[00:00] MK-BB: ;) [00:00] anyone here is / know of a solid sysadmin specializing in ubuntu in the seattle area? [00:00] ben__: a job/contract offer? [00:00] i just installed aircrack through the package manager, how do i get it to appear in the applications list === aguadarrama is now known as R4c0nD0g [00:00] losher, http://paste.ubuntu.com/160999/ [00:00] losher: that's right - is that appropriate for this channel? [00:02] ben__: dunno, don't see why not. If you get no joy, I'd try Craigslist... [00:02] losher: thanks :) I think we have an ad out on craiglist, just thought i'd throw a line out in here [00:02] ok this is getting really frustrating, these folders just will NOT automount on boot or login, ive tried adding the commands to fstab, rc.local, and a custom script i found and none work, yet if i run the commands in a terminal the folders mount without a problem [00:02] MK-BB:it still doesn't work [00:02] can anyone help me figure this out [00:02] losher, this is going nowhere; not worth the work; this is a very new machine with very few files on it and they're all backed up to CD [00:02] i just installed aircrack through the package manager, how do i get it to appear in the applications list [00:03] myton, usually just logging out/in fixes that [00:03] apart from the default set of packages that are installed [00:03] Xiong: I understand. Though it should work, the kernel clearly sees a disk at /dev/sda with partitions on it. Let me know if you want to pursue it... [00:03] is there any difference between ubuntu-desktop and ubuntu-server? [00:03] losher, i'm just going to wipe it all out and partition from scratch; you could help by telling me how to create 2 equal boot partitions, either one of which can run the machine; either one can be selected at boot time in grub [00:04] losher, in fact, let me sketch my idea for partitions, pastebin it, and ask you to comment [00:04] Xiong: ok [00:05] tracker has the option "enable thunderbird email indexing" greyed out and checked. Does thunderbird indexing actually work? [00:05] Mytos - you could right click on the menu- edit menus' highlight where you want it to go then click new- name it then put the command to run (creating a launcher) Right now I have one for the Windows Version of Minefield- But one thing is will have the spring. [00:06] Guest57576: try adding the medibuntu repository, check on the website http://medibuntu.org [00:06] its only doing it if i use the synaptic manager, not the main manager in the applications list [00:06] Guest57576:already done [00:06] Looking for a good/easy bash script to backup my mysql databases anyone have one they could share? [00:07] Does anyone here know why my HDD light would flash every second (tracker disabled) [00:07] losher, http://paste.ubuntu.com/161002/ [00:08] im trying to add extra repositories , and the instructions file says to enter it into the tablet , does that just mean terminal? [00:08] * D3f0 is away: Ausente por el momento [00:08] Ghlore: check the system monitor to see what's working [00:09] any one from Albania ? [00:09] Xiong: ok, please stand by [00:09] Ghlore, Id get iwatch... once installed try sudo iwatch -r -e all_events -v -s /foldertomonitor [00:10] hey guys, i just installed kcachegrind on a run of the mill gnome desktop. kcachegrind constantly opens in full screen, no apparent chrome, and i CANT unmaximize or anything. What can i do? [00:10] Got a problem with installing. Not getting error, just don't know how to do it. I have Vista 64 and Vista 32 installed already. I want to install Ubuntu on now.....All are on 1 hard drive, a 500 Gig Hard Drive, Vista 64 is on 100 Gig, Vista 32 is on 100 Gig, and I wnat to install Ubuntu on the rest.....Can someone please help me with this....If i leave it unformatted, it don't seem to alow me to install on it. and if i format it its impossible to. [00:10] .. [00:10] i just tried devilspie to unmaximize it, no go [00:10] esever73 thanks i will try that [00:10] losher, the rationale here is that when i mess up /boot1, i have something to fall back on without any delay whatever [00:10] how would i go about making my own shortcut to aircrack since it wont make one for me [00:10] burntresistor: tablet makes no sence. :) [00:10] Is there a way to find what package installed some file? [00:10] its a fresh install so i take it this is not normal [00:10] Xiong: understood, please stand by [00:10] Mytos: I told you a few posts earlier. [00:11] ie. "whichPackage /usr/bin/perl" says "perl5" or something, you know? [00:11] dr_willis, i like tablets === fuli is now known as Guest58227 [00:11] Xiong: Stone Tablets? or Alka-seltzer tablets? [00:11] xine keeps zeroing my PCM mixer [00:11] Ghlore, anytime, yea that iwatch will tell you what files are being accessed, written, deleted, and whatnot it can even send emails to the admin and stuff :) [00:11] dr_willis, graphics tablets? [00:11] how do i stop that [00:11] Mytos: you could right click on the menu- edit menus' highlight where you want it to go then click new- name it then put the command to run (creating a launcher) Right now I have one for the Windows Version of Minefield- But one thing is will have the spring. [00:11] you told me to make a launcher, i have no idea where the package manager put it in my file system though [00:12] Mytos got a link from where you installed it from so I can look up the program [00:12] Hi al I can't update by 8.04 and this is what I get --> http://www.mibbit.com/pb/f0wLgo [00:12] Mytos: the nice thing about linux... you don't need to know where it is, you just need to know the command [00:12] i installed it from the synaptics package manager [00:13] wow privoxy is really slowwww. [00:13] i dont know the command [00:13] When I open a new firefox session, there's a "ghost image" of the last thing I was looking at via firefox, until my home page fully loads. That's really annoying. :) [00:13] synaptic [00:13] why am I getting "NVIDIA: could not open the device file /dev/nvidiactl (Permission denied)." when running opengl programs? [00:13] Mytos: try aircrack as a command [00:14] should I re-install ubuntu? [00:14] i dont want the command, i just want a stupid shortcut [00:14] Xiong: http://paste.ubuntu.com/161004/ [00:14] Dopievoli: For what reason? [00:14] * Xiong looks [00:14] Mytos: what do you want a shortcut for? [00:14] Mytos: like a clickable icon for it? [00:15] coleys, I'm getting this http://www.mibbit.com/pb/Dsbuam [00:15] i want a package i installed to show up in the applications list, thats it [00:15] are KDE apps support to open full screen, with no chrome in gnome? [00:15] Has anyone tried Codeweavers Crossover? [00:15] aparently you dont realize you make a 'launcher' that runs the command? [00:15] Mytos: its not a gui program but you could launch a terminal with a shortcut then type th ecommand in. [00:15] doesnt ubuntu come with a gui for cron of some sort? i dont see it [00:15] kcachegrind is giving me problems [00:15] i have a Gigabyte board and K10 based Quad Core AMD chip. I cant get pwm working. I can see the temp in sensors. [00:15] Mytos: right click on the applications are and click edit menus [00:15] Mytos: not all apps have icons not all are gui apps. [00:15] Dopievoli: An error? [00:15] People, how to install GRUB onto external HDD? (in LiveCD) [00:15] anyone know of a way to find out the full version of the currently running kernel (eg 2.6.8-11.42)? [00:15] !grub [00:15] GRUB is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost GRUB after installing Windows? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreGrub - GRUB how-tos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto [00:15] homeskill: gnome-schedule is a gui for cron [00:15] how to list drivers? [00:15] !grub > w3wsrmn [00:15] w3wsrmn, please see my private message [00:15] the package im need IS gui [00:16] coleys, yes when I apt-get update this is what I get [00:16] any idea when LP is back up ?? [00:16] How to list HDDs? [00:16] oh.. that doesn't matter. :P [00:16] How can i get conky? [00:16] how frequently is allowed to repeat a question? [00:16] Many of my menu bars have disappeared for some reason in Gnome under Jaunty all of a sudden. Might there be a way to reenable them? Attempting to do so from within each program fails. Alt does not allow for navigation of them, so they are not hidden. [00:16] losher, okay, small question, why is root2 not bootable? bigger question: how do i do this? [00:16] That just means the server could be down. [00:16] HSNews: fdisk -l [00:16] histo: no, that's not what i'm looking for. I need the *comeplete* version, not just 2.6.28-11 or whatever [00:16] danielrmt how do i get to it? [00:16] has the blacklist been renamed /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf [00:16] You can remove that from sources.list if you wanted. [00:16] It's been happening for two weeks [00:16] Mytos: some times menus dont refresh instantly. or the package maker may of goofed up and put the icon in the wrong place. or ya may need to log out/back in to make the menus refresh [00:16] w3wsrmn: ? you want to install to usb? [00:16] losher, for reference, i have 120 Gb altogether to work with [00:16] can a server be down for two weeks? [00:16] ?? [00:17] Fdisk -l - doesn't output [00:17] Dopievoli: Do in terminal... sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list [00:17] HSNews: its 'sudo fdisl -l' [00:17] also; how can i get the total bytes for a source tree ?? [00:17] HSNews: its 'sudo fdisk -l' [00:17] losher, i do not understand the difference between name and mount point, neither do i see how to assign them independently [00:17] so that source is unimportant? [00:17] Dopievoli: Then Find the http://security.ubuntu and remove that line. [00:17] Not really. [00:17] histo: no, i need to know the complete version of the currently running kernel, such as 2.6.28-11.42 [00:17] homeskill: you can install it in synaptic [00:17] ive rebooted twice willis, you guys are repeating the same suggestions to me, all i need is to put a link between the package i installed with synaptic into the applications list, its a gui program theres no reason i shouldnt be able to, all i need to know is HOW [00:17] Xiong: please stand by [00:17] w3wsrmn: uname -a [00:18] it's not security update source? [00:18] Can someone help i try searching for conky in synaptic but i can't find it [00:18] how to install GRUB onto /dev/sdb1 ? [00:18] Mytos: the menu editor would let you add a new menu item/launcher if you want. once you learn the 'command' to launch the app. [00:18] Hi. I would like to have the content of my /usr/ directory in a memory card to save some gb of space in my poor 4gb hd. I would like to know if I can solve this using the same way I would do in a /home/ one. I ask, because I think some files in /usr/ are requested before the system mount the partitions in /etc/fstab. So? [00:18] how can i get total bytes of a download trunk ? [00:18] !grub > HSNews [00:18] HSNews, please see my private message [00:18] histo: no, that's not it. that returns only 2.6.28-11. but thanks for trying [00:18] hello - how can i change the default editor that nautilus uses when i double click a text file ? [00:18] Dopievoli: You don't need it, if it's not working. The server isn't online if you can't acess it. [00:18] w3wsrmn: what are you trying to do i'm confused by your question [00:18] Dopievoli: So you can remove it, and you'll be fine. [00:18] Mytos: try opeing up Nautilus then use its search and look for (make sure to turn on the show hidden) aircrack [00:19] jbaker: do you have another text editor installed? [00:19] !find aircrack [00:19] Found: aircrack-ng [00:19] Sylar: yes [00:19] that server doesn't serve the security updates than? [00:19] jbaker: Did you try right clicking on the text file? [00:19] how long launchpad down for ? [00:19] Xiong: It can all be done in gparted from the live CD. You can only have one bootable partition, but that's all you need. The file /boot/menu/grub.lst will let you choose which partition to boot the os from [00:19] nvm. Just figured out that globalmenu is having issues. === coleys is now known as NathanPatrelli [00:19] hello ? === NathanPatrelli is now known as coleys [00:19] :x!! [00:19] Mytos: right click on your desktop> create launcher, fill the fields (in the command one write aircrack) and you will have an icon to launch your app [00:19] Sylar: yes - but it doesn't stick - do i need to reboot or something ? [00:20] three thing are really annoying me, one, pidgin's irc.. the chanserv message is always displayed when i join, how do i stop that, 2 xine is zeroing my PCM mixer levels... and 3, the BIG one, xine is crashing on fullscreen enable... [00:20] jbaker: you shouldn't have to [00:20] i need helping with installing a program, mocha can someone help me? [00:20] coleys, so that source is not for security updates for ubuntu? [00:20] Why sometimes, I open my Ubuntu and some preferences in Compiz just stop working? like the cube and others? [00:20] anyone ? [00:20] gartral1: use irssi not pidgin for irc. [00:20] I dont see any 'gui' for aircrack-ng perhaps its a seperate package. [00:20] Xiong: You could have e.g. 8.04 installed on root1, and 9.04 installed on root2, and choose which one to run at boot time. Questions? Keep asking till it's clear [00:20] jbaker: hold on a moment [00:20] or no ? [00:20] losher, ty, i'm going to boot CD and try this -- unfortunately, if i fail, i will have destroyed my old system and will not be able to return for more help -- any last words? [00:20] Dopievoli: The source contains all the info for where you get your packages. [00:21] jbaker: ok [00:21] Dopievoli: There is many urls in it, and the one that is not working is the one you can remove. [00:21] w3wsrmn: are you talking about their physical location in /boot? [00:21] jbaker: right click on your text file you want to open and select properties [00:21] coleys: pidgin is there, its conveinent, and setup, i dont want to have to open 7 console windows when trying to debug stuff, 4-6 is pleanty already... [00:21] Hi. I upgraded to Ubuntu 9.04 last night and lost all of my sound. Can anyone make suggestions for how to fix this? Thanks in advance [00:21] Sylar: k [00:21] gardar, use xchat [00:21] jbaker: choose the open with tab and select the text editor you want to use [00:21] :p [00:21] Xiong: not so fast. Let [00:21] is the only way to disable/mute the pcspkr is to blacklist it + rmmod pcspkr ?? [00:21] !who eseven73 [00:21] Sorry, I don't know anything about who eseven73 [00:21] gartral1,sorry [00:21] !who| eseven73 [00:21] eseven73: As you can see, this is a large channel. If you're speaking to someone in particular, please put their nickname in what you say (use !tab), or else messages get lost and it becomes confusing :) [00:21] jbaker: did that help? [00:22] Xiong: not so fast. Lets talk about names & mount points first [00:22] k [00:22] Sylar: great - yes thank you ! [00:22] I know gartral1 you and gardar have similar nicks sorry :P [00:22] anyway, i just blocked chanserv, so thats end of that [00:22] jbaker: my pleasure :) [00:22] what i have written (on paper) i will copy to pastebin now [00:22] Hi. I would like to have the content of my /usr/ directory in a memory card to save some gb of space in my poor 4gb hd. I would like to know if I can solve this using the same way I would do in a /home/ one. I ask, because I think some files in /usr/ are requested before the system mount the partitions in /etc/fstab. So? [00:22] Xiong: since you only have one disk, it will almost certainly be named /dev/sda [00:23] eseven73: any ideas on the xine related problems? [00:23] nope sorry [00:23] bump [00:23] QUESTION: How do I add more desktops instead of just having 1 when using the netbook remix ubuntu release? [00:23] Xiong: the partitions on the disk will be named /dev/sda1, /dev/sda2 etc. The numbers get assigned depending on the order you create the partitions [00:23] histo: no, i needed to find out the *complete* version number of the currently running kernel (beyond what is listed in menu.lst or uname -r), but I found it in dmesg. thanks though [00:23] JesperHansen: not sure you can when using the netbook interface. [00:23] JesperHansen: you mean more workspaces? [00:24] I have a problem with low volume. I installed Pulse Audio paman to try to fix it, now I have no audio and my volume control on my desktop crashes if I try to open it. I removed Pulse Audio with the package manager but still have no sound and my volume control still crashes. [00:24] histo: yes. [00:24] how to get list of drivers like (hd0,2) and etc [00:24] @ANYONE I'm having trouble with aptitude. Some repositories (notably, all security repositories) aren't being found. Could someone try "sudo apt-get update"? I am curious if this is a local problem. [00:24] HSNews: hard DRIVES you mean? 'sudo fdisk -l' [00:24] HSNews: Grub 'enumerates' themn differently then linux does also... sda = hd0, sdb = hd1 [00:24] dr_willis: Yea, I wanted to check it out for having some "new" instead of just following the regular ubuntu since 04 :P [00:24] QUESTION: Hi. I would like to have the content of my /usr/ directory in a memory card to save some gb of space in my poor 4gb hd. I would like to know if I can solve this using the same way I would do in a /home/ one. I ask, because I think some files in /usr/ are requested before the system mount the partitions in /etc/fstab. So? [00:25] Xiong: too much action in the main channel, wanna go private? [00:25] Hello, I recently upgraded my ubuntu 8.10 (64-bit) distribution to ubuntu 9.04 (64-bit), and after doing so, my resolution can only go up to 800x600. My laptop has a nVidia 7150 integrated gfx card. When I go to hardware drivers, I get two options the "NVIDIA accelerated graphics driver (version 180)" and "NVIDIA accelerated graphics driver (version 173)". When I click activate it shows that it is downloading, however i [00:25] t will not activate. I have also tried envyng which gives me an error regarding my headers: "EnvyNG has detected that the headers for your kernel are missing and cannot be installed". The official NVIDIA driver installer gives me a similar error regarding the headers. [00:25] JesperHansen: i used it on my AcerAspireOne. then enabled the 'normal' desktop. dont like that netbook-desktop-interface [00:25] JesperHansen: hrm... isn't it using gnome? you should be able to add a workspace switcher to the panel. [00:25] I install Kubuntu onto External HDD from PC, and I can't load Kubuntu from Laptop (connected to external)... [00:25] histo: it has its own special 'netbook interface' in addation to the normal gnome desktop option [00:25] I think it about disks [00:25] losher, yes pls [00:25] JesperHansen: I don'thave too much experience with netbook remix though so I could be wrong. But try right clicking on a panel [00:25] mqrk, works for me using http://ubuntu.cs.utah.edu [00:25] dr_willis: ahh you may be able to help more. [00:25] why am I getting "NVIDIA: could not open the device file /dev/nvidiactl (Permission denied)." when running opengl programs? [00:26] is the only way to disable/mute the pcspkr is to blacklist it + rmmod pcspkr ?? [00:26] Tech-Mike: you can try alsamixer [00:26] eseven73 thank you [00:26] histo: via terminal? [00:26] Tech-Mike: yes [00:26] histo: i8 thx [00:26] how do i install GTK libraries? [00:26] dr_willis: Gotta almost agree there, though I gives somewhat quick access to the first app I launch. Not anything else :) [00:27] Tech-Mike: let me check some other things though. [00:27] I recently upgraded my ubuntu 8.10 (64-bit) distribution to ubuntu 9.04 (64-bit), and after doing so, my resolution can only go up to 800x600. [00:27] JesperHansen: for the wife/kids it may be ok. but not for me and how i work. [00:27] does anyone know what could be wrong? [00:27] histo: hmm, that only gives me properties, I gotta try to change theme, move a slider and see If I can add something afterwards [00:28] Tech-Mike: you should also be able to do it by double clicking volume icon [00:28] dr_willis: Actually wanted to check it out before giving it to parents :) [00:28] Whats the best dvd encoder for linux???? [00:28] cloudpjff7: I had to edit a text file to set my resolution when I installed the first time, perhaps that would do it. I cannot remember the name of the file though [00:28] Tech-Mike: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=671274 [00:28] histo: i already stuck it in /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf and rmmoded it.....the pcspkr isnt in my volume control [00:28] Sylar_: you mean encode video to 'format suiteable for a dvd disk' ? [00:28] JesperHansen: nah I guess its a different interface as some have comented. Maybe someone else will know. [00:28] dr_willis: yes [00:28] Tech-Mike: checkout that thread [00:28] Sylar_: or you want a tool to do that and gernate a suitable dvd.iso file as well? [00:28] Wow. As a long-time hater of Ubuntu, I have to hand it to you guys. Holy crap the new ubuntu is phenominal [00:28] histo: theres no system beep tab [00:29] Sylar_: i tend to use 'DeVeDe' to make dvd video disks from video files. [00:29] dr_willis: one that's like vso's convertx for windows [00:29] Devede rocks!! === mrlolplx is now known as mrlol [00:29] hmmm [00:29] When I go to hardware drivers, I get two options the "NVIDIA accelerated graphics driver (version 180)" and "NVIDIA accelerated graphics driver (version 173)". When I click activate it shows that it is downloading, however it will not activate. [00:29] JesperHansen: Preferences > Switch Desktop mode got to classic and add more workspaces [00:29] so i'm not really sure what to do [00:30] JesperHansen: by right clicking onthe icon by the trash can. [00:30] Tech-Mike: in that link I posted is several ways to turn it off xset b off in terminal is another way. [00:30] cloudpjff7: search for "video resolution problem gedit khz hz" on google and that might help find it. [00:30] cloudpjff7: pick thje Nvidia drifver you wwant to activate and reboot [00:30] Sylar_: no idea. neer used that app. so it depends on your needs.. DeVeDe does what i need. :) [00:30] well i click activate and it doesn't light up [00:31] Sylar_: the actual 'encoding' is normally handled by mencoder, or ffmpeg i think [00:31] and when i restart i have to start in generic mode, with low resolution [00:31] dr_willis: can i get devede from synaptic? [00:31] cloudpjff7: you got to reboot to activate it [00:31] I have a problem with low volume. I installed Pulse Audio paman to try to fix it, now I have no audio and my volume control on my desktop crashes if I try to open it. I removed Pulse Audio with the package manager but still have no sound and my volume control still crashes. How do I get audio back on this thing?

[00:32] is there a package I could reinstall that might fix this? or is there a cryptic text file I need to edit?

[00:37] I want to make konqueror not look like it escaped from a Mac [00:37] cloudpjff7: You sure your card is supported by it? [00:37] konqueror is kde. [00:37] ya, i have an nvidia 7150m [00:37] Where's a good place to go for audio problems? [00:37] Yes, & I am saying I want to change the KDE 4 theme [00:37] holyguyver: ubuntu and kubuntu are the SAME thing, only difference is kubuntu is based around the kde desktop [00:37] Smokalotapotamus: #alsa? [00:37] i click activate and nothign happens, even after restart [00:37] I just installed ubuntu 9.04 on my macbook pro and I have no audio, and no devices in the mixer. Can someone help? [00:37] #alsa [00:37] oops [00:37] lol [00:37] cloudpjff7: do you have more than one kernel installed ? [00:37] holyguyver: just fire up systemsettings or qt-config ... it should be using the Gnome theme though? [00:38] gardar, I have been using Linux for 6 years, I know the differance. [00:38] rrplay: I'm not sure how would i find out? [00:38] * gartral1 is glad he isnt gardar [00:38] holyguyver: The way you ask questions doesn't make it apparent [00:38] gartral1, I have been using Linux for 6 years, I know the differance. [00:38] rrplay: i might because i updated to 9.04 from 8.10 [00:38] Is dolphin a better file manager than ubuntu's default? [00:38] holyguyver: you need qtconfig, but I don't know the package name [00:38] holyguyver: your question makes you sound like a noob, sorry [00:38] Sylar_: it is different, but better is objective [00:39] cloudpjff7: thought I had read something like that from you prev [00:39] Sylar_: Try it, form your own opinion [00:39] piroko: will it work well on ubuntu w/ gnome? [00:39] * fde thinks he means subjective [00:39] xine is failing to go fullscreen.... http://gar.pastebin.com/m17e51b8f is the output of a terminal session [00:39] rrplay: well envyng gives me a header error when i try installing nvida from it: ""EnvyNG has detected that the headers for your kernel are missing and cannot be installed" [00:39] but i'm not sure myself [00:39] Sylar_: new dolphin isnt bad but isnt as good as old kde3 dolphin. i use nautilus [00:39] Sylar_: its a file manager, desktop environment is irrelevant, although gnome uses nautilus for a lot of stuff so its sort of pointless [00:40] danielrmt: qt4-dev-tools or libqt4-dev or both [00:40] GartrNo it is just that I know how to change themes in KDE3 & in Gnome, but since in Gnome I do not have the theme changing program for KDE4 I was not sure how to change the theme for the KDE programs. [00:40] Does anyone know whats the name for that apple dock? [00:40] Sylar_: It won't give a crap. It'll work on whatever you pu tit on [00:40] gartral1 it is just that I know how to change themes in KDE3 & in Gnome, but since in Gnome I do not have the theme c [00:40] drmrhorse_: that makes no sense, kde3 dolphin was hacked together so KDE users could use the KDE4 stuff before KDE4 was ready [00:40] changing program for KDE4 I was not sure how to change the theme for the KDE programs. [00:40] Sylar_: There are many. Link a screenshot to one or something [00:41] kde3 dolphin and kde4 dolphin are different [00:41] piroko: can you direct me to one [00:41] holyguyver: system>prefrences>qt 4 setting [00:41] s [00:41] holyguyver: qt-config or systemsettings in the appearance module... take your pick [00:41] Sylar_: avant-window-navigator [00:41] piroko: can i get that on synaptic? [00:42] cloudpjff7: you are using envy rather than enabling restricted drivers Nvidia?on the neweer kernel [00:42] Sylar_: Be more self sufficient. You can answer that question yourself :P [00:42] Lazy [00:42] gartral1, Thank you I see it now [00:42] rrplay: I've tried both restricted drivers and envy, neither work [00:42] cloudpjff7: hence the kernel version mismatch [00:42] piroko: life advice is on another channel [00:42] Sylar_: some docks are avant window navigator, cairo dock and gnome do-cky [00:42] gartral1, As said I am still on a learning curve out of KDE3, this is my first day with KDE4 apps [00:43] Hi... having a problem playing wma files in rhytmbox on Jaunty. Trying to play a wma file causes it to freeze. After that you can't play any other song, and it won't exit. I have to kill it from the terminal. [00:43] drmrhorse_: But it helps to get rid of useless spam on here [00:43] piroko: no it doesnt help. refer to the CoC [00:43] danielrmt: thank daniel i'll be looking at avant first. Do you use any of those? [00:43] I have codecs to play the wma files, because if I browse to the song in nautilus and point at it, gnome preview starts to play the wma file. [00:43] oOarthurOo: to play wma, you need the w32codecs [00:43] I have an aterm window displayed at startup. Is there a way to force the aterm window to remain below all other windows? [00:43] Sylar_: I use Gnome Do's Docky [00:43] holyguyver: np, there are people who have used linux for 10 years and still dont know their way around the confusion that having multiple desktop environments leads too === lupine_ is now known as lupine_85 [00:44] cloudpjff7: look here please http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1136343 [00:44] drmrhorse_: Not in the topic. Link me and I will [00:44] danielrmt: and how do you like that one? [00:44] oOarthurOo: to install windows codecs, you need the medibuntu repositories in http://www.medibuntu.org/ [00:44] ftr... konqueror is terrible =p [00:44] http://www.ubuntu.com/community/conduct [00:45] !coc | piroko [00:45] piroko: The Ubuntu Code of Conduct to which we ask all Ubuntu users to adhere can be found at http://www.ubuntu.com/community/conduct/ [00:45] Sylar_: yes, i enjoy it very much. it's a task launcher too (it searches for your contacts, musics), not only a dock [00:45] danielrmt: Thanks, but as stated I've got the codecs and can play the songs using gnome-preview or totem. The problem is trying to play them in RB causes RB to freeze. [00:45] drmrhorse_: k. So I take back the lazy remark. Besides that I don't believe I was out of line [00:45] i see [00:46] danielrmt: how's the appearance of the app? Does it look alot like osx or is it customizable? [00:46] no, it does not look like osx, and is not customizable [00:46] Teaching users how to answer their own questions is a major step to getting more profficient at linux [00:46] it is a young project [00:46] When I used the... ubuntu-restricted-extras Rb would freeze... For it to not freeze I had to allow rb to find the codecs itself [00:46] how do i do a quick restart of X? alt-ctrl-delete don't work [00:47] alt-ctrl-backspace [00:47] i mean [00:47] Hey guys, if I install kubuntu-desktop in synaptic, will i be able to choose if i want to load gnome or kde before i login? thanks [00:47] GartraSee I also added the kde3 repo, but after I installed the KDE3 konqueror no menu item was added & I cannot find out the CLI name for it to bring it up or to use to create a shortcut for it. [00:47] Hey guys, if I install kubuntu-desktop in synaptic, will i be able to choose if i want to load gnome or kde before i login? thanks [00:47] oOarthurOo: I would run rhythmbox in a terminal and report a bug [00:47] My bad double post [00:47] ralmar: Yeah. [00:47] gartral1, I also added the kde3 repo, but after I installed the KDE3 konqueror no menu item was added & I cannot find out the CLI name for it to bring it up or to use to create a shortcut for it. [00:47] arash_: X disables that by default now. You can either run sudo killall Xorg or re-enable the c-a-backspace in your xorg.conf [00:47] danielrmt: Yeah... trying to look up for similar bugs on launchpad right now, but it might be down. === ChanServ changed the topic of #ubuntu to: Official Ubuntu Support Channel | Channel Guidelines: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines | FAQ: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FAQ | Support options: http://www.ubuntu.com/support | IRC info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC | Pastes to http://paste.ubuntu.com | Install Ubuntu: http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/download | Jaunty 9.04 Released | http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/releasenotes/904 | http://torrent.ubuntu.com:6969 [00:47] ralmar: yes, there is a place on the logon screen to choose which session you want [00:47] where is xorg.conf?

If this is happening now, just relax and enjoy the show. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Netsplit [00:48] gartral1, I am in gnome right now [00:49] coleys: Also, useful command is "locate".

That's what ncdu is ;) [00:52] i upgraded my video card semi recently and X fails to boot, i've upgraded the nvidia drivers from the command line, but that didn't help, any guesses? [00:52] eseven73: Lol. I've been using slack for 8 years and arch for 3, so that makes sense ;) [00:53] eseven73: But still, I believe users feel good about themselves when they know how to figure out problems themselves and ask for help when they get really stuck [00:53] !torsmo [00:53] Sorry, I don't know anything about torsmo [00:53] exit [00:54] besides using the command to mount isos is there a program for linux like poweriso or alcohol 120%? [00:54] piroko: kde 3.5 had a tool like that - I really liked.. :( i miss it. [00:54] piroko: one of the good things about ubuntu is that the community is willing to do some hand-holding to get people to adopt linux [00:54] Steven10172: In case no one answered you earlier, Evolution Mail is an evil program written by Darwin and Satan that is used to let satans followers communicate with him to help spread the lies of evolution. Only through Jesus can you be saved. Please don't open it... I will pray for you [00:54] otherwise i would agree completely [00:54] drmrhorse_: I am willing to do it as well. I wouldn't be here if I wasn't [00:54] Sylar_: wht feature of those tools are you looking for? theres no tools to 'fake copy protection' for copy pritected cd's under linux :) [00:54] drmrhorse_, I believe that is what makes Ubuntu so successful [00:55] piroko: its the cross that we must bear. cheers [00:55] Sylar_: theres the mounting of the iso with mount, then thers the fuseiso (or was it isofuse?) or similer tools that do basically the same thing [00:55] dr_willis: the feature that lets me mount an image [00:55] Sylar_: mount, or the fuse tools.. let you mount them [00:55] dr_willis: do you use any of those apps? === maximo is now known as Maximo [00:55] fuseiso - FUSE module to mount ISO filesystem images [00:55] fuseiso9660 - File System in User Space - Module for ISO9660 [00:55] baobab <-- graphical disk usage monitor for GNOME [00:55] Sylar_: i have befor. they are rather easy to use.

Every time i boot up, my window list panel is above my menu panel. I then reverse it, and again, when i reboot, its not set right. I even tried leaving the panels the way ubuntu wants, and moving the actual objects on the panels (window list, menus, etc) to opposing panels.. and STILL ubuntu flips them. Any thoughts? [01:00] its probermy a front end to fuseiso or similer [01:00] gISOMount is a utility for mounting and managing .iso images with the added capabilities of calculating md5sums, and reading various volume information.

[01:19] CocoaCoder: see ya [01:19] Thank you, Pici [01:20] saiki: it is a dell e1405 with an intel 945 video. this seems to be a well-known problem, for which billions of people have use the 915resolution program to fix [01:20] neilv, I have a acer aspire with 945gm it works fine [01:20] saiki: what resolution? === jean is now known as Guest87873 [01:20] I missed what CocoaCoder was "asking" can anyone let me know?

[01:21] Twitter and tweet. :) where DO they get these names. [01:21] dr_willis, Mac has difficulty doing Free lmao [01:21] my understanding is that the video bios doesn't have the 1280x800 resolution, so the xorg driver does not consider it. the 915resolution hack is to hack the correct resolution into a slot of the bios [01:22] randomusr: or even 'affordable' - [01:22] how true [01:22] baz: Have you enabled the twitter plugin in Do's preferences? === claptrap is now known as babywax [01:22] neilv, mine had that rez [01:22] unfortunately, 915resolution is gone, but the xorg intel driver does not seem to work around the problem [01:22] dr_willis, randomusr: Please try to keep it on topic here. [01:22] Anyways to my question, I have a partition that won't mount. Gparted sees it as unrecognized, but sometimes as ext3 (which it is). When I try to fsck it it says bad superblock and to try "fsck -b 8193 /dev/sdf5" but it doesn't work. sdf5 is logical off of sdf4, any ideas? [01:22] hmm I set persistence on my ubuntu usb drive is there a way to view what's inside the casper-rw file? [01:22] Pici, trying [01:22] saiki: it doesn't work here. it seems stuck at 1024x786 [01:22] that was funny [01:22] neilv, maybe find the old driver? [01:22] ipodman715: its either cpio or ext2 [01:22] whoops i got knocked off there [01:23] In windows I went to 1280*1024 , Ubuntu only pushes 1180*whatever [01:23] ipodman715: run file on the file? [01:23] I'm sure SOMEONE has it lol [01:23] how do you merge partitions in Ubuntu? [01:23] hmm ok [01:23] Serenka: not very easially (or at all that i know of) [01:23] ipodman715: wikipedia page explains how to use cpio btw === BadDancer is now known as BadEagle [01:23] thanks I'll look it up [01:23] Serenka: I would remove one partition then resize the other [01:24] shouldn't *buntu want t restart after a partial finishes? [01:24] argh what's the unmagnify shortcut [01:24] this is a dell laptop. a lot of people will have this problem. moving her to an old driver will give her years of headache as updates break things [01:24] !cpi ipodman715 [01:24] Sorry, I don't know anything about cpi ipodman715 [01:24] hey all [01:24] can't figure out where else to ask this, so I'll ask you :) [01:24] jtaji: I cannot remove it because it wants all the partitions after it to be deleted [01:24] I just played frets on fire and my screen's all zoomed in [01:24] how do I force my CPUs to stay at the lowest freq rather than scaling up? [01:24] brbr guys, gonna reboot [01:25] can brasero create .iso of /home? I don't really want to install k3b with all those libs , and I cant figure out genisoimage [01:25] !cpi | ipodman715 [01:25] Sorry, I don't know anything about cpi [01:25] my laptop is over-heating and shutting down while I'm playing wesnoth :) [01:25] !fishing [01:25] Please investigate with me only with "/msg ubottu Bot" or in #ubuntu-bots.

[01:25] piroko, yes i did [01:26] ipodman715, maybe is that the whole name [01:26] yes [01:26] demon_: unetbootin [01:26] yeah I used that on my flash drive [01:26] nondestructive [01:26] guess i'll give her debian or fedora or something [01:27] Question: How do you save the position of gnome panels? Every time i boot up, my window list panel is above my menu panel. I then reverse it, and again, when i reboot, its not set right. I even tried leaving the panels the way ubuntu wants, and moving the actual objects on the panels (window list, menus, etc) to opposing panels.. and STILL ubuntu flips them. Any thoughts? [01:27] baz: k, give me a second [01:27] thanks dr_willis :) [01:27] what do you do when a partial fails? [01:27] how do I list directories only in terminal? ls -??? [01:28] Is there a way to make a window stay below all other windows? [01:28] eseven73: you can do something like: 'mkisofs -R -J -o home.iso /home' to make an iso [01:28] partial upgrade* [01:28] Should I be using radeon or radeonhd for an R500 chipset? [01:28] Hello, I want to add Music player to my auto startup so that my podcast subscriptions will download automatically. How do I do this? [01:28] losher, ok thanks ill try that do I need to install anything? [01:28] baz: Look at this: http://psankar.blogspot.com/2008/08/gnome-do-twitter.html and the first comment below it :) [01:29] eseven73: mkisofs is in the genisoimage package, dunno if it's there by default [01:29] can someone tell me a good ftp program for ubuntu 9.04 ? [01:29] yeah it is, thanks losher [01:29] under what name is mpeg2video codec under is the repos, winff cant find it [01:30] Leemp, try "killall gnome-panel" in the terminal after you get it set the way you want - although I've never had problems with settings being auto-saved... Odd. [01:30] fore: gftp [01:30] ^^ [01:30] linux-2.6.28-rc1/drivers/hwmon/it87.c is a partial path. Where is the linux-2.6.28 folder? [01:30] how do you fix a partial upgrade failing? [01:30] fore: I use nautilus [01:30] super + R is not removing the magnification from my screen. [01:30] how can I change the default permissions of new files? [01:30] Madpilot: Well it saves.. eg, if i put one panel on the bottom, and one on the top, THEN it stays that way. But if i put them both on the top, it always puts the window list panel above the menu panel [01:30] Madpilot: Its bizarre [01:31] sproaty: try 'super/windows key and the mouse wheel' [01:31] That's weird, it works, but I can only zoom in further, not out [01:31] fore: you can type ftp urls into firefox. I used to use ncftp, but now I mostly use wget for cli retrievals [01:31] Madpilot: I even said fine, screw it, and left the panels in place but moved the content in the panels.. so i switched all the objects in each panel to the other one (window list onto the menu panel, and vise-versa), and when i rebooted, it _STILL_ flipped them [01:32] it's like I'm stick at 600x480 magnification with 1280x1024 resolution [01:32] Madpilot: I was in awe. [01:32] Leemp, not sure what to suggest. Try just using one panel, stretched to have two lines in it? [01:32] saiki: very much depends on the details of the failures. Some are irrecoverable, others just need a simple tweak. What happened, exactly... [01:32] Madpilot: Ooo, i didnt know you could do that [01:33] Madpilot: How do you do that? [01:33] Hi, this is kind of a dumb question but if I want to ping my router to see if its dropping any packets, which flag am I looking for within the ping command [01:33] Madpilot: Size just increases the height, and the objects in it just expand to fit it. [01:33] i just started a patch command. How long should it take? [01:33] losher, it just keeps repeating [01:33] argh. fuck this [01:34] Leemp, I had thought that was possible... recall doing it by mistake several versions of Ubuntu ago, but can't remember how (I was messing around late one night...) [01:34] saiki: uh, repeating what? [01:34] hi, I just installed jaunty. I am having a problem with xfontsel. TTF fonts such as ttf-inconsolata do not appear. (I want to use a program called dmenu, that's why I need this to work) [01:34] losher, the same updates, over and over [01:34] sproaty: tut, this is a family channel... [01:34] losher: he left [01:34] piroko, thanks... seems a bit awkward tho [01:34] Has anyone had issues with deleted files not showing up in the trash folder in Jaunty? I am running the 64-bit version. [01:35] not here [01:35] Leemp: how rude... [01:35] MagicDuck1: Use "xft-" as the font. ttf fonts won't show up in xfontsel because it only shows X fonts [01:35] losher: Blech :P [01:35] MagicDuck1: May or may not work... I'm sorry if it doesn't [01:35] keith_: noticed something like that, also 64bit here [01:35] losher: I can feel his pain. hehe [01:35] HOW Long does a PATCH command take. My command line is just stalling after i started the command, is this normal!!!!! [01:35] MaT-dg: Have you figured out the cause or a workaround? [01:35] I'm running ubuntu 9.04 on an acer laptop, sound works ok.... except on websites.am I missing a plugin or is it something else? [01:35] losher: I was that way when i installed jaunty and realized some retard put up a horrible version of Amarok in the main repo. ;) [01:35] Any problems with latest firefox upgrade?? [01:36] keith_: No, just realised it myself :P [01:36] losher: I had to use a crappy hack, along with many others, to go BACK to amarok 1.4. :p [01:36] Sergeant_Pony: probably flash [01:36] evantandersen: it may be reading from stdin, waiting for your input [01:36] is there configuration for wireless network priority anywhere? [01:36] evantandersen: you've done something wrong. Patch is fast, and usually noisy... [01:36] hbekel so what should I type [01:36] danielrmt, I have flash installed [01:36] I'm using 8.04 [01:36] losher i downloaded the file then typed sudo patch 'pathtopatchfile' [01:37] I connected to a friend's network at his college and ecah time my laptop starts it tries to connect to that network name again [01:37] even though it's not even found [01:37] losher: [01:37] (damnit, I did it agian...)

[01:41] losher, I'm already on jaunty [01:41] hmmmm gfx driver still not working [01:41] hbekel i get this error: [01:41] MaT-dg: I was looking for a filed bug, but you found it first. Thanks. :-D [01:41] Hmm... Looks like a unified diff to me... [01:41] can't find file to patch at input line 9 [01:41] when i start abuntu window ,thereis show an error cups is not running how can i fix it [01:41] BadEagle: ever since the last upgrade (installation engine has no file) [01:41] saiki: sorry, no idea then... [01:41] what does ubuntu use to index files? [01:41] MaT-dg: Have you ever enabled home directory encryption? === Ademan__ is now known as Ademan [01:42] hey room, a li'l help here please: when i run Update Manager, a distribution update (for Brasero) shows up, but it's greyed out and i can't complete the update... what should ‎i do? [01:42] losher, can it be logged? [01:42] keith_: no [01:42] losher, maybe a log will tell me what's going on [01:42] -_- So I just tried to remove ttf-dejavu-core and ttf-dejavu-extra, and it wants to remove my ubuntu-desktop package as well... [01:42] Chris8 what happens when you try to update? [01:42] keith_: Is a fresh install and I don't enabled it (yet) [01:42] is there a failure of some kind? [01:42] evantandersen: look at the filenames in the patch, they need to match up with where you are & where the files to be patched are, if you see what I mean [01:43] MaT-dg: Yeah... what fs are you using? [01:43] Hello, I recently upgraded my ubuntu 8.10 (64-bit) distribution to ubuntu 9.04 (64-bit), and after doing so, my resolution can only go up to 800x600. My laptop has a nVidia 7150 integrated gfx card. When I go to hardware drivers, I get two options the "NVIDIA accelerated graphics driver (version 180)" and "NVIDIA accelerated graphics driver (version 173)". When I click activate it shows that it is downloading, however i [01:43] t will not activate. [01:43] How do I assemble a software raid that worked before jaunty upgrade but now gives "mdadm: metadata format 00.90 unknown, ignored." errors [01:43] keith_: ext4 [01:43] tried the other link, installed latest drivers, but when i restart nothing changed [01:43] MaT-dg: Same... I wonder if that is related [01:43] BBryant: the update shows up with the little box to check, but i can't check the box, and the entire entry is greyed out [01:43] cloudpjff7, you have to remove the nvidia stuff manually and rerun the install [01:43] wholloway: i would try upgrading to jaunty if you can [01:43] BBryant:like it's teasing me :P [01:43] Chris8, sounds like you installed a backport [01:43] i've tried that [01:43] Hey guys I'm experiencing either system instability and/or a bad app or Intrepid bug. I have no idea which.My mouse quits working during OpenArena, Alien Arena, trash can icon don't update, firefox wont start.I'm not sure if my power supply is inadequate with my new system or what the deal is. Do I need to install a fesh Intrepid and install and test each app seperately to determine if its a bad app or if my powersupply is causing it. I al [01:43] i uninstalled everything [01:43] try 'patch -p0' < patchfile and 'patch -p1 < patchfile' [01:43] cloudpjff7, go to nvidia.com, grab their run file [01:44] BBryant: yeah i'm trying to, why isn't the Update Manager handling it? [01:44] Chris8, you can use synaptic to manually override the backport you did earlier and update the package-- if that's what happened [01:44] hi, I'm new to ubuntu trying to setup workspaces. when I right click the workspace icon in the lower right, I set the columns and rows @ 2 but when i try to rotate the desktop cube, i only see 2 workspaces instead of 4. Can someone point me in the right direction? [01:44] losher where is my linux headers/source stuff. Like in the file it says: linux-2.6.28-rcl/drivers/hwmon/it87.c is the path [01:44] wholloway: upgrading parts of older dists tends to break things i hear [01:44] evantandersen_: try "patch -p0' < patchfile" or "patch -p1 < patchfile" [01:44] If you're using a backport then at one point you told the package manager you wanted an older version of the package then it had at the time, Chris8 [01:44] to override that selection you have to go into synaptic and undo it [01:44] kofe: you want 4 workspaces in 1 row [01:45] kofe: Bottom right corner, workspace icon thingy, right click, preferences [01:45] MaT-dg: I think I will try installing again with ext3 and see if that fixes it [01:45] evantandersen: /usr/src/linux I think. Also, source is not there by default, you have to install it by hand [01:45] the source is in a package [01:45] cloudpjff7, with me so far? [01:45] is Opera on any of the ubuntu repositories? [01:45] losher i did [01:45] there's also "apt-get source" [01:45] saiki: ya [01:45] BadEagle: Okay, let me mess around with it, If I can't get it, I'll upgrade. Thankyou [01:45] keith_: I think it is, only found bugs for jaunty alpha and final. It's a minor nuisance for me though as I alway delete files by shift-delete [01:45] BBryant:so i use synaptic and update it myself? or do i hcange settings in Synaptic and let it run? [01:45] saiki: gonna go to the nvidia site, and try it again [01:45] cloudpjff7, AFTER getting the .run, put it in /root [01:45] Im on a new ASUS M3N78 Pro mobo with a 2.2Ghz quad core. My power supply is 380watt.That enough? The manual mentions 500 and 600 watt supplies.Im not sure if thats only if I have a crap load of cards and drives or if the mobo needs it no matter what.Any ideas? [01:46] clearscreen, there's a propietary-apps repo run by Canonical that includes Opera - Opera was also running their own Ubuntu repos at one point [01:46] thanks. the top and bottom of the cube show as blank images. that is normal? [01:46] evantandersen: so how are the filenames written inside the patch file? [01:46] Chris8: it depends on if you want to keep the backport, or remove the backport and update the package [01:46] the choice is up to you [01:46] MaT-dg: I didn't know shift+del would do that... [01:46] MarkJones: ##hardware would be a better channel to ask in [01:46] you can't update a backport [01:46] ok cool [01:46] can you log upgrade manager? [01:46] kofe: yeah, you probably can change them to something else [01:46] thanks [01:46] losher fixed it. It was trying to use an old version of linux kernel that I didn't have the source for. [01:46] BBryant: i'm confused -- i thought backports were for letting programs update themselves... why isn't this working? [01:46] keith_: I'll keep ext4.. ultra fast boot wins over ext3 ^^ [01:46] Hi, I can't see "main, universe, restricted, and multiverse sources " in Go to System > Administration > Software Sources" I did yesterday [01:47] Chris8, that's not at all what backports are for [01:47] evantandersen: good. One down. 350 million to go... [01:47] backports are for installing an older version of a package because for some reason that's the one you want, and telling the package manager not to update the package itself anymore [01:47] MaT-dg: Is that the 64 bit or the ext4? [01:47] can you log upgrade manager? (is this possible?) [01:47] it'll still tell you that there are updates available though [01:47] BBRyant ?HAHAAHAHAH [01:47] which is why it's greyed out [01:47] bbryant: No. Backports are *new* versions of software that were backported from a new release to the one you're using.. [01:48] bbryant: I'm pretty sure backports are later versions which have been "backported" [01:48] !backports | bbryant Chris8 [01:48] bbryant Chris8: If new updated Ubuntu packages are built for an application, then they may go into Ubuntu Backports. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuBackports - See also !packaging [01:48] saiki: then after i put the .run into the root shut down xserver and try the install? [01:48] BBRyant: i didn't get an upgrade for a whack of programs till i allowed backports... [01:48] losher i thought that would fix it.. it didn't. Sorry i'm distracting you from 350 million. :) [01:48] MaT-dg: knowing shift+del is very useful actually... I might just keep ext4. It would be very annoying if there was no way to delete a file directly though. [01:48] keith_: ext4, had hardy in 64bit to but it booted way slower [01:48] hi everybody, i have a quick question: is there a way to run multiple scripts at once using only one script? [01:49] !backports [01:49] If new updated Ubuntu packages are built for an application, then they may go into Ubuntu Backports. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuBackports - See also !packaging [01:49] hahaha [01:49] <`brandon`> Hello, what dose MythBuntu do? [01:49] MaT-dg: Actually, from what I recall, I think boot time improvements were a big focus in Jaunty. [01:49] what are those channelsa? [01:49] <`brandon`> !Mythbuntu | `brandon` [01:49] `brandon`, please see my private message [01:49] mimiloon: that script could call the other ones [01:49] evantandersen: you know what support is like - endless, thankless, soul-draining... So back to the patch, where are we? [01:49] BBryant: thanks. et al! [01:49] hi, the ubuntu software tab is no longer in software sources.. what can I do? [01:49] keith_: keep in mind that you can NOT recover files deleted by shift-del just bij going to some trashfolder and restore them [01:50] losher same error. (BTW I have two computers here, both running IRC) [01:50] MaT-dg: That's kind of the point. But it is easier than rm'ing them [01:50] heh, yea for some reason my brain just switched out the definition of backports with something made up [01:50] evantandersen: wanna paste the top 10 lines of your patchfile to pastebin? [01:50] that's what I get for staying awake for two days [01:50] Hello, I want to add Rythmbox Music player to my auto startup so that my podcast subscriptions will download automatically. How do I do this? [01:50] losher looks like a unifed diff file to me... then it says some other weird stuff before stopping [01:51] anyone know why i see my password instead of my name? [01:51] losher, fixed it, old packages with no new ones that jaunty doesn't see [01:51] !sessions | GamesMedic [01:51] Sorry, I don't know anything about sessions [01:51] !startup | GamesMedic [01:51] GamesMedic: To add programs to start up when you log into your Gnome session go to System>Preferences>Sessions and use the Startup Programs tab. For more information, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AddingProgramToSessionStartup - See !boot for starting non-interactive programs at boot [01:51] could anyone tell me how i can install FireFox 2 on my jaunty system? [01:51] losher http://pastebin.ca/1407996 [01:51] saiki: that's good [01:51] <- Is my name Buttons840? I see my password there, what do you see? [01:52] losher, ye, but I lost alot of my games :@ [01:52] GamesMedic: I think I heard the name was changed from Sessions to Startup Applications in 9.04 [01:52] Buttons840: we get the name [01:52] buttons840: we see Buttons840 [01:52] saiki: no backup, no sympathy.... [01:52] losher i'm still here just logged off my other comp [01:52] odd, why do i see my own password then? [01:52] is that normal? [01:52] losher, those were the ones ailing jaunty lol [01:52] losher, so yea... [01:52] must be your irc client [01:52] keith_: it's ext4 that makes the difference: people who kept ext3 don't see a big improvement [01:52] pigion? [01:52] keith_: in booting [01:53] evantandersen: from the path in your patchfile, you need to be in /usr/src when you issue the command. [01:53] How can i add icons to avant windows navigator? [01:53] It only shows what windows i have opened [01:53] Buttons840: use either X-Chat or IRSSI [01:53] MaT-dg: Interesting, I'll have to research that. So it seems to just be an applet issue then? [01:53] Sylar_: not sure, but try drag and drop entries from the applications menu [01:54] keith_: could also be ext4's fault but I expect it to be fixed soon.. doesn't seem such a huge problem [01:54] danielrmt: do i have to take out the ones already on there? [01:54] evantandersen_: from the path in your patchfile, you need to be in /usr/src when you issue the command. [01:54] Buttons840: x-chat for GUI, irssi for scriptable command-line. (I prefer irssi) [01:54] my problem is I cannot find the application in the file system. Whaere is it? [01:54] losher same error!!!! [01:55] Buttons840: But if you are new to IRC, do x-chat [01:55] anyone? ubuntu software tab missing in software sources [01:55] so anyone had issues with the binary nvidia driver and sometimes window content not being refreshed? or am i the only one. [01:55] MaT-dg: Yeah, I'll be patient. Thanks. [01:55] evantandersen_: pastebin it... [01:55] danielrmt: nope, drag and drop doesn't work on it [01:55] danielrmt: it's the same thing as the bar on the bottom of ubuntu, it just has graphics [01:55] hey guys, ever since i upgraded from 8.4 to 9.1, my rapache application locks up when I try to make any changes... ideas? [01:55] i open firefox with about 14 windows and i have to resize them to get the windows to refresh [01:55] chrome_: can you please help me in doing this because i'm completely lost [01:56] Sylar_: when you right click the dock, what options appear in the menu? i can't help very much with this [01:56] trave: 9.1? [01:56] repnop: not seen anyone else say that since 9.04 came out. Tried a google search? [01:56] hi all. how can I automatically put some iptable commands at startup? because those are needed for some network statistics ... ? [01:56] General, Applets, Launchers, Themes [01:56] losher http://pastebin.ca/1408000 [01:56] er, is it 9.01 ? :] Jaunty Jackalope :] [01:56] trave: 9.04 [01:57] ah, k. gotta get my versions down. [01:57] hello [01:57] does any one know if the latest mythtv for ubuntu support netflix stream and also close captioning [01:57] :D [01:57] losher: haven't really seen anything yet, first time i've ever seen such a thing happen, switched from fc10 hehe [01:57] trave: 9 - 2009 year .04 - april [01:57] clean install [01:57] keith_: I can view and empty my trash from nautilus just fine [01:57] ah, that makes it easy [01:57] trave no 9 stands for the year, (2009), 4 stands for the month released - (April 4 Month) [01:57] keith_: you could temporarely put a shortcut to /home//.local/share/Trash/files in your 'places' in nautilus [01:57] ninja'd [01:57] thats a good method [01:57] freaky_t: create an executable script and make a symbolic link on your runlevel in /etc/rcX.d/ [01:57] piroko: Are you using 64-bit on ext4? [01:57] evantandersen_: so what d'you see if you type 'ls -l linux-source-2.6.27/drivers/hwmon/it87.c' ? [01:57] danielrmt: can you show me a link to a ss of the one you use? [01:58] MaT-dg: I thought about it... I will do that if it becomes an issue. [01:58] keith_: Hmm... 32-bit on ext4 [01:58] Sorry [01:58] has anyone else heard of issues using rapache after upgrading? [01:58] keith_: then rename it to 'trash' and it almost the same thing.. [01:58] Does anyone else see this window on your taskbar that says launching http cache or something.... it been really freezing up my OS [01:58] losher -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 49818 2008-10-09 18:13 linux-source-2.6.27/drivers/hwmon/it87.c [01:58] clean install will fix that [01:58] i uninstalled and reinstalled it through the Add/Remove tool [01:58] Nevermind... I figured it out.. Thanks [01:59] keith_: not the most elegant way.. but it works :) [01:59] Sylar_: Avant is a good dock, I have used it some time ago. You can see about Docky here: http://do.davebsd.com/wiki/index.php?title=Docky [01:59] piroko: I used 32 bit and had no problem. I am not sure if it is ext4 related, but 64 bit seems to be a factory. [01:59] piroko: factor* [01:59] Help ANyone: I've unchecked backport availability for synaptic, rebooted, ran Update Manager, and i'm STILL getting a greyed out update for Brasero that i can't check mark to download... why is this happening and what can i do? [01:59] keith_: Yeah. I hope someone finds a fix [01:59] keith_: I'll look at the code [01:59] MaT-dg: Yeah, though I never access my Trash through nautilus browser, always by clicking on the trash applet. :p [02:00] evantandersen_: looks kosher. Must be something obvious. One more time, but with -p0 ... [02:00] danielrmt: how can i get awm to do the same thing as donky [02:00] could anyone tell me how i can install FireFox 2 on my jaunty system? [02:00] Hey guys I just installed kubuntu-desktop from synaptic in regular 9.04 ubuntu. but when i try to log in with my main user I get an error saying that my session lasted less than 10 seconds... and I can only log in with gnome on my main user. though I can use kde with another user. How can i fix this or see an error log? Thanks. [02:00] danielrmt: i mean docky lol [02:00] Sylphid: First you must say why you want ff2 ;) [02:00] piroko, web app wont work on 3 [02:00] Sylar_: you mean the search? I don't think you can [02:01] how can I play / stream netflix on my ubuntu system running 9.04 [02:01] piroko, required for a training class for work [02:01] danielrmt: no i mean the drag and drop. like on awm it just shows me the windows already opened not icons so that i can open programs [02:02] There should be a settings or properties somewhere [02:02] Sylphid: Does it specifically say FF2? Or is what you are looking at just old? [02:02] Sylphid: what kind of a web app? [02:02] piroko, its either ff2 in linux or a virtual machine with windows.... [02:02] Help ANyone: I've unchecked backport availability for synaptic, rebooted, ran Update Manager, and i'm STILL getting a greyed out update for Brasero that i can't check mark to download... why is this happening and what can i do?

Now, i have my C file, how do i compile it and replace my current version with this new version? or is that even nesseacary? [02:03] phantom---: apt-get install ubuntu-desktop? [02:03] danielrmt: theres none. is docky avaliable threw synaptic. cause i didn't see it there i don't believe [02:03] Hey guys I just installed kubuntu-desktop from synaptic in regular 9.04 ubuntu. but when i try to log in with my main user I get an error saying that my session lasted less than 10 seconds... and I can only log in with gnome on my main user. though I can use kde with another user. How can i fix this or see an error log? Thanks. [02:03] Chris8: I've just had same problem I upgraded it in synaptic no problems [02:03] Sylar_: found it: http://wiki.awn-project.org/FAQ#How_do_I_add_launchers_to_the_bar.3F [02:04] Sylar_: docky is only available for jaunty, the package is gnome-do (because Docky is only a theme for gnome do) [02:04] Sylphid: You can download the .tar.gz from here: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html [02:04] Sylphid: You can run it directly with this archive: http://www.mozilla.com/products/download.html?product=firefox-2.0.0.20&os=linux&lang=en-US [02:04] a word editor in kubuntu? [02:04] O_O [02:04] * piroko high-fives keith! [02:04] :fitzy: cool thanks... is there an autoupgrade in Synaptic or you hafta hand pick packs? And does the annoying grey update go awayt? :P [02:04] piroko: Tag team work. lol [02:04] danielrmt: Thanks for that link daniel and yes i'm using jaunty, i just installed ubuntu for the first time yesterday. [02:05] danielrmt: i switched from having opensuse 11 for a year now [02:05] danielrmt: it was kde though [02:05] Sylar_: hope you enjoy ubuntu [02:05] evantandersen_: uh, weren't there some instructions with the patch? Yes, you'll need to compile, either full kernel or a specific module, depending on what the patch is for. You need to look at the docs about compiling the kernel.... [02:05] danielrmt: so far yes, except that the os locked or frooze for some reason twice and it required a hard restart [02:05] Chris8: I did a quick search for it and marked it for upgrade [02:06] Sylar_: you have to run this "awn manager" app to setup avant [02:06] danielrmt: but i think it was ktorrents fault cause it happened while removing a torrent both times. [02:06] danielrmt: yeah it's on the panel itself [02:06] Hey guys I just installed kubuntu-desktop from synaptic in regular 9.04 ubuntu. but when i try to log in with my main user I get an error saying that my session lasted less than 10 seconds... and I can only log in with gnome on my main user. though I can use kde with another user. How can i fix this or see an error log? Thanks. [02:06] :fitzy there is an auto-upgrade in Synaptic... guess i'll be running that more often *sigh chucle sigh* [02:06] ok [02:06] :fitzy thanks~~!!` [02:07] Chris8: np [02:07] keith_: Are you an experienced linux user? [02:07] ubuntu software tab missing in software sources... has anyone seen this before? [02:07] piroko: I have been using it for a few years, though I am always amazed at the new things I learn. :p [02:07] keith_: Have you done any work with strace/gdb? [02:08] danielrmt: thanks daniel its working now. [02:08] nope [02:08] piroko: I have used gdb/ddd [02:08] can anyone pm me why ubuntu is better then others ? i picking one distro but i dont know what to pick [02:08] Sylar_: good [02:08] piroko: I've used them both. What are you trying to do? === evantandersen_ is now known as evantandersen [02:09] I followed http://www.kremalicious.com/2008/06/ubuntu-as-mac-file-server-and-time-machine-volume/#netatalk1 and set up avahi on a linux machine. How can I use another linux machine to connect via avahi? [02:09] losher: I was going to try to get keith_ to see if he could see anything unusual with nautilus that would cause it not to show stuff in the trash folder [02:09] losher: Since I cannot produce the problem (32-bit here) [02:10] DamsIndonesia: for beginners I recommend Ubuntu 8.04.2 LTS [02:10] danielrmt: with respect, I think everyone here is likely to like Ubuntu. sort of like asking Canadians if Canada is the best country (it is :) ). [02:10] piroko: Sorry, way out of my league... [02:10] DamsIndonesia: because of an extremely helpful community, easy to approach devs, ease of use, a fun community, devs fight hard to manage every bug ever thrown at them instead of dismissing old, etc. [02:10] bah [02:10] wow nice community and replays :) [02:10] PhotoJim: but not that mac fanboy [02:10] losher its a it8720 chipset patch, the mobos only started using it in Febuary. Its a new thing. its a file that sensors uses to check for compatible sensors. [02:10] how can I run a script or command when I connect to the internet? [02:11] What is the command to rename a folder? [02:11] elijah: mv [02:11] azlon: hm? [02:11] DamsIndonesia: it's very easy to install, for one thing, the hard drive partitioner and GRUB are both very well implemented [02:11] azlon: what are you trying to do? [02:11] guys i'm trying to upgrade from 8.04 to 8.10 and i'm h aving an interesting problem -- whenever i try to open the select sources menu item it does the spinner/wait icon and then eventually fails to launch, no error [02:11] Hey guys I just installed kubuntu-desktop from synaptic in regular 9.04 ubuntu. but when i try to log in with my main user I get an error saying that my session lasted less than 10 seconds... and I can only log in with gnome on my main user. though I can use kde with another user. How can i fix this or see an error log? Thanks. [02:12] roadranger: thanks now I remember [02:12] BAY BAY [02:12] losher: Hehe. No problem. Thanks for offering :) [02:12] ralmar: you need to pastebin .xsession-errors [02:12] piroko: Oh, well... what would be involved? :-p [02:12] hmm why does vlc now open with 2 windows in 9.04? i like it with the video and controls in one window [02:12] I used testdisk to recover a partition on a logical partition, I tell it to "write" the partition table, correct? [02:12] ralmar: looks like there's something wrong in your user hidden config files for kde apps [02:13] mteknology, yeah thats the file i was looking for but cant find it... [02:13] ralmar: are you showing hidden files? [02:13] piroko: Would I have to hook into the running nautilus process? [02:13] ctrl+h [02:13] one of my favourite bug fixes in 9.04, is that the alpha colour pallet no longer goes fubar when restoring from suspend :] [02:13] mtecknology, where is it? [02:13] DamsIndonesia: I've tried a lot of distros. Ubuntu is the easiest IMO, though other candidates are Suse and Mint. One big advantage is that any problems you are likely to have (and 8.04.2 is very stable, so hopefully you won't see many problems) have almost always been seen (and solved) by someone already if you google it [02:13] got leave now. bye [02:14] keith_: Using a window manager other than gnome, and firing up nautilus under gdb, setting a breakpoint at the function that reads file listings, and stepping through when it triggers :-/ [02:14] MTecknology I mean in what directory is that error file supposed to be? [02:14] ralmar: just sitting in your home directory [02:14] Hi, I'm having a problem upgrading from 8.04 to 8.10 -- when I try to run Administration->Software Sources, I get a spinner for awhile and then it fails to launch. What gives? [02:14] ok [02:14] MTecknology: I want to run tor and pidgin when I connect to the internet, but I am on a netbook so I don't want to use resources unless I need to [02:14] keith_: Sounds fun eh? [02:15] hola [02:15] evantandersen_: yes, I googled it. Safest is to assume you need to build a whole kernel. It's not hard, but there are lots of steps, so best to google a howto [02:15] ^^ this is for a user I just created, and added to the 'admin' group [02:15] azlon: so don't run them unless you connect to the internet [02:16] any ideas for me? [02:16] piroko, a little. Do you know what I might be looking for? [02:16] azlon: You can use bum to make tor not start with the system [02:16] I've got a new Dell XPS1330, fresh install of 9.04 and my wireless adapter isn't showing up.... it' [02:16] carrot: Try running sudo /usr/bin/software-properties-gtk from the terminal and see if any messages pop up [02:16] !patience > carrot [02:16] carrot, please see my private message [02:17] keith_: That's what I'm trying to find out now :) [02:17] MTecknology: right, but is there a way to have them automatically start once I connect to a wireless network (or any internet source) [02:17] MTecknology here is the pastebin of the xsession error file (partial) http://pastebin.com/d5da13e96 thanks for the help [02:17] piroko: Isn't there a way to debug a process while it is running? or would that not work in nautilus' case? [02:18] sl0wiam: my Dell laptop has a switch on the side of the computer that turns the wireless on/off, not sure if it's the same with desktops but first thing first is to check to make sure that it's set to ON, if it exists [02:18] Whats better gDesklets or Screenlets. =o [02:18] I followed this tutorial: https://help.ubuntu.com/8.10/internet/C/networking-shares.html, and I've shared the folder on Ubuntu, but I don't know how to access it on Windows. Can anyone help? [02:18] losher okay i'll do that. Just not tonight. Thanks for all the help. [02:18] piroko: that runs fine without problems, it complains about python's gui api not being stable yet but nothing else [02:19] waking up from sleep doesnt preserve my session. i go back to gdm. how do I file a bug using apport? [02:19] azlon: you could create a script to check if a ping to google works and if not stop execution. but you'd have to run the script from cron and it would keep running and also need to test if things are already running... [02:19] jz: It's definitely on, I've had this issue since the Beta version of Ubuntu, I monkey'd around with it on Beta 2 until it worked but really hoped the final release had ironed out whatever bug I had [02:19] I followed this tutorial: https://help.ubuntu.com/8.10/internet/C/networking-shares.html, and I've shared the folder on Ubuntu, but I don't know how to access it on Windows. Can anyone help? [02:19] are compiz prefs preserved 8.10->9.04? [02:20] sl0wiam: are you using the proprietary drivers [02:20] bthomson_ my compiz prefs were preserved from 8.10 to 9.04 [02:20] I followed this tutorial: https://help.ubuntu.com/8.10/internet/C/networking-shares.html, and I've shared the folder on Ubuntu, but I don't know how to access it on Windows. Can anyone help? [02:20] MTecknology: hrmm... I'm still a newb... I was hoping there was an easier way. thanks anyway! [02:21] MTecknology: Whats up? [02:21] jz: Yes, Broadcom STA Wireless drivers, they are enabled and it says they are in use but when I run ifconfig only my wired connection and lo show up [02:21] i just downloaded a game with a .run installer, how can i run it? [02:21] I followed this tutorial: https://help.ubuntu.com/8.10/internet/C/networking-shares.html, and I've shared the folder on Ubuntu, but I don't know how to access it on Windows. Can anyone help? [02:21] jz: wired is showing up as eth0 [02:21] sl0wiam: that's the extent of my expertise, you might want to look up the specific wireless card's name in a google search [02:21] coleys: hi [02:22] the new netbook version of ubuntu.. is that good for any laptop.. or should i just run the desktop version? [02:22] amseidler: I can help you by telling you we heard you the first time [02:22] thanks z0x1c [02:22] MTecknology: Any problems? [02:22] MTecknology, any idea how to fix it? [02:22] coleys: hu? [02:22] ralmar: I'm looking [02:22] keith_: Yes, you can. In that case you would do gdb /usr/bin/nautilus [02:22] I followed this tutorial: https://help.ubuntu.com/8.10/internet/C/networking-shares.html, and I've shared the folder on Ubuntu, but I don't know how to access it on Windows. Can anyone help? [02:22] keith_: I totally forgot about that [02:22] MTecknology thanks [02:22] IAmWill: i think the netbook version is specifically for low powered laptops which you don't intend to use for anything but web browsing [02:22] MTecknology: Im not sure what your problem is "=p [02:22] jz, thanks [02:23] I followed this tutorial: https://help.ubuntu.com/8.10/internet/C/networking-shares.html, and I've shared the folder on Ubuntu, but I don't know how to access it on Windows. Can anyone help? [02:23] coleys: I never asked anything [02:23] amseidler, shut up [02:23] amseidler - I get "Page not found" :( [02:23] hi everybody, can any please help me in running multiple scripts with just one script; that is run script1 and script1 will start the script2 in one terminal and script3 in another [02:23] MTecknology: Oh, im just crazy =/ [02:23] !patience > amseidler [02:23] amseidler, please see my private message [02:23] !coc > jz [02:23] jz, please see my private message [02:23] lol [02:23] bthomson_, np. I will add that both my desktop and my laptop retained all of my compiz prefs (despite the new features/defaults) [02:24] that's the third code of conduct warning i've received today [02:24] can anyone help me with networking? [02:24] mimiloon, use ";" between scripts? Or, are you wanting to call the next if the preceeding succeeds? [02:24] piroko: If it says "No debugging symbols found" does that mean I need the dbg package for nautilus? [02:24] gumby what you need [02:24] keith_: Yep [02:24] gumby: what do you need? [02:24] I am using VirtualBox. How can I share files on my host, ubuntu, so I can access them on my guest, Windows XP? [02:25] keith_: My email is obrien654j@gmail.com Email me if you find anything potentially interesting, and I will email you with anything I find. [02:25] !patience | amseidler [02:25] amseidler: The people here are volunteers, your attitude should reflect that. Answers are not always available. See http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines [02:25] Aw hell. That was supposed to be pm :P [02:25] Hey amseidler [02:25] piroko: Nice. I was just about to suggest e-mail as I need to get going soon. [02:25] amseidler: there is a folder you can enable for sharing perhaps people in #virtualbox would be able to help more. [02:25] virmin: Yes? [02:25] histo: I've been on with them all day, I got no where [02:25] virmin: i want script2 and script3 to start right away in two separate terminals [02:26] piroko: you helped me fix my problem -- for some reason the tools won't launch via gnome-panel but they work just fine launching from the terminal -- thanks! [02:26] On your XP VM's, share the folders, and in on VMware, allow networking [02:26] piroko: I killed my nautilus session with gdb, lol. (Won't respond now as I expected to happen) [02:26] amseidler: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VirtualBox/SharedFolders [02:26] keith_: Type "continue" from gdb [02:26] amseidler: I don't have vbox infront of me right now but there should be a little folder icon down by the bottom right of the window. Then you can mount the folder in windows. [02:26] keith_: Or "c" [02:26] amseidler: or follow the directions from MTecknology [02:26] keith_: Unless you closed it :/ [02:26] piroko: I typed run without thinking and it wants to know if I want it to run from the beginning... would that restart nautilus? lol [02:26] histo: There is a folder [02:26] keith_: Yes it would. Haha [02:27] mimiloon - if there is no dependancy upon script1 for script2 to run - "script1; script2" [02:27] amseidler: see MTecknology link [02:27] histo: I am [02:27] In it right now [02:27] piroko: This should be interesting, I have never tried debugging something in Ubuntu before.

[02:29] carrot: You are welcome [02:29] keith_: No, it is a binary package with debugging symbols in it [02:29] keith_: You don't have to do this you know. Only if you want to :) [02:29] joelh: try acpi -t in a terminal [02:29] /etc/xdg/autostart/update-notifier-kde.desktop: ERROR: cannot open `/etc/xdg/autostart/update-notifier-kde.desktop' (No such file or directory) [02:29] MTecknology the output is"/etc/xdg/autostart/update-notifier-kde.desktop: ASCII text" [02:29] piroko: Naturally. :-D [02:29] kk [02:30] keith_: Nautilus does a lot of crap.

[02:30] virmin: i have 8 scripts that need to be running at the same time and i don't want to use ";" every time in want to run the 8 scripts [02:31] MTecknology: whats that?

[02:31] keith_: apt-get source [02:31] joelh: used to be installed by default. [02:31] dolo: that channel can help you if you want to know intricacies of updates [02:31] virmin: what? [02:31] keith_: It will unpack and patch the source into your current directory [02:31] MTecknology the output is"-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 263 2009-04-17 03:48 /etc/xdg/autostart/update-notifier-kde.desktop" Thanks [02:31] currently 45 degrees c [02:32] piroko: Nice. Hey, what is the difference between main server and server for the US? [02:32] keith_: You mean the mirrors or what? [02:32] piroko: When looking at the sources === caplink811-log is now known as caplink811_log [02:33] piroko: I guess it is a mirror, in which case there wouldn't be a difference, right? [02:33] ralmar: how about ls -l ~/.dbus/session-bus [02:33] Miloon - run them all through one script, e.g. [02:33] #!/bin/bash [02:33] ... [02:33] keith_: Oh... Yeah. I wasn't following [02:33] piroko: Repo sources that is. Hope I wasn't being confusing. :D [02:33] keith_: You got it. [02:34] MTecknology think we found the problem output is "ls: cannot access /home/uman/.dbus/session-bus: Permission denied" [02:34] My system has shut down twice since loading ubuntu [02:34] I'm having trouble connecting to a remote machine via VNC. Apparently its an issue with compiz and the workaround is to turn compiz off. My question is how can that be done remotely prior to connecting via vnc? [02:34] Miloon - apols, write a script to call all of your scripts in succesion, [02:34] piroko: Gotta run. I shall let you know if I find anything.

Left it on by accident :) [02:39] how do i install the new wine version? [02:39] MTecknology: Going on to second step [02:39] MTecknology, yes... it took a long time to show me that output though... [02:40] chris81: I haven't tried any yet, but I listen to a good review from the linux action show. Cannot remember any of them [02:40] ralmar: just sudo rm -r the thing. It's not usually important and will be recreated [02:40] ralmar: You do not need to type out his whole name - just type in mt and press tab - the rest will be auto filled out [02:40] chris81: best I can do :( [02:40] When I open a program through Wine, like Steam or uTorrent I get this window called wine system tray, Why does this happen and how do I fix it. everything went to the notification area before my last restart.

I was able to log in with KDE (btw, I didnt touch that .gvfs folder, which was empty btw) [02:45] Is there a way to change any libnotify options? Like themes and such? [02:45] g4lv4tr0n: it was probably mounting as root. I forget the option, but you can mount it so users can access it.

[02:59] ...confirm dialog on the second monitor - which for the user looks like afreeze of the desktop, as one can not see on the turned off tv. [03:00] XtReMePoIsOn: I think you would need to create a new home dir if you moved it. [03:00] i even moved the said dialog box on 1st monitor, confirmed, and was expecting that it'll remember, but - no luck [03:00] janauss: idk, but if you don't get an answer in here after a while, #ubuntu-server might be able to better help you [03:00] MTecknology: Done [03:00] jdu I don't remember how it is partitioned [03:00] vilemaxim: ok ill try that but im sure that its something more ae :/ [03:00] What do I do next? [03:00] Brandon, You can install the studio packages without removing anything. [03:00] amseidler: if you followed what I said, you're done [03:01] MTecknology: Ok, how do I access it now? [03:01] radical: don't i need a blank CD to do that? [03:01] MTecknology: In computer, when I click on it, it tells me that it's unaccessable [03:01] XtReMePoIsOn: could be, but if you are getting a different result after moving the home dir, we don't know how far we can go with a clean user [03:01] amseidler: after you connected to it, a window should have popped up [03:01] No, you can do from snyaptic or whatever it's called. [03:01] amseidler: did it connect or throw an error? [03:01] Elite: just install the gnome desktop or xfce if you want to go light. [03:01] Elite: one way is to use dd then. So you can do: dd if=/dev/sda1 of=/path/harddisk.img bs=2k [03:02] MTecknology: Threw an error, getting now [03:02] Elite: you could also pipe that through tar to compress it if you wanted. [03:02] yeah but i will half to download them in parts right? [03:02] Elite: then later you could restore the image. [03:02] amseidler: what did you use for your network path? [03:02] 'refers to location that's unavailable' [03:02] z: [03:02] invalid PBLK length [03:02] MTecknology: z: [03:02] is what it says [03:02] amseidler: and?? [03:02] dtchen: i fixed the problem by setting the windowmanager variables in gconf to "xmonad" instead of "/usr/bin/xmonad" and adding a /home/raylu/.local/share/applications/xmonad.desktop [03:03] just after the boot screen starts [03:03] amseidler: what did you use for your network path? [03:03] radical: yeah but i will half to download them in parts right? [03:03] Hi can someone help me diagnose a printing problem. Basically I am having trouble setting up ptinting through a M$ print queue server. I can print using some applications such as Open office and KDE's okular however I cannot print from ubuntu's default pdf reader or from firefox.

[03:04] any known problems with Intel Corporation 82830 CGC video card?

I cannot understand what would have caused this as all i have done out of the ordinary is install a new theme and then shutdown for the night, booted up today and got this issue...

[03:18] raylu: It's an mmorpg I found for linux, the file is a .bin and despite trying to follow this guide http://www.linuxforums.org/forum/linux-tutorials-howtos-reference-material/64958-how-install-software-linux.html#post344062 it didn't work [03:18] It seems to look at this ip and never gets anywhere... 91.189.88.140 [03:18] XtReMePoIsOn: hmmm... drop down to the command line again. sudo aptitude install gnome-desktop-environment [03:18] raylu: ubuntu [03:18] the video on my laptop is completely broken after the update to jaunty, can anyone help please? [03:18] Sylar_: sudo aptitude install gstreamer0.10-ffmpeg [03:18] rantic type this into the trem (gksu /usr/sbin/synaptic) [03:18] XtReMePoIsOn: seems like your missing stuff [03:19] vilemaxim: as much as I love aptitude, support is better given suggesting apt-get [03:19] MTecknology, I don't need to use YUM, the site I am on kinda threw it in the mix and didn't separate the difference so I was just checking in [03:19] trey_: ok? [03:19] hello i was wondering if any one could help get more than 2 work spaces [03:19] is it better to try and install a gui server or to do a complete reinstall? [03:19] vilemaxim: people tend to get less confused :P [03:19] Elite: "gui server?" [03:19] how can I figure out what version of ubuntu I am running [03:19] raylu: a server doesn't usually have a gui [03:19] !version | evalsaidem [03:19] hello i was wondering if any one could help get more than 2 work spaces(cube affect) [03:19] evalsaidem: To find out what version of Ubuntu you have, type « lsb_release -a » in a !shell - To know the available version of a package, « apt-cache policy » [03:20] mstone: Bottom right corner, workspace icon thingy, right click, preferences [03:20] Elite, just add the desktop package...gnome-desktop I think. [03:20] evalsaideum System> About [03:20] Elite: a server doesn't usually have a gui [03:20] raylu: sorry [03:20] heh [03:20] hey all is there there anyone here who can help me with xubuntu [03:20] vilemaxim: am i doing anything after this install? [03:20] ubottu: thanks ... looks like jaunty [03:20] Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) [03:20] anzo, I've used it in the past. [03:20] evalsaidem: more /etc/lsb-release in a CLI [03:20] mtecknology>> installing a gui in a sever edition is easy. I am running server and I have gui and totally customized [03:20] MTecknology: I haven't noticed that problem. I'll try considering that. [03:20] tell me what happened [03:20] anzo: #xubuntu [03:20] vilemaxim: or just a reboot [03:20] MTecknology: why apt-get over aptitude? [03:20] I wonder if there is something wrong with my sources.list file.... [03:21] apt-get is a easier command [03:21] acceses the rep easier [03:21] hey guys--im using ubuntu 9.04. my sound worked fine after installation. the only problem im having, is that i can only have 1 program that uses sound open at a time. how do i fix this? example: if i watch a youtube video, then pause the video, and play a song in amarok, amarok wont play it'll say it cant access the nvidia sound driver. so i have to close firefox, then do it [03:21] its really annoying [03:21] Magician: easier than aptitude? [03:21] raylu: sometimes users get confused when they see apt-get in tutorials, but are told to use aptitude [03:21] XtReMePoIsOn: I missed something "or just reboot" [03:21] radical, how can I make it install from the cd? [03:21] is there a way to turn off a remote computer if you know it IP address? [03:21] yes easier and more efficent [03:21] I prefer aptitude [03:21] lol [03:21] more robust [03:21] raylu: it's easier to explain over the internet that you should type a command then follow a gui [03:21] I thought aptitude had better dependency resolution [03:21] MTecknology: and sometimes users are confused when they see aptitude but are told to use apt-get... [03:21] rantic tell me what happened [03:21] Elite, add your cd to your sources list and then install. [03:21] veovis: ... right. i said apt-get and aptitude... both are clis [03:22] raylu: most guides use apt-get though [03:22] the wat [03:22] Magician: why is that? [03:22] MTecknology: but i feel aptitude is more user-friendly [03:22] MTecknology: but you loose you cool aptitude tracking of packages install [03:22] RedSocrates: afaik, aptitude removes packages if they're no longer needed [03:22] piroko how do i get cube affect [03:22] raylu: it still doesn't play my mp3s [03:22] RedSocrates: what vilemaxim said. [03:22] Right [03:22] does anyone have jaunty server installed [03:22] One of the reasons I like aptitude [03:22] the command was set to use with ubuntu [03:22] raylu: vilemaxim: I agree, I was just focusing on user confusion :P [03:23] the newer versions [03:23] Sylar_: hrm. ok, we'll install the rest of ubuntu-restricted-extras, then. sudo aptitude install ubuntu-restricted-extras [03:23] rantic tell me what happened [03:23] like apt vs yum :P [03:23] Let's say I want to try KDE4 on Ubuntu what do I install kde-desktop? - or kde4-desktop? [03:23] it is way the code is written [03:23] Isn't there a way to show the list of those internet connectors, like eth0? [03:23] piroko how do i get cube affect [03:23] Thurin1: 8.10 or 9.04? [03:23] Magician: i don't think you have a clue as to what you're talking about [03:23] MTecknology: 9.04 [03:23] ok [03:23] ahoy gurus, newbie here when it comes to shell and shell-scripts, can i pipe the output of the "pidof" command to a renice command. halp [03:23] MTecknology: I agree that should be the focus in a room like this [03:23] Magician: both are frontends to apt and are for managing debs [03:23] radical shere are the sources? [03:23] I run 9.04 server with gnome desktop and host 18 websites but i don know what i am talking about [03:23] vilemaxim: kubuntu-desktop [03:24] how can I run metacity --replace on a remote machine via ssh [03:24] Magician: obviously not. you run a server with gnome :P [03:24] quick question, how do i open menu.lst so i can edit it and save? [03:24] MTecknology: ? [03:24] MTecknology: Do I do the same thing as well? - kubuntu-desktop? [03:24] I believe they are in /etc/sources or something like that. Can someone else confirm that? it might be /etc/sources/source or something like that. [03:24] Thurin1: that was for you [03:24] just to give me a desktop enviroment for personal use to [03:24] And I remove it the same way? or .. piece by piece [03:24] radical: /etc/apt/sources.list [03:24] I'm not on an ubuntu box, so I can't be certain. [03:24] vilemaxim: sorry [03:24] XtReMePoIsOn: what happened? [03:24] piroko how do i get cube affect [03:24] whats the line to edit menu.lst and to have it save? [03:24] Elite, check out raylu .

[03:27] How can I search my entire hard drive for a file? I tried searching as root, but the search completed in about 2 seconds, which leads me to believe it didn't search everything?

I'd like to emulate the osx right click using the trackpad [03:27] Magician: also, i don't notice replys without my name in them [03:27] not always depending on how you set it up [03:27] XtReMePoIsOn: logout first [03:27] MTeck if there a bs= {all} func === Andre_Gondim is now known as Andre_Gondim-afk [03:27] trey__, you need to understand though that this channel is for suppotr and people needing help I dont think an off the wall comment every now and again hurts much but please dont spam the channel consistently [03:28] Buttons840: locate filename === bododo is now known as sabrina [03:28] Buttons840: from the commandline [03:28] vilemaxim: just in the command? cause i cant login/logout of the gnome as theres no buttons :/ [03:28] anyone, please? :) [03:28] sabrina: hi what would you like help with? [03:28] its called freedome of speech [03:29] what i was doing [03:29] IRC is NOT a democracy [03:29] oh and i can hack your bot [03:29] dosen´t matter we are here to help people not argue [03:29] trey__ IRC does not recognize the freedom of speech [03:29] and crash thecen [03:29] XtReMePoIsOn: I think I got confused where you were. cotrol + alt + backspace [03:29] I have a remote server but I don't know wich distribution it is running. All I know is that it use KDE 3.5. Is their any way to check which distribution is installed? [03:29] sebsebseb: I'd like to right click with an ibook G4's trackpad with ctrl+tap [03:29] ah too late [03:29] the cen [03:29] can anyone ping us.archive.ubuntu.com..... [03:29] XtReMePoIsOn: in the gui [03:29] sabrina: with Ubuntu installed on it? [03:29] g4lv4tr0n: just do something like bs=1024 [03:29] trey__, also there is respect for what others want, if you dont respect others wishes then, well, that says something about your personality in general and how other people preceive you [03:29] sebsebseb: yes [03:29] but i love ubuntu so i wont [03:29] XtReMePoIsOn: that will force X to reload [03:30] evalsaidem: run "host us.archive.ubuntu.com" and you'll realize there are multiple servers [03:30] okay people, stop feeding the troll [03:30] MTecknology: is there a bs={all} func ??? [03:30] XtReMePoIsOn: wait to move home [03:30] I have netbook remix installed on my aser aspire one, and after a restart all i have is the background image. [03:30] now, i use three fingers, but it works so so [03:30] g4lv4tr0n: you don't want that [03:30] vilemaxim: ok... im getting ahead of where im at sorry, im still 50% on the aptitude install [03:30] i want to zero whole drive [03:30] radical: then sudo aptitude install ubuntu-desktop? [03:30] XtReMePoIsOn: k [03:30] vilemaxim: ok i will :) [03:30] including mbr and partition table [03:30] vilemaxim, thanks, how can i do a search from a UI? [03:30] g4lv4tr0n: if you want that, then add count=xx where xx is the bytes on the drive divided by your byte size [03:30] raylu: I do that and I get 91.189.88.40 [03:31] but when I run apt-get install it just hangs.... [03:31] evalsaidem: er... you should get a few others... [03:31] g4lv4tr0n, MTecknology no need for length=. bs=1M might help performance, however. [03:31] evalsaidem: host just does a dns resolution. i was just pointing out that there are multiple servers so telling us to ping one doesn't do much [03:31] oh [03:31] g4lv4tr0n: the MBR is the first sector on the drive. it contains the partition table, which will get zeroed as well [03:31] how can I set my dns servers? [03:31] maybe they are failing me... [03:32] or I don't have any set up... [03:32] cool :) [03:32] whats the offtopic channel address [03:32] Buttons840: errr... Places -> search change home to filesystem.... maybe [03:32] vilemaxim, I ran the command "sudo locate b.blend" and it completed in under 2 seconds? I'm guessing it didn't search the entire hard drive then? [03:32] evalsaidem: you certainly have one set up. you only see one ip when using "host us.archive.ubuntu.com"? [03:32] onnect [03:32] Buttons840: it uses a database [03:32] raylu [03:32] g4lv4tr0n: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dd_(Unix) [03:32] raylu: right 91.189.88.40 [03:32] can any one help me get the cube affect [03:33] vilemaxim, it didn't return anything, so that means b.blend is not on my filesystem? [03:33] evalsaidem: strange. consider changing your server to http://mirror.anl.gov/ubuntu/. it's a server in the US; you can make the change in /etc/apt/sources.list [03:33] !compiz | mstone [03:33] privit chat with the ubottu bot and type hi [03:33] mstone: Compiz (compositing window manager), for a howto see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompositeManager and more help #compiz-fusion [03:33] mstone, do you have compiz enabled, and have you downloaded the compiz effects manager from the repo?

Welcome to ubottu [03:33] hii [03:33] hi to you [03:33] how can i add myself to access a cups server to a different machine for me to administer the said cups server? [03:33] so i ran the update manager, it listed a bunch of updates, i clicked install and absolutely nothing happened (9.04) [03:34] woohooo! i found the solution on the ubuntu forums... [03:34] Buttons840: not 100% sure, but it doesn't look good. try "find"... I would have to type man find to get the right options. [03:34] the button went down and then it went up [03:34] this has happened on two 9.04 computers [03:34] now i have a question regarding the migration assistant that's an option when you install... how come i don't see those users show up after restarting??? [03:34] im able to access the web interface of the printer via http://:631 but i can't access the administration page [03:34] raylu: after changing thatdo I have run anything so ubuntu know to load the file over again?

I also did a apt-get update and apt-get upgrade to see if that would help and still nothing [03:36] Elite, Yes. [03:36] How do I format an SD memory card on Ubuntu? [03:37] mr we dont talk about that type of stuff [03:37] how do i mount this piece of shit zune to the holy grail known as Ubuntu [03:37] baybuntu: It's not mounting at all?

I'm on 9.04 [03:45] okay, what are some ways to debug why a Apache/PHP web server is spiking up and down of 90% cpu io wait time? [03:46] srayahu you there [03:46] aperson: can you remove it?

I've always manually created a /home partition. ;) [03:46] cratel, yes, try several times [03:46] vilemaxim: and vice verser on that one [03:47] what command lists drives in order? sda1 , sda2 etc.. ? [03:47] vilemaxim, I'll try [03:47] none of you poor bastards own a zune? [03:47] Phil_26: you might try looking for it somewhere where it might not be in the path, like /usr/sbin or something... [03:47] anyone know how to get the microphone to work on the eee pc? [03:47] cratel: you might try fucking your mum [03:47] zunes dont work with ubuntu [03:47] yet [03:48] f microsoft and their proprietary bs [03:48] XtReMePoIsOn: logout of the gui and log in on the terminal. use mv /home/glenn /home/glenn-fresh; mv /home/backup /home/glenn [03:48] Rilt: er... why'd you remove the manpages? [03:48] wine does not work either right [03:48] MHz128: fdisk -l [03:48] vilemaxim, http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/161092/ [03:48] windows vista shud be called me 2.0 [03:48] cratel, I have looked at the sources.list and here what in : "deb ftp://mir1.ovh.net/debian/ etch main" "deb-src ftp://mir1.ovh.net/debian/ etch main" "deb http://security.debian.org/ etch/updates main" "deb-src http://security.debian.org/ etch/updates main" [03:49] cratel, would this automatically mean that I'm running debian? [03:49] i wonder what does bill have on his computer [03:49] hey all--i've got a sound problem (ubuntu 9.04). if i have a program taht uses sound open (even if the sound is not playing), i CANNOT play sound through ANOTHER program. ex: if i have a youtube video on, i pause it, then i go to play a song in amarok, it errors out saying the device is in use [03:49] probly ubuntu [03:49] hey all--i've got a sound problem (ubuntu 9.04). if i have a program taht uses sound open (even if the sound is not playing), i CANNOT play sound through ANOTHER program. ex: if i have a youtube video on, i pause it, then i go to play a song in amarok, it errors out saying the device is in use. how can i fix this so i can play as many things at once as i like? [03:50] aperson: errr... that is a hard problem to solve [03:50] Phil_26: It seems likely but I am not sure you can conclude that for sure. I think there are many minor distros that use the debian repositories. [03:50] question: wlan0 is default wireless, yeah? [03:50] ok [03:50] Can I just copy the whole /etc/openvpn to another machine to transfer my openvpn server settings and keys?? [03:50] Phil_26, probably yes. Might be a small distro that still uses the main repos, though. [03:50] srayahu did you get it working [03:51] Why is BitchX missing from the universe repository now? [03:51] aperson: I tell you in general how I solved this, but I cannot walk you through it. It will drive me nuts. [03:51] It seems like only irssi is around, which is not quite as good [03:51] vilemaxim, anything is better than nothing :) [03:51] hi what is a good codec pack for ubuntu?? the current gstreamer is kinda sucky and video play is not as smooth as in windows with CCCP..any recommendations? [03:51] Phil_26: Try running "cat /etc/lsb-release" [03:52] raylu: Got it working by installing man-db [03:52] Is it normal for "sudo updatedb" to complete in under a second? [03:52] Buttons840: If nothing changed manually in recent times [03:52] Hi all - I need help with a Virtualbox situation - I used DriveImage XML to clone a fresh Windows install and put the clone on an external hard drive; however, in Virtualbox, I have no way to get to that external hard drive (because I believe Guest Additions has to be installed). [03:53] aperson: in /var/lib/dpkg/info/ is all the pre and post removal scripts. More and likely it is one of them that is messing up. [03:53] Buttons840, sure. are you doing that in "/"? [03:53] lws, I'm not sure, but I think it's been a few years since the last bitchx update? [03:53] genii, I ask because the file b.blend must be on my hard drive for blender to work (and blender does work). I can't find it though. [03:53] by [03:54] THANKS FO THE NO HELP ASS HOLS [03:54] How do I use gparted to format an sd memory card? [03:54] aperson: when I've have this problem in the past, I would modify those scripts with an echo "here" statement to find out how far they got before it stopped working [03:54] start it up [03:54] terrestre, I ran the command "sudo updatedb". Is that at location "/"? [03:54] let it load [03:54] Done [03:55] you shold see a partion [03:55] * D3f0 is away: Ausente por el momento [03:55] It's not listed, but the memory card is mounted on my computer. [03:55] on the right side [03:55] hey all--i've got a sound problem (ubuntu 9.04). if i have a program taht uses sound open (even if the sound is not playing), i CANNOT play sound through ANOTHER program. ex: if i have a youtube video on, i pause it, then i go to play a song in amarok, it errors out saying the device is in use. how can i fix this so i can play as many things at once as i like? [03:55] Buttons840, Im not sure but maybe you need to do a "cd /" first [03:55] aperson: you will eventually find the line that is not working. You will have to trouble shoot it from there [03:55] vilemaxim, will do [03:55] if it is looking for a file to remove. I would put one there [03:55] thats wired [03:55] srayahu_: You should unmount it before you attempt to do any partitioning [03:55] sudo: cd: command not found? [03:56] Unmounted now [03:56] Buttons840: I think you mean ~/.B.blend [03:56] lol, is it case sensitive? [03:56] do you have another sd card [03:56] RedSocrates: Can you help me? I have the memory card unmounted now. [03:56] trey, no. [03:56] Buttons840, without sudo just cd /, thats take to the root folder [03:56] Buttons840: Linux is case sensitive by default [03:56] aperson: I'm sorry... maybe there is a better/easier way, but that is how I've solved it in the past. [03:56] srayahu_: I've never tried to format an SD card, and I don't really use gparted. If you restart gparted with the card unmounted, does it show up? [03:57] blacky: I am still on 8.10 but I am assuming 9.04 uses Pulseaudio? If so, are all your sound programs using Pulseaudio as their output sound device? [03:57] vilemaxim, that's fine, I don't mind that method [03:57] is this the ferst time you used the sd slout [03:57] srayahu_: so in the upper right, you can't switch to it? [03:57] cratel, ya they're all using pulse [03:57] RedSocrates, no it does not. Can you suggest a better program? [03:57] ienorand, no [03:57] cratel, and the sound works fine. but only for 1 app at a time. i cant use 2 sound apps at the same time or i get device is busy errors [03:57] has anyone used the migrate documents and settings before? [03:57] hi what is a good codec pack for ubuntu?? the current gstreamer is kinda sucky and video play is not as smooth as in windows with CCCP..any recommendations? [03:58] srayahu_: what does "cat /proc/partitions" give you in terminal? [03:58] blacky: that's weird because part of the point of pulseaudio is so that apps can share the card. [03:58] blacky: You could use a Jack stack to fix that problem... [03:58] srayahu_: Whenever I do partitioning, I just use fdisk or cfdisk. The latter is a bit easier. If you know the device name of the sd card, you might be able to open it with the latter by doing "cfdisk " [03:58] tkt, jack stack? [03:58] THANKS FOR THE NO HELP ASS HOLS [03:58] BY [03:58] blacky, did you by chance install xubuntu? [03:58] Yondering, no--just 9.04 gnome ubuntu [03:59] ienorand: sda, sda1, sda2, sda5, mmcblk0, mmcblk0p1 [03:59] srayahu, im not sure if testdisk format sd cars but maybe you can try it [03:59] blacky, odd.. have you tried http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=789578 yet? [03:59] Hey guys I just installed kubuntu-desktop and had a few questions. The thing is lets say I have firefox open on desktop 1, when I switch to desktop 2 I can see the firefox that is open and maximized in desktop 1, but i see it minimized in the taskbar. Is there away to make it not visible at all in desktop 2? Also, with gnome i had shortcuts to jump from desktop1 to desktop2, how can I set those up? Thanks [03:59] blacky: there is some software in the repositories called jack... It will allow you to run multiple channels simultaneously amongst many things. Im sure theres a guide somewhere. Google for it [03:59] ubuntu 9.04. I can't open file browsers. I click places->home folder and it says 'starting [name]' and then nothing happens. Help! [04:00] !kubuntu | ralmar [04:00] ralmar: Kubuntu is Ubuntu with KDE, the K Desktop Environment, instead of Gnome. See http://kubuntu.org for more information - For support: #kubuntu - See also !KDE [04:00] tkt: won't blacky have to use jack drivers as output devices? Does Amarok support jack? I don't think flash does... [04:01] can anyone help with tv tuner installation? [04:01] hey im running ubuntu 8.04 and for some reason compiz is not working it was a few muinets ago but it seems to have just stoped [04:01] i guess no one has used the migration assistant thing [04:01] likwid: I think I have before [04:01] likwid: it should just work [04:01] ... can anyone help? I can't open file browsers for anywhere on the computer [04:02] oh ubuntu, win win win [04:02] cratel: Yeah, he will have to use jack as output, but the input can use his pulse audio so everything that works now will work plus whatever else he wants. [04:02] root_: using a root account on IRC is quite a security risk [04:02] my ubuntu fail [04:02] sebsebseb: did it just install from 1 user or many users? i used it but it installed the things from 3 users into just this 1 user i set up when i installed ubuntu [04:02] spied my wireless HP on the network and went "oh, you want to use this" [04:02] rocketsong [04:02] likwid: if I did it only one user [04:02] likwid: also as long as Windows was shut down properly you can access the partition and copy/cut stuff over that you want [04:03] hey im running ubuntu 8.04 and for some reason compiz is not working it was a few muinets ago but it seems to have just stoped [04:03] Can someone help me? [04:03] Hi, I have a quick question: I installed Endgame: Singularity through the 8.10 repos, but it was outdated. I downloaded the newest version and I can run it by running it in terminal with sh Endgame_Linux, but I can't figure out how to add it to the Applications->Games menu [04:03] !compiz | uriel [04:03] uriel: Compiz (compositing window manager), for a howto see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompositeManager and more help #compiz-fusion [04:03] Anyone else use pcchips motherboards? [04:03] uriel_: Did it error or anything? Try restarting X [04:03] tkt: input can be his pulseaudio? I don't know what you mean. How is flash going to use jack? [04:03] !helpme | Hamlton2 [04:03] Hamlton2: 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 [04:03] sebsebseb: ok then, thanks.... i don't recall being able to separate the files... yes i will have to just cut and paste [04:03] likwid: cut is move off vista, you said vista? and copy is yeah copy [04:03] hello guys [04:04] !ask | Hamlton2 [04:04] Hamlton2: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line, so others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) [04:04] cratel: Jack works as a mixer... Whatever is being used as his output for flash now can be directed to his input on jack and be tunneled to his output [04:04] sebsebseb: i have winxp x64 edition... and i'll probably just copy and paste since they may want their files still on windows. [04:04] likwid: who is they? [04:04] tkt: you sure? I've used jack a lot and that doesn't sound like anything I've ever seen. [04:04] RedSocrates: I used cfdisk, but it says I have no permission to write to disk. [04:04] anybody have experience with TwinHan Tv Tuner? I have AD-AU500 and need assistance installing proper drivers [04:05] srayahu: Did you do it with sudo? [04:05] sebsebseb: oh right, lol they is my girlfriend and her parents [04:05] RedSocrates, yes. [04:05] tkt: flash would need to output to jack. It needs a jack driver to do what you are saying. [04:05] oka so i got a ubuntu 8.04 install disk from my friend today and I put it in my computer and booted up on it, tried to install and it just went through a bunch of error messages [04:05] RedSocrates: It pulls up cfdisk, black screen etc. etc. [04:05] sebsebseb: i've set them up on ubuntu now... i meant to do it right off the bat but had issues installing a few weeks ago. so did the winxp install just so they had something in the meantime. [04:05] likwid: Hamlton2: what was the error messages? [04:06] likwid: I see, well surely you want them to be using Ubuntu rather than Vista really? so if you set up Ubuntu for their computer usage properly :d [04:06] !repeat [04:06] 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 [04:06] likwid: sorry... not for you [04:06] vilemaxim: no problem... [04:06] Then I tried to install it inside of vista and it worked. I tried to boot from ubuntu and I got a bunch of "I/O ERROR" messages [04:06] Then the screen went black for an hour [04:06] and I turned it off [04:06] please help install TwinHan Tv Tuner? I have AD-AU500 and need assistance installing proper drivers [04:06] !repeat|Hamilton2 [04:06] Hamilton2: 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 [04:07] now I have no idea what to do [04:07] likwid: any problem apps, with not a good enough Linux version or that won't work well in Wine. Windows virtual machine if computer has enough RAM, and it's not say a 3D game [04:07] sebsebseb: yeah definitely want them to use ubuntu! which is why i set it up as the default to start up.. but they could always reboot and use winxp for any reason [04:07] cratel: Pretty sure, I havent used it too much but I remember I had my studio machine and I never used flash but everything else worked with some configuration. after googling i found this... http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=843012 [04:07] likwid: exactly, but if you do this right, you can eliminate most or all the reasons for them to boot up XP :D [04:07] I used to think that moving away from windows would be really hard, but now that I got WOW working in wine and my music playing its getting easier. [04:08] WOW Runs in wine better for me on my POS machine [04:08] Hamlton2: io error would seem like the CD might be messed up, or your harddrive might be about to go. Run a test on the harddrive. [04:08] How can I format my sd memory card? [04:08] sebsebseb: yup! for sure... that's why i need to transfer their files from winxp to here. also, have to see what kind of apps they need. something like MSoffice, paint programs, cd/dvd burning [04:08] I just bought the harddrive today [04:09] srayahu: You want to format, or partition? [04:09] likwid: you have already used Ubuntu? [04:09] tkt, some weird stuff like stuttering legs but otherwise WOW is fine in wine [04:09] sebsebseb: no, i'm fairly new to ubuntu. [04:09] likwid: oh === ruanl is now known as ruanshenglong [04:09] likwid: you haven't even used Ubunt yourself, and your alreading converting other people? [04:09] Only repeating because a lot of text popped up and nudged my question out of the way, I don't think anyone saw it. I'm not trying to be needy or pushy. : ) I installed Endgame: Singularity through the 8.10 repos, but it was outdated. I downloaded the newest version and I can run it by running it in terminal with sh Endgame_Linux, but I can't figure out how to add it to the Applications->Games menu [04:09] Hamlton2: Are you using Wubi install by any chance? [04:09] voss: Yeah, I see some strange graphical glitches but other than that its faster [04:09] bya [04:09] yes [04:10] tkt, having a Geforce 9800gt helps :) [04:10] RedSocrates: You tell me - here's my problem. I have a 4 gb memory card. I had an error when deleting some files on it and now it says that 2.5 gb is used and 1.5 is free. I can't access the "used" part at all to delete it. When opened it looks empty. [04:10] the other way it wouldn't/couldn't install [04:10] likwid: Open Office is default in Ubuntu, but there's also KOffice :) and Abiword a rather nice Microsoft Word clone basically, that does not have the rubbish. Gnumeric is also for spreadshets [04:10] voss: wow.... I am way to poor for that kind of stuff... I have a geforce FX 5500 [04:10] sebsebseb: yeah! hahah sounds weird but i like linux and a few years back i started using pclinuxos when i was in college but then my PC crapped out on me [04:10] likwid: yeah thre are paint apps, and that. CD burning of course. [04:11] srayahu: Do you want to get rid of all of the data on it? [04:11] likwid: they probably have no proper reason to use Windows :) [04:11] RedSocrates: Yes! =) [04:11] Anyone else having troubles getting into the PHP channel? [04:11] how to use hotplug to specify usb disk to load usb-storage.ko, and other usb device to load usbserial.ko? [04:11] Hamlton2: IO errors when booting Wubi can mean simply that Windows wasnt shut down or was hibernated. Boot windows then shut down properly or try running scandisk. [04:11] btw: You can tell all your friends that as of Office 2007 SP 2 , Open office documents can be used interchangeably [04:11] sebsebseb: nope they don't.. i'll have to look into abiword [04:11] srayahu: What's the device name?

[04:27] music: the difference in fonts from 2006 and 2009 has improved a lot in the system.. you'd probably be better off looking at different theme's.. [04:27] srayahu: Okay. Unmount it again ("sudo umount /dev/mmcblk0p1") and just try cfdisk one more time ("sudo fdisk /dev/mmcblk0p1"). Let me know if that gives you the previous error [04:28] people are always saying you don't need to log in as root, but i have no idea how to execute a program as root and so am confined to the command line [04:28] RedSocrates: it says... (one sec) [04:28] and the only query is that i don't have the file ...but i do [04:28] music: executing a program as root is simply starting it using sudo [04:28] http://digg.com/comedy/You_Little_Bastard_Youve_Killed_Us_All_Swine_Flu?OTC-widget [04:29] for example?

I would like to make my windows machine a dual boot. The problem is both disks are currently formated at NTFS and set to one big partition each. Can the installer resize these without losing data and from there what will I need to do to get both bootable if they are both on different hard disks. Thanks [04:35] !gksudo | music [04:35] music: If you need to run graphical applications as root, use « gksudo », as it will set up the environment more appropriately. Never just use "sudo"! (See http://psychocats.net/ubuntu/graphicalsudo to know why) [04:35] srayahu: You'll probably have to run fdisk on the device again and re-delete the partitions [04:35] i'll have a look now [04:35] srayahu: And this time, before you exit, make sure you enter the w command to write changes to disk [04:36] RedSocrates: any thoughts on my issue?

[04:38] brodymcd: since we can¿t read minds and you don't say what wireless card are you using nobody will be able to help you [04:38] briscoelake: If you are currently using both disks in windows, you can move everything to C: and use the other disk for Ubuntu [04:38] scunizi: hmm, that didn't work. I can resolve the hostname on the machine itself but not from any of the computers connected through the LAN [04:38] you can install flashpaler 10 [04:38] scribawf: have you tried to reinstall flash ¿ [04:38] scunizi: the computer is hooked up to the router's WAN port and is set up as a DHCP server [04:39] has anyone uses program called touchpad? it turns off touchpad while typing ?

I have a Dell Inspiron 1526 with a broadcom wireless card that is running slowly after upgrade from 8.10 to 9.04 (amd64) - can anyone please help? I have read something about ipv6 problem but don't really even know what that all is... THANKS for any help :) [04:40] ummm, how'bout IF I reinstall Firefox? [04:40] I suspect this is a common question, as I know I've asked it before. I'm trying to enable sound recording from my Intel onboard. For some reason, when I click the "Enable Recording" button within the Volume Control, it deselects after closing the dialog. I'm running Jaunty, for reference. [04:40] briscoelake: or backup everything and reinstall windows and all your programs to one disk and delete the windows partitions on the second disk. then install Ubuntu or what ever on the second disk. [04:40] scunizi: yes [04:40] srayahu: Any luck? [04:41] micahf: sorry.. pic a computer on the lan and edit resolv.conf .. not the server itself [04:41] scribawf, you can do both I think, sudo aptitude reinstall firefox && sudo aptitude reinstal flashplugin-nonfree [04:41] micahf: then try with that machine. [04:41] ty will try that out TNX [04:41] scunizi: oh, yeah that's the hard way ! [04:41] scunizi: I have avahi working, it's just that it doesn't work in the WAN case [04:42] briscoelake: During the install of Ubuntu, it will automatically detect the windows partition and give you the choice of booting into windows or ubuntu when the computer starts up. [04:42] i am planing to do upgrade to 9.04. Now, i found some info that it is recommended to remove third party sources from synaptic. Does removing third party repositories remove software automatically, or i need to remove software manually, and then remove repositories? [04:42] srayahu_: Any luck? [04:42] micahf: other than that I think you might need to setup a dns server to resolv on the lan [04:43] Hi - I'm running Intrepid with Gnome desktop - I would like to install KDE desktop as well - Can I do that from Synaptics ? ? [04:43] brasero is burning at 0,2x :( [04:43] nikor_: install Kbuntu Desktop in Synaptic [04:43] can anyone help me with miro? I jjust upgraded to 9.04 and now it says " [04:43] Depends: libffi4 but it is not installable [04:43] Depends: python (<2.6) but 2.6.2-0ubuntu1 is to be installed [04:44] nikor_: it's easier in terminal.. sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop [04:44] sebsebseb: !touchpad [04:44] frenzy_usa: That would be easy except the disks are vastly different in size (120gb vs 1.5tb) and my windows os is on the smaller one. The problem with backing up and reinstalling is mostly one of time. I was really hoping to avoid that [04:44] xangua, I thought Kbuntu was more of an educational type desktop ? [04:44] nikor_: nope.. kde desktop [04:44] jum............. [04:44] RedSocrates: It won't let me mount now [04:44] i am planing to do upgrade to 9.04. Now, i found some info that it is recommended to remove third party sources from synaptic. Does removing third party repositories remove software automatically, or i need to remove software manually, and then remove repositories? [04:45] srayahu__: What does it say when you try to mount it? [04:45] RedSocrates: Which command should I be using? [04:45] scunizi, So < sudo apt-get install kde-desktop > ? [04:45] frenzy_usa: sorry I got behind a bit so one the second part you are saying it should handle the detection of both OS I just want to confirm that this will work with each OS on seperate disks [04:45] kubuntu-desktop [04:46] nikor_: nope.. sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop.. that will also bring in all the programs associated with kubuntu.. [04:46] RedSocrates: mount: can't find /dev/mmcblk0p1 in /etc/fstab or /etc/mtab [04:46] !kubuntu-desktop [04:46] k/ed/x/ubuntu-desktop is a metapackage. It depends upon other packages and brings them in; you can safely remove it, but it is recommended that you re-install it when upgrading. [04:46] srayahu: What command did you enter? [04:46] the problem is that you will have mixed ubuntu and gnome apps .... [04:47] and that is a lot of mixed apps [04:47] scunizi, So I'm confused a little here - Kbuntu "Is" the KDE desktop - correct ? [04:47] nikor_: kubuntu is a variant of ubuntu that uses kde by default [04:47] srayahu__: What command did you enter? [04:47] !kubuntu | nikor_ [04:47] nikor_: Kubuntu is Ubuntu with KDE, the K Desktop Environment, instead of Gnome. See http://kubuntu.org for more information - For support: #kubuntu - See also !KDE [04:48] briscoelake: Yea, it doesn't matter if you install both OS on the same or separate disks. The Ubuntu installer will still detect the windows partition. [04:48] lstarnes, Ah - Ok I get it - Thanks [04:48] !xubuntu [04:48] Xubuntu is Ubuntu with Xfce instead of !GNOME.

That would be my ideal option [04:49] scunizi, Ok - thanks - Totally clear now - The light finally went of - heh heh [04:49] i need help.. i accident deleted on botton pannl .. u know where trash and etc.. how i can take it back [04:49] nikor_: everyone are ubuntu, you can istall the same software [04:50] nikor_: it gets brighter when you experience it.. :) [04:50] frenzy_usa: if I was able to do that I could be up and running tonight instead of waiting until I can get my install disks from home (College) [04:50] xubuntu is best ;] [04:50] Has anyone gotten their Wacom tablet to work on Jaunty with pressure sensitivity enabled?

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 [04:51] xangua, So I think I read you could also install the Xubuntu - Which is a very light weight and cleaner faster desktop - is that about right ? ? [04:51] is there a terminal command to show which processor i have?

[04:52] nikor_: Your better off with gnome ( Ubuntu ) since your new. [04:52] frenzy_usa: there is where the problem is but the large disk only has disk images on it anyway and I could recreate them if needed [04:53] (if your new) =p [04:53] BePhantom: Gnea: complete details are give by sudo lshw [04:53] *given [04:53] When I had the driver installed, the xorg.conf edited with hotplugging disabled, and the hotplugging file moved, at most my tablet would be able to use the mouse but not the stylus.

[05:05] coleys: that is correct [05:06] nikor_:no, to install fluxbuntu, you need to install from a fluxbuntu CD. or you need to know the hundreds of packages (in synaptic) that fluxbuntu uses and how each one needs to be configured. fluxbuntu is functional, not friendly. If you are new to Linux, I would definitly not reccomend it. If you are new and require a lightweight desktop, use xubuntu instead. there is a xubuntu-desktop in synaptic [05:06] xsane can not recognize my scanner!!! :[ [05:06] right now, I do not get sound at all [05:06] zedster: Make sure the chmod permissions let the owner access it.

You have the option to set it as the default. Gnome will still remain a valid choice too.

[05:28] unkmar: which means I have to make a xorg.conf then? I'm using gnome on jaunty now, and by default, dual screen config creates a wide virtual resolution, but because it foils tablet behavior, I needed a per-screen workspace. Does the script you mention involve jailing mouse pointers or something? [05:28] How do i set it to when i upload a file via ftp to a directory it gives it 755 permissions? [05:28] bc: yeah, a lot of debian remains un-evolutionized and it doesn't grow much [05:28] Right now its not giving it any. [05:28] i installed jaunty when it was beta.

[06:25] i upped as soon as it was out [06:25] how come i cannot just enable an emerald theme right away [06:25] what should i do? [06:25] aah [06:25] that's what u meant [06:25] roasted: libflashsupport i think [06:25] Roasted: oh,that....its everybody's problem,not solved yet [06:25] Matson, yes... i would suggest not getting dell or gateway though [06:25] are you serious shades? [06:25] Matson, hp is okay [06:25] Roasted: I think ubottus advice is out of date. Better off googling for 9.04 sound problems [06:26] Zulhelmi: i think that package is not in the standard repo [06:26] gaelfx: is there a way to adjust the screen to fit my monitor or do i have to alt-click every time? [06:26] Matson, asus is what i recommend [06:26] Matson, but as long as you stay away from the devil and it's cow, you're good [06:26] libflashsupport - no installation candidate [06:26] i used to solve the same problem on my ubuntu 8.04 by installing that thing [06:26] shadeslayer - are you positive that every single 9.04 user out there is having the same issue as me? [06:26] edogzilla: hang on, I'm finding the solution [06:26] or is it with other name [06:26] gaelfx: ok thx [06:27] edogzilla: it looks like it's in fullscreen mode, right>? [06:27] Hi, this isn't a major problem and can wait, but i just installed ubuntu to get past a terrible grub error 22 and it seems to have formatted my secondary HDD, which had everything i need on it. if it helps, i am on a vista/ubuntu dual boot. [06:27] space_cadet: cough, the devil & its cow? [06:27] gaelfx: i dont know [06:27] Roasted: well its a well documented fact,maybe googling will help,also i cant track every 9.04 user [06:27] 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? [06:27] losher, dell and gateway [06:27] space_cadet: heh [06:28] Hooray! I have finally succeeded in using network-manager to setup a static ip in Jaunty. ;-D [06:28] edogzilla: tried pushing F11? [06:28] Banhammer: you had a backup, right? [06:28] no D: [06:28] gaelfx: i'll try it now on sec [06:29] Does anyone know why Ubuntu 9.04 does a kernel re-exec for reboot instead of a hardware reboot of the computer? [06:29] space_cadet: thanks [06:29] asus? [06:29] can anyone what does mkdir -p mean.... i know whats mkdir what does -p option mean here [06:29] !fglrx [06:29] For Ati/NVidia/Matrox video cards, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto [06:29] !eol [06:29] End-Of-Life is the time when security updates for an Ubuntu release stop. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases [06:29] matson yep [06:29] Matson, or hp [06:29] PerryArmstrong: It creates everything you specify even if there are several levels of folders that need to be created [06:29] Matson, their support is on par [06:29] Roasted: if you can find a alternative to libflashsupport you can get it to work [06:29] I thought asus mostly did laptops [06:30] gaelfx: wierd. it got bigger. so i hit f11 again and it got smaller than my monitor but my top right buttons are still gone [06:30] keith_; okk that mean i can do like this: mkdir -p dir1/dir2 [06:30] firefox -safe-mode [06:30] shadeslayer - That's a total bummer I just spent 4 hours redoing vista and ubuntu to upgrade ubuntu to 9.04 only to find out that ridiculous bug re-surfaced in this edition of ubuntu. [06:30] hi. my mouse disappears on certain parts of firefox, i'm not sure what the pattern is. [06:30] PerryArmstrong: Yes, and it will create both directories if it needs to [06:31] Matson, well then if it's a desktop... go with hp, and install ubuntu after you get it. [06:31] Matson, just be sure to make sure the HW is compatible [06:31] Roasted: sorry to hear that [06:31] keith_; thanq [06:31] Roasted: What bug? [06:31] PerryArmstrong: No problem. [06:31] gaelfx: wait. i fixed it, i tried restoring defaults in safe mode again and it woprked! woohoo! something ctually worked! lol [06:31] does no one sell whitebox desktops with ubunut? [06:31] Matson, usually though, asus is contracted to make the MOBO's for them though [06:31] Matson, so you should be in good shape [06:31] keith_ I can't play youtube audio + mp3 player audio at the same time. It's one or the other... like the old days. [06:31] edogzilla, congrats [06:31] edogzilla: and when you alt+click and drag, does the same thing happen? [06:31] keith_: playing amarok and youtube together [06:32] still can't play video tho [06:32] ermm anyone on my wireless?? it can see my network, but when i typed my WEP key, it just fails [06:32] Roasted: I don't know what made you think 9.04 would magically fix all problems. New generally means buggy. You'd have been better off trying 8.04.2 [06:32] i'm running kubuntu 9.04 [06:32] Roasted, i fixed that with pulse audio. [06:32] losher - It's not that I expected 9.04 to be problem-free. But hey, let's use a little logic here. A bug that was fixed 2 years ago you would think would be still fixed in newer editions. But, guess I was wrong. [06:32] edogzilla: haha, congrats [06:32] Roasted, but i warn you, pulse is messed up in other places. [06:33] Roasted: keith_ I can't play youtube audio + mp3 player audio at the same time. It's one or the other... like the old days , i have no problems playing flash and music at the same time [06:33] "compare operating system choices" brings me to http://hpshopping.edgesuite.net/www.shopping.hp.com/shopping/html/popup/vista_features.html [06:33] Fail to get flashplayer to run in either Opera of Firefox, uninstalled/reinstalled flashplayer, what to do? [06:33] "Which Vista would you like?" [06:33] Matson, try wikipedia comparison [06:33] Roasted: I got sound working eventually in 9.04 but I agree with tesseracter, there are other issues. In the end, I went back to 8.04.2 [06:33] i guess this flashplayer thing is a big deal [06:33] scribawf: same problem here [06:33] Matson: lol [06:34] Matson, you do know that windows 7 RC goes public the 5th right? [06:34] it only started happening when i updated firefox [06:34] I see theres still severe video tearing in 9.04 too with DVDs. *sigh* [06:34] I love ubuntu, but GAHHH [06:34] i was about to say that! [06:34] but i dont know how to downgrade [06:34] edogzilla: so which version of flash have you downloaded and tried installing? [06:34] for me, flash under 9.04 has been working more solidly than ever before. i used to get audio, but grey video Roasted. [06:34] !downgrade [06:34] Attempting to downgrade to an older Ubuntu version is explicitly not supported, and may break your system. [06:34] a lot [06:34] edogzilla; tried the whole route also? [06:35] gaelfx: the one from adobe website. also the one in synaptic [06:35] Roasted, i used to need to refresh pages 3-10 times before video would work. [06:35] cli way to use cat to join multiple text files located in three different directories? [06:35] yup did the same here [06:35] edogzilla: the one in synaptic gives the same error? [06:35] I still don't want it [06:35] scribawf: oh yeah. u have an amd processor by chance? [06:35] tesseracter - Me too. I was in the same boat. Now my video is better but I cant get audio to work while amarok is on. [06:35] whenever it goes public [06:35] Matson, i can understand [06:35] uh, no [06:35] Matson, i only boot to windows to print [06:35] Roasted, gnome or kde? [06:35] gnome [06:36] Matson, i have a dell 725 (lexmark rebrand) printer [06:36] gaelfx: it wont even let me check the box in synaptic and it tells me the same thing in the description [06:36] Roasted, tesseracter: which version are you refugees from? [06:36] 8.10 [06:36] at this point, even if microsoft made an awesome, stable system, I wouldn't use it for the same reason I don't shop at Wal mart- I don't want to support their behavior [06:36] j #ati [06:36] Roasted, try exaile. very similar to amarok, but for gnome. see if it has the same problem. [06:36] edgozilla; only happened AFTER new ubuntu 9.04 upgrade [06:36] losher, 8.10 [06:37] scribawf: oh. I am still on hardy cuz when i upgrade to ibex the nvidia drivers crash all my graphics..lol [06:37] Roasted, tesseracter: 8.10 does seem to be when the sound problems started... [06:37] Is the 64 bit version of 9.04 only for AMD processors? [06:37] so far i havent had the most pleasent experiences with ubuntu [06:37] losher - 8.04 is where the sound problems stopped for me. 8.10 also had no sound problems for me. [06:37] edogizilla; have ver 8.10 on another machine working fine with BOT browsers! [06:37] Jinxed-: no [06:37] losher, its also when flash started native flash support. [06:38] I like the way tesseracter thinks the only DE/WMs are KDE and Gnome... ;-D [06:38] edogzilla; uh that's both browsers Opera/Firefox [06:38] it seems as if exaile is working with youtube... how weird... [06:38] hehe [06:38] scribawf: sorry but i dont know what bot browsers are [06:38] Jinxed-, I'm running on an intel centrino 2 and it works fine [06:38] how can Ig et amarok 2 to respond the same way? [06:38] Jinxed-: it works on amd64 and intel processors that support emt64, which is basically every recent intel processor [06:38] Jinxed-: no, it's for any 64-bit processor that follows the intel instruction set [06:38] scribawf: oh [06:38] you guys know that sun was bought out by oracle [06:38] ? [06:38] Roasted, so the problem is only with amarok? [06:38] ok [06:38] space_cadet: yep [06:38] keith_ it seems to be [06:38] keith_, no, i use ion on my laptop. i just know that if someone uses something else, they'll tell me. [06:38] *AMD instruction set [06:38] keith_: they're the big ones. so what are you using? [06:39] * tesseracter high-fives Roasted [06:39] Roasted: Then I would look at what amarok is using for sound. Might be alsa? [06:39] so ah...there's no helping me is there? [06:39] i've seen amarok work in 9.04 [06:39] once === NoIdeasOriginal is now known as sahyuhr [06:39] edogzilla; can't seem to find much info on prblms w/9.04 Jaunty for Flashplayer [06:39] keith_ I tried to search for amarok's settings, but amarok and amarok 2 are very different and I cant locate those settings with amarok 2. [06:39] Roasted, they took them out [06:39] Roasted: what are you trying to do? [06:39] roasted amarok now sucks [06:39] edogzilla: so you have only tried installing the 32-bit version? [06:39] space_cadet - um, why? [06:40] keith_: I had problems with Amarok just after upgrading. But it was not ALSA [06:40] Roasted, who knows [06:40] gaelfx: as far as i know yes [06:40] Roasted, they stripped it wayy down [06:40] losher: I use Gnome, I just felt like poking. [06:40] Roasted: don't mind him... its just different, no features are lost [06:40] gaelfx: it didnt really specify [06:40] fde, really [06:40] fde - I can't get youtube audio and amarok2 to work at the same time. with amarok1 I had to change an engine setting. But now with amarok2 I cant find it. [06:40] keith_: I had to apt-get the non-free codecs again [06:40] fde - then how can I change engine settings in amarok2? [06:40] keith_: :-) [06:40] edogzilla: what type of computer do you have? like brand and model number [06:41] Roasted: install the xine pulse plugin, and ensure phonon is using xine [06:41] fde, http://amarok.kde.org/blog/archives/809-Missing-features-in-Amarok-2.html [06:41] Roasted: Can't you just open the settings through amarok2 and look? [06:41] gaelfx: its a custom built amd dual core [06:41] keith_ um, yeah, I did that... they're not there. [06:41] nvidia graphics card [06:41] Is it normal to have a lot of processes running under Ubuntu? Right now I have 227 processes running, that seems like a lot... [06:41] space_cadet: I have used it for about 4 months [06:41] keith_ otherwise I wouldnt have asked :P [06:41] So I have an Intel Core 2 Duo P8600 I should get the amd64 version of 9.04? [06:41] fde read the link [06:41] fde - the xine pulse plugin... so that magically gives me more amarok2 settings to change the engine? or what? [06:41] Roasted: Is amarok 2 the one in the Jaunty repo? [06:41] Jinxed-: you certainly could, yes [06:41] Jinxed-: it will work, yes [06:41] fde, plus it doesn't play music anymore [06:42] alright thanks [06:42] keith_ I assume so. I just did sudo apt-get install amarok and this is what I got... [06:42] edogzilla: and you're positive you aren't running 64-bit version? [06:42] fde it just sits there like a dummy terminal [06:42] umm where are teh md5 checksums [06:42] Roasted: I am going to see what I can figure out. [06:42] gaelfx: i am not positive. how do i find out? [06:42] !md5 [06:42] To verify your Ubuntu ISO image (or other files for which an MD5 checksum is provided), see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/VerifyIsoHowto or http://www.linuxquestions.org/linux/answers/LQ_ISO/Checking_the_md5sum_in_Windows [06:42] how do I check ubuntu support for this: http://www.shopping.hp.com/webapp/shopping/computer_series.do?storeName=computer_store&category=desktops&series_name=a6700z_series [06:42] "HP Pavilion a6700z series" [06:42] Roasted: Amarok2 uses KDE4 settings... thus it uses Phonon... so if the phonon backend is using xine that has a pulse plugin, it won't complain with Flash as that too uses Pulse as of 10.x [06:42] Vague: 227 *running*, or most of them sleeping? [06:42] gaelfx: what is i386? cuz im pretty sure its that [06:43] fde - Amarok2 and KDE... Blah. [06:43] suddenly exaile is looking a little sexier [06:43] Roasted: yes... I got that part [06:43] um i cant get my CD ROM to mount === NoIdeasOriginal is now known as sahyuhr [06:43] Matson: there are some sites for laptops with linux.. I don't remember the urls though.. or you could bring a live cd to the stora and ask them if it's ok to test it [06:43] losher, sleeping, does sleeping mean they're not using CPU/memory? [06:43] Roasted, if you can live with exaile (i like it better), it works better with gnome [06:43] Roasted: idk, that's how I set up phonon, and I never had issues... except the various plasma leaks [06:43] says " cant mount file " [06:43] hmm flash isn't working correctly, any help solving this problem would be greatful [06:43] tesseracter - I think I'll try it out, but I'd really like to get amarok2 working just for the sake of it, ya know? [06:44] Vague: yes. The number of processes has been going up. 148 sleeping, 1 running on my 8.04.2 [06:44] after upgrading to 9.04 I had to apt-get install this: [06:44] ubuntu-restricted-extras [06:44] libxine1-ffmpeg [06:44] phonon-backend-xine [06:44] phonon-backend-gstreamer [06:44] tsuriwan: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. [06:44] Everything work as usual with Amarok. [06:44] what package includes iotop? [06:44] chr|s: join the club [06:44] edogzilla: I think the command is lsb_release -a [06:44] Matson, you should be fine with that [06:44] losher, so should I be concerned that there's a lot of unnecessary stuff running? Or? [06:44] edogzilla: its simple fix, Ive done it before [06:44] what is the 'hp system tray' used for?? [06:44] do I need it? [06:44] Roasted, of course. but you can complain in #amarok now when it is messed up. target your error, then find or write a bug report at least. [06:44] the_gamer: sudo apt-get install apt-file && apt-file update && apt-file search [06:45] chr|s: great. how? [06:45] edogzilla: I run 64bit [06:45] matson nvidia chipset, asus board, [06:45] hieper de piep hoera [06:45] hieper de piep hoera [06:45] gaelfx: thats not the command [06:45] Matson, realtek lan [06:45] space_cadet: thanks [06:45] hieper de piep hoera [06:45] RICARDO38: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. [06:45] Vague: mind your terminology. Sleeping is not running. It's normal to have lots of sleepers. Anyone on 9.04 care to offer a number? [06:45] fff [06:45] edogzilla: oops, sorry, hang on [06:45] Roasted: I told you how to fix amarok2, either do what I said or stop asking the same question. [06:45] chr|s: oh. i dont know if i run 64 bit, trying to find out how to look now [06:45] Matson, plus, unlike mine, it's not the little kid version ... (half the sata and ram dimms. [06:45] fde - yeah, I got that, thanks. [06:45] ...... === simple is now known as simplechat_ [06:46] Matson, you have the full enchalada there. [06:46] losher, ah okay [06:46] Matson, the only thing i can forsee is the hd audio may not work as it does in windows. [06:46] Matson, where it detects jack insertion [06:47] Vague: sleepers use ram, and maybe swap, but not cpu... [06:47] space_cadet: it definitely doesn't, this isn't windows... stupid statement [06:47] Matson, but there may be ways to fix that, i haven't looked into it. [06:47] edogzilla: would it be too much to try downloading the 64-bit version and try installing it? [06:47] gaelfx: yah [06:47] Does anyone like the new Amarok? I don't.... [06:47] rasmith1959: yes [06:47] matson http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c01357135&lc=en&dlc=en&cc=us&lang=en&product=3911768 [06:47] rasmith1959: almost no-one apparently... [06:48] losher, well, I don't really have a lot of concerns for my RAM, considering I have 4 gigs on a laptop I use mostly for work/class/communication [06:48] No one likes its at first because it's radically different, but they haven't taken away any features [06:48] How would I go back to 1.4? [06:48] rasmith1959: you'd have to search google for a ppa that includes it [06:48] good morning [06:48] Vague: that attitude is pretty much how the numbers got so big :-) [06:49] rasmith1959: you can also add an old Ubuntu versions repo to /etc/apt/sources.list and apt-get -t -b source amarok [06:49] Ok thanks! [06:49] fde that will install the old amarok? [06:49] is it safe to apt-get --purge dovecot-postfix with dovecot and postfix running? or will the --purge command stop the service and then remove it? [06:49] fde, i mean allow me to install? [06:50] or its it better to just apt-get remove the package? [06:50] rasmith1959: note that will build the old version in the current tool chain, you cannot just install the old binary [06:50] losher, well, I didn't expect it to be so many when I saw it O.o but I've never used any of my swap, so I assume that's good >.> [06:50] * Chr|s bangs head on keyboard [06:50] i want acces my ubuntu server x-server over network... i have installed minimal xfce desktop, so i can configure virtualbox... i tried tightvncserver, but it opens the display 1 for acces the desktip not main display 0.. how can i connect to :0? [06:50] space_cadet: as I just said, that will compile the old version on the current tool chain... make sure you only add the deb-src [06:51] oh yeah, i installed virtualbox 2.2 from the sun website (using their repository) [06:51] hmm [06:51] rasmith1959: you too... it'd be a deb-src repo, not a regular deb repo [06:51] it installed fine however i can't seem to be able to access it [06:51] Vague: RAM has gotten so big that linuxes doesn't swap much any more... [06:51] any ideas? [06:51] * space_cadet thinks for a min [06:51] * space_cadet decides to just stick with banshee [06:51] fde, thx though.. [06:51] Well I give up [06:52] this is extremely annoying. upgraded to jaunty and my laptop's ati X300 radeon is slow as hell [06:52] It says to contact the ALSA developers and request support for my sound card [06:52] like is there any way to get more info on an installed package [06:52] ? [06:52] but there is no link [06:52] Ok... so then I'd have to run the configure script and then run a make install, right? [06:52] noaXess: there are special versions of vnc that share the desktop. I thought newer releases do this automatically. Sorry I don't recall the details, I don't run gnome... [06:52] space_cadet: lol, rhythmbox is fine for me... amarok is really nice though... I'll probably play more when I get Fedora installed, the preview release isn't loading hal, and I can't figure out how to boot to runlevel 1 because I want my volume encrypted [06:52] anyone aware of some good 9.04 cd/dvd covers? not actual cd labels, but the box art [06:53] Roasted, fde: I'm not getting Amarok to work at all [06:53] losher, is that a bad thing necessarily? Sounds like a positive advancement. [06:53] keith_: in a gnome environment? it's easy in a kde environment [06:53] fde: yeah. Never had any problems before... but this new version is odd. Maybe I should try restarting. =/ [06:54] fde, did you have to do anything to amarok2 to get it to play mp3's, I have the restricted and all that... [06:54] If I'm correct the problem with my audio is that the card isn't supported by ALSA [06:54] Vague: I think it's sloppy coding, and it can't go on forever, or you end up with a bloated pig of an os, no names mentioned of course... [06:54] gaelfx: hey guess what...i have a 64 bit [06:54] because it says that it's using an IDT codec for an Intel sound card [06:54] keith_: what I said about ensuring the phonon backend is using pulseaudio should point you in the right direction to getting it working [06:54] uninstalled plasma-widget-network-manager by mistake. Got Kubuntu9.04 cd and I also got amd64 (what I use) package from http://packages.ubuntu.com/jaunty/plasma-widget-network-manager. Package from website gives "error". CD added to repository list and still no install.. error again. Anyone got any ideas? [06:54] edogzilla: uname -a [06:54] gaelfx: huh? [06:54] edogzilla: I had a feeling that was what was happening :D [06:55] edogzilla: that's how you check for which version [06:55] fde: Going on what space_cadet asked, I tried an ogv file in amarok and it works [06:55] space_cadet: check apt-cache show kubuntu-restricted-extras for amarok related stuff... it should depend on the phonon plugins for it [06:55] 2.6.24-23-generic #1 SMP Wed Apr 1 21:43:24 UTC 2009 x86_64 GNU/Linux [06:55] fde for ubuntu? no problems with that? [06:55] gaelfx: thats 64 bit right? [06:56] In amarok, pause starts the clip over for me... [06:56] space_cadet: amarok is part of kubuntu, I didn't say install kubuntu-restricted-extras... just look at it and see what the required amarok/xine related stuff is [06:56] Vague: then before you know it, you can't boot with less than 4G ram.... [06:56] gaelfx: 2.6.24-23-generic #1 SMP Wed Apr 1 21:43:24 UTC 2009 x86_64 GNU/Linux [06:56] losher, ahh, I see what you mean, if they disregard the RAM as a problem, more and more things will be default processes, even as unnecessary, and...ta da, you have windows vista? lol [06:56] Vague: you said the V-word. For shame.... [06:56] edogzilla: yep [06:56] gaelfx: thats what uname -a spat out [06:57] gaelfx: so does that mean all is not lost?

[06:57] edogzilla: yeah, x86_64 means you are using 64-bit [06:57] can anyone help with reinstalling plasma-widget-network manager on kubuntu9.04? [06:57] ItsMe: try #kubuntu [06:57] edogzilla: precisely, download the 64-bit version of Flash, should work well [06:57] gaelfx: can u link it plz? [06:58] fde: can't actually join that channel from web-irc which is all I got on this laptop (good laptop has no network manager!) [06:58] edogzilla: http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/flashplayer10/ [06:58] keith_, http://www.mail-archive.com/kubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com/msg18977.html [06:58] gaelfx: thx so much [06:59] edogzilla: no prob, good luck! [06:59] How is brasero in 9.04, fully functional? [06:59] Anyone knows how to prevent bluetooth from turning on every boot in Ubuntu 9.04? Blacklisting bluetooth and hci_usb doesn't seem to work [06:59] keith_, http://nomad.ca/blog/2009/apr/3/amarok-14-jaunty-ubuntu-904/ [07:00] Bonjour à tous [07:00] !fr [07:00] Ce canal est en anglais uniquement. Si vous avez besoin d'aide ou voulez discuter en francais, merci de rejoindre #ubuntu-fr [07:00] gaelfx: do i download the (YUM), .rpm, or .deb? [07:00] Hi all! How do i make my computer autologin as root in init3... I know how to do this with inittab but ubuntu uses upstarter and Im new to it [07:01] OK. Thanks. Have a nice day ;) [07:01] https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Packaging/Training in #ubuntu-classroom now [07:01] gaelfx: or.tar.gz? [07:02] it asks me to apply 0.2 gram of thermal grease between CPU and heatsink, how much is 0.2 grams ? [07:02] edogzilla: .deb [07:03] Kengine, a dab about the size of a grain of rice [07:03] raylu: thx [07:03] Kengine, brand? [07:03] Kengine: about the size of a pea is generally the guideline IMO [07:03] space_cadet: starTech [07:03] edogzilla: um, I think there should be a .deb [07:03] never heard of it [07:03] raylu: i get the same error i was getting before. its not the 64-bit version [07:03] space_cadet: Silver Oxide Compound Thermal Heatsink pasge its 1.5g Tube [07:04] i use arctic silver [07:04] losher: okk man :) [07:04] Kengine: it's ok if a little bit squishes out when you put it together, in fact, it's desirable. Wipe it up though [07:04] to each his own [07:04] gaelfx: must be wrong version. not 64-bit i mean === Jiyu_ is now known as JiYu [07:04] Kengine, make sure you don't get any on any traces [07:04] edogzilla: sorry, i have no idea what's going on; just answering the last question because you sohuldalways go for the debs [07:04] losher: so I scrub the bottom of the heatsink to remove the before one and then give a peasize thermal paste and then put it back [07:04] edogzilla: *should always [07:04] Kengine, silver oxide is conductive [07:05] space_cadet: what does that mean ? its not good ? [07:05] Kengine, best to use alcohal to clean the old residue off [07:05] raylu: oh. sorry [07:05] Kengine, conductive to electricity [07:05] Kengine, you short out the databus to the cpu your done [07:05] space_cadet: so I can use it right ? or not ? [07:05] yes [07:06] Kengine: yes, I agree with space_cadet, gentle cleaning with a paper towel and alcohol to remove the old crud so it's nice & shiny clean again, then dab a pea size blob and reassemble [07:06] ok good I can use it then [07:06] losher:dont have alcohol [07:06] maybe some cleaner will help ? [07:06] Kengine: no vodka? [07:06] Kengine, don't use anything but alchohal [07:06] losher: :( [07:06] <[__FireSoul__]> hi every one where can i find bluetooth.h hci.h rfcomm.h and hci_lib.h for 2.6.28-8-generic [07:06] losher: minor here [07:07] how do i tell what remote desktop software is set p on my workstation ? (for serving) [07:07] Kengine: not sure anything else will work... Ask your parents? No rubbing alcohol? [07:07] Kengine, alcohol is the only recommended thing to clean the residue off with because anything else can leave residue. [07:07] I have Visual Effects enabled, but my screen comes a blank white. I want to disable it to get started with work. I login to failsafe gnome and go to Apperance and Visual effects and I see None selected. (?!) How do I switch off visual effects? [07:07] space_cadet: ohh ok [07:07] Kengine, particularly, DO NOT use fingernail polish remover [07:07] space_cadet: how about aftershave ? [07:08] nope [07:08] uggh [07:08] the scent contains oil [07:08] and impurities [07:08] space_cadet: what if I dont clean it ? [07:08] just scrub it off [07:08] impurities = less heat transfer [07:08] and wipe it [07:08] Kengine, ideally you want 90%+ isopropyl alcohol [07:09] less heat transfer = cpu may overheat [07:09] Kengine, it's only 2 dollas at the store [07:09] This may sound like a boneheaded question but does ufw actually "opens" a port when you type a rule out? [07:09] space_cadet: he doesn't want to *wait* [07:09] lol [07:09] well... it's either wait and have a nice cool system [07:10] or rush it and risk burning out a cpu [07:10] jon_high9000, sudo iptables -L [07:10] I have been having troubles with my wireless, I just recently have been able to see the networks around me but every time i try to connect I fail... My wireless card is: Atheros Communications Inc. AR928X Wireless NetworkAdapter (PCI-Express) (rev 01) [07:10] space_cadet: he's under 18. He may be physiologically incapable of waiting... [07:10] lol [07:11] Can any one help me? [07:12] keith_, that last link i gave you works perfect :) [07:12] space_cadet: I remember when computing was so exciting I didn't want to wait till the next day to put my system together, barely... [07:12] i am using a command line irc client! [07:12] lol [07:12] hi guys [07:12] Kengine: what processor is it? And what kind of cooler... [07:12] pyrak, you are so cool for using the cli version [07:13] space_cadet: The link about 1.4? [07:13] 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??? [07:13] yep [07:13] lol [07:13] hi [07:13] keith_, nomad.ca [07:14] So how is brasero in 9.04, fully functional? [07:14] anybody from india [07:14] !in [07:14] #ubuntu-in is the channel for Ubuntu in India [07:14] losher: Looks good, seems to work fine. No problems here. [07:14] lamrinraj, #ubuntu-in for India [07:14] AK_Dave: thanks... [07:14] anybody hear any updates on the window drawing delay with Jaunty + ATI + Compiz Fusion? [07:14] Anyone able/willing to help me figure out why 1. I have random static at random times and 2. I have audio output on only one side of my headphones? [07:15] hey guys, losher: so drop of drinking wine is good ? [07:15] !offtopic [07:15] #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics. Thanks! [07:15] fde, if you haven't been following, here is what i found for those that may want amarok 1.4 back... :) http://nomad.ca/blog/2009/apr/3/amarok-14-jaunty-ubuntu-904/ [07:15] Surlent777: your headphone cable is broken [07:15] anyone knows which is best sql injection tool [07:15] please take hardware and other discussion to #ubuntu-offtopic [07:15] losher: I like Brasero, and I'm a k3b fan. [07:15] mgmuscari: very much doubt it [07:15] Kengine: Not even close. Full of impurities. That's why I said vodka. Neat vodka is pretty much straight alcohol [07:16] mgmuscari: I notice that neither side of the Headphone meter in the gnome sound thing affects it, but master, which the tooltip labels as mono, does affect it [07:16] AK_Dave: I liked k3b too, but it stopped verifying, and looks like development on it stalled. [07:16] <[__FireSoul__]> problem solved .. i needed libbluez-dev [07:16] <[__FireSoul__]> :D [07:16] losher: If neat vodka was straight alcohol, it would be close to 200 proof. :) [07:16] hello [07:16] losher one word... everclear [07:16] <[__FireSoul__]> thanks any ways guys [07:16] hhi just installed ubuntu 9.04 and i have a feeling i stuffed up the install can someone tell me how i find out what hard drive ubuntu has been installed on [07:16] losher: k3b development seems stalled because it needs to be fully ported to qt4 [07:17] AK_Dave: It;s not clear that's going ot happen to k3b, or when [07:17] will the netbook remix image work for installing onto non-atom processors? i have a laptop with no optical drive that has an intel centrino processor. [07:17] phillip sudo fdisk -l (lowercase L) [07:17] losher: True dat, not clear if or when. Lots of little things like that keep me solidly with gnome for the time being. [07:17] so... canonical won't ship to the US, but the usstore they point you to, doesn't have 9.04 CD's ... any alternatives? ( I want to buy them instead of burn them so they look nicer to give to people ) [07:17] AK_Dave: Sorry, you're right. It's alcohol & water. Not much residue... [07:17] ok I'm dumb. Plugging it in all the way got me equalized output on my headphones [07:17] how many people here are using Jaunty with an ATi video card and Compiz Fusion? [07:17] nondysjunction yes [07:17] Kengine: what processor is it? And what kind of cooler... [07:18] tweakedeh_: in what way does your wireless connection fail? if you type "nm-tool" from a terminal, what is the state of your wireless connection? [07:18] thanks space_cadet [07:18] zhanx: i made this image and when i boot from it, i get a one line error saying: Boot Error [07:18] phillip41, yep [07:18] haiiii [07:18] zhanx: I don't know what the problem could be. I checked the md5sum and the image is correct [07:18] think i have really screwed things up [07:18] losher: IBM T60, core 2 duo [07:19] nondysjunction, downloaded from internet, burned to cd? [07:19] yes i tengarti [07:19] so i followed a bunch of instructions to install flashplayer 10 in 64-bit 8.04. they didnt work tho. still no web video. anyone know how to install flash for 64 bit? [07:19] ok, I don't think my idocy explains the static I get from my main speakers...it seems to be kind of random...it's never happend in Amarok2, but it happens a lot in pidgin, and once with recordmydesktop so far... [07:19] space_cadet: downloaded from internet, dd'ed to usb stick [07:19] 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? [07:19] losher: I was big on KDE 3.5.x but then KDE4 came along, sucked the life of of KDE3 app development, and at this point it looks like maybe in another year it'll be something for me to use. By that time I'll retire my current workhorse laptop, now ~4yr old, for something new. So it will all work out. [07:19] <[biabia]> does ubuntu not use lcap or is it called something else [07:19] nondysjunction, use unetbootin. [07:19] losher: I think I am going to wait for some of that, before opening my laptop, but now the heat of CPU is raging from 60-70C :<< [07:19] k, I don't think my idocy explains the static I get from my main speakers...it seems to be kind of random...it's never happend in Amarok2, but it happens a lot in pidgin, and once with recordmydesktop so far... [07:19] nondysjunction, or at least try it and report findings. [07:19] space_cadet: what is that, where do i get it? [07:20] haha what [07:20] MrKeuner: i don't know why it warns that they're missing, but have you noticed that in Jaunty, restoring/resizing windows with Compiz Fusion enabled has a 0.5-2 second lag? [07:20] http://unetbootin.sourceforge.net/ [07:20] Kengine: I thought intel processors all have overheating protection. But my advice is to wait & do it right... [07:20] nondysjunction, ^^ [07:20] nondysjunction, just mark it as executable [07:21] sudo apt-get upgarde applies availible system upgrades, right? [07:21] does anyone know how to install flash in a 64-bit 8.04? [07:21] Hello, my hard disk does not install ubuntu, says there is an error in the IO, which can be? [07:21] AK_Dave: I'm an old CLI hack, so I don't use a desktop... [07:21] nondysjunction, now... this does not allow you to do a persistent usb disk... just a live disk. [07:21] gartral: yes. Be sure to apt-get update first [07:21] in firefox plugins, which plugins should I make sure are disabled? I'm installing the native beta 64bit version of flash [07:21] mgmuscari, I did not install jaunty due to that warning, you installed it and fglrx works? [07:21] losher: I'm a CLI hack who has gotten lazy over time. :P [07:21] AK_Dave: :-) [07:22] losher: My favorite KDE app of all time is ... yakuake [07:22] Surlent777: awesome, how do i quit irssi, im in a ssh term from a mac... [07:22] nondysjunction sorry was on the phone [07:22] space_cadet is their a way to find out the name of the actual hard drive ubuntu installed on at all [07:22] gartral: /quit [07:22] Somebody help me [07:22] mgmuscari, could you please post $ fglrxinfo somewhere? [07:23] phillip41, yes, but i don't know (sorry) [07:23] MrKeuner: fglrx seems to be working, but Compiz Fusion is a bit buggy. I get occasional artifacts when restoring windows, and opening, minimizing, restoring, and resizing windows all have a short lag that is directly proportional to the size of the window [07:23] lol thanks anyway SP3C7R3 [07:23] lol thanks anyway space_cadet [07:23] phillip41, fdisk -l should have reported sda or b [07:23] All I can say is tha NVIDIA works like a charm =/ [07:23] phillip41, or hda or b [07:23] it did but too many [07:23] Help me please! [07:23] MrKeuner: sure [07:23] phillip41, a is the first disk, b is the second [07:24] ubuntu: Do not ask to ask for help, etc. Just state your question [07:24] mgmuscari, I do not care compiz at the moment, all I need is some 3d support to run googleearth. Have you checked by any chance if googleearth runs smoothly? [07:24] !googleearth [07:24] Google Earth is now available, for free (only as in price), for Linux, too. To download it see http://earth.google.com/download-earth.html - A package for Ubuntu is available in the !Medibuntu repository [07:24] ubuntu: you're going to have to do a bit more work to get help. Like, the *exact* text of the error you're seeing... [07:25] During the installation of ubuntu it freezes and shows an error of IO, which can be? [07:25] nah it says sda1 sda2 sda3 sda4 sda5 then sdb1 sdb2 sdb5 [07:25] ubuntu, you may try burning the image at 4x or slower [07:25] ok So Ive read through the release notes done EVERYTHING the wiki has said and I have had no performance fixes for my 945gm. My question is this: anyway I can downgrade to 8.10 without a fresh install and does Xorg actually know what is the cause of this bug? If so is there a beta patch that I can try? [07:25] MrKeuner: you don't need compiz to get compositing. xcompmgr does a good job of basic compositing. [07:25] phillip41, which one has linux-native [07:25] it is really confusing [07:25] phillip41, sda or b [07:26] sdb i think [07:26] I am using the cd that Canonical sent me. [07:26] phillip41, sda is your first hard disk, the 1-5 are the partitions [07:26] After 8.04.2 > 8.10 Upgrade I have no longer LAN access! The NetworkManager applet 0.7.0 shows in the lower right an "x" in a red square. dmesg includes a line: "eth0: link up, 100Mbps, full duplex, lpa 0x45E1." How to fix that? My presumption: NetworkManager shuts down the Ethernet controller 8139. What does the dmesg line "[ __report_bad_irq+0x2c/0xa0]" mean? [07:26] phillip41, same thing with b [07:26] maheshjr2000_: I have intel 945 graphics. Two options work well: downgrade to Intrepid's xserver-xorg-intel-2.4 or UPgrade to kernel 2.6.30-rc2 from Karmic, with the assoc xserver-xorg-intel [07:26] um, would anyone have any idea why I seem to get random static in say, pidgin and recordmydesktop, and yet other apps, like Amarok2, so far have not had any audio issues? [07:26] space_cadet: I am using the cd that Canonical sent me. [07:27] ahh ok space_cadet [07:27] maheshjr2000_: Both walkthroughs are on ubuntuforums === jay is now known as Guest40125 [07:27] sweet how do I upgrade to the karmic kernel? [07:27] ubuntu, is it scratched? [07:27] ahh [07:27] ok [07:27] thanks [07:27] maheshjr2000_: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. [07:27] Hello everybody [07:27] jjrUbu: back so soon? Bonsoir... [07:27] if that doesnt work is there anyway to downgrade to 8.10 without a fresh install? [07:28] Basic problem: I just formatted over an NTFS HD with ext3, trying to use testdisk to fix that. [07:28] My Terminal Administrator don't start under Netbook-remix 9.04. Any idea ? [07:28] has anybody experienced googleearth using the free driver on ati x300 card? [07:28] maheshjr2000_: cannot downgrade the entire install to intrepid w/o a reinstall. But you can downgrade just the xserver-xorg-intel to intrepid's 2.4 w/o a total reinstall. [07:28] infamousllama: you realise the data is gone regardless, right? [07:28] space_cadet: No, the 8:04 version and that Canonical sent me does not work and my 8:10 of the same error! [07:28] So my first question is why ubuntu would call a drive /dev/sdb, when other things (like testdisk) think it's /dev/sdc [07:29] has anybody experienced googleearth using the free driver on ati x300 card? Is it usable? [07:29] hello all, for hacking my router I need to work with TFTP-Client for Windows... but... I use Kubuntu, how can I solve this problem? [07:29] losher, infamousllama: data gone? probably not.. [07:29] It was a quick format, some may be retrievable. [07:29] maheshjr2000_: On my netbook, the one with the intel 945, I have: installed the intrepid 2.4 driver, used it, uninstalled it back to Jaunty, installed the Karmic kernel & files, used it, and gone back to Jaunty. All in the space of an afternoon. Easy work. [07:30] ya but not my question, I was wondering if i could COMPLETELY switch down to 8.10 without a fresh install [07:30] space_cadet you got any sudgestions regarding using vista in a virtual at all it is preinstalled [07:30] Slart, infamousllama: seriously? I'm stunned I think... [07:30] infamousllama: there is software that searches a device for files and saves them .. photorec is one.. magicrescue is another [07:30] losher: you rarely actually write to the entire disk when you format it [07:30] ubuntu, try it again, write down the error (if there are more than one of the same just put "it increments") then come back and ask [07:30] Are there any python programmers here who develop GUI programs? [07:30] ubuntu: at what point does it "not work"? for an I/O error I would suspect 3 main failure points: the CD, the CD-ROM drive, or the hard drive. you can narrow it down a little. does the "live cd" functionality work? [07:30] maheshjr2000_: So the walkthroughs on ubuntuforums are good, thorough, and totally reversable. Of the various options, the BEST graphics comes from the 2.6.30-rc2 Karmic kernel & modules, but that kernel appears to lack restricted modules so my wifi only works with ndiswrapper. [07:31] when i download a very large file and if i have to shutdown/hibernate the system due to a power cut and then when i resume the download..the download fails...is there any solution to this?? [07:31] Second question is how I can mount another partition around evms so I can get storage enough to save an image of my half-dead drive. [07:31] phillip41, you mean run it in a vm from the drive it's installed on? [07:31] maheshjr2000_: See above. I said you cannot completely switch to Intrepid w/o a reinstall. I said that already. [07:31] phillip41, good luck if so. [07:31] ahh [07:31] my bad [07:31] Thank you very much [07:31] hello [07:31] no i wish to run windows vista within ubuntu [07:31] PerryArmstrong: Use wget -c for large files. [07:31] #help [07:32] phillip41: go to www.virtualbox.org and install virtualbox [07:32] mobi-sheep; but that looks like a command prompt..is there no GUI?? [07:32] still gettin the release notes cannot be found the server maybe overloaded [07:32] phillip41, do you mean to run windows vista that is already installed, within ubuntu? [07:32] does anyone have a workaround ? [07:32] losher: there are programs that actually write to the entire disc to wipe out information.. those take more than a day to get through a hardisk > 500GB [07:32] phillip41, or install vista inside ubuntu [07:32] !ask | MaggieMay [07:32] MaggieMay: 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. :-) [07:32] phillip41, because the first option (afaik) is close to impossible [07:32] my question is how is everyone tonight [07:32] Slart, infamousllama: I suppose the data blocks *are* still there, scattered all over the disk. Might be hard to reconstruct the larger files though... [07:33] anyone ? [07:33] Right, I'm thinking photorec after trying testdisk [07:33] !ot > MaggieMay [07:33] MaggieMay, please see my private message [07:33] space_cadet i have windows vista installed already on laptop ubuntu installed on usb hard drive [07:33] For any GUI python programmers: What toolkit do you use? [07:33] MaggieMay: I'd be doin' pretty good if I could figure out why I have random sttic in certain apps [07:33] static even [07:33] mpontillo: the live cd works perfectly. [07:33] Slart: had much luck recovering data from such disks? [07:33] mobi-sheep; any other idea?? [07:33] losher: I've recovered some files from a formatted usb-stick.. small files though [07:34] phillip41, if you want to run the already installed instance of vista inside ubuntu... it is next to impossible. however, if you wish to install a new version of vista inside ubuntu http://www.virtualbox.org is the way to go [07:34] It looks like I have a semi-intract NTFS boot sector backup, I'm thinking of restoring that - but I'd like to get an image first in case that screws with things. [07:34] bazhang; when i download a very large file and if i have to shutdown/hibernate the system due to a power cut and then when i resume the download..the download fails...is there any solution to this?? [07:34] anyway [07:34] * space_cadet is gone for the night [07:34] ok space_cadet one question then can it be installed into the same location as the already installed version [07:34] Slart: I guess that's what I'd expect. Anything that spans more than a block might need to be reassembled by hand worst case... [07:35] space_cadet or mpontillo: I think the problem is with the hard drive, have any command to check that? [07:35] bazhang; mobi-sheep suggested me to use wget...but i wanted a good GUI?? [07:35] phillip41, i would say no. you have to create a virtual hard drive to install an os in a virtual box [07:35] ok [07:35] infamousllama: worth a try. So what do you need to proceed? [07:35] ubuntu, not off hand [07:35] losher: hmm.. might be a fun experiment to try.. see if those recovery programs can manage larger files [07:35] again [07:35] * space_cadet is gone for the night [07:35] how can i remote connect to display 0 of my xfce desktop? [07:36] Slart: it comes up regularly enough that it'd be worth knowing how it's done... [07:36] how do I upgrade from 8.10 to 9.04 using a local mirror instead of the regular ubuntu mirror? [07:36] The problem now is that I want to get an image so I have a backup of my half-dead drive before I hack away and maybe make it fully dead. [07:36] Slart;when i download a very large file and if i have to shutdown/hibernate the system due to a power cut and then when i resume the download..the download fails...is there any solution to this?? === myst is now known as Guest42286 [07:36] hello all, for hacking my router I need to work with TFTP-Client for Windows... but... I use Kubuntu, how can I solve this problem? [07:36] some command checks the disk errors and recover them? [07:36] ubuntu: your hard drive manufacturer probably has the tools you are looking for. I would check their web site and if their test tools report a bad drive, call their support line. be careful because some of those tools run destructive tests. back up your data first! [07:36] PerryArmstrong: use some kind of download manager.. I think there is one based on wget [07:36] I added the the apt line for the local mirror to the `software sources' but that doesn't seem to help [07:37] !info wmget | PerryArmstrong [07:37] PerryArmstrong: wmget (source: wmget): Background download manager in a Window Maker dock app. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.6.0-2 (jaunty), package size 35 kB, installed size 140 kB [07:37] infamousllama: I would use dd to create such an image. You'd need as much space as the partition you're trying to save. [07:37] After 8.04.2 > 8.10 Upgrade I have no longer LAN access! The NetworkManager applet 0.7.0 shows in the lower right an "x" in a red square. dmesg includes a line: "eth0: link up, 100Mbps, full duplex, lpa 0x45E1." How to fix that? My presumption: NetworkManager shuts down the Ethernet controller 8139. What does the dmesg line "[ __report_bad_irq+0x2c/0xa0]" mean? [07:37] ubuntu: just to clarify, everything seems to work until the installer actually starts copying files to your hard drive - correct? [07:37] hi anyone knows how to start yersinia in nubuntu [07:37] But I can't mount the only drive with enough space ( the one that was supposed to get the format), likely because of evms. [07:37] !info multiget | PerryArmstrong [07:37] PerryArmstrong: multiget (source: multiget): graphical download manager. In component universe, is optional. Version 1.2.0-1 (jaunty), package size 419 kB, installed size 1124 kB [07:38] PerryArmstrong: I would try multiget or gwget.. or why not download it as a torrent [07:38] infamousllama: evms -- that's some kind of logical volume system? [07:38] Ubuntu has a curious bug [07:38] Slart; i am going to download jaunty [07:38] mpontillo: [07:38] exact, when the plant begins to pass the 40% he alleges an error of IO and says that the cd or hard drive with this problem [07:38] ubuntu: you also might want to try the "test installation media" option when you boot from the CD. [07:38] does anyone know about this trackerd process? /usr/lib/tracker ? what is it for [07:38] Dunno, actually, but it seems to be causing mount bugs. [07:38] PerryArmstrong: there are torrents available [07:39] It has trouble with "yes" in terminal [07:39] Try this command: ls `yes` [07:39] https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/evms/+bug/153027/comments/2 [07:39] floydwilde: disk content indexing.. for speeding up searches [07:39] Slart; actually i have o idea of what torrents mean [07:39] what programs use it? [07:39] PerryArmstrong: torrents are shared downloads; you help other people get it faster by sharing it [07:39] PerryArmstrong: oh.. hmm.. hang on.. let me see if there is a description somewhere [07:39] is there anyway to re-enable clickable markup in notifications? [07:40] floydwilde: there are some special search tools that use the data from trackerd [07:40] most irc clients will let you do /exec ls `yes` [07:40] try it [07:40] mpontillo: I tried and did not give any errors! for this reason that I think the problem is the hard disk [07:40] floydwilde: I believe that's part of the nautilus search thing [07:40] hi [07:40] ubuntu: sounds like you have it narrowed down. good luck [07:40] Which raises two more problems: Can I safely mount 'around' evms at /dev/evms/sdb1? And can I trust what /dev/sdb1 even means to mount, since that's what got me into this mess? [07:40] oh nautilus, I've been using gnome for a long while now, thinking about installing kde [07:40] Surlent777,Slart; i used bittorrent without actually knowing what it means..but i usually find my downloads fail due to shutdown/hibernate [07:41] after upgrading my system to jaunty from hardy I am getting a laptop screen split in half and display just keeps restarting [07:41] i cannot upgrade to jaunty from intrepid . THe release notes could not be found [07:41] infamousllama: Obviously, I've never heard of evms.... [07:41] does anyone have a workaround plz [07:41] i hate jaunty! [07:41] Ranakah: why? [07:41] Ranakah, Then install XP? :P [07:42] :D [07:42] sorry that was intrepid to jaunty in my case [07:42] or just fix it and appreciate the good things about it [07:42] infamousllama: What does your /etc/fstab look like. Can you pastebin it... [07:42] Heh. Neither had I. Actually, scratch that - I think it prompts you to choose between it and logical volumes or something in the newer installers. [07:42] i instal intrepid back.. better support for ati card, smoth movie play [07:42] has anyone tried apt-p2p? any comments about it? [07:42] and no bugs! [07:42] Hi. Where can I get a list of all official Ubuntu repos and popular third party ones? With descriptions? [07:42] Ranakah: There are ALWAYS bugs, even if you don't see them =P [07:42] i lost 600GB of data because of jaunty [07:42] Sebboh: Synatic perhaps? [07:43] Ranakah, Be patience ;) [07:43] Synaptic* [07:43] Sebboh: Good luck. There are thousands. [07:43] !repo | Sebboh [07:43] I'm not using evms, it's just installed, and I'm loath to reboot lest I loose logs / terminal histories that might help me undo what I've done. [07:43] Sebboh: The packages in Ubuntu are divided into several sections. More information at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories and http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/components - See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RecommendedSources for the recommended way to set up your repositories [07:43] Ranakah: dear God...what'd you do to cause that?! [07:43] infamousllama: That's promising. What does your /etc/fstab look like. Can you pastebin it... [07:43] kfizz, ... nevermind. Something else came up. You type fast. :P [07:43] don't know... :( [07:43] Thanks shadeslayer. [07:43] my home folder disapear [07:44] :> [07:44] Sebboh: Np [07:44] and then i delete partition [07:44] Bye [07:44] oO WEIRD [07:44] Eh, pastebin? It's just got /proc, the main ext3 partition, swap, and a dvd drive. [07:44] Rankah; you mean you didnt backup and instead of upgrading over internet you have installed jaunty?? [07:45] PerryArmstrong yes o:€ [07:45] :> [07:45] infamousllama: pastebin is a web site where you can post text too large to type into irc. http://paste.ubuntu.com [07:45] Rankah; probably no solution [07:45] i just upgrade over internet.. and then shock! [07:45] :> [07:45] Hello [07:45] Ranakah, you deleted your data. All your computer did was hide your icon. ;P Your data was still there, unless you heard your hard drive being very active for an hour or so.. (How long do you think it takes to 'lose' 600gigs?) [07:45] I'm havng a problem with GNOME Eye [07:45] My child, when you saw but one set of footprints in the sand, I was riding on your back, whipping you to go faster. [07:45] hehe it's just a movies :> [07:45] Rankah; so it wasn't a live cd install [07:45] did i win [07:46] but my ati card don't supported :S [07:46] RichadWolfVI: What's your problem? And I assume you mean Eye of Gnome? === danorsk[afk] is now known as danorsk [07:46] kfizz: Yes, images take forever to load [07:46] losher: http://paste.ubuntu.com/161180/ [07:46] does nobody have a solution for me? :s [07:47] RichardWolfVI: Did this just recently start happening? What version of Ubuntu are you using? [07:47] Sheezy: Almost [07:47] Damn [07:47] sven_: whats the problem? [07:47] infamousllama: are you any relation to viciousevilpsychoticwerellama, perhap? [07:47] sven whats the problem [07:47] Firefishe: Not that I know of? [07:47] kfizz: Well, I noticed it for two days already, I'm on Jaunty [07:47] infamousllama: nuff said. thanks. [07:48] RichardWolfVI: And how long have you had Jaunty? [07:48] hi anyone knows sqlinjection tools [07:48] infamousllama: And which is the drive with all the space, /dev/sdb ? [07:48] anyone having problems with emerald in 9.04? [07:48] kfizz: Since the beta, back in early April [07:49] sha [07:49] sha [07:49] That's the other problem: this whole mess started because ubuntu is adressing what should be /dev/sdc (and which testdisk agrees is /dev/sdc) as /dev/sdb [07:49] shadeslayer: I need to installe tftp for windows but I have kubuntu... [07:49] RichardWolfVI: I'm assuming you've tried a restart and that hasn't helped? [07:49] sven linksys router issues? [07:49] kfizz: You're right, I've restarted just an hour ago [07:49] infamousllama: so what happens when you type 'fdisk -l /dev/sdb' ? [07:50] And /dev/sdb, which was the drive I was trying to back up (which is actually an IDE drive), as /dev/sdc [07:50] RichardWolfVI: What version of Eye of Gnome do you have? [07:50] hi [07:50] Anime-Archive #anime-archive @ irc.aniverse.com [07:50] !ftp > sven_ [07:50] sven_, please see my private message === mike is now known as Guest97625 [07:50] is there any x-application to change keyboardlayouts? [07:51] gparted says the drive I want to put the data on is /dev/sdb, so I'm assuming everything that isn't testdisk is using that. [07:51] 2.26 according to Synaptic [07:51] infamousllama: well, the naming is arbitrary, and can change if you add/remove disks. [07:51] infamousllama: so what happens when you type 'fdisk -l /dev/sdb' ? [07:51] ubottu: thats FTP, I need TFTP [07:51] Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) [07:51] shadeslayer if he is fixing a linksys that bricked its a bit differnt [07:51] Guest97625, any good reason you're spamming us with other IRC server info?? [07:51] hi all. is there an apt-get package for php5 that installs php5 with the MySQL module support? [07:51] sven_ for what purpose do you need tftp [07:51] zhanx: Linksys?? he didnt mention that [07:52] shadeslayer its a common reason for it [07:52] kfizz: 2.26 [07:52] zhanx: new firmware on my router... [07:52] zhanx: got it.. [07:52] It actually changed between reboots; fdisk -l claims it "Cannot open" either /dev/sdb or c [07:52] chyea: php5-mysql [07:52] Which is interesting. [07:52] chyea: and it's not quite an apt-get package :P apt-get gets the deb package [07:53] sven_ router type [07:53] infamousllama: try: dmesg | egrep sd [07:53] linksys wrt54g2 v1 [07:53] RichardWolfVI: My EOG about-> help says the version is 2.26.1, so you might want to try and apt-get upgrade, but I doubt that's the major issue. Are you trying to open an image from a directory with a lot of files? [07:53] kfizz: 2.26.1 for mine, my bad [07:53] infamousllama: it's odd for them to change unless you add/remove a disk. Did you? [07:54] kfizz: The directory contains only 60 images [07:54] <^biNuN_giRL^> HI [07:54] sven_ what your trying to put on it openwrt? [07:54] kfizz: plus, even attempting to open it from the terminal results in a huge lag [07:54] zhanx: DD-wrt [07:55] <^biNuN_giRL^> hi [07:55] RichardWolfVI: Just starting the program (not opening any images) presents a lag? [07:55] infamousllama: Er, 'sudo fdisk -l /dev/sdb' [07:55] zhanx: http://www.dd-wrt.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=40142 [07:55] anyone know how to disable the mousewheel workspace switcher? in gnome [07:55] I am wondering if I simply didn't have my headphone cables too close to the PC case (re: random static) [07:55] kfizz: yes [07:55] I shuffled things around to plug everything in, then booted up, drives listed as I expected, then rebooted once. drives not listed as expected. [07:55] sven_ tuffy got the same modem [07:56] er router [07:56] RichardWolfVI: Have you tried completely removing eog and reinstalling? [07:56] Right. Maybe I'm too tired to be doing this safely if I forget a sudo. [07:56] kfizz: will try that [07:56] infamousllama: when you say shuffled, you mean you changed which disks were on which controllers? [07:56] zhanx: how can tuffy help me? ;) [07:57] RichardWolfVI: Though I'm not an expert on eog, there me be a corrupted config file (if it even uses config files) causing the lag, and a complete removal and reinstall might help that. [07:57] infamousllama: that will change which device names are used for which disks. Ubuntu names them as it discovers them.... [07:57] sven_ hold on a sec [07:57] infamousllama: that's good news if it means all you have is a naming problem... [07:57] hello ubuntu [07:58] kfizz: removing it prompts me to remove ubuntu-desktop [07:58] I plugged in an IDE drive where there had been none before, and moved my SATA drives to different plugs, adding on SATA drive; I'm unsure how the BIOS describes the SATA, it's possible they came out exactly the same. [07:58] sven_ gonna link you to the openwrt wiki use that to install the dd image instead of the opentwrt [07:58] Nah, the naming problem already lead to a mis-format. [07:58] hello === mike is now known as Guest49728 [07:58] RichardWolfVI: /las RichardWolf [07:59] er, ignore that [07:59] infamousllama: one thing at a time. Can you run dmesg | egrep sd now? [07:59] And the naming inconsistency cropped up /after/ the disks had been moved, on the second boot after. [07:59] Already did the dmesg grep, nothing since the main partition was booted. [07:59] RichardWolfVI: Hm, hold off on that option then, haha. Wouldn't want to remove your desktop [07:59] RichardWolfVI: i assume you've tried opening eog in/on another directory? [08:00] kfizz: removing ubuntu-desktop only removes the metapackage; nothing gets removed [08:00] zhanx: don't understand the link, im totally noob in this sort of things... [08:00] But sudo did get me fdisk -l ; /dev/sdb1 is what I want to be writing to. [08:00] infamousllama: that's unexpected. Usually there is one entry per disk in dmesg [08:00] raylu: Thanks for that info. Never knew that. [08:00] sven_ you bricked the router right [08:00] There were lots of entries, just no new errors. [08:00] raylu: Of course, even just running eog from the terminal [08:00] Was I looking for specifics on discs? [08:01] RichardWolfVI: does running "eog -c" cause it to load any faster? [08:01] infamousllama: I'm trying to find out what your disks names are, so we can locate your data disk/partition [08:01] RichardWolfVI: this is a far shot, but try: eog -c --g-fatal-warnings [08:01] testing [08:02] Right. From fdisk -l, it looks like /dev/sdb1 is what I want. [08:02] zhanx: no, i want to install dd-wrt on it, its brand new... [08:02] kfizz: Just slightly faster [08:02] it took over 30 seconds [08:02] sven_ use the upgrade function and load the dd-wrt firmware then [08:02] Morning. [08:03] zhanx: thats not possible, my router needs a specific way of upgrading... [08:03] It's wierd that disktools still calls it /dev/sdc (which is also what windows / probably cygwin was calling it via smartcrtl ) [08:03] RichardWolfVI: When eog loads, look in the file menu at the recently viewed images, are any of those particularly large files or files you've deleted recently? [08:03] sven_ k [08:03] I'm willing to risk mounting sdb1, I just don't know if it's safe to do so around evms.

[08:09] kfizz: I mean, I don't recall viewing my images or sharing them over a network [08:09] oops [08:09] The internet leads me to believe this is due to evms hijacking my mounting abilities, as seen here: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/evms/+bug/153027/comments/2 [08:09] when i open the terminal [08:09] Hmmm, good point. I am worried that whatever hijacking it does is doen at boot-time, and that disabling it will force a reboot. [08:09] RichardWolfVI: Okay, because if one of the recent file was an image on another network that wasn't available any longer, I can see it causing a delay trying to access that network.

However, ufw is pretty simple to set up [08:13] PerryArmstrong: oh, ok. don't worry about that. i'll spare you the technical details, but you need a cdburner capable of copying the ISO to a disk. almost all of them are capable of this [08:13] bullgard4: what does uname -a say your kernel is?

[08:18] homeskill: irc from your normal user [08:18] i noticed ubuntu comes with an 'irc' user in /etc/passwd [08:18] vdopeyv: Kinda hard to decode your message. Had the network ever worked correctly? [08:18] raylu, ok, thanks, it seems each partition has its own lost+found. [08:18] homeskill try them all but i use konversation [08:18] homeskill: that's for the ircd server [08:18] yes it worked for 2 months [08:18] I don't appear to have the /dev/evms/sdb mentioned in the other website, but I'll try the ui [08:18] ustun: indeed [08:19] vdopeyv: Can you describe the problem again?

You need to enable backports & proposed in your Intrepid /etc/apt/sources.list === Kernel is now known as Wicked [08:22] HSNews does your bios support it? [08:22] ustun: it's perfectly safe to ignore it, and if you've got stuff in there it's symptomatic of problems that will ruin your whole day [08:22] raylu: OK [08:22] AK_Dave: I do not have LAN nor Internet access. [08:22] will do that [08:22] bullgard4: I knew that was your kernel because you told me you have rtl8139 ethernet and you have the "8139 bug".

[08:35] but no grub there [08:35] vdopeyv: The most common software firewall is ufw..try running "sudo ufw status" [08:35] duryodhan: slackware doesn't have a grub package?

[08:43] I can change stuff, but i cannot save the changes [08:44] fazl, how have you opened the file? [08:44] fazl: because you likely need root permission, hence the 'gksu' [08:44] bullgard4: you should be able to download those debs, load them in your /home, boot to Intrepid, go to terminal, use 'sudo dpkg -i ' and then reboot.

[09:05] AMD has discontinued support of all cards with chipset r500 and lower. If you wish to use these cards, you'll have to use the opensource drivers [09:05] I don't get the point this applet (indicator-applet)... It's a new icon in the panel and the only thing it's doing is poping eye candy notifications when a contact shows up in pidgin... [09:05] quote from the site: The 'fglrx' driver does not support cards earlier than the 9500.

I can't find the old configuration files [09:06] uriel_: i believe you can use the open source radeon driver [09:06] I'm having a problem with my stylus, the right click button does not work. Does anyone know a fix? [09:06] Hey Nobody know how to use phone memory card in ubuntu [09:06] Where can I get it? [09:06] quentin: Right now, only pidgin and evolution have support for indicator-applet, newer versions of ubuntu will have more use of the indicator-applet, if you don't use those applications, or just don't like remove tha applet [09:06] paul68: navigate to the destination folder and use wget? [09:06] paul68, use wget and navigate to the location where you want it saved before you commence downloading of file [09:06] kfizz: http://paste.ubuntu.com/161231/ is that right?

[09:09] vdopeyv: It looks like it's trying to work correctly, just can't connect [09:09] ripps: ok. Actually I'm using evolution, got a new mail and nothing happened, I guess I'll have to look at my config. Anyway, so this applet is not addressing the "evolution hiding in systray" request? [09:09] But Boohbah says there is something I might be able to use so I would like to at least try it ^^ even if its a dirty workaround [09:09] kfizz: http://paste.ubuntu.com/161232/ [09:09] i have a file that is 21235 bytes and i copied it with rsync and rsync said it sent 21306 bytes, even though i'm not making changes to the file. i thought rsync only sends data if there was a change, and then only the amount of data that changed?

[09:10] I know, but I can still download the ATI driver for it [09:10] Mechdave, i set up iTalc-master on edubuntu but it cannot access edubuntu clients (which has italc-client installed automatically). im taling about edubuntu 8.04. im not using thin clients [09:10] bullgard4: You already did that, did you not?

[09:12] Ok let me try that [09:12] and install it [09:12] Mechdave, i also observed that port 5900 is on listening to 0.0.0.0 when i enable roaming in Network Manager, but I want the clients to have fixed IP address [09:12] I'm having a problem with my stylus, the right click button does not work.

Only the latest catalyst driver (9.4) works with Jaunty's xserver, and 9.4 also diable support for r500 and lower cards.

[09:16] ripps: thanks m8 im gonna install the hardware thing [09:16] vdopeyv: There's a problem with your outgoing connection then; it may have something to do with iptables, but I haven't worked with iptables much, so I think at this point you might ask some of these other kind folks to assist you.

[09:18] hey people. I just have a quick question, I am running Jaunty on my laptop. I have a docking station at work with 2 screens plugged into it. One 22" with a res of 1680x1050 and a 17" running 1280x1024. My thing is when I come into work and boot up the 22" is the only one that works and I have to change the refresh rate of the 17". It has 2 available 60hz and 75hz and every morning I have to alternate which it is running. If that makes sense? Does anyone know wh [09:18] y I would have to do that? [09:18] kfizz: it dumps TCP packets, as the name suggests :) [09:18] it gives the government your secrets [09:19] hey all. i just installed ubuntu 9.04 64bit on my laptop. it seems that ath5k does not agree with my wireless card (AR5212), so i installed the closed source madwifi drivers. however, when i run iwlist scan, it reports "No scan results." any ideas? [09:19] Ranakah: Try installing the drivers in the Ubuntu-X PPA, they are supported by the ubuntu devs and you can file bug reports on them: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat/+archive/x-updates/ [09:19] kfizz: thx very much for what you do know... i grew up on a command shell but not linux what a learning curve if you familiar no gui but somthing other than linux heh [09:19] Boohbah: i thought of doing that, but the tutorial i was using asks cd /var/www [09:19] sudo chown -R www-data.svn tracme to do: [09:19] FezK: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. [09:19] vdopeyv: Haha I could have guessed that. But I'd be willing to bet the problem is with your iptables. You could probably find a lot about iptables online, and maybe could get somewhere that way. Networking isn't really my strong suit [09:20] Hey ripps, I have the lastest catalyst 9.4 version how do I go about installing it lol [09:20] When I try sudo sh it says [09:20] uriel_ catalyst 9.4 don't support radeon x800 [09:20] :) [09:20] hi [09:20] Boohbah: i thought of doing that, but the tutorial i was using asks cd /var/www AND sudo chown -R www-data.svn trac [09:20] sh: Can't open ati-driver-installer-9-4-x86.x86_64.run [09:20] ripps [09:20] someone with CLONEZILLA knowing here ?

I'm a CS major, and our comp labs have windows machines, and I often find myself typing Linux commands only for the command prompt to yell at me haha [09:21] kfizz: install cygwin on them ;) [09:21] vdopeyv: True, true. That's what the open source community is all about! [09:21] FezK: add the user faizan to the trac group [09:21] i just upgrade my ubuntu to 9.04 but now it become slow when opening windows and switch between them [09:21] kfizz, lol, I do the same... Xp hates UNIX commands :) [09:21] Boohbah: thanks! ill try that :) [09:22] FezK: err, the svn group [09:22] hii [09:22] So uh [09:22] thursley: I would, but they get re-imaged every night so it gets redundant haha; I have started booting from a USB drive with UBuntu installed though. that's helped [09:22] Swine flu, eh?

[09:28] uriel_: Your card is a r420, that means that the proprietary driver doesn't work with your card anymore, AMD discontinued support. You have to use the opensource radeon driver. Your probably already using it. [09:28] uriel_ 9.4 driver dont work with your card... [09:29] Ok, so where can I get a open source driver for it? [09:30] uriel_: Your probably already using it, type "glxinfo |grep renderer" and tell us what the output is. [09:30] Ok [09:30] Hey everyone, I got another question.

HOW do i change it to UMS mode? [09:33] Ok, yeah I was just wondering because like when I go to download a driver it dirrects me to a 9.4 driver... [09:33] arshad: gnome-system-monitor [09:33] are my iptables correct? http://paste.ubuntu.com/161242/ [09:33] arshad: i think what you want is System Monitor: System->Administration->System Monitor [09:33] Can u tell me how to open my xorg.conf? is it like sudo gedit? [09:33] Does anyone/anybody...know how do we initialise the TAsk MAnger in Ubuntu 8.04 [09:33] ok [09:33] arshad: and, what's a task manager? [09:33] arshad, you can also go to your applications under System and system monitor if you are used to Windows [09:33] lol i was just thinking the same thing gordonjcp [09:33] you have the TAsk MAnger feature in WIndows when u press Cntrl+Alt+Del [09:34] uriel_: AccelDFS will only speed up Flash if your having issues with it, if not, it's best to leave it alone [09:34] How do i change a Device ID? [09:34] arshad: no, I don't know it [09:34] oh he wants a process list like top/htop [09:34] oh [09:34] anyone here familiar with the app/term "screen" [09:34] Ripps is there anyone to say speed up 3d rendering to speed up game performance? [09:34] Mew-Chan: yes [09:34] arshad: Ubuntu isn't windows, but I agree, a task manager should be easier to access. [09:34] hmm is there any kind of gui based app for (h)top? [09:34] snek: yeah [09:35] Device ID change?? Anyone?? [09:35] arshad, snek: probably something like gnome-system-monitor ? [09:35] How do you set 1280x720 mode in 9.04? I'm trying to use it with a projector. [09:35] gordonjcp, yeah that should do for him [09:35] hi everyone [09:35] uriel_: sadly, no. Ther isn't anything you can do about that. Hopefully by next year, the opensource radeon driver will be using a new 3d rendering architecture that should increase performance, but until then your stuck with this. [09:35] have a problem [09:35] ripps: agreed, I always put system monitor on one of my panels [09:36] THank u [09:36] Aight thanks for ur help [09:36] I always map it to alt+shitf+tab [09:36] gordonjcp i've installed screen on a remote computer, i'm trying to make so i can keep irssi running and log back into it after i logout the terminal, how would i do this [09:36] have a card reader and my Jaunty finds it but dunno how to acces it's contents : tifm_core: MemoryStick card detected in socket 0:0 [09:36] arshad: no problem [09:36] hey gents, anyone have some insight on the ATI driver issue?

[09:38] fazl: that makes no sense [09:38] i get a 19d2:2000 when its supposed to be 19d2:0003 [09:38] fazl: then it's been manufactured that way [09:38] anyone know if my iptables are correct? http://paste.ubuntu.com/161242/ [09:38] hi, is there a way to make x apps like xpdf and xfig use better looking fonts in their guis in jaunty? [09:38] I have a question, I have a new installation of 9.04 which works perfectly fine until I take the computer and plug it into a different network switch, then it refuses to connect to the network or obtain an IP address, if I take it back to the original switch it was installed on it works immediately, any advise ? [09:38] vart, i think it should but it's not [09:38] gaelfx: yes, sensors-applet [09:38] sorry 19d2:0002 === c is now known as charitwo [09:38] fazl: you can't change that, it's burnt into the chip at the factory [09:38] bogdan_: is usbmount installed? [09:38] ripps: spiffy, thanks man [09:39] Do i need an anti virus? [09:39] Ok, then is there a way I can tell the OS that it should be treated as the device which whose id is 19d2:0002? [09:39] vart, no [09:39] DracoZA: are you using DHCP? [09:39] vart, should i install it and see what happens [09:39] ciao a tutti [09:39] MagicDuck1, yes I am [09:39] ?

[09:40] never mind, had to find a custom Monitor definition which opened up all the modes. BLAR. [09:40] fazl: yes [09:40] DracoZA: plug into the the one that does not work, open a terminal and run sudo /etc/init.d/network restart [09:40] see what happends [09:40] how do i do that Gordon? [09:40] Appl3Kork: maybe liferea? [09:41] k i'll look into that [09:41] thanks [09:41] hello [09:41] vart, nope not working [09:41] my name is giuseppe [09:41] fazl: not sure, there's probably a config file that lists all the device IDs [09:42] sorry i meant so i can open nzb's? like download [09:42] MagicDuck1, command not found ? [09:42] like alt.binz programs like that [09:42] The USB device is a 3G dongle. I am in the 10-modem.fdi file trying to modify it so it recognizes it, but even though i added the id, it still doesnt seem to recognize it. Does the sequence matter as in "0X2000;0X0001" vs "0X0001;0X2000"? [09:43] Appl3Kork: A forum mentions a program called Pan [09:43] fazl, what is the make and model of your dongle? [09:43] ya see i tried using that, but for some reason it's not working for me [09:43] it is a ZTE MF637 [09:43] i dunno, maybe i did something wrong, I'll just keep trying it [09:43] DracoZA: ups, that should be sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart [09:43] note the *ing [09:43] hmm . i nya 9.04 hur konfar jag om den här nya notifieringssystemet som visar meddelanden från pidgin exempelvis [09:43] my 10-modem.fdi file only goes up to the MF632 :-( [09:44] DracoZA: press tab to invoke auto-completion in terminal, this way you will make sure it's ok [09:44] oops sorry .. should do that in english .. how do i reconfigure the new notifier in ubuntu for pidging for example so it wont pop up the message that ppl write me [09:44] bogdan_: I have no other ideas [09:44] MagicDuck1, ok it said reconfiguring [09:45] aloha [09:45] MagicDuck1, ifconfig shows no IP information for Eth0 [09:46] I am wondering if the is the problem because the MF626, 628, 632 are all HSDPA and mine is an HSUPS ... [09:46] HSUPA*** [09:46] carl-: Just disable "New Messages" in the libnotify preference in pidgin's plugin menu [09:46] ripps, aah .. thanks [09:46] DracoZA: when you run sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart, it does not say anything about getting a new lease, right? [09:47] vart, it's ok, thx for the suggestion :) [09:47] what is the best tool for making an image of the whole disk ??? (already tried Partimage and Clonezilla) [09:47] vart, i'll keep on searching :) [09:47] it may be some errors in configuration file~ [09:47] Anyone know a way to change the default browser for links in pidgin. It isnt in the preferences [09:47] MagicDuck1, nope just says reconfiguring network interfaces [09:47] hansilein: nevere nothing is the best [09:48] Right, so I'm trying to settle something here. [09:48] How do I install ruby 1.9.1 using apt-get? [09:48] random_not_named: is it a livecd ? [09:48] because I cannot install stuff on this pc [09:48] hansilein: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BackupYourSystem [09:49] Hey Mechdave, any ideas on what could be going on with my dongle? [09:49] hey everyone im haveing problems with my ubuntu server box.i just installed it and it doesnt see my network connection there is no ip or anything and i was wondering if someone could help me with this little problem [09:49] thx [09:50] MagicDuck1, nope just says reconfiguring network interfaces [09:50] hansilein: your welcome [09:50] DracoZA: try sudo dhclient eth0 [09:50] Is there any way to downgrade my system to 8.10? [09:50] !downgrade [09:50] Attempting to downgrade to an older Ubuntu version is explicitly not supported, and may break your system. [09:50] uriel_: no, you'll have to reinstall [09:50] Lameeeeee [09:50] =( [09:50] do we have any vlc lover here because i have problem === c is now known as charitwo [09:51] haha, you should put /home on a separate partition when you install so you don't lose all the fun stuff :D [09:51] uriel_: next time, before upgrading download a livecd and see if anything doesn't work anymore. [09:52] well my vlc shows me two separate windows shuch as mplayer with an output video window, how can i make it one? [09:52] any clue? [09:52] fazl, I need to get your model and make of your dongle [09:52] MagicDuck1, no working leases in persistent database, sleeping. Is the message [09:52] I sent it to you [09:52] ubuntistas: hmm, I know it's in the preferences. [09:52] Yeah lol I still have the 8.10 cd that I burned, are you aware of any good* agp cards that are supported in 9.04? [09:52] its is a ZTE MF637 HSUPA [09:53] DracoZA: so the problem is external. It cannot find a nameserver, so it cannot get an ip address [09:53] tell me ripps [09:53] uriel_: probably none, seeing as the drop of cars was to increase focus on fixing bugs for the HD and newer line of cards [09:54] MagicDuck1, if I take that network cable out of that machine and plug it into a machine right next to it, it gets a IP address and everything works fine [09:54] Ok, geuss its back to windows for me Q_Q thanks for ur help [09:54] ubuntistas: I don't have vlc installed at the moment, so I can't help you. [09:54] anyone? [09:54] Hello [09:54] my vlc shows me two separate windows shuch as mplayer with an output video window, how can i make it one? [09:55] DracoZA: aha, then it's the machines MAC address. The switch must be somehow rejecting it. Have you tried rebooting the switch? [09:55] how can I search by date in nautilus?? [09:55] DracoZA: or looking at its config [09:55] Is it safe installing ubuntu on a external harddrive? [09:55] how do I install lower version of postgresql in Jaunty. the default is 8.3 [09:55] MagicDuck1, I can try that but its a brainless little 5 port hub not even a switch [09:55] ubuntistas: According to the VLC forum this is a problem that will be fixed in vlc1.0 [09:56] aha ok thx dude [09:56] Is it safe installing ubuntu to a external harddrive where i keep basically all my games and stuff [09:57] ACANS i dont think games will work on an UBUNTU system... [09:57] MagicDuck1, reset the hub, same thing [09:57] I know, but will it erase them when i go to play them on xp [09:57] Acans: yes, but you will have to install grub on the MBR of your first internal HD [09:58] hello [09:58] my regedit does not have a path [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Wine\Direct3D] even though thread 958680 on ubuntuforums refers to it [09:58] grub? [09:58] who know about ‘USHRT_MAX’ was not declared in this scope ? [09:58] Acans: you will also need unpartitioned space on the drive or user a partition editor to resize and free space [09:58] !grub [09:58] GRUB is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost GRUB after installing Windows? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreGrub - GRUB how-tos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto === futureistyranny is now known as plague [09:58] ciao a tutti === SkG is now known as [SkG] [09:58] !it | wiliamwallace [09:58] DracoZA -> I came in a bit late, can you describe what you have between your host and the dhcp server? what devices? [09:58] wiliamwallace: Vai su #ubuntu-it se vuoi parlare in italiano, in questo canale usiamo solo l'inglese. Grazie! (click col tasto destro sul nome del canale per entrare) [09:59] wiliamwallace: ciao, scottish italian? :) [09:59] my regedit does not have a path [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Wine\Direct3D] even though thread 958680 on ubuntuforums refers to it in a HOWTO [10:00] yo yo yo [10:00] Anybody. . . . How do we open Regedit / REgistry [10:00] DracoZA: the only thing I can think of is the new network applet thingy. It gave me trouble too. Try adding the lines "auto eth0" and "iface eth0 inet dhcp" to /etc/network/interfaces, then kill the applet and do again sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart [10:00] ? [10:00] n8tuser, I installed 9.04 at a different location, network everything works fine. I move the machine to another location where its connected to the lan by a hub and the machine refuses to connect to the same DHCP network. [10:00] hello [10:00] i try to pack /etc [10:00] but it alerts error message [10:00] arshad: do you mean the wine regedit or the registry of windows installed on another partition? [10:00] though i have packed once today [10:00] So it isn't a good idea to install ubuntu on a external hdd [10:01] how can I search for a file using dates in natulus?? [10:01] the registry in Ubuntu [10:01] Acans: its fine to install linux on an external, so long as your bios can boot it [10:01] nautilus [10:01] is it there at all [10:01] ? [10:01] DracoZA -> any other host on that same lan (via that hub) getting a good ip address? [10:01] my regedit does not have a path [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Wine\Direct3D] even though thread 958680 on ubuntuforums refers to it in a HOWTO [10:01] Macfuddy: You probably just create all of that within regedit. [10:01] How can you tell if your bios can boot it? [10:01] arshad: theres gconf-editor which is a registry of sorts but its nowhere near as flimsy as the windows one [10:01] I don't understand [10:01] DracoZA -> also tell us what is acting as dhcp server?

[10:02] THere is a command in Windows that is typed in RUN line gpedit.msc [10:02] hi [10:02] Acans: however, if you have an internal drive, you cna but the boot on that the then load the OS from USB [10:02] you press esc to enter your bios when starting your pc right? [10:02] jigp, one second i have the answer [10:02] do we have that option in UBuntu [10:02] ? [10:02] ?

[10:03] arshad: thats group policy editor, not registry [10:03] sorry [10:03] jigp: you need to install the archive key, it's in WineHQ's ubuntu installation page, with directions [10:03] n8tuser, I cant connect to the net to pastebin [10:03] anyone know how to add content so adsense is on topic, if your webpage is just pictures.

[10:17] anyone having remedy of the low battery life in ubuntu 9/04 [10:17] ??? [10:18] Ububegin: have a seperate partition for /home can help [10:18] DracoZA -> i dont know what to tell you, if it works in the server room and now if you bring it to new location it does not but yet the other host work on same cable [10:18] Ububegin: ubuntu should be able to handle upgrades fine. Almost every program's settings are stored in you home as hidden files and directories [10:18] when i use xrandr -o left the mouse doesn't rotate with the screen, can anyone help me? [10:18] dpkg --force-all -r python-pyinotify breaks too [10:18] why are there two logrotate.config files? one in /etc/logrotate.d/syslog-ng and one in /etc/logrotate.conf ? [10:18] ubuntulog: then when a new release come you can wipe out the old one easily and your data will be unharmed [10:18] I have a topic running here http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1142548 buts its not attracting much help [10:18] hey guys, i notice that my fans get really loud when i step away for a bit. is there a power setting i can tweak? (i don't think the AdminGUI is helping) [10:18] ubuntulog: or just have a regular backup suitable to the changes in your data [10:19] good luck not getting any here either [10:19] DracoZA: did you try removing the default config from System->Preferences->Network Connection and adding again a simple dhcp one without the MAC address specified. Maybe it works. [10:19] n8tuser, exactly it makes no sense, I am going to take it back to the server room again now [10:19] DracoZA -> you can try adding an eth0 entry in your /etc/network/interfaces file and then do a sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart [10:19] ripps: so I can just go ahead and keep my data anywhere i please and install stuff from the source ... and upgrades would still be breeze [10:19] ActionParsnip1, same thing in dmesg: tifm_core: MemoryStick card detected in socket 0:0 [10:19] shambat: aptitude why syslog-ng [10:19] bogdan_: ok now you have something, go see what it means [10:19] haw can i restart the xserver in ubuntu 9.04? [10:19] shambat: i'm on a relatively clean install and i don't have syslog-ng installed [10:20] Ububegin: yeah, I personally keep all my source files in a build directroy in my home [10:20] Bineagle: logging out should do it. also, [10:20] !dontzap | Bineagle [10:20] Bineagle: 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. [10:20] Bineagle: and finally, sudo invoke-rc.d gdm restart [10:20] hey guys, i notice that my fans get really loud when i step away for a bit. is there a power setting i can tweak? (i don't think the AdminGUI is helping) [10:20] ripps: so I should just install stuff or keep data in home directory.. And I am fine [10:21] ActionParsnip1, that's what i had in the first place :) [10:21] ActionParsnip1, ok i'll do a search on that :) [10:21] ActionParsnip1, thx [10:21] peacewise: what have you tried so far for battery life? [10:22] Ububegin: but keep in mind, thinks you install manually from source are probably being installed in /usr/local/, you might have to manually delete programs and stuff from there if you aren't careful. If want your local stuff to be easily removable, try using checkinstall to install the software, it automatically creates a simple debian package. [10:22] Hello, can someone tell me a way of inputting a command in the terminal to simply go through a directory (recursively, as in other folders in it) find any .wmv's and copy them all somewere? i was thinking something like "find -type f -name ‘*.wmv’ " then something i think, i have no idea xD lol [10:22] thx Action-parsnip [10:22] gh0st: find . -name *.wmv -exec cp {} ~/temp \; [10:23] gh0st: the ~/temp folder will need creating and will be the place to store the files [10:23] how can I rotate my screen? [10:23] gh0st: also if the file is named *.WMV it will NOT be found [10:23] Thanks a million ActionParsnip [10:23] ripps: checkInstall -- > something new.... Thanks ,dude... Will follow ur layout... [10:23] ripps : how to install skype? I use 2007 ? im in ubuntu 8.04 [10:23] gh0st: theres a way to find both [10:23] ActionParsnip1: nice command-fu there [10:24] go on lol [10:24] ripps: i use cli all the time [10:24] jigp: Oh, i thought you were using jaunty, hold on a sec. [10:24] jigp: http://technical-itch.co.uk/2007/09/18/how-to-install-skype-on-ubuntu/ [10:25] n8tuser, MagicDuck1 I have taken that machine back to the server room and its connected to the network and internet DHCP [10:25] ActionParsnip1, find . -name "*.wmv" # the pattern needs to be quoted to stop bash from expanding filenames in the current directory [10:25] ripps : im using 8.04 . and also google. I successfully installed skype before but when I use kde from gnome, skype gone..so now im in trouble [10:25] ActionParsnip1: as a note, not quoting the *.wmv will make bash interpret it as all the files with a .wmv extension in the current directory if there are any [10:25] DracoZA -> now paste the results of sudo lshw -C network; route -n [10:25] what unop said. [10:25] ciao [10:26] unop: bah, thats good too, do you know the stuff to find WMV as well as wmv [10:26] ActionParsnip1: -iname [10:26] !lista [10:26] Sorry, I don't know anything about lista [10:26] raylu: ahhhh nice [10:26] DracoZA -> and lets compare this to the new location, same commands [10:26] unop: also, find assumes . [10:26] 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??? [10:26] ActionParsnip1, -iname [10:26] raylu: i though it was gonna be some *.[wmv|WMV] [10:26] ActionParsnip1, find . -iname "*.wmv" [10:27] gh0st: ok so the thing is: mkdir ~/wmvs; find . -iname "*.wmv" -exec cp {} ~/wmvs \; [10:27] * ActionParsnip1 has learned today [10:28] Hey, a little offtopic, but since there appears to be some pros in the room, i've been playing around with the new "notify-send" commands and was wondering were i could get some more in depth info like for programming, i want to eventually merge some twitter stuff ive been working on with the API [10:28] allready executed :) [10:28] gh0st: you can even change te exec command to convertthem to ogg if you have the know how [10:28] ActionParsnip1, hmm, i wouldn't do that .. cp would overwrite duplicate files in ~/wmvs if there are any [10:28] unop: o gahhhh [10:29] unop: can you help please [10:29] http://oltrechan.oltreirc.net/index.php?q=Alarm+For+Cobra+11+Crash+Time# [10:29] !irchelp [10:29] Sorry, I don't know anything about irchelp [10:29] unop: well at least its only a cp and not a mv, no data destruction === ROSHA is now known as RoozbehOnline [10:30] ActionParsnip1, I would keep the relative directory structure in ~/wmvs. find . -iname "*.wmv" | (cd ~/wmvs && cpio -pdumv) [10:30] you could copy the entire directory with cp -r and then remove anything that isn't a wmv [10:31] how do I get sudo permission to perform an action (ie, replacing a file) without doing so from the command line? [10:31] n8tuser, http://paste.ubuntu.com/161274/ [10:31] raylu, that's expensive .. [10:31] is there already an fix for the horrible intel/compiz performance ? [10:31] how can i find out why there's no tkined package in ubuntu? [10:31] Canaen, you want gksudo nautlius ? [10:31] Canaen: you can run graphical apps with gksudo [10:31] Hey, a little offtopic, but since there appears to be some pros in the room, i've been playing around with the new "notify-send" commands and was wondering were i could get some more in depth info like for programming, i want to eventually merge some twitter stuff ive been working on with the API [10:31] actionparsnip1: gksudo? [10:32] dewd: try installing the ubuntu-x drivers and check back: https://edge.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat/+archive/x-updates/ [10:32] hey guys, i notice that my fans get really loud when i step away for a bit. is there a power setting i can tweak? (i don't think the AdminGUI is helping) [10:32] Canaen: it gives graphical apps like nautilus and gedit, sudo powers [10:32] DracoZA -> and lets compare this to the new location, same commands..you may have to do an sudo ifdown eth0; sudot ifup eth0 [10:32] hah! [10:32] sweeeet [10:32] Canaen: if you see a guide that says sudo gedit, it is WRONG [10:32] is it possible that pulse audio makes my system hang? what would be the best way to find out? [10:32] So no help i guess with sound issue. Some people would just like to use a computer and do things, instead of spending my whole time trying to make things work. So far my experience with linux has ben 2 months of picking a distro only to find none of them work completely. Now I have spent the last 2 weeks just trying to get the basics going. [10:32] gh0st: Gnome-do uses the notify system with twitter. You can tweet from it too [10:32] unop: indeed. [10:33] c0p3rn1c, what do think it's related to pulseaudio ? [10:33] n8tuser, you want me to take it back to the other location and get the same output ? [10:33] if i remove cupsys, will i still be able to print? [10:34] actionparsnip1: thank you! that was just what I needed. gksudo! [10:34] joaopinto: since I recently changed my default audio device to pulse [10:34] DracoZA -> yes [10:34] dayo, probably not with cups [10:34] dayo: probably not [10:34] n8tuser, ok gimme 2 minutes [10:34] jsphillips, thanks for the suggestion, but im interested in coding my own, its a very specific application using moduals that ive allready written. maybe some source code? the notify-send manpages dont really provide alot of info [10:34] joaopinto: ripps: i'm trying to remove print capabilities from a system. is there anything else i need to remove? [10:34] gh0st, do you want to use the new notify-osd system ? [10:35] gh0st: notify-send uses the libnotify library, look up docs on that. [10:35] libnotify, thanks [10:36] dayo, there should be an easier way to do it, like removing reading permissions on /etc/cups/ or something like that [10:36] hmmm gparted is taking all night to move a ntfs partition, and it's still far from finished === jamie is now known as Guest4962 [10:36] ripps: how do I add the key for this repo ? [10:36] joaopinto: ok, thanks [10:36] dewd: sudo apt-key adv --recv-keys --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com AF1CDFA9 [10:37] have anybody knows good gui program for data recovery [10:37] guis are so prevalent that someone has asked for a gui to perform data recovery... [10:37] 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??? [10:37] I'm trying to upgrade packages in Ubuntu, but there's an update that is being "kept back." Can I install that update somehow? [10:38] acecombat, you will need to google on how to customize an ubuntu live cd, is not something trivial to do [10:38] ok [10:38] acecombat: you probably can't, you should bring up with the ubuntu devs or file a bug [10:38] Where located list of resources? [10:38] !ru | HSNews [10:38] HSNews: Пожалуйста посетите #ubuntu-ru для получения помощи на русском языке / Pozhalujsta posetite #ubuntu-ru dlya polucheniya pomoshi na russkom yazyke [10:39] so i can or i cant? [10:39] my mouse is in /dev/input/js0, how to change it= [10:39] acecombat: I don't know of any, but someone else might, google is your friend [10:40] google is your friend but Ubuntu is not [10:40] for some reason when i try to compile PAN, it always give me an error [10:40] in fact, lots of time i can never compile it [10:41] Hello, what's the offtopic address again? [10:41] or do the 'make' command in terminal [10:41] ripps: I've safe-upgraded now would be a good time to restart X or should I do something first ? [10:41] Nirrad1st: Hey hey! Ubuntu is the friendliest Linux OS there is. [10:42] dewd: yes, x retstart would be required, if not an entire reboot [10:42] Is it #ubuntu-offtopic [10:42] why does CTRL+C break NOT work in ubuntu 9.04? [10:42] right i have been here for awhile posted a couple of times . no answer. I guess that could be considered friendly in some circles [10:42] st_: what are you trying to do? [10:42] anyone know? [10:43] ripps: if i like cat /dev/input/js0 [10:43] i cant get out of it with CTRL-C [10:43] st_: understand that programs can catch and block SIGINT [10:43] st_: Hmmm.... ctrl+c works fine for me, maybe there's something up with your keyboard? [10:43] finally fixed my annoying "WPA protected wifi constantly asking for password but password it saves is a long hex string" problem, by upgrading my routers firmware giving it WPA-2 functions. So seems network manager was wanting wpa2 and not wpa1, even tho it was set for both. [10:43] n8tuser, http://paste.ubuntu.com/161283/ [10:44] st_: also, you might interrupt it but it might still be writing the output to your screen buffer [10:44] st_: it being your terminal [10:44] no its not that [10:44] Appl3Kork: you probablly don't have development dependencies installed to compile the software. Try "sudo apt-get build-deps pan" before compiling. [10:44] raylu: i just need to re-enable ctrl-c [10:45] ctrl-z is annoying [10:45] st_: ctrl+z isn't the same thing [10:45] i know, but it works =D [10:45] st_: what terminal are you using? [10:45] gnome-term [10:45] st_: does it work in xterm? [10:45] DracoZA -> and doing a sudo ifdown eth0; sudo ifup eth0 then check if you get an ip address [10:46] n8tuser: dhclient is sufficient for that [10:46] raylu: yes [10:46] so its in gnome-term confs [10:46] ripps: I'ts saying could not get lock /var/lib/dpkg/lock when i do apt for the build-deps [10:46] how do I get keycodes? [10:46] raylu no it does not, we need to find out if it clears up any other cache [10:46] Appl3Kork: that means you have a package installer already running, did you forget to close synaptic or something? [10:47] oh yup [10:47] raylu: i had Ctrl-c as COPY in gnome-term settings [10:47] fixed now, thanks [10:47] ripps: no improvement :-( [10:47] couldn't find build-deps [10:47] hello [10:47] binarymutant, xev [10:48] ? [10:48] anyone have a problem with the new 9.04 cd [10:48] mine always freezes after 2 seconds [10:48] Appl3Kork, apt-get build-dep something # not build-deps [10:48] but i know it works because it works on another computer [10:48] any ideas? [10:48] unop, ty [10:48] n8tuser, brb with that [10:48] omg why does the stupid kde wants to run fucking kmail over and over again after I kill it wtf [10:48] dewd: There is a method to install unofficial packages and a kernel that might fix it, but the ubuntu devs have strongly discouraged it, instead try downgrading instead: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ReinhardTartler/X/RevertingIntelDriverTo2.4 [10:48] gustav check your hardware [10:48] binarymutant: also useful is xmodmap --help's description of -pk and -pke [10:48] but what should i check [10:48] dewd, easy with the language [10:48] i'm new to this hah [10:49] dewd dont be a dork no need to swear [10:49] Hi guys! everytime i do a: "sudo chown -R svn.svn svn" I get svn avg 4096 2009-04-30 13:47 svn using "ls -l" [10:49] any ideas whats wrong? [10:49] k finally got it working [10:49] gustav run a memory check [10:49] alright [10:49] FezK: svn:svn [10:49] FezK: not svn.svn [10:49] raylu, both work .. [10:49] oh =\ [10:49] gustav might even be the cd drive on your system [10:49] ripps: k so downgrade it is is there any timeframe for an permanent solution ? [10:49] FezK, do you get any errors running chown there? [10:50] raylu: oh... ill try that [10:50] unop: no, no errors at all! :s [10:50] hmmm how long do these usually take? [10:50] dewd: I've talked personally with an ubuntu dev, and all they'll say is their working on it. [10:50] idk about that, the 8.04 cd works fine [10:50] comment [10:51] the 9.04 one is the only linux cd that does this [10:51] Hi! [10:51] dewd: *hint* if you poke around the ubuntu-x teams pages, you might find a PPA for testing issues with intel cards. [10:51] It is /italics/ and underlined [10:51] ripps: ok.. so without swearing.. why would my kmail keep starting up it is driving me crazy !! [10:52] has anyone managed to improve battery life in 9.04? Im only getting about 2 hrs [10:52] dewd: well, I don't use kde, so I'm not quite sure. [10:52] dewd, ask the folk in #kubuntu - they should know how to stop it starting up [10:52] dewd, look on laucnhpad.net for such a bug report, if you can't find it, report it [10:52] I upgraded to Jaunty this week. Afterwards I updated to Firefox 3.0.10 and now when I open FF I have no bookmarks, nor can I add any. I also can't go back or forward or refresh. [10:53] hmm [10:53] gustav: forever! lol [10:53] k I will look around it's super annoying I quit it and it starts it immediately [10:53] thanks guys [10:53] i treid making a bootable USB [10:53] didnt change anything [10:53] still doesnt work [10:53] it gets to the loading screen [10:53] GustavTheLion: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. [10:53] then freezes [10:53] so the cd drive cant be the problem [10:54] don't anger the floodbot [10:54] anybody having problems with FF 3.0.10? [10:54] hah sorry, i'll try not to [10:54] yes [10:54] IVe had a few pc's that are just a little picky about what they boot. - cd will work on the other 5 machines but not this one.. same with a USB-boot-installer-thumbdrive. [10:54] I can't download it [10:54] unop: errors when i use svn:svn [10:54] I have added a game to my Applications -> Games menu in 8.10, but it doesn't have the correct icon. I have a png of the icon, but I don't know how to add it as the icon for the program. The game is called Singularity, and an older version, where you can see the icon, is in the repos.

[10:56] its an ATI Mobility Radeon X1800 [10:56] dr_willis: I tried, but the directory that contains the icon in .png format is considered empty by the browser that the button opens [10:56] malik__: you would have to tweak the bash-completion scripts/settings it seems. [10:57] $OLDPWD = $653793 [10:57] unop: seems like im gonna have to restart my pc, in anger i deleted the user svn :s and now i cant re-add without restarting :( [10:57] DracoZA -> you have to try and add an entry for eth0 on /etc/network/interfaces then do that ifdown/ifup thing [10:57] veovis: it seems to want xpm, convert the png to xpm. [10:57] thing is 8.04 worked, i figured that 9.04 would support more hardware if anything [10:57] 404 Not Found [10:57] !convert [10:57] Sorry, I don't know anything about convert [10:57] shouldn't this be reported as a bug ?

[11:08] i thought of dist-upgrade but [11:08] hi, I've a problem with installing 9.04( Grub can't be installed, fatal error) [11:08] phillip41: using a real physical hard drive for virtualbox to read/access. can be a challange/probmelatic [11:08] jigp: you can configure which programs get access to the net [11:09] ok dr_willis === zhangone is now known as zhang1 [11:09] zykes-: in softwater sources->updates, specify that you want to upgrade only to Long-term support releases, that would be hardy. [11:09] i have no real idea about ubuntu sorry [11:09] phillip41: we learn something new evveryday [11:09] shadeslayer: real time? with http/https report of which websites users visit?and bandwidth or how much bandwidth user used? [11:10] typos everywhere [11:10] yeah hope so [11:10] ripps: no gui [11:10] shadeslayer : I don't like webgui though...more on less resources [11:10] how much memory would you reccomend for a virtual drive [11:10] just alter sources i guess ? [11:10] jigp: its a GUI for the inbuilt firewall, [11:10] phillip41: a vurtial drive takes up drive space.. not memory. [11:10] phillip41: and the size of the VirtualDrive depends on wha tyou want to put on it. [11:11] where to install a custom package from sources to? (I would avoid a mess with the official ubuntu package when it later appears) [11:11] sun virtualbox is asking how much base memory [11:11] phillip41: your RAM [11:11] yeah how much should i put my laptop has 4 gig ram [11:11] phillip41: basically how much RAM for your virtual device [11:12] phillip41: anything between 512 MB to 1.5 GB would be fine [11:12] greetings [11:12] clear [11:12] Does anyone know how I can use my laptop as a second monitor? It's an Acer, and my main PC has a Nvidia card. [11:12] \quit [11:12] shadeslayer: yup but its not a monitoring like bandwidth monitoring [11:12] pre-up iptables-restore doesn't work for me. How can I troubleshoot? [11:12] fixed size or dynamically expanding [11:13] I'm trying to follow this guide https://help.ubuntu.com/6.10/ubuntu/installation-guide/i386/linux-upgrade.html , but the problem is that I can't create my filesystem since it is already mounted by the currently running OS [11:13] jigp: no i dont think it would monitor bandwidth,dunno what would [11:13] shadeslayer: im trying to avoid webgui. [11:13] permissions on cd drive are denied on every application I've been using. I'd wanted to burn an ISO file but now I've got a couple new coasters [11:13] jigp: its not webgui [11:13] when computer boots I don't have iptables loaded, but If I then execute pre-up iptables-restore < /etc/iptables.rules then it loads them [11:13] # [11:13] phillip41: #vbox [11:13] how to troubleshoot? [11:13] whats that shadeslayer [11:13] shadeslayer: yes it is. $gufw ..and it appears like an ico [11:13] shadeslayer: yes it is. $gufw ..and it appears like an icon [11:14] jigp: oh you mean you specifically want CLI ? [11:14] shadeslayer: yes. I don't like webgui. im more in CLI [11:14] shadeslayer: less resources [11:14] jonnymac: if it couldent even try to burn.. then they shouldnet be coasters.. unless it failed during the burn.. (which would be odd) [11:15] jigp: see if ufw -h has what you want [11:16] did somebody have problem with grub installation on jaunty? [11:16] sea-gull: yeah,there was a guy who had a problem 5 hrs ago [11:16] can anyone help me setting up apache server? i have problems! [11:16] hi guys i have ubuntu 9.04 with 2.6.27-11 kernel....i nedd to install also headers for this kernel but synaptic doesn't find it...how can i do? [11:17] just need to find my windows vista disc now [11:17] shadeslayer: what can I do? [11:17] sea-gull: dont know,keep asking,or ask in #grub [11:18] babio: why are you using an Intrepid kernel in Jaunty? [11:18] sea-gull: or install without installing GRUB and install grub from CLI [11:18] using [11:18] i don't know i have made the upgrade routine [11:18] !grub > sea-gull [11:18] sea-gull, please see my private message [11:19] babio: you should be using 2.6.28 kernels [11:19] what can i do to fix it? [11:19] hey guys. i'm trying to forward some devices from a different computer onto my computer. i'm trying to use sshfs to mount remote-comp:/dev somewhere on the local filesystem. although mounting works and the remote devices show up in my local filesystem, i can't actually access any of the remote devices due to permission errors. any thoughts, anyone? [11:20] schigh: just a thought,but did you enable sharing on the device? [11:20] i have also tried to install 2.6.28 kernel following ubuntu comunity doc but recieve a problem also on this....could you help me [11:20] ? [11:20] Is there a way to start GnomeDo's "docky" faster? GnomeDo itself shows up almost instantly upon login, but the docky interface takes a good 10-15 seconds to start up. === anomie is now known as Guest86973 [11:21] babio: your grub is probably still setup to boot your old kernel, try playing around with startup-manager to fix that [11:21] shadeslayer: what do you mean? [11:22] babio: also, use computer janitor to clean out those old kernels === shadesla1er is now known as shadeslayer [11:22] babio: just make sure you have linux-image-generic installed, linux-headers-generic would be the headers to go with them [11:23] can you telle me what i have to do??? i'm not so able with linux....newbie here!!! :D [11:23] babio: "sudo apt-get install linux-image-generic linux-headers-generic" just to be safe [11:23] babio: ^ in a terminal [11:24] 0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded === Mechdave is now known as Mech_away [11:25] babio: okay, then it's probably safe to remove those old kernels, goto System->Administration->Computer Janitor" [11:25] Failed to run computer-janitor-gtk as user root.

[11:25] ther is a attack on the royal familie of holland [11:26] i recieve this when launch janitor [11:26] !ot > RICARDO38 [11:26] RICARDO38, please see my private message [11:26] babio: hmmm.... let me go do some research on this, you should be getting a password prompt. [11:26] ub this is importent you fucking imbiciel [11:27] * shadeslayer ignores [11:27] How do I reload fonts so my system recognizes newly installed ones? (jEdit won't find my terminus fonts for some reason, though other apps can) [11:27] shadeslayer: what do you mean? [11:27] schigh: what?? [11:28] shadeslayer: when you said enable sharing on the device? [11:28] babio: it seems that you get this because your account doesn't have administrative rights. [11:28] and how could i fix that? [11:28] babio: are you the only user of this computer, or did someone else install it? [11:29] i'm the only one [11:29] schigh: i meant is the device shared on the network,maybe thats why its triggering that === EchoMirage is now known as echo_mirage [11:29] shadeslayer: i dont' know how to share devices on the network (so no, its not shared) [11:30] schigh: so the device is on another PC right?? [11:30] hello [11:30] schigh: yup [11:30] shadeslayer: yup. [11:30] schigh: you have to right click and go to the sharing tab [11:30] any help with upuntu [11:30] babio: my only guess is that this is a botched installation. If you don't have any access to root, then there's no way to give it to you. Just to be sure trying running 'sudo lsb_release -a' and see if your admin password works [11:31] pls [11:31] schigh: this may or may not be the cause,just a guess [11:31] !hi | saeed [11:31] saeed: Hi!

[11:38] shadeslayer: that's what I'm thinking. [11:39] Dday: or drag and drop in nautilus.. if it says something about privilegies type in terminal gksudo nautilus [11:39] Okay cheers [11:39] GUYS IS FGLRX FIXED YET? [11:40] creative1412: no need to shout [11:40] and no [11:40] creative1412, fglrx is not broken in general [11:41] shadeslayer: : as from catalist drivers 9.4 xorg 1.6 is suported, or am i wrong? [11:41] babio: I don't know, I don't have alot of experience with these kind of botched upgrades... sorry [11:41] thank you... :D [11:41] Hey... Guyz.. i have installed ubuntu JJ on Asus Laptop but i faced a problem with sound card as it doesn't disconnect the speakers when i plug a head phone anyone knows what to do ? [11:41] creative1412: what's your video card? "lspci |grep VGA" [11:41] supersasho: yeah it is [11:42] 01:05.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc Radeon 2100 [11:42] ripps: 01:05.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc Radeon 2100 [11:42] my notify-osd is still out of sync :( [11:42] <[radithz]> I am looking for gyach 1.1.61 source version [11:42] <[radithz]> anyone pls help me [11:42] creative1412: new drivers catalist 9.3 and newer doesnt support radeons older then r6xx :( [11:43] shadeslayer: im not satisfied with ufh thing [11:43] :'( i know and radeon sucks! [11:43] wanna downgrade to 8.10 [11:43] <[radithz]> i got new version from Linux mint source [11:43] <[radithz]> i got new version from Linux mint [11:43] creative1412: ya we should have a downgrade tool [11:44] creative1412: don't won't fix that, they've dropped support. Only the opensource community loves you enough to give you a driver [11:44] creative1412: so you have 2 choices II8.10 xorg 1.5 and catalyst < 9.3 or JJ9.04 and Opensource drivers [11:44] creative1412, it was ATI dropping support for those cards, do not expect to be fixed unless you ask ATI to do so.... [11:44] that's it! iam Buying a nVIDIA [11:44] so which driver supports r600 and has 3d support? [11:45] creative1412: that's also a sollution :) [11:45] jigp: no idea then,you could search synaptic [11:45] 9600 GT is fine? [11:45] ya its super [11:45] creative1412: dont go for the 8XXX series [11:45] indus: at this point, I believe all three do, but fglrx has the best performance probably [11:45] any one knows how to fix the sound card problem.... ?! [11:45] indus: in *buntu 9.04 its the 9.4 catalyst driver [11:45] !sound | mrb__ [11:45] mrb__: 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 [11:45] 9.4 supports r 600? [11:46] indus: as far as i know, yes [11:46] 600 EGP =100$ does 9600 worth 100$? [11:46] creative1412: then whats the problem? [11:46] indus: catalyst 9.4 should support up to r770 [11:46] wokay so all seems well with ati? [11:46] i tried them out.. the sound card is working...but when i plug the headphone.. the speakers keeps working [11:46] it doesn't disconnect [11:46] indus: as long as you have an r600 or above [11:47] but ATI 4770 its good i hear [11:47] newly launched 40 nm die [11:47] anybody know how can i make dial up on ubuntu [11:47] indus: I believe that should work with fglrx, yes. [11:47] ? [11:47] I'm doing a sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg via ssh and its not giiving me video card options. How can I force it? My x display is currently flickering itself into oblivion [11:47] i am going now to get 9600 gt and am not kidding! ATI SUCKS! [11:47] Scofield: which version of ubuntu? [11:47] is there a way to take advantage of two NIC cards and two separate internet connections to combine them and basically double my bandwidth? [11:48] 9.04 [11:48] !dialup > Scofield [11:48] Scofield, please see my private message [11:48] azlon: i dont thinik thats possible but it would be nice [11:48] azlon, not particularly [11:48] there are ways you can do it, in theory, if you have an endpoint on the Internet somewhere (using bonding), but the overheads are quite severe [11:48] indus: http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=article&item=amd_catalyst_94&num=1 [11:49] azlon, you could set specific routings per hosts, however it would be a nightmare to manage [11:49] is there some special equipment that would combine the two connections? I don't think a typical router would do it... [11:49] i installed a driver but not work it always writing "Sending Password ..." [11:49] azlon: NO there is no such equipment or i have never heard of it [11:49] cupsdAuthorize: Local authentication certificate not found! is stopping me printing to a network printer [11:49] creative1412: That maybe so, but ATI is giving away more chipset docs than nvidia to opensource, and because of that the radeon driver will be one of the first to feature gallium3d support [11:50] ripps: gallium etc all theory isnt it/ [11:50] indus: at the moment, but it has alot of potential [11:50] good in theory but the fact is nvidia makes working drivers :) [11:50] joaopinto: would it be possible to have all of my torrents on one connection and everything else on the other? I have free internet in my building but it is unreliable. I also have a HSDPA connection that has a limited bandwidth every month... [11:51] indus: yeah, but nouvou is proabably catching up to them. [11:51] ok ill go with you on that one but the open drivers seem to be taking painfully long to catch up [11:51] I don't really care if the torrents stop because they will resume when the building internet is back up... but I also don't want to use all of my monthly bandwidth in a day with torrents [11:51] ripps: no nouvou is still on 2d only [11:51] Hiya. I'm running Jauny, but all of a sudden when I click on any of my non linux drives to mount them, nothing happens. It worked fine until tiday. I don't get an error message or anything so I don't know how to troubleshoot. Will there be a log file or something somewhere? Cheers. [11:52] indus: that's because their focusing all their 3d code into gallium [11:52] They show up in the list in the "Computer" icon. [11:52] #kubuntu [11:52] i try sudo apt-get install vmware it give me (udo apt-get install vmware ) :( [11:52] ripps: isnt nouvoue for nvidia? [11:52] indus: yes [11:52] rolo: yeah,my drives open but it takes up an awfully long time for the authorization dialouge to come up [11:52] ripps: iam talking about ATI drivers [11:52] still far off the mark?

[11:53] hi all [11:53] indus: i was too, but thatn was talking to creative1412 about ati releasing chip docs, when he was saying nvidia was superior... and well the conversation deviated from there [11:53] yah [11:53] shadeslaer: cheers. mine are defintely broken though. have wwaited minutes. [11:53] terminal [11:54] ripps: ok i know [11:54] azlon, I guess for that specific case yes, you could setup a fireweall rule to drive your bt traffic to a specific gateway [11:54] indus: i have a jaunty update question [11:54] and use the other connection as your default gw [11:54] can i opean privte chat here ? with u [11:54] is there somewhere I can see a log file? Or some commnad line I can use to do the game thign so I see the error? [11:54] indus: you asking yourself? [11:54] lol [11:54] ripps: [11:54] hi [11:54] anyone [11:54] !ask [11:54] Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line, so others can read and follow it easily).

Im new to ubuntu and need guidance in: 1- Finding out in which partition the ubuntu im using now is on. And how to delete the ubuntu partition im NOT on. To so merge it to my Vista partition... [12:06] for a device you don't have plugged in all the time mattycoze you'll probably have to either work around it or discover how to restart network manager at the desktop [12:06] EYZA [12:06] daftykins, actually on 8.10 you could just plug a device after boot, and NM would normally recognized it [12:07] Hi, some help to install enutv-2 in ubuntu 9.04? [12:07] daftykins, ahh; i don't get it; this didn't happen in the previous distro [12:07] yeah joaopinto's right :) [12:07] that's what i expected joaopinto but it sounds like it doesn't like it [12:07] and on jaunty, it also identifies when I plug my 3G PCMCIA card, however it does not setup it properly, as it did on intrepid [12:07] daftykins, right, but that is not a feature, it's a bug ;) [12:07] !bug [12:07] 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 [12:07] BurningSebra: you probably want to use the Partition Editor (install it with sudo apt-get install gparted) [12:07] so ... yeah :) [12:08] ziroday: but in my case, they are not. when i run iwconfig, it shows me lo eth0 and irda0 with "no wireless extensions" written next to the 3 [12:08] creator-cdsc: okay, give me 30 secs :) [12:08] Only issue I had with Jaunty was is not getting my resolutions right for my monitor but I had it on a KVM [12:08] yeah can't blame it for that. most KVMs are quite bad for that [12:08] Yeah [12:08] creator-cdsc: also can you pastebin lsmod please [12:09] wondering if there is a DVI kvm [12:09] I could upgrade [12:09] BurningSebra, i don't think i would recommend remerging a partition with a Vista partition [12:09] yep found some [12:09] ziroday: http://mibbit.com/pb/dY750y [12:09] hey, i've install 9.04 and catalyst 9.4 but now my whole system is a mess! :( if i boot up i only get garbage on the X screen and everything is frozen. what can i do to fix this? [12:10] Anyone know anything about the stars plugin for compiz? Is there a working version for 9.04? === busta is now known as netop [12:10] how can i turn iso to .img so i can boot it via usb [12:10] sint check your xorg.conf for any ATI driver configuration and remove it, so it only runs with the VESA driver or some such [12:10] How do I remove the password from my ubuntu keyring? I'm promted to enter it when the machine start up and attempts to logon to the network, which is annoying. Is there a better approach than to disable keyring? E.g. grant NetworkManager access to keyring at all times? Hm, thanks, I'll look into it right away... [12:11] creator-cdsc: hmm, the drivers are loaded. Can you do sudo rmmod ipw2200 and then sudo modprobe ipw2200 and then pastebin the output of dmesg | tail -50 please [12:11] ziroday: i already got it, but i dont get it to do what i want. i got a image if you care to look. http://img259.imageshack.us/img259/1585/gparted1.jpg [12:11] demon_, look into unetbootin for USB key booting from a pre-existing ISO [12:11] I'm looking for a way to remove *all* config files from my system for an application after I uninstall it, does anyone know a way to do this? [12:11] traskbt, sudo apt-get purge package (but it needs to be installed) [12:11] pre-up command in /etc/network/interface doesn't work for me. how to troubleshoot? [12:11] daftykins: my xorg.conf only contains random stuff. nothing really important, but sections with identifier. thats all [12:12] problem is that pre-up iptables-restore doesn't restore iptables configuration :( [12:12] ok sint in your Device section define a variable called "Driver" and set it to "vesa" and try starting X [12:12] soz my net dropped out; jaopinto is there a bug report already out? [12:12] BurningSebra: okay, sda5 and sda6 have no use [12:12] joaopinto, that will remove files like ~/.app_config and ~/.config/app/conf2 and whatever else there might be? [12:12] daftykins, i looked and i tried but nothing! it makes only a lil sys file on my usb [12:12] (Re; the network manager app issue with USB 3G modems) [12:12] you may need to RTM demon_ [12:13] ziroday: mind guiding me on this gparted program?

[12:14] (I wasn't trying to be rude, just trying to help demon_ find it) [12:14] BurningSebra, so you appear to have two installations after your Vista partition [12:14] BurningSebra: okay, well it should be as easy as selecting the last two partitions and deleting them [12:14] ziroday: well, i am not using ubuntu, i am using debian [12:14] oops sorry ziroday :) [12:14] lol traskbt [12:15] where can i find the manual [12:15] daftykins: i did, but maybe i did it wrong. freeze again. i can login with ssh but can't shut down gdm. just a second, i'll try to get it with vesa [12:15] demon_: manual for what? === atlaS is now known as Guest28030 [12:15] ziroday: unable to delete /dev/sda6 Please unmount any logical partitions having a number higher than 6 [12:15] J-_, turn iso in to img [12:15] creator-cdsc: right, you need to ask in #debian. Not here. Tell them your wireless card, and give them the dmesg output [12:15] BurningSebra: okay, you need to delete it on a livecd [12:15] sint it should happily restart from "sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart" [12:15] ziroday: ok, thanks a lot for your help :) [12:16] ziroday: roger. back when i get the live cd up [12:16] ziroday, was it not that it couldn't delete 6 because 7 and 8 exist? [12:17] demon_: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=557237 Not sure how reliable it is. [12:17] :) thanks mate [12:17] thanks ubuntu [12:17] daftykins: no, it mess around on the extended partition until everything on it was unmounted [12:18] oh said person was using one of the installs, ok, missed that bit [12:18] I am finding the packaging management apps in jaunty, both in Kubuntu and Ubuntu, to be very unstable and glitchy ... sometimes getting stuck while reloading the sources, opening to no available packages or spitting out errors about something having crashed somewhere ... [12:19] daftykins: it does not, i don't know why [12:19] I have no sound anymore since upgraded to jaunty. Any hints? [12:19] zetheroo: Before installing, did you verify the md5? [12:19] !sound [12:19] adac, have you check the level with alsamixer ? [12:19] 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 [12:19] this is happening on two seperate machines with fresh installs and having reinstalled several times from USB flash disk and CD [12:19] adac, mute/unmute, plug in speakers, turn up volume? [12:20] zetheroo, how does package management perform from command line? [12:20] daftykins: that seems to work [12:20] traskbt, that helped ysterday once. today its again the same and mute unmute does also not work anymore [12:20] hey all, is it better to have the apps on an SSD and the home on a SATA due to the amount of times that the home dir gets accessed for data to reduce w [12:20] ear [12:20] !sound | adac [12:20] adac: 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).

[12:21] adac: sudo lshw -C sound see if a driver is loaded [12:21] yeah ActionParsnip1 , and swap on SATA too [12:21] also Hardware Drivers is not picking up the ATI drivers even though it has them there for activation ... same thing with packages not responding through the UI tools [12:21] traskbt, mut unmute helped now again! will this problem be solved? [12:21] not that swap ever gets touched in most installs of course [12:21] daftykins: ok cool (I dont use swap, 2Gb ram for surfing and chatting is more than enough ;)) [12:21] :) agreed [12:21] although i notice it's needed for hibernating laptops :( [12:21] adac, I have no idea what the issue actually is, heh. [12:22] hello, my realpyer 11 only can playe rmvb without sound! i konw i should install "aoss" and add it into "/usr/lib/realplay-11.0.0/realplay" but i don't konw add to where! http://paste.ubuntu.org.cn/14178 [12:22] traskbt, I think this is a jaunty bug [12:22] adac does a jaunty livecd work fine audio wise? === bizkit__ is now known as bizkit [12:22] daftykins, I will try that out later! [12:22] is there a known issue with the package managment apps in Jaunyu? ... or am I alone in this? [12:23] just thinking though, would booting off a live cd with 4Gb RAM actually run faster for a person with very limited needs (like mine) as the apps will reside on a ram disk. So over time would the performance improve as the contents of the ram shaped to my usage. I would of course have swap on the internal disk and use the internal for storage [12:23] zetheroo: wassup? [12:23] zetheroo, to be honest everything works absolutely fine here. just slow mirrors after release day, but that's all settled down for me where i am [12:23] zetheroo, I haven't used the package manager in Jaunty yet, but I'm going to know and let you know how it works for me. [12:23] zetheroo: apt-get has never failed me yet, its all i sue [12:24] *use [12:24] ActionParsnip1: just very strange behaviours from Kubuntu and Ubuntu package managment apps [12:24] Does anyone know if there is something wrong with wine + fglrx (official from ATi site) in 9.04? [12:24] ActionParsnip1: ok [12:24] zetheroo: can you expand on that [12:24] oliver3: are you using the wine from the wine repo? [12:24] No DirectX apps seem to work, just erroring out with X errors [12:24] ActionParsnip1, yes [12:24] ActionParsnip1: That's the idea behind persistent liveusb's, but unlike livecd's, you can save files to your home [12:24] i just received an update for synaptic zetheroo XD [12:24] ActionParsnip1: I am finding the packaging management apps in jaunty, both in Kubuntu and Ubuntu, to be very unstable and glitchy ... sometimes getting stuck while reloading the sources, opening to no available packages or spitting out errors about something having crashed somewhere ... [12:25] daftykins: really? [12:25] ripps: well if i mount /home to my internal, the program data will surely sit in ram, making it super fast [12:25] yep zetheroo [12:25] ripps: is my idea, or am i reading it wrong [12:25] update manager literally just popped up [12:25] or rather didn't, sat on the taskbar [12:26] ziroday: im back and on a live cd [12:26] maybe the Jaunty servers are just really overloaded ... and me being in the great down-under am having a hard time getting my share of the goods [12:26] how do I set it up so that when a client telnets to my computer, it automatically runs a python script that they can use? [12:26] BurningSebra: great, now try remove the last two partitions again [12:26] ActionParsnip1: I'm sure it's possible, I'm pretty sure Knoppix livecd saves home by creating a disk image of home on your harddrive. [12:26] BurningSebra: sda5 and sda6 [12:26] ziroday: cant same error [12:26] ziroday: sda6 is locked has that keyholder icon now. [12:26] Hello, how do I disable ipv6 on Ubuntu 9.04? [12:27] BurningSebra: did you mount your previous install on the livecd? [12:27] zetheroo: you can always use a server that is closer to you [12:27] ripps: i'm just trying to get my whole OS in ram as I have nearly as much as my / partition is big (2.6Gb) [12:27] I dislike how there's no system notifications in the notification applet in jaunty. If the indicator applet is for that, it's never worked. It worked in alpha, I've to see it start up now, so I disabled it. [12:27] ziroday: havent mounted anything [12:27] J-_: It surely sucks [12:27] theo_: let me search [12:27] Boohbah: yeah ... that may just work .. I usually set it to Main ... but there is also Australia ... [12:27] i dont even know what the indicator applet indicates [12:27] BurningSebra: hmph. what does hovering over the keyholder say? [12:27] ActionParsnip1: thank you [12:28] ziroday: dont understand what you mean [12:28] indus i have Pidgin running and indicator applet changes to show when i have new messages etc. but yeah i don't really get its' purpose [12:28] i point the icon, no text apears if its that [12:28] indus: I wouldn't say it sucks, but it's rather in development, just like the notifications. If you want a very solid distro, go for a LTS release. [12:28] if I put sudo -in- a script, will it prompt the user for a password? I have 2 commands I need done that require root, and that's it. [12:29] BurningSebra: hmm okay. Can you pastebin the output of sudo fdisk -l and mount please [12:29] theo_: add the script to the user's ~/.bash_profile [12:29] welcome all [12:29] daftykins: indicator-applet is a testbed for future changes in the next ubuntu, but for now they're using us as guinea pigs to work out any of the bugs [12:29] I wanted to set up something that did not even require a login [12:29] How do I disable ipv6 on Ubuntu 9.04? [12:30] IHS_Intern: you can use the NOPASSWD option in /etc/sudoers [12:30] IHS_Intern: 'man sudoers' for syntax [12:30] So... nobody know of any wine + fglrx problems? [12:30] theo_: system -> administration -> login window [12:30] jrib: I'm using a server. [12:30] Boohbah: I want this to be able to drop on 30-40 computers I'm managing [12:31] with as little work making it work on each system as possible. [12:31] theo_: be more specific about what you want [12:31] yes J-_ [12:31] oliver3: if you suspect something, log a bug [12:31] IHS_Intern Boohbah: you should only edit /etc/sudoers with the visudo command, otherwise you could cause irrepairble harm that won't allow you use sudo ever again. [12:31] IHS_Intern: check out cfengine [12:31] Thinking of switching back to the intelligent hardy [12:32] jrib: Have you ever seen the star wars telnet? I wanted to make something that people could telnet to and use. The python script that is running would get information from the user and send feedback [12:32] theo_: and you want to do this without any authentication? [12:32] theo_: so what is your question? [12:32] daftykins: pidgin shows new messages on its own anyway [12:32] ziroday> i unlocked the sda6 [12:32] when i try to download a large file, say jaunty iso file...it takes me nearly 14 hrs... and sometimes there maybe a power cut or sometimes internet maybe down...is there any good download managers that will ensure that my download continues from where it had stopped.. [12:32] Deluge problem, I've removed the system tray icon (by accidentaly right clicking and removing) and I can't get it back. It's enabled in Deluge but it's not there. [12:33] boohbah: correct [12:33] indus that's precisely my point [12:33] BurningSebra: great, but you need sda5 too :). Did you get that info that I asked for? [12:33] PerryArmstrong, bit torrent? [12:33] jrib: my question was how to get some kind of server that would be listening on the telnet port and when someone connects run a script [12:33] ziroday> commands. working on it [12:33] PerryArmstrong: wget? [12:33] and the ctl atl del disable [12:33] BurningSebra: wonderful! [12:33] theo_: write it? [12:33] theo_: so, just have your script listen on some port... [12:33] daftykins: they disable that and i cant get that to work [12:33] PerryArmstrong: I personally use aria2c to download most of my stuff, it's like wget on steroids. [12:34] OK [12:34] daftykins: dont zap is dangerous and my display doesnt load [12:34] !info aria2 | PerryArmstrong [12:34] PerryArmstrong: aria2 (source: aria2): High speed download utility.

[12:35] daftykins: neither do i see a reason for you to be commenting on it [12:35] Ziroday, sounds like I've removed the notification area [12:35] ripps; are you sure that aria2c can resume...wget can't resume..i have tried wget...

[14:03] Slart: well i was under the impression the 3D acceleration features are only used during a special effect [14:03] JonDgls: that works too.. but I think I'll be limited by the usb sticks write speed [14:03] Slart: and i don't care if my fonts get a little mesesd up in Expo view :) [14:03] shadeslayer: I guess windows has some extra acpi controlling this that are propietry to the laptop?

[14:03] maybe,or its just lying [14:04] s1gmab3ta: hmm.. I don't think so.. [14:04] wtl: hmm, im pretty sure evo has a feature for backup. [14:04] @Slart: Thats ok. If your able to get above 1MB/sec than the Intrepid bug may be resolved. [14:04] JonDgls: hang on.. I'll give it a go [14:04] It seems ubuntu x64 comes loaded with python x64, which isn't good for much. Any way to replace it with python x86 ?

[14:07] hi [14:07] jag_, then how are they connected? [14:07] plz how to hide icon in tray [14:07] shadeslayer: would the fact that its a dell make things anybetter (as in better support from Ubuntu) or just that you have a 9 cell battery? [14:07] jrib: I haven't actually tried getting anything to work with it, I know from long experience that installing C extensions for python not designed to be compiled for x64 is just asking for trouble. [14:07] rock: can you be more specific? [14:08] coleys, yeah but you have to manually back configurations up [14:08] can i make ubuntu maximize ( or set specific size and position) for some applications? for example : i want gnome-termianl to be maximzed when started [14:08] coleys, since i havent, will my old .evolution just be void?

[14:10] how to hide icon in tray [14:10] why is openvpn being so stupid on 9.04 through the network manager? [14:10] jrib: There's almost no reason to use python x64 anyway. The 32bit version is superior in almost every practical use case. [14:10] anyone have a working openvpn installation with 9.04 connecting as client? [14:10] jag_: is it....gulp...conficker [14:10] thanks [14:10] tyta: during install you just select the partition or whole drive you want to install to. [14:10] tyta: insert cd the and install it on the secondary drive [14:10] The1Qwerty_1: np [14:11] Anyone had issues with Ubuntu 64 and 32bit Java JDK (manually installing Java) for development?

Java 1.5JDK. I've installed Maven and it tries to download stuff and fails, but it never actually creates a socket. (tcpdump reports nothing) [14:12] jag_: Does your router allow you to block the mac address? [14:12] is it safe to install ubuntu 9.04 ? :) [14:12] cllaudyu, not at all ;) [14:12] cllaudyu: yes [14:13] ikonia: as noted before, Java 1.5JDK 32bit [14:13] you're right... [14:13] cllaudyu: very few fatalities at this point [14:13] the sound in youtube doesn`t work after I upgraded to jaunty. are there any known issues? [14:13] C_Kode: verify java with a simple hello world program first [14:14] C_Kode: Java itself works, it just seems to fail any network access. [14:14] i installed it for five times now and it used to freez or crash... [14:14] problem is the the MAC adress shows as unresolved . .?????? [14:14] cllaudyu, what system specs on the computer? [14:14] Since it is expected to fail connections to some maven repo, it fails gracefully and doesn't report why it actually failed. [14:15] well... 256 mb ram would be the reason off al this? [14:15] Though as I noted, there is no TCP activity reported by tcpdump when it makes these attempts [14:15] Eloff: I really doubt you'll have any issues. Anything that's open source is likely to "just work" with 64 bit and most python software is open source [14:15] jag_, well, the hard way would be to check all connections you want and add those to the allowed list of MAC addresses and deny all others [14:15] cllaudyu, possible, what video card and cpu? [14:16] cllaudyu, what video card and cpu? [14:17] Halitech_, THANX . . will start doing that . . LOL only 487 IP,s to add 1 by 1 . . .

However, my system is emitting a slightly different message. It complains that md5 is deprecated. Bug url: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/openvpn/+bug/352170 [14:22] Has anybody seen this before? Quick fix?

[14:40] Kalamot Yeah I think so [14:41] Kalamot No It Will Not Work [14:41] unfortunately :S [14:41] Slart: Hmmm...Seems the bug remains for USB 2.0 in 64bit. I read that booting into the olther non-generic kernal resolves the issue. Downside=older kernal. Really thought this would be resolved as USB 2.0 is now an industry standard. [14:41] hackoidz: it is such a basic function strange that no gui prog on linux can do that [14:41] because when the torrent finishes it will stay seeding [14:42] Kalamot_, man rtorrent [14:42] because a torrent client will keep running even if you finished downloading [14:42] hackoidz: utorrent has that kind of option [14:42] JonDgls: indeed.. I wonder if there is a bug reported to the kernel people.. [14:42] utorrent is not for linux [14:43] jag_: thanks will o that , to be hones i was looking for a prog with gui but this will have to do [14:43] how can i disable automount of usb drives?

I'm surprised this option is not available..

[14:53] 'm thinking about switching to xfce... but is the gain in speed/performances very notable? or is it minimal? (I have a core2duo with 2gb ram...) [14:54] Kalamot It Is One Of Its Features: 12. Auto shutdown computer when all finished [14:54] Nirkus: Sorry. Perhaps the folks in #ubuntu-server might have a better document for you. [14:54] cloeys: I will try [14:54] thanks [14:54] coleys, you should use gksu not sudo when launching graphical apps [14:54] With ubuntu, if i try to install a package, and if the installation of that package is failed to due to "subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 10" error, how can i troubleshoot this problem ? [14:54] hackoidz i can see that now i need to find the repositories [14:54] Pici: im not interested in the server version of ubuntu. ;-) [14:54] Halitech: Whats the difference? [14:54] coleys_, thanx . .lol [14:55] Nirkus: Oh. Er. [14:55] coleys, sudo is designed for the terminal, gksu is designed for graphical apps [14:55] jag_: Np :p [14:55] Kalamot: You Have To Compile It [14:55] Halitech: Oh, so it doesn't require terminal? [14:55] hackoidz: it is en exe file [14:55] Halitech: Nice!! Thanks. [14:55] coleys, not mousepad it doesn't [14:56] I usually would do alt +F2 then sudo thunar (run in terminal) [14:56] coleys, you could hit ALT + F2 and run the same command with gksu [14:56] Halitech: with gksu I dont need to do that :p [14:56] coleys, exactly [14:56] Halitech: Thanks for the tip, appreciated! [14:56] hackoiz: seems it is an windowz app [14:56] Nirkus: Well.. theres https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SettingUpNFSHowTo and [14:56] coleys, welcome :) [14:56] Nirkus: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SettingUpNISHowTo [14:56] Yeah I Used www.google.com/linux To Search [14:57] Hehe [14:57] anybody knows how i can hack ubuntu so that brightness shortcuts under laptop samsung x460 can work?

[15:00] bazhang: you know chineese? impressed [15:00] bassliner: sudo apt-get install alacarte [15:00] erUSUL, just xp :) [15:00] <[4-tea-2]> Howdy. My attempt to upgrade my desktop machine using update-manager from 8.10 to 9.04 is stuck: "Installing 7 assemblies from libmono-addins0.2-cil into Mono" and "Stacktrace:" are the last things it said, now it's hanging. What do I do? [15:00] coleys: There is no headphones volume [15:00] hi, i need to see the xorg.conf files in kubuntu i looked at /etc/X11/xorg.conf and i only see "Configured Monitor" , how i see the "original" xorg.conf?

[15:01] Guest49366:Im not using gnome, but see if you can select controls. [15:02] Guest49366: I don't know exactly how to do that as I can't see it, but it might be under file, or even a button called select controls. [15:02] Guest49366: Then Select headphones, Master, and Front. [15:02] Hymnosis: there is a drop down box in the upper right corner [15:03] Hymnosis_, EDIT , PREFRENCES , VIEWS [15:03] Hymnosis: or you can edit it in nautilus > Edit >prefrence [15:04] thanks mate and sorry for the dumb question lol [15:04] bassliner: Works =]?

[15:04] !xinerama > gecko_ [15:04] gecko_, please see my private message [15:05] uShare <--- Anyone have a script to start uShare on boot? [15:06] JonDgls: System > preferences > startup? [15:06] JonDgls: there should be an exaple in /etc/init.d/skeleton [15:07] theres also a file,something.local where you can add commands,which will be run on boot [15:07] hi [15:07] hi guys, have a problem and could use some help plese. I'm running 9.04 and alsa only seems to work after i login to the gdm. Before there is an error locating the sound card. Anyone experiencing the same problem? [15:07] look at all your options :) [15:07] Engwar: What sound card? [15:07] Ensoniq 5880B [AudioPCI] [15:08] dfasdjkfa [15:08] Engwar: Your sound echos? [15:09] coleys: nope, perfect sound after logging to the gdm, no sound before when i use aplay remotely [15:09] how can I get an ATi control panel [15:09] coleys: this module is loaded snd_ens1371 [15:09] like you can get with nvidia [15:09] wanna try powersafe mode for the gpu [15:09] shadeslayer: rc.local will run uShare in the background before login prompt but uShare does cannot scan media directories until login. Therefore a manual start is required using "ushare" to scan directories and then "sudo /etc/init.d/ushare start" to start the UPnP server. [15:09] SCIM is not working in my computer. Are there any other input method besides SCIM and Ibus? [15:10] JonDgls: cool,it was just a thought btw [15:10] where can i find /trash [15:10] !trash [15:10] The location of Trash has changed since 8.04, it is now located in ~/.local/share/Trash | Looking for the trash in previous versions: ~/.Trash [15:11] shadeslayer: np, thank you. I do use rc.local for other commands tho. uShare unfortunatley won't play nice :) Thanx [15:11] gecko_: please do not pm and ask in the channel [15:11] ok [15:12] !commands > coleys [15:12] coleys, please see my private message [15:12] shadeslayer: got another question for you, can I bring up the ATi catalyst control centre thing im using stock 9.04 and it does not allow me to install any hardware drivers [15:13] !commands > gecko_ [15:13] hello sir i am using compaq presario CQ45 laptop . My problem is sound is not proper . [15:13] gecko_, please see my private message [15:13] The1Qwerty_1: fglrx thingy? [15:13] yeah [15:13] Riya: What sounds card? [15:13] coleys: not really, no. [15:13] says command not found [15:13] The1Qwerty_1: no idea,you could ask the bot [15:13] hello sir i am using compaq presario CQ45 laptop . My problem is sound is not proper [15:13] !sound | Riya [15:13] Riya: 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 [15:14] shadeslayer: which one? [15:14] bassliner: did you isntall alacarte? [15:14] coleys: yeah but it doesn't affect the xfce menu [15:14] pepperjack: Had a look at /etc/init.d/skeleton I really don't have a clue on how to modify the script to run uShare on boot. [15:14] !fglrx > The1Qwerty_1 [15:14] The1Qwerty_1, please see my private message [15:15] bassliner: Sec, im on xfce aswell. [15:15] bassliner: What do you want to remove from your menu? [15:15] coleys: is xfce notably faster than gnome? [15:15] yes [15:15] I have 2gb ram and core2duo [15:15] pep: Oh yeah :) [15:15] coleys: ''System > preferences > startup?" I saw that but I thought it was too good to be true ;) Will try later [15:15] coleys: i do not want to _remove_ something. [15:15] I like using xchat-gnome, it sure would be handy to have a UTC clock somewhere on the interface... [15:16] coleys: i want to add my own custom stuff. [15:16] pep, if you've got great hardware, the difference probably isn't huge, but yeah xfce is faster [15:16] hello [15:16] what the difference between cups and cupsys ? [15:16] bassliner: Okay check out... /usr/share/applications [15:16] bassliner: the .desktop files are things found in your menu. [15:16] regeya: well fine.. you convinced me, I'm instaling xfce :) [15:16] bassliner: Look over them and you can figure out how to create your Own. [15:16] pep: its ugly tho [15:17] maginot, on the terminal type: apt-cache show cupsys [15:17] shadeslayer: Not ugly =/ [15:17] shadeslayer: why? it looks almost exactly like gnome.... :/ [15:17] coleys: hmm,idk its ugly for my taste :P [15:17] pep: It's as customizable as gnome, plus eitherway you can use emerald =p [15:17] shadeslayer, why do you say its ugly? Personally I find XFCE on Ubuntu almost the same as Gnome on ubuntu [15:17] yeah [15:17] I agree with Halitech [15:18] hi, i'd like to know in which group apache by default is, cause i need to add the group/user to a folder [15:18] coleys: not much point switchin gto xfce if it's to use emerald.. [15:18] ok,now theres gonna be a flame war,5000000 against 1,*not fair* [15:18] Lord-FaKe: www-data [15:18] pep, and seeing as how Xubuntu uses alot of gnome apps, might as well use gnome as XFCE as the speed change is not that noticable [15:19] my os is ubuntu 9.v [15:19] if you have good hardware the notice is not *that* big [15:19] shadeslayer, not going to flame you, just wondering why you think XFCE is ugly [15:19] I have good hw [15:19] Halitech: just my personal opinion [15:19] 2.1GHz thinkpad r61 with 2gb ram [15:19] hello sir i am using compaq presario CQ45 laptop . My problem is sound is not proper [15:19] I don't think I will see a great difference [15:19] Riya: did you see those links? [15:19] shadeslayer, ok, so not really anything you can pinpoint as to why you think its ugly, just your feeling about it. okay, fair enough [15:20] driver is detected [15:20] And for today's "Terribly Stupid Question for the Day!" If I want to use a secure shell, I really need putty because a regular terminal window isn't going to cut it right? [15:20] I like how the panels like fade out when your not on them :p [15:20] pep, if you want to see a speed difference go with Debian and XFCE and you will see a big difference [15:20] jrib: thx - is it possible that that group isn't generated by the standard server installation of ubuntu? [15:20] pep: Or Openbox [15:20] Riya: did you read the part where it says about unmuting the spkr? [15:20] no link [15:20] Lord-FaKe: if you have apache installed through the repositories, you should have the group [15:21] djuggler: what are you wanting a secure shell for, connecting from one server to another? [15:21] !sound > Riya [15:21] Riya, please see my private message [15:21] pep, im using icewm [15:21] djuggler: You only *need* PuTTY if you're ssh-ing from a Windows computer [15:21] djuggler: you *need* Putty if you're using windows. it's just nice to have with linux, ssh in a terminal is fine [15:21] rotherad: yes.. I need to do some command line stuff on a linux box where I host some sites [15:21] djuggler: just open up a terminal and run 'ssh user@server' [15:23] oh so debian is really much faster than ubuntu Halitech? [15:23] thx [15:23] djuggler: np :D [15:23] k not working ubttu [15:23] thanks again [15:23] debian is most likely less user friendly [15:23] Riya: ubottu is a bot [15:23] it is not. [15:23] pep, I find it is, I was running Xubuntu on a P4 1.8 with a gig of ram and changed to Debian with XFCE4 and the speed increase is very noticable [15:23] bassliner: How's it going ? [15:23] Riya: can you hear even the faintest of sounds? [15:23] I see [15:23] Hello, have a problem in ubuntu: The numpad-buttons on the keyboard doesn't work. Nothing happens when I press any of them, regardless of the numlock-state. Any idea? [15:23] coleys, actually, if you can run Ubuntu then you can run Debian [15:23] ... when printing from cups on ubuntu 8.10 some parts of my barcode are notprinting the barcode is composed by this string *AR12345RL* but the asterisk barcode is not printing (but show in the pdf file) if I print on cups in other server using cupsys 1.3.2 there are no problem, with cups on 1.3.9 I have this probl [15:23] bassliner: and im not organic :P [15:23] well, the problem is I'm not sure if my hw is as supported than under ubuntu [15:23] needhelp: i had the exact problem a week ago,updates seem to have fixed it [15:23] I heard ubuntu is more upto date [15:24] coleys: well again, i really do not want to manually edit the menu file, i want my old xfce4-menueditor application back. [15:24] needhelp: hold down the 4, does your mouse move? [15:24] Halitech: Ill believe you, i've never tried debian. as customizable? [15:26] shadeslayer, have just updated everything to newest versions [15:26] Ya i did like volum->hd intel alas mix but problem still [15:26] jrib, yes it moves [15:26] Like my Ubuntu 9.04 Desktop? http://img299.imageshack.us/img299/3281/screenshot6.jpg [15:26] pep, basically if it runs Ubuntu you can run debian ... Debian stable is slightly out of date but there is testing and experimental, Ubuntu was/is based on testing [15:26] needhelp: press ctrl-shift-numlock [15:26] coleys, I find it is [15:26] Riya: is everything set to high and all Playback options selected? [15:26] Halitech: Ima take a look =p [15:26] jrib: Thank you! [15:26] iD4rK: nice one [15:26] iD4rK, not really [15:26] ok but no [15:26] iD4rK: nice desktop [15:26] coleys, basically any theme that works on Ubuntu from gnome-look.org will work on Debian [15:26] Riya: what ?? [15:26] q. i would like to change the default program when i click on a .avi in nautilus, where should i look ? [15:26] Xubuntu vs. Debian Xfce: http://distrowatch.com/weekly.php?issue=20090427#feature [15:26] iD4rK: which messenger is it? [15:26] Halitech: Does it have a desktop release? [15:27] it's a pidgin screenlet [15:27] google for pidgin screenlet [15:27] and u will find it [15:27] coleys, yes it does and you can download regular debian, kde, XFCE+LXDE or you can do a net install [15:27] iD4rK: thats pidgin :O ?? [15:27] iD4rK: whats the resource monitor at the bottom? [15:28] jetienne: right click on the file in nautilus - properties, open with [15:28] Intel 64 ;))) [15:28] shadeslayer sir i did all that u told but still the sound is not proper [15:28] anyone using xubuntu 9.04 able to get amarok to work with an ipod? [15:28] its another screenlet called RingSensors [15:28] Riya: could you post a screenshot of your sound settings?

[15:31] lol, search for it u can check http://www.gnome-look.org/ for customizations and plugins [15:31] there is a lot of stuff there [15:32] Guest20491, have you tried using the live cd to resize it with partition editor? you can't resize a mounted partition [15:32] iD4rK: how do i install the screenlet? [15:32] Guest20491: depending on how much "wasted space" there is in the partition and the type of the filesystem, it should be a quick enough operation... [15:32] partition editor? no i use gparted on umounted partition mbeierl [15:33] go to your apcket manager and search for screenlet [15:33] then u will see the screenlet manager [15:33] Where can I get a backport of the new screen-profiles package? [15:33] there is a isntall button [15:33] Guest20491: that was Halitech that asked about live cd [15:33] err, i mean u search it, downlaod and let it isntall then u find it under accesories [15:33] (a backport to 8.10) [15:34] once started u see the isntall button [15:34] Guest20491: do I understand the question correctly? You have an existing partimage that you want to restore to a partition that is smaller than specified in the partimage file? [15:34] is there a way to replace the default voice in Festival? I can barely understand it [15:35] have to leave, bbl [15:35] mbeierl, yes but first I will shrink it in a bigger partition [15:35] qr, https://launchpad.net/~screen-profiles/+archive/ppa [15:35] Guest20491: ok, yes, then that is the only answer that I know... wish it were easier, but I can say it will work [15:35] ralfm_: excellent, thanks [15:36] hmm i cant get the ring sensor to monitor my temp [15:36] ralfm_: are the screen profiles for the program "screen" for the cli?

[15:48] !aptitude [15:48] Hello Guys, I've been using 8.10 since December and I just simply see no reason to switch back to WinBlows, but I do have a question. I just got prompted to install the 9.04 and I'm wondering how much work is required to get Jaunty running and get things stable? I mean will I have to reinstall things like VLC and go about redoing all my preferences? If that's the case I may need to postpone things until I have a few hours to get things [15:48] done.

I just got prompted to install the 9.04 and I'm wondering how much work is required to get Jaunty running and get things stable? I mean will I have to reinstall things like VLC and go about redoing all my preferences? If that's the case I may need to postpone things until I have a few hours to get things [16:09] done.

[16:12] SiDi: Can ubuntu even mount .CUE or whatever [16:12] shankhayan: you can try tools such as mdf2iso nrg2iso pdi2iso ccd2iso or cdi2iso or b5i2iso [16:12] doggyslobber, there are Firefix plugins like fireshot [16:12] Anyone using HP laptop and had audio problems... and managed to solve it === herb` is now known as herb [16:12] shankhayan: no, these are filesystems managed by the CD cloning apps, and by Alcohol 120% or Daemon tools, which are all windows tools [16:12] Halitech, what would be the easiest way to back up my settings for say something like Xchat? I would hate to lose all the settings I labored over. Of course I know how to save my personal data, but the tweaks I spent so much time getting just right would be a HUGE punch in the gut if I lost them. [16:12] janisozaur: you should ask in the qt channel, or at least in the channel for the language you are writing in [16:12] if I run "screen" from a "screen" how do I open new shell in the inner screen? C-a c opens new shell of the outer. [16:13] shankhayan: try one of the above tools till it succeeds. And if they all fail then you'll have to find an actual ISO on the web [16:13] shankhayan: if you made the ISO yourself from windows, be sure to save it explicitely in ISO 9660 [16:13] RPS, just backup your home folder as all personal preferences are there, just make sure you get the hidden files [16:13] SiDi: But how do I determine what Filesystem the disc image really is [16:13] I hope you wherent overreacting my friend. Stew! :) [16:14] amgarching: C-a a escapes I think. Search the man page for "escape" [16:14] shankhayan: well, that's the whole problem:) if you don't know what its been done with, its impossible [16:14] Tenacious D Powerrrs ! [16:14] SiDi: Thanks anyway [16:14] jrib: right, C-a a c [16:14] shankhayan: but as the file is coming alone, its very likely a cue or bin. They're the most common. If you had an .mds file with it, then the ISO is a .mdf [16:14] Anyone else having printing problems since their Jaunty upgrade? [16:14] shankhayan: you're welcome. Good luck with your file.

[16:16] salut [16:16] hi [16:16] hi [16:17] Swistak, MS doesnt like to play ball with other operating systems and it is usually best to install it first then Ubuntu [16:17] Swistak: the partition that you are trying to install windows to was formatted as ext3 by ubuntu. It is highly recommended to install operating systems into their own partitions, not share a partition between two partitions [16:18] Swistak: therefore you will need to shrink the partition that ubuntu is using and make a new one for Windows XP [16:18] mbeierl, no, this HDD is second phisycal HDD, without filesystem [16:18] Swistak: yeah,sorry,what you could try is to make a new partition through gparted which a FAT32 or NTFS partition [16:18] but windows try to acces first HDD [16:18] Swistak: so Windows is not allowing you to install on second hdd? [16:19] shadeslayer, I tried installing this on NTFS and on empty space [16:19] and?\ [16:19] mbeierl, I can select second HDD, but windows want also acces MBR at first disc (EXT3 ubuntu) [16:19] Hi. Is it possible to use beryl on latest amd64 ubuntu and ati x1950? [16:19] shadeslayer, and It give me the same error [16:19] Swistak: also, generally you want to install in this order xp, ubuntu otherwise xp will take over your boot loader and you have to repair. [16:20] Swistak: trick is to let ubuntu have the last word [16:20] heh [16:21] pepperjack, I realise that [16:21] but I cant install xp [16:21] Swistak, if you want to install xp on a different hard drive, I recommend you disconnect the one with ubuntu (power or data cable should be sufficient) [16:21] I am having problem connecting VPN in jaunty [16:21] well the recommended way is windoze > Ubuntu [16:21] i get this damm error [16:21] also at XP and vista [16:21] anyone has recommendation [16:21] can anyone give me a little help? i just got an hd tv and im trying to get the resolution set right. i think the problem is in the horizontal and vert sync. my tv manual says its hor 47.7 vert 60. but the xorg.conf file has value ranges. im not really sure what to put there. [16:21] Crazyguy, omg, thats hardcore ;D [16:21] that mean windows => ubuntu works good, but ubuntu => windows not [16:21] Swistak, xp sometimes wants to overwrite the ubuntu boot loader even when installing to another disk [16:22] Swistak: xp is very limited in what it allows you to do i imagine it will insist on installing to master drive [16:22] yep [16:22] In the older ubuntu's there was an System/Preferences/Sessions, and I could hit the button to "Save my session" so that my terminal and a few other apps would auto-open when I login. That button stopped working in 8.?? and now in 9.04 Sessions is gone...is there any new functionality to replace this? [16:22] what is the best way to change default python version in ubuntu 9.04 [16:23] but this order mean to me that ubuntu is limited [16:23] Ok, so, I installed ubuntu last night and booted into it and played around, everythings good... today I go to boot into windows and even when I try to boot safemode, it loads Mup.sys then the computer reboots to bios [16:23] Swistak: what it means is that Windows XP does not want to share your computer with another operating system unless it comes from Microsoft [16:23] how can i create an lpr queue, for our as400 server to print to, with cupsys on ubuntu? [16:23] How do I go about fixing that? [16:23] Swistak: have you asked in ##windows as well? i think that should be a more appropriate channel [16:23] Swistak: it is not Ubuntu's fault it is Microsoft [16:23] ok [16:23] I will disconnect this [16:23] yeah,they have a bad bad partitioning system [16:24] hdd [16:24] Swistak: you can stay joined to two channels at a time.

The volume from its speaker is much lower than it is when running WinXP on it. How do I enhance it? [16:33] AnRkey, you can also move files (partitions) from one drive to another drive without any disruptions. It's really cool.

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 [16:33] RPS, we usually make things more complicated then they are ~L~ hopefully the upgrade goes fine and you won't need the backup files [16:33] christi, i could put them on an lvm partition and expand as the volume expands? [16:34] AnRkey, under LVM, you just add a new PV (physical volume) - a regular partition actually, then add it to the volume group and then you can extend a logical volume [16:34] vbabiy: you should just use python2.5 in your hashbang line. Changing the default version is a bad idea since it could break some scripts [16:34] hareldvd: where is that? [16:34] I saw in thealsa mixer and it is not there [16:35] I don mind disabling te speakers completly [16:35] AnRkey, you put filesystems on logical volumes; after extending the logical volume you run resize2fs on it [16:35] !mp3 [16:35] For multimedia issues, this page has useful information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats - See also https://help.ubuntu.com/9.04/musicvideophotos/C/video.html - But please use free formats if you can: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeFormats [16:35] It do have sound.

[16:36] hareldvd: I have seen there, and there is no seperate cntrol for volume [16:36] AnRkey, they aren't straightforward [16:37] AnRkey, I've tried once and now I'm cured [16:37] AnRkey, read http://tldp.org/HOWTO/LVM-HOWTO/ ; it's pretty good [16:37] Guest49366, there is an option in the sound panel, double click the speaker next to the time, enable all the advanced options in the menus and you should see headphone jack sense or some such option that you can change [16:38] christi, thanks... you ended up helping me :{ [16:38] :P [16:38] AnRkey, snapshots don't work as you would expect them to work; they aren't buggy per-se, they just don't do what I would like them to do [16:38] AnRkey, that's the beauty of open-source :-) [16:38] AnRkey: It is not present === NoIdeasOriginal is now known as sahyuhr [16:39] Guest49366, click edit preferences and enable them all [16:40] Guest49366, then you should see more tabs and options in the tabs [16:40] Guest49366, when you double clicked on the speaker, did the volume control come up? [16:40] Guest49366, Guess it has to do with your sound card. [16:41] christi, foss is getting pretty cool... we have come quite far in the last few years === adam is now known as Guest83194 [16:42] hi there. I had a very big trouble upgrading to kbuntu 904 as well as mandriva 2009.1... this is all because of the new X server and the discontinued ati driver :( [16:42] I am now install ubuntu 804 as this is the only workable CD I have now [16:43] AnRkey: Yes [16:43] xrfang: from there you can upgrade to 8.10 for better performance if you want.. although both release are close to the same [16:43] my question is, can I switch to kubuntu by install kubuntu-desktop and use ppa source to upgrade to kde 4.2.2, without mess with X or ati driver [16:43] scunizi: I am now very scared about upgrade due to the ati stuff. [16:44] hi there.. can anyone help me with arecord and aplay.. allways as i reboot the system i have to manualy edit the audio source for my tvcard and also the webcam audio source for skype [16:44] can anyone give me a little help? i just got an hd tv and im trying to get the resolution set right. i think the problem is in the horizontal and vert sync. my tv manual says its hor 47.7 vert 60. but the xorg.conf file has value ranges. im not really sure what to put there. [16:44] I may upgrade to 810, but I think 804 may get longer support? what I hope is that I can keep the X and hardware driver stable will keep my desktop and other software up-to-date. [16:44] Guest49366, did you enable all the options under edit > options? [16:44] any suggestions? [16:44] hi [16:45] 8.1 didn't really have an issue.. doing a session change to kubutu doesn't eliminate x but you will be able to do what you want with the upgrade [16:45] dfh [16:45] hrth [16:45] ethd [16:45] ed [16:45] ramona: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.

Is it worth the effort to setup software RAID, or should I just stick with regular backups? [17:46] hi all. what is the best download manager in ubuntu? [17:46] hmm..I've messed up apt. I was installing the JRE and bloody hit the magnification key on my keyboard, couldn't turn it off so logged off...leaving apt through its install (the jre agreement was waiting for me to press 'ok'_ [17:46] qkslvrwolf, said it backwards but so far things are good [17:46] right....I didn't want to change the permissions because I figured that was on purpose. [17:46] im running a fat32 window xp machine, ive been trying to install wubi9.04, but it keeps on hanging at creatinb virtual hdd...is there anything i can do? [17:46] I'm even part of the cdrom group as my user [17:46] qkslvrwolf, is /usr/bin/totem a link to /etc/alternatives/totem* [17:47] so logged back in, tried re-installing with apt and a lock was already in use. I used kill from the commandline to end it; now it's complaining about some broken package. Asks me to do -f install, but that doesn't work [17:47] @Zhane remove xp completely lol [17:47] jtholmes: yes [17:47] i want download kernel 2 6 29 [17:47] the go to kernel.org [17:47] how can make? [17:47] pinged: =_= [17:47] qkslvrwolf, and your login name appears in the cdrom group in /etc/group file [17:48] Loading 9.04 to a USB and booting to it will mean changing the bios I bet? [17:48] Zhane: I think fat32 has a file size limit of 4 GB. [17:48] help me [17:48] @Zane: maybe [17:48] Turtle__ , any ideas? [17:48] i want download kernel 2 6 29? [17:48] RPS: yea [17:48] RPS, almost for certain also use usb-creator [17:48] One thing..the graphical groups manager doesn't see the cdrom group [17:49] Zhane: So if you are trying to create a larger virtual disk, it probably won't fit :/ [17:49] @ [17:49] but my login name does appear in teh cdrom group in /etc/group [17:49] oh. That's weird, apt just fixed itself and installed the JRE. how peculiar [17:49] sergi: Its not in the Ubuntu repositories, so youd have to compile it yourself. [17:49] grawity: even though i create hdd of 3gb, it also does hang [17:49] jtholmes: One thing..the graphical groups manager doesn't see the cdrom group [17:49] jtholmes: but my login name does appear in teh cdrom group in /etc/group [17:49] how? [17:49] Zhane: I think it hangs on 3gb because the install needs 4GB [17:49] I installed WINE cuz I wanted the HTML Editor that I have used for years under Winderz, Homesite. I have got in installed ok and the program loads fine, but when I open a "php", or "html" document, I get an Internet Explorer error and cannot view the HTML doc in a browser......does anyone know how to adjust that to where Homesite would work fully? [17:49] !kernel | sergi [17:49] sergi: The core of the Ubuntu Operating System is the Linux kernel: see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel - You shouldn't have to compile your own, but if you're convinced you do, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel/Compile - See also: /msg ubottu stages [17:49] grawity: with 8.04 i did create >4gb.. but it works... right now when i create 3gb... it allow me to reboot into ubuntu.. and it hangs inside too [17:49] pinged: oops [17:50] pinged: But the limit is only for a single file. [17:50] qkslvrwolf, i dont use GUI much where is the graphical groups manager what menu? [17:50] @grawity what do you mean? [17:50] how to I change the color of the gnome popup windows (the onces you get when you mouse over stuff?) configuring interface and the black on yellow really doesn't wlrk anymore [17:50] system/adminitration/users and groups/groups [17:50] jtholmes: system/adminitration/users and groups/groups [17:51] pinged: they can create 4,4,4, hdd [17:51] pinged: just that the max for each is 4gb [17:51] question please: when I open cyrilic PDF document with "Evince Document Viewer" and copy/paste to gedit, all is comming like this "ñúîòâåòñòâèå". How to fix it? What is wrong? [17:51] Zhane: yeah sorry - i forgot [17:51] pinged: If there's a 3 GB file and a 700 MB file and more similar files, then the 4 GB limit won't apply. [17:52] grawity: yeah but the virtual hd needs 4GB itself - and the virtual hd is a single file [17:52] I installed WINE cuz I wanted the HTML Editor that I have used for years under Winderz, Homesite. I have got in installed ok and the program loads fine, but when I open a "php", or "html" document, I get an Internet Explorer error and cannot view the HTML doc in a browser......does anyone know how to adjust that to where Homesite would work fully? [17:52] qkslvrwolf, doesent show up on mine either but i can run totem [17:52] pinged: But he tried 3 GB disk too. [17:52] ok [17:53] i am not getting the dist-upgrade notification in Ibex.how do i get it? [17:53] jtholmes: I can run totem, I just can't access the dvd without being root. [17:53] qkslvrwolf, have u looked on launchpad to see if anyone has filed a bug [17:53] jtholmes: well, without running totem with sudo [17:53] grawity: I believe that failed because the install needs 4gb - I coulde be wrong though [17:53] qkslvrwolf, yes i know sudo for your totem [17:53] jtholmes: yes, but everyone seems to think it's a libdvdcss problem. [17:53] hmm haha [17:53] pinged: BUT the disk file is 3 GB as specified by user. [17:53] so what should i do huh? [17:53] hi there [17:53] skeeter: you can install the win version of opera / firefox under wine too. this may help. i'd ask in #winehq [17:53] pinged: The installer loads data from the separate .iso [17:54] jtholmes: I'm trying to find my old ubuntuforums login, so I can post up there. [17:54] adelie: gnome-color-chooser offers a GUI to do that i believe [17:54] jtholmes: if no one has an answer I guess I'll file a bug... [17:54] ActionParsnip: ty [17:54] can you recommend a GNOME applet that draws network activity graph (like knetload) [17:54] or an application that sits in try [17:54] tray [17:54] grawity: I know that, and I also know that the cdrom filesystem is compressed, so when it's decompressed it is 4gb [17:54] Where does rhythmbox store playlists? and can I import them from amarok? [17:54] pinged: But it isn't decompressed to the disk. [17:55] qkslvrwolf, always search launchpad to see if a bug already exists and if so add you info to it [17:55] it says swap file has holes in it. how can i just remove the swapfile period? it wont reboot it hangs on the swapfile [17:55] pinged: And if the user specifies 3 GB virtual disk, then the disk won't exceed 3 GB [17:55] I have...didn't find one yet, but I'll try again. [17:55] grawity: where is it compressed to? I'm confused [17:55] skeeter: i stronly recommend using an open source equiv, there are tonnes of tools out thee that run natively [17:55] pinged: Hmm, me too >_> [17:55] how long would Ibex to Jaunty upgrade take with a d/l speed of 25KBps?

I am on a Dell D600 Latitude laptop. On <9.04, setting screen to 'blank' when lid closed worked... in 9.04 it does not. I ran a script I found in launchpad and it seems to know when the lid is closed, but simply the screen does nothing. i.e. it stays fully on. Any suggestions? thanks [17:57] ActionParsnip: how do i know the size of the data? [17:57] hello people [17:57] shit [17:58] why will xsane work using sudo and not if I don't?

[19:05] Ah. What kind of partition must the partitions be? And how big should the system partition be? I know the swap partition should be 1,5 Gb, since i got around 800 MB RAM [19:05] I also edited the configuration file /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf [19:05] What's the difference between .bashrc and .bash_profile? [19:05] i have 40 gig total [19:05] nothing helped [19:05] what is going on? [19:05] is there a way to turn pulseaudio off? [19:05] it seems to be broken [19:05] frenzy_usa, any other ideas? its not really the client, its really about the server side. [19:05] does anybody now it? [19:05] g0th, uninstall it [19:06] ciao a tutti [19:06] !list [19:06] This is not a file sharing channel (or network). If you're looking for information about me, type « /msg ubottu !bot » [19:06] Hi! I'm running the Server edition, and I just installed a wireless card. How do I get ubuntu to recognize it? [19:06] Raff1: yeah, 1.5 GB for swap should be good [19:06] g0th: have you seen http://www.ubuntugeek.com/sound-solutions-for-ubuntu-904-jaunty-users.html yet ? [19:06] hi [19:06] <{g}> Hey People! When I tab-complete a file with an @ in the name, bash esc\@pes the @. Why that? [19:07] alt+tab doesn't work in jaunty with compiz disabled? [19:07] tried it on two different machines [19:07] anyone a netowork printing expert? [19:07] hey. I just installed ubuntu on a new computer, and so far everything's working fine. but I don't know how to use my TV-out (on a radeon 9600). right now I see the same thing on my TV as my main monitor, except when playing something with totem; it just shows a black rectangle instead. [19:07] {g}: probably because @ is a special character in bash, so it needs to be escaped to get a literal @ [19:08] daveosociologist what kinda of printer is it [19:08] <{g}> Dragnslcr: whats special about the @? [19:08] Aeolien, what's ifconfig give you? [19:08] mkasson: the projects i mentioned supply the server and client. You can use any computer as the client. [19:09] glitsj16: no but I quickly read through it and there wasnt much new information [19:09] I will simply remove pulseaudio [19:09] is that a problem for something? [19:09] who with Ati radeon 9x series and jaunty? [19:09] ie. do I need pulseaudio for anything? [19:09] Will the latest version of ubuntu (9.04) allow me to delete files from an NTFS formatted drive? Please help :) [19:09] hi all [19:09] hi: I'm looking for emacs that loads right in the terminal....does such a thing exist? [19:09] frenzy_usa, trying to recall the reason LTSP wouldn't work for me. IIRC its because its for over lan not inet? [19:10] g0th: shouldn't be a problem no, just remember to change the system sound prefs to your preference, it could be using pulse somewhere still [19:10] my trash bin in panel doesn't point to the right place :( [19:10] mkasson: you want over the internet access not local network? [19:10] ok [19:10] another question [19:10] OK I have a problem that has now been in every version of Ubuntu I have tried. I think it must be a gnome/nautalis bug or something related, but I am amazed it hasn't been fixed yet... [19:10] So my problem is deciding the size of the system and home partition (with around 40 Gig total). And only the system partition shold have mounting point..? [19:10] hello my friends [19:11] is there a solution already for the following bug: [19:11] pam_mount(pam_mount.c:100): unknown pam_mount option "use_first_pass" [19:11] hey guys, quick question [19:11] frenzy_usa, yes I want certain people to be able to log in over the internet [19:11] when i use alt+mouse to move a window i can't move it psat the top of the screen [19:11] Pici: are you there why are u not replying to the PM [19:11] because ui'm using it on the eee pc i *Need* to be able to do this. [19:11] Raff1: 5 GB might be enough for the system partition. I usually go with 20+ GB, but I have larger disks [19:11] anyone know how to change this behaviour? [19:11] frenzy_usa, again, sort of like gotomypc or pcanywhere or citrix, etc [19:11] g0th: http://www.ubuntugeek.com/how-to-remove-pulse-audio-ubuntu-810-intrepid-ibex.html (should be similar for jaunty) [19:11] Will the latest version of ubuntu (9.04) allow me to delete files from an NTFS formatted drive? Please help :) [19:11] If I create a remote connection via FTP or SSH to my other machine, and attempt to copy more than a small number of files, the copy operation never copies all the files. It acts like it is, but it always only copies some of them. WHat gives? [19:11] Raff1: the 5 GB partition would mount to /, and the ~35 GB partition would mount to /home [19:12] anyone knows what package in synaptic will contain slmodem? [19:12] ah, thank you :) [19:12] daveosociologist what kinda of printer is it [19:12] Will the latest version of ubuntu (9.04) allow me to delete files from an NTFS formatted drive? Please help :) [19:13] hi [19:13] lordlucan: yes [19:13] Q: can I write a Ubuntu 9.04 iso to a DVD if I don't have a CD blank available? [19:13] gene420: Cannon 2550 Image Runner [19:13] thank you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! [19:13] lordlucan: yep [19:13] Lazermann: sl-modem-daemon [19:13] lordlucan: support for that has been in ubuntu for a long time [19:13] to change my LAN ip adress, is it "ifconfig 192. etc" ? [19:13] gene420: drivers are loaded, it tells me it is printing and completing jobs, nothing happens on printer end [19:13] who with Ati radeon 9x series and jaunty? [19:13] mkasson: Other than freenx, I don't know what other program to try. Never used anything other than ssh over the internet. [19:13] help please, my trash bin is pointing to the weong directory, where do i change? [19:14] quick question, how do i convert a wmv video from a webcam to .dv format? im not too good with video editing... i have loaded a few progs, like kino, unable to PAL or NSTsomething format. any suggestions? [19:14] daveosociologist, how is the printer connected to network? shared on a windows box or ip? [19:14] allowoverride, ffmpeg and dvdauthor [19:14] frenzy_usa, yeah, freenx is great, but I can't get it to run in a jail. and the dev is kinda non-responsive [19:14] defrysk: i took the video with a web cam. does that matter? [19:14] bcampbell: access point is through a windows machine but it has an IP [19:14] allowoverride: mencoder === jcprather is now known as wallshot [19:15] allowoverride, nope [19:15] Lazermann: if you have apt-file package, you could do a "apt-file search slmodem" and find sl-modem-daemon ... really usefull extra the apt-file package [19:15] i can pull those with apt-get, correct? [19:15] daveosociologist, attached direct to the AP? check that all ip settings, subnet etc are the same? [19:15] bcampbell: on the other windows machine it is listed as Cannon on COM19the name of our front computer) [19:15] frenzy_usa, there's a guy who's active on a branch, but I thought maybe someone could recommend a existing solution [19:16] ou can, but you need some cli skills to handle ffmpeg and dvdauthor [19:16] daveosociologist, if it's finding the printer as a shared device from windows make sure the host machine has a user and pass the same as the liinux user [19:16] <[4-tea-2]> gnome-do is nice. Anybody know how to make it work with beagle? [19:17] daveosociologist: could you add the printer in the same fashion smb share printer [19:17] ic [19:17] daveosociologist, if the printer has an IP you shoudl be able to install it direct and avoid the windows box entirely [19:18] hey, guys, can anyone help me with this networking problem? [19:18] evolution no longer saves my sent emails in Sent folder... why is that? [19:18] BCampbell: yeah, ubuntu detected an IP and is using it [19:18] defrysk: good link to those cmdline skills i need ? for fmpeg and dvdauthor [19:18] I've two connections on my laptop, one is wireless and another is wired [19:18] well documented?

[19:23] I've read the docs, but I'm still coming up blank. If my second PPA is at https://launchpad.net/~a.kurtz/+archive/brackup, what should the dput line for incoming be?

I have "/dev/sda2 /mnt/sda2 fuseblk"and the mount point exists. what am I missing? [19:42] maginot: depends on filtype i guess but ghostscript [19:42] frostburn: thanks, I'll look into it [19:42] Sirisian|Work: nice :) [19:42] #ubuntu-jp [19:42] fujimoto: easiest way to remove software is to use synaptic. [19:42] i wish i knew why ubuntu recognizes my sd card only occasionally, whereas windows recognizes it 100% of the time [19:42] any ideas? [19:42] Travis-42, also if you have lots of files in that directory, it may try to create thumbnails and other things, you can disable that, but i don't recall where [19:43] erUSUL, so ... its [ pdf file -> cups -> gs filter -> printer ? [19:43] i have a problem with internet [19:43] How do I use GParted to resize my NTFS (Windows XP Install) partition so I can add to my Ubuntu partition? I booted the LiveCD but it doesnt let me resize the NTFS partition [19:43] ???????????????// [19:43] hi room [19:44] can someone tell me the ip of a online proxy server that I can use on port 80? I cannot use google to look it up myself cos port 80 is not working here... [19:44] somebody knows if ati 8.05 or 8.10 can work on k/ubuntu 9.04? [19:44] need help with jaunty.... keeps freezing [19:44] maginot: yep [19:44] i can't connect it if i tuen on the router after begin the session [19:44] If I want to nerd-rage about the fact that tor was disincluded from Jaunty at the last minute without so much as a by-your-leave in the release notes, is there anything I can do above and beyond opening yet another bug against "Ubuntu release notes"? [19:45] erUSUL, so its not even converted to ps ? [19:45] has anyone had problems with freezes since you upgraded to jaunty? [19:46] ? [19:46] hi there, can i know if there are realy benefits using version 64bit??? [19:46] darkjackaho: there are many benefits. [19:46] maginot: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Common_Unix_Printing_System#Filter_system [19:46] darkjackaho, if you have over 3.5GBs RAM for one [19:46] hi Simkin [19:46] Simkin: What sort of benefits? [19:46] darkjackaho: you can address more memory [19:46] baratman1: I've had problems with freezes *before* I upgraded... Is there anything in the syslog from right before the crash? [19:46] <[_FireSoul_]> darkjackaho, i guess 64 bit and 32 bit are the architecture dependent [19:46] daftykins if you have software to really use it and you have a LOT of RAM like 8 16 32 GB .. [19:46] darkjackaho: and many video related functions will be faster [19:46] darkjackaho: I suppose there are as many opinions out there as people but I switched back from 64 bit to 32 bit. Too many compatibility problems and I could see almost no performance benefit. [19:47] darkjackaho: like converting videos etc. [19:47] cratel: when? [19:47] abuchbinder no, the screen just freezes... mouse works but everything else hangs [19:47] cratel: in the last year i found all compat problems have melted away. [19:47] I have a E6750, 2*1gb 800mhz dualchannel, moth 1330mhz [19:47] cratel: the only one i really had was with flash player... [19:47] Simkin: I ran 64 bit hardy then switched to 32 bit Intrepid. [19:47] Simkin: Those are actually going to be just about the same speed for 99% of the time, because the instructions in 32-bit x86 and x86_64 are basically all operating on the same size of data. [19:47] kthxbai [19:47] can anyone here view full epsiodes from nbc.com ? do they even work ? [19:47] how do you interpret /proc/loadavg [19:48] baratman1: Okay. When that happens, can you switch to another VT, e.g., by CTRL-ALT-F2? [19:48] Hodapp: it's been shown that video conversions run about 20% faster on the same process in 64 bit. [19:48] I thought it was just a percent but its now like 2.3 [19:48] no [19:48] all blocked [19:48] kixs: It's the average number of processes waiting to run over an interval. [19:48] Simkin: I don't care what's been shown unless the source code is in front of me. [19:48] Simkin: I do care, however, that I have read in detail about the instruction set and registers of both architectures. [19:48] kixs: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Load_(computing)#Unix-style_load_calculation [19:49] not all applications run on 64bit, true?? [19:49] Hodapp: so you'll trst your best guess over practical tests? [19:49] Hodapp: ok :) [19:49] i have 4 gigs of ram and am running hardy lts 32bit. apparently ubuntu can only see 3gb of ram. how can i easily fix this? [19:49] is there a package I can install that will give me a gpg-signed personal repository on my LAN? [19:49] Simkin: I will trust practical tests when the source code is in front of me. [19:49] Hi. I'm having trouble getting my ATI card to work on 9.04, I've installed the drivers from the binary provided from AMD, but when I reboot it fails and now i can't use neither the proprietary nor the open source driver [19:49] abuchbinder i cannot do anything else... keyboard will not rspond [19:49] darkjackaho: you can get most 32 bit apps to run in 64 bit with getlibs and the ia32 library [19:49] darkjackaho: that is they run 32 bit on a 64 bit OS. [19:49] Simkin: As it happens, I've done practical tests too, and interestingly they line up with exactly what one would predict if, instead of just reaidng marketing hype, you look at the architectures. [19:49] there is no really good reason not to use 64bit anymore. [19:49] so may it's better 32bits. [19:50] darkjackaho: I am on 64-bit and the only things that have given me trouble are Flash and possibly Java. [19:50] same here [19:50] Java seems to be sorted out. [19:50] Hodapp: i do not beleive you because that contradicts the results of my tests. [19:50] now i go dinner, see u then... thankyou all [19:50] darkjackaho: if you are a newbie I'd say 32 bit. If you aren't afraid of a few glitches and building your own software and you use standard stuff, go 64 bit. [19:50] Simkin: Show me tests and show me source code. [19:50] Hey, anyone know how I can make Nautilus forget where it positions icons on the desktop? Right now when I mount new volumes they appear in the /weirdest/ places on my desktop, where I had positioned them before :/ [19:50] why does the source code matter. [19:50] use transcode to convert video in 32 bit [19:50] abuchbinder thxs [19:50] then switch to 64bit partition and do it again [19:50] Hodapp: to be fair, Flash and Java aren't exactly a bundle of joy in 32-bit either ;-) [19:50] 64bit is faster. [19:51] gordonjcp: You make a good point. [19:51] baratman1: Try installing dontzip to enable CTRL-ALT-BACKSPACE to restart X. http://albertomilone.com/wordpress/?p=335 [19:51] baratman1: Also, when it's frozen, can you ping it from another machine? [19:51] 64-bit has no real advantage, unless you have more than 4GB of RAM [19:51] abuchbinder havent tried to ping it... [19:52] Simkin: The source code matters because then I can eliminate other factors that would make 64-bit faster that have nothing to do with 64-bit - like code that is written like shit for 32-bit but is good for 64-bit. [19:52] I can't type lettle 's' in gnome-terminal but I can type it in other gnome editors, anyone can tell me why? [19:52] hello everybody [19:52] baratman1: Having been dealing with my own hard-freeze problem (since Hardy!), I strongly recommend trying to ping it from another host. This will tell you if the whole thing is frozen, or if it's just X becoming unresponsive. [19:52] i have a problem [19:52] Hodapp: if you say so [19:52] can anyone recommend a good radio streaming service like last.fm that I can use in canada? I'd subscribe for last.fm, but they won't even take my credit card, pandora's also US only :/ [19:52] abuchbinder: will do, but I think X got screwed up when upgrading [19:52] can anyone help me [19:53] thanks a lot [19:53] eurythmia: playlist.com? [19:53] yuci308: can't help if you don't tell us your problem [19:53] ok [19:53] how do I get tracker to index my thunderbird emails? Intrepid 8.10. [19:53] gordonjcp: I don't much like that a full-screen flash video that's just being scaled from a pretty low resolution up to 1440x900 can bring an Athlon64 to its knees. [19:53] anyone help please? [19:53] i have ubuntu 9.04 [19:53] I can't type lettle 's' in gnome-terminal but I can type it in other gnome editors, anyone can tell me why?

[19:56] meuserj: deborphan [19:56] mhhh... dbus-daemon is stuck.... [19:56] meuserj: But make sure you understand what you're doing; by default, it just looks for libraries, but you can have it get rid of extra -doc, -dev, -dbg, -common, etc. packages. [19:57] fokitol, perhaps pavucontrol [19:57] I can't type lettle 's' in gnome-terminal but I can type it in other gnome editors, anyone can tell me why?

[19:58] fokitol: can you help me [19:58] I accidentaly deleted linux-headers-2.6.27-7-generic from usr/src, how can i get it back [19:58] gene420: you may find you need to convert that to another format before you can edit reliably [19:59] shadeslayer: e.g., "while true; do sleep 5; date; date >> sensors.log; sensors >> sensors.log; done" [19:59] meuserj: deborpahn outputs a list what yo do with it is up to you [19:59] Guest70981, sudo apt-get install linux-headers-2.6.27-7-generic [19:59] abuchbinder, just curious, are you spitting out those results from google, or have you actually used them before? [19:59] !clone | meuserj [19:59] meuserj: To replicate your packages selection on another machine (or restore it if re-installing), you can type « aptitude --display-format '%p' search '?installed!?automatic' > ~/my-packages », move the file "my-packages" to the other machine, and there type « sudo xargs aptitude --schedule-only install < my-packages ; sudo aptitude install » - See also !automate [19:59] meuserj: Ah; I see. [20:00] erUSUL: ah, thanks [20:00] eurythmia: Well, I'd used playlist.com before, but the others, only briefly. I suppose I *am* just tossing out results from Google (well, Wikipedia) at this point. [20:00] yuci308: I searched for flash in package manager, and uninstalled everything ( the konqueror installer failed ). then I closed all browsers and installed everything again. [20:00] Salve a tutti! :D [20:00] abuchbinder, I appreciate the effort, but if that's what I'd wanted, I would do it myself. I'm looking for *recommended* services.

[20:04] I'm unable to get the Gnome Bluetooth panel to find any devices on my UNR 9.04 install on a HP Mini 1030NR, bluetooth drivers seem to be picked up in dmesg [20:05] dbus-daemon is stuck...... how do i restart it, this server has no reboot... i really need this server up.... [20:05] SpenserJ: Ah, I've just set it up myself. [20:05] losher: apt and aptitude will offer to uninstall automatically installed packages later when nothing depends on them. [20:05] SpenserJ: We're talking about the single-sign-on Apache auth plugin, right? [20:06] hi, a friend of mine upgraded from 8.10 to 9.04 but answered no when asked if he wanted to update grub. How can he easily update it afterwards?

I am needing to use single-sign-on for Drupal and Moodle... so we are looking to use CAS with LDAP authentication [20:06] SpenserJ: For the CAS package, go here. http://packages.debian.org/sid/libapache2-mod-auth-cas Download and install the package for your architecture. [20:06] abuchbinder: Got a forum post about it here http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1144181 [20:07] abuchbinder: I also need help on setting up the server though ;) [20:07] gartral1: sudo /etc/init.d/dbus restart ? [20:07] glitsj16: That'll restart X as well, just so you know. [20:08] SpenserJ: I'm clueless about setting up the server; I just set up my local copy of Trac to use the client. Let me point you to the developers... [20:08] Hello all, is there a good free graphic design program available for ubuntu? Something along the lines of photoshop, though it does not need to be quite as complex as photoshop...

[20:09] cratel, SpenserJ, erUSUL: Well, for once there seems to be agreement... Thanks guys... [20:09] meuserj: then somewhere there must be something tracking whether something was manually or automatically installed. You 'just' have to find & tweak it [20:10] SpenserJ: Remember, though, that the *clients* only need to know that they're signing on to CAS. It doesn't matter (to the client's configuration) which server backend you're using. [20:10] abuchbinder: Thanks... been reading through that. I think I just have a version mismatch or something. Going to see if I can just start fresh [20:11] abuchbinder: yeah, I know that too :D But any time I hit up http://server/cas, it freezes, however it should be forwarding to http://server:8080/cas/login [20:11] abuchbinder: Thanks for your help though!

[20:59] Sexuntu its not a question :p [20:59] Hi guys [20:59] Its my error [20:59] Ghoti: its not making the link [20:59] Dulak: great idea! I'll do that right now [20:59] to which someone sees it and may reply with a anser to fix it [20:59] Sexuntu: How'd you get that error? [20:59] Ghoti: I am on the command line [20:59] whatw app can dump streaming video besides mplayer ? [20:59] by putting nautilus in terminal [21:00] zim: so when you reboot there's no link in /Data?

[21:00] that's odd [21:00] Dam i gtg be back in a min [21:00] ienorand: i can't get vlc to work [21:00] him, gparted i guess, tho it might not be able to boot. some usb sticks cant [21:00] macman_: could always check flashgot for ff [21:00] Is /tmp on Ubuntu server on the disk or is it in virtual memory. Also, is it cleared via a cron job? [21:00] I installed ubuntu 8.10 (because 9.04 doesn't work) server and then installed xorg fvwm-crystal.

I failed googling.

[21:01] Dulak: indeed it was :) [21:01] gartral: its a printer [21:01] tsimpson: /Data/Documents /Data/Pictures are real places [21:01] hey folks, gotta pretty serious bug here that i believe is the same as one of the many xserver-xorg-video-intel reported bugs... I get an unrecoverable lockup randomly where mouse is still active but nothing else is, and when coming back from screensaver... ctrl+alt+backspace does nothing, and I have to hard reboot. I thought this was fixed in the latest xserver-xorg-video-intel, but im using 2.7.0 and am still getting issues [21:02] !dontzap | joshjtl [21:02] joshjtl: 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. [21:02] joshjtl: that'll fix C-A-BkSp [21:02] Ghoti: found someone who did it: http://blog.alexrybicki.com/2009/02/how-to-install-notify-osd-in-intrepid.html [21:02] /Data/Documents/My \Pictures --> /Data/Pictures [21:02] Ghoti rememberme?? aa1?? [21:02] zim: but /Data/Documents is a share right? [21:03] Dulak: I tried that method, but it fails on the compile, asking for a package that.. isn't there.. Looks like a mono / C# package [21:03] Gabrys: no luck. I dowloaded the rt73 package from the web on this pc and ran it on the ubuntu system now what plz [21:03] Dulak: I'll look again now that I have backports though [21:03] tsimpson: yes a samba share out not in [21:03] darkjackaho: Hello again :) [21:03] tracker just came up and said the index was corrupted... what do i do? [21:03] ly: you need the package with dependencies, also you don't "run" a package [21:04] zim: so the samba share is mounted to /Data/Documents, and My\ Pictures is a folder in the share? just so I understand [21:04] ly: maybe you should just have a different card :) [21:04] tsimpson: I then map z:\ to share [21:04] Ghoti: hi there, i've now my (as new) hand... so, for u why using opera i got problem streaming with vlc?? [21:04] firefox is consuming 80% of cpu how come? [21:04] i downloaded rt73-common [21:04] tsimpson: its not a samba mount but a samba share [21:05] mercutio22: in short, gecko is being a resource hog [21:05] hy everyone. im on ubuntu 8.04 i32. decided to take a chance with 9 i64, so i will do a fresh install. trhought the installation menu, when goes to the disk partitioning part, it dont shows me the option to change the partitions. only help, undo and finalize [21:05] windows is mounting it [21:05] i installed it with the package manager [21:05] tsimpson: I think that he is sharing /data/documents as a samba share, not that he is mounting a remote system on /data/docs [21:05] mercutio22: javascript really drives firefox up on cpu [21:05] Im having an issue on ubuntu can some one help me solve this?

With Amarok2, YouTube and Amarok2 cannot co-exist at the same time. If I have audio on one, the other errors out or plays nothing at all. With Exaile, though, Exaile and YouTube can co-exist just fine. Why is this?? [21:05] everytime i scroll down the screen chops up [21:06] maybe you have some appelets in the whitelist,they dont go down well with a system sometimes. [21:06] this happends in all app mostly fire fox [21:06] and PDF [21:06] zim: Can you pastebin teh output of mount [21:06] Roasted: becaus amarok locks the audio device so nothing else may use it, if i remember correctly [21:06] !ask | Pici [21:06] Pici: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line, so others can read and follow it easily).

[21:07] lololololol [21:07] rasheed: turn off smooth scrolling in the firefox prefs and see if that helps, mine chops up when I have that enabled [21:07] Sexuntu: Please don't do that. [21:07] Ghoti: i would prefer an actual fix to the issue [21:07] Sorry i dident know if it would work [21:07] nmvictor> which whitelist? How can I check for that? [21:07] gartral - I was running amarok on 8.10 just fine with youtube. However, when I loaded "amarok" on 9.04 I got amarok2. Okay, fine. But now it doesn't work... So I dont see what changed with amarok vs amarok2, and I'm curious to know why exaile works while amarok2 doesnt.... but why would amarok2 lock the device? I can only see that pissing people off and not using it. [21:07] Any good web-browser other than Firefox3 available for Ubuntu amd64?

Still no dice :( [21:12] Ok. Can I just go into /var/logs/(whatever log I want to clear) and just delete it or is there some other procedure? I haven't been able to really find anything online that answers the question. [21:12] zim: it could do, I mean who knows what windows does when it encounters a file it can't get any information on [21:12] Ubuntu111111: echo " " > thelog.file [21:13] hi all [21:13] i just installed 9.04, firefox is asking me to install missing plugins. Which one should i choose, Adobe Flash Player, or SWFdec SWF Player? [21:13] Ubuntu111111: you can just remove it.. it will be recreated afaik [21:13] i use adobe flash player [21:13] ultras: adobe [21:13] ultras: Go to terminal and... sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree [21:13] but try the package manager for it [21:13] ultras: it's a matter of taste; that's why you're presented with the choice.

[21:15] zim: it may see the file, but it won't be anything windows knows about [21:15] i just installed adeonis on a ubuntu laptop. i moved the credentials file from the desktop, onto a flash drive for backup. i rebooted, the file is no longer on the laptop's desktop. i'm going to keep that file as backup in case the laptop gets stolen. will adeonis function without that credentials file on the laptop ? it looks suspicous if i must keep it there [21:15] Java applets*** [21:15] I was planning on deleting them all. Does the procedure for deleting the log files change depending on which log file you want to deleat? [21:15] Ubuntu111111: you prob need to be root to do it [21:15] I am root. [21:15] Ubuntu111111: Try in terminal sudo rm -rf /var/logs/* [21:15] for all. [21:15] no [21:16] Dulak, well, iv made this thought. went nornal through intallation, when it comes to disk detecting, it asks to activate sata devices, i choosed yes. So on the next screen, i should have 4 options, but i got only 3. the 2nd line is empty. o got help. undo and finalize, but the manual option isnt avaiable [21:16] just finished loading my music collection on my external usb drive all 1 terrabyte of music lol ill be here till next year listening to it all lol [21:16] Dulak: Promising; there are some deps on that list I'm installing now.

[21:16] actually, im on the ubuntu instalation i wanna replace right now [21:16] can I ask a question [21:16] Ghoti: make sure you manually delete the notify-osd dir and start from scratch, I read in the comments that fixed it for someone [21:16] ask away [21:16] Ubuntu111111: what/where is the log file and how are you becoming root? [21:16] coleys: urgh, that's probably not a good idea. also, it's /var/log [21:16] Ubuntu111111: If you'd like to use gui to delete the logs... Alt + f2 --> gksu nautilus /var/logs/ [21:17] coleys: still, i really wouldn't suggest deleting the entire log directory. [21:17] dtcrshr: that's kinda weird that it won't let you do a manual partition, I've never had that happen myself [21:17] He's asking how, im just helping. [21:17] i cant set a screenshot bcause its on the instal... aint got a camera [21:17] damn it [21:17] ahuehaue [21:18] will take ages for me to make a distro upgrade [21:18] dtcrshr: Applications > Acessories > Screenshot [21:18] cant i do it manually [21:18] coleys, on the installation screen? [21:18] dtcrshr: None, desktop version ? =( [21:18] coleys: but removing /var/log won't just delete "the log files", but also all the subdirectories, and i doubt they all get recreated automatically and correctly [21:18] Ubuntu111111: command line is you friend try to learn it it makes life very fast and easy [21:18] coleys, nevermind [21:18] LjL: Yeah, im bad. =/ [21:18] Anyone here dealt with a dell mini 9 and the "AC adapter diables when battery reaches 100% charge" issue?

[21:46] GAAHH, I hate this keyboard!!!!! [21:46] iD4rK; and your fix was to uninstalll Flash and install from Adobe? [21:46] I'm not flooding, it's this damn keyboard [21:46] oh, sorry, it was a bot [21:46] I apologize for that [21:46] huh that sucked, all my mounts vanished, is that supposed to happen on reboot? [21:46] Heh. [21:46] !ohmy | nukey [21:46] nukey: Please remember that all Ubuntu IRC channels share the same attitude of providing friendly and polite interaction with all users of all ages and cultures. Basically, this means no foul language and no abuse towards others. [21:46] well, it first din't work. then i removed the flashplugin-nonfree and later i installed the adobe-flashplugin and it worked. just make sure to restart firefox so it loads the new plugin [21:46] nukey did u say i can to me?

[21:47] iD4rK; I did a complete removal of packages for flash through Synaptic [21:47] gartral do u know how to check the max burn peed of a drive? [21:47] psychic: most cd burners will pick the right speed (although going slower means it's burnt a little "darker", it's not normally worth it these days) [21:47] How does one deselect all packages which are selected but not installed using dselect, dpkg, apt-get or aptitude? [21:47] Hey guys - Anybody familiar with adding themes to Exaile Media Player? [21:48] o [21:48] The web page says "bluetooth works out of the box". But it doesn't. The logs, they show nothing.

[21:48] i am using k3b it does atuo but tere is not a max setting [21:48] scribawf: make sure you closed firefox, and try to only install the "adobe-flashplugin" and see what happens [21:48] iratix: I'm having trouble finding a package too. https://help.ubuntu.com/9.04/keeping-safe/C/backup-files.html says to use hubackup, but that package doesn't exist, apparently O.o [21:48] hey guys, i have a terrible problem with my frash ubuntu 9.04 install [21:48] shubbar: no, with the alternate cd, you can upgrade an existing system [21:49] h2g2bob whats not worth it higher burn speed? [21:49] iD4rk; think I should download direct from Adobe the deb package that is? [21:49] BlueHotDog: Probably best to say exactly what the problem is. If someone can help you they will do so.

[21:53] iD4rK: xmms had security issues, xmms2 is a completly different animal [21:53] h2g2bob, I mean, in aptitude curses screen, I hit something, and now a bunch of packages are set to pi, instead of p. I hit whatever it was when exiting, so I can't just 'undo' last. [21:53] Ghoti: sorry i took that out on you..., [21:53] I _Really_ hate to ask any questions in here .... but , I'm getting Failed to fetch http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/gutsy-updates/multiverse/source/Sources.gz 404 Not Found [IP: 91.189.92.46 80], on almost every attempt when doing apt-get update...

[21:53] gartral - have you played with amarok2? [21:53] psychic: xmms2 runs amazingly [21:53] I am trying to connect my cell phone to my computer to transfer files. How can I access it? [21:53] DouglasK: just quitting (q) seems to forget that packages selected for install [21:54] hola [21:54] gartral: yeah, but xmms2 is already to complicated [21:54] Roasted: i have, its pretty, and floofy, but eats my resources [21:54] gartral will try [21:54] thanks [21:54] gartral - have you tried usign amarok2 + youtube at once? [21:54] iD4rK: whats complicated about it? [21:54] anyone here know a mouse recorder that works with ubuntu? [21:54] anyways, how come ubuntu recognizes my sound card but i have no sound? they're not muted. [21:54] what is the terminal command for installing xmms2 [21:54] its based on client/server [21:54] People, there are one thousand and a half of you on this channel. And none is using gfxboot? [21:54] iratix: looks like it might be a problem in your sources.list. Also, was gutsy LTS? Is it still supported? [21:54] Roasted: yea... amarok tries to lock the dsp so nothing else can use it, its not very friendly [21:55] I am trying to connect my cell phone to my computer to transfer files. How can I access it? [21:55] !find xmms2 [21:55] Found: gkrellxmms2, gxmms2, wmxmms2, xmms2, xmms2-client-avahi (and 48 others) [21:55] just give him a app and keep it simple lol [21:55] psychic: sudo apt-get install xmms2 [21:55] psychic: sudo apt-get install PAXCKAGENAME [21:55] gartral - I loved amarok, but amarok2 just pees me off in that regards with what you mentioned with the DSP. I don't understand how making that move would be a good idea. I can't imagine people are like aw sweet now I cant watch youtube with amarok2 open!! [21:55] h2g2bob, I know... but now it says 828 will use 42.7Gb of disk space.... and that's after quitting and reopening. [21:56] Roasted: the idea was simple; people open amarok to enjoy their music and dont want to be bothered by system sounds [21:56] Hello, I am using ubuntu 9.04 and installed the nvidia 180 grapic driver. Every time my system starts its in 1024x768 resoultion. Its capable of running in 1400x900 and i usually change it to that via nvidia-settings. I have tried to save the xconf but it still reverts. Any suggestions? [21:56] I am trying to connect my cell phone to my computer to transfer files. How can I access it? [21:56] dr_willis thanks i thought there was a pttern to sudo apt-gets [21:57] illumin8: you are running the nvidia-settings tool as root? are you using a DVI or VGA connected monitor? (use dvi if you can) [21:57] gartral - Okay, I'll go halfway. I can see that. But what about somebody like me who leaves amarok open 247 and may bounce over to watch a youtube video? I have to close amarok? That should be something that could be disabled/enabled. [21:57] Of course it wasn't LTS ... if it were ... i would ... [21:57] Roasted: but, as many things that sound good in concept, it stinks in implementation [21:57] sigh ... [21:57] illumin8: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Config/Resolution [21:57] psychic: of course theres a pattern. :) [21:57] I am trying to connect my cell phone to my computer to transfer files. How can I access it? [21:57] i love the g15 plugin for audacious, its so sweet to have that very nice equalizer on the lcd :D [21:57] dr_willis, dvi is correct [21:57] i'm just so frustrated... i think FTP server... i will come down .. this should take 10 minutes... 2.5 hours later [21:57] yar... [21:57] Roasted: xmms2 is an audio server that is ALWAYS running, even when not playi [21:57] iratix: I wasn't trying to inspire a facepalm, I'm just brainstoriming here [21:58] illumin8: also each 'user' can have their own mode setting. so its possible that user, somehow selected a lower res. [21:58] that's what i don't like about xmms2 why the hell did they do server/client [21:58] !info xmms2 [21:58] xmms2 (source: xmms2): Client/server based media player system.

I love having a media player that is spacious and uses my entire 2nd monitor... [21:59] Roasted: xmms2 is a 'server' you run clients that connect to it. [21:59] dr_willis - I don't mean tos ound like an idiot... but what does that accomplish, essentially? [21:59] iratix: you could also try altering your repos to those in another region that might still have the file(s) you need [21:59] Roasted: xmms2 itself is a daemon, and you never see it running unless you specifically call to it with a command, but there are guis that look nice [21:59] Roasted: it lets other machines on the lan connect I guess. I never bother with it. [21:59] OMG ... gutsy isn't even there anymore [21:59] dr_willis, when i click system>administration>display. I get this message "It appears that your graphics driver does not support the necessary extensions to use this tool. Do you want to use your graphics driver vendor's tool instead?"

[22:02] I wanted a media player.... [22:02] dr_willis - yeah, cause I have them. ;) [22:02] Roasted: theres dozens of 'media' players other then xmms2 [22:02] Roasted: dude, just get rid of that xmms2, the only thing you can do is have a full screen console [22:02] Andrijeski: right-click the panel and make sure that 'lock panel position' isn't enabled [22:02] lmao [22:02] rox [22:02] dr_willis, ill reboot and see if it loads now, thanks again :) [22:02] iD4rK - I see that now. uninstalling... [22:02] iD4rK: there are client guis, thats what he needs [22:02] if you enjoy fullscreen mp's get rythmbox [22:02] .kast sexuntu [22:02] Ghoti , the panel is full with stuff so I can't get that option [22:03] oops [22:03] Roasted: you can install xmms2tray and THAT will give you an icon [22:03] meh, I'll pass [22:03] he want's a full screen media player [22:03] yeah I want something comparable to exaile and amarok [22:03] Roasted: i recommend keeping xmms2, nothing can compare in sound quality [22:03] I like exaile but I'd like to figure out how to get themes installed [22:04] gartral - in the brief instance I heard with xmms2, I didn't notice anything that would dictate better sound quality [22:04] all that was introduced was a lack of interface [22:04] Andrijeski: close a couple of applications for a couple moments to free up some room? [22:04] Roasted: thats cause the default file is a crappy quality ogg [22:04] Yeah, well, whatever... I'm not going to use it. [22:04] Ghoti , thanks, that fixed the problem [22:04] :) [22:05] Roasted: whatever floats your boat.. fire up the package manager and start looking. :) [22:05] but I'm still wondering, if there's an option for this [22:05] gartral: lmao, i told you that xmms2 is not what this guy needed [22:05] so I don't have to close stuff [22:05] Andrijeski: \o/ Happy to help :) [22:05] :] [22:05] does anyone know why the memotest program that comes with jaunty won't run/how I can make it run? Grub raises the error "selected item cannot fit into memory" but that obviously isn't the case. [22:05] dr_willis - did you vote for xmms2 or did you have another one you liked? [22:05] Andrijeski: yes, once the panel is wher eyou want it, right click it and select 'Lock Panel Position' [22:05] Roasted: try them all. [22:05] Roasted: i rarely listen to music [22:06] iD4rK: and i was trying to recommend something that is lighter, more responsive, and better quality than what he was looking at [22:06] is there any difference from the netbook remix and the ubuntu desktop other than the gui? [22:06] whodevil: yes. [22:06] whodevil: yes, UNR is based off of easypeasy...

[23:34] Anyone know whether or not to set my current /home partition as such in the installer or just wait until later and edit fstab? [23:34] if anyone can help; my UBUNTU LTS 86/64bit version is having problems, freezes crashes and even flash and java fail after visiting myspace. when updating i have to restart up to ten times to get to open anything, and once or twice a shell opened up upon restart saying that it could not start my GUI. please help! [23:34] dylnuge: You can do it either way [23:34] it does only burning from iso on. I have the new 9.04 netbook.img file that i'd like to burn onto a DVD [23:34] Hi, I installed Jaunty a couple days ago, and it's recently started occasionally making a very annoying buzzing noise over the top of sounds -- for example, Pidgin notification sounds or music tracks (rarely). It doesn't do it very often, and it only lasts for as long as whatever particular sound is playing (one track, one notification sound, etc.). Any ideas what the problem could be? [23:34] dylnuge: During the installer is easier, obviously. [23:34] this is unrelated to ubuntu, but i can't get a decent response from my other channels so : anyone know of a customizable 18.4 in or 17 in laptop? (WITHOUT glossy screen, meaning strictly matte).. i can't stand the shine.. lol [23:34] k3b does not allow me to copy or extract from img to iso [23:34] nellmathew: go to dell.com and look perhaps? [23:34] hi, i need help with installing nvidia fx5500 in ubuntu 9.04, i tried envy, i tried resttricted drivers, nothing worked [23:35] dr_willis, Flannel: Thanks. Assumed as much, just making sure that the installer wouldn't override the existing files. [23:35] Would it be wise to make the / partition ext4 if I'm keeping /home the same as it is (ext3)? [23:35] ftp://ftp.klid.dk/ubuntu-cd/releases/9.04/ubuntu-9.04-netbook-remix-i386.img [23:35] Im new to Ubuntu all together, and installed 9.04. I have no sound. Im using a USB Headset and when i goto the sound options (system->preferences->sound) I select my headphones and test the sound and it works along with my mic. But there is no sound anywhere else. (Not from the OS, or any other program). Possible someone can point me in the right direction :D [23:36] dylnuge: /home gets marked as used (as /home), but not to format. [23:36] Flannel: i know youre an expert in things [23:37] how could you extract an img and archive it to iso [23:37] Ive also installed all the drivers and updated everything that i know of. [23:37] Flannel: Thanks. Any opinion on using ext4 on / with ext3 on /home? [23:37] calwig: Why do you need an iso of it? [23:37] dylnuge: I don't, It shouldn't be a problem, if that's what you're asking. [23:37] well i cant seem to burn it on to a dvdrw properly, it wont boot === johnny is now known as Guest37869 [23:38] Flannel: Thanks! [23:38] how can I install openoffice3 in ubuntu 8.04 LTS? [23:38] Flannel: the netbook remix only allows to extract to USB with usb-imagewriter [23:39] sudo apt-get openoffice3 [23:40] Is openoffice3 even in backports for 8.04 ? [23:40] nop [23:40] calwig: As far as I can tell, the img is the same as an iso. Have you tried renaming it to .iso and burning to the DVD? [23:40] hi all [23:40] Im new to Ubuntu all together, and installed 9.04. I have no sound. Im using a USB Headset and when i goto the sound options (system->preferences->sound) I select my headphones and test the sound and it works along with my mic. But there is no sound anywhere else. (Not from the OS, or any other program). Possible someone can point me in the right direction :D [23:41] Flannel: the Netbook img file? are you sure, i renamed it and then tried it and didnt work, let me try again brb [23:41] i've installed ubuntu 9.04 on my laptop and i had to blacklist pcspkr in modprobe.d because the system beep was way to noisy, but now the builtin volume controls and mute button aren't working, any idea how to solve this? [23:41] anyone had a problem with ext4 in 9.04 ? [23:42] calwig: well, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UNR#From%20commandline%20with%20dd uses dd to write to the flash drive, and an iso is just a dd'd image of a CD [23:42] dmitriy: There are caveats regarding ext4 in the Jaunty release notes. [23:42] !notes | dmitriy [23:42] dmitriy: Ubuntu 9.04 (Jaunty Jackalope) release notes can be found here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/JauntyJackalope/ReleaseNotes [23:42] darcshado: you've been asked already probably ... but did you check your mixer to see if things are unmuted properly ? [23:42] heeyy [23:42] hi === Guest37869 is now known as dentone [23:42] i have a little problem here [23:42] i've installed ubuntu 9.04 on my laptop and i had to blacklist pcspkr in modprobe.d because the system beep was way to noisy, but now the builtin volume controls and mute button aren't working, any idea how to solve this? [23:42] ok go ahead [23:42] Flannel: ok thanks going to read [23:43] everything is unmuted [23:43] i´ve installed ubuntu in mmy pc , later i put all graphics effects. And them i need change again because i´cant see the windows .. how i do this???? [23:44] can you see anything [23:44] Ubuntu_Sl: which graphic card you've got? [23:44] darcshado: http://www.ubuntugeek.com/sound-solutions-for-ubuntu-904-jaunty-users.html might be worth taking a look at [23:44] hi, i need help with installing nvidia fx5500 in ubuntu 9.04, i tried envy, i tried resttricted drivers, nothing worked [23:45] ¡!Magician!¡: yes, only the begin. If i click in one icon.. everything is black , i see nothing more [23:45] anyone know if there is a .deb package for an ext4 defrag? [23:45] LEL: Can you help with this one [23:45] thank you glitsj16 [23:45] hi [23:45] hey furtano [23:45] I'm running 9.04 x64, launching Thunderbird totally locks up my system, I have to hard shut down and then restart [23:45] hi [23:46] LOL, hai goose [23:46] LOL Adremelech|Lapto! what's up?

Does anyone else have this bug/is there any way I can fix it? [23:48] um dont have this bug...have you tried the obvious already such as reinstalling it? [23:48] yes [23:48] through repositories, and terminal [23:48] mmm anything interesting in the logs goose? [23:48] hi, i need help with installing nvidia fx5500 in ubuntu 9.04, i tried envy, i tried resttricted drivers, nothing worked [23:48] michael__, where should I look for them? [23:48] Flannel: i just renamed the netbook file from .img to .iso, then started k3b to burn iso image and says it cant read file. Its md5sum confirmed, ive got it running on an USB i need it however on a DVD hmmmm [23:48] hi, anyone know where i can put custom JAR files in java-6-sin? [23:49] Hey, my computer was unresponsive (Ubu 8.10) when I came back, both my monitors were not turning on and the hard drive light was NOT doing anything.. I tried many key shortcuts to restart X, etc, nothing worked. I figured I kernel panic'd around 4:00 (It's 6:49 now) [23:49] i tried making ~/jar and putting that in the CLASSPATH, but it didn't work [23:49] I recently upgraded my video drivers from 177 to 180 [23:49] I think that might be the culprit. [23:49] Does Ubuntu have some sort of crash log that I can look at? [23:50] is it ok to dd copy a mounted hd? or do I have to unmount it first? [23:50] calwig: rename it to .iso and see if virtualbox can boot it.. [23:50] i have a question..who else here has a sylvania ubuntu laptop? the new ones or w.e [23:50] Any ideas?... [23:50] hi all, i have a problem, when i move windows, they move kinda choppy, i suppose that's a video driver problem, what do i have to do? [23:51] dole using xfce? [23:51] ubuntu [23:51] calwig, if its netbook .img you are talkin about. a simple dd will work [23:51] mmm what are you video settings at?

[23:51] deany: dd will indeed extract/copy to dvd, however when i boot, the dvd is not recognized upon boot [23:52] coleys i have the latest restricted for nvidia [23:52] calwig, I just made a fat partition and dd if=/image.img of=/dev/usb-partition bs=1024 [23:52] DOLE: 180? [23:52]  Hi,  i have a porblem with booting my system and see this eror:"grub loading,eror 22", help me please [23:52] coleys version 180 [23:52] calwig: Can't you just install using the regular CD (or the minimal or alternate CD) and then convert to UNR later? [23:52] coleys :D [23:52] what is a good irc server to chat ? [23:52] DOLE: Using emerald ? [23:52] coleys no, metacity [23:52] hum... [23:53] calwig, then I guess your usb isnt capable of booting.. some aint [23:53] Hey does Ubuntu have a crash log? [23:53] coleys i think this has always happened to me, it's a little less choppy when i disable compiz [23:53] DOLE: visual effects on extra, or middle =p (forget the option) [23:53] coleys in the live cd, it was really smootk [23:53] which application was for showing processes in ubuntu [23:53] coleys smooth [23:53] Or something that logs... anything... in Ubuntu 8.10 [23:53] convy ? [23:53] Flannel: mmm the regular CD of ubuntu or netbook? i cant find a CD for netbook, much less an iso [23:53] coleys i have it on custom.. very basic effects, very basic stuff [23:53] if anyone can help; my UBUNTU LTS 86/64bit version is having problems, freezes crashes and even flash and java fail after visiting myspace. when updating i have to restart up to ten times to get to open anything, and once or twice a shell opened up upon restart saying that it could not start my GUI. please help! [23:53] H_M-Ubuntu, most logs are in /var/log might want to check there [23:54] coleys any ideas? [23:54] DOLE: Hum, any weird custom effects? [23:54] eseven73, thanks.. My system kernel panic'd (I think) and I want to check [23:54]  Hi,  i have a porblem with booting my system and see this eror:"grub loading,eror 22", help me please [23:54] calwig: A regular CD for Ubuntu. UNR only comes in the img file I believe (because its too big to fit on a CD) === Chronixbot is now known as tater [23:54] coleys i don't think so, i don't use animations, only fade, minimize effect, scale, screenshot. and other tiny ones [23:54] deany: USB stick boots with Netbook, perfectly fine, recognizes BT, WIFI, the works, then id like to install it again on the same USB stick, but its not possible === alybabe356 is now known as tight === tight is now known as TightPussy [23:55] install ON it? [23:55] DOLE: Whats your resolution? Does it correspond to your screensize? gDesklets or screenlets? [23:55] coleys i read somewhere to activate vsync to blank, i activated in compiz and nvidia x config and it's a little better but still choppy [23:55] i have an install of lilo that I need to configure. I googled it but suprisingly didnt find much here is a pastebin of what the installer says http://paste.ubuntu.com/161752/ [23:55] Flannel: mm ok but UNR with the new GUI is also available not necessarily from the .img file? [23:55] coleys 1680x1050 it's the native reolution of my monitor, and i don't use neither of them [23:55] deany: id like to boot from a USB [23:55] I already have one running this way [23:56] hi [23:56] but Id like the UNR 9.04 running its super fast at booting up to the desktop [23:56] DOLE: everything *should* be okay =p Reinstall your nvidia 180? [23:56] You can boot it fine to run live? but not to install from ? [23:56] coleys ok, i'll try [23:56] will require restart though =p [23:56] I dont get it [23:56] ill be here when you get back :] [23:56] coleys thanks for your help.. Ok then, bye!

[23:57] is anyone here using a monitor and a tv via svideo tv out via svideo with a nvdia card and driver 180 set to separate xscreens in 9.04? [23:57] Aha, I believe I found where the crash occurred...... [23:57] and actually have a desktop on the tv? [23:58] not just a x cursor [23:58] Apparently Compiz.real segfaulted or something [23:58] Anybody else have $TERM default to "dumb" on a new install of 9.04? [23:58] Can someone look at when the suspected crash happened in my log and tell me if they see anything that stands out? http://pastebin.com/m1d99d5c8 [23:59] is anyone here using a monitor and a tv via svideo tv out with a nvdia card and driver 180 set to separate xscreens in 9.04? the monitor is setup with a dvi cable [23:59] compiz gets old very fast H_M-Ubuntu, when you're done ga-ga'ing over the effects and finally remove it, your computer will thank you for it :) [23:59] * cjae appologizes for repeat but had grammatical error [23:59] Well the thing is... I like the effects.. and I don't use wobbly or cube or anything like that crap [23:59] I use desktop wall and shadow, and some other small things
