[00:18] also, i can't download anything [00:18] thru firefox [00:19] LjL: Can I bother you for a second? The problem I have is that I am Debian user, using Debian barebone netinstall. And the issues I have with Debian is 1)Ruby gems is locked, 2)Gnome wasn't configured properly out of scratch. Is if I install gnome and GDE(?, the login manager) from the minimal ubuntu, will it be properly configured like gnome on regular Ubuntu. [00:19] Im strating to think firefox has a majorly buggy update recently. [00:19] LjL: The prblem I have with regular ubuntu is not the GUi or stuff like that, it's the fact that it comes with ALOT of pre-installed stuff that I dont want, is there way to use regular Ubuntu cd but to scratch those off, or do I need ot use another one (not minimalist) but like server or alternative? [00:20] Iradieh: not really, if you install the gnome metapackage (as opposed to the ubuntu-desktop metapackage), a lot of the things won't be ubuntu-like === pizdets is now known as pizzledizzle [00:20] Iradieh: can't you just remove those later? [00:20] LjL: No they are locked to gnome :/ [00:20] Hello I was wondering if anyone can tell me the path to the trash foler [00:20] Iradieh: locked...?

[00:20] Iradieh: you *can* remove them. === Floops[w]2 is now known as Floops[w] [00:21] let me see then [00:21] LjL: But when trying to remove them it says I can't (from the add and remove menu) if I recall correctly. [00:21] i heard that jaunty can make "dynamic virtual machines". what does this mean? [00:21] LjL: and using synaptic it sais if removing those, it will also remove gnome-desktop [00:21] Iradieh: nonsense. it'll just say it'll also remove the ubuntu-desktop metapackage, and that is not a problem. [00:21] LjL: it's crap stuff like fax or tablet support. [00:21] !ubuntu-desktop | Iradieh [00:21] Iradieh: k/ed/x/ubuntu-desktop is a metapackage. It depends upon other packages and brings them in; you can safely remove it, but it is recommended that you re-install it when upgrading. [00:21] Ubuntu``: yes if you turn off ssid broadcast you can still connect if you know the name. [00:21] LjL: ok, so it's alright to remove those [00:22] Ubuntu``: others can still connect as well by firing up kismet and finding the ssid as well ;p [00:22] LjL: awesome, I will use regular ubuntu then. Is there a difference in whats getting installed between regular ubuntu and ubuntu-alternative? [00:22] Iradieh: no, but using the alternate cd you get other choices aside from the standard desktop. [00:22] can I get help here about installing Adobe pdf reader here [00:22] Question: How do I make my mouse more sensitive then I can set in my mouse settings? [00:22] pepperjack aha but I have WPA + AES + mac filtering.... should be enough? [00:22] hello again is kubuntu the same also as ubuntu can i install the same apps in ubuntu to kubuntu? [00:22] LjL: ok.. but can I remove stuff as well in the alternative, like not installing them (like eg: tabletsupport) ? [00:22] !kubuntu > loser (loser, see the private message from ubottu) [00:22] loser: yes [00:22] Ubuntu``: yeah id say so. :-) [00:23] pepperjack ok [00:23] thanks so much [00:23] The trash folder un .local/share/.trash is empty [00:23] Iradieh: yes, it's just a different method of installing them, no difference between alternate and live cd aside from the way they install things.

[00:46] o [00:46] yes sysdoc [00:46] Soren_: does "apt-cache policy acroread" come back as (none) for the "candidate" item? [00:47] does anyone know a commandline way to check the speed of your ddr?

[00:48] Soren_: that's a command to run. enter what's between the quotes on the command line. [00:49] holyguyver: misstyped, I guess, can you ls the file/folder ?

[00:55] psychic: if you do a really big paste, even in PM, you might flood out [00:55] psychic: but you know that now [00:55] i'm using ubuntu 9.04, i upgraded from ubuntu 8.10 my grub bootloader when i first boot up does not show the selected OS, how do i fix this ? [00:55] buggar... not 100% successful :( it did boot into X... it didn't a for a keyring password but it did ask for a network key & the audio is still buggared [00:56] http://rafb.net/p/KWuxjX15.html [00:56] that is my config. [00:56] what is wrong with it ? === efjc_ is now known as efjc [00:56] compubomb: what oses do you have installed? [00:56] thanks gordonjcp, but I actually already saw that, the description says it doesn't support sound unfortunately, I also saw fceu, which I've tried using, but it almost seems as though the key bindings are hard-coded lol (and its really slow here, I think it's trying to use palleted openGL textures, which I'm fairly certain aren't accelerated anymore) [00:57] oh well 1am here time for bed... I'll bug hunt in the morning :) have fun all [00:57] nn [00:57] DasEi1, rm: cannot remove `0620%The20%Engagement20%Party.mp3': No such file or directory [00:58] DasEi1, Same response that I got in the GUI === dereine is now known as dereine[OFF] [00:58] If I know my server is 32-bit, should I still blindly use the 64-bit installer? [00:58] holyguyver: you see the same filename by ls ? [00:58] Das yes [00:58] last week someone mentined a command that shows all samba/windows servers and shares.. a command i never knew existed.. but now i cant rember that command. anyone recall off hand what it is. was just a simple single command. [00:58] mroc, yup greg@Gateway:~$ apt-cache policy acroread [00:58] Ashfire908, uh lol [00:58] W: Unable to locate package acroread === swoody_ is now known as swoody [00:58] DasEi1, Yes [00:59] Soren_: ok. seems as though it still isn't seeing the repository. so, we're going to try something different. first, open up System=>Administration=>Software Sources and remove the Medibuntu related items. [00:59] !flood [00:59] 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) [00:59] k, brb [00:59] DasEi1, jack-desktop Jekyll and Hyde The Broadway Musical Movie # ls 06 The Engagement Party.mp3 [01:00] The main download page by default gives the 64-bit version, but I know my server is 32-bit (It's pentium III after all from 2001). [01:00] holyguyver: I think the blanks in the name are your prob [01:00] Soren_: also, under the Authentication tab, remove the Medibuntu key. [01:00] DasEi1, the file will also not let me edit it [01:00] Is it ok to ask questions about ktorrent here? [01:00] DasEi1, So I cannot rename it [01:01] hey.. so is directx 10 only in vista? [01:01] mroc, I see 2 under 3rd party, is that right? [01:01] holyguyver: what does lsattr '06 The Engagement Party.mp3' say? [01:01] It says only to use 32-bit if I know I need it, am I correct in assumeing I need the 32-bit version? [01:01] Hi! Having two issues. More important of the two is that I have enabled Remote Desktop, but the system is listening to port 5900 only for IPv6, not IPv4. Research so far implies that I need to disable IPv6. Additional research implies that to do so in 9.04 requires rebuilding the kernel. [01:01] evilaim: sure but have you checked : https://help.ubuntu.com/community/KTorrent [01:01] evilaim: detail questions aren't gonna work but sure. [01:01] Soren_: yes. [01:01] bc, it doesn't give a response at all. [01:01] mroc, done [01:02] Anyone have Ktorrent, with the auto downloader? I'd like to EXCLUDE strings, but I don't know how to do so. I want to download everything ubuntu, but exclude -headers- [01:02] holyguyver: say what? what does this say -> echo $SHELL [01:02] mroc, , it wants an Update now [01:02] bc, jack-desktop Jekyll and Hyde The Broadway Musical Movie # lsattr '06 The Engagement Party.mp3' jack-desktop Jekyll and Hyde The Broadway Musical Movie # [01:02] Soren_: ok. run the following command. adds the repository, the key, and updates. so several things all at once. "sudo wget http://www.medibuntu.org/sources.list.d/`lsb_release -cs`.list --output-document=/etc/apt/sources.list.d/medibuntu.list; sudo apt-get -q update; sudo apt-get --yes -q --allow-unauthenticated install medibuntu-keyring; sudo apt-get -q update" [01:02] rheiby: I think that there would be a way to dibalbe IPv6 via sys or proc, not posivite though. [01:03] holyguyver: man you have some weird stuff going on over there. are you in a terminal, web interface, file manager, or what? [01:03] bc, jack-desktop Jekyll and Hyde The Broadway Musical Movie # echo $SHELL /bin/bash [01:03] Soren_: you can let it update. [01:03] ok, updating [01:03] holyguyver: can you move other mp3's from that folder and do sudo rm *.mp3? [01:03] holyguyver: type `vim .` -- does that open vim and show you the files in the directory? [01:04] holyguyver: try with wildcards then [01:04] evilaim: within your filter ? [01:04] ya [01:04] has anybody dealt with sound fading out right away? i have been dealing with this all day. alsa force-reload and sound is there, but fades out.... [01:04] I'm having one hell of a time, I just got hit with about 40 files trying to download:) [01:04] VCoolio, Yes I can move & edit other mp3s in that folder [01:05] rheiby: /proc/sys/net/ipv6/conf/all/disable_ipv6 I am NOT saying this is what you should do, but that is what would disable ipv6 to my knoledge. [01:05] bc there is only one file in that directory, the one that you are seeing [01:06] holyguyver: or place a \ (forward slash) in front of any spaces [01:06] holyguyver: does `vim .` show you that file? if so, arrow over it and shift+d and see if it asks you if you want to delete it. if you're not the owner, `sudo su -m` first. [01:06] So an "echo 1 > that path"? And the preferred way to have that done at boot time? (Seems like there should be a better way to have the VNC port listened to....) [01:07] hum I not suresomething like ubuntu(.*( [01:07] whos using jaunty? [01:07] mroc, ok, it is doing stuff, heh [01:07] everybody [01:07] bc I do not know how to use vim.

[01:10] rheiby: well then keep looking (i'm running gentoo and have been for some time so I'm not up to date on ubuntu and the latest modifications that have been thrown everywhere.) [01:10] make sure you / on the 4gb ssd [01:10] holyguyver: but it is displaying %20? [01:10] !pastebin [01:10] 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) [01:10] DaveWM: do you like the netbook remix? [01:10] there's no sound on my jaunty either [01:10] apparently the 4 is faster than the other ssd [01:10] DaveWM: i've heard there were some issues with that maximus program. what's the story there?

[01:11] maximus seems fine, although i don't use it atm [01:11] bc rm -f '06 The Engagement Party.mp3' rm: cannot remove `06 The Engagement Party.mp3': Is a directory [01:11] i changed to desktop mode, still using the remix though [01:11] hi, is there an undelete equivalent for the trash can? [01:11] holyguyver: ls -la '06 The Engagement Party.mp3' [01:11] i just like a regular desktop [01:11] hey, every time I try to install a deb via gdebi, it says it cannot get a lock even though no synaptic or update manager is running. what's going on? [01:11] mroc, http://paste.ubuntu.com/165209/ [01:11] George2: you can go in to the trash can, and right click on a file and click "restore" [01:11] holyguyver: or, if you KNOW what the directory is, rm -rf '06 The Engagement Party.mp3' [01:11] yea, daveco, put / on the 4gb ssd, and /home on the other ssd if you want [01:11] holyguyver: rm -f is for files, rm -r for dirs, rm -rf for force dirs [01:11] daveco: did you see my grub config ? [01:11] http://rafb.net/p/KWuxjX15.html [01:12] Just a question - if I install the Windows 7 beta on one partition then will GRUB be deleted, or can I just boot into Parted Magic and set the boot flag back to my Ubuntu partition? [01:12] daveco: no, i emptied the trash can :( [01:12] How come I can't seem to get a samba admin GUI? [01:12] the7thmagus: are you sure no other synaptic is running ? ps -u yourusername [01:12] i don't know how to make it show the selected feature. [01:12] it has some kind of image in it as well. [01:12] DaveWM: me to, i didnt prefer NBR [01:12] cause it won't perform too well if you install to the 16gb ssd [01:12] i don't need that. [01:12] Soren_: alright. let's try the install again. sudo apt-get install acroread === Guest50483 is now known as Elite [01:12] Hi [01:12] you can just use regular jaunty desktop then i suppose, but the netbook remix seems just fine to me, i just changed modes in it [01:13] i dunno if its any lighter or anything [01:13] jp_sf: doesn't show any synaptic process here [01:13] bc I already told you the directory, the file is a directory === Elite is now known as Guest68612 [01:13] everyth‌ing worked right after install too daveco, i never had that happen before with a linux install [01:13] * Soren_ cries [01:13] heh [01:13] My screen with ubuntu 9.04 while am moving my cursor around trembles ANYONE knows whats the problem ?!?!? [01:13] bc the file became currupted & turned into a directory [01:13] holyguyver: that's a first for me. does rm -rf work? [01:13] holyguyver: that's a new one. [01:13] the7thmagus: what is the exact message : cannot get a lock on /var/lib/apt/lists/lock ? [01:14] i can't say how it'll perform for you for sure, cause i upgraded my ssd to a faster larger one [01:14] * Soren_ cries more [01:14] mroc, http://paste.ubuntu.com/165213/ [01:14] i just know you wanna use the smaller one for the OS [01:14] DaveWM, what SDD you have, and where you get it? [01:14] Again, if I install the Windows 7 beta on one partition then will GRUB be deleted, or can I just boot into Parted Magic and set the boot flag back to my Ubuntu partition? [01:14] holyguyver: please tell me you're just messing with us [01:14] hold on daveco, lemme get a link [01:14] My screen with ubuntu 9.04 while am moving my cursor around trembles ANYONE knows whats the problem ?!?!?

[01:17] Seriously, nobodygain, if I install the Windows 7 beta on one partition then will GRUB be deleted, or can I just boot into Parted Magic and set the boot flag back to my Ubuntu partition? [01:17] jp_sf: whoa, it resumed an install [01:17] oops [01:17] might just work. thanks [01:17] I clicked enter too fast [01:17] the7thmagus: yeah, wait [01:18] Seriously, nobody's helping me. Again, if I install the Windows 7 beta on one partition then will GRUB be deleted, or can I just boot into Parted Magic and set the boot flag back to my Ubuntu partition? [01:18] ANYONE WHO CAN HEMP ME HERE ? [01:18] holyguyver: try: mv '06 The Engagement Party.mp3' foo [01:18] Hey guys any ideas as to why when I installed samba there is no gui for it? [01:18] bc rm -rf '06 The Engagement Party.mp3' rm: cannot remove directory `06 The Engagement Party.mp3': No such file or directory [01:18] i.e. using the NTFS-3G driver [01:18] when I try to enable my appearance to normal effects it trys to install drivers and says failed [01:18] if I wanted to use linear algebra functions from an existing library, which would I be best served to use? libatlas? libblas? or something different alltogether? [01:18] Soren_: ah. i think i may have found the problem. seems the location of some packages changed between releases. open up the software sources list you had open before and see if the "archive.canonical.com" item(s) are checked.

Say that i wanted to make a 'script' that had the commands to apt-get update and upgrade, and then wanted to be able to execute that script with a single command, would that be called bash scripting? [01:23] Soren_: if you checked off both (and they say jaunty, not one of the earlier names), then you should be set. you should be prompted to update package information, and it should work now. [01:23] <[tv]> like start with #!(enr) [01:23] <[tv]> (etc)* [01:23] anyone know read/write speeds for mounted NTFS / how they compare to native partitions (ext2/3/xfs) [01:23] [tv]: yes, basically [01:23] Gourlis: you might have issues mentioned in the release notes for 9.04, specifically intel gpu's sem to suffer, not sure [01:23] Hi guys! I'm getting weird cron segfault messages in the log. Tried googling - no relevant results. I don't have anything specific in the files yet. Just what came with the system.

If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) [01:23] <[tv]> okay gordonjcp, and the commands inside a script are different than they are for the shell? [01:23] my firefox and often pidgin freezes and goes gray [01:23] The massage is: "May 5 19:20:01 srv-app-04 kernel: [261623.458831] cron[21232]: segfault at 23fffffff0 ip 00007fb311330a7a sp 00007fff1ab3aab0 error 4 in libtalloc.so.1.2.0[7fb31132b000+8000]" [01:24] glitsj16, my laptop has AMD Turion 64 with ATI Radeon graphics card.

It only shows "Today" or some other date, but not time [01:27] Soren_: ok. we need to change one thing. "intrepid" refers to the last version of ubuntu. we want that to say jaunty, so we're going to edit those lines. if you select the archive.canonical.com lines (one at a time) and choose edit, you'll get a window that pops up. on the "distribution" line, you want to change it from "intrepid" to "jaunty". otherwise, we'll be looking in the wrong place for the package we want.

[01:28] [tv];how do i fix this? [01:29] DasEi1, ah, very interesting ok, good to know :) [01:29] .

[01:39] <[tv]> ash26x: and if this is your first time setting up a dual boot, trust me, youre going to be alot better off if you have windows installed first, not saying you cant learn, its totally worthwhile it know most of the ways to do it, but youre going to end up tearing out alot less of your hair with windows on there first, i think [01:40] DasEi1: thanks! [01:40] bc: did you try reseting the terminal? [01:40] naw [01:40] Ashfire908, it is NTFS [01:40] i've done truiple boots before [01:40] Ashfire908: yessir [01:40] but i'm about to install news windows 7 RC [01:40] felix_: We do not support gnewsense in #ubuntu.

[01:41] <[tv]> you mean like degraded harddrive? [01:41] and i've never done it backwards [01:41] jsut wanted to know [01:41] mkasson: in terms of security the problem with proftpd or vsftpd is FTP [01:41] holyguyver: I'm giving up on the NTFS, I don't know any gotchas there (if there are any) [01:41] in case i install one before the other [01:41] Ashfire908: no [01:41] jp_sf, hehe hear ya. one better than the other? [01:41] holyguyver: have a windows install, too ? [01:42] <[tv]> im so used to backing up systems and data, stuff like that, that its almost easier always for me to just do complete reinstalls [01:42] DasEi1, no I do not [01:42] bc: then you didn't check if the mount was using ntfs-3g driver and not ntfs? [01:42] Ashfire908: nope [01:42] DasEi1, I have not had Windows since 2003 [01:42] holyguyver: run mount [01:42] holyguyver: might ask in ##windows for a vista-live cd, then run fs-check on it [01:42] mkasson: I would say a good install of vsftpd would do it, it seems to me proftpd is easier to setup [01:42] DasEi1, As said I do not own a Windows system [01:43] holyguyver: why do you use ntfs then ? [01:43] holyguyver: a live cd needs no install [01:43] lalalaa. [01:43] Hello Everybody! I have just purchased a Dell Inspiron 15 from best buy, and wish to install 9.04 on it. Will it run it with the out of the box configuration? [01:43] jp_sf, k, thx [01:43] DasEi1, Just in case I have to take my external harddrive to anyone elses house or computer & if they are using Windoes, that way it can read it. [01:43] <[tv]> plus a clean OS install is like when you get a 70$ car wash and you have that new car smell and no crusty cupholders and nice clean un-crooked floormats [01:43] holyguyver: fat32. [01:43] how do you start firefox in safemode [01:43] ? [01:44] Dell will probably work OOTB Parker. [01:44] mroc, it worked, THANKS, do I need to change back the archive things to Intrepid?????// [01:44] My Acer even did. [01:44] <[tv]> oh forgive me, ill stop spamming this channel with random self ramblings, bbl [01:44] holyguyver: there are small win tools to read ext [01:44] It seems that, as of a recent update, flashplugin-installer no longer respects /etc/alternatives/firefox-flashplugin. It's also no longer symlinking the plugin into /usr/lib/firefox/plugins. [01:44] Dell has good hardware for Linux. [01:44] can someone tell me what is different compile kernel from kernel.org and git ubuntu ? [01:44] This is problematic, since I have two versions of the plugin installed, and can no longer select which firefox will use. [01:44] what happened, and where is ff looking for the plugin now? [01:44] holyguyver: ntfs is a pain. for portablity, fat32 wins. Almost everything knows fat32. [01:45] clearly not in /usr/lib/firefox/plugins, seeing as how it still finds flash absent a symlink in that directory [01:45] DasEi1, But if I want to be able to have any random windows PC be able to read it without being able to install anything then those tools are not the salution [01:45] Ashfire908, I often use file names too long for FAT32. [01:45] jaggerjack_: from the command line, run "firefox -safe-mode" [01:45] Thanks, gymophett, Also with A 64 Bit processor (intel core2 duo), I need to downloadthe 64 bit version, right? (the 'AMD' inthe title confused me [01:46] Ashfire908, Also this ecternal is over a tarabite. [01:46] holyguyver: yo, but can't use the whole disk-mainting soft of linux then [01:46] thanks mpontillo [01:46] Well yeah Parker, you do. 64-bit = 64-bit OS. :D [01:46] good luck! [01:46] Thanks. [01:46] what the heck... [01:46] holyguyver: oh. [01:47] still having the same problem, Firefox times out and won't load web sites [01:47] you can choose to use the 32 bit OS [01:47] it'll work fine [01:47] Ashfire908, so you can see why I made the file system choice I made :( [01:47] but 64 bit is the way to go === Haru{Midterm} is now known as Harujai [01:47] is aptitude installed in bare minamal systemm [01:48] holyguyver: personally I would have shot myself. what do you use the drive for? [01:48] 64 would be recommended. [01:48] Ashfire908, archival [01:48] Anyone know why my internet connection times out on certain applications but not others? [01:49] holyguyver: why then are you jumping the drive from system to system? [01:49] hello everybody, can someone tell me what is different compile kernel source from kernel.org and git ubuntu ? [01:49] jaggerjack_: did you specify a proxy for them which is not running atm? [01:49] holyguyver: btw hook it up to a windows system and disk check it. [01:49] no [01:49] Ashfire908, in case I need to share the archive with a friend or else if my system died & I need to access the files from someone elses computer. [01:49] I am new to ubuntu so everythings is pretty much standard [01:50] Soren_: great! you're welcome, i'm glad it worked. you don't need to change it back. intrepid was the last release, so keeping it as jaunty, the distribution you're currently using, will keep things up to date properly. [01:50] Ashfire908, I do not have access the a windows system at my house. [01:50] Ashfire908, I only have one computer & it has been Linux for the past 6 years. [01:51] holyguyver: are you using the ntfs-3g driver or ntfs? [01:51] Here is my situation, I mentioned this earlier I am connected to this IRC server right now, but when I try to retrieve emails with thunderbird, connect to sites through firefox or log into pidgen nothing connects [01:51] it all times out [01:51] Ashfire908, ntfs-3g [01:51] holyguyver: alright. so you got read-write access? [01:52] Yes [01:52] One more question, How would I completely boot ubuntu (wihout dual-booting with vista)! [01:52] holyguyver: try linux-based disk check for ntfs? [01:52] Parker: Just override the Vista partition and make it so it's Linux [01:52] Parker: you dualboot now ? [01:52] yo guys, is there drivers for the xbox 360 controllers? [01:52] TonyTheTiger: Yep. [01:52] Is it possible to use TrueCrypt to encrypt an entire disk (or at least everything except /boot and a few other necessary files), and have Ubuntu prompt for the password on boot? [01:53] Ashfire908, I have already told you the issue, the disk is fine, but the file was retrieved from a badly damaged disk, so the file is badly currupted. [01:53] Ashfire908, How can I install it, do you know the terminal commands? [01:53] TonyTheTiger: you new to linux? [01:53] Going to be sharing 1TB worth of data across a dualboot windows/linux. Is it better to have this using NTFS w/linux mounting through NTFS-3G or ext3 and having windows mount through Ext2 IFS [01:53] etotheipi: tc still doesn't do that for ubu, but can use alternate installer for that [01:53] Ashfire908, the salution is to move everything over to one of my other eternals & then reformat the harddrive :) [01:53] holyguyver: yes but the disk check should check it and find it's corrupted and do somthing about it. [01:53] no, I just got a new laptop(dell Inspiron 15 laptop from best buy) and wish to install ubuntu as the onlyOS [01:54] no, turns out I'm just a moron [01:54] It's kind of a relief, actually [01:54] familiar state of affairs [01:54] Ashfire908, Not quite, but the guide im looking at seems dated and needs me to compile and build the driver which i havent done before and dont like the sound of. [01:54] Parker: so choose whole disk at ubu install [01:54] Ashfire908, There is nothign that can repaire it exept a reformat [01:54] whelmed, i'm no expert but i thought the only 100% shared support file system was FAT32? [01:54] Parker, run the Ubuntu installer and tell the partitioner to use the whole disk [01:54] holyguyver: have you TRIED disk check? [01:54] is there a way off adding "copy to" to the context menu of nautilus? [01:54] plcTowlie, there is a newish NTFS driver that supports writing (NTFS-3G it's called) [01:54] holyguyver: btw "disk check" means file system check. [01:55] mroc, ty again.............and is that why my sound is not working even though Ubuntu thinks the speakers are playing sounds? [01:55] Ashfire908, Yes [01:55] jaggerjack_: can you pastebin the output of "nm-tool"? [01:55] Alright Thanks! [01:55] TonyTheTiger: yea, uh what happens when you plug in the controller? and is it wireless? [01:55] whelmed1, oh ya, of course that works :) and i've never experuienced a problem, but its not 100% official [01:55] I am not sure how to do that mpontillo [01:55] !pastebin [01:55] 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) [01:55] holyguyver: sorry but windows disk check of linux? [01:55] oh [01:55] ok [01:55] holyguyver: *or [01:55] Soren_: no idea if sound is related or not. probably not. did sound work at one point and then stop, or has it never worked? [01:56] i actually had another thing to ask [01:56] Ashfire908, I do not own a Windows machien, I have already told you that!!!!! [01:56] plcTowlie: Yeah, that's the thing... data security is quite important to me which is why I'm a bit nervous [01:56] Ashfire908, nothing so far, the lights on my controller (wired arcade stick) just flash on and off. [01:56] vidd you still here [01:56] whenever i start ubuntu, i get this message that my home.drc is being ignored, and that it should have 644 permissions, but ive set it to have 644 permissions, and for some reason it keeps coming up [01:56] DasEi1: I already have 9.04 installed; will Ubuntu be able to copy everything from the existing installation? [01:56] whelmed1: I hear you, i personally wouldnt be nervous about it, but like i said, i'm not an expert and i'm certainly not dealing with critical data [01:56] could anybody guide me to a good how to guide to setup a email server [01:56] TonyTheTiger: that *might* be normal. One moment let me grab mine. === __guest is now known as bitfish [01:57] hi.. [01:57] Ashfire908, I have not owned a Windows machine in 6 years, I have not even touched a friend's one in 3 years [01:57] holyguyver: ok then either try a window disk check (take it to a friend's house or somthing) or do what you said and copy everything away and etc. [01:57] can somebody tell me how can i log on in a server.. [01:57] plz [01:57] holyguyver: whats wrong with windows [01:57] mroc, it has never worked [01:58] actually nevermind, not the forum for that discussion [01:58] etotheipi: I lost the context.. copy from where to what ? [01:58] nigtv, ask Richard M Stallman that question. [01:58] anyone else getting the win 7 RC? [01:58] thanks, i will [01:58] holyguyver: well then... get reacquainted... [01:58] how can I make programs autostart in gnome? [01:58] plcTowlie: You spend 3 years doing experiments and gathering this size of data and you'll get paranoid :) I have backups all over the place but it's hard to backup 1TB worth of data religiously [01:58] .......... [01:58] TonyTheTiger: yea sorry getting it now. [01:58] Ashfire908, Get reaquanted with what? [01:58] DasEi1: I have 9.04 already installed, but I'd like to use the alternate install CD to reconfigure everything to use an encrypted main disk. Does that mean I'll have to do a fresh install? [01:58] mpontillo I pm'ed it to you cause its a lot of stuff [01:59] Soren_: my knowledge of sound isn't very extensive, so forgive me if the things i suggest are quite simple and have been tried. have you opened up the volume control panel and gone to preferences to see if the right device is selected? [01:59] holyguyver i have been using for 10 years no windows i like it better [01:59] etotheipi: yes, all data will be lost [01:59] TimReichhart: Do you have any particular email server in mind? [01:59] i think that the error message that my home.dmrc file in being ignored has something to do with me getting rid of a user that i had on here, but i cant for the life of me figure out how to make it stop coming up, ive fixed permissions and everything [01:59] Darklegion: Please don't do that. ask you're question on one line and someone will try to answer. [01:59] im not sure how to make it not ignore that file [01:59] steaktg- : system > preferences > sessions [01:59] after i install the ubuntu recommended nvidia driver i have problems viewing program icons in wine how can i solve this? [01:59] holyguyver: windows... [01:59] DasEi1: ah, that's unfortunate. I can see how the data *could* be stored, and then copied over, and then everything merged... but it's a bit of a programming chore. Thanks.

I have been using Linux for the past 6 years without Windows, so I am not asking why people choose Linux over Windows, I am not a Windows user. [02:00] Ashfire908, I wouldn't dare touch that operating system not unless my computer died. [02:00] neither am i [02:00] well I want to stick with the one that comes with ubuntu server setup cd there frenzy [02:00] how do I install java 1.4.2 in 8.10? [02:00] mroc, it is ok, I will try back later, ty again [02:00] smaug91: i dont suppose its in the repos? [02:00] holyguyver: then have your friend touch it... really get over it. not like you are going to be usiing it forever... [02:00] Soren_: welcome. [02:01] mroc, I can only stand so much of this before I needto kill [02:01] i have been using linux for 10 years no windows [02:01] TonyTheTiger: uh unplug the controller [02:01] Ashfire908, Richard M Stallman is a God [02:01] GNU/Linux :D [02:01] Ashfire908, ok. [02:01] i installed jaunty last night and my fonts seem a bit blurry... is there any way to clean that up? i havent really found anything on google [02:01] holyguyver: I don't give a crap who richard M stallman is [02:01] i have been using linux for 2 years, and have been using windows my whole life, as well as mac, i dont see what the problem is with using an operating system thats not free, plus its good to be versed in other os's [02:02] customer I& I have been using Linux for 6 years no windows [02:02] nigtv: haven't checked, assumed that it's a newer version. 1.4.2 is old [02:02] Ashfire908, He is the founder of GNU without which Linux wouldn't matter. [02:02] astralsin: gnome? [02:02] TonyTheTiger: open the system log viewer. [02:02] bc: yup [02:02] nigtv: couldn't find it in synaptic [02:02] smaug91: well, give me one sec, lit me see if i can find a source package on the net, thats probably your best bet [02:02] holyguyver: i figured that. here: you use ntfs, the windows fs. there. you've been using windows. get over it. [02:03] astralsin: right click desktop, 'change desktop background', click on fonts tab and you'll see the font settings. you might have too much antialiasing for your taste [02:03] how can I make programs autostart in gnome? [02:03] Ive been having an issue with my jaunty pc freezing only on cold starts. This is a new issue after an upgrade to Jaunty. It seems to freeze during booting right after the lights on USB devices flash off (mouse and keyboard). In a normal start they turn back on and boot continues. When a freeze happens, the screen simply stays black. [02:03] Okay, so I upgraded to Jaunty a few days ago, and I had no problems, until today. My wireless connection/card has simply stopped working. [02:03] if I was going to make a partition for ubuntu to hold all 'nix software (multiple display managers, openoffice, all the goodies), how much space should I set aside? 50GB? 100GB? [02:03] Ashfire908, You mean the log file viewer? [02:03] smaug91: you are aware that its probably not in support cycle anymore, right? [02:03] bc: i'll give that a try, didn't see anything about antialiasing last night but then again, i wasn't looking for it [02:03] 1 [02:03] Ashfire908, No I do not use Windows, I merly use their file system for compatability just in case I have to ever access my data through a computer that does run Windows.

[02:04] holyguyver: well now you have to. [02:04] how do I change directory to a folder with a space in the name? 'cd the folder' [02:04] astralsin: using a font like Lucida Grande might also help [02:04] TonyTheTiger: find the log for the kernel. [02:05] Ashfire908, No I do not! I can as I said move the files to one of my other external tarabite hardrives & then reformat this one & move the files back! [02:05] Can anyone help me? [02:05] MaT-dg, either cd "folder with space" or cd folder\ with\ space [02:05] Ashfire908, looking at kern.log [02:05] holyguyver: ohhhkaaayy.... knock yourself out. [02:05] TonyTheTiger: plug in the controller [02:06] Ashfire908, Go jump off a cliff! good bye [02:06] EdgEy: ok, thats it, thx :) [02:06] TimReichhart: Check www.howtoforge.com. Trying to find the how-to that I used. [02:06] does http://67.181.238.156 work for anyone else? [02:06] That was as dumb as "no I don't like ford i refuse to ride in my friend's ford at all." [02:07] bc: that'll do it, thankee [02:07] Ashfire908, Done, and maybe itd be a better idea to chat in seperate window. [02:07] TonyTheTiger: what comes up in the window, pastebin it. [02:07] is there a way off adding "copy to" to the context menu of nautilus? [02:07] TonyTheTiger: if you want to, pm me. [02:07] it works here [02:08] DG19075, was that for me? [02:08] does changing the group permission of a folder require sudo rights? [02:08] BlackCoffee: Nautilus has a scripting feature/directory of user makeable scripts.. so its proberly sort of doable.

What should the size be for a 4 min movie, approximately? [02:10] mdg: lol [02:11] mdg: but do you know if there is a mac irc? [02:11] jeffreyf1 - well, I'm a little confused. I'm setting up an rsync script... the -g switch will retain the group permissions, and -p keeps the octal permissions... and -g and -p DO NOT require root priviledges. Yet -o (keeps owner) does require sudo rights. That's why I'm confused, by keeping -o does but -g and -p don't need sudo. [02:11] desmond, you mean an irc client for osx ? [02:11] nigtv: me too. thanks for looking! [02:11] ls [02:11] apt-get install ms-office97 [02:11] desmond: Let met check the ubuntu apple forum and see if the IRC channel is up.

[02:12] nigtv: ill be here [02:12] im all coffee'd, so no is not an answer, btw [02:12] nigtv: preciate it [02:12] jeffreyf1 - right, but how come my rsync script can get away WITHOUT sudo to keep permissions and groups, but not owner? [02:12] DragonLinux: mdg: i know there is ubuntu-ppa but is there like a #ubuntu-mactel or somthing [02:13] i have ubuntu/osx setup on a dual boot, is it possible to run the osx partition in some sort of virtual machine?

The combination Alt+SysRq+K can also be used to obtain a similar effect. [02:23] get that [02:24] mdg: waht do you mean no flash? [02:24] Edgey, where will that file end up?

[02:43] riz0n: ask a more specific question, please [02:43] pilif12p: That would be more a question for the developers or someone on the forums [02:43] for instance the antivirus AVAST I couldn't find in the package manager so I find it on their web pge and it gives an option tar or .rpm [02:44] xisorshadow_: thats odd.. you could try manually installing the nvidia-glx packages for that card you may want the '180' version of the drivers [02:44] Okay [02:44] bye [02:44] riz0n: if your looking to set up a backup server, google is your friend [02:44] mdg: anytime :) [02:44] no i do not need a back up server [02:44] When i change my display settings with the nvidia tool and click 'Save to X configuration file' i receive the following error 'Unable to create new X config backup file' has anyone seen that before and know how to fix it?

[02:47] me [02:48] any word on the 2.6.28 dmraid issue? [02:48] ok it finished installing the nvidia driver package with apt, how do i configure X to use that driver? [02:48] I'm having trouble uninstalling 9.04, and I'm worried that just deleting the "C:\Ubuntu\" folder in Windows will screw something up, does anyone know a better alternative way to uninstall? [02:48] thanks, gksu worked, gksudo did not, any reason that is?? [02:49] goose: make a partition.........don't use wubi [02:49] eww wubi sucks [02:49] xangua whats wrong with wubi?

[02:49] goose: if you used wubi then go to add and quit programs and just delete it, that doesn't work ¿¿ [02:49] mattgyver: different commands. sometimes people forget the names. sudo is a commonly used command with a similar effect, so people might get confused [02:49] it doesnt run inside windows tidux, it boots separately [02:49] xangua, I get an uninstall error \o/ [02:49] from system startup, windows doesnt even load [02:50] oh okay, thanks ill keep that in mind [02:50] mattgyver: np [02:50] Would it be possible for me to revert back to the e1000e (100?) version driver for my NIC that was in Hardy?

USB wifi card to update your system and set repositories back to older driver? [02:51] and i'm currently on said computer under a live 8.10 [02:51] Is there a graphical way of downloading and applying an apt repo key?

[02:53] goose: now it makes the router flash and twinkle around [02:53] Name141, no idea, sorry [02:53] goose: and never connects [02:53] Thanks. Second question. Using Ubuntu, is there a way to set up a Windows Domain (Similar to Active Directory) [02:53] goose, you can edit the windowse bootloader from within windows, and remove the entry for ubuntu entirely [02:53] and safely delete the folder [02:53] xangua, I think you misunderstand. I'm looking for a graphical equivalent to sudo apt-key adv --recv-keys --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com \ [02:53] riz0n: I think it can be done with samba [02:53] god damn this is an overcrowded channel [02:54] xisorshadow_, can you walk me through this/hint me through this, please?

[02:54] depends what version of windows you have goose [02:54] surely you will find an answer [02:54] goose: I guess I "could" get a new NIC [02:54] xisorshadow_, vista [02:54] goose, one moment please [02:54] Name141, you may just need an update :p [02:54] riz0n, openldap but it doesnt support group policies only authentication [02:54] sharperguy: gpgkeys can do that i believe [02:55] oh [02:55] goose: well how ... am I gonna get it? lol [02:55] sandeep [02:55] i am not worried about group policies up front [02:55] but i do want to set up a windows domain [02:55] Name141, carefully :p [02:55] sharperguy: https://help.launchpad.net/Packaging/PPA#keys?action=show&redirect=PPAKeys [02:55] and the linux server actually be a domain controller [02:55] Name141, got an external enclosure for your HDD?

[02:55] when I look in my system monitor I keep seeing a process that takes no memory and is always sleeping, but the PID keeps climbing and it is a root process, what could it be and since it has no name how can I find out? [02:55] Not that I really need to, but I just want to experiment.................. And sorry about the multiple lines [02:55] glitsj16, VCoolio thanks [02:55] goose: http://hardware4linux.info/component/34798/ [02:56] goose are you in vista right now? [02:56] phirestalker, kill it and see what happens? :p [02:56] xisorshadow_, yes [02:56] to update using the terminal i use 'sudo apt-get update', though this will then link me to the update manager. is there way to update solely using the terminal? [02:56] <[vali]> phirestalker, name of the process ? [02:56] go to your system properties in control panel, a shortcut would be windows key + pause [02:56] goose: I can't, I'm not fast enough, it keeps closing and opening [02:56] galvanize: that whould work [02:56] goose; I don't guess that page helps much? [02:56] galvanize, that's a strange problem, "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade" always runs solely in terminal for me [02:56] then youll go to advanced settings on the left [02:56] vali: it has no name on system monitor [02:56] Name141, I haven't looked at it yet [02:56] click settings next to startup and recovery [02:57] riz0n, if you want windows domain, better go with windows server, seriously its not worth it [02:57] goose: it is strange, never did it until i think hardy heron [02:57] <[vali]> galvanize, there are some text-mode "GUI's"... aptitude, dselect... [02:57] make sure the default operating system is vista, and uncheck the box for time to display list of operating systems [02:57] <[vali]> but apt-get update should be textmode only [02:57] I have a man page from http://marginalhacks.com/Hacks/scurvy/, can someone tell me how to install it? [02:57] it SHOULD be safe to delete the ubuntu folder after that, if you were in XP you could physically edit the bootloader file, but im not sure where that file exists on vista [02:58] goose: ok, it shows that e1000, and e1000e is "supposed" to make it work in 8.04 (and it does) [02:58] [vali]: what do you mean by this? [02:58] xisorshadow_, thank you kind sir [02:58] is it possible that it could even be normal behavior or does it have to be something that keeps failing? [02:58] give it a try, if it doesnt work, you can restore your bootup using a vista install disc [02:59] by booting from your vista disk and choosing system recovery from the first menu [02:59] xisorshadow_, folder deleted without issue, time to try and install the normal way! [02:59] I can't seem to get DAAP sharing to work in rhythmbox, the plugin is installed and the daap service is installed and running, but the 'sharing' tab is missing -- any ideas? [02:59] <[vali]> with a bare "apt-get update" you shouldnt need X in any way. If you want some kind of program with a fancy interface and a list of packages to install, etc, you can use some of the textmode guis [02:59] good luck, i cant help you there [02:59] im new to linux, but windows i know [03:00] [vali]: just want to update in the terminal. [03:00] is there a way to make it so the settings i set in nvidia x server settings stay when i reboot? i made it save to /home/digitalfiz/xorg.conf but i still have to set the settings everytime i restart [03:00] digitalfiz: save it in /etc <: [03:00] digitalfiz, run the nvidia-config with sudo and save to /etc/xorg.conf [03:01] Im sick to type passwords, everytime i run SUDO or any command, how to get ride of that?

Everything seemed to go fine, but when I restarted ubuntu the screen froze (it showed the kubuntu logo, but when it went to the desktop, the screen froze and looked all garbled). I tried rebooting in recovery... [03:36] bobo: what's yours? [03:36] ...mode, but that showed no errors and still froze at the same point. Which file do I edit to change the default environment back to gnome (I googled)? I've got a live dvd so I can access the linux drive and edit files.

Here are the details: http://paste.ubuntu.com/165256/ [03:38] <[vali]> dan: can you try with a different ethernet card? [03:38] and see the problem I think is cuz I downloaded this outdated script to set nautilus as the default and I think it did some stupid stuff [03:38] it is my first time but i like it [03:39] customer, I stopped using it because I thought Openbox was much better. I'd suggest you try that. [03:39] bobo: do you use 9.04? [03:39] yeah [03:39] xangua: GTK 2.x themes ? [03:39] will try it [03:39] how to stop cdrom?

[03:53] usser: the screen freezes before I get to the logon prompt. :( [03:53] <[vali]> admin_masu3701, lol, i just checked and dont have sound if FF either [03:53] AutoMatriX, eog, gnome's built in picture viewer can save in different formats [03:53] bobo /query nickname [03:54] imagemagick is in command-e only, I suppose ? [03:54] /query rocko [03:54] <[vali]> time to fix things !!! [03:54] bobo: /query === seyfarth_ is now known as seyfarth [03:54] great usser [03:54] yansky, oh, its like that [03:54] [vali]: you dont have sound at all? or just with flash? [03:54] ok khensthoth - I'll give that a try - catch everybody later [03:55] thanks [03:55] yansky, boot into live cd, sudo fdisk -l to list your partitions, sudo mount /dev/sda[number] /mnt. chroot /mnt sudo apt-get remove --purge kdm && sudo apt-get autoremove [03:55] <[vali]> just tried with flash [03:55] yansky, that should get rid of most things kde [03:55] <[vali]> it works with kaffeine, so I have sound :D [03:56] Ok, I've spent all day (well a few hours anyway) trying to get the Epson Stylus NX400 all in one to work as a scanner under ubuntu. no dice, even with latest sane ver 1.0.20, so the question comes down to two things 1) would attempting to install the windows components under wine be worth the time, or should I 2) go find an all-in-one that has better linux compatability? [03:56] [vali], did you install libflashsupport package? [03:56] usser: Thanks a bunch usser. I'll give it a go. :) [03:56] <[vali]> usser, doning this right now ;) [03:56] [vali]: do you use hardy/8.04 ¿¿ [03:56] <[vali]> and voila ! sound [03:56] usser, are you sure about EOG ? [03:57] does it need a plugin ? [03:57] <[vali]> fixed ^^ [03:57] [vali], flashplugin-nonfree-extasound they keep renaming them, oh nvm === `dan is now known as dan [03:57] AutoMatriX, last i checked it did [03:57] AutoMatriX, hang on [03:57] <[vali]> Im FAST !!! XDDD [03:58] <[vali]> admin_masu3701, I just installed flashplugin-nonfree-extrasound [03:58] usser, thanks, I'm hanging ;) [03:59] AutoMatriX, hm, well it does save in different formats no gif for some reason [03:59] is XMMS no longer available for ubuntu? [03:59] AutoMatriX, weird.... === someone is now known as Guest56385 [03:59] tecky: try xmms2 ? [03:59] Dracofodder: though this is for priters, did you try the deb from http://www.openprinting.org/show_printer.cgi?recnum=Epson-Stylus_NX400 ? [03:59] usser, that means I may de-hang myself ? [03:59] doleyb: hrm ... looking at Sshots it looks different? [03:59] is there a way to stop an auto mounted device from showing up on the desktop? [03:59] i threw in a spare lan card [04:00] AutoMatriX, hehe [04:00] doesnt seem to be doing anythign at all now === bojan is now known as SeveredCross [04:00] DasEi: no, I didn't try that... the printer portion works OK, it just doesn't recognize the scanner part. I'll go check that out now though and see if it has anything that will help. [04:00] usser, thanks for permission, my hed was geting a bit weird, purplish [04:01] tecky: Well xmms has many possible skins, it might have a different default than you're used to. [04:01] tecky, xmms2 or audacious. Both are forks, since xmms seems to have been abandoned. [04:01] <[vali]> usser, AutoMatriX, keep in mind that gif have (or had?) patent issues, no is tecnically a "non-free" format (or was?) [04:02] [vali]: Yeah gif patent expired like 1989 [04:02] [vali]: -extrasound? will that solve the issue? [04:02] AutoMatriX, im no imagemagick expert but convert file.png file.gif seems to work [04:02] AutoMatriX, try that [04:02] <[vali]> dan: if the new card works... try using the old one in a different slot (if it is not integrated) [04:03] FREE CHICKEN MEAL http://www.oprah.com/article/oprahshow/20090430-tows-kfc-coupon-download [04:03] <[vali]> sometimes a bit of dust can provoke weird things XD [04:03] tx usser I'll try :) [04:03] usser, without hanging on that f|#¼ cable :D if you permit [04:03] AutoMatriX, yep thats pretty much how you do it. http://www.imagemagick.org/script/convert.php [04:03] AutoMatriX, sure. no problem :) [04:04] does anyone know how to use ./bootstrap? I cannot seem to find it [04:04] <[vali]> admin_masu3701, flashplugin-installer flashplugin-nonfree flashplugin-nonfree-extrasound -> only installed these packages and got sound after restarting FF [04:04] When I type sudo apt-get update I get debian/sid files, not ubuntu ones... checked lists... [04:04] Gnea: hey so that bloody laptop you were so kind in helping me with was getting me mad. so i decided that i will just install it on my Desk top [04:05] and it converts libs... [04:05] hey, here's something I'm not sure how to check... apt-cache showpkg sane, show sane ver 10.0.14, whereas I just compiled 10.0.20. I suspect its just the list of apt known items, but isn't there way to 1) see what ver is really installed, and 2) update the apt cache to indicate the reality of the system? Or even for me to confirm that "yes" I really did get the 10.0.20 installed I thought I did. [04:05] [vali] i think i have flashpugin-installer, flashplug-nonfree installed [04:05] <[vali]> then you "need" the last one [04:05] Severian: which would you go with? I was a long time user of XMMS [04:05] [vali]: how do i get flshplugin-nonfree-extrasound? [04:06] bobo: I've a package for you [04:06] Severian: It looks like XMMS2 is a bland version of xmms? [04:06] <[vali]> apt-get [04:06] audacious looks a lot like xmms tecky [04:06] tecky, xmms2 doesnt have any gui its just a sound server [04:06] tecky: xmms2 is more of a client/server thing. :) [04:06] is the right room to ask an ubuntu install question? [04:06] tecky, I like Audacious better. But, either is fine. Audacious forked earlier and has been worked on longer. [04:06] <[vali]> admin_masu3701, I installed it using apt-get, so it actually is in the repos [04:06] Hey, I'm getting a GEOS error in my apache error_log. Anybody seen this before? http://dpaste.com/41339/ [04:07] dajas1: What question do you have? [04:07] usser, Severian ty bolth [04:07] [vali]: so sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree-extrasoun ? [04:07] after installing i can shutdown and then start, but i cannot restart [04:07] Hi.. Since you're talking about media players.. [04:07] does anyone know how to use ./bootstrap? I cannot seem to find it [04:07] <[vali]> but keep in mind my $HOME have a LOT of mess around. Been using the same partition since 4 or 5 years ago... Should work, but sometimes the thing that works are some "lost" files of some ancient intallation [04:07] does anyone know if amarok 2 still supports mysql? [04:07] dajas1: What happens when you restart? [04:08] grub never starts, it just hangs there [04:08] serral: I think that mysql is ALL amarok2 will use... no other DBs [04:08] <[vali]> admin_masu3701, sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree-extrasound [04:08] by default is sqlite [04:08] Is there an alternative to samba for file sharing across hetrogenous environments ? [04:08] but I do have a "medium" mp3 colletion [04:08] dajas1: Too technical for me. Maybe someone else could help. Sorry. [04:08] and it gets quite slow... [04:08] <[vali]> mantis_, ftp, NFS... [04:09] <[vali]> but ftp are quite different XD [04:09] hello does anyone here have a logitech g11 kb? and has gotten the g1-g18 keys integrated? [04:09] [vali]: i get: E: Couldn't find package flashplugin-nonfree-extrasound [04:09] i've posted on the forums no one seems to know [04:10] so what packege to i install for the Cube desk workspaces? [04:10] i get weird "softreset" errors on all drives on boot as well, i suspect it's somehow related [04:10] or how do i enable it [04:10] [vali]: I'm looking for something that can be used by non-tech users, and can be configured to be passwordless. FTP is too much hassle for non-techies. But I haven't heard of NFS. I'll look into that. [04:10] usser, works perfect, I owe you a sixpack [04:10] <[vali]> admin_masu3701, I think the package is in the multiverse [04:11] <[vali]> mantis_, use samba... [04:11] what is the current recommended file system for ubuntu [04:11] [vali]: I've been trying to set it up since gutsy, and I've had very limited success. [04:11] AutoMatriX, no problem, any time [04:11] updates yesterday killed my networking and wireless networking... Any Ideas? Please respond with all_is_fair first [04:12] [vali]: so how to get the multiverse? [04:12] <[vali]> mantis_, if you want an "easy and dirt" way to share things, just change the sharing method to "share" instead "user" and it should work [04:12] vali: http://au.archive.ubuntu.com jaunty/multiverse flashplugin-nonfree-extrasound 0.0.svn2431-3 (Jaunty) [04:12] <[vali]> but keep in mind you dont have fancy authentication things. It will work like the simple XP shares [04:12] updates yesterday killed my networking and wireless networking... Any Ideas? Please respond with all_is_fair first [04:13] [vali]: I keep seeing that advice on forums and such. But no matter how I configure samba, I can't get that method to work. [04:13] digdeep: so add that link? [04:13] all_is_fair: Ubuntu version, network card brand? [04:13] <[vali]> admin_masu3701, use synaptic, and in "settings" (or configuration) you can see an option to activate additional repositories [04:14] [vali]: and I've been trying for nearly a year now. [04:14] all_is_fair: output from ifconfig ? [04:14] ubuntu 9. Broadcom I believe it's an hp 2175US model labtop [04:14] I think I want to backup my whole system and reformat using a different filesystem [04:14] <[vali]> mantis_, can you paste the smb.conf in some pastebin? (dont paste passwords if you have some) :P [04:14] I'm positive it was right after yesterdays updates [04:14] are there any guides or howto on that [04:15] mantis_, I see you are trying to setup a network share. Do you want the directory to be on the Linux machine or the Windows one? [04:15] [vali]: will do. Thanks for the assistance. Pasting shortly... [04:15] Severian, dont be like clippy :P [04:15] Severian: The share is from an ubuntu box. [04:16] does anyone uses 19'' vertical monitor? I would like to know what is the best resolution to use??? [04:16] mantis_, Maybe someone else has helped you. I can give you what I use. I share it to windows, mac and linux machines. [04:16] anybody read engadget about ubuntu today? [04:16] lucascarvalho, that depends on the model, which one is native to your monitor? [04:17] usser: 1440x900 [04:17] Severian: that'd be cool if I could look at your conf. I'm about to paste mine to a pastebin for [vali] to look at. [04:17] <_duncan> Any experianced wine / ubuntu 9/04 people in here? [04:17] lucascarvalho, so thats the one then [04:17] usser: but is quite ugle when you have it on vertical position [04:17] usser: in the normal (hoziontal) position it is perfect [04:17] lucascarvalho, oh when you flip it? i've never done that [04:17] Shuttleworth should pay some companies to write software that is only available for windows into ubuntu [04:17] usser: but when I use rotate 'ccw' on my xorg to rotate 90 [04:18] usser: it becomes quite ugly [04:18] _duncan [04:18] lucascarvalho, play with xrandr [04:18] lucascarvalho, see what looks better [04:18] _duncan what are you trying to run with wine? [04:18] <_duncan> all_is_fair: I am getting a int myInt = (int) myFloat; [04:18] <_duncan> Whoops [04:18] mantis, I'll make a file and paste it I want to leave a couple of details of mine private, but I'll give you the important pieces. I'll be back in a moment and give you the url. [04:18] usser: do you know how to play with xrandr? I heard about [04:19] _duncan did you install the restrictive libraries? [04:19] <_duncan> all_is_fair: I copied the disc to the desktop, then try to do wine Installer.exe and it fails with module not found. [04:19] lucascarvalho, xrandr --output LVDS --mode 1280x800 [04:19] Severian: thanks [04:19] lucascarvalho, for example, man xrandr for more options [04:19] Xlib: extension "RANDR" missing on display ":0.0" [04:19] <_duncan> all_is_fair: What do you mean? I installed the nvidia drivers from the website and they are working if that is what you mean. [04:20] [vali]: Severian: My conf is at: http://pastebin.com/m1dfcbf32 [04:20] _duncan you shouldn't have to copy the disk... the installer will accomplish that [04:20] lucascarvalho, type xrandr to get the name of your --ouput [04:20] $ xrandr [04:20] Xlib: extension "RANDR" missing on display ":0.0". [04:20] RandR extension missing [04:20] _duncan Wine doesn't work right without the restrictive libraries === ABC is now known as ZhouYu [04:20] <_duncan> all_is_fair: How do I install them then? [04:20] lucascarvalho, hm, are you using some sort of proprietary driver, ati, nvidia? [04:21] usser: nvidia [04:21] <_duncan> all_is_fair: Hardware Drivers? [04:21] [vali]: Severian: Corrected paste: http://pastebin.com/m21897c4 [04:21] _duncan you need to change your source to include the backports and such [04:21] lucascarvalho, yea nvidia uses their own util which im not familiar with [04:21] <[vali]> ok, will take a look [04:21] usser: I imagined that [04:21] can i make 9.04 look like Mac Leopard? [04:21] _duncan hold a sec [04:21] <_duncan> link? [04:21] i asked this b4 [04:21] usser: thank you, i just have to found the good resolution [04:21] usser: everything else is OK [04:22] <[vali]> mantis_, you MUST encrypt passwords, otherwise it will not work at all (unless you use W95) [04:23] hello everyone [04:23] _duncan click "System" then "Administration" Then "Software sources" [04:23] <_duncan> ok [04:23] [vali]: i got an error message when reloading [04:23] commander_: Information is for Intrepid, but I assume it doesn't differ much: http://maketecheasier.com/turn-your-ubuntu-intrepid-into-mac-osx-leopard/2009/01/08 [04:23] can anyone provide me the links where i can download the ebooks of Ubuntu certified professional [04:24] please help [04:24] ok so i replaced the network card with one that i know works [04:24] _duncan you have to make sure the restrictive and backports are clicked [04:24] the problem is still happening [04:24] i was able to use the internet from one computer [04:24] and then upon connecting to the network on another computer [04:24] the server refused all incoming connections [04:24] can anyone provide me the links where i can download the ebooks of Ubuntu certified professional [04:25] _duncan Then click on "Applications" then "Add/Remove" Make sure you search for "ALL AVAILABLE PROGRAMS" [04:25] <_duncan> all_is_fair: ok then what package do I understand [04:25] <_duncan> i install** [04:25] khensthoth i got intrepid now [04:25] _duncan Search for "Ubuntu" You'll then see the Ubuntu Restrictive Package....

[04:40] [vali]: is this the rignt link? deb http://de.archive.ubuntu.com jaunty/multiverse flashplugin-nonfree-extrasound 0.0.svn2431-3 (Jaunty) [04:40] all_is_fair: output from ifconfig ? === Jim is now known as Guest64470 [04:41] any help? [04:41] I can't enable compiz. Where do I start? [04:41] dan: did you try disabling iptables ? I don't know your lan [04:41] <[vali]> admin_masu3701, ??? are you using that in sources.list ? [04:41] a while back I upgraded to OO3, but I just learned that Base was not part of the install and now I have a project that requires it. How do I install just Base on Ubuntu 8.10? [04:41] iptables is what makes the internet work at all... [04:42] its my router === Jim is now known as Guest1225 [04:42] http://www.mibbit.com/pb/y2nLFf [04:42] admin_masu3701: try to add "deb http://au.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ jaunty multiverse" to /etc/apt/sources.list [04:42] _DasEi try that [04:42] <[vali]> dan: I dont see anything wrong in that iptables (just a couple of superflous lines) [04:42] [vali]: in sofware sources [04:43] JOIN [04:43] yeah, it was working before on my gentoo server [04:43] unfortunately the hard drive on that computer died a couple months ago [04:43] http://www.mibbit.com/pb/UBmJJ1 [04:43] and i had this one ready to go as a backup [04:43] dan: iptables handles connections on the running machine, fw-rules are defined there [04:43] <[vali]> admin_masu3701, that will not work. you dont have to put "flasplugin...." in the sources [04:43] admin_masu3701: + that link (I posted) won't work (I should clarify :-D) [04:44] [vali] oh ok [04:44] dan: what is in your lan ? [04:44] digdeep: which one wont work? [04:44] _DasEI Did that help? [04:44] anybody know how to mess with gdm? no matter what session I pick it goes to gnome [04:44] <[vali]> admin_masu3701, you need to tell apt-get where to get the list of the packages... once you fetch the list, the package will appear in synaptic (if it is in any of the repos) [04:45] admin_masu3701: this won't work --> digdeep: did is what i have..deb http://de.archive.ubuntu.com jaunty/multiverse flashplugin-nonfree-extrasound 0.0.svn2431-3 (Jaunty) [04:45] DasEi: right, but this is running on my router - the ip masquerading is what allows the rest of my house to have internet [04:45] or not have internet, as the case here [04:45] [vali]; so add deb http://de.archive.ubuntu.com jaunty/multiverse to source.list? [04:45] all_is_fair: yo, though almost missed (nick) ; you connect directly to modem by dialup on the cable ? [04:45] <[vali]> yes [04:46] dan: so connection to the inet works, but no ics to the further machines ? [04:46] admin_masu3701: yes [04:46] _DasEi I'm using my Motorolla V3xx to connect to the internet right now, but I was using my wireless Broadcom card in my laptop [04:46] hi ppl [04:47] no everything works sometimes [04:47] [vali]: restarted samba. ensureed that user 'nobody' can access my shared folder. From my remote ubuntu laptop, I am still asked for a password. When I enter nothing, I get the message 'failed to retrieve share list'. From my windows machine, I cannot see the shares under "my network shares" [04:47] can anybody help an extreme newbie please? [04:47] <[vali]> DasEi, he said the thing works ok until they use another computer in the inner network [04:47] !ask | RavindraRao [04:47] RavindraRao: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line, so others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) [04:47] [vali]: now do : sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree-extrasound?? [04:47] but when i add a new computer to the network, what seems to happen is it gets an ip from the dhcp server and then the server just refuses any incoming connections from my lan [04:47] for about 20 minutes [04:47] Ok any one got a pointer to how to get wow working on ubuntu? === prefrontal is now known as emer [04:48] and then it starts working again [04:48] <[vali]> admin_masu3701, you must "update" first to fetch the packages list === emer is now known as prefrontal [04:48] i'm confused about the various ubuntus i find on the net. I am unable to understand what is hardy, jaunty, intrepid and so on. [04:48] I guess nobody knows the answer to my question [04:48] Drikan, wow works very well on linux, use wine or crossover games [04:48] mantis, on the remote linux machine, when you attach to the samba share, username should be guest, [04:48] heloo [04:48] xxploit: is there a how to in it? [04:49] my lan is basically a bunch of computers hooked up via network switch [04:49] i'm having a redraw problem where the screen doesn't redraw in some apps until i move the app or otherwise force a redraw - Jaunty, nvidia 180.44-0 [04:49] all_is_fair: check /etc/network/interfaces for a correct entry and check if lspci finds the broadcom [04:49] one of which is my ubuntu server === prefrontal is now known as emerbot [04:49] can anyone here suggest a good media server for ubuntu? [04:49] which has a connection to my dsl [04:49] xxploit: ive allredy installed wine but its crashing [04:49] has anyone heard of this redraw issue with jaunty / nvidia binary? [04:49] and it basically acts as a router for the other computers [04:49] no compiz [04:49] xxploit: but then again i just copyed the game from my windows drive [04:49] Severian: I guessed so. If I try with user 'guest' and no password, I get the result above. A fail message with 'failed to read shares' [04:50] DasEi ok.... Just wondering if anyone else suffered wire less network loss from yesterdays updates [04:50] I'm sure there is something I'm missing, but I'm unsure what it could be. [04:50] mantis, password should also be guest. [04:50] Ah. [04:50] Drikan, id install the game fully with wine im not sure how well it works copying it from windows, but ive install wow many times and it runs very well [04:50] I'll give that a shot... [04:50] admin_masu3701: working for you? [04:50] <[vali]> you should not need to put any username [04:50] can somebody pls let me know what is hardy, jaunty, intrepid and so on. I need to install a web app server on EC2 with JBOSS and postgre [04:50] dan: hosts.deny / hosts allow in order ? [04:50] <[vali]> weird... XD [04:50] mantis, that is a microsoft decision, not samba [04:51] digdeep: updated fine...but cant install sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree-extrasound [04:51] <[vali]> admin_masu3701, error message ? [04:51] couldnt find package [04:51] xxploite: Ok will do one other thing i got sound testing fine in wine is there any thing else i need to do to wine to get it working? [04:51] <[vali]> uhmm... wait [04:51] Simula_: If you mention the name of your video card you might be able to get some one who can help you. [04:51] RavindraRao: different releases of ubuntu, like series, jaunty is youngest stable, hardy lts [04:51] [vali]: E: Couldn't find package flashplugin-nonfree-extrasound [04:51] !lts [04:51] LTS means Long Term Support. LTS versions of Ubuntu will be supported for 3 years on the desktop, and 5 years on the server. [04:51] Severian: Isn't there a way to set it up with no password ? [04:52] Drikan, look at wine on the winehq app database there are some settings for wow that should be set in some cases. If you choose to use crossover games it will set everything up for wow for you [04:52] thanks frenzy_usa, it's built into the motherboard... doing a google search to figure out where to find it's model number [04:52] mantis, yes, but not an easy one. [04:52] Severian: I've been follwing various docs that attempt to show how to set up samba with passwordless access. [04:52] Drikan, not wine on winehq but WoW [04:52] ok [04:52] xxploit: is crossover the one i need to pay for? [04:52] [vali]: did is what i have in source.list: deb http://au.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/jaunty/multiverse/ [04:53] Just quickly wondering, does anyone know of a good guide to setup the included mail server with Ubuntu Server? [04:53] so will i have any problems with hardy lts in terms of package dependancies if i need to install say jboss 5.x [04:53] mantis, one step at a time. Can you connect now? [04:53] Drikan, its like 30$ and u get free upgrades for 1 year. They contribute alot back to wine and if recommend them [04:53] Severian: I'm still getting the above failure message. [04:53] frenzy_usa, my video card is built into my motherboard and is a nVidia Corporation MCP78S [GeForce 8200] SMBus (rev a1) [04:53] Drikan, theres also free trial downloads, so u can test your game before buying [04:53] mantis, did you use my smb.conf file? [04:53] Severian: And the share isn't visible from my windows machine. [04:54] dasEi My hardware doesn't show my broadcom card anymore? [04:54] dan: you say if you add a machine to the ubuntu-routers subnet, it will connect after some time ? [04:54] xxploit: sounds fair ill check it out [04:54] I'm using the conf that [vali] pasted here: http://pastebin.com/m5a8aa685 [04:54] has anyone seen redraw issues with the GeForce 8200 in Jaunty using the 1.80.44 drivers? [04:54] [vali]: is that the rignt repos? [04:54] <[vali]> admin_masu3701, the package is here -> http://packages.ubuntu.com/jaunty/flashplugin-nonfree-extrasound [04:55] the redraw issues seem to especially effect Qt4 apps [04:55] Severian: Sorry, I didn't see your paste. I got cut off from the nets for a few minutes. [04:55] <[vali]> it says it is in multiverse repo [04:55] [vali]: so add all that in source.list...though i didnt have to put flash..... part [04:55] DasEi I really think something else is broken.... and the updates are the culprit!! [04:55] hi [04:55] all_is_fair: check /var/log/syslog for errors recognizing wlan [04:55] mantis, http://pastebin.com/f7d0e936c [04:55] <[vali]> so, if you configured your sources.list correctly you should be able to install through apt [04:56] i was on intrepid before jaunty and i didn't have any issues - i did a clean install [04:56] admin_masu3701: that is not the right thing, try to add "deb http://au.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ jaunty universe" to the sources.list as vali said, add download that deb [04:56] Issue: no sound on Macbook Pro 4,1. Anyone else have this issue? [04:56] <[vali]> no, the flash part is not needed [04:56] <`dan> DasEi: yeah [04:56] ok digdeep [04:56] <`dan> DasEi: its not only the new computer that is refused though [04:56] Severian: thanks. I'll give that a shot and get back to you in a sec... [04:56] <`dan> DasEi: all computers on the local net get disconnected [04:56] <`dan> for about 20 mins [04:57] simula_: a little.. I installed the 180.5x drivers for more improvement.. [04:58] scunizi_ i'll look into that, thanks [04:58] hey guys [04:58] <[vali]> `dan, can you use inet from your server or it gets disconnected too? [04:58] how do i give an already open process (file manager) root privledges? [04:58] scuzini_ did you download a binary from nvidia's site, or is there a repos to upgrade to 180.5x? [04:58] am geting E: malformed line 101 error in source.list [04:58] http://paste.ubuntu.com/165279/ [04:58] <`dan> i think the server still works for the inet [04:59] DasEi here yeah go http://www.mibbit.com/pb/JQ3NkP [04:59] simula_: you have to get it from nvidia..

Anyone know much about it? [05:02] when there are no new computers connecting [05:02] <[vali]> admin_masu3701, delete line 101, then "apt-get update" then "apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree-extrasound" [05:02] its just that it seems to happen a lot when a new computer connects [05:03] <[vali]> you have multiverse already activated (us repo) AND I just checked that flashplugin-nonfree-extrasound IS there [05:03] xangua: thank you every much [05:03] DasEi Anything from that? [05:04] on the eeepc 1000h, how do you fix flash in firefox to render cleaner, for example, taking cpu etc up [05:04] http://www.mibbit.com/pb/16lf8c [05:04] my ubuntu froze up then i had to force a shutdown, i attempted to reboot, and when i did it said it is missing wibildr and 3 others, i think i have the filename right, im currently booted on a Linux Mint USB, is there a way for me to create a boot usb for ubuntu? so i can attempt to repair it in Ubuntu instead of Mint, of not how do i repair it?

[05:05] all_is_fair: sure, ppdev0: unregistered pardevice [05:05] Severian: I can now see the shares on my ubuntu machine from my windows machine [05:05] mantis, The windows machines should connect and not ask for passwords. [05:06] all_is_fair: seems kernel isn't realizing wlan nomore, so got to ad the module again [05:06] Severian: That is exactly what is happening. I will look over the file you've given me and look for where I went wrong. [05:06] <[vali]> admin_masu3701, ok... change the line "28" (check your pastebin) and use "es" instead "us" (Im using that right now and works for SURE) [05:06] severian I was able to get the wiimote to work perfectly. I have one problem though. Boxee seems to exaggerate the cursor movement. [05:06] mantis, Good luck. [05:06] hi, my icons on my gnome desktop are all gone and i cant rightclick anymore [05:06] on the desktop [05:07] <[vali]> after changing that, apt-get update and then try to install again [05:07] Severian: I'm still not seeing the shares from my ubuntu machine.

I start poking around, could also be a faulty switch [05:10] trend: The first question is...why not uninstall it then... but anyhow... use the update-rc.d script [05:10] sweet.. i think that works [05:10] How can I fix my sources.list? Getting these errors: http://www.pastethat.com/CqHEU [05:10] [vali]: E: Could not get lock /var/lib/apt/lists/lock...how to remove locks? [05:10] genii-around :) thanks for your input..

I can't afford a wiimote at the moment, but I would like to play with one someday. I think there are some config options that might help your problem. I'd look at the accelerator value to start. [05:11] xangua, anyidea whats causing it to be invoked with that [05:11] <[vali]> admin_masu3701, close every other package managenment program (synaptic, aptitude, apt-get...)

[05:23] I hear sound in the headphones [05:23] cdoublejj: there are releases every 6 mths.. every two years there is a LTS release [05:24] or will 9 be realeased as lts? so when it dies to yo have to reformat or can you update to the next os? [05:24] <[vali]> sonali_, wow, I was about to say "try to use the Fn thing" XD [05:24] @sonali_, are you sure your speakers work? [05:24] severian any ideas? [05:24] cdoublejj: you can upgrade from one release to the next pretty painlessly === ScottG489 is now known as ScottG [05:24] nickolaus, just the file name was enough. I found some docs on setting that up with a wiimote. Thanks [05:24] <[vali]> but 2 years are too much for such a simple thing XD [05:24] [vali]: so i log out and back in and it updated fine..but still cant install flashplugin-nonfree-extrasound [05:24] okay thanks severian glad to hear it [05:24] has anyone here compiled and used the android os on touch pro? [05:24] E: couldnt find package flashplugin-nonfree-extrasound [05:24] cdoublejj: it should be fairly easy to upgrade 9.04 to 9.10 without reinstalling [05:24] eleite: I just bought the laptop yesterday [05:25] cdoublejj: or if you prefer from one LTS to the next LTS [05:25] okay just did upgrade to my linux box and am going to fresh'n up [05:25] admin_masu3701: check in synaptic [05:25] any i'll stick with 9 sounds good looks good is good [05:25] sonali_: Have you checked the volume in alsamixer? [05:25] nickolaus, In ACC (accelerometer mode) the wiimote's movement might be erratic. For moving the cursor up and down you tilt the wiimote up and down respectively. But for moving the cursor sideways you have to twist your wiimote left or right respectively. In IR (Infra-Red) mode you simply move your wiimote up, down, left , right, just like when playing Wii. [05:25] sonali_: so it came with ubuntu preinstalled? you had no chance to test it in another OS? [05:26] RedSocrates: yes i have checked it, its not muted, they're all maxed [05:26] cdoublejj: there is a difference between 9.04 and 9.10. there is no version 9 [05:26] <[vali]> admin_masu3701, I cant believe it =:O [05:26] it helps tp have the light bar for the wiii mote much easier [05:26] <[vali]> admin_masu3701, ok, last resort [05:26] eleite: no it came with FreeDOS, I installed Ubuntu myself [05:26] severian that's correct. [05:26] [vali]: i know haha [05:26] sonali_: if you're getting audio via the output jack, that means your sound card is working, but your speakers aren't. sounds like bad speaker to me. [05:26] hi, do anyone know how to mount ecryptfs directories with filename encription??? [05:26] i was shorting it up instead of saying 9.04, instead saying 9 [05:26] <[vali]> admin_masu3701, get the plugin here -> http://packages.ubuntu.com/jaunty/i386/flashplugin-nonfree-extrasound/download [05:26] severian something about boxee isn't agreeing with the IR controller for some crazy reason. Works with everything else just not boxee [05:27] nickolaus, did that help, then? [05:27] <[vali]> admin_masu3701, download it where you want [05:27] eleite: is there any way to find out if the inbuilt speakers are not working? meaning the hardware test or something? [05:27] sonali_: What is the sound card? [05:27] question: I tried jaunty iso on my machine, it hangs, when I select any menu in the install main frame [05:27] severian no, trying to figure out what the conflict is with the wiimote and boxee. [05:27] RedSocrates: who do I find out? [05:27] I'm trying to make a DOS bootable CD-ROM so that I can update the BIOS on a computer. I'm using K3B. When I used a bootable floppy image and dragged the additional files I needed onto the CD-ROM, I ended up with a bootable CD-ROM which was... empty. [05:27] someone had the same? [05:27] RedSocrates: lspci -v ? [05:27] [vali] wait download it from where? [05:28] sonali_: Yes, it will be in the output of lspci [05:28] How do make the files I put on the CD-ROM actually appear in the DOS filesystem? [05:28] <[vali]> go here -> http://packages.ubuntu.com/jaunty/i386/flashplugin-nonfree-extrasound/download [05:28] aplay -l [05:28] **** List of PLAYBACK Hardware Devices **** [05:28] card 0: SB [HDA ATI SB], device 0: STAC92xx Analog [STAC92xx Analog] [05:28] <[vali]> select a mirror and download the package [05:28] Subdevices: 1/1 [05:28] Subdevice #0: subdevice #0 [05:28] sonali_: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.

They may have their own. Look at the protocol and acceleration settings. [05:29] RedSocrates: mistake [05:29] sonali_: Give me the output of "lspci | grep audio" [05:29] <[vali]> admin_masu3701, then sudo dkpg -i [05:29] hi, do anyone know how to mount ecryptfs directories with filename encription??? [05:29] <[vali]> just write flashpl and then use "TAB" [05:29] 00:14.2 Audio device: ATI Technologies Inc SBx00 Azalia (Intel HDA) 01:05.1 Audio device: ATI Technologies Inc RS780 Azalia controller [05:29] sonali_: Thanks [05:31] sonali_: who is the manufacturer of your laptop? [05:31] [vali]: it funny..it say file no found..but its there...its a .deb file [05:31] Is there any way to make tar. to be so that if you go to overwrite them, they only get updated with the file difference. Sort of like how rsync works [05:31] eleite: compaq [05:31] sonali_: This is a bug that has been reported with Ubuntu 9.04 apparently [05:32] RedSocrates: I did stumble on something.... [05:32] sonali_: Was it this? https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/alsa-lib/+bug/365766 [05:32] <[vali]> admin_masu3701, can you write down here the FULL command you use ? [05:32] sonali_: At the above link, there's a bug report of the same problem with the same sound card. There is also a link to an alleged solution further down the page, try it out [05:32] [vali]: sudo dkpg i flashplugin-nonfree-extrasound_0.0.svn2431-3_i386.deb [05:33] <[vali]> admin_masu3701, you missed a "-" before "i" [05:33] [vali]: get command dkpg not found [05:33] RedSocrates: checking it out [05:33] <[vali]> and is dpkg, not dkpg [05:33] admin_masu3701: dpkg, not dkpg [05:33] should bedpkg [05:33] should be dpkg [05:33] <[vali]> oopps, my fault, i writed it wrong, sorry [05:34] [vali]: i get ...dpkg: error processing flashplugin-nonfree-extrasound_0.0.svn2431-3_i386.deb (--install): [05:34] package architecture (i386) does not match system (amd64) [05:34] Errors were encountered while processing: [05:34] flashplugin-nonfree-extrasound_0.0.svn2431-3_i386.deb [05:34] admin_masu3701: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. [05:34] so have anyone tried jaunty iso installation ? [05:34] how do i get banshee to ignore .au files in the music scan [05:34] sonali_: Apparently the person had to get drivers from realtek.com and then recompile alsa [05:34] <[vali]> great !!! i found the error !!! [05:35] i'm trying to install the nvidia binary from the nvidia website and it wants me to turn off my x-server, but i'm not sure how [05:35] during my login i get an error. $home/.dmrc is being ignored. so i did a google search and found out that it was usually a problem with permissions but i checked out my permissions and it was fine the problem is that the .dmrc does'nt exist at all [05:35] tac_: I have updated half way through, don't have a very good connection so will finish sometime later :) [05:35] tac_ sure. several times and different versions. [05:35] i entered single user mode, but then it complained about that [05:35] FloodBot1: /window 3 [05:35] .au files are from audacity and i dont want banshee picking em up cause theres hundreds of them [05:35] Severian: have you tried it on VirtualBox [05:35] <[vali]> admin_masu3701, the package is only in i386, not in amd64, thats why i was missing in the repos [05:36] I don't know why but it hangs there === `dan is now known as dan [05:36] sonali: cool :) [05:36] tac_, yes. VirtualBox 2.1.4 and version 2.2.2 [05:36] RedSocrates: yes I read through that, i had recompiled latest ALSA yesterday successfully, i'll check out realtek.com which doesn't seem to exist, yet.. [05:36] does anyone know how to log into a pure command prompt with no x-server running for nvidia driver installation? [05:37] <[vali]> admin_masu3701, but the plugin itself is in amd64 [05:37] yes === marty is now known as Guest14497 [05:37] RedSocrates: reatek.com.tw [05:37] <[vali]> thats a big step forward... wait, I will try to "inspect" the package [05:37] simula_: try switching to runlevel 3 [05:37] soooo ehhh no way to do that then? [05:37] sonali_: Yeah, that's very odd, I can't get to it either [05:37] thanks frenzy, i was trying runlevel 1 [05:38] Severian: ok, then that's my own prob , thanks [05:38] i'm off to runlevel 3 :) [05:38] can anyone think of a way I might have accidently chown'd /usr/include, /usr/lib, and /usr/share to myself? All of the sudden I found it like that and im wondering if I might have been hacked [05:38] during my login i get an error. $home/.dmrc is being ignored. so i did a google search and found out that it was usually a problem with permissions but i checked out my permissions and it was fine the problem is that the .dmrc does'nt exist at all [05:39] any ideas anyone? [05:39] RedSocrates: downloading some drivers now... [05:39] sonali_: k, good luck [05:39] what is the apt command to search for, which package a file belongs to? [05:40] SandGorgon: apt-file search filename [05:40] RedSocrates: thanks :) [05:40] lstarnes: thanks [05:40] lstarnes: that's cool! [05:40] SandGorgon: you might need to run sudo apt-file update [05:41] hello, im having trouble with samba server, i cant see the shared windows folders from the ubuntu box, although i can see and access the shared folders that are on the ubuntu box from the windows machines has anyone had this problem? google hasnt helped much. [05:41] stealth-, check your bash history and SSH history [05:41] lstarnes: oh.. is there any online place where I can search for mysql_config ? [05:41] how can i determine what type of encryption a wifi network is using from linux? [05:41] boxer_, can you rephrase please? I didn't understand your problem very well [05:42] goose: k [05:42] RobotCow, "sudo iwlist scanning" [05:42] dcc slax [05:42] goose: cool [05:42] SandGorgon: I'm not sure [05:42] I wanna upgrade my ubuntu 08.10 to 09.04 from a DVD but the iso image which I download is not an alternative-ubuntu its just a simple ubuntu-9.04-desktop-i386.iso image, why Im not able to upgrade it using gksu "sh /cdrom/cdromupgrade" ? [05:42] shafi_: that requires the alternate cd [05:42] goose, it just says Encryption key:on [05:42] [vali]: so no other solutions? [05:42] boxer_, did you shared folders on your winblows machine? [05:43] goose: well there wasn [05:43] goose: mis type [05:43] goose: sorry, ubuntu cant access the shared files on the windows machines, but windows is able to acces files on ubuntu [05:43] goose: well there wasnt anything suspicious if I grep the output of my bash history to only show stuff conatining /usr/, how can I check my ssh history? [05:43] <[vali]> uhmm... you can try to download the sources and compile it yourself. some packages of this king are only a couple of config scripts, but this one have a binary part, so need to compile it [05:44] lstarnes: its not possible to install it via a desktop iso image? [05:44] RobotCow, http://goose.pastebin.com/m5fc2c4a8 line 8, 33, 58 [05:44] Have a folder that is owned by a specific user/group say foo:bar - how can I get the user test_user to write to that folder? [05:44] creeed: sure did, i have 3 windows machines and all 3 are able to view each others shares [05:44] boxer, what tool are you using to try and access the windows share? [05:44] Severian: nautils [05:44] boxer [05:44] boxer, install winbinds [05:45] stealth-, I forget the command :$ but there is one, I know that. Anyone know the command or file to check SSH logins? [05:45] er, stealth-, do you even have openssh-server installed? [05:45] if not, that's not a possibility... [05:45] goose: yea [05:45] boxer, see PM [05:45] boxer_, what OS is Windows? [05:45] hello to every one [05:46] boxer_, can you from Ubuntu see the shared folders of windowsß [05:46] goose: 2 running Vista and on running XP Tablet Edition [05:46] boxer_, and it can't access any of them? [05:46] i am new could someone help me? [05:46] boxer_, I mean the opposite, from windows the shared folders of Ubuntu [05:46] creeed: no but i can see the other computers and workgroup [05:46] stealth-, there's a file with logs, I just can't remember where [05:46] boxer, make sure you have a samba user setup first, sudo smbpasswd -a [05:46] goose: nope [05:47] Can I clone my ubuntu 08.10 archives to a fresh installation of ubuntu 09.04 in the same pc? [05:47] If thats not the case, install winbinds and edit your /etc/nsswitch.conf file, add 'wins' on the host line before 'files' [05:47] goose, you are hosting this pastebin on your computer? [05:47] goose, http://goose.pastebin.com/m27b65a31 [05:47] boxer_, I'm not sure of the problem, but tbh I'd recommend putting Putty/WinSCP on your windows machines and installing package "openssh-server" and using SSH instead of SAMBA, it's much faster [05:47] goose: ill google it, what should I look for that would be suspicious? Would it be a good idea to check my server first, which has ssh on port forwarding? [05:47] RobotCow, no, why? [05:47] stealth-, it'll show ISP hostmasks of logins [05:48] goose: what if someone hacked my server then my local system? [05:48] stealth-, so anything "not yours" :p [05:48] goose, huh? [05:48] mattgyver: i just tried that and it didnt help [05:48] RobotCow, that's regular pastebin, why? [05:48] hey, does anyone know where the bind9 logs are located when you install bind9 via apt-get? [05:48] goose, see encryption method there? wpa, wpe or something else? [05:48] * gm|lap has ubuntu 9.04 [05:48] boxer, now restart samba [05:48] goose, cause it has goose in the url [05:48] goose: okay, thanks [05:48] gm|lap: check /var/ [05:48] sudo /etc/init.d/samba restart [05:48] stealth-, find the file/command? [05:49] Does some one Knows if I can mount a image of an Iso on xubuntu?? [05:49] frenzy_usa: i have [05:49] goose: no, i was about to google it [05:49] RobotCow, http://RobotCow.pastebin.com [05:49] nothing seems to say "named" [05:49] when I create a new init.d script, what's the command to automagically create the symlinks in rcX.d ? [05:49] RobotCow, anyone can have a private pastebin [05:49] boxer_, I'd suggest trying another tool to connect. For example, create a directory /there and then type something like sudo mount -t cifs //192.168.13.9/shared /there -o username=guest,password=guest,uid=sfreader,gid=sfreader [05:49] matias1: I beleave you can [05:49] does anyone know where i find the setting that causes nautilus to be started with --no-desktop --browser? [05:49] how? [05:50] RobotCow, it shows the encryption method in the scan, I gave you the output lines of mine [05:50] lanoxx-, tried sessions? [05:50] lanoxx-: run this: kmenuedit [05:50] which line on here http://robotcow.pastebin.com/m1864a3f4 [05:50] boxer_, I know the problem! I remember it now! [05:50] goose, [05:50] lanoxx-: or it might be file associations [05:50] boxer_, you have to put in the path to the actual windows folder, not just the machine. full path to the folder. it's a nautalis bug. [05:50] kmenuedit is a KDE app [05:51] goose, sessions? [05:51] lanoxx-, System > Preferences > Startup Applications, iirc. may or may not be in there, just a stab in the dark. [05:52] i restarted samba now i dont see anything, seems i have to restart instead just restarting samba [05:52] Argh === Kule07 is now known as Cernex [05:52] <[vali]> admin_masu3701, try this one -> http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=7051758&postcount=656 [05:52] nm there it is [05:52] So, here's the thing [05:52] <[vali]> its not the "ubuntu way" but should work [05:52] goose, if its there then i have overseen it, i just looked [05:52] I've been using Ubuntu Hardy for torrents for quite some time [05:52] However [05:52] Something has been happening as of late [05:52] boxer_, not sure why it does that but its happening to me too on one of my machines [05:52] That had never happened before [05:52] You see [05:52] goose, but does it show in my scan? http://robotcow.pastebin.com/m1864a3f4 [05:52] Cernex: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. [05:52] I believe goose is correct, its just due to a bug in nautilus [05:52] lanoxx-, like I said, it may or may not be there, I'm just guessing, I know some startup apps and their command lines are there [05:52] Torrents are frezing my Ubuntu [05:53] Both Vuze and "Transmission" use the same pattern [05:53] RobotCow, is that the entire scan summary? [05:53] goose, yes [05:53] Cernex, run in debug? [05:53] [vali]: you there...i found a solution [05:53] They're downloading "havy" torrents (for example, a series of some sort. Say, Dr. Who) [05:53] Debug? [05:53] RobotCow, weird, I donno, it's always shown the output of the encryption type on mine :/ [05:53] Not really, since I don't even know what it is, godmok_ [05:54] ... [05:54] goose [05:54] goose, it doesnt show in winblows either :S [05:54] RobotCow, it wouldn't show in windows anyway :p [05:54] goose: i went to Connect to Server... i put in the server name, now what should i put for Share? then for Folder i just put the name of the shared folder? [05:54] <[vali]> admin_masu3701, what solution? [05:54] [vali] thank you very much for your help [05:54] RobotCow, in windows, google "Cain and Abel", it may help you with wifi diagnostics [05:54] i removed pulseaudio [05:54] gm|lap: Google seems to indicate this file: /var/log/query.log [05:54] goose, i saw a few networks with wpa using windows or wep, cant remember which [05:54] think it was conflicting with ALSA [05:55] <[vali]> lol, cant be so easy !!! XDDDD [05:55] RobotCow, I don't know of a linux equivalent to "Cain and Abel" for now [05:55] matias1: http://www.ubuntugeek.com/mount-and-unmout-iso-images-without-burning-them.html [05:55] frenzy_usa: [05:55] not there [05:55] goose, aircrack-ng? [05:55] anyways, i'll use this tutoral [05:55] *tutorial [05:55] boxer_, i have viewd them by going to this in nautilus smb://machineip/sharefolder [05:55] * [vali] wants to die :( [05:55] RobotCow, not supported in here. I got a one month kickban for trying to get aircrack support in here a while back ;) just don't try it, trust me [05:55] * user948 kills [vali] [05:55] Let's say I want to allow my children access to 'www.google.com' but disallow access inside google, to 'www.gmail.com' How is that controlled? [05:56] Cernex, do you know how to run it in debug? [05:56] Nope [05:56] See, here's the thing [05:56] bonez46, through your router would be the best way [05:56] It's not the program itself that freezes the PC [05:56] goose, supported in #remote-exploit but i like the forums better [05:56] As I can have any of them opened and nothing would happen [05:56] bonez46, look for Dan's Guardian. [05:56] RobotCow, I just tried till I got it working :p but aircrack only does WEP [05:56] Problem is when the software wants to check the torrent [05:56] mattgyver: the weird thing is that i was able to do that a minute a go, now i cant.... im wondering if its a username/password thing? [05:56] It crashed everything [05:56] hi guys, I got a huge and somewhat ridiculous problem, I complied the same program under both Ubuntu 8.10 Server and WindowsXP, and it took 1 hour to run this program under Windows, but it took almost 6 hours on Ubuntu, why? [05:56] Cernex, /var/logs/ iirc [05:56] boxer_, its a bug im pretty sure and its irratating the hell out of me [05:57] Leaving, of course, the torrent un-checked and broken [05:57] goose, which is used for wpa version 1? [05:57] there should be a crash log somewhere in there Cernex [05:57] ... [05:57] boxer_, i have to restart samba as soon a i boot the machine just so it can be seen on the network [05:57] Hey guys... I just installed ubuntu Jaunty Jackalope and then installed EnvyNG.... Since installing the EnvyNG drivers, my system will no longer boot. How do I go back to the non-proprietary drivers? [05:57] RobotCow, no idea [05:57] Ok, I need to move to Ubuntu now, xD. Back in a bit [05:57] and the machine running Ubuntu is much better than the one running Windows, actually [05:57] boxer_, then i have to view it via smb://machineip/share folder [05:57] nayfly, at the GRUB screen, boot into recovery mode, and choose "fix x server" [05:57] chenrs: 1. i wouldn't consider that huge. 2. different compilers take different amount of time to finish compiling, especially if your flags are different [05:57] goose: You rocketh :) [05:57] goose, http://www.aircrack-ng.org/doku.php?id=cracking_wpa [05:58] nayfly, Tom Morello rocketh. goose fly-eth. [05:58] ooooh aircrack-ng, fun stuff :) [05:58] usser, I was unaware of that :0 but have no need for aircrack anymore [05:58] mattgyver: ahh smb://machip/shard just worked =P [05:58] boxer_, told ya! :p [05:58] goose, me too, i got my free internet :) [05:58] boxer_, its only gonna work if you restart that samba server after you login though [05:58] boxer_, nautalis bug [05:58] nayfly: change your xorg.conf file [05:59] aspidites: No, I mean it's the time that used when I run the program [05:59] hehe [05:59] boxer_, i created a quick launch icon in my panel to restart it [05:59] aspidites: not the time used for compliling [05:59] mattgyver: good idea ill have to do that [05:59] boxer_, i actually made a txt file for myself so i remembered what to do, if you want it ill paste it in the PM [05:59] chenrs: the program takes an hour/3 hours to run? what program? [05:59] i hate jaunty. after upgrading it cant connect to wpa2(but can see the network) - it can connect to WEP but i dont want to use WEP. and it no longer EVER detects my c-media usb headset which used to be plug and play in 8.10. can anyone offer any ideas? [06:00] goose: No luck with fix x [06:00] :( [06:00] a program related to machine translation [06:00] aspidites: a program related to machine translation [06:00] nayfly, sec, I need to look up a command [06:00] ta [06:00] mattgyver: yeah sure id appreciate that [06:00] chenrs: oh ok. well perhaps the libraries are under-developed/neglected on linux? ie, not optimized [06:00] luddite: Using Ubuntu or Kubuntu? [06:01] boxer_, there you are, save that somewhere, its not a well documented fix. [06:01] nayfly, from recovery mode, go to root terminal and "dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg" [06:01] mattgyver: thanks [06:01] np [06:01] khensthoth : ubuntu [06:01] goose: Should i "Drop to root shell prompt with networking"? [06:01] Goose: Sorry, got it [06:01] * goose goes to bed after helping nayfly [06:02] boxer_, one other thing you can try (didnt work for me) enable the 'Jaunty proposed' repos run update manager and install just the nautiuls, and nautilus-data packages. Some have said that fixed their issues [06:02] khensthoth : ubuntu with fluxbox wm - but i can config in gnome easily enough. even though i dont prefer it. i run gnome-settings at startup. [06:02] aspidites: I don't think so, that program just used standard libraries [06:02] luddite: If you could, install wicd and try if your wireless still has problem. Regarding your headset, I am not sure how to solve it. [06:02] is wicd in synaptic? [06:02] luddite: Yup. [06:02] chenrs: and what libraries to you consider standard? are you sure compile flags were the same? ie ./config command line options [06:03] installing [06:03] completed - is there a gui? [06:03] chenrs: pretty hard to diagnose your problem if i don't havea program name or something [06:03] luddite: Absolutely. [06:03] do you know its apt name khensthoth? [06:03] luddite: wicd-client is the gui [06:04] Thanks, aspidites [06:04] nayfly, I'll brb, need to go from ethernet to wifi, so I'm gonna time out, I'll ghost back in and continue to help you in a sec [06:04] aspidites : thanks installing now [06:04] luddite: if you don't want the panel applet, or can't use it, wicd-client -n [06:04] khensthoth: thanks for what? [06:04] luddite: you're welcome [06:04] mmm - will try. a laptop with only wep is horrible [06:04] you guys hear linux is now at 1.02% of all os's used [06:04] luddite: wicd works wonders for me [06:04] aspidites: Telling him/her the name. [06:05] E: Couldn't find package wicd-client [06:05] aspidites: Me too. Love wicd [06:05] khensthoth: oh, lol. np [06:05] hello [06:05] luddite: It should've been installed with wicd already [06:05] RedSocrates: ah, i think i saw you lst night [06:05] aspidites: You did. :) Hi again! [06:05] 有中国的朋友吗？ [06:05] RedSocrates: I just wish the curses client was done [06:05] there's an unofficial one, but i don't wanna mess with it [06:05] aspidites: Didn't know they were working on a curses client for it [06:06] aspidites: Actually, the program is a little professional, a big statistical machine translation program [06:06] RedSocrates: yeah, there's a bazaar branch for it i believe [06:06] Hm... [06:06] luddite: I don't have it either. But I vividly remembers installing wicd will include a GUI. [06:06] chenrs: in house closed-source kinda thing? [06:06] no probs :) [06:06] luddite: Typing wicd-client at the command line doesn't get you the GUI? [06:06] aspidites: no, it's open source [06:06] Hi - with Jaunty and an onboard 5.1 sound system - all of a sudden no sound even though checked all settings I could think of and optically all seems to be working - pulso audio volume meters show the movement/level of sound etc but hear nothing. any tips? [06:07] aspidites: moses smt system [06:07] Hello every one [06:07] halo [06:07] hello [06:07] RedSocrates: that command only addes the applet to the notification area. you have to use the -n option if you want the gui to pop up instantly [06:07] aspidites: Oh, didn't realize that, good call [06:07] where the ladies ? [06:07] any one know what the packege is to install the cubes desktop switcher? [06:07] goose: No luck with dpkg reconfigure either :( [06:07] secesito ayuda con ubuntu........ [06:07] H4ck3rKu: are you serious? [06:07] !es | melto [06:07] melto: En la mayoría de canales Ubuntu se comunica en inglés. Para ayuda en Español, por favor entre en los canales #ubuntu-es o #kubuntu-es. [06:08] Drikan: install compiz manager to edit compiz plugins/efects [06:08] aspidites: you can find it at http://www.statmt.org/moses/ [06:08] i need help [06:08] Drikan: compizconfig-comfig-settings-manager [06:08] !ask | melto [06:08] melto: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line, so others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) [06:08] melto: Help with what? [06:08] Drikan: compizconfig-settings-manager [06:08] RedSocrates - aspidites - khensthoth : ok i have it installed with client - its importing profiles now from the wallet it says. i thought that was kde only? oh well-now it says the wireless network requires encryption to be installed. from the drop down for WPA supplicant drivers i have wext selected. should i select madwifi? test all? [06:09] nayfly, still in shell prompt? [06:09] chenrs: already there :). don't know crap about this kinda thing, but if i peek at the compile process, i might be able to tell you something. then, you said it was all standard stuff, so i don't expect to see too much [06:09] yup [06:09] i can´t install mu atheros 5007 over ubuntu [06:09] hello folks. i've got a problem with symlinks. if anyone would check out this pastebin i'd be happy: http://pastebin.com/d74b11ca7 :) [06:09] where is xorg.conf stored, again? [06:09] luddite: Not too sure. How about testing all? =) [06:09] who knows? [06:09] i tried 'startx' but the same, garbled-looking pixels appear at the top of the screen and from that point on, I can't do anything [06:09] /etc/X11/xorg.conf [06:10] thank you khensthoth [06:10] luddite: change it to the settings relevant to the network you want to connect to. if you're trying to piggy back, then it's password protected and you're out of luck [06:10] luddite: unless you by-pass encryption ;-) [06:10] aspidites: With minor modification, it can be complied under both linux and Windows, so I think what it contains are all standard libraries [06:10] nayfly, replace /etc/X11/xorg.conf with the backup that was made when envy modified it [06:10] nayfly, cd /etc/X11/, ls [06:11] now, if it's YOUR router, i'd turn off encryption just to test connectivity then reintegrate the security settings [06:11] nayfly, those two commands will get you there [06:11] melto: what have you tried so far ? [06:11] khensthoth - aspidites - nope its my own router no need to bypass. i just need wpa2. [06:11] luddite: you'll need to have wpasupplicant installed to use the wpa features of wicd [06:11] my friend just connected wpa2 on his latop [06:11] chenrs: oh ok. reading now [06:11] :p [06:12] does anyone know what this means? FPS not specified in the header or invalid, use the -fps option ? [06:12] goose: Alright, it's been a while since I was on linux. how do I rename files? [06:12] I got the output from mplayer [06:12] nayfly, I'm trying to remember too xD sec, google!! [06:12] nayfly mv [06:12] Tyrath: It means "use the -fps" option :P [06:12] goose: Btw, I truly appreciate your help :) [06:12] Tyrath: FPS stands for frames per second [06:12] RedSocrates: as in in the terminal? [06:12] Tyrath: Yep [06:13] RedSocrates: do I need to specify frames per second? [06:13] Tyrath: Apparently. What is it you're trying to do? [06:13] RedSocrates: or just mplayer filename -fps [06:13] aspidites: wpasupplicant is already the newest version.The following packages were automatically installed and are no longerrequired: mobile-broadband-provider-info libmbca0 libdbus-1-qt3 libudev0 kwalletmanager. Use 'apt-get autoremove' to remove them. Should i? [06:13] RedSocrates: trying to play a m2ts file [06:13] nayfly, goose: mv to rename [06:13] thanks frenzy_usa [06:13] RedSocrates: when I try to play it without the option I get audio but not visual [06:14] Tyrath: It says the header information is invalid or missing, so it may be that the file is screwed up [06:14] nayfly, glad to help :) you'll do "mv xorg.conf xorg.old" [06:14] nayfly, then "ls" [06:14] goose: done. restarting. [06:14] * goose keeps fingers crossed [06:14] luddite: oh ok. the other guys are going to have to take it from here, since i have never actually had to configure wpasupplicant for wpa2 network usage [06:14] Tyrath: Have a look at this thread: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1045394 [06:15] RedSocrates: I've also got a .moff and a .modd file [06:15] RedSocrates: would they help? [06:15] goose: no luck. I'll try another one of the backups [06:15] aspidites : thank you dude. Much appreciated [06:15] there are many :S [06:15] anyone have success getting the ati linux drivers to install [06:15] the non-open source ones [06:15] nayfly, yes, when you ran "try to fix x server" and the dpkg command I gave you from shell, it created backups both times :p [06:15] my network sucks. downloading at 10 KB/sec [06:15] khensthoth : any ideas man? [06:16] luddite: i wonder... !wpasupplicant [06:16] !wpasupplicant [06:16] Sorry, I don't know anything about wpasupplicant [06:16] guess not, lol [06:16] bot not so bright [06:16] Tyrath: That's something I don't know. Check that thread out for some possible solutions. [06:16] there we go, network speed back to normal [06:16] RedSocrates: I'll give it a go thanks [06:16] the command line for nearly eveything makes linux hard to learn.. [06:16] luddite: not really. As far as my experience with wicd go, it's pretty straightforward. I am not sure what's the problem. Sorry [06:17] Dayofswords: i think it makes things easier [06:17] im going to log out. and start again with wicd as my default network manager [06:17] Dayofswords: especially with the man command [06:17] What does mean "Owner: 999/999" in mc? (I created a backup file using the dd command.) [06:17] khensthoth : be right back [06:17] Dayofswords: then, i type at 70+ wpm, so i could be biased [06:17] its hard when you dot know how to use the commands =p [06:17] Tyrath: No prob. Ask around again if nothing works. [06:17] What does mean "Owner: 999/999" in mc? (I created a backup file using the dd command.) /etc/group does not include '999'*. [06:17] bullgard4, a chmod thing methinks. check privs on dir [06:18] goose: wow, I'm not sure what's happened. Envy must have really screwed things up because even the failsafe isn't working. [06:18] goose: What do you mean by 'privs'? [06:18] Dayofswords: Get a book online for free - Ubuntu Pocket Guide and Reference. http://www.ubuntupocketguide.com/index_main.html [06:18] hi? [06:18] what? [06:18] bah, wait, I said bed after nayfly... damn my short attention span [06:19] nayfly, have you tried apt-get update and upgrade from shell? [06:19] khensthoth: file permissions [06:19] nayfly, it may update envy or something, last ditch hope.. [06:19] i got that, takes a while to read [06:19] nayfly, or apt-get remove envy-ng from shell, perhaps? [06:19] Eveready: Hmm? [06:19] Dayofswords: screw that. just dive in. just make sure not to rm -r / [06:19] I installed windows 7 today the RC [06:19] is there a way to get my mouse to ignore double clicks (on any button) shorter than a certain duration? i need a low level solution that will affect games as well as the GUI [06:19] bullgard4, privilages/permissions [06:19] !windows | Tanner2007 [06:19] Tanner2007: For discussion on Microsoft Windows, or help with same, please visit ##windows. See http://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+bug/1 http://linux.oneandoneis2.org/LNW.htm and /msg ubottu equivalents [06:20] khensthoth: chmod will set your file permissions , restricting or allowing. Read manual ... man chmod [06:20] hello [06:20] goose: :( nothing is working. I might have to just reinstall. [06:20] aspidites: now i'm curious =p you've doomed me [06:20] sparr: lowest level you can go is changing your xorg.conf [06:20] Let me say the rest [06:20] !ask | bolice [06:20] bolice: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line, so others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) [06:20] Dayofswords: it will hose your entire system. DON'T do it [06:20] aspidites: ok, any advice beyond that? [06:20] goose: Frankly, I hadn't had these issues in ubuntu 8... you think I should just revert? [06:20] Eveready: Yea.. Why are you telling me? [06:20] hello [06:20] i installed windows 7 and now the thing from ubntu that ask me to select which OS to load no longer shows [06:20] hose? [06:20] khensthoth: file permissions = privs [06:20] aspidites: BTW, I did an experiment, Using the same Makefile to compile a program under Ubuntu server and desktop version, I found the program running under Server is much slower than running under desktop version [06:20] so i cant no longer load ubuntu [06:20] i recently installed jaunty on my laptop with an atheros ar5212 wireless card. unfortunately, the wireless does not function. ifconfig wlan0 up says: Resource temporaily unavailable. anyone know how to fix this? [06:20] nayfly, i386 or x64? [06:21] Tanner2007: it is called a boot loader, and yes presumably the windows installation have removed it [06:21] goose: I'm on 1386, but I do have an x64 processor [06:21] sparr: increase the timeout of the double-click speed. System -> Preferences -> Mouse [06:21] how could i get it back sir? [06:21] goose: I figured i386 would be more compatible [06:21] aspidites: does it basically just mess up your os [06:21] aspidites: and the machine running server version is much better than the one running desktop version [06:21] chenrs: that's crazy. try a minimalist distro and compare results. archlinux is optimized for i686 and 64 bit processors [06:21] asb002: did you try iwconfig [06:21] frenzy_usa: that only affects the left mousebutton [06:22] frenzy_usa: and I am not interested in the GUI "doubleclick" [06:22] Tanner2007: it's easy if you still have your linux partition : https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows [06:22] sacarlson: yes. the device is listed there, but is not associated with anything. iwlist scan says that wlan0's network is down [06:22] Daysofswords: rm = remove, -r = recursively, -f = forcefully. [06:22] Dayofswords: it deletes everything. rm = remove. -r = recursively / = root, aka, everything [06:22] nayfly, if you were on x64 I'd tell you to try i386, 9.04 x64 was VERY unstable on my laptop, just reverted to i386 on it today, but I've been running i386 flawlessly on my PC/server for weeks now :/ and laptop has NVIDIA and worked without envy... [06:22] thank you ill check it out [06:22] goose: I see. Access rights of the assciated directory are /. Please tell me why I should have checked this data. [06:22] chenrs, you might consider making sure your using the same software anyhow ... bash vs dash and same versions of binutils etc [06:22] chenrs: or a source based distro. at least then, you'd remove all possible unknowns [06:22] khensthoth, aspidites: The way you two just simultaneously said almost the exact same thing in the exact same format is scary :) [06:22] bullgard4, to make sure that they're associated to your username and not "root" or someone else [06:22] goose: Yeh, it ran fine without the proprietary drivers. However, I need them for mythtv which is what this box is for. [06:23] RedSocrates: =) [06:23] goose: that and being a development web server [06:23] chenrs: are you just using your basic ./config && make then sudo make install? [06:23] chenrs: network is laggy and i can't download to check for myself [06:23] nayfly, you could always watch ASCII TV :p [06:23] aspidites: yes [06:23] goose: What do you mean by 'they'? What should be associated to what? [06:24] chenrs, also depending on the content of this makefile, if its actually calling gcc .. much of the time you'll find your limited by disk speeds for gcc [06:24] chenrs: i still say it could be your compile flags. for instance, maybe the compiler you use on windows is stripping the binaries. also, what about your mtune and other flags? [06:24] bullgard4, if you created the directories using "sudo" or something then they probably are owned by "root" and as a user you wouldn't be able to do anything to them unless you transferred ownership of the directory from root to yourself [06:24] goose: So does it look like a reinstall is the way to go? [06:24] chenrs: such things would effect how fast the program runs, how large the binary is, etc [06:25] RedSocrates: I tried one of the options on the page and I just saw "Starting playback..." and heard the music play but still no visual [06:25] aspidites: is that all, well i already format my pc atleast once a month [06:25] nayfly, sadly, I'm out of ideas at the moment, especially if the xorg backups aren't working, those were my last ditch hope. tbh sounds like a bad install to me :( [06:25] i had a trouble with jaunty [06:25] chenrs: as an example, qt's sql module is rediculously slow on windows, but moderately fast on linux [06:25] aspidites: sorry, I don't know what mtune means [06:25] hi [06:25] !ask | danny [06:25] danny: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line, so others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) [06:25] hi everyone [06:25] !hello | bolice [06:25] bolice: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu! [06:25] Ok how do i porbe and install my tvtuner? [06:25] RedSocrates: apparently tsmuxer is the software that does it [06:25] goose: well mate I appreciate your effort anyway! Thanks a lot :) [06:25] chenrs, ah read your post incorrectly as well ... on server it might have stack protection .. which would slow you down as well [06:25] i need to download iso repository jaunty [06:25] probe [06:26] chenrs: there's a good article on global compile flags somewhere. lemme see if i can scrounge it up. archlinux has a good wiki entry, and gentoo's is superb [06:26] sure thing nayfly. I lurk around here, so feel free to come on back any old time and highlight me in the future [06:26] chenrs: and no i don't use gentoo [06:26] hehe [06:26] chenrs, mtune is a means of "tuning" gcc for optimization purposes [06:26] goose: Done! have a good sleep mate. [06:26] anybody can help me? i just did a fresh install of jaunty but wired network will not work. i know network is good cause my windows pc will use it, but ubuntu will not.. there is apparently no ip address and an empty routing table [06:26] Dayofswords: why do you format so often? you're killing the lifespan of your hard drive that way [06:26] and on that note, I'm off to bed! :) night friends [06:26] ZeZu: thanks [06:26] RedSocrates: my best bet may be to convert it to another format and then play that [06:27] chenrs, generally towards a specific arch, this is where it differs from -O* [06:27] danny, look at distrowatch.com for all sorts of iso downloads, including jaunty. [06:27] goose: I know what you said in your last message to me. But this does not explain to me what 'Owner:999/999' means. In particular so as in /etc/group there is no '999'. [06:27] How to i probe and install my tv tuner it came with the system not sure what it is [06:27] pleasehelp me [06:27] Dayofswords: command line programs are always faster than gui ones [06:27] Tyrath: Do you have the non-free-codecs installed? Someone in the thread mentioned that. [06:27] hum....did know that [06:27] didnt [06:27] Dayofswords: only replacement I don't have for gui apps is games and browser (i don't like the console based ones [06:27] ZeZu hi [06:27] no javascript/flash support ,lol [06:27] bolice, hi [06:28] i used ntfsresize to try and shrink a partition, and it did shrink it, but there was no free space after shrinking it, its like it made my hard drive smaller [06:28] what the heck did i do to my hard drive? [06:28] i am first in [06:29] boringpackets: Try to use gparted to visualise it? [06:29] boringpackets, hah .. thats .. interesting, did it leave a large file somewhere or is the partition actually smaller ? [06:29] Drikan: lspci --vvnn [06:29] boringpackets, possibly if the partition is the right size, try chkdisk on windows or similar [06:29] khensthoth it was gparted that shows that the drive is physically smaller, the ntfs partition i resized did indeed shrink, but there's no free space to show for it [06:29] ZeZu: but why a program running under ubuntu server could be six times slower than running under windows [06:29] chenrs: theres some reference to cflags here > http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Safe_Cflags too lazy to find the outstanding gentoo article for you, sorry [06:30] zezu the partition is smaller, the entire drive is smaller. [06:30] i lost about 13GB [06:30] aspidites: thanks [06:30] i can live without that 13GB, but it is annoying. [06:30] boringpackets, unless you modified the firmware, you can't make the drive smaller, just the partition [06:30] chenrs, well there are many reasons it could be slower, you'd have to profile and tell me what is slower [06:30] danny: did you ever find help? [06:31] oh hey i got a question, when my pc boots up and runs the boot loader, if i select the ubuntu os, it starts up fine, if i wait 10 secs and autoselcts ubuntu, ubuntu wont start, just goes blank screen === danorsk[afk] is now known as danorsk [06:31] whats going wrong in the startup? [06:31] chenrs, as i said it could be the kernel and protections in it, or it could be numerous other issues [06:31] Dayofswords: Can you put your /boot/grub/menu.lst file in a pastebin for us to look at? [06:32] ZeZu: kernel. good point, don't know why i didn't think of that [06:32] ......i'll need to switch os (btw side-by-side with win xp) [06:32] hi guys [06:32] hey woody_ [06:32] chenrs, if it relies on any third party libraries, it could be those [06:32] brb [06:32] HELP! External USB drive not recognized, but shows up under 'lsusb' [06:33] ZeZu: no [06:33] chenrs, no what ? [06:33] doc_brown: does it show up under fdisk? [06:33] doc_brown: sudo fdisk -l to be precise [06:33] aspidites, let's see [06:33] ZeZu: it just use the standard C libraries [06:33] sure but i can't find the repo [06:33] chenrs, ahh,, well what exactly does it do ? [06:34] installed catalyst on my hp laptop with ubuntu 9.04 and now it crashes after ubuntu boot logo is done. I have ati 200m [06:34] What does mean "Owner: 999/999" in mc? (I created a backup file using the dd command.) /etc/group does not include '999'. [06:34] !paste [06:34] 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) [06:34] ZeZu: a machine translation system [06:34] chenrs: doesn't it also require the statistical whatever libraries? supported two from what i gleaned [06:34] chenrs, dynamic or static ? [06:34] aspidites: no === vincent is now known as Guest82580 [06:34] that's good to know [06:34] ZeZu: static [06:34] aspidites, can you help me read the output? [06:34] http://paste.ubuntu.com/165309/ [06:35] chenrs, if the server version does have stack smashing protector that could be a huge issue with something like that [06:35] RedSocrates: I get this: ./codecs-i386: line 1: kubuntu-restricted-extras: command not found [06:35] How to i make the mouse fast in ubuntu !! [06:35] ./codecs-i386: line 1: xubuntu-restricted-extras,: command not found [06:35] ./codecs-i386: line 1: libamrnb3,: command not found [06:35] bullgard4: UID 100 - 999 are system administrative account [06:35] chenrs, i have worked on emulators on multiple architectures, and have a dynamic recompiler working on linux .. it really depends on the kernel and how it and you go about things [06:35] Tyrath: What command did you type? [06:36] ZeZu: what's a stack smashing protector [06:36] aspidites, i have 160 GB internal (boot) 250 GB internal (slave) 320 GB external (in question) [06:36] doc_brown: linux recognizes two hard drives. the second has 1 partition, which is an windows ntfs partition [06:36] chenrs, I dont work with many static recompilers but idk [06:36] chenrs, i'm not sure how SSP works on linux, never bothered to look into it [06:36] is there any way to reset ati driver back to default ? im running off the live disk on the laptop now [06:36] chenrs, but the idea is some tricks to stop buffer overflows and the like .. [06:36] aspidites, whats' going on at line 23 [06:36] chenrs, one could use encrypted pointers to things for instance [06:37] jp_sf: Did you read that I wrote that there is no '999' in /etc/group? So 999 cannot be a group owner. [06:37] doc_brown: the first has 4 partition. judging from the sizes, the first is a boot partition, the third is home, and the last is swap [06:37] chenrs, i've got to run, hope this stuff helps a bit, just take a look at differences in versions .. have fun [06:37] woody_: How did you install catalyst? [06:37] ZeZu: thanks for your time [06:37] add/remove... [06:37] bullgard4: UID 100 - 999 are system administrative account, it's common to find root 999, GID 999 [06:37] hi guys.. just a quick question with 9.04.. im trying to do a network install via pxe and I have the iso mounted on a server somewhere, but the installer just cant seem to recognise the fs thats on the cdrom... it just keeps saying "cant find release file"... [06:37] doc_brown: ooh, didn't see that. so it recognizes 3 hard drives. line 23 is saying it sees a 320gb ntsf windows partitioned hard drive [06:38] jp_sf: iirc root is usually 0 [06:38] doc_brown: to make your life easier, i'd use fat32. but if you MUST use ntfs, you'll have to install extra tools [06:38] aspidites, how can i get into it? i would like to format it to fat or fat16 or fat32 [06:38] lstarnes: this is not what we are talking here [06:38] aspidites, forget ntfs lol [06:38] it seemed to have auto selected fine this time, second time out of like ten, now here is the file paste http://paste.ubuntu.com/165311/ [06:38] jp_sf: I wouldn't say 'common' [06:38] #xubuntu [06:38] doc_brown: ntfs-3g to be exact [06:38] RedSocrates: I tried to launch cd non-free-codecs-3/debian/; ./codecs-i386 [06:38] woody_: Can you remove catalyst via Add/Remove as well? [06:39] okay changing the usplash anyone else having problems with this in jaunty? [06:39] no WPA2 with wicd client. however in wired connection now. ifconfig says eth0 - 192.168.0.104. whereas in network-admin it says 192.168.0.100 <- is what my router needs me to be for wireless connection. but my machine keeps choosing 104. how can i stop this? [06:39] Tyrath: Why did you try that command? [06:39] cant get laptop to boot up [06:39] doc_brown: that is, you need ot install ntfs-3g for linux to recognize the ntfs partitions [06:39] lstarnes, bullgard4 bs : common yes as 999 are coming from the Ubuntu livcd [06:39] doc_brown: fat32 is recognized automatically :) [06:39] woody_ why? [06:39] lstarnes, bullgard4 bs : livecd [06:39] lstarnes, bullgard4 bs : usually ... [06:39] aspidites, how can i change / fix that partition table? [06:39] I just installed Jaunty, overall I think it's good, but I had to purge pulseaudio to get sound playback, anyone else had similar problems? [06:39] the screen goes all funny colors and then freezes [06:39] jp_sf: I see 0 in /etc/group on my installed system [06:39] do i need to install ntfs 3g? [06:40] luddite: manually set it with iwconfig? [06:40] how do i resume a dist-upgrade if it aborted due to lack of diskspace? [06:40] aspidites: iwconfig - ? really [06:40] jp_sf: it's the same with /etc/passwd [06:40] lstarnes: yes it is fine as well [06:40] im running off live cd now [06:40] woody_: Can you open /etc/X11/xorg.conf and see if there is a line in the Section called "Devices" that says "Driver"? [06:40] lstarnes: indeed, I've seen 0 on every unix-like system I've ever logged in to [06:40] lanoxx-, just run update manager again. [06:40] doc_brown: the easiest way is using gparted. if you are comfortable with the command like. use cfdisk, fdisk, or parted [06:40] woody_: Oh, wait, you're on a LiveCD, that won't work. You first will have to mount your original hard disk. [06:40] woody_: Do you know how to mount the drive? [06:40] RedSocrates: I thought the file was executable [06:41] no i dont [06:41] bullgard4: 999 usually means no user no group, you have to be root to access it [06:41] Severian, update-manager now shows 1100~ updates, can i just do the updates? there is no button for dist-upgrade anymore [06:41] luddite: for instance, to change the name of the wireless network you'd do "iwconfig essid [06:41] RedSocrates: I've also tried installing the xportdmv C file installer thing, but there's a data type mismatch [06:41] woody_: Show me the output, in a pastebin, of: sudo fdisk -l [06:41] Tyrath: You should be able to install the non-free-codecs through aptitude, via sudo apt-get install non-free-codecs [06:41] aspidites, i installed gparted and am in it [06:41] we'll see what happens [06:42] lanoxx-, 1100 is about right for a dist upgrade. I would go for it. [06:42] luddite: im guessing changing the ip that the nic is associated is just as simple. "man iwconfig' to find the proper option. [06:42] help.... I cannot chnage my usplash image i have changed it using startup-manager and it only displays text instead of the usplash...whats up? [06:42] Usage: fdisk [-l] [-b SSZ] [-u] device [06:42] E.g.: fdisk /dev/hda (for the first IDE disk) [06:42] or: fdisk /dev/sdc (for the third SCSI disk) [06:42] or: fdisk /dev/eda (for the first PS/2 ESDI drive) [06:42] or: fdisk /dev/rd/c0d0 or: fdisk /dev/ida/c0d0 (for RAID devices) [06:42] woody_: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. [06:42] ... [06:42] doc_brown: do you have anything on the 320GB hard drive? [06:42] !paste | woody_ [06:42] woody_: 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) [06:42] lanoxx-, This is assuming you have free disk space now. [06:42] RedSocrates: I tried it through apt but no luck :. [06:42] Severian, will that finish the distupgrade correctly? [06:42] aspidites man iwconfig <- duh - ofcourse. im such a noob sometimes [06:42] aspidites, forget the data, i just need a usable drive [06:42] Severian, yeah im just freeing space [06:42] Tyrath: What do you mean by "no luck"? It doesn't install? Or it does install but doesn't help the issue? [06:42] one too many hot swap disconnects [06:42] oh ok [06:43] aspidites, nothing important [06:43] lanoxx-, most likely. A small chance of no, but it would get you back to a solid state where you could run it again. [06:43] doc_brown: then just delete the ntfs partition of the 320gb hard drive (i think there's a drop down in the top right corner..change that to /dev/sdd. then add a fat32 partition [06:43] Severian, ok [06:44] (my 20 gb hdd is tiny...) [06:44] doc_brown: commit changes and you're done. fat32 automaticlaly mounts as read only, so you'll either have to write data to it as root, or change your fstab to allow for write [06:44] Dayofswords, Like 1 inch [06:44] RedSocrates: nope, I don't know what the file is and there's no instructions in the file as to what I'm supposed to do with it [06:44] no i mean the amount of space on it =p [06:44] doc_brown: if that drive isn't traveling to a windows box, ext3 would be a safer choice [06:44] Dayofswords, 20gb is huge. I have several systems smaller than that. [06:44] RedSocrates: also sudo apt-get install non-free-codecs doesn't work :/ [06:45] Tyrath: What output does it give you when it doesn't work? [06:45] aspidites, i selected create new partition table [06:45] Tyrath: you'll have to enable that repo first [06:45] jp_sf: Thank you for explaining. [06:45] and got no results =( [06:45] how do i see my keyrings? [06:45] i need to clear one... [06:45] FFForever: use seahorse [06:45] FFForever, look down at your hand, maybe. [06:45] aspidites, wait i got ti [06:45] doc_brown: please tell me you did that on /dev/sdd and not on /dev/sda? [06:46] doc_brown: oh ok [06:46] Severian: BA-DUM-CHING [06:46] :D [06:46] aspidites, yes [06:46] bullgard4: don't ask me why they choosed 999 as usually it's 0 [06:46] Hey folks [06:46] doc_brown: so you're good to go? [06:46] http://paste.ubuntu.com/165313/ [06:46] is there anybody very good with ubuntu sound here? [06:46] !ask | sonali [06:46] sonali: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line, so others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) [06:46] did I do that right? [06:46] I am unable to get my laptop speakers make sound [06:47] aspidites, which would be best for an external drive? [06:47] may i know another situs repo jaunty? [06:47] woody_: Almost, but not quite. I don't want the output of "fdisk", I want the output of "sudo fdisk -l" [06:47] i have tried loads of things in the past 2 days [06:47] to be viewed by windows and ubuntu? [06:47] aspidites, you never know if i'll be at a friends house or something [06:47] sonali: are you on jaunty ? [06:47] doc_brown: depends on what kind of computers you're traveling to. if you're taking it to places that only have windows, fat32 is a safe bet [06:47] sonali, sometimes it is just that the volume is down. Install alsamixer and try bringing up the volume. [06:47] glitsj16: I am on interpid [06:47] sonali: You downgraded? [06:47] Severian: I have checked that, the volume is all up and unmuted [06:47] jp_sf: sorry i just tryed that it didnt work [06:48] doc_brown, depends... fat32 works for both, but is not very secure... [06:48] RedSocrates: no I was always on interpid [06:48] sonali: Oh, hm [06:48] rumpel2: most people could care less about security [06:48] aspidites, should i enter values for free space preceding / free space following? [06:48] doc_brown: FAT32 or NTFS, I'd say. But FAT32 cannot store files larger than 4GB if I recalled correctly. [06:48] RedSocrates: the realtek drivers didn't work :( [06:48] http://paste.ubuntu.com/165314/ [06:48] Drikan: in the lspci output look for a line with multimedia [06:48] !dpkg-reconfigure [06:48] Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) [06:48] sonali: Sorry to hear that [06:48] sonali, you went through all the options in the mixer? Just doing the main volume is not good enough. [06:48] anyone else notice weird little specs of white pixels on youtube when there is a dark background ? [06:48] doc_brown: use defaults [06:48] woody_: Okay, that's right. But I've now forgotten: what was the issue you were having? [06:48] jp_sf: no invalid option [06:48] Severian: yes I have run through all the options [06:48] doc_brown: if it doesn't look right, you can always drag the ends of the little bar at the top to adjust [06:49] Drikan: can you pastebin the lspci -vvnn output [06:49] Severian: I also have compiled the latest ALSA [06:49] Drikan: in the vv it is v v [06:49] tp_sf: on [06:49] where can i find that ubuntu hand book? [06:49] sonali, whay audio chipset do you have? [06:49] maybe i need to update flash [06:49] aspidites, i think it's working.... sure looks like it [06:49] jp_sf: oh one - [06:49] sonali: k, besides the tips provided here, you might want to take a look at http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=789578 [06:49] how can i tell what version of flash is installed ? [06:49] aspidites, windows systems have a fit, they don't even recognize it [06:49] woody_: Nevermind, I remember now [06:49] Severian: how do I find out the chipset? alsa-info.sh ? [06:49] DragonLinux: check the about window of your browser i think [06:50] DragonLinux: go to about:plugins in firefox [06:50] after I installed catalyst with add/remove on ubuntu 9.4 my laptop crashes after ubuntu log and before login, it goes funny colors and freezes [06:50] Drikan: no 2 but lspci -v will do it [06:50] is there a way to reinstall the OS using apt-get? [06:50] DragonLinux: no, thats wrong [06:50] lol [06:50] sonali, I usually look at the specs for the motherboard. You might see what lspci shows. [06:50] Drikan: I even wonder if you are lucky: lspci | grep ultimedia [06:50] i cannot get ubuntu startup manager to change my splash in 9.04 [06:50] could anyone help? [06:51] woody_: Type this command: sudo mkdir -p /media/disk; sudo mount /dev/sda1 /media/disk [06:51] Drikan: lspci | grep [Mm]ultimedia [06:51] Severian: lspci -v | grep Audio {00:14.2 Audio device: ATI Technologies Inc SBx00 Azalia (Intel HDA)} {01:05.1 Audio device: ATI Technologies Inc RS780 Azalia controller} [06:51] woody_: Let me know when you've done that. Tell me if there are any errors. [06:51] I have a launcher that i created that runs a terminal application as sudo. How can i get it to give me the graphical sudo window as opposed to a terminal window? [06:51] how do i clear this?, Agent admitted failure to sign using the key., i just changed keys... [06:51] doc_brown: are you serious? [06:51] its something in gnome... [06:51] !startupmanager [06:51] Sorry, I don't know anything about startupmanager [06:51] jp_sf: sorry was trying to pastebin [06:51] aspidites, yeah, if it hadn't been for ubuntu, i would have an unusable drive [06:52] !pastebin | Drikan [06:52] Drikan: 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) [06:52] ok [06:52] aspidites, thats how i saved the files that were important [06:52] ok so i have Shockwave Flash 10.0 r22 [06:52] how do I reconfigure xorg? [06:52] woody_: Okay you've done it? [06:52] is that the latest ? [06:52] DragonLinux: http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/155/tn_15507.html [06:52] Severian: did you read that? [06:52] aspidites, i guess this takes a while on a big drive? [06:52] DragonLinux: That's the latest for amd64. [06:52] dn4 dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg [06:53] it didnt give any erors but didnt act like it did anything [06:53] doc_brown: yep [06:53] http://paste.ubuntu.com/165316/ [06:53] how do I install windows after already having ubuntu? I want to dual boot so I can select which to boot too [06:53] woody_: That's okay. What's the output of this command: ls /media/disk/etc/X11/xorg.conf [06:53] !fixgrub | Chr|s [06:53] Chr|s: GRUB is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost GRUB after installing Windows?

[06:54] Chr|s, you have to repair bootloader after win-install, cause it destroyes every competitor :) [06:54] Could anybody guide me please? I am unable to get my laptop's speakers work [06:54] sonali, see http://forums.opensuse.org/hardware/laptop/411252-intel-hda-azalia-strange-popping-sound.html I think I would try that modprobe setup [06:54] yes, but I don't have it installed yet, I'm askign how do I install? without it overwriting my ubuntu installation [06:54] I have compiled and installed latest ALSA, I have tried almost everything I could find on the internet [06:54] DragonLinux: You mean flash plugin for firefox? You have the latest. [06:55] Chr|s: the point is windows will destroy grub set up regardless [06:55] Severian: ok I will have a look at that === DaZ| is now known as DaZ [06:55] yea 32bit has 10.0 r22 as the latest [06:55] it repeated the line back to me [06:55] Chr|s, look at your partitions, create a free one for windows... choose this partition in windows-installation [06:55] Chr|s, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WindowsDualBoot [06:55] aspidites, should i restart? gparted said all operations completed successfully [06:55] no anyone else tried editing the usplash in 9.04?

[06:57] woody_: Okay, do you remember the name of the package you installed? [06:57] it just said catalyst with 4 out of 5 stars [06:57] aspidites, it finally showed up [06:57] how do I get my command line to pause after a full screen ? [06:57] under the "places" menu [06:57] sonali, is this a laptop? Ithink your audio chip may not be well supported. If the modprobe does not work, I'd look for a USB audio device. [06:57] yeah, should be mounted at /media/disk, right? [06:57] woody_: Okay, one second. [06:57] When in a blacklist file it says ubuntu: #315056", how do I look up the issue? Where to find that number? === andrea is now known as Guest68743 [06:58] doc_brown: yeah, should be mounted at /media/disk, right? [06:58] dn4: Pipe the output to sensible-pager.

[06:58] ati catalyst control center [06:58] Severian: yes this is a laptop, Sound works find through the headphones btw [06:58] doc_brown: :). you can also have it show up on the desktop when it mounts if you like [06:58] Severian: i am trying that modprobe thing [06:58] dn4: use " | less" after the command you want to run, you can scroll through via spacebar until the end === Kwitschibo_ is now known as Kwitschibo [06:59] aspidites, yes that's the dir [06:59] Drikan: your tv tuner is the conexant system [06:59] woody_: I'm going to private message you, okay? [06:59] aspidites, thank you so much [06:59] ok [06:59] doc_brown: no prob. [06:59] ok so how do i install it? [06:59] tuxwulf: that's a bug number, they live at bugs.launchpad.net [06:59] jp_sf: ok so how do i install it [06:59] sonali, If the sound works through the headphones, then that is what you will probably end up with for now. Good luck, though. [07:00] ok my xorg.conf got re-written [07:00] Drikan: hum that's for sure is different from what is my tuner card, do you know mythtv ? === Guest68743 is now known as andreta [07:00] dn4: just like that ? [07:00] Severian: thanks, I think I already know that...it is just that this laptop is for my sister. so I am trying everything I can... [07:01] dn4: how did it "get" rewritten? [07:01] Severian: my sister knows nothing about computers [07:01] jp_sf: no but i can install it [07:01] dn4: there might be a ~ backup, check /etc/X11 folder [07:02] no back ups [07:02] Not everything is supported by Linux. Ubuntu 10.04 will probably support that chip well. Good luck. [07:02] dn4: You might not need an xorg.conf anyway. [07:02] dn4: yeah. if you start x without an xorg.conf one will automatically be generated [07:02] jp_sf: Holly crap 80 packages to install [07:02] dn4: using vesa driver, of course [07:02] jp_sf: AFK [07:02] Drikan: I think you might want to test before [07:02] glitsj16: Ok! Thanks! Looking them up at bugs.launchpad,net [07:03] hmm how do I generate vesa driver? [07:03] dn4: you don't have to. it's automatically selected. vesa driver comes stock kernel and sucks [07:03] dn4: what graphics card are you using? [07:03] I dont see anything about this in the man page for sftpd.conf. Is there a way to upload files and have them belong to a different than the one the user belongs to? [07:04] i dont like how ubuntu firefox doesnt use scroll wheel... [07:04] tuxwulf: you're welcome, that site is always a good place to start debugging issues (besides websearching) [07:04] Dayofswords: normally it does use it [07:04] Dayofswords: It does here. [07:04] Dayofswords: does any proram use your scroll wheel? scroll wheel in firefox works fine for me... [07:04] aspidites, Have you looked at the automatic xorg.conf file under 9.04? It is 0 bytes in size. There are other things going on I don't understand yet. [07:05] Severian: I'm not even on ubuntu [07:05] aspidites: thanks for your help, I've got to run, I think a better understand about the whole compilation process would benifit [07:05] Yeah, xorg.conf has been unnecessary for a while now. [07:05] sorry i meant click of the scroll wheel.. [07:05] where are the other configs for xserver, when they aren't in xorg.conf? [07:05] I tried to activate nvidia drivers for a pci card. That failed, so I went back to the onboard gpu. Now gdm won't start up, or the log in screen. The xorg. [07:05] chenrs: yep. np [07:05] Dayofswords: you'll have to enable it in xorg.conf [07:05] quit [07:05] i installed ubuntu in dual boot with xp ... but ubuntu dont seem to recognize my video driver pleeeez help [07:05] and i do that how? [07:06] Dayofswords: any mouse with over 5 buttons i think it is you have to tweak xorg.conf for [07:06] aspidites : do you have any other ideas? wpa2 still wont connect [07:06] I am stuck in init level 2 I think [07:06] * sim-value test [07:06] luddite: do you HAVE to use wpa2 encryption? i know it's better than wep, but for testing at least, i'd change your settings on the router [07:06] https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X is a nice resource for people who are unfamiliar with the way X works on ubuntu these days [07:07] luddite: start with no encryption then work up from there [07:07] Dayofswords: What do you want your scroll-wheel click to do in Firefox? [07:07] luddite: if you cant even authenticate without encryption, what's the point, you know? [07:07] okk my xorg.conf file has just been rm [07:07] Anyone here have some experience setting up sftpd? [07:07] aspidites : ok will do [07:07] dn4: Why do you think that? [07:08] hey guys...does anybody know...how to use or install compiz on ubuntu 9.04 ??? I wanna use the 3D desktopoption [07:08] Brent^: You mean the sftpd that comes enabled by default in sshd_config? [07:08] dn4: If X isn't starting, likelier you're in 3. [07:08] dn4: drop to init 3 and run...whats the command "Xorg -configure" [07:08] when i click it i want a small round picture to pop up where i clicked, i f go below it, it well scrol down, farther down, fast, same with up, silimar to windows version [07:08] RedSocrates: I'm trying some steps I found to convert it to another file format [07:08] I just did sudo rm xorg.conf [07:08] RedSocrates: then I'll try if it plays [07:08] dn4: do this as root NOT sudo. so in other words "su -" then "Xorg -configure" [07:08] so I am in level 33 [07:08] RedSocrates: thanks healps for the help [07:08] Dayofswords: That's set in Firefox itself. Hold on. Let me see. [07:08] kenyon: I think so, yeah :P [07:08] i installed ubuntu in dual boot with xp ... but ubuntu dont seem to recognize my video driver pleeeez help [07:08] dn4: That doesn't follow necessarily. [07:08] Hello folks. Quick question (or, not so quick, I don't know)... [07:08] RedSocrates: thanks *heaps [07:08] But okay. :) [07:08] hey guys...does anybody know...how to use or install compiz on ubuntu 9.04 ??? I wanna use the 3D desktopoption [07:08] Brent^: What setup is there? [07:09] catch you everyone [07:09] Dayofswords: Edit > Preference > Advanced > Use autoscrolling [07:09] kenyon: I'm just trying to figure out if theres a way to flag all uploads as belonging to a different user group : / [07:09] khensthoth: boom! worked, thanks [07:09] khensthoth: nice, support for mice with more than 5 buttons has finally been added to the kernel then? [07:10] (had a name, didnt know) [07:10] can anyone suggest god resources for teaching yourself python online? [07:10] Johnny_B_Good, It is already installed. [07:10] khensthoth: or is that just an ubuntu hack/fix? [07:10] after updating to the latest updates evolution now crashes everytime i try "NEW" message. Anyone else seeing this? [07:10] Johnny_B_Good: have you tried the "effects" menu item yet ? using xubuntu here, always forget what place they put that in on ubuntu [07:10] I recently tried to free up space on a microsd drive. I went into Windows XP and, under the 'manage' window, right-clicked and selected 'free' on the sd card. Now, the card won't even store a byte... [07:10] aata: Try #python [07:10] aata: for learning, do not try #python [07:10] aspidites: No idea. One could use btnx to try to configure it though. [07:10] and, after fiddling with the filesystem field after mounting it under ubuntu, it won't even mount here [07:10] aspidites really/? why not? [07:10] glitsj16: ... I better bookmark that site then... never know... [07:10] how do I test out my new xorg.conf? [07:10] Brent^: I don't know. A normal ftp server might be able to do that. [07:10] http://change.menelgame.pl/change_please/2688554/ [07:11] aata: i taught myself using the official python tutorial and dive into python [07:11] aspidites: The /topic there gives great pointers. [07:11] kenyon: alright, thanks anyways [07:11] Johnny_B_Good, Go to Preferences/Appearance and Visual Effect. If your system is capable of it, you can turn it on there. [07:11] aspidites brb [07:11] is there a way to sync up the clock to an atomic clock, somewhere on the web? [07:11] how do I fix this? [07:11] Dayofswords: Yeah, it's called ntp [07:11] KB1JWQ: i've been a few times, but i wouldn't say go to an irc chat to LEARN a langauge. maybe for getting help, sure. or if you already know a bit /topic is fine [07:11] tuxwulf: smart move, it takes some time to find your way around the community resources, but they can be lifesavers indeed :) [07:11] Dayofswords, ntpdate [07:12] Serverian, yes...but there's not the 3D desktop option you know? [07:12] KB1JWQ: of ourse, this is just MHO [07:12] aspidites: Heh, the topic there includes a link to said tutorial. :) [07:12] just ntpdate in terminal? [07:12] 'course, I'm assuming a bit of clue on the part of the questioner, which may be an invalid assumption. [07:12] Dayofswords: No, ntp. ntpdate does something slightly different. [07:12] I have MC 4.6.2-pre1 on Ubuntu 9.04. Two things were wrong after installation: 1) by default internal editor was turned off and 2) Alt-o shortcut (to get another panel to open same location as in the current) doesn't work as expected - it opens parent dir instead of current. Can anybody confirm? How to fix this... malicious behavior? [07:12] KB1JWQ: touche. never bothered clicking on it, considering i just recently got hyperlinks working in terminals [07:12] after updating to the latest updates evolution now crashes everytime i try "NEW" message. Anyone else seeing this? [07:12] Servian, and some themes on gnome-look.org just working for compiz [07:12] aspidites: Copy/paste works wonders though. :) [07:12] Johnny_B_Good, actually it is the 3d desktop. You may want more options and there is a package for that. === am4zin is now known as amazin [07:12] ok I did sudo Xorg -configure [07:12] are compiz themes...and I don't know how to install 'em [07:13] KB1JWQ: i also just recently learned how to copy/paste from a terminal ;-) (shift+insert) [07:13] Servian how do I install it? [07:13] i did sudo ntp got "sudo: ntp: command not found" [07:13] KB1JWQ: using urxvt, so no gui right-clicking here [07:13] btw, by recently i mean a few months ago [07:13] Dayofswords, You have to install it. [07:14] oh [07:14] Dayofswords: ntp is not the command name. [07:14] Dayofswords, the package is ntpdate [07:14] Hi, how am i able to see a full detailed version of xorg.conf(driver names etc), as opposed to the default ubuntu gives me? [07:14] Dayofswords: It's a service, not a command. go read, www.ntp.org [07:14] Dayofswords, sudo ap-get install ntpdate [07:14] dn4: Xorg -config ./ will let you test the xorg.conf file that Xorg -configure generated [07:14] Servian, how can I install the compiz themes from gnome-look.org like that: http://gnome-look.org/content/show.php/Vortigo+++(+3D%2BVU%2BBeryl%2BDock+)?content=55440 [07:14] Dayofswords: It's probably already installed and working. Click the clock on your desktop and look for the settings. [07:14] dn4: ctrl+backspace to kill x === nicolas_ is now known as Guest21747 [07:15] aspidites: ITYM ctrl alt backspace? [07:15] hi! http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=44098 how repair? [07:15] KB1JWQ, Dayofswords: one could use the ntpdate (the client) to sync the time [07:15] KB1JWQ: youre right. duno why i forgot to add the alt [07:15] jp_sf: Yeah, that's a one-off, though. [07:15] KB1JWQ: most of my bindings use alt, so i just forget it [07:15] Dayofswords: You don't want to use ntpdate either. you should see ntpd in your process list. [07:15] ntp keeps it synced. [07:16] Johnny_B_Good, install compizconfig-settings-manager [07:16] Servian, just with apt? [07:16] KB1JWQ, true I never cron a ntpdate but it is possible [07:16] KB1JWQ: heck, you're talking to a guy that swapped his caps lock and ctrl keys ;-) [07:16] so sudo apt-get install compizconfig-settings-manager? [07:16] can gnome panel go across 2 screens in twinview? [07:16] my wallpaper does just need my panel to also [07:16] jp_sf: Most ntpd implementations either do an ntpdate before service start, or use step-tickers to do the same thing. [07:16] Johnny_B_Good, that should do it [07:16] Too much drift and ntpd gives up, won't correct. [07:17] thank you very much...I'll try it right now [07:17] KB1JWQ: I'm pretty sure Ubuntu runs ntpdate at boot by default. [07:19] haloo [07:19] the process resoruce graph is smoth and pretty... [07:19] KB1JWQ, I'm not sure, ntpd don't use ntpdate, it uses ntpq to sync the hardwre as well, I think... [07:19] I have noticed that the sound's mute multimedia button indicates that the sound is muted [07:20] after updating to the latest updates evolution now crashes everytime i try "NEW" message. Anyone else seeing this? [07:20] jp_sf: No, ntpq is for querying ntpds. [07:20] now even my headphones have no sound :( [07:20] Servian, so and know just install the compiz theme by drag'n drop into so Appereance? [07:20] isn't there an su option that essentially makes you a root user? [07:21] so, how exactly do you sync time [07:21] Geoffrey2: sudo su OR sudo -s [07:21] ok it works now [07:21] thanks everyone [07:22] Dayofswords: run ntpq -p at terminal. If you see some output, you are already syncing time. [07:22] sonali, thanks [07:22] Geoffrey2: mention not :) [07:22] Johnny_B_Good, Two points. If you spell my name right, I'll see your messages quicker. Two. Idon't understand your last message. [07:23] gufiii [07:24] Serverian, I'm sorry....well I ask how to install the compiz themes...

Confirm with lsof [07:29] xaaab: what is using the ram try the command top to find out [07:29] Severian, ok thank you so far [07:29] TonyTheTiger: See IM please.

[07:39] isn't xorg the windowing system [07:39] admin_masu3701: it's going to kill your graphical desktop [07:39] admin_masu3701: xorg is xservers process... [07:39] right [07:39] sonali: no not yet, trying to remove it from apt cache if its there per Severians idea [07:39] yoyit2: great [07:39] admin_masu3701: so unless you are in a text console only i would suggest not to do that.. [07:39] Dayofswords, for example. sudo ntpdate ntp.ubuntu.com pool.ntp.org [07:39] admin_masu3701: how much cpu is it using? [07:39] Dayofswords: sync clock like on the command line? maybe ntpdate? [07:39] yoyit2: for your info -r means recursive, it will delete everything within a folder recursively [07:40] sonali: but why wouldnt i autimatically have admin rights on teh trash?? i am the only user on the pc? [07:40] 70 % [07:40] sonali: Usually used with -f as well [07:40] and npviewer.bin 80% [07:40] ive been on ubuntu since version 7 as main desktop - im thinking of moving back to windows as this jaunty is so far the worst one ive had. usb plug and play is pointless. wpa2 non-existant. at least there were configs and such n other versions. im scared to plug in my webcam or printer. [07:40] yoyit2: maybe the files were deleted by a root user? or maybe the files were just too big... [07:41] KB1JWQ: yea that too [07:41] admin_masu3701: try killing that npviewer, it might be that Xorg process cpu usage also drops down after that (i experience same problems with firefox/xorg) [07:41] 5 May 23:41:06 ntpdate[6437]: the NTP socket is in use, exiting [07:41] is what i get after sudo ntpdate ntp.ubuntu.com pool.ntp.org [07:41] DCurrahee: that is a good idea, especially if that wasn't installed completed [07:41] anyone knows how to make firefox linux render web pages as firefox windows? [07:42] DCurrahee: completely I meant [07:42] yoyit2, So do ls -l ~/.local/share/Trash/info/ [07:42] vega: is the command killall -9 npviewer.bin? [07:42] sonali: that's just `apt-get clean` right? am I missing something? that doesnt seem to effect it at all [07:42] luddite: Ust a previous Ubuntu version that works for you. Jaunty is great on my Desktop, bad on my brother's laptop. [07:42] admin_masu3701: well, you could first try without the "-9" [07:42] severian "command not found" [07:42] admin_masu3701: if it doesn't kill it, then use -9 [07:43] dsdeiz: you mean make the server think your using windows? I know it can be done. [07:43] i got wine installed and then i installed google sketchup and tried to open it and itcrashed .???help [07:43] Dayofswords, That means you have a ntp daemon running. Your time is probably on its way to being right. You understand that the daemon adjusts the time gradually to bring it back to the right value. [07:43] sacarlson: not really. i'm just having problems when it comes to webpages rendering [07:43] DCurrahee: maybe you should disable the third party source and update ? [07:43] yoyit2, ls is is there. Your system has to have that. [07:43] what p2p clients are there available in ubuntu?? [07:43] dsdeiz what do u mean by render webpages [07:43] it looks different on both firefox linux and windows [07:43] khensthoth i left the 8.10 kernals on but my upgrade has deemed them non-funtional with wpa2 also [07:43] redrebel: A lot. [07:43] I have amule, but it doesn't seem to work for me [07:43] kjkjl: you should check out winehq [07:44] severian: cool and i did not know that, i'm trying to migrate from windows, which is instant [07:44] vega: killin it stop the video am watchin on youtube...so i get flash is the problem [07:44] sonali: it's not a source, it's a deb file im trying to install using dpkg -i [07:44] dsdeiz: sometimes the server will give different pages depending on who they send it to. are you sure they send the same thing. [07:44] luddite: Try a fresh install of 8.10? [07:44] admin_masu3701: What flash version did you get? Maybe you want flash 10 [07:44] DCurrahee: ohh... [07:44] admin_masu3701: ah ok.. well no surprise flash causes problems [07:44] Severian: it says no such file or directory [07:45] is it possible to edit the size of the grub box? i would like it a little smaller [07:45] hey guys [07:45] i have flash 10 [07:45] dsdeiz: it should render the same [07:45] any body here can help me [07:45] sonali: anything i try to install with apt comes back with that error about that library, i don't think it has anything to do with that deb package, just happened to be what i was trying when i ran into this [07:45] manpoole: that's a weird demand...

[07:45] heh [07:45] sonali what is winhq . i cant find it in the repositories [07:45] well its to flow well with a custom grub splash [07:45] Dayofswords, the ntpdate command throws the time change in all at once. the ntp daemon does it gradually. Gradually is better because cron won't miss any events. [07:45] and the text and box just screw up the nice picture [07:45] kjkjl: http://www.winehq.org/ [07:46] dvdnn: you need help to type: sudo apt-get install songbird ? [07:46] DCurrahee: its weird..I think you should ask the problem again... [07:46] yoyit2, exactly what command did you put in. The ls command is built into the shell.

[07:53] Kartagis: ohh I pity you [07:53] sonali: not sure.. the one it told me to get.. it works, but RARELY [07:53] DCurrahee: I am on 8.10 [07:53] how is jaunty? [07:53] So you are connected then dvdnn? [07:54] yoyit2, and if you just type the three characters l, then s, then return, what happens? [07:54] dsdeiz: it is young [07:54] sonali: i was running 8.10 for like 4 months and just switched to 9.04 like a week ago [07:54] yoyit2: I am waiting for some more time [07:54] stats p [07:54] maybe i should try installing it in my virtualos [07:55] hehe [07:55] Severian: what do you mean character "return"?? [07:55] Severian: haha [07:55] yoyit2: return = press enter key [07:55] Kartagis, I have had that happen on some systems. You may need to edit the /etc/X11/xorg.conf file by hand. [07:55] sonali: what?? time for what? [07:56] yoyit2: I am waiting for some more time before I will go ahead with jaunty, just giving it a bit more time [07:56] yoyit2, It may be labelled Enter on your keyboard. [07:56] Hi. I've been using 8.04 for a long time without problems. but since my upgrade to 9.04, my xorg has a memory leak. when I leave it running for several hours it consumes almost 5 gb of ram and it consumes a lot of CPU time, although I'm not at my PC. is this a known issue? any fixes? [07:56] Severian, i did several times, but it gets re-written when i reboot [07:56] Severian: ok so it came up with some random stuff in blue and green [07:57] Kartagis, Interesting. After you change it, try doing a chmod to make it read only. [07:57] sonali: so this could just be a jaunty problem? [07:57] yoyit2: I can't say, I was just telling my preference, I haven't followed your problem very well since the Trash cleared [07:58] Severian, but this never happens on my laptop, and i don't want to edit xorg.conf by hand [07:58] yoyit2, random stuff you say, Could you copy it to a file and post it on a pastebin? Does that last part make sense to you? [07:58] Kartagis, OK, then enjoy 800 x 600. [07:58] Kartagis: if you want to reset xorg settings you could try resetting them [07:59] Kartagis: simply delete your xorg.conf file and reboot [07:59] Kartagis: a new one will be created [07:59] sonali, I'll try that [07:59] Kartagis: if your using some graphics card and proprietary drivers, you should try reseting xorg settings with them [08:00] Kartagis: like nvidia-settings command [08:00] Kartagis: I don't remember the exact command check it out [08:00] Kartagis: it depends on your installation, xorg drivers [08:00] sonali, no, my display card if o/b [08:00] but removing xorg.conf is a safe one to begin with [08:01] Severian: http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/m2dd60299 [08:01] Kartagis: hey instead of removing xorg.conf rename it to xorg.conf.backup [08:01] sonali, X is trying to be smart and auto-detect stuff these days. On some systems, it gets it wrong. The fallback mode it to 800 x 600. On some systems, you have to manually patch the xorg.conf file for now. [08:01] Severian: I know, I am hoping its smart enough to help him out [08:01] sonali, I'll try that [08:02] Kartagis: ok, if that doesn't help you a lot, you will have to look deeper into manyally patching xorg.conf file as Severian suggested [08:02] sonali: ok so i think i figured out the youtube problem, but.. i went to redownload flash player, and it says therer is not enough room on disk i have 50GBS of friggin space! so maybe theres no room in a temp folder wich doesnt alow youtube to buffer [08:02] Hey there ikonia how are you? [08:03] yoyit2: oh...you might want to try and clear your browsers private data [08:03] yoyit2, OK, that looked good. It was not really random at all. Let's try one a little more complicated. Type the 6 characters l, then s, then space, then -, then l, then Enter. [08:03] does anyone know of a network watcher or something on ubuntu? our download limit is being killed and I would like to know which of our computers is doing it [08:04] kaveh: that sounds interesting I would like to know too [08:04] sonali: hello [08:04] kaveh, The best way is with a smart router/nat. Get an old PC with 2 nics. Install IPCOP and it can track that. [08:04] sonali: um ive BARELY used my browser at all, it shouldnt be full === desti_T2 is now known as desti [08:04] how can i start the hardware drivers gui from command line? [08:05] yoyit2: that's weird...did you do something out of the way with the partition manager during isntall? [08:05] yoyit2, browser caches fill up pretty fast. And, deleting their cache does not hurt anything. [08:05] ikonia: have you troubleshooted sound cards> [08:05] brb [08:06] Severian: http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/m22dcb357 [08:07] sonali nope i did it all the noob way.. didnt change a thing [08:07] Severian: honestly if ive looked up 50 google pages since my fresh install i wouldnt be lying === Pasbar_Team is now known as Pasbar_Team|AWAY [08:09] yoyit2, That looks good, too. Now we'll try the next one. I won't spell this one out as much and we'll see how it does. Note that the first part is just the same as the first 5 characters of the last one. ls -l ~/.local/ [08:09] Severian: total 4 [08:09] drwx------ 5 daniel daniel 4096 2009-05-02 15:33 share [08:10] yoyit2, is share one of them? [08:10] yoyit2, so try ls -l ~/.local/share/ [08:11] Severian: it says "totem, rhythembox, and trash" [08:12] ok, so try ls -l ~/.local/share/trash/ [08:12] !trash [08:12] The location of Trash has changed since 8.04, it is now located in ~/.local/share/Trash | Looking for the trash in previous versions: ~/.Trash === Pasbar_Team|AWAY is now known as Pasbar_Team [08:13] hello [08:13] sonali i cleared my cache, and now youtube doenst do anything at all [08:14] btw, how can one disable creation of .trash on a usb stick, i think it's silly that when you delete stuff from a usb stick it just gets moved to the .trash on the stick [08:15] I'm installing a customized version of ubuntu server [08:15] my problem is to add xserver-xorg and xfonts* [08:16] ok, How did ls -l ~/.local/share/trash/ work out? [08:16] how to get the configuration-manager for compiz for enabling the cube and so on? [08:16] therefor, I parsed the Packages file of an alternate version on my local repository in order to keep xserver package, xfonts and their dependencies [08:17] when I try to install, I get an error that apt doesn't find the package although it's inside the base [08:17] does anyone has a hint ? [08:18] jeroome: which package? [08:18] jeroome: you can't just apt-get install xserver-xorg ? [08:18] no, xserver-xorg doesn't exist on an server repository [08:18] iceroot, install compizconfig-settings-manager [08:18] i'm installing over pxe [08:19] jeroome: add to the repository list? [08:19] so I have a local repository made from a server iso [08:19] and I added an alternate repository [08:19] hi [08:19] can someone help me out with connecting to the internet wirelessly? [08:20] I cannot seem to get it to work [08:20] do you see wireless networks? [08:20] but in that case, every package inside the alternate repository is installed [08:20] no [08:20] and the system is becoming to big [08:20] RichiV, need to get the proper driver [08:20] RichiV, what version are you runing? [08:20] 9.04 [08:20] and no i don't see any wireless networks [08:21] RichiV goto system --> administration --> hardware drivers! [08:21] on my bar at the top (idk what its called) shows nothing [08:21] if I take away some packages of the Package file, do I have to modify something else too ? [08:21] jeroome: what did you install to make every pakage inside the repository install? [08:21] @jerome nope [08:22] AH there it is? i did it a few hours earlier but nothing happened >_< [08:22] magic dude thnx alot === evilGary is now known as Gary [08:22] vlc player is playing m2ts files really strangely - audio is fine, video lags - please help! [08:22] hey knoxville can i add u as a friend? i might need somemore help [08:22] I just copied the contents of the ubuntu server iso and in another folder the contents of an alternate iso [08:22] actually video doesn't lag it just flickers... [08:22] RichiV, just pm me for now [08:23] ok sure thing [08:23] lol how do i do that? [08:23] i just switched over around 7:00 pm PST [08:23] oh god :( [08:23] from windows [08:23] lol i'm so pro at windows [08:23] Hi. How am i able to view a detailed xorg.conf(driver names etc) as opposed to the default xorg.conf in ubuntu? [08:23] but i hate it [08:23] guys please help me...my systems sound isn't working, it was working in the headphones earlier [08:24] If I understood right, if there is only 1 package description inside de Packages.gz file, only that one is going to be available ? [08:24] YES I THINK IT WORKS! [08:24] sonali: What did you try, and what happened before the headphones doesn't work? [08:24] khensthoth: well I was trying to get my laptop speakers to work [08:25] wait so if i click the raising the bar thing on my system tray, it shows nothing to go to to scan networksa? [08:25] does anyone use sun virtual box [08:25] should i restart vcomputer? [08:25] i use wine [08:25] nignaztic, I run it. [08:25] it actually works quite well [08:25] khensthoth: but now even my headphones don't work, i've recompiled and reinstalled latest ALSA [08:25] jeroome: when I played with this I had many of the same package but it normaly installed the latist version. [08:25] you know when u start the VM [08:25] nignaztic, me 2 [08:25] is there a way to access to bios [08:25] hmm... y? [08:26] sonali: What brand of laptop, what sound card? [08:26] nignaztic, Not on the open source edition. On the PEUL version, you press F12 [08:26] im trying to get ubuntu to run in vista but i keep getting this error [08:27] i press f12 but that is for boot devices [08:27] khensthoth: compaq presario cq45, lspci -v | grep Audio = 00:14.2 Audio device: ATI Technologies Inc SBx00 Azalia (Intel HDA), 01:05.1 Audio device: ATI Technologies Inc RS780 Azalia controller [08:27] nignaztic, that is as close to a BIOS as you get with virtualBox. [08:28] I GET Grub Error 17 [08:28] nignaztic, Most things you adjust by going to the properties page for the VM. [08:28] rhythmbox was playing an audio cd yesterday and I could hear it in my headphones, now the rhythmbox doesnt start playing the song at all, its stationary [08:28] any way to fix that? [08:28] nignaztic, It is probably a bad CD. Try booting a real compute with it. [08:28] dude [08:28] sonali: Have you tried editing alsa-base? [08:29] im running a dual boot vista64/ubuntu64 [08:29] they both work fine [08:29] khensthoth: yes i have tried, I added options snd-hda-intel enable_msi=1 [08:29] hey guys, I've got a remote server that has set the root partition as read only, was mounted as /dev/sda1 on / type ext3 (rw,relatime,errors=remount-ro). I've run e2fsck and it's cleared a few orphaned inodes, but that's all. I can't mount -o remount,rw /dev/sda1, it says "mount: block device /dev/sda1 is write-protected, mounting read-only". The only thing I can do is reboot. [08:29] nignaztic: just had some one two days ago with that problem error 17 [08:29] any ideas? Is it a hardware failure, something like the HDD's SMART monitoring telling the OS there's something wrong? It's happened on 8.10 about a week ago, and now on 9.04 [08:29] but i wanna run my ubuntu inside windows [08:30] nignaztic, run vmware server [08:30] sacarlson: any answer? [08:30] nignaztic: you could try portable ubuntu [08:30] im not a genius [08:30] :P [08:30] nignaztic, If the CD won't boot inside a VM, then check the CD. That is why I suggest booting a computer with it. [08:30] I think they reinstalled the mbr in grub [08:31] is there any other possibility to install xserver-xorg on a server edition over pxe ? [08:31] so [08:31] nignaztic: you could try vitualization, virtualBox or VMWare, but portableubuntu is not so bad either if you just want to try it out [08:31] sonali: There seem to multiple workarounds in the forum, some work for some people, but not for others. Have you tried all of them? [08:31] I've not rebooted the machine yet, which I need to do ASAP, so that I can find out what's wrong, but it's got me stumped, any ideas, anything I can try to see if it is SMART causing it? [08:31] nignaztic, And, you don't actually need a real CD. I boot my VMs off of their iso images to do the installs. [08:31] khensthoth: I have tried most that I found [08:31] Severian, me 2 iso all the way! [08:31] run the virtual box with the ubuntu cd? [08:31] khensthoth: but my headphones were working yesterday now even they don't work [08:31] khensthoth: if I could just get them back to working I would be fine [08:32] khensthoth: right now only the pc beep can be heard in the headphones [08:32] khensthoth: nothing else [08:32] guys I have noticed one thing btw [08:32] sonali: Before you compile and install the new alsa drivers, the headphone jack work right? [08:32] nignaztic, You can boot a VirtualBox VM with an Ubuntu CD. It works fine. You can alternatively use a CD image file, called an iso. [08:32] as soon as ubuntu starts to boot, the mute multimedia button on my laptop indicates that the sound is muted [08:33] khensthoth: no they worked with them too, I installed realtek.com.tw drivers today, but they didn't work so I tried reverting their effect by recompiling and reinstalling ALSA [08:33] nignaztic, Maybe I should ask what version of VirtualBox you have. I use version 2.1 and 2.2 a lot. I have not used older versions. [08:33] thank you guys [08:33] exit [08:34] sonali: So has the realtek drivers been removed? [08:34] hmmmm [08:34] im havin a rough night with this vmware crao [08:35] khensthoth: I will do a make uninstall [08:35] nignaztic, come into the #vmware channel [08:35] join #ubuntu-server [08:36] Severian: Dayofswords: i just came back, and it seems msgs for Dayofswords get logged to my hilight window. probably because the first four letters are the same? lol [08:36] help: my ubuntu cant auto detect my generic usb webcam.. how please? [08:37] dayo, The irc programs usually do a simple pattern match. In your case if dayo is in the message, it gets highlighted. [08:37] can I install ubuntu without without deleting my XP? [08:37] ziuzia415: Yes. [08:37] ziuzia415: Try Wubi, or Dual Boot. [08:38] !Wubi [08:38] Wubi is an Ubuntu installer for Windows users that allows you to install and uninstall Ubuntu like a Windows application, in a simple and safe way. http://wubi-installer.org/support.php for troubleshooting. Please file bugs at http://launchpad.net/wubi/+filebug. [08:38] ahtmly2k, That's kind of funny. Was it supposed to be? There is no generic camera. [08:38] khensthoth thanks :) [08:38] mell i dont know what brand it is.. [08:39] its not logitech dats 4 sure [08:39] some chinese-made crap [08:39] ziuzia415: If you don't want to mess with partitioning, Wubi is prefered. have fun. [08:39] but it works fine on my vista [08:39] ahtmly2k, Is it a USB camera? Is so, type the command lsusb at a terminal prompt and see what you get. [08:40] is there a way to upgrade from 8.04 to 9.04 via package updater, without burning a cd? === rand0maway is now known as rand0mbits [08:40] khensthoth i downloaded Ubuntu, may i use that .iso with Daemon Tools, or I need to write it on a CD? [08:40] rand0mbits, of course [08:40] ahtmly2k, Upfront I'll tell you. A lot of cameras work in Windows and not in Linux. The manufacturers won't provide information for people to write Linux drivers. [08:40] !upgrade [08:40] For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes - see also http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/upgrading [08:40] ziuzia415: I think you can mount it through DaemonTools. Wubi should run automatically. [08:41] khensthoth, won't wubi reboot and expect to read a CD at some point? [08:41] khensthoth Wubi doesn't require Image CD? [08:41] well.. I've never used wubi, so, nevermind, I dunno. [08:41] ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh [08:41] got my headphones sound back [08:41] peace all. [08:42] dat sux [08:42] ziuzia415: I think the Ubuntu CD can be used as a install CD for Wubi. I am not too sure. Haven't used Wubi in a very very long time. [08:42] sonali, and are you going to leave it working that way? Or try again for what's behind door number 2? [08:42] sonali: Great! How did you do it? [08:43] khensthoth: well I disabled my IEC958 checkbox under my HDMI mixed options [08:43] khensthoth: I think that solved it [08:43] Severian: I am ready for door number 2 [08:43] hi i just upgraded to the latest ubuntu 9.04 ... its not playing dvd movies anymore .. is there a patch or codec i need to install? [08:43] Severian: but what is it/ [08:44] sonali. oops, you lost. It is a donkey wearing a lei. [08:44] vegombrei: you probably have to reinstall the dvd decoding stuff [08:44] !dvd | vegombrei [08:44] vegombrei: 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 [08:44] Severian: as I told you, the mute multimedia button indicates that its muted all the time [08:44] Hello , when i go to "Places > Network" i can see all computer names thats connected to my local network , does it possible to trace the ip number of the specific computer by the network name ? === Roozbeh|Away is now known as RoozbehOnline [08:45] ok so i installed xmms2 and i cant find the Graphical player [08:45] sonali, as I told you, your audio chip is not well supported in Linux at this time. [08:45] Slart: what dvd decoding stuff? [08:45] my laptop's mute multimedia button indicates that its muted, sound in speakers doesn't work, I am unable to unmute it [08:45] Kate_344: you can try ping nameofcomputer [08:46] Severian: but I don't think its the drivers...if I could just unmute my speakers... [08:46] Drikan, it should install under Applications/Sound and Video. [08:46] Severian: is there a comand I could try?? [08:46] sonali, that is the drivers. [08:46] vegombrei: decss, it can't be included in the default ubuntu distro for legal reasons.. so you'll have to install it yourself [08:46] Severian: oh [08:47] sonali, you could get the source for your drivers and start hacking. That is probably your only real choice. [08:47] Severian: i would love to! [08:47] sacarlson: not working , "ping: unknown host computer1" [08:47] Severian: where could I get the source?? [08:47] right i see the tray but not the xmms its self [08:47] Kate_344: network you mean samba? [08:47] I'd start looking on google. You know it is the RS780 something or other. [08:48] Severian: ok I am on it [08:48] sacarlson: yes [08:48] Drikan, what do you mean, the tray? [08:48] one sec i think i fugured out what i did wrong [08:49] Drikan, can I breathe now? === Jean is now known as Guest93604 [08:49] yea i installed the back end but not the Gxmms [08:49] sacarlson: so does it possible to get the ip address by smb network name ? [08:49] Slart: how? [08:50] anyone know how to install codecs so that i can play any and every media? [08:50] Kate_344, it depends on your network. try nslookup [08:50] vegombrei: you saw what ubottu told you [08:50] Kate_344 http://oreilly.com/catalog/samba/chapter/book/ch07_03.html [08:50] vegombrei: you were given three links.. did you try reading what the info on those links said? [08:50] Slart: yes that didnt help .. ubottu asked me to get devede ... i dont wanna create dvds i wanna be able to watch em [08:51] vegombrei: try mplayer or VLC [08:51] Kate_34 I think the comand is nmblookup [08:51] vegombrei: they will play just about anything you want. [08:51] vegombrei: "For multimedia issues, this page has useful information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats " [08:51] vegombrei: you looked at that webpage? [08:51] vegombrei: I recommend VLC ( www.videolan.org ), however to each their own. Its also available in synaptic. [08:51] sacarlson: thanks working [08:52] cool [08:52] vegombrei, VLC comes close. Read the page you were sent. But, no system can play every media. You can get to most, though. [08:52] hey on my other laptop when i load stuff up the display theirs lines running parralel down it. it desorts colours in the bios eg black = red it flickers alot and live booted up from the boot cd and it does the same ... first this can't affect the performance of ubuntu and obously its still usable and second does anyone know what might be causing it ? [08:52] VLC plays *mostly* everything. Thats a true statement. Same goes for mplayer. [08:52] They come with a lot of libraries so you don't have to install any external codecs. [08:52] roadmap: even vlc fails to play the dvd now ... thing is i recently upgraded to the latest ubuntu version ... it just stopped playing .. first i looked up medibuntu but thats all sorted .. just dont understand why it wont play dvds anymore [08:52] vegombrei: are you playing the DVD with dvdsimple:// ? [08:53] how to install OOo from deb.tar.gz [08:53] roadmap: vlc [08:53] Kulithalai, sudo dpkg -i OOo.deb [08:53] btw could this help somebody in helping me ? http://www.alsa-project.org/db/?f=4bcd9ca221e3204a8e5e382bd5a6eba85b7466e1 [08:53] vegombrei: VLC has different options for playing DVDs. One of them is dvdsimple://. I think the option is "Skip DVD Menus" or something when loading a DVD. I'd have to check. [08:53] vegombrei: The latest VLC (0.9.9?) breaks that feature. [08:54] vegombrei: The option is "No DVD Menus". If you're playing a DVD in VLC using that option, VLC (as of the latest version) will crash, or refuse to play. [08:55] If you have that enabled, try disabling it and playing a DVD. [08:55] roadmap: it says Playback failure: [08:55] DVDRead could not read -1/4 blocks at 0x01. [08:55] hello to all people :) [08:56] vegombrei: try apt-get install libdvdcss2 libdvdnav4 [08:56] vegombrei: see if they are already installed. [08:56] jjrUbu, don't discriminate against us cyborg folk now ;) [08:57] I wanted install OOo 3 in intrepid thus just removed core supplied OOo [08:57] roadmap: installing .. [08:57] vegombrei: we just found your problem :) assuming both install. [08:58] Kulithalai and then? [08:58] vegombrei: after they're installed then try playing the DVD with VLC (you may want to restart VLC first) [08:58] OOO-3.1.0 has been down loaded in tar.gz [08:59] hey guys [08:59] how do i change the boot order in ubuntu? [09:00] RichiH: I want to say its /boot/grub/menu.lst but I'll check [09:00] er wrong Rich [09:00] RichiV: see my message to the other Richi :) [09:01] Hey there every one ....is there is a good network game for line [09:01] linux* [09:01] vegombrei: success... ?

[09:02] roadmap: something weird happened at the medibuntu page [09:02] thanks roadmap, some one mentionedf to me that a third party repository might be best, is that a better option than a deb file? [09:02] vegombrei: hm.. Give it a shot. If it works, let me know! === yacc__ is now known as yacc [09:02] mmmm [09:02] haris: The website only gives .tar.gz [09:02] haris: Most likely if there is a third party repository available, the glabels website would probably have a tutorial/mini guide on how to add it. [09:03] haris: http://www.getdeb.net/app/gLabels 2.24 on GetDeb. [09:03] haris: The only benefit you'd get with a repository is that when the repository is updated, you'd get the latest version. [09:03] IC, I'd already downloaded the tar.gz file but am a little unsure about compiling, would that override a synaptic install? [09:03] RichiV, You adjust /boot/grub/menu.lst to change the default to be loaded. Be careful editing this file. You can make your system unbootable. [09:03] galaman [09:03] peña troner [09:03] dwaaaaaaaaaaa [09:03] paquetes! [09:04] @khensthoth, I need 2.2.5, bug fix :) [09:04] freaks informáticos [09:04] haris: No but if you're unexperienced or worried it may be wise to go with a .deb file. [09:04] haris, probably. Try checkinstall [09:04] eeeeeeeeeeeeeiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii [09:04] holaaa [09:04] #ubuntu-advanced [09:04] dont know they dont make hardcore games for linux :(((((( [09:04] daaaaaaaaaaaaaa [09:04] oh no problem [09:04] haris: if you install a .deb file its still managed by apt/synaptic. So you can uninstall/install through those applications. If you compile with a .tar.gz you're responsible for your own mess (if you make one). [09:04] roadmap: sure thing ... brb [09:04] I love linux pinguin [09:04] how can I install OOs from tar.gz dld from OOO.org [09:04] yeah yeah [09:04] ok, I'll look for a deb fle, do I have to find a jaunty specific deb file? [09:04] kamekameka [09:04] file [09:04] It make me feel god [09:04] haris: No. If itsa 2.2.5 deb file, you're good to go. [09:05] bansaiiiiiiiiiii [09:05] haris, You would have to look at the config files to be sure. Probably not, though. Source installs will likely go to /usr/local/bin, while the one from the repository went to /usr/bin. [09:05] Kulithalai, decompress, enter, follow instructions in INSTALL.txt or something like that [09:05] ok thanks, any suggestion to good deb archive sites? [09:05] haris: Most likely glabels website will have it labeled as either "Debian" or "Debian/Ubuntu". [09:05] yay a troll to b righten our day [09:05] o yeah [09:05] ok, I'll start on the official website and see what I find [09:05] thanks all [09:06] OK let's go [09:06] No problem. I wish you luck. [09:06] that's right [09:06] i agree [09:06] Hi, one question [09:06] who is Linus Torvalds? [09:06] mi father [09:06] RichiV: Any success editing your boot order? [09:06] say me your question [09:06] Hello Guys, I am running ubuntu 9.04 and I have 2 other partitions that i would like to access while remotely on the machine, I can access these partitions while using the xserver. Can anyone help with this? [09:07] very good [09:07] nope lol my computer froze and i dint see what you said =[ [09:07] Go home! [09:07] RichiV: The file to edit your boot order is /boot/grub/menu.lst [09:07] ahora [09:07] lol i was trying to run Guild Wars in Wine [09:07] yankes go home! [09:07] Bye guys [09:07] or gays [09:07] do i put that in the terminal [09:07] RichiV: I'll give you the warning that someone above mentioned - be careful editing it. If you mess it up, you may make your operating system unable to boot. [09:07] No good it is extracted in a folder in home folder thereafter no development [09:08] haris: Did a quick search and didn't find any 2.2.5 .deb. Guess you will have to use the tar.gz [09:08] RichiV: You would edit it with a text editor, like vi or kate or gedit. Whatever you are comfortable with. [09:08] khensthoth: They do have a 2.2.4 deb available. Depends on why he needs 2.2.5 though.' [09:08] RichiV, be careful. You can make your system unbootable. [09:08] Khensthoth. yeah having difficullty finding it too [09:08] ok i see thank you so much... i think i'll just keep windows on so I can play some of my games without lagg or freezing [09:08] roadmap: He said bugfix. =) [09:08] having a problem with gnome-keyring [09:08] Ah. [09:09] RichiV: You can find really detailed/documented tutorials online for editing your menu.lst file. The file is very straight forward but can be intimidating to new users. [09:09] how do i get to this file /boot/grub/menu.lst Roadmap? [09:09] do i just search for it? [09:09] no [09:09] RichiV: If you want to access it from the terminal, try: sudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst [09:09] roadmap, I upgraded from 8.04 and now my labels are displaying weird and the program is behaving oddly when selecting things. Checked the glabels site and thee's been a fix for gtk 2.16, I'm hoping that will fix my issues :) [09:10] ok i see [09:10] bah, I hate cable modems [09:10] can anyone help me with mounting and accessing drives remotely? [09:10] ok can one of u give me a link to documentation on how to edit this? [09:10] help why my browser addons in firefox doesn't work any clue? [09:10] RichiV: This may work, it may not: http://makingtheswitch.wordpress.com/2007/04/29/changing-grub-boot-order-to-boot-windows-xp-before-ubuntu/ [09:11] thank you so much for all this help guys u guys are really helpful [09:11] RichiV: Just be sure to adapt everything to your kernel version/uuid/etc. Don't just blind copy and paste. That may end up bad :). [09:11] RichiV, you are just going to change one line. Look for the line near the top that starts with default. [09:11] True. [09:12] ok got it lol [09:12] lol wow im to lazy XD [09:12] :) [09:12] It is just one line if you dont care about menu order. [09:13] help why my browser addons in firefox doesn't work any clue? [09:13] ubuntistas, maybe they are disabled. [09:13]  ubuntistas: all your addons? [09:14] nooo severian i checked after upgrade nothing works as usual [09:14] sacarison most of them [09:14] Could be a damaged profile. [09:14] With Gnome, is it possible to make the app taskbar on the bottom two rows tall? [09:14] ubuntistas, Try uninstalling one and then reinstall it. [09:14] You may need to backup the important parts of your Firefox profile and reinstall your addons. [09:14]  ubuntistas: I had to go back to firefox2 for watir jssh [09:15] :( or we just got trolled. [09:15] ok guys thnx for all of the support in changing boot order, but i think ill stay with ubuntu in second because my dad knows way less about computers than I, and let alone having him LEARN ubuntu will be a problem [09:15] Thank you [09:15] Severian: wooooooooooohoooooooooooooooo sound works!!! [09:15] RichiV: no problem! [09:15]  ubuntistas: I also failed to get firebug to work with firefox 3 [09:15] sonali: Even the speaker? [09:15] sonali, Glad to hear it. What did you do? [09:16] yes the speakers too1!! [09:16] model=dell-m4-1 did the trick [09:16] in the sound config [09:16] sonali: But that was in one of the forum as well. =) [09:16] sonali, OK, that should have been obvious. ;-) [09:16] hi guys, when I mount my vfat filesystem from fstab everything is normal but I can't modify files in the root directory of that filesystem , any Ideas why ? [09:16] never tried it :) [09:16] I tried only hp-m4 [09:17] that's what i did with my addons but are not appearing in my left of the browser [09:17] Hello. I have installed python 2.5 and 2.6, apache2 and mod_python. Atm mod_python uses python 2.6. How could I make it use 2.5? [09:17] any clue? [09:17] Severian: :) [09:17] Hello, what size flash drive do i need to burn ubuntu netbook remix to? [09:18] pontecorvo, which do you get when you just type python at the command prompt. [09:18] i reinstalled my addons but nothing [09:18] jamieleshaw : one gig [09:18] `can someone tell me the command to start failsafe gnome session from terminal ? [09:18] i want to extract url from a text file urlview works but doesn't give output i can pipe through other apps any sugestions? [09:18] sonali: Anyway, good to hear you have your sound. =) [09:18] Severian: 2.5 [09:18] khensthoth: yea I feel good 2! thanks :) [09:18] ubuntistas: just go back to firefox2 works for me [09:19] sacarison any other solution? [09:19] when I mount my vfat filesystem from fstab everything is normal but I can't modify files in the root directory of that filesystem,but inside other folders its ok , any Ideas why ? [09:19] Severian: I've setted 2.5 as default, but mod_python still uses 2.6 [09:19] abe3k: I think you want to have user access set in fstab [09:20] does anyone know any solution for my addons in jaunty? [09:20] pontecorvo, I expected you to say 2.6. OK, so mod python is hard coded for /usr/bin/python2.6 Find the file with that string and change it to 2.5. [09:20] ubuntistas: Backup your Firefox profile folder in Ubuntu. Copy your Firefox profile in Windows over. See what happens. [09:20] : how do I do that ? [09:20] abe3k: I forget I would have to google it [09:20] : but it works for only the root directory right ? [09:20] khenstoth i have only ubuntu [09:20] abe3k: yes [09:20] i'm a bit baffled by the glabels tar.gz installation, I've tried 'sudo make' but I'm getting 'make: *** No targets specified and no makefile found. Stop.' [09:21] what am I doing wrong? [09:21] : ok thanks I'll look it up [09:21] i reinstalled firefox but nothing [09:21] !fstab [09:21] The /etc/fstab file indicates how drive partitions are to be used or otherwise integrated into the file system. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Fstab and http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/fstab.html and !Partitions [09:21] haris, try "./configure" [09:21] ok... [09:21] ubuntistas: What extension isn't working? [09:22] cooliris and media converter [09:22] i advice to read the textfiles/docs in the source-code-folder [09:22] ok, some progress there, its now telling me I need intltool 0.21 or later. [09:22] ubuntistas: reinstall as in firefox 2? [09:22] can i get itunes onto ubuntu? [09:22] haris, wonderful :) [09:22] Good morning [09:22] as an ubuntu program or must i use wine? [09:22] i reinstalled them but nothing i have firefox 3 [09:23] ubuntistas: you have to select firefox 2 install [09:23] RichiV, you can't [09:23] RichiV, you can try it but i would recommend something more useful [09:23] RichiV: There are better alternatives to iTunes on Linux. [09:23] iTunes sux ^^ [09:23] itunes is the pits. Why would anyone want something that works so poorly? [09:23] i know that, but i dont wanna rename all my songs [09:24] as they are incorrect [09:24] i don't want firefox 2 [09:24] sucks [09:24] ubuntistas: I think to get it to run as default I changed the link in /usr/bin other wise you have to run firefox2 [09:24] ubuntistas, Did you try starting a new profile? [09:24] is the rythm box any good? [09:24] i'm using it atm [09:24] I love it [09:24] how can i do that sacarison? [09:24] how severian? [09:24] Songbird is good too [09:25] ubuntistas: I am trying to install Cooliris. Hold on. [09:25] ubuntistas: oh in fact I now run firefox32 the 32 bit version on my amd64 [09:25] ubuntistas, just a moment. I have not done that in a while. === |Jason8| is now known as |Jason8|| === |Jason8|| is now known as |Jason8| [09:26] Very well [09:26] ubuntistas: I had other problems with the amd64 version If I recall but probly nothing you would have a problem with [09:26] hi, i have 2 laptops, one is using ubuntu other debian, the ubuntu one shares the internet with debian(it has 2 network cards), ithe problem is the following, after a while of running the network betwen the 2 laptops becames broken, the machines can't ping eachother (the problem is ibt debian one ) i try to restart networking, bring up and down the interfaces, only a reboot will fix it, i searched dmsg and i do not found any clue [09:26] ok just shoot sacarison === scfh_ is now known as scfh [09:26] hallo! how can I check if I have or have not java-JRE? [09:26] hi i got problems with ubuntu after updating to 9.04 [09:26] So, I have the following issues [09:26] ubuntistas: Cooliris works on my Firefox 3 === Pasbar_Team is now known as Pasbar_Team|AWAY [09:27] ok [09:27] When I try using any torrent client [09:27] ubuntistas: How did you install it? [09:27] Say, vuze or transmission [09:27] The thing falls apart when attempting to check big torrent files [09:27] Unfortunanly, that crashed my Ubuntu too, freezing it [09:27] Out of pure desperation, I decided to run memtest [09:27] 10,000 memory errors... [09:28] Can't be good [09:28] ubuntistas, Bring up a terminal prompt. cd to .mozilla/firefox. Do a ls -l and tell me what you see. [09:28] In any case, can somebody give me a hand? [09:28] as u did dude from firefox site [09:28] hello [09:28] ale_, "aptitude search java.-jre" and look at the flag at the beginning of the line [09:28] Cernex, I just applauded for you. [09:28] Severian: Huh? [09:28] Cernex, I gave you a hand [09:29] ... [09:29] rumpel2: the flag is "p" [09:29] hi.. how to upgrade from vbox binary to vbox-ose??? [09:29] Cernex, If you get memory error like that, you have real problems. [09:29] severian difficult for me explain [09:29] ale_, then its not installed [09:29] Severian: Well, the videos randomly freeze, too [09:29] rumpel2: thanks indeed! [09:29] Along with the torrents clients [09:29] can anyone help me solve my prob? [09:29] cedega [09:29] So yeah... I guess it does, Se [09:29] i cant boot my ubuntu :( [09:29] verian [09:30] Cernex, If you are lucky, you could try reseating your memory dimms. That does fix it sometimes. But it may need hardware replacement. [09:30] ok severian done [09:30] ... [09:30] How about just reinstalling Hardy? lol [09:30] total 8 drwx------ 17 dimitris dimitris 4096 2009-05-06 11:25 87mfcy9p.default -rw-r--r-- 1 dimitris dimitris 94 2008-11-03 15:45 profiles.ini severian [09:30] ubuntistas, What do you see? That was part of what I asked. [09:30] scizo: just ask it :) [09:30] in need of help with this http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=7223626#post7223626 [09:30] alert dev/disk/by-uuid im having this problem [09:30] Severian: I mean, Windows (dual-booting) runs just fine [09:30] And I actually have the Hardy CD here with me [09:30] ... [09:30] been working with it for some days now [09:31] On my CD tray, literally [09:31] alert dev/disk/by-uuid doesn't exist [09:31] dont know what else there is to do [09:31] ok, I've just had a succesful './configure' with glabels, what must I do following that? [09:31] Cernex, It probably won't stay that way. Don't ignore those memory errors. [09:31] haris, make [09:31] :nods: [09:31] Well, like I said, I CAN re-install the whole thing aain [09:31] my addons aren't shown on my right of the browser at all but i have enablesd them [09:31] I can do that [09:32] However, I want to know if there's a way to FIX the thing first [09:32] severian do u foolow? [09:32] I just tried that : make: *** No targets specified and no makefile found. Stop. [09:32] Since running a backup would be quite difficult for me at the moment [09:32] ubuntistas, Quit firefox and run the following command mv 87mfcy9p.default 87mfcy9p.default.save [09:32] okkkkkk [09:32] hi [09:32] ubuntistas, Then restart firefox and tell me what happens. [09:32] yawn [09:33] haris, sure it was successful? [09:33] does anyone know how to start synfig studio in ubuntu jaunty ? [09:33] ubuntistas, that command I gave you should have all been on one line. IRC may have broken it up. [09:33] he's gone u know [09:33] I installed synfig studio latest from repositories but is only seems to start [09:34] but after 10 seconds it closes :( [09:34] nooo my game froze up on me again upon startup [09:34] rumpel2, you're right :S there are still some dependencies that need sorting [09:34] wine isnt working so well for me? [09:34] ? [09:34] scizo, oops, he was doing his chat inside firefox. I hope he gets back. [09:34] Severian: Also, somebody called "goose" told me to run a debug mode or something [09:34] synfig studio anyone knows how to make it start ?????? :( [09:34] Think it ould help? [09:34] once they are sorted is it a simple case of ./configure, make, make install ? [09:34] ubuntistas: your right it your coolirus fails to install on my old firefox2 also [09:34] what game RichiV1 [09:35] haris: you should never blindly do that [09:35] Guild Wars [09:35] Severian can u help me out? [09:35] i synfigstudio in ubuntu jaunty repositories doesn't seem to work [09:35] hi [09:35] scizo, I can try. === johnson is now known as Guest76810 [09:35] it only stars and after 10 seconds it closes ... :( [09:35] ikoniam I'm afraid I'm still new to Ubuntu/Linux, I'm inevitable having to do things blindly :) [09:36] Severian: Heh. Guess it wouldn't [09:36] haris: what is it you want to achieve [09:36] when i start up ubuntu jaunty i get alert dev/disk/by-uuid doesn't exist [09:36] Hi Ubunteros! [09:36] Are you saying that I can install malicious stuff i I'm not careful? [09:36] so whaddya think scizo [09:36] hi guys [09:36] any better emulators that can run my game flawlessly? [09:36] I'm trying to install the atest glabels [09:36] its a windows only game [09:36] no mac realease [09:36] haris: I'm saying you can break your whole system [09:36] cedega? [09:37] ahh [09:37] i can run wc3 flawlessly [09:37] Cernex, I don't find the message about debug mode, so I don't know what he meant. If you run memtest from the boot mmenu and it reports lots of errors, there is something wrong. It may be in a part of memory Windows is not getting to. But there is a problem. [09:37] but then again thats older [09:37] does anyone know how to make synfig studio to work (the one from the jaunty repos) ??? [09:37] yeah I'm aware of th problems it can cause [09:37] synfig studio only starts for 10 seconds and then closes :( [09:37] haris: so you shouldn't be doing it blindly [09:37] sigh i cant even run ubuntu thats worse [09:38] scizo, have you swapped disk drives at any time recently? [09:38] Severian: clean the memory conectors with an eraser [09:38] Severian: Any software I can use to fix the things? Like a scan disk for Linux? [09:38] That's why I prioritised, Synaptic, .Deb file but unfortunately I can't find the latest release by those means so I've had to resort to the tar.gz [09:38] cholisterix :what is synfig studio? [09:38] i upgraded to jaunty [09:38] happened since then [09:38] Or maybe if I erased the vuze files? Were everything started? [09:38] Almtesh, : it is a program that makes vector animations [09:38] I can tell you what to path, but you'll need to be able to mount the drives in some way. An Ubuntu CD might do the trick. [09:38] haris: why do you want the latest release ? [09:38] haris: what's in the latest releae that you want ? [09:38] bug fix [09:38] Thank cholisterix [09:38] (Or at least the first thing to ever give me issues), Siverian [09:38] Almtesh, : it was closed source but since 2004 it is opensource [09:38] ok this is frustrating [09:38] haris: what bug / [09:39] i got ubuntu cd but the problem is [09:39] i cant mount anything cause i installed ubuntu from within windows [09:39] i insert a dvd to play it and the hole system locks up [09:39] Almtesh, it is very powerful almost like flash [09:39] from the official glabels website: [09:39] Packagers: please update to this version as soon as possible. This release fixes a set of problems that made glabels unusable on the latest distributions which use Gnome 2.26/Gtk 2.16. [09:39] Cernex, didn't you say this was from memtest on the boot menu that you saw the errors. If so, that is not a software problem. [09:39] wubi crap... [09:39] Drikan: do you have intel chipset based card? [09:39] I'm experiencing those problems and unfortunately the package repositories haven't been updated yet [09:39] haris: ubuntu may have back ports in it - is there s specific bug you want to fix [09:40] severian i run the command but firefox doesn't open now? [09:40] haris: then I suggest you log a bug on launchpad.net to get the package updated [09:40] so anybody have their synfig studio working from the repos of jaunty ? [09:40] *i mean graphics card [09:40] Severian: WHAT? [09:40] karda: you meen chipset [09:40] yea, the GPU :D [09:40] You mean the memory problems ARE hardware-based? [09:40] karda: no nvidia [09:40] they claim it works but after i open synfig studio it closes in 10 seconds :( [09:40] Cernex it means u need new ram [09:40] helooooooooooooo :( [09:40] my old glabels files are displaying with text all over the place and the label design dissapears if you click on it [09:41] severian i run the command but firefox doesn't open now? [09:41] synfigstudio working anyone :(:( :(:( :(:( :(:( :(:( [09:41] Drikan: do you have visual effects disabled? [09:41] Cernex. The answer to your question depends on what reported the errors. Was it the memtest from the boot menu? [09:41] I'm guessing it's the gtk problem mention on the glabels website [09:41] haris: ok - so log a bug to get it updated for everyone rather than potentially damage your system [09:41] Oh, you GOT to be kidding me, scizo! [09:41] cholisterix: just ask a question clearly and wait for a response [09:41] karda: no [09:41] Severian: Yes. From GRUB [09:41] read what Severian said [09:41] severian u there? [09:41] It's logged and fix, that's why I want 2.2.5 [09:41] ikonia ::( [09:41] ubuntistas1, Yes, I'm here. [09:41] It was about the 5th pass or so [09:41] Cernex: ya sounded like hardware but mostly conectors cause problems clean them first [09:41] try to disable desktop effects, it might help [09:41] can someone help me get my Guild Wars to work? I'm using wine, and the game freezes the computer! my GFX is ATi MobRadeaon X600 [09:41] the package repositories are serving 2.2.3 [09:41] haris: yes, you've said that - log a bug to get it updated [09:42] In other words, sacarlson, scizo and Severian [09:42] ... [09:42] tell me it doesn't open severian [09:42] where do I do that? [09:42] My RAM is freezing my PC [09:42] !bug > haris [09:42] haris, please see my private message [09:42] karda: you talking like wably windows and Cube workspaces? [09:42] try to clean ur ram [09:42] haris: as I've said, launchpad.net [09:42] Cernex, then it is a hardware problem and not software. Software won't fix it. I hedge a little, because there might be a way to mask it with software, but that is probably too complicated for here. [09:42] Cernex: how do you know it's your ram ?

[09:58] oh nvm [09:58] its already booted XD [09:59] darcknight, You can put a bunch of package names there. Dependancies will be added. The max command line lenght is 1023 characters, I believe. [09:59] like i did read some whrer about copying the packages to /var/cache/apt/archive and doing a sudo dpkg -i *.deb or something of that sort [10:00] severian doesn't work either [10:00] ?

[10:07] linduxed, Ubuntu server does not have that package. It would take you back to a command line system, I expect. [10:07] linduxed: it shouldn't have any, it's a metapackage [10:07] is there any option severian to upload my old addons and bookmarks?

[10:33] crankiz: Ok, well i was just checking, because a problem I've seen is that video codecs got new package names in jaunty, but they couldn't install if the old packages were still around. [10:33] remoteCTRL1: also, that disk isn't mounted is it?.. thats another reason you wouldn't be able to resize it. [10:33] rumpel2- can use that to access the index.html from my pc, but not another one [10:33] crankiz: But if you're sure you've got no un-upgraded packages hanging around, that's not it.

[11:39] Paddy_EIRE: yeah - another problem is that mplayer will allow me to slow down the vid to the right pace - but there's no way I can save it at that pace [11:39] Tyrath: that is most likely the video file itself [11:39] doleyb: not out of sync - the video is fast [11:40] Tyrath: try a different video [11:40] default shortcut for Graphical Force Quit anyone?

[11:46] doleyb: like I want to save the new speed to the video [11:46] Le-Chuck_ITA: yes it would especially if it has something bugging it [11:47] doleyb: unless you know an effective way of converting an m2st file to a smaller file type [11:47] Tyrath: well you can run it through mencoder if you really want to save it, instead of just watching it once [11:47] Tyrath: sounds to me you should redo that file conversion and put the audio back in properly :) [11:47] Paddy_EIRE: but it's 55°; it's surely going to die soon.

Could somebody tell me the repository for kernel updates? I wan't to upgrade to 2.6.29 (I'm on kubuntu 9.04) [13:01] hmm... esc for menu during boot? [13:01] I only relised the issue because I am trying to print lables in writer from a list in calc, and all the directions say I have to use base [13:01] well, New > Database is not an option [13:01] I have no history anymore on the bash, can someone tell me how to activate that again? [13:02] smileybri: If the command is not found for base, maybe it isn't installed, isn't installed correctly? [13:02] is there a known issue with black being rendered to parts of my screen occasionally? (9.04) [13:03] Maybe, but it is in Synaptic as installed. I even asked Synaptic to reinstall which it did. And it still does not work. [13:03] asf: did you find a solution? [13:03] vegombrei: no I didn't(( [13:03] I have a problem installing Ubuntu 9.04 on a system with Windows on it ....can someone tell if i have a drive with C/D/E partitions how should I set-up ubuntu let's say ..on the second partiton (D) when this partition is already NTFS ?? [13:04] ok I had a issue with gadmin-proftpd on 8.10 and tried on 8.04 and its works fine there [13:05] hi all [13:05] parapanghelescud, Are you prepared to delete the D: drive completely? [13:05] asf: why dont you edit grub? [13:06] ActionParsnip: cheers... can't believe I didn't spot that... slim removed just need to get it to go straight into X with out login manager [13:06] ActionParsnip, Now I am trying to remember the drive option to make it rewritable. :P [13:06] readwritable rather. [13:06] alexandernst: There is no official repository for kernel updates. We rarely (never) release updates that will upgrade ones kernel to a new version. [13:06] !latest > alexandernst [13:06] alexandernst, please see my private message [13:06] * Emry goes to read man mount [13:06] Severian > could I speak with you in private conv ?? [13:06] JohnN: nice [13:06] parapanghelescud, sure [13:06] cool [13:07] LOL [13:07] can get it into X just loads of stuff doesn't work because of permissions [13:07] Pici: Thanks, but what if I want to upgrade to 2.6.29? How can I do that? [13:08] alexandernst: You may be able to find a PPA with that available, or you'd have to compile it yourself. [13:08] carefully? ^^ [13:08] my [13:08] alexandernst: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/ *Might break things. [13:08] Pici: Ok, I'll try to find a ppa. Thanks [13:08] j #ubuntu-my [13:08] khensthoth: "Might break things" ? :S [13:09] alexandernst, i believe howtoforge has a howto for compilng a kernel in ubuntu [13:09] please : how to make LP automatically identify me when i commit a change from bzr? [13:09] besides games what can ubuntu do that windows can? [13:09] alexandernst: Well, just a warning, just in case. I installed the latest kernel yesterday without any problem. =) [13:10] Hi all; I think my laptop is blocking frequently due to extremely high temperature. It's a toshiba satellite m50 laptop and I *never* hear the fan. It's off. I recall there are modules to set-up for toshiba satellite laptops [13:10] robert__, it can just about everything windows can and more ...you have much greater control over your system with linux [13:10] how can I disable the keyring prompt when I start up Evolution? [13:10] robert__: linux can game awesomely [13:10] tell me more [13:10] robert__: penumbra, urban terror, frets on fire, doom3 [13:11] acantha, enemy territory: quake wars [13:11] defrysk: Yeah, I bet they have some how-to, but I prefer .deb ;) [13:11] I'll try them [13:11] quak! [13:11] khensthoth: Ah, ok ^^ Thanks! [13:11] quake, even! [13:11] robert__, well I cant take up channel time with a monologue about linux/ubuntu ...essentially ..as you get familiar with linux...you will find that you can do just about everything you wished windows could :) [13:11] * gordonjcp is playing his way through original Quake using the darkplaces engine ;-) [13:11] khensthoth: So, how can I add the repo? deb http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/ ? === RoozbehOnline is now known as ROSHA [13:12] alexandernst: Not sure. You can just download the .deb from there. [13:12] thank you [13:12] robert__: all the installed packages are managed trough a centralised system that works extremely well. The default desktop contains a chat program that chats more or less with every existing protocol, an office suite and a bittorrent client. You can set-up an ssh server in a couple of clicks and emulating windows from linux in virtualbox works much better than the opposite ;) [13:12] khensthoth: Ah, ok. Thanks [13:12] robert__, it is more than worth the learning curve you will become quite attached to linux's capabilities [13:13] robert__, on top of all all of you applications are free :) [13:13] I'm liking it already [13:13] alexandernst: You will need the header-generic for your system, header-all, and image-generic for your system for each kernel you want === nick-rivers is now known as nrivers [13:14] Is there an easy way to reset the whole GUI to default? [13:14] alexandernst: Install the 3 together, and you will have a grub entry for that. When you boot, you will probably be booted to the new kernel. [13:14] (GNOME) [13:14] khensthoth: Ok, I'll have a look at it ;) [13:14] going to test out ubuntu ,bye [13:14] So just the GUI, I don't want to completely re-install [13:14] Glowball: Delete everything in your /home/yourname. [13:14] robert__, the fact that software is free is definitly more attractive than windows ... there are a few things that both mac and windows still excell over linux with and ..in my opinion.. those would be mainly music composition [13:14] khensthoth: Glowball: delete everything that starts with a "." and is not ".." or just ".", in your home, these are hidden files [13:15] coz_: I use Linux for music composition [13:15] Glowball: Le-Chuck_ITA is right. [13:15] coz_: graphics and music, that is, the place where users almost never are developers :) [13:15] And things I know that have nothing to do with it, like .amsn I guess? [13:15] can i see a website trought proxy in ubuntu? [13:15] coz_: I haven't found any software on the Mac that I actually can use [13:16] coz_: gordonjcp: what do you use for music composition? Once upon a time I just used soundtracker as a mixer. Ardour looks pretty [13:16] ActionParsnip, :P I obviously put the fstab line in wrong, it now says that I am not privileged to mount the drive. [13:16] Glowball: Just in case, backup first, and create a new user so you can login to the new user and fix things. [13:16] gordonjcp, on mac probably not but on windows i have several I cannot run on linux one is Corel Painter [13:16] Le-Chuck_ITA: ardour [13:16] coz_: I haven't tried Windows [13:16] gordonjcp: and for synthesis (e.g. drums, keyboards) [13:16] what is windows? [13:16] Emry: try a reboot [13:16] gordonjcp, well painter is the ONLY application on all platforms that recreates natural media although mypaint on linux is darn close [13:16] Le-Chuck_ITA: mostly hardware [13:17] someone help me? [13:17] Le-Chuck_ITA: I don't like softsynths, even though I've written a couple ;-) [13:17] And now.. reboot? [13:17] i want to see something on a site trought proxy [13:17] Glowball: clearly you can delete only the .gconf* and .gnome* files [13:17] how i put a proxy on ubuntu? [13:17] Glowball: logout [13:17] login [13:17] Error: Your hostmask doesn't match or your password is wrong. [13:17] !proxy [13:17] 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. [13:17] Glowball: wait a sec [13:17] it is beter [13:17] Glowball: Yup. [13:17] bah, not so helpful [13:17] ActionParsnip, Will in just a moment, does this look right? UUID=07d78419-7db5-44f2-a5b0-3cbd35336eec /media/usb ext3 defaults,user,rw 0 0 [13:18] Glowball: gconfd is still running; it will save your settings again when it dies. [13:18] soneone?

I suppose it is a bug? [13:19] tavi: Add it through Firefox or System > Preferences > Network Proxy [13:19] tavi: just out of curiosity: did you try to find it by yourself? [13:19] Le-Chuck_ITA: So I have to kill it first? [13:19] Glowball: yes but [13:19] if you kill it [13:19] Le-Chuck_ITA, of course not [13:19] I bet it respawns [13:19] well i do not handle linux well [13:20] Hello people! i'm using a guide written for hardy, and on a passage it asks me to go into "System -> Administration .

[13:20] i do not need a web[roxy [13:20] c Hello people! i'm using a guide written for hardy, and on a passage it asks me to go into "System -> Administration -> network" but into 9.04 i'havent that choice!

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 [13:20] antonio_, what is the gude for and do you have a link?

[13:21] http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu_Hardy_it#Internet_e_lo_sviluppo_Web [13:21] nobody knows about toshiba, fan and modules? [13:21] Glowball: did you kill it? Did you check if it respawned? [13:21] if I want to share a usb drive to my windows machines, whats the best filesystem to format it in? [13:21] 500gb drive [13:21] what did you understand darthanubis [13:21] ? [13:22] coz_, i'm into the part "Aggiungete un host virtuale al vostro server LAMP " (try to find it) === christian is now known as Guest76060 [13:22] No respawn apparently.. [13:22] tavi, sorry, I don't speak your language [13:22] Relogging :) [13:22] Glowball: my best advice would be in any case to log out, go to console, kill all your processes and then delete the files from there; however if it's not respawning, try to remove any remaining file and relog [13:22] Glowball: first check that .gconfd does not exist [13:22] antonio_, ok it says to go to system/administration/Network [13:23] antonio_, let me see here [13:23] kostodo: FAT32 or NTFS. FAT32 cannot store files larger than 4GB though. [13:23] brb [13:23] Ah, grap [13:23] yeah i know :D but i have not that choice into system/administrarion [13:23] .gconfd is back.. [13:23] Le-Chuck_ITA: as to softsynths, I use specimen for samples, fluidsynth for soundfonts, and whysynth, Xsynth-DSSI, the Calf plugins, nekobee and nekostring (which I wrote) and some experimental plugins I haven't released yet [13:23] khensthoth, NTFS gave me problems when mounting though [13:23] Just as the process [13:23] Glowball: because when you killed it, gconfd wrote its config back [13:23] I probably forgot to renew the list [13:23] Glowball: delete it again [13:23] The process is back. [13:24] kostodo: What problem? [13:24] gordonjcp: I said synthesis, I actually meant something like "composition using notes and synthesised or sampled instruments" :) Like midi or tracker [13:24] khensthoth, let me get it for you [13:24] screw it re-install time [13:25] Glowball: I told you :) Reboot, so everything is killed. Then do not log in in gnome, but in console, and delete your files from there. There is no good procedure to do this from the GUI right now. [13:25] Le-Chuck_ITA: oh, I use seq24 for that [13:25] Le-Chuck_ITA: but I hate sequencing on computers, anyway [13:25] Then could you give me the command? :$ [13:25] I'm a GUI noob :x [13:25] antonio_, I see what you mean hold on let me search vedo..permettetemi di ricerca [13:26] (Quite new to Linux, yes) [13:26] Le-Chuck_ITA: mostly for sequencing I use my Alesis MMT-8 or the sequencer in my EPS [13:26] Le-Chuck_ITA: but this is shading to -ot [13:26] thanks a lot coz_ :) [13:26] Glowball: first you do ctrl+alt+f1, then you insert username and password, then you use "rm .gnome* .gconf* -rf" [13:26] !audio [13:26] 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 [13:26] Ty [13:27] gordonjcp: ok just a last one :) When you use seq24 do you then export files to wav and import them in audacity? Then what about synchronisation? I can do that by hand but it's not so easy [13:29] khensthoth, okay no mount error now (after formatting again), but i cant get write permissions [13:29] anyone recommend a good guide to slimming down xubuntu (9.04) [13:29] How slim are we talking? :P It is supposed to be the slim distro. ^^; [13:29] antonio_, non riesco bene "Network"...vorrei chiedere nel here ... let me ask here [13:29] guys I think I am in serious trouble: my fan is NOT turning on on my laptop in jaunty. [13:30] P3 600, 128MB [13:30] khensthoth, write permissions to the share i mean, i can write just fine to it direct through ubuntu === solid_li` is now known as solid_liq [13:30] ok coz :D however you can speak english, i'll understeand :) you dont need to translate :) [13:30] hey guys underl this tutorial...http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu_Hardy_it#Internet_e_lo_sviluppo_Web...it is suggesting to go to system/preference/network however in 9.04 that doesnt exist anylonger ...what is the replacement location? [13:30] <_Krishna_> Hi [13:31] kostodo: That I am not too sure. Sorry about that. [13:31] <_Krishna_> Orkut opens and works well in epiphany.... but not in firefox.... i refreshed many times... cleared my cache ..... but still, orkut wont load ... why ? [13:32] Anyone know why I wouldnt have write permissions to a NTFS share (external usb drive) ? === ROSHA is now known as Roozbeh|Away [13:32] cause no root? [13:32] or u closed it wrong [13:32] coz_, i'll solve the problem if you know any apache beginner guide... cause everything is happening because i'm trying to use apache :) [13:33] hey, is there a way to make an xterm window go full-screen? [13:33] kostodo: you mounted it as root probably [13:33] ctrl alt F2? [13:33] Emry: xubuntu is quick enuff once I get rid of gdm service and a few others, but I'm giving the machine to a 'normal' person so a text login and then typing startx mighht be beyond them [13:33] scizo: lol [13:33] what? [13:33] JohnN: crunchbang ? [13:33] ? [13:34] another terminal is no good :( I need to make a windowed xterm in gnome go full-screen.... impossible? :( [13:34] I don't think ctrl+alt+f2 is what he was looking for .for fullscreen [13:34] why u want it fullscreen [13:34] antonio_, I understand but I am not skilled with apache things .. I can understand the italian but cannot fine "network" under administration [13:34] mrpinky: iirc there is a gnome-terminal menu option for going fullscreen. [13:34] hi [13:34] how can i change time zone in console without interactive mode? (i tried dpkg-reconfigure tzdata -f noninteractive but it just displays current timezone?) [13:34] JohnN: have you looked at the crunchbang linux distribution ? it is based on ubuntu but uses openbox .. it should be much faster [13:35] JohnN, I see. ^^ [13:35] szonek: man date [13:35] coz_, right click on nm-applet [13:35] Are there any display managers that are very light weight? [13:35] Emry: fluxbox [13:35] i can never get Ubuntu going [13:35] coz_, it's ok :) thakns a lot for your time! [13:35] duryodhan how do i get compiz on windows? [13:35] JohnN: look at fluxbuntu too [13:35] antonio_, try here http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Jaunty#LAMP_server_installation [13:35] antonio_, it is in enlgish and for ubuntu jaunty [13:35] scizo: no idea [13:35] aw [13:35] duryodhan: any light distro I've tried seems to hide the picking of wireless access points for some reason [13:36] Damn, apparently that wasn't the solution... [13:36] i thought i could tease u XD [13:36] uuu good :D thanks! [13:36] Well, the problem is that my appearance manager isn't recognizing my themes anymore [13:36] Pici, there is --full-screen, thanks! [13:36] duryodhan: i would like to change *time zone*, not time [13:36] I have 50/50 Vista/Ubuntu. I have wireless going on Windows. But I can't get cable to work so I can get internet with Ubuntu which I need to install wireless for Ubuntu. Isn't wireless to cable just switching to it? I need to reconfigure stuff? [13:36] antonio_, buona foruna :) [13:36] suppose if I could persude networkmanager and it's applet onto them.... [13:36] JohnN: no reason why it should .. and anyways .. try wicd , it is lightweight app to enable picking of wireless distro ... [13:36] antonio_, buona fortuna [13:36] thanks coz_ [13:36] JohnN: I have never used fluxbuntu, crunchbang linux etc... ask in #fluxbuntu and #crunchbang [13:37] antonio_, no problem [13:37] I can't get better resolution than 800*600,why not? [13:37] fluxbuntu still on 7.04? [13:37] JohnN: err ..not wireless distro .. wireless network [13:37] sorry [13:38] JohnN: I don't think its appropriate to discuss fluxbuntu etc. on this channel please use the respective channels [13:38] heltav: what network card? what video card? [13:39] Glowball: did it reset your settings? [13:39] So how to I make sure my USB drive is not being mounted as ROOT? [13:39] hi all i have problem with my realtek sound card in ubuntu [13:39] Yes, it did [13:39] But it didn't fix my problem [13:39] Glowball> Well, the problem is that my appearance manager isn't recognizing my themes anymore [13:39] JohnN, you could have found out faster with a google search [13:39] Glowball: did you install custom themes? Not that I know anything about ti [13:39] why do people hate google? [13:39] JohnN: fluxbox is in the repos for 9.04 [13:39] darthanubis: the answer is obvious [13:39] It started when I (manually) updated GTK+ [13:40] people are lazy [13:40] !ot | darthanubis [13:40] darthanubis: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions.

[13:40] Pici, nothing was "random" about it [13:41] how can i change time zone in console without interactive mode?

[13:41] how does one go about creating a .dev package? [13:41] .deb i mean [13:41] Hi! ubuntu uses splashy or usplash ? [13:41] darthanubis: been all over google, tried 10-15 light distros just nothing as friendly a ubuntu... [13:41] S_A: usplash [13:41] S_A: usplash [13:41] szonek: if you knew the right timezone you could just alter /etc/timezone [13:41] anyways over to flux [13:41] <_ruben> vluser: the Debian New Maintainer's Guide would be a decent start [13:41] Le-Chuck_ITA: Realtek [13:42] JohnN, I meant to find out what version they are at [13:42] !newpackage > vluser [13:42] vluser, please see my private message [13:42] vidoe card i dont know [13:42] Le-Chuck_ITA: My GUI is ugly, since I (manually) updated GTK+ [13:42] heltav: it's an ethernet not a wifi then I guess? [13:42] JohnN, last time I joined their channel it said 8.10 [13:42] !es | ElPana [13:42] ElPana: En la mayoría de canales Ubuntu se comunica en inglés. Para ayuda en Español, por favor entre en los canales #ubuntu-es o #kubuntu-es. [13:42] Glowball: ah... I know what you mean but from where did you take gtk+? [13:42] JohnN, If you want small ubuntu-like OS try anti-x [13:43] oh [13:43] Hi [13:43] heltav: lspci in console and find your video card [13:43] http://www.gtk.org/download-linux.html [13:43] hello, does someone know if there is any progress with the intel graphics driver on ubuntu? [13:43] Dr_Willis: yeah but i think it needs something more to notice the change [13:43] Glowball: then maybe the protocol to acquire system settings changed (I mean the gconf protocol). Better ask on their irc servers (irc.gnome.org but don't know which channel) [13:43] szonek: proberly some service resart. but im not sure what one. [13:43] Glowball: but why on earth did you update gtk+ [13:44] Test [13:44] I don't remember :P [13:44] Test [13:44] duryodhan, Does fluxbox have a login manager though? :P [13:44] FrankQC: we see you [13:44] =) [13:44] Which should I use [13:44] xchat or konversation [13:44] Glowball: then my advice is to return to ubuntu's gtk and have the problem fixed :) [13:44] FrankQC, use what you like [13:45] Le-Chuck_ITA: Obviously. Do you know by hard what version it was? [13:45] Glowball: packages.ubuntu.com knows better than me :) But just uninstall your custom one and do apt-get install --reinstall gtk or whatever the package is called [13:45] or do that from synaptic. [13:46] Glowball: maybe you were missing dependencies when you compiled it? [13:46] but how can I get better resolution? [13:46] 800*600 is yuck [13:46] does anybody know how to pause gnome-terminal so I can access the context menu? (context menu disapppears when terminal is updated, and terminal is constantly updated) [13:46] odisbane: After a check, I was indeed missing dependencies, but now I've installed them all, recompiled and re-installed, without any result [13:46] heltav you can try xrandr and it will show you the available display modes. [13:46] heltav: I think that the system may be using some "vesa" driver instead of the one for your video card. That may be by mistake (that is, a bug) or because your video card is unsupported [13:47] Glowball: did you include all of the header files for the deps. as in the -dev ? [13:47] Glowball: there are funnier things in life than changing the very heart of your distribution and then trying to get it fixed :) [13:47] Le-Chuck_ITA: So I might better re-install? [13:48] mrpinky, Ctrl+S maybe [13:48] reinstall ubuntu packages after uninstalling yours I mean. Unless you have a good reason to have the latest. [13:48] ranf, win, thanks :D [13:49] I am thinking of a re-install tbh. This is giving me a headache [13:50] Glowball: reinstalling the whole ubuntu, if you keep the home dir, is a one-hour job [13:50] I am in ubuntu 9.04 when i turn off my computer there is a beep something wrong? [13:50] Less, tbh :P === Miesco__ is now known as Miesco [13:50] Glowball: copy /etc/apt, and have synaptic save your full package selections === elad is now known as elad` [13:50] odinsbane: int he shell i just do : xrandr? [13:50] Le-Chuck_ITA: Back-up it in my home dir? [13:50] can i easily make my installed ubuntu 9.04 into the netbook release as an ungrade? [13:50] whats the font dir of a user in eeebuntu 8.10 (aka netbook remix)? locate fonts | grep /home just findes /home/mario/.gnome2/share/fonts (and some dirs in the near of this dir), is THAT the font dir? [13:51] Glowball: after reinstall, copy back /etc/apt, update and reload the list of packages. Glowball yes, but, ehm, is your home partition separate from /? If not you'll loose both on re-format [13:51] Yes, it's separate ;) [13:52] Glowball: then following the procedure above you'll recover everything you installed using apt. BTW the information on manually installed and automatically installed packages would be lost; you can save it because it's in the file /var/lib/apt/extended_states === sleepy_cat is now known as c_nick === YUKI is now known as wet-chan [13:52] !fonts | KEBA1 [13:52] KEBA1: Font installation basics here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FontInstallHowto - No fonts in Flash?

I repeat: save the list with synaptics and don't forget to check the checkbox saying to save the complete system state [13:52] i installed newer versions of packages from a PPA, how do i revert to the official versions? [13:53] hey, how can i pipe continuously updating text to a terminal window? i tried "cat 'blah' | gnome-terminal", but it didn't work [13:53] mrpinky: tail [13:53] erUSUL: k, thx [13:53] can i easily make my installed ubuntu 9.04 into the netbook release as an ungrade? OR would I have to reinstall? [13:53] linduxed: Is there any entry in Synaptic? [13:53] Glowball: if you really have nothing better to do why not writing a simple python app automatising that! :) [13:54] Because I don't know Python? :P [13:54] khensthoth: what do you mean by entry? i can see the installed packages? [13:54] linduxed: Yup [13:54] khensthoth: *no ? on the end [13:55] heltav: typing xrandr will show your display modes [13:55] Glowball: then be doomed with your gtk+ upgrades :) :) [13:56] khensthoth: i dont understand [13:56] Damn [13:56] Gtk-Message: Failed to load module "canberra-gtk-module": libcanberra-gtk-module.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory [13:56] I can't even gksudo nautilus..

[13:57] er gtk? [13:57] Yes.. [13:57] :/ It mounts the drive, but it mounts it read only.... GAH! ^^;; [13:58] emry does the hardrive have a switch on it? [13:58] just wondering , is there a laptop specific live cd for 9.04? [13:58] ubuntu rocks [13:58] recon691: Nope [13:59] Anybody here use atheros wifi chipset? [13:59] O.o The hard drive is just a normal drive. [13:59] odisbane: Any idea that is easier? Otherwise I'm going to re-install now... [13:59] Emry: are you using mount. [14:00] * Emry goes to test something that might make him feel real dumb.... [14:00] Glowball: I would re-install [14:00] Ok, then I'm going to do it too ;) [14:00] Cya, guys [14:00] Probably in about an hour [14:00] hello im new [14:00] Does anyone know of a good proxy from Canada?

[14:02] *should* [14:02] Wow ever since 9.04 came out people have been complaining of problems [14:02] have you installed the restricted drivers for the wireless card [14:02] Maybe I did a good thing by staying with 8.04lts [14:02] odinsbane: Network Manager shows wlan0 as not updated yet but enabled. [14:02] JuJuBee: try lshw and see what driver your card is using, it should be Ath9K [14:03] can i easily make my installed ubuntu 9.04 into the netbook release as an ungrade?

[14:03] does anyone know how to get cube Atlantis working in jaunty [14:04] frankqc: no I have 9.04, just thgink a customised instal for the hardware in question might be less trobklesome [14:04] what channel is more appropriate to ask about ext3 issues in Jaunty? [14:04] odinsbane: yes on laptop using ath9k. [14:04] rumpel2: how do i do that? [14:04] odinsbane, I figured out the problem... It was an ID0T error. [14:04] JuJuBee: is it on, as in does the wireless light come on?

[14:05] JuJuBee: My assu has a setup and I couldn't turn the wireless card on with the button. [14:05] odinsbane: yes it is on. [14:05] I leave it on [14:06] I have asus also [14:06] JuJuBee: so its working? [14:06] Hmm, seems to be, but network manager doesn't show it has IP address. [14:06] hey, i just took the blue pill - does anybody know a program that reads continuous streaming text from stdin and displays it in green, like the matrix? i tried piping the text gnome-terminal and roxterm, but neither of them seem to read/display from stdin. [14:06] JuJuBee: a good test is iwlist wlan0 scan [14:06] Ah, sees AP [14:07] i have a 40" lcd tv collegated to my laptop.....is possible to increase the output resolution??? i have an ati mobility radeon x600 [14:07] route -n shows a route to it also now [14:07] how do I specify an interface to use for ping?

[14:57] NeedHelpGuy: you can use tab key to autocomplete name so you dont have to type whole thing [14:58] Hymnosis: is this a commercial dvd? have you installed the dvd decoder library ? [14:59] Hi, I'd like some help with some sound problems. Basically, I am using a sound card with a C-Media chipset, and the module is loaded (snd-cmipci) and everything looks ok. Alsamixer recognises it fine and such. But when I go to play sound, nothing happens. I have adjusted the volume levels in Alsamixer, but still no sound :( [14:59] its an original dvd i guess i have installed the dvd decoder [15:00] is it the gstreamer or something [15:00] Anyone know how to forge SYN headers with Scapy?

I've been using 8.04 for a long time without problems. but since my upgrade to 9.04, my xorg has a memory leak. when I leave it running for several hours it consumes almost 5 gb of ram and it consumes a lot of CPU time, although I'm not at my PC. is this a known issue? any fixes? [15:07] pepperjack: Oh one other thing, to make the switch do I have to do a complete log out and re-log back in? [15:08] {g}: Not to be an ass but... exactly. [15:08] usr_masse: youll need to logoff yes that is about it. there should be a 'sessions' button at login screen that will have options for which you want to load [15:08] usr_masse: the new kde..takes some getting used to but you may like it [15:09] pepperjack: Sweet. Thanks for assistance, I'm still running gno [15:09] {g}: sourceforge is the hosting site for a lot of open source projects. It can be trusted. [15:09] {g}: Anything a user on #ubuntu links you to that is on sourceforce is clean. [15:09] anyone who can tell me where i can find the alt+tab setting? [15:10] pepperjack: Sweet. Thanks for assistance, I'm still running gnome 2.22 right and I was reading about some of the changes to KDE. Thought I give it a try and see what it was like. Haven't saw a reason to upgrade to Gnome 2.4 yet. And I'm still running Ubuntu 8.04 [15:10] shadeslayer: What do you mean by alt+tab setting? [15:10] usr_masse: In my opinion, KDE is too graphical. [15:10] rgarvelink: i mean my alt+tab is not working [15:11] neconide: Too much apple and windows gui attention for [15:11] usr_masse: kde4 gives you a hardware accelerated gui which is very cool but the default new look is almost like msoffice 2008 to my eyes :) [15:11] neconide: Too much apple and windows gui attention for your taste? [15:11] shadeslayer: System, Preferences, Keyboard Shortcuts. "Move between windows using a pop up window" - Set that one as Alt+Tab. See if that works [15:11] usr_masse: Well Macs essentially run on unix. They're just shiny and overpriced. So yes. [15:12] pepperjack: Yeah simplicity is better sometimes. That was the problem when I use to have Vista (thank God I got WoW running on linux, never have to go back to WIndows). Got damn OS was sucking up half my resources with their interfface [15:12] Is there a way to read the changelogs for updates from the command line? [15:12] Hymnosis: try this http://paste.ubuntu.com/165500/ [15:12] khensthoth: no such option [15:13] neconide: My wife has a macbook, I must say before I got my own laptop and load Ubuntu on it, I loved that little thing :-) It ran smooth for a fancy interface.

H [15:14] thanks i'l try that [15:14] usr_masse: Well yes, macs are lightweight on RAM. But they're horrible as far as compatability and software availability goes. [15:14] Have any of you made the upgrade to ver 9 yet? How do you like it above 8.04 [15:14] I keep hearing crackling noises all the time, is this normal? [15:14] usr_masse: It's easier on the RAM. [15:14] jtaji: That looks like what I need - thanks [15:14] neconide: This is true. I had to buy some additional hardware to make myself work a little more efficient. Such as a printer and digital camera for started [15:15] how can I plug an external projector on my ubuntu laptop without chaning xorg.conf and stuff? [15:15] pro of 9.04 faster boot, negative thinkfinger (fixed) and alsa is muted on startup [15:15] tonyyarusso: A few ways: aptitude changelog packagename. or for viewing when you download updates: install apt-listchanges (you may need to dpkg-reconfigure it to set your preferences for pager/etc) [15:15] @usr masse [15:15] khensthoth: I worked hard to get WoW up and running on this laptop, I don't want to upgrade and can't play, my world will start crashing [15:16] usr_masse: I just bought an alienware and installed slax. Good hardware and the casing is orgasmic. [15:16] terquilino: What is thinkfinger? [15:16] khensthoth: thanks [15:16] fingerscan for laptops like IBM or dell [15:17] usr_masse: What server do you play on [15:17] usr_masse: Well, 9.04 out of the box has some problem with some Intel sound card, some Intel graphic card [15:17] neconide: Too pricey for my taste. Not a hardcore gamer is all. I play on Medivh but I make random characters all the time [15:17] !ot [15:17] #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics. Thanks! [15:17] neconide: I started playing a year ago so not many characters made yet. [15:18] usr_masse: oh lol. I play on Arthis. [15:18] I just installed hardy on a box last night, and saw something odd. If I drag a window too far to the left or right, it plops on another adjacent desktop. I then tried it on my own xubuntu box, and the same thing happened. Here at work though, on a regular ubuntu box, it doesn't work. Where do I turn that feature on? [15:18] All boxes are running hardy [15:19] khensthoth: Really. Have they been addressed so far, or solutions found. I think when I was reading the forums I saw something similiar to that. [15:19] usr_masse: http://www.wowarmory.com/character-sheet.xml?r=Arthas&n=Abacabb [15:19] usr_mass: ^me [15:19] anyone know why i cant see anything on my desktop ... if i go into nautulis I can find it but not on the desktop ... using 9.04 netbook version [15:19] I'm trying to change my BASH prompt so that the "$" part of the prompt is on a new line. I did this with "\n\$" at the end of PS1. However, when I type out a command and then press home to go to the beginning of the line, it shows me in the first half of the line. any ideas? [15:19] usr_masse: There are workarounds, not real fixed though. [15:19] ok ontoppic: alsa is muted on startup. i use xfce, and a HDA intel soundchip [15:19] neconide: Checking it now [15:19] craigbass1976: You need compiz and Desktop Effects enabled. [15:19] craigbass1976: disable virtual desktops [15:20] khensthoth, I don't have them running on my xubuntu box, that's what I thought was weird. [15:20] khensthoth: compiz ftw [15:20] how to unmute it automatic on startup? [15:20] texlive version in 9.04? [15:20] Hi, I get a message on startup that $HOME/.dmrc is being ignored.

[15:22] yeah [15:23] JusticeZero: should. =) Because I can't see your system, can't say for sure that it will work. By saying should, it gives me some protection that you won't blame me if it doesn't work. =) [15:23] right.. [15:23] JusticeZero, though you may want to rename it instead first, in case you need it afterward [15:24] neconide: aaah your alliance. excellent. been wanting to made a horde toon to explore that side but i'm so lazy now a days, takes me forever to hit 80. Still don't have a 80 toon. Should just level one and stop with the laziness. [15:24] Travis-42: you just want to put the "$" in PS2 with no newline at the end of PS1 [15:24] where would I find it? [15:24] JusticeZero: Go to your home folder, press Ctrl + H [15:24] JusticeZero, /home/justice/.dmrc [15:24] how do you download apache ? [15:24] sudo apt-get install [15:25] AllStar: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP [15:25] jtaji: Changing PS2 doesn't do anything for the default prompt?

[15:25] \ [15:25] ok, lemme try that. [15:25] neconide: use to? [15:25] usr_masse: Trust me, it's horrible on the other side. [15:25] I eventually solved my sound problem. Luckily, padevchoose, decided to inform me that my sound was muted. I have no idea why Alsamixer didn't do this previously, though :P [15:26] should I use anti-virus in ubuntu? [15:26] usr_masse: deleted it so i could make a twink lol [15:26] Neconide, usr_masse: This is a support channel, can we keep the topic to Ubuntu support only. You can chat in #ubuntu-offtopic or in private. Thanks. [15:26] rob0917: Hmm.. Some people do, I hardly think it is worth it. I know there is ClamAV [15:26] !antivirus | rob0917 [15:26] rob0917: Antivirus is something you don't need on !Linux, except where files are then passed to windows computers (perhaps using samba), See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Antivirus [15:26] rob0917: I think there are some good rootkit detectors though, I tend to use them now and then.

I just figured out that the problem was related to not using a \[ and \] around a $(tput ...) command. thank you [15:30] ubuntu9.04 can be installed from hard disk? [15:30] Travis-42: ahh nice [15:30] i am on ubuntu 8.04 lts, how do i upgrade to 8.10, can haz answer fast please? [15:30] !upgrade | vatts [15:30] vatts: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes - see also http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/upgrading [15:31] Is there anyway to tell what parts of a jaunty upgrade may not be correct? Since the upgrade, which didn't seem to finish completely, my system is messed up in a couple of key ways, like printing. [15:31] Greets, everyone... [15:31] Hmm,anyone can help me out with this ? im totally newbie. [15:31] LinuxApe: how did it not finish correctly? [15:31] zy: hey, your answer was here, answered at #ubuntu-tw: http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?suite=jaunty&arch=i386&searchon=names&keywords=texlive [15:31] LinuxApe: run the upgrade again === Whitor| is now known as Whitor [15:32] i installed apache2 through terminal and tested it with localhost and It Works [15:32] what should i do next ? [15:32] thank nifx28 [15:32] AllStar: read the manual ? [15:32] danbhfive: Screen was nothing but closely spaced vertical lines. Had to reboot. Trying to rerun upgrade produces nothing new. [15:32] LinuxApe: than it finished fine [15:32] I'm getting this message when trying to remove a package (genpo): dpkg (subprocess): unable to execute post-removal script: Exec format error. apt-get install -f gives the same error. Any ideas? [15:33] contrast: gile a bug on that package [15:33] s/gile/file [15:33] contrast: kill genpo's postrm script [15:33] LinuxApe: sudo apt-get install -f ? [15:33] hey ubuntu [15:34] em jtaji , those are for newest only [15:34] i haz lts [15:34] apt-get autoremove && apt-get autoclean && deborphan | xargs apt-get -y remove --purge [15:34] gnomefreak: Can't print from my system anymore, get communication errors, insert LiveCD, I can print. Also, thunderbird (email client) was installed but didn't show up in package managers. Reinstall caused some problems with config. [15:34] So I've been experiencing a lot of regressions (from hardy to jaunty). My webcam doesn't work, my logitech usb headset no longer works, and there are issues w/ the new opensource ati driver [15:34] installed successfully, but still having the same problem with movie player, however i tried with vlc and i can hear the music menu but the video is all chopped [15:34] any1 installed mod_python on LAMP on Ubuntu!? I use mod_python.cgihandler but the server keeps returning the whole source code instead of the webpage [15:34] Didn't work, and now I have endless error popups saying that there was an error performing indexing, index corrupted. [15:34] I'm not sure if I should give jaunty some more time or just go back to hardy [15:34] thoughts? [15:34] danbhfive: How do I do that? [15:35] Gnimsh: I'd say go back to Hardy. [15:35] Hello there [15:35] LinuxApe: does sudo apt-get install -f? does sudo dpkg --configure -a help? [15:35] danbhfive: result is a couple of messages about some a few unneeded packages, but that's all. [15:35] vatts: nope, there's info in that first link (right in table of contents) about going from 8.04 to 8.10 [15:35] khensthoth, what's your reasoning for that? [15:35] LinuxApe: no, those packages are needed [15:35] Hymnosis: did you enable the restricted driver for you video card? [15:35] ya, just getting there :P [15:35] !bug 33141 [15:35] how do i configure apache ? [15:35] danbhfive: ? they are most likely its the autoremove pile [15:36] angry: did you get your ati card working? [15:36] Gnimsh: Well, because you experienced regression, and things don't work for you? =) And Hardy is LTS [15:36] my packet lists can not be resolved. although i am connected to the internet and can install new software. [15:36] what can i do [15:36] heh ok [15:36] I need some help with my OfficeJet 1150C (the scanner are not working on ubuntu 8.04) [15:36] contrast: does: locate genpo.postrm give you anything? [15:36] So if I understand the LTS model correctly, it lasts for 3 years, which means that a new version would come out every 3 years? [15:36] hello Im having a problem after upgrade to jaunty my video card driver is not working anymore [15:36] danbhfive: /var/lib/dpkg/info/genpo.postrm [15:37] Gnimsh: Let me ask the bot. [15:37] !LTS [15:37] LTS means Long Term Support. LTS versions of Ubuntu will be supported for 3 years on the desktop, and 5 years on the server. [15:37] Gnimsh: 3 years desktop, 5 years server.. so far they are coming every 2 years which would make sense [15:37] contrast: delete that, and then remove genpo [15:37] Gnimsh: a new LTS is releassed around the time one runs out [15:37] I -think- an LTS comes out every year and a half, and the past two versions are fully supported at once. [15:37] nop i havent, weird because im running compiz without any problems... === solid_li` is now known as solid_liq [15:37] JusticeZero1: every 4rth is LTS [15:37] JusticeZero1: no its around 2-3 years [15:37] danbhfive: apt-get install -f reports: The following packages were automatically installed and are no longer required: foomatic-db-gutenprint ijsgutenprint mozilla-thunderbird liblrdf0 [15:37] about 2 years each [15:37] :P [15:37] danbhfive: that got it, thanks a lot. :) [15:37] LinuxApe:they are not set up [15:38] LinuxApe: sudo dpkg --configure -a [15:38] it has yet to be determined if the next LTS will be 10.04 or 10.10 [15:38] or watching .avi or .mkv files with no problems [15:38] ok [15:38] interesting just the same [15:38] Hymnosis: well, the opensource drivers have come a long way. [15:38] LinuxApe: oh, can you install pastebinit? [15:38] calc: 10.04 should be [15:38] wait [15:38] any1 installed mod_python on LAMP on Ubuntu!? I use mod_python.cgihandler but the server keeps returning the whole source code instead of the webpage [15:38] ya [15:38] vatts: it should be it hasn't been officially decided yet. [15:38] 10.04 should be LTS! :( [15:39] calc: it should be :( [15:39] so what to do? [15:39] Hymnosis: but most video cards have special hardware to speed up dvd decryption, so the specific driver for you card will probably fix the jitters. what video card you got? [15:39] vatts: if too many upstreams decide to make major changes in 10.04 dev timeline (like potentially Gnome 3.0) then it might push the LTS back to 10.10 [15:39] ah [15:39] :P [15:40] OK, removing $HOME/.dmrc did not fix the error, but it broke Tracker. I still got the same error that it was being ignored. [15:40] vatts: gnome has been shooting for 2.30 being 3.0 if that happens it may cause Ubuntu to push the LTS back a cycle [15:40] danbhfive: installed pastebinit, what do I do with that? [15:40] one sec [15:41] acording to the lspci i have an ATI Technologies Inc RV570 [Radeon X1950 Pro] [15:41] JusticeZero1, i just had that issue, i had to follow this guide. http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=371052 === lewilew is now known as Hetii [15:41] LinuxApe: installing th elist of packages that is said to be not needed does that install them?

[15:42] you guys prefer windows or linux more ? [15:42] I looked through Tasques source code, and I didn't see anything to do with the color. [15:42] calc: i know you are [15:42] !ot | allstar [15:42] allstar: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics. Thanks! [15:43] gnomefreak: the 12 hour lead time is due to it needing to be built... which is why you don't see the packages yet [15:43] it is not listed in the hardware drivers [15:43] LinuxApe: try this: sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop^ | pastebinit [15:43] calc: ah i thought you said karmic was built already [15:43] gnomefreak: no i did not, i said it was uploaded to karmic [15:43] gnomefreak: scrollback and reread [15:43] calc: i just did my faukt i read it worng [15:44] gnomefreak: no problem :) [15:44] is there a way to setup my fstab s.t. a certain device is recognized ie sdb, sdc are assigned by order of pluggin them in. [15:44] test [15:44] odinsbane: why not use uuids? [15:44] danbhfive: I don't know about using uuids [15:44] odinsbane: not really, which is the reason for uuids [15:44] !uuid | odinsbane [15:44] odinsbane: To see a list of your devices/partitions and their corresponding UUID's, run this command in a !shell: « sudo blkid » (see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LibAtaForAtaDisks for the rationale behind the transition to UUID) [15:45] * gnomefreak wonders what ubuntu-desktop has to do with thunderbird [15:45] sim-valuead: test worked [15:45] hello [15:45] ma siete italiani [15:45] ESoft: /j 3ubuntu-it [15:45] !it | ESoft [15:45] ESoft: Vai su #ubuntu-it se vuoi parlare in italiano, in questo canale usiamo solo l'inglese. Grazie! (click col tasto destro sul nome del canale per entrare) [15:46] gnomefreak: it has nothing to do with thunderbird, but its ubuntus IMO suboptimal way of updating things [15:46] ESoft: /j #ubuntu-it [15:46] Trying to follow a tip in that guide and got an error.. [15:46] danbhfive: Actually, I'm a kubuntu user, with apt-get install kubuntu-desktop provide the same info? [15:46] justice@BTBS-laptop:~$ sudo chmod -R 700 /home/justice [15:46] chmod: cannot access `/home/justice/.gvfs': Permission denied [15:46] linduxed: i know it has nothing to do with it thats why i asked why ubuntu-desktop is going to help what has not be configed yet [15:47] ok grazie mille... Bye bye [15:47] Hymnosis : seems that support for those cards have been dropped :( , there are legacy drivers avaiable at http://support.amd.com/us/gpudownload/linux/legacy/Pages/radeon_linux.aspx?type=2.4.1&product=2.4.1.3.12&lang=English , but I use nvidia drivers so cant give you any better instructions other that to follow the instructions on the page [15:48] LinuxApe: o, yeah [15:48] linduxed: yes but try sudo apt-get install --reinstall the ones that say they are not needed [15:48] damn [15:48] LinuxApe: ^^^ for youy [15:48] Hymnosis : you should read this as well http://wiki.cchtml.com/index.php/Ubuntu_Jaunty_Installation_Guide [15:48] JusticeZero1: I think you can ignore that [15:49] Could use some help with a ssh tunnel to vnc problem. I have a server running ssh server on port 8000 and vnc on 6000. If have allowed 6000 through my firewall to test connecting and I can from the outside. But I want to be more secure so Im trying to setup ssh [15:49] LinuxApe: i need any and all info on the thunderbird part of this, the others are other peoples problems [15:49] Hymnosis: I actually make a point of getting nvidia cards because there support is better [15:50] I am using a windows system to connect with using putty and have configured a tunnel but I can only successully ssh [15:50] I cant vnc through the tunnel [15:50] danbhfive: http://pastebin.com/f19c65b79 [15:51] secureneo, you need to set putty to tunnel the port, search for that. I did it but i don't remember exactly [15:51] ahh ok any recommended nvidia card? [15:51] LinuxApe: and sudo apt-get -f install didnt help? [15:51] Hymnosis: well, you got a ati, and you can make it work. just keep it in mind next time you buy :) [15:51] !ATI [15:51] For Ati/NVidia/Matrox video cards, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto [15:51] Well Im connecting to my system from work and have setup my ssh tunnel in putty to the local internal IP of the server and the port its running vnc on [15:52] is that right?

[15:52] LinuxApe: post your /etc/apt/sources.list file. pastebinit /etc/apt/sources.list [15:52] LinuxApe: is this an upgrade? [15:52] danbhfive: upgrade from intrepid to jaunty via internet. [15:53] LinuxApe: did you use update-manager or console? [15:53] hey... how can i replace an specific string for another in all files in a folder? [15:53] LinuxApe: yeah, pastebinit /etc/apt/sources.list [15:53] * gnomefreak thinks console [15:53] danbhfive: gnomefreak: http://pastebin.com/f30173c20 [15:53] update-manager fixes sources.list [15:54] so i did xrandr that just gave me the resolutions available [15:54] bow can i change so i can get higher resolution? [15:54] ltcabral, sed can do this [15:54] i think we added packages from PPA and causing this === maxoo is now known as maxooo [15:55] danbhfive: LinuxApe look at like 55 down [15:55] yeah [15:55] LinuxApe: i suggest removeing the conflcting packages than comment out the non official repos than try again (i hate that gutsy repo) [15:56] ranf: thanks [15:56] can someone help me ? I installed grub2 and now try to install gfxmenu... [15:56] grub2 is still a problem as i recall [15:56] gnomefreak: danbhfive: lines 55 and down were things I re-enabled as per upgrade instructions: "some repos disabled, re-enable after upgrade" Don't think I should have? [15:56] Hi. I have a problem that I described on ubuntuforums: http://tinyurl.com/dhsz3g I tried to use rsync to backup my home folder and I ended up filling up my entire HD. I cannot get any space back even after I removed what I think were the backup files. Any help would be greatly appreciated. [15:56] Hymnosis: you just going to have to spend a little more time getting the Radeon X1950 Pro working , or keeps asking here till someone who has installed the driver helps you :) [15:57] LinuxApe: should not have [15:57] gnomefreak: works fine here... [15:57] LinuxApe: the upgrade process klnows what it is doing [15:57] maxooo: i do not think gfxmenu is compatible with grub2 [15:57] any1 installed mod_python on LAMP on Ubuntu!? I use mod_python.cgihandler but the server keeps returning the whole source code instead of the webpage [15:57] LinuxApe: well, its hard to say. Those repos are not stable [15:57] bah, still broke. [15:57] erUSUL: works for me too but i casnt go by that [15:57] Arcitens: how is that posible? [15:58] no problem man, thanks a lot for your time ;) [15:58] danbhfive: Don't think anything in there would have broken things like printing and thunderbird..... [15:58] kbp: did you setup the directory to execute scripts? You might want to go to apache and ask for better info. [15:58] danbhfive: LinuxApe more than likey un supported repos have higher version of libs packages than official ones do this is why we dont have them ourselves [15:58] I installed "network-manager-pptp", and configured a VPN connection. [15:58] However, clicking on it makes nothing. It doesn't connect at all [15:58] Is there any other thing I need to configure? Is there another/better program? [15:59] gnomefreak: so disable those repos again, and then what command(s) do I issue to get back to "release" versions? [15:59] LinuxApe: without knowing the repo i cant say but i know what thunderbird depnds on and what rdepends are bu without knowing what is in repos i cant tell you [15:59] odinsbane: yes I added mod_python.cgihandler to apache config file (and even .htaccess file) but it doesnt work. It does work when I use mod_python.publisher or PSP only. [15:59] I've been using 9.04 for a few weeks now, everything fine and then i was told i needed to do a partial upgrade for some reason and now suddenly my wifi is not picking anything up. Anyone point in the right direction ? [16:00] erUSUL: http://grub.enbug.org/GraphicalMenuDesign [16:00] sacarlson: I'm not sure. rsync created a new directory /home/jay/Bash/Drive where it backed up my entire home folder. Because I was backing up my home folder and the directory I was backing up to was in my home folder, rsync kept making backups of the backups until my HD was completely full. After some web browsing I was able to delete all of the backed up files from the trash (as far as I can tell). But my system monitor still tells me I have n [16:00] LinuxApe: you have to remove the packages that it says are a problem than comment out the repos than install them again [16:00] kbp I strongly recommend against psp, and really mod_python in general. [16:00] What is the keyboard shortcut for switching desktops in KDE [16:00] Arcitens: ah, that's always good fun [16:00] hi [16:01] jeje [16:01] otra vez con problemas === will___ is now known as throughnothing [16:01] kbp: What exactly are you trying to do? [16:01] pero esta vez, creo que mas serios :P [16:01] odinsbane: lol sure, I just need the cgihandler from mod python only, not psp or publisher handler. I'm doing a project lol [16:01] how do I make ubuntu connect to my main connection automatically? [16:01] LinuxApe: look in synaptic or adept and look up those packages find the *ubuntu# versions === ck is now known as Guest7177 [16:01] kbp: It sounds like an apache thing, .htaccess can make something executeable if you haven't allowed it to. [16:01] gnomefreak: danbhfive: Okay, trying that, thanks for the help! [16:01] gordonjcp: Do you have any ideas on how to get some available space back? [16:01] Arcitens: delete the backups of the backups ;-) [16:01] hlep [16:02] * gnomefreak goes to fix broken crap [16:02] I did. As far as I can tell. [16:02] kbp: I mean can't, you have to set that in the httpd.conf. [16:02] Arcitens: from the commandline, not from nautilus? [16:02] LinuxApe: you also have scrollkeeper installed, which was an upgrade issue. I don't know how to remove obsolete packages from the CLI, but using synaptic, its pretty easy [16:02] gordonjcp: return a webpage from python file (for example test.py: print """content-type: text/html \n etc etc"" will return a webpage when the file is access from user) [16:03] Hymnosis: seems simple enough , download the driver form the link i gave you and do "sh ./ati-driver-installer-9.2-x86.x86_64.run" , follow the prompts :) [16:03] kbp: are you specifically using bare python for a reason? [16:03] odinsbane: I installed LAMP so I have no httpd.conf one, I edit the file /etc/apache2/sites-available/mysite, is it ok? [16:03] kbp: should be [16:03] danbhfive: Okay - I'll check the scrollkeeper issue and remove it if I think it's problematic. [16:03] kbp: as in, is the "homework question" specifically "write a python script to return a web page" ? [16:04] Arcitens: what about delete the trash and mabe a few other none needed items after booting from a cd ? [16:04] I've been using 9.04 for a few weeks now, everything fine and then i was told i needed to do a partial upgrade for some reason and now suddenly my wifi is not picking anything up. Anyone point in the right direction ? [16:04] gordonjcp: I used sudo rm -rf ~/.local/share/Trash [16:04] kbp: I have never used the mod_python request handler for cgi files. [16:04] hi fellas! im trying to run urban terror, and it gives me this error ALSA lib pcm.c:2106:(snd_pcm_open_conf) Cannot open shared library /usr/lib/alsa-lib/libasound_module_pcm_pulse.so [16:04] gordonjcp: lol yea its like that, but im doing a project involve python + mysql + webpage. and they force me to use cgi instead of publisher [16:04] Harvey8765: was a new kernel installed? [16:04] i think so yes [16:04] infact it was [16:04] Hi installed apache2 php5 libapache2-mod-php5 and I did a2enmod php5 but when I view the webpage it parses the html ok but parses the php as text any ideas ? [16:04] Harvey8765: try using the older kernel [16:05] sacarlson: I tried deleting some non-essential files and using apt-get remove to get rid of some programs I don't need. It increased my hardrives free space but not my available space [16:05] how do i do that? [16:05] Arcitens: that should be about right [16:05] Arcitens: I take it you're aware that rm -rf should be treated in much the same way as a running chainsaw? [16:05] Arcitens: but do it from a cd live boot [16:05] odinsbane: nah dont get it wrong, the file is in python code, but mod_python will interpret it as CGI and execute it before deliever the output to users [16:05] anyone here using a lexmark x5470 printer with 8.04? If so, please provide some guidance on how/where you got the information to get it working [16:05] odinsbane: in this case, the output is webpage [16:05] kbp: python *does* have CGI support built in [16:05] Arcitens: mount the disk and clean it up with a boot from cd live [16:06] Harvey8765: at boot, select the other kernel [16:06] Arcitens: I'm not sure that will help but that's all I can think of. [16:06] everything I'm reading indicates that Lexmark will not release information about their hardware [16:06] kbp: I am familiar with apache and cgi scripting but I don't use mod_python, if you are trying to execute a python script I dont think you need mod python either. [16:06] I have tried to install Ubuntu for 6 months and still failed to do so. Great work on user-friendliness there(especially considering I'm a programmer and still can't get stuff working)... [16:06] Hi can someone help me with b43 wireless problem? I don't have internet access when in ubuntu so is there a way to d/l and install the b43 package? [16:06] hey guys [16:06] i am sorry [16:06] I have a problem [16:07] oh ok , you mean the lowest number i guess....and how do i then make it always boot on that kernel? [16:07] Hi, installed apache2 php5 libapache2-mod-php5 and I did a2enmod php5 but when I view the webpage it parses the html ok but parses the php as text any ideas ? [16:07] thanks alot by the way [16:07] gordonjcp: the point is that they want me to execute the python script on the server, and return it back to users as a webpage [16:07] I can't seem to find a proper release notes, I mean detailed explanation of what changed from 8.04 -> 9.04...I only see some upgrade info and known errors... [16:07] gordonjcp: so CGI in python cannot return a webpage [16:07] kbp: http://www.python.org/doc/essays/ppt/sd99east/index.htm <- that is pretty old now (10 years!) but is still approximately correct [16:07] I uninstalled Scim but still have a environment variable GTK_IM_MODULE=scim. where can i get rid of that or change it? [16:07] in the official canonical site [16:07] Harvey8765: well, I would edit your menu.lst so that kernel listing is at the top... but, you should also file a bug report. Good luck! [16:07] Hi all. was hoping for a little help. How do I get Ubuntu 9 to boot with the VESA video drivers? My old video card isn't supported apparently [16:07] what packages are necessary to compile an application from source? [16:08] Ok. Thanks. I'll try it. Not very familiar with mount but I'll see what I can do. [16:08] Harvey8765: You have to edit /boot/grub/menu.lst to change boot sequence. [16:08] I appreciate the help. [16:08] Shaboo, "service apache2 restart" [16:08] odinsbane: i need mod_python because the python scripts will be executed on the server, and return it to people who access that server [16:08] kbp: really these days if it's a serious project you should be using a framework ;-) [16:08] thanks danbhfive i think thats going to be it, thankkyou [16:08] ph_softnet: Does this work for you? http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/releasenotes/904 [16:08] hey i am having trouble formatting my new raid array. it was created using an asus m3n78 mobo which apparantly has hardware raid built in. Anyways, i have been getting the message /dev/mapper/nvidia_fddaeibi1 is apparently in use by the system; will not make a filesystem here! [16:08] thanks khensthoth [16:08] Harvey8765: No probem. [16:08] no [16:08] this is what I found [16:09] kbp: anyway, mod_python maybe doesn't work the way you think it does [16:09] kbp you don't need mod_python for that. [16:09] i mean it has none of the changes [16:09] ranf, tired that no change [16:09] it says...system requirements and known errors [16:09] andrewbishop: add vga=771 to the kernel boot line [16:09] kbp: there's a difference between writing a CGI script in python, and running a web app in python with mod_python ;-) [16:09] I want to know what's changed [16:09] can't seem to find it in this document [16:09] nice. thanks sacarison [16:09] what exactly does vg=771 mean? [16:09] gordonjcp: lol the document was in 1999 [16:10] kbp: the basic principles still hold [16:10] hello [16:10] which is the "printf" used in kernel space? [16:10] kbp: co-incidentally the last time I wrote a CGI script was in about 1999 [16:10] syn-fin2: vga=771 it sets the video mode [16:10] odinsbane: I find no idea because only mod_python can achieve that thing (i.e. interpret source code, give web page to users) [16:10] babio: kprintf ? [16:10] babio: linux device drivers 3 edition [16:10] sacarlson: I understand that, but 771 is what? [16:11] anyone knows where I can find a proper release note from 8.04 -> 9.04? [16:11] gordonjcp: lol but actually I'm not writing CGI scripts, I'm writing python scripts but force the server to interpret it as CGI it and parse the outcome to users [16:11] syn-fin2: I'm not sure but I had a problem with my laptop could boot up with a screen I read about it somewere [16:11] kbp a cgi script will do that. [16:11] babio: "echo" perhaps ? [16:11] thank u [16:11] [15:24:03] i am on ubuntu 8.04 lts, how do i upgrade to 8.10, can haz answer fast please? <--- You can have spelling lessons fast so you can learn to spell four letter words correctly. [16:11] kbp: in what way is that *not* a CGI script? [16:12] kbp mod_python is for writing apache extensions in python [16:12] sacarlson: that's exaclty what I do, I add it to make it work, but what exactly does it do is still mistery to me :) === root is now known as Guest53227 [16:12] syn-fin2: I had to write it on the cd live disk that I load so I can install with it. [16:12] Hi can someone help me with b43 wireless problem? I don't have internet access when in ubuntu so is there a way to d/l and install the b43 package? Can you message me if you have an answer please. I can keep up with all this text [16:12] odinsbane: nah because their system are doing the same (i.e. running cgihandler). I cannot change anything (and hence cannot write any CGI script, exept my python) [16:12] kbp: first what you need to do is learn how to execute a script via apache. [16:12] odinsbane: im trying to make my localhost look like their system so its easier for me to work on [16:13] kbp: mod_python is probably not what you want [16:13] Serraphyn: look in google for "b43-fwcutter offline install" [16:13] kbp what do you write on "their system" [16:13] gordonjcp: I really have no idea. Is python a CGI script !? lol [16:13] hmmm [16:13] kbp: yes [16:13] kbp: how familiar are you with CGI scripts? [16:13] hmmmm [16:14] odinsbane: I mean they will run python code on their server. And their server use cgihandler to interpret that code when users access the server [16:14] odinsbane: im trying to make my localhost looks like their server so its easier for me to work on [16:14] any1 can help me in the quest finding a proper release note for this release? (release notes are known also as changelogs) [16:14] gordonjcp: not at all [16:14] gordonjcp: bash, perl etc.? === erik_ is now known as ravaa === wooj is now known as woojy === woojy is now known as wooj [16:15] !notes | ph_softnet [16:15] ph_softnet: Ubuntu 9.04 (Jaunty Jackalope) release notes can be found here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/JauntyJackalope/ReleaseNotes [16:15] kbp: perhaps you should read some general works on CGI and see what you're letting yourself in for [16:15] how can i configure kde? the config options are greyed out. what's the kdesu command to bring up the control center? [16:15] Anyone kknow the keyboard shortcut for switching desktops in the KDE DE === Odo is now known as Odo081 [16:15] kbp go onto #python and see if anybody there recomends mod_python, go onto apache and try the same thing. What you need to do is setup a directory to execute cgi scripts (python included). [16:15] I want change log... not install lessons [16:16] ph_softnet: release notes are not the same as the changelogs [16:16] like we have upgraded this package to that version...kernel version is this [16:16] well [16:16] ph_softnet: I've never been able to find a detailed log either. I suppose it would be massive due to the scale of the distro... [16:16] hey guys i'm curious.. [16:16] gordonjcp: lol letme read it later, i reckon why do I need to read CGI stuff when the main purpose is just "interpret" python script into web app [16:17] lol [16:17] ph_softnet: you want the changelog of all the changes of all the packages that get shipped with ubuntu ? or only of some of them? if only some of them of which ones? the kernel? glibc? gnome? openoffice? [16:17] odinsbane: yea I asked on Apache one and no1 hs no idea [16:17] odinsbane: *has [16:17] Is there anything other than lighty-enable-mod userdir that one should have to do to get lightty and userdir's working? [16:17] do we have a linux similarity to the apple and windows marketplaces? i know we have repos but i ment where people could sell their programs [16:17] `massive'? [16:17] odinsbane: I think there are more pros on Ubuntu channel so I just came here lol [16:18] ph_softnet: well, yes... There are a fair few packages in the distro... [16:18] i basically want to know what kind of effort has been put on the new release - and mainly what has changed since the last release [16:18] netsurf3: canonical has a partners repositorie [16:18] and not install lessons and troubleshooting [16:18] netsurf3: nobody is stopping you from selling your software on linux, its just that the general feel that linux community has is not to pay for software === dcherniv is now known as usser [16:18] ph_softnet: i already pointed the release notes to you... did you even bothered to read them ? or are you just trolling ? [16:18] ph_softnet: well, I dunno how to do changlelogs from the terminal, but you can get them from packages.ubuntu.com [16:19] no, im just trolling [16:19] you people have no idea what you're talking about [16:19] wait [16:19] most 'major' software release notes (even windows for god's sake) have the following format....http://www.openbsd.org/plus45.html [16:20] where can i download ubuntu 8.10? [16:20] we changed this to that and so on [16:20] where do you have that?\ [16:20] I just want to read it [16:20] 8.10 is still on torrent and official site [16:20] erUSUL: ph_softnet has a point. I've looked for a "major changes in this release" page before and haven't found one [16:20] and yes, I've read that and all it says is system requirements and how to "troubleshoot" [16:20] I seem to have somehow made it so that two instances of GDM start on boot. Any idea how that might have happened or how to kill one? [16:20] ph_softnet: i have an answer to this... [16:21] please do tell me [16:21] because I am so curious [16:21] ph_softnet: one moment, getting the right info [16:21] !enter | ph_softnet [16:21] ph_softnet: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation! [16:21] the "Enter" key?lol [16:22] I installed "network-manager-pppt" and configured a VPN connection [16:22] However, when I click on this connection, nothing at all happens [16:22] Someone has any idea of what's going on?

On the other hand, I already had a menu with only text, and forgot, how I did it. [17:16] KnoppixNoob: too bad... judging from your lsmod it should work [17:16] mattgyver: my usb gizmos auto open in gnome here when i plug them in.. do some usb devices auto open and that one dont?

[17:18] Dr_Willis, in this case i have 3 partitons on this drive, fat32, ext3, and wbfs. The fat32, and ext3 automatically mount when the device is plugged in, however the wbfs will not ,i think due to the nature of it not being a real filesystem [17:18] hdmi works in ubuntu? [17:18] KnoppixNoob: of a complete harddisk or of a single partition? [17:18] !hdmi [17:18] Sorry, I don't know anything about hdmi [17:18] i used gparted to format my external hdd to fat32. now when i move files from one drive to the external, the transfer hangs up and sticks at whatever percentage. whats going on? [17:18] mattgyver: so How are you mounting it at all then? [17:18] mattgyver: what command line invocation do you use to mount it? [17:19] sudo ./wbfuse /dev/sdg3 /media/wbfs [17:19] that will mount it to /media/wbsf [17:19] 1 partition [17:19] my drive shows up in lsusb and mounts automatically [17:19] mattgyver: you MIGHT be able to tweak the hal stuff... but it may just be easier to make a script/icon for the desktop to access it.

[21:18] Iradieh: sudo update-rc.d -f gdm remove [21:18] Iradieh: Use the update-rc.d to make gdm not start. [21:19] erUSUL: Heh! [21:19] genii: how? [21:19] erUSUL: I still need GDM for NX [21:19] genii: ;P [21:19] Iradieh: erUSUL gave you the command [21:19] gdm is x [21:19] Well I'm on an acer laptop with these keys at the side (internet and stuff) and the bluetooth and wireless buttons work but none of the others do. i have been trying to get them to do something in keyboard shortcuts but it's not working. I have also tried going into CTRL + ALT F1 and pressing the buttons to find the key codes but it's not saying anything.Also. I i accidentaly press the wireless button it disables it but i press it [21:19] Ok [21:19] erUSUL: That will still work for NX then? [21:20] Magician: hah, I hit "undo changes to partitions" after going into "new partition table" and now it's hanging again - it'll probably be ok after it times out though [21:20] Iradieh: i dunno never used it but freenx should start it for you (or that's the logical thing to do) [21:20] erUSUL: Thanks alot mate [21:20] Iradieh: no problem [21:20] reboot to try it out [21:20] no machine is cool [21:20] vnc is retarded to use unless you want the same X-session that is running [21:20] even windows has support for NX [21:21] hi, I would like to know if there's a way to launch a program at startup but only after my internet is connected [21:21] Iradieh, you can make vnc use a different session very easily [21:21] bob__: ok, now 'aplay -l' still prints the same, but 'asoundconf list' prints a hilarious "M1010LT" card...

[21:23] Yeah but I prefer to know I'm not just being ignored [21:23] Do Ubuntu 8.10....... support 6 GB ram ? [21:23] i dont think so ?.... [21:23] The Bluetooth and the Wireless ones do. [21:23] ToxOo: 64 bit does [21:23] I must run a script in if-up.d? I'm completely new to linux so i was hoping there was an easy way to do it... [21:24] erUSUL: not 32 bit ? [21:24] ToxOo: the amd64 version of 8.10 should [21:24] Grinchy94: those buttons use a prorietary interface which Linux has no support for. The bluetooth and wireless buttons are connected differently to the other buttons [21:24] Only 32 bit [21:24] ToxOo: no 32 bit does not [21:24] hi, im trying to install jaunty on my Gericom Blockbuster N251C1, during the file copy process i get a "kernel panic - not syncing: Fatal exception in interrupt", memtest returned no errors, validated image integrity [21:24] Thanks [21:24] is there a way to get my motherboard information from either dmesg or one of the /procs? [21:24] Grinchy94: almost no one is ignored here [21:24] ToxOo: 32-bit operating systems can usually only address about 4 GB [21:24] hi, how do i tell what process is stealing control of alsa? [21:24] Ok. Dumb question. I installed easy peasy but don't recall ever putting in an su passwd. I put it two passwds, one for something I can't recall, and another for my personal user, during installation, but neither of those work when I do an "su" [21:24] wart: you shouldn't ne using su [21:24] can i reboot in single user/root mode somehow? [21:24] *be [21:24] lstarnes: but Centos 5.3 on same hardware is supporting 6 GB [21:24] dft: "sudo dmidecode" should give you everything you want [21:24] wart: try sudo -i [21:25] erUSUL: ty, I'll give it ago [21:25] ToxOo: is it the 64-bit version of centos? [21:25] ok [21:25] ToxOo: the ubuntu server kernel does support more memory in 32 bits [21:25] lsstranes: No [21:25] ToxOo: it might be using PAW [21:25] *PAE [21:25] It may be showing 6GB but It may not actually be using it. That happens a lot [21:25] erUSUL: any solution to put support of 6 gb in ubuntu 8.10 32 bit ? [21:25] ToxOo: server kernels (ubuntu centos) enables PAE and highmem so they support up to 64 GiB [21:25] whats gnome-pow [21:25] lstarnes: Nop.. kernel is 2.6.18-128.el5xen [21:26] toxoo: if you want >4gb you'll have to run x64 [21:26] ToxOo: why not use 64 bits ? [21:26] theres no way around it [21:26] genii: i have macbook (aluminium ) .i cant hear any sound . [21:26] erUSUL: yes.. but i was jst asking about 32 bit.. [21:26] anywayz.. its mean only 64 bit.. [21:26] hmm.. [21:27] ok thanks alot ..!! [21:27] ToxOo: well if you insist in 32 bit a solutionm may be to use the server kernl (you may loose some hardware support) or recompile the kernel to enable highmem [21:27] genii: i cant find /etc/modprobe.d/options in janty [21:27] !kernel > ToxOo [21:27] ToxOo, please see my private message [21:27] I just upgraded my server to Jaunty, and now one of the websites I'm building doesn't work. www.maryanska.com it worked before I made the upgrade [21:27] After installing ubuntu from a live cd, made by remastersys backup iso, my printer services is missing but everything is fine if loaded off live cd any help here?

Guides for 8.10 suggest it is in Encryption & Keyrings, but there's no "Gnome Keyring" tab [21:36] Nima__: Not a public one.

[21:37] patrick-Ubuntu: I think there are hooks for running scripts.. check the folder /etc/network/if.up or similar [21:37] patrick-Ubuntu: you need to have the internet connection script run your program after it connects.

[21:39] magician i mucked up my apt so that won't work [21:39] bob__: alsaconf?

Just a long passphrase I'll have to save again ;) [21:39] but you'll have to delete the keyring first [21:39] bob__: there is no such package here?

[21:44] tom_de_tom: I would start removing plugins.. a clean firefox is pretty light [21:44] Slart, Well, I browsed through the Ubuntu Launchpad, and it appears they have a source released that claims to work on Hardy, but it's not in Apt [21:44] Just figured out why xrandr wasn't working... guess something in my xorg.conf didn't like my setup :) [21:44] And I'm not sure where to check why [21:44] first off all paste bin [21:44] lspci [21:44] http://paste.ubuntu.com/165673/ [21:44] xorg.conf [21:44] http://paste.ubuntu.com/165675/ [21:44] rver [21:44] mykal: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.

Being usually at a library I have accidently startled entire rooms blasting Stravinsky unt [21:56] il someone angrily nudges me. So the question is -- how can I prevent the external touch buttons from triggering audio? I also have to wait until ubuntu boots up to plug in my earbuds or it will go through both the earbuds and the internal speakers. Thanks!

Tried the forums? [22:04] still a read only file system :( === usr_masse is now known as smithjnr [22:05] edeca: are you good @ this stuff? [22:05] it is pissing me off big time [22:05] cbwcjw, searching now [22:05] iGadget: I doubt it's a kernel module.. are you really sure about the spelling? [22:05] Hi everyone. I downloaded the source of a program and installed as the readme instructed (./configure, then make) but the system is not recognizing the command. what may be the problem? [22:06] Waldir: you did ./configure, then make.. that's all the instructions said ? not "sudo make install" ? [22:06] Slart, absolutely. My entire /dev/mapper is full of these devices, substituting the usual /dev/mdX and /dev/hdX [22:07] Hey, so... I'm havin' some great problems with my kubuntu wireless. Forumlink- http://tinyurl.com/cfy98z [22:07] No help? [22:07] cbwcjw, nothing on the forums about this either :( [22:07] Slart: I'll recheck but I'm pretty sure what it said. it is the work of a phd thesis so I'm guessing it's not software that has been carefully configured and packaged for easy install [22:07] iGadget: Try posting something [22:07] iGadget: hmm.. sounds like something is seriously broken =/ [22:08] cbwcjw, will do, as soon as I get one [22:08] !acroread [22:08] Sorry, I don't know anything about acroread [22:08] Slart, yup... and it worked fine in Hardy, so it's a regression [22:08] question, Slart. can i put a variable instead of an integer in an array retriever thing? like instead of $food[2] i'd put like $x = 1 and then do $food[$x] [22:08] what would be the best doc 2 pdf converter? open office fails to recognize symbols (math) appropriately [22:08] Waldir: and you know you have to write ./awesomeprogram to run the program awesomeprogram in the current dir? [22:08] > [22:08] ? [22:08] Slart: lol i didn't notice, there was a "make install" I should have done next :P [22:08] because that'd mean i could loop through the array [22:08] loltastic: well.. have you tried? [22:08] im trying to configure evolution-mapi to connect to my schools OWA, i installed evolution-mapi. Now i have to fill in the SERVER and DOMAIN NAME, what do i have to fill in there, i only have the url [22:08] mykal, your graphics adapter is kind of old... but should be supported by the ati driver I guess [22:08] Waldir: you might need to put a "sudo" in front of that.. you usually have to be root to install stuff [22:08] Slart: going to now [22:09] Slart: thanks :) i did seem to get a few errors without sudo [22:09] ATI Technologies Inc Rage 128 Pro Ultra TF [22:09] only thing i've messed with is mIRC, and arrays look a lot like hash tables in mirc [22:09] hi, can anybody reccomend me a good third (preferably non-unix) operating system for my xp, and ubuntu and something triple boot. [22:09] should work out of the box, right? [22:09] Waldir: you're welcome.. that "./configure, make, sudo make install" is very common.. [22:10] * iGadget will brb [22:10] loltastic: the hash tables in mIRC probably corresponds to an array deeper down somehow [22:10] Slart: I've done it once or twice indeed, but I guess I havent got used to it yet... [22:10] it seems to be working now :) [22:10] anybody? [22:10] tones:try one of the bsd's [22:11] ok thanks, i will [22:11] IGadget: Tried that it booted into Low power mode. [22:11] tones: if you just want to get to know some different operating systems, taht is [22:11] Could somebody tell me why strigi isn't working on Kubuntu 9.04 + KDE 4.2.3 ? (nor older versions) [22:11] Trying to determine what package linux-kernel-devel became in 9.04 [22:12] hi all. I have one login, I accidently deleted the group 'admin' so tha single user that was my sudo user now does not have sudo rights. I booted into recovery, and did a 'addgroup --system admin' then decided to add a second user to be my sudo account, so 'adduser --system sudouser' [22:12] Slart: yes, im just looking about and testing new grounds [22:12] My desktop is broken, how do I upgrade my distro from the command line? [22:12] please [22:12] PLyTheMan: aptitude dist-upgrade [22:12] thanks [22:12] !upgrade | PLyTheMan [22:12] PLyTheMan: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes - see also http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/upgrading [22:12] Or that, much more useful. [22:12] if i login with non sudo account, I thought I could 'su sudouser' to perform sudo commands...but i dont seem to be able to do so [22:12] PLyTheMan: I think there is a script.. or some switch for either apt or update-manager [22:12] is there any decent word viewer I can use? [22:12] ok here goes, i did while ($food[$x]) { then at i had each loop printf the element in the array, then increment $x each loop cycle. going to see if it works [22:13] yeah, my desktop is still there, my cursor changes over buttons, but its all a white screen aside from the cursor [22:13] loltastic: I dont think this is really the place to programming language support questions [22:13] Though the r128 driver would work. But nooooo, [22:13] why does ubuntu upgrading need 1+ GB on / ? i have only 400mb, and it gave me an error. is there a way to hack this ? [22:13] j0nr: the root password is disabled in ubuntu.. use sudo instead [22:13] did anyone here really see any difference in boot times when upgrading from intrepid to jaunty? maybe it's more noticeable on a fresh install? it still takes me 45seconds from grub to gdm [22:13] !root | j0nr [22:13] j0nr: Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth... there is no root password. Then you will see that it is 'sudo' that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo [22:13] !sudo | j0nr [22:13] j0nr: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more information.

I upgraded from intrepid too.. it's possible that a fresh install will be snappier [22:15] is there a way to set up a network boot between windows and linux ? [22:15] I figured out how to get SU in Terminal on Jaunty [22:15] mykal: there's all kinds of stupid things you can do... noone's saying it's impossible to shoot yourself in the foot.. the gun just isn't loaded by default [22:15] foreplay: What sort of network boot? [22:16] mykal: What was wrong with it? [22:16] well... I guess my time's up, new day tomorrow. [22:16] nightynight... [22:16] I only get 800x600 resolution [22:16] mykal: You were talking about su? [22:16] Slart: in a root prompt (recoverymode) i did 'addgroup --system admin' (to replace wha I removed) and then 'adduser --system sudouser'.... now logging in with nonsudouser, I can't seem to su to new sudouser [22:16] i want to connect to my network drive on this pc and install win7 becuse i dont have a dvd drive on the linux box or this one [22:16] Slart: why use sudo when you can have root [22:16] because* [22:16] Is there a application I can use similar to msn / yahoo so I can see and talk to my girlfriend?

[22:19] Slart: JordanC says Kopete, whatyou think? [22:20] Slart: ok no worries [22:20] Slart: makes sense [22:20] Maximo: I used kopete before pidgin became the new default.. it was nice but it didn't have video back then.. not sure how it works now === root is now known as Guest52437 [22:20] what's wrong if during video conferencing your outgoing image looks like this? http://members.home.nl/v.vanbruchem/wrong%20image.gif ?

The desktop loaded, but the toolbars and the Alt-F2 key didn't load. [22:20] So when I log into my desktop its all a white screen with a cursor. My cursor will change depending on what it is over, but I can't see anything. I tried "sudo aptitude dist-upgrade" on a command line (crtl alt F1) and it upgraded, but my screen is still white. Should I try recovery mode? [22:20] JordanC: I'm starting to hate it. Suggestions? [22:21] help [22:21] and when I restart I can see my desktop flash by, but only for a second [22:21] Hm, to be honest.. I don't use IM programs that much [22:21] Slart: I can use it with Ubuntu no problmo, correct? [22:21] I use Kopete if I ever need to [22:21] That or Gizmo [22:21] Vinceman: I don't know how to fix it but it looks like your camers is filming in one resolution but whatever comes next thinks it's in another resolution [22:22] Emesene is good [22:22] what are good key shortcuts that are free by default [22:22] Maximo: I think kopete is used in kUbuntu.. if it is default in kubuntu it should work without problems.. even in regular ubuntu [22:22] Slart surely in linux you can edit the camera parameters [22:22] does anyone know how I can get my resolution higher in 9.04? [22:22] I just downloaded ubuntu 9.04. I messed around with the screen resolution, logged out, and logged back in. The desktop loaded, but the toolbars and the Alt-F2 key didn't load. [22:22] Edit your xorg conf [22:22] Vinceman: you can do just about anything.. some things are very very hard though [22:22] Slart: let me try it then [22:22] Slart, please note that local viewing with the cam works! [22:22] Grr, DVD playback still not working [22:23] Vinceman: with the current state of webcams and linux I'm happy as long as I don't get a completely black screen =) [22:23] JordanC: getting read errors? not able to decrypt? [22:23] c'mon, linux has to be quite sophisticated already now [22:23] Vinceman: it has to be? I don't think anyone has told linux that..=) [22:23] who would know it? [22:23] So when I log into my desktop its all a white screen with a cursor. My cursor will change depending on what it is over, but I can't see anything. I tried "sudo aptitude dist-upgrade" on a command line (crtl alt F1) and it upgraded, but my screen is still white. When I restart my desktop as normal flashes by as it all shuts down. Should I try recovery mode? [22:23] how to fix it I mean.. Slart? [22:24] Slart: Yep, even on VLC [22:24] I've installed the restricted extras [22:24] hi guys! [22:24] Vinceman: I have no idea.. my webcam doesn't work at all.. I've never had anything to mess with [22:24] JordanC: same as for me then..

Jaunty used a default RTL driver for it (fcc id: PANWL1102 gericom branded) [22:24] PLyTheMan: sounds like a problem with gdm, check /etc/logs [22:24] k [22:25] JordanC: I've tried installing/uninstalling/reinstalling the libdvdread decss packages, running the scripts etc etc.. no change [22:25] is there a way to have a task bar with multiple rows instead of just one? [22:25] Does anybody knos [22:25] does anybody know a Delux Pixart driver?? [22:25] Vinceman: mm.. my webcam worked on hardy.. but not in intrepid and not in jaunty.. [22:25] jk_ not many people know much here [22:25] so upgrading to Jaunty might help? [22:25] doesnt ubuntu detect attached pcmia cards when they were nto present during installation? [22:26] Slart: Upgraded from 8.10 ? [22:26] Vinceman: try a live cd.. see if the camera works there [22:26] JordanC: yup [22:26] does anybody know a Delux Pixart driver?? [22:26] I messed with the screen resolution settings, logged off, logged back in, and the desktop toolbars were gone (all I could see was an iconless desktop).

But if I try to run ssh as a command, I see my user log in via the auth logs on both the outside and inside hosts, but it just sits there and never prints a prompt, BUT I can type commands and see the output of commands. Tips? [22:28] tones, cp ? no [22:28] dn4: it's something like "find -iname pdf --exec mv {} /media/disk/pdf/" [22:28] there is none btw :) [22:28] But that is one REALLY annoying bug [22:28] cp will just waste more space :( [22:28] JordanC: recompiling what? vlc? the kernel? [22:28] dn4: cp -r, the -r means recursive [22:29] I just want to know what my xorg.conf should look like for an ATI Technologies Inc Rage 128 Pro Ultra TF?

[22:32] Rabbitbunny, -should +show [22:32] slart I think that command does it [22:33] d0x93: you mean on the "window List" panel applet?

Simply remove one applet. right click to see the options.

[22:35] linxeh: So I would be able to find the word Ubuntu inside of a file within a directory of files? [22:35] sure [22:35] linxeh: Because I know what I need is a file, but I don't know which one [22:35] its linux [22:36] d0x93: Ah, yeah, i'd like that to, but no, there's no way. [22:36] Slart, sometimes it truly is, that is why I want to figure out now how to delete all of the empty directories [22:36] Best support community my shoes [22:36] mykal: dIDN'T SEE YOUR QUESTION [22:36] dn4: I'm not really sure.. perhaps there is a switch for "find" that can do it.. (perhaps if directory size is small enough) [22:37] * Rabbitbunny moves his head so he can see his keyboard status lights...

So my question is: how can I modify the initramfs to run dmraid -ay before it tries to mount the raid drives? I found a script in there I [22:39] knoppix: vinceman? with the webcam? [22:39] I even found an ATI channel but no one is saying anything in there [22:39] jumbers: the * means all files in the current directory (and the -R will go through sub directories) [22:39] I get a "Your desktop is only reachable over the local network." when enabling remote accss [22:39] yes [22:40] knoppix: ok.. does it work in knoppix?

[22:41] mykal: thats an old card ;-) [22:41] I wonder if that command will find the folder I named wtfishthksfjdlalsjkew [22:41] dieg1: bad cooler, bad ram, or overclocked, or the psu can't cope with the demand you put on it [22:42] ahtmly2k: presst alt-f2 and type it in, select "run in terminal". it makes the box use that driver [22:42] ahtmly2k: It means to load the module called gspca. [22:42] dieg1: also possible that there is a bug in one of the drivers you are using. [22:42] ahtmly2k: You will also want to use: sudo at the beginning of that command [22:42] -!- Danilo-DnG [n=Danilo-D@201-42-71-141.dsl.telesp.net.br] has quit [Read error: 110 (Connection timed out)] [22:42] 17:37 < dn4> dn4@dn4:/media/disk$ find -depth -type d -empty -exec rmdir {} \; [22:42] 17:37 < Magician> panfist pm me [22:42] *yawn*...

[22:44] nuttin happened [22:44] is there a command to completely reinstall compiz? apparently mine is all messed up [22:44] panfist: to pm in irssi type /msg (if I remember correctly) [22:44] Rabbitbunny, fyi, increasing the panel size to 60px works--two rows! :) [22:44] in regards to dyndns, that's what i did when i wanted DNS on my windows box, but it's a free service i'm depending on someone else. can't the ubuntu box do it for me without depending on the outside? [22:44] sharperguy, only way I know would be to disable the screensaver. [22:44] panfist: your nick also has to be registered with freenode [22:45] jdu, :( is there not an automatic way to do it like with totem? [22:45] d0x93: no repeats? [22:45] dieg1: it might be - I'd try either a different version, or a different one (say the stock xorg one, and live without compiz for a while to see if it carries on). You might also look to see if there are different kernels perhaps [22:45] Rabbitbunny, yes [22:45] hi all, I'm having trouble writing iso to disc on Ubuntu 9 [22:45] d0x93: Awesome. Thanks [22:45] Rabbitbunny, one panel, set its size to 60px [22:45] CoCoon: use k3b.. sometimes brasero has issues [22:45] linxeh: linux kernels or driver kernels? [22:45] dieg1: it is possible its a PSU issue though; we've got a number of boxes at work that suffer that way [22:46] I just want a better resolution than 800x600. I'm not greedy. Would settle for 801x601. [22:46] dieg1: eh? linux kernel :p [22:46] Scunizi: thanks, I'll give it a try! [22:46] is there a script to scan ports and baud rates looking for a modem? [22:46] sharperguy, perhaps you could get firefox to run something like: gconftool-2 --type bool --set /apps/gnome-screensaver/idle_activation_enabled "false" when it enters full screen mode. [22:46] CarlFK: i think so [22:46] !modem | CarlFK [22:46] CarlFK: You want to connect via dial-up? Read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DialupModemHowto [22:47] panfist: You need some place on the internet-at-large which has a findable domain name which then also can somehow know that your home box is now currently at IP w.x.y.z [22:47] sharperguy, and then gconftool-2 --type bool --set /apps/gnome-screensaver/idle_activation_enabled "true" when it exits full screen [22:47] linxeh: thanks my guess is video driver, I'll continue working to see if it happens again [22:47] anyone who knows dm-raid!

I found a script in there I [22:47] !commands [22:47] The linux terminal or command-line interface is very powerful.

[23:02] yeah i cant use webcam or view them [23:02] netbook [23:02] Tif, and you said it had worked before.

[23:09] not to mention ati drivers [23:10] it appears ubuntu and linux in general generally lack at least one core driver per install that you most definitely need [23:11] in my case at least 2, i havent tried my modem or various other ports on here, but im sure that will be the case [23:11] i have been on the ASLA page and no luck [23:11] yash: how come a img is being downloaded from the site?

Adium (Mac OSX only) [23:21] yeah that would be nice [23:21] Geb: I don't know. I don't do upgrades. And I always felt ill-advised to do upgrades.

I don't want to hear the first 2 hours of the mp3 again, and the slider doesn't do anything [23:22] memfisto: create .ssh/authorized_keys2 on the remote machine, and put my pubkey in there?

Why? [23:30] Shay: then it is most likely lost [23:30] dang [23:31] wish i started learning linux years back :( [23:31] deever: maybe it needs different modprobe options? [23:31] Bah. I uninstalled OSS and tried to reconfigure PulseAudio and now it won't detect my devices.

I fell in love with xpud's plate but can't make it fly [23:35] mibzzer15: you need to boot either boot a livecd and mount /boot from your install to play with menu.lust and change the partitions to the correct options (you'll find them in device.map in your boot/grub directory) [23:35] dtchen, I don't think there's any bug, I just want PulseAudio to detect my devices. [23:35] mibzzer15: or you'll need to edit the grub menu directly - which is more complex [23:35] ActionParsnip, heh -- I'll buy that [23:35] mibzzer15: do you get the grub menu ? [23:35] ikonia: i am a noob to this, so it there a manual or something that says what i can do? [23:35] mrwes: you tried xpud?

[23:40] alt f2 [23:40] mibzzer15: applications -> accessories menu [23:40] gnome-terminal [23:41] ikonia: i am on the main screen of the cd when i first boot up [23:41] mibzzer15: applications menu, then the accessories menu [23:41] ikonia: there is no aplications menu [23:42] mibzzer15: your usinb ubuntu yes ? [23:42] think mibzzer15 means the installer cd [23:42] eseven73: the installer cd is a livecd desktop [23:42] hey, does anyone know a way to bypass password in a .ace archive file ? [23:42] isnt ubuntu cd same as installer cd? [23:42] I'm still having problems getting windows to show up in the menu.lst. I booted to the live cd to recover grub, but its still not working for some reason [23:42] yes [23:42] I've heard ubuntu 9.04 has a problem with full screen flash, is the problem fixed? [23:42] nevermind I thought you were in no GUI mode [23:43] i have 19 gig unused, but 0 free...? [23:43] lol [23:43] pengo: where are ou seeing that [23:43] pengo: how large a partition? [23:43] ikonia: df -h [23:43] pengo: please pastebin the output of df -h [23:43] pengo: ext2/3/4 reserve some space for the superuser by default [23:43] mzz: about 450 gig [23:43] pengo: yeah, that sounds about right then. [23:44] ikonia: i couldn't save it before i rebooted into windows [23:44] mzz: but 19 gigs?? [23:44] i delete stuff and i can't refill it [23:44] pengo: tune2fs lets you change the amount of reserved space (it's a percentage). But you may not want to, since very full filesystems are unhappy (get fragmented) [23:44] test [23:44] test [23:45] kk [23:45] FrankQC: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. [23:45] mzz: i'm sure i've only had 5 free before.. but thanks will try tune2fs [23:45] pengo: it's a percentage of the partition size, and the superuser can still use those blocks [23:45] pqpq: THANKS [23:45] also I use ext2fsd to access the drive from windows.. would that effect it? [23:45] pengo: the default is 5%, which means about 22GiB of your 450GiB partition [23:46] mzz: ah k thanks [23:46] pengo: I have no idea if that driver respects this reserved space [23:46] mzz: it doesn't seem to :) [23:46] I am trying to run a program called Solfege (educational music theory prog) it gives me an error "no module named oss_sequencer2" [23:46] !test | FrankQC [23:46] FrankQC: sigh... again? I'm busy here, I already told you it failed. [23:47] mzz: thanks again [23:47] if i boot from a installer cd, can i use the "try ubuntu without any change to your computer" option to get into a terminal, just so i can reinstall grub? [23:47] mibzzer15: yes [23:47] ok === epaphus is now known as Brun2 [23:47] mibzzer15: well, you can get to a terminal. I don't remember if the grub binary is available there or if you'll have to chroot into your install to get at it [23:48] I am trying to run a program called Solfege (educational music theory prog) it gives me an error "no module named oss_sequencer2" and "you should configure sound from the preferences window, and try to use an external midi player. Or try to recompile the program and check for error messages to see why the module is not built." [23:48] on jaunty 64 [23:49] SultansElephant: And you installed this application through package manager, yes? Since I see it is in the repositories [23:49] !info solfege [23:49] solfege (source: solfege): Ear training software. In component universe, is optional. Version 3.11.3-4ubuntu2 (jaunty), package size 2637 kB, installed size 11784 kB [23:50] genii: through the add/remove [23:50] SultansElephant: OK. [23:50] not synaptic, not sure if there's a difference [23:50] hello all, plz solve my headphones low volume problem in ubuntu 9.04 and playing mp3 files in sound player [23:50] what exactly is ear training? [23:51] do you think I am able to install Ubuntu, and Fedora, on 1 external HD? [23:51] anyway so in the preferences of the program the WAV test works, the MIDI test works, the MP3 and OGG do not exist [23:51] just like side by side [23:51] mibzzer15: as long as it has enough space, yes [23:52] ok, definitley enough space [23:52] hello all, plz solve my headphones low volume problem in ubuntu 9.04 and playing mp3 files in sound player [23:52] the program requires me to put in the exact path to OGG and mp3 there's no browse [23:53] SultansElephant: There seems something about it here: http://www.uluga.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1136670&page=3 You may want to try what is suggested in posting number 24 there [23:53] ActionParsnip: ear training is music theory educational software [23:53] ActionParsnio: when i am installing ubuntu, am using the partitioner, do i just check the "install them side by side, choosing between them each startup" option? [23:53] SultansElephant: im familiar with music theory [23:53] does anyone know how to take all the free space on a ntfs partition and turning that into an ext3 partition for linux [23:53] genii: Will do, thank you very much. [23:53] ActionParsnip: which modprobe options? [23:53] ActionParsnip: I apologize, was responding to what exactly is ear training? [23:53] ubuntu_: iirc gparted can mostly do this (shrink the partition, then create a new one in the free space) [23:53] ubuntu_: maybe try using EASEUS partition manager, free too, really good [23:53] ubuntu, its easier to delete the partition and recreate new ones [23:54] ubuntu_: you can resize partitions in the live environment (makes life easier) but its easier to plan partitions at install time [23:54] ActionParsnip: when i am installing ubuntu, am using the partitioner, do i just check the "install them side by side, choosing between them each startup" option? [23:54] mibzzer15, yes [23:54] SultansElephant: sorry, i didnt mean to sound snappy, was just stating a fact [23:54] deever: maybe it needs different options at modprobe time to work [23:55] hello all, plz solve my headphones low volume problem in ubuntu 9.04 and playing mp3 files in sound player [23:55] SultansElephant: might have a nosey of it later [23:55] ahhh GParted! [23:55] I just bought an dell mini with ubuntu 8.04 does anyone know if there are any problems with upgrading to 9.04 netbook remix? === dereine[OFF] is now known as dereine [23:56] does anyone know how to take the unused space on the /dev/sda1 ntfs in GParted? [23:56] luke: it might be better to do a clean install if using the netbook-remix. use the UNR img file/flashdrive to install. [23:57] is this ubuntu? [23:57] ActionParsnip: yes, but *which* modprobe options! [23:57] luke: the UNR works great on my Aceraspireone. I just had to do like 3 little tweaks [23:57] billisnice2: its #ubuntu [23:57] Hola [23:57] ActionParsnip: i've tried so much by now. [23:57] deever: you'll have to websearch round, it varys from module to module [23:57] UNR is a good distro for the Aspire One [23:57] thats what i was thinking thanks [23:57] hi, how can I make google earth not so laggy? [23:58] genii: This is a fresh install and my sound is working. It seems I need to just use the app's preferences and give it a proper directory for both mp3 and OGG. If you could help me figure that out, I would appreciate it. [23:58] Dr_Willis: what tweaks did you need? [23:58] Hola [23:58] mib_rls91y, do you have a nvidia graphics card? [23:58] Amigadude: there was one kernel option, and one module/package to load.. and i think i tweaked somthing in the xorg.conf - it was on teh aceraspireone ubuntu wiki page [23:58] mib_rls91y: reduce screen res, install video drivers, set nice value of process to -3 or so [23:59] Amigadude: the only remainging bug is that the right side sd card. must have a card in the slot at boot.. or else the system cant see/use it. [23:59] Genii: for example by default the midi file points to /usr/bin/timidity -idqq %s (working) ; WAV points to /usr/bin/aplay (working) but OGG and mp3 point to /usr/bin/mpg123 (does not exist) and /usr/bin/ogg123 (does not exist) [23:59] Amigadude: the left side slot works with 1 tweek.
