| GodHand | hello, basically when i installed ubuntu i partitioned the harddrive into two so that i wouldnt lose windows vista (it cost so much XD) now when im in vista i cant see the ubuntu partition :/ will it mean i cant acess it ever again from vista? | 00:04 |
| TSP__ | sebastien, but i have comiz installed by default | 00:04 |
| sebsebseb | TSP__: not the full proper one with advanced settings manager and all that | 00:05 |
| GodHand | access* | 00:05 |
| muse | GodHand: ya :P | 00:05 |
| TSP__ | simple doen't work because a config problem or something like that | 00:05 |
| TSP__ | ok, let me have a look | 00:05 |
| TSP__ | thanks sebsebseb | 00:05 |
| sebsebseb | GodHand: oh :d | 00:05 |
| apot | tdizzy, alright I've looked around for a bit and think your problem is related to TOSlink. I havent worked with optical audio before. However, the usual beginning point for solving hardware issues is to make sure your hardware is recognized by your OS | 00:05 |
| GodHand | muse: no waaaaaaay, well thats 100gigs lost. | 00:05 |
| elexodus | raylu: Ok, So, I wrote zeros to the sectors using this code: "sudo dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/hdb3 count=10000000000000000000" then, I ran "fsck -v -y /dev/sdb3", and it ran trough a process, and then froze on "Reclaiming unconnected clusters." Here's a pastebin: http://pastebin.ca/1410737 . Then I got an error message "Warning... fsck.vfat for device /dev/sdb3 exited with signal 9." I edited the fstab with "/dev/sdb1/media/Spidora | 00:05 |
| elexodus | vfat defaults,utf8,umask=0000,gid=46 0 1" Afterwards, I ran (in terminal) "sudo rsync -av --progress --stats /media/sda4 /media/Spidora". The problem is that writing to zeros worked, but only for the first 4.6GB or so of my 1TB drive... | 00:05 |
| sebsebseb | GodHand: ok well your new so I guess you don't know | 00:05 |
| muse | GodHand: vista doesn't like linux partitions in general.. you can install some software to see it but I don't recommend. | 00:06 |
| sebsebseb | GodHand: Microsoft only like their own file systems | 00:06 |
| sebsebseb | GodHand: as a result you need a Ext3 driver for Windows to access it, however that's not really a good idea to have your / partition being able to be accessed on Windows | 00:06 |
| GodHand | epic sadface :( | 00:06 |
| GodHand | yeah it doesnt really matter then i have another 600 gigs | 00:06 |
| muse | GodHand: just used ubuntu more! | 00:06 |
| noon | im on hardy but i want the version of an app that is on the ibex repos (rtorrent). what can i do? | 00:06 |
| GodHand | but damn i would have liked to keep all my files together | 00:06 |
| sebsebseb | GodHand: you can also use your vista partition inside Ubuntu :) | 00:06 |
| sebsebseb | GodHand: as long as Vista shut it down properly | 00:07 |
| GodHand | oh yeah about it | 00:07 |
| GodHand | i have this thing | 00:07 |
| Dr_Willis | Uuntu handles NTFS better then windows handles ext2/3 | 00:07 |
| sebsebseb | Dr_Willis: indeed and a 3rd party driver is needed for Ext2/3 suppourt in Windows, so yeah | 00:07 |
| Sarai | muse : victory! | 00:07 |
| Sarai | thank you so much | 00:07 |
| muse | sure :) | 00:07 |
| Dr_Willis | sebsebseb: those tools dont work in Windows7 :) i tried them last week. | 00:07 |
| steven_ | What is the best mail client for Ubuntu? | 00:07 |
| Enasni | wish me luck i am rebooting | 00:08 |
| GodHand | that my short cuts to that partition dont show up untill i click on it in the file viewer, is there some start up script or somthign i could use for that? | 00:08 |
| sebsebseb | Dr_Willis: http://www.fs-driver.org works, but don't really want Windows having access to / what if Windows get a nasty virus say, that starts deleting everything, then bye bye Ubuntu as well | 00:08 |
| Dr_Willis | GodHand: you could edit the /etc/fstab and mount the various ntfs filesystems at boot time. | 00:08 |
| muse | steven_: I am not sure about the best.. but evolution, the default is fine. | 00:08 |
| Dr_Willis | sebsebseb: last i tried it - that dident work. :) but they may of updated it recently. | 00:08 |
| steven_ | I'll try that then | 00:08 |
| manpoole | elexodus, did you see the screenshot? | 00:09 |
| GodHand | Dr_Willis: do you mean through gconfig? | 00:09 |
| GodHand | not gconfig | 00:09 |
| GodHand | i mean | 00:09 |
| GodHand | lol | 00:09 |
| GodHand | im a newb | 00:09 |
| FloodBot3 | GodHand: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 00:09 |
| Dr_Willis | GodHand: no via editing /etc/fstab :) | 00:09 |
| napa_ | hi .. I need some help with my VGA adapter (ATi Radeon 2400 Pro PCI-ex) When I usend the "hardware-drive" function in ubuntu 9.04 - I can install driver-updates ok and it seems ok.. Except for max screen resolution 800xy600 and really slow!! | 00:10 |
| napa_ | Is there a workaround? ;) | 00:10 |
| muse | GodHand: if you're a newb perhaps you should try mountmanager in the repos instead of manualy editing your fstab | 00:11 |
| muse | napa_: it is your screen that is the problem | 00:12 |
| muse | try a different screen before you start messing around with anything | 00:12 |
| haroelcabo | hi, i'm here trying to get up and runnig the bluetooh support. There seems to be some trouble when installing blueman , due to a wierd failed dependency: it needs python <) 2.6 'but' the one installed is 2.6.2-0ubuntu1.... what's the problem ? | 00:12 |
| napa_ | muse: no ... Without the propriatery FGLRX graphics driver it runs on 1280-1024 perfectly | 00:12 |
| napa_ | So it has to be the driver | 00:13 |
| muse | napa_: just trust me.. do you have another screen lying around | 00:13 |
| sahyuhr | hey everyone..... i was wondering if i should change the version firefox i have from the built in one to the official one from the firefox site... i've been experiencing a lot of system freezing from using it | 00:13 |
| sahyuhr | any ideas on that? or should i just go with using konquerer | 00:14 |
| manpoole | can someone help me get back my desktop notification icons? | 00:14 |
| usser | haroelcabo, installing from the repositories? | 00:14 |
| napa_ | muse: no I don't .... I don't even think it's a hardware error ,.... | 00:14 |
| elexodus | Ok, So, I wrote zeros to the sectors using this code: "sudo dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/hdb3 count=10000000000000000000" then, I ran "fsck -v -y /dev/sdb3", and it ran trough a process, and then froze on "Reclaiming unconnected clusters." Here's a pastebin: http://pastebin.ca/1410737 . Then I got an error message "Warning... fsck.vfat for device /dev/sdb3 exited with signal 9." I edited the fstab with "/dev/sdb1/media/Spidora vfat | 00:14 |
| elexodus | defaults,utf8,umask=0000,gid=46 0 1" Afterwards, I ran (in terminal) "sudo rsync -av --progress --stats /media/sda4 /media/Spidora". The problem is that writing to zeros worked, but only for the first 4.6GB or so of my 1TB drive... | 00:14 |
| haroelcabo | usser: it seemed that blueman was missing from the repositories , is that true ? | 00:14 |
| sebsebseb | sahyuhr: Konqueror, Seamonkey, Galeon, and Epiphany all good | 00:14 |
| napa_ | Muse: and please don't give silly answears | 00:14 |
| manpoole | okay i fixed it nevermind | 00:15 |
| elexodus | manpoole: no, no screenshot... | 00:15 |
| sahyuhr | sebsebseb: ok thanks.. i'll stick with konqueror for now and see if i notice the difference | 00:15 |
| usser | haroelcabo, yes blueman is not included in the repos. there's unofficial repository. are you installing from the unofficial repo or you just downloaded the packages? | 00:15 |
| geeksquad | if i update to 9.04 will i use my data (i mean through the update tool) | 00:15 |
| muse | napa_: the problem is that the driver doesn't see your screen right.. I had the same problem and I could fix it. I bought I new screen afew days later and whatdaknow.. it worked. | 00:15 |
| haroelcabo | usser: i installed from the unofficial repos | 00:15 |
| manpoole | i had to add notification panel to the panel but i assumed it was already there hence the sound and date being listed | 00:15 |
| Dr_Willis | err.. if you 'zeroed' the filesystem with dd, then there was no longer a filesystem to fsck... unless im confused. | 00:15 |
| usser | haroelcabo, thats the one i used, worked perfectly deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/blueman/ppa/ubuntu jaunty main | 00:15 |
| sebsebseb | geeksquad: lose your data you meant? | 00:16 |
| haroelcabo | usser: do I have to addd it to /etc/apt/sources.list ? | 00:16 |
| usser | haroelcabo, yep | 00:16 |
| haroelcabo | usser: thanks | 00:16 |
| napa_ | muse: ok .. but I want to figure out how to use my old quipment | 00:16 |

| usser | haroelcabo, from my bluman package: depends: python (>=2.5) | 00:17 |
| napa_ | editing some config files etc | 00:17 |
| muse | napa_: well I did try afew things before buying a new screen.. like editing my xorg, or trying an older/newer driver. | 00:17 |
| haroelcabo | usser: here it depended >) 26 | 00:18 |

| IBrokeMyUbuntu | sadly, I can't quickly switch between irssi and the root terminal, so it might be hard for me to get information | 00:23 |

| antonius602 | IBrokeMyUbuntu: ur problem may lie there | 00:23 |

| IBrokeMyUbuntu | can you help me fix this...? | 00:24 |

| IBrokeMyUbuntu | i need to get my data off of this computer atleast... | 00:24 |
| antonius602 | IBrokeMyUbuntu: maybe..but the upgrade has made a mess of any simple trouble shooting | 00:24 |
| antonius602 | you can get ur data | 00:24 |

| usser | IBrokeMyUbuntu, sudo dpkg -l | grep fglrx | 00:27 |

| kfizz | qopi: Let me see if I can find the forum post I read the other day about someone trying to use their bluetooth headset, they had to do something that wasn't very obvious..just a sec | 00:29 |
| steven_ | That post is wrong | 00:29 |
| antonius602 | purging flglx packages helps change the opengl settings | 00:29 |
| usser | ratius, no problem | 00:29 |
| geeksquad | sebsebseb: what | 00:29 |
| antonius602 | which isn't easy to do in "easy" distros like ubuntu | 00:29 |
| exodus_ms | steven_, what happens when you type seahorse-preferences into the terminal | 00:29 |
| IBrokeMyUbuntu | how do I purge all fglrx at once? apt-get remove fglrx* ? | 00:30 |
| usser | IBrokeMyUbuntu, also once you get your X to a stable state, you might want to play around with radeonhd driver which is opensource and supposedly has 3d | 00:30 |
| IBrokeMyUbuntu | isnt radeonhd only for newer cards? | 00:30 |
| qopi | kfizz: ok, thanks | 00:30 |
| sebsebseb | geeksquad: you won't lose data when upgrading Ubuntu | 00:31 |
| antonius602 | brokemyubuntu: i don't know the name of the apt package... | 00:31 |
| IBrokeMyUbuntu | x1950 supported? | 00:31 |
| manpoole | radeon and radeonhd have the same 3d engine | 00:31 |
| haroelcabo | usser: i installed the bluetooth thing. now what follows ? | 00:31 |

| sebsebseb | Uuu: yep kicked | 00:55 |
| VCoolio | Dr_Willis: ok, where to check? | 00:55 |
| bashorty | (sorry about asking to ask a question) | 00:55 |
| Uuu | sebsebseb: good ;p | 00:55 |
| elexodus | sebsebseb, bazhang, uUU: GOOD WORK, | 00:55 |
| LjL | now why don't you go on to discuss lazermann's kickedness for the next 5 minutes | 00:55 |
| Dr_Willis | VCoolio: heres my xorg.conf http://pastebin.com/f3c05b92a | 00:55 |
| sebsebseb | LjL: heh heh kind of funny you saying that, since you didn't want to be an op anymore | 00:55 |
| muse | VCoolio: why not restore your backup (hopefully you backedup) then apply the changes that you want. I know when I messed with xorg I change awhole lot of stuff that I needn't... | 00:55 |
| Dr_Willis | VCoolio: clarify what the actual problem and how you are seeing it take up alot of cpu.. and also check the forums - theres Lots of good info on the forums. | 00:55 |
| Dr_Willis | VCoolio: you could just move the xorg.conf to xorg.conf.TESTING and restart X it 'should' redetect/config everything | 00:56 |
| steven_ | I have to turn up my sound to 90% just to hear anything. How do I fix that? I normally got em at like 30% | 00:56 |
| muse | Dr_Willis: does it create a new xorg.conf? | 00:56 |
| bashorty | does anyone here do any dev in mono on ubuntu? what debugger do you use? | 00:57 |
| darkblue_B | DotEdit ?? I updated to 9.04 and tried to run dotedit, stock in the apps menu - and nothing.. where do I look for errors? DOes this run? | 00:57 |
| VCoolio | Dr_Willis: I did sort of and cpu dropped from steady 15 % to 4, so I thought xorg.conf was the problem | 00:57 |
| sebsebseb | bashorty: Ubuntu people doing mono not that likely | 00:57 |
| elexodus | Ok, So, I wrote zeros to the sectors using this code: "sudo dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/hdb3 count=10000000000000000000" then, I ran "fsck -v -y /dev/sdb3", and it ran trough a process, and then froze on "Reclaiming unconnected clusters." Here's a pastebin: http://pastebin.ca/1410737 . Then I got an error message "Warning... fsck.vfat for device /dev/sdb3 exited with signal 9." I edited the fstab with "/dev/sdb1/media/Spidora vfat | 00:57 |
| elexodus | defaults,utf8,umask=0000,gid=46 0 1" Afterwards, I ran (in terminal) "sudo rsync -av --progress --stats /media/sda4 /media/Spidora". The problem is that writing to zeros worked, but only for the first 4.6GB or so of my 1TB drive... | 00:57 |
| sebsebseb | bashorty: you can try #linux ,but I got a feeling certain people in there won't like Mono much, because of it's links to Microsoft, being the open source version of .NET | 00:57 |
| bazhang | lazerman, behave | 00:58 |
| crdlb | bashorty: you could try #mono on irc.gnome.org | 00:58 |
| muse | steven_: right click your sound-applet, then 'open volume control' and power up what ever you need | 00:58 |
| Uuu | steven_: look for volume settings | 00:58 |
| bashorty | sebsebseb: hmmmm, thats a shame its a really nice env. ok ill try those places thanks for the help :) | 00:58 |
| apot | steven_: sounds like your speakers are physically turned lower, or your OS or application volume are turned lower | 00:58 |
| elexodus | Anybody know how to force a partician to write all to zeros? | 00:59 |
| sebsebseb | bashorty: there is also #proggramming | 00:59 |
| sebsebseb | bashorty: Banshee is nice sure that uses Mono | 00:59 |
| steven_ | It is on HDA Intel (Alsa mixer) Is that right? | 00:59 |
| lazerman | bazhang yeah well sure. I wasnt going to overplay anyway | 00:59 |
| sebsebseb | bashorty: F-spot is alright as well, but seriosuly why you would want to program Mono stuff? | 00:59 |
| Dr_Willis | elexodus: you mean write 0's to the whole parittion. thus eraseingit totally? | 00:59 |
| muse | steven_: ya | 01:00 |
| kdjtar | can anyone help me with wine? I'm trying to compile it using './configure --enable-win64 CC=/usr/bin/gcc --enable-opengl', but when I execute 'make depend && make' after some time I get: http://yfrog.com/5lsnapshot4p | 01:00 |
| steven_ | Weird. I guess I just have a weird computer | 01:00 |
| coleys | steven_: We have the same card, my sound does the same thing... We use pulseaudio, | 01:00 |
| fehrp | hey all | 01:00 |
| elexodus | Dr_Willis: exactly. It's been corrupted, and the small portion of the partitian that I wrote 0's to is working fine now. | 01:00 |
| steven_ | Thank you! Can I just do a search for that through the package manager or whatever? | 01:00 |
| muse | steven_: have you turned up any of the panels? | 01:00 |
| steven_ | Aye | 01:00 |
| steven_ | Master is at 100% | 01:00 |
| muse | oh.. nevermind | 01:01 |
| Dr_Willis | elexodus: just dd to the whole parittion, or drive, you will then need to fdisk it to make parittions/filesystems on it. | 01:01 |
| fehrp | would you buy an X301 1.4GHz SSSD128GB 2GB RAM Intel GMA 4500HD for 1400EUR? | 01:01 |
| coleys | muse: The volume is wierd for our card, like there's 100% then there's 80% which is min you can't hear after that. | 01:01 |
| Dr_Willis | elexodus: similer to --> (BE CAREFULL) dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sda1 | 01:01 |
| muse | ok | 01:01 |
| kfizz | Since I upgraded to Jaunty, whenever I plug in my USB drive, a shortcut is not automatically put on the desktop; I liked that feature, how can I re-enable it? | 01:01 |
| LjL | !ot | fehrp | 01:01 |
| ubottu | fehrp: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics. Thanks! | 01:01 |
| bazhang | fehrp, ask in ##hardware | 01:01 |
| steven_ | Time to test this....*crosses fingers* | 01:01 |
| elexodus | Dr_Willis: I already did "sudo dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/hdb3 count=10000000000000000000", and all I got was about 4.5GB out of my TB... | 01:02 |
| Sealbhach1 | sebsebseb: sabdfl is OK with Mono.. see Ubuntu Open Week https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MeetingLogs/openweekJaunty/AskMark [QUOTE] yes, i believe mono is a reasonable runtime to include in a distribution like ubuntu [/QUOTE] | 01:02 |
| muse | coleys: well there are other meters that you can adjust that could up the vol.. like I can adjust surround meter and it turns it up. | 01:02 |
| coleys | steven_: Just be glad that our sounds works =p Did you have to add the three lines to your alsabase.conf? | 01:02 |
| Uuu | elexodus: without "count" it does not work properly? | 01:03 |
| steven_ | I have not added the lines yet | 01:03 |
| LjL | Sealbhach1: that is more than a bit offtopic, try #ubuntu-offtopic perhaps? | 01:03 |
| Dr_Willis | elexodus: thers no need for a count | 01:03 |
| Dr_Willis | elexodus: and you may want to do a bs=1024 to make it faster | 01:03 |
| elexodus | Dr_Willis: Ok, let me try this over again. | 01:03 |
| elexodus | Dr_Willis: what's the bs? | 01:03 |
| Dr_Willis | elexodus: and there are some commands that can actually 'check' a drive for errors.. like the badblocks command. | 01:03 |
| egc | hi | 01:04 |
| Dr_Willis | elexodus: blocksize. using bs=1024 will speed it up by like 200+% | 01:04 |
| Dr_Willis | :) | 01:04 |
| elexodus | Dr_Willis: how is the badblocks command used? | 01:04 |
| sebsebseb | Sealbhach1: that's nice, but people that use other distros, a lot of them won't agree with everything Shuttleworth agrees with, just a little something to think about. Just like everyone dosan't agree with everything Linus Torvalds or Richard Stallman says either. this is all rather off topic as well for this channel | 01:04 |
| macman | hey guys | 01:04 |
| elexodus | Dr_Willis: nice. | 01:04 |
| egc | where do failed ssh attempts get logged? | 01:04 |
| Dr_Willis | man badblocks - ive rarely had to mess with it. I think mkfs can auto-call badblocks with the rght options | 01:04 |
| macman | im trying to unmount my external hds on my desktop but it says only root can | 01:04 |
| macman | why is this ? | 01:04 |
| Sealbhach1 | sure | 01:04 |
| === jonnybbb__ is now known as jonny674 | ||
| thirsteh | egc: /var/log/auth.log | 01:04 |
| Dr_Willis | egc: check out the 'logwatch' command - it can summarize all ssh access :) | 01:05 |
| egc | thirsteh, Dr_Willis: thanks! | 01:05 |
| muse | macman: perhaps they are mounted root? | 01:05 |
| === jonny674 is now known as jonny92 | ||
| Dr_Willis | egc: its a NIfty command im glad i found. | 01:05 |
| macman | muse: strange cause i have them in my fstab yet when i boot up they dont' automount | 01:05 |
| apot | macman: running the context menu "Unmount Volume" might be better | 01:05 |
| apot | not sure if non-root users can run umount? | 01:06 |
| Dr_Willis | egc: 'logwatch --service sshd' :) | 01:06 |
| thirsteh | egc: You should be able to do something like: sudo grep "Failed password for" /var/log/auth.log | 01:06 |
| muse | macman: are you sure you did your mount correctly? | 01:06 |
| Dr_Willis | apot: if the fstab is set right they can unmount filesystems or mount them | 01:06 |
| steven_ | Alright. Well that didn't work. How do I add the three lines? | 01:06 |
| egc | awesome, trying it now | 01:07 |
| xcdfgkjhgcv | How do I remove the password for a user? | 01:07 |
| Linuz2009 | is there a way to make my computer perform faster? | 01:07 |
| xcdfgkjhgcv | Linuz2009: Lots of ways. | 01:07 |
| xcdfgkjhgcv | Linuz2009: Defragment, install more RAM, run less stuff. | 01:07 |
| egc | wow | 01:08 |
| xcdfgkjhgcv | Linuz2009: There's literally hundreds of ways. | 01:08 |
| egc | seems i have some interesting log messages ;) | 01:08 |
| Linuz2009 | xcdfgkjhgcv: how can I defrag my computer that's running ubuntu | 01:08 |
| bazhang | xcdfgkjhgcv, no need to defrag linux | 01:08 |
| xcdfgkjhgcv | Linuz2009: Overclocking is a popular way. | 01:08 |
| muse | Linuz2009: run win98 haha.. it runs at the speed of light. :) | 01:08 |
| Magician | you don't need to linuz: | 01:08 |
| Dr_Willis | overclocking in linux.. can be.. bad. | 01:08 |
| apot | i figured they can mount or unmount filesystems as a nod to having usb drives be useful. but specifically running umount from the console requires root? | 01:08 |
| bazhang | xcdfgkjhgcv, please stop with the bad advice; overclocking is not a good idea | 01:08 |
| Magician | not really if you do it from bios | 01:08 |
| xcdfgkjhgcv | Linuz2009 bazhang: All filesystems are susceptible to fragmentation. | 01:08 |
| Linuz2009 | windows is not safe for me. | 01:08 |
| xcdfgkjhgcv | bazhang: Yes it is. | 01:09 |
| xcdfgkjhgcv | bazhang: Overclocking IS a good idea. | 01:09 |
| Dr_Willis | apot: usb drives are handled by 'hal' so its not handled by the fstab | 01:09 |
| Linuz2009 | then I'll try to defrag my file system. | 01:09 |
| elky | xcdfgkjhgcv, please stop. | 01:09 |
| Magician | if you know what you are doing and have a custom setup then overclocking can be very useful | 01:09 |
| Dr_Willis | Linuz2009: it wont do you much good if at all. | 01:09 |
| fyn_ | I upgraded to jaunty just now and am having some dpkg issues, seems some package is putting weird stuff in status? This is beyond my apt/dpkg fu, how do I handle it? | 01:09 |
| fyn_ | dpkg: parse error, in file `/var/lib/dpkg/status' near line 36299 package `libftgl2': `Depends' field, reference to `libgcc1': version contains ` ' | 01:09 |
| xcdfgkjhgcv | elky: NO. | 01:09 |
| Linuz2009 | why? | 01:09 |
| xcdfgkjhgcv | Because I hate you all. | 01:09 |
| xcdfgkjhgcv | Bye. | 01:09 |
| Dr_Willis | Linuz2009: if your system is not fragmented.. it wont do any good. | 01:09 |

| worldcitizen09 | hi | 01:10 |
| apot | Dr_Willis: I assumed macman was trying to unmount his/her usb drive by umount | 01:10 |
| Linuz2009 | okay, fragment my computer by using what command? | 01:10 |
| worldcitizen09 | can someone help me with installing bsnl broadband on ubuntu 9 | 01:10 |
| Dr_Willis | apot: use fstab method.. OR let hal handle it. :) best to not mixx the 2 | 01:10 |
| === jonny92 is now known as jonny142 | ||
| Dr_Willis | Linuz2009: thers no standard DEFRAGment tool in ubuntu. none is needed normally. | 01:10 |
| progre55 | hi people! I know it's not the right place to ask, but please if you know how to edit the firefox config settings, help me out here | 01:10 |
| apot | Dr_Willis, i agree | 01:11 |
| Dr_Willis | Linuz2009: just forget about defragging linux drives. | 01:11 |
| Magician | linuz why do you need to defragment everything should be in order what is your true problem | 01:11 |
| Uuu | Linuz2009: if you have small RAM, try using more lightweight desktop environment - like XFCE, LXDE | 01:11 |
| Linuz2009 | okay, so what's another way to clean my computer? | 01:11 |
| Dr_Willis | Linuz2009: uninstall stuff... good luck | 01:11 |
| Magician | You should not need to if you did a clean install | 01:11 |
| vluser_ | can somebody help me? I can't print from my canon pixmap ip2600 | 01:11 |

| Dr_Willis | !clone | fyn_ | 01:12 |
| ubottu | fyn_: To replicate your packages selection on another machine (or restore it if re-installing), you can type « aptitude --display-format '%p' search '?installed!?automatic' > ~/my-packages », move the file "my-packages" to the other machine, and there type « sudo xargs aptitude --schedule-only install < my-packages ; sudo aptitude install » - See also !automate | 01:12 |

| Linuz2009 | I'm fine with my own RAM but how can I uninstall the printer program? | 01:12 |
| elexodus | Dr_Willis: Can I stop the write midway? | 01:12 |
| Uuu | progre55: UbuCommunityPower ;p | 01:12 |
| Dr_Willis | vluser_: not really - check the forums and cups.org | 01:12 |
| Magician | what is the name of the printer program | 01:13 |
| Dr_Willis | elexodus: sure why not.. the drive has been 'whiped' to death anyway... | 01:13 |

| Linuz2009 | I need to also uninstall other related packages, is that okay? | 01:13 |
| lukinfore | hi, is there .desktop file for mplayer somewhere in repos? | 01:13 |
| Dr_Willis | elexodus: im suprised the dding is fixing anything. | 01:13 |
| lukinfore | mean not gmplayer | 01:13 |
| Dr_Willis | lukinfore: a .dekstop file is just a little text file that defines the icon and other things.. mplayer has no 'gui' so it normally dosent have an icon. | 01:13 |
| muse | macman: does the mount point exist? Also if it is mounted in fstab you do know it won't show as an icon on the desktop? | 01:14 |
| Dr_Willis | lukinfore: you could find the gmplayer.desktop and copy it to mplayer.desktop and edit it if you want. | 01:14 |
| rainman | anybody who know software raids under linux, pls? | 01:14 |
| lukinfore | it defines opening isues | 01:14 |
| rocky_ | is there any solution to the slow flash on ubuntu? I'm using adobe's plugin | 01:14 |
| fyn_ | Dr_Willis: how will that help? | 01:14 |
| elexodus | Dr_Willis: I did the command before I could use bs=1024... it's just taking forever, and I'm not sure it's working. | 01:14 |
| Dr_Willis | fyn_: help what? :) i missed somthing? | 01:14 |
| mindframe- | can someone help me figure out why email notifications for evolution are not working? | 01:15 |
| Dr_Willis | elexodus: it will take a long time to do a several gb hard drive. | 01:15 |
| Dr_Willis | elexodus: how big a hd is it? | 01:15 |
| tuga3d | hi all | 01:15 |
| lukinfore | so say i have mplayer-nogui installed and mplayer as defaukt application for video - viseo would open in totem | 01:15 |
| muse | rocky_: install the lastest version of flash | 01:15 |
| elexodus | Dr_Willis: about 887GB... | 01:15 |
| rocky_ | muse: mine is very recent | 01:15 |
| Uuu | elexodus: check if the... light indicator of HDD lights/blinks | 01:15 |
| tuga3d | hi all, how can i make a package with scons? | 01:16 |
| elexodus | Dr_Willis: 1TB total. | 01:16 |
| muse | rocky_: is it 10? | 01:16 |
| fyn_ | Dr_Willis: i upgraded to jaunty and my status file is messed. Like so: dpkg: parse error, in file `/var/lib/dpkg/status' near line 36299 package `libftgl2': `Depends' field, reference to `libgcc1': version contains ` ' | 01:16 |
| rocky_ | yeah | 01:16 |
| rainman | mdadm, pls? | 01:16 |
| rocky_ | muse: yes, 10 | 01:16 |
| Dr_Willis | lukinfore: if you set it right it should open in mplayer. but that will be a video window with no controlls at all. | 01:16 |
| kinto | I have a very annoying problem, after my computer comes back from sleep, it does not reconnect to the LAN, no matter what I do? | 01:16 |
| fyn_ | Dr_Willis: I can't even purge that package to reinstall it. | 01:16 |
| lukinfore | what do you mean - set it right? | 01:16 |
| rocky_ | muse: video playback isn't as good on ubuntu as on windows when I use flash :( | 01:16 |
| muse | rocky_: hmm.. well that is the only improvement I can think of | 01:16 |
| lukinfore | i set it with xdg-mime | 01:16 |
| elexodus | Uuu: the light indicator reacts to the RAID Array set up. I'm running a Dell PowerEdge... So the RAID Array is hardwired in. The 1TB drive is entirely seperate. | 01:17 |
| Dr_Willis | fyn_: I recall deleteing that file befor and redoing the apt-get update/upgrade and it remade it.. I think.. (move it to another filename perhaps is safer) | 01:17 |
| PerryArmstrong | genii; ther??? | 01:17 |
| muse | rocky_: ya I found that aswell | 01:17 |
| fyn_ | Dr_Willis: cool, i'll give that a go. | 01:17 |
| g[r]eek | Hi guys I'm trying to apt-get update but I get a whole lot of "Error... 404 Not found" lines, yet my entries in sources.list are accurate | 01:17 |
| rocky_ | muse: :( it is really killing me | 01:17 |
| Dr_Willis | fyn_: be carefull in those dirs.. not to delete any dirs. :) i had an issue once where a empty dir was missing.. and goofed things up | 01:17 |
| muse | rocky_: what is your setup? ubuntu version. | 01:17 |
| rocky_ | muse: 9.04 | 01:18 |
| g[r]eek | I'm using Gutsy | 01:18 |
| steven_ | How do I access Perl in Ubuntu? | 01:18 |
| rocky_ | desktop | 01:18 |
| muse | 32 or 64? | 01:18 |
| fyn_ | Dr_Willis: seems like it really wants status :( | 01:18 |
| rocky_ | (but it is a laptop XD) | 01:18 |

| macman | guys | 01:18 |
| Dr_Willis | fyn_: check the forums is all i can suggest | 01:18 |
| macman | how do i install the kernal sources ? | 01:18 |
| fyn_ | :( | 01:19 |
| macman | 2.6.27-7-generic | 01:19 |
| fyn_ | Dr_Willis: Thanks for tryin! | 01:19 |
| Uuu | fyn_: this file can be repaired by hand | 01:19 |
| Dr_Willis | steven_: perl from the command line. :) | 01:19 |
| fyn_ | Uuu: So I can just nix that line and it'll be happy? | 01:19 |
| muse | rocky_: hmm.. I can't think of any improvements for you. Sorry.. | 01:19 |
| rocky_ | :( | 01:19 |
| fyn_ | Uuu: Or will it get confused that there's a package there without a status for it? | 01:19 |
| Uuu | fyn_: provided you'll not mess it up more ;] | 01:19 |
| steven_ | I tried that | 01:19 |
| rocky_ | I have to wonder how they manage to keep things focused on ubuntu with so few ops | 01:19 |
| steven_ | lol didn't work | 01:19 |
| Dr_Willis | fyn_: i would backup the original in case. | 01:19 |
| benje | macman: use the paquage in repository else you have to apply yourself ubuntu patch | 01:19 |
| fyn_ | Dr_Willis: haha no doubt :) | 01:19 |
| adnan | what is the difference between a "system" user and a "normal" user | 01:19 |
| Uuu | fyn_: so it won't see that package | 01:20 |
| palomer | hello | 01:20 |
| palomer | how do I make a bootable flash drive? | 01:20 |
| benje | adnan: what the user can do | 01:20 |
| g[r]eek | Are the Gutsy apt reposirtories still available online? | 01:20 |
| benje | hello palomer use unetbootin | 01:20 |
| fyn_ | Uuu: and then just reinstall that package and tell it to overwrite itself? | 01:20 |
| Dr_Willis | palomer: what do you wish to boot on it? you can use grub or syslinux | 01:20 |
| Uuu | fyn_: so later you can maybe reinstall that package, but it could be possible not to remove the package entry, but fix it somewhat | 01:20 |
| g[r]eek | Why would I get Error 404 Not found when doing apt-get update? | 01:20 |
| adnan | benje: is a deamon a "system" user | 01:20 |
| palomer | I just want to put ubuntu on a flash drive | 01:20 |
| palomer | and then install packages | 01:20 |
| benje | g[r]eek: check that your repository is ok | 01:20 |
| Dr_Willis | palomer: thats not quite as easially done. | 01:20 |
| steven_ | Is there like an official Ubuntu 9.04 pdf out there anywhere? | 01:21 |
| Uuu | fyn_: wait... what is the package? | 01:21 |
| Dr_Willis | palomer: unetbootin can make a bootabl ubuntu 'livecd' on a thumbdrive. | 01:21 |
| muse | ok cheers everyone.. jaunty rocks.. :P | 01:21 |
| sober_ | running xubuntu 9.04 here and having a problem it seems that my resolution setting is not being saved after a restart | 01:21 |

| duelboot | Anyone? 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! | 01:21 |
| rocky_ | bai bai | 01:21 |
| bazhang | g[r]eek, gutsy is end of life, you will need to upgrade for security fixes and support | 01:21 |
| Dr_Willis | palomer: you may want to check out ' http://pendrivelinux.org ' web site | 01:22 |
| adnan | is a deamon a "system" user | 01:22 |
| Dr_Willis | oops its http://pendrivelinux.com | 01:22 |
| kovacsleeve | How do I change the sound level of the beep the computer makes when I do something it doesnt like? | 01:22 |
| palomer | what about system > administration > create bootable usb drive? | 01:22 |
| palomer | create a usb startup disk | 01:23 |
| palomer | I meant | 01:23 |
| fyn_ | Uuu: libftgl2 | 01:23 |
| g[r]eek | bazhang, I just want to install one module, namely libapache2-mod-python - so I'm hoping I don't have to upgrade just to get this one module | 01:23 |
| fyn_ | Uuu: so it was in the depends line ... some binary noise wound up around libgcc. killed the depends line entirely and tiried reinstalling. now it's pissed at me :( apt-get --reinstall install libftgl2 | 01:24 |
| fyn_ | Reading package lists... Done | 01:24 |
| bazhang | g[r]eek, its not supported anymore please /msg ubottu upgrade for links | 01:24 |
| fyn_ | Segmentation faulty tree... 50% | 01:24 |
| Uuu | fyn_: i think that apt/dpkg can complain that there is no package (as it thought) but files are present, so you'll have to delete them manually in that case, if there is not an important system package (i'll check if it is) | 01:24 |
| benje | palomer: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LiveUsbPendrivePersistent | 01:24 |
| Uuu | oh | 01:24 |
| Dr_Willis | palomer: i dident see that menu item there any more on Jaunty.. but that command does seem to still exist.. | 01:24 |
| Dr_Willis | palomer: thats proberly the best way. :) | 01:24 |
| Dr_Willis | palomer: unetbootin is a similer command thats also handy | 01:25 |
| fyn_ | Uuu: now what? | 01:25 |
| Dr_Willis | palomer: aha - on jaunty its called 'usb-startupdisk -creator' | 01:25 |
| vigo | steven_: I do not know how 'official' it is, but here , http://www.soft82.com/download/linux/ubuntu/, still looking, and note the links to Canonical. | 01:26 |
| Uuu | fyn_: so apt dies... strange. i | 01:26 |
| macman | guys i think installed the wrong linux headers .. how can i fix | 01:27 |
| Uuu | fyn_: i'm checking something right now and maybe i'll find something. | 01:27 |
| g[r]eek | How do I check my version of linux/ | 01:27 |
| steven_ | I type "perl" in the commandline but it is not bringing it up. The cursor just moves to the next line and starts blinking. Surely there is more to it than that | 01:27 |
| mattgirv | uname -r | 01:27 |
| bazhang | lsb_release -a g[r]eek | 01:27 |
| g[r]eek | No I mean 7.10 | 01:27 |
| mattgirv | steven_, Thats the perl interpreter | 01:27 |
| g[r]eek | thanks | 01:27 |
| fyn_ | Uuu: I was able to dpkg -i that packaage again from the package cache but apt-get upgrade is still telling me 'sementation faulty tree" | 01:28 |
| Dr_Willis | steven_: perl has no gui | 01:28 |
| steven_ | really? That simple eh? As long as it works | 01:28 |
| g[r]eek | Ok thanks for help cheers | 01:28 |
| fyn_ | Uuu: Is that a tree I can rebuild somehow? | 01:28 |
| mattgirv | steven_, Yep, you can parse files through it that have perl code already written | 01:28 |
| mattgirv | use whatever editor you like :) | 01:28 |
| mattgirv | try Anjuta | 01:28 |
| steven_ | Where is a good place to find documentation for learning Perl? Yes, I want to start learning. heh | 01:28 |
| mattgirv | learn.perl.org ;) | 01:28 |
| alienkid10 | what's a good ubuntu netbook?(brand, model, URL) | 01:28 |
| steven_ | k, thanks | 01:29 |
| fyn_ | Uuu: tried apt-get update which worked fine, but upgrade is still whining about a faulty tree | 01:29 |
| lastman | perl -e 'print "Hello world\n"' :-) | 01:29 |
| steven_ | You guys have been most helpful. Thanks for putting up with me haha | 01:29 |
| Uuu | `Depends' field, reference to | 01:29 |
| Uuu | 02:16:14 `libgcc1': version contains ` ' | 01:29 |
| mattgirv | perl rox | 01:29 |
| tuga3d | i just buil a software (yafaray) how do i make a package out of it? | 01:29 |
| mattgirv | good choice ;) | 01:29 |
| Dr_Willis | steven_: Perl is documented at 100000000000's of web sites and books | 01:29 |
| Uuu | oh, paste in console rules ;/ | 01:29 |
| tsuber2000 | using xubuntu on acer netbook | 01:29 |
| steven_ | After Perl I intend to learn Lua | 01:29 |

| Uuu | fyn_: co it said before: libgcc1': version contains ` ', yes? | 01:30 |
| sebsebseb | steven_: Python is a great one to learn | 01:30 |
| R0b0t1 | Hello, I'm trying to compile something but it gives me a linking error saying crti.o is missing... I've read that this is supposed to be part of lib6c-dev, which I have. | 01:30 |
| mattgirv | sebsebseb, hush :D | 01:30 |
| sebsebseb | steven_: Ubuntu uses quite a bit of Python also | 01:30 |
| duelboot | Anyone? 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! | 01:30 |
| fyn_ | rm /var/cache/apt/*.bin ... kills my package cache so update should fix it now, lets see :) | 01:30 |
| thirsteh | yeah, I was about to say; Python is a great language to learn | 01:30 |
| sebsebseb | mattgirv: you tried to convert this guy to Perl? when I wasn't paying attention? | 01:30 |
| steven_ | Perhaps I'll learn Python next and Lua after. | 01:30 |
| Uuu | fyn_: so maybe recover that file from backup (hope you made one) and just fix the line | 01:30 |
| mattgirv | sebsebseb, nope he was already converted when i spoke to him | 01:30 |
| JamesD772 | im on an Acer Aspire and i am trying to start ath0, the device is listed in iwconfig and i have followed all intsrcutions on the forum correctly. is there a command for terminal to start in manually? | 01:30 |
| mattgirv | :) | 01:30 |
| vigo | sreven_: also here: http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/Ubuntu_(Linux)_Guide/Introduction, is a wiki, so I am uncertain of the sources, but looks like one I will get. | 01:30 |
| sebsebseb | mattgirv: oh ok | 01:30 |
| fyn_ | Uuu: yup, but it wasn't a null, it was several high asciii characters ... i tried fixing that line, that's how i got this far :) | 01:30 |
| Dr_Willis | steven_: for learning a 'first' language.. you might want to do Python First. its a bit easier to learn i think. | 01:31 |
| kronopio | coleys: I am back | 01:31 |
| steven_ | I know some C++, but alright | 01:31 |
| fyn_ | Uuu: bah ... even killing the package cache I'm still getting a faulty tree | 01:31 |
| thirsteh | steven_: you probably want to learn Python first. Not that Python is necessarily better than Perl, but it's a lot easier to learn | 01:31 |
| Dr_Willis | steven_: Yoy can expand python with C++ :) | 01:31 |
| * malex just upgraded to jaunty and much to his dismay found that suspend to RAM didn't work. Are there known glitches I need to be aware of? Thanks. | 01:31 | |
| Uuu | fyn_: how did you "fixed" it? | 01:31 |
| Uuu | fyn_: deleted that line? | 01:31 |
| steven_ | Cool | 01:31 |
| fyn_ | Uuu: What does apt mean when it says tree? | 01:31 |
| JamesD772 | im on an Acer Aspire and i am trying to start ath0, the device is listed in iwconfig and i have followed all intsrcutions on the forum correctly. is there a command for terminal to start in manually? | 01:31 |
| R0b0t1 | Hello, I'm trying to compile something but it gives me a linking error saying crti.o is missing... I've read that this is supposed to be part of lib6c-dev, which I have. What could I try? | 01:32 |
| Dr_Willis | steven_: python is more 'structured' and easier to grasp the fundamentals.. | 01:32 |
| mattgirv | in what context fyn_ ? | 01:32 |
| sebsebseb | fyn_: you installed tree? | 01:32 |
| R0b0t1 | JamesD772: Try eth1 instead. | 01:32 |
| sebsebseb | !find tree | 01:32 |
| ubottu | Found: device-tree-compiler, konqueror-plugin-domtreeviewer, libhtml-tree-perl, python2.5, python2.6 (and 38 others) | 01:32 |
| Uuu | fyn_: i think it is 'segmentation fault' with 'tree' from 'reading tree' or so | 01:32 |
| sebsebseb | !info tree | 01:32 |
| ubottu | tree (source: tree): displays directory tree, in color. In component universe, is optional. Version 1.5.2.1-1 (jaunty), package size 29 kB, installed size 96 kB | 01:32 |
| JamesD772 | try what? | 01:32 |
| fyn_ | Uuu: yes, i deleted the depends line and I reinstalled that package from the deb I had in the package cache. | 01:32 |
| JamesD772 | its for wirelesss | 01:32 |
| fyn_ | mattgirv: "segmentation faulty tree" as an error from dpg | 01:32 |
| fyn_ | mattgirv: sorry, apt-get | 01:32 |
| Dr_Willis | JamesD772: I used the netbook remix on my acer aspire one. wireless worked from the start. | 01:32 |
| fyn_ | mattgirv: is that a tree i can rebuild | 01:33 |
| centaur5 | Does anybody know if supergrubdisk supports ext4? | 01:33 |
| android60 | can someone please help, I just built a lightweight machine for a NAS but when I go to install ubuntu from the cd menu, I just keep seeing errors like this http://pastebin.com/m7c9abf9a | 01:33 |
| Uuu | fyn_: so maybe recover that file and line Depends: and write in that place a fake dependency, something like "libglib" | 01:33 |
| mattgirv | Fyn_, run this ' sudo rm /var/cache/apt/*.bin ' | 01:33 |
| sebsebseb | centaur5: maybe | 01:33 |
| JamesD772 | its listed in iwconfig but not when i click on the networking icon | 01:33 |
| mattgirv | then apt-get update | 01:33 |
| sebsebseb | centaur5: ,but Grub and the file system aren't linked as such | 01:33 |
| mattgirv | :) | 01:33 |
| fyn_ | mattgirv: ya i did that and then an apt-get update, it's still doing it | 01:33 |
| Uuu | fyn_: what a play on system files ;] | 01:33 |
| mattgirv | close it and try again | 01:33 |
| chrispitzer | is there any usability testing like "silverback" available for linux? | 01:33 |
| Dr_Willis | JamesD772: rightclick, or left click. try both. | 01:33 |
| R0b0t1 | Hello, I'm trying to compile something but it gives me a linking error saying crti.o is missing... I've read that this is supposed to be part of lib6c-dev, which I have. What could I try? | 01:33 |
| dan | Anyone know why I've multiple Novell IPs in my firewall log? | 01:33 |
| WebcamWonder | Ok, somehow, the state of my capslock is screwed. I accidentally hit the capslock key, and then turned it off, only to realize now that I actually need to turn on the capslock to type in lower case :S | 01:33 |
| weasel8 | Ok, so my sister's laptop is running ubuntu w/ xfce4 and all of a sudden, one day, the window manager disappears. the rest of xfce works fine, all programs working, but there are no window titles, no resizing or moving windows, etc...click on the "Window Manager" button in Xfce settings and it says "These settings are not available with your current window manager (unknown)." Does anybody know what's up? | 01:33 |
| KyleK | centaur5: it might be able to read it as ext2 or 3 | 01:33 |
| sebsebseb | centaur5: altough there was something in the release notes about people who upgrade and then convert Ext3 to Ext4, and then having to put on a later Grub | 01:34 |
| JamesD772 | it says Wireless Connections: | 01:34 |
| steven_ | What is a great site to start learning Python? I have found a few, but anyone have some recommendations? | 01:34 |
| centaur5 | sebsebseb, Well I need it reinstalled since I upgraded from ext3 to ext4 after installing Jaunty. So if I install it from supergrubdisk should it get me up and going? | 01:34 |
| JamesD772 | *Wireless Networks: | 01:34 |
| Dr_Willis | steven_: python.org :) | 01:34 |
| JamesD772 | my bad | 01:34 |
| Uuu | fyn_: i'm interesting, however this info is not valuable for me fpr this problem: you upgraded Ubuntu? From what version? | 01:34 |
| steven_ | Yeah, I found that one | 01:34 |
| Dr_Willis | steven_: proberly books on it in the package manager also | 01:34 |
| fyn_ | Uuu: intrepid to jaunty | 01:34 |
| JamesD772 | theres no way too force it | 01:34 |
| JamesD772 | "on" | 01:35 |
| sebsebseb | steven_: http://www.diveintopython.org/ | 01:35 |
| centaur5 | sebsebseb, Sounds like something I'll need to check out. Darn, I should have left it at ext3. :) | 01:35 |
| steven_ | Ubuntu 9.04 comes with full Python right? | 01:35 |
| Dr_Willis | wow - thers a lot pf python related packages.. | 01:35 |
| mattgirv | pretty sure its installed as standard | 01:35 |
| sebsebseb | steven_: I guess so | 01:35 |
| Dr_Willis | !find python | 01:35 |
| ubottu | Found: bittornado, diveintopython, diveintopython-zh, gimp, idle-python2.6 (and 1031 others) | 01:35 |
| fyn_ | mattgirv: does this mean that the tree that update is sending me is making some subprocess of apt segfault? wtf? | 01:35 |
| Uuu | fyn_: tried with my advice of fixing depends entry/ | 01:35 |
| Dr_Willis | 1031 packages relateing to python. :) | 01:35 |
| Uuu | ? | 01:35 |
| sebsebseb | centaur5: check the 9.04 release notes out, it mentions your issue it seems | 01:35 |
| Eneerge | what would cause a system to be extremely slow when trying to play video after performing video encoding... Video plays fine after reboot. I do a new encoding, and i have to reboot afterwards in order to play it. The cpu is @ most 4% load, but the video is very jumpy. I tried issuing a drop_caches 3 which cleared my cache, but the video playback is still slow. is there anything else i can do besides rebooting to get vide | 01:35 |
| Eneerge | o playback back to normal? | 01:35 |
| Linuz2009 | how to uninstall evolution mail. | 01:35 |
| JamesD772 | so theres nothing i can doo? | 01:35 |
| fyn_ | Uuu: yes, that problem is solved and dpkg is happy, but now my apt is screwed with this 'segmentation faulty tree' | 01:36 |
| mattgirv | Fyn_, usually its some outdated or corrupt file that causes it | 01:36 |
| Yanick_ | hi, is there a subversion plugin for Ubuntu, kinda like Turtoise, because Eclipse just start to p**s me off :) | 01:36 |
| mattgirv | Fyn, that command removes those files | 01:36 |
| Uuu | fyn_: that fault was AFTER I wrote that | 01:36 |
| fyn_ | mattgirv: anything aside from the two bin files there that'd be loaded? i did rm them ... actually found that on the forums before you mentioend even. | 01:36 |
| centaur5 | Thanks sebsebseb I'll have to do that. | 01:36 |
| sebsebseb | centaur5: ok good luck | 01:36 |
| Uuu | fyn_: so: did you add a fake dependency? | 01:36 |
| [flaming] | what's the channel that it sends yo uto if you're in a proxy? | 01:36 |
| JamesD772 | Does anyone have any input?? | 01:37 |
| Uuu | fyn_: (maybe you missed my text) | 01:37 |
| dkulchenko | In Gnome Do, the main image (obviously an enlarged image of the Tracker icon) is shown extremely pixelated. How can I replace that image? | 01:37 |
| sebsebseb | !proxy | 01:37 |
| ubottu | 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. | 01:37 |
| fyn_ | Uuu: no, i killed the depends line entirely and then reinstalled the package | 01:37 |
| Uuu | fyn_: so you missed my text ;] | 01:37 |
| mattgirv | ah, hm well do check your dependencies are up to date like Uuu said, perhaps add the sources manually into your source list | 01:37 |
| vigo | steven_: also the Community Documentation covers a mass of data and other tweaks, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromLinux <<is like a starting point. | 01:37 |
| Uuu | fyn_: so maybe recover that file and line Depends: and write in that place a fake dependency, something like "libglib" | 01:37 |
| JamesD772 | im on an Acer Aspire and i am trying to start ath0, the device is listed in iwconfig and i have followed all intsrcutions on the forum correctly. is there a command for terminal to start in manually? | 01:37 |
| Eneerge | anyone have an idea? | 01:37 |
| cappicard | heya. what could I do to apache2 to prevent it from jacking up my ping times from 21ms to 3000ms? | 01:37 |
| fyn_ | Uuu: the status file is fine, but apt keeps getting a faulty pkgcache from update somehow | 01:38 |
| Stepan1 | Is there a way I can build a macro for Ubuntu? I want it to 1) Kill a program, 2) Launch the program. Skype freezes up often with 9.04 and I'm stuck until they fix it. | 01:38 |
| sebsebseb | Stepan1: shell scripts SSH scripts | 01:38 |
| sebsebseb | Stepan1: that's more advanced stuff | 01:38 |
| mattgirv | cappicard: Set up traffic shaping so apache2 only has access to part of your bandwidth | 01:38 |
| Linuz2009 | how to uninstall evolution mail. | 01:38 |
| sebsebseb | Stepan1: you can kill a program with killall prograname or xkill and click on it | 01:38 |
| Uuu | fyn_: It is not connected with that file? (just asking, i don't know0 | 01:39 |
| cappicard | hmm... | 01:39 |
| sebsebseb | Linuz2009: why? | 01:39 |
| mattgirv | otherwise when its accessed itll probably spike your connection if you are on a regular adsl | 01:39 |
| cappicard | i'm on cable. | 01:39 |
| WebcamWonder | Stepan1: Skype hasn't been worked on for quite sometime now. I wouldn't expect them to fix anything. As far as the script is concerned: a simple, pkill skype && skype | 01:39 |
| cappicard | but yeah, i see what you mean | 01:39 |
| sebsebseb | Stepan1: .sh files yeah | 01:39 |
| Linuz2009 | sebsebseb: I never used it | 01:39 |
| Uuu | fyn_: sudo apt-get clean ? | 01:39 |
| vluser | help!!! | 01:39 |
| fyn_ | Uuu: wow ... i deleted it for like a fourth time but this time update worked. maybe someone goofed on the other end? | 01:39 |
| Stepan1 | sebsebseb: I will look it up, thanks | 01:39 |
| dan | Anyone know why Novell IP addresses are in my firewall log? | 01:39 |
| mattgirv | cappicard: yeah even so, i just mean anything with a limited upload rate | 01:39 |
| Linuz2009 | sebsebseb: I've always checked my mail online | 01:40 |
| sebsebseb | Linuz2009: yeah | 01:40 |
| sebsebseb | Linuz2009: Ubuntu comes with some stuff that not everyone uses | 01:40 |
| NoSoundOnUbuntu | hi | 01:40 |
| weasel8 | any ideas? | 01:40 |
| vluser | any onw knoe of any docs on setting up a canon ip2600 printer?' | 01:40 |
| Uuu | fyn_: deleted "it" - the file? | 01:40 |
| Stepan1 | WebcamWonder: Skype was designed for 8.10 and I havent had problems with it. Either way, i dont think its a skype issue. | 01:40 |
| sebsebseb | Linuz2009: ,but you don't really need to get rid of those, because Linux programs hardly take up any space anyway | 01:40 |
| fyn_ | mattgirv: Uuu and Dr_Willis --- thanks! big help, all. | 01:40 |
| Linuz2009 | sebsebseb: so you mean un-installing them wouldn't make the system stable? | 01:40 |
| JamesD772 | so theres no way to MMAKE ath0 work!? | 01:40 |
| sebsebseb | Linuz2009: yep it would make no difference | 01:41 |
| NoSoundOnUbuntu | I have no audio on my laptop :( | 01:41 |
| Uuu | fyn_: gr33ts from Poland ;] glad I could help. | 01:41 |
| fyn_ | Uuu: it was the pkgcache.bin and its friend, which were making apt segfault | 01:41 |
| vluser | any why does ubuntu terminal say "no such file or directory" when the file does indeed exist? | 01:41 |
| sebsebseb | Linuz2009: just don't use the apps you don't want, but if you really want to uninstall yes you can do that as well | 01:41 |
| JamesD772 | vluser: | 01:41 |
| benje | JamesD772: do you read the doc ? https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AspireOne | 01:41 |
| JamesD772 | caps sensitve | 01:41 |
| Uuu | fyn_: please get assured everything works to make me happy ;) | 01:41 |
| JamesD772 | benje: thats what i followed to a T | 01:41 |
| Linuz2009 | sebsebseb: Okay, but I'm trying to clean out my PC | 01:41 |
| sebsebseb | Linuz2009: Ubuntu is not stable on your computer??? | 01:41 |
| vluser | JamesD772, I'm trying to run /usr/bin/tpsetup | 01:41 |
| vluser | the file is there | 01:41 |
| sebsebseb | Linuz2009: that's so Windows | 01:41 |
| fyn_ | Uuu: Much apreciation from Canada. I've several Polish friends and always admire a country that has a holiday for water fights ;) | 01:41 |
| vluser | but when I execute it, it says it's not there | 01:41 |
| sebsebseb | Linuz2009: you can have loads of apps installed in Ubuntu, without issues :) | 01:41 |
| mattgirv | fyn_, Thought it was :D happy ubuntuing | 01:42 |
| * NoSoundOnUbuntu takes a number for help with audio | 01:42 | |
| sebsebseb | Linuz2009: Ubuntu and other Desktop Linux distros are designed to have loads of programs installed, unlike Windows | 01:42 |
| Linuz2009 | sebsebseb: can I use two browser as well? | 01:42 |
| sebsebseb | Linuz2009: of course | 01:42 |

| sebsebseb | !browsers | Linuz2009 | 01:43 |
| ubottu | Linuz2009: Browsers available for Ubuntu: Firefox (GTK, Gecko engine), Konqueror (KDE/Qt, KHTML engine), Epiphany (GTK, Gecko engine), Dillo (GTK), w3m (terminal-based), Links2 (terminal-based or graphical, see !man page), edbrowse (command-line), Opera (Qt, proprietary) | 01:43 |
| cappicard | im going to try setting up dd-wrt to limit my uplink bandwidth | 01:43 |
| mattgirv | fyn_, Yeah its the last thing you want after an update as well :) | 01:43 |
| Linuz2009 | sebsebseb: swift fox is a third party application | 01:43 |
| mattgirv | fyn_, At least you'll be safe for a good while now :p | 01:43 |
| benje | cappicard: do yuou try conntrack and qdisk ? | 01:43 |
| sebsebseb | Linuz2009: and there's also Lynx which is text based | 01:43 |
| fyn_ | mattgirv: heh, i can only hope! | 01:43 |
| sebsebseb | Linuz2009: yes I heard of it | 01:43 |
| Uuu | but what is pkgcache.bin? | 01:43 |
| sebsebseb | Linuz2009: sounds like a Windows app lol | 01:43 |
| cappicard | i do not | 01:43 |
| sebsebseb | Linuz2009: or some edited version of Firefox | 01:43 |

| Yanick_ | I've just downloaded a .deb file, but I cannot install it from the package manager | 01:44 |
| fyn_ | Uuu: I think it's where apt stores the list of apckages that it can get from its sources | 01:44 |
| Yanick_ | can anyone help? | 01:44 |
| sebsebseb | vigo: indeed and same for Galeon | 01:44 |
| Linuz2009 | sebsebseb: you can download it for linux | 01:44 |
| sebsebseb | Linuz2009: link? | 01:44 |
| === Splappy is now known as roflwoffol | ||
| sebsebseb | Linuz2009: that's something else | 01:44 |
| sebsebseb | Linuz2009: make sure you only get stuff from trusted sources | 01:44 |
| benje | Yanick_: what does it say ? | 01:44 |
| NoSoundOnUbuntu | Device = Intel 82801DB-ICH4 (Alsa Mixer) | 01:44 |
| Stepan1 | WebcamWonder: right, but still not horrible. There are some programs that dont get updated for years. I guess it would have been better if they build it right from the start but I think Ubuntu has some fault in this. Do you know of an alternative for Skype (but still using skype username and stuff)? I know a website imo.im but i was looking for a program. | 01:44 |
| benje | Yanick_: do you try with gdebi or dpkg- i name.deb ? | 01:45 |
| Linuz2009 | sebsebseb: well I don't know if that website proves to be trusted. | 01:45 |
| sebsebseb | Linuz2009: also ,because of market share reasons, I think it's best people use Firefox :) | 01:45 |
| sebsebseb | Linuz2009: however sometimes Ubuntu's Firefox goes bad | 01:45 |
| NoSoundOnUbuntu | that is correct, right? WebcamWonder | 01:45 |
| sebsebseb | Linuz2009: at least for some us, me included | 01:45 |
| Yanick_ | benje: I tried with the user interface, but the file is greyed. when I download the file from FF, it says that the extension is not properly set.. or something | 01:45 |
| Linuz2009 | sebsebseb: but I've heard swift fox enhances processes | 01:45 |
| WebcamWonder | Stepan1: Nope. The Skype protocol is proprietary and the state of audio/video conferencing tools on Linux is not particularly well | 01:45 |
| mattgirv | Nah its nice to have an alternative to Firefox though, people shouldn't rely on one browser | 01:45 |
| fyn_ | OH WOW | 01:46 |
| Yanick_ | benje: I'm not familiar with command line package installation | 01:46 |
| WebcamWonder | NoSoundOnUbuntu: That is your sound card I presume... did you check whether the sound was not already muted? | 01:46 |
| vigo | sebsebseb: I used Galeon on some other distro, I liked it also. | 01:46 |
| sebsebseb | Linuz2009: Seamonkey is good as well. before Firefox there was the Mozilla Suite, but that didn't really gain much of the market and so died and along come Firefox and Thunderbird. Mozilla Suite lives on as Seamonkey | 01:46 |
| Stepan1 | WebcamWonder: figures | 01:46 |
| sebsebseb | Linuz2009: a bit like how Netscape lived on as Mozilla, once Microsoft nearly completly destroyed them | 01:46 |
| vigo | Seamonkey ROCKS | 01:46 |
| fyn_ | so all that was done from my laptop since i had to make dpkg work to get my ati drivers in to get logged in because it wouldn't let me ctrl alt f1 or bksp anymore | 01:46 |
| benje | Yanick_: download it and try under terminal if it's an apt:// klink yoiu need gdebi to install with one click under navigator | 01:46 |
| cappicard | there. dd-wrt is now working fine. I'm limiting uplink to 384kbps instead of full 484 | 01:47 |

| tuv0k | R0b0t1, search synaptic for 32libs | 01:55 |

| sebsebseb | Linuz2009: ,but I would sudo apt-get purge the stuff it is saying is stuff to autoremove | 01:56 |

| vigo | yogeshwarng: It is just an Interface, preferences thing, I am certain that some have opinions to that might contradict this one, but is basically just a GUI thing. | 01:58 |
| sebsebseb | yogeshwarang: if your new to Desktop GNU/LInux I would suggest you try all of these things | 01:58 |
| benje | playa7071: after that you can do what you want in this directory | 01:58 |
| tuv0k | I suggest this thing called google | 01:58 |
| IndyGunFreak | i've not used xfce in ages | 01:58 |

| yogeshwarang | but i counldnt find, may be my search words are wrong | 02:00 |
| Uuu | fyn_: or something with the driver | 02:00 |
| sebsebseb | Linuz2009: this is not Windows, where if you clutter up your system to much, it goes bad and slow | 02:00 |
| NoSoundOnUbuntu | the first thing I did with this laptop was install ubuntu on my new HDD, I do not have an MP3 on it | 02:00 |
| tarsin | hello, i recently replaced my NIC, when ubuntu booted up it assigned it as eth1. I removed the reference to my old NIC in /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules, and set the new NIC to use eth0, and then rebooted. now my NIC is assigned to eth0 as i intended. However when i am in X and i use Gnome's Network Connections app, it shows 2 "auto eth0" connections. My /etc/network/interfaces files only shows "auto lo ... iface lo inet loopback" Further, I c | 02:00 |

| esbat | gedit 有什么办法可以快速移动光标到匹配的{}处么？ | 02:00 |
| sebsebseb | yogeshwarang: wubi :( | 02:00 |
| mattgirv | thats a statement | 02:00 |
| yogeshwarang | by using windows installer | 02:00 |
| benje | eseven73: you don't do a anonymous access and you restric login to userftp | 02:00 |
| yogeshwarang | yes, | 02:00 |
| sebsebseb | yogeshwarang: only good for trying | 02:00 |
| ArmitageX | Is it possible to dual boot Ubuntu on a Mac v10.4.11? | 02:00 |
| eseven73 | benje, I tried that, no luck | 02:00 |
| sebsebseb | yogeshwarang: woudn't recommend it for long term Ubuntu useage | 02:00 |

| eseven73 | no user works | 02:01 |
| sebsebseb | ArmitageX: of course | 02:01 |
| Linuz2009 | sebsebseb: hmmmm, its a habit | 02:01 |
| sebsebseb | ArmitageX: ,but I am not sure how | 02:01 |
| eseven73 | I mean no user works at all | 02:01 |
| fyn_ | Uuu: So from console if I type startx it goes into X fine and is extramore fucked in the keyboard once I'm in ... not just three characters but randomly adding ctrl and other fun stuff | 02:01 |
| ArmitageX | I am not finding any guides | 02:01 |
| vluser | IndyGunFreak, I have VectorLinux and Slackware installed on another drive | 02:01 |
| NoSoundOnUbuntu | WebcamWonder, is there a place to quickly get a wav of MP3 | 02:01 |
| yogeshwarang | but i tried to install kubuntu before.. it got struck up | 02:01 |
| benje | eseven73: see config exemple here http://doc.ubuntu-fr.org/proftpd | 02:01 |
| yogeshwarang | then i installed ubuntu | 02:01 |
| IndyGunFreak | vluser: oh ok. | 02:01 |
| Linuz2009 | sebsebseb: since before I install ubuntu, I began to look for new ways to speed up my computer | 02:01 |
| sebsebseb | Linuz2009: think of Ubuntu like a motoerbike, and Windows as a car | 02:01 |
| vluser | IndyGunFreak, so I need to copy the kernels to the ubuntu /boot? | 02:01 |
| yogeshwarang | but i am seeing two ubuntu in the loader? | 02:01 |
| eseven73 | benje, I wouldn't leave it running anyways, Id only use it long enough for wordpress to install a plugin | 02:01 |
| sebsebseb | Linuz2009: there are differences see, but they use the same hardware/road | 02:01 |
| WebcamWonder | NoSoundOnUbuntu: Try the mp3 first | 02:01 |
| IndyGunFreak | vluser: i'm far from a grub expert, really don't know | 02:01 |
| yogeshwarang | how can i configure the loader? | 02:01 |
| Linuz2009 | sebsebseb: thanks for the memo | 02:02 |
| mattgirv | sebsebseb, nice analogy | 02:02 |
| sebsebseb | Linuz2009: in fact there's a good article on there about Linux not being Windows | 02:02 |
| NoSoundOnUbuntu | ok, I will try to find an MP3 to dl | 02:02 |
| sebsebseb | Linuz2009: pretty long also | 02:02 |

| Linuz2009 | sebsebseb: also I want to ask you about another thing, if linux can't get infected is it because window is such a wide spread OS that lure hackers and Linux is a OS that keeps its popularity low. | 02:03 |
| eseven73 | sebsebseb, its !lnw :) | 02:04 |

| FIRED | hello someone answere | 02:04 |
| cybotron | sebsebseb is linux even better than windows 95? (sorry to interrupt) | 02:04 |
| eseven73 | /msg ubottu search <word> works almost everytime | 02:04 |
| mattgirv | I don't want that :p | 02:04 |
| sebsebseb | cybotron: are you joking? | 02:04 |
| yogeshwarang | Linuz2009: i saw a big difference, after login usually it takes more than 5 mins to start up all the necessary prgs. but in ubuntu takes only 5 sec | 02:04 |
| cybotron | sebsebseb yeah kind of being silly | 02:05 |
| coleys | =p | 02:05 |
| eseven73 | woah | 02:05 |
| Meinmartini | LOL | 02:05 |
| mattgirv | Nice bloke | 02:05 |
| mattgirv | :D | 02:05 |
| * IndyGunFreak sighs | 02:05 | |
| coleys | haha lol... | 02:05 |
| eseven73 | someone peed in his wheaties | 02:05 |
| dooner | cybotron, better is subjective. I happen to think most any *nix is way better than any version of Winders :) | 02:06 |
| tuv0k | wow a freeper found #ubuntu | 02:06 |
| tarsin | what is a freeper? | 02:06 |
| coleys | dooner: well spoken :) | 02:06 |
| mattgirv | If you want an alternative for Windows 95, try BeOS | 02:06 |
| mattgirv | :) | 02:06 |
| IndyGunFreak | tuv0k: it happens... usually its someone from another linux distro, that doesn't like ubuntu for whatever reason | 02:06 |
| benje | eseven73: see the log of proftpd | 02:06 |
| JamesD772 | sudo nano /etc/NetworkManager/nm-system-settings.conf <---can someone copy and paste that who is on wireless PLEASE | 02:06 |
| tuv0k | IndyGunFreak, amazing | 02:06 |
| kronopio | freeper= freerepublic.com -er | 02:06 |
| Linuz2009 | yogeshwarang: microsoft kept making patches but what's the use? | 02:07 |
| sebsebseb | cybotron: blah de blah I should sort my password out for freenode again, not sure if you got my message | 02:07 |
| cybotron | sebsebseb, linuz2009 linux will never be as much popular as windows like apple computers with their osx will be the choice of not everyone. | 02:07 |
| IndyGunFreak | tuv0k: it is pretty stupid.. but Ubuntu users do it in other channels to.. its not a one way street. | 02:07 |
| eseven73 | benje, will do thanks :) | 02:07 |
| mattgirv | Its probably those Gentoo freaks | 02:07 |
| mattgirv | :D | 02:07 |
| kronopio | I am confused about gnupg | 02:07 |
| sebsebseb | cybotron: Windows 95 was alright at the time, but it hasn't been suppourted by Microsoft for years, and Wine can run most of Windows 95's programs I think | 02:07 |
| tuv0k | IndyGunFreak, that is sad | 02:07 |
| usser | JamesD772, http://pastebin.com/f3278775e | 02:07 |
| sebsebseb | cybotron: I disagree | 02:07 |
| cybotron | i don't know how to get private messages on irssi | 02:07 |
| sebsebseb | cybotron: it may take 10 years or so | 02:07 |
| Linuz2009 | cybotron: why not is it because its free? | 02:07 |
| sebsebseb | cybotron: ,but Ubuntu will probably be like the new Windows when it comes to market share, as in the one that has most users | 02:07 |

| IndyGunFreak | tuv0k: indeed.. i've saw Debian Ops flip out and ban a user for even mentioning ubuntu | 02:07 |

| bazhang | lets take chat to #ubuntu-offtopic please | 02:08 |
| tuv0k | IndyGunFreak, now that i'm not surprised about | 02:08 |

| dw | hey there. does ubuntu come with a functional java plugin for firefox by default? | 02:08 |

| dw | benje: is it sun java or 'freetard' java? :P | 02:09 |
| cybotron | sebsebseb i think it would be cool if something completely new appear in sight...like alive os with its intellect | 02:09 |
| sebsebseb | IndyGunFreak: they will if it gains enough market share | 02:09 |
| steven_ | It does not come with Java | 02:09 |

| crdlb | ArmitageX: is it PPC? you didn't specify | 02:09 |

| ArmitageX | yeah ppc | 02:10 |
| cybotron | sebsebseb sthg unlike winblows or linux. but apparently linux and mac osx are the best os i encountered | 02:10 |

| dooner | eseven73, any folders? or any folders outside of your homedir ? | 02:33 |
| NoSoundOnUbuntu | benje, http://paste.ubuntu.com/163216/ | 02:33 |
| WIGGMPk | benje: nope, it just doesnt show up.. restarting does the same thing.. its weird.. it shows up when I select Places > <home folder> | 02:33 |

| NoSoundOnUbuntu | benji, WebCam wanted me to play an MP3 to see if I could hear audio by playing it | 02:34 |
| benje | yes that it but not need to read mp3 using wav is better for test | 02:34 |
| dooner | eseven73, do the permissions on that directory allow the user you are logging on as to to access it? What is the error msg you get? | 02:34 |
| benje | if you don't have mp3 codec that would not read | 02:35 |

| Bensawsome | ok this is wierd... i cant connect to any irc network through either xchat or irssi.... i have tried 3 different servers and several different ports on each. i made sure none are blocked in my firewalls, and i also see that its giving them the wrong ip :/ the error is "cannot assign requrested address: <IPHERE>" | 02:35 |

| dragonmantank | Anyone here using screen and tinyfugue? | 02:35 |
| rodietze | look I don't know which linux ditro to use, but my doubt is: If I have lets say Ubuntu 3... a very old version, can I keep it updated without installing a new version? and without downloading lots of packages? I dont want to rely on the libraries already in my OS.. can I always compile libraries on my own and use them, so lets say if some program depends on libxml2 I can go there and compile it on my own? | 02:36 |
| Bensawsome | oh and i can ping the networks fine through terminal :/ | 02:36 |
| rodietze | would the SO know I have it installed from now on? | 02:36 |
| NoSoundOnUbuntu | benje, , OK, but IDK if I have a wav............ here is pastebin http://paste.ubuntu.com/163223/ | 02:36 |
| benje | you have'nt enough resourcess Quino insufficient resources for operation | 02:36 |
| _chun | How can I disable/quicken the fade time before the screensaver is activated? | 02:36 |
| eseven73 | dooner, yea it just says no such file or directory | 02:36 |
| coleys | _chun: Settings > Preferences > Screensaver? | 02:36 |
| kronopio | thanks! | 02:36 |
| benje | NoSoundOnUbuntu: you have it this is common to all ubunut distrib ;) | 02:36 |
| Bensawsome | everything else works fine :( and i have an irc server running on it but i didnt think that would matter as long i i used a different port while connecting to other networks :/ | 02:36 |
| mythman | Installed wbar from a deb file how do i run it | 02:37 |
| _chun | coleys: first thing I tried, no option | 02:37 |
| acerna | dragonmantank, I regularly use screen and i've used tiny fuge before | 02:37 |
| Dr_Willis | mythman: open terminal try 'wbar' | 02:37 |
| benje | NoSoundOnUbuntu: do you hear a sound ? | 02:37 |
| NoSoundOnUbuntu | benje, , ok, IDK very much about Ubuntu | 02:37 |
| NoSoundOnUbuntu | nope | 02:37 |
| _chun | when I say fade-time, I mean the screen fading out, not the inactivity time before it's triggered | 02:37 |
| coleys | _chun: Should be there, don't know why it wouldn't = | 02:37 |
| dooner | eseven73 do you have a pastebin of your config? easiest way to debug is to stop the service, then run it from command line as root. sudo proftpd -nd5 and then connect. It will dump lots of debug info, and hopefully show you why it no work | 02:37 |
| dragonmantank | acerna: Any tips on getting PgUp to actually work and to not have the screen refresh and drop all the text when you reconnect? | 02:37 |
| benje | NoSoundOnUbuntu: check control volume and your connection all seem to be ok about driver and read | 02:38 |
| NoSoundOnUbuntu | want me to do it again? | 02:38 |
| coleys | _chun: You mean... monitor turning off? | 02:38 |
| NoSoundOnUbuntu | volumes are all the way up | 02:38 |
| NoSoundOnUbuntu | IDK if there is a mute on the keyboard that doesn't show on the vol controls | 02:38 |
| acerna | dragonmantank, have you tried playing with the term type settings for your screen session? | 02:38 |
| Quino | benje: how do i fix this? | 02:39 |
| acerna | dragonmantank, i'm assuming it works outside of screen fine? | 02:39 |
| benje | NoSoundOnUbuntu: do you use alsa driver ? as devices ? close all firefox and sound program | 02:39 |
| dragonmantank | acerna: No, how do I do that? | 02:39 |

| NoSoundOnUbuntu | ok, only thing open is xchat, benje | 02:40 |
| benje | Quino: you can check in preferences > sound and in mixer applet | 02:40 |
| dragonmantank | acerna: No, it doesn't work outside of screen either (Incidently, I know it works fine on CentOS, so its something with the terminal settings) | 02:40 |
| _chun | coleys: no - when the screensaver is activated, it fades in - try typing gnome-screensaver-command -a and you'll see what I mean. I'd just prefer it to be instant, rather than spending a few seconds fading | 02:40 |
| bonhoffer | what is the default gnome web browser? | 02:40 |
| bonhoffer | (not firefox) | 02:40 |
| acerna | dragonmantank, man screen has more info about it but I think that's the right direction I think you have to set the term type to something specific | 02:41 |
| NoSoundOnUbuntu | benje, ok, only thing open is xchat | 02:41 |
| coleys | _chun: Sorry I can't actually test that. I run xubuntu myself. =/ | 02:41 |
| dragonmantank | acerna: OK, thanks | 02:41 |

| xorred | I need help I just ruined my system.... my hdd setup: 50 G empty, 50 G windows, I setup windows on the 2nd part of the hdd (sda3, then setup ubuntu on first part of hdd (sda5)- ok but seems it created one more partition on sda6 - so I reboot in live cd, delete sda6, resize sda5.. now it errors GRUB 22.... | 02:41 |
| LjL | bonhoffer: epiphany-browser | 02:41 |
| benje | ok NoSoundOnUbuntu check menu preferences sound and mixer applet | 02:41 |
| bonhoffer | LjL, thanks | 02:41 |
| _chun | coleys: ah, okay, fair dos. I'll have a look around in gconf-editor. | 02:41 |
| benje | not more LjL bonhoffer | 02:41 |

| maxwave | 1 | 02:42 |
| coleys | _chun: Good luck, ill see if I can find something. | 02:42 |
| xorred | please help... | 02:42 |
| Quino | benje: what am i too look for? I am pretty new to linux so I don't really know what to do. | 02:42 |
| acerna | dragonmantank, you could try playing with the terminal session on gnome-terminal or whatever you use first | 02:42 |
| zaidka | xorred, you need to re-setup grub | 02:42 |
| bonhoffer | benje, ? | 02:42 |
| xorred | but how do I change the partition numbers in it | 02:42 |
| zaidka | xorred, windows works? | 02:42 |
| xorred | http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=224351&highlight=restore+grub - I found this restore guide | 02:42 |
| xorred | no, ubuntu overwrite boot record and add windows to grub | 02:42 |
| xorred | so now no grub no windows | 02:42 |
| vertagano | xorred, was sda6 the swap partition? | 02:43 |
| kronopio | how do i get updates from al the news sites I care about and blogs in one place | 02:43 |
| xorred | yes | 02:43 |
| kronopio | with thunderbird? | 02:43 |
| xorred | I delete 2nd swap, after the linux one and resized the linux one | 02:43 |
| voodoo_child | kronopio, any rss reader | 02:43 |
| xorred | there was already one swap from before | 02:43 |
| NoSoundOnUbuntu | benje in Volume COntrol......all the preferences are Checked............each Tab In Volume Control has sound maxed and UNmuted | 02:43 |
| xorred | I thought it will recognize it... | 02:43 |
| zaidka | xorred, probably windows still works, try using the boot cd to set windows partition as active, if you want to make sure | 02:43 |
| xorred | but I can't select windows menu | 02:44 |
| xorred | it just errors out grub 22 | 02:44 |
| xorred | I can't even see the boot options | 02:44 |
| zaidka | xorred: yes don't worry about that.. that's probably a grub problem | 02:44 |
| benje | ok NoSoundOnUbuntu and in menu sound ? | 02:44 |
| xorred | yes, I'm logged in via live cd now | 02:44 |
| chrisb62 | is the ext4 filesystem worth it? i accidentally installed 9.04 with ext3 and dont want to reformat for nothing | 02:44 |
| zaidka | xorred: so just follow the tutorial on the link you just pasted | 02:44 |
| dazjorz | chrisb62: it's not that important :) | 02:44 |
| FloridaGuy | where do i go to edit the gl screensaver in gnome | 02:44 |
| xorred | I did but it just shows the same settings - the tutorial is for restoring grub | 02:44 |
| xorred | not writing new values for new partition numbers... | 02:45 |
| usser | chrisb62, you dont have to reformat you can convert ext3 to ext4 | 02:45 |
| NoSoundOnUbuntu | benje, IDK where Menu Sound is | 02:45 |
| dazjorz | chrisb62: makes performance a little bit better etc - though you can use ext4 by changing the mount options in /etc/fstab | 02:45 |
| xorred | so this tutorial basicallyl just restores lost grub, right? | 02:45 |
| chrisb62 | is there a tutorial to do that? | 02:45 |
| dazjorz | chrisb62: all ext versions are forward and backward compatible etc | 02:45 |
| benje | systeme menu > preferences > sound or similar | 02:45 |
| xorred | I need to re-setup, kinda re-scan for the windows partition, find it, add to grub... | 02:45 |
| chrisb62 | that is so awesome | 02:45 |
| zaidka | xorred: try this http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/ubuntu/reinstall-ubuntu-grub-bootloader-after-windows-wipes-it-out/ | 02:45 |
| dazjorz | it is ;) | 02:45 |
| xorred | also add my linux parition and boot option.. | 02:45 |
| xorred | thank you, but that will nto work | 02:46 |
| zaidka | xorred: if that doesn't work.. then try the following: set windows partition as active using System->Administrator->partition editor | 02:46 |
| NoSoundOnUbuntu | Sound Preferences / Devices Tab / Sound Events / Soound Playback = Autodetect | 02:46 |
| xorred | k, here are the new partitions: sda1 - swap, sda2 - extended, inside of it - sda5 - root of linux, then sda3 - windows, sda4 - windows | 02:46 |
| zaidka | xorred: and then once your windows starts wroking again, reinstall ubuntu (deleting the exiting ubuntu parition) | 02:46 |
| chrisb62 | so in fstab i can just change the part that says ext3 to ext4 and thats it or what? | 02:47 |
| zaidka | xorred: wow that won't work | 02:47 |
| NoSoundOnUbuntu | Sound Preferences / Devices Tab / Music and Movies/ Sound Playback = Autodetect | 02:47 |
| xorred | well it worked before | 02:47 |
| zaidka | xorred: you can't boot from an extended parition | 02:47 |
| benje | NoSoundOnUbuntu:default mixer ? | 02:47 |
| xorred | how was I booting before from it? | 02:47 |
| xorred | see, there are linux files inside when I mount it | 02:48 |
| zaidka | xorred: i abolutly have no idea... but maybe windows parition wasn't extended | 02:48 |
| xorred | the linux I just installed | 02:48 |
| dazjorz | chrisb62: yep... then reboot :) | 02:48 |
| eseven73 | dooner, im getting close, now I see my home folders using user userftp but cant create any folders, I really need it to access /var/www/wordpress/* hang on ill post the config to pastebin | 02:48 |
| xorred | no, windows wasnt extended | 02:48 |
| Sublevel_4 | : quesiton from a noob : anyone know what driver i have to install for an ati rage xl video card. | 02:48 |
| chrisb62 | dazjorz: thank you very much! | 02:48 |
| xorred | sda3 and 4 are out of the sda2 extended | 02:48 |
| dazjorz | chrisb62: no problem ;) | 02:48 |
| NoSoundOnUbuntu | Default Mixer Tracks / Device: Intell 82801DB-ICH4 (Alsa mixer) | 02:48 |
| benje | NoSoundOnUbuntu: which is your hardware ? lspci | grep audio . is it a particular config ? notebook or .. ? | 02:48 |
| xorred | sda1(swap), sda2(extended(sda5)), sda3(w), sda4(w) | 02:49 |
| xorred | sda5 = linux | 02:49 |
| zaidka | aha so that's why | 02:49 |
| xorred | can I pastebin my grub.lst | 02:49 |
| eseven73 | dooner, http://paste.ubuntu.com/163228 | 02:49 |
| zaidka | you also need linux partiion to be primary | 02:49 |
| pizzledizzle | trying to load fuse.ko with modprobe and its telling me it's not found even though im in the same dir with fuse.ko | 02:49 |
| NoSoundOnUbuntu | benje, IDK what you are asking me | 02:49 |
| xorred | but it was not primary | 02:49 |
| vertagano | xorred: Any reason why you can't just add sda6 back? | 02:49 |
| CuriosTiger | Hi all. | 02:49 |
| xorred | zaidka: it was not primary | 02:49 |
| burntresistor | i heard of virtual box is it capable of running adobe premiere? | 02:50 |
| CuriosTiger | So...is Ubuntu (or Xfce possibly) incapable of understanding that when I change my resolution inside XFCE, I want that change to persist | 02:50 |
| CuriosTiger | I don't want it reverting back to 800x600 every time I log out | 02:50 |
| xorred | well ... there was sda5 (old linux I deleted it) then there was sda6 (new swap) - I deleted sda5 and sda6, and resized the new it became sda5 | 02:50 |
| NoSoundOnUbuntu | benje, IDK what you are asking me | 02:50 |
| zaidka | i dont know how it was.. you need both windws and linux partition as primary (assuming you have grub on your linux partition) | 02:50 |
| vertagano | CuriosTiger: It should remember your resolution. Mine does. | 02:50 |
| xorred | no it was not primary before? | 02:50 |
| didimus | CrunchBang is just plain excellent | 02:51 |
| xorred | and it worked | 02:51 |
| CuriosTiger | vertagano: Oh, it remembers when I log back in | 02:51 |
| kronopio | criptio | 02:51 |
| kronopio | oops | 02:51 |
| CuriosTiger | but the flash back to 800x600 for the login screen is *quite* annoying | 02:51 |
| zaidka | xorred: then what happend when it stopped working? | 02:51 |
| CuriosTiger | this stuff belongs in 1988, not 2009 | 02:51 |
| kronopio | How do I load rss subscriptions | 02:51 |
| benje | NoSoundOnUbuntu: i want you type commande lspci | grep audio and if it's a particular computer | 02:51 |
| CuriosTiger | (and this is on a fresh install of Xubuntu 9.04 -- under vmware, which admittedly doesn't like 9.04 yet) | 02:51 |
| xorred | well it just grub error 22 | 02:51 |
| benje | CuriosTiger: try to fix resolution in xorg | 02:51 |
| vertagano | CuriosTiger: Hrm. I don't know of a *good* fix for that, but if you removed 800x600 from xorg.conf, it should stop that. | 02:52 |
| benje | the refresh must not be well detected | 02:52 |
| CuriosTiger | xorg.conf has the right resolution | 02:52 |
| xorred | I used gparted | 02:52 |
| xorred | on live ubuntu | 02:52 |
| WIGGMPk | When I try to run firefox nothing happens (besides the wheel spinning) so I tried from the command line and got this error:(firefox:6323): Gtk-WARNING **: Unable to locate theme engine in module_path: "ubuntulooks", Bus error | 02:52 |
| xorred | to delete old linux, then delete old swap | 02:52 |
| xorred | resize new ubuntu to take their place left and right | 02:52 |
| kronopio | how do I subscribe to the UK paper the Gaurdian in thunderbird | 02:52 |
| maxwave3 | burntresistor: virtualization software is usually not great with memory or cpu intensive software | 02:52 |

| CuriosTiger | actually, I take that back | 02:53 |
| vertagano | burntresister: Virtual machines are best on processors that support hardware virtualization. | 02:53 |
| benje | NoSoundOnUbuntu: by using "dmesg" command | 02:53 |
| CuriosTiger | xorg.conf contains very little | 02:53 |
| CuriosTiger | What actually displays the Xubuntu login screen? | 02:53 |
| CuriosTiger | is that gdm still? | 02:53 |
| didimus | xorg.cong i believe is now largely bypassed | 02:53 |
| kronopio | mmm | 02:54 |
| NoSoundOnUbuntu | benje, , I know very little about Ubuntu | 02:54 |
| sebsebseb | CuriosTiger: virtualmachine Xubuntu? what why? | 02:54 |
| benje | NoSoundOnUbuntu: paste what dmesg tell you ;) | 02:54 |
| sebsebseb | CuriosTiger: why not put on a hard disk for real :) | 02:54 |
| vertagano | CuriosTiger: xorg.conf will be respected if you fill it in, but a mostly blank file makes the settings be detected automagically. | 02:54 |
| benje | NoSoundOnUbuntu: you can try alsamixer too to check volume control | 02:54 |
| CuriosTiger | sebsebseb: Because I run Mac OS X on this computer "for real" | 02:54 |

| sebsebseb | CuriosTiger: oh ok that explains it, but dual booting Ubuntu is also possible | 02:55 |
| benje | NoSoundOnUbuntu: do your computer is a standard pc or exotic config like netbook ? | 02:55 |
| CuriosTiger | sebsebseb: Why would I want to dualboot? That means having to shut down all Mac OS X apps every time I want to run a Linux one | 02:55 |
| sebsebseb | CuriosTiger: and Xubuntu uses GDM | 02:55 |
| sebsebseb | CuriosTiger: ok fair enough | 02:55 |
| CuriosTiger | with virtualization, I have Ubuntu in a separate Spaces space -- I can switch to it with the click of a button | 02:55 |

| didimus | i would HIGHLY recommend VirtualBox | 02:56 |
| CuriosTiger | dualbooting, too, does not belong in 2009. It belongs around 1995. :) | 02:56 |
| NoSoundOnUbuntu | benje, it is a Gateway Laptop | 02:56 |
| CuriosTiger | sebseb: And there's VMware Fusion, which works great. | 02:56 |
| didimus | i use it A LOT and am blown away by it's performance\ | 02:56 |
| CuriosTiger | Parallels and VirtualBox do not have updated Xorg drivers for Ubuntu 9.04 either | 02:56 |
| NoSoundOnUbuntu | benje, it is a Gateway Laptop #4520 | 02:56 |
| jdu | qemu works fine | 02:56 |
| vertagano | CuriosTiger: I'm with you. I had a virtual Xubuntu box on my Windows machine for years. | 02:56 |

| didimus | my friends has that and loves it on his Mac | 02:57 |
| CuriosTiger | sebsebseb: I know. I don't like Gnome, and I don't like KDE. XFCE is nice and lightweight, and much more responsive -- especially under a VM | 02:57 |

| CuriosTiger | sebsebseb: Read my followup statement | 02:58 |
| sebsebseb | CuriosTiger: and ReactOS is very eaearly alpha, and they hardly have any developers | 02:58 |

| Technique | Hi im just wondering if anyone might be of help, im running ubuntu and windows xp sharing the same hard drive, is it possible to re-assign more hard drive space for ubuntu??????????? | 03:01 |
| CuriosTiger | sebsebseb: Until the Wine developers get access to Windows source code, they'll have no shot at becoming 100% compatible. Microsoft has far too much stuff that's undocumented. And as long as that remains fact, Wine will continue to suck for compatibility, and will continue to have to develop workarounds and rewrite code for individual applications. This is not the developer's fault; they've done a great job -- but Wine is not the same as Mi | 03:01 |
| didimus | sure... resize the drive with gParted | 03:01 |
| CuriosTiger | And with that, I'm done | 03:01 |

| mkasson_ | can anyone recommend a replacement for itunes. been checking out banshee, not sure how much I like it | 03:29 |
| vertagano | PerryArmstrong: You might need to find a better video driver. | 03:29 |
| twodogs_ | anyone using UNR? | 03:29 |
| dumdumz | PerryArmstrong, find the right video drive3r | 03:29 |
| sebsebseb | mkasson_: gtkpod | 03:29 |
| coleys | mkasson_: Exaile, or amarok\ | 03:29 |
| jdu | mkasson, perhaps amarok | 03:29 |
| benje | Stanlin: you have to do the well procedure for lvm | 03:29 |

| twodogs_ | is banshee the best? | 03:29 |

| PerryArmstrong | vertagano, dumdumz; my display settings have recognized my monitor...can you help | 03:30 |
| bebooo | it's giving me (insuficient resources for operation) which makes me think the video card isn't powerful enough, but i was running mythbuntu on this same box and the video played fine and windows on this box and it played fine. The video is also working, slowly and choppily, in mozilla. | 03:30 |
| twodogs_ | thanks for advice | 03:31 |
| sebsebseb | twodogs_: mplayer is good to have installed as well | 03:31 |
| bebooo | that's when I run mplayer or totem | 03:31 |
| jdu | SubCoolBox, since you are that far back, it is probably unsafe to update by putting jaunty sources or something. | 03:31 |
| Ademan | mmm mplayer | 03:31 |
| NoSoundOnUbuntu | terminal command? "load module pcspkr" | 03:31 |
| sebsebseb | twodogs_: vlc is popular, but I heard it's better on Windows | 03:31 |
| mkasson_ | sebsebseb, it doesn't seem to mark stuff as compilations as well, it appears | 03:31 |
| vertagano | PerryArmstrong: Do you know what sort of video card you have? Nvidia, ATI, IBM, Intel? | 03:31 |
| sebsebseb | mkasson_: uh? | 03:31 |
| mkasson_ | wow, thanks folks, plenty of response there | 03:31 |
| coleys | mplayer just rox. =p | 03:31 |
| twodogs_ | i have been using vlc to play movies and vids | 03:31 |
| benje | NoSoundOnUbuntu: sudo modprobe pcspkr | 03:31 |
| PerryArmstrong | vertagano; intel | 03:31 |
| SubCoolBox | jdu: im looking to updgrade- not really update | 03:31 |
| WNz | jdu: that worked | 03:31 |
| ralmar | Hey guys for some reason when I logged in the network manager did not load up. How can i run it? Thanks | 03:31 |
| WNz | thanks | 03:31 |
| mzz | vlc and mplayer both play lots of stuff, but they're not so great for managing a large media collection imho | 03:32 |
| Ademan | ralmar: nm-applet | 03:32 |
| coleys | Anyone use MPD? :D | 03:32 |
| SubCoolBox | there is a lot of chattter, and this is a 1ghz cel. with 350mb ram.. please title me on all cmoments.. | 03:32 |
| jdu | WNz, :) | 03:32 |
| mkasson_ | sebsebseb, eg I will find a bunch of songs that I have that are not marked as comp. Not sure how to mark as comp other than by specifying a comp artist | 03:32 |
| jdu | SubCoolBox, upgrade to what? | 03:32 |
| vertagano | PerryArmstrong: Hrm. I don't know anything about the Intel drivers. Sorry. | 03:32 |
| sebsebseb | mkasson_: comp? what's comp? and I don't have an Ipod :) | 03:32 |
| ripps | coleys: I'm the maintainer of the gmpc-trunk team, I update git versions of mpd and gmpc | 03:33 |
| ralmar | Ademan, thanks, this is the output i get : ** (nm-applet:20619): WARNING **: <WARN> applet_dbus_manager_start_service(): Could not acquire the NetworkManagerUserSettings service as it is already taken. Return: 3 | 03:33 |
| Ademan | ralmar: however running it like that, if you close the terminal, it will close the nm-applet, if you want to just run it and close the terminal, you want nm-applet & disown if you do that you can close the terminal whenever you want and the applet will still be there | 03:33 |
| twodogs_ | i have unr on netbook now and windows dont fully 'maximize.' it's like there is an invisible panel at the bottom and the windows won't cover it (go full screen) know how to fix? | 03:33 |
| NoSoundOnUbuntu | benje, was that supposed to make a sound? | 03:33 |
| benje | NoSoundOnUbuntu: always no sound with headphones ? | 03:33 |
| mkasson_ | sebsebseb, sorry, compilation. | 03:33 |
| vertagano | NoSoundOnUbuntu: Did you say you were trying to use JACK audio? | 03:33 |
| sebsebseb | mkasson_: Apple seem to lock people in more than Microsoft really | 03:33 |
| Ademan | ralmar: it sounds like nm-applet is already running... somehow... | 03:33 |
| SubCoolBox | Ok- i just remoted into this box for simplicity | 03:33 |
| benje | NoSoundOnUbuntu: no to add pcseapkers module | 03:33 |
| Ademan | anyone know if there's a backend daemon to nm-applet? | 03:33 |
| dumdumz | PerryArmstrong, this may help https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedDrivers | 03:33 |
| coleys | ripps: Nice to see you ubuntu channel =p mpd is good for business =) | 03:33 |
| NoSoundOnUbuntu | benje, the laptop had sound on XP | 03:33 |
| forensicwannabe | Is there a partitioning channel? | 03:33 |
| mkasson_ | sebsebseb, agreed they try, but I feel there are other solutions, eg banshee etc | 03:33 |
| jdu | Ademan, NetworkManager | 03:33 |
| ralmar | Ademan, yeah maybe I just cant see it, im going to log out and relog in | 03:33 |
| sebsebseb | mkasson_: yeah, and a lot of Mac OS X users, won't change to Linux from it | 03:34 |
| Ademan | jdu: thanks, unfortunately ralmar already took it into his own hands :-p | 03:34 |
| coleys | is conky config Javascript or... what language =o? | 03:34 |
| NoSoundOnUbuntu | benje, I am nt sure about the JACK because I always used interal speakers | 03:34 |
| jiffe88 | anyone know a good high speed usb video camera that will work with v4l2? | 03:34 |
| tdizzy | how might I set up Rhythmbox to use a Windows Media Center Remote? | 03:34 |
| sebsebseb | tdizzy: you can't | 03:34 |
| robogu | Ok I have a problem, Ubuntu was working fine then all of a sudden, when my computer boots to a black screen after the POST that says "NTLDR missing, Press CTRL, ALT, DEL to restart" I then booted to a live CD and went to terminal and did, " sudo grub, find /boot/grub/stage1, root (hd0,4), setup (hd0), to reinstall grub, It said it was successful, but I still get the same error, any help? | 03:34 |
| mkasson_ | sebsebseb, that's their choice | 03:34 |
| Ademan | coleys: i'm pretty sure conky is just, conky, its their own madeup scripting language (i mean it's really just simple text substitution) | 03:35 |
| dumdumz | coleys, its proprietary | 03:35 |
| NoSoundOnUbuntu | benje, do I need to UN-add the pc speakers now? | 03:35 |
| sebsebseb | mkasson_: yeah | 03:35 |
| tdizzy | sebsebseb, doesn't LIRC do that? | 03:35 |
| sebsebseb | tdizzy: there's also a good media centre alternative for Linux, not sure what it's called | 03:35 |
| vertagano | robogu: That's a Windows error... It sounds like a Windows partition is trying to boot. | 03:35 |
| jiffe88 | 30fps would be fine, I'm looking for high shutter speed though to reduce blur | 03:35 |
| benje | NoSoundOnUbuntu: if it's don't work you can sudo rmmod pcspkr | 03:35 |
| coleys | Ademan: haha, yeah I keep hearing it's simple, but when I see it I think otherwise =p I guess I just have to look at it closer. | 03:35 |
| WIGGMPk | Is it possible to channel the sound to bluetooth headphones? | 03:35 |
| twodogs_ | try elisa | 03:35 |
| tdizzy | sebsebseb, can I use an MCE remote with it? | 03:36 |
| krabit | robogu: that's because your booting to ntldr is installed (or was) make sure you boot to the right partition | 03:36 |
| subcool_ | Ok, getting better there. | 03:36 |
| subcool_ | very laggy- hmm | 03:36 |
| Ademan | coleys: yeah conkyrc s are ugly as hell, but the premise behind them is super simple | 03:36 |
| mkasson_ | tdizzy, sebsebseb there's myth, there's ampache | 03:36 |
| sebsebseb | tdizzy: think it will be on one of these sites though http://www.osalt.com and http://www.linuxeq.com and then some where in Ubuntu's repo download servers. maybe you can use the remote with it, I don't know since not used the app | 03:36 |
| benje | seem to be possible WIGGMPk blutooth servce have sound services | 03:36 |
| NoSoundOnUbuntu | how do I know if it worked, was it supposed to amke a sound via the headphones? | 03:36 |
| krabit | robogu: use sudo cfdisk and set it to book from where you have grub installed | 03:36 |
| krabit | **boot | 03:36 |
| shadow98 | i just built a webserver and have everything working good....i now want to replicate that same box to another machine...so any config changes I make get replicated... | 03:36 |
| benje | NoSoundOnUbuntu: to read sound it's command aplay -l | 03:36 |
| krabit | shadow98: image the driver | 03:36 |
| coleys | I guess, ill try and find a ... complete documentation on the site, figure out how to do it. I really like the customization of conky, and the fact it's on the desktop. | 03:36 |
| shadow98 | im going to be using them for load balancing and then failover if one goes down | 03:37 |
| WIGGMPk | benje: any clue how this would be accomplished? there is no real option in the sound manager | 03:37 |
| robogu | Krabit: how can i make sure i boot to the right partition? | 03:37 |
| robogu | ok | 03:37 |
| benje | try to uncheck external amplifier option and jacksens | 03:37 |
| benje | NoSoundOnUbuntu: | 03:37 |
| Royall | How do you get to the sort of 'registry' ubuntu has, were you can change config values for applications? | 03:37 |
| outofthemadness | does anyone know where I might be able to get some help with bitpim? | 03:37 |
| Ademan | shadow98: well you could have the other machine mount your first machine's /etc if you wanted | 03:37 |
| shadow98 | krabit: so what is the best way to get this setup...is there software i need to isntall | 03:37 |
| sebsebseb | Royall: gconf? | 03:37 |
| krabit | robogu: i just told you, use sudo cfdisk and set which one to boot too | 03:37 |
| coleys | ewww. im going to compile conky... =( | 03:37 |
| krabit | shadow98: you need software that can image a drive | 03:37 |
| NoSoundOnUbuntu | benje, aplay -l made no sound | 03:38 |
| vertagano | Royall: Many programs store their settings in various files. There's not as much of a "one place" for settings as there is in Windows. | 03:38 |
| Ademan | Royall: note that gconf is only for Gnome applications, and is way better than the windows registry :-p | 03:38 |
| benje | WIGGMPk: no i don't know how maybe in config of bluetooth and after detection device may appear (maybe) i never use it | 03:38 |
| shadow98 | krabit: what is good for ubuntu anything free | 03:38 |
| coleys | lawl at windows registry. | 03:38 |
| Royall | Ademan: I typed gconf in terminal, command not found | 03:38 |
| vertagano | NoSoundOnUbuntu: I assume you've tried to play sounds with other things, like mplayer or vlc? | 03:38 |
| benje | NoSoundOnUbuntu: soory aplay /usr/share/souns/question.wav | 03:38 |
| Ademan | Royall: gconf-editor is the way to edit gconf | 03:38 |
| Royall | thanks | 03:38 |
| Ademan | Royall: well, there are command-line-only ways, but I don't think you want that :-p | 03:38 |
| benje | NoSoundOnUbuntu: aplay /usr/share/sounds/question.wav | 03:39 |
| krabit | shadow98: I'm not an IT technician so I don't image drives, ask around or google. I'm sure there are good free options available | 03:39 |
| NoSoundOnUbuntu | vertagano, IDK what those are | 03:39 |
| Roasted | If I run sudo rm -rf /* it'll delete everything on my system even when I'm logged in - right? If so, how is it people can sya "its the same as doing format c: in windows" when in windows you cant do that while logged in? | 03:39 |
| krabit | Roasted: it's not the same | 03:39 |
| mercutio22 | Kernel panic here help | 03:39 |
| coleys | !danger | Roasted | 03:39 |
| ubottu | Roasted: DO NOT RUN THAT COMMAND That particular command is DANGEROUS and shouldn't be uttered here. REST OF YOU: DANGER, WILL ROBINSON, DANGER! Do not use the command or utter it here thank you! | 03:39 |
| krabit | Roasted: although it will delete everything that the system hasn't locked | 03:39 |
| mercutio22 | what else can I say, I dont have aclue whta triggering it | 03:39 |
| benje | Roasted: because the result is the same you loose all your data | 03:40 |
| vertagano | NoSoundOnUbuntu: mplayer and vlc are video/media players. | 03:40 |
| krabit | yeah the result is the same, but that doesn't make the process the same, technically | 03:40 |
| krabit | of course that won't matter much at the end of the day | 03:40 |
| shadow98 | Ademan, what can i use to mirror the 2 boxes...so I set one up as primary and any changes I make get replicated to second box | 03:40 |
| subcool_ | crap.. just lost my mouse- nice.. | 03:40 |
| krabit | shadow98: you can use raid for that | 03:40 |
| Ademan | also that's been disabled for a long time anyways, you can't remove root | 03:40 |
| mzz | Roasted: also, removal of open files works differently (that is: works) in linux than it does in windows | 03:41 |
| subcool_ | stupid lil nub thingy | 03:41 |
| NoSoundOnUbuntu | vertagano, when I tried to play a mp3.............movie player opened up with silence | 03:41 |
| Ademan | shadow98: if you mount the first box's /etc you WILL have that effect, the only thing might be you'd need to restart apache for the changes to take effect on the second machine | 03:41 |
| mzz | Ademan: notice the "*" in that command... I don't think that hits the check you're thinking of | 03:41 |
| Ademan | mzz: ah, very true | 03:41 |
| Roasted | krabit - Right. I understand that when I run that command my stuff is gone. But I was trying to mimic the exact same thing on a spare XP machine I have here that I'm ready to format and reinstall. But I was just trying out the command in XP command prompt to try and mimic the same effects of rm rf in Ubuntu and I cant get it to work. So I didnt see how it was the same as other users were asying | 03:41 |
| MyWay | Can somebody help me with this please? http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=7201767#post7201767 | 03:41 |
| benje | vertagano: sound device is detected module is charged but no sound | 03:41 |
| NoSoundOnUbuntu | benje, is there a way to install the drivers for my Logitech USB headset | 03:42 |
| Ademan | mzz: my brain just autocompleted that command to the 'classic' version | 03:42 |
| krabit | Roasted: theoretically the end result is the same, although I guess windows doesn't allow it | 03:42 |
| krabit | anymore | 03:42 |
| shadow98 | Ademan, so I would load up this second box...and then how would i mount the remote machine | 03:43 |
| mzz | Ademan: obvious fix: don't run either, they don't normally make any sense anyway :) | 03:43 |
| benje | NoSoundOnUbuntu: maybe try to search with id of headset ( command lsusb ) | 03:43 |
| Roasted | krabit - I'm just trying to understand Ubuntu security here. Couldnt I get a simple batch script that'll run rm rf on my Ubuntu machine on accident and BAM all the sudden my stu ff is gone? It just doesnt make sense how people say Ubuntu is more secure when Windows doesnt allow this. | 03:43 |
| krabit | Ademan: couldn't shadow98 just use some sort of software raid setup? | 03:43 |
| Ademan | shadow98: look into nfs | 03:43 |
| mzz | krabit: well, "format" isn't the same as "rm". I don't know if things like mke2fs check for the partition you run them on being mounted... | 03:43 |
| drhodes | remote filesystems can be mounted with sshfs | 03:43 |
| mzz | krabit: (and I don't want to try to find out either :) | 03:43 |
| Ademan | krabit: maybe? I thought raid was really only for local setups | 03:43 |
| krabit | Roasted: no that wouldnt work unless the script had admin/root powers | 03:43 |
| vertagano | Roasted: You can only delete files that you have permission to delete. | 03:44 |
| benje | drhodes: i have question about it ubuntu mount without it how ? | 03:44 |
| vertagano | Roasted: Which means using 'sudo' and re-entering your password. | 03:44 |
| benje | when you do oplaces connect to server | 03:44 |
| NoSoundOnUbuntu | benje, ok, I will rty that later | 03:44 |
| krabit | krabit: even on windows you can nuke the hardrive in the same way, only you'd have to use the windows dquivalent rm command | 03:44 |
| steven_ | How do I install KDE in Ubuntu? There is a program that needs it | 03:44 |
| genii | Roasted: You'd also have to somehow install this malicious removal package or run the script, or so on | 03:44 |
| krabit | Roasted: even on windows you can nuke the hardrive in the same way, only you'd have to use the windows dquivalent rm command | 03:44 |
| NoSoundOnUbuntu | benje, can you tell me what I need to do to UL pics from my cam to the laptop | 03:44 |
| benje | NoSoundOnUbuntu: you can try to plug it and see in dmesg the message | 03:44 |
| tombom62 | ive done that on window several times | 03:44 |
| Roasted | krabit - Oh, so if I run rm c: on XP itll nuke the drive? | 03:44 |
| Ademan | steven_: what program? you probably don't need *all* of kde (which you can get with sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop) | 03:44 |
| shadow98 | krabit, that would be good for one machine...but i want to have 2 machines and load balance traffic | 03:44 |
| steven_ | Program is called Kmuddy | 03:45 |
| vertagano | Roasted: In Windows it's deltree C: | 03:45 |

| shadow98 | my next step once that is working is to get it replicated to a friends house in another state... | 03:46 |

| Roasted | krabit - no dice | 03:49 |
| krabit | Roasted: I dont understand windows shell command, there is a way to do it though | 03:49 |
| benje | NoSoundOnUbuntu: oki it's not the good way | 03:49 |
| Roasted | krabit - it doesnt give me an error that it didnt run, but when I run dir everything is still there | 03:49 |
| NoSoundOnUbuntu | I know | 03:49 |

| steven_ | configure: error: The important program kde-config was not found! Please check whether you installed KDE correctly. That was the message | 03:50 |
| tombom62 | roasted: you could just format the drive right? | 03:50 |
| benje | NoSoundOnUbuntu: like that we don't know what other do and when we help we have precedure if something change between it could be hard to know what was do | 03:50 |
| krabit | krabit: well, you just need to use the del command and make it recursive, I dont know how windows does that, maybe it doesn't because windows isn't big on command line. Who knows? | 03:50 |
| kronopio | songbird works with ipods? | 03:50 |
| Roasted | tomtom62 - Oh yeah, I could. I'm redoing it regardless. But I just got the idea to try and run a command to nuke the drive in XP... mostly because I read about an executable script that existed in previous versions of Ubuntu that erased all data on the computer. I was just trying to find an eqvuialent of XP | 03:50 |
| tombom62 | kronopio: yes | 03:50 |
| tombom62 | i use it a lot | 03:50 |
| krabit | steven_: it's far easier just install kubuntu | 03:50 |
| NoSoundOnUbuntu | benje, I understand but it is hard to make them stay and help me, lol | 03:51 |
| steven_ | Alright, I will do that | 03:51 |
| steven_ | How big is it? | 03:51 |
| tombom62 | roasted: ok | 03:51 |

| kronopio | cool, whats a good way to acess music without getting viruses | 03:51 |
| tombom62 | but i dont know it | 03:51 |
| coleys | kronopio: Frostwire! | 03:51 |
| kronopio | k | 03:51 |
| krabit | Roasted: link to the info about that script please, I think it was a little lie, no way would it work without you actually running it as root | 03:51 |
| benje | NoSoundOnUbuntu: but i think it's a config specific problem you may foudn solution in related computer help | 03:51 |
| Roasted | http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1120670 | 03:51 |

| robogu | Krabit: what do i do once i get into cfdisk, I see the NTFS partition (boot) and the linux partition (non boot) what now | 03:52 |
| NoSoundOnUbuntu | benje, there is a Fn End keystroke that is UnMute but Ubuntu sees it as End | 03:52 |
| krabit | Roasted: yeah that couldnt really work in 99% of cases | 03:52 |
| Roasted | krabit - the program waits until you run something like synaptic that requires your root PW. Afterwards since theres a 15 minute window of your system remmbering your root PW it can launch with root access since you gave the access to synaptic. | 03:52 |
| steven_ | 732 MB. Not bad | 03:52 |

| tombom62 | i almost forgot about my problem. in firefox 3, it always starts in offline mode even if im connectind to internet | 03:54 |
| krabit | robogu: i cant remember how it works, just rtm, follow the instructions, use your common sense, you need to set the grub part as boot | 03:54 |

| KyleK | close firefox properly, and then start it | 03:55 |
| KyleK | I've had tons of problems with firefox not saving settings between crashes :D | 03:55 |
| NoSoundOnUbuntu | benje, ok, I will look, ty again | 03:55 |
| krabit | robogu: you didnt set it to boot | 03:55 |
| Roasted | krabit - how is running synaptic "fail." Synaptic is how you install programs. Any Ubuntu user, basic or advanced, would use Synaptic. Now tell me how Synaptic as root is a bad thing, when the script runs after root access is granted to synaptic. | 03:56 |
| tombom62 | ok thx | 03:56 |

| vertagano | coleys: kill -9 pid | 03:57 |
| TopBunny88 | coleys: kill pid# | 03:57 |
| NetEcho | -9 works too | 03:58 |
| coleys | -9 does what? | 03:58 |
| coleys | Or means what.. =p | 03:58 |
| robogu | krabit, I set NTFS (non boot) and then set linux (boot) then i wrote the partition table restarted, with the same error | 03:58 |
| vertagano | coleys: Specifies the kill signal. | 03:58 |
| krabit | Roasted: ultimatly, the user ran an untrusted email attachement, that could screwn any operating system | 03:58 |
| krabit | no exception | 03:58 |
| TopBunny88 | coleys: man kill | 03:58 |
| KyleK | coleys: without -9 kill asks the pricess to die, with the -9 it tells the process to die | 03:58 |
| ripps | # determines the level of kill, -9 is the most unforgiving | 03:58 |
| NetEcho | or if its say a program being stupid with multiple pids then you can do sudo killall processname | 03:58 |
| coleys | vertagano: Oh, okay | 03:58 |
| TopBunny88 | !kill | coleys | 03:58 |

| benje | NoSoundOnUbuntu: try to force oss alsa or pulse audio driver too if none work retrunr to autoselect in menu system preferences sound | 03:59 |
| krabit | Roasted: the only reason this doesn't happen much is because Ubuntu is low in terms of market share, but, this attack would work in Linux, OSX, Windows, UNIX, AIX whatever.. nothing is safe against this type of attack | 03:59 |
| coleys | Is that a seriousss question kronopio | 03:59 |
| kronopio | yea.. I guess I should think about how to ask it better | 03:59 |
| TopBunny88 | coleys: Ctrl+ALT+F1-5 | 03:59 |
| Stanlin | Why Ubuntu is slower than other Distros? Any way to improve the speed? | 04:00 |
| Roasted | krabit - oh ri ght, I understand completely. My point in my question was the script probably was something similar to rm rf, whcih you can run in ubuntu while logged in - whereas the equivalent in XP - format c: cant be ran while logged into XP. That was my point of my question. | 04:00 |
| ripps | kronopio: linux requires very little maintence to keep running well, just don't startup alot of programs and use up all your ram | 04:00 |
| KyleK | kronopio: if you're on linux just watch out for sites that use flash that cause 100% cpu usage, course that happens on windows too | 04:00 |
| robogu | krabit: did you get the last message? | 04:00 |
| kronopio | thanks | 04:00 |
| caeroe | taking another stab at flash video... i've tried everything, and Hulu is still horrible in fullscreen. i tried different drivers, different versions of flash, disabling desktop effects, different browsers, etc | 04:00 |
| caeroe | fullscreen flash video is horrible | 04:01 |
| mzz | Roasted: well, if you're not root and can't get root without entering a password it can't rm -rf the entire system, just your homedir. Similarly in xp it can't kill the entire system if you're not running as admin | 04:01 |
| KyleK | what kind of horrible? | 04:01 |
| TopBunny88 | !flash | caeroe | 04:01 |
| ubottu | caeroe: To install Flash see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/Flash (a recent version for !Dapper is available in !backports) - See also !Restricted and !Gnash | 04:01 |
| KyleK | looks like poop or doesn't work | 04:01 |
| krabit | Roasted: the equivalent isn't format C the equivalent is a recursive del command, but I dont know how to do that as it's windows specific | 04:01 |
| caeroe | ugh, that's just insulting | 04:01 |
| kronopio | what kind of sites se flash, oe with videos | 04:01 |
| kronopio | like youtube? | 04:01 |
| KyleK | Roasted: add init=/bin/bash to the end of the boot command | 04:01 |
| robogu | Ok I have a problem, Ubuntu was working fine then all of a sudden, when my computer boots to a black screen after the POST that says "NTLDR missing, Press CTRL, ALT, DEL to restart" I then booted to a live CD and went to terminal and did, " sudo grub, find /boot/grub/stage1, root (hd0,4), setup (hd0), to reinstall grub, It said it was successful, but I still get the same error, any help? | 04:02 |
| caeroe | nevermind, i obviously know how to install flash. guess i'll try some other time and ask later | 04:02 |
| krabit | Roasted: or, the file could even use the win32 api to delete everything, this can happen in many different ways | 04:02 |
| KyleK | full disclosure: i didn't see what you asked, just the responses ;) | 04:02 |
| coleys | Why doesn't kill require root acess, I guess it's probably automaticaly a root command =o | 04:02 |
| kronopio | I love ubuntu by the way.... it's pretty amazing | 04:02 |
| NoSoundOnUbuntu | benje, does this make any sense? "I have solved this problem on other linux systems by turning off the external amplfier in kmix, however, puppy has no such options, does anyone know a solution to get sound working in puppy" | 04:02 |
| krabit | coleys: dont think it is, kill should require root to delete anything your user doesnt own | 04:02 |
| krabit | **kill anything | 04:02 |
| KyleK | robogu: run fdisk -l and see what partition is marked bootable? | 04:03 |

| Roasted | krabit - so ultimately would ubuntu be safer in the respect of 3rd party malware applications, considering ubuntu requires root access to run? Even if they were like that one I linked earlier that just waited till synaptic launched... even still that buys the user some time for scnas I guess. | 04:03 |

| vertagano | NoSoundOnUbuntu: You could try installing kmix -- it's available in synaptic -- and see if you can find that option. | 04:04 |
| krabit | Roasted: well, for a start the amount of malware for Ubuntu is tiny (almost none in the wild) compared to linux, also, yes. For an architecture point of view it is harder to do damage without the users consent | 04:04 |
| bebooo | do I have to reinstall ubuntu completely to get mplayer to work? | 04:04 |
| ripps | bebooo: doubtful | 04:05 |
| ripps | bebooo: what's wrong with mplayer? | 04:05 |
| bebooo | it just crashes on me | 04:05 |
| ripps | bebooo: run mplayer in a terminal and tell us what it says when it crashes | 04:06 |
| mzz | Roasted: of course something running as you can still do tons of damage (eat important documents you saved, mail itself to everyone in your address book, start running every time you log in and re-send to everyone in your address book at intervals, and so on) | 04:06 |
| bebooo | it's giving me (insuficient resources for operation) which makes me think the video card isn't powerful enough, but i was running mythbuntu on this same box and the video played fine and windows on this box and it played fine. The video is also working, slowly and choppily, in mozilla. | 04:06 |
| mzz | Roasted: it just can't touch files not owned by you | 04:06 |
| vertagano | bebooo: Any chance you recently added a new PCI card? | 04:06 |
| bebooo | how recently? | 04:07 |
| bebooo | not after I installed the os | 04:07 |
| bebooo | which was yesterday | 04:07 |
| krabit | Roasted: also, that way of epxloting gnome/ubuntu has been patched, gnome no longer executes .desktop files by default | 04:07 |
| krabit | *exploiting | 04:07 |
| vertagano | bebooo: I don't know, but my Mythbuntu box has too many PCI cards for the default vmalloc settings, so whenever I upgrade, I have to set the vmalloc amount or some of my cards fail to register with their drivers (like my video card isn't recognized by the NVidia drivers) | 04:08 |
| robogu | KyleK: When i looked first NTFS was set to boot, but then i switched it to linux to boot, there is also a linux swap / solaris, should i use that to boot? | 04:08 |
| PerryArmstrong | how can i get right resolution for my screen. i have a very bad resolution and i dont get resolutions higher than 832x624...can anyone tell me how do i get higher resolutions | 04:08 |
| bebooo | well, i'm not running mythbuntu anymore | 04:08 |
| bebooo | i'm running ubuntu 9.04 | 04:08 |
| bebooo | I think installing packages might have thrown it off or something. | 04:08 |
| NoSoundOnUbuntu | benje, ok, I will try | 04:08 |
| bebooo | but then again, like I said, it actually plays, albeit slowly, in mozilla | 04:09 |
| kronopio | how do I find actual music on frostwire | 04:09 |
| vertagano | bebooo: My point being that you might see if your /var/log/dmesg mentions running out of vmalloc | 04:09 |

VMWare Tools is installed, so that's not the problem. I did notice there's no /dev/dsp | 04:14 |

| bebooo | any video | 04:41 |
| kronopio | my youtube won't play anyone know why? | 04:41 |
| bebooo | youtube/hulu | 04:41 |
| vertagano | IndyGunFreak: Wasn't meaning to imply that they have *more* problems. Just *different* problems. | 04:41 |
| chetnick | i installed 9.04 on the same box where i was running 8.04. I have no sound on skype anymore. Does anybody have ideas? I tried all devices listed in skype. | 04:41 |
| kronopio | hulu is better? | 04:41 |
| benje | PerryArmstrong: what is your graphics card ? | 04:41 |
| krabit | azharcs: .mozilla folder in /home/$username | 04:41 |
| bebooo | but when i open a video file, it crashes movie player or mplayer | 04:41 |
| NTFS | chetnick your using linux thats why | 04:41 |
| PerryArmstrong | benje I dont have a graphic card | 04:41 |
| nophilter | Perry what resolution now you have? | 04:42 |
| kcollins | adalgiso, from what I can read in my research online, the LiveCD is not supposed to ask for a username/password, as it is supposed to auto-logon | 04:42 |
| nophilter | Perry and which one you want? | 04:42 |
| benje | PerryArmstrong: so how do you use your screen ? :) | 04:42 |
| vertagano | chetnick: Sounds is only missing in skype? | 04:42 |
| meeee | i get an Eula that I cannot agree to because terminal wont accept my input for the "OK". I'm installing something called fish. my paste looks like this ----> http://paste.ubuntu.com/163252/ | 04:42 |
| adalgiso | kcollins: yeah, thats what i've experience with all the previous releases, so I'm pretty much stumped | 04:42 |
| NTFS | LINUX SUCKS | 04:42 |
| kcollins | adalgiso, might be worth trying the full release? | 04:42 |
| benje | PerryArmstrong: paste lspci | grep VGA | 04:42 |
| chetnick | vertagano: yes only in skype.... | 04:42 |
| adalgiso | kcollins: haven't been able to find anything through google | 04:42 |
| NTFS | windows vista runs faster | 04:42 |
| PerryArmstrong | nophilter; 1024x768 | 04:42 |
| azharcs | krabit: So all i have to do is, copy the backed up folder of 8.04 in 9.04 and it will work fine :) | 04:42 |
| JCM | Anyone install the ATI drivers in 64 bit Ubuntu? I'm just need to know if I need to still the 32 bit drivers ass well for Wine | 04:42 |
| PerryArmstrong | benje; i suppose i dont know the answer | 04:42 |
| PerryArmstrong | benje; i'll give 1 sec | 04:43 |
| adalgiso | kcollins: yeah, i should, but my internet connection at this apartment is garbage and I'd need to wait about 4 hours for it to download | 04:43 |
| Subrosian | NTFS, you need a girlfriend | 04:43 |
| NTFS | LINUX SUCKS | 04:43 |
| Subrosian | and to get laid... | 04:43 |
| adalgiso | kcollins: figured I'd install the beta and just upgrade afterwards, because its the only release i have a copy of at the moment | 04:43 |
| PerryArmstrong | benje; 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation 82945G/GZ Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 02) | 04:43 |
| krabit | adalgiso: the issue you have is something to do with the boot process, i had it a while ago | 04:43 |
| PerryArmstrong | benje; so whats the answer from this output?? | 04:43 |
| NTFS | UBUNTU OPS ARE THE LAZIEST OPS EVER | 04:43 |
| IndyGunFreak | meeee: it installed for me no problem at all. | 04:43 |

| NTFS | I AINT A VIRGI | 04:44 |

| NTFS | BAN ME tim_sharitt | 04:44 |
| kronopio | i cant get hulu too play, but I am not being prompted for plugins | 04:44 |
| adalgiso | krabit: while booting up, there does come a point where i get some I/O error and an error with SquashFS, but is that a problem with the image that I burnt to CD or does that indicate a hardware problem with memory/hard drive? | 04:44 |
| nophilter | Perry, well unless you installed some other driver from Intel you can go system/preferences/dysplay and change resolution | 04:44 |
| chetnick | vertagano: only in skype for now, i listen to music and videos and youtube no problem. But no sound in skype. I went back to see settings in 8.04, everything is set to default and it works. I tried to see sound settings in 8.04 and compare it to 9.04 but they are quite different. I guess they used something different for sound in 9.04 | 04:44 |
| lstarnes | NTFS: then please leave this channel. This channel is solely for ubuntu support. If you hate ubuntu then don't come here and waste your time | 04:44 |
| esfahankids | hi | 04:44 |

| esfahankids | how to fix it? | 04:49 |
| vertagano | lstarnes: I don't think that was for me. | 04:49 |
| JCM | esfahankids > long and short of it is that it is a profile problem and the recommend is the make a new profile or uninstall and reinstall | 04:49 |
| Chr|s | esfahankids: please use pastebin | 04:49 |
| coleys | kronopio: Probably a windows virus in .wma format =D | 04:49 |
| kronopio | what are ubuntu friendly audio files? | 04:49 |
| lstarnes | vertagano: oops | 04:49 |
| coleys | kronopio: all ? | 04:49 |

| sebsebseb | coleys: the delete / without confirming command, you just gave out? | 04:54 |

| IndyGunFreak | mercutio22: its not that bad. | 04:56 |
| sebsebseb | !sound | 04:56 |
| ubottu | If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3 | 04:56 |

| ripps | mercutio22: if your having trouble with pulse just uninstall it. | 04:56 |
| nophilter | does anyone know how to edit partition table from ubuntu??? | 04:56 |
| newUser | is there a way to see all my opened windows without compiz scale? (I mean an alternative) | 04:56 |
| coleys | I have to use Pulse Audio at the moment.. My intel hda isn't supported with Alsa =( | 04:57 |
| PerryArmstrong | benje;so then how do i get it?? | 04:57 |
| mercutio22 | Yeah, I will remove it. I am sick. | 04:57 |
| IndyGunFreak | nophilter: you probably won't be able to, because the partitions are mounted, you'll probably have tod o it from a live cd | 04:57 |
| Gacker | nophilter, partition editor | 04:57 |
| NoSoundOnUbuntu | the window is bigger than the monitor and when I click Pictures or Photo I do not see them | 04:57 |
| mzz | robogu: does that system have multiple physical hard drives, not just partitions? | 04:57 |
| Gacker | yess | 04:57 |

| Gacker | nophilter, if u r using ubuntu it mush be installed by default | 04:59 |
| adalgiso | I have a hardware RAID card in my computer, it's been configured to stripe data across my 2 sata hard drives. When I enter the ubuntu partition editor, is it safe to choose one disk to repartition, or should I do setup a different way? | 04:59 |
| jacsoft | como puedo instalar el video | 04:59 |
| arktvrvs | oh i see | 04:59 |

| kriel | Any way to get a livecd to just boot to a flat terminal? | 05:00 |
| IndyGunFreak | nophilter: system/admin/partition editor | 05:00 |
| PerryArmstrong | benje; should i place the same values?? | 05:00 |
| IndyGunFreak | nophilter: assuming you installed it as we told you | 05:00 |
| Gacker | Try in terminal it will show u weather installed ot not # nophilter | 05:00 |
| benje | PerryArmstrong: no you sould use yours | 05:00 |
| nophilter | GAcker no such command | 05:00 |
| Gacker | Ok | 05:01 |
| IndyGunFreak | lol | 05:01 |
| arktvrvs | alrighty then | 05:01 |
| benje | PerryArmstrong: which you fond in manual vrefresh = vertical refresh | 05:01 |
| Gacker | sudo apt-get install gparted | 05:01 |
| IndyGunFreak | 5th time. | 05:01 |
| mzz | adalgiso: I don't own any raid hardware, but I'd expect to see a single device to partition. However if the card does not actually do raid in hardware you'd see separate devices when using it under linux. | 05:01 |
| Gacker | LOL IndyGunFreak | 05:01 |
| PerryArmstrong | benje; in maual; horiz=48.36KHz vert=60Hz | 05:01 |
| nophilter | Gacker alright will try now | 05:01 |
| IndyGunFreak | Gacker: lol, after the 3rd time, it gets a little redundant | 05:01 |
| Gacker | :D | 05:01 |
| benje | PerryArmstrong: max et min value horzontal and vertical | 05:02 |
| benje | not those | 05:02 |
| nophilter | Indy what??? | 05:02 |
| Subrosian | so no answers? | 05:02 |
| IndyGunFreak | nophilter: you were told sudo apt-get install gparted, at least 5x, and kept up your cluelessness | 05:02 |
| nophilter | Indy well i didn't see it | 05:02 |
| adalgiso | mzz: so if the card is doing it through software, I'll see both drives? If it is through software, can I just tell the Ubuntu installer to use one disk and expect that everything will work out ok? | 05:02 |
| nophilter | Indy you know there are so many words i can't see everything | 05:03 |
| IndyGunFreak | nophilter: then you should turn on highlight notifications when people say your name... cuz i said it at lesat 3x, and so did gacker | 05:03 |
| mzz | adalgiso: well, you can install on one disk, but you wouldn't get any RAID. I don't know how to do software raid, sorry. | 05:03 |
| IndyGunFreak | nophilter: thats why you turn on highlights. | 05:03 |
| nophilter | Indy how to do it on ircII | 05:03 |
| nophilter | ? | 05:03 |
| briscoelake | Good Evening, Having a bit of trouble when I suspend my laptop. When I try to bring it back up it just flashes the screen different colors until I have to kill it and reboot | 05:03 |
| PerryArmstrong | benje; ohh yes... horiz 30-54 vert 50-120 | 05:03 |
| IndyGunFreak | nophilter: i don't use ircII.. | 05:03 |
| mzz | nophilter: also why you tabcomplete the nick of who you're talking to, so their hilights work :) | 05:03 |
| lstarnes | nophilter: ircII is rather outdated isn't it? It's enabled by defaukt in irssi | 05:03 |
| nophilter | Indy well?... | 05:03 |
| IndyGunFreak | mzz: i'm used to people bastardizing my name.. i've got indy and indygun set to highlight..lol | 05:03 |
| PerryArmstrong | benje; so in the code should i replace as : HorizSync 30-54 VertRefresh 50-120?? | 05:03 |
| lstarnes | *defauly | 05:03 |

| TonyTheTiger | how can i test if i have installed wine successfully? | 05:04 |
| mzz | IndyGunFreak: did the same when my nick was longer than it currently is | 05:04 |
| IndyGunFreak | nophilter: i told you, i don't use that software.. you'll have to check in the options o hte software | 05:04 |
| benje | PerryArmstrong: yes seem ok but don't exchange vertical and horizontal | 05:04 |
| cyan123 | hello, all. how do you get a person's nick to show up without retyping it? | 05:04 |
| ripps | TonyTheTiger: you should have a Wine entry in the Application menu | 05:05 |
| benje | TonyTheTiger: winecfg | 05:05 |

| nophilter | Indy what is o hte??? | 05:05 |
| * mzz doesn't use that one | 05:05 | |
| mzz | cyan123: first few letters + tab works in many | 05:05 |
| nophilter | Indy is it some kind of command? | 05:05 |
| IndyGunFreak | nophilter: lol, thats a typo.. *the | 05:05 |
| NOD62 | cyan123: If that's what you meant. xD | 05:05 |
| TonyTheTiger | thanks ripps and co. | 05:05 |
| Subrosian | :( | 05:05 |
| benje | PerryArmstrong: i don't found manual on internet oabout your monitor in lg site | 05:05 |
| ripps | TonyTheTiger: no problem | 05:05 |
| IndyGunFreak | nophilter: why are you using a command line irc client?.. if you can't figure out something as simple as installing gparted? | 05:06 |
| malex | Jaunty trashed my root fs after an hour of use after a live upgrade. fsck from a live interepid cd gives thousands of errors. Grub is shot as well. Very interesting. | 05:06 |
| cyan123 | nod thank you | 05:06 |
| nophilter | Indy I just switched from Windows and very difficult to understand all...so I am in console all the time... | 05:06 |
| PerryArmstrong | benje; maybe it got outdated..i bought it in 1997 | 05:06 |
| cyan123 | hmm, not working as expected. | 05:06 |
| IndyGunFreak | nophilter: lol, wellt hat should make it way way easier...lol | 05:06 |
| nophilter | Indy is there a web broswer to use in console? | 05:06 |
| IndyGunFreak | nophilter: dunno | 05:06 |
| lstarnes | nophilter: links, links2, elinks, lynx, w3m | 05:06 |
| vertagano | nophilter: elinks is a great text browser | 05:06 |
| tonyyarusso | nophilter: w3m, links2, elinks. | 05:06 |
| malex | Does jaunty silently try to convert ext3 to ext4? | 05:06 |
| FloridaGuy | is there away to uninstall everything ubuntu-desktop installed.. | 05:06 |
| tonyyarusso | nophilter: In my experience, w3m has the best rendering, but links2/elinks have easier to understand navigation. | 05:07 |
| ripps | malex: no, ext4 is in an optional install time option | 05:07 |
| PerryArmstrong | benje; here's the changed xorg http://paste.ubuntu.com/163274/ have a look at it and tell me if i have placed the code at the right place | 05:07 |
| malex | ripps: thanks, so it's a bug then. | 05:07 |
| djlinux64 | anybody here from wisconsin? i need some insider info | 05:07 |

| benje | vertagano: click right on bluetooth icon check network and active your cell or else using bluettoth try to tranfret o associate | 05:13 |
| TonyTheTiger | is it possible to get an application to work if it has its ports blocked, e.g a way to change the port or route it somehow? like for a game. | 05:13 |

| mikea | Hey.. Can the ubuntu installer resize my vista partition for me? | 05:16 |
| benje | vertagano: in preferences | 05:16 |
| krammer_ | no | 05:16 |
| marcus_aurelius | i had a lattitude a long time ago, my experience with linux was less than ideal | 05:16 |
| sebsebseb | mikea: yes, but that might cuase data loss, so your meant to let Vista's tool resize it | 05:16 |
| eseven73 | krammer_, Id try brasero if you can't get k3b working | 05:16 |
| sebsebseb | mikea: Vista's resizing tools isn't that good really though | 05:16 |
| benje | blutootha have many services audio network serial and ... | 05:16 |
| vertagano | benje: Preferences gives me three options: Never show icon, Show icon if device is present, Always show icon. | 05:16 |
| krammer_ | eseven73, i tried but that seems not to burn i am having lots of badluck buring | 05:16 |
| benje | input | 05:16 |
| NOD62 | mikea: Indeed it can, but may cause damage... Sometimes you can fix that afterward with a system restore or system repair with the CD but still risky. | 05:17 |
| mikea | sebsebseb: Do I need to boot from the vista cd to do it? | 05:17 |
| benje | vertagano: jaunty ? | 05:17 |
| sebsebseb | mikea: no | 05:17 |
| vertagano | benje: 9.04 | 05:17 |
| Spoonah | hello, my network card shows up in 'lspci', do I add it too my network interfaces? | 05:17 |
| benje | vertagano: try in menu | 05:17 |
| sebsebseb | mikea: when Vista is running you can re size it's partitoin | 05:17 |
| briscoelake | marcus_aurelius: so far this has actually been working out amazingly. I know people with vista laptops that from the factory aren't working right so if I can't suspend so be it | 05:17 |
| PerryArmstrong | benje; I may buy a new monitor in a few weeks...but i am not sure if i may buy....so the again i should change the xorg.conf?? | 05:17 |
| sebsebseb | mikea: so your going to resize and then put Ubuntu on? | 05:17 |
| eseven73 | krammer_, can you burn disks in windows? (assuming you have windows or had) | 05:17 |

| PerryArmstrong | benje; whats this virtual resolution?? | 05:18 |

| PerryArmstrong | benje; and can you pm me your email id so that i can contact you if i have any further problems... | 05:19 |
| benje | PerryArmstrong: this force to set this resolution even your screen can do it | 05:19 |
| sebsebseb | tonyyarusso: yeah that looks a bit bad also on a publically logged server, but that log will disapear into oblivion anyway | 05:19 |

| EMPulse | Is there an offline version of netvibes avaliable on Ubuntu? | 05:20 |
| sebsebseb | mikea: if you don't put a size in, it like half its, but Vista can take up loads of space you don't really need it to, but once you got Ubuntu on, as long as Vista was shut down properly, you can access the partition and use it from Ubuntu | 05:20 |
| PerryArmstrong | benje; and can you pm me your email id so that i can contact you if i have any further problems... | 05:21 |
| sebsebseb | mikea: don't put a size in and it like splits it in half or something | 05:21 |
| benje | Spoonah: normally the dectection of card and load of module add device | 05:21 |
| PerryArmstrong | benje; at some other time | 05:21 |
| kronopio | coleys: could you tell me what you typed before? | 05:21 |
| Spoonah | benje: ah ok, well it is showing up on lspci as the correct card, Just can see an interface for it using 'ifconfig' | 05:22 |

| ripps | sebsebseb: try to avoid the anti-windows rhetoric, have someone that dual-boots ubuntu is better than no ubuntu at all | 05:25 |

| NoSoundOnUbuntu | how do I find them | 05:26 |

| sebsebseb | NoSoundOnUbuntu: /list | 05:26 |
| Omeil | I just wish Blizzard would just enabled HW Cursor in Windows openGL mode for us :) | 05:26 |
| sebsebseb | mikea: yes, but only the basic effects stuff | 05:26 |
| coleys | mikea: sudo apt-get install compizconfig-settings-manager | 05:27 |
| benje | Ballcutter: unplug and replug it it will be redetected if module is freeze du e to unplug in use restart | 05:27 |
| sebsebseb | mikea: then you can install the advanced settings manager | 05:27 |
| sidd | anyone here know how to get the interactive debugger (rdebug) working in 9.04 | 05:27 |

| LuciousAsh | no one knows how to manage with a low reso. screen? | 05:28 |
| benje | just the resolution which will be use by default PerryArmstrong | 05:28 |
| Enasni | I need something like clockgen for Windows, but for Ubuntu 9.04. Any suggestions? | 05:28 |
| sebsebseb | mikea: Ubuntu 9.04 is a CD and you should md5sum it before burning | 05:28 |
| sebsebseb | !md5sum | 05:28 |
| ubottu | To verify the integrity of a download, use the md5sum - see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowToMD5SUM for more | 05:28 |
| PerryArmstrong | benje; okk..but i didnt get the resolution.. | 05:28 |
| PerryArmstrong | benje; yet... | 05:28 |
| benje | LuciousAsh: virtual resolution tio get it bigger | 05:28 |
| Spoonah | benje; Oh sweet, I love u! i tried modprobe, just not rmmod, also i looked at dmesg and it changed it from eth0 to eth1 for some reason, but ya, its all good now thanks. | 05:28 |
| sebsebseb | mikea: the amount of times I told someone how to do a md5sum... the bot can do it this time I think | 05:28 |

| jcoffi | I have a jetway c7 board with a hardware watchdog timer. I'm having a hard time getting it to *not* reboot every few minutes. | 05:30 |
| waseem_ | So there is no workaround for ports being blocked? | 05:30 |
| benje | PerryArmstrong: PerryArmstrong: cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log | 05:30 |
| mikea | sebsebseb: If I'm going to go there I'll just install opensolaris with zfs :P | 05:30 |
| lstarnes | waseem_: being blocked by what? | 05:30 |
| sebsebseb | mikea: so not as new to this kind of software, as I thought | 05:31 |
| Enasni | Anyone know any good software overclocking programs for Ubuntu? | 05:31 |
| waseem_ | lstarnes, My university. I pay for the internet as part of my fee's yet they wont open certain ports for my apps. | 05:31 |
| mikea | I wish the linux kernel guys would get over their licensing issues and just port zfs | 05:31 |

| mikea | I'm building a video surveillance product at work and I'd love to use Linux running on thumpers.. | 05:31 |
| jcoffi | I could use some help. The manpages and such haven't been much help. | 05:31 |
| benje | PerryArmstrong: in the graphic pcontrol panel can you change resolution ? | 05:31 |
| usser | waseem_, is port 22 open? | 05:31 |
| waseem_ | usser, I dont know, how can i check? | 05:32 |
| ljungk | anyone here using dwm? | 05:32 |
| lstarnes | waseem_: you could try either using alternate ports, tunneling connections to another server via something like ssh, or moving somewhere with better internet access | 05:32 |
| usser | waseem_, install ssh server on your comp inside the college network | 05:32 |
| lstarnes | waseem_: there may be other options | 05:32 |
| usser | waseem_, and try to connect, if you have ssh access to the machine you can do ssh tunneling | 05:32 |
| Kazuha | waseem_: Or <IP address>:22 | 05:32 |
| mikea | atleast the disk tool is doing something | 05:32 |
| mikea | my drive 100% busy | 05:33 |
| mora | er. I'm using kubuntu, and I can't seem to make the notification tray/clock not automatically take up the entire panel. | 05:33 |
| PerryArmstrong | benje; where's that | 05:33 |
| waseem_ | Kazuha, what do you mean? | 05:33 |
| jcoffi | I have a jetway c7 board with a hardware watchdog timer. I'm having a hard time getting it to *not* reboot every few minutes. The manpages aren't helping me configure watchdog. Anyone available to help? | 05:33 |
| waseem_ | to all the users giving suggestions, its a game im trying to run so tunneling isnt really a solution. | 05:33 |
| waseem_ | how would i use alternate ports? | 05:33 |
| PerryArmstrong | benje; where's that graphic pcontrol panel | 05:34 |
| Kazuha | One way to check to see if something is on the port is to type the IP address into a browser and tell it to use port 22. | 05:34 |
| usser | waseem_, tunelling is always a solution for those kind of issues | 05:34 |
| benje | PerryArmstrong: system preferences screen resolution | 05:34 |
| Kazuha | (Ex http://127.0.0.1:22 ) | 05:34 |
| waseem_ | usser, even for games? | 05:34 |
| usser | !tunneling | 05:34 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about tunneling | 05:34 |
| waseem_ | usser, isnt tunneling when you have 2 computers and you use anothers internet connection to get your stuff done. | 05:34 |
| Kazuha | Which on my system nets: SSH-2.0-OpenSSH_5.1p1 Debian-5 Protocol mismatch. | 05:35 |
| waseem_ | I dont have 2 computers just my laptop :( | 05:35 |
| usser | waseem_, with ssh you can redirect any local ports to any other. on a local machine | 05:35 |
| PerryArmstrong | benje; but i didnt find it | 05:35 |
| waseem_ | usser, do you have a weblink which i can read to learn this stuff? | 05:35 |
| benje | PerryArmstrong: erf try to found it you have the 1024*768 resoltuion now | 05:36 |
| LuciousAsh | I can't find virtual resolution, is it already built into ubuntu? | 05:36 |
| benje | (II) intel(0): Modeline "1024x768"x0.0 65.00 1024 1048 1184 1344 768 771 777 806 -hsync -vsync (48.4 kHz) | 05:36 |

| mikea | hmm | 05:37 |
| DonDoitle | I just need to make the program do something on a signal sent but not quit | 05:37 |
| mikea | I should've probably done defrag and chkdisk before I started this | 05:37 |

| lstarnes | DonDoitle: check man kill | 05:37 |
| benje | LuciousAsh: yes in xorg | 05:37 |
| DonDoitle | I'm using SIGUSR1 right now which I didnt expect to kill it but it did | 05:37 |
| LuciousAsh | benje: so how would I access this? | 05:38 |
| mikea | hmm | 05:38 |
| jcoffi | I have a jetway c7 board with a hardware watchdog timer. I'm having a hard time getting it to *not* reboot every few minutes. The manpages aren't helping me configure watchdog. Anyone available to help? | 05:38 |
| lstarnes | DonDoitle: you need to implement a handler in the program itself for handling that signal | 05:38 |
| benje | LuciousAsh: exemple http://paste.ubuntu.com/163271/ | 05:38 |
| waseem_ | usser, thanks, your a legend :) | 05:38 |

| benje | PerryArmstrong: did you let virtual ? | 05:39 |
| benje | keep | 05:39 |
| PerryArmstrong | benje; noe | 05:39 |
| jcoffi | So no one knows? | 05:39 |
| LuciousAsh | benje: and the values you would put after virtual would be the resolution it switches to when you hit the button? | 05:39 |

| Lucas156 | not gnome | 05:40 |
| lstarnes | Lucas156: are you trying to connect to a new server while keeping this one open, or do you want to close this one as well? | 05:41 |
| Lucas156 | just connect to a new server | 05:41 |
| jcoffi | voss: the box has no top on it. its happening exactly every 17 minutes. its the watchdog timer. if I disable it then it stops happening. But I need to use it so I need to get it configured. | 05:41 |
| Lucas156 | I could close this one and it would be ok | 05:41 |
| voss | Why do you need to use it? | 05:42 |
| lstarnes | Lucas156: /newserver server.name | 05:42 |

| PROject-Emerald | kofi: go ahead. | 05:48 |
| NOD62 | kofi: Sure, what's up? | 05:48 |
| usser | waseem_, that effectively creates a local tunnel, so that any request on port 10000 will be redirected to my vnc server which runs on port 5900, so now i can access my vnc server on 192.1.1.1:10000 instead of 192.1.1.1:5900 which is blocked by firewall | 05:48 |

| wings | would anyone mind answering a few Q's | 06:07 |
| celanor | Card: HDA Intel Chip:Generic 10de ID 3 | 06:07 |
| Madpilot | wings, just ask your questions, someone will help if they can | 06:07 |
| wings | ok | 06:07 |
| celanor | All the volumes are around 70 | 06:07 |
| wings | well i installed the latest version of ubuntu 9.04 juanty jackalope | 06:08 |
| wings | and everything was great | 06:08 |
| RedSocrates | celanor: Can you put the output of the command "lsmod | grep snd" in a pastebin for me to look at? | 06:08 |
| wings | then i installed some programs the | 06:09 |
| newUser | how can I restart my windows without lose data? (like restart gdm but with no data lost and without close all my programs) | 06:09 |
| celanor | Ok | 06:09 |
| wings | system crashed | 06:09 |
| wings | but not quit the normal crach | 06:09 |
| wings | like it will start to boot | 06:10 |

| celanor | RedSocrates: http://pastebin.com/f75537190 | 06:10 |
| wings | i will see the the ubuntu logo | 06:10 |
| RedSocrates | celanor: Okay, that's good, looks like you've got the proper modules loaded | 06:11 |
| Madpilot | wings, please use one line for your question - using the Enter key as punctuation doesn't work... | 06:11 |
| kovacsleeve | Any idea why my guest session shows like Gnome instead of the normal Ubuntu desktop? | 06:11 |
| wings | then the computer flashed and i get this screen with lines everywhere | 06:11 |
| RedSocrates | celanor: Can you also pastebin the output of, I guess, "dmesg | grep intel"? | 06:11 |
| newUser | how can I restart my windows without lose data? (like restart gdm but with no data lost and without close all my programs) | 06:12 |
| celanor | RedSocrates: [ 31.244007] hda_intel: azx_get_response timeout, switching to polling mode: last cmd=0x000f0000 | 06:12 |
| RedSocrates | celanor: That's the only line, or the only one you think is relevant? | 06:12 |
| celanor | Only line | 06:12 |
| RedSocrates | celador: k, thanks | 06:13 |
| newUser | is there an alternative for Scale Plugin (compiz)? | 06:14 |
| RedSocrates | celanor: CAn you also make sure the card shows up when you type "cat /proc/asound/cards" | 06:14 |

| DonDoitle | ok using Awk I've almost got it, I can extract just the PID from the results of ps -ef but I cannot figure out how to pipe it in as the second parameter for kill | 06:15 |
| wings | I think my question is how can i get ubuntu to boot back to normal with out reinstalling the OS and having to reinstall everything again | 06:15 |
| wings | ? | 06:15 |
| cspack_ | wings: so what did you install since it was working? | 06:15 |
| jpangamarca | Hi, when I right click the title bar of a window and select "Move to another workspace" and select one of the other workspaces, the window closes instead of moving. The Workspaces Switcher applet doesn't work either, and no matter in which workspace is select, all the windows from all workspaces are shown (even though the Window List applet is configured to show windows ONLY from the current workspace). I'm using Jaunty and after googling I can't seem | 06:15 |
| prakriti | is there anyway to pipe sound output through the input? | 06:15 |
| prakriti | record the output without using cables | 06:16 |
| RedSocrates | celanor: Does "dmesg | grep hda_codec" give you anything? | 06:16 |
| wings | java, gstream stuff, vlc, eclipse, netbeans, and thats it | 06:16 |
| shiznebit | prakriti, im not sure but you might want to search for an audio loopback for linux | 06:16 |
| celanor | RedSocrates: Nothing | 06:16 |
| celanor | RedSocrates: No errors or any other feedback | 06:17 |
| Ballcutter | anyone know a command to reset my usb modem without physically unplugging - plugging it in? /etc/init.d/NetworkManager restart was getting the desired effect but now isn't. | 06:17 |
| RedSocrates | celanor: Okay, try the following. First, "sudo rmmod snd_hda_intel". Let me know if that works; it might have module dependencies, so it may not. | 06:17 |
| wings | cspack is it ok if i pm you | 06:17 |
| wings | or madpilot | 06:18 |
| celanor | RedSocrates: Says module snd_hda_intel is in use. How do I unload it? | 06:18 |
| Madpilot | wings, was everything you installed off the standard repositories, or did you pull stuff in from outside? | 06:18 |
| PROject-Emerald | are there any good screencap programs like Camtasia for UBuntu? | 06:18 |
| wings | i pulled stuff from out side | 06:19 |
| Madpilot | wings, did you get any specific error messages that you remember? "screen full of lines" isn't very specific | 06:19 |
| wings | o and i also installed dragon player, and a maryo game | 06:19 |
| shiznebit | PROject-Emerald: yes Xvid-Cap, but compile from source to get audio recording working | 06:20 |
| RedSocrates | celanor: Hm... Are you using anything right now that uses the sound card? | 06:20 |
| wings | no, no errors | 06:20 |
| PROject-Emerald | Is there an apt-get command for it? | 06:20 |
| PROject-Emerald | sudo apt-get xvid-cap? | 06:20 |
| shiznebit | sudo apt-get install xvidcap | 06:20 |
| PROject-Emerald | ty | 06:21 |
| celanor | RedSocrates: Uh... I have an instance of Pidgin running, but I disabled the sounds, I don't know if XChat uses sounds since I can't hear anything, and Firefox is running | 06:21 |
| NetEcho | I keep getting an error when I try to install gstreamer packages saying "Unable to copy the user's Xauthorization file" when trying to launch synaptic to install it | 06:21 |
| Madpeter | hello is there anyway to edit the gunb ("bootloader <_<") from within ubuntu? | 06:21 |
| Madpilot | wings, you might be better off just to reinstall at this point. Be very careful installing stuff from outside the official repositories. | 06:22 |
| RedSocrates | celanor: One sec | 06:22 |
| wings | i did get a warning about installing 3rd party | 06:22 |
| RedSocrates | Madpeter: Do you mean grub? | 06:22 |
| Madpeter | yer ^+^ | 06:22 |
| RedSocrates | Madpeter: You can edit the file /boot/grub/menu.lst | 06:22 |
| wings | damn i was hoping i wouldnt have to | 06:22 |
| kiddies | anybody now a ligth squid | 06:22 |
| RedSocrates | Madpeter: But be careful and back up the original first | 06:22 |
| kiddies | give me an example | 06:22 |
| zxd | hI | 06:23 |
| chinosuke | i cannot use wireshark in promiscuous mode on ubuntu9.04. It's worked in 8.04 | 06:23 |
| zxd | everyone | 06:23 |
| bullgard4 | Yesterday I changed the size of two partitions using GParted. But GParted changed the UUID of only one of them. Why? | 06:23 |
| wings | madpiolit | 06:23 |
| kiddies | anybody know a ligth squid | 06:23 |
| Madpilot | wings, it could be fixable, but hard to say w/o specific error messages, really | 06:23 |
| rz187 | can someone tell me where or how to get the little widget on the side of this theme? http://gnome-look.org/content/show.php/Slickness+Black?content=73210 | 06:23 |
| zxd | I am running interpid , and sometimes the usplash screen reveals the console before finishing loading all the /etc/init.d scripts | 06:23 |
| Wolf23 | help me please, when i try to open firefox and opening a website it blocks the screen with a color grey and after seconds it appears like normally, and everytime when moving the mouse it happens the samething | 06:23 |
| prakriti | there is a howto on here: | 06:23 |
| prakriti | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PulseAudio | 06:23 |
| shiznebit | Madpilot: how can any sources be trusted ? | 06:23 |
| wings | madpiolit: i think it can too i just need to find out how to fix that gui displa | 06:24 |
| wings | madpiolit: i think it can too i just need to find out how to fix that gui display* | 06:24 |
| Madpilot | shiznebit, the official sources are secure. that's the whole point of the PGP Keys and other authentication/security stuff... | 06:24 |
| celanor | RedSocrates: I used "sudo alsa force-unload" after quitting pidgin. | 06:24 |
| kovacsleeve | Any idea why my guest session shows like basic Gnome instead of the normal Ubuntu desktop? | 06:24 |
| cspack_ | wings: maybe check your /var/log/Xorg.0.log file for errors, since it sounds like a video problem | 06:24 |
| bullgard4 | Wolf23: Please try to re-word your question and state clearly what you did and saw. | 06:24 |
| RedSocrates | celanor: Okay, did you check with lsmod to see that it unloaded? | 06:25 |
| PROject-Emerald | With Xvidcap, is there a way for me to disable hardware acceleration? I'm getting realyl bad FPS on a really crappy java game | 06:25 |
| Madpilot | wings, do you know about tab-complete in IRC? Type 'madp' then hit Tab, you should get my full nick that way | 06:25 |
| PROject-Emerald | making my PC slow etc | 06:25 |
| speakman | hi folks! just upgraded from intrepid to Jaunty on my FS Lifebook, and now the graphics are totaly f**ed up :( | 06:25 |
| shiznebit | Madpilot: as in they are looked over and inspected for backdoors, compatibility, etc ? | 06:25 |
| cappicard | this is a bit annoying. kexec keeps being called when I want to restart my computer. i dual-boot windows and ubuntu | 06:25 |
| Madpeter | RedSocrates: I receaved a permissions error when attempting to save, the permissions gui does not let me change this V_V | 06:25 |
| Madpilot | shiznebit, it's all open source software. that's the whole point, ANYONE can look over the code. | 06:25 |
| wings | madp | 06:25 |
| celanor | RedSocrates: And now using "sudo rmmod snd_hda_intel" I got "ERROR: Module snd_hda_intel does not exist in /proc/modules" "lsmod | grp snd" returned nothing | 06:25 |
| PROject-Emerald | shiznebit: this is making my PC really slow... any way to increase performance? | 06:26 |
| RedSocrates | celanor: k. Now reload the module. "sudo modprobe snd_hda_intel" | 06:26 |
| RedSocrates | Madpeter: Are you trying to edit it with a gui? Which one? gedit? | 06:26 |
| chinosuke | i cannot use wireshark in promiscuous mode on ubuntu9.04. It worked in 8.04 | 06:26 |
| Madpeter | yer the text editer installed by default (gedit) | 06:26 |
| zxd | does usplash timeout? | 06:26 |
| celanor | RedSocrates: Okay | 06:26 |
| wings | cspack how will i know what to do in the file | 06:27 |
| Wolf23 | bullgard4: thanx ok,when i open firefox and open any website the screen change to color grey like freezing about 10 or 20 seconds and then it works normally... and everytime i try to open any website it happens the samething | 06:27 |
| RedSocrates | Madpeter: You can try using "gksudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst". If that doesn't work, try "sudo" instead of "gksudo" | 06:27 |
| RedSocrates | celanor: All right, now type "dmesg | tail". Are there any lines about the intel module loading? | 06:27 |
| speakman | Is there any way to start X in a "safe-mode" ? | 06:28 |
| shiznebit | PROject-Emerald: im sorry i don't know any way. I find xvidcap fairly good. im not sure what the problem is. | 06:28 |
| Madpeter | RedSocrates: Thanks for your help. ^_^ | 06:28 |
| RedSocrates | Madpeter: No prob :) | 06:28 |
| shiznebit | PROject-Emerald: ask the linux gods ? | 06:28 |
| PROject-Emerald | It's just reduces performance | 06:28 |
| sebsebseb | speakman: Linux distros do not have safemode, however Ubuntu has a recovery mode | 06:28 |
| sebsebseb | speakman: that you can get into from the bootloader. and then reconfigure xorg | 06:28 |
| Madpeter | wish me luck ^_^ reboot with an edited boot load :P | 06:29 |
| celanor | RedSocrates: http://pastebin.com/m1524c2d2 | 06:29 |
| RedSocrates | Madpeter: Good luck :) | 06:29 |
| cspack_ | wings: just look for any obvious errors in the file or you can pastebin it so others here can see it | 06:29 |
| chinosuke | I cannot use wireshark 9.04 in promiscuous mode. It worked in 8.04 | 06:29 |
| Wolf23 | bullgard4: do u understand my problem dude? | 06:30 |
| bullgard4 | Wolf23: Open the firefox in a GNOME terminal and look to see if there are error messages. Analyze /var/log/syslog for error messages at this time. If none appear I presume that a Firefox plugin is the culprit. Unload successively all Firefox plugins until the error disappears. | 06:30 |
| PROject-Emerald | Is there a way to disable hardware acceleration? | 06:30 |
| RedSocrates | celanor: k, I'm looking at a few things. Can you verify that the sound is still having issues after reloading? | 06:30 |
| wings | pastebin? | 06:30 |
| Madpilot | ubottu, pastebin | wings | 06:31 |
| ubottu | wings: 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) | 06:31 |
| Wolf23 | bullgard4: ok i try | 06:31 |

| wings | ok | 06:33 |
| bullgard4 | PROject-Emerald: Yes. As an introduction, read https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AcceleratedX | 06:33 |
| speakman | sebsebseb: Thanks, but even removing the xorg.conf still f***s up my graphics. It's an Intel 82852/855GM integrated graphics adapter. Any known problem with these? | 06:33 |
| celanor | RedSocrates: I got sound for a few seconds playing a video in VLC, but it was playoing in approx. .25 second blips with gaps | 06:33 |
| RedSocrates | celanor: Okay, thanks | 06:33 |
| MaNiAc | anyone know why ubuntu isnt picking up my flashdrive or any of my memory cards? | 06:33 |
| wings | http://paste.ubuntu.com/163310/ | 06:34 |
| sebsebseb | speakman: known problems with Intel graphics and 9.04 yes | 06:34 |
| kovacsleeve | Any idea why my guest session shows like basic Gnome instead of the normal Ubuntu desktop? | 06:34 |
| sebsebseb | speakman: can you even log in to Ubuntu? | 06:34 |
| bullgard4 | MaNiAc: Analyze your dmesg | 06:34 |
| wings | i hope i did it right | 06:34 |
| MaNiAc | bullgard4 ? what do you mean? | 06:34 |
| rz187 | can someone tell me where or how to get the little widget on the side of this theme? http://gnome-look.org/content/show.php/Slickness+Black?content=73210 | 06:34 |

| speakman | sebsebseb: running irssi from console ;) | 06:34 |
| sebsebseb | speakman: there's something about Intel graphics in the 9.04 release notes | 06:35 |
| sebsebseb | speakman: basically your not going to get any luck it seems at the moment | 06:35 |
| sebsebseb | speakman: untill there is a fix | 06:35 |
| wings | http://paste.ubuntu.com/163310/plain/ | 06:35 |
| bullgard4 | MaNiAc: 'dmesg' is a command and the output of kernel messages. Please read 'man dmesg' as an introduction. | 06:35 |
| celanor | RedSocrates: It also takes about a minute of playback before it starts | 06:36 |
| speakman | sebsebseb: really?? so my laptop is not usable until a fix is sent?? | 06:36 |
| RedSocrates | speakman: I have that same card and X works for me with no /etc/X11/xorg.conf. Do you have hal running? | 06:36 |
| speakman | RedSocrates: hald is running, yes | 06:36 |
| RedSocrates | celanor: k. Looking things up, I have no experience with the card you have. | 06:36 |
| RedSocrates | speakman: Hm, okay, that was my only thought. It should be autodetecting everything :-/ | 06:37 |
| celanor | RedSocrates: It's an integrated laptop sound card. HP dv4 1200 Model FJ880AV | 06:37 |
| speakman | RedSocrates: it does autodetect the correct chip and all, but it still wont' work | 06:37 |
| sebsebseb | speakman: 3 or so Intel hardware issues | 06:37 |
| celanor | RedSocrates: Thats the laptop model | 06:37 |
| sebsebseb | speakman: http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/releasenotes/904 | 06:38 |
| RedSocrates | speakman: Have you tried installing the legacy drivers? | 06:38 |
| speakman | sebsebseb: strange... | 06:38 |
| sebsebseb | speakman: see for yourself in the release notes | 06:38 |
| Z3ro3X | Why does Evolution spaz out when I try sending an GPG encrypted email with someone's key that has no email in the key? I get this error message "Because "Failed to execute gpg: Broken pipe", you may need to select different mail options." | 06:38 |
| U-b-u-n-t-u | is there some bug issue with setting the network ip as static with 9.04? | 06:38 |
| sebsebseb | speakman: and 8.10 has another year of suppourt, and that was a pretty good release | 06:38 |
| RedSocrates | speakman: Actually, Ubuntu may automatically install the legacy drivers... I'm not sure | 06:38 |
| RedSocrates | celanor: Okay, thanks | 06:38 |
| bullgard4 | Yesterday I changed the size of two partitions using GParted. But why did GParted change the UUID of only one of them? | 06:38 |
| MaNiAc | bullgard4 i did dmesg and found out that ubuntu picked it up but i cant access it for some reason | 06:38 |
| RedSocrates | celanor: Incidentally, there were apparently some issues with this sound card in Jaunty during beta | 06:38 |
| jpangamarca | @U-b-u-n-t-u : Not actually. I'm connected that way right now. It's not like Intrepid anymore. | 06:39 |
| rz187 | a | 06:39 |
| rz187 | ddf | 06:39 |
| celanor | RedSocrates: What can I do to resolve it | 06:39 |
| MaNiAc | bullgard4 it says unable to mount location... hold on im going to try to mount it. | 06:39 |
| ctrlmd | simple Question : how do i preform a copy of a file from desktop to file system | 06:39 |
| RedSocrates | celanor: Not sure, I haven't seen any problem that sounds exactly like yours | 06:40 |
| jpangamarca | @ctrlmd: You mean, to / ? | 06:40 |
| ctrlmd | to | 06:40 |
| PROject-Emerald | Is there a way to disable hardware acceleration for recording screens on a crappy PC? | 06:40 |
| speakman | sebsebseb: yes, intrepid was good but jaunty is already installed... | 06:40 |
| lstarnes | ctrlmd: it's already in your /home/<username>/Desktop folder which is on the filesystem | 06:40 |
| bullgard4 | MaNiAc: "I can't access" is no precise description. Please try to report an error message. Otherwise, what you did exactly and did not get what response exactly. | 06:40 |
| U-b-u-n-t-u | jpangamarca when I try to set it the net wont come up | 06:40 |
| celanor | RedSocrates: Does Ubuntu maintain past distro's? | 06:40 |
| sebsebseb | speakman: the issues in release notes effect you? | 06:41 |
| RedSocrates | celanor: One suggestion that apparently helped others was to enter the following commands: "sudo apt-get install module assistant", "sudo m-a update", "sudo m-a prepare", "sudo m-a a-i alsa" | 06:41 |
| ctrlmd | lol i mean to screenlet folder | 06:41 |
| RedSocrates | celanor: Sorry, the first one should say module-assistant | 06:41 |
| RedSocrates | celanor: And I have no experience with that tool, so don't know exactly what it will do. Yes, Ubuntu does maintain past distros; I don't know how your card fared in them | 06:41 |
| sebsebseb | celanor: only for so long | 06:42 |
| RedSocrates | ^ | 06:42 |
| sebsebseb | celanor: and some get long term suppourt 3 years on the desktop and 5 on the server | 06:42 |

| jcoffi | Does anyone have experience working with hardware based watchdog timers? | 06:42 |
| sebsebseb | celanor: 8.04 (April 2008) is the current LTS. 8.10 amd 9.04 are standard releases | 06:42 |
| jpangamarca | @U-b-u-n-t-u: Check that the network cable isn't loose. Also you may need to set your new connection profile to connect automatically. | 06:42 |
| speakman | sebsebseb: no not exactly actually. their talking about freezing and log performance. Here it's more like faulty timings or something. Hard to explain what it looks like. | 06:42 |
| MaNiAc | bullgard4 it didnt report any error but it did pick up what kind of device it is. | 06:43 |
| bullgard4 | Yesterday I changed the size of two partitions using GParted. But why did GParted change the UUID of only one of them? | 06:43 |
| sebsebseb | speakman: you can set up about xorg again and that's about it | 06:43 |
| sebsebseb | !xorg | 06:43 |

| Madpilot | speakman, I haven't followed your whole problem, but have you filed bugs over on Launchpad? The full-time bug triagers & devs are most active there | 06:45 |
| RedSocrates | celanor: k, good luck. If they don't work, I would definitely check out that page I just linked. Some of the problems discussed there seem at least similar toyours | 06:45 |
| PROject-Emerald | 06:45 | |
| guestadmin | Am I wrong to assume that I shouldn't be able to log in here if my ports are all slammed shut by firewall? | 06:45 |
| jcoffi | Does anyone have experience working with hardware based watchdog timers? I'm stuck and could use some direction. | 06:45 |
| RedSocrates | guestadmin: What do you mean when you say your parts are "all slammed shut"? | 06:46 |
| RedSocrates | guestadmin: ports | 06:46 |
| U-b-u-n-t-u | anyone see anything wrong with these settings http://paste.ubuntu.com/163317/ | 06:46 |

| guestadmin | RedSocrates: Firestarter, Locked button, before, I had never been able to surf or login here with that pushed | 06:46 |
| RedSocrates | sebsebseb: I know that; I'm asking him to clarify a bit | 06:46 |
| sebsebseb | RedSocrates: I messaged wrong guy | 06:46 |
| guestadmin | RedSocrates: Very odd computer behavior today too | 06:47 |
| RedSocrates | sebsebseb: Oh, gotcha. Then yeah, you and I are thinking the same thing | 06:47 |
| jpangamarca | @U-b-u-n-t-u: The configuration lines for that network interface are commented (#) In order to work the #s must be removed | 06:47 |

| sebsebseb | guestadmin: firestarter sucks pretty much | 06:47 |
| sebsebseb | guestadmin: you should have a hardware firewall enabled :) | 06:48 |
| murlidhar | U-b-u-n-t-u: it will autonmatically configure dhcp settings | 06:48 |
| sebsebseb | guestadmin: router or otherwise | 06:48 |
| U-b-u-n-t-u | yeah? | 06:48 |
| U-b-u-n-t-u | ok murlidhar I will try that one sec | 06:48 |
| sebsebseb | guestadmin: and iptables isn't exactly easy to set up | 06:48 |
| sebsebseb | !iptables | 06:48 |
| ubottu | Ubuntu, like any other linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'ufw' command (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Uncomplicated_Firewall_ufw), or 'iptables' (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo). GUI applications such as Firestarter/Gufw (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE) also exist | 06:48 |
| guestadmin | sebsebseb: aha, I see traffic moving anyways, despite my block, and firefox causes hard crash | 06:48 |
| jpangamarca | @U-b-u-n-t-u: if you need static ips that lines must be uncommented | 06:48 |
| RedSocrates | iptables can be fairly easy if you have minimal or no services | 06:49 |
| sebsebseb | guestadmin: why would you block ports for say webpages and IRC? | 06:49 |
| RedSocrates | Otherwise, yeah, it's rough | 06:49 |
| celanor | Redsocrates: thanks :) | 06:49 |
| RedSocrates | celanor: Did it work? | 06:49 |
| celanor | Redsocrates: dunno yet, gotta reload alsa | 06:49 |
| U-b-u-n-t-u | jpangamarca, yeah I know, but since it didnt work I # | 06:49 |
| RedSocrates | celanor: k, good luck, let me know | 06:50 |
| WebcamWonder | So, how do I underclock my nVidia running the proprietary drivers? | 06:50 |
| MarkJones | why would you underclock a video card? | 06:50 |
| sebsebseb | guestadmin: and the Firefox in Ubuntu crashes for some us yes | 06:50 |
| guestadmin | sebsebseb: To find out what was going on, all of a sudden I couldnt use firefox, and Firestarter got a red flash , then kept crashing, then my browser went to have size, so i quickly locked the ports | 06:50 |

| R_Rios | Running Kubuntu 9.04 | 06:51 |
| R_Rios | Upgraded from 8.10 | 06:51 |
| mysticdarkhack | does anyone know the command line how to move a folder name with space like new wave to a diretory? | 06:51 |
| guestadmin | sebsebseb: no, public city wireless | 06:52 |
| RedSocrates | mysticdarkhack: You need a \ before the space | 06:52 |
| MarkJones | WebcamWonder: Does your laptop bios offer cool and quiet or anything simaler for power and fan managment? | 06:52 |
| sebsebseb | guestadmin: enabled hardware firewall in the router and you should be ok | 06:52 |
| WebcamWonder | mysticdarkhack: escape the space with a slash, mv blank\ folder | 06:52 |
| sebsebseb | guestadmin: hummm I see | 06:52 |
| Severian | mysticdarkhack, the easiest way is to put quotes around the name | 06:52 |

| gahg | would someone be able to help me with something? | 06:52 |
| guestadmin | sebsebseb: deal ;) | 06:52 |
| murlidhar | R_Rios: my advice would be to do a fresh installation but my advice is not the correct solution | 06:53 |
| WebcamWonder | MarkJones: I believe the idle way is to turn on Coolbits and manage it from the config utility... but with regards to the speeds and options available, I have no clue | 06:53 |

| mysticdarkhack | RedSocrates, think you can give an example of the command? | 06:53 |
| MarkJones | WebcamWonder: Yeah not sure if you can underclock with coolbits or not. | 06:53 |
| sebsebseb | gahg: with? | 06:53 |
| gahg | umm...just wondering iv been trying to connect to irc.webchat.org with xfire on ubuntu and i cant figure out how to -_- | 06:53 |
| RedSocrates | ctrlmd: You can't use 'cp' on directories unless you pass it the '-r' option, as in: cp -r directoryname | 06:53 |
| mysticdarkhack | ah | 06:54 |
| jcoffi | Flannel: It is on topic. I mean, I'm trying to get it to work properly in Ubuntu 9.04 Server. The hardware itself works fine. I just need to get Ubuntu to tell the hardware that everything is ok and that there's no need to trigger a reboot. :( | 06:54 |
| mysticdarkhack | thank you all so much | 06:54 |
| RedSocrates | mystickdarkhack: Sure: mv directory\ name destinationname | 06:54 |
| ctrlmd | ok thank you | 06:54 |
| sebsebseb | gahg: with which client? | 06:54 |
| RedSocrates | mysticdarkhack: No prob | 06:54 |
| RedSocrates | ctrlmd: Welcome | 06:54 |
| Sodra | how do you force end program? | 06:54 |
| MarkJones | WebcamWonder: Maybe you need to call your laptop manufacturer and ask them why its so hot? Thats a bit extreme IMO. | 06:54 |
| RedSocrates | Sodra: You can use the 'kill' program from the command line | 06:54 |
| murlidhar | Sodra: using the kill command | 06:54 |
| Sodra | thank you | 06:54 |
| jpangamarca | @U-b-u-n-t-u: Mmm. My computer's IP is configured as static using the Network applet. I just cat'ed the /etc/network/interfaces and there's only the line for the loopback interface. Darn, don't know how to configure that manually. I thought it'd be there for ethXs too. | 06:55 |
| WebcamWonder | MarkJones: My processor goes upto 86 degrees. It is HP, they know about this, and won't do anything extra ordinary.. just replace the part if they die | 06:55 |
| Flannel | jcoffi: Ah. Try the watchdog package. | 06:55 |
| PROject-Emerald | I need help with Xvid.... | 06:55 |
| murlidhar | Sodra: if using gnome desktop u can use the task manager | 06:55 |
| jcoffi | Flannel: I did. That's where I'm having the issue. | 06:55 |
| sebsebseb | PROject-Emerald: get the multimedia codecs installed first | 06:55 |
| MarkJones | WebcamWonder: Yep HP, doesnt suprise me with them. | 06:55 |
| PROject-Emerald | Which ones, Sebsebseb? | 06:55 |
| Flannel | jcoffi: Well, the description does mention software watchdogs, so that package may not handle hardware ones. | 06:56 |
| sebsebseb | PROject-Emerald: sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras will take care of it, as well as java and things | 06:56 |
| PROject-Emerald | I got that | 06:56 |
| MarkJones | WebcamWonder: How old is the laptop? | 06:56 |

| sebsebseb | PROject-Emerald: mplayer can do like all suppourted linux formats | 06:56 |
| sebsebseb | PROject-Emerald: for multimedia | 06:56 |
| MarkJones | WebcamWonder: You probably have googled your brains out trying to find some info it already I take it? | 06:57 |
| Lucas156 | I wish I could standardize my music files to work with my pc and my mp3 player | 06:57 |
| PROject-Emerald | Will it work with my crappy system? | 06:57 |
| PROject-Emerald | and mplayer records video? | 06:57 |
| sebsebseb | PROject-Emerald: mplayer will work yeah, and something else records videos, what kind of videos? | 06:57 |
| sebsebseb | PROject-Emerald: vlc and banshee install those to :) | 06:57 |
| WebcamWonder | MarkJones: Yeah.... this thing even died once and had to send it in for repair. It is all b/c of the nVidia chipset on this. It has the infamous chipset which overheats... and burns the motherboard alongside it | 06:57 |

| x64isfaster222 | does it matter? | 06:59 |
| sebsebseb | PROject-Emerald: these sites may also be useful, and not just for this. http://www.osalt.com http://www.linuxeq.com | 06:59 |
| RedSocrates | celanor: Well, like I said, I don't know how the support was for that card on older distros. Might want to google that as well first | 07:00 |
| RedSocrates | celanor: Or check out that link I mentioned, it discusses at least earlier versions of Ubuntu | 07:00 |
| sebsebseb | PROject-Emerald: how much RAM? | 07:00 |
| jcoffi | x64isfaster222: They're one in the same. | 07:00 |
| PROject-Emerald | 512MB | 07:00 |
| x64isfaster222 | they ought to remove "amd64" and change it to just "x64" | 07:00 |
| sebsebseb | PROject-Emerald: did you install the graphics card drive? | 07:00 |
| sebsebseb | driver | 07:00 |
| Flannel | x64isfaster222: That's just the name of the architecture. Just like i386 is for all x86 processors, not specifically *i*ntel | 07:01 |
| celanor | Redsocrates: Ill check it out later tomorrow, I've had enough for one night | 07:01 |

| trelane | got a friend who upgraded to 9.04 and migrated to ext4. He's got grub, and I think I'm going to have to push him to grub2 because it's not reading ext4.

| celanor | Redsocrates: Thanks anyways though | 07:02 |
| RedSocrates | celanor: Welcome :) | 07:02 |
| jcoffi | x64isfaster222: The "i" in i386 is for intel because they came up with the architecture not because its exclusive to them. AMD came up with x86_64 so AMD got AMD64 | 07:02 |
| sebsebseb | trelane: that issue is in the release notes and a fix http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/releasenotes/904 | 07:02 |

| Desi_Muna | MarkJones lol | 07:09 |
| MarkJones | hehe | 07:09 |
| RedSocrates | Madpeter: You should also know that the numbering in grub can (in fact, usually is) different from the numbering used by the kernel. For example, the kernel begins numbering at 1 (/dev/sda1, etc.) and grub begins numbering at 0 (hd0, etc.) | 07:09 |
| Guest22028 | This will bestow unimaginable wisdom upon you "sudo apt-get install myballs" | 07:09 |

| harovali | usser: i'm here again trying to get blueman up and running | 07:17 |
| FezK | bcleveng: u might want to try 8.10 rather than 8.04, its better with hardware support | 07:17 |
| MarkJones | T_T_T: Places menu, Computer? | 07:17 |
| MaNiAc | warm boot | 07:17 |
| usser | harovali, heh still not working | 07:17 |
| T_T_T_ | MarkJones: That shows my windows partition, cd drive, filesystem, and RECOVERY. | 07:17 |
| harovali | usser: i took a rest :-) | 07:18 |
| MarkJones | bcleveng: I wish 8.10 had worked better for my system.Had nothing but pulseaudio fits.Oh well 9.04 is here to save the day. | 07:18 |
| bcleveng | FezK: I might give that a shot... It just seems like 8.04 should work since that's what Dell sells them with. | 07:18 |
| xathullu | Im having trouble with madwifi and my card. Ubuntu doesnt seem to recognize card. | 07:18 |
| RedSocrates | T_T_T_: Assuming the drive is connected to the computer and recognized, typing "fdisk -l" at the command line should show the drive's device name. You could then manually mount it | 07:18 |
| RedSocrates | xathullu: What card is it? | 07:18 |
| Guest22028 | peace bitches | 07:19 |
| MarkJones | T_T_T_: Plug the drive in after bootup, I think sometimes they dont show up when plugged in before finished booting to desktop. | 07:19 |
| xathullu | <redsocrates> its an atheros card | 07:19 |
| RedSocrates | T_T_T_: Sorry, you should preface "fdisk -l" with "sudo" | 07:19 |
| dagray | deathstarkittens.com | 07:19 |
| MarkJones | T_T_T_: Also what file system is the hard drive using? | 07:19 |
| dagray | !!! | 07:19 |
| dagray | haha | 07:19 |
| dagray | sorry about that | 07:19 |

| ubottu | dagray, please see my private message | 07:20 |
| bullgard4 | Yesterday I changed the size of two partitions using GParted. But why did GParted change the UUID of only one of them? | 07:20 |
| T_T_T_ | Thanks RedSocrates. MarkJones: Not sure what filesystem the harddrive is using. | 07:20 |
| harovali | usser: blueman-applet runs well as you saw, and the device is enabled, as the hardware switch and the light show. Anyway, i put my phone to acknowledge new bluetooth devices, but the notebook's one doesn't show up, neither the notebook acknowledges the phone. What do you think? | 07:20 |
| T_T_T_ | MJ: (hope you don't mind MJ), do you know how I can go about finding it? | 07:20 |
| MarkJones | T_T_T_: Hmm Is it a USB drive? | 07:20 |
| T_T_T_ | Ya it's connected by USB | 07:20 |
| MarkJones | T_T_T_: New drive? | 07:21 |
| Madpeter | ok back, ^_^ its knida working it hangs on "starting ..." is there anyway to edit the "ntldr" from within ubuntu? right now the text editer will not load it | 07:21 |
| usser | harovali, right click blueman-applet -> adapters->always visible | 07:21 |
| T_T_T_ | Two or three years. | 07:21 |
| T_T_T_ | MJ^ | 07:21 |
| RedSocrates | xathullu: Can you give me a bit more info? Does it display properly using lspci? What modules are loaded? Are they the ones from the installation CD or did you try compiling new modules? | 07:21 |
| MarkJones | T_T_T_: Originally on Winblows machine? | 07:21 |
| bcleveng | sacarlson: No, I'm pretty new to this... What information specifically would I be looking for? | 07:21 |
| harovali | usser: but here blueman-applet didn't show a gui | 07:21 |
| T_T_T_ | No she's using a Mac | 07:22 |
| usser | harovali, you said it was running. the icon isnt there still? | 07:22 |
| RedSocrates | Madpeter: I don't know exactly, but I do remember that when I used to dual boot with Windows, I also had to edit c:\boot.ini to get things working | 07:22 |
| harovali | usser: exactly | 07:22 |
| MarkJones | T_T_T_: Ahh might want to ask these other guys if a mac drive is suported. Might want to format as fat32 for sharing sake next time. | 07:22 |
| RedSocrates | Madpeter: Can't really tell you much more than that, though | 07:22 |
| MarkJones | T_T_T_:Maybe that file system aint suported out of the box. | 07:23 |
| T_T_T_ | Ah. | 07:23 |
| sacarlson | bcleveng the video device brand to start like intel nvidia via ... | 07:23 |

| MarkJones | Guys are mac formatted drives seen out of the box in Ubuntu? | 07:23 |

| Madpeter | RedSocrates: is there anyway to do a test load from within the OS so I can see if its working (so I dont have to restart) | 07:24 |
| MarkJones | Hurray for ubottu! | 07:24 |
| MarkJones | T_T_T_: See that ? | 07:24 |
| harovali | usser: thanks anyway. The thing is , blueman-applet runs and shows output (no errors) but doesn't show an icon | 07:24 |

| harovali | usser: do I have to run blueman-applet as root ? | 07:27 |
| MarkJones | Madpeter: You mean run a virtual machine? | 07:27 |
| Madpeter | MarkJones: yer I think so :P (has no idea) | 07:27 |
| MarkJones | Madpeter: VirtualBox | 07:28 |

| harovali | usser: yes, it runs, and it shows a little window with just a 'close' button | 07:29 |
| MarkJones | faheus: Ask your question. | 07:29 |
| InCrypto | since 9.04 migration assistant can now migrate a existing ubuntu install ..does it migrate the application settings to ? | 07:29 |
| trelane | sebsebseb: thanks, got the grub issue fixed | 07:29 |
| harovali | usser: blueman-manager runs, and shows a window with buttons and menu but all disabled | 07:30 |
| InCrypto | and not to mention Thunderbird mails ...since they were not migrated from an existing xp installation | 07:30 |
| faheus | when i open the Synaptic i see: "E: Encountered a section with no Package: header | 07:30 |

| etfb | Most of the time that I hibernate and resume my laptop, it immediately suspends to RAM and I have to resume it again. Why is that? | 07:34 |
| pronoy_ | tindo: what theme are you using ? | 07:34 |
| tindo | overglossed | 07:35 |
| pronoy_ | tindo: no i meant the link | 07:35 |
| WebcamWonder | tindo: Usually the screenshots have some tweaks to their WM and other things | 07:35 |
| tindo | http://www.gnome-look.org/content/show.php/Overglossed?content=74813 | 07:35 |
| InCrypto | anyone ? | 07:36 |
| faheus | WebcamWonder, no -> http://paste.ubuntu.com/163345/ curious | 07:36 |
| WebcamWonder | faheus: Do you have another synaptic, etc. open? | 07:36 |
| MarkJones | InCrypto: Try it and let us know. :) | 07:36 |
| MarkJones | hehe I have no clue. | 07:36 |
| harovali | usser: i purged blueman. before reinstalling, i checked what is installed that has blue... as prefix, and there is blutoothd . Do you think I have to uninstall that daemon ? or on the contrary blueman will benefit from it running ? | 07:36 |
| InCrypto | MarkJones, :) | 07:36 |
| InCrypto | i shall | 07:36 |
| pronoy_ | tindo: what effect are you not getting ? | 07:36 |
| faheus | yes, i've sp stupid, beeing in one second back | 07:37 |
| tindo | i'm not getting any of the effects | 07:37 |
| Gnea | MarkJones: directory structures usually stay the same with thunderbird, within major releases, so since it's still 2.x, I doubt that it'll need to be done and it will pick it right back up, as long as your /home/dir is still intact | 07:37 |
| usser | harovali, no but blueman depends on something else that might be useful to reinstall hang on | 07:37 |
| pronoy_ | tindo: you mean the animations? | 07:37 |
| InCrypto | MarkJones, another issue ive been facin since a while now is tht i cannot update to Ubuntu 9.04 from 8.10 ..it keeps givin me a SErver maybe overloaded error | 07:37 |
| WebcamWonder | InCrypto: Here is the wiki. Doesn't seem to be much helpful https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MigrationAssistance | 07:37 |
| Gnea | InCrypto: er, what i typed to MarkJones :) | 07:37 |
| MarkJones | hehe Thats ok. | 07:38 |
| speakman | sebsebseb: reverting to intel driver 2.4 fixed my issues. | 07:38 |

| harovali | usser: i 'll hang on | 07:38 |

| tindo | whats compiz? i'm new to linux so bear with me | 07:38 |
| WebcamWonder | !who | tindo | 07:38 |
| ubottu | tindo: As you can see, this is a large channel. If you're speaking to someone in particular, please put their nickname in what you say (use !tab), or else messages get lost and it becomes confusing :) | 07:38 |
| Gnea | !compiz | tindo | 07:38 |
| InCrypto | from a win xp install it migarted my Firefox profile | 07:38 |
| ubottu | tindo: Compiz (compositing window manager), for a howto see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompositeManager and more help #compiz-fusion | 07:38 |

| pronoy_ | !compiz | tindo | 07:39 |
| Gnea | tindo: basically, it's a program that makes the desktop look all tricked-out with 3d graphics | 07:39 |
| WebcamWonder | InCrypto: To migrate thunderbird, just copy the thunderbird folder from application data in Windows over to your ~ | 07:39 |
| DonDoitle | hmm... when I run a command it works, when It ell cron to run it nothing happens :/ | 07:39 |
| WebcamWonder | InCrypto: With a few name changes of the parent directory, it works exactly fine. I have done it 3 times now | 07:39 |
| faheus | also not :( http://paste.ubuntu.com/163348/ | 07:39 |
| Gnea | DonDoitle: what's your crontab entry look like? | 07:39 |
| grawity | WebcamWonder: Correction: Thunderbird _profile_ folder. | 07:39 |
| InCrypto | WebcamWonder, yes im aware of that but i was lookin for a more "automated" way :) ..but i guess thats how automated Tb gets | 07:40 |
| tindo | Gnea where do i get it please | 07:40 |
| briscoelake | My computer will suddenly slow down and obviously the processor is heating up because the fan goes nuts. but when I look in htop to see what's doing it nothing is going crazy. The only thing I can find that appears odd is in the NI column one process has -4 but I can't seem to find what that means | 07:40 |
| WebcamWonder | grawity: InCrypto Yeah, sorry. I meant that... | 07:40 |
| pronoy_ | tindo: its in the repo...sudo apt-get install compiz | 07:40 |

| WebcamWonder | faheus: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=332671 | 07:41 |
| DonDoitle | ahhh I got it I think, crontab doesnt have a path file so I cant just do kill I have to do /bin/kill It hink | 07:41 |
| Gnea | tindo: okay, it should already be installed, just follow the directions in the URL that ubottu gave you and, along with that apt-get install command, you should have it up and running in no time | 07:41 |
| Madpilot | tindo, 9.04 comes with compiz by default | 07:41 |
| WebcamWonder | faheus: Also check if your sources.list doesn't have any repos that might be conflicting or bad | 07:41 |

| lvs | Hm.....I think everything was upgraded all at once. Since then, I have installed and reinstalled most of the Nvidia binaries out there. Including the beta drivers | 07:47 |
| InCrypto | i see | 07:48 |
| MarkJones | InCrypto: Why not just download jaunty cd and be done with it? | 07:48 |
| pronoy_ | Ivs: did you have the same problem with intrepid ? | 07:48 |
| lvs | I haven't tried that. A clean install of Jaunty. | 07:48 |
| Gnea | lvs: we try to advocate against using the drivers directly from nvidia.com, since a lot of the hooks of the .deb packages make it work better | 07:48 |
| K4k | anyone figured out how to perminantly remove the sys beep in 9.04? | 07:48 |
| InCrypto | MarkJones, cuz i wanna benchmark its performance with ext3 and ext4 ..later i have 2 deploy it to the sales team | 07:48 |
| pronoy_ | Ivs: you know if you have trouble with the nvidia drivers..i suggest you use envy | 07:49 |
| Madpeter1 | using virtalbox how do I enable it to access all my harddrives? | 07:49 |
| lvs | pronoy: I assume you mean me, no. Nvidia and games/wine compiz worked great in Intrepid | 07:49 |
| briscoelake | geek_: yeah that got me some more info, thanks | 07:49 |
| quizme | what should i choose for my Postfix configuration on my desktop. I want to send email through gmail. is it possible? the choices are no configuration, internet site, internet with smarthost, satellite system, local only...... | 07:49 |
| MarkJones | InCrypto: Theres benchmarks online you could reference I have seen them. | 07:49 |
| p-f | I lost all sound yesterday evening. For some reason, 'aplay -l' now shows two sound devices: Intel [HDA Intel] and.... Intel [HDA Intel]. Also, amarok gives "The audio playback device HDA Intel (SigmaTel STAC9200) does not work. Falling back to HDA Intel S/PDIF (SigmaTel STAC9200)". No sound. Any ideas why? | 07:49 |

| MarkJones | p-f: You on 8.10? | 07:50 |
| lvs | I know the problem is in the xorg.conf file. Maybe if I copy/paste the "mode "1440x900" info from a working xorg.conf file I can try and remedy mine | 07:50 |
| InCrypto | MarkJones, can u plz be kind enough top link me 2 some of em .. also i haer about possible data loss on ext4 .. can tht be vouched for ? | 07:50 |
| briscoelake | geek_: Thanks for the assistance, I'll have to keep an eye on it when it happens again, Thanks again | 07:50 |
| MHz128 | K4k, whatever works, right? | 07:50 |
| K4k | MHz128: I guess | 07:50 |
| pronoy_ | K4k, MHz128: why don' t you add it to your rc.local ? | 07:50 |
| MarkJones | InCrypto: Just google it thats what i did. Cant be too hard to find. | 07:50 |
| Gnea | lvs: oddly enough, the xorg.conf file doesn't even need much editting anymore - usually editting it causes problems nowadays | 07:51 |

| Gnea | lvs: try it and see: sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg | 07:51 |

| gleg | Hey guys, I'm running Gutsy, I don't wish to upgrade, all I want is to download some applications from the Ubuntu repositories. Is there some way to allow my computer to download third party software without upgrading? It seems simple enough. | 07:55 |
| Gnea | ntsasng: configure wine, open it with wine | 07:55 |
| ntsasng | how configure? | 07:55 |
| Gnea | ntsasng: it's in the menu | 07:55 |
| Madpilot | gleg, applications have depencies which change - it can be hard to upgrade 'just one package'... | 07:55 |
| pronoy_ | ntsasng: open with wine is what Gnea meant | 07:55 |
| MarkJones | gleg: Download third party debs anywhere you want just make sure there built for your release version and architecture. | 07:56 |
| Gnea | gleg: just edit your software sources | 07:56 |
| Madpilot | ntsasng, have you read that Wine help page? https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine | 07:56 |
| ntsasng | Mapilot: yes, thanks | 07:56 |
| glitsj16 | Is it possible to install a jaunty / on say /dev/sda3 and keep intrepid / on /dev/sda2, both with a /home on /dev/sda4 ? And if so, can one do this when installing jaunty from live cd ? | 07:56 |
| pronoy_ | ntsasng: or if the issue persists......join #winehq they are always there to help :) | 07:56 |
| gleg | Madpilot: Thanks, thats what I have been attempting. Should I just delete all my gutsy sources from Ubuntu, since they are all now completely unsupported? | 07:56 |
| MarkJones | gleg: If dependencies arent found and installed by ubuntu package managment then youll have to supply them yourself. | 07:56 |
| zhurai | what version of wine are you using.... | 07:57 |
| Madpilot | gleg, you really should upgrade. There are no more security releases for Gutsy | 07:57 |
| MarkJones | Yeah you should be on 8.04 LTS at least I would think. | 07:58 |
| zhurai | <ntsasng> how configure? <-- since I'm bored: "winecfg" | 07:58 |
| Gnea | gleg: isn't gutsy 7.10? | 07:58 |
| zhurai | other than that, I'm not going to say anything other than: look at that page | 07:58 |
| gleg | Madpilot: I know, I'm just so fearful. It was hard enough getting everything working now. It's only been about 4 months since my last huge problem. | 07:58 |
| Gnea | zhurai: heh, that's why i said "it's in the menu" | 07:58 |
| zhurai | o/ | 07:58 |
| MarkJones | 7.10 = gutsy yes | 07:58 |
| gleg | Gnea: Yes, it is. | 07:59 |
| Madpilot | gleg, later versions are a lot slicker than gutsy, trust me. | 07:59 |
| zhurai | <Gnea> zhurai: heh, that's why i said "it's in the menu" <-- atm, I look up and I think "tl;dr" <_< sorry | 07:59 |
| InCrypto | Gnea, will cancelling an upgrade hamper the file system in any way ? | 07:59 |
| Gnea | gleg: yeah, you should really upgrade to 8.04 - you might have a few hiccups, but for the most part, it is extremely stable. I just upgraded a gutsy system (was originally 7.04) last week from 7.10->8.04->8.10->9.04 with no problems at all, whatsoever. | 07:59 |
| zhurai | InCrypto: depends where you halt it | 07:59 |
| lvs | hello again | 07:59 |
| K4k | InCrypto: I wouldn't recommend it, I had complications when I did that once | 08:00 |
| Gnea | InCrypto: cancelling the download or the install phase? | 08:00 |
| zhurai | :x | 08:00 |
| lvs | It worked. But GLX isn't running | 08:00 |
| MarkJones | gleg: 8.04.2 LTS has a few hundred updates all rolled up into the CD. Its probably the minimum that most would recomend.Its the long term supported release. | 08:00 |
| InCrypto | download ...im asssuming the install phase would prompt me to continue ? | 08:00 |
| zhurai | yes | 08:00 |
| zhurai | well | 08:00 |
| Gnea | InCrypto: then you're safe | 08:00 |
| zhurai | more likely then it continues ._. | 08:00 |
| Gnea | InCrypto: it usually jumps into it... | 08:00 |
| InCrypto | Gnea, whoa !!! | 08:00 |
| Madpilot | InCrypto, updates are auto-installed, by default | 08:01 |
| gleg | MarkJones: And how many more months until it's end of life? | 08:01 |
| * InCrypto runs to save all his work | 08:01 | |
| Gnea | lol | 08:01 |
| p-f | If I add an option to /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf, what do I have to do to apply them? Restart alsa? What else? | 08:01 |
| zhurai | >_> | 08:01 |
| MarkJones | gleg: I belive till 2010 sometime. | 08:01 |
| Madpilot | gleg, 8.04 LTS has 18 months or more to run - LTS = Long Term Support | 08:01 |
| Gnea | gleg: you mean years? about 1.5 | 08:01 |
| gleg | Right, thats good to know. Thanks guys. | 08:02 |
| Madpilot | gleg, LTS releases get 3 years of security updates for the desktop version - so until April 2011 | 08:02 |
| gleg | Even better. | 08:02 |
| MarkJones | gleg: Till 10.04 comes out, that will become the new LTS. | 08:02 |
| tindo | when i installed ubuntu 9.04 i didnt install a graphics driver... do i need to install one to get compiz to work? | 08:02 |
| Gnea | tindo: yes. | 08:02 |
| pronoy_ | tindo: if you have a vga then yes | 08:03 |
| Madpilot | tindo, ideally, Ubuntu will have auto-configured that stuff | 08:03 |
| InCrypto | ideallythe GUI update shud have wrked . in which directory will i find the logs for a failed/succesfull distro update ?? /var/log/ ..... ? | 08:03 |
| MarkJones | tindo: Yes you need a driver to support 3d. | 08:03 |
| Gnea | tindo: System->Preferences->Hardware drivers should get you going in the right direction | 08:03 |
| MarkJones | tindo: You have an NVIDIA or ATI? | 08:03 |
| p-f | How do I know what process is using a module? rmmod snd_hda_intel just gives "Module is in use" | 08:03 |
| simplyc | tindu: what card do you have? | 08:03 |
| gleg | I heard around there was a way to install a new release without completely decimating your old one. Something about creating a new /home drive, would this method be preferable? | 08:03 |
| tindo | markjones ati | 08:03 |
| MarkJones | tindo: Gnea gave you good info there. Do that. | 08:04 |
| Madpilot | tindo, which model of graphics card? ati cards are a lot better about auto-configuring these days than they used to be | 08:04 |
| tindo | simplyc i have an ati radion 1550 card | 08:04 |
| ripps | tindo: you can only use the opensource driver | 08:04 |
| Madpilot | gleg, do you have /home on a seperate partition? | 08:04 |
| tindo | ripps thanks | 08:05 |
| simplyc | I still haven't gotten the new driver to work... | 08:05 |
| InCrypto | Gnea, it did prompt me :) | 08:05 |
| BizzaroH8red | once ubuntu finds and connects to my wifi card, how do i disable automatic network scanning? it's wreaking havoc on my attempts at gaming online | 08:05 |
| Gnea | InCrypto: cool :) | 08:05 |
| gleg | Madpilot: No, my entire filesystem is on the same partition. | 08:05 |
| InCrypto | You have to download a total of 833M. This download will take about 3 | 08:05 |
| InCrypto | hours 31 minutes with your connection. | 08:05 |
| InCrypto | Fetching and installing the upgrade can take several hours. Once the | 08:05 |
| InCrypto | download has finished, the process cannot be cancelled. | 08:05 |
| FloodBot3 | InCrypto: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 08:05 |
| pronoy_ | gleg: you can install a new version .....just use a new cd on a new partition | 08:05 |
| InCrypto | oooops | 08:05 |
| MarkJones | Ok peeps Im outa here.Good luck! Have fun! Peace! | 08:06 |
| kadaver_ | how do i do 2 commands on the same command in the shell? | 08:06 |
| Madpilot | InCrypto, did you just start a version upgrade? | 08:06 |
| simplyc | anyone have new ati driver working with 2 monitors? | 08:06 |
| InCrypto | Madpilot, yes | 08:06 |
| p-f | kadaver_: cmd1 && cmd2 or cmd1; cmd2, the former will not continue if cmd1 fails | 08:06 |
| tindo | gnea there are no drivers listed under hardware drivers | 08:06 |
| gleg | pronoy_: Ubuntu has a native drive partitioner, does it not? | 08:06 |
| Gnea | kadaver_: command1 && command2 (executes the second upon the successful completion of the first) | 08:06 |
| pronoy_ | gleg: yes gparted | 08:06 |
| InCrypto | Madpilot, anything i shud be aware of before doing so ? :) | 08:06 |
| Madpilot | gleg, hmm. /home on a seperate partition makes upgrades much less nervewracking. even if the upgrade goes screwy, your own data & settings are safe | 08:06 |
| p-f | kadaver_: there's also & if you want to run them concurrently | 08:07 |
| Madpilot | InCrypto, only that it'll take a while, but you've just learned that :) | 08:07 |
| InCrypto | Madpilot, ahahahaha | 08:07 |
| Gnea | tindo: hrm, ATI is a bit more tricky to get working... if you open a terminal and type this: lspci | grep VGA what do you get? | 08:07 |
| gleg | Madpilot: Is it even more than that... can you still boot into your old /home drive and use your computer, granted on the old release? | 08:07 |
| InCrypto | ohh well since im wrking this weekend ...its worth the effort | 08:07 |
| pronoy_ | Gnea: ATI is the worse to get working !! | 08:07 |
| gleg | pronoy_: Thanks man, I appreciate it. | 08:08 |
| cryingtux | hello | 08:08 |

| Madpilot | gleg, no, when you have /home on a seperate partition from / (the system) the old release will get overwritten by the new one | 08:08 |
| Gnea | !ati | 08:08 |

| Gnea | grrr, my mouse won't work.. *fixes* | 08:08 |
| cryingtux | if "install" icon doesnt work in ubuntu, how can i run it via shell? | 08:08 |
| pronoy_ | Gnea: its always been smooth with nviia...i mean except the old vga s which needed to be written to xorg manually | 08:09 |
| Gnea | pronoy_: yeah, once nvidia wrote something that actually complied with the open source licenses and kept up on bugfixes and whatnot, bam, it's been very solid | 08:09 |
| gleg | Madpilot: Is there a way to do what I was talking about? A way to have more than one release running at one time, to later merge at a more convieniet time? | 08:10 |
| joemac1 | can anyone please tell me if this is a safe command? | 08:10 |

| ubottu | To replicate your packages selection on another machine (or restore it if re-installing), you can type « aptitude --display-format '%p' search '?installed!?automatic' > ~/my-packages », move the file "my-packages" to the other machine, and there type « sudo xargs aptitude --schedule-only install < my-packages ; sudo aptitude install » - See also !automate | 08:23 |

| pronoy_ | anurag89_: its nothing !! .......i guess its taken from Ubuntu CD maybe :) only UbbyCD can answer that | 08:27 |
| UbbyCD | its a Cd with Ubby | 08:28 |
| UbbyCD | or ubby like qualities.. you not know what an ubby is? | 08:28 |
| anurag89_ | UbbyCD: whats ubby ? | 08:28 |
| carpii | william, your machine has no real way of knowing what its internet ip is though | 08:28 |
| grawity | UbbyCD: An abbreviation for Ubuntium? | 08:28 |
| UbbyCD | no | 08:28 |
| joemac1 | Anyhow, I can't print anything since Jaunty, anyone got any ideas? | 08:29 |
| p-f | why does plugging in my laptop's AC adapter make my external hard drive spin up? | 08:30 |
| joemac1 | And my printer config freezes and won't show anything | 08:30 |
| carpii | you have cups running ? | 08:30 |
| joemac1 | yup | 08:30 |
| joemac1 | Err, I think, I have cups anyway | 08:31 |
| simplyc | joemac1: tried removing and installing cups? | 08:31 |
| UbbyCD | wow amarok shows NOTHING when i click play it just says playing | 08:31 |
| usser | william_, w3m whatismyip.com | 08:31 |
| joemac1 | simplyc: will do | 08:31 |
| carpii | UbbyCD, yeah we know. stop whining please | 08:31 |
| carpii | UbbyCD, its probably a more deep rooted sound problem, not amaroks fault necessarily | 08:32 |
| pronoy_ | UbbyCD: as i said...ask again at #kubuntu | 08:32 |
| chetnick | quiet in here this morning? | 08:33 |

| UbbyCD | id slap everyone in here with it | 08:34 |
| carpii | no you go ask in kubuntu | 08:34 |

| UbbyCD | haha | 08:34 |
| carpii | and if noones there, then go back later | 08:34 |
| UbbyCD | ok | 08:34 |
| joemac1 | simplyc: nah, same deal | 08:34 |
| UbbyCD | no ones ever there | 08:34 |
| joemac1 | still no printer config | 08:34 |
| carpii | sure they are | 08:34 |
| usser | william_, actually dont use whatismyip.com they seem to ban for that kind of stuff | 08:34 |
| carpii | and if not, then theres always kubuntu support forums | 08:34 |
| usser | william_, use that for instance ip=`w3m whatismyip.org` | 08:34 |
| UbbyCD | im on ubuntu though | 08:34 |
| usser | william_, then echo $ip | 08:34 |
| chetnick | did anybody notice some difference in archive manager on Jaunty. It act's weird. | 08:34 |
| carpii | william_, or sign up for a dyndns.org account, then you can do dig+short mydomain.dyndns.org | 08:35 |
| UbbyCD | its like going to mythbuntu thats optimized for mythtv to ask why myth tv does not work on ubuntu | 08:35 |
| carpii | Ubby, Ubuntu defaults to gnome, so most ppl here use gnome. | 08:35 |
| carpii | Kubuntu is KDE, and amarok is kde | 08:36 |
| UbbyCD | wow thanks for asking then leaving | 08:36 |
| carpii | yeah bye then | 08:36 |
| william_ | i didnt understand anything just said | 08:36 |
| simplyc | joemac1: what printer? | 08:36 |
| pronoy_ | UbbyCD: you were there ?? i thought you were whining here all the time.......no problem i'll come back | 08:36 |
| UbbyCD | ok | 08:36 |
| Lucas156 | wow lol | 08:37 |

| error404notfound | any help over http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1146964 ? | 08:37 |
| simplyc | joemac1: did you use synaptic (search cups) and do complete removal? | 08:38 |
| william_ | yes | 08:38 |
| ravn1 | hey guys, I'm quite a bit disappointed with the new ubuntu 9.04 - it is way slow as compares to 8.10. Anyone else has experienced this? It is mainly the graphics, but also that things like music stops under some actions like rapid file system usage. | 08:38 |
| usser | william_, well heres one way ip=`w3m whatismyip.org` ; echo $ip | 08:38 |
| carpii | ravn, its the same as always really. I dont install any new version until its had 6 months of udpates | 08:39 |
| joemac1 | simply yup, and then reinstalled. Actually lost a heap on removal (bluez cups etc) that i haven't put back on yet | 08:39 |

| Masood1 | hi all | 08:40 |
| Masood1 | does any1 knows how to install drivers for intel g33 on ubuntu | 08:41 |
| G__81 | i have added medibuntu repo in 9.04 but still i am not able to get acroread in it | 08:41 |
| G__81 | isnt it packaged for 9.04 32 bit ? | 08:41 |
| usser | G__81, why in god's name would you use acroread | 08:41 |
| G__81 | there is a proprietary document which does not open in other viewers | 08:42 |
| G__81 | it just opens only in adobe and hence the reason | 08:42 |
| Madpilot | usser, because as messy as it is, it's still the standard for PDF readers & PDF implementation | 08:42 |
| od_in | hi | 08:43 |
| G__81 | any idea why i am not able to find it ? | 08:43 |
| usser | G__81, you need to enable ubuntu's partner repository | 08:44 |
| G__81 | usser, what repo is that ? isnt it enough if i enable medibuntu alone ? | 08:44 |
| usser | G__81, http://archive.canonical.com/ubuntu jaunty partner | 08:45 |
| usser | G__81, i think it got moved or something | 08:45 |
| Masood1 | does any1 knows how to install drivers for intel g33 on ubuntu | 08:45 |
| simplyc | joemac1: just curious, have you tried shutting down, disconnect printer, boot, remove printer, shutdown, connect, etc.? | 08:45 |
| wanna_learn_more | anyone can tell me what app needed for bonding or loadbalancing | 08:46 |
| pronoy_ | Masood1: you don't need that......everything is opensource here | 08:46 |
| aboSamoor | can you help me fix my gnome after upgrading to Jaunty ? I have problem with the theme I can not use Human. and sometimes gnome-panel is not responsive ! | 08:46 |
| pronoy_ | ' | 08:46 |
| ravn1 | carpii: ok, I'll probably follow you there in the future, for this was not a nice experience. I was really disappointed! | 08:47 |
| usser | G__81, thats weird medibuntu actually says acroread is available from them, but when i try to install with just medibuntu repo its not showing up, i guess they moved it | 08:47 |
| G__81 | yeah thats my problem exactly i too looked at the list but its there but it does not show up | 08:47 |
| joemac1 | simplyc: not in the last hour, but this prob has been since I upgraded, and I have rebooted many times since then. Do you mean since I reinstalled CUPS? I could | 08:48 |
| stealth- | why does the command line ftp command connect but require a password, but browsing it via firefox doesnt? | 08:48 |
| Lucas156 | how can I force quit an unresponsive program through the terminal? Im assuming its through top and if so how do identify which process the program is running under | 08:49 |
| simplyc | joemac1: not just reboot, but shutdown and remove printer physically, boot. remove config printer, etc. | 08:49 |
| Lucas156 | and what is the command in terminal for shut down | 08:49 |
| ripps | aboSamoor: what gtk2-engines do you have installed? "aptitude search gtk2-engine" which one's have an 'i' in the first column | 08:49 |

| enzotib | stealth-: browser use anonymous account | 08:50 |
| stealth- | Lucas156: opps. I mean to the left | 08:50 |
| usser | G__81, oh ok, add non-free to your medibuntu repository line | 08:50 |
| stealth- | enzotib: whats the account called? just anonymous? | 08:50 |
| joemac1 | simplyc: I haven't, but it is a usb printer, and it has been turned off in this time | 08:50 |
| G__81 | usser, whats that called does the website talk about that / | 08:50 |
| G__81 | ? | 08:50 |
| enzotib | stealth-: i cannot remember, i think anonymous/ftp, or ftp/ftp | 08:50 |
| stealth- | enzotib: okay, thanks | 08:51 |
| usser | G__81, well actually scratch that, i have non-free there, and it still doesnt find acroread | 08:51 |
| aboSamoor | ripps: yes, it is installed | 08:51 |
| usser | G__81, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Medibuntu here, free non-free components section | 08:51 |

| Toshibi | Good morning ladies and gents. I'm in a bit of a pickle. I went to try out wicd for some stupid reason or another and it removed gnome-network-manager. I'm in the livecd now as I am using wireless and things have gone bad. real bad. can I just download and install the missing packages? | 09:01 |
| Lucas156 | good question | 09:01 |
| Toshibi | It's like buying your first car. You have to get insurance to drive the car and you have to have insurance to buy the car and you have to have the car to get insurance...it's a Catch 22 on this one. | 09:02 |
| Lucas156 | I dont think you can just install new packages unless you know how to do it through the terminal | 09:03 |
| === eugen_ is now known as Guest35368 | ||
| joemac1 | simplyc: No joy, but I don't think the issue is one of detection. The whole printer configuration freezes with no text, and needs a force quit to kill it. A-la windows. | 09:03 |
| Toshibi | I do know how to do it through the terminal. | 09:03 |
| Lucas156 | you might have to reinstall ubuntu and overwrite what you had | 09:03 |
| guestadmin | I think someone is trying to break into my computer or something, firestarter, then Firefox and opera, very weird stuff, i dont understand | 09:03 |
| zukabuka | ³â³ | 09:03 |
| cspack_ | Toshibi: installing network manager should remove wicd (and vice versa). i've had better luck with wicd myself, network manager never works with my wireless | 09:04 |
| Toshibi | There is no way that I'm reinstalling ubuntu. I just had it the way i liked it and I've never had to do a reinstall to fix my issues before. | 09:04 |
| === netbird is now known as NetBird | ||
| Toshibi | cspack, network manager was working perfectly okay but I was getting some lag on Enemy territory | 09:04 |

| UbbyCD | mp3 support | 09:05 |
| Toshibi | ubby, are you using Kubuntu? | 09:05 |
| TheLivingroom | listen i've spent about two hours trying to self-help on a grub issue | 09:05 |

| UbbyCD | no | 09:05 |

| Toshibi | Okay | 09:05 |
| TheLivingroom | i'm trying to add my XP partition to the grub menu but i always get error 12: cannot find the device | 09:05 |
| Toshibi | Well, have you installed the restricted extras? | 09:05 |
| UbbyCD | lemme see | 09:06 |
| TheLivingroom | the ubuntu installer didnt automagically configurate it | 09:06 |
| UbbyCD | mp3s play in other apps | 09:06 |
| TheLivingroom | any suggestions? | 09:06 |
| Toshibi | Livingroom, did you install Windows first? | 09:06 |
| Lucas156 | yes must install windows first otherwise it will overwrite windows right? | 09:06 |
| TheLivingroom | yes | 09:07 |
| Toshibi | No, it's just that Windows will drop the MBR on top of grub...Windows is selfish | 09:07 |
| chazco | Hi... does anyone know why Totem-gstreamer seems to have issues playing OGMs on 9.04 (the video doesnt usually play, although sometimes it does) but Totem-xine doesnt? | 09:07 |
| MarkJones | Hey guys when it comes to apps like Sound Juicer, and Rhythmbox, where you can edit the gstreamer pipeline that tells the app what codec, bitrate/quality etc, is there any kind of little app that lets you select the settings you want and generates a gstreamer pipeline for you to copy and paste into those apps? Or do most folks just keep a txt file of the different ones or what? | 09:07 |
| nnull | nah install windows first just to avoid having to manaully add a bootloader | 09:07 |
| TheLivingroom | windows first, then ubuntu | 09:07 |
| TheLivingroom | is waht i did | 09:07 |

| TheLivingroom | havent tried. fdisk -l reports it as /dev/sda5 1919 30393 228725406 7 HPFS/NTFS - so should i mount /dev/sda5 /%mountpoint% ? | 09:10 |

| grawity | Brando753: Does it have USB? | 09:15 |
| nnull | Brando753, usb ^^ | 09:15 |
| grawity | Brando753: Or Ethernet? | 09:15 |
| stealth- | Lucas156: to clarify what nnull said, when you have a terminal open and want to learn something about a command, type "man command" to learn more about that command. | 09:15 |
| Brando753 | usb yes ethernet no | 09:15 |
| MarkJones | Brando753:buy a cd drive | 09:15 |

| Livingroom | ok well, thanks anyway. | 09:15 |
| grawity | fikel: Wrong factoid | 09:16 |
| stealth- | silv3r_m00n: Im sure you can google and such. It's not like ive checked every nook and cranny on the internet :P | 09:16 |
| Brando753 | bios does not recognize usb drives | 09:16 |
| koshari | Brando753 use the usb installer | 09:16 |
| Lucas156 | what command? | 09:16 |
| Lucas156 | lol | 09:16 |
| silv3r_m00n | hmm fine | 09:16 |
| Lucas156 | i know what you mean tho | 09:16 |
| fikel | Brando753: get a new computer :) | 09:16 |
| nikoTM | :) | 09:16 |
| stealth- | Lucas156: what are you trying to do? | 09:16 |
| rww | !install | Brando753: there are a bunch of options on the link on this factoid. See if any might work for you :) | 09:16 |
| ubottu | Brando753: there are a bunch of options on the link on this factoid. See if any might work for you :): Ubuntu can be installed in lots of ways.

| Brando753 | i have a cd drive that it use to use but when i reattached the drive it dosent recognize it | 09:16 |
| koshari | Brando753 fikels right, it will run like a dog on a relid like that | 09:16 |
| Toshibi | If the BIOS will not boot from USB you will have to make a boot floppy with some sort of bootloader that will tell it to look for USB drives. It will have to ahve drivers on it for USB and so forth. | 09:17 |
| fikel | why tank you! :D | 09:17 |
| Lucas156 | sorry stealth I was being a little vague | 09:17 |
| nikoTM | Still nobody said what i should do with my modem ( | 09:17 |
| Brando753 | well i have ubuntu on all my comps. i just want to get it on this one to | 09:17 |
| stealth- | !repeat | nikoTM | 09:17 |
| ubottu | nikoTM: 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 | 09:17 |
| Toshibi | nikoTM sorry, I have no experience with it. | 09:17 |
| Lucas156 | I am just trying to learn enough about terminal to be able to navigate around a little better | 09:17 |
| fikel | Brando753: there are people who sell "ubuntu-ready" computers. Get one of of them | 09:17 |
| rww | !terminal | Lucas156 | 09:18 |
| ubottu | Lucas156: The linux terminal or command-line interface is very powerful. Open a terminal via Applications -> Accessories -> Terminal (Gnome) or K-menu -> System -> Konsole (KDE). Guide: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UsingTheTerminal | 09:18 |
| Brando753 | i have ubuntu on like 3 computers, this in an old one i want ot install it on to, i do not want to buy one :P | 09:18 |
| Toshibi | Lucas156: cd is change directory, ls lists the files, for long file names, put in the first 5 or so letters followed by an * | 09:18 |
| stealth- | rww: thank you. That saved me alot of time, I was about to try to explain it all to him by typing :P | 09:18 |
| UbbyCD | ok why would amarok play some mp3s but not others | 09:18 |
| Lucas156 | first 5 letters then asterisk | 09:19 |
| Toshibi | Brando753: Does it have internet connectivity? | 09:19 |
| Lucas156 | ok got it | 09:19 |
| Lucas156 | that will be useful actually | 09:19 |
| Brando753 | it has dial up :D | 09:19 |
| kiko__ | hi | 09:19 |
| Brando753 | i have no dial up service :P | 09:19 |
| Toshibi | Brando753: You need a better option for a net-install. If it's seriously old old old look into Damn Small Linux. I turned a Pentium 2 into an e-book reader with it. | 09:20 |
| grawity | Toshibi: How about USB install? | 09:20 |
| fikel | Brando753: well, why don't you put a new CD drive in it? | 09:20 |
| kiko__ | who want's help? | 09:20 |
| Brando753 | i have a cd drive | 09:20 |
| Brando753 | it wont boot from it | 09:20 |
| Lucas156 | maybe you need to change the boot sequence | 09:20 |
| fikel | Brando753: get a new cheep one | 09:20 |
| UbbyCD | kiko | 09:21 |
| atlef | Brando753: how did you make the cd? | 09:21 |
| Toshibi | grawity: If the BIOS won't boot from USB then there's very few options. Something I did one time was take the hard drive out, hooked it up in a newer computer, installed from there, popped the hard drive out and put it into the old machine. It booted right up. | 09:21 |
| Brando753 | i tried 2 cd drives, this is from 1996 :P | 09:21 |
| UbbyCD | i want help | 09:21 |
| fikel | Brando753: Then when you've installed ubuntu on it, sell the drive on ebay ;) | 09:21 |
| exon | what's up kiko__ | 09:21 |
| Brando753 | the cd is an official ubuntu cd from Ship.it | 09:21 |
| UbbyCD | amarok only plays certain mp3s | 09:21 |
| atlef | ok | 09:21 |
| Toshibi | UbbyCD: Did you happen to purchase the MP3's from itunes or some other evil thing that puts DRM all in their music? | 09:22 |
| fikel | Brando753: whats the model of computer your trying to install ubuntu on? | 09:22 |
| Lucas156 | I have that problem too | 09:22 |
| mrglinux1 | I have lyric of music . is possible to move lyric when music is play in osd ? or with software or something like that? it will be very fantastic | 09:22 |
| nztal | Brando753, did you go into your bios, and tell your computer, to boot from your cd ? often it wont automatically do that, unless you tell it to. | 09:22 |
| Brando753 | i did :P | 09:23 |
| Lucas156 | when I save files if it saves as a different file type then what the music player uses then the music player wont run it unless it pulls up a codec or something | 09:23 |
| ripps | mrglinux1: maybe lyricue? | 09:23 |
| Toshibi | mrglinux: There are programs that let you make an OSD. You just have to really dig in, maybe write up a perl or python script, and pray to the gods of all that is programming. I tried it before. | 09:23 |
| fikel | Brando753: find out the model of computer your using | 09:23 |
| Lucas156 | on my mp3 player it doesn't support the file that my music player saves the files as | 09:23 |
| exon | convert it Lucas156 | 09:24 |
| Bodhan | hi guys | 09:24 |
| Lucas156 | how exon | 09:24 |
| Toshibi | Lucas156: May I suggest OGG | 09:24 |
| Brando753 | its a DELL DIMENSION D266 | 09:24 |
| fikel | !hi Bodhan | 09:24 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about hi Bodhan | 09:24 |
| Bodhan | I'm a bit new to Ubuntu, just finding my way around | 09:24 |
| fikel | !hi |Bodhan | 09:24 |
| ubottu | Bodhan: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu! | 09:24 |
| Lucas156 | is OGG a program? | 09:25 |
| exon | once on your computer there are plenty of programs to convert a sound | 09:25 |
| fikel | Bodhan: think it's fairly easy so far? | 09:25 |
| Lucas156 | o | 09:25 |
| exon | noopee that's a codec | 09:25 |
| fikel | oh sorry there Brando753 | 09:25 |
| Bodhan | Yea, some of it. Its the same as windows just different ways of doing stuff | 09:25 |
| fikel | one min | 09:25 |
| Lucas156 | o can I get it from synaptic package manager? | 09:25 |
| Brando753 | ? | 09:25 |
| exon | as mp3 or ogg there are several | 09:26 |
| Bodhan | Like installing stuff, just clicking it off a list is great | 09:26 |
| Toshibi | Lucas, OGG is the standard format for music in most free systems | 09:26 |
| Madpilot | Lucas156, OGG files are music or video files - it's a similar format to mp3 | 09:26 |
| Toshibi | Okay | 09:26 |
| exon | so you want ogg converted to mp3 | 09:26 |
| Lucas156 | when I am saving something can I do saveas and change how it saves it or something? | 09:26 |
| Lucas156 | o yeah | 09:27 |
| Lucas156 | thats right exon | 09:27 |
| Toshibi | I ahve my packages downloaded. I'm going to see if my Idea of the Week(TM) works. | 09:27 |
| fikel | Brando753: k, is it an XPS model? | 09:27 |
| Madpilot | ubottu, mp3 | Lucas156 | 09:27 |
| ubottu | Lucas156: For multimedia issues, this page has useful information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats - See also https://help.ubuntu.com/9.04/musicvideophotos/C/video.html - But please use free formats if you can: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeFormats | 09:27 |
| Lucas156 | because thats what it saves them as | 09:27 |
| Toshibi | I'll be back one way or another | 09:27 |
| Lucas156 | ogg files | 09:27 |
| Lucas156 | this isn't a free format? | 09:27 |
| exon | did you already google after it ? | 09:27 |
| Brando753 | yes | 09:28 |
| Brando753 | its a DELL DIMENSION D266 | 09:28 |
| Brando753 | xps | 09:28 |
| Madpilot | Lucas156, ogg is a Free format. mp3 isn't. that's why Linux apps usually use ogg as default | 09:28 |
| Madpilot | Lucas156, that first URL in ubottu's line above is the best one to start with | 09:29 |
| Lucas156 | O I see | 09:29 |
| fikel | k | 09:29 |
| Madpilot | you can get mp3 format out of the CD ripper apps fairly easily | 09:29 |
| exon | i think you can also save files in mp3 format if you convert a cd into a packed sound with standard ubuntu | 09:30 |
| fikel | Brando753: there has been no record of that happening before, I'd suggest contacting Dell, not here | 09:30 |
| Brando753 | ;( | 09:30 |
| Brando753 | *cry* | 09:30 |
| Madpilot | exon, that's what I meant - you need to install the mp3 codecs & such, though | 09:31 |
| fikel | Brando753: because They would be able to tell you whats wrong | 09:31 |
| Brando753 | hey what countries do you have to pay for the mp3 codecs? | 09:31 |
| joemac1 | Can anyone help, my printer configuration freezes and won't go, and my printing doesn't work, ever since "the upgrade" | 09:32 |
| Toshibi | Well, that was easy | 09:32 |

| joemac1 | Toshibi: but the solution doesn't work | 09:40 |
| UbbyCD | hey its like amarok isnt properly recognising mp3 files in jaunty | 09:40 |
| UbbyCD | i just installed restricted extras no go | 09:40 |
| corigo1 | Is there a way to find out which application is running a MySQL daemon, before I go and kill it? | 09:40 |
| mangel | hey | 09:40 |
| Toshibi | UbbyCD: Are all mp3's not working? | 09:40 |
| joemac1 | Toshibi: it is freezing up with out a printer conected | 09:40 |
| UbbyCD | it says its playing the mp3s | 09:40 |
| UbbyCD | but it does nothing | 09:40 |
| Sunny | I cann't follow you ,so I think personal speak will be better. | 09:40 |
| UbbyCD | it does not show progress and has no sound | 09:41 |
| UbbyCD | uhh i think a couple did play | 09:41 |
| UbbyCD | but they were all acapella files | 09:41 |
| redpearl | where is the default location of my bookmark? | 09:41 |
| UbbyCD | they may have not even been mp3s | 09:41 |
| redpearl | my os crashed, and i can't start firefox | 09:41 |
| redpearl | this is firefox 3.0.9 | 09:41 |
| Lucas156 | what does this mean You have 1 broken package on your system! | 09:41 |
| Lucas156 | Use the "Broken" filter to locate it. | 09:41 |
| joemac1 | Toshibi: and I had it working fine in intrepid | 09:41 |
| Toshibi | joemac1: did you check my link? | 09:42 |
| Lucas156 | thats what opened when I pulled up synaptics package manager | 09:42 |

| joemac1 | Toshibi: I am there now | 09:42 |
| Toshibi | joemac1: Okay, give that a shot. | 09:42 |
| Toshibi | joemac1: I'll be here for a while. Lots of hungry questions. | 09:42 |
| === weezil is now known as tue | ||
| UbbyCD | yeh it was only a few mp3s that it would play | 09:42 |
| livingroom | THIS is why i dont f*cking use linux, it's such bollocks that i cant dual boot with a simple setup! | 09:43 |
| Toshibi | UbbyCD: Were they MP3's or other files? | 09:43 |
| UbbyCD | they were mp3s | 09:43 |
| Lucas156 | its not linux its the operator | 09:43 |
| livingroom | ubuntu is supposed to figure this @#$& out for me, why didnt it autodetect? now i get to repartition everything! THANKS UBUNTU | 09:43 |
| Toshibi | livingroom: Put your windows CD in and do a fixmbr | 09:43 |
| UbbyCD | but 95 percent of my mp3s wont play | 09:43 |
| Toshibi | livingroom: You will then be able to boot into Windows. | 09:43 |
| redpearl | grawity, oh my god, it's in some weird format | 09:43 |
| livingroom | i dont want to boot primarily into windows, or i'dve done that 5 hours ago. i want dual booting | 09:44 |
| grawity | redpearl: It's SQLite, not that weird | 09:44 |
| redpearl | grawity, how can import it in a new firefox, with total different user name and profile | 09:44 |
| nztal | livingroom, this was not ubuntu's doing | 09:44 |
| UbbyCD | ubuntu does no wrong | 09:44 |
| livingroom | indeed, nztal. it was supposed to detect my windows partition and add it to grub, but it did not | 09:44 |
| tuntun | how do I find the default IP address of a computer (before it has received DHCP)? | 09:44 |
| Lucas156 | exactly | 09:44 |
| redpearl | grawity, yes. not readable as text | 09:45 |
| Toshibi | livingroom: I understand that. Once you have fixed your MBR though, you at least have a jumping off point. First, go into msconfig in Windows and see how many boot entries you have. If more than one, remove one. Then, let Ubuntu try it's thing. | 09:45 |
| grawity | redpearl: To browse, sqlite3 places.sqlite | 09:45 |
| grawity | redpearl: And to copy to the new profile ... simply copy the file. | 09:45 |
| livingroom | this is maddening. | 09:46 |
| redpearl | grawity, ok, installing sqlite3 now. | 09:46 |
| Toshibi | tuntun: before it has an IP address it's the loopback which is 127.0.0.1 or it's a non-routing IP.... | 09:46 |
| livingroom | in 1998 i first installed linux: redhat 5.2. AND THIS SAME SHIT was going on. it's impossible to use linux coming from a windows world. why hasnt anyone addressed this? | 09:46 |
| redpearl | grawity, just copy and dump into new ~/.mozilla directory? | 09:46 |
| Toshibi | livingroom: Just because you've had a bad experience doesn't mean everyone does. I came from Windows with 0 problems 4 years ago. | 09:47 |
| grawity | redpearl: You could just copy the entire ~/.mozilla actually ... | 09:47 |
| livingroom | i could reply that just because you had a good experience, doesnt mean the majority of switchers do. | 09:47 |
| redpearl | grawity, ok. but my profile name is different.... | 09:47 |
| tuntun | <Toshibi> how do I use VNC between two ubuntu computers without a dhcp server? | 09:47 |
| grawity | redpearl: Shouldn't matter | 09:47 |
| Toshibi | <tuntun> You have to know the static IP addresses of both computers. You would have both of those set up and the router/switch before hand. | 09:48 |
| Lucas156 | troll | 09:48 |
| redpearl | grawity, ok. thx. | 09:48 |

| thrillERboy | if alternate iso can install both standalone ubuntu and can update the older ubuntu then why the desktop-9.04-i386.iso | 10:49 |
| vix | youtube hangs my browser | 10:49 |
| marquesito | ok | 10:49 |
| vix | im using Swfdec 0.8.2 | 10:50 |
| marquesito | thanks | 10:50 |
| vix | is there a better alternative | 10:50 |
| ripps | thrillERboy: desktop cd is a livecd so people can test ubuntu without installing anything | 10:50 |
| mythman | ok | 10:50 |
| djiezes | thrillERboy: the desktop iso has a live cd & graphical installer | 10:50 |
| lastman | vix, use the adope player, deinsstall swfdec | 10:50 |
| betita_elfica | when i do the partiton for swap is logical or primary? | 10:51 |
| thrillERboy | so in alternate iso, I won't see the same installer, which I used to install in 8.10 | 10:51 |
| djiezes | thrillERboy: alternate cd also has a wider hardware support | 10:51 |
| Billynkid1 | thrillERboy: No | 10:51 |
| thrillERboy | :/ what if i get lost? | 10:51 |
| Billynkid1 | thrillERboy: but it's as easy. | 10:52 |
| ripps | vix: adobe > gnash > swfdec | 10:52 |
| vix | i wanted to avoid adobe | 10:52 |
| vix | cuz its not truely open source | 10:52 |
| vix | :( | 10:52 |
| Billynkid1 | thrillERboy: Ever installed Debian? | 10:52 |
| thrillERboy | okie.... downloading alternate cd now.... will check out later | 10:52 |
| thrillERboy | nope.... ubuntu is my first linux distro | 10:52 |
| vix | how do i remove swf | 10:52 |
| ripps | vix: gnash is better than swfdec, but there is no decent free flash | 10:53 |
| ruanl | halt：unable to iterate IDE devices: No such files or directory why? how to work it out | 10:53 |
| djiezes | ripps: is gnash less cpu intensive? | 10:53 |
| ripps | djiezes: not sure | 10:53 |
| Billynkid1 | thrillERboy: Well congrats for that ;-) But I think you'll be OK. What HW you installing on? | 10:53 |

| Billynkid1 | thrillERboy: GIMP not an option? ;-) | 11:05 |
| Guest96694 | IS jockey-gtk internet dependant? | 11:05 |
| thrillERboy | yes, I wan't to install inside wubi this time, but after I get everything inside xp, I will make ubuntu my main os | 11:05 |
| hxl | why is my xorg take so much source of cpu, any help? | 11:05 |
| thrillERboy | I'm totally lost inside gimp | 11:05 |
| gordonjcp | thrillERboy: easy to use isn't the same as easy to learn ;-) | 11:06 |
| VladNistor | (10:58:29) ripps: hxl: that's in the r700 series, i believe. try fglrx or radeonhd | 11:06 |
| thrillERboy | I learned photoshop way too much, I think I will need almost same time to learn gimp.... Which I don't want now | 11:06 |
| thrillERboy | I just want to use photoshop productively | 11:07 |
| marquesito | what's .po archives for? | 11:07 |
| myself_ | prova | 11:08 |
| myself_ | c'è nessuno? | 11:08 |
| thrillERboy | and also, why can't I find installers for ubuntu, It seems like impossible to use ubuntu without internet | 11:08 |
| Guest96694 | thrileboy: You could try WINE In APPS=>Add/remove programs | 11:08 |
| robin0800 | thrillERboy: there is a program that makes kimp mpor like photoshop same menu's etc | 11:08 |
| robin0800 | thrillERboy: Gimp more | 11:09 |
| Billynkid1 | thrillERboy: ubuntu uses apt-get package management | 11:09 |
| daver89 | Morning all. I am creating a script to run but on line of code requires a password. is there a way i can auto enter this through the .sh file? | 11:09 |
| thrillERboy | robin0800, I've read the blog post, to make gimp like photoshop, but, I don't know... I can't get over photoshop | 11:09 |
| Billynkid1 | thrillERboy: so .deb files | 11:09 |
| Guest96694 | IS jockey-gtk internet dependant? | 11:10 |
| thrillERboy | .deb files are lot easier, but its not available for every needs | 11:10 |
| daver89 | thrillERboy: nothing beats photoshop. there's a reason it is the industry standard | 11:10 |
| Billynkid1 | thrillERboy: plus do not automatically do dependency matching unless you use synatic or apt-get | 11:10 |
| robin0800 | daver89: Not to mention the price | 11:11 |
| thrillERboy | what is dependency matching :D sorry for sounding like total n00b | 11:11 |
| daver89 | robin0800: ye, it is pricey but lets face it, only businesses actually buy it. everyone else has other means of getting it. | 11:13 |
| Billynkid1 | thrillERboy: Say you want to install GIMP, you need a few other packages and libraries. | 11:13 |
| thrillERboy | I don't know if I'm right or not, but, I like reading internet and getting things done, through commands and regedit in windows, but even I hate to install programs by typing, IMAO opinion installation should be somewhat like next, next, next, finish. | 11:13 |
| back1step | How I can install ubuntu from the harddrive | 11:13 |
| homeskill | is there an advantage to using samba to serve up a network drive, rather than ssh/sftp? | 11:13 |
| daver89 | can you run photoshop through wine? | 11:13 |
| thrillERboy | nope not CS3 | 11:13 |
| Guest96694 | daver89: Yes. | 11:13 |
| Guest96694 | If you use wine you will be able to use photoshop | 11:14 |
| Billynkid1 | thrillERboy: So you like sudo apt-get install gimp. Then ;-) | 11:14 |
| Guest96694 | http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version&iId=6584 | 11:14 |
| thrillERboy | yea... I use sudo apt-get | 11:14 |
| t3ch | photoshop cs2 works with wine for cs3 i think it not working yet or ? | 11:15 |
| Severian | homeskill, yes. The samba share can easily be mounted by any linux, windows or mac machine in your network. For some people, that is an advantage. | 11:15 |
| thrillERboy | But, we want everybody to use a OS. Even grandpas and grandmas. A graphical installer may help it. | 11:15 |
| t3ch | but gimp is the right choise for designing | 11:15 |
| t3ch | you dont need to install notingh | 11:15 |
| homeskill | Severian cant you mount sftp drives like that? ie the program 'sftpdrive' | 11:16 |
| Guest96694 | You can use a gui to install gimp as with everything | 11:16 |
| t3ch | just type what Billynkid1 says | 11:16 |
| Guest96694 | Because terminal is too hard. | 11:16 |
| t3ch | lol | 11:16 |
| homeskill | or can i at least do samba over ssh, or some way to make samba encrypted | 11:16 |
| t3ch | :g | 11:16 |
| Leszczoman | Well, I wanted to use Gimp, but it's too hard for me :/ | 11:16 |
| Billynkid1 | thrillERboy: then stick to synaptic | 11:16 |
| gordonjcp | thrillERboy: most grandpas and grandmas don't need any kind of installer, and in fact are better off without it | 11:16 |
| gordonjcp | Guest96694: for you, possibly | 11:16 |
| Leszczoman | And in the Internet there aren't many good tutorials | 11:16 |
| gordonjcp | Guest96694: for me, GUI is too hard | 11:16 |
| Guest96694 | I can do stuff with terminal but try to avoid | 11:17 |
| gordonjcp | Leszczoman: like I said, easy to use isn't the same as easy to learn | 11:17 |
| homeskill | gimp is pretty easy if you understand general image editing concepts like layers and masks, so if you know them in photoshop you can learn them in gimp on your own | 11:17 |
| thrillERboy | apt-get and synaptic both needs internet connection isn't it? | 11:17 |
| mudassar | Who has developed Chess in ubuntu ? | 11:17 |
| Guest96694 | Anyway is jockey-gtk dependant on the interent? | 11:17 |
| Severian | homeskill, I have never heard of that program. If it works well and is included with all 3 operating systems, then maybe yes. I used to have Windows and Mac on my network, but don't anymore. So, I can't check. | 11:17 |
| Billynkid1 | thrillERboy: indeed | 11:17 |
| homeskill | ok | 11:17 |
| Severian | homeskill, I really doubt that the program is built into Windows, though. | 11:17 |
| homeskill | it's not | 11:18 |
| gordonjcp | Guest96694: probably not, I'd imagine it wants to download drivers from *somewhere* | 11:18 |
| Guest96694 | Where does it's drivers from? | 11:18 |
| Guest96694 | I have wnated to know for long time. | 11:18 |
| thrillERboy | an offline installer can always come in handy. If I reinstall a OS say in 10 systems, I would like to install it with a disk than downloading it everytime | 11:19 |
| Billynkid1 | thrillERboy: a fact i know well on my gprs 256kbps connection | 11:19 |
| mudassar | who has developed chess in ubuntu ? | 11:19 |
| thrillERboy | install applications* | 11:19 |
| Billynkid1 | thrillERboy: look up apt-cacher | 11:19 |
| Severian | homeskill, samba is often the fastest transfer between linux systems for me. The samba team have really worked on that. They have to slow down a lot when talking to a Windows system. | 11:19 |
| gordonjcp | thrillERboy: when you install a package, the deb is usually cached somewhere | 11:19 |
| fez | oh man | 11:20 |
| Guest96694 | thrillERboy: you can download .deb from getdeb.net an dput on flash drive or cd. | 11:20 |
| Guest96694 | Where does jockey-gtk get it's driver from? | 11:21 |
| thrillERboy | yeah.... will look apt-cacher...... me got to go now..... | 11:21 |
| thrillERboy | thanks for all the infos :) | 11:22 |
| fez | i got back from one HELL of a party | 11:23 |
| Severian | homeskill, if sftpdrive works for you, then use it. A nice thing about Linux is that there are often multiple solutions. | 11:23 |
| Billynkid1 | thrillERboy: welcome | 11:24 |

| Severian | LukaszJ, Is there any real problem you were having? | 11:32 |

| Insomnia1ity | Hi! The gnome-do plugins list is empty on Jaunty - is this a known issue? | 11:33 |
| Severian | Dave, abit under 4 gig for me. | 11:33 |
| AussieGuy | how big would a 25 gigabyte apache2 access_log be once compressed with say...bzip2? | 11:33 |
| DaveWM | ah, k | 11:33 |
| DaveWM | just wondering, i installed the netbook remix off the alternate cd, and it still has full desktop mode too of course | 11:34 |
| LukaszJ | Insomnia1ity: Maybe ckeck on http:launchpad.net | 11:34 |
| DaveWM | i've added alot of packages and its still sitting at 3.2gb | 11:34 |
| Severian | AussieGuy, That depends on the details in the log. I have seen them compress 10 to 1, but 5 or 6 to 1 is more common. | 11:34 |
| DaveWM | which is pretty sweet | 11:34 |
| hxl | the ati has Open-Source driver? | 11:35 |
| DaveWM | makes me really wonder what those other netbook distributions have in them that make them such a squeeze | 11:35 |

| penthief | Hi. In the gnuplot interpreter, pressing <C>-<Left> outputs ";5D" instead of jumping a work. I've just compiled gnuplot with "--with-readline=gnu" and it works fine. Does this mean that it's a problem with Ubuntu. How can I fix it? | 11:35 |
| DaveWM | its nice | 11:35 |
| hxl | mine is ati. how can i find a driver that match my ubuntu? | 11:35 |
| penthief | s/work/word | 11:35 |
| DaveWM | i'm not even using it that way though | 11:35 |
| DaveWM | changed it to desktop mode | 11:35 |
| LukaszJ | Severian: That's my problem | 11:36 |
| DaveWM | and i don't see that its missing anything the desktop version would have | 11:36 |
| DaveWM | although i havent installed a jaunty desktop yet, so i dunno | 11:36 |

| hxl | thank u | 11:39 |
| Severian | LukaszJ, I understand that. I don't know what to do about it. My main systems all use Intel video from the motherboard. I have one system with an older ATI, but it is not setup at the moment. I knew EXA sounded familiar, but I did not place it at first. | 11:39 |
| LukaszJ | hxl: You find all the logs in /var/log | 11:40 |
| DaveWM | what's some good eye candy i can add to my desktop environment that's not there by default? | 11:40 |
| Severian | LukaszJ, I was happy with the open source ATI drivers on that system. But, if you are having problem, I would probably suggest trying the proprietary drivers. | 11:41 |
| DaveWM | i'm so amazed by how this is performing on this netbook, i wanna spice it up now | 11:41 |
| Severian | DaveWM, Oregano is good. | 11:41 |
| DaveWM | ok, you realize that i was about to look up oregano on the repo's | 11:41 |
| fez | ? | 11:41 |
| DaveWM | don't do me like that | 11:41 |
| DaveWM | heh | 11:41 |
| fez | oergano is OK but weed is better | 11:42 |
| Severian | I setup a ASUS netbook for a friend. I used Jaunty and it is quite nice. | 11:42 |
| robin0800 | DaveWM: KDE is good | 11:42 |
| fez | yes | 11:42 |
| fez | KDE is great but Kubuntu is mediocre (IMHO) | 11:42 |
| DaveWM | hmm | 11:42 |
| fez | I also happen to believe KDE3 is better than KDE4 | 11:42 |
| aprilhare | hey | 11:42 |
| LukaszJ | Severian: Well, that could be a try for me. But, do any exist? I know for Hardy some proprietary drivers has been replaced by the Original ATI driver. At least, for some chipsets, I guess. | 11:42 |
| DaveWM | been a while since i checked out kde | 11:42 |
| DaveWM | i heard kde 4 is sexy | 11:43 |
| DaveWM | is it 4? i think it is | 11:43 |
| chaosphere | danke dir auch | 11:43 |
| robin0800 | fez: Install ubuntu first then add kde | 11:43 |
| Severian | LukaszJ, I don't know. The 9700 is pretty new, isnt it? | 11:43 |
| LukaszJ | Hymnosis: Maybe "aMSn" ? | 11:43 |
| fez | sexy perhaps but super customizable and memory efficient like the olden days, not so much | 11:43 |
| grawity | KDE 4.2 is nice. But 4.1 and older is not to be used without apropriate toxic suits. | 11:43 |
| DaveWM | gotcha | 11:43 |
| DaveWM | i'll check it out | 11:43 |
| fez | robin0800, I've done that; basically it is the same as installing kubuntu | 11:44 |
| hxl | robin0800: wil it be better if i update my ati driver? | 11:44 |
| fez | robin, for example i use Kate under GNOME a lot | 11:44 |
| otm24 | I'm having problems with ubuntu crashing when I connect to a wireless network. It freezes about 1/3 times that I connect. ctrl+alt+backspace (i enabled this since i'm using 9.04) and ctrl+alt+F1 wont do anything, also the LED's are still lit when it has frozen...can anyone help? | 11:44 |
| Severian | KDE 4.2 looks really nice. It just is not very usable. KDE 3.5 is pretty usable, but ugly. So, I use GNOME for most machines. | 11:44 |
| LukaszJ | Severian: Well, no. It's actually one of the olders :) | 11:44 |
| fez | hxl, everything will be better after you upgrade your ATI driver | 11:44 |
| fez | I disagree with the assertion that KDE3.5 is ugly | 11:44 |
| fez | perhaps by default it is | 11:45 |
| fez | but that's why it's so darn customizable | 11:45 |
| robin0800 | fez: Yes I only use KDE for things Gnome can't do | 11:45 |
| DaveWM | why's 4.2 not very usable? | 11:45 |
| grawity | fez: As a Gnome user, I think KDE 3.5 is quite nice. | 11:45 |

| super_hacker | hi to all | 11:46 |
| Leszczoman | hi | 11:46 |
| fez | hxl, visit ati.com or enable "use proprietary drivers" from administration | 11:46 |
| robin0800 | DaveWM: Well do try KDE then | 11:46 |
| Severian | DaveWM, some of the KDE utioities have not been ported to the KDE 4 series yet. They will get there, and each release has been an improvement. | 11:46 |
| somaly | Will installing jaunty with full disk encryption via the alternate installer cause it to wear out? | 11:46 |
| Severian | utioities -> utilities | 11:46 |
| fez | hxl, then check for a package that is like, "xserver-xorg-ati-radeon" or something like that (presuming you have a radeon) | 11:46 |

| fez | Yeah, I don't think default Gnome is any less ugly than default KDE | 11:47 |
| Severian | somaly, No, the CD will not get any more wear than in a normal install. | 11:47 |
| DaveWM | also, i don't want xchat-gnome, but i wanna know, is there some way i can make the nicklist autohide in regular xchat? | 11:47 |

| super_hacker | Okay, I have one problem with ubuntu server 9.04, exactly with Postfix Mail Server | 11:48 |
| Severian | The hard disk does not really get much more wear either. The CPU gets most of the extra burden. | 11:48 |
| fez | hxl, chmod +x that file | 11:48 |
| LukaszJ | Severian: I'll try to ask on #xorg or #ati. Thank you | 11:48 |

| Stijn | livingdaylight: you could try to use the bootmenu . Every modern bios has one. Try hitting F12 on biosboot. | 12:16 |

| raylu | harmz: you may want to look towards debian | 12:16 |
| super_hacker | ooops sorry | 12:16 |
| livingdaylight | Stijn, and then opting for usb, i think i tried that | 12:16 |
| super_hacker | omg the internet connection | 12:16 |
| super_hacker | made one problem | 12:16 |
| harmz | raylu what does that mean | 12:16 |
| gueroh | Hello everyone | 12:17 |
| raylu | harmz: iirc, ubuntu only supports i386 and amd64. debian supports a few others, including ppc | 12:17 |
| Holymen | do you know ehat motherboard do you have? | 12:17 |
| harmz | thanks | 12:17 |
| n_nick | there is a way to format from the terminal also | 12:17 |
| Stijn | livingdaylight: Then your usb is not bootable i think. Whats on it? | 12:17 |
| raylu | harmz: and ubuntu is based on debian, so a lot of things will be the same | 12:17 |
| n_nick | if i am not mistaken | 12:17 |
| n_nick | gparted not able to installa | 12:17 |
| super_hacker | this is the ifconfig: http://vmetni.com/7bihi2-2998?raw | 12:17 |
| livingdaylight | Stijn, ubuntu | 12:17 |
| Severian | PPC support was dropped a couple of years ago. Maybe 3 year. | 12:17 |
| Holymen | i'm looking for a video thumbail maker prog.any recommendations? | 12:18 |
| raylu | n_nick: fdisk allows you to manage your partition table, parted,mkfs allows you to format | 12:18 |
| === fridrik is now known as pyth | ||
| n_nick | yes mkfs is what i am interested | 12:18 |
| n_nick | i just want to format my Pen drive | 12:18 |
| n_nick | thats all | 12:18 |
| Pudgy | still running Debian PPC.. works like a dream ;) | 12:18 |
| raylu | n_nick: is there already a partition set up? | 12:18 |
| n_nick | i wanted gparted also .. but sudo aptitude install gparted not working | 12:19 |
| n_nick | yes | 12:19 |
| livingdaylight | Stijn, someone just told me that they have never been able to get their pc to boot from usb either, so, i'm not the only one at least. Also that usb's need to be around the 1gb size and my usb is 8gb | 12:19 |
| raylu | n_nick: what do you want to format it as? | 12:19 |
| n_nick | as it is .. FAT32 | 12:19 |
| Severian | Stijn, have you looked at: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=376283 | 12:19 |
| raylu | n_nick: mkfs.vfat /dev/sdb1 | 12:19 |

| Jack8899 | I was downloading some language files. It took too long so I closed the window, but it seems its still loading in background, because my network is overused. How can i stop it? | 12:20 |
| raylu | Jack8899: downloading with what? | 12:20 |
| acron17 | can someone give me a hint how to get the configure line for a binary package in ubuntu? | 12:20 |
| linux | what? | 12:20 |
| linux | for what? | 12:20 |
| raylu | acron17: you could try asking in #ubuntu-motu | 12:20 |
| Stijn | Severian: Omg thanks! Just what i neded! | 12:20 |
| linux | yell, | 12:20 |
| Jack8899 | raylu: with the system settings -> Regional & Language | 12:20 |
| linux | well | 12:20 |
| raylu | acron17: but it may show up somewhere in the files downloaded from "apt-get source package" | 12:20 |
| aprilhare | i was going to say reactos is looking good - then i fired up firefox and found the text is borked :) | 12:21 |
| aprilhare | heh | 12:21 |
| acron17 | raylu: thanks i'll ask there | 12:21 |
| raylu | Jack8899: run "top" in a terminal; is it obvious what is downloading stuff? | 12:21 |
| Jack8899 | raylu: I wanted to install my language, but before that it asked me to update some language stuf... | 12:21 |
| acron17 | raylu: right. i'm search already there but with no luck till now... | 12:21 |
| raylu | aprilhare: reactos makes little sense to me | 12:21 |
| raylu | acron17: oh :( | 12:21 |
| n_nick | raylu: my pendrive is in /media as disk.. so i tried mkfs.vfat /media/disk it didnt work .. | 12:22 |
| raylu | n_nick: no, /media/disk is the mount point of that partition | 12:22 |
| aprilhare | raylu: actually it makes lots of sense to me. i have a sony reader and the official drivers aren't available for linux. they should work great with reactos though. | 12:22 |
| raylu | n_nick: if you type "mount", it will show you what device is mounted at that mountpoint | 12:22 |
| raylu | n_nick: you want to mkfs on that. it should be in /dev | 12:22 |
| n_nick | ohh | 12:22 |
| n_nick | ok | 12:22 |
| raylu | aprilhare: but then why not just get windows? | 12:23 |
| aprilhare | raylu: reactos is free :) | 12:23 |
| Jack8899 | raylu: no, its not obvious. it doesnt show the network activity there. | 12:23 |
| raylu | aprilhare: which free do you care about? | 12:23 |
| aprilhare | raylu: free as in open source and free as in beer | 12:23 |
| raylu | Jack8899: but whatever's downloading it should be using cpu too, shouldn't it? | 12:23 |
| aprilhare | raylu: six of one or half a dozen of the other | 12:24 |
| raylu | aprilhare: i'm not sure what the benefits of oss software would be if it's just emulating windows | 12:24 |
| raylu | aprilhare: heh | 12:24 |
| aprilhare | raylu: i just told you one. | 12:24 |
| aprilhare | driver support (direct) | 12:24 |
| raylu | Jack8899: killall gnome-language-selection | 12:25 |
| raylu | er... | 12:25 |
| raylu | Jack8899: killall gnome-language-selector | 12:25 |
| aprilhare | another is that it has a tiny footprint compared to m$ and is infinitely more snappy | 12:25 |
| Jack8899 | raylu: well, there is xrog, quassel, ksysguard, systemsettings, kosoftirq (sometimes) | 12:25 |
| Jack8899 | raylu: well, actually i use kde | 12:25 |

| Jack8899 | raylu: i used pgrep -l language, but it only gave me back "language-sel" | 12:27 |
| n_nick | i also tried sudo aptitude install gparted | 12:27 |
| raylu | Jack8899: so use the other to get the full name. or just "kill 12345" where 12345 is the pid that appeared before language-sel | 12:28 |
| penthief | super_hacker: Yeah, recently I heard of someone having to contact their ISP to get their IP address whitelisted so that they could connect to the ISP's mail server. Or something. I guess this is what you will have to do. | 12:28 |
| raylu | n_nick: have you run apt-get/aptitude update recently? | 12:28 |

| gluonman | I put my external hard drive into a Mac to copy a video over, but the Mac has no write permissions. I can't reset the permissions on the Mac, and for some reason I cannot change the permissions on my Ubuntu box. What should I do? | 12:53 |
| whiter | hello | 12:53 |
| Jack8899 | raylu: done | 12:53 |
| whiter | how can i get desktop icons | 12:53 |
| whiter | like the trash | 12:54 |
| whiter | the home folder, etc | 12:54 |
| raylu | Jack8899: so, does it work now? | 12:54 |
| Severian | afancy, you are asking a lot. The upgrade is a nice improvement. There are some features that are frustrating. It depends on what you have. | 12:54 |
| raylu | !icons | 12:54 |
| ubottu | Want to see volume/trash icons on the desktop? Go to /apps/nautilus/desktop in gconf-editor (GNOME) or go to http://kudos.berlios.de/kf/kisimlar/tipsntrix.html#showtrash (KDE) | 12:54 |
| topgun553 | I installed ubuntu side by side after windows, but it says it only has 161 MB free space, what should I do? | 12:54 |
| afancy | OK | 12:54 |
| whiter | thanks | 12:54 |
| whiter | exit | 12:54 |

| Severian | afancy, I have upgraded 6 machines and not had any big problems. I don't like the way update manager works in 9.04. But, for most people upgrading is a good thing. | 12:56 |

| gluonman | I need to change the permissions on my external hard drive so that I can use my friend's Mac to copy a video onto my external. Can I have help? Soon? | 12:56 |
| azlon | getting errors when using Portable Linux... anybody had any problems when it tries to create the windows partition? | 12:56 |
| afancy | Severian: i mean will it override some directory, as i have install Postgresql, and Mysql and some other stuff of my project. | 12:56 |
| raylu | Jack8899: i'm not sure then. i'd look in /etc/apt/sources.list to see how the cd is set up there and consider "apt-get update" for a possibly more detailed error. i also have to go now, so sorry | 12:56 |
| raylu | gluonman: if the external is fat32, that's entirely a mac issue | 12:57 |
| topgun553 | I installed ubuntu side by side after windows, but it says it only has 161 MB free space, what should I do? | 12:57 |
| gluonman | raylu, it's ntfs | 12:57 |
| raylu | gluonman: or you have read-nly on | 12:57 |
| etb | in jaunty how can i stop the stupid popup notification of pidgin? | 12:57 |

| Hymnosis | what is the default font on ubuntu 9.04? | 12:57 |

| Boski-PL | Hello, could any1 hep me to mount raid0 set step by step with xp installation on it? | 12:57 |
| gluonman | raylu, k. I'm going to take off. Shootz! | 12:57 |
| afancy | Severian: very good. thanks | 12:58 |

| Jack8899 | E: Kann das Listenverzeichnis nicht sperren | 12:58 |
| raylu | Jack8899: you need sudo for that, of course | 12:58 |
| raylu | Jack8899: also, #ubuntu-de and #kubuntu-de might be able to help you :D | 12:58 |

| ruskos1993 | Привет всем | 13:01 |
| Dr_Willis | topgun553: when in doubt - keep backups.. gparted can 'resize' partitions. and do lots of things.. but keep backups | 13:02 |
| zfmf | hi guys, i have a question , i installed on my windows pc with virtualbox ubuntu 9, can i access my other harddisk where my mp3 and downloads are? | 13:02 |
| d0_0d | yes | 13:02 |
| ayathehusker | heya | 13:02 |
| Dr_Willis | zfmf: you have windows, running virtualbox, running ubuntu 9.04 ? | 13:03 |
| d0_0d | i think thats what he meant | 13:03 |
| zfmf | yes | 13:03 |
| ayathehusker | jaunty rocks | 13:03 |
| d0_0d | im going to get of windwos and boot from linux mint now bye | 13:03 |
| Dr_Willis | Virtutalbox has a feture to 'share' dirctories that you can mount, once you install the vbox guest addations, OR you could just use the normal smb/sharing/ssh/winscp stuff | 13:04 |
| ayathehusker | i opened like 12 games and 4 videos + youtube and tv tuner, mp3 and no lag in any of them | 13:04 |
| ayathehusker | sooo fast | 13:04 |
| Dr_Willis | see virgualbox docs for details on the 'vbox shared' directory feature. and the forum posts mentionit. | 13:04 |
| SporadicCrash | ayathehusker, CPU, RAM and video adapter you have? | 13:04 |
| regev | Hello all. I'm having a problem installing 9.04. Is anyone availible to help? :) | 13:05 |
| zfmf | ok thx i look | 13:05 |
| ayathehusker | phenom 9950 black edition, 4 gb ram and gtx280 nvidia | 13:05 |

| SporadicCrash | regev, just ask the question, yes | 13:05 |
| etb | in jaunty how can i stop the stupid popup notification of pidgin? | 13:05 |
| jelly12gen | etb: don't say stupid | 13:06 |
| jelly12gen | you have to install a plugin for it / or look at the pidgin plugins | 13:06 |
| Dr_Willis | sounds like aPidgin setting tome. | 13:06 |
| wiehan | I can't get sound from OSS, ALSA or any of the options in sound settings windows. I have removed alsa and reinstalled it. To no avail. Please help me. | 13:06 |
| S4th3N | ok bye | 13:06 |
| regev | Thanks. I have windows XP with one HD with 80G. I deleted a lot of files so now I have around 60G of free space. When I install 9.04 from the CD, I get to the partitioning part | 13:06 |
| regev | And then it seems like it doesn't recognized all the free space | 13:06 |
| regev | It things that XP has almost all the HD (70+G) and only like 2.5G free | 13:07 |
| Jack8899 | raylu: are you there? | 13:07 |
| Billynkid1 | atheros | 13:07 |
| regev | I may have some misunderstanding here, I don't really understand these things | 13:07 |
| ayathehusker | anyone know how to get past the unlocking keyring that gnome do has to unlock each time i launch GDM? I looked in my keyrings and i cant even find a default keyring. :( kinda new to some off the stuff. | 13:07 |
| Dr_Willis | regev: i tend to use gparted and manually resize the windows partition (shrink it) to have part of the HD at the end of the drive 'unallocated' then i reboot and let the ubuntu installer use that unallocated space. | 13:07 |
| wiehan | regev did you chose the option "use largest continous free space" | 13:07 |
| xand | regev: just deleting files won't make a partition smaller | 13:07 |
| Omeil | Hi all i am unable to boot into ubuntu after installing the restricted drivers from the hardware drivers selection in System, ATI related, I have fixed xserver to vesa but to no luck i also tried aticonfig --inital -f from root recovery and also aticonfig --input=/etc/X11/xorg.conf --tls=1 because it looked like xserver isn't loading the xorg.conf because of the ati installation | 13:07 |
| Labutaw | lspci i saw my network adapter but when ifconfig i only see LO why? and there is no eth0 or eth1 | 13:07 |
| robin0800 | wiehan: Try removing pulse audio | 13:08 |
| ayathehusker | i mean it only makes me type in my root pw when i login but id like to fix the issue so i dont have to type anything | 13:08 |
| regev | Dr_willis - gparted is already in linux, no? | 13:08 |
| wiehan | robin0800 thanks, I'll try that, please hang on to help me if that doesn't help. | 13:08 |
| Dr_Willis | regev: you can install gparted, if its not on the livecd. | 13:08 |
| regev | weihan - No I didn't, because I thought it would use that 2.5G bit. What would happen if I used it? Can't I decide I want only 50G free? | 13:08 |
| Omeil | After the ubuntu splash screen with the loading bar, the screen flashes to half of my desktop with te top half being a distorted image | 13:08 |
| Aayush | from where cound i downl;oad kernel source for ubuntu 9.04 | 13:09 |
| Jack8899 | I get the error E:failed to mount cdrom when I try to add my kubuntu cd to my repositories | 13:09 |
| regev | Dr_willis - I'm just following the instructing on the installation program, I don't see how I can install anythiung | 13:09 |
| Dr_Willis | regev: i DONT let the installer resize.. i boot up live cd,,, run gparted.. then i manually shrink the parttiions | 13:09 |
| Labutaw | lspci i saw my network adapter but when ifconfig i only see LO why? and there is no eth0 or eth1? | 13:09 |
| Dr_Willis | regev: i perfer a bit more contoll. | 13:09 |
| xand | Labutaw: ifconfg -a | 13:10 |
| regev | Dr_willis - in what part do I run gparted? | 13:10 |
| SporadicCrash | "ifconfig -a" | 13:10 |
| regev | There's actually an option to set the partitions manually | 13:10 |
| xand | Labutaw: if it's there but not without the -a, it means the interface is there but not active | 13:10 |
| Dr_Willis | regev: when you get to the 'desktop' on the liove cd. you can install/run gparted. | 13:10 |
| regev | But I'm not sure what to do there, I'm afraid to wipe out stuff | 13:10 |
| Aayush | from where cound i download kernel source for ubuntu 9.04 | 13:10 |
| wiehan | regev, I can't get my head around what exactly the problem is, but like someone else said, deleting files WON'T make a partition smaller, ubuntu tries to resize the partitions if you check, "use largest cont..." otherwise you can manualy do it with gparted. OR just insert ubuntu CD while in windows and install as wubi - that really works well to | 13:10 |
| Labutaw | xand how to make active? | 13:11 |
| Dr_Willis | regev: once you have part of the HD 'unallocated' you can tell the installer to 'use unallocated space' and let it partition as it needs. | 13:11 |
| Labutaw | xand? how to make active? any links | 13:11 |
| xand | Aayush: the linux-source package | 13:11 |
| regev | So at what part exactly would I run gparted? | 13:11 |
| xand | Labutaw: click the network icon on the toolbar at the top of the screen | 13:11 |
| Labutaw | xand: i dont have GUI i use text mode hardy heron server 8.04 | 13:12 |
| Dr_Willis | regev: 'boot live cd' - get to desktop, 'install gparted, run gparted' resize, reboot, start installer | 13:12 |
| CantGetANick | hi all i need a general opinion about amd vs intel | 13:12 |
| xand | Labutaw: oh right, you probably need to edit /etc/network/interfaces then | 13:12 |
| Dr_Willis | regev: or explore the installer some more. its supposed to be able to 'resize' the windows drives. | 13:12 |
| xand | Labutaw: is network manager installed or not? | 13:12 |
| regev | I see | 13:13 |

| xand | Labutaw: "ps -ef | grep -i network" and see if there is network-manager or something there | 13:16 |
| regev | I'm selecting "Edit partition", it uses only 14G so I rewrite the size to be 30000M | 13:16 |
| wiehan | robin0800: still not working, removed pulseaudio, didn't restart - would that make a diff? | 13:16 |
| CantGetANick | hi all i need a general opinion about amd vs intel | 13:16 |
| regev | Is that okay? Will that just resize the partition or will it wipe it all out? | 13:16 |
| === tue is now known as weezil | ||

| Dr_Willis | regev: i think theres some install docs at teh ubuntu web site.. you want to be carefull. and when in doubtg BACKUP your Imporntant data. | 13:17 |
| wiehan | robin0800: just plain sudo apt-get auto remove alsa. Then sudo apt-get install alsa. Then sudo alsa reload or what? | 13:17 |
| Dr_Willis | regev: this is why i use gparted and manually resize the windows partitions to begin with.. that way i am SURE what the installer id installingto | 13:18 |
| === sukke_ is now known as sukke | ||

| regev | It seems to be a bit weird that someone who doesn't know linux at all has to boot it up, load some program in order for it to work.. | 13:20 |
| xand | Labutaw: does it say network manager? | 13:20 |
| Labutaw | nope | 13:20 |
| regev | It seems the install docs are not updated to 9.04 | 13:20 |
| Labutaw | xand: nope | 13:20 |
| MotivatedWarDog | hello all | 13:20 |
| Dr_Willis | regev: time to learn some tools.. or not and go back to windows i guess.. or figure out what the instller is asking and go for it. | 13:20 |
| xand | Labutaw: ok, in that case you need to edit /etc/network/interfaces | 13:20 |
| CantGetANick | sorry to bug you guys again i need a general opinion about amd vs intel | 13:20 |
| Dr_Willis | regev: your choice.. linux is all about choices. im telling you how 'I' do it. so i am sure its doing exctly what i want | 13:20 |
| Labutaw | xand: okey and | 13:21 |
| xand | Labutaw: example - http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/setting-up-an-network-interfaces-file/ | 13:21 |
| MotivatedWarDog | does anyone know a good emulation program, i tried to use VM Wareplayer, but i couldn't figure out how to just pop an OS install disk into my drive and install it virtually ? | 13:21 |
| robin0800 | wiehan: Sorrey must be aptitude not apt-get | 13:21 |
| wiehan | regev: you are wrong: that which you want to do can't be doen with windows in the first place. You do not HAVE to boot "some other program" to "make it work". just read the documentation. or backup your stuff FIRST and then play around | 13:21 |
| Dr_Willis | MotivatedWarDog: virtualbox i find easer then vmware. | 13:21 |
| Dr_Willis | MotivatedWarDog: its rather easy to figure out. | 13:21 |

| robin0800 | wiehan: Don't know then try help & support | 13:23 |
| loldma | can anyone tell me how to run an old script? it always makes unexcepted "(" syntax error :( | 13:24 |
| loldma | (kylix install on 8.04 | 13:24 |
| Dr_Willis | chazco: ive herad of others with the same issue.. perhaps check the forums.. thers been a dozen people asking about it in here over the last week | 13:24 |
| Dr_Willis | loldma: be sure the script is calling #!/bin/bash instead of #!/bin/sh as the first line perhaps... | 13:24 |
| Dr_Willis | loldma: or 'bash whateverscript' | 13:24 |
| chazco | Dr_Willis - Ok, will do (probably been me asking on here :D ) | 13:24 |
| Dr_Willis | chazco: i got no ogm's hand to to test. so cant help. | 13:25 |
| Dr_Willis | chazco: plus i always use gmplauer or vlc. :) | 13:25 |

| AussieGuy | with a shift key etc | 13:26 |
| notoriouseed | Hi | 13:26 |
| chazco | Dr_Willis - Considered switching... need DVB, DVD and various other media formats. Totem also has the thumbnailer... | 13:26 |
| loldma | i've tried bash xyz :S | 13:26 |
| loldma | same :S | 13:26 |
| notoriouseed | I'm having trouble connecting to my NX | 13:26 |
| Dr_Willis | chazco: err.. vlc can play most anything ive ever tossed at it. including dvd. | 13:26 |
| ayathehusker | i think there is TI calculator emulators for linux, check on zophar.net. That would probably give you functionality. | 13:26 |
| Dr_Willis | loldma: check first line of the script. | 13:26 |
| chazco | Dr_Willis - But it doesnt have a thumbnail and DVB support was poor :( | 13:27 |
| Dr_Willis | chazco: no idea what you mean by thumbnail support. | 13:27 |
| error404notfound | any comments at http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1146964 ? | 13:27 |

| DaveWM | so is kubuntu just ubuntu with kde instead of gnome as default desktop? | 13:27 |
| xand | Labutaw: should say there | 13:27 |
| Dr_Willis | DaveWM: yes. | 13:27 |
| chazco | Dr_Willis - The thumbnails shown in Nautilus... they're generated by totem by default | 13:27 |
| MotivatedWarDog | <--- hates the internet on base in Japan | 13:27 |
| loldma | #!/bin/bash | 13:27 |
| Dr_Willis | chazco: so? i still use vlc, and the thumbnails in teh file manager works the same. | 13:28 |
| moDumass | hey all, is it unsafe to hold your breath until you pass out? | 13:28 |
| error404notfound | moDumass, no :P | 13:28 |
| ayathehusker | i tried kubuntu but had some errors and the regular gnome one works great for me though. Dont know if theres any advantages since you can launch kde apps in gnome and gnome apps in kde. | 13:28 |
| Dr_Willis | loldma: sounds like the file may be currupted.. or very badly done. | 13:28 |
| moDumass | awesome | 13:28 |
| DaveWM | shouldnt be too bad if you don't hit your head on the way down | 13:28 |
| notoriouseed | I have enabled the root account and have no space left on this for some reason | 13:28 |
| chazco | Dr_Willis - Then presumably Totem is able to play your files, but since Totem cant play these the thumbnails dont work (wouldnt be an issue but they're very useful when text cant be seen on my low-resolution projector) | 13:28 |
| loldma | setup.data/main.sh: 73: Syntax error: "(" unexpected | 13:28 |

| Labutaw | xand: i can't see it, i really wonder how to identify thos two network adapter | 13:29 |
| Dr_Willis | chazco: ive heard of others that said the OGM thumbnails DID work.. but the player wouldent play them right. | 13:29 |
| loldma | people saying it worked on 5.04 | 13:29 |
| xand | Labutaw: can't see what? does ifconfig -a have eth0 and eth1? | 13:29 |
| Labutaw | xand: coz when i ifconfig i saw none of my ethX active | 13:29 |
| moDumass | im going to combine it with an emergency inflatable vest, when i pass out it inflates and excess air blows a whistle | 13:29 |
| Dr_Willis | chazco: about all i can say is check the forums.. sounds like some quirky problem. | 13:29 |
| chazco | Dr_Willis - Hmm... seems to be a 50/50 chance of them working here but mostly they dont... otherwise I'd agree and switch to another player (Kaffeine would be good if not so bloated) | 13:30 |
| chazco | Dr_Willis - On the forums atm :) Thanks :) | 13:30 |

| marko-_-- | file * | 13:34 |
| DaveWM | really if i could just figure out how to get all the icons replaced with some of these high contrast inverse ones, it would make my overall look on this netook pretty sweet | 13:34 |
| DaveWM | already looks kind of dark and stealthy | 13:34 |
| oliver_g2 | hm, found some sounds in Openoffice folder now | 13:34 |
| oliver_g2 | but some built-in sound would be nice :-/ | 13:34 |
| TarBar | Is there an easy way to start ubuntu desktop without a GUI? | 13:34 |
| nnull | Guys ive been having problems with FireFox randomly crashing, so ran it out of a terminal all that echo's upon the crash is "Segmentation Fault :" .. any ideas? | 13:35 |
| MQDuck | Hi, people. I have a question: Is there a command-line e-mail client that can be used to write a script to send an e-mail periodically? | 13:35 |
| muelli | TarBar: remove gdm from /etc/rc*.d/ | 13:35 |
| oliver_g2 | DaveWM: did you try the Appearance dialog (if you use Gnome, that is)? | 13:35 |
| muelli | MQDuck: sendmail, mailx, xmail, mutt, telnet, python, ... there are plenty :) | 13:35 |
| DaveWM | yeah | 13:35 |
| notoriouseed | Is sda2 the admin account? | 13:36 |
| DaveWM | it only replaces some icons, i guess for known items | 13:36 |
| oliver_g2 | oh | 13:36 |
| notoriouseed | becuase i cannot NX to my server | 13:36 |
| grawity | MQDuck: You could just use raw SMTP from your favourite programming language (even from a shell script). | 13:36 |
| notoriouseed | and its saying disk is fulkl | 13:36 |
| DaveWM | i'd like it if i could get all my taskbar and desktop icons replaced | 13:36 |
| oliver_g2 | yeah, probably there are a few only high-contrast icons available at all | 13:36 |
| DaveWM | desktop will be easy, but the taskbar icons i dunno | 13:36 |
| MQDuck | I'll look into those. Thanks, guys | 13:36 |
| wonnytta | how do you turn off warnings on boot up? I hate the splash screen switches to verbose mode everytime there's a warning | 13:36 |
| Dr_Willis | TarBar: just disable the gdm service.. X wont start up at boot. | 13:37 |
| oliver_g2 | notoriouseed: sda2 is probably the second partion on your hard disk# | 13:37 |
| marko-_-- | how can i convert a .flv file to .wma ? | 13:37 |
| Labutaw | !ping | 13:37 |
| thirsteh | TarBar: sudo update-rc.d -f gdm remove | 13:37 |
| ubottu | ping yourself ;-) really the diodes all down my left side are sore | 13:37 |
| oliver_g2 | (sda = first disk; sda2: second partition on that disk) | 13:37 |
| === desti_T2 is now known as desti | ||
| Dr_Willis | marko-_--: ffmpeg, and mencoder can covert them to different formats. use avi. not wma :) | 13:38 |
| thirsteh | TarBar: If you want to enable it again later, use: sudo update-rc.d gdm defaults | 13:38 |
| marko-_-- | Dr_Willis, i need to get only the sound, because i need to burn a sound from a youtube video to a cd | 13:38 |
| marko-_-- | what do you suggest me ? | 13:38 |
| uli | marko: then use mp3 | 13:38 |
| oliver_g2 | DaveWM: the app/Gnome/Ubuntu devs will certainly be happy if you supply high-contrast themed icons for their apps :-D | 13:38 |
| Dr_Willis | marko-_--: check the mencoder, or ffmpeg docs/faq they got examples of things like that. | 13:38 |
| marko-_-- | ok, tnx | 13:39 |
| DaveWM | i'm talking about using the ones that are already on here | 13:39 |
| wonnytta | how do you turn off warnings on boot up? I hate the splash screen switches to verbose mode everytime there's a warning | 13:39 |
| DaveWM | i wasnt gonna go through all that trouble | 13:39 |
| oliver_g2 | though, dunno if it's even possible to get the icons converted | 13:39 |
| oliver_g2 | which icons do you mean exactly? | 13:39 |
| DaveWM | i'm talking about the high contrast inverted icon theme that you can select | 13:39 |
| DaveWM | they're big, white with black outlines | 13:40 |
| oliver_g2 | eek | 13:40 |
| oliver_g2 | I just tried that | 13:40 |
| DaveWM | they look good with my current theme on this eee pc | 13:40 |
| oliver_g2 | it looks freakish in its inconsistency :-) | 13:40 |
| DaveWM | yeah, having it mixed with regular icons makes it not so nice really | 13:40 |
| loldma | Dr_Willis: the problem is that in one of the setup scripts it calls the main.sh with sh main.sh, now i try to search where is it in the code :S | 13:40 |
| Ignite | few feels good to overcome problems | 13:40 |
| Dr_Willis | loldma: yep.. seen that in the past also... | 13:41 |
| Dr_Willis | loldma: as a 'work around' you could change the default shell to be 'bash' instead of sh. | 13:41 |
| oliver_g2 | here, I'm missing hiconstrast icons for firefox, apport, tracker, transmission, rhythmbox and NM... | 13:41 |
| oliver_g2 | and for all applets | 13:41 |
| loldma | also i found a solution as "sudo dpkg-reconfigure dash" | 13:41 |
| Dr_Willis | loldma: i think ya can do it with 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure sh' | 13:41 |
| Dr_Willis | loldma: yep. :) | 13:41 |
| Dr_Willis | loldma: file a bug report on teh srcipt writers. :) heh | 13:42 |
| loldma | but won't it screw up my terminal? | 13:42 |
| Dr_Willis | loldma: change it back afterwards | 13:42 |
| loldma | how? | 13:42 |
| Dr_Willis | loldma: sh is he 'system shell' NOT the 'users shell' | 13:42 |
| wonnytta | how do you turn off warnings on boot up? The splash screen switches to verbose mode everytime there's a warning | 13:42 |
| Dr_Willis | how to change it back? same way you changed it to begin with | 13:42 |
| coz_ | hey guys there doesnt seem to be a libglew1.5-dev in the repos anyplace to aquire this for ubuntu? | 13:42 |
| Dr_Willis | !find libglew | 13:43 |
| ubottu | Found: libglew1.5, libglew1.5-dev | 13:43 |
| loldma | okay, a have some knowledge problems :d so what is the main shell what the terminal uses? | 13:43 |
| Dr_Willis | loldma: users nomally use 'bash' system scripts normally use 'sh' | 13:43 |
| antonio_ | ciao, buona domenica | 13:43 |
| Dr_Willis | loldma: and sh is set to be 'dash' on ubuntu now.. | 13:43 |
| cybotron | does anyone know how to change colours in LINKS2 browser??? | 13:43 |
| coz_ | Dr_Willis, I cant find it in the repositories at all | 13:43 |
| loldma | oh thanks :) | 13:43 |
| wonnytta | how do you turn off warnings on boot up? The splash screen switches to verbose mode everytime there's a warning | 13:43 |
| Dr_Willis | coz_: try a 'sudo apt-get update' and 'upgrade' and try again? | 13:44 |
| coz_ | Dr_Willis, nope its not in the repos | 13:44 |

| vatts[afk] | jamescarr: then it should do it? | 13:46 |
| jamescarr | vatts[afk], it is on usb | 13:47 |
| vatts[afk] | antonio_: no need for sudo | 13:47 |
| vatts[afk] | because | 13:47 |
| coz_ | Dr_Willis, rather I didnt have that ticked | 13:47 |
| Dr_Willis | coz_: not sure where that package came from. but it instlled. :) | 13:47 |
| Dr_Willis | coz_: heh.. | 13:47 |

| coz_ | Dr_Willis, yeah it was entirely my fault :) | 13:47 |
| LadyNikon | What are some disadvantages of installing via windows? | 13:47 |
| TarBar | thirsteh: It's saying: update-rc.d /etc/ini.d/gdm exists during rc.d purge | 13:47 |
| coz_ | Dr_Willis, woops on second examination this is the readout E: I wasn't able to locate file for the libglew1.5-dev package. This might mean you need to manually fix this package. | 13:47 |

| thirsteh | TarBar: You can use "/etc/init.d/gdm stop" afterwards if you don't want to reboot | 13:49 |
| LadyNikon | Dr_Willis: that bad huh? | 13:49 |
| TarBar | ok | 13:49 |
| xfm | Hello, I need help to localise a file *.deb which is corrupted on my ubuntu | 13:49 |
| Dr_Willis | LadyNikon: if you cant do a full install. perhaps try ubuntu in 'virtualbox' | 13:49 |
| coz_ | Dr_Willis, http://pastebin.com/md1eb803 I will compare the two although this is a clean install of 9.04 | 13:49 |

| LadyNikon | Dr_Willis: but the new version of ubuntu looks very nice :) | 13:51 |
| Dr_Willis | LadyNikon: many windows vendors set up a 'restore' partition on teh start of the ahrd drive. | 13:51 |
| LadyNikon | Dr_Willis: yeah thats what the 10 gigs of space that just sitting there is for | 13:51 |
| xfm | Dr_Willis: Yes, and its often bullshit: you have to install a lot a software in the same time | 13:51 |
| gordonjcp | here's a daft question - where has "Shutdown" gone in 9.04? | 13:52 |

| lem_ | newbie, my advice is, if you are a ubuntu beginner, go for the 9.04 release. it's brand new and it's really good. | 13:54 |
| newbie | how can I find it? | 13:54 |
| jamescarr | there must be some program to rrun? | 13:54 |

| lem_ | thirsteh, I was thinking of using a vm for ubuntu on my mac os 10.5. are vm's really slow? | 13:57 |

| xfm | and give us the result | 13:57 |
| lordmetroid | Why doesn't the numpad keys work? | 13:57 |
| loldma | it worked! thanks a lot Dr_Willis! :) | 13:57 |
| lem_ | thirsteh, so you managed to get the vmware tools installed | 13:57 |
| StevenTyler | any idea why this is not working: grep apple . | 13:57 |
| e1luca | @ newbie: or lspci | grep wlan | 13:57 |
| thirsteh | lem_: no, VMs on todays machines are fast, but installing tools on VMWare is a must, or it will be slow | 13:57 |
| lordmetroid | I have num lock on but there is no characters comming when I press any of them keys | 13:57 |
| thirsteh | lem_: yep | 13:57 |
| StevenTyler | I know there are many files in the pwd which contains the text "apple" | 13:58 |
| Bischoop | Hi | 13:58 |
| StevenTyler | grep "apple" . doesn't help either | 13:58 |
| lem_ | thirsteh, do you use it on a regular basis? | 13:58 |
| lordmetroid | Hmm, I can control the mouse with the numpad | 13:58 |
| newbie | iwconfig came back lo no wireless eho0 no wireless, etc | 13:58 |

| newbie | I don' know where to look for the switch | 13:59 |
| LadyNikon | newbie: what model of laptop is it? | 13:59 |
| muelli | StevenTyler: the syntax for "grep" is "grep $needle $haystack" where $needle is the word you're looking for and $haystack are the *files* you are looking in. But the fullstop, you are providing, is a directory. | 13:59 |
| LadyNikon | newbie: it should be either on the bottom right, the side, look for the wifi icon | 13:59 |
| muelli | StevenTyler: if you want to grep through a directory, try grep -r. | 13:59 |
| gordonjcp | LadyNikon: there isn't a big red X, there's a round red "power button" symbol. In previous versions of Ubuntu, it had Shutdown | 14:00 |

| Dr_Willis | lordmetroid: you expect the numpad to do both at the same time? | 14:02 |
| lem_ | thirsteh, so in which way is it slower without the vmware tools? because of the more complicated procedures in case you want to copy files from on os to the other? | 14:02 |

| bilalakhtar | hello guys i have a problem with printer | 14:02 |
| bilalakhtar | i hav a hp deskjet 845c printer | 14:02 |
| bilalakhtar | its quite old | 14:02 |
| lordmetroid | Yes, if I have num lock on I should be able to use the numpad not as a pseudo-cursor but as a numpad | 14:02 |
| newbie | xfm, nothing lo, eth0,wmaster | 14:02 |
| muelli | !enter | bilalakhtar | 14:02 |
| gordonjcp | LadyNikon: not in mine, then... Where do you enable it? | 14:02 |
| ubottu | bilalakhtar: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation! | 14:02 |
| LadyNikon | newbie: look on the side | 14:02 |
| Dr_Willis | lordmetroid: theres a 'accessability' feature of that. | 14:03 |
| e1luca | @newbie: HP Pavillon ZD8000 has wifi on launch keys | 14:03 |
| Zzeiss | spixer: the magic (assuming you're on 9.04) is to (with quotes as shown) sudo apt-get install ".*gnash.*" | 14:03 |
| tom17bombadil | so far i used parameters like vga=771, noapic,acpi=off,pci=noacpi and nolapic | 14:03 |
| bilalakhtar | it installs all fine | 14:03 |
| bilalakhtar | but | 14:03 |
| bilalakhtar | when it prints it prints them in some other font | 14:03 |
| bilalakhtar | they look like codes | 14:03 |
| muelli | Zzeiss, spixer: better use single quotes to properly quote the argument. | 14:03 |
| spixer | Zzeiss: i have fix it but thanks :) | 14:03 |
| newbie | I did. Saw things that look like wifi, but just under, a cnnection | 14:04 |
| lordmetroid | That is what I am saying, if that acceciblity function is activated I can only use the numpad as a pseudo-cursor and if I turn the numlock on, I can't use the numpad for anything, cursor nor writing | 14:04 |
| Zzeiss | That brings in gnash (not flash) which as of the 9.04 versions plays all of the YouTube por... er, movies that I've tried. | 14:04 |
| Uuu | bilalakhtar: sorry, you are quite unreadable, you should write everything in ONE line | 14:04 |

| thirsteh | lem_: it's slower because Ubuntu doesn't 'know' that it's a virtual guest before you install VMWare Tools. When you install it, you effectively install new 'drivers' for the virtual harddrive, ethernet adapter, mouse and keyboard | 14:04 |

| Uuu | anyone understand him? ;p | 14:41 |
| unixluser | not nat. only desktop machine. I need to open ports with iptables for p2p. but i have block all in policy atm | 14:41 |

| Andy80 | hi all | 14:41 |
| phix | fde: alot of linux contributors should get a life and evaulate actual user use instead of designing programs to their ability | 14:41 |
| fde | grawity: why unfortunately? I find "user friendly" apps just make things take longer and make things harder to find | 14:41 |
| Slart | unixluser: just set some ports to "accept".. man iptables should tell you how to do that | 14:41 |
| unixluser | Dr_Willis: for me? | 14:41 |
| === vishalrao_away is now known as vishalrao | ||
| grawity | fde: Depends on the "friendliness". | 14:42 |
| Slart | unixluser: but of course.. ufw is much easier.. or gufw | 14:42 |
| unixluser | !info ufw | 14:42 |
| ubottu | ufw (source: ufw): program for managing a netfilter firewall. In component main, is standard. Version 0.27-0ubuntu2 (jaunty), package size 61 kB, installed size 436 kB | 14:42 |
| fde | phix: umm... that's just it, they have a life, they write programs for your use in their free time. | 14:42 |
| Dr_Willis | unixluser: see if it does what you need. | 14:42 |
| unixluser | Slart, Dr_Willis: can i save iptables rules with (g)ufw, and if i remove (g)ufw later, i can use those rules manually? | 14:42 |
| Ilaria1990 | guys, can you tell me another channel to ask for support please? Thanks! | 14:42 |
| fde | grawity: I cite Gnome and recent changes to KDE as proof that "user friendly" almost always means "more time consuming" | 14:42 |
| Uuu | TUPUE_: niente, nic, nothing, nichts ;/ | 14:42 |
| salvo | ciaooo | 14:43 |
| Dr_Willis | unixluser: all these tools just are front ends to generate the proper iptable rules from what ive seen | 14:43 |

| phix | fde: wrong approach, programs should be written freely that actually gives benefit to users, then they will use your program and require further support if they want more feature, in which you get paid, then you release results to the open source community | 14:43 |

| Andy80 | I'm running Jaunty on a secondary hard disk and I'd like to reinstall it on the primary hard disk, where I've a running RAID1 for my / mount point and another for /home. The question is: do I need Jaunty ALTERNATE Install or the desktop version is enough too? N.b: the RAID1 is already configured and is running on a Intrepid (I cannot upgrade because I'm getting too many errors, since I've installed too many 3rd party p | 14:43 |
| Andy80 | ackages). | 14:43 |
| fde | phix: actually, that's not true, they write apps for THEIR use in their free time, and release them under an open source license so that maybe others find them useful | 14:43 |

| IndyGunFreak | jlaroche: what system sounds?.. like startup and exit? | 15:06 |
| Natanael_L | How can I upgrade? VLC 0.9.9 ain't in the repository, only VLC 0.9.4 | 15:06 |
| Slart | thomasfedb: interesting question.. you might be able to use something like "ident" to make the firewall check what user/app is on the other side.. let me know if you find out how to do it | 15:06 |
| Mion | jlaroche: they work if you use esd, but esd is a mess | 15:06 |
| Uuu | test | 15:06 |
| Dr_Willis | Natanael_L: see if theres some newer versions on the PPA repo sites. or use source. | 15:06 |

| Seveas | Mion, in 9.04 it's all using libcanberra / gstreamer / pulseaudio I thought | 15:06 |
| DigitalKiwi | hi Uuu wut | 15:06 |
| Uuu | DigitalKiwi: wut? | 15:06 |
| Natanael_L | jlaroche: It works over here | 15:07 |
| magnet | DigitalKiwi: If it were so, just apt-get source coreutils, remove the patch, and rebuild it :) | 15:07 |
| jlaroche | what is esd? | 15:07 |
| DigitalKiwi | you said test | 15:07 |
| Natanael_L | At least on login and stuff | 15:07 |
| mattgirv | esound sound daemon | 15:07 |
| Adyeths | so... my computer locked up yet again... and I still haven't gotten a solution as to why in ubuntu starting with the 8.10 release this has been happening.... *sigh* | 15:07 |
| Mion | jlaroche: something that you don't want to use | 15:07 |
| jlaroche | Natanael_L mind if I pm you for a sec? | 15:07 |
| phix | how do I get code completion working on netbeans on junty? it works fine in hardy | 15:07 |

| mattgirv | er, enlightened sound daemon i mean. jlaroche | 15:07 |
| Natanael_L | Dr_Willis: Where? Links and stuff? | 15:07 |
| Seveas | jlaroche, esd is obsolete :) | 15:07 |

| neldoreth | hey, is anyone of you using an fritzbox wlan usb n stick under ubuntu 9.04 32-bit - i was able to use it successfully in arch64, but on ubuntu32 bit, it doesnt create a wlan0 device on modprobe ndiswrapper | 15:08 |
| Natanael_L | Found the videolan channel ;) | 15:08 |
| DigitalKiwi | gotta run :( | 15:08 |
| jlaroche | My issue is not everything plays.... Startup sound plays, but trash sound doesn't, logoff doesn't... most everything doesn't... except for login | 15:08 |
| Fillado | does anyone have experience on setting the resolution in Ubuntu without a monitor (that you remotely connect to)? | 15:08 |
| thomasfedb | Slart: thats not quite what i'm trying to acheive. I'm running a linux firewall under vmware server so I dont want direct access to the host on one NIC | 15:08 |
| Seveas | Fillado, DISPLAY=:0 xrandr | 15:09 |
| jlaroche | and I've gone into sounds and cusomized them to see for sure... still doesn't play what I change (unless its logon) | 15:09 |
| Natanael_L | jlaroche: Well, I usually don't use those things. But I think that's because it's not set | 15:09 |

| * Adyeths wonders if anyone here has a clue as to why ubuntu 8.10 and now 9.04 would be locking up on him requiring him to turn the power off and on and restart it. | 15:09 | |
| jlaroche | well i'm saying I manually set them | 15:09 |
| jlaroche | I really think things like this don't get noticed because ubuntu users don't generally use them, notice, or care enough when they see it doesn't work | 15:10 |
| Natanael_L | System > Settings > Sound > Tab named "Sound" | 15:10 |
| Fillado | Seveas: what do I do with that? :) | 15:10 |
| jlaroche | yeah.. that's where it is | 15:10 |
| Natanael_L | There you've got a bunch of system sound settings | 15:10 |
| Natanael_L | So you've set it already? | 15:10 |
| Natanael_L | Hmmm... | 15:10 |
| Seveas | Fillado, man xrandr | 15:11 |
| Seveas | ;) | 15:11 |
| jlaroche | yes... i said that many times.... | 15:11 |
| Dr_Willis | I was thinking htere was some other global place to enable/dsable sound settings... | 15:11 |
| dewd | omg this shouldn't be so hard to find | 15:11 |
| Dr_Willis | but i always turn the annoying thing off. | 15:11 |
| Dr_Willis | Not in linux to check at the moment either. | 15:11 |
| e1luca | I have a smb share. It works well but I can't find it in file/open from programs? where is it mounted? | 15:12 |
| fde | Seveas: you're correct, that is the method used upstream nowadays | 15:12 |
| sacarlson | e1uca my guess is it mounts in /media | 15:13 |
| Dr_Willis | e1luca: gnome file namager 'browses' the shares. it dosent mount them. | 15:13 |
| spixer | How to install java? | 15:14 |
| jlaroche | so.. no thoughts o the broken sounds? | 15:14 |
| Dr_Willis | e1luca: some programs can handle the smb://whatever/whever type url some cant. | 15:14 |
| e1luca | so how do I mont it than? | 15:14 |
| Natanael_L | jlaroche: Do you really need it? | 15:14 |

| Adyeths | is there anyone here who has a clue as to why ubuntu 8.10 and now 9.04 would be locking up requiring me turn the power off and on and restart my computer. | 15:15 |
| jlaroche | thanks mattgirv | 15:16 |
| tomoyuki28jp | urxvt is much slower than gnome-terminal and mlterm. Is that normal? | 15:16 |
| Seveas | Adyeths, look in /var/log/* after the restart for clues. It could be a hardware hang, kernel bug or something else. | 15:16 |
| mattgirv | jlaroche, Should clear up any sound related conflicts you have, and should bolster compatibility with everything working with each other | 15:16 |
| Adyeths | there are never any messages in /var/log | 15:16 |
| `Ned | Slart, oops my bad...thanks for pointing that out | 15:16 |
| Uuu | tomoyuki28jp: I noticed that urxvt is slower for ncurses programs, so maybe it's normal. | 15:16 |
| Adyeths | which makes this especially frustrating because I don't know where to even begin looking to find a solution to this problem. | 15:17 |
| Uuu | tomoyuki28jp: but not very slow. | 15:17 |
| tomoyuki28jp | Uuu: I see. Would you recommend any other terminals? | 15:17 |

| Adyeths | and how would I fix this "bad memory connector" if thats what the problem is? also, wouldn't that produce problems with memtest as well? because I haven't seen any problems when running memtest. | 15:19 |

| thirsteh | `Ned: then most likely, wget can't find any links to follow (i.e. it's a Flash site or the links are generated through JavaScript) | 15:40 |
| thirsteh | `Ned: What's the real URL? | 15:40 |
| Itaku`brb | whats the download link to ubuntu for ps3? | 15:40 |

| daasdingo | hi, when I tried to install qt4-doc on a fresh install of 9.04 I got a cache error when reading /var/cache/apt/archives/qt4-doc_4.5.0-0ubuntu4_all.deb, so I tried deleting it so apt would download it again, but now I get this error when trying to install ANY package : http://paste.ubuntu.com/163583/, does anyone know how to solve this? | 15:40 |
| mattgirv | mickey: hm, ok one second | 15:40 |

| mattgirv | mickey: Make sure you dont have adobe-flashplugin installed too | 15:41 |
| darkvertex | !ask | hitman_88 | 15:42 |
| ubottu | hitman_88: 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. :-) | 15:42 |
| mattgirv | mickey: sudo apt-get remove adobe-flashplugin | 15:42 |

| sven_ | does anyone know how to work with tftp? | 15:43 |
| daasdingo | hi all, when I tried to install qt4-doc on a fresh install of 9.04 I got a cache error when reading /var/cache/apt/archives/qt4-doc_4.5.0-0ubuntu4_all.deb, so I tried deleting it so apt would download it again, but now I get this error when trying to install ANY package : http://paste.ubuntu.com/163583/, does anyone know how to solve this? I already tried downloading the file and placing it where it was before | 15:43 |
| Dr_Willis | !tftp | 15:43 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about tftp | 15:43 |
| thirsteh | `Ned: that's normal. The 301 is probably a just a redirect from e.g. http://www.yoursite.com to http://yoursite.com, and wget isn't doing anything because the front page hasn't changed. It should still check for any valid links and follow them, though, so I'm guessing there aren't any "real links" on the page | 15:43 |
| mattgirv | mickey: I'd make sure you dont have swfdec or Gnash installed as they /may/ conflict... open Synaptic and search for them and double check they arent installed | 15:44 |
| vertagano | sven_, A little. I used it to setup my MediaMVP. | 15:44 |
| sven_ | vertagano: I don't know how I can enter a pasword | 15:44 |
| hitman_88 | anyone can give me that key | 15:45 |
| thirsteh | `Ned: It's also possible that the website is redirecting you to another domain. wget won't follow links indefinitely, so you should run 'wget -m http://therealurl.geocities.com' instead | 15:45 |
| `Ned | thirsteh, I'm trying to download directories...and there's bunch of files in there | 15:45 |
| sacarlson | daasdingo did you try update repositores | 15:45 |
| `Ned | thirsteh, and it's mostly just txt files | 15:45 |
| vertagano | sven_, I don't think tftp is designed to work with passwords. | 15:46 |
| thirsteh | `Ned: wget isn't like FTP though. If there isn't a link (<a href...></a>) to something, wget won't try to follow it | 15:46 |
| sven_ | how can I add a pasword in the code: atftp --option "mode octet" --option "timeout 60" --verbose --trace -p -l code.bin 192.168.1.1 | 15:46 |
| hitman_88 | please any one give me cd key of windows vista | 15:46 |
| `Ned | thirsteh, I don't understand because this was working for me a few days ago? | 15:46 |
| Uuu | hitman_88: great joke, really, but now let us be serious. | 15:46 |
| mickey | mattgirv, i got it thanks | 15:46 |
| vertagano | sven_, From man atftpd: "TFTP by itself has no provision for security. There is no user authentication" | 15:47 |
| mattgirv | mickey: Cool, what was it? | 15:47 |
| gartral | is it possible to write an EXT3 filesystem to a flash drive? | 15:47 |
| mickey | mattgirv, swfdec was installed | 15:47 |
| daasdingo | sacarlson: just did apt-get update, but still get the same error when trying to install anything http://paste.ubuntu.com/163583/ | 15:47 |
| mattgirv | mickey: :) Ahhh | 15:47 |
| sven_ | vertagano: what do I have to use so I can use the pswd :s | 15:47 |
| Jack8899 | In Kaffeine I have only Video but NO sound. What can I do? | 15:48 |
| thirsteh | `Ned: sorry, can't really tell without seeing the site. I guess it's possible GeoCities is using framesets, I'm not sure if wget follows that | 15:48 |
| Dr_Willis | gartral: yes. | 15:48 |
| vertagano | sven_, Normal FTP or SFTP would use passwords...but they don't fill the same purpose as TFTP. Are you sure you need a password? You could just use firewalling to limit the machine that can access the ATFTP daemon. | 15:48 |
| hackel | Is there anyone else not seeing notifications from Rhythmbox anymore in Jaunty? | 15:49 |
| daasdingo | hi all, when I tried to install qt4-doc on a fresh install of 9.04 I got a cache error when reading /var/cache/apt/archives/qt4-doc_4.5.0-0ubuntu4_all.deb, so I tried deleting it so apt would download it again, but now I get this error when trying to install ANY package : http://paste.ubuntu.com/163583/, does anyone know how to solve this?

| LeNsTR | hi all | 15:51 |
| thirsteh | `Ned: unless there's an index.html directory listing (i.e. a link to every file in that folder) in i.e. mysite.com/dir1/, wget won't try to download mysite.com/dir1/file1.txt or mysite.com/dir1/file2.txt. wget (or any other client) simply won't know that it's there | 15:51 |

| alek66 | rafael: es una sala de charla de ubuntu.... no creo que puedas hacer algo de pick up aqui | 15:55 |

| Natanael_L | That "install to USB" thing works for USBs. | 15:58 |
| LeNsTR | hi | 15:58 |
| Natanael_L | @alek66: I don't think there's something like it for HDDs yet. Try getting UNetbootin. Then you can run Ubuntu LiveCD from the HDD once after setting it up in UNetbootin without messing everything up. | 15:58 |
| Natanael_L | You need an Ubuntu ISO too. | 15:58 |
| FloodBot2 | Natanael_L: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 15:58 |
| ubuntu9 | Anyone get worked Hamachi on Ubuntu? | 15:58 |
| sacarlson | Petein I think I would look at a script language like Ruby or maybe bash script could do it. | 15:58 |

| daasdingo | any suggestions? | 16:00 |
| kronopio | coleys: hi, good day | 16:00 |
| sacarlson | daasdingo I saw alot in google but no solution sounded like a bug? | 16:00 |
| mattgirv | daasdingo, sudo dpkg --configure -a | 16:01 |
| Natanael_L | alek66: Get UNetbootin and the Ubuntu 9.04 ISO. Then you set UNetbootin to use that ISO and boot from the HDD you specify. Then you reboot and make sure the BIOS boots from that HDD (it won't just setup GRUB as far as I know, but I haven't tried it yet - i might reconfig GRUB) | 16:01 |
| ubuntu9 | lol no one has get worked hamachi on ubuntu lol | 16:01 |
| kronopio | coleys: I am still strugglng with loading java | 16:01 |
| vertagano | ubuntu9, No, I haven't, but try this: http://supware.net/HamachiUbuntuHowto/ | 16:01 |
| darkvertex | ubuntu9: maybe you'd better join http://forums.hamachi.cc/viewforum.php?f=15 | 16:01 |
| Natanael_L | alek66: Then it will boot from that ISO and you can do the install. | 16:01 |

| daasdingo | mattgirv: np, thanks for tryin' | 16:07 |
| outboard | and get the xchat one not the gnome x-chat | 16:07 |
| wtv | gartral: i think so | 16:07 |
| annaimkonki | Votan: chatzilla.. works great as a firefox extension | 16:07 |

| tnt996 | vertagano, do you know what may be causeing this? | 16:42 |
| Barridus | Roasted, http://i69.photobucket.com/albums/i44/solidus0079/Screenshot-1-2.png | 16:42 |
| Roasted | leeguy92 - You see how theres 3 networks, 1 insecured, 1 secured, and 1 secured by WPA2? The one thats secured that says nothing is an indication to me that its WEP | 16:42 |
| vertagano | tnt996, I haven't tried to connect to Windows shares with the GUI before. Are you familiar with the command line? | 16:42 |
| Dr_Willis | saiki: you could 'cat /dev/input/js0 ' (or whatever device it is) and hit all the bittons ya want and see if ya get output | 16:42 |
| Roasted | barridus - is that something specific to the theme you're using in gnome?? I've never seen that before... | 16:43 |
| maria__ | i need another tip | 16:43 |
| maria__ | Change permanently by adding a line | 16:43 |
| maria__ | wireless-rate 11M | 16:43 |
| maria__ | into /etc/network/interfaces. | 16:43 |
| Barridus | Roasted, the theme is just the jaunty new age one | 16:43 |
| Dr_Willis | fusesmb tool is working now for me under 9.04 - it makes accessing windows shares a bit easier. | 16:43 |
| wtv | gartral: ok i used VLC and watched some part of Twilight | 16:43 |
| tnt996 | vertagano, if you tell me the commands i can XD i know alot about command lines in windows so im sure i can try here | 16:43 |
| maria__ | should i add that line before or after | 16:43 |
| vertagano | tnt996, Alright. | 16:43 |
| Barridus | new wave rather | 16:43 |
| linduxed | in intrepid i had no sound until i used the alsa-1.0.19 installation script found in the forums. now in jaunty even if i use that script i still have no sound | 16:43 |
| sammyF | hey there | 16:44 |
| maria__ | auto lo | 16:44 |
| maria__ | iface lo inet loopback | 16:44 |
| chaosphere | Dr_Willis: ok, i'll have a look thanks a lot! | 16:44 |
| vertagano | tnt996, First, make a folder somewhere to be our mount point. mkdir ~/server | 16:44 |
| GreggM_ | I created a bootable USB but when I boot syslinux cant find a kernel it just says boot: | 16:44 |
| sammyF | where is the keystore for my encryption keys located? | 16:44 |
| Roasted | barridus - I'm not too sure then, brother. I just kicked on the new wave theme and mine didn't look like that. You might have some luck on the forums in case others ran into that issue, but this is an issue I'm not familiar with. | 16:44 |
| maria__ | or should i delete that loopback command altogether? | 16:44 |
| linduxed | any ideas on why | 16:44 |
| linduxed | ? | 16:44 |
| vertagano | tnt996, Then connect to it: mount.cifs //server/server ~/server | 16:44 |

| saiki | Dr_Willis: any wy to record that to a file? | 16:46 |

| tnt996 | i have to install it | 16:46 |
| bc | ubuntu9: what happened with hamachi? | 16:47 |
| vertagano | tnt996, That might be the problem... After you get that installed, the GUI might work. | 16:47 |

| vertagano | tnt996, The command line to get the share list is: smbclient -L //server | 16:51 |
| maria__ | I would like to set it to 11mbit so that it stays that way with every bootup | 16:51 |

| Mion | Hymnosis: also, a full cache = good | 16:55 |

| Travis-42 | I'm trying to run OpenArena in full screen mode, but I have multiple monitors and am having trouble. By setting the xorg.conf "metamodes" to have "DFP-0: 1920x1200, DFP-1:NULL" I've managed to get it to shut off the undesired monitor. But now the screens from both the left and right monitor get compressed onto one screen. How do I get this to work? | 17:20 |
| mvc1741 | hey how can align the icons from desktop to the right side? | 17:20 |

| Dethlok | Hey all, I have my hard drive setup to 3 partitions (winxp, ubuntu9.04, and linux swap). I wanted to take extra free space from my windows xp partition and give it to my ubuntu partition, I shrunk my winxp to the size I wanted and the space is now called "unallocated" but I can't seem to find any programs or partition editors that will let me put the extra space on the ubuntu partiton, any ideas? | 17:21 |
| cM0ss | darthanubis, thank you....now maybe someone with intelligence can help me. | 17:21 |
| darthanubis | exodus_ms, "dude" mine your business. He can't be helped. | 17:21 |
| jken146 | mvc1741: There could be an option in gconf somewhere. Try running gconf-editor and look through there | 17:21 |

| malex | Are there known issues with ext3 on Jaunty? I upgraded a perfectly working Intrepid install to Jaunty and my filesystems keep being corrupted after a few minutes of use. Clean repartitioning and reinstalls don't help - the corruption happens again and again. | 17:21 |
| darthanubis | exodus_ms, take your own advise | 17:22 |
| hateball | Dethlok: You should be able to do those kind of operations with gparted-live, as it will live-boot so your partitions remain unmounted | 17:22 |

| vertagano | saiki, What do you mean by "recore"? | 17:22 |
| Seeker` | now | 17:22 |
| jken146 | Dethlok: You can do this with gparted, but you'd have to have the linux partition unmounted, so you will need to do it from a live CD. The ubuntu Live CD will work fine | 17:22 |
| darthanubis | Seeker`, your late, there is no "discussion" | 17:22 |
| Dethlok | i tried that using the ubuntu live cd but it will only let me shrink the ext3 not make it biger | 17:22 |

| bobstro | maria__: spell check is working fine though. | 17:40 |
| saiki | vixus: newest | 17:40 |
| maria__ | bobstro....no, no errors. The checker opens, scans the document and finds no errors. But Ive purposely made errors to test to see if the checker is working | 17:40 |
| saiki | mine's 180.## | 17:40 |
| bobstro | maria__: same here with grammar, although spelling check is working. | 17:41 |
| saiki | I think .51 but don't quote me o it | 17:41 |

| maria__ | bobstro....yes | 17:43 |

| keegangrayson | are you dual booting Dethlok? | 17:47 |

| Dethlok | yes | 17:47 |
| Dethlok | xp | 17:47 |
| baker | i have one system only | 17:47 |

| Stepan1 | jken146: Thing is, I don't want the text to show up, i just want the script to run. I can achieve this by clicking the Display or Run button. I dont want it to run in terminal. | 17:56 |
| tnt996 | vertagano, what can i do to fix this? | 17:56 |
| Pici | ajcates: In theory, yes. | 17:57 |
| jken146 | Stepan1: Then right-click and open it with a text editor | 17:57 |

| burntresistor | is there a linux equivalent ap for Microsoft one note | 17:59 |
| jken146 | Stepan1: Yes, it's nautilus that's bringing up the dialog box with the options. You could try playing with nautilus' settings in gconf-editor to see if there is a way to disable this behaviour | 17:59 |

| atrocity | decker, hmm, ok. basically, i shares my "pictures" folder (not in home directory, on an entirely different partition" with my wife, and she has access to create files and folders on it just fine... | 18:01 |

| atrocity | dvd burner? | 18:02 |
| decker | atrocity: brands. other than sony | 18:02 |
| saiki | leeguy92: sorry, don't have a broadcom, can't help ya | 18:02 |

| napa | Does anyone know how I can get a higher resolution with my ATI Radeon 2400 PRO pci/ex screenadapter??? When upgrading the drivers automatically it gives me 800x600 only | 18:03 |
| decker | atrocity: nope. | 18:03 |
| decker | atrocity: anyhow. it's taking you 10 minutes to spit out a brand. fine. don't spit out a brand. maybe you don't know. so your wife, she does some samba junk with pictures. what's the problem? | 18:05 |
| ajcates | Any one have any ideas on how I can make OSX and ubuntu use the same home directory? | 18:05 |
| Mion | napa: xrandr | 18:05 |
| napa | Mion: What is xrandr? | 18:05 |
| Mion | an application | 18:06 |
| atrocity | decker, i dunno...i use the cheap-o dvd writers...it's the media that's most important, anyway | 18:06 |
| dudedano | i am looking for a amish cellular phone | 18:06 |
| decker | ajcates: nfs would be about the best way I suppose. | 18:06 |
| ajcates | decker whats nfs? | 18:06 |
| Barre | is there any way to add the fast-user-switch-applet to UNR 9.04? | 18:06 |
| Mion | napa: open a terminal and run xrandr | 18:06 |
| Mion | napa: see if the mode you want is listed | 18:06 |
| PhotoJim | decker: LG burners are good. Samsung are also good. Some like Pioneer. Suggest looking at a CD/DVD/BR-specific forum site like cdfreaks and read some reviews. | 18:06 |
| === caty_film_watchi is now known as caty_film | ||
| decker | ajcates: if you want the stuff local, I dunno. filesystems are going to be the gotcha. I guess go with whatever's native to osx, which is ufs or something, no? or hppfs is the newer one? something like that...anyhow, make sure linux supports it, set the home directories up on the same partition for both systems, you're golden | 18:07 |
| decker | ajcates: except for the fact that one of those screwy osx filesystems isn't case sensitive, so you'll be screwed that way... | 18:08 |
| Gnea | decker: I recommend LG, if you want a quality burner that will last for the long haul | 18:08 |
| decker | ajcates: nfs is network file system by the way. meaning you'd have your home directories shared somewhers external to your dual boot machine. | 18:08 |
| ajcates | decker osx supports xfs so ill be good on the file system | 18:09 |
| Gnea | !nfs | 18:09 |
| ubottu | nfs is the network file system. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SettingUpNFSHowTo for information on installing and configuring NFS. | 18:09 |
| atrocity | sorry...i keep researching more, anyway | 18:09 |
| ajcates | decker no way on the nfs for a home directory | 18:09 |
| kovacsleeve | Is a firewall (software) needed in Ubuntu? Do you guys run one? | 18:09 |
| neoteny999 | k9copy says no devices were detected but totem plays the disc. | 18:09 |
| decker | ajcates: xfs? doubtful. | 18:09 |
| atrocity | yeah...i'm sharing my "picture" directory with her...she can read/write to it just fine | 18:09 |
| atrocity | but if she makes a new folder in it, the folder is read only and i can't figure out how to make it so she has write access to those folders | 18:10 |
| decker | ajcates: heard they were switching to that new sun junk at some point though. zfs I suppose is what you're thinking of as opposed to xfs? | 18:10 |
| Jack8899 | what package do i need to build/make/compile? I want to compile a Theme for kde4... | 18:10 |
| Gnea | atrocity: why not cifs? | 18:10 |
| PhotoJim | kovacsleeve: Linux is very secure. I recommend running a firewall if you are hosting a Linux-based router. but for individual machines, it's not necessary. | 18:10 |
| sebsebseb | kovacsleeve: you need a firewall, whatever OS your on | 18:11 |
| Gnea | kovacsleeve: yeah, firewalls are great, but they're not going to block xss | 18:11 |
| kovacsleeve | PhotoJim: I have a router, but it just has the Linksys software on it | 18:11 |
| sebsebseb | kovacsleeve: hardware firewall :) | 18:11 |
| decker | atrocity: there's a bitmask you set, which controls what permissions are on junk that's newly created. use swat. it's annoying at first, but once you learn how to use the help and ignore most of everything, you're golden | 18:11 |
| subinacls | anyone here have the "magicjack" | 18:11 |
| sebsebseb | Gnea: xss?? what's that | 18:11 |
| thrillERboy | what is wine irc? | 18:11 |
| Gnea | sebsebseb: cross-site scripting | 18:11 |
| sebsebseb | thrillERboy: #winehq | 18:11 |
| bc | for anyone that is using Gnome Do, can you tell me if it learns in the same way Quicksilver does? | 18:11 |
| kovacsleeve | sebsebseb: What firewall do you recommend for Ubuntu? | 18:11 |
| PhotoJim | kovacsleeve: my router is a Pentium 133 running Debian (Ubuntu didn't exist when I deployed it :) ). I run firewalling on it, to prevent some traffic from getting to Windows clients. | 18:11 |
| leeguy92 | i got a problem with a laptop not authenticating with a wifi networkWPAv1 | 18:11 |
| ajcates | decker you might be right, i forget if its xfs or zfs | 18:12 |
| sebsebseb | kovacsleeve: if you got a router, then you probably got a hardware firewall, so have that enabled | 18:12 |
| Gnea | sebsebseb: that's what the noscript plugin for firefox is for ;) | 18:12 |
| atrocity | hmm, ok | 18:12 |
| atrocity | and sorry, i am using cifs :P | 18:12 |
| sebsebseb | kovacsleeve: and you will be ok, as long as you also have a good Ubuntu password not like say abc12e | 18:12 |
| sebsebseb | abc123 | 18:12 |
| Gnea | atrocity: ah okay. are you able to edit ntfs permissions from her side? | 18:12 |
| atrocity | oh...crap... | 18:13 |
| sebsebseb | kovacsleeve: also there are more proper hardware firewalls that can be bought, but that's not really nessarey for the average person | 18:13 |
| dudedano | i am looking for a amish cellular phone. | 18:13 |
| atrocity | i just realized something...bbiab | 18:13 |
| decker | ajcates: xfs is a filesystem from sgi, which they ported to linux. I'm 99% sure osx doesn't support it. zfs is suns new junk, which osx supports perhaps now, but I'm thinking not for your root partition, meaning you can't boot off it and whatnot. | 18:13 |
| PhotoJim | dudedano: offtopic for this channel... | 18:13 |
| napa | i did xrandr in a console and it says Screen 0: minimum 320 x 200, current 1024 x 768, maximum 1280 x 1280 | 18:13 |
| napa | DFP2 connected 1024x768+0+0 (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 338mm x 270mm | 18:13 |
| napa | 1280x1024 60.0 + 60.0 | 18:13 |
| kovacsleeve | sebsebseb: So when you said a firewall was needed, you meant just the router itself? | 18:13 |
| napa | I want to change it to 1280x1024 | 18:13 |
| sebsebseb | kovacsleeve: routers tend to have firewalls | 18:14 |
| sebsebseb | kovacsleeve: make sure yours is enabled | 18:14 |
| dudedano | join offtopic | 18:14 |
| decker | ajcates: anyhow, for a dual boot osx/linux machine, go with the osx filesystem that is case sensative. Im pretty sure...but hey, try #macosx, and #opendarwin on this place. they'd be way better and telling you what to do I figure. | 18:14 |
| Gnea | dudedano: you might want to /join #ubuntu-offtopic and be sure to ask for dehydrated water as well | 18:14 |
| sebsebseb | kovacsleeve: also if you know what your doing, amazing firewall type stuff can be done with Linux, but that means you got to learn iptables or the other one | 18:14 |
| sebsebseb | !iptables | 18:14 |
| ubottu | Ubuntu, like any other linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'ufw' command (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Uncomplicated_Firewall_ufw), or 'iptables' (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo). GUI applications such as Firestarter/Gufw (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE) also exist | 18:14 |
| napa | When trying to open display preferences nothing happens (I get a window with grey backround and a green bar in the middle) | 18:14 |
| sebsebseb | kovacsleeve: firestarter is pretty rubbish the gui one | 18:15 |
| kovacsleeve | sebsebseb: Thanks for your thoughts on this. | 18:15 |
| atrocity | back | 18:15 |
| atrocity | Gnea, i totally moved her over to ubuntu, too | 18:15 |
| atrocity | so no...she doesn't really access ntfs permissions :P | 18:15 |
| Gnea | atrocity: oh! good job | 18:15 |
| Gnea | atrocity: so you're using samba? | 18:16 |
| atrocity | she's been using it for over a month now | 18:16 |
| bc | kovacsleeve: one option, search the ubuntu doc site for ufw or "uncomplicated firewall" | 18:16 |
| atrocity | yeah | 18:16 |
| atrocity | we still have other non-linux machines on the network, so i have to keep using it | 18:16 |
| napa | can anyone please help me? | 18:16 |
| sebsebseb | kovacsleeve: ok no problem | 18:16 |
| sebsebseb | atrocity: with? | 18:16 |
| sebsebseb | oh wrong guy | 18:16 |
| decker | napa: try with another account? | 18:16 |
| sebsebseb | napa: with? | 18:16 |
| atrocity | with what? | 18:16 |
| kikl | what's your problem napa? | 18:17 |
| sebsebseb | atrocity: wrong guy | 18:17 |
| atrocity | oh, lol | 18:17 |
| atrocity | kk | 18:17 |
| Gnea | atrocity: samba can be tricky, but you should be able to fix the write issue by allowing her username to modify via swat | 18:17 |
| kovacsleeve | I'm thinking of getting my mom set up on Ubuntu. She's always getting weird M$ updates and spyware screwing her up. Linux I think would just work for her. | 18:17 |
| mzz | kovacsleeve: I did the same | 18:17 |
| sebsebseb | kovacsleeve: yep probably | 18:17 |
| atrocity | i have her machine auto-mounting the samba shares w/ cifs in /etc/fstab just fine...like i said, she DOES have read/write access to the shared folders just fine | 18:17 |
| Gnea | kovacsleeve: did that years ago, she loves it | 18:17 |
| qsi | hi all, anyone knows of any software that allows you to control the mouse and keyboard of a remote machine without actually using something like vnc? All i'm interested in is control the mouse and keyboard of a remote machine which video out is connected to a big screen, .... | 18:17 |
| kikl | thinking about the same thing kovacsleeve | 18:17 |
| sebsebseb | kovacsleeve: also she has some Windows specific nonsense, but then we can talk about virtual machines and wine | 18:17 |
| atrocity | it's just when she makes a new folder herself in it, the new folder is r/o | 18:17 |
| sebsebseb | kovacsleeve: unless she.. above | 18:18 |
| Gnea | atrocity: right, so do you have swat intalled? | 18:18 |
| decker | kovacsleeve: if you're mom is like mine, just needs email and web, then it works out real nice. go with the long term support distros like ubuntu 8.4 or whatever or centos, you never have to muck with the machine even. | 18:18 |
| atrocity | Gnea, no, lol, getting there | 18:18 |
| kovacsleeve | See, my mom doesnt really need M$ specific stuff, and it seems like she loses internet everytime there's a windows security update. I dunno what shes doing, but I'm constantly fixing her computer :) | 18:18 |
| Gnea | atrocity: okay :) | 18:18 |
| StarTrek_XI_ | since jaunty, archive manager repeatedly gives me the error "Archive type not supported." even though .rar support is installed | 18:18 |

| thrillERboy | what is wine irc? | 18:18 |
| sebsebseb | kovacsleeve: LTS hummm nah | 18:18 |
| mzz | I made the switch easier by getting her using thunderbird and firefox in windows first | 18:18 |
| sebsebseb | kovacsleeve: you wil be the admin and responsible for updates | 18:18 |
| twanny796 | when using apt, I get segmentation faulty tree ... 0%, how can i resolve this?? | 18:19 |
| sebsebseb | kovacsleeve: so you can have whatever version of Ubuntu you want that is suppourted at the time. so at the moment 8.04, 8.10 and 9.04 | 18:19 |
| Hymnosis | what about webcam support for yout mom? | 18:19 |
| kovacsleeve | I usually fix her up with VNC (assumign she can still get online) | 18:19 |
| sebsebseb | !vnc | kovasleeve | 18:19 |
| ubottu | kovasleeve: 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 | 18:19 |
| kovacsleeve | If I do that, shoudl I make my own login to SSH into her computer with you think? | 18:19 |
| decker | sebsebseb: sure. but I'm talking a fire and forget it solution... | 18:19 |
| thrillERboy | !wine | thrillerboy | 18:19 |
| ubottu | thrillERboy, please see my private message | 18:19 |
| mzz | kovacsleeve: that could be useful | 18:19 |
| twanny796 | when using apt, I get segmentation faulty tree ... 0%, how can i resolve this?? | 18:20 |
| sebsebseb | decker: maybe, but only if they know how to apply updates, and upgrade when they need to | 18:20 |
| sebsebseb | decker: LTS does not last forever suppourt runs out | 18:20 |
| mzz | kovacsleeve: I haven't done so, because it'd involve setting up portforwards in the router she's behind, and I haven't gotten around to doing that | 18:20 |
| decker | sebsebseb: years and years. and what? you can't do some apt nonsense in cron? seems to me like that would be cake | 18:20 |
| kovacsleeve | If I use VNC on Ubuntu with her, will I have to mess with router port forwarding? | 18:20 |
| napa | I'm pretty sick of the ati shit :p But I should work since it was on a compitably list | 18:20 |
| sebsebseb | decker: 2 years only for 8.04 on the desktop | 18:20 |

| sebsebseb | tuxitjaunty: yes, but Ext4 should be good for both now | 18:25 |

| KavanS | anyone have slow speeds with iwl3945 / intel wireless card and ubuntu? | 18:26 |
| sebsebseb | tuxitjaunty: there are like 3 issues mentioned in the release notes, but they woudn't effect a clean install, unless you were to maybe resize the Ext4 partition | 18:26 |
| mzz | pronoy_: different partitions, yes, but it's not that hard to set this up in the installer | 18:26 |

| pronoy_ | mzz: you mean in the same partition you can have 2 different filesystems ?? | 18:26 |
| mzz | pronoy_: no | 18:26 |
| KavanS | jtaji, 8.10 | 18:26 |
| tuxitjaunty | no separate partition | 18:27 |
| pronoy_ | mzz: so you do need different partitions right ? | 18:27 |
| sebsebseb | tuxitjaunty: so move it some where else, and start over with Ext4? | 18:27 |
| jtaji | KavanS: install the linux-backports-modules-intrepid package, then reboot | 18:27 |
| pitbullthe1st | are there issues with ubuntu 9.04 64bit?? as i have a dell xps m1530 and it dose not always shut down properly | 18:27 |
| jtaji | KavanS: that will fix it | 18:27 |
| mzz | pronoy_: you would indeed need two partitions (or three really, /, /home and swap), with different filesystems, But setting this up in the installer is not that hard. Nor is reusing an existing ext3 /home. | 18:27 |

| javier | I need help I have a Orinoco wireless card, and I have been trying to put in Monitor Mode, I have Intrepid... HELP | 18:27 |
| KavanS | jtaji, ok...are you sure of thiss? | 18:27 |
| jtaji | KavanS: pretty sure, well known problem which I also had on my thinkpad | 18:27 |
| pronoy_ | tuxitjaunty: as mzz said it isn't possible within one partition | 18:28 |
| Alaisa | omfg awesome http://tinyurl.com/lolmaopwnd lol | 18:28 |
| mzz | pronoy_: yes, but he wasn't asking about doing it using one partition, or was he? | 18:28 |
| pronoy_ | mzz: i guess he was | 18:28 |
| tuxitjaunty | j have 2 partition , / and home | 18:28 |
| tuxitjaunty | j wont to convert home in ext4 | 18:28 |
| KavanS | jtaji, okay...going to give this a try thanks! if this works do I do the same for jaunty when I upgrade? | 18:28 |
| Mion | tuxitjaunty: you might want a seperate /boot partion | 18:29 |
| mzz | tuxitjaunty: if /home is already on a partition of its own or you're creating fresh partitions this'll work. If you currently have a single ext3 / partition (including /home) it's slightly more complicated. | 18:29 |
| jtaji | KavanS: yeah after I upgraded I needed to manually install linux-backports-modules-jaunty | 18:29 |

| shadeslayer | ultras: set your sound in and sound out to pulse | 18:35 |
| ultras | shadeslayer: i tried that, and every other device in list, no luck. | 18:35 |
| KyleK | yea, but its best to isolate problems | 18:35 |
| shadeslayer | ultras: thes switch to the OSS one | 18:35 |
| KyleK | so skype uses alsa now? | 18:36 |
| linduxed | jimi: why? you're gonna install this remotely? | 18:36 |
| ultras | shadeslayer: i do that in sound properties? | 18:36 |
| jimi | linduxed, hands free | 18:36 |
| KyleK | ultras: theres also a "padsp skype" option, may have to install padsp | 18:36 |

| gartral | usser: that stinks... | 18:39 |
| KavanS | thanks jtaji for the advice, that was pro....getting a lot faster speeds now | 18:39 |
| jimi | this works mostly..... but still requires some interaction? | 18:39 |
| usser | gartral, yep. they do that | 18:39 |
| DJvRadio | pitbullthe1st are you still there?? | 18:39 |
| KyleK | nmpribeiro: if its mounting a file as a filesystem, could just make the file bigger and then resize2fs it if its ext2/3, sounds like a feature a gui should do tho | 18:39 |
| shadeslayer | usser: the question is HOW can they do that ? | 18:39 |
| pronoy_ | nmpribeiro: why don't you just resize the ntfs partion and increase the size of the installation | 18:40 |
| LadyNikon | http://www.anunturi.ro/ups/1239353490-193377247.jpg | 18:40 |
| linduxed | jimi: its packaged that way, and since it reacts with a curses interaction right after install, i think its made to work that way | 18:40 |
| Jere` | Hi. I just installed Ubuntu 9.04 64-bit from CD and now when I try to run any application in Wine screen starts blinking to black for few times. Does anyone have an idea what could be wrong? | 18:40 |
| Andy80 | hi all | 18:40 |
| nmpribeiro | pronoy_: because it's a file mounted as a filesystem | 18:40 |
| usser | shadeslayer, just dont include it in the latest driver, the question is why they'd do that, it doesnt cost them anything to just leave it there. | 18:40 |
| pronoy_ | nmpribeiro: what ?? | 18:41 |
| skpx | i just upgraded to jaunty and my compiz isnt loading right. it says "Xgl: no present" when i run it from the terminal how can i go about fixing this so compiz will load like it used to | 18:41 |
| shadeslayer | usser: yeah but as a MNC they ARE supposed to support what they sell | 18:41 |
| nmpribeiro | KyleK: is there a tutorial I can follow? or... what keywords can I use in google? because it's hard to found something about filesystems and that sort of things in google | 18:41 |
| jtaji | KavanS: excellent | 18:41 |
| gartral | shadeslayer: why am i not seeing instructions for 9.04? | 18:41 |
| KyleK | nmpribeiro: extend loopback filesystem | 18:42 |
| KyleK | are you in it now? | 18:42 |
| nmpribeiro | pronoy_: well... if you choose to install inside vista, then It creates a file with, say, 17GB if you choose 17GB. it's not a partition then. I don't see how | 18:42 |
| seb- | Spamassassin problems in Jaunty? Am I the only one? | 18:42 |
| nmpribeiro | KyleK: thanks | 18:42 |
| usser | shadeslayer, yea. thats true, i dunno. the good thing about it is, its not just linux, they drop support for those "older" cards in windows too | 18:42 |
| seb- | like spamassassin STOPPED WORKING?! | 18:42 |
| usser | gartral, dont bother with fglrx it wont work for your card | 18:43 |
| [4-tea-2] | Howdy. I noticed gnome-panel leaked memory (up to half a gig, then I have to restart it), while the clock stopped working. I think it's related to a) my panel being vertical (left side), and/or b) weather display being enabled (now that I disabled it, gnome-panel stays under 50M). | 18:43 |

| Andy80 | I've just re-installed Ubuntu Jaunty on my PC, where previously I had a configured and running RAID1: I've used alternate install CD, during install I've choosen the manual partition editor and it was able to view the existing RAID. So I used the 50 Gb partition as / (formatting it) and the 250Gb for /home (not formatting it). I completed the installation. At the end it asked me to write GRUB on the MBR, and I did choo | 18:43 |
| Andy80 | se yes. At reboot in the grub menu I cannot boot anything :( if I choose the newly installed Ubuntu I get error 17, if I choose the Ubuntu jaunty I've on another disk I get error 12. How can I restore it? | 18:43 |
| gartral | usser: what will? | 18:43 |
| usser | gartral, the instructions you're looking at are generic and should work the same across all releases of ubuntu | 18:43 |
| shadeslayer | gartral: you *could* use the open source drivers,but with caution | 18:43 |
| pronoy_ | nmpribeiro http://theubuntuexperiment.wordpress.com/2008/01/04/installation/ | 18:44 |
| gartral | usser shadeslayer what will work with this card? | 18:44 |
| usser | gartral, whatever you hve right now. just to be sure put Driver "ati" in the devices section of your /etc/X11/xorg.conf | 18:44 |
| shadeslayer | gartral: i told you,you could use the open source drivers | 18:44 |

| shadeslayer | ok ill try | 18:50 |
| Andy80 | KyleK: how? | 18:50 |
| Mike94287 | exodus_ms: I'm not sure, I just ran the command apt-get install python-gtk2 python-glade2 but it told me nothing upgraded or installed. | 18:50 |

| === root is now known as Esde | ||
| plcTowlie | Desen, just be mindful of your firewall and typical security stuff. That is your responsibility | 18:51 |
| usser | shadeslayer, like ffmpeg -i file.rm -acodec libmp3lame -ac 2 -ab 128000 -ar 44100 file.mp3 | 18:51 |
| KyleK | ultras: the real process could be something else? | 18:51 |
| KyleK | if i had something running pulseaudio i could track it down if thats the problem | 18:52 |
| shadeslayer | usser: ill try that out | 18:52 |
| Desen | plcTowelie, are the DNSs fast, ok ? I am thinking i just change them, but i have these concerns | 18:52 |
| Andy80 | KyleK: uhm.... the first line says: root (hd0,0) - isn't it wrong? RAID is on hd1 and hd2, hd0 is /dev/sda, don't you find it? | 18:52 |
| KyleK | Andy80: so try (hd1,0) | 18:52 |
| Esde | i just upgraded to Jaunty 9.04 and BEFORE i did all my wireless worked perfect. once i upgraded i no longer can SEE my card or anything, i have madwifi configured correctly etc etc. i am on the Acer Aspire One with the Atheros 5k adapter. | 18:52 |
| Andy80 | KyleK: yes, I try now... | 18:53 |
| plcTowlie | Desen, your internet traffic does not go through the DNS. It is simply a lookup table that links www.netaddress.com to your current IP address. | 18:53 |
| KyleK | if that doesn't work maybe use the tab completion to search around the file systems | 18:53 |

| helder | i allready have it | 18:55 |
| nmpribeiro | KyleK: wasn't able to find something. | 18:55 |
| mattgirv | donpdonp: Problem with that is your card has poor OpenGL acceleration, something of which I believe WoW requires. | 18:55 |
| doktoreas | I'll be waiting :D | 18:55 |
| baker | partition manager will be great | 18:55 |
| Esde | should i just do a fresh install of 8.10? | 18:55 |
| mattgirv | donpdonp: I know your card will run it within Windows, but the performance would still be very poor | 18:55 |
| Dr_Willis | helder: you can mount the thing from the fstab with the proper lines.. or install/run 'ntfs-config' and tweak the settings with that tool | 18:55 |
| donpdonp | mattgirv: it was usable in 8.10, now it doesnt even draw correctly | 18:56 |
| thirsteh | lianimator: they should be able to help in #evolution | 18:56 |
| baker | just search in add/remove software | 18:56 |

| lianimator | thirsteh: no.. that channel doesn't exist. | 18:56 |
| donpdonp | plcTowlie: yeah i have an ordinary video card :) | 18:56 |
| mattgirv | donpdonp: Do you have 3D acceleration support with the drivers you have installed? | 18:56 |
| nmpribeiro | KyleK: so I have a loopback filesystem? is that right? | 18:56 |
| donpdonp | mattgirv: yes. | 18:56 |
| helder | ok i activated ntfs-config but they wont show up | 18:57 |
| baker | i tell u before | 18:57 |
| baker | partition manager | 18:57 |
| Esde | could it be a conflict with ndiswrapper and madwifi? | 18:57 |
| baker | try it | 18:57 |

| marksman | How can I tell if my wireless card supports injection? It is an Airlink AWLL3026\NA? | 18:58 |
| plcTowlie | helder, if this is the first time you are mounting the NTFS partition, if the NTFS was not shut down properly, it may be flagged, and the normal mount will not work | 18:58 |
| sam_ | mine tries to use the kernels from intrepid | 18:58 |
| Dr_Willis | helder: check /etc/fstab - you may need to put proper entries in the fstab file for the devices. ntfs-config may not do that for you | 18:58 |
| Guest88104 | someone can ask on #debian why i am banned ? | 18:58 |
| sam_ | and then cant find them | 18:58 |

| Chrom_ | does anyone knows why in jaunty new kernel versions are not included in the apt-get upgrade process? | 19:01 |

| mwas | hi folks, how do i use my laptops inbuilt webcam, I installed webcam tool but it didnt worked. any ideas | 19:01 |
| helder | thank you | 19:01 |
| jkuespert | ok.. ive installed ubuntu 9.04 on a USB drive, but nothing persists across reboots | 19:01 |
| Chrom_ | I'm running kernel 2.6.28-11-generic, and I see there is 2.6.28-12-generic available in the repos, but I get no upgrade | 19:01 |
| iceroot | Chrom_: because you alway find only fixes, no upgrades, as in every ubuntu-version with every package | 19:01 |
| Dr_Willis | jkuespert: thats how unetbootin works.. | 19:01 |
| jkuespert | oh.. ok | 19:01 |
| Chrom_ | iceroot: even if I apt-get dist-upgrade | 19:01 |
| jkuespert | grr | 19:01 |
| jim_p | hi people | 19:02 |
| jkuespert | is there an app that is trustworthy to dual-boot? | 19:02 |
| skeebo | jkuespert, think of it as a "live cd" on a usb :) | 19:02 |
| Tomislav | hi | 19:02 |
| Dr_Willis | jkuespert: by default at least. check pendrivelinux.com - they may have some tips on making it hav er a perisstant save.. OR use the ubuntu 'usb-disk creator tool' IT allows a persistant save file. | 19:02 |
| baker | ur welcome just try then tell me i'm here | 19:02 |
| jim_p | jkuespert, grub? | 19:02 |
| iceroot | Chrom_: yes, because in the repos are only fixes | 19:02 |
| exodus_ms | Chrom_, Have you tried sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade | 19:02 |
| skeebo | jkuespert, look up making a persistent home directory, that is what you would want to do | 19:03 |
| Chrom_ | I mean in earlier versions I've always got notifications of kernel upgrades, but now no upgrade from 2.6.28-11-generic to 2.6.28-12-generic | 19:03 |
| Chrom_ | yes sure, updated, upgraded, and dist-upgraded | 19:03 |
| iceroot | Chrom_: that is no kernel-upgrade, its a fix | 19:03 |
| jim_p | can someone suggest me a nice gtk theme? either that or i switch to openbox! | 19:03 |
| === root is now known as Guest68792 | ||
| iceroot | Chrom_: last number in a version is alaway a fix | 19:03 |
| jkuespert | bear in mind i know little to nothing about linux or any of its flavors.. i want to learn more and chose ubuntu as the os | 19:03 |
| jkuespert | dual boot recommendations then? | 19:03 |

| skeebo | Does anyone know of a terminal command to launch an app into a specific workspace? Some kind of parameter to use after the app i want to launch? | 19:04 |
| Dr_Willis | jkuespert: you could use that unetbootin thumbdrive., and the usb-creator tool (in the menus somewher) to make a 2nd thumbdrive tht does have a persistant save feature | 19:04 |
| Artelus | Does anyone use the Bluefish HTML editor | 19:04 |

| jamescarr | I set JAVA_HOME by adding it to /etc/environment | 19:05 |
| delay_lama | danub, unetbootin | 19:05 |
| jamescarr | now what do I need to do to make it work? | 19:05 |
| Artelus | Well, do you know how to make it so it doesn't finish a tag for you? | 19:05 |
| baker | use USB start up creator | 19:05 |
| Chrom_ | iceroot: but if I do apt-cache search 2.6.28 | grep linux-image | grep generic, I get both linux-image-2.6.28-11-generic and linux-image-2.6.28-12-generic | 19:05 |
| skeebo | Dr_Willis, if that works I'll buy you a beer lol, ive been looking everywere thank you | 19:05 |
| Chrom_ | so the latter is in the apt database | 19:05 |
| jim_p | Artelus, no :( sorry | 19:05 |
| Artelus | like when you type <p> it doesn't end the tag for you? | 19:05 |
| Chrom_ | I could manually install it | 19:06 |

| chava_ | hola | 19:06 |
| jkuespert | there is something not right about hopping on IRC and getting support.. should'nt i have to call India and wait for a few hours to get a less than useful answer to a quick question? | 19:06 |
| jim_p | can someone suggest me a nice gtk theme? | 19:06 |
| Chrom_ | I'm just wondering why it doesn't prompt me to install it as it always happened with earlier dostros | 19:06 |
| Dr_Willis | skeebo: someone was trying to make vlc or mplayer always go to the side monitor. | 19:06 |
| exodus_ms | skeebo, you can use devilspie to set that program to open in a certain virtual workspace every time it loads | 19:06 |
| Xarver | Can anyone help me remove gnome and all applications on 9.04? | 19:06 |

| thirsteh | Xarver: Uninstalling gnome-desktop only installs the metapackage. The best thing you can do (AFAIK) is to do something like 'sudo aptitude remove gnome*', but triple-check what's going to be removed first | 19:15 |

| tommi69 | i'm using jaunty server, to enable sound i installed both alsa and pulseaudio. whenever i reboot i see in alsamixer that the Master channel is muted and have to manually unmute it, how can i solve this? | 19:20 |
| WDC | Would WINE see /media/cdrom0 as D? | 19:20 |
| daftykins | WDC if you have WINE on your apps menu you can configure what it sees as optical etc | 19:20 |
| zyzy | cptblood, at the login screen change the session to KDE | 19:21 |
| WDC | daftykins: I got it. Thanks so much! | 19:21 |
| daftykins | :) | 19:22 |
| Dracofodder | hwilde: does the update manager run at startup? or get a periodic check? (like yast and zmd on SuSE?) or do I need to check that manually every once in a while to make sure I'm up to date on patches? | 19:22 |
| quit | Hey, is there any virtual CD drive program that I can get from the "Add/Remove" program? I cant seem to find any. | 19:22 |
| Terces_ | WDC: Try typing "winecfg" from the command line - you can configure the drives from there | 19:22 |
| thirsteh | Doonz: umount the drive ('sudo umount /dev/sda1'), use e.g. 'tune2fs -j /dev/sda1', then mount it as ext3; 'mount -t ext3 /dev/sda1 /mnt/hoho' | 19:22 |
| daftykins | quit the "mount" command on command line (terminal) can be used to mount a .ISO etc | 19:22 |
| Doonz | thirsteh: thanx | 19:22 |

| usser | quit, you can map any path in the system to any letter in wine | 19:25 |
| mzz | quit: if whatever you're trying to run doesn't care where the files are you don't need to mess with winecfg, can just mount the cd and access it through (iirc) wine's z: drive wherever you mounted | 19:25 |

| sacarlson | T1m0 normaly there is a README or INSTALL that tells ya | 19:30 |
| mzz | T1m0: what are you actually trying to install? Is there no ubuntu package for it? | 19:31 |
| T1m0 | i dunno | 19:31 |
| kevin009 | i had a system freeze a wile after creating a backup and I want to know if I should re-backup just in case the tar wasn't correctly written to disk | 19:31 |
| Terces_ | I was looking at different backup solutions and found rdiff-backup and duplicity. I really like the rdiff-backup versioning, but need it to be encrypted like duplicity, since many users will be backing up personal files to a company server. Does anyone have any ideas?. | 19:31 |
| challengeman | so any options for me? | 19:31 |
| T1m0 | i installed ubuntu 2 hours ago and the wlan doesn't seem to work. | 19:32 |
| Eneerge | :( | 19:32 |
| T1m0 | then i used google and read something about the network manager | 19:32 |
| sacarlson | good point mzz always look for a deb before you attempt a compile option | 19:32 |
| Terces_ | Also, when mounting private home folders in Jaunty, I believe they are mounted over the encrypted base store in .Private. Is there a way to get access to the encrypted store while the home is mounted (i.e. decrypted)? | 19:32 |
| * mzz should probably type that rant out and put it online somewhere so it can be linked to | 19:33 | |
| challengeman | should "reloading the system log daemon take > 20 minutes" | 19:33 |
| mzz | the "windows users migrating to linux: your first stop for software is now the distro's repositories, not the site of whoever produces the software" one, that is | 19:33 |
| T1m0 | well i couldn't find any windows that shows me the access points | 19:33 |
| T1m0 | and now i found this room :-) | 19:34 |
| challengeman | is my data gone? | 19:34 |
| === bitfish__ is now known as bitfish | ||
| lastman | T1m0, cant you see the network symbol in the panel? | 19:35 |
| T1m0 | i see it on the top right | 19:35 |
| T1m0 | a symbol that shows me that there's no connection | 19:35 |
| capiira | T1m0, if you plan to stay with linux and wlan, then buy a cheap supported wlan card. This keep the head ache away :) | 19:35 |
| ienorand | mzz: Thats exactly why we need the installation slideshow, as well as a good beginners intro-app... | 19:35 |
| challengeman | at what point should i power down and reformat and load a commercial system? | 19:35 |
| challengeman | (that will boot) | 19:35 |
| T1m0 | hehe thanks for the tip @capiira | 19:36 |
| neskat | what sort of wlan card isn't suppored? | 19:36 |
| neskat | *supported | 19:36 |
| usser | neskat, intel 3945, 4965 | 19:36 |
| T1m0 | well i don't know if my wlan card is supported because today is my first day with ubuntu | 19:36 |
| helder | hi | 19:36 |
| helder | i have xubuntu | 19:36 |
| sacarlson | all wlan should be supported but I like athose (bad speller) | 19:36 |
| lastman | T1m0, strange, I cant see all access points of my neighbours :-) | 19:37 |
| helder | im download ubuntu-desktop now. after i use this can i delete xubuntu? | 19:37 |
| lastman | can | 19:37 |
| neskat | usser: pretty sure mine worked out the box | 19:37 |
| sacarlson | madwifi is cool | 19:37 |
| tnt996 | hello | 19:37 |
| dan | how do I add another encryption key to my keyring? | 19:37 |
| mzz | ienorand: it's especially painful with things like proprietary drivers (results of running the installer script for one of those as root are usually not desirable) | 19:37 |
| usser | neskat, yea theres a entire list | 19:37 |
| T1m0 | where do you see it @lastman | 19:37 |
| usser | !wireless | neskat | 19:37 |
| ubottu | neskat: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs | 19:37 |
| ienorand | lastman: that is your neighbours's problem :) | 19:37 |
| Terces_ | no I haven't | 19:38 |
| capiira | T1m0, if you open the terminal and type: lspci, what does it say about your wlan card? | 19:38 |
| helder | i have xubuntu, im downloadind ubuntu-desktop now. after i install it, how can i set ubuntu-desktop as default and delete xubuntu? | 19:38 |
| challengeman | am i visible here, or do i need to register | 19:38 |
| T1m0 | wait | 19:38 |
| T1m0 | i typed in iwconfig | 19:38 |
| T1m0 | and there was no ath0 | 19:38 |
| challengeman | is there a better room for noobs trying to install linux? | 19:38 |
| lastman | Just a left click on the network symbols lists all access points with the signal strength | 19:38 |
| mak89 | hi | 19:38 |
| thiebaude | challengeman: this is the ubuntu support channel | 19:39 |
| capiira | challengeman, choose the channel from the distribution you're running | 19:39 |
| ross_ | what is the command to check the current version of ubuntu | 19:39 |
| mak89 | hey any body used code blocks | 19:39 |
| ross_ | what do i put in the terminal | 19:39 |
| T1m0 | @capiira will back in 5 minutes then i can tell it | 19:39 |
| usser | mak89, yes | 19:40 |
| caimlas | hi; I'm having an issue with xset (to set keyboard rate); when I run it, I get the following error (and the keyboard rate remains very slow, using the awesome window manager): Xlib: extension "XFree86-Misc" missing on display ":0.0". | 19:40 |
| usser | ross_, lsb_release -a | 19:40 |
| caimlas | this is in 9.04 | 19:40 |
| rconan | hey guys... the new ubuntu detects my network as 100Mb instead of 1Gb anyone know the reason for this? Can I override it somehow | 19:40 |
| challengeman | capiira: i was running 8.10, but 9.04 upgrade crashed | 19:40 |
| rconan | ? | 19:40 |
| ienorand | mzz: Yea, true, sometimes things do come with a nice uninstaller, but as often not they don't... Also problem is everyone who's learned to use non-standard install since that's the only thing that worked before... | 19:40 |
| challengeman | now i have nothing | 19:40 |
| helder | anyone pls ? | 19:40 |
| capiira | did you try a fresh install after that crash ? | 19:41 |
| helder | i have xubuntu, im downloadind ubuntu-desktop now. after i install it, how can i set ubuntu-desktop as default and delete xubuntu? | 19:41 |
| Dr_Willis | helder: if you are that hurting for disk space yes.. but i doubt if you save much drive space | 19:41 |
| mzz | ienorand: exactly. Short intro boiling down to "Don't run installers as root if you can possibly avoid it" would be good, imho. | 19:41 |
| cowbud | http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/releasenotes/904 <- wow, is there a link to something positive about the release? Like what was added? | 19:41 |
| caimlas | helder, you don't need to delete them, but doing an aptitude remove xubuntu-desktop should do the trick. | 19:41 |
| nmvictor | <helder>yup,whats your prob dude? | 19:41 |
| helder | Dr_Willis, is it only the disk space? i thought i should clean it :) | 19:41 |
| caimlas | helder, those are just meta packages though; it's not goign to make a difference in 'experience' | 19:42 |
| helder | thank you caimlas | 19:42 |
| Dr_Willis | helder: it dosent matter much. | 19:42 |
| challengeman | capiira: now, i would prefer to keep my files/settings? | 19:42 |
| challengeman | if i can | 19:42 |
| mzz | (when migrating my mother to ubuntu I tried to emphasize she shouldn't enter her password except for a handful of known good reasons (pretty much just for the update manager actually)) | 19:42 |
| HelpMePlease | hi | 19:42 |
| challengeman | by crash -- i don't mean hardware failure | 19:42 |
| helder | caimlas, will i be using ubuntu or xubuntu after that? | 19:42 |
| caimlas | helder, linux filesystems don't get noticably slower as they get larger. | 19:42 |
| helder | oh, ok tx | 19:42 |
| caimlas | helder, the only difference is the window manager and a couple artificial things (like boot logo) | 19:42 |
| ienorand | mzz: Well, a basic pointer that most software is in this fancy thing called "repositories"... | 19:42 |
| mzz | and that, yes | 19:43 |
| Dr_Willis | whats the point of a big hard drive.. if you dont fill it up! :) | 19:43 |
| helder | ok, allready download it and installed it, i have to log off now | 19:43 |
| helder | right | 19:43 |

| caimlas | TurtlePie, for my problem? | 19:44 |
| dan | how do I add another encryption key to my keyring? | 19:44 |
| ross_ | usser: thank you | 19:44 |
| TurtlePie | HelpMePlease, do you not want to install Ununtu? | 19:44 |
| gartral | anyone know what would happen if i made a ext4 partition on a flash-drive? | 19:44 |

| ichat | question : i have 9 200gb disks for a file-server like system, how do i best set it all up should i just the (physical disk as raid) option or should i better use LVM - or ?????? - | 19:45 |
| challengeman | capiira: but i have to get on the computer -- how can i copy home -- i can't boot/ | 19:45 |
| caimlas | TurtlePie, oh, re: meta packages? no, that applies to all desktop environments. | 19:45 |
| TurtlePie | oh, idk, i,ve nevere had that problem | 19:45 |
| capiira | use the live CD | 19:45 |
| TurtlePie | it doesnt look good for Ubuntus sake though | 19:45 |
| caimlas | TurtlePie, ubuntu is a steaming pile of sludge. | 19:45 |
| neskat | !danger | 19:45 |
| ubottu | DO NOT RUN THAT COMMAND That particular command is DANGEROUS and shouldn't be uttered here. REST OF YOU: DANGER, WILL ROBINSON, DANGER! Do not use the command or utter it here thank you! | 19:45 |
| Dr_Willis | ichat: whats scary.. is ya could replace all 9 of those with like 2 hard drives now a days. :) | 19:45 |
| nmvictor | helder:easy dude,if you have xubuntu installed and you want to rid off it,just delete the partition in which it lies using gparted which should be in live CD or the installer | 19:45 |
| TurtlePie | caimlas, i wouldnt say that, what do you mean? | 19:46 |
| capiira | challengeman, use the live cd, mount your partition and copy it to a usb stick or so | 19:46 |
| caimlas | TurtlePie, getting really irritated with all these 'breaks' in new releases (or for that matter, long after release). | 19:46 |
| Dr_Willis | ichat: you can use raid+lvm. but ive never done so. I tend to keep the disks seperate.. but ive never had 9 of them; ) my tops was 6 in one machine | 19:46 |
| TurtlePie | Ubuntu is a free open source OS with probably more users than any other open source OS ever!!!! | 19:46 |
| deany | will sudo /etc/init.d/alsa-utils reset , reset the volume settings to default? | 19:46 |
| dan | encryption keyring...anyone? | 19:46 |
| gartral | !who| neskat | 19:46 |

| ActionParsnip | yo yo yo | 19:46 |
| challengeman | capiira: o.k. so live cd will help -- but right now i the boot is hung on * Reloading system log daemon | 19:46 |
| usser | !refund | 19:46 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about refund | 19:46 |
| thiebaude | yo to you | 19:46 |
| ichat | lol - true, but - 2 500gb disks are usually slow compared to raid, - prob is just that i dont know how to set things up with the installer | 19:46 |
| challengeman | is there a way to move past this? | 19:47 |
| AmBAr | how to recovery a .tar file deleted ???? | 19:47 |
| TurtlePie | caimlas, do you not like Ubuntu? | 19:47 |
| grkblood13 | since i never solved this issue: | 19:47 |
| grkblood13 | im having a kvm issue, whenever i boot my pc up through the kvm i get a max resolution of 800x600, if i boot it up directly to the pc it gets my tpyical 1680x1024. IF i boot up connected to the pc i can then disconnect and go through the kvm and I will still get the 1680x1024 resolution but if I reboot it will go back to 800x600. how do i fix this? | 19:47 |
| Dr_Willis | ichat: ive had so much hassle with raids in the past. i dont use them any mopre.. but this is my Home LAN :) | 19:47 |
| dabadan | hey, i just installed ubuntu from cd, how can i find out if its the final 9.4 or the RC1 i burned some weeks before :) | 19:47 |
| gartral | anyone know what would happen if i made a ext4 partition on a flash-drive? | 19:47 |
| caimlas | TurtlePie, usually not after a new release, no. | 19:47 |
| nmvictor | <AmBAr>depends with how you deleted it? | 19:47 |
| Dr_Willis | dabadan: update/upgrade, and it will be final./ | 19:47 |
| grkblood13 | some1 mentioned 915resolution but that doesnt seem to want to install | 19:47 |
| TurtlePie | caimlas, do you like Ubuntu 7 or 8 then? | 19:48 |
| capiira | challengeman, dunno but try crtl+c :) maybe this helps. sometimes it works | 19:48 |
| caimlas | TurtlePie, I tell myself "oh, maybe this one will be different! I'm hearing good things!" but all of that is lies. invariably, something is broken with the release in an existential way. | 19:48 |
| caimlas | TurtlePie, I liked 6 and 7 | 19:48 |
| TurtlePie | and furthermore, why are you here if you dont like it; camlas | 19:48 |
| AmBAr | nmpribeiro, I use de gzip command and its delete the original .tar file and the .gz file is corrupted | 19:48 |
| mzz | gartral: it'd work (although there may be better options if you don't need anything but linux to mount it) | 19:48 |
| TurtlePie | what is broken caimlas? | 19:48 |
| neskat | caimlas: usually easy to fix though | 19:48 |
| caimlas | TurtlePie, I like the later releases to an extent. there are just a lot of little irritations wrt things working. | 19:49 |
| AmBAr | nmvictor, I use de gzip command and its delete the original .tar file and the .gz file is corrupted | 19:49 |

| eggy_ | Hello, I have a HP Pavilion dv6000 laptop, which has an audio card (00:1b.0 Audio device: Intel Corporation 82801I (ICH9 Family) HD Audio Controller (rev 03)) that's not working with ubuntu 9.04. I tried several things, like putting extra lines in /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf according to bug reports, and compiling my own alsa modules with a patch (section C of https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Gutsy_Intel_HD_Audio_Controller). But with the patch I get a comp | 19:49 |
| dabadan | Dr_Willis, so its ok to do that? not like in windows where you always should to "clean/fresh" installations? - iam asking cuz i just installed linux, i could reinstall :) | 19:49 |
| eggy_ | Humm, did I get cut off? | 19:49 |

| capiira | ok then it does not work | 19:49 |
| DJones | tdn: I think its #ubuntu-server | 19:49 |
| mzz | gartral: specifically the journal area of the fs gets written to a lot, which might wear down the flash more quickly. There are filesystems specifically targetting flash that reduce this by using the entire disk roughly equally. | 19:49 |
| caimlas | TurtlePie, Xlib: extension "XFree86-Misc" missing on display ":0.0". <-- occurs when I use xset. | 19:49 |

| rconan | anyone know why my network card is being configured as a 100MB/s one? lshw -C network shows speed=100MB/s under configuration... is that an argument to the kernel module loading? | 19:50 |
| eggy_ | I'm not sure how to get my audio card to work anymore | 19:50 |
| challengeman | i had a lot of data/etc set up -- i really hate to go through the pain of a fresh install | 19:50 |
| mzz | gartral: if you don't want people to read the data off it if they have physical access to the disk you need to encrypt the data (or the whole disk). No filesystem-level tricks will save you. | 19:50 |
| TurtlePie | caimlas, thats part of the open source feel, you should be ued to it, and have you ever instlaled fedora, it is full of those little problems | 19:50 |

| nmvictor | <AmBAr>Im not sure if you can recover it,if that was happenning at the terminal,then any file deleted with a command at the terminal is completely unrecoverable,unless their other commands to recover it which i don't know,try google.sorry dude. | 19:51 |
| challengeman | capiira: so rebooting i guess | 19:52 |
| caimlas | TurtlePie, ubuntu devs are getting sloppy (and so are the kernel devs). this "rolling release" nonsense is starting to result in some really crappy code. | 19:52 |
| mzz | gartral: whichever you like. If only linux needs to be able to read it ext4 is fine, although you'd want encryption (of important files or the entire partition) on top of that, and I don't have firsthand experience with that | 19:52 |
| challengeman | maybe i'll try a safe boot | 19:52 |
| TurtlePie | caimlas, no worrys, you should fix the bug a be part of the bug squad etc........... | 19:52 |
| grkblood13 | im having a kvm issue, whenever i boot my pc up through the kvm i get a max resolution of 800x600, if i boot it up directly to the pc it gets my tpyical 1680x1024. IF i boot up connected to the pc i can then disconnect and go through the kvm and I will still get the 1680x1024 resolution but if I reboot it will go back to 800x600. how do i fix this? | 19:52 |

| caimlas | cryptosteve, yeah. how about describing the problem? | 19:54 |
| cryptosteve | getting a black screen with script on it. | 19:54 |
| caimlas | AmBAr, what's the problem? | 19:54 |

| AmBAr | caimlas, , I use de gzip command and its delete the original .tar file and the .gz file is corrupted | 19:55 |
| caimlas | AmBAr, what kind of filesystem? ext*? | 19:55 |
| Zeroyez | I can delete the driver from xorg's conf but segfaults happen everywhere after | 19:55 |

| cptblood | hmm, ive got an aus f9s laptop, with an nvidia 8400gm gfx card, but when i install the 185.13 drivers, i get some error about failed to initialize nvidia kernel module, do i need other drivers for it? | 19:57 |
| lordmetroid | galvanize, turn off compiz | 19:57 |
| amseidler | Can anyone help? | 19:57 |
| LadyNikon | jelly12gen: youw ant to remove root? | 19:57 |
| austin__ | hello? | 19:57 |
| neskat | jelly12gen: you need sudo to do that | 19:57 |
| LadyNikon | amseidler: ask your question | 19:57 |
| caimlas | galvanize, dont use gnome. | 19:57 |
| mello | Today is, KUbuntu 9.04 installed | 19:57 |
| AmBAr | caimlas, I will try it now | 19:57 |
| mello | perfect work | 19:57 |
| challengeman | can't do anything except reboot i guess | 19:57 |
| austin__ | is there anyone here who understands cron well? | 19:57 |
| mello | any problem | 19:57 |
| amseidler | When I put in my flash drive, it does not appear on the desktop. I use Cruzer Micro drive, so there are two drives in one. The second drive appears, but I can't store anything on it. Can anyone help? | 19:58 |
| neskat | jelly12gen: in fact, I don't even know if thats possible while you're logged in | 19:58 |
| challengeman | so i can't get any troubleshooting to fix this | 19:58 |
| galvanize | lordmetroid: and by that you mean, no affects selected? | 19:58 |
| nmvictor | <AmBAr>This things happen,i also accidentally emptied my flash disk the other day,with all my notes and mp3s,just thanked God it was'nt the windows partition,co I executed the sudo rm -rf command after I had cd to /media.Calls for max care,dont you think? | 19:58 |
| cryptosteve | When try to reboot or shutdown I go to a black script screen. The last line of script reads [ 738.847946 --- [ end trace d6937d3b5e8e2a6f] --- and then freezes? | 19:58 |
| LadyNikon | challengeman: i would say be patient maybe someone can ask you. or try the forums | 19:58 |
| caimlas | cptblood, maybe? why don't you try the other drivers? are the 185.13 drivers the 'recommended' drivers? | 19:58 |
| challengeman | google on stuck on blinking cursor | 19:58 |
| galvanize | caimlas: tried kde but found it a bit buggy and slow | 19:58 |
| cptblood | i've tried 180.51 too | 19:58 |
| jelly12gen | now my pc is broken , i wont start again | 19:58 |
| lordmetroid | galvanize, yes you can do that, I went one step further and deleted all things compiz from my system using the package-manager | 19:58 |
| cptblood | but i was thinking if there are drivers specific for laptops | 19:58 |
| austin__ | anyone who knows cron well? | 19:58 |
| challengeman | isn't there a way to get to a command prompt? | 19:58 |
| challengeman | shell? | 19:58 |
| caimlas | cryptosteve, that's a backtrace of a crash. hold shift and hit PageUp - you want the line or two before the "backtrace" line. | 19:59 |
| LadyNikon | austin__: why not just ask your cron question | 19:59 |
| AmBAr | caimlas, the result of this command is that the file is not a .tar file | 19:59 |
| galvanize | lordmetroid: ah ok, thanks | 19:59 |
| LadyNikon | challengeman: a few ways. | 19:59 |
| AmBAr | nmvictor, Yes :( max care for now | 19:59 |
| austin__ | um, well I have a specific script which is running fine from the command line but doesn't from cron | 19:59 |
| lordmetroid | galvanize, you can also turn off font postrendering effects such as hinting and sub pixel rendering | 19:59 |
| caimlas | galvanize, yeah, it is. why not try xfce? it's functionally similar to gnome but it's not nearly as bloated/slow. | 19:59 |
| LadyNikon | challengeman: application > accessories > terminal | 19:59 |
| LadyNikon | or ctrl f2 | 19:59 |
| austin__ | I can post the script(s) here | 19:59 |
| challengeman | LadyNikon: thanks | 19:59 |
| Linuz2009 | i WANT to make my computer to run faster | 19:59 |
| challengeman | wait -- i am not booting | 19:59 |
| amseidler | Will someone please answer me? | 19:59 |
| caimlas | cptblood, lots of stuff going on here; it'd be useful to refer to the person you're talking w/ so I don't have to read the whole buffer | 19:59 |
| usser | austin__, pastebin it | 19:59 |

| galvanize | austin: i recommend codepad | 20:02 |
| ActionParsnip | Linuz2009: just like XP and vista are releases of windows | 20:02 |
| lordmetroid | galvanize, If that is still not enough for your needs, maybe it would be worth considering and alternate manager such as for instance xfce, personally I didn't notice much difference | 20:02 |
| Linuz2009 | so you mean I can download it directly from add/remove application. | 20:02 |
| slayton | oh wait never mind | 20:02 |
| lordmetroid | I did however not bide my time and really test out xfce | 20:02 |
| slayton | it isnt' | 20:02 |

| ubottu | MHz128: 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. | 20:28 |

| sebsebseb | chemistry: Fireworks CS4 may not work at all in Wine, or it needs some configuring, however there are also good native Linux graphics programs, and you could run it in a Windows virtual machine | 20:32 |
| Graloth | usser: np, trying again now :) | 20:32 |
| sebsebseb | chemistry: as long as you got enough RAM, which I expect you do | 20:32 |
| jahin | so whats the name of the package | 20:32 |

| WhoNeedszzz | Hey all | 20:33 |

| chemistry | sebsebseb: could i run it in VirtualBox? | 20:33 |
| albacker | ibuclaw, update manager = synaptic ? | 20:33 |
| Agion | probably some compiz error | 20:33 |
| sebsebseb | chemistry: how much RAM you got? | 20:33 |
| sebsebseb | chemistry: why do you want Fireworks so badly? | 20:33 |
| ibuclaw | albacker, no ... System->Administration->Update Manager | 20:33 |
| === Splappy_ is now known as Splappy | ||
| WhoNeedszzz | I installed a gtk theme in System->Preferences->Appearance and it said it installed correctly, but it isn't showing up in the list. Where is it? | 20:33 |

| VCoolio | WhoNeedszzz: maybe it's not a complete theme but eg only window borders; choose one of the themes, press customize and check the tabs for your new theme | 20:35 |
| WhoNeedszzz | ah | 20:35 |
| lstarnes | gartral: it wouldn't be officially supported by ubuntu | 20:35 |

| sebsebseb | chemistry: ok and I hope you start using native Linux apps :) | 20:37 |
| skapism | lstarnes: linux 2.6.30-1.1, for example | 20:37 |
| WhoNeedszzz | VCoolio: Thanks, that was it | 20:37 |
| sebsebseb | chemistry: instead of WIndows apps in Wine or virtual machine | 20:37 |
| chemistry | I'll try | 20:37 |
| ActionParsnip | Esde: no, if the driver came down in a package then yes, you must recompile each time you upgrade the kernel | 20:37 |
| skapism | lstarnes: karmic still have the jaunty version | 20:37 |
| chemistry | :) | 20:37 |
| LadyNikon | whats the trigger to have the bot message you? | 20:37 |
| LadyNikon | askbot or something | 20:38 |
| Esde | ActionParsnip, you mean "redo" the same steps right? | 20:38 |
| * LadyNikon checks the topic | 20:38 | |
| sebsebseb | !bot | LadyNikon | 20:38 |
| ubottu | LadyNikon: 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 | 20:38 |
| sebsebseb | uh | 20:38 |
| lstarnes | LadyNikon: just open a query with /query ubottu | 20:38 |
| skapism | in fact, none of the packages appearing on karmic-changes list is in the repositories | 20:38 |
| sebsebseb | !bot > LadyNikon | 20:38 |
| ubottu | LadyNikon, please see my private message | 20:38 |
| ActionParsnip | Esde: the upgrade system has no knowledge that you compiled a module, nor does it care as you will create a new folder for the new kernel modules | 20:38 |
| lstarnes | skapism: try asking in #ubuntu+1 | 20:38 |
| ActionParsnip | Esde: you need to recompile to get a module in the new folder | 20:38 |
| sebsebseb | LadyNikon: or click the bots name when you see it being used here | 20:38 |
| lstarnes | skapism: what version of ubuntu are you using? | 20:38 |
| skapism | jaunty | 20:38 |
| sebsebseb | LadyNikon: or join #ubuntu-bots | 20:38 |
| eidoslinux | i need some help, 9.04 will not see or mount my SD card | 20:38 |
| lstarnes | skapism: and are you using jaunty's repos? | 20:39 |
| LadyNikon | sebsebseb: clicking on it wouldnt work.. since i use irssi.. but i get your point ^.^ | 20:39 |
| skapism | I'm just going to packages.ubuntu.com and looking for a specific packages. I have not yet switched to the karmic repositories | 20:39 |
| Esde | ActionParsnip: in order of what i did, i wgot the driver tarball, tarred it, then cd to the dir, then made, sudo make install, then modprobe. then restarted. | 20:39 |

| Linuz2009 | in computer term | 20:39 |
| skapism | -a | 20:39 |
| LadyNikon | wot the bots have their own channel.. cool | 20:39 |
| sebsebseb | Linuz2009: don't think it's anything | 20:39 |
| JohnMacane | Hi there someone there knows how to install this correct http://www.gnome-look.org/content/show.php/Slickness+for+GnoMenu?content=98168 ? | 20:39 |
| lstarnes | skapism: just stick with the jaunty repos | 20:39 |
| sebsebseb | LadyNikon: yeah and there's the best bot in there to | 20:39 |
| sebsebseb | !best | 20:39 |
| ubottu | 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. | 20:39 |
| skapism | lstarnes: nah, I can afford to trash this installation :) | 20:39 |
| gartral | lstarnes: the restricted drivers thing didnt show any, he said | 20:39 |
| lstarnes | skapism: karmic has only been around for a couple weeks and it is still well below an alpha | 20:39 |
| ActionParsnip | Esde: i think you need to add the module name in /etc/modules, you also need to uninstall ndiswrapper which is what is currently being used | 20:40 |
| piroko | What is the recommended way to make your own ubuntu/debian package? For instance, there is a newer version of a package out, and I want it to be installed via dpkg/apt. | 20:40 |
| LadyNikon | wait | 20:40 |
| skapism | lstarnes: 've got it backed up neatly | 20:40 |
| LadyNikon | so how does a bot tell you peoples opinions? | 20:40 |
| ActionParsnip | Esde: configuration: driver=ndiswrapper latency=0 module=ndiswrapper | 20:40 |
| ibuclaw | skapism, try in a month .... | 20:40 |

| sebsebseb | LadyNikon: join #ubuntu-bots and we will continue | 20:40 |
| skapism | lstarnes: yes, I know. but I'd like a > .29 kernel for kms etc | 20:40 |
| DJones | Linuz2009: I'd guess Boot Up Manager | 20:40 |
| Esde | i have it added in /etc/modules, i think its fuse, lp, ath_pci | 20:40 |

| ibuclaw | skapism, the Ubuntu Karmic UDS is at the end of the month, so don't expect things to get busy until then. | 20:41 |
| JohnMacane | Hi there someone there knows how to install this correct http://www.gnome-look.org/content/show.php/Slickness+for+GnoMenu?content=98168 ? | 20:41 |
| lstarnes | skapism: you could compile your own kernel but that isn't supported | 20:41 |
| skapism | ibuclaw: alright | 20:41 |
| Esde | i have it added in /etc/modules, i think its fuse, lp, ath_pci ActionParsnip | 20:41 |
| DJones | Linuz2009: http://packages.ubuntu.com/jaunty/bum | 20:41 |
| skapism | lstarnes: yeah, I'll just wait for .30 to show up in karmic and then update the repos | 20:41 |
| Linuz2009 | also what's a sysv-rc-conf? | 20:41 |
| lstarnes | skapism: do not use karmic repos on jaunty | 20:41 |
| Flannel | !prevu | skapism | 20:41 |
| ubottu | skapism: prevu is an automated, personal backporting utility. Check out https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Prevu for more details | 20:41 |
| Linuz2009 | it can cancel services right? | 20:41 |

| bob_ | i'm getting the message The CUPS scheduler is not running when trying to access the default printer under preferances any help? | 20:42 |
| lstarnes | skapism: I'd personally wait for the release or the beta | 20:42 |
| skapism | lstarnes: my question was more of the sort: why do messages that appear on the karmic-changes list do not appear on packages.ubuntu.com | 20:42 |
| G-Robert | ....CTRL-ALT-F2 and then sudo apt-get install xserver-xorg-inut-all | 20:42 |

| lstarnes | skapism: someone in #ubuntu+1 might know | 20:42 |
| skapism | lstarnes: I've been on jaunty since day one, it never broke for me, so that's ok | 20:42 |
| gartral | lstarnes: the restricted drivers thing didnt show any drivers, he said | 20:43 |
| lstarnes | gartral: I saw | 20:43 |
| bob_ | i'm getting the message The CUPS scheduler is not running when trying to access the default printer under preferances any help? | 20:43 |
| lstarnes | gartral: couldn't he come here and ask on his own? | 20:43 |
| ActionParsnip | Esde: fine, just rip out ndiswrapper as its not needed | 20:43 |
| ibuclaw | skapism, also, if your CPU supports it, I recommend that you restrict all breakage testing to kvm | 20:44 |
| francis | . | 20:44 |
| ibuclaw | !kvm | skapism | 20:44 |
| ubottu | skapism: kvm is the preferred virtualization approach in Ubuntu. For more information see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/KVM | 20:44 |
| skapism | ibuclaw: yes, I use kvm | 20:44 |
| ibuclaw | it's super fast :) | 20:44 |
| skapism | ibuclaw: however, it is pretty lame if you want to get kms, isn't it? | 20:44 |

| Esde | its still listed as ndiswrapper with it uninstalled | 20:45 |
| sebsebseb | chemistry: no and what is that? | 20:45 |
| ActionParsnip | Esde: that means ndiswrapper is getting in the way | 20:45 |
| lstarnes | gartral: it would be more effieient if he asked directly though | 20:45 |
| lstarnes | gartral: and his client should highlight messages with his nick in them | 20:45 |
| ActionParsnip | Esde: you need to either rmmod ndiswrapper, or reboot | 20:45 |
| Esde | GRRR, anyway to override it and remove it ? | 20:45 |
| Esde | ok hold on | 20:45 |
| Esde | @ubuntu:~$ sudo rmmod ndiswrapper | 20:46 |
| Esde | Segmentation fault | 20:46 |
| chemistry | <sebsebseb> it lets you connect to gamespy servers(Video game lobbys) i was trying to compile it for Ubuntu 8.10 but i can't | 20:46 |

How can I see their cursor? | 20:49 |

| kay | hey guys I cant mount my volumes...what to do? | 20:49 |
| sebsebseb | chemistry: using a Windows virtual machine for one or two apps, and everything else in Ubuntu, well that sounds alright to me | 20:50 |
| ActionParsnip | kay: use the mount command, you will need sudo too as users cannot mount stuff, you will also need an empty folder to mount to | 20:50 |
| Guest21486 | my friend just installed jaunty on his computer, and he forgot the password. Where does one change the password with the live cd | 20:50 |
| KnoppixNoob | hm | 20:50 |
| Esde | ActionParsnip: i tried rmmod -f ndwiswrapper and it says it busy. | 20:50 |
| ActionParsnip | kay: sudo fdisk -l will show you the available partitions to mount | 20:50 |
| KnoppixNoob | would Ubuntu from CD help? :p | 20:50 |
| Flannel | Guest21486: It's easier to do it without the CD: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LostPassword | 20:50 |
| stealth- | is there a point to making a encrypted directory on a encrypted filesystem? Would the two clash in some way or would it just be another layer of security? | 20:51 |
| Guest21486 | Flanel: thanks | 20:51 |
| ActionParsnip | Esde: well if its uninstalled the module file doesnt exist so you kinda stuck yourself, maybe the rmmod isnt part of the uninstall process | 20:51 |
| bob_ | cups service is missing how do i get it back? | 20:51 |
| kay | oka they are listet now, whats next? | 20:51 |
| ActionParsnip | KnoppixNoob: sure, then its the same as an installed system, just useing the cd instead of hdd | 20:51 |
| ActionParsnip | !mount | kay | 20:51 |
| ubottu | kay: 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 | 20:51 |
| manpoole | I was wondering if anyone could recommend a different window manager im currently using gnome and its a fiarly fast computer | 20:52 |
| ActionParsnip | kay: then make a folder some place and use: sudo mount /dev/<partition name> /mount/point | 20:52 |
| KnoppixNoob | okay... luckily I got a working compy with WinXP :P | 20:52 |
| gartral | lstarnes: Rugani is my friend | 20:52 |

| kay | i dont want to partitioning them i just want to load fx my win partition | 20:52 |
| Esde | ActionParsnip: is there a boot time method of rmmod -f ndiswrapper | 20:52 |
| KnoppixNoob | well, I sit now ~5weeks on that fucking prob with partimage. Never had that much probs with WInXP :p | 20:53 |
| mzz | Esde: I think you're looking for the blacklist under /etc/modprobe.d (iirc, not in ubuntu currently) | 20:53 |
| ActionParsnip | Esde: well if the module is uninstalled it won't get modprobed at boot | 20:53 |
| RedSocrates | Esde: You can blacklist ndiswrapper in /etc/modprobe.conf/blacklist | 20:53 |
| Flannel | KnoppixNoob: Please mind your language. | 20:53 |
| KnoppixNoob | somehow Windows-software got a better documentary | 20:53 |
| mzz | Esde: what RedSocrates said, that is | 20:53 |
| skapism | manpoole: GNOME is a desktop environment, you're probably referring to that. in that case your major other options are KDE or XFCE. | 20:53 |
| KnoppixNoob | Flannel, sorry | 20:53 |
| Esde | just add ndiswrapper? | 20:53 |
| RedSocrates | mzz: I don't know, you could be right; I'm not in Ubuntu either :) | 20:54 |
| mzz | heh | 20:54 |
| RedSocrates | Esde: If you were editing the blacklist file, you would add a line that said "blacklist ndiswrapper" | 20:54 |
| KnoppixNoob | brb | 20:54 |
| mzz | Esde: just look at the existing entries, the syntax is pretty obvious from those | 20:54 |

| Rugani | Here's a question.... | 20:55 |
| admin_masu3701 | do i need to install antivirus and anti-malware programs in linux (ubuntu)? | 20:55 |
| Rugani | how can I get my Radeon Mobility x1400 working with the ATI drivers? | 20:55 |
| skapism | manpoole: there is also LXDE but that is not really a desktop environment per se | 20:55 |
| mzz | jamescarr: I don't remember if "source /etc/environment" is safe or not | 20:55 |
| jamescarr | admin_masu3701, no | 20:55 |
| stealth- | admin_masu3701: no, linux is pretty much immune to that stuff | 20:55 |
| mzz | jamescarr: it'll definitely only affect whatever shell you ran that command from (so not apps started through the menu after that, just things started from that terminal) | 20:55 |
| mzz | jamescarr: alternatively, log out and back in (no need to reboot) | 20:55 |
| skapism | admin_masu3701: linux has no viruses, so no | 20:55 |
| Esde | when i "sudo nano /etc/modprobe.conf/blacklist" and add ndiswrapper than ctrl+x out, i try to save and it says no file or directory. | 20:55 |
| Zyrion | viruses on Linux? | 20:55 |
| manpoole | ive tried lxde | 20:55 |

| admin_masu3701 | cool | 20:56 |
| stealth- | Zyrion: oh, lol | 20:56 |
| mzz | (and don't work all that well) | 20:56 |
| skapism | mzz: nope. the definition of a virus si something Windows-orientated so far as I understand it | 20:56 |
| RedSocrates | Esde: I think mzz was right, it's /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist | 20:56 |
| Zyrion | stealth-: I was making a funny... :) | 20:56 |

| tnt996 | Does anyone know how to setup a printer on Ubuntu? | 20:56 |
| admin_masu3701 | so hackers cant attack linux systems? | 20:56 |
| RedSocrates | Esde: You can check with ls first | 20:56 |
| Zyrion | hackers can attack a linux system, sure... but viruses don't happen | 20:57 |
| ienorand | Trying to convince people that linux can't get viruses is not a good habit... | 20:57 |
| Travis-42 | I have 4GB of ram installed, but the System Monitor only reports "2.7 GiB" memory. Is this normal? | 20:57 |
| admin_masu3701 | i see | 20:57 |
| Esde | ok RedSocrates | 20:57 |
| stealth- | admin_masu3701: they can, just not with virus's (virus's spread by themselves, hackers do a specific action to get command over a system) | 20:57 |
| skapism | admin_masu3701: they can, using exploits and security holes. but those things get patched pretty usually | 20:57 |
| bob_ | tnt996 getting any replies? | 20:57 |
| skapism | admin_masu3701: although, if you use openbsd, they can't :) | 20:57 |

| skapism | pretty quickly* | 20:57 |
| admin_masu3701 | i see | 20:57 |
| Esde | ok added. | 20:58 |
| mzz | ubottu++ | 20:58 |
| Travis-42 | ienorand: oh, the only way to use more if it would be to use 64-but ubuntu? | 20:58 |
| tnt996 | bob_: nope | 20:58 |
| Esde | RedSocrates: mzz i added it, is there a "next" step? | 20:58 |
| stealth- | is there a point to making a encrypted directory on a encrypted filesystem? Would the two clash in some way or would it just be another layer of security? | 20:58 |
| admin_masu3701 | skapism: what is opensbd? | 20:58 |
| bob_ | tnt996 getting any replies? | 20:59 |
| skapism | admin_masu3701: a unix derivative, pretty similar to linux but a bit different. | 20:59 |
| mzz | Zyrion: I've actually encountered someone on irc with a problem that turned out to be a linux virus (that got in through a dictionary root pass) | 20:59 |
| skapism | or more correctly said, linux is pretty similar to it | 20:59 |
| tnt996 | bob_ : nope | 20:59 |
| Dracofodder | hello, newly installed ubuntu, and my screen is ever so slightly shifted to the right. how do I fix that? | 20:59 |
| admin_masu3701 | ok | 20:59 |
| RedSocrates | Esde: Nope, when you reboot, that should prevent ndiswrapper from loading. You can verify by checking with lsmod | 20:59 |
| stealth- | admin_masu3701: a version of unux that only allows you to use software checked by the people who make it. THe software is checked for security for a long time until they are sure it cant be hacked before you can use it | 20:59 |
| Zyrion | mzz: no kidding? wow... | 20:59 |
| mzz | Esde: that blacklist is mainly consulted on boot, afaik. Does rmmod not work currently? | 20:59 |
| Esde | http://pastey.org/pastebin.php?show=m4362fce5 | 20:59 |
| stealth- | admin_masu3701: sorry, i meant its a version of unix | 20:59 |
| mzz | Zyrion: dictionary root pass + ssh, I should've said. So they are out there. | 21:00 |
| RedSocrates | Dracofodder: Can't just use your monitor's buttons to move the screen to the right spot? | 21:00 |
| Rugani | how do I get my Radeon Mobility x1400 working with the ATI drivers? | 21:00 |
| IndyGunFreak | Esde: whats not working, your wireless? | 21:00 |
| doktoreas | anyone got troubles with Atheros dirver and 9.04? | 21:00 |
| Dracofodder | ha.. too simple... thought maybe there was some monitor recognition setting I missed. | 21:00 |
| mzz | Zyrion: it wasn't a very good virus though, most of the binaries it infected broke. | 21:00 |
| skapism | stealth-: in fact, the most "secure" feature of obsd is that they have very few processes started automatically in the default install. you can get pretty secure with linux doing the same thing. | 21:00 |
| IndyGunFreak | doktoreas: its working fine for me.... | 21:00 |
| Mion | Rugani: use the free driver, amd have dropped support for that card in the latest driver | 21:01 |
| doktoreas | IndyGunFreak: hi mate..default installation? | 21:01 |
| Dracofodder | RedSocrates: that worked., I guess never overlook the simplest answer | 21:01 |
| RedSocrates | Dracofodder: I don't think there is. I had the same issue once, and just moved it with the monitor tools. | 21:01 |
| skapism | stealth-: especially if you don't start X | 21:01 |
| Esde | IndyGunFreak: | 21:01 |
| Esde | yes | 21:01 |
| hsinam | hi, i am using Jaunty. Can someone tell me commands to turn on and turn off dsl broadband internet connection? sudo poff dsl-provider doesnt work | 21:01 |
| IndyGunFreak | doktoreas: .. you're from GT right?... and yeah, default installation.. AR242x | 21:01 |

| skapism | tnt996: do you have hplip installed? it has a pretty neat wizard if it's an hp printer. | 21:03 |

| e1luca | UbbyCD: maybe start your application from terminal | 23:21 |
| danbhfive | Peacefull: its probably better to have Vista on the first partition... other than that, I dunno | 23:21 |
| techpops | ah well, i gave ubuntu a shot, back to the dark side of windows :) | 23:21 |
| etzerd | genii: I do not have an external CD, what's bother me the must is for the past 3 years I installed linux without any problem, why it is now. Is it something wrong with the chipset? or do I have to check the CMOS setup? | 23:21 |
| binwiederhier | did somebody already answer my question from above? my connection broke up ... | 23:21 |
| Linuz2009 | what happen if I remove mozilla firefox? | 23:21 |

| erUSUL | tnt996: Alt + f2 type gcnf-editor press run go to apps>nautilus>desktop once there untick the key named "volumes visible" | 23:22 |

| Peacefull | danbhfive, do you know any channels where I might find an answer? | 23:23 |
| UbbyCD | where can i copy paste whats going on | 23:23 |
| e1luca | h4x0r: mine it's working. glad k3b did it for you | 23:23 |
| genii | etzerd: It may be some issue in bios. If you have possible raid configs for example, it may include the chanjel which the CD is on, confusing the OS. Some bios also have "compatability" mode so that newer SATA controllers appear to the OS as regular IDE ones, etc | 23:23 |
| ienorand | !pastebin | UbbyCD | 23:23 |
| ubottu | UbbyCD: pastebin is a service to post multiple-lined texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu.com (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the channel topic) | 23:23 |
| UbbyCD | bot paste | 23:23 |

| Alex_21 | I need to figure out Fluxbox | 23:24 |
| Peacefull | Yeah, I'm kinda multi tasking google and IRC at the moment :) | 23:24 |
| genii | etzerd: Another possibility is that your system is older and the driver which once worked for the hd/cd controller has been deprecated or removed | 23:24 |
| h4x0r | but thats going to be my homework for today find the problem and i will post it later | 23:24 |

| e1luca | UbbyCD: the mp3 it's ok in rithmbox or any other player? | 23:27 |
| tnt996 | thank you erUSUL you were a great help | 23:27 |
| usser | jillsar, something like that find /dir/exes -name "*" -exec ln -s {} /usr/local/bin \; | 23:27 |
| Linuz2009 | which version of ubuntu is suitable for old computers? | 23:27 |
| UbbyCD | i know its fine in movieplayer | 23:27 |
| UbbyCD | let me try rhythmbox | 23:28 |
| usser | jillsar, its recommended that you put your own executables in /usr/local/bin instead of /usr/bin or /bin | 23:28 |
| usser | UbbyCD, so ok its using gstreamer | 23:28 |
| LordMetroid | !new york | 23:28 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about new york | 23:28 |
| etzerd | genii: my system is an Intel core 2 duo 2.6 ghz with 4 gb of ram. | 23:28 |
| UbbyCD | works ok in rhythmbox too | 23:28 |
| jillsar | usser: ok i was unaware of that. thanks. | 23:29 |
| genii | etzerd: So then more likely it's bios. Especially if previously with other Ubuntu versions it had no issue | 23:29 |
| josinalvo | hi ! could someone please provide a sample menu.lst for 9.04 ? I screwed things in here, and cant boot from the cd | 23:29 |

| UbbyCD | ? | 23:29 |
| usser | UbbyCD, make sure gstreamer0.10-plugins-bad gstreamer0.10-plugins-bad-multiverse gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly-multiverse are installed | 23:30 |
| h4x0r | thank you again. have a nice night everyone!!! | 23:30 |
| UbbyCD | i mean i want amarok fixed because i really liked it but if rhythm box can do all the same stuff then.. | 23:30 |
| usser | UbbyCD, as well as gstreamer0.10-plugins-good and gstreamer0.10-plugins-base | 23:30 |

| usser | mib_3fptm9, firestarter | 23:31 |
| LjL | !firewall | 23:31 |
| UbbyCD | im going to do that | 23:31 |
| ubottu | Ubuntu, like any other linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'ufw' command (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Uncomplicated_Firewall_ufw), or 'iptables' (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo). GUI applications such as Firestarter/Gufw (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE) also exist | 23:31 |

| ice109 | e1luca: but video is black | 23:48 |

| jken146 | UbuntuNoob: Try the first file | 23:48 |
| mattgirv | UbuntuNoo: Not with unzip, it doesnt support multiple archives iirc | 23:49 |
| Dr_Willis | UbuntuNoob: you could 'cat' them to one large file cat file* > BigFile.gz | 23:49 |
| ice109 | e1luca: all that comes up is movieplayer | 23:49 |
| bondo689 | tnt996: system>preferences>main menu | 23:49 |

| jken146 | Guest21486: It means that you see the password (if you don't tick the box you just see black circles) | 23:49 |
| usser | Dr_Willis, does the order in which it cats them matter? | 23:49 |
| myke_ | thanks for the link DASPRiD :) | 23:49 |
| Dr_Willis | usser: yes it would. | 23:49 |
| DASPRiD | myke_, np, but dont really know if it will help :) | 23:50 |
| usser | Dr_Willis, i mean is it guaranteed that cat file* would go from 0 to 9 etc? | 23:50 |
| ice109 | e1luca: yes i have gstreamer installed | 23:50 |
| e1luca | ice109: do you have software sources enabled? | 23:50 |
| myke_ | it won't hurt to try ahha | 23:50 |
| Dr_Willis | UbuntuNoob: could be they need to get gunzipped first then catted. | 23:50 |
| ice109 | yes | 23:50 |
| ice109 | e1luca: yes i put them on | 23:50 |
| ice109 | and it showed up | 23:50 |
| ice109 | e1luca: that i have gstreamer installed too | 23:50 |
| Dr_Willis | usser: try echo file* and see what order they are in. | 23:50 |
| UbbyCD | for some reason snaptic was set to remove the 'bad' plugin set is this because i installed something that takes it off? | 23:50 |

| ice109 | still no video | 23:51 |
| usser | UbbyCD, dont install anything besides good bad and ugly and multiverse variations. it should play mp3s just fine | 23:51 |
| tnt996 | Thank you everyone, BUT i would like to know how too add a link to my server in the Places menu how would i do this? | 23:51 |
| usser | UbbyCD, i think gstreamer0.10-fluendo-mp3 overrides bad | 23:51 |
| SealedWithAKiss | I have just checked my Apache2 access logs. The last time I checked they were full of entries, I have checked the log again just a minute ago and the log is completely empty. Is there anything that could have automatically cleared the logs like a manual Apache restart etc? Or do I have great reason to be suspicious? | 23:52 |
| e1luca | ice109: play from HD or over network? | 23:52 |
| UbbyCD | ok no go | 23:52 |
| ice109 | e1luca: hd | 23:52 |
| UbuntuNoob | Dr_Willis: hm, no space for that... | 23:52 |
| UbbyCD | it may be something to do with my sound card cause it appears to be a soundcard problem when i start it up | 23:52 |
| ice109 | can someone help me fix my video problem, i have codecs installed but can't see the video track in my xvid file | 23:52 |
| Dr_Willis | UbuntuNoob: what sort of file came that way anyway? | 23:52 |
| UbbyCD | the intel device 82801db-ich4 with stac-9750, (intel ..... cant see the rest.. next line "falling back to default" | 23:53 |
| UbuntuNoob | Dr_Willis: still my splitted and gziped backup from Partimage | 23:53 |
| UbbyCD | might my sound card be configured wrong for amarok2? | 23:53 |
| Dr_Willis | UbuntuNoob: check the partimage docs. they may tell ya the way to undo it.. you can proberly uncompress it with some large commandline. | 23:53 |
| UbbyCD | like earlier it works with all other stuff just not amarok2 | 23:53 |
| === quaal is now known as wal | ||
| usser | UbbyCD, shouldnt matter if other audio players work. can you play any file at all with amarok like wav or ogg | 23:54 |
| === wal is now known as kal | ||
| UbuntuNoob | Dr_Willis: I have my nose already since hours in it... | 23:54 |
| UbbyCD | well i have had weird stuff like for instance | 23:54 |
| tobi | Hey Folks... Normally while booting my internet connection should start automatically. But to get online access I have to run "sudo poff dsl-provider" first, following "sudo pon dsl-provider" ... what could be wrong ?! | 23:54 |
| === kal is now known as xal | ||
| Dr_Willis | UbuntuNoob: perhaps cat file* | gunzip | 23:54 |
| UbbyCD | when i open a mp3 up in movie player audacity not being able to play | 23:54 |
| === xal is now known as kaul | ||
| Dr_Willis | UbuntuNoob: perhaps cat file* | gunzip > bigimage | 23:54 |
| UbbyCD | after i close down movie player | 23:54 |
| === m` is now known as Troll | ||
| UbbyCD | audacity throws up playing errors but if i dont play anything in movie player im fine | 23:55 |
| UbbyCD | i had to reboot to fix the problem before | 23:55 |
| === Troll is now known as m` | ||
| usser | UbbyCD, go through settings in all your audio/video programs and set sound output to pulseaudio | 23:55 |
| UbbyCD | and it would not show my sound card settings or all of them right in the audacity options | 23:55 |
| UbuntuNoob | hm.... | 23:55 |
| usser | UbbyCD, if you're not running kubuntu that is | 23:55 |
| UbbyCD | ok | 23:55 |
| whole | Is there anyone in here that knows about whole disk encryption options for Ubuntu? | 23:56 |
| UbbyCD | because i remember in audacity i had to flub around with the sound card because i had more than one entry for intel 80morenumbershere soundcard and only 1 of them worked | 23:56 |
| UbbyCD | whats the diff / | 23:56 |
| UbuntuNoob | btw. does Partimage need a formated drive to restore the files? Or does a blank drive work, too? The FAQ is a bit confusing... | 23:56 |
| UbbyCD | is pulse audio better or worse? | 23:56 |
| tobi | UbbyCD, is it playing and there is no sound on the speakers, might be a PulseAudio thing ... | 23:56 |
| UbbyCD | also i dont see any settings in amarok 2 to change the sound options | 23:57 |
| zerothis | so, if I make a live CD partition on a USB drive using unetbootin, then xubuntu on a 2nd partition of the drive. Will both be options in grub? | 23:57 |
| UbbyCD | i found it in audacity and other programs but not amarok | 23:57 |
| usser | UbbyCD, pulseaudio allows multiple programs to play at once and lets you easily control the volume of each stream etc | 23:57 |
| UbbyCD | im pretty sure the option was in amarok 1.4 but i dont see it in amarok 2 | 23:57 |
| UbbyCD | how would i change amarok to that | 23:57 |
| jken146 | tnt996: The default file manager in Gnome (Ubuntu) | 23:57 |
| usser | UbbyCD, amarok doesnt use pulseaudio, it uses phonon which is a kde thing | 23:57 |
| opensc | hello | 23:57 |
| jken146 | Guest21486: iwconfig | 23:57 |
| jken146 | tnt996: Use Places -> Connect to Server | 23:57 |
| opensc | i'm new in xchat | 23:58 |
| UbbyCD | so i need to configure phonon? | 23:58 |
| tobi | UbbyCD, install the PulseAudio mixer, otherwise install ALSA! | 23:58 |
| whole | The only encryption option I know about for Ubuntu is Truecrypt, but unfortunalty, it doesn't support whole disk encryption for *nix, just windows.. I was hoping someone could give me a new lead. | 23:58 |
| zerothis | UbbyCD: some players don't have the option. You need to change your whole desktop in the settings to use a different soundcard and/or audo system | 23:58 |
| UbbyCD | i want good sound because i use my laptop for transcribing / arranging music | 23:58 |
| UbbyCD | is pulse audio going to degrade quality? | 23:58 |
| SealedWithAKiss | I have just checked my Apache2 access logs. The last time I checked they were full of entries, I have checked the log again just a minute ago and the log is completely empty. Is there anything that could have automatically cleared the logs like a manual Apache restart etc? Or do I have great reason to be suspicious? | 23:58 |
| UbbyCD | ok i know where that is | 23:59 |
| usser | UbbyCD, pulseaudio has been troublesome, but it works flawlessly for me on jaunty | 23:59 |
| UbbyCD | ok lemme try that.. do i need to restart the computer for changes to take effect? | 23:59 |
| Dr_Willis | SealedWithAKiss: they get 'archived' every so often look for some compressed log files.. or check out the 'watchlog' command. its handy | 23:59 |
| usser | UbbyCD, no | 23:59 |
| tobi | UbbyCD, ... the soundsettings for your soundcard won't be better with Pulse Audio ... | 23:59 |
| myke_ | damn | 23:59 |
| Dr_Willis | SealedWithAKiss: oops its logwatch :) | 23:59 |
