr: you should check the drivers [18:45] Is there some special you have to do to make network manager work in 9.04? [18:46] luckydev: Open up rhythmbox [18:46] hisa, How do I check the drivers? [18:46] luckydev: allow it to search for drivers, three times.

Previous versions support as an add-on. [18:48] hisa, The only thing that showed up was the modem driver... is that normal?? [18:48] luckydev: Yeah, but it should automatically ask if you would like to search for the files required. [18:48] I have a question about programming. If I create a program in Code::Blocks IDE and then compile and run it, it runs, but it never creates an executable? Do I need something else to link it? [18:48] marco_Dr : could be normal [18:48] thanks dulak!! [18:48] luckydev: It found all of them for me, including avi. [18:49] grifter188, How can I find out about the video driver specifically? [18:49] since Jaunty has been released can I get advice in here or do i still need to go to ubuntu+1? [18:49] hisa: lsmod only shows modules that are inserted into the kernel currently, modprobe -l shows all modules available, inserted or not [18:49] How do i see dir's named .somthing in terminal ? [18:49] is ubuntu tweak safe to install? will it not have any "dangerous" issues associated with Automatix? [18:49] marco_Dr: I'm actually looking in the interface for you... [18:49] In ubuntu (Running 8.04) . The root's crontab file i would expect to run jobs with uid,gid = 0 (root).... so the processes that are started by root's crontab should be running as root... but i get permission errors often... and get many inconsistent results which are nearly impossible to debug ... because the crontab behaves differently than the shell i test in..... How is the crontab execution environment for root any different than the e [18:49] xecution environment for root shell with "sudo -s" ? [18:49] and files for that matter [18:49] grifter188, Thank you! [18:49] it depends on your hardware ... I have a nvidia graphics card and I had to enable propietary driver to get it working correctly at full resolution, and be able to use compiz [18:49] Dreamglider: ls -la [18:49] luckydev: Also you can just do... sudo apt-get install libavformat52 [18:49] i have installed all the gstreamer plugins for all video formats.. what happens is that ,, When i right click a video file and click 'play'... the software (vlc,totem and mplayer) just opens and closes immediately. this happens when i load the video file from the software (FILE->Open ) also..

[18:50] luckydev: Also you can just do... sudo apt-get install libavformat52 [18:50] luckydev: try that? [18:50] hisa: on the install of your 9.04 did it say your card was not supported, then you installed the driver after it was installed??? by any chance? === Digger is now known as QRT [18:50] luckydev I'm having the same issue I haven't found a solution yet :-( === QRT is now known as qrt [18:50] gluegun, I have used ubuntu tweak for over a year now without issues. it uses .deb packages to install the applications.

[18:52] JohnSourcer: isn't that one amd64 compatible? [18:52] JohnSourcer the AMD64 is the one you want.

[18:58] hello [18:58] marco_Dr: wiki link for driver... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fglrx , it says it's supported but Ubuntu has not included it. [18:58] Slart, 9.10 Karmic Koala [18:59] is there a more capable terminal available for gnome than gnome-terminal? Looking for something along the lines of konsole features (split views, etc) [18:59] Can someone help with setting static IP in ubuntu server?:p tried som tutorials, but none has worked... Would appreciate a step-by-step :) [18:59] MerlinW: thanks =) [18:59] anyone have any issues with quiet sound and how to rectify with jaunty? [18:59] terminator ? [18:59] i even tried it with VLC, the same error happens.. [18:59] ubottu, i'm not trying to let him guess root password. i'm assuming he already did "sudo passwd root" [18:59] Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) [18:59] grifter188, fglrx is available on Ubuntu [18:59] marco_Dr: when I try to upgrade my Ubuntu to 9.04 it says my card is not supported... I was wondering if I could just install it afterwards... but it looks like from your experience it doesn't work [18:59] Slart: reinstalling gvfs did not work to fix my issue. I'm hoping an uninstall/reinstall will do it. [18:59] ubottu, and then so he can do "su" [18:59] Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) [18:59] jbwiv, terminator [18:59] Jaunty working only wit the fgrlx driver from the repo (restricted drivers) [18:59] oh, i didn't know. [18:59] at the moment [18:59] gluegun: ubuntu doesn't come with a root passwd and I think the policy here is not to recommend it [19:00] mixer and main sound at 100% is like hrmm 30% of winbloze volume [19:00] not working with the offical 9.4 ati driver [19:00] joaopinto: marco_Dr does not see the driver in the list... his graphics are messed it [19:00] gluegun: just go with sudo and it's switches.. [19:00] all right xvii69, i don't recommend you do it. :) [19:00] the repo has newer unoffical ati driver [19:00] cajun: ok..hope you get it fixed [19:00] joaopinto: cool...I'll take a look. Thanks [19:00] Hello everyone. [19:01] I think I caught swine flu from McDonalds. [19:01] MerlinW: so even though the upgrade SAYS it isn't going to work it will still work from the restriced drivers??? just making sure. [19:01] !ot | NeoGeo64 [19:01] NeoGeo64: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics. Thanks! [19:01] if you absolutely have to have a root shell, use sudo -i [19:01] Dulak: sudo bash is another way [19:01] NeoGeo64, they said it's not really swine flu. it's german measles. [19:01] gluegun: oh.. and ubottu is a bot.. he's nice and all.. but still a bot =) [19:01] Slart: If i select "Computer" from the "PLaces" menu, i get the following error msg: Could not display "computer:". Nautilus cannot handle "computer" locations. [19:01] happosade, i have all the codecs installed. I even installed VLC , VLC is also opening and closing immediately when i try to open the video files.. if i don have codecs... it would have said me clearly.. though i have all the codecs installed in the system now.. [19:01] MerlinW: 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 [19:02] How do you get rid of a process that's "still running" but not showing up? (Firefox) [19:02] Slart, yup, didn't notice that at first. [19:02] grifter188, The system is working fine, the only problem is the annoying graphic distortion on the right side of the screen. It is REALLY annoying. [19:02] This has been happening since I had a kernel error a few weeks ago when my laptop went to sleep. [19:02] felixsulla, you can open a terminal and type 'killall firefox' [19:02] guys, i'm using 8.10... is there an apps that support webcam with yahoo messenger???? [19:03] cajun: hmm.. never seen that one before.. but nautilus can get weird sometimes [19:03] h00k: Thanks! [19:03] marco_Dr : try this .... System->Administration->Hardware Testing... go though that [19:03] anyone else getting a few errors with the latest 9.4 updates? [19:03] gharz: I heard about one a while ago [19:03] I just want to say I installed Ubuntu on my dad's laptop and told him its windows vista [19:03] happosade, even the OGV files are not playing.. [19:03] Anyone know if we can get xmodmap back? [19:03] and he doesnt know the difference [19:03] felixsulla, you're welcome! Also, feel free to check out System Monitor from your System menu [19:03] grifter188, i had offical 94 driver on 8.10, and after upgrade the x crashed. after i removed all fglrx packages, and installed jaunty restricted driver, it was ok [19:03] dooglus: really? any idea what it is? [19:03] gharz: im apps that support webcams aren't that common on linux.. there are a few I think, not sure if they work with yahoo though.. [19:03] gharz: I'll see if I can find [19:03] porter1: it's gone? [19:03] grifter188, Nothing happened. [19:04] MerlinW: ok did you do all this through the command line??? with apt-get???? [19:04] gharz: Linux doens't support most webcams, much less video IM. [19:04] dooglus: thanks! [19:04] heh [19:04] hi [19:04] is it possible to use dri2 with r300 chips in jaunty? [19:04] grifter188, The cursor showed it loading up but nothing happened. [19:04] gharz, check out Kopete messenger [19:04] NeoGeo64: i think AMSN supports webcam with msn messenger. [19:04] wow ebox is great [19:04] Only a handfull of cams actually work flawlessly on Linux [19:04] slart, well, the wiki is saying that it has been replaced by the x keyboad extension [19:04] gharz: gyachi? [19:04] h00k: I like learning new terminal commands, too but cool! [19:04] Slart: others have had issues also but no one seems to be able to figure out a fix. updating gvfs supposedly works but I have the most recent version. [19:04] dooglus: ok. [19:04] porter1: try installing x11-xserver-utils .. it might already be installed though [19:04] And I'm trying to remap my apple keyboad to work right [19:04] i'll check that one out. [19:04] thanks! [19:04] NeoGeo64, actually, quite a few webcams are supported. [19:05] marco_Dr: ok do you know how to use the command line in Linux... I think I see what MerlinW is talking about [19:05] Your best bet: Buy hardware that supports Linux. Don't support companies who release subpar hardware with windows only support [19:05] gharz: http://gyachi.sourceforge.net/ [19:05] grifter188, yep, in kernel recovery mode: apt-get remove --purge fglrx* - after start x with radeon driver [19:05] I need assistance debugging pam_group.so the group.conf file is not accepting the domain seperator \ or it's escaped version \\ [19:05] joapinto: Thanks for the help, I will need to download the openjdk too then... but that still doesn't explain how it might be possible to install the java6-bin/java6-jre on jaunty.... It's the official Sun Java version. [19:05] is there any problem with my drivers for video playback [19:05] cajun: hmm.. I'll try googling around.. if I find anything I'll let you know [19:05] dooglus: thanks!!!! [19:05] grifter188, and finally installed the built in restricted driver [19:05] is there an option that can be placed after the require pam_group.so which will enable additional debugging? [19:05] it was 10 hrs suck....:D [19:05] Gaming4JC, if you;re looking for java, sudo apt-get install sun-java6-jre [19:06] but i figured out:D [19:06] I know this isn't an Ubuntu specific question, but I'm trying to import my bookmarks from Firefox in windows to ubuntu and don't know where they're stored? === mleftin is now known as ml781 [19:06] awesome. thanks. i've posted in this thread: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=801597&goto=newpost [19:06] MerlinW: i found the cure to my DAP ailing!

[19:06] joapinto: I will try again later. Thanks for your help. [19:06] anyways im enjoying the new release of ubuntu its so great i just wish i could do video editing on it [19:06] bbl [19:06] !video > Pirate_Hunter [19:06] MerlinW: I see the restricted driver in 'apt-cache search' can I install it that way?? and did you have to edit the Xconfig to add the radeon driver? [19:07] NeoGeo64, check out Kino [19:07] everybody here can play videos in your system (ubuntu 9.04) ? [19:07] luckydev: No I'm having the same problem and as I look at the net apparently a lot of people here are having that problem. [19:07] luckydev: works for me.. although vlc had some weird bug with the controls in a separate window [19:07] grifter188, Unfortunately I don know much about linux yet... :( [19:07] There are no decent video editing softwares for Linux, and the ones that do don't support many formats. [19:07] Slart, yeah, I was giving up in here :P [19:07] 9.04 has been working pretty good for me other than sound is soooo quiet, i have mixer and sound volume at 100%, yet its still like too quiet to be useful, has anyone encountered this and have any ideas? [19:07] Slart, what did u do to make it work [19:07] marco_Dr: ok ... it's a kind of hack to get it to work... you can't really do it though the gui or with the gui running actually. === JC_Denton__ is now known as JC_Denton_ [19:08] luckydev: nothing.. I just upgraded from 8.10.. running 64 bit 9.04 [19:08] marco_Dr: i'd walk you though it, but I'm not sure of it working [19:08] aixenv, change the PCM level. [19:08] Rantic, go to bookmarks, Organise Bookmarks, Backup to a JSON file [19:08] grifter188, if ur system clean from any fglrx drivers, and ur xorg.conf is empty (dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg) the system automatically start with the radeon driver (xserver-xorg-video-radeon) [19:08] grifter188, that's bad... :( I would try it out since I have nothing to lose. hahah [19:08] porter1 : where is this done @? [19:09] aixenv, the gnome mixer should have it listed, if it doesn't you can add it. [19:09] whats the command to search Repo? [19:09] MerlinW, How can I clean the fglrx driver from my system? [19:09] apt-search?

[19:51] my wife installed updates on her notebook running intrepid today and now her firefox's stored passwords are not working. is this a known problem? [19:51] raven: ask the devil linux people.. they ought to know.. this is #ubuntu [19:52] simeon: Just store the passwords again. [19:52] are you duel booting kane? [19:52] how do i find where is the subtiles .srt [19:52] Buttons840, yep [19:52] hi [19:52] Slart where can i find a devillinux chan - google does not help in a few minutes [19:52] windows go black when u maximize them maybe because they froze [19:52] mmm, i think i received that error once, i used ext2 and that fixed it [19:52] anyone know if there is a way to get nautilus to change directory/file permissions recursively? [19:53] does parallels tools work on ubutu 9.4 [19:53] raven: I have no idea.. you're the one trying to run it.. try looking at the place where you downloaded it from [19:53] coleys: some web pages that worked perfectly before are also not rendering completely (they do in konqueror) [19:53] can somebody please tell me if there is a fix for this... my windows are going black when i maximize them and I figure this is a video card problem however I would think an nvidia 6600 gt would be able to handle a maximized window... anyone? [19:53] RickX: Use cli [19:53] simeon: Restart your computer? [19:53] any help? [19:53] raven: look at the support page on devel linux's website [19:53] uberNoob, so that is a no? [19:53] PassePartouT:maybe because you need a faster processor and the windows keep freezing. [19:54] ah [19:54] hi anyone help a newbie? [19:54] coleys: yes, same issues [19:54] RickX: I'd have to run Nautilus as root to do that [19:54] comph4x0r, athlon 2200+ is a little slow for it i guess then eh [19:54] mattarmst What you need? [19:54] or maybe you just have an error with your graphics card [19:54] uber [19:54] mattarmstead: just ask your question [19:54] rats [19:54] best to check with your hardware vendor [19:54] lazermouse yes but i thought i'd need not writing a mail ... [19:54] RickX: what dir r u trying to change premissions on? [19:55] RickX: hopefully not root [19:55] hi, thanks new to linux and installed ubuntu 9.4 via parallels on mac book pro, installing parallels tools brings error [19:55] RickX: there is other file browsers out there [19:55] raven: lemme see... what's their website? [19:55] uberNoob, I did a sudo bash, then started nautilus, but it won't change recursively. [19:55] worked on 8.10 [19:55] I am trying to change permisions on a moodle folder in /www [19:55] comph4x0r, i read on google that it could be the screen effects which would make sense but i guess things just close instead of locking up the comp in ubuntu? since when i maximize my video player it just crashes or if i resize it to a certain size it crashes [19:55] mattarmstead: don't know about macs. Sorry. =/ [19:55] Hey guys, Im getting this errror failed to bind to address 127.0.0.1[4500] with kvpnc. Is there a command i can use to see what process is using 127.0.0.1 port 500? Thanks [19:55] RickX: Use terminal to change permissions. It's more easier than Nautilus, I suppose. [19:55] ok thanks [19:55] Gah, "sudo bash". And then on top running a gui app [19:55] RickX: To what? RWX? [19:56] chmod --help man chmod [19:56] ralmar, netstat [19:56] I want root to own/rw, www-data group to rw [19:56] chown --help man chown [19:56] yes then it is i currupted file with ubuntu [19:56] ... and php file to work ... [19:56] RickX: See what Eveready say about chmod (to change file permission) and chown (to change ownership). [19:56] PassPartouT,what type of installation for ubuntu did you go about using? [19:57] unop, dont think thats what im lookfing for. what parameters do i need to use? [19:57] i'm on 9.04 [19:57] i know of course but [19:57] but it's a dual boot [19:57] ralmar, netstat -ant [19:57] if that's more what oyu meant [19:57] did you install it from a USB,a disk or a direct download? [19:57] or simply update [19:57] cd [19:57] fresh install [19:58] so there's probably some tweaking to be done, i'm just getting used to using it right now and figuring out what i can do [19:58] ok,it can be a currupt file within the ubuntu disk [19:58] most likely [19:58] Not sure exactly what I did to make compiz-fusion angry but now I can't switch workspaces with my shortcut keys, and when I drag a window from one workspace to another, the screen flips as if I'm switching workspaces, but I'm actually on the same workspace [19:58] Any ideas on how to fix that? [19:58] how would that be explaining this? [19:59] well as you may know,ubuntu disk require display files [19:59] used for display [19:59] hello [19:59] some of these files may be missing codac fragments [19:59] i think it's that my gfx card doesn't like being under "extra" for "visual effects" [20:00] but i would think it wouldn't matter that much, the things that are being done aren't out of a 6600 gt's league [20:00] dont put it under extras theb [20:00] hi everybody [20:00] *then [20:00] so, apparently I can't change permission recursively using nautilus? [20:00] did someone have trouble to have network on kvm VM with libvirt on jaunty ?

[20:02] yes [20:02] i have a problem with internet when i connect it, after a while it stops showing webpages and i need to reboot the pc because the router stills with all leds on [20:02] comph4x0r: I use radeon and the fglrx driver didnt work, I had to get the driver from the amd/sti website [20:02] **amd [20:02] install compiz fusion and enable all the special effects you wish [20:03] how do i find the soundcore module?

[20:33] ya I'm in a completely different situation, im just trying to give general advice, which in this case doesnt work. thanks lockd [20:33] [_FireSoul_]: "shift"? [20:33] does anyone know of a way to get raw file thumbnail-previews in nautilus / gnome? [20:33] I really like the Personas addon for firefox. Is there something similar for gnome?

[20:36] and beruchtigte, skype worked by default for me, just install it.. [20:36] rubystallion, I'm sure GTK hackery could easily change that ;) [20:36] php can segfault, as can basically any language [20:36] I can't even get VESA working with my VIA S3 card with openchrome [20:36] tsimpson: under no normal cirtumstances could you make PHP segfault [20:36] but for me ,there's no sound [20:36] i think he means the engine not the scripts he's writing [20:36] tsimpson: how do i find out why [20:37] Has anyone found a solution to the firefox lag in Jaunty? [20:37] VIA S3? isn't that card already pretty ancient? does it even support VESA? [20:37] corinth describe the lag? everything seems snappy for me [20:37] sahos: it'd be an issue with some C function being called from PHP, either directly or by the PHP binary [20:37] while trying to install a broadcom wireless card i get a couldnt find package error when i use the command sudo apt-get install bcm4318-fwcutter in 9.04 [20:37] it did before I was forced to upgrade [20:37] Shortguy109: what version if Ubuntu? [20:37] corinth: what lag? [20:37] now nothing supports S3 via in the unbuntu world [20:37] corinth: sounds like a grfx driver issue you may have there [20:38] how do you determine if a computer has usb boot capability or not? i have a dell gx150 [20:38] porter1: Uhm, that's an area where I'm not very adept ;) [20:38] neskat: PHP has call C functions, so it can segfault. though it's less likely than from pure C [20:38] neskat: ummm 8.04 or somethinggg oh wait maybe 9.04 ah idk xD how do i check [20:38] running kubuntu 8.10 trying to update drivers, default doesnt work. using geforce 8300 card, i install the drivers, works when i exit recovery mode, then when i reboot, i get no signal [20:38] tsimpson: I know [20:38] jz: When moving through menus with the mouse, it lags. The highlight has to catch up with the mouse, ya know. I know I'm not alone in this problem, but I also know that it's not universal. neskat [20:38] I ran the Ubuntu 9.04 (x32) Disk in a Live session (no changes to the computer) on my wifes laptop on Sunday and Monday night to play with it, I went to load it last night and the video would not display, even with the compatibility mode enabled, and in Windows its now showing 4 gigs of the 20 the harddrive has is Unallocated space (only had 1 large partition before)...What can I do to fix it? [20:38] sahos: if you can reproduce the issue, report it to launchpad [20:38] !bug [20:38] 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 [20:39] Shortguy109: generally, sudo apt-get updatee && sudo apt-get ubuntu-restrcited-extras will get java (and other things) goinf for you [20:39] I'm now on the eee pc with the ubuntu from usb drive, and lookin at the devices it currently shows two partitions both with the basic linux file structure [20:39] tsimpson: how do i find out what exactly is causing the segfault, the apache guys suggested strace and gdb [20:39] okay [20:39] quaal: you can try to enter bios setup, boot sequence and see if there is usb hdd in the list of choices for boot [20:39] *update [20:39] first2di3: could be the windows recovery [20:39] !grub [20:39] GRUB is the default Ubuntu boot manager.

[20:40] neskat: neither of them worked [20:40] quaal: could be the case... - then read docs on the motherboard [20:40] sahos: have you googled this, probably already been discussed elsewhere, with fixes [20:40] sahos: that should tell you how to get a backtrace [20:41] Shortguy109: what happened?

Im pretty sure its the parition that Ubuntu used to store temporary files while the computer was in a Live session, however I cant get Ubuntu to boot with video now so I cant use it to resize the partition [20:41] Shortguy109: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras [20:42] tsimpson: i've tracked it down to where it returns from a preg_replace_callback fn() [20:42] sahos: I'd use debian if you don't want your server to break twice a year [20:42] is there any way to extract a subtitle not a dvd just telesynce movie [20:42] neskat: okay is doing it now [20:42] lockd: it's my desktop, i have gentoo on the server [20:42] lockd, please stop misinforming people [20:42] first2di3: ubuntu mounts your HDD in read only mode during a live session. all storage was temporarily in your RAM. no changes are made to the HDD unless you choose to install [20:42] first2di3: it should not... it should not even mount the disk...

[20:52] hi, I have an problem, my PC crash and I must restart it with the power botton, there are a solutions? (I have removed compiz fusion), but I think that the problem is my webcam, maybe it have a bugged drivers? now I have removed it. Thanks for the help :) [20:52] disturbedphaeton: was the driver in the .sh format? [20:53] simNIX: i was about to say, i thought we were running 9.04, vnot 9.03, lol [20:53] i downloaded it on .sh format [20:53] Picnick, you mean it keeps restarting sorry didnt get that? [20:53] after that, i generated the .db packages [20:53] disturbedphaeton: in that case you have an xorg issue, probably can be fixed from within xorg.conf [20:53] but that file is like blackmagic so I can't really help you with that [20:53] i need to copy a file into the /etc/init.d/ directory how can i do that in 9.04 [20:53] yes Pirate_Hunter [20:53] I'm giving up :( no matter what I try ubuntu fails to install.. it used to run. I was running 8.04 until now that I've tried to upgrade to 9.04 using clean install, but it kept freezing during install using both livecd and alternate.. now even installation of 8.04 freezes.. [20:54] kane77: checked md5 sum? [20:54] Pirate_Hunter, now I have removed the webcam.. I hope that the system not crash more [20:54] any ideas how to turn it off gartral1 ? [20:54] :o) [20:54] Mytos, sudo cp ... [20:55] Picnick, if it keeps restarting it wont help with what you just said there could be many reasons from overheating, to hardware, to even software settings can you explain how it started and i doubt its because of the webcam [20:55] Mytos: sudo cp /path/to/source/file /etc/init.d/point/to/destination [20:55] neskat, yes [20:55] kane77, i've come across it locking up for up to 20mins, but it resumes [20:55] here is how it looks [20:55] it tells me that i dont have permissions and its owned by root [20:55] kane77, if you had a sucessfull running system with 8.04, and now it's freezing with the same version, you are more likely to have an hw issue, did you run the memtesT ? [20:55] dingleberry: one moment [20:55] http://i161.photobucket.com/albums/t220/d07d4n137/HPIM1630.jpg [20:55] kane77, and it seemed to have been installing during that time as well, as it jumps the % after it starts back up [20:55] Mytos, with sudo it should ask you for your password and once oyu provide it, give you access to that folder [20:56] oyu -> you [20:56] kane77, go to bios choose to load fail safe mode > install ubuntu than in bios again activated things like sound card etc also make sure processor aint overheating like mine was :( [20:56] looking at the partition screen on the installation. It claims I have two different linux 9.04s and two different swap partitions. this is obviously not optimal. When doing the next install, Ill propably have to set the partitions manually. How should I set them up? [20:56] When i run nautilus i get "nautilus: error while loading shared libraries: libgnome-desktop-2.so.7: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory" [20:56] dingleberry: System>Preferences>Keyboard>Repeat Keys>Delay slider [20:56] Pirate_Hunter, now I check if the system crash again without webcam [20:56] joaopinto, tried leaving running the memtest for quite some time but it did not find any problem [20:56] thanks a lot :) [20:56] anyone else with laptops and wifi here happy entering the password each time the laptop connects to their access points?

After the loading screen I get nothing... even in compatability mode [20:57] kane77, your problem is mostly hardware at least i assume, it was for me that method helped specially after cleaning the fans and letting the system cool down [20:58] Pirate_Hunter, joaopinto, ZeZu the problem seems to be hdd drive, when I try to do something to hdd in livecd it sometimes freeze the system, but I have no idea how to detect if it is wrong.. anyone can give me some pointers?

[21:05] fangorious, there is no socks proxy support on apt, as far as I know, so you will need some http2socks proxy software [21:06] joaopinto: ok, thanks [21:06] DuckDodgers: some of the commands are the same [21:06] genii, ok bro [21:06] kancerman, if you run it with -v, yes [21:06] i mean,t kane77 [21:06] I've tried upgrading to Jaunty 9.04 AMD64..I got a lot of bugs and only a prtial upgrade..HOW can I reinstall the upgrade without losing my settins and applications [21:06] DuckDodgers: There are some programs like DosBox which will let you use the old Windows command-line stuff in it, if you are set on that :) [21:06] joaopinto i did what you said but still nothing? [21:06] genii, k [21:07] dexhu, reinstalling packages will not get anything different than you already have... [21:07] Chamillionaire2, did it reinstall and you get the same error ?

After the loading screen I get nothing... even in compatability mode... the user interface is loading because I can click in the upper right corner and click the mouse (cont...) [21:09] ...and scroll down 5 times to click the Shutdown button [21:09] Chamillionaire2, that's is very odd, my nautilus does not depend on libgnome-desktop-2.so.7 [21:09] <|v|aster> which channel is the ubuntu off topic again?

Seems to be a firewall problem. Help appreciated :) [21:10] |v|aster: #ubuntu-offtopic of course [21:10] can I use syslinux to boot any bootable iso file on a usb?

[21:14] How do I use this area for help? [21:14] poop [21:14] Canaen: go to the themes menu [21:14] and look in the tabs [21:14] jrsquared, just ask [21:14] jrsquared: You ask your question and then wait [21:14] also consider installing ccsm [21:14] and it seems to be between xrdp and vnc, because when I enter the username in xrdp the username is ok [21:15] What's the new way of disabling DMA for IDE drives? [21:15] joaopinto Back what did you want me to terminal again? [21:15] Apparently ide=nodma is completely ignored and my google skills are insufficient :( [21:15] :p [21:15] My wireless card isn't working so well for me. [21:15] neskat: What is ccsm? [21:15] Chamillionaire2, lsb_release -a [21:16] Distributor ID: Ubuntu Description: Ubuntu 9.04 Release: 9.04 Codename: jaunty [21:16] TopBunny88: google can answer pretty much an question you have about this issue [21:16] neskat: where's the themes menu? Sorry, I'm bad at this. [21:16] *any [21:16] the thing is that the xrdp website is not very well documented, so I'm looking for someonewhos tried this before :) [21:16] rtm [21:16] what kinda socket 775 motherboard should I get... intel or nvidia chipsets?? [21:17] Canaen: System: Preferences > Appearance [21:17] Canaen: system>preferences>appearence look around there [21:17] joaopinto Distributor ID: Ubuntu Description: Ubuntu 9.04 Release: 9.04 Codename: jaunty [21:17] grndslm: intel [21:17] Supposedly I got the driver for my wireless card installed, according to Windows Wireless Drivers. But I can't figure out how to set up a connection. [21:17] grndslm: I would reccommend the nvidia chipset [21:17] Fawzib: if your logging in ok, i can only imagine the culprit is the keyboard settings in gnome, does the keyboard on your terminal resemble the one infront of your workstation? [21:17] slappy: i thought some intel graphics have problems with xorg?? [21:17] TopBunny88: quick google search > CCSM, short for CompizConfig Settings Manager, is a configuration tool for Compiz Fusion [21:17] not hard [21:18] my wireless is SLOOOOOW after upgrading to 9.04... can anyone please help? [21:18] Hey guys. Installing 9.04 on a Dell optiplex with ADI 198x Integrated HD Audio. I can't get sound working. [21:18] thanks neskat [21:18] Chamillionaire2, I have no more ideas, your nautilus binary seems to be invalid, but since reinstalling didn't fix... [21:18] my sshd doesnt start until i log in with the login screen, login with text console reveals the sshd deamon running and im able to connect locally, but not remotly. Seems to be a firewall problem. Help appreciated :) [21:18] What do I do if Ubuntu 8.04 won't recognize that my wireless card does a wireless connection, and not a wired? [21:19] jr what's your wireless card? [21:19] neskat: hmm... I see the normal themes, and I see the visual effects tab with basic, normal, advanced or whatever, but not special 3D compiz thing. Compiz is supposed to have all sorts of nifty effects [21:19] It's from Netgear [21:19] WG311v3 [21:19] Canaen: In Terminal type: sudo aptitude install emerald [21:20] nuitzger, make sure port 22/tcp is open [21:20] does somebody here know the server and irc channel for evolution??? [21:20] I have an odd problem. None of the options on my volume applet actually change the volume (or even mute) I've tried all of them. However, I managed to start a pulseAudio applet which does change my volume perfectly. Is there a way that I can change my keyboard volume shortcuts so that they will change my volume through pulseAudio instead of the default volume applet? [21:20] Canaen: Then get .emerald themes, and do alt +F2 "compiz --replace" [21:20] Canaen: enable it in the menu i just showed you then install ccsm [21:20] fabman, it works when logged in in a gnome session, so network seems to be configured correctly, but not soon enough [21:20] is it possible to theme the new notification system ? [21:20] no [21:20] Is there a sane app that will scan multiple pages into one file instead of individual pages like xsane does? [21:21] coleys: why emerald???? [21:21] joaopinto sudo apt-get install libgnome-desktop-2-7? It somes up with an error anyway [21:21] he just wants ccsm [21:21] nuitzger, euh... I thought u said it wasn't possible to connect from the outside? [21:21] coleys: It's called WG311v3 [21:21] That's the effects theme manager. [21:21] Hello. [21:21] erm [21:21] wtf [21:21] sudo mount /dev/fd0 /media/floppy [21:21] doesn't work. :( [21:21] i need help with display settings (using X-Server, e.g. nvidia), when i restart my computer my monitors always switch (e.g. the left and right get reversed from what i set them to so my mouse cursor has to go out the far side to go to the other monitor); can somebody tell me why these settings aren't being saved? [21:21] Help? [21:21] did someone already import outlook PST into EVOLUTION?? [21:21] Tetracomm: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. [21:21] If you want effects you'll have to use compiz/emerald. [21:21] fabman, it isnt if im not logged in [21:21] neskat: emerald is part of compiz [21:21] Canaen: stick with ccsm [21:21] well my keyboard is a normal windows keyboard (en-us), in the keyboard model in keyboard preferences (btw i'm looking at the preferences through the remote destop connection) it says 'generic keyboard' [21:21] ccsm = emerald. =p [21:21] Chamillionaire2, the problem is that your nautlis binary is linked againsted a library version which is not available on jaunty [21:21] defrysk, no ? [21:21] anyone know how to control all the tab in gnome-term at once like iterm in mac or clusterssh? [21:21] simon__: You need to download tyhe nividia binary driver from nvidias website [21:22] coleys: ccsm is NOT emerald [21:22] nuitzger, the strange thing indeed is that when u login the port is open then? [21:22] joaopinto Is there one available for jaunty? === josh__ is now known as meinzorn [21:22] Hey guys. Installing 9.04 on a Dell optiplex with ADI 198x Integrated HD Audio. I can't get sound working. Any ideas? [21:22] any mac users with parallels? [21:22] Settings for the effects I mean :[ [21:22] TopBunny88, well i downloaded NVIDIA-Linux-x86-180.51-pkg1.run and tried "sh ____/Nvidia/etc" in terminal and it said it couldn't open it [21:22] darthanubis, lspci could help [21:23] fabman, seems to be like that. when i log in with a text console, the port seems to remain closed, sshd is running and local ssh is possible [21:23] darthpunk, sorry [21:23] i need help importing PST into evolution [21:23] I just upgraded to jaunty. After disabling emerald. all the windows have the buttons on the left, rather than the right. Is there a way to switch back to having them on the right? [21:23] anyone?? === croppa_ is now known as croppa [21:23] hi all [21:23] Chmod a+x the file [21:23] TopBunny88, also when i go to the hardware drivers it says it is rendering/using version 180 (doesn't say exactly which one but it says 180) which is the newest x-server or whatever it's called [21:23] Chamillionaire2, ues, and you have it installed [21:23] can somebody help me with ubuntu server??? [21:24] lakotajames: Are you using a theme that has its close, min, max on the right? [21:24] TopBunny88, not sure if that means i should still install it or not install it, but either way i can't figure out how to install that first one that i downloaded [21:24] I have an odd problem. None of the options on my volume applet actually change the volume (or even mute) I've tried all of them. However, I managed to start a pulseAudio applet which does change my volume perfectly. Is there a way that I can change my keyboard volume shortcuts so that they will change my volume through pulseAudio instead of the default volume applet? [21:24] !anyone | kingdra_ [21:24] kingdra_: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..." Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out? [21:24] coleys: I can't seem to find emerald themes [21:24] coleys: All the themes have them on the left now, but the thumbnails show they are on the right. [21:24] i cannot mount floppy disks... i can scan, but they wont mount [21:25] I need help with EVOLUTION, importing PST from Outlook, [21:25] nuitzger, strange... my 8.10 ssh service works fine, wether I'm logged in or not, all I need is my computer on and my router forwarding the traffic on port 22/tcp to my computer [21:25] Canaen: http://gnome-look.org [21:25] Canaen: Found under Compiz [21:25] ok, I recently downladed the libsball for unix for gaming and i am having a problem with tar -zvxf libsball-1.0.tar.gz is not unpacking the file is there anything i can do or anyone know where i can go for simpler graphics update whatever i got to do to run my game on here i know it's not that demanding of a game [21:25] Canaen: kist get ccsm [21:25] thebloggu: lspci seems to be recognizing the device... not too familiar with LSPCI... is there something else I should do? [21:25] **just [21:25] I already told you that [21:25] it's easy [21:25] I have a wireless internet card from Netgear called WG311v3. I used "Windows Wireless Drivers" to install the Windows 2000 driver for it. I then put the card into the computer (after shutting it down and unplugging and everything) and after turning it back on Windows Wireless Drivers says that the card is present. Now how do I connect to my router? [21:25] neskat: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. [21:25] fabman, yeah, i thougt its strange too. im running 9.04. i didnt find anything with google === Purple__ is now known as PurpleWater [21:26] nuitzger, I'm new to 9.04 too, and the only annoyance I've found so far (same as 8.04 and 8.1 to be fair) is that I have to enter my password each time I turn my computer on to have WiFi connected [21:27] fabman: turn off the keyring [21:27] fabman: tried wicd? [21:27] oz|, how? [21:27] fabman, thx for help. [21:27] Canaen: Find an .emerald theme? [21:27] I noticed that plenty of people are talking in here all at once, and that messages are pushed up very quickly. How does the idea of creating some separate channels which are more specific to certain common issues sound? I created some channels for that for you. I think it would help. [21:27] nuitzger, yw, sorry for not helping a lot though [21:27] wicd lets me connect automatically to wireless without a wallet password [21:27] coleys: yup! thank you! I'm looking through them now [21:27] has anybody else an idea? port 22 seems to be closed until logged in a gnome session... [21:27] fabman: go to system preferences and open the encryption and keyrings [21:27] wicd is a nice app [21:28] darthpunk, you can get probably help on the alsa channel ;) [21:28] after upgrading to jaunty, USB devices no longer get automounted for me [21:28] Canaen: To install them, System > Preferences > Emerald Settings Manager... then import the .emerald theme. [21:28] fabman: select the option that lets you connect automatically [21:28] to all: I'm looking for help with my SLOW wireless... and have asked here 5 times in the last 2 days. No bites... where else can I go? Can't someone please help me? [21:28] thebloggu: Thanks! [21:28] Tatracomm: How do I go to a specific channel [21:28] is it nautilus that's supposed to do that? [21:28] oz|, I'm on the app and don't see such an option [21:29] brodymcd: Which wireless card? [21:29] Sorry, I mean Tetracomm [21:29] if yo can help me with the EVOLUTION iissue, can you join the room #evolution [21:29] ?? [21:29] pls [21:29] Netgear WG311v3 [21:29] go to [21:29] oz|, ah, but now I do see my GPG keys listed, I'll try selecting the one that works [21:29] jrsquared: One sec ! [21:29] fabman: pgp passphrases and then select always remember me when logged in [21:29] darthpunk you're welcome, if i can help with something more just ask ;) [21:29] Hey i just installed epiphany web browser using the respositorys, how do i get it to run?\ [21:30] fabman: are you good now? [21:30] coleys-broadcom [21:30] coleys - in the dell inspiron 1526 [21:30] Does anyone know why a Live CD Would work for several restarts over 2 days, and the 3rd day it boots for a while, I hear the startup sound(the sound when the computer boots), but the screen remains blank? After the loading screen I get nothing... even in compatability mode... the user interface is loading because I can click in the upper right corner and click the mouse (cont...) [21:30] ...and scroll down 5 times to click the Shutdown button [21:30] oz|, I couldn't find the "option that lets you connect automatically" in the app [21:30] coleys-it connects, but is SLOW to connect and SLOW on loading pages [21:30] Tetracomm: It might be an idea, however, the problem is that we don't want channels that are to specific, and hence quiet... as it is now al lot of eyes are in here, which is a good thing, possibly there could be ubuntu-beginners and -advanced... but I don't think there should be any more specific splits then that... [21:30] fabman did you click the pgp passphrases tab [21:30] just a quick question about xchat - is there a way to disable join/quit notifications in the main chat window? I'm an old mIRC client user - new to xchat. [21:31] oz|, yes [21:31] jrsquared: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=179801&highlight=wg311v3 [21:31] jrsquared: Follow the how-to...

[21:33] I have another problem: If i open anx-window application in a screen session, how do i persuade it not to forward the x-window but to run it locally so i can detatch the screen session and close ssh? [21:33] coleys: how do I find the exact card? [21:33] Coleys: No, I couldn't figure out how to use it, so I used Windows Wireless Drivers [21:33] PassePartouT: why aren't you using System -> Administration -> Hardware Drivers? [21:33] PassePartouT: right click and make it executable [21:33] yes [21:33] jri doesnt work with jaunty [21:33] jrsquared: Try to follow that guide, its pretty straight forward the one by macdo/. [21:33] jrib loads of people find that it fails with juanty [21:33] coleys: ok [21:34] neskat: weird, worked fine for me beta time, but I haven't played with it at all since release [21:34] jrsquared: if you need help along the way, message. :) [21:34] neskat: do you know the bug number? [21:34] coleys: Is there a GUI way to do this? [21:34] Hello [21:34] hi guys just configured my dhcp3 server - how do i get it to start up on boot? [21:34] how long will the ubuntu 8.10 support last? [21:34] !intrepid [21:34] Ubuntu 8.10 (Intrepid Ibex) was the ninth release of Ubuntu. Downloading: http://releases.ubuntu.com/8.10/ - Release Notes: http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/releasenotes/810 [21:34] sharma: 18 months after release [21:34] jrib, i did use that but somebody said i should update, i think the version of the drivers there is the latest though which makes me wonder, just trying to get better performance [21:34] jrib example: my ati drivers; when i installed my drivers using the hardware drivers manager it killed X. So i went and got the official binary, installed and it worked, jaunty has screwed up alot fo grfx stuff [21:35] neskat, how do i do that? [21:35] *of [21:35] No, I mean tehre is 9.04 [21:35] PassePartouT: right click the icon [21:35] but my computer runs slow with 9.04 [21:35] brody: lspci (In terminal) [21:35] so i want to run 8.10 [21:35] PassePartouT: then look for a check box near the bottom [21:35] following problem: port 22 seems to be closed until logged in a gnome session... [21:35] sharma: ok, so what is your question? [21:35] how long can i run 8.10 [21:35] how long can i use 8.10 with reciveing updates [21:35] sharma: 18 months after release [21:35] PassePartouT: Go to System > Administration > Hardware Drivers. [21:35] sharma: you on intel graphics? [21:35] neskat, there's no checkbox [21:35] No [21:35] ATI [21:35] PassePartouT: Install the recommended driver. [21:36] wow, bravo whoever did 9.04. Looks *awesome* [21:36] the first reboot was wow [21:36] But why is ubuntu 8.04 support lasted till 2011? [21:36] !lts | sharma [21:36] sharma: LTS means Long Term Support. LTS versions of Ubuntu will be supported for 3 years on the desktop, and 5 years on the server. [21:36] sharma: since its lts [21:36] coleys, i have "nvidia accelerated graphics driver (version 180)" selected already, i guess i figured it would fair better [21:36] so i can use ubuntu 8.10 for a while untill they fix 9.04? [21:36] and i wanted to make sure i had the latest and greatest obviously [21:36] PassePartouT: screenshot? [21:36] PassePartouT: Yeah, that's the one i use aswell. [21:36] would you SUGGEST blocking ads.doubleclick ? [21:37] PassePartouT: Is it activated? [21:37] sharma: you can use it for a long time yet.. [21:37] of if one did that would pages not load correctly? [21:37] Ok thank you [21:37] also [21:37] #include int main(){ printf(“Goodbye, cruel world!\n”); return(0);} [21:37] how come when i boot cmy computer [21:37] it says [21:37] sharma: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. [21:37] coleys, says "this driver is activated and currently in use" [21:37] i am not flooding [21:37] coleys: It mentions turning of the wired card, could that be causing problems? [21:37] i know it is because when i do the display settings i have to use the x-server stuff [21:38] sharma: stop using enter to break up your sentences [21:38] PassePartouT: To activate effects, go... System > Preferences > Appearance > Visual Effects > Extra [21:38] I have another problem: If i open anx-window application in a screen session, how do i persuade it not to forward the x-window but to run it locally so i can detatch the screen session and close ssh? [21:38] I am american this is how i type [21:38] i am sorry [21:38] sharma: this channel is too busy. Use punctuation, not the enter key [21:38] PassePartouT: post it online, i cant accept files over irc [21:38] coleys, yeah the reason i'm doing this is because the effects were causing my screen to go black when i maximized certain windows [21:39] neskat, k [21:39] PassePartouT: Can you be more specific? [21:39] coleys: If I turn off my wired card, I'll lose connection to here. Is that a necessary step? [21:39] jrib, punctiotion is not only a solution compell to use grammar as well [21:39] sharma: You posted several things in a row, keep it on one line and use punctuation. Just because you are amrecian doesn't mean you don't know how to use commas and full stops :) [21:39] jrsquared: Yeah, do whatever it says. [21:39] sharma: I don't care, just stop pressing enter so much [21:39] :) [21:39] jrsquared: My previous computer's wireless card required ndiswrapper, I had to follow each step correctly. [21:40] 2 [21:40] 2 [21:40] 2 [21:40] sharma: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.

Once it says "Noting found", it won't go back to the first listing, even if I delete the search query. Any ideas? [21:40] wtf [21:40] coleys, umm, well like sometimes when i maximize FF the screen goes black, it's happened to me on X-Chat, when i resize or maximize video files to a certain size they close instantly, that's pretty much what i've noticed, it goes away (not sure for how long) when i turn down effects but i'd think a 6600 GT would be able to handle what's going on, i guess not [21:41] PassePartouT: Is your resolution to high? or something. [21:41] sharma: at this rate you'll get kicked/banned before long [21:41] PassePartouT: link to screenshot? [21:41] Sure [21:41] for some reason there are no icons on the desktop.however I can still find all of them in the Desktop folder [21:41] vlad, kde or gnome? [21:41] is there some kind of funnyness with jaunty's sudoers file? i cant NOPASSWD: a group =[ [21:41] Slart i came here for questions, i get 50 million answers saying to use everything in one setences [21:41] coleys: I have two wired cards, do I just put the command in once for each to disable both? [21:41] vlad: Is it possible that you turned on a feature to hide all icons from the Desktop? As to keep it clutter-free? [21:41] sheena1: That is unfortunately a know bug.

[21:42] ienorand: thats okay. as long as i know. any known fixes, or a site i could watch if they do fix it?.. or just keep my upgrades up to date and home? [21:42] sharma: just try to ask the entire question in one line.. the bots are a bit paranoid when it comes to flooding (as you've noticed) [21:42] sheena1: restarting gnome-app-install between searches works... [21:42] sharma: if you have a question then please ask [21:42] sharma: you were told once. And told again when you didn't listen the first time. These are the rules for the channel, so that everyone can get help with some semblance of order [21:42] Better to install with ext3? or ext4? [21:42] sheena1: but that's nor really a fix [21:42] neskat, yeah i'm working on it sorry, i'll have it shortly just getting a place to dump it [21:42] HSNews: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ext4 --> New Filesystem Format.

[21:43] HSNews: for the server, ext3.. for your experimenting desktop machine that you backup properly, give ext4 a try.. tell us how it was =) [21:43] sheena1: There is a debdiff patch on the bug report: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/karmic/+source/gnome-app-install/+bug/354563 [21:43] sharma: ok, why is that a problem? [21:43] ienorand: and do i need to report it or anything? or they already know, so i can just carry on my way? :) [21:43] Because everytime i boot [21:43] i recive that message [21:43] HSNews, I have been using ext4 without problems [21:43] sharma: there's a bug report on bugs.ubuntu.com about it [21:43] insted of the ubuntu message [21:43] sharma: Change your resolution?

I've followed the install instructions "sudo python setup.py install" and it appears to stuff some files in usr/local etc but then it won't work. Anyone assist? [21:45] ienorand: thanks for the help. I'll read over that link. As long as i know it's known, i won't worry :) [21:46] it does not respond properly too-I can't open the menu with a right click [21:46] neskat, "allow executing file as program" [21:46] i'm geuss that's it [21:46] PassePartouT: Have you googled your specific issue? There could be a fix/ [21:46] If anyone sent me any messages after I was kicked off, resend them. [21:46] coleys, well the black screen i think is because of the effects (e.g. running out of video ram) [21:46] but... [21:46] following problem: port 22 seems to be closed until logged in a gnome session... [21:46] coleys, i am also having the problem that when i change some settings in x-server, they aren't being saved [21:47] Hi.

[21:47] sheena1: it's reported in the bug report, and I think it's more or less confirmed that everyone sees this bug. Another way to patch it is to enable jaunty-proposed updates (you could enable that and only install the update for gnome-app-install and then disable the disable it, so you won't get all the other "half-tested" updates) [21:47] coleys, e.g. when i change my monitors so that when i move the mouse it goes between screens.... after i restart it goes back to default and the mouse has to go out the far side to get to the other monitor [21:47] * ienorand : DANG.

[21:49] I really need help. I have an odd problem with my sound card, when I change the volume it only works when no headphones are plugged in (even with mute). So my speakers change volume, but if I plug in headphones I can't change it using ANY option on the default volume applet.

[21:50] ah [21:50] I did already. [21:50] coleys: What if I don't know for sure which one it's plugged into? [21:50] thevdi: it will give some new people time to wake up etc.. any shorter and people will just get annoyed.. [21:50] mobi-sheep, well it's showing what's already set up, i guess i'll try making a change or something then restarting and see what happens? [21:50] Or should I just unplug it? [21:50] is there a way to keep a hostname change in the usb version? [21:51] PassePartouT: Actually. Save it, that wasn't what you were trying to do? [21:51] mobi-sheep, i was trying to do this, it's just on restart it's not keeping what i do from x-server [21:51] jrsquared: What step are you on? [21:51] I doubt anyone is going to scroll up through 15 mins of previous posts [21:51] Slart: i just installed php5 and its not working under Ubuntu 8.10. i had previously installed apache2 and it is working fine. I tried to reload the server like thousands of times literally and wont work, any idea?

[22:02] coleys: Somewhere said that Windows Wireless Drivers was ndisgtk, and it looks just like the picture I sw of ndisgtk.

[22:08] sharma: in that case you need to stop trying to enter the higher res until you get a driver that can support it [22:08] Ali-smith: ubottu is a 'bot' not a person. :) [22:09] scribawf: have you installed the flashplugin package? [22:09] scribawf: sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree [22:09] Ali-smith: theres 100's of good training/tutorial sites out on learning the bash shell also.

I know gnome-app-install 0.5.24-0ubuntu1.1 was published 9h ago, is that still within the time frame for repo publishing-->downloadabilty? [22:11] coleys: Ok, thankyou. What will that do? [22:11] coleys, :) haha yeah it sure is nice [22:12] hello, if i download an ubuntu iso, and then burn and reboot, can i install an app into ram, then make an bootable iso of that? [22:12] coleys: isn't there something that's part of the base system? I suspect I must have turned it off with some GUI, so it would seem surprising if there were no GUI to turn it back on again [22:12] jjlee: No. [22:12] Slart, unfortunately neither show nor showpkg gives the information about files. what's that apt-file? i don't have that thingy here [22:12] hi all. I'm trying to use compiz magnification tool that's assigned by default to super+button 4 and super+button 5. My super key is broken, so I changed it to ctrl+alt but I don't know where is button4 and button5. [22:12] coleys: what's the GUI to turn it off, then? [22:12] jjlee: There is no gui included for automounting, nfts-config will automount for you. [22:12] Hi. I just "added" the alarm-clock package but it has a bug in it so I fetched the latest fixed version from Gnomefiles which I need to install. I've followed the install instructions "sudo python setup.py install" and it appears to stuff some files in usr/local etc (no obvious build errors) but then it won't work (http://pastebin.com/m499ba8bb) Anyone assist? [22:12] or if it's easier I'ld like to change button4 and 5 to some standard keys === danorsk is now known as danorsk[afk] [22:12] prodigel, i'm going out on the limb but i have a feeling those are mouse buttons [22:13] janisozaur: it's another utility.. you'll have to install it.. it can search for files to see which package they are from and so on "sudo apt-get install apt-file" to get it, I think [22:13] No gui to turn it off, edit fstab. :P [22:13] PassePartouT, can I exchange them for keys? [22:13] nesket [22:13] i have the driver installed [22:13] I'm having a problem with gparted and a Creative MP3 player. May someone please help me? Here's the output when trying to format it to FAT32: http://pastebin.com/d34b84e1f [22:14] prodigel, not sure i haven't used the program i was just guessing with hopes to find your missing buttons, i'd assume you could change them somewhere... wherever you changed the other shortcut [22:14] PassePartouT, well I don't have a box to type in, just a sleect to choose from. and all are buttons [22:15] I'm having problems syncing my iPod with Amarok since upgrading to Jaunty. It's mounting correctly, and I'm able to browse and play songs from it, but unable to transfer anything new to it. New interface doesn't really seem to have anything about transferring the queue. Any advice? [22:15] coleys: hmm, do you mean ntfs-config? that's not what I want: the USB device in question does not have an NTFS filesystem on it [22:15] janisozaur: with that installed you can do "apt-file list " to get all the files that come in a package [22:15] janisozaur: remember to run "apt-file update" first [22:15] jjlee: Oh, I was assuming that it did. In any case, you will need to add a line to fstab... toget it to mount when you start up your system. [22:15] Slart, great, thanks. update is just updating :) [22:15] janisozaur: =) [22:16] how come when i boot my coputer insted of the ubuntu loading screen i get a error saying "cannot not display this video mode, optimum resolution 1280 x 1024" someone please help me [22:16] cheers for the help!

[22:19] Is there some trick to get the nvidia driver working with Jaunty? [22:19] MTecknology, nethogs shows the bandwidth usage per app real-time.. no history support though (afaik) [22:19] Slart; what's your thoughts on Synaptic Package installer for FlashPlayer?

[22:20] snek: sereven: eseven73: thanks. I'll try those out [22:20] coleys, yeah I know, but it hangs [22:20] sharma: what resolution do you want to use? [22:20] neskat - you've obviously not helped them so let someone else have a try [22:20] Slart: Guess can uninstall and then try reinstall from Term window [22:20] has anyone worked with logitech mice and getting the "back" (side button) to act like a back button? [22:20] dsch04: No it doesn't just be patient. [22:20] scribawf: you could probably check in firefox what flashplugin it uses.. something like "about:plugins" or similar === kuba is now known as Guest79920 [22:20] dsch04: It will work after some time, sometimes its delayed. [22:20] Hi. I just upgraded to Jaunty, and my sound card is no longer being detected. (ATI SBx00 Azalia, and ATI RS780 Azalia). [22:20] Tools - Plug-ins [22:20] OK - will try again. How long is it likely to take? [22:20] there are three options for flash that ubuntu offers [22:20] thevdi he usualy ignores what you say then says something random, i already told him waht to do , and he pretty much refuses then says random things like, "i wanna fix this" "i have ati" [22:20] troll? [22:20] Slart; OK thanks think I'm on right track, or maybe, hmm reinstall Firefox? [22:20] neskat you are explaining me steps that even a 5 year old can do understand that i am a new person to ubuntu [22:21] dsch04: depends, just let it sit.. its not a big file to download... just takes a while to connect or something. [22:21] sorry, Tools / Add-ons, Plugins [22:21] I have purchased this cd [22:21] i'm using Shockwave Flash 10.0 r22 [22:21] Ah, I see, it's downloading. [22:21] OK, will sit it out.

[22:22] dsch04: what issues are you having?

Just lost connection. [22:23] sharma, don't worry about the splash screen. You've booted, logged into the desktop and you can't now select the screen res you desire...is that correct ? [22:24] no its just the boot screen [22:24] Last time I did this, it didn't take long at all [22:24] sdcard: I have a laptop with an SD Card slot, and I found that my motherboard did not support booting from it. [22:24] i want to fix the boot screen problem because it later on becomes a issue [22:25] sharma. You just said you were using the Ubuntu desktop, yes ? [22:25] hi, how can i mount an iso to a drive? i can't remember the switch, something to do with "loopback" [22:25] pepperjack: Same result. [22:25] folks [22:25] Yes [22:25] how do i disable notifiacations from pidgin? [22:25] i am useing Ubuntu 9.04 desktop edition [22:25] EdgEy: mount -o loop [22:25] i don't care to get a bunch of notifications [22:25] cheers rep [22:25] sharma, is that running it from the live CD or an actual installation to your hard disk? [22:25] I said my splash screen loads with the error "cannot display this video mode, optimum resolution 1280 x 1024 60 Hz" [22:25] sdcard: perhaps this would be of interest: http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-1037566.html [22:25] actual installtion [22:26] Hmmm: [22:26] i'd like a little help in implementing a new partitioning strategy while i do the upgrade to jaunty; this is my current partitioning scheme: http://www.pictureshoster.com/viewer.php?file=6il2uhjkg7zdq02s1rmx.png ; i want to kill the windows partition and have two equal /boot partitions, /boot and /boot2, with identical contents, and have grub let me choose between them [22:26] Jockey backend crashed [22:26] sharma, ok. Have you tried going to system->administration->hardware drivers ? [22:26] Yes [22:26] i installed the drivers needed [22:26] its activated [22:26] Xiong: make sure you use a seperate home [22:26] Xiong: why do you want two boot partitions? [22:27] MTecknology, belt and suspenders [22:27] Xiong: ? [22:27] sharma, I run an Nvidia card myself and have to install nvidia-settings as a seperate item in order to get my display at the right res/refresh. Have you tried searching for something similar for ATI users? [22:27] hello, are you supposed to disconnect your regular connection when connected to vpn? [22:27] so, the next time i blow up my system doing an upgrade, i have sth to fall back on [22:27] if you are doing a new install, and doing the partition manually ... what should the mount point be? /? [22:27] Xiong: just do a / and a /home then if it blows up you just reload / [22:27] um no [22:27] nicklas_: no [22:28] i don't understand 'just reload /' [22:28] Xiong: that way all your settings and files stay. [22:28] nicklas_: you might want to change your default route through the vpn if you want all traffic going through it though [22:28] pepperjack: why? please explain :-) [22:28] repnop: how? [22:28] Xiong: you can reinstall on / and have it mount your /home then you lose nothing if you reload switch distros etc... [22:28] sharma, even with the nvidia driver installed, I can't set up my desktop either with the standard ubuntu desktop res setting thingy. I'd try googling for an ATI setup tool [22:28] !home > Xiong [22:28] Xiong, please see my private message [22:28] * repnop has only used openvpn [22:28] thevdi: do you have ati or nvidia? [22:29] histo, nvidia === kansan__ is now known as arooni [22:29] thevdi: he uses the same ati card as me and I had the same problem as him, then I fixed it [22:29] :( === maxx_ is now known as AnActivist [22:29] repnop: i think thats automatic [22:29] Hi. I just installed Jaunty, and my sound cards are no longer being detected. They are ATI SBx00 Azalia and ATI RS780 Azalia. [22:29] neskat - how did you fix it ? [22:29] i understand that i can/should have a separate /home partition and part of my question is, how do i do this? [22:29] Xiong: do you want to move your old /home or start fresh [22:30] thevdi: I'm pretty sure you were telling me to shut up a few mins ago..... he can either install the __correct__ driver from the amd site or he can stop trying to enter a res higher than what the cirrent driver supports [22:30] *current [22:31] neskat, I told you that you clearly hadn't helped since they were still asking. Why do you think they have the wrong driver installed ? [22:31] histo: let me say exactly: you see here, at http://www.pictureshoster.com/viewer.php?file=6il2uhjkg7zdq02s1rmx.png this is my current partitioning; i would like to do it all over to have /boot1, /boot2, /home, and whatever swap and anything else might be useful/needed; and being a complete noob, i will need fairly detailed, simple instructions [22:32] thevdi: he wouldnt get a res out of bounds error if he has he driver that supports that res installed [22:32] Xiong: like others have said having seperate /boots is a little excessive. [22:32] Xiong: unless you are booting different kernels. [22:32] thevdi: i tried to get him to cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf bue he wouldnt [22:32] so I think compiz is a waste of time for me. Can I just uninstall it all, or does the standard gui/metacity rely on it? [22:32] Canaen: why is it not working? [22:33] did you get ccsm? [22:33] Xiong: during the install process you can do manual partitions. Create a / or boot or whatever you want first. When creating it it asks what to use it as such as / or /home or /swap [22:33] neskat, is this relevant for them? http://wiki.cchtml.com/index.php/Ubuntu_Jaunty_Installation_Guide [22:33] neskat: no, it's fine. I just don't really have any desire for 3d effects and such. [22:33] histo, i have used dual boot very successfully for many years under mac os 9; i realize that this may seem silly but it has kept me out of trouble on so many occasions; it seems like a wise precaution until i learn more about linux [22:33] neskat: mostly I just wanted to play around with it [22:33] i created a xubuntu 9.04 flash drive to install on an eee and i can't get past the cdrom install part. [22:33] noodlesgc, thanks for the link [22:33] Xiong: I would create about a 10gig / use a majority of the drive for /home then make a swap file. [22:33] histo, i'd prefer not to erase my /xiong during repartitioning, if possible [22:34] thevdi: thats's riddeled with incorrect statments, I coulnt get it to work [22:34] i just grabbed the driver from the vendors site [22:34] then did ./install.sh [22:34] neskat - a wiki with incorrect information? I don't believe it ;-) [22:34] lol === kuba is now known as Guest14398 [22:34] Xiong: yeah you can do that. You can create all the partitions with gparted from the install cd first ahead of time. Then go through the installer and just tell it what to use each parititon as. [22:34] histo, i believe the tool i used to create that screenshot will allow me to repartion without complete destruction [22:34] Canaen: it's easy to get running on your hardware, you were just given bad advice [22:35] neskat: how do you mean? [22:35] hello I have now really worried and wonder what has ubuntu 9.04 done to my laptop [22:35] Xiong: correct just backup and becare full what you are doing. Read everything [22:35] hey guys when will 2.6.29 be in the repos? [22:35] my battery status is being reported incorrectly and that is very drastic [22:35] Canaen: do you have compiz installed? [22:35] dre_ham: I don't think they backport kernels. but there is a backport repo. [22:35] neskat: yea. and emerald. [22:35] before jonty it was properly showing 3 hours [22:35] histo, okay, the specific issue is that i can't 'be careful' because i have little idea what i'm doing [22:35] Canaen: enable it, install ccsm, then have fun AND GET RID OF THAT EMERALD CRAp [22:35] like I said ages ago [22:36] mmk [22:36] but you ignored me [22:36] but now it has come down to 2 hours 25 minits and still droppping day by day. [22:36] and listened to some emerld fanboy [22:36] Xiong: What is it you are concerned about saving which one of those partitions [22:36] hmmm ok whats the current one in the repos? [22:36] I thought something is wrong with my newly purchased battery and got it replaced but now also the machine shows same result with the new one [22:36] neskat: lol. sorry! I'll try it one more time [22:36] histo, let me put it another way: how can i be sure that i'm not blowing up my /xiong folder, which i suppose is the only thing i need to preserve [22:36] Xiong: okay where is the /xiong folder in windows? [22:37] has any one faced this problem? and yes i put this battery on another laptop and it works fine. [22:37] histo: not in windows at all; the old install is ubuntu [22:38] Xiong: If its in ubuntu the its on /dev/sda6 [22:38] Xiong: if you are trying to say your old /home/xiong folder I'm assuming [22:38] histo, yes [22:38] it is filesystem/home/xiong [22:38] Xiong: And you want to reinstall? [22:39] i have a messed up partitioning scheme (IMO) and ubuntu 8.10 now [22:39] I dunno about dual-booting. What made me finally take the plunge to Linux & Ubuntu especially is that windows was basically broken on my computer, taking literally ten minutes to boot, and freezing up all the time, not being able to access enough memory to run simple programs, etc. Now I have an Ubuntu system with a single partition, and after I learned a bit about it and reinstalled once, it's perfectly stable, a million times [22:39] Canaen: How's emerald :) [22:39] histo, i have a backup of my /xiong folder with one exception, and that's the issue [22:40] I hate vista.... [22:40] hi [22:40] Canaen: that's what made me ditch Windows, too ;-) [22:40] in order to fit the backup onto a single CD, i had to throw out a .virtualbox folder [22:40] coleys: emerald was silly and didn't really work right [22:40] Canaen: my windows install was utterly horked, and then I needed the disk space [22:40] Canaen: [22:40] Aw. If you need help with it, just ask. =) [22:40] Xiong: well you could resize /dev/sda6 to give you more freespace on the drive. Then create the new filesystem and move the files over [22:40] and yeah windows is a huge fail now... [22:41] And linux is free. =p [22:41] histo, i would like to retain virtualbox in the unlikely case that i actually need to work in windows someday [22:41] Canaen: ccsm is a simple compiz effects manager that will let you config every aspect of compiz, and unlike emerald, it's not a piece of crap [22:41] compiz ftw === saulus_ is now known as SauLus [22:41] compizzz =) [22:41] neskat: I just installed it, I'm gonna try it now [22:41] thank you === sale_ is now known as sale [22:42] neskat's a fanboy =p [22:42] Xiong: yeah. You can move the data. Basiclaly you need to boot to a livecd to edit the paritions you have so they aren't mounted. [22:42] does any one face a problem with battery status incorrectly being reported on ubuntu 9.04 [22:43] histo, IIUYC, then you suggest i shrink /sda6 to a minimum needed to hold what's there; then create my new partitioning scheme holding that out; then copy from /sda6 to my new /home/xiong; then i'm left with a small scrap partition [22:43] kk_jonti: only with my old battery [22:43] kk_jonti: only with my Eee PC [22:43] Xiong: then you can delete the old partition and expand the new one. [22:43] i have one built in soundcard (nvidia ck804 = card 1) that i would like to use, but my graphics card also has a audio card (ati hda hdmi = card 0) which is chosen by ubuntu, if i try to change the audio device in sound preferences i can see my ck804 but doing a "test" gives me "audiotestsrc wave=sine freq=512! Could not open audio device for playback.". [22:43] histo, gotcha [22:43] Xiong: either way make sure you backup your data. Reinstalling a virtual machine is not big deal. [22:43] hi - i just upgraded from 8.10 intrepid to 9.04 and now my system doesnt boot anymore ;( [22:44] i'm using a raid system and nvidia card with nvidia drivers [22:44] drashy: I have a new battery and it was showing proper 3 hour backup untill i removed hardy and put jonty [22:44] histo, thanks for your help; since i'm going to be booting from CD now, it's bye-bye for now [22:44] noob question on my part but would using a ubuntu live cd for file backup from one hdd to another prevent a win based virus from spreading to the uninfected drive as long as i transfer clean files? [22:44] i thought my be my battery is bad but it is perfect with put on other laptop [22:44] server irc-hispano.org [22:44] drashy: i got a new battery and that 2 shows 2 hours backup just like the old one. [22:45] i changed the grub entry from root (0,0) to root (0,5) and it actually started booting, but after some seconsd the following happens: "Gave up waitning for root device. .... ALERT! /dev/mapper/nv idia_babfbfdf6 does not exist. Dropping to a shell!" [22:45] what can i do? [22:45] drashy: as if the status system has a non-refreshable menory [22:45] LethalArmy: unless teh virus has infected the files you are moving.. it should be safe.. There are AV apps for linux that can scan the windows drives also for windows viruses [22:45] i thinkg babfbfdf6 is my raid driver ?! [22:45] kk_jonti: did you completely drain it and fully recharge it? [22:45] neskat, still here ? [22:45] pw-toxic that is your raid partition and its probably correct [22:45] I can't seem to get ubuntu 9.04 to boot off usb as I did with the older versions... anyone have ideas? [22:46] agruman: so where is the problem then? [22:46] drashy: yes a couple of times [22:46] how do i mount floppy disks... i can scan them, but not do anything with them... [22:46] I'm trying to compile and install the nvidia 96.43.11 driver on 2.6.28-8-rt but it doesn't work. Could itbe possible that this were because my linux-source version is 2.6.28-11? [22:46] gartral1: you could always fall back and mount them 'manually' but i cant even rember the proper device name for a floppy.. [22:47] pw-toxic: well do you have dmraid ok installed? do you have the correct root=/dev/mapper... in menu.lst aso? [22:47] gartral1: http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-3687.html [22:47] kk_jonti: try cat /proc/acpi/battery/BAT0/* [22:47] guess what? when i remove the battry and run the thing on power supply, it says "computer is running on ac power laptop battery fully charged (100%) provides 2 hours battry run time " [22:47] cousteau: System > Administration > hardware drivers [22:47] agruman: i dont know ;) what is dmraid? === Gary is now known as evilGary [22:47] kk_jonti: hmm, sounds like jaunty is broken tbh :P [22:47] neskat: Ok, I stand corrected. This shit is fun. [22:47] If c is a good lang to learn and the only reason not to use it is memory aloc isnt there in linux libraries to over com this [22:48] coleys: that provides the 96.43.10 driver; it doesn't work well [22:48] when i try to do a distribution upgrade I am warned that my nvidia driver is not available for 8.10. I do use my videocard quite frequently, is this something that is easily fixed after the dist-upgrade or is it a good reason not to upgrade? [22:48] pw-toxic: that is the software layer of your fakeraid, see the fakeraidhowto in ubuntu wiki [22:48] drashy: so do I need to buy a new one? [22:48] rsw: you can install nvidia-glx-180 once you get round [22:48] hello , would there be any problem if i remove ubuntu-desktop package ? [22:49] Canaen: yay, someone else discovered ccsm pisses all over emerald :) [22:49] alright, thanks much [22:49] rsw: You will be able to get your nvidia driver again [22:49] rsw: i'd uninstall the driver to smooth the install over [22:49] c7p: not unless you want to remove the ubuntu desktop -_- [22:49] ok [22:49] kk_jonti: a new battery? no, I doubt it [22:49] kk_jonti: its probably just some new bug [22:49] thx xD :) [22:49] agruman: how can i get into a console to do some fixes? [22:49] drashy: i did the cat command [22:50] is there any good guilds to following what ubuntu is doing in the way of programming standards [22:50] hey folks, I have a major bug that causes fatal lockups, and apparently there is a fix for it... add a line to /etc/default/halt file, I did, is there anywhere i can check to see if adding the line does anything at all? [22:50] drashy: what do you exactly wanted me to look at? [22:50] guides [22:50] pw-toxid, the easiest ways is live cd and then some mounts and then chroot, very well explained in the fakeraidhowto [22:50] kk_jonti: paste it to the site in the topic and tell me url, I'll have a look [22:50] Am I the only one who has experienced both 8.10 and 9.04 locking up? [22:50] joshjtl: if you add the line and reboot and then the system doesnt lockup, its fixed it [22:51] thanks. the virus i got is a variant of the virut virus,a nasty polymorphic one that infects any win exe it can. its killing windows and i have files i cant lose to a format so my hope is ubuntu can give me safe passage for transfer from infected drive to clean one [22:51] drashy: which web site? [22:51] what's a good converter to convert avi's to ipod playable mpg's? [22:51] kk_jonti: the paste one :D [22:51] drashy: I must tel you I am a totally blind user and my screen reader does not read every thing [22:51] LethalArmy: Let windows diee. :( [22:51] Dreamglider: ffmpeg, winff (gui) can do that [22:51] LethalArmy: linux can read ntfs natively [22:51] Dreamglider: and proberly others. [22:51] kk_jonti: paste.ubuntu.com [22:52] Dreamglider: winff has settings for ipods I belive. [22:52] drashy: ok [22:52] LethalArmy: it needs extra stuff to write. you should have a backup if the data is important [22:52] drashy: i will just do it hold on [22:52] Dreamglider: ffmpeg and mencoder [22:52] ActionParsnip: yeah, but is there anything in the meantime i can check to see if the line did anything? [22:52] joshjtl: not sure [22:53] Dreamglider: if you use winff, i noticed in the 'settings' i had to set it to use 'xterm' instead of 'default-terminal' or whatever that setting was called.. for it to work right. [22:53] Hello, is it possible to get the battery charge applet (for laptops) to display the charge status of a UPS? (via apcupsd or somthing similar) === the_goat_ is now known as lab-goat [22:54] ubuntu sucks [22:54] is there an application that can be executed on a running gnu/linux system ( installed on the hard disk) that can remove or reset a laptop's bios password?? [22:54] sdcard: never seen such an app. [22:55] drashy: http://paste.ubuntu.com/160971/ [22:55] sdcard: have you tried just reseting the bios? does it still hold the password? [22:55] OMG. Did they really blacklist all X3100 (intel gma 965) blacklist from usage with compiz? [22:55] drashy: that has the output for my battry [22:55] drashy: I have a lenovo thinkpad R60 [22:55] the second "blacklist" should be "cards" [22:56] sdcard: nvm didn't relize you where talking of a laptop. Might not have a way to reset the bios externally. [22:56] kk_jonti: k, well its not the same problem I have with Eee PC [22:56] kk_jonti: try posting on the ubuntu forum about it [22:56] sdcard: http://linux.softpedia.com/get/Security/Cmos-password-recovery-tools-10852.shtml [22:56] drashy: yes i am thinking of the same thing [22:57] Am I the only one who has experienced both 8.10 and 9.04 locking up requiring a reboot to make the computer usable again? [22:57] drashy: what could you make out from the output? I am not a kernel hacker but i feel that the battery is actually not getting charged to its fullest extent? [22:57] sdcard: there is a program called cmospwd [22:58] hi all [22:58] kk_jonti: well it's definitely not getting charged fully according to that [22:58] I istalled ubunturemix on the asus 900 ... it works very slowly .. is it normal ? [22:58] kk_jonti: is it old battery? [22:58] Hi, I have installed another Distro on the same harddrive and now tried to configure grub but get stuck with error 15 file not found. Even though everything should be correct. [22:58] drashy: that's why I am confused. Seems like a battery problem but it is really not so. [22:58] I mean the ubuntu remix graphic interface is very slowly [22:59] !sudo [22:59] sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more information. For graphical applications see !gksu (Gnome, XFCE), or !kdesudo (KDE) [22:59] drashy: but at the same time my laptop is saying it is charged 100% [22:59] how do you get samba shares to auto-mount on startup? [22:59] joelle: man 5 fstab [23:00] http://pastebin.com/m339afb3b [23:00] kk_jonti: theres always some variation but 35590 is far from 56160 [23:00] That would be my part of the grub config. I even tried making the config with kde grub manager but no success. [23:00] drashy: that's my point [23:00] agruman: the ubuntu wiki says that i need the install cd... is there no possibility to fix this problem without reinstalling ubuntu? [23:00] kk_jonti: not sure why its doing that, unless ubuntu is reading the data from the battery wrong, or the battery is reporting it wrong [23:00] where can I get the 2.6.28-3 version of linux-source? [23:01] hi everyone [23:01] is this a solution to my display issue [23:01] kk_jonti: it was in intrepid? [23:01] drashy: and I could except this if my laptop tels me that it is 60% charged and that it can't be charged any more. but although it is not totally charged, my laptop says it is charged 100% [23:01] i wanted to know how to automount them on logon actually, not during boot, cause if the network isnt up at the time it locks up and takes forever to boot [23:01] kk_jonti: it was OK in intrepid even? [23:01] pw-toxic: you dont need to reinstall, you just need to get the machine booted so you can chroot into it. thats what the livecd is for [23:01] so using the fstab doesnt really work for me [23:01] drashy: no it was hardy before [23:02] gstreamer--properties [23:02] joelle: you could mount them via command line from the /etc/rc.local script [23:02] kk_jonti: did it read fine in hardy? [23:02] joelle: (but i just got in on the tail end of this conversation, so not sure what you are doing) [23:02] agruman: ok thx - but its unimportant which version of ubuntu i have on live cd? because i think i have an old one... [23:02] drashy: I used to get a little but of deviation in hardy as well. [23:02] I think the OS just uses the "last full capacity" reading to scale the current charge [23:02] dr_willis: i want to automount 3 network shares at logon [23:02] can anyone guide me on how to upgrade the kernel on a 64 bit kubuntu machine? [23:02] neskat. still here? [23:03] joelle: thats doable from rc.local - done that befor. :) [23:03] drashy: but i used to drain out the laptop and re charge it and things would get right [23:03] pw-toxic: that should not matter, just make sure to install dmraid once in the livecd as you will need that to see the raid [23:03] dr_willis - do you have an ATI card ? [23:03] agruman: thanks - i will look up my ubuntu live cd [23:03] no [23:03] thevdi: goood hevens.. NO.. never again.. :P [23:03] mib_hfph6mfb: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade [23:03] dr_willis: do i just put the normal mount commands in there and rc.local will run them automatically? [23:03] kk_jonti: I think the OS just uses the "last full capacity" reading to scale the current charge rather than the "design capacity" as the actual capacity reduces with age/use [23:03] Me neither. Know anyone who is good with them ? [23:03] joelle: yes.. they will get ran as root. no sudo needed. [23:04] dr_willis: awesome [23:04] joelle: i put in some to mount these shares i got with 'spaces' in the names.. couldent figure out how to mount them via fstab. :P [23:04] drashy: i think so but I can't find the solution to this. [23:05] kk_jonti: yeah, sorry I can't really help :) [23:05] i managed to fix this but in hardy by totally draining the battery and then re charging [23:05] hi i have a 250gb hard drive i am going to do afresh install because my 8.04 is getting a bit buggy after xfce desktop install i was wondering what partition setup you recommend and if i should use ext3 or ext4 i want to have a seperate partition in case ubuntu crashes i can load another because my business runs on my computer [23:05] joelle: theres also the fusesmb (or was it smbfuse) tool that sort of mounts the windows network on the fly.. bit i havent tried it under 9.04 yet. It was flakey under the last release [23:05] drashy: is there a way to refresh the memory used by acpi? [23:05] MTecknology couldnt find package upgrade [23:05] so I've been having this problem with ubuntu locking up on me without giving me any error messages. first started with 8.10 but seems to have continued with 9.04. Is there anywhere here who knows anything about fixing these sorts of issues? [23:05] http://www.battleon.com/aq-signup.asp?friend=879197 best free rpg!!! NO POPUPS OR DOWNLOADS!!!

[23:05] kk_jonti: I have no idea [23:06] drashy: any ways thanks [23:06] dr_willis: i'll give rc.local a try first, gotta reboot to try it out, i'll let you know how it goes :) [23:06] drashy: i will report this on the forum [23:06] mib_hfph6mfb: You tried to install the package upgrade... just run an upgrade [23:06] tgr_: if you need the computer, don't use ext4 yet [23:06] kk_jonti: yw, hope you find a solution [23:06] mib_hfph6mfb: the default package manager handles new kernels [23:07] im using linuxmce so its a little different [23:07] hey, what room should i go to for support on visual effects in 9.04? they're just lagging and they worked great in 8.04 for me... [23:07] anybody know what compilers ubuntu have? [23:07] akorn: #ubuntu-effects [23:07] david0: proberly any you need. :) [23:08] !gcc [23:08] Compiling software from source? Read the tips at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompilingSoftware (But remember to search for pre-built !packages first) [23:08] ok [23:08] ok, does anyone know where I can get help with a problem I've been having with ubuntu? [23:08] hbekel: is reiserfs better than ext3? [23:08] Adyeths: ask [23:09] * Adyeths repeats his question... [23:09] so I've been having this problem with ubuntu locking up on me without giving me any error messages. first started with 8.10 but seems to have continued with 9.04. Is there anywhere here who knows anything about fixing these sorts of issues? [23:09] tgr_: there's no better, filesystems can suit different needs [23:09] Can someone please help me with my Wacom tablet? http://pastebin.com/m23a90bbc [23:09] MTecknology: how do i connect to that again? i never use IRC haha :S [23:09] tgr_: depends on your usage. On a laptop I prefer rfs, otherwise ext3. but I personaly use ext4 now [23:09] Adyeths, dmesg nothing? [23:09] akorn: /join [23:10] MTecknology: thanks haha [23:10] nope. nothing from dmesg. [23:10] yup [23:10] omg. they actually did. [23:10] can anyone point me to where i can find how to set up a dual monitor on 9.04 since its no longer by using the xorg.conf, am using a Nvidia card [23:10] Adyeths, you can reinstall it [23:10] Can I use vpn in a ubuntu 9.04 VM? [23:10] do other OS's lock up? [23:10] dr_willis: just tried putting the commands in rc.local and none of my shares connected automatically... [23:10] you sure it isnt hardware? [23:10] tried that already. reinstall didn't fix it. [23:10] Mtechnology don't you mean murderFS [23:10] I do wonder what the devs had in mind when distributing an ubuntu version that's just broken with compiz on intel and has severe issues on ATI cards as well [23:10] do you have two operating systems? [23:10] ischliky: it does use the xorg.conf.. or at least parts of it.. I used the nvidia-settings tool to tweak/enable twinview.. (ran it as root) saved to the xorg.conf. restarted X - it worked fine [23:10] jz: no - ReiserFS [23:11] dennda ATI has always sucked [23:11] * Adyeths only has one operating system. [23:11] lockups are usually not OS [23:11] joelle: perhaps ya did it wrong? or are they are a wireless network? [23:11] its not ubuntu's fault, ATI doesn't make linux drivers because they are dicks [23:11] jz: leave a persons history out of your decision about a filesystem... [23:11] you need to reinstall your whole computer to factor setting [23:11] jz: The term "suckage" needs to be redefined in order to describe the current situation [23:11] joelle: do you want the shares to mount when you login or after bootup? rc.local gets run only at boot === darweth is now known as darweth12 [23:11] dr_willis, i will give that a try, ty [23:12] jz: I personally don't have ATI. But I always read "buy intel, they have open source drivers". And now what? It's just the pure pain with intel drivers [23:12] gdm loads sort of about the same time rc.local is running. (since gdm is a service) so its possible the rc.local is getting ran a little after you log in. [23:12] dr_willis: i want the shares to mount at login [23:12] joelle: LOGIN is different then 'boot up' :) === halycon is now known as Fuzzybunny [23:12] joelle: rc.local will mount tehm at boot up with the proper commands.. [23:12] dr_willis: i know, thats why i said login === Fuzzybunny is now known as Fuzzybunny69y [23:13] joelle: make them mount to the users home/whatever/dir.. why wait for the user to login> [23:13] joelle: put them in ~/profile [23:13] hi [23:13] Hi all [23:13] MTecknology: but ext4 is too volatile at the moment? [23:13] im not sure a 'user' can run the proper mount commands to mount a 'share' without using the fuse stuff. [23:13] I just want you guys behind Ubuntu to know that 9.04 has been a living dream for me. [23:13] do you have an idea on why grub won't boot, but rather show a blinking cursor? [23:13] A good dream. [23:13] does anyone know how i can use a different font colour for the left hand side of $ in bash (my current path and user)? [23:13] Conic: why is that? [23:13] i added to rc.local smbmount //192.168.15.101/Storage /home/joelle/Storage -o username=xxx,password=xxx and it did nothing, but if i run the same command in a terminal it mounts the share... [23:14] mun_: read the 'bash prompt howto' :) it gives 100000's of prompt examples like that. [23:14] hihi.. for some reason.. ubuntu 9.04 freezes on my compter [23:14] Everything WORKED.
