[00:00] soundray, i just type it in the end? [00:00] of the file that is [00:00] zce: did you run badbloks? [00:00] some_guy: You will really enjoy ubuntu better, I can guarentee =p === AndItRainedAllNi is now known as Aerodynamic [00:00] jeanne: no, if you type it after 'exit 0', it won't get run [00:00] soundray: /etc/modprobe.d/options.conf but I don't know the module name to fill in and is 'rf_kill=0' a new line? [00:00] coleys: well i've got the .iso downloaded now so i'll probably give it a go tomorrow wireless or not [00:00] I can't seem to get my webcam to work in Firefox.. any ideas? [00:00] some_guy: Also if you are running an older system... I would suggest xubuntu... Runs better on older systemss. [00:00] some_guy, have you considered installing to a USB flash drive so that you can install all the drivers/extras there too, and keep your windows? "persistant" [00:01] Anyone know which package apr-util is in? [00:01] benste: same line. Do you know the type of wifi hardware you have? [00:01] i use xubuntu even on good software [00:01] I can't seem to get my webcam to work in Firefox.. any ideas? It says to set it to "Allow".. I right click and click settings but nothing happens [00:01] soundray, well before that i meant [00:01] danopia: Me too... I love xub :p [00:01] anacranom: i had not. i wasn't planning on installing too much. just wanted to get a taste for it [00:01] _econn: Do you have universe enabled? [00:01] but when i get 9.04 i'll be using ubuntu, purely because compiz comes stock [00:01] xD\ [00:01] dsch04 packages.ubuntu.com is the quick way to find that [00:01] xubuntu is the bestttt. [00:01] How do I connect via VPN and Remote Desktop to a Windows PC at work. I can do Windows->Windows easily, but not Ubuntu->Windows. [00:01] jeanne: :) [00:01] Le-Chuck_ITA, ta! [00:01] <_econn> genii: how do I check for that? [00:01] !boot > jeanne [00:01] jeanne, please see my private message [00:01] Le-Chuck_ITA, the manpage said that is recommended to run fsck -b, which will futher call badblocks, so thats what i did [00:01] soundray some intel one, isn't it that iwl3945 which was included within the log? [00:01] Le-Chuck_ITA> in the case of high frequency load I should see my Hard Disk LED blinking a lot right? [00:01] zce: that's fine [00:02] zce: never heard of corrupted sectors in ext3 [00:02] benste: yes, that's the one [00:02] _econn: I'm currently in KDE and not Gnome so can't instruct exactly the steps. But someplace inside the Add/Remove submenus [00:02] mercutio22: High load on what? Hard drive yes. CPU no. [00:02] mercutio22: no you have to check it in the proper way :) [00:02] some_guy: Any other questions? [00:02] the laptop has 512MB ram, and a pretty slow processor. is that something I should be running xubuntu on? [00:02] Le-Chuck_ITA, Hmm, no packages found containing apr-util [00:03] Le-Chuck_ITA> ok, wilco [00:03] soundray: so "iwl3945 rf_kill=0" would be right? [00:03] MarkJones: no the infamous high disk load would perhaps not show up "at sight" [00:03] anyone know why this is? [00:03] dsch04: did you search in "all distributions?" [00:03] <_econn> genii: if I go to Software Sources application, the option "Community-maintained Open Source software (universe)" is checked [00:03] "You have searched for paths that end with apr-utils in suite jaunty, all sections, and all architectures. " [00:03] soundray, what does the rf_kill=0 do? [00:03] Oh i dont know I must have jumped in the middle at the wrong time.hehe [00:03] dsch04: maybe you installed it from an external deb [00:03] some_guy: Yeah... xubuntu would be a better choice.. It uses xfce window manager.. min 256 mb [00:03] dsch04: if you have it on *your* system then try dpkg -S /path/to/binary [00:03] NO, it's not installed [00:03] _econn: The window-manager agnostic way would be to edit the /etc/apt/sources.list and make sure the appropriate universe repository lines are not commented out, etc etc [00:03] is there any way to specify the x in /dev/sdx for hard drives? I find my drives, partially because some are external, get switched around. I have an application that only allows specifying hard drive by device (And not label or UUID), and so I can't use any of its automatic features [00:03] Hello. I am running Jaunty. I have restricted drivers for my nvidia 8400GS enabled and use the nvidia-settings to change the resolution. However each time I log in it is set back to the old one, and I have to repeat the same steps. Can anyone please help?

I dont think mine is working. [00:04] some_guy, are you using 9.04? [00:04] Damn. This is what I get for choosing a distro that's only used by amateurs. Maybe if I'd picked Red Hat, there'd be people who use Linux to do actual work, and then VPN stuff would work. [00:04] coleys: awesome. i'll definately consider it [00:04] Yes - it's needed to build subversion, amongst other things [00:04] any suggest invoicing applications for non web project [00:04] Using 9.04 upgraded from 8.10 [00:04] anacranom: not running anything yet. still not got it on a cd [00:04] i'm copying 7000 mp3 files (37gb) and it's slowing things down, (i have core 2 duo 2.0ghz, 2gb ram) is that normal? [00:05] some_guy, yes, but is it 9.04 or what? [00:05] etfb: you have to install a couple of packages whose name I don't remember, search for it in apt - it's related to "network manager" and "vpn" [00:05] grrr every time a programme using my webcam freeze it is impossible to kill [00:05] lanzelloth: yes [00:05] some_guy: It contains some different software, like ubuntu uses Open Office... while xubuntu has Abi word, gnumeric [00:05] and therefore impossible to use my webcam [00:05] witho0ut rebooting [00:05] anyone? [00:05] it feels like copying smaller number of files takes less resources [00:05] etfb: if redhat was better you'd have been using it :) [00:05] anacranom: yeah, i've got the ubuntu 9.04 .iso currently downloaded [00:05] benste: try this: 'echo iwl3945 disable_hw_scan=1 | sudo tee /etc/modprobe.d/options.conf' (slightly modified from http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1097096) [00:06] <_econn> genii: yeah, all lines from /var/apt/sources.list mentioning universe are _not_ commented..

[00:06] benste: correction [00:06] soundray = iwl3945 disable_hw_scan=1 [00:06] _econn: Maybe also check first line in there to make sure it's not stalling trying off the cd too [00:06] can somebody help me regarding fixing microphone problem in ubuntu 9.04 ? [00:06] that shouldn't be, why can't the file copier calculate file assigning operations chunk by chunk and leave the system usable [00:07] _econn: eg: DO comment out the cdrom line [00:07] anacranom: is this for installing drivers and stuff? [00:07] some_guy, no, on the live session [00:07] benste: have you done it already?

I am trying to install Ubuntu and now I need to partition my hard drive. In Windows I freed up 36 gigabytes in D-drive, but when I try this default "move slider"-mode it only gives me 11 gigabytes. Looks like it is trying to put it into C-drive and not to D-drive. How I can change this? [00:07] no, for creating a "live cd" that can be used as an install instead, some_guy [00:08] _econn: OK, looks good there then. And the machine can connect out to the internet? [00:08] anacranom: oh awesome. so you can create a livecd with the drivers on? [00:08] plz somebody help me regarding the problem of microphone in ubuntu 9.04, I do not understand how to configure it I am new to ubuntu and want to stay with it [00:08] Or do I need to use that manual partition? === Armag3dd0n is now known as Armag3ddon [00:08] Hi, I'm having a problem with Kubuntu JJ(9.04), I changed the mobo recently(from Intel P43 to AMD 790GX), everything looks to be working properly except for the network card [00:08] hi. are there a repository that I can add that still have 7.10 - Gutsy Gibbon in it? [00:08] when I run ifconfig I only see lo and virbr0(which is used by VirtualBox or so) [00:08] some_guy, then you can install drivers and such, that all you have to do is boot from the USB drive [00:08] some_guy: LiveCD includes working drivers [00:08] zoobox: Yes, old-releases.ubuntu.com or so [00:09] <_econn> genii: yeah, i have already installed gcc, xchat and manpages using apt-get [00:09] ok. I try add that as a rep then. [00:09] :( [00:09] soundray:: sorry short disconnect was there something new since 01:06 ? [00:09] anacranom: not even from the cd? how would you change the system start-up to use a usb instead of cd? [00:09] one offtopic question...I have a PC where static IP is set up but I don't know that IP...I can plug in UTP cable...how, if it is possible, can I find out which IP address is set up on that machine?

In Windows I freed up 36 gigabytes in D-drive, but when I try this default "move slider"-mode it only gives me 11 gigabytes. Looks like it is trying to put it into C-drive and not to D-drive. How I can change this or do I need to use manual partition? [00:09] Hi room, I am sorry to be a pane - I'm assuming you've already had this alot recently. Im new to Ubuntu and Linux in general and have been fiddling around for a while now trying to get Compiz to work in 9.04 can anyone help me? [00:09] _econn: What does: apt-cache policy partimage report? [00:09] *pain even I apologise for my spelling/ typing [00:10] Hey if I go to watch something on youtube it plays the music for about a second and then pretty much freezes up, no audio no video. Anyone have any ideas? [00:10] keglevich: ifconfig command is one way or scan the network with nmap is a harder way [00:10] Junafani: did you just free stuff on a drive or did you delete the drive ? [00:10] Sir_Minty, ati or nvidia? [00:10] Junafani: Doing it that way may most likely wreck your windows [00:10] some_guy, do some googling to get some "how-to's" on doing this, and the option to boot from USB will be in bios [00:10] nvidia 512 mb 8800 GTA [00:10] drwillis: what can I do with ifconfig? [00:10] soundray: the file now owns: "iwl3945 enable_hw_scan=1" [00:10] k4k4: I just freed it up in Windows [00:10] anacranom: awesome cheers :D [00:10] why there is a microphone problem in ubuntu latest release ? [00:10] keglevich: it gives the ip of all itnerfaces [00:10] So it is still in NTSF [00:10] benste2: that wasn't quite correct [00:10] <_econn> genii: it reports, Installed: (none) Candidate: (none) Version table: [00:10] Sir_Minty, sorry can't really help much with nvidia but what's the problem? [00:10] Junafani: i think it wont find free space on an windows drive (thats because its an windows parition) [00:10] Junafani: what version of windows are you using? [00:11] xp [00:11] Junafani: perhaps you can remove an parition completly ? [00:11] soundray so what now? [00:11] benste: try this: 'echo options iwl3945 disable_hw_scan=1 | sudo tee /etc/modprobe.d/options.conf' [00:11] Junafani: or use the wubi installer from windows [00:11] benste2: this will overwrite the version where "options" is missing [00:11] Junafani: 'free space' is not the same as unallocated. You need to somehow resize a parittion to allow ubuntu to install to the new 'unallocated' space. [00:11] drwillis: yeah on local machine....you didn't undrestand me...i have a machine where x-service is running on y-port and has z-ip .... how can i find out those x,y,z variables with remote access? [00:11] ok, I am about ready to rip ubuntu off my machine and go back to windows, this is becoming absurd. How do I fix the low volume issue? [00:11] keglevich: nmap/scan it. [00:11] soundray now it has "options iwl3945 disable_hw_scan=1" [00:11] Dr_willis: And ubuntu can [00:11] I am SICK and TIRED of not being able to hear anything [00:11] _econn: Very very weird [00:11] Junafani: You should shrink the drive while in Windows, instead of letting ubuntu do that. It could error your computer [00:11] Dr_willis: And ubuntu can¨t do it? [00:12] Ok [00:12] error the windows install I mean. [00:12] soundray so what exactly does this do now? [00:12] How I can do that? [00:12] drwillis: do you know the exact structure of that command nmap? [00:12] I can't seem to get my webcam to work in Firefox.. any ideas? It says to set it to "Allow".. I right click and click settings but nothing happens [00:12] Junafani: i always use a gparted live cd to do it by hand. just to be sure its how i want. The instaler is supposed to be able to do it. but i never use that feature [00:12] benste2: now try 'sudo rmmod iwl3945 ; sudo modprobe iwl3945' [00:12] or here, how do I downgrade to gutsy gibbon? [00:12] <_econn> genii: any help is appreciated.. would like me to do any more tests? [00:12] Junafani: Right click on My Computer > Manage > Disk Management [00:12] keglevich: it has 10000000+ options. check its docs.. depending on what you want to do. [00:12] well lanzelloth: just installed Ubuntu 9.04 onto my computer to try open source OS out on flat mates recommendation was very interested in the cube effect on compiz but will not work at all on packets are apparently allready on their according to manager and i have tried deleting and reinstalling and changes my graphics card drivers too. I'm out of ideas [00:12] benste2: it disables hardware scanning, which apparently interferes with it working properly. [00:12] Smokalotapotamus, i'm gonna ask the obvious questions but are all the volume settings turned up [00:13] !downgrade | Smokalotapotamus [00:13] Smokalotapotamus: Attempting to downgrade to an older Ubuntu version is explicitly not supported, and may break your system. [00:13] Coleys: Wasn't shrinking only in Vista? I have XP [00:13] lanzelloth: I have been at this for months. I have hit all the threads [00:13] hello, when installing programs, how can i get a list in kubuntu like in ubuntus package manager? like a list for all games or all chat internet programs etcetera? [00:13] Vista is MUCh better at 'shrinking' ntfs parittions i find. then ubuntu/gparted is [00:13] it is a known issue, nobody seems to be solving it [00:13] Or you can get Acronis Disk Suite or whatever it's called. It can do the same. [00:13] drwillis: so for instance i have pcs A and B....on A IP is set as 192.168.1.1 and on B IP is setup as x.x.x.x. (for instance 172.16.0.1) and that nmap can find that unknown ip B from 192.168.1.1? [00:13] <_econn> genii: very weird, when I press [tab] during apt-get install, it attempts to complete to "partimage", but, when I do apt-cache search partimage, it only finds partimage-doc.. [00:13] keglevich: you can scan the whole lan/range.. yes... [00:14] I tried installing pulse audio, now my volume control crashes when I open it. [00:14] Smokalotapotamus, is it a driver issue? [00:14] ok great [00:14] it only gets worse and worse [00:14] keglevich: do a 'ping scan' it will be faster to find the ip [00:14] keglevich: if its running samba/or has a share.. you can use nbmlookup also i think [00:14] how to do this...ping scan? [00:14] cheers guys :D cya around [00:14] Junafani: ubuntu can do this to [00:14] I don't know what it is, I have my 4.1 cranked at max, all the ubuntu sliders maxed, alsamixer maxed and I can barely hear a thing [00:14] keglevich: check the nmap docs, nmap --help, its like nmap -Sp or -sP i forget [00:14] no it doesn't run any services...just one specific port is open and PING is replying [00:14] Junafani: but take the tool you are used to [00:14] Sir_Minty, so you have ccsm and other effects work but not the cube? [00:15] Junafani: windows wants an partition and so does ubuntu [00:15] some_guy, check this out and come see me in my channel if you have questions, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LiveUsbPendrivePersistent [00:15] I upgraded to jackalope HOPING it would be solved, no luck [00:15] when i alt+ F2 ccsm does not appear a valid entry [00:15] Sir_Minty: What do you mean? [00:16] soundray, my laptop freezed horribly blinking :-) [00:16] Sir_Minty: try 'sudo apt-get install compizconfig-settings-manager' [00:16] nicklas_: dpkg -l [00:16] i mean my packet manager states it is downlaoded but when it ry to run it its not in prefrences and says no directory found [00:16] soundray, so now I'm finished? [00:16] Sir_Minty: System > Preferences > Compiz Config Settigns Manager === JiYu is now known as Jiyu_ [00:17] hi, I just got ubuntu. where do I go to connect to a wireless internet? [00:17] !wireless | Hiro2 [00:17] Hiro2: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs [00:17] benste: you can always find out whether the iwl3945 supports any other options that might fix your problem [00:17] Hiro2: look up wifi driver wrappers, that fixed it for me [00:17] where's Le-Chuck? [00:17] it says the directory does not exist [00:18] <_econn> genii: can I navigate through the universe package repository using a web browser? [00:18] smoka: I don't even know where to go to connect :( [00:18] Hiro2: icons top right.. [00:18] soundray, this piece of f... s... disconnected againsoundray, this piece of f... s... disconnected again [00:18] Dr_Willis: wow, this is embarrasing :P thanks [00:18] Hiro2: if not top right, check system>preferences>network connections [00:19] benste1: don't let your frustration ruin your good manners. [00:19] :-) [00:19] _econn: Yes [00:19] Sir_Minty, run the terminal and type ccsm [00:19] soundray, so do you have any other clue? [00:19] <_econn> genii: how can I get to it? [00:19] benste1: there might be other options to the iwl3945 driver that might help [00:20] how do i make applications launch as soon as i log in? how do i do it graphically? if possible [00:20] why does girls have that brown skin on their ass hole? [00:20] lanzelloth: have done and states could not locate file no such file or directory [00:20] jeanne: System > Preferences > Startup [00:20] Smoka, Dr_wil, seb, thank you I got it :) [00:20] benste1: I still think that rfkill=1 or rfkill=0 might help (or it might be rf_kill) [00:20] Sir_Minty, and you said you installed it? did you try reinstalling? [00:21] soundray, so the /etc/modprobe.d/options.conf should be changed again? [00:21] ok it looks like the only solution is back up, delete everything, and install an older version of ubuntu [00:21] hmmmm, my ubuntu seems to be running real slow... I gave it about 20GB partition. Am I missing drivers or is it not enough space? [00:21] scorched OS policy [00:21] exit [00:21] exit [00:21] benste1: actually it's neither: check modinfo iwl3945, it's 'disable=0' [00:22] Hiro2: what size is the swap partition? [00:22] _econn: http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/universe/p/partimage/ and select the .deb appropriate to your architecture [00:22] ah ok [00:22] my apologise [00:22] benste1: yes, that's where you feed options to the driver. [00:22] i reinstalled it this time and ccsm loaded [00:22] that was wierd [00:22] now how do i set up compiz cube? [00:22] soundray : should I first delete your previous attemp? [00:22] <_econn> genii: thanks.. [00:23] Sir_Minty, you just have to play around with the settings there, there are other cool and useful effects you might also wanna try [00:23] Yay! I can use my mic! [00:23] thankyou very much [00:23] wavecutter: Wewt. [00:23] benste1: you can do that, or try a combination of options [00:23] Sir_Minty, glad i could help [00:23] Smokalotapotamus: what is the swap partition? The size of ubuntu i allowed it to install? 20GB [00:24] soundray, I'm sorry but this is far to complex for me ;-) [00:24] Anyone know where Ubuntu stores my wireless keys and VPN setup? I want to transfer to a new computer without re-typing it all. [00:24] I cant seem to browse shared network comptuers, anyone able to help? [00:24] benste1: that's just a self-limiting belief you are holding ;) [00:24] windows uses part of the hard drive as pretend memory, ubuntu makes you specify a portion for that and it is a separate partition. I don't know that it's your problem but it might be [00:24] Does it matter if a virtual Ubuntu uses eth1 and eth2 rather than eth0 and eht1? [00:25] are you running off the CD or did you install it? [00:25] carolyn_: no [00:25] soundray: thanks [00:25] Smokalotapotamus: I first created a partition in windows for 20GB free and I installed ubuntu there from a CD. Should I erase that and create a partition using the ubuntu CD? [00:25] _econn: There seems something seriously wrong in your package backend however, if it can't find stuff in repositories which are clearly enabled. Might want to consider reinstalling the apt system with aptitude, or so. [00:26] Hiro2: I've only been using ubuntu for about a year now, I'm still relatively a novice [00:26] <_econn> genii: I cannot find the amd64 of partimage version 0.6.7 [00:26] Hiro2: but it should have asked you to specify a partition for swap, unless it did it for you automatically during installation [00:26] soundray, ok thanks for your help to this point, but it has gone late now maybe I'll come back later days to fix the issue === SauLus_ is now known as SauLus [00:27] <_econn> genii: isnt this the problem then? [00:27] _econn: Maybe thats why it doesn't find one [00:27] Hiro2: If you do guided instalation it's alot easier, does everything for you. [00:27] _econn: Yes, exactly [00:27] Hiro2: Just Don't make a partition, keep 'your new' partition as free space... then use Guided install usinging the largest continuous free space. [00:27] <_econn> genii: why does this happen? I mean .. there will be never a partimage for amd64 then? [00:27] I never use guided installation [00:27] I'm hardcore [00:27] benste1: okay, good luck [00:28] thanks [00:28] Does anyone here know Visual Basic (Yes, I know this is a linux room) [00:28] ? [00:28] _econn: I'd say to report it as a bug on LaunchPad [00:28] anyone here have any experience with webcam studio? [00:28] _econn: Most likely it has just not been packaged yet is all [00:29] coleys: that's what I did [00:29] oh wait [00:29] Hiro2: And what is your problem? [00:29] nvm [00:29] Hiro2: Do it that way this time. [00:29] coleys: I shrank the vista partition to give 20GB of freespace, then I installed ubuntu there [00:30] 20gb only ? [00:30] you're saying to erase that, extend the windows partition all the way and let ubuntu create a new partition? [00:30] hi [00:30] I thought that'll be all I need for ubuntu [00:30] Hiro2: No, keep the free space as free space [00:30] OK, winehq is dead so Iḿ going to ask a wine question here if no one objects. [00:30] I have a specific problem....I have a HP server where ILO service is running on a known port 2301/tcp. The problem is that I don't know the IP address which is set on that interface. I can plug in UTP cable to that server on one side and directly to my laptop/pc on anothe side...how can I dteremine/find the unknown IP address of that server's interface? [00:31] coleys: what for? I got 100GB free space, can't I add the new created free space partition of 20GB in there and create another partition using ubuntu CD from 120GB of free space? [00:31] Hiro2: Then install ubuntu using LiveCD ... Install it with the third option. 'Guided install using largest continuous free space' which is just above manually partition === JayFo is now known as FoH [00:31] im just curious here. im not a noob, so you dont have to speak nicely. === FoH is now known as JayFoH [00:31] why would you need to recompile a kernel? i read a thing that said you would need to do it if you need a module that isnt part of the distro CD. [00:31] Has anyone gotten BF2 to run under wine with the 1.4x patch? [00:31] though, that is a nooby question [00:31] <_econn> genii: thanks a lot.. I really appreciated your help] === JayFoH is now known as JayFo [00:32] <_econn> genii: where should I report a bug, on partimage project? or at ubuntu project? [00:32] Yeah do that Hiro2 [00:32] couldnt you just recompile the module in question, if it didnt fit the kernel [00:32] ? [00:32] why recompile the whole kernel? [00:32] Hi guys, im having a problem with a jaunty app, GgzBoard, mainly that I cannot get any of the sdl games to work. I tried to get the source, just python-pygame, but when i try to run the config or setup scripts i get a good two pages of errors [00:32] how do i load the vloopback module on ubuntu? [00:32] coleys: I will, thanks :) [00:33] How can I enable computer restarts in a XDMCP session? [00:33] I believe that i have sdl installed fully, but im thinking that may be the problem, i can run the rest of the games just fine, but the sdl ones wont even start, when i try to start them up in command line, it tells me the games dont exist, even though the import function is working [00:33] leeguy92: you're right. In most instances, you can compile a module individually/ [00:33] Im not sure what to do next, i think that i have exhausted every alternate process that i am aware of [00:33] Is there a way, using /etc/network/interfaces, that my eth0 adapter get more than one ip-addresses from dhcp? [00:34] soundray: but why couldnt you? in what situation couldnt you? [00:34] ive even tried to get rid of all of the packages and install again, and everrything just happens the same way again [00:34] if the module needed newer functionality than the current kernel? [00:34] _econn: The general category first, then someone there will classify it appropriately [00:35] leeguy92: yes. Or if the module collides with something that is statically compiled into the kernel. [00:35] hello [00:35] argh this is going to drive me up a wall! [00:35] soundray: ah, i sees [00:35] it doesnt even list the games in the -l, even though i have taken every step i can to get them imported [00:35] ty [00:35] If anyone has any experience with ggzboard [00:36] Ive tried google as well, and it doesnt seem that anyone has had a problem like this, not even in the bug tracker for ggz [00:36] personne? [00:37] im wondering if maybe my distro upgrade didnt go how it should have, but as far as i can tell everything was just fine [00:37] ive tried running the windows version in wine as well, with almost the exact same result [00:37] bon bin tand pis [00:37] !fr | calista [00:37] calista: Ce canal est en anglais uniquement.

I can only browse my linux machines, none of my windows machines, and cant view the 9.04 machine filesystem from other computers. [00:38] how do i un-instlal ubuntu so I can install it again? [00:38] I removed it from windows but it still shows up on boot [00:39] Hiro2: Use LiveCD and delete it using Partition Editor [00:39] actually, might not be able to view my 9.04 cuz its an ext4 ';\ thst probably it. [00:39] mattgyver: well the easy thing to check is whether or not they carried over in fstab, which is your automatically mounted file systems [00:39] Hiro2: Then Just install. [00:39] got it, thanks again [00:39] do you have any problems with mounting them? [00:39] Can anyone verify that 8.10 cannot view an ext4 filesystem?

GRUB will fail with an error 22 when the system is booted normally, however when the system is booted from the CD and then I instruct it to boot from the first disk, the system can boot normally.

[02:40] Guest42273: why do you want to do that? there may be better ways then that insecure method.

[02:40] i'm only getting 1.1m transfer rate to my external hd [02:40] Guest42273: I highly doubt that you want that. And you actually can't for a good reason: Anyone could see your password by listing the current processes. You don't want to expose your password. [02:40] Guest42273, or you can write an expect script, see man expect [02:40] PerryArmstrong, well since a fresh install is probematic at best, let's work on this resolution prob, if your upgrade was complete [02:40] Mmm. I just can't exaclty tell who is helping me. [02:41] But anyways I'll continue. [02:41] muelli: I'm thinking that the problem is actually something to do with how fast the SSD comes online as opposed to GRUB itself, since it works when either the CD makes the system wait a few seconds or there's no other driver on the SATA bus [02:41] durt; here it is http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1115684 [02:41] Guest42273: Consider setting up a Nopasswd line in your sudoers file? [02:41] So when I use the command sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart, I get this: [02:41] i call a script from a c++ program by using system(), so i want to use sudo with the password [02:42] durt; but i suppose we can do the resolution after the install....i am also doing this to learn installing from different ways [02:42] PerryArmstrong, yes I viewed, resolutions probs are easier to solve than new installs from iso partions [02:42] but i think i can use a script [02:42] Guest42273, why not run the c++ program with sudo instead? [02:42] is there a public log of this channel somewhere? [02:42] iso partitions, even [02:42] It says: Failed to bring up eth0 [02:42] Hmm... [02:42] because i have to call a script by sudo [02:42] Guest42273, no you dont [02:42] Who here has a Ubuntu Server? [02:42] can anybody help me with this fsck error code? Error reading block 8847497 (attempt to read block from filesystem resulted in short read) while getting next inode from scane. Ignore error? [02:43] Guest42273, permissions are inherited, if your c++ program has sudo anything it calls will have sudo [02:43] Guest42273: If you have enough privilegdes, you can edit /etc/sudoers and allow your user to call that program without any password. [02:43] mib_aj5xh1km: i [02:43] hmm.... [02:43] Anyone?? [02:43] oh ok [02:43] thanks :) [02:43] mib, i've had some [02:43] why [02:43] looking for gui for openvpn-client on xubuntu. Any suggestions? [02:44] lelik67, network-manager-openvpn [02:44] Guest42273: you might be able to send the password to sudos stdin anyway. I dunno if sudo likes it or not. You also might want to use SSH with pubkey authentification. It's a bit bloated but works fine. [02:44] With the default guest account with samba, can you tack on a password to that guest account? [02:44] hello, I have a Dell 1420n and after upgrading to 9.04 I don't have any audio, tryed different forum suggestions bot none worked, some suggestion? [02:44] muelli, sudo reads password from tty, just like ssh, you cant send it to stdin. [02:44] muelli: i think it's a good idea, thanks very much [02:44] durt; ?? [02:45] k usser. I expected smth like that. [02:45] looking for gui for openvpn-client on xubuntu. Any suggestions?

[02:46] as did i. he's not listening [02:46] Oh My bad. [02:46] Okay, here is the problem. [02:46] sigh [02:46] !help | mib_aj5xh1km [02:46] PerryArmstrong, do you understand that you will need something, whether cd or usb or hd partition, you need something that is bootable with the ubuntu image. do you understand this? [02:46] mib_aj5xh1km: Hi! I'm #ubuntu's favorite infobot, you can search my brain yourself at http://ubottu.com/factoids.cgi - Usage info: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuBots [02:46] !ask | mib_aj5xh1km [02:46] mib_aj5xh1km: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line, so others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) [02:46] durt; so what do you think [02:46] Who can tell me how to get all the wallpapers from ubuntu 5.04 to the 9.04? [02:46] thanks, will it require gnome libraries? [02:46] no ubottu? [02:46] durt; ohh yes i do [02:47] With the default guest account with samba, can you tack on a password to that guest account? [02:47] lelik67, you're running xfce, it uses gtk as far as i know, so most libraries are already there [02:47] My server will not connect to the internet through my network. [02:47] ubuntu 9.04 + ati express 200m not compatible? [02:47] durt; all my disk space is being occupied by partitions...dont have space to create a new partition... [02:47] mib_aj5xh1km: but it sees the network? [02:47] And I need to know how I can fix my etc/network/interfaces file [02:47] Um... [02:47] oh wtf. [02:47] PerryArmstrong: where are the wallpapers now? === root is now known as courpse|dead [02:47] No, I doesn't see anything. [02:47] Roasted: you could make a guest user with a guest password perhaps. :) check out the book in th repos called 'using samba' - itsin the samba-doc package i think [02:47] !info samba-doc [02:47] samba-doc (source: samba): Samba documentation. In component main, is optional. Version 2:3.3.2-1ubuntu3 (jaunty), package size 7806 kB, installed size 16060 kB [02:47] *it doesn't see anything. [02:47] dayo; in the sense?? [02:48] what does your ifconfig output? [02:48] use pastebin or somin [02:48] mib_aj5xh1km: can u paste it? [02:48] Evn'n all. Got a question about KVM on Jaunty. Should I go to the server channel? [02:48] PerryArmstrong,do you have a pxe bootable card? [02:48] PerryArmstrong: where are the wallpapers stored at this point? [02:48] durt; no idea abput that?? [02:48] i cant boot up any GUI atm, only way i can use my ubuntu is if its in terminal, i do aticonfig and it says that i dont have a supported device, i have a radeon 9700 pro, and it worked fine before i upgraded my ubuntu, any suggestions? [02:48] dr_willis - I have done that. But when looking over the smb.conf I saw the "guest account" section. I just wasn't sure if the default guest account tagged with samba that I could add a password to. It's just a generic password, but I wanted to have SOMETHING on it. I just wasn't sure if I could tag the default guest acct with a PW or not. [02:48] dayo; no idea [02:48] usser, i will try that. Should I try gopenvpn as well? [02:49] Ubuntu working great here 64 bit [02:49] PerryArmstrong: do u know the filename of any of the wallpapers? [02:49] courpse|dead, take it to ati, they deprecate their cards way to quicky, support for 9700 has been dropped a long time ago [02:49] No, I cant' paste the ifconfig output, as I am on a different machine, and I don't have GNOME installed yet because I cant connect to the internet. [02:49] 0.o [02:49] PerryArmstrong, then you are sol, find space on your HD and create a bootable partition. [02:49] Roasted: i hink for guest theres no password. because its 'guest' :) you could have guest map to some other default user i belive. [02:49] And I can't use Putty to connect to it yet. [02:49] courpse|dead: you probably can use the free "radoen" driver. You have to edit your Xserver config for that. [02:49] it ran find in 8.10, should i just go back to interpid [02:49] ? [02:49] lel1nho, i'd suggest going with network manager as it integrates nicely into ubuntu environment [02:49] Hmmm.. What's the command to copy in terminal? Like... sudo cp /usr/share/* ~/dada/ [02:49] courpse|dead; goto the terminal that you mention and type sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop [02:49] Roasted: but that 'using samba book' proberly has a chapter or 2 on guest and what to watch out for. [02:49] But there is some output to ifconfig. [02:49] dayo; nope [02:50] okies, thanks. [02:50] usser, thanks [02:50] oh ya ;p [02:50] mib_aj5xh1km: are you wired or on Wifi? [02:50] Hello [02:50] Guys I need help!! [02:50] dr_willis - I added a "guest" account with a completely separate share on my samba rig. Mostly so if friends come over and want to push a music video to me or something they can use guest - password and not know my credentials to MMMMYYYY samba account where the good stuff is. :P [02:50] hunter: With?

[02:53] mib_aj5xh1km: you might want to use "dhclient" on your interface. [02:53] Does anyone know how to use like a windows deskotp on ubuntu? [02:53] I have a question about running a command at startup. I want to have synergy run before I reach the kernel/boot selection screen. Should I add the command to the sessions option, or should I place the command in some other place? [02:53] nixfreak: Add/Remove is a list. [02:53] courpse|dead, jaunty uses a more recent ati driver, which doesnt include support for your card, unfortunately you cant revert to older driver since it doesnt support jaunty so i guess you're stuck [02:53] Lmapo; try VM [02:53] ahhh crap. [02:53] courpse|dead, stuck with opensource ati driver, complain to ati, they suck [02:53] whats that? [02:53] it said the package is installed but I can't access. [02:53] lelik67: XFCE uses GNOME libraries. As many programs actually do. So you can't fully avoid GNOME stuff. [02:54] lelik67, what muelli said [02:54] Lmapo; you get to work windows in ubuntu [02:54] :) [02:54] I don't know where is it in my computer.

[02:54] nixfreak: Why do you need a list? If you know what you want, install it. =o [02:54] does anybody know with "remote desktop viewer" is theres a way to connect to XP machines on a LAN by hostname? I can connect by IP but I was curious about hostname. [02:54] muelli/usser thanks [02:54] exit [02:54] thanks :) [02:54] . [02:54] like I said i don't have ubuntu right now [02:54] nixfreak: (There's also synaptic btw) [02:54] i think i lost my connection for a bit [02:55] Linuz2009: you can list the contents of the "clamav" package if you do a "dpkg --listfiles clamav", IIRC. If it doesn't work, check the manpage for dpkg. [02:55] courpse|dead, sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf in the section device add, Driver "ati" or replace fglrx with ati if such a line already exist [02:55] nixfreak: System > Synaptic Package Manager [02:55] coleys I am not using ubuntu right now [02:55] okies, cool, thanks.

[02:57] PerryArmstrong, actually, I'm confused, you said you don't have the drive space for a new partition, yet your setting one up for the install iso. what gives? [02:58] Linuz2009: Type: alt + f2 --> clamav [02:58] Linuz2009: Well. You know what files the package installed, right? Files installed under /bin/ or /usr/bin/ are executables you might want to run. Most likely /usr/bin/clamav. You probably just have to call it,.

[03:00] Lmapo: virtualbox or dualboot [03:00] Okay [03:01] PerryArmstrong, as I said before, you need a bootable device to install Ubuntu, either cd/dvd or usb OR A BOOTABLE PARTITION with the iso written to it with dd. [03:01] trying to go to any tty* while in this state doesnt do anything, But if i press esc while grub is running, and boot in recovery mode, i can use the tty.

[03:04] Lego6245, thats not possible [03:04] my ups quit being detected in 9.04, what is the package that the bug would be in? It connects to the computer via USB. [03:04] abama: what? I didn't understand what you were trying to tell me. [03:04] Lego6245: Okay, sec [03:04] * sebsebseb thinks Lmapo is maybe here to troll, but not sure [03:04] Lmapo; what didn you get after running the apt-getcmd [03:04] Please I dont understandlol [03:04] Lmapo; what didn you get after running the apt-get cmd [03:04] Linuz2009: what? [03:04] I am not trolling [03:05] Can I do whole disk encryption with the standard Install CD? [03:05] usser, http://pastebin.com/m14dfe740 [03:05] Im downloading it form a terminal right now [03:05] okay [03:05] its done [03:05] muelli: a update manager popped up when I enter clamav in the terminal. [03:05] usser: then how am I supposed to be able to chose between win/ubuntu? [03:05] Lmapo: the vbox from the repo doesn't have usb support. so get the one from the site [03:05] what os you distribution you used? [03:05] Lmapo: Alt + F2 --> virtualbox-ose [03:05] I'm using VNC from Ubuntu to Ubuntu. I'm having a brain fart. On the Ubuntu machine I want to remote in ON... what package should I install? I've been using remote desktop viewer with TightVNC from Ubuntu to XP, but I want to go Ubuntu to Ubuntu... what's the suggestion? [03:05] Lmapo: there are install instructions on the site, follow them [03:05] Houba1986, cool try xrandr --output LVDS --mode 1280x800 [03:05] Linuz2009: I have no idea. I don't know clamav. But I highly suspect that it's fires up a GUI. [03:05] s/suspect/doubt/ [03:06] Lego6245, ehm, keyboard connected to the computer [03:06] Lmapo: you can also run a lot of Windows programs with Wine [03:06] Roasted: what's "ON"? [03:06] Lego6245: Im not to sure about before the kernal, sorry man =/ [03:06] I know [03:06] I have wine [03:06] some of windows program can't support by wine [03:06] muelli: thanks by the way. [03:06] muelli - I'm using the ubuntu machine I'm on to remote to the other ubuntu machine. The other ubuntu machine, we'll call it the spare rig... what do I install there? [03:06] ubuntu616: yep [03:06] durt; any idea?? [03:06] usser: it says, xrandr: screen cannot be larger than 2048x768 (desired size 1280x800) [03:07] PerryArmstrong, you might have gparted already available to you, I understand that it can create/move partitions around without destroying data but I've never used it myself. The only way you are getting out of this is to create a new partition and use that as the bootable device for the Ubuntu iso. [03:07] Brb [03:07] Houba1986: Make your resolution 1280 x800 [03:07] coleys: let me try to rephrase this. GNUBoot is able to run, allowing me to select which kernal I wish to use. How can I have the synergy command run at the same time? [03:07] wine is limited to access in order to run windows under linux operating system [03:07] especiall in ubuntu [03:07] ubuntu616: I have a link for you, if you want to learn about Wine [03:07] ubuntu616: a good link :) [03:07] Roasted: i think maybe vnc4server [03:07] Roasted: are you looking for a VNC client or a server? You can use "vino" as a server and "vinagre" as a client. At least Vino should be isntalled with a GNOME desktop and can be activated through gconf [03:07] Roasted: i haven't used it myself though i always just remote in via command line [03:07] usser, i'll brb, it's saying i must log out and log in again [03:08] Roasted: ah just do what muelli told you :) [03:08] Roasted: or through a clickable settings widget of course. [03:08] hello [03:08] how do i get sound working [03:08] ubuntu616: Wine dosan't do this, Wine dosan't do that, yeah yeah, but do you know why? I do :) [03:08] How do i select a hard disk? [03:08] muelli - I always got confused by this... but the "server" with VNC is essentially the computer that's being remoted in on... right? [03:08] Lego6245: rc.local should do it I think,. [03:08] for the boot screen on VIrtual Box? [03:08] Also I want to uninstall wine. What can I type in the terminal to initialize this command? [03:08] [03:08] Lmapo: have u installed it, yet? [03:08] durt; i tried..but the resize option does not work with my root partition [03:08] What replaces xchat in Juanty? [03:08] Yes I hae [03:08] [sound work] [03:08] Have [03:09] Roasted: the server is the program you connect to. USually on the remote machine. [03:09] who use vhcs ? [03:09] do I type in sudo apt-get auto remove wine? [03:09] Linuz2009: sudo apt-get purge wine, but shotcuts will probalby be left in the menu, and the hidden .wine folder might be left in home [03:09] cdavis: Whatever you prefer, xchat, irssi [03:09] Linuz2009: apt-get remove. [03:09] I have made the name but I need to find a boot hard disk [03:09] muelli - I have vino installed on the remote machine. But when I remote in via IP from my main rig I'm on now I get conn not found. [03:09] how do i get it? [03:09] Lmapo: ok, this is the guide i use to install XP on vbox: http://apcmag.com/how_to_virtualize_xp_on_ubuntu.htm [03:09] Linuz2009: purge is good since it also removes config files [03:09] PerryArmstrong, get your optical drive fixed! [03:09] Linuz2009: so it's best really to use purge all the time when your going to remove an app [03:09] muelli, like these, echo abc > /dev/ttyS0, read from /dev/ttyS0 and check the return result, then echo defgh > /dev/ttyS0, repeat these action [03:09] i am trying to diff two files, but when i run diff -b -w file1.txt file2.txt .... it shows a bunch of differences due to white space (specifically line breaks and spacing), ... there any other solution ? can i fix? [03:09] Roasted: I'm sorry. I didn't get you :-/ [03:09] Lmapo: after u're done with that, enable USB support: http://stikiflem.wordpress.com/2008/08/30/enable-usb-support-in-virtualbox/ [03:10] muelli - I'm sorry? [03:10] durt; thanks [03:10] abama: I'd write a small python script. [03:10] I want to delete wine entirely [03:10] Linuz2009: purge it first [03:10] PerryArmstrong, sorry I could not help :( [03:10] Linuz2009: then view your hidden folders in home. find the shortcuts one and remove that [03:10] durt; np [03:10] Roasted: I didn't understand you. You might want to rephrase your sentences. [03:10] Linuz2009: sudo aptitude purge wine [03:10] Linuz2009: well I could probably give you an idea where those are [03:11] Linuz2009: and .home might be left behind, but first you need to purge wine [03:11] durt; can i unmount root and resize my partition? [03:11] does anybody know if it is possible to use grep to filter two different arguments at once? [03:11] Linuz2009: and you can use apt-get or aptitude when installing and removing programs [03:11] hello hello hello [03:11] kdjtar: For lspci? [03:11] cant you just pipe it again with another grep? [03:11] muelli - Okay. I have computer A (this one) and computer B (spare computer. From A, I want to view the remote desktop of B. But what do I need to install on B to make that happen? [03:11] err filter [03:11] kdjtar: proberly is.. ive seen some nifty tricks done with a combo of grep/awk [03:11] PerryArmstrong: in theory yes. But if you have a filesystem on the partition you might want to check if it supports resizing first. [03:11] muelli, you can get those through python script? [03:11] Does anyone here have a Broadcom BCM4312 wireless card, PCI ID 14e4:4315? I can't get it working with the drivers from Broadcom and the restricted manager shows nothing for it [03:11] Linuz2009: ,but aptitude is better for big stuff, since it deals better with dependancies [03:11] coleys: how would I append the command to rc.local? [03:11] kdjtar: regular expressions have an 'OR' type feature [03:12] Roasted: probably nothing as everything you need is installed with a GNOME desktop :) [03:12] muelli;so what do i need to do?? [03:12] Lego6245: sudo gedit /etc/init.d/rc.local [03:12] Yanick: if it's just the applet that went away, type alt-f2 and re-run "nm-applet" === mpontillo1 is now known as mpontillo [03:12] muelli - Well, I cant view the desktop of B... so clearly I need to install SOMETHING... [03:12] Roasted: you probably need to activate Vino though [03:12] hello hello hello hello hello hello [03:12] muelli - how do I activate it? [03:12] loud and clear, montana [03:13] Roasted: try to find it in Settings somewhere. Or browse your settings with the gonf-editor. [03:13] hi ... i have a problem with xubuntu 9.04 and linux-rt using a nvidia graphics card [03:13] coleys: nop [03:13] how every body [03:13] so just copy the terminal command in? [03:13] is there an easier way besides vino? I've done this before with these same 2 computers, but I reinstall both to 9.04 and forgot what I did in 8.10 [03:13] Dr_Willis: hmm, I never used awk. I'm gonna check it [03:13] Lego6245: Yeah. [03:13] ok, thanks [03:13] well abama. You can read from and write to files with Python. So I guess it does the job :) [03:13] Dr_Willis, or does not work [03:13] the login window works, but when i log in, i can just move the cursor (no menus, no nothing) === ScottG_ is now known as ScottG489 === ScottG489 is now known as ScottG [03:14] i'm using ircii on a terminal... please help, it's really hard to do things this way [03:14] Roasted: I guess Vino is the most simple solution you can have! And I don't consider it a tough job to enable it ;-) [03:14] No one with a BRoadcom BCM4312? [03:14] trece8: go on their website it will tell you how to set it up good [03:14] muelli; ?? [03:14] Hazuki: One sec [03:14] muelli - Well, considering I don't know how to enable it, nor am I finding any documentation on it... suddenly vino doesn't seem plausible. [03:14] trece8, nvidia doesnt work on rt kernel as far as i know [03:14] sebsebseb... you know, browsing websites in text mode is a pain!! [03:14] okay, I've already purged wine [03:14] coleys, thank you :) [03:14] usser, it did on 8.04 [03:14] is CLI faster than efce? [03:15] but I still see the folder in my panel [03:15] trece8: IRSSI is not Lynx or Links, and those are fun [03:15] kdjtar: theres whole books written on/about awk and sed. :) if theres somthing ya want done.. it can proberly do it. heh [03:15] how do i get CLI [03:15] how can I remove that? [03:15] trece8, ok [03:15] Hazuki: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=405990 [03:15] Roasted: well. You have to look through your preferences. I dunno where excatly it is. But in case you don't find it, you might want to check the documentatino. [03:15] Linuz2009: yes as I said [03:15] CLI? Is the Command Line Interface [03:15] PerryArmstrong: what? [03:15] Linuz2009: it's in one of the hidden .folders in home [03:15] I'd love to check the documentation. If I could find it. [03:15] Linuz2009: the shortcuts [03:15] there's no hidden shortcuts in my home folder. [03:16] Roasted: have you tried to google it? [03:16] muelli, there is other way to do that, not familiar with python [03:16] a clue? Somebody? please... i'm begging in black and white and terminal font [03:16] i burned an ubuntu CD. how do i get my computer to boot / install from it ? It has ubuntu already installed on it, but i can't login. [03:16] Linuz2009: yes there are .folders you need to view them first [03:16] kansan: you need a script to remove the white space first then diff the file [03:16] all of them? [03:16] how do i use network time in ubuntu 9.04? [03:16] muelli - uh, yeah [03:16] quizme: why not? and you can re set the user account password [03:16] muelli; what am i supposed to do now?? [03:16] quizme: in fact you don't even need a live cd for that since recovery mode [03:16] well abama. I guess you can use "dd" to fetch bytes but I think it's rather unconvenient :) [03:16] Lmapo; what didn you get after running the apt-get cmd [03:17] Hazuki: Tell me how that works. [03:17] Lmapo; http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=770745 [03:17] sebsebseb: it's a new computer. the guys who assembled my computer didn't give me the password. [03:17] i have irual running [03:17] but [03:17] i need to get a boot screen [03:17] muelli - got it. [03:17] PerryArmstrong: in order to do what?! Dude, I have no clue what your status is or what you're up to. [03:17] quizme: ok you got the bootloader and recovery mode though I assume? [03:17] I still can't find the shortcut. [03:17] Roasted: so, where is it? :) Just to share the love... [03:17] its a bit slower than ubuntu-to-xp [03:17] muelli - "vino" is actually the remote desktop client built into ubuntu... [03:17] muelli - system - preferences - remote desktop viewer. Then just check the box to allow users to connect. [03:17] quizme: before Ubuntu loads there should be a loader [03:17] sebsebseb: what's a bootloader and recovery mode? i burned the latest version of Ubuntu 9.04 to a CD. that's all i have [03:17] coleys, thank you :) trying it now [03:18] muelli - I had no idea that "vino" was that... [03:18] Roasted: nope. Vino is the VNC server built into the GNOME desktop... [03:18] muelli; idont have space to create new partition...i want to create a new partition by resizing the root...what do i need to do now?? [03:18] quizme: I thought you said there was an install already on there? [03:18] can someone tell me how to get and CLI as an xfce replacement i need better performance.. [03:18] PerryArmstrong: I'd boot a live cd and use "gparted" to edit the partition table. [03:18] Is there a way to keep emblems from disappearing after you reboot? [03:18] sebsebseb: ya there is. rebooting now...... [03:18] emblem? [03:18] Hazuki: You will most likely have to reinstall. [03:18] muelli; I am on 9.04 and i dont have the cd [03:18] Dr_Willis, in nautlius, like the share icons [03:18] the folder listed are desktop, documents, example, music, pictures, public, pulse-backup, videos, mixerlog,txt, templates [03:18] They go away after a reboot for some reason [03:18] PerryArmstrong: then I'd download it. [03:19] mattgyver: they stay here after i reboot... [03:19] coleys, it's giving a lot of errors...it didn't find ndiswrapper for example [03:19] is that normal? [03:19] mattgyver: or are you on a live cd or somthing? [03:19] these are the folder that are listed in my home folder [03:19] sebsebseb: yeah i pressed escape, now i can get to recovery mode.... should i do that ? [03:19] psychic: Please rephrase your question to make it clearer what you are asking [03:19] thank you guys, I got it. I should use either grep -e PATTERN -e PATTERN or grep -Ee 'PATTERN|PATTERN' [03:19] Hazuki: Lets try another way, go .. System > Administration > hardware drivers [03:19] quizme: yes [03:19] nope [03:19] is there anyway I can open a *db3 file in ubuntu? I need to edit some tables. [03:19] quizme: and get a root prompt [03:19] mine just seem to go away after i restart... dont know why [03:19] sebsebseb: ok [03:19] muelli; i downloaded the ISO...my drive isn't working..since its spoiled and i dont have an usb..so i am doing this partition menthod [03:19] coleys: was my first attempt; it showed nothing for me [03:19] sebsebseb: netroot ? [03:19] genil i was reading a forum mentioning xfce fluxbox CLI and some other ones does that help [03:19] Linuz2009: view > show hidden files and folders [03:20] Hazuki: Have you done... sudo apt-get update [03:20] quizme: netroot what? [03:20] Hazuki: In terminal. [03:20] thanks Dr_Willis, I'm gonna look for something aobut awk and sed for sure [03:20] genil how can i change into a CLI session [03:20] coleys: this is BCM4312 "low power," PCI ID 14e4:4315...will try that first and then try again [03:20] Are there any known issues with USB microphones? I remember reading about problems with USB audio devices, but that might have been in an old version. [03:20] sebsebseb: it's one of the options on the REcovery Menu, grub, netroot, root, xfix [03:20] Linuz2009: then view > list and then press type and it's alpaheetical order by type [03:20] muelli, it needs to ctrl+C to terminate the read from /dev/ttyS0? [03:20] quizme: ok I guess it's just root [03:20] sebsebseb: okay I've deleted the file .wine [03:20] hm PerryArmstrong. well, you need to boot an external system unless you have a filesystem which supports online resizing. What filesystem do you have on your root partition? You can check with "mount?". [03:20] anyone have a Radeon 4670 working without video issues? [03:20] psychic: CLi is a text-only interface.. eg: CommandLIne xfce and fluxbox are two lightweight desktop environments. Of the two, fluxbox is lightest [03:21] sebsebseb: okay, i'm there. now what ? [03:21] Linuz2009: yes, but the shorcuts are in another folder [03:21] xfce <3 :) [03:21] sebsebseb: where might that be? [03:21] quizme: passwd username [03:21] abama: cat does. dd does unless you specify how many bytes it should read. [03:21] quizme: and you should be able to enter in a new password [03:21] muelli; ext3 [03:21] Hi! how can I see my current bandwidth usage from a shell? [03:21] psychic: Are you sure you understand what command-line interface only is? [03:21] sebsebseb: sweetness thanks [03:22] PerryArmstrong: I don't think it supports online resizing. In fact, I don't know if it supports resizing at all. You might want to check for it first. Like wikipedia, google or a manpage.

See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Printers - https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsPrinters - http://linuxprinting.org - Printer sharing: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/NetworkPrintingFromWindows [03:28] reinstalling the printer works [03:28] abama: in fact, you can use somethg like "python -c 'file("/dev/ttyS0").readline()' in order to read a line. or file().read(10) to read 10 bytes [03:28] Just 'upgraded' from 8.10 to 9.04 (actually, a start-from-scratch) and having a hard getting the system to boot headless. I didn't have to do anything on 8.10, but 9.04 is haning-up on the fact that there's no Screen (xorg getting upset). Forums have the same question, but no answer. Any ideas? [03:28] any ideas on when flash will be fixed on Ubuntu 9.04? i found a get around that seems to work- open Mozilla via Wine.. [03:28] muelli; how do i unmount root partition?? is it safe to do it?? [03:28] sebsebseb: thanks now the shortcut is gone. [03:28] Linuz2009: ok no problem [03:29] Can anybody help? [03:29] davidvpn: you got a Intel graphics card? [03:29] sebsebseb, you jumped the gun there a bit ... I was going to say a reinstall works fine, this is some sort of upgrade bug [03:29] worth reporting? [03:29] !ask | ankuerwidguitar [03:29] ankuerwidguitar: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line, so others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) [03:29] !helpme [03:29] 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 [03:29] PerryArmstrong: you unmount it with "umount". Of course, unmouting a running system isn't a good idea because you can't start any application because linux can't find the files anymore. [03:29] sebsebseb: also can you help me on how to run clamav [03:29] sebsebseb - I think so (integrated Intel). How is that relevant (i.e. I don't know)? [03:29] !virus | Linuz2009 [03:29] Linuz2009: A/V software is available, however read this to understand why Linux does not have a virus problem: http://librenix.com/?inode=21 [03:30] muelli; i can resize root by only unmounting it... [03:30] I haven't got a fast internet connection and I would prefer to upgrade my distro via offline methods. What is 'alternate installation CD'? [03:30] How do I get a list of things available to "modprobe"? [03:30] davidvpn: it's very relivant [03:30] davidvpn: there are issues it's even mentioned in the release notes [03:30] davidvpn: no fix yet [03:30] CradLeRcker: np [03:30] sebsebseb: I know that Linux is very secure but there's still few virus that might affect it. [03:30] ankurwidguitar: you can download the alternate cd. Just have a look at the ubuntu mirrors. [03:30] Linuz2009: viruses no, rootkits maybe, but only if you install yourself or get cracked [03:30] sebsebseb - guess I should RTFM more. Thank you. [03:31] muelli; i can resize root by only unmounting it...any idea [03:31] users [03:31] Linuz2009: maybe a virus of some kind that deletes stuff from home, but otherwise probably not [03:31] whoops. sorry [03:31] What? You mean I shouldn't be running IRC while root? [03:31] :O [03:31] PerryArmstrong: boot another system. [03:31] muelli: is that all I have to do? [03:31] coleys, this isn't working... [03:31] errors all over the place [03:31] saki: yeah you can get cracked when your on IRC and running as root [03:31] saki: you shoudn't be using a root account at all on Ubuntu really [03:31] !noroot [03:31] We don't support a root password so don't suggest one unless you are going to be here 24/7 to help someone who has problems as a result of having one, many thanks ;-) [03:31] !sudo [03:31] sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more information. For graphical applications see !gksu (Gnome, XFCE), or !kdesudo (KDE) [03:31] sebsebseb: so you're saying that anti-virus are not necessary. [03:31] I was being facetious. [03:31] ankurwidguitar: of course your system won't upgrade if you only download the cd. I don't know what you have to do in order to have your system upgraded. But the docs shuold know. [03:32] Linuz2009: exactly at this time, only nessarey if say your running a email server and so scanning for Windows viruses [03:32] muelli: Thank you! But I am very much confused about 'alternate CD' and the .iso file hosted on ubuntu site [03:32] Linuz2009: Windows viruses won't even run on other OS's, you may be able to get some to partily run in Wine, but other then that nope [03:32] omg [03:32] omg [03:32] omg [03:33] Lmapo: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. [03:33] !omg | Lmapo [03:33] Lmapo: Please don't use "LOL" and "OMG" and so forth on a regular basis. This is IRC, not IM, and using those lines on their own is not required, and it is rather annoying to the rest of the people in the channel; thanks. [03:33] sebsebseb: I only use the internet to check my mail [03:33] Hazuki: Worked?? :D [03:33] hello people [03:33] Little late there, sebsebseb. [03:33] coleys, no, it didn't [03:33] not at all [03:33] hello~~ [03:33] saki: I don't think so [03:33] Anyone know how to make a bluetooth keyboard auto-connect to Ubuntu on boot up? I have to re-connect on every boot right now. :( [03:33] Linuz2009: ok you will be fine then [03:33] Hazuki: is your ubuntu, wiredly connected to the internet? [03:33] how can u configure ur system volume level [03:33] coleys, yes [03:33] Linuz2009: well make sure you got a hardware fireweall on :) [03:33] Linuz2009: in say a router [03:33] how would I talk to you otherwise? o_O [03:34] Hazuki: And you sudo apt-get update'd [03:34] Linuz2009: and good useraccount password that isn't say abc123 [03:34] yes [03:34] and upgrade'd too [03:34] i need to pass through a proxy server using http-replicator 4 beta 2 [03:34] !proxy | bismark [03:34] bismark: Many Ubuntu IRC channels prohibit access from !proxies such as !TOR and web (Java, etc) gateways due to a high level of abuse. You can however obtain a hostmask cloak: see http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#cloaks. If you're using mibbit, please try joining #ubuntu again. Mibbit takes a long time to connect, so you may have missed a message to do this. [03:34] hop [03:34] Hazuki: Then you chcked hardware drivers? [03:34] sebsebseb: my password is pretty simple [03:34] i can't see how to set proxy server [03:34] davidvpn: if it's truly headless there's no point starting X anyway. Not sure why the forums don't talk about this... [03:34] coleys, multiple times [03:34] that was where I went first [03:34] bismark: ok no good I was just trying [03:34] Hazuki: D: [03:35] after installing eclipse 3.2 through aptitude, is there an easy way to upgrade to 3.4? [03:35] or do i have to grab the tar [03:35] Linuz2009: letters and numbers at least, and ideailly in that case also pretty long [03:35] Linuz2009: or you can do like weird characters and stuff [03:35] !password | Linuz2009 [03:35] Linuz2009: Forgot your password? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LostPassword What's the root password? See !sudo. Don't see *** in password prompts? That's normal. Sudo doesn't ask for your password? It remembers you for several minutes. Please use strong passwords, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/StrongPasswords [03:35] Bluetooth connection persistance accross reboots? Anyone know how? :) [03:35] Nullifi3d: If a newer version is packaged, you can try to install the deb file. Check packages.ubuntu.com or apt-cache policy [03:35] Linuz2009: ok bot no good for that one, but there are even sites for random password generators, but you don't really need something mega secure for your Ubuntu account either [03:36] i have a usb network adapter that in windoze appears as a SR800 i think... how will i get it to work in ubuntu? [03:36] hi.. installed ubuntu into a vm .. whatever ubuntu cant detect the monitor so there is no resolution above 800x600 possible.. is there a way to change that ? [03:36] i think http-rep doesn't have support for that : [03:36] any idea? [03:36] losher: I'm using VNC from various locations/OSs to get into the box. VNC requiring X (as far as I know) means X has to load 'smoothly.' I know there are alternatives, but to-date I have many boxes-of-access that all have VNC and would rather not alter the many boxes if I can fix 'the one'. [03:36] I am on a macbookpro 5,1 and can't get the trackpad driver to load the configuration file (the fdi file), if I explicitely specify the properties on the command line using synclient .. it works fine, what am I missing? [03:36] here's the bug for my printing issue ... https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cups/+bug/370378 [03:36] nob0dy: ask in #vbox :) [03:36] nob0dy: xrandr is able to do this. But I don't know the syntax. usser or the man page does ;-) [03:36] k.. lets give it a try;) [03:36] wonder if it's just a problem with the samsung laser driver [03:36] nob0dy: also you should only do Ubuntu in a vm for trying [03:36] nob0dy: then put on your hard disk later for real :) [03:36] racecar56: do lsusb and then google for the vendor:device codes there, or the name etc, and ubuntu [03:37] ty muelli [03:37] sebsebseb: so what if my computer get infected will the infection cause more damage or less damage compared to a Window XP OS ? [03:37] first try then "buy" ;) [03:37] uuuuugh, this isn't working...I know I'm not the only one with this, these damn Broadcom chips are everywhere [03:38] Hazuki, what's the issue, I missed it. [03:38] Linuz2009: basically you got to know what your doing to get any malicious programs instaled, or someone needs to gain access to your computer pshyically or cracking, to install malware [03:38] genii, says stuff about pl2303... is that useful? [03:38] saki: broadcom bcm4312, PCI ID 14e4:4315. Nothing works >< [03:38] !rootkit | Linux2009 [03:38] Sorry, I don't know anything about rootkit [03:38] davidvpn: nasty. There may not be a workaround. Downgrade? [03:38] racecar56: Possibly :) [03:38] saki: Restricted Driver manager has nothing for me, using the hydrib-portsrc from Broadcom's site doesn't work, that script coleys linked doesn't work... [03:38] losher: that thought just now crossed my mind! bummer. I'd rather not, but... ugh. [03:39] sebsebseb: but I'm can be easily fooled by someone. [03:39] Hazuki, is it at least seeing the device itself? [03:39] sebsebseb, what's going on with Linux2009? linux virus? O_o [03:39] racecar56: No, that is some usb-to-serial-port chipset. [03:39] Hi all, I'm having trouble getting an MP3 decoder plugin to install [03:39] racecar56: he is wondering if he can get infected on Ubuntu [03:39] genii, k... [03:39] saki, only with the wl from Broadcom installed. it sees it but the wifi light won't come on, it can't iwlist scan, and it won't connect to anything [03:39] sebsebseb, k [03:39] sebsebseb: downloading stuff that I didn't know that would contain any malicious software. [03:39] I am in a an environment that is partially gnome on ubuntu 8.10. Currently, when I login from gdm, no background is initiated. However, if I start the Appearance dialog, the background is added. How can I make it so the background is always there? [03:39] Linuz2009: on Windows it's an issue on Ubuntu nah [03:39] Linuz2009: you will only get stuff from trusted sources [03:40] Linuz2009: so the Ubuntu servers normalley :) [03:40] sebsebseb: so the internet will warn me if its a trusted source or not? [03:40] Linuz2009: and maybe when your more experiended you would get stuff from sourceforge.net mirrors [03:40] Hazuki, is it listed under interfaces in ifconfig? [03:40] Linuz2009, it would be _H_A_R_D_ to infect linux, seriously. it's not easy like micro$oft windoze [03:40] jdu: weird. the background image should be persistent. What does "partially GNOME" mean? Have you removed any package yourself? [03:40] Linuz2009: the only thing you need to worry about is people telling you to do malicious rm commands [03:40] davidvpn: there's a small chance that Xvnc will run even if regular X11 doesn't but I wouldn't count on it. I can't think of any other workaround except maybe ssh... [03:40] saki, yes, but only after I have the Broadcom thing installed [03:41] Linuz2009: don't just run any command for Linux, some are bad as well [03:41] saki: before that, there's no trace of it anywhere but lspci [03:41] Linuz2009: be very careful with rm [03:41] Linuz2009: be very careful with any rm command [03:41] genii, kk... then what do i do now? [03:41] Hazuki, alright, did you ifconfig up? [03:41] saki, yes [03:41] Linuz2009, rm and dd are dangerous [03:41] okay, so the only way to to infect a linux computer is when someone tells you to run a command. [03:41] Linuz2009: no [03:41] Linuz2009, no [03:41] Linuz2009: ,but some of those commands can delete the whole system [03:41] Linuz2009, depends on the command [03:42] Linuz2009, dd and rm can be used in very bad ways [03:42] !backup [03:42] There are many ways to back your system up. Here's a few: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BackupYourSystem , https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DuplicityBackupHowto , https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HomeUserBackup , https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MondoMindi - See also !sbackup and !cloning [03:42] muelli, partically gnome has meant different things, generally running a different window manager other than metacity or compiz. Right now, it means running a different manager and starting certain parts of gnome, such as applets etc. [03:42] what's a dd/rm? [03:42] Linuz2009, like copying /dev/null to /dev/*da [03:42] Hazuki, I'm sorry, just trying to get an ideal of where you're at. [03:42] Solutions are wonderful. [03:42] racecar56: Pastebin results of: lspci -nn ; lsusb and possibly also result of: dmesg [03:42] racecar56: he is new he won't understand that [03:42] Linuz2009: and rm is remove [03:42] saki, I know...thanks for being so thorough :) I've actually been using Linux for 5 years and started on Gentoo [03:42] you mean disks that store you information? [03:43] Hazuki, ah. Gentoo <3 [03:43] racecar56: Don't put in the channel commands which can be harmful, even in jest [03:43] jdu: which window manager do you run? Maybe it's the window managers job to care about the background? [03:43] but this is just...no amount of knowledge will save a person from lack of drivers [03:43] hey guys, Im running ubuntu 8.10 (x64) on HP dv8000 laptop, can I upgrade RAM to 4GB? [03:43] like the system files [03:43] Linuz2009: also sometimes people come in here and give out bad commands, but the ops tend to pick up on that, and kick them out [03:43] for some reason in debian they decided to add delaycompress option to squid logrotation "Postpone compression of the previous log file to the next rotation cycle. This only has effect when used in combination with compress. It can be used when some program cannot be told to close its logfile and thus might continue writing to the previous log file for some time." [03:43] Linuz2009: bann them from the channel [03:43] to my undestanding this isn't the case with squid -k rotate it dosen't continue writing to the previous logfile [03:43] :-( help, I'm trying to deploy a project to a server so we can demo it at a conference TOMORROW... and I keep getting this error: govnex.com And it runs on an identical setup on my laptop, but not on the server. [03:43] sebsebseb: bad commands deliberately? Or by mistake? [03:43] Braunne: Ubuntu has no problems with much memory. But I dunno if your laptop has [03:43] so its impossible for someone to hack into linux and run commands. [03:43] anybody know what might be missing? [03:43] dmidecode -t memory says the capacity is 4GB but HP says its 2GB!!!! [03:44] losher: on purpouse, and I wonder what happended to someone I helped before, because he got his whole system deleted, after there was someone. I haven't seen the log yet [03:44] genii, ya. [03:44] genii, http://racecar56.pastebin.com/f76714054 lspci -nn [03:44] muelli, dwm. If I use gnome to start the window manager, the gnome background is used, but that is much slower than starting the window manager and then parts of gnome. As far as I know, dwm has no way of setting the background. [03:44] sebsebseb: psychopathic... [03:45] racecar56: Reading [03:45] Hazuki, sadly I'm having issues with my system hanging on iwlist with a rtl adapter XD [03:45] wow O_O [03:45] losher: maybe with that guy though it was all a mistake, not sure, untill I seen the log if I can find it [03:45] genii, http://racecar56.pastebin.com/f3a3880c5 lsusb http://racecar56.pastebin.com/f6387a363 dmesg [03:45] sebsebseb: I think that my computer might be infected, I'm not sure so I want to ask is there any sign that dictated that my computer had been infected? [03:45] jdu: never heard of dwm. I honestly don't know whose job it is the background. But if metacity works and dwm doesn't it smells like a bug in dwm ;-) [03:45] Linuz2009, how can you tell? [03:45] Linuz2009: why would you think you were infected? [03:46] Linuz2009: there are some pretty fun interesting ways that Windows can be deleted to [03:46] sebsebseb, lol === smartasstronaut is now known as smartasstroAWAY [03:46] Linuz2009: I was doing vnc once and someone connected and deleted his virtual machine of Windows :d [03:46] hendrixski: I am lousy at servers, but stick around, I am certain it will be picked up. May I ask are you using an SSH or what? [03:46] VNC? [03:46] sebsebseb: no vnc password? [03:46] Linuz2009: remote connecting [03:47] losher: I was doing a vncviewer -listen [03:47] irc.freenode.net [03:47] losher: so anyone could connect to it [03:47] muelli, dwm is very minimal, and I have hacked on it somewhat. However, as I said, the background will set itself if I go to the Appearance dialog. [03:47] Linuz2009: vnc is a remote access protocol [03:47] vigo, yep, sshing into a box from rapidxen [03:47] racecar56: OK, I got what it is now from lsusb [03:47] losher: I will do VNC over SSH if I remote connect other people :) [03:47] that connects to a computer, like controlling it? [03:47] genii, :D what is the line [03:47] Linuz2009: yes exactly [03:47] sebsebseb: someone you knew, or random from the internet? [03:47] anyone using ubuntu netbook remix know how to configure quick launch keyboard buttons? [03:47] Linuz2009: ,but you got to install the program first [03:48] vigo, I've asked in the django chanell, but it could be a problem with my server setup and not with the code [03:48] whare can i go to talk to someone about freenet? [03:48] racecar56: "# [03:48] Bus 004 Device 006: ID 0fe6:8101 " [03:48] losher: the one that deleted Windows vm, was from net [03:48] can someone control my computer if they want to? [03:48] Bah [03:48] genii, Bus 004 Device 006: ID 0fe6:8101? [03:48] or do they need information about my computer first [03:48] Garrison: about Freenode you mean? #freenode [03:48] hendrixski: You have all the code right on your end. oh ok, That is where I was heading. [03:48] Linuz2009: you need to install vnc first [03:48] sebsebseb: thanks [03:48] Linuz2009: people can't just connect to your computer, unless it's cracking [03:49] Linuz2009: and even then they can't [03:49] Linuz2009: ,because got to know what they are doing and get past firewall and yeah [03:49] vigo, yeah, it's the exact same code that we deployed successfully on our laptop [03:49] racecar56: Yes. It's a Davicom DM9601 based USB 1.1 10/100 ethernet device [03:49] genii, aha [03:49] genii, :D [03:49] Linuz2009: with VNC it's perfectly legal, it's set up on your computer by you. or in person techi, and you accept the connection [03:49] racecar56: The linux drivername is dm9601 [03:50] is there a way to play winblows games in Ubuntu? [03:50] hendrixski: Yours is server and the other is Host? [03:50] lazerman, yeah [03:50] how [03:50] lazerman: yes Wine [03:50] sebsebseb: For safety I recommend running behind a NAT firewall, and only allowing ssh access, preferably via public key [03:50] lazerman, it dosent always work but it's called wine [03:50] muelli, thanks for your help. I am going to keep looking for ways of starting parts of gnome. [03:50] lazerman, just try [03:50] vigo, huh? [03:50] genii, ok ill be modprobin' and leaving, so brb [03:50] lazerman: wine is even capable of made windows virus work !!! [03:50] losher: yeah I am not that keen on ports being open to whole net, but I am not really sure what to do about that [03:50] seb but not all games are supported [03:50] ritew? [03:51] sebsebseb: So VNC is basically connecting to a computer and share files/folders, but how can a computer be controlled by two users? [03:51] lazerman: indeed [03:51] lazerman: ,but Wine is rather interesting software [03:51] does windows virus work and affect linux? [03:51] ) [03:51] Linuz2009: you run the vnc server, and they have a viewer [03:51] lazerman: no [03:51] lazerman no [03:51] lazerman: wine is even capable of made some windows virus work !!! [03:51] !virus | lazerman [03:51] lazerman: A/V software is available, however read this to understand why Linux does not have a virus problem: http://librenix.com/?inode=21 === les_ is now known as les [03:51] !wine [03:51] WINE is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux - More information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine - Search the !AppDB for application compatibility ratings - Join #winehq for application help - See !virtualizers for running Windows (or another OS) inside Ubuntu [03:51] sebsebseb: I only open ssh, but on a non-standard port, which cuts down on phishers. I also allow a couple of torrent ports. But nothing else. So far, so good... [03:52] hendrixski: Your box is the server? [03:52] Linuz2009, X tunneling over ssh or ssh are also options for remote controlling a computer. [03:52] jdu: i'd check if there is a freedesktop.org way of setting a background. [03:52] losher: yeah I guess not much can be done with a open ssh port [03:52] well i kind of guess why [03:52] losher: that is open to whole net [03:52] cause nothing runs itself you have to use password to run whatever [03:52] is there anybody that remotes kafeine with mce remote of microsoft [03:52] sebsebseb: if you insist on public key identification only, in theory it's bulletproof... [03:52] executables [03:52] muelli, good idea, thanks. I have used their icon tray before [03:52] no? i will read if not [03:52] sebsebseb: ... (in theory) ... [03:53] genii, D: it dosent work [03:53] vigo, no, we're renting servers from rapidxen [03:53] !vnc [03:53] VNC is a protocol for remote desktop. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VNCOverSSH describes how to use it securely. It works best over fast connections, otherwise look at !FreeNX [03:53] sebsebseb: The NAT firewall takes care of any other slips you might make... [03:53] vigo, but we did the exact same thing on our box as we did on the server [03:53] it worked on our box [03:53] but not on the server [03:53] hence this error: govnex.com [03:54] sebsebseb: okay, then I'll just uninstall the package since you said it would be a waste of space since linux is secure enough that it won't have any virus. [03:54] losher: NAT firewall hummm well my firewall is my router. IPtables isn't exactly easy to learn [03:54] Linuz2009: yeah about all it does is scans for Windows viruses [03:54] slm [03:54] sebsebseb: thanks for you assistance. [03:55] Linuz2009: you just installed? [03:55] Linuz2009: who was it that was running Ubuntu in a vm? you? [03:55] sebsebseb: yeah, I installed the packages? [03:55] hendrixski: Ok, did you have a DHCP configuration? [03:56] Linuz2009: you just insatlled Ubuntu onto your hard disk? [03:56] sebsebseb: For a firewall I use a linksys running tomato firmware. Configured entirely via the web. iptables on the Ubuntu box is kinda overkill if your NAT box is working... [03:56] sebsebseb: I installed ubuntu weeks ago. [03:56] hey is anyone running warcraft 3 with wine/crossover games on jaunty? [03:56] kaveh: nope, but something I will try eventaully [03:56] Hello... can you help me? [03:56] saki, coleys, now the driver is showing up in the restricted driver manager o_O But freezing when I tell it to activate [03:56] kaveh: I think it will work pretty well [03:56] !helpme | omicron [03:56] omicron: 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 [03:56] sebsebseb: what? is there a problem? [03:56] !ask [03:56] Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line, so others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) [03:57] Linuz2009: no, I just like recomending software to install to people :) [03:57] hey, if i do an apt-get dist-upgrade, would that upgrade me to ubuntu 9.04? [03:57] going to reboot again and see if this changes anything @_@ [03:57] vigo, don't know. I never tinkered with that [03:57] gm|lap, no [03:57] i cant seem to get virtualbox working [03:57] gm|lap: yep, but no Ext4 [03:57] TopBunny98: why not? [03:57] gm|lap, it is equivalent to going to the update manager and checking upgrade. [03:57] sebsebseb, no... dist-upgrade doesn't upgrade to the newest version [03:57] nice [03:58] hendrixski: here, this may help: http://tldp.org/HOWTO/DHCP/x369.html [03:58] i have read about viruses [03:58] jdu: the "Upgrade to 9.04" thing? [03:58] i had it running on 8.10 before, but upon reinstalling (after upgrading to 9.04 / complete format ) warcraft3 does this annoying thing - it plays the beginning cinematic but the screen goes black or flips to another workspace / its original workspace whilst playing the audio for the cinematic, no keys work and the game does not eventually load - anyone have any ideas ? [03:58] lazerman: the virus link? [03:58] gm|lap, yes [03:58] for warcraft3 taht is [03:58] cheers, i am doing that now. [03:58] sorry!, I need to configure a DNS. [03:58] (the apt-get one) [03:59] sebsebseb: I don't know my keyring? something like that, I might spelled it wrong. [03:59] Is there a netbook remix channel or should I just talk about it here? [03:59] genii, it still dosent work, networkmanager dosent see it [03:59] you need to do "sudo do-release-upgrade" to do a dist upgrade [03:59] sebsebseb: it ask me the passwork for a keyring when I boot my computer. [04:00] holasssssssssssss [04:00] I type in my admin password but it won't work. [04:00] holasssssssssss [04:00] Linuz2009: key ring??? [04:00] I click deny at the end.

[04:02] ingles love [04:02] ok === Rabbitbu1ny is now known as Rabbitbunny [04:02] genii, http://racecar56.pastebin.com/f53076d50 [04:02] bye [04:02] jdu, that's what I always used for distribution upgrades, because dist-upgrade just does a bit more than regular upgrade [04:02] lina69: Inglés solamente aquí. Español en el #ubuntu-es [04:03] linuxguymarshall: sure I guess so [04:03] racecar56: Reading [04:03] sebsebseb: I;ve found it, its Encryption and Keyrings window. [04:03] linuxguymarshall: ,but liket he desktop release got to to go through 8.10 [04:03] that reminds me [04:03] sebsebseb: there's no default key [04:03] i need to learn more spanish === Ada2358 is now known as Ada2358_ [04:03] holassssssssssss [04:03] hendrixski: and here for 8, > http://www.ubuntugeek.com/step-by-step-ubuntu-810-intrepid-ibex-lamp-server-setup.html [04:03] Linuz2009: I am not sure now [04:03] nadie habla español === Ada2358_ is now known as Ada2358 [04:03] lina69: habla ingles? [04:04] sebsebseb:Well I cant find out how to upgrade it to 8.10 [04:04] sebsebseb: what you mean? Don't know what it is or confuse of what I'm talking about? [04:04] Linuz2009: both [04:04] !upgrade | linuxguymarshall [04:04] linuxguymarshall: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes - see also http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/upgrading [04:04] racecar56: OK. Now unplug the thing from the usb port. Wait 30 seconds. Plug it back in. Wait maybe 10 seconds. Then again with the pastebin of: dmesg|tail [04:04] hendrixski, I seem to remember using dist-upgrade before and it working. Maybe I did something more. However do-release-upgrade seems more complete, even though there is no man page. In reality, I often just reinstall an / and add /home to fstab [04:05] sebsebseb: okay you can access the keyrings in system>keyrings [04:05] sebsebseb:you did that? [04:05] Linuz2009: I don't have it seems [04:05] sebsebseb: are you running ubuntu? is so, what version? [04:05] hendrixski: and here: https://help.ubuntu.com/8.10/serverguide/C/index.html [04:06] jdu, re-installing takes too long [04:06] sebsebseb:I know how to do it on the desktop, but UNR seems to be different. It does not detect a new ubuntu version [04:06] Linuz2009: 9.04 well kind of [04:06] vigo, we have the server all set up, just we can't seem to get our application to deploy [04:06] sebsebseb: mines jaunty jackalope, version 9.04 [04:06] hendrixski, really? I have always found it quicker. [04:06] genii, how is it going? [04:06] Quick question. I have OSS4 installed on Kubuntu 8.04 (appears in Adept as oss-linux with a version of 4.2-081213) and I'm upgrading to 9.04 soon. Should I leave OSS as it is and upgrade, or uninstall it before the upgrade and reinstall it later? [04:06] Linuz2009: mines 8.10 to alpha6 to beta, to rc. with some issues left from alpha6, I haven't clean installed yet [04:07] sebsebseb then you should have it, well maybe that's the reason. [04:07] jdu, do you factor backing up files, and redoing all the configs as well? [04:07] hendrixski: Are you certain that the LAMP,MySQL or whatever you are using is a 'good' package? [04:07] racecar56: It goes. Did you do the yank/wait/plug/wait/ dmesg paste thing yet? I may have missed the url [04:07] Linuz2009: I been with Ubuntu since second release and I have never seen such a thing in my menu, as far as I can remember [04:07] guess you don't want to upgrade your version or anything? [04:07] Linuz2009: who? [04:08] Linuz2009: oh well I got to fix the package manager if I was to get more updates, I can't be bothered to when I am clean installing so soon [04:08] sebsebseb: you don't want to upgrade your version? [04:08] genii, http://racecar56.pastebin.com/f53076d50 [04:08] Linuz2009: maybe this weekend and Ext4 :) [04:08] sebsebseb: your update manager is broken? [04:08] how do i start firefox (or any other linux app) with no sound? [04:08] Linuz2009: yes and I can't be bothered to fix it as I just said [04:08] hendrixski, I factor in the fact that I have enough customizations often that updating would fail/add a lot of stuff I don't need. But you're right, for that reason I sometimes skip releases. [04:08] sebsebseb: I'm not convinced ext4 is ready for prime-time... [04:09] losher: I wil find out :) the issues in the relase notes won't effect me when I clean install with final and Ext4 [04:09] jdu, hhmm. I've rarely had things fail in an upgrade [04:09] jdu, but it's not "better" or "worse" [04:09] racecar56: Thats not the dmesg paste from after doing: yanking out usb wifi/wait 30 secs/plug back in/wait ten secs paste: dmesg|tail Thats the previous paste from loading and unloading the driver only [04:09] sebsebseb: :-) [04:09] just a preference I guess [04:09] genii, k [04:10] genii, usb wifi? its wired [04:10] hendrixski, I guess I just had one major incidence a while back, but I had backups. Reinstalling is much easier as I keep /home separate. [04:10] same here [04:10] how can i downgrade the kernel in 9.04? [04:10] hendrixski: as I stated, I do not know much about the server thing, so I posted the links that I thought may help or be of relevance. [04:11] AlienX: Why would you want to do that? [04:11] vigo, thank you :-D [04:11] jdu and racecar56 seperate home partitions aren't really needed as such anymore, because there's a way to re install with data staying in tact, as long as didn't format partition. or whater popey from #ubuntu-uk told me before [04:11] sebsebseb: well anyway had you heard this program called automatix? [04:11] !info automatix [04:11] sebsebseb, k [04:11] Package automatix does not exist in jaunty [04:11] Man I hate The new menu topology in jaunty [04:11] it doesn't? [04:12] really? [04:12] genii, http://racecar56.pastebin.com/f2dfb8940 [04:12] racecar56 jdu ,but I will still do one I think when I clean install. the swap yeah. 12GB or so for / and big seperate home in that case [04:12] !find automatix [04:13] well anyway thanks for all your help everyone, including sebsebseb thanks and bye!:-D [04:13] racecar56: rEADING [04:14] TopBunny98: what how shutdown and logout is removed from system? [04:14] racecar56: Thats a truncated paste of a complete dmesg output. The useful stuff is at the bottom of the entire output, that is why we are using like: dmesg|tail for this [04:14] genii, so.... what to do? [04:15] Hello everyone [04:15] hi [04:15] Howdy [04:15] Dominus: hi [04:15] sebsebseb: It more whewre things like Virtual box areput in the menues [04:15] Im looking for some help int this comunity [04:15] racecar56: Hm. Please pastebin result of: sudo ifconfig -a [04:15] Dominus: with? [04:15] 9.04 takes 3 or 4 sec to wake up...what can i do to speed this up? [04:15] Im a new ubuntu user, migrating from MS [04:15] TopBunny98: it's always gone there [04:16] racecar56: I think maybe it's working but hidden [04:16] Dominus: I'll be there shortly...hopefully...if I can ever get it to install on my laptop :D [04:16] genii, warning: i only have one ethernet cable and i have to connect one at a time [04:16] I installed ubuntu using WUBI [04:16] Meinmartini: what's the issue? [04:16] Dominus, welcome. [04:16] Dominus: oh wubi oh no [04:16] it was working pretty well [04:16] Dominus: Wubi is ok for trying, but I woudn't recommend it for long term usage [04:16] yea [04:17] Ok seb [04:17] but is because Im new user [04:17] * traskbt cheers for *finally* getting networking in Windows XP under Qemu in Ubuntu 8.10 [04:17] ever sense i updated my ubuntu flash stopped w0orkin and I got it installed [04:17] seb: it has to do when I'm booting the installation disc. I see the Ubuntu logo, and the status bar (that swings back and forth). Eventually it just stalls and does nothing. [04:17] genii, http://racecar56.pastebin.com/f2e46a129 [04:17] Dominus: well itis pretty easy to partiton [04:17] Dominus: the hard disk [04:17] and for a while, I want to put all my office applications to work [04:17] sebsebseb: In pre jaunty versions of ubuntu Virtualbox would show up under the system tools menu [04:17] soo.. [04:17] Dominus: set up a dual boot, or maybe even get rid of Windows [04:18] ya [04:18] haha... [04:18] The installation disc did initially work, but there was an error in doing a partition with the hard drive. Since then, I can't get it to work at all [04:18] Im trying to do that [04:18] TopBunny98: oh right well I haven't clean installed my 8.10 to alpha6, to beta to rc, install. that has a few issues. and then clean installed 9.04 with Ext4 :) [04:18] TopBunny98: when I do that I am going virtual machine crazy, loads of OS's to try out [04:19] TopBunny98: no virtualbox currently installed also [04:19] ? [04:19] brb [04:19] but until I have probed a couple of work applications, I can`t do that [04:19] Meinmartini: ok first of all md5sum the ISO make sure the codes are good === deva_afk is now known as devananda [04:19] Meinmartini: then burn it a bit slower [04:19] !md5sum [04:19] To verify the integrity of a download, use the md5sum - see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowToMD5SUM for more [04:20] Hi [04:20] I'll give that a try. [04:20] Windows crashed, I had to go to restauration point [04:20] How come when i play wolfenstein enemy territory i lag? [04:20] My optical drive on my desktop is a little bit overzealous [04:20] my mouse lags really [04:20] Dominus: you can run Windows inside Ubuntu [04:20] and after that, Ubuntu doesn`t start [04:20] Dominus: as long as you got enough RAM, fine for everything except like 3D gaming [04:21] And I download the .iso file directly from the Ubuntu website, so hopefully they're good. Wouldn't make much sense otherwise, but I'll double-check [04:21] racecar56: Bleh, not showing there [04:21] Dominus, so, once windows blew, wubi wouldn't work. [04:21] Dominus: at the moment since you got wubi, you got Ubuntu inside a part of Windows, and well that's sucky [04:21] ok [04:21] HHOW COME I LAG WHEN I PLAY WOLFENSTEIN ENEMY TERRITORY [04:21] SORRY FOR CAPS [04:21] !caps [04:21] PLEASE DON'T SHOUT! We can read lowercase too. [04:21] Funny thing is that the disc works when I'm in XP. I had to install a boot-helper since Ubuntu wouldn't start on its own when starting up the laptop [04:21] MY KEYBORED IS MESSED UP [04:21] Krine11: go ask about wine games in #winehq [04:21] I can't dual boot xp :) [04:22] WOLFENSTEIN IS NOT A WINE GAME.. [04:22] ever sense i updated my ubuntu flash stopped w0orkin and I got it installed [04:22] So, you're lucky. [04:22] ITS A LINUX GAME [04:22] Dominus, technically I think it is possible to resurrect a wubi install of ubuntu from an ntfs partition without windows. [04:22] Krine11: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. [04:22] I'm not going to dual-boot w/XP. [04:22] Would you recommend to Install Ubuntu, and after that some kind of Virtual Machine? [04:22] If I can get the installation to work, I'm wiping the whole hard drive. [04:22] kaj: why not? [04:22] and run window? [04:22] racecar56: Hmm... does: lsmod| grep usbnet show a result or return to prompt? [04:22] Dominus: there's also Wine [04:22] SO [04:22] Dominus: it allows many Windows programs to work in Desktop GNU/Linux [04:22] THERE IS A LINUX DOWNLOAD [04:22] DUMB.. [04:23] guys [04:23] ok [04:23] now [04:23] i was testing your great support [04:23] Seb, I havent overcome a trouble with Internet Explorer, I MUST use it because a crapy app at my office [04:23] i got to admit, its not so good. [04:23] First of all [04:23] Dominus: which version of IE? [04:23] I am makeing a video to help advertise ubuntu [04:23] 5 or later [04:23] Dominus: you can even run that horrible browser in Ubuntu [04:23] can anyone recommend a ftp gui to transfer files between a suse linux computer and ubuntu? [04:23] Krine, did you just come here to complain? [04:23] OpenGL is slow for me. Please help. [04:24] sam555: filezilla [04:24] Dominus, try ies4linux [04:24] jdu++ [04:24] Dominus: in fact you can run like 3 versions with yeah ies4linux [04:24] mikegriffin: thanks! [04:24] yes, but It use java, and some how, It doesn´t start the application [04:24] Dominus: BUT stuff like that should only be for web testing or yeah stupid apps [04:24] Dominus: you need to install Java [04:25] guys I have achieved to star and use IE [04:25] Slow day. [04:25] I know [04:25] hey everyone, when i installed ubuntu i made one partition for ubuntu, now i need to install windows for my job(requirement), i was wondering if theres anyway i can repartition without formatting my drive? [04:25] Dominus: first I think a proper dual boot set up, I can help with that, helped around 10 people with this and other stuff. [04:26] Dominus: then install stuff [04:26] but as i told you, I had to use that application [04:26] whats that? [04:26] Dominus, as a heads up, the ies4linux install script should be run without graphics enabled or it might crash in my experience. [04:26] Dominus: so you put Ubuntu on your hard disk for real, instead of with Wubi [04:26] Hi All I just started using Ubuntu. It's installed on my old laptop sound is working for everything else but when I put Amarok on nothing will play through it. Any thoughts would be great thanks. [04:26] jdu ok [04:26] mikegriffin: do you think I could sudo apt get filezilla? [04:26] Dominus: or maybe try virtual machine inside wubi first [04:27] Seb mmm it sounds good [04:27] Dominus: may be able to get you off Windows entirely except for in a virtual machine [04:27] Dominus: or maybe no virtual machine at all if Wine will do it [04:27] hey everyone, when i installed ubuntu i made one partition for ubuntu, now i need to install windows for my job(requirement), i was wondering if theres anyway i can repartition without formatting my drive? [04:27] Wine isn´t enought [04:27] Dominus, there is an option for the script to only run text based. [04:27] Dominus: how much RAM do you have? [04:27] 2G [04:28] Dominus: ok that's rather good for a virtual machine [04:28] ok [04:28] Dominus: and none of your apps are say 3D games or something that would use a lot of resources CAD or whatever [04:28] Dominus: ? [04:28] briscoelake: Any sound at boot up, like that sax ? [04:28] nop [04:28] taylor04: please make the most rudimentary efforts to find out the solution prior to coming here. [04:28] very simple [04:28] OpenGL is slow for me. Please help. [04:28] Dominus: and you got a XP CD or Vista DVD? [04:28] PlasmaSheep, whats your video driver? [04:28] mikegriffin: sorry, found it in the package manager [04:29] Yes vista, for my laptop [04:29] toshiba [04:29] Vigo: yeah there is sound for everything but amarok [04:29] hi all, can anyone help with various issues setting up digital sound output? [04:29] plasmasheep: i have, however i live in china and am unable to get on the ubuntu forums [04:29] Dominus: should work yeah [04:29] My laptop's a Toshiba, too :D [04:29] Dominus: external hard disk? to move data over to? [04:29] I must have a memory leak or something. My system is crashing all the time. I wonder whats happening. My .xsession-errors file is full of candidates. Can someone help before I crash again? http://paste.ubuntu.com/162551/ [04:29] briscoelake: Ubuntu or Kubuntu? [04:29] taylor04: I've been meaning to ask someone in china about blocks [04:29] Out of curiosity, guys, if anyone can answer: For those who have been using ubuntu for awhile, how good is it on resources? [04:29] briscoelake, have u installed libxine1-ffmpeg [04:29] Dominus: dual boot to begin with or virtual machine and wine thinking [04:29] Is there any slowdown time, is it bad on RAM, boot times, load times? [04:30] hello [04:30] taylor04: Do many people just use a proxie out of china? [04:30] Meinmartini, what specs are you working with [04:30] not, but I have a partition, and data are out of prymary one [04:30] back [04:30] Hello Guys. I made a fresh install of ubuntustudio 9.04 in my desktop. Seemed to work fine, but when I installed Open Office synaptic froze while installing a plugin called "word2latex" or something similar. I ran "sudo dpkg --configure -a" and the same thing happened. Then I ran "sudo dpkg --remove -a", and since that I'm having all sort of strange issues, like vuze does freeze while downloading updates and such. Any hints on how can I solve this? [04:30] Meinmartini, it's very good [04:30] does anyone knows how to install civicrm on joomla [04:30] Vigo: regualr ubuntu and I'm not sure on the second one [04:30] please help [04:30] My laptop has I think 2.5GHz processor and 2GB RAM [04:30] ever sense i updated my ubuntu flash stopped w0orkin and I got it installed [04:30] joemar: with? [04:30] joomla [04:30] Meinmartini, it will run great on that [04:30] dcider: not sure what that is or how to get it [04:30] Ada2358: yes, but it depends on the block, a lot of websites will work with a proxy however some sites like youtube have a stronger block on them, even a basic proxy wont work with exception of a private server with ssh or something on it [04:30] Dominus: try your apps in Wine now maybe [04:31] briscoelake: Ok, Amarok is like the KDE thing, normally, that is why I asked [04:31] Dominus: your on Ubuntu now I assume? [04:31] Meinmartini, it runs fine on my 500mhz 128mb ram [04:31] Dominus: in Wubi [04:31] binarymutant, lol [04:31] taylor04, honestly, the main problem you will run into is that windows will rewrite the mbr and you won't be able to boot ubuntu until you restart grub. [04:31] nop [04:31] has anyone gotten the ir blaster remote to work with the hauppauge hd pvr 1212.... i would really like to use the IR remote [04:31] So do you know many people who get access to an outside box just for ssh? [04:31] binarymutant: awesome [04:31] hello guys [04:31] Dominus: XP? [04:31] taylor04, I meant reinstall grub [04:31] vista [04:31] Maybe I can save my parents' old PC with Ubuntu... [04:31] Dominus: ok [04:31] jdu: thanks [04:31] Dominus: download the Ubuntu 9.04 Desktop CD and remove wubi [04:31] Ada2358: not a lot, most chinese people dont even realize their internet is censored [04:32] briscoelake: By default Rythmbox is the music player for Ubuntu, and Totem is the movie thing. [04:32] Windows crashed and I had to star from restauration point [04:32] anyone on the group might help me installing cicvicrm on joomla [04:32] vigo: yeah and both aren't that good, Banshee :) mplayer is good to [04:32] 9.04 [04:32] taylor04: Thats what I was afraid of... [04:32] ok [04:32] vigo: oh and sure vlc [04:32] mainmartini, you might want to install puppy linux on very old computers [04:32] genii, sooo.... what to do? [04:32] Thanks :P [04:32] vigo: Totem is ok [04:32] Ada2358: but it drives some of us foreigners crazy, theyve blocked youtube for 2 months now.... [04:33] Vigo & Dcider: Being new I had just always heard about amarok I'll try rythmbox and totem [04:33] racecar56: Did: lsmod| grep usbnet show a result or return to prompt? [04:33] guys [04:33] Seb, from windows starting point, ubuntu doesen´t start [04:33] briscoelake, sudo apt-get install libxine1-ffmpeg [04:33] anyone on the grtoup on my problem [04:33] genii, shows result [04:33] sebsebseb: Just working with what we have as default, but I certainly agree. [04:33] Hello Guys. I made a fresh install of ubuntustudio 9.04 in my desktop. Seemed to work fine, but when I installed Open Office synaptic froze while installing a plugin called "word2latex" or something similar. I ran "sudo dpkg --configure -a" and the same thing happened. Then I ran "sudo dpkg --remove -a", and since that I'm having all sort of strange issues, like vuze does freeze while downloading updates and such. Any hints on how can I solve this? [04:33] genii, usbnet 23944 1 dm9601 [04:33] mii 13312 3 dm9601,usbnet,sis900 NIIIICE [04:33] racecar56: EG: the chipset driver may be right but not loading the intermediate usbnet layer [04:33] Dominus: ok well whatever remove wubi :) [04:33] genii, usbnet 23944 1 dm9601 mii 13312 3 dm9601,usbnet,sis900 :D [04:33] Seb Ok [04:34] genii, it saw it! :D [04:34] Dominus: assuming you don't have data in there, I guess you don't [04:34] And the best Installation would be.. [04:34] Dominus: a real proper partitioned set up [04:34] racecar56: Weird that not seeing some other net device then [04:34] no data there. rigth [04:34] Dominus: with no psyicall WIndows by the sounds of it in your case [04:34] Dominus: nothing unless you saved something there [04:34] genii, oops [04:35] Hehe [04:35] Can someone help me switch the multitouch settings for my touchpad? For me the middle and right buttons are reversed. I would like two-finger + click = right and 3-finger + click = middle. I tried messing with a hal thing (http://paste.ubuntu.com/162554/). [04:35] dcider: ok I did that the ? is what did I do lol [04:35] genii, sooo... now what? [04:35] Dominus: which apps do you want from Windows?# [04:35] genii, btw sis900 is my builtin network adapter that works [04:35] briscoelake, one more time.... [04:36] The only one left is that, out of my access... [04:36] racecar56: Maybe try manual bring-up.eg: sudo ifconfig eth1 192.168.1.111 up (as an IP example in there) and see if SIO errors or other stuff [04:36] a data base based on IE === hendrixski_ is now known as hendrixski [04:36] dcider: I ran the command but I'm not sure what that command does, I am quite the noob [04:36] Dominus: Microsoft Access? or something else [04:36] I migrated everything else [04:36] racecar56: Sorry, ifconfig no-go...1 minute [04:36] nop. Is a web based [04:36] Dominus: ok should be good then [04:37] And as I have told, It doesn´t work in any other browser [04:37] Dominus: that's the only app? [04:37] briscoelake, copy and paste into terminal, should install the ffmpeg codec [04:37] Dominus: it's not a problem [04:37] nnutter, perhaps use xev to test what events are being caused by the touchpad and then use xmodmap to reassign what they mean. [04:38] racecar56: No, got confused for a sec between ifconfig and ifup. ifconfig IS the one we want, ifup uses /etc/network/interfaces so if not there it won't think it exists, etc [04:38] Dominus: a few ways that horrible browser can run inside Ubuntu [04:38] briscoelake, then open amarok, should work [04:38] It uses some MS propietary software tool, I don´t know which one [04:38] (I'm getting tired) [04:38] genii, k [04:38] dcider: ok the 2nd part of your response answered my question. I did already put it into the terminal and it ran succesfully. I'll test amarok now, Thanks [04:38] It´s very Important to run with java [04:38] okay, how do a mount a portable usb drive with read/write permissions? [04:38] Dominus: downloading the Ubuntu 9.04 desktop CD yet? [04:38] jdu: certainly a possibility, I used that with some key bindings. I would like to know how to do it the "right" way with a hal policy though. [04:38] Ah yes,dcider; I had forgotten about that one, good call. [04:38] no yet [04:38] genii, SIOCSIFADDR: No such device (is that a sio?) [04:39] Dominus: why not? [04:39] Wow, jaunty is the first release that sound doesn't work on my T43p. [04:39] racecar56: Yes. [04:39] I can't move any files to an ext3 filesystem I have on a usb HD [04:39] but if you give me the instructions, I will follow exactly [04:39] genii, i also got eth1: ERROR while getting interface flags: No such device [04:39] thedark: sure you can if you sort the permission issue out [04:39] racecar56: Give me a minute or so [04:39] nnutter, unfortunately I don't have experience with the 'right' way ;( [04:39] genii, k [04:39] thedark: gksudo nautiilus should do it [04:39] thedark: be careful not to delete a part of your system when doing that [04:39] dcider: Thanks that got it working, Is Rythmbox better or easier to use. As I said before I only put that on because some of my friends run it [04:39] Does anyone happen to know, while installing Ubuntu, will the GRUB recognize windows if windows is on a different hard drive? [04:40] thedark: also if you right click on the device and go to poperties can probably change it's permissions [04:40] !permissiosn [04:40] Sorry, I don't know anything about permissiosn [04:40] !permissions [04:40] An explanation of what file permissions are and how they can be manipulated can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FilePermissions [04:40] binarymutant: I use the intel one. [04:40] ToastBot: yes should do [04:40] vigo, only cause it hornswaggled mefor a while [04:40] Kk, thanks [04:40] ToastBot: totally ;) [04:40] ToastBot: if Windows was on there first, and if not it's pretty easy to make it so it does [04:41] ToastBot, grub can be set up to do so even if the install fails at it. [04:41] ToastBot: if it does not heres a how to ;) [04:41] !grub > ToastBot [04:41] ToastBot, please see my private message [04:41] uh, bad news [04:41] I just haven't put Ubuntu on this computer because the hard drive was too small... I just ordered a new one and was planning on putting everything from this one to the new one and install Ubuntu on the old one. I wasn't sure if GRUB would automatically recognize other hard drives [04:41] when i clicked on the "check" button in the update manager, it downloaded the files, then complained about a corrupt file [04:41] hi, i'm running my irc client(weechat) on a virtual console (tty2) is there a way to send/receive commands or sth like that from another tty (in this position i want to open links in my x session tty7) [04:42] E: The package cache file is corrupted [04:42] E: _cache->open() failed, please report. [04:42] OpenGL is slow for me. Please help. [04:42] PlasmaSheep, did u install fglrx? [04:42] dcider: Understand, it had me working my brain on BSD, it finally worked. [04:42] ToastBot, grub doesn't do anything automatically per se. It is told what to do in /boot/grub/menu.lst [04:42] vesa dirvers are acting up for me too [04:42] ToastBot: gksudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst from terminal to edit [04:42] racecar56: what's that? it's not in the repos. [04:43] jdu: np, thank you for responding. I'll definitely try that if I can't figure out how to use the hal policy. I just found one tool, `lshal`. Will at least let me check if the file is being read. [04:43] PlasmaSheep: it actually is [04:43] PlasmaSheep, its a video card driver, it's not litterally called fglrx though [04:43] !fglrx | racecar56 [04:43] racecar56: For Ati/NVidia/Matrox video cards, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto [04:43] PlasmaSheep, *misspell [04:43] racecar56: I don't have an ati/nvidia/matrox card [04:43] PlasmaSheep, what DO you have [04:44] racecar56: As I mentioned above, I have an intel card [04:44] nnutter, thanks for the mention of lshal.

If I wasn't trying to save my files, then I would have done that by now. [05:42] jwzja use eeebuntu [05:42] is the reason r2-d2 beeps so much because someone fucked up the alsa drivers?

No bluetooth? I really like the UNR because it is built on i386, so you can dpkg or apt-get anything you want, and the UNR interface is optional.

[05:51] Tha_Stig: um can you make a live USB then?? [05:52] AK_Dave - that's what I thought originally, but I've tried everything - 9.04 just can't seem to recognize the netgear router. By the way, 8.10 worked just fine with both routers. [05:52] tha_stig what are boot options in bios? [05:52] i am downloading the latest ubuntu right now to try unetbootin with it [05:52] angela, does the netgear router have any security settings like Mac address filtering or wpa? [05:52] Tha_Stig: forget it ,unetbootin fails big time [05:52] its usb, hard disk and network [05:52] angela: Perhaps you have hidden SSID enabled on the netgear router?

[05:56] doesnt the live cd have it's own bootloader/grub? [05:57] chetnick: Sec [05:57] shadeslayer: alright [05:57] voss: But the FAA does require the airline to do some certification on the plane that is going to have wifi. Which just means more money paid to paranoid avionics techs. [05:57] shadeslayer: I'm on the live cd, and that's not really working either [05:57] dcider, Well it appears that Amarok is the only app that like Pulse-Audio, the world just makes no sense any longer, lol [05:57] Tha_Stig: the live CD uses Syslinux for a bootloader, I believe [05:57] chetnick: Tucan!

[06:21] kinabalu: you're just editing /etc/apt/sources.list to change all cases of gutsy to hardy, updating the repos, and upgrading the software... not scary at all [06:21] aaronfay: did that work? [06:21] Hi there, how would I remove a program that I compiled and installed with configure, make, and make install? [06:22] Hello, where does jockey-gtk get it's drivers from? and can i download them manually? [06:22] joe_: make uninstall in the source directory [06:22] I think I should just go back to Ubuntu 8.10 until 9.04 resolved its MAJOR issues with the wireless internet connection (or lack thereof)..... [06:22] fde: since Gutsy is eol, won't the repo addresses have to change to old-releases.ubuntu.com as well? [06:22] k thx fde [06:22] ripps, Gnea , cp -a --copy-contents dir1/ dir2/ works, ripps, you missed the trailing slashes [06:22] jamie_: from the restricted section, and sure... although they're there by default [06:22] fde: yeah, so 8.04 is what i want basically, yes? [06:22] 有没有人说中文? [06:22] angela: could do [06:22] Darael: no, because he is upgrading to hardy, not staying with a EOL version [06:22] angela: and it's got another year of suppourt anyway [06:22] error404notfound: Oh, yeah, I forgot to type those, sorry [06:22] kinabalu: yes [06:23] !cn | a4ck [06:23] a4ck: For Ubuntu help in Chinese 您可以访问中文频道： #ubuntu-cn 或者 #ubuntu-tw 或者 #ubuntu-hk [06:23] error404notfound: pretty sure both methods work :) [06:23] fde: ah. I see. [06:23] I noticed it downloades them could i download it from the driver store manually? [06:23] scunizi: it did, thanks [06:23] sebsebseb: You're right :-) I love the new Ubuntu, but need my wireless connection more... [06:23] Darael: he could use old-releases.u.c if he didn't care about security or bug fixes, but that is just a bad idea on a server [06:23] Where and how do I manipulate the visual effects for my desktop? I already have it set to extra, but have no idea where to access extra features like cube, etc [06:23] thanks [06:23] angela: probably can configure it, and it's not Ubuntu's fault, it's stupid hardware manufactures that made for Windows [06:24] angela: and only Windows [06:24] fde: yes, I understand that. Just a little slow this morning. [06:24] fde: I noticed it downloades them could i download it from the driver store manually? [06:24] jamie_: they are already on your system... you're over-thinking this for no reason [06:25] angela: ndiswrapper gets Windows drivers working in Linux [06:25] angela: might need to do that [06:25] !ccsm | steven [06:25] steven: To enable advanced customization of desktop effects in Ubuntu: install 'compizconfig-settings-manager' or 'simple-ccsm'. If you install the latter, a new option will appear in your appearance properties - See also !compiz - Help in #compiz-fusion [06:25] sebsebseb: That's why I recently turned my back on Windows after 15 years and started working with Linux 3 months ago. Despite the issues, I have no intention of going back to Windows. [06:25] error404notfound: I know what I did now. You have to go into the dir1 first. "cd dir1 && cp -a --copy-contents . ../dir2/" [06:25] I have a reason because i need to be able to dwonload them for another computer. [06:25] fde: I have a reason because i need to be able to dwonload them for another computer. [06:25] ripps, yes, or you can append trailing slashes :P [06:25] jamie_: as I said, they are already on the systems you've installed... they are on the install cd [06:25] Where and how do I manipulate the visual effects for my desktop? I already have it set to extra, but have no idea where to access extra features like cube, etc [06:26] oops nvm [06:26] fde: propietry drivers? [06:26] Thanks, AK_Dave and sebsebseb... good night... [06:27] jamie_: yes, they are in the restricted section, which is fully supported... look at 'apt-cache show linux-restricted-modules-`uname -r`' [06:27] ripps, okay, last question, how can i exclude a certain dir from getting copied? also i have seen people use rsync even from local copy, whats the advantage of it over cp except the comparison operations? [06:27] jamie_: copy and paste as the ` direction is important [06:28] I mounted /dev/hda10 to /tmp . (http://paste.debian.net/34977). I would like to undo that. If I comment out line #31, the partition /dev/hda10 will not mount but an error appears "No disk space available." How to fix that? [06:28] fde: Well mu usernames jamie do i put that in? [06:28] hi [06:28] unable to mount drive [06:29] jamie_: no :/ [06:29] pawan1234: usb? [06:29] hard drive [06:29] pawan1234-> please give more info [06:30] fde: Do i need the install cd in the drive? [06:30] unable to mount volume [06:30] error404notfound: rsync is able to work over a network, and I'm sure it has alot more features than cp. As for cp things in a sophisticated manner, I'd probably write a bash script using for loops [06:30] jamie_: I assume so, else you'd just be doing it like normal people and using jockey-gtk on the other system [06:31] !mount [06:31] For help with partitioning a new install see: https://help.ubuntu.com/8.04/switching/installing-partitioning.html - For partitioning programs see !GParted, !QtParted (!Kubuntu 8.10 and lower) or !PartitionManager (!Kubuntu 9.04 and up) - Other partitioning topics include !fstab !home and !swap [06:31] jamie_: I assume you aren't using it because it doesn't currently have internet access [06:31] fde: I can't use jockey-gtk becuase it does not have internet acess without this driver. [06:31] ripps, hmmm, thats what i though, i use duplicity for backups and its really great.... Still looking for how to exclude a certain dir say excludeDir from dir1 when copying contents to dir2... [06:32] i guess i would need RE or may be a loop here... [06:32] error404notfound: I'd have to read up on duplicity [06:32] error404notfound, tar -cvf --exclude ? [06:33] ripps, its nice, its like rsync, but with encryption... love it.. [06:33] usser, nope, not tar, just "cp" [06:33] error404notfound, oh === h8red is now known as BIZZAROh8red [06:34] error404notfound: according to a duplicty manual I read online, duplicity has an --exclude flag [06:34] ripps, yes, rsync also have i think... [06:35] any suggestion regarding simple and cool theme for my ubuntu desktop ?! [06:36] v4vijayakumar, kde4-oxygen [06:36] usser: mine is gnome, I think === john is now known as Guest55843 [06:36] v4vijayakumar-> have a look here: http://www.gnome-look.org/ [06:37] v4vijayakumar: My favorite is Dust, in fact I've made a customized version called Dust Cold, it's available at gnome-look.org [06:37] ubuntu just randomly deleted a file and i dont know what it was === michael` is now known as dROg [06:38] i hope i didn't need it [06:38] ripps: I was using human for a long time now.. so thought of changing it [06:39] v4vijayakumar: yeah, I got tired of oranges and browns in Human, even Dust uses brown alot, so I made my own that was more blue in color. Also, my preferred icon theme is black-white2 [06:39] Is it possible for anything I do in Ubuntu to spread to my Windows partition? [06:39] I mounted /dev/hda10 to /tmp . (http://paste.debian.net/34977). I would like to undo that. If I comment out line #31, the partition /dev/hda10 will not mount but an error appears "No disk space available." How to fix that? [06:40] does anybody know how to use Gparted? [06:40] GParted [06:40] quizme, yea sup? [06:40] If it's unmounted if I do run across some kind of malware it shouldn't be possible for it to infect my Windows partition correct? [06:40] anyone know a source where I can get more-bleeding-edge-than-backports backports? [06:40] how about "MacOS-X Aqua Theme"..?! :) [06:40] ripps, if i use rsync: rsync -avz -F --exclude=cache vhosts /var/vhosts [06:40] like ruby 1.9.1 for 8.04 LTS? [06:41] error404notfound: just make sure you don't copy /proc, that'll screw things up [06:41] quizme: More than 10000 ubunteros know. [06:41] he is not replying [06:41] ripps, naah... i am just copying my old vhosts to a new server :D [06:42] w1 [06:42] phantom--: I have a 1.5 TB drive with 3 esistenting partitions: /dev/sda1 (ext3, 1.36 TB), /dev/sda2 (extended, 9.37 GB), /dev/sda5 (linux-swap, 9.37GB), I want to make like five 250GB partitions. How do i do that? [06:42] sorry long reply [06:42] i'm scared to touch anything, cuz i don't want to reinstall the whole OS. everything is working fine now. [06:43] btw, there is no data on here to be lost. it's a fresh install of ubuntu 9.04 [06:43] v4vijayakumar: Search through gnome-look.org and download a variety of themes that like, maybe one will be for you, if not, you could probably mix and match a few by using the Customize option in Appearence [06:43] quizme: Download a gparted-live iso, burn, boot on it, resize :) [06:43] hateball, i just did that [06:44] hateball: i just need to do the resize part [06:44] ripps: I am doing the same. thanks. :) [06:44] v4vijayakumar: your welcome [06:44] quizme: Just shrink sda1 so you free up enough space to do whatever you want then [06:45] hateball: ok [06:45] just installed gparted, but i dont see it in the applicacions, how can i without restart? [06:45] quizme, [06:45] quizme: Then you'll hvae to add the new partitions in /etc/fstab after you're done [06:46] phantom---: it's in system stuff [06:46] hateball: ok thnx [06:46] hateball, its not [06:46] phantom---: Well I dunno the proper translation... just run "gparted" from a !terminal then :) [06:47] true, but i though there was a way to refresh X [06:48] hateball: what should i call the new partitions ? [06:48] quizme, what i did b4 was run live cd and from there install gparted and ban did all i wanted [06:48] bam* [06:48] phantom--: what's bam ? [06:49] just pronounce it [06:49] gun shot? [06:49] do i make it the other partitions, ext3 also? the default was ext2 [06:50] i use ext3 [06:50] i'm scared [06:50] lol [06:50] lol [06:50] ok ext3 it is [06:50] how about the label ? [06:50] what should i pu t for the label? [06:50] wat u need 5 partitions for? [06:50] phantom--- in case one fails, i still have backup. [06:51] two is fine :D [06:51] what should i use for the lable? [06:51] Anyone ever heard of Linux malware the spreads to Windows partitions? [06:51] /dev/sda3 ? [06:51] evilGUI: no [06:52] it names it for u quizme [06:52] quizme, if 1 fails you probably lost the drive anyway [06:52] I mounted /dev/hda10 to /tmp . (http://paste.debian.net/34977). I would like to undo that. If I comment out line #31, the partition /dev/hda10 will not mount but an error appears "No disk space available." How to fix that? [06:52] ðø [06:52] phantom-- so leave it blank ? [06:52] whats the proper way to setup a user to use sudo? [06:52] hi [06:52] out of the box it doesn't do this, yes?

[06:56] phantom--- ok, i hope it doesn't make my HD explode [06:56] Robertc1985-> what do you need to do that you need to be root [06:56] fde: ahh, so its like apple hardware, never by the first rev [06:56] is there a ppc version of WINE anywhere on the net? or something to allow me to run exe's on this ps3?

[06:57] kinabalu: sort of... its just the first version of an LTS is no more stable than a normal release, which isn't suitable for a server [06:57] fde: indeed. [06:57] hi every one [06:58] i need some help plz [06:58] hi [06:58] zountou05: might help if you ask your question [06:58] zountou05, you'll have to tell us what. please keep the description all on one line. [06:59] http://paste.ubuntu.com/162604/ [06:59] i have ubuntu when i won't uplod some fils to my fliker or my yahoo my pc get blockd the same thing when i won't save fils [06:59] has anyone had success with hd out using any of the ati mobility radeon cards (HD2600 for me) [07:00] is there a ppc version of WINE anywhere on the net? or something to allow me to run exe's on this ps3? [07:00] Robertc1985: nope, your best bet might be something like virtualbox === carsonc_ is now known as carsonc [07:00] Robertc1985: might have to go with qemu though as it'll need to emulate a CPU, not just virtualize it [07:00] ok, will qemu work? [07:01] ok [07:02] there is no solution to my prob [07:02] the closest thing i currently have is dosbox with win 3.1 [07:03] why is nautilus showing in Places one of not-mounted patitions? And how do I get rid of it? [07:03] Good Morning :) [07:03] Does anyone know how to get a PPTP connection working ? [07:03] May I have help with sound, please [07:03] I've a problem with the Sound in Ubuntu 9.04 [07:03] I'm running Ubuntu 9.04 since a week now and since yesterday, I don't have anymore sound on my system : from vlc nor mplayer but I have the pidgin notification ! I restarted pulse then restarted my computer, nothing change, check all sound level, still correct. I never had any sound issue since a long time but this time, i'm stuck :-/ Got an onboard nVidia MCP51 HD (rev a2) who was never a troublemaker, any idea please? [07:03] lol, me too ;) [07:03] Robertc1985: Qemu does *work*, but it's not worth the trouble since it's awfully slow on the PS3. Also, there's #ubuntu-ps3 [07:04] The Sound is working , but iam simply unable to record it [07:04] yeah they're never active [07:04] its really freaking me out xD [07:04] hi, can someone please check something here? See description for "linux-backports-modules-2.6.28-11-generic", and it implies that linux-generic depends on it, but this doesn't seem to be the case for me. Can anyone else verify this? [07:05] And any suggestions ? [07:05] i saw a vid on youtube of some guy running xp on their pse, needless to say it was agonizing [07:05] Its virtual Box as far as i know... [07:06] Installed over Yellow-Dog Linux [07:06] is there a specific help channel for people that are new to Ubuntu [07:06] :) [07:06] hateball: thing is, nothing else will work since he wants proprietary x86 software running on a PPC [07:06] Soren_: here [07:06] fde, ty [07:07] Any ideas ???? My sound is working , but when i try to record it , it simply wont work :((((((( [07:07] i would settle for react OS [07:07] how to add C++ headers to monodevelop library ? [07:07] Robertc1985: again, I don't even think reactOS works on PPC at all [07:07] And iam not talking about the Mic... the Mic itself is working [07:07] rocko: have you installed pptp-linux? [07:07] Robertc1985: It's also x86 [07:07] no in qemu [07:08] Robertc1985: Well, the PS3 is not a good choice of platform for such matters... also, this is fairly !ot [07:08] sexcopter: for me linux-generic depends on linux-image-generic and linux-restricted-modules-generic [07:09] does anyone here use kopete? [07:09] dijikul: #kubuntu folk do, probably [07:09] darcknight lost+found [07:09] is someone able to help me walk through this https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting [07:09] fde: I use it in gnome though [07:09] hey, can anyone help me figure out why I cannot get my ubuntu 9.0.4 on the internet, but it will connect to the network? [07:10] Hello, I'm trying to fix a xserver configuration issue. I used to be able to drop into a terminal by using ctrl+alt+f[1-12]. However, it doesn't seem to work in 9.04. What can I do? [07:10] Tkdmaster: check that you can ping your dns server [07:10] vart: hmm, same here. I wonder if it's worth mentioning on launchpad or something... that's an inconsistency [07:10] Tkdmaster: it's 9.04 as it's based on the date... it represents April 09 [07:11] i am on jaunty and i feel that my sources.lst is not correct can this be corrected for me?? [07:11] sexcopter: why is it inconsistent? [07:11] i am on jaunty and i feel that my sources.lst is not correct can this be corrected for me?? http://paste.ubuntu.com/162606/ [07:11] sexcopter: no idea [07:11] Guys I have a problem and it has nothing to do with Linux, but I don't know where to go. [07:11] fde: because according to the description for linux-backports-modules-2.6.28-11-generic, linux-generic should depend on it. [07:11] o_o [07:11] PerryArmstrong: take a look at System > Administration > Software Sources [07:12] btakita, It should work, perhaps the computer is crashing rather than X simply not starting. Can you boot into recovery mode? [07:13] can anyone help me figure out as to why my ubuntu 9.0.4 can connect to the network via wired LAN but can't access the internet? theres no login or passwords required [07:13] sexcopter: I guess file it in launchpad, but I'm not sure most would want it really [07:13] Jordan_U: Yes. I can. The OS seems to die after starting the GDM. [07:14] Tkdmaster, Are you using DHCP?

And how do I get rid of it? [07:26] ubuntu whit fluxbox is very best unix system for new user [07:26] :D [07:26] Tkdmaster: you'll have to research the motherboard you have [07:26] ubuntu with fluxbox isn't ubuntu [07:26] Soren_: yes, so your sound device is loaded as snd-intel8x0 ... go into System > Preferences > Sound and ensure it has chosen the correct default device [07:26] ? [07:26] it's flubuntu [07:26] why? [07:27] Tkdmaster: you need to figure out what kinda networking card you have... research the model of the computer/laptop [07:27] grndslm: how so? fluxbox is in the *ubuntu* repos.... [07:27] plus91: ubuntu = gnome [07:27] then what? [07:27] ok [07:28] a bit of partitioning help? [07:28] why are the versions beyond hardy not supporting my monitor [07:28] Tkdmaster: I'm not sure... ya just have to start Googling for information on the hardware with Ubuntu or Linux [07:28] first time I'm trying to install Ubuntu directly (as in not a VM) [07:28] why are the versions beyond hardy not supporting my monitor...is there any solution [07:29] !repeat | PerryArmstrong [07:29] PerryArmstrong: 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 [07:29] Tkdmaster: all motherboards have 1 or 2 things that aren't supported, but it's small changes... and all the changes are different for every mobo [07:29] thanks [07:29] it has "autodectect" for Sound events / Sound playback [07:29] Tkdmaster: well, not *all*, but a lot of 'em [07:29] and am hitting into a problem - the hard disk in which I cleared a 60 gig partition to make way for this, is being shown as blank (as in, the other partitions in that disk are not being shown) [07:29] Soren_: at the bottom, where it says "Device:" :/ [07:29] however, i can access them from the live CD [07:29] Tkdmaster: that's why it's good to research Linux support with your mobo ahead of time ;) [07:29] there are 10 choices on the drop down menu [07:30] PerryArmstrong: have you tried sudp dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg? [07:30] i did that before i istalled it, and found it had perfect compatibility for my laptop model, which it does, wireless and everything else works fine, but it just will not connect to the internet when i hard wire it to the router or a switch [07:30] ok [07:30] Tkdmaster: research [07:30] Okay, I have a bit of an odd issue. [07:30] lstarnes; i suppose so...but i dont remember....do i have to?? [07:30] any ideas how i could get ubuntu to recognize the other partitions and safely create a linux partition in that 60 gig empty space? [07:30] PerryArmstrong: possibly [07:31] YuviPanda, put the other partitions in /etc/fstab file === gaintsura_ is now known as gaintsura [07:31] knoxville: okay (goes off to google for /etc/fstab) will ping back if i hit any snags [07:31] ok, this isn't gonna help me here, time to go to a forum board then....thanks anyways though =) [07:31] Defaulkt Mixer Tracks / Device............ now I have Intell 82801DB-ICH4 (Alsa Mixer) [07:32] YuviPanda, use gparted to make your partitions, its a gui application in the repos [07:32] knoxville: gparted is showing me the same thing [07:32] PerryArmstrong: Likely because of recent cnages in the way the X server uses the xorg.conf file. I would suggest to install read-edid and then to issue: sudo get-edid| parse-edid and then use the results for manual entries in your /etc/X11/xorg.conf file under the Configured Video Device area. [07:32] YuviPanda, which is what? [07:32] lstarnes; i ran the command.. [07:32] I was trying to boot 9.0.4 from a live CD. it works fine, but I can't do anything, because I can't turn my screen brightness down in time. See, one of the LEDs on my screen is burnt out, and on Windows I work around the problem by having the screen's brightness turned down, unfortunately, the key combination that adjusts the brightness (FN + Down) doesn't seem to work in Ubuntu; any advice? [07:32] knoxville: wait, i'll get the exact message [07:32] fde: Default Mixer Tracks / Device............ now I have Intell 82801DB-ICH4 (Alsa Mixer) [07:33] knoxville: the hard drive i want to use is /dev/sdc [07:33] PerryArmstrong: now try logging out then back in (not restarting) [07:33] genii; whats this read-edid??? [07:33] knoxville: and it's showing the entire 240 gigs as 'unallocated' [07:33] YuviPanda, do you have unalocated space on that hdd? [07:33] knoxville: yeah, i deleted a 60 gig partition (from Windows. I'm dual booting) [07:33] knoxville: i'm on the live cd now, btw. [07:33] YuviPanda, can you create a partition with that unalocated space? [07:34] fde? [07:34] PerryArmstrong: It is an application which scans your monitor/crt and extracts it's capabilities [07:34] knoxville: i don't want to, 'coz i have two other partitions in that hard disk that are *not* showing up. I don't want to lose data there. [07:34] Apparently he had no patience for a proper reply. Oh well. [07:34] YuviPanda, what format are the other partitions in? [07:35] knoxville: ntfs [07:35] lstarnes; didnt see any changes [07:35] knoxville: the partitions on all the other hard disks (sda and sdb) are being detected properly [07:35] YuviPanda, did you run "sudo fdisk -l" to see if the partitions show up? [07:35] fde, did you leave [07:35] knoxville: no, doin it now... [07:35] PerryArmstrong: can you change to higher resolutions? [07:35] YuviPanda, so sdc has ntfs partions on it? [07:35] knoxville: yeah [07:35] \nick pippo [07:35] YuviPanda, what do you want to do with those partitions? [07:36] exuseme [07:36] Hi! Can somebody clarify my doubt? [07:36] knoxville: it shows up. [07:36] lstarnes; no i am not able to...can u tell how i can paste my screenshots [07:36] YuviPanda, k run the fdisk command i told you too [07:36] knoxville: i want them to be there. there is 60 gigs of unallocated space there that i want to use to install linux [07:36] PerryArmstrong: I'm not sure [07:36] knoxville: yeah, sudi fdisk -l shows up the partitioins on sdc [07:37] *partitions [07:37] YuviPanda, you will need to install ntfs-3g to mount the ntfs partions, you can do this before or after the install [07:37] PerryArmstrong: try what genii recommended [07:37] YuviPanda, are you installing 9 or 8.0$? [07:37] 9.x [07:37] 8.04*? [07:37] knoxville: i can already mount ntfs (from the live CD) [07:37] YuviPanda, k during that install their should be an option to choose largest amount of unalocated free space when setting up partitions [07:37] lstarnes; i am sending you a screenshot..accept it [07:38] PerryArmstrong: I can't use dcc [07:38] still no sound :( [07:38] lstarnes; dcc?? [07:38] knoxville: exactly, i remember seeing those when i installed it in a VM. but now, it showed entire sdc as unallocated... [07:38] PerryArmstrong: the protocol used for sending files in irc [07:38] YuviPanda, if you choose this option it should install to your 60gb space [07:38] lstarnes; okk [07:38] both in the install partitioner and in gparted [07:38] but fdisk -l gets it right [07:38] PerryArmstrong: find another way to post it [07:38] need some serious help, been fighting with lockups (every 1 - 10mins). Tried every kernel option (noapic/noapci/etc), reinstalled 4 times. I *THINK* it's the wireless intel 4565 drivers as it always happens during network usage. Anyone else have this problem? [07:38] YuviPanda, have you restarted since then? [07:39] PerryArmstrong: like http://tinypic.com [07:39] Hi PerryArmstrong! May I have your attention please? [07:39] lol [07:39] yeah, i checked yesterday night, and now today morning [07:39] ankurwidguitar; ya [07:39] solorvox: I have the 4565 card, no problems so far [07:39] YuviPanda, i really don't know why fdisk would have it right, but gparted does not [07:39] knoxville: me neither [07:39] ankurwidguitar: just go ahead and ask your question [07:39] * Soren_ headdesks [07:39] knoxville: maybe i should sudo gparted? [07:39] Any reason not to partition my new netbook with one ext4 partition mounted as /, plus swap? [07:39] YuviPanda, it wouldn't hurt [07:40] user__, dang. I'm totally lost then.

I don't have access to any writable CDs right now and I really want to reformat this because it's feeling sluggish [08:07] !alternate | ankurwidguitar [08:07] ankurwidguitar: The Alternate CD is a classic text-mode install CD.

[08:10] that led to the nil effect [08:10] ubuntu616: you need to use alternate installation CD for it [08:10] genii; see this http://paste.ubuntu.com/162625/ [08:11] sys > admin >usb startup disc creator [08:11] like I said, I'm going for 2.0, where it seemed everyone else were just trying to get it to be seen at all [08:11] PerryArmstrong: Reading [08:11] ankurwidguitar; so whats the problem with the lternate cd [08:11] gartral1, so what is it that I should do? [08:11] well, pastebin your fdi.dontuse, please, ill make it usable :) [08:11] ankurwidguitar; so whats the problem with the *alternate cd [08:12] is KDE difficult to setup? [08:12] ubuntu616: and even with the alternate cds - if you have installed something that is not on the cd - it will try to access the inet to download updated packages [08:12] PerryArmstrong: Indicates X was still actually running somewhere. [08:13] genii; then how?? [08:13] PerryArmstrong: Gimme a minute, re-checking your config file [08:13] Question! how to remove the lnstalled package with of *.bin? [08:13] Dayofswords: no its not hard to setup [08:13] gartral1, sure thing. one sec [08:13] support ubuntu [08:13] ok coool [08:14] i need help setting the wolf bot, please someone help me [08:14] Speedy_the_king: whats the wolf bot? [08:14] i am new to this sevrver [08:14] server* [08:15] its a game bot [08:15] PerryArmstrong: I can't find any error with the xorg.conf file. Try a complete restart, return here again please [08:15] or known as Mafia [08:15] can someone help me with installing emerald theme manager i have a slight problem [08:15] this sint a game channel, its for an operating system [08:15] Hi all, I just used my ubuntu startup disk to backup and restore an image (using partimage). Once I restored it, the system won't fully boot. it just sits at a black screen with a blinking _. The partition is set to boot and all files (i believe) arepresent on it. any ideas? [08:15] Speedy_the_king: take it to the channel relevent to the game... [08:16] genii; what i did just now was a complete restart [08:16] i dont know where that might be in this server [08:16] Speedy_the_king: pm me.. [08:16] Speedy_the_king: If it's a game, it's probably on GameSurge [08:16] Speedy_the_king: look for somthing like # [08:16] PerryArmstrong: OK. Give me a minute to consider next tactic. [08:16] genii; ok [08:16] can someone help me with installing emerald theme manager i have a slight problem when i import the theme and try to turn i ton it does't change [08:17] quba_: reload compiz... the compiz fuzion icon is a nice applet [08:17] gartral1, http://pastebin.com/d761d5fc7 [08:17] halooooo [08:17] quba_: emerald --replace [08:17] that was the 20-libgphoto.......fdi [08:18] * plus91 Arrivo... [08:18] I don't have the .dontuse anymore, just the original [08:18] try compiz [08:18] we don't need to install emeral [08:20] ninotsmindelivar: is that e280 a v1 or v2? [08:20] ninotsmindelivar: dont go by cover go by firmware under settings>info, if it starts wit a 1, its v1, if anything else, its a v2 [08:21] heloo [08:21] gartral1, strangely, the working e280 is v2, i know this due to the disappointment of researching it back when i got it and realized I couldn't rockbox it (yet) [08:21] fw is 3.xxxxxxx [08:22] gartral1, are there different hw revs for the fuze? [08:23] ninotsmindelivar: ahh, i have an RBed e250, but thats ot here, so ill remove just the bits corrisponding to your sansas [08:23] ubuntu616 emerald is just a window decorator and its down to personal choice if you like it [08:24] gartral1, so removing the info will get it to work? is this a total nonsensical bug or is there logic to why this is the solution? just curious === volter is now known as Volter [08:25] ninotsmindelivar: the nonsense behind it is: whoever set up gphoto2 last, set a TON of mp3 players as cameras... not PMPs... [08:25] PerryArmstrong: Please pastebin result of command: grep Modeline /var/log/Xorg.0.log [08:26] interesting... so the e2xx series work fine, they're prob in there as pmps... but the fuze (and I've heard, the clip as well) are there as cams? [08:26] how do i reload compiz [08:27] ninotsmindelivar: yes, but not in this file, the reason this works is cause when gphoto cant find a device, the kernel then looks, and sees it as what it is, and not trying to assume its a frigging camera [08:27] how do I reload compiz ?? [08:28] quba_ compiz or the window manager? [08:28] true true [08:28] genii; no output [08:28] quba_ compiz --reload [08:28] quba_ oops... --reload is not an valid option, but it reloaded here anyways [08:29] hmw i think its --replace [08:29] koshari_ look i innstalled the emeranld theme manager and i just cant change the theme [08:29] gartral1, so this usb 1.1 issue is a known part of the jaunty Sansa woes? [08:29] guess its --replace, quba_ [08:29] thx koshari [08:29] I would like to print a PDF document on both sides of each sheet of paper, how do I do this? [08:29] quba have you opened the theme manager for emerald? [08:29] hplip? [08:29] PerryArmstrong: OK. What video card ? Command: lspci -nn | grep VGA result [08:30] MHz128 print odd pages, then turn the stack over and print even pages [08:30] koshari quba_ I like to use "fusion-icon" for managing the stuff.

Are there repositories with latest kernels for Ubuntu? [08:35] Severity1: You may need to use his full nick, I'm not sure he realises your comments are directed to him [08:36] Hi all, I have problem with wireless. Its not taking IP from DHCP, it is showing some 10.42.43.1. What to do? [08:36] oh boy, i hope gartral1 comes back... I was as close as I'd ever been on this sansa issue [08:38] i am having troubles with my MD9385 scanner, which is listed as supported by gt680xfw.usb. Picture is not of best possible quality (noise) and colors are wrong (turquise is shifted to green, reds look ok) - Please give me a hint on how to troubleshoot this [08:38] 大家好 [08:39] anybody using wireless on dell vostro series or intel 3945...? [08:40] 怎么加入UBUNTU中文频道 [08:40] I have problem with wireless on vostro 1400. Its not taking IP from DHCP, it is showing some 10.42.43.1. [08:40] saivin: intel 4965 here [08:41] saivin: in ipv4 settings is the mode set to DHCP ? [08:41] I've built 2.6.29 kernel, but it fails on install - postinst phase. How to know why it fails? [08:41] shadeslayer: is it working fine? i did sudo dhclient wlan0, but it is taking ip in 10.series [08:41] shadeslayer: how to check that? [08:42] saivin: in the networking applet in wifi tab [08:42] hey all [08:43] saivin: with certain wlan adaptors, NetworkManager does not work really. Replacing NM with "Wicd" often helps. [08:43] !hi | FuriousGeorge [08:43] FuriousGeorge: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu! [08:43] hmw: yeah im having problems setting up a adhoc network [08:43] setting up some lvm, and im wondering if there is a *buntu equivalent to /usr/portage/distfiles where apt-get fetches packages and saves them before unpacking [08:44] shadeslayer: this could be a different problem, though. I never managed to get an adhoc net running. :( [08:44] In NM, Under IPv4, Method its Automatic(DHCP) [08:44] PerryArmstrong: My local time is about 3:45AM ... so will soon depart with /away. I will be returning in approximately 10 hours for a stretch about 4 hours. If your issue is till unresolved please feel free to contact me then. [08:46] hmw: is wicd a package? i tried sudo apt-get install wicd, it says no package found [08:47] ninotsmindelivar: still here? [08:47] gartral, welcome back [08:47] yeah! [08:47] saivin: i can see that package [08:47] thought you'd quit [08:47] !info wicd [08:47] wicd (source: wicd): wired and wireless network manager. In component universe, is optional. Version 1.5.9-2 (jaunty), package size 247 kB, installed size 1860 kB [08:47] saivin: Installing wicd makes re-enabling NM difficult. Better look for a decent tutorial for "wicd ubuntu" [08:47] ninotsmindelivar: yea, AT&T dropped me twice in a row tonight [08:47] gartral, I took the snipped you worked on there thinking that was it, obviously it didn't do much for me [08:48] I have DVD+Rs that I'd like to burn with a booktype of DVD-ROM. I've read about dvd+r-tools, but I'm a little unclear as to how this interfaces with Brasero. Will it simply burn the disk once, then reset the booktype to default? Or do I need to burn with a command line tool? [08:48] I take it you weren't finished [08:48] ninotsmindelivar: i hadnt properly uploaded it cause inet went down, sorry [08:48] ok i can see wicd in synaptic. [08:49] but can't something b done at command line. the network is there but it has taken some strange ip, not from DHCP [08:49] gartral, no worries [08:49] I'm not goint anywhere :) [08:49] I'm really looking forward to being able to figure out what the issue here is [08:49] saivin: you could manually add the address [08:50] hmmmm firefox is erroing with Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 8388608 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 1459529 bytes) in /home/pastebin/lib/geshi/geshi.php on line 2355 when i was uploading ninotsmindelivar's fix... [08:50] saivin: those 10.... IPs are taken, when the DHCP server has not been reached. [08:51] shadeslayer: pls help me with that [08:51] i mean manual way [08:51] guess it would be temporary... [08:51] saivin: how can i,i dont know a thing about this.hmw might know [08:51] shadeslayer: manually adding the address wont solve the problem. His NM doesnt want to work with the wifi controlller. [08:52] gartral, if there's one thing to rely on with FF, it's that it works best when you're screwing around and it's only when you REALLY need to get something don that some error like that happens [08:52] hmw: what about through iwconfig and ifconfig [08:52] shadeslayer: i never made it work by manually doing stuff. Same goes for HSDPA modems. There must be some hidden magic somewhere. [08:52] ninotsmindelivar: ive noticed.... hold on, ill frigging do it throgh pastebinit [08:53] hi... installed ubuntu, works everything ok with generic kernel [08:53] i install the RT kernel and can't display the graphics well [08:53] Can anyone recommend a GTK theme that is smaller in scale, suitable for netbooks etc [08:53] saivin: the first google entry... http://wiki.ubuntuusers.de/WLAN/Wicd [08:53] it's easy to install ubuntu [08:53] it says "unsuitable screen" or something! (sorry, i don't remember exactly) [08:53] UBUNTU下有杀毒软件吗？ [08:54] ok will try that link. i tried with 'wireless on ubuntu' didnot find much info, i mean related to my problem. [08:54] it's a 22 inch widescreen screen (1680x1050), nvidia geforce6200, and linux-rt [08:54] MHz128: not exactly "small", but you can reduce window title bar by setting the font smaller. I like the C2 theme, because it looks well also with smaller size. [08:54] yes,you can find it by google [08:54] hmw, do u have a link for the C2 theme? [08:54] !cn | zzznn [08:54] zzznn: For Ubuntu help in Chinese 您可以访问中文频道： #ubuntu-cn 或者 #ubuntu-tw 或者 #ubuntu-hk [08:55] saivin: for some reason, Fedora does like all my Wifi cards _with_ NM. Strange. [08:55] hmw, im trying to reduce the size of the gtk widgets like buttons, scroll bars, etc etc [08:55] MHz128: no. *g* i'll google it for you [08:55] where are you?usa? [08:55] do somebody know how to install properly the nvidia driver in linux-rt in ubuntu 9.04? [08:55] ycp: we are wherever we want to be ;) [08:55] hmw: that link is in german. i cant see how to change languange.. :( [08:56] why is nautilus showing in Places one of not-mounted patitions? And how do I get rid of it? [08:56] I know that in 8.04 it worked with nvidia-glx-new-envy [08:56] but it doesn't seem to work now [08:56] MHz128: start reducing the font sizes, Desktop, right click, Change Desktop Background, Fonts.

[08:58] realtime kernel [08:58] linux-rt [08:58] gartral, giving this a shot right now... [08:58] Hi guys, why when i open gparted does it get stuck scanning for devices? [08:58] trece8: well i dont think rt kernels are supported here :) [08:58] it's for making audio in realtime [08:58] it's in ubuntu repositories, shade [08:58] Darkflare5: running it as root? [08:58] you can install it too: apt-get install linux-rt [08:58] is there any alternative for application like this? http://www.kde-apps.org/content/show.php?content=30223 [08:59] but i assume it be useful almost only if you work with live audio === RJ_ is now known as bauglir [08:59] trece8: no thanks [08:59] !info linux-rt [08:59] linux-rt (source: linux-meta-rt): Complete rt Linux kernel.

[09:00] saivin: this looks better: http://wicd.sourceforge.net/download.php - i hope it will work *G* [09:00] trece8: in the generic kernel its nvidia-glx-180 [09:01] gartral, I don't need to reboot or anything do I? [09:01] shade, i mean if it's the same software [09:01] the same code [09:01] trece8: no idea [09:01] Darkflare5: hehe [09:01] ninotsmindelivar: restart hal, /etc/init.d/hal restart [09:01] ninotsmindelivar: no root priv required [09:02] hmw: thanks will go thru it. [09:02] yea i think that did it shadeslayer, took the floppy outta the fstab umount and then mount and boosh working, thanks for your help [09:02] My scanner (listed as supported) gives noisy images and wrong colors. What can I do? [09:02] edit the colors [09:03] hmw: meanwhile googling with 'wireless not taking ip from dhcp'. seems i'm not alone... :) [09:03] the noise, i don't know, but the colors can be fixed by software [09:03] trece8: you sure, this is a good solution? *g* [09:03] for example, print a color test page [09:03] trece8: i want full quality without booting windows [09:03] then, scan it and then touch the color controls in gimp to make it look exactly the same === colonel is now known as Guest82277 [09:03] save it as a script and that's that [09:03] hi, 9.04 switches on every boot back to gtk-window-decorator, even though i put up emerald in the startup programs! how can i fix this? [09:04] i don't know about the noise, anyway [09:04] trece8: thats not a real solution, because you always loose quality, when shifting colors. I want the error to go away in the first place. And it's slow, too. [09:04] hmw: what scanner is it? [09:04] saivin: I yesterday had problems with DHCP sitting on 10.0.0.138,... with my home router on 192.168.x.x have no problems [09:04] gartral: Bus 001 Device 007: ID 05d8:4002 Ultima Electronics Corp.

[09:04] anyway, are you sure it's not just swapping two color channels? [09:05] like green exchanged for red? Exchanging that won't lose quality [09:05] gartral, just to be sure i'm going to restart [09:05] i'll be right back [09:05] trece8: that might be. In this case one could simply re-swap and NOT have quality reduction. But I doubt it. [09:05] why is nautilus showing in Places one of not-mounted patitions? And how do I get rid of it? could not find any relevant info === Guest82277 is now known as blumm [09:05] ninotsmindelivar: you shouldnt have too [09:05] anyway, the point is the noise [09:05] trece8: in fact, turqouise gets blue [09:05] trece8: red looks ok [09:06] hmw, you are chatting with a colorblind (me), so... i can't help with that much [09:06] anyway, is it more noisy? [09:06] any ideas, why emerald is replaced by gtk-window-decorator on every reboot? [09:06] (scanning a blank page in windows vs ubuntu) [09:06] trece8: the noise is so strong, that I cant use it for work [09:06] which is the scanner model?

[09:09] gartral: yes, usb 2.0 directly connected, no hub [09:09] the noise has a pattern or it is just white noise? Does it get more noise with more resolution? [09:09] hmw: hmm.. try scanning through gimp, with file>Acquire [09:09] (plus, try to do that with only the scanner connected to the usb, no other devices plugged in any usb port) [09:10] gartral: will try [09:10] where ubuntu french ???????????????????????????????????? [09:10] !ubuntu-fr [09:10] hmw... do the noise get "bigger" with more resolution or is just the same no matter the resolution?

Si vous avez besoin d'aide ou voulez discuter en francais, merci de rejoindre #ubuntu-fr [09:11] trece8: i am not certain. I think, its not getting "bigger", looks like a timing problem to me. [09:11] does it have a pattern? (lines) [09:11] gartral: i have no "aquire" in the file menu of Gimp [09:11] hmw: photobin a few of the tests... please [09:12] gartral: i'll do happily, but first i want to get Gimp to scan something *g* [09:12] hmw, one sec, im not able to remember where it is with out opening gimp [09:12] hi, im trying to partition my HDD using the ubuntu 9 live CD, but im not sure what options i need to choose in order to do this anyone know what needs to be typed/selected? [09:12] hmw... in the end i'm thinking that the windows driver probably scans with more resolution and averages the points, plus corrects the color [09:13] helloooo [09:13] ada yang indo gakkkk [09:13] iamskillz, you just want to partition or you want to install too?

[09:19] yes [09:20] so it is not crashed [09:20] iceD: then its not crashed,you just lost X [09:20] iced, what have you installed the last time the X was working [09:20] * trece8 the X is the graphical interface [09:20] !x | iceD [09:20] iceD: The X Window System is the part of your system that's responsible for graphical output.

[09:21] * trece8 plays his guitar [09:22] Hi. [09:22] will reboot to see if it works [09:22] but... i miss nvidia-xconfig :P [09:22] Arv3n: [09:22] hi [09:22] Hello, how do I set xchat 2.8.6 so that people can not get ctcp version information from me ? [09:22] Hello, I installed Apache on Ubuntu 8.10 and it runs terribily slow [09:22] I was just wondering, I downloaded the 4.2G Ubuntu DVD ISO, and am now booted from the Live portion of it. It doesn't seem to include any extra software, so what DOES it include? [09:23] shadeslayer: didnt do any good :( still scrambles the screen [09:23] Anyone has info/link local development server performance tunning? I don't care if it'll leave it unsecure [09:23] Arv3n: it includes extra libraries for extra functions ;) [09:23] daglees: how did you install apache, and what are you doing to suggest it's running slow ? [09:23] Bruners: you did disable framebuffer right? [09:24] shadeslayer: it's a 4.2gb dvd. [09:24] Can i set it so that ctcp replies to people are disabled in xchat 2.8.6 ? [09:24] its' gotta include for than libs. [09:24] *more than [09:24] Arv3n: containing about 3 GB of libs and some other tools and other language installers [09:24] why libs? [09:24] ikonia, sorry I wasn't very specific. I installed the LAMPP package. It runs very slow when I browse a Drupal site, backed by a 1.4GB database [09:24] why not apps? [09:24] ikonia, but the problem is certainly not Drupal [09:25] Can I erase "gnome-dbg"? I want to remove epiphany web browser, and it needs gnome-dbg. Is it safe to remove it? [09:25] Arv3n: for the devels who like to program [09:25] shadeslayer: that means using the kernel framebuffer? the first option i used no [09:25] lol, wow. [09:25] i should've just downloaded the cd. :| [09:25] daglees: what debugging have you done so far ? [09:25] didn't work, shadeslayer [09:25] reinstalled the 180 driver... [09:25] guys im trying to install Elisa From add/remove programs, and i keep getting this error, E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'sudo dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem. [09:25] they should've just put more apps on there. [09:25] E: _cache->open() failed, please report. [09:25] Bruners: yes [09:25] Brando753, run sudo dpkg --configure -a in a terminal [09:25] ikonia, I disabled all logging and modules that contact external servers on Drupal. The same setup on Vista runs very fast [09:25] brand753, then read and do what you are told [09:26] daglees: forget vista - this is a different ball game, you need to know where your current problem is [09:26] arrgh my drivers are all messed up to :P ,nvidia drivers are pathetic specially the 180 ones [09:26] oh, sorry, perhaps you didn't know what was "manually run" [09:26] * shadeslayer goes back to 173 [09:26] daglees: put a index.html in your document root - that is basiclly just a static html page that is hello world - and test apahce on it's own [09:26] shadeslayer: whats wrong with the 180's? [09:26] my firefox browser not open, human theme is not work, what I gonna do? [09:27] gartral... for example, doesn't work with linux-rt [09:27] unlike the ole' nvidia-glx-new-envy :S [09:27] gartral: my irssi gets all scrambled up [09:27] gartral: ill show you [09:28] has anyone else been getting Partial updates every time they log in? [09:28] ikonia, it's still kinda slow [09:28] iced... do you speak spanish? [09:28] trece8 gartral: The scanner makes different noises under windows! 50% done... [09:28] irssi runs ok for me.. shadeslayer [09:28] different noises?? [09:28] :S [09:29] gartral: http://imagebin.org/47534 [09:29] Brando753, I did a couple of times then it is ok now [09:29] daglees: so you've just got a flat html file with hello world - and it's slow [09:29] trece8: the motor is used in another way. Sounds smoother under Win [09:29] hmw... i think it is scanning slower [09:29] trece8: does the CPU control the servo directly?? [09:29] shadeslayer: tried both options now, still the same [09:29] ikonia, yes, specially over the network [09:29] LOL@your question... i don't know that much [09:29] trece8: try [09:29] daglees: that was going to be the next question, how are you accessing this server [09:29] trece8 Bruners do you have the same problem as this http://imagebin.org/47534 [09:30] shadeslayer: i do get to see the ubuntu logo then it crashes [09:30] trece8: and its much faster now... gah [09:30] iced... man... WHAT did you install or change the configuration the last time before it crashed? [09:30] has anyone else been getting Partial updates every time they log in? [09:30] Bruners: did you try to fix from the recovery console? [09:30] iceD, I meant: I talk spanish... it's my first language, that's what i meant [09:30] gartral: see what i mean ?? [09:31] Bruners: *try to fix X from [09:31] i'm speak portuguese; :s [09:31] shadeslayer: im in recovery console [09:31] ikonia, when I last upgraded ubuntu a few days back, it added a tons of new crap on my system that i don't want (example: rhythmbox, epiphany...). How can I avoid it the next time? Some other upgrade form? [09:31] sorry, i don't understand portuguese [09:31] hi [09:31] anyway... WHAT HAVE YOU INSTALLED THE LAST TIME THAT THE PC WORKED RIGHT? [09:31] Bruners: then try the fix X config [09:31] Is it not possible to disable ctcp replies in xchat 2.8.6 ? [09:31] archman: I suspect you just had a package with big dependencies on your box [09:31] trece8: drop the caps please [09:31] !shout | trece8 [09:31] trece8: PLEASE DON'T SHOUT! We can read lowercase too. [09:31] sorry, ikonia, but it was the third time [09:32] spanish? write in spanish . . . [09:32] it was in caps for a reason [09:32] ikonia: in this case the persion could NOT read, shouting was intended... [09:32] qué instalaste la última vez que anduvo bien la PC? [09:32] ikonia, also, do you know if i can erase gnome-dbg, cause epiphany is dependent on it, and i don't want it! [09:32] hmw: that does make it ok [09:32] archman: if it depends on it - you can't remove it, it's not a big package though, what's the problem with keeping it ? [09:32] gartral: ping ping :P [09:32] última vez foi antes do ultimo update [09:32] iced, la sala de portugal es #ubuntu-pt [09:33] shadeslayer: which also means i cant see that image :P [09:33] shadeslayer: internet being wonkey tonight, hold on [09:33] tienes un monitor widescreen, iced? [09:33] shadeslayer: the xorg.conf is reset [09:33] Bruners: ok try starting now [09:33] Can anyone advise me on how to fix incredibly slow internet on jaunty? [09:33] trace8: no [09:33] shadeslayer: i just did and its the same [09:33] dragonminded: get a faster connection [09:33] haa haa [09:34] dragonminded: i cant, but you might want to look into DNS and IPv6 problems [09:34] ever since upgrading to 9.04, speed is garbage [09:34] iced, reseteaste la PC y fuiste a "recovery mode"? (si no lo hiciste, hacelo y luego tocá la opción xfix o algo así) [09:34] for example, im getting 2-3 second pings between this box and my other while downloading a file at 100kbps [09:34] Bruners: hmm since you cant open any links...... [09:34] but when not downloading, 0.1ms pings [09:34] shadeslayer: thats a printout of your desktop, scanned back in? [09:34] * trece8 writes down "speed is garbage" as a catchphrase [09:34] shadeslayer: can open links in links but no images [09:34] trece8: iceD english only please - [09:34] ikonia, hmm...no problems, but epiphany occupies about 20mbs for nothing... [09:34] gartral: haha no thats a screenshot :P [09:34] ikonia, iced is from portugal, i'm trying to help him [09:34] ikonia, so no other ways to upgrade?

[09:40] u have the link [09:40] hmw... which set is which here? [09:40] pawan1234: on their site [09:40] 4850 was released 6 month ago [09:40] its in tar.bz2 format [09:40] can anyone suggest a good music manager/player, that handles podcasts and web streams, other than amarok and rhythmbox? [09:40] gartral: it starts with the ubuntu scans, the better looking ones are from windows [09:40] genii, good news, the backport modules seems to have solved my lockups... at least with the wireless. Ran for 1 hour using youtube, wine playing guild wars on a NTFS partition, while listening to mp3s. :) Thanks for the tip, seems there is indeed a regression bug [09:41] DaveCo: Listen [09:41] LordMetroid: Hmm; they must be recycling model numbers then I guess [09:41] shadeslayer: C-a C-c was what i was looking for :) [09:41] blumm: thanks [09:42] hello [09:42] Bruners: :) [09:42] I run fglrxinfo and and it says for, OpenGL renderer string: software Rasterizer [09:42] how can i check if i installed nvidia corectly?

Compare 300dpi pics and explain the alias effect... i dont understand, how it can go so wrong [09:44] trece8: actually, it's the solution, as it works better than most other 3d cards [09:44] cllaudyu: legacy drivers?? why?? [09:44] hmw... link? [09:44] http://harald.ist.org/home/zeugs/scantest [09:44] danopia: banshee [09:44] gnea... i can't make my nvidia card work with my widescreen screen and linux-rt [09:45] shadeslayer that one freezed my screen [09:45] hmw: the reason im asking is because.. i dont see any distortion... [09:45] shadeslayer i see this one works better [09:45] trece8: maybe you're trying too hard. does it work with non-realtime linux? [09:45] how to reset binding Fn+Z for Ubuntu 8.04? [09:46] cllaudyu: what about the 173 or 177 one [09:46] gartral: the 3 last pics have the right color, it is ought to be green, not blue. Look at the artifacts with the 5cent coin, they are quite obvious [09:46] gnea, i need realtime linux [09:46] that's the whole point [09:46] trece8: that's not what I asked. [09:46] yes, with generic works [09:46] generic kernel [09:46] not with linux-rt [09:46] that's all you had to say :) [09:46] !GRE [09:46] Sorry, I don't know anything about GRE [09:46] what is GRE? [09:47] depends what you're referring to [09:47] the portuguese guy gets "Could not find compatible GRE between version 1.9.0.1 and 1.9.0.*. "when he tries to start firefox :S [09:47] gartral: if you look closely, you can see a change of the blue in the x-axis on the ubuntu scans (in that green diagram) [09:47] he upgraded from 8.04 to 9.04 [09:47] shadeslayer i still get a screen freezing after 10 or 20 minutes... [09:47] hmw: those "artifacts" look like there on BOTH sets.. and, to me, look more like actual finger prints, or smears [09:47] shadeslayer i dont know why??? [09:47] hmw, i have to say this: [09:47] gartral: youre using an LCD, right? [09:48] I don't know about the colors [09:48] cllaudyu: hmm no idea,im off to lunch anyway [09:48] but the "noise" you see is not actually noise [09:48] trece8: no idea. what's the max res your monitor goes to and how far will the linux-rt take it? [09:48] it's not-lossy-compression [09:48] shadeslayer bye [09:48] !enter [09:48] Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation! [09:48] if you compress as a low quality jpg the upperside of the image, it will be just as the "windows" scan [09:48] hmw: nvidia XFX 6200 AGP card, running DVI link, 180 drivers [09:48] trece8: as stated, the noise seems only to be in the preview window, not in the actual jpegs. This problem is "solved" therefore [09:48] gnea, 1680x1050 [09:48] hmw, it's not noise! [09:49] the windows driver blurs the image! [09:49] trece8: what's the max res the linux-rt will allow? [09:49] gartral: if youre not using a CRT but a LCD, you might not see the colors correctly [09:49] so you don't see it [09:49] gnea, linux-rt won't work with the nvidia 180 driver [09:49] that's the problem [09:49] yea, i omitted mt LCD because i hit enter, not shift for nam [09:49] trece8: again, what's the max res that linux-rt will *allow*, regardless of which driver it's using? [09:50] 1024x768 [09:50] o.O [09:50] and you're on 9.04? [09:50] gartral trece8: i talked to a friend meanwhile. I think, the problem is likely not to be solved at all, because it does work basically. [09:50] hey, do you know about the GRE? (i'm trying to help the portuguese guy "show this message: Could not find compatible GRE between version 1.9.0.1 and 1.9.0.*.") [09:50] gnea, i am [09:51] i had problems to do the same thing in 8.04 [09:51] but it worked using nvidia-glx-new-envy [09:51] trece8: try googling the GRE problem [09:51] hrm [09:51] Hello, I recently installed UNR on my netbook, it worked fine, but after a reboot, the wireless lists no networks anymore and does not connect? [09:51] I'm having a problem with gnome therminal in ubuntu 8.10: sometimes (but not always), the window fails to update when I scroll. Clicking the window causes it to update, though. I see it most often in a window where I use screen, but also occationally elsewhere. Is this a known bug? [09:51] guys im curious - people running laptops on jaunty - please tell me does pressing FN+arrows and holding (volume/brightness control) the autorepeat is slow? with me it is very slow. curious before i log the bug... [09:52] hmw... i have a LCD [09:52] the colors... i see difference, perhaps its luma channel or such. [09:52] RaverWild yes ot os s;pw [09:52] it is slow* [09:52] trece8: is there a specific error message from the kernel or Xorg when the nvidia driver is attempted to be engaged? [09:52] I really believe the loss in color quality is very very very little [09:52] gnea, oh yeah [09:52] Hello, I recently installed UNR on my netbook, it worked fine, but after a reboot, the wireless lists no networks anymore and does not connect manually? [09:52] i tried to paste it... but it is before the login, so i can't paste it [09:52] mib_87pcnqr5, thanks. will see if someone else reported this and will probably report it [09:53] where is the log? (Singed as black eyed peas) [09:53] hmw: only suggestion i have, is a headache, and download the xsane source, make the changes you want yourself, and compile your own [09:53] hmw... REALLY... it's not a problem. Try my solution [09:53] mib_87pcnqr5, man i had same problem. will see the solution now. i solved it it is because the wifi driver [09:53] don't break your head: Use gimp to even the colors [09:53] gartral: yeah *g* if I would be that good, I am not yet expirienced with programming under linux [09:53] the "distortion" is not really a distortion but a not-compressed image [09:53] long story short, i need to disable my internal wifi adapter temporarily to tether my mobile phones internet connection on a usb dongle, does anyone know how i can do that in 9.04? [09:53] RaverWild What? I just did a vanilla install and it did this, how did you fix it? [09:53] Hey, since I have upgraded from 8.10 to 9.04 I can't mute my sound ,just turn the volume down, and even if I do that my subwoofer won't be muted. Also I have more cracking [09:53] you see... the linux image has more detail than the windows one... so it can't be a distortion! [09:54] mib_87pcnqr5, what laptop you have? [09:54] trece8: the output of the dmesg command and /var/log/Xorg.0.log (please use the pastebin) [09:54] RaverWild Acer Aspire One [09:54] any ideas, why emerald is replaced by gtk-window-decorator on every reboot? [09:54] RaverWild the FN left/right is easy to get round by tapping the arrows intead of holding them btw [09:54] mib_87pcnqr5, i am on aspire one aswell [09:54] trece8: that's a contradiction of terms - the more detail involved can often times lead to a finer-tuned degree of distortion! ;) [09:54] mib_87pcnqr5, hold on.... [09:55] !pasetbin | trece8 [09:55] Sorry, I don't know anything about pasetbin [09:55] \... [09:55] RaverWild what drivers do I need then [09:55] !pastebin | trece8 [09:55] trece8: pastebin is a service to post multiple-lined texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu.com (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the channel topic) [09:55] shadeslayer: and we are live \o/ [09:55] trece8: the worst problem is the fluctuation in the color on the x-axis, which prevents me from using your solution [09:56] How can i check my syslog? [09:56] Ziw: look at the /var/log/syslog file [09:56] Erm help, ubuntu is starting to ignore when I press enter ect. in google and things like that? [09:56] mib_87pcnqr5, read this and follow the instructions. this is how i fixed it. http://www.ubuntugeek.com/new-madwifi-now-supports-ar2425-in-madwifi-trunk-branch.html [09:56] Gnea: thanks [09:57] How can I make my ubuntu partition bigger inside ubuntu? [09:57] hmw... fluctuation? [09:57] or just a drift? [09:57] you can compensate color drifts with gimp! [09:57] mib_87pcnqr5: you cant [09:57] hello, is there an IPsec client for ubuntu, eventually one which works with nm-applett? [09:57] trece8: yeah... the color changes slightly 2 times on the whole x-axis from more green to a little less green [09:58] Hi, somebody knows any reason why a couple of aplications won't open when I click them in the menu? they only open through terminal. [09:58] Goldiadkin, which apps? [09:58] trece8: it might help to install the pastebinit package to get the output to the site quicker [09:58] mib_87pcnqr5, What is ect supposed to do? [09:58] hmw: you know, you get jagged edges on the windows one as well [09:59] gnea... here it is http://paste.ubuntu.com/162663/ [09:59] the dmesg is the upper part [09:59] if i'm on intrepid, can i safely add the repos for later distros to my aptitude sources? [09:59] gnea... i HOPE i don't have to use it much :P [09:59] trece8: just don't go overboard and you'll be fine ;) [10:00] i want python2.6 and intrepid doesnt seem to have it [10:00] maodun: better not, because these might have dependencies for apps or libs for the next version [10:00] cperrin88: ah, thanks [10:00] i just want to jam with my guitar through the internets with ubuntu :( [10:00] Hardinfo, Tucan, a game or two... === blumagic is now known as blu2 [10:00] does someone know if there is any progress in the intel graphics driver?

[10:01] the latest rt, gnea [10:01] trece8: wine doesnt work, and my current VirtualBox is OSE, so no USB. I expect it to work in the virtual box, which will be my next step.

PM me please. [10:02] Hey, since I have upgraded from 8.10 to 9.04 I can't mute my sound ,just turn the volume down, and even if I do that my subwoofer won't be muted. I also have more cracking. [10:02] cperrin...what soundcard do you have? [10:03] onboard or something "better" than that? [10:03] how on earth do i open a termial from within file browser, it wont let me CD to somewhere [10:03] mib, i don't think you can [10:03] trece8: better is relative but it's not onboard, but it worked fine in 8.10 [10:03] cperrin... but what soundcard is it? [10:03] CMI8738 [10:04] nothing fancy [10:04] https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/108795 [10:04] read that [10:05] gnea... some idea? [10:05] anything?

[10:08] hmw, AAAAAAAAH... i know, it's not noise, is aliasing [10:08] don't worry [10:08] hmw... try to fix the overall color with gimp [10:08] and present the results [10:08] the color problem still exists [10:09] gnea, i'll read [10:09] trece8: I'm not sure what else to recommend at this time... there's a lot of possibilities up there, so it'll just be a matter of finding the right one, if it's up there - and if not, well maybe following up on the bug report might help as well :) [10:09] hmw, have you tried to make it better? [10:09] there are 2 greenish stripes in the linux scan, you wont see if youre color blind [10:09] gnea, thanks for the links [10:09] adnc_: yep. do you have some website where you check on the info about it ? [10:09] trece8: good luck [10:09] lol, hmw, totally agreed! "Two greenish lines" [10:10] floating: no, actually not, there is a page on the ubuntu wiki but that doesnt tell much. i've a intel 965 which was working with interepid very well but bad with jaunty [10:10] gnea, by the way [10:10] could i install nvidia-glx-new-envy in jaunty? [10:10] bye folx, thanks for your time [10:10] that could be a way to make it work... [10:10] it worked with that on 8.04 [10:10] hmw frankly, the only discrepency i see is sharpness [10:11] and aliases [10:11] ok. i have intel845G, and 9.04 works terrible. I tried few tricks that someone showed me, but they didnt work. I have not run linux on this earlier, so im not sure if 8 would work.

Ubuntu is much easier to use [11:32] ActionParsnip: hey there [11:32] Madpeter: i actually run 9.04 right now, but ive had a lot of problems with it.. with sound, speed etc and i read somewhere that a clean install fixed at least the sound [11:32] ripps: oh. so if I come from Windows, should I use Ubuntu? [11:32] werd [11:32] aM^Vadder: well I'm able to connect to the internet, or is that a separate interface?

[11:32] Trashlord, yes [11:32] Rungen = Kungen :P [11:32] BlackIdentity: don't use VMWare. it's nonfree software. TRy QEmu/KVM or VirtualBox instead.

Or ... quake? [11:35] coolguy4: do you have firewall setup? [11:35] how to bypass login password in ubuntu, i can't remember my password [11:35] ./join support for OSS [11:35] How do I get the source code of my current kernel (with the ubuntu patches applied)? [11:35] Trashlord: learning to use the linux commandline can be very rewarding, linux's is so sophisticated you'll find you can do things and solve more problems using the command line than you ever could using a graphical interface [11:35] aM^Vadder: I think there's only iptables, what else might there be? I don't have any rules in iptables. I tried adding a rule to allow everything but that didn't help [11:35] any ideas, why emerald is replaced by gtk-window-decorator on every reboot? [11:36] ubuntu616: you could remove pass from recovery terminal [11:36] Comparing DOS to the Linux command line is like.. comparing a Model T, to a Dragracer... [11:36] alright, I will give it a shot, thanks guys :) [11:36] Boohbah: there are some private and public ports in the map fields ... what public port should I give? [11:36] ubuntu616, restart the pc and go to recovery mode, enter as root and put passwd user passwordnew [11:36] blumm: you could install/use 'fusion-icon' to set what one to use. thats what i tend to do. [11:36] Trashlord, anyway, trust me on this: command line isn't needed for most mortals now [11:37] blumm: theres a setting in the ccsm tool to set what one to run by default. [11:37] Dr_Willis: i did, and on every reboot i have to start it and choose compiz again [11:37] so what do you call us?? [11:37] blumm: i set it to auto-start :) [11:37] Dr_Willis: emerald --replace, right? [11:37] it's dawn and i didn't sleep [11:37] blumm: that does not set the 'default' in ccsm. i recall.. [11:37] i can't login [11:37] coolguy4: i'm also new to unix, and not very good in network. I leave the question to others :) [11:37] blumm: either i launch fusion-icon at login, and it checks/sets it. or edit it in ccsm [11:38] Dr_Willis: i even set up a start program to replace gtk by emerald on boot [11:38] i just installed DontZap and disabled it but ctrl+alt+backspace still doesn't do anything, can anyone help?

[11:40] are there any other support channels? [11:40] ripps: okay thanks, do I have to reboot first? [11:40] Madpeter: many [11:40] Madpeter, list the channels [11:41] try : /list [11:41] hmm, I did ifdown lo and the response was 'ifdown: interface lo not configured' [11:41] Dr_Willis: go grab some online, is there not a package in the repo with some in? [11:41] Madpeter: /join #freenode to learn more [11:41] Hi, i just upgraded my laptop to jaunty and now i have a problem, the display is weird, there are two strips of the screen that are not being used, -- if that makes sense -- anyone got any thoughts? [11:41] hi i just installed jaunty and firefox doesnt work [11:41] ActionParsnip: if theres is - i cant find any such package. [11:41] anybody knows why? [11:41] Bodsda: it's in letterbox format? is this on a laptop? [11:41] ActionParsnip: i made a few basic ones - but i dident see any in synaptic [11:41] stephane_, does firefox start? [11:41] no it doesnt [11:41] What would cause awstats to not see my access.log file even though it exists? [11:41] stefane: why? explain [11:41] !compiz [11:41] Compiz (compositing window manager), for a howto see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompositeManager and more help #compiz-fusion [11:41] Dr_Willis: hmm, weird. [11:41] it doesn't even open a window? [11:41] stephane_: start it in a terminal [11:42] ActionParsnip: yea - seemed to be an oversight somewhere [11:42] it does nothing [11:42] Bodsda: or more likely, it's a widescreen laptop and the resolution in use isn't widescsreen [11:42] ok, start it in a terminal as shadeslayer said [11:42] thank u so much the pidgin crush solved :) [11:42] cjb_ie, yes this is on a laptop - im unsure what you mean by letterbox but the srips are on the outside (left and right) [11:42] szonek: you are aware that any program running on your webserver will be able to change your iptables? is that a good idea? [11:42] hey, how to i switch to desktops with keyboard hotkeys from a program running on ubuntu? [11:42] shadeslayer, where is the terminal in the applications menu? [11:42] Is it possible to deinstall the JW FLV Media Player? This plugin is too slow for playing videos [11:42] kryle, ctrl-alt-left and ctrl-alt-right [11:42] trece8: yes or alt-F2 then gnome-terminal [11:42] try them [11:43] Bodsda: okay, sounds like a resolution issue. https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Config/Resolution [11:43] hi [11:43] how do i install ubuntu from a hard drive? [11:43] thank you [11:43] Boohbah: there will be only one program on my webserver.. but maybe you have better idea how to do this? [11:43] it's US$ 5, kryle [11:43] your welcome [11:43] Kungen354646: I have tried it but couldn't do [11:43] hello, my NetworkManager always ask me for my authorization to connect when I bootup. Where do I go to tell it to remember? [11:44] Kungen354646, I would use a usbdisk if possible netbootin [11:44] mudassar: how far did u get? [11:44] szonek: only change iptables rules as root [11:44] Kungen354646, can't you burn a CD/DVD? No burner? [11:44] Yanick_: it saves your passwords in gnome-keyring. Check if it's up and running. There is a gnome-keyring widget buried somewhere in the menus. [11:44] muelli: I'll take a look [11:45] OK! I found the solution, there was no entry for lo in /etc/network/interfaces. I added two lines: auto lo /iface lo inet loopback . Then I reset the interface and now it works [11:45] trece8: no cd and i cant boot from usb :( [11:45] grats coolguy4 [11:45] kungen, sorry then. [11:45] . [11:45] Boohbah: okay.. but i'm writing a PHP script to add and delete rules.. so is there any other (and better) way to do this? [11:45] muelli: : there is a "Password and Encryption settings" but the wireless is not in there [11:46] how would a netinstall work? [11:46] Don't you have any USB ports or any other drive? [11:46] Kungen354646: you can try to make the "CD" boot from harddrive. Basically extracting the CD to your harddrive and boot it. [11:46] cjb_ie, thanks for the link, but the link only talks about resolutions, which in fact sem to be working ok for me, but i think you were on the right track with the widescreen, how can i tell it o be widescreen? [11:46] szonek: from a root shell [11:46] muelli: yea.. thats what i had in mind [11:46] linux is suck!! [11:47] mustafa: mustafa is suck!! [11:47] Yanick_: hm. I guess it's the wrong widgets. There is "Edit my saved passwords" (or something like that) widget which accesses gnome-keyring. You can see all saved information there. [11:47] !ot | mustafa [11:47] mustafa: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics. Thanks! [11:47] Boohbah: from a root shell? how exactly? [11:47] how do i set a kernel option, CONFIG_TMPFS, on? [11:47] muelli: apparently you can change something in grub.lst to make it work, but im not sure what to change [11:47] szonek: with the iptables command... [11:48] trece8: thats not a real time paramter, it's a compile time parameter [11:48] Kungen354646: I have no clue how to do it right though :-/ You might want to try those CD-to-USB converter and force it to write to your HDD. Of course, you'll destroy your data, so think at least twice before you try anything at home ;-) [11:48] ok, ikonia... so... mmm... how do i compile it that way? [11:48] is it difficult? [11:48] muelli: I think I have found it, it's in Application > Accessories [11:48] szonek: http://iptables-tutorial.frozentux.net/iptables-tutorial.html [11:48] trece8: it's a complex procedure if you're not sure what your doing. What are you trying to achieve in the long run [11:48] Boohbah: i don't understand what you mean, i'm running shell command with my php script [11:49] What would cause awstats to not see my access.log file even though it exists? [11:49] ive already done that on my usb-stick so maybe i can just move the files? [11:49] realtime operation [11:49] using the tmpfs for audio swap [11:49] muelli: thanks for your help. I'll know if it works the next time I boot [11:49] muelli: ive already done that on my usb-stick so maybe i can just move the files? [11:49] well Yanick_. Is your wireless in there? :) [11:49] trece8: does the real time kernel not have that built in, I thought tmpfs was already built in ? [11:49] anyway, the answer is "it's difficult", so thanks [11:49] muelli: yep [11:49] hmm, i just installed mythbuntu to my laptop, but the screen is dim'd? [11:49] Howdy folxxx.. I have Ubuntu 8.04 on my machine, went to grab the updates (there were 25).. it looked like it hung while trying to finish installing the updates so I had to power it off. When I turned it back on, it crashes on the GRUB, giving any of about half a dozen errors at GRUB 1.5, usually errors 15 and 18. It's been suggested I reinstall GRUB.. how? [11:49] szonek: yes, i personally wouldn't do that, but you can do what you like :) [11:49] ikonia, how do i check it? [11:49] trece8: one second, I'll have a look [11:49] Kungen354646: you can try. [11:50] trece8: tmpfs is built in [11:50] ok, cool [11:50] how did you check? [11:50] trece8: looked in the kernel config [11:50] hi , i'm having a problem with my mplayer [11:50] and smplayer [11:50] can someone help ? [11:50] yadu_: wassup, be as detailed aspossible [11:50] Boohbah: i have to do this, i'm creating linux based router with web interface as my master thesis.. [11:50] !ask | yadu_ [11:50] yadu_: 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. :-) [11:51] buenos días a todos [11:51] szonek: oh i see [11:51] ok, ikonia [11:51] jaunty keeps crashing for me when I try to connect to a wireless network. [11:51] Kungen354646, Have you got a usb stick about 1 gig in size and a spare usb port? [11:52] otm24: whole ubuntu or just some app? How do you notice it crashes? [11:52] Alquimista_OFF, para preguntas en español dirigite a #ubuntu-es [11:52] well... I copied vidz from /tmp after watching them in youtube... but it seems that all my players besides mplayer refuse to play it. And mplayer shows very low [11:52] Mechdave: i cant install from usb :( [11:52] video quality [11:52] Mechdave: rather.. i cant boot from usb [11:52] muelli: the whole of ubuntu, and the mouse and keyboard freeze, as does everything on the screen [11:53] otm24: does it crash if you try with different security settings [11:53] trece8: thx [11:53] actually i watched MI3 again yesterday and all the colours stand separate.....looks ugly in mplayer [11:53] yadu_, youtube videos have very low video quality. Are you sure you are watching that videos in the same size as you were watching them in youtube? [11:53] Kungen354646, Have you got a 3.5" floppy drive? [11:53] otm24: does your keyboard LEDs blink? [11:53] s/does/do/ [11:53] good afternoon2all [11:53] Mechdave: no.. [11:53] trece8: I only need the hispano servers for irc [11:53] i found it now, thx [11:53] Kungen354646, what kind of removable media do you have? [11:53] muelli: I havent checked [11:53] yadu_: tried youtube-dl to download it in a more graceful way [11:53] no problem, no digo más porque se quejan acá que no se habla en inglés jajaja [11:54] trece8, yes ....mplayer plays the vids from /tmp well...no probs....but the other players vlc,KMplayer,SM, all refuse to play it [11:54] otm24: then do. If they blink, the kernel has panicked. If they don't, some other thing must have happened. [11:54] well... and what's wrong with mplayer? [11:54] ActionParsnip, well i used to use utube ripper [11:54] trece8, movies really look ugly in mplayer [11:54] Kungen354646, Why is it you can't boot from usb? Usually you can configure the BIOS to boot from usb now days [11:54] muelli: It was happening 2/3 times on my previous Jaunty install, and I had my first crash a few minutes ago [11:54] Mechdave: none that i can boot from... but i guess ill have to go to my apartment and get my external dvd-drive [11:54] i think avi format [11:54] all: update-manager -d do not notify presence of jaunty...hao can i fex it? [11:54] are you sure the movies look uglier in mplayer than in the youtube player? [11:54] otm24: in every case open a terminal, tail -f /var/log/{messages,syslog} and try to make it crash. See if anything was written to the log. [11:54] s/fex/fix [11:54] muelli: *2/3 boots [11:54] Mechdave: yea, but this computer is from 2004 [11:54] if it is that way, it'd be really odd [11:55] Kungen354646, Lol, you are hard core!! [11:55] Kungen354646, what are you looking at installing? [11:55] trece8, no i meant the real movies .... not from youtube..sorry for not being clear [11:55] otm24: maybe the driver for your wireless is broken. I know that acx100 is broken since.. well, since ever... [11:55] Mechdave: im more hardcore than u think :P [11:55] oh, ok [11:55] I don't know, then [11:56] Mechdave: just a clean install of 9.04 [11:56] Kungen354646, Have you got a http server on your internal network? [11:56] muelli: it worked flawlessly with 8.10 [11:57] im in school right now so i dont controll the network.. however, i do have wifi and wired connection [11:57] trece8, anyways mplayer looks very bad ....and i gotta fix it....any possible fix ? [11:57] Mechdave: im in school right now so i dont controll the network.. however, i do have wifi and wired connection [11:58] yadu_: is utube ripper a native linux app? [11:58] don't know, yadu_ [11:58] Kungen354646, I reckon it would be easier to go and get your cd rom drive [11:58] ping laucian [11:58] ActionParsnip, no.... its not there in the repos....i got it off the net....dont remember from where [11:58] ping laucian [11:59] ActionParsnip, any way to fix my mplayer n sm ?? [11:59] ActionParsnip, it looks bad....... [11:59] ping laucian [11:59] maybe i can do a network boot? [11:59] Someone know how fix "update-manager -d" in intrepid? Do not notify presence of jaunty [12:00] yadu_: it probably a config option in smplayer, play around in the preferences menu [12:00] exones, try with a slash first [12:00] Mechdave: yea.. i guess.. but its an hour awaaaaay xD [12:00] will installing all the codecs all over again help ? [12:00] since I can't create a username/pass for a live usb, is there a way to "install" a copy of ubuntu onto a usb drive? [12:00] hi, i have install kde over ubuntu, then i deleted kde..now i see the kubuntu loading screen on startup..how can i make ubuntu start using gnome again?

Insert substitute kdm with gdm, then restart X.

It looks like a widescren tv not using widescreen mode [12:06] it's a non-pretty solution, but it's simple and i assume it works [12:06] so kids, I'm trying to use Transmission's web interface, but I'm discovering that I can't control which files are downloaded from the torrent, and also there are some issues with some of the dialogs being cut-off, possible because I'm using it on a netbook, can anyone enlighten me if there is some solution to this? [12:06] jjibn, thing is I used to use photoshop all the time untill I figure out that all I needed was to learn gim basics [12:06] worx good for me [12:06] fc, i have this line, /opt/kde3/bin/kdm....what should i write for gnome ?

[12:07] fc, thanks i will try now... [12:07] jjibn, I truly don't understand you coming into an OPEN SOURCE channel and asking where you can illegally download photoshop..... [12:07] exones: try this sudo dpkg-reconfigure gdm [12:08] shadeslayer: which? [12:08] its much easier [12:08] fc: sudo dpkg-reconfigure gdm [12:08] hello [12:08] * Dr_Willis dont need Photoshop.. ive been watching GIMP training tutorial videos. :) [12:08] I need something similar to auditing, but with my own scripts. And therefore I need a hook, there I can hook into to start a script on logoff of any user. [12:08] Mechdave: yea, thats the one.. so i thougt maybe i can update my bios to be able to boot from usb, since it actually even hac usb 2.0 :) but then i need to know what mb it has [12:08] shadeslayer: i love cli & edit file :) [12:08] Kungen354646, does it matter? lshw etc. will get you all the gritty details.

GRUB at 1.5 comes up with mostly 15 and 18, occasionally others as well. [12:12] Kungen354646, ya, I don't think most mobos have identifying eeproms, what info _do_ you need? [12:12] in /etc/passwd file, we can set * or ! as a password to disable user login. Is there a difference between them? does setting password to * also means setting passwords to ! ?

[12:19] ActionParsnip: its a jvc interlink mp-xp741 [12:19] Night_Owl, boot into live disk, chroot to your hard drive root partition and then re run the upgrade manager. That may work [12:19] julian__ - Shell script? [12:19] exones: you want to change bootsplash or remove the bootsplahs?

[12:19] ActionParsnip, or a ASUS S200N [12:20] in /etc/passwd file, we can set * or ! as a password to disable user login.

[12:20] Well I'm booted into the live CD already on that machine [12:20] fc, i want to use standart screen from gnome [12:20] !fstab [12:20] The /etc/fstab file indicates how drive partitions are to be used or otherwise integrated into the file system. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Fstab and http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/fstab.html and !Partitions [12:20] Mechdave: But I have no clue how to do the rest of what you just said :/ [12:20] KEBA: as a test just try cating them together? cat foo.mp3 bar.mp3 > BIG.mp3 ? [12:21] Night_Owl, ok. open a terminal and type without the quotes "sudo chroot /dev/sda1" [12:21] anyone knows anything about /etc/passwd file ? [12:21] Dr_Willis: yep, but than ive the problem that there are the id3-tags somewhere in the BIG.mp3, thats ugly i think [12:21] Night_Owl, that should then transfer the system to hard drive, then just type "sudo update-manager [12:22] " [12:22] exones: aptitude install usplash [12:22] Mechdave: chroot: cannot change root directory to /dev/sda1: Not a directory. [12:22] It hasn't been able to mount the drive. [12:22] KEBA: what do that tags matter? you said you dident care about the tags.. [12:23] Mechdave: if you are trying to launch a GUI application it is better to use gksudo [12:23] Night_Owl, can you pastebin the result of the following command --> fdisk -l [12:23] Dr_Willis: i think i will get problems while reading this mp3 file with a mp3-player, but ill test this [12:23] Fillado, thx, I get caught up in the old school too much :) [12:23] who knows if a notepad version for linux exists? [12:23] KEBA: thats what i suggest.. :) [12:24] Mechdave: fdisk -l comes up "" [12:24] siropio: huh? theres dozens of text editors out for linux.

[12:24] siropio: and most all make notepad.exe look like the..err.. poo it is. :P [12:24] Night_Owl, Oops sorry, try fdisk -l /dev/sda [12:24] Night_Owl: use sudo fdisk -l [12:24] I changed the user that httpd runs in the httpd.conf config file , then when I run the ps aux command there are 5 httpd pids , 4 for the user that I just changed but 1 root still is there ! , is that normal , the httpd.conf file says for me open httpd as root and he will change automatically the user [12:24] i wonder if geany supports TCL language!! [12:24] Night_Owl, Oops sorry, try sudo fdisk -l /dev/sda [12:25] Mechdave: sda or sda1? [12:25] fdisk -l /dev/sda [12:25] kk [12:25] NOT sda1 :) [12:25] Night_Owl, we are trying to see what is on the hard drive in the way of partitions so it will be /dev/sda [12:25] siropio: gedit supports colour coding of Tcl [12:25] -l on 'sda1' will give.. confuseing output [12:25] hi.. Anyone know how to enable keyboard in vbox??

[12:29] arif [12:30] hemer: no, i meant compiz as your window manager like cube desktop style [12:30] Houba1986: what video card? and you have installed the proper drivers for that card?

I've got an Option HSDPA Globesurfer 3G modem and Ubuntu seems to find it, but I can't get it running. Anyone in here who could help me? [12:31] the issue with nvidia 6200 and linux-rt is that you have to stop gdm ( sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop ) when you have the nvidia 180 driver uninstalled (so you have to uninstall it and reset before this), and then install (with envyng -t , for example) the new driver [12:31] Dr_Willis: it's the one that came built into my laptop, i think its an intel gma 915 or 945, something like that :S [12:31] Mechdave: http://paste.ubuntu.com/162766 .. Mount error when i tried running the first command. [12:31] Houba1986: some laptops i have. i have to hit the special keys to enable the tv out.. some dont.. [12:31] i need a help. i can't enable desktop effect... [12:32] Night_Owl, made some progress? I had made some... breakfast, and progress, solved my issue :) [12:32] lol [12:32] linux_viewer, install the latest drivers [12:32] Dr_Willis: yes, mine has that, and tv out works and everything, but the mirror screen option never works, i dunno why [12:32] but the keyboard doesn't work so how can you write? [12:32] what is the best speech recognition software for ubuntu ? [12:33] good question! Don't know [12:33] trece8: Mechdave's helping; I'd rather not do another install of Linux if I don't have to.. although the other option maybe is try a reinstall overtop of the original? [12:33] have you googled that? [12:33] no, Night_Owl , mine is simpler [12:33] install it in some unused part of a partition [12:33] Um [12:33] the whole point is making the new grub realise there is some other OS and put that in the grub [12:33] I'm not sure I have one [12:34] oh wait [12:34] you didn't have any spare space? [12:34] You said unused part [12:34] you can repartition [12:34] claptrap, i heard dragon naturally speaking is a very good one [12:34] i have a problem on ubuntu 9.04... i dont have a graphic card installed and after i try to install one the hole system freezes and i nedd to restart it manualy... [12:34] Night_Owl, when you installed to startwih did you use ext3 or ext4 filesystem? [12:34] Houba1986, thanks ill have a look [12:34] anyway, my idea is this: install it in unused space. Then, the GRUB will recognize the Ubuntu you had before and put it in GRUB [12:35] afterwards, you remove the newly installed ubuntu [12:35] Dr_Willis, so is there a way to get the mirror screens option to work? [12:35] Mech: To be honest, I don't remember. I think I just let it use whatever defaults they were. [12:35] is like using a needle to get another needle out [12:35] heh [12:35] i have a problem on ubuntu 9.04... i dont have a graphic card installed and after i try to install one the hole system freezes and i need to restart it manualy... [12:35] trece8, That is a bit of a heavy handed approach for me, I would prefer to maybe re install grub, or even solve the problem that caused this :) [12:36] All of my filesystem windows (nautilus) just crashed without a message. How do I find out why so I can report it? [12:36] Mechdave, but that could work, couldn't it? Maybe too "stupid" .. .but... i assume it works [12:36] cllaudyu: without a graphics card your system wont even POST [12:36] it's not elegant, but who cares? [12:36] cllaudyu, take notes: [12:36] Houba1986: check the forums for tat specific chipset. Ive not tried tv out with intel [12:37] trece8, It will work as far as the grub on the new system would see the other system but once you removed it you possibly would be back where you started :( [12:37] cllaudyu: you will need to run dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg in recovery console to revert to failsafe video settings [12:37] Mechdave, I don't think so [12:37] you can remove it from the other ubuntu [12:37] the "original" [12:37] just remove the partitions and the grub entries [12:38] getting some really low level problems with ubuntu, GCC compilation memory error, gui having breaf lock up when gcc is running. kernal panics. looks like ubuntu cant manage memory properly [12:38] recon69: sounds more like a hardware issue to me. [12:38] recon69, run a memtest86 [12:38] pick the ubuntu live cd and do a memtest86 [12:39] trece8, I have never tried it myself, I have always just mounted the boot partition to make sure it is ok and then booted from live disk and chrooted to the other system and then re installed grub [12:39] i dont like qemo [12:39] Grub is the kind of tool - thats worth learning - and learning very well. [12:39] I'll run a mem test again, last one did not show any problems but that was a while ago. [12:39] i didn't try either, Mechdave, but it can work... and if it works, that's all that matters [12:39] recon69: you are not 'overclocking' at all are you? [12:39] ei! [12:40] good question, Dr_Willis ! [12:40] Overclocking = bad idea now a days. :P [12:40] arturo, /join #ubuntu-es para español [12:40] trece8, true, but check this, it is strange --> http://paste.ubuntu.com/162766/ [12:40] overclocking: selling bad unstable computers as gaming ones [12:41] trece8, see the /dev/sda1 entry, see the number of blocks?

[12:42] Night_Owl, trece8 Oh ok [12:42] Mechdave: The door, people are strange, good song actually [12:42] marlock, what is EXA? [12:42] nautilus is showing one of the not-mounted partitions in the Places. How do I remove it? [12:42] *doors [12:43] Night_Owl, I think we need to do a fsck on dev/sda before any more [12:43] how can I change the source of where I download my updates from? it seems to be going really slow. I think it is because I am in China and downloading from a US repository. Is there a way to automatically find the fastest repository? [12:43] trece8, EXA is the graphic acceleration method in xorg.conf [12:43] I do not believe I have ever heard it myself [12:43] vart: open your computer and take it out? [12:43] azlon: Click System>Admin>Software Sources [12:43] Mechdave: Seriously? Awesome song. Look it up on songza.com sometime. [12:44] Night_Owl, will do [12:44] recon69: partition, not disk - I do not want to see it in the sidebar of nautilus [12:44] trece8, UXA is too much instable for using it. Anyway i can't use my pc for more than 2 hours because xorg uses all the ram [12:44] azlon: Click the "Download from" button and choose "Other" [12:44] Mechdave: Meantime.. what am I doing for fsck? Just sudo fsck /dev/sda ? [12:45] trece8, Xorg increase its ram progressively [12:45] I don't know the commands but I'm not afraid of using a CLI :) [12:45] azlon: A new window will pop up with a button "Select Best Server" [12:45] Night_Owl, sudo fsck -r /dev/sda1 [12:45] awesome [12:45] got it, thanks!

[12:55] SiDi: what is the diference between VirtualBox and VMWare? my processor is a Q8200 from intel and as far as i understand, VirtualBox needs the VT-?? support in the intel processors wich mine does not have [12:55] the audio driver chosen is ALSA but no sound is tested. Plus when i choose a new application i go to Winblows drive and choose winamp.exe it hangs [12:56] I don't see my bluetooth adapter when I do lspci -vnn... how can I install it? [12:56] how to play Winamp for example [12:56] ? [12:56] Mechdave: Yeah, I probably will have to too.. although being I have more than one machine to operate with.. I'm typing on my laptop atm, running the commands with the Ubuntu drive plugged into what's normally my XP machine, with the actual bot box (where the hard drive came from) behind me. I want a larger hard drive for my XP machine anyways so one of those will probably get migrated to the bot. [12:56] vart, hmm...i need to try to install something to try this :D [12:56] OK I SHALL TRY WITHOUT ENTER. 1sek [12:57] lazermann: maybe better to find some linux alternative to winamp that supports winamp skins? [12:57] vart, ACTUALLY, that "details" arrow is what i talked about, it uses gnome-terminal, no? [12:57] lrojas: it doesnt "need" it, it supports it. [12:57] Well I have qmmp and it sucks. I used to like xmms, but can't find nothing but xmms2 which sucks greatly [12:57] archman: I really do not know... [12:57] lrojas: virtualbox is free and opensource software from sun. I use it here and i'm very happy with it, really easy to setup [12:58] What other payer do you mean? [12:58] lazermann: you need to _reinstall_ the apps under wine [12:58] ok [12:58] like setup.exe? [12:58] lazermann: about linux audio players, lets quote rhythmbox / banshee / exaile / amarok, they all rock [12:58] lazermann: yes. [12:58] SiDi: and installation is as easy as sudo apt-get install virtualbox ? ( i am on ubuntu 64bits ( AMD64? ) [12:58] lazermann: you can compile xmms on ubuntu if you really really want xmms [12:59] lrojas: yes, they are in the repository ;) and they have a PPA with the latest version too [12:59] !virtualbox | lrojas [12:59] lrojas: virtualbox is a x86 !virtualizer.

[12:59] Hi everyone!!! [12:59] hi! [12:59] lazermann: you can open the Synaptic and write winamp in the search box - there are a lot [12:59] got to go... [12:59] lazermann: of course not since winamp skins are for winamp :) [13:00] I thought bmpx had support for winamp skins. (if you want ugly winamp skins) [13:00] lazermann: i used to use winamp, from ~2.93 to 5.5, and i do am very happy with exaile under linux. [13:00] <[4-tea-2]> Howdy.

If you need help on how to do something with virtualbox, the guys in #vbox are awesome ;) [13:01] ok... [13:01] what about audio drivers in Wine? [13:01] not sayingof video yet [13:02] lazermann: what with audio drivers ? [13:02] hcitool scan is supposed to list my bluetooth adapters, correct? [13:02] in the audio TAB it seems that there are many drivers to choose from. ALSA is marked, but when i press to TEST the sound it does nothing [13:04] lazermann: you're under ubuntu -> you're using PulseAudio by default -> wine doesn't support PulseAudio yet -> Go to System -> Preferences -> Sound and choose ALSA -> open /etc/pulse/client.conf and set autospawn to false -> reboot -> choose the "ALSA" checkbox in winecfg's audio tab -> you have sound under wine.

I want to start some programs with my ATI Remote Wonder and I have mapped the keycodes but I can't seem to find a way to bind them.

Seems you having problem installing ubuntu 9.04 from a CD. There exist a lot of ways to install ubuntu. Have a look at https://help.ubuntu.com/9.04/installation-guide/i386/index.html for more detailed information.

Which suggests it's something to do with the drive. === sabalord is now known as Guest66526 [13:54] stalker314314: Have you tried setting "system setting" or "use this for all users" [13:54] Night_Owl, do you have a spare drive there? [13:55] Mechdave: dhcp server is on the router already. I can get ipaddress for 3 computer except for the ubuntu box [13:55] archman, yeah no problems why? [13:55] Mechdave: I do.. they're small ones, but I have em. [13:55] Mechdave: i can't run it, did you upgrade in Update manager from intrepid? [13:55] mib_l6ub2tbm: wait you can ping the router yet you don't have an ip address [13:56] buzzDrive, Hi there. I don't see any wrong with your fstab. Please explain more what is wrong [13:56] mib_l6ub2tbm, check that the network setings are for dhcp and not static addressing [13:56] archman, no I did a clean install [13:56] Mechdave, it doesn't work because I upgraded it seems [13:56] I need to roll back from libgl1-mesa-dri (7.4-0ubuntu3) to 7.3 . Where can I download the archive and perform this operation? [13:56] Blinkiz: I could not write any data with my current user, the directory is owned by root i don't know if it could help [13:57] ANYONE upgraded from intrepid to jaunty and his gnome-terminal works?

[13:57] archman: mine did [13:57] Night_Owl, I am wondering if you can do an install on another drive and then put all your bots onto that one for now [13:57] buzzDrive, Which drive are you talking about? You have a lot of them in your fstab [13:57] dotblank1, you upgraded with UM? [13:57] archman, that is odd, any error messages? [13:57] archman: you may have to delete your config files for gnome that might fix it [13:58] archman: I upgraded with "update-manager -d" [13:58] hi again! [13:58] Blinkiz: I speak about all volxx drive (partition) in fact [13:58] Hi guys, I just upgraded my laptop to jaunty and now i have some strange display problems. The desktop displays perfectly, everything runs smoothly but Ubuntu does not fill the screen, it has two strips top to bottom on the outer left and right of the screen that are not being used, it reminds me of the annoying black lines on the top and bottom of your tv when watching a film on tv.

[14:06] Night_Owl, I want to know which partitions are inside the extended partition [14:06] Bodsda: it just depends on the video card and monitor..

[14:09] Hello, I have ubuntu 9.04 and have a problem resumeing from S3 state, The monitor is black, the mouse pointer is visible but not usable and the computer is frozen even if I hard-reboot. I have to turn off the pc in order to restart. Any Idea? maybe it's my radeon hd 2600 pro pci-e and proprietary driver tha cause ? [14:09] satansaunt, No, I have tried. So I have began using smplayer instead. [14:09] giaco: Is this it? http://launchpadlibrarian.net/24403993/libgl1-mesa-dri_7.3-1ubuntu4_i386.deb\ [14:09] giaco: Is this it? http://launchpadlibrarian.net/24403993/libgl1-mesa-dri_7.3-1ubuntu4_i386.deb [14:09] Hi. After i upgraded from 8.10 to 9.04. My screen is corrupted when X starts. I see that it's using the RADEON driver,. I have an ATI X1400 graphic card in a IBM Thinkpas T60 laptop. Anyone know what cause it, or should i just change the driver to VESA? [14:09] blueme: the ati catalyst driver has notiusly bad suspend/resume support [14:09] lol, I've had to do the same BLinkiz [14:09] should rythembox work with the notification system? [14:10] dotblank1, how did you find it? [14:10] giaco: google :) [14:10] I need something similar to auditing, but with my own scripts. And therefore I need a hook, there I can hook into to start a script on logoff of any user. Is there something available? [14:10] dotblank1, but I've searched the very same name? [14:10] satansaunt, Also smplayer (which is just a gui for mplayer) has in latest versions support for Nvidia VDPAU. It means I get close to zero cpu load when playing 1080p full HD movies [14:11] giaco: where do you live? [14:11] hkais, you can start a script from a users .profile file [14:11] giaco: google might be differant in other locations [14:11] can I use the command dd to create an iso of my drive, then use the usb live tool to make a usb version of my current system? [14:11] thanx ripps [14:11] I used VLC because I found it was better when it comes to dealing with lower quality video [14:11] azlon: you can however be aware of some issues [14:11] Mechdave: I need it on logoff! [14:12] dotblank1: like what? [14:12] dotblank1, I usually use the .com version [14:12] satansaunt, yeah, I want to use vlc because I think its better. But this thing about separated video window and not having VDPAU support, makes me use smplayer instead [14:12] ...what's wrong with my keyboard [14:12] hkais, you want to run a script on logoff? try .bash_logout [14:12] Mechdave: Finally came up. /dev/sda1 is ext3 boot, 189.21 GiB; /dev/sda2 is extended, 721.67 MiB; /dev/sda5 is linux-swap, 721.64 MiB [14:13] Mechdave, just .gnome2 recreated, error is the same [14:13] azion: well for one in fstab it mounts by uuid, the /tmp folder will degrade life of drive, and grub boot entries may be inconsistant [14:13] Mechdave: isn't it something independent to bash? e.g. pam? [14:13] hghg [14:13] Mechdave, gnome-terminal: symbol lookup error: /usr/lib/libvte.so.9: undefined symbol: pango_layout_get_baseline [14:13] dotblank1: im still new to linux, but doesn't dd create a bit for bit image of my drive? if so, will this be a problem when writing to a usb drive of different size? [14:13] [14:14] also, has anyone else found that they have a problem with xfce panel disappearing on reboot and requiring a terminal command to start? === agruman_ is now known as agruman [14:14] azion this is also true.. it depends on if your flash drive is big enough.. you may have to use gparted to shrink the filesystem [14:14] hkais, you can look up the Linux boot process by searching for it in google, that will possibly give you many ways to do it :) [14:14] dotblank1: what do you mean the tmp folder will degrade the drive? meaning it will slowly fill up? [14:15] Mechdave: I do not need it on boot. I need it on any logoff of any user [14:15] Im trying to compile driver from broadcom corporation to Wifi. And cant. Do Anybody know what is mean GCC REV or CROSS_COMPILE? [14:15] azion: because the tmp drive has alot of non-essesntial writes that are small and very frquent it is better to mount that folder in ram [14:15] dotblank1, I need the corresponding mesa-glx package too, but I cannot find it [14:15] dotblank1: I currently have a 8 gig SSD on this netbook and my thumbdrive is 8 gigs... the space should be enough... I just want to install windows on here for my wife and be able to take my ubuntu with me wherever I go [14:15] is there some easy way to get ubuntu/gnome to update the group information? Or do i need to logout/login from gnome for it to refresh? [14:15] hkais, but if you study the boot process it will also let you understand the shutdown process :) [14:15] azion also on flash drives life is determined by the number of writes.. less writes = longer lasting drive [14:16] where is canal Ubuntu fr? [14:16] Mechdave, any other ideas? [14:16] dotblank1, it's the libgl1-mesa-glx 7.3 [14:16] gourlet: Fais comme ca: /join #ubuntu-fr [14:16] archman, hang about still thinking [14:16] Mechdave, ok, tnx!

I installed it via WINE. [14:17] dotblank1: hrmm... interesting... is it a major hurdle to make the tmp folder mount to ram? isn't this something that can be accomplished using a script when I boot?

I already have a backup of my system using partimage but the file it created is sda1.000. do you know if gparted creates the same type of file as dd?

[15:20] Night_Owl, These files should be in there, please check --> http://paste.ubuntu.com/162860/ [15:21] Jeruvy that didnt have any info on what version of gtk comes with the latest version of ubuntu [15:21] shally87: that error indicates your kernel was not built with the modules needed. Which I have to say is strange. need more info about kernel. [15:21] is there anybody that remotes kaffeine on jaunty with lirc [15:21] yes ose [15:21] i tried using alternate cd. but that upgrade also tries to donload packages. i use only 20 kbps speed line. at this speed the upgrade will take about 12 hours. i dont have that much uninterrupted time. [15:21] eoghan: check the release notes, they will indicate what packages are included with each release. [15:21] k [15:21] Jeruvy: how to fix that?? [15:21] shally87: if you installed using synaptic search for virtual box again but you should see kernel module listed as a package install that [15:21] jewel_: ask for a CD in Canonical [15:22] shally87: install a supported kernel, or rebuild the kernel. But that error is strange since jaunty should oob support that. [15:22] may be faster to do a reinstall jewel_ then a upgrade.

[16:00] thiebaude: yes everything worked great. The theme files are all still there, but GTK+ doesnt recognise them. At first it didnt recognise svg files but I recompiled the latest librsvg and that sorted that. It still doesnt handle my themes though [16:00] <_CommandeR_> Is there anyway to boot up a program before any other in Ubuntu 9.04 ? [16:00] chowabunga: bullshit!

[16:34] Night_Owl, ok restart and then we need to change the grub menu.lst [16:34] Mechdave: Dammit.. I can taste how close we are -_- [16:34] nobody knows about problems with jaunty + compiz + ati? [16:34] or atleast some sort of solution? roll back? [16:34] how do i change volume level control to 1% increments from 4% ? [16:35] dassouki: just a guess but you might need to install build tools essentials [16:35] bangolio, expert advice in #compiz I would guess [16:35] thanks === peleg_ is now known as peleg [16:35] does anyone running lightroom 2? [16:36] recon69: ah thanks [16:36] can someone tell me the best way to set the gnome-terminal default geometry without having to use --geometry=GEOMETRY from the command line? (I'm launching via keyboard shortcuts in gnome) === Armageddon is now known as Elijah === Elijah is now known as Armageddon [16:36] nope, there is no #ubuntu-netbook [16:36] where else could I ask? [16:36] Mechdave: Sorry to keep you up till 1am on a Saturday night dude :) [16:37] bc, map a keyboard shortcut that invokes a script that launches GT with the specified dimensions ... or use a window manager that remembers dimensions === Anomaly is now known as Guest90865 [16:37] recon69: i have gcc installed. i jsut have to tell g95 where it is :D [16:37] Is 9.04 working for anyone? [16:37] Mechdave: OK, Live is back up now. [16:37] If I create a "guest" user account, with only user-privileges (no access to administration or the root password) and mount it on /home/guest, but then later I remove the /home partition, where will the user's content be stored, and will it only be temporary (wiped out after a reboot?) [16:38] Night_Owl, ok remount the /boot on sda1 === Guest90865 is now known as Anomaly [16:38] Night_Owl, then sudo gedit /mnt/boot/grub/menu.lst [16:38] graphics driver problem === Anomaly is now known as Guest71135 [16:38] does anyone got 9.04 running?

[16:39] 8.10 [16:39] Guest71135: running the same ubuntu install since 6.10 [16:39] dassouki: would guess /usr/lib then. should really find it without any help if it's installed. [16:39] Mechdave: sudo mount -t ext3 /dev/sda1 /mnt ? [16:39] Night_Owl, yep [16:39] Hi everybody, someone's here to help to install my 3G modem ( Samsung SCH_U209 ) on Jaunty pls? === Guest71135 is now known as The_Anomaly [16:40] torn: The user won't be able to log if he doesn't have a home directory. [16:40] i recently upgraded to 9.04 and my graphics driver is not working properly and the driver isn't availabe [16:40] flash plugin very slow @ 16 bit color depth, d u know why ? === d is now known as Guest59711 [16:40] recon69: that's the directory i tried, and now it says that it cannot find ansidecl.h [16:40] dokuhebi, so it will not create for him a temporary home directory then? [16:41] recon69: i searched my pc abut didn't find it [16:41] vxroot: All I had to do with my UM175 was plug it in. Does Jaunty not detect it? [16:41] ive downloaded 9.04 twice and burnt it twice with ultimate iso it just spins and shoots the finger at me? [16:41] hey, just a quick question: anyone around who's a big imagemount-geek? :} [16:41] torn: no... Set the users home dir to /tmp. [16:41] Mechdave: Erm.. I don't see the hard drive after that line o.O [16:41] my windows freeze when opening files in apps such as gedit and thunderbird [16:41] Night_Owl, then sudo gedit /mnt/boot/grub/menu.lst [16:42] The_Anomaly: Are you able to get to the check CD option? [16:42] Roger that, [16:42] need to mount a partimage-restored NTFS-filesystem out of a image.img :p [16:42] Thank you, dokuhebi. [16:42] dassouki: check the install readme for required version info. [16:42] torn: That will delete itself after a reboot. [16:42] Night_Owl, what do you mean? [16:42] iam facing problems with hardy while browsing. wen i drag the scroll bar i need to wait for few sec for the page to scroll up or down. why is this. i think problems like this are making me tell windows is far better [16:42] Mechdave: I know, but after that mount command, the hard drive doesn't show up o.O [16:42] cdavis, i think it does [16:42] Sounds perfect. :) [16:42] hello i made a lid.sh file in jaunti but ubuntu dosent use it can someone help? [16:42] KnoppixNoob: Can you just do a "sudo mount -o loop image.img /mnt/image" ? [16:42] KnoppixNoob, sudo ntfs-3g /image.img /mnt -o loop [16:43] Night_Owl, does ls /mnt/boot show anything? [16:43] krishnan: what video drivers are u using? [16:43] Hi all, how can i check if jre is installed on my Ubuntu 9.04 installation? [16:43] trancefat, which jre [16:43] trancefat, java -version [16:43] krishnan: a lot of flash files / movies ¿ [16:43] is there a gui app like mp3gain for ubuntu? [16:43] vxroot: Might want to see if you can check the CD for errors with the built in utility. Initially I downloaded the 64 bit version which kept failing for me, are you sure you downloaded the right iso? [16:43] How do make the volume control change by 1% instead of 4% [16:43] Hello! One question. When you install from synaptic nvidia-glx, will you have to configure it after, or just enable visual effects and it will automatically be fine? [16:43] ? [16:43] ? [16:43] check [16:44] cdavis, user__ let me check... [16:44] xangua: no simple text web pages === usser_ is now known as usser [16:44] cdavis, yeah i do :/ [16:44] usser_: ok its not installed :( any idea which is the right one to install for installing eclipse [16:44] Mechdave: Yes.. it shows the file we put on earlier.. and another /boot folder inside which has a /grub folder in it.. lol [16:44] Newk: i did nt install any video drivers. this happens wen i am using my laptop for a longer time say 3 to 4 hours [16:44] cdavis, everything works fine [16:44] dassouki: it might require the gcc sources as well, dont really know what your installing though [16:44] trancefat, sun-java6-jdk [16:44] anyone know of a GUI tool for normalizing mp3 volume levels? [16:44] has anyone dealt with nvidia drivers in ubuntu? [16:45] vxroot: exactly where does it crap out? [16:45] recon69: i'm installing g95 a fortran compiler. i have all gcc 4.3 and gcc packages installed [16:45] mkasson, mp3gain [16:45] mkasson_: why do you need GUI? normalizing is an automated process [16:45] root@Knoppix:/# sudo ntfs-3g /dev/sdb1/Backup/image.img /mnt/test -o loop [16:45] Failed to access '/dev/sdb1/Backup/image.img': Not a directory [16:45] Please check the device and the ntfs-3g binary permissions, the mounting [16:45] user and group ID, and the mount options. You can find more explanation [16:45] at http://ntfs-3g.org/support.html#useroption [16:45] KnoppixNoob: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. [16:45] arg [16:45] usser: thanks a lot... if i install this from the synaptic package manager, and then install eclipse from there.. will eclipse automatically know where the jdk is? [16:45] someone with jaunti lid.sh experience? [16:45] ati graphics driver problem [16:45] Hello all, I m getting error message that "Desktop effects could not be evaluated" when i enable "Normal" visual effects in appearnce [16:46] trancefat, if you install eclipse from repos it should pull jdk with it [16:46] c;ear [16:46] naimesh, wat video drivers installed? [16:46] KnoppixNoob: that command line is totally goofed up. [16:46] silly knoppix from the CD :p [16:46] Night_Owl, ok edit the menu.lst file and put another /boot in front of the other /boot on lines 135 and 136 [16:46] ah? [16:46] KnoppixNoob, you have to make the drictory first [16:46] usser: oh ok... thanks again [16:46] LjL, the CLI tool doesn't have the same "set at volume level x" as the windows version [16:46] KnoppixNoob: use /path/to/the/whatever.img which is NOT going to be /dev/sdb1 === edson is now known as dmesg [16:47] Nvidia drivers problem. How to make sure there will be no black screen upon reboot? [16:47] LjL, no magic to GUI, its that I've already checked out the CLI tool [16:47] KnoppixNoob, are you mounting an image of ntfs drive or ntfs drive itself? [16:47] psywiped: already done... [16:47] mkasson_: there is not *one* CLI tool. which one have you tried? [16:47] LjL, of course, its always nice to get shiny progress state too. [16:47] LjL, mp3gain [16:48] usser: an image of an ntfs-drive wich lies on an... ntfs-drive, but its already mounted, thats not the prob. [16:48] LjL, didn't even know there were other good ones [16:48] KnoppixNoob: have you tried that command with mount instead of ntfs-3g? [16:48] Night_Owl, So the path to the vmlinuz is /mnt/boot/boot/? [16:48] Dr_Willis: like /media/sdb1/... ? [16:48] dassouki: can only recommend that you follow the g95 instruction, it states that 4.0.3 is know to work and others are not, ubuntu currently installs 4.3 [16:48] Mechdave: So, kernel /boot/boot/vmlinuz... and initrd /boot/boot/initrd... ? [16:48] How do make the volume control change by 1% instead of 4% [16:48] what was changed in jaunty that's causing all the compiz problems? [16:49] KnoppixNoob: theres a BIG differance btween mount POINTS and Devices.. [16:49] dassouki: *are not know. [16:49] oh [16:49] to /mnt/boot/boot [16:49] ok [16:49] KnoppixNoob: /dev/sdb1 is a device.. /media/SOmthing is a directory you mount a filesystem TO. [16:49] KnoppixNoob, so you have to mount ntfs drive first then image that lies on it [16:49] anyone experiencing any freezes while trying to open files? [16:49] KnoppixNoob, ie sudo ntfs-3g /dev/sdb1 /mnt/ntfsdrive [16:49] Night_Owl, yep as long as you have vmlinuz in /mnt/boot/boot/ [16:49] mkasson_: mp3gain does have quite a few option to decide just how much gain to set [16:49] Hello all, sorry for last message as my pc stopped responding [16:49] KnoppixNoob, the sudo ntfs-3g /mnt/ntfsdrive/image.img /mnt/ntfsimage -o loop [16:50] Mechdave: Well, they're also in /mnt/boot .. so does it matter which one? [16:50] So to start again, i get message that "Desktop effects can not be enabled" when i try normal desktop effects [16:50] If i start compiz in terminal i get message that "Blacklisted PCIID '8086:2a02' found " [16:50] usser: done... sdb1 is mounted, can access it. [16:50] LjL, yup. familiar with them. and there's a windows version of mp3gain that also has "set at perceived x db". don't believe thats in CLI [16:50] Night_Owl, something wrong here... [16:50] KnoppixNoob, now mount the image. [16:50] So does that mean that graphics drive that i have is black listed? [16:50] cdavis: and yep, tried it...: [16:50] naimesh, which card? [16:51] Night_Owl, they are in /mnt/boot/boot as well? [16:51] root@Knoppix:/# sudo mount -o loop /media/sdb1/Backup/image.img /mnt/test mount: Could not find any loop device. Maybe this kernel does not know about the loop device? (If so, recompile or `modprobe loop'.) [16:51] Mechdave: Everything that's in /mnt/boot is copied into /mnt/boot/boot .. but it doesn't go past that (apart from there being a /mnt/boot/boot/grub/ folder) [16:51] KnoppixNoob, do you have loop devices in your /dev ? [16:52] Night_Owl, right save the menu.lst and reboot [16:52] KnoppixNoob, try sudo modprobe loop as it suggests [16:52] naimesh: It probably does. Several graphics cards have unfortunately been blacklisted, prohibiting the the use of desktop effects. [16:52] my wireless adapter suddenly stopped working. Its an Atheros Communications Inc. AR242x 802.11abg Wireless PCI Express Adapter. lshw -C networking says its UNCLAIMED. What can I do?? [16:52] naimesh: My Intel X3100 is in that camp. [16:52] louise_: Is this a laptop? [16:52] How do make the volume control change by 1% instead of 4% [16:52] linux is complicated for a windows-guy it seems me :p [16:53] user13 yes [16:53] bangolio: how to check which card do i have [16:53] rabbit251: it use to work in 8.10 and stopped in 9.04 [16:53] KnoppixNoob, nonsense [16:53] KnoppixNoob: It's just different, not necessarily complicated. [16:53] usr13, yes [16:53] hi [16:53] Mechdave: Changes made, shut down.. turning back on now without the CD. [16:53] louise_: Did you [accidently] turn it off with the keyboard switch? [16:53] cdrom not detected in jaunty / not listed in dev [16:53] YO YO YO! someone recommend some uber simple effecient *wiki* software [16:53] well it says: FATAL: Could not read '/lib/modules/2.6.24.4/updates/loop.ko': Invalid argument [16:54] !poll [16:54] Night_Owl, even got my eyes crossed [16:54] Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task. It's up to you to choose, depending on your preferences, features you require, and other factors. Do NOT take polls in the channel. If you insist on getting people's opinions, ask BestBot in #ubuntu-bots. [16:54] usr13, nope. Its laying at the ON position [16:54] louise_: Issue command: iwconfig [16:54] its a standard Knoppix-DVD (5.4 if I remember right) [16:54] louise_: iwconfig will show you if the device is active, (driver software loaded for it). [16:54] ooops, 5.3 [16:54] someone with jaunti laptop and the problem that lid comes back when you move the mouse? [16:54] Mechdave: LOL.. I think I'm back to the live CD; Error 15 again. Maybe change those to /mnt/boot instead.. umm.. might make a difference which menu I edit o.O [16:55] usr13, http://paste.ubuntu.com/162924/ [16:55] sagredo: mediawiki is recommended in a book of mine [16:55] usr13, i think its off [16:55] naimesh: Yeah... unfortunately, I think many were blacklisted since Intrepid. Especially in the Intel chipset. I'm trying to find a compilation of the blacklist right now. Do you know if yours is Intel? [16:55] usr13, I mean, the driver is not loaded then [16:55] louise_: It's off [16:55] I don't know [16:56] louise_: Yes, you are correct. It is off. The driver is not loaded. [16:56] rabbit25: how can i see what card do i have? [16:56] Night_Owl, /mnt is only where we have the filesystem mounted [16:56] How do make the volume control change by 1% instead of 4% [16:56] rabbit25: i m using Dell - A860 [16:56] usr13, how do I load it? [16:56] Night_Owl, Before you do hit esc I think at the grum menu [16:56] Give me a few minutes to boot up.. I'll edit the one that's in /mnt/boot/grub and direct it only to /mnt/boot.. and we can delete the others I think.. because I might have edited the boot/boot one. [16:56] Um [16:57] louise_: Try the keyboard. [16:57] Live's almost up again. [16:57] Night_Owl, I want to edit the menu.lst on the fly [16:57] KnoppixNoob, try ntfs-3g -o /dev/loop0 /image.img /mnt/ntfsimage [16:57] How do make the volume control change by 1% instead of 4% and how do i make the volume wheel change by 1% instead of 12% [16:57] can you guys point me to the location of dir_colors in ubuntu? [16:57] naimesh: Just a sec. [16:57] KnoppixNoob, thats weird that knoppix doesnt have loop devices [16:57] Mechdave: lol.. ok, gimme a minute to re-reboot :D [16:57] can someone help with nvidia driver? [16:57] rabbit25: i think i have Intel Corporation Mobile GM965/GL960 [16:57] naimesh, yep this one is blacklisted [16:58] usr13, and reboot? [16:58] louise_: lspci |grep ireless [16:58] rabbit25: if i run comiz with SKIP_CHECKS=yes it start correctly [16:58] Hrm [16:58] KnoppixNoob, try a regular ubuntu livecd [16:58] But can that create problms? [16:58] hey wat are some recommendations for torrent clients i have used gogle but a lot of the posts are from the 06-07 timeframe [16:59] louise_: did you try iwconfig again to see if it's on now? [16:59] ah ok [16:59] usr13, 02:00.0 Ethernet controller: Atheros Communications Inc. AR242x 802.11abg Wireless PCI Express Adapter (rev 01) [16:59] i have bee using deluge [16:59] usr13, yes, its still off [16:59] is someoneavailable to for help with nvidia drivers? [16:59] and i get speeds of 1MB + [16:59] so its not a speed issue === gary is now known as Guest80873 [16:59] just curious of what you guys run [16:59] help with ati drivers [16:59] Night_Owl, are you in the edit screen yet? [16:59] Mechdave: Not ESC; 'e' :) I'm at the list now. Edit kernel and initrd to /mnt/boot instead of /mnt/boot/boot ? [16:59] (btw yes MB) [16:59] !ask |ss300 [16:59] ss300: 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. :-) [17:00] what's the percentage of Ubuntu market share? [17:00] Night_Owl, try that [17:00] naimesh: does your ubuntu work otherwise with your intel graphics device ? e.g. if you watch youtube videos or use some services using graphics, do they work normally ? [17:00] well linux just hit !1% [17:00] ubottu i did noone answered [17:00] Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) [17:00] so im sure its hella low [17:00] floating: yes, everything works fine [17:00] naimesh: "sudo lspci |more" should return your graphics card info, but it looks like you already found it. [17:00] ubottu i dontwanna type it all the time [17:00] Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) [17:00] !ot [17:00] #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics. Thanks! [17:00] usser: problem solved, the image is mounted now. But as I thought, partimage fucked up the data... e.g.: "program files" is empty. I did read about that bug if you use partimage mit gzip-compression and file-splitting (after making the image AND after the source-HDD died...). [17:00] rabbit251: yes [17:00] louise_: Yea, I guess you could just reboot. I don't know why it is dissabled, that is a fully supported wifi device. [17:01] usr13, brb [17:01] KnoppixNoob, partimage. for imaging ntfs on linux i would trust only dd [17:01] !compiz [17:01] Compiz (compositing window manager), for a howto see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompositeManager and more help #compiz-fusion [17:01] naimish: Yes, a lot of people have been using the workaround. Just know that there was a reason it was blacklisted, and some things may not work right. [17:01] CAN SOMEONE TELL ME PLEASE if there is a way to avoid blackscreen upon reboot after installation of nvidia driver????????????????? [17:02] I've got the jaunty-backports network-manager installed and a Intel 4965 AGN wireless card and I'm sure I'm close, since iwlist wlan0 scan works... but my old connection routine (iwconfig wlan0 essid blah channel blah && dhclient3 wlan0) no longer works. [17:02] usser: I know that now... yes. :) But the bugreports say that only the restored data is destroyed, the image should be okay (not my mounted image of course). [17:02] hell -- how i can get adobe flash player or java working on 9.4 (64) [17:02] ? [17:02] Night_Owl, any joy? [17:02] 64bit noobs? [17:02] Noob: By installing the corresponding packages [17:02] yep [17:03] Mechdave: Gah.. didn't do it :/ Still Error 15: File not found. [17:03] well i keep installing stuff...still youtobe videos wont work ... [17:03] hawk: on Knoppix? I suck already at getting ICQ to work. :) [17:03] Noob: sun-java6-plugin for java [17:03] <----- :} [17:04] !icq [17:04] The Instant Messenger Client Pidgin (formerly Gaim) (http://help.ubuntu.com/community/Pidgin) supports MSN, XMPP (Jabber, GTalk and variants), AIM, Gadu-Gadu, Novell Groupwise, ICQ, YIM, IRC and others. See also !Kopete [17:04] what was changed in jaunty that's causing all the compiz problems? [17:04] yes, and pidgin comes already with knoppix... but its outdated and wont connect. And I suck at updating it already :p [17:04] Noob: flashplugin-installer for flash, iirc [17:05] usr13, I just noticed during boot there's a line that says madwifi() and it used to read madwifi(Atherosblablabla) [17:05] user__, its still not claiming my card [17:05] hawk thx m8 :0 [17:05] louise_: Is it working now? [17:05] Is there a way to turn modify my terminal visually? I want it to appear translucent [17:05] usr13, nope [17:06] steven_: if you are using compiz you can set any window tobe semi-transpa4rent [17:06] louise_: what does iwconfig say? [17:06] but thats not the prob... my prob is how I can make out of those backup.gz.000 ... backup.gz.050 files one huge file? cat backup.gz.* > backupfile.gz didn't seem to work, partimage stopped the restoring after 2GB... [17:06] Any ideas why iwlist wlan0 scan would work but dhclient3 wlan0 never seems to find anything? [17:06] Night_Owl, right I know the problem... rather stupid of me really, put in the top of the first line "root (hd0,0)" without quotes [17:06] steven_: Edit --> Profile [17:06] naimish: I think there have even been more serious issues. Like this person (http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=583679) who couldn't log in after forcing through the blacklist. So just be careful. I sure wish it were failsafe, because I really want desktop effects. But I've heard it can really mess up video/VoIP, which I'm dependent on. Good luck! [17:06] steven_: Edit --> Profile --> Background [17:06] usr13, still no wireless extensions] [17:07] rabbit251: i just checked compiz site and there reason is mention as "XV does not play with XAA under compiz, only with EXA " [17:07] Mechdave: OK, so the lines are root, uuid, kernel, initrd, quiet? [17:07] rabbit251: so i think for now i will leave with out effects and wait for the fix :) [17:07] With /mnt/boot/boot/ 's? [17:07] louise_: Are you on 9.04 ? [17:08] usr13, yes. [17:08] louise_: Is it full updated? [17:08] usr13, yep. [17:08] naimesh: Cool beans. Hope it comes soon. [17:08] usr13, it used to work [17:08] usr13, something messed up [17:08] louise_: And it worked before. Well, what did you do? [17:08] louise_: Did you change kernel? [17:08] usr13, nothing I recall [17:09] usr13, nope [17:09] Try the liveCD, see if it works with the live CD. [17:09] usr13, something is wrong with the driver it seems, maybe I could reinstall it [17:10] louise_: I think that driver is built into the kernel. [17:10] louise_: Just a sec.

[17:22] Bman: Yeah. [17:22] lazerman: first we need to get things working again, and once they are, you can try perhaps installing the next most recent driver, to see if that works properly. [17:22] ok [17:22] gartral: you can kill libnotify and then restart it afterwards [17:22] Is it possible to install openoffice 3.1? This release has 1000 of bugfixes and new features!

I think none are drivers [17:35] at ALL [17:35] ghoti: sorry for the delay, but adding .xprofile ended up preventing me from logging in. any other ideas? [17:35] coleys and i don't see anything [17:35] roxtop: dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg [17:35] Shivam, try to upgrade first then do a fresh if that doesnt work [17:35] I did it [17:35] usr13, atl2 is [17:35] lazerman: Do ALT +F2 --> sudo apt-get remove nvidia-glx-180 (check run in terminal) [17:35] I have to go into recovery to access the terminal [17:35] "is more likely an issue with Compiz itself rather than the xserver" [17:35] it's not the driver genius [17:35] usr13, but not for my card I think [17:35] is there a ubuntu cmd to access the external - internet ip? [17:36] hey i was just wondering if wow will woork in 64bit linux? [17:36] penthief: Was it just the initial boot after installation that caused the delay, or should I be worried? [17:36] louise_: Download from sourceforge I guess.. I dono... [17:36] bangolio, uninstall compiz then reinstall [17:36] bangolio, or you could get a good videocard from NVIDIA [17:36] louise_: I don't know why it would work once and not again.

[17:37] Now it works [17:37] That is lame [17:37] Shivam, try to upgrade it first [17:37] ghoti: alright, lemme try that [17:37] Meinmartini: dunno. I think boot time is faster on 9.04. I don't think the initial boot should be any longer. [17:37] shivam_ I just upgraded a machine at work to 9.04 yesterday and it went with no problems at all === blu2 is now known as Guest10832 [17:38] coleys_, last question: when i click control alt 2, the at sign does not appear... some with 3 and 9,0,°,... can't have the third symbol.

Will the upgrade delete my documents? [17:39] steven_: edit -> Profile Preferences; look at the Font setting [17:39] compiz is seprate from ubuntu [17:39] usr13: no help [17:39] I meant the one where it takes up the whole window [17:39] Anybody? [17:39] can i work without compiz? [17:39] shivam_: it shouldn't, but it can't hurt to back up /home/ first :) [17:39] Or does that modify that one as well? [17:39] How do make the volume control change by 1% instead of 4% and how do i make the volume wheel change by 1% instead of 12% [17:39] it gives me the same thing as befire, on all threetimes [17:39] bangolio, of course [17:39] how [17:39] bangolio, yea its just eyecandy [17:40] ghoti: Thank you. [17:40] steven_: oh, the textmode console? I think there is, but I don't recall [17:40] psywiped: You have touchpad volume controls? [17:40] bangolio, disable effects under Appearance [17:40] shivam_ anytime [17:40] when i kill compiz i cant do antyhing [17:40] cdavis: Looks like you can do something like: sudo tasksel install lamp-server (Just looking at: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP ) [17:40] coleys_, no its a wheel on the side of the computer [17:40] gksudo displayconfig-gtk [17:40] psywiped: oh, I have the same issue... Like one touch makes the volume go up to max =p It's sketchballll. [17:40] roxtop: gksudo displayconfig-gtk [17:40] coleys_, yes still on belgium [17:40] YES THANK GOD [17:41] roxtop: What video card do you have? [17:41] bangolio, now was that really so hard? :P [17:41] usr13: Thanks [17:41] Yes, in textmode console the text is rather big and I'd love to make it smaller [17:41] cdavis: Sure, glad to help. [17:42] usr13: I was not able to find it via apt-source so appreciate it [17:42] "cannot open display" [17:42] an ati 46540 [17:42] err [17:42] 4650 [17:42] I guess my other question is...in the window terminal, how do I get root access? [17:42] steven_: I'm looking for information on that right now as I'd like to make the same change :) [17:42] hehe [17:42] Let me knwo when you find it! :) [17:42] !sudo | steven_ [17:42] steven_: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more information. For graphical applications see !gksu (Gnome, XFCE), or !kdesudo (KDE) [17:42] Hi... When I mount devices in Nautilus (gnome-mount), the label will be "12GB Volume"... But I want to get mount-point ex. "/media/disk" will have the label 2disk" [17:42] steven_, you don't use root in ubuntu [17:42] *"disk" [17:42] usr13: must be old info, claims lamp-server package not found [17:43] steven_: As far as the text console, you can use the setfont command to change the font, but you need terminal-compatible fonts installed. Not entirely sure how to do that on Ubuntu [17:43] roxtop: That's interesting: "cannot open display" Are you able to use sudo commands? Like: sudo rm /etc/X11/xorg.conf ? [17:43] How do make the volume control change by 1% instead of 4% and how do i make the volume wheel change by 1% instead of 12% [17:43] I gotta head out guys, later... Sorry bman... Good luck. [17:43] cdavis: That's what I was afraid of. [17:43] steven_: Another way that might get you what you're looking for is just to add "vga=773" (without the quotes) to your kernel boot line in grub. [17:43] usr123: I did thatt before [17:43] np coleys_ , thx! [17:43] Yoiu told me to [17:43] usr13: I can just do it manually, was hoping for a shortcut [17:43] I can't start gtk OR X [17:43] cdavis: But it said "since 7.04" and I thought it was meaning perpetual. [17:44] they just give me the purople screen [17:44] ok lemme try again: Is there anything I can do to make the performance of the netbook remix interface on my machine suck less?? [17:44] somebody knows how to install raid with ubuntu 9.04? with the 8.10 i had to use the alternate cd, but i've read that now it isn't needed, is this true? [17:44] steven sudi -i [17:44] sudo [17:44] Hi. I would like my user to have the POSIX capability CAP_SYS_NICE. Does anyone know how I would do this, without sudoing? suid doesn't seem to work, as far as I can tell.... [17:44] steven_: Of the two things I just suggested, I would try the latter first. Do you know how to edit your kernel boot lines? [17:44] cdavis: Yea, just do apt-get install mysql apache etc.etc. [17:45] hola [17:45] I'd doing this through the recovery terminal === opop is now known as umpop [17:46] has no one here actually tried using the netbook remix? [17:47] I do not know how to edit the kernel boot lines [17:47] So... yeah [17:47] I don't know what to do [17:48] steven_: WARNING: I'm seeing a lot of reports that adding a vga= paramater to the kernel boot lines renders the text mode consoles useless [17:48] steven: example: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=542233 [17:49] i'm using unr 9.04 but i'm not able to get the userlist in any userlist enabled gdm-themes, what am I missing? [17:49] Is there even a reason to use the text console? [17:49] On 9.04, how does the upstream SMTP server get configured? [17:49] steven_: Okay, when you boot up, you'll have to get to the grub boot menu. Then choose the line for the Ubuntu kernel that you typically boot and hit 'e'. You should see a line that begins with "kernel." Select that line and hit 'e' again. Then add the end of the line, add "vga=773". [17:49] steven_: Despite ghoti's warning, what I just told you to do is temporary. It will only do it once, so it'll let you test it out to see if it works for you [17:49] How do make the volume control change by 1% instead of 4% and how do i make the volume wheel change by 1% instead of 12% [17:50] steven_: If it doesn't work, you can just reboot as normal [17:50] ugh, I can't get rid of the maximus, it always gets respawned after I kill it, even though I've unchecked it in startup programs [17:50] somebody knows how to install raid with ubuntu 9.04? with the 8.10 i had to use the alternate cd, but i've read that now it isn't needed, is this true? [17:50] steven_: Also, note that the examples in ghoti's link are trying higher vga values. vga=773 is more standard [17:50] psywiped: you get a bettergraphics card lawl [17:50] roxtop: X -configure [17:51] roxtop: xorgsetup [17:51] hmm [17:51] first one game me a Segmentation fault at the end [17:51] roxtop: sudo xorgsetup [17:51] xorg steup [17:51] oops [17:51] command not sound [17:51] What is a vga value? [17:51] roxtop, what does a graphics card have to do with sound settings the audio works i just want to adjust it in smaller instruments [17:51] RedSocrates: you sure you mean vga=774 and not something like 0x773? [17:52] hmw: Yes, I'm sure. But not 774, 773 [17:52] RedSocrates ok. [17:52] How do I configure postfix to send mail out? [17:52] Why would someone want to choose a higher vga value? [17:52] roxtop: xdebconfigurator [17:52] steven_: different values indicate different resolutions and colour depths [17:52] steven_: The vga values set the framebuffer resolution for your console. [17:52] I wonder why it would "do that? [17:52] steven_ i like to have a smaller font on the console, as I work with it often [17:52] roxtop: sudo xdebconfigurator [17:53] steven_: Right, what ghoti said answers the rest of your question [17:53] hi *, what package you suggest to monitoring network utilization ? [17:53] Compiz failed after boot, I had it before, screenshot how it looked then, and how it looks somewhat now - http://img509.imageshack.us/img509/1117/schermafdruk22.png [17:53] after updating to 9.4 [17:53] command not found [17:53] roxtop: apt-get install xdebconfigurator [17:53] hmw: By the way, the values that you mentioned will work as well. The "vga=" options accepts different formatting of the numbers [17:53] RedSocrates what is 773? [17:53] sambismo: ntop gives the most in-depth reporting with ease of use in my opinion [17:53] Hi folks. [17:53] hmw: 773 is 8-bit 1024x768 [17:53] coundn't fing package [17:54] ghnomb [17:54] hi all, [17:54] RedSocrates: sounds like hex 305... let me check [17:54] err [17:54] unable to fetch package [17:54] hmw: Off the top of my head, I think that's right. Not sure [17:54] ghoti tnx, there is an how to monitor or limit network utilization ? [17:54] How do I get the grub boot menu? [17:54] roxtop: apt-cache search xorg setup [17:54] RedSocrates: yes, 0x305 = dec 773. be careful, what you pass to vga= since this difference [17:54] How do I configure an outgoing email server? [17:54] !grub [17:54] 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 [17:54] sambismo: I've heard good things about shaperd [17:55] !info shaperd | sambismo [17:55] sambismo: shaperd (source: shaperd): A user-mode traffic shaper for tcp-ip networks. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.2.1-5.2 (jaunty), package size 41 kB, installed size 196 kB [17:55] steven_: You get to it during boot. [17:55] Zzeiss: Which mail server are you working on? [17:55] I'm experiencing glitches with my ATI in the desktop environment since the update to ubuntu 9.04 [17:55] gives me four things with explanations [17:55] someone knows about that ? [17:55] aptoncd , i have this error : failed to work on jaunty [17:55] Using xmodmap to acheive right-clicking on a one-button mouse means that I will be able to assign a key to *be* a right click button. What I'd like is coupling a primary mouse click with the Ctrl key, in which case the click is interpreted as secondary. Can anyone point me to mechanisms that might be capable of this? [17:55] hi, i try to use a mdadm raid with preseed. i tried to install it manually and use debconf-get-selections to show what was done but i couldn't find any useful infos. isn't this possible? [17:55] steven_: As the others just noted, it should automatically show you the menu when you boot up. It usually says something like "Ubuntu 9.04, kernel 2.6.28-11-generic" [17:55] lixi-dev, libxi6, libx16-dbg, and xdebconfigurator [17:55] moveax: did you have fglrx installed before the upgrade? [17:56] roxtop: Install the one that looks most promising. [17:56] steven_: Plus other options. [17:56] ... [17:56] I can't [17:56] hmw: yes, it was installed before [17:56] i'm having some issues with my mdadm RAID5 [17:56] I'm not connected to the internet there [17:56] usr13: Well, I'm kinda committed to using Emacs Rmail, which does a shell "mail" command. At that point, I become clueless. Except that I know the name of the mail server that the firewall allows smtp from (and from no other node). [17:56] roxtop: xdebconfigurator [17:56] i can't delete a file from a folder on the RAID [17:56] Alright...I'll watch the boot for once...ha [17:56] roxtop: sudo apt-get install xdebconfigurator [17:56] the file operations window just stays open [17:56] ... [17:56] I'm not connected to the internet there [17:56] moveax: on my radeon 9600, installing fglrx rendered my system unusable. I heard about problems with that driver, people kept suggesting the open source driver [17:56] I can't do that [17:56] <{g}> Hey People! Anybody familiar with rdiff-backup? this seems to be a extremely useful tool. I wonder if its possible to do some kind of dry run with it that only shows which files would be backup if run normaly. [17:57] moveax: i meant, after a fresh jaunty install, installing fglrx crashed my sys [17:57] steven_: Okay. Remember that you will have to hit 'e' to edit the values, and then 'e' again on the "kernel" line to add vga=773 to the end [17:57] Right [17:57] hmw: i'm using the open open source ATI driver [17:57] hmm [17:57] steven_: If it doesn't work, just reboot as normal without editing anything and come back :) [17:57] roxtop: Can you connect to internet with it? Do you have a router you can plug into? [17:57] i think i'll try umounting the RAID array.. [17:57] moveax: that one should work normally. Here it does quite nicely. [17:57] stopping the mythbackend service [17:57] usr13: So, it's whatever the "mail" shell command would use if invoked from the command line. [17:57] cloakey, looks like you'd need to read in both a key and mouse at the same time - doesn't sound terribly difficult - check for mouse and ctrl key character in same code if you're writing something up? [17:57] then running a jfs_fsck -f on the array [17:58] I can't plug it into my router [17:58] it's a room away [17:58] it has a wireless thingy [17:58] moveax: maybe purging fglrx might help you, that driver is kind of nasty [17:58] nasecito ayuda [17:58] roxtop: that's what 100m ethernet cables are for ;) [17:58] I dion't HAVE a 100m ethernet cable [17:58] roxtop: Connect via wireless; iwconfig [17:58] roxtop: fail *g* [17:58] Anyone changed their default jaunty kernel cos it's laggy as hell? [17:58] anyone need some help here?? [17:58] steven_: By the way, if you'd like a fuller explanation, here's a decent (perhaps too informative) guide: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FrameBuffer [17:58] i need help [17:59] ok whats going on [17:59] Magician: the kernel is not laggy per se. Check, if you have that DNS/ipv6 problem. [17:59] i'm having mdadm issues [17:59] hmw: I don't know if a purge will help. I've given a look to xorg.conf and the ATI driver is used [17:59] roxtop: iwlist scan [17:59] i have been trying to delete a file from the array, but the file operations window never closes and the file is never moved to trash [17:59] i've been trying to bittorrent a file, and transmission keeps hanging [17:59] hmmm interesting [17:59] I think the kernel is laggy... and I think latencytop proves it.. [17:59] moveax: i saw a lot of tutorials, that recommended purging the driver completely for different reasons. You could give it a try, but I am just guessing here [17:59] roxtop: dhclient eth1 #where eth1 is the wifi interface [17:59] i think there's something wrong with the array [18:00] ok go through the operations you are doing [18:00] "Interface doesn't suppoer scanning : Network is down" [18:00] hmw: ok, thank you [18:00] r3dux: I'm looking for a mechanism to do this system-wide, actually. I might write something up, but a preferable alternative would be software that already does this. I assumed this might have crossed the Mactel team. [18:00] hmw: I will try [18:00] i ran top [18:00] moveax: dont forget to check xorg.0.log [18:00] roxtop: Is this a fully updated 9.04 system? [18:00] The alpha is gone from my desktop, all is hard edged. Got a message about it during loading. Using compiz [18:00] and it's telling me that the kjournald process has been running for 120 some odd hours [18:00] ok hold on just a sec [18:00] yes [18:00] cloakey - get youself an interupt handler for keyboard and mouse, and write a TSR that waits for them.. [18:00] running the other one now [18:00] hi , I have a Live USB of 9.04. I once selected the Hindi Language while booting up...now I am not able to revert to the original english language. PLZ help. [18:01] which array file are you trying to remove [18:01] roxtop: iwconfig eth1 essid linksys #where linksys is essid of wiri router and eth1 is wifi interface [18:01] just a video file [18:01] it's abotu 1.1GBs [18:01] last weeks Chuck episode [18:02] mythcommflag has been running for 51 hours [18:02] ok hold on just a sec [18:02] roxtop: and then: dhclient eth1 #where eth1 is wifi nic [18:02] cloakey - why do you want both keyboard and mouse input to kick something off? [18:02] Thanks for the framebuffer link [18:02] ...done [18:02] im trying to make a grub splashimage, and the code includes splashimage(hdX,Y) -- how do i find the values for X and Y? [18:02] roxtop: and then: dhclient eth1 #where eth1 is wifi nic [18:02] steven_: so it worked? Yay! \o/ [18:02] steven_: now I'm going to try :) [18:03] Idiot question of the day! What on earth is a/the kernel??? I am going to venture a wild guess it is what allows the software and hardware to talk back and forth [18:03] !kernel | steven_ [18:03] steven_: 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 [18:03] steven_, basically, yes. It's the "guts" of any system that handles the io abd subsystems that make it all hang together [18:03] steven_: You're basically right [18:03] done [18:03] roxtop: Test connection: host av.com [18:03] Alguém do brasil? [18:03] steven_ the kernel is the core program running your computer. It is there to manage the ressources and provide services to the programs like file access, network, keyboard, etcetc [18:03] woohoo! [18:03] usr13: the problem seems to be that I need to route outgoing email through the company's SMTP server, which is the only thing allowed to do outbound SMTP connections. And I don't know where to set that bit of configuration - to domain-masquerade as that server, and to route to that server. [18:03] steven_: the kernel is the very core of the operating system. It's the 'traffic director' for all your hardware and software [18:04] roxtop: sudo apt-get install xdebconfigurator [18:04] hello. i recently installed ubuntu 9.04. when i type a command in the shell (bash) there is a big pause when the command is not found. i've been using linux before and i had no such problem. any ideas? [18:04] connection timed out [18:04] is it something that can be fixed from the shell? [18:04] Oi, pode me ajudar? [18:04] BloodElf: youre not running live? whats your $PATH? [18:04] roxtop: Did you get the essid right? What is the essid of your wifi router? [18:04] Is there an easy way to install the rt kernel? Latencies more like 5ms than 200? [18:04] is there a way to get a list of packages installed, that doesnt include the default OS packages (ie ones that you have installed after the OS has been installed)? [18:04] BloodElf: what command are yuo using? [18:04] internet [18:05] Apaxis: it's not live cd. i've installed it on my hard drive [18:05] hi, my machine freezes dead. can somebody help me to troubleshoot this ? [18:05] ActionParsnip: you mean interpreter? [18:05] Code-Bleu - AptOnCD might give you something like that [18:05] Code_Bleu: for the first part of that, dpkguqery -l | grep ii [18:05] my $PATH is ok i guess - /usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/games [18:05] Code_Bleu: I'm not sure how to remove 'base' packages from the list, but that might be a start [18:05] BloodElf: this happens for every unknown command? [18:05] Apaxis: yes [18:06] The machine is nForce based, with nvidia gpu for graphics, 3GB of RAM. [18:06] r3dux: doesnt that also include things like Ubuntu-Desktop package? [18:06] the pause is around 1-2 seconds [18:06] i just installed libdvdcss2 and w32codecs, but totem complains about missing codecs. Just did the same on another machine, where it initially refused to work, but suddenly started to work. What is going on? [18:06] the machine is getting dead with linux, but with windows it runs for days. [18:06] Code - prolly, apply the common-sense filter ;) [18:06] hmm [18:06] BloodElf: fix: stop mistyping your commands :) [18:06] ghoti: lol :) [18:06] in linux - spelling counts [18:06] BloodElf: no, I just want an example of what commands you are having issues with [18:06] it's really annoying [18:06] action: i think all of them [18:07] How vary dare you, Dr_Willis... Oh, "counts"... [18:07] ActionParsnip: every command that can not be found [18:07] ActionParsnip: I can confirm the issue- I get about a ~0.5 sec delay when I deliberately type a noncommand [18:07] BloodElf: you could try copying .bahrc from /etc/skel ackup the curerent one [18:07] that is odd [18:07] erm [18:07] ActionParsnip: BloodElf: I get no such delay when I specify a path, e. g. /home/ghoti/asdgafg [18:08] ghoti: for command that exist there is no delay. only when the shell can not find the command [18:08] ActionParsnip: BloodElf: so it *may* be a path parsing and/or shell issue. I'll try installing zsh [18:08] Every command that cannot be found is the entire search space of everything in your path bar the executables - ~0.5second delay is a problem why? [18:08] ghoti: i'm using bash [18:08] hello [18:08] why the os realize my wireless card but it cant work ??? [18:08] BloodElf: my point is that if I try '/home/ghoti/thisdoesnotexist.sh', there is no delay [18:09] r3dux: it's not really a problem. more of annoying thing [18:09] I want to move /var/www to /home/cdavis/var/www but I keep getting permission denied access / in my apache2 error logs? I don't see any apparmor reference in the logs and I have the dir created [18:09] I have never been on an IRC and don't want to be disruptive but need some help [18:09] ghoti: well of course not, because its looking at one location and seeing "oh no file there" [18:09] ghoti: ah yes. when the full path is present there is no delay even when the command can not be found [18:09] so it's a PATH issue? [18:09] Apaxis: I realize this. I was differentiating from when the $PATH is being searched. [18:09] his problem exists soimewhere in the searching of the PATH, internal aliases or functions or somewhere else [18:09] BloodElf - I'm sorry you have to wait 0.5 seconds when you mistype a command. I hope, in time, you can get over it. [18:10] ghoti: Apaxis: i had no such issue before with other linux distros [18:10] hi can somebody help me with cpufreq-selector?.. I alway receives the error "no cpufreg support".. [18:10] What are io abd subsystems? [18:10] r3dux: it's actually 1 second :) [18:10] hehe, worse!! [18:10] and the load of my machine is low [18:10] HELLO any idea where I could find help with the ubuntu-netbook-remix? [18:10] what kind of cpu are you on? [18:10] kronopio: 1) don't worry! 2) use common sense 3) always type the name of the person, you are talking to, in the line (so their IRC clients can make a "beep" 4) always write it in one single line 5) dont ask the same thing over and over again 6) dont ask to ask, just ask. 7) How can we help you? [18:10] so it's not a overloaded machine issue [18:10] so everyoe here is a volunteer? [18:10] hello [18:10] BloodElf: Apaxis: ActionParsnip: There is no such delay when using another shell such as zsh. I now am blaming /bin/bash for the delay [18:10] kronopio: Yes [18:10] hello [18:10] Code_Bleu: ls -ltr /var/lib/dpkg/info/ #note dates [in relationship to date of install] ... I think... [18:10] i have intel centrino M 1,8 ghz [18:10] And pick a new nick, kronopio. [18:10] !subsystem [18:10] Sorry, I don't know anything about subsystem [18:10] You're cramping my style. [18:11] kronopio: yes. [18:11] !io [18:11] Sorry, I don't know anything about io [18:11] eesh [18:11] i wanted to try beryl but there website isnt working right , does anyone know if its in packet manager . i didnt see it [18:11] i need irc-bot which have translate function. eggdrop is good for me? [18:11] kronopio: use the TAB key for nick name auto completion. I wont see, if youre talking to me, if you dont type my name, because i am not constatnly looking at the chat. [18:11] burntresistor: yes, there is a package for debian/ubuntu [18:12] burntresistor: but actually compiz is more recent than beryl [18:12] Or take it to PM. [18:12] anybody here who's using xaralx??? i've installed xaralx and noticed that animation option is not included in the package??? how do i enable this? please help [18:12] BloodElf: by default, ubuntu bash searches a database for commands that don't exist on path, probably leading to the delay. if full path is typed, it doesn't do it. pkg name is command-not-found [18:12] hi - i'm trying to get some usb to serial stuff to work. modprobe usbserial gives me a no such module error. did it change/move or something? any help would be appreciated [18:12] Instead of, you know, giving him a lesson in the main window. [18:12] i have run into a trouble, can anybody help? [18:12] !ask | k03chandra [18:12] k03chandra: 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. :-) [18:13] robdig: thank you. that put light on the issue [18:13] please [18:13] BloodElf: np [18:13] hello [18:13] robdig: any ideas how can i disable this? [18:13] i have installed a broken package [18:13] k03chandra: how can we help you. [18:13] BloodElf: apt-get remove command-not-found :) [18:13] BloodElf: let me check [18:13] bloodelf: id recommend uninstalling that [18:13] k03chandra: apt-get -f install [18:13] now i try to install new package it says system has broken packages [18:13] what does it mean to tab someone [18:14] but it asks to remove around 1200 packages [18:14] tab [18:14] hi [18:14] hello? [18:14] it says i have compiz already installed is that the 3d manager that just animated the windows a little by bending them when moving is there a way to change the appearance completely beryl had a picture of a cube [18:14] how can i open .mdb file with openoffic in jaunty? [18:14] Hi all, I just convert my file-system to Ext4 -- is it true the old files which created on Ext3 not benefit from new Ext4 ? [18:14] it says removing these packages will left my system unusable [18:15] burntresistor: hold alt and move your mouse [18:15] hmw: like this? [18:15] Geine: ive never heard that.. and i dont see why that would be true [18:15] anyone knows which nvidia driver is a working one for ubuntu?\ [18:15] burntresistor: try dragging the desktop with the middle button of your mouse [18:15] broken package = g++ [18:15] burntresistor: or ctrl+alt, i dont remember [18:15] or what he said [18:15] lazerman: the 180 version i think works on my 8800gtsxxx [18:15] hmw: hello [18:15] !find nvidia [18:15] Found: nvidia-173-modaliases, nvidia-180-modaliases, nvidia-71-modaliases, nvidia-96-modaliases, nvidia-common (and 17 others) [18:15] burntresistor: apt-get install compizconfig-settings-manager [18:16] my cpufreq-selector gives me the error "no cpufreq support"... I already installed gnome-applets.. and I have Ubuntu 9.4... and changed in the console "sudo chmod +s /usr/bin/cpufreq-selector"... but I can't install the cpu controll gnome-applet... I have a Intel Centrino M 1,8Ghz cpu [18:16] Dr_Willis, I see this from the atrical which help me to convert the file system but they not put any more details about this issue [18:16] Dr Willis so 180 should work on the most ? [18:16] Geine, yes it is true. extents is only enabled on newly created files [18:16] lazerman: depending on the card.. it depends on what package to use. [18:16] what do 'extents' actually do then.. and what if you just 'touch' a file? :) [18:16] help me pleae !!! [18:16] lazerman: not really.. it may or may not. [18:16] i used nvidia-glx-96 first via synaptic, but it caused black screen [18:16] i didn't try 180 yet [18:16] k03chandra, read mans [18:17] lazerman: my card is a bit older now.. so try them all i guess [18:17] k03chandra, what happen? [18:17] great. apt-get remove command-not-found fixed the issue :D [18:17] usser, if I do touch for the old files is this will fix it? [18:17] i installed broken g++ package [18:17] k03chandra:what's the problem/error? [18:17] kronopio: hi. [18:17] ok [18:17] I like the 'command-not-found' stuff :) [18:17] and removing it will remove 1200 packages [18:17] one of them should work?! [18:17] Dr_Willis: how does it help you? [18:17] k03chandra, remove it and install stable version [18:17] what should i do? [18:17] Dr_Willis: does it recommend packages if you type an unknown command? [18:17] Geine, the fix they suggest is move all your files back/forth, from live cd [18:18] Apaxis: it rembneds me what i need to install when i forget. [18:18] k03chandra, remove it without any dependencies [18:18] Apaxis: exactly [18:18] what's the command to inject something into syslog? like for example on webmin you can do a command at the end of a backup and I want it to add a entry in syslog saying something like "backup of /home completed on May 2nd 2009 10:16AM" [18:18] cool, not too shabby then i guess [18:18] how i do tht? [18:18] Apaxis: --> macs [18:18] The program 'emacs' can be found in the following packages: * emacs22 [18:18] and so on... [18:18] k03chandra, how you install g++ ? [18:18] oops typo :) [18:18] Dr_Willis: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. [18:18] .deb file [18:18] nice [18:18] sudo apt-get install g++ ? [18:18] wie is er nederlands????????? [18:19] Apaxis: on of the things ubuntu has that ive never seen in other disrtos. [18:19] usser, move it to different location? [18:19] Someone asked "how can i open .mdb file". That person was more than likely sent the database file rather than the intended document. It is the sender's mistake. [18:19] Apaxis: and ubutnus tab-completion is very very well done [18:19] from a .deb file [18:19] Geine, yes. [18:19] master: #ubuntu-nl [18:19] k03chandra, what do you mean "from .deb file" [18:19] Someone know why my fullscreen applications get windowed after a while, and I have to minimize them then maximize again to make it fullscreen? [18:19] it was a .deb package [18:19] Dr_Willis: most distros dont have it in the bashrc but you can add . /etc/bash_completion to complete all kinds of commands, i know it comes in debian just isnt in the bashrc [18:19] are here dutch guys?? [18:20] i just double clicked it [18:20] hmw_pidgin hi [18:20] Geine, theres also e4defrag, but its still in development [18:20] dimm > you're prolly better off using: sudo apt-get install buildtools [18:20] Razmanaz: Depends on the application. Some will use F11, others Ctrl-f others Ctrl-Shift-f [18:20] k03chandra, try 'man apt-get' [18:20] Apaxis: the 'settings' for bash_completon (ie the completions themselfs) are tweaked organized and well done. :) [18:20] who are dutch???? [18:20] master: join #ubuntu-nl daar zit het vol met nederlanders [18:20] motherfuckers [18:20] you are sheepfuckers?? [18:20] !ops | master [18:20] master: Help! Channel emergency!

Please leave. [18:21] usr13: thanks, I'll try that combination if it happens again [18:21] what's the command to inject something into syslog? like for example on webmin you can do a command at the end of a backup and I want it to add a entry in syslog saying something like "backup of /home completed on May 2nd 2009 10:16AM" [18:21] thanks ,dimm [18:22] Is there still a problem with gksu? I cant start an administration terminal (gksu gnome-terminal) [18:22] kronopio hi [18:22] Hi, almost all my apps that I start on my 2nd screen (separate x-screen) start on my 1st screen, like tvtime, vlc and totem. Does anybody know a solution or workaround [18:22] Razmanaz: Firefox uses F11 (like I said, some applications use other keyboard short-cuts to toggle on and off full screen mode). [18:22] hmw_pidgin [18:23] Hey, all. Ubuntu's taking an absurd amount of time to boot. I've been checking the support forums and they suggest modifying (?) some of the code. But I don't even know where to go to make changes to the code. I'm totally new at this. Help? :O [18:23] anodesni: run a single X server [18:23] anodesni: well for nvidia cards - you can set the 'primary monitor' to be the one you want. [18:23] fryguy, that's not an option [18:23] anodesni: or switch the cables. :) [18:23] eseven73: logger i believe is what you're looking for [18:23] anodesni: it probably is an option, unless you have an exotic video card [18:23] Dr_Willis, this is a bug, It used to work === oobe_ is now known as oobe [18:23] anodesni: bug with what.. nvidia? twinview? gnome? [18:23] hmw_pidgin [18:23] They even reference bootchart, but I don't have a clue with how to read it [18:23] Meinmartini: Just turn some stuff off that you don't need to load. for instance, if it's not a laptop, you can probally turn off pcmcia etc . etc. [18:23] fryguy, I have a nvidia 7600gt and it used to work [18:24] eseven73, Good question! sudo cat kernel.log + "Warning Will Robinson!"?! [18:24] Dr_Willis, I guess bug with xorg [18:24] anodesni: i did a clean install here on my nvidia 8800gtsxxx with the 180 driver - i dont see that issue really. [18:24] kronopio [18:24] kronopio you should hear a sound now [18:24] usr13: it is a laptop. But do I make changes before it boots, or after it loads? I don't know where to go [18:24] I don't [18:24] anodesni: there is plenty of information on ubuntu wiki for running dual monitors with nvidia (and ati, and other brand) cards. I'd suggest reviewing some of that stuff. [18:24] anodesni: install nvidia-glx-180 [18:24] anodesni: i think it might be a setting man [18:24] Dr_Willis, do you have a separate xscreen [18:24] Meinmartini: services-admin [18:25] happy derby everyone! [18:25] derby? [18:25] anodesni: im using twinview for 2 montiors in a wide desktop [18:25] I want to move /var/www to /home/cdavis/var/www but I keep getting permission denied access / in my apache2 error logs? I don't see any apparmor reference in the logs and I have the dir created [18:25] fryguy, You don't understand, it should start on the screen where you start the program. It used to work with all versions of linux, but the new ones like mandriva 2009.1 and ubuntu 9.04 [18:25] gnome seems to rember where the window was last at here.. and restarts it there [18:25] Dr_Willis, with twinview you can't run a program fullscreen on the 2nd monitor [18:25] k i have a bad issue [18:25] anodesni: and your question was looking for a "solution or workaround", which I provided. [18:25] anodesni: Hmm.. I can. [18:26] * Dr_Willis checks [18:26] fryguy, Of course not [18:26] i put my computer in hybernate [18:26] last night [18:26] He. I would like to submit a bug concerning xorg virtual resolution in jaunty but before, I'd really like to verify if it's not a configuration problem on my side. [18:26] Meinmartini: System > Amdinistration > Services #or something like that [18:26] usr13: I'll check after it boots...if it boots [18:26] booted it up this morning [18:26] Dr_Willis, can you run tvtime or zsnes? [18:26] now my phynox bios gave and error [18:26] anodesni: gmplayer, move video to 2nd monitor.. hit F - its fullscreen on 2nd monitor [18:26] Hi. I just built an ubuntu virtual machine so that I could install PHP4 in it for testing. Now I see that PHP4 isn't in the Jaunty repositories. ..Makes sense, I suppose. What's the last version of Ubuntu that *does* have PHP4? (for testing purposes). [18:26] aimed at keyboard/mouse [18:27] anodesni: zsnes is 32bit only... so it dont run on this 64bit system [18:27] when i remove it all no error [18:27] anodesni: never tried tv time. [18:27] Dr_Willis, I guess you didn't try openGL games etc [18:27] grub goes though [18:27] xubuntu wont load [18:27] Strav 0- just submit the problem with reproducabe instructions and let bod sort it out ;) [18:27] what can you do with Ubuntu 9.04 that you can't do with 8.04 LTS ? [18:27] i rarely play games. :) [18:27] Sebboh: if you want to test php4, consider building/installing from source. php4 is pretty ancient at this point, and I'd be surprised if any distro had packages for it [18:27] pcfreak30: could tell your bios to not stop on any errors to test [18:27] dureyes: the new gnome is faster [18:27] it does not checxk the hd every time [18:27] r3dux: yep. Considering the flow of this channel, I guess that's a better option anyway. [18:28] Dr_willis - you could always run zsnes on wine.. [18:28] dureyes, bluetooth. ext4. better wifi [18:28] fasr boot is enabled [18:28] fryguy, old versions retain their original packages in the repositories. [18:28] r3dux: or i couls use snes9x :) [18:28] dureyes: its just the life of support, the OS is identical except the jaunty one has a newer kernel [18:28] ext4 is better? [18:28] cdavis: have you tried the "sudo a2enmod userdir" commabd to enable apache2's userdir module yet ? [18:28] also i never get a boot logo cause i use a lcd [18:28] dureyes: theres reports of data loss in hard reboots [18:28] Dr_Willis, there is thar. [18:28] anodesni, try snes9x 1.51, not the one from the repos [18:28] "that" [18:28] but it stays dark blue, then no signal, the login [18:29] OMG [18:29] Kubuntu 9.04 won't connect to my Router (WPA,TKIP,PSK, Hidden SSID). Can you help me please?! [18:29] its wont go though [18:29] could someone help me with doing a clean install on my laptop? [18:29] Jack8899: consider trying wicd, i've found it to be much better for wireless connectivity than networkmanager [18:29] how can i get gedit to stop editing files in dos mode and inserting CRLF's into the file? [18:29] <`Ned> hello, if I save test1.py in /home/Ned, what do I have to type to run it? [18:29] i am using Dell vostro 1400, the audio volume is too low.....:( [18:29] anodesni, https://launchpad.net/~bearoso/+archive/ppa [18:29] gltron runs on the 2nd monitor.. but i dont see how to fullscreen it. :) [18:29] donnyw: Sure, what is your first question? [18:29] Dr_Willis, I went to a computer game museum today and played on early atari's, a virtual boy, played r-type and street fighter II in arcade cabinets... no relevance - it was just awesome =D [18:30] r3dux: :) make me feel old why dont ya! [18:30] usser, my problem is with opengl apps in general [18:30] lol [18:30] k03chandra: so open up a mixer (alsamixer for example, if you are using alsa) and increase the volume [18:30] usr13: well, I have a messed up 9.04 on my laptop currently, so I'm just trying to clean install it [18:30] any ideas [18:30] isent compiz using opengl? [18:30] r3dux: people use linux + mame + roms (bought legally) to recreate that [18:30] `Ned: python /home/Ned/test1.py should do it [18:30] donnyw: What happened? [18:30] i am using Dell vostro 1400, the audio volume is too low.....:( [18:30] Bought Legally - lolol.... Yes, I own them. I own them allllllll [18:30] usr13: but when I get to the partitioning, it just sees Vista, the 9.04 that's there, and it wants to install besides both of those [18:30] will 9.04 ever be a LTS release? [18:30] k03chandra: see my comment to you above [18:30] fryguy: can i install it from the Kubuntu CD? [18:31] dureyes: no. 9.10 will be [18:31] usr13: whereas I would prefer it replace the 9.04 that's there currently [18:31] Jack8899: no idea, this is #ubuntu, not #kubuntu [18:31] dureyes: i think the next one is, not sure [18:31] its maximum [18:31] Just delete the 9.04 partitions [18:31] * r3dux has a full MAME set, plus N64, SNES, Megadrive, C64 (115,000 roms) etc etc - I own then all ;) [18:31] thanks.... [18:31] <`Ned> jbl1, thanks [18:31] r3dux: ... err... sure.. :) heh [18:31] usr13: what's the easiest way to do that? [18:32] r3dux: what no Timex Sinclare! [18:32] its still too low :( [18:32] usser, how to mount file system from live-cd with full access ? [18:32] r3dux: no spectrum, for shame [18:32] Dr_Willis - now I feel inadequate! [18:32] Geine: use the 'mount' command [18:32] Geine: basic syntax is mount [18:32] r3dux: amiga emulators also :) [18:32] Geine, is it 9.04 live cd? [18:33] donnyw: There should be an option to manually edit the partitions, choose that. Once you've deleted the Linux partitons, that should give the partition manager the free space it wants. [18:33] fryguy, mount -t ext4 /dev/sda6 /mnt -- works but I cannot do any changes [18:33] I have the full TOSEC Amiga Set - it's a good few gig of compressed ADFs [18:33] Geine, you have to use sudo. ie sudo cp /mnt/file ~ [18:33] it's 9.04 live-cd [18:33] donnyw: But if all else fails, you can do it via CLI [18:33] Geine: for linyx filesystems you must have the proper owndership of the files/dirs.. you dont override them with mount options [18:33] Only prob is that it contains each crack by each group - so I've got 20 copies of Turrican II etc... [18:33] Geine: or use sudo.. but that then will make the files owned by root. [18:33] usr13: what's CLI? [18:33] Geine: make sure you are the correct user (or root). permissions for extX filesystems are stored at the filesystem level as uid/gid, so if your current user uid doesn't match (or you aren't root), you'll run into issues [18:33] donnyw: Command Line Interface [18:34] usr13: ah [18:34] donnyw: Ctrl-F2 === CShadowRun is now known as cshadowrun [18:34] Cool Leet Interface [18:34] so what is the work-around this? [18:34] is it possible to use some other drivers besides Nvidia? for the card GF420go? [18:34] does anyone have any ideas to get xubuntu to boot up. grub has no errors [18:34] Geine: do the work with root user permisisons.. [18:34] where I can download Woody packages [18:34] Geine: i just told you, make your uid match, or just become root [18:34] I read that uae is rubbish on linux and that e-uae is closer to the dogs nadgers, if that's of use to anyone.. [18:34] Having trouble getting Grub back after a failed Windows re-install. ---> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=7189180#post7189180 [18:35] and then run fdisk /dev/hda #where hda is the HD in question. And then p for print partitions and d for delete [18:35] JusticeZero - this is a nice easy fix [18:35] donnyw: and then run fdisk /dev/hda #where hda is the HD in question. And then p for print partitions and d for delete === cshadowrun is now known as CShadowRun [18:35] donnyw: Delete all but the one MS Windows partition at the front of the drive [18:35] JusticeZero - boot into linux, and read this http://www.sorgonet.com/linux/grubrestore/ ;) [18:36] is it? Grub tells me it can't mount the drive. [18:36] JusticeZero, it's an easy fix, promise - have a read. [18:36] where I can download Woody packages [18:36] donnyw: w to write x to quit (h for help) [18:37] nnnnqq [18:37] usr13: Thanks. It looks like I can do it using the GUI right now [18:37] hi, i cant get Jack to work for the life of me. Followed tutorials, read stuff all around the forums. I just dont get it. I'd like to use it with Ardour and Kluppe. Anyone can help? I am trying to use an M AUdio fast track pro sound card [18:37] Anyone know what {} means in bash scripting? [18:37] Hmm.. ok, that didn't give me errors. I'll see if it runs. [18:37] depends on where its used. r3 [18:37] I have a solution, just make a script with "DISPLAY=:0.1 app" where app is e.g. "tvtime" [18:37] how to change video .avi to wave? or someting that i can record to cd like audio cd :P [18:38] r3dux: give an example? check the advanced-bash-scripting guide also. [18:38] usr13: Would you advise deleting the swap partition as well? [18:38] r3dux: usually in reference to find or xargs, it refers to the current value of the argument that the corresponding command is processing [18:38] r3dux, in what context? can you paste the line? [18:38] Dr_Willis, Usually at the end of a line of code working on a bunch of files one at a time - example coming 1sec [18:38] donnyw: That is best. Use the GUI. [18:38] I asked this before but still no fix. I have no startup sound. I have no sound when playing audio files like flac. what I have is ac3 sound when playing videos files. I need some kind of trouble shooting of why I don't sound. [18:38] donnyw: Yes [18:38] r3dux: advanced-bash-scripting guide is a MUST read/print/read/keep a copy in the Loo for rereading... [18:38] :P [18:38] Hi evryone. [18:39] Dr_Willis, example: [18:39] usr13: Thanks a ton [18:39] find . -maxdepth 1 -type f -name '*.js' ! -name '*.tar' ! -name '*.tar.gz' -execdir 7zr a -si -mx9 $1.7z {} \; [18:39] * usser hehe loo [18:39] I have my home director encrypted and decrypted when I log in. Can I set /var/www to be the same way? [18:39] r3dux: see my comment to you above, i already answered [18:39] donnyw: You're welcome almost as much. [18:39] xukun: maybe your movie player is using a different sound facility. check system / preferences / sound [18:39] Dr_Willis, This compresses all files of a given type in a directory [18:39] r3dux, in find {} means the name of the file that was found [18:39] i just installed the config manager for compiz but it wont let me change settings to cube is the other selections extra and ubuntu only comes with wobbly windows [18:39] Can anyone tell me what's a keyring? [18:39] cdavis: you probably shouldn't have arbitrary locations on the filesystsem get encrypted/unencrypted when you log in/out [18:39] it kept popping up whenever I start my computer. [18:40] Linuz2009: its a password keeper utility. [18:40] Linuz2009: Just tell it a name and it will set you up. [18:40] Linuz2009: a mechanism for storing passwords, that is itself password protected (overly simplified explanation) [18:40] r3dux, ie find . -name hello.txt -exec rm {} \; {} will be substituted with hello.txt [18:40] usser, ahhh... I didn't write that one liner - I wrote a bash script to do it. See: http://r3dux.org/?p=439#comments [18:40] Linuz2009: In the cryptography sense, a keyring stores known encryption keys (and in some cases, passwords). [18:40] then why it kept popping up whenever I reboot my computer? === christian is now known as Guest99535 [18:40] where I can download Woody packages [18:40] * KiRiLoS is away: AFK [18:41] Linuz2009: because it pops up when an app accesses your stored 'passwords' you give it the master password to allow the others to access. [18:41] Linuz2009: because your computer is accessing a resource that requires your identify (ssh mount or something), and so you are getting prompted to unlock the keyring so that it can be used [18:41] Linuz2009: i just use my login password for it. [18:41] Woody ended up being called Dapper, didn't it? [18:41] fryguy: I keep some data in a mediawiki on my laptop which I want to be protected as well as my documents. How can I safely do this? [18:41] Or was it the one before dapper? [18:41] cdavis: put it in your homedir [18:41] hmw, I use xbmc which uses audo pasthrough to my receiver. In this progr. I can also play sound but no audio sound.

When i typed the command, it just disappeared. No errors or anything. But it still spinning down....just did it right now! I heard it'll ruin my hard-drive eventually (or at least shorten its life) [19:08] Lothen: 1) open a terminal 2) type: nano /boot/grub/menu.lst 3) find the first line with kernel=...ro splash quiet ... 4) change "splash quiet" to "vga=0x305" [19:08] , apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree [19:08] Linuz2009: and how large is this hard drive? I an get a normal Ubuntu install on a 4gb flash drive... [19:08] Lothen: oops [19:09] psywiped: by "there" what do you mean? [19:09] Lothen: 2) type sudo nano ... [19:09] Thanks! [19:09] !pastebin | Yanick_ [19:09] Yanick_: pastebin is a service to post multiple-lined texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu.com (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the channel topic) [19:09] keith1: then you didn't type the right command, I'd go and find the correct command. As for reducing the life span of the hard drive, it's not going ot make a meaningful impact on the MTBF of the drive so I wouldn't worry about it [19:09] Hello, I'm trying to figure out how to shred my log files since they are starting to take up a lot of room. Is there anyone that is able to help me? I'm pretty new to Ubuntu so any help would be appreciated. [19:09] alexxoid_: thank you [19:09] Dr_Willis: my filesystem said I had 65.7 GB [19:09] In rhythmbox, is it possible to change the column order? I want Location in front of Track Name [19:09] Okay thank you! [19:10] can anyone look at my dmesg dump [19:10] Linuz2009: so what yave you installed thats taking up 50+gb of space? [19:10] !pastebin > pcfreak30 [19:10] pcfreak30, please see my private message [19:10] not all columns. only some of them. I noticed [19:10] hey how do I get rid of the maximus, if I decide I want to use the regular gnome desktop and not the netbook interface?? [19:10] Dr_Willis: I don't know. [19:10] im trying to do some internet connection sharing but the device im attempting to connect say the cables arent hooked up (which they are and ive verified that they work) i think the carrier signal is not present and i have no idea why. ive done ifconfig, iptables, added route, and installed dnsmasq [19:10] Ubuntu111111: log files are located in /var/log, after a period of time a logfile gets copied and gziped for archiving, and a new one gets created, so you can move/archive any .gz file in there and recover space (although it shouldn't be that much space, since they are just compressed text files) [19:10] Linuz2009: you may want to look/explore how your drives are set up then.. instead of running sweeping progrms [19:11] pcfreak30: what kind of problem do you have? [19:11] arktvrvs: are you connecting two computers to each other directly? If so, are you using a crossover cable? [19:11] Linuz2009: start with 'df -h' output [19:11] fryguy: [19:11] mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/sdb, [19:11] missing codepage or helper program, or other error [19:11] In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try [19:11] dmesg | tail or so [19:11] elexodus: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. [19:11] ilesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on [19:11] /dev/sda5 9.2G 4.7G 4.1G 54% / [19:11] Dr_Willis: where? [19:11] Ghoti: note, with gigabit ethernet adapters, you dont need xover cables anymore [19:11] Linuz2009: at the command line [19:11] elexodus: you need to specify a partition on sdb, use fdisk to see a list [19:12] Ive used this exact same cable for the exact same purpose in the exact same way with succes in slackware [19:12] hmw: My motherboard's GbE port would disagree, but by and large, you are correct. [19:12] fryguy: Thanks for the response. I'm created a GUI launcher on my desktop for the shred command. I tried dragging the log files into the launcher, and even into the trash can, but it won't let me delete them. Why is this? [19:12] fryguy: I tried to install wicd with the command sudo apt-get install wicd. But it didnt work. Now I installed network manager, which removed network management. But it didnt install the network manager... now i dont have any network managing software installed anymore. What do i do now? [19:12] Ghoti: ic. [19:12] anyone run into any big issues using encrypted FS with LVM on ubuntu? [19:12] Ubuntu111111: because they are system files, and you need to be root to manipulate them [19:12] psywiped: here http://paste.ubuntu.com/163035/ [19:12] !sudo [19:12] sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more information. For graphical applications see !gksu (Gnome, XFCE), or !kdesudo (KDE) [19:12] You need a GBe on both ends of the thing I thought. [19:13] fryguy: Unable to open /dev/sdb [19:13] krphop: been using it with no issues for over a year [19:13] Jack8899: wicd is at wicd.sourceforge.net and there's an entire section for ubuntu right on the front page... [19:13] this is a mere 100mbit ethernet setup [19:13] http://pastebin.com/m49b5794d [19:13] Dr_Willis: most GbE adapters can step down to 100Mb if needed [19:13] Dr_Willis: both adapters need to sense the missing switch, so basically having 2 GbE is the thing you want [19:13] hi all, how to mount ext filesystme for read/write from live-cd? [19:13] Dr_Willis: okay, I see my disk space and files inside it [19:13] elexodus: so then find the right node for the device [19:13] jtaji: did you do a encrypted disk, with LVM inside, or LVM with encrypted logical volumes? [19:13] hi there, did Ubuntu switch from grub to lilo in the latest upgrade? aptitude dist-upgrade is trying to install it. [19:14] Quick "Gnome Do" question. I've installed the Window Manager Plugin, which closes windows, but how can i close the current Firefox tab with Gnome Do? Is there a plugin for that? [19:14] Lusule: known bug; check the release notes [19:14] Geine: the permissions for ext flie systems are contained in the filesystem itself, you'll ned to be a user that has a matching uid or gid, or manipulate the files as root (I told you this like a half hour ago) [19:14] krphop: encrypted disk, lvm inside [19:14] Geine: as usual, i hope you dont want to mount the CD-ROM as RW *g* - if it is an ext3, mount /dev/whatever /mnt should do [19:14] Is it possible to modify UDF iso's using Ubuntu? I've done some searching but still can't figure it out... I'm using Karmic [19:14] jtaji: i'm just concerned with how long it will take to fill my disk with random data, 500GB, how large is your disk? === zach_ is now known as Guest93563 [19:14] dkulchenko: why not just hit ctrl-w? [19:14] Ghoti: thanks [19:14] ola [19:14] hola [19:14] fryguy: well, you can close a window with alt-f4, but it's cooler with gnome do. :D [19:14] good morning/etc [19:14] Lusule: http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/releasenotes/904#Upgrades%20from%20Ubuntu%208.10%20may%20have%20lilo%20installed [19:15] como estan [19:15] Dr_Willis: after I found out what taking up most of my disk space. then how can I free up space? [19:15] fryguy, can you till me what command I have to use? [19:15] dkulchenko: alt-f4 closes the application, ctrl-w closes the tab [19:15] Geine: 'mount' [19:15] Yanick_, try /media/Data ntfs-3g force,notime 0 0 in your fstab [19:15] fryguy: k, thx [19:15] fryguy, I try but mount givne an error [19:15] krphop: just 160GB in a thinkpad [19:15] Geine: what error [19:15] what an option I have to provide to moutn === famelix__ is now known as Andrex [19:15] Linuz2009: delete the files/stuff you dont need.. IF you did a new install and are llready taking up 50+GB of space.. you got somthing really messed up.. This system is only using 6GB and ive installed quite a bit. [19:15] jtaji: how long did it take to fill that with random data? [19:15] hi [19:15] geine: depends on the file system. I suppose, you are trying to mount a windows partition? === zach__ is now known as Guest41105 [19:16] Does ecryptfs support the usage of PKCS11 security tokens? [19:16] hmw: he's mounting ext [19:16] krphop: I don't recall the process taking long at all [19:16] I can't figure out how to make it work. [19:16] fryguy: then an error is a bad sign, isnt it? [19:16] fryguy, I am trying to mount it as read/write I have the passwods [19:16] Dr_Willis: 6GB? My install's only using 3.6 [19:16] but how to do it using mount [19:16] hmw: which is why i am asking him what the error is [19:16] Ghoti: well his is using close to 60gb [19:16] http://pastebin.com/m49b5794d [19:16] Dr_Willis: I don't know what I should delete. [19:16] Geine: mount [19:16] psywiped: there was some noise, but nothing. the drive is not mounted (no error) [19:16] Dr_Willis: must be his p^Hvideo collection ;) [19:16] fryguy, I did this [19:16] Linuz2009: im betting you got somthing else going on. and not all of your drive is being used. [19:17] but it's mount it as read only [19:17] Geine: 1) the exact error message would help us, 2) maybe you didnt do it with sudo? [19:17] Geine: no it's not [19:17] Dr_Willis: then what should I do? [19:17] it's [19:17] jtaji: thanks [19:17] I mount it with sudo [19:17] Geine: it's mounted with the same permissions that are on the filesystem [19:17] Hello, I have installed Ubuntu 9.04 3 weeks ago, My sound system was running normaly but today it does not work. how do I fix it? [19:17] Linuz2009: or you got a LOT of video files somewhere.. compare 'sudo fdisk -l' and 'df -h' output to see what stuff is mounted where.. and learn the layout of your system [19:17] ubottu: I tried gksu nautilus and it opened the file browser into root. I changed over to /var/logs/ and then tried to shred one of the syslog compacted files. It wouldn't do it. I then tried to move it into the trash and it said it can't delete. [19:17] Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) [19:17] Linuz2009: theres not going to be a magical answer.. You need to figrue out where your space is going. [19:18] fryguy: Ok, I can see and edit all parts of /dev/sdb in gparted, it is split into 4 partitions. I tried fstab'ing the 4 partitians, but I keep getting the same error. [19:18] !work | fraroco2 [19:18] fraroco2: Doesn't work is a strong statement. Does it sit on the couch all day? Does it want more money? Is it on IRC all the time? Please be specific! Examples of what doesn't work tend to help too. [19:18] Linuz2009: you can also use du -chs * in verious places to see where all your space is going [19:18] Ubuntu111111, you are in a protected area you have to go in with root privglages [19:18] a [19:18] elexodus: are there filesystems on the partitions [19:19] hey i need help [19:19] !ask | karim [19:19] karim: 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. :-) [19:19] i connected a second hard drive to my pc [19:19] psywiped: how do I do that? in the link that ubottu gave me, it says I need to start it with gksu [19:19] Dr_Willis: I see three device boot [19:19] and i cannot access it [19:19] sudo mount -t ext4 /dev/sda6 /mnt -- work ok with no error but it's mount as read only [19:19] Hello, I have installed Ubuntu 9.04 3 weeks ago, My sound system was running normaly but today it does not work. how do I fix it?

[19:19] How do make the volume control change by 1% instead of 4% and how do i make the volume wheel change by 1% instead of 12% [19:19] Ubuntu111111, sudo gksu [19:20] fraroco2: have you tried checking 'alsamixer' in a terminal? [19:20] psywiped: okay, I'll try that. thanks. [19:20] Geine: ls -l /mnt; id; pastebin the output and i'll explain to you for a fourth time how uids work [19:20] two is linux and one's extended. [19:20] Linuz2009: No idea. I cant see what yoru system is like or laid out.. you may want to pastebn the output of those 2 commands and tell the CHANNEL the url of the pastebin. someone here may be able to help you figure it out. [19:20] Ghoti: the only difference between the formerly-working-setup and my setup now is a different computer with a different onboard ethernet device [19:20] karim: describe your problem [19:20] Dr_Willis: alright. [19:20] ok [19:20] one moment [19:20] !ask > karim [19:20] karim, please see my private message [19:21] Linuz2009: if you got a parttion somewhere according to 'fdisk -l' thats not mounted somewhere (see df -h) then that may be where the space is at) [19:21] Hello! Can someone help to config xorg.conf file? [19:21] afternoon all.... [19:21] fryguy: I read it, There it says to use that command. but it didnt work === chris_ is now known as PipWeed [19:21] arktvrvs: In the absence of a switch, my first thought is to try an XO cable. [19:21] for nvidia-glx-96 [19:21] mmm ok [19:21] i have connected a second hard drive (it comes from my ps3 which is linux-based) i must access it to back up my data to my primary hard drive since my ps3 is broken and thus i cant access it from there [19:21] Lothen: does the output of a simple "mount" say RO or is it just, that you cant write with lets say an editor? [19:21] it does work, you must have skipped something [19:21] fryguy: Yes, fresh install of Ubuntu 9.04 on 1st partitian. [19:21] anyone have a lexmark printer?? i'm having a problem getting it to work.. i have a lexmark x7350.. apparently there are no drivers from lexmark for linux but i've been reading other people using a diff. driver and getting it to work. i'm not able to get it to work though./ [19:21] ubuntu doesnt detect my hard drive [19:21] elexodus: sdb1?

I put in vga=0x305. Question! How do I save it though? I do not know how to save my changes nor exit GNU nano for that matter [19:22] i installed the package and nvidia-tools too, but after installation i cannot access xorg file, it says: "VALIDATION ERROR: Data incomplete in file /etc/X11/xorg.conf.

[19:23] How to do it? [19:23] Lothen: you probably started nano without sudo? [19:23] Lothen: there is help at the bottom of nano that explains how to save files [19:23] hello there!

[19:24] elexodus: now type mount by itself and find out what the filesystem actually is, and use that in fstab. and read the manpage for mount [19:25] armornick, [19:25] can anyone look at my dmesg dump. http://pastebin.com/m49b5794d [19:25] pcfreak30: what should i look for?

[19:27] tuffgong: no idea, i'm not looking at your sources [19:27] can someone help me find out my space. [19:28] Hello :) [19:28] is this correct: mount -o noexec,nouser /dev/hd5 /var [19:28] Linuz2009: you are using less then 3gb of space on a 50+GB hd.

[19:28] fryguy: Okay, so I did sudo gksu, then choose to open nautilus with root, navigated over to /var/logs/ and tried dragging syslog to the shred launcher I have. Still doesn't work. Any idea what I'm doing wrong? [19:29] armornick, ok [19:29] Linuz2009: so whats the ORIGINAL problem then? Your drives are not 'full' [19:29] all i see is lots of programs. [19:29] Dr_Willis: I want to get more space [19:29] Ubuntu111111: the shred launcher is in a different instance of nautilus so it will be run as that users permission. just do this from the command line because it's going to be a lot easier === fraroco2 is now known as fraroco [19:29] Linuz2009: 69GB not enough room for you? o.O [19:29] ubuntu comes with py 2.6 by default, how use any another python version for a moment? [19:29] Linuz2009: What are you trying to do? [19:30] Ubuntu111111: almost everything is easier from the command line [19:30] Linuz2009: err.. you are only using 3gb of your 66gb hard drive.. 4% in use... [19:30] #host [19:30] I type all that stuff and it does nothing [19:30] http://pastebin.com/d43d3521a [19:30] Dr_Willis: I thought I'm using alot of space [19:30] Linuz2009: so again whats the ORIGINAL problem then? [19:30] Anybody know the command to copy an entire partitian to another drive? Thanks in advance, [19:30] as u can see i havent added any sources that werent there with ubuntu [19:30] BleSS: this is probably helpful http://achinghead.com/archive/83/installing-multiple-versions-python/ [19:30] Anybody know the command to copy an entire partitian to another drive? Thanks in advance [19:30] I type ^X and ^0 and neither one does anything [19:30] Linuz2009: its says 4% in use.. right there... [19:30] so what is a bad source [19:30] elexodus: partimg [19:31] Also the second command in the first line tells me nothing as well [19:31] Linuz2009: If you want [or need] more space, get a larger drive. Or a second drive. [19:31] Lothen: ^ is ctrl, not the actual carat symbol [19:31] fryguy: tehehe.. I'm kinda afraid of the command line, but I'll give it a try. So what I would do is cd /var/log/. Then, "shred syslog"? [19:31] Ah! I had no way of knowing that [19:31] Ubuntu111111: no [19:31] hmw: sudo partimg [partitian1] [drive2]? [19:31] Ubuntu111111: cd /var/log; ls; and then shred each file that you want to shred [19:32] how can I create a second drive? [19:32] Linuz2009: If you want a smaller install, try Xubuntu. === chris_ is now known as pretty^princess [19:32] elexodus: you may have to install that program first. try man partimg or google. The program itself is quite easy to use (terminal, but menu oriented) [19:32] fryguy: thanks but jaunty already comes with several python distributions [19:32] hmw: cool, thanks [19:32] Linuz2009: You may have a bit of trouble creating one, but you can go to the store and buy one. [19:33] you mean a external hard drive? [19:33] BleSS: so then follow the part of the instructions that deals with manipulating both pythons at the same time [19:33] elexodus: there is a "linux rescue cd" with partimg on it somehwere on the web. You might want to burn on of those and boot it, instead of copying a "living" partition. [19:33] Linuz2009: Are you about to run out of hard drive space? [19:33] fryguy: ah okay. I'll give it at try. Thanks! [19:33] Linuz2009: why do you need mroe space when you are only using 4% of what you got... [19:33] * malex wonders if this is a good time to dist-upgrade from 8.10 to 9.04 i.e. known release glitches worked out, yet? [19:33] usr13: he's got about 70GB of space free on his drive.. [19:34] Linuz2009: whats your problem with the partition? do you want to resize it? [19:34] malex: I did a live upgrade from 8.10 to 9.04 yesterday and it worked perfectly, for what that's worth [19:34] Linuz2009: You can install an internal drive if you like, or you can just get an external drive if you prefer. It is up to you. The choice is yours. [19:34] Ghoti: yes, that's what I wanted to hear :) [19:34] No, never mind I thought there's something wrong with my computer [19:34] ^X does not exit GNU nano [19:34] is ext4 preferable to ext3 for a media where I want to store my multimedia assets data? [19:34] thanks though [19:34] malex: glad to help :) [19:35] lordmetroid: probably not [19:35] ok [19:35] When I ^o or whatever I lose the cursor [19:35] thanks [19:35] Linuz2009: what did you 'think' was wrong? get the full/empty numbers backwards? [19:35] A lot of empty folders [19:35] hi... just upgraded to jaunty - now I find nowhere in amarok where i can connect and move media to my mp3-player ---anyone knows ho to connect media players to new amarok in jaunty? [19:35] does that reduce space [19:35] on install 9.04 I selected "Keyboard with Euro symbol on 5" witch is where it is on my Vaio keyboard. How do I acces it? tnx [19:35] Linuz2009: 4kb per folder in ext filesystems [19:35] like broken folder [19:35] Lothen: after CTRL-O it asks for the file name, just hit ENTER [19:35] fryguy, armornick, http://pastebin.com/d43d3521a [19:36] hume: Amarok is a KDE app, is it not? You might get more assistance in #kubuntu if no one in here has an answer. [19:36] if thought its empty, its still using 4kb? [19:36] Didn't ask for that [19:36] as u can see i havent changed my sources at all [19:36] cursor just vanished and it stayed right where it was [19:36] Linuz2009: What you have installed is Ubuntu that is not just the operating system. Ubuntu has many many open source applications for you to use. One of them is OpenOffice, for instance, and OpenOffice takes up 200MB at least. [19:36] Linuz2009: empty is empty.. whats empty? [19:36] tuffgong: anything in sources.d [19:36] Second time it did take me to a type of file name, but would not let me edit it [19:36] Lothen: full keys to exit+save is CTRL-X, Y, ENTER [19:36] Linuz2009: yes it still uses 4k [19:36] you have to store the fact that the folder exists somehow [19:36] it takes a lot of empty folders to fill up a gb. :) [19:37] I saved it in my computer so I'll paste it into a URL for you guys to see. [19:37] fryguy, nothing in sources.d [19:37] tuffgong: and you can't apt-get update? [19:37] Dr_Disk 1.000.000/8.000 folders? [19:37] Linuz2009: Pastebin what you want us to see. [19:37] oops... 1.000.000.000/8.192 or so [19:37] fryguy, no i can update [19:37] Still frozen after doing ^0 [19:38] err my bad, it's 512 bytes on ext3 filesystems, i was getting confused with another filesystem [19:38] fryguy, i cant update my system using Update Manager [19:38] tuffgong: i don't use Update Manager, so I can't help you there [19:38] Lothen: it should blink somewhere on the bottom (3rd last line), asking for a file name [19:38] Hello [19:38] here's all the errors that I found with Klean sweeper and its a LONG list, http://paste.ubuntu.com/163046/ [19:38] I cannot scroll and there is no blinker/cursor/ After I did Ctrl - 0 it vanished [19:38] fryguy, i cant install anything using apt-get install [19:38] or purge [19:38] Lothen: it's O, not 0 [19:39] Linuz2009: i wouldent worry too much about kleansweep [19:39] Why Adobe flash player is slow in Ubuntu ? [19:39] Linuz2009: if the sytem works - leave it alone [19:39] fryguy lotharn btw. CTRL-0 (zero) does nothing on my nano [19:39] Black_Phantom: because it's proprietary closed source software that we have no control over. Try bypassing nspluginwrapper by using the native 64-bit alpha direct from adobe [19:39] Black_Phantom: because it's slow everywhere? :) [19:39] fryguy: Okay, it works. Thank you so much. I have one more question for you. For all the log files there is (logfile name) and (logfile name).0 It appears that the one without the .0 at the end is some sort of application. Can you explain what the difference between the two is? [19:39] how do you save a shoutcast stream so that vlc media player plays it automatically upon starting vlc? [19:39] sure, I'll try my best not to modify my system. [19:39] In rhythmbox, is it possible to change the column order? I want Location in front of Track Name [19:40] Lothen: you shouldnt scroll, it is the 3rd last line of your screen, not of the file. Try pressing ENTER [19:40] Ubuntu111111: no idea, i don't have logfiles like that [19:40] fryguy you mean downloading the 64-bit version ? [19:40] of Adobe flash player ? [19:40] Black_Phantom: yes [19:40] so should I uninstall Klean Sweeper? [19:40] They look the same to me. I cannot tell the difference between the two on this interface. 1 and 1 look the same. 0 and 0 look the same [19:41] But i dont have a 64-bit processor fryguy is that ok ? [19:41] fryguy: Okay, thanks again for your help. [19:41] Black_Phantom: it's not [19:41] Ubuntu111111: looks like "log rotation" to me. After a log file is getting bigger than a certain amount, it is renamed LOGFILENAME.SOMENUMBER and a new file is created [19:41] since its insignificant? [19:41] can anyone here please please help me... i get this error 'files list file for package `flex' is missing final newline' when i try to install software or update my system using Update Manager [19:41] I cant compile abgx360 gui under ubuntu 8.10, make complains about wxwidgets, i have the latest and ./configure reports the package to be okay.

If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) [19:42] alguien puede ayudarme [19:42] Where does "network manager" keep connection info/passphrases? I must back it up before upgrade to jaunty or I could loose my wifi connection at work. [19:42] !es | monik [19:42] monik: En la mayoría de canales Ubuntu se comunica en inglés. Para ayuda en Español, por favor entre en los canales #ubuntu-es o #kubuntu-es. [19:42] fryguy there is any other flash player which is 'open source' at the same time 100% compatible with Linux/Ubuntu ? [19:42] Black_Phantom: gnash [19:42] si espanol [19:42] spain [19:43] Dr_Willis: so I should uninstall Klean Sweeper and leave my system from there? [19:43] Alright! Made it out! [19:43] Linuz2009: I'm going to pass on to you some important information that applies to lots of different situations; "If it aint broke, don't fix it." Linux filesystems requre very little maintenance. It requres some, but very little. What little it does requre is done automatically for you. [19:43] i have a problem with ubunut-server [19:43] I named it menu.lst [19:43] Aha ok, thanks for your help fryguy [19:43] usr13: sure [19:43] I cannot see the taskbar at the bottom of my computer because some jerk messed up the bottom half of it cuz I got his girlfriend to dump him [19:43] hi! graphic card nVidia FX770M is compatible with ubuntu? [19:43] That is why I could not see it [19:44] when a drive to pass the initial system check on boot, where is the log file saved? [19:44] Lothen: Shouldn [19:44] Man perhaps I should avoid text console [19:44] I cannot see the bottom! [19:44] I have a problem with the sound, how I configure it? [19:44] Lothen: Shouldn't have gotten his girlfriend to dump him. [19:44] Lothen: then adjust the monitor [19:44] !sound | monik [19:44] so do you guys think I should install a anti-phishing toolbar? [19:44] monik: 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 [19:44] paolo88, yes [19:44] when a drive fails to pass the initial system check on boot, where is the log files saved?* [19:44] yes [19:44] Eh, he was a jerk. I back at him x10 anyways [19:45] je vais te pété dans la bouche put1 [19:45] Linuz2009: if you feel like you might become a victim of phishing, and don't trust the mechanisms put into browsers stock configurations, then sure [19:45] shamus: good question. Maybe the init-ram-disk? [19:45] MHz128: i must install driver or ubuntu download and install it? [19:45] !fr | One_More_Time [19:45] One_More_Time: Ce canal est en anglais uniquement. Si vous avez besoin d'aide ou voulez discuter en francais, merci de rejoindre #ubuntu-fr [19:45] paolo88, yes [19:45] paolo88: ubuntu will do it for you [19:46] fryguy: then where can I install one for linux? [19:46] vga=773 I could use instead if I am picky and like decimal instead of hexidecimal right? [19:46] you install one for your browser, not for your operating system [19:46] shamus: in either case, you should be able to access the files under /var/log anyways. Maybe the content is lost after shutdown [19:46] Theres paranoid. then theres Tinfoil-hat paranoid [19:46] fryguy: if you had no idea then I google it. [19:46] Linuz2009: take a look at firefox add-ons [19:46] farte in your nose [19:46] hmw: im not sure, In order for my machine to boot, I have to hit control-d, it's odd [19:46] Lothen: technically, it is irrelevant. I recommend to use hex, because when you use vga=ask, you will be presented hex codes only. [19:47] fryguy: ubuntu 64 bit? The gpu are will active? [19:47] shamus: sounds like you ended up in a root console [19:47] Gotcfha [19:47] paolo88: yes [19:47] shamus: like the "repair" menu entry in grub [19:47] hmw: yes I did, i just mounted this drive yesterday, and after a reboot this is what the system is doing [19:48] shamus: check your /boot/grub/menu.lst - did something mess up your boot params? [19:48] what is a root console? [19:48] hmw: nice program. When partimage creates an image, does it creat an image file that needs to be extracted, or does it directly copy the partitian? [19:48] elexodus: it can do both [19:48] hmw: hmm, I wonder which one I did. [19:48] hmw: I guess I'll know in 78 hours or so. [19:48] elexodus: just a little hint *giggles* think, _before_ you type [19:49] hmw:lol [19:49] hmw: well, it's not in the boot so I'm not exactly sure it is a grub error, it's before the login and after i chose the operating system to start, and this drive isnt for booting, there is only one partition and it is used for storage, no boots [19:49] fryguy: how can I update my mozilla browser? [19:49] sup guys [19:49] What is the difference between getting root access and using sudo? [19:49] Linuz2009: you can't (easily), you use the version that is provided for you by ubuntu [19:49] Lothen: nothing [19:49] Thought so [19:50] is it possible to mount a CUE file? [19:50] shamus: i was not thinking of a grub error, but a strange kernel parameter, something like the one, that leads to the "repair" console auto-login [19:50] fryguy: you mean I can't update it?/ [19:50] fryguy: well! I want buy a Mobile Precision M4400 with the nVidia FX770M, Intel® CoreTM 2 Duo T9400 (2.53GHz,6MB L2 Cache 1066MHz), 4GB, 800MHz DDR2 Dual Channel, 320GB Serial ATA (5400 RPM) Hard Drive, EMEA Intel Pro Wireless WI-FI 5100 (802.11a/g/Draft-n 1X2) MiniCard for Centrino 2 Label [19:50] sudo is safer [19:50] Linuz2009: right [19:50] Are there not cases though when I will want root access instead of sudo in Ubunu though? [19:50] meoblast001: What is CUE? [19:50] well not really [19:50] lothen: sometimes [19:50] usr13: similar to an ISO [19:50] fryguy: ubuntu 64 bit is compatible with this notebook? [19:50] it isn't safer in so far as security, but in far as doing something stupid [19:50] Like when? [19:50] palmje: sure [19:50] like rm -rf [19:50] paolo88: sure [19:50] hmw, yes, well where would this log file be created do you think? it said something about fsdisk [19:51] lothen: if you use su and authenticate, you stay root afterwards when using terminal [19:51] meoblast001: file filename.CUE [19:51] using sudo is just for like one thing at a time [19:51] Ah [19:51] oh and don't forget that if you don't close the terminal and someone comes up to your computer [19:51] usr13: ? [19:51] Jared: there's also sudo -i [19:51] exactly === zach_ is now known as Guest36361 [19:51] which is why startx is kind of stupid [19:51] fryguy: so ubuntu installed mozilla fox and disable the update function so the version ubuntu provide will be safe even w/o pathces? [19:51] startx; logout [19:51] fryguy: UPEK® Fingerprint Reader (Swipe) too? [19:51] ftw [19:51] patches. [19:51] i'm really digging 9.04 so far XD [19:52] paolo88: no idea [19:52] only prob is it freezes completely sometimes :\ [19:52] sudo will 'forget' that you authenticated after a while, though [19:52] meoblast001: See: http://he.fi/bchunk/ [19:52] I don't suppose anyone knows how to get ArcView working on Ubuntu? heh heh [19:52] Linuz2009: yes [19:52] what's Arcview? o.O [19:52] sounds kind of cool [19:52] www.esri.com [19:52] GIS software [19:52] fryguy: but dosen't work i can use the passwor or not? [19:52] shamus: since the file system in *nix is kind of virtual, the logs are always under /var/log. The question is, where is /var/log physically? might be the initramfs or some other sort of ram disk. [19:52] arcview is an esri product for doing gis stuff [19:53] yup [19:53] ah ok [19:53] paolo88: ? [19:53] thought it was some new sort of alt-tab thing xD [19:53] that reminds me i need to configure ringswitcher.. [19:53] lol I am not paying thousands in extensions for that [19:53] shamus: mount will tell you about mounted file systems (ram disks included) [19:53] hmw: will do [19:53] Lothen: esri is a windows only platform, so you'll need either an emulation or virtualization layer to run those products [19:53] fryguy: I downloaded the .deb package. But it didnt install either. It didn't say much, something like "an error occured". [19:54] I have a Dell Latitude D510. OpenGL applications seem to constantly flicker though. Even glxgears, the display flickers it sort of "blinks" to white and back to the glxgears display. It uses the video card: Intel Corporation Mobile 915GM/GMS/910GML Express Graphics Controller [19:54] Yeah, will wine work? [19:54] how can i remove a low level ata password? i have an hp pavillion of a friend here and he asked me to fix it, the bios utility fails scanning the drive so i wanted to run some other tools, but i always get the message that there is a low level ata passwort set and the drive is locked [19:54] fryguy: just to let you know, I install netcraft toolbar. [19:54] Lothen: yes [19:54] hmw: Ok, that wasn't going to work... How do you copy a partitian directly to a new drive? [19:54] shamus: simply "mount"... or "sudo fdisk -l" to see all partitions, your sys finds. [19:54] elexodus: use dd [19:54] fryguy: if the finger read don't work...i can use the password for login, true? [19:54] lanoxx: No [19:54] paolo88: sure [19:54] fryguy: dd? [19:54] how do I install wine from commandline? I know how to get it from the menu system, but I want to learn commandline! *laughs* [19:54] elexodus: dd [19:54] usr13, what do you mean with no? [19:54] And I don't think I'll need to install an anti-virus [19:54] How can i install SopCast on Intrepid please? [19:54] Lothen: apt-get install wine [19:54] right? [19:54] lanoxx: If you find out, let me know. [19:54] Lothen: sudo apt-get install wine-hq [19:54] elexodus: i dont know by heart. Try the man page or look through the menus. SHouldnt be hard. You may have a problem, if the partition is already mounted, but I am not certain about this [19:55] hmw: http://pastebin.ca/1410576 [19:55] so which is it? confused [19:55] heard that linux is diffcult for hackers to crack [19:55] I have interpid packages .... can i install them with one command ?? [19:55] fryguy: at the end i can buy this notebook and install ubuntu! [19:55] fryguy: so, dd would be the command? [19:55] elexodus: right [19:55] Linuz2009: no you don't need an inti-virus [19:55] Linuz2009: anti-virus* [19:55] Linuz2009: where did u herd that ? [19:55] shamus: i'd guess its located on /dev/sda4 [19:56] lanoxx: If the HD is password protected, you can only put it back in the original PC, but other than that - I dono - not much you can do. [19:56] shamus: since there is no other partition mounted to /var or /var/log, so it is in / [19:56] but there's still at least some viruses that linux weren't immune to right? [19:56] Linuz2009: no [19:56] is it possible to install KDE from a Kubuntu CD? [19:56] its in the original pc, its a hp pavilian, everything is factory default only the os is giged so i wanted to use the backup partition to bring it back but it always fails [19:56] you mean linux had no virus period? [19:57] Linuz2009: afaik, there are 2 linux viruses [19:57] OpenGL applications seem to constantly flicker though. Even glxgears, the display flickers it sort of "blinks" to white and back to the glxgears display. It uses the video card: Intel Corporation Mobile 915GM/GMS/910GML Express Graphics Controller and the laptop is a Dell Latitude D510. Can anyone help me? [19:57] just 2? [19:57] yes LOL [19:57] Linuz2009: viruses are platform dependend [19:57] there have been more than 2 [19:57] Linuz2009: It can be made easy by sloppy use. Basically, just use a good password that is hard to crack and you are safe. [19:57] heck people install windows viruses in linux [19:57] Linuz2009: You do not need anti-virus software. [19:57] hmw: which log would it be exactly in the /var/log? [19:57] * DigitalKiwi still cracks up at that ubuntu user [19:58] oh, would anyone of you tell me whats a good password? [19:58] shamus: you tell me, i dont know, why you wanted to find the logs in the beginning. !? [19:58] Linuz2009: which OS are you using ?? [19:58] http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=72598 [19:58] Ubuntu, 9.04 [19:58] I have interpid packages .... can i install them in 1 go ?? [19:58] hmw: I am sorry about that, im a bit new to linux... [19:58] Linuz2009: at least 8 characters, letters numbers and punctuation [19:58] Linuz2009: alphabumeric (upper and layer) with special characters that is as long as possible [19:59] Linuz2009: One that is not too simple. Maybe combine some numbers and maybe spell the word or name backwards or just random characters mixed with numbers. [19:59] what if I forgot the password? [19:59] fryguy: tanks! [19:59] usr13: how do you actually use that? [19:59] mine for example are all over 10 [19:59] couldn't find package wine-hq [19:59] take weeks to crack =D [19:59] shamus: don't worry, were all just beginners. Some of us are advanced beginners. And I heard, some of those beginners even hack the kernel. *g* Lets start over: What is the problem, you want to solve? [19:59] * DigitalKiwi knows, he tried [19:59] meoblast001: I do not know. Never used it. [19:59] Linuz2009: =#q"4R[%s}6T\gp is a good password xD I use an "algorithm" to generate my passwords, so they all are different like the one I typed, but I never forget them. [19:59] hmw: hahaha, that's funny [19:59] usr13: ok [20:00] hmw: Ok, so, I have a 650+GB partitian I need to make into an image so that I can expell the image into another drive. The problem being that I only have about 884GB of free space. [20:00] meoblast001: What did; file filename.CUE tell you? [20:00] elexodus: use dd and move it direct from one drive to the other [20:00] hmw: /me is not a beginner but ty for noticing [20:00] elexodus: stand by, i will install partimg and look for myself [20:00] yeah that's a good password but i want something thats I can remember. [20:00] it helps I use other stuff than ubuntu ;D [20:00] like a event or phrase. [20:00] DigitalKiwi: i am a beginner since 1982 [20:00] Hello linux users, I want to contribute in ubuntu. There is no support of voice call in pidgin. I want to work on it. Can you people guide me where should I start from ? [20:00] Linuz2009: It's still possible for you can still get back into your system even if you forget your pass [20:00] hmw: ha [20:00] In rhythmbox, is it possible to change the column order? I want Location in front of Track Name in the media library [20:00] fryguy: I downloaded the .deb package of wicd. But it didnt install either. It didn't say much, something like "an error occured". [20:00] meoblast001: filename.CUE #Where filename.CUE is the actual name of the file. [20:01] how? [20:01] slow learner? :P [20:01] fryguy: dd just isn't working for me. It just waits, and waits. I can't find any support for the command via google. [20:01] Linuz2009: a phase phrase is good too -- a long(ish) sentence that you can remember but mostly random. [20:01] by accessing the root account? [20:01] hmw: I want my disk to mount correctly, I just bought the disk yesterday, installed with the instructions provided here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=7194774 , and now receive an error about the UUID and the fdisk and that it has saved the error log in /var/log === rudle_ is now known as rudle [20:01] elexodus: read the manpage [20:01] oh no [20:01] !contribute | mudassar [20:01] mudassar: To contribute and help out with Ubuntu, see http://www.ubuntu.com/community/participate [20:01] then what would you guys recommend? Random or Logic password? [20:01] Linuz2009: just google something like "ubuntu forgot password" and you will see. It's pretty easy, it gets you a root shell and you can retype the password [20:01] thanks [20:01] i just Control+A+D'd on a screen session and screen -rd won't bring it back [20:02] I like frilly toothpicks + a year + puntuation becomes... Ilftp2007*!@ [20:02] perillu; http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/releasenotes/904 the release notes have something about your card [20:02] meoblast001: screen -RD [20:02] mudassar: check out #pidgin [20:02] Linuz2009: In Ubuntu I would use something very difficult for your root account, since you will almost never use it. [20:02] Linuz2009: the important thing is that you can remember it. within that, as random or non-dictionary worded as possible. [20:02] fryguy: there are several screens... how do i pick on.. and then how do i end it [20:02] use something very difficult for your user [20:02] since you have sudo :P [20:02] Linuz2009: but your own password should be a little easier to type and remember. === zach_ is now known as Guest93556 [20:03] ubottu : sir , i have interpid packages , is there and command or procedure so that i can install them at one go [20:03] Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) [20:03] fryguy: can't get the if, of statements right. [20:03] perillu: ubuntu doesn't use or ask for a root password by default [20:03] I didn't put any password on my root account [20:03] meoblast001: use screen -ls to get a list, and append the name to the end, or just read the manpage [20:03] ubuntu has root login disabled doesn't it? [20:03] Linuz2009: if it's so complex you have to write it down, you've defated yourself. [20:03] elexodus: dd if=/dev/inputdrive of=/dev/outputdrive [20:03] shamus: you tried to use something like "mount /dev/sdb1"? mount normally works like this: mount WHAT TOWHERE (like mount /dev/sdb1 /mnt). If you put a certain line into /etc/fstab, mount can do it without the target. Try, if you can mount it manually with mount /dev/sdb1 /mnt [20:03] Linuz2009: Ubuntu does not use root account [20:03] Linuz2009: i think i had to for cups to work from the web page. but yes, you rarely need it. [20:03] usr13: sure it does [20:03] DigitalKiwi: By default, yes [20:03] perillu: ya, that's why I told him the root should be a lot less easy to guess because he will never really need it [20:03] shamus: sudo mount of course [20:04] Can Hacker access the root account? [20:04] Linuz2009: yes [20:04] I've heard that they could [20:04] Linuz2009: Are you sure? I don't think it's even possible to not have a root account password.... [20:04] fryguy: For all practicle purposes it does not. [20:04] Linuz2009: with direct access to the machine, without encrypted drive, yes. [20:04] elexodus: how did you install partimg? [20:04] elexodus (because i cant find it) [20:04] fryguy: it just hangs... [20:04] then they can do whatever they want. [20:04] perillu: ubuntu has root account disabled by default [20:04] usr13: it doesn't use the root PASSWORD, it uses the root account for plenty of things. root account being defined as uid=0 [20:04] hmw: well, strangely, disk was mounted to /mount and not to /mnt as I have an icon on desktop and in "Places" , right now the disk is correctly mounted, but the system is trying to mount it as well to /mnt I think [20:04] Linuz2009: but then again, if i can walk up to your pc, i can steal it anyhow. [20:04] elexodus: it's not hung, it's working [20:04] hmw: apt-get install partimg [20:04] practical* [20:05] jtaji: oh really. huh, sorry didn't know. [20:05] then is there any way that I can protect my root account? [20:05] Does installing wine create any security vulnerabilities? [20:05] elexodus, does that package xist? [20:05] shamus alright, your problem seems to be related to /etc/fstab then. [20:05] somebody please answer :how can i install packages by giving an istallation loc [20:05] IndyGunFreak: it worked for me [20:05] any idea how i can get apache working after jaunty upgrade? start w/o complaint, but doesn't run. possibly a php issue? [20:05] it almost seemed like a weakness to Linux. [20:05] Lothen: are you allowing untrusted users onto your machine? [20:05] when i go into appearance and try to turn on visual effects i get "Desktop effects could not be enabled" [20:05] elexodus, hmm, never heard of it [20:05] Linuz2009: ok well I would just recommend you use something you can remember but type it like p4ssw0rd, replacing letters with numbers for example. [20:05] !info partimg [20:06] Package partimg does not exist in jaunty [20:06] not to my knowledge lol [20:06] elexodus: i have a freshly installed jaunty here, looks like i am missing some sources [20:06] Like Window's Registry. [20:06] need help with Gnome, my programs aren't showing up in my panel [20:06] fryguy: the root account is dissabled and we could go into a long discussion about it but is just easier to say that is is dissalbed. Was trying not to use up too much space here on a busy channel. [20:06] ssmy: anyting in the logs? [20:06] is Linuz2009 a troll? [20:06] hmw, no, i think he gave the wrong info.. what are you trying to install, a partition editor? [20:06] bobstro: checking again... [20:06] how can I see java.library.path var? [20:06] hmw: no problem, I'm trying to work it out with the dd command. Also, it may be apt-get install partimage [20:06] usr13: there's a difference between "skipping details" and "being wrong" [20:06] IndyGunFreak: the program "partimg" a partition image creator [20:06] ssmy: also check to see if processes are running [20:06] Linuz2009: Your root account is already protected. [20:06] what's a troll? [20:06] haha [20:06] lol [20:06] by default? [20:06] Linuz2009: You [20:06] Linuz2009: in windows you can do whatever you want pretty much no matter what user you are... so how is a root account a weakness? [20:06] yeah definitely a troll [20:06] default troll? [20:06] dno what u are talking about but the root account aint a weakness [20:07] bobstro: no, they don't . nothing. just quiet failure. [20:07] they live under bridges [20:07] perillu: that's changing, but certainly was true, yes. [20:07] elexodus: dd is not perfect, since it copies empty sectors too. YOu might even get problems with different partition sizes, if you use dd. I wish you success! [20:07] How do I find out if I have root access currently? [20:07] usr13: 'sudo id' and you'll see that the process that your shell forks for execution of the command is running as the root account. that alone should be enough evidence that the root account gets used [20:07] ssmy: try launching it from a terminal perhaps, check for errors? [20:07] I formated by external harddrive but it is being mounted so that I as a user can not manipulate the content, including adding more information [20:07] fryguy: I don't see any change in the size of the destination drive's freespace. [20:07] Lothen: can you use sudo? [20:07] fryguy: For all practicle purposes the root account is dissabled in Ubuntu. [20:07] 14:07 [FreeNode] -!- Linuz2009 [n=ubuntu20@ool-18bc3a8e.dyn.optonline.net] [20:07] 14:07 [FreeNode] -!- ircname : purple [20:07] yes [20:07] is purple default for some client? [20:07] I recognize it [20:08] bobstro: pm okay? want to paste a bit [20:08] hmw: I can't tell that it works at all. There are no empty sectors on the source disk. [20:08] elexodus: does it have to be an image, or do you just need the data from one to the other? [20:08] you know if it get hacked or anything it'll be bad for your computer since that account held the most power just like when registry is corrupted, window's damaged and then the funny thing is it can be easily accessed. [20:08] usr13: so when I edit /etc/fstab for example, how am I doing it? with magical faeries? [20:08] DigitalKiwi: Pidgin [20:08] ssmy: sure, i have a few minutes. but keep in mind, some on here are smarter than i am! [20:08] aah... its "partimage" not partimg. ( IndyGunFreak) [20:08] krphop: data from one to the other would be fine. [20:08] ah makes sense [20:08] using libpurple and all [20:08] Linuz2009: well of course. that's nothing new for any os. [20:08] hmw: my current fstab: http://pastebin.ca/1410587 [20:08] elexodus: i'd recommend rsync, then you can pick up where you left off if something happens [20:08] fryguy: You can re-activate it just by giving root a password, but if you do that it would be best to remove sudo priviledges to user when you do. [20:09] elexodus: can you put both drives in the same system for the data transfer? [20:09] usr13: the file is owned by root, therefore it can only be edited by root (unless you chmod or chown first, but that is a bit outside the scope of this argument, however it's worth mentioning) [20:09] krphop: yes, one is a RAID array, the other is a single sata. [20:09] My external harddrive is being mounted with the owner of root [20:09] Linuz2009: use good passwords, don't do stupid things, and linux is by default more secure than windows...at this time [20:09] Linuz2009: you do have a firewall though. Just don't open up all your ports and you should be fine. [20:09] Can I change that to the currently logged in user? [20:09] fryguy: You are using super-user [sudo] but are not logging into the root account. This discussion is OT, and we should take it to OT channel. [20:09] where's that firewall? [20:09] elexodus: yeah, def do rsync then, just incase something happens you can start the rsync again, and it will pick up where it left off [20:09] need help with Gnome, my programs aren't showing up in my panel [20:10] is there a OT channel? :P [20:10] onoes [20:10] usr13: i never said anything about logging into the root account. You should review the source code for sudo some time and see how it actually works. [20:10] Ziw: #ubuntu-offtopic? #defocus? [20:10] elexodus: something like 'rsync -av --progress --stats /sourcedir /destdir [20:10] Linux had a firewall? [20:10] Alright! I got wine installed, but no idea how to use it? Anyone have any idea how I would install ArcView from CD using wine? [20:10] Linuz2009: it's already running by default, but if you want to view it, check if you have "firestarter" if not then do "sudo apt-get install firestarter" in a terminal. [20:10] Linuz2009: You don't have a firewall installed by default, but you can install one. [20:10] grawity: thanks [20:10] elexodus: just read the man page. Looks like partimage cannot directly copy between partitions. :/ [20:10] fryguy: I know how sudo works. [20:10] usr13: apparently not since you are claiming it doesn't use the root account [20:11] Linuz2009: it's built in. The module is named "ipfilter". [20:11] so why I need a firewall is it for hackers? [20:11] I have interpid packages .... can i install them all at once [20:11] "* Not starting GNOME Display Manager (dwm); it is not the default display manager." i dont have any other display managers o.o [20:11] elexodus: i've used rsync to literally copy hundreds of terabytes of data, takes a LONG time to generate file lists, but it works [20:11] usr13: when in fact there are multiple locations in the source code where it forks a process as uid=0 (which is the root account) [20:11] Linuz2009: do you lock your doors? [20:11] fryguy: Ok, I concede. The root account exists on a Ubuntu - so how do you explain to someone that you can not log into root? [20:11] ubuntu does not have iptables by default? [20:11] alright good enough [20:11] usr13: well... you can. [20:11] guys, why is evolution the default email client when u install ubuntu, not thunderbird? any idea? [20:11] DigitalKiwi: iptables is just the user interface for ipfilter [20:11] fryguy: Or should you just tell them to do; sudo root passwd [20:11] krphop: I get the error: skipping non-regular file [Source partitian] [20:11] usr13: I don't, i explain to them that password logins via a getty are disabled by default in ubuntu === AskHL_ is now known as AskHL [20:12] need help with Gnome, my programs aren't showing up in my panel [20:12] !thunderbird [20:12] Thunderbird is a free email client, capable of close cooperation with Firefox (both by the Mozilla Foundation). To make Thunderbird links open in Firefox, see http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=60427 [20:12] elexodus: you'll have ot mount both source and dest partitions first [20:12] anybody with Intrepid or Jaunty having problems with any of these chipsets / graphics... (1) G965 + GMA X3000 (2) G41 + GMA 4500 (3) G45 + GMA 4500HD (4) GeForce 9300 / nForce 730i (5) GeForce 9400 ??? [20:12] gharz: because evolution is part of Gnome [20:12] fryguy: Which is the same thing as telling them that root is dissabled. [20:12] usr13: there's other ways to use root than via a tty and password challenge-response [20:12] nibsa1242: i see.... thanks for the info. === hume_ is now known as hume [20:12] "* Not starting GNOME Display Manager (dwm); it is not the default display manager." i dont have any other display managers O_o help please [20:12] I created a password with 7 letters and 3 numbers [20:12] gharz: you are welcome to change it to your preferred program [20:12] Linuz2009 DigitalKiwi: btw. Firestarter is a nice Gnome-UI for the firewall [20:13] usr13: which is in fact the only thing that ubuntu does to "disable the root account", it removes the ability to login to root via a password challenge-response in a tty [20:13] hmw: my current fstab: http://pastebin.ca/1410587 [20:13] * DigitalKiwi doesn't use gnome [20:13] yuck [20:13] nibsa1242: what programs aren't showing up on your panel? You can reset your gnome to the defaults set by Ubuntu if you want. [20:13] (or kde before you say crap) [20:13] shamus: stand by [20:13] !root | usr13 we usually explain it like this [20:13] usr13 we usually explain it like this: Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth... there is no root password. Then you will see that it is 'sudo' that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo [20:13] fryguy: sudo uses the root account. [20:13] sudo passwd :P [20:14] hello. anyone care to tell me where the ed2k application (path to where the file is installed on your system) is located? i cant find the right file so it can handle the ed2k links from firefox. [20:14] hehe, could you enable root login without having to change the password? [20:14] I have Kubuntu 9.04 installed into my Vista partition with wubi. I unintentionally uninstalled the network manager. What can I do now? [20:14] that would be hilarious [20:14] DigitalKiwi: sure [20:14] do ya'll get a bunch of people that do that? [20:14] perillu: when I open a program ( such as x-chat or FireFox ) its not in the panel where open programs are displayed, so I have to alt+tab to change to a minimized program. [20:14] perillu how to I reset it? [20:14] How do I make an automounting of a volume to not be mounted with a root owner? [20:14] Hi [20:14] i did sudo passwd and put the same password back in. now i can su like a champ [20:14] DigitalKiwi: sudo will give you a login shell if you want via sudo -i, or you can use ssh gssapi or publickey authentication, there's probably other ways but i don't feel like sharing those [20:15] Do I need a firewall with Ubuntu? [20:15] Lothen: no [20:15] why does the text install off the alt disk take SOO much longer than the normal install? [20:15] krphop: still getting the same error message after making sure each was mounted. "sudo rsync /dev/sda4 /dev/sdb3" [20:15] Why is that? [20:15] shamus: does the directory /mnt/storage exists and has it the right file permissions? pastebin me the output of "ls -l /mnt" (you might apt-get the program pastebinit) [20:15] Need help my machine is rooted. I want ubuntu but have kubuntu. How do i get ubuntu and whipe of kubuntu? [20:15] elexodus: you have to rsync the mounted directories, not the partitions on the drive [20:15] fryguy: As it says, sudo grants you access to root priviledges but logging into the root account is dissabled in Ubuntu, so what I said (while a bit brief) was accurate. [20:15] i've started using evolution and i want to install thunderbird. i'm planning to remove/purge evolution... how do i complete remove evolution from my system including the downloaded emails ? [20:15] can anyone help? i can't get into GDM without fixing [20:15] pleaz someone help [20:15] does apt-get --purge remove evolution work on this? [20:15] FRENCH: Install Kubuntu, then go to terminal, and install the ubuntu-desktop package. [20:15] FRENCH, easiest way, would be to download ubuntu and install it [20:15] usr13: logging in via a tty is disabled, obtaining a login shell (with an entry in wtmp) is not [20:15] no gdm = no display, so i have to stick with irssi on a tty [20:16] kk cheers [20:16] nibsa1242: oh, before you reset (because that will reset all gnome settings) just try to right-click on your panel and click "add to panel" and select "Window List" at the very bottom. and click add. See if that works, if it doesn't I'll tell you how to reset. [20:16] fryguy: Oh suer sudo - [20:16] FRENCH, hy don' you just download the ubuntu iso and use it. [20:16] IndyGunFreak will that whipe of kde totally? [20:16] sure* [20:16] ok thanks [20:16] if you reinstall w/ the ubuntu CD?.. if you tell it to, yes [20:16] OpenGL applications seem to constantly flicker though. Even glxgears, the display flickers it sort of "blinks" to white and back to the glxgears display. It uses the video card: Intel Corporation Mobile 915GM/GMS/910GML Express Graphics Controller and the laptop is a Dell Latitude D510. Can anyone help me? [20:16] FRENCH: make sure, you select to format the partition, when you reinstall. [20:16] I've heard ubuntu ultimate edition, can elaborate on that? [20:16] perillu: disable compiz [20:16] "* Not starting GNOME Display Manager (dwm); it is not the default display manager." i dont have any other display managers o.o [20:16] hmw: http://pastebin.ca/1410593 [20:17] perillu that fixed it [20:17] I have Kubuntu 9.04 installed into my Vista partition with wubi. I unintentionally uninstalled the network manager. What can I do now? [20:17] I've heard that edition had everything well almost [20:17] oops not dwm, i mean gdm [20:17] "* Not starting GNOME Display Manager (gdm); it is not the default display manager." i dont have any other display managers o.o [20:17] its pretty nice too [20:17] perillu: are you on 9.04?

I got wine installed, but no idea how to use it? Anyone have any idea how I would install ArcView from CD using wine? [20:17] shamus: is that so? [20:17] is the latest version of gnome shipped with the new ubuntu 9.04 [20:17] nibsa1242: yes [20:18] racecar56: that did it, thanks [20:18] Lothen: durr... just run the file with the .exe at the end of its name [20:18] Klone: gnome 2.6 [20:18] Lothen: first run wineconfig, then browse/explore to the setup file on the cd.. you should just be able to double-click it [20:18] is that the newest version? [20:18] perillu: yw, i have another comp that does the same [20:18] hmw: drive is mounted to /mount, not mnt, drive cant be mounted twice, the problem is the error I get about the UUID on boot [20:18] krphop: tried that: [20:18] elexodus@HappyTrees:~$ sudo rsync /media/sda4 /media/VaginaGentium [20:18] skipping directory /media/sda4 [20:18] Klone: gnome 2.26.1 i mean [20:18] Klone: why are you asking? [20:18] I thought exes could not run in Ubuntu [20:18] fryguy: Sorry, I meant to say: sudo su - [20:18] perillu: I think I read there were some issues w/ Intel graphics and 9.04. Don't know much about them, but sounds like that might be your issue. [20:18] lotharn: you can with wine [20:18] wine supports it. [20:19] elexodus: you didnt use my command. I said 'rsync -av --progress --stats /source /dest' [20:19] is there a streaming program for ubuntu? [20:19] hmw: gnome 2.6? do you mean 2.26 or you literally meant 2.6 (which is even older than 4.10) [20:19] shamus: /mount sounds really strange [20:19] Klone: gnome 2.26.1 i mean [20:19] like movies/music? [20:19] hmw: o [20:19] nibsa1242: oh, what racecar56 said fixed it though, I just had to disable compiz [20:19] fryguy: But, again, for all practicle purposes, it's easier to just say that the root account has been dissabled.

It makes it much easier for people to see when you are talking to them. [20:20] hey whiter [20:20] hmw: mkdir /mount [20:20] im sure ive seen /mount [20:20] tada [20:20] shamus: auto.-mounts usually occur in /media [20:20] on slack or fbsd [20:20] also, why does the alternate cd use lilo instead of grub? [20:20] DigitalKiwi: look at his fstab: http://pastebin.ca/1410587 [20:21] hmw: yeah mounts are supposed to go to /media, but this is in /mount, I can fix that now [20:21] ok, i wish to get the splash screen working on my vizio lcd. ubuntu wont do it. the setting/resolution is properly set but it wont go [20:21] shamus: i see a syntax error: rthere is a " missing in the last line of your fstab [20:21] i have a question... well two. firstly, i have a toshiba satilite p205-s7476 with an intel GM965/GL960 graphics controller... i try to turn on desktop effects but it tells me "desktop effects cannot be enabled" [20:21] hmw: what is your point [20:21] Hi.

[20:21] second question, i also have an iphone that i want to use with my computer, would that be possible at all? [20:21] whiter: that card is blacklisted from desktop effects because the drivers don't support 3d accel correctly i think [20:21] my point was that just because you haven't seen it doesn't mean they aren't ever there [20:22] hi [20:22] shamus: UUID="72380a61-4046-4e6a-b919-7be9f6c12eb4 /mnt/storage ext4 defaults 0 2 ... should be UUID="72380a61-4046-4e6a-b919-7be9f6c12eb4" /mnt/storage ext4 defaults 0 2 [20:22] whiter: you'd need to get itunes installed via wine and pass through usb to it [20:22] How do I put a package available in sid into my lp ppa?

[20:25] shamus: i assume, it is just a data storage. if no program accesses it, you can safely remount it. [20:25] Why is Brasero the default burning software instead of just letting GNOME do it?? Its taking like 40mins to burn a DVD image instead of 15mins now [20:26] how do i install the open source drivers for ati radeon cards? [20:26] growisofs [20:26] hmw: will reboot now, and I will write down the error if it occurs again, thanks [20:26] growisofs -dvd-compat -Z /dev/dvd=file.iso [20:26] shamus: i'll be here for another 30 minutes. [20:26] When I try to browse the CD I get an Unable to mount location message. Can't mount file. How do I fix this? [20:26] i have 125MB free (-/+ bufffers/cache second number), but see 5MB of swap usage, how can I tell what's using the swap? [20:26] arktvrvs is that directed towards me? [20:26] If you wish. [20:26] WIGGMPk: strange it seems to have been removed in 9.04 [20:27] how do I get the webcam the work on Im and stuff [20:27] !webcam [20:27] WIGGMPk: write to disc... for an .iso is still present [20:27] Instructions for using webcams with Ubuntu can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Webcam - Supported cams: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsMultimediaWebCameras [20:27] quizquestion: any way to extract/use a image from partimage beside using partimage to restore it to a HDD? [20:27] arktvrvs: Its a yes or no question... Are you saying this is a solution to not using Braerso? [20:27] is the person that was helping me with my screen resolution yesterday here today? [20:27] WIGGMPk: it is a way to burn dvd isos without brasero, yes. [20:27] KnoppixNoob: i wouldnt imagine so, partimage is simple to use bro [20:27] jtaji: aye it is.. I have it set to auto open the folder instead of software once a blank dvd is put in.. but write to disc still brings up Brasero [20:28] ActionParsnip: well yes, my prob is that I don't have a empty HDD to restore all data. [20:28] WIGGMPk: so it does [20:28] When I go to click on the CD-RW drive I get a cannot mount location. Can't mount file? How do I fix this? I know nothing about mounting [20:28] beatman_ if youre using skype, you need a video4linux compatibility thingy.... i'll look it up [20:28] i hooked up a kvm and now my screen is set to a res of 800x600 [20:28] WIGGMPk: guess it was decided to use brasero by default [20:28] how do i add mode resolutions? [20:29] arktvrvs: you are missing the point of my statement.. I have brasero installed of course.. but set my blank dvd's to open folder instead of brasero.. so when I drag + drop an image to the blank folder.. and select write to disc.. it should, like usual, ask me to write it from the image or not.. but instead it uses brasero [20:29] hmw: that fixed the problem, thank you very much [20:29] anyone here running latest world of warcraft? Trying to run it with wine but get big error message [20:29] usr13: is Linux immune to ALL malicious software? [20:29] shamus: great & yw!

I want to control a netbook (1024x600) from a desktop (1440x900) using the full desktop resolution? SSH is setup already. Any ideas? [20:29] any help on my splash screen [20:29] When I go to click on the CD-RW drive I get a cannot mount location. Can't mount file? How do I fix this? I know nothing about mounting [20:29] jtaji: I would say im not complaining, but thats exactly what I am doing... 15-20mins to write a disc image to a DVD compared to 40+ mins is just plain retarded [20:29] shamus: you might find this interesting: http://www.pathname.com/fhs/ [20:30] WIGGMPk: so the question is why doesn't brasero work well for you [20:30] use k3b [20:30] jtaji: it works.. but not effectivly [20:30] hmw: thanks, will read [20:30] WIGGMPk: yes I understand the problem, I'm wondering why you have the problem [20:30] WIGGMPk: I never had a problem with brasero [20:30] jtaji: I should have to troubleshoot software problems... when nothing to begin with was broke... I have Brasero and have had it since Gutsy, but to force me to use it upsets me [20:31] KnoppixNoob: then backup the image to something instead you do [20:31] jtaji: shouldn't* [20:31] When I go to click on the CD-RW drive I get a cannot mount location. Can't mount file? How do I fix this? I know nothing about mounting [20:31] hmw: is there any way to scan for bad sectors of a drive in ubuntu? it's a new drive and I just want to make sure it's perfect before copying 700gb of data to it [20:32] hmw: pulseaudio stuttering usually can be solved by changing some values in /etc/pulse/daemon.conf --> look at http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=4928900 appendix B (default-fragments & default-fragment-size-msecs) [20:32] how do i add mode screen resolutions? [20:32] jtaji: I use it to compile data DVD/CD with multi things on them.. but I mean seriously.. why make it the defacto standard [20:32] beatman_ the command, i have in a shell script to start skype with webcam is: #/bin/bash LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/libv4l/v4l1compat.so skype ... i just dont know, where i got that v4l1compat.so, still looking [20:32] my KVM screwed my screen up [20:32] glitsj16: cool, thanks [20:32] WIGGMPk: as I said, my guess is there's only so much room on the default install, they try to only include one of everything... if you have a brasero bug you should report it [20:33] !info nautilus-cd-burner | WIGGMPk [20:33] WIGGMPk: nautilus-cd-burner (source: nautilus-cd-burner): CD Burning front-end for Nautilus.

[20:35] whiter: you can try finding a different driver, but yes in all likelihood you won't have desktop effects [20:35] shamus: i dont know for sure, but i think fsck can do it. man fsck [20:36] tragic [20:36] I am using wine to install ArcView. I am trying to browse the installation CD and I get a can't mount file error when I try to browse/get in it [20:36] whiter: what card?

Im gonna go sulk and eventually get over it [20:36] Does the file backup manager back up your firefox profile settings as well? [20:36] hmw: use the manufacturer's tools [20:36] Lothen: do you have a second cd drive? [20:36] no [20:37] whiter: i think i have the same one, it just doesnt hagve the nuts to do it [20:37] fryguy: not funny. a hard drive comes without a setup cd usually *g* there is a native linux tool for that. [20:37] I cannot believe I can do something as simple as look on my cd [20:37] elexodus: sounds like you may have some corrupt data>? [20:37] bah that went all wrong lol [20:37] hmw: there probably is, and it is recommended to use the manufacturer's tools for the job [20:37] Apaxis: oh well i can live without them [20:37] hmw: the manufacturer's provide their own tools for a reason [20:37] wither: Apaxis: http://www.ubuntugeek.com/intel-graphics-performance-guide-for-ubuntu-904-jaunty-users.html has some things you can try [20:37] draginx: does it back up your entire home directory? if yes then yes [20:37] i couldn't even get windows to install on this laptop [20:38] whiter: same, next laptop i buy ill be shopping for hardware compatibility [20:38] Hey everybody.

[20:40] Apaxis: bleh, i got the computer free i can't expect too much [20:40] glitsj16: should I install the security updates THEN the distro version upgrade or just do the distro upgrade? [20:40] PROject-Emerald: you can upgrade just fine, but it would be quicker easier to just install 9.04 if you just installed 8.04 [20:40] This is a physical card that you'll receive in your mailbox and its the ultimate barrier to protect your account as well as your hard earned money. [20:40] PROject-Emerald: always do all possible upgrades yes before dist-upgrade [20:40] PROject-Emerald: apply any updates before doing the distro upgrade [20:41] hmw: too lazy to google for "seagate tools download" (for example) instead of "bad block test linux" (example)? Strnage [20:41] After you've received your card, activate it and choose your protection level.

[20:41] i think so [20:42] fryguy: well... i dont like to use google at all very much. Do you know, if there are tools for linux? or are they DOS disks/windows progs? [20:42] Ok. I'm just gonna DL 9.04 and mount to a disk. [20:42] Has anybody here worked with awstats?

[20:42] elexodus: do you have permissions? maybe you'll have to sudo the command [20:42] hmw: all of the tools I use are boot from CD tools, since the manufacturer makes the asusmption that it's the only drive you have [20:42] hmw: how do i get vlc to record from my webcam? [20:43] yowshi: have you tried vlc? [20:43] m4rk: ;lol === paradox is now known as Guest49525 [20:43] enissay_: do other players freeze?

[20:56] fryguy, ok [20:56] speaking of launchpad, why is that site so slow all the time? [20:56] eseven73: because a billion people hit it every second [20:56] Trying to install unr on my eee 1000, but the integ. check says "errors found in 2 files"... yet it works as a live OS and the md5sum on the .img is correct. I've tried dd'ing the img to the usb drive twice. What should I do next? [20:56] can nobody help me with this bug? [20:56] ActionParsnip: you know of any webcam recording programmes other then cheese? [20:56] yowshi: what program did you try to start with that preload?

[20:57] i am using the terminal for the first time [20:57] _CommandeR_: and then it restarts [20:57] how can I get it to tell me my password [20:57] <_CommandeR_> fryguy, But how do you get a new xorg.conf file [20:57] kronopio: you can't [20:57] ok [20:57] <_CommandeR_> fryguy, like a reset of all settings [20:57] _CommandeR_: xorg.conf is located in /etc/X11/xorg.conf [20:57] i have to reinstall [20:57] _CommandeR_: dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg [20:57] ActionParsnip, thats the first client with this "feature" [20:58] can I do that from te net directly? [20:58] liz: try installing linux-backports-modules-jaunty (then reboot) [20:58] ActionParsnip: ...huh? [20:58] j #barcelona [20:58] fryguy, ok cause it cant be my connection, I got 25 mb/s download cable internet, and I know it's not my java/flash/browser, Id just think Ubuntu would have better/more servers to handle the launchpad stress [20:58] kronopio: you need to boot to something (livecd most likely) to reinstall [20:58] ActionParsnip: thats what I try to do... I use just an imagefile, mounted via a loop-device. [20:58] holaaaa [20:58] I'm having sound trouble. I have an Acer Aspire X1700. My sound system is plugged in via the optical audio cable on the back. I can get sound if I plug in a standard pair of headphones to the front, but I can't get my sound system to work. How might I fix this problem? [20:59] no hay nadieee [20:59] tdizzy: make sure you have enabled the digital output in the mixer (IEC 758, forget the number) [20:59] can I create a livecd? [20:59] jtaji : is there a method u can use to check if u can use compiz in jaunty using the free drivers [20:59] !es | mar [20:59] mar: En la mayoría de canales Ubuntu se comunica en inglés. Para ayuda en Español, por favor entre en los canales #ubuntu-es o #kubuntu-es. [20:59] kronopio: www.ubuntu.com, download and burn one [20:59] hi, why isn't goubuntu in newest release? :P [20:59] * D3f0 is away: Ausente por el momento [20:59] hell yea [20:59] i need some help configuring xorg server, my fresh installed ubuntu jaunty dont detect my correct xserver resolution.. anyone can help me? [20:59] yvan300: for intel? what chipset? [21:00] vlitzer: add the resolution line to /etc/X11/xorg.conf [21:00] Let me ask it this way: how can I verify the usb drive contains exactly what it should after the dd? [21:00] jtaji: ati raedon 200 [21:00] fryguy: done that and still dont work [21:00] vlitzer: what driver are you using [21:00] yvan300: oh, no idea [21:00] yowshi: your webcam might not be supported, i would look it up, but i got to leave. Try to find a compatibility list; something in combination with v4l. also google for the line, lsusb gives you. Maybe gspca might be a working alternative. Good luck! [21:00] fryguy: vesa default, its an old computer [21:00] vlitzer: vesa maxes out at 640x480 [21:01] fryguy: mmmm and how i change the default driver? [21:01] vlitzer: change the driver line in /etc/X11/xorg.conf === TuxPurple_ is now known as TuxPurple [21:01] yowshi: have you seen/tried any of the things mentioned at http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Jaunty#WebCams yet ? [21:01] vlitzer: if ubuntu didn't detect it, then it probably doesn' thave a driver available for the card you are using, so you are likely out of luck [21:01] fryguy: :( [21:01] fryguy, how do I enable digital output? [21:01] vlitzer: you can try the vga driver, which might let you get a higher resolution [21:01] i need help, how can open you tube without hot spot [21:01] tdizzy: IEC 758 in the mixer, it's a checkbox (usually) [21:01] fryguy: ill try that [21:02] glitsj16: no wasnt aware of it will cherck now [21:02] joker_: hot spot doesn't have anything to do with youtube [21:02] hej wam [21:02] heyy everybody im a total noob when it comes to linux and this is a dumb question but how do i change the resolution of my monitor [21:02] Halabeaster54: edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf [21:02] in on xubuntu 9.04 x64 [21:02] Halabeaster54: or use xrandr [21:02] Hi [21:02] Halabeaster54: or look in system administration menu in gnome and change it there [21:02] yowshi: if you're on Intrepid, change the Jaunty bit in that url, should be very similar guidelines anyway [21:03] Halabeaster54: for xubuntu help go to #xubuntu [21:03] thx fryguy but what is gnome [21:03] theres a display setting tool in the menus also... [21:03] in our country all is looked [21:03] Halabeaster54: editing xorg.conf can be tricky with certain drivers. You might get lucky with System / Preferences / Display. [21:03] glitsj16: 2a. I must did a: 'sudo apt-get -f install' for dependencies problem with the core. what the heck does this mean [21:03] im a windows 7 gy [21:03] guy* [21:03] Halabeaster54: gnome is what ubuntu uses as it's default desktop and windowing environment [21:03] so i need a solution [21:03] I have a problem to conect to a wlan at 9.04 Is that a comon problem? [21:03] Halabeaster54: xubuntu uses xfce as it's default [21:03] ok and where is it [21:03] neuromancer: no [21:03] Halabeaster54: where is what? [21:04] where is the icon for gnome [21:04] Halabeaster54: there isn't one, you are using xubuntu, which doesn't use gnome [21:04] fryguy: it says that vga driver doesnt exists so login failed [21:04] joker_: tor perhaps? [21:04] vlitzer: probably out of luck then [21:04] what is tor [21:04] ????????? [21:05] joker_: tor stands for the onion router, and it's an anonymizing proxy service === danorsk is now known as danorsk[afk] [21:05] ok [21:05] Wat could be the problem that 9.04 can't conect to a wlan? [21:05] so then how do i change it [21:05] joker_ http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tor_(anonymity_network) [21:05] joker_: it causes your connection to get routed through several voluntary tor nodes before going to it's final destination on the internet [21:05] how can i use this tor [21:05] guys, i'm using evolution... i've noticed that if my mails has jpeg attachments, sometimes it automatically shows the pic without pressing the right arrow button... how do i set this to open all jpeg files automatically? any idea? [21:05] like comin from windows dos this is a huge shocker to me im lost [21:05] liz: ah, you already did :) [21:05] joker_: documentation is available at www.torproject.org [21:06] fryguy, where's the check box for IEC 758?? [21:06] thank you [21:06] xubuntu uses gnome libs tho still doesnt it? [21:06] why wont the boot logo come up on my lcd [21:06] tdizzy: no idea [21:06] any help would be nice [21:06] I don't trust tor [21:06] hmw: that seems to be about rocks [21:06] deany: there's some gtk stuff installed for various packages, yes [21:06] eseven73: it's not perfect [21:06] liz: ask again, be more specific :) [21:06] which is probably why I see little dfiference in memory footprint using xubuntu [21:06] bobstro: you probably meant someone else? [21:06] glitsj16: grrrr dependencies error i dont know how to fix trying to install easycam [21:06] i use an i7 and i wanna get the max performance outa my processor so i installed xubuntu [21:07] Halabeaster54: that's pretty poor reasoning [21:07] yea i no [21:07] i also just wanted to try it out [21:07] Anyone know what this DCC thing is about? [21:07] Hi all... I have Intrepid Ibex 8.10 installed as a server. I am trying to update, but no matter what I do I keep on getting a corrupted update list file, apt-get and aptitude say: Sub-process bzip2 returned an error code (2) ... I have tried swithing mirrors but same story... any ideas? [21:07] yowshi: have you tried the command you received with that (sudo apt-get install -f) yet ? [21:07] AAA_awright: dcc is a mechanism for doing direct connections to other clients on an irc network [21:07] hmw: ah, the link went to the article about rocks. he needs to cut & paste entire url, including parens [21:07] direct client communication [21:07] and how is xubuntu better then widnows 7 and mac os x [21:07] glitsj16: where was i supposed to have recieved this command? [21:08] I know that much, why is it able to disconnect clients? [21:08] I have ubuntu 8.04 server ed. and I have very small disk space (2.60GB used, 70MB free). Can You tell me which files I can delete from default installation? Thank You :) [21:08] Halabeaster54: it's not [21:08] Halabeaster54, it's free [21:08] then why do people use it [21:08] gotcha [21:08] :) [21:08] yowshi: i thought you got that when you tried to install easycam, my bad [21:08] Halabeaster54: because some people prefer it to alternatives [21:08] fryguy: thanks [21:08] Halabeaster54: you have to define 'better', but it may be a better fit for some things [21:08] hi [21:08] like what? [21:09] Halabeaster54: well, cost is a good one :) [21:09] yea i c that [21:09] Halabeaster54, most of linux software is open source so people can pick it apart and customize it to their needs, you cant really do that with Windows and Apple stuff [21:09] glitsj16: besides that command doesnt actually do anything [21:09] does the ubuntu server edition come with kvm support? [21:09] WHere all cached deb packages are stored? Thank You! [21:09] I use *nix systems (freebsd) mostly because of coreutils, and an effective and fast shell [21:09] glitsj16: other then removing easycam [21:09] does anyone have experience with the program songbird [21:09] yowshi: are you following https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EasyCam as a guide to install easycam ? [21:09] G2009: most KVM are transparent to machine [21:10] jmalinens: /var/cache [21:10] can any one help me to know more about command line usage in ubuntu . iam a amateur linux user [21:10] jmalinens: /var/cache/apt/archives/ [21:10] thanks! [21:10] !cli > balajikandan (balajikandan, see the private message from ubottu) [21:10] i no that thats the beauty of it but like how do i use it and customize it like im stugglin with changing the screen res and installing flash player [21:10] Halabeaster54: "better" arguments are pointless. better to just think in terms of alternatives. [21:10] balajikandan: what specifically do you want to know [21:10] glitsj16: yes [21:10] #ubuntuforums [21:10] fryguy, where you saying that it should be listed an addition Track setting in the Preferences for my sound device? one that should control the optical audio? [21:10] bobstro: I am talking about kernel virtualization Machine [21:10] not the switch [21:10] fryguy, i don't see one [21:10] G2009: haha, sorry [21:11] Can I delete all backages in apt cache? [21:11] yowshi: what step isn't working ? [21:11] tdizzy: run alsamixer and look there [21:11] packages [21:11] glitsj16: the step where i install the gtk file [21:11] G2009: been fighting with kvms at work lately, too much on the brain. :) [21:11] Anybody knows rapidshare downloader for Ubuntu that suppurts premium username and pass?

[21:13] Hi, I'm getting no sound and I'm not sure what my soundcard is. Using jaunty amd64 [21:13] since iam amateur user ... just wanted to know the basic usage and basic command needs to be know to use linux [21:13] ziroday: use lspci -vvv to find your soundcard [21:13] ziroday: lspci should help you figure out your sound [21:13] jmalinens: apt-get --help [21:13] OK, I will read it :) [21:13] fryguy: twobitsp1ite what should I be looking for? [21:14] ziroday: "sound" [21:14] ziroday: or just pastebin the whole thing and we can help you find it [21:14] apt get clean/autoclean, thanks :) [21:14] something like this: "00:14.2 Audio device: ATI Technologies Inc SBx00 Azalia (Intel HDA)" [21:14] * fryguy runs update on his freebsd server [21:14] glitsj16: great the mal/nonfunctioning deb commands not only didnt dxco anything to help they broke my updater [21:14] yowshi: http://blognux.free.fr/ubuntu is mentioned at the very first step to add easycam2 on 32 bit ubuntu [21:15] fryguy: thanks man, for your hel [21:15] glitsj16: well seeing as i am on a 64BIT system i jumped down to the 64 bit part [21:15] Is anyone aware of a good app where I can track my time spent on tasks on a daily basis? [21:15] yowshi: that's why i asked earlier, we seem to have communication failure :) [21:16] cdavis: I bet if you googled for time management apps you would find something [21:16] fryguy, you mentioned an option called something like IEC 758. where in ALSA mixer is that? [21:16] ls [21:16] anyone know the channel for the beginners team [21:16] hi everyone, i'm having problems with the listing of the available machines on my network using samba. i can access the machine if i specify the address as "smb://[local ip of the pc], but 'findsmb' command doesn't list a thing. any idea?

[21:19] fryguy, does it make any difference that my card usually lists twice on windows, and one of them says Optical?

[21:20] dpkg switches don't work [21:20] poptatr: you need to set a flag to upgrade from LTS to non-LTS, not sure where it is outside of the update-manager gui [21:20] yowshi: just wait to let it download completely before doing the next step [21:20] "Current VMware products do not virtualize the VT-x or AMD-V extensions." :( [21:20] using apt allways hangs on inserting extenxions.py [21:21] thx fryguy, i'll google that :D [21:21] glitsj16: well thats a given. the second file downloads in a breeze [21:21] how do i clean manually the apt- cache without messing everything up?

[21:31] s/what/whats [21:31] I did an installation on a USB device which contained a folder called pics - the installation overridden the contents of the directory which contained valuable pictures - I'm desparate [21:31] jv_: i am on arch for about an year (forgot on ubuntu alittle), but i had similar problems, and i hard-rebooted comp, dpkg --reconfigure -a (i think syntax is right? :|) and then re-updated my sys as many it has left? [21:32] ds123: call a professional data recovery service [21:32] yowshi: doing a websearch to see if something is available for jaunty in a PPA somewhere, i'll report back on that [21:32] glitsj16: this dont look liokoe any source file i know how to install [21:32] hi guys [21:32] fryguy - is there any software I can use now ? [21:33] hi everybody im trying to installl ubuntu i get a srst errorno (-16) any help? [21:33] u mean what? [21:33] vatts, I am having a similar problem myself...in my case apt-get got stuck on installing openoffice and I can't find a way to remove the cache [21:33] Does it go from 8.04 to 8.11, then to 9.04? [21:33] might delete the folder ;) [21:33] oh, jv_, it just pass'd through :D [21:33] ds123: any attempts at recovering the data yourself will only make it less likely that the proessionals will be able to help you [21:33] xD [21:33] yowshi: it's one of those "uncompress, configure, make, make install" routines, but give us a few minutes, there might be easier options, doing some searching okay [21:34] glitsj16: no it isnt one of those configure make && make installers [21:34] vatts, try the recovery option on the boot menu for dpkg if it gives you errors === vinno is now known as Vinn0 [21:34] for me didn't work ;) [21:34] yowshi: i see, i'll download and check back [21:34] m [21:34] jv_: no errors [21:34] :D [21:35] so it's only the program itself the problem? [21:35] what does srst errorno (-16) on installation stands for? [21:35] Hi I'm having trouble with Nvidia drivers... whenever I enable them, my screen ends up blank after the login process, and the monitor says out of range. [21:35] I need help.... installation is always been easy [21:35] poptatr, I tried that but it failed. Then I installed 9.04 from CD [21:36] adsf341: so check /var/log/Xorg.log to see if there is anything noteworthy, and then set the resolution manually in /etc/X11/xorg.conf [21:36] quitting soon..reinstalling since now the menu is slow like a snail..probably everything is getting rotten ...shlickz! i am lucky I love computers ;) [21:37] lastman: what happened? i dont think i can stop it now... :\ [21:37] the good thing is that I have my trusty eeepc running jaunty eee ;) [21:38] ah..removing apt-cache to see what happens [21:38] Nvidia FX570m or 8400gs?

[21:38] Where is now linux/config.h? [21:39] I had heavy problems with the xorg server, couldnt load gdm anymore even not with the backup of my xorg.conf. Doesnt mean, you will have the same problems, but it shows to me that upgrading is a risky process :-) [21:40] I just upgraded from Ubuntu 8.10 to 9.04, and now the system won't boot. I tried all the old kernels, and their recovery modes, and all of them crash during boot except 2.6.24, which will get to a login, but my NVIDIA 96 drivers crash it then. Any ideas? [21:40] lol "Come on kids, gather around the Ubuntu IRC Channel"... [21:40] LOL [21:40] yowshi: looks like you can manually install these, you'll need sudo cp from within your decompressed folder [21:40] And to top it all off, my CD Drive won't eject, so I can't reinstall, and the computers a desktop with only wireless connectivity where it is. [21:40] sabel4th, you have to install 9.04 from CD [21:40] :-) [21:40] glitsj16: i will have to do what? [21:41] can anyone help me with getting the speakers connected to my optical audio port working? [21:41] Well, crud. Now I need to figure out how to unjam the CD drive. [21:41] Its better than fixing problems [21:41] yowshi: did you uncompress that downloaded tar.gz file ? [21:41] glitsj16: of course [21:42] sabel4th, unjam? [21:42] how might I get my digital audio to work? [21:42] if it does not open use that small paper clip on the small hole in the lid [21:42] jv_: It won't eject. What I get for buying a cheap DVD drive from Walmart when my previous one stopped opening at all. I tried the paperclip method, it makes a noise, access lights flash, and nothing happens. Same with the power off. === poptatr is now known as tatr === tatr is now known as poptatr [21:43] yowshi: manually copy over those files to /usr/share/applications and /usr/share/EastCam2 [21:43] yowshi: to do that, you will need sudo [21:44] glitsj16: ok but which ones go where? [21:44] can anyone help me with getting my optical audio device working? [21:44] if you wanna open a dvd driev just use a cheese cutter [21:44] hai guys [21:44] anyone got a minute [21:44] Ziw: Huh? [21:44] hum..return it if you can...the paper clip thing releases the mechanical method..if it does not open it has the hardware broken or malfunction [21:45] sabel4th: yea u know one of those things u slice cheese with, stick it into the drive and u can get the cd out .. i dont recommend it but ive done it a few times :P [21:45] is 50C too high for the cpu idling? [21:45] G2009: depends on the CPU [21:45] There isn't even a CD in the drive. [21:45] I have a nvidia vga with 2 dvi out. The main one is to my monitor. The other, is connected to a TV using a dvi-hdmi cable. The problem is that in 8.10 I had 2 desktops (with the same user logged in at the same time) and now with 9.04 it is 1 desktop that goes from my monitor 19" to my TV 52"... [21:45] Fillado: it is an E8400 [21:45] I already disabled xinerama, and tried some different configs usign nvidia-settings and by hand.. TwinView on/off too. The same xorg.conf from before doesnt work now. [21:45] ah my bad :) [21:46] yowshi: copy what's under the uncompressed folder /usr/share/EasyCam2 to that system location, similar for the files under /usr/share/EasyCam2/gtk [21:46] G2009: should be fine, in a laptop i take it? [21:46] Fillado: desktop [21:46] Hey everyone. Just upgraded Ubuntu from 8.10 to 9.04 - but the GDM login window is set to 640x480 resolution, and my resolution on the desktop is 1280x1024. Does anyone know how to change the resolution of the login window independently? [21:46] No offense to anyone, but do Ubuntu upgrades ever work? [21:46] hey guy to get ndiswrapper to work on my lptp do i need to download the appropriate windows drivers? [21:47] Hello everyone, I am using GNASH SWF player and it is not able to play complex swf files, like the one on Pandora.com [21:47] ok, this is something new that has started happining. I have limewire on my computer. recently, when I open lime wire the startup screen appears at the very bottom right hand side of the screen, how do I fix it? [21:47] does anyone know a better alternative [21:47] sabel4th: yes, it worked every time here [21:47] It may work or not, it s a matter of luck [21:47] G2009: well, it should still be fine. I've got a Core Duo in a laptop and that idles at 60c [21:47] I'm having sound trouble. I have an Acer Aspire X1700. My sound system is plugged in via the optical audio cable on the back. I can get sound if I plug in a standard pair of headphones to the front, but I can't get my sound system to work. How might I fix this problem? [21:47] I am using this laptop for 2 kids. Is there a way to remove the passwords from their profiles so they can log into their profile without having to type a password? [21:47] Enasni: get flashplugin-nonfree [21:48] Lighttitan: I would suggest setting a login timeout option. [21:48] anyone got any experience with SLi? [21:48] Fillado: I can get it cooler bu increasing the fan speed. right now it the cpu fan is @ 500rpm :+ [21:48] Enasni: and make sure you remove gnash related packages, or they will conflict [21:48] Enasni; how would I got about that? [21:48] yes, 500RPM not 5000 [21:48] ok, this is something new that has started happining. I have limewire on my computer. recently, when I open lime wire the startup screen appears at the very bottom right hand side of the screen, how do I fix it? [21:48] glitsj16: thank you [21:49] How do I increase volume at command line? Alsamixer does not do it. I need to increase volume, it is stupidly quiet [21:49] G2009: haha, well that'll explain it :p [21:49] Lighttitan: Go to System>Preferences>Security [21:49] Lighttitan: Then click Enable Timed Login [21:49] glitsj16: yoshi@yoshi-ubuntu:~/Desktop/stuff/easycam2-gtk/usr/share/EasyCam2/gtk$ sudo cp video-preview.png /usr/share/EasyCam2/gtk [21:49] like so? [21:49] come on man I am tired of being ignored [21:49] Enasni; I am on xubuntu, so I don't see the security option [21:50] after the move to 9.04 my firefox save window takes 30 seconds to come up, any ideas hoyw to fix this? [21:50] Sorry... I got disconnected. Had to restart. My question was: How do I start/stop NetworkManager [21:50] Jackstraw: if you're being ignored it's because nobody knows the answer, not that we don't like you [21:50] yowshi: correct, just copy over all files like that from the desktop location yes [21:50] well fuck you tooo [21:50] whenever i insert a (incorrectly formatted?) audio cd, my system freezes up ... help? [21:50] Lighttitan: I use Ubuntu... sorry I don't know then. I'm sure there must be some sort of equivalent. I would suggest researching the "timed login option" with keyword Xubuntu [21:50] A more complex question was: Can I get Pidgin to take instructions from wvdial instead of NetworkManager? [21:50] kiss my jolly ass [21:50] jackstraw: is that the only application with that behavior? === eugen_ is now known as Guest65343 [21:51] how charming [21:51] nm, if you're going to be a jackass, [21:51] what a poof [21:51] yowshi: it's only a few files, after that you should be able to follow the guidelines again [21:51] Enasni; thanks [21:51] glitsj16: what about the applications folder? [21:51] hello there, can anyone please help me with a pci wireless issue? I'm trying to install a RTL 8185 wireless PCI card to my ubuntu 8.10 but each time i connect the card to the pci port ubuntu doesn't boot ok... it freezes before logien [21:51] How do I increase volume at command line? Alsamixer does not do it. I need to increase volume, it is very quiet. I feel like I have tried everything. [21:52] yowshi: same thing [21:52] yowshi: that will give you a menu item [21:52] glitsj16: copied to what folder though? *sighs* never mind this is all to convoluted and i am not risking further damage to my system for the sake of a webcam [21:52] Hmmm... can someone here help me with NetworkManager start/stop please? That is all I require for now [21:53] yowshi: granted, this is not regular routine i realize [21:53] try to install ubuntu 9.04 everything will be work [21:54] hi all, in aptitude how can i reinstall a package with the configuration files being removed and reinstalled too? [21:55] yowshi: copy the one file under your desktop easycam2-gtk/usr/share/applications folder to /usr/share/applications and that should cover things [21:55] hey aknm o/ [21:55] iquit: not sure if you can do that [21:55] iquit: what's the package? [21:55] hai marens [21:55] Fillado: its nautilus-sendto [21:55] glitsj16: nnow run the python command given in the easy cam guide? [21:56] Fillado: i tried "L" but there are dependencies so aptitude wont let me [21:56] yowshi: worst case scenario is that it doesn't find you a webcam driver, in that case, just remove what you copied over and you are back to square one if things fail ... yes try running that python cmd [21:56] hi all [21:56] hello there, can anyone please help me with a pci wireless issue? I'm trying to install a RTL 8185 wireless PCI card to my ubuntu 8.10 but each time i connect the card to the pci port ubuntu doesn't boot ok... it freezes before login [21:56] who here can help?

Just upgraded Ubuntu from 8.10 to 9.04 - but the GDM login window is set to 640x480 resolution, and my resolution on the desktop is 1280x1024. Does anyone know how to change the resolution of the login window independently? [21:57] iquit: lol damn, i was hoping you were going to say something that would save a config file to your home directory [21:58] glitsj16: i dont think drivers are the problem anyway [21:58] yowshi: might be easier to open a GUI file manager (gksu nautilus) for a moment and double-check everything is in the right place, mirroring what you uncompressed to desktop [21:58] glitsj16: because gstreamer-properties sees it [21:59] yowshi: well, that might be, this is jus a way to make sure and rule that out i guess [21:59] I want my resolution to be 1280x1024 but Display settings and Nvidia Settings only give me 1024x768, 1152x864, 1360x768 ... How can I get 1280x1024 which seems to me like a standard resolution? [22:00] hello [22:00] Can anyone help me? [22:01] dont ask to ask, just ask [22:01] is there any anti-virus for linux? [22:01] glitsj16: oh boy there are more files then just what i copied over into the easycasm2 directory [22:01] gigasoft: clamav, and many others [22:01] do i need it anuway?

[22:02] yowshi: those are probably in there due to what you installed in step 2, the core files [22:02] with what command i can copy one folder from /home.. to /user..??? 'cp' doesn't copy for some reason...TIA [22:02] I want to go from windows to Linux --> ubuntu but I want to know sure MONO works [22:02] and? [22:02] does it [22:02] glitsj16: yep but the gtk folder isnt there [22:03] Hermpie: mono is only used for .NET executables. it usually works pretty well [22:03] i will use my pcmanfm which i always run as sudo to copy them manually [22:03] thrillERboy: oh, it's a saying like "go ahead" [22:03] yowshi: good idea yes [22:03] simply how to use winamp skin in Audacious? [22:03] Yes I code with the .net framework, I want to switch to mono for all platforms [22:03] thrillERboy: I take it all you've done is extract songbird into your home directory?

[22:04] Hermpie: go ahead and test it yourself [22:04] Hermpie: I think svn needs to be installed separately [22:04] Okay [22:04] try to install 9.04 clean install [22:05] but does the MONO IDE or somesort has a special SVN thing installed on it because VS 2008 with VisualSVN is nice :) [22:05] But It fails to.

[22:06] glitsj16: ok it says it finished it but i saw asome error code pop up *shrugs* either way best i can do given the circumstances i think and cheese still doesnt work [22:06] me have to upgrade with cd tomorrow [22:06] Fillado: i know its some kind of a weird concern ;-) [22:06] thrillerBoy: I get roughly 20 second boots on more than one machine.

[22:08] I run CS4 in a virtual XP [22:08] tdizzy: make sure all your volumes are turned up all the way, spdif(optical) and headphones are two different volume outputs [22:08] Virtual Box running XP [22:08] daverag, won't there be a performance drop down? [22:08] Hermpie: http://www.howtoforge.com/the-perfect-desktop-ubuntu-9.04 [22:08] I'm not sure if that will screw something up down the road or not, but it works for now, heheh [22:08] Fillado: hehe ok, anyway, thank you =) [22:08] Nothing is less performing than CS4 on Vista [22:09] There's no way it can be slower on a Virtual XP with nothing else on it [22:09] krphop, it shows like 5 different devices in the volume manager [22:09] 9.04 is new? since when I have 8.10 [22:09] tdizzy: yeah, so turn them all up [22:09] krphop, they're all up [22:09] i used GIMP for the first time in ages today - first time i've actually been able to figure it out [22:09] What is most stable? 9.04 or 8.10 [22:09] Hermpie: 9.04 is perfectly stable [22:09] rphop, and nothing has a name that says it's digital or optical [22:09] Hi! Hardy is only showing me it can update to 8.10, is this expected?

I have dream! hehe, no but a question anyway... I would like to set up a remote desktop installation of jaunty that I can access over the Internet. It must be possible to at least run stuff as compiz at decent speed. Does it exist any remote control protocol that support this? And works between two ubuntu installations?

Is tht the same with virtual box? [22:13] Can someone please help me with ipod-convienience?? [22:13] Blinkiz: maybe you can do it better wtih Freenx than VNC [22:13] !vnc [22:13] VNC is a protocol for remote desktop. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VNCOverSSH describes how to use it securely. It works best over fast connections, otherwise look at !FreeNX [22:14] !freenx [22:14] FreeNX is advanced remote desktop technology.

Why would you want to do that? [22:29] dn5a-b, you can use ntfstools to resize your NTFS partition so you can allocate your linux partition some more space [22:29] <_CommandeR_> Dr_Willis, I know that they use windows media player 11 [22:29] jaunty ROCKS!!!!!!!!!! the best OS ever... [22:29] _CommandeR_: i told the firefox dialog to use VLC at /usr/bin/vlc (install vlc first) and it played.. Or ya could try some other players like amarok, or bmpx. its a 'shoutcast' stream or so it seems.. so most players should be able to play it [22:29] mattgirv: is it preinstalled? I dont got any space on ubuntu partition [22:29] HOw can I do this with my Partitions? [22:29] Please [22:29] <_CommandeR_> muse, agree! [22:29] if it isnt installed, it is on the ubuntu disc [22:30] worst case scenario, you can reboot from the cdrom and do it from there. [22:30] :) [22:30] <_CommandeR_> Dr_Willis, yeah im playing in movie player :) === vatts is now known as vatts[afk] [22:30] lazermann: You would only open up a security risk while you really don't need to.

[22:33] <_CommandeR_> glitsj16, how do install it ? === jordan is now known as Guest26933 [22:33] <_CommandeR_> glitsj16, synaptic or firefox addons ? === Guest26933 is now known as jwf [22:34] _CommandeR_: change the default app it opens with and give the proper command line arguments. (many have a --enque option) [22:34] mattgirv: i dont wish to use an app i never used in my life and know nothing about it. What about gparted? [22:34] I have a .net .exe my friend on ubuntu has mono installed he says he can't open it... is he lying? [22:34] but its contained within ntfstools (or it could well be ntfsprogs) , so basically if for some reason ntfsresize doesnt work, apt-get install one of those packages [22:34] _CommandeR_: via synaptic yes, or sudo apt-get install mozilla-mplayer [22:34] mattgirv: i want to resize ntfs partition and give it to ubuntu [22:34] yeah Gparted is just a frontend anyway [22:34] mattgirv: ok. [22:34] mattgirv: is it safe? [22:34] so if you have that, that'll work in the same way (minus the commands) [22:34] Hermpie: .net stuff can be a real real real pain in the backside [22:35] okay [22:35] well as long as you dont cut power while you are resizing and you let the operation finish, yes [22:35] I can convert it using mono [22:35] make sure you have enough space on the drive to resize too. [22:35] Hermpie: i would suggest learning some other language. :) [22:35] to make it platform acces [22:35] all* [22:35] <_CommandeR_> Dr_Willis, but were should i put the command ?

I'm running 8.04 - CD-ROM and DVD won't mount a disc unless it's blank CD, but I can't burn anything to it...dmeg contains line stating I need to update the driver...how do I do this?...oh, and it worked fine prior to Hardy! [22:36] anyone know how I can get audio out to go to bluetooth device? [22:36] oh, it's a CD-RW...sorry [22:36] hi i am trying to create a /www folder and point apache to it [22:36] Hermpie: lets just say that i had to do a TOTAL reinstall of windows the other day to 'correct' a .NET issue so it could run some .net apps.... [22:36] anyone know how to mount smb shares under linux? and would be willing to share that info? the internet is confusing and i would prefer to not install a samba server [22:36] Insomnia1ity: sorry, i was thinking for a new install. It would be 700MB + updates + updates for your installed applications [22:36] hi everyone. so i upgraded to Jaunty, and miro no longer starts. if i run it with --debug it prints out a bunch of what I think should just be warnings, things like 'gtcache.gettext: not initialized for string "Subscribe"', then just does nothing [22:36] already made the folder, and changed apache2 config to go to it [22:36] how can i run WINE as root? [22:36] i just cant edit any files in the www [22:36] _CommandeR_: mozilla-mplayer might conflict with other similar plugins though, like totem-mozilla ... decide on which one you want (personally i find that mplayer plugin from the mozilla-mplayer package runs without issues and supports just about all you need straight in the browser) [22:37] <_CommandeR_> Dr_Willis, k.. [22:37] Dr_Willis what's your point? [22:37] did chmod but it says access denied [22:37] how can i run WINE as root?

[22:37] Wargasm: stop [22:37] lol [22:37] Wargasm: no one needs to run it as root [22:37] Why? [22:37] qopi: what bluetooth software are you using to do that? [22:37] ah....... sudo wine [22:37] To run it on linux? [22:38] Hermpie: there was no way to 'FIX' the .NET installation on the Vista box.. couldent remove/couldent install over.. [22:38] cavaradossi: did you mean to install wine? === guest__ is now known as w525aa [22:38] cavaradossi: you didn't mean to run wine as root after it's installed? [22:38] no to run wine as root [22:38] Hmm [22:38] just dual boot it then? [22:38] i wont run it, just for the record [22:38] mattgirv: hmz, thanks, think I've just gotten rid of bluez and replaced it with blueman :-/ [22:38] only sudo wine works as root? [22:38] _CommandeR_: no mplayer installed ? or gnome-mplayer or smplayer for a nicer frontend ? well, it's just an option, if you have eve radio playing, no need for other installs i guess [22:38] cavaradossi: if your going to get wine add their repo for Ubuntu http://www.winehq.org and then you always have latest version [22:39] qopi, Ah ok can't really help then. What problems are you having? [22:39] cavaradossi: if you have enough memory use virtualbox [22:39] I have only set up with Bluez before [22:39] muse: I've got blueman installed at the mo [22:39] thanks qopi, but i seem to run into authenication issues [22:39] for more security i guess muse? [22:39] cavaradossi: no [22:39] ya [22:39] <_CommandeR_> glitsj16, btw what player do you recommend ? [22:39] muse: heh heh at that guy [22:39] <_CommandeR_> glitsj16, tried amarok but it sux [22:39] mattgirv: ok, well, I don't care what I use, I just want to send audio out to bluetooth device plugged into my hifi, for listening to last.fm etc [22:40] cavaradossi: Wine let's you run quite a lot of apps inside Desktop GNU/Linux, but you can also run Windohs inside it [22:40] qopi: ok then does it have an icon in the tray? [22:40] muse: yes, I'm connnected to the device [22:40] What problems have you been having though? Getting your device discovered? [22:40] if you run wine from applications folder you run it as always as user ? [22:40] Ill let muse handle this ;) [22:40] _CommandeR_: i use mpd with gmpc for all things audio [22:41] muse/ mattgirv : the device is connnected, just can't work out how to send audio to it [22:41] even if you have a terminal open with sudo su enable? [22:41] apot: authentication issues? [22:41] <_CommandeR_> glitsj16, mpd gmpc ? do they have a site or a screenshot etc? [22:41] qopi: I was sure, although I don't have it installed atm, that you just right click it and yo will find a audio server button that you have to enable [22:42] qopi: after entering the location information for the share, an "Enter Password" box appears. despite entering the correct password, the Enter Password box just opens endlessly [22:42] Dr_Willis, can you tell that if I wrote a program in MONO it can be ran on windows linux and every platform I can think of or most of them? [22:42] Hermpie: it's not quite like that [22:42] _CommandeR_: http://gmpc.wikia.com/wiki/Gnome_Music_Player_Client [22:42] Explain [22:43] Hermpie: or maybe it is, but like for example Banshee is written in Mono, but can Windows run it, nope [22:43] What language you can code in on Linux [22:43] i have smbclient, smbmount, and smbumount installed [22:43] Hermpie: in 'theory' it can be ran.. but in practice.. ive not seen that be the case without a lot of work/screaming/cussing. [22:43] Hermpie: Python is a good one for Linux [22:43] but i assume that is irrelevant [22:43] muse: right click what, exactly? [22:43] Python is web? [22:43] Hermpie: it can also be for web yeah [22:43] doesn't blueman have a tray icon? [22:43] Hermpie: Mono/.Net has a lot of 'hype' around it - that just has not delivered the promises yet. [22:43] I c [22:43] the tray icon.. qopi [22:43] Hermpie, Check out perl :) [22:44] I thought so [22:44] perl is lovely [22:44] :D [22:44] yes [22:44] I've been trying to figure this out for days...

[22:44] thanks hmw and ubbottu [22:44] mattgirv: and Python is a great one to start with [22:45] Ive seen a lot of linux perl scripts/tools in the past. then python seemed to get more poplyar now a days [22:45] befor Perl, it seemed TCL/TK was popular [22:45] Perl has a constant userbase [22:45] if you want to be a sysadmin, learn perl. if you want to be a programmer, learn python [22:45] that wont change :p [22:45] I've been told that Ubuntu's alternate installer can encrypt my root filesystem, but I can't find that option.

[22:53] muse: do I inlucde the >> ? [22:53] kfizz yea... [22:53] I upgraded my laptop a few days ago, and now when logging in, the network manager utility lists my wireless as disabled, but I have no option to enable it.

[22:54] qopi: in my notes it said that a restart my be required.. I am sure all you have to do is restart all the bluetooth proccesses thou, there where just to many and I am lazy :) [22:54] cllaudyu: Have you tried running programs from the terminal and seeing what happpens? [22:55] Winkie: eg ifconfig wlan0 up; iwlist wlan0 scan ... [22:55] odinsbane: I have yet to try, as we're WPA2 I don't exactly know how, was hoping it was a known issue [22:55] odinsbane: i'll try the scan, one second [22:55] qopi: ya, and swap all the \n with linebreaks [22:55] bobbob1016: I just spent hours searching google. [22:55] odinsbane: i consistently get 'no scan results' [22:55] jwf: http://pastebin.com/f5d43615c [22:56] muse: ah, I'd better do that line break thing :P [22:56] anyone know how to fix the shutdown issue?

I can see the still previews but when I tried to play through totem & vlc, the programs open then close without playing anything [22:56] odinsbane: there isn't, i checked [22:56] Quino: You probably need the codecs [22:57] lazermann, unzip with -d option [22:57] kfizz: what codecs do i get? [22:57] Dr_Willis: and did it start up just fine, then say "program exited normally" when you close the program? [22:57] qopi: http://pastebin.com/m5fc11f8 should look like this.. all in ~/.asoundrc [22:57] hola [22:57] Quino: https://help.ubuntu.com/7.04/musicvideophotos/C/codecs.html [22:57] Quino: try playing them from the terminal, also try mplayer/gmplayer and instll the ubuntu-restricted-extras package and perhaps the w32codecs pack.

[22:58] glitsj16: i just turned off the net repos, we'll see if that fixes it [22:58] mierda [22:58] Is there any way to change sample rate on a usb mic.. I tried jackd but i dont think its a solution.. [22:58] qopi: thats all I can say really.. I may have restarted and it worked, but after that it worked so my notes end there :P [22:58] playos [22:58] jwf: try it as a new user?

[23:01] how i am able to solve this problem [23:01] muse: hmz, did that and restarted bluetooth but now device manager wont even open! :P [23:01] :( [23:01] glitsj16: nope =( [23:02] mrblonde: try unplugging everything usb [23:02] mattgirv this is the problem. I don't. Sudo doesn't work.

[23:02] Heh. I got that Ubuntu 9.04 upgrade to work - my mom left it on while manually prying the drive open, and it suddenly drops to a console from the frozen boot screen, installs the NVIDIA drivers, and boots. [23:03] (/me came on as sabel4th to ask for help about that, BTW) [23:03] qopi: much more then what I did in the end.. but I am sure you will get it working after all that. [23:03] i have done this before and umounted it too but it doesn't helped [23:03] glitsj16: apparently the release notes suggest the alternate installCD [23:03] mattgirv "julian@julian-laptop:~$ sudo unzip wasabi_player_skin.zip -d /usr/share/audacious/skins [23:03] checkdir: cannot create extraction directory: /usr/share/audacious/skins === eugen is now known as Guest93695 [23:03] gourdcaptain: great :P [23:03] qopi: your on your own now..

[23:04] lazermann, try mkdir first [23:04] weird? [23:04] or does the directory already exist? [23:04] lazermann: What did I help you with before, nvid drivers? [23:05] apot: could be the space in the sharename is causing issues. I noticed that here the space is replaced by a %20 [23:05] mattgirv the path does exist [23:05] yp [23:05] yo* [23:05] lazermann, -d points to a existing directory [23:05] wierd i think i had some ubunbtu spyware, something happened to my system where mispelled web addresses would go to ask.com as opposed to opendns results and the save as dialog took 30 seconds to appear, a reboot fixed it but just wierd [23:05] does anyone know how to get gnome-wallchanger (doctromo's ppa) to work? it won't acknowledge any config changes for me... [23:05] apot does smb://192.168.1.2/Shared\ Folder/ work?

[23:07] capiira yes the directory i want to extract to does exist [23:07] btw. put audacious skins inside your home [23:07] If I'm backing up some directories on my hard drive, ext4 should I make the backup file system ext4 or can I go with ext3? [23:07] coleys can't unzip from home folder to /usr/share/audacious/skins [23:07] odinsbane: it turns out i don't have an older kernel installed, and I think our wireless should be visible [23:07] lazermann: what kind of archive? [23:08] i just bought a server and im trying to put ubuntu on it but nothing will come up on my monitor, not even the bios, any1 know whats up? [23:08] my nautilus scripts are not working in 9.04 anything i can try to see why? [23:08] its not a multipart archive is it? [23:08] :p [23:08] winamp skin - wasabi_player_skin.zip [23:08] there is no need to put them in /usr/share/audacious [23:08] coleys well i renamed it to zip [23:08] it was .wal [23:08] lazermann: it was .tar.gz or someth? [23:08] put it in your home directory in the audacious dir [23:08] Anybody know how to fix " invalid blocks count" in partitian? [23:08] Winkie: can you shut it down and try to bring it back? ifconfig wlan0 down...ifconfig wlan0 up ... then scan from it? [23:08] odinsbane: one second [23:08] coleys no it was .wal classic winamp skin file [23:09] odinsbane: down and up seems fine, but still no scan results [23:09] zhurai,open dns is my dns provider but misspelled entrys would come up with ask.com results as opposed to opendns search results unti i rebootes [23:09] lazermann: Hm, well you can extract the file to your home folder then... use the mv command to move it to that directory. [23:09] oh odinsbane [23:09] Anybody know how to fix " invalid blocks count" in partitian? [23:09] coleys which i tried to untar, unzip...actually it is extractable to home folder via archive manager [23:09] you won't believe what it is [23:09] lazermann, put it in /home/$USERNAME/.audacious /Skins [23:10] odinsbane: i have found a log entry explaining it :) [23:10] coleys what is mv [23:10] odinsbane: [ 411.855131] iwlagn: Radio disabled by HW RF Kill switch [23:10] You didn't have the switch on.

[23:11] let us try 1 moment [23:11] i guess that should be made more obvious in networkmanager, but i should have thought to check it. thanks for your help odinsbane [23:11] My sound device just disappeared, nothing strange in dmesg. Any ideas where else I should look? [23:11] Hello, I was wondering if I could have some help with something. I am trying to compile http://libharu.org/wiki/Downloads#Snapshots this on Ubuntu, and its not working. [23:11] lazermann: Tell me what's inside the zip file, so I can give you a more specific command [23:12] ask.com stole my opendns search results. until reboot....wierd [23:12] lazermann, v1.3 uses ~/.local/share/audacious/Skins [23:12] actually, it's still showing up in alsamixer - it's just amarok and mplayer and every single application that needs audio that tells me it doesn't exist [23:12] hi, i have a question, if i wanna connect my laptop to an external monitor, using vga cable, are there any settings or anything i need to do to get it working? or do i just plug it in and it should work? [23:12] i am running ubuntu 9.04 [23:12] mv doesn't work: 'julian@julian-laptop:~$ sudo mv /wasabi /usr/share/audacious/skins [23:12] mv: cannot stat `/wasabi': No such file or directory [23:13] julian@julian-laptop:~$ cd wasabi [23:13] julian@julian-laptop:~/wasabi$' [23:13] lazermann: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. [23:13] oops sorry [23:13] Houba1986: can depend on the video card/chipset an laptop... most laptops have a special key combo to toggle the output - basically.. try it and see [23:13] is anyone able to run nautilus scripts in 9.04? they are not working for me [23:13] *: nope, removing the space in the share name doesnt help. [23:13] anyone having out of range problems with Nvidia drivers? (screen comes up blank, says out of range on monitor) [23:14] Dr_Willis, same thing with a projector? i know with the svideo cable, i had to change the resolution, because max resolution on svideo is 1024*768 [23:14] so, i can connect to the share, just weirdly [23:14] What's everyone favorite p2p for Ubuntu other than bittorrent? [23:14] Houba1986: yep.. try it and see.. is about all ya can say with Laptops... [23:14] lazermann, type "sudo nautilus" and use the file manager :D [23:14] kfizz: none, all the clients suck [23:15] in case you dont want the skin in your home [23:15] my xchat likes to lock my system up when i try to resize it. is it worth reporting as a bug or shall i just try a different irc client? [23:15] kfizz: I just stick to btdownloadcurses [23:15] nvidiadriverhelp: copy and paste the exact error into a google search surounded by "", you should find help.. [23:15] neither 'mv' nor '/local/.audacious/ work..will try nautilus [23:16] lazermann: You can also try... Alt +F2 --> gksu nautilus [23:16] is the alternate CD different than the server CD? [23:16] lazermann: And just copying, and pasting the files. [23:16] mano: try use pidgin.. it is installed by default [23:16] pwnguin: yes [23:16] ok so I have the Gstreamer already installed and I still cannot the get AVI files to play in Totem or VLC [23:16] it can't create the directory...strange. But i am sure it would be all fine if i could logon as root. But it doesn't let me, why? [23:16] great [23:16] i mean not in terminal upon logon... [23:17] dunno [23:17] lazermann: you DONT login directly as root. :) [23:17] lazermann: What directory do you want created/ [23:17] lazermann: learn to use the command line to do rooty tasks is the best thing todo. [23:17] sudo = root [23:17] i know but in mandriva you can actually [23:17] i mounted an iso file, copied all files into an temporary directory, edited some thing and tried to create a new iso with mkisofs. i seem to have lost the bootsector on the way. any idea how to fix that? [23:17] taylor_: any errors while trying to build that ? On a side-note, going over the feature set on that website, there's alternatives on ubuntu you can install from regular repositories i believe [23:17] in ubuntu too you just have to setup a password [23:17] lazermann: dosent matter what mandriva does. :) .. its bad security practice [23:17] i have set it up [23:17] really? [23:18] I tried to find one [23:18] lazermann: i install 'mc' and then do 'sudo mc' in a terminal, use that simple file manager to do 'root' filemanaging tasks. [23:18] before i couldn't do even 'su' [23:18] lazermann: theres no need to do 'su' either. [23:18] now i can but it won't log me on [23:18] taylor_: pdftk might do, depends on what uou need i guess [23:18] sudo -s , or sudo -i [23:18] ok [23:18] I need a c++ library to write pdfs [23:18] sudo su ;) [23:18] running ubuntu server.. just set up 9.04: dhcpd is effectively not starting on boot.. /var/log/messages shows it starting, then the last thing from it is a blank line in /var/log/messages.. the process is not there.. it will start if I start it manually after boot [23:18] In trying to find a way to run my laptop cooler I discovered that the command `acpi` doesn't exist. Should I install acpi or does Jaunty use something else? [23:18] DONT yse 'sudo su' either. :P [23:19] taylor_: what are you trying to do? [23:19] if anyone knows how to get avi files to work, could you IM me? [23:19] Get a c++ library to write PDFs [23:19] lol =) nautilus worked fine [23:19] Quino: i just insgall gmplayer, and the w32codecs from medibuntu, and they normally work. [23:20] Quino: its often an issue of the proper codecs being installed. [23:20] sure it does [23:20] !medibuntu [23:20] medibuntu is a repository of packages that cannot be included into the Ubuntu distribution for legal reasons - See http://www.medibuntu.org [23:20] its nautilus he knows the way [23:20] <_CommandeR_> is there any good screen recorder ? [23:20] <_CommandeR_> for gnome [23:20] lazermann: running nautilus as root can be dangerous CLOSE it out as soon as you are done doing the rooty tasks. [23:20] record my desktop [23:20] <_CommandeR_> capiira, ? [23:20] yes [23:21] I borked my computer, methinks! I added a partition to my hard drive then decided to delete it. Now grub is throwing Error 17, I can't figure out how to fix it since I can't boot in. Right now I'm on a Mint liveCD... [23:21] Dr Willis you must be kidding [23:21] the app is called record my desktop [23:21] Hello [23:21] my computer is now going slow any ideas as to why? [23:21] taylor_: besides possible alternatives, what went wrong exactly when trying to compile that ? [23:21] <_CommandeR_> capiira, does it record wine games aswell ? [23:21] make file [23:21] it seemed to go well [23:21] uff dunno im not a fan of wine [23:21] kronopio: run top and sort by cpu usage [23:21] lazermann: using the wrong Natilus window when you think its the 'users' windws when its the root users window.. can be eiather a little problem.. or a HUGE problem... [23:21] never used too [23:21] !recordmydesktop [23:21] Sorry, I don't know anything about recordmydesktop [23:21] maybe I will pastebin the console output [23:21] p-f: hoq? [23:21] lazermann: thats why i suggested using 'mc' in a terminal. for root tasks [23:21] taylor_: that would help yes [23:22] how?

[23:50] elexodus: er, fstab isn't going to help with that. what is "it" [23:50] i found evolution [23:50] apot, analog devices work fine, but it's the digital one that does not [23:50] kronopio: evolutions sucks bawls [23:50] how to use usplash?

Im having trouble understanding [23:52] tdizzy: circumstantially, i would say you need different drivers, other possible though improbable causes would be lacking OS, hardware, or firmware support [23:52] coleys: engish [23:53] kronopio: Okay lets speak it then... which email client do you want to use? [23:53] thunderbird [23:53] kronopio: thunderbird, or Evolution. [23:53] apot, so I do need additional drivers for optical audio support? [23:53] okay.
