| Decinoge | gcc is sweet ;__; dont talk bad things of it | 00:07 |
| jrib | keith: compiles hello world pretty quick | 00:07 |
| leOn | Decinoge: i know where portugal is .. =P ... was curious about location .. inside portugal | 00:07 |

| Decinoge | sorry \o | 00:08 |
| keith | jrib: I decided to give LFS a whirl, but I am getting bored just waiting for gcc to finish compiling. It really makes you appreciate the simple install process in Ubuntu. | 00:09 |

| jrib | leOn: #ubuntu-server already exists... | 00:10 |
| leOn | ahhh | 00:10 |
| w30 | Monie, I thing you have to have 64 bit drivers but I have two 64 bit machines running Nvidia propriatory 3d and Compiz | 00:10 |
| leOn | that's nice | 00:10 |
| bill102299 | if you don't help me, I'll just buy support this time. open support isn't the best. | 00:10 |

| jrib | bill102299: asterisk is in the repositories. Use APT | 00:11 |
| keith | If I make copies of initrd.img-2.6.28-11-generic and vmlinuz-2.6.28-11-generic and make a new grub entry to point to them, will that work correctly? | 00:11 |
| jrib | bill102299: though frankly, you should work on your attitude | 00:11 |
| funkyHat | bill102299: Just had a look at your question, try this, sudo aptutude install asterisk | 00:12 |
| eseven73 | funkyHat, you spelled aptitude wrong | 00:12 |
| funkyHat | ahaha | 00:12 |

| keith | eseven73: Story of my life. | 00:14 |
| funkyHat | natalie_: which version of Ubuntu, and which graphics card do you have? | 00:14 |
| natalie_ | funkyHat: I am using 8.10 and I have an ATI card with the proprietary driver running | 00:14 |
| Skizoboy | I feel 4u natalie | 00:15 |
| Skizoboy | :( | 00:15 |
| funkyHat | natalie_: that is probably the cause of your problem. I had similar issues. If you can, try out the 9.04 live CD, most ATi cards are much better supported in Jaunty | 00:15 |
| zealiod | does anyone know anything about getting ubuntu on a pendrive using a mac? | 00:15 |
| natalie_ | funkyHat: will I be able to keep my wine settings if I try and install clean? | 00:16 |
| keith | zealiod: Is there a reason you can't boot from a livecd and do it? | 00:16 |
| funkyHat | natalie_: but always best to try it out just to make sure it will actually improve things | 00:16 |
| keith | Will making a copy of the initrd and vmlinuz files and making a new grub entry point to them work correctly? | 00:16 |
| obz | server irc.gigachat.net | 00:16 |
| zealiod | keith: no cd drive on the destination device | 00:16 |
| funkyHat | natalie_: yes, if you back them up first, or if you have your /home on a separate partition you could do a fresh install without wiping /home | 00:16 |
| alybabe356 | hello | 00:16 |
| zealiod | keith: just using my mac to create a usb bootable thingy... | 00:16 |
| Scunizi | funkyHat: ATI has some issues in Jaunty because of the new x.org system.. ATI's new catelist driver supports the newer cards but has left out many of the older cards that work on 8.10 | 00:16 |
| c0ntract0r | My asoundconf list does not show a sound card available, why? | 00:17 |
| funkyHat | Scunizi: that's why I suggested testing the live CD first to see if it will actually help | 00:17 |
| keith | But you can use a mac to boot from a live cd and install to a flash drive, no? | 00:17 |
| javyn | hey. do i need to unmount my usb joypad before i unplug it or something? | 00:17 |
| natalie_ | funkyHat: thank you. I will burn a copy of 9.04 and see how it runs. | 00:17 |
| Scunizi | funkyHat: ah.. missed that part.. | 00:17 |
| jaturawit | q | 00:17 |
| keith | zealiod: But you can use a mac to boot from a live cd and install to a flash drive, no | 00:17 |

| javyn | this is a very serious matter | 00:18 |
| javyn | me first alybabe356 | 00:19 |
| funkyHat | natalie_: all of your Wine stuff (including the programs) is kept in .wine in your home directory, so you can make a tarball of that and put it on a CD, and just extract it again after you've reinstalled and all of your wine apps will be just the same. | 00:19 |
| keith | zealiod: Ubuntu has an option to install to a USB drive and will set it up like a live cd so you can use it to install from. | 00:19 |
| zealiod | i will look at this thanks | 00:19 |
| funkyHat | natalie_: but upgrading will probably work fine, so I'd try that first (after backing up .wine, if it's important) | 00:19 |
| mirzam | Q: I ran ubuntu 8.10 on my desktop (a simple 1.6ghz 512mb ram machine) and it ran it like a champ, ever since I switched to jaunty it uses wayyyy too much ram (90% of physical ram and 75% of swap with maybe one or two things going) | 00:19 |
| mirzam | I've used top and so forth to check it out and the used ram simply isnt listed | 00:19 |
| keith | zealiod: It is under System->Administration->USB... | 00:20 |
| ror | mirzam, is it possible that compiz or other desktop effects have been enabled? | 00:20 |
| === Lukemob is now known as Lukemob` | ||
| funkyHat | natalie_: (first after testing the live CD I mean of course) | 00:20 |
| mirzam | yea compiz is enabled, but like I said, I ran compiz wide open with 8.10, and I actually tuned it down a bit when I upgraded | 00:20 |
| ror | System > Preferences > Appearance > Visual Effects. Set to none (or normal at most) for that machine | 00:21 |
| natalie_ | funkyHat: I already have /home on a different partition, so I should be okay | 00:21 |
| alybabe356 | anyone want to chat? add me on AIM alybabe356 thanx.<3 | 00:21 |
| mirzam | heh, thanks anyway, turning stuff off isnt the answer to everything though, it ran compiz well with 8.10, theres a bug going on there somewhere. | 00:22 |

| funkyHat | natalie_: sorry if I was being patronising then! Just make sure you pick the right partitions when you're installing (I was helping someone the other day who got it wrong *twice*) | 00:23 |
| ror | well yeah, but what I mean is some of the compiz plugins have changed and what's default etc | 00:23 |
| ror | oh he quit :( | 00:23 |
| reid | how do I reset $LogFile? (I forced a mount of an ntfs drive that was "uncleanly shutdown") =P | 00:23 |
| jdu | helper: yes, but it may depend on exactly what you mean. Ubuntu supports LTSP that would allow a server client relationship. | 00:23 |
| reid | ubuntu told me to reset $LogFile *shrug* | 00:23 |

| jdu | helper: yes. But you can forward graphical programs through it. | 00:27 |
| VCoolio | c0ntract0r: in terminal check what process is meant: ps -ef | grep 8230 | 00:27 |
| wers | funkyHat, i already have it | 00:27 |
| c0ntract0r | VCoolie, is it pts? | 00:28 |
| funkyHat | wers: so open it, find the plugin and tick enable. or perhaps you need to install compiz-fusion-plugins-{extra,main,unsupported} | 00:28 |
| funkyHat | wers: most likely not unsupported though | 00:29 |
| VCoolio | c0ntract0r: the process? never heard of. the command I gave is correct | 00:29 |
| wers | funkyHat, the plugin still isnt installed. i already installed all those packages | 00:29 |

| jdu | Mike94287: did you check where it was installed. Perhaps it is not in your path or it is not called that once installed. | 00:38 |
| wers | funkyHat, thank you very much :) | 00:38 |
| Ria_ch_ | hello :-) | 00:39 |
| billybigrigger | dn4, there is instructions on the wine website for adding the wine repo to ubuntu | 00:39 |
| funkyHat | wers: working now? | 00:39 |
| billybigrigger | dn4, then it stays up to date when you do an apt-get update | 00:39 |
| dn4 | billybigrigger: does it work for jaunty ? | 00:39 |
| wers | funkyHat, still purging :D | 00:39 |

| hhp2k1 | Hey everyone. Is there a dedicated room for the program Tilda? | 00:40 |
| jdu | helper: if the clients are always going to be in the same network, perhaps ltsp is what you want then. ltsp builds a client image of client os on the server. The clients boot off the network and all their files are stored on the server. The configuration can be defined on the server, because in reality, the clients are on the server. | 00:41 |
| Mike94287 | jdu: I found it, it was put into /usr/bin | 00:41 |
| billybigrigger | dn4, yes | 00:41 |
| stumped | i need help getting u9.04 to read both cd's and dvd's from my liteon dvdrom drive | 00:41 |

| stumped | it knows what it is | 00:42 |
| johnb003 | hey there are a few cable box STBs that work in linux, dct 6200 is one of them. It's simply a firewire interface block device, but I'm wondering if someone can do me a big favor and look up the code that communicates with the device. I'm writing a driver for windows. | 00:42 |
| stumped | but will not read anything i put into it | 00:42 |
| jdu | Ria_ch_: I forget, but is that where grub is /boot is too far from the beginning of the hard drive because you have an old bios | 00:42 |
| hlfshell | so Ctr + alt + backspace used to be reset X for me - after updating to 9.04 that shortcut stopped working. Did the shortcut change? How do I make it so that is restart x? | 00:42 |
| jdu | ? | 00:42 |
| wers | funkyHat, apparently, i have a ppa version of the package. it's a good thing that i didnt authenticate the ppa. ha! hehe | 00:42 |
| jdu | * grub in /boot | 00:42 |
| VCoolio | hlfshell: you need to add something to xorg.conf, wait, I'll paste it for you | 00:43 |
| hlfshell | thanks VCoolio | 00:43 |
| jdu | hlfshell: it was disabled in 9.04 | 00:43 |
| helper | jdu, i see and the client how i can let him connect as client to server ? when i install ubuntu there i can config it ? | 00:43 |
| hlfshell | wheres xorg.conf? /etc/? | 00:43 |
| TimeWaster2 | hi | 00:43 |
| balingup | Hi, can anyone help with opening a USB flash drive? its my main one and it wont work on 8.1 or 9.04 | 00:43 |
| bcmorr2 | hlfshell: I thought it was in ~/ | 00:44 |
| jdu | helper: with ltsp, the bios is setup to boot off the server. | 00:44 |
| VCoolio | hlfshell: paste this in /etc/X11/xorg.conf http://paste.ubuntu.com/168203/ | 00:44 |
| jdu | helper: install ubuntu on the server using the ltsp option of the alternate cd | 00:44 |
| bcmorr2 | hlfshell: i'm sorry, that was my wm config, I think it's in /etc/X11 | 00:44 |

| Jeremified | Can somebody name an inexpensive HD sound card that works with Jaunty out-of-the-box? | 00:45 |
| VCoolio | hlfshell: it won't work until next time you log in of course | 00:45 |
| bcmorr2 | i've just used aptitude to install dosbox and when trying to run the command I get the error that it doesn't exist | 00:45 |
| hlfshell | i figured. thanks VCoolio | 00:45 |
| helper | jdu, ya i check it https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuLTSP/LTSPQuickInstall | 00:45 |
| Jeremified | The one I have at the moment is an Intel HD, and it doesn't work with Jaunty at all (I've spent a week trying to get it to work). | 00:45 |
| helper | jdu, but i mean this is the server install ,and client how ? | 00:46 |
| yoyoned | bcmorr2: the comand to launch it may not be dosbox | 00:46 |
| wers | funkyHat, what's your version of the -extras package? i have 0.8.2-0ubuntu.12 | 00:46 |
| yoyoned | bcmorr2: look in the menu | 00:46 |
| bcmorr2 | yoyoned: when compiled from source it is, I wouldn't know how to figure out what else it could be, I can't even find a directory for it in /usr/local/bin | 00:46 |
| bcmorr2 | yoyoned: what menu? | 00:46 |
| funkyHat | wers: 0.8.2-0ubuntu1 | 00:47 |
| yoyoned | bcmorr2: did you install from source or use apt | 00:47 |
| bcmorr2 | yoyoned: apt | 00:47 |
| funkyHat | wers: sounds like the ppa is the problem, I'd remove it and install the regular version | 00:47 |
| wers | funkyHat, synaptic tells me that the version i had is from a ppa but i cant tell which ppa it is. any idea how i can determine? | 00:48 |
| wers | i already forced the version from the official repo but i dont know if this will still upgrade from the repo funkyHat | 00:48 |
| eseven73 | how can I check if mod_rewrite is enabled? I don't think it's working because a few link plugins that require it in wordpress don't seem to be working, its Ubuntu related because im hosting the site on Ubuntu Server Edition so don't tell me go to #wordpress im already there anyways :P | 00:48 |
| yoyoned | bcmorr2: I'm going to install it and see where the files go. Hang on a minute | 00:48 |
| jdu | helper: well, with ltsp, the clients require no config except at the bios level. They are totally configured on the server. Nothing even needs to be installed on the cliets. | 00:48 |
| bcmorr2 | yoyoned: I just apt-get remove | 00:49 |

| jdu | helper: in my experience, ltsp works really well, although a network failure can be a pain, because the clients rely on the network to do anything. The clients are also not going to be able to do things like high fps games. | 00:52 |
| emanuel__ | thanks | 00:52 |
| eseven73 | jlaroche, well I don't know what Id do without these fine folks in here, Id prolly just go back to windows, so hang in there someone will help you soon im sure :) | 00:52 |
| yoyoned | !alsa|jlaroche | 00:52 |
| jlaroche | thanks so much | 00:52 |
| ubottu | jlaroche: If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3 | 00:52 |
| helper | jdu, aha | 00:53 |
| eseven73 | jlaroche, I do know a dirty trick that you might have tried already, sudo alsa force-reload (make sure you set everything to ALSA in sound settings first though) | 00:53 |
| Jeremified | Roseenet: Not sure I can help with anything but ftp, might want to try finding someone else if you're looking for more file access than that | 00:53 |

| Dillizar | jdu, for dev i need to put just the name of it from lsusb | 01:01 |

| Schoengen | I disabled them then tried a few different versions all with the same result | 01:03 |
| jdu | Dillizar: rather, it will need to be a device name like /dev/sdb1 You probably don't need to specify a type like Dillizar said. | 01:03 |
| jdu | Dillizar: I mean like keith said | 01:03 |
| vertagano | Schoengen: When I upgraded to 9.04, I had to change to the nVidia 180 drivers. When you say, "failed", what do you mean? | 01:03 |

| SeligArkin | slestak: indeed, I had it fixed somehow, and now it is not, and I can't for the life of me remember how I fixed it | 01:21 |
| billw | slestak, got it had to look for the hardware drivers | 01:21 |

| RB2 | After I upgraded to 9.04, my X-Chat version stinks... there's no "Away" options and I can't find a way to have the user list show up on the right-hand side. What happened between 8.10 and 9.04?!? | 01:24 |
| slestak | RB2: doesnt xchat always stink? j/k | 01:24 |
| VCoolio | thadoood: there is .deb file here, download and just click on it http://www.detector-pro.com/2009/03/ardour-28-released-install-with-one.html | 01:24 |

| Hessy | I'm trying to figure out how to connect my laptop running ubuntu to my wireless adhoc network to share files with my windows computer | 01:25 |
| Hessy | i can't seem to figure it out | 01:25 |
| virtx | libmp3lame has some problem? | 01:25 |
| civpro | is there a slimmed down version of ubuntu meant for speed? | 01:25 |
| boringpackets | hi everyone | 01:25 |
| civpro | 64bit preferably | 01:26 |
| boringpackets | civpro mini installer | 01:26 |
| boringpackets | !mini | 01:26 |
| ubottu | 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 | 01:26 |
| jlaroche | My sound card is an Audigy 4. If I run AlsaMixer, should it be saying my Card is "Audigy 4 [SB0610]" wile my Chip is "SigmaTel STAC9750,51" ? | 01:26 |
| virtx | where can i get the libmp3lame src? on ubuntu 9.04 has problem | 01:26 |
| civpro | boring, thanks | 01:26 |
| boringpackets | no problem | 01:26 |
| slestak | SeligArkin: man, NM manages all my connections. can i still execute an arbitrary script after NM brings up wifi? | 01:27 |
| Hessy | I can't seem to see the network when I connect | 01:27 |
| RB2 | Ahh, much better. :) | 01:27 |
| civpro | looking for a basic system and running virtualbox overtop of it | 01:27 |
| slestak | SeligArkin: my /etc/networks/interfaces only mentions lo | 01:27 |
| SeligArkin | ah, slestak | 01:27 |
| DragonRift | how well does WINE work? | 01:27 |
| repnop | depends on the app | 01:28 |
| SeligArkin | I don't know then, I use roaming mode through wpasupplicant and ifupdown | 01:28 |
| civpro | is 9.04 stable? | 01:28 |
| slestak | DragonRift: pre3tty well for some apps, really accross the board | 01:28 |
| DragonRift | a opengl based app built on WXWidgets | 01:28 |
| Hessy | I share the internet through my desktop computer | 01:28 |
| matju | anyone, how do i autodetect the soundcard? i mean force re-autodetection, because Ubuntu stopped seeing it after an upgrade. | 01:28 |
| eseven73 | civpro, yea theres a few issues remaining, check that last link in the topic to see what I mean | 01:28 |
| Hessy | its the only one connected to the modem | 01:28 |
| Hessy | and use my laptop to connect to that | 01:28 |
| boringpackets | civpro in my experience, its the best most reliable ubuntu yet | 01:28 |
| boringpackets | and im using some bleeding edge hardware | 01:28 |
| Hessy | but i can't seem to be able to from ubuntu | 01:28 |
| civpro | eseven thanks | 01:28 |
| civpro | btw, this support channel is probably the best one i have seen for linux, most are dicks, excuse my language | 01:29 |
| === sebastien_ is now known as Kyostal | ||
| boringpackets | civpro, it's the target audience | 01:29 |
| boringpackets | if you fit it, you're accepted | 01:29 |
| civpro | guess i dont, lol | 01:30 |
| eseven73 | civpro, that's what sets Ubuntu apart from the rest, theres a ton of distros just as good as Ubuntu,but they don't have the community! :) | 01:30 |
| slestak | matju: can you lspci and see it? maybe google jaunty + that model andsee it it pops | 01:30 |
| civpro | eseven, i couldnt agree more | 01:30 |
| Hessy | so anyone have any idea how i can connect wirelessly to my windows computer to share files | 01:30 |
| slestak | Hessy: smbclient? nautilus? | 01:31 |
| matju | slestak: 00:1e.2 Multimedia audio controller: Intel Corporation 82801FB/FBM/FR/FW/FRW (ICH6 Family) AC'97 Audio Controller (rev 04) | 01:31 |
| matju | slestak: i'm not on jaunty yet, i'm using 8.10 as an interim distro | 01:31 |
| slestak | yeah, lots of hits on google. | 01:31 |
| ExAstris_ | can anyone recommend a good, transparent and light-colored gnome or emerald theme? | 01:32 |
| slestak | oh, well, lots of hits wrt jaunty | 01:32 |
| matju | slestak: so do you think i should look for AC 97 or for 82801 ? | 01:32 |
| Hessy | slestak those wont work if i can't even connect to the wireless network | 01:32 |
| Hessy | i even turned security off and ubuntu won't connect | 01:32 |
| slestak | matju: 82810 is where i would look, ac97 is all over the place | 01:32 |
| matju | slestak: thanks | 01:32 |
| civpro | i just went through pure hell trying to get archlinux installed, man, just trying to get the gui loaded is a pain | 01:33 |
| slestak | Hessy: im sorry, i didnt realize you had wifi issues, i just thought you needed to share files | 01:33 |
| jlaroche | sound help please | 01:33 |
| kaddi | hi, :) where can i get a version of amarok2 that will play CDs? Currently using 2.0.90 and I see no way of playing a CD. | 01:33 |
| Hessy | The drivers for the wifi seem to be working. I can connect to other networks in the neighborhood. But when I'm trying to connect to the computer I'm sharing the internet and the files through, it just refuses to connect. Even if I set up an adhoc network with no security | 01:34 |
| yokobr | hi folks | 01:34 |
| yokobr | i cant upgrade my ubuntu, or even update it | 01:34 |
| yokobr | Take a look at this http://pastebin.com/m1b2593bb | 01:35 |
| Hessy | Ok for some odd reason it let me connect now | 01:36 |
| Hessy | Is there any way to share files just dragging and dropping them? | 01:36 |
| slestak | Hessy: cool | 01:36 |
| Hessy | I can't actually see where I can browse the other computers hard drive | 01:37 |
| yokobr | http://pastebin.com/m1b2593bb | 01:37 |
| slestak | Hessy: i usually open a shared folder in Nautils | 01:37 |
| jlaroche | Could anyone help me get my sound blaster audigy 4 working in ubuntu 9.04 64 bit. It was working great, but suddenly stopped working two days ago. | 01:37 |
| slestak | Hessy: smb://machine/folder | 01:37 |
| marcus_aurelius | does anyone have an issue where downloading a bittorrent thru transmission stops your wireless network? | 01:37 |
| Pitufoide | Hello everyone....I updated to 9.0.4 and now the audio sounds horrible...every few seconds (30-40 s) the sound does like a quick machine gun, (6-10 shots)...any ideas ? | 01:38 |
| Mike_lifeguard | Hi folks. I've been noticing some system slowness recently, and I poked around in system monitor & saw that swap is slowly filling up to 100%, and cpu is growing along with it. I think this is probably related to flash in firefox, but killing firefox doesn't reduce swap usage (does reduce RAM usage)... I'm wondering if there's an easy way to see what's eating swap, or if this is a known problem. | 01:38 |
| bonez46 | marcus_aurelius: I'd think that would always be iffy.. unstable.. I prefer wired.. | 01:38 |
| boringpackets | pitufoide I'd try selecting different audio output drivers in volume control for a start | 01:38 |
| Hessy | slestak: Awesome. Thats what I was missing was the smb:// | 01:39 |
| Hessy | i was just typing in //computer/folder | 01:39 |
| Hessy | and wondering why it didn't work | 01:39 |
| boringpackets | pitufoide, additionally, i'd check hardware monitor to see if there is resource draining or DPC latency spikes during these machine gun shots | 01:39 |
| marcus_aurelius | bonez46: it's only downloading bittorrent that gives me issues, everything else is fine | 01:39 |
| Pitufoide | boringpackets: I've tried all drivers, I haven't check the resources yet. I will | 01:40 |
| bonez46 | hmmm | 01:40 |
| Hessy | It would be so much easier if i just had an external dvd drive | 01:40 |
| Hessy | silly netbooks without drives | 01:40 |
| varsendaggr | msg nickserv /identify morecowbell | 01:40 |
| varsendaggr | did anyone see that | 01:40 |
| marcus_aurelius | of course, bittorrent does tend to max out my network bandwidth, i was thinking i might be hitting some kind of threshold, buffer overflow, something like that | 01:40 |
| eseven73 | varsendaggr nope :P | 01:40 |
| boringpackets | Netbooks serve their purposes, I'd imagine people in here have much more purposes than netbooks provide | 01:41 |
| Hessy | yes | 01:41 |
| varsendaggr | crap | 01:41 |
| varsendaggr | how do i identify/ | 01:41 |
| slestak | SeligArkin: looks like NM ececutes scripts from /etc/NetworkManager/dispatch.d wheich also sources /etc/networks/if-up.d, so im covered | 01:41 |
| marcus_aurelius | '/msg nickserv identify you yourpassword ... i think | 01:41 |
| Hessy | boringpackets: they definately aren't powerhorses. But something small to like lay on the couch with and listen to some streaming music or something ya know | 01:41 |
| billybigrigger | marcus_aurelius, i know its all preference, but try out deluge, if you like utorrent style clients, deluge torrent is what your after, i personally hate transmission and doesnt ever seem to work right for me | 01:41 |
| Mike_lifeguard | just see /msg nickserv help identify | 01:42 |
| Hessy | i have a desktop if i need to do "power work" | 01:42 |
| varsendaggr | ha ha | 01:42 |
| boringpackets | hessy yeah, I went with the 13.3" notebook, to satisfy the power and mobility in one deal | 01:42 |
| marcus_aurelius | billybigrigger, thanks, i'll give that a try | 01:42 |
| slestak | boringpackets: since i've gotten mine, it gets 80-90% of my offwork needs done | 01:42 |
| Hessy | who sells a 13.3 inch? | 01:42 |
| kaddi | !amarok | 01:42 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about amarok | 01:42 |
| slestak | m1330 | 01:42 |
| slestak | dell | 01:42 |
| kaddi | !search amarok | 01:42 |

| boringpackets | slestak I got the 1340 | 01:43 |
| billybigrigger | jlaroche, easy on the repeats, asking the question once is good enough | 01:43 |
| Hessy | I originally bought the netbook as a portable dj computer | 01:43 |
| slestak | boringpackets: i want one, but honestly, the 910 meets my needs. | 01:43 |
| Hessy | I'm trying to put all my stuff on there. but without a dvd drive its a big pain | 01:43 |
| boringpackets | 4GB 1066 ddr3, nvidia 9500M, 2.66ghz core 2 6mbl2, 250gb, all crammed into a 13.3" chassy | 01:43 |
| Counterspell | I am running an 8.10 box but I want to install a particular package from 9.04, how can I do that? | 01:44 |
| boringpackets | slestak i had a 1330 before this, and this feels so much more "solid" than the 1330 | 01:44 |
| civpro | so whats the advantages to 9.04 ? | 01:44 |
| slestak | jlaroche: one troublehooting method might be to boot to a livecd of older ubuntu, or another distro to see if it works under those circumstances | 01:44 |
| boringpackets | the only problem with my 1340 is that the wireless does not function with 64bit drivers (both in linux and windows) | 01:45 |
| slestak | I ride my bike to work alot, so the 910 can barely be felt. and with ssd, i am not concerned aboutkilling the drive | 01:45 |
| vertagano | Counterspell: That sounds like a bad idea. Why do you want to use this package, but don't want to upgrade your Ubuntu? | 01:45 |
| jp88 | I was wondering if someone knows how to create 2 pppoe connections in ubuntu?? | 01:45 |
| slestak | 2.9lbs, and 4hrs battery. dont care if its slow | 01:45 |
| civpro | actually ill ask differently, where can i see the version improvement links at? | 01:45 |
| thadoood | is any one familiar with installing ardour 2.8 on ubuntu studio , i tryed to install the deb package with package installer and i get an error in the installer saying "Error:dependency is not satisfiable: libasound2" i have libasound2 installed | 01:45 |
| thadoood | what could be the problem | 01:46 |
| Counterspell | vertagano: upgrading ubuntu causes lots of trouble; i upgraded my laptop and now it randomly crashes plus i have problems with other apps | 01:46 |
| boringpackets | slestak i totally understand but i prefer having one single unit that 'does it all' | 01:46 |
| billybigrigger | civpro, ubuntu.com check the release notes | 01:46 |
| Hessy | i wish i could afford a 13 inch notebook right now | 01:46 |
| slestak | thadoood: maybe you need the -dev packages? | 01:46 |
| jlaroche | slestak: i may do that right now. Also, under system-->preferences-->sound the "Test" buttons make the correct beep sounds | 01:46 |
| Hessy | this 10 inch screen is small | 01:46 |
| thadoood | i have the dev package | 01:46 |
| boringpackets | i don't mind small screens, if I got a netbook i'd be much more concerned with how thick the frame around the screen was, than the screen size itself | 01:47 |
| slestak | jlaroche: check your mixer, and make sure you done have channels muted. | 01:47 |
| thadoood | i downloaded ardour_2.8.1~getdeb1_i386.deb | 01:47 |
| boringpackets | some of the earlier netbooks looked like laptops from the 80's with those huge frames around the small screens | 01:47 |
| jlaroche | slestak: no channels muted | 01:47 |
| slestak | jlaroche: pulse or alsa? | 01:47 |
| Hessy | i personally like the netbook..for the things i bought it for it works surprisingly well | 01:47 |
| jlaroche | ALSA | 01:47 |
| boringpackets | one of these days they'll make a laptop that has no enclosure for the screen, that just holds the screen as is. and i'll buy it | 01:48 |
| slestak | i saw an ad the other day, the 10" mini, 120g hd, 1g ram, xp (boo) $259 | 01:48 |
| blocky | has anyone with an older ATI card successfully reverted to Xorg 1.5 in jaunty? | 01:48 |
| boringpackets | not bad slestak, i'm thinking about selling my ibook g4 (given to me) to get a netbook around that cost | 01:48 |
| slestak | jlaroche: im sorry, im notgood with sound problems. | 01:48 |
| ubugtu | could anyone tell me how to play flash video sound on a bluetooth audio device? | 01:49 |
| dmizer | trying to pair my bluetooth headset with ibex, but the pin is always 0000 even though /etc/bluetooth/hcid.conf says 1234. i've also edited /etc/bluetooth/pin without success. | 01:49 |
| slestak | boringpackets: i like that they are basically disposable. i would obsess over a more expensivemachine, but i've paid more forphones befor | 01:49 |
| civpro | so what i think this is saying is jeos is designed for something like virtualbox correct? | 01:49 |
| Majix560 | brb, away | 01:49 |
| boringpackets | slestak people on ebay are paying upwards of $300 for the ibook g4 that i have, i'm really considering selling that old piece of junk for a netbook | 01:50 |
| ncfi1013 | why can't i delete/load songs to/from my ipod in amarok 2? | 01:50 |
| thadoood | ok i installed the libasound2-dev package and it still gives me the error "Error:dependency is not satisfiable:libasound2" | 01:50 |
| billybigrigger | who here runs ext4? | 01:50 |
| thadoood | ok i installed the libasound2-dev package and it still gives me the error "Error:dependency is not satisfiable:libasound2" | 01:50 |
| boringpackets | i love how apples marketing has zombified their target audience, otherwise my ibook would be worth nothing | 01:50 |
| boringpackets | billybigrigger i run ext4 on 9.04 amd64 | 01:50 |
| billybigrigger | i have 2x500gb SATA disks i am thinking about backing up and formatting to ext4, just wondering if its worth the trouble | 01:51 |
| ubugtu | boringpackets: can you delete files ok? | 01:51 |
| dmizer | trying to pair my bluetooth headset with ibex, but bluetooth-applet always uses a pin of 0000 even though /etc/bluetooth/hcid.conf says 1234. i've also edited /etc/bluetooth/pin without success. | 01:51 |
| Mike_lifeguard | I've been having slowness recently, so looked in system monitor & saw that swap is slowly filling up to 100%, with CPU/load growing along with it. I'm wondering if there's an easy way to see what's eating swap, or if this is a known problem. | 01:51 |
| boringpackets | billybigrigger ext4 is faster, and ubugtu i have had no problem deleting files | 01:51 |
| slestak | thadoood: i dunno man. maybe purge the existing libqasound and reinstall? is your deb lookingfor a newer libasound than your release offers? | 01:51 |
| billybigrigger | boringpackets, no journaling problems or lost data? | 01:51 |
| thadoood | im not sure slestak | 01:51 |
| ubugtu | boringpackets: do i have to reinstall my whole OS to switch to ext4 | 01:52 |
| boringpackets | billybigrigger none to speak of, and i have done a few improper shutdowns, which had no effect on the system upon reboot | 01:52 |
| Majix560 | back | 01:52 |
| thadoood | ill check into that Slestak and get back on it | 01:52 |
| Majix560 | brb | 01:52 |
| billybigrigger | boringpackets, i tried ext4 in the early alpha stages around A4 of jaunty when ext4 was first released and i had some problems with it corrupting data, so im a bit weary now thats all | 01:52 |
| boringpackets | ubugtu you can do that, or use partimage or simply tarball your partition | 01:52 |
| slestak | ubugtu: i kept my /home ext3 and everything else ext4 | 01:52 |
| _newbie_ | can some one help me wtih this error? Could not open '/lib/modules/2.6.27-11-generic/kernel/ubuntu/ndiswrapper/ndiswrapper.ko': No such file or directory | 01:52 |
| boringpackets | billybigrigger i really like ext4, though ive been considering reiser4 | 01:52 |

| ubugtu | how much faster is ext4? | 01:53 |
| billybigrigger | boringpackets, i just want something that will give me good transfer speeds and stable data | 01:53 |
| danes_ | or how can I know how much space I have left on my disk? | 01:53 |
| billybigrigger | boringpackets, do you run your ext4 drive in raid? | 01:53 |
| Majix560 | how do i get an image set as the title screen for a rom in Kamefu? and what format does it need to be? | 01:53 |
| dmizer | ubugtu: it depends on what you use it for. if you have a lot of extremely large files, you'll experience an increase in speed. otherwise, probably not. | 01:53 |
| civpro | any recommendations on books? | 01:53 |
| ubugtu | whats partimage? | 01:53 |
| boringpackets | ubugtu not THAT much, but noticeable to me (if its not a placebo effect) | 01:54 |
| billybigrigger | boringpackets, cause i was also thinking of putting the 2 500gb disks in raid with ext4 and want to know how well that works | 01:54 |

| kryle | hey, i have set up compiz fusion and have nice effects on my windows now, but how do i enable so i get same effects in the gnome menu ?? | 01:54 |
| boringpackets | billlybigrigger no raid for me, just a boring old 2.5" 250GB | 01:54 |
| Mike_lifeguard | kryle: not sure offhand, but there is #compiz-fusion | 01:54 |
| boringpackets | kryle i suggest you install compizconfig settings manager | 01:54 |
| Counterspell | I'm running Ubuntu 8.04.2 on a server and I run do-release-upgrade but I get the message "No new release found"; what's the deal where is 9.04? | 01:54 |
| kryle | i have that one xD | 01:55 |
| curo_ | hi | 01:55 |

| ubugtu | could anyone tell me how to play flash video sound on a bluetooth audio device? | 01:55 |
| slestak | dmizer: a2dp is the holy grail of bugs right now for me. ive had a headset for years i cannot pair with any distro. works with win of course | 01:55 |
| Counterspell | Counterspell: because you can only upgrade from 8.10 | 01:55 |
| Mike_lifeguard | danes_: sudo apt-get autoremove (I think) | 01:55 |
| Majix560 | how do i set an image as a title screen in the program Kamefu? what format does the image need to be? | 01:55 |
| danes_ | how can I make some room on my hdd to install new updates without affecting the system | 01:55 |

| Lacyel | [Mike_lifeguard]: ubuntu | 01:56 |
| billybigrigger | danes_, well really, sudo apt-get autoremove && sudo apt-get clean | 01:56 |

| Mike_lifeguard | Lacyel: don't use [], it won't ping people. | 01:56 |
| kryle | i have all those, and i have selected my favorite effects on everything, its only the gnome meny that dont have any effect =) | 01:56 |
| dmizer | slestak: a2dp? | 01:56 |
| epalm | slestak: isn't that cmd-line-only? Majix560: for ubuntu | 01:56 |
| Lacyel | [Mike_lifeguard]: actually its with the partition and install ubuntu on it | 01:56 |
| Mike_lifeguard | Lacyel: yes, I can try to help you - what, specifically, is your problem | 01:56 |
| Lacyel | [Mike_lifeguard]: sorry its the script :( | 01:56 |
| Mike_lifeguard | your script is broken :) | 01:57 |
| deagle | how do I make it pulseaudio not play choppy over the network? | 01:57 |
| Lacyel | [Mike_lifeguard]: thanks, i burned a cd here | 01:57 |
| slestak | dmizer: that is stereo sound over bluetooth, and avrcp is what will allow you to control volume with your headset | 01:57 |
| Lacyel | [Mike_lifeguard]: then when i started installing it, i saw there was two partitions already created on my pc | 01:57 |
| danes_ | is there a way to know which applications are the most space consuming? | 01:57 |
| Lacyel | [Mike_lifeguard]: and i have 2 hds | 01:57 |
| _newbie4 | can some one help me wtih this error? Could not open '/lib/modules/2.6.27-11-generic/kernel/ubuntu/ndiswrapper/ndiswrapper.ko': No such file or directory | 01:57 |
| Lacyel | [Mike_lifeguard]: each partition seemed to be set for each hd and each partition eats all hd space, the thing is | 01:57 |
| Majix560 | epalm: Get wine, which runs windows programs on linux. then get irfan view for windows onto ubuntu. | 01:57 |
| Mike_lifeguard | Lacyel: is this a dual-boot with Windows or something exotic? | 01:57 |
| marcus_aurelius | danes_: top | 01:58 |
| Lacyel | [Mike_lifeguard]: actually no, its just windows xp professional | 01:58 |
| Lacyel | [Mike_lifeguard]: since this pc is 5 years old | 01:58 |
| dot_to_dot | ok clearly synaptic package manager lied to me :P i thought this was a program to send morse | 01:58 |
| slestak | marcus_aurelius: i think he's looking for swap consupmtion | 01:58 |
| Lacyel | [Mike_lifeguard]: i believe my mother back there asked someone to create two partitions for both hds so she could use all the hds free space to windows xp | 01:58 |
| curo_ | anyone? | 01:58 |
| Mike_lifeguard | Lacyel: ok, so you need to shrink your windows partition(s) to make room for the ubuntu partitions | 01:58 |
| marcus_aurelius | slestak: wouldn't top work for that as well? | 01:58 |
| Lacyel | [Mike_lifeguard]: yesss exactly thats what i wanna do | 01:58 |

| ubugtu | could anyone tell me how to play flash video sound on a bluetooth audio device? | 01:58 |
| dmizer | slestak: i can't even get that far. i'm simply trying to pair the device. it won't pair because the default pin is incorrect, and bluetooth-applet won't give me the opportunity to enter a different pin | 01:58 |
| Mike_lifeguard | bah | 01:59 |
| Raf | hi all | 01:59 |
| Lacyel | [Mike_lifeguard]: but you see when i try to get some free space of this partition that already exists it says "ohh you gotta delete the previous all" | 01:59 |
| Majix560 | HELP! HELP! WHY wil no one tell me how to set an image as a title-screen for rom collection manager Kamefu? | 01:59 |
| Lacyel | [Mike_lifeguard]: but i cant just delete whats there :( | 01:59 |
| Raf | can someone please teach me how to use nautilus to upload documents to a protected website? | 01:59 |
| Mike_lifeguard | !patience | Majix560 | 01:59 |
| ubottu | Majix560: The people here are volunteers, your attitude should reflect that. Answers are not always available. See http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines | 01:59 |
| ajcates | I am coming from OSX and was wondering if they have lists of alternative apps kinda like how they do with windows and linux switchers | 01:59 |
| ajcates | or if anybody could recomend some | 01:59 |
| eseven73 | !helpme | Majix560 | 01:59 |
| ubottu | Majix560: Avoid your questions being followed by a trail of "Please, help me", "Can nobody help me?", "I really need this!", and so on. This just contributes to making the channel unreadable. If you are not answered, ask again later; but see also !repeat and !patience | 01:59 |
| billybigrigger | ajcates8=D alternative apps for what? | 01:59 |
| Raf | ajcates: what is it that you want? | 01:59 |
| Lacyel | [Mike_lifeguard]: so i was wondering if there wasnt a way to get this free partition space and use it to install ubuntu | 02:00 |
| Mike_lifeguard | Lacyel: yes, of course you can just nuke whatever's on the hard drive now (windows) - is that what you want to do? | 02:00 |
| dot_to_dot | f | 02:00 |
| Majix560 | sorry, but no one has said anything to me answering my question | 02:00 |
| Mike_lifeguard | Lacyel: or do you want to keep Windows so you can still boot into that as well | 02:00 |
| danes_ | marcus_aurelius, thanks, but I am looking for installed apps. My partition is already full, so I need to make some room and I need to know the size of the apps | 02:00 |
| Lacyel | [Mike_lifeguard]: i want both windows and ubuntu, but the thing is, the two hds have two partitions, one for each, both have files already inside of it | 02:00 |
| ajcates | @Raf an FTP app, quicklook, quicksliver | 02:00 |
| ncfi1013 | why can't i delete/load songs to/from my ipod in amarok 2? | 02:01 |
| Lacyel | [Mike_lifeguard]: one of those partitions still have 50 gb left unused, but its inside the partition, not free space outside the partition | 02:01 |
| Raf | FTP, you can use Nautilus (Places> | 02:01 |
| Mike_lifeguard | Lacyel: right, but Gparted can shrink those partitions (assuming there is empty space on the hard drives) | 02:01 |
| Raf | g2g | 02:01 |
| Raf | sorry | 02:01 |
| Raf | bye | 02:01 |
| FloodBot3 | Raf: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 02:01 |
| Lacyel | [Mike_lifeguard]: yea the thing is theres 160gb on the hard drive, but this partition demands 160gb, altough i'm only using 80 gb | 02:01 |
| billybigrigger | ajcates8=D for FTP use filezilla, and what is quicklook and quicksilver? | 02:01 |
| Majix560 | Lacyel: could be that you don't have the drivers for the file format used by your ipod | 02:01 |
| Majix560 | installed | 02:02 |
| dot_to_dot | k | 02:02 |
| Lacyel | eh? ipod? | 02:02 |
| danes_ | how can I get rid of the temporary files? I really need help. I don't want to mess up with the file system again and end up with a messed ubuntu. I need to make room on my hdd | 02:02 |
| Majix560 | I thoguht that was what you said | 02:02 |
| ajcates | @Lacyel quick look is where you press space on any item and it opens it in a little preview window | 02:02 |
| billybigrigger | danes_, sudo apt-get autoremove && sudo apt-get clean | 02:02 |
| danes_ | billybigrigger, I already tried that | 02:02 |
| Mike_lifeguard | Lacyel: what do you mean the partition "demands 160GB"? If it's only got X gigs of data in it, then you can shrink it, leaving empty space outside the partition | 02:03 |
| Majix560 | sorry laycel, i thyink I read someone elses message under your name | 02:03 |
| danes_ | that only gave me 200mb, but that's not enough :s | 02:03 |
| ajcates | @Lacyel http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quick_Look | 02:03 |
| Mike_lifeguard | Lacyel: Then use that space to make new partitions for ubuntu | 02:03 |
| marcus_aurelius | danes_: how big is your rootfs? | 02:03 |
| danes_ | 8.8 gb | 02:03 |

| billybigrigger | danes_::: well start cleaning up your /home | 02:03 |
| Lacyel | [Mike_lifeguard]: yea thats what i wanted to do! the windows that mentions about the partitions when i run ubuntu on live cd says that | 02:03 |
| marcus_aurelius | danes_: is there any other space left on your drive? | 02:04 |
| Lacyel | [Mike_lifeguard]: i have those 2 hds, they both have around 160 gb, but then i also have already two partitions, one for HD1, other for HD2, and it says these partitions have 160 gb size | 02:04 |

| marcus_aurelius | do you have any free unused space on your drive? | 02:06 |
| Majix560 | ncfil1013: you could look in synaptic thoguh | 02:06 |
| ncfi1013 | "open file"? majix560 | 02:06 |

| ncfi1013 | ipod control majix560? maybe? | 02:07 |

| magyar | hi, trying to install kubuntu, but having a hard time to configure software raid during install. Can anyone help with this issue? | 02:33 |

| Zesturian | Hello, with apf (active policy firewall) how can I apply the hosts.deny rules to ALL interfaces? | 02:35 |
| coz_ | RB2, mm ok | 02:35 |
| rakudave | RB2: it was disabled in jaunty as not to confuse users. Alt+SysRq+K is the new Crtl+Alt+Backspace now | 02:35 |

| coz_ | RB2, i dont think you need the Option "DPMS" | 02:35 |
| coz_ | RB2, but that is not I dont believe the issue here | 02:36 |

| danes_ | I need help. I have free space on my hdd, but the "/" partition shows 0 bytes available. What can I do | 02:37 |

| magyar | hi, how can i install software raid in ubuntu? | 02:37 |
| coz_ | RB2, you will need to remove the nvidia driver you have now though with sudo /usr/bin/nvidia-installer --uninstall | 02:38 |
| RB2 | coz_, will that remove the modalias stuff and the kernel modules as well? | 02:38 |
| coz_ | RB2, yes it should | 02:38 |

| danes_ | Mike_lifeguard, ok, that works, but I was expecting a command to copy and paste from terminal because partition manager won't let me do it | 02:44 |
| ESphynx | rods: how? | 02:44 |
| Mike_lifeguard | danes_: sudo fdisk -l will show you the same thing in terminal | 02:45 |

| rainofkayos | and what file system is the drive? | 03:01 |
| valued | i'd read about using dd. i've played with other tools, but they aren't reliable. | 03:01 |
| aaron_ | when a system slows down it usally means a virus or some software error or many other things. | 03:01 |
| rainofkayos | Deadpool: if ur not using swap thats not bad | 03:01 |
| rainofkayos | Deadpool: it means your not using all you memory | 03:01 |
| aaron_ | it can't be hardware resources cause it should be slow since I loaded ubuntu on . | 03:01 |
| valued | I've tried using 'keep', but there's no docs on it, and I can't restore using it. :-( | 03:01 |
| danes_ | Mike_lifeguard, it appears on -> System -> Administration -> system monitor -> File Systems | 03:01 |
| danc3 | valued: as I already told you, use tar/cp | 03:01 |
| rainofkayos | Deadpool: swap should be i believe 1.5 to 2 times the size of memory | 03:01 |
| danes_ | Mike_lifeguard, I know that space is free because I uninstalled several apps | 03:02 |
| rainofkayos | keep? | 03:02 |
| Jamed | Deadpool: 8 gig of swap is rally too much | 03:02 |
| valued | I'll read up on 'cp' and see what the 'backup' option looks like, thanks. | 03:02 |
| Mike_lifeguard | danes_: then that space must be inside a mounted partition | 03:02 |
| valued | 'tar' has so many options it scares me. | 03:02 |
| rainofkayos | valued: mount the drive with r/w options as root and tar the partition and cp it to the buffalo | 03:02 |
| Mike_lifeguard | danes_: so the system already has access to that space | 03:02 |
| danes_ | Mike_lifeguard, that makes sense | 03:02 |

| Jamed | Deadpool: i have 1 and it is used rarely | 03:02 |
| Deadpool | i have 8gigs of ram... i think that 1.5 to 2x swap space to ram was intended for people with about 512megs of ram.. not 8 gigs | 03:03 |
| aaron_ | ok | 03:03 |
| rainofkayos | tar -cvf nameoftarfile.tar nameofdirectorytotar | 03:03 |
| valued | the drive initially mounts with r/w, but after a while becomes read only. it's very irritating. | 03:03 |
| danes_ | Mike_lifeguard, or how can I identify the mounted partitions? | 03:03 |
| Mike_lifeguard | sudo umount /dev/? (or in partition manager, if you want to use gui) | 03:03 |
| office | danes_, single mode | 03:03 |
| rainofkayos | valued: what does dmesg say? | 03:03 |
| Deadpool | im going to google about it | 03:03 |
| office | and umount | 03:03 |
| valued | thanks. | 03:03 |
| valued | how do i query with dmesg? | 03:03 |
| rainofkayos | with that command | 03:03 |
| rainofkayos | 'dmesg' | 03:04 |
| rainofkayos | or even messages | 03:04 |

| rainofkayos | maybe fsck it will help you out then | 03:04 |

| rainofkayos | whats the fs of the drive ntfs? | 03:04 |
| sebsebseb | Mike_lifeguard: can't install updates | 03:04 |

| rainofkayos | i would chkdsk the drive from windows and try to mount it again | 03:05 |
| Mike_lifeguard | danes_: although... why do you want to unmount the partition? | 03:05 |
| Deadpool | i found my answer regarding ram.. http://www.cyberciti.biz/tips/linux-swap-space.html | 03:05 |
| valued | no reason, it just starts failing and says stuff is read only. | 03:05 |

| nesrail | anyone that can help with VNC setup? | 03:06 |
| birk | sure, what's wrong nesrail ? | 03:06 |
| Mike_lifeguard | danes_: unmounting the partition just means you can't access it... it still leaves all the data where it is physically on disk | 03:06 |
| aaron_ | cause I can't use blender even though I installed it but when I click on it nothing happens. | 03:06 |
| vertagano | nesrail: What's your VNC problem? | 03:06 |
| rainofkayos | Mike_lifeguard: precisely | 03:06 |
| Mike_lifeguard | aaron_: you'll need to be more specific for anyone to help you | 03:06 |
| birk | nesrail talk here | 03:07 |
| rainofkayos | <---names aaron too =) | 03:07 |
| Mike_lifeguard | rainofkayos: precisely what? | 03:07 |
| aaron_ | I can't get open gl to work. if I try opening any app that uses open gl like blender It won't open at all. | 03:07 |
| birk | nesrail, you basically just need to set a port | 03:07 |
| valued | hrm... I'm gonna log off and try 'tar' and see what happens. | 03:07 |
| valued | thanks again. | 03:07 |
| birk | run the vnc server, set a port & password on the server | 03:07 |
| rainofkayos | Mike_lifeguard: was agreeing with what you said about umount | 03:07 |
| Mike_lifeguard | and btw, who was having issues with their ntfs filesystem? was that you, rainofkayos? | 03:08 |
| danes_ | Mike_lifeguard, ok, I got that. Then my question is: how come, if I made space by uninstalling some apps I am not able to use such space? Is there a place where I can paste a picture? | 03:08 |
| birk | then from another computer on the vnc client just connect w/ that password | 03:08 |
| rainofkayos | no | 03:08 |
| nesrail | birk, is it that simple?? | 03:08 |
| Mike_lifeguard | oh, ok :o | 03:08 |
| birk | yes | 03:08 |
| aaron_ | I tried running by terminal and I get a error | 03:08 |
| nesrail | I need to work on my mothers computer remotely | 03:08 |
| birk | if you're behind a router, and you're trying to vnc in, you'll have to do some port forwarding w/ the router, but other than that it's that simple | 03:08 |
| aaron_ | from what I found on google. Is that I am having trouble with nvidia drivers. | 03:08 |

| rainofkayos | hmm | 03:08 |
| nesrail | birk, is that possible or should I stick with the "msn messenger" way | 03:09 |
| Mike_lifeguard | danes_: you should be able to use all the space available (ie free space in mounted partitions) | 03:09 |
| office | nesrail, mothers computer is on windows ? | 03:09 |
| birk | yeah it's possible | 03:09 |
| nesrail | yes | 03:09 |
| office | then | 03:09 |
| office | on windows enable remote desktop | 03:09 |
| office | on linux use: rdestop mothers.host | 03:09 |
| rainofkayos | rdesktop baby =) | 03:10 |
| birk | office, i think he wants vnc not rdc | 03:10 |
| office | and thats it | 03:10 |
| office | brik rdp its faster | 03:10 |
| danes_ | Mike_lifeguard, exactly. That is my point, but I don't know why, it is not taking the "free space" as free. Where can I paste a picture, so that I can show you the output of system monitor? | 03:10 |
| office | on linux - windows | 03:10 |
| birk | that's debatable, but ok :l | 03:10 |

| J_Wesker | Hi everyone! I'm having a problem with Ubuntu 9.04 both 32 bits and 64 bits.. It's a sudden shutdown after some overheating.. I have a laptop Gateway T1625, with AMD Turio 64 X2. | 03:14 |
| FloridaGuy | ( Unable to start settings manager 'Gnome-Settings-Daemon' ) | 03:15 |
| danes_ | Mike_lifeguard, let me try that | 03:15 |

| aaron_ | or still has bugs? | 03:15 |

| rainofkayos | =( | 03:16 |
| office | J_Wesker, add to grub vista boot image | 03:16 |
| aaron_ | The reason is that I can't run open gl and thought maybe if I upgrade I can get it fix. Not sure. | 03:16 |
| danes_ | Mike_lifeguard, http://i43.tinypic.com/2q83fc4.png | 03:17 |
| Dr_Willis | this is weird.. I have 3 external usb hard drives attatched to this ubuntu box. i boot up. None are seen (not even by fdisk -l) UNTILL i plug in a 4th one.. then somthing kicks in. and all 4 get seen, and gnome opens up a file manager window for each one. | 03:17 |
| Drastic | rainofkayos: Rhythymbox will play m4as, I'm pretty sure. | 03:17 |
| Drastic | Rhythmbox, even | 03:17 |
| Mike_lifeguard | danes_: yes, so that space is empty, and it is mounted normally, and you should be able to write to it | 03:17 |
| chuck_ | c0ntract0r, and a play -l says no sound card found correct? | 03:17 |
| Mike_lifeguard | danes_: *should* ... if you can't, I don't know why that'd be the case :\ | 03:17 |

| ESphynx | newuser : why not go 64 ? | 03:33 |

| billybigrigger | Computer_Man::: the more you use the command line, the easier it gets | 03:40 |

| === danopia`cow is now known as danopia | ||

| waglap | billybigrigger> haha its windows dvd right? youre very dumb and no its not a hacked version dim wit | 03:51 |
| newuser | When doing a fresh install of ubuntu, is it best to have your home folder in it own partition? Does this make upgrading/updating or reinstalling the next version of ubuntu easier?? | 03:51 |
| ubugtu | Dr_Willis: i tried that | 03:51 |
| office | billybigrigger, i can boot from cd aand edit grub | 03:51 |
| Dr_Willis | ubugtu: be carefull where ya click when ya run xkill :) | 03:51 |
| billybigrigger | waglap::: ok, if its a windows dvd, then why do you need to mount it in ubuntu if your not using it in a virtual machine? | 03:51 |
| billybigrigger | waglap::: who's dumb now? | 03:51 |
| XiXaQ | when you uninstall applications using gnome app-install, does it purge of just remove the application? | 03:51 |
| ubugtu | Dr_Willis: why? what does xkill do? | 03:51 |

| FUbbyCD | how do i reset to default | 03:53 |
| ubugtu | thanks | 03:53 |
| newuser | waglap then get your dvd drive fixed. I can think of no easy way for you to install vista at this point. | 03:53 |
| office | waglap, but new cd | 03:54 |
| billybigrigger | waglap::: k, lets start from the beginning...i'm here to help you, not argue with you, so if your asking for help, listen...now are you trying to install WINDOWS ONLY, or DUAL-BOOT??? | 03:54 |
| newuser | also billybugger is right, you should install vista first, then add ubuntu if you want both. | 03:54 |
| FUbbyCD | hay | 03:54 |
| Chaorain | I'm trrying to install Ubuntu 9.04 on a 1.5 TB HDD. Installs just fine but won't boot. No error message. Help? | 03:54 |
| billybigrigger | Chaorain::: did you skip the usplash and look for errors? | 03:54 |
| billybigrigger | Chaorain::: or do you even get to usplash? | 03:55 |
| Chaorain | no | 03:55 |
| mikea | Hey guys | 03:55 |
| billybigrigger | Chaorain::: do you see grub start? | 03:55 |
| mikea | is there an easy way to associate files in gnome with a wine application | 03:55 |
| waglap | dvd rom is dead I have the vista iso ubuntu was installed via usb drive.......... I want to install vista along with the ubuntu thats already installed | 03:55 |
| ubugtu | Dr_Disk: alt+F2 didnt work | 03:55 |
| office | Chaorain, remove splash quiet | 03:55 |
| Chaorain | It goes through the bios and no messages | 03:55 |
| office | Chaorain, add debug | 03:55 |
| Chaorain | where? | 03:55 |
| mikea | for example assigning .doc files to open with MS word instead of Oo.org? | 03:55 |
| ubugtu | Dr_Willis: alt+f2 didnt work | 03:55 |
| FUbbyCD | how do you reset video settings to default my ubuntu does not show 1024 x 768 anymore | 03:56 |
| yoyoned | mikea: right click on the fiel | 03:56 |
| Chaorain | on the live cd boot screen? | 03:56 |
| Drastic | waglap: your drive is dead, or your vista DVD is? | 03:56 |
| === blind_ is now known as blind | ||
| FUbbyCD | and i remember fixing it before by deleting something | 03:56 |
| billybigrigger | ubugtu::: alt-f2 *should* bring up the run command dialog box, but it doesn't work on my machine either since 9.04 | 03:56 |
| newuser | waglap, no easy way to do that unless you have an external or other dvd/cd drive that works. | 03:56 |
| office | FUbbyCD, dpkg-reconfigure xorg.conf | 03:56 |
| waglap | drive | 03:56 |
| Dr_Willis | mikea: i think ive seen it done by using a 'script' that calls wine with the right options/paths. and you assoicate a file wit that script. | 03:56 |
| FUbbyCD | thankyou | 03:56 |
| FUbbyCD | u da man | 03:56 |
| Dr_Willis | mikea: seen an example of tht for firefox and using 'wine utorrent.exe' | 03:56 |
| lflashlnzl | waglap, reinstall vista then install ubuntu you can make a USB vista install if you want... anywhere close to what you want? | 03:56 |
| ubugtu | ubuntu has turned into ubugtu since 9.04 | 03:56 |
| mikea | yoyoned: the problem is there isn't a program listed for word, even though there are launchers in the menu.. | 03:56 |
| billybigrigger | waglap::: you could always run windows inside ubuntu through a virtual machine like i said about 5 times | 03:57 |
| FUbbyCD | Package `xorg.conf' is not installed and no info is available. | 03:57 |
| FUbbyCD | Use dpkg --info (= dpkg-deb --info) to examine archive files, | 03:57 |
| blind | Dr_Willis: That works? Having firefox use 'wine utorrent.exe' for torrent files? | 03:57 |
| Chaorain | office, Grub doesn't t even load I am puting it in a /boot partition (Ext2 600 MB) | 03:57 |
| waglap | billybigrigger: ok so I will but how do I do that if I only have the iso? | 03:57 |
| ubugtu | how do you get the dialog box to work | 03:57 |
| office | FUbbyCD, fuck | 03:57 |
| office | sorry | 03:57 |
| Dr_Willis | blind: the script had a few other things i recall.. I never tried it. | 03:57 |
| billybigrigger | waglap::: easy, install virtual box | 03:57 |
| FUbbyCD | np | 03:57 |
| office | dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg | 03:57 |
| office | with sudo | 03:57 |
| FUbbyCD | that would be it | 03:57 |
| FUbbyCD | thanks | 03:57 |
| waglap | ok billybigrigger I will give it a go | 03:57 |
| yoyoned | mikea: what type of file are you trying to open. Can you just use openoffice | 03:57 |
| Dr_Willis | blind: but that was the core of the idea.. assoicate the .torrent with the 'usetorrent.sh' script | 03:57 |
| mikea | yoyoned: OpenOffice works, but meh, I prefer office 2k7 :-) | 03:58 |

| Drastic | jaypur: install XP over vista | 04:01 |
| Drastic | jaypur: leave a partition to install ubuntu on | 04:01 |

| office | example | 04:01 |
| teapot | Excuse me, can anyone help me get UPnP working? | 04:02 |
| jaypur | Drastic, ive tried but it got a problem... but if i do the patition way, will it be ok? | 04:02 |
| Drastic | jaypur: What was the problem? | 04:02 |
| poningru | teapot, what are you trying to do? | 04:02 |
| civpro | how do i start gnome desktop? | 04:02 |
| jaypur | Drastic, it wasnt installing any of those systems (xp and ubuntu) | 04:02 |
| XiXaQ | mattgyver, everything and anything you can find in ms-dos is available in ubuntus terminal, and much more. Different syntaxes and command names though :) | 04:02 |
| jaypur | Drastic, now i got a full partition free, and another with vista.... | 04:03 |
| zeltikon | i just installed an osx theme for ubuntu. is there a way to get the close, min, and max buttons on the left side of the window frame? | 04:03 |
| bronyaur | will gdesklets ever work with 9.04?? | 04:03 |
| Drastic | jaypur: OK, so stick your XP disc in, reboot and install XP like you would normally. When you get to the partitioning bit delete all your partitions, then create a new one for XP and leave the rest of the space free | 04:03 |
| office | XiXaQ, 80% person on this # never see msdos | 04:03 |

| criminy | !pulseaudio | 04:03 |
| ubottu | PulseAudio is a sound server intended as a drop-in replacement for !ESD - See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PulseAudio for information and installation instructions | 04:03 |
| teapot | poningru: I'm trying to get my Android phone to control the XBMC media center. According to the website it works, but it provides no instructions whatsoever and Google has been unhelpful. | 04:03 |
| XiXaQ | office, I'm sure :) | 04:04 |
| poningru | uh... | 04:04 |
| Drastic | jaypur: Then when you install ubuntu you should create a new partition in the free space (don't install side by side, create a new partition for it) | 04:04 |
| jaypur | Drastic, yeah, thats my plan, let me see if it works now.... ill let ya know! | 04:04 |
| poningru | you have xbmc running on ubuntu or an xbox? | 04:04 |

| office | you dont have wifi driver on ubunut | 04:28 |
| teapot | poningru: I think you're right. | 04:28 |
| IndyGunFreak | DaveCo: i've done it lots of times. | 04:28 |
| RobAGD | DaveCo - depends on what you want to them to do | 04:28 |
| poningru | as in if you have a upnp server with songs on it your upnp client can play songs from the server | 04:28 |
| danes_ | office, yes, I didn't explain myself. The other computer connects to internet only with wireless card. Can I still make it? | 04:29 |
| teapot | poningru: Yeah, that's what I thought. | 04:29 |
| IndyGunFreak | DaveCo: you just have to have realistic expectations | 04:29 |
| poningru | so by controller I meant a upnp client | 04:29 |
| chuck_ | DaveCo, I'd do just to see if it works | 04:29 |

| poningru | mobi-sheep__, there is a dns related package you install for it to run | 04:33 |
| office | _danes_, easiest be install from cd | 04:33 |
| dayo | Mike_lifeguard: top | 04:33 |
| Esde[irssi] | how do i install TrueCrypt on 9.04? | 04:33 |
| mobi-sheep__ | Opshlds: There are Ubuntu Support documentary and community documentary on the Ubuntu website. However, if you prefer human support, then you can do so here. :) | 04:34 |
| Mike_lifeguard | dayo: that shows what each process is using of ram, doesn't it? | 04:34 |
| poningru | mobi-sheep__, and then you can go into network manager and have it do share connection | 04:34 |
| Opshlds | Yeah, I def prefer human support? | 04:34 |
| mobi-sheep__ | poningru: What package is that? I tried bridge-utils as outlined in one of the websites recently. | 04:34 |
| fungos | my father upgraded his ubuntu last night and the wireless stopped working. It is a sis191 (module sis190) but dmesg shows "wlan0: link is not ready" and nothing more. It worked before upgrade. | 04:34 |
| mobi-sheep__ | Opshlds: State your issues. People here will answer if they know the solution. | 04:35 |
| poningru | mobi-sheep__, trying to find it | 04:35 |
| Opshlds | So... I've just installed Hardy Heron 8.04, and Was trying to figure out what kernel version I have? | 04:35 |
| bhuey | folks, how I can configure my syslog to output the netfilter logs to a seperate file ? | 04:35 |
| mobi-sheep__ | poningru: Okay. Take your time. :) | 04:35 |
| Opshlds | Is there a terminal command I can use? | 04:35 |
| _danes_ | office, then I'm lost. It is more complicated. I think that I will wait until I get a wired connection. | 04:35 |
| dayo | Mike_lifeguard: yeah | 04:36 |
| poningru | mobi-sheep__, dnsmasq-base | 04:36 |
| mobi-sheep__ | Opshlds: "uname -a" in the terminal will tell you. | 04:36 |
| poningru | thats it | 04:36 |
| Opshlds | Nice | 04:36 |
| Mike_lifeguard | dayo: and if firefox is eating memory, but killing it reduces ram usage but not swap usage then there's a problem right? I mean... RAM isn't even full, so no swap should be used at all | 04:36 |
| poningru | well you can install dnsmasq | 04:36 |
| poningru | but -base isnt the whole thing and I recommend that | 04:36 |
| _danes_ | office, one last thing, how can I connect when using eth0? | 04:36 |

| office | _danes_, route add default gw GATEWAY IP | 04:38 |
| dayo | Mike_lifeguard: start top then press 'f' then press 'p' it sorts procs according to swap usage. | 04:38 |
| office | or if you have dhacpd server | 04:38 |
| office | dhclient3 eth0 | 04:38 |
| Mike_lifeguard | ah, I didn't know it separated swap and ram | 04:38 |
| _danes_ | office, sorry for being such an ignorant, but how can I know my IP? | 04:38 |
| Mike_lifeguard | thanks | 04:38 |

| rainofkayos | things break | 04:40 |
| _danes_ | office, Ohh I got it. with ifconfig? | 04:40 |
| rainofkayos | everything works fine for me here now with 8.10 | 04:40 |
| rainofkayos | i would rather test the latest in a VM for a while before i go and upgrade | 04:41 |
| chika_cute | hiiiiiiii............? | 04:41 |
| chuck_ | donavan_, right click it click edit connections wireless tap/ left click the one you want to connect to then click edit there should be a tab to connect auto | 04:41 |
| IndyGunFreak | DaveCo: take the Pentium 4, add any compatible memory from the others, take the biggest hard drive, make it the master, if you need another one, make it slave.. and go from there. | 04:41 |
| mobi-sheep__ | DaveCo: I don't know if you can do that. Unless you're talking about 'distcc' | 04:41 |
| mobi-sheep__ | !info distcc | 04:41 |
| IndyGunFreak | DaveCo: its not that hard.. just take the best of everything, and put it in one box. | 04:41 |

| fungos | rainofkayos: do NOT upgrade.. its really breaking everything | 04:41 |
| office | _danes_, first you must share internet connection in com[puter with net | 04:41 |
| chika_cute | hiiiiiiiiii | 04:41 |
| dayo | Mike_lifeguard: i think it's actually 'F' not 'f' | 04:41 |
| rainofkayos | fungos: yep im aware.. thats usually like a 'standard' no | 04:41 |
| IndyGunFreak | fungos: ?.. thats ridiculous.. i've had no problems at all. | 04:41 |
| rainofkayos | dont upgrade unless you need to | 04:41 |
| _danes_ | office, yes, but If I connect it directly to the router I don't need to do that, right? | 04:42 |
| IndyGunFreak | rainofkayos: ive not had a single issue at all.. i know some of hte intel graphics chips are causing probs. | 04:42 |
| rainofkayos | IndyGunFreak: whats your version of python? | 04:42 |
| Mike_lifeguard | dayo: figured it out... though total swap usage (in system monitor) doesn't go down when killing high-swap-using processes like firefox | 04:42 |
| office | _danes_, if directly to router try sudo dhclient3 eth0- | 04:42 |
| office | _danes_, if directly to router try sudo dhclient3 eth0 | 04:42 |
| rainofkayos | is it > 2.5 ? | 04:42 |
| IndyGunFreak | rainofkayos: i have no clue, i don't use python | 04:42 |
| mobi-sheep__ | poningru: Can you please explain a bit more? I installed dnsmasq and I tried "Edit Connection" to toggle on "Shared to other computers" on Auto Eth0. | 04:42 |
| rainofkayos | yes you do | 04:43 |
| _danes_ | office, allright | 04:43 |
| rainofkayos | you may not know it but you do | 04:43 |
| poningru | mobi-sheep__, restart the computer | 04:43 |
| fungos | IndyGunFreak: in 3 different machines I had done upgrade something got broken! its a fact. My father just upgrade and wireless got fscked. | 04:43 |
| IndyGunFreak | rainofkayos: well maybe i do, but i have no need to worry about what version it is. | 04:43 |
| nevada1920 | hi | 04:43 |
| rainofkayos | hmm | 04:43 |
| donavan_ | chuck_: thanks I figured it would be that tough but just missed it when i was looking | 04:43 |
| mobi-sheep__ | poningru: Okay. Be right back. | 04:43 |

| compubomb | just curious. | 04:52 |
| maco | compubomb: hardware | 04:52 |
| rainofkayos | IndyGunFreak: cool.. i was just confused partmagick is the live CD with all the resize tools right? | 04:52 |
| maco | compubomb: just dont use fakeraid or software raid, and you should be ok | 04:52 |
| IndyGunFreak | RAMBO: the partition programs are about all the same | 04:52 |
| IndyGunFreak | rainofkayos: yeah.. | 04:53 |
| pooq | b43? | 04:53 |
| maco | compubomb: fakeraid / software raid ...recipe for pain in many cases | 04:53 |
| IndyGunFreak | rainofkayos: has some disk checking utilities, etc.. its pretty handy to have actually | 04:53 |
| rainofkayos | cool.. im really bad with names .. i.e. packages, etc | 04:53 |
| RAMBO | IndyGunFreak: argh. I need to find my GParted CD. I know I have one around somewhere. Can't I do it within Vista? | 04:53 |
| Opshld1 | Broadcom 43x driver, i think | 04:53 |
| rainofkayos | IndyGunFreak: does it have the ntfs-3g? | 04:53 |
| maco | RAMBO: you can just use the ubuntu cd you used to install | 04:53 |
| rainofkayos | i forget | 04:53 |
| IndyGunFreak | rainofkayos: yes | 04:53 |
| rainofkayos | nice | 04:53 |
| IndyGunFreak | RAMBO: i told you i don't know, i don't think you can... | 04:53 |
| pooq | oh, no | 04:53 |
| Opshld1 | Hrmm, ok thanks | 04:53 |
| RAMBO | Does the Windows 7 disc have a built in partition editor? | 04:53 |
| RAMBO | Maco: Oh, I can just do that I guess. | 04:54 |
| rainofkayos | i think i actually burned it to CD somewhere.. you know i still have a copy of linux defender.. | 04:54 |
| * rainofkayos has nothing to do with anything | 04:54 | |
| RAMBO | And never mind, I found my Gparted live CD | 04:54 |
| pooq | i have a little experience w/ madwifi | 04:54 |
| rainofkayos | i battled wifi for weeks,, to find network manager was controllnig my wireless and all i had to do was right click the icon and select my network | 04:55 |
| lump | can dns be used just on an internal network for host names? | 04:55 |
| IndyGunFreak | i just like partedmagic, because its got quite a few different disk tools on it. | 04:55 |
| rainofkayos | lump: yes | 04:55 |
| lump | thanks | 04:55 |
| IndyGunFreak | lol | 04:55 |
| office | rainofkayos, wicd | 04:55 |
| jake | how secure is linux | 04:55 |
| rainofkayos | ubuntu is weird.. i dont think red hat uses network manager.. or if it does.. | 04:55 |
| IndyGunFreak | wicd is ok, but it was causing me to randomly lose my connection, so i ditched it.. nm-applet is fine | 04:55 |
| RAMBO | If I install Windows 7 onto a partition will it b0rk up my MBR? | 04:55 |
| office | jake, more than windows | 04:55 |
| Chaorain | I'm trrying to install Ubuntu 9.04 on a 1.5 TB Seagate HDD. Installs just fine but won't boot. No error message. Help? | 04:56 |
| rainofkayos | jake: linux is more configurable and modular than windows.. its easier to 'secure' | 04:56 |
| IndyGunFreak | RAMBO: i'd say theres a really good chance of it.. windows likes to do its own thing w/ the MBR.. but iv'e got no W7 experience | 04:56 |
| pooq | RAMBO, yes | 04:56 |
| RAMBO | Pooq: How do I prevent that? i like my vista and ubuntu to work. | 04:56 |
| rainofkayos | depends on the level of security your talking... but linux is usually able to be way more secure than windows | 04:56 |
| office | Here you can go crazy | 04:57 |
| IndyGunFreak | Chaorain: are you tryingt o put it on an external drive? | 04:57 |
| rainofkayos | but SElinux is annoying | 04:57 |
| pooq | install vista first | 04:57 |
| jimuntu | You have to install windows first then linux | 04:57 |
| maco | jake: assuming you run as a normal user and not as root at all times, dont share your password, etc...pretty secure | 04:57 |
| Chaorain | IngyGunFreak, No Internal SATA | 04:57 |
| pooq | that is the easiest way to do it | 04:57 |
| RAMBO | pooq: I got my lappy with vista, then installed ubuntu second. | 04:57 |
| jake | cool Im kind of new to the system | 04:57 |
| rainofkayos | me 2 | 04:57 |
| maco | jake: no worries about drive by downloads and such | 04:57 |
| IndyGunFreak | Chaorain: is it partitioning the drive properly? | 04:57 |
| pooq | oh, you want to add win7? | 04:58 |
| IndyGunFreak | and installing ok? | 04:58 |
| jake | what about viruses | 04:58 |
| pooq | as a third os? | 04:58 |
| rainofkayos | not really | 04:58 |
| agoole | how do I download and install a source from the repos ? | 04:58 |
| IndyGunFreak | !virus | jake | 04:58 |
| ubottu | jake: A/V software is available, however read this to understand why Linux does not have a virus problem: http://librenix.com/?inode=21 | 04:58 |
| rainofkayos | viruses are usually built for windows being that its so much more popular | 04:58 |
| office | jake, no viruses | 04:58 |
| pumpkinseed | hello. i'm having sound issues on jaunty 9.04 64bit with a sound blaster audigy 4. Sound was working fine for weeks and now its not. Sound tests work, but sound is coming out extremely low and gargly. No physical changes to speakers, sound card, etc. Tested working in Knoppix... | 04:58 |
| office | expliots only :) | 04:58 |
| maco | jake: lets go with "at least as secure as OSX because our default browser doesnt do stupid things like running executables that are found inside zips that happen to be downloaded through the browser" | 04:58 |
| Chaorain | IngyGunFreak, looks like it. From old install all the files are there | 04:58 |
| rainofkayos | usually people use AV apps on linux if they share disks to windows hosts | 04:58 |
| IndyGunFreak | Chaorain: so what happens when you boot up, it just goes straight to windows? | 04:58 |
| maco | agoole: apt-get source <package> | 04:59 |
| maco | agoole: you can use "dpkg-buildpackage" to rebuild it after youve made whatever changes you want to make | 04:59 |
| Chaorain | IngyGunFreak, nope just sits there. never gets to Grub | 04:59 |
| rainofkayos | as long as you secure the super user account security ROX on linux | 04:59 |
| maco | jake: essentially, it'd need to be a targetted attack | 04:59 |
| office | Chaorain, you dont install grub ! | 04:59 |
| agoole | maco: the package gspca seems only available as a source, will apt-get source command download it and install it ? | 04:59 |
| light__ | ok guiez, I need flash, should I get swfdec, adobe or gnash, any diffrence???? | 04:59 |
| maco | agoole: apt-get source only downloads the source package | 05:00 |
| rainofkayos | u need to unarchive it still | 05:00 |
| rainofkayos | i think | 05:00 |
| agoole | maco: ok thanks | 05:00 |
| Chaorain | office, I'm just doing the standard install from ubuntu 9.04 live CD | 05:00 |
| jake | wow this system is awsome | 05:00 |
| maco | agoole: i dont know how that package works / why it only contains source code. im guessing module-assistant is needed just like the alsa-driver package | 05:00 |
| pumpkinseed | hello. i'm having sound issues on jaunty 9.04 64bit with a sound blaster audigy 4. Sound was working fine for weeks and now its not. Sound tests work, but sound is coming out extremely low and gargly. No physical changes to speakers, sound card, etc. Sound Tested working in Knoppix... | 05:00 |
| agoole | maco: ok, thats all I need to know, thanks :) | 05:01 |

| dtchen | pumpkinseed: wget -O ~/Desktop/alsa-info.sh http://www.alsa-project.org/alsa-info.sh && bash ~/Desktop/alsa-info.sh | 05:01 |
| rainofkayos | cool beans | 05:01 |
| Chaorain | office, can I do that from 8.10 on my old HDD? | 05:01 |
| dtchen | pumpkinseed: then tell me the url that it generates | 05:01 |
| pumpkinseed | dtchen: okay.. will do... thanks | 05:01 |
| office | yes | 05:01 |
| Chaorain | office, how? | 05:02 |
| pumpkinseed | hmm | 05:02 |
| jake | so linux is really secure is what im getting lol | 05:02 |
| Mike_lifeguard | If I want to adjust the sizes of my partitions, I need to unmount them right? And if they are / and /home then that means I can't be running ubuntu at the same time, right? | 05:02 |
| chuck_ | c0ntract0r, sudo aptitude reinstall dpkg | 05:02 |
| office | Chaorain, i must know what partitions you have | 05:02 |
| dtchen | jake: it's no more or less than any other system. | 05:02 |
| office | etc | 05:02 |
| pumpkinseed | dtchen: i ran the script and then it did its think... said "Done!" and then gave me "Your ALSA information is located at " blank | 05:02 |
| jake | ok | 05:02 |
| dtchen | pumpkinseed: rerun it with --no-upload, and you should see the contents in /tmp/alsa-info.txt. pastebin that file. | 05:03 |
| Mike_lifeguard | jake: you can make it insecure if you want, but it's generally viewed as quite secure | 05:03 |
| [esde] | gparted wont let me resize or anything | 05:03 |
| Chaorain | office, one EXT3 and 1 swap there | 05:03 |
| rainofkayos | what does it say? | 05:03 |
| office | [esde], becouse you must unomunt first | 05:03 |
| [esde] | unmount? | 05:03 |
| rainofkayos | the drive can't be in use.. or dirty | 05:04 |
| maco | dtchen: in a targetted attack, you mean? there are certainly fewer random wormholes on the interwebs trying to swallow up linux machines | 05:04 |
| rainofkayos | umount | 05:04 |
| [esde] | if i do wont i not be able to use the drive? | 05:04 |
| Mike_lifeguard | that's right | 05:04 |
| [esde] | how to | 05:04 |
| office | Chaorain, the names | 05:04 |
| pumpkinseed | dtchen: I've got the alsa-info.txt file | 05:04 |
| office | Chaorain, sda1,sdb1 ? | 05:04 |
| rainofkayos | umount or from GUI not sure | 05:04 |
| pumpkinseed | want me to upload it somewherE? | 05:04 |
| Mike_lifeguard | maco: there are wormholes in the internet? O.o | 05:04 |
| dtchen | maco: wormholes don't care what OS is at the dest | 05:04 |
| [esde] | can someone explain step by step? | 05:04 |
| Chaorain | office, sdc1 | 05:04 |
| dtchen | pumpkinseed: sure, paste.ubuntu.com would be fine | 05:04 |
| rainofkayos | virus is kinda a catchall phrase | 05:04 |
| maco | dtchen: but the software they tend to try to install does | 05:04 |
| office | Chaorain, boot from old disk | 05:05 |
| rainofkayos | for a malious app | 05:05 |
| maco | rainofkayos: no, that's malware | 05:05 |
| maco | rainofkayos: virus is a *type* of malware | 05:05 |
| IndyGunFreak | [esde]: explain what? | 05:05 |
| office | Chaorain, mount new disk | 05:05 |
| rainofkayos | so if i load a script that does rm -Rf /opt/ into your crontab | 05:05 |
| jake | so since viruses basicly dont work on linux attacks have to be manuel or over a network | 05:05 |
| Chaorain | office, already on it | 05:05 |
| rainofkayos | maco: ok greed | 05:05 |
| [esde] | how to resize my Ubuntu Netbook Remix | 05:05 |
| office | Chaorain, and show me sudo fdisk -l | 05:05 |
| rainofkayos | lol agreed | 05:05 |
| [esde] | its like 4 gigs. | 05:05 |
| Mike_lifeguard | is it safe to unmount my /home partition, resize it and re-mount it? | 05:05 |
| maco | jake: there have been ~30 linux viruses over the years. AFAIK, none affect current releases of any major distro | 05:05 |
| pumpkinseed | dtchen: http://paste.ubuntu.com/168393/ | 05:05 |
| rainofkayos | wait aren't you using like a sdram card for a drive [esde] ? | 05:05 |
| [esde] | no i installed it rainofkayos | 05:06 |
| rainofkayos | but on the netbook isn't the hardrive like sdram? | 05:06 |
| === poningru_ is now known as poningru | ||
| maco | jake: though there was one openoffice.org macro thing a year or so ago that was cross-platform | 05:06 |
| dtchen | jake: the same types work. it's just that _visibility_ isn't as high for certain OSes due to the relative costs of engaging in said exploits. it certainly does not diminish the fact that many exploits aren't even OS-specific. | 05:06 |
| === Simulator is now known as GreeneryDay | ||

| ^Ryan | *sigh* my firefox is busted, any idea how i can fix it, everytime i click download's in the option's bit it closes? | 05:07 |
| Chaorain | office, http://www.paste-it.net/public/s685ce4/ | 05:07 |
| dsabecky | ^Ryan: Delete your preferences in your home folder for Firefox. It should fix the issue | 05:07 |
| maco | jake: i wont say ive never seen a linux box get rooted. i was at a hacker con when a friend had "you've been owned" pop up on his screen | 05:08 |
| ^Ryan | Thank's | 05:08 |
| rainofkayos | maco: my point exactly | 05:08 |
| dtchen | pumpkinseed: try: amixer set -Dhw:0 'Audigy Analog/Digital Output Jack',0 | 05:08 |
| dtchen | pumpkinseed: sorry, try: amixer set -Dhw:0 'Audigy Analog/Digital Output Jack',0 unmute | 05:08 |
| jake | but it would be hard to do | 05:08 |
| [esde] | can someone explain step by step? | 05:08 |
| rainofkayos | @ hosting companies roots are a big issue... | 05:08 |
| [esde] | how to resize my Ubuntu Netbook Remix | 05:08 |
| jake | right maco | 05:08 |
| === Cory is now known as Coryc | ||
| rainofkayos | especially those with Pr0n | 05:09 |

| OxDeadC0de | anyone know the name of the disk usage analyzer program off hand? | 05:09 |
| rainofkayos | i agree | 05:09 |
| rainofkayos | du | 05:09 |
| pumpkinseed | dtchen: that did it | 05:09 |
| OxDeadC0de | not du, the gnome one | 05:09 |
| [esde] | conky | 05:09 |
| rainofkayos | isn't there a GUI installed for that by default? | 05:09 |
| rainofkayos | not even conky... | 05:09 |
| dsabecky | OxDeadC0de: baobab | 05:10 |
| office | Chaoraint these drives are as now ? | 05:10 |
| pumpkinseed | dtchen: one question, after I typed that in it said "Playback channels: Mono" | 05:10 |
| rainofkayos | you could use conky too | 05:10 |
| OxDeadC0de | ahh thank you dsabecky | 05:10 |
| pumpkinseed | dtchen: how do I change that to stereo? I have 7.1 speakers | 05:10 |
| dsabecky | OxDeadC0de: No problem. | 05:10 |
| [esde] | can SOMEONE tell me how to make Ubuntu Netbook Remix bigger? | 05:10 |
| jake | cool im righting article on network security so thanx | 05:10 |
| rainofkayos | but i think there is one in ubuntu by default in the menu.. *searching menu* | 05:10 |
| dtchen | pumpkinseed: you don't | 05:10 |
| maco | jake: and dtchen is pointing out that browser exploits are still a concern for things like getting the passwords you type into the browser even if not for taking over your machine | 05:10 |
| Chaorain | office, I'm sorry? I don't understand | 05:10 |
| dtchen | pumpkinseed: it's a toggle to enable or disable spdif | 05:10 |
| pumpkinseed | dtchen: so I am stuck in mono? | 05:11 |
| chuck_ | [esde], if i might suggest download gpated live cd burn iso use it to boot then partition away. | 05:11 |
| OxDeadC0de | rainofkayos: I would, but I'm running in kde, the gnome usage analyzer is one of the better ones though imo | 05:11 |
| dtchen | pumpkinseed: for 50% of Audigy owners, it needs to be muted. yours needs to be unmuted. | 05:11 |
| rainofkayos | =( | 05:11 |
| dtchen | pumpkinseed: no, disregard the 'mono' tag | 05:11 |
| pumpkinseed | okay | 05:11 |
| dtchen | pumpkinseed: it's simply a binary toggle | 05:11 |
| chuck_ | [esde], gparted | 05:11 |
| bullgard4 | What data is stored in /var/log/daemon.log? | 05:11 |
| Callum_ | >_> | 05:11 |
| Chaorain | office, I just did the fdisk -l | 05:11 |
| pumpkinseed | dtchen: one last thing... why in the world did it just spontaneously do this? | 05:11 |
| rainofkayos | bullgard4: daemons log to that log file | 05:11 |
| Callum_ | "Ubuntu Servers" is just freenode | 05:11 |
| Callum_ | ? | 05:11 |
| Callum_ | damnit... | 05:12 |
| office | Chaorain, One of these disk will remove ? or no | 05:12 |
| jake | so they can get system passwords or just passes for social networking sites | 05:12 |
| office | Chaorain, with partition are the /boot partition | 05:12 |
| dtchen | pumpkinseed: some application flipped it | 05:12 |
| pumpkinseed | dtchen: wow... I love linux | 05:13 |
| pumpkinseed | dtchen: thanks for your help though!!! | 05:13 |
| Callum | um... | 05:13 |
| Callum | hi | 05:13 |
| Tyrath | ever since upgrading to Ubuntu 9.04 I got the following error when launching mplayer: mplayer: error while loading shared libraries: libartsc.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory | 05:13 |
| rainofkayos | bullgard4: http://en.kioskea.net/faq/sujet-572-what-is-daemon-log | 05:13 |
| Tyrath | - would anyone know how I can fix this? | 05:13 |
| Chaorain | office, no /boot partition. just installed in root partition | 05:13 |
| office | eh | 05:14 |
| Callum | Ubuntu doesn't want to work when I have my video cards set up in SLI with the proprietary driver...but when I have only one card it works fine | 05:14 |
| bullgard4 | rainofkayos: Why is this separated into a separate log? Why is this separation from syslog necessary or advantageous? | 05:14 |
| Callum | It's all set up properly in the BIOS, and Ubuntu detects both cards under lspci fine | 05:14 |
| office | Chaorain, on with partition are the /boot folder with vmlinuz | 05:14 |
| Callum | X fails to start up with both cards though... | 05:14 |
| rainofkayos | bullgard4: for a lot of reasons i can see | 05:14 |
| rainofkayos | bullgard4: in most cases for a normal user maybe nothing beneficial | 05:15 |
| bullgard4 | rainofkayos: Please name the 3 most important ones. | 05:15 |
| OxDeadC0de | Tyrath: I don't know if it's in 9.04 but in 8.10 to fix that you'd do sudo apt-get install libartsc0 | 05:15 |
| Lancet | hola? | 05:15 |
| rainofkayos | bullgard4: verbosity, redundancy, select cases | 05:15 |
| bullgard4 | rainofkayos: Your argument "in most cases for a normal user maybe nothing beneficial" is not relevant. A normal user will not look into syslog either. | 05:16 |
| rainofkayos | a daemon may log one line to syslog or messages where it logs more verbosely to the daemon log | 05:16 |
| rainofkayos | lol bullgard4 thats true | 05:16 |
| Chaorain | office, you mean sdd1? | 05:16 |
| * AngryBananas is afraid of daemons! | 05:16 | |
| rainofkayos | lol i pronounce it like daymons.. people pronounce it like demons.. | 05:16 |
| rainofkayos | it makes me aggrivated lol | 05:16 |
| office | Chaorain, i dont know ! you must know on what partition have /boot folder | 05:16 |
| OxDeadC0de | I pronounce it day-mons too rainofkayos ^^, is that the correct way though? | 05:17 |
| OxDeadC0de | never even thought about it until now | 05:17 |
| rainofkayos | i also pronounce queue like 'kay'..... people get upset with me | 05:17 |
| rainofkayos | hehe | 05:17 |
| office | Chaorain, sudo mkdir /1 | 05:17 |
| office | Chaorain, sudo mount /dev/sdc1 /1 | 05:17 |
| bullgard4 | rainofkayos: Just throwing 3 catchwords is no useful argumentation. Can you elaborate what you mean by " verbosity, redundancy, select case" in this discussion? I know these 3 words in general English well. | 05:17 |
| Chaorain | office, 8.10 boots off of sdd1, trying to boot 9.04 off of sdc1 | 05:17 |
| AngryBananas | haha. yeah, i was confused about that word for years... i pronounced it "kew-wee". | 05:18 |
| Tyrath | OxDeadC0de: No luck :/ | 05:18 |
| OxDeadC0de | that one for me is "que" | 05:18 |
| office | Chaorain, ok | 05:18 |
| rainofkayos | verbosity because like i said its possible that a process would log more information to the daemon log that the messages log.. the messages is kind of catch all.. a lot of stuff logs to messages or syslog.. | 05:18 |
| Chaorain | office, sdc1 is now mounted to /l | 05:18 |
| OxDeadC0de | Tyrath: aptitude search libarts is anything returned? | 05:18 |
| Tyrath | Did no-one else have difficulties with mplayer when they upgraded to the latest ubuntu? | 05:18 |
| Lancet | #irc://irc.mozilla.org | 05:18 |
| keith | Then you have the crazy English who call a line, a queue | 05:18 |
| WIGGMPk | Can anyone help me out with this? http://paste.ubuntu.com/168397/ I keep getting this problem every time I try installing these packages.. I dont know how to get this resolved | 05:18 |
| rainofkayos | possibly that could help you by providing redundany where you can find info in more than one place like messages and daemon log | 05:19 |
| office | Chaorain, no | 05:19 |
| Tyrath | OxDeadC0de: all I get is: mplayerthumbs - thumbnail generator for video files on Konqueror | 05:19 |
| rainofkayos | and special case like maybe you install an application thats a daemon and maybe it only logs to daemon log | 05:19 |
| office | Chaorain, if boot are sdd1 mount sdd1 | 05:19 |
| calc | keith: well a line is a queue :) | 05:19 |
| office | Chaorain, sudo mount /dev/sdd1 /1 | 05:19 |
| Cryptic_Donkey | 05:19 | |
| chuck_ | Callum, try this http://rmarcus.wordpress.com/2009/02/02/ubuntu-with-two-graphics-cards/ | 05:19 |
| calc | keith: as long as its not a line that you draw :) | 05:20 |
| Chaorain | office, I'm running off of sdd1 | 05:20 |
| keith | calc: Oh, I know it is... but it is weird to call it one. :p | 05:20 |
| rainofkayos | all applications dont log to messages by default | 05:20 |
| office | Chaorain, with what disk is the system with want to boot ?!@!@?!??! | 05:21 |
| OxDeadC0de | Tyrath: "locate libartsc.so.0" it may be aRts sound system wasn't put into 9.04 for some odd reason? | 05:21 |
| office | Chaorain, sdd ? | 05:22 |
| Tyrath | OxDeadC0de: yeah, get this libartsc.so.0 turns up in locate but when I go to that directory the file isn't there | 05:22 |
| rainofkayos | and many applications can be configure to log diff verbosity levels diff places under diff conditions, also applications and processes have different logging behaviors by dafault.. possibly something you installed or are running is logging there. ,, possibly even log consolidation if your running a few apps on one host you may find it more convenient to log to check issues or status from | 05:22 |
| Cryptic_Donkey | I am sticking with 8.10 unitil they eol it | 05:22 |
| Callum | chuck_: I want them to be running under SLI mode... | 05:22 |
| OxDeadC0de | Tyrath: run "updatedb" to update the locate database | 05:22 |
| rainofkayos | Cryptic_Donkey: me too | 05:23 |
| Callum | I did nvidia-xconfig --sli=on and it still won't start X | 05:23 |
| Chaorain | office, I want to boot 9.04 off of sdc1 (new HDD), I can boot 8.10 sdd1 (old HDD) | 05:23 |
| OxDeadC0de | Anyone else here running 9.04 that can get aRts? perhaps it's in a different repo? hmm | 05:23 |
| Cryptic_Donkey | Callum: Are those Nvodoa or ati GPUs | 05:23 |
| Chaorain | office, sdc1 is what is giving me problems | 05:23 |
| calc | OxDeadC0de: i'm pretty sure arts was removed entirely, why mplayer still links to it i have no idea | 05:23 |
| Callum | NVIDIA | 05:23 |
| office | Chaorain, now you are from sdd yes ? | 05:24 |
| Callum | Two NVIDIA GeForce 8500GTs | 05:24 |
| jake | maco im back now | 05:24 |
| OxDeadC0de | calc ahh I see, aRts is old as dirt anyway isn't it? | 05:24 |
| calc | OxDeadC0de: yea and it was always considered crap, even back when i maintained KDE 5+ years ago | 05:24 |
| Chaorain | office, I am running 8.10 on sdd1 right now | 05:24 |
| calc | OxDeadC0de: perhaps your copy of mplayer is old? | 05:24 |
| OxDeadC0de | calc: lol, I agree, it was crap, I never used it myself | 05:24 |
| Cryptic_Donkey | I am whatchin Bully on HBO | 05:24 |

| OxDeadC0de | calc: it's Tyrath's that's broken (I still run 8.10 for now) | 05:25 |
| mudittuli | i have directory with sub directories where all the file extensions have ;1' at the end, how do I mass rename them ? | 05:25 |
| calc | OxDeadC0de: ah ok | 05:25 |
| office | Chaorain, and you want in grub menu all this disks ? | 05:25 |
| calc | Tyrath: are you sure you have an up to date copy of mplayer? | 05:25 |
| Chaorain | office, just sdc1 | 05:25 |
| calc | Tyrath: arts was dropped from jaunty on feb 26 long before the release | 05:25 |
| office | Chaorain, ok | 05:25 |
| Cryptic_Donkey | I am keep 8.10 untill 2011 | 05:25 |
| office | Chaorain, sudo mount /dev/sdc1 /1 | 05:25 |
| Chaorain | office, done | 05:26 |
| Tyrath | calc: I had whatever came on jaunty, and I reinstalled from source (the latest version) and got exactly the same error message :/ | 05:26 |
| mudittuli | i have directory with sub directories where all the file extensions have ;1' at the end, how do I mass rename them ? | 05:26 |
| jaypur | ive tried all things to install ubuntu over vista, and i couldn't get it, can someone help me? | 05:26 |
| Flannel | Chaorain: 8.10 is only supported until April of 2010. You'll want to use 8.04 to be supported until 2011 | 05:26 |
| calc | Tyrath: the current mplayer build for jaunty was built after arts was already removed from the archive, so its a bit weird that you are seeing that | 05:26 |
| office | grub-install --root-directory=/1 --force-lba --recheck /dev/sdc | 05:26 |
| gpryatel | how is the battery life on an asus 1000 netbook compared to my acer aspire 3680? right now i get lest than 1 hr battery :( | 05:26 |
| Cryptic_Donkey | Tyrath: What was the above mentioned error message | 05:26 |
| Chaorain | flannel, I'm trying to upgrade to 9.04 | 05:26 |
| office | Chaorain, sudo grub-install --root-directory=/1 --force-lba --recheck /dev/sdc | 05:27 |
| calc | Tyrath: and i don't see any bug reports about mplayer needing arts still | 05:27 |
| Tyrath | OxDeadC0de: this is what it gives me using locate: /var/lib/dpkg/info/libartsc0.list | 05:27 |
| OxDeadC0de | calc: Tyrath: I get the feeling he still has the old mplayer installed, and when he installs the new one it puts it in a different place, try "locate mplayer" and "which mplayer" ? | 05:27 |
| mudittuli | anyone ? | 05:27 |
| calc | Tyrath: actually not only that but mplayer 2:1.0~rc2-0ubuntu18 specifically states it dropped depends on arts | 05:27 |
| Tyrath | OxDeadC0de: nope, I installed the latest from source | 05:27 |
| calc | Tyrath: you installed mplayer from source? | 05:28 |
| Tyrath | calc: bizarre, what should I do? | 05:28 |
| Tyrath | calc: yes | 05:28 |
| calc | Tyrath: that is your problem then | 05:28 |
| calc | Tyrath: you aren't using the ubuntu version | 05:28 |
| Tyrath | calc: not really, because when I upgraded to jaunty I had the same problem | 05:28 |
| chuck_ | Callum, do not know how to do sli but i have 2 radeon cards running so it is possible in ubuntu | 05:28 |
| calc | Tyrath: you need to figure out how to recompile it without arts support | 05:28 |
| Chaorain | office, http://www.paste-it.net/public/re96d9b/ | 05:28 |
| Tyrath | calc: actually | 05:28 |
| Callum | ok | 05:28 |
| poet | my Macbook (late 2008) is having a problem with the Jaunty amd64 live cd. It boots into it just fine, but when I attempt to start ubuntu or install it, an error message pops up and the screen gets stuck at black. Any udeas? | 05:28 |
| Tyrath | calc: come to think of it I reinstalled from source before upgrading to jaunty | 05:29 |
| Tyrath | calc: I had to do that to be able to play m2ts files on mplayer | 05:29 |
| Cryptic_Donkey | !pastebin }| | 05:29 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about pastebin } | 05:29 |
| calc | Tyrath: so recompile | 05:29 |
| Chaorain | office, I mounted to l(L) not 1(#) | 05:29 |
| Cryptic_Donkey | !pastebin | poet | 05:29 |
| ubottu | poet: pastebin is a service to post multiple-lined texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu.com (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the channel topic) | 05:29 |
| calc | Tyrath: and make sure arts support is disabled and that should fix it | 05:29 |
| Tyrath | calc: from source? I did after installing jaunty again | 05:29 |
| Tyrath | calc: ah k | 05:29 |
| Tyrath | calc: I'll try, thanks | 05:29 |
| calc | ok | 05:29 |

| office | Chaorain, ls -l /1/boot | 05:30 |
| Tyrath | calc: actually calc, do I have to uninstall before I reinstall? | 05:31 |
| Chaorain | office, http://www.paste-it.net/public/c25780a/ | 05:31 |
| Tyrath | calc: if I do, how do I get rid of mplayer installed from source? | 05:32 |
| Chaorain | office, thanks for putting up with me being such a newb | 05:32 |
| office | Chaorain, sudo cat /1/boot/grub/menu.lst | 05:32 |
| Cryptic_Donkey | poet: paste bin is for debuuging purposes ie debugging scripts and problems related to certian aspects of the operating system ie problems with xorg and arts etc | 05:32 |

| bullgard4 | How to swtch off Samba (nmbd and smbd) conveniently temporarily? (I would like to test what traffic remains between two Ubuntu computers in a LAN.) | 05:34 |
| office | Chaorain, L | 05:34 |
| ziroday | bullgard4: sudo /etc/init.d/samba stop | 05:34 |
| damagedprince | how do i cinnect to vbox channel | 05:34 |
| office | Chaorain, /L | 05:34 |
| calc | Tyrath: you can't easily get rid of things installed from source, which is one of the big reasons to never do that, you will just have to install over the top again and hope it works | 05:34 |
| office | Chaorain, cat /l/boot/grub/menu.lst | 05:35 |
| calc | Tyrath: generally using packages is much a better idea :) | 05:35 |
| ziroday | bullgard4: or sudo service samba stop | 05:35 |
| calc | Tyrath: or set it up to install into a subdir under /opt | 05:35 |
| office | Chaorain, copy and paste this line | 05:35 |
| Chaorain | office, http://www.paste-it.net/public/c9600e4/ | 05:35 |
| Chaorain | office, http://www.paste-it.net/public/c9600e4/ | 05:35 |
| poet | is there any way to get verbose or debug output from the LiveCD? | 05:35 |
| Tyrath | calc: yeah, I know, but generally they take off so many features... | 05:35 |
| damagedprince | i need help with vbox | 05:35 |
| Tyrath | calc: I also use checkinstall - don't know how that changes things... | 05:35 |
| ziroday | poet: what area? | 05:35 |
| bullgard4 | ziroday: How long will your command be effective? Will it perpetuate even after a restart of the computer? | 05:35 |
| * calc just uses totem to play m2ts files | 05:35 | |
| calc | Tyrath: doesn't checkinstall produce a package you install? | 05:36 |
| Tyrath | calc: maybe cause it installs in a package form it's better? i don't know | 05:36 |
| office | Chaorain, it's ok | 05:36 |
| ziroday | bullgard4: no, it will remain until you either turn samba back on or restart your computer | 05:36 |
| Tyrath | calc: yep | 05:36 |
| poet | ziroday: I'm trying to narrow down reasons why the LiveCD doesn't work correctly on my Macbook | 05:36 |
| Chaorain | office, so try it? | 05:36 |
| ziroday | poet: bootup? | 05:36 |
| calc | Tyrath: yea then you can just remove the package that is much better than just doing a regular install | 05:36 |
| office | Chaorain, then set in bios this disk to first to boot | 05:36 |
| bullgard4 | ziroday: Thank you very much for your help. | 05:36 |
| poet | ziroday: bootup is fine, but starting the install or LiveCD fails | 05:36 |
| calc | Tyrath: regular make install just copies directly into your filesystem which then it is hard to remove | 05:36 |
| Tyrath | calc: oh? how do I do that? | 05:36 |
| ziroday | poet: wait, so it boots into the livecd environment just fine but you can't start the installer? | 05:37 |
| calc | Tyrath: either use a package manager or dpkg --purge (package name) | 05:37 |
| Chaorain | office, K. If I'm not back in 15 min it went ok | 05:37 |
| office | Chaorain, or unplug another disk.. save only the new | 05:37 |
| Tyrath | calc: I just typed make uninstall and make clean (to get rid of the installation files for the reconfigure | 05:37 |
| m_ | i have problem to do visual effect extra | 05:37 |

| m_ | please help me | 05:38 |
| Tyrath | calc: so basically checkinstall allows me to make .deb files then? | 05:38 |
| poet | zirodoay: the installer AND LiveCD will start, but an error message on the console pops up (disappears too quickly to read) and then the screen just hangs black | 05:38 |

| civpro | i got a Geforce 8300 and im not sure if its the monitor or the graphics card that is coming up "mode is not supported, is there a place that i can force the monitor to display a certain ratio? | 05:41 |
| civpro | im using a samsung 52in lcd tv | 05:42 |
| civpro | any advice would be appreciated | 05:42 |
| tesseracter | civpro, what drivers are you using? | 05:42 |
| billybigrigger_ | civpro::: try nvidia-xconfig | 05:43 |
| civpro | tess, i have no idea, when i boot up im just getting "mode is not supported" on the screen | 05:43 |
| billybigrigger_ | civpro::: might have to install it | 05:43 |
| civpro | billy ok | 05:43 |
| newuser | what size for linux swap file. CPU= Intel quad core q6600 with 2 gb ram. Should swap be 2gb or greater? | 05:43 |
| billybigrigger_ | civpro::: manually edit your xorg.conf | 05:43 |
| billybigrigger_ | civpro::: if you can't even boot, its trying to use a resolution that your monitor doesn't support | 05:44 |
| civpro | where is xorg.conf located at, the /etc directory? | 05:44 |
| billybigrigger_ | civpro::: /etc/X11/xorg.conf | 05:44 |
| office | billybigrigger_, probably he dont know how edit xorg.conf | 05:44 |
| tesseracter | civpro, xorg.conf is the thing that determines the resolution of the monitor, but that is a messy file to edit. nvidia has a autoconfig program called nvidia-xconfig that usually works mell | 05:44 |
| civpro | billy, thanks | 05:44 |
| bullgard4 | newuser: swap=2GB is enough. | 05:44 |
| calc | Tyrath: it sounds like you said that was what it did | 05:44 |
| billybigrigger_ | civpro::: np | 05:44 |
| civpro | also i tried sudo gedit but its not working either | 05:44 |
| freazer | office: and anyone else that will help.. here's my issue: http://pastebin.com/d31ed638d no matter what I do it only sees the one vg and not the other (I did physically unplug both drives, and one at a time renamed their vg and lv's to different things) | 05:44 |
| calc | Tyrath: i've never used checkinstall any time i've need a package i just make my own | 05:44 |
| billybigrigger_ | civpro::: sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf | 05:45 |
| civpro | i got the server edition installed, what editor by default is installed? | 05:45 |
| billybigrigger_ | civpro::: nano | 05:45 |
| civpro | thanks | 05:45 |
| tesseracter | billybigrigger_, editing xorg.conf might leave him at a command prompt, and while i could manage, it might leave some people stuck. | 05:45 |
| gb__ | hi all | 05:45 |
| repnop | anyone else seeing ntfs-3g write at only 325KB/s when you have over 200GB free? | 05:45 |
| billybigrigger_ | tesseracter::: true but he doesnt have a working xorg to begin with | 05:45 |
| ziroday | civpro: if I were you I would consider installing the closed nvidia drivers, and then using ssh -X to access nvidia-settings and access the tv through that | 05:45 |
| gb__ | did anyone have issues installing eclipse-pdt on ubuntu? | 05:45 |
| billybigrigger_ | civpro::: hold up | 05:45 |
| tesseracter | billybigrigger_, nvidia-xconfig is a better starting point | 05:46 |
| billybigrigger_ | civpro::: my bad, bad habit, sudo cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.backup | 05:46 |
| gb__ | repnop: did you fsck the partition? | 05:46 |
| billybigrigger_ | civpro::: then sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf | 05:46 |
| repnop | gb__: was a clean shutdown etc | 05:46 |
| billybigrigger_ | tesseracter::: he can't boot, he doesn't have X | 05:46 |
| gb__ | still do it | 05:46 |
| repnop | ntfs-3g had this issue many versions ago | 05:46 |
| tesseracter | or, 180.5X drivers... | 05:46 |
| repnop | it's writing to the partition heh | 05:46 |
| repnop | in the middle of a copy | 05:46 |
| gb__ | repnop: works ok here at good speed | 05:46 |
| tesseracter | ftp ftp.nvidia.com | 05:47 |
| repnop | it's a brand new ntfs partition :P | 05:47 |
| Rob235 | is there a program to mount bin/cue files? | 05:47 |
| billybigrigger_ | when did .5X come out? i only have .44 | 05:47 |
| repnop | i've had enough trouble with ntfs-3g i'll be glad to get away from desktop linux for awhile :) | 05:47 |
| gb__ | repnop: lol nope , go back to winblows? | 05:47 |
| repnop | yep win 7 :P | 05:47 |
| mib_ye5sb7tq | Rob235 loop | 05:47 |
| ziroday | civpro: as you can there are many ways to go around this :). What are you aiming to do with this machine? | 05:47 |
| tesseracter | billybigrigger_, #nvidia and the ftp site have latest release, and pre-release, and beta | 05:47 |
| gb__ | repnop: good luck, ur gonna need it | 05:48 |
| t3pleni9 | Is there any folder browser which returns the exit code on return if run from the terminal? | 05:48 |
| poet | does anyone know if the installer error messages are documented anywhere? | 05:48 |
| civpro | ziro, running virtual machines off of it | 05:48 |
| ziroday | tesseracter: please don't recommend people to install the drivers from nvidia.com | 05:48 |
| civpro | would like to have a gui though | 05:48 |
| office | freazer, vgremove keep1 | 05:48 |
| Rob235 | thanks | 05:48 |
| bullgard4 | What does "permalink" mean in https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/network-manager-applet/+bug/105234? | 05:48 |
| tesseracter | ziroday, you would rather have them manually edit a xorg file? | 05:48 |
| billybigrigger_ | tesseracter::: o | 05:48 |
| ziroday | civpro: right, well you will need to install X, press ctrl+alt+F1 to get to a command line, does it appear? | 05:48 |
| repnop | ziroday: well 9.04 was a version or two behind last time i checked | 05:48 |
| office | freazer, its empty group without volumers | 05:48 |
| civpro | ziro, ill have to go downstairs and try | 05:49 |
| civpro | 1 sec | 05:49 |
| ziroday | tesseracter: no, I would rather they installed the closed source drivers from the repo's | 05:49 |
| billybigrigger_ | tesseracter::: don't see the point of using a beta driver when the problem is the current xorg config | 05:49 |
| ziroday | civpro: sure :), you can also install ssh so you can access your computer from upstairs | 05:49 |
| ziroday | repnop: that is correct | 05:49 |
| repnop | i did manual install of .51 on my 9.04 no issues so far. | 05:49 |
| ziroday | !wfm | repnop | 05:49 |
| ubottu | repnop: Common Sense: Just because you can, does not mean you should (and especially recommend to others). Think before you do. "Works for me" does not mean it is ok. The latest version of everything is not always useful if you aim for stability. Please see http://geekosophical.net/random/worksforme/ | 05:49 |
| repnop | didn't fix the issue i had with windows not rendering when a bunch are opened right away though | 05:49 |
| civpro | ziro, ok i have vnc viewer running on here, whats the command to get it up and running | 05:49 |
| damentz | what is ubuntu's policy on new proprietary drivers? | 05:49 |
| damentz | do they backport new amd and nvidia drivers? | 05:50 |
| civpro | just sudo apt-get install vnc-server ? | 05:50 |
| ziroday | damentz: they will sometimes, but not often | 05:50 |
| damentz | 180.53 fixes a lot of issues in 180.44 for instance | 05:50 |
| tesseracter | billybigrigger_, 1, its not a beta, 2, the nvidia installer creates a new xorg.conf based on your video card. | 05:50 |
| ziroday | civpro: mmm, ssh would be better. Do sudo apt-get install ssh and nvidia-glx-180 | 05:50 |
| damentz | and 185 fixes a lot of desktop compositing performance issues | 05:50 |
| mib_ye5sb7tq | damentz envy is likely the best choise to use later drivers | 05:50 |
| billybigrigger_ | tesseracter::: ahh, i use restricted drivers, not nvidia.com's | 05:50 |
| billybigrigger_ | tesseracter::: thats why i have .44 | 05:50 |
| damentz | right, i would just install it myself manually | 05:50 |
| civpro | i installed 180 and it says it wasnt in use | 05:50 |
| damentz | but when a new kernel comes in... it's a pain to reinstall | 05:50 |
| damentz | so i would like it to be in the repo | 05:50 |
| damentz | especially if it's marked as a stable driver by nvidia | 05:51 |
| ziroday | civpro: ah, can you gimme 1 sec please :) | 05:51 |
| billybigrigger_ | civpro::: did you restart? | 05:51 |
| civpro | sure | 05:51 |
| civpro | and thanks | 05:51 |
| civpro | billy, yes | 05:51 |
| freazer | office: that seems scary :-) can I get it back? | 05:51 |
| chaorain | office, hey thanks it works | 05:51 |
| office | freazer, no | 05:52 |
| tesseracter | billybigrigger_, correct. which is easier when upgrading kernels, but harder to figure out if drivers are causing any problems. on a related note, anything above 180.29 has been great for me, below that, and i had problems on my gtx280 | 05:52 |
| civpro | this might help | 05:52 |
| office | freazer, but keep1 its empty group | 05:52 |
| damentz | mib_ye5sb7tq, i just wish they would backport drivers more often | 05:52 |
| ziroday | civpro: okay, have you done mv /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.backup already? | 05:52 |
| office | freazer, its nothing | 05:52 |
| civpro | Asus M3N78 PRO Motherboard | 05:52 |
| damentz | more often than not, new versions of the catalyst or nvidia drivers fix issues than break functionality | 05:52 |
| civpro | ziro, i havent went downstairs yet | 05:52 |
| civpro | that mb has the video card integrated on it | 05:52 |
| office | freazer, stop ! | 05:53 |
| tesseracter | damentz, 180.53 is pre-release, to not *quite* stable, just needs more testing before it can be marked as such. | 05:53 |
| === calc_ is now known as calc | ||
| ziroday | civpro: okay, you need to do sudo mv /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.backup and then sudo nvidia-xconfig | 05:53 |
| ziroday | civpro: I have a similar mobo | 05:53 |
| billybigrigger_ | office::: a little slow eh? hehe | 05:53 |
| mib_ye5sb7tq | damentz most new drivers get applied the the kernel main branch, restricted drivers are outside the development model. | 05:53 |
| office | billybigrigger_, ;) | 05:53 |
| tesseracter | ziroday, not that making an extra backup is bad, but nvidia-xconfig makes a backup too :-) | 05:53 |
| civpro | dont i have to install nvidia-xconfig first? | 05:54 |
| ziroday | civpro: ah yes, that would help :) | 05:54 |
| billybigrigger_ | heh | 05:54 |
| ziroday | tesseracter: forgot about that, thanks :) | 05:54 |
| tesseracter | civpro, if you have nvidia drivers, you have nvidia-xconfig | 05:54 |
| chaorain | My Desktop fan is going continuous. is there a way to controll it? | 05:54 |
| office | chaorain, boot works ? | 05:54 |
| ziroday | tesseracter: no, they are installed seperately | 05:54 |
| c0ntract0r | chuck_ I fixed it. I removed the ens1371, reenabled the ac-97 onboard via8235, and added the line "options snd-intel8x0 ac97_quirk=3" to the end of the alsa-base.conf file Thank you for your help. | 05:54 |
| chaorain | office, Yep I'm in 9.04 right now | 05:54 |
| civpro | ok so sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx-180 nvidia-xconfig | 05:54 |
| billybigrigger_ | chaorain::: bios? | 05:54 |
| ziroday | civpro: and ssh | 05:54 |
| civpro | ok | 05:54 |
| tesseracter | civpro, type nvidia- then hit tab a couple times, it will show apps starting with that string. | 05:55 |
| damentz | mib_ye5sb7tq, but they're still as important | 05:55 |
| civpro | does it autostart or do i have to start them up? | 05:55 |
| civpro | once installed | 05:55 |
| billybigrigger_ | chaorain::: intel or amd? | 05:55 |
| mib_ye5sb7tq | damentz well you should be whining to nvidia not ubuntu devs. | 05:55 |
| ziroday | civpro: once installed do sudo nvidia-xconfig and then restart | 05:55 |
| tesseracter | ziroday, i'll shut up now, since i dont work with repo vid drivers :-) | 05:55 |
| chaorain | billybigrigger_, It is Triple booting right now. Windows/8.10 fan is ok but 9.04 fan is always on. Intel. | 05:55 |
| civpro | ziro, ok | 05:56 |
| ziroday | tesseracter: :) | 05:56 |
| billybigrigger_ | chaorain::: check /proc/acpi/fan | 05:56 |
| billybigrigger_ | chaorain::: ??? | 05:56 |
| civpro | brb and thanks everyone | 05:56 |
| damentz | mib_ye5sb7tq, that doesn't make sense, the ubuntu devs choose when to update their packages or not | 05:56 |
| damentz | nvidia just fixes their drivers asthey go | 05:56 |
| Entelin | ive got a few questions, I use windowmaker, what daemon do I need to have running in order to have the gnome background appear and gtk themes as configured in the control center to appear? | 05:56 |
| tesseracter | hi, every time i go to open a file (the file dialog box?) the application freezes for about 30-60 seconds before continuing an normal. this is extremely frustrating. help? | 05:56 |
| ziroday | damentz: mib_ye5sb7tq:P this conversation is better suited to #ubuntu-offtopic | 05:56 |
| mib_ye5sb7tq | damentz because the ubuntu devs dont update the drivers, thats upstram. | 05:56 |
| Entelin | i have it working at home but im on my laptop elsewhere and I just cant remember what one it is | 05:56 |
| chaorain | billybigrigger_, no files there | 05:56 |
| chaorain | billybigrigger_, triple boot is temporary | 05:57 |
| ziroday | Entelin: gnome-settings-daemon? | 05:57 |
| billybigrigger_ | chaorain::: mine either...was hoping you had something in there hehe :P i don't know what to tell you | 05:57 |
| Entelin | i thought thats what it was, and I did need that but apparently that doesnt deal with the background | 05:57 |
| billybigrigger_ | chaorain::: i have my cpu overclocked so i run all my fans all the time, cpu fan full out all the time, and the 120mm and 140mm case fans at low to med all the time, but the case fans have a 3 speed switch so...ya i dunno what to tell you :P | 05:58 |
| chaorain | billybigrigger_, thanks anyway | 05:58 |
| damentz | mib_ye5sb7tq, right, so they package newer/better versions so users don't have to use envy | 05:58 |
| billybigrigger_ | chaorain::: i see you fixed your boot problem? | 05:59 |

| DShepherd | whats the ubuntu room for the kernel team? | 05:59 |
| ziroday | damentz: ubuntu is not rolling release | 05:59 |
| chaorain | billybigrigger_, yep. now in 9.04 | 05:59 |
| ziroday | bullgard4: it is a link that you can share with people that will always stay the same | 05:59 |
| fib0nacci | has anyone had any luck opening .xfdl documents or editing us military forms? | 05:59 |
| ziroday | DShepherd: #ubuntu-kernel | 05:59 |
| billybigrigger_ | chaorain::: what was the problem? | 05:59 |
| DShepherd | ziroday, thanks | 05:59 |
| bullgard4 | ziroday: Thank you very much for explaining. | 05:59 |
| chaorain | billybigrigger_, grub did not install properly | 06:00 |
| billybigrigger_ | chaorain::: fun shhtuff | 06:00 |
| damentz | ziroday, hmm ,ok | 06:00 |
| FrankQC | My laptop is dualbooted and I was wondering if: If I accidentally download a Windows virus on Linux, can it be transfered to the Windows partition where it's going to affect Windows once I boot into it? | 06:00 |
| office | chaorain, maybe you have cpu freq changer module load | 06:00 |
| ziroday | damentz: and you need to understand that graphics drivers are _very_ volatile, particularly closed source ones. Ubuntu policy is not to update them unless absolutely necessary. | 06:01 |
| billybigrigger_ | FrankQC::: if you copy the virus from the linux fs to the windows fs then yes, you can infect your windows partition | 06:01 |
| office | then fan goes crazy | 06:01 |
| ziroday | FrankQC: no, as the virus cannot run under ubuntu | 06:01 |
| billybigrigger_ | FrankQC::: but windows virus' won't affect linux | 06:01 |
| billybigrigger_ | ziroday::: don't say that | 06:01 |
| FrankQC | billybigrigger and ziroday: Yeah I know they won't affect Linux, but I'm scared that all the potential Windows-downloaded viruses on my Ubuntu machine get "transfered" unintentionally to my Windows partition | 06:01 |
| damentz | ziroday, hmm | 06:01 |
| billybigrigger_ | ziroday::: no is not the correct answer, a downloaded virus in linux can infect a windows pc if the file/files are copied to the windows partition | 06:02 |
| damentz | ziroday, so amd's drivers must update occasionally then? | 06:02 |
| damentz | nvidia's seem to be ok | 06:02 |
| ziroday | FrankQC: well as long as your windows partition cannot access the linux one, and you don't copy the files onto your windows partition you are fine | 06:02 |
| billybigrigger_ | FrankQC::: unless you copy them yourself, they can't transfer themeselves | 06:02 |
| Entelin | billybigrigger_, they wont effect windows so long as you dont run them yourself, they cant do anything to you if you dont touch them | 06:02 |
| ziroday | damentz: sorry, I don't follow? They only update the drivers if a SRU is granted, reading the SRU guidelines will explain the conditions for the update | 06:03 |
| billybigrigger_ | Entelin::: thats what i said | 06:03 |
| FrankQC | ziroday: My Windows can access my Linux one. | 06:03 |
| ziroday | FrankQC: if you want to scan for windows viruses you can use ClamAV | 06:03 |
| billybigrigger_ | FrankQC::: your fine | 06:03 |
| Entelin | i didnt read the whole conversation lol | 06:03 |
| Tyrath | calc: ok, mplayer's working fine now :D. only I can't play m2ts files :/ | 06:03 |
| FrankQC | So I'm fine even if my Windows partition can access (read/write) in the Linux's ext3? | 06:03 |
| billybigrigger_ | FrankQC::: like everyone else said, don't touch them, it doesn't matter if windows can see linux and vise versa as long as you don't copy the virus to the windows partition | 06:03 |
| Tyrath | calc: but yeah, that's not too much of a bid deal cause I can use vlc | 06:04 |
| FrankQC | Alright | 06:04 |
| FrankQC | Wow IRC is really useful! | 06:04 |
| FrankQC | Thanks a bunch guys! | 06:04 |

| billybigrigger_ | FrankQC::: np | 06:04 |
| Tyrath | calc: also the latest openoffice I downloaded from debs and it seemed to install but didn't show up anywhere | 06:04 |
| damentz | ziroday, ok well sorry, i run exclusively rolling release distributions on my laptop or frozen distributions with frequent backports | 06:04 |
| ohzie | Alright so I added this drive to fstab as rw, and it still mounts as ro. | 06:04 |
| office | FrankQC, http://www.fs-driver.org/download/Ext2IFS_1_11a.exe | 06:04 |
| damentz | ziroday, i wasn't aware that ubuntu had a very strict backport policy | 06:04 |
| fib0nacci | has anyone had any luck opening .xfdl documents or editing us military forms? | 06:04 |
| FrankQC | office: Yea that's what I'm using | 06:05 |
| Tyrath | calc: so, yeah, basically do launch it I have to find a .doc or .xls file and open it then open a new file which is very annoying :/ | 06:05 |
| ziroday | damentz: well ubuntu does do backports, but no backports aren't updated that often (and the SRU does not apply to backports). If you really must have the latest driver the Xorg team have several ppa's | 06:05 |
| office | FrankQC, ntfs-3g on linux to acces ntfs part read/write | 06:05 |
| ziroday | ohzie: are the permissions of the mountpoint rw? | 06:05 |
| ohzie | /dev/sdd1 /mnt/usbfs vfat rw,umask=0000,uid=500 0 0 <--That's my fstab line. I think I did it right | 06:06 |
| FrankQC | office: I didn't install ntfs-3g on Linux | 06:06 |
| FrankQC | office: I only installed it on Windows to access partition | 06:06 |
| ziroday | ohzie: remove the uid and umask lines, and make sure /mnt/usbfs is rw by everyone | 06:07 |
| office | FrankQC, ntfs-3g its in standard install of ubuntu | 06:07 |
| simone | ciao | 06:07 |
| FrankQC | office: What if I didn't enable it, haha | 06:07 |
| Cryptic_Donkey | I just finished the introduction to man | 06:08 |
| FrankQC | office: And even if it was enabled, the Windows virus wouldn't be able to execute in Linux so I don't know how it would be able to transfer from partition to partition | 06:08 |
| office | FrankQC, how they transfer if not executed | 06:09 |
| FrankQC | office: how then | 06:09 |
| ohzie | ziroday, It won't let me change the permissions. | 06:09 |
| wcdl | hey all i'd like to know if there is a way to connect wireless from a network and wired from another one | 06:09 |
| FrankQC | office: I woudln't be transfering them manually haha | 06:09 |
| office | ohzie, what do you want do ? | 06:10 |
| office | mount /dev/sdd1 to /mnt/usbfs with rw for everyone ? | 06:10 |

| wcdl | hey all i'd like to know if there is a way to connect wireless from a network and wired from another one | 06:11 |

| ziroday | alva: delete files taking up space. Your hard drive is full, it has no more space. | 06:30 |
| ohzie | It's a pain in the ass, but it's superior to the alternative | 06:30 |
| unikon | where on freenode can a person get a hostmask | 06:30 |
| ziroday | unikon: #freenode | 06:30 |
| LinuxNIT | brassmaster, well my friend has a 64-bit encrypted network and i cant connect to it... so it seems to be secure for him | 06:31 |
| philipp | how can i read a .img image on linux? | 06:31 |
| ziroday | LinuxNIT: WEP encryption is insecure, no matter what you do. | 06:31 |
| Cryptic_Donkey | ohzie: I think that is our only option on les you can some how image the drive using dd or partimage/ | 06:31 |
| brassmaster | LinuxNIT: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z4rAA21NPCI | 06:31 |
| LinuxNIT | ok i understand its security issues... but that dosent answer my original question | 06:31 |
| civpro | ok so will ssh show the graphic display? | 06:32 |
| ziroday | LinuxNIT: I believe 40 == 64 | 06:32 |
| ziroday | civpro: no, you need to go downstairs for that :) | 06:32 |
| ChrisTwitty | I was wondering can I install ubuntu on a unibody MacBook | 06:32 |
| office | civpro, no | 06:32 |
| LinuxNIT | ziroday, how does that work? | 06:32 |
| civpro | ok brb | 06:32 |
| ziroday | LinuxNIT: no clue :) | 06:32 |
| linutic | hello | 06:32 |
| civpro | thats where vncviewer does come in handy :) | 06:33 |
| sacarlson | Were should I look to find help in getting my Canon IP1880 printer working on a Ubuntu 8.04 Amd64. The drivers from Canon are for 32bit. Google found others with similar printers and problems but not this one. | 06:33 |
| ziroday | ChrisTwitty: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MacBook should be helpful, come back if you're not sure about anything :) | 06:33 |
| dmbkiwi | civpro: you can display remote applications locally if you allow X over ssh | 06:33 |
| arvind_khadri | civpro, you can have it | 06:33 |
| arvind_khadri | civpro, ssh -X | 06:33 |
| philipp | how can i read a .img image on linux? | 06:33 |
| linutic | happy mother's day to everyone ^_____^ | 06:33 |
| Kareeser | Hey guys, I'm installing the Ubuntu Minimal CD onto a USB drive with limited space. What kind of performance hit am I going to experience if I avoid a swap partition altogether? Assuming I don't install GNOME or any other window manager... | 06:33 |
| ChrisTwitty | ziroday: Thanks | 06:33 |
| linutic | anyway, may i ask something? | 06:33 |
| arvind_khadri | !ask | linutic | 06:33 |
| ubottu | linutic: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line, so others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) | 06:33 |
| Kareeser | Let's also assume the computer in question has a decent amount of RAM... | 06:33 |
| ziroday | Kareeser: none as long as you don't run out of ram | 06:33 |
| linutic | i have a problem with my Skype | 06:33 |
| Kareeser | ziroday: perfect, that's what I needed to know. | 06:33 |
| LinuxNIT | ziroday, do you know the difference between 128-bit and 128-bit passphrase? | 06:33 |
| linutic | I can't make a call | 06:34 |
| ziroday | Kareeser: once you're out of ram the thing will just crash | 06:34 |
| Kareeser | ziroday: *gulp* | 06:34 |
| philipp | how can i read a .img image on linux? | 06:34 |
| civpro | still in textmod | 06:34 |
| civpro | mode* | 06:34 |
| Kareeser | ziroday: any warnings in place? :P | 06:34 |
| ziroday | LinuxNIT: err somewhat, passphrase wants a passphrase whilst 128 bit just wants the key | 06:34 |
| ziroday | Kareeser: not that I know of, keep an eye on free -m :) | 06:34 |
| ziroday | civpro: do startx | 06:34 |
| arvind_khadri | civpro, you need to enable X forwarding | 06:34 |
| arvind_khadri | !ssh | civpro | 06:34 |
| philipp | how can i read a .img image on linux? | 06:34 |
| ubottu | civpro: SSH is the Secure SHell protocol. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SSHHowto for usage. Putty is a nice SSH client for Windows; it can be found at http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/ | 06:34 |
| Cryptic_Donkey | linutic: Wpa + psk with 64 or 128 bit pass phrases | 06:34 |
| Kareeser | philipp: burn it onto a CD | 06:35 |
| ziroday | LinuxNIT: feel free to PM the key/passphrase and I'll take a guess at which one it is :) | 06:35 |
| civpro | have to install xinit | 06:35 |
| philipp | yes | 06:35 |
| TheFunkbomb__ | help | 06:35 |
| office | philipp, mouint -o loop | 06:35 |
| office | maybe works | 06:35 |
| ziroday | civpro: have you install X yet? | 06:35 |
| philipp | office please give me the entire syntax | 06:35 |
| brassmaster | LinuxNIT: forums suggest using wicd. That may be an option for you. It supports 64-bit WEP. | 06:35 |
| Kareeser | jeeez, installing onto a USB stick is SLOOOW | 06:35 |
| linutic | Problem with Audio Playback | 06:35 |
| sacarlson | linutic: can you text chat in your skype? I had to change the setting of the default audio card. | 06:35 |
| civpro | ziro, this was server version, so do | 06:36 |
| civpro | i was testign with desktop cd | 06:36 |
| office | philipp, sudo mount -o yourfile.img /mnt | 06:36 |
| josspyker | upgrade 8.04->8.10, network manager disappeared | 06:36 |
| civpro | to see if it was the same issue | 06:36 |
| ziroday | civpro: ah, you need to install X and a DE. | 06:36 |
| linutic | i can text chat..but i'm having troubles with the audio | 06:36 |
| civpro | ok de also | 06:36 |
| office | philipp, sudo mount -o loop yourfile.img /mnt | 06:36 |
| Kareeser | josspyker: try running "nm-applet" in terminal? | 06:36 |
| office | im forget loop | 06:36 |
| office | ;p | 06:36 |
| ziroday | civpro: which DE would you like to install? | 06:36 |
| brassmaster | LinuxNIT: Although if you like your friend, you might mention to them the problem with running a WEP network and fix this issue in a way that benefits both of you. | 06:36 |
| civpro | gnome | 06:36 |
| civpro | thats already installed | 06:36 |
| Kareeser | civpro: sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop | 06:36 |
| philipp | dosent matter | 06:36 |
| josspyker | Kareeser, I will that | 06:37 |
| josspyker | try | 06:37 |
| Kareeser | josspyker: :) | 06:37 |
| civpro | its installing | 06:37 |
| ziroday | Kareeser: I wouldn't jump to that, civpro probably doesn't want/need the entire ubuntu desktop and co. :) | 06:37 |
| linutic | what should i do? | 06:37 |
| civpro | oops | 06:37 |
| Kareeser | ziroday: hm.... good point. | 06:37 |
| civpro | crap | 06:37 |
| civpro | no i didnt | 06:37 |
| sacarlson | linutic: goto in skype options>sound device and try some other settings | 06:37 |
| ziroday | civpro: press ctrl+c :) | 06:37 |
| Kareeser | civpro: ctrl-c!! | 06:37 |
| linutic | ok.. | 06:37 |
| LinuxNIT | brassmaster, the really wierd part is that when i try to connect in Vista it wants me to login with a username and password (which i know his network dosent use) | 06:37 |
| linutic | wait | 06:37 |
| civpro | done | 06:37 |
| civpro | wow | 06:38 |
| ziroday | civpro: do sudo apt-get install gnome-desktop-environment | 06:38 |
| philipp | office... geht a error messge that says i have to enter a data system | 06:38 |
| civpro | ok | 06:38 |
| LinuxNIT | ziroday, the key is a1tks3nuyv those are the characters just not in the right order ;) | 06:38 |
| Eevee | how can I switch back to notification-daemon (jaunty)? can't figure out where notify-osd is actually run from | 06:38 |
| linutic | hahaha..it did work sacarlson | 06:38 |
| linutic | thanks! ^_____^ | 06:38 |
| brassmaster | LinuxNIT: Well, if you've been around Windows long enough, you should know not to expect consistent network configuration interfaces there either. | 06:38 |
| ziroday | LinuxNIT: okay, is it equally jumbled up when in the right order? | 06:38 |
| Kareeser | Eevee: notify-osd superceeded notification-daemon, I believe | 06:38 |
| office | philipp, show me this error | 06:38 |
| Kareeser | Eevee: which means I don't think notification-daemon is installed anymore. double check fo rme :P | 06:39 |
| civpro | ok so tell me really quick, with putty show do i do ssh X? | 06:39 |
| LinuxNIT | ziroday, what do you mean? | 06:39 |
| ziroday | LinuxNIT: its fine | 06:39 |
| tech | anyone know how to setup pptpd | 06:39 |
| pumpkinseed | i swear... why is it that every stupid thing one wants to do in ubuntu is impossible | 06:39 |
| linutic | anyone here who uses eeebuntu? | 06:39 |
| civpro | putty how* | 06:39 |
| Eevee | Kareeser: yeah I already had a look, both are still installed | 06:39 |
| Kareeser | pumpkinseed: unlucky? :) | 06:39 |
| TheFunkbomb__ | can someone help me add unallocated space to my ext3 partition? | 06:39 |
| philipp | office mount: Sie müssen den Dateisystemtyp angeben | 06:39 |
| Cryptic_Donkey | LinuxNIT: The only way you would have to iplement radius in order to have really secure network | 06:39 |
| pumpkinseed | i'm trying to play a movie in vlc and when I use headphones the volume drops practically to zero | 06:39 |
| brassmaster | !flame | pumpkinseed | 06:39 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about flame | 06:39 |
| ziroday | Eevee: you need to install err gnome-stracitella (or whatever its called) | 06:39 |
| office | philipp, i dont know german :) | 06:40 |
| office | philipp, sudo modprobe loop | 06:40 |
| maco | Eevee: gnome-stracciatella | 06:40 |
| Eevee | ehh no way I can just flick something in a config file? | 06:40 |
| Kareeser | Eevee: no clue how to go back to notification-daemon... what problems are you exp. with notify-osd? | 06:40 |
| office | philipp, sudo mkdir /1 | 06:40 |
| ziroday | maco: thanks :) | 06:40 |
| civpro | pumpkin, i prefer 1337 player, not sure if there is a linux equivalent, but im pretty sure | 06:40 |
| tech | I am looking for help installing pptpd. I have it running however the windows client doesn't connect | 06:40 |
| maco | ziroday: two c's or just gnome-strac<tab> | 06:40 |
| pumpkinseed | its 1:40am here and I can't play this viua speakers | 06:40 |
| office | philipp, sudo mount -o loop file.img /1 | 06:40 |
| ziroday | maco: not running jaunty (yet) | 06:40 |
| linutic | anyway..brb | 06:40 |
| Kareeser | tech: what's pptpd? maybe there's an alternative | 06:40 |
| maco | ziroday: eh i have it memorized now after pasting it from a shell so many times | 06:40 |
| tech | Kareeser vpn server | 06:40 |
| ziroday | maco: haha | 06:41 |
| Kareeser | tech: it's in the ubuntu repositories. Have you tried "apt-get install pptpd"? | 06:41 |
| maco | ziroday: but you can tell people: sudo apt-get install gnome-strac<tab> | 06:41 |
| ziroday | LinuxNIT: you still with me? | 06:41 |
| Eevee | Kareeser: using dual monitors, and the notifications show up on the one I look at about 10% of the time because I don't have a top panel. proposed solution appears to be gconf to make them follow focus, which is inconsistent with the default and still not what I want | 06:41 |
| LinuxNIT | still here | 06:41 |
| tech | Kareeser yes I have it installed, and followed the instructions to do chap secrets and all, however the windows client doesn't seem to see it | 06:41 |
| Kareeser | Eevee: Ah, right, that's a "design feature"... kinda dumb, eh? | 06:41 |
| TheFunkbomb__ | can someone help me add unallocated space to my ext3 partition? | 06:41 |
| ziroday | LinuxNIT: you want WEP 40/128-bit key | 06:42 |
| Eevee | Kareeser: also the queuing is painful when an app spits out several rapid-fire (such as mashing next-song more than a couple times) | 06:42 |
| pumpkinseed | civpro: fantastic, but I'm not going to install a new piece of software especially dedicated to playing movies at night on headphones as not to wake my neighbors. call me picky but I would imagine VLC could fulfill the task of playing movie audio via headphones at a decent db | 06:42 |
| civpro | pumpkin, can i make a suggestion to you? | 06:42 |
| Eevee | Kareeser: yeah I don't really understand why they can't just be "near the tray", whatever that may mean | 06:42 |
| Kareeser | tech: I'm no help there, sorry. | 06:42 |
| pumpkinseed | shoot | 06:42 |
| civpro | xbmc kicks ass, not only for music, but for movies also | 06:42 |
| pumpkinseed | oh yeah! | 06:42 |
| civpro | no codec installs to worry about | 06:42 |
| Kareeser | Eevee: Apparently, it's the place where it'll be least obtrusive. which makes sense, in a way | 06:42 |
| lwizardl | I was wondering generally what does a traditional server (in a rack server case like 1U or 2U) cost to run in electricity ? | 06:42 |
| pumpkinseed | i actually have xbmc installed | 06:42 |
| brassmaster | pumpkinseed: Does it happen on every file you use? | 06:42 |
| pumpkinseed | hehe | 06:42 |
| civpro | i have it installed on my xbox | 06:42 |
| Kareeser | Eevee: As for dual-monitors, they just haven't gotten around to that. I'd love to move mine to my secondary monitor too...!! | 06:42 |
| pumpkinseed | that program IS awesome! | 06:43 |
| civpro | yes | 06:43 |
| LinuxNIT | ziroday, if i choose that then the connect/ok button stays greyed out | 06:43 |
| ziroday | lwizardl: this isn't the right place to ask. ##hardware or #ubuntu-offftopic | 06:43 |
| pumpkinseed | brassmaster: first time I've actually tried | 06:43 |
| philipp | WARNING: All config files need .conf: /etc/modprobe.d/madwifi, it will be ignored in a future release. office | 06:43 |
| ziroday | LinuxNIT: hmph | 06:43 |
| LinuxNIT | ziroday, if i choose 128-passphrase it fails to connect | 06:43 |
| Eevee | Kareeser: well they're so unobtrusive that now I never see them 8) my second monitor usually has a fullscreen terminal on it, so I just have a black bubble with white text show up on a black window with white text | 06:43 |
| Cryptic_Donkey | ziroday: LinuxNIT the most secure ilpementation of wifi is wpa with psk and a 64 to 128 bit passphrase | 06:43 |

| LinuxNIT | Cryptic_Donkey, im not concerned with what is the most secure, i just want to know why i can not connect to my friends network | 06:44 |
| pumpkinseed | probably because I have 7.1 speakers | 06:44 |
| ziroday | LinuxNIT: you sure you typed in all 10 chars? | 06:44 |
| LinuxNIT | yes | 06:44 |
| Kareeser | Eevee: I do wish that there would be at least some sort of config file to let us move it around... even something messy like that would be better than what's there now | 06:44 |
| office | philipp, do next what i write | 06:44 |
| civpro | are you using line out or speaker out pumpkin? | 06:44 |
| ziroday | Cryptic_Donkey: thank you, I'm sure by now we have hit LinuxNIT over the head enough about it | 06:44 |
| brianski | this might not be the right channel, but does anyone know how i can replace a few files on an iso with updated versions? | 06:44 |
| philipp | he says i have to enter a data system office | 06:44 |
| ziroday | Kareeser: that is planned for karmic | 06:44 |
| Eevee | Kareeser: well, doing the right thing with no config is fine, as long as it actually does the right thing | 06:45 |
| LinuxNIT | its not my network, im not the administrator | 06:45 |
| Kareeser | ziroday: sweeeeet. 5 months to go. | 06:45 |
| civpro | ya 7.1 is non amplified, because it has an external amp, headsets need line out | 06:45 |
| philipp | office no a data system type | 06:45 |
| Kareeser | Eevee: indeed. | 06:45 |
| ziroday | LinuxNIT: umm, I'm not really sure sorry, that should work (and works over here). Only other idea I have is wicd | 06:45 |
| pumpkinseed | god... this is uber stupid. I even have the "Headphone surround effect" checked off in VLC's Audio Preferences | 06:45 |
| civpro | :P | 06:46 |
| LinuxNIT | hmm | 06:46 |
| LinuxNIT | ok thanks | 06:46 |
| civpro | ok so its xstart? | 06:46 |
| office | philipp, try sudo mount -t udf -o loop file.img /1 | 06:46 |
| Hystoriker | can anybody please help me with getting rid of some installed packages. I cannot remove two packages which were not installed correctly durign a previous installation process. | 06:46 |
| civpro | xinit: No such file or directory (errno 2): unable to connect to X server | 06:47 |

| civpro | let me go downstairs and try again | 06:47 |
| mrec | hi, is there any trick how to enable wireless on a notebook? for some reason the wireless icon disappeared on the panel and I can't get it online using iwconfig either | 06:47 |
| Cryptic_Donkey | yanghui: Please install pastebinit | 06:47 |
| brianski | mrec - maybe you hit the wireless switch by accident? | 06:48 |
| mrec | lan is able to gather some packets for retrieving the dhcp address but the tcp stack doesn't return any data.. | 06:48 |
| brianski | mrec: were you ever online before with this computer? | 06:48 |
| mrec | brianski: nope | 06:48 |
| mrec | yes | 06:48 |
| philipp | office... mount point does not exist | 06:48 |
| mrec | but only through wifi | 06:48 |
| yanghui | thanks | 06:48 |
| brianski | so what happened around the time your wireless icon went away | 06:48 |
| office | philipp, did you: sudo mkdir /1 | 06:48 |
| mrec | and ms windows | 06:48 |
| Hystoriker | Kareeser: that doesn't help either. entering it doesnt give any information back, but the problem remains | 06:48 |
| office | philipp, ? | 06:48 |
| philipp | wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/loop0, | 06:49 |
| Kareeser | Hystoriker: nothing at all? hrm. | 06:49 |
| philipp | missing codepage or helper program, or other error | 06:49 |

| pumpkinseed | anyone know how to make headphones play at a decent volume? My speakers are 7.1 so I suspect that may be the issue | 06:49 |
| office | philipp, then i dont know what type of image is this file | 06:50 |
| philipp | .img | 06:50 |
| office | heh | 06:50 |
| Hystoriker | Kareeser: no, nothing at all. i am working on kubuntu 9.04, if that may be of interest | 06:50 |
| Kareeser | Hystoriker: then dpkg believes the packages were installed fully. Have you tried uninstalling them with the purge function? apt-get purge [package] | 06:50 |
| Raf | Hi all | 06:50 |
| Kareeser | Raf: Hey! | 06:50 |
| office | philipp, you dont understand ;) | 06:50 |
| Kareeser | Hystoriker: oooorrr... apt-get install --reinstall [package] | 06:51 |
| Raf | Can someone please help me configure Nautilus so that I can use it as an FTP/SCP program? | 06:51 |
| Cryptic_Donkey | philipp: please install pastebinit and use that to post the files related to your query on paste.ubuntu.com | 06:51 |
| office | Raf, normal | 06:51 |
| Raf | office, what? | 06:51 |
| office | Raf, sftp://user:pass@host | 06:51 |
| office | Raf, sftp://user:pass@host:/folder | 06:51 |
| Raf | office: thanks, i'll try it. | 06:52 |
| pumpkinseed | anyone? | 06:52 |
| office | or scp://user:pass@host:/folder | 06:52 |
| Kareeser | pumpkinseed: Have you tried looking in the audio preferences? | 06:52 |
| pumpkinseed | yes..... | 06:52 |
| Kareeser | pumpkinseed: sorry, not audio preferences... I mean, double clicking the audio icon | 06:52 |
| pumpkinseed | every single thing is up all the way | 06:52 |
| Kareeser | pumpkinseed: since the headphone channel is on a different slider | 06:52 |
| Kareeser | pumpkinseed: you'd want to turn it down... if it's too loud... | 06:52 |
| pumpkinseed | sound works fine, it just plays super low when I plug in headphones | 06:53 |
| Cryptic_Donkey | pumpkinseed: Please stae your issue clearly so that others in the cahnnel may better assist you. | 06:53 |
| Hystoriker | Kareeser: nothing of it works, both times the apt-get returns that no dir file was speciefied and thus it cannot go on | 06:53 |
| Raf | office: no... | 06:53 |
| Raf | office: I need to set it up for | 06:53 |
| Raf | wait | 06:53 |
| Raf | query office | 06:53 |
| Kareeser | Hystoriker: can you paste the error into a pastebin so we can see it? | 06:53 |
| Kareeser | Hystoriker: brb, ask someone else for a while, sorry!! | 06:54 |
| pumpkinseed | here is the clearest I can state this: I am running Ubuntu 9.04 64bit. I have a Sound Blaster Audigy 4 and 7.1 Speakers. My daemon.conf file is set to 8channel output and my speakers work fine at 7.1, but when I plug in headphones (tested several) the audio output is quiet as a moust (you can hear the audio, but barely). Its late here and I'd like to watch a movie... can anyone help. | 06:55 |
| === perscitus is now known as Guest4570 | ||
| pumpkinseed | moust = mouse | 06:55 |
| pumpkinseed | Kareeser: By the way, just for the record, double-clicking the audio icon (at least in ubuntu 9.04) mutes the sound. Again, the audio speaker icon next to the time up top on the screen.... if you double click it, you MUTE your sound. | 06:57 |

| ubottu | MaGicMaX1: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..." Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out? | 06:57 |
| === Guest4570 is now known as perscitus | ||
| fermulator | MaGicMaX1: What's the Q? | 06:58 |
| MaGicMaX1 | ok well im noob to wine, i would like to run WoW with it, i have it installed on my windows install, i hear i need to install it with wine, how do i do that? | 06:58 |
| perscitus | Anyone know the command to turn off join/leave messages in xchat2? | 06:58 |
| pumpkinseed | anyone on the headphone issue? | 06:58 |
| pumpkinseed | or should I format my hard drive and install windows | 06:58 |
| Cryptic_Donkey | MaGicMaX1: Please check the wine apdata base at winehq.org | 06:59 |
| m3ment0_ | quick question guys: when you install a package (apt-get) and it comes up with an ncurses thing that asks you questions (do you want to enable this service ect)... how can you get back to that config? apt-get reintall doesn't do it, uninstall/install doesn't | 06:59 |
| fermulator | MaGicMaX1: This is your best bet to start: have a read @ https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WorldofWarcraft | 07:00 |
| sexcopter1 | hi, is anyone finding pulseaudio is constantly eating cpu (whether audio is playing or not)? It's sitting on around 30-40% for me on a 1.6gig Pentium M laptop. | 07:00 |
| Eevee | pumpkinseed: did you unhide all the sliders in volume control? | 07:00 |
| fermulator | sexcopter1: I have ubuntu 9.04 running on an older Athlon XP 3200+ system, and I find it eats 15% CPU while in use (playing audio), but very little while not playing audio | 07:01 |
| lflashlnzl | is there a way to stop xchat showing when people join and leaving rooms? | 07:01 |
| fermulator | (figured it was normal) | 07:01 |
| pumpkinseed | eevee: yes | 07:01 |
| MaGicMaX1 | fermulator: thx for the link, ill take a look | 07:01 |
| sexcopter1 | fermulator: hmm. do you have it set up for network sound (ie sending audio to another computer on a lan)? | 07:01 |
| m_ | somebuddy help to my visual effect extra | 07:01 |
| Flannel | lflashlnzl: Yeah, right click the tab (the channel tab) and then there's an option for it in one of the menus (properties or something?) | 07:02 |
| doc|work | hey. I'm trying to use the command line minimal install of ubuntu on an epia box but it's not recognising the network driver. Anyone come across this/ | 07:02 |
| Datz1 | Hello, Wikipedia used to have a table with versions and the dates they are supported until. I don't see it now for ubuntu. Is there a time table such as this elsewhere? | 07:02 |
| doc|work | ? | 07:02 |
| fermulator | sexcopter1: no, it's default config stuff. | 07:02 |
| perscitus | Is it possible to move panels in Jaunty? it seems normal dragging of panels dont work anymore | 07:02 |
| Eevee | m3ment0_: might be dpkg --reconfigure but I'm not sure | 07:02 |
| Eevee | perscitus: alt-drag | 07:03 |
| lflashlnzl | Flannel, thanks found it, getting sick of so many people leaving and join | 07:03 |
| fermulator | perscitus: hold ALT and move | 07:03 |
| sexcopter1 | fermulator: ok, I have the whole network thing going on, which may compound things. thanks anyhow | 07:03 |
| === hateball1 is now known as hateball | ||
| perscitus | fermulator -> what about panel items? | 07:03 |
| Datz1 | I wonder if someone deleted the wikipedia graph timetable recently...I will have to see if I can undo it. | 07:03 |
| fermulator | sexcopter1: oh sorry, ya i don't have any experience with that, but at least you know to expect SOME usage during playback | 07:03 |
| iceroot | !release | Datz1 | 07:03 |
| ubottu | Datz1: Ubuntu releases a new version every 6 months. Each version is supported for 18 months to 5 years. More info at http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/releases & http://wiki.ubuntu.com/TimeBasedReleases | 07:03 |
| perscitus | fermulator -> ioops ignore hat | 07:04 |
| fermulator | perscitus: right click, "unlock", right click, "move" | 07:04 |
| fermulator | ;0 | 07:04 |

| Datz1 | iceroot, thanks | 07:04 |
| Gate | I have an XP/Ubuntu x86/Ubuntu x64 triple boot install, can anyone direct me to a resource or tell me if it is possible to use the debian automagic kernels settings in menu.lst to maintain the GRUB entries for both Ubuntu installs? | 07:04 |
| m3ment0_ | Eevee: ty | 07:04 |
| fermulator | Gate: I have tip for you | 07:04 |
| doc|work | Kareeser: I have no clue :) It's an old box I bought second hand, how do I find out? | 07:05 |
| fermulator | Gate: For my "multiple" installations of OS .. I use the "boot master" method. Create an extra 128MB (or similar size) ext2 partition. | 07:05 |
| hateball | What's the proper way to restart network-manager in Jaunty? | 07:05 |
| perscitus | Gate -> Why 32 and 64bit Ubuntu? | 07:05 |
| fermulator | Gate: copy the entire /boot contents from your latest disto (whichever one contains the version of grub you want to use) | 07:05 |
| Datz1 | iceroot: Are releases always updateable through download? | 07:06 |
| Flannel | Datz1: Yes. | 07:06 |
| iceroot | Datz1: update and upgrade, yes | 07:06 |
| fermulator | Gate: modify the "boot master" grub to only contain your OS entries using "chainloader" | 07:06 |
| Flannel | !upgrade | Datz1 | 07:06 |
| ubottu | Datz1: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes - see also http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/upgrading | 07:06 |
| nmvictor | hateball:maybe at the terminal,some commands would do | 07:06 |
| Kareeser | doc|work: lspci -v | 07:06 |
| Gate | 32 bit for normal operations, and I am experimenting with x64 still (certain things weren't up to par the last time I tried it, 2 years ago) perscitus | 07:06 |
| fermulator | Gate: and setup that "boot master" grub to the MBR, and the rest of the grubs go to the partition of each distro | 07:07 |
| doc|work | Kareeser: hmmm, ok, give me a few mins to boot up the box | 07:07 |
| fermulator | Gate: make sense? (or do you need more explanation) | 07:07 |
| doc|work | m_: I have priv msgs blocked | 07:07 |
| Datz1 | iceroot: Thanks again | 07:07 |
| Gate | interesting fermulator | 07:07 |
| hateball | nmvictor: Well yes... _which_ ones tho? It used to be /etc/event.d/and so on, but that seems to be gone in Jaunty | 07:07 |
| Gate | Effectively it defers to each distro for its loading options? | 07:07 |
| fermulator | Gate: for me, it's nice, that way your "master boot" doesn't contain all those annoying kernel entries, and gives you a nice clean "OS Selector". | 07:07 |
| === _jmatrix is now known as jmatrix | ||
| perscitus | fermulator -> couldnt he have boot partition? | 07:08 |
| fermulator | Gate: exactly; simple chainloading | 07:08 |
| sbomer | hi | 07:08 |
| fermulator | perscitus: no, because if all distros share the same boot partition, it becomes messy | 07:08 |
| Gate | perscitus: I suspect the versions of Ubuntu would trample each other's Kernel images | 07:09 |
| civpro | guys its still now showing up | 07:09 |
| fermulator | Gate: indeed | 07:09 |
| === glicks is now known as glick | ||
| perscitus | fermulator -> Sounds like bug suggestion. | 07:09 |
| pumpkinseed | what do you call an OS that requires you spending 45% of your uptime fixing bugs (or trying to) and scouring the internet for arcane fixes? Ubuntu | 07:09 |
| Gate | fermulator: could I simplify that method to simply placing a chainload command in my current menu.lst that defers to the x64's? | 07:09 |
| Cryptic_Donkey | I try to stick with the long term support release | 07:09 |
| Kareeser | pumpkinseed: don't be hatin', lots of us have no problems out of the box | 07:10 |
| Cryptic_Donkey | I try to stick with the long term support releases | 07:10 |
| pumpkinseed | i doubt that | 07:10 |
| Kareeser | meh. | 07:10 |
| perscitus | Cryptic_Donkey -> until you buy hardware that only new kernels support. | 07:10 |
| fermulator | Gate: ya for sure you could if you don't want to mess around with creating anothe rpartition and re-installing grub. (CAVEAT: If your 32bit distro ever gets buggered, you'll have to fix the mbr to get into the x64 bit...) but otherwise you'd be OK | 07:10 |
| civpro | how can i use pastebinit, with a log file? | 07:11 |
| MaGicMaX1 | question about runing WoW with wine, ive decided to copy my windows install of WoW over, should i just put it in my home folder? | 07:11 |
| Gate | Thanks fermulator, I am off to try it! | 07:11 |
| fermulator | Gate: sweet! good luck | 07:11 |
| Cryptic_Donkey | I stick to the thirty two bit release | 07:11 |
| civpro | can someone give me a hand with getting my display working please? | 07:12 |
| nmvictor | civpro:you open the log file,copy the contents and paste them at pastebin | 07:12 |
| Kareeser | civpro: what's the error? | 07:12 |
| civpro | nm, its very long and im ssh'ed in | 07:12 |
| Tyrath | I installed the new openoffice.org version 3.1 and am failing at uninstalling it - i installed it via deb, but there's a stack of packages and sudo dpkg -r * won't work | 07:12 |
| civpro | so i can talk on here at the same time | 07:12 |
| clode | Hi all | 07:12 |
| civpro | kereeser, many many errors | 07:12 |
| clode | I've got a quick question about upgrading to 9.04 | 07:13 |
| Kareeser | civpro: right, go to pastebin.ubuntu.com, and paste your messages there. then paste the link here | 07:13 |
| nmvictor | clode hi | 07:13 |
| Hystoriker | Kareeser: sorry, i was away for a sec. look at http://paste.ubuntu.com/168156/, i have tried to translate my german output a little | 07:13 |
| Eevee | MaGicMaX1: well it would have to go under the wine c: drive, ~/.wine/drive_c | 07:13 |
| Tyrath | also, the new ubuntu won't let me move my windows, unless I vouch for no extra effects :/ | 07:13 |
| Kareeser | Hystoriker: that's with apt-get purge? | 07:13 |
| clode | I own a samsung nc10 with intrepid ibex working properly | 07:13 |
| clode | any real risk by upgrading to the last version ? | 07:13 |
| zvacet | Tyrath: sudo dpkg --remove --force-remove-reinstreq package_name | 07:14 |
| Kareeser | clode: minimal. unless you have an intel card | 07:14 |
| nmvictor | civpro:maybe you need to paste only the important part,regarding your problem | 07:14 |
| Kareeser | clode: gfx card, that is. | 07:14 |
| smr904 | does anybody know how to make the screen resolution permanent? - each time I log in I have a 1025x768 res. then I have to set it to 1280x1024 next time i login I have to do the same all over again... | 07:14 |
| clode | hum ok | 07:14 |
| smr904 | any ideas? | 07:14 |
| clode | I will have to check that | 07:14 |
| clode | thx | 07:14 |
| Kareeser | smr904: are you familiar with xrandr? | 07:14 |
| Hystoriker | Kareeser: yes, with "sudo apt-get purge -f" | 07:14 |
| Tyrath | zvacet: and what if it's a bunch of different packages? | 07:14 |
| Kareeser | Hystoriker: blaaah... | 07:14 |
| fermulator | clode: also, if you have ATI you need to pre-configure some stuff before upgrading | 07:14 |
| evilGUI | Hello, I really need some help this has been driving me insane... I have a E5200 2.5Ghz CPU and a 8600GT using the 180 drivers in Jaunty. In VLC or Totem if I play a video from the hdd I get shuttering/choppy video. | 07:14 |
| fermulator | clode: nvidia should work without problems | 07:14 |
| smr904 | Kareeser: heard of it.. but people say do it on your own risk.. | 07:15 |
| MaGicMaX1 | Eevee: i cant seem to browse there... i dont see a C drive | 07:15 |
| Cryptic_Donkey | clode: Please post a review of thae afformentioned samsoung model on th elinuxlaptop wiki so that others may benifit from your exsperiences | 07:15 |
| smr904 | Kareeser: what shall I do with it? | 07:15 |
| Kareeser | Hystoriker: I've suggested all I can think of, so at this point, try posting a message to ubuntu forums | 07:15 |
| clode | ok Well actually I think it's an intel because it's a netbook | 07:15 |
| clode | that I've got | 07:15 |
| evilGUI | It happens with any video format. | 07:15 |
| Kareeser | smr904: you can change your resolution in it from the command line. Now, with that said, you can make a script that'll do that every bootup | 07:15 |
| LinuxDemon | Hey folks! | 07:15 |
| evilGUI | I've reinstalled the drivers reinstalled gstreamer as well as the players :/ | 07:15 |
| clode | Cryovat Cryptic_Donkey : ok I'll do that | 07:15 |
| Kareeser | smr904: like... "xrandr --output VGA --mode 1280x1024" | 07:15 |
| Hystoriker | Kareeser: thanks for your help | 07:15 |
| evilGUI | Any ideas? | 07:16 |
| LinuxDemon | I have a question about mail servers when someone has a minute, pelase? | 07:16 |
| nmvictor | LinuxDemon:Hey dude | 07:16 |
| Kareeser | Hystoriker: sorry I couldn't fix it :( | 07:16 |
| smr904 | Kareeser: I see.. what about edditing manually the xorg.org once and for good? | 07:16 |
| LinuxDemon | Hey there! | 07:16 |
| _newbie4 | hello how are you, etc. i need to reinstall my system ( <3 ) and I was wondering two things: how can i make a list (preferably human readable, at the least apt readable) of what i have installed, and 64-bit or 32bit. 64 wasn't there in 8.10, so I'm asking agan | 07:16 |
| Kareeser | smr904: Also a good idea. You may need to create something called a "modeline" | 07:16 |
| Cryptic_Donkey | Hystoriker: Ypou would be beter server to use linuxquestion.org and pleases search the site before making posting your problem. | 07:16 |
| clode | bye | 07:16 |
| leaphion | problem: how can I avoid that when I put a DVD-RW in my DVD-drive that it auto-starts and GNOME opens it up automatically in Nautilus, so when I'm going to erase it, there comes an error that it can't be ejected because some program is keeping it open? | 07:16 |
| evilGUI | I've been trying to fix this for weeks. | 07:16 |
| smr904 | Kareeser: I think I added one, but it doesn't seem to help | 07:17 |
| zvacet | Tyrath : I don´t know I never try to remove that kind of package | 07:17 |
| Eevee | MaGicMaX1: don't see it where? can't find .wine, or there's no drive_c in it? should be a 'browse C drive' under Applications > Wine iirc | 07:17 |
| evilGUI | mplayer doesn't do this, although wont display my subtitles. | 07:17 |
| _newbie4 | evilGUI: any video? | 07:17 |
| Kareeser | smr904: run "xrandr" with no arguments. 1280x1024 should show up... does it? | 07:17 |
| civpro | http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/ is the log | 07:17 |
| evilGUI | _newbie4: Any video. | 07:17 |
| Tyrath | zvacet: see my main problem is that I can't install openoffice.org3 from apt because it thinks it's already installed | 07:17 |
| Kareeser | smr904: in terminal, btw. | 07:17 |
| LinuxDemon | Sorry, my first time on IRC... do I just blurt out the question or wait to be addressed? | 07:17 |
| _newbie4 | evilGUI: what type of file? | 07:17 |
| Kareeser | LinuxDemon: blurt. :) | 07:17 |

| powertoo108 | Has anyone had ncmpc break on them recently? I get error [11]: problems creating socket | 07:18 |
| Kareeser | LinuxDemon: it goes by fast here, so someone who's free will take you up on your problem, hopefully. | 07:18 |
| podecoet | I just installed jaunty with nvidia drivers, I turned on twinview. I get a second screen correctly, but I cant rightclick it and setup wallpapers or anything - whats going on? | 07:18 |
| evilGUI | _newbie4: h.264 quicktime, h.264 mkv, xvid, divx. | 07:18 |
| LinuxDemon | Thanks, Kareeser! | 07:18 |
| Kareeser | podecoet: can you drag windows to it? | 07:19 |
| evilGUI | _newbie4: The video is really jerky. | 07:19 |
| Tyrath | zvacet: well thanks anyway | 07:19 |
| Tyrath | catch you later | 07:19 |
| podecoet | Kareeser: windows, but not icons | 07:19 |
| evilGUI | _newbie4: Also totem will sometimes crash when loading a video. | 07:19 |
| podecoet | Kareeser: I've added a panel on that display also | 07:19 |
| zvacet | Tyrath: Try with wild card and commanad I posted to you that is best I can think of | 07:20 |
| MaGicMaX1 | Eevee: ok i think i got there by going Applications > Wine > Browse C:\ Drive i see three folders, program files, users, and windows. Im assuing it goes in Program Files? | 07:20 |
| Kareeser | podecoet: that's... odd. I've never heard of that happenning before | 07:20 |
| civpro | think there was some duplicate entries in the last post, here is the most recent one | 07:20 |
| civpro | http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/168451/ | 07:20 |
| evilGUI | _newbie4: The video plays fine then gets choppy and it repeats. | 07:20 |
| civpro | can someone take a look? | 07:20 |
| Eevee | MaGicMaX1: yeah, the layout is just like on windows | 07:20 |
| indian_munnda | hi guys i am trying to install directx 9.0c in ubuntu using wine but i am getting an error "err:setupapi:do_file_copyW Unsupported style(s) 0x144". can anybody help? | 07:20 |
| podecoet | Kareeser: *cries*, I've been battling so many issues since yesterday lol | 07:20 |
| podecoet | Kareeser: maybe I should revert to hardy | 07:20 |
| smr904 | Kareeser: did it - that's what it says: | 07:20 |
| evilGUI | _newbie4: it isn't using much CPU. | 07:20 |
| smr904 | minimum 320 x 240, current 1280 x 1024, maximum 1280 x 1024 | 07:20 |
| smr904 | default connected 1280x1024+0+0 0mm x 0mm | 07:20 |
| _newbie4 | evilGUI: only totem and vlc, not mplayer? | 07:21 |
| Kareeser | podecoet: try the forums first. It's not correct behaviour, so at the least, you can get a bug report in | 07:21 |
| civpro | err that didnt work either | 07:21 |
| _newbie4 | evilGUI: what video driver | 07:21 |
| Kareeser | podecoet: at best, you'll get it fixed :) | 07:21 |
| MaGicMaX1 | Eevee: so once its in there just run the exe as i would in windows? do u know how to make a shortcut on desktop? | 07:21 |
| Kareeser | smr904: that's good... that means Ubuntu detects that resolution | 07:21 |
| Kareeser | smr904: weird how it doesn't select it. | 07:21 |
| LinuxDemon | Right now I'm using a WinXP box for a mail server. I'd like to convert it to Ubuntu, but I have one concern: I have a lot of custom PHP that mingles with the current mail database... hMailServer uses a MySQL database to store user account info and stuff, and while I don't mind re-writing some code, I was wondering if the mail server that comes with Ubuntu stores it's user info in a mysql db as well... and if not, where/how I can edit account info us | 07:22 |
| LinuxDemon | ing PHP? | 07:22 |
| leaphion | _newbie4: regarding listing applications, check out this thread: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=182201 | 07:22 |
| smr904 | I'll try adding the modeline | 07:22 |
| evilGUI | _newbie4: mplayer is fine. | 07:22 |
| Kareeser | smr904: In my experience, adding the modeline only gets Ubuntu to detect the mode | 07:22 |

| Surlent777 | hi; could someone tell me where I could find the XClient script that GDM has listed as a potential session? | 07:23 |
| javyn | hey. can i get the seti screensaver in ubuntu? | 07:23 |
| javyn | so i can help search for alien life while my computer idles | 07:23 |
| smr904 | Kareeser: right. thanks a lot for the idea.. I'll give that a try | 07:23 |
| nogagplz | indian_munnda, don't install native directx in wine. wine has its own implementation, and native breaks more than it fixes | 07:23 |
| evilGUI | _newbie4: I installed Nvidia's 180 from the hardware driver popup. | 07:23 |
| Kareeser | javyn: depends if SETI@Home has a linux client that outputs to a screensaver... chances are, no... | 07:23 |
| javyn | it is a worthy cause i'd like to donate cycles to | 07:23 |
| Kareeser | javyn: but... they probably have a command-line version | 07:24 |
| MaGicMaX1 | Eevee: thx, wow it works! lol | 07:24 |
| m_ | can some one help me abt my visual effect extra | 07:24 |
| MaGicMaX1 | Eevee: no pun intended :P | 07:24 |
| javyn | looks like i need the "BOINC" client to get it | 07:24 |
| Kareeser | javyn: don't worry though, the screensaver is just for looks and doesn't actually DO anything. :) | 07:24 |
| sysdoc | podecoet, have you searched launchpad? | 07:24 |
| m_ | is there any buddy intelligent is avelable or nit | 07:24 |
| javyn | the only one i found in the repo was for KDE, dangit | 07:24 |
| m_ | sorry not | 07:24 |
| javyn | Kareeser: well the seti one does something | 07:24 |
| Kareeser | m_: what's up? | 07:24 |
| indian_munnda | nogagplz: i was installing directx to for cedega. I have installed cedega but it not installing the game | 07:24 |
| Surlent777 | javyn: What's interersting is that it is already statistically just barely short of impossible just for earth to exist, right? | 07:24 |

| civpro | here is a good post | 07:25 |
| civpro | http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/168453/ | 07:25 |
| Surlent777 | that's just amazing in itself | 07:25 |
| civpro | i know for sure this time | 07:25 |
| Kareeser | indian_munnda: you shouldn't have to install direct X... wine supports it natively with calls to OpenGL | 07:25 |
| FloodBot3 | civpro: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 07:25 |
| podecoet | sysdoc: I found alot of people with the same issue, but no solutions as yet, still searching | 07:25 |
| Surlent777 | wow I worded that weird | 07:25 |
| civpro | kareeser, can you take a look? | 07:25 |
| Kareeser | indian_munnda: I've never gotten directX to work with Wine... so I avoid trying to install directX wherever possible. | 07:25 |
| sysdoc | podecoet, ditto... | 07:25 |
| indian_munnda | Kareeser: i was installing directx to for cedega. I have installed cedega but it not installing the game | 07:25 |

| Eevee | MaGicMaX1: ah, good! you can put it on the menu, too; there's an editor in system > preferences > main menu | 07:26 |
| javyn | Surlent777: I don't know about Earth, but I know that the odds of all the events happening to cause life to happen is close enough to zero to be considered statistically impossible | 07:26 |
| podecoet | sysdoc: it's worth noting, that after installing the restricted driver through the package manager, X broke... I had to do lspci | grep -i VGA, and add "BusID 03:00:0" to xorg.conf to make it work again :\ | 07:26 |
| _newbie4 | are you on a straight ubuntu install? | 07:26 |
| Kareeser | civpro: so are you trying to start an X session on the local computer? | 07:26 |
| Kareeser | civpro: or through vnc? | 07:26 |
| evilGUI | _newbie4: VLC works perfect after reinstalling the drivers, totem still does the same thing. | 07:27 |
| Kareeser | LinuxDemon: Totally. Except it's very specific... :( | 07:27 |
| civpro | both | 07:27 |
| Kareeser | LinuxDemon: I think there's a better channel for that... um... | 07:27 |
| Eevee | javyn: ah, but if it hadn't happened you wouldn't be here to observe that anyway | 07:27 |
| civpro | neither way will work | 07:27 |
| evilGUI | Anyone else here have playback issues with a 8600GT? | 07:27 |
| Kareeser | evilGUI: none with an 8800gt. | 07:27 |
| Kareeser | evilGUI: have you tried installing drivers straight from the nvidia site? | 07:27 |
| podecoet | evilGUI: none with an 2 x 8800gts | 07:27 |
| _newbie4 | evilGUI: did you reboot after the reinstall? | 07:27 |
| podecoet | *-an | 07:27 |
| Eevee | LinuxDemon: I know you can hook postfix up to mysql, but I don't know if postfix is in ubuntu server by default or what the schema is or much beyond that it's possible | 07:27 |
| javyn | got the screensaver, but it's a sh file, no idea what to do with that lol | 07:27 |
| Surlent777 | javyn: That's sorta what I'm leaning towards. Statistically speaking, we shouldn't exist. We exist only because of an incredibly precise balance of various factors in the universe. If any of a multitude of things were changed just slightly, we would die | 07:28 |
| evilGUI | Kareeser: I haven't. | 07:28 |
| Kareeser | civpro: okay... how did you install the nvidia driver? | 07:28 |
| evilGUI | _newbie4: Yes. | 07:28 |
| LinuxDemon | Kareeser: Thank you so much!! | 07:28 |
| Kareeser | evilGUI: worth a shot... :) | 07:28 |
| podecoet | evilGUI: Are you getting tearing? | 07:28 |
| javyn | Surlent777: I don't see it like that, but I'm not willing to get into that discussion. Too lazy | 07:28 |
| Kareeser | LinuxDemon: no thanks needed, I didn't do anything :( | 07:28 |
| powertoo108 | LinuxDemon: You might have better luck in the server channel #ubuntu-server iirc | 07:28 |
| Kareeser | there it is! | 07:28 |
| Kareeser | thanks, powertoo108 | 07:28 |
| javyn | I'll just say look up Alex Collier on youtube and listen to him | 07:28 |
| LinuxDemon | Thank you! | 07:29 |
| javyn | it'll be entertaining, if anything | 07:29 |

| civpro | Kareeser, sudo apt-get install nvidia-gtx- i think it was 80 | 07:29 |
| civpro | 899 | 07:29 |
| Surlent777 | evilGUI: I'n not sure what you're talking about, but I use that 8600GT and have no graphical issues whatsoever with Ubuntu, aside from the TTY text getting blurry after I view an image with the framebuffer; only going to X and back fixes it | 07:29 |
| Kareeser | gaahhh! I'm installing ubuntu on a 2GB usb drive!! Why is it installing openoffice!! | 07:29 |
| civpro | err 800 | 07:29 |
| smr904 | Kareeser: hey, I think it worked - loged out and back in and it is the good resolution.. | 07:29 |
| Surlent777 | Kareeser: Office comes with it by default | 07:29 |
| LinuxDemon | shoot, sorry about that... trying to register a nick | 07:29 |
| sriramoman | google docs spreadsheet component doesnt seem to work for me:( | 07:29 |
| sriramoman | in ff3 | 07:29 |
| Kareeser | Surlent777: booooo!! | 07:29 |
| sysdoc | podecoet, I have not had success with the 180 driver I have to use the 173 driver. However I don't suspect the driver but it may be worth some investigation | 07:29 |
| evilGUI | Surlent777: It's just video playback. | 07:29 |
| Surlent777 | Kareeser: Would you rather use MS? | 07:29 |
| Kareeser | Surlent777: on a usb stick, I'd rather use nano ;) | 07:29 |
| indian_munnda | Kareeser: i was installing directx to for cedega. I have installed cedega but it not installing the game | 07:29 |
| podecoet | sysdoc: did it break X? | 07:29 |
| _newbie4 | evilGUI: I'm on an 8500 with no problems, off an ubuntu studio install; it sounds like you added something extra. Are you running a prebuilt system? Who made it? | 07:30 |
| Gate | hear hear Kareeser | 07:30 |
| Surlent777 | Kareeser: I'd rather get a bigger USB stick ;) | 07:30 |
| smr904 | the only problem now (well, it was there earlier too) is the flickering - especially when moving the mouse - I see these horisontal waves.. | 07:30 |
| Kareeser | Surlent777: Need a job first :( | 07:30 |
| sbomer | Hi | 07:30 |
| evilGUI | _newbie4: This is a fresh install, I just selected the drivers like it told me to. | 07:30 |
| Kareeser | indian_munnda: I hear ya... but I have no suggestions at the moment, since I have never gotten directX to work for me... | 07:30 |
| podecoet | sysdoc: you have the same issue as I? | 07:30 |
| _newbie4 | leaphion: thanks, anyway but I just wanted a list so i could reinstall my stuff. | 07:30 |
| civpro | kareeser, any ideas? | 07:30 |
| evilGUI | _newbie4: I built the machine, I didn't have these issues before Jaunty. | 07:30 |
| indian_munnda | Kareeser: oooo , sorry :( | 07:30 |
| Kareeser | indian_munnda: Perhaps you could try the wine forum on ubuntuforums.org? | 07:30 |
| _newbie4 | evilGUI: what version of ubuntu | 07:31 |
| Surlent777 | oh yeah, so does anyone know where I can find that XClient Script that GDM likes to brag about? | 07:31 |
| Kareeser | civpro: yes, sorry. Want to try installing them directly from the nvidia website? | 07:31 |
| evilGUI | _newbie4: 32bit 9.04. | 07:31 |
| === dereine[OFF] is now known as dereine | ||
| _newbie4 | evilGUI: dual or quad core? | 07:31 |
| BlinkyToon | indian_munnda, that would be #WineHQ | 07:31 |
| civpro | um, i am thinking its a issue with the tv not the card | 07:31 |
| sysdoc | podecoet, no it allowed compiz and seperateX sessions to work in the previous ver of Ununtu. However the Seperate X sessions is broke in Jaunty but it is tolerable till a fix come out | 07:31 |
| civpro | i mean i might be wrong but the tv res is at 700x400 | 07:32 |
| evilGUI | _newbie4: Dual E5200 2.5Ghz, should be over kill for sd playback. | 07:32 |
| indian_munnda | BlinkyToon: thank you | 07:32 |
| Surlent777 | speaking of fixes, I noticed they never fixed blubuntu | 07:32 |
| Kareeser | civpro: so the x session starts... | 07:32 |
| civpro | should be a way to force the resolution to change in ubuntu | 07:32 |
| Kareeser | civpro: I thought the log said it didn't :) | 07:32 |
| _newbie4 | ayone know about analog beta drivers for the hvr-1800 hauppauge card? | 07:32 |
| civpro | no it errors out | 07:32 |
| Kareeser | civpro: so... how are you getting that resolution? | 07:32 |
| sysdoc | podecoet, seperate x sessions is actually better that twinview IMO | 07:32 |
| civpro | displays it on the screen | 07:32 |
| evilGUI | _newbie4: I'll try the driver off of nvidia's site I guess. | 07:32 |
| Kareeser | civpro: ooh, the terminal resolution? | 07:33 |
| civpro | yes | 07:33 |
| Kareeser | civpro: that's irrelevant. I think. | 07:33 |
| civpro | ok just checking | 07:33 |
| _newbie4 | evilGUI: did you upgrade any hardware recently? | 07:33 |
| xmount25 | anyone know how to uncompress a rar file(i.e. r00, r01) from command line? | 07:33 |
| evilGUI | _newbie4: None. | 07:33 |
| Surlent777 | xmount25: unrar? | 07:33 |
| Kareeser | xmount25: unrar file.r00 | 07:34 |
| Kareeser | xmount25: it'll do the rest automatically | 07:34 |
| civpro | well i guess this will sound dumb, but i know how to install a driver through windows, but with no browser, and no setup utility, how am i supposed to get it from the website and install it? | 07:34 |
| xmount25 | did that ... just comes up with the help options | 07:34 |
| Kareeser | xmount25: depending on your package, either unrar or unrar-nonfree, it'll have a switch... -x or -e, or nothing at all | 07:34 |
| Kareeser | civpro: one second :) | 07:34 |
| xmount25 | is their a switch | 07:34 |
| xmount25 | k | 07:34 |
| evilGUI | How would I install these? it wants me to be booted without x? | 07:34 |
| Kareeser | civpro: http://ubuntu.kareeser.com/?p=44 | 07:34 |
| civpro | ok | 07:34 |
| _newbie4 | evilGUI: apt-get remove -purge totem && sudo pt-get install totem then tell me how it goes... | 07:34 |
| sriramoman | google docs spreadsheet component doesnt seem to work for me:( | 07:35 |
| Eevee | xmount25: looks like it's just x, not -x. unrar x whatever.rar | 07:35 |
| xmount25 | nice ... yeah it's just x no -x | 07:35 |
| Surlent777 | evilGUI: Note the typo in that command | 07:35 |
| _newbie4 | wow kvirc sucks for looking at, compared to konversation | 07:35 |
| evilGUI | Surlent777: Yeah. | 07:35 |
| Surlent777 | evilGUI: After the dual ampersand, that should be apt-get, not pt-get | 07:35 |
| Surlent777 | ok | 07:35 |
| _newbie4 | ^^ what he said | 07:36 |
| Surlent777 | I prefer irssi | 07:36 |
| Eevee | indeed | 07:36 |
| * _newbie4 [kicks his worthless wireless keyboard] | 07:36 | |
| Surlent777 | nice to look at, and themeable...plus awesome spam/script support ;) | 07:36 |
| evilGUI | _newbie4: Fixed it... | 07:37 |
| evilGUI | _newbie4: oddly enough, I purged it a few times before too. | 07:37 |
| c0ntract0r | Why can't I play mp3s in amarok? i have sound under prefs/sound test alsa | 07:37 |
| Surlent777 | so, no one else has any idea about that XClient Script either, I guess. =/ | 07:37 |
| _newbie4 | evilGUI: gladd to help | 07:37 |
| Kareeser | fianlly | 07:37 |
| evilGUI | _newbie4: Thanks :D | 07:37 |
| sriramoman | c0ntract0r: ensure that xine plugins etc for amarok are properly installed. | 07:37 |
| Kareeser | after like an hour and a half, ubuntu installs onto my flash drive. | 07:37 |
| Surlent777 | c0ntract0r: Get Ubuntu Restricted Extras from Synaptic or Add/Remove | 07:37 |
| evilGUI | Thanks everyone for their input. | 07:38 |
| c0ntract0r | I just downloaded the restricted extras from terminal, do i need to reboot for it to work? | 07:38 |
| Surlent777 | I don't believe so | 07:38 |
| sriramoman | c0ntract0r: thats not enuf | 07:39 |
| valdur55 | how leave` | 07:39 |
| Kareeser | sweeeet. 775MB Ubuntu install. | 07:39 |
| Kareeser | no DE. | 07:39 |
| Surlent777 | DE? | 07:39 |
| Surlent777 | oh | 07:39 |
| _newbie4 | valdur55: just do /guit | 07:39 |
| Surlent777 | nm | 07:39 |
| nmvictor | c0ntract0r:dont think so,only kernel upgrade would require restart | 07:39 |
| Kareeser | but your precious openoffice is on there. :P | 07:39 |
| Surlent777 | hehe | 07:39 |
| zeke | I can't stop the x server and get an old school text only shell. if i try "sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop" I just get a blinking cursor and can't do anything. If i do "sudo init 1" i get a prompt, but there is no local echo and i'm typing in the dark | 07:39 |
| _newbie4 | uhh qs/g// | 07:39 |
| Kareeser | seriously, with no DE, how am I supposed to use it :P | 07:39 |
| Surlent777 | Fluxbox | 07:40 |
| Surlent777 | UDE | 07:40 |

| tech | is there anyone that knows how to use linux server as a vpn server, or do I need windows 2008? | 07:40 |
| Kareeser | zeke: where are you typing that command? | 07:40 |
| nogagplz | zeke, control + alt + f1? | 07:40 |
| sriramoman | c0ntract0r: no restrat required but all libxine plugins for amarok are installed | 07:40 |
| zeke | in terminal | 07:40 |
| Kareeser | zeke: follow nogagplz's advice | 07:40 |
| _newbie4 | hey so anyone know how I can get a cli version of what is currently installed on my system? | 07:40 |
| Kareeser | zeke: you have to drop down to tty1 | 07:40 |
| Surlent777 | _newbie4: I'm not sure I get what you mean | 07:40 |
| Kareeser | Surlent777: you assume I'm smart enough to set those things up :P | 07:40 |
| Myth` | I have an intermittent problem. My mouse and keyboard on my laptop are sometimes completely unresponsive at the login screen on Ubtunu 9.04. | 07:41 |
| _newbie4 | evilGUI: did it work? | 07:41 |
| Surlent777 | Kareeser: hahaha...I have no idea either | 07:41 |
| smr904 | does anyone know how to get rid of the screen flickering (horisontal waves on the flat screen, when moving the mouse around).. | 07:41 |

| Kareeser | Myth`: Heh, me too. | 07:41 |
| Kareeser | bullgard4: Hey, I read about that today! | 07:41 |
| _newbie4 | Surlent777: sorry, maybe in te middle of something. What did you need? | 07:41 |
| Surlent777 | I need to do a fresh install some time...but I need a huge backup thingy to put stuff on | 07:41 |
| evilGUI | _newbie4: came back :/ | 07:41 |
| Myth` | Kareeser: Any luck with a solution? | 07:41 |
| Surlent777 | _newbie4: I mean, I'm not sure I understand your question | 07:42 |
| _newbie4 | evilGUI: cuz why? | 07:42 |
| Kareeser | bullgard4: Unless I am mistaken, that's just the daemon no longer associating your IP address with your MAC address. It usually times out after about 10 minutes. | 07:42 |
| bullgard4 | Kareeser: And can you answer the question which I have put? | 07:42 |
| c0ntract0r | what are the names of the xine packages? | 07:42 |
| evilGUI | _newbie4: odd, all I did was reboot... | 07:42 |
| _newbie4 | Surlent777: your question or mine? | 07:42 |
| Surlent777 | yours | 07:42 |
| Surlent777 | about CLI stuff | 07:43 |
| Kareeser | Myth`: Nope. I get frustrated and reboot. It usually works better on a hard reset, but I can't find any rhyme or reason to it. | 07:43 |
| sriramoman | c0ntract0r: libxine plugins | 07:43 |
| bullgard4 | Kareeser: So I do not have no longer network access, or what? | 07:43 |
| Kareeser | Myth`: Have you tried using a usb keyboard? | 07:43 |
| _newbie4 | evilGUI: and?!? | 07:43 |
| Kareeser | bullgard4: no, it should be fine, and re-associate after you try again. But then again, I could be completely off the mark. | 07:43 |
| evilGUI | _newbie4: It started messing up again :/ | 07:43 |
| Kareeser | bullgard4: unless you are directly experiencing something wrong, I wouldn't worry | 07:43 |
| Myth` | Kareeser: Ya, same thing here. That's so strange. No I have not tried a USB keyboard. Have you had any luck with one? | 07:43 |
| bullgard4 | Kareeser: What should I try again? | 07:43 |
| _newbie4 | evilGUI: which one? | 07:43 |
| Kareeser | Myth`: don't have one, only ps/2 :) | 07:44 |
| Myth` | Kareeser: I'm on a Dell Vostro 2510. | 07:44 |
| evilGUI | _newbie4: totem. | 07:44 |
| sriramoman | c0ntract0r: http://wawan-kurniawan.web.id/play-mp3-with-amarok-in-ubuntu-jaunty-904/ | 07:44 |
| _newbie4 | evilGUI: and please tell me you are using three different files for each program | 07:44 |
| bullgard4 | Kareeser: I indeed am experiencing trouble: I am loosing network access via eth0. | 07:44 |
| evilGUI | _newbie4: I am. | 07:44 |
| valdur55 | Ok. How install Nvidia 96 driver? From CLI? | 07:44 |
| MaGicMaX1 | question guys, is there a keyboard shortcut to open the "System Monitor" ? | 07:45 |
| _newbie4 | evilGUI: totem only? | 07:45 |
| civpro | said no compiler found | 07:45 |
| bullgard4 | Kareeser: What should I try again? | 07:45 |
| sriramoman | valdur55: nvidia 173 works better for me:) | 07:45 |
| Kareeser | bullgard4: oooh. then I am probably not of help here. I probably misdagnosed, sorry :( | 07:45 |
| Kareeser | diag* | 07:45 |
| Surlent777 | MaGicMaX1: Not that I know of, but I think you should be able to set one yourself | 07:45 |
| evilGUI | _newbie4: Yeah. | 07:45 |
| Gnea | valdur55: click on System->Administration->Hardware Drivers, then 'activate' the nvidia driver | 07:45 |
| bullgard4 | Kareeser: Thank you for commenting. | 07:45 |
| valdur55 | How can get Video Card model? | 07:45 |
| Kareeser | bullgard4: best of luck! | 07:45 |
| valdur55 | Activation goes Lagg | 07:45 |
| evilGUI | _newbie4: For some reason VLC seems to be fixed. | 07:45 |
| Kareeser | valdur55: lspci -v | grep VGA | 07:45 |
| c0ntract0r | sriramoman thank you so much that was my last issue! :) | 07:46 |
| civpro | kareeser, said no compiler found | 07:46 |
| sriramoman | c0ntract0r: now is it fine? | 07:46 |
| c0ntract0r | absolutely | 07:46 |
| doc|laptop | Kareeser: sorry about that, bios weirdness. It's a rhine II chipset I think | 07:46 |
| evilGUI | _newbie4: It lags for a bit when the video first gets loaded though. | 07:46 |
| c0ntract0r | it came awake with the danzig wide open LOL | 07:46 |
| _newbie4 | evilGUI: good so it's working... | 07:46 |
| Kareeser | doc|laptop: wow, you're back. what was your problem again? | 07:46 |
| valdur55 | 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation NV25 [GeForce4 Ti 4200] (rev a3) | 07:46 |
| Gnea | valdur55: it can take a few minutes | 07:46 |
| evilGUI | _newbie4: seems that way, for now atleast. | 07:47 |
| MaGicMaX1 | Surlent777: i know how to get to the keyboard shortcutts and create one, but under "Command" i guess i need to type the destination to the program, u know how i get that? | 07:47 |

| civpro | i mean crap, its a popular video card | 07:49 |

| Eevee | civpro: you should try stage1 gentoo as your primary OS | 07:51 |
| Kareeser | arch kicked the crap out of me, twice, today. | 07:51 |
| nogagplz | civpro, what made you want to change to ubuntu in the first place, just out of curiosity | 07:51 |
| civpro | kareeser, dude 6 hrs was dedicated on arch, lol | 07:51 |
| Kareeser | doc|laptop: Oh yeah, I just did that... typing "install" on the boot: line... | 07:52 |
| Myth` | Kareeser: I think I may have found a solution. Try to reconfigure xorg. | 07:52 |
| civpro | nogag, wanted to setup a base os and the virtualization on ubuntu server looked tempting | 07:52 |
| Kareeser | Myth`: maybe. I tried this with Ubuntu, Xubuntu, Crunchbang, and Arch | 07:52 |
| MaGicMaX1 | Eevee: thx alot, i made it CTRL+ALT+S :) works | 07:52 |
| Eevee | civpro: I think you need to install linux-source | 07:52 |
| Kareeser | Myth`: I'm thinking it's a HAL problem, but whatever, I gave up :) | 07:52 |
| Surlent777 | hmm...oh yes, has anyone else found that the Ubuntu USB creator is entirely useless? When I boot from a disk made with it, I just get a prompt that says it can't find the bootimage or something like that, and yet UNetBootin works like a charm | 07:53 |
| Eevee | MaGicMaX1: if you like kb shortcuts, try gnome do: http://do.davebsd.com/ | 07:53 |
| Cryptic_Donkey | Surlent777: I would say xwindows with the xfce de | 07:53 |
| Myth` | Kareeser: I'm not certain, however, I did a soft reset after reconfiguring and everything seemed to work fine. Perhaps just the luck of the draw. | 07:53 |
| civpro | evee, its a driver issue, its not the verson of linux | 07:53 |
| civpro | atleast i do know that | 07:53 |
| Kareeser | Myth`: knock on wood! | 07:53 |
| civpro | gentoo i dont think would make a difference | 07:53 |
| doc|laptop | Kareeser: yep, any idea about net card problem? | 07:53 |
| Myth` | Kareeser: Absolutely, LOL! | 07:53 |
| poet | grub wont install during my installation, how can I check the logs to see what happened? | 07:53 |
| Surlent777 | Cryptic_Donkey: XScript has nothing to do with XFCE, really. I know that it deals with deciding what to load up, though | 07:53 |
| poet | Im using the alternate installer | 07:53 |
| _newbie4 | evilGUI: maks no sense. try to reistnall tem... | 07:54 |
| Myth` | Kareeser: Anyway, I made linux crash 3 times on me the first time I installed ubuntu a few days ago while trying to set a static IP with the wireless TCP/IP configuration utility. | 07:54 |
| Eevee | civpro: haha wasn't serious; old stage1 gentoo had no installer and you got to partition, install bootloader, compile X, etc etc mostly yourself | 07:54 |
| MaGicMaX1 | Eevee: i accidently disabled the shotcut for "Launch Help browser" do u know what it was? :P | 07:54 |
| civpro | http://us.download.nvidia.com/XFree86/Linux-x86_64/180.51/NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-180.51-pkg2.run is the driver im trying to get installed | 07:54 |
| Myth` | Kareeser: Anyway, have a good night. I'm off to bed. G/L | 07:54 |
| Kareeser | doc|laptop: Unfortunately no... sorry :( | 07:54 |
| Eevee | MaGicMaX1: umm, f1? | 07:54 |
| doc|laptop | Kareeser: ok, thanks anyway | 07:54 |
| Kareeser | Myth`: all part of learning linux :) | 07:54 |
| civpro | eevee, i see, trying to make it easier on me heh | 07:54 |

| Cryptic_Donkey | Surlent777: I was giving you amy honest opionin about a light weight de | 07:55 |
| doc|laptop | grrr, the more I try to work on this problem the more convinced I'm becoming it might be time to play with netbsd | 07:55 |
| MaGicMaX1 | Eevee: what does GnomeDO exactly? | 07:55 |
| valdur55 | i am back | 07:55 |
| Eevee | civpro: and it wants the kernel source, which is the 'linux-source' package | 07:55 |
| Kareeser | doc|laptop: no support from the community there :P | 07:55 |
| Gnea | doc|laptop: so install netbsd in virtualbox ;) | 07:55 |
| Surlent777 | Cryptic_Donkey: oh. I prefer LXDE or Fluxbox over XFCE actually, but thanks | 07:55 |
| Kareeser | doc|laptop: any reason you can't use a desktop live CD? | 07:55 |
| doc|laptop | Kareeser: much the same either way really right now :/ | 07:55 |
| civpro | eevee, hrm? | 07:55 |
| doc|laptop | Kareeser: no cd drive and very very slow from usb | 07:55 |
| Eevee | MaGicMaX1: you hit win-space and can just type the name of a program to run it. and it learns, so now win-space f enter gets me firefox. I don't even have an applications menu any more | 07:56 |
| doc|laptop | Kareeser: and that's if it even works :/ | 07:56 |
| Kareeser | doc|laptop: aaaahhh | 07:56 |
| Gnea | doc|laptop: tried netboot? | 07:56 |
| Eevee | civpro: the error about 'unable to find kernel source tree' was yours right? (I should really /ignore joins and parts in here) | 07:56 |
| doc|laptop | Gnea: hmmm, got a link? | 07:56 |
| Kareeser | doc|laptop: Here's some information to go out on... it's not a fix, but a suggestion to help you search | 07:56 |
| petrolman | Am I right that the ATI chip RV770 [Radeon HD 4850] is not yet supported by the radeonhd driver? I get display problems when changing it in the driver section of my xorg-file | 07:56 |

| MaGicMaX1 | Eevee: sorry, whats win-space? a button? | 07:56 |
| Cryptic_Donkey | Surlent777: How Hard is it to become familair with LXDE? | 07:56 |
| Eevee | MaGicMaX1: windows key plus spacebar | 07:56 |
| Kareeser | doc|laptop: I've heard of people downloading packages directly from sources... copying it onto a floppy or some other installation media, and pointing their sources.list file to use it... | 07:57 |
| Eevee | MaGicMaX1: although the windows key is actually 'super' | 07:57 |
| civpro | eevee, yes | 07:57 |
| Kareeser | doc|laptop: I definitely do NOT remember the steps to doing that... but it can be done. | 07:57 |
| poet | grub wont install during my installation, how can I check the logs to see what happened? this is on the alternate installer | 07:57 |
| doc|laptop | Kareeser: sounds painful | 07:57 |
| Jeruvy | !ppa | 07:57 |
| ubottu | 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. See https://help.launchpad.net/PPAQuickStart. | 07:57 |
| Surlent777 | Cryptic_Donkey: Not very hard at all...sometimes it likes to mess with my sound a little, but that was easy to figure out. It's actually surprisingly stable for self-proclaimed beta software, and it's pretty straightforward | 07:57 |
| Gnea | doc|laptop: most of the network bootable methods up there should still work for jaunty just fine - let us know if you have any issues with it - i find it's much, much faster than usb on my laptop - and my cd drive is hosed on it too | 07:57 |
| Kareeser | doc|laptop: yeeeahhhhh... for an entire ubuntu system... that's a lot of packages. | 07:57 |
| civpro | think mandriva might be a better option? | 07:57 |
| doc|laptop | Gnea: which link should I use? | 07:58 |
| Kareeser | doc|laptop: try Gnea's suggestion? :) | 07:58 |
| Eevee | civpro: so apt-get install linux-source and try the install again. or have I missed something | 07:58 |
| MaGicMaX1 | Eevee: cool ill look into it | 07:58 |
| doc|laptop | Kareeser: that's my plan right now, thanks for your help | 07:58 |
| civpro | ill try | 07:58 |
| Gnea | doc|laptop: I would open them all in different tabs :) sometimes cross-referencing information works | 07:58 |
| Kareeser | doc|laptop: good luck! | 07:58 |
| Surlent777 | Cryptic_Donkey: If you get it, don't forget to get the openbox configurer program thing, so you can change the window decorations and a few other things that their tool doesn't let you do | 07:58 |
| Kareeser | time to give this minimal ubuntu install a spin... night guys! | 07:58 |
| mano | hi everyone , my xchat and konversation won't accept a file from a friend it keeps saying Connection failure: connection actively refused. , he can send me stuff on amsn and pidgin ok. is there a hidden blocker or firewall on ubuntu i'm unaware of? | 07:58 |
| doc|laptop | Gnea: hehe, this sounds like it's going to hurt :) | 07:58 |
| Jeruvy | !iptables | mano | 07:59 |
| ubottu | mano: Ubuntu, like any other linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'ufw' command (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Uncomplicated_Firewall_ufw), or 'iptables' (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo). GUI applications such as Firestarter/Gufw (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE) also exist | 07:59 |
| MaGicMaX1 | Eevee: i just wanted one for System Monitor cause if a program or game crashes and i cant get to dekstop (or see it) then i can get to it still to end process :P | 07:59 |
| Cryptic_Donkey | Surlent777: Would you recommend LXDE for a intermediate user | 07:59 |
| Gnea | doc|laptop: only if you let it ;) | 07:59 |
| Remedy|ubuntu | hm, idk how to explain this why is it that like the screen is like.. moved over | 07:59 |
| doc|laptop | Gnea: hehe, thanks | 07:59 |
| Remedy|ubuntu | like part of the screen isnt showing, and i tried changing screen resolutions | 07:59 |
| Eevee | mano: ubuntu doesn't have firewall rules by default, no | 07:59 |
| Remedy|ubuntu | going higher only makes it worse | 07:59 |
| civpro | eevee, same error | 07:59 |
| Cryptic_Donkey | Surlent777: Please pm me the name of that con figuration utility/ | 07:59 |
| civpro | do i need to reboot? | 07:59 |

Interface eth0.IPv4 no longer relevant for DNS." What does it mean to 'withdraw the address record for 192.168.178.24? | 07:59 |
| Surlent777 | Cryptic_Donkey: I think that it would be possible for them to use, yes. I put it on the family laptop and it accidentally became the default for a while, and my family tended to prefer it to GNOME | 07:59 |
| Vatie | Remedy, have you tried using the auto adjust on your monitor? or am I mis-understanding? | 08:00 |
| Surlent777 | Cryptic_Donkey: And they know jack about Linux | 08:00 |
| Remedy|ubuntu | on my monitor itself ? | 08:00 |
| Vatie | Ya, there is an auto adjust button on most monitors. | 08:00 |
| Anon | Hello. I have a quick question about gcc and the SSP... | 08:00 |
| Remedy|ubuntu | nah that shouldnt have anything to do with it. | 08:00 |

| Remedy|ubuntu | with no screen probs | 08:00 |
| Remedy|ubuntu | i had this problem last time i think i had to do something with the xorg.conf but i cant remember what | 08:00 |
| Vatie | Ah, I see, I didn't see that first part. | 08:01 |
| Eevee | civpro: don't think that would change anything no | 08:01 |

| ctartamella | can anyone lend a hand with an nvidia twinview issue? my first display works fine, but when i enable twinview my second display is highly distorted (i can make out the correct data is going there.... just distorted and rainbowish). The same happens when i just use the secondary display by itself. | 08:02 |

| MaGicMaX1 | strange | 08:06 |
| ctartamella | reuben: my broadcom worked out of the box once i installed the restricted drivers.... go to hardware drivers under administration | 08:06 |
| Vatie | Tetris actually has a theme? I always played with the sound off... | 08:06 |
| Surlent777 | Vatie: It has a few actually | 08:06 |
| Eevee | MaGicMaX1: huh, same graphics settings? | 08:07 |
| Anon | There is, but I also read that the -fno-stack-protector disables it momentarily for compilation | 08:07 |
| Surlent777 | Vatie: The most famous is, I think, the one that plays by default in say, Tetris & Dr. Mario | 08:07 |
| Eevee | Vatie: the theme is half the experience! | 08:07 |
| MaGicMaX1 | Eevee: yes, actually AA is 1x i had it off in windows | 08:07 |
| Vatie | Pretty sure I have to go play it with the sound actually on. | 08:07 |
| Eevee | MaGicMaX1: that's a bit odd unless vista was really bogged down with services etc | 08:07 |
| ctartamella | eevee: well, it IS vista | 08:08 |
| Eevee | ctartamella: touché | 08:08 |

| Eevee | ctartamella: 7 looks more polished, but it isn't massively quicker from what I've heard and most of the changes seem to be ui | 08:09 |
| Glowball | Well, actually, I just can't, not even when I do it manually. | 08:09 |
| civpro | so anyone else have any ideas, on my screwed up issue that has taken my whole saturday? 12 hrs to be exact? | 08:09 |
| reuben | kool i did that but its still not responsive, ctart......any back up plans? | 08:09 |
| Glowball | (With keyboard shortcut keys) | 08:09 |
| Vatie | Surlent: Ok, so I HAVE heard this theme before. I didn't totally miss out on childhood, just forgot it. | 08:09 |
| KingKimi | Surlent777, whats the story of it ? :P | 08:09 |
| Gnea | civpro: if I knew what your problem was, then perhaps... | 08:09 |
| Surlent777 | KingKimi: OH NOES ALIEMS KILL TEHM ALL or something like that...I don't really know | 08:09 |
| Eevee | although speaking of 7, is there an alternative window list gnome-panel applet? | 08:10 |
| reuben | ciao tonino | 08:10 |
| Surlent777 | Vatie: Awesome. Find that hard rock version if you haven't yet, it rules | 08:10 |
| KingKimi | Surlent777, ok | 08:10 |
| Eevee | civpro: besides aptitude reinstall nvidia-glx-180 and sprinkling some fairy dust.. not really | 08:10 |
| civpro | gnea, nvidia 8500, no gui, to put it simply | 08:10 |
| reuben | parlate italiano tonino? | 08:10 |
| Gnea | civpro: is the monitor connected directly or through a kvm? | 08:10 |
| MaGicMaX1 | Eevee: i didnt expect wine would be this good, hmm maybe i shoulda made the Ubuntu partition bigger then 50GB lol | 08:10 |
| civpro | gnea, directly, vga, its a 51in lcd tv | 08:11 |
| Surlent777 | MaGicMaX1: Ever gotten Fable to work with it? | 08:11 |
| Gnea | civpro: k. are you booted into it now? | 08:11 |
| civpro | ssh'd | 08:12 |
| MaGicMaX1 | Surlent777: no just WoW so far | 08:12 |
| Eevee | MaGicMaX1: well it's been under development since the dawn of time; it's come a long way. still kinda hit-or-miss though; I know Left 4 Dead still runs sluggishly, and even a few non-3d apps like Acrobat don't want to work | 08:12 |
| civpro | tv is downstairs | 08:12 |
| nogagplz | MaGicMaX1, ubuntu is not about wine. use ubuntu for ubuntu, and don't score it based on wine | 08:12 |
| Gnea | civpro: can you see the display from where you're at? | 08:12 |
| Surlent777 | Eevee: I've noticed that Project64 is far better under Wine than XP, which blows me away | 08:12 |
| civpro | gnea, im ssh'd into it | 08:12 |
| civpro | if i walk downstairs i can see it | 08:12 |
| Gnea | civpro: can you be looking at the lcd tv while you are ssh'd into it and typing into the ssh session? | 08:13 |
| KingKimi | why does anything in wine looks "ugly" ???? | 08:13 |
| MaGicMaX1 | nogagplz: ive used Ubuntu for a year now without wine, i would just like to be able to use Ubuntu more, eventually take windows right off if possible... if wine helps me get to that point so be it | 08:13 |
| Cryptic_Bat | Whe in installed lxde it kill gnome network manager which killed my wireles and ethernet connections | 08:13 |

| Eevee | MaGicMaX1: but yeah wine is still just very advanced duct tape. would be preferable to get more native linux apps. buy linux releases of games if they interest you at all, etc | 08:14 |
| Surlent777 | Cryptic_Bat: Weird. My internet always works regardless of my environment | 08:14 |
| Gnea | civpro: well, it'd really be easier to diagnose if you were - are you on a wired or wireless connection? | 08:14 |
| civpro | another words, this computer, i have a putty window opened up where i can send commands | 08:14 |
| civpro | wired | 08:14 |
| Gnea | yeah, i gathered that much | 08:14 |
| civpro | gnea, i can run downstairs to see, but then i cant type into mirc | 08:14 |

| reuben | any suggestions? | 08:15 |
| MaGicMaX1 | Eevee: most games i like are not for linux | 08:15 |
| Gnea | civpro: are you familiar with the irc program called irssi? | 08:15 |
| attis84 | /join #heapkeeper | 08:15 |
| Cryptic_Bat | It the broard com drivers I think because i also have no eth1 which was my bcm 4312 wifi card | 08:15 |
| civpro | gnea, is it a gui interface? | 08:15 |
| civpro | cause it wont load if so atm | 08:15 |
| Surlent777 | Cryptic_Bat: I'm sorry, my own network is tenuous enough...I'm afraid I don't quite know how it all works | 08:15 |
| Gnea | civpro: nope, it's text-only, you could use it on the console on the tv... | 08:15 |
| civpro | ok | 08:16 |
| Eevee | MaGicMaX1: yeah but it helps to show that there's a waiting linux customer base. like I waited to buy world of goo for linux rather than getting it on the wii | 08:16 |

| civpro | let me try to set it up here then run downstairs once its running | 08:16 |
| attis84 | sorry | 08:16 |

| ubottu | Irssi is a terminal based IRC client. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Irssi for help. See also !screen | 08:16 |
| civpro | k its installed | 08:16 |
| civpro | now what? | 08:17 |
| Eevee | civpro: /help is very thorough, alt+num or esc,num (or arrows) switches windows, other than that irc commands work the same | 08:17 |
| Surlent777 | Cryptic_Bat: I think LXDE may have its own network manager...look around in Synaptic a bit | 08:17 |
| MaGicMaX1 | Eevee: i would jump all over a great linux game... i just dont see many | 08:17 |
| Gnea | civpro: if you go downstairs, can you ctrl-alt-f1 and get a login prompt and login to the console that way? | 08:17 |
| Surlent777 | MaGicMaX1: Doom 3 =) | 08:17 |
| rajeshsr | hi, i have installed ubuntu in my system. It seems to be automounting all my partitions to /media. But it seems not be using mount! I want it to be mounted to some other mount point, what am I to do? | 08:17 |
| Leonheart | Wine dont support themes/visual style XD | 08:17 |
| Surlent777 | Leonheart: That's a lie | 08:17 |
| Surlent777 | You just need an msthemes file | 08:18 |
| Eevee | MaGicMaX1: yeah, bit of a catch-22. indie devs seem to be increasingly inclined to release on linux though | 08:18 |
| MaGicMaX1 | Eevee: the only other app for windows that keeps me in windows is AutoCAD | 08:18 |
| civpro | gnea, there is no gui so i dont need to press anything | 08:18 |
| civpro | it fails to load | 08:18 |
| Surlent777 | MaGicMaX1: What's AutoCAD? | 08:18 |
| sacarlson | rajeshsr: maybe just symbolic link it to where you want it to be. | 08:18 |
| rajeshsr | sacarlson: ha, thats cool.But i wanna know what program and config files ubuntu uses for this purpose.. | 08:19 |
| MaGicMaX1 | Surlent777: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AutoCAD | 08:19 |
| Surlent777 | ok, thanks | 08:19 |
| Gnea | civpro: okay - let's be clear about something: when the GUI fails to load, the 'GUI' fails to load, but the kernel and the userspace itself should actually be running. The GUI is running on tty7, or ctrl-alt-f7. by switching to the standard console login, it's possible to interact with the system in the standard, legacy mode that linux is well-known for. | 08:19 |
| root | testing | 08:20 |
| Leonheart | Surlent777: are you sure? Wht files / dll i need to copy? | 08:20 |
| root | ok im in | 08:20 |
| root | let me go downstairs | 08:20 |
| Gnea | civpro: you've already proven that the userspace is running properly by ssh'ing into the system. | 08:20 |

| Slart | Gnea: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hiweed | 08:43 |
| qa321qa123 | This is a good OS. | 08:43 |
| roadmap | Default User Interface: Gnome | 08:43 |

| roadmap | It has Compiz enabled by default from the looks of things. | 08:44 |
| Eevee | civpro-trying_ag: those were separate commands | 08:44 |
| civpro-trying_ag | oh ok | 08:45 |

| pronoy | is there an offline dictionary application available ?????? one which doesn't connect to the net everytime you search for a word ? | 08:45 |

| roadmap | joemac: hm. this problem sounds fun. | 08:46 |
| Slart | joemac: ehm.. ok.. is that a problem? | 08:46 |
| fornix | pronoy: you could install the dict server | 08:46 |
| roadmap | joemac: Do you need ro quiet splash? Like absolutely have to have it? | 08:46 |
| qa321qa123 | Oh!But it is slow. | 08:47 |
| nogagplz | roadmap, desktop environment like gnome*. kwin is the window manager | 08:47 |

| civpro-trying_ag | just pasted the log it wrote to, for some reason that command didnt work | 08:48 |
| civpro-trying_ag | let me make sure | 08:48 |
| roadmap | qa321qa123: KDE4 can be slow on older computers. It may be better to use something like Gnome (which Ubuntu uses) or XFCE (which XUbuntu uses) | 08:48 |
| Gnea | !e17 | qa321qa123 | 08:48 |
| ubottu | qa321qa123: Enlightenment (or "E") is a window manager for X, providing a useful, and good looking graphical shell in which to work. E17 is the current development version. | 08:48 |
| joemac | roadmap: Slart: ro quiet splash doesn't work and I have no interest in it. I have had to edit it out with all_generic_ide, but I won't boot of the first enrty(default) and I have to go to the 3rd one on the list to boot | 08:48 |

| qa321qa123 | Why don't I use the wave special effect? | 08:52 |
| Slart | sirMajid: you should be able to.. I'm not sure if timidity includes a player.. it's really a midi synthesizer | 08:52 |

| roadmap | From the looks of it | 08:53 |
| civpro-trying_ag | ok so now what? | 08:53 |
| civpro-trying_ag | its a mess isnt it? | 08:53 |
| Eevee | civpro-trying_ag: aptitude search nvidia-glx -- are any of those installed? (something besides 'p' on the left) | 08:53 |

| Eevee | sainorg9oz: yeah an upgrade shouldn't touch anything but software | 08:53 |
| xangua | sainorg9oz: yes | 08:53 |
| civpro-trying_ag | ya 180 | 08:53 |
| Slart | sirMajid: it converts the midi signals to sound.. so you don't have to rely on the soundcard for doing that | 08:53 |

| qa321qa123 | See you. | 08:54 |
| Gnea | civpro-trying_ag: lspci is just that: it lists your pci bus | 08:54 |
| roadmap | joemac: you will see an entry that says: default 0 | 08:54 |
| roadmap | joemac: just make it 2 and itll auto select the third option at startup | 08:55 |
| Gnea | civpro-trying_ag: dmesg dumps all the kernel messages | 08:55 |
| civpro-trying_ag | ok so pastebinit lspci ? | 08:55 |
| Gnea | yeah | 08:55 |

| civpro-trying_ag | nothing after? | 08:59 |

| khg | bro how to install exe file in | 09:11 |
| khg | ubuntu | 09:12 |
| Gnea | !caps | thadoood | 09:12 |
| ubottu | thadoood: PLEASE DON'T SHOUT! We can read lowercase too. | 09:12 |
| shawnmstout | khg, wine | 09:12 |
| khg | how to? | 09:12 |
| roadmap | Eevee: Doesn't Ubuntu use HAL for automounting devices? | 09:12 |
| Raf | filezilla ftw | 09:12 |
| Gnea | !wine | khg | 09:12 |
| ubottu | khg: WINE is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux - More information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine - Search the !AppDB for application compatibility ratings - Join #winehq for application help - See !virtualizers for running Windows (or another OS) inside Ubuntu | 09:12 |
| Eevee | roadmap: yes as I discovered about four minutes ago | 09:12 |
| thadoood | im sorry, ive been drinking and im invigorated by this forums intricate conversations pieces of shiot ! | 09:12 |
| roadmap | Eevee: If Hal is whats autmounting the devices shouldn't he be able to change it by editing the hal configurations? | 09:12 |
| shawnmstout | so anymore ideas? | 09:12 |
| Gnea | thadoood: then please, step away from the computer and come back when you are sober. | 09:12 |
| roadmap | Eevee: I have some fun experience with hal. I've never played with how its setup on Ubuntu, but if he wants to change the default automount point there is a way. | 09:13 |
| roadmap | Assuming hal does it. | 09:13 |
| thadoood | i cant.... the computorrrr is calling me, i cant resist its temptation of excellence | 09:13 |
| shawnmstout | do you think i would be better off with mandriva, or am i going to run into the same thing | 09:13 |
| thadoood | speaking of wich, when i wake up in the morning , i piss excellent | 09:13 |
| Eevee | roadmap: my highly detailed search (ack -a media /etc/hal) didn't find anything useful | 09:13 |
| thadoood | just thought i would share that | 09:13 |
| Gnea | thadoood: you should join #ubuntu-offtopic, they will be much more to your current style :) | 09:13 |
| shawnmstout | i started out with archlinux about 10am today, its not 4:13am heh | 09:14 |
| roadmap | Eevee: I don't think /etc/hal is the right place to look. Let me take a look at it. I may be wrong :). | 09:14 |
| thadoood | great idear | 09:14 |
| roadmap | Eevee: debian logic baffles the mind. | 09:14 |
| xPhilosx | Hey, Im having some issues getting my ubuntu minimal install to play sound, I have the ALSA packages installed, alsa-mixer shows that nothing is muted either (running 9.04 minimal with lxde on a tx1000) | 09:14 |
| Eevee | roadmap: my experience with HAL consists mainly of not needing to know it exists, so | 09:14 |
| roadmap | Eevee: Well you have now known for well over four minutes. Congratulations. | 09:14 |
| shawnmstout | i mean if there is a chance ill try mandriva, but i have a hunch im going to run into the same exact thing | 09:15 |
| Eevee | roadmap: well I KNEW, I just didn't NEED to :P clearly it is doing a good job | 09:15 |
| Gnea | shawnmstout: well, mandriva uses rpm's, so you might just be barking up a whole other tree then | 09:15 |
| Gnea | shawnmstout: let's check something else - were you able to get that other pastebin up? | 09:15 |
| shawnmstout | yes last one was.... | 09:15 |
| Eevee | shawnmstout: might have better luck just installing desktop and ripping everything out | 09:15 |
| shawnmstout | http://pastebin.com/f11ebf0bb | 09:15 |
| shawnmstout | eevee, it wont install, driver issue | 09:16 |
| shawnmstout | well it installs but no user interface | 09:16 |
| shawnmstout | gui i mean | 09:16 |
| dent | I'm having odd behaviour on 9.04 (while my laptop worked ok on 8.10)... I suspect something in the kernel (getting random crashes/fsck complaints on boot, but memtest86, smart, badblocks claim all is ok, also 8.10 works ok)... can I get older (2.6.27-11, from 8.10) kernel into 9.04? I could build that, but if I can "force" apt somehow... | 09:16 |
| yaris123456789 | is there any way to make wget ignore javascript & #target links ? | 09:16 |
| shawnmstout | so basically im left at the same exact thing | 09:16 |
| khg | help me:$? | 09:16 |
| Gnea | shawnmstout: hrm, the reconfiguration left it using the vesa driver, which definitely won't work... can you edit the /etc/X11/xorg.conf and replace the instances of 'vesa' with 'nv'? | 09:16 |
| jebussell | heya | 09:17 |
| Draco_1 | (ok, I try for the third and last time ) I have problems installing ubuntu on an old laptop ( 600Mhz, 160mb of ram, no dvd, cdrom only ), I tryed the alternate install as well but it doesn't install ( says it can't find an adaguate kernel to install ), I've heard there is a version installable from USB, where can I find it? or is there another easy to use linux distribution I can try to install? | 09:17 |
| shawnmstout | khg, we gave you your answer | 09:17 |
| Gnea | shawnmstout: sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf | 09:17 |
| marcel_ | dent, did you see anything in /var/log/messages? | 09:17 |
| roadmap | Draco_1: Your machine may not be i686 compatible? | 09:17 |
| shawnmstout | yes i can do that | 09:17 |
| abin_ | is there some pdfedit software like adobe crobat | 09:17 |
| shawnmstout | brb | 09:17 |
| Gnea | khg: install wine - check Applications menu | 09:17 |
| roadmap | Or does Ubuntu require i386? | 09:17 |
| jebussell | Which Version would i need to put on my Mac PowerBook G4 | 09:17 |
| Draco_1 | it's a celeron, i386 compatible for sure | 09:17 |
| dent | marcel_: nothing conclusive... when appcrashes, I see SIGSEGV logged... and sometimes filesystem complains... it seems like its slowly "rotting" when on, untill it crashes | 09:17 |
| Eevee | abin_: could try scribus, it can read (most) pdfs | 09:17 |
| khg | Gnea tolk | 09:18 |
| Eevee | abin_: and any app can print to pdf | 09:18 |
| khg | p8 | 09:18 |
| khg | prv | 09:18 |
| marcel_ | dent, what filesystem are you using | 09:18 |
| khg | private | 09:18 |
| dent | marcel_: tried ext2/3/4, basically the same :-( | 09:18 |
| roadmap | Draco_1: if you have linux (or windows) laying around download a tool called UNetBootin. You can find it on sourceforge, or in the Synaptic repositories. | 09:18 |
| dent | marcel_: I.e. I think it's not FS-caused | 09:18 |
| Gnea | khg: no, keep it in the channel - makes it easier for others to help you | 09:18 |
| roadmap | Draco_1: You can then take the Ubuntu ISO (or have UNetBootin download and do this for you) and put it on a USB device. | 09:18 |
| marcel_ | dent, what architecture? i386? | 09:18 |
| Eevee | Draco_1: installing from USB would still be the same installer. sure you're not trying to install the 64-bit version? | 09:18 |
| dent | marcel_: x86_64 | 09:19 |
| shawnmstout | um, hrm | 09:19 |
| jebussell | PB G4 PPC 1.33Ghz (Manu. April 04) 17" | 09:19 |
| shawnmstout | no xorg.conf file in etc | 09:19 |
| roadmap | Draco_1: After that you can boot Ubuntu off a USB drive, in which you should be able to install from (assuming this is your problem) | 09:19 |
| Eevee | shawnmstout: /etc/X11/xorg.conf | 09:19 |
| javyn | how would i go about setting up a simple home network where i can share printers and directories? | 09:19 |
| shawnmstout | wtf | 09:19 |
| Gnea | !pm | khg | 09:19 |
| javyn | prefereably something windows computers can be on too? | 09:19 |
| ubottu | khg: Please ask your questions in the channel so that other people can help you, benefit from your questions and answers and ensure that you're not getting bad advice. Please note that some people find it rude to be sent a PM without being asked for permission to do so first. | 09:19 |
| marcel_ | dent, did you try boot options like iommu=false? | 09:19 |
| Draco_1 | yes, I'm quite sure I chosed the 32bit version, thanks for the info, I will check it out | 09:19 |
| roadmap | Eevee: I think its architecture related. I think Ubuntu requires i686 compatibility. | 09:19 |
| Fzang | can someone help me with install partitioner? because, honestly, I don't get it | 09:19 |
| dent | marcel_: did not... will do, thanks for tip | 09:19 |
| roadmap | I use all kinds of linux distros so I may be spreading disinformation. | 09:19 |
| roadmap | If I'm wrong about that someone let me know. | 09:19 |
| xPhilosx | Hey, Im having some issues getting my ubuntu minimal install to play sound, I have the ALSA packages installed, alsa-mixer shows that nothing is muted either (running 9.04 minimal with lxde on a tx1000). Anyone know of any posted fixes or ideas? I've done quite a bit of searchig and I cant come up with anything. | 09:19 |
| roadmap | Otherwise its architecture related. | 09:19 |
| javyn | i'd really appreciate help being pointed in the right direction, even if it's a link or FAQ on home networking | 09:19 |
| thadoood | well i got kicked out of the other channel so im back | 09:19 |
| th0r | Draco_1: according to the website at least 256MB of ram is required for the alternate install | 09:19 |
| thadoood | dammit ! | 09:19 |
| Eevee | roadmap: I've never read anything to that effect but I don't know that you're wrong either | 09:20 |
| marcel_ | dent, if you use a livecd for instance with xubuntu amd64, do you have crashes? | 09:20 |
| fizk | Hi, are the query parameters of a SSL/HTTPS GET request exposed to the world? | 09:20 |
| elky | thadoood, ask support in clean language or not at all. | 09:20 |
| shawnmstout | no xorg.conf file man | 09:20 |
| thadoood | apparently thier drinking haterade at this time of morning | 09:20 |
| shawnmstout | i dont get it | 09:20 |
| dent | marcel_: also didn't try... will try | 09:20 |
| Fzang | how do I move the slider in the installer? I just want ubuntu installed alongside my current windows partition, not resize or anything | 09:20 |
| thadoood | me.... im still drinking beer | 09:20 |
| roadmap | Eevee: Again, It could be other distros I've used (like Arch) that require i686 and Ubuntu is more architecture friendly. | 09:20 |
| shawnmstout | it is /etc/xorg.conf correct? | 09:20 |
| elky | thadoood, ask your support question only. | 09:20 |
| thadoood | elky: dont be such a nazi , gawd i was just messing with yall | 09:21 |
| Eevee | shawnmstout: no, /etc/X11/xorg.conf | 09:21 |
| marcel_ | dent, i would go for xubuntu amd64 ext4 fs, and try boot option iommu=false, i have this also | 09:21 |
| thadoood | geeezz loiussss | 09:21 |
| shawnmstout | ah | 09:21 |
| shawnmstout | ok | 09:21 |
| khg | Gnea tolk me in private | 09:21 |
| Eevee | shawnmstout: most stuff in /etc is in /etc/<program>/ | 09:21 |
| dent | marcel_: odd is it looks pretty much like HDD/RAM issue, but older ubuntu works, and so do ram/hdd tests :-/ | 09:21 |
| Gnea | khg: i said NO | 09:21 |
| dent | marcel_: thanks once again, Im gonna try it out | 09:21 |
| khg | i used XChat :( | 09:21 |
| khg | i not use very good | 09:21 |
| Draco_1 | th0r: so I can't install ubuntu on that pc? | 09:22 |
| thadoood | dont kick me because im right and your anal | 09:22 |
| thadoood | !!! | 09:22 |
| th0r | Draco_1: not according to ubuntu.com | 09:22 |
| Gnea | !guidelines | thadoood | 09:22 |
| ubottu | thadoood: The guidelines for using the Ubuntu channels can be found here: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines | 09:22 |
| th0r | Draco_1: http://www.ubuntu.com/products/whatisubuntu/desktopedition at the bottom of the page lists the hw requirements | 09:22 |
| Barbarella | thadoood:you can use your cdrom as a cup holder, try it. | 09:22 |
| Gnea | Barbarella: now that's just mean :) | 09:23 |
| Draco_1 | th0r: strange, the install runs anyway | 09:23 |
| khg | bro:$ | 09:23 |
| Obi1 | hello | 09:23 |
| khg | Gnea | 09:23 |
| Draco_1 | can you suggest me another linux distro to try? | 09:23 |
| shawnmstout | there is no vesa or nv | 09:23 |
| shawnmstout | in that file | 09:24 |
| khg | Gnea tolk me bro | 09:24 |
| shawnmstout | gnea | 09:24 |
| Gnea | khg: please /join #winehq and ask there | 09:24 |
| Avantgardist | hello, i need help for hda intel sound codec: Realtec ALC662 rev1 on ubuntu 9.04 64 Bit | 09:24 |
| roadmap | Draco_1: It could be a bad disc, bad ISO and you need to redownload it and reburn it. | 09:24 |
| khg | i join | 09:24 |
| khg | :) | 09:24 |
| Obi1 | can anyone suggest me the option for fsck? | 09:24 |
| roadmap | Draco_1: Its very likely that your computer is capable but the download is corrupt. That could be a big part of it. | 09:24 |
| shawnmstout | gnea, no instances of vesa or nv | 09:24 |
| shawnmstout | in that file | 09:24 |
| roadmap | Draco_1: However if you want alternative distros I can give you a handfull :) | 09:25 |
| khg | Gnea i join | 09:25 |
| khg | tolk me:@ | 09:25 |
| Eevee | Draco_1: if you redownload it try the torrent link; pretty hard to get a corrupt torrent download | 09:26 |
| Obi1 | ??? fsck?? | 09:26 |
| roadmap | Draco_1: If you use firefox, I'd suggest using a download manager like DownThemAll. Otherwise do as Eevee suggests and try the torrent. | 09:26 |
| thelastquincy | so where can i get help on my audio?? | 09:26 |
| juha1 | hi, i cant use ati catalys control center in my ubuntu, because ati have stopped support for x800 series, so i need to use open-source drivers. so i was wondering if there is some other program for linux to controlt tv-out system and other useful stuff.. is there some equal software or something els i should do? | 09:26 |
| shawnmstout | gnea, you falling asleep on us? | 09:26 |
| roadmap | Eevee: I've seen torrent clients freak out and go over 100% on a file before (120% complete? Somethings wrong). I've also seen it claim 100% and still missing a piece or two. | 09:26 |
| Gnea | shawnmstout: could you please pastebin it? | 09:26 |
| Gnea | soon... | 09:26 |
| shawnmstout | sure | 09:26 |
| roadmap | Eevee: He very easily could have jump the gun on the "Complete" from a torrent client :). | 09:27 |
| xPhilosx | I think that makes at least 3 of us having audio issues... | 09:27 |
| jebussell | hello? | 09:27 |
| Gnea | shawnmstout: i'm thinking that maybe you'd just be better off installing the desktop version | 09:27 |
| Obi1 | ciao asa | 09:27 |
| thelastquincy | so no help just more questions? | 09:27 |
| ASA | hi | 09:27 |
| roadmap | shawnmstout: are you the guy who has Ubuntu Server and wants to get a desktop environment on it without installing ubuntu-desktop? | 09:27 |
| jebussell | What version do I need a forum said 7.10 Desktop | 09:27 |
| Draco_1 | I will try the torrent thanks | 09:28 |
| Obi1 | hi asa | 09:28 |
| abin_ | is there some pdfedit software like adobe crobat | 09:28 |
| Obi1 | do you know the command fsck? | 09:28 |
| jebussell | is that right? and will it overright OSX Tiger or Dual boot | 09:28 |
| shawnmstout | http://pastebin.com/f1a594131 | 09:28 |
| roadmap | So it is you | 09:28 |
| shawnmstout | i would run into the same issue though | 09:29 |
| roadmap | shawnmstout: whats your reasoning for doing this backwards? | 09:29 |
| shawnmstout | with the driver | 09:29 |
| Eevee | jebussell: whoa, 7.10 is old. (the versions are year.month of release.) you probably want 9.04. dual-booting a mac is slightly tricky though, 1s | 09:29 |
| roadmap | shawnmstout: Why pick a server distro then want to configure something like X on it? | 09:29 |
| shawnmstout | roadmap, im only installing a base system, wanted to run virtualbox overtop of it | 09:29 |
| Avantgardist | << HDA Intel Sound with Codec Realtec ALC662 rev1 > low volume output and if i move the mouse or starting a program the boxes make like a "sssrrrrrrrr", plz help | 09:29 |

| xPhilosx | Hey, Im having some issues getting my ubuntu minimal install to play sound, I have the ALSA packages installed, alsa-mixer shows that nothing is muted either (running 9.04 minimal with lxde on a tx1000). Anyone know of any posted fixes or ideas? I've done quite a bit of searchig and I cant come up with anything. | 09:30 |
| shawnmstout | the server version has great reviews for virtualization | 09:30 |
| jebussell | I read on Pure Mac (when downloading stuff I cam across with alternate OSs) latest doesn't work with G4? | 09:30 |
| shawnmstout | if you read on the ubuntu site, its meant for specifically that | 09:30 |
| roadmap | shawnmstout: are you going to use it as a server or as a desktop with VirtualBox on top? | 09:30 |
| Eevee | jebussell: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MactelSupportTeam/AppleIntelInstallation#Dual-Boot:%20Mac%20OSX%20and%20Ubuntu | 09:30 |
| Gnea | shawnmstout: okay, try it like this: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg | 09:31 |
| jebussell | cheers | 09:31 |
| jebussell | bbl cook dinner | 09:31 |
| shawnmstout | many virtualboxes and setting up a lamp server, dhcp server, tftp server | 09:31 |
| Eevee | jebussell: you could use the last long-term release, 8.04, but 7.10 is getting a bit ancient | 09:31 |
| shawnmstout | ok | 09:31 |
| shawnmstout | gnea, ok | 09:31 |
| gnubie | Avantgardist; http://www.ubuntugeek.com/sound-solutions-for-ubuntu-904-jaunty-users.html have you looked here? | 09:32 |
| roadmap | shawnmstout: and why wont you setup just one? Is this a home experiment or a datacenter situation? | 09:32 |
| el_taco | hi | 09:32 |
| Avantgardist | i try it thx | 09:32 |
| jorgerosa | hi | 09:32 |
| el_taco | why is it that I only want to talk to people when i'm drunk | 09:32 |
| jorgerosa | lol | 09:33 |
| dimitris | join #fosscomm | 09:33 |
| giganto | hi all, is there an issue with shutting down in ubuntu 9.04? | 09:33 |
| roadmap | el_taco: this is #ubuntu not #singles ;). | 09:33 |
| el_taco | lol | 09:33 |
| jorgerosa | lmao | 09:33 |
| xken | hi guys | 09:33 |
| jorgerosa | hi | 09:33 |
| shawnmstout | ok i got a choice yes/no here | 09:34 |
| el_taco | so there's a #ubuntu-singles? | 09:34 |
| shawnmstout | dont want to pick the wrong thing | 09:34 |
| Gnea | shawnmstout: what does it ask? | 09:34 |
| xken | i am a noob to limux | 09:34 |
| shawnmstout | use kernal framebuffer device | 09:34 |
| xken | i need help | 09:34 |
| Gnea | say no | 09:34 |

| shawnmstout | ok | 09:34 |
| Gnea | !ask | xken | 09:34 |
| ubottu | xken: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line, so others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) | 09:34 |
| leaphion | humm... a veery peculiar question. is there an emulator for gameboy that would have midi-sync enabled?`:) | 09:34 |
| shawnmstout | ok | 09:35 |
| shawnmstout | done | 09:35 |
| giganto | hi all, is there an issue with shutting down in ubuntu 9.04 ?? | 09:35 |
| Gnea | and..? | 09:35 |
| xken | how can set up a local sever with ubuntu | 09:35 |
| Gnea | giganto: not here, is there? | 09:35 |
| shawnmstout | failed to load module vesa, doesnt exist | 09:35 |
| Gnea | xken: best to ask in #ubuntu-server | 09:36 |
| giganto | Gnea, when I shut down, it brings me to a blank screen where it says some number and then "system halted" | 09:36 |
| Niv3k | would someone point me to info on setting up a private home network. Ubuntu 9.10 | 09:36 |
| shawnmstout | do i need to add a line in there for nv? | 09:36 |
| xPhilosx | 09:36 | |
| Eevee | Niv3k: plug the computers into a router. after that it rather depends what you want to do | 09:36 |
| Gnea | shawnmstout: possibly... cd /etc/X11/ && rgrep -i vesa what results do you get? pastebin? | 09:37 |
| shawnmstout | 1 sec | 09:37 |
| roadmap | shawnmstout: I would recommend going with something like ArchLinux or even Gentoo at this rate if you want something for a server. | 09:37 |
| Gnea | Niv3k: please wait until October to ask again. | 09:37 |
| roadmap | shawnmstout: or just take the Ubuntu Server kernel and replace the ubuntu desktop kernel with it. | 09:37 |
| Niv3k | Serve files around a home network | 09:37 |
| roadmap | shawnmstout: Most likely that kernel is what has been optimized/streamlined for virtualization. | 09:37 |
| Eevee | Niv3k: right-click folders, Sharing Options. other machines should show up under Network | 09:38 |
| Gnea | Niv3k: :) | 09:38 |
| shawnmstout | no responce yet | 09:38 |
| Eevee | Gnea: I assume he's using the pre-pre-pre-pre-alpha | 09:38 |
| shawnmstout | no command just cd /etc/X11/ && rgrep -i vesa right? | 09:38 |
| Eevee | Gnea: or has a time machine which I would like to borrow | 09:38 |
| xPhilosx | Hey, Im having some issues getting my ubuntu minimal install to play sound, I have the ALSA packages installed, alsa-mixer shows that nothing is muted either (running 9.04 minimal with lxde on a tx1000).

| Gnea | Eevee: available via ess-vee-enn? | 09:38 |
| Niv3k | K thanks | 09:38 |
| giganto | umm where can I ask about this shutting down issue with ubuntu 9.04? | 09:39 |
| Barbarella | shawnmstout: can you pastebin dpkg -l |grep xorg | 09:39 |
| Niv3k | So i dont need to setup a vpn | 09:39 |
| Eevee | giganto: could search the forums | 09:39 |
| xken | what is the best distro to run a local server wisely? | 09:39 |
| shawnmstout | kinda froze here now gnea | 09:39 |
| Eevee | Niv3k: er no, that's only if you want to make a fake LAN over the internet | 09:39 |
| Gnea | giganto: here. just say what the details of the problem are. if someone knows, they'll try to help. | 09:39 |
| Niv3k | ahh... thanks | 09:40 |
| Eevee | xken: we have a little ubuntu desktop machine that acts as a server | 09:40 |
| giganto | Eevee, ah, I tried that before, nothing, that's why I came here | 09:40 |
| xPhilosx | xken, debian is pretty solid for servers, but its all about preference really | 09:40 |
| adiktd|server | ne1 else got issues with ubuntu 9.04 and ATI gfx drivers for radeon 1650 | 09:40 |
| Gnea | shawnmstout: you did type cd /etc/X11 before running the rgrep command, right? | 09:40 |
| shawnmstout | gnea, nothing is happening | 09:40 |
| shawnmstout | no | 09:40 |
| Gnea | shawnmstout: then ctrl-c | 09:40 |
| shawnmstout | i combined them together | 09:40 |
| Gnea | o.O | 09:40 |
| Gnea | lol | 09:40 |
| Gnea | shawnmstout: make sure you do the cd first :) | 09:41 |

| shawnmstout | im already in that directory | 09:41 |
| saminlinux | hi guys... can someone tell me the best supported audio format in linux. that is without installing any properitary drivers. am completely shifting to linux and want to convert all my mp3's to that format.. | 09:41 |
| Gnea | ok - rgrep should take MUCH less time now | 09:41 |
| shawnmstout | ok | 09:41 |
| Eevee | xPhilosx: could try running a sound-producing app from the terminal. if there's a problem talking to alsa it might spew to stderr | 09:42 |
| roadmap | saminlinux: mp3s are supported in Linux. So is Flac, Ogg, and any other format you can imagine. | 09:42 |
| PolitikerALT | saminlinux: ogg - but DON'T convert your mp3s - the quality will be much worse | 09:42 |
| shawnmstout | just rgrep -i vesa | 09:42 |
| giganto | Gnea, ah okay... The problem basically is like this, I tried shutting down the normal way, system shutdown ... etc... then it would start to shut down, the logo came up ... with that bar, after which it would go to a blank screen with a random number that looks like this "2341.23451 system halted" | 09:42 |
| xPhilosx | Eevee, good idea, ill give something a whirl | 09:42 |
| Gnea | saminlinux: ogg vorbis | 09:42 |
| roadmap | saminlinux: Also if you use ubuntu, synpatic has libraries for any format you want supported. | 09:42 |
| Gnea | shawnmstout: yes. | 09:42 |
| roadmap | synaptic | 09:42 |
| roadmap | i cant type :( | 09:42 |
| shawnmstout | whats it doing, out of curiosity? | 09:42 |
| saminlinux | so to what format should i convert my mp3'2??? | 09:42 |
| saminlinux | mp3's??? | 09:42 |
| roadmap | saminlinux: Don't convert them. They will work fine on Linux just as they are right now. | 09:42 |
| PolitikerALT | Mp3s should stay mp3s | 09:43 |
| Eevee | saminlinux: unless you have a statue to RMS erected in your closet, there's no reason to convert them | 09:43 |
| roadmap | Eevee: Stay out of my closet. | 09:43 |
| lflashlnzl | i have a windows 7 partition and i cant seem to resize it under gparted 9.04ubuntu | 09:43 |
| roadmap | lflashlnzl: I'd say try the gparted boot disk. | 09:43 |
| Gnea | giganto: aaah, sounds like acpi isn't working right - try this at bootup in grub on the kernel line: acpi=force | 09:43 |
| saminlinux | oh ok... nope i just wanted to know all this ffmpeg and wma is driving me crazy thats why | 09:43 |
| Eevee | saminlinux: if you have the original CDs or flacs, sure, you could rip those to ogg, but otherwise you'd be chewing up perfectly good files | 09:43 |
| icareus | Hello everyone | 09:43 |
| icareus | Salut tout l' monde | 09:43 |
| Gnea | saminlinux: there's an mp32ogg | 09:44 |
| Eevee | lflashlnzl: gparted refuses, or it just won't let you resize it any smaller than it is now? | 09:44 |
| Gnea | !info mp32ogg | 09:44 |
| ubottu | mp32ogg (source: mp32ogg): Converts MP3 file to Ogg Vorbis. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.11-12 (jaunty), package size 7 kB, installed size 64 kB | 09:44 |
| lflashlnzl | roadmap, should i just use the live CD? thats how i resize it the first time | 09:44 |
| roadmap | saminlinux: Once again, I'll keep my answer short and simple. Do not convert them. Mp3s play in linux. Hell, all formats that play in Windows play in Linux (note: MEDIA FILES, so Video/Audio) | 09:44 |
| giganto | Gnea, ah right ... the acpi problem ... there's a thread on the forum, I'll take a look at it again, I wasn't sure previously what my issue was, anyway, thanks a lot | 09:44 |
| roadmap | lflashlnzl: There is a bootable gparted CD i prefer for doing partition editing work. I've yet to have a problem with it. | 09:44 |
| saminlinux | wma doesnt seem to be supported in ubuntu am i right cos my banshee searches for codecs and reports that nothing suitable is found.. exaile hangs when wma are used | 09:44 |
| Shinu | Hey | 09:45 |
| roadmap | saminlinux: have you tried VLC? | 09:45 |
| Gnea | saminlinux: but I agree with roadmap - there's no need to convert them, mp3's are fine the way they are | 09:45 |
| lflashlnzl | Eevee, it just reduses to let me resize! only options are to format | 09:45 |
| Shinu | my Ubuntu server just powered off, what should I check to see what caused it? | 09:45 |

| Gnea | shawnmstout: ctrl-c and try like this then: rgrep -i vesa * | 09:45 |
| saminlinux | ok guys... i am not converting my mp3's.. what about wma's???? | 09:45 |
| roadmap | saminlinux: vlc or mplayer will play anything. Anything. I don't care if its a format from the moon. | 09:45 |
| defrysk | re-compressing compressed audio-video files provides quality-loss | 09:45 |

| shawnmstout | ok had to add sudo to it but it set it now | 09:46 |
| Gnea | shawnmstout: any results? | 09:47 |
| shawnmstout | same results | 09:47 |
| roadmap | saminlinux: I prefer Rhythm Box and VLC for video. However VLC probably can play WMAs. I wouldn't see why it couldnt. | 09:47 |
| sd32 | have they come up with a functional clipboard manager yet? | 09:47 |
| shawnmstout | change to nv? | 09:47 |
| Gnea | yeah | 09:47 |
| saminlinux | will check that out roadmap. thank you | 09:47 |
| Eevee | probably shouldn't have the router plugged into the outlet controlled by a wall switch | 09:47 |
| roadmap | saminlinux: you're welcome. And if you can't play wmas then there are plenty of tools to convert them. | 09:47 |
| Shinu | mweh | 09:48 |
| Gnea | Eevee: lol | 09:48 |
| Shinu | It’s up now, night | 09:48 |
| saminlinux | thank you guys esp Gnea, Eevee | 09:48 |
| Eevee | np | 09:48 |
| shawnmstout | nope | 09:48 |
| Gnea | saminlinux: cheers | 09:48 |
| Eevee | Gnea: someone put that outlet right next to the coax! not my fault | 09:48 |

| shawnmstout | ya, ill try mandriva, and if that doesnt work, well im back to windows | 09:51 |
| roadmap | shawnmstout: perhaps ArchLinux or Gentoo. They both have similar philosophys for doing things from scratch, and plenty of tutorials and aid to help. | 09:51 |
| shawnmstout | tried archlinux, same thing | 09:51 |

| ziroday | EnginA: ah | 09:59 |
| EnginA | ziroday: ok now it looks like it is updating fine | 10:00 |

| EnginA | ziroday: then I tried to change the mirror... and at that point I believe I've copied some gutsy source.list over my hardy one | 10:01 |
| ziroday | EnginA: great, please do sudo aptitude update, sudo aptitude safe-upgrade then sudo aptitude dist-upgrade | 10:01 |

| Blodskur | Using it through Wubi too. | 10:20 |
| Teknkik | My ubuntu is just like Mac OS X :D | 10:20 |
| sky_1 | because unix like os's ? | 10:21 |
| ziroday | Blodskur: you need to add your windows partition to fstab to have it automatically mounted at boot | 10:21 |
| ziroday | !fstab | Blodskur | 10:21 |
| ubottu | Blodskur: The /etc/fstab file indicates how drive partitions are to be used or otherwise integrated into the file system. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Fstab and http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/fstab.html and !Partitions | 10:21 |

| Hedge|Hog | why is the default gnome desktop in ubuntu such a resource hog in comparison with for example sabayon? on my box, a core 2 duo, both cores idle around 10 % in gnome system monitor on the jaunty live cd, while they idle around 2-3 % with compiz activated on a sabayon live cd in gnome | 10:30 |
| Hedge|Hog | (in gnome system monitor also) | 10:30 |
| === dereine[OFF] is now known as dereine | ||
| Patrique | ok i got it... thx:) | 10:30 |
| iSunny | Hedge|Hog: Ya... I don't understand you | 10:30 |
| Turnni | umm when i boot with ubuntu my keyboard doesnt work o.O | 10:31 |
| Turnni | however in bios and in help it does | 10:31 |
| Hedge|Hog | iSunny: the gnome desktop in sabayon seems much easier on the cpu | 10:31 |
| Slart | Hedge|Hog: no idea.. might be graphics driver related.. or some other service running on ubuntu and not sabayon.. on my machine the installed system barely registers when idling | 10:31 |
| Severian | Turnni, is it a USB keyboard? | 10:31 |
| Hedge|Hog | Slart: it shouldnt be like that then? | 10:31 |
| Turnni | no | 10:31 |
| Slart | Hedge|Hog: I really can't say.. but I don't see that behaviour on my machine.. | 10:32 |
| Hedge|Hog | Slart: its not that you notice it when running other programs or so, but its quite a big difference between 10-15% load on idle on both cores and just 2-3% | 10:33 |
| Slart | Hedge|Hog: when I run the system-monitor it is the process that is using the most cpu cycles.. and that's running azureus, music playing etc.. | 10:33 |
| archman | Can I remove gnome-dbg (because I want to remove Evolution) if I use xfce, but Gnome is still installed and using some of it's apps? | 10:33 |
| Slart | Hedge|Hog: you might want to check if ubuntu lowers the frequency on your cpus.. that makes the percentage go up | 10:33 |
| Hedge|Hog | well, i know that, but its in gnome system monitor on both distributions | 10:33 |
| Hedge|Hog | nope, both desktops with the cpugovernor set to performance first | 10:34 |
| Slart | Hedge|Hog: apart from that there isn't really much we can say about why your system behaves the way it does.. if you feel sabayon is snappier and more responsive then by all means use that | 10:34 |
| Turnni | severian: its got 6 pins idk what its called | 10:35 |
| Hedge|Hog | allright, thats what i thought youd answer.. | 10:35 |
| Viking667 | damn. | 10:36 |
| Viking667 | Oh, sorry. | 10:36 |
| Viking667 | My uh, pulseaudio refuses to uh, shut up. | 10:36 |
| Turnni | however my mouse in both usb and whatever the 6pin's called doesnt work when i boot | 10:36 |
| Turnni | o.O | 10:36 |
| Slart | PS2 ? | 10:37 |
| Viking667 | I've got it on the system but I don't want it to start for my current user. How do I turn it off for that user? | 10:37 |
| Viking667 | Do I wander through gconf looking for a pulseaudio switch? | 10:37 |
| Severian | Turnni, That is eith a PS2 or AT keyboard, then. The small one is PS2 and that is most likely. I have seen a problem on some motherboards with USB keyboards, and I thought I might have been able to help if it had been that. Sorry, I don't have a suggestion for you. | 10:37 |
| kn_mb | hey, is there anybody who can give an link to an helpful howto for installing a irc-hybrid-server? | 10:38 |
| kn_mb | google didn't help that much | 10:38 |
| Hymnosis | where is the firewall in ubuntu? | 10:39 |
| kn_mb | use firestarter to manage your firewall | 10:39 |
| Severian | Hymnosis, iptables | 10:39 |
| kn_mb | it is an gui | 10:39 |
| Hymnosis | thanks | 10:39 |
| Slart | !ufw | 10:39 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about ufw | 10:39 |
| Turnni | severian: what about my usb mouse? | 10:39 |
| Slart | huh..no ufw factoid | 10:39 |
| Slart | !firewall | 10:39 |
| ubottu | Ubuntu, like any other linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'ufw' command (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Uncomplicated_Firewall_ufw), or 'iptables' (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo). GUI applications such as Firestarter/Gufw (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE) also exist | 10:39 |
| Sergeant_Pony | is there a way to have firestarter run after login? | 10:40 |
| Slart | !session | Sergeant_Pony | 10:40 |
| ubottu | Sergeant_Pony: To add programs to start up when you log into your Gnome session go to System>Preferences>Sessions and use the Startup Programs tab. For more information, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AddingProgramToSessionStartup - See !boot for starting non-interactive programs at boot | 10:40 |
| Sergeant_Pony | Slart, even tho a password is needed to run it? | 10:41 |
| Slart | Sergeant_Pony: but firestarter is just a gui to setup the firewall.. it isn't a firewall in itself.. it's already running when you boot | 10:41 |
| Sergeant_Pony | Slart, that's how I monitor what's going on with my inet connection | 10:41 |
| Slart | Sergeant_Pony: then you have to work some more.. you can make sudo not require a password for firestarter.. or use some other mechanism.. there are few.. | 10:42 |
| Sergeant_Pony | Slart, ok thanks | 10:42 |
| kn_mb | please i need a sample config-file for irc-hybrid-server | 10:42 |

| harlemdavvey | how can i install FluxBox in ubuntu 9.04?? | 10:44 |
| harlemdavvey | guys could anybody help me in telling me how to install a window manager in my ubuntu 9.04?? | 10:45 |
| Hymnosis | sudo apt-get install fluxbox | 10:45 |
| harlemdavvey | omg thx! | 10:45 |
| Severian | Probably better would be sudo apt-get install fluxbox fluxconf | 10:46 |
| harlemdavvey | guys do you use gnome, kde or a lighter window manager? | 10:46 |
| Viking667 | hm. Can't remove pulseaudio, as several packages say they depend upon it, too. | 10:46 |
| Severian | harlemdavvey, yes, usually. | 10:46 |
| Viking667 | I use kde here on Mandriva, though on Ubuntu, I use the Gnome default of metacity. | 10:47 |
| jbaker | what file does ubuntu store keyboad shortcuts in ? - i have a backup of my home directory and need to restore... | 10:47 |
| Severian | harlemdavvey, I use those and one that is not lighter. enlightenment. | 10:47 |
| harlemdavvey | and have you ever used a lighter environment like enlightenment, fluxbox, ...?? | 10:47 |
| mucku_mucku | Hey there I have an old Samsung R50 laptop running dualboot ubuntu 9.04 / XP. Compared to XP i have 70% of the battery life in Jaunty (even with powertop). What could be the cause for this? | 10:48 |
| harlemdavvey | i would love to use a sort-of -alternative window manager but i really cannot find some guides | 10:48 |
| Severian | harlemdavvey, openbox is my current preference for a lightweight manager. Install crunchbang. It is Ubuntu customized for openbox. | 10:48 |
| andruk | im going to be playing around with X this summer. does anybody know any good books for understanding/programming X? | 10:50 |
| harlemdavvey | is crunchbang installable with terminal command? | 10:53 |
| Severian | harlemdavvey, crunchbang is an installable Linux distro, just like ubuntu. In fact, it is derived from Ubuntu. You boot from the CD and then install from the menu. | 10:55 |
| hbekel | harlemdavvey: sudo apt-get install openbox | 10:56 |

| harlemdavvey | ;) | 10:59 |
| Eevee | you still have to have the OS to install it.. | 10:59 |
| Severian | harlemdavvey, as someone else said, you can install openbox from apt-get. Crunchbang has a nicely configured openbox and is better to start with. But, if you don't have time, then make do. Good luck. | 11:00 |

| Ericson25 | Hey guys , can somebody help me ? i have a problem booting ubuntu 8.04 | 11:12 |
| hakki99 | morning | 11:12 |
| Armageddon | Ericson25: what problem ? | 11:12 |
| raven_ | hi - i am trying to mount an backup image made with partimage - "specify file system..." need help please - tnx... | 11:12 |
| hakki99 | -h | 11:12 |
| SparkyFlary | it says 15.74 gb unallocated | 11:12 |
| bj0rn2 | I use the sftp:// procotol in nautilus and like it alot, but I'd also like to use the sftp "filesystem" in fstab / mount .. is that possible? | 11:12 |
| Eevee | SparkyFlary: huh, what did the xp cd do exactly? | 11:13 |
| Eevee | bj0rn2: you can mount over ssh with sshfs | 11:13 |
| SparkyFlary | Evee: the xp cd said something like theres no hard drive and just told me to restart | 11:13 |
| SparkyFlary | Eevee: do i format the unallocated 15gb? | 11:14 |
| Ericson25 | Armageddon: when i boot ubuntu i get this message:Kinit: no resume image, doing normal boot | 11:14 |
| Eevee | SparkyFlary: could try sticking an ntfs partition in there yeah | 11:14 |
| kabir1 | where will GDM themes be saved? | 11:14 |
| SparkyFlary | Eevee: Gparted doesnt have an option for ntfs though | 11:15 |
| SparkyFlary | it does but it doesnt let me | 11:15 |
| Armageddon | Ericson25: and then ? it sticks there ? | 11:15 |
| Eevee | ugh | 11:15 |
| Slart | Ericson25: I'm not sure but I think that's just for hibernating.. you didn't use hibernate so it doesn't find a memory image to load | 11:16 |
| SparkyFlary | do i make it fat32? | 11:16 |
| bj0rn2 | Eevee: thanks looks exactly what I want, except that mount/fstab doesn't supports the type? (just installed sshfs) | 11:16 |
| Ericson25 | Slart: ok but it dont load ubuntu after doing that | 11:16 |
| Slart | Ericson25: then it's something else that fails.. I don't think that error message has anything to do with it | 11:17 |
| Armageddon | SparkyFlary: yes fat32 is read by xp | 11:17 |
| Eevee | bj0rn2: well it's not a file you're mounting so mount doesn't do it, no. it goes through fuse | 11:17 |
| LS22 | hi | 11:18 |
| SparkyFlary | can i then make that fat32 to ntfs with xp? | 11:18 |
| LS22 | Want free stuff? Go here - http://linktoit.us/freethings/ There is proof on the page (blog link) that it is not a scam. | 11:18 |
| bj0rn2 | Eevee: got that, but isn't cifs also a fuse and still work through standard mount? | 11:18 |
| Armageddon | SparkyFlary: yes you can from the CD | 11:18 |
| jrib | !ot | LS22 | 11:18 |
| ubottu | LS22: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics. Thanks! | 11:18 |
| Armageddon | SparkyFlary: i think when you install XP on that partition it will automaticly format it into NTFS | 11:18 |
| elad` | I want to install all the dictionaries dict looks at locally. Which are they? | 11:19 |
| Eevee | SparkyFlary: you could yes. but if xp doesn't see the *drive* at all then I'm not sure if this will help. it should have at least listed the unrecognized partition | 11:19 |
| Paddy_EIRE | elad`: there are loads.. depends which ones you have installed | 11:19 |
| Ericson25 | Slart:so what can i do? | 11:19 |
| game | hola alquien sabe como configurar el host del openVas server | 11:19 |
| jrib | !es | game | 11:19 |
| ubottu | game: En la mayoría de canales Ubuntu se comunica en inglés. Para ayuda en Español, por favor entre en los canales #ubuntu-es o #kubuntu-es. | 11:19 |
| elad` | Paddy_EIRE, it searches a couple. I want all of them installed, since otherwise, it searches for them online, and that makes each query very slow. | 11:19 |
| Armageddon | Eevee: it should'v listed everything !!! | 11:20 |
| === iSunny is now known as qwertyuiiop | ||
| Slart | Ericson25: you could try using noacpi, noapic and nolapic to see if that improves things | 11:20 |
| SparkyFlary | im going to have to go to sleep. ill try it tomorrow. thanks for the help everyone. | 11:20 |
| Slart | Ericson25: those are kernel switches.. you enter them at the grub boot menu | 11:20 |
| archman | How can I assign a "windows" key to be used like "Hide windows and show desktop"? | 11:21 |
| Eevee | bj0rn2: oh, hm. I think there's kernel support for cifs? | 11:21 |
| elad` | Paddy_EIRE, it searches a couple. I want all of them installed, since otherwise, it searches for them online, and that makes each query very slow. | 11:22 |
| === eugen is now known as Guest34667 | ||
| lianimator | archman: only the windows key? or combinatoin? | 11:22 |
| qwert666 | hi i`m compiling new kernel (wireless-testing) and i`m using old .config , i got some warnings about modules when i loaded the old config ( "symbol value 'm' invalid for ACPI_DOCK" etc.) can i ignore them ? | 11:22 |
| Paddy_EIRE | !repeat | elad` | 11:22 |
| ubottu | elad`: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. You can search https://help.ubuntu.com or http://wiki.ubuntu.com while you wait. Also see !patience | 11:22 |
| bj0rn2 | Eevee: aha that's the diff then I guess. but still I should be able to use sshfs manually then. thanks for the education :) | 11:22 |
| Paddy_EIRE | elad`: yeah well that would depend on your connection to.. just a sec | 11:22 |
| Ericson25 | Slart:ok thanks i will try that | 11:23 |
| Eevee | archman: install compizconfig settings manager; go to general options > key bindings; assign super+whatever to Show Desktop | 11:23 |
| elad` | Paddy_EIRE, it's not slow-slow, but it's slower than operating locally. Noticeably slower. So I want everything to be local. But I don't know what constitutes everything. | 11:23 |
| Armageddon | Do you think the new kernel update will be considered in the updates of ubuntu ? | 11:23 |
| ikonia | Armageddon: what update ? | 11:23 |
| archman | lanimator, only windows key, without and managers, Eevee | 11:23 |
| Eevee | er | 11:24 |
| archman | lianimator^ | 11:24 |
| Paddy_EIRE | elad`: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=145949 | 11:24 |
| archman | any* | 11:24 |
| archman | damn typos | 11:24 |
| Armageddon | ikonia: kernel | 11:24 |
| ikonia | Armageddon: what kernel update though ? | 11:24 |
| Paddy_EIRE | elad`: yeah I used to exclusively use it locally | 11:24 |
| Eevee | archman: doing it with just the key will be a bit more difficult. it's a modifier like ctrl | 11:24 |
| estan | argh. the printer at my family's house has stopped working (intrepid), i can print a CUPS test page fine, but when i try to print a 6 page PDF from evince, it just blinks for a while then stops.. anyone had the same? | 11:24 |
| Armageddon | ikonia: they just released a new version :/ | 11:24 |
| ikonia | Armageddon: who has ? | 11:24 |
| estan | i really need to print this thing (school work) ;/ | 11:25 |
| lianimator | archman: the windows key is called the <Super> key in ubuntu | 11:25 |
| Armageddon | ikonia: dude there is a new kernel release go check it out | 11:25 |
| archman | Eevee, I think it's easy, I just need to know which command is used when I push the "show to desktop" icon... | 11:25 |
| estan | CUPS says the printer is idle and accepting jobs :( | 11:25 |
| archman | lianimator, true ;) | 11:25 |
| ikonia | Armageddon: who has release a new kernel update ? | 11:25 |
| Agion | My sounds don't work on ubuntu. anyone help? | 11:26 |
| Armageddon | ikonia: the kernel team | 11:26 |
| ikonia | Armageddon: do you mean the generic kernel.org kernel release ? | 11:26 |
| Eevee | estan: tried printing from any other app? | 11:26 |
| lianimator | archman: I got it working. | 11:27 |
| koshari1 | Agion do you know what sound card/chip you have? | 11:27 |
| Armageddon | ikonia: yes :/ | 11:27 |
| Armageddon | ikonia: do other teams release new KERNEL ? | 11:27 |
| ikonia | Armageddon: it is very doubtful ubuntu will adopt a kernel release update, they rarley have done in the past unless there is something critical | 11:27 |
| lianimator | archman: run gconf, scroll all the way down, look for "Hide all windows..." | 11:27 |
| ikonia | Armageddon: yes, funny enough , distributions and pacakges release kernel updates, hence why I was asking "who" | 11:27 |
| lianimator | archman: then just hit Super key | 11:27 |
| Agion | kosharl1: some intel's integrated in my MSI motherboard | 11:27 |
| albech_ | can anyone recommend a good editor with C-syntax recognition? | 11:28 |
| Armageddon | ikonia: oh ok :/ they shouldnt call it kernel, but iv heard it makes the boot faster by 6 seconds ! | 11:28 |
| Eevee | albech_: vim | 11:28 |
| darkex | notepad++ | 11:28 |
| estan | Eevee: well yes, i tried printing from acrobat on the windows machine upstairs (i have samba configured on the printer down here). | 11:28 |
| ikonia | Armageddon: ha ha ha, I doubt that VERY much | 11:28 |
| ikonia | Armageddon: boot time is machine and configuration specific | 11:28 |
| lianimator | archman: oops, don't run gconf. run Keyboard Shortcuts! sorry. | 11:28 |
| sky_1 | ikonia: can you help me to set flash to working under Opera ? (i cant install / reinstall flashplugin-nonfree it doesnt work) | 11:28 |
| axel_ | Hello! I've some problems with netbook remix: When switching the desktop mode from "classical desktop" to "Ubuntu-Netbook-Desktop" the GNOME panels remain displayed and are layed over the "netbook interface". How to fix that? | 11:28 |
| Armageddon | ikonia: i meant the kernel load | 11:28 |
| estan | Eevee: the same thing happens, it blinks for a while then stops, and cups shows the job as finished... this all used to work before (both from windows upstairs and locally).. don't know what has happened, i haven't upgraded any packages (though i did just now to see if it would fix it). | 11:29 |
| Eevee | lianimator: that won't work. <Super> isn't a keypress | 11:29 |
| ikonia | Armageddon: the kernel load is dependant on individual machines/hardware and packaging - so as I said "thats nonsese" | 11:29 |
| ikonia | sky_1: what's the problem when you try to install the flashplugin-nonfree package | 11:29 |
| lianimator | Eevee: Super_L works. | 11:29 |
| Armageddon | ikonia: well thats what i'v heard at least :D | 11:29 |
| ikonia | Armageddon: I very much doubt that | 11:29 |
| estan | Eevee: hrm. weird i just tried from gedit and it works. | 11:29 |
| Armageddon | ikonia: ok :D | 11:29 |
| archman | lianimator, do you know a run command for "keyboard Shortcuts"? I'm on xfce, don't have it in my menu... | 11:29 |
| lianimator | Eevee: likewise, Control_L works like pressing control | 11:29 |
| estan | Eevee: guess it's something with PDF printing. | 11:29 |
| estan | Eevee: i'll see if i can get acrobat installed here.. | 11:30 |
| sky_1 | ikonia: nothing happend...opera ignore it....i installed flash to firefox copying libfhlasplayer.so to plugins ...but i want it to opera too | 11:30 |
| Paddy_EIRE | estan: or evince is just not pointed at your printer | 11:30 |
| lianimator | archman: never use xfce.. do you have metacity? | 11:30 |
| ikonia | sky_1: why did you need to copy anything for flash, flashplugin-nonfree works for firefox | 11:30 |
| Eevee | estan: or a problem with evince. could try opening it with something else | 11:30 |
| estan | Paddy_EIRE: yea, it's pointed at the right printer. and i tried both 300 and 600 dpi. | 11:30 |
| estan | Eevee: yea. | 11:30 |
| Paddy_EIRE | estan: get all the usual suspects out of the way first before you go app install crazy | 11:31 |
| Paddy_EIRE | :P | 11:31 |
| sky_1 | ikonia: no after distro upgrade installing with apt doesnt work for me so i made it :X | 11:31 |

| kindofabuzz | tried to make WoW run in windowed mode and it crashed X, now I have no sound at all. help? | 11:31 |
| estan | is acroread in medibuntu? | 11:31 |
| Eevee | lianimator: if I press and release any modifier alone in Keyboard Shortcuts it cheerfully does nothing | 11:31 |
| ikonia | sky_1: you needed to debug that problem then rather than copy files around | 11:31 |
| Paddy_EIRE | estan: yes | 11:31 |
| linduxed | what tool do i use to regulate mixer levels? and i dont mean stuff like PCM and such but bass and treble | 11:32 |
| estan | Paddy_EIRE: alright. | 11:32 |
| archman | lianimator, yes | 11:32 |
| sky_1 | ikonia: so what i must do ? | 11:32 |
| Agion | koshari1: now they work.. strange? probably there's something broken anyway | 11:32 |
| lianimator | archman: um. do you have gconf-editor ? | 11:32 |
| lianimator | archman: or some kind of configuration editor. | 11:32 |
| archman | yes | 11:33 |
| lianimator | archman: run that. go to apps/metacity/global_keybindings | 11:33 |
| bassliner | anyone an idea why my links still open in firefox after changing to evolution in "preferred applications"? | 11:33 |

| markupdude | i installed samba and now able to file transfer between my ubuntu and xp PCs over my home network. But along with that i would like to share/read/write a second HDD that is in the Ubuntu machine. so when i mount it and share it it becomes only accessible for root | 12:03 |
| ubuntiana | #ubuntu-it | 12:03 |
| markupdude | so even though i can see that HDD from my XP machine i can write anything to it | 12:04 |
| koshari1 | markupdude what are the folders permissions? | 12:04 |
| markupdude | PS - i share a drive/folder by right clicking on it | 12:04 |

| luke__ | hi | 12:04 |
| matreya6 | userek, http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/downloadmirrors#bt <= See how you can download 4 different versions? (32bit desktp/ alternate and AMD64bit Desktop/ Alternae) | 12:04 |

| luke__ | are all linux OS like this or are there faster ones? | 12:05 |

| matreya6 | luke_: I have yet to find a complete desktop OS that boots faster than Jaunty. WinXP takes more than 3x loading time until desktop is displayed on my box. | 12:05 |
| koshari1 | markupdude the folder is only selected to let groups and users read that dir, | 12:06 |
| IDOC-7846 | I've not found ubuntu to be slower than xp, personally. Matter of fact, it returns work units faster in folding@home than the same machine running XP does. | 12:06 |
| estan | Eevee: it was a problem with evince, printed fine in acrobat. thanks for the tip. | 12:06 |
| markupdude | koshari1: i have tried changing permissions and ownership it does let me do so | 12:06 |
| luke__ | hmm i installed jaunty on ext4 | 12:06 |
| th0r | markupdude: it makes configuring samba a lot easier. I was going to suggest you check the permissions of the shares in swat. | 12:06 |
| luke__ | boot time was fine | 12:06 |
| luke__ | but the desktop feels slow | 12:06 |
| luke__ | not really snappy | 12:06 |
| FloodBot3 | luke__: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 12:06 |
| markupdude | koshari1: that HDD is formatted as fat | 12:06 |
| markupdude | th0r: ok will do so | 12:07 |
| userek | matreya6: though i don't see how the text mode installer would work better ;), i guess its a bug because after searching a bit there are people with the same issue, and they claim their cd's orked on other machines | 12:07 |
| Starcraftmazter | Hello. I can't seem to get apache/cgi/perl working, apache serves perl files in cgi-bin as text | 12:07 |
| IDOC-7846 | Luke_, perhaps your graphics arent up to par? | 12:07 |
| matreya6 | luke_luke_: Try disabling some of the eyecandy, or look for an optimized graphical driver | 12:07 |
| lem_ | anyone here tried to run ubuntu in a vm? | 12:07 |
| koshari1 | markupdude what about the mount placeholder? (the foldername its mounted at? | 12:07 |
| luke__ | firefox is horribly slow on ubuntu | 12:07 |
| koshari1 | luke__ it flies here | 12:07 |
| koshari1 | luke__ but i have a e2220 cpu | 12:07 |
| markupdude | koshari1: ah i was actually chaning permissions of the place holder all the time, that is /media/storage | 12:07 |
| matreya6 | luke_: Firefox runs smooth here, on WinXP it takes longer to load. | 12:08 |
| markupdude | the actual drive is /dev/hda5 | 12:08 |
| IDOC-7846 | Luke_, I'm not having any of those problems. Did you do an upgrade to your latest version or a new install? | 12:08 |
| koshari1 | markupdude there will be no permissians on the fat drive | 12:08 |
| markupdude | koshari1: should i change the actual thing's permission/ownership | 12:08 |
| markupdude | humm | 12:08 |
| markupdude | i should try that | 12:08 |
| lflashlnzl | why do i get such cr@p speeds on bit torrents | 12:08 |
| lflashlnzl | but in windows its fine! | 12:08 |
| koshari1 | markupdude i think you should unmount the drive, chmod the mountpoint them mount it again | 12:09 |
| matreya6 | userek, In that case the "bug" is tied to some aspect of your hardware. It runs (and installs) great on my box | 12:09 |
| Sebboh | Good morning. I'm using the latest LiveCD installer (9.04 Desktop) and I'd like to use an expert installer. How do I do that? | 12:09 |
| luke__ | new install | 12:09 |
| matreya6 | Sebboh, the Alternate version should give you all the options you want | 12:09 |
| harlemdavvey | does anybody use FluxBox????? | 12:09 |
| koshari1 | markupdude test the permissians by writing to the folder ar a user rather than root | 12:09 |
| harlemdavvey | please i need some help with IRSSI | 12:09 |
| matreya6 | harlemdavvey, Yes, I do, on my old P3-laptop, why? | 12:10 |
| IDOC-7846 | thats the best thing to do, Luke_ . ive never had any problems when i do a fresh install. all problems ive encountered have always come from upgrading a distro. | 12:10 |
| harlemdavvey | matreya6: i absolutely need some help.. i cannot use it!:) | 12:10 |
| lianimator | harlemdavvey: #irssi? | 12:10 |
| userek | matreya6: so you say that if it works on your computer and doesn't on someone's else its not a bug? | 12:10 |
| proxxi | /nick bittin | 12:10 |
| matreya6 | harlemdavvey, did you try reading the manpages on the program? | 12:10 |
| natrixnatrix89 | I'm just wondering.. If I have a partition with win and another partition with ubuntu. When I want to reinstall win - wouldn't it break the grub bootloader and would I loose ability to log on ubuntu? | 12:10 |
| harlemdavvey | guys none is answering there on the channel.. | 12:11 |
| matreya6 | natrixnatrix89, Yes, it would | 12:11 |
| === settimio80 is now known as ubuntuwin | ||
| natrixnatrix89 | is there a solution? | 12:11 |
| matreya6 | !patience > harlemdavvey | 12:11 |
| ubottu | harlemdavvey, please see my private message | 12:11 |
| userek | its not the hardware that is buggy, its the software | 12:11 |
| natrixnatrix89 | matreya6: is there a solution? | 12:11 |
| === IDOC-7846 is now known as IDOC-7846_ | ||
| matreya6 | natrixnatrix89, yes, you can just reinstall grub through a Live CD. | 12:12 |
| m3dlg | I screwed my graphics up and now when i boot it just flickers and the screen is filled with lines, before freezing. I wanted to reset the graphics to like new | 12:12 |
| koshari1 | natrixnatrix89 you would jusr re-run grub from the live cd | 12:12 |
| matreya6 | m3dlg, try booting from a live CD and fix your config files from there | 12:12 |
| natrixnatrix89 | matreya6: and the ext3 filesystem would just work fine? thanks... cool! :) | 12:13 |

| sabayonweb_75208 | are ultimate edition dead? | 12:13 |
| jorgerosa | Anyone to write articles (for free, for Ubuntu OS, for a website) about game reviews? Thanks in advance. | 12:13 |
| matreya6 | natrixnatrix89, Of course it would, Ext3 is very stable. | 12:13 |
| koshari1 | sabayonweb_ its called superOS now | 12:13 |
| natrixnatrix89 | matreya6: thanks for info! ;) | 12:13 |
| NativeAngels | whats the min spec pc you can run a vps on | 12:13 |
| matreya6 | jorgerosa, happypenguin is a treasure trove when it comes to game reveiws | 12:14 |
| jorgerosa | true | 12:14 |
| m3dlg | matreya6: i have the recovery option during boot and this looks like it's going to work, but i was finding my ati setting would not save and would default to single screen in clone mode (duelhead) everytime i rebooted. | 12:14 |
| sabayonweb_75208 | koshari1: cant find it | 12:14 |
| jorgerosa | matreya6: But its something (somehow) different | 12:15 |
| matreya6 | jorgerosa, I don't see why we would need a game review specially geared towards a specific distro, like Ubuntu. But if you are trying to "sell" Ubuntu to gamers, than you'd have to investigate what appeals to your public , before writing a raging review about marvels like Globulation 2, Battle for Wesnoth and games like Fish Fillets (all great games) | 12:16 |
| koshari1 | sabayonweb_75208 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:SF007/Super_Ubuntu | 12:17 |
| zack | Battle for Wesnoth - epic | 12:17 |
| matreya6 | m3dlg, did yu get an error message while trying to save your ATI settings? | 12:17 |
| jorgerosa | matreya6: like i said, its a bit different, and "game reviews" is only one section. We will have many more. | 12:18 |
| sabayonweb_75208 | koshari1: that looked, well boring... wanted to check out the design in ultimate :-P' | 12:18 |
| notguest | matreya6: zack jorgerosa: #ubuntu-gaming is dedicated to ubuntu gaming matters, if you want to join there | 12:18 |
| bassliner | hm, this really seems bugged, even completely reconfiguring evolution didn't help | 12:18 |
| === eugen is now known as Guest66987 | ||
| matreya6 | m3dlg, many config files are only writable as root, so using sudo when editing them might help ;-) | 12:18 |
| jorgerosa | notguest: wow, i dunno that. Thanks, ill give a try :D | 12:18 |
| koshari1 | sabayonweb its just a dizzy wiff a lot more packages on the disc by default | 12:19 |
| koshari1 | sabayonweb what are you actually looking ofr? | 12:19 |

| sabayonweb_75208 | koshari1: im using ubuntu right now on my own computer, wanted to try ultimate edition and sabayon | 12:20 |
| m3dlg | matreya6: no, i was finding that i would have to reset my setting on each boot. I used the same option i was recommended for a similar issue on this compouter (a netboot) the command was ' sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg' and this worked on the netbook, but has just made my pc worse | 12:20 |
| m3dlg | I suspected my issue was read/write permmissions - but not untill i had screwed it up | 12:21 |
| m3dlg | the fix xorg thing in recovery didn't work either | 12:21 |
| koshari1 | sabayonweb well the user experiance for super os (prev known as ultimate) will be no diff to you installing all the packages yourself, as for sabyon go for it | 12:21 |
| Sebboh | matreya6, I see. ..Uh, is there no way I can at least select which packages I want to install, on 9.04 Desktop installer? | 12:22 |
| dumb_dumb | guys any here could tell me how to install xen on ubuntu jaunty server edition? | 12:22 |
| markupdude | koshari1: sucks, as soon as i mount the drive the mount point becomes rwx r-x r-x again :( and i reverts back to root user even though i changed ownership to a non-root onr | 12:22 |
| sabayonweb_75208 | :-D | 12:22 |
| koshari1 | markupdude did you mount it with read write switches in the fstab entry? | 12:23 |
| markupdude | koshari1: just to confirm i can use other non-root user home folders, so this is | 12:23 |
| matreya6 | Sebboh, I don't believe there is a way when it has started, but there might be a startup option to have everything installed manually, with all options open...Try looking at the install option in the first menu... | 12:23 |
| markupdude | koshari1: i have this in fdtab to mount it on start /dev/sda5 /media/storage vfat users 0 0 | 12:24 |
| markupdude | should that users part be something else | 12:24 |
| bubba | hi | 12:24 |
| koshari1 | markupdude add the rw switch to mount it read/write. | 12:24 |
| markupdude | like /dev/sda5 /media/storage vfat users rw 0 0 ? | 12:25 |
| markupdude | or ..... rw users .... | 12:25 |
| matreya6 | m3dlg, Did you do a clean install or an upgrade? | 12:26 |
| Sebboh | matreya6, there isn't an option like that available via a menu, although I wonder if I can manually type something in.. Oh well, I'll just download the alternate installer. ..I just read that the regular installer CD doesn't offer ext4 filesystems, either. | 12:26 |
| m3dlg | matreya6: i'll get back to you when i've made a bootable flashdrive and try to recover it | 12:26 |
| shashwatpns | can any experienced person help me in installing windows after i ve installed ubuntu???? | 12:26 |
| th0r | markupdude: I think there should be a comma 'rw,users' | 12:26 |
| m3dlg | matreya6: upgrade | 12:26 |
| markupdude | th0r: ah right | 12:26 |
| bubba | ping: unknown host... anyone has a solution for me? | 12:27 |
| markupdude | but this feels good, to be able to share files between my both PC | 12:27 |
| markupdude | i see linux actually expands my knowledge | 12:27 |
| th0r | bubba: use a good IP address or web address | 12:27 |
| bubba | i used google | 12:27 |
| matreya6 | m3dlg, Some of these problems can be caused by conflicting settings from old versions. Is your display only unreadable under X, or is the regular console unreadable as well? | 12:28 |
| bubba | ping http://www.google.com | 12:28 |
| BurningSebra | anyone that can recomend me a program for ubuntu as DAEMON tools would work in windows? | 12:28 |
| th0r | bubba: nope....you can't ping the http....try ping google.com | 12:28 |
| Akallabeth | hi all | 12:29 |
| bubba | let me see | 12:29 |
| matreya6 | shashwatpns, Do you have some unpartitioned space left on your HDD? Otherwise you need to create some using gparted. | 12:29 |
| m3dlg | matreya6: it works until the loading logo has reached the end and the screen changes to the desktop, | 12:29 |
| matreya6 | BurningSebra, Yes, I use GCDEmu | 12:29 |
| bubba | it says 64bytes... and now its just looping. cant even stop it | 12:30 |
| BurningSebra | matreaya6: im gonna take a look, thx | 12:30 |
| koshari1 | markupdude heres an example /dev/sda3 /mnt/WindowsFAT32 vfat quiet,defaults,rw 0 0 | 12:30 |
| matreya6 | m3dlg, In that case you can solve the problem in console mode, just drop to a terminal using Ctrl + Alt + F2 or so. | 12:30 |
| m3dlg | tryed that, but i'll try another reboot then let you know | 12:30 |
| m3dlg | i can get into consol via recovery and select consol with networking | 12:31 |
| matreya6 | m3dlg, did you try to update your box after you have installed everything? Updates can go a long way in this. | 12:31 |
| bubba | thOr.. any thoughts? | 12:31 |
| m3dlg | the update was done after about 6 months of normal usage and was ok before (had some minor issues with graphics but nothing too serious) | 12:32 |
| Co_imot3 | halo semua nya :D | 12:33 |
| shashwatpns | metreya6 : yes i do have | 12:34 |
| th0r | bubba: type control-C to stop it | 12:34 |
| Blodskur | I'm trying to remove a mount from the places menu with little success. | 12:34 |
| m3dlg | matreya6: should i try the 'netroot recovery option? | 12:34 |
| matreya6 | BurningSebra, check out this pastebin to see what packages to use (output of apt-search cdemu on my box): http://www.pastebin.ca/1418180 | 12:34 |
| th0r | bubba: then type 'man ping' to learn how to use ping | 12:35 |
| bubba | good man | 12:35 |
| BurningSebra | matreya6: not in repositories. im very new to ubuntu. if you could help me nistalling it i would apreciate it alot. | 12:35 |
| dumb_dumb | how to force rebooting on jaunty? | 12:36 |
| dumb_dumb | i used reboot it seems not working | 12:36 |
| HttpError | sudo shutdown NOW | 12:36 |
| HttpError | i think | 12:36 |
| markupdude | koshari1: umm tried using those fstab read write options, even after reboot no :( | 12:37 |
| znh | dumb_dumb, init 0 | 12:37 |
| th0r | HttpError: it is shutdown -r to force a reboot | 12:37 |
| znh | dumb_dumb, that will shutdown though, not reboot | 12:37 |
| HttpError | ah | 12:37 |
| HttpError | ty th0r | 12:37 |
| dumb_dumb | i need to reboot the machine since not to poweroff | 12:37 |
| koshari1 | markupdude sorry mate beats me ? | 12:37 |
| matreya6 | BurningSebra, did you enable all repositories (not only the Canonical supported ones)? You can also allow backports in your software sources through synaptic. That should give you access to the 8.10 package if it has been backported to Jaunty yet. | 12:37 |
| bubba | does a static ip address need to be configured both in the box and cable modem? I have my router configured with my static address and the box left with dhcp. Is that how it should be? | 12:38 |
| th0r | dumb_dumb: in a terminal type 'shutdown -r now' and it should reboot the computer | 12:38 |
| th0r | dumb_dumb: that is 'sudo shutdown -r now' | 12:38 |
| Severian | bubba, that is usually fine. | 12:38 |
| dumb_dumb | the system is going to reboot | 12:39 |
| bubba | usually meaning sometimes something can happen? | 12:39 |
| matreya6 | Severian, bubba, a box with dhcp could be problematic when you want to run servers on your box through NAT. | 12:39 |
| dumb_dumb | but i still can connect to the box | 12:39 |
| bubba | thats what i figured. So should I configure em both with the static address or do the box and leave the modem dchp | 12:40 |
| markupdude | koshari1: no worries, as last resort i might have to use root user, no harm though, its only me as the user.. btw what to i type to check currently mounted stuffs | 12:40 |
| shashwatpns | has anyone here installed windows after ubuntu if u have please guide me | 12:40 |
| Severian | matreya6, yep. I did say usually. If the router is going to need to forward traffic to your box that is initiated from outside, a static IP may be needed. But, most people don't do that. | 12:40 |
| BurningSebra | matreya6: i se the names, but where do i find these packages? synaptic package manager does not find the packages | 12:40 |
| chouchou | Hello, I don't know what I am doing wrong, I have install joomla on my hosting server http://www.wamphi.com/pairjobs the script run correctly there, but when I run the same script on my local PC using Ubuntu, php5.2 I have fatal error, undefined functions. I even switch register global on. but later turned it back off. what do need to install or configure to solve this issue? | 12:41 |
| th0r | shashwatpns: you will lose grub if you reinstall windows AFTER linux. There is a way to reinstall grub, but it isn't easy | 12:41 |
| matreya6 | BurningSebra, did you try reloading the repository in Synaptic after you have added the backports option? | 12:41 |
| dumb_dumb | any idea how can this thing not rebooting | 12:41 |
| bubba | ok thanks | 12:41 |

| Barbarella | markupdude:df -h | 12:43 |
| matreya6 | dumb_dumb, If you are onsite next to the box you can try a "sudo shutdown -h now" instead, if you are connecting remotely, *don't do this!* | 12:43 |

| markupdude | if i format my second hdd as ext3 i won't able to edit/write to it from windows via samba right? | 12:44 |
| BurningSebra | matreya6: gonna check out the toher stuff, thx so far :) | 12:45 |
| th0r | markupdude: you should be able to write to an ext3 drive via samba from anything | 12:45 |
| Severian | markupdude, No problem doing that, actually. | 12:46 |
| matreya6 | BurningSebra, here's the homepage for cdemu: http://cdemu.sourceforge.net/ | 12:46 |
| markupdude | th0r: ah! then i might expect my permission problems solved? | 12:46 |
| m3dlg | matreya6: i'm just downloading the iso of ubuntu so i can make a bootable drive to use a gui - i cant handle the console too much at the moment | 12:46 |
| markupdude | oh btw i used gparted to partitio my extra HDD, first made the unpartitioned space as a secondary drive, it became hda1, and a hda5 came up, i made that sda5 as a logical fat partition, did i do it right? | 12:46 |
| Severian | markupdude, I don't know the problem, so I won't comment. | 12:47 |
| markupdude | or else i can redo it like delete everything, make the entire drive a primary partiton ext3 | 12:47 |
| shashwatpns | tor0: can you help me | 12:47 |
| matreya6 | BurningSebra, here's the Ubuntu repositories (keep in mind that the 64-bits version is not supported yet, allthough I *do* run it) :http://cdemu.sourceforge.net/ | 12:47 |
| th0r | shashwatpns: you will have to find a windows irc channel for help reinstalling window | 12:47 |
| markupdude | Severian: i am not able to write to that extra hdd from my windows XP, i set permissions via fstab, but it rverts back to unwritable by non-root user as soon as i share it via samba | 12:47 |
| markupdude | Severian: if i made sense | 12:48 |
| matreya6 | BurningSebra, sorry, last link should have been: https://launchpad.net/~cdemu/+archive/ppa | 12:48 |
| th0r | markupdude: that sounds like a permissions issue in samba, not in the os | 12:48 |
| markupdude | th0r: humm... so how do i? | 12:48 |
| th0r | markupdude: I used to share a vfat drive on a linux machine via samba, so I know it can be done | 12:49 |
| markupdude | should adding it like a share in smb.conf helo | 12:49 |
| markupdude | i tried that also, i can try again with right parameters | 12:49 |
| matreya6 | m3dlg, I'am sorry to say this, but if you have problems using X due to a faulty graphics driver, the console, or terminal is essential to fix it. | 12:49 |
| th0r | markupdude: yes, you add it as a share in samba. I have used swat to configure samba since I first found swat....so I can't help much with the conf file directly | 12:49 |
| markupdude | th0r: ah then i have swat installed let me see | 12:50 |
| Severian | markupdude, not really. The setup you describe is common. People mount filesystems on Linux, share them with Samba and write to them from Windows all the time. I use to do it when I had Windows here. I used XFS and not ext3, but that is not an important distinction. | 12:50 |

| xevil | Cantcme: ask your ? | 12:52 |
| Severian | markupdude, http://localhost:901 | 12:52 |
| Cantcme | i updated my alsa to version 1.0.20 from 1.0.18, everything was fine, then i updated OSS to 4.1 and i have no sound now :( | 12:52 |
| matreya6 | Cantcme, OSS is quite outdated, you can configure your Ubuntu to use ALSA instead. | 12:53 |
| Cantcme | i went to system -> preferences -> sound and chose ALSA for everything and it still doesn't work | 12:54 |
| Cantcme | and aplay -l gives aplay: device_list:217: no soundcards found... | 12:54 |

| m3dlg | when i screwed it up it did back up the old file and appended the date to it | 12:57 |
| matreya6 | Cantcme, managing 2 soundcards is finnicky in ubuntu and in Linux in general. The link that th0r gave you seems like a good point to start... | 12:58 |
| Cantcme | ive pretty much done all that from that link | 12:58 |
| Cantcme | but i only wany the Intel sound card to work, i dont want the sound from my graphics card | 12:58 |
| th0r | markupdude: you can only configure samba via swat if you are logged into swat as root. Unfortunately I can't tell you how to do that here | 12:58 |
| Severian | markupdude, I don't use swat. I can't help you much there. I just edit the config file directly. /etc/samba/smb.conf | 12:59 |
| Paulo39 | i have a disk with a partition of 150Gb in ext3, another partition of 3Gb in linux-swap and 100Gb unallocated. if i install windows, it will format just that space unallocated or it will erase and format all the disk? | 12:59 |
| matreya6 | m3dlg, try to copy the file with the date appended to it to the config file ehere thing are in a jumble. | 12:59 |

| Fzang | I totally don't get the partitioner | 13:00 |
| Cantcme | see how it says kernel drive in use: oss_hdaudio, shouldnt that be something else? | 13:00 |
| markupdude | Barbarella: ah yes please :) | 13:01 |
| Cantcme | that was lspci -v | 13:01 |
| markupdude | so far i have my home folders shared | 13:01 |
| Barbarella | what do you want to share | 13:01 |
| markupdude | now just need to add my /dev/hda5 as a share Barbarella | 13:01 |
| eshat | Hi all,... what is the sed command, to remove the first 5 letters, if string begins with 0-9 ? | 13:01 |
| matreya6 | Cantcme, it still seems to use OSS: Kernel driver in use: oss_hdaudio | 13:01 |
| Barbarella | markupdude:ok | 13:01 |
| markupdude | so should i give the original path or the mount point Barbarella | 13:01 |
| m3dlg | matreya6: ok will try that, i'll obviously try to back up the duff one to to examine after | 13:01 |
| Cantcme | matreya6, yeh is that the problem? shouldn't it be the ALSA driver or something thats in use? | 13:02 |
| matreya6 | m3dlg, sounds like a smart thing to do :-) | 13:02 |
| Fzang | if I want to install ubuntu, how should / and swap be? logical or primary? | 13:02 |
| Fzang | and should I take start or end of partition? (is that left/right alignment on the table?) | 13:02 |
| matreya6 | Cantcme, some old programs still use OSS. I think ALSA has some kind of bridge for it, can't remember the name though :-( | 13:02 |
| Cantcme | yeh i install the alsa-oss wrapper | 13:03 |
| Cantcme | also when i run alsa-mixer there are no controls in it | 13:03 |
| matreya6 | Fzang, logical is usually the most flexible option, End of partition is mostly the best choice for maintaining compatibility with older Windows versions | 13:04 |
| Severian | Cantcme, That means there are no audio devices that also controls. | 13:04 |
| m3dlg | matreya6: i will stay here while i do this, i just wanted to say i appreciate your help, very kind and a big thank you, i also understand and appreciate you are busy helping others too, and all this unpaid. it's a really kind thing to do, i also have help others with things i have learned as a part of my own development in linux when there was no-one else able to help. i am ultamately still a noobie here. | 13:04 |

| Cantcme | /etc/X11/xorg.conf ? | 13:06 |
| matreya6 | Cantcme, did you try both "alsamixer -c0" and "alsamixer -c1" ? One of these commands should give you some sliders. That way you know which Audio card ALSA picks as default one. | 13:06 |
| Severian | Cantcme, I don't have a quick answer for you. Basically, you need to load drivers so alsa can control your audio. | 13:06 |

| znh | Alexia_Death, possibly APM | 13:09 |
| m3dlg | matreya6: i have it, but i need to get root permission to alter it, and i am using mint linux live as my ubuntu disk would not run (i also needed to do this from a portable dvdreader too!!) my bios refused to see anyother disks for some reason | 13:10 |
| Alexia_Death | znh: its a laptop | 13:10 |
| Cantcme | m3dlg, sudo -i for root | 13:10 |
| Twigathy_ | w/ 35 | 13:10 |
| Twigathy_ | no | 13:10 |
| th0r | aar: open a terminal, type 'tail -f /var/log/messages' then plug in the phone. You should see the mount point for the device show up as the system recognizes it | 13:10 |
| znh | Alexia_Death, yeah.. you made that clear a few sec ago too | 13:10 |
| matreya6 | m3dlg, try to edit it as root using sudo or the method suggested by the Mint Live CD. I have no experience using Mint | 13:11 |
| Alexia_Death | and after some recent update the fans are not spun up enaugh enay mor | 13:11 |
| Alexia_Death | the laptop overheats and shuts down. | 13:11 |
| m3dlg | it feels muchg like ubuntu, nice touch in the file menu it has open folder as root option and the folder turns red to warn u | 13:11 |
| Severian | Cantme, sound has always worked fine for me on Ubuntu, except for a few systems where I had to add a module with modprobe. I don't know what else to suggest. If it was me, I would probably try installing Fedora or Puppy linux and seeing if sound worked. Once I saw if they did any special configuration, I would reinstall Ubuntu and see if I could do the same thing here. There may be simpler solutions, but I am not familiar with | 13:11 |
| Severian | them. | 13:11 |
| aar | th0r, this is what i get: usb 4-2: new full speed USB device using uhci_hcd and address 14 | 13:12 |

| Cantcme | Severian, my sound was working perfectly untill i updated OSS to 4.1 | 13:12 |
| aar | th0r, cdc_acm 4-2:1.0: ttyACM0: USB ACM device | 13:12 |
| m3dlg | i actually liked what i saw | 13:12 |
| th0r | aar: the device is mapped as ttyACM0 | 13:12 |
| m3dlg | just booting now, and i'll have to alter my settings manually | 13:12 |
| m3dlg | as root to fix the original problem, :) | 13:12 |
| matreya6 | Cantcme, in that case, why don't you just rollback to the previous OSS version? | 13:12 |
| aar | th0r, so this should be the path: /dev/ttyACM0 ? | 13:13 |
| th0r | aar: I think that will work...I am not familiar with mot4lin | 13:13 |
| aar | th0r, I'll try that, thanks | 13:13 |
| Cantcme | matreya6, hmm good point lol, is there an easy to way to do it or should i just install the older version from synaptic | 13:13 |
| matreya6 | Cantcme, synaptic would be the safest way to do this ;-) | 13:14 |
| aar | th0r, excellent -- it works! | 13:14 |
| Cantcme | thanks for all the help matreya6 and Severian | 13:14 |
| Severian | Cantme, you probably have to uninstall the new version, then reinstall the old version. | 13:14 |
| matreya6 | Cantcme, don't mention it, have nice sound carpet ;-) | 13:14 |
| === desti_T2 is now known as desti | ||

| Cantcme | Severian, matreya6, btw this is the reason that i updated OSS http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=7243609#post7243609 | 13:18 |
| Severian | Cantme, OK, so you wanted no sound. | 13:19 |
| Cantcme | na basically ALSA made counter strike source crash, and the old OSS drivers didnt provide any sound | 13:19 |
| matreya6 | Cantcme, ah, CounterStrike, well...it's alway risky to install programs, *but especially driver versions* not endorsed by the distro. | 13:20 |
| Cantcme | so i decided to update OSS, i can get sound in counter strike now with OSS but its all crackled and stuff, and nothing else has sound | 13:20 |
| Severian | Cantme, the thread does not show that the new OSS made the sound come back. But, you may know that from some other source. | 13:20 |
| Cantcme | i posted that thread :P | 13:20 |
| matreya6 | Cantcme, crackled eh? Did you try a killall Pulseaudio? | 13:20 |
| vertagano | Cantcme: Have you tried re-installed ALSA and then restarting? | 13:21 |
| Severian | Cantme, Well, good luck. | 13:21 |
| Cantcme | haven't tried kill pulseaudion | 13:21 |
| Cantcme | and vertagano, only about 5 times lol | 13:21 |

| guja | How to downgrade from 9.04 to 8.10? | 13:43 |
| bassliner | matreya6: this should be no reason at all. try to get used to something but forget damn windows. | 13:43 |
| setuid | That gets wireless up, but that's broken too, because wifi only works when I'm logged in as a user. That's retarded. If I log out, the connection goes away. Why? | 13:43 |
| userek | guja: why do you want to downgrade? i'm going to do the oposite actually ;) | 13:43 |
| bassliner | setuid: because network manager is retarded. | 13:43 |
| matreya6 | bassliner, I do like fluxbox, it's very techy and blazingly fast even on my old P3 lappy. :-D | 13:43 |
| setuid | Shouldn't this be a no-brainer? | 13:43 |
| bassliner | setuid: if you want to avoid that, make your changes to the network settings from the commandline and know your toys. | 13:44 |
| bassliner | it should. | 13:44 |
| setuid | bassliner, Right, so why does nm continue to put garbage IPs and routes into the config when it connects to my WAP? | 13:44 |
| guja | userek: xf86-video-intel has bugs with qt apps in 9.04. Worked fine in 8.10. With kde, eveything is qt related. That's why. | 13:44 |
| vertagano | Cantcme: STill no devices on aplay -l | 13:44 |
| bassliner | matreya6: i indeed love performant things. | 13:44 |
| maltonic | TVTIME FREEZING PROBLEM. Can anyone help? | 13:44 |
| Cantcme | yeh same error as before, no soundcards | 13:44 |
| bassliner | setuid: no idea | 13:44 |
| userek | i see, fortuneatly i've ati onboard card ;) | 13:44 |
| QueenInfamous | hmm | 13:44 |
| setuid | The "locale" problem has been in Ubuntu for at least 5 years. Has nobody really solved that yet? That's nuts! | 13:45 |
| vertagano | Cantcme: How about ` sudo modprobe snd-hda-intel `; it still give you the same error? | 13:45 |
| matreya6 | bassliner, about the last comment about "forget that damn Windows', that's a bit brusque when talking to a venerable 90-year old who has started using computers when he was 72(!) | 13:45 |
| bassliner | setuid: well networkmanager just uses dhcp, if you tive out garbage settings via dhcp it will use them. | 13:45 |
| QueenInfamous | Can someone offer me a good music/video player for ubuntu? :/ | 13:45 |
| Cantcme | vertagano, yep :( | 13:45 |
| QueenInfamous | since i'm totally new right now | 13:45 |
| bassliner | matreya6: i doubt you're 90 right :) | 13:45 |
| userek | bassliner: how to make it NOT use dhcp, because i'm kinda unable to! | 13:45 |
| setuid | bassliner, nm ignores anything I put in the applet. I've defined my NIC as static, with correct routes, dns, etc. and it puts shit in there anyway. Where it gets it, I have no idea. | 13:46 |
| bassliner | userek: you can define a static ip for a wlan profile i bet in network manager | 13:46 |
| guja | Anyone knows how to downgrade from 9.04 to 8.10? | 13:46 |
| bassliner | setuid: hmmm... | 13:46 |
| fornix_ | i stopped using network manager. Any one did the same? | 13:46 |
| tuzakey | QueenInfamous: I like xine and vlc apt://xine-ui and vlc apt://vlc | 13:46 |
| matreya6 | basliner, I am not 90 but my grandpa is...The only way to get him to abandon Windows is to provide him with a smooth transition. He is already using Firefox and Thunderbird, but he still uses Word. I have great respect for him that he has managed to learn it at his age and overall he is doing remarkably well. | 13:47 |
| Dealer | anyone can gimme a pointer or an url to how I can stream movies and music from my ubuntu on my xbox ? | 13:47 |
| setuid | When I edit the wifi connection in the applet, for example to set the "Enable for all users" option, the "Apply" button goes from green to one with two keys on it, and I can click it, but it does nothing. I can't save those prefs. | 13:47 |
| bassliner | fornix_: shitload of ppl have burned it | 13:47 |
| Cantcme | Dealer, tried tversity through wine? | 13:47 |
| bassliner | fornix_: because they're unsatisfied with the way it works | 13:47 |
| Dealer | Cantcme, no, only tryed google so far;) but thanks, I'll look in to it =) | 13:47 |
| setuid | The whole nm thing is a joke... it shouldn't be this hard. I shouldn't have to set my connection in there, then let it do its dance, and then UNDO most of that from the shell, manually, every time I log in. | 13:47 |
| fornix_ | oh. thank god i am not the only one. i was feeling guilty | 13:48 |
| Bman | Hi. I need to change my keyboard settings so I can use the at sign, and stuff like that onder the 1234.. numbers.. by using ctrl alt.. can someone help me? Dunno how to manage it. azerty keyboard btw | 13:48 |
| tuzakey | Dealer: http://ushare.geexbox.org/ | 13:48 |
| matreya6 | fornix_, here's another one with two NIC's that removed Network Manager. Autoconfiguration drove me crazy, because it created hindrances instead of a smooth "just works" config. | 13:48 |
| Dealer | tuzakey, thanks. | 13:49 |
| tuzakey | Dealer: I haven't been able to make ushare stream my music library correctly, I have some other java based DLNA app for that (can't remember the name of it off hand and its on a different computer) | 13:49 |
| eni | matreya6, X Server 1.6 support, Ubuntu 9.04 support. Dropped support for older GPUs (R300 to R500). source: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fglrx | 13:50 |
| matreya6 | Bman, you can configre dead keys at "layout options" from Preferences => Keyboard | 13:50 |
| eni | now i can say ubuntu does suck. | 13:50 |
| Dealer | tuzakey, mainly movies I wanna stream, music I got Spotify for, and got direct connection to amplefyer ;) | 13:50 |
| tuzakey | Dealer: ushare is packaged in ubuntu universe | 13:50 |
| setuid_ | goddamnit | 13:51 |
| setuid_ | Why, after 5+ years, can't Ubuntu figure out how to properly configure and maintain wireless settings?! | 13:51 |
| tuzakey | Dealer: ushare works great for video, just remember to pass the xbox command line option | 13:51 |
| Bman | matreya6, and what do i have to do there to make ctrl alt work fine with that at sign and the other? cause already looked there.. | 13:51 |
| matreya6 | eni, don't take it out on Ubuntu, just install a backport. But hey, if you don't like Ubuntu nobody will kill you over that, just choose a distro that suits your needs | 13:51 |
| setuid_ | This is ridiculous | 13:51 |
| setuid_ | I've spent over 4 days on this one broken aspect of the distro alone | 13:51 |
| QueenInfamous | guys | 13:51 |
| Sedna | - | 13:51 |
| Dealer | tuzakey, thanks ;) | 13:51 |
| jrib | setuid_: do you have a support question? If so please just ask it. Otherwise, feel free to contribute.... | 13:51 |
| eni | matreya6, i've used ubuntu for years now, i just dont like the 'wont support your card anymore' just like that. | 13:51 |
| QueenInfamous | Any idea how can I make my main icons down on the dekstop like at this screen right here http://img3.imageshack.us/img3/608/screenshothqv.png ? | 13:52 |
| setuid_ | jrib, My support questions are above... | 13:52 |
| jrib | setuid_: That's fine. Note the word "just" | 13:52 |
| setuid_ | jrib, wireless is broken, nm-applet is useless, settings are applied incorrectly/ignored, and it's tremendously unstable/fragile, once set. | 13:52 |
| pauwels_ | Hey ppl! | 13:52 |
| setuid_ | jrib, I'm all ears, but I've been over this a thousand times in the last 4 days. Wireless and Ubuntu do not get along, using the default tools. | 13:53 |
| matreya6 | eni, Sometimes a distro has to make compromises, managing effort and choosing priorities. Unfortunately you card lucked out. But that doesn't mean you can't install drivers manually. It's just a bigger hassle | 13:53 |
| jrib | setuid_: that's fine. But this is a support channel. So take the rants elsewhere please. You make it harder for everyone else to get help | 13:53 |
| pauwels_ | ive got a problem with my audio configuration.. i just get one channel.. (stereo only left :( ) , so how can i "reset " my audio config | 13:53 |
| pauwels_ | can someone help me with this ? :-) | 13:53 |
| eni | matreya6, :( can you give me a hint how to install that manually? | 13:54 |
| matreya6 | !patience | pauwels_ | 13:54 |
| ubottu | pauwels_: The people here are volunteers, your attitude should reflect that. Answers are not always available. See http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines | 13:54 |
| setuid_ | jrib, Ok, I'll phrase my problems in the form of a question: How do I correctly configure wireless networking in Ubuntu, so the settings are correctly applied and saved? | 13:54 |
| setuid_ | nm-applet is apparently not the tool to achieve this milestone | 13:54 |
| deany | nm wouldnt save the WPA password prooperly, and saved it as one long hex string all the time, so wouldnt connect...turned out it wanted a WPA2 password.. there aint any settings to choose one of the other, it aks for WPA or WPA2 passowrd.. upgraded my router that gave it wpa2 functions and the rest is history. | 13:54 |
| jrib | setuid_: you should probably explain what you did, what happened, and what you expected to happen | 13:54 |
| walrus_ | Hey! How can I check what catalyst version is currently installed by default on a fresh 9.04 install? | 13:54 |
| matreya6 | eni, have you checked out backports firsts? That would be your safest bet. | 13:54 |
| matreya6 | brb, grabbing a bite | 13:55 |
| jrib | walrus_: packages.ubuntu.com, or use apt-cache | 13:55 |
| setuid_ | jrib, Installed Jaunty. Logged in. WAPs around me were seen. I selected mine and put in my psk, which came from my _working_ wpa_supplicant.conf file. It connects to my WAP. When it does so, it breaks the default route and adds garbage IPs and routes to /etc/resolv.conf and the routing table. | 13:55 |
| walrus_ | jrib: could you be mroe specific, I'm new to linux :) | 13:55 |
| jrib | walrus_: apt-cache policy PACKAGE will tell you the version of a package | 13:56 |
| setuid_ | jrib, The only way to get wireless working, is let nm-applet misconfigure wireless, then "fix" it manually at the shell, by editing /etc/resolv.conf manually and providing correct routes by "route del default" and "route add default gw ..." | 13:56 |
| jrib | setuid_: ok, but ask the channel | 13:56 |
| blixt | greets! i couldn't save an edit /etc/pulse/daemon.conf so i went sudo gedit in a terminal and saved the edit.. | 13:56 |
| jrib | setuid_: can't you just not use nm at all though? | 13:56 |
| blixt | however this seams to have been a bad idea | 13:56 |
| setuid_ | jrib, What are my other choices? Put the manual wpa_supplicant CLI options and args in /etc/init.d/bootmisc.sh? That'll blow up if I upgrade anything that touches that file. | 13:57 |
| walrus_ | jrib: ok I see thanks, now I gotta figure out what is the catalyt package name XD | 13:57 |
| tgpraveen | hiya guys whats happening? | 13:57 |
| blixt | now i get a loud beed on shutdown | 13:57 |
| chazco | Hi.. anyone know how to use sed to split a resolution? e.g. to turn 1024x768 into var1=1024, var2=768 | 13:57 |
| setuid_ | chazco, perl | 13:57 |
| tgpraveen | anyone here can tell me what extra features banshee has rather than rhythmbox? | 13:57 |
| blixt | so i suspect by doing the edit that way i changed owner or rights or something... | 13:57 |
| tgpraveen | i hear it might replace rhythmbox in next version so i ask new features? | 13:58 |
| fornix_ | chazco: you could do that with the cut command and using x as the separator | 13:58 |
| blixt | ..mm not beed.. i mean beep | 13:58 |
| === dLeonX is now known as help | ||
| chazco | fornix - Okay, will look into it. Thanks :) | 13:58 |
| blixt | what should the file settings be for daemon configs? | 13:58 |
| === help is now known as MicroBeast | ||
| m3dlg | matreya6: i'm back, and the problem hasn't gone | 13:58 |
| blixt | and how do i change it easily? | 13:58 |
| === MicroBeast is now known as dLeonX | ||
| pauwels_ | i think my problem is in the pulse audio | 13:59 |
| pauwels_ | but how can i config it?: | 13:59 |
| macsim | hi, I have a strange issue with jaunty, when I plug usb harddrive on the computer, disk is reconize but not mounted, if I mount in a terminal its work well, I restart hal and nothing change, you know how to fix this ? | 13:59 |
| === fornix_ is now known as fornix | ||
| setuid_ | Anyone know how I can get GNOME to "keep" my font settings? I log in and they're HUGE, and only get "fixed" when I go to System -> Preferences -> Appearance and *CHANGE NOTHING*. Just entering the dialog "tricks" GNOME into applying them. | 13:59 |
| walrus_ | jrib: ok your method is fine bt it teels me the amdcccle package vesrion, but what I want to know is the Catalyst version( like 9.1 9.2 ect..) wich I can't find in the catalyst manager :( | 14:00 |
| jrib | setuid_: well, nm has always worked for me so I don't know your other options. I assume before nm, there was a better way than what you said though. See if the wiki has anything. | 14:00 |
| jrib | !wifi > setuid_ | 14:00 |
| ubottu | setuid_, please see my private message | 14:00 |
| jrib | walrus_: usually the two are related. Does the package description say the version? | 14:00 |
| setuid_ | jrib, Out of the box (this Jaunty install is less than a few hours old), it doesn't work. | 14:00 |
| jrib | setuid_: I think we've established that, I believe you | 14:00 |
| setuid_ | jrib, so if yours works, you did something beyond the default config, to get it working | 14:00 |
| jrib | setuid_: nope | 14:01 |
| walrus_ | jrib: This package provides the Catalyst Control Center, Linux Edition <= doesn't say much :( | 14:01 |
| jrib | setuid_: i just selected my network from the drop down menu and entered my password | 14:01 |
| setuid_ | fonts are broken as well. I can see the font faces in xlsfonts, but when I try to pass any of those to xterm -fn <font name>, it claims it can't load it. | 14:02 |
| nmvictor | where can i get a nice network monitor for the terminal,ive tried almost all suggestions i got so far nd im not pleased.any better ideas? | 14:02 |
| walrus_ | jrib: and the xorg-drivers-fglrs simply say: This package provides 2D display drivers | 14:02 |
| walrus_ | and hardware accelerated OpenGL. | 14:02 |
| setuid_ | jrib, And how did it set up the routes? On this end, it makes up some random IP routes and applies those | 14:02 |
| yoolao | am i the only one to have troubles with kde network manager for the wifi in 9.04? | 14:02 |
| setuid_ | jrib, routes which I do not have on my network, it gets them from "somewhere", and sets those as the default, which of course breaks networking | 14:02 |
| setuid_ | yoolao, No, networking is very broken in 9.04 | 14:02 |
| jrib | setuid_: I didn't check (not on the laptop now) | 14:02 |
| chaosphere | Hi. I tried to resize my root partition. After rebooting, 'df -h' shows no difference. gparted lists the partition as larger but there's no more space available. fsck.ext3 reports one large file. but i can't find one using 'find /media/sda2/ -size +2G -ls'. debugfs shows 'Size: 4299210752' when running 'stat <7>' (the resize inode). Does anyone have an idea how to fix this? http://pastebin.com/m19236235 | 14:03 |
| jrib | walrus_: should be 8.543 http://packages.ubuntu.com/intrepid/fglrx-amdcccle | 14:03 |
| yoolao | is there a replacement for the (broken (?)) NetworkManager? | 14:03 |
| setuid_ | yoolao, yes, run wpa_supplicant manually from the shell | 14:03 |
| setuid_ | yoolao, networkmanager is just a front-end for that | 14:04 |
| walrus_ | jrib: oh im on 9.04 but im gonna check the details for 9.04 thanks | 14:04 |
| yoolao | hum.... i had to read about so... | 14:04 |
| m3dlg | how do i make my computer reset to default graphic setting with no ati driver so i can re-install the ati catalist from scratch - i'm on a live disk now because I can't boot to desktop without a freeze | 14:04 |
| chazco | fornix - Got it working, thanks :) | 14:04 |
| setuid_ | fonts are broken, networking is broken, video driver is broken. Well, at least the disk works and the kernel unpacks and gives me a shell. | 14:05 |
| walrus_ | jrib: actually I don't think the 8.543 or 8.600 for jaunty as anything to do with the Ati catalyst version :( | 14:05 |
| bj0ng0 | hmm, when using netboot install (pxe booting it) is there a way to set desktop or server after APPEND, like install=server? :| | 14:06 |
| m3dlg | matreya6: u still on? | 14:07 |
| jrib | walrus_: then you probably want to run the control center from the command line and try switches like --version, -v, -V, etc. | 14:07 |
| matreya6 | back... | 14:07 |
| m3dlg | cool | 14:07 |
| m3dlg | i've found my back up conf file is blankso it doesn't work | 14:08 |
| QueenInfamous | How can I install some sound drivers? | 14:08 |
| thompa | anyone know whats up with i945? In Hardy I had better graphics. Flash and compiz are slow and my fan runs high on vaio | 14:09 |
| m3dlg | matreya6: is there someway to force the pc to default graphic and then repair from desktop | 14:09 |
| matreya6 | m3ldg, yes there is it is a kernel option, vga-something... just a moment | 14:09 |
| m3dlg | matreya6: many thanks, i'm getting stressed big time now | 14:10 |
| walrus_ | jrib: I'm sorry but actually the amdcccle (wich is catalyst manager) -version says 2.6 wich can't be the catalyst driver version :( | 14:10 |
| walrus_ | jrib: sorry that ati catalyst thing is a real pain in the ass anyway | 14:10 |
| jrib | walrus_: why do you believe the package version is different than the version of the driver? | 14:11 |
| walrus_ | jrib: but I wanted to know if 9.04 was installing the 9.4 last catalyst version by default | 14:11 |
| matreya6 | m3dlg, remember the motto of the Hitchikers Guide?....Don't Panic! | 14:11 |
| walrus_ | jrib: because catalyst version are like 8.11, 8.12, 9.1, 9.2, 9.3 and latest is 9.4 | 14:11 |
| jrib | walrus_: if you're using the driver /var/log/Xorg.0.log will probably give you some version info as well | 14:11 |
| m3dlg | matreya6: rofl | 14:11 |
| realsifo | hello. how to set my haier d1200p cdma in ubuntu 9.04? | 14:11 |
| walrus_ | jrib: no way 2.6 is the catalyst version :) | 14:11 |
| jrib | walrus_: the package version is not 2.6 | 14:12 |
| walrus_ | jrib: amdcccle -versions retuends 2.6 | 14:12 |
| jrib | walrus_: should be 8.543 http://packages.ubuntu.com/intrepid/fglrx-amdcccle | 14:12 |
| walrus_ | jrib: amdcccle -version returned 2.6 | 14:12 |
| walrus_ | jrib: but even 8.543 seems really old, since it would be an 1 year old driver | 14:13 |
| walrus_ | jrib: im gonna check that file you told me | 14:13 |
| jrib | walrus_: if you go to download catalyst directly, it offers versions like 8.456 or whatever. Remember, I linked you to intrepid, in jaunty it seems to be 8.600 | 14:13 |
| matreya6 | m3dlg, try the following kernel option: vga=791 | 14:13 |
| m3dlg | matreya6: will do, just rebooting (AGAIN!) | 14:14 |
| walrus_ | jrib: yes but even 8.600 would be 2008.06 drivers... seems weird for jaunty to be using 1 year old drivers by default no? | 14:14 |
| jrib | walrus_: no idea | 14:14 |
| Bman | matreya6, ? | 14:14 |
| jrib | walrus_: is that package the one that provides the driver? | 14:15 |
| matreya6 | Bman, yes? | 14:15 |
| realsifo | hep me | 14:15 |
| Bman | what do i have to do at these keyboard preferences matreya6 ? | 14:15 |
| walrus_ | jrib: im not sure, I used the Hardware proprietary drivers installation from ubuntu menu | 14:15 |
| walrus_ | jrib: and i wanted to know what version it installed | 14:15 |
| vertagano | walrus_: fglrxinfo ? | 14:16 |
| xcerca | whats the command to see of the partitions and what they are mounted as and what their details are ? | 14:16 |
| m3dlg | matreya6: now for the daft question | 14:16 |
| ikonia | xcerca: mount | 14:16 |
| walrus_ | vertagano: fgrlxinfo only says some opengl version that's all :( | 14:16 |
| m3dlg | matreya6: where do i put a kernal option like that, not console like i did (like noob i am) | 14:16 |
| vertagano | What's in the parens at the end of the OpenGL version? | 14:17 |
| matreya6 | Bman, I have only used those options with a US-Qwerty Keyboard, try using Alternative French Keyboard layout and see if that fits your real layout | 14:17 |
| matreya6 | m3dlg, in grub you have a few seconds before it loads the kernel, you can select the row that selects your kernel and edit the line with "e" to add stuff to it, like vga-791 | 14:18 |
| matreya6 | m3dlg, you can also try the safe graphics mode, but as you will see that does not always work... | 14:19 |
| walrus_ | vertagano: OpenGL version string: 2.1.8575 | 14:19 |
| Bman | matreya6, no, doesn't work. you know a place where it's more focussed on stuff liek this? | 14:20 |
| vertagano | walrus_: Huh. When I used to have an ATI card, it would list my Catalyst version in parens after the OpenGL version string. | 14:20 |
| m3dlg | minus or equals? u used both | 14:20 |
| walrus_ | vertagano: seems it doesn't anymore :( | 14:21 |
| matreya6 | Bman, try this thread for starters: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=4909618 | 14:21 |

| Blizzerand | Which is the best desktop environment for Ubuntu ?? | 14:21 |
| walrus_ | vertagano: i tried to searach on the jaunty wiki, it's weird they do'nt list the default catalyst version installed | 14:22 |
| nuninoo | pls help me troubleshoot why i cannot ping an XP machine in LAN. I can ping if I boot into XP too | 14:22 |
| walrus_ | vertagano: oh!!!! thats explains it all !!! | 14:22 |
| matreya6 | Blizzerand, that's purely personal, just look at some screenshots, browse some features and see waht appeals to you. Then just give a LiveCD a spin to see if you really like it :-) | 14:23 |
| walrus_ | vertagano: thx a lot :) now i wonder if i should install the real 9.4 or keep these default | 14:23 |
| Blizzerand | hmm | 14:23 |
| matreya6 | Bman, Here's another: http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-106209.html | 14:23 |
| Bman | thx alot matreya6 :) | 14:24 |
| vertagano | walrus_: I think I'd keep the default for now... But then, I hate troubleshooting video problems. | 14:24 |
| walrus_ | jrib: just to let you know you were right about 8.600 :) as vertagano found out it is a non official catalyst that is shipped with 9.04 :p | 14:24 |
| matreya6 | Bman, don't mention it. I have a P3 lappy with a weird Belgian Toshiba layout. It was such a hassle to get that layout working that I just switched to US-international and typed the right keys from memory. | 14:25 |
| walrus_ | vertagano: im asking myself because i can hardly play any video while compiz is atcivated, meaning while the fglrx driver is in use :( :( :( | 14:25 |
| m3dlg | matreya6: that has not worked, i'll have to out soon, i'm stressed and i figure i'll have to do a re-install, but i can't afford to loose the 1tbish of stuff i have on the rest of teh drive | 14:25 |

| phoe6 | ikonia: I have unziped the package and i know that it wont affect my system. I am trying to do it myself ( to learn) and the reason I installed package was to setup the printer. | 14:32 |
| m3dlg | well it's nearly fixed, it's different - catch you later if ur still about. man ythanks | 14:32 |

| DrHalan | erUSUL: there should be | 14:35 |
| phoe6 | ikonia: Sorry to bother you;please dont let me in rounds. If you know the howto, please share; there should be reason as why I am trying so hard.. :) you get it? | 14:35 |
| Dillizar | ok ikonia this works too | 14:35 |
| Dr_Willis | axel_: there may be a forum thread on that topic. switching btween the 2 desktops - fails to reset some settings. Like the 'maximus' app that may be your issue also. | 14:36 |
| ikonia | phoe6: your system administrator is the best way - if there is a reason you won't speak to your system administrator can't help you please tell me | 14:36 |
| ubuntu | slm | 14:36 |

| phoe6 | Well, my system adminster can help; but it would cost me 2 days of waiting. :) | 14:37 |
| phoe6 | which I am not in position to do.. I am trying to install a ssl headers and this thing is coming in between | 14:37 |
| shyam | what would be the best way to mount the folders on my laptop to my desktop? i want to use them just like an externel partition being mounted.. | 14:37 |
| phoe6 | I am trying out steps from google.. as I am chatting in this channel. | 14:37 |
| shyam | nfs? | 14:37 |
| erUSUL | shyam: yes | 14:38 |
| ikonia | phoe6: ssl headers have nothing to do with this package | 14:38 |
| phoe6 | I will install it using apt-get or Synaptics package manager; the latter wont work if I have this package in a bad shape. | 14:39 |
| ikonia | phoe6: ok - so then it DOES have implications to other packages - speak to your system administrator | 14:39 |
| phoe6 | okay. | 14:40 |
| shyam | erUSUL: thanks.. | 14:40 |
| phoe6 | as I said, it would take my 2days and I shall look out for help at other avenues ( or someone else too). thanks. | 14:40 |
| QueenInfamous | How can I make my VLC player to be the main player of both video/audio files? | 14:40 |
| Sebboh | I disagree about NFS, unless you really know how it works and now how to use very recent features.. An unavailable NFS export results in serious breakage.. I've heard about some new feature that solves that problem, but I don't know how to use it. | 14:40 |
| Akuma | Hello, I have an issue with upgrading, I'm wondering if you guys can help me find the source of the problem or solution. | 14:40 |
| shyam | Sebboh: what you prefer over nfs? | 14:41 |
| ikonia | phoe6: you will potentially do serious damage to your system playing with a custom pacakge that has dependencies on other pacakges | 14:41 |
| Akuma | I get the following message when the upgrade window pops for upgrading | 14:41 |
| Akuma | "E:Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages." | 14:41 |

| shesek | I'm using ubuntu (server) installtion's shell, I don't have fdisk, is there any way of finding out what partition I have ? | 14:42 |
| phoe6 | ikonia: I am not worried about that. :) I am kind of surprised at your send me in so many rounds. ikonia; I am a programmer, who can try out stuffs and experiement too. This package was a experiement which has failed; and I am trying to undo it.. | 14:42 |
| ikonia | phoe6: the package should not just be blindly removed if it has dependencies on other packages, hence why you should talk to your systems administrator | 14:43 |
| shyam | shesek: mount -l or df ? sorry i didn't get what shell that is.. | 14:43 |
| phoe6 | Okay, it depends upon Depends: cupsys-client, openprinting-ppds | 14:44 |
| phoe6 | as I am said, I am not worried if my whole system crashes too; but that wont happen is my gut feel. | 14:44 |
| aar | QueenInfamous, you simply associate the file extensions with the VLC bin file. Konqueror will let you do that, under options. | 14:44 |

| quiksilver | is there a way to install .iso's on linux without burning to cd? | 14:45 |
| comicinker | does the live-dvd of ubuntu studio already uses the real-time kernel? | 14:45 |
| quiksilver | i have a .iso installer disc | 14:45 |
| shyam | Sebboh: you using samba? | 14:45 |
| daan | Can anyone tell me, does the build-essentials package do anything at all for compiling software like MySQL from source? Or is it only meant for building actual .deb packages? I'm a bit confused by the description of the package. | 14:45 |
| quiksilver | and a .iso for the application | 14:45 |
| daglees | Hi, I have ubuntu installed inside Windows and I read Hibernation is not available | 14:46 |
| arvind_khadri | daan, its useful when you compile packages | 14:46 |
| daglees | so there's no workaround to enable it after it's been installed? | 14:46 |
| blixt | how come i get a beep on shutdown after editing /etc/pulse/daemon.conf ? | 14:46 |
| PhotoJim | quiksilver: there are ways of making a bootable flash drive and booting off that, and some very advanced ways of booting if you have an existing Linux system to start the process with. but the CD is by far the easiest . if worried about "wasting" a CD, use CD-RWs which are reusable. | 14:46 |
| arvind_khadri | blixt, blacklist pcspkr | 14:46 |
| shyam | quiksilver: if its an ubuntu package cd, what you can do is to mount that iso file using mount command which will make it run like a "virtual cd" and do "add cdrom" to the synaptic.. | 14:46 |
| phoe6 | and more-over ikonia; I am on a higher version of ubuntu than my corporate; so I am my own system-adminstrator in this case... | 14:46 |
| ^biNuN_giRL^ | jjll | 14:47 |
| arvind_khadri | quiksilver, yes | 14:47 |
| blixt | aha! what does that mean? | 14:47 |
| daan | arvind_khadri: i see, thanks. how can i find what the package actually installs for me? the packages.ubuntu.com page only shows the dependencies and the description | 14:47 |
| dLeonX | <daglees> Ubuntu won't do full work if you install it under windows. It's not pure Ubuntu environment. | 14:47 |
| blixt | even if i edit it back the beep is still there.. | 14:47 |
| quiksilver | thanks alot | 14:47 |
| quiksilver | shyam: it | 14:47 |
| quiksilver | shyam: its not the ubuntu cd | 14:48 |
| daglees | dLeonX, what are the main differences? | 14:48 |
| quiksilver | PhotoJim: thanks | 14:48 |
| PhotoJim | quiksilver: you're welcome. | 14:48 |
| quiksilver | arvind_khadri: which method do you reccomend | 14:48 |
| Almindor | hello | 14:48 |
| Almindor | does anyone know a good graph editor? | 14:48 |
| arvind_khadri | quiksilver, the loopback stuff | 14:48 |
| arvind_khadri | daan, just a min | 14:48 |
| Almindor | something for creating graph images (preferably with possibilities for black&white print, not just colors) | 14:49 |
| shyam | quiksilver: hmm.. i assumed that you have a running gnu distribution and what you want is to add more software. is it like that? then be careful about version of the cd.. mixing different distros and even different versions of same distro can cause harm | 14:49 |
| Rapachooie | hi all... I am trying to move everything from a bunch of sub directories, into the original folder directory | 14:49 |

| daan | arvind_khadri: ofcourse, thanks | 14:49 |
| vertagano | Rapachooie: You can use a for loop in bash. | 14:49 |
| dLeonX | <daglees> If you intall it under Windows, Ubuntu is just like another VirtualMachince. If you wan the full power, you need to setup it in real Linux env. | 14:49 |
| arvind_khadri | Rapachooie, mv | 14:49 |
| Rapachooie | vertagano: could you give me an example? | 14:50 |
| tesseracter | hi, every time i go to open a file (the file dialog box?) the application freezes for about 30-60 seconds before continuing an normal. this is extremely frustrating. help? | 14:50 |
| daglees | dLeonX, the problem is that I can't partition my harddisk | 14:50 |
| daglees | although I got like 50Gb free | 14:50 |
| dLeonX | <daglees> ??? why | 14:51 |
| daglees | otherwise I'd have installed it independently | 14:51 |
| daglees | well whenever I try to shrink it it will only let me use about 500mb | 14:51 |
| daglees | I tried defragging and all | 14:51 |
| vertagano | Rapachooie: for i in `ls -R`; do echo "$i"; done | 14:51 |
| vertagano | Rapachooie: That will list every file in every subdirectory from where it's run. | 14:51 |
| Rapachooie | arvind_khadri: yes I would like to use mv, but I do not know how to tell it to move the contents of every subdirectory into the original | 14:52 |
| Rapachooie | vertagano: ok cool... and then I can replace ls with mv | 14:52 |
| blixt | arvind: would that be a command to silence the pc-speaker? do you have any idea why i now have the beep? | 14:52 |
| vertagano | Rapachooie: for i in `ls -R`; do mv "$i" /newfolder; done | 14:52 |

| arvind_khadri | Rapachooie, you need to blacklist the module named pcspkr | 14:53 |
| dLeonX | <daglees> Are you sure you have more than that? What exactly you've done? except defrag-ing? | 14:53 |
| quiksilver | does ubuntu have any great open source language learning programs? | 14:53 |

| _Brun0_ | Why my keybind to nautiluss doesn't work? I want to open nautilus with alt+n or alt+p. How? | 15:07 |
| matreya6 | shesek, usually, just "mount" will give you a list (no need to add the -l) | 15:07 |
| NarbeH | _Brun0_: Set it in Keyboard ShortCuts | 15:07 |
| NarbeH | I can't Access to my WebServer from another PC in my LAN. WHY ? | 15:07 |
| VCoolio | FloridaGuy: https://help.launchpad.net/Packaging/PPA#keys?action=show&redirect=PPAKeys AWN is the example it works with | 15:07 |
| user__ | NarbeH: what have you tried so far? | 15:07 |
| gilster | anyone here working with an external firewire drive of any sort? | 15:07 |
| _Brun0_ | NarbeH, i set. both alt+p, then after alt+n to run command nautilus. But it doesn't work. | 15:08 |
| matreya6 | Narbeh, what does a telnet on you webserver port give you? | 15:08 |
| PhotoJim | gilster: sure. | 15:08 |
| NarbeH | user__: i just install lamp server. before i could see my webserver from another pc . but now i can't why? | 15:09 |
| NarbeH | matreya6: i don't know | 15:09 |
| gilster | photojim: cheers. how did you mount your drive. did it automount? | 15:09 |
| PhotoJim | gilster: I think so. I haven't attached it for a few days. I use it to back up my server. yours is not automounting? | 15:10 |
| user__ | NarbeH: what does 'telnet my.server.ip.x 80' give you? | 15:10 |
| matreya6 | Narbeh, let's say you have your webserver hosted on 192.168.1.3 and on that address you have your webserver listening at port 80. In that case, what does the command "telnet 192.168.1.3 80" give you? | 15:10 |
| gilster | photojim: nope. doesnt pick up anything | 15:11 |
| TheMaestro | guys has anyone customized gedit here? | 15:11 |

| gilster | photojim: the card works and lspci reads it correctly but when i plug an external Maxtor firewire drive i get nothing | 15:11 |
| vertagano | Rapachooie: This seems to speak directly to your purpose. | 15:12 |
| PhotoJim | gilster: open up a terminal. if you just plugged it in (and if you didn't, you may want to unplug it, wait 10 seconds, and plug it in again), you should see messages about it in your dmesg. you can type "sudo tail /var/log/dmesg" to see the last few lines, or just "dmesg" if you don't mind it scrolling through everything first. | 15:12 |
| PhotoJim | gilster: is the drive partitioned and formatted? | 15:12 |
| NarbeH | matreya6: user__: Unable... Network Is Unreachable ... | 15:12 |
| Rapachooie | thanks vertagano | 15:12 |
| deadman | hi i cant view flash anymore... it just appears empty white... | 15:13 |
| deadman | can anyone help me | 15:13 |
| NarbeH | deadman: install flashplayer-nonfree | 15:13 |
| gilster | photojim: yes formatted NTFS, let me try dmesg. i think i have done that | 15:13 |
| deadman | NarbeH, i was able to view flash until today | 15:13 |
| matreya6 | Narbeh, in that case, your problem lies elsewhere. First of all you need your PC to be able to connect to your webserver at basic ping level. Maybe there is something wrong with routing on your network? | 15:14 |
| deadman | i have a 64bit system | 15:14 |
| NarbeH | deadman: re install it | 15:14 |
| ertu_ | Does anyone know how to auto-start a certain app at a certain workspace in gnome? | 15:14 |
| deadman | ok | 15:14 |
| vertagano | Rapachooie: Kitty Cat's solution looks promising. | 15:14 |
| ertu_ | deadman, 64bit opera + flash problem? | 15:14 |
| NarbeH | matreya6: i can ping 192.168.1.3 | 15:14 |
| mario | #Punch | 15:14 |
| NarbeH | matreya6: i don't know really :-s | 15:14 |
| matreya6 | deadman, I used an ugly workaround: I installed the Windows version of Firefox and Flash Player on top of that. | 15:14 |
| deadman | matreya6, how do you install windows version of firefox | 15:15 |
| matreya6 | Narbeh, yes but is your webserver at the same IP? (I mean 192.168.1.3 ?) | 15:15 |
| deadman | wine? | 15:15 |
| NarbeH | matreya6: no. it's 192.168.1.2 | 15:15 |

| slitaz | sacarlson, any way to restore synaptic ? | 15:21 |
| matreya6 | SoDoMa, What I meant to say is this, there's a #bash channel that you can join to ask questions about shellscripting in that shell | 15:22 |

| fornix | When I pause amarok and play a movie in mplayer, the movie plays in slow motion. This becomes normal once I quit Amarok. Ny ideas why this is happening? | 16:27 |
| gartral | fornix: its due to the MASSIVE amount of resources amarok takes up.. | 16:27 |
| fornix | gartral: does it take resources when it is paused?? | 16:28 |
| fermulator | fornix: not really an answer, ... but vlc works fine. ;/ amarok shouldn't use any resources (well, a minor amount perhaps) while it's paused | 16:28 |
| fornix | i doubt | 16:28 |
| gartral | fornix: it takes up resources when its open and stopped | 16:28 |

| gartral | fornix fermulator amarok isn't meant to be run in gnome, and its the KDE libs that take up the resources, seeing as vlc uses QT as well, it puts extra strain on the system | 16:30 |
| fornix | gartral: the same thing happens when i log in kde too | 16:30 |
| fermulator | gartral: but we all know amarok is the best music player/manager out there, there's no "gnome" equivilant | 16:30 |

| fornix | mplayer taking 2.3% CPU | 16:32 |
| gartral | fornix: ok, top is *usable* for CPU, but don't expect "real" ram indications | 16:32 |

| dan2k | gartral my card has both dvi and vga out | 16:59 |
| dan2k | gartral as does my monitor | 16:59 |
| penguins2387 | tones: yeah it can be because .xsessions isn't configured right | 16:59 |
| f190 | but AaronMT , it appears to be a problem with the bios power management, leading to improper power supply to a graphics card or something | 16:59 |
| gartral | dan2k: easy fix.. buy a DVI cable | 16:59 |
| sacarlson | dan2k: ya use the dvi and it will work not the vga one | 16:59 |

| TheJointChief | Hello everyone, I have a question, non-urgent. I am a linux newb and was thinking of upgrading from 8.10 to 9.04. Anything I should be worried about, or do before upgrading? I have backed up all the files I "think' I need. | 17:39 |
| gartral | TheJointChief: do you have a media player, like a sansa or an ipod? | 17:40 |
| TheJointChief | I have an ipod, yes | 17:40 |
| TheJointChief | But I've never used it with linux | 17:40 |
| deany | im tryin to use rsync to backup my mp3s to a usb stick, its formatted as ext2. i use "rsync -rv --delete /media/mp3 /media/usbstick" which copied them all to it initially, but further use of that command and it goes really slow thru each file, as though its copying them again, or scanning, i dunno, its just as slow as copying (its a slow usb stick anyway). I thought it would just wizz thru it with whats changed (5 files have changed) | 17:40 |
| * tones is back (gone 00:02:06) | 17:41 | |

| gartral | TheJointChief: the jump is worth it, but be prepared to replace a config file, or else your machine wont mount the ipod.. if you dont care/dont use Rockbox.. it wont matter | 17:41 |
| helper | chuck_, is there any convertor for .wmv to .mov ? .mov work | 17:42 |
| TheJointChief | gartral: Ok, thanks I appreciate it. Just had a few issues going from 8.04 to 8.10 (no sound) and didnt want a repeat hehe | 17:42 |

| TheJointChief | Where did they hide it? | 17:44 |
| gartral | TheJointChief: you now have to click the sound applet, and that gives a box with access to the mixer, double clicking the applet itself mutes all | 17:45 |
| TheJointChief | ahh, well I guess thats not so bad, on the whole :) | 17:45 |

| mrubcich | mzz: i dont know how to use git at all i was hoping someone might be able to explane it to me | 18:06 |
| user1949 | arvind_khadri: from the ATI website | 18:06 |
| c0ntract0r | ODDity yes it is there | 18:06 |
| benni | tones: works out quite well so far :) | 18:06 |
| mrubcich | mzz: yeah i do NOT wanna compile it by hand | 18:06 |
| WIGGMPk | chuck_: tried, but I still get the errors on lines 12-14 of this http://paste.ubuntu.com/168904/ | 18:06 |
| linux_hates_me | oh u was talking to them | 18:06 |
| user1949 | right now both monitors are cloned, I was to have my desktop extended accross both | 18:06 |
| arvind_khadri | user1949, then i guess we cant help, that option might not have been built yet from them, the documentation assumes you are using the drivers from the repo | 18:07 |
| mzz | WIGGMPk: and attempting to reinstall libclass-accessor-perl fails too? | 18:07 |
| toneman77 | gnome-settings-daemon changes the behaviour of Super_L here. with g-s-d: http://pastebin.ca/1418368 , without g-s-d: http://pastebin.ca/1418369 | 18:07 |
| WIGGMPk | mzz: gives the same results.. | 18:07 |
| user1949 | arvind_khadri: drivers from the repo don't work. They make my screen flicker | 18:07 |
| tones | benni: good to know | 18:07 |
| mrubcich | mzz: how do i work with a deb site then? add it to my software source or just throw it in terminal? | 18:07 |
| mzz | WIGGMPk: this sounds like the database of installed packages got corrupted somehow. I don't know how to fix that... | 18:07 |
| linux_hates_me | you suggested osx and something else, what was the 2nd one? | 18:07 |
| mzz | mrubcich: find a repository, tell the package manager about it, upgrade mesa | 18:08 |
| ODDity | c0ntract0r: ok, well maybe you need the new one? get it from http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/ download the tar.gz and replace the existing libflashplayer.so with the new one from that zip | 18:08 |
| tones | linux_hates_me: bsd | 18:08 |
| linux_hates_me | never heard of it | 18:08 |
| arvind_khadri | user1949, oh, i dont know much, am sorry | 18:08 |
| Kungen354646 | im not getting any sound when i use alsa | 18:08 |
| linux_hates_me | what is it | 18:08 |
| linux_hates_me | ? | 18:08 |
| WIGGMPk | mzz: yah for me... Jaunty = speed.. but thats it... at least for me.. ext4 on my machine was a disaster. | 18:08 |
| c0ntract0r | ODDity ok will try that now. Thank You | 18:08 |
| chuck_ | WIGGMPk try using aptitude to reinstall dpkg apt-get is the front end for dpkg and if its broke so is apt-get | 18:08 |
| mzz | mrubcich: but I wouldn't do that unless I was reasonably certain it was actually going to help | 18:08 |
| tones | linux_hates_me: similar to linux, yet different | 18:08 |
| tones | linux_hates_me: google it | 18:08 |
| linux_hates_me | tones, how so? | 18:08 |
| user1949 | arvind_khadri: eh, thanks anyway | 18:08 |
| mrubcich | mzz: how do i go about finding a repository? i really am happy to have someone helping me with this, i think i need to upgrade | 18:08 |
| linux_hates_me | heh, no broswer | 18:08 |
| c0ntract0r | ODDity i got the one that said for UBUNTU 8.04+ last time, u think that's my problem? | 18:09 |
| arvind_khadri | linux_hates_me, its berkely software distribution, there version of linux | 18:09 |
| tones | linux_hates_me: ah... | 18:09 |
| jon13doe | does anyone know a good tutorial for dual booting jaunty and windows 7? | 18:09 |
| linux_hates_me | no gui = no browser | 18:09 |
| arvind_khadri | linux_hates_me, their* | 18:09 |
| mzz | mrubcich: *why* do you think so? Have you found others with the same problem who fixed it by upgrading? Did you find your problem mentioned in the release notes of a newer version of mesa? | 18:09 |
| aguadarrama | linux_hates_me, LOL | 18:09 |
| ODDity | c0ntract0r: I dont know.. getting the latest version from adobe wouldn't hurt, it's pretty easy to put in the right place | 18:09 |

| JohnnyBGoode | hello can someone please help me with gaining permission to paste a .so into a folder? | 18:15 |
| linux_hates_me | unplug monitor, plug it into the primary port :) | 18:15 |
| epicreviews | It's a laptop | 18:15 |
| epicreviews | I like using an external display also | 18:16 |
| chuck__ | c0ntract0r, did you ever get sound to work | 18:16 |
| martin_henry | epicreviews: you want laptop primary & external secondary? | 18:16 |
| epicreviews | YES I do | 18:16 |
| linux_hates_me | epic, if this was windows, its easy, sorry dont know in ubuntu but i would figure its something to do with display settings | 18:16 |
| epicreviews | @ martin_henry | 18:16 |
| c0ntract0r | chuck_ yes i did , i tried to thank you last night but you were gone so, thanks :) | 18:16 |
| linux_hates_me | chuck, he is wanting opposite | 18:16 |
| epicreviews | I know how to do it in windows as well but not in ubuntu | 18:16 |
| linux_hates_me | oh i thought u wanted desktop primary | 18:16 |
| linux_hates_me | heh | 18:17 |
| linux_hates_me | sorry | 18:17 |
| chuck__ | c0ntract0r, glad too here it | 18:17 |
| linux_hates_me | take mirror off and extend desktop | 18:17 |
| toneman77 | well on my dell i just plugged in a monitor and opened the display settings | 18:17 |
| epicreviews | the desktop is extended | 18:17 |
| JohnnyBGoode | Does anyone know why I only have "read only" access to a folder? I need "Read and Write" | 18:17 |

| epicreviews | but the external monitor is primary | 18:17 |
| martin_henry | epicreviews: so what is the problem? | 18:17 |
| toneman77 | JohnnyBGoode, depend on the folder. which one is it? | 18:17 |
| firevai | i had my landlord put my comp in his routers dmz.. now i am still having problems with ports.... can it be something in ubuntu not letting me connect to certain ports? | 18:17 |
| c0ntract0r | yes me too, i eventually removed the pci card , reenabled the onboard sound (intel82xx) and it just started working like a charm.....(after i recomplied alsa and everything else i could do) | 18:17 |
| epicreviews | I want my laptop monitor to be primary martin_henry | 18:17 |
| linux_hates_me | k lynx is installed | 18:18 |
| toneman77 | epicreviews, does the second monitor appear in the display settings? | 18:18 |
| epicreviews | yes | 18:18 |
| JohnnyBGoode | toneman77, its the purple-2 folder in my Pidgin folder. I am trying to add a plugin that was not included | 18:18 |
| Vili | Hi Evrey! | 18:18 |
| tones | linux_hates_me: run lynx and hey presto | 18:18 |
| epicreviews | yes @ toneman77 | 18:18 |

| linux_hates_me | whats the exact command tones | 18:18 |
| toneman77 | epicreviews, but it doesnt turn on ? | 18:18 |
| linux_hates_me | dont htink run lynx and hey presto is going to work heh | 18:18 |
| bdizzle | hi | 18:19 |

| JohnnyBGoode | toneman77 /usr/lib/purple-2 | 18:19 |
| linux_hates_me | ok thanks | 18:19 |
| martin_henry | epicreviews can you identify monitors in display settings? | 18:19 |
| epicreviews | both monitors are on. I want my laptop monitor to be primary, and my external to be secondary with desktop extension | 18:19 |
| bdizzle | or use kile | 18:19 |
| epicreviews | I can identify both monitors | 18:19 |
| bdizzle | I was wondering if someone could help me with auto-mounting partitions upon startup, and helping me locate a partition that is detected, but unable to be used | 18:19 |
| toneman77 | JohnnyBGoode, then copy the file with sudo cp /path/where/your/file.so /usr/lib/... | 18:19 |
| linux_hates_me | err what was that again, bsr? | 18:20 |
| martin_henry | epicreviews: what driver re u using for display adapter? | 18:20 |
| tones | linux_hates_me: bsd :) | 18:20 |
| martin_henry | *are | 18:20 |
| toneman77 | epicreviews, is there anything visible on your second monitor? | 18:20 |
| Vili | ^_^ | 18:20 |
| epicreviews | I'm not sure what driver martin henry | 18:20 |
| packetcase | does kde3 look less like vista than kde4? | 18:20 |

| ODDity | we all has a flavour | 18:20 |
| tones | linux_hates_me: yup, freebsd is most popular | 18:21 |
| toneman77 | JohnnyBGoode, sudo cp /home/JohnnyBGoode/Desktop/filename.so /usr/lib/... | 18:21 |
| linux_hates_me | netbsd, openbsd, freebsd ? | 18:21 |

| silare | For Presentation software? o_o | 18:37 |

| epicreviews | yes! | 18:38 |

| civpro | repnop, care to explain? | 18:39 |

| repnop | there are ways but they aren't legal. | 18:39 |
| epicreviews | @ c0ntract0r - nope | 18:39 |
| repnop | depends on your hardware mostly | 18:40 |
| civpro | well im more worried about hardware compatibility issues | 18:40 |
| repnop | there are hacks for amd64 etc also though | 18:40 |
| silare | It's illegal, but it's all about your hardware. | 18:40 |
| silare | Intel will have it easier than AMD. | 18:40 |
| civpro | ya i got a amd cpu | 18:40 |

| hhp2k1 | Hey everyone! =) Happy sunday / Monday. I have a question regarding Dual Monitor Setups in Ubuntu 9.04 - I'm using an older PC, with an NVIDIA Geforce3 64MB AGP - and a second monitor plugged into the PC's on-board video, which is an intel chipset. How do I get started on making the second screen work? | 18:40 |

| epicreviews | help me I still can't get rid of this box!!! http://i210.photobucket.com/albums/bb99/Cyndaquil-Thrill/Screenshot-1.png | 18:40 |

| civpro | i heard good things about it | 18:42 |
| civpro | unlike vista | 18:42 |
| repnop | vista wasn't bad | 18:42 |
| silare | Windows 7 is quite an improvement over Vista. But they have no Guest Mode. D: And they need some better software. | 18:42 |
| silare | Vista was average. But for something that took them so many years to release it's a disappointment more or less. | 18:42 |
| repnop | silare: i use virtual machines as guest mode ;) | 18:42 |
| silare | xD Yeah. I usually do too. | 18:43 |

| billybigrigger_ | !dontzap | 18:50 |
| ubottu | 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. | 18:50 |

| rumpel2 | [1]kino, press ESC (i guess) while booting.. then the grub boot-menu should appear | 19:34 |

| Dante123 | Addition: the deb file ran, it is the firstclass executable that wont | 19:40 |
| CarresMD | ch0de: It will replace the compiz window manager.. So I shouldn't be messup .. Then change the settings of compiz using whatever you've used .. And then type 'compiz --replace' in the terminal | 19:40 |

| th0r | lakotajames: I don't think I want to get into configuring a firewall....it isn't a one liner | 19:46 |
| JoshJ | lakotajames, if you have a router you can handle it there | 19:46 |
| JoshJ | just block incoming connections on that port to that computer | 19:46 |
| JoshJ | very easy to do on a linksys or similar | 19:47 |
| th0r | lakotajames: you can also block it at the wifi router in most routers. | 19:47 |
| th0r | lakotajames: but each will be different so I can't begin to guess on that one | 19:47 |
| paul68 | I have a usb external drive connected to my server however it somehow doesn't show when I enter df -h how do I solve this? | 19:47 |
| lakotajames | th0r, JoshJ: K, imma try that | 19:47 |
| jake | You can use either GRUB or LILO to dual-boot Windows 2000/Windows XP and Linux. Both functionally work fine, but from what I've read, GRUB requires less maintenance, as LILO requires you to reinstall the boot loader | 19:47 |
| Dante123 | th0r could this be a 64 bit versus 32bit problem, This is my first go with 64 bit | 19:47 |
| th0r | lakotajames: I believe all routers though default to NO forwarding, so I suspect you forwarded port 80 in the router | 19:47 |
| th0r | Dante123: don't know....have avoided 64 bit so far | 19:48 |
| clearscreen | dtchen: I reinstalled exaile, killed pulseaudio, then played a random file in exaile (which probably reinitialized pulseaudio properly, although I manually tried pulseaudio -D before).. sound back again now | 19:48 |
| lakotajames | th0r: yeah, I did. But I removed the entry just now, but for whatever reason you can still get to it | 19:48 |
| JoshJ | lakotajames, yeah, th0r is right. you might want to look at portforward.com and do what it says for your router, but block instead of forward at the key step | 19:48 |
| JoshJ | lakotajames, restart your router then maybe | 19:48 |
| entraide-net | pavucontrol don't work at all , what I do ??? | 19:48 |
| th0r | lakotajames: did you restart the router? some routers won't see the changes until they are restarted | 19:48 |

| paul68 | I have a usb external drive connected to my server however it somehow doesn't show when I enter df -h how do I solve this? | 19:50 |

| Dante123 | new install of 9.04 64 bit, I have had the system lockup twice. ctrl-alt-bkspace is disabled by default in 9.04. How to reenable? | 19:51 |
| JoshJ | in xchat it's easy enough to do | 19:51 |
| deany | !dontzap | 19:51 |
| ubottu | 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. | 19:51 |
| jrib | !dontzap | Dante123 | 19:51 |

| mach | grip, ogmrip (how to rip CD) | 19:52 |
| th0r | maynards-girl: install grip | 19:52 |
| evantandersen | when i try to load a module, i have to modprobe it then insmod to get it to load. Either by itself does not work. | 19:52 |

| deany | its ext2 | 20:32 |

| mzz | deany: are you sure it's actually copying, not just comparing timestamps? | 20:32 |
| ignacio | bil/leave | 20:32 |
| Slart | !ask | Andy1 | 20:32 |
| ubottu | Andy1: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line, so others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) | 20:32 |
| mneptok | deany: what rsync options did you use? | 20:32 |

| tones | spikes: that means the mike is working. try adding a mike boost, maybe its just silent | 20:34 |
| mzz | deany: 1300 files shouldn't take that long, unless either the source or dest filesystem has some problem causing the timestamp comparisons to fail. If you let it run a second time how many bytes does it actually transfer (there should at least be a summary at the end, depending on switches also updates as it runs)? | 20:34 |
| tsrk | Hey guys and gals, I'm having a problem that makes me feel really stupid, and I'm probably just missing something.

| mneptok | deany: how does it hurt? | 20:35 |
| DrHalan | sebsebseb: i already have that? maybe its because i run 64bit? other restricted things work | 20:35 |

| deany | mneptok, it doesnt solve my problem, | 20:36 |
| Slart | tsrk: I'm not sure if you can run the screens cloned at different resolutions.. try to set the external monitor as the "primary" monitor.. it will mess up the display on the laptop but I'm guessing it's the external one that is important, no? | 20:36 |
| mzz | deany: that's *if* it's actually copying a second time. | 20:36 |
| sebsebseb | DrHalan: mplayer should be able to play it, and other players | 20:36 |
| nmvictor | Slart:i know,i just thought i ubottu talked of you geussing,so ifigured you needed a fix.anyway,its ok | 20:36 |
| h00k | Does anyone know of some FOSS recovery software that will work on ext2? Its a 500gb external and I don't have 500gb to image it, fsck freezes up when I try it, bad blocks. | 20:36 |
| mneptok | deany: rsync works perfectly for me. it does not for you. you asked for help. feel free to ignore it. | 20:36 |

| w00tz | hi, i googled by dynex dx-busb wireless adapter card and i realize that it has terrible support by dynex on linux. i do know that it is a broadcom driver though, which was recently released here: http://www.broadcom.com/support/802.11/linux_sta.php . all the tutorials i am reading are referencing something called 'wl' and 'ssb' which don't mean anythign for me. i compiled the driver that broadcom has on their website, but, i'm not sure how | 20:37 |
| kora-chan | tsrk: youcould try setting the resolution manually with xrandr or you can look in the the menu of gnome for screenresollution to change them there. i guess for gnome to recognize the native resolution of your screen, the screen has already to be plugged in when x starts | 20:37 |
| Linuz2009 | why my computer started to slow when I check for badblocks | 20:37 |
| deany | mzz, i dont know if its copying it all over again, even its its not, which it shouldnt be cuz nothing is new/changed, its goin though them all , slowly. | 20:37 |
| h00k | Slart: Yeah, they pull files with arbitrary names, I'd like to see if I can keep my directory structure | 20:37 |
| nathan_ | i need some help... i have an imac g3 and i just recently installed ubuntu 8.04 on it. it booots up fine but when it starts to take me to the desktop the screen goes blank... some kind of display issue... now i dont know if any of u know but imacs use a different boot loader its called yaboot and i dont know how configure the display using yaboot so if someone could please help me.. that be awesome. | 20:37 |
| tsrk | Slart, actually, what would be best is to have them set up as side-by-side screens with different resolutions, because I'm going to be doing presentations with a projector, so I still need to be able to use the laptop screen. I got them set up as side-by-side, but the maximum resolution for the monitor was the same as the max resolution for the netbook. | 20:37 |
| Linuz2009 | I've checked badblocks in the command line but it does nothing | 20:37 |
| mzz | deany: again, *check* if it is actually copying (if you're not familiar with what the output should look like the easiest way is to wait for the summary, or rerun it twice on a much smaller set of data so you can get at the summary faster) | 20:37 |
| Linuz2009 | I check badblocks on dev/sda1 | 20:38 |
| mzz | deany: I suspect the resolution of timestamps between the two filesystems is different and you need - | 20:38 |
| mzz | err | 20:38 |
| chaorain | Has any one had problems with ext4 stability? | 20:38 |
| Slart | tsrk: that's probably because it still thinks of the laptop screen as the primary screen.. if you put the external monitor as the primary screen you'll be limited by that resolution.. which might be more or less suitable for the laptop screen | 20:38 |
| mzz | deany: I suspect the resolution of timestamps between the two filesystems is different and you need --modify-window, but *check* if it's actually transferring everything again or if it's slow for some other reason | 20:38 |

| JmZ | read again ubottu | 21:05 |
| Ljorring | Flannel: I might be looking for something graphical | 21:05 |
| carpii | i had to do that for my monitor, even tho ubuntu claims it had detected it | 21:05 |
| Slart | loren: pulseaudio is like a mixer for alsa sound devices.. you can for example start playing sound using one soundcard (an mp3) and while it's playing you can switch it to another soundcard, perhaps connected to the stereo at your livingroom | 21:05 |

| JmZ | ok just try help me | 21:06 |
| hassan_ | how can i stopted ubuntu ask password | 21:06 |
| Flannel | JmZ: When you install drivers that aren't in the repositories (like from the nvidia site), you will have to reinstall them every time you upgrade your kernel. | 21:06 |
| Gho | JmZ: When you ask one question over many many many lines, it gets broken up and hard to read as other text is interspersed throughout your question. That is why we ask you to put your complete question/problem on one line. | 21:06 |
| loren | I have vlc | 21:06 |
| Flannel | hassan_: Why do you want to? | 21:06 |
| carpii | we are, but dont get an attitude k | 21:06 |
| JmZ | yes i know flannel but i dont want them | 21:06 |
| JmZ | i want the original ubuntu nvidia ones i had | 21:06 |
| carpii | the hardware drivers manager usually lets you roll back to an earlier version | 21:07 |
| loren | I better just leave the file alone | 21:07 |
| loren | right? | 21:07 |
| JmZ | the hardware drivers shows nothing in it | 21:07 |
| user1 | I've found that in Ubuntu 9.04 running Totem causes the following problem. Pressing volume keys on keyboard triggers the Growl notification but doesn't actually change the master volume. My only fix so far as to change all the file associations so that Totem never gets launched, But once it has been ran, I don't know how to reverse the change it causes. | 21:07 |
| JmZ | its blank | 21:07 |
| Flannel | JmZ: For the record (to give you an example of how you can ask better questions): You haven't said that yet. | 21:07 |
| Gho | JmZ: at the console, use dpkg-query -l | grep ii | grep nvidia to see which nvidia drivers you have installed, then use sudo apt-get remove <package> to remove then | 21:07 |

| StevenTyler | ok thanks | 21:12 |
| StevenTyler | what? | 21:12 |
| Flannel | StevenTyler: They will be preserved. When the upgrade does its upgrade, it'll ask you if there are config file conflicts (and then ask what you want to do, edit, save backup, etc) | 21:12 |
| rumpel2 | if you want secureity, make a backup (as always) | 21:12 |

| h00k | Artelus: if you use apt-get, when a new version hits the repository it will be automatically updated. | 21:14 |
| user1 | Artelus: apt-get/aptitude because it's better to use the repositories for your distro | 21:14 |

| Soul_Shadow | ooohh ok tehn you might have a cd-rom issue you try replace it? | 21:19 |
| dom_ | comment allez vous???? | 21:19 |
| Soul_Shadow | this sounds like a hardware issue | 21:19 |
| Gho | AustinS: AH, that's the part I missed. I don't watch a lot of embedded media | 21:19 |
| Linuz2009 | IF anyone going to answer me then the question I had to ask is my computer is frozen and I can't check my file system for bad block | 21:19 |

| Yondering | hhp2k1, without knowing better.. my first guess would be No. It would mean installing two X servers, and two generally don't coexist well. | 21:20 |

| Stupendoussteve | AustinS: ls -lh that is | 21:21 |
| hhp2k1 | Yondering: Thank you. Installing two X Servers, is it possible though? | 21:21 |
| AustinS | h00k: good idea. Need to remember that more often | 21:21 |
| Gho | Soul_Shadow: indeed; are thre any other indications of something going pear-shaped before that one line? Could you pastebin the output of your apt-get --purge command? | 21:21 |
| hhp2k1 | :| | 21:21 |
| Soul_Shadow | ok hold on | 21:21 |
| h00k | AustinS: you can view the man (manual) page for commands by doing man 'command' to show all possible options and documentation | 21:21 |

| zeroxten2 | hi, i'm trying to rescue a dodgy grub setup on a laptop with an encrypted partition from a live cd. my plan was to access the encrypted volume using cryptsetup, chroot into it and run grub from there to fix it. My problem is that cryptsetup is returning "could not access the device" on a luksOpen even though luksDump looks fine. Any thoughts? many thanks. | 21:22 |
| dreamy | whats a good ati ? anyone ? :) .. pls..:S ? | 21:22 |
| Stupendoussteve | AustinS: Did you cd to Desktop first? | 21:22 |
| Gho | AustinS: try ~/Desktop/AdobeAirInstaller.bin | 21:22 |
| Yondering | hhp2k1, as far as I know, you can install as many as you want.. using more than one at a time though, I doubt it. | 21:22 |

| Soul_Shadow | I cannot get it to install I need 2 purge teh crap before I can install it... | 21:24 |
| Gho | Soul_Shadow: what happens when you try apt-get --reinstall install sun-java6-jre sun-java6-bin ? | 21:25 |
| hassan_ | thank you but praplam dont fixed | 21:25 |
| hhp2k1 | Yondering: Unfortunately, the only hardware I have is ALL old, so I would need to invest about $500 in a fully new PC. :P That's my issue right now. | 21:25 |

| Soul_Shadow | so I canot finish install | 21:25 |
| AustinS | hhp2k1: checking it out. Awesome. Thanks | 21:26 |
| Yondering | hhp2k1, PCI cards are still available.. as are AGP, if you know where to look. | 21:26 |

| Yondering | hhp2k1, suggest doing a little research on newegg before you do, should give you an idea of what's available :) | 21:27 |
| Soul_Shadow | I belive I tried that but I attempt again once I get there.. | 21:28 |
| Soul_Shadow | :P | 21:28 |

| QueenInfamous | ..how? o.o | 21:31 |
| AustinS | Adobe Air wants to install an application in "/op1" is this correct? Where are apps normally stored? | 21:31 |
| Gho | hhp2k1: As long as you're not planning to play Half-Life 2 or FEAR on it, you should be fine ;) | 21:31 |
| Yondering | hhp2k1, ballpark, anyway.. I bet you can find something nicer if you dig. | 21:31 |
| mzz | hhp2k1: I'd expect doubling the ram to make a noticable difference, if you can find ram that fits | 21:31 |

| rumpel2 | QueenInfamous, google for WineHQ+Warcraft | 21:31 |

| AustinS | Gho: let me copy and paste, tiny weird font | 21:31 |
| hhp2k1 | mzz: yeah, 2 512 or 1GB sticks would boost it significantly. It's the USB1.1 that kills me, lol. | 21:31 |
| AustinS | Gho: "/opt" | 21:31 |
| QueenInfamous | Soul_Shadow, i don't know how to install windows:D | 21:31 |
| zeroxten2 | me neither... no useful error whatsoever | 21:31 |
| Gho | AustinS: /opt is.. infrequently used, but it's not unheard of. | 21:32 |
| hhp2k1 | Yondering: Well thank you for pointing me in the right direction :D | 21:32 |
| Soul_Shadow | LLLool | 21:32 |
| mzz | hhp2k1: that's fixable, I think (there are pci cards out there that add usb ports) | 21:32 |
| Soul_Shadow | put in disk & follow instructions lmfao | 21:32 |
| hhp2k1 | Gho: I just want two monitors, haha. | 21:32 |
| AustinS | Gho: where are apps normally /bin or something? | 21:32 |
| AustinS | Gho: usr/bin maybe? | 21:32 |
| QueenInfamous | Soul_Shadow, that's too big of a deal | 21:32 |
| Soul_Shadow | when u come to partition manager just make a seperate partition for ntfs | 21:32 |
| QueenInfamous | can't I just emulate it? | 21:32 |
| hhp2k1 | mzz: This is true. I might pick one of those up too ... they're rather cheap, I believe. | 21:32 |
| Soul_Shadow | you can use the linux cd to do that | 21:32 |

| === edson is now known as ecanto | ||
| mzz | hhp2k1: upgrading the ram from 512MiB to 1280MiB really helped multitasking-wise. Running a browser with a bunch of tabs tends to eat up 200MiB or so, so there's not that much room left with 512 total. | 21:36 |
| Yondering | hhp2k1, look for something from a prominent hardware vendor.. couple more I'd recommend looking at.. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814150107 and http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814121260 | 21:36 |
| Linuz2009 | no. it doesn't but that person could leave a note next time | 21:36 |
| mzz | hhp2k1: well, not quite 200MiB, but still | 21:36 |
| Linuz2009 | so again | 21:36 |
| Gho | unop: well, the channel is logged, so the questioner could read the log later to look for an answer. | 21:36 |
| hhp2k1 | mzz: Not quite, but close. :P | 21:36 |

| nowth | had to try | 21:43 |
| SirErugor | tneyrpo, no | 21:43 |
| jussi01 | nowth: whats the issue? | 21:43 |
| tneyrpo | can't ssh in anymore | 21:43 |
| Slart | Slasher`: google for forkbomb | 21:43 |
| mzz | tneyrpo: can bring the system to a grinding halt if it doesn't have a limit on the number of processes per user | 21:43 |
| Gho | Slasher`: it's a recursive forking process | 21:43 |
| Linuz2009 | so anyone is willing to answer my question | 21:43 |
| SirErugor | tneyrpo, it's a fork bomb.. it only stops when there are no more ram left or inodes | 21:44 |
| tneyrpo | does it use 100% cpu as well or anything like that? | 21:44 |
| mzz | tneyrpo: yep | 21:44 |
| SirErugor | tneyrpo, which brings the system to its knees | 21:44 |
| Slasher` | ahh i see, just curious, thanks Slart and Gho | 21:44 |
| tneyrpo | basically, is it safe to leave it running until tomorrow morning? | 21:44 |
| SirErugor | tneyrpo, it never stops ;) | 21:44 |
| tneyrpo | otherwise i'd have to drive to the university right now and reboot the machine | 21:44 |
| Slart | tneyrpo: it probably won't kill anything.. but the computer might be unusable | 21:44 |
| tneyrpo | no problem | 21:45 |
| mzz | tneyrpo: the cpu usage is not much of a problem though. Problem is it's exponentially spawning more processes, and they all need a bit of ram to run. So it tends to thrash to a halt swapping bazillions of processes in and out. | 21:45 |
| SirErugor | tneyrpo, I'd go for a ride if it was me | 21:45 |
| Slart | tneyrpo: it's just a useless program that tries to run itself a gazillion times | 21:45 |
| hhp2k1 | Awesome, found a second PCI ATI card. let's see if I can get this puppy rolling. | 21:45 |
| tneyrpo | it's not an important server | 21:45 |
| Gho | tneyrpo: or just reboot gracefully while you still can | 21:45 |
| nowth | jussi01, I *can* resume from Suspend-to-RAM, but the screen now remains dead on TTY1-6. I can type there, run commands and everything, an X comes back up, too. | 21:45 |
| hhp2k1 | BRB everyone! | 21:45 |
| Linuz2009 | Hi, my computer had this long humming sound and I want to know what does that mean, I know my CPU is pretty averaged and my memory had used more than half | 21:45 |
| * hhp2k1 blasts off into the realm of dusty old hardware heaven | 21:45 | |
| jussi01 | nowth: which gfx card? | 21:45 |
| Slart | gazillions.. bazillion.. my bad ;) | 21:45 |
| nowth | geforce 7950 GT | 21:45 |
| mzz | tneyrpo: if you can still log in you can probably find a way to kill the problematic processes, although that's also a bit annoying because they're all bash | 21:45 |
| nowth | the problem doesn't require me to start X | 21:46 |
| c0ntract0r | where can someone upload a screenshot for a temp url easily? | 21:46 |
| Gho | Linuz2009: is the hum perhaps coming from one of your fans? | 21:46 |
| Slart | c0ntract0r: imagebin | 21:46 |
| Linuz2009 | Gho: it is. | 21:46 |
| tneyrpo | ok, guess i should have tried it in a VM first. thanks for your help :) | 21:46 |
| Gho | Linuz2009: Well, if the humming noise is coming from your fan, it's not a software problem- you just have a noisy fan | 21:46 |
| Soul_Shadow | I now have java thx all for ur help | 21:46 |
| Gho | Soul_Shadow: \o/ my pleasure | 21:47 |
| nowth | jussi: when I can boot into a console and never start X, I still have same problem. | 21:47 |
| Linuz2009 | Gho: the light is constantly blink so rapidly that its like a light now | 21:47 |
| Gho | Linuz2009: your fan has a.. light on it? | 21:47 |
| Soul_Shadow | ok guess not | 21:47 |
| nowth | Gho: mine does, too | 21:47 |
| Soul_Shadow | I need firefox plugin now :P | 21:47 |
| Gho | tneyrpo: Now you know not to run unknown commands on a production envirnoment | 21:47 |
| nadan_ | how do i load a module? lmod | grep ntfs doesn't come up with nething | 21:47 |
| nadan_ | lsmod rather | 21:48 |
| Soul_Shadow | is it sun-java-plugin?? the package? | 21:48 |
| Linuz2009 | Gho: No, the cylinder symbol on a laptop | 21:48 |
| guntbert | nadan_: modprobe ... | 21:48 |
| static | does anyone know if there's a way to get samba not to work like crap on ubuntu server 8.04? | 21:48 |
| Linuz2009 | Gho: you know what I mean, its like telling you how busy it is. | 21:48 |
| Gho | Linuz2009: when you said the humming noise was coming from a fan, I apparently made a bad assumtion that the noise was in fact coming from a fan. Perhaps I had bad information. | 21:48 |
| nadan_ | lolz at the fact that my computer doesn't have modprobe i thought that was it :-\ | 21:49 |
| Soul_Shadow | Hey gho u know what package name for firefox java plugin is?? | 21:49 |
| Linuz2009 | Gho: well fan is inside my PC and a fan is a another physical device | 21:49 |
| LjL | Linuz2009: no, it's simply telling you when the hard drive is being accessed. | 21:50 |
| Gho | Soul_Shadow: sun-java6-plugin :) | 21:50 |
| Soul_Shadow | thx I just found it :P | 21:50 |
| LjL | Linuz2009: nothing to do with fans, or for that matter nothing intrinsically to do with business (although it's likely that when your computer is very, very busy, your hard drive will get a lot of use) | 21:50 |
| Linuz2009 | LjL: then why the cylinder symbol is a light now? | 21:50 |
| Linuz2009 | LjL: it suppose to blink | 21:51 |
| Gho | Linuz2009: because something's accessing your hard drive | 21:51 |
| LjL | Linuz2009: because the hard drive is being used all the time. | 21:51 |
| Linuz2009 | Gho: then what should I do, my computer are getting slower | 21:51 |
| jake | whats the problem linuz2009 | 21:52 |
| Linuz2009 | jake: cylinder symbol on my laptop is a light now and instead of blinking. | 21:52 |
| Linuz2009 | jake: someone told me that something is accessing my hard drive | 21:52 |
| Gho | Linuz2009: I'd look into what programs you have running that might be indexing your hard drive | 21:53 |
| mrpockets | hey friends | 21:53 |

| eugman | Is there a tool for renaming filenames so they can be moved to a flash drive? | 21:53 |

| Supersaiyan_IV | I'd like to somebody to confirm a Compiz bug for me. 1.Run gedit with two tabs running 2. enter the compiz 'scale' effect 3. while in scale effect close gedit by clicking mouse3 on it. Compiz should crash. | 21:54 |
| Gho | Linuz2009: If your hard drive is being accessed constantly, it may cause it to run hotter, which in turn will cause your comptuer to turn up some fans. This is normal. | 21:54 |
| stillfree | hi!!!! | 21:54 |
| Linuz2009 | Gho: then what cause my computer to freeze? | 21:54 |
| Supersaiyan_IV | if somebody finds the bug, im filing it on launchpad | 21:55 |
| Soul_Shadow | OK I need help I have java all installed but it shows up white screen & I know the game works | 21:55 |
| Linuz2009 | guntbert: yes | 21:55 |
| mzz | chaosphere: did you grow the partition, and was the size in df before equal to what it is now? | 21:55 |
| Gho | Soul_Shadow: sometime Java apps take a while to initialize, especially if Java's not yet been run on that system. Give it a couple minutes. | 21:55 |
| chaosphere | mzz: yes you are right. I grew it for about 3gig | 21:56 |
| AustinS | Do I need any type of virus protection or any other security stuff? I have Adblock+ and Better Privacy for Firefox. Is anything else really necessary? | 21:56 |
| LjL | !virus | 21:56 |
| ubottu | A/V software is available, however read this to understand why Linux does not have a virus problem: http://librenix.com/?inode=21 | 21:56 |
| Soul_Shadow | possible I need 2 restart os? | 21:56 |
| guntbert | Linuz2009: I killed my tracker applet because of max cpu use, there seems to be a problem (like "index corrupt") | 21:56 |
| eugman | LjL: It didn't specify what was wring but i tried copying over some files and it said invalid filename. They have names like eng-301-podcast-2259-215494.mp3 | 21:56 |
| LjL | AustinS: if you are not behind a firewalling router, you might consider a firewall | 21:56 |
| dreamy | whats a good ati to game ? anyone ? | 21:56 |
| ikonia | dreamy: ati to game ? | 21:56 |
| Linuz2009 | guntbert: my CPU is not maxed | 21:56 |
| LjL | eugman: no idea why those would be invalid... | 21:56 |
| mzz | chaosphere: sounds like for some reason the partition was resized but the filesystem on it wasn't. I'd expect unmounting the partition and running "resize2fs /dev/sda2" to help (but back up your data first, etc) | 21:56 |
| dreamy | i good ati.. that i can buy.. to game :) | 21:57 |
| AustinS | LjL: is firewall not on by default? How do I configure a firewall? I am behind a router, but it is a laptop and I travel. | 21:57 |
| dreamy | ikonia | 21:57 |
| ikonia | dreamy: try ##hardware | 21:57 |
| LjL | !firewall | AustinS | 21:57 |
| ubottu | AustinS: Ubuntu, like any other linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'ufw' command (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Uncomplicated_Firewall_ufw), or 'iptables' (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo). GUI applications such as Firestarter/Gufw (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE) also exist | 21:57 |

| dreamy | ikonia: ty .. no one answered it #ati | 21:57 |
| eugman | LjL: hmm, maybe it's the foldername then. I'll have to check | 21:57 |
| === mirk_ is now known as mirk | ||
| LjL | AustinS: no firewall is on by default, because there are very few open services by default, so if you don't install any services... | 21:57 |

| AustinS | I'm studying to be an IT Auditor, just finished school, and that is why I am trying to learn my way around linux a little bit better before I start later this month. Security is something I really have to focus on. I've been using linux on and off for about 8 years but never consistently enough to feel really comfortable like I do in Windows. | 21:58 |
| Linuz2009 | guntbert: CPU in the mid 30's - 40's | 21:58 |
| guntbert | Linuz2009: no idea then - but you could still "pause" tracker - see if it helps | 21:59 |
| chaosphere | mzz: i was afraid you'll advice me to this. can i do a backup with dd into an image and play it back if something goes wrong? | 21:59 |
| Linuz2009 | guntbert: pause tracker? | 21:59 |
| eugman | LjL: Ah, it looks like the directory was named poorly. Thanks for stirring my memory. | 21:59 |
| Soul_Shadow | ok been least 5 min since last laod java not working any suggestions? everythingis installed.. | 22:00 |
| mzz | chaosphere: yes (and I must admit I've used resize2fs myself without doing extra backups of partitions involved, although my data files are backed up regularly) | 22:00 |
| h00k | Soul_Shadow: have you tired to restart Firefox before you tried it? | 22:00 |
| chaosphere | mzz: ok i give it a try. Thanks a lot for helping! | 22:01 |

| dkulchenko | So... I've installed Ubuntu 8.10 (actually Linux Mint 6, but whatever) onto a 4G USB drive, and "usb-creator" generated a 3.1GB casper-rw file for persistence.

| quizme | vcoolio i read it but it's complicated | 22:05 |
| Soul_Shadow | actually teh java works to a point in Runscape teh nturns white on laod & stays at loading some crap | 22:05 |
| mzz | chaosphere: you'll have to do this with the partition unmounted afaik, which means from a livecd if it's / | 22:05 |
| rizvan | then i did locate -i *.pdf|find delete | 22:05 |

| c0ntract0r | Can anyone tell me how to install an equalizer on amarok with 9.04? | 22:05 |
| rizvan | find -delete | 22:06 |
| Soul_Shadow | OK I am running a diffrent java applet & I cannot access it either | 22:06 |
| rizvan | find -delete is like find -exec rm {} \; | 22:06 |
| mzz | rizvan: most likely it would've given you "find: `delete': No such file or directory". If there actually *is* a file or directory called "delete" it would've listed its contents | 22:06 |
| Soul_Shadow | everything installedwithout errors so why would my java not function now? | 22:06 |
| VCoolio | quizme: first add the repository lines. Open synaptic, go to settings > repositories | 22:06 |
| mzz | rizvan: ahhh, find -delete, not find delete | 22:06 |
| mzz | rizvan: I'm pretty sure you wanted "xargs rm", not "find -delete" | 22:06 |

| Supersaiyan_IV | erUSUL, here gedit crashes compiz when closed in scale mode | 22:57 |
| IndyGunFreak | andres_: did the instructions call for you to run ./configure ? | 22:57 |
| Linuz2009 | restart COMputer. | 22:57 |
| Supersaiyan_IV | erUSUL, I'll look some more | 22:57 |
| erUSUL | andres__: it means exactly what it says... is there a makefile in the directory you runned make ? | 22:57 |
| andres__ | IndyGunFreak, yes, I did that before | 22:57 |
| IndyGunFreak | andres_: did you get any errors | 22:57 |
| Linuz2009 | should help me resolve the problem and shut down for several seconds. you think? | 22:57 |
| andres__ | IndyGunFreak, it says Stop. I don't know if that is an error | 22:58 |
| Sebboh | Did naked person leave? S/He needs this: http://ubuntuforums.org/tags.php?tag=88W8687 | 22:58 |
| Linuz2009 | power problem doesn;t seem to be the primarily cause and so try to see if it works. By the way the computer's very hot and I think I need to shut down | 22:58 |
| IndyGunFreak | !pastebin | andres_ probably.. run ./configure and pastebin the results. | 22:58 |

| jeffreyf1 | is there any way of repairing an install gone bad? | 23:00 |
| U-b-u-n-t-u | dtchen, ok | 23:00 |
| Soul_Shadow | No it would be stable & functional | 23:00 |
| IndyGunFreak | Soul_Shadow: i have no trouble installing anything... | 23:01 |
| dtchen | jeffreyf1: if you have an alternate installer disk, you can choose the rescue option from the boot menu | 23:01 |
| Gho | jeffreyf1: it depends on how badly it went. | 23:01 |
| IndyGunFreak | Soul_Shadow: lol, yeah,s table and functional, jst like windows. | 23:01 |

| andres__ | IndyGunFreak, ubottu ... pastebin http://pastebin.com/m3fca36b1; I'm trying to configure brightness in ubuntu 9.04 on my sony vaio | 23:01 |
| Soul_Shadow | dunno why java6 does nto funtion in ubuntu 9.04 | 23:01 |
| chaorain | maccam-sager, 9.04 | 23:01 |
| Soul_Shadow | No u cannot | 23:01 |
| U-b-u-n-t-u | dtchen, it doesnt even show up in Gparted | 23:02 |
| Soul_Shadow | 9.04 its not there | 23:02 |
| jeffreyf1 | dtchen and Gho: it was a long standing 8.10 upgraded to 9.04. Having video issue with nvidia drivers | 23:02 |
| Soul_Shadow | u have to apt-get it | 23:02 |
| Soul_Shadow | Even after I did a sudo apt-gt update | 23:02 |
| IndyGunFreak | andres_: what is your graphics device? | 23:02 |
| Soul_Shadow | & I also updated all my software | 23:02 |
| dtchen | jeffreyf1: using the repository's nvidia drivers? | 23:02 |
| IndyGunFreak | Soul_Shadow: i have java6 and it works fine | 23:02 |
| Gho | jeffreyf1: try apt-get --reinstall install <your NV driver package> | 23:02 |
| Soul_Shadow | Ur not using 9.04 | 23:02 |
| dtchen | U-b-u-n-t-u: is the device recognised when you insert it (via dmesg)? | 23:02 |
| Soul_Shadow | probly 8.10 | 23:02 |
| IndyGunFreak | lol, ok | 23:03 |
| chaorain | maccam-sager, for 8.10 I just used one off of http://getdeb.net but they dont have one for 9.04 | 23:03 |
| setuid | Anyone know how to configure Compiz? | 23:03 |
| jeffreyf1 | dtchen: yes...i eneabled the restricted driver and it failed to download but it thinks it is installed because it is trying to use a non-existent driver | 23:03 |
| U-b-u-n-t-u | dtchen, when I instead the usb drive nothing happens at all I had a bad windows shut down so I am assuming thats the issue | 23:03 |
| IndyGunFreak | Soul_Shadow: well let me explain it this way, Frostwire requires java, i installed java6(per the repositories), and frostwire runs perfectly.. i've also got the java6 firefox plugin, which works fine | 23:03 |
| IndyGunFreak | and yes, i'm using 9.04 | 23:03 |
| Soul_Shadow | I ahte 8.10 cus all the broken & buggy issues | 23:03 |
| IndyGunFreak | Soul_Shadow: for someone who is completely clueless, you sure know it all. | 23:04 |
| Soul_Shadow | but 9.04 I justhave to wait for teh software to catch up with linux | 23:04 |
| Gho | setuid: use compizconfig-settings-manager | 23:04 |
| maccam-sager | chaorain: i'd just wait for a deb to be posted on getdeb.net | 23:04 |
| setuid | Gho, What package is that in? | 23:04 |
| ekimmargni | I recently made my swap partition bigger, but now it's not used on startup; I have to set swapon every time. How can I have the swap partition mounted/used automatically? | 23:04 |

| Gho | setuid: that _is_ the package :) | 23:04 |
| Gho | !info configconfig-settings-manager | 23:04 |
| ubottu | Package configconfig-settings-manager does not exist in jaunty | 23:04 |
| IndyGunFreak | andres_: so why are you compiling all that nonsense to adjust your brightness? | 23:04 |
| Soul_Shadow | Indy you obvoiuslly are totally clueless I run 2.5ghz duel core 2 gig ram 160 80 & 250gig HD 256mb video card | 23:04 |

| Gho | !info compizconfig-settings-manager | 23:04 |

| IndyGunFreak | Soul_Shadow: lol, ok, i'm clueless.. and my java6, on 9.04.. works fine | 23:05 |
| chaorain | maccam-sager, how long do you think that will take? | 23:05 |
| Soul_Shadow | only thing Ican see is the software not caught up with linux | 23:05 |
| IndyGunFreak | Soul_Shadow: so the only explanation for the issues you have, is you. | 23:05 |
| maccam-sager | depends on when an uploader gets around to it. it might not be long | 23:05 |
| Soul_Shadow | Indy go fuk urself Ignored | 23:05 |
| Soul_Shadow | Ignorant lil prick | 23:05 |

| maccam-sager | chaorain: if you want, you can hack it by following this guide: http://blink4blog.blogspot.com/2009/04/januty-guide-to-setup-vuze-4.html | 23:06 |
| Soul_Shadow | Indy I bet you updated 9.04 from 8.10 with java 6 already instaleld | 23:06 |
| Soul_Shadow | only way it would work | 23:06 |
| freeflowcauvery | have you updated your /etc/jvm to show /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun right on top? | 23:06 |
| IndyGunFreak | Soul_Shadow: you would lose a lot of bets your making w'/ me.. i clean installed 9.04 on 3 machines, all 3 have java6 | 23:06 |
| chaorain | maccam-sager, Thanks | 23:06 |

| maccam-sager | np | 23:07 |
| Gho | Soul_Shadow: I have a fresh 9.04 with working java6. What is the URL of that applet you are trying to use? I'd like to see if it loads over here | 23:07 |
| IndyGunFreak | Soul_Shadow: then you're following someones instructions who is likely as ignorant as you are | 23:07 |
| Soul_Shadow | DO NOT blame me for your stupidity & ignorance in understanding the facts | 23:07 |
| Gho | !attitude | Soul_Shadow | 23:07 |
| ubottu | Soul_Shadow: The people here are volunteers, your attitude should reflect that. Answers are not always available. See http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines | 23:07 |

| wolfmankurd | tweak66, do you know the where windows parition is in relation to your linux ones? | 23:08 |

Is the best way to do that by a) setting up two separate X servers running simultaneously, b) setting up one X server through something akin to Multiseat, or c) running one X server with Boxee in the foreground? | 23:09 |
| Soul_Shadow | but I also search free%java%games on google with same issues | 23:09 |
| Soul_Shadow | any java applet I use does nto run on java 6 | 23:09 |

| tweak66 | info* | 23:09 |
| setuid | Gho, I found it... i think | 23:10 |
| wolfmankurd | tweak66, run ls /dev |grep sda to see what partitions you have | 23:10 |
| Galaxor | Hi there. After upgrading to jaunty, I can no longer connect to wireless networks with iwconfig ; ifconfig ; dhclient. I can only do so using the network-manager applet, which means I can't log on to wireless when X is not running. | 23:10 |
| Galaxor | What gives? | 23:10 |
| Galaxor | Everything appears to be working until I do dhclient. Then it just never gets a response. | 23:11 |

| Soul_Shadow | brand new freaking pc | 23:14 |
| th0r | tweak66, if you installed xp after linux, then grub is no longer on the mbr....windows replaced it | 23:14 |
| Eevee | Soul_Shadow: what does "not working" mean | 23:14 |
| Gho | IndyGunFreak: "The problem is you" is the very definition of an ad hominem attack. Take a breath. | 23:14 |
| IndyGunFreak | Gho: wellt he problem is him, when it works for several people, other than him, thats not an attack, thats reality. | 23:14 |
| tweak66 | th0r: yes i recovered it. just trying to add windows to the grub menu :) | 23:15 |
| Soul_Shadow | Means opisite of working as in Not working | 23:15 |
| Gho | Soul_Shadow: I'm thinking over here :) | 23:15 |
| wolfmankurd | tweak66, root (hd0,5) | 23:15 |
| IndyGunFreak | anyways, it appears he's beginning to accept the fact the problem is him now, not everyone else. | 23:15 |
| th0r | tweak66, can you get into gnome? | 23:15 |
| Gho | IndyGunFreak: the problem is not him, it's something with his configuration. ANYwho.. | 23:15 |
| tweak66 | ok wolfmankurd i shall try it thank you | 23:15 |
| Soul_Shadow | I cannot synaptic it | 23:15 |
| Soul_Shadow | I cannot add/remove it | 23:15 |
| Eevee | U-b-u-n-t-u: sda1 is probably the drive you're running ubuntu off of right now. if the drive doesn't show up at all then it might be shot | 23:15 |
| IndyGunFreak | Gho: ok.. then HE needs to configure it correctly.. its on his end | 23:15 |
| Soul_Shadow | I cannot even Dpkg it.. | 23:15 |
| Gho | IndyGunFreak: we're working on that. | 23:15 |
| IndyGunFreak | Gho: good, but like i said, the problem is him | 23:16 |
| Galaxor | ubuntuserver: I can't get my wireless working using ifconfig, iwconfig, and dhclient. | 23:16 |
| Galaxor | Only by using network manager. | 23:16 |

| drbobb | hey don't you really hate it when an app silently fails to perform a function, without giving you any sort of error message? Seems that exaile tends to do that, with shoutcast streams for instance.. are you seeing such behavior too? | 23:16 |
| Galaxor | So I have to be in X to get it to work. | 23:16 |
| elad` | How do I disable a keyboard shortcut? I seem only to be able to assign them new value. What if I don't want them at all? | 23:16 |
| alex-weej | elad`: you can hit escape | 23:16 |
| Eevee | elad`: press backspace iirc | 23:16 |
| Gho | Soul_Shadow: try this: close all web browsers, and sudo apt-get --reinstall install sun-java6-plugin sun-java6-jre sun-java6-bin | 23:16 |
| alex-weej | elad`: oops, yes, backspae | 23:17 |
| elad` | backspace did it | 23:17 |
| elad` | Thanks. | 23:17 |
| Soul_Shadow | ok this was 3rd time I installedthis :P | 23:17 |
| elad` | By the way, what's the shortcut for accessing the top menu's drop down lists? | 23:17 |
| Soul_Shadow | actually 4th | 23:17 |

| Gho | U-b-u-n-t-u: /dev/sda is the actual disk; /dev/dsa1 is the partition you need to mount. | 23:18 |
| Soul_Shadow | ok its installed | 23:18 |
| Gho | Soul_Shadow: ok, now that it's done, fire up your browser and give it a try *after* you clear your cache. | 23:19 |
| U-b-u-n-t-u | Gho, when I ls /dev |grep sda and sda1 come up | 23:19 |

| Gho | Soul_Shadow: THEN try runescape :) | 23:20 |
| Gho | U-b-u-n-t-u: what happens when you mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/ ? | 23:20 |
| elad` | ALT-F1 and ALT-Escape seem to have been taken over by "move between windows", even though the entries for "move between windows" there are set to Disabled or ALT-TAB. | 23:21 |

| drbobb | andres_: or sudo pkill X as the case might be | 23:24 |
| Soul_Shadow | It did nto try re-download teh java packages | 23:24 |
| Gho | Soul_Shadow: no, that removed them. | 23:24 |

| deadman | Eevee, no no new window | 23:27 |
| U-b-u-n-t-u | Gho output was sdb sdb1 sbd2 sbd5 | 23:27 |

| joaopinto | Soul_Shadow, apt-get clean | 23:28 |
| Gho | U-b-u-n-t-u: that probably also was not your USB stick as that looks like a drive with three partitions on it. try sdc | 23:28 |

| markg85 | Hi all, I have an issue getting intelfb working on my noteboot (Ubuntu 9.04 x64 with intel 945GM). I've removed the intelfb from the blacklist and added: fbcon, agp, agpgart, intel_agp and intelfb to the modules that need to be loaded. That all followed by a "update-initramfs -u". Now the issue when i reboot with the video=intelfb in gruk i get: "intelfb: cannot acquire agp".... Could someone help me to get this working? Thanx. | 23:28 |
| Soul_Shadow | ther is a command 2 clear the cache & its not clean | 23:28 |
| Soul_Shadow | its sudo apt-cache ??? | 23:28 |
| IndyGunFreak | markg85: its working fine for me w/ 32bit.. | 23:29 |
| lucax | any ideas how can i move my /home directory to another partition?? | 23:29 |
| U-b-u-n-t-u | Gho ls /dev | grep sdc returned nothing | 23:29 |
| Wolf23 | help please | 23:29 |
| markg85 | IndyGunFreak, how did you set it up? | 23:29 |
| mjm52 | th0r | 23:29 |
| maco | Soul_Shadow: wait you mean oher than the package cache? | 23:29 |
| Soul_Shadow | YES! exactly | 23:29 |
| bonobo | lucax=> cut/past | 23:29 |
| mjm52 | it looks like if a file is in rc5.d and starts with an S it is a startup script that is symbolically linked to an /etc/init.d runscript | 23:29 |
| bonobo | *paste | 23:29 |
| IndyGunFreak | markg85: worked out fo the box.. no probs.. 3D didn't work, but I was told to enable proposed updates in the repositories.. i did, and when i updated, it updated the intel driver and it worked fine | 23:29 |
| lucax | bonobo: that would not work... | 23:30 |
| maco | lucax: if you want to use some other partition as /home, boot from a live cd and edit the /etc/fstab on your current / so that the /home line points to the right place | 23:30 |
| Gho | Soul_Shadow: sudo rm /var/cache/apt/archive/*deb | 23:30 |
| markg85 | IndyGunFreak, oing to test that now. | 23:30 |
| th0r | lucax, first mount the second partition to a temp location, then copy all user folders from /home to the new partition. Then edit grubs menu.lst to automatically mount the new partition to /home | 23:30 |
| deadman | i started to upgrade my system to 9.04... things downloaded... when it was installing the upgrades... it got stuck at a point where it says configuring flash-plugininstaller.... it says 5 minutes remaining... please help what should i do? | 23:30 |

| Soul_Shadow | no the package casche is what I ened 2 clear Apt-cache commandhere <--- | 23:30 |
| elad` | Is the MS_WIN key, which is present on practically any non-mac keyboard these days, ignored by linux? | 23:30 |
| markg85 | IndyGunFreak, just out of curiosity.. Where did you read that? | 23:30 |
| Soul_Shadow | cache* | 23:31 |
| th0r | maco, right...my bad...fstab | 23:31 |
| Gho | Soul_Shadow: 'apt-get clean' clears the package cache. | 23:31 |
| joaopinto | Soul_Shadow, apt-get clean | 23:31 |
| maco | Soul_Shadow: apt-get clean clears the package cache, the directory in /var/cache/apt/archives/ | 23:31 |
| IndyGunFreak | markg85: honestly, i don't know.. its on my laptop.. but i read it somewhere, and it worked fine when i tried it. | 23:31 |
| Soul_Shadow | It does not clear everything thats my point | 23:31 |
| Wolf23 | i am using cable modem , amule test shows me error,how can i fix it to successfull? | 23:31 |
| maco | Soul_Shadow: thre's also apt-get autoclean which clears everythign except newest versions of stuff | 23:31 |
| markg85 | IndyGunFreak, and widescreen resolutions also work fine? | 23:31 |
| maco | Soul_Shadow: what's it leabing? | 23:31 |
| maco | *leaving? | 23:31 |
| joaopinto | Soul_Shadow, it clears everything from the cache | 23:31 |
| Soul_Shadow | ther is a apt-cache command I am not getting it to download teh java packages | 23:31 |
| IndyGunFreak | markg85: well, its not a widescreen laptop, so i've never tried them | 23:31 |
| maco | Soul_Shadow: ok so you want to refresh the package lists? | 23:32 |
| maco | Soul_Shadow: that's just apt-get update | 23:32 |
| markg85 | IndyGunFreak, ^_^ | 23:32 |
| Gho | Soul_Shadow: apt-cache is used to search the cache; that's ALL it does | 23:32 |

| Sebboh | elad`. my winkey is Mod4 on linux. It's like an extra alt. On a new machine I'm installing today, I've set my right winkey to be altgr and my context menu key to be compose.. so I can type little Euro symbols and stuff. | 23:32 |
| LjL | Soul_Shadow: it seems that everyone who tries to entertain communication with you ends up abruptly stopping it. perhaps the problem is on your side? | 23:32 |
| Gho | U-b-u-n-t-u: The POSIX people had an apparent aversion to vowels :) | 23:33 |
| Sebboh | elad`, some programs are set up to use mod4 + some key by default--it's useful! | 23:33 |
| U-b-u-n-t-u | =) | 23:33 |
| Eevee | elad`: no, I use the windows key (super, actually) all the time. and in fact I have a mac keyboard! | 23:33 |
| usser | Gho, there's a reason for all the commands missing a letter or two :) | 23:34 |
| elad` | I'd set it to use some more of the shortcuts that are available on Windows, myself. Win+D for Show Desktop, Win+L for locking the screen, etc. | 23:34 |
| maco | LjL: well given that s/he tells us to stop helping... | 23:34 |
| U-b-u-n-t-u | Gho, I had this problem once before windows shutdown the usb drive improperly and I was able to just reboot windows and the drive came up but not this time so I thought maybe since ubuntu is better with mounting etc it could force a reset? | 23:34 |
| deadman | oh fuck!! | 23:34 |
| Soul_Shadow | 3 ppl ignored.. someone HERE told me a command using apt-cache to clear it I remember this but frgot exact command | 23:34 |
| maco | !language | DEA7H | 23:34 |
| ubottu | DEA7H: Please watch your language and topic to help keep this channel family friendly. | 23:34 |
| markg85 | IndyGunFreak, the only intel related update is: xserver-xorg-video-intel... i don't see how that can fix something at boot... | 23:34 |
| maco | oh he left thats why | 23:34 |
| maco | DEA7H: sorry, was aiming for someone who parted | 23:35 |
| Gho | Soul_Shadow: apt-cache does not have any sort of functionality to modift the cache. All it can to is sort throug it for you | 23:35 |
| Soul_Shadow | Deadman |!language | 23:35 |
| IndyGunFreak | markg85: all i know, is when i updated, it worked fine.. but as i said earlier, i use 32bit, not 65 | 23:35 |
| Soul_Shadow | Deadman | !language | 23:35 |
| IndyGunFreak | *64 | 23:35 |
| maco | Soul_Shadow: not how it works, and he already parted | 23:35 |
| Gho | Soul_Shadow: to clear the package cache, the command to use, as many people here have told you, is 'apt-get clean' From the manual: http://pastebin.com/f5e8bcbe1 | 23:35 |
| markg85 | IndyGunFreak, oke. gonna take the gamble and update :P | 23:35 |
| === faby is now known as change | ||
| Sebboh | Eevee, is Super the same as mod4? | 23:35 |
| IndyGunFreak | markg85: get your fire extinguisher.. ;) | 23:35 |
| Eevee | Sebboh: yes, not sure why gnome doesn't just call it super | 23:35 |
| Soul_Shadow | Whatever u say... funny I did it before.. | 23:36 |
| maco | Soul_Shadow: since youre saying that you arent seeing certain packages available to install, it sounds like you dont want to clear the package cache, but rather refresh the apt cache, and that is "apt-get update" | 23:36 |
| synapse | Ok so is thar a way to find say /dev/sdb1 in the format of (hd0,0) ?? | 23:36 |
| elad` | What's with anglo-saxons and the word "fuck"? I doubt you'd object as loudly to the use of "damn". What's the difference? | 23:36 |
| U-b-u-n-t-u | Gho when I sudo mount /dev/sda /mnt/ ....... I get mount: /dev/sda already mounted or /mnt/ busy << could this be the partition? | 23:36 |
| Gho | elad`: it's a much stronger, and this less acceptable, expletive. | 23:36 |
| markg85 | IndyGunFreak, yea, i will need it to cool me down when this breaks my boot resulting in a reinstall :P | 23:36 |
| Eevee | synapse: if you're booting off of sda1, that's most likely (hd1,0) -- it's the drive number followed by partition number, starting from zero | 23:37 |
| IndyGunFreak | markg85: lol, like i said, it worked fine on 32bit.. not sure how it would go on 64 | 23:37 |
| dtchen | U-b-u-n-t-u: you generally wouldn't mount an entire block device but a partition | 23:37 |
| Sebboh | Eevee, awesome (window manager) refers to it as mod4, too. | 23:37 |
| Gho | U-b-u-n-t-u: are you currently in the /mnt/ directory? if so, 'cd /' and then 'sudo umount /mnt' | 23:37 |
| th0r | Eevee, the partition number is one off from the /dev number | 23:37 |
| usser | Eevee, you mean (hd0,1) | 23:37 |
| U-b-u-n-t-u | Gho, I am in the /home/me | 23:37 |
| markg85 | IndyGunFreak, updating now. Where did you set the resolution? in menu.lst or in the modues file where intelfb is loaded | 23:37 |
| Eevee | er. I do? | 23:37 |
| U-b-u-n-t-u | Gho, and /mnt has nothing in it | 23:38 |
| Gho | U-b-u-n-t-u: then it was already unmounted :p | 23:38 |
| th0r | Eevee, sda1 would be hd0,0 I believe | 23:38 |
| frustrateduser | why is it so difficult to set up wireless for ubuntu!! | 23:38 |
| Eevee | he said sdb1 | 23:38 |
| IndyGunFreak | markg85: again, i don't use widescreen, but when I went to sys/pref/display, my preferred res was there | 23:38 |
| Sebboh | elad`, in America 'fuck' is banned from TV most of the time, but 'damn' isn't. I guess 'damn' is in the Bible or some such cruft. | 23:38 |
| U-b-u-n-t-u | Gho right I want to try to mount sda since sda1 worked | 23:38 |
| usser | Eevee, (hd1,1) then | 23:38 |

| U-b-u-n-t-u | Gho when I sudo mount /dev/sda /mnt/ ....... I get mount: /dev/sda already mounted or /mnt/ busy << could this be the partition? | 23:38 |
| th0r | Eevee, sdb1 would be hd1,0 I think | 23:38 |
| Eevee | usser: I thought grub counted partitions from 0 | 23:38 |
| usser | Eevee, err no you're right | 23:38 |
| markg85 | IndyGunFreak, oke. thanx so far, | 23:38 |
| usser | Eevee, sorry, been dealing with lots of broken c code that starts arrays from 1 lately ;) | 23:39 |
| Gho | U-b-u-n-t-u: if you run 'mount' you will probably see that one of the partitions on /dev/sda is already mounted elsewhere | 23:39 |

| ubuntu_ | or..machine? | 23:40 |

| IndyGunFreak | markg85: can't offer any suggestions.. try ubuntuforums maybe... i know 9.04 32bit had some issues w/ the intel driver, maybe 64 does as well, adn it has not been resolved yet | 23:43 |
| mjm52 | oooh | 23:43 |
| Eevee | it's as if a thousand highlights screamed out.. and then were silenced | 23:43 |
| Amaranth | ubuntu_: This channel is not for learning how to break into other computers | 23:43 |
| meoblast001 | hi.. i installed some libraries in order to compile a program from source... but i don't remember the names of the libraries and i don't need them anymore.... is there a way to automatically remove them? | 23:43 |
| mjm52 | that might be true as well | 23:43 |
| usser | meoblast001, nope | 23:43 |
| loud-loud | hi guys, is anyone facing a vertical bright lines just before the pc restarts or shuts down under nvidia graphic card? | 23:43 |
| markg85 | IndyGunFreak, oke, no problem. Thanx for you help anyway | 23:43 |
| mjm52 | the forums online suggest to put what the runscript runs as a gnome startup app | 23:43 |
| Amaranth | meoblast001: deborphan/debfoster but you have to be careful what you remove | 23:44 |
| Gho | meoblast001: apt-get autoremove if you used apt to install them | 23:44 |
| mjm52 | but i'd prefer to use the runscript if possible | 23:44 |
| mjm52 | still need to look into it some | 23:44 |
| Amaranth | Gho: autoremove won't work as he manually installed them | 23:44 |
| th0r | mjm52, that is my thought too...and start it with a 'sleep 120' or some such to give nm a chance | 23:44 |
| Eevee | meoblast001: you could try aptitude search ^lib and look for something not automatically installed | 23:44 |
| meoblast001 | Gho: i did... but they weren't dependencies of anythign else in apt... i chose to install them because i was compiling the program | 23:44 |
| Gho | Amaranth: that's why I used the magic word 'if' :) | 23:44 |
| mjm52 | can't reboot right now, installing Visual Studio 2008 on a Windows 7 Virtual machine | 23:44 |
| Soul_Shadow | Se Gho You all failed java6 still does not work & dunno why | 23:45 |
| ubuntu_ | or somebobi can give me an arhive to scan ip`s? | 23:45 |
| Soul_Shadow | any more idea's ?? :P | 23:45 |
| frustrateduser | exit | 23:45 |
| IndyGunFreak | lol | 23:45 |
| meoblast001 | Amaranth: how does that fidn the packages? | 23:45 |
| Amaranth | Gho: no no, I mean even if he used apt they weren't automatically installed as a dependency of something else so they won't autoremove | 23:45 |
| mjm52 | hate to applaud microsoft while in an ubuntu forum, but windows 7 is kinda neat | 23:45 |
| IndyGunFreak | still, all of us are failing, not him | 23:45 |
| clearscreen | the game | 23:45 |
| Gho | Amaranth: Ah, I sit corrected. | 23:45 |
| Amaranth | meoblast001: they go through every package on your system and ask you if you want to keep it | 23:45 |
| Soul_Shadow | YEah I run windows7 also | 23:45 |
| ubuntu_ | hmm | 23:45 |
| mjm52 | just in VMware for me | 23:45 |
| th0r | mjm52, I have read that they are reintroducing wga | 23:45 |
| ubuntu_ | weird | 23:45 |
| mjm52 | not good enough to be my main OS | 23:45 |
| loud-loud | hi guys, is anyone facing a vertical bright lines just before the pc restarts or shuts down under nvidia graphic card? | 23:45 |
| JoshJ | win7 is not *terrible*... but i only use it for gaming purposes | 23:45 |
| Amaranth | meoblast001: but if you keep ubuntu-desktop all dependencies of ubuntu-desktop will be marked as kept automatically so it isn't as bad as it sounds | 23:45 |
| quentusrex | Can someone help me figure out why I keep getting errors when burning a cd? | 23:45 |
| meoblast001 | Amaranth: how will that help me? i don't know which libraries i need still and which ones i don't | 23:45 |

| usser | mjm52, its great and all, not enough incentive for me to switch from linux though | 23:46 |
| Amaranth | meoblast001: and so on with other packages, keeping banshee will keep the mono stack, etc | 23:46 |
| Soul_Shadow | windows 95 is better then windows Vista LOL | 23:46 |

| mjm52 | ubuntu is just way too usable (and fast!) to xfer over to Windows 7 | 23:46 |
| Amaranth | meoblast001: You end up having to decide on about 100 packages | 23:46 |
| loud-loud | IndyGunFreak> thx for ur reply... do u know the possible cause of this might be? | 23:46 |
| mjm52 | and all apps (games excluded) can run in a VM | 23:46 |
| Soul_Shadow | no about 1000 packages easy :P | 23:47 |
| mjm52 | it gave my disk performance a 7.7/7.9 | 23:47 |
| eseven73 | is there a program that will play a .wav file or something if a process isn't running? | 23:47 |
| joaopinto | mjm52, please stop ! | 23:47 |
| IndyGunFreak | loud-loud: not a clue, like i said, it works fine for me on my PC, no probs at all.. dual screens even works perfectly... which nvidia device? | 23:47 |
| meoblast001 | Amaranth: i'm confused though.. if i don't know what packages i chose to install nor which packages the machine needed, how will i decide? | 23:47 |
| helper | what's command to check in terminal the uptime of server running ? | 23:47 |
| mjm52 | haha | 23:47 |
| mjm52 | stop what/ | 23:47 |
| Amaranth | mjm52: Please take the discussion about Windows elsewhere. | 23:47 |
| usser | mjm52, and windows just doesnt have the same tools readily available, like openvpn, ssh, aircrack, compilers, its just lacking | 23:47 |
| joaopinto | helper, uptime | 23:47 |
| Soul_Shadow | I am VERY confused.. my java6 Does NOT function dunno why | 23:47 |

| Amaranth | meoblast001: If you say you want to keep ubuntu-desktop installed it'll know not to ask about anything that depends on | 23:47 |
| joaopinto | Soul_Shadow, describe "Does NOT function" | 23:47 |
| helper | usser, i want to use it in /etc/motd when someone open ssh it appear, how i can add it ? | 23:47 |
| Gho | Soul_Shadow: have you tried any other java applets other than runescape? | 23:47 |
| usser | Guest93507, with mplayer and w32codecs | 23:48 |
| mjm52 | a little new to IRC, even tho i've known ABOUT it for years | 23:48 |
| joaopinto | Soul_Shadow, did you install the plugin ? | 23:48 |
| Amaranth | meoblast001: If you say you want to keep banshee it'll keep everything it depends on, etc | 23:48 |
| Soul_Shadow | it'll run for a moment hen just go white screen & I get nowhere | 23:48 |
| meoblast001 | Amaranth: i just feel like when it comes upgrade time, i end up upgrading so many packages via the Internet because i don't uninstall enough things i don't need | 23:48 |
| ubugtu | can anyone tell me how to turn compiz off? | 23:48 |
| Soul_Shadow | yes I did | 23:48 |
| Amaranth | meoblast001: you mostly have to tell it what apps you want | 23:48 |
| Soul_Shadow | I also use windows 7 runescape is FINE | 23:48 |
| Eevee | helper: you could add it to the appropriate bash startup script | 23:48 |
| joaopinto | Soul_Shadow, what was the package name ? | 23:48 |
| Soul_Shadow | I said tehta already | 23:48 |
| Amaranth | meoblast001: I run these tools at the end of every development cycle to clean up | 23:48 |
| zvacet | meoblast001: witch libreries you have to install to be able to compile it must be something in install file | 23:48 |
| Soul_Shadow | sun-java6-jre | 23:48 |
| usser | helper, there's isnt an easy way to do this apart from a cron job that outputs uptime to /etc/motd every other minute | 23:48 |
| loud-loud | IndyGunFreak> i have the GeGorce Go 8600M GS, i tried all the drivers provided by the repos and the original Nvidia from their website, the problem presists | 23:48 |
| Amaranth | meoblast001: best part: it remembers your choices for next time | 23:49 |
| meoblast001 | zvacet: i don't remember every program i've ever compiled | 23:49 |
| helper | usser, u mean do crontab every min uptime and then redirect it to /etc/motd ? | 23:49 |
| Guest93507 | can someone help me i cannot watch mov files | 23:49 |
| Amaranth | meoblast001: tell it you want to keep ubuntu-desktop and next time you run it it won't even ask you | 23:49 |
| usser | helper, yes pretty much | 23:49 |
| Amaranth | Guest93507: what program are you using? | 23:49 |
| ar | hi | 23:49 |

| evon | Please i need help with my video driver | 23:49 |
| ReleaseX | guest93507, install ubuntu-restricted-extras | 23:49 |
| Sebboh | Soul_Shadow, I haven't been paying attention. Has someone already told you to go into the java settings (java control panel) and enable the console so you can see what if any error you're getting when you run the app? | 23:49 |
| ar | i'd like to know | 23:50 |
| usser | helper, no, sorry | 23:50 |

| ar | on ubuntu 9.04? | 23:50 |
| evon | apparently i installed the wrong one and now my screen gets all weird then freezes | 23:50 |
| Soul_Shadow | im running java5 & it works screw it | 23:50 |
| Amaranth | ar: update-alternatives maybe | 23:50 |
| evon | i tried xfix and it does not work | 23:50 |

| evon | i have no more ideas | 23:50 |
| ar | how to set python 2.5 default on ubuntu 9.04? | 23:50 |
| Amaranth | ar: oops, looks like that doesn't work, you cannot set 2.5 as the default | 23:51 |
| chuck_ | ubugtu applications/other chose metacity | 23:51 |
| Soul_Shadow | I am sick of fighting with java, java5 runs fine | 23:51 |
| Gho | ar: check out update-alternatives | 23:51 |
| evon | if i could just get the vesa to work i would just install working drivers | 23:51 |
| jrib | ar: you don't want to do that. Just call python2.5 explicitly when you want it | 23:51 |
| Amaranth | ar: well, unless you manually change the symlink in /usr/bin | 23:51 |
| ar | i need it | 23:51 |
| Soul_Shadow | and yes indy ur a jerk & still ignored | 23:51 |
| Amaranth | ar: yeah, what jrib said | 23:51 |

| joaopinto | eseven73, no, you will need to develop a script for that | 23:52 |
| evon | Amaranth: any ideas? | 23:52 |
| Sebboh | ... alternative install, "install console only system" menu option, debconf priority set to low (expert), no boxes checked in tasksel, and this fscking thing just installed evolution or whatever that mail thing is called. You're fired, Ubuntu. | 23:52 |
| Amaranth | evon: You didn't put my nick before anything you said so I didn't see it | 23:53 |
| Amaranth | evon: Please explain again | 23:53 |
| f4000 | thanks @unop, @ubottu will try | 23:53 |
| ar | ok thx gho | 23:53 |
| eseven73 | joaopinto, (geeze took me 4 times to tab to your nick lol ) anyways, there's a app called iwatch that does it I believe, but it's beyond confusing, was hoping there was something easier maybe, Ill ask in #Bash then, thanks :) | 23:54 |
| m3dlg | is there a command that will allowme to run throughg the default settings for video while im in live disk to fix the installed video???? i've tryed everything i can now | 23:54 |

| ar | !info update-alternatives | 23:54 |
| ubottu | Package update-alternatives does not exist in jaunty | 23:54 |
| Amaranth | ar: That won't do what you want | 23:54 |
| evon | Amaranth: apparently i installed the wrong one and now my screen gets all weird then freezes. i tried xfix and it does not work. i tried deleting the driver but that did not work. i was hopin it would go to vesa mode. if i could just get the vesa to work i would just install working drivers. | 23:54 |
| helper | usser, like that ? * * * * * sudo uptime : echo > "uptime" /etc/motd | 23:54 |
| Amaranth | ar: You can't easily do what you want and doing it will probably break something else | 23:55 |
| Gho | ar: try 'man update-alternatives' | 23:55 |
| Shdow | hello all....noob here | 23:55 |
| Gho | ar: not in here, but at your terminal :) | 23:55 |
| Shdow | well sorta | 23:55 |
| ar | ok | 23:55 |
| ar | sorry :D | 23:55 |
| Gho | ar: no worries! | 23:55 |
| Amaranth | evon: boot in recovery mode, mv your /etc/X11/xorg.conf to your home dir, and reboot | 23:55 |
| Amaranth | evon: If it's an nvidia or fglrx driver that'll make it not use it | 23:55 |
| ar | have i to install update-alternatives or is it installed by default? | 23:55 |
| usser | eseven73, while [ 1 ] ; do if [ `ps -Al | grep app` == "" ] ; then `cat /dev/random > /dev/dsp` fi done | 23:56 |
| nymphonix | how would I auto mount something at start up, but after my wireless kicks in? I'm trying to automount to my hp mediavault via wlan. | 23:56 |
| Amaranth | ar: Installed by default but it doesn't do python | 23:56 |
| Gho | ar: it should be there by default | 23:56 |
| setuid | Where does one set keybindings in metacity/compiz? I want to set ctrl-alt-b for example, to launch a black xterm | 23:56 |
| Amaranth | setuid: System->Preferences->Keyboard Shortcuts | 23:56 |
| Amaranth | setuid: Oh, wait, for something like that you have to use gconf-editor or ccsm | 23:56 |
| pw-toxic | hi, i know this is the wrong channel for this, but i'm getting really frustrated: can anyone tell me, how i can reset the line numbering of lstlisting in latex? when i have several lstlisting with line numbering, the line numbering doesnt start by 1 but with the last line + 1 of the previous lstlisting | 23:56 |
| eseven73 | usser, how does that play a sound? | 23:56 |
| unop | usser, if ps -Al | grep app; then ... # will suffice without the need to compare output | 23:56 |
| setuid | Amaranth, cssm? | 23:56 |
| evon | Amaranth: if i move the xorg what will boot when I turn on the computer | 23:57 |
| AnnonyMouse1 | hi guys. anyone here use namp/nmapfe/zanmap? trying to make use of typography map, but not available here. any idea why? | 23:57 |
| setuid | Amaranth, nothing like that in any repo, by that name | 23:57 |
| Amaranth | evon: If you move the config file away it'll autodetect something | 23:57 |
| n_nm | hi all, i have some probleme with lamp | 23:57 |
| rww | !ccsm | setuid | 23:57 |
| ubottu | setuid: 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 | 23:57 |
| usser | unop, yea you're right | 23:57 |
| the1corrupted | Hey, anyone know how to get a ps/2 Synaptics/Alps touchpad working? I'm having difficulty. | 23:57 |
| Amaranth | evon: Most likely either nv, ati, or vesa depending on your card | 23:57 |
| Sebboh | now there's no meny.lst in /target/boot/grub .. ugh. | 23:57 |
| setuid | Amaranth, I've got Compiz enabled, but they steal almost every possible keyboard combination for a bunch of useless eye-candy | 23:58 |
| usser | eseven73, cat /dev/random > /dev/dsp that just plays whitenoise, but you can use whitenoise | 23:58 |
| AnnonyMouse1 | the1corrupted: there are some guides under the mactel section of ubuntuforums | 23:58 |
| evon | Amaranth: ok. I just moved the file. i'm rebooting now | 23:58 |
| usser | eseven73, question is when do you stop playing, cause cat /dev/random never returns control to the script and even if an app is restarted it'll keep playing | 23:58 |
| evon | Amaranth: it's still doing the same thing | 23:59 |
| n_nm | who use lamp here ? | 23:59 |
| joaopinto | !ask | n_nm | 23:59 |
| ubottu | n_nm: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line, so others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) | 23:59 |
| Amaranth | evon: hrm | 23:59 |
| Gho | n_nm: I illuminate my apartment with several lamps. Bit OT though. | 23:59 |
| evon | Amaranth: what sucks too is that the cdrom on my laptop broke so i can't even reinstall linux easily | 23:59 |
| Amaranth | evon: what driver did you install and how? | 23:59 |
| setuid | I see this still isn't fixed, 5 years later: "perl: warning: Setting locale failed" | 23:59 |
