| n_nm | Amaranth : yes | 00:02 |
| Gho | n_nm: did you instll PHP separately from apache? (i. e. in a separate install action)? | 00:02 |
| Amaranth | n_nm: i dunno, you must have manually modified the apache config or something | 00:02 |
| unop | setuid, regenerate your locales and that goes away | 00:02 |

| jrib | helper: pastebin | 00:07 |
| n_nm | evon : what command ? | 00:07 |
| Eevee | helper: er, that will copy the contents of the file called 'uptime' | 00:07 |
| the1corrupted | AnnonyMouse1: Well, I have found various things online, including altering my xorg.conf, and have come to rather distrust most of what I see due to the fact the xorg.conf alteration crashed my ubuntu. | 00:07 |
| evon | Amaranth: google is not helping much | 00:07 |
| Gho | helper: try just 'uptime > kadserver' | 00:07 |
| Amaranth | evon: yeah, it won't | 00:07 |
| Amaranth | evon: this machine has internet access? | 00:08 |
| evon | Amaranth: yes it does | 00:08 |

| sobczyk | hi, how to check which driver is ubuntu using for my radeon card? | 00:08 |
| Amaranth | evon: you could pastebin your Xorg.0.log | 00:08 |
| helper | Eevee, i did an script in it #!/bin/bash then uptime then i want to copy the uptime to kadserver so i did cat ./uptime > kadserver was mine right ? because it copy all text uptime to kadserver | 00:08 |
| Gho | h00k: do you have samba server installed? | 00:08 |
| exco | on my installed ubuntu standby isn't working (laptop) but with a live cd it is - can I reinstall the affected parts (packages)? | 00:08 |
| h00k | Gho: yes and I've restarted since I've installed it, also. | 00:09 |
| ubuntu_ | hello, can anybody tell me how to mount winxp C/D drives under 'Try Ubuntu w/o installation' mode? | 00:09 |
| Amaranth | evon: there is some command line tool for pastebin | 00:09 |
| evon | n_nm: sorry when I saw the word even in what you were saying to someone else i thought it was my name and that you were talking to me | 00:09 |
| h00k | Gho: it prompted me as soon as I checked "Share this folder" | 00:09 |
| Gho | h00k: is the client a Windows or Linux machine? | 00:09 |
| h00k | Gho: linux | 00:09 |
| evon | Amaranth: ok i will try that now | 00:09 |
| n_nm | evon : no probleme | 00:09 |
| h00k | Gho: I tried to connect to my own machine, also | 00:09 |
| Amaranth | evon: I'd find the tool but my internet seems to have decided new connections will just hang so I can't google | 00:10 |
| Amaranth | either that or lists.ubuntu.com went down | 00:10 |
| Gho | h00k: my first question then would be, why not use NFS? :) That said.. sudo smbmount 0.0.0.0:/share /path/to/mountmount What output do you get from that? | 00:10 |
| chuck_ | sobczyk, it's in your Xorg.0.log file | 00:10 |
| lakotajames | Gho: Thanks | 00:10 |
| AlsaPCM | hi ppl i am trying to run a game in windows it open but the image is the same as my background image ( i am running ubuntu 9.04 and windows is installed on virtualbox) | 00:10 |
| AlsaPCM | any suggestions? | 00:11 |
| Amaranth | evon: looks like it's called pastebinit | 00:11 |
| Amaranth | !info pastebinit | 00:11 |
| ubottu | pastebinit (source: pastebinit): command-line pastebin client. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.11.2-0ubuntu1 (jaunty), package size 21 kB, installed size 344 kB | 00:11 |
| evon | Amaranth: i can do this in recovery mode with networking? i should install this command with apt? | 00:11 |
| subatomickiller4 | hello | 00:11 |
| Amaranth | evon: yeah, install that package and use pastebinit to pastebin your Xorg.0.log | 00:11 |
| h00k | Gho: smbmount: command not found | 00:12 |
| helper | what's wrong with this ! #!/bin/bash then cd /home/kad/Desktop then sudo uptime > kadserver ? | 00:12 |
| evon | Amaranth: ok installing it now | 00:12 |
| ubuntu_ | sorry, once again: can anybody tell me how to mount WinXP C/D drives under 'Try Ubuntu w/o installation' mode? I am newbie, sorry | 00:12 |
| th0r | helper why use sudo? uptime will work for a normal user | 00:13 |
| helper | th0r, ok i remove it | 00:13 |
| Amaranth | !ntfs | ubuntu_ | 00:13 |
| ubottu | ubuntu_: To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions - For write access, see !NTFS-3g or !FUSE | 00:13 |
| Gho | helper: how about #!/bin/bash uptime > ~kad/Desktop/kadserver ? | 00:13 |
| h00k | Gho: recent 9.04 install (as of a few hours ago),up to date, etc. | 00:13 |
| Eevee | helper: what is that supposed to do? | 00:13 |
| th0r | helper, and instead of changing directories, just 'uptime > /home/kad/Desktop/kadserver | 00:13 |
| ubuntu_ | thanks a lot! | 00:14 |
| cmdbbq | i found this guide on how to enable automatic login: http://tinyurl.com/qc3ndj but it doesn't prompt for a password; i am looking for a way to have ubuntu assume it is me that wants to login but to prompt for my password; the desired behavior would be similar to what i am presented with when i resume from suspend; any ideas? | 00:14 |
| Gho | h00k: Sorry, it's been a long time since I've used Samba; I use NFS for most of my shares now :) | 00:14 |
| bobbob1016 | For some reason my firefox started acting up. It doesn't do the auto-complete thing it used to, I lost my bookmarks, and when I open a new tab it copies over the address from the last tab, any ideas what this can be? | 00:14 |
| helper | thx :* | 00:14 |
| h00k | Gho: I'll look into NFS, thanks | 00:14 |
| th0r | helper, if you put that one command line in as a cron job it will automatically update at whatever interval you specify | 00:14 |
| Gho | h00k: IMO it's a lot better for linux-to-linux sharing. If you need it secure, look also into sshfs | 00:14 |
| helper | th0r, if i want to add this time to /etc/motd i use echo > or what? | 00:15 |
| m3dlg | I don't know why but my video is screwing me up - the computer crashes as soon as it starts to load the desktop | 00:15 |
| th0r | helper, if you want to add it to the end of /etc/motd then use 'uptime >> /etc/motd' | 00:15 |
| helper | ah double >> | 00:15 |
| helper | okie :D | 00:15 |
| th0r | helper, the two '>>' will append to the file instead of replacing it | 00:15 |
| evon | Amaranth: ok 2 things. when i type pastebinit or pastebin it tells me commmand not found. I also found a file called xorg.conf.failsafe. if i change the name of the aforementioned file to exclude the failsafe part, would it help?3 | 00:16 |
| nowth | When I burn a Linux ISO with K3b and the verification fails, but a DVD image ripped from the failed (?) burned DVD has the same md5sum as the original ISO file... did it work after all, or not? | 00:16 |
| Gho | helper: careful, that'll add to the end, every time, so after a while, the motd will be endless streams of uptime output | 00:16 |
| helper | thx :* | 00:16 |
| Amaranth | evon: Only if X managed to automatically start after failing with your current config | 00:16 |
| Amaranth | evon: That's what the failsafe one is | 00:16 |
| Amaranth | evon: also, you have to install pastebinit | 00:16 |
| joaopinto | nowth, if the md5sum of the cloned iso matches, it's ok | 00:16 |
| Amaranth | evon: sudo apt-get install pastebinit | 00:16 |
| th0r | Gho, good point | 00:16 |
| Gho | helper: you want the system uptime to be displayed whenever a user logs in, yes? | 00:17 |
| nowth | joao, thanks... just wish the verification wouldn't fail then | 00:17 |
| evon | Amaranth: i did that and it installed. should i try it again?3 | 00:17 |
| helper | Gho, i want the uptime to be posted in /etc/motd | 00:17 |
| Amaranth | evon: no, just run pastebinit /var/log/Xorg.0.log | 00:17 |
| Gho | helper: is that ALL you want in the MOTD? | 00:17 |
| U-b-u-n-t-u | Gho I figured it out | 00:17 |
| helper | Gho, i want with the MOTD to paste the uptime of the server | 00:18 |
| U-b-u-n-t-u | Gho was a bad cable =_= | 00:18 |
| Gho | helper: yes, but do you want anythong other than the output of uptime in the MOTD? | 00:18 |
| Gho | U-b-u-n-t-u: that'd do it ;) | 00:18 |
| helper | Gho, nah | 00:18 |
| U-b-u-n-t-u | =) working now! | 00:18 |
| helper | th0r, btw the uptime >> /etc/motd didn't work | 00:18 |
| helper | ah | 00:18 |
| helper | wait it work now :) | 00:18 |
| evon | Amaranth: http://pastebin.com/f41c8526a | 00:18 |
| th0r | helper, right....once we moved to /etc you need sudo | 00:18 |
| helper | now i'll crontab | 00:19 |
| Gho | helper: in that case, a cron job that does a 'uptime > /etc/motd' would do the trick. That's sort of deer-hunting with a cruise missile though | 00:19 |
| * ror likes fortune in the MOTD | 00:19 | |
| Gho | ror: I prefer it in my .profile and/or .bashrc | 00:20 |
| byte^ | Can I receive some assistance on configuring my Sound Blaster card for Ubuntu? | 00:20 |
| Gho | !ask | byte^ | 00:20 |
| ubottu | byte^: 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. :-) | 00:20 |
| byte^ | Certainly. | 00:21 |
| Amaranth | evon: that looks like it started with vesa | 00:21 |
| Amaranth | evon: bad though, it couldn't load ati or radeon | 00:21 |
| ben__ | Why does my popup notifications give the following error: Error while displaying notification: The name org.freedesktop.Notifications was not provided by any .service files | 00:21 |

| Amaranth | evon: sudo apt-get --reinstall install xserver-xorg-video-radeon | 00:21 |
| Amaranth | evon: run those and restart X | 00:21 |
| helper | Gho, aha ya also it will add another text with old time new time , not replace time | 00:22 |
| byte^ | I have a Creative Sound Blaster Audigy SE card that is either not being read by Ubuntu or is not configured therein. I was wondering if there was some tool that would allow me to work with either the ALSA or OSS (I forget which Ubuntu employs) to configure this. | 00:22 |
| Gho | helper: if you use > and not >>, the MOTD should have only the output of uptime in it as recently as the last iteration of your cron job | 00:23 |
| evon | Amaranth: when you say reinstall x do you mean reboot or type startx? | 00:24 |
| byte^ | I am unfamiliar with the procedure on configuring audio, but many people in the forums purport to be able to simply "plug and play" with my sound card. | 00:24 |
| Amaranth | evon: sudo invoke-rc.d gdm restart | 00:24 |
| Gho | byte^: sadly (sort of), I'm one of those- my SB Audigy card 'just works', so I can't offer too much help :( | 00:25 |
| joaopinto | byte^, have you checked the level on alsamixer ? | 00:25 |
| byte^ | Yes, I am certain that it has nothing to do with the configured sound levels. | 00:25 |
| Gho | Amaranth: is there a reason not to just 'sudo /etc/init.d/foo restart'? I'm lazy, so.. :) | 00:26 |
| incorrect | has anyone else had strange issues with their laptops touchpad having weird problems, like the left mouse button stopping working until you reboot, or you can't alt tab, ? | 00:26 |
| Amaranth | Gho: I'm lazy and with my way tab completion does most of the work :) | 00:26 |
| n1ea | Where is a normal sound card found in the /dev folder? I tried /dev/dsp without success. | 00:26 |
| Amaranth | Gho: sudo inv<tab> gdm r<tab> | 00:26 |
| Amaranth | Gho: Well, you have to type a little more | 00:27 |
| steven_ | Does Ubuntu 9.04 know how to take advantage of quad-core technology? | 00:27 |
| Amaranth | Gho: But it's sort of the preferred way, even though it does the same thing | 00:27 |
| Amaranth | steven_: yep | 00:27 |
| evon | Amaranth: bad news | 00:27 |
| Amaranth | steven_: the system will see all 4 cores and schedule things for them | 00:27 |
| evon | Amaranth: same thing happened | 00:27 |
| Amaranth | evon: pastebin the new Xorg.0.log | 00:27 |
| steven_ | Alright. Thank you | 00:27 |
| Amaranth | evon: Everytime I give you something to do and it fails pastebin the new log :) | 00:28 |
| byte^ | Thanks for the help. | 00:28 |
| Gho | Amaranth: Back in my day, we didn't havy any of thsese newfangled invoke-rc.d contraptions, and had to get our hands dirty in /etc.. that's just how I grew up :) Glad I'm not going to break anything by not using invoke-rc.d :) | 00:28 |

| JoshJ | rastafaryan, it depends on your current partitioning setup | 00:50 |
| thiebaude | !backup | 00:50 |
| ubottu | There are many ways to back your system up.

| JoshJ | oh | 00:58 |
| Keal | frubuntu you can't boot off a usb storage device on an athlon64xp | 00:58 |
| JoshJ | you mean when you press the reboot button, not when it boots back up? | 00:58 |
| Roasted | joshj - I installed 9.04 on about 6 different computers and mine at home is the only one who does this. | 00:58 |

| Keal | athlon64xp's stop power supply via usb 2.0 ports as soon as the kernel loads until the kernel says to resupply power | 00:59 |
| JoshJ | Roasted, since linux in general has no way of knowing if it's being used from multiple terminals etc | 00:59 |
| JoshJ | Patrique, you want gcc and g++ | 00:59 |
| Keal | this is a glitch in virtually every boot loader and kernel | 00:59 |
| Roasted | joshj - still, its a pain in the azz | 00:59 |
| Patrique | joshj it's some programs? | 00:59 |
| JoshJ | Roasted, yeah, that's understandable | 00:59 |
| JoshJ | Patrique, are you used to visual studio or something? | 00:59 |
| Keal | kernels are supposed to load enough to tell the usb 2.0 ports to continue supplying power immediately before continuing to loaed | 00:59 |
| JoshJ | Roasted, where have you coded C++ before? | 01:00 |
| Patrique | joshj i'm used to builder | 01:00 |
| Keal | i have never seen a kernel that does this properly though | 01:00 |
| JoshJ | Patrique, load up the ubuntu add/remove programs thing, select programming, and do a search for C++ | 01:00 |
| Keal | i don't think the athlon64xp is even capable of this frubuntu | 01:00 |
| Patrique | ok thx | 01:00 |

| erUSUL | !info anjuta | Patrique | 01:01 |
| ubottu | Patrique: anjuta (source: anjuta): A GNOME development IDE, for C/C++. In component universe, is optional. Version 2:2.26.0.0-0ubuntu1 (jaunty), package size 2009 kB, installed size 5196 kB | 01:01 |

| AlsaPCM | is it possible to run 3d graphics using win7 as guest in virtualbox ? | 01:01 |
| JoshJ | Patrique, emacs/vim and the command line is the "traditional" way to develop on linux :P | 01:01 |
| dtchen | spikes: you probably want to drop to single-user (sudo telinit 1) first, then mount -omode=1777 -n -t tmpfs tmpfs /tmp | 01:01 |
| Patrique | Joshj lol ok i don't really need an interface but what would be really nice would be a tutorial on how to compile | 01:01 |

| [esde] | how do i set default size for new windows "unmaximized". i am on Ubuntu Netbook Remix and all the windows open as maximizes and it pisses me off. | 01:02 |
| Keal | frubuntu there are several factors working against you with athlon64xp's frubuntu | 01:02 |
| Patrique | like some hello world tutorial | 01:02 |
| JoshJ | Patrique, just "sudo aptitude install build-essential" then | 01:02 |
| erUSUL | Patrique: there are other ides like eclipse + ddt or kdevelop for kde... vdkbuilder | 01:02 |
| JoshJ | to get the compiler | 01:02 |
| dtchen | Ljorring: please use: wget -O ~/Desktop/alsa-info.sh http://www.alsa-project.org/alsa-info.sh && bash ~/Desktop/alsa-info.sh --no-upload, then pastebin the generated /tmp/alsa-info.txt | 01:02 |
| Keal | frubuntu one major issue is the athlon64xp actually has drivers for the cpu itself | 01:02 |
| Patrique | ok | 01:02 |
| JoshJ | Patrique, generally speaking you would use a Makefile on a big application | 01:02 |
| Patrique | ok | 01:02 |
| JoshJ | Patrique, though something like gcc hello.c -o hello && ./hello is the typical command line for C... for C++ it's a bit different, just do "g++ --help" | 01:03 |
| Ljorring | dtchen: http://pastebin.com/m4f121645 | 01:03 |
| Roasted | joshj - I just added a 2nd user to this work alptop with 9.04. No rpoblem here. Just on my desktop. | 01:03 |
| JoshJ | Patrique, hm... g++ --help indicates that the syntax is the same... "g++ hello.cpp -o hello && ./hello" should work | 01:04 |
| Patrique | ok thx a lot:) | 01:04 |

| JoshJ | that turns on hidden files | 01:19 |
| JoshJ | they're in places like .pidgin , .thunderbird, .mozilla, etc | 01:19 |
| jigp | ok ok JoshJ | 01:19 |
| dtchen | Ljorring: try this: sudo /sbin/alsa force-unload && sudo rm -f /var/lib/alsa/asound.state && sudo modprobe snd-hda-intel | 01:20 |
| JoshJ | jigp, hidden files (aka "dotfiles") are commonly used for preferences and similar things for the sake of making browsing sane | 01:20 |
| JoshJ | otherwise your home folder would be terribly cluttered otherwise | 01:20 |
| Ljorring | dtchen: on it | 01:20 |

| CooPs89 | here's some generic info: http://pastebin.com/d54a3feb4 | 01:42 |

| CooPs89 | it's a netgear card but I think it's a Atheros chipset... | 01:43 |

| CaT_MaNZz | vaul: ty but this is not what im searching for | 01:47 |
| IndyGunFreak | burntresistor: well, ask them.. | 01:48 |
| vaul | CaT_MaNZz: Ohh, how curious. And what you are searching for? Not for a way to restore MBR or GRUB? | 01:48 |
| IndyGunFreak | burntresistor: i don't seem to have that issue w/ Pidgin (i have like 5 msn contacts) | 01:48 |
| CaT_MaNZz | i had a ubuntu grub, but i had installed another system on my laptop and that system only can see windows (not ubuntu) | 01:48 |
| burntresistor | if i am blocked they wouldnt get a message so isnt it mute to ask them and it did happen | 01:49 |
| syntax\ | how can i open .doc files as ease as if i open it on word? | 01:49 |
| EdgEy | doesnt mean blocked could just be deleted | 01:49 |
| vaul | CaT_MaNZz: And this system is windows? | 01:49 |
| burntresistor | yeah i usually use pidgin | 01:49 |

| CaT_MaNZz | vaul the sistem which f*cked up my grub is OS x | 01:50 |
| CaT_MaNZz | :) | 01:50 |
| evon | Ronnyh: i've restarted samba on both computers but when i click on network all i see is "Windows Network" | 01:51 |
| CaT_MaNZz | but now .. the boot manager of osx sees only windows partition | 01:51 |
| Ronnyh | evon, and you cant open it? | 01:51 |
| IndyGunFreak | CaT_MaNZz: i dont think grub can see OSX.. but i'm not sure.. you could try using the Ubuntu live CD to reinstall grub. | 01:51 |
| evon | Ronnyh: nope can't open it | 01:51 |
| vaul | CaT_MaNZz: You was so afraid to say that? I think you just need to replace OS X loader by GRUB. As far as I know GRUB is capable of loading probably any system/ | 01:52 |
| CooPs89 | The connection information says my "ath5k_pci" driver has "2 Mb/s" and the speed is horribly slow, even though it's a 54 Mbit capable card and router, it worked outside ubuntu, help me please... | 01:52 |

| RAdams | Shortcuts using my Super ("Windows") key are no longer working. The system allows they key to be used as a shortcut, but if it's as if something is trapping it. Any ideas? | 02:02 |
| RAdams | Dante123: what unop said. you don't seem to have that package. | 02:02 |
| Wavesonics | I JUST DELETED A VERY IMPORTAINT FODLER ON MY SERVER!!!! How do i recover it!!!!! | 02:03 |
| unop | Dante123, this definitely says a 64bit package is available - http://tinyurl.com/pdlpvd | 02:03 |

| ubottu | Some tools to recover lost data are listed and explained at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DataRecovery - Recovering deleted files on !ext3 filesystems can be virtually impossible, although methods that might work is some cases are described at at http://www.xs4all.nl/~carlo17/howto/undelete_ext3.html and http://projects.izzysoft.de/trac/ext3undel | 02:03 |

| vahnx | anyone know how to unmount a drive from the desktop that was manually mounted by command line, just by right clicking and unmounting? | 02:06 |
| atrius | vahnx: did you mount it as root? | 02:06 |
| vahnx | yeah from command line | 02:06 |
| atrius | vahnx: or using sudo | 02:06 |
| smoking | RAdams: is there a workaround at the moment? | 02:06 |
| unop | vahnx, manually dismount it at the command line .. | 02:06 |
| vahnx | either way | 02:06 |
| atrius | vahnx: then if you're not logged into X as root.. then no | 02:06 |
| RAdams | smoking: try downgrading to flash 9, but no promises | 02:07 |
| vahnx | yeah i know, but there should be a way to like gksudo when u right click unmount | 02:07 |
| atrius | vahnx: logically that makes sense.. i imagine simply no ones added that | 02:07 |
| CooPs89 | firefox can't connect when i used ipconfig wlan1 down to test my connected wlan0 interface... | 02:07 |
| mmcji | unop: great, thanks | 02:07 |
| vahnx | ah i see. well thanks. =D | 02:07 |
| unop | vahnx, well, you could have mounted the volume using the GUI - in which case you wouldn't need a superuser to intervene | 02:08 |
| smoking | anyone tried to use flash 9 in 9.04 and had a performence gain ? | 02:08 |
| CooPs89 | how do I make firefox use the wlan0 interface? | 02:08 |
| vahnx | it was an unclean shutdown so i had to manually mount it with a force | 02:08 |
| atrius | so... any Mac people around at the moment? i'm needing the output of a particular command from a Leopard machine | 02:08 |
| toor_ | what is the command in terminal for installing packages? | 02:08 |
| vahnx | apt-get | 02:08 |
| unop | toor_, apt-get install package | 02:08 |
| toor_ | thx | 02:08 |
| RAdams | aptitude install or apt-get install | 02:08 |

| Cloacker | "using namespace std;" | 02:10 |
| Cloacker | without the " | 02:10 |
| dtchen | Cloacker: also, which preprocessor includes are used? | 02:10 |
| RAdams | Shortcuts using my Super ("Windows") key are no longer working. The system allows they key to be used as a shortcut, but if it's as if something is trapping it. Any ideas? | 02:10 |

| Dante123 | i'm having lots of freezing up under newly installed 9.04 64 bit version....anyone else having this trouble? Making me want to go back to 32 bit unless this is due to some other problem. Was just in pidgin and then opening synaptic and everything freezes. CTRL ALT Backspace did nothing even though I installed dontzap and then ran a command to renable it. | 02:11 |
| dtchen | Cloacker: you're missing <cstring> | 02:11 |
| atrius | unop: for some reason.. them having a channel on here didn't occur to me.. ;) | 02:11 |
| carick | is there a ``command'' in vim to comment a line (or multiple lines) | 02:11 |
| Dante123 | Anyone else experience freezing with 9.04 or with 64 bit version of Ubuntu? | 02:11 |
| vaul | RAdams: Look through layout changing options with attention. | 02:11 |
| CooPs89 | okay I have isolated the PCI card | 02:11 |
| CooPs89 | testing with a 54 mbit usb dongle | 02:12 |
| CooPs89 | with the pci card down | 02:12 |
| Cloacker | ok, i added cstring now, but now i get: 29: error: ISO C++ forbids variable length array 'textfile' | 02:12 |
| CooPs89 | and connection works just find | 02:12 |
| CooPs89 | fine | 02:12 |
| RAdams | vaul: keyboard layout options? | 02:12 |
| vaul | RAdams: Some action possible could be binded to the super key. | 02:12 |
| vaul | RAdams: Yes, exactly. | 02:12 |
| dtchen | Cloacker: please note that newer versions of g++ are much more strict regarding preprocessor directives and prototypes | 02:12 |
| unop | carick, depends on the language you are coding or what that language defines as a comment .. usually something like s/^/#/ does | 02:13 |
| Dante123 | btw, with my earlier problem with missing libqt3-mt....I do have it installed. COuld this be a 32 bit versus 64 bit thing? | 02:13 |
| Cloacker | dtchen: was has changed from 4.2.3 to 4.3.3? | 02:14 |
| syntax\ | http://pastebin.com/d3a11330d -- ubuntu failed to boot normally, could any one help me out? i copied what is said before it launched ash shell.. | 02:14 |
| RAdams | vaul: interesting. changing lock desktop from ctrl alt L to super L completely ruined use of the super key. Thanks for the pointing, it's fine now! | 02:14 |
| carick | unop: i know it depends on the language, and i also know vim can determine that because one of the fold options is to put {{{ in a comment at the beginning of the fold and }}} at the end of it | 02:14 |
| ravager | hello | 02:15 |

| ravager | i had the same problem beg2h8ubuntu | 02:20 |

| D3RGPS31 | kitche: i mount it was rw, but it stays as ro | 02:30 |
| pik} | haha probably | 02:30 |
| jaypur | pik}, just accept original copies | 02:30 |
| Dr_Willis | jaypur: check the md5sum of the compies? how did you copy them? ive seen some old machines not like cd+r but did on with cd-r (and visa versa) | 02:30 |

| jaypur | Dr_Disk, my laptop didn't accept a cd-rw and a cd-r, but accept the original one from canonical... | 02:31 |
| Dr_Willis | ashbringer: you could make .bashrc or .bash_profile mount the encrypted thing I guess. | 02:31 |
| syntax\ | vaul: im not comfy with the initramfs terminal | 02:31 |
| pik} | jaypur: hm, weird. have you checked the md5sum as Dr_Willis suggested? | 02:31 |
| vaul | syntax\: Right idea, it would be easier this way. | 02:31 |
| pik} | on the iso file | 02:32 |
| ashbringer | th0r: encfs is user-space, so it's way inferior to ecryptfs | 02:32 |
| ashbringer | Dr_Willis: then I'd have to have my password in cleartext. | 02:32 |
| vaul | syntax\: I thought you're already using livdCD. Weechat? | 02:32 |

| ithink | hi | 02:34 |
| puff | By the way, in case anybody else is curious, the trick to using emacs (or really any use of the EDITOR or VISUAL env variable) with visudo is to set EDITOR in the actual sudo command, so the env variable is set on the process that sudo starts. | 02:34 |
| beg2h8ubuntu | ? | 02:34 |
| puff | E.g. $ sudo EDITOR=emacs visudo | 02:34 |

| pik} | jaypur: yeah.. maybe it is some kind of burning settings that your laptop doesent support | 02:38 |
| kaddi_ | jeruvy thanks anyways | 02:38 |
| frustrateduser_ | vaul: i'm running tha tcommand now, how do i switch betwen desktops? is it an option @ boottime? | 02:38 |
| eseven73 | mikechelen, yea I know, I never had probs with it before | 02:38 |
| syntax\ | vaul: what is it sir | 02:38 |
| steven_ | How do I fix the GRUB menu? I installed Win 7 over my Win Vista partition, but now GRUB doesn't start. I know that my ubuntu partition is still there. | 02:38 |
| jaypur | pik}, yeah, that could be a problem, but i've created a start up usb, and it didnt work.... | 02:38 |
| Selva | no one has anything for me??? | 02:39 |
| Jeruvy | kaddi_: don't thank me for sane advice... :) | 02:39 |
| syntax\ | vaul: i already have terminal access | 02:39 |
| jaypur | pik}, but what you said is not so wrong... | 02:39 |
| ithink | can someone please help me configure my lamp server ? | 02:39 |
| Jeruvy | !ask | ithink | 02:39 |
| ubottu | ithink: 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. :-) | 02:39 |
| beg2h8ubuntu | dont feel bad I feel the same way | 02:39 |
| syntax\ | guess not. | 02:39 |
| pik} | jaypur: try burning with k3b and use standard settings | 02:39 |
| syntax\ | can i enable ssh on livecd? | 02:39 |
| mikechelen | eseven73, what error is showing? does this happen with all .wav files | 02:39 |
| pik} | you also got md5-check there | 02:39 |
| eseven73 | yea | 02:39 |
| vaul | syntax\: OK. ALT+CTRL+FX, if you're about to switch virtual consoles, seventh is the X server. | 02:39 |
| Sebboh | jaypur, pik}, I haven't been paying attention, but if your laptop has an OS and you can burn a CD *in* that drive, do that. Most drives can read CDs that they burned themselves! :) | 02:39 |
| ithink | how can i configure mysql server to accept connections from the network ? | 02:39 |
| Jeruvy | eseven73: you sure it's not a disk (storage) issue? | 02:39 |
| RxDx | doesnt linux skype support webcam yet? | 02:40 |
| Sebboh | syntax\, sure, sudo apt-get install ssh | 02:40 |
| Jeruvy | ithink: ask in #mysql about 'bind-address' | 02:40 |
| syntax\ | vaul: hold on a sec | 02:40 |
| eseven73 | mikechelen, "Audacity had to make a guess at the type of file the Audio may be bogus" tells me to rename the file but Its a good name | 02:40 |
| jaypur | pik}, Sebboh, nice, it reads the cd but it doest go further.... | 02:40 |
| ithink | ty | 02:40 |
| pik} | Sebboh: yes your right | 02:40 |
| kaddi_ | jeruvy there are quite a lot widely used linux-based registry editors out there. Have been for a lot of years as well. I'm just to stupid to get them from a bootable-iso onto my system, which is why I'm looking for something that doesn't need to be extracted | 02:40 |
| vaul | syntax\: Why can't you just replace you get crazed grub with unetbootin? | 02:40 |
| eseven73 | Jeruvy, 25 gigs left, not a storage issue that I know of | 02:40 |
| mikechelen | eseven73, does it still work okay with that warning? | 02:40 |
| eseven73 | no | 02:41 |
| pik} | jaypur: can you burn a new cd from the laptop in ubuntu? | 02:41 |
| pik} | using k3b | 02:41 |
| jaypur | pik}, yeah i can do that | 02:41 |
| beg2h8ubuntu | Anyone else know about sound config? | 02:41 |
| Jeruvy | kaddi_: I wouldn't use a windows app to adjust gnome or xorg stuff, I wouldn't ask ubuntu about windows registry editors...its a fools game IMHO | 02:41 |
| jaypur | pik}, i'll just wait the upgrade to 9.04 | 02:41 |
| eseven73 | mikechelen, I think the output sound settings need configuring in audacity, one sec | 02:41 |
| mikechelen | eseven73, filename should not matter, does it happen with all .wav? file might be corrupt | 02:41 |
| Sebboh | jaypur, pik}, hm, also, if you're getting a read error when using the CD.. Have you checked for bad ram? There's a memory test feature built into the liveCD, from the main boot menu. | 02:41 |
| jaypur | pik}, the boot from usb didnt work.... | 02:41 |
| syntax\ | vaul: what do you mean | 02:42 |
| mikechelen | eseven73, audio device config is often the cause | 02:42 |
| Selva | as with my question, i just got a new message box pop up, "DBus error org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.NoReply: Message did not receive a reply (timeout by message bus)" errrr????? | 02:42 |
| jaypur | Sebboh, no, it just keep _ bliking... | 02:42 |
| eseven73 | no file not courrup they play in other players | 02:42 |
| jaypur | Sebboh, the installer of ubuntu doesnt go on when i boot in | 02:42 |

| Sebboh | jaypur, I see, gotcha. | 02:42 |
| Jeruvy | beg2h8ubuntu: have you looked atthe great sound thread on ubuntuforums.org? | 02:42 |
| quiksilver | can anyone help me identify what kind of dvds my dvd burner is compatible with? | 02:42 |
| beg2h8ubuntu | yes I have and I still cant get it working | 02:42 |
| quiksilver | i keep inserting a blank dvd and it doesnt recognize it | 02:42 |
| jaypur | Sebboh, its like, it accepts "original" cd, and not copies, got it? | 02:42 |
| beg2h8ubuntu | thats why I am here | 02:42 |
| kaddi_ | jeruvy imho there is not much difference between an ubuntu application handling the windwos registry and ubuntu reading and writing on ntfs. but still, I get your point :) | 02:43 |
| jaypur | pik}, but i'll burn one... and see what happens | 02:43 |
| Cloacker | Now my code compiles again. Thanks for all. | 02:43 |
| pik} | jaypur: yeah do that | 02:43 |
| eseven73 | mikechelen, yea it was just not configred :D | 02:43 |
| eseven73 | configured* | 02:43 |
| Sebboh | jaypur, yes, I've seen that happen on older CDROM drives (and old floppy drives). | 02:43 |
| mrwes | quiksilver, DVD-R or DVD+R | 02:43 |
| FunPhantom | jaypur does the installer load? and then the options start reading the cd and then stop and do nothing? | 02:43 |
| Jeruvy | beg2h8ubuntu: ok, the alsa pointer is a very good one, thought I'd ask. | 02:43 |
| pik} | maybe it will work if your lucky :) | 02:43 |
| jaypur | Sebboh, just a _ blinking? | 02:43 |
| mpontillo | Selva: there is a thread here with a suggestion to debug the problem: http://forum.ntfs-3g.org/viewtopic.php?p=2595&sid=c298826acf8a60d238b4b51f7aef582d -- looks like running a "checkdisk" from Windows fixed the problem. can you pastebin the output of: egrep -i 'dma|sd|ntfs' /var/log/daemon.log* | 02:43 |
| quiksilver | DVD-R | 02:43 |
| quiksilver | mrwes: i cant understand why it doesnt recognize anything in the drive | 02:43 |
| jaypur | FunPhantom, when it had vista yes, but now that i have only linux, it boots and go _ blinking... | 02:44 |
| pdfedit | How can I annotate PDF files under Linux? | 02:44 |
| Jeruvy | kaddi_: ubuntu doesn't know a dword from a binary.. | 02:44 |
| vaul | syntax\: I mean this: http://launchpad.net/unetbootin . It could be used to restore MBR's. I personally think it is the fastest way. | 02:44 |
| Sebboh | jaypur, no, I mean read errors.. it has to do with misaligned parts inside the cd drive.. | 02:44 |
| mrwes | quiksilver, yah...my HP Pavillion can only read DVD-R, and write to DVD+R | 02:44 |
| Sebboh | jaypur, and failure to boot could be a read error that happens very early on. *shrug* | 02:44 |
| vaul | syntax\: Boot to live cd, install this and reboot to drive. | 02:44 |
| FunPhantom | [jaypur]: hmmm i have this problems with a winxp installed :( | 02:44 |
| Sebboh | Gotta run, see you all. | 02:44 |
| jaypur | Sebboh, hm... like, boot and then *shrug* | 02:44 |
| quiksilver | mrwes: this doesnt even read the dvd-r | 02:44 |
| mrwes | quiksilver, common for older drives -- is this an older computer? | 02:44 |
| vaul | syntax\: You should be promted to fix MBR. | 02:45 |
| Selva | mpontillo: errrrr??? in windows language??? still havn't quite figured the ins let alone the outs of ubuntu yet | 02:45 |
| quiksilver | mrwes: yeah its from like 03 - 04 | 02:45 |
| My_nick_name_is_ | good night for all | 02:45 |
| vaul | syntax\: It helped me personally, when offtopic system erased my MBR. | 02:45 |
| mrwes | quiksilver, after it tries to read the drive, check dmesg | tail from the terminal and see if there are any error messages | 02:45 |
| vaul | syntax\: I think it could be useful to you too. | 02:45 |
| mikechelen | eseven73, yay, good to hear :) | 02:45 |
| mpontillo | Selva: I don't have a Windows system running at this moment, but I believe if you right-click the drive and choose something like "properties" there is a "tools" menu with an option to check the drive for errors. I'd do that, and then see if you can see the drive from Linux again | 02:46 |
| vaul | syntax\: What about it? | 02:46 |
| === My_nick_name_is_ is now known as Biscoito | ||
| gtupa | anyone know alsa really well | 02:46 |
| beg2h8ubuntu | haha no :( | 02:46 |
| syntax\ | vaul: how do i install that sir? | 02:46 |
| mikechelen | pdfedit, check out pdfedit and jarnal | 02:47 |
| quiksilver | mrwes: there doesnt appear to me, it just sucks because i need to burn some software on dvd and no burning software recognizes anything in the drive | 02:47 |
| Selva | oh yeah i understood that part, that's no problem... just gotta install windows :(... but the rest of what you said can you pastebin the output of: egrep -i 'dma|sd|ntfs' /var/log/daemon.log* im guessing is "like" a windows memory dump? but ummm, yeah, very new to linux | 02:47 |
| mrwes | quiksilver, did you burn DVD-R in Windows at some point with this computer? | 02:48 |
| Slasher` | well now 2 pints has finished again, thats it, nothing decent on tv anymore | 02:48 |
| quiksilver | mrwes: windows had the same issue | 02:48 |
| Slasher` | oops, wrong channel, ignore that, sorry peeps | 02:48 |
| quiksilver | mrwes: however, on the drive it explicitly says DVD-R | 02:48 |
| quiksilver | mrwes: could it be the brand of cd? its sony 16x | 02:48 |
| pik} | jaypur: i was thinking. you got any other OS that you burned by yourself? | 02:48 |
| mpontillo | Selva: oh, check the topic - there is a "pastebin" you can use to avoid cluttering the channel with log output. you just run that command (from a terminal window) and copy/paste the output. or run "sudo aptitude install pastebinit" and then run: egrep -i 'dma|sd|ntfs' /var/log/daemon.log* | pastebinit | 02:48 |

| jaypur | pik}, because in my older computer all copies work, and they were recorded at it... so... makes really sense what you told me.... | 02:52 |

| pik} | jaypur: yeah that's what bother me. if that wouldent happend, i'll be sure on that the problem came from burning failure | 02:56 |

| puff | I want to set up a cron job to archive shows off my tivo onto my ubuntu box so I can free up space but watch the shows later. Anybody know about this? | 03:06 |

| Selva | http://pastebin.com/fcaad6a7 yay i figuered it out roflol :P jk... here is the pastebinit | 03:07 |
| H_M-Ubuntu | Says i'm not privileged... Still | 03:07 |
| swiftarrow | yowshi, you shouldn't need to reboot. There are commands to load kernel modules on the fly. Search for that. | 03:07 |
| pik} | H_M-Ubuntu: did you use the gui? | 03:07 |
| pdfedit | How can I annotate PDF files with sticky notes and highlighting under Linux? | 03:08 |
| H_M-Ubuntu | "DBus error org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.NoReply: Did not receive a reply. Possible causes include: the remote application did not send a reply, the message bus security policy blocked the reply, the reply timeout expired, or the network connection was broken." | 03:08 |
| H_M-Ubuntu | Yet, the drive works fine in Windows. | 03:08 |
| yowshi | swiftarrow: they dont work. grrr when a programme using the webcam crashes i have to reboot no kill -9 no modprobe -r nothing will free up tyhat webcam except a reboot | 03:08 |
| devFox | is the ubuntu-9.04-server-amd64.iso the correct image for 64bit intel as well? I didn't see any other options. | 03:08 |
| pik} | H_M-Ubuntu: its a permission problem. did you use the gui with ntfs-config? | 03:09 |
| Slasher` | devFox; yes, for any 64 bit system | 03:09 |

| Slasher` | devFox; no problem :) | 03:10 |
| H_M-Ubuntu | pik}, Well i'm assuming that while Windows was accessing the drive, it didn't close the session. Which means the NTFS session is still open, and Linux doesn't automatically reopen a session like Windows does. | 03:10 |

| binskipy2u | anyone know why VLC just stopped working, wont even open, when it did after first install of ubuntu 9.04, ive tried completely removing, rebooting, reinstalling, and it wont open at all | 03:10 |

| H_M-Ubuntu | Hey i'll be back. | 03:11 |

| jun-sheep | Curious -- I have dual-monitors. Would it be possible for me to run Gnome (gdm) on screen#0 and KDE (kdm) on screen#1 without having Gnome/KDE applications merging through on the menu? To say.... to have the applications in their respectible fields | 03:12 |
| swiftarrow | binksipy, problems with jaunty? I'm wondering if I should upgrade, given all that I've heard. | 03:12 |
| mikechelen | binskipy2u, try running vlc from command line, so you can see any errors | 03:12 |
| yowshi | swiftarrow: i have to reboot for the 15th freaking time today so those are hollow words | 03:13 |
| swiftarrow | yowshi I did tell you that you dont have to reboot to load kernel modules | 03:13 |
| binskipy2u | entire screen filled up | 03:13 |
| yowshi | swiftarrow: not load kernel modules but UNLOAD them | 03:13 |
| yowshi | swiftarrow: the modules loaded and stuck loaded and cheese is holdiong it hostage | 03:13 |
| swiftarrow | yowshi, you can unload them too, afaik. BUt I dont know the command. | 03:13 |
| Ademan | does anyone know how to download CBS' tv shows from their website? This isn't about piracy I swear, it's just flashplayer sucks horribly, and it skips at the "normal" size, and is totally unwatchable at fullscreen, and I'm sure given the chance Mplayer would handle a flv just fine | 03:14 |
| yowshi | swiftarrow: modprobve -r it doesnt work though because it says the things in use | 03:14 |
| yowshi | swiftarrow: i cant make it not in use though because cheese is keeping it used | 03:14 |
| swiftarrow | yowshi, try killing the cheese process? | 03:14 |
| yowshi | swiftarrow: and cheese wont die to a kill -9 | 03:14 |

| H_M-XP | -.- | 03:15 |
| swiftarrow | yowshi, perhaps use a different application, besides cheese? | 03:15 |
| pik} | jaypur: alright..tell me about the result :) | 03:15 |
| yowshi | swiftarrow: the only one which seems to have any prmise is vlc but noone here or anywhere else seems to know how to get that to work | 03:15 |
| jun-sheep | yowshi: Try "killall cheese" | 03:16 |
| yowshi | jun-sheep: been there done that | 03:16 |
| Ademan | there's a command line webcam "viewer" that would let you test out your webcam (if that's indeed what's going on) | 03:16 |
| swiftarrow | yowshi, try sudoing? | 03:16 |
| Dr_Willis | Time to try a diffrent webcam? | 03:16 |
| Ademan | the name escapes me at the moment, but i'm sure you could find it in 5 seconds in synaptic | 03:16 |
| * Dr_Willis goes to eat some cheese. You jusrt made me hungry. | 03:16 | |
| yowshi | swiftarrow: i have to do it via sudobecause i have to run cheese via sudo to get the webcam to work with it | 03:16 |
| jaypur | pik}, i dont know why but that drum at the start up goes looping... lol | 03:16 |
| mpontillo | Selva: hmm, unfortunately I can't tell much from that. it's reporting that it mounted fine. can you run this command next: (mount ; echo ; df ; echo ; grep sdb1 /var/log/*) | pastebinit | 03:16 |

| pik} | k3b? | 03:17 |
| jaypur | pik}, damn its not stopping | 03:17 |
| swiftarrow | yowshi, I suggest you use a different webcam app, something that doesn't require sudoing to start. | 03:17 |
| swiftarrow | but I have had no luck with my webcam: didn't work out of the box, so I left it. | 03:17 |
| yowshi | jun-sheep: exactly how do i use xkill? | 03:18 |
| jun-sheep | yowshi: Did you ever try it? | 03:18 |
| yowshi | jun-sheep: what do i do with xkill? | 03:18 |

| yowshi | jun-sheep: i already manually closed the cheese window so now only the process remains | 03:19 |
| jaypur | pik}, installing k3b | 03:19 |

| yowshi | jun-sheep: only with programmes accessing the webcam | 03:22 |
| darkhelmet | thanks. Well, if anyone is. I've got a raid5 array with 2 drives marked as failed. However, one of them isn't actually failed. I need to re-mark the drive as if it were good and try to get my data back. | 03:22 |

| arvind_khadri | yowshi, it would create a file fastboot, grub generally looks for 2 files before fsck forcefsck and fastboot, fastboot would make it skip the fsck | 03:47 |

| arvind_khadri | yowshi, the file gets automatically deleted after the boot, so if again you want to skip, you would have to redo that command | 03:48 |

| Jack_Sparrow | Cirno09 It isnt part of the ubuntu repos.. so no this is nto the right place to ask | 03:49 |
| eseven73 | Cirno09, if even half of those 1300+ people were actually here, it would be a miracle, most of them are idle and id' say a good amount of them have like 2 or three clones in here | 03:49 |

| cgkades | nJustin3k: you need to have a swap partition | 03:56 |
| Jack_Sparrow | nJustin3k yes, but it would take some fiddling with /etc/fstab | 03:56 |
| nJustin3k | im being told that 1) i dont and 2) if there is one anywhere on HD then it will find it, but that didnt sound right to me | 03:56 |
| Jack_Sparrow | cgkades HE can run without one long enough to create the new regular partition and the new swap | 03:56 |
| cgkades | Jack_Sparrow: yeah, i have major ADD toniight, i just need to stop responding before i finish reading the whole sentace | 03:58 |
| eseven73 | speaking of swap how do I clear it? Im using like 17% swap | 03:58 |

| kazagistar | lstarnes: thanks | 04:36 |
| bullgard4 | ltgg: Yes. I managed to get rid of this message by removing all logs that Tracker has made in its own directory, log in anew starting Tracker as the only application program and letting it do its work for hours until it stops and not touching this computer at that time otherwise. | 04:36 |

| hardddisk_ | Thank you in advance | 04:44 |
| swiftarrow | hardddisk_, try #perl and ask for a regex? | 04:44 |
| hardddisk_ | swiftarrow I do not know perl but I try with sed let me show you what I did | 04:45 |
| bill2 | hello everyone, i really could use some help | 04:45 |
| hardddisk_ | sed 's/<a href=[^"]>Services by Nme<\/a>/<a href="list.shtml?p=services">Services by Name<\/a>/g' /myfile/path | 04:45 |
| hardddisk_ | swiftarrow did not work can you see why Is not | 04:46 |
| swiftarrow | hardddisk_, i know nothing of perl or sed or regex. I got help with some stuff from #perl, they really know their regex. | 04:46 |
| swiftarrow | sry i cant help. | 04:46 |
| lstarnes | hardddisk_: you have Nme instead of Name in one spot | 04:46 |
| bill2 | i went onto some website and it told me i had many viruses and said to download free remover so i did but ubuntu wont open any ideas? | 04:46 |
| AustinS | bill2: lol | 04:47 |
| xPhilosx | are there any good alternatives to the mozilla-mplayer plugin for viewing windows media player related files online? Mplayer has a serious memory leak. | 04:47 |
| lstarnes | bill2: just ignore it. that sounds like some malware site | 04:47 |
| * RHorse | 04:47 | |
| AustinS | xPhilosx: I dealt with this last night. I ended up with mozilla-vlc package | 04:47 |
| wes_ | bill2, it's a scam | 04:47 |
| lstarnes | bill2: linux has no real viruses | 04:47 |
| xPhilosx | AustinS, thanks, ill check it out | 04:47 |
| hardddisk_ | lstarnes I have no idea where did you see that mistake because I do not see it | 04:47 |
| swiftarrow | bill2: your using ubuntu, dont worry abt viruses | 04:47 |
| hardddisk_ | swiftarrow thank you for your help | 04:47 |
| lstarnes | hardddisk_: I see it in the command you posted here | 04:47 |
| RHorse | lstarnes, except for script kiddies | 04:47 |
| hardddisk_ | I guess I'll try with perl guys soon | 04:48 |
| swiftarrow | hardddisk_, I ddnt do anything! :D | 04:48 |
| lstarnes | RHorse: note the "real" | 04:48 |
| bill2 | what? the website said i have viruses and i asked my friend he works in a computer place and he says that i should use their program | 04:48 |
| RHorse | :) | 04:48 |
| AustinS | i mean, be conscious of virus and other types of malware. I would say "oh your using ubuntu, dont ever worry about malware or viruses" | 04:48 |
| lstarnes | bill2: you are using ubuntu, right? | 04:48 |
| bill2 | yes latest version | 04:48 |
| hardddisk_ | lstarnes : where ? <a href="oldLink bunch of things generated by encryption">Service by Name</a> need to be replaced with <a href="newlink">Service by Name</a>. | 04:48 |
| lstarnes | bill2: then that site and your friend are wrong | 04:48 |
| lstarnes | hardddisk_: sed 's/<a href=[^"]>Services by Nme<\/a>/<a href="list.shtml?p=services">Services by Name<\/a>/g' /myfile/path | 04:49 |
| J-_ | !virus | 04:49 |
| ubottu | A/V software is available, however read this to understand why Linux does not have a virus problem: http://librenix.com/?inode=21 | 04:49 |
| bill2 | how is my friend wrong? he went to university for a lot of years and he has a doctorate degree in computer engineering | 04:49 |
| lstarnes | bill2: they know about windows only | 04:49 |
| hardddisk_ | lstarnes thank you but that was just a typo but thanks for pointing that out | 04:49 |
| swiftarrow | bill2: a website can't really find out if you have a virus unless it gets into your system. So the website's lying. | 04:49 |
| Sebboh | bill2, well the installation didn't work, so I guess you'll just have to suffer. Anyway, if you want an antivirus there is one available. Search the package lists for antivirus. | 04:49 |
| Sebboh | Anyway, bill2's probably a troll. | 04:50 |
| mabus | bill2: tons of websites lie in ord... | 04:50 |
| lstarnes | hardddisk_: it looks like it should work | 04:50 |
| mabus | yeah Sebboh ... | 04:50 |
| bill2 | i'm not a troll seriously guys my friend said i should come here if i had questions | 04:50 |
| ModusTalons | Greetings and salutations. How do I turn off journaling on my filesystem? | 04:50 |
| Sebboh | Bill2, here's a little feedback.. If you're trying to act dumb, don't spell doctorate correctly. :P | 04:50 |
| lstarnes | ModusTalons: why do you need to disable joirnaling? | 04:50 |
| nikeboy | anyone up-on UNR jaunty? i've managed to remove the notification area in unr-mode, works fine in classic mode though... ? | 04:51 |
| lstarnes | *journaling | 04:51 |
| ModusTalons | Because I have an SSD on my netbook | 04:51 |
| bill2 | i'm not dumb, that's insulting, i just don't know a lot about computers | 04:51 |
| gartral | hello... im having problems getting a camera that lsusb reports as a 0c45:602c Microdia Clas Ohlson TWC-30XOP WebCam google is of very little help | 04:51 |
| ModusTalons | I am unuder the impression that turning off journaling will extend the life of my SSD | 04:51 |
| wes_ | bill2, go back to the site and see how many viruses you have on dive C | 04:51 |
| Sebboh | bill2, well we do, so quit arguing. :) Ignore the website. | 04:51 |
| ReVoLveR | how to fix a broken package? | 04:51 |
| ReVoLveR | can anyone help me | 04:51 |
| lstarnes | ReVoLveR: it depends on why it is broken | 04:51 |
| bill2 | so i just ignore it? | 04:52 |
| ReVoLveR | lstarnes : how to know that? | 04:52 |
| J-_ | !virus | bill2 | 04:52 |
| ubottu | bill2: A/V software is available, however read this to understand why Linux does not have a virus problem: http://librenix.com/?inode=21 | 04:52 |

| hardddisk_ | lstarnes this is the link :<a href="../../../access.aims.ku.edu/shibboleth/login?cacheid=E21CA2CD9EF84B3D235CBA56B3D1544D&return=163636563737E21696D637E2B657E2564657F23786962626F6C6564786D2964607F23535F4F33786962756D3864747073752331452236452236477264737471607E23636E2B657E25646575223645273543616C6C6C69637475223643586962626F6C6564786E23737F65223643514D4C452236405F43545624796D656D31323432303037313133362471627765647D336F6F6B69656620727F667964656279446 | 04:52 |

| hardddisk_ | how can I replace all that with actual local link that I have created ? | 04:52 |
| Jeruvy | !pastebin | | 04:52 |
| ubottu | : 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) | 04:52 |
| bill2 | okay so i will remove that file that doesnt work then | 04:52 |
| hardddisk_ | sorry Jeruvy | 04:52 |
| lstarnes | ModusTalons: it might not extend it by much, and the joirnaling would decrease the likelyhood of the filesystem being damaged beyond repait | 04:52 |
| lstarnes | *repair | 04:53 |
| lstarnes | hardddisk_: does it only need to be replaced in one line? | 04:53 |
| Sebboh | hardddisk_, when you download web pages, if you use the right software, there is a feature that will automatically translate links to the local version. wget has this feature, for example. | 04:53 |
| TrozPSU | anyone familiar with grub triple boots with two versions of windows and skipping the windows bootloader ? | 04:53 |
| ReVoLveR | lstarnes : how to check how the package is broken? | 04:53 |
| nathan__ | ok i got a little bit of a problem here.. i just recently installed xubuntu 9.04 on an imac.... all went well and everything was good untill i installed the updates.. now the task bars that are usually on the top and bottom have disapeared...i know there is a permanant fix for this but i cant remember how can someone help.?? | 04:53 |
| lstarnes | ReVoLveR: pastebin the error messages you get when using it | 04:54 |
| nikeboy | anyone tell me how to put the notification area back into UNR mode in jaunty??? (battery, wireless, bluetooth etc) .. works fine in classic/desktop mode..? | 04:54 |
| hardddisk_ | lstarnes no there are several link that need to be replaced | 04:54 |
| sparr | fornix: I am not using pulseaudio, and have had this issue for years | 04:54 |
| hardddisk_ | but if someone helps me in one I can figure it out the others | 04:54 |
| omacPlace2 | ocropus page simple.png I get this error. FATAL: invalid magic number | 04:54 |
| lstarnes | hardddisk_: what is the new link? | 04:54 |
| ModusTalons | Revolver: I believe you fix a broken package by issueing the following command: sudo dpkg-reconfigure -a | 04:54 |
| omacPlace2 | Any ocropus experts here? | 04:54 |
| Sebboh | hi, sparr. | 04:54 |
| hardddisk_ | Sebboh I did use it but did not work correctly | 04:54 |
| ReVoLveR | ModusTalons : ok thanks. | 04:55 |
| lstarnes | ReVoLveR: try sudo dpkg --configure -a instead | 04:55 |
| sparr | Sebboh: long time no see | 04:55 |
| ReVoLveR | ok | 04:55 |
| ModusTalons | Ah yes, I believe Istarnes is correct | 04:55 |
| fireicer | revolver: when i need to serch and fix broken packages i just boot up in recovery mode and select it from the list ubuntu gives you when you get to it | 04:55 |
| Sebboh | hardddisk_, well, sed can handle this. If you don't know how to use it, there are also various text editors with search/replace features. | 04:56 |
| ReVoLveR | dpkg: status database area is locked by another process | 04:56 |
| ReVoLveR | this is the msg I get | 04:56 |
| lstarnes | ReVoLveR: close any package managers or update managers you have open first | 04:56 |
| ModusTalons | interesting... perhaps try: lsof|grep dpkg | 04:56 |
| Sebboh | hardddisk_, you also have the option to redownload with the correct options, to get it right in the first place. | 04:56 |
| ReVoLveR | dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of easycam2-gtk: | 04:57 |
| ReVoLveR | easycam2-gtk depends on cheese; however: | 04:57 |
| ReVoLveR | Package cheese is not installed. | 04:57 |
| ReVoLveR | easycam2-gtk depends on easycam2-core; however: | 04:57 |

| hardddisk_ | Sebboh: I need to do it in command line I have a *.sh file that does also ather stuff. and I need to integrate this script on it | 04:57 |
| lstarnes | ReVoLveR: then you need to install cheese and easycam2-core first | 04:57 |
| ReVoLveR | ok | 04:57 |
| ReVoLveR | let me check | 04:57 |
| nikeboy | no-one able to tell me how to reset unr mode so i have the notification area back ? :S | 04:57 |
| hardddisk_ | Sebboh I need a way to replace that I do not need other option. Thank you, I know what you mean but those option do not work for me | 04:57 |
| penguins2387 | hurray i am back | 04:57 |
| ReVoLveR | lstarnes : can you give me a command to do that? | 04:58 |
| lstarnes | ReVoLveR: what command are you using to install easycam2-gtk? | 04:58 |
| penguins2387 | will apt work? | 04:58 |
| ReVoLveR | sudo apt-get install easycam2-gtk ? | 04:58 |
| penguins2387 | or do you need to add some repos? | 04:58 |
| penguins2387 | cause i could use easycam | 04:59 |

| sparr | I am having a problem in X. Some games set my resolution to an invalid one for my monitor, my only solution is to ctrl+alt+f1 and terminate the game from a console. but for some of those games, the display doesn't go back after the game is killed. then I try "DISPLAY=:0 xrandr -s N" (for any N>0) and X crashes. help? | 04:59 |
| lstarnes | ReVoLveR: if you are using that command, it should install required packages if they are in the repositories. do you have the universe repository enabled? | 04:59 |
| penguins2387 | sparr: i had that problem once trying to run epsxe | 05:00 |
| ReVoLveR | lstarnes : sorry I donno what universe repository means :$ | 05:00 |
| hardddisk_ | Thank you Sebboh I'll look at it | 05:00 |
| ModusTalons | if you do: sudo cat /etc/apt/sources.list | 05:00 |
| penguins2387 | open synaptic and click prefrences and enable universe | 05:00 |
| ModusTalons | Yea..naptic is easier... lol | 05:00 |
| ModusTalons | synaptic* | 05:00 |
| penguins2387 | sparr: what desktop environment are you useing? | 05:01 |
| Guest92469 | While booting 9.04 I get a graphical screen with a progress bar and no details. If I switch from it using ctrl-alt-f1, I can't find a key combo that gets me BACK to the graphical screen. What is it? | 05:01 |
| ModusTalons | Anyone in here using an EeePC with the etheros wifi chipset and Ubuntu 9.04? For some reason I can't scan for networks with iwlist scan | 05:01 |
| lstarnes | ReVoLveR: go to System > Administration > Software Sources and check the box next to "Community-maintained Open Source software (universe)" | 05:02 |
| ModusTalons | I can set the essid and connect just fine with dhclient, its just kind of annoying that I can't actually search for networks | 05:02 |
| IndyGunFreak | ModusTalons: that device should work out fo the box. | 05:02 |
| IndyGunFreak | ModusTalons: can you actually connect to your wireless network? | 05:03 |
| ModusTalons | it works with the gnome network-manager but iwlist scan isn't supported out of the box | 05:03 |
| IndyGunFreak | oh ok.. | 05:03 |
| ModusTalons | Yea, I can connect fine to a wireless network if I know the essid beforehand | 05:03 |
| ModusTalons | but if I type in: sudo iwlist scan it doesn't show up under the wlan0 interface | 05:03 |
| IndyGunFreak | ModusTalons: i dunno, i just click nm-applet, and it shows the 4-5 networks available to me | 05:03 |
| Shadow121 | I am trying to remove a package and get: E: mythtv-backend: subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 1 | 05:04 |
| dys | Hi | 05:04 |
| z0x1c | ModusTalons re SSD journaling, I recommend reading the opinions/benchmarks of Ted Ts'o, ext4 maintainer. http://thunk.org/tytso/blog/2009/03/01/ssds-journaling-and-noatimerelatime/ | 05:04 |
| ModusTalons | I would do that myself... but I'm not running gnome on my netbook. I installed ubuntu as command line and installed xfce4 and gdm | 05:04 |
| dys | Hi | 05:04 |
| ModusTalons | I actually removed the network-manager package | 05:04 |
| penguins2387 | ah | 05:04 |
| evon_ | i have an ATI XPRESS 200m card in my laptop. are there any drivers for it in jaunty? | 05:04 |
| dys | hello | 05:04 |
| IndyGunFreak | ModusTalons: well, install it, or use wicd | 05:05 |
| ModusTalons | wicd? Never heard of that | 05:05 |
| IndyGunFreak | i don't know why iwlist scan wouldn't work though | 05:05 |
| Guest92469 | evon_, I believe so. My desktop has the same (I think), and compiz works great on it. | 05:05 |
| penguins2387 | if you installed gdm you should be able to install and use nm-applet | 05:05 |
| jaypur | my sound its not working good, it keeps doing a eco and cutting pieces... what should i do? | 05:05 |
| IndyGunFreak | ModusTalons: its an nm-applet alternative (and a better one in my opinion)... google it | 05:05 |
| [t0rc] | I'm getting a index corrupted error box over and over from the tracker; any solutions? | 05:05 |
| ModusTalons | Ok, I will do. Thanks for the tip. :-D | 05:05 |
| evon_ | Guest92469: compiz is fine but my 3d games run like crap now. they were running fine in 8.04 | 05:06 |
| Demerzel_ | hello folks | 05:06 |
| penguins2387 | IndyGunFreak: for some reason nm-applet will only connect correctly without a restart about 60 percent of time... you think wicd will fix that for me? | 05:06 |
| Guest92469 | evon_, actually what I have is "ATI Radeon XPRESS 200 5974 (PCIE)". Don't know about 3D games -- are there 3D games for Linux?! | 05:07 |
| evon_ | Guest92469: ya a lot of 3d games | 05:07 |
| penguins2387 | oh my yes google for it you'll find some great ones | 05:07 |
| IndyGunFreak | penguins2387: honestl, i don't know, iv'e not ever had a problem w/ nm-applet, i just like wicd, because you can look at a networks security protocol, before trying to connect to it. | 05:07 |
| ScottG | If someone has physical access to ubuntu it seems like they can just boot recovery from grub and get root | 05:07 |
| Guest92469 | Maybe the 3d acceleration in X isn't installed unless you apt-get it? | 05:07 |
| Guest92469 | ScottG: shh! | 05:08 |
| Demerzel_ | i've got what appears to be a misconfigured initrd after upgrading from 8.10 to 9.04. It keeps trying to mount an NFS root instead of a local root. Is there any way to override this on the grub level so it will try to use a local root? | 05:08 |
| jaypur | my sound is not working good, its goind like an eco and is runnig into part by part.... | 05:08 |
| evon_ | Guest92469: if it was not installed compiz would not work | 05:08 |
| penguins2387 | IndyGunFreak: thanks i'll give it a try, i only have a problem when trying to connect to 2wire routers i think it may be that atheros wireless cards just don't like them | 05:08 |
| usser_ | ScottG, theres no point in putting obstacles at this point, if u have a physical access to a machine then you can pretty much do anything. | 05:08 |
| Shadow121 | WHat does this mean in the terminal: 1 not fully installed or removed. | 05:08 |
| Demerzel_ | once booted into initrd an inspection of /conf/initramfs.conf reveals BOOT=nfs ... which is where my problem might be | 05:08 |
| IndyGunFreak | ScottG: easy thing to do w/ that, is comment out the recovery option in grub.. if you ever need it, boot the live CD, open the menu.lst on the drive, uncomment it, and restart... you'll have recovery mode again | 05:09 |
| lstarnes | Shadow121: check what happens before that | 05:09 |
| iliketofrolic666 | when I delete a file on my NTFS, it copies it to the trash on my main HDD, how do I stop this? | 05:09 |
| xPhilosx | is there any way to clear the list of packages that autoremove thinks it should remove? | 05:09 |
| ModusTalons | Shadow121: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade && sudo apt-get autoremove && sudo apt-get autoclean && sudo apt-get clean | 05:09 |
| IndyGunFreak | ScottG: don't delete it, just remove it from the list, then if you need it, its very simple to add back, rather than typing all that crap | 05:09 |
| Guest92469 | xPhilosx, try "apt-get install"ing them. They're already installed, but maybe it'll mark them as manually installed. | 05:10 |
| xPhilosx | Guest40357, its a list of roughly 40 packages | 05:10 |
| ModusTalons | my friend was talking for me, I dont know this much stuff | 05:10 |
| ModusTalons | I want to reduce anomie by letting people know who I really am | 05:10 |

| Shadow121 | ModusTalons: I dont want a distro upgrade tho | 05:12 |
| Guest92469 | xPhilosx, try it on one and see if it works. | 05:12 |
| xPhilosx | Guest92469, sure | 05:12 |
| jaypur | penguins2387, autodetect... but none of those options solved my problem | 05:13 |
| Demerzel | anyone? :) | 05:13 |
| lucax | i have an intel centrino duo, im wondering how whould battery life time last longer, if i disable one core and decreasing the frequency or just leaving it on demand both cores? | 05:14 |
| Guest92469 | evon_, have you tried turning off compiz and seeing if the games work better after that? | 05:14 |
| Paul_ | what is the microsoft chanel? | 05:14 |
| evon_ | Guest92469: yup | 05:14 |
| Guest92469 | Demerzel, from grub you can hit "e" to edit | 05:14 |
| lstarnes | Paul_: probably ##windows | 05:14 |
| c0_ponti | a | 05:14 |
| Guest92469 | Demerzel, and then change the kernel command line to specify "root=hda" for example | 05:14 |
| penguins2387 | or just one # | 05:14 |
| ScottG | Paul_: #windows | 05:14 |
| Demerzel | Guest92469: yeah i've done that to add "break=top" to the kernel line | 05:14 |
| Paul_ | yeah thanks | 05:14 |
| Shadow121 | I am getting this in the terminal......1 not fully installed or removed. | 05:15 |

| === ley is now known as kiosk | ||
| Demerzel | root=UUID=<the appropriate uuid for the partition i want it to boot from> | 05:15 |
| jaypur | penguins2387, any idea? | 05:15 |
| Guest92469 | Demerzel, if you know what partition that actually is, try specifying it (root=hda3) | 05:15 |
| Guest92469 | Demerzel, skip the UUID stuff for this test. | 05:16 |
| Demerzel | right | 05:16 |
| penguins2387 | jaypur: sorry about that. one moment i'll see what i can come up with | 05:16 |
| Demerzel | done that ... but i've tried so many things now it's all a blur | 05:16 |
| Demerzel | let me try that now | 05:16 |
| jaypur | penguins2387, ok | 05:16 |
| lsadfl | !bash | 05:16 |
| ubottu | The linux terminal or command-line interface is very powerful. Open a terminal via Applications -> Accessories -> Terminal (Gnome) or K-menu -> System -> Konsole (KDE). Guide: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UsingTheTerminal | 05:16 |
| === c0_ponti is now known as Aslo | ||
| ModusTalons | Shadow121 In synaptic go to repositories and then updates and make sure that under release upgrades never is selected | 05:17 |
| ModusTalons | Shadow121 then issue the command I gave you previously and it won't do a full distribution upgrade | 05:17 |
| Guest92469 | Demerzel, if merely specifying the root doesn't work, you may also have to delete the initramfs spec on the kernel command line. | 05:17 |
| penguins2387 | jaypur: sorry man not coming up with anything have you tried ubuntu forums? | 05:17 |
| Demerzel | Guest92469: | 05:17 |
| cyd_away | is stock nvidia driver going well for most people in 9.04? | 05:18 |
| Demerzel | Guest92469: as in remove that line from grub? | 05:18 |
| Aslo | ui | 05:18 |
| jaypur | penguins2387, no, but i will | 05:18 |
| Demerzel | because specifying the root parameter didn't work | 05:18 |
| ltgg | 9.04 problem: upgrade manager failed ... tries to do a partial upgrade ( 73 packages now ) and just quits. How to fix?? thanks ( newbie ) | 05:18 |
| jaypur | penguins2387, i need to know the sound card... i'll get somethin like everest right now | 05:18 |
| Guest92469 | Demerzel, I think so, but now you're getting beyond where I have explored. Some distros need their ramfs, others don't. | 05:19 |
| ModusTalons | enough | 05:19 |
| penguins2387 | jaypur: try lspci in terminal | 05:19 |
| cyd_away | ltgg: does 'sudo apt-get install -f' get you any farther? | 05:19 |
| Demerzel | yeah i just removed the initrd line | 05:19 |
| ModusTalons | i'm leaving | 05:19 |
| ModusTalons | adious | 05:19 |
| Demerzel | and it panicked | 05:19 |
| Guest92469 | Demerzel, panic'd because it couldn't find the root? | 05:19 |
| Demerzel | altho that might have something to do with the fact that i kept the uuid | 05:19 |
| Demerzel | yeah | 05:20 |
| Demerzel | i'll try specifying the partition | 05:20 |
| Demerzel | i still don't know why this uuid crap was introduced | 05:20 |
| Guest92469 | Demerzel, ok, give it a try. If the driver for the root disk is a module in the initrd, tho, you'll need it... | 05:20 |
| penguins2387 | jaypur: should say something like ***** audio controller: ************ | 05:20 |
| Demerzel | yeah | 05:20 |
| Guest92469 | Demerzel, the uuid crap is because disk drives get different names when you plug in I/O cards (or sometimes just USB drives). | 05:20 |
| Demerzel | jfs | 05:20 |
| lstarnes | Demerzel: it might be in case the drives are detected differently after changing things around, like /dev/sda bevoming /dev/sdb after installing a new hard disk | 05:21 |
| penguins2387 | jaypur : * = your information | 05:21 |
| Demerzel | yeah i remember the whole fiasco between RHEL4U4 and RHEL4U5 | 05:21 |
| Demerzel | kernel team decided to change the way devices were numbered | 05:21 |
| jaypur | penguins2387, im getting the info about the cards... and ill tell ya | 05:21 |
| Demerzel | this was for NICs tho | 05:21 |
| Demerzel | and drove me up the wall | 05:22 |
| penguins2387 | jaypur ok | 05:22 |
| Guest92469 | Demerzel, if your filesystems are labeled, you can maybe specify root=LABEL=[its label] | 05:22 |
| Shadow121 | ModusTalons: I am getting a problem with the mythtv backend which i cannot remove for some reason. "E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)" | 05:22 |

| jaypur | penguins2387, it has an audio adapter... would it be that? | 05:22 |
| Demerzel | i'd written imaging software that used specific NICs and now i had to second-guess myself | 05:22 |

| frogscott | trying to use compiz in 9.0 anyone help? | 05:23 |
| cyd_away | ltgg: :( what does 'sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade' end up saying? | 05:23 |
| jaypur | penguins2387, its the only thing releated to sound... | 05:23 |
| Demerzel | Guest92469: however, when i look at the initrd before its contents are executed ... conf/initramfs.conf says BOOT=nfs | 05:23 |
| Demerzel | and i need it to say BOOT=local | 05:23 |
| Demerzel | i use sed to make the change within the initrd | 05:23 |
| Demerzel | but i don't know if that holds after i Ctrl-D out of it | 05:24 |
| Shadow121 | How can i remove the mythtv backend? I get this error when i try "E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)" | 05:24 |
| Guest92469 | Demerzel, yow, you made your root jfs? | 05:24 |
| Demerzel | and let the boot process continue | 05:24 |
| penguins2387 | jaypur: ok copy and paste that line here | 05:24 |
| jaypur | its on a laptop | 05:24 |
| Guest92469 | Demerzel, So when you make the sed change, it boots? But it doesn't keep it as a permanent change? | 05:24 |
| jaypur | penguins2387, its on my laptop... | 05:24 |
| slitaz | hi . i have a 32 bit ubuntu on a 64 bit processor..... if i reinstall 64bit ubuntu on the / overwriting 32 bit ub .... will 64 bit os of any extra special use ??????? i dont know about this.. so help me anyone plezzz | 05:24 |

| Demerzel | Guest92469: it still doesn't boot ... it keeps trying to mount NFS | 05:24 |
| jaypur | penguins2387, how can i get this kind of information? | 05:25 |
| jaypur | penguins2387, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HdaIntelSoundHowto | 05:25 |
| Guest92469 | Demerzel, Do you have a way to boot from somewhere else, e.g. a live CD or DVD? You can do that, and whack on the initram file from there. | 05:25 |
| jaypur | penguins2387, maybe i found the solution | 05:26 |
| penguins2387 | jaypur: open terminal type lspci and highlight the line(s) involved and right click and copy | 05:26 |
| penguins2387 | Jaypur: awesome | 05:26 |
| Demerzel | Guest92469: the BOOT flag seems to control which scripts in the /scripts directory get executed. Somehow during the time that /init processes the config file and actually starts executing perhaps the value of the BOOT variable changes? | 05:26 |
| Guest92469 | slitaz, keep it the way it is, unless you need to run lots of RAM in virtualized machines. | 05:26 |
| jaypur | penguins2387, i think it is that | 05:26 |
| Demerzel | it would be awesome if BOOT were driven somehow via a parameter on the grub level | 05:26 |
| jaypur | penguins2387, do you agree? | 05:26 |

| penguins2387 | ?????? | 05:28 |
| the1corrupted | Hello, everyone. I was hoping to get a rather serious crash issue resolved here. It seems that the GUI in my system spontaneously quits working. I have no clue what's wrong only that just before each crash, I open xorg.conf. (Even if it remains unaltered) Now as to the details of this crash, Linux (the core) starts up just fine. | 05:28 |

| xPhilosx | In retrospect, i suppose I could have written a script to make it easier, but it worked none-the-less | 05:29 |
| Guest92469 | slitaz, the software that comes in ubuntu is compiled for both 32-bit and 64-bit. There's occasional software built by other people that's only built for 32-bit, and if you're running 64-bit ubuntu it's a hassle to get it working. | 05:30 |
| M0rtimer | could anyone tell me.. is there any way to change my computer name to 3_1_jaan for closed network.. it wont allow me to use "_" | 05:30 |
| Guest92469 | slitaz, I've been running 32-bit Ubuntu on a 64-bit processor for years. No problems. If you have less than 4GB of RAM, just run the 32-bit and you'll be fine. | 05:31 |
| slitaz | Guest92469, ok.... thnx | 05:31 |

| the1corrupted | cyd_away: It crashes some time after it's already up and running. I think it may have something to do with the graphics card. Or the fact it's a 64-bit system. | 05:38 |

| J-_ | Shadow121: Looks like dpkg is broken. | 05:40 |
| Guest92469 | lyrae, hmm. From a terminal you may be able to do "apt-get dist-upgrade" to finish the upgrade? | 05:40 |
| Shadow121 | J-_ i cant seem to remove mythtv-backend. Its giving me all these problems. | 05:40 |

| cyd_away | the1corrupted: 9.04 yes? | 05:41 |
| the1corrupted | cyd_away Yeah. From what (all the exhaustive) diagnostics tell me is that there is nothing wrong with the Ubuntu installation... | 05:41 |
| MrKeuner | Circs, rm directory_name -rf | 05:41 |
| J-_ | Shadow121: Have you tried, "sudo dpkg --configure -a" | 05:42 |
| the1corrupted | cyd_away Now before each crash, there is one thing in common: I'm trying to get my blasted touchpad working. | 05:42 |
| cyd_away | the1corrupted: i can't be of more help, but i think it'd be good to start with graphics. maybe turn of restricted driver and see if you get same result? try running from livecd and see if that crashes. try turning off desktop effects before you try the other things. | 05:42 |
| Circs | MrKeuner: Is that safe? there's so much bad news about the rm command I'm scared to death of it | 05:42 |
| cyd_away | the1corrupted: oh, that's probly good info | 05:42 |
| Guest92469 | lyrae, it looks like X is configured fine, but the script that starts Gnome after X comes up is missing or broken | 05:42 |
| cyd_away | the1corrupted: so touchpad doesn't work out of the box? | 05:42 |
| MrKeuner | Circs, directory_name is important there make sure you do not delete a directory you need | 05:42 |
| Circs | MrKeuner: I have to run it with sudo because the directory's permissions are borked | 05:43 |

| cfedde | bullgard4: icons that use a large number of colors. | 06:09 |
| RichiV | what is an older kernel version of hardy heron | 06:09 |
| bullgard4 | cfedde: Why is it necessary to put icons having a large number of colors in a separate directory? I suspect that hicolor is a defined technical term whose meaning I do not know. | 06:12 |
| cfedde | bullgard4: these days it's probably more convention than need. | 06:12 |
| bullgard4 | hm | 06:12 |
| Demerzel | it's probably a matter of convenience | 06:13 |
| Demerzel | from a code point of view it makes sense to check your current color settings and set the icon root to a certain directory | 06:13 |
| cfedde | once upon a time there were color limits on some graphics cards. | 06:13 |
| Demerzel | thereby immediately making your code mostly agnostic to settings changes | 06:13 |
| Demerzel | cfedde: even these days when you boot into safe mode video cards are typically set to 256 colors | 06:14 |
| Demerzel | which is much more limited than truecolor (24 bit) that you normally get | 06:14 |
| cfedde | if the system is running wiht a low number of colors maybe the designer wants to select a set of icons that look better in low color or high color. | 06:14 |
| cfedde | Demerzel: sure. | 06:14 |
| Demerzel | hicolor is the term for either 15bit or 16bit color palettes | 06:14 |

| ubottu | #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics. Thanks! | 06:15 |

| jigp | Flannel : there is no upgrade in 8.04 to 8.10 here http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/upgrading | 06:35 |
| wes_ | insomnia_au, Daemon | 06:35 |
| Newbuntu2 | http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=3299935 | 06:35 |
| Newbuntu2 | Those two threads discuss the problem and solutions, but I'm not sure how to do the recompiling they talk about | 06:35 |
| mobi-sheep | slitaz: What? I'm telling you this because every packages have parameters that can be used. :) | 06:36 |
| slitaz | why isnt there a direct "powerdvd" like thing in synaptic ? | 06:36 |
| lstarnes | jigp: try https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes | 06:36 |
| mobi-sheep | slitaz: PowerDVD is for Windows. Linux is NOT Windows. There are no Microsoft Office in Ubuntu either. | 06:36 |
| jigp | ok thanks :) | 06:36 |
| slitaz | jigp, download the alternate iso.... mount it .. it wil popout upgrade window ;-) | 06:37 |
| Sebboh | Flannel, although I don't have any tolerance for malicious commands either, it seems that slitaz was asking for confirmation, like, "what, aren't you telling me to do something similar to this bad command?", not telling anyone to run that. | 06:37 |
| jigp | slitaz: the iso of 8.10? | 06:37 |
| slitaz | mobi-sheep, i knew that ...... powerdvd "like" thing = similar to powerdvd | 06:37 |
| jigp | slitaz: or 9.04? im using 8.04 current | 06:37 |
| J-_ | !dvd | slitaz | 06:38 |
| ubottu | slitaz: For multimedia issues, this page has useful information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats - See also https://help.ubuntu.com/9.04/musicvideophotos/C/video.html - But please use free formats if you can: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeFormats | 06:38 |
| slitaz | J-_, my question is DIFFERENT .... | 06:38 |
| mobi-sheep | slitaz: Use VLC. You only need to run the DVD. I'm sure you don't use half of the features that PowerDVD offer. It's all about simplicity too. ;) | 06:38 |
| zvacet | jigp: 8.10 i you want to upgrade | 06:38 |
| kton876 | How can I stop vlc form opening two windows | 06:38 |
| fbc-mx | If I ssh to a machine and would like to leave that session running and come back to it later, what to I have to do? If I just close the session the program won't stay running. | 06:38 |
| kton876 | ^ that question, but in bold and italics | 06:38 |
| jigp | zvacet: yup I want to upgrade 8.04 to 9.04? | 06:38 |
| slitaz | jigp, i think that you need to upgrade to 810 first... | 06:38 |
| lstarnes | fbc-mx: you could run ssh in screen | 06:39 |
| J-_ | slitaz: If you at least read the first URL, you would have came to: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/PlayingDVDs | 06:39 |
| fbc-mx | slitaz, I'm not too sure about that... | 06:39 |
| mobi-sheep | kton876: Look under Preferences. You want to toggle on "Run with one instance only" | 06:39 |
| Guest92469 | fbc-mx, run "screen" which will let you detach with ctl-A D rather than just logging out. | 06:39 |
| kton876 | Here is an ascii diagram: [ ] [ ] == bad, [ ] == good | 06:39 |
| Guest92469 | fbc-mx, then when you're back on that machine you can run "screen -r" to re-attach to it. | 06:39 |
| zvacet | jigp: but you can not skip versions so you havve to upgrade to 8.10 first and then from 8.10>9.04 | 06:39 |

| insomnia_au | Anyone vpnc stores it's log files, I'm having some trouble connecting to my works' Cisco VPN using Jaunty | 06:40 |
| kton876 | I know, crazy isn't it. It is like they thought, hey,we are only calling new window once, let's open two windows, one for the media, and one for the slider. | 06:40 |
| slitaz | jigp, but mounting the alternate iso is the easiest way ///// | 06:40 |
| kton876 | mobi-sheep: so - you know what I am talking about now? the fail of a winamp looking box that opens with the slider, and not stuck to the bottom of the video | 06:40 |
| mobi-sheep | kton876: Did it occur to you that maybe it's a bug? (Because it really is.) :) | 06:40 |
| zvacet | jigp: my advice is to use alternate CD in case something goes wrong you will always have CD for fresh install | 06:40 |
| h123 | anyone knows if the dwl-g132 usb dongle can be set in monitor mode? | 06:40 |

| h123 | or anyone that has worked with airmon-ng ? | 06:41 |
| insomnia_au | J-_: wow i didn't realise you can "locate log" | 06:41 |
| mobi-sheep | kton876: I can help you with that. I'm running VLC Alpha -- It's not supported in Ubuntu but it went well for me. | 06:41 |
| lstarnes | jumbers: the broken domain might not be configured properly | 06:41 |
| kton876 | mobi-sheep - it is a bug? whoah, how can it be a bug.. I mean - a bug would be not checking a param and allowing a null value - but having TWO window handles in one code execution path sounds more like someone shooting users from the top of a bell tower than a bug | 06:41 |
| kton876 | I will try the latest, thansk | 06:42 |
| mobi-sheep | kton876: It's embedded bug. :) | 06:42 |
| J-_ | insomnia_au: Did it work? | 06:42 |
| jumbers | lstarnes: It's using the same config file as the working one. Only differences are the server root, server name, and the server aliases | 06:42 |
| jigp | zvacet: how about install ubuntu 9.04 directly?good?from ubuntu 8.04 to ubuntu 9.04..i have cd 9.04 | 06:42 |
| kton876 | ok my curiosity has been satisfied | 06:42 |
| eleite_ | h123: try # aircrack-ng | 06:43 |
| jigp | zvacet: but the problem is, how to back up my chat pidgin logs?from 8.04 to 9.04? | 06:43 |
| zvacet | jigp : only if you want fresh install in that case it is good to have separate home partition | 06:43 |
| eleite_ | h123: there is also a list on their website that lists compatible wireless cards | 06:43 |
| mobi-sheep | jigp: If you want to back up everything related to Pidgin, All config files are saved under "~/<user>/" <-- Your home directory. You're looking for "~/<user>/.purple" | 06:44 |
| zvacet | jigp : if you don´t have separate home read http://www.ivankuznetsov.com/2008/04/moving-home-to-its-own-partition.html | 06:44 |
| insomnia_au | J-_: yep that worked, not much help though | 06:45 |
| Sebboh | mobi-sheep, you mean /home/<user>/.purple, or ~/.purple ... | 06:46 |
| jigp | zvacet: I don't have partition as of the moment when I install ubuntu 8.04..thats why when I instsall 9.04 it should have partition soon | 06:46 |
| jigp | mobi-sheep: ok ill look for it now | 06:46 |
| Sebboh | ~ = /home/<user> | 06:46 |
| mobi-sheep | Sebboh: Yup. :) | 06:46 |
| Sebboh | OR, a user's home directory might not be in /home ... ~ = the home dir as specified in the /etc/passwd file. | 06:46 |

| J-_ | insomnia_au: hmm. What about, "locate vnpc | grep log" Not sure if it'll return the same results. I'm still lacking the experience with locating/ grepping. Learning though! | 06:47 |

| raddy | Anybody saw my message? | 07:01 |
| kindofabuzz | kton876, apt-get install ubuntu-resticted-extas is all you have to do, java + more | 07:01 |
| kton876 | I have an 8.04 here, and I google and come up with apt-get install sun-java6-jdk - but this package doesn't exist | 07:01 |
| zvacet | jigp: with separate home,yes just don´t format home partition during install | 07:01 |
| kton876 | +more - hrm, I am on a 3G connection :-) | 07:01 |
| kton876 | kindofabuzz - which brings me to a point about 9.04 - what went wrong with the add/remove popularity ratings - it looks like they all broke | 07:02 |
| jigp | zvacet: this is like: I will create new home then I can install 9.04?and the files still there? (currenlty I have no partition in 8.04) | 07:02 |
| kton876 | things like restricted extras, and some common packages are on 1 star, which only makes me check twice and think 'hey, this can't be the right package' | 07:02 |
| kindofabuzz | kton876, i've never even used the add/remove feature, apt-cache search and apt-get install are my friends =) | 07:03 |
| kton876 | but what version is in restricted extras? | 07:03 |
| psypher246 | zvacet: that didn't fix it dude, would doing a killall gnome-panel reload the settings or would i have to restart gnome | 07:03 |
| psypher246 | or X | 07:03 |
| kton876 | kindofabuzz - not remembering package names and typing 3 letters of the 6 apps you want to install on each new install is your friend | 07:03 |
| kton876 | I think you meant to say that | 07:03 |
| zvacet | jigp : yes read http://psychocats.s465.sureserver.com/ubuntu/separatehome | 07:03 |
| kindofabuzz | kton876, that's what apt-cache search or synaptic are for | 07:04 |

| mobi-sheep | jigp: Yes. | 07:04 |

| kton876 | man kindofabuzz | 07:06 |

| kton876 | since you use apt-cache search - I am sure you specifcy which apps to look for, since you can search OS or All | 07:06 |
| zvacet | psypher246: one I want to sett to default and I need to remove folders I told you so I think it will be same if you want custumize sorry if didn´t work | 07:06 |

| kton876 | pfffff, I hate having to remember things, I like things to be easily reproducible and not special cases. | 07:07 |
| kindofabuzz | kton876, when you apt-cache search you're searching everything | 07:07 |
| zvacet | ,igp: try transmission then | 07:07 |
| kton876 | ok thanks | 07:08 |
| jigp | zvacet: nope its not working here right now.i even restarted the gnome..ktorrent won't show up | 07:08 |
| kindofabuzz | jigp, http://deluge-torrent.org/, no need for kde libraries | 07:08 |

| mumtazah1 | how to solve it? | 07:15 |
| ziroday | kton876: your /etc/apt/sources.list and sudo apt-get update | 07:16 |
| traskbt | I can't find the /dev location that my SD card is mounted at, dmesg doesn't seem to help, here is my pastebin'd dmesg: http://pastebin.ca/1418940 | 07:16 |
| AustinS | how can I check CPU temperature? | 07:16 |
| ziroday | traskbt: can we have your sudo fdisk -l please | 07:16 |
| kton876 | I tried that, and it froze on security.ubuntu.com (I am on 3g, but it took waaaaay too long) | 07:17 |

| gonzojive | I just installed 08.04.2 with the alternative CD. I used configured RAID 1 in the installer (software raid 1 with a swap raid partition and a root raid partition). after booting up the system, the performance is awful. It takes 30 seconds to load the images in the menus, for example. Any idea why it's so slow? | 07:19 |
| ice_cream | raddy, yea, you'd have to add a new line yourself | 07:19 |
| raddy | ice_cream: NTFS partitions have been mounted already | 07:20 |

| commander_ | i like awn but cairo dock does stacks better among other things | 07:31 |
| Duckslammer | bullgard - i have just learned about wicd - it beats NetworkManager all to hell | 07:32 |
| vaul | bullgard4: Right click on it and check that "Networking" is enabled/ | 07:32 |
| bullgard4 | Duckslammer: Well, I am hesitating. Network Manager Applet is Ubuntu's default. | 07:33 |
| frogscott | vaul: no im trying to screen capture videos | 07:33 |
| Duckslammer | bullgard: wicd has more features | 07:33 |

| ice_cream | raddy, it can be.. | 07:33 |
| bullgard4 | vaul: 'Enable Networking' is asserted. | 07:33 |
| ice_cream | something as basic and old as fstab will not be changed with a simple ubuntu release | 07:34 |

| vaul | bullgard4: Why are you so much upset about this? Follow your bug reports. | 07:38 |

| xPhilosx | rredd4, yes | 07:42 |
| xPhilosx | rredd4, well, assuming you have space | 07:42 |
| vaul | frogscott: Then it might be a good idea to install ccsm and look into it's settings. | 07:42 |
| xPhilosx | rredd4, you might also want to check out gparted | 07:42 |
| Duckslammer | redd4 you have to have windows installed first | 07:43 |
| vaul | Duckslammer: This could be the problem :-) | 07:43 |
| frogscott | vaul: will try | 07:43 |
| Duckslammer | vaul: what prob? | 07:43 |
| rredd4 | xPhilosx have hd space gparted but no linux | 07:43 |
| lowki | how do i get apt to list files? | 07:43 |
| vaul | frogscott: Wait a sec, I'll check my compiz. | 07:43 |
| lowki | of a package? | 07:44 |
| RHorse | I'm riding with Ubuntu | 07:44 |
| rredd4 | Duckslammer i do ;( | 07:44 |
| xPhilosx | rredd4, sure, if you have unpartitioned space then yep, ubuntu should come with a graphical interface to allow you to manually set that space to a new partition | 07:44 |
| Duckslammer | ubuntu is supposed to know how to shrink the windows partition | 07:44 |
| vaul | lowki: Why should you? You're synaptic hater? If not, use everywhere, when possible. | 07:44 |
| lowki | vaul: yes I am a command line lover | 07:44 |
| xPhilosx | rredd4, right, the other option is to run the ubuntu live CD and then partition within the live CD | 07:44 |
| Duckslammer | vaul: a good linuxer is at home with a command line | 07:45 |

| Duckslammer | rredd4, beware, when i installed ubuntu it ate my windows partition | 07:46 |
| vaul | frogscott: Hey, I've checkrd, compiz can't catch video with official plugins. | 07:46 |
| rredd4 | create new linux partition ext3 and also have ntfs partition | 07:47 |
| xPhilosx | rredd4, when you get to the last step with is installing GRUB, the program that will let you choose which OS to boot, be sure that it detects your windows install before erasing the master boot record | 07:47 |
| Duckslammer | lowki: google is your friend | 07:47 |
| robin0800 | rredd4: do it carefully then and make sure you know what your doing fist | 07:47 |
| vaul | frogscott: Look at ubuntuforums instead, there must surely be an answer. | 07:47 |
| tones | rredd4: i reccomend you use the "manual" partition editor in the ubuntu setup, to minimize the possibility of a mistake | 07:47 |
| lowki | Duckslammer: turns out i need apt-file | 07:47 |
| Duckslammer | lowki: aha - i need that info also | 07:48 |
| xPhilosx | rredd4, as long as you have that empty space that is unpartitioned you should be fine in the ubuntu installer, otherwise use the live cd with ubuntu and run something like gparted to make some space | 07:48 |

| hotcat | what's wrong with your sound card? | 07:55 |
| raddy | I used pysdm to add my NTFS drives in ntfs. | 07:55 |
| xPhilosx | RHorse, yeah, minimum bid for major areas containing spectrum started at like 3.5 billion | 07:55 |
| vaul | lowki: Yes, you're right — that is the right measurement. | 07:55 |
| RHorse | I could use some 700MHz bandwidth myself | 07:55 |
| Duckslammer | hotcat: i just installed jaunty on a laptop, sound card doesn't work | 07:55 |
| xPhilosx | they sold the 700mhz spectrum for roughly 15 billion total | 07:55 |
| RHorse | damn | 07:55 |
| raddy | It used ntfs driver even when enabled Read/Write/ | 07:55 |
| raddy | Should i choose ntfs-3g? | 07:56 |
| xPhilosx | RHorse, hah yeah, its a funny story | 07:56 |
| RHorse | they have to give free wireless I hear | 07:56 |
| xPhilosx | google was pushing for it to go free use like 2.4ghz | 07:56 |
| raddy | or ntfs driver it self is good in jaunty? | 07:56 |
| lowki | vaul: goes to prove that google censors, at least for alien related and anything the american government doesn't want the people to know | 07:56 |
| xPhilosx | but the major players like verizon wanted to buy it | 07:56 |
| xPhilosx | google offered a guarenteed bid of 3.5 billion and pushed their politics through | 07:57 |
| vaul | lowki: Too much offtopic for me at once, retry later. | 07:57 |
| maxagaz | where to set the default sans, sans serif and monospace font for gnome ? | 07:57 |
| RHorse | Free use! | 07:57 |
| xPhilosx | so the FCC sold the spectrum and then like a week later declared that the whitespace between the autioned spectrums would be free public use | 07:57 |

| xPhilosx | RHorse, its the license to operate 700mhz equipment | 07:59 |

| robin0800 | Duckslammer: As well as hotcat | 08:07 |
| Duckslammer | how do you make your text red? | 08:08 |
| xPhilosx | Duckslammer, first off, the red text should indicate someone used your nick | 08:09 |
| Duckslammer | ah ok | 08:09 |
| xPhilosx | second, there are control codes that some IRC apps can interpret as colors | 08:09 |
| robin0800 | Duckslammer: When it has your name in it this is a function of your irc program | 08:09 |
| xPhilosx | mIRC being one of the biggest "color junky" programs | 08:09 |
| RHorse | You mean, like this? | 08:10 |
| Duckslammer | xchat is colourful as well | 08:10 |
| lowki | hey my libtool isn't working "../libtool: line 847: X--tag=CC: command not found | 08:10 |
| xPhilosx | RHorse, nothin here but plain text | 08:10 |
| lowki | what can i do? i'm trying to compile vlc | 08:10 |
| RHorse | Dnt lie to me, you communist! | 08:11 |
| robin0800 | Duckslammer: So is quassel and konversation | 08:11 |
| === simono is now known as _simono_ | ||
| Duckslammer | xchat is installed by default in xubuntu | 08:11 |
| xPhilosx | lowki, how about sudo apt-get install vlc ? | 08:11 |
| === methril|weekend is now known as methril|work | ||
| xPhilosx | RHorse, nope, just plain text for me | 08:11 |
| Duckslammer | RHorse, just plain text here | 08:12 |
| xPhilosx | owned | 08:12 |
| robin0800 | Duckslammer: Quassel is now default in KDE | 08:12 |
| Duckslammer | robin0800, kde is slow for me | 08:12 |
| xPhilosx | irssi is good as well, and terminal irc programs can run in screen which is a plus | 08:13 |
| xPhilosx | RHorse, the channel is +c, so i dont think colors work | 08:13 |
| lowki | xPhilosx: it doesn't play .ogm | 08:13 |
| RHorse | now, they tell me! | 08:14 |
| xPhilosx | lowki, what does that have to do with installing it? | 08:14 |
| robin0800 | Duckslammer: Quassel is fast enough but still fairly new | 08:14 |
| lowki | xPhilosx: i installed it like that, but now I'm compiling from source hoping it will work | 08:14 |
| Duckslammer | do ubuntu users play go? :) | 08:15 |
| xPhilosx | lowki, unless they are different version numbers, what makes you think that VLC will behave any differently? | 08:15 |
| lowki | xPhilosx: nm i figured it out | 08:16 |
| lowki | turns out i wasn't supposed to use ./bootstrap | 08:16 |

| Tor_ | Hello. I have my /var/www directory chmod'ed to 777. What security risks do this pose? | 08:16 |
| xPhilosx | :) | 08:17 |
| kindofabuzz | dayo you still around? killing pulse and restarting it didn't work | 08:17 |
| SovietPower | Hey, I have a question... My installation of Ubuntu seems to have a conflict with my touch-pad on my laptop. Now, it shows up on the xinput list as an ALPS PS/2 GlideTouch type but also, there's a PS/2 Mouse input that's listed separately... Are they conflicting? Right now, touchpad doesn't work. | 08:17 |
| kindofabuzz | I need some assistance getting my sound working again. Worked fine until an app in wine caused X to crash. now no sound. =( | 08:17 |
| blongden | Hi all. I have a problem with my ubuntu installation - In order to install is last night on my desktop machine, I had to temporarily remove my graphics card (ATI Radeon 3870 X2) to get the install cd to boot (Both 32bit and 64bit would crash). Now that I have it installed, putting the graphics card back in causes the same crash during boot. It appears to happen at the point of hardware initialisation (right after the motherboard is registered). I have n | 08:18 |
| xPhilosx | Tor_, was that a serious question? | 08:19 |
| Tor_ | xPhilosx: Yes. Or no. I've actually have a school assignment to bring down my classmates servers as to learn of security. I wonder how to exploit their misstake. | 08:20 |
| RHorse | SovietPower, try gsynaptics? | 08:20 |
| xPhilosx | Tor_, hah, no sorry charlie | 08:20 |
| trigoman | Hello everyone, I have a question about aliases and I'm wondering if any of you could help me out with this. | 08:20 |
| SovietPower | RHorse: That doesn't work. It's unresponsive. | 08:20 |
| xPhilosx | Tor_, no one is going to help you break into another computer for a "school assignment" | 08:20 |
| xPhilosx | keeping in the school theme, thats about as lame as "the dog ate my homework" | 08:21 |
| eleite_ | Tor_: have you tried deleting their internet? | 08:21 |
| xPhilosx | eleite_, haha | 08:21 |
| SovietPower | Tor_, try tapping into their computer's built-in flux capacitor. | 08:21 |
| ice_cream | you need to surround the story in more bs | 08:21 |
| Tor_ | xPhilosx: I felt it would sound weird saying it like that though. And do you seriously think any real server would have /var/www chmod 777? | 08:21 |
| trigoman | I have an alias set to : alias install = "sudo apt-get install", and my problem is that when I try to press TAB for autocompletion after entering 'install' it does not work. | 08:21 |
| Andert | Hi everyone, I have a strange problem with my sound. Yesterday I played sound (with rythmbox and firefox). When I start my laptop today (ubuntu 9.04) I only got the login sound. Now I have tried a lot of configurations but nothing helped. | 08:21 |
| raylu | xPhilosx: take a look at quassel if you're using irssi in screen | 08:22 |
| ice_cream | much more bs with more bs details, Tor_ | 08:22 |
| vaul | Andert: Pulse, ALSA or so? | 08:22 |
| ice_cream | try giving your classmates names and your assignment a number/class | 08:22 |
| xPhilosx | Tor_, you would be better served reading about internet security | 08:23 |
| ice_cream | and social engineering | 08:23 |
| ice_cream | because you fail | 08:23 |
| xPhilosx | hah | 08:23 |
| Tor_ | I understand if there is a rule not to chat about security exploits, and if there is such a rule then just say so | 08:24 |
| * ice_cream ponders writing an article 'how to troll the troll' | 08:24 | |
| SovietPower | So anyway... Onto slightly more important things, is GSynaptics still supported? I went to a site that said GSyn was going down the toilet... | 08:24 |
| Tor_ | I'm just asking for help | 08:24 |
| trigoman | SovietPower, what do you guys want to do with GSynaptics? | 08:25 |
| SovietPower | trigoman Make my touchpad work... what else? | 08:25 |
| trigoman | If it's any relevant you may need to enable SHMConfig. | 08:25 |
| Andert | Vaul: I don't know... I think I've tried them all, when I go to gstreamer-properties and test ALSA, I get a sound :) | 08:25 |
| SovietPower | Oh that's right... I do.. but I can't touch my xorg.conf, because the last THREE times I did, my system GUI ripped itself to shreds. | 08:26 |
| trigoman | SovietPower, if you have not tried this I would recommend giving it a shot http://www.samlesher.com/ubuntu/enable-shmconfig-for-synaptics-touchpad-on-ubuntu-intrepid-ibex-810 | 08:26 |
| vaul | Andert: So now you have sound? Then it was matter of alsa. | 08:27 |
| trigoman | SovietPower, you seem a bit stressed relax, there is always a way to fix something. | 08:27 |
| xPhilosx | what if you had a one letter nick, like r s t l n e? | 08:27 |
| vaul | Andert: Next time try force-restarting alsa. | 08:27 |
| xPhilosx | would your whole screen be red in xchat? | 08:27 |
| SovietPower | trigoman Well this is about the third time I had to format my drive because the GUI exploded while trying to fix this touchpad... | 08:28 |
| eleite_ | lol | 08:28 |
| eleite_ | ..im laughing with you | 08:28 |
| devindersingh | hi | 08:28 |
| devindersingh | i want to set up a proxy server in Ubuntu | 08:28 |
| xPhilosx | weird, I didnt "hear" him laugh ;) | 08:29 |
| mysticdarkhack | hello all | 08:29 |
| Andert | Vaul: what do you mean next time? next time I restart? | 08:29 |
| trigoman | SovietPower, I'm assuming you are using the command line now are you? | 08:29 |
| devindersingh | i have two machines | 08:29 |
| vaul | Andert: Next time alsa hangs ;-) | 08:29 |
| devindersingh | one machine with two network cards | 08:29 |
| mysticdarkhack | anyone here using a usb wireless adaptor for the pc? | 08:29 |
| devindersingh | and another has one | 08:29 |
| Andert | I'll try it now | 08:29 |
| xPhilosx | devindersingh, https://help.ubuntu.com/8.04/serverguide/C/squid.html | 08:30 |
| SovietPower | trigoman I use command line for just about everything I do. But it's too late to save the old system. I killed it and started over again. | 08:30 |
| eleite_ | xPhilosx, yea me neither. im just laughing because i just had to reformat myself due to corrupt xconf | 08:30 |
| mysticdarkhack | I think there should be a usb kernel module and network manager to be able to detect usb wireless adaptor | 08:31 |
| xPhilosx | eleite_, why not just redo the xconf? | 08:31 |
| marc4870 | Quick question - Does anyone know of a problem with ATI 64 bit drivers and Jaunty? It seems to be giving 100% cpu usage at random times but I cant see anything using that much. | 08:31 |
| mysticdarkhack | usb wireless kernel module I meant | 08:31 |
| trigoman | SovietPower, well if you are using an new version of Ubuntu, xorg.conf is not the way to go, I think everything got changed, try the link I gave you to enable SHMConfig then try GSynaptics again. | 08:31 |
| SovietPower | trigoman Crap. I get to step 2 of the link you gave me and already it's different. I don't have "Synaptics TouchPad" in the file it told me to open. Actually, I don't have much at all in there. | 08:32 |
| xPhilosx | eleite_, (I realize thats like asking someone, 'Hey have you checked the key ring holder' if they cant find their keys, but hey, ill ask anyway) | 08:32 |
| trigoman | SovietPower, don't worry about that just add the line it tells you to, I'm pretty sure that most of it is custom to that user. | 08:32 |
| devindersingh | do i need two NIC on a PC to run pRoxy | 08:33 |
| eleite_ | xPhilosx, rofl | 08:33 |
| devindersingh | i need one of my PC to go through a proxy server | 08:33 |
| trigoman | SovietPower, you'll have to restart in order for this to take effect. | 08:33 |
| dYz | hi all, I have played around with compiz setting and now I can't use any of my personal short cuts and can only get two workspaces. Is there a way to reset my compiz settings to default? | 08:33 |
| eleite_ | xPhilosx, yea its ok. i was on here for awhile, we never could figure it out. im new to nix so that didnt help either. clean install - no worries. | 08:33 |
| xPhilosx | like that episode of the office where pam is trying to find some chips and dwight asks her if shes checked the vending machines | 08:33 |
| xPhilosx | hah, i laugh thinking about that | 08:33 |
| marian | hi to all | 08:33 |
| vaul | dYz: Surely, check compiz "Exteded preferences" or something that sounds like that. | 08:34 |
| vaul | dYz: There surely would be profile chooser with button "reset to defaults". | 08:34 |
| devindersingh | acl fortytwo_network src 192.168.42.0/24 | 08:34 |
| xPhilosx | eleite_, well, as long as its okay now | 08:34 |
| marian | i have an old machine and the newest ubuntu releases need more power, so i installed fluxbox, but i cannot configure xserver to load the romanian keyboard layout | 08:34 |
| devindersingh | ok i want my machine 203.121.4.5x to go throught a proxy server | 08:35 |
| devindersingh | the proxy server is 203.121.4.56 | 08:35 |
| devindersingh | how can i configure the settings | 08:35 |
| marian | setxkbmap ro -option ro_std do nothing | 08:35 |
| raylu | devindersingh: no, you don't need two NIC | 08:35 |
| xPhilosx | devindersingh, https://help.ubuntu.com/8.04/serverguide/C/squid.html | 08:35 |
| marian | setxkbmap ro -variant ro_std says error on loading new layout | 08:36 |
| thahauss | I just finished setting up my Raid array in Ubuntu 9.04 but am unsure of what filesystem will be best in my situation. I want the best performance possible as I will be compressing large files, and windows machines on the network need to be able to access the data. Any advice? | 08:36 |
| marc4870 | Does anyone know of a problem with ATI 64 bit drivers and Jaunty? It seems to be giving 100% cpu usage at random times but I cant see anything using that much. :( | 08:36 |
| xPhilosx | thahauss, is it a real raid array or fake raid? | 08:36 |
| raylu | thahauss: windows machines accessing the machine has nothing to do with the filesystem... but good luck with samba | 08:37 |
| thahauss | xPhilosx, a true raid using a dell perc 5i | 08:37 |
| thahauss | raylu, how is that when windows cant see ext4? please correct me if I'm wrong | 08:37 |
| devindersingh | so can i just run squid on UBuntu and it would proxy to another proxy server | 08:37 |
| dYz | vaul: thanks very much, it works now. | 08:37 |
| vaul | dYz: It's nothing. | 08:37 |
| raylu | thahauss: because you're sharing it over the network anyway. it's not like the windows machines are accessing it via a sata cable | 08:37 |
| xPhilosx | thahauss, ah okay, i was gonna suggest not even wasting your time, because 95% of the time its soft-raid. Sorry though, I dont know much about actual raid and optimizations | 08:37 |
| xPhilosx | Devastatorius, did you want to *run* a proxy server, or just connect to one? | 08:38 |
| thahauss | raylu, oohh I see, so no issue using ext4 and windows machines being able to read / write to the network share? | 08:38 |
| TheFunkbomb | do any of you have issues with the flash plugin not working? | 08:38 |
| raylu | thahauss: right | 08:38 |
| === baskingshark is now known as paul68 | ||
| thahauss | raylu, great, TY | 08:39 |
| raylu | xPhilosx: wrong nick | 08:39 |
| thahauss | raylu, ext4 it is | 08:39 |
| vaul | TheFunkbomb: It seems that you do? | 08:39 |
| xPhilosx | devindersingh, did you want to *run* a proxy server, or just connect to one? | 08:39 |
| xPhilosx | raylu, thanks | 08:39 |
| raylu | now and then, i need to restart firefox for flash movies to show up | 08:39 |
| TheFunkbomb | vaul, yes, yes I do | 08:39 |
| jpazos | Hello all | 08:40 |
| xPhilosx | TheFunkbomb, i had issues until i installed ubuntu minimal, but that could just be coincidence | 08:41 |
| TheFunkbomb | right right | 08:41 |
| paul68 | I have the following setup isp => router>server (setup as router with 2 ip's incomming 192.168.0.122 outgoing 192.168.3.22) wireless switch with 2 laptops and 1 desktop, what do I need to do to make sure that I can reach my desktop(ip 192.168.3.xx directly from my work ? | 08:41 |
| xPhilosx | TheFunkbomb, before xubuntu and ubuntu both wouldnt play flash | 08:41 |
| the1corrupted | trigoman: Still didn't work | 08:41 |
| indSpike | jpazos: hello | 08:41 |
| vaul | TheFunkbomb: Unfortunately it seems that you're the only one. But what caused this crash? | 08:42 |
| raylu | paul68: reach how? generally, forward the incoming ports on the router to the server | 08:42 |
| bullgard4 | In Ubuntu 8.04.2 there is a process 'NetworkManagerDispatcher'. Why does it not exist any more in Ubuntu 9.04? Has it been replaces with nm-system-settings? | 08:42 |
| xPhilosx | TheFunkbomb, flash used to lock up xubuntu and ubuntu whenever I tried to watch something | 08:42 |
| Sebboh | hi. I'm running Jaunty now and I want to use some sort of jail-like product, like vserver or openvz. What are my options? | 08:42 |
| TheFunkbomb | vaul, sometimes it just stops working. I just reinstalled it and restarted firefox. | 08:42 |
| xPhilosx | oh, well i guess we had seperate issues | 08:42 |
| trigoman | the1corrupted, you were not able to install GSynaptics? | 08:42 |
| Andert | vault: Oh, man, I now have sound on Pidgin, but not rythmplayer..., I'm a little confused | 08:42 |
| Andert | vaul: * | 08:43 |
| paul68 | raylu: well at this point I can reach my server directly with a portforward but don't know what modifications I need to do to reach my desktop from there | 08:43 |
| the1corrupted | trigoman No, GSynaptics won't run because SHMConfig isn't enabled... | 08:43 |
| raylu | paul68: again, reach how? | 08:43 |
| paul68 | raylu: through ssh | 08:43 |
| trigoman | the1corrupted, .. but we just enabled it... | 08:43 |
| vaul | Andert: Check if *rhytmbox* is using pulse or alsa, whaterver is set in your general settings? | 08:43 |
| raylu | paul68: since you only have wan ip, set up ssh on a different port | 08:43 |
| the1corrupted | trigoman It appears not to be... | 08:44 |
| devindersingh | i need my machine to proxy to a another PC | 08:44 |
| trigoman | the1corrupted, you added this line <merge key="input.x11_options.SHMConfig" type="string">On</merge> correct? | 08:44 |
| paul68 | raylu: I can ssh to my server from work but only on 1 port so I would like to be able to reach my desktop using the same port but don't know if this is possible | 08:44 |
| vaul | TheFunkbomb: When it stops, do system lacks free resouces? | 08:44 |
| Andert | vaul: I can't find those settings... I have to go now, Ill be right back | 08:45 |
| TheFunkbomb | vaul, no, I have plenty of resources. | 08:45 |
| the1corrupted | trigoman I c&p'ed the whole thing because it looked nothing like my file... | 08:45 |
| bullgard4 | s/replaces/replaced/ | 08:45 |
| raylu | paul68: not really, no. why can't you set it up on a different port? | 08:45 |
| trigoman | the1corrupted, did you make a back up? | 08:45 |
| the1corrupted | trigoman Yeah... | 08:46 |
| trigoman | the1corrupted, mind if I pm you? | 08:46 |
| the1corrupted | trigoman Nope. | 08:46 |
| shashwatpns | is there any GUI software which changes the ip address??????? | 08:46 |
| xPhilosx | devindersingh, http://ubuntu.wordpress.com/2006/12/08/ssh-tunnel-socks-proxy-forwarding-secure-browsing/ | 08:46 |
| xPhilosx | devindersingh, that is how you would tunnel, im not exactly sure what you want to do | 08:47 |
| paul68 | raylu: since I am at work and they don't want to open other ports on their proxy so I can only go out on 1 port thats the problem | 08:47 |
| leagris | paul68, you may use FreeNX from Nomachine.com. this allow to remotely access your desktop via a ssh tunel | 08:48 |
| SPF | the export http_proxy, does that work for programs like firefox too or do I have to manually set the proxy for each program? | 08:48 |
| vaul | TheFunkbomb: *lack. In other world, do other apps freeze or run slowly? | 08:48 |
| vaul | TheFunkbomb: Also check if *adobe* flash plugin installed and activated, not some free analogue. | 08:48 |
| vaul | TheFunkbomb: This could be done from down-right corner, white lego icon, in the pages which have active flash content. | 08:48 |
| raylu | leagris: he already has that, but he wants access to two different machines behind the same router | 08:49 |
| raylu | paul68: you could set up sshd on port 80, i suppose | 08:49 |
| raylu | paul68: alternatively, you could ssh into your server and ssh into your desktop from there. | 08:49 |
| xPhilosx | raylu, seems inefficient though | 08:49 |
| paul68 | raylu: thats what I do right now but would like to do it directly | 08:49 |
| TheFunkbomb | vaul, no, no other freezes. I have a good machine. The plugin is installed and activated. The real one. | 08:49 |
| paul68 | leagris: what is the website of this? | 08:50 |
| gartral | what can i get a reliable reading of how much ram is in my system? | 08:50 |
| raylu | xPhilosx: so does NAT and firewalling as a whole :P | 08:50 |
| leagris | paul68, nomachine.com | 08:50 |
| rumpel2 | gartral, free | 08:50 |
| raylu | paul68: oh, the other solution: make the internet switch to IPv6 | 08:50 |
| vaul | TheFunkbomb: Then my only idea is that it is proprietary plugin issue. | 08:50 |
| raylu | then you won't have this NAT crap to deal with | 08:50 |
| TheFunkbomb | vaul, thanks. I'll figure it out sometime | 08:50 |
| leagris | raylu, he can still port forward remote hosts addresses to different local ports | 08:51 |
| gartral | my system is showing quite a bit less ram then it should... | 08:51 |
| raylu | TheFunkbomb: you could install it manually | 08:51 |
| shashwatpns | how do i change my ip | 08:51 |
| TheFunkbomb | raylu, yeah, I'll try that next. | 08:51 |
| raylu | leagris: but the corporate firewall doesn't allow outgoing connections on all of them | 08:51 |
| raylu | gartral: free | 08:52 |
| rumpel2 | shashwatpns, ifconfig ethX 192.168.bla .... or lookup man ifconfig | 08:52 |
| openstep | hi | 08:52 |
| raylu | gartral: -m, -g to get it in mb/gbs | 08:52 |
| leagris | raylu, only one ssh connexion can port forward different hosts and ports | 08:52 |
| openstep | may I ask for some help? | 08:52 |
| rumpel2 | shashwatpns, or ubuntus network-config-gui :) | 08:52 |

| jumbers | Is there any easy way to set up a name server in Ubuntu server? | 08:53 |
| raylu | !bind | jumbers | 08:54 |

| raylu | o.0 | 08:54 |
| gartral | rumpel2: i'de like to keep it from degrading further if thats the cause... | 08:54 |
| jumbers | raylu: :o | 08:54 |
| raylu | !info bind9 | 08:54 |
| ubottu | bind9 (source: bind9): Internet Domain Name Server. In component main, is optional. Version 1:9.5.1.dfsg.P2-1 (jaunty), package size 234 kB, installed size 744 kB | 08:54 |
| jumbers | raylu: Does it require lots of work to setup and maintain? | 08:54 |
| leagris | raylu, ok sorry, got it partly. Maybe an http proxy would do it but if it is against the corporate firewall rules, it may be against the corporate rules as well. And no one should work around that. | 08:54 |
| raylu | jumbers: i've never done it | 08:54 |
| paul68 | leagris: so if I understand correctly its like remote desktop for linux for your complete network or am I wrong? | 08:54 |
| jumbers | raylu: I'm trying to decide between that and just going with a registrar that provides free DNS | 08:55 |
| xPhilosx | jumbers, i would suggest reading some internet "theory" before running off to setup a bind9 server--it will help you both configure and successfully run a bind server. In essence, read a lengthy manual and tutorial on bind that explains *why* things work | 08:55 |
| xPhilosx | jumbers, that helped me out tremendously when I set mine up in debian | 08:55 |
| d1ogenes | has anyone succeeded installing a cherry smart card reader in ubuntu? | 08:55 |
| leagris | paul68, like remote desktop it is. You have to work out the multiple hosts thing with port forwarding if the remote hosts are behind a NAT | 08:55 |
| hardikar | hi I actually made a custom card deck for solitaire but I can't see my cards when i start solitaire | 08:55 |
| xPhilosx | jumbers, typically you will need to different nameservers with different IP's geologically seperated | 08:56 |
| xPhilosx | *two different | 08:56 |
| jumbers | xPhilosx: I appreciate the suggestion, but I honestly don't have all that much free time. I'd just like to be able to get my DNS up and running smoothly without a whole lot of work | 08:56 |
| raylu | xPhilosx: *geographically :P | 08:56 |
| xPhilosx | bleh | 08:56 |
| xPhilosx | i suck at ingrish | 08:56 |
| jumbers | raylu: Hehe, geologically ;) | 08:56 |
| xPhilosx | seperated by rocks, yes | 08:56 |
| xPhilosx | its the only way | 08:56 |
| raylu | though, if you ever manage to geologically separate my dns servers, please write up a tutorial or something :D | 08:56 |

| bob_ | I do but why can't I install from the GUI? | 09:10 |
| Jygga | no seriously take a look at the content of that script before you execute it | 09:10 |
| ikonia | bob_: because it's a script file - scripts don't run in the gui | 09:11 |
| Sagaci | sh requires terminal | 09:11 |
| xPhilosx | Jygga, hes asking how to run a shell script and you think he will know to pick one apart for security flaws? | 09:11 |
| bob_ | So If I want to be able to install from GUI I should allways get .deb? | 09:12 |
| simplexio | bob_: yes | 09:12 |
| Sagaci | yeah, and run via Gdebi | 09:12 |
| Sagaci | or the like | 09:12 |
| xPhilosx | bob_, i would strongly suggest taking a quick read on running scripts in the terminal | 09:12 |
| xPhilosx | it will help in the future | 09:12 |
| Jygga | he might say something like "i dont get what it does" and then somebody is like "copy it and paste it on this pastebin: " | 09:12 |
| simplexio | bob_: or better use apt-get(command line) or synaptic package manager, you can "trust" those packages from ubuntu repositories | 09:12 |

| jigp | hello guys I am using irssi+bitlbee connected with yahoo account remotely.how to log all chat?so that I can view the logs from old logs to new...thanks | 09:42 |
| zaggynl | check the irssi manual page, should be in there | 09:43 |
| lstarnes | jigp: /set autolog | 09:43 |

| raylu | how exactly does one go about adding "+" to the make parent rule? | 09:43 |
| jigp | lstarnes: done that sir but how to read the old logs? im connected via ssh and accessing the box of my sis from her home to school | 09:44 |
| lstarnes | jigp: you have to go into the directory where the logs were saved and manually read the logs | 09:44 |
| jigp | lstarnes: and if I have something to read like for example it is May 11, 2009 now, let say I want to read the log of the user I've chatted like May 1, 2009? | 09:45 |
| thahauss | _ruben can you please direct me to resources to create a GPT label, I searched google but I'm so new to ubuntu I dont know the terminology well | 09:45 |
| lstarnes | jigp: was irssi logging back then? | 09:45 |
| lstarnes | jigp: also, what is autolog_path set to? | 09:45 |
| Pierre1 | TAiL- >>> For no IPV6 It don't work with ubuntu 9.04 | 09:46 |
| jigp | lstarnes: I don't know how to read the logs because I cannot get out in bitlbee channel (where I can see who's online and not online) | 09:46 |
| jigp | lstarnes: I am just a shell user.i am not root | 09:46 |
| jigp | lstarnes: my sis won't give and I don't need it either | 09:46 |
| lstarnes | jigp: I don't think bitlbee logs anything, but I know irssi can | 09:46 |
| SkyNetMaster | hello, after upgrade to jaunty the ctrl-x in terminal is not working, so I have no way to exit running terminal application, any ideas how to fix it? | 09:47 |
| jigp | lstarnes: yeah it can log (irssi) but im not sure with bitlebee..i am using yahoo messenger inside bitlbee | 09:47 |
| lstarnes | jigp: through irssi? | 09:47 |
| lstarnes | jigp: irssi can log from any irc server, including bitlbee | 09:48 |
| jigp | lstarnes: this is what I did if I connect. type screen -rD jigp | 09:48 |

All the other programs work just fine including vbox with guest additions. If I switch Compiz off the problem goes away... I do however prefer to have compiz runing anyadvice | 09:48 |
| lstarnes | jigp: and what is autolog_path set to? | 09:49 |
| jigp | lstarnes: I /setautolog in screen but nnot in irssi | 09:49 |
| lstarnes | jigp: I mean in irssi | 09:49 |
| jigp | lstarnes: I have not type autolog_path in irssi | 09:49 |
| lstarnes | jigp: it should be set to something by defauly | 09:49 |
| lstarnes | *default | 09:49 |
| thahauss | _Ruben, thank you! | 09:50 |
| jigp | lstarnes: ok if im in irssi ill type /set autolog? | 09:51 |
| arjun | sjoe does anyone know how to help me out here ?? | 09:51 |
| jigp | lstarnes: I type it in screen and also in irssi | 09:51 |
| lstarnes | jigp: type /set autolog and look in the status window for the settings | 09:51 |
| lstarnes | jigp: do it in irssi, NOT screen | 09:52 |
| lstarnes | although you can do it in irssi in screen | 09:52 |
| jigp | Istarnes : ok done /set autolog | 09:52 |
| lstarnes | jigp: that does not enable it | 09:52 |
| lstarnes | jigp: that just checks autolog-related settings | 09:52 |
| jigp | I see | 09:53 |
| ikanobori | /set autolog on | 09:53 |
| lstarnes | jigp: go to window 1 and look for the autolog and autolog_path settings | 09:53 |
| lstarnes | jigp: tell me what those say | 09:53 |
| ikanobori | /set autolog yes | 09:53 |
| lstarnes | jigp: don't do /set autolog on until after you check the settings | 09:53 |
| ikanobori | /set autolog_path = "~/irc_logs/$tag/$0/%Y/%m/%e.txt"; | 09:53 |
| ikanobori | something like that | 09:53 |
| ikanobori | also put it in your ~/.irssi/config file | 09:54 |
| lstarnes | ikanobori: right now he wants to know if it has been logging and where it is storing the logs | 09:54 |
| ikanobori | lstarnes: aha | 09:54 |
| ikanobori | check autolog_path then :) | 09:54 |
| ikanobori | /set autolog_path and see what happens in window 1 :) | 09:55 |
| civpro | hey guys i finally got a gui | 09:56 |
| civpro | after a crapload of burns: ubuntu, arch, centos, fedora, bds, redhat, and a few others opensuse finally worked | 09:57 |
| zaggynl | civpro: which begs the question, why did opensuse work and the other distros not? | 09:57 |
| zaggynl | *and not the other distros | 09:57 |
| arjun_ | soz guys my pc decided to reset itself .... anyhow ... does anyone know how to fix my problem | 09:58 |
| zaggynl | arjun_: what is your problem? | 09:58 |
| zaggynl | :( | 09:58 |
| civpro | zaggyn1, redhat noticed my video card, but no sata support, fedora you would figure would work | 09:59 |
| civpro | but it didnt | 09:59 |
| Lint01 | is it possible to remove dpkg& | 09:59 |
| civpro | mostly because opensuse gave me the option on the dvd, to set the screen resolution | 09:59 |
| raylu | fedora had no sata support? uh... i'm pretty sure it does | 09:59 |
| civpro | raylu, thats not what i said | 10:00 |
| civpro | read what i wrote | 10:00 |
| jigp | Istarnes : http://pastebin.com/m5009e246 | 10:00 |
| lstarnes | Lint01: why do you want to remove dpkg? | 10:00 |
| raylu | redhat noticed my video card, but no sata support | 10:00 |
| civpro | yes, redhat, not fedory | 10:00 |
| civpro | fedora | 10:00 |
| lstarnes | jigp: you did not have logging enabled | 10:00 |
| civpro | fedora, wouldnt recognize the video card | 10:01 |
| lstarnes | jigp: to enable it from now on, do /set autolog on | 10:01 |
| raylu | civpro: since they're basically the same thing and you said "fedora" afterward, i figured you were using them interchangeably | 10:01 |
| lstarnes | jigp: you might also want to change the autolog path before doing that | 10:01 |
| ibbo | hi, I'm trying to get right-click to work on my tablet pen on my tablet pc in Jaunty. I used to set some options in xorg.conf to do this, but now when I try to do this I get errors in X.

| lstarnes | jigp: I have my autolog_path set to something like ~/irclogs/$tag/$0/%Y-%m-%d.log | 10:01 |
| Lint01 | i want to remove the package manager to hinder adding/removing programs | 10:01 |
| lstarnes | Lint01: why? | 10:02 |
| jigp | lstarnes: ikanobori: how to enable it? but btlbee is already running and I've added yahoo messenger account there...i really want to store the logs of my yahoo messenger because my sis/mom/relatives/friends are msging me... | 10:02 |
| civpro | raylu, nope | 10:02 |
| civpro | like you said, fedora does support sata | 10:02 |
| civpro | you figure though for a paid os, they would support sata | 10:02 |
| lstarnes | jigp: which would put today's logs for this channel in ~/irclogs/freenode/#ubuntu/2009-05-11.log | 10:02 |
| TAiL- | Lint01: just remove the ppl that shouldn't have access to sudo in /etc/sudoers | 10:02 |
| TAiL- | Lint01: then they won't be able to install software | 10:02 |
| lstarnes | Lint01: without being in the admin group, a user can't do anything as admin | 10:02 |
| jigp | lstarnes: sorry but how to set a path?I am not a root :( im just a user..though I don't need root because I just need communication with my friends | 10:03 |

| lstarnes | jigp: you do NOT need root access for that | 10:03 |
| lstarnes | jigp: just a home folder | 10:03 |
| Lint01 | well, the user should be able to perform root operations, but not messing up with software | 10:03 |
| ali1234 | so any ideas why php just refuses to work on my apache? i have purged all apache and php packages, deleted /etc/apache2 and /etc/php5 and reinstalled everything from scratch, but it still doesn't work | 10:04 |

| ali1234 | raylu: doesn't work: apache acts as if php is not installed and just offers me to download the .php files | 10:05 |

| lstarnes | Pierre1: opera has a problem with all websites? | 10:25 |
| Pierre1 | yes | 10:26 |
| raylu | indus: one way is to look at your hostname (/whois indus) and stick it in a geoip thing like the one in the ubuntu repositories or maxmind.com | 10:26 |
| lstarnes | Pierre1: then it is probably not ipv4 | 10:26 |
| lstarnes | Pierre1: ipv6 | 10:26 |

| Bogh | hi everyone | 10:27 |
| Bogh | i have a problem | 10:27 |
| indus | Bogh: yes tell us | 10:27 |
| === sleepy_cat_ is now known as c_nick | ||
| Bogh | when i use vmware player it happens to disable my shortcuts, ex. can't use ctrl, shift, alt, etc. | 10:27 |
| Bogh | not when i open vmware player | 10:28 |
| remoteCTRL1 | !dontzap | 10:28 |
| 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. | 10:28 |
| jigp | Istarnes : to access it "cd ~/irclogs" ? | 10:28 |
| Bogh | it works, but dunno why for no reason they stop working | 10:28 |
| Cevarief | I plug USB 3G modem. it's well detected. But i'm confused how to disconnect it. What console command should i use ? something like safe remove. | 10:28 |
| Bogh | dunno maybe it's not vmware and it's something else | 10:28 |
| Bogh | now i can't use ctrl shift or alt | 10:28 |
| lstarnes | jigp: that will tell your terminal to move into ~/irclogs | 10:28 |
| Bogh | and i have to relog | 10:28 |
| Pierre1 | lstarnes: it firefox, il's possble to disable Ipv6 but, not in Opera | 10:28 |
| Bogh | dunno exactly how to explain | 10:28 |
| remoteCTRL1 | gosh this sudo dontzap --disable doesnt work for me, what now? | 10:29 |
| Bogh | but it's killing me | 10:29 |
| Bogh | to have to relog | 10:29 |
| raylu | !work | remoteCTRL1 | 10:29 |
| ubottu | remoteCTRL1: Doesn't work is a strong statement. Does it sit on the couch all day? Does it want more money? Is it on IRC all the time? Please be specific! Examples of what doesn't work tend to help too. | 10:29 |
| jigp | lstarnes: all chat also in yahoo messenger bitlbee will be stored there too? :) | 10:29 |
| lstarnes | jigp: irssi will log everything | 10:29 |
| bullgard4 | In Ubuntu 8.04.2 there is a process 'NetworkManagerDispatcher'. Why does it not exist any more in Ubuntu 9.04? Has it been replaced with nm-system-settings? | 10:29 |
| remoteCTRL1 | raylu: do you know what dontzap --disable is supposed to do? | 10:30 |
| Bogh | is there a way to restart my keyboard without relogging | 10:30 |
| raylu | remoteCTRL1: yes | 10:30 |
| remoteCTRL1 | raylu: so that is precisely what it does NOT do i dunno how i would explain this in more details | 10:30 |
| jigp | Istarnes : and the root can read everything too? | 10:30 |
| raylu | remoteCTRL1: what you have done until now. did you install the package? did you get any sort of error? | 10:30 |
| siddhartha | <lstarnes> : vlc 0.9.8a | 10:30 |
| Bogh | anyone, has any idea / | 10:31 |
| raylu | remoteCTRL1: oh, by the way, you have to restart X to enable the ctrl+alt+backspace restart :P | 10:31 |
| siddhartha | <lstarnes> 0.9.9 | 10:31 |
| remoteCTRL1 | raylu: yes i have installed the package, yes i have executed sudo dontzap --disable, no i did not get any errors and no, ctrl+alt+backspace does not work | 10:31 |
| lstarnes | jigp: technically root can read everything | 10:31 |
| remoteCTRL1 | raylu: aaaahh that a hint *g* | 10:31 |
| remoteCTRL1 | raylu: thanks man | 10:32 |
| jigp | lstarnes: ok thanks | 10:32 |
| lstarnes | jigp: but the permissions should only allow you (and root) to read them | 10:32 |

| daleharvey | ok, is there any mail / twitter notifiers that use the new ubuntu jaunty notifications? | 10:33 |
| raylu | giorgos: what kind of "mail folder?" just a dump of mail or a maildir or similar directory? | 10:33 |
| siddhartha | <lstarnes> : i'm using ubuntu 8.04 | 10:33 |
| giorgos | a maildir | 10:34 |
| lstarnes | siddhartha: I think there may be an updated .deb package for it somewhere | 10:34 |
| daleharvey | right now the only apps I can see using the notifications is the network/sound manager and pidgin | 10:34 |

| Bogh | ok, it's a vmware problem, in vmware the keyboard keys work fine, but in ubuntu don't work | 10:36 |

| kwak | hello all, just a quick question. i'm about to download Ubuntu 9.04 SE, the default is 64bit version: which is recommended, will this work also for x86 | 10:38 |
| j0ve | ryan_au, move the hidden file `/.openoffice.org out of your home directory and see if that does it | 10:38 |
| raylu | giorgos: http://newsgroups.derkeiler.com/Archive/Uk/uk.comp.sys.mac/2009-02/msg02098.html | 10:39 |
| j0ve | ryan_au, that is a hidden folder...not a file <smile> | 10:39 |
| raylu | kwak: no | 10:39 |
| raylu | kwak: also, SE? | 10:39 |
| ryan_au | j0ve: where do I move it? | 10:39 |
| giorgos | raylu..thanks | 10:40 |
| kwak | raylu: server edition | 10:40 |
| cmcasper | what is swat? | 10:40 |
| raylu | giorgos: yeah, no idea if that will work. you have a difficult problem | 10:40 |
| raylu | !swat | 10:40 |

| j0ve | ryan_au, just to some temporary place. When you run OO it will recreate it, and should restore the defaults if you have reinstalled 3.0 | 10:40 |
| cmcasper | yes | 10:40 |
| bullgard4 | What is a "network event" in 'man NetworkManager'? | 10:40 |
| happosade | !kernel | 10:40 |
| ubottu | The core of the Ubuntu Operating System is the Linux kernel: see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel - You shouldn't have to compile your own, but if you're convinced you do, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel/Compile - See also: /msg ubottu stages | 10:40 |
| j0ve | ryan_au, once you have done that (and it works) then you can delete the folder you moved. Moving it is just in case something goes wrong | 10:40 |

| j0ve | ryan_au, as far as I know, that one folder is the place all the configs are stored. If OO is still acting up, then I suspect there is something awry in the install | 10:49 |

| JGodbout | 8.04 | 11:17 |
| Dillizar | and firefox | 11:17 |

| Dillizar | yes | 11:18 |
| JGodbout | lol | 11:18 |
| JGodbout | That will take a while. | 11:18 |
| swiftarrow | JGodbout, actually, you can just use the adobe flash | 11:18 |
| chilli0 | hello all. | 11:18 |
| Dillizar | JGodbout,yes but you must have new mozilla so the flash player 10 will work | 11:18 |
| swiftarrow | JGodbout, i found that the other ones didnt work, but Adobe Flash does | 11:18 |
| eagle120 | are crashes related to Firefox? | 11:18 |
| eagle120 | does anyone know anything about crashes in 9.04?? | 11:18 |
| JGodbout | I have installed the adobe flash thing that youtube links me to when I get the error | 11:18 |

| JGodbout | I'm loving this fresh Ubuntu install. I was using 8.10 before, but it had all these problems with sound, wireless at school, USBs not automounting, nautilus messing up, etc. Now it's perfect :D | 11:20 |
| eagle120 | any suggestions for crashing 9.04?? | 11:20 |
| Dillizar | JGodbout, apt-get update && install firefox | 11:20 |
| JGodbout | Yeah I will | 11:20 |
| erUSUL_ | tripzero: do you patched the kernel in question ? did you run make oldconfig prior to make ? | 11:20 |
| cdoublejj | does 9.04 support the Radeon HD 3850 | 11:20 |
| cdoublejj | and does the ati catalyst support over clocking? | 11:20 |
| tripzero | erUSUL_: no patches. I get this on the vanilla and the kernel.ubuntu.com one. I did run oldconfig once also | 11:21 |
| bullgard4 | [Ubuntu 9.04] Network Manager Applet 0.7.0.100 shows nm-no-connection.png although there is eth0 connection. Left click shows the menu item 'Wired Network' grayed out. How to fix that? | 11:21 |
| JGodbout | Actually - Is there a way where I can schedule the updates? I want to start it at midnight, so it doesn't use up my bandwidth. Or should I just write up a quick hack to wait 4 hours and force a mouse press? | 11:21 |
| JGodbout | Wouldn't want something to bump my mouse though hehe | 11:22 |
| erUSUL_ | tripzero: and the error stops compilation ? never seen that and i compile many kernels (i follow vanilla development) | 11:22 |
| erUSUL_ | bullgard4: maybe you confgured your wired connection via /etc/network/interfaces ?? | 11:23 |
| Sangrial | Morning! | 11:23 |
| cdoublejj | morning | 11:23 |
| tripzero | erUSUL_: yes it stops compilation. That's why I think it has something to do with my config. 2.6.29 compiles perfect. 2.6.30rc3-4 don't | 11:24 |
| notwist_ | At my school, there's an LCD TV connected to a computer. Any suggestions on good software to display stuff like movies, pictures, documents and maybe even live info like news and weather? Any suggestions appreciated. | 11:25 |
| erUSUL_ | tripzero: well i'm running rc5 right now and comiled/runned rc4 without problems with my config from 2.6.29 | 11:25 |

| estan | (jaunty). | 11:27 |
| erUSUL | bullgard4: no; that's the loopback interface... if that's the case i dunno why NM is ignoring your wired connection | 11:27 |
| tripzero | erUSUL: okay, i'll compare the default config with mine and see if there is any intel stuff that shouldn't be there | 11:27 |
| estan | also, for some reason, about:plugins shows the mplayer plugin, eventhough i don't have mplayerplug-in installed.. | 11:27 |
| eleite | jhesketh: Arent users set under /home? | 11:27 |
| erUSUL | tripzero: you should also report the error to the kernel mailing list... send the error you got and your config file | 11:28 |
| bullgard4 | erUSUL: I do not know it either. :-( | 11:28 |
| Gothfunc | when setting up transmission-daemon, there's a setting in the config to set password: "rpc-password": "{d15b146a3063b3ade7d0fecaa9602218a327a8c8gOoal64v" <-- how do i make a new hash like that? | 11:28 |

| DaemonLee | Question, what ports do I need available to do printer sharing across a local network? | 11:35 |
| DaemonLee | tooarch, do you have many programs starting on login? | 11:35 |

| Duckslammer | infekteddeath, there is a dns error, perhaps your dyndns isn't setup correctly | 12:20 |
| ja660k | yes, a user can type in www.x.com but the url bar will display www.x.com/index.html | 12:20 |
| infekteddeath | thats what i was thinking | 12:20 |
| Duckslammer | that's it for sure :-) | 12:21 |
| leOn | ja660k: you can use a redirect ... | 12:21 |
| ja660k | okay ill look up syntax in the docs :D | 12:21 |

| ja660k | thanks | 12:21 |
| Duckslammer | infekteddeath, you can test it using dig or nslookup from the command line | 12:21 |

| B3rz3rk3r | Duckslammer, it will be different for everyone, due to motherboard/audio device | 12:24 |
| B3rz3rk3r | kaleotter, see reply to Duckslammer | 12:24 |

| Duckslammer | i am not able to get my audio working at all | 12:26 |
| B3rz3rk3r | Duckslammer, does your audio itself work at all? | 12:26 |
| Duckslammer | it did under windoze - this is a new ubuntu install | 12:27 |
| navlelo | my dpkg isnt working anymore, i get a permission denied error... does anyone know how to fix this? | 12:27 |
| Duckslammer | navlelo, give details | 12:27 |
| B3rz3rk3r | Duckslammer, obviously your skype audio will not work untill you actually have sound | 12:27 |
| Duckslammer | B3rz3rk3r, obviously :-) | 12:28 |
| B3rz3rk3r | kaleotter, did that solve your issue? | 12:28 |
| kaleotter | no | 12:28 |
| navlelo | uhm | 12:28 |
| kaleotter | i can get it to call, but it wont send or recive any audio | 12:28 |
| B3rz3rk3r | kaleotter, did you have audio at all before? | 12:28 |
| MrWizeGuy1983 | tripzero i downloaded it again (a different version) and i'm trying again, thanks for the info, it does look like it was incomplete | 12:28 |

| infekteddeath | its my ip address that my isp gives me right | 12:31 |
| infekteddeath | not the one my computer has thrugh the router | 12:31 |

| Hecate | cherva, what about reading the manpage? | 13:49 |
| fphhotchips | erUSUL: more stuff like any settings or vulnerablities or users that might be there by default that I should change, in any of the programs I've installed. I guess theres only going to be a couple thinks listening on ports that are accessible from the internet (because of port forwarding) | 13:49 |
| Hecate | cherva, ~/.ssh/rc -> Commands in this file are executed by ssh when the user logs in, just before the user’s shell (or command) is started. See the sshd(8) manual page for more information. | 13:49 |

| mobi-sheep | mrgreaper: That could be gtk-2.0 file something you editted on. Did you try the different Gtk login-theme? The possibility of displaying the error message properly? | 14:22 |

| Gokul | mobi-sheep, no .. i pressed enter on ubuntu desktop .... then it finished the installation...... now i get only a black terminal window | 14:31 |
| mobi-sheep | Gokul: I think you messed up on that part. My guess would be that you're supposed to use spacebar to toggle on/off and then press enter to continue. So from what it sounds like... you installed nothing (nothing were enabled). | 14:32 |

| albech | erUSUL, thanks i was looking for an netmask option but /24 will do ;) | 14:34 |

| Cryptic_Donkey | I am using irssi which is a command line irc client which mean that I don't have the ability to scroll up tge page Gokul | 14:43 |
| erUSUL | parapanghelescu: is the only one i know of | 14:43 |
| hollywoodb | Cryptic_Donkey: PgUp | 14:43 |
| parapanghelescu | someone was saying there are tons of it :d | 14:44 |
| pronoy | !gmailfs | 14:44 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about gmailfs | 14:44 |
| TonyTheTiger | is there a way to use windows drivers in ubuntu? | 14:44 |
| erUSUL | Cryptic_Donkey: use Avd Page/ Prev Page | 14:44 |
| Gokul | mobi-sheep, i placed alternate.iiso in C:\ and then downloaded hd-media files | 14:44 |
| mobi-sheep | Gokul: Okay. On the different computer, right? Can you run "sudo tasksel" right now (in black box)? | 14:44 |
| nmvictor | Cryptic_Donkey:You can with the PgUp and PgDn keys,im also using it | 14:44 |
| sipior | parapanghelescu: what exactly are you trying to do? just rearranging some pdfs? | 14:44 |
| Gokul | mobi-sheep, wrong | 14:44 |
| erUSUL | TonyTheTiger: only for network cards... and it is allways better to use the native one | 14:44 |
| pronoy | anyone know how to mount gmailfs ???????????? | 14:44 |
| TonyTheTiger | erUSUL, How about for something simple like a games controller? | 14:45 |
| erUSUL | TonyTheTiger: nope | 14:45 |
| mobi-sheep | Gokul: Explain more. Is this on the same computer? | 14:45 |
| Gokul | mobi-sheep, i placed alternateiso in C:\ and then used hd-media found in archive.ubuntu.com and then used grub4dos . and added to boot.ini ...... | 14:45 |
| parapanghelescu | sipior > mostly editing, eliminating some text, addind some text, maybe also some image/s | 14:45 |
| Gokul | mobi-sheep, and it will boot the iso | 14:45 |
| abhilash | <peperjack> thanks a lot:) i did it through terminal........ | 14:45 |
| pepperjack | n9ds: ive not seen any similar issue. i dont know why it would matter but does the hostname show up in attached devices on the router? if not try uncommenting 'send host-name "my-host.my-domain";' in /etc/dhclient.conf | 14:45 |
| TonyTheTiger | erUSUL, cheers for the answers :) | 14:45 |
| erUSUL | TonyTheTiger: no problem | 14:45 |
| Dealer | How can I check if both my graphic cards are working, SLI ? | 14:46 |
| mobi-sheep | Gokul: I hope you know what you're doing. You sounds like you're going to clean out XP? What you have to do is... to do it all again... and use spacebar to enable ubuntu-desktop *THEN* press enter. Don't scroll down and ENTER because that won't work. You need to make sure it's ENABLED first then you press ENTER to begin the installation. Okay? | 14:46 |
| pronoy | Dealer: you can check xorg.conf | 14:47 |
| pronoy | Dealer: if it's being used you can see that it has been mentioned in it | 14:47 |
| nmvictor | erUSUL:maybe type cd /var/log then gadit Xorg.O.log to read the Xorg log.if they are working,then they should appear in that file | 14:47 |
| pronoy | Dealer or you can always check the hardware drivers | 14:47 |
| Gokul | mobi-sheep, i am NOT firing xp out/ i want to setup dual boot.. | 14:48 |
| Gokul | mobi-sheep, and right now i am in xp . | 14:48 |
| erUSUL | nmvictor: ? | 14:48 |
| Gokul | mobi-sheep, i used this link > http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/jaunty/main/installer-i386/current/images/hd-media/ | 14:48 |
| mobi-sheep | Gokul: I see. Do what you have to do. Now you know what to do, right? | 14:48 |
| Gokul | mobi-sheep, so complete reinstall ? | 14:49 |
| mobi-sheep | Gokul: Yes. It was never installed in first place. You'll have to download packages from the Internet again and it'll take a while. | 14:49 |
| Gokul | mobi-sheep, i have the alternate iso .. | 14:49 |
| Gokul | mobi-sheep, it seems that you have understood partially what i am about | 14:50 |
| mobi-sheep | Gokul: You saw something like this... (Let me get a photo fast). | 14:50 |
| Mean_Admin | on a headless server, I'm trying to disable network manager as it isn't permitting me to assign static ips | 14:50 |
| Gokul | mobi-sheep, thnx.. i got the required info. (space bar) | 14:50 |
| Gokul | mobi-sheep, bye | 14:50 |
| Mean_Admin | once I uninstall it though, established connections will live on right ? | 14:50 |
| TonyTheTiger | Ubuntu is a great OS its got some good ideas but I dont think the dev's realise how much its a nightmare to use behind a proxy lan :( | 14:51 |
| erUSUL | Mean_Admin: dunno really how did you configured them ? | 14:51 |
| Amigadude | anyone setup the b43 driver? i shows in iwconfig but no APs show in network manager applet | 14:51 |
| Amigadude | it show... | 14:52 |
| Mean_Admin | erUSUL: well, network manager is just configured to dynamic ip | 14:52 |
| Mean_Admin | erUSUL: what I'm really asking is if networ manager is merely a frond-end (like firestarted would be to iptables) | 14:53 |
| erUSUL | Mean_Admin: if you remove NM you will have to use the interfaces file to configure the conections | 14:53 |
| lockzone | hello, any malaysian here? | 14:53 |
| erUSUL | Mean_Admin: man interfaces | 14:53 |
| erUSUL | Mean_Admin: it is not just a frontend | 14:53 |
| Mean_Admin | erUSUL: damn, I was afraid of that | 14:54 |
| Mean_Admin | erUSUL: 'cause I have two NICs and I'd love to have both of them just have static IPs | 14:54 |
| erUSUL | Mean_Admin: just set them up in the /etc/network/interfaces file | 14:54 |
| Mean_Admin | erUSUL: I did but NM seems to overide my settings | 14:55 |
| erUSUL | Mean_Admin: Nm ignores interfaces declared on that file | 14:55 |
| gabuntu | hello! just a question. when you use a usb drive you need to unmount it before removing it. what about other usb devices such as a usb webcam? do i have to unmount it in order to remove it? | 14:55 |
| ziroday | gabuntu: you don't | 14:55 |
| Mean_Admin | erUSUL: if I kill/uninstall NM, will the system revert back the interfaces file ? after a reboot or seomthing ? | 14:56 |
| erUSUL | gabuntu: webcams do not contain filesystems (so nothing gets mounted and nothing needs umounting) | 14:56 |
| Amigadude | how can I test whether a driver is working? does an wlan0 entry in iwconfig mean the driver is actually working? | 14:56 |
| ranf | !my | 14:56 |
| ubottu | bantuan bahasa melayu? sila join #ubuntu-my | 14:56 |
| ranf | !my | lockzone | 14:56 |
| ubottu | lockzone: please see above | 14:56 |
| erUSUL | Mean_Admin: asd i said even if installed NM shoud ignre interfaces defined in /etc/network/interfaces | 14:57 |
| erUSUL | Mean_Admin: can you paste your interfaces file ?? | 14:57 |
| notjohn | join #centos | 14:57 |
| erUSUL | !pastebin | Mean_Admin | 14:57 |
| ubottu | Mean_Admin: 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) | 14:57 |
| Mean_Admin | erUSUL: one second | 14:57 |
| gabuntu | ziroday and erUSUL: so i just unplug it and good to go? great! thank you! | 14:57 |

| sebyoga_ | Hello everybody | 14:58 |
| ubuntuserver | hi | 14:58 |
| nmvictor | sebyoga:hello | 14:58 |
| sebyoga_ | I have a question, what is this permission : drwx-----x | 14:58 |
| sebyoga_ | ??? | 14:58 |
| erUSUL | Mean_Admin: add a auto eth1 so the iface gets configured on startup | 14:58 |
| sebyoga_ | when i can return this with a chmod ? | 14:59 |
| Mean_Admin | erUSUL: done | 14:59 |
| ziroday | sebyoga_: that is only the creator (or root) can read write and execute that file, nobody else can do anything with it | 14:59 |
| Mean_Admin | erUSUL: anything else look crooked ? (assuming I know my gateway) | 14:59 |
| sebyoga_ | chmod 700 ? | 14:59 |
| ziroday | sebyoga_: chmod u=rwx /path/to/file | 15:00 |
| erUSUL | Mean_Admin: http://paste.ubuntu.com/169615/ | 15:00 |
| erUSUL | Mean_Admin: yep everything looks ok | 15:00 |
| sebyoga_ | no is drwx---r-x | 15:00 |
| erUSUL | Mean_Admin: when the file is saved do « sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart » | 15:01 |
| sebyoga_ | chmod 701 ! | 15:01 |
| sebyoga_ | :) | 15:01 |
| Mean_Admin | erUSUL: all right, I'll go along and copy&modify that paste to fit my needs :) | 15:01 |
| sebyoga_ | i found | 15:01 |
| Mean_Admin | erUSUL: all this assuming I'm gonig to uninstall NM afterwards ? | 15:01 |
| Kartagis | can you help me? my flash disk isn't recognized on the fs anymore. lsusb lists it. a windows pc recognizes it | 15:01 |
| tracy_ | anyone is use drcom | 15:01 |
| w3ccv | sebyoga_ "drwx-----x" it is a directory that an be read, written and searched by the owner. The final x says anybody can search the directory, but does not have any permissions to read it. | 15:01 |
| erUSUL | Mean_Admin: you do not need to but it wouldn't hurt either | 15:02 |
| Mean_Admin | erUSUL: why did you add dns-nameserver ? | 15:03 |
| sebyoga_ | yep is for vsftpd | 15:03 |
| w3ccv | sebyoga_ This is probably a directory dedicated to a FTP server, set up for private downloads | 15:03 |
| sebyoga_ | i want is go | 15:03 |
| TonyTheTiger | Guys I am trying to follow this guide https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Xbox360Controller to install a driver for my xbox 360 controller | 15:03 |
| sebyoga_ | Good w3ccv :) | 15:03 |
| sebyoga_ | is for ftp server ;o) | 15:03 |
| erUSUL | Mean_Admin: you probably need it or how do you specify the nameservers ? | 15:03 |
| TonyTheTiger | but its the first time im having to compile stuff, and im getting errors and i followed the guide | 15:03 |
| Mean_Admin | erUSUL: em, I always thought the 'gateway' took care of that | 15:04 |
| mobi-sheep | TonyTheTiger: "This HOWTO is written for Ubuntu 7.10, although it should apply, with a few modifications, to both older and newer versions. The HOWTO is an adaptation of a similar" Gentoo, etc. It's outdated by two years or so it seems to be. | 15:05 |
| TonyTheTiger | mobi-sheep, I see, what do you suggest I do? I am a complete ubuntu beginner. | 15:06 |
| mobi-sheep | TonyTheTiger: I don't know. I'm merely pointing out something I noticed. | 15:06 |

| LinuxNIT | i upgraded my system to the new release yesterday and now cntrl+alt+backspace will not restart the X server, any idea now to fix this? | 15:07 |
| Dr_Willis | !dontzap | LinuxNIT | 15:07 |
| ubottu | LinuxNIT: 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. | 15:07 |
| infekteddeath | www.infekteddeath.webhop.net | 15:07 |
| nana | nana | 15:07 |
| erUSUL | Mean_Admin: no but sometimes you get the nemaservers from the dhcp server with the ip but know you are using static ip not dhcp so you have to tell wich nameserver to use | 15:07 |
| mobi-sheep | TonyTheTiger: Yes, I noticed that. The "last edit" could be anything. Could be grammar too. If you followed it word for word, then I don't know why you're experiencing issues. I'm not expert... yet. :< | 15:07 |
| * LinuxNIT wonders why people have to go around changing linux basics | 15:08 | |
| TonyTheTiger | mobi-sheep, fair enough. Cheers for the heads up. | 15:08 |
| erUSUL | Mean_Admin: sometimes the router/gateaway has a dns so gateaway==dns but this is not allways true | 15:08 |
| ranf | infekteddeath, works without www. | 15:08 |
| Mean_Admin | erUSUL: all right then, sounds good | 15:08 |
| mobi-sheep | LinuxNIT: I think they're trying to avoid that practice. Perhaps too many people unintentionally restarted their X server. | 15:08 |
| pozic | I get atkbd.c: Unknown key released (translated set 2, code 0xbb on isa0060/serio0). Why from one release to another a basic keyboard won't work anymore is a mystery to me, however. It used to work fine with 8.10 | 15:09 |
| erUSUL | Mean_Admin: even if gateaway==dns you have to put the two lines on the interaces file pointing to the same ip | 15:09 |
| infekteddeath | well thats just wierd | 15:09 |
| infekteddeath | it works without the www | 15:09 |
| doglino | where can I ppaste an image? | 15:09 |
| mobi-sheep | doglino: ImageShack | 15:09 |
| gordonjcp | infekteddeath: didn't you see the message I posted earlier about that? | 15:09 |
| Dr_Willis | LinuxNIT: its not a 'linux' basic.. the X devs did it to the X stuff. X is for more then Linux. :) but go ask them on their forums. | 15:09 |
| infekteddeath | yeah | 15:10 |
| doglino | mobi-sheep thank champ | 15:10 |
| Mean_Admin | erUSUL: hm, in my case, my eth0 is actually a connected directly to another computer so I can take off the netmask and default gateway line, right ? | 15:10 |
| gordonjcp | infekteddeath: did you understand what I said? | 15:10 |
| infekteddeath | so you seen the balck and red web template i posted on it | 15:10 |
| gordonjcp | infekteddeath: no, I didn't visit the site, just looked up the domain | 15:10 |
| infekteddeath | maybe i didnt see it | 15:10 |
| gordonjcp | infekteddeath: okay, your dyndns thing works with infekteddeath.webhop.net | 15:11 |
| infekteddeath | ok | 15:11 |
| gordonjcp | but not www.infekteddeath.webhop.net | 15:11 |
| gordonjcp | infekteddeath: and that's probably because you didn't specify "www.infekteddeath" when you set it up | 15:11 |
| gordonjcp | infekteddeath: there's nothing magic about www | 15:11 |
| infekteddeath | ok | 15:12 |
| infekteddeath | cool | 15:12 |
| gordonjcp | it's not automagically prepended to URLs | 15:12 |

| tonytraductor | when I use the domain | 15:53 |

| nanomad | JaneDoe, and mounting shouldn't require sudo, you have to be member of the right group | 15:59 |
| nanomad | Wazzzaaa, try moving away the .gnome* folder to see if that helps | 16:00 |
| JaneDoe | nanomad: a package of one of the apps (QtCreator) seems to not install right unless it can set a ln. and I was pretty sure I got the right rights but I'll check | 16:00 |
| lmartin92 | nvm | 16:00 |
| tonytraductor | hmmm...I'm using the IP address for the desktop, that I get when I do ifconfig | 16:00 |
| Wazzzaaa | thnx nanomad, I will try that | 16:01 |
| tonytraductor | I don't know if that is the LAN or the Public one...it is the one the router assigns to the desktop | 16:01 |
| nanomad | JaneDoe, You can also install all the needed packages as admin and then use pessulus (if you are on gnome) to choose what apps a user has | 16:01 |
| tonytraductor | okay, maybe this is significant | 16:01 |
| Johnny_B_Good | hey guys I've got a question, well...when my friend starts his Ubuntu 9.04 on his laptop...he doesn't have internet...he uses the cable....so via eht0...but it doesn't work. we tried it with that http://nopaste.info/af0f1350e2.html ...but...still doesn't work... | 16:01 |
| THistle_Thorns | Anyone know about streaming mp3's up to a shoutast/icecast server here from ubuntu? | 16:01 |
| JaneDoe | nanomad: pessulus? never heard of. will google | 16:02 |
| pepperjack | Johnny_B_Good: does sudo dhclient eth0 work? | 16:02 |
| nanomad | Johnny_B_Good, you must use sudo to start networking | 16:02 |
| nanomad | Johnny_B_Good, and to stop it | 16:03 |
| Johnny_B_Good | ok...just a moment | 16:03 |
| tonytraductor | I found a DDNS Service option in the router admin interface, and it is disabled...other options or dydns | 16:03 |
| nanomad | tonytraductor, so it is the private one. It make sens | 16:03 |
| nanomad | tonytraductor, that is used to automagically register with ddns even if there are no pc on | 16:03 |
| nanomad | tonytraductor, it should work better IMHO | 16:03 |
| tonytraductor | yeah..changing that didn't help, either | 16:04 |
| tonytraductor | still connection refused at port 22 | 16:04 |
| nanomad | tonytraductor, but you will always need to formward the right port | 16:04 |
| Johnny_B_Good | nanomad, but have you seen the nopaste? | 16:04 |
| tonytraductor | I can't seem to figure out where to set the port forwarding in this darned router admin interface | 16:04 |
| nanomad | Johnny_B_Good, let me check it again | 16:04 |
| tonytraductor | so, why does it work with the IP address, but no the domain, without the port forwarding? | 16:04 |
| tonytraductor | I find that odd | 16:04 |
| Johnny_B_Good | nanomad, all right | 16:04 |
| nanomad | tonytraductor, the IP address is the LAN one so the router doesnt do any checks for portforwarding | 16:05 |
| nanomad | LAN to LAN is always enabled | 16:05 |
| j0ve | tonytraductor, the port forwarding is sometimes buried in the firewall settings on the router | 16:05 |
| nanomad | Johnny_B_Good, you have to use sudo ;) | 16:05 |
| tonytraductor | looking at the security tab right now | 16:05 |
| nanomad | tonytraductor, what router model do you have? | 16:06 |
| Johnny_B_Good | nanomad, just use "sudo /etc/init.d/networking start" or just your command "sudo dhclient eth0" | 16:06 |
| mug | batang | 16:06 |
| nanomad | Johnny_B_Good,, sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart | 16:07 |

| paolo88 | i can use ssh with a port that normally is not closed (es port 80) in a lan? | 16:14 |
| nanomad | paolo88, LAN -> LAN? | 16:14 |
| Lone_Crow | you can use whatever port you want | 16:14 |
| Lone_Crow | if all the port forwards are right and open | 16:14 |
| tonytraductor | host key validation failed | 16:15 |
| nanomad | tonytraductor, better | 16:15 |
| tonytraductor | I think that's because the IP whatsmyip gives is the router, and my username doesn't work on the router | 16:15 |
| paolo88 | nanomad: no, lan -> internet -> home | 16:15 |

| irch | Hello guys. I`m trying to set up a dual display for my notebook (LCD + additional monitor). Somehow, x server can`t detect the external display (connected on the VGA port), but i have a mirror image on it. xrandr -q shows me the stats only for my native LCD. I`m using Ubuntu 8.10 with Catalyst 9.4, video card being an ati hd2400xt. Any suggestion on what to do next ? | 16:54 |

| Yanick_ | Hi, I'm sick of gFTP crashing all the time when transfering files (the problem hasn't been resolved in two years, wth?) anyone have a better FTP client to suggest? | 16:56 |
| irch | arrrrw: i`ve just installed catalyst 9.4 from ATI / AMD website like 10 minutes ago. | 16:56 |
| tonytraductor | oddly...i just checked the dydns host update logs, and since I manually updated the IP, ddclient has updated it again, and correctly, while, I can see that before I did the manual update, ddclient had updated it incorrecly | 16:56 |
| pepperjack | Yanick_: ftp | 16:56 |
| eseven73 | Yancho, filezilla is good | 16:56 |
| arrrrw | irch: no idea, sry | 16:57 |
| irch | arrrrw: the issues seems to be bot with the drivers, but with the "system" failing to detect the external LCD | 16:57 |
| Yanick_ | pepperjack, ftp? there's no package of the name...? | 16:57 |

| Luigi | Hi. When is the next LTS release planned to be? | 16:59 |
| ikonia | !lts | 17:00 |
| ubottu | LTS means Long Term Support. LTS versions of Ubuntu will be supported for 3 years on the desktop, and 5 years on the server. | 17:00 |
| tonytraductor | I also incorporated ftp functions in the text editor I wrote, TclText (http://freshmeat.net/projects/tickletext/) | 17:00 |
| Pici | Luigi: Either 10.04 or 10.10 | 17:00 |
| tonytraductor | that way I can edit my webpages in the text editor and up/download them from my servers, and stuff like that | 17:00 |
| bullgard4 | 'man NetworkManager': "Each skript receives two arguments..." I suppose that NetworkManager will call these scripts together with these 2 arguments. Where (in what file) are these 2 arguments of the NetworkManager stored? | 17:00 |
| tonytraductor | it's a pretty good text editor | 17:01 |
| Yanick_ | tonytraductor, there is no ftp client on that page | 17:01 |
| mikechelen | Luigi, see http://www.ubuntu.com/products/whatIsubuntu/releases | 17:01 |
| tonytraductor | opps, should have been http://www.baldwinsoftware.com | 17:01 |
| tonytraductor | baldwinlinguas.com is my translation business | 17:01 |
| tonytraductor | sorry | 17:01 |
| tonytraductor | tclup is very, very basic, at this juncture | 17:01 |
| Luigi | So, will there be a way to upgrade directly from 8.04 to the next LTS release when it comes? | 17:01 |
| Yanick_ | tonytraductor, hehe | 17:02 |
| tonytraductor | you might just want to try something like kftp, really | 17:02 |
| Pici | Luigi: yes. | 17:02 |
| hateball | Luigi: Yes | 17:02 |
| Luigi | Ok, thanks | 17:02 |

| tonytraductor | the install script makes a dir .tclup in your /home, so it needs to know your username | 17:09 |
| Yanick_ | tonytraductor, good to know | 17:09 |
| tonytraductor | it puts configs, profiles in the .tclup (basically, saves your ftp server info) | 17:09 |
| IntoxicKat | Hi! | 17:09 |
| tonytraductor | of course, I should have just put something like uname=$(whoami) in there to do that automatically, huh..in the install script | 17:10 |

| tonytraductor | wait, I thought that was part of tcllib, but maybe not | 17:15 |
| IntoxicKat | -sipior. But i'm unsure, because i don't know if my hd will dead. | 17:15 |
| tonytraductor | actually, it shouldn't need Img, I don't know why I have package require Img in there | 17:15 |
| tonytraductor | probably because I copied some code over from a little tool I made to take a screenshot and upload it to my server | 17:15 |
| Yanick_ | tonytraductor, well, I can't start it because it says : "Error in startup script: can't find package Img" | 17:15 |
| tonytraductor | I wrote that one first | 17:16 |
| Yanick_ | tonytraductor, what package do I need to install? there is no "Img" | 17:16 |
| sipior | IntoxicKat: zero dtime entries generally represent minor filesystem "damage" which fsck will fix for you. | 17:16 |
| tonytraductor | gksu gedt /usr/local/bin/tclup then remove the line that says "package require Img" | 17:16 |

| Yanick_ | gotta go anyway | 17:23 |

| sjohn | Halitech: regarding whether it was closed, hum, I don't know... shouldn't linux be able to read it anyway, just as windows does? | 17:54 |

| Piet | billybigrigger: i guess you want raid1? | 18:12 |
| billybigrigger | raid1 | 18:12 |
| Hans | ok i try that | 18:12 |
| vmelo | hello, is there any channel available for packaging? | 18:13 |
| Halitech | MTecknology, ok, may need to remove the printer and reinstall it after installing hpijs | 18:13 |
| MTecknology | vmelo: -motu | 18:13 |
| vmelo | thanks | 18:13 |
| Hans | find -type f -mtime 3 hours???? | 18:13 |
| stepram | can be anything, normaly frezzes on homepage, which is the mozila page, since in re-installed it | 18:13 |
| Celauran | Hans: I haven't a clue. That's why I was suggesting looking based on creation time | 18:13 |
| stepram | Halitech, , can be anything, normally freezes on homepage, which is the mozila page, since in re-installed it | 18:13 |
| Halitech | stepram, ok, something sounds screwy with ff then | 18:13 |
| Hans | is "f" something stands for something? | 18:13 |
| bouncing | Is there a way to revert all the notifications in 9.04? I sure do hate them. | 18:14 |
| Mateo_ | Hi all ! | 18:14 |
| Celauran | Hans: file, as opposed to d for directory | 18:14 |
| erUSUL | vmelo: #ubuntu-motu | 18:14 |
| xangua | bouncing: remove notify osd and install notification daemon | 18:14 |
| MTecknology | Halitech: love you :) | 18:14 |
| Hans | hmm | 18:14 |
| MTecknology | Halitech: an amazingly easy fix :P | 18:14 |
| vmelo | thanks | 18:14 |
| stepram | Halitech, yeh some of the guys i work with suggested removing java because it doesn't work well with x64??? | 18:15 |
| Rockj | Ey. | 18:15 |
| Hans | anyway i have to go thanks | 18:15 |
| Rockj | My dad managed to install Ubuntu over his Windows install without knowing what he did :p | 18:15 |
| Piet | billybigrigger: so you probably have two or more physical disk drives. i'll assume you have two. in manual partitioning, create one or more partitions of the same on both disks, then choose the newly added partitions and configure them tobe "used for software raid". | 18:15 |
| Rockj | problem is that he chosed a password with ø æ å | 18:15 |
| Halitech | MTecknology, glad to hear that fixed it :) I usually check openprinting any time I'm setting up a printer | 18:15 |
| Etanol | how do I install file sharing that is compatible with windows on ubuntu? | 18:15 |
| tones | Etanol: samba | 18:15 |
| Halitech | stepram, java used to be a sore spot but it seems to be fine now | 18:15 |
| Rockj | and current keyboard is in english , is there a way to change this? | 18:15 |
| Rockj | select langauge on login screen only changes to norwegian gui, and not norwegian keyboard input | 18:16 |
| MTecknology | Halitech: thanks :) | 18:16 |
| hwilde | Help my mouse just got confined to only the right xscreen. I can't go back to the other one (which is the main window) | 18:16 |
| Rockj | so I need my dad to be able to logon at Ubuntu so I can get him to install ssh so I can figure out how much damage he managed todo and if he lost any work-files and so on :p | 18:16 |
| tones | Etanol: me again, install samba using apt and that should enable a virtual "windows network" folder in nautilus | 18:16 |
| Halitech | Rockj, boot into single user mode and reset the user password? | 18:16 |
| bouncing | xangua: What's the osd package? | 18:16 |
| stepram | Halitech, my java is still screwed cant get simplehelp to work on it, have to use IE6 on wine ! | 18:17 |
| Piet | billybigrigger: do that for bothdrives. then, on top of the selections you can make on that partitioning overview screen, select the option to setup software raid. select raid1, and select the partitions you want to join into the raid. | 18:17 |
| xangua | bouncing: the fancy new notifications | 18:17 |
| Mateo_ | I have some troubles with gedit... I just imported some xml file in gedit, and i have some caracters (square with 0085 or 0092 in it)... it's a rss problem of gedit thing ? | 18:17 |
| Rockj | Halitech: I can try that I guess | 18:17 |
| Halitech | stepram, maybe try removing it then | 18:17 |
| Mateo_ | by the way, it's a french rss file | 18:17 |
| ubuntistas | any update for network manager ? i got fed up with this crap | 18:18 |
| Etanol | tones: if I want to share a drive then? do I mount the drive into the folder? | 18:18 |
| Etanol | ah nvm | 18:18 |
| Etanol | installed a gui | 18:18 |
| bouncing | xangua: I mean there is no "osd" package -- what should I be looking for? | 18:18 |
| hwilde | !mount > Etanol | 18:18 |
| ubottu | Etanol, please see my private message | 18:18 |
| tones | Etanol: i think someone else just answered that... | 18:18 |
| Rockj | does grub always show in bootup Halitech ? | 18:18 |
| Piet | billybigrigger: finally, you'll have a new object in the partitioning overview which is the software raid1, select that and create file systems on those. that's it. | 18:18 |
| stepram | did it earlier but still froze, just used the package manager, no change, only plug ins are flash player and google toolbar | 18:19 |
| Halitech | Rockj, don't think so, think you need to hit ESC when its booting and says press ESC to enter grub | 18:19 |
| hwilde | Help my mouse just got confined to only the right xscreen. I can't go back to the other one (which is the main window) | 18:19 |
| middleman | Can I generate a install script for all the packages installed on a system that is broken and I have booted from a live cd on? | 18:19 |
| xangua | bouncing: i notify-osd - daemon that displays passive pop-up notifications | 18:19 |
| stepram | Halitech, did it earlier but still froze, just used the package manager, no change, only plug ins are flash player and google toolbar | 18:19 |
| hwilde | !clone > middleman | 18:19 |
| ubottu | middleman, please see my private message | 18:19 |
| bouncing | xangua: Ah, notify-osd... Thanks! | 18:19 |
| steve_ | Is there a way to allow users that aren't the owner of a file to change permissions of that file? | 18:20 |
| billybigrigger | Piet, thanks, gimme a sec on the phone | 18:20 |
| Halitech | stepram, maybe try disabling flash plugin? | 18:20 |
| Piet | Mateo_: the file contains characters that the font you use in gedit is not able to display correctly. | 18:20 |
| Rockj | Halitech: oki, he just told me "ohh that one, seen that all the time" | 18:20 |
| Rockj | sighs :p | 18:20 |
| TheAncientGoat | Hey guys, is there a way for 2 users to use the same desktop session at once (for example I log in to a remote desktop, and the desktop user himself is still able to move a seperate cursor) | 18:20 |
| tones | Rockj: http://www.ubuntugeek.com/how-to-recover-password-under-ubuntu.html | 18:20 |
| LietKynes | middleman, you could also see what's in /var/cache/apt/archives | 18:20 |
| Piet | billybigrigger: sure | 18:21 |
| Piet | Mateo_: the number you see in the square bracket is the hexadecimal code for the character it is unable to display | 18:21 |
| mgph | hi everyone ! can I ask one thing ? | 18:22 |
| Piet | Mateo_: you can try to make gedit use a different font which knows how to display those characters | 18:22 |
| unixluser | hello. this is a bit offtopic, but do u guys know how to generate single arrow version of » ? | 18:22 |
| ubuntistas | any update for network manager ? i got fed up with this crap | 18:22 |
| unixluser | and it's opposite direction? | 18:22 |
| Piet | mgph: NO! ;-) just kidding | 18:22 |
| Mateo_ | Piet, yep, \x85 by example ... | 18:22 |
| mgph | every time I open synaptic package manager or other apps supposed for only admins...it's asking passwords | 18:22 |
| stepram | Halitech, thanks will try that tonight, time to head home for me, thanks for your help. | 18:22 |
| Tikal | hi, i need some help, anybody please? | 18:22 |
| Mateo_ | Piet: ok, i'm going to give it a try :) | 18:22 |
| unixluser | mgph: you already asked your q. NEXT! | 18:22 |
| Halitech | stepram, welcome and good luck :) | 18:22 |
| mgph | how can I avoid it > | 18:23 |
| mgph | ?* | 18:23 |
| Rockj | tones, Halitech : can usb keyboards be problemtic to enter grub with when trying to enter ESC. ? | 18:23 |
| ubuntistas | any update for network manager ? i got fed up with this crap | 18:23 |
| Rockj | I know usb keyboard can be an issue when entering bios for example | 18:23 |
| Rockj | not sure about grub-stage tho | 18:23 |
| Piet | Mateo_: alright, good luck. you can look at unicode.org (i think) where it should say what this character is and which character set it belongs to | 18:23 |
| deever | anyone here who brought an m-audio delta66 to work in intrepid? | 18:23 |
| Rockj | he got huge issues getting into grub prompt. | 18:23 |
| tones | Rockj: you shouldnt usually need to press esc | 18:23 |
| Halitech | mgph, its supposed to as you need admin rights to do updates | 18:23 |
| Tikal | how install webcam Microdia, with ID 0c45:627b Microdia PC Camera (SN9C201) | 18:23 |
| === wzj is now known as ultidesp | ||
| mgph | Piet: :D | 18:23 |
| Tikal | who knows? | 18:24 |
| Halitech | Rockj, if the BIOS is set up with legacy USB support then no | 18:24 |
| Rockj | tones: told him to plug in old orginal keyboard if usb-keyboard is the issue. | 18:24 |
| unixluser | hello. this is a bit offtopic, but do u guys know how to generate single arrow version of » ? and in the opposite direction too? | 18:24 |
| ubuntistas | any update for network manager ? i got fed up with this crap | 18:24 |
| tones | Rockj: ok. the gist is; just select the ubuntu boot option, press e, select the kernel line, press e, and append "rw init=/bin/bash" | 18:24 |
| Rockj | he says there isn't any "boot options" | 18:24 |
| moxfalder | install MOUNTMANAGER and can run ! How to start this ? | 18:24 |
| Piet | unixluser: i assume you mean these? < > | 18:25 |
| Rockj | im trying to get him to grub... for me it looks like he only gets the grub without userinterface prompt | 18:25 |
| unixluser | Piet: no, smaller arrows | 18:25 |
| Rockj | that you normally have if you only have 1 OS | 18:25 |
| AlsaPCM | hi, does any one play trackmania in wine ? | 18:25 |
| mgph | Halitech: yes but is there any other ways to avoid it? I just want to get one-time password for the whole session until restart | 18:25 |
| tones | Rockj: it boots straight into ubuntu? thats a problem | 18:25 |
| Piet | unixluser: also known as "lesser than" and "greater than" | 18:25 |
| Rockj | which means he atleast managed to write over his orginal OS :p | 18:25 |
| Rockj | *laughs* | 18:25 |
| Piet | unixluser: ah the french single quotes | 18:25 |
| sjohn | Halitech: thanks, your idea was helpful in the end... it was not that the DVD was not closed, but that it had two sessions (even though one was essentially empty), and then I found an obscure mount option which just mounts the last session, which worked... | 18:25 |
| tones | Rockj: download "super grub cd" and boot into that, portable grub :P | 18:26 |
| Piet | unixluser: that will be some elevated character set, i don't think this is contained in every font. | 18:26 |
| Halitech | mgph, not that I know of without making yourself root | 18:26 |
| tones | Rockj: assuming you still have a working computer hence you being on irc | 18:26 |
| Halitech | sjohn, glad to hear you got it sorted :) | 18:26 |
| Dr_Willis | the grub menu.lst might have the 'hidden' option set if Ubuntu is the only OS on the system. (or it was when it was installed) | 18:26 |
| Rockj | tones: you want me to try make my dad use that? hahaha. He didn't even know how he managed to install ubuntu ;D | 18:26 |
| billybigrigger | Piet, ok i have 2 identical 500gb seagate sata drives | 18:26 |
| Rockj | im like ...8 hours drive away from him | 18:26 |
| Rockj | ;p | 18:26 |
| billybigrigger | Piet, setup ext3 on each drive | 18:26 |
| billybigrigger | ?? | 18:26 |
| mgph | Halitech: thanks | 18:27 |
| tones | Rockj: haha, my bad. im stuck for ideas then. | 18:27 |
| billybigrigger | Piet, manualy edit paritions | 18:27 |
| heri_ | alguien españpol por ai | 18:27 |
| sjohn | Halitech: are you a regular helper here? | 18:27 |
| churl | I'm getting: DeprecationWarning: the md5 module is deprecated; use hashlib instead. is this still being worked out? | 18:27 |
| Halitech | sjohn, not really, just pop in when the forums are slow | 18:27 |
| sjohn | ah, ok | 18:27 |
| Piet | unixluser: some text processing applications, not unlinke openoffice, support replacing 'foo' by the <foo> you want automatically. | 18:28 |
| mgph | btw I am quite newbie to Linux/Ubuntu and currently reading "A Practical Guide to Ubuntu/Linux" by Mark G. Sobell to speed up my knowledge | 18:28 |
| Rockj | managed to get him into grub with old keyboard ;) | 18:28 |
| ubuntistas | any update for network manager ? i got fed up with this crap | 18:28 |
| tones | Rockj: hes at a grub prompt? | 18:28 |
| Halitech | ubuntistas, have you tried WICD? | 18:28 |
| Freedom_ | Can anyone help me answer some permissions+proftpd questions? | 18:28 |
| ubuntistas | no | 18:28 |
| mgph | anyone wanna share your opinion for ubuntu books for me to speed up about the OS ? | 18:28 |
| tones | Rockj: is it the command line prompt or the boot selection menu? | 18:29 |
| Rockj | got under control | 18:29 |
| unixluser | Piet: do you know a google keyword i can use to get close? | 18:29 |
| unixluser | Piet: ascii charset? | 18:29 |
| Rockj | 2 sec, just a bit difficult to make him type things over phone ;) | 18:29 |
| Rockj | hehe | 18:29 |
| Rockj | he's not the quickest typer | 18:29 |
| billybigrigger | Piet, i created an ext3 partition on each drive, where do i configure them to use software raid? | 18:29 |
| tones | Rockj: haha ok | 18:29 |
| Piet | unixluser: if you want those characters anywhere else, either change your keyboard layout (using the 'keyboard' menu item from system menu) to map keys to these characters or use a character table (which i think can also be found in gnome/ubuntu menu by default under accessories) | 18:29 |
| vices | which distro has wallpaper_tray ? | 18:29 |
| bullit | what is the dutch ubuntu channel ? | 18:29 |
| vices | repo* | 18:30 |
| unixluser | â¹ | 18:30 |
| Piet | unixluser: maybe something along the lines of: linux french single quotes | 18:30 |
| * GaPx87 says hey.. | 18:30 | |
| eseven73 | #ubuntu-nl maybe | 18:30 |
| Piet | billybigrigger: ext3 is a file system, which is at least one layer below the parition | 18:31 |
| moxfalder | MountManager don't want start ! How to fix this ? | 18:31 |
| billybigrigger | Piet, i can't see any partition properties or anything | 18:31 |
| unixluser | Piet: thanks. can you see these: ⹠« | 18:31 |
| mlissner | Hi, I have a question about /tmp | 18:31 |
| mlissner | Is it true that anybody can read anything that's in there? | 18:32 |
| unixluser | Piet: single quote appears to be a lot smaller than double. must be a font limitation | 18:32 |
| Dr_Willis | !find mountmanager | 18:32 |
| ubottu | Found: mountmanager | 18:32 |
| Dr_Willis | !info mountmanager | 18:32 |
| ubottu | mountmanager (source: mountmanager): User-friendly management of disks and partitions. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.2.6-0ubuntu2 (jaunty), package size 539 kB, installed size 1956 kB | 18:32 |
| Piet | billybigrigger: what you want is the following layering: [disk a: partition 1, disk b: partition 1] -> raid 1 -> ext3 file system | 18:32 |
| SirErugor | mlissner, %> ls -l / | grep tmp 19:32:18 | 18:32 |
| SirErugor | drwxrwxrwt 15 root root 4096 2009-05-11 19:30 tmp/ | 18:32 |
| Dr_Willis | moxfalder: try from a terminal 'gksu mountmanager ' | 18:32 |
| tones | mlissner: depends what the file and parent folder permissions are | 18:32 |
| SirErugor | ofc.. :) | 18:32 |
| billybigrigger | Piet, yeah, have you ever done this on the graphical 9.04 install? cause i don't see any options for raid here | 18:33 |
| enlil | Is there a way to force the switch to a given screen resolution? | 18:33 |
| wad | Whenever I double-click a video file on the desktop, Ubuntu launches totem, which doesn't work with my compiz, and doesn't seem to have the proper settings available to make it work. Mplayer, however, works. No awful flicker. But there seems to be no way to make it be the default video player. I've tried the Preferred Applications setting, makes no difference. I've tried editing /etc/gnome/defaults.list, still nothing. Ideas? | 18:33 |
| billybigrigger | Piet, do i have to make logical or primary partitions? | 18:33 |
| mlissner | tones: right. My permissions skills seem to be getting rusty...this makes sense. | 18:33 |
| Piet | unixluser: i can see a lower case "a" with circonflex, a hey code 0x0080, a superscript 1, an upper case "a" with circonflex and a french double quote indicating start of the quotation. | 18:34 |
| billybigrigger | Piet, there is 0 options for raid anywhere on this installer | 18:34 |
| moxfalder | Dr_Willis: only on terminal show detected storages, but GUI don't want start ! | 18:34 |
| tones | mlissner: to see the permissions of an object just use "ls -l %object%" and to change use the guide in "man chmod" | 18:34 |
| Piet | billybigrigger: i have never used the graphical installer. that'S why i suggested using the alternative ;-) | 18:34 |
| billybigrigger | unless i have to give both disks/partitions the same logical fs and the same mount point | 18:34 |
| billybigrigger | Piet, aight | 18:35 |
| * billybigrigger downloads alternate install disk | 18:35 | |
| billybigrigger | :P | 18:35 |
| Darael | mgph: apologies for the delay - you could set timestamp_timeout in /etc/sudoers (use "sudo visudo") to something less than 0 - this makes the timestamp never expire - and add "sudo -K" to your logout script to remove the timestamp when you log out, forcing it to expire | 18:35 |
| pascal | !fr | 18:35 |
| ubottu | Ce canal est en anglais uniquement. Si vous avez besoin d'aide ou voulez discuter en francais, merci de rejoindre #ubuntu-fr | 18:35 |
| Dr_Willis | moxfalder: it segfaults here.. looks like the program is broken, or somthing weird... | 18:35 |
| mlissner | tones: right. I was just noticing the way thunderbird uses /tmp to hold pictures. It's a privacy problem because anybody can see how many pictures another user has opened with thunderbird. | 18:35 |
| vices | I don't get it, do ubuntu users in this time period just not care about automatic background switching? | 18:35 |
| Piet | billybigrigger: you have to make partitions, it does not matter (at least not for whether or not you can create a raid on top of them) whether they are primary or logical. if in doubt, select primary. | 18:35 |
| Dr_Willis | moxfalder: check/read the man pages.. i dont see where it has a GUI | 18:36 |
| mgph | Darael: ahh ok thanks alot for your contribution :) | 18:36 |
| tones | mlissner: all you can do there is fiddle with thunderbird, cause making /tmp a root-only folder will make ubuntu and several progams cry | 18:36 |
| moxfalder | Dr_Willis: Qt as dependencies to mountmanager installed too ! | 18:37 |
| mlissner | tones: yeah. that and file a bug against t-bird. | 18:37 |
| moxfalder | Dr_Willis: in system has icon for launching, but can't start ! | 18:37 |
| tones | mlissner: haha, yes, that too | 18:37 |
| moxfalder | Dr_Willis: strange . | 18:37 |
| fbc-mx | This IPV6 problem is driving me crazy. Anyone found a fix to disable IPV6 in Jaunty? | 18:37 |
| wad | IPv6 is yummy. We need more of it. | 18:38 |
| Kamilion | Got a headless ubuntu jaunty amd64 box, tried setting /etc/default/bootlogd to Yes, still not getting any logs. Did some googling. bootlogd's in sysvinit, which replaces upstart and all the goodies. So, where's upstart log the service messages to? | 18:38 |
| Rockj | hoho, dad managed to use cat /etc/passwd and passwd command. This is progression :p | 18:39 |
| sacarlson | Kamilion: all the logs I know are in /var/log | 18:39 |
| moxfalder | Dr_Willis: Segmentation fault... | 18:40 |
| Kamilion | yeah, but /var/log/boot is still empty. that's where bootlogd normally dumps it's logs. | 18:40 |
| moxfalder | Dr_Willis: what next ! this is critical, i need a warring ??? | 18:40 |
| mlissner | tones: ah ha, it's been found before: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=377630 | 18:40 |
| sysdoc | fbc-mx, there is a post on how to turn off IPv6 in the forums | 18:41 |
| ubuntistas | why isn't wicd shown in the panel? i want to be connected automaticallywhen i log in any clue? | 18:41 |
| deever | anyone here who brought an m-audio delta66 to work in intrepid? | 18:41 |
| tones | mlissner: ah, so you arent the only grumpy person here ;) | 18:42 |
| noor | My printer cuts off the right side of the page even when I am printing a test page | 18:42 |
| coz_ | noor, that sounds more like the printer | 18:42 |
| CrocoJet | hi for all | 18:43 |
| fbc-mx | sysdoc, yes, but does it work?? there are many posts in the forums about it.. but none of them are confirmed working.. I've tried about 5 methods already an none of them work. | 18:43 |
| mlissner | tones: yeah, it's annoying when programmers make obvious mistakes. This one in particular seems quite avoidable. There's even a patch in the bug...though it hasn't been folded into trunk for over a year. | 18:43 |
| baltuna | I have a question, I can't write in some chats(java..) and I don't know why. I could write with ubuntu 8.10 but not with 9.04. Sometimes(I don't know ehn) i can write. Any sugerence? | 18:43 |
| noor | coz_: I've been using it in Ubuntu for more than a year, I only noticed this issue recently. I assume its something I did or something an update did | 18:43 |
| frucki | hey, i looked over a wiki entry and noticed its possible to start a second xserver - for example to run a fullscreen game . ist it possible to control that second xserver with a seperate mouse and keyboard? | 18:43 |
| rhsanborn | I'm trying to x-forward a web session over ssh tunnel on a DSL line... Can anyone recommend a relatively lightweight browser that supports graphics? i.e. no lynx | 18:43 |
| sysdoc | fbc-mx, dunno if they work or not... What are the problems that your having? | 18:44 |
| coz_ | noor, well the obvious is weather or not the "roller" is clean | 18:44 |
| tones | mlissner: in all fairness, they do have to concentrate on making sure the functions and classes click together, but yes i think this is a case of a lack of common sense | 18:44 |
| KB1JWQ | rhsanborn: Why a "lightweight" browser? | 18:44 |
| Kamilion | rhsanborn: I'd suggest Midori, based on webkit. | 18:44 |
| ubuntistas | why isn't wicd shown in the panel? i want to be connected automaticallywhen i log in any clue? | 18:44 |
| rhsanborn | KB1JWQ: Hoping it isn't as slow as firefox over the slow link | 18:44 |
| shadeslayer | yep,midori is nice | 18:44 |
| rhsanborn | Kamilion: I will try that, ty. | 18:45 |
| tones | rhsanborn: lynx? | 18:45 |
| Kamilion | yw | 18:45 |
| CrocoJet | I am using ubuntu 9.04 with partition type ext4. If I have one file "a.txt" and I do these commands: sudo chmod 000 a.txt and sudo chown root:root a.txt After using this command: rm a.txt ... show: rm: remove write-protected regular file `a.txt'? yes + <ENTER> and no more file. Is this correct ? | 18:45 |
| rhsanborn | KB1JWQ: firefox is pretty much unusable. | 18:45 |
| ubuntistas | what's script in wicd? | 18:45 |
| noor | coz_: Well, actually its as though the document is bigger than the paper. Its cuts off at what I assume is the normal margin | 18:45 |

| CrocoJet | someone here use ext4 part type in Ubuntu 9.04? | 18:47 |
| Kamilion | rhsanborn: I've had pretty good results with using nomachine's nxclient and freenx from the PPAs. Firefox runs pretty good even over a slow DSL line from the x protocol compression. It's basically doing what you're already doing, setting up a X server over a ssh tunnel. | 18:47 |
| fbc-mx | sysdoc, it's not firefox specific... it happens with torrents, it happesns with any heavy wireless traffic at all.. | 18:47 |

| fbc-mx | sysdoc, I've scoured the web.. there isn't a publish solution that works. There has to be someone here smart enough about the inner workings that may know how to disable this in Jaunty. | 18:52 |

| ptietjens | autofs deals with the mounts. | 19:43 |
| limecat | or will it cause bad things? | 19:43 |
| Darael | ptietjens: if the laptops are identical, you could install on one, take a disk image, and drop it on all the others. | 19:43 |

| armence | hello all, I am on a Wireless LAN which had a printer and a scanner on it. How can I use those? | 19:51 |
| lexr | justin__: on my sound card, I have capture, capture1 etc, and i had to unmute microphone tobe able to use it. It is on the second tab. have you checked all the checkboxes in the prefs? | 19:52 |
| frucki | mbeierl: no, that would have been the next question ;( | 19:52 |
| erbish | anyone know any ncurse/terminal-based tool for administering ACLs ? | 19:53 |
| mbeierl | frucki: have you got dual display working at all yet? | 19:53 |
| imi | ok thx. bye | 19:53 |
| mbeierl | frucki: gfx: - that's an ATI card? | 19:53 |
| armence | I am on a Wireless LAN which had a printer and a scanner on it. How can I setup ubuntu to use those? | 19:53 |
| justin__ | yup, master is checked, and i made sure it wasn't muted | 19:53 |
| sacarlson | lexr: justin__: I checked all the boxes and tried every posible setting in the mixer without success in record but I can still talk on skype. | 19:54 |
| ScottG | Something is wrong with alsa. Could someone help: http://privatepaste.com/dfWhlPxl6M | 19:54 |
| ptietjens | Sweet, that actually works well. | 19:54 |
| justin__ | well i tried usin it on vent and i get squat for input | 19:54 |
| lexr | mhm, ok, try the mic in other app | 19:55 |
| wad | Whenever I double-click a video file on the desktop, Ubuntu launches totem, which doesn't work with my compiz, and doesn't seem to have the proper settings available to make it work. Mplayer, however, works. No awful flicker. But there seems to be no way to make it be the default video player. I've tried the Preferred Applications setting, makes no difference. I've tried editing /etc/gnome/defaults.list, still nothing. Ideas? | 19:56 |
| frucki | mbeierl: grafix, or smth else, thought its english typo | 19:56 |
| justin__ | ahh, ok, got it! had to switch it to the front mic input, not mic | 19:56 |
| frucki | mbeierl: well, iam currently running ati hd 4870 - anyways the driver, even catalyst 9.4 sucks | 19:56 |
| gonzojive | anyone have experience installing Ubuntu on a software raid 1 root? | 19:57 |
| mbeierl | frucki: ok, does catalyst (bad as it is) give you an option for multi-display that sets up two independent displays? | 19:57 |
| frucki | mbeierl: didnt try dual display, the driver even fails to fully scale the desktop to 1920x1080 on my 40" tv - beside that i didnt know if multi user setup is possible | 19:57 |
| pepperjack | wad: just right-click and change what it opens with | 19:57 |
| whileimhere | Hi. I have taken a 2 gig thumbdrive and ran the make USB startup disc creator on it. I have gone into my laptops bios and told it to boot via removeable devices first. Still a no go. Anyone good with this stuff? | 19:57 |
| wad | pepperjack, thanks, I'll try it! | 19:57 |
| Darael | wad: you have to change it individually for each file type. This basically involves right-clicking the file, properties, open with tab. | 19:57 |
| frucki | mbeierl: i at least saw that option in amdccc | 19:58 |
| pepperjack | whileimhere: it just boots normally? | 19:58 |
| lucax | how can i install e17 on ubuntu 9.04? | 19:58 |
| mbeierl | frucki: it technically is. So, the idea is to get catalyst to generate an xorg.conf file for you that has the syntax to enable the two separate pipes in the card as two servers | 19:58 |
| wad | Darael, it worked!! Thanks, you and pepperjack! | 19:59 |
| mbeierl | frucki: once that framework is in place, it is merely a matter of assigning mouse 1 and keyboard 1 to x server 1, display 1, then mouse 2, keyboard 2 to x 2... | 19:59 |
| frucki | mbeierl: ah ok, so after that i can map the second mice/keyboard to the second xserver | 19:59 |
| whileimhere | It tells me there is no boot device. I usually turn the HD off as an option. | 19:59 |
| Darael | wad: be warned you have to change it separately for different file types | 20:00 |
| frucki | mbeierl: ah, ok! | 20:00 |
| scarface3 | Hi, all! I have a question, how can I do for automatic login and lock screen in ubuntu? I succed in autologin and I have added a script which sleep for 10 seconds and then launches the command "gnome-screensaver-command -l", but it doesn't work.Can someone tell me why??? | 20:00 |
| lucax | !e17 | 20:00 |
| ubottu | 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. | 20:00 |
| mbeierl | frucki: as simple as that - at least that's the way I see it | 20:00 |

| wad | Darael, yeah, I got it. Where on earth does it store these settings, any ideas? | 20:00 |
| Darael | wad: no idea | 20:01 |
| billybigrigger | carick, because #grub suggests i install grub2 to fix my error 15 | 20:01 |
| * wad nods. And it would be nice if the Preferred Applications control actually worked, too. *shrug* | 20:01 | |

| _UsUrPeR_ | is anyone in here familiar with UFW? | 20:03 |
| Darael | resno: if you press alt+f2 and type "gksu nautilus" you can get a root file browser window with which you can edit files on / | 20:03 |

| frucki | mbeierl: hm well, thanks for the great explanation. | 20:05 |
| CrChTiGeR | my question is if i should try upgrading to jaunty from intrepix with an ATI card (X1200) , it gave me a warning about restricted drivers, does that mean it wont work or should i try the open source drivers FIRST before upgrading? | 20:05 |
| Darael | CrChTiGeR: you may lose some or all of your ability to use 3d acceleration if you upgrade. | 20:05 |
| resno | carick: i would use terminal, but i am not good enough to complete what i am trying to do. | 20:06 |
| frucki | mbeierl: would you say switching to nvidia is a good solution to get my project flawlessly done? | 20:06 |
| mbeierl | frucki: hope that it's good enough to make it all work. | 20:06 |
| carick | resno: which is what | 20:06 |
| resno | Darael: i tried that and it wont come up | 20:06 |
| mbeierl | frucki: I can help more with nvidia than ati just due to my having hardware | 20:06 |
| scarface3 | Is there a method to autolock screen after autologin?? | 20:06 |
| bogart | erUSUL: rootfs / rootfs rw 0 0 | 20:06 |
| mbeierl | frucki: not sure if one vs. the other has any technical advantage | 20:06 |
| CrChTiGeR | Darael, should i uninstall the restricted drivers and install open source BEFORE upgrading? or will it be the same? | 20:06 |
| billybigrigger | sacarlson, k trying supergrubdisk now | 20:06 |

| tinjaw | trying to compile a driver. I see there are some differences in the header files. I linked audoconf.h as config.h and now I am looking for the match for devfs_fs_kernel.h | 20:08 |
| mbeierl | frucki: right! That was it - dual screen for gaming | 20:08 |
| mzz | linduxed: it'll figure out z automagically, but you need f (it's waiting for you to supply the file on stdin without that) | 20:08 |
| frucki | mbeierl: oh, thats what you meant, yeah | 20:09 |
| Darael | CrChTiGeR: just to clarify - if need be, the upgrader will switch your drivers for you. Obviously, if it doesn't but you have trouble, you can just switch back to the open source drivers | 20:09 |
| linduxed | ranf: mzz: that worked | 20:09 |

| nigtv | andresmh: ive had to change it through system > preferences > keyboard shortcuts | 20:13 |

| Shadow121 | call me sir god dammit | 20:14 |

| Threetimes | whileimhere: try sudo lshw, somewhere at the top | 20:20 |

| nigtv | blixt: what I mean is that if you dont need root privs to edit a file, then you shouldnt sudo gedit it, and if you do need them, then you would have to. As long as you dont sudo gedit a file that doesnt need root privs nothing should 'change' on you. But if you sudo gedit a file that doesnt exist yet (i.e. create one) then, yea, it will need root privs to be accessed again unless you chmod it | 20:21 |

| Spoom | hi folks, for whatever reason, after upgrading to jaunty, evolution seems to freeze for about a minute when i click the reply button, any ideas? my issue is basically similar to this: http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-1088131.html , only there were no suggestions given there other than to create a new evolution profile, which i'd rather not do as it would need to download all my mail again (and there is... a lot) | 20:22 |
| mbeierl | tryptam: so my line reads like so: Option "TwinViewXineramaInfoOrder" "DFP-0" which makes DFP-0 (laptop) the primary | 20:22 |
| nigtv | verteks: oh geez wish i could remember. I believe that it has been changed to a different location, but i cant rememeber. | 20:22 |
| blixt | where in what log should i look for the reason of the beep? | 20:22 |
| tryptam | mbeier: hm.. ok. i had them as seperate X screens and xinerama enabled | 20:22 |
| Threetimes | whileimhere: if you do sudo lshw -heml you get something like this [http://peter-server.homelinux.net/lshw.new.html] (look at the 3rd yellow box) | 20:22 |
| bin1010 | Darael: that sorts the data in the columns....I want to sort the entire columns based on string values in row 1 for that column | 20:22 |
| nigtv | I had that problem as well a while back, it is referenced as the incorrect location all over the web | 20:22 |
| Celauran | Spoom: You should be able to backup your current profile, create a new one, then manually copy the email without downloading it again | 20:22 |
| sacarlson | chalcedony: if you want the system to remember for you there is keychain | 20:22 |
| Darael | chalcedony: there's several password managers in the repositories... just search "password" in add/remove programs | 20:23 |
| mbeierl | piotr__ ? still here? | 20:23 |
| nigtv | it doesnt get created there i believe, at least not in any new ubu's, leme see if i can find it | 20:23 |
| Soulwarp | i have a problem installing a new version of glib from source | 20:23 |
| Piet | myk_robinson: recalibrating the battery will help in terms of correctly knowing when the power really wears off. batteries which have run for a long time have memory effect and/or similar other effects which can mkae the system believe that power wears off earlier than it actually does. | 20:23 |
| Darael | bin1010: I know - If you tell it to sort by row 1 after changing the direction in the options tab you should get what you're after. | 20:23 |
| frucki | mbeierl: iam not that kind of a technics freak, but how can i add a second video card if mainboard only has 1x pcie x16 slot? | 20:23 |
| chalcedony | wow sounds like other people have had this problem :) | 20:24 |
| mbeierl | tryptam: oh I see. I use the TwinView option as that gives me 3d acceleration for both screens | 20:24 |
| armence | Hey all, I have a scanner shared on a LAN, how can I get ubuntu to see that scanner and use it? | 20:24 |

| mbeierl | frucki: well, that makes it harder for sure. I've gotta run soon, but I'll think about it. if I think of anything and see you here, I'll let you know | 20:25 |
| nigtv | verteks: looks like it could be a could of places, you could try a "sudo find / -iname "*js0*" and see, it should either be /dev/input/js0 or /dev/js0 | 20:25 |
| vick | is there an editor with synonyms in linux ? | 20:25 |

| BlueBird | Darael, or is 2.6.27-11 the default intrepid one ? | 20:37 |
| Darael | try the same package but with the kernel version you'll get after the upgrade in the name, if you see what I mean? | 20:38 |
| dassouki | TAiL-: Gnome themes .. system appearance .. theme | 20:38 |
| sacarlson | CommanderCool: I think it is displayed as part of iwconfig or ifconfig, you can also see it in the lsmod module list | 20:38 |
| Piet | Zathara, CommanderCool: run: sudo lspci and pastebin the output, then put the url here | 20:38 |
| BlueBird | Darael, I think that is the right kernel actually , but I kinda want to know | 20:38 |
| bobsaccamano | hi..im having problems installing nagois on ubuntu intrepid..anyone succesfully done it? | 20:38 |
| TAiL- | dassouki: take a look at fluxbox.. we'll it's not gnome. but very light | 20:38 |
| Piet | billybigrigger_: hope so | 20:38 |
| BlueBird | Darael, since the driver will not work without the right kernel image I assume | 20:38 |
| Darael | BlueBird: I'm not sure what the default intrepid one is, but if you install using update-manager you should get the lateest, and that package is what the metapackage for the latest points to... if you can follow that | 20:39 |
| CommanderCool | Piet: its Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless 3945ABG | 20:39 |
| billybigrigger_ | Piet::: i followed your links to setting up raid | 20:39 |
| dassouki | TAiL-: well thanks for the advice, i'd like to stick with Gnome, all i want is really small fonts zero borders, small buttons, and 2 or 3 color theme, with no added gunk | 20:39 |

| Darael | BlueBird: when you ask it to upgrade, it should say what packages are to be installed - it's worth checking that the 2.6.27-11-generic kernel image is in there, but yes, it should | 20:40 |
| BlueBird | Darael, I'll give it a try, worst case I will have to go fix it at work tomorrow | 20:41 |

| BlueBird | Darael, well it CLAIMS it will install it at least | 20:43 |
| Celauran | dassouki: http://art.gnome.org might also be worth a look | 20:43 |
| Piet | billybigrigger_: if it's not there, something went wrong or you put another layer btween the raid and the file system | 20:43 |
| JediMaster | edited fstab and a few things, apt-get upgraded, ran grub and rebooted | 20:43 |
| aar | jetienne, phatch is a simple image editor (originally designed for batch editing) | 20:44 |
| Darael | BlueBird: should be pretty well good to go, then | 20:44 |
| JediMaster | then made the old root partition the /home/ partition of the new machine | 20:44 |
| BlueBird | Darael, should probably kill xchat before it starts upgrading | 20:44 |

| CommanderCool | sacarlson: there is no such line - might it be iwl3945 or mac80211? if yes which of both? | 20:44 |
| Darael | BlueBird: just make sure that after you upgrade you install the relevant metapackage so that the backport gets updated with the kernel | 20:44 |
| JediMaster | how viable is that stratergy to do a Fedora Core 4 to Ubunutu 9.04 "upgrade"? =) | 20:44 |

| Celauran | Spoom: Hang on, I'm fiddling with my evo right now | 20:58 |
| aar | CooPs, the diference is that by doing so you're using the ATI proprietary (i.e. not open source) driver, rather than the generic, non-proprietary one. | 20:58 |
| xuacu | Bones | 20:58 |
| CooPs | aar: becouse checking the ballon box made it install additional packages (xorg-driver-fglrx-dev ) which I found confusing as I had already installed ati drivers | 20:58 |

| CooPs | when I logged in afterwards | 21:01 |
| Spoom | Celauran, thanks | 21:01 |
| aar | CooPs, the bottom line is: the safe option is the non-proprietary one. the proprietary version might give you more functionality, butit's also more prone to messing up the system, esp. after upgrades etc. | 21:01 |

Please note that some people find it rude to be sent a PM without being asked for permission to do so first. | 21:03 |
| aar | CooPs, it should. whether they work OK or not is a different matter. ATI do not write code for ubuntu, and ubuntu can't check ati code because it's not open source. | 21:03 |

| CooPs | yeah, both works , I'm just wondering if there's a potential conflict by checking the enable box and installing the drivers yourself | 21:04 |
| aar | CooPs, the box tells you that you have a non-proprietary driver installed and asks you whether you want the proprietary one. | 21:04 |
| Piet | yowshi: that was meant to say: vlc or mencoder, i would think | 21:04 |

| bobbyd | DarkRavin: I had that once, it's something to do with the default action for directories getting screwed up I think | 21:18 |
| NismoTie | sorry yeah | 21:18 |
| DarkRavin | the new one i just upgraded | 21:18 |
| bobbyd | DarkRavin: it's a nautilus problem | 21:18 |
| homeskill | the1corrupted /etc/init.d/apache2 reload | 21:18 |
| DarkRavin | so how do i fix it | 21:18 |
| the1corrupted | Celauran IT said something about unable to reliably determine the server's fully qualified domain name... | 21:19 |
| bobbyd | DarkRavin: I'm trying to remember :) | 21:19 |
| Celauran | the1corrupted: That's fine, don't worry about that | 21:19 |
| aar | DarkRavin, try right-click on the file, go to Properties, Open With, and select the default application. | 21:19 |
| Piet | homeskill: it would say the same thing, even though it's actually a WAN, not a LAN | 21:19 |

| limecat | i just did something really bad, and i need to know if ic an recover any data off this drive | 21:19 |
| DarkRavin | tried that and when i right click it it just opens music player | 21:20 |
| limecat | i dd'd the 100meg boot drive image over the root drive :| | 21:20 |
| guntbert | tones: that seems to be a qurstion for #ubuntu-offtopic :-) | 21:20 |
| homeskill | the1corrupted that's because you need to set the ServerName in /etc/apache2/apache2.conf to something like "localhost" | 21:20 |
| guntbert | *question | 21:20 |
| pepperjack | !recover > limecat | 21:20 |
| ubottu | limecat, please see my private message | 21:20 |
| limecat | and i need to see if i can recover some scripts off the root drive--obviously its not showing me the old files | 21:20 |
| aar | DarkRavin, I've never come across that before. Can't help you, sorry. | 21:20 |

| pepperjack | limecat: what did you do? | 21:20 |
| guntbert | tones: np :) | 21:20 |
| DarkRavin | tks anyways | 21:21 |
| limecat | pepperjack: long story short, was having boot issues, backed up boot partition to a dd image, then tried to dd another drives boot over top, but i specified the ROOT instead of the BOOT partition | 21:21 |
| the1corrupted | homeskill So do I use an alias? | 21:21 |
| limecat | so now my / looks like /boot, and this is very bad, since i need to recover a few scripts off it | 21:21 |
| andresmh | how do you escape the exclamation mark (!) in bash? i am running something like $foo --bar="asd!f" | 21:21 |
| m3dlg | what can cause this to happen : http://picasaweb.google.co.uk/m1dlguk/PublicView#5334659812103652626 when I boot up? This is a frozen screen when I am supposed to be at the desktop. The letters are from the bios screen i think | 21:22 |

| andresmh | thanks | 21:22 |
| saturn__ | \! | 21:22 |
| tekteen | andresmh, you can also put it in '' | 21:22 |
| homeskill | the1corrupted an alias for what? just say ServerName "localhost" in apache2.conf | 21:22 |

| homeskill | tones since vim is a real text editor, better than notepad, then theres no reason you cant use it for home work if it's editing plain text files (including html, et al) but if it's needed to be 'word processed' (have underlines, colors, etc) then not so much | 21:24 |

| tones | whats happened, all the newbies left? it was pretty active earlier on.. | 21:30 |
| Piet | limecat: if you are willing to spend some time they are probably quite good, however this also depends on the file system you had there and where exactly those scripts were stored on the disk, of course. | 21:30 |
| H_M-Laptop | Shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, maybe we can break a new record of 15 minutes of silence. | 21:31 |

| Myrtti | H_M-Laptop: did you have a ubuntu related question? | 21:31 |
| Celauran | the1corrupted: According to everything I've read, if your PHP files are still prompting a download, you may need to purge and resintall libapache2-mod-php5 | 21:31 |
| the1corrupted | Celauran Nah, it was fixed by assigning ServerName to "localhost" | 21:32 |
| Piet | limecat: well you can, just think twice before hitting that large key | 21:32 |
| H_M-Laptop | Huh? No, sorry, just chillin... Heh, not exactly the right room for that. /me moves his butt over to another channel | 21:32 |

| BlueParrot | Darael, AAAAAAAAAHHHHH , I replaced my modprobe blacklist so the pc speaker is back | 21:52 |
| === Pardubuntu is now known as ADREAL | ||
| Darael | BlueParrot: it's advisable to install the metapackage it comes from as well, in order to get any updates | 21:52 |
| BlueParrot | DIE DIE DIE | 21:52 |
| BlueParrot | Darael, ah yes | 21:52 |
| tones | carl_: hm, i wouldnt reccomend adding the jaunty sources in cause the programs will be very unstable. perhaps upgrade to jaunty again? or did you run screaming from it... | 21:52 |
| BlueParrot | Darael, I think I di dactually | 21:52 |
| Darael | BlueParrot: I take it the pc speaker being back is not good? | 21:53 |

| BlueParrot | sweet | 21:54 |
| carl_ | tones: thanks, but I'm running away from Jaunty (downgraded to intrepid) | 21:54 |
| BlueParrot | ok, time to see if I can crash my X | 21:54 |
| BlueParrot | ( i.e try to run opengl apps with an intel graphics card ) | 21:55 |
| Darael | BlueParrot: though, of course, if you're planning to move on to Jaunty any time soon it won't matter if you have the intrepid backports metapackage or not | 21:55 |
| tones | carl_: i dont blame you, my printer is shivering in a corner since i upgraded. no other ideas, sorry | 21:55 |
| BlueParrot | Darael, I dunno if I will, I have an Intel graphics and there was apparently some performance regression in jaunty | 21:55 |
| BlueParrot | Darael, think I will stay at intrepid until the next LTS | 21:55 |
| Darael | BlueParrot: have fun. | 21:55 |

| Dr_Willis | realmatt: making a panarama? | 22:26 |
| secret901 | lstarnes: trying | 22:26 |

| levidos | right now it's empty, Piet, but i remember filling it out with "search example.com" and "nameserver 192.168.0.1" | 22:27 |

| lstarnes | secret901: 2.6.24-12 is way too old. it may be left over from an old version | 22:29 |

| secret901 | lstarnes: how do I fix this manually? | 22:30 |
| Dr_Willis | realmatt: check programs shown in --> apt-cache search panorama | 22:30 |
| lstarnes | secret901: pastebin the full output | 22:31 |

| Dr_Willis | squash: with no router or antyying you need to set up static ips or install a dhcp server. and use a proper cable. then you can transfer stuff any number of ways.. ssh + winscp is one say | 22:31 |
| squash | yeah everyone's loving git | 22:32 |
| secret901 | lstarnes: http://paste.ubuntu.com/169975/ | 22:32 |

| Name141 | where can I find a list of the min/recommended requirements for Ubuntu/Xubuntu/Kubuntu ? | 22:32 |
| Darael | DrRobotnik: if you go to system->preferences->appearance and set the theme to "human" or "human-clearlooks", that should sort most of it. | 22:32 |
| carpii | i used git for first time at yahoo openhack over the weekend | 22:32 |
| carpii | its quite slick | 22:32 |
| lstarnes | git feels rather weird | 22:32 |

| squash | i prefer svn | 22:32 |
| carpii | yeah theres a bit of a learning curve | 22:32 |
| carpii | but git branching is awesome | 22:32 |
| carpii | and svn's isnt | 22:32 |
| squash | carpii: any reason? | 22:32 |
| squash | i still haven't gotten a chance to try git | 22:32 |
| squash | Dr_Willis: ah ok thank you i'll try that | 22:33 |
| carpii | you can roll back to point in time etc | 22:33 |
| levidos | Piet: done, but still can't resolve ubuntusrv... do i have to restart bind9 ? | 22:33 |
| carpii | ive never had much success with svns branching | 22:33 |
| Name141 | LjL: So an old system that's about $50ish should run it pretty good ? | 22:33 |
| LjL | can you move discussion of versioning systems to #ubuntu-offtopic perhaps? | 22:33 |
| carpii | yeah sorry | 22:33 |
| LjL | Name141: i don't know about that. | 22:33 |

| olentolupa | can anyone help me - i reinstalled winxp on a partition and it, as always, destroyed my grub (ubuntu is on a different drive). i then tried to reinstall the grub from ubuntu alternative cd but managed somehow to fuck it up. my ubuntu won't start. for now i'm starting from the live cd. i can see that the partition with the previous ubuntu install doesn't have menu.lst in the /boot/grub dir, and the /boot directory doesn't have any | 22:35 |
| olentolupa | (no kernel files) | 22:35 |
| Chr|s | How do I edit a name of a font in /usr/share/fonts/turetype other than using the terminal? | 22:35 |
| Name141 | LjL: OK. Perhaps I should look for something with an old ATI/nVidia card, no 3DFX, etc? | 22:35 |
| olentolupa | ...' anything but the grub directory | 22:35 |
| secret901 | lstarnes: what does updating have to do with an outdated kernel? | 22:35 |
| LjL | Name141: i don't suppose you want to use 3D acceleration on such a system, anyway? | 22:36 |
| lstarnes | secret901: try sudo apt-get remove linux-ubuntu-modules-2.6.24-12-generic package | 22:36 |
| lstarnes | without the "package" at the end | 22:36 |
| Piet | Name141: if a dual-boot setup is not an option, you can always run a virtual machine | 22:36 |
| Name141 | LjL: I wouldn't reckon so. My old P2 has a VooDoo3 8MB in it. I never got anything to come up for hardware support. | 22:37 |
| Piet | Name141: but, of course, seperate hardware is another option. | 22:37 |
| secret901 | lstarnes: no such package | 22:37 |
| Name141 | Piet: I want to do that, but the NIC doesn't work properly after hardy. | 22:37 |
| Piet | Name141: huh, how is that? | 22:37 |
| Name141 | Piet: I went and looked at Hardy's driver/module/whatever for it and it was the e1001 , the same for Intrepid and Jaunty. | 22:37 |
| === joot is now known as mr | ||
| secret901 | lstarnes: actually, it's working | 22:37 |
| === jamie is now known as Guest72327 | ||
| Name141 | Piet: so how does it work in Hardy, and not in the new ones ? | 22:38 |
| === mr is now known as j | ||
| Guest72327 | the diagram | 22:38 |
| Name141 | Piet: it'll sit there and twinkle on the router/switch | 22:38 |
| farruinn | I'm trying to add Windows XP to my hard drive but when I run the Windows installer it says it can't find a hard drive. Any thoughts? | 22:38 |
| grackner | yo guys i logged in my server and did a sudo reboot and then i couldnt logg in after that... it said access denied | 22:38 |
| Name141 | Piet: the light that is. It will never get an IP on the network and connect. | 22:38 |
| secret901 | !pastebin | 22:38 |
| ubottu | 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) | 22:38 |
| Piet | Name141: did you use the mainline kernel module? | 22:39 |
| Name141 | Piet: er uh? | 22:39 |
| secret901 | lstarnes: some other errors: http://paste.ubuntu.com/169977/ | 22:39 |
| Name141 | Piet: whatever comes in the live disk, the install does the same thing | 22:39 |
| Name141 | (as the LIVE Disks) | 22:39 |
| Piet | Name141: put differently: the e1001 driver is a binary module driver by intel, right? | 22:39 |
| Name141 | Piet: Yes I believe so. | 22:40 |
| Name141 | Piet: i have an Intel 82562V-2 10/100 | 22:40 |
| secret901 | lstarnes: it seems that I don't have that particular package, but the system thinks that I do | 22:40 |
| erUSUL | lstarnes: you are right.... i was sure it was valid... read it somewhere. | 22:40 |
| Piet | Name141: actually there doesn't seem to be a e1000 module | 22:40 |
| olentolupa | Also I would like to backup the files on my previous ubuntu install partition before I go on but when booting from the desktop cd and trying to copy from the hard drive, it says no permission | 22:41 |
| Name141 | Piet: Why would Hardy work , and not the newer "upgraded" ones ? | 22:41 |
| olentolupa | how will I get permission for the hd when booting from the cd | 22:41 |
| Name141 | Piet: how do I fix it? so on? | 22:41 |
| innociv | cp -r will override without prompt? | 22:41 |
| Dr_Willis | olentolupa: live cd is using a differnt user. easy way it to just use sudo/gksu and copy the stuff as root user. | 22:42 |
| Piet | Name141: it's possible that the driver you had is now replaced by a better drver (such as e1000e), hang on, i'm looking it up | 22:42 |
| Name141 | "better" | 22:43 |
| Piet | as in fully open source, more open license terms | 22:43 |
| Name141 | Piet: i saw many people on some place having the same issues with my computer. | 22:43 |
| Name141 | (and NIC) | 22:43 |
| Piet | so apparently it's like i was thinking: the e1000 driver was mostly replaced by the e1000e module, which is in mainline | 22:44 |
| Name141 | Piet: how would I go back to the other module/driver/whatever they are called in Linux ? | 22:45 |
| Name141 | Piet: Also just for verification, this happens in Fedora10 also. | 22:45 |
| lstarnes | secret901: that's odd | 22:45 |
| secret901 | lstarnes: I tried installing that package too, but I get the same errors | 22:46 |
| lstarnes | secret901: I don't know if this is safe (it likely isn't) but try sudo aptitude remove --force linux-ubuntu-modules-2.6.24-12-generic | 22:46 |
| Piet | Name141: so, after downloading the latest version of the e1000 driver from intel.com (or linux.intel.com) and instructions on how to compile it, just in case the next steps don't work, just do this: ifdown eth0; rmmod e1000; modprobe e1000e; ifup eth0 | 22:46 |
| olentolupa | dr_willis, how will i do that? if i just write sudo or gksu, it will just give mee the root for the cd | 22:47 |
| olentolupa | how do i tell it i want to use the sudo for the hd partition | 22:47 |
| Vorondil | Howdy, quick question. If one is using compiz as a standalone window manager, is there a pager that works with it? I've tried two different netwm compliant pagers and both seem thoroughly confused with compiz. | 22:47 |
| Dr_Willis | olentolupa: the root user has full access to all the filessytems | 22:47 |
| Dr_Willis | olentolupa: your phrase 'root for the cd' means nothing. | 22:47 |
| olentolupa | okay | 22:47 |
| Piet | Name141: you will get disconnected from the internet while doing this. note also that i'm assuming that eth0 is the device which refers to this NIC we're talking about, but it could be another. | 22:47 |
| olentolupa | So what exactly should I do then? | 22:47 |
| yowshi | grrr how do i get vlc to not try and record any audio or better yet point it to my frigging mic | 22:47 |
| Dr_Willis | olentolupa: boot live cd. run file manager as root ,. mount the drives.. do what you want.. | 22:48 |
| ubuntu | hola | 22:48 |

| Pafs321 | hi! i have 4gb ram installed on my pc, and i was looking at the system monitor on ubuntu, it shows that i have 3gb, on vista it shows that i have 4gb. sombody has an idea why?? | 22:48 |
| arak1 | has anyone managed to get intel NICs operating at 1000Mbps with the intel e1000 ? I have tried to install the newest drivers from intel (with different compilation flags). it remains stuck at connecting only in 100Mbps mode | 22:49 |
| olentolupa | Dr_Willis so "sudo nautilus"? | 22:49 |
| dayo | is there any way to customize sudo so that only certain sudo commands are available to certain users who are in sudo? | 22:49 |
| Dr_Willis | olentolupa: gksu normally.. if you want to use that file manager. | 22:49 |
| lstarnes | olentolupa: no, gksudo nautilus | 22:49 |
| Dr_Willis | !sudo | olentolupa | 22:49 |
| ubottu | olentolupa: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more information. For graphical applications see !gksu (Gnome, XFCE), or !kdesudo (KDE) | 22:49 |
| lstarnes | dayo: man sudoers | 22:49 |
| erUSUL | Pafs321: vista is 64 bits and ubuntu 32 bits ? | 22:49 |
| dayo | lstarnes: ok | 22:49 |
| Pafs321 | yeah | 22:49 |
| secret901 | lstarnes: doesn't seem to be a force option for aptitude | 22:49 |
| Pafs321 | i use dualboot | 22:50 |
| Dr_Willis | Pafs321: thats why :) | 22:50 |
| erUSUL | Pafs321: there you have your answer | 22:50 |
| Piet | Name141: you may also need to add this to /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf: blacklist e1000 | 22:50 |
| lstarnes | secret901: try -f instead of --force | 22:50 |
| user1 | I'm having trouble with rsync. I am trying to sync music on my hard drive to a flash drive. Even though the files are identical (down to the time stamp) rsync is still insisting on copying the files. How can I stop it doing this? This is the command I'm using "rsync -avh --delete --prune-empty-dirs --progress --log-file=/home/david/Videos/.logs/musiclog.txt /home/david/Music/ /media/Drg16gmsd/Music/" | 22:50 |
| Pafs321 | so, i'd have to install bista as 86 bits? | 22:50 |
| Pafs321 | vista* | 22:50 |
| lstarnes | Pafs321: 86? | 22:50 |
| Pafs321 | 32 | 22:50 |
| Piet | Name141: and restart your network: sudo /etc/ini.t/networking restart | 22:50 |
| Pafs321 | i mean | 22:50 |
| Dr_Willis | Pafs321: use 64bit os ifyou want full use of 4+gb of ram | 22:50 |
| fzza3a | #join linux | 22:50 |
| justin__ | anyone got ventrilo workin on linux? | 22:50 |

| fzza3a | sorry :( | 22:51 |
| Name141 | Piet: so I need to save the new driver to an exteral? | 22:51 |
| Name141 | Piet: then do all of that ? | 22:51 |
| justin__ | i am aware, just curious if anyone here has got it working personally | 22:52 |
| olentolupa | Dr_Willis ok, I got it to work - how come it didn't ask for any password? i had always thought that all the data on my ext3 partition was password protected? | 22:52 |
| Dr_Willis | olentolupa: no its not. | 22:52 |
| Dr_Willis | olentolupa: if you ha encrypted the filesytem then it would be | 22:52 |
| olentolupa | ah, ok | 22:52 |
| Name141 | Piet: e1000-8.0.9.tar.gz? | 22:52 |
| secret901 | lstarnes: still the same failure | 22:53 |
| Piet | Name141: downloading that driver off the intel website is just in case the e1000e driver does not work for you for some reason. if you activate the e1000e and realize you cannot get your network interface started, then instead compile and install the intel one | 22:53 |
| Piet | Name141: yes that sounds reasonable | 22:53 |
| Rythoka | this isn't a problem now, but anyone have an idea as to why my wifi sopped working immediately after I updated to jaunty? | 22:53 |

| olentolupa | Dr_Willis, do you have some idea how i would rewrite the grub? I've tried the directions from the ubuntuwiki but somehow the menu.lst just won't show up after the grub-install command | 22:54 |
| maco | i've got apturl installed, but firefox still doesn't know what's going on when i click on an apt:// link. do i have to do something to firefox to make it understand that? | 22:54 |

| olentolupa | also "root (hd2,0)" and "setup (hd2)" don't seem to do anything | 22:54 |
| fcn | i made a launcher for kiba-dock and i want it not to show the annoying startup notifier. i set "StartupNotify=false" in the desktop entry but it still shows it | 22:54 |
| Piet | Name141: also make sure you have a build environment before you try that. you'll need to aptitude install build-essentials linux-headers-$(uname -r) | 22:55 |
| Name141 | Piet: so you want me to do: ifdown eth0; rmmod e1000; modprobe e1000e; ifup eth0 | after that: /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf: blacklist e1000 | finally: sudo /etc/ini.t/networking restart | 22:55 |

| levidos | is there a limitation how many dots can be in a domain name? e.g. www.test.example.com.us is valid? | 22:55 |

Also, have tried banshee, and it seems to have similar defici | 23:08 |

| legend2440 | Dr_Willis: ok i guess i'll have to switch to nvidia. thanks | 23:22 |
| Piet | unko: start vlc from a terminal window and then load the file which caused the crash. the terminal window will probably contain some notices, maybe warnings and possibly error messages which can help you diagnopse this. | 23:22 |

| LjL | !sudo > drthtater (drthtater, see the private message from ubottu) | 23:25 |
| ienorand | drthtater: first, why do you need the directory there, second, you could use "sudo mkdir /usl/local/foo" for that purpose. | 23:25 |
| LjL | !cli > drthtater (drthtater, see the private message from ubottu) | 23:25 |
| joaopinto | ertu_, yes it does, as long you have the proper codecs | 23:25 |
| VCoolio | ertu_: use realplayer, it's another extra app on your pc, but it works and if you have a lot of rmvb files it's worth it | 23:25 |
| Piet | spx2: on? | 23:25 |
| Blinkiz | unko, Hi there. I have a suggestion. Turn on logging to file in VLC and se why the media player crashes :) | 23:25 |
| spx2 | Piet: my net problem | 23:25 |
| joaopinto | ertu_, oh, ignore me, was reading wrong | 23:26 |
| unko | blink, ok | 23:26 |
| Blinkiz | unko, choose advanced style of preference in vlc. Then click advanced-logging and there you have it | 23:26 |
| mudassar | hello experts, can somebody guide me to solve many problems of ubuntu 9.04 regarding compatibility with my laptop ? | 23:26 |
| unko | Blinkiz, ok | 23:26 |
| LjL | !pm | griebd | 23:26 |
| ubottu | griebd: 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. | 23:26 |
| David1 | I right clicked on my flash drive and changed a mount setting (from the right-click gnome menu properties option). The drive will now not mount. How can I undo what I did? | 23:26 |
| ertu_ | VCoolio, thank you | 23:27 |
| the1corrupted | Hey, I was wondering if there was a way I cold execute keyboard shortcuts for Rythembox while it's minimized? | 23:27 |
| drthtater | ienorand: I'm installing ubuntu 9.04 on a tc1100 | 23:27 |
| yowshi | is there a way of reloading webcam drivers like alsa-reload does? | 23:27 |
| JoseBravo | Hi, how can I install flash support for my firefox under ubuntu 9.04 x 64 bits? | 23:27 |
| drthtater | I want to install tabatha so that I get the ratational qualities of the tablet | 23:27 |
| joaopinto | !flash | JoseBravo | 23:27 |
| ubottu | JoseBravo: To install Flash see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/Flash (a recent version for !Dapper is available in !backports) - See also !Restricted and !Gnash | 23:27 |
| Blinkiz | mudassar, You have to tell whats wrong for anyone to be able to help you | 23:28 |
| drthtater | I thoguht that the instructions told me to install it into a folder inside of /usr/bin | 23:28 |
| Oli```` | LjL: he's asking everybody... bot IMO | 23:28 |
| drthtater | Oli````: no, ienorand asked | 23:28 |
| unko | Blinkiz, were would the log be located? | 23:29 |
| Oli```` | drthtater: odd.. wonder why he asked me for help via PM | 23:29 |
| * drthtater shrugs | 23:30 | |
| Piet | spx2: did we talk before? sorry if i don't recall | 23:30 |
| Blinkiz | unko, You specify it in the preference window I described. Place it on desktop or something for easy access | 23:30 |
| Piet | spx2: can you summarize the problem again for me? | 23:30 |
| unko | okk | 23:30 |
| David1 | I right clicked on my flash drive and changed a mount setting (from the right-click gnome menu properties option). The drive will now not mount. How can I undo what I did? | 23:30 |
| gravityreloaded | David1 go to my computer and right-click flash drive there? | 23:31 |
| hackerz10001 | Hello | 23:31 |
| jdu | a friend of mine suggested not upgrading to jaunty because of stability problems (caused when using firefox). Has anyone else had anything like this? I was thinking I was going to upgrade a family member's computer, and I want it to be stable. | 23:31 |
| mudassar | i need an expert to solve all of my problems of ubuntu 9.04. My laptop is Toshiba Satellite A110-137. The problems are, 1) Headphones volume is so low (I have checked all alsamixer stuff) 2) There are microphone problems in many softwares like Skype 3) I have installed flashplayer (from adobe) but still youtube video doesn't work fine. 4) Many streaming videos just show video and no audio. 5) I cannot configure SIP phone like (x-lite) that w | 23:31 |
| unko | Blinkiz, when it crashed it didn't leave a log? | 23:32 |
| David1 | gravityreloaded: Okay, what next? | 23:32 |
| Blinkiz | unko, okay | 23:32 |
| gravityreloaded | jdu U will have problems watching youtube videos - I have to download them then watch. That's Ok for me.... | 23:32 |
| gravityreloaded | Aren't the mount options there? | 23:32 |
| gravityreloaded | I'm not actually on my Ubuntu at the moment | 23:33 |
| David1 | gravityreloaded: No there aren't | 23:33 |
| unko | Blinkiz, man this sucks i really like vlc and this is the first time it happend to me... totem player is.. idk bad | 23:33 |
| hackerz10001 | I need to know if Ubuntu has Drivers for a Dell Optiplex GX150 and for a NVIDIA GeForce FX5500 | 23:33 |
| jdu | gravityreloaded, really? what happens more exactly? | 23:33 |
| gravityreloaded | jdu: errm I get audio but no video except when paused | 23:33 |
| gravityreloaded | it's not very practical | 23:33 |
| yowshi | can webcan drivewrs and stuff be reloaded like alsa force-reload ? | 23:33 |
| beg2h8ubuntu | I have no sound on ubuntu hoping someone can help | 23:33 |
| hackerz10001 | Or do I have to go the the manufacters website and get them manuly | 23:33 |
| gravityreloaded | but I use video download helper and watch in Mplayer | 23:34 |
| gravityreloaded | np | 23:34 |
| Blinkiz | unko, I have left VLC and dont use it anymore. Use latest smplayer/mplayer now days because it has acceleration for 720p/1080p video with nvidia cards | 23:34 |
| David1 | gravityreloaded: When I plug it in, I get an error saying it couldnt' mount because of an invalid mount option. | 23:34 |
| Blinkiz | vlc does not have this feature | 23:34 |
| mudassar | i need an expert to solve all of my problems of ubuntu 9.04. My laptop is Toshiba Satellite A110-137. The problems are, 1) Headphones volume is so low (I have checked all alsamixer stuff) 2) There are microphone problems in many softwares like Skype 3) I have installed flashplayer (from adobe) but still youtube video doesn't work fine. 4) Many streaming videos just show video and no audio. 5) I cannot configure SIP phone like (x-lite) that w | 23:34 |
| jdu | gravityreloaded, which download helper do you use? | 23:34 |
| unko | Blinkiz, really? dam... im about to use that! but mplayers gui is weird... | 23:34 |
| jtaji | Blinkiz: does that work out of the box with 9.04 now ? | 23:34 |
| gravityreloaded | David1: maybe it was used under Microsoft system and wasn't "removed safely" | 23:35 |
| BadElvis | very very recently, i performed some weird update and now the font sizes of gnome are f**d up and the filesizes of files are shown on the desktop. how can i revert these changes | 23:35 |
| jdu | hackerz10001, I have dell optiplex gx270 that works fine; no nvidia though | 23:35 |
| Blinkiz | unko, yeah, mplayer gui is not good. Because of this, smplayer is used. Smplayer is a gui for mplayer :) | 23:35 |
| mirak | why f-spot proposes à directory différent of my directory set in the preferences during importation ? | 23:35 |
| Blinkiz | jtaji, No, its not in 9.04 by default. | 23:35 |
| gravityreloaded | jdu: search for "downloadhelper" in Firefox xtras | 23:35 |
| griebd | what do i do when i get the message that says...ONLY ONE SOFTWARE MANAGEMENT TOOL IS ALLOWED TO RUN AT THE SAME TIME...im trying to install limewire | 23:35 |
| Hutchewon | u | 23:35 |
| David1 | gravityreloaded: No, I was using in ubuntu this evening and it was fine, then I changed it's mount option and it then I had this problem | 23:35 |
| unko | Blinkiz, ohh thats whyy... hmm | 23:35 |
| joaopinto | !aptlock | 23:35 |
| ubottu | If an APT front-end crashed and your database is locked, try this in a !terminal: « sudo fuser -vki /var/lib/dpkg/lock;sudo dpkg --configure -a » | 23:35 |
| barbrella | mudassar:the best expert is you, if you start reading...just a hint | 23:35 |
| jdu | gravityreloaded, thanks | 23:35 |
| joaopinto | !aptlock | griebd | 23:35 |
| ubottu | griebd: please see above | 23:35 |
| jtaji | Blinkiz: yeah true, but you didn't have to compile anything? | 23:35 |
| mudassar | i need an expert to solve all of my problems of ubuntu 9.04. My laptop is Toshiba Satellite A110-137. The problems are, 1) Headphones volume is so low (I have checked all alsamixer stuff) 2) There are microphone problems in many softwares like Skype 3) I have installed flashplayer (from adobe) but still youtube video doesn't work fine. 4) Many streaming videos just show video and no audio. 5) I cannot configure SIP phone like (x-lite) that w | 23:35 |
| jdu | has anyone else had problems with firefox on jaunty? | 23:35 |
| Jack_Sparrow | griebd Shut down one of the package managers | 23:35 |
| dtchen | beg2h8ubuntu: / mudassar: you need to provide more information. use: "wget -O ~/Desktop/alsa-info.sh http://www.alsa-project.org/alsa-info.sh && bash ~/Desktop/alsa-info.sh --no-upload", and pastebin the resulting /tmp/alsa-info.txt | 23:36 |
| griebd | i already restarted the computer | 23:36 |
| gravityreloaded | jdu: install, restart firefox, go to youtube or googlevideo, choose video and click small arrow next to symbol | 23:36 |
| griebd | im new to all this | 23:36 |
| Jack_Sparrow | !aptfix | 23:36 |
| ubottu | If an APT front-end crashed and your database is locked, try this in a !terminal: « sudo fuser -vki /var/lib/dpkg/lock;sudo dpkg --configure -a » | 23:36 |
| gravityreloaded | It then asks you to save filename.flv | 23:36 |
| Blinkiz | unko, Have you tried pressing the big "reset preferences" button in vlc? Maybe the problem will go away then | 23:36 |
| Hutchewon | Hello, can someone help me get firefox to play flashvideo sound in my account? TIA | 23:36 |
| dtchen | beg2h8ubuntu: / mudassar: you'll then need to tell us the resulting url of your pastebin | 23:36 |
| Jack_Sparrow | !aptfix > griebd | 23:36 |
| ubottu | griebd, please see my private message | 23:36 |
| unko | Blinkiz, yea i tried that | 23:36 |
| dtchen | Hutchewon: using which release? | 23:37 |
| Jack_Sparrow | griebd Which version of ubuntu are you running | 23:37 |
| c0al67 | strange problem - although i've changed nothing on my computer lately, when i booted up today my computer shuts down just after gnome loads. i've booted into fluxbox and started everything manually and no crashes. I think the problem might be with the 3d desktop stuff - can anyone point out how i can start the composite extension manually so i can rule out if that is the problem or not? | 23:37 |
| gravityreloaded | David1: I can't help you then - I never had trouble with flash drives | 23:37 |
| beg2h8ubuntu | ya I have no idea what u just said | 23:37 |
| beg2h8ubuntu | I know nothing about linux | 23:37 |
| dtchen | beg2h8ubuntu: open a Terminal and type the command in quotes | 23:37 |
| dtchen | beg2h8ubuntu: Applications> Accessories> Terminal | 23:38 |
| Jack_Sparrow | !who > beg2h8ubuntu | 23:38 |
| ubottu | beg2h8ubuntu, please see my private message | 23:38 |
| Hutchewon | Jaunty | 23:38 |
| unko | Blinkiz, ill try out mplayer | 23:38 |
| David1 | gravityreloaded - I've looked in fstab to see if the setting was there, but it wasn't. Where else might Ubuntu (more likely gnome or nautilus) store mount options? | 23:38 |
| dtchen | Hutchewon: which arch? | 23:38 |
| Jack_Sparrow | David1 Did you try a force mount | 23:38 |
| jtaji | David1: you need to run gconf-editor for that | 23:38 |
| Hutchewon | arch? | 23:38 |
| dtchen | Hutchewon: uname -m | 23:38 |
| [esde] | my conky "starts" but does not open in my desktop, though my .conf file is written as "own_window no", when i change it to "own_window yes" it works. in addition, when i shut the system down it suddenly appears. | 23:39 |
| dtchen | Hutchewon: e.g., 32-bit or 64-bit | 23:39 |
| jdu | gravityreloaded, thanks, when I go the upgrade, if I need to, I'll do that. It is probably useful anyway though, whether flash is working properly or not. | 23:39 |
| [esde] | i686 | 23:39 |
| jtaji | David1: it's confusing, when you change the mount point of a removable drive in gnome, you should *not* add /media/, just the dir it should be under /media | 23:39 |
| U-b-u-n-t-u | is there a google chrome for ubuntu? | 23:39 |
| Hutchewon | i686 | 23:39 |
| dtchen | U-b-u-n-t-u: there's a ppa for [chromium], yes | 23:39 |
| Hutchewon | It works in other accounts. This is the account I installed in. | 23:39 |
| Silentsound | how do i get to the kubuntu channel? | 23:39 |
| VCoolio | [esde]: why not use the own_window yes? | 23:40 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Silentsound /join #kubuntu | 23:40 |
| gravityreloaded | jdu: y. np. enjoy it. the only other bug is Skype makes my sound crackly, but maybe just on my PC ?!? | 23:40 |
| dtchen | Hutchewon: how did you install support for Flash? | 23:40 |
| Silentsound | thanks | 23:40 |
| jtaji | David1: anyway in gconf-editor you should be able to find the key for the drive you messed with and delete it | 23:40 |
| mudassar | dtchen: I have run the command that you specified, it has written information in alsa-info.txt file where to upload it now ? | 23:40 |
| David1 | oh I didn't change the mount point, I just added the "-o noatime" option | 23:40 |
| dtchen | !paste > mudassar | 23:40 |
| [esde] | VCoolio: i want it in my desktop, not as its own window. | 23:40 |
| ubottu | mudassar, please see my private message | 23:40 |
| Hutchewon | yes, and it works in other accounts on the same machine. | 23:40 |
| U-b-u-n-t-u | dtchen, where do I find the google chrome for ubuntu? | 23:40 |
| jtaji | David1: ah, either way, fix it the same way by deleting the key in gconf-editor | 23:40 |
| Blinkiz | unko, Now I know how you can see why vlc crashes. Start vlc from a terminal! Start a terminal, browse to a movie and start it with "vlc moviename.avi". You will now see why it crashes. For more information, add a "-v" before movie name | 23:40 |
| dtchen | U-b-u-n-t-u: https://edge.launchpad.net/~chromium-daily/+archive/ppa | 23:41 |
| yowshi1 | ok to force-reloading hal isnt the answer | 23:41 |
| jtaji | David1: that's the other tricky bit, once you mess it up, of course it won't mount again to fix it | 23:41 |
| U-b-u-n-t-u | ty | 23:41 |
| unko | Blinkiz, ok hold on | 23:41 |
| jdu | U-b-u-n-t-u, it is not guarantied to work that well (at least it didn't for me about a month ago) If you want a webkit based browser, get a recent release of midori or similar | 23:41 |
| David1 | jtaji: Yep, that's what I'm facing now. I'm running Beagal to search for the volume name of my drive to see if it finds a configuration file. | 23:41 |
| === c is now known as charitwo | ||
| [esde] | my conky "starts" but does not open in my desktop, though my .conf file is written as "own_window no", when i change it to "own_window yes" it works. in addition, when i shut the system down it suddenly appears. It worked fine before, i could type "conky" and it would be in my desktop and work fine; all of the sudden it wouldnt work. as i said this is only when i use the varible "own_window no". | 23:41 |
| jtaji | David1: no no, trust me, gconf-editor | 23:42 |
| VCoolio | [esde]: you can do that, [own_window yes], [own_window_type normal], [own_window_hints below,sticky,skip_taskbar,skip_pager, undecorated], [own_window_transparent yes] | 23:42 |
| jtaji | David1: you can run it from ALT+F2 since it won't be in your menu by default | 23:42 |
| mudassar | dtchen: I have pasted it there the link is http://paste.ubuntu.com/170005/ | 23:42 |
| [esde] | let me try that | 23:42 |
| dtchen | Hutchewon: i.e., did you install the tarball (tgz) downloaded from Adobe's web site? Did you use adobe-flashplugin from the Canonical partner repository? Did you use flashplugin-installer? | 23:42 |
| jtaji | David1: because even if you find the config file, you aren't supposed to edit it by hand | 23:43 |
| U-b-u-n-t-u | thanks jdu | 23:43 |
| Blinkiz | mudassar, Try to search on google and see if you find something. http://www.google.com/search?q=Toshiba+Satellite+A110+ubuntu | 23:43 |
| Hutchewon | dtchen, it will play sound through my usb voip phone just not from the speakers. | 23:43 |
| VCoolio | [esde]: the parts between [ ] each on a separate line | 23:43 |
| unko | Blinkiz, http://pastie.org/475053 | 23:43 |
| dtchen | Hutchewon: do you have the pavucontrol package installed? | 23:43 |
| dtchen | mudassar: looking in a few minutes, please wait | 23:44 |
| mudassar | Blinkiz: brother I have made so much research on google, but I couldn't solve these 5 problems. | 23:44 |
| Hutchewon | It is like the output is sent to the wrong device. What is pavucontrol? | 23:44 |
| mudassar | dtchen: ok | 23:44 |
| BadElvis | very very recently, i performed some weird update and now the font sizes of gnome are f**d up and the filesizes of files are shown on the desktop. how can i revert these changes? | 23:44 |
| dtchen | Hutchewon: it's a gui utility to migrate audio streams between your computer's sound devices | 23:44 |
| [esde] | VCoolio: works 95%, i need to remove the shadow | 23:44 |
| VCoolio | [esde]: you have compiz? | 23:44 |
| Hutchewon | can you give me the term syntax? | 23:44 |
| [esde] | yes VCoolio | 23:45 |
| yowshi1 | grrr the ng15daemon doe3snt respond to restart or force-reload commands | 23:45 |
| drthtater | anyone want to attempt to help me? :) | 23:45 |
| dtchen | Hutchewon: you can use Applications> Add/Remove.. or System> Administration> Synaptic Package Manager to install it | 23:45 |
| drthtater | new issue | 23:45 |
| VCoolio | [esde]: in window decoration plugin find entry for shadow windows and make that [ any & !(class=conky) ] | 23:45 |
| mudassar | dtchen: please message me in private when you are done. | 23:45 |
| jdu | BadElvis, have you tried to correct the font sizes in Preferences => Appearance => Font and looked at nautilus settings for what information is displayed? | 23:45 |
| drthtater | I;m trying to install my stylus for my tc1100 | 23:45 |
| Blinkiz | unko, Instead of pasting the movie name as you have done, try to use the "tab" button. Start by writing "vlc Cran" and then press the TAB button. Ubuntu will now fill it with the correct path for the movie. Again.... | 23:46 |
| Blinkiz | :) | 23:46 |
| dtchen | mudassar: please message me with your url so it isn't lost in the scrollback | 23:46 |
| jdu | BadElvis, you might also start: gconf-editor and look at settings regarding nautilus and filesize | 23:46 |
| drthtater | when trying to sudo apt-get source wacom-tools I get this | 23:46 |
| drthtater | sh: dpkg-source: not found | 23:46 |
| drthtater | Unpack command 'dpkg-source -x wacom-tools_0.8.2.2-0ubuntu2.dsc' failed. | 23:46 |
| drthtater | Check if the 'dpkg-dev' package is installed. | 23:46 |
| drthtater | E: Child process failed | 23:46 |
| FloodBot3 | drthtater: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 23:46 |
| dtchen | drthtater: right, so you probably want to install dpkg-dev | 23:46 |
| BadElvis | jdu: i changed the 5 different font sizes in appearance -> fonts without effect. | 23:46 |
| BadElvis | jdu, ok i will try | 23:46 |
| Hutchewon | oh, the pulse audio volume control, already got it. Sorry for being such a noob. | 23:46 |
| joaopinto | drthtater, like the message says, you need dpkg-dev | 23:47 |
| drthtater | so, apt-get dpkg-dev | 23:47 |
| Jack_Sparrow | BadElvis Do you have any unsupported repos in your sources list? | 23:47 |
| joaopinto | drthtater, sudo apt-get install .... | 23:47 |
| unko | Blinkiz, wait what? | 23:47 |
| mudassar | dtchen: please see my private messages | 23:47 |
| unko | Blinkiz, tab in terminal? | 23:47 |
| BadElvis | Jack_Sparrow: no i only have the standart repos | 23:47 |
| dtchen | Hutchewon: now, with a Flash stream playing, see the Playback tab. Choose the drop-down arrow next to the Flash stream, choose Move Stream.., and select the desired card | 23:47 |
| [esde] | VCoolio: it didnt work | 23:47 |
| Hutchewon | Sound works everywhere else. Even works in mozilla in the other accouns. | 23:48 |
| Blinkiz | unko, Okay, hmm. Maybe the name aint tab in english.. hehe | 23:48 |
| ienorand | drthtater: yea, and sudo that | 23:48 |
| ^P|Snoozing | how do i make a zip file in ubuntu? | 23:48 |
| drthtater | Thanks, I decided to do the most difficult thing possible when starting out with linux | 23:48 |
| VCoolio | [esde]: any & !(class=conky] you did exactly that? | 23:48 |
| Jack_Sparrow | BadElvis Which release of ubuntu | 23:48 |
| drthtater | go figure | 23:48 |
| unko | Blinkiz, | 23:48 |
| unko | :P | 23:48 |
| Blinkiz | unko, Above the caps lock key on the keyboard :) | 23:48 |
| Jack_Sparrow | !zip | 23:48 |
| ubottu | Files with extensions .tar, .gz, .tgz, .zip, .bz2, .7z, .ace and other archive file formats can be opened with file-roller (GNOME), Ark (KDE), or Xarchiver (XFCE) - Also see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FileCompression | 23:48 |
| Hutchewon | in mozilla or in pavaudio | 23:48 |
| Hutchewon | ? | 23:48 |
| VCoolio | [esde]: ) instead of ] , sorry | 23:48 |
| yowshi1 | is there a way to restart all usb devices? | 23:48 |
| [esde] | oh ok | 23:48 |
| unko | Blinkiz, yea i know the tab key... but when i press it is it supposed to fill in th name for me? | 23:48 |
| jdu | BadElvis, one method is to create a new user account, then do: sudo cp -pr /home/<firstuser>/* /home/<seconduser>/* Then do: sudo chown -R <seconduser>:<seconduser> /home/<seconduser> And copy the config dirs you want to keep like .mozilla | 23:49 |
| Blinkiz | unko, yepp, if you are in the same path as the movie is in | 23:49 |
| BadElvis | Jack_Sparrow: I use jaunty. All this happened a few days ago after an update. I also wonder why the dpi setting has no effect | 23:49 |
| dtchen | Hutchewon: you'll change the stream using pavucontrol. you'll play the Flash stream in your web browser. | 23:49 |
| [esde] | yes VCoolio it is "any & !(class=conky) " | 23:49 |
| jdu | BadElvis, that is a little like starting over config wise on your account, which may be the easiest way to solve the problem. | 23:49 |
| grkblood13 | how do i access the other hdd i have internally? i dont see it | 23:49 |
| Hutchewon | ok, thanks, will do. | 23:49 |
| Blinkiz | unko, Where do you have your movie? On the desktop? | 23:49 |
| Jack_Sparrow | BadElvis If you manually installed the video driver, a kernel update may have set you back to vesa mode | 23:49 |
