[00:40] u can use nero in a windows pc to do it [00:40] AlexJCioffi: that makes no sence.. If you want to install ubuntu from the cd. You burn the iso image to the cd with the proper tools. [00:40] easyest way [00:40] !burn [00:40] 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 [00:40] or a linux system [00:40] Farrel: This isn't the channel for java programming support [00:40] theres easier tools then nero :) [00:40] any have another solution for maintaining a connection to a wireless router with cloaked ssid under ubuntu? i keep getting dropped. [00:40] lol [00:40] yep[ [00:40] lotz easier than nero [00:40] Dr_willis he is using mac & it will not burn proper & fedora same [00:41] nero is best prog out ther ppfft [00:41] so just the image, and ill burn it from my fedora comp [00:41] imgburn, burn at once. so on.. he should be able to burn it with fedora just fine. === _henrik is now known as pik} [00:41] !nero [00:41] Sorry, I don't know anything about nero [00:41] JUNK lol [00:41] oops [00:41] guess not [00:41] lol [00:41] @pasteeater is there a difference between the alternate cd and the minimal iso? [00:41] !alternate [00:41] 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 [00:41] !minimal [00:41] The Minimal CD image is very small in size, and it downloads most packages from the Internet during installation, allowing you to select only those you want (the installer is like the one on the !Alternate CD). See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD [00:41] sorry doc I been using nero & nothing on it ever failed for me [00:42] I belive ther is a linux version of nero also but its difficult to use [00:42] Gnome_killa: you were just ranting about making deals with MS... so you seem to be contridicting yourself.. but whtever.. for the simple task of burning a .iso file to a disk there are MUCH simpiler/cheaper/better tools then nero. [00:42] its funny that windoze has no problem with this but ubuntu does [00:42] dont get me started on my nero issues. :) [00:42] Dr He is using a mac fedora 10 [00:42] Gnome_killa, because it would slow down your computer and take an hour to load? [00:42] he cannot run installer for linux [00:42] Gnome_killa, and is pointless? [00:43] so he has no choice but to use a ms os to doit [00:43] no [00:43] If Fedora failes tehn use what does [00:43] i have a fedora computer [00:43] Gnome_killa: he should be able to use k3b or whatever linux tools to burn a iso file to a cd. [00:43] u have a mac & a fedora box right [00:43] yea [00:43] isorecord fast light and free [00:43] Does anyone know how to remove the shadows from icon descriptions in xubuntu? [00:44] did the burn in fedora work? [00:44] is there a difference between apt-get and aptitude? can I use both on the same server? [00:44] !apt-get > benc1 [00:44] benc1, please see my private message [00:44] what command can i use durring booting the kernel on the install cd to make bluetooth not load [00:44] u said u cannot get the cd to run [00:44] How can I modify the launchers in gnome menus? [00:44] !aptitude > benc1 [00:44] well i didnt know to just burn the image [00:45] padge, rt clk>properties [00:45] !wireless > apot [00:45] apot, please see my private message [00:45] alex did you try boting from the cd not load it from another os? [00:45] space_cadet: are they using the same local database for installed packages? if not it's impossible to mix them [00:45] what kernel argument disables bluetooth? [00:45] sysdoc, I have no such menu item. [00:46] padge, rt clk the launcher>props\ [00:46] benc1: apt and aptitude both query dpkg, which handles the .deb repository - so yes, they do the same thing, essentially [00:47] is there anything existing like ldconfig for headers? [00:47] Gnea: thanks. can I use apt-get update or should I use safe-upgrade and full-upgrade? [00:47] how do i get skype sound working in jaunty [00:47] benc1: well update just updates the repo lists, upgrade and dist-upgrade are the main selections [00:48] good night to everybody [00:48] Is it possible to install a modified version of Ubuntu from a modified liveCD, as in, install different things in the Ubuntu archives by default? [00:48] I know there are programs to mod Ubuntu livecds, but don't know if you can install from them. [00:48] ashbringer: that's what xubuntu, kubuntu and the other ubuntu-derivatives are- so yes [00:48] sysdoc, again, I have nothing like that. I have "Add this launcher to panel", "Add this launcher to desktop", "Entire menu >" [00:48] also, the whole lot's open source, so it should definitely be possible, although I have no idea if it's easy [00:48] Is there any Linux version of Dreamweaver or a similar program for Ubuntu? [00:49] ciao [00:49] Gnea: They have their own metapackages that they install and are not made using the usual modification programs [00:49] !list [00:49] This is not a file sharing channel (or network).

[00:50] benc1, steven_: cheers [00:50] is there a program for ubuntu where I can have a virtual cd or dvd to laod images? [00:50] Gnome_killa: Good god! It works! ;) [00:50] Can anyone help me? [00:51] !iso | dureyes [00:51] dureyes: To mount an ISO disc image, type « sudo mount -o loop » - 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. [00:51] i downloaded gparted and fsdisk and i cand find it in my dropdown menu [00:51] Dr_Willis: hi! I have free space next to my ubuntu partition. How do I expand ubuntu? [00:51] padge, sorry, addit to the panel then you'll see the properties. Or rt clk the menu> Edit menus. Then you'll see the properties for each launcher [00:51] superboy: fdisk is command line.. or just run 'gksu gparted' === UbuntuNewb1 is now known as Myth` [00:51] unoobtu: use gparted and tell it to resize the linux parittion. [00:51] superboy: ALT-F2, then type gparted then run it [00:52] How do I restart gconfd? [00:52] Dr_Willis: That's what I am trying to do, but to I extend the 'extended' partition? and when I right click ext3 "resize" is grayed out [00:52] ashbringer: if it's based-on ubuntu, it's a derivative. if I were you, I'd start with google, there's a lot of info out there: http://www.howtoforge.com/ubuntu-linux-mint-livecd-with-remastersys http://www.linuxtoday.com/news_story.php3?ltsn=2008-03-26-005-26-OS-DB-HL [00:52] you welcome [00:52] Jester_, ci sei? ti posso disturbare? [00:52] Dr_Willis: iso, and cue files as well. [00:52] sysdoc: That does the trick. Thanks! [00:52] Also, is there any way to install with dm_crypt and LUKS from the LiveCD? [00:52] unoobtu: Are you using gparted to try to resize a partition that you have mounted [00:52] padge, :) [00:52] ? [00:52] ghindo: yes [00:53] ubottu: thanks, would that work for cue file or bin? [00:53] Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) [00:53] Is this channel too general to ask about apache? [00:53] ghindo: You can't resize, delete, or manipulate partitions which you have mounted. Try using gparted from a LiveCD [00:53] padge: it depends on what the question is about... you're best off to ask and find out rather than asking to ask, which will get you nowhere :) [00:53] dureyes: the fuseiso tool can mount other image files also. [00:53] someone know this one?: Apache/2.2.11 (Ubuntu) PHP/5.2.6-3ubuntu4.1 with Suhosin-Patch Server at l_vagnozzi.privatepicz.com Port 80 [00:53] ghindo: there is a good recovery cd - that works on hd's without them being mounted [00:53] unoobtu: i always use primaries.. it may be you have to do some other step if they are extended/logical [00:53] ghindo: is there any other way?

[01:00] if he did nto click just download packages u mess up teh repositorys [01:01] ubottu: [01:01] superboy: a extended partition 'holds' logical parittions.. 'swap' is used when the system runs out of memory.

Like what kind of partitions or what filesystems are on those partiitions [01:01] how about if I wanted just to record / transcode everything that happens from the capture card, can some one recommend a package that is small and offers options for transcoding the source?

[02:20] Elite, yeah but by dial-up is it really 56k ? [02:20] [GNOME] Is it possible to make a taskbar item have a relative location instead of coordinates?

[02:22] hell I am gonna install windows lol [02:22] how large is your swap mgwalk? [02:23] mem is 2g and swap is 1.6 [02:23] Elite, you'd have to get into setting up lots of config files to share your connection ;) iptables for enabling NAT, installing a DHCP server - lots to it really. not for the faint-hearted === caplink811-log is now known as caplink811_log [02:23] mgwalk, Are you using a swap file or a swap partition?

[02:25] daftykins: not too worried about that ;) [02:25] Elite, ok, you'll need to get your dial-up connection working on the server first then [02:25] what happened was i used clonezilla to clone drive on another machine...i am now moving to this new machine with bigger hdd and more ram...so i need to double the size of swap to 4gb [02:26] What configuration file controls GNOME panels?

[02:28] mgwalk, Look at your fstab, or pastebin it [02:28] Does anyone know how to map my left trackpad button as a middle click? [02:29] abcminiuser: normally one can do a 'click left and right' to do a middle click. [02:29] mgwalk, that's funny - one of the philosophies on unix is that everything is a file... just saying. [02:29] daftykins: what? [02:29] Jordan_U, uuid=fffffadfk-blbl none swap sw [02:29] Dr_Willis: Thanks, but I hate that on my Aspire One; I'd prefer tap to be left, and the left button on its own to be middle [02:29] nevermind Elite nothing :) [02:30] Anybody here ever replace upstart with sysvinit? [02:30] mgwalk, Ok, it's a swap partition, so you will need to boot into a LiveCD to resize it with something like gparted ( which is available on the Ubuntu LiveCD ) [02:30] Jordan: Broadcom B43 has green "light". Below that: Broadcom B43 wireless driver; Tested by the Ubuntu developers; License: Free; fwcutter is a tool which can extract firmware from various source files.

[02:31] my update manager has been hanging for the last half hour, should I force quit? [02:31] Biophile, error messages? [02:31] durt, yes [02:31] stumped the best of them huh? [02:32] How do I turn off my splash screen? [02:32] Biophile, and? [02:32] Jordan_U, so how do i do that with LVM...i booted into gparted and was trying to resize but it wouldn't let me take from the lvm and add to swap [02:32] So that I can see the booting text. [02:32] abcminiuser: actually i think the 'archlinux' wiki pages on the AAO. showed some way to do a 2 finger tap as a middle click.. or somthing like that. [02:32] mgwalk, I don't know, I haven't worked with LVM :( [02:32] abcminiuser: they had a lot of tips/tweaks for the touch pad there I think.. or at some other AAO wiki page i saw the other day [02:32] I should have written them down, eh? [02:32] hi guys, i have a sony camcorder attached via firewire to my laptop. how do i get it to work? [02:33] Dr_Willis: Will have a look - I saw the Ubuntu wiki page for it, but that didn't help... [02:33] Biophile, would have been useful, you don't want to redo it and have the same thing happen [02:33] mgwalk, Though you should be able to make another swap partition within LVM [02:33] Tetracomm, Temporarily or permanently? [02:34] abcminiuser: yea. some where i saw a site that showed a LOT of neat things you could tweak on the touchpad. had to be archlinux, thats what i was using on my AAO till last week [02:34] wwhat do i do to install times new roman? [02:34] How do I "full format" an SD card? [02:34] jimi_hendrix, install the package msttcorefonts [02:35] Jordan_U: Permanently. [02:35] Dr_Willis: Hmm, looks like it only offers mapping super to middle click, not quite what I want (especially since I remapped super so I could use "Win+L" to lock my machine like on Windows) [02:35] jimi_hendrix, should have a default times new roman, as Jordan_U said that package has microsoft fonts [02:35] hi all... i'm trying to install ubuntu via a network boot... this page >> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/LocalNet#Set%20up%20the%20servers << says something about a wrapper for starting bootp how do i do it? what is a wrapper? do i save the text as file and use it as an executable? [02:35] durt, so what should I do? [02:35] rooibos: You can use mkdosfs to FAT format it on the terminal [02:35] Biophile, is your internet connection to that machine alive and working? [02:36] what is the point of LVM...and why should i use it... [02:36] durt, ... yes the problem is on the computer I'm using now [02:37] it seems i have ran into nothing but problems with it..as nothing supports it..partimage and so on...gparted [02:37] Biophile, have you stopped it yet?

[02:37] this is the boot script: http://dpaste.com/41995/ [02:38] Biophile, should be some arrows you can click 'for more information', can you read the error messages, or any other messages? [02:38] Tetracomm, Open your /boot/grub/menu.lst ( "gksudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst ) and look for the line "# defoptions=quiet splash" just remove the word splash, and quiet if you want a lot of text ( do NOT remove the comment at the beginning of the line ) then run "sudo update-grub" [02:39] abcminuser: thanks. will mkdosfs zero out the data? [02:40] durt, no, the window has a grey hue, if I hover over it I just see the 'working' cursor. [02:40] rooibos: No, you'd need to dd the drive for that [02:40] rooibos: dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/ bs=32k [02:40] Make sure you point it to the correct drive! [02:40] Biophile, how many updates were there? [02:40] I have an interesting problem === jaco1 is now known as jacob_f [02:41] Ok, thank you Jordan_U. :) [02:41] 17 === Nakjeido2 is now known as TimothyA [02:41] Tetracomm, np :) [02:41] hi I'm having problems with 9.04 install disc. when I select Install Ubuntu from boot menu I am brought to a black screen with a blinking cursor.

[02:42] brotherhand To get live cd to run this often helps..At start or install press F4 and select safe graphics mode then press F6 and remove Quiet and Splash from the command line. If it still fails.. Repeat and after removing quiet and splash add noapic acpi=off before the "--" === jacob_f is now known as jpf [02:42] it's not a prompt, just a blinking cursor === jpf is now known as jacobs [02:43] live CD brings me to a black screen with NO cursor or anything [02:43] brother hand on the install screen press F4 then select install in safe graphic mode then try to install again === jacobs is now known as jacobson [02:43] brotherhand To get live cd to run this often helps..At start or install press F4 and select safe graphics mode then press F6 and remove Quiet and Splash from the command line.

[02:43] right === savory_snax is now known as true_gamer2000 [02:44] durt, yes === true_gamer2000 is now known as R_Hunter [02:44] does anyone have a good page to view screenshots of different windows managers ?i was looking at thecodingstudio but those are kind of basic [02:44] Biophile, come to think of it, is there a dialog windows that's got lost somewhere that update manager is waiting for/ [02:45] finally a name that's not taken. [02:45] anyway I need some assistence [02:45] durt, I can't find any, no.

I had tried updated sata drivers but not video drivers. thing is, it even froze on the vista setup screen once. [02:51] it`s first time i install ubuntu [02:51] durt, oh, ok [02:51] TopBunny88: Stop spamming please [02:51] cgkades: it means concatenate your lines, be as specific as you can in a single line so as not to create excess channel flood [02:51] how to install programs [02:51] Jack_Sparrow, you have any probs with hibernation in 9.04? [02:51] khg Package manager, apt-get or synaptic [02:51] hello [02:51] khg: which program?

[02:52] !applications : [02:52] Sorry, I don't know anything about applications : [02:52] Also any other ubuntu information on touchscreen usage would be lovely [02:52] space_cadet: The acpi as Jack_Sparrow said [02:52] Cyc: because . is not part of the PATH environment variable [02:52] hey guys... i have an ubuntu 9 server with 3 network interfaces... one internal, 2 external on different isps. i can ping default gateway from both, however, from an external server elsewhere on the net, i can only ping the first one, which has a "gateway" line in /etc/network/interfaces. when i add a gateway to the second one, i can ping both, but then all my traffic goes thru the second. ideas? [02:52] Cyc: so that it knows where its at, otherwise it looks in your $PATH to execute files [02:52] Jack_Sparrow, where should i start looking if my machine stalls at hibernation ... i.e. it does not go INTO hibernation [02:52] !packagemanagement | khg [02:52] Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) [02:52] Cyc: for that reason, you need an absolute or relative path [02:52] ok thank you [02:52] it was my understanding that a default gateway didnt affect incoming connections at all [02:52] usser [02:53] Cyc, it's like saying; execute from here [02:53] hi all... i'm trying to install ubuntu via a network boot... this page >> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/LocalNet#Set%20up%20the%20servers << says something about a wrapper for starting bootp how do i do it? what is a wrapper? do i save the text as file and use it as an executable? [02:53] space_cadet I hate to even say this , but I would google ubuntu and your laptop make model and or video chipset [02:53] rofl [02:53] Cyc, the period "." represents here or current directory [02:53] Cyc: a neat trick is to add ./ to your $PATH, then you can just type the name of the executable file if its in the directory youre looking at [02:53] Jack_Sparrow, well i tried, but will try again :) [02:53] Apaxis, that's dangerous though [02:53] Apaxis, Cyc: no. That's a bad idea. [02:54] durt, so, how do I find if update's still downloading? [02:54] E: Couldn`t find package ????? [02:54] why? [02:54] give me an example of where it could be dangerous lol [02:54] i cant think of one [02:54] he. It seems qt4.5.1 is free of that artifact bug on qt apps in 9.04. Now I just added the karmic repositories in apt and configured synaptic to prefer packages from jaunty on any updates but it seems it won't care about it. I'm proposed to upgrade nearly all my system to karmic, any reason for that? [02:54] Flannel, its fine as long as its at after /bin /usr/bin, ie at the end. that was my understanding anyway [02:54] Evening, I have a 22" LCD that I have hooked to an Nvidia GeForce FX 5200.

[02:55] abcminiuser: thanks. [02:56] Apaxis: arent sudo and fake root one in the same? [02:56] TopBunny88 no [02:56] id be more cncerned with being remotely exploited than a silly thing like having . in your PATH (but then again i know a lot of people who are into low-level security) [02:56] dirt, other people are on this network, the lights are always blinking. what am I looking for in netstat?

I have 9.04 already installed. lspci tells me that i have an nvidia "mcp55" controller, which, afiak is just a southbridge chipset. can i get more detailed info anywhere in a vanilla install or with a package from the repos? [02:58] Biophile, connections to canonical or to your country's archive [02:58] hi all... could someone tell me what a wrapper from a command line does? how to use it?

[02:58] jpedroza: the restart x (if your on 9.04, you'll have to press: ctrl-alt-f1, then type: killall -9 gdm (or kdm), then sudo gdm (or kdm) [02:58] TopBunny88: if you want to know more about a chroot'ed environment try man 5 (i think) chroot (thats man 5 chroot) [02:58] rooibos, 5-10 minutes [02:58] help me. [02:59] i know, odd #ubuntu question, but there you go. [02:59] Will do Apaxis [02:59] Crash1hd: Well, the full scan should recover it *IF* you haven't written anything else to disk [02:59] jpedroza: (note, I didn't take care to look at your xorg (sorry but I'm a little busy reading something else) [02:59] !details > JSSmith [02:59] JSSmith, please see my private message [02:59] TopBunny88: nope nevermind, that one isnt there, what youre looking for is the man page for the C programming definition of chroot it should be in section 5 but i dont see it anyway it s more descriptive about what it actually does [02:59] strav, right-alt+printscr+k is the new ctrl-alt-backspace [02:59] abcminiuser: and yet when I used the basic restore with TestDisk it gave back all partitions but the 3 linux partitions are indicating that e2lavel" no such file or directory while trying to open /dev/sda2 ect... [03:00] brb [03:00] works better than logging into a vtty [03:00] jpedroza: besides, you could always try to set the virtual resolution but it seems kinda broken on 9.04 (at least for the intel driver) [03:00] Crash1hd: Sounds like the hd is knackered... [03:00] abcminiuser: yeah that may be the problem I tried an old program I had called res q disk to repair them and it did an ok job but I dont think it understood ext3 [03:00] so... no one can help me? [03:01] abcminiuser: thinking I am going to have to delete all partitions and start over [03:01] !patience [03:01] The people here are volunteers, your attitude should reflect that. Answers are not always available. See http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines [03:01] Crash1hd: if you used a different tool before that doesn't understand ext3, chances are it's ruined your restore chances [03:01] Luria: thanks, I didn't know. No chance of hitting that by error. [03:01] I have an ntfs drive (shared between ubuntu 9.04 and windows XP) mounted in ubuntu but I cannot execute any binary files from it... they have permissions of 777 but claim to not be binary files... any ideas? [03:02] boss_mc: install wine [03:02] boss_mc: are they windows binaries? [03:02] linux binary files [03:02] thats weird [03:02] boss_mc Permissions on an ntfs drive ? and what kind of files [03:02] compiled just now with g++ [03:02] (actually, I was pretty frustrated thinking there were no other options for ctrl-alt-backspace, beside disabling the block in xorg) [03:02] abcminiuser: right well like I was saying not 100% sure but I am at 43% right now what it has indicated already though is (Warning: Incorrect number of heads/cylinder 16 (NTFS) != 255 (HD) [03:02] why is it that Exaile mediaplayer plays with normal sound, but not Rhythmbox?

[03:02] durt, hmm, all paths start with /tmp/ @/com/ or @/org/ [03:02] Strav, it can also be the undone with an xorg.conf setting, restoring the old shortcut. insta-zap or something [03:02] well, they're not really permissions cos ntfs doesn't support them [03:02] !NTFS | boss_mc [03:02] boss_mc: To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions - For write access, see !NTFS-3g or !FUSE [03:03] anyways, anyone can tell me why apt dosen't care about my update preferences (concerning which packages version it should prefer)? [03:03] Crash1hd I woould look at your bios setup [03:03] Hi, all. [03:03] durt, I don't see any 'canonicle's and I'm not sure what my country's archive is [03:03] Luria: yea this is what I did. [03:03] JSSmith: english is not your native language is it? [03:03] Strav What is in your sources list [03:03] ok guess I'll look for more drivers. I figured what came with Windows 7 would be the latest [03:03] Jack_Sparrow: what would I be looking for? [03:03] so, no one can tell me how to get in depth info on my sata chipset under ubuntu? [03:03] Biophile, if there's no tcp connections then update manager is defenitly not downloading anything, if there's no HD activity then update manger is not installing anyhting [03:04] or rather, sata controller [03:04] Crash1hd To see of ot os detected correctly [03:04] it is [03:04] Does anybody know which packages contain zlib.h and bzlib.h? I appear to be missing them when compiling. [03:04] Well a whole bunch of jaunty repos and some duplicates for karmic main and karmic universe [03:04] does ntfs-3g accept exec as an option? [03:04] EoL{s}: zlib? [03:04] Luria Not in the support channel no [03:04] Jack_Sparrow: you mean the hdd (it is.) :) [03:04] durt, oh, that's good to know, so I can force quit with no ill effects? [03:04] Apaxis: Yeah. [03:04] Luria: you can try playing in /proc [03:05] not much help here [03:05] Strav Are you running jsunty? [03:05] EoL{s}: no thats the name of the package, its called zLIB (apt-cache search zlib) [03:05] Oh. [03:05] EoL{s}: its a compression library [03:05] Luria: Usually something relevant will be in the results of: sudo lshw But theres a lot of stuff to sift through for it [03:05] Biophile, not what i'm saying, If update manager has somehow hung then the ill effects are already done. [03:05] durt, oh [03:05] EoL{s}: you might need libbzip or something like that, try apt-cache search'ing "bzip" too and look for a "lib" [03:05] yeah, ill look in there... but there's no good system profiler like pcwizard (i know about the reporting tool, its not helpful in my case) [03:05] EoL{s}: I think you want the zlib1g-dev package [03:05] thanks genii [03:06] mpontillo: thanks lol [03:06] Luria: np [03:06] is there anyway to have the network manager automatically connect to vpn networks upon startup? [03:06] I have mobo Intel, and Audio device is Intel Corporation 80801G (ICH7 Family), High Definition Audio Controller (rev 01), in Ubuntu 9.04. In gnome-alsamixer, I can't on in Capture.. [03:06] Jack_Sparrow: yep. I just wish to upgrade libqt and friends to the karmic verions (force the package version) [03:06] if anyone has any other thoughts, please /msg me, ive been trying to get this system up since december [03:06] Strav did you update after adding sources? [03:06] Luria What was the real quesation [03:07] ha [03:07] Jack_Sparrow - from before: ok, so im trying to install windows on a machine. it repeatedly crashes on install. I suspect a sata controller driver issue. I have 9.04 already installed. lspci tells me that i have an nvidia "mcp55" controller, which, afiak is just a southbridge chipset. can i get more detailed info anywhere in a vanilla install or with a package from the repos? [03:07] how to install adobe air app from the terminal? [03:07] thanks all, I'd forgotten to add 'exec' to the fstab line [03:07] Jack_Sparrow: of course. Shouldn't I? [03:07] durt, what should I do then? [03:07] !br [03:07] Por favor, use #ubuntu-br para ajuda em português. Obrigado. [03:07] Strav yes [03:07] !br > jssmith [03:07] jssmith, please see my private message [03:07] Luria: You may need a module like nv_sata or similar loaded [03:08] oops [03:08] oweb1 you don't [03:08] Jack_Sparrow: I think the issue all started when i booted into windows after installing ubuntu (which finished filling in the hdd) as windows was only detecting the first 120gigs of the drive (its was pre SP2) installed windows on the 20gigs rebooted installed ubuntu on the rest went to reboot and load windows and it blue screened with unmountable boot volume and the rest is history [03:08] ert3: why not? [03:08] owen1: becaue they didn't bother to make a comand line interface for air [03:08] Luria Not really.. [03:08] Luria: Actually I think the module name is the other way... sata_nv or so [03:08] ert3: i did it before. i just need to pass the appname as a paraemeter to the installed app. [03:08] Jack_Sparrow: you mean, since I ran the update before setting synaptic to prefer the jaunty version, it's now stuck with the packages marked to be upgraded to karmic? [03:09] ert3: i just can't remember the name/location for the app installer. [03:09] owen1: well then there you have your answer [03:09] Biophile, In short, kill update manager, remove the lock file and run 'sudo apt-get install -f' to fix any broken packages and then 'sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade' [03:09] ah [03:09] genii, why? ubuntu is fine, its windows thats b0rked. i just need detailed controller data from the southbridge... [03:09] owen1: locate air? [03:09] ert3: i'll try. thanks [03:09] i think sata_nv is already loaded [03:09] Strav Wait.. Are you using jaunty OS or just trying those repos.. that would be very bad [03:09] WEll my job here is done [03:09] Biophile, but only if your confortable doing that. [03:09] time to go masterbate [03:09] Cryptic_Donkey === TopBunny88 is now known as Cryptic_Donkey [03:10] Luria: Study the: sudo lshw results then, is my best suggestion. it's info overload but likely something you want in there [03:10] !omg | ert3 [03:10] ert3: Please don't use "LOL" and "OMG" and so forth on a regular basis. This is IRC, not IM, and using those lines on their own is not required, and it is rather annoying to the rest of the people in the channel; thanks. [03:10] oops [03:10] thanks much [03:10] anybody got some AGP video card recommendations for Ubuntu? [03:10] afk [03:10] smacfarl nvidia [03:11] alright so my notification area is gone and i have no option to add it back to the panel :) [03:11] smacfarl, where are you based? [03:11] smacfarl: I have an odl agp video card i cansend you [03:11] I cannot find anything online on how to fix this [03:11] am on the east coast why? [03:11] Jack_Sparrow: it's not the first time I would have forced an alien package into my installation. I'm just wondering why synaptic dosen't care about my package update preference coz if I ain't wrong, that'll be meat for a bug report. [03:11] peregrine81 You can add it back with panel properties [03:11] What happend to EasyUbuntu? [03:11] Anyone? [03:11] Drknezz: it was killed off thankfully [03:11] Drknezz: became useless. [03:12] so nvidia used to have some 7000 cards now everyone only seems to carry the 6000s. Suggestions? [03:12] smacfarl, if you're in britain, check out http://www.maplin.co.uk/Module.aspx?ModuleNo=221271 [03:12] it's sweet [03:12] Paddy_EIRE: Thankfully? [03:12] what do i need to change so my cds and dvds mount to /media/cdrom /media/dvd like they used to instead of ~/.gvfs ? [03:12] Drknezz It never worked right [03:12] Hey everyone [03:12] Drknezz: yes.. thankfully [03:12] my mv is messed up [03:12] how do I replace it? [03:12] smacfarl 6600 are my fav for generic [03:12] Jack_Sparrow: AFAIK, the only thing that didnt work right was Automatix [03:12] or where do I find it at first [03:12] smacfarl, ah, east coast... no can help, except to prove the cards do exist [03:12] Drknezz easy was a close second [03:12] peregrine81: rm -r ~/.gconf/apps/panel then restart gnome will reset to default panels [03:12] hey, the LVM and RAID support isn't showing up in Ubuntu 9.04s alternate debian-installer. [03:13] i was being tempted by HD 3850s at new egg. But All I see are horror stories. Tell me it's not that bad. [03:13] smacfarl, I just bought and installed one of them today, it's a massive upgrade from the ATI x1550 [03:13] Jack_Sparrow: How could a python script mess up your system? [03:13] smacfarl stay away from ati [03:13] ATI + linux = dodgy [03:13] Thanks for the help, guys. [03:13] Drknezz easy for a script to destroy a system [03:13] how do I replace my mv? [03:13] Is automatix still around or did it get killed [03:13] Cryptic_Donkey dead [03:14] \/win 6 [03:14] Jack_Sparrow: :/ Okay, i bet it's time to make a new automatix-like script that uses apt, and doesnt mess up with the system [03:14] BB [03:14] So I have an ati 7000ve currently in my agp slot which is what I want to upgrade from. boss_mc you put an hd 3850 in an agp slot and it worked under ubuntu? === wolf is now known as Guest50029 [03:14] hi [03:14] hi [03:14] smacfarl, no, I bought a nvidia 7300 [03:15] Cryptic_Donkey: i thnk its vailable for another distro, but not for ubuntu [03:15] nvidia 7300 just worked? [03:15] smacfarl, but the ati proprietary drivers are not too bad nowadays [03:15] yep:) [03:15] except they dropped support for my old card so it will never work in jaunty :( [03:15] Nvidia 7300 isnt a uberpowerful card but it should work fine. [03:15] hi all. I am helping mib reboot into the Ubuntu liveCD then use ext3grep to recover a deleted file. When he reboots, is there any chance that the liveCD will mount his hard drive rw, thereby making recovery chances worse? [03:15] hence new card [03:15] Thanks IndyGunFreak [03:15] i have a noobish question here, what is /host? [03:15] hi, I have a question about ALSA on my ubuntu... here's the alsa-project.org script output: http://www.alsa-project.org/db/?f=3bd0a7c2126345ae63e886e739501513f909c7b2 [03:16] it's running compiz on two screens with wobbly video [03:16] vimpulse: if it does, you can always remount it to ro [03:16] without complaining [03:16] syntax\: context? [03:16] sooo the notification area is gone and I've got a bunch of errors [03:16] Cryptic_Donkey: i coudl be wrong, but i think its called either Frontier Linux, or Pioneer Linux [03:16] Gnea: but will it happen? [03:16] vimpulse: if you make it happen [03:16] well iv'ed been using this computer for a couple of weeks now [03:16] Nvidia 9400gt says it needs 300 watt power supply, will it run okay on a 255 watt power supply? [03:16] is it worth it to get 512mb of ram on the 7300gt? Or should I get a cheaper 256mb? [03:16] and i was running low on storage space, i just checked df -h and I saw /host [03:16] Gnea: so if mib doesn't double-click "Computer" then the hard drive icon, then it won't happen? [03:17] vimpulse: can't say - depends on if it needs to be fsck'd or not [03:17] smacfarl, I got 256 [03:17] smacfarl: i have the 512GT. and I like it.. I use it to play Open Arena, UT, etc.. i like it [03:17] peregrine81: did you try my suggestion [03:17] Gnea: it needs to be fsck'd: it was force-remounted ro. [03:17] "The panel encountered a problem while loading "OAFIID:GNOME_NotificationAreaApplet" Do you want to delete the applet from your configuration?" This happens for every thing [03:17] hi all... could someone tell me how to use a wrapper from a command line ? i'm trying to install ubuntu via a network boot... this page >> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/LocalNet#Set%20up%20the%20servers << says something about a wrapper for starting bootp how do i do it? [03:17] IndyGunFreak: I am not interestood in learning a new distribution due to the fact that ubuntu has served me well on my lenonvo 3000 N500 [03:17] vimpulse: if you want to be safe, don't use the primitive gui [03:17] chuck_ Yes I did [03:17] syntax\: du may be more useful. [03:17] this is my update [03:17] voss, it will either not work at all or be very slow (or explode) so no [03:17] Gnea: what is a primitive gui? [03:17] I upgraded to 9,04 from 8.10 and my USB drives now take about several minutes to be recognized by the system. Any ideas? [03:17] vimpulse: then the probability of it being rw is quite low [03:17] vimpulse: gnome :) [03:17] Cryptic_Donkey: makes sense, just saying, id on't think its comnpletely gone, just not around for Ubuntu anymore [03:17] Heh, /host isn't standard. [03:18] KB1JWQ: its a 30 gb partition, and it has ubuntu folder on it [03:18] syntax\: is there also /target? [03:18] IndyGunFreak: Poimt taken [03:18] macvr, That file is a bash script for starting and stopping bootpd [03:18] vimpulse: a primitive gui is anything made with tk. [03:18] vimpulse: in a situation like that, i'd use the commandline - less chance of making a mistake and more likely to catch any new mistakes - with the gui, something could go wrong and you wouldn't know about it until after the damage is done [03:18] chuck_ what do you think? [03:18] Strav: :) [03:19] or motif [03:19] Gnea: is one of the steps that the liveCD does when booting "Checking all file systems"? and does that troll for filesystems and fsck them? [03:19] macvr, copy the text into a text file, add #!/bin/sh to the top and set execute bit [03:19] vimpulse KB1JWQ u want me to paste it on pastebin? [03:19] peregrine81: reboot see what that does [03:19] hmmm found windows preinstall floppy links for a mcp55 chipset on a gigabyte (im using msi) page... cached by google... [03:19] syntax\: i don't. But tell us what else there is in / [03:19] boss_mc: ok ... thanx man [03:19] So the collective recommendation here for AGP is the Nvidia 7300GT, yes? I was reading about the 7600 and the 7800. Do they exist in AGP are they better, no longer made? Any thoughts? [03:19] *shrug* thanks for the help. [03:19] vimpulse: u want me to tell you what's on /? [03:19] vimpulse: the livecd will locate your disks, but i don't think it will do anything with them until you tell it to [03:19] or /host? [03:19] syntax\: yes [03:20] smacfarl: even if a card is no longer made, you can get it on ebay [03:20] smacfarl, there are powerful cards around but they're few and far between (and stupidly expensive) [03:20] mib: ok time to reboot into the livecd. Then come back to #ubuntu [03:20] mib: then ping me [03:20] means restart whole thing? [03:20] smacfarl: i'd just get the newest AGP nvidia card if I had the $ [03:21] wow. How great is it to have so much collective brainpower around. This has got to be my best support xchat ever. Thanks so much everybody. [03:21] smacfarl: ubuntu-offtopic is where this disscussion belongs as does my discussion about automatix [03:21] smacfarl: glad to help [03:21] smacfarl: welcome to #ubuntu ;) [03:21] magnetron: how many people did you just ctcp ping? :) [03:21] vimpulse→ you said "ping me" [03:21] * vimpulse groans :) [03:21] vimpulse: if he'd pinged everyone, he wouldn't be here now :) [03:21] vimpulse: / has this bin, dev, host, lost+found, opt, sbin, sys, var, boot, etc, initrd.img, media, proc, selinux, tmp, vmlinuz, cdrom, home, lib, mnt, root, srv, usr [03:21] boss_mc: how do i select start/ stop / restart?

[03:23] mib: yes [03:23] Oops. [03:23] ok [03:23] :D [03:23] No. [03:23] boss_mc: so i just cd to the directory and start . thats correct ? [03:23] macvr, yep [03:23] make sure execute bit is set [03:23] and you must be root [03:23] Now I did, restarting. [03:23] boss_mc: thats man... i was busting my head to use it from command line!

[03:32] chuck_ no way to help? [03:33] so, turns out I had to use mdadm and the lvm utilities to do everything manually. The installer seems to have picked up the ones I've made.

So far ubuntu has been great about recognizing and installing hardware but so far I don't see anysigns of this card being installed. could someone direct me how to see if the system even sees it etc... [03:35] peregrine81: If the fix i sent you did not work, then i do not know how to help you sorry [03:35] peregrine81, reset your panel settings [03:35] !reset panel [03:35] Sorry, I don't know anything about reset panel [03:35] chuck_ told me to do that [03:36] this error stops them from starting up [03:36] they crash before starting [03:36] peregrine81, rm -r ~/.gconf/apps/panel [03:36] peregrine81, relogin, it should be back to default [03:36] did that :S chuck_ said that, and yes it was default but I get this error [03:37] I just installed 9.04 netbook remix on my msi wind, I've got the webcam working in cheese however when I go to a website like mebeam.com the cam light just comes on and shuts off and I have no picture, I've tried every flash plugin I can find but have no idea what to try next [03:37] JorgeJorgesson: what is the bug report URL?

I'm trying to install ubuntu on my laptop via tftp. If I boot up linux (it has an old, dying installation) I can get a dhcp lease from the ISC daemon, but in the pxe stage I get Media Failure. What to do? [03:43] /proc/cpuinfo is showing a 1.0 Ghz processor when im running a 2.4 Ghz processor, how can i resolve this? [03:44] neoteny, no kde has its own beast of similar nature [03:44] Stepan1: there are two major differences between Linux and Windows. 1) in Linux, you should almost never need to download software from webpages. If you do, it will be hard or impossible to install. Instead, you should use "Add/Remove..." on the start menu to both download and install. Ok? [03:44] hacker_kid, its scaled down [03:44] hacker_kid, run something intensive, its going to scale up [03:44] neoteny, gnome and kde use a shared spec for Trash the gnome-vfs implementation [03:44] Stepan1: 2) never reinstall Linux when you have a problem -- just get our help to fix it. [03:44] usser: got it thanks [03:44] usser, ah. that makes sense. where can i get the actual processor statistics? [03:44] vimpulse: I'd love to answer but I have a ton of apps greying out [03:45] usser, will it mount to something other than ~/.gvfs ? what the heck is that? what happened to just mounting to /media or /mnt? [03:45] hacker_kid: right click your panel, click "add to panel", and add the "cpu frequency scaling monitor" if you want to keep an eye on the scaling [03:45] neoteny, I think that still applies not sure on kde4 [03:45] vimpulse: i've come to see that over the years. But im always tempeted to download .deb files [03:45] mpontillo, actually i need to read processor statistics from a script. so no GUI [03:45] vimpulse: thanks for the advise [03:45] hacker_kid, cat /proc/cpuinfo should show you something like model name : Intel(R) Celeron(R) CPU 540 @ 1.86GHz [03:45] Stepan1: try to resist. Mono is available through your package manager. [03:45] wish the devs would leave the stuff that's working alone and fix the broken stuff :) [03:46] neoteny, that is a favorite saying of mine too lol [03:46] usser, model name : AMD Athlon(tm) 64 Processor 3500+ not in this case [03:46] JorgeJorgesson: why are so many apps not responding for you? [03:46] looking for help with going wireless with U8.10 on HP laptop with AMD64 [03:46] hi guys I need help....I need to get my wintv-hvr-850 analog part working [03:46] hacker_kid you can also do this dmesg|grep processor [03:46] neoteny, but we need new stuff and new libraries and some experimentation as well :) [03:46] anyone know? [03:46] how can i tell how much space i have left on my hdd [03:47] I got digital working just not analog [03:47] hacker_kid, so you need its top frequency essentially? [03:47] mattwj2002, I cant help with that I have no experience at all [03:47] krammer_: right click > Properties [03:47] hacker_kid: then you can try: tail -f /proc/whatever [03:47] okay anyone else? [03:47] coz_, yeah. get me used to something and then move it on me! oh well. [03:47] usser: Ok I put device manager on and it looks like it is there and recognized but when I plugged in my removable wireless cards they would be recognized and put into the network icon in the upper right. THis one isn't, how do you think I need to enable it? [03:47] krammer: Just write /dev/zero to a file using dd and see how far it gets ;) [03:47] neoteny: you can say that again! I just wasted hours getting my audio to work again, after the updates muted all my settings! [03:47] google has been no help :( [03:47] usser, correct, i just need to know what the capacity is, i also need to find a way to read the current consumption in mhz or percent [03:47] vimpulse: If I knew that, I would solve my problem. Sorry, frustrated [03:48] hacker_kid: try man tail to see if it fits your need for monitoring the cpu [03:48] Does anyone know how to build and install the bleeding edge ath5k drivers? [03:48] Strav, thank you :) [03:48] chuck_, that command worked well thank you :) [03:48] abcminiuser, do you have link for the driver download? [03:49] your welcome [03:49] when i plug in my 360 controller in jaunty, the status light just keeps flashing and it never shows up for xinput list [03:49] coz_: the ath5k.org website mentions their git, but doesn't provide a darn link [03:49] and wtf doesn't ctl+alt+backspace restart xorg? they do realize that after enough years muscle memory sets in and it's down right cruel to change that kind of stuff, don't they? [03:49] JorgeJorgesson: so ask the people here (not me, I'm busy) for help solving the gray-apps problem. [03:49] hacker_kid, hm [03:50] abcminiuser, looking hold on [03:50] neoteny: because C+A+Bksp used to be able to cause serious data loss in running apps. [03:50] coz_: thanks, the current jaunty one works, but a bug causes it to sap power damn fast on my Aspire On [03:50] i was just saying i think i'm done distro hopping. but this is really is gonna make me move on even though i think shipit is the neatest thing since sliced bread. [03:50] *Aspire One [03:50] hacker_kid: you want someone to monitor cpu usage in x? [03:51] usser, what files do top and htop read to output the statistics? i know /proc/meminfo for mem stats but i need processor and nic activity as well [03:51] something* [03:51] abcminiuser, you can try git pull http://madwifi-project.org/browser/madwifi is madwifi what you want? [03:51] hacker_kid, somewhere in /proc. im actually looking for one myself right now [03:51] Apaxis, negative. i need to monitor system activity in an application which will take appropriate action [03:51] yay, I got my tftp/pxe installer going [03:51] usser, as am i, thank you for your help :) [03:51] coz_: not sure if the madwifi driver incorporates the ath5k code, which is what I'm after [03:51] hacker_kid: ah, like a script [03:52] from the netinstaller, how can I see which version I'm installing? [03:52] hacker_kid: know what's usefull? man -k proc or man -k cpu === mike is now known as Guest46283 [03:52] hacker_kid: the info you are looking for is also in /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/cpuinfo_max_freq [03:52] coz_: I just want the latest ath5k so it doesn't interrupt every nanosecond :P [03:52] I downloaded Dolphin (GC EMU) how do i install it? run it? [03:52] abcminiuser, ok looking hold on [03:52] anyone know of a acer xspire x1700 partition editer ? [03:52] Apaxis, correct. communicating with a cluster and making appropriate decisions for itself and the cluster [03:52] anyone can help me, why my ubuntu 904 always freeze and hang ? [03:52] Hi, [03:52] Strav, ah thank you :) [03:52] or better yet where can i get tuxcube [03:52] mpontillo, thanks :) [03:53] How do I connect to an encrypted AFP machine or just regular AFP machine for that matter using Command-Line? [03:53] hacker_kid: cat >> /proc/cpuinfo shoull provide the cpu data you are looking for? [03:53] mpontillo, im assuming its cpu1, cpu2, etc for multiple cores? [03:53] hacker_kid: ah, i know you can use gkrellm to monitor remote machines and run commands at certain levels, but as far as a cluster im not sure [03:53] TopBunny88, negative [03:53] Tuxcube, where can i get it [03:53] vimpulse: no problem. I'll solve the local problem first. [03:53] hacker_kid: most likely youll want some type of a library, or a script [03:53] JorgeJorgesson: what local problem? [03:53] everyone looking for cpu info right click on upper panel add tp panel cpu freq monitor [03:53] to [03:53] Apaxis, it cant integrate into the existing system [03:53] hacker_kid: correct; I'd just change directory to /sys/devices/system/cpu and start looking around; all the info you ever imagined should be at your fingertips ;) [03:54] vimpulse: grey apps [03:54] is it posiible to format a hidden cpoy-write partition? [03:54] I need help installing ATI drivers for 4870x2 (R700) on 9.04. Tried all "normal" ways resulting in corrupted screen ( i have youtube video of it) can anyone please help. Thank you in advance. === Jobias is now known as jobias1 [03:54] Apaxis, i was looking for a library but didnt find one. so reading the files myself shouldnt be too hard [03:54] Who do I bitch to this about? This afternoon I ran my updates, and all my system sounds stopped working, except for my unixcw app. I triple checked my settings, and they seemed correct, but to be sure, I tried every option available, to no avail. Hovering the mouse over the panel speaker icon showed the volume was at 100%, and right clicking on it, gave me the option to mute, so I assumed nothing was muted. But, when I finally righ [03:54] t clicked on the icon, opend and opened the volume control, all the settings were muted. Four hours down the drain due to a dysfunctional panel applet! [03:54] mpontillo, thank you :) [03:54] abcminiuser, http://wireless.kernel.org/en/developers/Documentation/git-guide [03:54] hacker_kid: well gkrellm and all those cpu monitor apps are open source, if all else fails you can check their source code [03:54] no one knows where i can download tuxcube? [03:54] abcminiuser, sorry the command is git clone my fault [03:55] jaunty refuses to detect my 360 controller [03:55] any wireless grurus on? [03:55] it worked fine in hardy [03:55] which release does kernel 2.6.24 "come from"? [03:55] hi guys [03:55] !foo [03:55] Bar [03:55] I think I found my answer! [03:55] :D [03:55] !baz [03:55] Apaxis, yes but the existing systems are in python and i would like to make one clean system not patch together with something else :) [03:55] Sorry, I don't know anything about baz [03:55] http://dougsland.livejournal.com/tag/linuxtv [03:55] coz_: thanks, will try [03:55] I just did some digging and found that the card I put in is a WMP11 from linksys [03:55] abcminiuser, also here http://wireless.kernel.org/en/users/Download [03:55] How do I connect to an encrypted AFP machine or just regular AFP machine for that matter using Command-Line? [03:55] hacker_kid: what do you mean? you cant get the filename from another source file and make your own python program from that? [03:55] n2diy: launchpad.net is the bitching place, but try not to be a bitch ;) [03:55] I have Apple servers to connect to here [03:55] hi vimpulse [03:55] abcminiuser, you want to read through both links before atempting this by the way :) [03:55] hacker_kid for cpu info right click on upper panel add tp panel cpu freq monitor [03:55] whats a good software to buuuuuuurn iso [03:55] im back [03:56] on anothe rpc [03:56] i dont understand how the source cant help you [03:56] !wintv [03:56] Sorry, I don't know anything about wintv [03:56] Apaxis, sorry i misunderstood you :) [03:56] no prob [03:56] !dial-up [03:56] You want to connect via dial-up?

[03:56] im just giving you a last resort option, i have no clue and it seems nobody else does either [03:56] thanks xanguuuuua [03:56] vimpulse, ok [03:56] coz_: will do, thanks heaps [03:57] vimpulse, im now in live cd mode [03:57] NO AFP people on? [03:57] Does wireless work on U8.10, HP laptop, AMD64? [03:57] Please [03:57] anyone else have a wintv-hvr-850? [03:57] Incidentally, what kernel version does 9.04 use? [03:57] ketch1: probably [03:57] I think I found the solution [03:57] :) [03:57] hi, I'm planning to write some device drivers for a cable STB for windows. I believe the device is supported in linux already, is anyone here familiar with the DCT 1600 set top box (firewire) device? [03:57] abcminiuser: 2.6.28 [03:57] sorry not 1600 [03:57] 6200 [03:57] mib: you said "on another pc". what do you mean? [03:57] ketch1: lspci to see what wireless card you have... then search if it's supported (most likely yes) [03:57] johnb003: it's a firewire block device, no "drivers" necessary [03:58] thank you fryguy. Can you help me get it to work? [03:58] jaunty won't detect my usb controller [03:58] vimpulse, im now login into another pc for the chat. [03:58] ketch1: is it listed in ifconfig [03:58] Whhhhat uppp.. :) [03:58] fryguy: ahh... [03:58] hacker_kid you want a app to enable freq scaling on a scalable cpu correct [03:58] Strav, Broadcom 4311 [03:58] Strav: Thanks, I'm happy to have a mission critical demo box playing Pandora radio again, but miffed it cost me an afternoon to do it. I'll chill before going to launchpad. [03:58] mib: go over to your first PC and log into chat from there [03:58] fryguy: but I might still benefit from seeing what signals are sent to the device? I have no idea how it's supported from linux at the moment. [03:59] vimpulse, ive to set everything..coz now i dont even have mounted to /media/storage anymore [03:59] chuck_, negative. i want an app to read the max freq and current processor consumption, as well as other stats regarding memory and network activity [03:59] also, i can't use my second x screen in jaunty [03:59] Is there anything better then gedit? That someone would suggest? [03:59] hi [03:59] badfish69: so configure it in /etc/X11/xorg.conf [03:59] ketch1: google for it, broadcom 4311 ubuntu. you'lll most likely find some instructions for it. [03:59] coleys: it depends what your needs and preferences are [03:59] Use VIM instead of Gedit [03:59] is there any online shoter games for ubuntuuuu? === raiden is now known as Guest59567 [03:59] coleys, vim [03:59] coleys: there's a lot of text editors available for linux, check out vim [03:59] in system>admin>hardware drivers it's got a "green" light [03:59] i have a desktop there [03:59] an applications menu, a places menu, a system menu [03:59] mib: that's ok, just go to the your datalost PC then run xchat [03:59] but when i try to open anything, it pops up on my first screen [03:59] coleys: what do you plan on editing? [03:59] ketch1: is it listed in ifconfig [04:00] Thanks guys, just wanted to see what the majority liked, usually a good one when that happens =p [04:00] mib: then log into IRC [04:00] * abcminiuser proclaims coz_ a ledgend [04:00] * abcminiuser can't spell :P [04:00] n2diy: Uhh... Just regular editing.. not like programming or anything. [04:00] i have the same setup i did in hardy and it worked [04:00] coleys: then vim is probably wrong for you. [04:00] badfish69: a lot of things change between versions [04:00] Oops, then forget VIM and use Openoffice.org Writer or Gedit [04:00] badfish69: "it worked in hardy" is hardly a guarantee [04:00] Hmm [04:00] coleys: abiword is a light weight editor, with a straight forward UI. [04:00] ok [04:01] coleys: i still recommend vim for all text editing [04:01] coleys: I use nano, pico and ed [04:01] vimpulse:im back [04:01] Anyone here know AFP [04:01] In Nautilus i cannot browse the contents of my laptop over the network until i restart the samba daemon on the laptop. Does anyone know how i can fix this? [04:01] hacker_kid ok sorry my mistake system monitor does all that [04:01] ? [04:01] coleys: nano is tighttt. [04:01] I kinda like using google docs for plain old editing projects. === patrick is now known as Guest86788 [04:01] Alex_21: the apple analog of samba? sure [04:01] ketch1: then you have a proprietary driver for it. as fryguy said, if you have it listed in ifconfig then it's working. [04:01] ok [04:01] nano sucks :P [04:01] Ummm hi i need to scan for my wireless broadcom driver, but it cant detect it [04:01] so how do i configure x to allow programs to open on my second screen instead of going over to the first? [04:01] VIM if you have to edit in the terminal, gedit/kate otherwise [04:01] chuck_, nps, im probably going to have to read the files manually but i cant find all the stats [04:01] mi1: (sudo aptitude update && sudo aptitude install ntfsprogs build-essential -yq) ; meanwhile, download and compile ext3grep yourself [04:01] i need to enable it so i can connect wirelessly [04:01] if i dont have a dvd to burn the iso couuuuld i uuse the burn cd image in a regular cd to boot uuubuntu?

[04:11] vinpulse: guild wars [04:11] vuln, that's not how linux works. I believe you can do that if you install from source, I think you can specify directory though.

[04:12] bingungaja, then I want you to highlight this next command and middle click inside the terminal window to get it right ok?

Then developers could use this to create a backend for it. [04:13] vimpulse, its fine with the password, now the problem is the e2fslib-dev [04:13] bingungaja, tell if things pick up after that command [04:13] RichiV: It is infact better than wine because is support several more applications than wine [04:13] mi1: what is the problem with that?

[04:14] subcool_: if you are editing the file you'll need to read the manpage for specific syntax, just go through the administration menu or use xrandr [04:14] bingungaja, ok [04:14] roy_hobbs: no but ask in #videolan [04:14] i did, not much help there [04:14] topbunny88:there are no matching apps in the add/remove [04:14] vimpulse, previously my mistakes, i should use sudo which fryguy clarified [04:14] RichiV: google for codeveavers and ti should be the first LINK ON THE GOOGLE RESULTS PAGE [04:14] been waiting for abotu 45 minutes for an answer [04:14] ketch1: ok, you can try: sudo ifconfig wlan0 up [04:14] !tv [04:14] http://www.linuxtv.org/ has extensive information about using TV cards under Linux.

[04:24] fryguy: s3 [04:24] i have 2 x screens set up with the properietary nvidia driver, but if i try to open anything on the second screen, it just opens on the first [04:24] jimisrvrox: check ram (and swap) and cpu usage in system monitor or top or something [04:24] Strav, I typed wicd and it returned: command not found [04:24] ketch1: is there any access points/routers nearby? [04:24] my keyboard and mouse do not register the first key or click on any window/entry/input etc. its very annoying. [04:24] subcool_: if you scroll through the file it'll show you supported modes for the driver, see if the resolution you want to use is listed [04:24] jimisrvrox: also considering blocking flash if you aren't already (flash is a bit of a cpu hog) [04:24] badfish69, right tha tis the way nvidia is suppose to work howver you can disable that in the xorg.conf [04:24] ketch1: wicd is not installed by default... you should have it on intrepid repositories. [04:24] mzz: I am watching it in sys mon [04:25] badfish69: so configure a window manager so that windows open how you want to [04:25] badfish69: or just drag the window over to the correct display [04:25] mzz: prob is I like to have like 10 or so tabs open at once [04:25] apt-get install wicd (but be carefull it's gonna ask you to remove network-manager) [04:25] Strav, yes. this machine is plugged into a linksys. My wife's windoz machine uses it wirelessly [04:25] jimisrvrox: Firefox has memory leaks, google on that for a fix. Or you could try Opera, or Ephinany. [04:25] yo, can I put ubuntu server on a dvd? [04:25] soooo I'm back from trying to restart X [04:25] jasonmchristos: sure [04:25] jimisrvrox: it is likely the background applications you're running are using almost no cpu while you're not using them, so if any slowness you experience is purely cpu-bound killing them won't help [04:25] n2diy: even FF3? [04:25] vimpulse: let me know if you know any updates [04:25] jimisrvrox: if you're running out of ram (swap is being used) killing them may help [04:25] badfish69, if you want to try the other way open your /etc/X11/xorg.conf for editing [04:25] is there a dvd image? [04:25] so, I changed my hostname, and whenever I sudo, bash is giving me "sudo: unable to resolve host echo" [04:25] hi is there a utility or a package that i can install into ubuntu 8.10 livecd so it can ext4 partition? [04:25] jasonmchristos: no an official one [04:26] mi1: try "aptitude update" in verbose mode. I don't know how to make it do verbose mode though. [04:26] h00k: try rebooting [04:26] jasonmchristos: that i know of [04:26] vimpulse, I have [04:26] read [04:26] jasonmchristos: just burn the cd image to the dvd [04:26] !hostname | h00k [04:26] ubuntu: change your nickname, then re-ask [04:26] h00k: Use hostname to set the hostname, or to do it permanently: edit /etc/hostname and /etc/hosts . WARNING! Make sure that your current hostname and /etc/hosts match, otherwise sudo may not work properly. Alternatively, use the gui at System > Administration > Networking on the "General" tab [04:26] jimisrvrox: "firefox has memory leaks" is fud. [04:26] fryguy: what's a good one to get? [04:26] mzz: im sure youre right about that and being a linux n00b and not knowing the linux task manager I wouldnt be versed on which apps to kill [04:26] ketch1: can you paste the results of iwconfig in the pastebin? [04:26] jasonmchristos: the official cd image [04:26] h00k: then I don't know. can anyone help h00k? [04:26] I still have no notification and, no clock, no NM(eventhough it works) nothing in the notification window coz_ [04:26] jimisrvrox: yeah, I'm not really suggesting just killing them there. "kill" was the wrong word to use, sorry. [04:26] mzz: hehe [04:26] fryguy: how do I do cloud computing is it also on 8.04 or just 9.04? [04:26] h00k: You'll need to make sure those two files match. Probably from a live-cd or single user recovery mode. [04:26] !reset-panels | peregrine81 [04:26] Sorry, I don't know anything about reset-panels [04:26] peregrine81, for fusion-icon? [04:26] coz_ errors still shows up [04:26] jasonmchristos: what is cloud computing? [04:26] peregrine81, ok [04:26] !resetpanel [04:26] To reset the panel to defaults, type this in a !terminal: « gconftool --recursive-unset /apps/panel && killall gnome-panel » [04:26] jasonmchristos: what? [04:27] jimisrvrox: sort the processes list by memory usage and see what floats to the top. Then try to figure out if you can shut it down cleanly. [04:27] fryguy: I have downloaded both official images via bittorrent [04:27] coz_ the gdm would fail on start [04:27] peregrine81, oh man [04:27] jimisrvrox: install firefox add on noflash and see if performance improves [04:27] jasonmchristos: cloud computing is a conceptual model, what are you specifically referring to? [04:27] jimisrvrox: don't know about FF3? All I know is I got tired of killing firefox every morning, so I switched to Xubuntu, and it did the same thing. So I found the fix that limits how much memory FF can use, and that helped, somewhat. [04:27] fryguy: it doesnt say muc, but than again.. im trying to read this 3 lines at a time. And i have no side scroll. i dont see anything that resembles a resolution [04:27] coz_ when I did the restart it would fail. But when I reboot it works [04:27] peregrine81, ok I am puzzled then . [04:27] subcool_: so ctrl-alt-f2 and read it in a standard terminal [04:27] fryguy: the offical website highlights it on the ubuntu server page [04:27] peregrine81, I am also tired so I better let someone else take over with this [04:27] coz_ best solution is to reinstall I suppose. sigh [04:28] vimpulse, Pici, I had forgotten /etc/hosts, thanks [04:28] jasonmchristos: like i said, it's a generic computing model, what specifically are you referring to? [04:28] n2diy: try seamonkey or epiphany or opera instead? [04:28] fryguy: it even says that ubuntu will help businesses migrate to it [04:28] Strav, iwconfig pastebin: http://paste.ubuntu.com/166479/ [04:28] Anyone know when Opera is going to be bundled for 9.04? [04:28] never [04:28] felixsulla: never [04:28] fryguy: i just did a search for 400, and found the 400 res that im viewing. Meanwhile it says it is not usingg it. [04:28] is there a command to run in a terminal that would configure me an optimal resolution with my nvidia card ? [04:28] n2diy: well what really sucks is id love to just run like LXDE instead of gnome and have that fix the shit but I think its a FF problem and not to mention that I am loading like 10 tabs at once [04:28] peregrine81, well that is a last resort for one big reason... troubleshooting this and finding a solution is a great learning experience but yeah I have reinstalled after hours of frustration before :) [04:28] vimpulse: i changed the server location but still has same problem [04:28] maxagaz, sudo nvidia-xconfigure [04:28] jasonmchristos: you should take a linux administration course before you ask us about cloud computing. [04:28] fryguy: Do they not make a build for every Ubuntu version? [04:29] vimpulse: yes, except for seamonkey, didn't like the others, but I keep them handy for when I get annoyed with FF. [04:29] mi1: try "aptitude update" in verbose mode. I don't know how to make it do verbose mode though. But learn, then do it. [04:29] jimisrvrox: sorry it should be flashblock [04:29] felixsulla: they probably do [04:29] hi [04:29] ubuntu: change your nickname, then re-ask [04:29] jimisrvrox: how much memory *is* firefox using while it's slow, and is any swap used? [04:29] vimpulse: sorry to ask this. how?:) [04:29] let me run a real-time on that and I'll let you know.. [04:29] ubuntu: use /nick to change your name [04:29] ubuntu: like this: /nick yournick [04:29] coz_ this is shitty. It always worked and now its just shit? === ubuntu is now known as frustphil [04:30] no new installed applications [04:30] !language | peregrine81 [04:30] peregrine81: Please watch your language and topic to help keep this channel family friendly. [04:30] vimpulse: thanks :) [04:30] h00k, it didn't work, it take me back to a worse resolution [04:30] jimisrvrox: well, limiting the memory usage of FF helped, I only have to kill it once a day now, compared to two or three times a day. [04:30] fryguy: So any idea why they are never going to make a 9.04 build? [04:30] sorry ubottu [04:30] hi is there a utility or a package that i can install into ubuntu 8.10 livecd so it can ext4 partition? [04:30] felix you can go get opera from the opera web site for 9.04 [04:30] frustphil: better. now read www.irchelp.org for 3 minutes, then come back here :) [04:30] felixsulla: they will eventually [04:30] maxagaz, try the nvidia-settings application [04:30] fryguy: So why did you say never? [04:30] vimpulse..k... [04:30] peregrine81, ok maybe a reinstall is called for... this is one of those situations when a "house call" would be nice :) [04:30] felixsulla: i said it will never be packaged or bundled with ubuntu, which is what i thought your initial query was [04:30] fryguy: Canonical provides businesses with the tools they need to adopt cloud-computing. [04:30] n2diy: damn thats bad! [04:30] this error has happened before [04:31] fryguy: Oh, sorry, no. I just meant they make a version for each version it looks like, but 9.04 wasnt out yet. [04:31] n2diy: I will usually have to kill only once as is [04:31] h00k, it didn't help too [04:31] ketch1: it's strange that you don't get any result in scanning for access points. Could it be that your wireless network is broadcasting it's name has hidden? (normally you don't detect them on windows). [04:31] fryguy: I know what cloud computing is, how do you do it with ubuntu [04:31] coz_ some guy on redhat had this problem and he just had to delete things in his tmp [04:31] jasonmchristos: so then contact canonical and negotiate a support contract to obtain that service [04:31] coz_ I did it but no change [04:31] frustphil: if you want bonus points, read http://www.sabi.co.uk/Notes/linuxHelpAsk.html too :) [04:31] !nvidia | maxagaz [04:31] maxagaz: For Ati/NVidia/Matrox video cards, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto [04:31] jasonmchristos: the same way you should with any other operating system [04:31] fryguy: the question is it available on 8.04 as well as 9.04 [04:31] peregrine81, well this isnt red hat so I am not surprised [04:31] jasonmchristos: yes [04:31] coz_ but same error/issue [04:31] jimisrvrox: I'm using vintage hardware, so the issue is exaggerated here. [04:31] jasonmchristos: are you a sysadmin? [04:32] fryguy: thank you for answereing. then , I think I will go with 8.04 for stability [04:32] Can anyone tell me commands to "reset" your wirelss if it goes down? Something similar to ipconfig /renew on the windows side? [04:32] anyhow, if you know your wireless network name, you can try: sudo iwconfig wlan0 essid yournetworkname [04:32] coz_ why does linux enchant me by starting out perfect and then push me away. The best experience I've had on linux is when I used a live-cd permenantly for 2 years [04:32] jasonmchristos: please refer to this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cloud_computing [04:32] peregrine81, ooo I understand [04:32] fryguy: the interesting thing is that they have a public cloud , exactly the idea I came up with about a year ago [04:32] !ifconfig | felixsulla [04:32] Sorry, I don't know anything about ifconfig [04:32] !eucalyptus | jasonmchristos [04:32] Sorry, I don't know anything about eucalyptus [04:33] fryguy: If you want to use Ubuntu Server Edition on a public cloud then Ubuntu on Amazon EC2 is for you. [04:33] peregrine81, however it will get better... make sure the cd you installed from has no errors the live cd does have a cd check available [04:33] Strav, I believe the linksys is set open. I share it with a friend on his boat === Rabbitbu1ny is now known as Rabbitbunny [04:33] peregrine81, if it turns out to be corrupted then redownload the live cd and try again [04:33] fryguy: im trying that force Xrandr command. Do i have to restart the gui when i do that? [04:33] subcool_: no [04:33] coz_ yes but everything worked for the last two weeks [04:33] jasonmchristos: are you a sysadmin? [04:33] ketch1: to make thing easier, for a moment, you could turn off your network encryption. then try dhclient and you should be able to access your network. [04:33] fryguy: well than xrandr isnt working [04:33] vimpulse: I am my own sysadmin [04:34] peregrine81, oh! what were you doing or installing when this occurred? [04:34] subcool_: or your video card (or monitor) is unable to produce that resolution/refresh rate [04:34] vimpulse: do I have to read them? my question is valid. [04:34] peregrine81: I just got here, but does this problem also happen in a freshly created user account? [04:34] vimpulse: and the sys admin of a few individual clients [04:34] fryguy: i use this video card often- [04:34] jasonmchristos: you're asking awfully vague questions :) [04:34] frustphil: Just ask your question. [04:34] frustphil: no. just ask. [04:34] subcool_: or the driver you are using [04:34] coz_ nothing. I had been working on getting suspend to work all day. I changed a few things in my xorg.conf and got it to work sparatically [04:34] frustphil: if you asked, and waited 5 min, and nobody answered, then reask. === Crypric_Donkey is now known as Cryptic_Donkey [04:34] Is there a utility or a package that i can install into ubuntu 8.10 livecd so it can ext4 partition? [04:34] vimpulse: no it wasn't very nague at all just the answers I was getting were vague NONE OF WHICH CAME FROM YOU [04:35] frustphil: like i answered you a while back, no [04:35] peregrine81, and did you try to comment out the c hanges in xorg.conf to see if they are the culprit?? [04:35] frustphil: can *what* an ext4 partition? [04:35] frustphil: ext4 is too new. Don't use it. [04:35] Pici..can read [04:35] coz_ I will try but I doubt it :) [04:35] vimpulse: I wouldn't dare ask you a programming question vim [04:35] sorry [04:35] Strav, I don't think network encryption is on... pastebin of dhclient http://paste.ubuntu.com/166482/ [04:35] I wish i had a pci express card [04:35] how do I get java running (so I can run a java app from my browser [04:35] what a pain [04:35] peregrine81, cant hurt its part of the troubleshooting process :) [04:35] sigger_: install the java plugin [04:35] frustphil: If the ext4 parition was created without extents, then you will be able to read it. [04:36] fryguy: ah thanks. and how? [04:36] sigger_: using apt [04:36] sigger_: just apt-cache search for it [04:36] n2diy: alright well thats cool [04:36] frustphil: ext4 is backwards compatible (w/o extents) with ext3 and ext2 [04:36] vimpulse: see I have customer service skills that's why I will get linux on more computers than you while you just "code for food" [04:36] Who still uses ext2? [04:36] jasonmchristos: lol [04:36] jimisrvrox: GL [04:37] Pici: how? I currently on a livecd 8.10. Performing grub commands won't work. My guess is that the 8.10 can't read ext4 partition.. [04:37] ok guys I am getting real tired here so I have to get to bed peregrine81 hope this gets solved soon for you :) [04:37] fryguy: unfortunately apt-cache search java returns about a billion progs/libs [04:37] vimpulse: I get that new money , what you get is that "trickle down effect" from me [04:37] jasonmchristos: there is no competition for who can install ubuntu on the most PCs. When people ask me what to use for home computing, I sometimes recommend Windows. [04:37] my keyboard and mouse do not register the first key or click on any window/entry/input etc. its very annoying. any ways to fix this? [04:37] fryguy: nvm- i got what i needed out of it- .. ill just boot in mac.. [04:37] fryguy: Thanks alot !!! :-) [04:37] sigger_: and 'apt-cache search java plugin' -- which is what i told you to install, returns far less than "a million" [04:37] frustphil: Are you trying to install grub on an ext4 parition? Because I don't believe that even 9.04 supports that [04:37] * subcool_ wonders y fryguy isnt an mod' [04:37] vimpulse: ok keep reccomending windows and giving microsoft 100 bucks while I pocket that and then some === subcool_ is now known as subcool [04:37] subcool_: great [04:37] !offtopic | vimpulse [04:37] vimpulse: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics. Thanks! [04:38] Pici: I thought ext4 could not be read by an 8.10 installation because ext4 is was not in that kernel [04:38] fryguy: ah wth plugin prolly < 1,000,000 [04:38] mzz: alright what im noticing is that cpu is constant at 100% Memory constant at 78-79% swap is constant 39% and what really bugs is network...on wireless using native drivers and it just jumps bad...from mere bytes to 100kb/s if im reallyi lucky loading 15 tabs at once.. [04:38] mi1: i have to go in not too long from now. [04:38] subcool: i'm not a mod because i'm not affiliate with ubuntu in any way, don't really use it, and don't spend any of my development time on anything that is ubuntu-specific [04:38] vimpulse: my competition is with whose wallet is fatter,, want to play "big wallet little wallet"? [04:38] jimisrvrox: cpu constant at 100% is not normal. Is that all used by firefox? Does it drop if you kill a particular tab? [04:38] Pici: Actually I have a grub 22 error. My MBR is on a ext4 partition and I want my BIOS to point to somewhere else when booting... [04:38] ketch1: your wired connection took precedence on the wireless... if in iwconfig you see that the essid parameter set to your network name then you could try unplugging the wire and try dhclient. [04:38] fryguy: oh? whats ur thing? [04:38] jasonmchristos: pici already said we are offtopic. [04:38] vimpulse: do you know how to play? [04:38] subcool: ? [04:39] mzz: only drops when all tabs are loaded or if FF is killed [04:39] Pici: what's the topic? [04:39] jimisrvrox: 39% swap used is a problem. May want to switch to a lighter desktop env or shut down background processes. [04:39] fryguy: what do u focus on? [04:39] komputes: If the ext4 parition was created without extents then it can be mounted as an ext3 parition. [04:39] !admin [04:39] Sorry, I don't know anything about admin [04:39] subcool: other things [04:39] tweetdeck's icons are not responding to my mouse. is it just me?

Still pegged at 100% cpu in firefox safe mode (run "firefox -safe-mode" (without the quotes) in a terminal window after shutting down firefox completely)? [04:39] Pici: can you explain "without extents" as graphical tools usualli hide these options [04:39] Cryptic_Donkey: What are you looking for? [04:39] mzz: the thing of it is is that mem usage/swap was completely constant...network transmit was jumping all over the place BAD... [04:39] Nothing [04:39] Pici: I was talking about ubuntu the whole time [04:40] jasonmchristos: But this is not a discussion channel. We're here to ask and answer support questions. [04:40] mzz: havent tested in safe mode.. [04:40] Pici: you didn't offer no answers on how to cloud compute with ubuntu 8.04 either [04:40] Pici: I don't know about extents but by simply clicking an ext4 partition in nautilus won't work. It says it does not support ext4 partition... [04:40] komputes: I don't know enough about the techncalities of ext4 to answer that. [04:40] Stav, the essid has empty quotes: "" [04:40] need some guidance on how to reinstall grub as had to reinstal 1st Partition of HD w/win but still have ubuntu 9.04 on 2nd Part intact, how do I reinstall Grub for both OS?

Or run an app on a cloud, or what? what _specifically_ is it that you want to do [04:41] Pici: I still haven't gotten an answer to my question, but I don't want to be derrided by vimpulse for asking questions [04:41] Stav, how do I check encrypt? [04:42] ubottu & Gnea: Tnx much for guidance will go that route! [04:42] jasonmchristos: I don't know what hes on about, you may have to repeat your question for someone else to answer. You may also want to try asking in #ubuntu-sever [04:42] Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) [04:42] frustphil: so as far as I know you need to boot from the jaunty kernel (2.6.28-11) to get ext4 support - some work may have been done on the new version of grub to make an ext4 partition bootable [04:42] this should be on the main settings of your router. [04:42] fryguy: cloud computing mirroring the server over computers load balancing and process sharing [04:42] frustphil: You may have to manually mount it as an ext3 parition: ie: mount -t ext3 /dev/devicename /mountpoint [04:42] jasonmchristos: support for that is available in every OS [04:42] Pici: that's not going to work for the majority of ext4 partitions [04:43] hey everybody...can anybody explain me how it is possible to get real tranparency? [04:43] I love tot talk network infrastructure [04:43] komputes: I guess it's not possible to read ext4 partition from 8.10 livecd.. I don't know.. [04:43] fryguy: how do I configure it [04:43] Claudio: run a compositing window manager, or use xcompmgr with a standard window manager [04:43] Pici: is it possible.. by naming ext4 as ext3? [04:43] frustphil: yeah, you'll need a newer kernel (are you getting a message along the lines of "unsupported feature extents is used"?) [04:43] jasonmchristos: run rightscale or similar [04:43] frustphil: if it is possible, it's a lot of work, you are correct [04:43] a friend told me something about xgl...? [04:43] how to install ubuntu jaunty livecd on a usb from windows ? [04:43] Claudio: what about it [04:43] frustphil: whats wrong with the 9.04 liveCD? [04:44] Claudio: your info is somewhat outdated. You can have transparent windows if enabling "desktop effects" (under appearance preferences) works [04:44] mhm ist that a solution too? [04:44] Anyone apply the kernel updates this morning and hose their wireless (laptops) ? [04:44] Claudio: it's a prerequisite, something that has been handled by all recent versions of X servers bundled in all common distributions of gnu/linux for a while now [04:44] Strav, sorry I misspelled your name. How do I check for encryption? [04:44] mzz: was watching process tab instead of resources now...FF uses anywhere from 40-80% cpu and gnome mon is using anywhere from 25-40% [04:45] oh, ugh [04:45] ketch1: log into your router or gateway and check [04:45] fryguy: how do I freeze a generic install and make it available through my ubuntu 8.04 server for network install via ftp http or preferrably bittorrent? [04:45] jimisrvrox: drop the update frequency for gnome system monitor :) [04:45] tweetdeck's icons are not responding to my mouse. is it just me? [04:45] for example y would like to have the terminal with a real transparency [04:45] hi, i've janty jackalope and an ati 1250 video card, how can i know if i hace 3d acceleration ? [04:45] jimisrvrox: bad interaction between gnome system monitor and your graphics drivers there. Should be less of a cpu hit if you're on a more recent ubuntu.

See http://shipit.ubuntu.com/ and http://shipit.kubuntu.org - Shipit will send Jaunty (9.04) CDs [04:45] jasonmchristos: use the tools provided by whatever cloud computing infrastructure you use to compile a disk image [04:45] mzz: regardless nothing else process wise is running but those two and they consume a good amt of cpu [04:45] * mzz nods [04:46] n2diy: Yeah, at least you can rollback to the other kernel on boot [04:46] komputes: actually I don't have one. I installed 9.04 from within linux. I have all partitions formatted in ext4. Now i have a grub error because my BIOS points somewhere when booting. The problem is I can't do it because grub can't read ext4 partition... [04:46] jimisrvrox: if you drop gnome-system-monitor's update frequency to once a second or something like that it shouldn't consume more than a few % of cpu [04:46] coz_ it just showed up in my add to panel [04:46] mzz: ubuntu 9.04 [04:46] coz_ out of nowhere came back and i could re-add it [04:46] fryguy: what app will do this, I don't want to compile it I just want to configure an ubuntu install and repackage it for serving [04:46] frustphil: in that case head to http://releases.ubuntu.com and get one, it is so valuable to have a bootable disc and usb stick [04:46] AaronMT: hmm, hadn't thought of that? Anyway, wasn't a kernel issue, something muted all my audio controls. [04:47] jasonmchristos: it depends on the cloud computing service that you choose to use. Pick one and then go read it's documentation. [04:47] ketch1: you log on to your router, and check for your wireless encryption setting, it shoud be set to something like wep or wpa or none, set it to none. [04:47] komputes: I can't do it.. I mean I cant set the 'flags' whatever cause 8.10 livecd can't read ext4... [04:47] n2diy: for me its a kernel issue [04:47] mzz: freq is set at 3 secs [04:47] fryguy: well how do I make the image file to beginn with even before I serve it [04:47] jimisrvrox: you're right actually, a bit cpu hungry here too. Hadn't used gnome-system-monitor in a while, I normally just use top... [04:47] frustphil: a quick google search for "live cd usb windows ubuntu" shows there is a way (though unsupported): http://www.pendrivelinux.com/usb-ubuntu-810-install-from-windows-non-persistent/ ... you might try that if you don't want to waste a disc ;) [04:47] jasonmchristos: for the 3rd time, you use the tools provided by the cloud computing service you choose to use [04:48] fryguy: making an image has nothing to do with cloud computing [04:48] jimisrvrox: anyway, firefox shouldn't use more than a few % of cpu either while it's not actually doing anything. Kill flash (through an addon like flashblock or just by disabling the plugin in tools -> add-ons -> plugins) and start closing tabs while monitoring cpu usage. [04:48] Thanks guys -- latest wireless drivers compiled and installed just fine! (I think, at least :P) [04:48] jasonmchristos: of course it does [04:48] fryguy: this is a new question [04:48] AaronMT: have you checked to make sure your wireless module is installing now? [04:48] fryguy: I want to make an image of a standalone ubuntu desktop install [04:48] frustphil: you need much more than flags i beleive - try getting the 9.04 LiveCD, it'll save you from your problems [04:49] n2diy: how do I check [04:49] jasonmchristos: for the fourth time (I will answer no further queries about this). pick a cloud computing infrastructure, read it's documentation, and use the tools they provide to create and upload images [04:49] frustphil: oh, if you want 9.04 here's a related link: http://www.addictivetips.com/ubuntu-linux-tips/how-to-create-a-bootable-live-ubuntu-904-usb-drive/ [04:49] mzz: well my main concern really is more of a FF thing bc I dont really monitor anything but it uses anywhere from 2% right now where im not doing any loading of any pages at all all the way up to 80% when loading 10-15 tabs at once and the other thing being the network transmit jumping around from mere bytes to 80-100kb/s eseentially not consistent at all [04:49] mpontillo: Kubuntu broke my flash drive during testing..:) I can burn a cd for 9.04 but the problem is my download iso is in my ext4 partition...:) guess I'll download it again in windows... [04:49] vimpulse: still trying to figure out apt-get in verbose mode [04:49] jimisrvrox: lots of cpu load and network spikes while loading a bunch of tabs is normal and imho not something to worry about [04:49] mi1: use aptitude. Check the manpage. Hurry, I might leave. [04:50] <_Brun0_> Whats wubi default username / password? [04:50] AaronMT: lsmod will tell you what is running, and insmod modulename will load it, but you need to know the name of the module, google can help with that. [04:50] mi1: you had best phone me. +1 (416) 992-3445 [04:50] frustphil: oh, sorry, I must have misunderstood. I thought you were asking how to create the live USB from within Windows (rather than using the Linux-based tool that creates the persistent live USB) [04:50] fryguy: thanks for answering by reading the documentation of a cloud computing package FOR THE FIRST TIME [04:51] mzz: damn...FF at work of course running on a network with T1 and 1GB of ram I can load 15 tabs easy no prob...I figured I could run a lightweight linux distro..(obviously not ubuntu) and possibly get similar results...but now I guess its an app thing not an ubuntu thing.. [04:51] vimpulse: i attached -v after aptitude [04:51] mi1: that sounds right. [04:51] fryguy: "from the C.C. service... [04:51] mi1: now (sudo aptitude -v update) and pastebin the results [04:51] fryguy: what the hell is that supposed to mean === w1zard is now known as somnolence [04:51] jimisrvrox: I suspect running out of ram is the main problem (unless you have a really tiny swap partition using 39% of it under normal usage is not healthy) [04:52] Hey does anyone know if Ubuntu 8.10 amd64 is compiled with smp support? [04:52] jasonmchristos: ? [04:52] iamtechno: it is [04:52] fryguy: besides I imagined making images was a separate package [04:52] vimpulse:same thing [04:52] <_Brun0_> Whats wubi default username / password? Anyone? [04:52] jimisrvrox: it's not ubuntu it is in flash google high cpu firefox flash and you will see what i mean [04:52] jimisrvrox: and it should load a bunch of tabs in parallel ok, but it'll probably stutter a bit if you try to interact with it while it's doing that, esp. if your cpu is slow-ish or you're out of ram [04:52] mi1: use -vvv [04:52] fry guy: thanks [04:52] ok [04:52] jimisrvrox: I would recommend looking in to getting some mor physical memory for your machine [04:52] Hi for all! [04:52] Where a found .md5 and .sha1 files to verify DVD iso image of Kubuntu 9.04? [04:53] vimpulse:same [04:53] jimisrvrox: (have you tried monitoring resource usage on the system where it's fast while it's loading those tabs? I bet you'll see pretty similar results, just with less swap usage (because there's more ram) and a shorter overall time (because the cpu and network are faster)) [04:53] chuck_: ok but to me that really is not making much sense considering I am not loading anything that I know with flash on the page...mainly pictures and rss comments(which might be flash based) [04:53] sardano, should be at the same page you downloaded the ISO from [04:53] mi1: pastebin it anyway please [04:53] ok [04:53] fryguy: that's like someone asking you where to find the cheatcodes for quake and you tell them from the video game... when the code is written in the readme file [04:53] i get "Cannot open /var/log/sysstat/sa07: No such file or directory" when running sar, how can i fix that? [04:53] sardano: ubuntu ftp mirrors usuallly have them... [04:54] mzz: no I havent done that but I can do it tomorrow...it only makes logical sense of course.. [04:54] jimisrvrox: and as I've said a couple of times already you *really* want flash off (many ads are flash based, and flash in general is a cpu hog, on linux even more so) [04:54] jasonmchristos: it's not really like that at all. It's a lot more analogous to "how do I get my computer to boot from the CD", and you tell them to read the manual that comes with their motherboard. [04:54] bazhang: you around ? [04:54] jasonmchristos: since cloud computing is just abstracted virtual machines, that's it [04:54] jimisrvrox: and I agree with Cryptic_Donkey that doubling your physical ram from 512MiB to 1GiB will make a very noticable difference (I suspect more so than upgrading the cpu) considering you're currently hitting lots of swap [04:55] jimisrvrox: now days every web designer thinks they need flash add flashblock to firefox and try that [04:55] fryguy: I don't understand why you keep talking about clod computing [04:55] fryguy: the question has nothing to do with it [04:55] Cryptic_Donkey: heh...thats lovely advice considering ive got an old dinosaur with nasty ol RDRAM in it heh...but hell you cant beat 20 dollars for a whole pc....of course you could alwasy tell me well hell you get what you pay for too..' [04:55] fryguy: I give up, im going to the server room [04:55] vimpulse,http://pastebin.ca/1415995 [04:55] jasonmchristos: k [04:55] fryguy: you'd better not be answering questions in there [04:56] jimisrvrox: personally I wouldn't run gnome on a system like that, I'd just run a basic wm (with a basic panel if necessary) [04:56] mzz: total swap 729mb [04:56] mi1: that's with -vvv? [04:56] jimisrvrox: yeah, you really don't want 39% of that used [04:56] ya [04:56] fryguy: this has nothing to do with cloud computing dude [04:56] jasonmchristos: k === wizard__ is now known as Invoker [04:56] jimisrvrox: You know there are entry level windows boxes for under five hundred dollars us. [04:56] mzz: well I thought lxde did alright...but meh.. [04:56] vimpulse,ya [04:56] is there a way to take an application out of gnu screen? [04:57] mi1: i give up [04:57] selocol: what do you mean? [04:57] Cryptic_Donkey: there are entry level linux boxes for under [04:57] $200 us [04:57] selocol: (why do you want to do this?) [04:57] point? [04:57] mi1: ask the other people here for help getting (sudo aptitude update) to work. [04:57] Cryptic_Donkey: money is tight and nothing is free so...i have to do with what i have for now.. [04:57] selocol: if it starts in screen, it stays in screen until it is closed [04:57] ok [04:57] fryguy: this is more analougus of me asking you what condiments come on the hamburger and you responding , "would you like fries with that?". have fun sounding smart "fryguy" [04:57] mzz: i ran an app in screen, and i want to take it out, because i want to close the screen session but keep the process open [04:57] vimpuilse,when you will eb here again [04:57] selocol: perhaps you're looking for "disown" though (although that doesn't exactly "take it out of screen"...) [04:57] selocol: ctrl+a,d [04:57] selocol: detach the screen session instead [04:57] then screen -r to reconnect [04:57] selocol: what tonsofpcs said, that is [04:58] jasonmchristos: i didn't realize you had completely changed topics. i thought the question was still related to cloud computing which is why i gave the answer that I did [04:58] if i detach it, i can't run the process outside of screen..... [04:58] selocol: why is this a problem? [04:58] jimisrvrox: Might I suggest that you consider a custom compiled instalation from the server instalation cd/dvd [04:58] is it feasible or not? [04:58] vimpulse, when youll be here again? [04:58] fryguy: I just want to know how to convert an installed ubuntu desktop into an installable image [04:58] i just want to change my .screenrc settings without closing irssi (which is in screen) [04:58] selocol: it will still be running in the background in the detached screen [04:58] selocol: you can't transfer an application from 1 tty to another [04:59] selocol: I don't understand what problem you're actually trying to solve. Apart from having a screen process listed in your process list, how is "running it outside of screen" different from detaching? [04:59] could someone help, My sound is acting up. When I play any type of sound it will start off fine and then stutter continuously and finally crash my sound drivers. It's not app specific and it has only started (like all my other problems) after I upgraded to jaunty. Any help is appreciated. [04:59] um hi... wondering if i'm in the right place for someone to explain a bit about ubuntu to me... never used linux before [04:59] selocol: you can edit screen settings use C-a : [04:59] ok thanks guys [04:59] anyone here edit video lots? [04:59] jasonmchristos: i do not know you or fryguy but i think you have wore out your welcome [04:59] chuck_: i agree [04:59] billybigrigger: i'd say i do a fair bit [04:59] selocol: and you can use "C-a : source /home/you/.screenrc" to reload your screenrc on the fly, iirc [04:59] mi1: dunno. I am often in ##unix: every three days or so. Remember, do not mount /dev/sda5 or run any app that may write to it: if you do, it lowers your chances of data recovery. So use only the liveCD until you finish the data recovery. [04:59] i just bought a sony handycam and it records its HD video into .mts, am i screwed? [04:59] tonsofpcs, ???? [04:59] chuck_: shhh I am trying to get an answer to my question here [04:59] Cryptic_Donkey: well if I was technically sound with *nix im sure I could figure a way out to make ends meet...I was thinking about hacking through an arch system until I got one done but I do not have net access on that machine as of now to download packages necessary so I had to halt that [04:59] jasonmchristos: mondo might do what you want? [04:59] jasonmchristos: as far as I know that isn't doable. Best case would be to use disk backup/recovery software like dd. [04:59] okie. [04:59] video as .mts, cool [04:59] tonsofpcs, am i sol with .mts video? its a sony format or what? [04:59] mib_uasgme4u: yes. But first please change your nickname. See www.irchelp.com for how [05:00] vimpulse, one last thing, how can i remount back to normal mount option if in case i give up(not wanting to recover in the end) [05:00] tonsofpcs, what apps do you use in ubuntu? im in gnome [05:00] mi1: just reboot, and it will be back. [05:00] n2diy: brb i am going to look up mondo [05:00] is there tweetdeck but as a website? [05:00] vimpulse,i mean the mount optioin we set earlier [05:00] mi1: rebooting will reset it to rw. [05:00] jimisrvrox: I have an old dell dimension 4600 i would be willing to part with for 150 bucks [05:00] okie vimpulse [05:00] thanks [05:01] jimisrvrox: may i ask, what city do you live in?

[05:03] Loganhoup: look on google/launchpad for known issues with your sound card and see if workarounds have been discovered, or go out and spend $20 on a new sound card that is known to work. [05:03] Loganhoup: I don't have the time right now to actually troubleshoot, but try to figure out what exactly is crashing (it may be pulseaudio instead of the actual drivers) [05:03] tonsofpcs: not bad ain't flawless. it made me swear a lot of times. [05:03] tonsofpcs, i dont know if this is vlc or what but it seems like the video is really interlaced [05:03] billybigrigger: so try playback in a different player [05:03] yes, video tends to be interlaced. [05:03] fryguy: the video is interlaced [05:03] Loganhoup: if it's a driver-level problem I'd expect to see debug noise in dmesg [05:03] does anyone know of a good program to send mp3s to my Playstation 3????

[05:14] Strav, I'm wondering how I [05:14] ketch1: good. Now, final: you can unplug the wire and try dhclient [05:15] Strav, how I'll test the wireless. just unplug the ethernet cable or reboot? [05:15] NoobSeekingInfo: there's some on x-chat's site, x-chat's forum, and googling for "xchat plugins" returns quite a few results, at least some of which look helpful [05:15] danielqb: see earlier comments, and what mobo is this? [05:15] lstarnes: This defaults to 'Default Dictionary Server'. I would like to know where this "Default Dictionary Server" is located and what its address is. [05:15] thanks fryguy! [05:16] bullgard4: double-click it [05:16] Gen Question: I am running ubuntu 9.04, been a windows user for a long time, but recently every once and a while my ubuntu partition always has the CPU load go all the way up to 100%, it will stay like this either for a while or until i reboot, even if i close all of my programs the CPU usage will remain enormously high, I have a thinkpad t61, running a few special fx (compiz) but nothing intense, why would my computer be doing this? === Knives is now known as Guest1107 [05:16] ASUS [05:16] ketch1: ketch1 run iwconfig without any arguments to see if it's connected [05:16] ketch1: you don't have to reboot. just unplug and type sudo dhclient. [05:16] Fryguy: I do NOT want to burn a CD. is there not some utility I can run in Ubuntu to c? outk thishec [05:16] Ryanman: no [05:16] Trenter_: use system monitor to figure out what app is using the cpu [05:16] danielqb: "asus" is not a mobo model [05:16] fceu is using most of the cpu [05:16] fryguy: he'll have to make a dhcp request to the router before being connected. [05:17] Strav: not true [05:17] I am experiencing some random render error on fonts. Some times a whole window render like the text is blurred. Running Nvidia [05:17] (or setting the ip manually via ifconfig) [05:17] mzz: there are two instances of it, one at 90% cpu usage and the other at 89% usage [05:17] danielqb: look for "it87" in /etc/sensors.conf though [05:17] Strav: he'll have to make a dhcp request or otherwise allocate an IP and default route, but he'll still have layer1 and layer2 availability [05:17] hi everybody! [05:17] hi [05:17] Trenter_: I'm not sure what that is (unless it's the "FCE Ultra" emulator) [05:17] hola eduar [05:17] :) [05:18] Strav: iwconfig will show the equivalent of a wired connection when you are communicating with an AP [05:18] Hello ichik1 [05:18] hi klm [05:18] español? [05:18] how do i kill it, you are correct thats what it is [05:18] claro! [05:18] Trenter_: I'd expect an emulator to use most of the cpu while it's running and none of it while it's not [05:18] Is pidgin really being replaced in a future Ubuntu release? [05:18] the thing is, its gui isnt running [05:18] what's the difference between hardy and intrepid? [05:18] fryguy: agreed, but I doubt he only wants layer1 or 2. [05:18] does anybody know about the memory stick issue in jaunty? [05:19] Strav: i'm sure he doesn't, but he probably wants to check to make sure things are working correctly before bothering with dhclient. [05:19] Trenter_: then that sounds like an fceu bug or misfeature. Does cpu load drop if you exit the emulator completely? [05:19] but the point will be made, his wireless works fine. [05:19] ichik1, you're probably going to have to be more specific [05:19] Strav: there's lots of reasons why dhclient would fail, this will help to isolate issues better [05:19] * mzz wonders if there's a factoid for "the issue" [05:19] ichik1: Have you tried to reboot while the USB drive is conx to your USB port and see if it shows up? [05:19] fryguy: although dhclient can give some advices. [05:19] because asking about "the issue" never works [05:19] mzz: yeah, but I think the error is occuring if the emulator freezes and I have to force quit it, sometimes roms freeze [05:20] Strav: nothing that is applicable to wireless connections [05:20] I have a dell inspiron 6400 with a ricoh card reader, which reads SD cards ok, but it wouldn't recognize (on fdisk) MS from sony [05:20] Can anyone help me with a wireless connection issue? I'm trying to connect with WPA and but the connection manager keeps asking for the password again. [05:20] Trenter_: that sounds like your force quit never actually kills the emulator, just the frontend, and killing the emulator in process monitor would fix it [05:20] dmp1ce: try using wicd instead of networkmanager [05:20] ichik1, after you plug it in, try 'dmesg' from a terminal and see what it says at the end [05:20] w8 [05:21] a sec [05:21] Hmm I just clicked on windows in grub and all I am getting is Starting up ...??? [05:21] damn my pidgin just failes [05:21] falied [05:21] how do i find out what audio driver i am using... I want to install it [05:21] fryguy: in some point yes, he'll see if it's trying an authentification and such. I'm curious though, how would iwconfig give him some debug info? [05:21] ah shit u get me [05:21] lstarnes: This opens a dialog window called 'Edit Dictionary Source' and shows the following settings: Description='Default Dictionary Server', Transport='DictionaryServer', Hostname=dict.org, Port=2628. So I believe that the Internet address is http://www.dict.org/bin/Dict. What does the setting "Transport=DictionaryServer" mean? [05:22] hi in 9.04 when i do modprobe acerhdf (or any modprobe) i get a series of errors like "WARNING: All config files need .conf: /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist, it will be ignored in a future release." AND "FATAL: Error inserting acerhdf (/lib/modules/2.6.28-11-generic/kernel/drivers/misc/acerhdf.ko): Operation not permitted" why? [05:22] !language | eduar [05:22] eduar: Please watch your language and topic to help keep this channel family friendly. [05:22] bullgard4: that means that it uses the dictionary server protocol [05:22] lol dont swear in here? some of us think its profane? [05:22] mzz: yeah worked, apparently when you force quit the graphical window it does not quit the backend, they need to edit that code so if the front end isnt runing the backend shouldnt run either... [05:22] If I leave Ubuntu playing music for a few days straight, my ALSA seems to crash and I can not get my audio back up until I reboot Ubuntu. Does anyone know if this is a bug or if there is a fix?? [05:22] ok [05:22] Strav: it will list noise level and signal level, which is used to verify that he is actually communicating with an AP. using iwconfig commands tend to return sparse or no output so you can't tell if they are successful or not. [05:22] luddite, try running that as root (put a sudo in front of it) [05:22] lstarnes: Thank you for explaining. [05:22] can anyone assist with vuze or azureus? [05:22] Trenter_: that depends. It is sometimes a feature for the backend to keep running (so that you can reattach a new instance of the frontend when the gui crashes, for example) [05:23] Trenter_: I'm not familiar with this particular emulator at all, so perhaps it is a misfeature here. [05:23] bullgard4 whats up? [05:23] never mind. Forgot there was the link quality, rx packets failed and such... and mainly, that those could reflect a bad driver or some other problems.) [05:23] ok, thanks! [05:23] bullgard4: whats the problem? [05:23] so.. my pidgin crashes once in a while , can anyone explain [05:23] Pandora: Whats wrong with vuze [05:23] Its their a away to keep the settings of "extra" on the apperance of compiz after switching to none? [05:23] Is there somewhere to get a list of ubottu's keywords? [05:23] h00k : i tried that same fatal error. [05:23] eduar: strace it or run it from a terminal to see if it quits with a meaningful message [05:24] !ubottu|keith [05:24] keith: Hi! I'm #ubuntu's favorite infobot, you can search my brain yourself at http://ubottu.com/factoids.cgi - Usage info: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuBots [05:24] If I leave Ubuntu playing music for a few days straight, my ALSA seems to crash and I can not get my audio back up until I reboot Ubuntu. Does anyone know if this is a bug or if there is a fix?? This issue has happened in 8.10 and now in 9.04. [05:24] keith: that's not a list, but iirc it's close [05:24] hi to all, i am getting error for wireless connection as ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): wlan0: link is not ready [05:24] installed and ran fine, but after closing cannot find shortcut to re-open.. [05:24] haha, thanks [05:24] !love [05:24] Love is like racing across the frozen tundra on a snowmobile which flips over, trapping you underneath. At night, the ice-weasels come. [05:24] cloud-nist: it's going to be driver dependant, check google/launchpad to see if there are specific issues with your driver, and if not, you should probably create a new issue for it. [05:25] ketch1: so in the end, fryguy is right, at this point, if you set the correct essid, you should already see some connection info in iwconfig... mind pasting them? [05:25] Pandora: it should be under Applications internet [05:25] not there, did a search and cannot find it there either.. [05:25] ok ill try, hte problem is i dont know when is it going to attack again, maybe now maybe not [05:26] IS their a way of keeping compiz settings after switching from extra to none? [05:26] hurm i need help here.... why i cant open synaptic and run update manager after enter my password.... and ended with "Failed to run /usr/sbin/synaptic as user root" [05:26] fryguy: Yes, I have thought about it potentially being my sound card as I am using an oldie 16bit Creative PCI card, upgrading to a new card will help me isolate the issue. How would I go about creating a new issue for it as you call it? [05:26] Is Ubuntu 9.04 stable? [05:26] nope [05:27] cloud-nist: go to launchpad (launchpad.ubuntu.com i think, just google it), and create one [05:27] got it [05:27] ty [05:27] sardano: define "stable" [05:27] Ubuntu 0.94 is stable for me, lol [05:27] sardano: I guess that depends on your definition of "stable" and possibly your hardware [05:27] it might help to know I didn't use apt-get.. i installed it manually from site [05:27] Pandora: look in system /preferences/mainmenu/ internet. if not there type vuze in terminal and see if it still there [05:27] sardano: It is officially stable, and works great for me [05:27] !bug | cloud-nist [05:27] cloud-nist: If you find a bug in Ubuntu or any of its derivatives, please file a bug report at: http://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu - Bugs in/wishes for the bots can be filed at http://launchpad.net/ubuntu-bots [05:27] Ubuntu 9.04 on my Thinkpad T61 is a lot better than 8.10 was, had lots of tweaking to get it to work and 9.04 was close to perfect [05:27] ive already had to pin 4 packages from intrepid to make 9.04 work properly [05:27] An app I use in Wine does not play well in 9.04, which I am not really pleased about. [05:27] stable: don't lock, without basic bugs [05:28] This is where to come if I need help installing Gentoo, right? :-p [05:28] so use 8.10 [05:28] sardano: will depend on hardware then [05:28] sardano: yes it's stable [05:28] Everything else is seemless... [05:28] Asus P5Q and Dell Vostro 1310 [05:28] keith: well, you could ask me, actually, but doing it in this channel would be a bit rude to the channel [05:28] Is there a quick way to reset the sound controller without rebooting? (My sound just stopped working and selecting the device says it's already in use by another app) [05:28] hi to all, i am getting error for wireless connection as ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): wlan0: link is not ready [05:28] iamtechno: yes, in a way, try using fusion-icon (apt-get install fusion-icon) and then, at the bottom of the tabs on the left, you'll have some preferences where you can set a file-based config. [05:28] On my lappy all is well with the new distro... [05:29] 9.04 uses beta for audacity that doesnt work, beta for privoxy that highly recommends against its usage.. it's laughable [05:29] sardano: I'd try to find someone with the same gpu to confirm it's working properly (desktop effects and everything) [05:29] mzz: I was kidding, though I am in the process of attempting to. (I don't need any help at the moment) [05:29] debam: check the output of dmesg for anything related to that [05:29] Strav: let me try that [05:29] lstarnes, this is from dmesg only [05:29] I am still trying to figure out the Debian reference ubottu made with the Ice-Weasel comment. :| [05:29] (if I remember well, there are some options to import or export your configs too) [05:30] can't install both librdf0-dev and libsvn-dev simultaneous cause of broken packages. yeah 9.04 not so stable [05:30] cloud-nist: it's debian's version of firefox without mozilla's official branding [05:30] hurm i need help here.... why i cant open synaptic and run update manager after enter my password.... and ended with "Failed to run /usr/sbin/synaptic as user root" [05:30] debam: what about /var/log/syslog ? [05:31] lstarnes: yeah I know, but ubutto did not convey a heart-felt message. [05:31] mzz: XFXForce 9400GT (NVidia) with 512mb work fine with Ubuntu 8 [05:31] lstarnes: with a discusting xpm icon that'll never scale if thing still are like they were. [05:31] mzz: I'm not make a test with Kubuntu 9.04 yet. [05:31] iamtechno: not a direct answer i realize, but if you want more finegrained control over your compiz, install compizconfig-settings-manager (ccsm) and save your settings to a flat-file instead of gconf (that way you can take it wherever you want/need it) ... the default you have now is probably simple-ccsm and i don't think it has that feature [05:31] Being under a flipped snow mobile only to be welcomed by ice-weasels does not sound like love to me. [05:32] Maybe I read too much into things :| [05:32] which chm viewer is better? xchm or gnochm? [05:32] glitsj16: this is the same thing you get with fusion-icon [05:32] gnochm works fine and is simple [05:32] but im here to keith [05:33] chetnick: there is also a firefox addon that lets you view chm inside it. [05:33] How do you list the displays Xorg has? [05:33] chetnick: okular package from debian sid has the capability to read tons of formats, including chm. Ubuntu people didn't had time to make a proper package of it since before 8.10 though. [05:34] distrotubux: I think you want "xrandr"? [05:34] glitsj16: I already have ccsm installed. Didn't know it had an import/export option [05:34] hi [05:34] hi [05:34] Strav: i thought fusion-icon is independent on what backend you use to configure compiz, it only starts/ends it no ? [05:34] cloud-nist: well thanks, i will try that, i am using gnochm, but sometimes it does not display contents correct. So i came acros xchm which i did not try, that is why i ask. [05:34] is anyone familiar with port triggering? I was wondering from security perspective, is all of the ranges forwarded or only the ones "triggered" from my computer? [05:34] does anybody has problems with remote desktop on jaunty??? [05:34] is portforwarding more secure than port triggering? [05:34] how do you install say an upgrade from lke python 2.5.2 -> python 2.6.2? [05:34] Is there a reason to make the boot partition non-journaled? [05:35] chetnick: Anytime [05:35] iamtechno: well in that case your good to go [05:35] AFK [05:35] how can i get network activity stats for a specific nic (eth0) stats like connection speed to router and current upload/download activity? either a command or a file to read would be nice [05:35] Hi Guys! [05:35] glitsj16: kk, trying the import/export feature now [05:36] Is it possible to make a taskbar item have a relative location instead of coordinates? I'm using the same Ubuntu install from different resolution displays, and it causes the bars to go haywire. I'd like to be able to tie the clock to the furthermost right position, for example. [05:36] glitsj16: ain't sure of that, but I'm certain it has everything in it's depedencies to manage the config of compiz. [05:36] Suhail, debian hasnt built that package yet, and doing so might cause problems is you dont alt-install. i have a package for 2.6.1 that automatically alt-installs but any modules must be installed manually [05:36] Strav: yes probably [05:37] I use Ubuntu 9.04 and Opera doesn't work. Any way to get it working? === RoAk is now known as RoAkSoAx [05:38] ankur_: have you tried starting opera from a terminal to catch any errors it might throw? [05:38] glitsj16, I am a novice. Can you tell me how to do that? [05:39] hacker_kid: first take a look at /proc/net/dev for basic counters [05:39] ankur_: sure, can you open a terminal ? when you have one open, just run "opera" and see what shows up [05:39] Yup! I can do that [05:39] mpontillo, thank you [05:40] It gives something as segmentation fault, with two lines of error [05:40] What to do next? [05:40] no answer? [05:40] ankur_: okay great, just paste the error on paste.ubuntu.com and put the link up here so people can see what's going on [05:40] mpontillo, useful counters but i need to know the current kb/sec (or mb) upload and download in use, not the total [05:41] Okay! I shall do it [05:41] hacker_kid: you can calculate that by diffing the totals over time... [05:41] mpontillo, i could continually read that file, but i was hoping a tool was already made [05:41] mpontillo, i could, what about the connection speed (to the router not to the net) [05:42] Hello I am folliwing this guide to install gtk+ extra: http://library.gnome.org/devel/gtk/unstable/gtk-building.html and when I get to the configure part I get this error: checking for a BSD-compatible install... /usr/bin/install -c [05:42] checking whether build environment is sane... yes [05:42] checking for gawk... no [05:42] checking for mawk... mawk [05:42] checking whether make sets $(MAKE)... yes [05:42] TWP-SirStaal: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. [05:42] checking whether build environment is sane... yes [05:42] hacker_kid: for that, you can run "ethtool eth0" (unfortunately requires root, not sure if there is another tool available that doesn't) [05:42] is there a place I could find something like "bug reports over time" graph/stats for every ubuntu version? Just wanna check something about 9.04 [05:42] how do you search for packages via apt-get? [05:42] mpontillo: can't that be run via sudo? [05:42] glitsj16, this is the link http://paste.ubuntu.com/166507/ [05:42] lstarnes: yes, that's what I meant. [05:42] ankur_: okay thanks, taking a look [05:42] Suhail: apt-cache search package-name [05:42] Suhail, apt-cache search [05:43] mpontillo, i can subprocess and grant just that command root and leave the application unprivileged :) thanks again [05:43] Suhail: or aptitude search package-name [05:43] thank you guys [05:43] hey guys [05:43] lstarnes: (it sounded like hacker_kid was doing this from a script earlier, and I didn't assume the script was running as root) [05:43] Is there a quick way to reset the sound controller without rebooting? (My sound just stopped working and selecting the device says it's already in use by another app) [05:43] Hello I am folliwing this guide to install gtk+ extra: http://library.gnome.org/devel/gtk/unstable/gtk-building.html and when I get to the configure part I get an error. This is the error:checking for C compiler default output... configure: error: C compiler cannot create executables [05:43] TWP-SirStaal: you forgot to install build-essential [05:44] i am having problem when I load a CD, it claims: "Could not start process Unable to create io-slave: klauncher said" Unknown protocal [05:44] mpontillo, you assumed correctly, thanks for your help. i never run scripts as root if i can help it :) [05:44] so how do I get that one? [05:44] nilihanth: sudo /sbin/alsa force-reload [05:44] nilihanth alsa force-reload/pulseaudio restart [05:44] any solutions [05:44] TWP-SirStaal: sudo apt-get install build-essential [05:44] TWP-SirStaal: and why are you compiling gtk+ extra? [05:44] i am having problem when I load a CD, it claims: "Could not start process Unable to create io-slave: klauncher said" Unknown protocal [05:44] Ah thought it would be something like that thanks [05:45] I am going to get SciGraphica and it needs it to work [05:45] TWP-SirStaal: install the package libgtkextra-1.0-0 [05:45] TWP-SirStaal: it may also need libtgtkextra-dev [05:45] TWP-SirStaal: oops, libgtkextra-dev [05:45] ankur_: do you have java jre installed ? check in synaptic and search for that , loks like opera doesn't find those === __guest is now known as bitfish [05:46] I have that installed, well, let me check for it [05:46] ok I will take that one too [05:46] ankur_: specifically, look for sun-java6-jre [05:46] Thanks allot [05:46] TWP-SirStaal: if those packages work, you will not need to compile gtk+ extra [05:47] How can I export ubuntu public key for a file? [05:47] hacker_kid: almost forgot; another really useful command is "nm-tool" (but it won't work if network manager is not being used) [05:47] Yeah! I have Sun-Java6-jre version 6-13-1 installed [05:47] mpontillo, thanks [05:47] how do i determine what what wireless key to use? [05:47] So in that pakage gtk+extra got installed? [05:47] TWP-SirStaal: you should also check the package manager for programs and libraries before resorting to third-party packages or compiling [05:47] or type of key? [05:47] TWP-SirStaal: libgtkextra-1.0-0 is gtk+ extra [05:47] does anybody has problems with remote desktop on jaunty??? [05:47] chuck_it might help to know I didn't use apt-get.. i installed it manually from site [05:48] aha [05:48] TWP-SirStaal: libgtkextra-dev has the development files for it [05:48] glitsj16, I have Sun-java6-jre 6-13-1 installed already [05:48] mpontillo, network manager is being used in this case, but we will probably move to very very minimal debian installs in the near future [05:48] What to do next? [05:49] ankur_: okay, there's a LD_PRELOAD in your error paste, not sure where you can try to undo that, opera seems not to like it getting started that way [05:49] So, how to start it the 'other' way? [05:49] ankur_ : if that is about Opera then preferences>advaced>content >plugin options>find new and restart Opera after that [05:50] I shall do it [05:50] Hi, I've got a friend running linuxmint, and I was wondering since it uses Ubuntu as it's base does it use the same repositories as we do, or does it have it's own seperate ones? [05:50] Help with File and directory permissions Plz [05:51] zavcet, I can't find the path you specified [05:51] ffadmraven: Why not ask them in #linuxmint [05:51] scrap: what do you need to do? [05:51] zvacet: thx for jumping in btw, haven't seen opera's settings in ages personally [05:52] ankur_ : in Opera>tools>preferences....... [05:52] guess that would help, huh? [05:52] Sorry! Opera isn't getting strated [05:52] I have made a new mount point as root then added a group to the directory, I put my user name in that group but it still wont allow me to access the directory [05:52] Scrap: do a "man chmod" [05:52] How to start that first?

[05:59] Drikan: yeah [05:59] looking for help on wireless for U8.10 in a HP laptop with an AMD64 [05:59] chuck_, stinky part is, 8.10 had no issues with the sound. Worked right out of the install. Jaunty is a different story. [05:59] iamtechno: nice, now you can tweak your heart out with the thought of having a fallback option heh [05:59] ankur_: http://paste.ubuntu.com/166511/ [05:59] ketch: gotta tell us what the actual problem is [05:59] chuck_, Thanks. I'll look into the Alsa and OSS thing [05:59] Drikan although I am only looking in the system-administration-users and groups gui [05:59] arvind_khadri: I had got a .deb package [05:59] Gnea: well the issue isnt just with DVD's is any Disk i place in the drive none mount and the system locks up shortly after [06:00] Drikan: ouch. tried a new cable and/or drive? [06:00] ankur_: ok check what zvacet told you [06:00] glitsj16: yeah. The big reason is so I could play ut2k4 with out having a black screen to stare at and an unreponsive kill and mouse [06:00] I was working with Strav for about an hour (about 30 min ago) He had me run a bunch of commands on command line and use the binpaste [06:00] Yup! I am doing it. Actually, I am not understanding the code thing. [06:00] any1 know how to decrease the time of "drag & drop on desktop!?" it takes like 3sec to popup the minimized windows on taskbar when I drag sumthing to it. It's too long!!! [06:00] * Gnea doing another 8.10->9.04 upgrade [06:01] nilihanth did you install oss because it does not come as part of jaunty you might be thinking of pulseaudio [06:01] kbp: turn off desktop effects [06:01] kbp: what kind of system do you have? [06:01] Ubuntu 8.04 [06:01] Guys! from where to get to the path given? [06:01] Gnea: yea i just tryed a new cable a few hrs ago. still the drive works just fine in vista but dose the lock up in linux. I want forum diving and others that have the drive are working fine. but there using the a driver for a slightly newer drive [06:01] kbp: I meant what cpu, ram size, etc [06:02] Dual Core 1.6, 4GB RAM [06:02] (laptop) [06:02] Should I go to system>prefrences>.... [06:02] SATA 2S RAID controller for ubuntu 8.10 [06:02] kbp: definatly kill desktop effects [06:03] Drikan: trying to remember... is that a laptop or desktop? [06:03] iamtechno: I use a lot of desktop effects (Compiz fusion), which one to kill? [06:03] Scrap: while your loged in on your user not root do a ls -l on the directory your trying to get in to [06:03] Gnea: Desktop [06:03] chuck_, my sound app from Preferences was on autodetect, which didn't work. I went through the list and the only thing that worked was called: HDA Intel STAC92xx Analag (OSS) [06:03] Trying to get my wireless to connect to a WPA network I installed wicd but when I try to connect it says Validating Authentication... for awhile and then quits without connecting. Any other ideas on what I can do? [06:03] kpb: turn desktop effects from whatever to none [06:03] Drikan: i wonder if it'd make a difference if you changed the settings for it in bios [06:04] arvind_khadri: I read the contents. But I don't understand how to do that. from where am I supposed to go to that path? Can you help? [06:04] Gnea: how do you meen? [06:04] Gena, I've only been able to use a cable on this HP laptop dv8000 AMD64 since Breezy. Strav, I think, thought we were close to having it. But the wireless didnot pickup. So I rebooted and came up without the cable in. No joy. Rebooted again with the cable and here I am. [06:04] oops Gnea [06:04] Drikan : here it is drwxrwx--- 4 root webadmin 4096 2009-05-06 07:47 web [06:04] hello [06:04] who can use remote desktop in jaunty???????????????/ [06:04] Scrap: that as root [06:05] is ext4 a reliable filesystem [06:05] ankur_ : so you can go to the Opera? If yes then tools>preferences>advanced>content>plugin options>and then put java in right path [06:05] Drikan: well, most desktops just 'auto' detect the drives - if you set it as UDMA, specifically, perhaps the problem would go away [06:05] ankur_: yeah check out where java is [06:05] Drikan: neg that is as normal user [06:05] iamtechno: so on your one (without desktop effect), the minimized windows pops up instantly when u drag sumthing to it? [06:05] Scrap: check out the exit out of root and do the same thing [06:05] chuck_, woah! how odd...that OSS item shows up twice in the list. The 2nd one worked! lol. I don't know what that means but I hope I don't have to do this everytime I login [06:05] Where java is? You mean, the path to it? [06:05] ketch: are you up to 9.04? [06:05] Gnea, 8.10 [06:05] ankur_ :yes [06:05] ketch: can you pastebin the contents of /etc/network/interfaces?

Not even your family. [06:06] how the fuck do i get my keyboard right_ [06:06] kbp: yes but I also have a very powerful system too. [06:06] do it now mponillo [06:06] Suhail: aptitude show package-name [06:06] Suhail: aptitude show [06:06] !language > hylke [06:06] hylke, please see my private message [06:06] i mean compared to ext3 [06:06] how do i get my keyboard right [06:07] not with all the à- at the wrong places çS === owen1 is now known as dan [06:07] Amarok___: Who say ext3 was reliable too? I'm using ext4 right now and I haven't experienced any issues that were outlined on the 'net. === raiden is now known as Guest47441 [06:07] ketch: just trying to move things along, I can't help right this minute. but if you have anything in /etc/network/interfaces other than references to "lo", network manager will not be able to manage your interfaces. we already determined that network manager was not managing them. [06:08] iamtechno: I turned desktop effect off, still same issue (and I timed it, it's actually 1 sec) [06:08] ketch: have you tried wicd? [06:08] Amarok___: I say you should go for ext4. Production Servers? Please use ext3. [06:08] iamtechno: how strong is ur system? Core i7? [06:08] ankur_: look in your .opera folder for a file javapath.txt and see if zvacet's proposed changes can be set there [06:08] nilihanth glad to here Sound is the biggest headache in linux at least for me [06:09] mpontillo, http://paste.ubuntu.com/166517/ [06:09] kpb: hey i've got to go.

[06:09] iamtechno: ok c ya (I love 4870) [06:09] glitsj16: I am trying to do that. (Actually I am hitting in the dark, well, not a bad start for learning) [06:09] Gnea, wicd does not show on Synaptic Package Manager [06:10] for some reason when i use screen i can never use backspace it just says "Wuff -- Wuff" [06:10] ankur_: take your time, we'll flash a torch if you're not back in 30 minutes [06:10] kpb: Sorry I couldn't be of more assistance. Yeah the 4870 rocks. u might try asking someone else. [06:11] Suhail: what about ctrl+h? [06:11] Okay! Thank you glitsj16 [06:11] ketch: ah yes, it's been introduced in jaunty... http://wicd.sourceforge.net/download.php [06:11] ankur_: http://www.opera.com/support/kb/view/584/ [06:11] iamtechno: dw [06:11] yo [06:11] lstarnes: same [06:11] Suhail: what happens if you type some characters then backspace? [06:11] lstarnes: same thing [06:12] well thanks mobi-sheep i was just a littel reluctant i have heard ppl say it isn't as stable as ext3 but alls well now thanks man [06:12] lstarnes: do you know how to fix that? [06:12] SATA 2S RAID controller [06:12] ketch: not sure if wicd will actually work or not, but for wireless, it's way better than network manager [06:12] Gnea, at this point if I went after that url I'm afraid I'd never see you again [06:12] Suhail: I'm not sure [06:12] i was wondering what a tiny star inside the square of a package in SYNAPTIC means [06:12] join #ubuntu-au [06:12] ketch: pessimism won't get you very far ;) [06:12] lstarnes: also it nevers takes on the characteristics in my bash_profile [06:13] can i extract a rar with ubuntu [06:13] Amarok___: No problem. Have fun with ext4. New stuffs for you. :) [06:13] krammer_: yes. [06:13] Gnea, I've been futzing around with wireless on since [06:13] Breezy [06:13] ketch: yeah, i've been doing it for quite awhile too... wicd is worth trying [06:14] krammer_ : install p7zip p7zip-full p7zip-rar and after that jusr right click on rar file [06:14] ketch: if all else fails, just make sure you have the networkmanager .deb laying around [06:14] can someone help me with lp0 add-on pci card? [06:14] I think you're too advanced for this poor newbie [06:15] gabox: what's the problem? plug it in and...? [06:15] too advanced... [06:15] Rickster: i believe the star refers to an upgradable package [06:15] Gnea, i get an error message when i insert a cd or dvd no hal [06:15] #ubuntu [06:15] ok [06:15] Hey does anyone here use the DccAssist plugin for XChat and might be able to tell me how it works for them?

[06:19] raid problems help [06:19] works fine with pista [06:19] heh [06:19] does any1 know how to change the interval delay for "drag & drop"!? It takes like 1 sec to popup the minimized windows when I drag sumthing to it. It's too long for me!!! [06:19] crash1hd after installing linux could you boot into it [06:19] chuck_: not sure dont think so [06:19] never actually tried until today [06:19] Gnea, I honestly dont know [06:20] kbp: install a better wm, like windowmaker, fluxbux, xfce or enlightenment [06:20] well you're running some OS right now... which one? [06:20] problem is that windows wasnt / isnt seeing the whoe hdd [06:20] mjm52: laptop [06:20] mjm52: windows [06:20] krammer_: do you have any logs with errors about it? [06:20] ah [06:20] :) [06:20] crash1hd so you had windows then installed linux ontop of it [06:20] no [06:20] What is a good way to be able to send myself emails from the command line. So that way I can have myself emailed when certain things happen on my system [06:20] krammer_: are you sure? what does /var/log/syslog say when you insert a dvd? [06:20] chuck_: I had a 1tb drive that I installed windows onto the first 20gigs then installed ubuntu on the rest [06:20] Gnea: what does wm mean? (I'm on Ubuntu 8.04) [06:20] chuck_: ubuntu is working but windows wont boot [06:21] kbp: Windowmanager [06:21] kbp: window manager [06:21] Gnea, i did it modprobe, now what [06:21] ;) [06:21] gabox: see if it showed up - check with the dmesg command [06:21] does anyone know why when i hit ctrl+alt+f1 my screen turns black and begins to blur to white. anyone know how to fix this or why it is happening [06:21] Gnea: how to find out which wm I'm using !? [06:21] kbp: you're probably using gnome+metacity [06:21] :) [06:21] glitsj16: What should I name the file? [06:21] kbp: did you install standard ubuntu or something else? [06:21] Crash, what does it say under title Windows XP in /boot/grub/menu.lst [06:22] ankur_: javapath.txt [06:22] And would there be only path in that file? In simple text? [06:22] Gnea: yes just standard Ubuntu ( & Compiz fusion - is Compiz fusion a wm?) [06:22] should say something like [06:22] rootnoverify(hdx,y) [06:22] mjm52: I will check will be a min as I just loaded bartpe to see what it sees [06:22] I have a HP Dv3-1075us and I just installed Jaunty x64, everything works but the sound, and I can't seem to find anyone else's support that works for me, would anyone be willing to assist me on this issue? [06:22] ahh yes it says rootnoverify(hd0,0) [06:22] ankur_: correct, just the one [06:22] Well, I am doing it [06:22] anything else? [06:22] kbp: no, compiz is just an overglorified gui effects thing [06:23] monstah: ok let me google it lol I'm a newbie in Linux lol [06:23] like makeactive or chanloader +1 [06:23] yes both [06:23] hmmm [06:23] Gnea: ok let me google more lol [06:23] kbp: like i'm stopping you lol [06:23] kbp: hehe if you installed standard ubuntu you have gnome as your desktop environment and metacity as wm [06:23] Gnea, gotta go thanks for your time [06:23] as long as windows is on your first partition of your first HD it should be working [06:23] Gnea: so which wm comes with standard ubuntu? [06:23] krammer_: cheers and good luck [06:23] does anyone know why when i hit ctrl+alt+f1 my screen turns black and begins to blur to white. anyone know how to fix this or why it is happening [06:23] kbp: gnome and metacity [06:23] kbp: apt-get install openbox [06:23] ;) [06:24] sounds like a bad video driver [06:24] Cousss: sounds like your video driver is setup incorrectly [06:24] ankur_: have you had time to check that link zvacet gave you ? about java-common (that has to be installed as wellà [06:24] thanks ill check the settings again [06:24] Crash, double check your partition layout in gparted [06:24] mjm52: thats what doesnt make any sense [06:24] monstah: so openbox is the best wm ? [06:24] the other thing that might be wrong... [06:25] monstah: which one is the best? lol [06:25] dang it the second time ubuntu crashed on me [06:25] * Gnea considers e17 the best wm - but i'm not everyone ;) [06:25] whats wrong? === ScottG is now known as op [06:25] kbp: haha that has to be your own choice, i love openbox [06:25] if you told grub to install itself on hd0,0 instead of just hd0, it may have overwritten windows' boot record === op is now known as Scottg [06:25] mjm52: its ok I had to use testdrive to fix it [06:25] i try and use wine with guildwars [06:25] RichiV: ice is ice, ubuntu won't stop it! ;) [06:25] and the graphics freeze? [06:25] oh, what's testdrive? [06:25] kbp: i'd suggest you google screenshots or something for a good look of the different WM's === Scottg is now known as ScottG [06:26] mjm52: it fixes partitions long story short something had happened and screwed up all the partitions [06:26] RichiV: is this an upgrade or fresh install? [06:26] Is there any tool for imaging partitions or making backups of linux partitions? (Like with Acronis TrueImage under Windows) [06:26] Hi, I just upgraded to 9.04 from my previous install on 8.04 and i seem to be having a problem. I can't set any resolution higher than 1024x786. When i was using 8.04 i had a program called "displayconfig-gtk" that would let me force a large resolution, but that isn't included in 9.04. So are there any other ways to force a larger resolution? [06:26] What is a good way to be able to send myself emails from the command line. So that way I can have myself emailed when certain things happen on my system [06:26] oh nice :) [06:26] mjm52: it was able to repair them so I could log into windows [06:26] good to know [06:26] mjm52: [06:26] i mean ubuntu [06:26] monstah: if I install new wm, does that mean I have to re-config the setting for Compiz Fusion again? (it took me a day to config it so I really dun wanna lose it) [06:26] Gnea: thank you Gnea [06:26] Gnea: this is the most current version [06:26] mjm52: its in the universal supository [06:26] mjm52: u there...u were helping me out ealiere with the windows parititons [06:26] so now you get into windows ok? [06:26] SoylentYellow: i've found clonezilla to fit that bill [06:26] mjm52: very very powerfull program [06:26] kbp: i don't know about compiz, ain't using it [06:26] :) [06:26] Gnea: so ist he Wine and driver for my comp ATi MObi Radeon X600 [06:27] mjm52: no this is happening after doing the fixes [06:27] crash1hd here is what i am getting at when you install windows it throws files everywhere on the hard drive without defraging the drive before a linux install you risk over writing window files 9 out of 10 times this will not happen it's the 10th time that get's you [06:27] mjm52: its booting straight to windows...i need to be able to choose between teh 2 in grub [06:27] RichiV: what i'm wondering is, is the .wine/ setup fresh or did you create it with a previous installation? [06:27] hi [06:27] Gnea, i find this "[ 17.683548] lp0: using parport0 (polling)." with dmesg [06:27] kbp: guess compiz only works with gnome+metacity [06:27] Gnea: its fresh [06:27] chuck_: ahh [06:27] Gnea straight from the site [06:27] how can i open a file as a different user from nautilus [06:27] gabox: okay, try plugging a printer in and reload it [06:27] my nvidia driver won't let me use higher resolutions than 1360x768 and when I use resolutions higher than 1024x768 the viewable area smaller than the resolution is [06:27] imma try GW again without the drivers installed [06:27] monstah: .... ok let me figure out how to change the setting of metacity [06:28] clonzilla? This can be run from Linux session and has a GUI? I'm looking for something easy to use like Acronis products under Windows or similar apps that do system backups under Windows. [06:28] chuck_: mjm52: the good news is that now bartpe is seeing the C drive as 20 gigs (it wasnt before) [06:28] oh that's pretty strange, Crash [06:28] kbp: just make sure you enter your new wm command into compiz settings under "Window decorations" [06:28] Hello, how can I know which ubuntu version I have installed? [06:28] mjm52: boot.ini is ok too [06:29] celling : lsb_release -a [06:29] glitsj16: yea sure... thank you dude i'll check [06:29] zvacet: Thank you. [06:29] np [06:30] openoffice has something similar like word art? [06:30] how do i check and see what driver is being used for my audio devices> [06:30] What is a good way to be able to send myself emails from the command line. So that way I can have myself emailed when certain things happen on my system [06:30] crash1hd: when you chose windows in grub it goes to the starting windows screen correct then hangs [06:30] how do i know if i am a 64 bit comp? [06:30] i'm going to try out ubuntu [06:30] are there any supportive people i can depend on [06:31] chuck_: it doesnt even get that far it goes black and says Starting up... [06:31] kbp: another nice place to set something up in compiz is the "crash handler", so it can start a wm if it fails [06:31] painted82: a couple hundred. [06:31] cool [06:31] painted82, Not really, just us in here [06:31] openoffice has something similar like word art in ms word? [06:31] now does ubuntu recognize intel raid out of the box [06:31] or do i need special drivers [06:31] glitsj16, zvacet, arvind_khadri, Thank You all! Thank you for bearing me all the time, when I had almost been bugging you. Though the problem hasn't got solved, I have got an idea how to do it. And I shall do in the evening. Now, I gotta attend my classes, so, I have to go now. One again, Thank you! [06:31] my nvidia driver won't let me use higher resolutions than 1360x768 and when I use resolutions higher than 1024x768 the viewable area smaller than the resolution is [06:31] chuck_: just did a chkdsk and now doing a defrag in bart pe just to be on the safe side [06:32] and I don't know how to fix it [06:32] I've tried several tools, but all these Linux tools do simple folder backups. There is nothing like all those WIndows tools that can image your entire system while you are running it. [06:32] ankur_: okay, enjoy the class and the ubuntu, see you [06:32] See ya glitsj16! [06:32] bye! Have a nice time ahead [06:32] SoylentYellow: have you looked at mondo? [06:32] Does anyone have any recommendations or info they'd be willing to share about dcc plugins for XChat? [06:33] SoylentYellow, i could be wrong but i believe you can't image the system while you are running it due to filesystem limitations [06:33] billybigrigger: check out mondo, I think you can. [06:33] SoylentYellow, not because of ubuntu itself, but because of ext3/ext4 i think this might be possible soon with btrfs [06:33] ScottG: http://tombuntu.com/index.php/2008/10/21/sending-email-from-your-system-with-ssmtp/ might be of interest to you [06:34] how do you turn off the multiple desktop thing? i'm tired of accidently scrolling to the other desktop when i'm surfing the interweb [06:34] I have a strange problem where left alt and right alt are activating by themselves without any keyboard input ubuntu 9.04 [06:34] glitsj16: actually is there any "import/export" feature in Compiz Fuson? like I can make a backup file of the settings and restore later when I need (i.e. dont have to waste time to re-configure it again) [06:35] Elixir: right click on an open space in your panel, then properties, and reduce your panels to one. [06:35] * NoobSeekingInfo sees a lot of plugins listed at xchat.org, but doesn't know which are good for helping with dcc in Xchat [06:35] Gnea, thanks see u later [06:35] kbp: in the compizconfig-settings-manager there is yes, not in little-ccsm i think [06:35] gabox: cheers [06:35] hey guys i am having a littel problem a couple of weeks back i installed ubuntu but as i was then having display problem i used the xforcevesa mode to boot into the live cd and it installed my system in xforcevesa mode now how do i get out of the xforcevesa mode the best resolution it gives me is 800x600 its a bit to chunky pls guys can some one help me [06:35] i dont have an option for the "panels" [06:36] wait, nevermind [06:36] thank you n2diy [06:36] kbp: i think the default settings manager uses gconf as backend, easier with a flat flie import/export facility like in compizconfig-settings-manager [06:36] Oh ok, so system imaging = no-go under Linux. Can you tell me which folders I need to backup in case of drive failure? [06:36] guys [06:37] kbp: *file; you sure wouldn't want flies in your compiz [06:37] glitsj16: ok reading this over thanks! [06:37] Elixir: how about customize panel? [06:37] Gnea: well there is no option to set it to UDMA thow i wonder is this could be an issue. i have the drive linux is on connected to an PATA to SATA adapter and the DVDRAM drive is connected to the PATA port on the MB. think that could be an issue? [06:37] glitsj16: I think i've found that window. So is the "export" of the profile is what I need? [06:37] ScottG: you're welcome, have it set up like that since 7.10, works just fine [06:37] i figured it out, you have to right click the bottom right thing that shows the desktops, and click "columns" to 1 [06:37] kbp: yes thats it [06:38] glitsj16: and lower is the "backend" that you were talking about [06:38] glitsj16: what should I do with it? [06:38] hey guys i am having a littel problem a couple of weeks back i installed ubuntu but as i was then having display problem i used the xforcevesa mode to boot into the live cd and it installed my system in xforcevesa mode now how do i get out of the xforcevesa mode the best resolution it gives me is 800x600 its a bit to chunky pls guys can some one help me [06:38] Drikan: might be... and i didn't get a chance to tell you - for cd/dvdrom drives, it would be a PIO mode, not UDMA (for disks) [06:38] what program can i use to burn an audio_ts and video_ts directory? its a dvd [06:38] How do i add a user to a group? [06:38] Drikan: sorry about that [06:39] kbp: correct, set the backend to flat file and export your settings to produce a backup, that's all it takes [06:39] systm : sudo adduser username group [06:39] zvacet: thanks. [06:39] Drikan: i've never used an adapter like that, so i imagine its effects to be quite wild at times - i'd try it without [06:39] Gnea: well in any case that is no option to set that and the rom supports pio 1-4 [06:40] exit [06:40] systm:np [06:40] well that didnt fix my audio issue. [06:40] well that would meen disconnecting the drive from sata and connecting it to the pata [06:40] Drikan: right. depending on the drive and the speed it matches up with the system, it will probably be 3 or 4 [06:41] Drikan: couldn't hurt [06:41] Amarok___, You'd need to install the correct drivers for the Vid Card [06:41] guys i have a creative sound card [06:41] do u know a place where i can get linux drivers for it [06:41] Gnea: how do you think that would effect the startup? [06:41] unless you leave flea power laying around [06:41] Drikan: not at all [06:41] ok ill try that [06:41] systm: did you restart pulseaudio after adding yourself to the pulse groups ? [06:41] glitsj16: the export thing is available for both method (flat-file & Gconf)... lol I've just export one of each to make sure lol [06:41] Gnea: ill be back in a few [06:42] kbp: heh, smart move [06:42] glitsj16: still says im not part of the pulse-rt group [06:42] systm: so add yourself and try again [06:42] glitsj16: it says im still part of the group [06:42] Does anyone know any good plugins for XChat? especially those that make dealing with dcc easier? [06:43] systm: which is it ? only houdini could be in 2 groups at the same time [06:43] alguien me puede ayudar con el wine?? [06:43] is there like a script i can use to hide the icons on my desktop [06:44] how to compile ppp statically? what cflags to pass? [06:44] glitsj16: what do you mean, i'm in pulse-rt [06:45] systm: well your former line confused me, my bad [06:45] glitsj16: its ok. [06:45] glitsj16: do i have to use Pulse? [06:45] systm: no [06:46] mjm52: you still around? [06:46] what CFLAGS can compile source statically? [06:46] glitsj16: well either way, something is muted because my SoftKeys Mute button is still the same color as being muted [06:46] abama: er, -static does it, iirc [06:47] systm: you can change your sound prefs to use alsa for instance ... but if things are muted, no sound settings will deliver audio, checked your mixer settings yet ? [06:47] well i'm gonna go ahead and install ubuntu [06:47] wish me luck [06:47] yes, nothing is muted [06:47] mjm52: you where wondering what my menu.lst file was saying it says rootnoverify (hd0,0);savedefault;makeactive;chainloader +1; <--- the ; represents an enter [06:48] systm: are you on jaunty ? there are some issues i believe using audio on certain cards [06:48] glitsj16: yes.. :( [06:48] Gnea: CFLAGS=-static? [06:48] systm: let me get a link, one moment pls [06:48] ok. [06:49] Gnea: -static or --static? [06:49] Is it possible to configure the columns in 'top'? I would like to increase the spacing between PID %MEM, etc. [06:50] systm: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=4928900 has a very detailed set of instructions to configure pulseaudio, im tracking down somethin else as well [06:52] Has anyone's wireless interfaces stopped working after a recent (48h) package update and reboot? [06:52] systm: http://www.ubuntugeek.com/sound-solutions-for-ubuntu-904-jaunty-users.html ... i nrealize it's a read, but it might be a good idea to get a general view on how pulseaudio works, it's explained in the forums link better than i ever could, perhaps take that as a first stepping stone [06:53] glitsj16: if its becoming a standard i'll look at it. [06:53] glitsj16: Is there a way so that everything can be automated? [06:53] I have a strange problem where left alt and right alt are activating by themselves without me pressing any keys ubuntu 9.04 [06:53] systm: yes it sure looks that way [06:53] Привет всем! [06:54] glitsj16: Like, I can enter a subject manually with -s, but what about a body? I seem to ened to type the body in manually [06:54] !ru [06:54] Пожалуйста посетите #ubuntu-ru для получения помощи на русском языке / Pozhalujsta posetite #ubuntu-ru dlya polucheniya pomoshi na russkom yazyke [06:54] ScottG: how do you mean exactly ? [06:54] glitsj16: for linux as a whole or just *buntus [06:54] I'm trying to configure my graphics settings and dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg just asks me a ton of crap about my keyboard and closes [06:54] systm: pulseaudio is used all over the place these days [06:55] glitsj16: does it play nice with MPD/sonata/mpc? [06:55] Anybody know how to set hardware acceleration for frame buffer vesafb driver using fbset? To list 1233 files in console takes 27s, while in X it's a zippy 0.77s. [06:55] systm: very much so yes [06:55] glitsj16: excellent [06:55] Hi, I just upgraded to 9.04 from 8.04. But now I can't set my resolution any larger than 1024x786. When I was using 8.04 i used a program called "displayconfig-gtk" that allowed me to force 1400x1200 resolution, but apparently that program is no longer available. Does anyone know any other program or wya to force a larger resolution? [06:56] ScottG: hang on please, i'm slow :) [06:56] Gena: well at lest it hasent locked up yet [06:56] just not mounting [06:57] Maksueru: Hardware info? [06:57] hi, can we add a search text box in our gnome taskbar like we can do with google on windows? [06:58] glitsj16: i need to reboot brb [06:58] Gnea: should it auto mount? [06:58] systm: okay, hope you get some improvements [06:59] how do u open a .run file? [06:59] c0mp13371331337: ATI Radeon 9200, Intell P4 2.2ghz, 1gb ram. [07:00] this is not the appropriate channel or nobody knows? [07:00] Patrique: right click then add panel [07:00] hey guys [07:00] ubuntu does not recognize my raid set up [07:01] help please! [07:01] Brando753: I think in a terminal window if it's not already set to excutable chmod +x filename.run then ./filename.run [07:01] Patrique: *add to panel [07:01] glitsj16: np [07:01] Maksueru: Radeon 9200, wow, used to have that EXACT card. I remember it always giving me trouble, no matter what I was doing. What driver are you using for it? If memory serves me correctly, the 9200 was the cutoff model for fglrx support. All models above it had support in fglrx, but the 9200 and below were out of luck. [07:01] glitsj16: Maybe you could show me an example of one of those commands? [07:02] This is kind of a stupid question, but I keep getting a "permission denied" error with transmission-daemon; can anybody give me some unix permission tips to fix this? [07:02] ScottG: yes i was looking into that, i also use sendemail, has a very easy interface [07:02] c0mp13371331337: Ya, it kinda sucks that i cant use fglrx, I'm using the Versa drivers right now. Ive always been able to force it to other resolutions with other programs, but now that this one is gone Im not sure how to do it anymore. [07:02] i m on intrepid using emacs 22.2.1. I notice a very strange issue, if I click on the left hand corner window menu ( the one thathas minimiz/maximize/move ) it takes a long time before this works for emacs [07:02] this extra time is taken only for emacs windows not for other applications [07:03] sacarlson: thanks works perfectly [07:03] hi [07:03] Maksueru: Granted, it's been a year or two since I've used ATI anything, but if memory serves me correctly, I had better luck using the open ATI drivers. Have you given that a shot yet? [07:03] i got this error tring to install a tar.gz contents "**Error**: You must have `libtool' installed. [07:03] You can get it from: ftp://ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu/ [07:03] " but in that page what to download ?? i mean, in this page : which one to download ftp://ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu/libtool/ ........ [07:04] c0mp13371331337: No, not yet. [07:04] glitsj16: hm ok, sendmail [07:04] hi [07:05] hi to everybody [07:05] ScottG: sendemail, not sendmail [07:05] Maksueru: Give it a shot, it'd definitely be better to have somewhat native drivers rather than forcing a general VESA driver. [07:05] kbp: yeah i know this, but what i would like is an input box to search on the net [07:05] KingKimi: apt-get install libtool [07:05] KingKimi: that's a bad way to get libtool [07:05] glitsj16: uuh, whats with the e? [07:05] doleyb, but the terminal said that... [07:05] sacarlson, ok [07:06] KingKimi: yeah it did, but install the autoconf and autotools-dev packages instead [07:06] oh email [07:06] doleyb, from sudo apt-get install autoconf ? [07:06] ScottG: it is the package name, i didn't choose it, i guess the author wanted to make sure it didn't collide with sendmail [07:07] how to compile user-lever ppp source code statically? [07:07] KingKimi: sure like that, or libtool, or whatever it takes [07:07] Hi, i've decided to make the switch from Windows to Ubuntu and i was just wondering if there's a way to run windows apps [07:07] more on a gaming level than anything else [07:07] glitsj16: didnt seem to fix anything. [07:08] Myztikal_: there is wine. It is used to run WOW and stuff. [07:08] i use cairo dock in jaunty, has anyone been able to actually stop the gnome-panel from starting? i dont want it anymore and cant get rid of it [07:08] How reliable is wine? [07:09] and i'm specifically trying to run Ragnarok (really old) and TF2/CS [07:09] ScottG: sendEmail -f glitsj16@gmail.com -t scottg@gmail.com -u "testing ubuntu" -m "Testing ubuntu's ability to use cdmline mail" -s smtp.gmail.com:587 -xu -xp -q [07:09] is one way to use it ... it also takes a -o switch: your mail body in a file if you prefer it that way (instead of the -m routine) [07:09] Myztikal_: old stuff would tend to be better. If you've noticed Windows Vista, many new games fail to run right even on genuine Microsoft(tm) Windows(r). [07:09] Myztikal Have a look in WineHQ appdb, see if it's supported === [_FireSoul_] is now known as shr [07:10] ok thanks. [07:10] systm: too bad, i take it you made those changes mentioned on the forums page ? [07:10] doleyb: "many new games fail to run right even on genuine Microsoft(tm) Windows(r)", what a load of crap jeez [07:10] also, if i have the .exe files from Windows am i allowed to run it on Ubuntu [07:10] glitsj16: pretty sure. [07:10] glitsj16: its showing Audio levels changing but something is muted [07:11] is there a way to modify the "notify messages" features of ubuntu 9.04? [07:11] systm: sounds like it doesn't find your output device [07:11] crashatau: It isn't hard to find complaints from many windows users that X or Y recent game functions poorly. [07:12] glitsj16: maybe, its it possible to specify what Audio Card when using alsamixer [07:12] babio: Notifications aren't configurable, no. === shr is now known as shrd [07:12] systm: i believe you can yes, let me check my setuo here [07:12] *setup [07:12] ok i would like to modify color or display time....;( [07:13] glitsj16: 1/2 Success [07:13] hello [07:13] glitsj16: audio thru Headphones. [07:13] glitsj16: Awesome thanks so much! [07:13] systm: okay, on the right track [07:14] ScottG: welcome, it sure beats setting up a professional complex mail system [07:14] something to do with Front in alsa i believe [07:14] c0mp13371331337: I can't figure out how to install the ATI/Radeon drivers. All the wiki's are old and just refer to eding xorg.config. === baskingshark is now known as paul68 [07:14] systm: in your /etc/pulse/default.pa, have you set any specific alsa sink ? [07:15] anyone know how to disable the top gnome panel in Jaunty? [07:15] glitsj16: im half deaf now because of PC beep >:( [07:15] what program can i use to burn an audio_ts and video_ts directory? its a dvd [07:15] systm: lol, we can kill that irritating beep, want to do that first ? [07:16] glitsj16: i just muted it. [07:16] systm: sudo rmmod pcspkr [07:16] Patrique: http://library.gnome.org/users/user-guide/stable/launchers.html.en [07:16] glitsj16: How did you team with the STARTTLS? [07:16] Maksueru: I *believe* they're already installed, you just need to point to them with your xorg.conf. As I mentioned, it has been a while since I configured an ATI card, but that's what I had to do. [07:16] glitsj16: what do you mean default alsa sink? === shrd is now known as psr [07:17] got my discs today from https://shipit.ubuntu.com/ that was quick, only took like 2 weeks? [07:17] systm: pulseaudio can load a default alsa output device, i think that you haven't set one and pulse just ignores to look for one, but that's a guess === psr is now known as psh === psh is now known as psr [07:17] glitsj16: good theory, but how would it know about Headphones? === psr is now known as pshr [07:18] i was [07:18] shipitkthx: I didn't try it but looks like you can go mouse over an unused part and right click delete panel.  looks like you can autohide it too [07:18] glitsj16: I am surprised that command works for you. Google states on their smtp/pop site you need to set STARTTLS [07:18] glitsj16: how would i set that and what line? [07:18] u cant delete panel on the top panel [07:19] sacarlson: its greyed out [07:19] my disj wont eject after [07:19] anyone here using a HP DV series laptop? [07:19] systm: pulseudio is hotpluggable, defaults are set to not load any device, it picks up your headphones, hang on, i'll paste something, for the /etc/pulse/default.pa file [07:19] shipitkthx: it's not on mine maybe it's an admin thing? [07:20] sacarlson: in jaunty? [07:20] ScottG: correct, you can set that somewhere yes, done this over a year ago, i'll have to tracj it down, give us a minute ok [07:20] shipitkthx: yes I think so 8.04 [07:20] hi, if i wanted to make the login based on domain, do i have to change workgroup to domain in ldap.conf ??? [07:20] sacarlson: 9.04 [07:21] glitsj16: np, I think i might be working on the problem now, there is a -o tls=yes [07:21] I m copying directories from another user how do I make sure the copied files have me as the owner? [07:21] glitsj16: That seems like it is it, but i need to install some libs first [07:21] how to disable -shared option when running make? [07:21] ScottG: also an option yes [07:21] CodeWar: use rsync [07:21] hi I have a problem with my bcm driver after the upgrade to kernel version 2.6.28.12 generic in 9.04 its not working and I don't get it to see in the restricted driver part where it was before how to resolve this problem? [07:21] my disk wont eject after using k3d [07:21] hey guys what does aircrack-ng do [07:22] shipitkthx: sorry I'm on Hardy [07:22] brasero estimates i'm burning at 360 KiB/s, while i can watch the counter incrementing by at least 2MiB/sec. Kind of an annoying, microsoft-esque useless estimate. [07:23] does anyone know how to decrease the delay of drag and drop (without changing wm - im on gnome)? it takes like 1 sec to pop up the minimized window when I drag sumthing into it. It's too long (i need it appear instantly lol) [07:23] brasero sucks, i still get failed burns even though it's sucessful, been like that the last 4 ubuntu's =) [07:23] (remember: without changing wm) [07:24] kindofabuzz: oh great, i only have one disc [07:24] kindofabuzz: or do you mean brasero says it's bad when it's good? [07:24] glitsj16: HA! I got it. That error message was perfect. Lead me exactly to the libraries I needed to apt-get [07:24] jschall, it will still be sucessful, yeah but it always says it fails for me [07:25] kindofabuzz: hmm [07:25] ScottG: glad you found it, my notes are terrible lol; could have taken me another week to track it down [07:25] hi I have a problem with my bcm43xx driver after the upgrade to kernel version 2.6.28.12 generic in 9.04 its not working and I don't get it to see in the restricted driver part where it was before how to resolve this problem? [07:25] shipitkthx: I just checked my laptop it runs 9.04 and it's not grayed out eather [07:25] jschall, not saying it will do that for you, just i've had that problem for years, so i finally switched to gnome-baker [07:25] glitsj16: lol thats ok. You were right about this program having a good and easy interface. Now I wonder if it can read from a config file... [07:26] glitsj16: I don't like putting my password into commands at all [07:26] glitsj16: how should I add the Front to default.pa? [07:26] sacarlson thats weird because im reading tons of problems of people not being able to delete it because they got rid of the "current session" option in 9.04 [07:27] What packages do i need to install so i have man pages for strstr, fprintf, etc. [07:27] ScottG: it can pick it up yes, from /etc/ssmtp/ssmtp.conf [07:27] how do i minimize any running to the system tray ???? like i want to minimize the transmision whenever i click close button to systemtray like that of utorrent in xp.... any from synpantic ? [07:27] what should be passed to CFLAGS in order to specify the flags "--enable-static, --extra-libs=-static, --extra-cflags=--static", finally statically compile the pppd program? [07:27] hey huys i was using xp -kmplayer so i ve chanced my os. now i m looking for good mediaplayer that i can use two subtitle at the same time. are there any aplication that support ubuntu? [07:27] iter, thanks rsync is cool [07:28] statically compile and link pppd [07:28] KingKimi, you can download alldock, try using add/remove programs and look for "dock" [07:29] I get this error message :The following packages have unmet dependencies:linux-restricted-modules-generic: Depends: linux-restricted-modules-2.6.28-12-generic but it is not installable E: Broken packages how to solve this [07:29] KingKimi, i meant "AllTray" [07:29] trece8, ok [07:29] glitsj16: I don't see a way to designate a config file? It just uses /etc/ssmtp/ssmtp.conf by default and only that? [07:30] paul68, restart and start with "(recovery mode)" kernel [07:30] systm: look for a line in your /etc/pulse/default.pa load-module module-alsa-sink, i have it uncommented and added a " device=hw:0,0" to it, was all it took to get pulseaudio working for me, working stable (adjust the hw:0,0 for your ecact setup offcourse) [07:30] then, put "try fixing broken packages" [07:30] trece8, thnx .. i got it [07:30] trece8: in the terminal? [07:30] KingKimi, does it work? I downloaded it today [07:30] hi after updrading from 8.10 to 9.04 i always have to /etc/init.d/networking restart to get online [07:30] trece8, yes.. it works [07:30] paul68, do what i said [07:30] trece8, thnx [07:30] trece8: ok brb [07:31] ScottG: correct, ssmtp was so bright to set itself as the systems MTA so it all combines [07:31] really... it's simpler than doing in terminal, i think [07:31] i don't know what you should run in terminal, like sudo dpkg --configure -a or something like that [07:31] what is the difference between crossover and wine ?? [07:31] just reboot, go to "(recovery mode)" and use "Try to fix broken packages" (it says something about dpkg) [07:32] KingKimi, crossover is wine in a pretty GUI that cost $ =) [07:32] KingKimi, the basic one is that i don't have a clue about what "crossover" is :P [07:32] one question of mine... how do i change what programs autostart? [07:32] ScottG: could you refresh my memory in connection to the extra libs you needed to nstall please, i'm noting this down this time [07:33] crossover is commercial and wine is not [07:33] glitsj16: hm, well I tried just leaving out the user and pass but it didn't work [07:33] i want to get the nm-applet out of my sight [07:33] hey guys, i just tried to install ubuntu and almost lost my raid array [07:33] can anyone help [07:33] glitsj16: However, i can put the username and pass into files and cat them on the go as arguments [07:33] hi all [07:33] glitsj16: yea sure let me just go get the names [07:33] trece8, system > preferances > startup apps === baskingshark is now known as paul68 [07:34] mmm... i'm in xubuntu [07:34] trece8: same problem [07:34] glitsj16: "sudo apt-get install libnet-ssleay-perl" AND "sudo apt-get install libio-socket-ssl-perl" [07:34] ScottG: no rush, as you notice, i am slow, maybe need some sleep here in a moment, thanks in advance [07:34] trece8, oh, it's in the menus somewhere i assume [07:34] kindofabuzz, i assumed too, i just can't find it [07:34] glitsj16: lol its np you helped me out a bunch [07:34] ScottG: okay great, noted that down, thanks for that [07:34] glitsj16: that didnt work [07:34] paul68, really? What message did it say after you run dpkg? [07:35] glitsj16: So do I need to specify an option so that it will use the ssmtp.conf so I dont need to enter my user and pass? [07:36] ScottG: to be honest i can't remember how i set it all up, been almost 2 years [07:36] kindofabuzz, but i downloaded crossoverchrome from their site .without filling forms for money ? [07:36] systm: hmm, but it didn't break your headphine output i hope [07:36]  hi, if i wanted to make the login based on domain, do i have to change workgroup to domain in ldap.conf ??? [07:36] kindofabuzz, i cant understand [07:36] :( [07:37] KingKimi, you got the trial, look at the .deb, i bet it says trial [07:37] glitsj16: I find it odd that the system thinks it is ok for it to allow you to write your password in plain text like that to the ssmtp.conf where anyone can read it [07:37] glitsj16: yes [07:37] trece8: don't see it but I get when I try to install the restricted modules unmet dependencies broken packages but will reboot again and see if there was an error [07:37] ikonia: around ?? [07:38] hello all [07:38] bye guys [07:38] ScottG: /etc/ is not available to jus anyone ( i hope), but granted, i should have stated from the beginning that this is on a one user system [07:38] guys i'mt rying to install ubuntu on an existing raid array [07:38] but ubuntu didn't recognize the raid array during installation [07:39] glitsj16: Well so is mine, i still don't like having my text file in plain sight. I am pretty sure that anyone can look at the contents of /etc [07:39] Hi. I'm trying to upgrade from 8.04 to 8.10 (and then 9.04). I get this error: "It was not possible to authenticate some packages. This may be a transient network problem. You may want to try again later. See below for a list of unauthenticated packages. libnm-glib-vpn0 [07:39] network-manager [07:39] Update manager is giving me quite a bit of grief, in that I keep getting a Partial Upgrade dialog box, to which I choose to install the partial upgrade, but then it fetches a package and closes, without installing anything and without warning, like it's crashing... [07:39] network-manager-gnome [07:39] any ideas? [07:39] Hi, is there an "MSN" equivalent on Ubuntu. Preferably a clear and clean GUI because Pidgin doesn't satisfy me :/ [07:39] ". How can I ignore this problem? Thank you [07:39] Myztikal_, Amsn [07:39] Myztikal_: Pidgin [07:39] i think it's called [07:39] thanks [07:40] Myztikal_→ Emesene is a nice MSN client [07:40] Myztikal_, cleaner than pidgin? [07:40] glitsj16: i'll try this later :| [07:40] anyone know any guides to help my transition from windows to ubuntu? [07:40] Myztikal_, search in google, it's way better than any possible guide [07:40] thanks all. === Kwitschibo_ is now known as Kwitschibo [07:40] ok [07:41] anyway, Myztikal_ , you can remove the format bars from pidgin, the format of the sender, the post time and all that [07:41] It seems like Ubuntu should have some sort of gentle introduction when you first install it. :-p [07:41] it is reaaaallly clean [07:41] ScottG: now i remember, i chmod'ed 0600 the ssmtp.conf [07:41] keith, ... gentle like "I assume you were pirating software, so now..."? [07:42] Anybody knows how I can ignore the auth error above? Thanks [07:42] Hi just upgraded from 8.10 -> 9 but now everytime I restart the machine it starts doing updating packages but I guess it fails because next time it starts again [07:42] trece8: lol, something like that. [07:42] Myztikal_, here a good Ubuntu guide, http://www.ubuntupocketguide.com/index_main.html [07:42] gasull: uninstall network-manager maybe [07:42] http://resnet.missouristate.edu/images/wireless/wireless-ubuntu-04.png what that blue signal means that they are others connectected to my network any clue? [07:43] ActionParsnip: it isn't installed [07:43] ActionParsnip: Actually I'm trying installing those packages before upgrading [07:43] ActionParsnip: right now [07:43] hey guys when I install ubuntu and changed a partition type [07:43] is it going to keep it in GUID mode ? [07:44] ubuntistas means they are encrypted networks, WEP or WPA etc [07:44] GUID? [07:44] OSX partition scheme? [07:44] sorry, I have no idea about that [07:44] have you googled it? [07:44] trying to [07:44] gasull: just uninstall whatever it doesnt like first [07:45] ESphynx→ the easiest way is to use Boot Camp to create a "windows partition" and install onto that [07:45] I am stuck in screen resolution 800 x 600. what to do? [07:45] gasull: you can also speed up the wole thing with: sudo apt-get --purge autoremove; sudo apt-get install deborphan; sudo apt-get --purge remove `deborphan` [07:45] ubuntu 9.04 [07:45] magnetron that's what I did [07:45] Kartagis: install video drivers [07:45] esphynx... blame google :P ... it brings all results about "GUIDE" instead of "GUID".... i miss the old altavista.com [07:45] I already had a Windows partition, but i had to change it to XFS... [07:45] ActionParsnip: thanks [07:45] now I'm worried it will change my GUID to MBR [07:45] Kartagis, install restrictive drivers [07:46] trece8: try www.ask.com www.msn.com [07:46] Actually the problem was fixed after installing the packages [07:46] trece8: other search engines do exist [07:46] ESphynx→ Boot Camp makes sure it's both MBR and GPT compatible [07:46] ActionParsnip: Actually the problem was fixed after installing the packages [07:46] ActionParsnip, package name? [07:46] ActionParsnip, but ones that search "GUID" and not "GUIDE"? [07:46] magnetron ... ah , you realy meant bootcamp [07:46] Kartagis: well what video card do you have first, would be useful dont you think? [07:46] ActionParsnip: but I didn't start the upgrade so I'll do what you say too [07:46] So I should do that? [07:46] ActionParsnip, one sec [07:46] gasull: if its gonna roll then go for it [07:47] Kartagis: lspci | grep -i vga [07:47] i'm trying to install ubuntu on existing raid 0 array [07:47] can anyone help me [07:47] ESphynx→ yeah that's why i said boot camp [07:47] magnetron : thanks :P [07:47] what is difference between win4lin and wine ?? is it a good thing to buy win4lin ? [07:47] trece8: I got error messages that it couldn't remove stuff and sugested apt-get autoremove which I did however still no way to install the restricted drivers module [07:48] ActionParsnip, 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: VIA Technologies, Inc. KM400/KN400/P4M800 [S3 UniChrome] (rev 01) [07:48] ActionParsnip, try it for yourself... if you look for "GUID" it comes up with things for "guide"... no actual search engine can undestand that you are not making a typo [07:48] Kartagis, download envyng [07:48] magnetron : although this is a PC... you still mean bootcamp? :P [07:48] from Add/remove software, and install the latest ATI driver [07:48] trece8, what envyng? [07:48] trece8: since the upgrade to kernel version 8-12 my bcm43 driver isn't working [07:48] trece8: what of GUIDs? do you want an explanation of them, do you want to use them in fstab? [07:48] trece8, with quotes , i think i get the results :D [07:48] Kartagis, download it! [07:49] !envy | Kartagis [07:49] Kartagis: EnvyNG is a program to install newer version of nVidia drivers, which can be found in !Universe as "envyng-gtk" or "envyng-qt". It is NOT a supported method to install them; please only use it at your own risks if standard methods fail - See !nVidia [07:49] trece8: see above [07:49] ActionParsnip, I already know [07:49] trece8: dont advise people use garbage unsupported solutions [07:49] hi [07:49] glitsj16: ah ok, let me look that up [07:49] ActionParsnip, I don't have a nvidia card [07:49] ESphynx→ you specifcally mentioned Mac OS. [07:49] ActionParsnip, garbage? :S [07:49] trece8: so what do you want to know of GUIDs? If you simply search for GUID its gonna give you nothing [07:49] Kartagis, you have a ATI card, envyng works with ATI too [07:49] Kartagis: you dont need one [07:50] i searched "GUID ubuntu" [07:50] ESphynx→ as i said, boot camp's the easiest way. there are several others of course. [07:50] ScottG: hope you can get it all worked out, i have to get to the office, take care [07:50] <_Brun0_> Is there a way to have ubuntu application/system menu to be launched from Gnogme-do Docky? [07:50] it could simply say "no results", but instead of it, gives lots of results .... where it has GUID.. nowhere..... [07:50] glitsj16: yea actually everything seems to work awesome now. Thanks again [07:50] Is there a feature in ubuntu that manages the processing power like vista? [07:50] trece8: thats a rubbish search criteria [07:50] ?? [07:50] trece8: and its obvios why it assumed you thought guide [07:50] ActionParsnip: can you help me out with a bcm driver problem since the kernel upgrade from 2.6.28-11 to 2.6.28.12 [07:50] bye all, enjoy the buntu's [07:51] it shouldn't assume a thing [07:51] trece8: what EXACTLY do you want to know about GUIDs? [07:51] how do you look for webpages with ubuntu and GUID [07:51] and just that [07:51] trece8, ActionParsnip: that started happening randomly after i upgraded to 8.10. now it's always like that. do I still need it? [07:51] ActionParsnip, I don't have a problem with that [07:51] trece8, I don't have an ATI [07:51] I hate the way you can't search things that seem like typos [07:51] trece8: its assuming you mean Ubuntu Guide as there are lots of guides for ubuntu, if you search for something better then you will get better results [07:52] Kartagis, ActionParsnip, 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: VIA Technologies, Inc. KM400/KN400/P4M800 [S3 UniChrome] (rev 01) [07:52] oh sorry... [07:52] ActionParsnip, there's no excuse, if i want to search typos I should be able to do so [07:52] sometimes it's very useful [07:53] after apt-get remove wine [07:53] trece8: like search for guid fstab linux and try that in www.yahoo.com [07:53] I'm having ati issues [07:53] how do i remove all the config files??? i want a clean install of wine [07:53] trece8: yahoo has an option to actually search what you actually typed [07:53] trece8: try other search engines than google [07:53] I just wanted to let anyone know that is having nothing but lockups and bad luck with the nvidia.com drivers, the 185.53 pre-release drivers are wonderful for me so far.Might help some of you so i figured id share. [07:53] for example, how could you get the results of pages that say "gren tre" instead of "green tree"? [07:53] trece8: some actually have better functionality but everyone is google brainwashed [07:53] I'm having ati issues [07:53] ActionParsnip: can you help me out with a bcm43xx driver problem since the kernel upgrade from 2.6.28-11 to 2.6.28.12 [07:53] !broadcom > paul68 [07:53] paul68, please see my private message [07:53] trece8, so, what do I install now? still envyng? [07:53] i tried, ActionParsnip , but no good [07:54] how do i install opera on ubuntu 8.10 anyone?

[07:54] This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or [07:54] is only available from another source [07:54] EO_: Package opera has no installation candidate [07:54] syntax\: go to opera.com and download the DEB package for Ubuntu. [07:54] syntax\: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. [07:54] oh, opera is in the repositories? [07:54] can anyone assist with azureus?

[07:55] mozilla is not opening orkut anymore :( help me to solve this... i javascript enabled [07:55] tried that? what problem? JUST write the problem, bubba [07:55] thank you ActionParsnip. is it possible that that package was removed during upgrade? [07:55] Kartagis: this may help too: theres a sample xorg.conf or 2 in there too :) https://bugs.launchpad.net/openchrome/+bug/372469 [07:55] MarkJones: ok sir will do. thanks alot guys ^^ [07:55] sure [07:55] !opera > trece8 [07:55] trece8, please see my private message [07:56] hi, is anyone familiar with musicbrainz picard? [07:56] ActionParsnip, didn't need, I was right, it isn't in the repositories [07:56] how do I get envy? [07:56] I don't see it in the install list [07:56] bubba, go to add/remove programs, search envyng [07:56] bubba: its in the repos [07:56] download it [07:56] bubba: envy is not advised, what video card do you have? [07:56] ActionParsnip, xserver-xorg-video-openchrome is already the newest version. [07:56] check "all available apps" [07:57] ActionParsnip, .... c'mon.... ..... that's the only way i got my screen to work! [07:57] ati mobility x600 [07:57] Kartagis: then add the driver line to xorg.conf and it will load, read the examples in the post i gave [07:57] when i run command "top" i see at-spi-registry [07:57] ActionParsnip: not adviced? isnt it officially in universe now? [07:57] what is that? [07:57] trece8: maybe for you yes. Lets try do it the proper way first shall we [07:57] no, first the fast way [07:57] bubba: whats the output of: lspci | grep -i vga [07:57] then, the not-so-fast, and such [07:57] fast/easy [07:58] trece8: no, because every time you upgrade the kernel you have to revert to vesa, reboot to new kerenel and then rerun, its not graceful or practical [07:58] when i run command "top" i see at-spi-registry [07:59] ActionParsnip, do I just add the line Driver openchrome? [07:59] ActionParsnip, not really [07:59] what is "at-spi-registry" ? [07:59] admin_masu3701, googled it? [07:59] Kartagis: from what that says, yes [07:59] Man now that the NVIDIA drivers are getting fixed with the 185.53 that are up and coming, 9.04 seems like a realy great release. [07:59] What is a good Bit Torrent like program that will work with all OS's? [07:59] is it nautilus or ubuntu that makes it so easy to connect to networks and shares like samba, etc....?

[08:00] baz, it is nautilus, if you say about the "Connect to server..." thingyu [08:00] BilokShem: Your guess is as good as anyones if there are any at all that are crossplatform.I have no idea.But none are hard to use at all so Im not sure why that would matter to ya.But to each his own. [08:00] BilokShem: see above [08:00] trece8, yeah that and being able to type "smb://server/share" [08:00] trece8: wrong target, sheesh [08:00] @Bilokshem use FireTorrent inside firefix, heard it's pretty good [08:00] Need to update drivers for ati mobililty x600 [08:01] Azureus/Vuze is also pretty good [08:01] Thanks [08:01] baz, I don't use samba, so... never knew about that [08:01] Does Vuze risk Viruses? [08:01] the connect to server is from nautilus [08:01] and Spyware and adaware? [08:01] BilokShem: virus risks always there [08:01] how do i compile a .tar.gz file [08:01] bax: if the samba share will always be available you can use smbmount in fstab [08:01] but not in linux really [08:01] Brando753: [08:01] Brando753, you have to extract it [08:01] is torrent safer than using something like Gnutella? [08:01] Need to update drivers for ati mobililty x600 [08:01] so i installed Crunchbag (ubuntu based distro) and it uses OpenBox... what should I be researching to be able to connect to an smb share? [08:01] type tar-xvzf [filename] [08:02] adaware is Windowz issue not linux. [08:02] Brando753: you dont compile a tar.gz you extract it with tar zxvf ,file> [08:02] Brando753, or just click with the right mouse button and extract [08:02] trece8, you dont use smb? I use between linux boxes... not recommended? [08:02] My teste satchel is heavy [08:02] lots easier [08:02] baz : that is a crunchbang issue really [08:02] ActionParsnip, you tend to use the CLI too much [08:02] baz : not ubuntu [08:02] Need to update drivers for ati mobililty x600 [08:02] baz, I'm not that big user... really... [08:02] *Note* Crunchbang != Ubuntu [08:03] what do i do next [08:03] Crunchbang is to Ubuntu as Xubuntu is to Ubuntu [08:03] I use ssh [08:03] bubba: http://www.uluga.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1134935 or [08:03] Brando753: look for a folder with the name of the archive [08:03] !ati > bubba [08:03] bubba, please see my private message [08:03] Anyway, baz... between linux? ... ssh, man [08:03] why samba? [08:03] Back again. In my absence I went through the steps of https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx/Feisty_No-Fluff#Step%202b:%20sp33008%20Driver%20Download/Extraction [08:03] baz: Is that an offical release of Canonical? [08:03] can anyone assist me: the apt-get package for vuze didn't want to work so I installed manually from file obtained from site. it installed and ran, but I can't find shortcut to restart it now that i've exited, any ideas? [08:03] no, baz, that is incorrect [08:03] baz : unofficial though [that's a lot of the problem right there] [08:03] And got... zilch. [08:03] not sure bout that [08:04] trece8, yeah using fuse right? I use that remotely all the time but it seems overkill on my local network [08:04] hey, is it normal that gnome doesn't know to restore open programs from a previous session into their proper virtual desktops, but instead packs them all into a single workspace? KDE has been doing this right for a long time now [08:04] baz, just ssh :S [08:04] Pandora: locate it using the locate command [08:04] what do i have to install in a fresh jaunty install to be able to configure desktop effects [08:04] how? [08:04] ssh me@othermachine [08:04] first do sudo updatedb in the terminal [08:04] MarkJones, GnosticAscension, good points its not official - but damn it runs so much faster than even xubuntu on my EEE901 [08:04] then locate [filename] [08:04] Pandora: try typing vuze in terminal and hitting enter [08:04] Pandora, download Catfish and search in it [08:05] my image wont burn ...help it says "The drive cannot be locked (Ongoing burning process)" [08:05] how do i search a file using terminal ? [08:05] trece8, but then how do u transfer files? [08:05] @ActionParsnip good point if path is set :P [08:05] KingKimi, man locate [08:05] Pandora: or use find, no need for locate of catfish: sudo find / -name vuze* [08:05] SandGorgon: Install jaunty , 3d display driver and CCSM(compizconfig settings manager) to adjust effects. [08:05] but.... you can search with Catfish [08:05] Maybe the HP dv8000 with Broadcom 4311 or 4319 with an AMD64 and U8.10 just doen't do wireless. Anyone else care to suggest? [08:05] SandGorgon→ nothing, but if you want more details in your config you can use the "simple-ccsm" package or ccsm [08:05] KingKimi: find /path -name nameofthefile [08:05] Catfish is a new layer [08:05] !ccsm | SandGorgon [08:05] SandGorgon: To enable advanced customization of desktop effects in Ubuntu: install 'compizconfig-settings-manager' or 'simple-ccsm'. If you install the latter, a new option will appear in your appearance properties - See also !compiz - Help in #compiz-fusion [08:05] layers = trouble [08:05] :P [08:05] chetnick: exactly..weird people needing an app isnt it [08:05] not really, GnosticAscension [08:06] trece8: joking man [08:06] my image wont burn ...help it says "The drive cannot be locked (Ongoing burning process)" [08:06] From the side of the people trying to do other things that computing .... not! [08:06] SandGorgon: Tons af tuts on gogole for it too. [08:06] trece8: not in this case obv [08:06] gnome doesn't seem to restore window geometry from a previous session properly, either [08:06] I love gnome [08:06] GnosticAscension, anyway... I know people that would say that seriously... [08:06] drbobb: that's the least of gnome's troubles believe me [08:06] MarkJones, gnomophiliac! [08:06] :P [08:06] is this what i should expect or is something broken for me? [08:06] hehe [08:07] markjones what uuuuubuntu do u have? [08:07] trece8, how come locate command is very fast in locating files ???? :O :O :O ?? [08:07] 9.04 i386 [08:07] KingKimi: its has a database of EVERY file, it just searches that [08:07] KingKimi, because he uses turbo engine, with biodiesel [08:07] KingKimi: Because it uses a cached list of files [08:07] Is it possible to show PC stats in /etc/motd for ssh users? [08:07] kubuntu? [08:07] i extracted, how do i compile? [08:07] GnosticAscension: actually I'm not finding it as bad as I feared, mostly it's the session management that seem buggy [08:07] kubuntu sucks really [08:07] Need to update drivers for ati mobililty x600 [08:07] KDE scares me. [08:07] Brando753, search for a README [08:07] i think the whole of KDE sucks [08:07] It might now find the file if you use locate, depending on when the database was updated last. [08:08] Brando753: if you are asking that, you shouldnt be compiling [08:08] hawk ActionParsnip thanx [08:08] KDE4 = infinite trouble [08:08] Brando753, what program are you trying to compile?

[08:09] any one know a open source OO DB ? [08:09] i had Amarok carshing on 8.04, is it working fine on 9.04? === Dykam_ is now known as Dykam [08:10] whats a OO db? [08:10] kde4 doesn't suck too bad either, except for the buggy abomination that is plasma [08:10] yeah that was supposed to be the innovation [08:10] what dependecis u need? [08:10] object oriented database [08:10] * GnosticAscension stifles laughter [08:10] open office you mean or what? [08:10] oh [08:10] OO DB? [08:10] google it [08:10] hm [08:10] GnosticAscension: i use LXDE [08:10] dunno much DB stuff [08:10] actually dolphin is a bit better than nautilus, and kate is a lot better than gedit [08:10] GnosticAscension: and i'm aware of dependancies etc :) [08:10] ActionParsnip: Lubuntu ? :P [08:11] GnosticAscension: essentially [08:11] i use ratpoison, i rule :P [08:11] drbobb: tried pcman? [08:11] ActionParsnip: I know, was making a point, not educating ya [08:11] GnosticAscension: i gotcha [08:12] I cant wait for like Jaunty to have like 2-300 updates/fixes so i can use Ubuntu Customization Kit to slipstream all of em together onto a DVD, that should be one realy nice dependable OS. [08:12] * ActionParsnip does the vm dance [08:12] ActionParsnip: no I haven't [08:12] GnosticAscension: ** full path to gtk-config. [08:12] configure: error: Cannot find GTK: Is gtk-config in path? [08:12] drbobb: slick and fast file manager [08:12] btw I have an old box, 700Mhz, 256 MB RAM, any suggestions what to put on it for fast performance? [08:12] located it in /home/shane but if i type vuze and hit enter in terminal, it tells me that it's not installed [08:12] GnosticAscension: puppy [08:12] [might have to use Crunchbang after all :P) [08:12] GnosticAscension: more RAM would be a good start [08:12] GnosticAscension: your call, check specs for different distros and try em all. [08:13] GnosticAscension, use ratpoison, too [08:13] why do I see a huge play button on flash web sites? [08:13] use claws for mail [08:13] drbobb: no it's a *really* old machine with SDRAM (gasp!) [08:13] Kartagis: you have a flash plugin installed? [08:13] Kartagis, because you are using swfdec [08:13] swfdec puts that button, nothing abnormal there [08:13] GnosticAscension: dumpster diving? ;) [08:13] #vuze [08:13] MarkJones, yes [08:14] Kartagis: adobe.com download the official plugin for flash its pretty good. [08:14] MarkJones, the one he has works... I have it [08:14] trece8, what do I need to use? [08:14] hows lxde [08:14] superboy: awesome [08:14] cool [08:14] the mouse ... to click the play button? :P [08:15] ActionParsnip, is it better than ratpoison? [08:15] superboy: i say try ALL DEs, if you dislike em, you can remove them [08:15] how to do check it out? [08:15] trece8: not tried that one [08:15] Kinda cool that adobe started supporting linux/Ubuntu.Hope more companies do too. [08:15] superboy: sudo apt-get install lxde [08:15] superboy: then logout, change session to LXDE, log in [08:15] good lookin out [08:15] btw i remember [08:15] trece8, no, what do I need to use instead of swfdec? [08:15] I had but breezy on the same box once [08:15] infinite issues using the old logitech ball mouse [08:15] XP is faster than Breezy - ubuntu's come a long way since then I hope :) [08:15] GnosticAscension: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. [08:15] it's a windows manager without windows, ActionParsnip [08:15] does anyone know how to get the icons back to the bottom bar in Kubuntu? they spring back when you try to move them, they are stuck on the top bar :( [08:15] GnosticAscension: its as fast as your config [08:15] away [08:16] (((((( ActionParsnip ))))))))) [08:16] trece8: what is? [08:16] GnosticAscension: faster for a week? [08:16] ActionParsnip, search ratpoison screenshots in google [08:16] 有中国人没？ － － [08:16] Im scared of KDE. I have no clue. [08:16] GnosticAscension: lets give it a month? what then? clean install? [08:16] Kartagis, you can use swfdec!!! [08:16] it works, you just have to click that big play button first!! [08:16] chetnick: no, Breezy was a pain to use [08:17] how do i run the terminal from alt+F2? [08:17] hehe [08:17] i have no mouse [08:17] superboy: terminal [08:17] alt+f2 then xterm [08:17] kindofabuzz: it is saying they fail [08:17] superboy: type terminal [08:17] you mean ctl+alt+f2? [08:17] chetnick: mouse pointer would move 3 seconds after the mouse was moved :D :D [08:17] trece8: not bad [08:17] superboy... in a console... type sudo apt-get install ratpoison [08:17] is there a compiz plugin like KDE has to show all present windows (http://www.kde.org/announcements/4.0/screenshots/kwin-presentwindows.jpg) [08:17] yes, ActionParsnip i have a desktop-less desktop pc ... so i try to only use my keyboard [08:17] MarkJones: no [08:18] anyone know what causes audacity to either record for about half a second then stop recording (the transport bar keeps rolling but nothing gets recorded) [08:18] jschall, ? i forgot what the problem was [08:18] trece8: he'sclearly a newer user, i'l let him have some gloss before letting him run wild with stuff like that [08:18] SandGorgon, yes.. [08:18] so.... very cool indeed... i don't like the titlebars at all [08:18] kindofabuzz: brasero [08:18] MarkJones: he means the run dialog, then type gnome-terminal [08:18] or the transport bar to just hover at 0 secs and kind of look like it's trying to go but never move (and not record anything) [08:18] or xterm [08:18] :P [08:18] hmm [08:18] SandGorgon, It's a part of the key bindings of the window selection plugins [08:18] no idea [08:18] using 64studio but had the smae problem with jaunty [08:18] kindofabuzz: why are things always added to ubuntu before they're even nearly ready? like pulseaudio, compiz, and brasero? [08:18] trece8: but its not hard to remove so no harm in installing it, its free after all [08:18] is it possible to get a sh file that makes "matrix" effect on my desktop ?? [08:19] jschall, compix and pulse work fine for me [08:19] umm... where should i look for it ? [08:19] hello? [08:19] kindofabuzz: they do now... [08:19] How would a shell script make a matrix? strange way of accomplishing it i think. [08:19] mcrandello, it can be lots of things, really... Have you tried starting JACK first? [08:19] lightpriest, umm... where should i look for it ? === ohol1ks is now known as chol [08:19] btw lotsa distro pages have awful english [http://www.moonos.co.cc/] [08:19] mcrandello, JACK = qjackctl [08:19] SandGorgon, use CCSM first... [08:19] KingKimi: if you use compiz you can use opengl screensavers as your wallpaper [08:19] jschall, if you want rock stability, go Debian [08:19] matrix screensaver might be good choice? [08:19] MarkJones, i mean.... "matrix" effect [08:20] lightpriest, yup got it [08:20] screensavers [08:20] SandGorgon, Scroll down to the bottom plugins under the "Window Managment" section [08:20] trece8: yep started jack, tried using both jack and the native alsa devices as in/out [08:20] !opengl > KingKimi [08:20] Sorry, I don't know anything about opengl [08:20] same thing [08:20] Jaunty has matrixView screensaver [08:20] I have a new VPS and this is my first host. I'd like to replace the existing debian install with Ubuntu server and create an encrypted home and swap. Having trouble googling for docs on how to replace from inside an existing server. Any tipe? [08:20] kindofabuzz: i want to rock edginess but without the stability issues. [08:20] tips? [08:20] hello? [08:20] ho [08:20] srta, ? [08:20] i mean hi :P [08:20] lightpriest, all right... group windows? [08:20] does Ubuntu come with gnome and kde? [08:20] SandGorgon, no [08:21] and if so, how do i switch it to kde (4)? [08:21] GoSox: one of them [08:21] SandGorgon, what window switcher are you using? [08:21] zenwryly: just update the /etc/apt/sources.list and carefully update packages [08:21] jschall, check out Sidux [08:21] SandGorgon, every one has its own implementation for it [08:21] ActionParsnip, a little more help plz [08:21] well, I like when I returned the greeting [08:21] GoSox: do you have ubuntu or Kubuntu? [08:21] each* [08:21] when i add a group, a user of the same name is automatically added if it doesn't exist ? [08:21] ubuntu [08:21] sorry for asking here btw but the audacity channel is a ghost town [08:21] :) [08:21] lightpriest, shift-switcher [08:21] ok [08:21] figured someone would have ran into the same thing maybe once or twice [08:21] GoSox: then you'll have to install KDE on it [08:22] Gabrys: yeah, I know how to do that, but my real question is about the repartitioning and swap conversion [08:22] SandGorgon, click on it to browse its settings, among the different key bindings you should see "Next window (All Workspaces)" [08:22] GnosticAscension: how would I go about doing that? [08:22] or should i just switch to kubuntu? [08:22] GoSox: search in your add-remove programs, or do an apt-cache search kde in your terminal [08:22] KingKimi: there is a matrix type opengl screensaver you can stickon it and use as the wallpaper [08:22] SandGorgon, bind it to some combination like "Super+Tab" [08:22] SandGorgon, and start using :P [08:22] zenwryly: VPS you said? I would better not repartition anything there. You can try if FUSE works there, and try FUSE encryption -- encfs [08:23] ActionParsnip, what is opengl screensaver for compiz ? [08:23] GoSox: if you install KDE you can have a choice of GNOME and KDE (ubuntu uses GNOME by default) [08:23] KingKimi: the screensavers are nothing to do with compiz [08:23] .me misses the old days when it was a few hours to make oss/f work and then everything else worked, natch [08:23] GoSox: so unless you have a kubuntu CD lying by, I'd recommend installing KDE [08:23] ok [08:23] KingKimi: http://tombuntu.com/index.php/2007/09/14/animated-wallpaper-with-compiz-fusion-on-ubuntu/ [08:23] working on it . . . [08:23] Gabrys: but that would leave swap unencrypted [08:24] sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop [08:24] I thought I'd found docs of how to do this before but I'm not finding them again, should have bookmarked :( [08:24] zenwryly: try having swap as a file on en encfs-encrypted director [08:24] y [08:24] GoSox: look at this [08:24] KingKimi: make sure you run: sudo apt-get install xscreensaver-gl-extra [08:24] GoSox: http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/kde [08:24] or what mcrandello said :) [08:24] GnosticAscension: i'm getting a message that KDE4 cannot be installed on my comptyer type (i386) ?? [08:24] weird. it seems i don't have adobe-flashplugin installed [08:24] Gabrys: hmm, that's an idea, seems like i might be slow [08:24] GoSox: If you want KDE as your default desktop and dont want/likne GNOME, Kubuntu might be what you want. [08:25] GnosticAscension: weird, did you select the correct package? [08:25] i just want to switch to KDE4 because many have told me it's better than GNOME [08:25] zenwryly: yes, not much slower than having swap encrypted in other ways [08:25] i don't really use linux at all, it just runs in VMware [08:25] GoSox: NO, KDE4 is horribly broken [08:25] hi [08:25] GnosticAscension: no it's not [08:25] yes. yes, it is. [08:25] it's mildly broken, at worst [08:25] zenwryly: also, I think, that sometimes under VPS you don't have a way to "enable" swap at your side [08:25] Im melting, melting...... [08:26] zenwryly: good luck anyways [08:26] ikonia: :) all the new stuff's broken [08:26] anyone know how to configure my ricoh webcam 1839 in 9.04? [08:26] once they get rid of the fraking cashew all will be well [08:26] GnosticAscension: "kde4" is not broken - don't miss-lead people [08:26] question... how do i stop nm-applet to show in the panel from autostart? [08:26] Gabrys: ah, good point, I'll inspect that further. Thanks! [08:26] * trece8 joins the "I don't like KDE" mob [08:26] trece8: Whats the nm applet? [08:26] ikonia: it is spelt mislead [08:26] ActionParsnip, thnx for that link [08:26] i find gnome to be very unappealing [08:26] the network manager applet, [08:27] notification thingy? [08:27] questions about glxgears [08:27] oh [08:27] I'm almost ready to swear them all off and go ratpoison [08:27] KingKimi: have fun, you may have to compile the thing you need [08:27] the thingy that says that you are connected [08:27] GnosticAscension: don't be a pain - you know what I'm saying [08:27] KingKimi: or find a ppa with it on [08:27] Just right click and remove like everything esle. [08:27] i know that i'm connected when the computer is on [08:27] ActionParsnip, using the commands in that link ? [08:27] no, MarkJones, it's in the notification area [08:27] ActionParsnip, sorry, what is ppa ? [08:27] :( [08:27] it doesn't even have a "REMOVE" button to press [08:27] KingKimi: the link to the app you need i think it for gutsy, so you may need to find one for your release [08:27] !ppa [08:27] With Launchpad's Personal Package Archives (PPA), you can build and publish binary Ubuntu packages for multiple architectures simply by uploading an Ubuntu source package to Launchpad.

Give me your honest opinion [08:28] ActionParsnip, :O .... i have ibex [08:28] MarkJones, there are no 3 little bars [08:28] KingKimi: I strongly advise you not to play with PPA's at this point in your experience [08:28] GnosticAscension: that's offtopic in here - and nothing to do with what I said to you [08:28] ikonia: I know it isn't *broken* broken, but for the avg user................

[08:30] GoSox: I think 4 for the current version [08:30] ActionParsnip, or he could just record it as it comes and check before installing [08:30] it's faster statistically talking [08:30] ask ikonia for more, i think he's more clear on the KDE issues [08:30] trece8: but if he doesnt have the sum, its useless [08:30] Crash1hd, no [08:30] @ikonia over to you [08:30] Need to check and see if I have hardware acceleration enabled [08:31] GnosticAscension: what ? [08:31] trece8: it wont confuse other machines on the network?

[09:56] no [09:56] !who | sim-value [09:56] sim-value: As you can see, this is a large channel. If you're speaking to someone in particular, please put their nickname in what you say (use !tab), or else messages get lost and it becomes confusing :) [09:56] RichiV: well you're in a mess as you've installed one from AMD - which can cause conflicts/problems [09:57] ikonia: i see no wonder when i boot up i get pixelated screenign [09:57] RichiV: read the forum link I sent you [09:57] ikonia: sure thing [09:57] ikonia: when there are broken dependencies how much time does ubuntu in general need to fix this? [09:58] paul68: depends what's broken [09:58] paul68: what's broken ? [09:58] does anyone know if can i change the permissions of a file in an ntfs drive?... i tried chmod but the changes does not reflect [09:58] ror: you still present? [09:58] yes [09:58] DaMaster: it has a bootable sector on the centre of the cd. boot.ini is a windows file, booting up from a cold boot does not use windows [09:58] ikonia: the restriced modules for 28.12 [09:58] ikonia: I think his issue was restricted modules in -proposed [09:58] keno: it's normally mounted with "fuse" which is user space, so technically yes, but acaully no [09:58] ror: did you get my remark over booting? [09:58] rww: he said he didn't have the proposed repo enabled, that was the first thing I asked [09:59] paul68: please pastebin your /etc/apt/sources.list [09:59] scrolling up now.. [09:59] ikonia: ok [09:59] I don't know about bcm specifically but I suspect booting back to 2.6.28-11 would be the quickest fix and least likely to go wrong [09:59] ikonia: ppl have told me to get an open source for this driver? [09:59] what do you suggest? [09:59] if the 2.6.28-12 drivers aren't available I can't see where one would get them from [09:59] RichiV: yes, READ the forum post I sent you === nico_ is now known as n1co === n1co is now known as n1c0 [10:00] I'm doing an automatic distro upgrade from 8.04 to 8.10 before going to 9.04... [10:00] If I'm past the "downloading files" step is it safe to disconnect from the internet? [10:00] noglorp: no [10:00] noglorp: keep it on for the upgrade if possible [10:01] question, how do you restart gnome/gdm in Jaunty (since ctrl+alt+backspace doesn't work anymore) [10:01] cuz my desktop stopped working, but the menu's & apps still work fine [10:01] ikonia: http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/m726799e9 [10:02] snek: ctrl+prntscrn+k (i believe) [10:02] ror: ok [10:02] paul68: you have the proposed repo's enabled ! [10:02] k if i leave it works :P [10:02] oh wait... my imac keyboard doesn't have a printscreen button lol [10:02] paul68: 51.deb http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ jaunty-proposed restricted main multiverse universe [10:02] snek: then you'll have to re-enable the old skool [10:02] !nozap [10:02] Sorry, I don't know anything about nozap [10:02] !dontzap [10:02] To re-enable the Ctrl+Alt+Backspace combination that restarts your X server, you can install the "dontzap" package and use the command « sudo dontzap --disable ». The combination Alt+SysRq+K can also be used to obtain a similar effect. [10:03] ikonia: thanks for the warning [10:03] will do [10:03] thx ActionParsnip [10:03] ikonia: ok what else can I do to fix the package? [10:03] paul68: you can't [10:04] paul68: your using unsupported packages that have not been tested and proably will break your system [10:04] paul68: not enabling the proposed repo WAS the right thing to do [10:04] ikonia, I'm guessing ubuntu still has problems with raid [10:04] i think i oughta just get rid of my raid setup [10:04] (though to be fair the -proposed packages are very rarely buggy!) [10:04] so i can try out ubuntu [10:04] painted82: not really - fakeraid is ajust a weak technology in general [10:05] snek: np [10:05] well windows doesn't seem to have a problem with it, ikonia [10:05] painted82: buy a raid card. makes it faster and easier to setup [10:05] ikonia: ok I understand however it was working correctly in 28.11 and running this on 3 machines all with the same bcm drivers installed without a problem [10:05] painted82: that's because windows have drivers written for it, but as a concept, it's bad [10:05] painted82: LOL [10:05] painted82: you're not using 2.6.8.11 - your now running unstable software [10:05] painted82: sorry - not you [10:06] paul68: you're not using 2.6.8.11 - your now running unstable software [10:07] ikonia: why is ubuntu sending me a kernel update then, because they are to my knowledge not available for everybody when its not stable or am I wrong [10:07] paul68: they are sending you an update beause YOU selected to have the PROPOSED updates repo enabled [10:07] Hi all, I'm asking if ubuntu server 9.04 is stable that I can install it on my server, or I have to keep 8.04 for a while ???? [10:07] ibralnet: yes it is [10:08] ibralnet: absolutely [10:08] hello [10:08] Hi, everybody: i just upgrade to 9.04. Now I meet a problem on mouse right-click to open application, it always no response. How to solve this problem? [10:08] ok, thanks to all [10:08] hi [10:08] hi [10:08] problem? [10:08] i need to know my system specification n performance [10:08] afancy: are you using compiz? [10:09] faria: install the hardinfo package, if you want benchmarks the phoronix test suite is a good way to go [10:09] faria: cat /proc/cpuinfo | grep name; cat /proc/cpuinfo | grep -i mhz; free -m; lspci | grep -i vga [10:09] ok i read the fourn i forget your name IAno [10:09] ikonia: can I remove the entries in my menu.lst and remove the kernel packages from my system? [10:09] Hi, everybody: i just upgrade to 9.04. Now I meet a problem on mouse right-click to open application, it always no response. How to solve this problem? [10:09] ikonia: read the forum had to fully uni it [10:10] afancy: are you running compiz? [10:10] or install saidar [10:10] ActionParsnip: no [10:10] ikonia: could you please send me the link again? i need to get the open source [10:10] afancy: have you looked in mouse optios? [10:10] faria : you could do sudo apt-get install saidar [im not sure whether it's there in the 9.04 repos tho] [10:10] !info saidar [10:10] saidar (source: libstatgrab): curses-based program which displays live system statistics.

[10:11] ? [10:11] I think there is even a bot here that knows :) [10:11] ActionParsnip: no, it doesnot work [10:12] my bchunk just cover bin/cue to .cdr files but no .iso file... is there any idea for it? [10:12] ActionParsnip: so now when i open gedit, i have to type command "gedit" in console [10:12] can anyone send me a link to learn about UBUNTU [10:12] @ActionParsnip @afancy : I think this is gonna turn into a xorg.conf editing session [10:12] harykumar20: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ubuntu [10:13] lesshaste: gpg --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv 247D1CFF; gpg --export --armor 247D1CFF | sudo apt-key add - [10:13] lesshaste: i have a sweet script for it myself ;) [10:13] ActionParsnip: actually, now by clicking the mouse cannot open any application, no matter right-click or left-click [10:13] thanks! [10:13] ActionParsnip: :) [10:13] @harykumar20 google for ubuntu introduction, or go to http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/ [10:13] ActionParsnip: Me too. alias ppakey=^that^ ftw :) [10:13] How much approximalety is "installed" ubuntu size/ [10:13] rww: totally [10:14] Thankx [10:14] rww: lesshaste: http://pastebin.com/f76428d70 [10:14] DaMaster: A very good question... [10:14] I want to install it in USB 1GB, because my HDD does not work, and [10:14] so on [10:14] DaMaster: i'd say a bit less than 3Gb (ish) [10:14] :O [10:14] DaMaster: go into places/computer and see filesystem [10:14] paul68: your system will be tained with other proposed updates, [10:15] DaMaster: 1 gb i think [10:15] Wired network: device is unmanaged. What can I do to solve that? [10:15] DaMaster: you can skim it down a LOT. Theres a tonne of guff in the standard install you will never use [10:15] (Internet works) [10:15] DaMaster: you can make a live cd effectively in 1GB [10:15] can i skip many programs on installation? [10:15] hi all, i installed jaunty (only; no os x at all on the drive) on a macbook and it takes quite some time, until the grub bootloader is started. i guess, the machine is confused not to find an EFI partition. how can i fix that? [10:15] edoreld: if the internet works, don't sweat it [10:15] DaMaster: I think a full install will be larger but also will be very slow from a usb device [10:15] DaMaster: no, ubuntu doesnt have that feature [10:15] ActionParsnip: however, I need to setup a VPN connection, and that doesn't work either [10:16] I am working now from CD [10:16] ikonia: unless I deselect proposed correct? [10:16] it's not so bad, not so slow [10:16] paul68: no [10:16] DaMaster: unless you make a custom installation cd [10:16] edoreld: one thing at a time [10:16] paul68: that won't make the updates go [10:16] paul68: what is installed now - will be installed until you remove it [10:16] :( [10:16] ActionParsnip: ok, what first? [10:16] hm [10:16] ikonia: ok [10:16] DaMaster: then it's not clear that using a usb device will help in any case [10:16] ActionParsnip: I created a VPN connection and clicking on it does nothing [10:16] DaMaster: what were you hoping it would do for you? [10:16] DaMaster: are you limited by disk space? [10:17] Yes [10:17] hello, is there anyone can help me on bchunk? I would like to cover bin/cure image to .iso image, but bchunk just cover the image to .cdr files and cannot generate .iso file... [10:17] edoreld: considering the mouse is quite an important device, id fix that first [10:17] I am heavily limited space [10:17] and xfce install takes less space am i right guys? [10:17] DaMaster: can you not buy a HDD? [10:17] Hi guys I'm running Ubuntu on my webserver. I host multiple clients, each has their own subdomain, which is in turn mapped to a folder. I'd like to track the bandwidth usage of each client / subdomain / folder. How can I do this? [10:17] DaMaster: they are very cheap these days [10:17] DaMaster: then i'd suggest puppy or damnsmalllinux [10:17] ActionParsnip: the mouse? The mouse works.. [10:17] hey guys,girls [10:17] ActionParsnip: it clicks, it's the VPN thing that does nothing [10:17] Yeah, i will buy anoither HDD. But not today [10:17] :) [10:18] michaeldobrovits: s/girls/girl... if you are lucky [10:18] how can i know if udev created a node or alias to new hardware? [10:18] btw did people read the latest linuxhaters post about Drepper and glibc? [ http://linuxhaters.blogspot.com/2009/05/tribute.html ] [10:18] !vpn > edoreld [10:18] edoreld, please see my private message [10:18] g[r]eek: just for the web stuff or for the full traffic?

[10:18] cw=Z]QuL]W|L\PSLuP^O[ [10:18] beli: Just web [10:18] cw=Z]NdP|L.P~LUQ^L=UD [10:18] cw=Z]PD;* [10:18] tavernier: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. [10:18] ActionParsnip: does xfce take less space than gnome? [10:19] cd is 150kb X cd speed [10:19] tavernier: please stop pasting random noise to the channel [10:19] beli: well what other traffic is there besides web? I don't give FTP access to my clients. [10:19] usb is 30mb sec [10:19] cw=Z]PCNqP^ cw=Z]OGPENbPeNiQX@U [10:19] DaMaster: so in general try http://distrowatch.com/search.php [10:19] indus: the DE does, yes [10:19] Mhmh [10:19] how can i know if udev created a node or alias to new hardware? [10:19] michaeldobrovits: look in /dev [10:19] indus: the ubuntu underneath wil be identical if you mean xubuntu / ubuntu [10:19] g[r]eek: i recommend using netfilter to log data [10:20] DaMaster: ActionParsnip:So can damaster install xubuntu if limited by space? [10:20] DaMaster: but puppy linux is probably what you need.. but I don't understand why you think it will be better than the live cd you are using [10:20] ikonia -- how does udev calls an ethernat card [10:20] indus: i guess so yeah [10:20] indus: I am using xubuntu... the answer is not really [10:20] michaeldobrovits: ethernet cards don't appear in /dev [10:20] ActionParsnip: 1GB is not enough for xubuntu [10:20] indus: i'd just use something less bloated like puppy or DSL [10:20] How can you dont uderstand? [10:20] beli: What other traffic is there that I should be concerned about? [10:20] Oh [10:21] DaMaster: it'll be slow and you won't be able to install much [10:21] lesshaste: can be if you boot the live cd on the usb [10:21] ActionParsnip: ya i agree, puppy is nice, [10:21] DaMaster: what's the advantage? [10:21] ikonia --> so how can i know if the hardware has been identified [10:21] Hi, could anybody know why by clicking Mouse failing to open any applications on Ubuntu 9.04?? [10:21] ActionParsnip: yes absolutely but he's already on the live cd [10:21] Maybe there is no :( [10:21] michaeldobrovits: "lshal" should show it [10:21] ActionParsnip: so I don't see the advantage [10:21] Oh whatever [10:21] lesshaste: usb speed rather than cd speed [10:21] DaMaster: install puppy linux :) [10:21] IT could be faster to boot it [10:21] ActionParsnip: right.. is it much better? [10:21] Hi, could anybody know why by clicking Mouse fail to open any applications on Ubuntu 9.04?? [10:21] lesshaste: its a bit faster yes [10:22] DaMaster: how much disk space u have? [10:22] ActionParsnip: ok.. I assume he's on usb 2 [10:22] lesshaste: no moving cd etc, seek times are faster [10:22] ikonia --> doesn't udev creates alias to all hardware? [10:22] afancy: um...what? are you saying you can't launch any applications from the menu? [10:22] g[r]eek: networking overhead....and depends on the services you run.....mail, ftp, database, ...whatever [10:22] michaeldobrovits: not ethernet cards [10:22] lesshaste: firewire is better still [10:22] 1GB in USB [10:22] ikonia: what about in /etc/udev.d/70-persistent-net.rules? [10:22] indus: [10:22] maco: check it out - it won't create a device in /dev [10:23] DaMaster: puppy will use about 60Mb of the stick and will give you a basic desktop [10:23] ikonia: oh i know that, but wasnt he trying to find out if it's recognized? [10:23] Mhm [10:23] maco: I don't know to be honest [10:23] Will i be abble to install FF/pidgin? [10:23] into USB [10:23] ok Thanks [10:23] DaMaster: i tink they are already on [10:23] :O [10:23] Cool [10:24] DaMaster: well its swiftfox [10:24] :) [10:24] Eh? [10:24] :D [10:24] ikonia -- > does lspci should show it after the module has been loaded? [10:24] michaeldobrovits: if you just want to see if the ethernet device is recognized, it'll show in your "lshal" output and in /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules [10:24] DaMaster: which has its root in firefox [10:24] Hi, could anybody know why by clicking Mouse fail to open any applications on Ubuntu 9.04?? [10:24] michaeldobrovits: lspci is nothing to do with the modules, it's a static file being read due to pci'id's [10:24] Is there a way to search for a folder in terminal? [10:24] TarBar: find [10:24] afancy: try making a new user and loggin on as that [10:24] has Ubuntu 9.04 fixed power management? - ie, so you get notified when the computer is about to run out of power? [10:24] TarBar: man find [10:24] afancy: see if its the profile rather than the system [10:24] TarBar: I get that in 8.04/8.10 [10:24] michaeldobrovits: that fules file will also tell you which module it uses [10:25] michaeldobrovits: rules* [10:25] maco , ikonia ---> thanx [10:25] ActionParsnip: can i delete something in my home directory [10:25] Huh? [10:25] afancy: yes [10:25] ûû [10:25] ok, I'll just download it and see what happens then... [10:25] ActionParsnip: there is many important things for my current user, i cannot change it [10:25] afancy: its less destructive to make a new user rather than messing with your own profile [10:26] hi [10:26] afancy: thats why you should make a new user, its only to test, you can have more than one user on a system [10:26] I've found the sound quality is bad in the latest version [10:26] I have rebuild a kernel according to the guide at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel/Compile#Install%20the%20new%20kernel, yet when I want to install the .deb package with the headers, it tells me that "linux-headers-2.6.28-13-server: Depends: linux-headers-2.6.28-13 but it is not installable" Any pointers/ideas? [10:26] ah dced. Was there a way? [10:27] Hi, I'm looking for a backup suite that uses rsync (or something similar) that can backup using ssh or samba and is possible just to select a few folders and exclude everything else (so just /home/foo/bar not /home/foo/.bar as well). Any ideas? [10:27] ziroday: use rsync over ssh [10:27] beli: I was hoping for something a little simpler to configure [10:27] ziroday: rsync is the tool you want [10:27] ActionParsnip: that's interesting.. I was just talking to someone who said usb 2 have made firewire pointless [10:27] ziroday: http://troy.jdmz.net/rsync/index.html [10:28] beli: ikonia: I'l go read up, thanks! [10:28] ziroday: simpler? rtfm and do it on your own ;) rsync can do all you need [10:28] lesshaste: hardly, usb2 is really bursty, firewire is buffered so is faster although rated at a slower speed on paper, USB2 has a lot of gaps in the data [10:28] ziroday: you can write a simple shellscript later on to do your job via cron for example [10:29] Question: Is there any way to organize song files in Amarok 2 like there was in 1.4? [10:29] beli: yep, that's the plan, and the link looks most helpful, thanks [10:29] ziroday: yw [10:29] DinkyDogg: i have a repo for 1.4 in jaunty if you like [10:29] ActionParsnip, i remember you [10:29] i've seen you here before [10:30] ActionParsnip, i'd like that [10:30] ActionParsnip: premably that buffering can be done at the OS level unless you mean that latency is poor in the worst case on USB? [10:30] DinkyDogg: deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/bogdanb/ppa/ubuntu jaunty main [10:30] ActionParsnip: presumably [10:30] thanks [10:31] lesshaste: its offtopic here, go research it [10:31] ziroday: one hint for you as a rsync newbie: take care of trailing slashes with pathnames... [10:31] ActionParsnip: I love the IRC "go" :) [10:31] what is the new key combo to restart X instead of ctl alt bcspace [10:31] DinkyDogg: you'll need to add the key yourself [10:31] ActionParsnip: does anyone say that kind of thing in real life? [10:31] lesshaste: "go"? [10:31] !dontzap | indus [10:31] indus: To re-enable the Ctrl+Alt+Backspace combination that restarts your X server, you can install the "dontzap" package and use the command « sudo dontzap --disable ». The combination Alt+SysRq+K can also be used to obtain a similar effect. [10:31] hi!: javac: command not found. I already have all sun-java6-* packages. What I'm missing? [10:32] ActionParsnip: as in "go research it" [10:32] alt sysrq k ok thanks [10:32] lesshaste: thats how i talk [10:32] ActionParsnip, what's the command to get the key to your repo? [10:32] rww: sorry but i wont install any package just for doing some basic stuff [10:32] HI [10:32] ActionParsnip: blimey [10:32] DinkyDogg: whats the little hex code you get when you run: sudo apt-get update [10:33] rww: but thanks :) [10:33] ikonia: ok, so i need to check ldap.conf ? [10:33] ActionParsnip, B9F1C432AE74AE63 [10:33] indus: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Config/DontZap does the same thing [10:33] i got desktop icons lost . and right clicking menuis nt working ..... i used this command and it vanished all the desktop icons .... but this command is not showing them all again gconftool-2 -s '/apps/nautilus/preferences/show_desktop' --type bool true [10:33] how to get desktop active again ? [10:33] arvind_khadri: depends what's failing your samba credentials or the generic ldap credentials [10:33] I'm installing Ubuntu - and I have a few partitions. I have openSUSE installed on sda1, and I have set that to mount to /suse. I have a home partition on sda2, which I have set to mount as /home. I have Mandriva installed on sda3, and have set that to mount as /mandriva. I have a sda4 which I plan to install Ubuntu to. Firstly - I have set all of things to "Use as: Ext3 journaling files system". Is that right? It says that sda1-4 are of t [10:33] indus: just edit xorg.conf [10:33] who are these people/users who complain to canonical to disable ctl alt bspce [10:33] indus: dontzap (the package) is just a frontend for dontzap (the xorg.conf setting). silly, I know. [10:34] indus: ppl with security in mind [10:34] rww: i added dont zap in xorg and my display wont start i swear [10:34] rww: it doesnt work [10:34] DinkyDogg: gpg --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv AE74AE63; gpg --export --armor AE74AE63 | sudo apt-key add - [10:34] DinkyDogg: all one line [10:34] ikonia: its the ldap ones which are failing, as samba ones are proper, /etc/ldap/ldap.conf ? [10:34] hi!: javac: command not found. I already have all sun-java6-* packages. What I'm missing?? [10:34] arvind_khadri: ok [10:34] indus: works fine for me. I suspect you didn't add it right. But, I'm going to bed, so hopefully someone else can figure it out. [10:35] DinkyDogg: its the last 8 chars in the code [10:35] rww: i shall use ctl sysrq K i hope that key isnt disable in karmic due to some dumb fool hitting it accidentally [10:35] any idea anyone why i cant select the scan mode in Xsane? i need a black and white and there is only color awailable! :( [10:35] Any answers to my question? [10:35] wooo ! ctrl alt backspace logged me out :P [10:35] !! [10:35] I am working with apache.

[10:36] !nocd [10:36] Sorry, I don't know anything about nocd [10:36] bah [10:36] TAsn: if you have free space you can configure lilo to boot the iso [10:36] TAsn: gentoo.. nooooo :) [10:36] beli: lol ive been over that. If I have access to the vhost I should edit that. Either way, i still need to know the option [10:36] gentoo rocks [10:36] I'm installing Ubuntu - and I have a few partitions.

But it is more for allowing users who don't have access to the actual default file [10:38] but mainly I need to know if I should do "Format the partition" for my sda4 option in the install. i plan to install Ubuntu to sda4 [10:38] And if I set the mount point of sda4 to "/", then will that make it the main Ubuntu install partition? [10:38] JacobGee: if you want a clean file system on it, yes [10:38] Package namespace questions: Is there a reserved prefix for packages that are used only locally, like "custom-"?

[10:39] arvind_khadri: no [10:39] The sda4 partition is completely new (I made it from a opensuse live cd), but it says it has 635MB used. Could openSUSE have put something on there that I need?

[10:41] ziroday: these are tools on tools....i like it the pure way ;) so i know what is going on....if you are searching for tools like deja-dup.....you can query freshmeat.net next time ;) [10:42] beli: Is it even possible to specify in the block what users from the .htaccess file I want to allow?

The first one works with the test sound and the second one does not. In vlc I can force it to use this device and then it works. But in mplayer I can't and things like youtube don't work at all. I've never had a problem like this before so I'm not sure how to deal w [10:45] Is there a way to globally force these apps to use the correct device? [10:45] ScottG: sure...but you need to separate the users having access....so the better way is to have multiple files [10:45] nice [10:46] does Jaunty comes up with 'UXA' enabled by default? === dereine[OFF] is now known as dereine [10:46] my locale is set to english gb, but when i launch aria its in japaneese/chineese/korean..

Strangely, this morning my sound strangely does not work anymore. I have a Sound Blaster Audigy 4 [15:25] space_cadet: is it hibernating properly? [15:25] Hi all, I am trying to change my screen resolution on 9.04 to 1024 x 1028. Does anyone know if this is possible? [15:26] I noticed that, on a fresh install of Jaunty, Firefox gives me the opportunity to install 1 of 3 Flash plugins and I've always instinctively chosen Adobe Flash. Are either of the other 2 alternatives worth my time? [15:26] h00k, well... it appears to go into hibernation properly (with various usb errors) [15:26] chuck: the page you gave me describes to edit /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 but my /etc/X11/ doesnt contain that file [15:26] Adobe Flash just seems to be getting worse and worse... at least on 64-bit platforms. [15:26] chuck: do I have to create it myself? [15:26] h00k, but on "resume" it just boots like i did a normal powerdown [15:26] They like adding features, not fixing bugs. [15:26] space_cadet: thats what hibernate is, [15:26] didmyou try and reboot [15:26] space_cadet: and then it should resume your applications that you had open [15:26] h00k, nope [15:27] chuck_: yes [15:27] chuck: and neither does /etc/X11/fs/ [15:27] h00k, like i said.. it just boots like i did a normal power down [15:27] space_cadet: interesting, I'm not sure what to tell you... [15:28] h00k, you could tell me to stop trying to hibernate :) [15:28] space_cadet: that would work [15:28] why isnt it possible to use more then one apt-get at the same time ? [15:28] How does one go about changing the Remote Desktop port in Jaunty? [15:28] space_cadet: perhaps check launchpad with your make/model of hardware and submit/subscribe to a bug [15:28] i mean i can suspend just fine [15:28] jlaroche: it a terminal type pulseaudiio restart the sudo alsa force-reload [15:28] was just thinking of it.

I usually end up installing adobes flash and java.. not sure if there is anything I'd called essential [16:15] How can I determine the version of the dav_svn module installed in Apache? [16:15] Blodskur: irssi for IRC :-) [16:15] I'm using XChat at the moment because I liked its Windows counterpart, but I could try that. [16:16] hggdh: Thanks. I can see a Passwords with all my passwords and wifi keys, but how do I change the password that protects them all? [16:16] Blodskur: if you prefer the GUI, then irssi is not for you [16:16] Ah, okay. [16:17] z [16:17] Harkins, right-click on the one you want to change, select change password [16:17] I find it nice and simple, I don't really do a lot of IRCin' so I don't really need a crazy setup like some people are used to.

Nothing complex about it. [16:17] Intrepid still had the switch, but now it's gone [16:17] Blodskur, then stick with xchat, for sure. irssi is for people with too much time on their hands :) [16:17] e-squizo: yeah...let me know if you find that [16:17] Harkins, (actually, "other-click".

[16:26] I dunno first time I had this issue [16:27] markupdate, you can certainly do it in the setup-process. but it's quite trivial to do it afterwards as well, so it doesn't really matter.

[16:28] Slart: thanks , so "lm" represents "long mode" so if you grep flags /proc/cpuinfo and u see in the flags colums the flag "lm" it is 64 [16:28] Soul_Shadow: Why are you trying to install every version of java at the same time? [16:28] Soul_Shadow, if there's no bug report, even an 'easy' fix will take longer or not happen at all... [16:28] hwilde, ? [16:28] I have been setting up a PXE cluster and two of the machines I am installing use different nic drivers than the others, can I add a flag to the kernel boot flags to tell it to load the driver for that particular nic before continuing to boot the system, I really do not want to recompile the entire kernel for this.

[16:28] Soul_Shadow, and where did you get ttf-lucida? [16:28] I am running apt-et install sun-java* [16:29] Soul_Shadow: Why? Thats not the recommended way of installing java. [16:29] If I type in sun-java6 or 5 its not found [16:29] hwilde, I realised that this version allows detaching windows/channels, so I'm a wee bit happy about xchat now... [16:29] can someone help me figure out why my evolution email notifications are not working? [16:29] FROM java packages [16:29] its tryign to install them [16:29] Soul_Shadow: Because those aren't the package names. You'd need sun-java6-jre for example [16:29] hggdh: the problem is, Soul_Shadow installs java*, which installs java-fonts5 and java-fonts6 and both provide ttf-lucida virtual package, that conflicts with each other [16:29] Soul_Shadow: sudo aptitude install sun-java6-jre sun-java6-plugin [16:29] Can anyone tell me the block size of jaunty [16:30] aptitude? im running ubuntu 9.04 [16:30] Gabrys, OK.

[17:36] ohb66, it is a developer/builder option to create static binaries. You will have to look at each of them to find out id they provide static or dynamically linked binaries [17:36] i mean any icon or path i can go to that [17:36] any professionals who can connect to me using remote desktop viewer and put a vista theme onto my computer? [17:36] I'm a bit slow today.. what is the command to find my workign directory? [17:36] markupdude1, you'll need to mount it somewhere (man mount) [17:36] hi there...i want to upgrade my wxwidgets to 2.8.10 compiling them manually...but first i should remove the 2.8.9...but doing this in synaptic will uninstall 2 apps i need...

[17:38] !themes > tanveer [17:38] tanveer, please see my private message [17:39] mgolisch: Uninstalling nvidia worked! thanks. :) [17:39] yess... it works! [17:39] hi there...i want to upgrade my wxwidgets to 2.8.10 compiling them manually...but first i should remove the 2.8.9...but doing this in synaptic will uninstall 2 apps i need... [17:39] ohemgy: by the way, and for future reference, asking the same question every few seconds is a quick way to get added to an ignore list. [17:39] keith_: hehe [17:39] !themes > pici [17:39] pici, please see my private message [17:39] tanveer, you can do that more easily with KDE or better still, IceWM [17:39] i cant! [17:39] sipio:well with that can i make it a portable apps? sorry..my bad... [17:39] tanveer, please don't PM without asking first. Themes in Ubuntu are quite easy, please read that webpage. [17:39] tanveer: Why did you do that? [17:40] it doesnt work ive been trying it for weeks [17:40] hi, i have problems with alsa, i dont have sound in my headphones, but it sound beautiful by my integrated speakers on the laptop [17:40] pici i just copied what u said [17:40] lukavia, try running alsamixer from a console [17:40] its impossible!!! [17:40] tanveer: Please *read* the message that ubottu sent you about themes. [17:40] ? [17:40] hello everybody - is there anyone here that knows how to fix the nvidia drivers in ubuntu 9.04?

[17:41] tanveer, go read this webpage: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuEyeCandy [17:41] vnc://tanveer-desktop.local. [17:41] nope...still saying cannot find installed adobe flash control [17:41] Hi all, I've got a major partitioning error when installing Ubuntu: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1147096 [17:41] Gumby: i did that - it says alsa version 1.0.18, but i just installed 1.0.20 - and i dont have the JACK slider........... [17:41] ohemgy: that's the advantage of static binaries: they don't rely upon having any extra libraries installed. in fact, most of the basic unix system binaries are statically compiled, so they still work even on a mostly-broken system. [17:42] Is there a program to view a .jar file that is contained in a .deb without installing? db-gview doesn't open a .jar? [17:42] ohemgy: those are the binaries that live in the various "sbin" directories. [17:42] Gumby: or 3D slider was in 8.10, now i use 9.04 [17:42] ive gone to loads of pages and stuff but i cant do it still [17:42] lukavia, try the consoleversion of alsamixer, works much better [17:42] I've tried pretty much all the how to's that I could find in internet and nothing works [17:42] How can I stress a possibly buggy ACPI? 9.04 seem to have solved my ACPI and tickless problems but I need to be certain before I rely on it. [17:42] boss_mc: yes rebooting shows/mounts my newly created partiton automatically [17:43] markupdude1, kl [17:43] matreya6: give me the command, i am sure i start alsamixer and no 3D slider to activate jack output [17:43] anybody know when Launchpad will get fixed so I can file a bug report? === chuck____ is now known as chuck__ [17:43] i have just downloaded a windows border its .tar.bz2 what now?!? [17:43] no luck chuck_ [17:43] installing the drivers from nvidia website doesn't help - I'm getting even a lower resolution than the default 800x600 one... please help somebody [17:43] akincer, unfortunately, right now, no. The only option is to keep on trying :-( [17:44] anyone any good with samba file shares [17:44] sipior: i was actually thinking if there are any portable linux antivirus???but i can't seem to find one...with the static binaries....can i make an antivirus portable??? [17:44] smr904, is your xorg.conf particularly special? [17:44] oh wow! how come my ubuntu desktop can see my laptop connected to the same wireless router?!! i did not do anything [17:44] lukavia, if you start alsamixer, you should have separate sliders for headphones, not for "JACK" (JACK is a meta audioserver used to connect inputs and outputs with each other) [17:44] then if now i can show my xp laptop to detect ubuntu as well [17:44] ohemgy: systemrescuedisk has clamav, if that's what you mean [17:44] Jillian2: no luck with what [17:44] boss_mc: have no idea anymore - I've reinstalled all drivers and rebuild the xorg from scratch so many times... [17:45] adobe flash plugin [17:45] smr904, are you on 9.04? [17:45] matreya6: i dont have man [17:45] boss_mc: yup [17:45] lukavia, You may have to push the right or the left arrows on your keyboard to see *all* the sliders [17:45] all the problems started after update [17:45] backup your xorg.conf [17:45] then sudo dprk-reconfigure xserver-xorg [17:45] *dpkg [17:45] xorg.conf is barely used now HAL takes over... [17:46] true [17:46] boss_mc: I've done also everyhing from this howto no luck [17:46] Jillian2: oh you changed your nick [17:46] boss_mc: done that [17:46] That's wonderful news. Can't file bugs so the time to fix will be longer [17:46] can't install adobe flashplugin [17:46] when you reboot, start jockey [17:46] and install it from there [17:46] I've spent ages working on Jaunty sound issues - if you want the benefit of my knowledge/trial & error try ---> http://r3dux.org/?p=500 [17:46] matreya6: when i start alsamixer, it says version 1.0.18 even that i installed 1.0.20 just minutes ago [17:47] Jillian2: what did apt say when you tried to install [17:47] says nothing installed [17:47] Not really and advert when the goal is to help.

[18:05] helper: by "global replace" I mean that by appending the 'g', if "2005" occurs twice on one line, both occurrences will be replaced instead of just the first [18:05] r3dux, where did you get that flash.so? I'm having flash issues asa well. Gnash just doesn't cut it.

[18:11] nope, i'll check it out [18:11] matreya6: killall pulseaudio won't make my console alsamixer to start appear 1.0.20, not 1.0.18 - i think there is the key to the success [18:11] thanks Proq [18:11] there are a few os x lookalikes [18:12] Soren_, hard to say - a while, esp. with a full disc like you're burning [18:12] lukavia: There are many keys to PulseAudio success... it's a b1tch. [18:12] lukavia, did you restart alsa after upgrading alsa? [18:12] Restart alsa hasn't worked for years [18:12] Restarting pulseaudio does less [18:12] r3dux, if you use a Ubuntu install CD to install over your existing Ubuntu install, does it keep your user/filesystem? [18:12] it's all about default mixers and asoundconf set-default-card [18:13] proq: i'm not really interested in the visual style of OSX, just the window treatment [18:13] My jaunty wont detect usb anymore. i tried restarting HAL with no help. They used to work [18:13] how can i get phenom II 940 sensors working? [18:13] like, the effect i'm looking for isn't a font change or color change, it's a total overhaul of the system [18:13] Idle, only if you install the system to / while keeping your /home parition separate - if you didn't install linux with /home on a sep partition, back it up before you overwrite it. [18:13] r3dux, I checked the soundcard setup of lukavia, he/ she only has one, see http://paste.ubuntu.com/167019/ [18:14] jonz: those are configurable in gnome and kde to be more osx-ish, and there may even be a wm that specializes in behaving like os x [18:14] jonz: there are a hundred wms, I would google for it [18:14] is there a CD/DVD Creator channel? I am buring a CD usung CD/DVD Creator............................... how ling is it supposed to say "Creating image checksum" for a 700mb program? [18:14] ok, ty [18:14] r3dux, so you're saying in any case, just copy home, to say one of the NTFS partitons, upgrade, then override the new with the old? [18:14] Soren_: till its done [18:14] mat > Get them to "asoundconf list" [18:14] That's gonna work? [18:14] lol [18:14] can I do an install from windows to a disk partition with grub and everything, or only to an image file? [18:14] sigh [18:15] don't yell at me, but is there a package that contains rpm-build? [18:15] hi i have a small problem in mac4lin.anyone using it? [18:15] I'm trying to uninstall kvm to run virtualbox and I can't seem to get the kernel module removed. I can rmmod kvm_intel and reboot, but it will be loaded again. I removed the kernel and reinstalled and that didn't help either [18:15] 10min? 30min? 1hour? 1 day? [18:15] how do I remove kvm kernel module? [18:15] Idle - Copying to NTFS will not keep your file permissions, but to be honest, for most stuff in a home directory, it doesn't matter - just make sure it's backed up before you re-install / install-over-the-top [18:15] duvnel : ARRGH! [18:15] lol [18:16] nobody> [18:16] * ldlework wonders how he can check if his /home is on a secondary partition [18:16] Idle - UNLESS you have your /home partition as a separate partition, in which case just overwrite / and use whatever partition you have as the /home mount point [18:16] salut [18:16] jonz if you find a good OS X wm for ubuntu 9.04, let me know [18:16] matreya6: i restarted the system fully [18:16] will do [18:16] Kevin*: If someone can help they will [18:16] I have one better than os x.. it's called ratpoison [18:16] I would like to run it with Chameleon 2 RC1 on my new i7 hackintosh [18:16] none of those awful screen-real-estate hogging eyecandies [18:17] hehe [18:17] proq: care to link me? [18:17] I'm trying to install Ubuntu server, but it keeps trying to go gui and my monitor won't display that resolution [18:17] lukavia, and...did it work? Do you get alsamixer 1.0.20 now instead of 1.0.18? [18:17] how can I force into text mode? [18:17] shiruken: #ubuntu-server [18:17] shadeslayer: thx [18:17] my webcam worked with 8.10 but not with 9.04 what should I do [18:17] shadeslayer: http://www.nongnu.org/ratpoison/ [18:17] matreya6: no man :( [18:17] anyone know a good gnome frontend for ffmpeg or mencodeR? [18:18] r3dux, it looks like I have single filesystem partition and an extra swap partition that just has "lost+found". Can I move /home to my swap paritition? Or I'm thinking it can't be used for things like that. [18:18] ali, go to update manager, and see if there are any updates [18:18] proq: basically im trying to replace the panel bkgd with a dark png but cant make it work [18:18] !telinit > shiruken [18:18] Sorry, I don't know anything about telinit === isen_ is now known as pvullo [18:18] problem removing module....device busy....How can I force remove it? === pvullo is now known as PereLaOrale [18:18] apostle: kill the process that is using it [18:18] PereLaOrale : stop changing your nick [18:19] I have done the update and still not working [18:19] shiruken, you coudl try the command telinit, even if Ubuntu uses upstart now, it tries to emulate SysV as much as it can to appease older scripts [18:19] wow, ratpoison looks hardcore [18:19] apostle: you shouldn't, try fuser /dev/whatever to find out who uses it [18:19] ali: dunno then :( [18:19] it is :) [18:19] proq: not my type of GUI :P [18:19] Sup [18:19] r3dux, it looks like this other ext3 parition with just lost+found in it is all empty except a few megs, is this swap partition good for storing /home? [18:19] apostle: make the module unbusy is my advice, yu will get issues if you do manage to force remove it [18:20] if I had a 30" monitor and a blazing fast CPU I wouldn't mind gnome or KDE, but I don't ;) [18:20] lukavia, that's a shame. It looks like your old alsamix is still the default. Maybe the new one is installed at an alternate location? [18:20] proq, i have two :) [18:20] i like the windows in Gnome and everything, I just prefer the hierarchical approach to finding the window you want that OSX employs [18:20] ActionParsnip: btw i was trying to usplash to get to wrok again today.failed misreably :) [18:20] is setting up a new drive for use on a network not considered basic knowledge worth documenting? i'm an experienced debian user who knows how to do this. my father, however, is a new ubuntu user, so i pointed him at ubuntu help for starters, and also gnome help. both failed to provide answers. [18:20] jonz: what, command-tab? [18:20] first find the application, then pick from the application windows [18:20] have i missed something obvious? [18:20] Cmd-tab to go to firefox [18:21] so no one using mac4lin ? [18:21] matreya6: no, downloaded from the alsa official site [18:21] then cmd-~ to tab between firefox windows [18:21] jonz: gnome has that. and ratpoison has one better. C-t 3 -> go straight to firefox [18:21] anybody get flash video "flickering" problem? [18:21] hi guys, quick question: if I sudo apt-get install openoffice.org, I'll get the latest version (3.5) right? [18:21] My jaunty wont detect usb anymore. i tried restarting HAL with no help. They used to work. Tail shows that kernel notices, but i cant find them anywhere [18:21] what is the significnce of the 3? [18:21] dlozarie: nope,i think 3.0 is in the repo [18:21] lukavia, did you install a .deb-package for Jaunty, or did you just install a tarball or something like it? [18:21] !info openoffice.org [18:21] openoffice.org (source: openoffice.org): full-featured office productivity suite. In component main, is optional. Version 1:3.0.1-9ubuntu3 (jaunty), package size 4 kB, installed size 44 kB [18:21] o ok. [18:22] jonz: application 3 [18:22] ah [18:22] i could just fix the problem for him, but i'd rather he learn how to use the resources at his disposal to solve his own problems. where should i point him to solve this problem? [18:22] dlozarie: 3.01 [18:22] its 42" BTW and 2000mb conect [18:22] i like cycling through them, often I don't know the exact number that i'm looking for === hello is now known as Guest23186 [18:22] shadeslayer: the system will live ;) [18:22] shadeslayer: ouch. how long do you think we can get 3.5 in the repos? [18:22] ActionParsnip: i know :) [18:22] i need to boost the volume of a mp3 is there a program i can use to do this? [18:22] Melancholy: "detect usb" meaning what? [18:22] boxer_, try Audacity [18:22] dlozarie: maybe the next release.just a guess tho [18:22] matreya6: thanks [18:23] matreya6: i installed the files from http://www.alsa-project.org/main/index.php/Main_Page [18:23] if using audacity.. you've got to "Export" to save.. not just save which saves your project [18:23] matreya6: with ./configure, make and make install [18:23] matreya6: the hard way :) [18:23] duvnell: good to know thanks [18:23] dlozarie: you could manually install tho.i found install instructions for 3.0 on interpid on softpedia.org [18:23] hbekel, meaning that i connect my ext. HD but jaunty cant find it anywhere. Kernel logs says that it is connected (with tail command) [18:24] okay. I downloaded the .tar.gz of 3.5 and installed it, but can't find it anywhere in the application menu. I tried "oocalc" in the command line and it told me open office wasn't installed yet [18:24] matreya6: what you call tarball ? [18:24] duvell, it's much easier to install ALSA 1.0.19 like this -->http://http//ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=6589810 === richard is now known as Guest87884 [18:24] lukavia, that way the location of installation might be botched, * a tarball is a .tar.gz, or .tgz package. === elementz_ is now known as elementz [18:24] dlozarie: no idea on that. [18:24] lukavia, a tarball is the same as a tar archive [18:24] !tar [18:24] Files with extensions .tar, .gz, .tgz, .zip, .bz2, .7z, .ace and other archive file formats can be opened with file-roller (GNOME) or Ark (KDE) - Also see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FileCompression [18:25] ok [18:25] shadeslayer: ok, will try to reinstall. thanks dude [18:25] i used tar.gz files from http://www.alsa-project.org/main/index.php/Main_Page [18:25] dlozarie: no problem [18:25] r3dux, heh my /home folder is 91 gigs [18:25] lukavia, did you install the alsamixer in /usr/bin ? [18:25] Melancholy: what does "jaunty can't find it" mean? can you mount manually? [18:26] Idle, mine was > 200GB ;) Nothing in that really needed special permissions. [18:26] matreya6: it's another question that 2 or 3 of them did not installed properly [18:26] ldlework: good thing terabyte hard drives cost $80 ;) [18:26] hbekel, sorry my bad english. I cant see it in gnome, neither in /media where it usually were mounted [18:26] matreya6: i do not know how to install the alsamixer in /usr/bin [18:26] Is it possible to configure the columns in 'top'? I would like to increase the spacing between PID %MEM, etc. [18:27] luk - sudo apt-get install gnome-alsamixer [18:27] what's the correct package to install flash v 10? There's four different variants in Synaptic... [18:27] lukavia, messing around with unpackaged software, *especially drivers* can put your system in a jumble. The drivers have been installed, but do not seem to be in use as of yet on your system [18:27] sorry, that should be to matreya6 [18:27] god upgrading scares the shit out of me [18:28] The simple facts are that upgrading doesn't work as well as it should. [18:28] Melancholy: it's probably a gnome or hal problem, then. try mounting it manually to make sure. [18:28] i don't find any helper in awk .... then: anyone know how can i concat strings in awk? [18:28] flashplugin-nonfree, flashplugin-nonfree-extras, adobe-flashplugin, flashplugin-installer [18:28] hbekel, you mean forcing? [18:28] I upgraded from 8.04 to 8.10 to 9.04, and it was a mess. Took 2 minutes to boot, and was sketchy. [18:29] hint, awk -F: '{print $1}' [18:29] r3dux: yeah, that sounds like a bad idea [18:29] A clean install on EXT4 partition now takes approx 30 seconds to boot and is a lot "nicer" [18:29] Melancholy: no, try to use the mount command to mount your drive. [18:29] hi, which apps did you adcive to get NZB ? [18:29] Has anyone had success installing netbook remix to acer aspire one. mine went boom and by this I mean it's behaving reall buggy. Moreover, it's reporting 0 bytes in the home directory. [18:29] helper thats no a concat [18:29] r3dux, I don't think that Jaunty has Alsa 1.0.20 yet, checked it in Synaptic, nope current stable package is 1.0.18 [18:29] Melancholy: just trying to narrow down the problem [18:29] matreya6: what advice can you give me now ? [18:30] hint, concat is just space a=b c [18:30] hbekel, hmh.. where i can find "section" name what to mount. It used to be OneTouch4 [18:30] IS there a way to get x11vnc to tell you when someone is connected? [18:30] could someone point me to where I might find the config file that handles the appearance of the "workspaces switcher" in the panel [18:30] lukavia, do you know *exactly* which files your make install installed for you and where the makefile directed the installation? [18:30] hint, although in the usual terse way, 'man awk' should show it [18:31] gingerkid:::: [18:31] r3dux: i did that command sudo apt-get install gnome-alsamixer, shall i restart the system ? [18:31] jonz, check out http://sourceforge.net/projects/mac4lin [18:31] mat > You can always manually upgrade, scripts exist. [18:31] lukavia, you should be able to find it in the makefile, but it can be a mess. [18:31] luk - no!!! This isn't windows! Just run it by typing: gnome-alsamixer =D [18:31] the problem is: i need concat X spaces in a var, using VAR+=" " ..... i cant use string=VAR1 VAR2, i cant create X variables. i need concat in only one [18:32] Melancholy: i don't understand, what's section, Onetouch4? use sth like sudo mount /dev/sd /mnt/. find out the correct /dev/sdsomething for your drive/partition via dmesg [18:32] question: command to copy a directory and all subdirectories to a different location(while leaving them at their current position as well) - I tried cp * ~/Music but it excluded subdirectories of the current directory [18:32] luk > or finding it in the Applications menu at top left of your gnome screen (plz don't say you're using kde...) [18:32] r3dux, true, but scripts are generally tailored for specific distros. [18:32] same with cp ./* ~/Music [18:32] i am looking for some help with wget... i am trying to download my site so that i can edit it... but i can only get the first index page and no others. I have "man wget" but i am not seeing where to follow or get the complete site... can someone tell me what the code is for it? [18:32] bc > you'll need a -R in there somewhere for recursiveness... [18:33] man cp [18:34] mat > You haven't installed a script, you've installed the executable file "gnome-alsamixer" - you can just run it. [18:34] matreya6: it is becoming hard for me to answer your questions .... i do not know where the makefile directed the installation? [18:34] r3dux, thanks [18:34] hi, i am running 8.04 and see in update manager linux-ubuntu-modules-2.6.24-16-generic, which in the description says i do not want to install it but rather linux-generic meta-package, which i did install, but the first package continues to appear in update manager? what should i do? [18:34] phone. brb [18:34] I've configured the workspace switcher to display text only. Only problem is that I'm using #629DBF for text color in windows. The switcher has a dark gray background that makes this text hard to read. I would like to change the color of the text for the workspace switcher only, not the my entire panel [18:34] r3dux: i started gnome-alsamixer and i do not have muted sliders [18:34] hint, you could use sprintf [18:35] luk > Did you read my jaunty sound thing? [18:35] r3dux: i think i missed it ... [18:36] http://r3dux.org/?p=500 [18:36] lukavia, is your sound card supported by ALSA? [18:36] luk - Get down to the updates and it'll be more relevant to you.

[18:40] wng--, I don't believe creative has released a driver for it, but there might be one out there [18:41] wng--, I'm pretty sure it's not default in ALSA either [18:41] hi all... i'v been trying to install UBUNTU on an external drive for an old notebook, i used unetbootin , but i get an error ,> operating system not found... how do i make the drive bootable?

[18:50] Doesn't seem like you did ;) [18:50] and can verify it's currently there [18:50] Would you like a printout of proof? it's there [18:51] matreya6: is that the default tracker in jaunty that does nothing but self corrupt? [18:51] Really, does none of you here use Ekiga or Skype or Gizmo?!

I want to keep the rest of the panels font color the same. Can I accomplish this by editing /usr/share/gconf/schemas/workspace-switcher.schemas and change the line gnome-panel-2.0 to somehting else? [18:52] grtral, no the default tracker in Jaunty is Transmission...Ah, you mean tracker as in the file/ appsearcher "tracker", the imitation of Apple(r) Spotlight??

How can i tell if its a software or hardware problem? [18:54] gartral, there should be an alternative, Beagle, if you are not allergic to Mono, that is...

[18:55] thanks erUSUL [18:55] bcmorr2, there's the server version, if you don't need a GUI at all... [18:55] matreya6: for that matter, locate | grep works better [18:55] Madpilot, what is it called? [18:55] ksbalaji: you will find fewer problems usually with a clean upgrade [18:55] its a different computer (not this one) and its not picking up the same wireless right now [18:55] r3dux: thanks for the help so far ;) [18:55] gartral, yes locate works fine, if you cull the lines a bit with a clever grep here and there [18:55] can i do something like dd if=/dev/sdb1 of=/myfile would that work? [18:55] bcmorr2, it's got the very original name of Ubuntu Server Edition [18:55] bcmorr2: thanks for the help so far ;) [18:55] Kevin`, I think you have to set it up during your *buntu installation [18:55] lukavia, no problem, any luck or is it still a nogo?

I'm missing the proprietary driver for my ati radeon mobility 9000. when i manually install fglrx X won't start anymore until un-installed. I thought i was UPgrading. Can you help me figure out what happend? [18:57] Kevin`, I was looking at using LVM not to long ago. I have a link I looked at for reference --> http://www.debuntu.org/how-to-install-ubuntu-over-lvm-filesystem [18:57] gartral, is it a daemon? In that case you should probably look for the starting/ stopping arguments in /etc/init.d === Meatball is now known as Mesyte [18:57] jet - I had to use EnvyNG to install a proprietery ATI drive in the same situation. [18:57] hello i want to limit size of user kad. i don't know much on quota but where should i put max size for user kad ? which file ? [18:58] jet - EnvyNG is in the repos [18:58] Madpilot - Thank you the MD5 is wrong. I will re-download the file and try again. [18:58] alright... dumb Q: how do i list running daemons?

BT has built-in error checking as it downloads... [18:58] proq, Now am too tired for testing OSs! Since Hardy has stabilised, I just would like to know whether going for Jaunty is advisable. How stable is Jaunty please? [18:59] exodus_ms: that works I suppose, saves me some time from downloading the alternate install cd [18:59] r3dux: no, it is not a daemon, but it does get started when i plug a flashdrive, or my dap in [18:59] matreya6, actually i didn't understand :( [18:59] my wireless is saying it is disabled but the switch is on...does anyone know how i can check if its a software problem? [18:59] if you want to do it from the cmdline, try usermod [18:59] ksbalaji: jaunty works great here.. installed on three different machines and two vms [18:59] ela_: try doing "sudo ifconfig wlan0 up" [18:59] thank you [18:59] oops, I mean six machines [19:00] A shortcut to that is "sudo ifup wlan0" [19:00] Kevin`, sorry I couldn't be more help. Like I said, I looked into it but I was just too lazy to actually try it :P [19:00] är det safe att börja köra 9.04 ? [19:00] r3dux:jet: proprietary driver dropped support for 9xxx x1xxx and x2xxx series. [19:00] three of them wouldn't work with 8.10 [19:00] hmmm ...it says no such device [19:00] proq, Ah! That sounds great. Have used earlier versions? fiesta, gutsy, hardy, intr..?

[19:00] helper, if you want to do it from the cmdline, try usermod [19:01] proq, Nice to hear it. [19:01] I moved from yellow dog and red hat to ubuntu when it first came out [19:01] sorry, i'm new to this [19:01] i was commenting on the suggestion you made to jet.

[19:02] !swedish > jonz [19:02] jonz, please see my private message [19:03] ksbalaji, every new increment of a distro is bound to have *some* unfound bugs, so [19:03] TheFunkbomb: or you *could* also go in your machine and simply unplug it [19:03] matreya6, u mean create a user? or directory for home ? [19:03] I just got finished putting it together. I'm not taking it apart again [19:03] any idea if they ext4 deleting big files bug is being worked on. [19:03] Madpilot, thank you [19:04] helper, with usermod you can adjust the rights and settings for users, you can for instance define the size of a homedir, yes... [19:04] luis_, right-click on a PDF, choose Properties, select the default opening app [19:04] Madpilot: thanks [19:04] when enabling compiz on 904 after upgrade alt+fx (1,2,3) shortcuts no longer work [19:04] how do you get to a bash prompt without starting x11? [19:04] matreya6, i try don't find a option to define size . i try man usermod can u check it for min ? [19:05] jonz, gee jonz are you telling yourself that you are using swedish? lol... [19:05] staticmatic, on the login screen choose options/select session [19:05] staticmatic, then load failsafe terminal [19:05] I just downloaded sketchup, but when I double click the .exe it opens archive manager instead of offering to install WINE [19:05] haha, just wanted to see what it did ;) [19:05] im install 9.04 with the 9.04 live cd and im installing ext4 do i need to specify a mount point for / ? [19:05] helper, sure...just a moment [19:05] cheers bcmorr2 [19:05] matreya6, thx [19:05] Isn't 9.04 supposed to automatically install WINE? [19:05] proq, By the way, When you clean install upgrades, how do you keep track of third party apps? I have a few. Also, how do you separate your home folders from being deleted? I never tried clean upgrades fearing losing data. [19:05] ethana2: never heard of that... just use synaptic [19:05] ethana2, I don't think so but it's easily installed from your gui with the package selector [19:06] oh. [19:06] I keep hearing about all these features in ubuntu that aren't there, like the 3d user picker, hopefully that'll come in 9.10.. [19:06] ksbalaji: having /home on a seperate partition helps with that [19:06] matreya6, thanks [19:06] but I guess WINE is in main [19:07] hi.. how can i disassociate the *.exe file opening by wine? [19:07] supersasho: System > Preferences > Preferred Applications, I believe [19:08] * erUSUL wonders what else is going to use supersasho to open exe files [19:08] same here [19:08] I have a GX630 and the brighteness controls do not work. Can any one help? [19:08] well, mono uses .exe.. F-Spot is actually an .exe [19:08] helper, here's some nice reading for you.

[19:15] matreya6, No filesystems with quota detected. [19:15] hi, does anyone know why i can download my SVN without a username or password? (or if there is a good channel to ask) [19:16] erUSUL: and im right now trying to add a windows machine to the workgroup i made [19:16] what's the recommended windows cd burning program [19:16] helper, true, but you should enable quota mgmt. for the filesystems first, as discussed in the Debian article I linked you to previously [19:16] ethana2: the question isn't why, it's how :) if you do know how to disassociate .exe from Wine, please let me know :) [19:16] ksbalaji: the home folder is a important building block of the linux model for handling users... why would you want it to poin to a random folder ?? [19:17] supersasho: I'm doing the exact opposite here... [19:17] alex12093, probably because anonymous gets are allowed [19:17] ksbalaji: if you want easy access to some other folder from places just make a bookmark in nautilus [19:17] Kevin`: Canonical should say. In fact, Canonical should make one. [19:17] macvr, are you using it as a hard disk install? [19:17] Kevin`: I'll try to remember what I used.. [19:17] hello. any of you using rtorrent 0.8.4 and can help me out? my rtorrentrc is at http://pastebin.com/f69ae43d [19:17] symlink doesn't work [19:17] Kevin`: I think I used this one: http://isorecorder.alexfeinman.com/isorecorder.htm [19:18] Kevin`: this is the support channel for ubuntu, for windows ask in an appropriate channel please [19:18] hggdh, do you know if that would that be something I'd change in apache, dav_svn or svn?? [19:18] macvr, you there? [19:18] bcmorr2: i want to install ubuntu for the other notebook [19:18] macvr ok [19:18] Kevin`: infrarecorder is my personal choice GPL's and quite powerfull [19:18] guntbert: how is he supposed to get ubuntu without a cd burner? [19:18] macvr, if you're installing it on an external, I believe you're still going to need to make it a "hard drive" install on it [19:18] guntbert: Canonical needs to tell people what cd burner to use 'cause little ol' windows doesn't come with basic functionality like that [19:18] ooh a gpl one for windows, didn't know there was one [19:18] macvr, that way it installs a bootloader onto the external drive if you plan on it booting [19:18] bcmorr2: ok... [19:19] erUSUL, I am under the impression that a clean upgrade install will wipe off contents of home folder. Thats why I want to have a partition of home folder and a separate system folder for clean upgrades. [19:19] macvr, I'm not 100% positive [19:19] iso burner rather, it can burn other stuff I think [19:19] bcmorr2: how do i install a boot loader? [19:19] macvr I've never used unetbootin to be honest [19:19] ethana2: Kevin`: sorry, I misinterpreted :-/ [19:19] macvr, but it sounds like you're missing a bootloader on your drive and you need one [19:19] bcmorr2: then how should i install> [19:19] macvr, I might suggest grabbing the .iso from ubuntu.com, burning it and installing from it [19:20] guntbert: I hear Vista doesn't come with a bittorent client yet either.. === GodFather_ is now known as GodFather [19:20] most people I convert have to install like two things before they even get ubuntu on a disc [19:20] macvr, Probably not the most effiecent way to fix your problem, but it's the only way I know to help you [19:20] bcmorr2: i have the iso.. but that notebook doesnt boot from live usb ! [19:20] ethana2: :-) [19:20] Kevin`, I use ImgBurn through Wine because there is no real alternative for it yet, that runs natively in Linux/ Unix [19:20] läget Ax-Ax [19:20] matreya6: brasero? [19:20] what. [19:20] macvr, is it possible that the bios doesn't support liveusb? [19:21] matreya6: what does imgburn do extra that you need to run it in wine? [19:21] bra aså zicho [19:21] where can i ask questions about postgis? [19:21] bcmorr2: it seems so, even the usb dvd drive didnt work! [19:21] are you still there iceroot ? [19:21] hi.. how can i disassociate the *.exe files to be opened by wine? [19:21] zicho bra att höra [19:21] :D [19:21] alex12093, see (for example) http://svnbook.red-bean.com/nightly/en/svn.serverconfig.httpd.html#svn.serverconfig.httpd.authz.perdir.ex-2 [19:21] macvr, "Some computers, particularly older ones, may not have a BIOS that supports USB booting. Many which do support USB booting may still be unable to boot the device in question. In these cases a computer can often be "redirected" to boot from a USB device through use of an initial bootable CD or floppy disk. [1]" [19:21] ethana2, No brasero can´t burn DVD Video and ask for a proper layer break for DL-disks. Brasero is much too limited for my goals [19:22] alex12093, ideally, read it all ;-) [19:22] hggdh, thank you [19:22] !swedish > Ax-Ax [19:22] Ax-Ax, please see my private message [19:22] matreya6: ah, so, nothing I'd be doing.. [19:22] hi [19:22] macvr, perhaps you could look up more information on making one of the boot cds or boot floppys that will point to your usb device [19:22] erUSUL, Am I not right when I said that /home and sub folders will be cleaned when I go in for a clean upgrade installation? [19:23] ethana2, ImgBurn is no general burner, it is quite specialized for DVD Video use. [19:23] bcmorr2: that might be the last thing ... but i want to see if i can install boot loader === christiekoehler| is now known as christiekoehler [19:23] where are your do ?

It's basic fare really [19:24] ethana2> you take to with ? [19:24] matreya6: yes [19:24] love: what? [19:24] macvr, I could instruct you on insuring your device has a bootloader if you were to install from the cd, but if you're looking to do it a different way it might help for you to find someone with a bit more knowledge of the program you're using [19:24] I have 2TB of avis I stream through TwonkyMedia (app) to my XBox 360 - no need for .isos [19:25] where are you come from ?hehe [19:25] where are you come from ? [19:25] love: I recommend finding the ubuntu irc channel that corresponds to your native tongue, and I'd rather not say where I'm from [19:25] r3dux, Avis, neh... I go for proper quality.

[19:26] thats what it says [19:26] matrey - don't.... these avi's, although not in the right container -work-, and are top notch. No TS's, DVD encodes using h.264 and lame via handbrake [19:26] bcmorr2: i was wondering ... when i boot into the live cd, how do i force it to install on the external drive and not the internal drive? [19:27] macvr>,,you are creayz [19:27] would you give us some more details please [19:27] macvr, when you're setting up the partitions, there should be an option "use this whole device" I believe [19:27] r3dux, I like fiddling around with DVD Menus, I make in such a way that they will run on a regular stand-alone DVD player [19:27] macvr, and then you can select a device other than your hd [19:27] After upgrading to 904 my alt+f2 and alt+f2 bindings no longer work when using compiz [19:27] macvr: that's part of the install process, just use common sense and read what your doing [19:28] love: my internal drive is fine the external deosnt have [19:28] r3dux, ... I make >them< in such a ... [19:28] ooo [19:28] Kevin`: i have differnt prob, pls follow the problem!

[20:09] pepperjack: there are some really cool app I can run using ssh, like irssi, mutt, nrss, .. if I could get a browser with graphics, I could use it almost like a complete computer hehe [20:09] irssi [20:09] laclasse, can you explain then why I have this problem?

[20:11] Kevin`: thank you [20:12] Hi... does anyone know how to use a panning resolution? ie, 1024x768 on a 1024x600 [20:12] hi guys. I seem to have lost the bar at the top of the screen, where you start apps. any idea how I can get it back, other than reinstalling? :) [20:12] has anyone here using a radeon r400 r500 or r600 series video card had problems with compiz after upgrading to 9.04? [20:12] Vesta, right click on the bottom bar, and pick 'add panel' [20:12] Vesta: the panel you mean ? [20:12] Vesta, however try logging in and ack of gnome to make sure it has really disapper before you are adding one [20:13] Vesta: you could remove the gnome-related config stuff from your home dir [20:13] can any1 help me find out da password for my wifi [20:13] pm [20:13] Vesta: the panel settings are per-user [20:13] pm me [20:13] laclasse, thanks but I don't have that one either. I tried taking off pulseaudio to fix a sound issue, it took ubuntu-netbook-remix with it, and then the bar went [20:13] prefrontal_home, nice to see that you have figured it out yourself. I suspect there is also an evironment variable that will tell you exactly the same, but there are more roads that lead to Rome ;-) [20:13] Vesta, apt-get install gnome-panel -y [20:13] nobody uses ldap? [20:13] anyone using a radeon 9xxx, x1xxx, or x2xxx in 9.04 with compiz? [20:14] zee: we told you, if the router is yours and you forgot your password for it, reset it to factory defaults(use google to find out how) and then re-setup your router. [20:14] and if so, have you had any problems? [20:15] brassmaster: x1400... huge problems of random x restarts [20:15] i have the sun-java60jre debian package and it requires the download of the bin package too......if i download that too how can i make them install simultaneously ? [20:15] if I want to install k3b and open Syanptic Package Manager.......and quick search "k3b"............ how many of those found should be installed? "k3b"? "k3b-i18n"? "k3b-data"? "libk3b3"? ........and more? [20:15] in 9.04 is it possible to swap out monitors without having to manually exit the xfree.conf file? [20:15] zee: For the last time; we won't help you hack your wifi [20:15] noob: The reason i'm asking is that i'm running an x1600 with 9.04 and under compiz i have no window borders [20:15] laclasse, is there an alsa process I should look for and see which user is on it? [20:15] !gnome-panel [20:15] Sorry, I don't know anything about gnome-panel [20:16] Soren_, pick k3b only, the rest will be pulled during depandancy check, if necessary [20:16] anyone have a link for 2.6.30 rc kernels? [20:16] 9.04-alt doesn't do upgrades via boot, it's not an option. does the desktop edition? 8.10 gnome bug crashed 9.04 45min before end and now the laptop won't startx or mount the CD [20:16] laclasse, ty [20:16] hareldvd, what for? ;) [20:16] i have the sun-java60jre debian package and it requires the download of the bin package too......if i download that too how can i make them install simultaneously ? [20:16] question, if i want files to be created with setgid and have the file be writable, how to i achieve this [20:16] hareldvd, whats your problem really ? no sound ? [20:16] brassmaster: i have window borders.. have u tried reloading the window manager/ changing it to metacity? [20:16] Anybody have any luck getting aMule to recieve a high-ID status? [20:16] i have window borders with metacity. [20:16] Vesta, you can reset gnone panels to default [20:16] not with compiz. [20:17] laclasse, I've done that through ctrl+alt+f1. should I restart to see anything change? [20:17] you are wise, it chose 13 of them [20:17] noob: my compiz window decorator is set to emerald [20:17] laclasse, Problem is every boot audio volume resets so master is set on 0 and muted. [20:17] brassmaster: ati sucks! [20:17] sysdoc, ooh... how can I do that? :) [20:17] oops 12 [20:17] noob: thanks [20:17] pronoy: sun java is in the repos you know [20:17] brassmaster: EMERALD IS OLD,.... TRY COMPIZ [20:17] what is an open source alternative to quicktime,flash and java jre? [20:17] Vesta, try a reboot ;) [20:18] hateball: unable to satisfy dependecies due to lack of resources.....so need the debian package installation solution [20:18] noob: Okay...you do realize that emerald and compiz do entirely different things, right? [20:18] thanks. brb :) [20:18] Anybody have any luck getting aMule to recieve a high-ID status? [20:18] hareldvd, ah ok [20:18] GodfatherofEire: that's explained all over the net [20:18] apart from glabels, is there any good cd/dvd cover printing software? or is it coverxp wine for me [20:18] noob: the x1400 works fine if you use the open source driver [20:18] get more resources [20:18] hareldvd, try this: alsamixer (as root) [20:18] Vesta, I have a couple of links, I'll pm them to ya [20:18] I am not able to play Texas Holdem' Poker in facebook in Firefox in Ubuntu.. Any idea why?? [20:18] GodfatherofEire, I have, it's a matter of configuring your NAT the right way. [20:18] rob0917: java jre is open source. quicktime, there's tons of video formats available [20:18] hbekel, I know, and I've tried most ways [20:18] hareldvd, set the volumes you need, quit with 'ESC' then do as root: alsactl store [20:18] brassmaster: ya ... i know... but emerald is just old [20:18] Pici: are you running an x1400 with the open source driver? [20:18] brassmaster: I am. [20:19] Pici: x1400 gives me random x restarts [20:19] in 9.04 is it possible to swap out monitors without having to manually exit the xfree.conf file? [20:19] this should store alsa mixer settings to system [20:19] Pici: do you use compiz and do you get window borders when you do? [20:19] Pici: with ati drivers [20:19] brassmaster: Yes and yes. [20:19] leichman, xorg.conf isnt used. its all auto [20:19] laclasse, did the alsactl store [20:19] can you give ma some examples-kevin [20:19] deany: it's used if it's there [20:19] hareldvd, and on reboot,mizer settings are still not restored and still muted ? [20:20] Pici: interesting. do you have any special options in your xorg.conf or is it the standard automatic settings? [20:20] hbekel, of course.. but its empty a lot of the time. [20:20] s/mizer/mixer/g [20:20] hello [20:20] rob0917: xvid/mpeg4 is populer, or mpeg4/avc (h.264) for even lower bandwidth usage.. [20:20] brassmaster: even i use compiz, but not emerald themes.. [20:20] laclasse, So it seems. I guess I'll have to reboot to see if it got better. [20:20] brassmaster: Just the automatic settings. Make sure that you don't have xorg-driver-flgrx installed. [20:21] pici: is there a way to install java-jre package offline having the bin package too....... ? [20:21] thank you [20:21] I am stuck at 800x600, so I was suggested to add the line Driver "openchrome" to xorg.conf. but it's still the same [20:21] deany: i thought so...but when i swap monitors from a crt to an lcd i get input not supported on the lcd [20:21] noob: If you knew what was going on, you would realize that emerald is a more flexible window decorator than the default. It's not old and busted, it's the new hotness. [20:21] no luck with the reboot, still no panels ( [20:22] PIci... need help with installing ubuntu on an external drive for a different machine... which is best? [20:22] pici: is there a way to install java-jre package offline having the bin package too....... ? [20:22] hbekel & matreya6, care to lend a hand, cause I'm pretty sure all the ports are forwarded properly [20:22] brassmaster: i have used emerald... anyway ur choice === christiekoehler is now known as christiekoehler| [20:22] Pici: is there a way to install java-jre package offline having the bin package too....... ? [20:22] Vesta, see pm [20:23] Hi all, I'm running ubuntu 8.10... I heard that there will be no more functionality updates at this point but only updates for important stuff such as security. I've noticed that the backports repo regularly get updated with new gimp, new KDE4 stuff, new etc.... Is it theoretically less safe to enable and install stuff from this repo ? do things often break in your experience ? thanks [20:23] noob: perhaps you're thinking of beryl? [20:23] hareldvd, what sound chip btw? [20:24] Hi, I upgraded to 9.04 from 8.04 lastnight and I cant set any resolution higher than 1024x768. When I was using 8.04 I used a program called "displayconfig-gtk" that let me force a larger resolution, but that program is no longer in 9.04.Does anyone know any other program, or any other way to force a larger resolution? [20:24] hbekel & matreya6, care to lend a hand, cause I'm pretty sure all the ports are forwarded properly [20:24] how to find the kernel version used by me from terminal? [20:24] ksbalaji, uname -r [20:24] Pici: did you remove flgrx *before* upgrading to jaunty? [20:24] hi guys, ive recently installed ubuntu 9.04 on a g3 dl360 server with a i5 raid card ... 2 x 72 u320 scsi disks ... and im noticing a very high iowait times doing simple tasks, the system seems very sluggish and impossible to multitask .... ive read around this may have something to do with the latest kernel running at the moment? any recommendations on understanding a very high iowait time? [20:25] Why my nl -s *from* *to* says, that some file exitits? [20:25] laclasse, 00:1b.0 Audio device: Intel Corporation 82801FB/FBM/FR/FW/FRW [20:25] guntbert: I think you're talking to me, and yes, i did. [20:25] And won't do the job [20:25] !foobar > me [20:25] Sorry, I don't know anything about foobar [20:25] happosade: ln -s destination source [20:25] hey, can someone help me remove this drive http://img54.imageshack.us/img54/8283/screenshotm.png [20:25] *sorry. I used it ln. Just typoing. [20:25] happosade: makes more sense if you realize source is optional [20:26] hareldvd, snd_hda then ? [20:26] Can anyone tell me how to make XChat (really XChat-GNOME) remember my registered nickname's password... [20:26] is there anything in linux that will do the same thing as directx? [20:26] ...so that I don't have to /msg nickserv identify every time? [20:26] laclasse, That's what I remember. [20:26] rob0917: that's easy, opengl [20:26] evanmurphy edit the channel preference [20:26] GodfatherofEire: nc -l -p and check from the outside with sth like http://www.yougetsignal.com/tools/open-ports/ [20:26] ty-kevin === hubuntu is now known as huayra [20:27] rob0917: Probably more along the lines of SDL if you want an all encompassing graphics and audio solution [20:27] anodesni, ah! thanks now, is 2.6.24-24-generic faulty? it is slow to open apps. The display is slow, sound is not continuous? help? [20:27] evanrmurphy, Xchat -> network list -> edit server / channel, one before last entry: server password [20:27] rob0917: also, sdl, for some of the less-common input type stuff [20:27] Daniel591992, sudo rm -rf "/media/My Book", but be careful with that since it removes everything in the folder! [20:27] is there any console (mc like preferably) rsync client? [20:27] Pici: i got logged out did u say anything? [20:27] exit [20:27] ksbalaji, maybe a driver problem [20:27] brassmaster: no, I was intentionally asking Pici (I haven't upgraded yet), but your answer tells me that it should be done this way, thx [20:27] rob0917: both of those work on windows too btw [20:28] hbekel, odd, I've forwarded both the ports but their externally registering as closed [20:28] guntbert: I see. sorry about that. [20:28] hi, has anybody managed to get 1024x600 frame buffer console on a netbook? [20:28] ksbalaji, what are your hardware specs [20:28] anodesni, driver not going smooth with kernel? sometimes a kernel update gives this. [20:28] brassmaster: np :-) [20:28] GodfatherofEire: you need some program to listen to those ports on your machine, of course [20:28] hbekel, there are [20:28] guntbert: out of curiosity, what card are you using? [20:28] @anodesni, worked like a charm. Thanks! [20:28] hi guys, ive recently installed ubuntu 9.04 on a g3 dl360 server with a i5 raid card ... 2 x 72 u320 scsi disks ... and im noticing a very high iowait times doing simple tasks, the system seems very sluggish and impossible to multitask .... ive read around this may have something to do with kernels post 2.6.18++ ... should i downgrade my kernel? any recommendations on why this machine is bogged down with high iowait? [20:28] kevin,how doi get opengl? [20:28] anodesni, how to get hw specs for you? [20:29] GodfatherofEire: then they're not forwarded correctly [20:29] hareldvd, have a look there, it is quite complete: http://www.ubuntugeek.com/sound-solutions-for-ubuntu-904-jaunty-users.html [20:29] GodfatherofEire: maybe they're blocked by the firewall of your box as well? === christiekoehler| is now known as christiekoehler [20:29] ksbalaji, don't you know them? Your processor and ram for example? [20:29] Hi. I'd like to install postgresql 7.x on a Hardy machine; please can anyone advise how to find which 7.x releases are available for me to apt-get? [20:29] Hallo, I had to mount an FS on /tmp, what arguments do I put to chmod for it? [20:29] rescue doesn't see my disks, yet I can still boot; does the 8.10 alt CD offer an 'upgrade' option? [20:29] I'll try again, but I've forwarded ports before, but this is the first time I've run into a problem [20:30] hbekel, I've gone so far as to shut off all the firewalls, and still no luck [20:30] laclasse, is Xchat one of the main menus in XChat proper? maybe I should try that instead of XChat-GNOME, what do you think? [20:30] brassmaster: ati x1300 in a lenovo t60, and until now I'm using fglrx (mainly because of the ability to reduce the GPU frequency with aticonfig) [20:30] anodesni, mine is intel dual core 2.8 cpu, 1GB ram. [20:30] evanrmurphy, i think YES ;) [20:30] rob0917: if you want to develop for it, which i'm assuming, you really should look on the opengl web site. then install the libraries you will need from aptitude or synaptic. install the -dev packages btw [20:30] ksbalaji, that is more than enough [20:30] Xchat-GNOME is only younger, buggier and with less functionality, isn't it ? [20:30] guntbert: ah, okay. [20:30] guntbert: how are u using fglrx? [20:31] rob0917: if your not developing for it, it will be installed automatically when you install something that needs it [20:31] laclasse: I'll try that. Thank you! [20:31] anodesni, but after the kernel update, I find my display and sound slow. [20:31] evanrmurphy, np [20:31] ksbalaji, try to start "top" in terminal and see if a program uses much CPU time [20:31] I dont see any point in xchat-gnome myself. [20:31] rob0917: If you're looking to learn how to develop for it, you might try a site like this one: http://nehe.gamedev.net/ [20:31] is there an ubuntu repo available with pidgin precompiled with the encryption plugins? [20:31] you've been a big help-thanks [20:31] ksbalaji, you could consider booting from the last kernel [20:31] anodesni, let me try. [20:31] noob: I'm still on hardy, so it was with "hardware drivers" [20:31] pronoy: Thanks, I'm going to try installing XChat instead of XChat-GNOME. [20:31] didn't previous installers recognize an existing ubuntu and offer to upgrade instead? [20:31] rob0917: np [20:32] Hmm can anyone walk me through creating a ssl x11vnc connection between windows and ubuntu? [20:32] evanrmurphy: that's what I did.. haha [20:32] guntbert: hardy ati was awesome... jaunty + ati horrible! [20:32] anodesni, too much info for me to digest. [20:32] evanmurphy: good luck with that [20:32] Crash1hd: which way? [20:32] pronoy: it isnt that hard really. [20:32] Dracofodder, apt-get install pidgin-encryption ? [20:32] noob: the latest shiny ALWAYS breaks amd's proprietary video drivers [20:32] brassmaster: connecting to ubuntu from windows [20:32] Dracofodder, why pre-compiled? [20:32] noob: thats why I'm still on hardy :-) [20:32] im in the process of resolving a very painful experience with 8.10 and dont want to repeat so what is the most stable/bug free version of ubuntu currently? [20:33] Crash1hd, install NX / no machine [20:33] much faster [20:33] Ciros: hard.. ? [20:33] and default to SSL [20:33] anodesni, I see four color charts in four rows with many columns. [20:33] ksbalaji, just look under %CPU at the first process and see how much cpu it uses and what process it is under COMMAND [20:33] Kevin`: a lesson learnt!!! [20:33] grkblood13: seems like 8.04 [20:33] Crash1hd: do you really need full desktop access or just access to graphical programs? [20:33] pronoy: to install actual xchat, not the gnome xchat [20:33] deany: I pulled the source, and it isn't recognizing where pidgin is located. [20:33] Crash1hd, free edition / dll here: http://www.nomachine.com/ [20:33] ok, so dont use 9 then [20:33] deany: when I try to compile it [20:33] jaunty has the latest... why compile [20:34] noob: if you don't need 3d, seriously consider using ati/radeonhd instead of fglrx. it doesn't break ;p [20:34] brassmaster: would like full desktop but what where you thinking re just graphical prog? [20:34] and when jaunty doesnt, getdeb.net has [20:34] noob: also supports 3d for some older cards [20:34] Ciros: oh...i just wished him luck out of good will :) didn't mean it was hard...its easy.....lol [20:34] I use two displays with different sizes. How do I set a wallpaper to show up on both? [20:34] GodfatherofEire: no idea then, sorry [20:34] Can I set a wallpaper for each screen? [20:34] pronoy: LOL aassh I misunderstood :P hehe [20:34] you want radeon or radeonhd instead of fglrx for a growing range of cards if you're using xserver 1.6 (the one in jaunty) === Matt1360` is now known as Matt1360`Oot [20:34] Crash1hd: Graphical access to linux machines is most intuitive when you tunnel an X connection over ssh imho. [20:35] Kevin`: i want 3d... :( will try to wait it out... or if it bugs me too much then back to hardy! [20:35] GodfatherofEire: have you tried using port numbers different from amule's defaults? [20:35] Ciros: Glad to know I'm not the first! :D [20:35] I use two displays with different sizes. How do I set a wallpaper to show up on both? [20:35] Can I set a wallpaper for each screen? [20:35] where can I get a list of md5sums for the install isos [20:35] hbekel, tried, with little success [20:35] I found if I upgraded 8.10 to 9.04 and I had fglrx already installed, and didnt remove it, the upgrade worked fine, as long as I didnt remove pkgs o.O [20:35] brassmaster: ahh how would I do that? [20:35] still low-ID [20:35] ksbalaji, I recommend to just use the previous kernel. Reboot and choose from the grub boot menu the previous kernel version. [20:35] Kevin`, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuHashes [20:36] deany: .. well well , is that typical on ubuntu? If you can't see it in add/remove programs, or synaptic, you should go command line one the likely package? [20:36] Hi, how can I set up 1024x600 resolution for fb console? [20:36] deany: ty [20:36] hbekel, do you use it/if so what ports? [20:36] deany: that was exactly what I needed.. nic easy way to add encryption plugins... Thanks! [20:36] liquidplay, i tend to remeber that fb console will only do 4:3 ratio resolutions [20:37] could be mistaken tho [20:37] can any one help me install ubuntu on an external drive meant for another netbook? [20:37] Dracofodder, if its in the repo, its viewable in synaptic. "Provides transparent encryption to all protocols supported by Pidgin" [20:37] GodfatherofEire: been a long while since i used it, but as far as i remember i just used the default ports, setup nat for them in my router and opened them in my local firewall [20:37] noob: . [20:37] hbekel, is it possible that ubuntu might be blocking it? [20:37] Crash1hd: type ssh -X , any X proggy you start then (i.e xeyes) uses your local X server [20:37] Kevin`: ? [20:38] noob: yes [20:38] anodesni, yeah this seems a better solution. But since you told about top - can I upload a sreenshot for a suggestion from you please? [20:38] laclasse: well with 915 resolution it was doing 12800x800 but on a netbook I need 1024x600 and Ićve read that that package is deprecated in 9.04 [20:38] guntbert: but I am running windows on the client [20:38] ksbalaji, sure [20:38] is there onscreen keybored cu s you see my keyboerd is fed [20:38] deany: ok, so I wasn't looking the right way. thought sure I did a search on pidgin and didn't see it. will go look again, so I know for sure. [20:38] GodfatherofEire, iptables -F will gewt rid of all local fw rules [20:38] Crash1hd: Something like this: http://www.tjansson.dk/?p=163 [20:38] GodfatherofEire: no idea if ubuntu has a default fw, check with iptables -L [20:38] Kevin`: oh... ok... i tried installing it by connecting it via usb but when connected it says missing OS! [20:38] ksbalaji, although I haven't got much time, I have to go in a couple of minutes [20:39] noob: did the install complete? [20:39] how to install a newer kernel in Jaunty? is there a PPA? [20:39] Dracofodder, its there, i just looked :) [20:39] anodesni, np. thanks some other time then. [20:39] liquidplay, it is, 915resolution was in fact adding resolutions in Bios behind the scene so they could be requested by the X server [20:39] Crash1hd: then you use putty for ssh (switch X tunneling on) and install cygwin/X as X server on windows [20:39] how do i enable ctrl-alt-backspace for christ's sake [20:39] why in the hell would this be disabled by default [20:39] so stupid [20:39] liquidplay, now that functionality is included in the 'intel' driver [20:39] sudo apt-get install dontzap [20:39] !dontzap | quaal [20:39] quaal: 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. [20:39] Crash1hd: That will tell you how to get an x server for windows. Then you do what guntbert said and use Putty or another ssh client to connect to your ubuntu machine. When you run graphical programs, the window will open on your windows machine. [20:39] deany, did that [20:39] quaal: complain upstream [20:39] run it? [20:39] sudo dontzap [20:40] noob: simple question :) [20:40] Kevin`: i installed using live cd in my laptop, install had no problems... but since the drive had virues i had wiped it fully [20:40] diskin: there are debs here. http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/ [20:40] b /win 3 [20:40] as ubottu said [20:40] laclasse: thanks, I'll search docs on that one [20:40] brassmaster: guntbert cool thanks :) [20:40] erUSUL, did that too [20:40] Kevin`: a bit slow typing! :( [20:40] is there a tool to start multiple programs and lay them out in a specific way? [20:40] noob: so it's installed right now? boot from the cd then, and i'll help you fix the booting [20:40] sudo dontzap --disable [20:40] still cant ctrl-alt-backspace [20:40] forgot :) [20:40] deany: yea, me too. . dunno what the heck I was looking at before... thanks again though! [20:40] hello every on [20:40] have to restart ? [20:41] quaal: if that does what I think it does you'll also have to restart the server (log out and back in) [20:41] Kevin`: from the other notebook? [20:41] Crash1hd: glad to help - I use that scenario dayly [20:41] or logout/login [20:41] noodlesgc, thanks! which are recommended? 2.6.29.2? and how to install? download all and dpkg -i? [20:41] noob: from anything [20:41] guntbert: cool its different [20:41] Or you can install dontzap [20:41] is there onscreen keybored cu s you see my keyboerd is fed [20:41] Kevin`: let me tell u the problem fully... [20:42] my dvd rom drive will not mount. it shows up in the tree, but nothing will open it [20:42] Lenin_Cat, there is a on-screen keyboard, yes, try SCIM [20:42] i dont get why they disabled ctrl-alt-backspace, made a package to enable/disable, then gave us a Alt+SysRq+K anyways [20:42] deany: alt-sysrq-k has always existed [20:42] i want to use one command or keystroke to start up a number of apps, organize them on my screen, and possibly run commands within them (start a shell and cd to somewhere, for example). is this possible? [20:42] noob: if you have linux installed already on something, just stick the drive into that [20:43] were would I find this [20:43] diskin: none are "recommended" I use rc4 of .30. To install them, get both the *_all packages, and the other two depending on your architechture. [20:43] * deany hides in the noob corner [20:43] Kevin`: the notebook only has usb port, but the usb port doesnt allow booting, so i removed the hard drive and connected it to my UBUNTU laptop and installed it from live cd.. [20:43] Lenin_Cat, there is also uim, which stands for Universal Input Manager (check it out in synaptic) [20:43] deany, you could enable / disable this in the past in xorg.conf, but upstream now wants 'autodetection' and minimal xorg.conf. Henze dontzap rather than blocking the signal in xorg.conf [20:43] what do i need to edit in order to be able to see stuff on my data dvds? [20:43] s/hence/ [20:43] I can't do a decent apt-get update on my gutsy box are the repo's removed? [20:44] Kevin`: now i'm using ubuntu... just a min connecting the drive... [20:44] noob: can we take this to pm? i want to be able to get the output of commands [20:44] deany: ctrl+alt+backspace was disabled by the xorg devs, not ubuntu. ubuntu provides "dontzap" which does nothing but add a single line to xorg.conf [20:44] without pastebin every time [20:44] noodlesgc, I see.. in general, I do not need linux-source, unless I had linux-source of my current kernel, right? and, how will updates work after that, will I be able to use Jaunty repos like before? [20:45] Any way to perform file transfers over a computer-to-computer usb connection? [20:45] Are the gutsy repos removed for some reason? [20:45] Is there a way to get x11vnc to notify you visually when someone connects? [20:46] Lenin_Cat, try this: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=292611 [20:46] !gutsy | SpaT [20:46] SpaT: Ubuntu 7.10 (Gutsy Gibbon) was the seventh release of Ubuntu. End Of Life: April 18th, 2009. See !eol and !upgrade for more details. [20:46] Crash1hd, vinagre does it [20:46] diskin: I am unsure if source is required, but I always install it anyway. Your updates should not be affected. When you see the grub boot, you can press esc and choose the older kernel. [20:47] anybody? starting a number of programs and positioning them? [20:47] guntbert: I see, i really hate the guy that put our servers on a non long term support version [20:47] deany: yes but I have to use x11vnc cause vinagre and others have a bug in them right now with compiz fusion installed on 9.04 [20:47] diskin: you need linux-source if you want to compile third-party modules against the kernel you're running [20:47] fusion-icon quick disable compiz... [20:47] Lenin_Cat, actually, this link is much better: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Accessibility [20:47] noodlesgc, thanks for the help, appreciate it! I'm affected by the bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/346691 - that's why I need a new kernel. I had several days of nightmare with a new laptop and 9.04 - did not expect such thing at all [20:48] hi [20:48] SpaT: understandable :-( [20:48] hbekel, yes, got it. I used kernel-source in Hardy, but Jaunty recognized all hardware fine (althoug it doesn't work) :) [20:48] hi i have a small problem with my network... i have to keep doing: sudo ifconfig eth1 192.168.0.1; [20:48] deany: also vinagre is vnc client I need the server part === max is now known as Guest33526 [20:49] how can i create an iso image from a a cd [20:49] what do i need to edit in order to be able to see stuff on my data dvds? [20:49] suddenly i lose the ip for eth1 [20:49] vino i meant [20:49] does anyone have any idea why this is happening [20:49] I was going to return the laptop... But found the bug in launchpad finally. A shame... [20:49] disable compiz with fusion-icon, works [20:49] enable when done [20:49] roy_hobbs: It would probably be easier to use Ethernet if you can. [20:49] could someone help me get ubuntu 9.04 running after the installation as it shows only black screen? [20:49] diskin: if you compile a custom kernel, you'll have to compile a custom nvidia driver, too (for example) [20:49] brassmaster: easier, but slower =) [20:49] deadman, what version of buntu, and are yoiu using network-manager [20:50] enable when done ~ [20:50] im using 8.04 [20:50] fully updated === Guest33526 is now known as cads [20:50] roy_hobbs: True. Ubuntu supports usb networking and autoconfigures it [20:50] deany: right but x11vnc works without having to disable anything (just doesnt have any way of notifing you if someone is logged in) [20:50] no im not using network manager [20:50] vino does. use it [20:50] guntbert: Ah well at least i have a good reason to convince my IT director that we really need to update. (I like things up to date dispite the more work to keep things in order) [20:50] deadman, try installing wicd, i use it on every machine, works very nice. i'll bet 20 cents it will fix your problem [20:50] upgrade that is [20:51] i followed https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Internet/ConnectionSharing?action=show&redirect=InternetConnectionSharing to setup my network [20:51] roy_hobbs: But you would need a special usb cable with host plugs on both ends and no power leads i believe [20:51] its not like you are doin a LOT by disabling it.. its click, click. Im just offering a workaround [20:51] Question: Does grub use windows boot.ini to log or is boot.ini obselete with grub ? [20:51] lol [20:51] kj4, what is wicd, and how should i use it... [20:51] deadman, ok, sorry i don't know about configuring internet connection sharing [20:51] im pretty stupid when it comes to networking [20:51] how can i change to another user using terminal? [20:51] deadman, it is a replacement for network manager that works better [20:52] deany: true but cant do the click click remotly as I cant see it to do it which means having to go down into the basement lol to do that === sale_ is now known as sale [20:52] !sudo | luis_ [20:52] What's with Ubuntu creating a /home/Templates folder for me? What use is it? [20:52] luis_: 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) [20:52] Crash1hd, ahh [20:52] guntbert: not root... another user :P [20:52] hmmm my actual problem is that i lose the ip settings of the network card... when i restart my client system in this case an xbox360 [20:52] luis_: sorry, that was the worng one, I wanted to tell you about su [20:52] deany: mind you I really dont need to see if someone is logged in I guess what I need to be able to see is if someone has logged in through a log? [20:52] *wrong [20:52] Hi, I upgraded to 9.04 from 8.04 lastnight and I cant set any resolution higher than 1024x768. When I was using 8.04 I used a program called "displayconfig-gtk" that let me force a larger resolution, but that program is no longer in 9.04.Does anyone know any other program, or any other way to force a larger resolution? [20:53] deany: as I wont be downstairs to see it anyhow [20:53] Makuseru: what video card? [20:53] luis_: type su - , you exit with d [20:53] guntbert: thanks [20:53] mphill: ATI Radeon 9200. [20:53] kj4, any idea why im losing my ip settings? [20:54] Oh my, completely forgot about the time. I need to get some grub...

Try to research installing the proprietary driver, then use teh ATI control panel to set the resolution. [20:55] Hello. I'd like to install postgresql 7.x on a Hardy machine; please can anyone tell me how to find out which 7.x releases are available for me to apt-get? [20:55] thanks brassmaster [20:55] mphill: My card is too old to use that. [20:55] roy_hobbs: wherever you buy it from, make sure it has a bridge chip in the middle of the cable [20:56] roy_hobbs: otherwise you'll fry your ports. [20:56] i've written a script to turn off the monitor and binded it with a multimedia key. if i press the button once, it prompts for a password, but if i don't enter it and press it again it turns off the screen === christiekoehler is now known as christiekoehler| [20:56] this is actually great, it's exactly what i want it to do (no password prompting) but it looks like a security flaw :/ [20:56] How can I enable multiverse for a single package? I'm having trouble finding documentation for that.. Thanks in advance! [20:56] hbekel, noodlesgc - installed, rebooting now. wish me luck! :). thanks guys. [20:56] hello guys. question - why the update manager does not show anymore in the "system tray" like area? (jaunty up to date here) [20:56] nexus10, try apt-cache search postgress [20:56] diskin: good luck :) [20:57] Good Afternoon All. Have a question regarding syslog-ng and not logging from a router. [20:57] roy_hobbs: both computers should assign themselves private addresses. You may need to assign static ones in order to make them see each other. I'm not sure. Once you've done that, you should just be able scp files [20:57] tcpdump shows traffic between the two. [20:57] matreya6: thanks -- that shows me the latest (8.x) postgresql only [20:57] Followed instructions at http://www.quietearth.us/articles/2006/09/27/Logging-remote-host-to-specific-logfile-with-syslogng [20:58] Has to be something with my /etc/syslog-ng/syslog-ng.conf but can't find anything wrong. [20:58] nexus10, try synaptic instead then, that should also show you lower versions [20:58] !enter | trirnoth [20:58] trirnoth: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation! [20:58] Dracofodder, did you try fusion-icon --no-start [20:58] matreya6: ok, thanks -- I'll try it. [20:58] while connected via ssh -X [20:58] Will do. [20:59] Dracofodder, *might* be able to disable compiz if it gets forwarded to your machine properly. [20:59] guys please answer - why the update manager does not show anymore in the "system tray" like area? (jaunty up to date here) or something wrong with my installation? [21:00] I know this is going to sound dumb but is ssh safe to have running? [21:00] Crash1hd: the daemon? [21:00] brassmaster: yeah I think if thats the word for server [21:00] Crash1hd: as long as you keep it patched and either use very strong passwords or shared keys [21:01] Crash1hd: If it's really critical, probably want shared keys or shared keys + password [21:01] brassmaster: hmm might want to look into shared keys can you have both a strong pass and shared keys? [21:01] brassmaster: lol :) [21:01] RaverWild: why dont you run update-manager at the terminal and check if your jaunty is up to date. [21:01] brassmaster: Is there a way of making it so that ssh only works inside my local network? [21:01] Crash1hd: or use /etc/hosts.allow if only coming from a single/ few IPs ? [21:02] #ubuntu-de [21:02] Hi... how can I use Inkscape on a 1024x600 screen? [21:02] trirnoth: thanks :) [21:02] RaverWild : run sudo adept_updater in a console window to show the update manager [21:02] Crash1hd: what trirnoth said. [21:02] i think it only shows itself in tray if there is something to update available [21:02] Which SSH should I install openssh-server? === john is now known as Guest45715 [21:02] Crash1hd: yes [21:02] Hello I need help getting my internet working on a new upgrade 8.10!

[21:05] RaverWild, ah sorry, it's probably something else on ubuntu then, i'm using kubuntu [21:05] Hello, I'm somewhat familiar with Ubuntu. I'm trying to dual boot Jaunty and my Windows Vista, however, when I go to GParted on the liveCD and try to partition my HD, it always fails. I've also tried to partition it with easus partition editor. If I go straight to install will be able to partition it properly you think? [21:06] betterhalfone, probably better to ask about a problem your having. (if ya having one...) [21:06] trirnoth, ah now i see in the release note your example. going to try it. thanks [21:06] nkei0: have you tried running chkdsk first? [21:06] nkei0, I believe you must partition or shrink your Vista from within Vista's tools [21:06] syslog-ng Anyone ? [21:07] nkei0: any method you use to make the space available will work. ideally you would just use the proper size when you install vista, but too late for that :) [21:07] nkei0: let me guess, a 1mb partition at the start? [21:07] RaverWild: NP. Looked for this myself a few weeks ago. [21:07] nkei0, http://apcmag.com/how_to_dualboot_vista_with_linux_vista_installed_first.htm [21:07] No problem just thinking about installing Ubuntu Jaunty or Kubuntu Jaunty? The Kubuntu ran super laggy on my Eeepc so I'm curious if the CLF2 is going to have the same reaction. [21:07] mrwes: I've tried to shrink it, but it will only let me shrink it by 7GB which is probably enough, but I want to partition it from 1 180 HD to 80 for vista and 50 for ubuntu and another 50 for Data [21:08] guys where can I download previous version of ubuntu? [21:08] I want the 8.10 version [21:08] nkei0: you should be able to set your size of the ubuntu partition on the live cd [21:08] anyone has the link? [21:08] nkei0: How much free space do you have [21:08] brassmaster: 130GB [21:08] rodolfo_, hold on [21:08] trirnoth, i have another problem - still get "hash sum mismatch" when trying to install some packages. i tried with mysql installation. when downloaded - one of the packages threw this :( this was on intrepid too. any ideas?

When i open it again though its back on no visual effects. Any ideas? trying to get gnome-do-docky working. Thanks in advance for the help! [21:17] mick_: Ubuntu [21:17] Soren_: u want to dual boot and currently u have Ubuntu across your entire disk? [21:18] Hmm, have only used a virtual windows machine to mount img files [21:18] matssudin: Does it act as though the effects registered in the first place? [21:18] yes, from what I was reading it is quicker to install XP first and then Ubuntu [21:18] evanrmurphy yah [21:18] dayo ^^^ [21:18] Soren_: yes it is [21:18] thiebaude, r you still there?:D [21:18] Anyone able to help me with Ubuntu Server WPA issue? [21:18] its better [21:18] I just tried loading up another sata drive and I get the same error [21:18] Soren_: well, u could always try resizing, but yes i would just reinstall, as well [21:18] yup i'am here, uncut [21:19] Okay next ? No sound on Abit AN8 Fatality SLI motherboard. Nvidia CK804 chipset. Tried new sound card, usb sound device, and installed Hardy and Intrepid. Any ideas? [21:19] matssudin: When you switch to normal, does it give you an error message? [21:19] thiebaude :nice :D here we go: ive got ubuntu 9.10, everything is alright. i installed AWN dock, and compiz-manager do have some desktop effects. but now, everytime i start a 3d programm (like the screensaver options or a game with playonlinux) everything crashes [21:19] matssudin: maybe your graphics card cant take compizs effects, [21:19] brassmaster , no looks to turn on ok [21:19] Whenever I try to convert a get an error. Gimme a sec to copy and paste into pastebin or something... [21:19] dayo, so what I want is all of my Ubuntu to be the same as it is now, so what do I burn toa CD [21:19] nmvictor worked fine in 8.04 and 8.10 [21:19] uncut: what video card do you have? [21:20] ... [21:20] thiebaude :radion hd 4870, installed latest drivers from ati.com [21:20] matssudin: what video card do you have? [21:20] cd #gnome [21:20] sorry [21:20] the "Extra setting" breaks it tho "normal" is fine untill i close window [21:20] dayo, do you want to help me try resizing? IDK very much at all [21:20] matssudin: Hmmm... Lot's of people have been having issues with the desktop effects in Jaunty. I think the most prevalent issue was the blacklisting of Intel graphics cards for Compiz. Finally some update was sent out about a week ago that allowed me to get them working. But if I remember correctly, it was always very clear that the desktop effects were not enabled (a message would say something like, "could not enable de [21:20] sktop effects") [21:20] uncut: im not sure why it would crash, wish i could help on that one:D [21:20] thiebaude: but the ubuntu driver installed themselves at startup [21:20] brassmaster toshiba a70 ati9000 mobile i think [21:20] Soren_: 1. Backup your home directory 2. Insert your XP CD and format everything, then create a partition for XP and install XP. 3. Install Ubuntu on the free space (make /home a separate partition) 4. copy your backed up home directory to your new ubuntu install's home directory. [21:20] thiebaude: is there a problem? [21:20] Soren_: i've never tried to resize [21:21] Could someone explain to me the difference between the nickname and the username in IRC? [21:21] matssudin: do you use fglrx [21:21] brasmaster no fglrx broke stuff [21:21] evanrmurphy: i wasn't aware there was a difference :| [21:21] had to boot into recover and apt-get remove it [21:21] dayo, wanna try? [21:21] Soren_: ok, but please backup your home dir first. in case we mess up [21:21] I get this error whenever I try to mount a .img: http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/d5c1ed1a7 [21:21] Anyone know how to fix? [21:22] uncut: i dont have compiz, i wouldn't know where to begin [21:22] dayo, cool, can you tell me how? [21:22] thirnoth thank you so much [21:22] thiebaude : ok, thank you very much :)) [21:22] EoL{s}, what was your command? [21:22] oncut: if your running 9.10 it an Alpa release and very buggy. are you sure about the release number [21:22] yw, uncut [21:22] dayo, I have k3b [21:22] hope you get it solved [21:22] chuck_ how do i check correctly? [21:22] Soren_: what's k3b? [21:23] !k3b [21:23] k3b is a feature-rich and user-friendly burning application for KDE (and, as all KDE applications, works fine on GNOME).

When i open it again though its back on no visual effects. Any ideas? trying to get gnome-do-docky working. Thanks in advance for the help! [21:23] a CD/DVD burning program [21:23] UncleD, dpkg -i package.deb [21:23] bbl [21:23] brassmaster: It is a converted file from .DMG. [21:23] EoL{s}: I guess before i send you there, i should ask what kind of image you're trying to mount [21:23] EoL{s}: Okay [21:23] Soren_: wow, kde. i don't use that at all. but we first we need to find out how much space we need. open a new terminal and type: du -ah . [21:24] jdu: Just a second... [21:24] i got what i've been looking for,i just wanna let you guys into this cool network monitor for the terminal, slmon,You can use the synaptic.Its so cool,but if you have other better suggestion,it'll be appreciated. [21:24] dayo, it should be very small, but ok, brb [21:24] dayo: It does seem a bit fuzzy. But in the XChat Network List, you can set your nickname and your username, and they don't have to agree. My nick is evanrmurphy, but my username is something else. [21:24] Soren_: that should give u the total space used by your home directory [21:25] is there a compiz channel? [21:25] dayo: Only my nickname seems to matter in the channel, so I'm trying to figure out what the username is for. [21:25] any hot chicks here wanna go private? I can tell you about ubuntu all night long... [21:25] lol [21:25] evanrmurphy: i see. i guess the username is the one u register? and the nick is the one u can change on the fly?

[21:25] sudo mount -t hfsplus -o loop iphone_sdk.img /mnt [21:25] just change ext4 to jfs? [21:26] Soren_: ok, one blank DVD should do. it can take 4.2GB [21:26] dayo: That would seem logical! But I think for me, evanrmurphy is the registered one, and I'm having no problem getting through NickServ. [21:26] Hello [21:26] brassmaster: ^ [21:26] Damn why has no one had this issue :( [21:26] hi all; Ubuntu start with sound muted; how to fix? [21:26] EoL{s}, perhaps try just hfs, not hfsplus ? [21:26] secret [21:26] evanrmurphy: personally i recommend irssi for IRC [21:26] EoL{s}: do you have hfsplus installed? [21:26] Can anybody else shed light on nickname vs. username for IRC? [21:26] dayo: Is that another client? [21:26] evanrmurphy: join #freenode for irc questions [21:26] brassmaster: Just a sec... [21:26] dayo, I think this is just a CD burner, but I do have both blank CD's and DVDs [21:27] evanrmurphy: yeah, it's a terminal based IRC client [21:27] EoL{s}: if you didn't install it, you don't have it. it's not a default option [21:27] ikonia: Thanks, I'll do that! [21:27] dayo: Maybe I'll check that out, thanks. [21:27] Soren_: wow, if it's just CD burnin, then u've got a lot of CDs to burn [21:27] ciao [21:27] lol [21:27] evanrmurphy: u're welcome. u should also check #irssi channel for help on irssi [21:28] dayo, is there an easy way to check? I know how in Win, but not in Ubuntu [21:28] EoL{s}: The package you need is hfsplus. Give that a shot. [21:28] [21:28] brassmaster: Ok, thanks. [21:28] Soren_: try: sudo lshw then look thru the output for the description of your optical drive. that's how i would do it [21:29] hi, does someone know why a display may look "folded over itself"? since I installed jaunty I see everything double, hardly usable... [21:29] matreya6: since I'm at an ssh prompt I could't use synaptic, so I tried aptitude instead -- but still I can only find pgsql 8.x. How would I find a 7.x version for use with Hardy? [21:29] hi, i'm trying to boot 9.04 x86_64 from usbstick. mounted the usbstick, copied the cd in, renamed isolinux dir and isolinux.cfg to syslinux/.cfg ran syslinux against the stick, it boots but drops to shell in what appears to be the initrd or initramfs. did i miss anything? [21:29] you should stop drinking abep [21:29] haha [21:29] Soren_: actually pipe the output: sudo lshw > SorensHardware.txt [21:29] brassmaster: Do I need to restart? [21:30] oh, also copied the dists/jounty?? to stable and unstable as those were linked to it and fat doesn't support it [21:30] Soren_: then open SorensHardware.txt with gedit or vim [21:30] EoL{s}: probably not. [21:30] Hi... how can I use zenity --question? [21:30] syslogd-ng anyone? [21:30] brassmaster: Hmm... still getting the error. [21:30] EoL{s}: did it still not work? [21:30] Trying an if statement in the script but it keeps saying invalid operator [21:30] nexus10, hmm. If you know how in synaptic, are you able to forward X. eg: ssh -Y [21:30] RTFM noobs! [21:30] chazco: zenity --question --test "write text" [21:30] dries_: really not helpful [21:31] chazco: zenity --question --text "write text" [21:31] VCoolio - I need to get the output from zentity... $? contains it but I cant figure out how to test this in a script [21:31] oncut: lsb_release -a [21:32] chazco: you can use print command, it outputs in terminal then [21:32] i've been hoping an update would solve the double screen, but it's not happening. i tried deleting xorg.conf but did not help. also can't find other people with similar problem... [21:32] dayo, capabilities: removable audio cd-r cd-rw dvd [21:32] Soren cries and cries [21:32] But how to test... i want to do something like zenity... if [ $? == 1 ]; then else fi - but it doesnt seem to work [21:32] jdu: connection to this box is dire (some network issue at the far end) so I think ssh-tunnelling X is probably a non-starter. Is there a cmdline tool that will do what synaptic does? [21:32] Just had to tell I'm pleasantly surprised by how much the 64-bit version of Ubuntu increased the performance [21:32] EoL{s}: I think you need a subdirectory in /mnt to mount the image to [21:32] Soren_: looks like it's gonna be a burnfest, man. sorry [21:32] EoL{s}: I don't think you can have /mnt be the mount point [21:33] hello everybody... i've aupgraded to jaunty two days ago and the videos at youtube, cnn, etc do not have sound... can anyone help? [21:33] brassmaster: Ok, I'll give it a shot. [21:33] Soren_: like 5 or 6 CDs, i think. [21:33] 7 discs? can you tell me how to start then I will come back when I am done making coasters [21:33] HI [21:33] how can i take an iso image of ubuntu and add files so that when i install it the files would be on the desktop? [21:33] Intrepid is not letting me install erlang. Can anyone help? I get the error E: Package erlang has no installation candidate [21:34] cjones: youÄ'llave to rebuild an iso [21:34] Yotube-videos were a tad choppy in 32-bit, but works just fine in 64 [21:34] cjones, jigdo [21:34] !remaster | cjones [21:34] cjones: Interested in remastering the Ubuntu !live CD?

[21:34] cecilia: I have the same problem once in a while .... try "sudo killall pulseaudio" then "sudo killall pulseaudio" [21:34] Soren_: well, i could create a folder on your Desktop and then copy about 700MB worth of data at a time into that folder. then use k3b to burn that folder to CD [21:34] ok, trrnoth, i'll try [21:35] second command should have been "sudo alsa force-reload" [21:35] Soren_: that's supposed to say *you* could create a folder... === christiekoehler| is now known as christiekoehler === max is now known as Guest23267 [21:35] dayo, lol, ok, can you tell me how [21:35] nexus10, I would have suggested aptitude. There has to be a way as synaptic is really just a graphical frontend. [21:35] EoL{s}: if you do lsmod | grep "hfsplus", do you get a result? [21:35] Soren_: i've never used k3b. do u have Brasero, by any chance? [21:35] yes [21:36] ok, open Brasero [21:36] trirnoth, it says here that no process was killed [21:36] brassmaster: Yes, I do. [21:36] dayo, it was having issues buring a data disc a bit ago, which is why I went with the other [21:36] Soren_: then click the top right button "Data Project" [21:36] does vmware have a netboot kernel+ramdisk I can use for installing desktop? I can't seem to get a cd to burn cleanly [21:36] erm [21:36] does ubuntu have* [21:36] Soren_: i see. hmm :-( === Zee is now known as SPirate [21:36] thinking and saying different things [21:36] i never had this problem before, but it happened just before the upgrade, with intrepid [21:36] we can try [21:36] Is gnash or swf faster than adobes flash player? [21:36] maybe you have a magic touch [21:37] Soren_: lol ok [21:37] cecilia: "/etc/init.d/pulseaudio start" [21:37] ok [21:37] nexus10, so do: aptitude install package=version [21:37] roffe: yes, but my knowledge on that is out of date [21:37] ok, open, data project [21:37] wow,,, 1588 users thats the maximum amount i seen so far [21:37] it's done [21:37] nexus10, http://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/reference/ch-package.en.html [21:38] cecilia: working ? [21:38] let me see [21:38] so, im getting errors when trying to update my gutsy servers [21:38] how can i update these now that its EOL? [21:38] Soren_: ok the left column, select a few files [21:38] doq:what errors? [21:38] dyao, ok, open, data project [21:38] Kevin`, fair enough. Flash is what irritates me the most on Linux, so perhaps I should try them out. Would anyone else recommend a different flash player? [21:38] failed to fetch packages === damasceno is now known as damasceno[Facul] [21:39] Soren_: then watch the status bar at the bottom left to see the total size of the selected files [21:39] roffe, gnash [21:39] I hate to say that Moonlight works better than flash. [21:39] doing an update shows Ign [21:39] no, it's the same... the video starts with sound for 1 or 2 seconds and then mute... [21:39] Soren_: there's an empty CD in your drive, right? [21:39] roffe, not sure I really recommend it though. [21:39] i installed samba on ubuntu using the command "sudo apt-get install samba smbfs", does it have a gui ? and where can i find it if it does ? [21:39] im thinking my repos are gone [21:39] or something [21:39] doq: 7.10 is now past end-of-life. If you need to continue using it, change the repository names from xx.archive.ubuntu.com to old-releases.ubuntu.com [21:39] jdu, Allright, I'll try it out asap [21:39] roffe: depends on if you just want to see videos or play flash games.. i think the compatibility of alternative players is limited [21:39] thanks genii [21:39] Soren_: u should be able to copy 700+MB [21:40] Armageddon, I don't thing they do. look into smb.conf [21:40] doq: You're welcome [21:40] dayo, where is the home Dir? there is a disc in there now :P [21:40] Soren_: then click 'Add' at the top left in the menu [21:40] hello [21:40] abep_, ok, but I'll try gnash and I assume it's just to switch back if I don't like it [21:40] Jaunty aunty cant boot with usb disk?

[21:41] for example if your username is soren, then u want to backup everything in there [21:41] Hello room, I am trying to use GhostScript to batch process a folder of PDF to Multipage TIF. Is anyone experienced with this application? [21:41] cecilia: assuming this is firefox ..... The wrapper with this had been flaky for me to (not sure what fixed it since I haven't had this problem in a while). But when it was bad I used Opera and never had a problem. Not a fix but something you might want to try. [21:41] anybody used jaunty image with usb ? [21:41] Soren_: check the status bar, how much have u added to the Data project? [21:41] brassmaster: Turns up nothing. [21:41] you mean, try another browser, trirnoth? [21:42] UbuntuNewb: i think that's not a ubuntu question... :) [21:42] my name is Greg, don;t tell anyone, it will me our secret. is there a specific order in which the files should be burned on each disc? by date? alphabetically? etc? [21:42] cecilia: at least to see if the problem is with Firefox or Ubuntu. [21:42] ok [21:42] Soren_: the order doesn't matter [21:42] How tolerant is this channel of drunk people? [21:43] * ValentineX is getting annoy [21:43] i have only konqueror here...let me see [21:43] Soren: I do it by number of characters in a filename. Just my preference.

[21:43] I need help [21:43] rashed2020: you mean everyone isn't drunk ? [21:43] lol, nice. I feel right at home now. [21:44] Does this chan have public logging?

But I'm assuming that's what #ubuntu-offtopic is for, right? [21:45] trirnoth: it's working on Konqueror, perfectly! [21:45] thedarkravin77, you can right click on the panel, and click on "add to panel" then select it, I believe. [21:45] seems like init can't find the partition or something [21:45] Last shot. Anyone interested in a syslog-ng problem before I leave for the day?

I have major lag issues with flash ... when I visit some web pages it get's un browsable and the webbrowser does not respond [21:46] Soren_: well if u select the file at the top, then hold Shift and click a file somewhere near the bottom of the screen, u can see a total size of *currently* selected files. u let go of Shift and then hold Ctrl to add/remove files from your current selection, till u have your 700MB. then u can add those to your project [21:46] Sorry, did earlier. [21:46] Hmm... I uninstalled Adobe's player and installed Gnash, but every video now claims I need to download Adobe's to play them [21:46] ValentineX: what kind of system specs? [21:46] trirnoth: didn't now. [21:46] cecilia: good to hear. now good luck narrowing down the problem with FF. [21:46] Ok now I just sobered up enough to ask a relevant question. [21:46] ValentineX: sounds like the bios loads the bootloader, but the bootloader can't find the files [21:46] rashed2020: you asked about public logging, and *that is* in the /topic [21:46] Gnea: 8.10 was working fine [21:46] Soren_: i mean hold Ctrl and then click a file to add/remove from your selection [21:46] Why do most VPSs offer CentOS over Ubuntu? [21:46] 2.0ghz, 1gb ram [21:47] ok [21:47] thanks a loty! [21:47] roffe, you may need to tell firefox to use gnash instead. or perhaps gnash was not installed correctly. [21:47] rashed2020: that's what i'd like to know, too [21:47] guys i have a problem with the upgrade of my ubuntu 8.10 in 9.04 .... when the session starts, there is a message that tells me i should activate a window manager coz it founds none working at the moment... what should i do to fix this problem?

I'm not going to be that mean.. but this is what happens when you don't use the recommended installation routines.. [23:58] guycook: I would consider reinstalling [23:58] linux_noob: no, 443 is SSL, my pastebin was just an example, but now I don't think SSL works using NameVirtualHost according to docs. check your ssl_access.log for any errors and pastebin them. [23:58] Roasted: it has probably just put a file called.. libflash something in a mozilla plugin folder (there is more than one of those) [23:58] Slart - the overwelming positive responses of the ubuntuforums thread I got that link from seemed like a no-brainer that it was a solution - although, I do agree with you.
