| Dr_Willis | billisnice2: dependoing on your irc client. theres different ways to hide the parts/joins/extra messages | 00:04 |

| genii | sadsad: You didn't want it run at boot, but you sometimes might want to run it? Otherwise not not just uninstall it. Anyhow, perhaps see: man update-rc.d for how to add/remove stuff in/etc/rcX.d and so on | 00:05 |

| allowoverride | havent work much with wireless and print servers on ubuntu | 00:08 |
| Dr_Willis | allowoverride: ls that laptop the only wireless machine? | 00:08 |
| allowoverride | yes | 00:08 |
| FrankQC | allowoverride: check your firewall maybe it's blocking? | 00:08 |
| allowoverride | i turned it off | 00:08 |
| allowoverride | same thing | 00:08 |

| mib_rls91y | hi, how can I make google earth not so laggy? | 00:09 |
| allowoverride | it used to work | 00:09 |
| allowoverride | once i switched to wicd it seems that is when it started | 00:09 |
| FrankQC | allowoverride: Check to make sure your Router doesn't filter MAC addresses | 00:09 |
| allowoverride | was using networkmanager | 00:09 |
| allowoverride | no filter on router, checked. never has | 00:09 |
| allowoverride | its a linksys mind you ;) | 00:09 |
| FrankQC | Yea | 00:09 |
| FrankQC | I use a linksys w/ dd-wrt firmware | 00:09 |
| sadsad | genii: i want to use it but manually, i'm building a livecd and i wonder how can it be done without running update-rc.d after booting...? | 00:09 |
| jeiworth | allowoverride: so you can only ping the gateway or everything in the network except for the printserver? | 00:10 |
| allowoverride | wicd is using wext, the only proto that works. | 00:10 |
| allowoverride | yes i can | 00:10 |
| allowoverride | just not printserver | 00:10 |
| allowoverride | its usb's to the wireless printserver | 00:10 |
| allowoverride | it used to have the ethernet to back of printer | 00:10 |
| allowoverride | but all other computers see with ping, just not this lappy | 00:11 |
| genii | sadsad: Not easily | 00:11 |
| allowoverride | its confusing the shyt ouf of me | 00:11 |
| FrankQC | It does sound confusing lol | 00:11 |
| allowoverride | totally | 00:11 |
| allowoverride | its something cheesy i know | 00:11 |
| jeiworth | uhm do you use a different ip range for your wireless network maybe | 00:11 |
| jeiworth | ? | 00:11 |
| allowoverride | no jeiworth | 00:12 |
| allowoverride | not even | 00:12 |

| allowoverride | 1 subnet. it used to work, once i made the switch to wicd it seems to have started | 00:13 |
| FrankQC | Allowoverride, have you DHCP'd your IPv4 to your printer's MAC address? | 00:13 |
| jeiworth | allowoverride: straaaange | 00:13 |
| allowoverride | wicd support is hopeless | 00:13 |
| allowoverride | my lappy is static | 00:13 |
| allowoverride | my printserver is static | 00:13 |
| FrankQC | Ping your printserver's IPv4 | 00:13 |
| allowoverride | i tried dhcp'd printserv addy, but same result | 00:13 |
| allowoverride | no reply | 00:13 |
| allowoverride | ping 192.168.200.100 | 00:14 |

| allowoverride | all of them | 00:14 |
| SultansElephant | _duncan: did you have WoW going with Wine in 8.10? | 00:14 |
| allowoverride | all wired | 00:14 |
| FrankQC | Are they connected via ethernet? | 00:14 |
| allowoverride | yep | 00:14 |
| allowoverride | all wired | 00:14 |
| FloodBot3 | allowoverride: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 00:14 |
| jeiworth | allowoverride: and from your laptop you can ping the other machines except for the print server? | 00:14 |
| FrankQC | ok, plug your laptop via Ethernet and check to see if it's going to work | 00:14 |
| allowoverride | yes correct | 00:14 |
| Magician | wine works the same with wow in 9.04 as it did with 8.10 | 00:15 |
| allowoverride | stand by.. | 00:15 |
| sadsad | genii: you know how? | 00:15 |
| fogus | I need to talk to someone about using ubuntu as a file server (NAS like) for approx 10TB of data on a gigabit lan. All my data must be encrypted with truecrypt. I would like the drives to be independently mountable (not stripes of data and no files spanning across two drives), but I need these drives to show up as "one drive" (one continuous blob of space) on the network. how can I do this? | 00:15 |
| allowoverride | brb | 00:15 |
| FrankQC | allowoverride | 00:15 |
| allowoverride | gonna switch nets | 00:15 |
| FrankQC | What are you going to do? | 00:15 |
| FrankQC | Go ethernet and ping it to see if it works | 00:16 |
| allowoverride | yep | 00:16 |
| genii | allowoverride: "192.168.200.90" box that does not know how to reach 192.168.200.100 is the default gateway for the other boxes too? | 00:16 |
| allowoverride | brb | 00:16 |

| allowoverride | yes | 00:16 |

| modmadmike | Yay two routers now and one behind a Linux firewall! | 00:16 |

| FrankQC | I don't even know what firewall my router uses | 00:18 |
| FrankQC | xD | 00:18 |
| cllaudyu | i cant see what its crashing at startup | 00:18 |
| _duncan | SultansElephant: I did all of that, this is the last place to look | 00:18 |
| Magician | modmadmike**** | 00:18 |
| genii | boringpackets: You may already have a prototype one to start from in /usr/share/doc/apt/examples/sources.list | 00:18 |
| fogus | jeiworth: so, I could take a bunch of mounted truecrypt volumes and join them together logicaly and then share them? | 00:18 |
| mrwes | FrankQC, well you're not forwarding any ports from the router are you ? | 00:18 |
| jeiworth | allowoverride: hows the pinging coming along? | 00:19 |
| modmadmike | oh and the 1st router (which everything is behind) also ha a firewall | 00:19 |
| SultansElephant | _duncan: you asked about your specific problem on the forums at winehq.com, in #winehq and on the ubuntuforums? | 00:19 |

| jeiworth | fogus: well, youd first have to join them, that is their partitions and create one large lvm volume, after that you format it and encrypt it with whatever you like | 00:19 |
| allowoverride1 | i knew i would get disco'd lol... anyfoo, yep it pings. like i said, when i changed to wicd from netmanager this started | 00:20 |
| SultansElephant | _duncan: http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version&iId=14154 | 00:20 |
| allowoverride1 | im static | 00:20 |
| jeiworth | fogus: if you already have data thata you cant backup i fear its a bit more difficult, one solution might be to mount the partitions into the folder structure and share this main folder | 00:20 |
| allowoverride1 | diff ip, can ping printserver | 00:21 |
| allowoverride1 | hey cool i have a 1 after my nic lol | 00:21 |
| solexious | Help, ive just added a pci card with 4 sata ports on it, how other than plugging in sata devices can i check its been detected and has drivers? | 00:21 |
| FrankQC | Then I think you should change your static IP | 00:21 |
| allowoverride1 | hmmm | 00:21 |
| FrankQC | To something else | 00:21 |
| FrankQC | And see if it's going to work | 00:21 |
| allowoverride1 | interesting | 00:21 |
| boringpackets | would someone please pastebin their 9.04 sources.list for me? | 00:21 |
| allowoverride1 | good idea | 00:21 |
| jeiworth | allowoverride: sorry for not being up to date, but what is wicd? | 00:21 |
| boringpackets | uh, please? | 00:21 |
| FrankQC | Maybe that specific one is reserved for something else | 00:21 |
| genii | allowoverride: Looks like you didn't specify proper gateway then in your static settings | 00:21 |
| fogus | jeiworth: truecrypt encrypts entire disks and the result is a particular disk format (e.g. NTFS). I could not encrypt them after joining them (at least that is how I have understood it) | 00:21 |
| allowoverride1 | wireless client | 00:21 |
| jeiworth | solexious: lspci should do the trick | 00:21 |
| fogus | jeiworth: no, I will be starting with brand new disks | 00:22 |

| TeamColtra | Okay I tried asking a few days ago but got no response: I tried installing Ubuntu 9.04 on a laptop... and the screen resolution was display larger than the monitor (the display went off the screen) and when I tried to fix it by picking the proper resolution... it made the screen display like three copies of the display on top of eachother | 00:31 |
| pantang | cheers ill have a look now | 00:31 |
| ienorand | sebsebseb: Not on this lppy though, since I have no network access without disabling n-m on 8.10... | 00:31 |

| sebsebseb | jeiworth: sure, but newer is not always better, and that depends on the user, as well as the hardware that the software is running on | 00:31 |

| Kage[Work] | Is this channel the proper one to ask about doing packaging using apt? | 00:35 |
| Kage[Work] | If not, where should I go? | 00:35 |
| === smithzv_ is now known as smithzv | ||
| FrankQC | Kage: Is it packaging in Ubuntu? | 00:35 |
| Kage[Work] | yes | 00:35 |
| FrankQC | Kage: If it's related to ' | 00:35 |
| modmadmike | TeamColtra: try the native Linux intel driver from their site | 00:35 |
| FrankQC | If it's related to Ubuntu then you're in the right place. | 00:35 |
| Kage[Work] | Well, sort of. It's Debian's packaging system that Ubuntu uses | 00:35 |
| Kage[Work] | So, yes and no :P | 00:35 |
| ienorand | ubuntuquestion: If you use alt+F2 you'll get to the cli, X will still be running in the background though... If you want to kill it completely you could use "sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop" | 00:35 |
| FrankQC | lol | 00:35 |
| Kage[Work] | Ok, so here's the thing... | 00:35 |
| FrankQC | If you can't find anything on this channel | 00:36 |
| FrankQC | Try #debian | 00:36 |
| jeiworth | sebsebseb: at least switching to uxa downed the cpu% to about 20 (using desktop effects | 00:36 |
| TeamColtra | modmadmike: I can't though, because the screen wont let me... | 00:36 |
| Seeker` | Kage[Work]: It depends on whether you are asking about installing packages, or creating your own | 00:36 |
| Kage[Work] | Seeker`, creating one | 00:36 |
| TeamColtra | modmadmike: I can do it with command line... but I wouldn't know how to install a driver via commandline | 00:36 |
| Seeker` | I suspect #ubuntu-motu may be more relevant than here | 00:36 |
| Kage[Work] | I've got it nearly complete, I just can't freakin' figure out this one last step | 00:36 |
| smacfarl | so i just upgraded to 9.04 and my lcd screen goes to sleep when it loads the log in screen. Says unknown signal. | 00:36 |

| Kage[Work] | Seeker`, Ok, thanks | 00:37 |
| Seeker` | Kage[Work]: If that isn't the right place, they should be able to point you in the rgiht direction | 00:37 |
| modmadmike | TeamColtra: try to "w3m http://www.google.com/" | 00:37 |
| shavlir | smacfarl: sounds like you need to force it to use a mode that your monitor can handle | 00:37 |
| grkblood13 | hey, whats a good program to transcode in mp3 format to stream radio? | 00:37 |
| smacfarl | I'm guessing I have to manual override some setting because something is not being detected correctly or there is a bug in my monitor identification hardware in the lcd. What do i change | 00:37 |
| linxuz3r | how do i xdcmp to another system? | 00:37 |
| ubuntuquestion | No. I am not going to kill X. I just want to using CLI for some time; sometime I want to exit console and login again immediately. I just want X keep running but I don't want to leave the text console after logout because I am going to re-login again. | 00:37 |
| linxuz3r | !xdcmp | 00:37 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about xdcmp | 00:37 |
| linxuz3r | !xdmcp | 00:38 |
| ubottu | xdmcp is the X Display Manger Control Protocol -- look at http://tldp.org/HOWTO/XDMCP-HOWTO/ to find out how to configure it | 00:38 |
| grkblood13 | ive tried vlc but i get errors, they say its b/c ubuntu cripples ffmpeg but i built ffmpeg from source and it still wont work | 00:38 |

| FrankQC | smacfarl: hopefully it will work | 00:38 |
| smacfarl | reinstall gdm and ubuntu-desktop? How? Why? | 00:38 |
| FrankQC | MAybe there's something wrong w/ your gdm and ubuntu-desktop, who knows. | 00:38 |
| mibzzer15 | ubuntu is starting to piss me off with this GRUB error messages...... | 00:38 |

| FrankQC | That's how I troubleshoot my gUI problems. | 00:38 |
| FrankQC | /etc/X11/xorg.conf | 00:39 |
| grkblood13 | ... | 00:39 |

| FrankQC | Yes. | 00:39 |

| smacfarl | frankqc: what exactly will doing this do for me? What will be installed that I don't already have installed? | 00:41 |
| FrankQC | thomasite: That's why it's wise to keep a backup of your sources | 00:41 |
| TeamColtra | Is there a way to "print" what my system shows as its graphics card? | 00:41 |
| nunyabiz | excitatory, not my nick, but my identity | 00:41 |
| linxuz3r | do you guys know how to connect to a xdmcp server? | 00:41 |
| ienorand | ubuntuquestion: in that case ctrl+alt+F2 would work fine I think... You'll have to use Ctrl+Alt+F7 to get back to the TTY running X, you might want to log off in the X session so that it is at the login screen, for safety reasons, but it doesn't matter anyways... | 00:41 |
| linxuz3r | okease | 00:41 |

| modmadmike | TeamColtra: sudo apt-get install linux-kernel-server | 00:42 |
| glitsj16 | azazello: what about getting the version you need from packages.ubuntu.com? | 00:42 |
| === steven is now known as StevenX | ||
| jeiworth | faryshta_: apropos, is it available through launchpad ppa repos? | 00:42 |
| elisboa | linxuz3r: after X opens up the login screen | 00:42 |
| thomasite | FrankQC: Please help me. I know I should've saved those entries. | 00:42 |
| StevenX | Guys, if an external USB hdd was is being mounted as read-only, how can I change it to read / write? | 00:43 |
| TeamColtra | modmadmike: I will do that... but is there a way to see what my graphics card even is? So then there may be an easier fix? | 00:43 |
| wk_bouter | azazello, sometimes in synaptic "package -> force version" would work, but I see it does only list 2.1.0 for kile | 00:43 |
| StevenX | I tried to set this on properties, but after doing that, it wouldn't start up. | 00:43 |
| TeamColtra | I took my graphics card from a listing in ebay :P | 00:43 |
| ubuntuquestion | ienorand. Not exactly, I switch to text console pressing C+A+F1 and do some CLI commands. Then I try to logout but the console just automatically switch back to X session. I don't want this. I just want to stay at tty1. | 00:43 |
| tecky | TeamColtra, lspci ? | 00:43 |
| modmadmike | TeamColtra: lspci to find it | 00:43 |
| faryshta_ | jeiworth, I don't know, but the OOo site has deb-packages. | 00:43 |

| glitsj16 | azazello: should be easy enough to track it down, and use the force version idea wk_bouter mentioned to stop it from updating | 00:45 |
| linxuz3r | elisboa: does it usually take a long time to get connected? | 00:45 |
| faryshta_ | But someone have tried OpenOffice 3.1 already? | 00:45 |
| jeiworth | faryshta_: looks like its available: http://ppa.launchpad.net/openoffice-pkgs/ubuntu/pool/main/o/openoffice.org/ | 00:45 |
| elisboa | linxuz3r: its pretty fast, no more than 3 sec | 00:45 |
| linxuz3r | elisboa: server is @ my school | 00:46 |
| modmadmike | TeamColtra: oh and its "sudo apt-get install linux-image-server" not what i posted b4 | 00:46 |
| TeamColtra | modmadmike: is there a way to tell which one of those is my graphics card | 00:46 |
| ienorand | ubuntuquestion: Ah, right, I'm afraid I don't know how to do that... Since I guess it autumatically switches to any active tty, which in this case is the one with X running... | 00:46 |
| elisboa | linxuz3r: but you have to have your gdm configured to allow tcp connections | 00:46 |
| mibzzer15 | so now this is my problem, i followed the first thing to do in https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows , and it still has not helped, i still get a black screen saying Error 21 when i boot | 00:46 |
| glitsj16 | james296: i don't think that's configurable just yet | 00:46 |
| linxuz3r | elisboa how do i do that | 00:46 |
| james296 | dang! | 00:46 |
| TeamColtra | I try not to be a noob, but I am looking through everything, and none of hte things listed looks like a graphics card | 00:46 |
| elisboa | linxuz3r: edit /etc/gdm/gdm.conf | 00:46 |
| james296 | Im surprised, if it was at least made available, it should be configurable... | 00:47 |
| modmadmike | TeamColtra: look for one with the words intel and the words graphics or video | 00:47 |
| nunyabiz | can someone please help me | 00:47 |
| nunyabiz | can anyone please tell me how i can change my identity so that it doesn't say my name in it n=simonkaz@68.122.247.236 | 00:47 |

| TeamColtra | I will paste it to a pastebin and get on xchat on that system | 00:47 |
| modmadmike | TeamColtra: lspci | grep video | 00:47 |
| ienorand | ubuntuquestion: actually for me it does remain in tty1 after exit, but from tty2 it switches to tty7... | 00:48 |
| glitsj16 | james296: compiz might be able to catch it though, with the Place Windows or Windows Rules plugin | 00:48 |
| TeamColtra | modmadmike: "lspci | grep video" did not come back with anything | 00:49 |
| ienorand | ubuntuquestion: but then, I'm not on the same version, so things might be different. | 00:49 |

While in Windows I deleted the ubuntu partition and linux swap partion (I was going to reinstall). when I restarted I get a GRUB error 22. I can't boot into windows, or get to anything but the bios.

| SultansElephant | !patience | lookingaround | 01:06 |
| komputes | lookingaround: i think it may, but it will not be useful before loading ubuntu (meaning you will need a wired keyboard arount at boot) | 01:06 |

| tomsdale | Installed it at a friends place the other day and he got notifications popping up from some guy in the uk who was keen on seeing his desktop. | 01:06 |
| modmadmike | TeamColtra: try "sudo apt-get remove ubuntu-desktop" and "sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop" | 01:06 |
| lookingaround | was that so rude? it's only the truth. | 01:06 |
| lookingaround | and that's the first time someone actually noticed me. | 01:07 |
| sebsebseb | tensei: sounds like you deleted Ubuntu | 01:07 |
| sebsebseb | tensei: and that your left with what is left of the Grub boot loader, and so yeah you can't boot Windows | 01:07 |
| linxuz3r | elisboa: still there | 01:07 |
| rods | quick question. My FAT32 and FAT16 options in GParted are greyed out. Any ideas how I can get that fixed? | 01:07 |
| ubuntu_ | how long does it take gparted to resize a partition | 01:07 |
| panfist | tensei well when ubuntu was installed it overwrote the MBR and pointed to grub instead of the windows boot loader. you need to restore the MBR or rewrite it so that it points to C:/windows or whatever | 01:07 |
| ubuntu_ | I have been waiting a while | 01:07 |
| tensei | sebsebseb: I did, when I trashed the partitions... but grub is still alive and giving me an error. I can't do anything... | 01:07 |
| jrib | lookingaround: no one said it was rude, but common etiquette here is to ask a question and wait patiently (irrelevant comments just make it harder for people to actually help) | 01:08 |
| panfist | tensei or c:/ntldr or i dunno | 01:08 |
| sebsebseb | rods: why would you want to use FAT32 or FAT16? espeasilly now when Ext3 can be used on Windows even with a driver, and Desktop Linux has good read and write NTFS support | 01:08 |
| panfist | google "windows repair mbr" | 01:08 |
| modmadmike | ubuntu_: how big is the drive? | 01:08 |
| rods | ubuntu_ seems to take about a second per mb, at least when I do it on USB | 01:08 |
| sebsebseb | tensei: yes I know the problem | 01:08 |
| NetEcho | anyone here use moblock? | 01:08 |
| ienorand | ubuntu_: It can take quite a while, also depending on the speed of drive. | 01:08 |

| Terinjokes | i'm trying to install 9.04 in Qemu. but no matter what I do, I freeze after the Ubuntu boot logo | 01:08 |
| tensei | sebsebseb: so as panfist and I were thinking, use the ubuntu live cd.. but will it let me remove grub from there? | 01:09 |

| rods | tomsdale: I can use ntfs also (they run XP machines) | 01:12 |
| Laurenceb | there us no restore showing | 01:12 |
| jp_sf | NetEcho: ok this I don't know | 01:12 |
| usser | V0iD__, you need updated packages from jaunty. e2fsprogs at least 1.41 and new gparted | 01:12 |
| aldaek | Dayofswords: is that installing kubuntu-desktop ? | 01:12 |
| tomsdale | V0iD__: ext4 can be only read by gparted which comes with jaunty | 01:12 |

| glitsj16 | kappabuntu: an empty xorg.conf is regular these days, but you can still put your prefered conf settings in there if you need/want to | 01:16 |
| kpas | Is this channel the proper place to ask question regarding ubuntu and zenoss or is there another channel | 01:16 |
| tomsdale | damn it, if you read this, you have to reduce the blocksize of your ext3 partition, otherwise windows cant load it. | 01:16 |
| usser | V0iD__, just grab the latest versions from those two links i gave you | 01:16 |
| emorris | hi, anyone know what script/program is being run when you press the VolumeUp key? I don't mean just amixer or whatever, but the thing which shows the meter at the top? | 01:16 |
| modmadmike | Drikan: how do i use the pasted server? | 01:17 |
| NoneYa | server irc.efnet.net | 01:17 |

| Yanick_ | Hi, I installed Orange Box and Wine, and thw whole thing seems to work fine, but the game is laggy, which is weird because I have quite a decent computer :) my older computer plays Portal better than this one. Anyway. I've read that using DX8 improves performance, but I don't know how to procede. can anyone assist? | 01:17 |
| Drikan | modmadmike: there was no output so it didint go to the pastebin | 01:17 |
| usser | emorris, notifications-properties lets you adjust the behaviour | 01:17 |
| TeamColtra | modmadmike: ifconfig eth0 didn't really help me, it displayed the information | 01:17 |
| jp_sf | kpas: depends if it is a zenoss then you can go to the irc channel #zenoss | 01:17 |
| Drikan | drikan@drikan-desktop:~$ sudo lspci | grep acpi | 01:18 |
| Drikan | drikan@drikan-desktop:~$ | 01:18 |
| TeamColtra | but just showed that there was no activity | 01:18 |
| kpas | thanks | 01:18 |
| Pici | Yanick_: #winehq would be the proper channel to diagnose and fix issues running software under wine. | 01:18 |

| modmadmike | TeamColtra: yea so type sudo ifconfig eth0 [your ip address] | 01:19 |
| emorris | usser: hmm, what i'm trying to do is basically map a mouse button press to the volume adjustment, as well as the volume key | 01:19 |
| jp_sf | Terinjokes: have you asked in #qemu ? | 01:19 |
| bobo | hey guys, my nautilus is screwed up, everytime I type 'nautilus' into the terminal it starts konqueror | 01:20 |
| bobo | and it also means that I have no desktop | 01:20 |
| SoylentYellow | Vista actually got 5% of the vote so far. | 01:20 |
| bobo | which is wierd | 01:20 |
| SoylentYellow | Scary... | 01:20 |
| brucealdridge | I get a "EXT2-fs error (device sda1): ext2_get_inode: unable to read inode block" ..... it seems like a serious error, it seems to persist across reboots, (the system might last 2-5mins before erroring) | 01:20 |
| usser | emorris, libnotify only displays notifications, button mapping is probably done by hal. in any case its useful to look in system->preferences->shortcuts | 01:20 |
| Pici | OSUKid7: Take a look at the manpage of motd.tail | 01:20 |
| usser | emorris, it might be there | 01:20 |
| modmadmike | bobo: lol change you current dir then try again | 01:20 |
| bobo | change it to what? | 01:21 |
| Terinjokes | jp_sf: yes | 01:21 |
| modmadmike | bobo: cd /tmp | 01:21 |
| bobo | k | 01:21 |
| jp_sf | Terinjokes: what did they say ? Ask in #ubuntu ? | 01:21 |
| bobo | still starts konqueror | 01:21 |
| emorris | usser: yeah, it's there, but it only lets you assign one thing to it. i might try my other option of making the mouse button send the key command | 01:21 |
| Terinjokes | jp_sf: nothing | 01:21 |
| modmadmike | bobo: ok so its not a linker script in your home dir | 01:22 |
| tensei | ienorand: thanks again! | 01:22 |
| bobo | i got two files off this site and ran them the other day ( i think that's the source of the problem) http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/nonautilusplease | 01:22 |
| bobo | I ran the switch to konqueror script and default nautilus script | 01:22 |
| simotempler_ | if i have my fist HD split with a dual boot of ubuntu 7.10 and xp and a 2nd HD for media files and file storage can i keep this dual boot setup and install 9.04 along side the current xp using all the same existing paritions?? | 01:22 |
| Terinjokes | jp_sf: don't get me wrong, I normally use Gentoo, so I know my way around Linux... I've tried changing video cards, safe video mode, but nothing... can't even switch to a tty | 01:22 |
| simotempler_ | just replacing 7.10 with 9.04 effectively | 01:22 |
| simotempler_ | the live cd install partition manager doesnt seem to detect the partitions on the 1st HD | 01:22 |
| SpenceKid_ | any idea when flash and other shit will be fixed with ubuntu 9.04? | 01:23 |
| CalypsoLTS | Hello all | 01:23 |
| bobo | Flash works for me | 01:23 |
| Pici | SpenceKid_: Please mind your language here. | 01:23 |
| usser | SpenceKid_, whenever adobe pulls their stuff together | 01:23 |
| SpenceKid_ | i'm not sure if it is just me, but youtube has problems as well | 01:23 |
| SpenceKid_ | yeah, sorry Pici | 01:23 |
| jp_sf | Terinjokes: what are you trying to run ? | 01:23 |
| CalypsoLTS | Flash works for me as well | 01:23 |
| usser | SpenceKid_, what kind of problems? | 01:23 |
| Terinjokes | jp_sf: the LiveCD x86, trying to install Ubuntu, like any other person | 01:24 |

| jp_sf | Terinjokes: you OS is Linux ? | 01:24 |
| SpenceKid_ | at the begining of every video, it's grey and has black outlines of everythign for the first 3 seconds or so | 01:24 |
| simotempler_ | anyone? | 01:24 |
| jp_sf | Terinjokes: your OS is Linux ? and you want to install ubuntu ? | 01:24 |
| usser | SpenceKid_, which flash plugin are you using, flashplugin-nonfree? | 01:24 |
| jp_sf | Terinjokes: or your base OS is windows and you want to install ubuntu in Qemu | 01:24 |
| CalypsoLTS | I have noticed my Ubuntu 9.04 is running a bit sluggish, what can I do to help speed it up | 01:24 |
| CalypsoLTS | ? | 01:25 |
| modmadmike | bobo: one min | 01:25 |
| SpenceKid_ | i'm not quite sure, but i think that is the one | 01:25 |
| bobo | ok | 01:25 |
| Drikan | modmadmike: im assuming that it should be running off this 07:02.0 Mass storage controller: Integrated Technology Express, Inc. ITE 8211F Single Channel UDMA 133 (rev 11) | 01:25 |
| SultansElephant | CalypsoLTS: how much ram do you have | 01:25 |
| Terinjokes | jp_sf: OSX installing Ubuntu in Qemu (to a physical HDD) | 01:25 |
| usser | SpenceKid_, the issue you're describing really sounds like gnash | 01:25 |
| CalypsoLTS | 4 GB | 01:25 |
| dtolj | is there a Multimedia manager that allows for importing video files? | 01:25 |
| SultansElephant | newer machine? | 01:25 |
| bobo | Calypso: it could be because of compiz | 01:25 |
| CalypsoLTS | and I am running the 64bit version of Ubuntu 9.04 | 01:25 |
| Terinjokes | jp_sf: but that shouldn't matter to Ubuntu... | 01:25 |
| SpenceKid_ | gnash? | 01:25 |
| usser | SpenceKid_, can you pastebin the results of dpkg -l | grep flash | 01:25 |
| usser | SpenceKid_, opensource flash plugin, which at the moment is not very good | 01:25 |
| SpenceKid_ | here? or in a pm | 01:25 |
| dtolj | Banshee and Rhythmbox dont work with video | 01:26 |
| usser | !pastebin | SpenceKid_ | 01:26 |
| ubottu | SpenceKid_: 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) | 01:26 |
| simotempler_ | if i have a dual boot of xp and ubuntu can i replace 7.10 with 9.04 and keep my current xp | 01:26 |
| bobo | Sure you can | 01:26 |
| schnootop | nyone know of a program that will compare a local code base with a live servers code base through SSH ? (ive only ever seen coda (MAC) do it and its really nice) | 01:26 |
| bobo | I did that with vista | 01:26 |
| Terinjokes | simotempler_: can't you just update from the LiveCD (or from Update Manager?) | 01:26 |
| Drikan | Modmadmike: just a sec i had a thought i im thinking that its using cable select im going to try changing the jumper | 01:26 |
| bobo | cuz the upgrade only modifies your linux and all the stuff in it | 01:27 |
| simotempler_ | the live cd install partition manager doesnt seem to detect the partitions on the 1st HD | 01:27 |
| jp_sf | Terinjokes: you could go to applications > Utilities > Console to check any error message if Qemu freeze | 01:27 |
| modmadmike | Drikan: thats a widely used chip, its prob CableSel or you drive | 01:27 |
| SpenceKid_ | http://pastebin.com/m3c50f9b8 | 01:27 |
| CalypsoLTS | is compiz a package that I can remove, and what does compiz do? | 01:27 |
| bobo | Then just upgrade from update manager thing | 01:27 |
| ZeZu | simotempler_, sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade | 01:27 |
| usser | schnootop, you're probably need some sort of a version control system for that, like svn or cvs | 01:27 |
| bobo | Its the eye candy stuff like the cube effect | 01:27 |
| Terinjokes | jp_sf: Qemu isn't freezing... just the Ubuntu install is | 01:27 |
| simotempler_ | cant from 7.10 to 9.04 | 01:27 |
| SpenceKid_ | usser, http://pastebin.com/m3c50f9b8 | 01:27 |
| ZeZu | no? | 01:27 |
| kpas | h | 01:27 |
| bobo | Ohh. Didn't know that | 01:27 |
| Maximo | nick Nasra | 01:27 |
| bobo | Well I | 01:27 |
| bobo | Well I'm not an expert, so idk | 01:28 |
| === devananda_ is now known as devananda | ||
| jp_sf | Terinjokes: yes but you don't have a message or something that could give us a hint like a console message ... | 01:28 |
| usser | schnootop, i see that coda is nothing more than an editor with plugins, among which is svn and cvs, any decent linux ide can do that | 01:28 |
| SpenceKid_ | usser, ? | 01:29 |
| usser | schnootop, eclipse with subclipse plugin for example or just plain svn+ssh client | 01:29 |
| Terinjokes | jp_sf: not seeing anything in the Console... checked the log heirarchy too, nothing from Qemu | 01:29 |
| Terinjokes | jp_sf: as far as I can tell, Qemu is just running fine, waiting the the Ubuntu process to do something | 01:30 |
| usser | SpenceKid_, hang on | 01:30 |
| schnootop | usser, im not talking about comparing it with a repository (it compares it to files on a file system based on whats in your ide project) | 01:30 |
| SpenceKid_ | usser, alright | 01:30 |
| usser | schnootop, you mean like diff? | 01:31 |
| jp_sf | Terinjokes: so you are able to create an image ? | 01:31 |
| Terinjokes | jp_sf: i stand corrected: "5/6/09 7:48:07 PM qemu-control[776] Index overflow: out of bounds (0)" | 01:31 |
| usser | SpenceKid_, dpkg -l | grep gnash | 01:31 |
| schnootop | kind of but it must do it through SSH | 01:31 |
| simotempler_ | why does the 9.04 live cd install partition manager not detect that i have a dual boot | 01:31 |
| Terinjokes | jp_sf: I can boot the iso image, and select my language, then scroll down to "Install | 01:31 |
| simotempler_ | of 7.10 and xp | 01:31 |
| SpenceKid_ | usser, doesn't do anything. | 01:32 |
| Terinjokes | jp_sf: " watch the pretty boot loader, and then freeze. | 01:32 |
| usser | schnootop, i've never done that but eclipse or netbeans might do that | 01:32 |

| Magician | frijolie i have had to many issues with brasero so i use gnomebaker and it works great | 01:39 |
| Dr_Willis | racecar56: all drices use the scsi type subsstem now | 01:39 |

| sebsebseb | NetEcho: no | 01:40 |
| Terinjokes | jp_sf: heh... I'm going to reboot, and while that happens, try my disc in an actual computer | 01:40 |
| sebsebseb | !vnc | NetEcho | 01:40 |
| ubottu | NetEcho: VNC is a protocol for remote desktop. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VNCOverSSH describes how to use it securely. It works best over fast connections, otherwise look at !FreeNX | 01:40 |
| racecar56 | Dr_Willis, that and gparted live says that it is ide (/dev/hda instead of ubuntu's /dev/sda) | 01:40 |
| jp_sf | Terinjokes: yes maybe your disc is bad | 01:40 |

| rand0mbits | is there anything i can use on ubunutu like PeerGuardian? | 01:44 |
| TimReichhart | ok jp I got that installed how now can I get the email to send | 01:44 |
| Ghost9863 | hello | 01:44 |
| pantang | dont suppose you've got any ideas on this problem? and where is firefox actually located? | 01:44 |
| usser | panfist, it probably cached it | 01:44 |
| Ghost9863 | nice to see someone here | 01:44 |
| usser | panfist, asks it here for me | 01:45 |

| ubottu | TimReichhart: You can use <tab> for autocompletion of nicknames in IRC, as well as for completion of filenames and programs on the command line. | 01:45 |
| mrwes | rand0mbits, I prefer IPblock | 01:45 |
| Magician | skotie30: can you connect at all | 01:45 |
| rand0mbits | mrwes: do they have their own block lists or connect to the PG list? | 01:45 |
| skotie30 | yes I can | 01:45 |
| panfist | does it make your system any safer if the root password is different than the user password? | 01:45 |
| Magician | noobness happens we all satrted somewhere | 01:45 |
| usser | panaggio, if enter it first time and close ssh connection, reconnect and do sudo su again it doesnt ask, sudo caches passwords for like 5 minutes | 01:45 |
| jp_sf | TimReichhart: otherwise I might not see your reply | 01:45 |
| mrwes | rand0mbits, then can download the PG lists, and others | 01:45 |

| lstarnes | !root | Guest59054 | 01:50 |
| ubottu | Guest59054: 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 | 01:50 |
| montel_edwards | sudo passwd | 01:50 |
| montel_edwards | will generate root password | 01:51 |

| gordonjcp | !sudo | Guest59054 | 01:51 |
| ubottu | Guest59054: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more information. For graphical applications see !gksu (Gnome, XFCE), or !kdesudo (KDE) | 01:51 |

| ubottu | aoirthoir: To re-enable the Ctrl+Alt+Backspace combination that restarts your X server, you can install the "dontzap" package and use the command « sudo dontzap --disable ». The combination Alt+SysRq+K can also be used to obtain a similar effect. | 02:20 |

| doomsword | first unix user here :D | 02:56 |

| NetEcho | usser has the free driver been fixed so I can run things like compiz? | 02:57 |

| ubottu | Ubuntu releases a new version every 6 months. Each version is supported for 18 months to 5 years. More info at http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/releases & http://wiki.ubuntu.com/TimeBasedReleases | 02:58 |
| NetEcho | usser doesn't make sense that they'd remove the 1400 when its so similar to the 1300 | 02:58 |
| yuri_ | hi guys, i have a video_ts folder i would like to play with totem but it gives me errors. the only way i got it to work so far is to add the .vob files manually. ideas? | 02:58 |

| komputes | usser: no longer purchase those products after 2 ati cards stopped getting 3d support | 02:58 |
| NetEcho | usser its been moved to a legacy driver | 02:59 |
| jfrye | whats up peoples | 02:59 |
| usser | NetEcho, yes but its version 9.3 which unfortunately doesnt work in jaunty, 9.4 is the latest one that works | 02:59 |
| PlasmaSheep | Jeruvy: I don't believe those are the release notes. | 02:59 |
| usser | komputes, i gave up on ati a long time ago | 02:59 |

| yuri_ | brucealdridge: its for my mom, i dont want to teach her how to use a second player. i use vlc for that as well | 03:00 |
| usser | NetEcho, free driver got better in my experience. still most 3d support is missing, no games etc but compiz works | 03:00 |
| komputes | kilo: depends what you want to do, it's not easy, but there are many guides - I would recommend finding a recommended one | 03:00 |
| usser | komputes, hehe | 03:00 |
| NetEcho | so howcome jaunty can't support the legacy driver? | 03:01 |
| kilo | i have the netkey wep/wpa key but its not the psk | 03:01 |
| TheRy1985 | Was wondering if someone could help me with a graphics driver issue im having? I have a thread posted here that explains,,, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1151267 | 03:01 |
| doomsword | does it make any difference in performance updating kernel from 2.6.28 --> 2.6.30 ? | 03:01 |
| komputes | NetEcho: just a guess but the Xorg version has changed and with it the drivers have to be compatible | 03:01 |
| jimlovell777_ | kilo: the first step is finding if your card is supported and if not get a supported card otherwise any tool along the lines of aircrack does you no good. | 03:02 |
| NetEcho | komputes so the next legacy driver might fix it? | 03:02 |
| komputes | NetEcho: they are not, so they are dropped | 03:02 |
| NetEcho | gah | 03:02 |
| NetEcho | stupid ati | 03:02 |
| m3onh0x | I can not go to ubuntuguide.org, so another site connect normail | 03:02 |

| admin_masu3701 | -Xms40m | 03:18 |
| admin_masu3701 | -Xmx256m | 03:18 |
| panfist | derek don't listen to whoever says 4gb is more than the os can handle | 03:18 |
| derek_ | also my computer lags during screensaver after i reinstalled 9.04? | 03:18 |
| PartialSum | unko, yep, you're pretty much stuck with OSS drivers, not much you can do | 03:18 |
| gm|lap | Jeruvy: with PAE you can access up to 64GB | 03:18 |
| gm|lap | in 32-bit mode | 03:18 |
| james296 | has anyone here used the cooliris add on in firefox yet? | 03:18 |
| eseven73 | I never needed more than 1 gig ram till today when I loaded 1000 brushes in GIMP , took 27% of my /swap too hehe. | 03:18 |
| derek_ | how do I get PAE | 03:18 |
| Cypher67 | racecar56- i dont agree my system is 4gb and ubuntu reads 3.9g | 03:18 |
| unko | PartialSum, why do the fglrx driver work better? | 03:18 |
| Jeruvy | gm|lap: I'm aware, but many do not use PAE :) | 03:18 |
| james296 | I seem to be having issues with the way fonts are being shown | 03:18 |
| yuri_ | i would liek to burn a video_ts folder to an iso from command line. suggestions? | 03:18 |
| PlasmaSheep | Jeruvy, eseven73: flashplugin-nonfree is the 'evil' one, right? | 03:18 |
| gm|lap | good point. | 03:18 |
| derek_ | How do I use PAE? | 03:18 |
| yuri_ | i mean convert, not burn | 03:18 |
| Jeruvy | PlasmaSheep: I would get flash from the source adobe. | 03:19 |
| usr_masse | Is there a command for the terminal to search for installed packages | 03:19 |
| zanberdo | been using intrepid now since it was released. am trying to read an audio cd which I was able to read only last week, but now it seems the system won't recognize the drive. dmesg reports:ppdev0: registered pardevice followed by ppdev0: unregistered pardevice. no help searching google. Anyone seen this?!? | 03:19 |
| PartialSum | unko, well yea. theoretically | 03:19 |
| PlasmaSheep | Jeruvy: there's an adobe-flashplugin, I'll try that. | 03:19 |
| ddsweet47 | I am having a problem with my display can anyone help me? | 03:19 |
| gm|lap | derek_: i think it involves sysctl | 03:19 |
| derek_ | Does anyone know how I can use PAE? | 03:19 |
| PartialSum | yuri_, mkisofs | 03:19 |
| Jeruvy | PlasmaSheep: if your using x64 don't use the normal version get the x64 version | 03:19 |
| derek_ | ok gmlap | 03:19 |
| unko | PartialSum, hmm ill try to install them again and see what happens.. what am i looking for like whats the package called? | 03:20 |
| yuri_ | PartialSum: thanks! | 03:20 |
| ienorand | unko: ati dedicates effort to it, and don't care about the oss driver basically. | 03:20 |
| PlasmaSheep | Jeruvy: using 32 bit, but thanks anyway. | 03:20 |
| PartialSum | unko, it wont work, ati dropped support for your card http://support.amd.com/us/gpudownload/linux/legacy/Pages/radeon_linux.aspx?type=2.4.2&product=2.4.2.3.9&lang=English | 03:20 |
| unko | ienorand, yea, i mean ati is a good chip just they are lazy | 03:20 |
| panfist | i'm not even getting that my key was rejected anymore...it just says no supported authentication | 03:20 |
| gm|lap | derek_: actually... i think hugepages is just PSE... i think you need to compile your kernel correctly | 03:20 |
| unko | PartialSum, that sucks... wow... i used to be able to play nexuiz @ 45 fps + now i play at 10 | 03:21 |
| ienorand | unko: well, nvidia is just as bad really, but they at least don't drop support like that, I think | 03:21 |
| gm|lap | ienorand: they drop support but at least they keep a driver which supports it | 03:21 |
| unko | ienorand, yeah... i heard nvidia was kinda hard to get working right on ubuntu... | 03:21 |
| gm|lap | it's pretty easy from my experience | 03:22 |
| derek_ | how do I compile my kernel correctly? | 03:22 |
| derek_ | I am kind of new | 03:22 |
| DrBanzai | Greetings! Just completed my upgrade from 8.04 to 9.04, and I'm having trouble. Everything is sluggish, windows are greying (as in, they are "thinking") and I still can't set my monitor to it's native resolution...64bit Ubuntu, Nvidia GeForce 7300 GS 512MB and a new HP 2009m LCD monitor | 03:22 |
| ienorand | unko: actually, nvidia seems easier in most cases, however, afaik, they give absolutely nothing to the oss side of the drivers... | 03:23 |
| Cypher67 | im using one partition with ubuntu on ext4 fs and three other distros with ext3 fs. is there any way to mount ubuntu in the ext3 distros? | 03:23 |
| ricardo1 | i am going to install ubuntu 9 04 how good is ext 4? | 03:23 |
| === danopia` is now known as danopia | ||
| PartialSum | unko, you can try getting radeonhd driver going but its a long shot, its supposed to have 3d | 03:24 |
| Cypher67 | DrBanzai- reinstall | 03:24 |
| PartialSum | ricardo1, its alright | 03:24 |
| unko | ienorand, hmm so im better off getting a ati card? cuz im planning on getting a hd 3650 | 03:24 |
| DrBanzai | Cypher67: Awwww, man.... | 03:24 |
| ricardo1 | PartialSum better than ext3? | 03:24 |
| ienorand | ricardo1: fast and possibly unstable | 03:24 |
| unko | PartialSum, and how could i do this? just install a package? or do i have to compile, configure, troubleshoot... | 03:24 |
| panfist | ok i'm back to getting "server refused key" trying to get pubkey authetnication to work. can i check any logs on the server to learn why i'm being refused? | 03:25 |
| ricardo1 | ienorand thankz for the advice | 03:25 |
| PartialSum | PartialSum, its faster thats for sure, but i wouldnt put it on my server | 03:25 |
| Iradieh | If I got two partitions one / and one /home and I write tar cvpzf /home/seivan/sGate/backup.tgz --exclude=/proc --exclude=/lost+found --exclude=/backup.tgz --exclude=/mnt --exclude=/media --exclude=/home/seivan/sGate/backup.tgz --exclude=/sys / will that do a backup on both or just / | 03:25 |
| PartialSum | unko, install a package configure troubleshoot | 03:25 |
| DrBanzai | And now my Tracker applet is throwing errors too...not even sure what the tracker applet does... | 03:25 |
| unko | PartialSum, ehh... is it worth the time though? | 03:25 |
| PartialSum | unko, radeonhd is in the repos but there's still some manual configuration involved | 03:25 |
| ddsweet47 | I new to this how do i get help? | 03:25 |
| boringpackets | I somehow removed the wireless icon in my taskbar, how do I get it back? | 03:25 |
| PartialSum | unko, i tried it, frankly it sucked for me. | 03:25 |
| voodoo_child | lol | 03:25 |
| boringpackets | ddsweet47 just ask a question | 03:26 |
| boringpackets | !ask | 03:26 |
| ubottu | Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line, so others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) | 03:26 |
| unko | PartialSum, really? dam... looks like i'll neer get any performance outta my x1400.. GRR | 03:26 |
| Iradieh | boringpackets: if I got two partitions one / and other /home and I do a tar / (excluding stuff like /proc and etc) will it restore/backup /home as well? | 03:26 |
| Cypher67 | im using one partition with ubuntu on ext4 fs and three other distros with ext3 fs. is there any way to mount ubuntu in the ext3 distros? | 03:27 |
| ienorand | unko: Atm, if you are not that concerned with using proprietary stuff, I'd say go for an nvidia card... ati opensource drivers will probably be far better than the nv counterpart (and then you might as well go for intel, and get bettter performance once it gets patched in jaunty and +), but as far as the proprietary side goes, from what I've seen, nvidia isIt | 03:27 |
| ddsweet47 | thank you im having a problem with my display. the highest resolution is 800 x 600 and im getting random boxes on the screen | 03:27 |
| boringpackets | iradieh take my answers as a grain of salt but, since /home is a subdirectory of / it should restore /home too | 03:27 |
| PartialSum | unko, never say never its improving rapidly not without ati support, they provided all specs and documentation, unlike nvidia | 03:27 |
| Iradieh | boringpackets: yeah well thats what I thought but I got my doubs, do you happen to know how to READ a .tar file so I can see if my /home is in there? | 03:28 |
| thiebaude | boringpackets: right click taskbar add network monitor | 03:28 |
| boringpackets | iradieh when I double click on tar files it automatically opens in archive manager | 03:28 |
| Iradieh | boringpackets: no GUI | 03:28 |
| Iradieh | it's a server | 03:28 |
| unko | ienorand, hmm.. but ati is sooo much cheaper... and plus the laptop im getting only comes with the ati card there is no nvidia card version... unless i can buy a nvidia card for it and pop it in | 03:28 |
| boringpackets | thiebaude all i have in add to panel is "modem monitor" | 03:29 |
| wall-e_ | quick question | 03:29 |
| ienorand | unko: not likely to be able to swap card... | 03:30 |
| wall-e_ | if im tri booting os do i need to install grub with all the new os? | 03:30 |
| ienorand | unko: You could always trudge along on Ibex | 03:30 |
| boringpackets | iradieh have you tried zcat? | 03:30 |
| unko | PartialSum, i hope so.. i really love ubuntu... WAY more than windows... but it just has alot of bugs that need to be fix.. and things that need to be improved... but who cares i guess... we're catching up to microsoft in half the time... i mean think about it they have been developing there OS for jeez... who knows... 15 years and we did it in half the time | 03:30 |
| PartialSum | unko, well linux was around since 1992 :) | 03:31 |
| boringpackets | zcat -l /foo/foo.tar | 03:31 |
| ienorand | unko: Depends on whether you count Unix as well :P | 03:31 |
| wall-e_ | im trying adifferent linux os andnot sure if i need to do so with grub | 03:31 |
| Dr_Willis | wall-e_: you will want to pick one of the os's to handle grub most likely and edit the menu.lst by hand to allow the booting of them all | 03:31 |
| Severian | unko, I'd say Ubuntu is far ahead of Windows. They both have rough spots, but I find the Linux ones easier to live with. | 03:31 |
| unko | PartialSum, true | 03:31 |
| Cypher67 | 1993 i guess | 03:31 |

| NetEcho | adrigen thanks , PartialSum thanks as well | 03:34 |
| Severian | ddsweet47, What kind of monitor and video card do you have? | 03:34 |
| NetEcho | h00k thanks | 03:34 |
| adrigen | ubuntu plays system sounds at random. does anyone know why it might be doing this? | 03:34 |
| adrigen | seems to be eating resources too | 03:34 |
| ddsweet47 | it was in the machine i dont know. it happen when i ran a flight simulator. | 03:35 |
| ienorand | unko: you won't be able to get nvidia on that one. | 03:35 |
| === naz is now known as nazty1 | ||
| Severian | ddsweet47, If it happened while running a program, then reboot. | 03:36 |
| unko | ienorand, hmm.. thats too bad | 03:36 |
| PartialSum | unko, oh come on dont buy sony. | 03:36 |
| _Brun0_ | Ubunut upgrade from 8.10 to 9 froze! Now I can't login naymore. I type user and pass and it just do nothing more. It doesn't freeze PC but nothing happens! How can I fix this? Try upgrading again? | 03:36 |
| unko | PartialSum, why not? that laptop is AWSOME | 03:36 |
| ienorand | unko: Check how new the ati card is, and possibly contact ati and see if they can give you any pointers on how long it might be supported for... | 03:36 |
| PartialSum | unko, its overpriced | 03:36 |
| unko | PartialSum, im not looking for pure performace.. im looking for thin, and style | 03:36 |
| Dayofswords | anyone know how to add more desks on gnome? | 03:37 |
| unko | PartialSum, not really.. well im getting another version that is only 800 | 03:37 |
| dft | is there a way to reload modprobe.d/options without rebooting? | 03:37 |
| unko | PartialSum, wait that is the 800 one | 03:37 |
| PartialSum | unko, still too much :) | 03:38 |
| ddsweet47 | when i ran the program i got over lapping on the screen and i had to reboot | 03:38 |
| Severian | Dayofswords, right click in that area and choose preferences. | 03:38 |
| IndyGunFreak | Dayofswords: what do you mean more desks | 03:38 |
| unko | PartialSum, ok you find me a stylish, but packs performance. laptop on newegg.. lets see if you can do it! :P | 03:38 |
| adrianobento1962 | hi | 03:38 |
| Dayofswords | at the bottom right there are two desktops, i think theres a way to make more, idk how | 03:39 |
| Severian | Dayofswords, I just told you how. | 03:39 |
| Cypher67 | _Brun0 - if i was you i would reinstall | 03:39 |
| IndyGunFreak | Dayofswords: yeah, right click those two windows, pref, and adjust accordingly.. someonme told you that | 03:39 |
| adrianobento1962 | hi gordon | 03:40 |
| IndyGunFreak | _Brun0_: this is one reason upgrades suck. | 03:40 |
| IndyGunFreak | hope you had a backup | 03:40 |
| derek_ | is i486 64 bit or 32 bit? | 03:40 |
| derek_ | I am downloading ubuntu 64bit | 03:40 |
| IndyGunFreak | 586?.. 32bit. | 03:40 |
| [1]panfist | no matter what i try to do, when SSHing into my ubuntu machine with PubkeyAuthentication, it tells me that my key was refused, but it never even asks me for my key's passphrase...what gives? | 03:40 |
| |dthacker| | derek_: 32bit | 03:40 |
| unko | PartialSum, 0.o you there haha | 03:40 |
| IndyGunFreak | derek_: i386 is 32bit... 64bit.. is 64bit | 03:41 |
| derek_ | ok | 03:41 |
| IndyGunFreak | some distros will call it i586 | 03:41 |
| derek_ | at least i found my problem | 03:41 |
| IndyGunFreak | i586 = 32bit. | 03:41 |
| nimrod | hi | 03:41 |
| derek_ | can i upgrade to 64 bit or do I have to do a clean install? | 03:41 |
| PartialSum | unko, hehe, looking for a laptop | 03:41 |
| lmoozzy81 | hey | 03:41 |
| IndyGunFreak | derek_: if you currently have 32bit, you'll have to clean install | 03:41 |
| unko | PartialSum, ok :] is it on newegg i only buy from them | 03:41 |
| Cypher67 | clean install | 03:41 |
| derek_ | it's just inconvenient, I don't have any real documents that aren't backed up | 03:41 |
| derek_ | I am excited to use all of my RAM! | 03:42 |
| derek_ | and sick of the lag | 03:42 |
| IndyGunFreak | derek_: eh, clean installs are faster than upgrades anyways, at least in my experieence | 03:42 |
| derek_ | My computer lags through screensavers | 03:42 |
| derek_ | annoying | 03:42 |
| Cypher67 | derek_- what kinda lag are you having? | 03:42 |
| anom01y | wow | 03:42 |
| derek_ | it's just not as fast as it used to be | 03:42 |
| ienorand | Dayofswords: are you using compiz | 03:42 |
| derek_ | during the screensavers | 03:42 |
| anom01y | is there any NVIDIA cards that work for ubuntu/Linux except 6 year old 128 mb cards ??? | 03:43 |
| derek_ | it's not really lag, but more like sluggish | 03:43 |
| lmoozzy81 | how do you find another room | 03:43 |
| Dayofswords | idk what that is, so i dont think so | 03:43 |
| Cypher67 | its impossible to lag of more than 2gb | 03:43 |
| Severian | anom01y, Yes, I have some older 32 meg cards that work well. So, you don't need to get all fancy. | 03:43 |
| nimrod | what is wrong with rhrythmbox? it plays my songs with weird kind of noise | 03:43 |
| derek_ | here's my computer, it should be able to run a screensaver http://www.bestbuy.com/site/olspage.jsp?skuId=9172511&type=product&id=1218043606827 | 03:43 |
| anom01y | so far the kde hardware detection program (kde-jockey) is unsuccessful in setting up a nvidia 6200 geforce, and a nvidia 8800 gt | 03:44 |
| xxploit | anom01y, i use an 8800 gts | 03:44 |
| mattgyver | Should the samba daemon begin at login by default? | 03:44 |
| anom01y | xxploit how did you get that one to work ? | 03:44 |
| DrBanzai | anom01y: I'm using a GeForce 7300 GS | 03:44 |
| Severian | mattgyver, No | 03:44 |
| derek_ | i have 9800m gts | 03:44 |
| mattgyver | Severian, how may i force it to start on login? | 03:44 |
| Dr_Willis | anom01y: jockey-gtk set up my 8800gtsxxx fine. | 03:44 |
| nimrod | i use 8800gtx, and it works just fine | 03:44 |
| Cypher67 | anom0ly- i have the same cards ofcyou and the jockey did well | 03:44 |
| xxploit | anom01y, i use jockey-gtk(gnome version) when installing it does report a crash but corrects itself and all is well. | 03:45 |
| anom01y | weird, every time I use it it puts my resultion to a 640x480 max | 03:45 |
| derek_ | that's the best res | 03:45 |
| anom01y | that also goes for this computer, using a 6200 geforce | 03:45 |
| lmoozzy81 | join/music | 03:45 |
| Cypher67 | anom0ly- i have the same cards ofcyou and the jockey did well | 03:45 |
| Severian | mattgyver, it starts when your machine boots up, if you install it. The packacge is called samba and is not installed by default. | 03:45 |
| nimrod | where can i change to alsa or oss on rhythmbox? | 03:45 |
| ienorand | anom01y: might want to install manually using the nvidia-glx-*** packages | 03:46 |
| anom01y | well two completely different computers with two diff. nvidia cards that I have are doing the exact same thing | 03:46 |
| boringpackets | Anyone know how I can get back that wireless icon in the corner? I accidentally removed it | 03:46 |
| lmoozzy81 | my cousin told me how to change chat rooms but i forget | 03:46 |
| Dr_Willis | boringpackets: i think you run the nm-applet | 03:46 |
| Cypher67 | anom0ly- are you choosing the right driver? try to chasnge the driver or instal the glx new drivers kernel from synaptic | 03:46 |
| Severian | anom01y, It sometimes depends on your monitor. It X does not detect that your monitor is capable of higher resolutions, it plays it safe. | 03:46 |
| ddsweet47 | when i ran the program i got over lapping on the screen and i had to reboot | 03:46 |
| anom01y | ienorand, I tried installing the drivers from nvidia.com, but that just made the screen go blank after I followed the instructions forcing me to reinstall kubuntu | 03:46 |
| boringpackets | nm-applet wont start because it's already running | 03:46 |
| boringpackets | networkamangerusersettings service is already taken | 03:47 |
| mattgyver | Severian, I have the pkg installed. My laptop is not detected on the network until i restart the samba daemon, it gives this error: 'start-stop-daemon: warning: failed to kill 2261: no such process.' Then the service begins correctly | 03:47 |
| derek_ | right click up there and select add panel | 03:47 |
| derek_ | then just add it | 03:47 |
| derek_ | @boring packets | 03:47 |
| Cypher67 | anom0ly- try synaptic or apt-get | 03:47 |
| anom01y | well, for this computer, it was working well with a 5700, I simply changed the card to a 6200, and everything worked for about 2 days, until 5 mins ago | 03:47 |
| gymophett | age | 03:47 |
| gymophett | lala. | 03:47 |
| boringpackets | derek_ it doesn't exist in add to panel, all i have is modem manager | 03:47 |
| anom01y | the screen flickered several times and X crashed leaving me at the command | 03:47 |

| chinosuke | Thanks for your help | 03:58 |
| h00k | chinosuke: no, run fc-cache from the terminal | 03:59 |
| Dr_Willis | NetEcho: you can spawn a vnc-session/dektop that is not seen locally on the laptop. then the lcd can power down.. but that wont be a 'shared' desktop you will actually have 2 desktops going. | 03:59 |
| PartialSum | NetEcho, ssh to it, start the vnc server connect | 03:59 |

| Mushuukyou | Question: My computer is currently partitioned with 40gigs on C:, and the rest (200 gigs) on D:. How much drive space should I allocate towards Ubuntu, if I will be using VMware to run Windows to play games? Is 40 gigs good enough on that one partition, or should I format the whole thing and redo the partitions to allow more for Ubuntu? | 04:00 |
| Dr_Willis | NetEcho: vnc can do much more then 'share the currently seen desktop' | 04:00 |
| PartialSum | Mushuukyou, vmware is not a good choice for gaming | 04:00 |
| lsadfl | virtualbox is better | 04:00 |
| Dr_Willis | NetEcho: you could have a dozen people all 'vncing' into a box each with their own desktop | 04:00 |
| nimrod | what shall i do with rhythmbox to make it play mp3's normaly? | 04:00 |
| Mushuukyou | Partial, I was told to get "wget -q http://download.virtualbox.org/virtualbox/debian/sun_vbox.asc -O- | sudo apt-key add -" | 04:00 |
| NetEcho | Dr_Willis how do I set it up to do that? | 04:01 |
| dsabecky | Mushuukyou: Seeing as most games use 3d rendering and virtual machines don't, that isn't going to work. | 04:01 |

| spanther | PartialSum, what is working then? ^^ | 04:02 |
| Mushuukyou | Partial, You don't think Virtualbox will run Darkfall Online, for instance? | 04:02 |
| dsabecky | You're best off using WINE or dual boot. | 04:02 |
| tj83 | !realtek > tj83 | 04:02 |

| anom01y | I am pretty dissapointed in nvidia lately, my friend can't even get his 8800 gt nvidia to work | 04:26 |
| spanther | anom01y, you need legacy driver for old cards | 04:26 |
| Jeruvy | Drikan: all I'm seeing is windows partitions... | 04:26 |
| anom01y | spanther, where do I get the legacy driver ? | 04:26 |
| spanther | v173 | 04:26 |
| spanther | um :/ | 04:27 |
| voss | anom, My 9800 gt iw working fine in 9.04 so that an 8800 doesnt work is kinda weird | 04:27 |
| spanther | i never needed it so i dont know anom01y i have an 8800gt and it works with v180 so latest | 04:27 |

| anom01y | andry, does jockey-gtk install legacy drivers ? | 04:30 |
| Drikan | jeruvy: the install i downloaded it and burnt it. its not just dvd's its cd's as well any disk i place in the drive locks my system after about a min | 04:30 |
| anom01y | er andry sorry meant to say "and" | 04:30 |
| baughtman | dsabecky, i spoke too soon lol, still broke :( | 04:30 |
| thiebaude | anom01y: legacy is an older driver, proprietary driver is a non-free driver i dont know about binary | 04:31 |
| anom01y | h00k, does jockey-gtk install the legacy drivers for nvidia ? | 04:31 |
| h00k | anom01y: legacy drivers are older, binary/proprietary drivers are provided and maintained by the manufacturer (ATI/NVIDIA) and bugs must be fixed through those companies | 04:31 |
| anom01y | how do I get old drivers ? | 04:31 |
| anom01y | ok | 04:31 |
| thiebaude | proprietary=closed source | 04:32 |
| anom01y | so the 6200 requires the legacy drivers apparently (according to spanther) | 04:32 |
| h00k | anom01y: which version are you on? | 04:32 |
| Jeruvy | Drikan: your issue sounds like it may be unrelated to the burner...check out the bugs re: 'lock up one minute'. Ask ubottu about !bugs if you need a pointer to the bug tracker. | 04:32 |
| anom01y | how do I check ? | 04:32 |

| Level15 | h00k: does anyone know if includes have changed in the version of gcc/g++ of 9.04? | 04:49 |
| c0l2e | ienorand: my openoffice always set to A4 I want to change it to letter... already change the /etc/papersize but still after reboot always on A4 | 04:49 |
| ienorand | c0l2e: pagefile is virtual memory, right?, on GNU/Linux that is normally handled by a separate dedicated partition. | 04:49 |
| c0l2e | ienorand: paper size not pagefile | 04:50 |
| ienorand | c0l2e: ah, misunderstood | 04:50 |
| h00k | Level15: not quite sure, | 04:50 |
| c0l2e | ienorand: it's ok | 04:50 |
| Jeruvy | c0l2e: I recall a bug report about that. Did you take a peek? | 04:50 |
| IndyGunFreak | PLyTheMan: that depends i guess.. typically a bootable disk, is to do a clean install. | 04:50 |
| IndyGunFreak | PLyTheMan: but if you used an alternate install ISO on the thumb drive, you can use the alternate install CD to upgrade an existing install | 04:50 |
| IndyGunFreak | !upgrade | PLyTheMan | 04:51 |
| ubottu | PLyTheMan: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes - see also http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/upgrading | 04:51 |
| PLyTheMan | IndyGunFreak: I mounted the .iso to a virtual drive but it "couldn't find autorun program" | 04:51 |
| PLyTheMan | I've tried those, no good | 04:51 |
| IndyGunFreak | PLyTheMan: then you've not read it.. | 04:51 |
| PLyTheMan | when I Alt-F2 and enter: gksu "sh /cdrom/cdromupgrade" | 04:51 |
| PLyTheMan | nothing happens | 04:51 |
| Lyez | need advice. linux/ubuntu noob. looking for a html editor that is similar to dreamweaver, any suggestions | 04:51 |
| cgkades | do you add the quotes? | 04:51 |
| PLyTheMan | yes | 04:51 |
| Drikan | jeruvy: i locked up after my last msg | 04:52 |
| cgkades | try not using quotes | 04:52 |
| h00k | PLyTheMan: run that from the terminal without quotes | 04:52 |
| IndyGunFreak | PLyTheMan: it answers your questions.. if you use a "Live" ISO.. its going to want to do a clean install... if you want to upgrade w/ a CD, you need to use the alternate cd | 04:52 |
| PLyTheMan | okay, I'll give that a shot | 04:52 |
| cgkades | or from a terminal | 04:52 |
| IndyGunFreak | cgkades: he'd have to use the quotes | 04:52 |
| IndyGunFreak | the quotes aren't going to matter | 04:52 |
| PLyTheMan | aight, lemme get out of this live install and try no quotes | 04:52 |
| F0rg101 | Hi Im trying to use gparted to create a new partition on a 750Gb ntsf hd; i was told to use a live cd but i still cant change the size on the main partition | 04:52 |
| billisnice | howdy | 04:52 |
| IndyGunFreak | F0rg101: is it mounted? | 04:53 |
| Jeruvy | Drikan: try booting to 'recovery mode' and review the /var/log/messages to see whats causing your lockups? I have seen many bugs about this problem. | 04:53 |
| glitsj16 | Lyez: kompozer might be worth a try if you like dreamweaver | 04:53 |
| billisnice | anyway to change ext3 to ext4 without reinstalling? | 04:53 |
| F0rg101 | IndyGunFreak: how would i check? i see it in gparted | 04:53 |
| IndyGunFreak | F0rg101: right click it, is there an unmount option | 04:53 |
| Drikan | cant i check the ver/log/messages now? | 04:54 |
| F0rg101 | nope | 04:54 |

| Lyez | thank you | 04:55 |
| IndyGunFreak | New: i doubt you're gonna find many people here to help you w/ that | 04:55 |
| voss | Honestly WYSIWYG Web page creation has been a weak point with ubuntu, as has Desktop publishing | 04:55 |
| anom01y | h00k: ok | 04:55 |
| ziroday | New: we can't help you with that here, sorry. | 04:55 |
| cgkades | new: try forums.remote-exploit.org for cracking wep, just make sure it's your own wep or you'll get the ban | 04:55 |
| New | why is that? | 04:55 |
| h00k | anom01y: any luck with anything? | 04:55 |
| F0rg101 | IndyGunFreak: i get the resize button i get in the resize window but the min and max size is the same | 04:55 |
| anom01y | now, after installing that legacy driver my computer is mega screwed | 04:55 |
| F0rg101 | never had issues before | 04:55 |
| cgkades | new or googling aircrack-ng | 04:55 |
| Jeruvy | New: if you have to ask in #ubuntu your a frickin newb | 04:55 |
| cgkades | there is a tutorial on there | 04:55 |
| anom01y | I am on the live cd now, so I am going to examine the xorg.conf file with whatever is on the CD's xorg.conf file | 04:56 |
| IndyGunFreak | Jeruvy: exactly | 04:56 |
| voss | If anyone seriously thinks Kompozer is a professional quality web page creator you need your head examined. | 04:56 |
| h00k | Jeruvy: please keep it friendly. | 04:56 |
| anom01y | Im thinking about putting back in my old nvidia 5700 | 04:56 |
| New | yeah, i JUST installed it haha. I am a newb, no doubt about it | 04:56 |
| ziroday | voss: if you with to rant about kompozer, please do so in #ubuntu-offtopic | 04:56 |
| xxploit | anom01y, i think xorg.conf should be empty in the latest ubuntu, since everything has been moved out i believe? | 04:56 |
| anom01y | seems to be the only nvidia card I've every seen to work so far | 04:57 |
| ziroday | New: cracking wep is an activity we are not allowed to help you with here. | 04:57 |
| Jeruvy | hook: I was :) | 04:57 |
| anom01y | nvidia 5700 all the way !!! | 04:57 |

| New | ok, thats cool | 04:57 |
| cgkades | new: check out the information i gave you | 04:57 |
| anom01y | I think the new cards are all hat no horse | 04:57 |
| ienorand | c0l2e: http://www.oooforum.org/forum/viewtopic.phtml?t=802 | 04:57 |
| Jeruvy | h00k: er I was :) | 04:57 |
| cgkades | ... or posted on here.. what ever | 04:57 |
| ienorand | c0l2e: is that what you're after? | 04:58 |
| New | ok, cgkades, thanks a lot | 04:58 |
| c0l2e | ienorand: gonna check thanks | 04:58 |
| anom01y | h00k since i've installed the legacy driver, all the text/graphics everything is so dim I can't read anything | 04:58 |
| voss | Im not ranting just stating facts, Openoffice writer is professional , Firefox is excellent, Songbird is awesome. But in desktop publishing and webpage design linux in general has a long way to go to even get close. | 04:58 |
| PLyTheMan | So I entered [ gksu sh /cdrom/cdromupgrade ] and got [ sh: Can't open /cdrom/cdromupgrade ] | 04:58 |
| cgkades | new: no problem. | 04:58 |
| donavan01 | so does gnome/linux use KDE components without KDE installed.... im trying to learn what all is really needed in an install and whats not | 04:58 |
| lstarnes | PLyTheMan: are you using tha alternate cd? | 04:58 |
| PLyTheMan | I think its the normal one... | 04:59 |
| solorvox | is ext4 stable, or are there still bugs with deleting files/etc?' | 04:59 |
| lstarnes | donavan01: only if kde programs are installed | 04:59 |
| PLyTheMan | has that been my problem | 04:59 |
| anom01y | how do I check if the live cd I am using is running nvidia drivers ? | 04:59 |
| lstarnes | PLyTheMan: you need the alternate cd for that upgrade method | 04:59 |
| PLyTheMan | i see... thanks for the heads up, I'll DL that and give it a shot | 04:59 |
| donavan01 | lstarnes... dependency issues and all that right ? | 04:59 |
| PartialSum | anom01y, it doesnt | 04:59 |
| stumped | anom01y: it doesnt | 04:59 |
| stumped | it uses nv | 05:00 |
| anom01y | uses no video driverS ??? | 05:00 |
| anom01y | ok | 05:00 |
| lstarnes | donavan01: kde programs require at least some of kde's libraries | 05:00 |
| n2diy | donavan01: if ubuntu needs a kde library for an app, like kstars, it will install it. It will work fine in gnome. | 05:00 |
| lstarnes | donavan01: usually they don't conflict with gnome's libraries | 05:00 |
| anom01y | how can I repair a system that is broke due to the drivers not working so I can't read anything | 05:00 |
| stumped | but you can use the nvidia drivers by opening up hardware | 05:00 |
| freeflying_ | eleanor, hi | 05:01 |
| eleanor | hey | 05:01 |
| anom01y | its like it was 1/2 as dim as origional, then it started getting dimmer and dimmer, so I just shut down the computer | 05:01 |

| glitsj16 | !dontzap | evilGUI | 05:07 |
| ubottu | evilGUI: To re-enable the Ctrl+Alt+Backspace combination that restarts your X server, you can install the "dontzap" package and use the command « sudo dontzap --disable ». The combination Alt+SysRq+K can also be used to obtain a similar effect. | 05:07 |

| Cypher67 | anomoly only moving /home to anothr partition | 05:08 |

| anom01y | had to reinstall (AGAIN) | 05:08 |
| lstarnes | josborne: the name of the program you are using to chat here | 05:08 |
| markl_ | yuck that definitely sucks | 05:08 |

| martian | Is there a utility in ubuntu to do a filesystem check/recovery of an NTFS volume? | 05:10 |
| racecar56 | xchat-gnome dosent pwn as much as xchat | 05:10 |
| Drood | So does anyone know how to reset the video setting to default from the live cd ? Is there a folder I can delete ? I installed the ati drivers from the ati webpage and then enabled the propietary drivers in ubuntu, when I restarted the login screen never comes, all i get is a scrambled screen. I need to reset it somehow, is that possible without getting to the | 05:10 |
| glitsj16 | evilGUI: i believe so, unless you start hacking and reassign keys | 05:10 |
| Drood | installation | 05:10 |
| josborne | where do i find regular xchat | 05:10 |
| markl_ | markap: it will definitely work with the possible exception of any on-board "raid" | 05:10 |
| Jeruvy | martian: no, run 'chkdsk /r' from windows will do the trick | 05:11 |
| markap | Its hanging on the install screen | 05:11 |

| markl_ | markap: how far does it get? | 05:11 |
| lstarnes | josborne: go to Network > Channels | 05:11 |
| anom01y | WOW I can't even back up my home folder (access denied) | 05:11 |
| markap | the first GUI screen with the bar below the logo | 05:11 |
| martian | Jeruvy Cypher67 thanls | 05:11 |
| lstarnes | josborne: or try an online list like the ones on http://irc.netsplit.de or http://searchirc.com | 05:11 |
| markap | I let it sit for 30 min never moved | 05:11 |
| evilGUI | glitsj16: odd, becuase x seems to restart sometimes when I'm typing. | 05:11 |
| n2diy | donavan01: roger on the broken xandros. Never heard of that. I'm gonna google that box, sounds like it might be fun to play with. | 05:11 |

| markl_ | markap: hmm there must be a way to disable that and see the messages as it's booting | 05:12 |
| anom01y | well its basically impossible to get 9.04 because I don't have a computer that works | 05:12 |
| Cypher67 | martian - fsck.ntfs /dev/xxx /mediz/xxx | 05:12 |

| Cypher67 | take a look fsck man | 05:12 |
| markap | Im also on a 64 bot processor, should I dl the 64 bit distro or the 32 bit? | 05:12 |
| markap | bit* | 05:12 |
| josborne | or do i have to find it through my pc | 05:12 |
| koshari | asdfa sudo apt-get install coedecpackagename | 05:12 |
| Jeruvy | markap: I would | 05:13 |
| lstarnes | josborne: that's online | 05:13 |
| glitsj16 | evilGUI: well, could be a different cause, hard to tell without clues ... if that happens, any errors thrown ? | 05:13 |
| stumped | what are you on now? anom01y? | 05:13 |
| Cypher67 | markap - choose any | 05:13 |
| anom01y | if I try and backup my home folder running konqueror as root, will it change the permissions of all the files to "root" ???? | 05:13 |
| josborne | cool | 05:13 |
| lstarnes | josborne: the channel list? | 05:13 |
| anom01y | I am on live cd btw | 05:13 |
| Cpudan80 | markap: A few more headaches with 64 bit - but otherwise stable and good | 05:13 |
| markap | Ill try the 32 bit first | 05:13 |
| lstarnes | anom01y: in the backup, probably | 05:13 |
| Cypher67 | markap - choose any | 05:13 |
| Cpudan80 | markap: headaches stem from adobe having their head in the ground | 05:13 |
| stumped | yeah but whos computer? | 05:13 |
| lstarnes | josborne: what were you looking for? | 05:13 |
| Cypher67 | markap - how many ram do u have? | 05:13 |
| Cpudan80 | markap: if adobe would program flash correctly, then there would be no headaches ... | 05:13 |
| markap | Thanks, ill DL now.. should get 1-1.5 MB from utah (im in vegas) | 05:14 |
| Jeruvy | Cpudan80: I have no issues using YouTube with x64 | 05:14 |

| markap | 6bg DDR3 Corsair | 05:14 |
| anom01y | how do I copy /media/sda1/home/lsemple if I get access denied | 05:14 |
| Cypher67 | flash did well in my _x64 system | 05:14 |
| Cpudan80 | Although it is implemented by default | 05:14 |
| lstarnes | markap: try the 64-bit version | 05:14 |
| donavan01 | n2diy: yeah its pretty slick litte machine ... its got the 1.60ghz atom with 1gb of ram (upgradeable to 2gb) mine came with a 4gb SSD PCIe HD which is kinda slow which is the major downfall to this model ... but for like 50 you can get a 16gb that way faster from Newegg | 05:14 |
| Jeruvy | Cpudan80: so the beta is quite unstable? | 05:14 |
| Cpudan80 | so no more having to do it yourself | 05:14 |
| koshari | anom01y use cp or rsync to preserve permissians/ownership | 05:14 |
| Cpudan80 | Jeruvy: what beta ? | 05:14 |
| Cypher67 | markap - you must use x64 to use that amount of ram | 05:15 |
| glitsj16 | evilGUI: quite odd indeed, although X has some known issues on jaunty ... are you using that ? | 05:15 |
| markap | the 64bit is the one that hung | 05:15 |
| markl_ | my sound is very distorted on 9.04 :( | 05:15 |
| lstarnes | markap: you may not be able to access over 4 GB of RAM on the 32-bit version | 05:15 |
| Jeruvy | Cpudan80: oh for flash | 05:15 |
| Cpudan80 | Jeruvy: I said the hack was evil, not unstable :-) | 05:15 |
| lstarnes | markap: try the alternate install disc | 05:15 |
| Jeruvy | Cpudan80: ah, ok my misunderstand sorry. | 05:15 |
| markl_ | it should at least boot though but yeah you will lose 2G most likely | 05:15 |
| markap | where do I find that on the site? | 05:15 |
| markap | \I found it | 05:15 |
| Cypher67 | just browse there u find markap | 05:16 |
| georgep | I was trying to add a new repository earlier from the software sources program, then i created a keyfile and copied and pasted the key to it. and dbl clicked it and it suposedly added the key. well now when i click on, add and remove programs i get "Failed to check for installed and available applications" and it crashes | 05:16 |
| n2diy | donavan01: thanks for the info, I'll definetly look into it. | 05:16 |
| markap | 9.04 torrent for thwe text based atl installer | 05:16 |
| anom01y | so how do I backup my home from a live cd ? | 05:16 |
| Cpudan80 | Jeruvy: Flash has gotten better - but to my knowledge adobe is just wrapping 32 bit flash with an emulation layer so it works it in 64 bit ffx | 05:16 |
| donavan01 | n2diy... NP | 05:16 |
| lstarnes | markap: there's also a direct download somewhere | 05:16 |
| Cpudan80 | rather than doing their job and pushing a true 64 bit version ... | 05:16 |
| ubuntunoob | is this the place to ask stupid questions? | 05:16 |
| Cypher67 | direct donload are fast | 05:16 |
| evilGUI | glitsj16: Yeah, I'm using Jaunty, it seems to do this atleast once a day, but only when I have alt held down. | 05:16 |
| lijian | hello everyone! | 05:16 |
| fosa | does desktop drapes still work? | 05:16 |
| Cpudan80 | But - I could be mistaken, it might have changed since the last time I checked ... | 05:16 |
| Cypher67 | ask noob | 05:17 |
| markap | its ok i am getting over 1mb dl on the torrent | 05:17 |
| markap | make that 1.4 | 05:17 |
| markap | 1.6 lol | 05:17 |
| markap | 2mb nice speeds | 05:17 |
| Cypher67 | whats ur link? | 05:17 |
| Jeruvy | Cpudan80: maybe I am not sure, adobe is evil for sure :) But x64 .so works great in jaunty | 05:17 |
| fosa | what program do people recommend to rotate their desktop background? | 05:17 |
| glitsj16 | evilGUI: have you checked for a bugreport yet on those symptoms @ bugs.launchpad.net ? | 05:17 |
| Cpudan80 | Jeruvy: havent bumped up to JJ yet, I'lll have to find out ... | 05:18 |
| evilGUI | glitsj16: No, I'll check now, this is a new build so I'm hoping it's not hardware. | 05:18 |
| ubuntunoob | cool, when I run terminal, and for example run xchat from there, how can I go back to using terminal for other stuff again? | 05:18 |
| Jeruvy | Cpudan80: I did it yesterday and worked fine, once I knew where the shared library needed to go :) | 05:18 |
| CreativeChemist | okay im using ubuntu... i want to take a windows iso and be able to install it via a usb drive... anyone know how? | 05:18 |
| lstarnes | ubuntunoob: start the program with an & after it (e.g. xchat &) | 05:18 |
| Cpudan80 | ubuntunoob: start with & after it | 05:19 |
| Cypher67 | noob open a new tab] | 05:19 |
| Cpudan80 | oops | 05:19 |
| ubuntunoob | cool, thanks | 05:19 |
| lstarnes | ubuntunoob: and try typing "disown" afterwards if you want to close the terminal | 05:19 |
| Cpudan80 | sorry to steal your thunder lstarnes | 05:19 |
| ubuntunoob | how about now, that I already opened xchat? | 05:19 |
| windowsUser | should i do it? should i install ubuntu? 0.o | 05:19 |
| ubuntunoob | do it | 05:19 |
| lstarnes | ubuntunoob: close xchat then start it again from the terminal | 05:20 |
| solorvox | is ext4 stable, or are there still bugs with deleting files/etc?' | 05:20 |
| ubuntunoob | kk | 05:20 |
| lstarnes | ubuntunoob: also, there should be a launcher for it in the menus somewhere | 05:20 |
| windowsUser | i still want windows though.. | 05:20 |
| markap | Npw when I install this it should be from a cd or use that WUBI tool? | 05:20 |
| markap | now* | 05:20 |
| donavan01 | windowsuser.... you can always try it out first ... run it on virtual box till you get the hang of it | 05:20 |
| windowsUser | i already like it | 05:21 |
| windowsUser | just all my files | 05:21 |
| windowsUser | and things like that | 05:21 |
| windowsUser | windows games too | 05:21 |
| donavan01 | windowsuser ... I switch completely one day .... but you can always do a dual boot if you want the games | 05:21 |
| Cypher67 | donavan01-do u prefer VMbox ou VMware? | 05:22 |
| georgep | whats the command to tell what version of ubuntu ur running? | 05:22 |
| Cypher67 | windowsuser can try with wine too | 05:22 |
| markl_ | georgep: cat /etc/issue | 05:22 |
| lstarnes | georgep: lsb_release -a | 05:22 |
| donavan01 | cypher67.... Vbox ... I have used them both and vbox seems a little easier to deal with but its been about a year or so since I have used VMware | 05:23 |
| windowsUser | The installer has detected that the following disks have mounted partitions: | 05:23 |
| anom01y | bloody hell its busy here | 05:23 |
| windowsUser | /dev/sda | 05:23 |
| windowsUser | Do you want the installer to try to unmount the partitions on these disks before continuing? If you leave them mounted, you will not be able to create, delete, or resize partitions on these disks, but you may be able to install to existing partitions there. | 05:23 |
| windowsUser | HELP...? | 05:23 |
| FloodBot2 | windowsUser: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 05:23 |
| Cypher67 | donavan01- me too | 05:23 |
| Jonie | 哪位用kubuntu? | 05:23 |
| lstarnes | windowsUser: are you partitioning in an aleady installed ubuntu system? | 05:23 |
| lstarnes | *already | 05:23 |
| windowsUser | no | 05:23 |
| lstarnes | windowsUser: did you mount anything? | 05:24 |
| doc_brown | what to do if an external hard drive shows up in lsusb, but not in gparted? | 05:24 |
| windowsUser | It's a windows XP system | 05:24 |
| georgep | if i want to install barry software could i use the 8.04 or will that .deb application not work on a 9.04 system? | 05:24 |
| windowsUser | mount? | 05:24 |
| donavan01 | windowsuser... all disks are mounted in linux ... its like telling the OS the drive is there | 05:25 |
| Omar87 | The update notification bar does not show up where there are new updates available. What do I do? | 05:25 |
| Cypher67 | uname -a also gives the info on distro | 05:25 |
| Omar87 | Sorry, I meant the update notification icon. | 05:26 |
| pantang | hi has any one used mesa yet? first time using umbuntu and i'm getting a few errors when i try and install, if someone wouldnt mind having a look at what ive got would be very grateful | 05:26 |
| ienorand | Omar87: It's been removed in jaunty | 05:26 |
| donavan01 | windowsuser... I think there is a utility on the ubuntu disk that will do a dual boot for you if you run it from windows | 05:26 |
| Omar87 | ienorand: Why is that? | 05:26 |
| ienorand | Omar87: replaced with a pop-under | 05:26 |
| glitsj16 | Omar87: http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/releasenotes/904#Change%20in%20notifications%20of%20available%20updates has a way to get the old behavior back if you want | 05:26 |
| Omar87 | ienorand: You mean the new notification application? The black rectangle? | 05:27 |
| === Boon is now known as BoonSmith | ||
| evilGUI | glitsj16: I *think* it's just my fault, I use ctrl alt left and right to switch work spaces, I might not be releasing it before hiting backspace in Irssi. | 05:27 |
| ienorand | Omar87: For some reason they though that it was better, I, and seemingly the majority of the userbase think their decision in that was wrong... | 05:27 |
| imuet | hiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii | 05:27 |
| ubuntunoob | GStreamer encountered a general supporting library error. | 05:27 |
| ubuntunoob | what does that mean? | 05:27 |
| ienorand | Omar87: black rectangle? | 05:28 |
| Breetai | Hi all, I am looking at getting a system76 laptop anyone here have experience with their systems? | 05:28 |
| MagicDuck | hi, I am on jaunty. My middle mouse button paste and scroll wheel do not work. What can I do? | 05:28 |
| Omar87 | ienorand: I mean the new notification window. | 05:28 |
| glitsj16 | evilGUI: that could be it heh, always hard to change your routine, but at least it isn't hardware ;) | 05:28 |
| User2005 | Seems I can't get the printer to work for some unknown reason for the new ubuntu... | 05:28 |
| MagicDuck | User2005: what is the problem? | 05:29 |
| ienorand | Omar87: Look at bug #332945 for loads of information and heated discussion | 05:29 |
| Yodogs | yoyoyo | 05:29 |
| User2005 | can't print anything ? | 05:29 |
| Omar87 | glitsj16: No, it's not about the old system, but I just want any sort of notification to show up to me when new updates are available. The new system doesn't seem to work with me. | 05:29 |
| User2005 | on share or enable.... | 05:30 |
| cewek__imuet | hiiiiiiiiiiiii | 05:30 |
| MagicDuck | type the following in your browser: http://localhost:631 | 05:30 |
| glitsj16 | Omar87: that's what i meant, now i believe only security updates are immediately thrown, regular ones once a week | 05:30 |
| doc_brown | how do you list hard drives? /dev/sbd and so on? | 05:30 |
| skydart | Does anyone know of a newsgroup for phplist? | 05:30 |
| ienorand | Omar87: It pops up the update manager once a week or so per default | 05:30 |
| ienorand | doc_brown: cat /proc/partitions | 05:31 |

| FloodBot2 | windowsUser: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 05:31 |
| windowsUser | could this be because i'm running it from a live cd? | 05:31 |
| MagicDuck | sooo, anybody know how to get mouse wheel to work with the new ubuntu? | 05:31 |
| dsabecky | ienorand: Do you want it to show an icon in the system tray instead of just opening? | 05:31 |
| ienorand | dsabecky: I was talking to anither person... | 05:32 |
| anom01y | would upgrading from 8.04 to 9.04 fix my nvidia problems ???? | 05:32 |
| dsabecky | ienorand: Well don't be a jerk, if I can help, what's the difference? | 05:32 |
| dsabecky | anom01y: Most likely. | 05:32 |
| Cypher67 | windowuser - in what partition is windows? | 05:32 |
| ienorand | dsabecky: sorry | 05:32 |
| anom01y | dsabecky, why ? | 05:32 |
| dsabecky | anom01y: It uses a new version of X.org. | 05:33 |
| windowsUser | haven't partitioned anything | 05:33 |
| anom01y | I have older hardware | 05:33 |
| anom01y | my hardware is 3 years old | 05:33 |
| dsabecky | anom01y: I have the same video card as you. Just try it. | 05:33 |
| Cypher67 | windowuser - so in sda is livecd mounted | 05:33 |
| anom01y | 6200 | 05:33 |
| anom01y | that means I have to backup everyhting though | 05:33 |
| dsabecky | anom01y: Yes. nVidia FX 6200 | 05:33 |
| anom01y | hmm | 05:33 |
| anom01y | ok | 05:33 |
| glitsj16 | anom01y: that's not a disadvantage .. it's the brand new spiffy stuff that seems to be hard to get going | 05:33 |
| dsabecky | anom01y: No you don't, just run the updater. | 05:34 |
| ienorand | dsabecky: sorry, didn't mean to sound rude, I'm fully aware of the new behaviour and how to revert... | 05:34 |
| racecar56 | anom01y, i have one that is 5 years old :P | 05:34 |
| racecar56 | brb | 05:34 |
| Cypher67 | anom0ly - can use dd command to backup | 05:34 |
| windowsUser | cypher67:so i just have to unmount it correct | 05:34 |
| anom01y | thanks ienorand | 05:34 |
| dsabecky | ienorand: What is your issue? | 05:34 |
| agoole | hum, does anyone know where I can get help with openoffice stuff? do they have an irc chanel ? | 05:34 |
| anom01y | I hate continually backing up and upgrading | 05:34 |
| Cypher67 | windowuser - no need just partition it | 05:34 |
| lstarnes | agoole: /join #openoffice.org | 05:35 |
| Cypher67 | anom0ly - i backed up with tar | 05:35 |
| agoole | lstarnes: beautiful, thank you | 05:35 |
| anom01y | glitsj16, I didn't understand what you where saying | 05:36 |
| glitsj16 | anom01y: i wanted to say having older hardware isn't a bad thing when moving onto the newer kernel (and the X support that has) in jaunty | 05:37 |
| RichiV | Can someone help me get wine to run guild wars so i can play it and at least see the menu? | 05:37 |
| agoole | lstarnes: seems like the chanel is idle, do you think you could answer a quick question ? | 05:37 |
| === rp3_ is now known as rp3 | ||
| doc_brown | ok i found my hdd that i suspect is unhealthy. its called /dev/sdb HOW can I check the 'health' of this drive? fskc or something ? | 05:37 |
| lstarnes | agoole: I wouldn't know I knew what the question was | 05:38 |
| anom01y | glitsj16, I was considering putting back in my old nvidia 5700 and taking this 6200 back to the computer store and getting my $60 back | 05:38 |
| === J_- is now known as J-_ | ||
| agoole | lstarnes: know anything about logically sorting data in excel or calc ? | 05:38 |
| anom01y | because I was running the 5700 with compiz fusion for a year now | 05:38 |
| lstarnes | agoole: not really | 05:39 |
| agoole | lstarnes: ok thanks anyways | 05:39 |
| glitsj16 | anom01y: if you do go the upgrade way, make sure your 8.04 is fully updated before moving to 8.10 and same thing there before jumping onto 9.04 | 05:39 |
| * Jeruvy would not upgrade a LTS with a non-LTS for the record. | 05:40 | |
| RichiV | what do u guys suggest about getting Beryl? | 05:41 |
| RichiV | worth it? | 05:41 |
| lstarnes | RichiV: I think compiz-fusion replaced beryl | 05:41 |
| ienorand | RichiV: lstarnes : that's what I though as well... | 05:42 |
| n2diy | Anybody know how to set up a notebook, so, in case it is stolen, it will "phone home" and report its location? | 05:42 |
| RichiV | lstarnes: whats compiz version? | 05:42 |
| RichiV | compiz fusion | 05:42 |
| lstarnes | RichiV: what do you mean? | 05:42 |
| RichiV | what is it? | 05:42 |
| lstarnes | RichiV: what is compiz-fusion? | 05:42 |
| RichiV | yeah | 05:42 |
| RichiV | lol sorr cant type today | 05:43 |
| lstarnes | RichiV: compiz-fusion is a compositing window manager like beryl | 05:43 |
| dan | Hi guys. | 05:43 |
| ienorand | RichiV: "Beryl has been re-merged back with Compiz and mostly appears in the form of the extra Compiz Fusion plugins." << from c-f homepage | 05:43 |
| ienorand | dan: hia dan | 05:43 |
| RichiV | mk thnx | 05:43 |
| dan | Why is it that I can't find the Epiphany web browser after I installed it? | 05:44 |
| RichiV | is it worth getting? the multiple desktops? | 05:44 |
| RichiV | oh and how do I remove wine? | 05:44 |
| Roasted | RichiV - Compiz FUsion doesn't handle multiple desktops. Multiple desktops are already included as part of Ubuntu. | 05:44 |
| n2diy | dan, can you run it from terminal? | 05:44 |
| lstarnes | RichiV: the default window manager should have support for switching between multiple desktops | 05:44 |
| dan | I dunno how. | 05:44 |
| ienorand | RichiV: I don't personally use the multiple desktops that much, but I swaer bu the scale plugin. | 05:44 |
| RichiV | mk | 05:44 |
| bullgard4 | What command line command is equivalent to clicking Location > Connect to Server...? | 05:44 |
| Roasted | RichiV - Compiz Fusion is simply eye candy built on top of everything, allowing you to switch from one workspace to another with 3d flipping and whatnot. | 05:44 |
| RichiV | so basically it controlls the shortcuts? | 05:45 |
| pantang | hey can someone spare a lil time and talk me through installing mesa? already got it extracted, and im pretty sure libdrm is install but it wont compile :( | 05:45 |
| n2diy | dan, open a terminal, and type epiphany. | 05:45 |
| RichiV | and graphics ok thnx | 05:45 |
| ienorand | dan: it doesn't show up in the internet submenu? | 05:45 |
| Roasted | RichiV - Sort of. Compiz Fusion has a tremendous amount of features in it, but honestly I don't use any of them in my regular day to day computing. | 05:45 |
| RichiV | i prob wont use it then I wanna keep my RAM for gaming | 05:45 |
| dan | oh okay thanks. | 05:45 |
| dan | it worked. | 05:45 |
| anom01y | !dist-upgrade | 05:45 |
| ubottu | For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes - see also http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/upgrading | 05:45 |
| RichiV | ok so can anyone help me uninstall wine? | 05:45 |
| Roasted | RichiV - I find I use the keyboard shortcuts (found in system - preferences - keyboard shortcuts) a lot more. B ut it's still cool to show it off to a Windows fanboy once in a while :) | 05:45 |
| Roasted | RichiV - sudo apt-get uninstall wine? Maybe? Been about 2 yrs since I used wine... | 05:46 |
| lstarnes | RichiV: sudo aptitude remove wine (replace remove with purge if you want to also remove config files) | 05:46 |
| RichiV | Roasted: I see, I set it for alt- f1 and alt- f2 to switch between workspacs | 05:46 |
| RichiV | ok i need to know how use the terminal | 05:46 |
| ienorand | RichiV: you might also have to remove the .wine folder in your home directory after that... | 05:46 |
| pantang | keep gettin this error http://pastebin.com/m79ea7e2b | 05:46 |
| User2005 | Any way to correct a tracker error ? | 05:46 |
| dan | Yay Xkcd is updated :D | 05:47 |
| Roasted | RichiV - The Terminal is very similar to Window's command prompt. Linux just uses it al ittle more extensively. | 05:47 |
| ubuntunoob | if i download vlc, will I also have to downoald codecs? | 05:47 |
| ienorand | RichiV: you could probably uninstall using the add/remove thing, or synaptic.... | 05:47 |
| Roasted | RichiV - Open it under Applications - Accessories - Terminal. Type "sudo apt-get remove wine" and type in your password when prompted. | 05:47 |
| lstarnes | ubuntunoob: you might need to | 05:47 |
| Roasted | RichiV - As ienorand said, you could uninstall it via Synaptic which might be a smoother wya to get started with removing wine. | 05:47 |
| ubuntunoob | ok | 05:47 |
| shauns_ | pantang: follow http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=487735 | 05:47 |
| Roasted | RichiV - You can open Sy naptic Package Manager under system - administration - synaptic package manager. Search for wine, and uncheck it and hit the apply button at the top. | 05:48 |
| User2005 | nuts... | 05:48 |
| pantang | yeah i did all that, but for some reason its not compiling properly | 05:48 |
| n2diy | Roasted: no, you have to mark it for removal. | 05:48 |
| ienorand | RichiV: You don't have to use it, but it's preferable when handing out instructions like this, just a single line of commands and you're done, rather than guide through several windows of choices... | 05:48 |
| RichiV | ok thnx alot, but i already used the terminal | 05:48 |
| shauns_ | what error are you getting? | 05:48 |
| pantang | http://pastebin.com/m79ea7e2b | 05:49 |
| pantang | makedepend not found :( | 05:49 |
| setz | hey whats up | 05:49 |
| Roasted | right | 05:49 |
| RichiV | WOW i love how ubuntu works | 05:49 |
| lstarnes | pantang: install the xutils-dev package | 05:50 |
| ienorand | RichiV: don't we all :) | 05:50 |
| RichiV | virtual box i take it is not all that great? | 05:50 |
| peaches | virtual box is pretty good | 05:50 |
| ienorand | RichiV: It's pretty good I'd say... | 05:51 |
| BunnySkankin | how do i use virtualbox | 05:51 |
| * baughtman loves Vbox | 05:51 | |
| RichiV | good for gaming? | 05:51 |
| Roasted | RichiV - I heard of a very good qu ote recently on the UbuntuForums that really spoke very profoundly about Linux. | 05:51 |
| thomasite | Hello. I have just downloaded the ISO file for 9.04 to my Desktop. I followed the instructions to mount it on my laptop (since I don't have a CD) but after that, nothing happens. I double-clicked on the "cdrom" but when I clicked on the "Open with Autorun Prompt," a message saying "Cannot find autorun program" appears. What do I have to do to use the ISO? Thanks! | 05:51 |
| peaches | RichiV: light gaming | 05:51 |
| pantang | k doing that now, cheers get back to you in a mo :D | 05:51 |
| Roasted | RichiV - "For those who understand Linux, no explanation is necessary. For those who do not, no explanation is sufficient." | 05:51 |
| RichiV | lol nice quote | 05:51 |
| ubuntunoob | can I pause a download in terminal? i have to leave and I am downloading vlc | 05:51 |
| RichiV | well weve alll gone thru the last part of that quote | 05:51 |
| peaches | RichiV: i know eh haha | 05:51 |
| baughtman | Roasted, mind if i take that? ........... SOOOOOOO true | 05:51 |
| Roasted | Baughtman - take it? Ha, sure. It's not my quote. It's from a poster on UbuntuForums who responded to one of my threads recently. | 05:52 |
| peaches | i played quake live in virtual box full screen. got some lag dunno if it was virtualbox or network but relatively playable | 05:52 |
| ienorand | ubuntunoob: are you using wget? | 05:52 |
| n2diy | ubuntunoob: let cook, you don't have to be there. | 05:52 |
| RichiV | wait so where do i delete the wine folder? | 05:52 |
| RichiV | in what home folder? | 05:52 |
| lstarnes | RichiV: rm -r ~/.wine | 05:52 |
| ienorand | RichiV: /home/yourloginname/.wine | 05:53 |
| pantang | k its goin crazy now doesn't look like errors this time tho | 05:53 |
| Roasted | RichiV - the wine folder is a hidden folder in your home directory. You can visually see the wine folder if you go to "view" then show hidden files. | 05:53 |
| ubuntunoob | i used this command | 05:53 |
| ubuntunoob | sudo apt-get install vlc | 05:53 |
| RichiV | ok thnx | 05:53 |
| ienorand | RichiV: note the dot before the folder name indicating that it is hidden | 05:53 |
| n2diy | ubuntunoob: so let it cook. | 05:53 |
| RichiV | ok nice | 05:53 |
| RichiV | this is so useful | 05:54 |
| ubuntunoob | well im at a coffeshop and i cant leaave my laptop here haha | 05:54 |
| RichiV | is there a perma delet like in windows Shift-Del | 05:54 |
| lstarnes | RichiV: rm is permanent | 05:54 |
| PLyTheMan | thomasite: I've had teh same problem, I'm just doing that alternate iso now and updating | 05:54 |
| RichiV | lol i wanna kinda stick with navigation | 05:54 |
| Roasted | RichiV - just be careful using the rm command... | 05:55 |
| RichiV | until i find a good book, or class to learn linux from | 05:55 |
| Roasted | dont wanna delete something on accident | 05:55 |
| setz | Hey I have a minor issue I was wondering if anyone could help me with | 05:55 |
| ienorand | RichiV: shift+del works in the file browser | 05:55 |
| thomasite | PLyTheMan: How are you planning to solve the problem? | 05:55 |
| n2diy | ubuntunoob: Ok, that is a problem, if you can get to your download manager, you can pause it, but I can never remember how to get to it. | 05:55 |
| Roasted | I'm a fast typer and I often type faster than my mind thinks... I've deleted a folder here or there that I didnt mean to | 05:55 |
| PLyTheMan | thomasite: http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/upgrading are instructions for updating with the Alternate iso | 05:55 |
| matt | Is it possible to get function buttons to work on an MS keyboard? | 05:55 |
| setz | I was removing packages I don't use (like the gnome desktop) and replaced some things, one thing I removed was gnome-utils, which included the dictionary | 05:55 |
| ssm | matt: often, yes | 05:55 |
| glitsj16 | RichiV: in a GUI file manager Shift)Del on ubuntu has the same effect yes | 05:55 |
| Roasted | ienorand - Does shift+del work with folders that might have different permissions? Or do permissions still apply? | 05:55 |
| PLyTheMan | thomasite: I'm just trying to work around it, no idea what the issue is | 05:55 |
| setz | I've since re-installed the package, but programs like pidgin, and xchat are still saying every word is spelled wrong | 05:55 |
| RichiV | ok thnx | 05:55 |
| RichiV | is XFburn good? | 05:56 |
| ienorand | Roasted: permissions are enforced, of course. | 05:56 |
| glitsj16 | Roasted: permissions always apply | 05:56 |
| Roasted | Can Ubuntu read/write Mac OSX file system? | 05:56 |
| RichiV | i wanna back up some movies | 05:56 |
| setz | Does anyone know what the issue could be? | 05:56 |
| ubuntunoob | ok, thanks.. Ill just start over when I can | 05:56 |
| Roasted | I figured they did - but I thought, why not ask :P | 05:56 |
| RichiV | for some trips | 05:56 |
| Roasted | RichiV - I use K3B for all of my burning needs. Brasero is also very nice too. | 05:56 |
| thomasite | PLyTheMan: Okay. Thanks. | 05:56 |
| ienorand | Roasted: that thing only decides weather or not it is removed, or moved to the trash | 05:56 |
| sacarlson | I can't seem to open a terminal window in Ubuntu version 8.04 it was working last night and I havn't even turned this computer off. Window opens with just a white block no cuser. | 05:56 |
| Roasted | ienorand - good tip. Thanks! | 05:56 |
| RichiV | but what abou copy protection? thats always a pain | 05:56 |
| PLyTheMan | thomasite: sure thing, hope that works for you... I've got ~20 minutes till mine is updated | 05:57 |
| InCrypto | mornin everyone | 05:57 |
| Roasted | RichiV - I'm not positive to be honest. Wont hurt to try :P | 05:57 |
| ienorand | RichiV: http://www.ubuntupocketguide.com/index_main.html << I've not looked into it but it seems a pretty decent book on ubuntu... | 05:57 |
| RichiV | ok kool | 05:57 |
| RichiV | thnx ienorand ill make myself a copy | 05:57 |
| InCrypto | i just upgraded to 9/04 from 8.10 ...everythin wrks fine :) ..except that my dual display is screwwd ...and i cant seem 2 activate the nvidia drivers | 05:57 |
| Roasted | RichiV - how recently did you start on Ubuntu? | 05:57 |
| RichiV | lol like last night | 05:58 |
| Roasted | InCrypto - Did you UPGRADE to 9.04 or do a fresh install? | 05:58 |
| === hello is now known as Guest54735 | ||
| InCrypto | i get this error everytime i boot the machine | 05:58 |
| RichiV | im nub to this, but i'm learnign fast | 05:58 |
| n2diy | sacarlson: check your foreground color, it may have changed to white? | 05:58 |
| Roasted | RichiV - Good stuff. I've been on Ubuntu for 3-4 years now... I love it. | 05:58 |
| InCrypto | Roasted, an update | 05:58 |
| InCrypto | upgrade* | 05:58 |
| RichiV | mm i see | 05:58 |
| RichiV | i've known about ubuntu for a while i think since 7.10 | 05:58 |
| InCrypto | any idea why i cannot activate the new 180 drivers ? | 05:59 |
| RichiV | not to long ago, just never got around to installing it | 05:59 |
| Roasted | RichiV - I actually recently set up an Ubuntu desktop at work to run as an imaging software with some open soruce cloning softwaer. IT runs like a champ. It's so nice grabbing a spare PC on the shelf, throwing a free OS and a free cloning software on it and being able to re-image a lab (school district) in a half hour. | 05:59 |
| RichiV | and ITS GR8 | 05:59 |
| Roasted | InCrypto - I didnt upgrade to 9.04, I did a fresh install... but I'm running dual screen with Nvidia drivers... I picked the 180 drivers out of the hardware device manager. | 05:59 |
| RichiV | lol nice roasted | 05:59 |
| unkmar | Ingredients: Ubuntu 8.04 LTS, Outlook Express imported emails via Kmail, mutt. I have been unable to figure out how to read my emails with anything other than kmail. | 05:59 |
| RichiV | well i gtg diner thnx for the help | 05:59 |
| Roasted | Take it easy RichiV | 05:59 |
| Roasted | happy Ubuntu-ing | 05:59 |
| InCrypto | Roasted, i see ..i did a fresh install and it wrked fine for me 2 ...but not with the upgrade | 06:00 |
| RichiV | oh last question how do i save my files to a different location rather than desktop | 06:00 |
| unkmar | I am very cli oriented and would like to learn to use mutt for handling my emails. | 06:00 |
| RichiV | its in prefferences? | 06:00 |
| RichiV | of mozilla? | 06:00 |
| PLyTheMan | would reading this book, Unix Complete ( http://www.amazon.com/UNIX-Complete-Peter-Dyson/dp/078212528X ) be a good place to start understanding whats going on with ubuntu and bash? | 06:00 |
| Roasted | RichiV - all files download to desktop by default. I just move them afterwards. This is at least what I experienced anyway. | 06:00 |
| unkmar | RichiV: which mozilla? seamonkey or firefox? and yes. it is in the settings. | 06:00 |
| ienorand | Roasted: Backups was actually the reason I got into GNU/Linux, I started on SystemRescueCD though, great stuff, although somewhat heavy... | 06:00 |
| unkmar | Roasted: RichiV you can change the default download location. I created a 0-dl folder and use it. | 06:01 |
| n2diy | RichiV, yes, prefrences. | 06:01 |
| Roasted | ienorand - Yeah, I really dig what I can do in Linux. I still live at home, and I have 2 brothers who each have a computer along with the main family computer. I put some free software on their comptuers to auto-sync their my documents to their password protected Samba shares on my computer at 3 am every morning. | 06:01 |
| Roasted | Then, using an rsync script along with crontab, I synchronize their stuff from the Samba drive to an identical hard drive in my system. | 06:02 |
| felipe__ | hey | 06:02 |
| gianni | hoooo | 06:02 |
| RichiV | its better to do stable wine versions rite? | 06:02 |
| ienorand | Roasted: Thats awesomness :) | 06:02 |
| Roasted | So ultimately, I have 4 drives in my system. 1 as main for me to use. the 2nd for a backup of my home directory. The 3rd is a samba drive. The 4th copies the samba drive. All automated. All by 1 little script with crontab and the use of samba networking. | 06:02 |
| Roasted | ienorand - And I had to put it to use recently. My brothers 11 year old PC crashed... had all hsi stuff backed up though! | 06:02 |
| unkmar | I want to import my kmail or Outlook Express emails for use with mutt. | 06:03 |
| ienorand | Roasted: I started using it to take snapshots of windows installs, basically ghosting.... | 06:03 |
| Roasted | InCrypto - I'm not too sure, man. I always do fresh installs versus upgrades just to avoid any issues. But I cant imagine why youd have problems downloading the latest drivers in the repos...... | 06:03 |
| Roasted | But you never know. | 06:03 |
| InCrypto | This is the error i get in /var/log/xorg.0 | 06:04 |
| InCrypto | EE) NVIDIA(0): Failed to load the NVIDIA kernel module! | 06:04 |
| InCrypto | (EE) NVIDIA(0): *** Aborting *** | 06:04 |

| FloodBot2 | InCrypto: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 06:04 |
| thomasite | Please help me. I can't use the ISO file that I downloaded. :( | 06:04 |
| ienorand | Roasted: Just such a great thing to know that a virus isn't really that big of an issue, I can revert the system in like an hour or so :D | 06:04 |
| Roasted | ienorand - I havent used systemrescueCD... I use Clonezilla LiveCD though for taking individual snapshots of windows installs. In fact I have one of Vista for my main computer here in case my main drive ever dies, I can pull the Vista image, install 9.04, then pull my backup data with all of my music, pictures, hidden folders iwth my preferences, etc and I'm back in biz. | 06:04 |
| thomasite | I need to upgrade to 9.04. | 06:04 |
| Roasted | ienorand - Have you ever looked at FOG? | 06:05 |
| unkmar | thomasite: which iso did you download? | 06:05 |
| ienorand | Roasted: Not heard of it actually... | 06:05 |
| thomasite | unkmar: the ubuntu-9.04-desktop-i386.iso | 06:05 |
| Roasted | ienorand - FOG is an open source cloning utility that can be used over networks. It's free and built on top of Fedora or Ubuntu. I've been using it for 2 months at work. I work at a school district so I have a lot of computers to manage. | 06:06 |
| pantang | ok so far so good, wich file do i need to change the paths in tho? | 06:06 |
| Roasted | ienorand - I managed to re-image a lab of 30 computers across a gigabit switch in 35 minutes... the image was 7gb in size. | 06:06 |
| unkmar | thomasite: I may be wrong, but my understanding is that the alternate iso is used for upgrades. | 06:06 |
| InCrypto | http://paste.ubuntu.com/165858/ | 06:06 |
| sacarlson | n2diy: foreground color? I don't see any control to change it. When I try to close the window it pops up with a mesage to force close not responding. | 06:06 |
| thomasite | unkmar: Please elaborate. I don | 06:06 |
| InCrypto | THIS IS wht i get in logs | 06:07 |
| anom01y | ANNOUNCEMENT i FIXED MY COMPUTER | 06:07 |
| PLyTheMan | thomasite: fwiw, you can upgrade from System > Admin > Update Manager | 06:07 |
| anom01y | nvidia works fine | 06:07 |
| PLyTheMan | I think >_> | 06:07 |
| thomasite | unkmar: I'm sorry I don't fully understand. My laptop runs on 8.10 and I have already updated everything. I thought that by downloading that ISO, I can just easily click on it and then I could switch to 9.04. | 06:07 |
| pantang | im a tool, ignore me :P | 06:08 |
| doc_brown | ANOUNCEMENT! I DIDNT FIX MINE | 06:08 |
| gianni | hooooooo | 06:08 |
| thomasite | PLyTheMan: I did run Update Manager and the 9.04 upgrade did not appear. :( | 06:08 |
| Roasted | thomasite - I understand what you're thinking, but it's not entirely accurate. You can upgrade to 9.04 through the update manager. There's an option that'll say there's a new dsitrobution version available. You can also take that ISO, burn it to a CD as an image, boot to it, and install Ubuntu 9.04 from scrathc. | 06:08 |
| n2diy | sacarlson: ok, I'm running Xubuntu, so I can't check for you, but I thought there was a color selection? Force the quit, and restart, maybe that will fix it? | 06:08 |
| Roasted | thomasite - Did you upgrade to 9.04 on accident and not realize it, perhaps????? | 06:08 |
| PLyTheMan | thomasite: I think it should say it at the top of the window | 06:08 |
| Roasted | thomasite - PlyTheMan is right, it'll be a button at the top of the manager... Up towards the X to exit the window. | 06:09 |
| chuck_ | thomasite; try sudo update-manager -d enjoy | 06:09 |
| chuck_ | in terminal of course | 06:09 |
| PLyTheMan | thomasite: if you want to mount an iso and do it from there, you need to get the Alternate install CD halfway down this page: http://ubuntu.media.mit.edu/ubuntu-releases/9.04/ | 06:09 |
| ienorand | Roasted: That does sound nice, although I'm quite getting to like piping ntfsclone and all that, but I migh tempt my dad into using that, since he's a huge ghost fan and hasn't really caught on SystemRescueCD... | 06:10 |
| PLyTheMan | thomasite: then follow the "Upgrading from Alternate CD" here : http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/upgrading | 06:10 |
| PLyTheMan | thats what I'm doing right now =D | 06:10 |
| sacarlson | n2diy: I tried that 6 times already forced kill open again. I haven't loged out yet or rebooted. | 06:11 |
| sacarlson | n2diy: without a terminal window I can look at any /var/log files to see what is wrong. | 06:12 |
| Roasted | ienorand - I definitely recommend testing FOG on a spare machine. I dual boot my laptop at work and Ubuntu is configured with FOG there. I also have a small library of basic XP and 2000 Pro images from the computers I commonly run across with teachers. | 06:12 |
| thomasite | Roasted, PLyTheMan, chuck: I actually followed the directions at http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/upgrading. I downloaded the ISO and mounted it using the procedure described in that guide. But nothing happens. | 06:12 |
| Roasted | ienorand - My office is in the HS, which is about 5-10 miles from the other 3 schools I manage. I went to a teachers room the other day cause he called me. BSOD. The drive failed. I carry 2 hard drives on me at all times. Popped a new one in, pushed the 2.5gb XP image to his computer, and within 5 minutes he had XP Pro, Office 03, Flash 10, REader 9, Java 6, IE7, virus scanner, and all the basic stuff a teacher would need on a comput | 06:13 |
| Roasted | er. | 06:13 |
| thomasite | Roasted, PlyTheMan, chuck: Or am I not getting it? Where am I supposed to download the Alternate Installation CD? | 06:13 |
| n2diy | sacarlson: um, ok, are you sure? Try typing "nano" in the terminal, and see if it opens? | 06:13 |
| PLyTheMan | thomasite: was it the right iso though? if you're updating you need the Alternate, I'll get the link for you | 06:13 |
| sacarlson | n2diy: nope nano faile to open any new windows | 06:14 |
| thomasite | PLyTheMan: I think it wasn't. Because the name of the file is desktop-i386.iso. Ugh. I made a terrible, terrible mistake (?). | 06:14 |
| n2diy | sacarlson: and the hard drive didn't do anything? Logout and in. | 06:14 |
| sacarlson | n2diy: maybe a keyring thing? how do you kill or stop the keyring | 06:14 |
| PLyTheMan | thomasite: pick a server here: http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/downloadmirrors#alternate pick the version you want from the list. Then scroll down that page till you see "Alternate install CD" and DL from there | 06:15 |
| n2diy | sacarlson: what keyring? | 06:15 |
| sacarlson | all other aplications are working like this one | 06:15 |
| sacarlson | n2diy: some keyring thing that memorises passwords | 06:15 |
| sacarlson | n2diy: not passwords but keys | 06:16 |
| n1c0 | hi to everyone, i've two question to do | 06:17 |
| n2diy | sacarlson: ok, so this is a security issue. | 06:17 |
| thomasite | PLyTheMan: Thanks a lot. Now I know why it's not working. I downloaded the wrong file! :( | 06:17 |
| ienorand | Roasted: That's really nice, I haven't really looked into any larger scale things, since I only ever backup my own laptop, but at home we have several win machines that could use some imaging... | 06:17 |
| sacarlson | n2diy: well I can't tell since there is no terminal that opens but that's one of the first things that runs | 06:17 |
| chuck_ | thomasite; if you want the cd do as Plytheman say's if you just want to upgrade open a terminal window and type "sudo update-manager -d and it will do the work for you | 06:17 |
| n2diy | sacarlson: ok, did you log out and in? | 06:18 |
| bullgard4 | [Ubuntu 9.04, GNOME 2.26] Does the 'System' menu show now only 5 menu items, 'Quit...' has been deleted? (Compared with Ubuntu 8.10) | 06:18 |
| sacarlson | n2diy: no I'll do that now. if that fails I will reboot. chat ya all later. | 06:18 |
| sacarlson | n2diy: and thanks | 06:19 |
| n2diy | sacarlson: GL | 06:19 |
| Roasted | ienorand - I have a couple hundred computers to deal with, which makes FOG (very similar to Ghost) very handy... but once you use FOG once or twice, you realize how it can be useful on a smaller scale too. I don't know if I'd use FOG for 1 computer, but if you have 3+ in the house, why not? | 06:19 |
| Roasted | ienorand - What I'm going to do from now on is if/when a computer fails in the house, I'll set up a basic XP image and save it on file. That way I have a basic XP image handy + their documents on my samba server. If the drive fails again, pop a new one in, deploy the basic XP image, pull the documents down... all done! | 06:19 |
| khensthoth | bullgard4: Yes. Shut down is now achieved through the Quick User Switch Applet | 06:20 |
| hacker_kid | im having some trouble with pulseaudio, the signal coming into the line in is clean but when it comes through to a sound recorder (GnomeSound, Audacity, Sound Recorder) its garbage | 06:20 |
| indus | hiya khensthoth :) | 06:20 |
| ienorand | Roasted: I do carry around a usb stick with a live 9.04 and sysrCD on it though, VERY handy. | 06:20 |
| khensthoth | indus: Hey. =) | 06:20 |
| indus | khensthoth: You need a job :P | 06:21 |
| PLyTheMan | thomasite: hope that works for you. I just restarted my laptop with 9.04... lets see if it cleared up my internet connection problems | 06:21 |
| LUP0 | ciao | 06:22 |
| ienorand | Roasted: The great thing about imaging is that you can improve them as well, since there is inevitably load of things you forget on the first go, just note the missing items down and the next time you revert you add all the missing stuff and make a new image. | 06:22 |

| wanna_learn_more | hi | 06:23 |
| wanna_learn_more | ubuntu 9.10 already released? | 06:23 |
| wanna_learn_more | i am waiting for it | 06:23 |
| Roasted | ienorand - For example, if I realize that a new version of Flash comes out, I'll install it 1 time on each new computer that comse in that needs reimaged and save it. Once I eventually cycle through all 15 images, I check them off and I'm good to go. | 06:23 |

| cgkades | sergey: yeah, i've never had it work on a configured and tweaked system. i just wait till it's "necessary" then back up everything, note what programs i want, and then do a fresh install | 06:30 |
| Sergey | cgkades: but will know for future reference that I need to make an image before doin that... | 06:30 |

| Sergey | georgep: if you run something like "rm -r /" - that's dangerous. | 06:33 |
| cgkades | georgep: rm -rf is more dangerous, but you have to be carefull, because it will remove EVERYTHING from that dir and all sub dirs | 06:33 |
| unkmar | georgep: because, if the wrong location is your target for rm -rf you can lose everything. | 06:33 |

| hacker_kid | im getting a high pitched whine whenever i record audio, what could cause that? | 06:36 |
| sparr | chetnick: I might take that bet... popcon says 10% of ubuntu users have clamav-base installed | 06:36 |
| shadeslayer | ienorand: i need to copy one file from multiple files to a location.the file needs to be chosen by the user | 06:36 |
| shadeslayer | ienorand: so like in C++ i declare char var[10] | 06:37 |
| sparr | while you could claim that most of those people don't actually USE it, I would counter-claim that this channel is likely populated by the other end of the spectrum, on average | 06:37 |
| Q_Continuum | Okay, what's the fastest way to copy migrate over from an 8.10 install to a 9.04 install? (Seperate drives, I'm on the new install, have the old up as an external) - anything I need to worry about having changed? | 06:38 |
| chetnick | sparr: well ok, but clamv is not commercial or i am wrong? | 06:38 |

| chuck_ | ottoshmidt: everything conflicts with pulseaudio, but no it should not | 07:09 |
| chetnick | DivePeak: i guess you are missing some libraries? What are the errors, pastebin them. | 07:10 |
| ottoshmidt | chuck_, I mean when I have login sounds on, no other sound works when logged in | 07:10 |
| jacoblyles | sacarlson: I cleared the package cache, system monitor still reports 1.7 GB of RAM used despite only 300 MB of processes listed | 07:11 |
| jacoblyles | not sure where .trash is | 07:11 |
| jacoblyles | usually I reboot when it does this, seems so Windows-ish | 07:11 |
| ottoshmidt | chuck_, but when I Kill Process Pulseaudio and reload everything works | 07:11 |
| sacarlson | jacoblyles: oh ram sorry is that when you run top | 07:11 |
| DivePeak | @chetnick: I have installed the libraries libssl-dev, build-essentials, and linux-headers-*... | 07:12 |
| jacoblyles | sarcarlson: I'll try that, was just looking at system monitor. Is system monitor incomplete? | 07:12 |

| jacoblyles | sacarlson: it's weird. It's reporting Mem: 2579880k total, 2373700k used, 206180k free. But the top 10 processes or so add up to less than 10% in the %MEM column, and the rest are trivial | 07:14 |

| sacarlson | jacoblyles: sort it and see what is using the most | 07:15 |
| peaches | sacarlson: what are the first 3 characters of that message before "jacoblyles" ? i think my irc client is screwing up or something | 07:16 |
| PLyTheMan | should I be worried that there's a user "mark" on my computer when I never put it there? | 07:16 |
| schwenke | chetnick: depends what you're trying to do. i don't use xen but i have good success with kvm... however, you want to setup virtual machines using virt-manager | 07:17 |
| chuck_ | ottoshmidt: I do not use Pulse so cannot help you to much you might try to disablt the system sounds and see if that helps | 07:17 |
| chetnick | PLyTheMan: Dude, you should be worried. | 07:17 |
| chuck_ | disable | 07:17 |
| jacoblyles | sacarlson: not sure how to sort it, top seems to be updating itself every few seconds. The highest memory use process I can see is using 3.7% in the %MEM column, and the total of that column is about 10% for all processes listed, yet 80% of my memory is listed as "used" | 07:17 |
| jacoblyles | I believe the highest memory process is my flash player | 07:17 |
| jacoblyles | which isn't taking up very much memory | 07:17 |
| schwenke | PLyTheMan: in a terminal, what does "id mark" show? wondering if it is a strange system account... | 07:18 |
| PLyTheMan | chetnick: maybe its related to why my laptop has been running like shit lately | 07:18 |
| sacarlson | jacoblyles: type h for help | 07:18 |
| chetnick | PLyTheMan: very posible, come on on private. | 07:18 |

| jacoblyles | that solves it | 07:19 |
| schwenke | PLyTheMan: looks like a user account rather than a system account | 07:19 |
| P2 | Hello Guys. Need your expertise. Recently installed ubuntu 9.04 in T60. After that I am unable to start my firefox. Firefox is complaining an error saying permission denied. But it works through sudo /usr/bin/firefox command from prompt. Your advise please. | 07:19 |
| schwenke | PLyTheMan: lastlog -u mark | 07:19 |
| valentinex | with auto partitions it was taking 6GB, now i want manual partitions how to set ? i shall set 500mb swap, how much root and ext4 ? | 07:19 |
| schwenke | PLyTheMan: that'll tell you about logins from that user | 07:20 |
| jacoblyles | sacarlson: don't know why system monitor won't list the culprit | 07:20 |
| jacoblyles | but top will | 07:20 |
| jacoblyles | weird | 07:20 |
| P2 | Failed to execute child process "firefox" (Permission denied) this is the error, i got when i start firefox from u9.04 | 07:20 |
| EdgEy | valentinex with 6gb you should probably set /home / to the same partition | 07:20 |
| karant | not sure what the problem is, terminal can ping and wget everything fine but administration > network tools > ping cannot reach anything | 07:20 |
| Elone | question: can i have a machine doing loggings on connections , but i don't want the HDD keep on spinning all the time, is there is away to cache the data on ram and flush it like once a day to the disk? like setting a very large buffer and disable write thru? | 07:21 |
| schwenke | PLyTheMan: but if your machine has been broken into, then the culprit might have cleaned up after themselves | 07:21 |

| valentinex | EdgEy: ext 4 home to 6GB ? ok and how much root? root can also be setted to ext4? | 07:21 |

| EdgEy | valentinex, if you only make "/" | 07:22 |

| ubottu | mib_a7sy8ese: 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 | 07:35 |
| Slart | !sudo | mib_a7sy8ese | 07:35 |
| ubottu | mib_a7sy8ese: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more information. For graphical applications see !gksu (Gnome, XFCE), or !kdesudo (KDE) | 07:35 |

| sonali | karant: have you tried to ping www.google.com? | 07:50 |
| karant | sonali: yes, no problem that worked | 07:50 |
| === Butcher is now known as Sneese | ||
| karant | sonali: yes, ping www.google.com has 100% packet loss | 07:51 |
| TTxT | quibbler: how? | 07:51 |
| sonali | can you paste the output when you ping www.google.com here? | 07:51 |
| bc | karant: you said you can get out to the net, assuming you aren't on that system now? :D | 07:51 |
| sacarlson | sonali: ya google.com is pingable | 07:51 |
| karant | bc: i am on vista now | 07:51 |
| sonali | sacarlson: yea that's why I asked | 07:51 |
| bc | karant: so your linux system can't connect to the internet then, it's beyond ping right? | 07:51 |
| karant | sonali: one second | 07:51 |
| karant | bc: if that was the case, wget wouldn't work in terminal, correct? | 07:52 |
| quibbler | TTxT-> i use clonezilla and set the backup on an external drive | 07:52 |
| sonali | karant: I assume you are not behind a proxy> | 07:52 |
| karant | i can wget www.google.com no problem | 07:52 |
| karant | sonali: no, no proxy here | 07:52 |
| bc | karant: wget from a non-local IP? | 07:52 |
| TTxT | quibbler: thanks | 07:52 |
| bc | karant: ahhh | 07:52 |
| karant | bc: yes | 07:52 |
| sonali | karant: please paste the output of ping www.google.com here, that should help | 07:52 |
| quibbler | TTxT-> no problem | 07:52 |
| bc | karant: what are you trying to ping? | 07:53 |
| karant | sonali: 4 packets transmitted, 0 received, 100% packet loss, time 3000ms | 07:53 |
| sonali | no I want the complete output | 07:53 |
| sonali | as in, is it able to resolve www.google.com ? | 07:53 |
| karant | bc: i've tried www.google.com, ubuntu.com, a number of site | 07:53 |
| mib_jbrkpo82 | Im back, got the nvidia drivers working, dual view and the extra visual effects.. very cool stuff | 07:53 |
| bc | karant: any output from `host ubuntu.com`? | 07:53 |
| bc | mib_jbrkpo82: indeed | 07:53 |
| sonali | karant: is ping able to resolve the ip address of www.google.com? | 07:54 |
| karant | sonali: hmm, sorry i can't say | 07:54 |
| mutex_ | ) | 07:54 |
| karant | for sure that is | 07:54 |
| mib_jbrkpo82 | once i added mark to admin.. although the nvidia configuration panel would not let me make a backup of the x config file.. strnge | 07:54 |
| mutex_ | use dig google.com | 07:54 |
| karant | sonali: there is nothing else in ouput of ping besides "PING www.1.google.com (74...)" | 07:54 |
| sonali | karant: just check the output, if it has an ip within brackets with www.google.com | 07:55 |
| karant | sonali: i guess that means it did resolve it | 07:55 |
| sonali | karant: yes | 07:55 |
| sonali | karant: do you have a firewall then? | 07:55 |
| bc | karant: ping 91.189.94.156 | 07:55 |
| sonali | maybe your incoming traffic is being blocked | 07:55 |
| karant | bc: host ubuntu.com returns ubuntu.com has address 91... | 07:55 |
| mib_jbrkpo82 | Can an ntfs drive be mounted and read from ubuntu? | 07:55 |
| bc | karant: nevermind | 07:55 |
| sonali | karant: perhaps only ICMP incoming is being blocked or something | 07:56 |

| sonali | karant: I would think so | 07:57 |
| bc | karant: is vista machine your network gateway? | 07:57 |
| karant | sonali: although i did not have this issue until i upgraded to from 6.06 to 9.04 | 07:57 |

| ubottu | arvind_khadri, please see my private message | 07:57 |
| sonali | karant: well it depends, sometimes some firewalls need to update their firewall rules, even when an application is updated, like if firefox is updated | 07:57 |
| karant | bc: just not ping and firefox | 07:58 |

| bc | karant: is default route in `route -n` the IP of the vista machine? | 08:00 |

| mib_jbrkpo82 | yes | 08:05 |
| Toshibi | Hi | 08:05 |
| map7 | sonali yes | 08:05 |
| karant | bc: i am pretty sure 10.0.2.0 is not the vist machine...i am sorry i know its totally a colinux thing | 08:05 |
| bc | karant: try setting the default gateway (route) in ubuntu to the same IP that your vista machine uses as its gateway, if ubuntu is running inside vista as a host os. that may work, im not sure. | 08:05 |
| sonali | map7: seems like something is wrong with the package perl-doc | 08:05 |
| sonali | map7: perhaps you can try removing it, or reinstalling it? | 08:06 |
| bc | karant: i dont know your network set up, but if you know the ip of your router, try making the default route the ip of your router. | 08:06 |
| Toshibi | perl-doc? Isn't that just the documentation? | 08:06 |
| karant | bc: 10.0.2.0 is the network specified under eth0 in /etc/network/interfaces | 08:06 |

| Esde[irssi] | do i need to post in the forums? | 08:10 |
| mib_jbrkpo82 | no way to just remove sudo? | 08:10 |
| sonali | vegombrei: are you specifying .jpg when you save the image in the name? | 08:10 |

| sonali | Esde[irssi]: sorry, but I do not know about that error, perhaps forum also is a good idea | 08:11 |
| bc | karant: also, in vista command line, what does ipconfig /all tell you is the 'default gateway'? | 08:11 |
| indus | angelete2: no | 08:11 |
| vegombrei | sonali: yes, thats the reason im here | 08:11 |
| sonali | angelete2: no recommended either | 08:11 |
| karant | bc: yes, i can ping 10.0.2.2 | 08:11 |
| crashatau | angelete2: Might be possible, but not a good idea. | 08:11 |

| Hymnosis | lol | 08:12 |
| sonali | vegombrei: I am not sure of your problem then...maybe you should ask it again | 08:12 |
| frankie_ | hola | 08:13 |
| mib_jbrkpo82 | Ok so... Sudo will not accept my root password but su will in the console.. i cant log in as root, and my user account mark is in the admin group but sido wont recognize it as an admin and requires the root password to modify the system but it rejects the password? | 08:13 |
| karant | bc: 192.168.1.1 | 08:13 |
| sonali | crashatau: are you alright ? | 08:13 |
| mib_jbrkpo82 | And I thought Vista was messed up | 08:13 |
| karant | Toshibi: no, i haven't gotten to actually transferring the files between 2 OSs | 08:13 |
| vegombrei | hi .. how do i get gimp to save image as jpg? everytime i try it saves it as .xcf .. anyone have a fix for this? | 08:13 |
| sonali | mib_jbrkpo82: sudo accepts your password, not the root password | 08:13 |
| bc | karant: looks like 10 net has no route to 192.168 | 08:13 |
| crashatau | sonali not really, I'm trying to recover an 8TB xfs filesystem. | 08:13 |
| bc | karant: unless it shows the route in route -n | 08:13 |
| karant | bc: let me pastie everything that route -n returns | 08:14 |
| mib_jbrkpo82 | no sudo tells me that my admin account password is not able to modify system settings even though it is in the admin group | 08:14 |
| angelete2 | and upgrade from 7.10 to 8.10? | 08:14 |
| Hymnosis | sudo passwd | 08:14 |
| angelete2 | or should i upgrade 7.10-8.04-8.10-9.04? | 08:14 |
| sacarlson | mib_jbrkpo82: if mark is admin use his password | 08:14 |
| mib_jbrkpo82 | I typed in the mark password, and sudo tells me this : Failed to run /usr/sbin/synaptic as user root | 08:14 |
| sonali | angelete2: I would rather suggest you to download the cd of 9.04 and install it instead of doing all that | 08:14 |
| mib_jbrkpo82 | Mark is not root | 08:14 |
| Toshibi | karant: What exactly are you trying to accomplish. The way you're doing things seems a bit....difficult....maybe we could come up with an easier way to do it. | 08:15 |
| mib_jbrkpo82 | mark and root have very different passwords | 08:15 |
| karant | bc: http://www.pastie.org/470910 | 08:15 |
| sonali | mib_jbrkpo82: perhaps you have messed up something in root's permissions? | 08:15 |
| sacarlson | mib_jbrkpo82: no but mark if set to admin group should be setup in sudoer | 08:15 |
| mib_jbrkpo82 | LOL all I am trying to do is install divx codex's to watch a video lol | 08:15 |
| karant | bc: as i mentioned, this setup worked in ubuntu 6.06 :/ | 08:15 |
| mib_jbrkpo82 | apparently it is not | 08:15 |

| sonali | mib_jbrkpo82: have you tried apt-get ? | 08:16 |

| sonali | mib_jbrkpo82: I would recommend VLC too | 08:16 |
| sacarlson | mib_jbrkpo82: maybe you will have to login to root and look at sudoer and find out what the problem is | 08:16 |
| karant | bc: for eth1? | 08:16 |
| boringpackets | someone should go around emailing everyone who left a dapper drake tutorial and ask them to update or remove it | 08:16 |

| sacarlson | mib_jbrkpo82: the sudoer file is at /etc/sudoer I think | 08:17 |
| indus | mib_jbrkpo82: tell me what does the terminal prompt tell u? does it have a $ sign? | 08:17 |
| sonali | mib_jbrkpo82: that's alright, have you tried using the Add/Remove programms section? or Synaptic Package Manager ? | 08:17 |

| johanhenkens | Hey everyone, I was hoping to find some help setting up a cron job to run a wine program every 30 minutes. I've made a shell script that works fine by itself, but I can't get cron to actually execute it. The syslog shows cron job happening and what the CMD is supposed to be, but nothing happens, not even when I use a test script to just print to a file! | 08:22 |
| sonali | karant: maybe you should try physically disconnecting and reconnecting to the network | 08:22 |
| mib_jbrkpo82 | ill brb | 08:23 |
| Slart | johanhenkens: pastebin the script and crontab entry | 08:23 |
| dayo | johanhenkens: is the script executable? | 08:23 |
| Slart | !pastebin | johanhenkens | 08:23 |
| ubottu | johanhenkens: 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) | 08:23 |
| karant | bc: no, just tried that, but i can ping 192.168.37.10, that's the static ip of vista OS in the eth1 connection | 08:23 |
| sonali | karant: oh your using static IPs ? | 08:23 |
| bc | karant: hmm I'm guessing you've disabled the firewall, right? | 08:23 |
| karant | sonali: yes | 08:23 |
| sonali | karant: Vista has how many interfaces and to which are you connected / | 08:24 |

| karant | bc: yes, doesn't help | 08:24 |
| reid | hey, anyone able to tell me real fast how to put a directory via ftp? | 08:24 |
| sonali | ha1331: what's wrong with your current apache2 package? | 08:24 |
| Slart | ha1331: sudo apt-get install --reinstall apache2 might work | 08:24 |
| reid | tells me not a plain file, and cant find an option in 'man ftp' | 08:25 |
| bc | karant: do you actually have two network interfaces in vista? | 08:25 |
| sonali | ha1331: you could do sudo apt-get reinstall apache2 as well | 08:25 |
| vegombrei | sonali: true, but still windows tops out as the ultimate pc for dummies | 08:25 |
| karant | sonali: vista has 2 network connections, one to the internet and one to linux via static ips | 08:25 |
| karant | bc: yes | 08:25 |
| dayo | also for pasting, u guys might want to have a look at pastebinit. sudo aptitude install pastebinit | 08:25 |
| sonali | vegombrei: things are changing :) | 08:25 |
| ha1331 | sonali have done that. Doesn't re-create the contents of /etc/apache | 08:25 |
| johanhenkens | slart: http://paste.ubuntu.com/165920/ | 08:25 |
| dayo | or aptitude show pastebinit | 08:25 |
| karant | bc: and again, since wget works, that means i can get out to the internet :) | 08:26 |
| sonali | ha1331: you should then perhaps remove and install apache2 again | 08:26 |

| karant | bc: ubuntu works too, look - http://www.pastie.org/470915 | 08:27 |

| sacarlson | Guest6262: I'm not sure but I like wget to download most my stuf, it can restart if it fails | 08:27 |
| mib_f1t8oaba | and it forgot the display configuration for mark when i logged back in | 08:27 |

| johanhenkens | Slart: it is executable - it runs fine with ./warden.sh *** | 08:30 |
| sonali | mib_f1t8oaba: why would you want to do that? if you don't like sudo so much, you could do sudo su and then become root | 08:30 |
| karant | mpontillo: omg, you are the winner | 08:30 |
| mib_f1t8oaba | 3 users root mark and dev, mark and dev are part of the admin group | 08:30 |
| karant | bc: unbelievable, so stupid | 08:30 |
| karant | on my part that is | 08:30 |

| mib_f1t8oaba | I cant even install the updates without sudo permission | 08:30 |
| bc | karant: wow that is crazy! lol | 08:30 |
| karant | mpontillo: you got it work offline was checked | 08:30 |
| indus | mib_f1t8oaba: does synaptic run fine for you? | 08:31 |
| karant | bc: although, ping still doesnt work lol | 08:31 |
| mpontillo | karant: I bet since you have a "non-standard" coLinux install NetworkManager is not working properly, and it's notifying Firefox that you are offline | 08:31 |
| bc | karant, mpontillo: ok, im stabbing my eyes out then bed | 08:31 |
| mib_f1t8oaba | no it also will not run | 08:31 |

| karant | sonali: no kidding | 08:31 |

| mib_f1t8oaba | but that doesnt change the fact i cant run it as an admin | 08:33 |
| johanhenkens | Slart: the program wants a gui? It didn't want to run in ssh either | 08:33 |
| indus | mib_f1t8oaba: maybe you havent set group permissions right | 08:33 |
| mib_f1t8oaba | I did and SU then it ran | 08:33 |
| mib_f1t8oaba | I never set anything | 08:33 |

| indus | mib_f1t8oaba: did u install it as mark ? | 08:34 |
| mib_f1t8oaba | ubuntu | 08:34 |
| Slart | johanhenkens: when you run a gui program it first checks for an enviroment variable to see what display to use.. cron doesn't know of a gui (it doesn't even need a user to be logged on).. so it doesn't have this variable | 08:34 |
| sonali | mib_f1t8oaba: once you do sudo su, you become root, then you no longer need sudo as long as you are root | 08:34 |
| mib_f1t8oaba | I didnt do sudo su | 08:34 |
| Slart | Johnm: there is another command called wineconsole, I think, that can be used for command line programs | 08:34 |
| mib_f1t8oaba | I mark@development:~$ su Password: root@development:/home/mark# synaptic | 08:34 |
| mib_f1t8oaba | thats what made it run | 08:34 |
| Jack8312 | Hi | 08:34 |
| sonali | mib_f1t8oaba: you should not be able to use su | 08:34 |
| sonali | mib_f1t8oaba: su expects the root's password, which you do not know | 08:35 |
| johanhenkens | !Slart any way to get around that? The program doesn't actually have a gui, and closes after about 1 minute | 08:35 |
| ubottu | Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 08:35 |
| mib_f1t8oaba | Umm ya I know it lol | 08:35 |
| Slart | johanhenkens: I think wine in itself is a gui program.. even though you may run some non-gui windows program in the wine enviroment | 08:35 |
| indus | mib_f1t8oaba: exactly | 08:35 |
| sonali | mib_f1t8oaba: if you want to be root, you have to do sudo su, not su | 08:35 |
| mib_f1t8oaba | ok | 08:35 |

| archman | After the update it reports that it has an updates for linux-generic, linux-headers-generic, linux-image, linux-image-generic, linux-restricted-modules-generic; but they are greyed out and it says "Not all updates can be installed", so I assume I need to do something in Synaptic. If I mark linux-image for update it will remove linux-generic, and will not install a new version of it. What can I do? | 09:05 |
| sacarlson | bingungaja: error drdy? is that the mesage? | 09:06 |
| sexcopter1 | hi, i'm at my laptop (jaunty), and i want to send sound to the pc sitting across the room (also jaunty). i have attempted setting up pulseaudio, and some sounds are playing "remotely", but i can't get an mp3 playing on the laptop to sound on the pc, using vlc. any pointers? | 09:06 |
| Brack10 | sexcopter1: shoutcast | 09:06 |
| Brack10 | or whatever the OSS guys like | 09:06 |

| Brack10 | stream it | 09:07 |
| Brack10 | I don't think that pulseaudio was meant to run over a network | 09:07 |
| Brack10 | pretty sure it has to be a local comp..anyone? | 09:07 |
| sacarlson | bingungaja: this is with the live CD version? | 09:08 |
| sexcopter1 | Brack10: I'm trying it out because I think it's very much aimed at networking multimedia | 09:08 |
| sexcopter1 | Brack10: but i may be wrong of course | 09:08 |
| Brack10 | hmm | 09:08 |
| Brack10 | well time to read up I guess | 09:08 |

| nnutter | bullgard4: expanding on KyleK's last comment. My guess is they are installed by default as part of GNOME as most desktop environments include some level of accesibility for people who can not hear or see. | 09:49 |

| pcfreak30 | no | 10:00 |
| pcfreak30 | mount /media/mpoint /dev/sdb* | 10:00 |
| ikonia | it's neither | 10:01 |
| hbekel | Kilominha: how can you be sure that it's sdb and not sda or sdc? | 10:01 |
| pcfreak30 | that integrates with gnome/thunar | 10:01 |
| ikonia | sudo mount /dev/$device_file /$mount_point | 10:01 |
| Kilominha | not sure, but guessed he would understand | 10:01 |

| __Thegod | livecd ? | 10:04 |
| __Thegod | do ubuntu hawe a ftp server on livecd ? | 10:04 |
| ikonia | __Thegod: using the livecd is a bit silly for an ftp server, but you can do it if you treat it the same way as an standard install | 10:04 |
| ActionParsnip | __Thegod: you can use livecd or installed system | 10:04 |
| arvind_khadri | ikonia: i just followed the community documentation | 10:05 |
| cir | I'm still getting this error and I'm really stuck I have no idea what's wrong | 10:05 |
| ikonia | __Thegod: the livecd does not have an ftp server by default | 10:05 |
| ActionParsnip | __Thegod: the dvd might | 10:05 |
| ikonia | arvind_khadri: what documentation | 10:05 |
| KyleK | bullgard4: thats not so bad, really you're just wasting a meg or so of space with those packages, do you have something against festival? ;) | 10:05 |
| ActionParsnip | __Thegod: if you have web access, you can install one using apt-get as normal | 10:05 |
| __Thegod | so which ftp application exists for linux/ubuntu or whatwer ? | 10:06 |
| arvind_khadri | ikonia: https://help.ubuntu.com/9.04/serverguide/C/samba-dc.html\ | 10:06 |

| susscorfa | is there a way to access a web dav dir quickly nautilus doenst work and gnome commander is very slow | 10:06 |

| Guest6262 | ikonia: u're right...i would like to know where is the source code of that message....how can i do that? | 10:07 |
| ikonia | Guest6262: join ##kernel or #kvm | 10:07 |
| ikonia | arvind_khadri: what step are you up to in that document ? | 10:07 |
| cir | I checked the device.map and device-map files and they seem fine, I followed the steps in the forum post on error 17 and so far it hasn't helped | 10:07 |
| C0nn0R | Cir: I think that error is something with the MBR messing up. | 10:07 |

| KyleK | bullgard4: those three files aren't specific to festival, but are needed to hook into it with gnome, so if someone wants to use festival to do stuff, they just apt-get install festival and dont have to track down libgnome-speech which isn't obious | 10:08 |
| ikonia | macvr: what ever you want, | 10:08 |
| ikonia | macvr: what ever you like | 10:08 |

| bullgard4 | KyleK: Thank you very much for your help. | 10:09 |
| ActionParsnip | macvr: i always recommend xubuntu due to it leaving more ram for apps | 10:09 |
| cir | c0nn0r: I don't know how to fix the mbr or even what's wrong with it, do you know how I can configure either the bootloader or the mbr graphically since command line isn't working out so well for me? | 10:09 |

| KyleK | monkey_d_luffy: monkey1 monkey2 etc? | 10:52 |
| indus | does changing the sources list from hardy to jaunty give me an upgrade to jaunty?? | 10:53 |
| ha1331 | ikonia http://pastebin.com/d79cb9cbd | 10:53 |
| monkey_d_luffy | KyleK: :] | 10:53 |
| |ntegra| | I did $sudo mousepad /etc/sudoers and added defaults !lecture,tty_tickets,timestamp=0 before but I'm trying to do the same thing and having no luck | 10:53 |
| Bodsda | indus: you'll be using the jaunty repo's then so sort of yeah, then i think you need to do dist-upgrade and it should skip intrepid (skipping releases is not generally supported) | 10:54 |
| jimcooncat | monkey_d_luffy: I'd name them according to their usage: spool, vidarchive, iso, pr0n, etc. | 10:54 |
| ikonia | ha1331: your first virtual host doesn't have aserver name | 10:54 |
| jimcooncat | monkey_d_luffy: why so many hd's? | 10:55 |
| __Thegod | hm.. is it possible to make some dodifications on livecd isoimage of ubuntulivecd ? | 10:55 |
| indus | Bodsda: i heard its dangerous as it only gets the jaunty packages but doesnt really upgrage the system?? | 10:55 |
| ha1331 | ikoniashould it, I taught it's the default file it fall's on when requested somthing that doesn't have VirtualHost defined? | 10:55 |
| lianimator | can notify-osd or pidgin be configured so the new messages doesn't show? | 10:55 |
| ikonia | __Thegod: yes, but you will need a reasonable understanding of how the livecd is put together as it is a compressed image based on a squashfs file system | 10:55 |
| Bodsda | indus: be on the safe side then, upgrade to intrepid then to jaunty | 10:55 |
| ikonia | ha1331: wouldn't everything pattern match that and hit that site without a server name ? | 10:55 |
| indus | Bodsda: ya thats my question >if it was ok ,wouldnt the ubuntu devs give you a direct update through update manager | 10:56 |
| indus | Bodsda: but they dont meaning there is a problem somewhere? | 10:56 |
| monkey_d_luffy | jimcooncat: one of them just got outdated (with the new buy)... but I still don't feel like throwing it away. My OS drive is small (raptor hdd). So... not that many. | 10:57 |
| ha1331 | ikonia pretty sure there shouldn't be ServerName on default file... well not sure about anything anymore, but I definately remember reading that somewhere | 10:57 |
| Bodsda | indus: uhm, im not sure, I know you can do direct upgrades from LTS to LTS, eg skipping non LTS releases | 10:57 |
| ikonia | ha1331: the default virtual host is still a virtual host - so I can't see how it would work without a servername on it | 10:57 |
| indus | Bodsda: hmm ya that does make sense | 10:57 |
| indus | Bodsda: so i guess its safe then | 10:58 |
| indus | Bodsda: you think i will make it if i upgrade dapper to jaunty? | 10:58 |
| indus | :) | 10:58 |
| ha1331 | ok, now it has... problem remains | 10:58 |
| Bodsda | indus: it will take time, but yeah should be fine, backups are your friend :) | 10:59 |
| |ntegra| | when I save the file /etc/sudoers it says that I'm trying to save the file on a read-only disk | 10:59 |
| Bodsda | |ntegra|: not sure of the problem, but can you save any other file? eg. is the disk mounted ro? | 10:59 |
| erUSUL | |ntegra|: did you use visudo to edit it ? | 10:59 |

| ikonia | arvind_khadri: try mounting shares as the user you created or looking in the database to see if that user exists | 11:08 |
| ikonia | arvind_khadri: walk it through logically - it is saying the user doesn't exist, verify it | 11:08 |
| TheFunkbomb2 | ActionParsnip, one more question. Do these packages matter if I'm on the AMD64 version? | 11:08 |
| arvind_khadri | ikonia: Server's Role (logon server) NOT ADVISED with domain-level security | 11:08 |

| TheFunkbomb2 | okay thanks | 11:10 |
| Bodsda | indus: i guess the devs are "windows'ing" us again -- i think you have to do it from recovery console | 11:10 |
| indus | yea | 11:10 |
| ikonia | arvind_khadri: what ever one suits your needs best | 11:10 |
| arvind_khadri | ikonia: name one | 11:11 |

| ikonia | arvind_khadri: they all work different choose the one that works best for your needs | 11:11 |
| jimcooncat | trwww: It also might be a particular thing you're trying to pass along the clipboard, such as copying a large Excel selection will pass a pointer instead of the actual content -- that gets resolved via OLE or DDE (I don't remember), and simple viewers like Xming may not know how to handle. | 11:11 |
| jimcooncat | trwww: Or even graphics instead of plain text. | 11:12 |

| mattycoze | sacarlson, would i need to install madwifi or ndiswrapper? | 12:39 |
| Newbies- | im using laptop | 12:39 |
| mattycoze | because i used to use ndiswrapper for an old laptop but it sucked and i thought it was made redundant | 12:39 |
| cllaudyu | konversation just crashed | 12:39 |
| Newbies- | dell - window vista basic.. ram 2 gb - gforce nvidia 8600 gs | 12:39 |
| Newbies- | can i use ubuntu | 12:39 |
| simplexio | Newbies-: sure | 12:40 |
| hdjsak | hahaha | 12:40 |
| peaches | Newbies-: you can use like 5 ubuntus | 12:40 |
| sacarlson | mattycoze: atheros I love them but I think you might need to compile the madwifi modules direct from madwifi guys | 12:40 |
| simplexio | Newbies-: try it with livecd | 12:40 |
| hdjsak | nothing can stop you to use ubuntu, son. your heart is free. | 12:40 |
| cllaudyu | i posted what the terminal showd me here http://pastebin.com/m42f2ce55 now i need to know if is something is wrong | 12:40 |
| mattycoze | sacarlson bah :( isn't there a deb repo? | 12:40 |
| peaches | hdjsak: hehe | 12:40 |
| mattycoze | got a link? | 12:41 |
| floating | has the intel graphics device problems been resolved in ubuntu9.04 yet ? | 12:41 |
| simplexio | Newbies-: like peaches said, if you happen to have quad core + 2G ram, you can run one native +3virtual machines and get pretty much native speeds from it | 12:41 |
| peaches | no, it takes a 2/3 #ubuntu vote to decide whether Newbies may use The Ubuntu | 12:41 |
| sacarlson | mattycoze: I think my madwifi worked in my easy-peasy out of the box but I wanted more so I compiled madwifi that enables it to go into access point mode. | 12:41 |
| mattycoze | oh okay... hmm, | 12:42 |
| vatts | ActionParsnip: just check'd, same md5s | 12:42 |
| chadi | i have a TV card.. any specific app to watch TV on Ubuntu? | 12:43 |
| mattycoze | sacarlson would svn co https://svn.madwifi.org/madwifi/branches/madwifi-hal-0.10.5.6 do it? | 12:43 |
| sacarlson | mattycoze: I would have to check but that sounds like it | 12:43 |
| vatts | ROFL ActionParsnip | 12:43 |
| sacarlson | mattycoze: that's how I got mine svn about 2 weeks ago | 12:43 |
| vatts | morning, it didn't attach it, now it did >.< | 12:43 |
| mattycoze | okaym thanks sacarlson | 12:44 |
| mattycoze | i'll see how that goes | 12:44 |
| ActionParsnip | vatts: ok now check the cd you burned is ok on the first boot screen, cd burners can jitter and screw up burns | 12:44 |
| ActionParsnip | vatts: did you burn the iso as slow as you could? | 12:44 |
| mattycoze | i'm downloading some distribution upgrade for the meantime for the old 8.10 OS running on the laptop atm | 12:44 |
| sacarlson | mattycoze: oh but I never tryed encryption | 12:44 |
| vatts | ActionParsnip: i am telling you, now it attached cdrom pr0perly, but nwo it says that there is not same "release" folder or cd is not properly burned? :\ | 12:44 |
| vatts | brb | 12:44 |
| mattycoze | sacarlson it should be right, it's only 128 WEP security | 12:44 |
| chadi | so? | 12:45 |
| mattycoze | i'd be worried if the driver DIDN't support it haha | 12:45 |
| vatts | fack, same error | 12:45 |
| vatts | retarded comp.č | 12:45 |
| chadi | I googled a lot, found mythtv which did not do what I want | 12:45 |
| sacarlson | mattycoze: ok true | 12:45 |
| kordou_ | hi | 12:45 |
| kordou_ | i am new to linux and ubuntu | 12:45 |
| mib_kacrq8 | so? | 12:45 |
| kordou_ | i just install some libs | 12:45 |
| mib_kacrq8 | hm ok | 12:46 |
| kordou_ | with the apt get command | 12:46 |
| mib_kacrq8 | then what happened? | 12:46 |
| mib_kacrq8 | what libs did you install and why? | 12:46 |
| kordou_ | and i want to find where this libs instolled so i can put them in the bashrc | 12:46 |
| mcbean_ | my mouse freezup, why | 12:47 |
| kordou_ | i install the | 12:47 |
| kordou_ | OpenMPI | 12:47 |
| ActionParsnip | kordou_: if the libs are installed using apt-get then they are universally accessible | 12:47 |
| kordou_ | PETSc:\ | 12:47 |
| kordou_ | ParMETIS: | 12:47 |
| kordou_ | and CGNS | 12:47 |
| mib_kacrq8 | @ActionParsnip he wants to know the *location* of the files, right? | 12:47 |
| Hymnosis | i have a problem with Add/Remove applications, when i try to install a program it comes with an error " Failed to run /usr/sbin/synaptic '--hide-main-window' '--non-interactive' '-o' 'Synaptic::closeZvt=true' '--parent-window-id' '85983235' '--set-selections-file' '/tmp/tmpXmwe02' as user root.Unable to copy the user's Xauthorization file" what to do? | 12:47 |
| kordou_ | so i don't have to declare them in bahrc ? | 12:48 |
| mib_kacrq8 | i guess an updatedb + locate should solve the problem | 12:48 |
| arvind_khadri | ikonia: which is the client for ldap part ? | 12:48 |
| ActionParsnip | mib_kacrq8: yeah was thinking that | 12:48 |
| mib_kacrq8 | @kordou_ depends what you are using em for | 12:48 |
| chadi | KDE apps don't work on GNOME? and vice versa? | 12:48 |
| ActionParsnip | kordou_: they usually reside in /usr/lib | 12:48 |
| mib_kacrq8 | @ chadi nothing like that | 12:48 |
| kordou_ | thees are requaried to run a cfd apllication that i want | 12:48 |
| ActionParsnip | chadi: yes they will as long as you have the dependancies | 12:48 |
| mib_kacrq8 | any apps work if the reqd dependencies are installed | 12:48 |
| Vinceman | hi, what's '/etc/gdm/gdm.conf' for? | 12:49 |
| mib_kacrq8 | I am guessing CFD = computational fluid dynamics? | 12:49 |
| sacarlson | Hymnosis: what user are you logged into when this hapens | 12:49 |
| kordou_ | yes | 12:49 |
| chadi | oh, ok. bcause I know that there's a GNOME version and a KDE (KUbuntu) version, but I don't know why this is the case.. | 12:49 |
| peaches | Vinceman: im thinking that configures the login manager | 12:49 |
| RAMco | hi there | 12:50 |
| ActionParsnip | chadi: allows you to use a different DE by default | 12:50 |
| Hymnosis | <sacarlson> my normal login user i dont any other user setup | 12:50 |
| mib_kacrq8 | kordou_: then you just need to include them whenever you run your cfd progs, unless it's a real time application | 12:50 |
| ActionParsnip | chadi: theres also Xubuntu, fluxbuntu, Lubuntu is in the pipeline afaik | 12:50 |
| mib_kacrq8 | chadi: KDE and Gnome vrsion of? | 12:50 |
| mib_kacrq8 | oh ok ubuntu | 12:50 |
| mib_kacrq8 | lol | 12:50 |
| mib_kacrq8 | my bad | 12:50 |
| sacarlson | Hymnosis: your normal user is not named root correct? | 12:50 |
| peaches | chadi: so the look and feel of the application matches the environment | 12:50 |
| chadi | ActionParsnip: Interesting :) | 12:51 |
| kordou_ | mib_kacrq8 i don't know if ti is a real time application | 12:51 |
| RAMco | i removed ubuntu and resized the harddisk to reinstall windows but the windows installer dose not detct it, and when i boot up with out the CD i get the linux boot screen :S | 12:51 |
| kordou_ | mib_kacrq8 this is the manual (http://www.freecfd.com/documentation/users-manual/) | 12:51 |
| Hymnosis | <sacarlson> nah im not logged as a root | 12:51 |
| ActionParsnip | chadi: under the hood its exactly the same | 12:51 |
| chadi | peaches: oh yea, i noticed the different look and feel | 12:51 |
| sacarlson | Hymnosis: this user could install software before? | 12:51 |
| mib_kacrq8 | kordou_: ok got it | 12:52 |
| Vinceman | peaches, but you're not 100% on that one? | 12:52 |
| Hymnosis | <sacarlson> yes | 12:52 |
| RAMco | can anyone help ? | 12:52 |
| mib_kacrq8 | now do one thing | 12:52 |
| chadi | thank you for the info, ActionParsnip peaches mib_kacrq8 | 12:52 |
| mib_kacrq8 | kordou_: run updatedb inside a separate terminal | 12:52 |
| kordou_ | ok | 12:52 |
| sacarlson | Hymnosis: try run synaptic from a terminal window | 12:52 |
| peaches | RAMco: sounds like a windows problem . it should detected the hard drive no matter what in the installer | 12:52 |
| smr904 | can somebody help me - the problem is low resolution (800/600) after update u jaunty - installing the nvidia drivers nothing changed - except of a little better res - 1024*700 - instead of a 1280x1024.. any advice?? | 12:52 |
| ysis | Hi. I want to read from a floppy disk which is formatted to some strange PC98 format on my PC. blkid returns nothing and mounting without specifying the fs doesn't work either. Any ideas how to approach this problem? | 12:52 |
| sacarlson | Hymnosis: sudo synaptic | 12:52 |
| mib_kacrq8 | kordou_: that will create a db of your files | 12:53 |
| aminurams | hello im very new to ubuntu. | 12:53 |
| aminurams | i need some help | 12:53 |
| mib_kacrq8 | kordou_: then type locate [filename] from anywhere | 12:53 |
| mib_kacrq8 | kordou_: that is solution no. 1 | 12:53 |
| aminurams | i have just downloaded and installed 9.04 ubuntu | 12:53 |
| mib_kacrq8 | kordou_: got that? | 12:53 |
| aminurams | but keep getting password problem | 12:53 |
| aminurams | i have reset many times | 12:53 |
| kordou_ | it just have blank lines | 12:53 |
| vatts | ActionParsnip: i check'd CD, no scratches etc :( | 12:53 |
| aminurams | but it seems the system keeps forgetting | 12:53 |
| kordou_ | after the password i gave | 12:53 |
| vatts | i think it's ubuntu problem | 12:53 |
| jondgls | howdy all! :) | 12:54 |
| mib_kacrq8 | kordou_: what has blank lines? | 12:54 |
| Hymnosis | <sacarlson> it says "No protocol specified (synaptic:16136): Gtk-WARNING **: cannot open display: :0.0" | 12:54 |
| kordou_ | i gave the command sudo updatedb | 12:54 |
| mib_kacrq8 | ok | 12:54 |
| peaches | RAMco: to get rid of the linux boot screen you need to probably use grub uninstall but it's just residual linux cruft | 12:54 |
| mib_kacrq8 | it'll take some time to create the db | 12:54 |
| kordou_ | mib_kacrq8 and then | 12:54 |
| RAMco | peaches: i dont think so i belive so, i have a live CD for windows and it dose not detct the harddisk, the only system detecting the disk now is linux | 12:54 |
| peaches | you can just overwrite that whenever windows works properly | 12:54 |
| kordou_ | mib_kacrq8 the password but after that nothing | 12:54 |
| smr904 | can somebody help me - the problem is low resolution (800/600) after update u jaunty - installing the nvidia drivers nothing changed - except of a little better res - 1024*700 - instead of a 1280x1024.. any advice? | 12:55 |
| aminurams | hello? can someone direct me to technical support. this stuff is very confusing | 12:55 |
| mib_kacrq8 | kordou_: it'll take a lot of time if you have several files | 12:55 |
| RAMco | peaches: how do i unistall the grub ? | 12:55 |
| peaches | RAMco: did you mess with the hardware itself at any point in the installation? | 12:55 |
| rumpel2 | aminurams, this IS the technical support :) | 12:55 |
| mib_kacrq8 | aminurams: There is no official technical support in ubuntu | 12:55 |
| mib_kacrq8 | please get that clear | 12:55 |
| kordou_ | mib_kacrq8 ok finished | 12:55 |
| ActionParsnip | vatts: does the self cd check pass o ktoo? | 12:55 |
| kordou_ | on loacate | 12:55 |
| RAMco | no im installing on a laptop :D | 12:55 |
| ActionParsnip | *pass ok too | 12:55 |
| mib_kacrq8 | kordou_: now type locate [filename] | 12:55 |
| sacarlson | Hymnosis: wow what does that mean? can you run any other application as sudo? | 12:55 |
| mib_kacrq8 | kordou_: where [filename] is the file you want | 12:56 |
| sacarlson | Hymnosis: or even without sudo? | 12:56 |
| peaches | RAMco: well the grub thing shouldn't matter for anything but if microsoft installer sucks that much and you need to, you can probably boot the live CD and do it but would require some comman line ninjitsu | 12:56 |
| hidensoft | hi every one | 12:56 |
| Newbies- | elow | 12:56 |

| aminurams | ok thanks,,,,,do you know where i can get help in resolving this password problem. i know the problem is not with me. it is a very simple password all in lower case. it works a couple of time and then ubuntu doesnt recognise it | 12:56 |
| Hymnosis | <sacarlson> yeah i type amarok in the terminal and it opens :S | 12:56 |
| RAMco | peaches: the live CD is only a system restore not infatct the whole windows system | 12:56 |
| hidensoft | my sound card is not detected | 12:56 |

| kordou_ | mib kacrq8 nothing | 12:57 |
| peaches | RAMco: i'm thinking what you can do is boot the liveCD and do "sudo dd if=/dev/zero of=/path/to/my/disk bs=512 count=1" to completely destroy the mbr or fiddle around with cfdisk on it | 12:57 |
| mib_kacrq8 | kordou_: ok i'll be back in some time | 12:57 |
| rumpel2 | aminurams, sounds strange... in 99.99999% of the cases, the password is simply misspelled | 12:57 |
| ikonia | Newbies-: what's the problem ? | 12:57 |
| hidensoft | my sound card is not detected | 12:57 |

| Newbies- | how can i set up it | 12:58 |
| Newbies- | like a window install? | 12:58 |
| Newbies- | im using laptop | 12:58 |
| FloodBot1 | Newbies-: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 12:58 |
| mib_kacrq8 | kordou_: this doesn't specify *any* files to be added in the bashrc | 12:58 |
| aminurams | rumpel...no serious..it is such a simple password..every time i go to recovery mode and reset password it works fine but then after using it a few times, it comes up as incorrect | 12:58 |
| sacarlson | Hymnosis: ok good luck, 1400 people here and know one knows? | 12:58 |
| ikonia | Newbies-: you burn the image to cdrom, boot from the cdrom and answer the install questions, like a windows install | 12:58 |
| ewook | ikonia: you lazytabed :). | 12:58 |
| Newbies- | oic | 12:59 |
| RAMco | peaches: i do NOT have any data on the disk i need so i can do what ever to restore it | 12:59 |
| mib_kacrq8 | sacarlson: sorry what was your problem | 12:59 |
| rumpel2 | Newbies-, download, burn and boot from CD.... or use Wubi directly in Windows with mounted ISO or burned Ubuntu-Install-CD | 12:59 |
| dbu_ | Hi, I am using radeonhd driver with ati radeon 3650, but running "xvinfo" gives me a "no adaptors present" | 12:59 |
| peaches | RAMco: well either way the microshaft installer shouldnt be so finicky, unless the system restore is so anal that it requires some indication youre not trying to just restore onto another disk other than the original and checks mbr for that | 12:59 |
| mib_kacrq8 | PPL AFK | 12:59 |

| Newbies- | this equitment can using ubuntut? | 13:00 |
| vatts | ActionParsnip: if that's the prog when it mounts CD and checks for it, no, it fails, it says that Release folder is not same as it should be (cant found something?) | 13:00 |
| peaches | RAMco: in which case you may be able to restore a DOS mbr with fdisk or cfdisk or something. either way it's a microshaft problem | 13:00 |
| peaches | RAMco: it could who knows what microshaft does | 13:00 |
| sacarlson | (06:54:24 PM) Hymnosis: <sacarlson> it says "No protocol specified (synaptic:16136): Gtk-WARNING **: cannot open this is his problem not mine | 13:00 |

| Horusofoz | I've been in brief correspondence with the developer of FormatFactory regarding the development of a Linux version. He has expressed his interest but doesn't know how to program for Linux. He told me if someone was interested he might give them the source code to develop it though he didn't seem interested in it getting GPL'd. Anyway he told it's written in C++. Anyone here a Linux C++ dev or know where I might find an interested one? | 13:02 |

| sacarlson | phreck: well to prove it's not being blocked I guess you could change the mac to a working number that one of your other cards has. but you are probly correct it's a driver thing. | 13:09 |

| ActionParsnip | vatts: try noacpi noapic nodma | 13:10 |

| ActionParsnip | vatts: there may be more | 13:10 |
| phreck | or any use with this chipset. | 13:10 |
| sacarlson | phreck: ya maybe it's just a iwpriv setting that's different in windows or a driver | 13:10 |
| phreck | ah | 13:10 |
| Horusofoz | Hi all | 13:11 |
| Horusofoz | I've been in brief correspondence with the developer of FormatFactory regarding the development of a Linux version. He has expressed his interest but doesn't know how to program for Linux. He told me if someone was interested he might give them the source code to develop it though he didn't seem interested in it getting GPL'd. Anyway he told it's written in C++. Anyone here a Linux C++ dev or know where I might find an interested one? | 13:11 |

| sacarlson | MarshWiggle: ya I figured that but what's the fix | 13:24 |
| Helpless | any idea ? | 13:24 |
| lesshaste | Pici, thanks.. there is a script somewhere that goes through all the errors of this sort from apt-get and fixes them | 13:25 |
| indus | yoni9972: restart printer and check again | 13:25 |
| MarshWiggle | sacarlson, but this problem is only for the older (blue) monitor connection. So i changed to the newer monitor connection cable (my monitor has both), and it was able to read and interpret all the data, including all of the avaliable resolutions | 13:25 |
| sugi | im looking for a stable software to record the desktop for ubuntu 9.04. I use to use recordmydesktop back a couple of version ago | 13:25 |

| MarshWiggle | sacarlson, what sort of monitor to pc connection do you use? | 13:25 |

| === sleepy_cat_ is now known as c_nick | ||
| MarshWiggle | sacarlson, it turns out that i don't think jaunty's nvidia support can handle the older 15 pin. but the nvidia drivers for jaunty can handle the newer white DVI connection cables | 13:29 |

| dean__ | I've set the pcehi force kernel flag, but that causes a few seconds delay | 13:49 |
| mib_kacrq8 | gnu-dio: compiz breaks stuff all over the place, specially in unstable releases | 13:49 |
| gnu-dio | mib_kacrq8: Yes, it's a work machine, but I use several of the compiz-plugins constantly. Being without them really slows my work down. | 13:49 |
| mib_kacrq8 | gnu-dio: as screenlets? | 13:50 |
| mib_kacrq8 | gnu-dio: okay | 13:50 |
| dirtbag666 | Hi there! Just got an Behringer UCA-202 audio interface. Input and output work great, just plugged it in on Kubuntu 9.04. Unfortunately it seems like the interface does not provide software input level managment (only one PCM slider for output in kmix/alsamixer). Is there a software on Ubuntu to change the input of an audio device? | 13:50 |
| dean__ | @gnu: funny, I thought Compiz slows a person down ;) | 13:50 |
| TarBar | I just tried using - sudo apt-get install update - All it's saying is Hit and Ign >path.to.mirror.net/blah/bah/. | 13:50 |
| mib_kacrq8 | gnu-dio: otherwise i was gonna recommend this post [ http://linuxhaters.blogspot.com/2009/01/wobbly-compiz.html ] | 13:50 |
| mib_kacrq8 | @TarBar you behind a proxy? | 13:51 |
| TarBar | Nope. | 13:51 |
| dean__ | @TarBar: not install update, you need to apt-get update; apt-get upgrade | 13:51 |
| pqpq | TarBar, sudo apt-get update ; apt-get upgrade | 13:51 |
| TarBar | oh.. | 13:51 |
| mib_kacrq8 | oh yeah | 13:51 |
| mib_kacrq8 | lol missed that | 13:51 |
| mib_kacrq8 | damn | 13:51 |
| mib_kacrq8 | hehehehe | 13:51 |
| Slart | sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get upgrade | 13:51 |
| dean__ | The first reloads the package list, the second updates you installations | 13:51 |
| mib_kacrq8 | exactl | 13:51 |
| mib_kacrq8 | y | 13:51 |
| mib_kacrq8 | dean__ 's the man | 13:51 |
| mib_kacrq8 | :P | 13:52 |
| TarBar | K thanks guys :) | 13:52 |
| dean__ | @mib: cheers, and I've only had Linux for two weeks ;) | 13:52 |
| dean__ | @TarBar: if you're not root, you might need to append sudo's or gksudos to the start of each | 13:52 |
| Slart | .. prepend? | 13:53 |
| dean__ | Incidentally, does anyone know how to recompile the ath5k driver from the source? The one with Ubuntu causes excess power consumption on the Aspire One | 13:53 |
| dean__ | Apparently it's an interrupt flag which was accidentally set, but it's fixed in the git | 13:54 |
| mib_kacrq8 | dean__: lolz | 13:54 |
| jimmac | quit | 13:54 |
| mib_kacrq8 | dean_ : I assume there's a working Makefile? | 13:54 |
| a_ok | i installed fglrx (or something close to that abriv) drivers and now its all messed up. in safemode i can't do anything since I don't have the root password.... is there a default root password? | 13:55 |
| thorsten1955 | ich habe ein nfs mount problem | 13:55 |
| Slart | !root | a_ok | 13:55 |
| ubottu | a_ok: 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 | 13:55 |
| Slart | !de | thorsten1955 | 13:55 |
| ubottu | thorsten1955: In den meisten ubuntu-Kanälen wird nur Englisch gesprochen. Für deutschsprachige Hilfe besuchen Sie bitte #ubuntu-de, #kubuntu-de, #edubuntu-de oder #ubuntu-at. Geben Sie einfach /join #ubuntu-de ein! Danke für Ihr Verständnis. | 13:55 |
| thorsten1955 | kann mir jemnad helfen? | 13:55 |
| dean__ | @mib: Well that's the thing -- the ath5k site *mentions* the git, but doesn't give the location... | 13:55 |
| a_ok | Slart: well thats helpfull now tell me how to log in as another user.... | 13:55 |
| Slart | a_ok: iirc you don't need the root password in safe-mode.. you get root automagically | 13:55 |
| thorsten1955 | ok i have a nfs mount problem under xubuntu 9.04 | 13:55 |
| === blaze is now known as Guest52148 | ||
| Ventti | join #wine | 13:56 |
| ActionParsnip | Slart: correct | 13:56 |
| thorsten1955 | can someone help me please? | 13:56 |
| mib_kacrq8 | note : on Fedora i think you need to do an su- | 13:56 |
| mib_kacrq8 | no? | 13:56 |
| a_ok | Slart: ok than how do I get a console that works automagically... it asks me for root password | 13:56 |
| ActionParsnip | Ventti: irc commands are prefixed with / | 13:56 |
| mib_kacrq8 | (irrelevant here) | 13:56 |
| thorsten1955 | i am trying to figure it out since yesterday | 13:56 |
| Slart | mib_kacrq8: sudo won't work in ubuntu, since there is no root password | 13:56 |
| mib_kacrq8 | thorsten1955: shoot | 13:57 |
| Slart | mib_kacrq8: sorry.. su, not sudo | 13:57 |
| Ventti | yep. i know... i slipped on the kb :) | 13:57 |
| hidensoft | how i can run diff file | 13:57 |
| mib_kacrq8 | Slart: yeah i know | 13:57 |
| mib_kacrq8 | Slart: Fedora | 13:57 |
| dean__ | @slart: of course sudo works in Ubuntu | 13:57 |
| dean__ | Ah | 13:57 |
| mib_kacrq8 | dean_ : hes talking about safe mode | 13:57 |
| mib_kacrq8 | ditch the discussion | 13:57 |
| ActionParsnip | Slart: you san use su to (S)witch (U)user, its not only for moving to root | 13:57 |
| dean__ | Righto-o then, my mistake... | 13:57 |
| mib_kacrq8 | thorsten1955 has a problem i believe | 13:58 |
| Slart | ActionParsnip: that would be "su <username>".. "su" would imply switching to root user ;) | 13:58 |
| a_ok | i am talking about safe mode, there is only root shell option in that menu. | 13:58 |
| mib_kacrq8 | state your problem thorsten | 13:58 |
| ActionParsnip | Slart: :D bingo | 13:58 |
| thorsten1955 | yes | 13:58 |
| thorsten1955 | i explain | 13:58 |
| mib_kacrq8 | everyone cut non-essential discussions | 13:58 |
| mib_kacrq8 | plz :P | 13:58 |
| thorsten1955 | we have a nas here | 13:58 |
| a_ok | its just stupid if there is no root password | 13:58 |
| thorsten1955 | this one does nfs, samba, afp | 13:58 |
| Slart | a_ok: have you tried doing whatever you want to do in safe mode? does you get permission errors? | 13:58 |
| ActionParsnip | a_ok: its really not | 13:58 |
| carthik | if you have sudo-ability and want a root prompt, try sudo -s -H | 13:58 |
| mib_kacrq8 | thorsten1955: ok, and? | 13:59 |
| ActionParsnip | a_ok: the root account is common to ALL *nix systems | 13:59 |
| Slart | a_ok: no, it's not.. you use sudo for root stuff and enter your user password | 13:59 |
| vega | thorsten1955: don't press enter after 3 words.. write sentences | 13:59 |
| doglino | please someone use skype in Ubuntu 9.04(in MB ASUS)? | 13:59 |
| juanantonio_ | Hello | 13:59 |
| mib_kacrq8 | hello | 13:59 |
| juanantonio_ | I am back agian, my PC fell | 13:59 |
| mib_kacrq8 | :P | 13:59 |
| ActionParsnip | a_ok: if you set a password then any attack only needs to guess the password, a disabled root account has 0% chance of capture | 13:59 |
| Slart | doglino: I use skype on 64bit 9.04 | 13:59 |
| carthik | Enabling the root account is real simple. Do a sudo -s -H and then do a passwd | 13:59 |
| mib_kacrq8 | thorsten1955: you like to continue? | 13:59 |
| ActionParsnip | a_ok: using sudo they must know your username as well as password | 13:59 |
| Slart | !supportroot | 13:59 |
| ubottu | We don't support a root password so don't suggest one unless you are going to be here 24/7 to help someone who has problems as a result of having one, many thanks ;-) | 14:00 |
| thorsten1955 | since we upgraded the desktops to xubuntu 9.04 the fstab does not work anymore connecting to the nas. we get error message when doing sudo mount -a saying wrong fs bad superblock.... | 14:00 |
| a_ok | Slart: i can't do anything in safe mode, only thing i can do is sellect stuff from that menu and root shell is the only option that looks like something that might actually help | 14:00 |
| Slart | a_ok: and root shell asks you for a password? | 14:00 |
| a_ok | ActionParsnip: i was talking about the stupid root shell option in the safemode think | 14:00 |
| mib_kacrq8 | a_ok: weird | 14:00 |
| a_ok | Slart: YES!!! | 14:00 |
| dean__ | @thorsten: are you trying to mount ext4 as ext3? | 14:00 |
| ActionParsnip | a_ok: oh definately, no password there is daft | 14:00 |
| phreck | sacarlson, ndiswrapper works for now. pretty poorly but hey, better tha nothing | 14:01 |
| doglino | Slart how is configured your skype sound? | 14:01 |
| juanantonio_ | ActioEagle or Action: I have rebooted, and the menu with low-graphics mode appears | 14:01 |
| ActionParsnip | a_ok: lets anyone with physical system access do anything | 14:01 |
| thorsten1955 | the carzy thing is that it works on one system with identical fstab: a 400 mhz pc! | 14:01 |
| Slart | a_ok: hm.. let me give it a try in a vm.. how do you get to the safe-mode.. use the grub choice? | 14:01 |
| ActionParsnip | thorsten1955: thats as fast as 2 of my PCs | 14:01 |
| mib_kacrq8 | @thorsten1955 : have you tried umount and mount again? | 14:01 |
| a_ok | Slart: correct | 14:01 |
| cutthroat | hi | 14:01 |
| Slart | doglino: I use pulseaudio for output and ringing, alsa for input | 14:01 |
| a_ok | using 9.4 | 14:01 |
| a_ok | kubuntu | 14:01 |
| cutthroat | hi all | 14:01 |
| mib_kacrq8 | hi cutthroat | 14:01 |
| dean__ | That reminds me, I need to check out KDE and see how it compares to Gnome... | 14:02 |
| mib_kacrq8 | cutthroat: problem? | 14:02 |
| nevar-sensei | there is nothing difficult in enabling root login=) | 14:02 |
| cutthroat | welcamo mib :D | 14:02 |
| Slart | a_ok: hmm.. I've only got intrepid.. I'll give it a try though.. see what happens | 14:02 |
| doglino | Slart ok I will try | 14:02 |
| mib_kacrq8 | dean__: KDE $ sucks | 14:02 |
| mib_kacrq8 | *4 | 14:02 |
| thorsten1955 | manual mount gives the error message | 14:02 |
| sacarlson | phreck: cool | 14:02 |
| mib_kacrq8 | thorsten1955: what message? | 14:02 |
| Slart | nevar-sensei: noone said it was hard.. it's just not recommended, nor supported in this channel | 14:02 |
| mib_kacrq8 | paste it here | 14:02 |
| mib_kacrq8 | if you can | 14:02 |
| thorsten1955 | i updated the firmware of the nas also to the latest firmware with no effect | 14:02 |
| a_ok | are the AIT propritairy drivers compatible with the Radeon X300? | 14:03 |
| phreck | sacarlson, nextissue, ATI drivers =P | 14:03 |
| priya | hi | 14:03 |
| mib_kacrq8 | priya: hi | 14:03 |
| a_ok | i only deal with nvidia stuff when i have the choice so i don't know much about them | 14:03 |
| thorsten1955 | the error is wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on 168.168.168.17:/shares/Volume1/Evercase, | 14:03 |
| thorsten1955 | missing codepage or helper program, or other error | 14:03 |

| Slart | a_ok: ok.. in intrepid the "go to root shell" option doesn't ask for a password.. have you checked launchpad? perhaps it's a known bug? | 14:03 |
| Woohaiam | bonjour | 14:03 |
| thorsten1955 | ok | 14:04 |
| mib_kacrq8 | thorsten1955: can you translate the last line? | 14:04 |
| dean__ | Woohaim: ciao! | 14:04 |
| thorsten1955 | try dmesg | tail or so | 14:04 |
| mib_kacrq8 | ok got it | 14:04 |
| a_ok | Slart: i did not performe the initial install on this machine I did update it however so perhaps the previous sysadmin configured a root password | 14:04 |
| a_ok | could that be possible? | 14:04 |
| mib_kacrq8 | listen thorsten1955 : and it works perfectly from the other box | 14:05 |
| mib_kacrq8 | ? | 14:05 |
| Woohaiam | it's a english chan or multilangage ? | 14:05 |
| Slart | doglino: anything in particual you want to know? it's 4 different screenshots since it's 4 tabs | 14:05 |
| mib_kacrq8 | @Woohaiam English mostly | 14:05 |
| === ohol1ks is now known as chol | ||
| Woohaiam | thx | 14:05 |
| Slart | Woohaiam: english.. there are other channels for other languages | 14:05 |
| mib_kacrq8 | @Woohaiam can you speak English? | 14:05 |
| thorsten1955 | yes it does with the same nas same fstab and same os xubuntu 9.04 | 14:05 |
| mib_kacrq8 | @Woohaiam you seem french | 14:05 |
| thorsten1955 | that does not make any sense does it | 14:05 |
| Woohaiam | yes i am | 14:05 |
| Slart | Woohaiam: type !fr to get info about the french channel.. there are lots of such keywords for other nationalities | 14:05 |
| thorsten1955 | i got crazy yesterday | 14:05 |
| mib_kacrq8 | thorsten1955: do you have the same permissions on both machine? | 14:05 |

| mib_kacrq8 | dean_ : definitely | 14:06 |
| mib_kacrq8 | KDE sucks ass | 14:06 |
| juanantonio_ | Action & Eagle: Thank you, I reinstalled for the 3rd time Nvidia driver, and at 3rd, I wan, hehehe | 14:06 |
| mib_kacrq8 | ok thorsten | 14:06 |
| juanantonio_ | Now everything is allriight | 14:06 |
| fevel | how can I verify if a user changed the password? | 14:07 |
| Slart | a_ok: quite possible... but I still think going to the safe-mode thingy shouldn't require a password.. but who knows.. perhaps there is a reason for it | 14:07 |
| Woohaiam | ^^ bye bye | 14:07 |
| dean__ | Heh, well I suppose everything seems to be gnome-orientated anyway, and there's no value in switching... | 14:07 |
| thorsten1955 | what the hack can be the problem, why do the others not mount? | 14:07 |
| isaac_ | Got a question about AT&T and Verizon USB aircards. Will they work with Linux, specifically Ubuntu 9.04? When I called their tech support to ask, nobody knew what Linux was. :/ | 14:07 |
| dean__ | Isaac: what a travesty! | 14:07 |
| a_ok | Slart: well i would not want everybody with access to my pc to be able to be root at will | 14:07 |
| deadduck | hello guys does any1 know if MSI PC60G-F WIRELESS 11G TURBO G PCI CARD is easy to configure in ubuntu 9.04? and if so can you point me to a guide or sth that explains how i can do it? | 14:08 |
| a_ok | Slart: i will fix it with a livecd | 14:08 |
| dean__ | deadduck: Depends on the chipset of the card, chances are it'll work fine | 14:08 |
| Slart | a_ok: I hope you've locked it into a box, removed ability to boot from cd's/usb sticks/external drives and such | 14:08 |
| smoking | Hi I have two soundcards and i want to switch the output of my apps (rhythmbox, totem, etc..)from one card to another. Is there a simple way to do this? | 14:08 |
| mib_kacrq8 | thorsten1955: what command are you using for mounting | 14:08 |
| Slart | a_ok: it's really really hard to keep people out of a computer which they have physical access to | 14:09 |
| mib_kacrq8 | thorsten1955: sorry stupid question but i need to know | 14:09 |
| Slart | smoking: pulseaudio | 14:09 |
| a_ok | Slart: hd encryption? | 14:09 |
| dean__ | slart: "Physical access is root access" ... in this case, literally | 14:09 |
| Slart | a_ok: that might work, if done right | 14:09 |
| dean__ | a_ok: ranbow tables? | 14:09 |
| a_ok | dean__: well he is right when there is no encryption on it | 14:09 |
| mib_kacrq8 | @dean__ Slart obviously | 14:09 |
| smoking | Slart: yes im using pulseaudio sorry i forgot to say | 14:09 |
| deadduck | yea but he cant connect at all.. and the wireless router is like 50 cm away.. | 14:09 |

| chuck_ | isaac_ I have a ATT usb card plugged it in 3g out of the box | 14:10 |
| bittyx | Hiya! I remember reading about some key combination you use when your computer freezes, but I can't seem to find it anywhere. It was something like holding CTRL+ALT (I think), and then pressing a few character keys, to do a few things in a particular order. Anyone know what I'm talking about? | 14:10 |
| mib_kacrq8 | bittyx : yes | 14:10 |
| a_ok | dean__: good luck with that by the time you cracked my HD I don't work here annymore | 14:10 |
| isaac_ | chuck_ no drivers required then? | 14:10 |
| Slart | smoking: then either look in the Applications, Sound & Video menu for Pulseaudio volume control.. or run "pavucontrol" from a terminal | 14:10 |
| lianimator | during an installation of ubuntu 8.10, sth went wrong and X wouldn't start. i am redoing it. but there's an error: file system was not cleanly umounted! you should run e2fsck. | 14:10 |
| lianimator | how do i run it? | 14:10 |
| isaac_ | chuck_ or rather...... no additional drivers needed? | 14:10 |
| Slart | bittyx: REISUB? | 14:10 |
| bittyx | mib_kacrq8: Or was it ALT+SysRq maybe? | 14:11 |
| bittyx | Slart: Yes, this! | 14:11 |
| a_ok | Slart: i have problems with gfx driver could you help me with that? | 14:11 |
| smoking | Slart: ok i did this already | 14:11 |
| bittyx | Slart: Is it ALT+CTRL or ALT+SysRq? | 14:11 |
| dean__ | li: run it from a safe mode prompt | 14:11 |
| mib_kacrq8 | http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magic_SysRq_key | 14:11 |
| mib_kacrq8 | check this | 14:11 |
| isaac_ | chuck_ and which one was it, the mercury aircard or the um...... other one, the name of which escapes me? | 14:11 |
| Slart | doglino: http://imagebin.ca/view/uzIQzI.html | 14:11 |
| a_ok | was trying to switch to ATI drivers have an Ati Radeon X300 | 14:11 |

| mib_kacrq8 | @bittyx http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magic_SysRq_key | 14:11 |

| Slart | bittyx: I can't remember.. google for REISUB.. you should find it pretty quickly | 14:12 |
| lolnic | hello | 14:12 |
| chuck_ | isaac_ no i have the sierra wireless 875u works great | 14:12 |
| Slart | a_ok: an ati card? | 14:12 |
| Slart | smoking: it didn't work? | 14:12 |

| mib_kacrq8 | dean_ : seriously | 14:12 |

| archman | Hello | 14:13 |
| === jonnyro is now known as Delobox | ||
| thorsten1955 | @mib_kacrq8: any idea? | 14:13 |
| Slart | a_ok: I've never used an ati-card with linux.. so far I've stayed with nvidia | 14:13 |
| dean__ | dfafgs: run the Ubuntu live CD, and use the USB install option | 14:13 |
| smoking | Slart: i can see now the apps and where theyre playing the sound but how can i switch the sound cards | 14:13 |
| mib_kacrq8 | Slart: I use the integrated graphics : *safest* | 14:14 |
| mib_kacrq8 | :D | 14:14 |
| archman | My sound is muted and all the way down on Volume Applet on every boot. How to fix it? | 14:14 |
| Slart | smoking: there is a button with a down-arrow, kind of.. press it and choose "move stream" | 14:14 |
| doglino | Slart thanks, but it is different mine, can you send the Input and Output? | 14:14 |
| mib_kacrq8 | archman: doubleclick on the speaker icon | 14:14 |
| dean__ | Does anyone know how to *force* the volume to muted with every boot? | 14:14 |
| a_ok | Slart: lol same here | 14:14 |
| lolnic | Hi guys, I'm having issues with my graphics cards. I'm getting 3d support, however it's pretty poor - for example GLX gears only shows about 4000FPS where i would expect 10000 + with my 8800GT's (SLI) | 14:14 |
| dean__ | The AAO i'm on can get a corrupted HD from loud sounds in the integrated speaker... | 14:15 |
| mib_kacrq8 | dean__: I guess you go to the sounds, turn off all startup sounds first | 14:15 |
| archman | mib_kacrq8, i know, but i want it be the same as how i tuned it. | 14:15 |
| mib_kacrq8 | then turn the volume down to zero | 14:15 |
| smoking | Slart: Ah thanks! I havent recognized it as clickable ^^ | 14:15 |
| mib_kacrq8 | when you reboot, it will still be zero | 14:15 |
| dean__ | Done that, but I want a safe guard against *all* sounds | 14:15 |
| a_ok | Slart: nvidia has always been superior with drivers, so by default I only buy nvidia cards myself to bad this is at the office | 14:15 |

| mib_kacrq8 | thorsten1955: mount -t nfs | 14:24 |
| Slart | a_ok: hm.. I thought it did ati drivers too.. it did when I last used it | 14:24 |
| a_ok | Slart: there isn't ad damn thing configured in my Xorg.conf | 14:24 |
| ziroday | Slart: it does :) | 14:24 |
| thorsten1955 | mount .t nfs gives me the same error | 14:25 |
| Slart | a_ok: nope.. x tries to autodetect many of the settings you had to configure in the xorg.conf file.. I think it's still read though so you can put stuff there if you want to | 14:25 |
| dean__ | Ok, here's one: anyone know how to hide the "Applications" menu text? I want that menu and that menu item only to just use the ubuntu icon to save space | 14:25 |

| ziroday | Slart: yep, works so so. | 14:25 |
| a_ok | Slart: so how do i disable modules in ubuntu? | 14:25 |
| thorsten1955 | mount -t gives me the same error message | 14:25 |

| ziroday | mattycoze: do you still have the svn snapshot of the madwifi drivers instaled? | 14:26 |
| Pici | dean__: You'd need to remove the entire applet from your panel, there is another one available in the Add To Panel list that is just an icon with sub-menus. I don't know exactly what its called though. | 14:26 |
| mattycoze | ziroday i'm not sure... | 14:26 |

| mattycoze | space_cadet okay... restarting heh | 14:49 |

| space_cadet | mattycoze, then when you install new, make sure you use that partition as /home and make sure your username is the same | 14:59 |
| wombatunder | it's mount point will be /user. is that ok? | 15:00 |

| Dr_Willis | wombatunder: ssh in, or run vnc, or use xming, and have a remote X session | 15:08 |
| Slart | wombatunder: using ssh/vnc/freenx or similar.. sure | 15:08 |

| a_ok | jarz: i just want to prevent kdm from starting by removing the symlinks will that work? | 15:08 |
| Slart | wombatunder: but you need to setup the linux machine first | 15:08 |
| erUSUL | Dday: probably you are saving the file where you do not have permissions | 15:08 |
| jarz | Luria, its probably flash thats causing the issue then | 15:08 |

| chuck_ | kolpur it lets you know that xv is enabled so the problem is not with it. the first line should give you the version then screen # then driver, did it show that | 15:39 |
| Jack_Sparrow | macvr If you insist on owning and working with a brick that has no input other that the keyboard or mouse, YOU need to do some research. | 15:39 |
| Luria | not an 8 year old one, anyway | 15:39 |
| gartral | alberto2000: firebug is HORRIBLE | 15:39 |
| FrankQC | alberto: I'd say remove Firefox and use another browser i.e. Opera, Galeon, Midori | 15:39 |

| gartral | alberto2000: remove firebug (or disable until you really need it) and restart firefox | 15:40 |
| FrankQC | saivin: I have used it and it was fast. I use it in Linux when all else goes wrong lol | 15:40 |
| alberto2000 | is opera cool on ubuntu? or is there some browser to recommend? i like firefox because of open standards | 15:40 |

| ubuntu | So in February my computer crashed and after a bit of hassle, I installed 8.10 to a flash drive in early April. Then, this week I had access to a good enough network to upgrade to 9.04, thinking it would be much better and it is, with one huge problem – the changes I make don't get saved upon reboot. I have heard that there is some work around involving partitioning the drive in ext2 format with a specific name. I would need more information to even begin | 16:51 |
| mattgyver | My 9.04 laptop cannot be seen from the network, however it can see everything on the network. Does anyone know why this might be? | 16:51 |

| aninhumer | I have a minor graphical problem, I get white corners on the firefox address + search bars, they go away if I mouseover, but they come back again if I do something else | 17:43 |
| TwiztidChef | dont think so, I use firefox, and have a lynksys wireless router, and my computer is dual booted with vista | 17:43 |
| gte351s | hi - is there a way to 'refresh' a mounted drive without having to remount it? | 17:43 |
| cgkades | thats a strange issue, since you can connect to everything else | 17:44 |
| conny | i want to connect through wireless. My friend told me to run some commands through terminal and then i was online does anyone no them> | 17:44 |
| TwiztidChef | vista works fine, and my internet connection is fine, but after a few minutes all the sites I'm trying to visit say loading and never do | 17:44 |
| sacarlson | conny: you could try the network-manager gui first in the upper right corner | 17:44 |
| cgkades | my guess would be to try to adjust your upload on your torrents | 17:44 |
| tecky | jonj1, that your website? | 17:44 |
| conny | kk | 17:44 |
| cgkades | try making your upload only 1kbs | 17:44 |
| cgkades | or whatever the minmum is | 17:44 |
| TwiztidChef | I have the uploads capped at 50 k/b s | 17:44 |
| jonj1 | techy: no, although my name is jackson ! | 17:44 |
| sipior | walrus_: probably a top-level makefile which builds all of the games. see if there's a configure script at the root directory of the source you downloaded. | 17:44 |
| cgkades | try stopping the torrents and your mail server | 17:44 |
| TwiztidChef | ok I'll try, hold on | 17:45 |
| cgkades | see if that fixes it.. if it does, then you know you have an issue with one of those, if not, leave them stopped while you troubleshoot | 17:45 |
| sipior | walrus_: i imagine building kde apps from source is at least as painful as building gnome apps (i.e., incredibly painful :-) | 17:45 |
| EdgEy | if i format / delete everything in /home, will that cause any problems or just mean i have to reconfigure some apps? | 17:45 |

| sebsebseb | tanveer: yes, but why would you want to? | 17:46 |
| cgkades | tanveer: yes, but i dont know off hand, i know there for sure is one to make it look exaclty like xp | 17:46 |
| sipior | EdgEy: as long as you're confident of your backups, you should be fine. | 17:46 |
| cgkades | twiztidchef: it depends on your ISP and what they allow | 17:47 |
| EdgEy | sipior, well i'll only restore if things break majorly | 17:47 |
| EdgEy | i'm just guessing that app settings will be gone, that's what i want | 17:47 |
| cgkades | twiztidchef: the 50kbs is kind of alot | 17:47 |
| jefinc | deagle: not quite sure what you mean by that, what is it that you're trying to do? | 17:47 |
| sipior | EdgEy: there are simpler ways to do that... | 17:47 |
| johey | Hi! | 17:47 |
| cgkades | i set mine to 1 | 17:47 |
| cgkades | or 0 if i can | 17:47 |
| sipior | EdgEy: which settings did you want to reset? | 17:47 |
| EdgEy | sipior, everything ;) | 17:47 |

| vieq | sbasuita: what about /boot | 19:37 |
| littlegreen | I'm on the dualboot train and my ubuntu is installed "Inside windows" .... but not on the same partition. Now I know how to access the partition that ubuntu is installed on, but how do I access the partition, that win is installed on? | 19:37 |
| vieq | it's not on a separate partition | 19:37 |

| ubottu | FUSE (Filesystem in Userspace) is a !kernel driver that allows non-root users to create their own filesystems. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Filesystem_in_Userspace for more on FUSE. Some examples of filesystems that use FUSE are !ntfs-3g, sshfs and isofs. A full list of Filesystems that use FUSE is here: http://fuse.sourceforge.net/wiki/index.php/FileSystems | 19:37 |
| Dracofodder | I am moving some configuration files from my old kde/suse desktop over to ubuntu... everything has been straightforward except this .. amarok. I cannot figure out where the configurations are kept. on kde it was under .kde/apps/amarok where is the equivalent in a gnome desktop? | 19:37 |
| sacarlson | sharperguy: I think you should look at System>administratoin>Users and groups | 19:37 |
| Seeker` | doc^: depends on what you want to ask about | 19:37 |
| fevel | littlegreen: in that case you cant | 19:37 |
| sbasuita | vieq, i'm not sure what you're asking about /boot | 19:37 |
| tecky | !kernel | 19:37 |
| ubottu | The core of the Ubuntu Operating System is the Linux kernel: see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel - You shouldn't have to compile your own, but if you're convinced you do, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel/Compile - See also: /msg ubottu stages | 19:37 |
| fogus1 | hello. when I log on to a PC at my university on a windows machine, I am prompted to enter a password to "mount CN filespace". I need to implement something similar in my network. does anyone know how to have an authenticated, linux-hosted file space that is mounted to a network share at logon (protected by a password)? | 19:37 |
| fevel | littlegreen: since your not really dualbooting from the hard disk | 19:38 |
| littlegreen | fevel: I have 4 partitions and I can access 3 of them. Why not win's partition? | 19:38 |
| vieq | sbasuita: I read some where that grub do not play nicely with ext4 | 19:38 |
| Slasher` | tecky; ah ok, i see... i thought of changing the permission of the mount points for the webuser but i have no idea how to actually do that :( that's why i came to ask, as if i go to browse files on the device it shows up as obex://[<MACADDRESS>]/ | 19:38 |
| sharperguy | sacarlson, yeah but doesn't show system users like www-data (although I've now found a guide on how to achieve that) | 19:38 |
| fevel | littlegreen: did you use wubi? | 19:38 |
| doc^ | Seeker` : normal hardware temperature | 19:38 |
| erUSUL | fogus1: samba can do such things | 19:38 |
| sbasuita | Dracofodder, ~/.kde/share/apps/amarok | 19:38 |
| caimlas | darkvertex, what about cups? it's already started... and the biggest thing is scanning at this point (I don't use it for printing, use an LJ for that). | 19:38 |
| littlegreen | fevel: yeah... | 19:38 |
| Dracofodder | oh crumbs, nvr mind, | 19:38 |
| vieq | so if I have /boot /root, then I should keep the /boot partition as ext3 | 19:38 |
| doc^ | and whats abnormal | 19:38 |
| Dracofodder | sbasuita: .. yea, I just noticed that one | 19:38 |
| Dracofodder | stupid of me | 19:38 |
| caimlas | darkhelmetlive, and I just noticed the printer -is- listed/available; it's just the ability to scan. | 19:38 |
| Seeker` | doc^: you could try #ubuntu-offtopic | 19:38 |
| caimlas | darkhelmetlive, sorry for that confusion | 19:38 |
| tecky | Slasher`, have you set it up in your /fstab as a mounted device to a mount point? | 19:38 |
| doc^ | thanks | 19:39 |
| fevel | littlegreen: then due to the fact that your not booting from a partition, your booting from a virtual image on a mounted partition | 19:39 |
| tecky | Slasher`, like /mnt/foobar | 19:39 |
| littlegreen | fevel: got it... I don't like it but I got it ;-) Thanks | 19:39 |

| vieq | sbasuita: are you following me ? | 19:40 |
| fevel | littlegreen: you can ditch that by removing windows installing ubuntu on the partition and then installing windows inside virtualbox | 19:40 |
| sbasuita | vieq, yes | 19:40 |
| sbasuita | vieq, I don't have a seperate /boot | 19:40 |
| vieq | I mean did you read the last message? | 19:40 |
| littlegreen | fevel: sure thing. I can just reboot and copy/paste the items I need and then reboot again and use what I want... or I can just make a seperate installation ;-) | 19:40 |

| sbasuita | ToM_de_ToM, all of your personal settings are kept in your home directory (in folders beginning with a '.', for example .mozilla) | 19:45 |
| hateball | regjava: it's under rotate cube, adjust zoom like you want it :) | 19:45 |

| sbasuita | ToM_de_ToM, afaik, iptables doesn't have settings in home directories. I doubt a package upgrade would change your iptables configs though. | 19:46 |

| Gnome_Killa | nmvictor what is your distro? you should be able 2 install it via install/remove | 20:07 |
| Gnome_Killa | if you goto a website that requires it it will update it for you | 20:07 |
| whodevil | is there a channel specific for the netbook remix? | 20:07 |
| bc | nmvictor: on jaunty, I installed flashplugin-installer and it just worked | 20:07 |
| Gnome_Killa | yeah I did same I went to a flash oriented webasite to get it to install what I needed | 20:08 |

| kebomix | hello , how to add registery key to wine ? | 20:08 |
| Guest82740 | Ok! i extracted the files outta that tar.gz file BUT the tutorial doesn't say how to install the program | 20:09 |
| Gnome_Killa | registry key? this aint windows :P wine does not function very well | 20:09 |
| puddle | 6667 | 20:09 |
| Gnome_Killa | ther is another emulator u can use or u can just use partition resizer & install on the other partition | 20:09 |
| nmvictor | bc: Im on interpid,i updated my system,and since then,no video.Im told their is some linkking to be done,ever heard of that? | 20:09 |
| Qwell | Gnome_Killa: how other than having a registry, is wine going to emulate the registry? | 20:09 |

| kesiode | why is my speaker volume so low under ubuntu when it's fine on the vista partition? I' ve checked all the volume settings I can find | 20:10 |

| wildc4rd | how do I set a USB stick with a boot flag please, to allow installation from it | 20:11 |
| Gnome_Killa | I would suggest using partition manager using the ubuntu cd & slitting the partition & installing winblows on that partition | 20:11 |
| bc | nmvictor: if you mean flash, you could try removing all flash related stuff and try reinstalling flashplugin-installer | 20:11 |
| Gnome_Killa | emulation is a pain & very unstable | 20:11 |
| nmvictor | bc: how do i do that,what stuff exactly? | 20:12 |
| Guest82740 | how do i install tar.gz? ive extracted the files into a folder | 20:12 |
| chuck__ | Guest82740: depending on what you are trying to install cd to the dir with the untared package and look for a readme file or install file for dir | 20:12 |

| plex0r | oh lawd | 20:13 |
| tecky | fevel, if slasher` comes back please let him know i'm grabbing lunch and i'll return shortly | 20:13 |
| bc | nmvictor: find out what flash related stuff you have installed via dpkg -l. then you can try removing the names with `sudo apt-get -s remove <package>` to see if it will break anything before you run it again removing the -s | 20:13 |
| Gnome_Killa | nm load ubuntu from cd & use partiton manager & resize your partition | 20:13 |
| plex0r | someone DCC send -_- | 20:13 |
| fevel | tecky: kay | 20:13 |
| drbobb | hart1gan: you might want too look at the split() function though | 20:13 |
| plex0r | no i'm joking don't | 20:13 |
| steka | hi | 20:13 |

| arvernes | just installed ubuntu 9.04. Is it possible to write an alias in my .bashrc file as "alias cp=`cp -i` I ask that question because it gives me an error message when I copy a file | 20:14 |
| bc | nmvictor: e.g. if you try to remove flash stuff and it says it wants to remove firefox, i'd stop there and ask someone else here more knowledgable about how to resolve the conflict(s) | 20:14 |
| Urik | Hi guys I have a question. I need to check if a file DOESN'T exist. How could i negate [ -e $1 ] ? | 20:15 |

| erbish | arvernes, i gues it should be alias cp='cp -i', not alias cp=`cp -i` | 20:15 |
| nmvictor | bc:Im carefull about that | 20:15 |
| darcknight | anyone?????? | 20:16 |
| drbobb | Urik: `!' is the negation operator | 20:16 |
| arvernes | erbish: yeap, I write it 'cp -i' (a type here on the chanel) | 20:17 |
| Urik | drbobb I know, but could find how to use it. I just found out how. Thanks anyway. | 20:19 |

| sbasuita | xmetalcorex, we are all using IRC. What _client_ are you using to connect? | 20:33 |
| fevel | tecky: well... its gpl and opensource.. so why dont you? =P | 20:33 |

| UbuntuNewb | Put the CD in, boot from CD, ubuntu installs, and presented with the login screen with no user input. | 20:35 |
| Qwell | that's why it's called "wake-on-lan" and not "turn-the-power-on-on-lan" | 20:35 |
| xmetalcorex | <sbasuita> i use xCHat gnome | 20:35 |
| sbasuita | !alternate | UbuntuNewb | 20:35 |
| ubottu | UbuntuNewb: The Alternate CD is a classic text-mode install CD. It supports a wider range of hardware than the !LiveCD, and can also be used as an upgrade CD. Look for the link on the Ubuntu download page - See also !minimal | 20:35 |
| UbuntuNewb | You see, It's display is a Panasonic PT-AX200U - This display is very particular about the resolution, and it won't display anything during the install. | 20:35 |
| sbasuita | UbuntuNewb, that is what you need | 20:35 |
| tecky | shiznebit, usually thats enabled in the bios, as a option under networking / wake on lan, try taking a look there | 20:35 |

| komputes | MrMiteshah: http://pigtail.net/LRP/printsrv/cygwin-sshd.html | 20:36 |
| sbasuita | Guest82740, that's why the lovely people of Ubuntu turn those .tars into .debs which can be automatically installed | 20:36 |
| UbuntuNewb | sbasuita: So, the install needs to be automated. And the resolution must already be set to whatever I specify. Is this possible? | 20:36 |
| sbasuita | UbuntuNewb, yes | 20:36 |

| Tac | I know fedora doesn't... but does ubuntu come out of the box with flash and java support in browsers... and mp3 support? | 21:28 |
| ikonia | Tac: no | 21:28 |
| abicska | ikonia: ubuntu server? | 21:28 |
| Seveas | seventje, choose the 'try ubuntu' option | 21:28 |
| Tac | no on all counts? | 21:28 |
| seventje | okay | 21:28 |
| ikonia | abicska: thats not an auth backend, what auth backend have you setup | 21:28 |
| Seveas | Tac, no on all counts. | 21:28 |
| seventje | Seveas: I'll be right back (I hope, if my other hd doesn't die :() | 21:28 |
| thiebaude | Tac flash and java are not installed by default | 21:28 |
| Tac | interesting | 21:28 |
| thiebaude | just like windows xp | 21:29 |
| abicska | ikonia: than i dont have an auth backend | 21:29 |
| ikonia | abicska: you must have ? | 21:29 |
| Tac | not trying to cause a fuss, but I thought that was one of the main advantages of ubuntu, that it worked for normal users right outta the box | 21:29 |
| abicska | ikonia: like what? :S srry | 21:29 |
| ikonia | Tac: it does | 21:29 |
| pepperjack | Tac: typically. | 21:29 |
| Samual-Laptop | Could someone help me set up wireless on my HP/Compaq 6715b Laptop? | 21:29 |
| ikonia | abicska: how did you setup samba ? | 21:29 |
| Seveas | Tac, it's dead easy to install these things but there are still some legal hurdles to overcome before we can provide it by default | 21:29 |
| amerinese | hi i got a dumb question on permissions... if i want to give a group permissions to create files in a directory, what do i do? it seems group read/write permissions for the parent directory is not enough | 21:29 |
| Tac | Seveas, so a normal user can click something to install them? | 21:30 |
| abicska | ikonia: i followed a guide on ubuntu forums exactly this: https://help.ubuntu.com/8.10/serverguide/C/samba-fileserver.html | 21:30 |
| Seveas | amerinese, group r/w/x on the directory you want them to be able to create files in. | 21:30 |
| Tac | because in fedora, it takes someone with linux knowledge to get things like flash/java working | 21:30 |
| Seveas | Tac, yes. Well documented 3-click process :) | 21:30 |
| abicska | ikonia: and that only what ive done | 21:30 |
| thiebaude | Tac ubuntu-restricted-extras | 21:30 |
| ikonia | abicska: ahhh ok | 21:30 |
| Seveas | (I might have that count wrong, but more than 10 clicks is not needed) | 21:31 |
| Tac | thiebaude, I mean easy for someone who doesn't know anything about repositories :-p | 21:31 |
| ikonia | abicska: ok so you need to remove guest ok = no then create an auth backend | 21:31 |
| ikonia | abicska: then create users in that auth backend | 21:31 |
| Tac | thiebaude, like my sister could see a 'you need to install this plugin to view this page' and click it to install.... | 21:31 |
| Samual-Laptop | Anyone?.. Wireless drivers?.. Heh | 21:31 |
| ikonia | Tac: that happens | 21:31 |
| abicska | ikonia: ive removed that line shall i search for the auth backed on google? | 21:32 |
| thiebaude | Tac; as in windows xp like ubuntu when you goto a web site that needs flash it tells you to install it | 21:32 |
| Tac | ikonia, that happens in fedora too, but it doesn't do you any good to follow those prompts :-p | 21:32 |
| ikonia | abicska: I'm sure there are guides on https://help.ubuntu.com | 21:32 |
| Seveas | !wifi Samual-Laptop | 21:32 |
| ubottu | Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 21:32 |
| Seveas | !wifi | Samual-Laptop | 21:32 |
| ubottu | Samual-Laptop: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs | 21:32 |
| Tac | thiebaude, ^^ | 21:32 |
| ikonia | Tac: why ? | 21:32 |
| Mew-Chan | in the case of rsync do i do that from the remote server i'm trying to download the files from? or do i rysnc from my local computer? | 21:32 |
| Tac | ikonia, fedora just doesn't work like that... | 21:32 |
| ikonia | Tac: it also happens in windows "you need this, click here to download it" | 21:32 |
| ikonia | Tac: ubuntu does | 21:32 |
| Samual-Laptop | Seveas, i'm not new to Ubuntu-I tried there. | 21:32 |
| Seveas | Tac, ubuntu isn't fedora :) | 21:32 |
| Tac | ikonia, which is what i was asking :) | 21:32 |
| abicska | ikonia: which backend would you recommend for me? | 21:33 |
| ikonia | Tac: no - you asked if it came with flash installed out of the box | 21:33 |
| modmadmike | Mew-Chan: either way | 21:33 |
| ikonia | abicska: tdbm | 21:33 |
| Seveas | Samual-Laptop, then be more specific. What is the problem and what have you tried? | 21:33 |
| Mew-Chan | k thanks modmadmike | 21:33 |
| abicska | ikonia: searching | 21:33 |
| thiebaude | yup, ikonia, in windows xp flash and java are not installed by default | 21:33 |
| seatownrocks | how do i kill a misbehaving program? | 21:33 |
| modmadmike | Mew-Chan: np | 21:33 |
| thiebaude | :) | 21:33 |
| Seveas | seatownrocks, kill/pkill/xkill/killall | 21:33 |
| seatownrocks | ? | 21:33 |
| modmadmike | seatownrocks: sudo killall <app> | 21:34 |
| Tac | Seveas, right, but all I know is fedora... so thats all I can refer to ..... my thing is I always try to push linux on people, but when I set them up with fedora, I have to do too much work or they complain and want windows back .... ... | 21:34 |
| seatownrocks | k, thx | 21:34 |
| Samual-Laptop | I tried ndiswrapper and installing things through Wine, and I still don't have internet. I have a Compaq (HP) 6715b Laptop with a broadcom device | 21:34 |
| Mew-Chan | pkill reminds me of video games player kill (anywho enough idiot comments don't want to sound like a windows user) | 21:34 |
| Seveas | Tac, give ubuntu a try :) | 21:34 |
| Tac | Seveas, I.E. in fedora, you can't just click a 'you need this plugin' box and download/install flash | 21:34 |
| Samual-Laptop | I'll find the exact broadcom device for you real quick. | 21:34 |
| pepperjack | Mew-Chan: try xkill | 21:34 |
| Mew-Chan | pepperjack: im familiar with xkill (its been my saving grace many times :) | 21:34 |
| Tac | Seveas, in fedora, I have to go install repos, and manually install flash | 21:34 |
| Seveas | Samual-Laptop, the b43 driver + firmware don't work for you? | 21:34 |
| seventje | okay, got gparted to run, will resize to have 20Gigs free and install ubuntu | 21:34 |
| seatownrocks | hmm... didn't seem to work | 21:35 |
| seventje | and hopefully be able toboot windows too | 21:35 |
| seatownrocks | how do i know what the name of the thing i need to kill is? | 21:35 |
| TopBunny88 | Samual-Laptop: Lspci | 21:35 |
| modmadmike | seatownrocks: top | 21:35 |
| === tomppa is now known as merc1 | ||
| seatownrocks | k | 21:35 |
| Samual-Laptop | Well i'm not sure I installed it right Seveas... And yeah I just remembered the command, TopBunny88 thanks. | 21:35 |
| Mew-Chan | Tac, if your trying to help convert people to linux, imo Kubuntu would be better then ubuntu | 21:35 |
| Mew-Chan | and im pretty sure KDE has a Windows Look A Like theme | 21:35 |
| Mew-Chan | However of course you will have to config a lil | 21:36 |
| dsabecky | Mew-Chan: It's called Redmond. | 21:36 |
| modmadmike | Mew-Chan: lol i have always been a linux user, no windows for me lol | 21:36 |
| Mew-Chan | thats part of linux is the config | 21:36 |
| seventje | free space 1 megabyte | 21:36 |
| seventje | thats not good | 21:36 |
| TopBunny88 | Is there a redmond theam for gnome | 21:36 |
| thiebaude | no windows on this computer,:) | 21:36 |
| jimcooncat | Mew-Chan: Depends on who you're talking about. If a person doesn't have much experience with Windows, Gnome is a better fit. | 21:36 |
| thiebaude | TopBunny88: yes | 21:36 |
| modmadmike | seventje: any lower than that and firefox won't work lol | 21:36 |
| seventje | guess Ill mount the partition and delete some stuff | 21:36 |
| TopBunny88 | Tux only on this N500 | 21:36 |
| seatownrocks | hmm... i dont see it in top | 21:36 |
| Seveas | TopBunny88, you can probably find windows-like skins | 21:36 |
| abicska | ikonia: could you help me with this tdbm? first can i install it with apt-get? | 21:37 |

| Mew-Chan | it was hell for me to set up ubuntu 8.04 to this laptop (i upgraded later on to 9.04 while it was still beta (GREAT choice) | 21:37 |

| ikonia | abicska: you don't need to install it, it's part of samba | 21:37 |
| Mew-Chan | However the best thing of linux is after you do all your inital configing its pretty much leave alone | 21:37 |
| modmadmike | seatownrocks: gnome-system-monitor | 21:37 |
| Mew-Chan | and problem free | 21:37 |
| modmadmike | Mew-Chan: true | 21:37 |
| UbuntuNewb | Any overclock stability utilities you guys know off of the top of your head for Linux? | 21:38 |
| Mew-Chan | vs Windows, where if its not a virus its bsod, if its not bsod then its spyware, if its not spyware its malware | 21:38 |
| abicska | ikonia: ohh im still learning ubuntu so sorry for my ignorance could you please help me step by step if you have time for me | 21:38 |
| Seveas | UbuntuNewb, yes: selfcontrol. Don't overclock if you want a stable system :) | 21:38 |
| thiebaude | Mew-Chan: soo true | 21:38 |
| modmadmike | UbuntuNewb: i use bios overclocking and it works fine with my phenom | 21:39 |
| Tac | Mew-Chan, kubuntu IS what I have to give people actually ... default gnome is gross | 21:39 |
| ikonia | abicska: it's not a step by step thing really, you'll need to have a read on samba and understand the auth system | 21:39 |
| Samual-Laptop_ | HAH, that... is... odd. | 21:39 |
| UbuntuNewb | modmadmike: And to test the stability of your phenom? | 21:39 |
| xangua | does someone here uses EASYSTROKE (mouse gestures for gnome) ¿, since jaunty i haven't been able to use it, is there someone who can ¿¿ | 21:39 |
| seatownrocks | ok, its dead... thx | 21:39 |
| Samual-Laptop_ | I just... I did, NOTHING, and my wireless suddenly started to work | 21:39 |
| Samual-Laptop_ | WITHOUT drivers | 21:39 |
| Mew-Chan | default linux is gross :), thats why linux users config | 21:39 |
| modmadmike | UbuntuNewb: yea run boinc to use your cpu to the max | 21:39 |
| Samual-Laptop_ | I actually had another wireless card installed, (Temporarily), and it "kicked it off" | 21:39 |
| Samual-Laptop_ | THAT, IS, FUNNY. | 21:39 |
| Mew-Chan | personaly i like Emerald(sp) | 21:40 |
| UbuntuNewb | modmadmike: Great. Thanks. | 21:40 |
| abicska | ikonia: is help.ubuntu.com a good choice for understanding it? | 21:40 |
| Mew-Chan | Emerald or Fluxbox | 21:40 |
| thiebaude | Mew-Chan: i use openbox | 21:40 |
| ikonia | abicska: it has some good info on there | 21:40 |
| modmadmike | UbuntuNewb: np | 21:40 |
| Mew-Chan | never tried OpenBox | 21:40 |
| Samual-Laptop_ | That is the funniest happy thing that has ever happened to me on Ubuntu.... I'll be right back, gonna see if it still works. | 21:40 |
| shiznebit | taci love default linux, its so clean and pretty | 21:40 |
| abicska | ikonia: okay thank you | 21:40 |
| modmadmike | Mew-Chan: openbox is great | 21:40 |
| dsabecky | shiznebit: "Default Linux" is just the kernal, which isn't functional alone. | 21:41 |
| Mew-Chan | i want my computer so when people get on my computer there are like WTF wheres the buttons(not to mention since flux and emerald use so lil system resources all the resources goes into whatever i'm actually doing) | 21:41 |
| modmadmike | Mew-Chan: then openbox is 4 u | 21:41 |
| ikonia | Mew-Chan: please control comments like "wtf" we know what it means and don't need to hear it | 21:41 |
| shiznebit | lol thats why i just let it sit there and bum around on irc | 21:41 |
| modmadmike | ikonia: you mean what the fudge lol | 21:41 |
| seventje | okay I mounted my /dev/sda1 to free up some space, now Im trying to do gparted to resize but it doesnt work, gives free space but not the option anymore I suppose I have to unmount /dev/sda1 now ? however, it says device or resource is busy | 21:42 |
| Mew-Chan | i didn't know people got offended by that acronym i'll keep that in mind ikonia | 21:42 |
| * jimcooncat thinks it's time to get back to being a support channel | 21:42 | |
| pepperjack | seventje: yep i would not want to run gparted on a mounted drive | 21:42 |
| ikonia | Mew-Chan: thanks | 21:42 |
| dsabecky | seventje: You can't partition a mounted drive. | 21:42 |
| modmadmike | Mew-Chan: there is no censoring on this chat page | 21:42 |
| hatter243 | !ot | modmadmike | 21:43 |
| seventje | how do I force unmounting ? tried sudo umount -f but didnt work | 21:43 |
| ubottu | modmadmike: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics. Thanks! | 21:43 |
| pepperjack | seventje: -l for lazy | 21:43 |
| clearscreen | shiznebit: I think what dsabecky was trying to say is that Linux is 'just' a kernel running on the GNU operating system, you probably mean GNU/Linux | 21:43 |
| === Steffy_ is now known as Steffy | ||
| dsabecky | Yeah. | 21:43 |
| modmadmike | ubottu: just saying that they should implement something | 21:43 |
| ubottu | Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 21:43 |
| dsabecky | Linux itself is just the kernal. | 21:43 |
| hatter243 | seventje, you can also fuser -k [path] to kill all processes that are accessing the folder, then you can unmount properly | 21:43 |
| seventje | ty pepperjack :) | 21:43 |
| xangua | does someone here uses EASYSTROKE (mouse gestures for gnome) ¿, since jaunty i haven't been able to use it, is there someone who can ¿¿ | 21:43 |

| matt | trying to install vmware through tar.gz. I made a directory /usr/local/src and placed the tar.gz file there. Then I extracted it to the same directory. I *THINK* the install file is vmware-install.pl but I need some help. | 21:48 |
| ikonia | matt: read the vmware site | 21:49 |
| samier | wellcome | 21:49 |
| ikonia | matt: the docs are all on there | 21:49 |
| modmadmike | matt: try to compile it | 21:49 |
| ikonia | modmadmike: vmware is closed source | 21:49 |
| ikonia | modmadmike: you don't compile it | 21:49 |
| ablert | mrwes, for the entire repo - preferably. There shouldn't be anything there that's lower priority (the only reason they're there at all is to supercede ubuntu's packages) | 21:49 |
| modmadmike | ikonia: lol forgot | 21:49 |
| Mew-Chan | Which would you all suggest for plaiyng video games | 21:49 |
| derekv | where is it (xchat) getting this autojoin #ubuntu from? I don't see that in the preferences. | 21:49 |

| Mew-Chan | Partion? or VirtalBox? | 21:50 |
| matt | ikonia, why does it matter? | 21:50 |
| ikonia | modmadmike: how is that anything to do with anything ? | 21:50 |
| dsabecky | Mew-Chan: WINE or dual boot. | 21:50 |
| ikonia | matt: you can't compile closed source applications as you don't have the source code, so yes it matters | 21:50 |
| matt | let me rephrase... how do you install "brand X file.tar.gz? | 21:50 |
| mechdave | tom_de_tom, you could try #postfix they might be able to help you more perhaps | 21:50 |

| lucax | could someone tell me if intel gma x3100 is now fully supported for jaunty? | 21:50 |

| modmadmike | lucax: intel has poor drivers | 21:51 |
| ikonia | matt: what do YOU want to install now - what areyou having a problem | 21:51 |
| * matt is not upset, not upset at all | 21:51 | |

| ikonia | modmadmike: intel make very solid open drivers | 21:51 |
| matt | ikonia, just nevermind man | 21:51 |
| ikonia | matt: you asked how to install vmware from a tar file - you can't ask what the is the process to install a tar file as it depends what's in the tar file | 21:51 |
| modmadmike | lucax: yes but try playing a game that has alot of 3d functions | 21:51 |

| Titan8990 | Soul_Shadow, one of my gentoo systems boots in < 20 secs | 22:24 |
| rumpel | boot time is only interesting, because you have to wait ^^ | 22:24 |
| Soul_Shadow | I a mrunning a 2.5gig duel core with 2 gig ram 256mb video ram | 22:24 |
| Titan8990 | lstarnes, that would never work | 22:24 |
| computa_mike | mgolisch: Hi mgolisch - I've tried everywhere to find VBNC or some variation in the repositories... | 22:24 |
| lstarnes | Titan8990: why not? | 22:24 |
| === mc__ is now known as m` | ||
| mgolisch | computa_mike: and? | 22:24 |
| dn4_ | ok my alt+ctrl+f7 is totalled | 22:24 |
| Titan8990 | lstarnes, wine ~/.wine/drive_c/Program\ Files/Warcraft\ III/Frozen\ Throne.exe | 22:25 |
| computa_mike | mgolisch: oh - and I agree - .net totally does suck ... but the company I work for are still using VB5, and they think that VB.NET will be a smoother transition... | 22:25 |
| dn4_ | I just tried to run wine in a terminal | 22:25 |
| rascal999 | will the i386 iso of ubuntu server work on virtualbox i686? | 22:25 |
| Titan8990 | lstarnes, C:\ is not a directory | 22:25 |
| lstarnes | rascal999: it shou;d | 22:25 |
| lstarnes | *should | 22:25 |
| mgolisch | computa_mike: hm dotnet rocks, but all vb languages sucks due to their weird syntax | 22:25 |
| Titan8990 | lstarnes, above is the full path to wine's C:\ drive | 22:25 |
| mgolisch | :) | 22:26 |
| computa_mike | mgolisch: to fill you in further : no VBNC in the repositories. | 22:26 |
| mgolisch | computa_mike: it is for me, in the universe repo | 22:26 |
| mgolisch | in jaunty atleast | 22:26 |
| Soul_Shadow | why don't you just install xp as a secondary save u dys of greif | 22:26 |
| Titan8990 | rascal999, i686 machines can handle 386 and 486 | 22:26 |
| Soul_Shadow | days* | 22:26 |
| rascal999 | lstarnes: ok, for some reason ubuntu.com gave me the amd64 iso. I should read url links | 22:26 |
| faryshta | How can I see rm videos? | 22:26 |
| jonaskoelker | faryshta: rm? | 22:26 |
| Soul_Shadow | bbs | 22:26 |
| rumpel | realplayer | 22:26 |
| jonaskoelker | ah | 22:26 |
| faryshta | .rm (real media). | 22:27 |
| jonaskoelker | mplayer? | 22:27 |
| ihasn | anyone know about postfix? | 22:27 |
| mgolisch | computa_mike: maybe its named differently before, or they use some old mono version where the vb.net part wasnt developed by an external party | 22:27 |
| computa_mike | mgolisch: I'm still in Ibex... I'll make sure Universe is enabled... Sorry I tool so long getting back... At least I know that the reason it won't compile is : there is no compiler... Sort of a matrix style "there is no spoon" thing going on. | 22:27 |

| computa_mike | mgolisch: Personally - iprefer C# anyday. | 22:27 |
| jonaskoelker | faryshta: got a link to an .rm file? | 22:27 |
| faryshta | jonaskoelker, well I am using mplayer but only reads .rmvb videos (not .rm) | 22:27 |

| computa_mike | lstarnes: I thought build essentials was for proper c build environments, and not mono? | 22:28 |
| lstarnes | computa_mike: for c | 22:28 |
| ablert | but - I'm not sure what this line should read => Pin: release o=?? | 22:28 |
| Shivam | how can i post a video on a vbulletin forum thread? | 22:28 |
| lstarnes | computa_mike: what about mcs and gmcs? | 22:28 |
| === Crash|hd is now known as Crash1hd | ||
| faryshta | jonaskoelker, yes but is a porno.... :) let me find one descent video. | 22:29 |
| jonaskoelker | faryshta: nvm | 22:29 |
| computa_mike | lstarnes: i'll have a look... | 22:29 |
| mgolisch | its c# | 22:29 |
| jonaskoelker | faryshta: unless you're afraid some stranger on the internet is going to learn what kind of sick porno you like looking at... | 22:29 |
| jonaskoelker | ;) | 22:29 |
| Titan8990 | computa_mike, build essentials also contains things needed for all compiled binaries such as gnu make | 22:29 |
| Titan8990 | computa_mike, aside from gcc/g++ | 22:29 |
| computa_mike | lstarnes: i have them tagged for install but they don't support vb.net... | 22:30 |
| faryshta | jajaja jonaskoelker ok let me find the link. Will send it to you by PM. | 22:30 |
| jonaskoelker | :D | 22:30 |
| mgolisch | computa_mike: you might need to search for newer mono packages or maybe just build mono and related stuff from source | 22:31 |
| [biabia] | does linux have a built in program to save a text file as a pdf | 22:31 |
| computa_mike | lstarnes: As an asside, mgolisch said that s/he could see the mono-vbnc (which I think will be the compiler for vb.net) on the universe repository. Is there some way I can check what repositories I have enabled? | 22:31 |
| mgolisch | shouldnt be too hard | 22:31 |
| lstarnes | computa_mike: graphically, or via the terminal? | 22:31 |
| mgolisch | computa_mike: i checked on packages.ubuntu.com, intrepid doenst seem to have that | 22:31 |
| rumpel | [biabia], try to print it into a pdf... | 22:32 |
| computa_mike | mgolisch: I am planning to upgrade to Jaunty - so that should (in theory) solve that problem | 22:32 |
| ablert | if anyone wants the answer: turns out, if you want to pin a repo (say a ppa repo) the preferences line is: Pin: release o=LL-PPA-$ppa_id (you can find your $ppa_id in /ppa/ubuntu/dists/hardy/Release | 22:32 |
| mgolisch | computa_mike: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mono/+bug/129524 | 22:32 |
| jonaskoelker | ;) | 22:32 |
| [biabia] | rumpel thanks i'll try that | 22:32 |
| Slart | [biabia]: I think there is a ascii2pdf ... not sure if it's installed by default though | 22:33 |
| Espasmodico | niggers | 22:34 |
| computa_mike | mgolisch: Infact I feel rather bad for not upgrading almost instantly - I upgrade my brother's laptop from windows to Ibex, and he had upgraded himself all on his own without me having to prompt him. Can I upgrade from the live CD? If I boot from the live CD and install will it wreck my current install, or is it just best to let it dist-upgrade? | 22:34 |
| tom_de_tom | anyone know any install which puts a graph on the menu or like a side bar that shows cp usuage etc? | 22:35 |
| neoteny | got this zen media player. when i plug it in rythmbox fires up and nautilus shows it's mounted. but from the command line i can cd to where nautilius say it is: gphoto2://[usb:001,004]/ what's the magic involved in cding there? | 22:35 |
| tom_de_tom | bit like system monitor but in a bar or near the clock in ubuntu | 22:35 |
| mgolisch | computa_mike: i think you can only upgrade using the alternatecd but i might be wrong | 22:35 |
| Mew-Chan | i installed an eggdrop on a remote server, can i install ftp via aptitude to access those files (and if so how would do i do that) a lot of FTP results show up when i search for FTP | 22:35 |
| kkrusty | is there a different "development version of the python package" than what is available by default in jaunty? | 22:35 |
| mgolisch | computa_mike: but maybe you can use the livecd as a installation source too | 22:35 |
| Dr_Willis | tom_de_tom: theres numerous monitoring tools like that, conky is one, gkrellm is another. | 22:35 |
| mgolisch | never tried that, i allways reinstall | 22:35 |
| hardcockoncam | ZBEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE | 22:35 |
| tom_de_tom | Dr_Willis: cheers | 22:35 |
| Dr_Willis | tom_de_tom: proberly otehrs - check the package manager | 22:35 |
| computa_mike | mgolisch: an interesting idea - I'll try it. | 22:36 |
| lupine_85 | Mew-Chan, proftpd or pureftpd for the daemon, set it up to serve wherever the eggdrop is | 22:36 |
| lupine_85 | personally, I'd just use sftp | 22:36 |
| lupine_85 | if you've got ssh working, it "just works" too | 22:36 |
| faryshta | jonaskoelker, link sended. | 22:36 |
| V0iD__ | could anyone tell me how to set gparted to use ext4 on hardy ! | 22:37 |
| subspider | how do i know if my graphic card is installed?? | 22:37 |
| hardcockoncam | HI | 22:37 |
| computa_mike | mgolisch: thanks for all the help - I just popped over to the pidgin forum becuase I was having such a terrible time trying to type users names, and they clued me in on the Tab auto complete function. I feel like I've taken my first steps into a a larger world. | 22:37 |
| pronik` | hello, has anyone experienced system stalling for a couple of minutes on jaunty? | 22:37 |
| pepperjack | subspider: what card? nvidia or ati or intel? | 22:37 |
| subspider | intel | 22:37 |
| pepperjack | pronik`: id investigate turning off indexing maybe | 22:37 |
| pronik` | it's happening every so often (four times this evening) | 22:37 |
| Slart | V0iD__: for some filesystems you have to install a package before they show up in gparted.. ntfstools for ntfs support is one such example | 22:38 |
| jonaskoelker | faryshta: downloading... | 22:38 |
| mgolisch | computa_mike: hehe | 22:38 |
| seventje | pepperjack: can query you ? things are going from bad to worse :p | 22:38 |
| lupine_85 | pronik`, anything in dmesg ? | 22:38 |
| hmaader | pronik`: you could run top and "vmstat 1" while its stalling | 22:38 |
| pronik` | pepperjack: I doubt it's the indexing (it's disabled anyway AFAIK) since overloading would cause the beep to hang for example | 22:38 |
| pepperjack | subspider: lsmod command in terminal see if intel module shows up. you can also just run glxgears and see if it runs ok | 22:38 |
| V0iD__ | Slart: I know but cant I get a package from jaunty | 22:38 |
| pronik` | it seems connected to the disk activity somehow -- all disk reading/writing stall in that time too | 22:38 |
| subspider | ok thnks | 22:38 |
| faryshta | Soo... anyone else have information why .rmvb videos work but .rm videos doesn't? | 22:39 |
| pronik` | lupine_85: nothign in dmesg | 22:39 |
| pronik` | hmaader: I'll try that, can't be long till it hangs again | 22:39 |
| Dr_Willis | pronik`: next time it happens check the output of the 'dmesg' command its possible a hard drive is going out. | 22:39 |
| lupine_85 | probably not I/O stalling then | 22:39 |
| computa_mike | pronik`: are you running etx3 or ext4? | 22:39 |
| pronik` | ext3 | 22:39 |
| jonaskoelker | When I close my laptop, the external monitor (my tv) turns off. How do I make it stop turning off? | 22:39 |
| Slart | V0iD__: in jaunty efs2progs handles ext2/3/4 .. not sure if that's what is needed for gparted | 22:39 |
| lupine_85 | hardy won't have support in the kernel, amirite? | 22:39 |
| pronik` | I'll try the vmstat stuff for now, thanks guys | 22:39 |

| seventje | Slart: okay, but I still have to be able to boot into ubuntu without using a cdrom, else I cannot write to a cd right? | 22:41 |

| Dr_Willis | frindly: i dont see why it would. ext3 dosent need more ram then ext2 from what ive seen | 22:52 |
| lupine_85 | I'd say xubuntu is still pushing it a bit | 22:52 |
| Gnome_killa | only thing I know runs that low is the old 1 & 2.0 ubuntu | 22:52 |

| YiamiYo | can anyone help me here? | 22:52 |
| Crash1hd | sure I know that 1000gb != 1000 GB but I didnt think it would take 69gb away | 22:52 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Gnome_killa HE was told minimal. If he wants to know what others might work.. He is in the wrong channel | 22:52 |
| Gnome_killa | oh lol | 22:53 |
| pepperjack | xubuntu doesnt give you a great advantage to gnome as far as the de goes but the included apps like text editor etc are a little lighter | 22:53 |
| roy_hobbs | Will OO.o 3.1 come to Jaunty or will we have to wait until Karmic? In general, where can I look up information like this? | 22:53 |
| Dr_Willis | Fare: i dident find the UNR interface slow on my Aceraspireone. SOme others have had issues with the intel drivers making things slower. | 22:53 |
| histo | frindly: if you odn't need a gui then just install a command line based system with the mini iso | 22:53 |
| lupine_85 | Crash1hd, it takes 24 bytes in every thosand | 22:53 |
| lupine_85 | I lost 40GB in 500GB so it seems reasonably | 22:53 |
| Crash1hd | geeze | 22:53 |
| Fare | Dr_Willis: it's unbearably slow on this EeePC 701 | 22:53 |
| Crash1hd | ok but where did my install go lol | 22:53 |
| darksk1ez | /var/lib/gconf/defaults/%gconf-tree.xml seems corrupted, how can i regenerate it | 22:53 |
| Dr_Willis | Fare: check the wiki/forums for any info/tips | 22:53 |
| Gnome_killa | you can run the new ubuntu in command line interface mode actually as long as u do not try run the graphic side | 22:53 |
| Jack_Sparrow | !eee | 22:53 |
| ubottu | Information about installing Ubuntu on an Asus EeePC can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EeePC | 22:53 |

| lupine_85 | Crash1hd, sounds like the partition table is gone | 22:55 |
| Gnome_killa | yes your partition was baked u can use the linux cd to check your partitions | 22:55 |
| Crash1hd | very odd for sure (going to run a partition recovery tool) at first I thought that the system couldnt see the drive lol | 22:55 |
| Fare | pepperjack, yes, it's x86 | 22:55 |
| finiteset | does anyone know how to burn .img files to a CD? | 22:55 |
| Gnome_killa | just run the linux from the cd not install | 22:55 |
| ubuntunoobneedin | I have tried that tutorial it seems to be alittle above my knowledge level | 22:55 |
| Fare | and it's for my gf | 22:55 |
| Jack_Sparrow | !img | 22:55 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about img | 22:55 |
| Jack_Sparrow | !burn | 22:56 |
| ubottu | CD/DVD Burning software: K3b (KDE), gnomebaker, brasero, serpentine, graveman, Nautilus-CD-Burner, GToaster, xcdroast (GNOME), wodim (terminal-based). Burning .iso files: see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BurningIsoHowto | 22:56 |
| darksk1ez | ahh, gconf-schemas --register-all | 22:56 |
| Mew-Chan | how do i set local LC_ALL and Language (not lang) | 22:56 |
| Crash1hd | Gnome_killa: I did and gparted says that its all unpartitioned empty | 22:56 |
| lupine_85 | Mew-Chan, export LC_ALL='blah' | 22:56 |
| Jack_Sparrow | !iso | 22:56 |
| ubottu | To mount an ISO disc image, type « sudo mount -o loop <ISO-filename> <mountpoint> » - There is a list of useful cd image conversion tools at http://wiki.linuxquestions.org/wiki/CD_Image_Conversion - Always verify the ISO using !MD5 before !burning. | 22:56 |
| ubuntunoobneedin | can anyone help get my wifi working | 22:56 |
| YiamiYo | guys...need help asap here!!! | 22:56 |
| Mew-Chan | lupine_85: what should i put for blah :) | 22:56 |
| Gnome_killa | wel crash your partition is gone, uumm u can find erd commander & burn a copy & can use it to possibly recover teh lost data | 22:56 |
| Jack_Sparrow | !helpme > YiamiYo | 22:56 |
| ubottu | YiamiYo, please see my private message | 22:56 |
| Fare | Dr_Willis, where are the forums/wiki? | 22:56 |
| lupine_85 | whatever you want to change it to, of course - e.g. en_GB.UTF-8 | 22:56 |
| Gnome_killa | but that would take a long time depending how big the HD & amount of info | 22:57 |
| Edico | there is an ubuntu irc channel where can I get support for a virtualbox configuration? | 22:57 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Edico #vbox | 22:57 |
| Crash1hd | Gnome_killa: I have a program called resqdisk supposed to do that (havnt used it in years gonna give it a try :) ) | 22:57 |
| histo | Edico: not necessarily a ubuntu one but a virtual box one is #vbox | 22:57 |
| Dr_Willis | Fare: check the ubuntu.com site or google for ubuntu forums | 22:58 |
| Crash1hd | If all else fails I will just reinstall lol | 22:58 |
| lupine_85 | apt-get remove virtualbox ; apt-get install kvm ;) | 22:58 |
| jawall | setting up bind and wondering what "realm" is in the smb.conf file... | 22:58 |
| jawall | is that the domain? | 22:58 |
| Gnome_killa | GL with that crash | 22:58 |
| ubuntunoobneedin | is there a broadcom room | 22:58 |
| finiteset | I want to test moblin and I cannot find any burner to burn .img files on Linux....the other option is to byte-copy .img file to a USB drive which I don't know how | 22:58 |
| Edico | Jack_Sparrow, histo I was there before and I found the most unwilling to help community in my life | 22:58 |
| Dr_Willis | finiteset: k3b can burn img.. its sort of odd that a linux disrto would use .img | 22:58 |
| lupine_85 | finiteset, k3b ftw | 22:59 |
| Dr_Willis | finiteset: or is it for a Thumbdrive? if so.. just use 'dd' if its a usb drive image. | 22:59 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Edico They have always been helpful when I asked a well thought out question | 22:59 |
| Crash1hd | yep its not a fun program thats for sure but it sure saved my but in the past :) but this time its not that big of a deal since well I didnt have any data on the drive. | 22:59 |
| l7 | why does a folder called "rules" keep showing up on my desktop? | 22:59 |
| l7 | there's a 0 byte filed called fieldRules.txt inside it | 23:00 |
| finiteset | Dr_Willis: It says it can be copied to a CD or a Thumbdrive... | 23:00 |
| Crash1hd | But the annoying part is that its all because windows wouldnt boot (kept giving me a blue screen something about unmountable boot volume soo odd | 23:00 |
| Edico | Jack_Sparrow, I asked them many well thought questions and ... nothing | 23:00 |
| lupine_85 | sounds more like a symptom than a cause | 23:00 |
| Dr_Willis | finiteset: that would be weird.. does it say that FILE can be on eoither one.. or are they saying they have .img AND .iso images avail... | 23:01 |
| Gnome_killa | crash your hard drive is probalby destroyed | 23:01 |
| Dr_Willis | finiteset: its easy to get a .img to a thumbdrive. | 23:01 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Edico That is the place to go for support, if you dont like their support consider another product | 23:01 |
| lupine_85 | ...like KVM ;) | 23:01 |
| Crash1hd | Gnome_killa: what do you mean? | 23:01 |
| Crash1hd | Gnome_killa: its brand new | 23:01 |
| Gnome_killa | re-do the entier partition using erd comander with erd commander u can delete the mbr & als ore-do the partition | 23:01 |
| Edico | Jack_Sparrow, thank you I haven't thought at that | 23:01 |
| Gnome_killa | that might fix it | 23:01 |
| finiteset | Dr_Willis: they just have a .img file which can be byte-copied to a USB drive or burnt on a CD | 23:02 |
| Gnome_killa | well does it detect in ur bios? | 23:02 |
| === default is now known as bootui | ||
| Dr_Willis | finiteset: thats a neat trick. try k3b i guess.. rename it to .iso perhaps. | 23:02 |
| Crash1hd | Gnome_killa: yes | 23:02 |
| Gnome_killa | what does your bios say about hte HD type & size? | 23:02 |
| * lupine_85 is using k3b right now :) | 23:02 | |
| Crash1hd | Gnome_killa: that comes up correct | 23:02 |
| bootui | i have a hp cp1518ni printer and when i go to print a document the color is all wrong- what is wrong? | 23:02 |
| Gnome_killa | look at he HD & see if it matches the size | 23:02 |
| lupine_85 | <3 <3 | 23:02 |
| jdu | l7, some program must be creating it. try: lsof | grep fieldRules.tx to see if a program is using it and what its process id is. | 23:02 |
| TuGa | hello ppl | 23:03 |
| Crash1hd | Gnome_killa: nah I think I just somehow screwed up the partitions | 23:03 |
| Gnome_killa | ok do you have a normal program for partitioning a HD aka Dos 6.22 | 23:03 |
| Gnome_killa | u might have to use a normal partitioner liek dos to re-do the MBR | 23:03 |
| TuGa | i'm on a ubuntu9 64bit and what to play swf files but the add-on on firefox dont let me play them. | 23:03 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Gnome_killa why not gparted live? | 23:03 |
| seventje | any grub guru's around ? I want to reinstall the bootmanager to be able to boot into windows, grub-install /dev/sda1 gives error : Could not find device for /boot: Not found or not a block device. | 23:03 |
| TuGa | any ideia for a prog? | 23:03 |
| TuGa | app? | 23:03 |

| Zyrion | For some reason I cannot remove postgresq2l 8.3 | 23:03 |

| Zyrion | postgresql 8.3 even | 23:04 |
| lupine_85 | neither does DOS. GRUB does tgat | 23:04 |
| Gnome_killa | right lupin I only had this problem befoer with new HD & fixed it using fdisk /mbr | 23:04 |
| lupine_85 | or LILO, or whatever windows does | 23:04 |
| sidewalk | !990 | 23:04 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about 990 | 23:04 |

| Zyrion | !postgresql | 23:04 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about postgresql | 23:04 |
| lupine_85 | yoj mean you didn't have a bootloader installed. good stuff | 23:04 |
| lupine_85 | mbr != partition table | 23:05 |
| Gnome_killa | do not worry about the partition just do fdisk /mbr tehn fdisk & delete all partitions | 23:05 |
| Gnome_killa | then try install your os | 23:05 |
| lupine_85 | *sigh* | 23:05 |
| Jack_Sparrow | seventje I was just heading out, someone will be by to help | 23:05 |

| mattycoze | hey guys i'm trying to set up an FTP session atm but i'm having no luck; I'm using vsftp as the server and gFTP as the client | 23:07 |
| sebsebseb | Tetracomm: hi | 23:07 |
| Gnome_killa | Lupine I fixed my problems with same advice your wrong & ignored, have a nice day | 23:07 |
| zakidine | and i only use Azerty.. | 23:07 |
| ikonia | mattycoze: test it by ftp'ing to localhost | 23:07 |
| Tetracomm | When using modprobe, typing modprobe modulename will only load, it, and not do anything else, right? | 23:07 |
| Gnome_killa | u still here crash? | 23:07 |
| jdu | l7, of course if that displays nothing, it means no program is using it right now. Might also grep for rules. | 23:07 |
| mattycoze | ikonia you mean all on the same computer? | 23:07 |
| Tetracomm | Is there a command which I can use to tell me the model of a computer in the terminal? | 23:07 |
| ikonia | mattycoze: yup, | 23:07 |
| ubuntunoob | god i feel dumb.. thought it was file system->home.. haha.. and then figured i cant store shit in there lol | 23:07 |
| finiteset | Dr_Willis: renamed it to .iso and now its being burnt to a CD by brasero... hope it will work. | 23:07 |
| lupine_85 | kids these days | 23:08 |
| pepperjack | Tetracomm: see /proc you can for instance cat /proc/cpuinfo | 23:08 |
| jdu | Tetracomm, lshw tell that and much more | 23:08 |
| michalski-bj | SOMEONE ---> what do I have to do to get some attention here, yes your volunteers, I know, thank you, but noone ever answers my questions. How do I re-enable compiz fusion? | 23:08 |
| black_13 | on apache2 under under ubuntu who should own the web directories ? | 23:08 |
| ikonia | mattycoze: system->administration->desktop effects | 23:09 |
| ikonia | mattycoze: sorry - not you | 23:09 |
| mattycoze | lol sok | 23:09 |
| lupine_85 | black_13, www-data:www-data | 23:09 |
| ikonia | michalski-bj: system->administration->desktop effects | 23:09 |
| mattycoze | ikonia nah i can't for some reason i can't kick it into anonymous mode on the client | 23:09 |
| Crash1hd | still here :) | 23:09 |
| ikonia | mattycoze: pastebin your vsftpd.conf | 23:09 |
| michalski-bj | ikonia: thank you, greatly appreciated | 23:09 |
| jdu | michalski-bj, not that... I assume you have tried the graphical way by going to appearance> visual affects. | 23:09 |
| mattycoze | ikonia okay brb | 23:09 |
| maco | Tetracomm: sudo lshw | head | 23:09 |
| michalski-bj | jdu: yes | 23:09 |
| maco | Tetracomm: the first few lines will tell you the model and vendor | 23:10 |
| Gnome_killa | can you access ur HD with a dos based system? | 23:10 |
| mattycoze | http://pastebin.com/m5e5674cc | 23:10 |
| mattycoze | ikonia; http://pastebin.com/m5e5674cc | 23:10 |
| Tetracomm | Ok, thank you. What about my modprobe question? | 23:10 |
| finiteset | Dr_Willis: your idea worked.... good job.. thanks | 23:10 |
| Gnome_killa | only way to fix a partition error liek this is reset ur mbr I done this with HD's before & saved em | 23:10 |
| sebsebseb | Gnome_killa: maybe, but why would you want to and #windows would be a better channel for such a question I think | 23:10 |
| Caesi | hi all, can anyone help me with the desktop cube? for some reason, it's not working | 23:10 |
| jdu | michalski-bj, how did it stop working? | 23:10 |
| michalski-bj | jdu: it says "Desktop effects could not be enabled" | 23:10 |
| ikonia | mattycoze: ok - so open a terminal and lets work this through | 23:10 |
| sebsebseb | Gnome_killa: access the partitions on the system you meant? | 23:10 |
| Gnome_killa | seb he is trying to fix his HD | 23:10 |
| ikonia | mattycoze: are you comfortable working in a terminal ? | 23:10 |
| Gnome_killa | partition is damaged | 23:10 |
| jdu | michalski-bj, but it worked before? | 23:10 |
| mattycoze | yeah | 23:11 |
| Gnome_killa | yes | 23:11 |
| sebsebseb | mattycoze: have you tried Gparted? | 23:11 |
| ikonia | mattycoze: ok so in the terminal do "ftp localhost" just like that, exactly like that | 23:11 |
| Gnome_killa | only thing I know to re-do the mbr is dos & erd commander | 23:11 |

| acr0nym | ActionParsnip, I know that... that's my whole point | 23:34 |
| lupine_85 | except it mnight be intel, or vesa, or... | 23:34 |
| ikonia | mpontillo: correct | 23:34 |
| ikonia | oops | 23:34 |
| ikonia | _micah: correct | 23:34 |
| acr0nym | ActionParsnip, if I do that it will install all the other applications like openoffice and totem etc etc... and I don't want that | 23:34 |
| acr0nym | Just want the basic ubuntu gnome desktop without the programs | 23:35 |
| _micah | ikonia: I don't have that tool installed. | 23:35 |
| youbuntu41 | hi, on ubuntu startup i hear i sound like 'ta ta ta ta taa' and while playing mp3 or video i hear no sound.. what must i do ? someone told me to install some codecs but which ones | 23:35 |
| ActionParsnip | acr0nym: well it'll sort you out quick so you can write your essay, then remove what you dont need when you are less pressed for time | 23:35 |
| keith | lupine_85: I see glx, vgahw, nvidia, and intel among others | 23:35 |
| nimrod | avi files plays normal sound, but mp3 doesn't. Why is that? | 23:35 |
| ikonia | _micah: install it ? | 23:35 |
| Gnome_killa | acr0 try installing ubuntu then removing the crap u do not need using add remove | 23:35 |
| pepperjack | Jeeva: try installing openssh-server and using winscp to connect after you make sure port 22 is forwarded. OR try this ftp -p 192.168.2.1 or whatever ip. the -p is for passive | 23:36 |
| stanis_sh | Gnome_killa: http://paste.org.ru/?2fmnfj - here it is... | 23:36 |
| keith | nimrod: Do you have an mp3 codec installed? | 23:36 |
| expl01t3r | hi | 23:36 |
| pepperjack | Jeeva: make sure ports 20-21 are forwarded properly | 23:36 |
| nimrod | keith: i have gstreamer installed | 23:36 |
| Jeeva | pepperjack: okay i've just installed WINCP now, works fine | 23:36 |
| Jeeva | pepperjack: thanks, | 23:36 |
| pepperjack | Jeeva: active ftp requires other ports is the problem. np | 23:36 |
| ActionParsnip | Jeeva: if you install putty and xming, you can use x forwardingin windows | 23:36 |
| keith | nimrod: Ubuntu can't legally distribute mp3 support with the distro | 23:37 |
| Gnome_killa | ok did you try to re-install alsa using sudo apt-get install alsa* | 23:37 |
| _micah | ikonia: Okay its installed, how do I use it? | 23:37 |
| Gnome_killa | open a terminal & install using sudo apt-get install alsa* | 23:37 |
| Jeeva | just playing around with FTP, wanted to create a FTP upload dump, for peeps on my local network | 23:37 |
| nimrod | keith: so i must uninstall gstreamer and try another codec? | 23:37 |
| Amigadude | anyone know the yourbase & yoursize for the intel/mtrr fix on the aspire one | 23:37 |
| ikonia | _micah: cdrecord --help or man cdrecord will give you a quick overview | 23:37 |
| Gnome_killa | if that does not work do sudo apt-get update then sudo apt-get install alsa* | 23:37 |
| stanis_sh | Gnome_killa: I tryed. It says "E: Couldn't find package alsa-info.sh" | 23:38 |
| Amigadude | the description of how to find it is well vague | 23:38 |
| keith | nimrod: gstreamer is not a codec, read my personal message | 23:38 |
| Gnome_killa | use sudo apt-get update first | 23:38 |
| mattycoze | ikonia bah this whole thing is rooed. | 23:38 |
| stanis_sh | Gnome_killa: I did. | 23:38 |

| Gnome_killa | helping* | 23:40 |
| nimrod | keith, so if i rip my cd's as ogg or flac, then i get support? | 23:40 |
| lupine_85 | so, query - does radeonhd in jaunty support 3D yet? | 23:40 |
| grkblood13 | ok, ill be right here :) | 23:40 |
| meoblast001 | hi | 23:40 |
| Brando753 | guys im trying to connect a wacom Pen Partner to my laptop via serial and ps2 usb adapters, It powers on but the pc dosent recognize it ;( | 23:40 |
| fermulator | lupine_85: The open source Radeon is fairing pretty well, but RadeonHD is a little behind I believe | 23:40 |
| meoblast001 | i have a file i'm trying to encrypt.. i can't figure out the Passwords and Encryption keys dialog.. can anyone help? | 23:40 |
| keith | nimrod: You can install mp3 easily enough, it's just not there by default because of the legal issues. | 23:40 |
| keith | nimrod: That said, I usually prefer ogg, granted many media players don't support ogg | 23:41 |
| pik{ | how do i change the port to a irc server in irssi? | 23:41 |
| fermulator | Does anyone know where the "drawer" in the gnome panel stores it's files? | 23:41 |
| Elite | pik{: ask in #irssi | 23:41 |
| fermulator | pik{: use "-p ###" | 23:41 |
| nimrod | keith, ok. | 23:42 |
| lupine_85 | fermulator, ah, so no actual 3D yet :) | 23:42 |
| jrib | pik{: http://irssi.org/documentation/startup#c3 | 23:42 |
| pik{ | fermulator: like /server irc.lol.net -p 31337 ? | 23:42 |
| * lupine_85 will fglrx it for now | 23:42 | |
| pik{ | allready tryed that | 23:42 |
| lupine_85 | this one's not for me | 23:42 |
| keith | fermulator: I would guess in .gconf | 23:42 |
| MaT-dg | running 2 upnp servers (XMBC and vuze) on jaunty but they can't be discovered by other devices. XMBC doesn't even discover the local vuze server. Network (router) seems ok, WMP11 upnp server is discovered by other devices | 23:42 |
| sidewalk | how do i check which process is opening a certain port? | 23:43 |
| ayande | I need to access my /home/vmail/mails but I have no access, how can i get in? | 23:43 |
| vlad | what is gvfsd | 23:43 |
| sidewalk | netstat -natp doesn't show which process is opening the port | 23:43 |
| keith | fermulator: You might try making changes to it and then looking for recently changed files that look promising if nothing else. | 23:43 |
| ActionParsnip | sidewalk: netstat -a | 23:43 |
| fermulator | keith: and if it's from an 'unused system'? (i.e. it's an old ubuntu installation, and I have the partition mounted, just not sure where to find the files (figured they'd just be XML files somwhere...) | 23:43 |
| jrib | sidewalk: you can use fuser as well iirc | 23:43 |
| jrib | sidewalk: or lsof... | 23:43 |
| keith | fermulator: I know ~/.gconf/panel stores information on panel configuration | 23:43 |
| zimbres | ayande, did you try sudo? | 23:43 |
| sidewalk | what flags should i use? | 23:44 |
| keith | fermulator: I am just guessing. Not sure about the widget things. | 23:44 |
| ayande | sudo only? | 23:44 |
| mabus | I'm using an ubuntu system as a gateway to the internet, but whenevever the ammount of connections gets high I have to run iptables -F on it. How can I change these settings? | 23:44 |
| lupine_85 | ah, that's why I came here those several hours ago - my aforementioned ext4 mounted over nfs, on the client end, doesn't seem to be showing permissions correctly. I get a long string of numbers for owner:group | 23:44 |
| ayande | zimbres, should i only type sudo | 23:44 |
| _micah | ikonia: Okay I used "cdrecord -v dev=/dev/dvdrw myiso.iso" it did stuff but didn't actually seem to write to the disk. | 23:44 |
| fermulator | pik{: like: /connect irc.freenode.net 8000 | 23:44 |
| lupine_85 | I think I might be because I enabled POSIX ACLs on the server | 23:44 |
| lupine_85 | so my question is/was: how do I convince ubuntu to swallow that pill? | 23:44 |
| fermulator | keith: ok thanks, i'll just try fiddling then ;-0 | 23:44 |
| pik{ | fermulator: yeah i just found it. damn, so simple :P | 23:44 |

| lupine_85 | unoobtu, you need free space at the end of the partition - do you have that? | 23:46 |

| unoobtu | lupine_85: yes i do, however, it is on the other side of my ntfs partition like so; [UNALLOACATED][NTFS][LINUX] | 23:47 |
| ayande | zimbres no i dont, thats what it sais | 23:47 |
| Gnome_killa | hold on lemem look at my settings, what did u change? | 23:47 |
| keith | fermulator: You could use find, but I am not sure of the flags off hand. I tend to be lazy and using the GUI ubuntu gives you. | 23:47 |
| grkblood13 | who knows | 23:47 |
| lupine_85 | unoobtu, you can't expand your partition in a discontiguous manner | 23:47 |
| Gnome_killa | if u changes from asla to somthing back set back to asla | 23:47 |
| grkblood13 | i had sound last night though | 23:47 |

| lupine_85 | well | 23:48 |
| ayande | zimbres, sorry im a linux beginner | 23:48 |
| Dr_Willis | unoobtu: you could use windows 7 to 'resize' teh ntfs partition to take up the space on the left side.. then use it again to shrink it from the right side.. | 23:48 |
| keith | lupine_85: I don't have access to the computer right now. Just the flash drive and log files. | 23:49 |
| === dereine is now known as dereine[OFF] | ||
| lupine_85 | if you were feeling brave, you could use dd to move the partition data further along, then edit the partition table manually | 23:49 |

| ubottu | Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 23:49 |

| lupine_85 | I so don't recommend it | 23:49 |

| Elite | Can anyone help me? | 23:50 |
| lupine_85 | keith, to me it sounds like you should have had 3D acceleration in the second machine, but without having it up to debug, it's hard to do much | 23:50 |
| Dr_Willis | unoobtu: that sucks then. You can resize ntfs from linux, but yopu would have to grow it to the left.. then shrink it fromn the right... and that will take.. err... a long time. | 23:50 |
| zimbres | ayande, I think you should use a program to read it instead of read it directly | 23:51 |
| Dr_Willis | unoobtu: this is just a ntfs-data partition? or what exactly? | 23:51 |
| Gnea | !mysql | 23:51 |
| ubottu | LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP.
