The DVD and Altrenate CD/ISO will not work. You can find the 8.10 ISO here. If Wubi does not find an appropriate ISO/CD and/or if the ISO/CD is corrupted, it will automatically download a new ISO.

[00:55] hello again, I am using an ATI Radeon HD 4850 GPU. When I installed Ubuntu everything worked fine with the default drivers, but when I tried to load some games, those drivers wouldn't render images correctly. so I went to the Add/remove screen and added some "ATI catalyst control center", ever since that my screen has just gone pixelated with pixels of random colours when I try to boot [00:55] and the screen is unreadable [00:55] any idea what to do now? :\ [00:56] NeutroN-- you have to do it from cli [00:56] Oh and when I get ubuntu installed, what do I do to get better drivers for my card? My ATI Mobility Radeon 9000 is slow on Ubuntu and games don't work well. [00:56] amanda-b: UNR version are tailored for 7" netbooks. [00:57] never mind then. [00:58] amanda-b: Stick with regular Ubuntu Jaunty. :) [00:58] RHorse: what is that? sorry I am a linux newbie, I only just installed ubuntu to try it out, then I got to this problem :\ [00:58] mobi-sheep: i've always been a debian girl. =/ only reason i'm messing with this is that i have server on my mac mini -- the debian installer can't handle the efi boot [00:59] what is this means http://pastebin.com/f6c820cd7 ? what is it mean processor 0 of 10 ? fan 0 of 1 ? === lipsinV2_ is now known as lipsinV2 === Cryp\ict_Donkey_ is now known as Cryptic [01:01] axisys: these are showing various power-saving-states of your hardware, numbers greater than zero mean things like the screen being dimmed or the processor running slower [01:01] how can I know which process is using a specific port?

[01:03] Is there a command other than "dpkg --get-selections" that will display a list of installed packages? Preferably aptitude-related ? [01:03] sevodnya: is there a tool i can use to control the fan status ? [01:03] I think one [01:04] I added some ATI catalyst control center and rebooted, then it all happened. hehe [01:04] axisys: in general, that's automatically controlled by the BIOS of your computer; there may be a way to control it manually, im not sure [01:04] dpkg --get-selections|less will give you a list of everything you've instaalled. [01:05] Search for your program [01:05] if you give me a min I will come back on another computer, and boot ubuntu on this system [01:05] hold on :) [01:05] ok [01:05] RHorse does that cover ALL or just the ones installed with apt-get from repos etc [01:05] what does this mean? Cooling 0: Processor 0 of 10 .. last question about this :-) [01:05] Jack_Sparrow all [01:05] RHorse: or dpkg -l | less for a list of everything installed [01:05] there may be a order date argument [01:05] anyone can help me using the gimp for image conversion? [01:06] axisys: that means that your processor is running at full speed, it would turn down the speed automatically if your computer was startign to get dangerously hot, as running slower produces less heat [01:06] mercutio22: Sure, what do you need to do? [01:06] Hi I am trying to use the pdfedit program but each time I open a PDF it crashes. I am on Ubuntu 9.04 [01:06] mercutio22: Convert to what? [01:06] alright it's me NeutroN again, trying to reboot my other system now [01:06] sevodnya: thnx [01:06] cool [01:07] whileimhere: can you try running it from a terminal, see if it produces output, and pastebin any it produces? [01:07] usr13> I need to convert some high-res tiff files into at-least 300 dpi PNGs or JPGs [01:07] !pastebin | whileimhere [01:07] whileimhere: pastebin is a service to post multiple-lined texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu.com (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the channel topic) [01:07] mercutio22 gimp [01:07] does anybody knows about Boxee? [01:07] sevodnya: http://paste.ubuntu.com/173327/ [01:08] Jack_Sparrow> I know that, but how can I ensure a determined resolution is attained? [01:08] mercutio22: Just open the file with gimp and then File -> Save As and then just give it the .jpg or .png extension and gimp does the rest. [01:08] usr13> what about that resolution cap? [01:08] mercutio22 perhaps /join #gimp [01:08] whileimhere: sorry, i can't say i can point out the problem there--you're trying to split pdfs, yes? [01:08] Jack_Sparrow> sure. I am there... thanks. [01:09] whileimhere Are they encrypted or protected pdf's [01:09] mercutio22 cool [01:09] mercutio22: Well, that just depends on what they are when you get 'em. Gimp will save at highes resolution it can. [01:09] sevodnya I have a PDF that is not encrypted or protected and It is about 400 pages. I need just get just a few pages out of it and make a new PDF from those pages. [01:10] whileimhere: are you on 9.04? [01:10] Hi, I'm trying to use the update-manager to upgade (from Gutsy to Hardy, then hopefully on to Jaunty...) but it's saying "Unable to calculate the upgrade" and says it may be because I have 3rd party packages not provided by ubuntu installed. Well is there any easy way to look for packages not provided by Ubuntu? I've probably installed a few... [01:10] sevodnya Yes I am on ubuntu 9.04 GNOME desktop [01:10] gumpish Onsupported repos in your sources list would be my first thought [01:10] whileimhere, pdfeditor? [01:10] ok RHorse I have booted ubuntu now, what did you tell me to type again? :) [01:10] jdu Yes. [01:11] whileimhere: I haven't used this, but it might do the trick, and it looks straightforward: [01:11] !info pdfsam | whileimhere [01:11] whileimhere: pdfsam (source: pdfsam): PDF Split and Merge. In component universe, is optional. Version 1.0.3-1 (jaunty), package size 575 kB, installed size 744 kB [01:11] hello [01:11] where i can change settings of Boxee? [01:11] vasser: Hello yerself. [01:11] i am trying to set up my audigy2 sound card under ubuntu [01:12] so far i got to the point where in sound-test i hear all speakers [01:12] ok, funnyface type dpkg -l|less You can paste that [01:12] fortuna66_ boxee isnt in our repos, perhaps they have a support system [01:12] (should i be hearing static ?) [01:12] vasser: what are you trying to do, and what is happening instead? [01:13] but when i run a movie to play with Totem it detects it as stereo (and it is not) [01:13] ok..i will try [01:13] its boxee alpha [01:13] in vlc i cannot even choose a device when playing a movie [01:13] Hi there. Did an upgrade from Intrepid to Jaunty. However, I had a previous Kubuntu 9.04 partition of who's GRUB is being used. When I boot my pc, the latest version of Ubuntu kernel is not on the GRUB list since it is the grub list from Kubuntu. How do i make my current Ubuntu GRUB list be the one on startup? [01:13] hmm yeah I did, that's a long list :P [01:13] both movies (and others i have tried) are hd movies with 5.1 sound, either dts or ac3 [01:14] Monk you can repair grub or just copy the grub list you want to the boot drive [01:14] thanks Jack_Sparrow. seems to have been the problem. [01:14] i have already set up a default sound card [01:14] gumpish cool [01:14] and changed in the settings of gnome to use the audigy as default [01:14] Jack_Sparrow: how do i repait GRUB? [01:14] vasser: if you want 5.1 through ac3, you need to configure pulseaudio to use that device. [01:14] !grub [01:14] GRUB is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost GRUB after installing Windows? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreGrub - GRUB how-tos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto [01:14] I got a problem mounting an NTFS partition.. i get this error: http://pastebin.com/m45e86dc0 [01:15] vasser: that means either modifying /etc/pulse/default.pa or ~/.pulse/default.pa [01:15] had any one has problems installing mysql 5.1 on Unbuntu Jaunty [01:15] ?

I am going to install the linux version of VMware server if any one dosnt know if a good guide. The only guide I could find was for earlier versions. [01:15] what about usb installs? [01:15] brokensilo looks like you did not defrag that drive twice .. that is the usual recommendation [01:16] funnyface use pgup and pgdn to find it [01:16] !usb [01:16] For information about installing Ubuntu from USB flash drives, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromUSBStick - For a persistent live USB install, see: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LiveUsbPendrivePersistent [01:16] dtchen: what do i need to change in that file ?

[01:31] is it possible to restart the pulse-audio device w/o reboot ? [01:31] CiPHER_, or at least I have had similar symptoms after using rhythmbox from what appears to be a grab. [01:32] vasser FYI pulse and alsa both have channels with more specific help on sound, but they are a bit slow at times [01:32] vasser, sudo /etc/init.d/pulseaudio restart [01:32] jdu: thanks [01:32] jdu:ok but if I have never used rythmbox then that wouldnt be the issue correct? And another mouse I tried worked fine. So maybe try to turn off the window managers? [01:33] how do i install ACPI_TOSHIBA on my system ?

You are sure no one is grabbing your mouse (remotely) I have done it to someone else before. === ThomasHC1 is now known as ThomasHC [01:35] instead of installing kubuntu 8.04 and then xfce4, could I install xubuntu, and then kde 3.5 from there ? [01:36] anom01y, yes. install kubuntu-desktop. [01:36] jdu:Im almost positive,it has been doing this since I had it on the live CD when I first put it on...So unless someone managed to do it 5 minutes after I started running jaunty then no [01:36] anom01y, on later ubuntus ofcourse, that would result in kde 4 [01:37] jdu: when you install kubuntu does gnome gets deleted ? [01:37] Armageddon, no. they are both there. You can select which you want to use at the login screen. [01:37] nice [01:38] Hi, I am from China...

[01:39] mzo...thanks [01:39] anom01y, as long as 8.04 is still supported when you are getting the 'stuff' [01:40] jdu:The closesst I have come to solving this issue is the fact that there is no configuration option for core pointer or mouse in xorg file yet when I try to add one it does not save...could this be the issue do you know? [01:40] I can not see downsized applications on my panel, after i downsize the window. [01:40] Armageddon, unfortunately know. I am mostly dell. [01:41] can anyone help me with this problem? [01:42] CiPHER_, xorg no longer requires xorg.conf for that now, though it may be you can assign an option to fix your problem.

[02:42] licky654, odd. So have you tried restoring the default config? [02:46] jdu: ok, but it seems not to help. there is a screen after bootin that shows the ubuntu-logo and some hovering progress-bar. after that it simply switches to black and is stuck there. How can I switch off that screen so I can see what happens behind it?

[02:53] abalone, there are multiple files that define the layouts etc. You can create a .Xmodmap file as well. [02:54] The thing is that I already have a working layout, I just don't know how to make X use it (it always uses "de" and I have no idea where it's getting that "instruction" from) [02:54] jdu: ok will check menu.lst [02:55] tokyoahead, but clicking the combinations for virtual terminals mentioned earlier will cause it to disappar. [02:55] hi! yesterday i got a tip from someone here (sorry i forgot his/her nickname) about gparted, so i used it, and repartionated my Hd, after the partioning was done, i logged on windows, and thought it was too slow.. i defragged it, and got 40gb (i never thought i'd get more than 100mb).. so i think gparted rearrenged my files on linux too.. so isn't there the risk that linux got fragmented? [02:56] Do I have to recompile the kernel to remove the bluetooth config I see in Dmesg? I've uninstalled all the BT packages?

[03:20] :( [03:20] nah, how do i use that command? [03:20] myself: see what alsamixer is set to in terminal [03:20] just type in alsamixer and then put up all the volume controls [03:21] J-_, did you say which filesystem it is?

[03:21] jdu: no [03:21] hmm the master is at 100 [03:22] I downloaded a ttf from a website. How do I install it? [03:22] i wanted it to be a bit higher than that [03:22] wolfwalker: sure you want verizon wireless? i think youll regret it when dsl is so cheap [03:22] * jdu looks up ext3 mount options [03:22] !fonts | Chowder [03:22] Chowder: Font installation basics here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FontInstallHowto - No fonts in Flash?

[03:25] I changed some in sources.list in live cd, but after I install ubuntu using my own live cd, sources.list is recovered to the default one.

[03:25] jdu: boot option? How? [03:25] nothing else appears to be using them, as they shouldn't since they don't actually exist [03:25] howdy all [03:25] so i've read installing (dual boot) a 64-bit Ubuntu and a 32-bit XP is possible - can anyone confirm?

Now I get a grainy pixelated ogg when I record. Anyone have this issue? [03:26] J-_, the device and the mount point may need to change. [03:26] !hi | VoodooDance [03:26] VoodooDance: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu! [03:26] :) [03:26] VoodooDance, no, but have you tried wink?

[03:27] J-_, yes [03:27] !wink > VoodooDance [03:27] VoodooDance, please see my private message [03:27] J-_, mkdir /mnt/point all this requires root (so sudo) [03:27] <|freddy|> Jihui_Choi: GUI or thru terminal? [03:28] jdu: mount: special device /dev/sdb1 does not exist [03:28] someone really ought to make www.whatdoallthesemodulesdoanyway.com [03:28] wolfwalker: taken a look at dslreports.com? [03:28] |freddy|: I use uck, but I use terminal [03:28] J-_, that was just a guess. This is an external drive? [03:28] they'd make a killing on google adwords [03:28] not gui [03:28] <|freddy|> why dont you use brasero? [03:28] <|freddy|> it works good [03:28] I mean, what is a tileblit? it sounds vaguely dirty [03:28] jdu: Yes [03:29] jdu: I also think I assinged a UUID. [03:29] J-_, does it only have one filesystem on it or multiple? [03:29] jdu: Just one. === NavadeHo is now known as NvdH|Away [03:29] anyway I check there is my own sources.list in my live cd. But when I install using it, the sourcelist is changed to the default. [03:29] just a little page with each module name listed, what device it drives and what you possibly lose if you blacklist it [03:29] |freddy|: I'm making livd cd for korean people. [03:29] not for me. :) [03:30] jdu, you may be able to use that, I guess. But when you attached the drive, a device should have appeared in /dev. It is probably /dev/sdc1 if it is not /dev/sdb1 [03:30] J-_, that was meant to you obviously. [03:30] jdu: Yes. [03:30] J-_, at any rate. you can do ls /dev | grep sd [03:31] J-_, to see what hard drive devices are available. [03:31] Is there any channel for this? live cd or developers [03:31] J [03:31] J-_, or probably just do UUID=blabla instead. [03:32] J-_, so to clarify: the dmask=0022 option should instruct the permissions of directories to be 755. [03:33] Jihui_Choi: the process you are most likely trying to do is called "remastering". [03:33] jdu: weird. Let me pastebin my fstab. there's an error on line 16 [03:33] ok [03:33] Jihui_Choi: that's basically creating a modified copy of an existing live cd [03:34] jdu: http://pastebin.ca/1424304 [03:34] Oh well, thanks anyway. [03:34] Hello, I am looking for someone who knows where I can get free inserts for a DVD case about Ubuntu? [03:34] Jihui_Choi: if you search an internet search engine for 'remaster' and 'ubuntu you should find some instructions [03:34] Piet: But I checked there is a modified copy in my distro. [03:35] to install a graphics card driver is sudo dpkg -i file.deb right? [03:35] Jihui_Choi: remastersys builds live cds and has a support forum at http://loscompanion.com/forums/index.php?board=58.0/ [03:35] I think when I install ubuntu, installing system backup a modified copy and make the default one [03:35] Jihui_Choi: a modified copy of what in which distro? [03:35] J-_, the $ should not be there. Change it to two zeros with a space inbetween. [03:35] Piet: in the distro which I made. [03:36] jdu: I guess I should restart now then? [03:36] jdu: Looks like a totally different problem though. [03:36] sdasdsddasdsdadadad :) [03:36] Jihui_Choi: uuh, i think you're loosing me [03:36] J-_, no [03:36] jdu: hmm [03:36] J-_, do swapoff then swapon [03:36] I made a distro by myself. and I modified the sources.list. [03:36] J-_, I meant no to restarting [03:36] :( I cant find the driver for Intel Corporation Mobile GM965/GL960 Integrated Graphics Controller. ny one know where i can find it? [03:37] J-_, so sudo swapoff; sudo swapon -a [03:37] J-_, so is either /dev/sda4 or /dev/sda2 the drive that you can't access? [03:37] jdu: I just did 2 commands, "sudo swapoff -a" and "swapon -a" [03:38] J-_, then do swapon -s [03:38] J-_, if something appears, then you know that swap is working. [03:38] <|freddy|> aptana wont run on this distro? anyone have heard something about it? [03:38] dominoeffekt: should be intelfb [03:39] Piet: intelfb? [03:39] adasdads [03:39] jdu: The problem isn't with swap though. I tried to exit nano. I had /etc/fstab up, after it closed it said there was an error on like 16. Which is totally unrelated since my swap is on my internal drive rather than my external. [03:39] dominoeffekt: well quoted [03:39] can you tune-up ubuntu? [03:39] I want to install the proprietary Nvidia drivers for 9600 GT. Is nvidia-glx-180 what I need? Do I also need nvidia-180-kernel-source? [03:39] Please somebody. I am addicted to Counter Strike. I need somebody to take my account. [03:39] jdu: And, it looks like my external drive isn't even in fstab. [03:40] J-_, correct, but now swap is fixed because it must have gotten messed up when editing fstab [03:40] how can I do a while loop while a given command fails... like "while [ mount /mnt/cdrom ]".... keep doing the while loop until the command works? [03:40] Piet: sry. i do not know what u mean by intelfb. I got ubuntu to day. always been running windows. so i do not understand mutch about how to install and sutch [03:40] jdu: Or, someone got into my computer somehow and changed stuff. [03:40] J-_, so to discover what device it is: plug it in. run: sudo parted then at the prompt: print all [03:40] dominoe, can you see your desktop? [03:41] Linuz2009: you can disable daemons you don't need, change to a less resource hungry window manager, remove unneeded applications etc. [03:41] jdu: Yeah the device isn't there. :) [03:41] Piet: what's a daemon? [03:41] x33b: yes [03:41] Hi, I'm trying to get FireGPG's sign and encrypt feature to work with Gmail, and I've made it do so with a fresh Firefox profile. I'm trying to isolate what could be the problem on my original profile, and so I've removed every other add-on (except for FireGPG), but it still doesn't work. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. [03:41] J-_, if you want to be paranoid... does some one know your password? at any rate. with the previous command you will get a listing of all your partitions. Find the one that matches the filesystem you want to mount. [03:41] Linuz2009: a background process [03:42] Dominoe - is it behaving strange? Like graphic glictches? or does it seem to be working ok? [03:42] dominoeffekt: oh i see. intelfb is the name of a linux driver module. [03:42] I want to install the proprietary Nvidia drivers for 9600 GT. Is nvidia-glx-180 what I need? Do I also need nvidia-180-kernel-source? [03:42] x33b: acually its fine [03:42] then you don't need a driver :D [03:42] sure? :D [03:42] dominoeffekt: it should already come with ubuntu, if i'm not mistaken. [03:42] J-_, It will say: Disk /dev/sXX note what XX is. Then note the partition number below. [03:42] dominoe - yes, ubuntu comes with the drivers ready to go [03:43] J-_, with that info, you can retry the mount command. [03:43] Ah!:D damn. you guys made my day!:d [03:43] jdu: No one knows my password, no. My partition I want isn't listed there. I'm thinking the drive is fried, or the external case is garbage. [03:43] hah thanks!:D [03:43] Piet: so you meaning turning, does that imply that I need to switch to one color similar process as windows? [03:43] J-_, perhaps. But you said you chmod -R 644 right? [03:43] Hello @ all. I have a problem concerning my sound card. It seems, that the mixer doesn't work. I cannot watch movies with sound and at the same moment talk in skype or listen music... lspci says, its a 00:1e.2 Multimedia audio controller: Intel Corporation 82801FB/FBM/FR/FW/FRW (ICH6Family) AC'97 Audio Controller (rev 03) [03:43] right now I'm using ALSA in audio settings... Do some of you have an idea, how to make my sound ran? [03:44] jdu: chmod 640 [03:44] J-_, If you did that. to the drive, you would have made it impossible to access, because directories must be executable. [03:44] where are most of the applications stored? [03:44] Linuz2009: i read this sentence zwice but i don't get wgat you are trying to ask, sorry. [03:44] J-_, ok 640 the same result in this case. [03:44] Linuz2009: i read this sentence twice but i don't get what you are trying to ask, sorry. [03:44] J-_, directories should be 755 [03:44] Linuz2009: and sorry for my bad spelling, too [03:45] Hello, how is everyone doing? [03:45] Hi everyone! Nice friday night right? [03:45] LoL [03:45] Piet: okay let me put it this way, in windows you can turn to window classic to optimize speed and switch the background to gray or none but in ubuntu how can I turn off the background? [03:45] J-_, so, It seems odd that the disk would die right at that moment; much more likely you just need to mount it with dmask=0022 or similar [03:45] galvanize: in /usr/bin. Why do you ask....? [03:46] henninger: if you can only use one audio application/output at a time, this is usually not a driver/hardware issue but you just lack asound server, such as pulseaudio [03:46] Linuz2009: there are many many options for this level of customization [03:46] losher: I want right click and use oepn with... [03:46] open* [03:46] I'm having a problem with Apache 2, I'm getting a Forbbiden 403 on an local application and this is what I get on the browser [03:46] Linuz2009, change the background to a solid color. [03:47] jdu: Not sure if you seen, but prior to all of this I asked what permission my external drive would be... I wanted, root: read and write, user: read, everyone else: none. Put I didn't know it needed to be executeable. so I went with 640, in which I think I wanted 740. [03:47] jdu: can I mount with a UUID? [03:47] galvanize: ok. But the menus are there so you don't have to do that, in general... [03:47] piet: ok, i never heard about this before... I'm gonna try that. Thanks so far :) [03:47] Actually, I don't even know the UUID. [03:47] J-_, yes. Directories should be executable and files not ;( [03:47] [Fri May 15 21:14:25 2009] [crit] [client 127.0.0.1] (13)Permission denied: /home/jorge/.htaccess pcfg_openfile: unable to check htaccess file, ensure it is readable [03:47] Linuz2009: the desktop itself the desktop enviroment is gnome. if you type ps -A in a terminal youll see gnome-session gnome-panel etc. you can switch window managers and stilluse gnome or even choose to not use gnome but use xubuntu instead (xfce rather than gnome) or even a really slim window manager like icewm [03:47] [Fri May 15 21:14:25 2009] [crit] [client 127.0.0.1] (13)Permission denied: /home/jorge/.htaccess pcfg_openfile: unable to check htaccess file, ensure it is readable [03:47] J_Wesker: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. [03:48] Linuz2009: ah, now I understand. yes, this is one thing you can do: you can deactivate compiz for example. this can alread remarkably increase speed of the window manager. [03:48] J-_, minimally in fstab, I have not ever used an UUID with a standard mount command. Try! [03:48] losher: right, but instead of downloading something and using it in an application I want to just open it withe application [03:48] anyone any advice about apache 2 permissions? [03:48] Linuz2009: you can also change the background image or decrease the overall color depth [03:48] J-_, and I don't have any drives to test it on that are ext3 [03:48] galvanize: so is there a specific app you're trying to run? [03:49] J-_, that aren't already mounted. [03:49] jdu: I first need to find out the UUID, but if it's not mounted. I can't really. :P [03:49] losher: yes, ktorrent. trying to open a torrent from firefox rather than downloading the .torrent and then opening ktorrent. [03:49] Linuz2009: but what I meant iniitally is that you can replace the complete window manager, known as gnome, by another which is less resource hungry. [03:49] I don't think I can anyway [03:49] Linuz2009: this can be fluxbox, openwm, wmii, ratware, or whatever. [03:49] J-_, I find it hard to believe you can't find the device name. That is a prerequisite for the UUID with vol_id anyway, right? [03:50] J-_, assuming the drive works, something should appear either with parted or in /dev when the drive is plugged in. [03:50] galvanize: ok, you can open a terminal and type "which ktorrent". That will tell you exactly where ktorrent is... [03:50] thanks everyone I get it now so is there also another way to tune-up ubuntu? [03:51] losher: oh great thanks. [03:51] hello [03:51] J-_, sudo sfdisk -l will give a list of partitions and their devices. [03:51] does anybody know how help enable the temp sensors on a macbook 5,1? [03:51] guys, anyone has problems accessing ttys since jaunty? [03:51] Linuz2009: but before you start on "tweaking" you should be aware which changes actually make sense for your system. start by checking the current resource utilization [03:51] Hi, I'm trying to get FireGPG's sign and encrypt feature to work with Gmail, and I've made it do so with a fresh Firefox profile. I'm trying to isolate what could be the problem on my original profile, and so I've removed every other add-on (except for FireGPG), but it still doesn't work.

[03:51] Piet: how about the app remove orphans === rouva is now known as abalone [03:52] Linuz2009, you might remove services you don't need. bluetooth for example if you don't have it.

[03:55] when i access ttys from gnome, my screen starts flashing but doesnt show ttys, even though they are there [03:55] jdu: hmm, yeah. Not there. :) I don't know dude. This external enclosure is under warranty, so I think I may take it back tomorrow and see if that's the verdict. Thanks for the help. :) [03:55] donald: I don't have a macbook but I may know the terms. What don't you understand? [03:55] Classic: I can try, but the fact that I haven't seen any complaints about ttys doesn't make me an expert on them :-( [03:55] donald, what terms? [03:55] ok hold on [03:55] donald: Feel free to link us to the article. I'm not very familiar with Macbook installs of Ubuntu, but I'm sure people do it. [03:55] MacMoose: it's utf-8, though some programs might use latin1 [03:55] how do I make ubuntu accept my root password for taskts that require sudo? [03:55] J-_, too bad it couldn't be fixed. No problem, and good luck! [03:55] acm: you use your password, not root's [03:56] acm, you have to assign root password first before you can sudo [03:56] well its at this link https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MacBook5-1/Jaunty [03:56] okay, I found my service settings and removing app is probably is a good method. I've installed Fslint in my computer that detects duplicate files, and remove orphan [03:56] FloodBot2 why? [03:56] sevodnya: So if I mount a volume without specifying any mount options utf8 gets used? [03:56] hi [03:56] Classic, rather sudo uses user password. [03:56] MacMoose: what filesystem? [03:56] classic: i created a root password, but when i try to do priveleged tasks, it still only accepts my sudo password [03:56] sevodnya: NTFS [03:57] yea, you are right jdu [03:57] i watnt to do admin tasks with my root pass [03:57] donald: what don't you understand in the article?

[03:58] i can log in as root [03:58] donald: type exactly the next line in your terminal and it will open an editor, then paste the line below that into the editor and save. [03:58] Classic: it just requires that that user has access in /etc/sudoers or a group in that file [03:58] acm: you shouldn't do that [03:58] Classic: lstarnes is right about the sudo stuff... [03:58] classic: however when i try to open synaptic package manager, it wont accept my root pass [03:58] but by the time I enable my wireless interface, I have no internet anymore [03:58] ok so first i enter the first line into the terminal [03:59] Fslint had been reviewed as safe as KleanSweeper [03:59] so what you guys are saying, is sudo and at password prompt you put in regular user password? [03:59] lstarnes: why? [03:59] jjibn: http://www.gnu.org and go to philosphey section [03:59] gksudo gedit /etc/modules [03:59] donald: Just so you know, if you're questions don't get resolved here, there is a subforum of Ubuntu Forums especially for Apple Users at http://ubuntuforums.org/forumdisplay.php?f=328 . [03:59] acm: it makes it easier to crack into the root account [03:59] Classic: yes [03:59] jdu: Weird. blkid shows: /dev/sdb1: SEC_TYPE="msdos" LABEL="KINGSTON" UUID="E0FD-1813" TYPE="vfat" [03:59] Classic, for better or worse, yes [03:59] hello [03:59] what is Linux [03:59] hm.... for me its root passwd somehow [03:59] jk [03:59] hi williamd [03:59] then this came up [03:59] jdu: Is that normal when it's not executeable? [03:59] its how i've been doing it for 15 years... [03:59] hello evanrmurphy [03:59] sevodnya: Any idea why specifying UTF8 works, but not specifying it gets wrong characters? I can only assume diffrent encoding? [03:59] i dont want to start using sudo [03:59] Reading package lists... Done [03:59] Building dependency tree [03:59] Reading state information... Done [03:59] E: Couldn't find package applesmc-dkms [03:59] J-_, is that all it shows for /dev/sdb ? [03:59] donald: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. [03:59] williamd: a kernel :) [03:59] MacMoose: the documentation suggests it uses utf-8 by default, but if it doesn't work for you, definitely do specify it manually [03:59] then whats the point of sudo if anyone can do it [03:59] sebner, ha [04:00] !linux | williamd [04:00] williamd: Linux is the kernel (core) of the Ubuntu operating system. Many operating systems use Linux as kernel. For more information on Linux in general, visit http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linux [04:00] jdu: Yes. [04:00] did you run sudo apt-get install applesmc-dkms in the terminal [04:00] Poet, I was kidding [04:00] ? [04:00] sevodnya: is there a way to get the OS to return what encoding is being used? [04:00] J-_, because vfat will not store linux permissions anyway. [04:00] sudo apt-get install Linux [04:00] Hi, I'm trying to get FireGPG's sign and encrypt feature to work with Gmail, and I've made it do so with a fresh Firefox profile. I'm trying to isolate what could be the problem on my original profile, and so I've removed every other add-on (except for FireGPG), but it still doesn't work. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. === rouva is now known as abalone [04:00] Classic: sudo only allows those in the admin group to perform actions as root [04:00] jdu: It wasn't vfat in the first place. [04:00] J-_, In other words, that doesn't look like ext3... [04:01] so there is no way to make the privleged packages like synaptic package manager accept my root password? [04:01] J-_, can you mount it? [04:01] aha, maybe acm didnt add his user to that group [04:01] sevodnya: If I mount with no options, then make a folder, it looks fine. Then when I mount as UTF8, its messed up, and vise versa [04:01] MacMoose: try running the command "mount" (no arguments) in a terminal [04:01] acm: there is. Why do you want to do that? [04:01] hello [04:01] classic: its default when you install for the first account [04:01] flannel: b/c I dont like using sudo for everything. i accept the risk. how would i go about doing it? [04:01] jdu: It was... ext3. It says it's already mounted. [04:01] thx it is a long way:) [04:01] acm: well, it'd still ask you for a password... it would just be looking for the root password instead. [04:02] MacMoose: you need to decide whether you want it mounted as UTF-8 or not, and stick with one or the other; switching between encodings will cause filename corruption [04:02] jdu: mount: /dev/sdb1 already mounted or /media/external_ busy [04:02] I just took an update (update manager) .. My webserver (apache2) now only works for a few minutes and then no longer brings up pages. I also can't ssh into the box. I can connect out and some cron jobs that access the net are working fine. Any thoughts? [04:02] acm: You'd still have to use sudo, etc. [04:02] acm, in general, with ubuntu, no one has a root password, If you were to create one, I'm sure you could use it. [04:02] lets make a new room called Ubuntwo [04:02] acm: the alternative is to just set a root password, and then use su, just like elsewhere. [04:02] jdu: also mount: according to mtab, /dev/sdb1 is already mounted on /media/external_ [04:02] J-_, what does the output of "mount" say [04:02] i did create a root password! but jaunty is not accepting it when i try to use the admin tools [04:02] a lot of other distros use sudo [04:02] donald: you have to add the repo for the files you want to install https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MactelSupportTeam/PPA#Installation << this link will tell you how to install the repository that has the files you want. [04:02] donald: did you get it? [04:02] acm: then use your user password [04:02] J-_, regarding what filesystem it is mounted as? [04:02] i guess you can su root when doing lots of tasks at that level acm [04:03] lstarnes: Do they? I thought Ubuntu was basically the only one that used sudo [04:03] acm: That's because the admin tools use *sudo*. You'd need to start a root shell, and invoke the tools, to do it without sudo. [04:03] jdu, acm: the problem is that admin tools from the menus call gksudo, not gksu, so they'll only accept non-root passwords [04:03] sevodnya, good point. [04:03] donald: oops... did not see the others helping too... follow thier advice if mine is different [04:03] sebsebseb: most other distros have sudo [04:03] sevodnya: I understand this. I just want to understand what ecoding is being used by ubuntu/truecrypt :P [04:03] sevodnya: no, that's not true. gksu and gksudo are one and the same. [04:03] jdu: I can pastebin it, but the line I want(I think) is: /dev/sdb1 on /media/external_ type ext3 (rw,nosuid,nodev,uhelper=hal) [04:03] sebsebseb: usually in their repos [04:03] jdu: no, it's incorrect. [04:03] sebsebseb: nah, sudo has been around for a good long time, at least a decade or more... [04:03] lstarnes: and I guess other distros based on Ubuntu may be using sudo. sure in the repo, but I meant by default [04:03] Flannel, ok bad point :/ [04:03] ok i am stil trying hopefully my problem with be solved here [04:04] Flannel: correct, but depending which way you invoke it, the behavior is different, at least for me [04:04] losher: yeah I know since 1979 or something [04:04] I guess there is no way to identify what encoding is being used for a particular mount? [04:04] MacMoose: if you want to know which one is being used at the moment, try running mount [04:04] jdu: What I might do is, umount /media/external_, delete /media/external I just created. And remount, or hope it remounts. [04:04] acm: You'll need to modify /etc/sudoers to enable you to enter a root password. [04:04] so the answer is i can't get the admin tools to accept my root pasword? [04:04] flannel: how so? [04:04] acm: No, you just have to modify /etc/sudoers to enable sudo to accept a root password. [04:04] donald: it is all a series of simple steps, you have plenty of help in the wiki, forum and here. You'll solve it. [04:05] sevodnya: Mount shows nothing about encoding. Since I specified nothing, I assume its defaulting to something. it only tells me if I use an option,. [04:05] J-_, odd. but blkid said it was vfat. Now that you mention it. I have a /dev/sdb1 with blkid that also says it is vfat and I have no external drive attached. [04:05] somebody have a tutorial to install kiba dock on ubuntu 9.04? [04:05] J-_, and /dev/sda3 says it is ext2 with blkid even though it is ext3 [04:05] jdu: I just did ls /media/external_ and it's listing the files. [04:05] thedoor: kiba dock? never even heard of that one. cairo dock and avant window manager though sure [04:05] acm: man sudoers will give you all the gorey details. Look into rootpw [04:05] J-_, perhaps it is better to use something other than blkid in this case. [04:05] sevodnya: /dev/mapper/truecrypt9 on /media/truecrypt9 type vfat (rw,uid=1001,gid=1001,umask=077).... See? nothing [04:06] J-_, good, so problem is solved. [04:06] hi everyone, new user here. i can't get my sound to work and i really have no idea where to look after searching all over the web, anyone available to point me in the right direction? [04:06] ok, so i went to that wiki and it says make sure i have these lines in the etc/apt/sources.list but i have no clue wat that is [04:06] sevodnya: unless its using windows-1252 or something gay [04:06] * abalone can't see anyone's nicknames anymore :/ [04:06] Can I ask a question about 9.04 refusing to print on legal size paper? [04:06] MacMoose: Please don't use that term pejoratively. [04:06] MacMoose: if it's not showing an option, it's iso-8859-1 -- note that that's a FAT partition, not NTFS. [04:06] anyone has problems with new notification system in jaunty? like slow response when you increase decrease sound? [04:06] sebastien, oh thanks, cairo dock do the same work, and the repository of jaunty have this, thank u so much :D [04:06] Flannel: My appologies. It won't happen again. [04:06] classic: i have that [04:07] thedoor: not sure if cairo is in the repo, but avant is. however cario is meant to be better than avant [04:07] MacMoose: "Please don't use that term pejoratively." +1 [04:07] i wonder if there's a fix for that [04:07] I just took an update (update manager) .. My webserver (apache2) now only works for a few minutes and then no longer brings up pages. I also can't ssh into the box. I can connect out and some cron jobs that access the net are working fine. [04:07] me too, its rather annoying [04:07] MacMoose: "Please don't use that term pejoratively." +2 [04:07] jdu: not yet. :P I need to rm -R /media/external && umount /media/external_ && mount /media/external/. I'll do it per command though. [04:07] ye, maybe turning it off is a good idea for now, skellington [04:08] my [04:08] I don't need -R [04:08] dustin343: sound issues hummm it may be completly useless or a good start, what I am going to get the bot to pm you. however as a new user you might not quite understand it yet even [04:08] !sound > dustin343 [04:08] dustin343, please see my private message [04:08] how do i do that classic? [04:09] err yeah I do. [04:09] hm.... good question, im gonna find out [04:09] J-_, so you are trying to delete everything on the drive? -r (or -R) is correct [04:09] id like to only turn off the volume one, the other ones come up fine for me [04:09] jdu: It's definitely a faulty case. [04:09] thanks sebseb i'll see what i can do [04:09] jdu: Just deleting an empty directory. [04:10] J-_, sadly cases are often bad. [04:10] dustin343: good luck with that, and when asking for help with such issues, it's good to be more specific, for example by saying if the sound works at all [04:10] hey guys, whats the easiest way to ftp into my desktop computer from my netbook? [04:11] skellington: gftp or something? and a ftp server of course? [04:11] skellington: set up openssh-server, and use sftp [04:11] skellington: nah what Flannel said :) [04:11] Is there an easy way to import various settings (pidgin accounts, firefox bookmark, evolution accounts and e-mails etc.) from my other Ubuntu PC running gutsy gibbon? (I'm running Jaunty) [04:11] I have a problem with the audio ... last night was overshadowed while listening to a streaming vlc Opera and paused on a flash audio streaming ... today I changed the device in system>preferences>audio and I put HDA ATI SB (alsa mixer) and rythmbox rings, but vlc and Opera browserI have a problem with the audio ... last night was overshadowed while listening to a streaming vlc Opera and paused on a flash audio streaming ... today I changed [04:11] device in system>preferences>audio and I put HDA ATI SB (alsa mixer) and rythmbox rings, but vlc and Opera browser are not yet...it feels just noise...any ideas? thanks [04:11] skellington: yeah, what Flannel said... [04:11] I just took an update (update manager) .. My webserver (apache2) now only works for a few minutes and then no longer brings up pages. I also can't ssh into the box. I can connect out and some cron jobs that access the net are working fine. [04:12] jdu: Yeah for sure. I just turned the case off, and back on. Drive isn't spinning. So I guess I can fool around with this POS for a while until it decided it wants to turn on. [04:12] Flannel: though that's not ftp, of course [04:12] well, my desktop has an ftpserver client application on it, but i cant seem to figure out what its ip address is so that i can ftp into it [04:12] Not turn on, but spin. [04:12] lightbricko: unless there is an easier way, just tar/gz up the relevant directories in your home dir and unpack them on the new box [04:12] Piet: No, but it accomplishes the same, and with less hassle. [04:12] is it okay I click on all the options on ubuntu updates [04:12] flannel: im guessing thats the faster alternative... am i right? [04:12] skellington, http://www.killertechtips.com/2009/04/26/disable-notifications-in-ubuntu-904-jaunty-jackalope/ [04:12] GnarlyBob: ok [04:12] Flannel: agreed [04:12] skellington: Its much simpler to set up (and to deal with any port forwarding, etc) yes. [04:13] is there a number that we can call to get support? [04:13] donald: no [04:13] donald, whats your question? [04:13] funny question [04:13] donald: well maybe if your paying for commercial support, but otherwise no [04:13] Can I ask about 9.04 and printing on legal paper? [04:13] anyone got ideas on getting a new wireless connection on a new ubuntu install? [04:13] donald: or consumer support from Canonical then maybe [04:13] donald: 911? [04:13] I just took an update (update manager) .. My webserver (apache2) now only works for a few minutes and then no longer brings up pages. I also can't ssh into the box. I can connect out and some cron jobs that access the net are working fine. [04:13] it seems to associate fine, but doesn't get through DHCP [04:14] canonical offers support packages, don't they? :) [04:14] ok all which kind of lanaguge is widely used in opensource [04:14] Anyone know when (or if it even is possible) that pidgin will get 1. Skype protocol or 2. webcam support for msn protocol? [04:14] thanks classic and flannel [04:14] donald: Only if you have a support contact with Canonical. [04:14] GnarlyBob: of course, but they need to be paid for [04:14] !sound [04:14] skellington welcome :) [04:14] If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3 [04:14] sebsebseb: of course [04:14] donald: If you're looking for more localized/in person/etc support, look into your LoCo team [04:14] !details | mahohmei [04:14] i went throught the install instructions for ubuntu 9.10 for the macbook 5,1 and i tried to enable the sensors and trackpad and everything like it said but still nothing at all happend [04:14] mahohmei: Please give us full details. For example: "I have a problem with ..., I'm running Ubuntu version .... When I try to do ..., I get the following output: ..., but I expected it to do ..." [04:14] it get the feeling that I'm being thwarted by ipv6 but I'm not really sure of that [04:14] which forum can I talk about the language more [04:15] jjibn: #ubuntu-offtopic [04:15] donald, you have macbook 5,1 for sure? [04:15] yes i know for sure 100% [04:15] hello [04:16] the new unibody one i even did the command on here and it came up 5,1 [04:16] thx a lot [04:16] donald, i didnt mean like that, just wanted to know whether that manual was 100 % for you [04:16] Michi_akane: which updates were installed? /var/log/apt/term.log should tell [04:16] so you installed ubuntu ok? [04:16] there were a bunch of them [04:17] so networkmanager shows things as happy... 3/4 bars, selected the correct wireless network, etc. [04:17] o well im on ubuntu on my macbook right now but i had to put it on my desk the fans dont work barely at all so its really hot and i just mainly want the fan to work [04:17] but ifconfig shows no interface with an address [04:17] Michi_akane: can you pastebin this file, please? [04:17] how can i backup config files and my home dir [04:17] i have a lapfan for it but its still hot [04:17] system config files [04:17] * dscherger ejects the wifi card [04:17] Decepticon: why? I mean why back up all that? [04:17] what else is important on my machine? [04:17] Michi_akane: actually the last 200 lines should be sufficient [04:17] Decepticon: you don't need to back all that stuff up [04:17] donald, so your problem is sensors? [04:17] config files cause i dont want to config everything again [04:18] im needing some help.. i have windows but i want to install ubuntu on a second partiton for dual but [04:18] my home dir has my personal configs, and files [04:18] its mainly that but also the trackpad and sound [04:18] needhelp1: ok [04:18] sebsebseb why not [04:18] Decepticon: That's correct. You want to back up /etc and /home [04:18] !backup | Decepticon [04:18] Decepticon: There are many ways to back your system up.

[04:18] Flannel should i back up more [04:18] Decepticon: well you can just back up relivant .folders from home. for example maybe you use Firefox and want your profile backed up and and so .mozilla [04:18] Decepticon: not really necessary. Unless you have stuff in /var/ that you need to back up.

[04:19] Flannel what could be in /var [04:19] sometimes it wont work but besides that it said it should have some multitouch gestures working also [04:19] "...Activation (ath0) Stage 2 of 5 (Device Configuration) complete.

[04:20] but i can live with it [04:20] is this safe.. i dont want to corrupt my windows partition / install [04:20] Linuz2009: I think something that is coming as a normal update, but not quite ready yet. or something like that [04:20] skellington, im halfway through encoding a movie, cant restart to see now:) [04:20] Linuz2009: are you seeing this in the update manager?

[04:21] it said its not found [04:21] needhelp1: if you have no unpartiitoned space you need to make some sure, but Ubuntu's installer can do that for you [04:21] Decepticon: /boot maybe if you modified grub [04:21] Flannel ill take a look around before i only back up that subdir [04:21] ah, you have to enable that repository [04:21] Piet i dont believe i did that, so im ok there [04:21] Linuz2009: proposed updates are ones that are less urgent/security-related than others [04:21] needhelp1: I think, otherwise partition editor on the Ubuntu Live CD is where you can resize [04:22] Michi_akane: are you planning to tell me where or should i wait until it's indexed by a search engine? ;-) [04:22] sevodnya: so should I update the following package?

[04:24] Linuz2009: iirc, those are for backports: [04:24] Hey everyone [04:24] needhelp1: There are 3rd party products e.g. ghost which will allow full backup from 'metal'. Since you're apparently a beginner, I think you'd be mad not to make a full backup before you go messing with partitions.... [04:24] i have d/l'ed and burned to cd [04:24] !backports Linuz2009 [04:24] Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) [04:24] !backports | Linuz2009 [04:24] Linuz2009: If new updated Ubuntu packages are built for an application, then they may go into Ubuntu Backports.

How can I install Ubuntu on MSI 630x laptop? I can't start from liveCD, alweys got busybox... some problem with SATA driver. [04:25] well thanks a lot, sebsebseb Flannel and Piet for telling me what to back up :) [04:25] needhelp1: ok well if you still have the ISO you can md5sum it, to make sure you got a good download [04:26] Piet: http://paste.ubuntu.com/173385/ [04:26] i do..how do i do that [04:26] disappearedng: can you pastebin the output of aptitude search php ? [04:26] Decepticon: ok no problem [04:26] How can I install Ubuntu on MSI 630x laptop? I can't start from liveCD, alweys got busybox... some problem with SATA driver. [04:26] Michi_akane: it helps if you prefix your lines with 'Piet: ' whenever you talk to me, this way I don't miss what you're telling me. [04:26] sevodnya cause I still have php cli [04:26] nvm I am reinstalling everything [04:26] Michi_akane: ah you just realized ;-) [04:26] i used HDA ATI SB (alsa mixer) in recent moths with no problem...now rhythmbox rings with HDA ATI SB (ALSA MIXER)...VLC and Opera not yet...may be device driver damaged? I received a message that the audio device was committed by another application... [04:27] Michi_akane: so your last update run was at 2009-05-15 15:32:14 [04:27] needhelp1: you can with a program on Windows after you installed, or on the Ubuntu CD when it has access to the Windows partition [04:27] Michi_akane: the one before that was 2009-05-12 08:31:30 [04:27] Michi_akane: and you say the problems started after 2009-05-15 15:32:14? [04:28] can someone tell me what's wrong with my php? how do I fix this http://pastie.org/479826 [04:28] is there anyway that a 13 year old could do this because im very new to all this and its very confuisng [04:28] Alek_86: I'm not sure you can do an install. If you have SATA driver problems, and your disk is SATA, I don't see how you're ever going to be able to read/write it... [04:28] Piet: The problems started with the 5/15 15:32 update [04:28] needhelp1: have you got any data on there to backup? [04:29] donald: do what? I missed it, also that's a nice age to start using Ubuntu at [04:29] Just installed Jaunty. Which are the "very common" restricted packages I should consider installing? Any other than flashplugin and restricted extras? [04:29] donald [04:29] yes? [04:29] sebsebseb: i dono im lost [04:29] losher, hard drive is working... but ubuntu can't start... is there a way to trick it somehow? :S [04:29] ok, from what i understand, they dont have regular repositories yet for mactel support [04:29] jamal [04:30] needhelp1: ok 1. backup data in Windows just in case the partitining goes wrong later on, which is unlikely [04:30] however, they have launchpad repos [04:30] needhelp1: 2. boot the computer from Live CD and come back here [04:30] i think you can try to enable those and see if that works [04:30] needhelp1: or just follow the installer through and install it [04:30] go here https://launchpad.net/~mactel-support/+archive/ppa [04:30] ok, im a 13 year old boy who just installed ubuntu 9.10 on his unibody macbook 5,1 and is currently on it and completley new to ubuntu and is trying to get the "bugs" out of it, for example the fan is very very low and the sound doesnt work [04:31] sebsebseb: brb [04:31] Michi_akane: have you rebooted after the upgrade? [04:32] Piet: Yes [04:32] donald: that means you got to configure stuff, and not that many of us run Ubuntu on Mac, I don't [04:32] Michi_akane: also, do you actually use firestarter? [04:32] disappearedng: looks like your libraries are missing...probably need to reinstall php [04:32] donald, click system > administration > software sources [04:32] robdig I just did a purge [04:32] Michi_akane: and is it configured to allow those inbound connections? [04:32] what's the command for running clamav? [04:32] Piet: I did not install that until afterwards [04:32] Linuz2009: heh [04:32] Alek_86: You might try googling your 'puter to see if there are known problems (and workarounds) for your PC... [04:32] ok im in software sources [04:33] Linuz2009: I remember you :) we already talked before about how antivirus isn't really needed with Linux distros, except for scanning for Windows viruses, that won't infect Linux distros anyway [04:33] !virus [04:33] A/V software is available, however read this to understand why Linux does not have a virus problem: http://librenix.com/?inode=21 [04:33] Piet: I was trying to troubleshoot this thing. [04:33] donald: I think you've done really well to get this far with your install, btw... [04:33] now do click on third party [04:33] disappearedng: well...that would remove the package [04:33] well thanks losher [04:33] i thought i was off to a not so good start [04:34] then click add [04:34] Michi_akane: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Firestarter#Stalled connections [04:34] donald: no, you've done really well. As someone pointed out, you configuration isn't a very common one, so we don't have much experience with it... [04:34] well instead of viruses how about other malicious software, rootkit, trojans, spyware/adware...etc? [04:34] then paste first line of code deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/mactel-support/ppa/ubuntu jaunty main [04:34] When I'm doing a lot of administrative tasks, is it possible to "remember" the password the entire session so I don't need to type it in all the time? Or is there an alternative, such as loggin in as root? [04:34] wait, add wat [04:34] Michi_akane: i recommend you "aptitude purge firestarter" for now since it adds comlexity which makes debugging more difficult [04:35] Linuz2009: trojans and worms go under the virus label both of them [04:35] click add [04:35] so im supposed to be in the third party sofware tab? [04:35] Linuz2009: rootkits rather unlikely to have any in your Ubuntu unless somone brakes into your computer [04:35] yes [04:35] sebsebseb: does cookies count as a spyware? [04:35] sebsebseb: before i go and start the install.. do i need to check the md5sum now before.. or later? [04:35] hello [04:36] Linuz2009: no [04:36] Howdy all [04:36] ok thanks so now i clicked add [04:36] needhelp1: your on the Live CD now or?

If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) [04:36] does anyone know how to get recordmydesktop to record the sound of the application you are recording? I can get it to record the mic but not the app... [04:36] sebsebseb: so Linux can't be infected with spyware too?

[04:37] now press add source to close that [04:38] or from the live cd? [04:38] then add another source [04:38] the add source button is gray and wont let me click [04:38] needhelp1: as long as you shut Windows down properly, you can md5sum the ISO on the Live CD yeah [04:38] this time add this line : deb-src http://ppa.launchpad.net/mactel-support/ppa/ubuntu jaunty main [04:38] how lol?

[12:57] hyper_ch: Probably Debian bug numbers [12:57] I want to help someone on a Windows machine, but I'm running Ubuntu. What's the best remote desktop software to have them install? I know about VNC, but it seems klunky to me. [12:57] jrib: everybody has laptops [12:58] Nicke: thx, I'll check that then [12:58] Stanlin: yeah, hook it up to the big screen tv [12:58] as in, i've installed the nvidia proprietary drivers, and it's only letting me choose from two resolutions: 320x240 and 640x480 [12:58] Stanlin: then use ethernet only in the living room [12:58] hyper_ch: For example, http://bugs.debian.org/465902 :) [12:58] Stanlin: or limit their wireless time. But #ubuntu-offtopic I guess [12:58] good idea [12:58] fructose: vnc is probably the easiest though.. also look at freenx [12:58] i've looked in the xorg.conf file, and it's got hardly anything in it. just generic stuff like 'configured display' etc, nothing that says 'nvidia' or anything [12:58] or make their background a picture of grandma/jesus [12:58] so, does anyone have an idea how the hell i can get my card working? [12:58] Slart: OK, but which VNC is best for Windows? [12:59] Nicke: you were quicker than me looking it up :) thx [12:59] fructose: they are all good "enough" [12:59] hyper_ch: Had a similar url cached in Firefox ;) np [12:59] zephism: pastebin your /var/log/xorg.0.conf [12:59] Stanlin: by the way, I came late, but Ubuntu Christian Edition has filtering setup by default iirc. So you can see how it's setup there maybe [12:59] Slart: Well, is there one that's free OSS and easy to set up? [12:59] fructose: realvnc worked well for me .. of course you could use remote desktop, but then the remote end won't be able to see what you're doing [12:59] Ubuntu Chrisitan Edition? ...lol [12:59] i end up with this error message after an unexpected shut down because of power supply interruption!: Failed to contact configuration server; some possible causes are that you need to enable TCP/IP networking for ORBit, or you have stale NFS locks due to a system crash.

[14:02] platius| i know what you say [14:02] hi, I messed around with partitions and I earased the partition with windows. Now I need help reinstalling grub again... can someone lead me through this_ [14:02] halo [14:02] i know wìhow to do this [14:02] but i want to install just some of the plugin included in the plugins pack [14:02] ijn, if you dont want all hte plugins that you get in gnome-do-plugins, then you need to compile it yourself i think [14:02] cntix [14:02] anybody having ATI Rodeon graphics card problems? [14:03] ijn; when you follow my instructions you may check or uncheck the plugins you want to use [14:03] kQ: what can we help you with? [14:03] platius, ijns issue is that installing it in the first place brings in dependancies of evoltuion [14:03] !pinning | tzanger [14:03] tzanger: pinning is an advanced feature that APT can use to prefer particular packages over others. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PinningHowto [14:03] kQ try modprobe radeon, see if it solves your problem [14:03] yes but after install gnome-do plugins pack you can check or uncheck as u say but evolution is installed in your system [14:03] my graphics card crashes [14:03] ill try [14:04] ijn; sorry can't help you [14:04] is it possible to upgrade from dapper to intrepid directly using a cd ?? [14:04] and i dont want evolution [14:04] kQ: are you using the non-free driver? [14:04] ubottu: danke [14:04] ijn: you can enable/disable gnome-do plugins through it's preference once it is installed.. [14:04] Sorry, I don't know anything about danke [14:04] pronoy: no you can go drapper --> hardy as both are LTS [14:04] ijn, look into compiling it yourself, the other option is that the plugins may be just python scripts yo ucan run from a ~/. type folder [14:04] possibly [14:04] i havnt dl'd anything yet [14:04] tzanger: you can disable automatic updates in System-Admin [14:04] ijn: ah, that is a problem. I believe the developers are working on it. [14:04] erUSUL: so first from drapper to hardy and then to intrepid ? by cd ofcourse ? [14:05] ok airtonix thanks [14:05] kQ: does your graphics crash happen immediately, or after some time? [14:05] th0r: I don't want to disable ALL automatic updates, just any from the xorg-edgers repo [14:05] ijn, as they are with screenliets [14:05] ijn: they aren't python scripts [14:05] pronoy: yep it would take two steps [14:05] ubottu: pinning doesn't sound at all like what I want; I don't want to prefer updates from one repo, I want to stop a set of packages from being automatically updated [14:05] Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) [14:05] tzanger: then why not remove that repo from the sources list?

[14:06] erUSUL: ok one more thing..would you say that configuring a wireless router has become easier in the later versions ? [14:06] if you look into the gnome-do plugin pack after downlad and extract [14:06] !who | kQ [14:06] kQ: As you can see, this is a large channel. If you're speaking to someone in particular, please put their nickname in what you say (use !tab), or else messages get lost and it becomes confusing :) [14:06] there is no .dll [14:06] tzanger: that page explains pinning _packages_ [14:07] ubottu: ahh "holding" is what I want [14:07] ijn, plugin path is here : .local/share/gnome-do/plugins [14:07] ii can not able to login to empathy messenger in ubuntu 8.04 [14:07] jtaji: yeah, holding [14:07] ijn, i mean : ~/.local/share/gnome-do/plugins [14:07] kQ: can you go to System > Administration > Hardware Drivers [14:07] pronoy: configuring the connection to a wireless router? or configuring ubuntu to act as a wireless acces point/router ? [14:07] tzanger: oh I see what you're saying [14:07] airtonix | right. [14:08] erUSUL the former [14:08] ijn, another way you might be able to do it is install ubuntu in a viurtual machine and install the whole lot of gnome-do and plugins then move the ddls you want [14:08] tzanger: scroll down a bit and look at the Holding packages section [14:08] dll* [14:08] tzanger: right ;) [14:08] pronoy: much easier compared to dapper... NM has come a long way [14:09] erUSUL i see thanks [14:09] for those who dont know: installing gnome-do app + gnome-do plugin pack from synaptic it install olso evolution mail. [14:09] pronoy: no problem [14:09] airtonix | its complicated for me to do that. [14:10] but i should ask at gnome-do irc probably ...

[14:20] ror: another win for the Ubuntu Community!! [14:20] lambda81, probaly that's a link and not a file, so you will not be able find it with apt-file [14:20] jtaji: its java.

It was just an example [14:20] lambda81, you want libwxgtk2.8-dev or another libwx* version -dev package [14:21] wx-config will probably be a link dependent on the version set to default [14:21] joaopinto: right, 'sudo apt-get install libwxbase2.8-dev libwxgtk2.8-dev' solved the problem [14:21] ciao a tutti , qualcuno sa cosa usare per gestire una mailinglist da ubuntu?

D: Flash makes me hate life. [15:01] can Software RAID5 have different partition sizes? [15:02] Newbiee: the other option is getting the linux 64-bit flash plugin version 10 beta direct from Adobe, it's really only one file and quite easy to install [15:02] Newbiee: I believe the package manager install still uses the 32-bit wrapper [15:02] hi, I suddenly can't boot anymore. Grub fails with an error 18 (cillinder size too large for bios). The pc is new and I have a 2g boot paritition so that can't be it. the hd is fine, I checked with smartmontools. I force fs-checked all the partititions, no errors. The UUIDs in grubs menu.lst are right. I even managed to boot it once by first booting a recovery disk and using that for staging. What could be the cause of such a sudden failure [15:03] Newbee: but it seems to work for most things [15:03] jtaji: yes the flashplugin doesnt work for the swf files ok i will check that [15:03] hello [15:03] logophobia: Someone I know fixed that by changing their drive jumpers. [15:03] how can i set up a ics on ubuntu? eth0 is connecting using pppoe and eth1 is a staticip to my network [15:04] mac9416: it has always worked before. i have had ubuntu on this pc for over a year [15:04] !ics [15:04] If you want to share the internet connection of your ubuntu machine with other machines in the network see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/InternetConnectionSharing - You may also use !firestarter: http://www.fs-security.com/docs/connection-sharing.php [15:04] hi i need help here i was initially able to use my usb thumb drive in kubuntu.

You wouldn't believe the number of fixes there are. I think it's pretty easy. [15:05] Rashamra, any errors? [15:05] logophobia: The kernel that grub is trying to boot may be the issue, (just guessing here, I've not seen anything like this). Do you have more than one kernel? If so, try booting an laternative kernel. [15:05] I have got some strange problem. In Synaptic the fast search doesnt work. Somebody seen this? [15:05] jtaji: where can i find the 64 bit version dont find it on adobe.com [15:06] Newbiee, it is on adobe [15:06] wait [15:06] Newbee: http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/flashplayer10.html [15:06] I'm trying to get the nvidia-glx-180 driver enabled.

[15:07] mac9416, yes you have to uninstall the one you got from nvidia which apparenlty you didnt install correctly === janne is now known as Skiessi [15:08] * Hiemanshu thinks how many people know Google exists [15:08] logophobia: You might boot from CD and try to repair grub, (may be just grub that has gone haywire). BUT.... the bottom line is that something has changed, something has been done to get it into this situation - if you can think back on what configuration changes may have taken place prior to this issue, you may find a clue as to what is amiss - what needs to be changed / fixed. [15:08] mac9416, run this in terminal to remove the previous install sudo /usr/bin/nvidia-installer --uninstall [15:08] * prappl93 laughs at Hiemanshu [15:08] coz_: Wow, you're good. OK, I'll try. [15:09] zzzzzzzzz [15:09] mac9416, i would also,,, just to be safe.. reboot after you uninstall that then install the one from hardeware dirvers [15:09] mac9416, although out of curiosity...how did you try to install the one from nvidia? [15:10] mac9416, you are lucky the ones from Nvidia dint scew up [15:10] mac9416, I usually install nvidia's that's why I am asking [15:11] I get frequent wifi network disconnects with this in the logs: "eth1: No ProbeResp from current AP 00:1d:7e:68:51:6b - assume out of range" [15:11] Hiemanshu do i have to set 192.168.0.1 as my eth1 ip for internal network? [15:11] Anyone knows how to fix that? [15:11] BrixSat, yes [15:11] usr13: yeah, I am trying that. but sofar I haven't got a clue. I checked every grub setting (uuids, partitions..). recent updates. I googled the problem, but i mostly seems to happen on older pcs. ata disk seem to have to problem alot but i have a sata disk. a small boot partition seems to be a solution but i allready have a 1g boot partition. [15:12] usr13: i am going to keep trying [15:12] Hiemanshu if i do that i loose ssh access [15:12] maybe a reinstall [15:12] BrixSat, external computer? [15:12] after a backup [15:12] no inside network [15:12] BrixSat, then how do you loose the SSH access? [15:13] BrixSat, not on the computer physically? [15:13] I have a question: on the Evolution e-mail client, how do I have it display everything? Where there should be pictures and stuff, there are just squares [15:13] Hiemanshu simply not being able to use putty on the network [15:13] BrixSat, i am leaving now i ll be back in 20 min [15:14] Hiemanshu ok ok [15:14] logophobia: mac9416 may have given a good clue. If you have more than one drive that could be the problem. If they are IDE and set to cable select, well, you may need to jumber them as master and slave, (could be that the bios is ordering them differently for some reason or other - I NEVER use cable select). But this is a bit of a longshot.... [15:15] somebady speak spanish?????? [15:15] coz_: I installed the Nvidia one by typing "sudo sh .run" [15:15] can Software RAID5 have different partition sizes? [15:15] prappl93, settings > e-mail-settings -> html -> load pictures [15:15] mac9416, ok that is wrong if you did it inside the terminal [15:15] usr13: i have 2 sata drives, the second was installed more then a month ago. I checked the bios and the order is correct [15:16] anybody knows why would 8.10 not see a cdrom after fresh install and reboot? [15:16] mac9416, there is a file that needs to be edited first and then you have to go into console to install the driver [15:16] coz_: I did it from the console. [15:16] raven_: it can, but the array will be limited by the size of the smallest partition [15:16] Anyone got the same problem, i have just installed ubuntu 9.04 (upgrade) now my nx server is wierd, can't login to the desktop [15:17] bye === Severity1 is now known as john [15:17] Anyone tried 9.04 on a Core i7 yet? I'm considering building a new box in the future. [15:17] coz_: I just ran that command and rebooted. I got "Nvidia module faled to load... Screen(s) found but none with usable configuration.: === john is now known as Guest53635 [15:17] rumpel2, thanks [15:17] mac9416, ok however before that you would have to go into the /etc/default/linux-restricted-modules-common and change DISABLED_MODULES="" to DISABLED_MODULES="nv nvidia_new" [15:17] logophobia: If you have a slackware install CD you can try and boot from it. The slackware CD gives option to boot to particular root partition, if that partition is discovered correctly, it will boot to it and you will then know that it is only grub that is hosed, and at that point you can re-install grub. [15:18] flintwingel and i cannot use the rest of the space? (e.g. by making half-half-partitions? [15:18] It just occurred to me that AVI files might not actually have metadata in them and Nautilus is showing empty values for a reason. [15:18] mac9416, then reboot after running in console the nvidia sh [15:18] hi there,my toshiba doesnot give out audio when i play movie ,am using ubuntu 9.04 ...can anyone help me!!! [15:18] coz_: Don't use the .deb [15:18] ? [15:18] no one? [15:18] logophobia, if you have > 1 drive, and especially if they are of different types (ide/scsi/sata), get ready to waste a week to make it boot, partially because of drive swapping as drives order seen by grub at boot time could be different then when you generate a new grub on MBR. this is quite a trip actually [15:19] mac9416, right I generally just download the nvidia driver from nvidia.com however the repo version is fine in jaunty [15:19] if logophobia comes back, we should tell him to try unplugging the new drive and see if that let's it boot. [15:19] mac9416, although that particular 180.xx driver in ubunt's repor is not one of the best in the 180.xx series [15:19] raven_: if you want to use the extra space you will have to repartion [15:19] msn [15:19] btw, talking about grub, anybody knows at what exact point drive swapping happens and and what exact point grub drive mapping goest into effect [15:20] mac9416, there are only two versions in 180.xx drivers that are good one is 180.17 BETA and the other is 180.29 release [15:20] coz_: Well, I installed the deb one. Should I keep working with that one, or uninstall it and go with the .sh? [15:20] mac9416, the rest are buggie at best [15:20] flintwingel how would it be with hdds: 500 gb, 250 gb, 200gb and 120 gb? [15:20] mac9416, is it working? [15:20] coz_: No I got: "Nvidia module faled to load... Screen(s) found but none with usable configuration." [15:20] mac9416, oooo [15:20] vertix: I don't think grub does "drive mapping", it just takes information from bios. [15:21] :-( [15:21] mac9416, did you reboot? [15:21] coz_: Yezzir [15:21] raven_: if you want to use one raid5 array across all four disks then you will be limited to a 120GB partition on each disk [15:21] usr13, then what is the meaning of /boot/grub/device.map? [15:22] mac9416, go to pastebin and paste the entire /var/log/Xorg.0.log [15:22] <_reno> i know its bad practice, but does anybody know a command or script to run a command as root and automatically feed the root password? [15:22] raven_: you can then use the rest of the space on the three larger disk, either as simple partitions, or another raid array [15:22] !pastebin | mac9416 [15:22] mac9416: 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) [15:22] flintwingel when i leave out the 120 i have 600 gb then? [15:22] _reno: find a better way [15:22] coz_: OK, just a min. [15:22] <_reno> jrib: come again? [15:23] _reno: what exactly do you want to do? Why do you need this? [15:23] usr13, the booting sequence and relationship between which drive is seen at what order is a very complex issue, considering initramfs [15:23] coz_: mac9416 the latest driver from nvidia that works very well is 180.51 [15:23] <_reno> jrib: all i want to do is to make a small script to do the job of sudo, but without the prompt or with the password as a parameter [15:23] vertix: cat /boot/grub/device.map will show you the meaning of it. [15:23] raven_: using just the 200/250/500 disks you will have a raid array of 400GB, using all four disk you will have 360GB of space [15:24] usr13, i know, but at what exact point does that mapping kicks in? what is semantics of it? [15:24] flintwingel what would be the best raid level then? raid 0? [15:24] . [15:24] BrixSat, still here? [15:24] Anyone: I have a problem here. I mount one partition to /home. my OS have been reinstalled with the original user accounts and I kept the mount point. But I failed to read the files in my home folder. I guess my user id has been changed. Any suggestions? [15:24] Hiemanshu ysap [15:25] vertix: But grub only does one thing, it boots a kernel. And that kernel is located at a pre-determined location. If it is there it boots, if it is elswhere, it fails. [15:25] BrixSat, so what exactly is going on? [15:25] raven_: raid0 is not really raid... there is no redundancy [15:25] _reno: yeah, i got that. But WHY? [15:25] i have a e nic card pc [15:25] usr13, if it is used by grub BEFORE it actually starts booting, it is one thing, and if it is use after root partition is mounted it is a different thing. try to predict which drive is going to be in what place... [15:25] <_reno> jrib: curiosity never killed the cat :) im just exploring linux [15:25] hello [15:26] Hiemanshu my pc has 2 nics, eth0 is ppoe and eth1 is internal to my network [15:26] usr13, it is not that easy, at least from what i have seen [15:26] raven_: you could create 2 raid1 arrays - 200+200 from the 500 and 250+250 from the 500 - 450 total === domeng is now known as erbel [15:26] _reno: 'sudo' [15:26] _reno: man sudoers, read aboun NOPASSWD [15:27] Hiemanshu if i switch the ip to the 192.168.0.1 i lose the access via ssh [15:27] i make an account and when i try to edit /etc/fstab , i gotbelal is not in the sudoers file. This incident will be reported, so i i should i add belal to sudoers , how can i do this ? [15:27] BrixSat, before you can can access via SSH you will need to set it up [15:27] coz_: http://paste.ubuntu.com/173675/ === erbel is now known as domeng [15:27] Hiemanshu :p im using ssh now [15:27] mac9416, looking [15:28] BrixSat, no physicall access? [15:28] <_reno> jrib: i know about that trick, but that temporairily permenantly disables the password.. i would prefer that didnt happen [15:28] any help ? [15:28] belal: from an account that does have sudo access, sudo adduser belal admin [15:28] yap i switch the ip to the one sugested on the ics manual you gave me i loose access to it [15:28] coz_: 3sec remaining, 5hr remaining, 4min remaining... :-P [15:28] _reno: What do you mean by "that temporairily permanently disables the password"? [15:28] vertix: no, it is as simple as I said. If the kernel is where /boot/grub/device.map says it is, it will boot it, if it is not, it fails. [15:29] thanks jtaji [15:29] coz_: (EE) NVIDIA(0): Failed to load the NVIDIA kernel module! That seems important. [15:29] usr13, to boot the kernel, you need to know on which drive your / file system partition is and on. When grub just starts booting, it sees your drives as bios shows, but during the process of booting, your 1st bios drive may become the last one and by the time of doing fsck, you may be looking at a wrong partition because drives were already swapped [15:29] <_reno> grawity: by editing the sudoers file as told, you can make sudo not prompt you for the password [15:29] _reno: 1) it's not a trick 2) what you just said makes no sense: how do you temporarily permanently do something? [15:29] _reno: I know, so? Isn't that what you want? [15:29] hello everyone [15:29] BrixSat, oh i get it [15:29] i just upgraded to 9.04 and i would like to go back to 8.10 is there a restore feature for this [15:29] This channel is really moving [15:29] mac9416, also pastebin /etc/X11/xorg.conf [15:30] BrixSat, that is a little odd thing do you have firewall and other things setup? [15:30] booter: no, you would need to reinstall [15:30] could some one tell me how to talk a bit sloweron this channel [15:30] coz_: OK, brb... 10min remaining, 3hr remaining... [15:30] <_reno> grawity: mostly.. but id like to still be able to use sudo normally.. [15:30] usr13, not true and i have seen it first hand. even if you are saying grub> root (hd0,7) and it IS at hd0 location, it does not mean you are going to boot correctly [15:30] Hiemanshu no just a fresh ubuntu install [15:30] _reno: then add only that command as NOPASSWD. [15:30] hello anyone help please [15:30] since it is installed first and i use grub to boot will i loose any of vista?

[15:32] I will -----so the problem here is that I had a part of unused space on my hd and selected a mount point and mounted it [15:32] mms is what?? [15:32] how to install it? [15:32] coz_: mac9416 in my experience with nvidia drivers, installing the one direct from nvidia without removing the preinstalled ubuntu nvidia bits, tends to muck things up.. to uninstall the nvidia.com driver "sudo sh ./NVIDia.yada.yada --uninstall" then reboot.. or remove the ubuntu synaptic nvidia bits then reinstall the driver from nvidia.com to fix the kernel mod. [15:32] I see that the new partitions' used space is also showing there but an earlier partition also mounted on /media i,e /media/disk [15:33] wangkeke: that probably refers to the main repo, which is "officially" supported, versus the universe repo, which is "community" supported [15:33] rumpel2 thank you. i just do a regular install on my ubuntu partition eh [15:33] BrixSat, you will need to phyically set it up on the server and client before you can connect [15:33] so the result is that my ubuntu partition is 10gigs and the two other media partitions 20 and 25(this being the new one) and I have used 7.6 gigs on the new one [15:33] but this 7.6 is also shown as used space in my 10 gigs ubuntu partiotion and so I dont have much space on the ubuntu partition but this is wrong and should not be what did I do wrong anyone [15:34] scunizi: I already ran the Nvidia driver's --uninstall. [15:34] jtaji:could u tell me what the problem is [15:34] Hiemanshu ok [15:35] usr13, do you fully understand how booting and grub generation works? cause then you could tell me at what exact point grub's mapping goes into effect and at what exact point in booting sequence drive swapping takes place [15:35] coz_: http://paste.ubuntu.com/173681/ [15:36] mac9416, ok open a terminal and type nvidia-xconfig [15:36] I have advanced partitioning on my laptop. One one partition is ubuntu studio on another partition is ubuntu jaunty. How would I go about using the same separate third partition as /home for both systems and same /home/user/ directory for the same user on both systems? [15:36] coz_: OK, just a sec... [15:37] mac9416, then restart X [15:37] mac9416, but do it properly with ctrl+alt+F1 then log in then sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart [15:37] 1474 dudez, wow [15:37] I've done an upgrade from 8.10 to 9.04, everything works cleanly. The only issue that i currently have is that WoW (World Of Warcraft) will not work properly whereas it did work perfectly before. [15:37] I see that the new partitions' used space is also showing there but an earlier partition also mounted on /media i,e /media/disk [15:37] jasonmchristos, you can mount that partition in either one [15:37] добрый день. не поскажите какой файлик удалить чтобы пересобралось меню в гном?

[15:38] carpii, wine [15:38] ok well i think upgrading disables any third party repo's [15:38] so try enabling winehq again and update [15:38] carpii, i know, so i've reenabled those repo's and updated. [15:38] oh, ok [15:38] Hiemanshu i cant set up the ip 192.168.0.1 [15:39] she_dyed: i know that i can mount it in either one but how do i tell both systems to use it as /home and will the user files of one user 'jason' be able to be used as the same home directory for the user 'jason' on the other system [15:39] usr13, cause what i am seeing is this: when you generate grub from livecd, your drive order is not the same as bios drive order. So, if you do grub> find /boot/grub/stage1, it will find it, but it will be not in the same order as grub will see it when you start booting. so when you do grub> setup (hd0), at boot time it will be (hd1), and when your / file system starts getting loaded, it wont be found, and all other partitions will be wron [15:39] g because you are in different drive order than what grub thinks [15:39] BrixSat, thats the only wy [15:39] way [15:39] All: Have 2 Unix boxes that only use com1 TTY for terminal sessions. Where is howto on using com1 in Terminal session so I can access these boxes with my null modem cable from existing Ubuntu desktop? [15:39] cexpert11: Use minicom.

Right now Inet on linux/unix is down, gateway out so need something not needing install. [15:42] Hmm [15:42] cexpert11: neither installed by default [15:42] Minicom isn't default [15:43] coz_: well, the package name is nvidia-glx-180 but the version is .44. I'll run the command....

On the CD were 5 sets of drivers. Mine was 3 levels deep and had to dig for them. Gateway is Win box and autorun would not install. Had to do manual install. [15:46] how can i change F9 in ubuntu-screen to "CTRL-F9"? [15:47] cexpert11: Hmm, try DLing it somewhere else. [15:47] cexpert11: You on jaunty? [15:47] and no... google on "ubuntu screen mc F9" doesnt help [15:47] mac9416, is that done ?

See, the Jaunty machine is offline. I have to download the files and install them by hand. Well, I generate my own repo and use that.

[15:49] When I click my mouse it is not always registering the click at the location of my cursor, sometimes it registers at some previously clicked location, this is highly unusable, please advise using 8.10. [15:49] ok [15:49] coz_: Will do. [15:49] jtaji, nathan7: my Install CD is 8.04, but ran upgrade, so should be on 8.10. Not going to 9.04 till I see the traffic die down and know most bugs are gone.

[15:54] how r u gusy [15:54] she_dyed: last thing I installed was a recent update to the chromium development preview === ian_mac_ is now known as ian_mac [15:54] and did you just play it full screen mythril [15:54] mac9416, is there an ethernet slot in the back of the laptop? I wonder if you can piggyback that connection?

The only issue that i currently have is that WoW (World Of Warcraft) will not work properly whereas it did work perfectly before. [15:56] yes mythril [15:56] cexpert11: Ask on #freenode for supressing the ip [15:56] she_dyed: I have rebooted since I last ran chromium [15:56] cexpert1: #pidgin, here on Freenode [15:56] cexpert11: look on the freenode site [15:56] grawity: GRAWFACE!

I am considering to remove the package pidgin-data. This would need to remove libpurple0 first. Can I remove safely libpurple0 if I am no programmer to write a program without endangering my access to IM networks? [15:57] haro ionine [15:57] *libpurple [15:57] bullgard4: Pidgin appears to be the only program that uses it [15:57] does it do mouse gestures like the other browsers mythril [15:57] bullgard4: libpurple is used by the programs themselves too - so if you use Pidgin, for example, then better keep it. [15:57] bullgard4, it's a library used by programmers. If you use IM networks, you'll need it. [15:57] sup yo?? [15:57] she_dyed: doubt it [15:57] s3r3n1t7: Not really. [15:57] Also, lame nick. [15:58] bullgard4: But if you don't use Pidgin or Finch, then you can remove it.

Except pidgin/finch. [15:59] has anybody ever had a system working perfectly fine with desktop effects and all, but the xorg.conf be totally blank? [16:00] I'm running 9.04 on a lenovo laptop with intel integrated graphics [16:00] nathan7, If he doesn't need it, sure he can remove it. But if he wants access to IM networks, the dependencies are more then likely to depend on it. [16:00] drone: Yes [16:00] its just strange, I've never seen a working system with a blank xorg.conf [16:00] drone: I don't know if there's an open source 3D driver that's good enough to do that? [16:00] I was wanting to adjust something in there but now I'm not sure how [16:00] drone: perhaps you should look at the release notes once :) [16:00] drone: Now days, the xorg.conf file is used only if it exists. [16:01] s3r3n1t7: It'll ask before removing [16:01] drone: (where I'm assuming an empty xorg.conf would try to load any compatible FOSS drivers) [16:01] I did not know that [16:01] +automatically [16:01] I assumed it was always used [16:01] drone: xorg can [now] take it or leave it. [16:01] nathan7, wasn't that what the whole discussion was about ... [16:01] interesting [16:01] drone: X is a bit better these days :) [16:01] coz_: You sure I'm gonna need to recompile the kernel? [16:01] so what should I do about setting the ctrl+alt+backspace to work again? [16:02] I believe its something like "nozap" [16:02] with the video modes now being integrated with the kernel,X will become history soon :P [16:02] s3r3n1t7: ... === hell_ is now known as hellues [16:02] mac9416, no you wont have to recompile the kernel but you do need the linux source [16:02] drone: or dontzap [16:02] !dontzap | drone [16:02] drone: 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. [16:02] what do you guys think is better and fast.. QT or GTK? [16:02] coz_: OK, you had me worried :-) [16:02] !ot | RxDx [16:02] RxDx: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics. Thanks! [16:02] drone: I suppose you'd have to create the xorg.conf file. (Not sure tho). [16:02] ah [16:02] ok [16:03] how do i prevent bluetooth from turning on when i boot jaunty? update-rc.d -f remove bluetooth only prevents bluetooth tools from startin [16:03] jrib, ok.. thanks [16:03] v [16:03] *g [16:03] thank you for the helpful info :) [16:03] raylu: see man hcitools for the commands [16:03] coz_: Verizon puts a 5g/month cap on me and big downloads make me cringe. Their stupid bandwidth meter is buggy too. But I can take 50 megs [16:03] drone: You can have X create it for you. I think it is dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg [16:03] raylu: one sec [16:03] cool [16:04] mac9416, ok let me know when all is downloaded [16:04] raylu: man hcitool [16:04] mplayer want not load next chapter on dvd... why??

[16:05] so, if xorg.conf isn't being used, then where is the config located? or is there not one?

Then, the "Make USB Startup Disk" tool shows me a "Format" button, which I click. Finally, I click on "Make Startup Disk". The processes finishes, and the USB disk is STILL not bootable. Any clues? [16:05] shadeslayer: i'm pretty sure that's not going to do it. that's for manipulating the bluetooth device [16:05] are there any ventrilo rooms on here, can't get mine to work [16:05] shadeslayer: even if i turned it off with hcitool, it wouldn't happen at boot [16:05] Fumoh`: maybe you set nautilus to not to draw the desktop [16:05] drone: there isn't one - xorg uses defaults and probing. you can use one if you want to override [16:06] drone: See for yourself: ls /etc/X11/xorg.conf [16:06] shadeslayer, Where can I check for that? [16:06] raylu: maybe adding the command to rclocal [16:06] Fumoh`: alt+F2 > gconf-editor > apps/nautilus/pref [16:06] shadeslayer: not exactly a clean solution. i'll poke around in the bios later [16:06] do I need to install some package so that I can: sudo mount /dev/sdb1 sdb1; mount: unknown filesystem type 'ext4dev' [16:07] drone: If it IS there, remove it and see what happens: mkdir /etc/X11/backup ; mv /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/backukp/ [16:07] raylu: its messy but imho it should work [16:07] drone: or mv /etc/X11/* /etc/X11/backup [16:07] nium-_: not all usb sticks are bootable - its a hardware thing that I don't understand [16:08] CarlFK: um, dont you think instead of ext4dev it should be ext4 [16:08] CarlFK: not all hardware is capable of booting usb tsicks [16:08] *sticks [16:08] drone: And if you want to put it back as it was: cp /etc/X11/backup/* /etc/X11/ [16:08] is it an old laptop CarlFK [16:08] shadeslayer: heck if I know - thats the error mount is displaying [16:08] CarlFK, this is a standard Kingston usb stick. I've booted from it other OS'es before. Should work. The host is either VMWare or a recent Dell PC. Should boot it. [16:08] what would you recommend to do when I have found bug but not shure if the ubuntu-doc bug it is like not full info and I also know a solution 4 programm and that one who edited last also should be invited .. but to witch bug as I don't know how better to make them all connect together? [16:09] nium-_: k - never mind me then :) [16:09] drone: Of course, you have to use sudo for all that.... but you get the point, right? [16:09] Kangarooo: /j #ubuntu-bugs - ask them [16:09] ignore me CarlFK wrong user [16:09] Kangarooo: you mean you wish to modify help docs? [16:09] CarlFK, shadeslayer: when ext4 was in development (not stable), it was called ext4dev. since then, it has been renamed to ext4 [16:10] CarlFK: if it is choosing the wront fs type, first check /etc/fstab. then, use -t ext4 [16:10] raylu: ah - yeah, this drive came from a box running jaunty beta [16:10] raylu: thats what im thinking [16:10] usr13: yes, I get the point. It's just weird to me because I've been using linux for a few years now and this is the first time I've seen a blank xorg.conf [16:10] CarlFK: but my guess is that /etc/fstab is telling it to try to mount it as ext4dev [16:10] shadeslayer, I went in, Desktop was enabled, however I disabled it and re-enabled it and now everything's working fine. Thanks for your help! [16:10] raylu: or just mkfs it again - theres nothing on it yet [16:10] CarlFK: that likely won't fix anything [16:10] Fumoh`: no problems [16:10] usr13: I kind of did a double take, hehe [16:10] raylu: no entry in fstab - just my mount command [16:11] CarlFK: are you still on jaunty beta? [16:11] Hi there! I installed ubuntu lately and somehow my cd drive does not work. Any ideas?

[16:14] CarlFK: oh. it might... i'd certainly remake it with the new kernel if that was the case [16:14] server bnc.endpoint.nu:6667 darkdevil:oslotime78 [16:14] chuck_: So, what exactly does that mean? [16:14] raylu: or exactly: sudo mkfs -t ext4 -T largefile4 -T ext4dev /dev/sdc1 [16:14] usr13: I moved it, do you want me to log out and log back in on that thing to see if it blows up ? haha [16:15] drone: But that's all it is, if it is blank or does not exist, xorg configures itself via the hardware detection process. That way, if you change hardware, no problem it just cofigures accordingly. [16:16] drone: Sure try it... [16:16] brb: restarting Pidgin [16:16] shadeslayer: I don't think it shows up. My internet is really slow here - I'm currently trying to output it to pastebin.

I moved the file and when I logged back in, it didn't create a new one or anything. it's just not there [16:17] felix_: one moment [16:17] usr13: thats awesome ! [16:17] drone: Yea it's very nice. [16:18] drone: also fun is xrandr [16:18] usr13: so I'm assuming that this is a sign (well that and the fact that everything worked out of the box no prob) that lenovo systems work extremely well with linux? [16:18] coz_: linux-source/nvidia driver are both downloaded [16:18] raylu: um, what happened to the man page for ext4? drive will hold 6g -20g files [16:18] thinkpads generally work well with linux ,yes [16:18] CarlFK: huh? [16:18] CarlFK: i wasn't aware of a manpage for ext4 [16:19] felix_: can you see the CD drive in nautilus ? [16:19] mac9416, ok now gksudo gedit /etc/default/linux-restricted-modules-common [16:19] I actually bought the laptop in question for my g/f and even coming from an all mac background, she loves it [16:19] raylu: man mkfs had ext4 stuff in it [16:19] mac9416, change DISABLED_MODULES="" to DISABLED_MODULES="nv nvidia_new" [16:19] Hi, the touchpad is not working anymore on my ubuntu 9.04 this is after I clicked the fun+F6 (which toggles the touchpad) it turned it off but it wont turn it on again :( [16:19] coz_: working... [16:19] raylu: hmm, maybe not... where did I see it... [16:19] CarlFK: man mkfs.ext4 [16:19] drone: Well, yep it appears so. I guess it's just a hardware compatability thing, if everything is well supported, you're good to go. [16:19] shadeslayer: No. [16:19] AWESOME [16:20] hello [16:20] raylu: ah, thanks. [16:20] * ddafsddds yawns ?DCC SEND "dddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddde¡®¡¤e¡®?e¡®?e¡¯€e¡®o" 0 0 0 [16:20] mac9416, then ctrl+alt+F1 then log in then sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop then cd to the location of the downloaded driver and sudo sh NV hit tab to complete name then answer yes to all then when finished sudo init 6 to reboot [16:20] so to fix the ctrl+alt+backspace (I already taught my g/f this so I dont want to change it) I just get the dontzap package? [16:20] drone: I guess for a mac user, linux is just like mac on steriods [16:21] usr13: indeed :) [16:21] drone: yes [16:21] any ideas how i can find out what is wrong with my laptop hardware? the screen doesnt seem rite it flickers somtimes when i close and open programs [16:21] drone: yep! [16:21] mac9416, if you are not familiar with those commands I am going to suggest writing them down on paper :) [16:21] drone: and then do sudo dontzap --disable [16:21] >join ubuntu6fr [16:21] hello. I know that $1, $2, $3... in a shell script are passed as arguments. But how do I tell the script to pass all the arguments to my program?

[16:22] mac9416, lol yes but how functional [16:22] shadeslayer: Ofc! :) [16:22] usr13: I know, but sometimes its hard to sell mac zealots on linux [16:22] drone: It is very good, I love the mac os, it is simple, straight forward and stable as a rock. But... it's not quite as powerful / versitle as linux [16:22] can a symlink link to a directory? === nick is now known as Guest12181 [16:22] I love the mac os too, I just love linux* more [16:23] felix_: so can you see the drive in Computer?? [16:23] shadeslayer: No. I can't. [16:23] drone: I'll tell you that, but will not tell a mac user [16:23] Etanol, yes [16:23] any ideas how i can find out what is wrong with my laptop hardware? the screen doesnt seem rite it flickers somtimes when i close and open programs [16:23] ? [16:23] coz_: OK, working... [16:23] felix_: ok can you put in a CD and paste the output of dmesg | tail?

[16:24] coz_: why aren't we installing nvidia drivers from the repositories? [16:24] =-O [16:24] raylu: /etc/mke2fs.conf has both ext4 and ext4dev - should the mention of ext4dev be reported as a bug? [16:24] chuck_: Yeah, I fear that I'm trapped in 8.10 untill a hardware upgrade. === DaveIngram[afk] is now known as DaveIngram [16:24] raylu, it didnt work for him probably because he tried installing the downloded nividia drivers first [16:24] usr13: yes indeed. Anything but win server 2003, ugh :( [16:24] CarlFK: why is that a bug? you can make ext4dev filesystems [16:24] coz_: the "downloaded" drivers? [16:24] raylu, from nvidia's site [16:25] coz_: and isn't that what you were walking him through? [16:25] how can i finf out if i have a hardware problem? i think i do as my screen flash`s somtimes....please help === dtcrshr is now known as suinestudio [16:25] raylu, at this point yes [16:25] 8-) [16:25] raylu, the glx wouldnt work although Ididnt ask which card o0 [16:25] shadeslayer: Coming up, takes some time since my internetconnection is real, real slow! [16:25] coz_: so, again, why aren't we installing nvidia drivers from the repositories? [16:25] felix_: no problems [16:25] raylu, we couldnt get them working [16:26] usr13: speaking of servers, how do you think ubuntu server would do as an email server ? and postfix, sendmail, * ? [16:26] drone: MS has good a OS It is not better than Linux, but it's good. It's not better than Linux, it's just different. That's about as far as I'll go. [16:26] raylu: just checking with someone who seem to knonw whats going on :) [16:26] raylu, ontop of which the 180.44 driver is not one of the betterones [16:26] usr13: I'm just speaking from experience, supporting servers and clients in an all windows shop makes me miserable [16:26] drone: Will do fine. (A whole lot better than MS) [16:26] raylu, the only drivers from the 180.xx series that are nearly bug free are the 180.17 BETA and the 180.29 release [16:26] coz_: 180 is in the repos [16:27] raylu, in the repo is the 180.44 [16:27] Adola, I installed the radeonhd driver from git. have HDMI sound, tear free video, but no hardware 3d acceleration. [16:27] grr, for some reason I've closed the chat window [16:27] usr13: I've got a client that needs to send out 500-700 emails a day and they need something stable that will get the job done and work with winxp/thunderbird clients [16:27] chuck_: I've been on #ATi, and I think i'm going for xorg....I'm goign to switch to opensource. [16:28] shadeslayer: http://pastebin.com/d631a19a4 ! [16:28] anyway, is there a way in a shell script to cd to the folder where the shell script is, no matter where it's executed from? [16:28] is thier mixcraft 4 for linux [16:28] drone: When you get into servers, Linux is the way to go for sure. It's kind of like the difference in a brick house and wood siding house. [16:28] tanveer: there is mixx [16:28] mixx? [16:28] where do i find it [16:28] hello guys check this video http://lunduke.com/?p=429 [16:29] its on linux [16:29] usr13: when I came into this place, I ditched their svr 03 file server for a centos 5.2 samba system and I've gotten almost no calls about it since. Now they are in need of an email server and I've got to figure something out for them. [16:29] felix_: looks like the CD is detected but its not mounting [16:29] shadeslayer: Okay, I hope this is easy to fix? :) [16:29] isn't it mixxx? [16:29] DexterLB, $0 gives the full path to the shell script [16:30] drone: I'm not really an expert on mail servers, there are probably others on here that can give you specific advise about mail servers, or other channels that deal with the various aspects of certain server packages. [16:30] so cd "$0" [16:30] hello. I'm just an "old time" linux user, and I've just revived this difficult laptop with xubuntu-9.04 -- very impressive work, everyone! [16:30] felix_: ok can you install lsscsi ?? just to confirm that the CD ROM is detected? [16:30] drone: do they just need email or do they want shared contacts & diary as well? [16:30] i need acoustic mixcraft [16:31] hello guys check this video http://lunduke.com/?p=429 [16:31] i am getting messages that my blackberry sees a media card that contains errors and i need to use a disk checking utility to fix it. how can i fix this? [16:31] coz_: OK, ran the driver installer. Got a slew of errors that eppeared to be conflicts with nvidia-glx-180. They were very long, but I copied down one of them: [16:31] coz_: ERROR: Unable to open '/usr/lib/xorg/modules/extensions/libglx.so' for reading. No such file or directory. [16:31] shadeslayer: Is this a program? [16:31] mac9416, oy [16:31] felix_: its a package to detecta all scsi devices [16:31] felix_: like lspci and lsusb [16:31] mac9416, ok I am going to hand you over to raylu then I apprently am missing something here [16:31] Hi, how can I start emerald theme manger automatically at startup? [16:32] coz_: OK, thanks for the help :-) [16:32] shadeslayer: Installed! [16:32] flintwingel: they mainly need to get away from their web based service and be able to send out an extremely high amount of emails per day. as far as shared contacts goes, I don't think they need that. It's all about the quantity of mail they send. [16:32] felix_: then type lsscsi in terminal [16:32] how can i finfdout if i have a hardware problem? i think i do as my screen flash`s somtimes....please help [16:32] flintwingel: they grew way too fast ;) [16:32] dam0: what video card? [16:32] hi [16:32] its a geforce [16:32] dam0: maybe driver problem? [16:33] shadeslayer: It has only got my harddrive and my external harddrive! [16:33] usser: how do I make a symlink? === Mack is now known as mackmgg [16:33] drone: I suggest you look at a combination of cyrus+postfix, you can also add spamassassin + clamav for scanning [16:33] i have reinstalled ubuntu and it did not solve the problem [16:33] arooni: It is probably vfat filesystem which is not really native to Linux. You can reformat it with mkfs.vfat or you can go to a MS machine and re-format it. Either way should work ok if the hardware is ok. [16:33] DexterLB, something like var=`dirname $0` cd $var [16:33] damn [16:33] shadeslayer: [2:0:0:0] disk ATA Hitachi HTS72202 DC4O /dev/sda; [10:0:0:0] disk WD 10EACS External 1.65 /dev/sdb [16:33] i cant get my pw === mackmgg is now known as Mack [16:33] i just hope kill is off [16:33] my ubuntu pc is so slow:( not like evry time i have installed it [16:33] felix_: hmm.. then i think the proper modules have to be loaded.... i have no idea how to do that [16:34] can anyone tell me how to auto start emerald theme manager when I log in [16:34] arooni: It is more than likely fat32 [16:34] hello all [16:34] anyone know why unrealircd wont make? [16:34] Etanol, ln -s directory/ linkname [16:34] shadeslayer: Okay, thank you anyway :) [16:34] shadeslayer: canu help pls? i think my hardware is not running correct [16:34] Patrick904: Menu->Preferences->Start Applications [16:34] felix_: hus googling one sec [16:34] coz_: lol, I thought those errors were it for me, but I didn't pay attention when it booted up. Guess what... [16:34] flintwingel: gotcha. Thanks for the tip. I'm still kinda new to the email server thing and I've not had to do anything quite like this before. Hopefully it'll go well. :) [16:34] How do I increase the width of window borders so it is easier to resize windows? [16:34] arooni: But if you have anything on it, you know that that data will be lost if you re-format it, right? [16:34] my pc is so slow:S after i installed ubuntu whyyyyyyyyyyyy ? [16:34] felix_: http://linux.about.com/od/lkm_howto/a/hwtlkm16t04.htm [16:34] mac9416, what? [16:35] coz_: No errors on boot. All appears in order :-D [16:35] dam0: driver problem> [16:35] after i installed medibuntu [16:35] mac9416, ah ha:) [16:35] * mac9416 should pay more attention. [16:35] my pc is so slow after in installed medibuntu [16:35] flintwingel: that will just open the emerald theme manager window. what's happening for me is that gnome is starting up on login, even though I did emerald --replace [16:35] mac9416, so it is working now? [16:35] drone: there are quite a few howtos around and that combination - its a really solid setup - I have clients who've been using it for years [16:35] shadeslayer: no i dont think so [16:35] JonDgls: Not so sure that the width of window borders make it easier to resize windows. [16:35] usr13, i insert it but ubuntu doesnt see the card........ what can i do? [16:35] coz_: Yezzir, as far as I know. Desktop effects working. That appears to have got it. Thanks! [16:36] hi all [16:36] arooni: fdisk -l [16:36] arooni: sudo fdisk -l [16:36] dam0: whats the card no. ?? [16:36] flintwingel: one more question if you don't mind: do I go with something other than smtp ? I've heard of imapi? being better for sending out massive amounts of emails... what do you think? [16:36] why my pc is slow after i installed medubuntu [16:36] mac9416, very cool :) and you dont have to update that driver until the next series most likely... unless nvidia fixes the major buts in that series :) [16:36] some programs have stopped working, they just go "Starting " [16:36] mediaubuntu [16:36] usr13, not seen; maybe i need to resrat [16:36] howdy folks [16:36] mac9416, major bugs but butts works too :) === TehBrayn is now known as TheBrayn [16:37] arooni: May be that the card is bad.

I can't find it in the tmenus and nobody dis answering me in the virtualbox chat. [16:37] mac9416, cool now you can just enjoy :) [16:37] JonDgls: I don't know how. You will have to ask someone else [16:37] coz_: Thanks so much! Cya [16:37] apparently fglrx is still recomended under 9.04 for older ati cards? [16:37] mac9416, no problem [16:37] shadeslayer: how can i find out the card number? [16:37] flintwingel: whoops I didn't mean imapi [16:37] wrong window [16:37] hehe [16:38] drone: smtp is the only way to send email on the internet - mapi & imap are ways for an email client to interact with a mail store (mapi is MS specific) [16:38] flintwingel: oh I see [16:38] flintwingel: well it looks like I've got work to do today then :) thanks for your advice!

So it may be that you need to do both. But again, I don't know for sure. [16:50] is there some way to swap python out without removing all dependancies?

I just remember i added chainlloader +1 from grubs prompt when booting, [17:12] and now i did the update on THIS installation, and there is about 99% chance it wont boot again === Pompos_ is now known as Pompos [17:12] kane77: did you try medibuntu codecs [17:12] Is there a way for me to disable a password being needed when I resume from hibernate?

[17:12] yeah i installed ssh and openssh or somethin [17:13] thiebaude1, I'm not sure, since I tried a lot of things :) [17:13] FlightlessDuck, does your wifi suck? [17:13] FlightlessDuck: Is openssh-server installed on the system you are trying to ssh to? [17:13] vertix well grub is a dance between the hardware and kernels... take modifications slowly... who cares what your drives are called anyway really... just leave it all be [17:14] yes it is [17:14] I'm assuming so, usr13, since he can SSH at all [17:14] and yes my wifi sucks [17:14] I've a directory set with 770. A samba user is part of the group but he cannot enter the directory and I just don't get it [17:14] FlightlessDuck: Is the system your sshing to connected to the network? Do you have it's correct IP address? Is the client also connected to the same LAN? [17:15] FlightlessDuck: is this time out when you try to connect or does it timeout during a connection [17:15] jbmigel, fine with me, it does not matter what is called what. except when it started to boot, it started toing fsck on wrong partitions because its idea of drive order is not what it was when it was booting [17:15] FlightlessDuck: If you can answer yes to all of the above, I see no reason why it wont work. [17:15] it times you when im trying to connect [17:16] could it be my isp? [17:16] FlightlessDuck: can you ping the machine you're trying to login to? [17:16] FlightlessDuck have you tried with a wired connection rather than wifi? [17:16] no, i only have a laptop [17:16] FlightlessDuck: Did you answer the above 3 questions? [17:16] i'm borrowing neighbors wifi... [17:16] FlightlessDuck you cant plug your laptop into your router? [17:16] FlightlessDuck ah [17:17] jbmigel, another thing: for some reason, it does not see my cdrom. what could be the reason for it? I was able to come up, but after doing update, it does not see the cdrom [17:17] FlightlessDuck: And what are you trying to ssh to? [17:17] I installed another network manager, but then removed it. the connections in the NetworkManager applet still say device not managed. how do I choose who manages my network connections? [17:17] FlightlessDuck maybe your neighbour is rebooting their router to get rid of you\ [17:17] yeah, no router, just "borrowing" from someone else [17:17] Is there a way for me to disable a password being needed when I resume from hibernate?

[17:19] jbmigel, (before i generate another grub and screw my mbr?) :) [17:19] FlightlessDuck: Basically, if the other PC is connected to the same local areay network and you have the correct IP for that PC, it will work. [17:19] area* (not areay [17:20] in irssi is there a way to filter the results from '/LIST' ? [17:20] wnstn yes, just use wildcards [17:20] jbmigel, or can i add something to /lib/modules or something to make sure ubuntu is seeing my cdrom drive? [17:20] wnstn: You could wear dark glasses [17:20] does ipv6 via radvd from another linux box in the network work for anyone with network-manager? [17:20] vertix sorry im not sure [17:20] here nm removes all ipv6 addresses [17:21] well, it could be my initrd that does not have that info about cdrom, i guess [17:21] RHorse: I can't seem to get the syntax right, can you help? Say I am looking for all channels on freenode with the word "linux" in the description. How would I search that? [17:21] Did i get a bad install (9.04) or can you no longer drag the top panel to the bottom. [17:22] vertix: initrd does not deal with CDROMs [17:22] vertix if you look in /etc/fstab you can see where your current kernel is looking for it [17:22] wnstn just type /list *linux [17:23] how do i change my nickname in irssi? [17:23] thiebaude1: /nick [17:23] i have a debian running and i have qemu install with ubuntu livecd, can't i install it on the other partition with qemu? so that i can avoid burning a cd ? [17:23] thiebaud1, /nick nickname [17:23] thanks nikosapi [17:24] can i get a doc on that? [17:24] thiebaude1 just /nick "newnick" [17:24] kewl [17:24] mib_8cbesj, just install in a vm, then dd the partition from vm to the physical partition [17:24] thanks [17:24] vertix: initrd is an initial ramdisk. It is a very small Linux filesystem that is loaded into RAM and mounted as the kernel boots, and before the main root filesystem is mounted. But it is created specific to the kernel you are about to boot. [17:25] vertix: You can re-create it if you need to, but if there is some problem with CDROM, it will have no effect. [17:25] usser: i am in search with a doc that says the qemu options and configs..:) [17:25] backtrack.fr [17:25] s/with/for/ [17:26] mib_8cbesj: "man qemu" doesn't have them? [17:26] jbmigel, i have this in /etc/fstab /dev/scd0 /media/cdrom0 udf,iso9660 user,noauto,exec,utf8 0 0. but there is no /dev/scd0 [17:26] vertix: If you install a new kernel, (and it is a generic kernel), ubuntu will automatically re-generate a new initrd image [17:26] for you [17:26] mmm, getting 'sh: winbindd: not found' error when starting samba, how can I rectify this? [17:27] usr13, well, i thought initrd also has drivers for my hardware and possibly locations of different file systems/partitions [17:28] vertix it really sounds like your cd drive is not installed... you're sure its not unplugged or something? can you put a boot disk in and boot from it? [17:28] usr13, well, the kernel was installed by ubuntu during update process, but when i rebooted, it did not come up, i guess because my grub's .map file was not mapping drives correctly (because they switch order as compared to bios order) [17:28] I added a new drive to my box, did mkfs, good. I want it mounted on /home/carl/Videos - I know how to do it with fstab/mount, wondering what the ubuntu way is? [17:28] Is there a way for me to disable a password being needed when I resume from hibernate? I'd like to go straight to my desktop and not have to put in a password every time. [17:29] jbmigel, cd drive is installed. otherwise, how could it boot from livecd? [17:29] mike: yes, in the screen save options [17:29] vertix: Initrd is needed to load kernel modules before mounting the root partition. These are modules that are rquired to support the filesystem used by the root partition, Or, the controller that the hard drive is attached to. [17:29] jbmigel, unplugged? :) who did that?!? :) [17:29] Mike94287: the "lock screen when screen saver is active" thingie. [17:30] Geier: I already have that disabled. [17:30] oh, that's weird [17:30] usr13, so, you are saying that there is no mapping to devices of any kind in initrd? [17:31] Geier: so that's what that thinkingy does - always wondered bout that [17:31] vertix does lspci list cdroms in it for you? [17:31] cause that is what i was beginning to suspect. i guess when update generated a new initrd, it was using the .map file that is not correct then [17:31] CarlFK: or not does, for that matter ;) [17:31] vertix: No, it just loads modules to support a particular filesystem or something like that. [17:32] Mike94287 you shouldn't be using hibernate all that much, so what's the big deal in typing a password a couple of times a day? [17:32] RHorse: why should u use hibernate that much (not that i do it)? [17:32] vertix: initrd is basically a boot loader initialized RAM disk [17:32] or not use it that much... [17:33] yeah :-/ [17:33] weird lspci does not have a cdrom entry. how could this be? [17:33] vertix: It is a read-only block devise [17:33] vertix: i doubt your CD goes straight to your pci buss :) [17:34] vertix and its not in dmesg either? [17:34] usr13, that is what i was thinking about initrd, ALL it does is to be able to get you to real root file system, from then on, it is not needed any more [17:34] Hi... [17:34] hi [17:35] hi [17:35] hi [17:36] well, cdrom is ide drive [17:36] vertix: Right. On kernel startup the kernel uncompresses and copies the contents of the device /dev/initrd into device /dev/ram0 and then frees the memory used by /dev/initrd. The kernel then read-write mounts device /dev/ram0 as the initial root filesystem. [17:36] if i don't have a cdrom drive, and i have an old near-wreck system running on a small partition.. and if i want to install new ubuntu on the other partition.. then VMs like qemu is the only go right? [17:36] s/system/operating system/ [17:36] usr13, that is what i was thinking actually [17:37] Hello, Im trying to install ubuntu, I have shrinked a win partition but it doesnt let me create new ones in the free space [17:37] mib_8cbesj, netinstall will work if you have another computer [17:37] mib_8cbesj: you could install ubuntu from usb-flashdrive [17:37] http://img526.imageshack.us/img526/1012/pantallazo5.png [17:37] sorry for the spanish [17:37] vertix: If the indicated normal root filesystem is lso th initial file-system (/dev/ram0) then the kernel skips to the last step for the usual boot sequence. [17:37] or netinstall, ov course [17:37] mib_8cbesj maybe a usb stick? [17:37] mib_8cbesj: if you can install kexec on the near-wreck, you can boot the ubuntu installer [17:38] xzx [17:38] vertix: If a "huge" kernel is installed, initrd is not needed. [17:39] usr13, do you have an idea what could be wrong with the cdrom situation? where there is no device for it? [17:39] is there a subroom around where i can go and cry about my broadcom wireless card not working? [17:39] vertix: look at /proc/ and see [17:40] does anyone know of a good alternative to mythtv (that supports atsc)? i messed up my database and have no idea how to fix it [17:40] hi, my volume keys no longer seem to affect the mixer.. what might i have changed? i have the master selected in prefs->sound though I dont think it was selected before [17:40] jbmigel: #ubuntu-offtopic [17:40] vertix: Are you sure the CDROM is in good working order? (And is connected properly.) [17:40] jbmigel: /join #justslashmywrists [17:40] jbmigel: have you tried ndiswrapper?? [17:41] brk3 sorry i should have specified that ndiswrapper can suck it [17:41] any clue ? [17:41] jbmigel: whats wrong with ndis [17:41] jbmigel: Geier : how would this usb stick thing work? i have to install it first on a usb stick and then on the system from the stick? [17:41] Ok, I'm stuck how do I copy to 6 dvd repositorys to an external hard-disk, add them to sources.list and still be able to download updates? [17:41] usr13, yep, it WAS in good working order before i booted (i hope :), but what should i be looking for in /proc re: cdrom? [17:42] mib_8cbesj: you can copy an Ubuntu ISO-Image on a usb-drive and boot from that drive, just like from cd [17:42] brk3 it just feels wrong to be using a windows driver dont you think.... its like somehow i only have a unix theme of a os all of a sudden with ndis [17:42] i'm getting an error regarding duplicates for archive.ubuntu.org, here is my sources list. can someone tell me what the duplicates are? i'm having trouble recognizing them http://paste.ubuntu.com/173751/ [17:42] i have an avi file and i need to burn it to a dvd so it will play automaticly in a dvd player how do i do that ????????????????????????????

[17:51] oh, interesting, after i took out the disk from cdrom drive, ubuntu said: successfully applies changes and it has something to do with cdrom. let me see if it is there now [17:51] because the one is an ISO the other an IMG [17:51] CarlFK, for future reference, write that command down somewhere [17:52] ManDay: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromUSBStick [17:52] airtonix: I used to have my own FAQ piece of paper... i lost it... makes me sad... *grumble* [17:52] Ok, I'm stuck how can I copy to 6 dvd repositorys to an external hard-disk, add them to sources.list and still be able to download updates?

[17:55] vertix: Well, you probably need to boot without that CD in it and then you would see info from dmesg |grep CD [17:55] ?? [17:55] Flannel: why not? [17:55] hm... any good guides out there on how I could do this? [17:55] must I state the obvious? [17:55] NemesisUK: Because it's not in the repositories?

[18:18] either case i tried looking around in the forums trying to figure out how to get wammu to work for my nokia e71 [18:19] Loganhoup: ok, if you try it as root, then obviously that's not it. To get sound working most of the time, you first need to know for sure that the correct driver is loaded.

[18:19] Loganhoup: althought the driver might not support everything. [18:19] Pulseaudio is also very fragile for me. [18:20] Crashes are common. [18:20] Alsa was atleast stable. [18:20] so noone can help me? [18:20] mibmib: my sound is working, sort of.

[18:26] i JUST upgraded to jaunty have never used ipv6 [18:26] gtuy: don't mix upwho makes the card vs. what chipset they use [18:26] TU use ifconfig, i think it tells you if ipv6 is active or not [18:26] flintwingel: Oh, so Broadcom is the chipset, then? [18:27] n8tuser: i do have an ipv6 address [18:27] flintwingel: So what does b43-fwcutter do? [18:27] but why would that mess up dns resolutions [18:27] i've had issues with ubuntu and dns stuff before. [18:27] i can't make my ubuntu connect through wireless, how do i check what i need and where do i get it? [18:27] spaid I did it, it said I was not using any proprietary drivers [18:27] .. eh. [18:28] TU do this so you dont use ipv6 modules.. in /etc/modprobe.d/aliases #alias net-pf-10 ipv6 [18:28] ballie: atheros based?

If something is broken, file a bug (hopefully in a more civil manner). [18:34] jrib: thats fine. [18:34] ThePhoenix... hyperthreading IS dual core... it tricks ubuntu into thinking you have 2... its fine... leave it [18:34] but i don't know what is wrong.

Reboot helps often :) [19:58] daniftodi: that kernel is not available in ubuntu [19:58] then sudo update-initramfs-u to change the boot screen but I do not succeed, please help [19:58] daniftodi: please stop repeating the same question [19:58] can someone help me please???? I can't login back to ubuntu - I get to the login screen - insert the login and password - but get an error saying smth about " ending my previous session in less than 10 seconds and thus this should signify that there is an installation problem or there is not enough space on the disk" and there is enough space.. and it suggests me to go to the limited gnome session and solve the issue... have no clue... when I do so I get anothe [19:58] macvr: no, I mean everything blocked, mouse and even clock in the upper bar [19:58] amanda-b, you still around? [19:58] nixuser, no idea, try to burn iso onto cv with 2x or 4x [19:58] Hello guys. I'm trying to clean up a little bit and get rid of useless aplications. When I try to remove EVOLUTION it wants to remove a whole lot of essential stuff such as gnome-panel, too. why?!? [19:59] should resolve your problem if sums are matching [19:59] eagle1201: i'm not sure of this,.. ask the question again to the room and pls be more specific about ur problem [19:59] ManDay: it is a bit problematic to remove apps installed by default, it is better not to do it... [19:59] she_dyed, yes. unzip requires a script to do large quantities. i'm not a bashist, so i'm doing it the hard way. [20:00] ManDay: just remove the icons if you really don't like the app [20:00] ok [20:00] a few more things till my server is 100% setup :D [20:00] bnt: waht is the size of the disk? [20:00] hacktolive: well but i dont want the bollocks sitting somewhere in the back. why can i not remove it? this dependency doesnt make any sense does it? [20:00] can i try to break the dependency? [20:00] mind if i pm you amanda-b [20:00] Guys I need some help with 9.04 that keeps blocking my PC. Suddenly nothing works any more, neither mouse nor clock in the upper bar!! [20:00] yes, i mind. [20:01] how do i set it so that it sends mail in the backround [20:01] ManDay, you can try to go to synaptic, and from there you can control which packages you remove [20:01] I like linux [20:01] right now it doesn't load a page until AFTER it sends teh message [20:01] dm-mod is gone in the new kernel? bug? [20:01] eagle try to instal OS [20:01] so any page that invlolves sending an email, takes like 2 min to load [20:01] rimvis: reinstall the whole OS??? [20:02] eagle yes [20:02] classic thats synaptic telling me that it wants to remove gnome-panel and a whole lot of other stuff when i try to remove evolution! [20:02] ManDay: true... there must be some kind of problem... on my PC that does not happen... consider reporting a bug [20:02] rimvis: hell.... will be a mess!! [20:02] who uses sendmail, and apache2? [20:02] Mack_: I do [20:02] rimvis: isn't there another way to fix it? [20:02] ManDay, did you try mark for complete removal or mark for removal? [20:02] hm a bug. you think restarting and recreating dependencies will solve the problem? [20:02] eagle what problem is and what os you install [20:02] Classic: in both cases it happens [20:03] good evening all [20:03] ManDay, then no idea, sorry [20:03] I have a problem with my notebook [20:03] rimvis: pls dont suggest reinstalls, it needs to be the last option... eagle1201 waiting for the room to asnwer before u consider reinstall [20:03] ikonia: you know how to make it so that it sends the email AFTER it loads the page? [20:03] Mack_: email and a web page have nothing to do with each other [20:03] Mack_: they are seperate programs [20:03] how do i force synaptic to recalculate dependencies? [20:03] hi how can i do a Local Area network in my ubuntu ?? [20:04] ikaros: i mean sendmail [20:04] rimvis: I have Ubuntu 9.04. During my normal use it "freezes" [20:04] Mack_: sendmail has nothing to do with apacke [20:04] so like when u register, it sends a confirmation email [20:04] Mack_: register what ?

Everything was working fine with 8.04 and 8.10, it all came with 9.04 [20:08] Mack_: as I said, thats nothing to do with apache/sendmail, that's wordpress having a dependency [20:08] I guess nobody ever had problems with Xsession...

If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) [20:11] problem with maximus on jaunty on my netbook. installed regular jaunty, installed maximus and windows are opening up maximised, except there isnt a titlebar [20:11] RHorse downloading mint linux now, looks nice, thanks [20:11] and I don't know anything about ubuntu so I need a little bit of patient [20:11] Mack_: do a helo local send on your mail server, see where/why it is slow [20:12] mm classic and i can not doing the other form [20:12] fidelitysystem, wireless?

I've never messed around with an encrypted file system, you'll have to find the module for that and apt-get it [20:26] alsamixer for instance only works sudoing [20:26] pcfascist: *nod* [20:27] pcfascist: then chroot in, apt-get, do my magic, etc?

[20:34] sirMajid, read it as in visually read it? [20:34] mrwes: then there is really no point, why would I need a notification if I just open it? [20:34] in debian, i can determine which runlevel it starts up in by looking at /etc/inittab. How do I figure that out in ubuntu? [20:34] do drives in a raid-0 have primary partition tables?

I mean like scanf in C [20:35] Patrick904, well I leave my running in send it to the notification area with Alltray [20:35] what is my runlevel?

[20:36] F3k0r: 8.04 is an LTS release [20:36] I mean it doesn't make any sound [20:36] F3k0r: It's an LTS. Supported for 3 years on the desktop. Vs 9.04, which is only supported for 18 months (so you'll have to upgrade sooner) [20:36] the sound is still not working [20:36] ahh [20:36] davidquesada: it doesn't work in any programs? [20:36] F3k0r: For server, 8.04 is supported for 5 years. [20:37] still dosnt work [20:37] so, more ppl in favour of 8.04... [20:37] How can i block all incoming connections from ip range 10.3.* on all ports in iptables or firestarter ? [20:37] F3k0r: I'd still advise you to get 9.04, it's easy to upgrade and 9.04 is alot better than 8.10 [20:37] hello, I'm trying to install jaunty on my computer and during the boot after I just finished installing it goes into a kernel panic [20:37] help omg im so desperated [20:37] If I want to add the bottom panel (programs running) to the top bar, what do i add?

You can upgrade straight to 10.04 when it comes out, etc. [20:38] davidquesada: go to System > Preferences > Sound and select "PulseAudio Sound Server" for each of the dropdown menus except the last [20:38] grkgeek, why not just use /etc/hosts.deny ?

[20:50] denuze unetbootin.sf.net [20:50] !chown [20:50] mrwes, why? i realize the purpose is so i can write to it, but with USB drives and my old HDs i used to have i never needed to do that [20:50] The linux terminal or command-line interface is very powerful.

[20:57] isnt a Quesada a cheese tortilla wrap you buy at Taco Bell? [20:57] hi there channel :) [20:57] ok [20:57] hey, I read that to downgrade from ext4 to ext3 you first mount with "-o noextents", you copy the files around (cp $1 $1.tmp && mv $1.tmp $1), and then "use tunefs to clear the INCOMPAT_EXTENTS flag". Any idea how to do that last step? [20:57] Good Afternoon, I was wondering if someone could lend me a hand with an annoying graphical issue i've been having. Ever since I upgraded to 9.04 the performance of video's over the internet when full screened has been very choppy. It worked fine in Intrepid. I've attempted to revert back to the old graphics drivers but this has not helped any. I am using an Acer Aspire 5315 with an Intel Graphics Chipset. [20:58] hey can I give u my mail?? [20:58] anyone from aussie land [20:58] toothy: something like this: auto rw,user,noauto,exec,utf8 0 0 [20:58] davidquesada: why?

[21:06] shyam: you can install tftp and use it in a shell to test the tftp server [21:06] Bakuchrris: use SAMBA [21:06] !samba | CarlFK [21:06] CarlFK: Samba is the way to cooperate with Windows environments.

[21:08] alsaconf lets you select the soundcard and reset it [21:08] sometimes necessary in older versions of alsa [21:08] dougl, yes.. all packages for ubuntu are .deb (but alsa all packages for debian that may be incompatible) [21:08] but suppsedly, if it don't work, that means you don't have the right driver [21:08] Can some body help me with wine and pulse? [21:08] any intermapper alternative for controlling linux and windows servers? [21:08] _PiLoT_: see http://www.supergrubdisk.org/ cd boot disk to reload grub MBR and stage 1.5 use the 'r' key to reload.

[21:20] chris_, what about sdl-devel libs [21:20] or else you don't have an xserver. [21:20] EricJ1186: commands are case-sensitive [21:20] anyone have any idea why flash is so slow when I run on Linux, but when I run it through WINE, it runs fine? [21:20] I used the Live CD, and installed it to the free space I had [21:20] it worked fine until I updated drivers then restarted [21:20] Anyone? I'd really like to get backing up my files. Does anyone have any idea why I'd suddenly be getting the BusyBox shell? [21:20] EricJ1186, ok, then.... is it server or regulat edition?

[21:22] yes [21:22] I do that [21:22] lstarnes: Last time I was in it it installed a mass amount of updates, but I'm pretty sure I rebooted back into Ubuntu just to make sure it all worked out. [21:22] and I stay in the terminal [21:22] no sdl-devel in synaptic [21:22] no GUI [21:22] >> [21:22] EricJ1186, then do this commend [21:22] sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start [21:22] _PiLoT_: that sound more like installing.

But when i ran the live cd i could not connect to the internet [21:22] gdm is your login screen [21:22] noone? How do I change the runlevel with kernel-parameters? With Debian its "single 3". What is it with ubuntu or upstart? [21:22] hmm.. the paritioning documentation says that hard disk can only have 4 primary partitions? I think that's the problem currently, the windows install used all the primary partitions already. So how can I get 7 partitions for my disk? :) [21:22] i need some help. I am about to install ubuntu 9.04 on a new laptop. It has a wireless internet connection.

[21:29] twoguy, the least that should happen is you should be able to see BLACKBERRY mount on your desktop when you plug it in [21:29] now it has my user name at the Desktop (in the desktop directory), but I am still in the terminal [21:29] Kai_wp: heheheeee that is too much :) [21:29] ezu5t, yeah.. at least I hope so.. It's 22:29 here.. I'll try tomorrow.. (bye) [21:29] Kai_wp: the command "dd" makes an exact byte copy of a partition if that is what you are looping for [21:29] EricJ1186, did you do sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start [21:29] Hi. [21:29] it doesnt have a micro sd in it [21:30] yeah, it ran the GNOME display manager [21:30] I have a process running, Xorg, that uses a shitload of CPU during idle. [21:30] i know if i had that i could put stuff onto that so i could have music and movies [21:30] Any suggestions? [21:30] twoguy, ah, i see, what do you want to do with it and your pc? [21:30] ewsubach: Well, I want to only copy the files I really want, I have 300GBs of data, about 60-100 GBs of that I really need to copy. [21:30] how do I stop X to install the nvidia drivers? [21:30] MindVirus: are you using visual effects? [21:30] and now I have a cursor clicking after "Eric@eric-desktop:~$" [21:30] i want to see if i can update it or change it [21:30] lstarnes, aye.

[21:30] CarlFK: yup vmlinuz is there!! thanks!!!! [21:31] any ideas what it might be? [21:31] Kai_wp: well, if the only way to get the files you want is to hand pick them, then that is the only option...unless they follow a certain naming convention or a particular folder [21:31] MindVirus, first dont swear than type the name of the process taking a lot of cpu [21:31] hi, i've got a major problem. i installed jaunty and said yes to an encrypted home directory, and now i'm locked out of my data! i can log in just fine, but it says the passphrase is incorrect when trying to mount the home directory! [21:31] and then i can change stuff on the the phone or is it two differnt things? [21:31] Pirate_Hunter, what? [21:31] I need some chmod help, I came across a utility similar to a website form looks, but you enter the permissions in the form, it outputs the chmod permission(numbers). Does anyone know of the name of it so I can use? Or at least an easy guide to follow? [21:31] EricJ1186, so you had a login screen? [21:31] like phone memory and such [21:31] I didn't swear. [21:31] ... [21:31] MindVirus: that depends on what your drive is [21:31] no [21:31] it never left the terminal [21:31] jrib: that didnt help [21:31] how do I stop X to install the nvidia drivers? [21:31] Pirate_Hunter, but I'm about to. [21:31] I already did. [21:31] ValentineX: you added an extra - at the end [21:31] twoguy, no, it will act as add in memory, but you will be able to copy songs and stuff on it === j^j^ is now known as j^ [21:31] Thanks, but I don't want your help, Pirate_Hunter. [21:32] my login part was at the very beginning when it booted into the terminal, I logged in, typed that line, then it said "Starting GNOME display manager" and that was it [21:32] lstarnes, what do you mean, "drive"? [21:32] EricJ1186, so after you put int that command nothing happenned? [21:32] ewsubach: No they don't have any naming convention or anything, I need to copy them manually, but without access to the normal GUI, I imagine doing it with the terminal would take a ridiculously long amount of time. [21:32] eh i guess that's what i need anyway [21:32] macvr, works a charm, even closes the "about pysol" window you have to click ok on [21:32] MindVirus: oops, I meant driver [21:32] I typed in startx after that and it said this [21:32] Ahh, nvidia. [21:32] con-man: do you really need to stop it, (i.e. do you need the manual install?) [21:32] lstarnes: plugins-main and plugins-extra are available [21:32] bnt i'm not sure about that error, try asking the room [21:32] after a certain amount of time, I can't open new connections to the internet whilst old connections remain open [21:32] Kai_wp: okay, so you just need to copy, but no GUI..am I getting it right? [21:32] ienorand: beta drivers [21:32] I've a problem to install a ubuntu server version on a fujitsu siemens primergy P250: the installer can't install grub.... the raid controller is a a Mylex model: AccelereRAID 160.

[21:32] preciated === phlexonance is now known as Guest55195 [21:33] twoguy, no problem [21:33] CarlFK: there is isolinux/vmlinuz of 1.9mb and tftp says "tftp too many packages" should i do a ln -s on that? [21:33] lstarnes, nvidia (I didn't highlight you past time so I'd assume you didn't see it). [21:33] Kai_wp: I will private message you [21:33] ewsubach: Ok, thanks! :D [21:33] "Xinit: no such file or directory (errno2): unable to connect to X server" [21:33] EricJ1186, interesting [21:33] Hi, I m using the fglrx driver for my hd 4850 grafic card. 2D/3D acceleration is good unless I activate the normal visual effects! Is there a magic option for the xorg.conf file so keep the acceleration when activation the effects? [21:33] then "Xinit: No such process (errno3): server error" [21:33] lato peoples [21:33] con-man: Ok, drop to terminal with ctrl+alt+F2 then use "sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop" I think that should work...

[22:11] (this maye incorrect) but i thought Virtal Box had a Virtual Hard Drive so it wouldn't show up anywhere except on the Virtual Machine [22:11] lstarnes, thanks! [22:11] xidarian: I think it might try to autodetect it [22:12] Mew-Chan: it still takes disk space [22:12] xidarian - sweet thxs [22:12] Mew-Chan: the virtual disk is a file on the physical disk [22:12] grkgeek: yeah give it a quick look through. just be aware that it resets when you shut down, so you have to write a script to restore settings at start up. good luck! [22:12] My gnome-terminal doesn't refresh the screen often enough anymore, e.g. when I quit a document paged with "less", the terminal screen doesn't clear. What can I do about it?

That's the only one I'm dealing with. The other 3 are backups for various things. [22:20] ienorand: so it's prbably 10.4 [22:20] I didn't think about killing bash directly [22:21] yep yep [22:21] might cause more problems [22:21] ye [22:21] Roasted, maybe because they share it, im not sure now [22:21] so did you see the process running under bash?

[22:51] I'm sure it is something really simple, but I have no idea what to do [22:51] vock: dunno...maybe it still has some formatting on it...it is possible to hide the iso image on the usb, so try zeroing out everything on the usb disk [22:51] haha [22:51] okay [22:51] is amsn same as msn? === neomantra is now known as seele_ [22:51] How would I set umask to 027 on /media/external?

Gparted isn't working? [22:51] i have msn [22:51] RHorse: .rmvb , all formats will run slow, this problem also happened in 8.10 thats why i started using linux mint, but i thought 9.04 may have fixed the problem [22:51] Ok!My account is umbertovolonte@hotmail.it [22:52] !amsn [22:52] Sorry, I don't know anything about amsn [22:52] so you are logged in on tty1? [22:52] !info amsn [22:52] hi [22:52] amsn (source: amsn): An MSN messenger written in Tcl. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.97.2~debian-2ubuntu2 (jaunty), package size 266 kB, installed size 880 kB [22:52] that's what it said when I first logged in [22:52] tty1 [22:52] vock: you can use the command line "dd" and use as input /dev/zero, but be very careful of what device you use this on. [22:53] The only thing you can do is get the latest RealPlayer and cross your fingers. It's not a very popular format these days, I hardly come across it any more. [22:53] vock: make sure you only do it to the usb and not the hard disk otherwise you lose your OS [22:53] ewsubach: yup, thanks [22:53] vock: also... [22:53] no RealPlayer alternative ??? [22:53] maybe sudo xorg -configure [22:54] vock: if you are trying to make a boot USB, you shouldn't have to use Gparted [22:54] thraxsa: I don't think there is a RP alternative. [22:54] sudo: xorg: command not found [22:54] that would be one of the very few linux alt's of anything :) [22:54] vock: you should make it using a tool like you said usb-creator and then boot from that [22:54] how can i return how old a file is (in days) with no other extra info [22:54] ok i added you now [22:55] I just killed nautilus.. how do I restart it to get my desktop icons back? [22:55] sorry, Xorg, case sensitive [22:55] i found here help? [22:55] so i'm using nautilus as an image previewer for a large number of directories (about 100). is there a way to get it to traverse the directories and generate thumbs without having to individually click each directory and wait? [22:55] scunizi: type "nautilus" in a command line [22:55] okay that did something [22:56] I can't read it all but the last three lines say [22:56] my ubuntu desktop box does not start the gdm anymore.. I think the cable cord was unplugged.. the gdm starts but a clock mouse cursor appears and it does nothing... I try killling it and starting it again, but same issue, any clues on this? [22:56] how do I list all package required to install one ? (e.g. need for network-manager) [22:56] which directory are you in right now? [22:56] ewsubach: that works except when I close the terminal windows it closes nautilus [22:56] Number of created screens does not match number of detected devices. Configuration failed [22:56] ddxSigGiveUp: closing log [22:56] scuzini: type "nautilus &" [22:56] ewsubach: it says i need to reformat it to Fat32, which is what i tried to do with gparted [22:56] ewsubach: same result [22:57] it says "Using config file: '/home/eric/xorg.config.new'" [22:57] scuzini: i know why...its because when u close the command line that started nautilus, it is a subprocess and that is destroyed too === i is now known as Guest82793 [22:58] ewsubach: so outside of rebooting how do I fix it? [22:58] I put in a new sound card - Sound Blaster VX 5.1 - Ubuntu does not like it until you boot into windows first .... [22:58] scunizi: when closign a terminal window.. get in the habbit of using the 'exit' command. Not hitting the X close button. :) [22:58] * JavaAtom agrees with Dr_Willis [22:58] Dr_Willis: why [22:58] I am in no directory on the command [22:58] hey [22:58] Dr_Willis: i use ^d, myself [22:58] I'm new to IRC [22:58] ValentineX: because "exit" ensures that the shell logs out? [22:58] Help [22:58] at least, it says "eric@eric-desktop:~$" [22:59] scuzini: i personally don't know the answer, someone else might. if you reparent the process to init, it will stay open....i don't know how to do this [22:59] ValentineX: if you want everything you just ran frim that terminal to be forced to close.. go ahead and use X.. if you want them to stay running use exit [22:59] owais: ask your question [22:59] Dr_Willis: I could do that but when starting with nautilus & to put the process in the background I don't get another terminal prompt to type exit [22:59] thats your home directory [22:59] EricJ1186: that's your home directory (~) [22:59] ah ok [22:59] scuzini: or keep the command line and just miminize it. sorry wish i could help more [22:59] whenever you see ~$ its home [22:59] @ValentineX I just want to learn IRC [22:59] if you see # [22:59] its root [22:59] scunizi: you type nautilis & [22:59] ah [22:59] cool [22:59] then tyoe exit.. [22:59] okay, so which directory should I be in? [22:59] owais: try #freenode [22:59] EricJ1186, Xorg -config xorg.conf.new [23:00] or somthing basic here is confused.. :) [23:00] quit [23:00] vock: so you booted from the usb and it asks you to create a partition...which then asks to reformat. correct? [23:00] Dr_Willis: ok.. that worked.. thanks! :) [23:00] owais: type /help [23:00] owais: If you're new to IRC, google it up and search based on what your client is.

So you need to access the network setup utility and try to enable. [23:14] vock: either one will work fine. unetbootin has some options if you don't have the iso, that's why I like it [23:14] ValentineX, ?

[23:15] my bad guys. [23:16] as of now, I am going to have to reinstall, again... but what do I do with that driver [23:16] josh_boudreau: sned me the list of your file in a private conversation [23:16] Estereta: you can use Add and Remove programs [23:16] EricJ1186 - I would be tempted to start a fresh install [23:16] scunizi: if the device dosent exist you may need to load the proper module. [23:16] JavaAtom -> nope, thats not the result of the command i asked for [23:16] Maybe ValentineX can "vomit" some usefull commands [23:16] can someone tell me how i rollback to the previous (non9.04) version of Amarok? [23:16] ewsubach: ok thanks! [23:16] why is that by default .asoundrc does not exist? [23:16] underdog7, why ???? [23:16] Estereta: any time [23:16] well the fresh install isn't a problem [23:16] n8tuser: bear with me -- I had my copy/paste mess up on me. [23:17] JavaAtom -> im just came in, you posted your sudo lshw -C network results? <-- post this [23:17] OK, try this: type sudo iwconfig ath0 essid name_of_router key 1234567890 mode managed [23:17] r3c0n: because its not needed? you could make a blank one if you wanted. [23:17] it's the fact that once I do, I cannot get any type of graphics past low [23:17] Classic: i do not know commands i am new to linux i only remember one command sudo aptitude install appname [23:17] anyone have any clue why my USB keyboard stops working randomly in jaunty? [23:17] JavaAtom: OK, try this: type sudo iwconfig ath0 essid name_of_router key 1234567890 mode managed [23:17] http://pastebin.com/d670e91df [23:17] thraxsa, because the new version is buggy as hell for me [23:17] n8tuser: http://pastebin.com/d670e91df [23:17] Hiya everyone [23:17] hi starcannon [23:17] it's this damn Nvidia Accelerated Graphics Driver [23:17] RHorse: you want me to use ath0 and not wlan0? [23:17] then you dont have to harass others ValentineX [23:18] Is there an ubuntuforums.org mod around, or is there a channel where I can meet them? [23:18] I installed NOTHING else but that this past time, and that destroyed my boot [23:18] yes [23:18] ohhh eric so you are using nvidia? [23:18] hey [23:18] Dr_Willis: the module is installed according to synaptic.. and Handbreak discovers my device but won't import anything.. Avidimux doesn't allow me to activate the 1394 input because of access.. weird because in Dapper and 8.04 it worked seemlessly .. 8.10 is hic-upping for some reason.. [23:18] yeah [23:18] can someone give me a list of torrent clients for ubuntu? [23:18] Classic: :-s i did not mean that i was surprised that u know [23:18] two Nvidia Geforce 250 GTS [23:18] EricJ1186, maybe the problem is that you have 2 cards, and they somehow get you screwed up [23:18] underdog7 - I had mega problems in Amarok until I changed the Xine audio output to alsa ... [23:18] I disabled the second one via the bridge [23:18] have you already installed the driver? [23:18] myself: Transmission, rtorrent, ... [23:18] ValentineX, :) [23:18] Transmissions not doing good [23:18] my thing messing up... [23:18] anyone know why hcitool fails to probe any of my bluetooth devices? the service is running and im using these devices, but i need to know the mac of one of em.. [23:18] Hello .. I am hosting my website on an ubuntu-server and of course since it's not a dedicated server I can't install openoffice using default installation. I need to use only command line to convert doc to pdf .. what must I download exactly to install only a command line openoffice with custom installation (under /home/user) [23:18] I installed the one Linux suggested; the propreitary driver [23:19] Auuugh no! Super + R made me zoom in!! How do I zoom out ;_; [23:19] myself: i have heard running utorrent in WINE is just as good as on windows [23:19] omigosh [23:19] scunizi: could try running avidumux as root. (not a great idea) but it could be some special group rights are needed for the device. Ive not used one in years.. [23:19] why would i do that lol [23:19] ValentineX, just I played around with Arch linux, and there you have to install and configure everything from console [23:19] JavaAtom -> okay, you are using ath5k.. now do you have essid set on your interfaces file or you used iwconfig to set it? [23:19] n8tuser: using iwconfig. [23:19] Classic we found EricJ1186 problem [23:19] Dr_Willis: that's worth a shot.. [23:19] thraxsa, how do you i do that? [23:19] myself: nothing wrong with utorrent...only problem is can't get it natively on ubuntu [23:19] so dual video cards did it? [23:19] he installed the proprietary driver for nvidia [23:19] hm [23:19] Severian, 2 cards?:) [23:19] right, that's what I said [23:19] Classic: i do not like commands thats why i often get mad at my buntu [23:19] Whenever I start my computer, it tells me that my disk has an error and I need to enter the root password to make a maint shell, or press ctrl+d. What's the command I need to use on the maint shell to fix my disk? [23:19] Severity1, 2 cards? [23:19] anyone have like a big list of torrent clients? [23:19] mostly ubuntu related, as the virtualbox is on jaunty, can I install to a VM from an ISO image, or do I need to burn and mount it [23:20] How do I change the network settings so that the NetworkManager Applet will manage my network devices? [23:20] oh didnt see that coming === roywes is now known as mophire [23:20] Anyone? Kind of a nusiance being able to see only 1/8th of my screen [23:20] from the Hardware Manager; that was what linux suggested [23:20] well, commands are good, once you get used to them, they actually make life alot easier ValentineX [23:20] okay, so which ones should I install/can I install them from the terminal? [23:20] JavaAtom -> something like iwconfig wlan0 essid "Myeesid" ? [23:20] you can install to a vm using iso [23:20] n8tuser: yes [23:20] commands make life a LOT easier... [23:20] RHorse: I tried what you suggested and it did not work. [23:20] wait what? === jft-away is now known as jftsang [23:21] EricJ1186: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=20849 "Cards not POSTing properly in multi-card..." [23:21] what happened exactly JavaAtom? [23:21] RHorse: "Access point: Not-Associated" [23:21] well Classic [23:21] Severity1, why should proprietory drv break his x? [23:21] JavaAtom -> then what happens when you do sudo dhclient wlan0 ? [23:21] RHorse: The commands worked, but I was unable to get a DHCP address. [23:21] he should atleast install the correct driver for his video card [23:21] I found the correct drivers on the Nvidia site too [23:21] n8tuser: I get a "DHCPDISCOVER on wlan0 to 255.255.255.255 port 67 interval 7" and so on. [23:21] JavaAtom: please don't jump ahead [23:21] JavaAtom -> or use ath0 or whatever your wifi nic name is [23:22] well when i install nvidia drivers on my box i use the package from nvidia or i use envy [23:22] not really sure how to install them, but should I go with that route and look it up? [23:22] RHorse: alright, done. Ran iwconfig. [23:22] Severity1, ah, so recommended ones are only for integrated cards? [23:22] yep [23:22] SHOT [23:22] AH [23:22] :) [23:22] okay, no problem then [23:22] live and learn [23:22] JavaAtom -> can you paste your /etc/network/interfaces file? [23:22] if its a proprietary card it is adviseable to use the driver made by the vendor [23:22] let me reinstall, and get back to you guys [23:22] thanks a lot [23:22] JavaAtom: ok, it said Access Point Not Assoc, right? [23:22] (mine was) [23:23] haha, man, you are unstoppable [23:23] Thanks Severity1 [23:23] how do you find the mac address of your bluetooth device? its connecting fine and i can use it but im trying to tweak it more and i need the mac.. hcitool cant obtain it for some odd reason [23:23] because when you install the driver from ubuntu it wont let you have preety graphics and wont maximize the use of the card [23:23] EricJ1186: i think proprietary drivers are not subject to the bug I posted, so there is still hope [23:23] no prob Classic [23:24] RHorse: yes [23:24] r3c0n -> try lshw ? [23:24] here's hoping, give me like ten minutes, I would like a walk through to install the drivers I have - I don't want to screw that up [23:24] r3c0n, or hcitool scan [23:24] is that cool? [23:24] EricJ1186, :) [23:24] JavaAtom: just to be sure type iwconfig again same result as before or different? [23:24] ok [23:24] n8tuser: http://pastebin.com/d10a40527 [23:24] or probably there ar some ioports or interrupt issues with your two cards??? === nicolas_ is now known as Guest96425 [23:24] Classic, hcitool scan results in following [23:24] thanks for the help [23:24] wao weather reports in my ubuntu panel [23:24] how can i get a pid of a command i run? for instance i run a exe and instantly output the PID of this process [23:24] Device is not available: No such device [23:25] do a cat /proc ioports or interrupts [23:25] do a cat /proc/ioports or interrupts [23:25] Hello [23:25] RHorse: [23:25] see if both youyr cards are listed [23:25] RHorse: http://pastebin.com/d2f3515aa [23:25] JavaAtom -> will you have both eth0 and this wlan0 on same subnet? i suggest only one at a time [23:25] Hello .. I am hosting my website on an ubuntu-server and of course since it's not a dedicated server I can't install openoffice using default installation. I need to use only command line to convert doc to pdf .. what must I download exactly to install only a command line openoffice with custom installation (under /home/user) [23:25] n8tuser: I'm hoping to have eth0 offline, but then I would not be able to talk here. [23:26] yaris123456789: use the pidof command [23:26] JavaAtom -> then add an entry to that interfaces file for you wlan0 [23:26] n8tuser: how so? [23:26] JavaAtom: ok, now try this, type sudo dhclient ath0 [23:26] hello how can i ics on ubuntu? [23:26] !ics [23:26] If you want to share the internet connection of your ubuntu machine with other machines in the network see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/InternetConnectionSharing - You may also use !firestarter: http://www.fs-security.com/docs/connection-sharing.php [23:26] JavaAtom -> just like your eth0, but add wireless-essid xxxx to that wlan0 paragraph [23:26] I want to install Ubuntu Server 64bit Version on my Server ( IntelXeon 2,66Ghz, DualCore). The Install CD reports me: This kernel requires an x86-64 CPU, but only detected an i686 CPU. Unable to boot - please use a kernel appropriate for your CPU. [23:27] r3c0n, is your bluetooth enabled on pc and device you are scanning for? [23:27] ewsubach: but i run several instances of the same program. i need to get the unique pid of each [23:27] hi! [23:27] yes Classic its working flawlessly [23:27] How do I change the network settings so that the NetworkManager Applet will manage my network devices? I am connected to the network, but NetworkManager says "device not managed" for my connection. [23:27] your installer is incompatible with your core architecture [23:27] yaris123456789: it automatically returns the pid of all processes [23:27] hm... are they connected atm ? r3c0n [23:27] ive got 3 different bluetooth devices connected right now.. keyboard, mouse and wireless headset [23:27] try using a 32bit [23:27] hello brothers, $RANDOM give random numbers what is the command to specify random letters from a-z ? [23:27] yes they are Classic [23:27] yaris123456789: so if you have more than one it will list them all [23:28] well, i think you might have to disconnect to scan for mac address [23:28] RHorse: "No DHCPOFFERS received." [23:28] ewsubach: but how will i distinguish which pid belongs to which when it gives the entire list? [23:28] hi! [23:28] n8tuser: how would I add the wireless to the interfaces system? [23:28] helper i believe only numbers are spewed out by random, so you need to do some kind of translation [23:28] can I ask your help? I get this errors at login - previous session ended in less than 10 seconds, ... dsplay /.xsession-errors > - /etc/gdm/Xsession: Beginning session-setup - settingIM through im-switch for locale = ro_RO startIM through etc/X11/xinit/xinput.d/all_ALL linked to /etc/X11/xinit/xinput.d/default mkdtemp: private socketdir: permission denied; .......... config server problem > usr/lib/libgconf2-4/gconf-sanity-check2 exited with state 256 ... d [23:28] ewsubach: really all i need to do is run a program spit out its PID. keep doing this for multiple instances of the same program [23:28] JavaAtom -> like your line 9 and 10 [23:28] hi its me again .sorry but had to go and see to the kids,is pirate hunter there and did you get my reply,didnt know i couldnt go back to where i left so if you answered im afraid i missed it could you possibly repeat thanks [23:28] n8tuser: "iface wireless-essid Lair"? [23:28] r3c0n, try to disconnect one and do hcitool scan [23:28] ok [23:28] jaunty [23:29] Hi, my webcam has been working for the last while (internal, dell m1330) in Jaunty. Worked last week, and now it doesn't show up in /dev/video* anymore. Any ideas? [23:29] JavaAtom -> but instead of eth0, use wlan0 and insert a line wireless-essid XXXX [23:29] michael__: it appears he isn't. What is your question? [23:29] n8tuser, i mean i want to do random letters like put $RANDOM[a-z] . it output like abdsdsmcd something like that [23:29] ewsubach: do you know what i mean? pidof will just return all PID with the same program name [23:29] n8tuser: So, that'd be "iface wlan0 inet dhcp wireless-essid Lair" ? [23:29] how can i ics (internet connection sharing) on ubuntu 9.04 ? [23:29] yaris: try using pstree -p. it shows a tree of processes and its pid [23:29] JavaAtom -> affirmative [23:30] anyone else having their USB keyboard freeze randomly? [23:30] JavaAtom: OK, try this: type sudo iwconfig ath1 essid name_of_router key 1234567890 mode managed then sudo dhclient ath1, then repeat for eth1 and see if you get it to work. Other than that, I don't have any other suggestions. [23:30] yaris123456789: i know what you mean, but sometimes simple things are complicated to do... [23:30] r3c0n, I have a bluetooth gps, so when its not binded with pc that command gives me output like this: 00:1C:88:30:0F:60 Qstarz GPS [23:30] JavaAtom -> off course the wireless-essid is on another line [23:30] it shows the child and parent in a nice tree heirarchy fashion [23:30] n8tuser: ah, that would be important [23:30] cryptk no, mine works ok ! [23:31] Hello :) [23:31] RHorse: So, I need to repeat what I did for wlan0 for eth0? [23:31] Classic, didnt work for me. i tried disconnecting one and trying [23:32] JavaAtom: no, I think eth0 is your hardwired connex, right? So for ath1 and eth1 [23:32] r3c0n, i never used mice and keyboards, but are they discoverable? [23:32] yaris123456789: you would need to use a complicated command and pipe it or something [23:32] they should be [23:32] I'm sorry the question but it is giving one instalation error of ... FSCK it cant even ... go to the partition place ... in the instalation [23:32] RHorse: I don't have an eth1 or an ath1, I have wlan0 and that it. [23:32] any ideas? :| [23:32] RHorse: **that's it. [23:32] BrisSat: I have a G15, haven't set upi the special stuff on it yet, but after a few minutes of use, the keyboard stops responding and and new USB devices plugged in aren't detected [23:32] How can I send a command to be executed "on the gdm tty" , it happens every so often that both metacity and compiz fails, and I get stuck with an operational, but useless tty7 (no interaction), is there any way to pass a "metacity --replace" command to it, from tty1, not having to restart x completely? [23:32] i just need the mac address and that certainly exists for all bluetooth devices otherwise how will the frame know its source and destination [23:32] hm... do u have hcitool installed? [23:32] Yes, but wlan0 is not going to work. You need the ath or eth, afaik [23:32] ya [23:33] ihab@ICE:~/Desktop/gyachi$ hcitool scan [23:33] Device is not available: No such device [23:33] r3c0n, hm.. dont know, google it [23:33] RHorse: ... I don't have that interface. And I can't create it afaik. [23:33] ehh havent had much luck.. thought id try here [23:33] thanks for your help [23:33] RHorse: holy crap, it worked now [23:34] JavaAtom: usually, the ath0 or whatever is assigned automatically at boot. Sometimes, Ihave seen it work when initialized with iwconfig and dhclient. But play with it after a fresh boot and see if you can get it to work following the steps I showed you.l [23:34] RHorse: all I had to do was type "sudo dhclient" instead of "dhclient wlan0" [23:34] how can i ics (internet connection sharing) on ubuntu 9.04 ? [23:34] JavaAtom: isn't that what I said? [23:34] r3c0n, make sure the devices are turned on to aware state when you do scan [23:34] yaris123456789: you would need to do something along the lines of "commandname -options | tee pidof commandname -options" [23:35] I need help. I installed Mint (which I like because itsw small) and another linux system. Why I see the, in the brub menu w/ Mint i get something about busy box [23:35] r3c0n: "lsusb -v"? ( haven't read your prior issue) [23:35] coler: your issue is in Mint or Ubuntu? [23:35] yaris123456789: that doesn't work exactly, but something like that. i wish i could help more, but i don't know [23:35] if my computer is infected, will the infection cause performance failure? [23:35] JavaAtom: now type iwconfig and pastbin results, please. [23:35] Linuz2009: this again humm [23:36] ewsubach: how can I use GParted? [23:36] Linuz2009: it might, but infections are very rare in ubuntu or any other linux distro [23:36] Estereta: you installed it? if so, start it up and i'll instruct you further [23:36] ewsubach: i've already done it [23:37] is there any way of telling the grub menu whuch hard drive mint is on. I think pclinux changed something [23:37] hi lfaraone,been trying to put ubuntu onto my desktop,it installs ok and runs ican get onto the internet i can play games look at photos and everything else but when ishut down and then come to restart it comes up grub loading then comes up crc error and stops i have used a genuine ubuntu disc from ubuntu i have done a net download i have had it as the only os i have had it installed inside windows but every time i close down an [23:37] d restart it comes up with the same crc error ihave done a disc check ok i have checked my hard drive ok i have defragmented ok i have updated my bios ok but now i am stumped [23:37] is there a way of searching for os [23:37] coler: update the menu.lst [23:37] coler: no [23:37] Linuz2009: it is rather unlikely that your Ubuntu system will have any malicious programs installed in it, unless you install yourself, or have no firewall and a really bad User account password, and someone brakes into your computer, which again is pretty rare [23:37] Estereta: it should list all the partitions...find the one you want and select it on the bar [23:37] how [23:38] coler: what OS installed the grub bootloader ? [23:38] ewsubach: I've selected it [23:38] hi. [23:38] ok is there a way to tell which hard drive has what os, in other words where is the os id kep [23:38] coler: what OS installed the grub bootloader ? [23:38] Estereta: at the top there should be a resize option, click that [23:38] ubuntu [23:38] I killed mixer_app for accident. How can i get mixer_app back? [23:38] ewsubach: I can't, it's like desactivated [23:38] coler: so in /boot/grub/menu.lst on your ubuntu install update the file to point at the mint install [23:39] michael__: ouch. sorry, I've got no clue. [23:39] Estereta: okay, that means you have to click one of the partitions to the size of it and resize that one to make it smaller. then you shuld be able to resize the one you want. [23:39] how do i do this [23:39] thanks anyway [23:39] ewsubach: there is only one of them which I can click [23:39] Estereta: to the *side of it [23:39] Estereta: it is one big bar? [23:40] coler: open /boot/grub/menu.lst in a text editor and look at the format to get an idea [23:40] ewsubach: wait i don't know the meaning of bar === janne is now known as Skiessi [23:41] ewsubach: it has the same size, i don't see the difference [23:41] Estereta: i mean the thing that says something like "/dev/sda1" and then it has the size. it should be an outlined rectangle [23:41] * Codex_ thinks creating dualboot system is too difficult :( [23:42] Codex_: why? [23:42] because partitioning fails [23:42] <_chun> I'm having problems with audacious, in 9.04 - when I open it, it doesn't appear in the task-bar at all, and when I try "audacious --play" it outputs music, but it's extremely crackly. I've tried apt-get remove audacious --purge but even after reinstalling it, it seems to remember my playlist, and the same problems occur [23:42] Codex_: I guess your doing something wrong, or your hard disk is bad [23:42] Estereta: what i am asking is, do you see the rectangle that has "/dev/sda1" (or something like that text)? [23:42] yes [23:43] the eeepc I bought have 4 partitions already and cannot do another primary partition for the same disk [23:43] anyone here knows about sql-ledger? [23:43] apt [23:43] Estereta: is there only one rectangle or are there more? [23:43] no [23:43] apt-get remove --purge audacious [23:43] Codex_: oh an eeepc hummm well I don't know much about those, since don't own one [23:43] hrm. WoW and Neverwinter Nights have crashed my system. my entire screen is filled with lines of random colors and, surprisingly, another X server starts with gdm. i can login but i can't get back to my old session, even with Ctrl+Alt+F7 [23:43] <_chun> Severity1 - as I said, tried that [23:43] ewsubach: there is a big one and then inside this there is a part coloured in yellow [23:43] i suspect the issue is that i'm on 64-bit [23:43] Codex_: what are you trying to do/ [23:43] ? [23:44] RHorse: Sorry about that -- check it out, don't have a wifi address. [23:44] I killed mixer_app for accident. How can i get mixer_app (the small speaker near clock) back? [23:44] Estereta: the yellow part is the space you used so far, the other color is the space you have not used [23:44] n8tuser: any suggestions on what madwifi drivers might work? [23:44] I have one of those "Click on a window to force the application to quit. To cancel press ." [23:45] what is the name of the kernel source package? =/ [23:45] Estereta: i want to make sure I understand the problem...right now you only have 1 partition..you said you made a partition too small [23:45] how do you install compiz plugins [23:45] ewsubach: and why are all the bars the same? there are no differences between the space used in every thing [23:45] sebsebseb: well, I'm just running the installation, and I cant figure out how to create the partitions so that it could create necessary linux partitions. [23:45] you said apt-get remove audacious --purge [23:45] Codex_: what's on it right now? Xandros? XP? [23:45] ok i have it open, now what do i do [23:45] hey whats the best way to install a tar.gz source file? [23:45] sebsebseb: xp [23:45] Codex_: you want to dual boot? [23:45] Estereta: you're confusing me [23:45] !tar | mysel [23:45] mysel: Files with extensions .tar, .gz, .tgz, .zip, .bz2, .7z, .ace and other archive file formats can be opened with file-roller (GNOME) or Ark (KDE) - Also see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FileCompression [23:45] ewsubach: sorry my English is not very good [23:45] myself [23:45] what do i do [23:46] how do you install compiz plugins [23:46] i see so much [23:46] just extract it regularly?

[23:49] Estereta: you mean /dev/sda2?

[23:52] in ./configure [23:52] Codex_ if you want to keep your current XP installation you have to delete the restore [23:52] Estereta: what is the name of the one that is next to sda2 and not inside of it? [23:53] sda1 [23:53] Codex_ if you want to keep your restore you have to delete your current XP partition [23:53] myself: you can find out in ##linux as well, since what you want to do is not exactly distro specific [23:53] Estereta: can you resize sda1?

[23:53] RHorse: I have done it five times now -- "No such device" [23:54] jp_sf: oh, I can resize the primary partitions and delete the small primaries? [23:54] Codex_ be aware that if you do so you will not be able to restore the eeepc [23:54] OK, I would reboot, JavaAtom and then retry with ath0, ath1, eth1 using the iwconfig and dhclient procedure aI showed you.

I see some articles on how to compile a custom kernel, but I'm just not sure on why? What benefit does that give you? [23:57] BrixSat: Probably not. [23:57] *-display UNCLAIMED [23:57] description: VGA compatible controller [23:57] prappl93: I'm not real sure. I know it's possible but you may want to google search that.

[23:58] sf_jp: I'll try that partition editor and see if it helps with this. [23:58] xirrin: and those same people tend to do it in other distros that aren't Ubuntu [23:58] xirrin: the kernel Ubuntu provides is good enough for most users, or more than good enough even [23:58] can somebody help nightdrever? he has problems with his video card which is not being detected, nor used, by the system [23:59] I from Brazil [23:59] can someone tell me how to test and see if my tvout is working as a seperate screen...nvidia-settings sees it and it turns black when i start x so i think its working just not sure how to test it [23:59] sebsebseb: I'm trying to get my ATi card to to work with 9.04, and I saw a posting on the ubuntu forums and at the top of the article the author suggested that you configure and compile a custom kernel and then to install the ATi drivers like they listed. I'm probably not going to do it, but I'm curious about why you would want to. What added benefit would it give you over just installing drivers?
